[00:00]  * zykotick9 likes #debian's beer better ;)
[00:01] <Bashing-om> zykotick9: Some people when hung, want a new rope too . :)
[00:02] <manuel_> zykotick9, another thing, is a good idea to ask several times?, i mean one time each half hour for example? just to see if new people who can solve my problem are in the chat
[00:04] <zykotick9> manuel_: regarding re-asking, i think in one of #ubuntu's factoids it suggests waiting a 1/2 hour...  i think that's really way to short (more so in other channels then #ubuntu!) to actually need some of the people to change...  but ymmv (your milage may vary) ;)
[00:04] <egoflux> yo yo
[00:04] <Bashing-om> manuel_: Yes .. that gets you an atta-boy .
[00:04] <genii> manuel_: Asking every half hour or so would not be considered spamming or overly annoying
[00:05] <zykotick9> ^^ s/to actually/you actually/
[00:05] <manuel_> cool :) thanks
[00:12] <Pici> manuel_: have you installed any packages to try to get the printer to work? or are you just trying that command
[00:12] <Pici> ?
[00:13] <mike001> Is anyone familiar with this guide: http://askubuntu.com/questions/55868/installing-broadcom-wireless-drivers ?
[00:15] <squinty> mike001,  nothing in Software and Updates -> Additional Drivers ?  iirc, driver offers for the b43's are installed from there.  Someone please correct me if I am mistaken

[00:23] <nick_name> I have three monitors and want to be able to launch a program from a terminal in the middle monitor on either the left or right monitors
[00:24] <EgoAleSum> hi! I’m looking for an advice for setting up a server for my home. It will have two different purposes: file server and virtualization. For the virtualization part, it will have 3 VMs with gui). my question is about the file server part: would you run it in on the host directly, or in a VM, or in a LXC? The file server part needs direct access to 3 disks (in a raid-5 configuration)
[00:27] <cognitiaclaeves> I'm trying to install Docker 1.9 - 1.10 in Ubuntu 14.04, but it will only install docker 1.5. I'm followed this guide: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/ubuntulinux/
[00:27] <autofsckk> EgoAleSum:  so the fileserver is gonna be of what kind? nfs?
[00:27] <EgoAleSum> autofsckk: SMB and AFP. but it should be irrelevant. on the same file server I’m also putting miniDLNA
[00:28] <Bashing-om> !info docker trusty
[00:29] <EgoAleSum> cognitiaclaeves: are you installing “docker-engine” or “docker”?
[00:30] <autofsckk> wow, half the things you mention im not familiar with, but i would maybe put the fileserver directly on the server, and just running vms apart from it, but im not an expert, it just sound reasonable that way or thats the way i would do it
[00:30] <Bashing-om> cognitiaclaeves: ^ indicates to me that the docker PPA is not installed .
[00:30] <cognitiaclaeves> EgoAleSum: docker. Is it docker-engine now?
[00:30] <cognitiaclaeves> Bashing-om: But I installed it.
[00:30] <EgoAleSum> cognitiaclaeves: “docker” is the one from the Ubuntu repo. “docker-engine” is from the Docker repo. read the guide :)
[00:31] <OerHeks> apt-cache policy docker-engine will tell
[00:31] <autofsckk> that "virtualizing" mania is very mmmm i cant understand it completely
[00:31] <EgoAleSum> autofsckk: for the file server, i’m not really thinking of a VM, but more like LXC maybe? putting it on the bare metal would have the advantage of direct access to the disks, but virtualization (even just LXC) makes it safer
[00:32] <EgoAleSum> autofsckk: it’s easier to manage because if the file server fails, I can just rebuild that part of the server (just replace one VM rather than rebuilding the entire server). and it’s possibly safer because there’s more isolation
[00:32] <cognitiaclaeves> EgoAleSum: Ug. I can't believe I didn't notice that.  Thanks!
[00:32] <EgoAleSum> at the extreme, I’d run every application in a separate VM, or at least container
[00:32] <EgoAleSum> anyone else has an opinion on bare metal vs LXC (or VM) for the file server?
[00:32] <autofsckk> something like that a guy from my work told me, we run ganeti over here and i really cant see yet the advantages he told me about :/ i think its more work
[00:33] <Hydr0p0nX> it's more work until something blows up maybe ?
[00:33] <autofsckk> but linux is designed like that, i mean, if something blows it just blows that part and not the server
[00:33] <autofsckk> that idea of virtualizing is so windows
[00:34] <EgoAleSum> autofsckk: if you run in a VM and you get pwned, only that VM is compromised
[00:34] <autofsckk> not really
[00:34] <EgoAleSum> autofsckk: ??
[00:34] <autofsckk> but you surely get cracked with all that sysadmin stuff done automaticly and without knowing whats going on
[00:36] <autofsckk> EgoAleSum:  the good part of this OS is that you have multiples ways to do it :D and you decide what fits better
[00:36] <manuel_> Pici, i installed two packages from the canon webpage, but in the 15.10 version i didnt need those packages, it was plug and play
[00:37] <ubuntu> hello? please stop
[00:37] <EgoAleSum> autofsckk: my daily job is technical sales of cloud computing. I once met with a guy, CIO in a university, who told me (seriously believing that) that “virtualization is a fad”. only reason why he doesn’t get fired it’s because he works in the public sector :)
[00:37] <ubuntu> why see the pic?
[00:38] <dannymichel> Any compiz setting or something that will disable the ability to move a window beyond the left launcher and panel,
[00:38] <autofsckk> EgoAleSum:  do you know salt?
[00:39] <EgoAleSum> autofsckk: salt?
[00:39]  * zykotick9 notes, "there is no cloud, just other people's computers"
[00:39] <autofsckk> saltstack
[00:42] <EgoAleSum> autofsckk: you can tell me all the tools you want to run on bare metal, but VMs offer more density and save people lots of money
[00:42] <EgoAleSum> zykotick9: heard that so many times :)
[00:43] <zykotick9> EgoAleSum: i'm glad... i guess fsfe's campaign is working ;)
[00:44] <EgoAleSum> zykotick9: however, let’s be clear that the “cloud” i sell is IaaS and PaaS… not SaaS
[00:44] <EgoAleSum> i do have concerns about SaaS. that’s why i’m building my own server and not using, say, Dropbox. but IaaS/PaaS is different
[00:44] <zykotick9> EgoAleSum: we're OT ;)  take care
[00:44] <EgoAleSum> zykotick9: right, sorry for the OT
[00:46] <autofsckk> need help with fixing initramfs
[00:47] <autofsckk> i dont know about that :/ i know mkinitcpio, how can i fix it?
[00:51] <Bashing-om> autofsckk: We can run update-initramfs manually in 'verbose' mode  so it tells us what it is doing, and examine that to see if it gives clues. sudo update-initramfs -vu -k $(uname -r) |& tee /tmp/initrd.log .
[00:52] <autofsckk> Bashing-om:  i already did that https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromSD  im trying to put a3
[00:54] <autofsckk> Bashing-om:  i already did that https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromSD  im trying to put 3 partitions on a 8 microSD, boot /var /  from a working server, but when i chrooted to it and did the update-initramfs and that it just broke my servers init jajajaja :/ it was not written to the microsd but to the server itself, but i tried to boot from liveusb and do it again but it doesnt work
[00:55] <autofsckk> ill go to my house now, i think tomorrow ill give it a second chance, ill just c&p what you told me and try tomorrow, thanks :
[00:57] <autofsckk> and that was almos exactly what i did that broke my servers initramfs :/ jajajaja well whatever, see you tomorrow
[01:02] <MannyLNJ> i have an hp printer on my ubuntu systrm but my osx laptop won't see it. Help please
[01:03] <imthenachoman> hey guys. i am reading a lot of conflicting articles online. what are y'alls thoughts on the need for UFW on a home ubuntu desktop/server (with ssh and apache) behind a router (NAT) configured with unobvious port routes? like port 1234 to the server's port 80\
[01:04] <EgoAleSum> imthenachoman: using “unobvious port routes” doesn’t really give you more security
[01:05] <EgoAleSum> if crackers have time, they just do portscans
[01:05] <imthenachoman> EgoAleSum: ..good point
[01:05] <imthenachoman> i just hate the idea of setting up UFW cause i just know it'll break stuff
[01:05] <imthenachoman> :/
[01:05] <EgoAleSum> plus, you’ll make your life much more complicated. for example, certain networks (e.g. corporate, schools, etc) block all traffic on ports different from 80/443
[01:06] <EgoAleSum> (to change ports, you can just use port forwarding in your router, btw, you don’t need UFW)
[01:06] <imthenachoman> this server is ONLY for me. only i will need to access it from outside
[01:06] <Inocuous> what is an example of something that breaks with ufw imthenachoman ?
[01:06] <imthenachoman> EgoAleSum: i know. i am saying with that setup i am wondering if i need ufw
[01:06] <EgoAleSum> imthenachoman: then use strong authentication systems
[01:06] <EgoAleSum> imthenachoman: you always need firewall, regardless.
[01:07] <imthenachoman> Inocuous: i shouldn't say break. i should say that i have to configure each web hosted app on my computer like nzbget
[01:07] <imthenachoman> Inocuous: just a pain to do. not impossible. i'm just lazy
[01:07] <MannyLNJ> [Question] How can i test my VPN from inside my network to see if it id drtup cottrctly?
[01:07] <EgoAleSum> imthenachoman: another great idea is to add another small server in your home (e.g. a RPi) and then connect only via VPN
[01:08] <imthenachoman> EgoAleSum: i had thought of that..
[01:08] <EgoAleSum> imthenachoman: with “VPN” being either a full-fledged P2S IPSec tunnel, or even just a SSH tunnel
[01:08] <EgoAleSum> if it’s just for you, that may be the safest option
[01:08] <EgoAleSum> although you’ll find some issues. for example, in my home server I have ownCloud installed and remote access is enabled; i couldn’t use the apps for the phone if i were requiring a VPN
[01:10] <imthenachoman> ah. i forgot about OC. that is another thing i will have on it
[01:11] <imthenachoman> on a side note, there is some command you can run that takes you through a text menu to select what happens when apt-get upgrade comes across update notes. like it can "more" them so you have to press q to continue or it can skip them, etc... anyone remember that command?
[01:12] <EgoAleSum> imthenachoman: aptitude?
[01:12] <imthenachoman> EgoAleSum: no, it came preinstalled on a fresh ubuntu 14.04 install.
[01:12] <imthenachoman> like configure or something
[01:13] <MannyLNJ> I thought I disabled my laptop sysoending when I closed the lid but it still does. How do I stop this?
[01:14] <yourname3> yo dawgs
[01:14] <yourname3> oops
[01:14] <Tuxfuk> what's everyone doing?
[01:17] <LazyUser69> Does ubuntu create a swap file if /swap is never mounted during installation?
[01:18] <EgoAleSum> LazyUser69: check with “free” if there’s swap enabled
[01:19] <Tuxfuk> i believe so. you can always make/enable one
[01:19] <Tuxfuk> mkswap (device)
[01:19] <Tuxfuk> swapon (device)
[01:20] <Rhorse> MannyLNJ: look in the /etc/pm directory for config files which cover that. Or there may be a bios setting to turn this on/off. HTH!
[01:20] <Rhorse> On second thought, MannyLNJ, ISTR a setting in power settings for closing lid....
[01:22] <precise> Hey guys, I just installed 16.04, all is smooth. I didn't enable LUKS. I have all partitions on my SSD except for /home which is on an HDD. I know I can't install LUKS post-install (without data destruction), but I was wondering if I could backup data, unmount home as root, format the /home partition as ext4+LUKS, remount, and restore backup. I want to do this so I don't have to do full reinstall. Is this
[01:22] <precise> possible?
[01:22] <precise> Sorry for the wall of text :/
[01:24] <EgoAleSum> precise: yes it’s possible. ensure you have many backups
[01:24] <crazyhorse18> everytime i copy stuff to my usb stick, ubuntu says   stuff like copied 3gb out of 3gb 0 seconds left
[01:25] <crazyhorse18> and sits there for 5 minutes .. have they fixed this in 16.04 yet?
[01:25] <crazyhorse18> it was broken in 12.04 / 14.04 and 15.04
[01:26] <precise> EgoAleSum, thanks for your response. In theory could I run a recurive copy from the root of my /home (I don't know if that's the proper way to say it) onto an external HDD (or 3) and do the reverse during restore time?
[01:26] <EgoAleSum> precise: yes, use rsync for that
[01:26] <psusi> crazyhorse18, do you have like 16 gb of ram or something?
[01:26] <crazyhorse18> psusi: 32gb
[01:26] <psusi> ahh, I can see that then
[01:27] <precise> Thanks for the rsync tip EgoAleSum, I'll look into it!
[01:27] <precise> crazyhorse18, what's the 32GB for?
[01:27] <frostschutz> precise, backup home, reinstall with luks, restore home... how much space do you have on your SSD? home should go on SSD too, HDD is for movies
[01:27] <crazyhorse18> ram is super cheap, why not have lots :D   also i bought the computer in 2012
[01:27] <psusi> afaik, currently the copy process keeps writing as much as the kernel allows it, which with 16 gb of ram, most likely would easily accept 3gb, and then flushes all of the dirty buffers to disk at the end, which can take a while when you have *that* much buffered up
[01:28] <psusi> I built my computer in 2011 or 2012 and only have 4gb ;)
[01:28] <crazyhorse18> but occasionally i run a windows 7 / xp and windows 10 vm for testing.. but to be honest i never really get past 16gb
[01:28] <crazyhorse18> it's nice not to run out
[01:28] <psusi> only time I feel like I don't have enough is when I run VMs
[01:28] <crazyhorse18> what's that got to do with the usb problem?
[01:29] <psusi> just that when accessing a fat formatted removable disk, usb or otherwise, the current policy is to allow normal caching, then flush at the end
[01:29] <precise> frostschutz: 128Gb (real: 120GB) I do a lot a virtualization with KVM so I try to preserve space on the SSD for root and the like. What files would you place in /home that need SSD speeds?
[01:29] <crazyhorse18> psusi, ah i see.. so basically it dumps the whole lot into memory .. then starts writing to disk?
[01:30] <precise> frostschutz: also I don't want to reinstall because initiall install was a bitch on this machine and I'd rather not go through that again. That's also why I didn't initially use LUKS just to avoid as many speedbumps as possible + to lessen down time.
[01:30] <precise> *initial
[01:31] <EgoAleSum> precise: agree with frostschutz in general. your home contains a bunch of files that are used by the system too (e.g. Firefox configuration, etc). you could gain a lot from putting the home on the SSD. also, SSDs are safer
[01:31] <crazyhorse18> precise: installing always takes me about 2 - 3 entire days
[01:31] <crazyhorse18> and i have 20 files detailing every command that needs to be run :/
[01:31] <precise> crazyhorse18: yeah I took notes this time around, but each time new issues keep popping up :/
[01:32] <crazyhorse18> haha. yeah
[01:32] <precise> I was hesitant to install 16.04 on this machine, but it actually went smoother than 14.04 :P
[01:32] <militiaspack> Hiya
[01:32] <frostschutz> precise, doing LUKS as an afterthought is possible (even in place); it's just so much harder than reinstalling
[01:32] <precise> how so frostschutz, I'm willing to learn, and I already have extensive backups :P
[01:32] <precise> ?
[01:33] <iguano80> im having problems trying to install my canon mg5520 on ubuntu gnome 16.04, before in 15.10 the installation was plug and play but now it doesnt work... :(
[01:33] <militiaspack> Could someone in here help me? I am on 14.04 on a chromebook. kinda new to this whole ubuntu thing and I can't seem to get steam working. Been trying all the google fixes and none seem to be working :( Any assistance?
[01:34] <iguano80> anyone else have this problem with the printers?
[01:36] <Tuxfuk> iguano80: check out cups
[01:37] <zykotick9> frostschutz: <just a sidenote> but to "properly" do luks, it would require zeroing out all current drives...
[01:37] <militiaspack> Noone can help me? :/
[01:37] <psusi> crazyhorse18, yes, assuming you have enough free ram
[01:37] <iguano80> Tuxfuk, yes, im trying with this command..
[01:37] <iguano80> sudo /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p MG5500LAN -m canonmg5500.ppd -v cnijbe://Canon/?port=net&serial=F4-81-39-17-09-D2 -E
[01:37] <iguano80> lpadmin: Unable to copy PPD file.
[01:38] <precise> EgoAleSum: How much space do I need for a full ubuntu install. (eg. /home, /, the-whole-9-yards) I like to do virtualization with KVM, and after restore I already have 200GB filled on my HDD and 18GB of my 120GB SSD filled. I'm a week into this install...
[01:38] <zykotick9> frostschutz: <additional info> doesn't really matter with ssd drives...
[01:38] <Tuxfuk> iguano80: you can do all that via your webbrowser
[01:38] <subscious> hello. I try installing google chrome on xubuntu 16.04. the software app won't actually install the downloaded *.deb file. What am I doing wrong?
[01:38] <precise> Realistically would 120GB be good for multiple VMs and a full Ubuntu install? EgoAleSum
[01:38] <squinty> iguano80, https://localhost:631/   -> Adding Printers and Classes -> Find New Printers   might be worth a shot
[01:39] <Tuxfuk> militiaspack: what's the issue?
[01:39] <iguano80> ok, let me try that
[01:39] <Tuxfuk> what are the errors?
[01:39] <squinty> subscious,  install gedi  ( sudo apt install gebi) and then highlight the chrome.deb file in your file manger -> open with gdebi
[01:40] <squinty> subscious, the software center is buggy
[01:41] <iguano80> squinty, ok, y did what you tell me and the browser just say... Not Found, its look like something is missing
[01:41] <militiaspack> Tuxfuk Ok well I try to run steam and it says steam needs to install additional packages such as libgl1-mesa-dri-lts-quantal:i386 and libc6:i386 and libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-quantal:i386 so I let it go but after a min or so it says unable to locate package for all 3 after
[01:41] <tgm4883> probably easier to just install it from command line
[01:42] <tgm4883> militiaspack: which chromebook
[01:42] <subscious> thanks squinty
[01:43] <squinty> iguano80,  make sure you copied/typed it correctly.
[01:43] <squinty> subscious, yw
[01:43] <iguano80> https://localhost:631/ ??
[01:43] <militiaspack> tgm4883 http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/chrome-os-devices/XE303C12-A01US-specs
[01:43] <squinty> iguano80,  yes
[01:43] <iguano80> it works but when i click on Adding Printers and Classes is when the browser just fail
[01:43] <tgm4883> militiaspack: you aren't going to be able to run steam on that
[01:44] <militiaspack> Why? tgm4883?
[01:44] <blu_> where am I?
[01:44] <tgm4883> militiaspack: because it's ARM based. I'm pretty sure that steam doesn't run on ARM
[01:44] <squinty> iguano80,  ok then it's not finding anything.  maybe someone else will offer some advice
[01:45] <militiaspack> tgm4883 oh :/ well I just can't get those certain packages to install....
[01:45] <iguano80> squinty, thanks :)
[01:45] <squinty> iguano80,  wish I knew more :)
[01:45] <iguano80> me too haha
[01:45] <tgm4883> militiaspack: even if you could get steam to install (which I doubt), there wouldn't be any games for you to play
[01:45] <nicomachus> tgm4883: what
[01:46] <tgm4883> nicomachus: what what?
[01:46] <militiaspack> tgm4883 Well I wanna use it for chatting and such not for games really
[01:47] <tgm4883> militiaspack: ah, ok, that still doesn't satisfy the issues of not having those other packages available
[01:48] <militiaspack> well idk how to get them tgm4883
[01:49] <tgm4883> militiaspack: Even if you manually downloaded and forced them to install, they wouldn't work as they aren't built for your arch
[01:50] <Rhorse> subscious: there is a bug in sofware center that will be addressed in a few days about installing debs. You can afaik still install debs from the command line using apt-get and dpkg.
[01:51] <Rhorse> BTW, this bug should be addressed in /topic until addressed, IMHO.
[01:53] <tgm4883> militiaspack: I'm not trying to be a jerk about it, but you'll need to buy a better laptop if you want that to work. ARM has it's place, but this isn't one of them
[01:55] <squinty> Rhorse,  imho, in his particular case (and of quite a few others in here lately pertaining to the software bugs) he was better of just installing gdebi (which checks to see that all dependancies are satified) which dpkg doesn't.
[01:55] <tgm4883> squinty: apt does
[01:55] <tgm4883> or so I'm told
[01:56] <Rhorse> squinty: tgm4883 OK, thanks for the info. :)
[01:56] <squinty> tgm4883, he was installing chrome.deb package
[01:56] <Rhorse> Might want to include this in the /topic, what you think, ops?
[01:58] <squinty> Rhorse, #ubuntu-ops  :)
[01:58] <tgm4883> squinty: yea I know, someone was talking about it a few days ago in here. Apparently apt can install local packages now (TBH, it's about time, yum has had that for quite awhile)
[01:58] <imthenachoman> anyone know how to disable ipv6 in ubuntu 16.04. i can't seem to find any info online
[01:58] <squinty> tgm4883,  ok thanks for the heads up on that!
[01:59] <tgm4883> squinty: yw, I'm not looked into it yet, but I imagine the man page has info on how to do it
[01:59] <squinty> imthenachoman,  network settings  ipv6    ignore
[02:00] <squinty> tgm4883, trying to give more homework, eh?  ;-)
[02:00] <imthenachoman> squinty: do you konw the command line option to open network settings?

[02:04] <dillon> Rhorse no never, I was just curious
[02:05] <imthenachoman> squinty: well that is odd. getting a "did not find a connection with UUID" error
[02:05] <Rhorse> dillon: this is a family channel. :)

[02:48] <bobby_> hello what is the post it ! ?
[02:53] <tennety> hi there! first-timer, looking for some help with a broken 15.10 upgrade
[02:54] <bobby_> hi, guys, I was wondering if one of you could help me with a problem I have been having on and off everyday since I have upgraded from 15.10 to 16.04... While working on my desktop arbitrarily the screen will drop and go back to the login screen and I'll loose all my work...? this is really frustrating... I have heard from someone it must be an x.org error so I checked my syslog but can't exactly find the xlog error... I am running gnome2 btw... it just
[02:54] <bobby_> crashed about 7 or 8 minutes ago I have logged it too at http://paste.ubuntu.com/16198017/
[02:57] <mars_> hello should i install 32 bit or 64 bit ubuntu on a laptop with only 2gb of ram but a 64 bit procie?
[02:58] <bobby_> mars_: i would say you would be fine with 64bit or ubuntu mate for a laptop
[02:58] <bobby_> mars_: some ppl prefer that
[02:59] <mars_> bobby_: will the weight of the programs memory-wise be different?
[03:00] <bobby_> mars_: not sure probably you need to ask someone more familiar with running a laptop, I've only told you what I've read about before :)
[03:00] <mars_> okay thanks for the input
[03:02] <Hydr0p0nX> mars_: the only time you're going to see an appreciable difference in memory utilization is for 64bit compiled applications, this is due to needing 64-bit pointers to memory addresses
[03:03] <tennety> after upgrading to 15.10 I'm constantly booted into a tty1 and apt-get fails to resolve any sources. help?
[03:04] <squinty> mars: fwiw, if you are a chrome web browser user, it no longer is being released in 32 bit
[03:05] <blackened> mars_: 64 bit - 64 bit ubuntu generally outperforms 32 bit even witch < 4gb of ram
[03:05] <cfoch> hello
[03:06] <cfoch> If I start to contribute to Ubuntu, how high would be my possibilities to get a job in Canonical?
[03:07] <squinty> cfoch,  #ubuntu is for support... maybe ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:08] <dax> #ubuntu-offtopic doesn't know either, ask Canonical
[03:08] <cfoch> via e-mail or is there a channel?
[03:08] <OerHeks> cfoch, start first, then ask
[03:09] <tennety> is this the right channel to ask about 15.10 upgrade issues?
[03:10] <squinty> yep
[03:10] <bobby_> hi, guys, I was wondering if one of you could help me with a problem I have been having on and off everyday since I have upgraded from 15.10 to 16.04... While working on my desktop arbitrarily the screen will drop and go back to the login screen and I'll loose all my work...? this is really frustrating...

 crashed about 7 or 8 minutes ago I have logged it too at http://paste.ubuntu.com/16198017/
[03:10] <cfoch> OerHeks, yes, but I would like to know which projects are the most required for Canonical. I have been contributing to GNOME. And it would be really interesting to have a job and writing free software at the same time.
[03:11] <Bashing-om> tennety: Helps if you state the particular issue you are facing .
[03:11] <cfoch> What about jujucharms for example?
[03:12] <squinty> cfoch,  is disrespect for this channels topic part of your potential cv?
[03:18] <gshmu> I'm using disks, delete one partition, but three partition miss, (under one extended partion)
[03:18] <gshmu> How to fix it, I'm using live de
[03:18] <gshmu> cd
[03:19] <squinty> gshmu,  use gparted
[03:19] <cfoch> I wll research for myself what I can do. Thanks.
[03:19] <gshmu> thanks squinty
[03:19] <unicornjedi> hello
[03:20] <unicornjedi> is there a way to automatically get rid of config files leftover from programs I uninstalled? My home folder is getting cluttered ;/
[03:21] <davipm> anyone?
[03:21] <unicornjedi> davipm: whatup
[03:22] <squinty> davipm,  if you are testing then use #test   this is a support channel for ubuntu.  if you have a problem, then just state it and if someone can help they will respond
[03:23] <Bashing-om> unicornjedi: See if this helps: While there is no built in way to remove all of your configuration information from your removed packages you can remove all configuration data from every removed package with the following command. ' dpkg --list |grep "^rc" | cut -d " " -f 3 | xargs sudo dpkg --purge ' That only works on packages the package manager has marked as "rc".
[03:24] <tennety> @bashing-om i upgraded to 15.10 via the UI, and now I'm always booted into a tty1 terminal. `sudo service lightdm restart` takes me to a login screen, but i can never get past it, entering my password puts me back on the login screen
[03:25] <unicornjedi> Bashing-om: ill try it. :) I hope this command won't erase '/' lol
[03:26] <squinty> tennety,  art a reboot and hold down the Shift key. Press the e key on getting the GRUB bootloader menu. Using arrow keys navigate to and delete quiet and splash and type the word nomodeset in their place. Press Ctrl and X at the same time to continue booting
[03:26] <Bashing-om> tennety: Systemd better use ' systemctl enable lightdm ' to start the GUI . For now .. what results when logging into the console at the login screen key combo ctl_alt+F1 ?
[03:26] <gshmu> it's display error at Disks, fdisk and gparted it's ok...
[03:28] <tennety> trying...
[03:28] <Bashing-om> unicornjedi: Can have unforeseen side effects if the package manager in not in a consistent state . !!!
[03:29] <effectnet> i cant access a windows share
[03:29] <unicornjedi> Bashing-om: well it just removed a config file of one printer driver I unistalled so I guess its all good.
[03:30] <tennety> Bashing-om it asks for a login and password in the tty1, and I can login with my login and password and taken to my home directory. `ctrl+alt+f1` doesn't do anything
[03:30] <Bashing-om> unicornjedi: Good housekeeping . :)
[03:30] <lucas-arg> i have problems with spell checking in spanish with libreoffice in ubuntu 16.04 ive installed hunspell-es and aspell-es both and each other separate, cant get libreoffice to correct my spelling
[03:30] <unicornjedi> Bashing-om: Is the only way to remove unwanted config files from the home directory is manually?
[03:30] <lucas-arg> any ideas how to solve this??
[03:31] <xangua> lucas-arg: did you go to language settings and installed the full language support?
[03:31] <Bashing-om> tennety: Ouch ! Boot to grub menu .. can you boot a recovery kernel ?
[03:32] <lucas-arg> xangua, ive done it with spelling in system configuration
[03:32] <Bashing-om> unicornjedi: Yeah .. there is nothing less than you that will touch your /home directory .
[03:32] <lucas-arg> xangua, ive installed hunspell and aspell both and each other apart and did not get it
[03:33] <tennety> Bashing-om it lands me in the same place no matter which kernel i pick. i ran `dpkg --configure -a` and it stopped because of too many errors
[03:34] <unicornjedi> Bashing-om: oh so it's like my own 'special place'. interesting. Well if I remove a config folder/file of a program that I mistakened for a program that was uninstalled. Will it do much harm?
[03:35] <tennety> Bashing-om this is what it looks like (manually typed): http://paste.ubuntu.com/16198278/
[03:35] <unicornjedi> Bashing-om: or should I not even bother?
[03:36] <Bashing-om> tennety: Unless you can get to a terminal through some means ; we are in for a long hard road for recovery. Might be a good time to consider a fresh clean install .
[03:36] <unicornjedi> tennety: oh no man. I've been in that situation.
[03:38] <unicornjedi> tennety: So you can login with the console?
[03:38] <Bashing-om> unicornjedi: That is hard to say . generally good 'nuf to leave them alone . But good house keeping applies . best if removed if not needd .
[03:38] <Bashing-om> tennety: look'n .
[03:40] <Kartagis> ubuntu 14.04, chrome, no video youtube or otherwise, installed pepperflashplugin-nonfree, still no videos. help?
[03:40] <tennety> unicornjedi yes, and i get to my home directory. i ran `sudo apt-get install -f` and that reports dpkg errors as well. my knowledge here is very shallow :*)
[03:41] <unicornjedi> Bashing-om: Whats happens if I remove...say... blenders config file/folder. But Blender is installed. NExt time I launch blender, will it just create a new config file and act just fine or will Blender go crazy
[03:41] <Bashing-om> tennety: A prompt ! awaiting you to log in .. so do so with your user name and then your pass word . There will be no response to the screen when the pass word is entered. enter password blindly and hit the enter key .
[03:41] <effectnet> windows keeps asking me for credentials over and over for a shared folder
[03:42] <unicornjedi> tennety: hmmm what if you reinstall ubuntu-desktop... Well what do the dpkg errors say?
[03:42] <tennety> unicornjedi so run `sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop`?
[03:43] <Bashing-om> unicornjedi: Ouch .. Good question , I do not know blender . Many times in such a situation the config files are regenerated to default values .
[03:43] <unicornjedi> tennety: not yet. I still need to understand your full situation. I came to the conversation late.
[03:44] <Bashing-om> tennety: unicornjedi :: Ehat we want is a terminal to find out the exact errors .
[03:45] <unicornjedi> Bashing-om: he needs to go find the system logs right?
[03:46] <Bashing-om> unicornjedi: never hurts to read the logs . Best practice is read the logs when system is stable a few times to recognize when there is a problem .
[03:46] <sabandija> hola
[03:46] <sabandija> hello
[03:46] <Biggs2> hola
[03:46] <Biggs2> como etes
[03:47] <somsip> If I install lubuntu from the full iso, can I uninstall components of lubuntu-desktop (like, transmission) or am I better off building up from an lubuntu minimal install?
[03:47] <sabandija> soy nuevo en linux
[03:47] <Biggs2> etes
[03:47] <Biggs2> lol
[03:47] <somsip> !es | Biggs2
[03:47] <Biggs2> was gehts
[03:48] <Ben64> somsip: i'd say start with lubuntu and remove what you don't like
[03:48] <unicornjedi> somsip: what exactly are you trying to do
[03:49] <somsip> Ben64: just reading this which implies lubuntu-desktop is a meta package and wont play nice. I'm used to building up from minimal but this is for a desktop for my son
[03:49] <somsip> Ben64: er...this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2314397
[03:50] <Ben64> somsip: it is a meta package and it might say you're uninstalling lubuntu-desktop, but it will be fine
[03:50] <somsip> Ben64: easy enough to play, and if it borks I'll just build up from minimal I guess. Cheers
[03:50] <unicornjedi> somsip: are you trying to have your distro clutter free and have the distro serve like a single purpose like a 'gaming distro'?
[03:50] <somsip> unicornjedi: just seeing if the same sort of rules apply toi lubuntu-desktop as for full-fat-ubuntu, which I avoid
[03:51] <tennety> Bashing-om yes, i can log in with my username and pass at that prompt. it takes me to my home dir. that's where i've tried to run some of the commands i was talking about earlier.
[03:51] <somsip> unicornjedi: but yes, wanting a stripped down, safe install for an 8 year old
[03:51] <Ben64> i always find it easier to start with a full install
[03:51] <unicornjedi> somsip: ohh.. I see. I guess tinycore is out of the question.
[03:51] <Ben64> things get kind of wonky sometimes with a minimal
[03:52] <tennety> unicornjedi is there anything you want me to run that'll help show how deep in the doodoo i am?
[03:52] <somsip> unicornjedi: lubuntu-core seems to be similar, but that expects an existing install. Not quite the same as an install from lubuntu-minimal from what i can tell
[03:53] <somsip> Ben64: I've only done it twice with 12.04 and 14.04 after turning away from unity. Didn't have many issues that I remember. But yes, wonkiness is always a possibility
[03:53] <unicornjedi> somsip: okay i think what i would do is do a full installation of lubuntu
[03:53] <Ben64> i'm using gnome-fallback here on 14.04, installed ubuntu-mate 16.04 for my mom recently, it seems very nice ootb
[03:54] <somsip> unicornjedi: key question is, on doing that, can I remove packages (like transmission) that I don't want to be available. Without getting everything autoremoved because of the lubuntu-desktop meta package
[03:54] <unicornjedi> somsip: then use synaptic package manager.  go to >status... Then go to >install... Then remove what you don't want... this will be a fast way
[03:54] <xangua> somsip: yes
[03:54] <somsip> Ben64: I'm considering mate too as it's pretty. Lubuntu seems fast which is good. I'll give him the choice
[03:54] <unicornjedi> somsip: ooh i don't know then...
[03:55] <Bashing-om> tennety: That should not happen ! .. You should remain in this terminal until you explicity start the GUI . I do not know what I can do ??
[03:55] <Ben64> somsip: it won't remove anything you don't tell it to, but it will remove "lubuntu-desktop" meta package since you don't have all of the components anymore
[03:55] <somsip> xangua: k - seems like I'll try full lubuntu and uninstall then. I can drop back to minimal if it doesnt work out. Cheers all
[03:55] <tennety> Bashing-om, no no, the UI doesn't start, I'm still in the terminal. I'm just past the login prompt
[03:56] <unicornjedi> tennety: i see
[03:56] <xangua> Ubuntu mate has so much settings... I stayed with Xubuntu
[03:56] <grasstype>  /join #ubuntu-touch
[03:56] <somsip> Ben64: finding other confirmation of that so it'll be worth a try
[03:57] <somsip> xangua: lots of recommendations for the attractiveness of mate though. Not something I care about, but not sure if my son will go for Mate green or LXDE blue :)
[03:57] <unicornjedi> tennety: hold on i'm finding a solution for you
[04:00] <Angel1604lts> excuse me I would ask if in ubuntu 16.04  I7-3632QM the Intel Core processor (4x2.2GHz) and supported well?
[04:00] <Bashing-om> tennety: Yhen that is normal .. I can live wuth the .. your Present Working Directory will always be started as your /home . OK, from here let's see in a pastenin ' ls -al /home/Beorn | nc termbin.com 9999 ' and pass the resulting URL back here . We want to know here that "you" are authorized to access your home .
[04:03] <unicornjedi> Bashing-om: okay i'm done housekeeping. It feels so godly when my home folder is tidy
[04:03] <tennety> Bashing-om: I ran `apt-get update` then `apt-get upgrade` while i was waiting, so it may be a few minutes before i can get you that link
[04:04] <Bashing-om> tennety: That was the next outputs I wanted to see .
[04:04] <coffeeguy> hi why would i have enp4s0 and enp4s1 .. *4s3?
[04:04] <coffeeguy> i only have one network card
[04:05] <tennety> Bashing-om it's doing a ton of stuff, i haven't seen any errors so far
[04:05] <unicornjedi> tennety: thats good.
[04:06] <unicornjedi> omg i just ate a burnt tortilla chip. Why is there a burnt tortilla in this bag
[04:06] <N3X15> Okay, is there a PPA for a more up-to-date or stable KDE implementation?  Plasma's been crashing every few minutes without any interaction on 16.04.
[04:07] <Bashing-om> coffeeguy: See: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/ for that explanation .
[04:07] <coffeeguy> thank you Bashing-om :)
[04:07] <somsip> !ppa | N3X15 (search here)
[04:08] <Bashing-om> coffeeguy: :)
[04:08] <unicornjedi> tennety: is it done yeT?
[04:09] <Rhorse> What is the main diff between a ppa and a snap package?
[04:10] <ellison> hello world
[04:10] <Zythyr> I am running XAMPP on my Ubuntu. Until not it was working fine. Not Apache won't start.
[04:10] <tennety> unicornjedi: no, still going. i've been stuck like this for about a month, so i'm guessing i'm a little behind on the updates :( sorry!
[04:11] <unicornjedi> Rhorse: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/ubuntu-16-04-lts-snap-packages    I honestly have no idea. I haven't encountered a SNAP yet
[04:11] <tennety> unicornjedi for a while it wasn't resolving any of the sources either. it just resolved them after i had started talking to you guys, so i thought i'd run the updates. i didn't realize how long it would take
[04:12] <tennety> lol burnt tortilla chip
[04:13] <sqredreaper> would anyone be able to help me with a black screen boot issue
[04:13] <unicornjedi> it was so nasty.
[04:13] <sqredreaper> involving a macbook pro
[04:15] <Bashing-om> !nomodeset | sqredreaper have you seen ?
[04:15] <sqredreaper> grub 2 and nomodeset dont play well together
[04:15] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: do you see a login prompt? If so, stick around for a little... I'm helping tennety with the same problem.
[04:15] <sqredreaper> ok i have a macbook pro with dual gpu, im trying to boot into a fresh install of debian, i edited etc/modprobe.d/fbdev-blacklist.conf i believe it was and added blacklist radeon.I still can't get it to boot would anyone know why this is?
[04:16] <sqredreaper> i failed with ubunut right before this
[04:16] <sqredreaper> same issue irq error 17
[04:16] <sqredreaper> plus no boot
[04:17] <tennety> unicornjedi still going...maybe it never actually installed any of 15.10!
[04:18] <somsip> sqredreaper: if this is a debian install, you need to ask in #debian
[04:18] <unicornjedi> tennety: hmm did you force close the distro upgrade while it was in progress or something?
[04:18] <sqredreaper> i cant get any distro to work, i would love to get ubuntu to actually boot, i have them on usb drives
[04:19] <somsip> !mac | sqredreaper (this is all I know about ubuntu on a mac)
[04:20] <sqredreaper> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro8-2/Oneiric
[04:20] <sqredreaper> ... it says to use both a usb and cd
[04:20] <tennety> unicornjedi hmmm not that i can remember
[04:21] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: did you make the live-usb from a ubuntu-distro?
[04:21] <sqredreaper> yes i did
[04:21] <unicornjedi> !!!!!!
[04:21] <sqredreaper> wait
[04:21] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: what version
[04:21] <sqredreaper> not from it
[04:22] <sqredreaper> i have os x 10.10.5
[04:22] <dax> !xampp | Zythyr
[04:22] <unicornjedi> oh.
[04:22] <sqredreaper> i cant do a cd install either
[04:23] <sqredreaper> i replaced my super drive with a caddy for my original HDD and placed a SSD in the primary slot
[04:23] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: lol nevermind. I had this really annoying problem where I couldn't install any distro on any computer. Turns out if I used ubuntu 14.04 instead of 15.10 to make the live-usb it would magically work no problem
[04:24] <sqredreaper> so its a grub problem? i was able to do it with the old version of grub
[04:24] <sqredreaper> linux likes to try and load my radeon gpu instead of the intel one
[04:25] <sqredreaper> and from what ive read the new firmware doesn't support the old radeon hardware
[04:25] <sqredreaper> so black screen
[04:25] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: i have no experience in installing linux on mac so I can't really help. Sorry :(
[04:25] <nick_name_123451> How do I set the background image on the lock screen to an instance of vlc running in wallpaper mode?
[04:25] <Datz> Hi, I'm tying to get my touchpad working again. It stopped suddenly the other day. I dual boot windows, and it works there. Any ideas?
[04:25] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: hold on... it maight have to do with 'flgrx' i think
[04:26] <sqredreaper> i can edit my files using my raspberry pi if you can shoot me in the right direction
[04:28] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: okay this is a stretch and I don't know how you can accomplish this... BRB Im researching the appropiate commands
[04:28] <sqredreaper> thanks
[04:31] <somsip> !ppa
[04:31] <Rhorse> Datz: create a file called /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf. Put this into it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16198660/. Restart X.
[04:31] <Datz> Thanks, I'll try that. I think I saw that in the wiki.. should have tried it. :)
[04:32] <wikideer> eer
[04:32] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: okay heres the gist. Find a way to remove fglrx (propietary driver) and install/revert to open-source graphic drivers
[04:32] <somsip> !info python-boto
[04:32] <somsip> !info awscli
[04:33] <sqredreaper> alright
[04:33] <Rhorse> Sorry you still haven't solved your problem.... Datz
[04:33] <unicornjedi> squarecircle: wait can you tell me your full situation?
[04:34] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: wait can you tell me your full situation
[04:34] <Datz> Rhorse: np, hope we're on the way to.
[04:35] <sqredreaper> pretty much trying to boot using a 2011 macbook pro that has dual gpu, the new radeon software no longer supports the old hardware so i cant boot into any linux distro
[04:35] <tennety> unicornjedi: done!
[04:35] <unicornjedi> tennety: wow lol!
[04:35] <tennety> i'll try rebooting for good luck
[04:35] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: hmm what was the last ubuntu version that worked on your laptop?
[04:36] <unicornjedi> tennety: :) see you soon!
[04:36] <sqredreaper> 14.4
[04:39] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: hmmm do you know how to remaster an iso...
[04:39] <sqredreaper> mount and modify it?
[04:40] <tennety> unicornjedi Bashing-om i'm back in business!!! seems like it was an interrupted install somehow. thank you both so so much for being willing to help!
[04:41] <unicornjedi> tennety: HuRRAY! thats great news
[04:41] <Datz> Rhorse: ok, done. Took me a min to restart x, new to Mate.
[04:41] <unicornjedi> tennety: do some housekeeping now :)
[04:41] <Bashing-om> tennety: gj .
[04:41] <tennety> haha, yes. backing up allthethings!
[04:42] <Rhorse> Datz: working now?
[04:42] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: actually.. what happens if you plug in the live-usb into your mac?
[04:42] <Datz> nope :(
[04:43] <sqredreaper> fails to load, i used to be able to nomodeset around it but now i see the grub text with the ubuntu logo in the back and irq error 17, kernel panic and radeon error
[04:44] <Datz> Rhorse: what permissions should the file be?
[04:44] <Datz> and who should own it?
[04:44] <Rhorse> the one in /etc/X11/Xorg.conf.d?
[04:44] <Datz> yes
[04:45] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: okay thanks. One sec I'm thinking of solutions with remastering
[04:45] <RudyValencia> Hi, so I'm using Ubuntu MATE in a VMware Workstation VM, but it only comes up at 640x480. How do I get 1920x1080 without running xrandr every boot?
[04:45] <RudyValencia> rather, I want the screen to resize with the VMware Workstation window like Windows can)
[04:45] <Rhorse> Datz: it should be all root. I wonder if synaptics is actually loaded..?
[04:46] <Datz> Rhorse: ok, root owns it.. and its read for everyone, but write for root only
[04:48] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW676T1hpEA okay theres a tool for remastering
[04:48] <sqredreaper> thanks
[04:49] <Datz> Rhorse: ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad              id=15[slave  pointer  (2)] <-- does this mean it's loaded?
[04:49] <sqredreaper> jsut one problem
[04:49] <unicornjedi> ye
[04:49] <sqredreaper> i ant boot into ubuntu
[04:49] <sqredreaper> can't
[04:49] <sqredreaper> im on OS X
[04:49] <unicornjedi> don't... you have any other computers or laptops to plug the live usbs into in order to do this?
[04:50] <sqredreaper> just my raspberry pi 3 which is running raspbian
[04:50] <sqredreaper> which is debian
[04:50] <unicornjedi> i see i see
[04:50] <sqredreaper> the messed up part is this is a $2200 laptop
[04:51] <sqredreaper> but a $200 laptop works a lot better with any distro
[04:51] <Tuxfuk> format the drive and go pure linux
[04:51] <Datz> Rhorse: also TouchpadOff             = 1
[04:51] <Datz> Does that mean it's on?
[04:51] <Datz> Rhorse: can I reload a module?
[04:51] <Tuxfuk> Datz: yeah you can reload a module
[04:51] <Tuxfuk> does ubuntu have modprobe?
[04:52] <pavlushka> Tuxfuk, yes
[04:52] <Rhorse> Datz: try lspci -k Can you pastebin the results?
[04:52] <sqredreaper> i wonder if i can brew install uck
[04:53] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: hmm have you tried ubuntu-alt install?
[04:53] <Tuxfuk> you can do rmmod (module) to remove it and then modprobe (module) to add it
[04:53] <sqredreaper> i don't believe so
[04:53] <RudyValencia> My fault, I forgot to install open-vm-tools-desktop.
[04:54] <Tuxfuk> what device do you guys have for your ethernet connection?
[04:54] <Tuxfuk> is it eth0 or something like enp3s0?
[04:54] <Datz> Rhorse: http://hastebin.com/fubodufodi.sm
[04:54] <Tuxfuk> lol nice a zeon chip
[04:54] <Tuxfuk> *xeon
[04:55] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: oh wow. try that first before we try my method lol
[04:55] <Datz> enp9s0 here Tuxfuk
[04:55] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: let me link you there
[04:56] <Tuxfuk> will he need a synaptics module?
[04:56] <Tuxfuk> because that is touchpad
[04:56] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/netboot/16.04/?_ga=1.150738038.1779775581.1446873239
[04:58] <Rhorse> Datz: what does lsmod show?
[04:58] <sqredreaper> what do i do on here?
[04:59] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: is your mac 64 or 32 bit?
[04:59] <Datz> Rhorse: http://hastebin.com/ifigadobiv.hs
[04:59] <sqredreaper> 64
[04:59] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: download the amd64 image
[05:00] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: then create a live-boot usb with the image.
[05:00] <sqredreaper> mini iso?
[05:01] <sqredreaper> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/
[05:02] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: do the mini.iso ye
[05:02] <Rhorse> Datz: try this: sudo modprobe -r psmouse
[05:03] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD#A64-bit_PC_.28amd64.2C_x86_64.29_.28Recommended.29
[05:04] <Datz> Rhorse: no output, no workie
[05:04] <Rhorse> now, type sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps
[05:04] <sqredreaper> it says it wont work in uefi mode
[05:04] <sqredreaper> ill give it a try tho
[05:04] <Datz> Rhorse: Holy smokes!
[05:04] <Datz> You've done it man!
[05:04] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: do you have the live-usb ready?
[05:05] <Datz> We're all saved
[05:05] <Rhorse> did that do it?
[05:05] <Datz> That did it!
[05:05] <Rhorse> :)
[05:05]  * Datz takes notes in case this should happen again.
[05:05] <sqredreaper> i do
[05:06] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: awesome try it out. if that doesn't work. try the CD
[05:06] <Rhorse> that synaptics driver just needed to be reloaded.
[05:06] <Datz> Rhorse: that doesn't happen at reboot?
[05:06] <Datz> Or is uefi make things all screwy?
[05:06] <Datz> does*
[05:07] <Rhorse> It may not be loaded with the imps proto
[05:08] <Datz> I see.
[05:08] <sqredreaper> it didnt boot
[05:08] <Datz> Rhorse: so will this happen again?
[05:08] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: what happened?
[05:08]  * Datz reboots to check
[05:09] <sqredreaper> no bootable device, didnt work for efi
[05:09] <Rhorse> Datz: do you have a file called /etc/modules?
[05:09] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: :\ I don't use mac lol. but I'm a master at making bootable usbs on ubuntu...
[05:10] <sqredreaper> i have to use unetbootin for mac
[05:10] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: I use that too!
[05:10] <gxwang> !push 21689
[05:10] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: try the CD method
[05:10] <sqredreaper> i dont have an optical drive
[05:11] <sqredreaper> replaced it for a HDD caddy
[05:11] <Datz> Rhorse: doesn't load automatically on boot. Let me check for /etc/modlues
[05:11] <sqredreaper> SSD and HDD
[05:11] <unicornjedi> :|
[05:11] <Tuxfuk> so it was psmouse?
[05:11] <Tuxfuk> interesting
[05:11] <Rhorse> put this on a line by itself in /etc/modules: psmouse proto=imps
[05:11] <sqredreaper> ill try to live boot with the hybrid iso again
[05:11] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: one sec
[05:12] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: im watching this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXFhj7EFjkg
[05:12] <Datz> Rhorse: yes I do have /etc/modlues but no, there's nothing in there. I'll add that, thanks
[05:13] <Rhorse> Datz: that should load that module at boot.
[05:15] <Datz> Rhorse: thanks, you've been a great help.
[05:16] <Rhorse> YW!
[05:16]  * Datz reboots to see how it all works
[05:17] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: im sorry. But I wish I can help. I don't have the experience with macs to do something like this. If you are able to boot into the ubuntu minimal install then I can help you once your there. But for now I'm stuck on what to do. The only other other I can think of Is to install the old ubuntu 14.04 on your laptop. Once you have it installed... remove the flgrx driver and use the open source graphics driver,
[05:17] <unicornjedi> After that you can upgrade ubuntu to 16.04. As I said, it will be very time consuming
[05:19] <sqredreaper> I'll try that out. Thanks so much!
[05:21] <unicornjedi> sqredreaper: which method are you going to do?
[05:23] <Guest10001> ubuntu
[05:25] <Datz> Rhorse: it doesn't work until I run modprob -r psmouse
[05:25] <ishwari> How can i change my name?
[05:26] <Rhorse> Datz: and then modprob psmouse proto=imps?
[05:26] <Datz> before I run yes
[05:26] <unicornjedi> ishwari: in irc... or ubuntu?
[05:26] <Datz> sorry, I was about to type that
[05:26] <ishwari> IRC
[05:27] <ishwari> Actually this name velongs to my sis
[05:27] <ishwari> belongs*
[05:27] <Rhorse> Datz: do you have a file called, /etc/conf.d/modules?
[05:28] <elky> ishwari: /nick newnick
[05:28] <Arnav> Thank You!
[05:29] <unicornjedi> Arnav: no, you're sto;; osjwaro tp me
[05:29] <Datz> Rhorse: it doesn't appear so
[05:29] <unicornjedi> Arnav: no, you're still ishwari to me
[05:29] <Rhorse> I think that's for openrc, not systemd anyway...
[05:29] <Arnav> What? maybe restarting the client will do
[05:30] <Datz> Rhorse: I see
[05:30] <dax> Arnav: you're fine, i'm not sure what unicornjedi is on about
[05:30] <Arnav> K then
[05:30] <Datz> well I suppose worst bet I could create some startup script
[05:30] <Arnav> I am pretty beginner
[05:30] <Arnav> I am learning Python
[05:30] <Arnav> And i am 13 year old
[05:30] <Rhorse> Datz: hold on...
[05:31]  * Datz holds on for dear life
[05:31] <Arnav> Can u guys help me up with Python??
[05:31] <unicornjedi> you will always be ishwari! MWUAHAH
[05:32] <Arnav> -_-
[05:32]  * Datz is no snake charmer
[05:32] <Datz> There's probably a #python
[05:32] <Arnav> oh k
[05:33] <Arnav> HOw can join that channel?
[05:33] <Datz>  /join #python
[05:33] <Arnav> K thnx for ur support
[05:33] <Datz> maybe sheer force of will
[05:33] <Datz> sure
[05:34] <bobby_> hi, I am randomly being booted back to my login screen for no reason randomly after upgrading from 15.14 to 16.04, someone told me this might be an x.org error but I am unsure?
[05:34] <Rhorse> Datz: do you have a dir called /etc/modules-load.d?
[05:35] <kriszta3> ji
[05:37] <bobby_> is anyone here what is called a timestamp error? that came up in my syslog
[05:37] <Datz> Rhorse: I do
[05:38] <Sovereignentity> can Ubuntu be upgraded from 15.04 to 16.04?
[05:40] <dax> not directly, you need to go via 15.10.
[05:40] <hicoleri> I'm using ubuntu 16.04 with openbox with this theme: http://tinyurl.com/qclwor4. Gtkfilechooser and nautilus look very weird for some reason: http://tinyurl.com/h8lujm8. What should I do?
[05:40] <Rhorse> make a file, Datz, called psmouse.conf in that dir. Put this on one line: options psmouse proto=imps See how that works.
[05:44] <Datz> Rhorse: tried it, no go. Also Getting late, time for bed. Thanks for all of your help. I'll see what I can to tomorrow. :)
[05:44] <SparkMasterTape> What folder do I put fonts I have downloaded in to be globally accessible ?
[05:45]  * Datz rebooted)
[05:45] <Datz> night
[05:45] <Rhorse> OK, Datz. gnight
[05:45] <\LSD> https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/t31.0-8/fr/cp0/e15/q65/13123000_261488564200316_6527626464638816121_o.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9
[05:45] <SparkMasterTape> When I double click the font , there is no option to install it , it just wants to know what program I would like to use to handle it
[05:46] <Datz> I'll stay in here anyway. I need bigger log sizes
[05:46] <deniljoseph> I can't connect to my WiFi after installing Ubuntu 14.04
[05:47] <Rhorse> deniljoseph: can you pastebin ifconfig -a and lspci -k?
[05:48] <deniljoseph> Just a min
[05:48] <deniljoseph> Is that the full command tbat i should enter in the terminal
[05:48] <Rhorse> deniljoseph: 2 commands
[05:49] <fishbowlkraken> hey, okay, I asked on here a bit ago, but got chewed out because I had the wrong opinion on Pulse
[05:49] <fishbowlkraken> is there a way I can disable Pulse and just use ALSA for something?
[05:49] <fishbowlkraken> sorry, by something I mean everything?
[05:50] <fishbowlkraken> just, like, fuck pulse right now. It keeps trying to "detect" that I'm using headphones instead of speakers and switching the volume back and forth
[05:50] <scribe> fishbowlkraken: http://howto.blbosti.com/2010/04/ubuntu-make-alsa-default-instead-of-pulseaudio/
[05:50] <fishbowlkraken> which causes a random skip in my sound, because it keeps trying to switch back and forth
[05:50] <scribe> Howdy folks, I'm on Trusty 14.04 (for legacy reasons) and I have a Cannon 9000F MarkII CanoScan which is not being detected. The scanner does appear under lsusb but does not appear under sane-find-scanner. I've installed sane-utils, libsane, libsane-common and also made sure pixma is enabled in /etc/sane.d/example.conf. Any recommendations?
[05:51] <fishbowlkraken> but I've never plugged in anything, it's always running through one headphone jack, because it's a desktop, it has only one jack for this
[05:51] <fishbowlkraken> also, that article is from 2010.
[05:52] <scribe> fishbowlkraken: Why is the premise of that article not relevant?
[05:52] <fishbowlkraken> okay, see, removing pulse messes with indicator settings and a decent number of other things now
[05:52] <fishbowlkraken> because pulse is far more integrated with the system now
[05:53] <fishbowlkraken> I just want it to stop skipping around, not remove the ability for libnotify to have sounds in all GTK apps
[05:54] <fishbowlkraken> so the premise is certainly relevant, but is a problem just due to the fact that I would lose a lot of stuff in the process of setting it up
[05:54] <mrabhi> can sum1 explain to me why ubuntu package freezes and why is kde-neon launched?
[05:54] <mrabhi> I am new to linux
[05:54] <hateball> fishbowlkraken: would this be relevant? http://askubuntu.com/questions/448104/how-to-deactivate-headphones-output
[05:54] <fishbowlkraken> so instead, I'll just ask, since this is the place people go when things go all pear shaped, anyone else had this issue?
[05:54] <fishbowlkraken> Oh man. THAT looks useful. One sec
[05:54] <hicoleri> is it possible to "reload" the "debian" menu package with applications? A lot of applications are missing from it.
[05:55] <hateball> mrabhi: that's more of a discussion for #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:55] <Kartagis> ubuntu 14.04, chrome, no video youtube or otherwise. any ideas?
[05:56] <anes_> Dear Friends, when i try to scan using my canon LiDE 220 scanner got error as "gscan2pdf: sane_start: Error during device I/O"
[05:56] <anes_> any body please advise
[05:57] <anes_> gscan2pdf: sane_start: Error during device I/O
[05:57] <anes_> please advise

[06:00] <deniljoseph> Here you go
[06:00] <deniljoseph> @ Rhorse
[06:01] <GoldCraft> Anybody here i got the fucking stupidest thing in my ubuntu help!!!.
[06:01] <deniljoseph> http://pastebin.com/g1E8aC5m
[06:02] <fishbowlkraken> noooope, didn't fix it.
[06:02] <GoldCraft> it says Sorry ubuntu 16.04 has experienced an internal error                 executablepath /usr/sbin/aptd
[06:02] <GoldCraft> help somebody ):
[06:02] <fishbowlkraken> Okay, so I had a hack that fixed this, but I can't for the love of god forgot how it happened.
[06:02] <fishbowlkraken> Does anything actually go WRONG when it says it experienced an error
[06:03] <fishbowlkraken> or does it just say it hit an error?
[06:03] <fishbowlkraken> goldcraft: Like, is anything going wrong, or are you just seeing it say it's encountered an error?
[06:03] <GoldCraft> yes its just saying its a error also at the startup it says startup error i think it was.
[06:03] <deniljoseph> My wifi isnt working some one help me plz
[06:04] <anes_> scanimage -L not show any scanner
[06:04] <fishbowlkraken> Right, is that DOING anything, goldcraft?
[06:04] <fishbowlkraken> or is it just SAYING there's an error?
[06:04] <GoldCraft> yes its anoyinh
[06:04]  * fishbowlkraken headdesks
[06:05] <fishbowlkraken> is the error causing any other problems?
[06:05] <fishbowlkraken> If no, then just have it ignore future errors of this type. Sometimes shit crashes in the background
[06:05] <fishbowlkraken> and it's just a thing that happens.
[06:05] <GoldCraft> lol
[06:05] <GoldCraft> sad
[06:05] <fishbowlkraken> It's not doing anything, then just have it not tell you it's hitting an error
[06:06] <GoldCraft> well i will try restarting it again :P
[06:07] <fishbowlkraken> So, okay. I have a realtek ALC892 card
[06:07] <fishbowlkraken> which, from my googling over the last half decade or so, is a monstrous pain in the ass
[06:07] <deniljoseph> Wi-Fi is dead over here please help
[06:07] <fishbowlkraken> What's your card?
[06:07] <GoldCraft> i heard about so many people having no wifi when they installed ubuntu :P
[06:08] <fishbowlkraken> Yeah, because they legally can't provide proprietary drivers on the install disc
[06:08] <deniljoseph> Bcm 802.11n
[06:08] <fishbowlkraken> so if you can get on the internet in another way, go to the driver installer
[06:08] <fishbowlkraken> okay, great, go use the driver installer to get broadcom wireless drivers
[06:09] <deniljoseph> Can u help me. Bcz i m a noob to ubuntu
[06:09] <fishbowlkraken> the "additional drivers" option in Unity.
[06:09] <deniljoseph> Idk how
[06:09] <fishbowlkraken> Type "additional drivers" into your unity search bar.
[06:09] <kriszta3> use cabel
[06:09] <fishbowlkraken> Yeah, you need to be connected to the internet for that to work first
[06:09] <deniljoseph> Found it
[06:10] <fishbowlkraken> okay, run it, and have it find your wireless drivers
[06:10] <deniljoseph> Says no propritetay drivers are in use
[06:10] <fishbowlkraken> right, that's how it is currently
[06:10] <kriszta3> dont use wireless no
[06:10] <fishbowlkraken> okay, what version did you install?
[06:10] <kriszta3> use cabel
[06:10] <RandomUser1234> Can anyone hep me setup chrome/firefox to work with google translate and my microphone? I don't see the option for the microphone
[06:11] <RandomUser1234> kriszta3, are you polish?
[06:12] <kriszta3> maybe
[06:12] <kriszta3> :)
[06:12] <RandomUser1234> well i'm i poland right now trying to setup a translator, help me lol
[06:12] <lotuspsychje> !pl | RandomUser1234
[06:12] <kriszta3> google use translator

[06:12] <kriszta3> windows xp
[06:13] <RandomUser1234> yes but there's no microphone option
[06:13] <RandomUser1234> I don't know if it's because of ubuntu
[06:13] <kriszta3> ubuntu
[06:13] <kriszta3> system settings
[06:13] <lotuspsychje> kriszta3: stop that please, you have been told not to type random stuff here
[06:14] <deniljoseph> Guys no propritary drivers in use
[06:14] <deniljoseph> What do i do
[06:14] <fishbowlkraken> Deniljoseph, what version of Ubuntu did you install?
[06:14] <deniljoseph> 14.04
[06:15] <fishbowlkraken> Why a new install of 14.04?
[06:15] <deniljoseph> Thts what i downloaded
[06:15] <kriszta3> upgraded
[06:15] <fishbowlkraken> ...Why, though?
[06:16] <deniljoseph> Didnt knew about the latest ones
[06:16] <fishbowlkraken> okay, fine
[06:16] <deniljoseph> And now my bandwidth is low to download a newer one
[06:16] <deniljoseph> Got to fix this in 14.04 itself
[06:16] <fishbowlkraken> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/broadcom-sta/6.30.223.248-3
[06:16] <fishbowlkraken> here, download the .deb file from here
[06:16] <fishbowlkraken> and just run it with the software center
[06:16] <fishbowlkraken> should install.
[06:17] <fishbowlkraken> Then after that reboot and see if it works
[06:17] <deniljoseph> Lemme give it a try
[06:17] <fishbowlkraken> And after that, maybe someone can help me figure out what to do with this stupid headphones thing
[06:17] <fishbowlkraken> I've got a realtek ALC892 card, and it keeps trying to flicker back and forth between two audio sources, despite only having one audio jack plugged in
[06:18] <fishbowlkraken> I'd fixed this somehow when I updated to 15.10, but I've totally forgotten how I did it
[06:19] <fishbowlkraken> So yeah, anyone think they can help me out here?
[06:20] <lotuspsychje> !sound | fishbowlkraken
[06:21] <fishbowlkraken> Thanks for throwing the bot at me, but I'm asking for help on a specific soundcard, I've already RTFM here. I had a hack that worked last october but I've forgotten what did the trick.
[06:23] <lotuspsychje> fishbowlkraken: did you try to restart pulseaudio yet?
[06:23] <deniljoseph> I cant find the deb file
[06:23] <lotuspsychje> fishbowlkraken: check your syslog/dmesg for relevant errors?
[06:24] <fishbowlkraken> Yes, this is a persistent problem. Here, I found a similar bug here
[06:24] <fishbowlkraken> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86158
[06:24] <deniljoseph> Got a .dsc
[06:24] <fishbowlkraken> And dude, seriously denil?
[06:24] <deniljoseph> .tar.xz
[06:24] <deniljoseph> Yep
[06:24] <fishbowlkraken> ah shit I linked the source not the deb
[06:24] <fishbowlkraken> one sec
[06:24] <deniljoseph> Thats the two formats i found
[06:24] <deniljoseph> Ohw
[06:24] <deniljoseph> Tyt
[06:25] <hateball> deniljoseph: do you have a working internet connection using ethernet? if so "sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source"
[06:25] <hateball> let that work its magic, reboot. and things should be OK
[06:25] <fishbowlkraken> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/broadcom-sta/6.30.223.248-3/+build/6629294
[06:26] <fishbowlkraken> There it is
[06:26] <fishbowlkraken> the debs are at the bottom
[06:26] <deniljoseph> I dont have hateball
[06:27] <deniljoseph> There are 3 debs
[06:28] <deniljoseph> Which one
[06:28] <lotuspsychje> deniljoseph: follow the advice from hateball
[06:28] <deniljoseph> I dont have ethernet
[06:28] <hateball> lotuspsychje: He said he did not have working ethernet tho, so I am assuming he will copy using removable media
[06:29] <fishbowlkraken> AH.
[06:29] <fishbowlkraken> Yeah no listen to hateball, I'm no good at sneakernetting
[06:29] <lotuspsychje> deniljoseph: did you check your ubuntu .iso, the broadcom driver is on ther normally?
[06:29] <lotuspsychje> deniljoseph: did you also check your additional drivers if the STA driver shows?
[06:29] <deniljoseph> Idk i just got the iso burned into usb and installed
[06:29] <deniljoseph> Idk anything in it
[06:30] <deniljoseph> No proprietary drivers installed
[06:30] <hateball> Yeah it wont show unless you have a working internet connection iirc
[06:30] <lotuspsychje> deniljoseph: ok, try to browse your usb stick then
[06:30] <deniljoseph> Just min
[06:31] <deniljoseph> Which dir

[06:35] <RandomUser1234> If I want to use skype on ubuntu, would I need to use wine?
[06:36] <lotuspsychje> RandomUser1234: no, you can enable the partner repo and install from there
[06:37] <RandomUser1234> lotuspsychje, would it be in my best internet to use wine instead to sandbox skype?
[06:37] <RandomUser1234> for privacy?
[06:37] <lotuspsychje> RandomUser1234: if you want privacy, i would search a more secure way of communication like telegram
[06:37] <hateball> It'd be in your best interest to not use Skype at all, if you value privacty
[06:38] <lotuspsychje> RandomUser1234: there is a telegram-desktop if you like, but no video messaging yet
[06:38] <deniljoseph> Dkms install completed
[06:39] <fishbowlkraken> HAHAHA HATEBALL YOU GENIUS. That wasn't the solution I found last time, but this one doesn't kill the bass in my headphones like my old solution did.
[06:39] <hateball> fishbowlkraken: I'd hardly call my google-fu genius, but if it's working for you, good stuff :)
[06:40] <deniljoseph> OMG wifi is working now thanks a lot guys  :$
[06:40] <lotuspsychje> !yay | deniljoseph
[06:40] <fishbowlkraken> haha. I was going about it all wrong. I was looking for solutions based on the card specifically, instead of just dealing with the fact that it kept messing with the jack
[06:40] <lotuspsychje> deniljoseph: you update your system asap
[06:40] <KeithWeisshar> when will ubunto 16.04.1 be released to fix the bug with skylake+nvidia gtx 980 preventing boot to live desktop?
[06:41] <deniljoseph> U mean i want to update ubuntu to latest one ?
[06:41] <deniljoseph> U mean i want to update ubuntu to latest one ?
[06:41] <lotuspsychje> deniljoseph:no, update your system to latest packages
[06:41] <KeithWeisshar> i'm unable to boot to live desktop with the skylake and gtx 980 combo
[06:41] <lotuspsychje> KeithWeisshar: did you try a nomodeset to get in?
[06:41] <deniljoseph> Oh how much data will that take
[06:41] <KeithWeisshar> that didn't work
[06:42] <lotuspsychje> deniljoseph: hmm, 300mb+ surely i think
[06:42] <deniljoseph> Oooops
[06:42] <deniljoseph> Cant afford tht i got only 2gb per month
[06:42] <lotuspsychje> deniljoseph: goto a public wifi to update your system :p
[06:42] <KeithWeisshar> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/llvm-toolchain-3.8/+bug/1564156
[06:43] <lotuspsychje> KeithWeisshar: can you boot into a liveusb?
[06:43] <deniljoseph> Yeah I got to go to a railway station to do tht :D
[06:43] <deniljoseph> Thts where i have public WiFi
[06:44] <KeithWeisshar> it freezes on liveusb
[06:44] <lotuspsychje> KeithWeisshar: any other ubuntu versions worked on your system?
[06:44] <KeithWeisshar> this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/llvm-toolchain-3.8/+bug/1564156 is preventing boot into liveusb
[06:45] <KeithWeisshar> all i get is a desktop background with a flickering error message
[06:45] <lotuspsychje> KeithWeisshar: bug says fix released?
[06:45] <KeithWeisshar> need to wait for a new 16.04.1 iso to be created
[06:45] <deniljoseph> Guys one more prob
[06:46] <KeithWeisshar> it says fix released but did not make it into the iso
[06:46] <deniljoseph> I plugged in my phone and i cant copy any files into my phones sd card it says there's an error copying the file into mtp://[usb:003,007]/card/ucdownloads
[06:47] <hateball> There doesnt seem to be a nightly build for 16.04 either, only 16.10 now...
[06:47] <lotuspsychje> KeithWeisshar: answer #21 looks promising on that bug
[06:47] <KeithWeisshar> the only around this bug is to select install in the pre-boot menu and install updates from internet while installing
[06:47] <deniljoseph> But i can copy it to my phone memory though
[06:50] <deniljoseph> Any sol?
[06:50] <KeithWeisshar> there is no way around this issue if i way to use a live boot without installing
[06:51] <hateball> deniljoseph: depends on model of phone. MTP isnt so super great.
[06:51] <hateball> deniljoseph: if you have the option of using UMS mode instead of MTP that'd work nicer
[06:51] <deniljoseph> Nah
[06:52] <deniljoseph> I have only mtp and ptp
[06:52] <deniljoseph> Any sol
[06:55] <deniljoseph> Guys?
[06:56] <fonz_dm1> What?
[06:56] <hateball> deniljoseph: you could use ad-hoc wifi and copy over ssh or such
[06:57] <deniljoseph> Tats complictaed as i m a noob
[06:57] <hateball> You could start by telling us what model phone then
[06:58] <deniljoseph> Samsung Galaxy Star Pro
[06:58] <deniljoseph> GT-S7262
[07:00] <deniljoseph> Whats the superuser password?

[07:18] <EriC^^> xorg.conf maybe
[07:19] <profsimm> I installed VSFTPd and I was hoping I'd be able to login with local system users into it, instead I get "500 OOPS: priv_sock_get_result" Ideas?
[07:19] <goudkov> yeah, don't have it. the system configures automatically without it depending on what monitors are hooked up. so i really don't want to make the entire configuration statix
[07:19] <goudkov> static
[07:20] <auronandace> goudkov: you could try putting it in your .profile that way everytime you login it gets executed
[07:21] <Ben64> profsimm: you should uninstall that and use openssh-server and use sftp instead
[07:21] <EriC^^> goudkov: you could put it in your ~/.profile with something like if [ -n "$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP" ]; then xrandr... ; fi

[07:26] <Braden`> I am using Ubuntu 16.04 as a guest os, and I had gdm/xwindows working until I copied the guest os to another comp.  Now everything works fine except that gdm won't start.  How do I diagnose this?
[07:26] <Braden`> I have the vboxguestadditions installed
[07:29] <hateball> Braden`: you'd be using lightdm rather than gdm to start with

[07:34] <deniljoseph> its an usb dongle
[07:34] <deniljoseph> of micromax
[07:35] <auronandace> deniljoseph: the instructions you were following were for 12.04 at latest, and you are on 14.04 (i don't think 12.04 had multilib in place)

[07:49] <reisio> deniljoseph: matters to me, or I wouldn't have asked
[07:50] <netameta> Does ubuntu have a software/package like access ?
[07:50] <profsimm> akik "ProFTPD warning: cannot start neither in standalone nor in inetd/xinetd mode. Check your configuration."
[07:50] <netameta> like microsoft access ?
[07:50] <akik> profsimm: it works on 14.04 also. look into /etc/vsftpd.conf and see if you have local_enable=YES
[07:50] <profsimm> akik: I had it
[07:51] <aavrug> Hello everyone!

[07:52] <aavrug> I am trying to find and replace an string from entire folder using regex but couldn't get how to user grep and sed together?
[07:52] <aavrug> grep -lr -e 'data-reactid="(?:\.[a-z\d])+"' * | xargs sed -i 's/data-reactid="(?:\.[a-z\d])+"/<newword>/g'
[07:52] <aavrug> This one I tried but not working.
[07:53] <reisio> aavrug: what's your input, and what's the output you want?
[07:53] <akik> profsimm: disk full?
[07:53] <profsimm> akik: nope
[07:53] <aavrug> reisio, data-reactid="(?:\.[a-z\d])+" this is the regex what I am using and need to replace with ''.
[07:54] <reisio> aavrug: so you want data-reactid="" ?
[07:55] <akik> profsimm: try starting the daemon from the shell without the service script
[07:55] <akik> profsimm: do you have some other process listening on port 21? netstat -tulpan | grep :21

[07:59] <aavrug> reisio, What is $line in this?
[08:00] <profsimm> akik: where is the binary?
[08:00] <reisio> aavrug: every line that 'find' spits out
[08:00] <reisio> aavrug: one line at a time, from a loop
[08:00] <reisio> named 'line' just for readability

[08:02] <profsimm> akik: yes
[08:02] <reisio> aavrug: can use | xargs perl -pi -e ... instead if you want
[08:02] <akik> profsimm: the docs say that you get this error if you have selected proftpd to be run through inetd
[08:03] <akik> profsimm: which mode did you select?
[08:03] <profsimm> akik: I selected inetd, it didn't work. I changed it to standalone, now it runs from CLI, how do I set it up as a service?
[08:04] <akik> profsimm: you just said it doesn't start?
[08:04] <profsimm> akik:  I had to change the mode in .conf from inetd to standalone.
[08:04] <akik> profsimm: ok good
[08:04] <profsimm> akik: works now, well, I still can't login. But it listens
[08:04] <zetheroo> I am having trouble in 16.04 with using software sources from 3rd party's which worked find with 14.04. I get the following message: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16199595/
[08:05] <profsimm> akik: how do I set it up as a standalone service
[08:06] <akik> profsimm: the start script for 14.04 is /etc/init.d/proftpd
[08:07] <profsimm> akik: sorry I'm unsure how to set this up as a service
[08:07] <profsimm> akik: i.e. to run on reboot and so on
[08:08] <akik> profsimm: you use update-rc.d to do it. i'll check
[08:08] <aavrug> reisio, thanks let me try :)
[08:08] <akik> profsimm: sudo update-rc.d proftpd enable
[08:09] <profsimm> akik: thanks.
[08:09] <akik> profsimm: that creates the sym links under /etc
[08:09] <profsimm> akik: yay
[08:09] <profsimm> akik: I still can't login with my system users, oddly. Ideas?
[08:09] <akik> profsimm: logs logs logs
[08:09] <profsimm> akik: I have a user like foo, bar, and I login with it verbatim, is there something different I need to type?
[08:09] <akik> profsimm: you need to enable some debug mode probably
[08:10] <akik> http://www.proftpd.org/docs/howto/Debugging.html
[08:10] <profsimm> akik: it says "USER foo (Login failed): Invalid shell: '' "
[08:10] <akik> profsimm: good!
[08:10] <profsimm> akik: good :)?
[08:11] <akik> profsimm: well you found the problem :)
[08:11] <profsimm> akik:  well :P
[08:11] <akik> profsimm: look into /etc/passwd for the line for the user
[08:11] <akik> profsimm: the last column seems to be empty
[08:12] <M-R-X> ASSALAMU ALEYKUM
[08:12] <reisio> shalom
[08:12] <k1l> if you want users not to be able to login via ssh use "/bin/false" as login shell
[08:13] <profsimm> akik: I added shell and now it works.
[08:13] <profsimm> akik:  thanks!
[08:13] <reisio> you can use plain openssh-server & rssh instead of ftp
[08:14] <profsimm> akik: what does shell have to do with FTP...?
[08:14] <akik> profsimm: no problem you might want to look into securing the ftp protocol with certificates
[08:14] <profsimm> akik: I won't open it on public IP.
[08:14] <profsimm> akik: best type of security ;)
[08:14] <reisio> it's ironic that ftp, an antiquated approach, is so much harder to setup
[08:14] <profsimm> akik: question, how can I set the directory to open for a user, different than their home directory
[08:15] <akik> anything is hard if you haven't done it before
[08:15] <reisio> profsimm: 'cd wherever' in ~/.bashrc, etc.
[08:15] <akik> the problem in this case was that he hadn't defined the shell for the user
[08:15] <profsimm> reisio: I'd like to do this just for FTP, not SSH
[08:16]  * reisio shakes head
[08:16] <akik> profsimm: i don't know about that directory thing
[08:16] <k1l> which now means the users can login via ssh too
[08:16] <reisio> profsimm: more work, fewer features
[08:16] <akik> you can defined in sshd_config who can login or not
[08:17] <profsimm> akik: thanks!
[08:17] <profsimm> akik: for all your help
[08:22] <kez> Can anyone tell me what the difference is in functionality regarding: ubuntu snap packages vs docker
[08:22] <kez> What problem does snap packages solve that docker does not?
[08:23] <k1l> kez: you compare a complete OS in a Vm sort of thing, with a program package that ships all depencies it needs besides the base OS.
[08:23] <somsip> kez: docker is a container with a shared or dedicated filesystem, snap uses an overlay filesystem (AIUI)
[08:24] <kez> ...but can't docker also use aufs and overlays?
[08:24] <somsip> kez: dunno - that's a docker issue and this is ubuntu
[08:24] <kez> (I'm not extremely familar with either technology)
[08:25] <kez> https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/storagedriver/aufs-driver/
[08:25] <somsip> kez: if you're not familiar, frankly you may not need either. If you want to read up on it before asking more specific questions (about snappy, as docker would not be on topic here) it might be more fruitful
[08:26] <kez> Well, I just want a simple mechanism to deploy some custom software in a maintainable way... and something that provides rollback functionality when things go awry.
[08:26] <k1l> kez: that sounds like you want snappy packages. #snappy
[08:27] <somsip> kez: yeah - sounds snappy-relevant. Docker would be more if you wanted to be able to replicate an environment rather than just present a package (though it can do more)
[08:28] <somsip> kez: not sure if this will have enough in depth info for you, but might be a starting point https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/desktop/
[08:30] <kez> somsip thanks -- I'd noticed in a PR article http://thenewstack.io/snappy-ubuntu-a-new-cloud-os-with-support-for-docker-in-a-post-shellshock-era/ that "Anything you run inside Docker can run in Snappy"
[08:30] <somsip> kez: may be referring to snappy-core (without reading it)
[08:31] <kez> I dunno -- maybe I'll troll #docker... I think my understanding of what docker is suppose to do is not a reflection of reality :)
[08:32] <kez> thanks for the insight :)
[08:32] <somsip> kez: I won't pretend I'm an expert so #snappy and #docker seem like the places to be to get better advice
[08:34] <contumax> fyi I just experienced this very old bug on ubuntu 14.04: http://slacy.com/blog/2010/06/cannot-make-directory-varrunscreen-permission-denied/ reboot did not help
[08:35] <reisio> IIRC, just running screen as root will fix that
[08:35] <reisio> running it once, that is
[08:37] <akik> contumax: here are the permissions for /var/run/screen: drwxrwxr-x  3 root       utmp          60 May  3 11:37 screen
[08:38] <akik> contumax: so "sudo chmod 775 /var/run/screen; sudo chown root:utmp /var/run/screen"
[08:39] <reisio> doubt that's necessary
[08:40] <trijntje> A whole bunch of gnome programs wont launch on 16.04, including unity itself http://pastebin.com/nzV47TkE How can I fix this?
[08:42] <contumax> reisio, this issue emerged at the same time as problems with tty, there is no tty after boot, I'm still unable to resolve this, any idea?
[08:42] <k1l> trijntje: what did you do before that happened?
[08:42] <reisio> no tty?
[08:42] <trijntje> k1l: installed updates. I've been on 16.04 since january, and after the release everything broke
[08:43] <somsip> trijntje: this might be worth a read but I cant vouch for any of it http://askubuntu.com/questions/135573/gconf-error-no-d-bus-daemon-running-how-to-reinstall-or-fix
[08:43] <contumax> reisio, yes, I connect via ssh, but directly on the machine, no tty after boot just black screen
[08:44] <reisio> trijntje: using ati's proprietary graphics driver?
[08:44] <reisio> contumax: what do you see before the black screen?
[08:44] <trijntje> reisio: no, I have an nvidia card
[08:45] <s2im> editing [theme]/gtk-3.0/apps/unity.css does nothing, I used to hide top decorations before 16.04
[08:45] <s2im> what has changed?
[08:45] <trijntje> somsip: I dont think so, ~/.dbus is owned by me
[08:45] <reisio> s2im: probably the selectors you'd need to use
[08:45] <somsip> trijntje: k - no idea but trying to offer you something
[08:46] <reisio> 'warning' msgs are probably non-fatal/semi-irrelevant
[08:47] <contumax> reisio,  some updates probably, also suddenly grub menu waits long time before booting and I didn't set that, after choosing ubuntu, there is only black screen, no boot log output and no tty
[08:48] <aavrug> reisio, It works thanks but just replaced the data-react-id content so run it from sublime again and it worked :)
[08:49] <reisio> aavrug: hrmm?
[08:49] <s2im> it clearly says -UnityDecoration-extents: 28px 0 0 0 and changing any of the numbers just doesn’t do anything
[08:49] <k1l> trijntje: did you relogin since then? does the guest account work?
[08:50] <aavrug> reisio, what I writtent in the regex was matching from data.. to .1.a".
[08:50] <reisio> aavrug: wha?
[08:51] <zetheroo> in 16.04 how do you change the keyboard language layout?
[08:51] <aavrug> reisio, After running this find . -type f -exec grep -l 'data-reactid' {} \; | while IFS='' read -r line; do perl -pi -e 's/(data-reactid=")[^"]+(")/\1\2/g' "$line"; done I got in my file like data-react-id="" instead ''.
[08:51] <aavrug> reisio, but now done :)
[08:51] <zetheroo> I changed it in System Settings > Text Entry ... but it's not taking effect
[08:52] <contumax> reisio, also after reboot I get this "Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied" again
[08:53] <steigre> zetheroo, do you have a little language indicator in your top right corner, and if so, what does it say?
[08:53] <zetheroo> yes
[08:54] <s2im> I put that line into ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css and it worked
[08:54] <reisio> aavrug: so you wanted 'data-reactid=""' to be replaced with '' (removed)?
[08:54] <zetheroo>  steigre: oh man, thanks! :)
[08:54] <trijntje> k1l: both unity and gnome shell dont work, and its the same from the live system. I'm using dwm now
[08:54] <aavrug> reisio, yea exactly
[08:54] <reisio> aavrug: ah, misunderstood :p gj
[08:55] <steigre> zetheroo, np :)
[08:55] <k1l> trijntje: that sounds like an issue with the video driver, tbh
[08:55] <reisio> would've wanted 's/data-reactid="[^"]+"//g'
[08:55] <aavrug> reisio, no probs :) indeed you gave me an ulternate solution :)
[09:00] <aavrug> reisio, just for knowledge I tried with this but it's not working. find . -type f -exec grep -l 'data-reactid' {} \; | while IFS='' read -r line; do perl -pi -e 's/data-reactid="[^"]+"//g' "$line"; done
[09:00] <trijntje> k1l: could be. But that shouldn't break just a bunch of gnome programs right?
[09:00] <aavrug> reisio, What I am missing.
[09:01] <Nek0ck> hi
[09:02] <reisio> aavrug: what makes you think it's not working?
[09:02] <Magnetz74> In the ubuntu-server ncurses installer, how do I select items?
[09:02] <Magnetz74> Options I mean
[09:02] <Ben64> space bar?
[09:03] <Magnetz74> Ben64: Thanks!
[09:05] <trijntje> k1l: I've also tried the nvidia361 driver from the repo, but that didn't fix anything
[09:05] <aavrug> reisio, I can see the file whaich have still the data-react-id....
[09:05] <reisio> aavrug: reload it
[09:06] <mediaserverhelp> hi
[09:06] <mediaserverhelp> ?
[09:06] <reisio> hi
[09:06] <reisio> !
[09:06] <mediaserverhelp> i need help
[09:06] <reisio> oh yeah?
[09:06] <mediaserverhelp> as i m configuring  icecast2 media server, sir how can we put .ogg files into /etc/ices2/music direcrory ??
[09:07] <reisio> aavrug: probably your editor or whatever you have the file/s open in is working from a cached copy
[09:08] <mediaserverhelp> wat?
[09:08] <aavrug> reisio, but atleast It should show the change in git.
[09:08] <aavrug> that is a git repo.
[09:08] <mediaserverhelp> i didnt understand...
[09:08] <reisio> aavrug: that's not how git works
[09:08] <akik> mediaserverhelp: if someone's replying to you, you'll see mediaserverhelp: in the beginning of the line
[09:08] <reisio> not unless you're using gitfs or something "fancy"
[09:09] <aavrug> reisio, let me see
[09:10] <mediaserverhelp> guys i m new.. i m not getting.. it will be amazing if u hlp me
[09:10] <aavrug> reisio, I have closed the whole editor and then restart it it's working now fine :)
[09:10] <reisio> aavrug: you might want to configure your editor to update files more frequently
[09:11] <aavrug> reisio, It's replacing with a space but we are not giving even a single space then why space?
[09:11] <aavrug> reisio, ok I'll see and try to fix that :)
[09:11] <reisio> aavrug: usually SGML-type text comes in the form of <element attribute="value" attribute="value">
[09:12] <reisio> if you take one out, you might well end up with <element  attribute="value">
[09:12] <Myrtti> mediaserverhelp: patience, young padawan
[09:12] <reisio> aavrug: so 's/ data-reactid="[^"]+"//g' might serve you better
[09:12] <aavrug> reisio, 's/ data-reactid="[^"]+"//g'
[09:12] <reisio> right
[09:13] <aavrug> reisio, thanks for your time and your great help :)

[09:25] <k1l> trijntje: could be that these apps need some sort of 3d video driver for some calculations. are there some errors in the Xorg.log in /var/log?
[09:29] <rp2> I like that suggestion. I've always had to swicth X servers (I think) to get OpenGL programs to work on my Dell computers
[09:29] <rp2> that was on 12.04 and 14.04
[09:30] <trijntje> k1l: it says it failed to initialise the NVIDIA kernel module. Syslog lists the segfaults as being in libc-2.33
[09:30] <k1l> trijntje: so, there you go
[09:31] <k1l> make sure "linux-generic" is installed.
[09:32] <trijntje> k1l: linux-generic is installed. But my video card seems to work fine, I can play web videos etc.
[09:32] <trijntje> what do you think the problem is?
[09:32] <kriszta3> no problem
[09:33] <k1l> trijntje: "lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use'"

[09:36] <trijntje> k1l: Error: GLX is not available on the system
[09:36] <k1l> trijntje: see. its not using the nvidia driver and so no glx is available that breaks the programs
[09:37] <k1l> you need to get to know what is wrong with the driver you installed. there must have been erorrs when installing it.
[09:38] <trijntje> k1l: I'll install nvidia-361-updates, sine I have a new video card. Those should be the latest drivers right?
[09:39] <k1l> trijntje: yes. but look at the output from apt
[09:40] <trijntje> k1l: no apt errors, should I reboot? http://pastebin.com/8EzeAudP
[09:40] <k1l> yes
[09:40] <k1l> but i am afk now, so ask the channel if something goes wrong again

[09:41] <MrARM> hmm, when my wifi adapter does not work in dmesg I found this following message: brcmfmac 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for brcm/brcmfmac43602-pcie.txt failed with error -2
[09:41] <MrARM> anyone has ideas what can be done about that?
[09:41] <trijntje> k1l: thanks for your help, we'll see how it goes ;)
[09:42] <lotuspsychje> MrARM: ubuntu version and wifi chipset please?
[09:44] <MrARM> 16.04 and 14e4:43ba is the id
[09:44] <MrARM> this is a update from 15.10 where it worked alwaya
[09:44] <MrARM> *always
[09:44] <lotuspsychje> MrARM: broadcom?
[09:44] <MrARM> yes
[09:44] <MrARM> now it sometimes works sometimes not
[09:45] <MrARM> when it does not, the adapter is not visible at all in the system
[09:45] <lotuspsychje> MrARM: can you check additional drivers section if STA broadcom driver is active or not?
[09:46] <lotuspsychje> trijntje: working now?
[09:46] <Dev__> Hi ! I installed Ubuntu 16.04 and now in my sound menu, if I choose analog output, I can't select "stereo" mode like in Ubuntu 14.04. The minimum is 4.0 output. Strangely, there is a new Headphones option in left menu (for the same sound card chip). If I chosee headphones output, it uses the same output as front speakers so I have stereo mode, but I don't like the quality of the sound. Maybe "Headphones" option uses less quality. I think
[09:46] <Dev__>  it can be a bug because headphones output shouldn't use speakers jack.
[09:46] <trijntje> I can't start many gnome programs on 16.04. Without the nvidia driver http://pastebin.com/nzV47TkE With the latest driver installed http://pastebin.com/XdQUckGX
[09:46] <Guest42083> Ubuntu 16.04 broke my 15.10 :(
[09:47] <trijntje> lotuspsychje: sadly not, I still cant start unity or gnome shell
[09:47] <Guest42083> Currently downloading onto a DvD, but anyone have any insight to further problems I might have?
[09:47] <lotuspsychje> trijntje: sudo ubuntu-drivers list to see what drivers are available?
[09:47] <trijntje> nvidia-361
[09:47] <trijntje> intel-microcode
[09:48] <Dev__> Maybe disabling (not muting) Headphones output I can use again "Analog Stereo Output" option. Any fix for this?
[09:48] <lotuspsychje> trijntje: on xenial?
[09:48] <trijntje> lotuspsychje: yes
[09:48] <Guest42083> Ubuntu 16.04 broke my 15.10 :(
[09:48] <lotuspsychje> !sound | Dev__
[09:48] <trijntje> !details | Guest42083
[09:48] <MrARM> lotuspsychje, hmm, how would I check that ? find in dmesg if it's the only driver that is getting loaded ?
[09:49] <Guest42083> whoopsie, looks like I duplicated what I said somehow
[09:49] <lotuspsychje> MrARM: if you have GUI, check software & sources, tab/additional drivers
[09:49] <effectnet> hi some mail came in and thunderbird marked it as junk, now i can't search for it?
[09:49] <Guest42083> Can't do that lmao ubottu
[09:49] <Guest42083> It's on another ssd that won't boot
[09:49] <Dev__> lotuspsychje thank you! do you know if Headphones output can be disabled via pavucontrol?
[09:50] <Guest42083> If I'm putting 16.04 on disc, obviously that means that I used the upgrade as it came
[09:50] <MrARM> lotuspsychje, hmm I only have nvidia and unknown: unknown there
[09:50] <Guest42083> that or used the command line.. as previously mentioned obviously I don't have any more details or I would have posted them.. just curious if I would run into any more issues
[09:50] <hateball> trijntje: I havent followed everything, but did you check that you are the owner of ~/.Xauthority
[09:51] <lotuspsychje> MrARM: didnt play with pavu myself sorry
[09:51] <trijntje> hateball: I'm the owner of that file
[09:51] <lotuspsychje> trijntje: clean install or upgrade?
[09:51] <MrARM> I can paste the whole dmesg log when it fails and when it does not if that would help
[09:52] <trijntje> lotuspsychje: clean install of xenial back in january. Live system also cant show the ubuntu desktop

[09:55] <trijntje> k1l: http://pastebin.com/6svJmt1M
[09:56] <MrARM> anyways that failed to upload bin thing in dmesg shows up even when it works so that is not it
[09:57] <k1l> trijntje: "cat /var/log/syslog | nc termbin.com 9999"
[09:58] <MrARM> lotuspsychje, well, that command installed that driver
[09:58] <MrARM> without a confirmation
[10:00] <trijntje> k1l: I've left out the parts where ureadahead reads in my entire home folder http://pastebin.com/Lp0hdtS9

[10:00] <MrARM> displays a cursor on a black screen
[10:01] <MrARM> so I guess I'll have to reinstall
[10:01] <lotuspsychje> MrARM: you getting a black screen on login screen?
[10:02] <MrARM> no, instead of screen turning off I get a black screen with a mouse pointer

[10:03] <Patte> Hello where does nautilus store its ftp connection? Im scared it is saved in plain text like filezilla :/
[10:03] <samgoody> But is it not supported?
[10:04] <trijntje> k1l: http://pastebin.com/81FUauFj
[10:05] <MrARM> lotuspsychje, that driver that got installed with that apt-get causes a kernel BUG in dmesg
[10:05] <k1l> samgoody: openssh includes ssh2
[10:05] <MrARM> followed by a stack trace
[10:06] <lotuspsychje> MrARM: ok, try this one: broadcom-sta-source

[10:39] <fictictiousfiber> 16.04
[10:39] <bazhang> fictictiousfiber, then you need to update sources
[10:39] <k1l> is multiverse enabled?
[10:40] <fictictiousfiber> How do i do this?
[10:40] <zetheroo> k1l: I still get that message when trying to change sharing prefs - do I need to logout/in ?
[10:40] <k1l> zetheroo: sudo apt install gnome-user-share
[10:41] <zetheroo> k1l: gnome-user-share is already the newest version (3.14.2-2ubuntu4).
[10:41] <k1l> zetheroo: ok, seems like the feature you want to use needs apache stuff
[10:41] <k1l> sudo apt-get install apache2.2-bin libapache2-mod-dnssd
[10:42] <hateball> fictictiousfiber: See here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[10:42] <zetheroo> k1l: you getting that from http://askubuntu.com/questions/547854/sharing-public-folder-between-ubuntu-machines-via-personal-file-sharing ?
[10:42] <zetheroo> I thought it off that file sharing needed apache :P
[10:43] <varuna> open the deb file and downlaod
[10:43] <k1l> zetheroo: no.
[10:43] <k1l> zetheroo: maybe that will create something like a webdialog or something. but i am not using it, so i dont really know
[10:43] <hateball> fictictiousfiber: Enable Multiverse and update if the GUI doesnt do it (sudo apt update). After that you can install steam through software center,or via terminal: sudo apt install steam
[10:43] <cfhowlett> open the deb file and downlaod, varuna?   that is completely wrong on multiple levels
[10:44] <zetheroo> k1l: in 14.04 the packages were automatically selected and installed when one tried to share something via Nautilus
[10:44] <fictictiousfiber> Multiverse reminds me of the movie The One starring Jet Li :| .. Mind telling me where this is located?
[10:44] <fictictiousfiber> I'm in system settings right now
[10:44] <zetheroo> k1l: seems like that was the right way to go about this ... but seems that's been dropped
[10:45] <fictictiousfiber> That page seems confusing to me a bit
[10:45] <hateball> fictictiousfiber: The link I gave you has pictures. Altho I dont run Gnome/Unity so I cant say how accurate they are
[10:45] <hateball> !multiverse
[10:45] <fictictiousfiber> Yes, and those pictures are oddly grating on the eyes
[10:45] <fictictiousfiber> I prefer text
[10:45] <zetheroo> k1l: E: Package 'apache2.2-bin' has no installation candidate
[10:46] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: system settings -> software and update- > see what is checke
[10:46] <k1l> *checked
[10:46] <fictictiousfiber> all but source coe
[10:46] <fictictiousfiber> code*
[10:46] <cfhowlett> fictictiousfiber, as you prefer text, you must actually read the links.  all is explained there
[10:46] <fictictiousfiber> whoops
[10:46] <fictictiousfiber> all are checked in "updates" tab
[10:46] <k1l> zetheroo: sorry its apache2-bin
[10:47] <zetheroo> ok
[10:47] <varuna> its a package file isnt it
[10:47] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: lil question in discuss plz?
[10:47] <varuna> deb file
[10:47] <fictictiousfiber> Should i check the box for Canonical Partners in "other software"?
[10:47] <hateball> fictictiousfiber: Yes
[10:47] <varuna> similar to apt get
[10:47] <varuna> so it downloads
[10:47] <fictictiousfiber> that looked familiar. Thanks for the confirmation
[10:47] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, now open for business
[10:47] <fictictiousfiber> I'm going to see if it works
[10:47] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: "apt-cache policy steam |nc termbin.com 9999"
[10:48] <zetheroo> k1l: thanks - that worked!
[10:48] <fictictiousfiber> do .. I type that into the terminal?
[10:48] <fictictiousfiber> What do I do with that info
[10:48] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: yes
[10:48] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: it will print a url., please show that url here
[10:49] <aquiles> Hii
[10:49] <firman> I have 2 ubuntu boot options, i ran in dualboot with win8, how to remove the duplicate of ubuntu boot option, i using efibootmgr but no information about boot order
[10:49] <fictictiousfiber> kil: http://termbin.com/817x
[10:50] <lerner> is this the place to ask for tips to prolong li ion batteries?
[10:50] <hateball> !tab | fictictiousfiber, this helps to get peoples names right
[10:50] <fictictiousfiber> hahaha no lol
[10:50] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: so: "sudo apt install steam"
[10:50] <cfhowlett> lerner, #hardware perhaps would be better
[10:51] <lerner> cannot send to channel :(
[10:52] <k1l> lerner: maybe you need to register an account on freenode. ask in #freenode for help
[10:52] <fictictiousfiber> looks like steam is downloading an update, but what about my sublime text :(?
[10:52] <fictictiousfiber> same way?
[10:53] <fictictiousfiber> kil: ?
[10:53] <k1l> i dont think sublime is in the repos.
[10:53] <trijntje> k1l, hateball I've got the unity desktop environment back
[10:53] <hateball> trijntje: Cool beans
[10:53] <fictictiousfiber> Yeah. . darn how do I get it running like I did before?
[10:53] <fictictiousfiber> Sublime was working fine befoer on 14.04 :(
[10:54] <fictictiousfiber> There has to be a way to get it working again right? I mean, this is linux..
[10:54] <varuna> get the deb file
[10:54] <fictictiousfiber> I have one
[10:54] <fictictiousfiber> ;)?
[10:54] <fictictiousfiber> I was here earlier asking what I could do with it
[10:54] <hateball> fictictiousfiber: open a terminal, cd to wherever you downloaded it to, sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[10:54] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: use dpkg -i  or gdebi to install that
[10:55] <hateball> iirc installing deb-files is currently broken
[10:55] <hateball> via gui, that is
[10:55] <fictictiousfiber> it's in downloads but it won't let me go there
[10:55] <cfhowlett> varuna, if you have only the .deb, you do not have the dependencies.  this is one reason why installing via .deb is not generally recommended
[10:55] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: how do you try to go there?
[10:55] <fictictiousfiber> cd downloads
[10:55] <fictictiousfiber> heee :)
[10:55] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: its case sensitive.
[10:55] <fictictiousfiber> Help please >.<
[10:56] <varuna> ahh ic
[10:56] <varuna> ic'
[10:56] <fictictiousfiber> woot it worked
[10:56] <fictictiousfiber> now.. dpackage what again? hold on
[10:56] <hateball> fictictiousfiber: This is why I showed you !tab earlier
[10:56] <fictictiousfiber> T^T yeah thanks for thta
[10:56] <varuna> where does deb get the files from tho if its not from the repos
[10:57] <varuna> third partyy?
[10:58] <fictictiousfiber> hateball: It's not working :(
[10:59] <fictictiousfiber> hateball: http://pastebin.com/afqdBngJ
[10:59] <fictictiousfiber> It no workie :S
[10:59] <k1l> that paste looks like its working
[10:59] <hateball> fictictiousfiber: How is it not working? Seems fine to me
[10:59] <fictictiousfiber> but it ended right there
[11:00] <fictictiousfiber> what do I do after that
[11:00] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: its an installer
[11:00] <fictictiousfiber> okay, but it ended right then and there
[11:00] <fictictiousfiber> no prompts.. nothing
[11:00] <fictictiousfiber> just defaulted back to my username
[11:00] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: then wait for a new prompt
[11:00] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: that is ok.
[11:00] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: then now start the program
[11:00] <fictictiousfiber> It's not installed
[11:00] <fictictiousfiber> there isn't anywhere to start it from when i search for it
[11:00] <fictictiousfiber> only it's deb comes up
[11:00] <z999> where can i download the new version for 32
[11:01] <fictictiousfiber> sorry in advance for the trouble
[11:01] <fictictiousfiber> please be gentle
[11:01] <varuna> does 32 use less ram?
[11:01] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text
[11:01] <k1l> varuna: no
[11:01] <z999> yes
[11:01] <varuna> k
[11:02] <varuna> hmm
[11:02] <varuna> cause i only got 4 gb
[11:02] <k1l> if your hardware can use 64bit use that. 32bit is dopping out
[11:02] <varuna> cpu can
[11:02] <k1l> varuna: that got nothing to do with ram size
[11:02] <z999> 32 bit is when it is 2 gb of ram or less
[11:02] <k1l> z999: no
[11:03] <varuna> so doesnt matter 64 32 wont use less ram on 32
[11:03] <z999> so i can use the 64 on 2 gb of ram laptop?
[11:03] <k1l> 32bit means the cpu is old or rubbish, so it cant run 64bit OS.
[11:03] <fictictiousfiber> what's the "opt" thingy stand for? I've found that a lot of these commands have meaning
[11:03] <varuna> yes u can
[11:03] <fictictiousfiber> It worked, but now I'm curious
[11:03] <k1l> z999: yes.
[11:03] <hateball> !fhs | fictictiousfiber
[11:03] <z999> ok will give it a try
[11:03] <varuna> but would it use less ram that the 64 bit os
[11:03] <fictictiousfiber> hate :(...
[11:03] <fictictiousfiber> I already have that, and am actively searching through it.. that's why i'm so speedy with what you give me
[11:04] <fictictiousfiber> I'm curious about the "opt" thingy though
[11:04] <k1l> varuna: 32bit is deprecated. chrome stopped making a 32bit version. other linux distributions stop making 32bit isos.
[11:04] <z999> k1l how do you know if your computer has a malware on ubuntu?
[11:05] <varuna> most hardware are all 64 bit compatible nowdays aye
[11:05] <k1l> z999: the malware situation is a different one from windows
[11:05] <k1l> !virus | z999
[11:05] <z999> k1l so don't worry about it?
[11:06] <cfhowlett> z999, install rkhunter and/or one of the anti-virus options.  and stop visiting sketchy sites
[11:06] <varuna> pirate bay
[11:06] <k1l> z999: dont install or run code you dont trust. and keep your system updated with the official ubuntu updates
[11:06] <jatt> there are no virus in ubuntu
[11:06] <z999> ok k1l
[11:07] <varuna> wens vulcan being released for linux
[11:08] <cfhowlett> jatt, false.  virii are rare but not unheard of. NO OS is virus free.
[11:08] <curmet> I've developed and tested web app (using a framework) in windows machine successfully, but after I move the app and framework folder , from c:\xampp\htdocs\ to /var/www/html to Ubuntu machine, it encounters errors, "cannot find the requested view" . What changes should I make to Ubuntu machine?
[11:08] <curmet> THanks in advance :)
[11:09] <varuna> wats ur web app
[11:09] <varuna> wats it do
[11:10] <jatt> there is no need of antivirus in ubuntu unless you want to scan files you want to send to users using windows or scan files on a windows partition
[11:10] <fictictiousfiber> it would seem that steam is stuck on updating.. I'm getting an odd questionmark icon in the task bar that i didn't see when I installed Steam the first time on ubuntu
[11:10] <curmet> varuna : what does it mean?
[11:10] <fictictiousfiber> whenever I try to start it, that's what appears
[11:10] <fictictiousfiber> It looks like it hangs on updating.. no other dialogue windows pop up
[11:11] <varuna> what does ur web app do i mean
[11:11] <varuna> install steam via command
[11:11] <varuna> it hung for me via software center
[11:11] <GoldCraft> sup'
[11:11] <fictictiousfiber> I did that varuna
[11:12] <fictictiousfiber> So.. what now?
[11:12] <varuna> hmm
[11:12] <fictictiousfiber> tried sudo apt-get update steam, but that didn't work
[11:12] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: you dont do that.
[11:13] <fictictiousfiber> what do I do :D?
[11:13] <GoldCraft> fictictousfiber dosent work at you either.
[11:13] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: run the steam client. then run the build in updater.
[11:13] <fictictiousfiber> I said that's what I did
[11:13] <fictictiousfiber> I launched
[11:13] <fictictiousfiber> it hangs..
[11:13] <fictictiousfiber> doesn't even give a dialogue box
[11:13] <cfhowlett> fictictiousfiber, steam has  a channel.  sounds like you should get support there.
[11:13] <k1l> fictictiousfiber: keep in mind we cant see or know what you  see or do there.
[11:14] <fictictiousfiber> just a greyed out questionmark icon box that is crossed out in the task bar
[11:14] <hateball> fictictiousfiber: Try running it from a terminal. The first run it should ask you to accept the license and install a few other deps
[11:14] <fictictiousfiber> Hey, don't shoo me outta here
[11:14] <varuna> so u launched in terminal?
[11:14] <fictictiousfiber> they'll just send me back here
[11:14] <fictictiousfiber> or tell me to install winblows
[11:14] <cfhowlett> and steam is not supported here ...
[11:14] <fictictiousfiber> yeah I launched it in the terminal
[11:14] <hateball> cfhowlett: Do you mean #ubuntu-steam ? It's all but dead
[11:14] <fictictiousfiber> cfhowlett actually I had 3 people helping me install it the first time :\
[11:14] <varuna> wat the log file say
[11:15] <fictictiousfiber> there is no pop-up dialogue var
[11:15] <cfhowlett> hateball, ah.  sad news that is.
[11:15] <hateball> cfhowlett: afaik there is nothing close to an official steam (client) channel. the ubuntu packaging also differs from valves, so that complicates things I guess
[11:16] <fictictiousfiber> STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically

[11:18] <zetheroo> when I "Safely Remove" a USB HDD it disappears and then a second later reappears and mounts :P
[11:18] <BluesKaj> GoldCraft, no ,but my grandmother was Danish

[11:18] <GoldCraft> help
[11:18] <GoldCraft> please
[11:19] <GoldCraft> ?
[11:19] <fictictiousfiber> How do I update my video card driver?
[11:19] <varuna> go to settingd
[11:19] <varuna> settingsd
[11:19] <varuna> settings*
[11:19] <GoldCraft> i can't even delete steam to reinstall it
[11:19] <fictictiousfiber> yep launched
[11:19] <varuna> software and updates
[11:19] <varuna> additional drivers
[11:20] <varuna> then change to proprietary
[11:20] <fictictiousfiber> right then
[11:20] <fictictiousfiber> done
[11:20] <GoldCraft> lol kaj :P
[11:20] <fictictiousfiber> apparently I'll have to restart, but I should be okay, then right?
[11:20] <GoldCraft> how do i colo my text
[11:20] <fictictiousfiber> i'm writing these steps down this time
[11:20] <fictictiousfiber> this is vaguely familiar
[11:20] <ratrace_> My swap disappeared in 16.04.
[11:21] <fictictiousfiber> hiya rat
[11:21] <fictictiousfiber> you helped me before :3
[11:21] <fictictiousfiber> it was awhile ago
[11:21] <fictictiousfiber> also, if you have enough ram, what are you worried about swap for?
[11:22] <fictictiousfiber> 16+ is usually plenty depending on what you're doing right?
[11:22] <TJ-> swap partition is used for hibernation too
[11:22] <GoldCraft> lol no help ):
[11:22] <fictictiousfiber> right.. I've had that same issue in the past
[11:23] <fictictiousfiber> have you tried sudo purge steam?
[11:23] <fictictiousfiber> hmm.. that's not right
[11:23] <fictictiousfiber> something like that though
[11:23] <ratrace_> fictictiousfiber: that's beside the point, the point being that 16.04 is a mess I regret ever upgrading to, and now I have to fight it to do ANY work. I'll be removing it as soon as work and time permits.
[11:23] <fictictiousfiber> that's quite unfortunate
[11:23] <fictictiousfiber> i haven't run into any issues yet..
[11:23] <fictictiousfiber> you put my radar on defcon 12 though
[11:23] <fictictiousfiber> thanks for that
[11:24] <fictictiousfiber> going to restart to see if I can actually use steam now
[11:24] <k1l> ratrace_: is the partition still there? (the upgrade should not have touched that) is it in the fstab? do you use encryption?
[11:25] <ratrace_> fictictiousfiber: defcon numbers are less severe as number grows :)
[11:25] <ratrace_> k1l: it's tere, it's in fstab, yes I use encryption, yes I opened the luks container, yes I did mkswap, yes I did swapon, no I have no active swap, no nothing in dmesg.
[11:25] <walo_> is raid1 or doing some kind of scheduled backup the best solution for a complete n00b trying to learn ubuntu desktop? been trying to figure out how to raid1 for a few hours now but seems so messy :\
[11:25] <Ben64> walo_: backup definitely better
[11:25] <k1l> ratrace_: ok, i am out when it comes to encryption
[11:26] <k1l> walo_: raid is no backup
[11:26] <walo_> great, then I could just drop trying to learn raid then. cheers
[11:28] <zetheroo> as far as I can tell the Safely Remove option doesn't work
[11:29] <ratrace> k1l: also, the swap was working fine after upgrade to 16.04. it just suddenly disappeared with no explanation and no possibility to bring it back.
[11:30] <cfhowlett> ratrace, false.  you can create a swap post-installation
[11:30] <fictictiousfiber> lvmetad is not active ye. using direct activation during sysinit/dev/mapper/ubuntu---vg-root: clean, 212628/13574144 files, 2509636/54289408 blocks

[11:32] <ratrace> ducasse: why encryptfs?
[11:32] <ducasse> ratrace: it's just a script, it actually uses luks
[11:32] <fictictiousfiber> are those error messages going to be an issue?
[11:32] <fictictiousfiber> I get them on boot
[11:33] <cfhowlett> ratrace, you can bring swap back.
[11:33] <ducasse> ratrace: but it's part of the ecryptfs tools
[11:33] <fictictiousfiber> Hateball: kil: will I have an issue with those on-boot error messages I posted?
[11:34] <ratrace> cfhowlett: well, I can't
[11:35] <ducasse> ratrace: if you don't want encrypted swap, just mkswap the partition and run swapon
[11:35] <yogesh> join #chat

[11:44] <ratrace> ducasse: I do want it encrypted and I've got it already set up with luks.
[11:44] <ratrace> it's just that 'swapon' doesn't do anything
[11:45] <ducasse> ratrace: do you run swapon on the mapper device?

[12:17] <huehue_> Hi everybody. Good day!
[12:18] <huehue_> Well. How can I change the default name of the guest session?
[12:18] <huehue_> Guess Session to Childers?
[12:20] <hateball> huehue_: I don't think that is possible
[12:21] <hateball> You could however create a new user named whatever you like, and have a script reset the user account on startup or whatever you like
[12:21] <yogesh> ohk thx so much
[12:22] <yogesh> thumbs up always for u!!.
[12:22] <huehue_> hateball: humm
[12:23] <huehue_> hateball: disable guess session and create new login?
[12:24] <huehue_> hateball: change guest session name impossible! :-(
[12:25] <hateball> huehue_: It seems hardcoded in lightdm
[12:25] <auronandace> huehue_: why would you want to rename the guest session, the whole idea of a guest session is it is temporary
[12:25] <huehue_> auronandace: scholl class
[12:26] <huehue_> auronandace: crazy students kkk
[12:26] <huehue_> auronandace: school**
[12:31] <ubuntu-mate> in dual boot, after install, only windows 7 loads. the grub boot loader doesn't show up.
[12:31] <huehue_> auronandace:  I believe the "guest session" should appear on the "users-setup" and it is possible, enable and disable the session and change your name!
[12:32] <huehue_> auronandace: for you may seem unnecessary, depends on each case, for mine would be useful to rename the "guest session"
[12:32] <rjr6860> in dual boot, after install, only windows 7 loads. the grub boot loader doesn't show up.
[12:33] <huehue_> auronandace: i work more than 300 computer works ubuntu in the high school!
[12:34] <Dev_> Hi, is there a snappy package for last version of wine? I'm using ubuntu 16.04 so I would prefer not using PPAs
[12:36] <TJ-> huehue_: you can disable the Guest session with "allow-guest=false" in the lightdm config
[12:39] <yogesh> how to delete fullfirefox data and after then i want to reinstall a fresh copy???
[12:39] <yogesh> plz help
[12:40] <Jorjj> delete the browser?
[12:40] <huehue_> TJ-: i know, i need change only guess session name to Student
[12:40] <yogesh> how to delete it comeletly
[12:40] <rory> yogesh: You should delete the ~/.mozilla/firefox directory
[12:40] <akik> yogesh: the firefox profile for your user is in $HOME/.mozilla/firefox
[12:40] <rory> yogesh: That will remove all your user's Firefox settings and put it back to a clean install
[12:40] <mcphail> Dev_: not that I can see
[12:40] <rjr6860> in dual boot, after install, only windows 7 loads. the grub boot loader doesn't show up.
[12:48] <Dev_> mcphail ok thank you!
[12:49] <rory> yogesh: How's it going?
[13:03] <asd213> Hi people. Are kernels from this url: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D valid for Ubuntu 16.04 too? The latest ones end in -wily
[13:05] <Pici> asd213: you may want to ask #ubuntu-kernel
[13:06] <asd213> Pici. Will do. Ty
[13:09] <Dumle29> so I need to self sign the virtualbox kernel modules, but nothing seems to be happening when I use the sign-file script at: /usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.0-21-generic/scripts/sign-file
[13:09] <nickg902_> test
[13:09] <Dumle29> currently I'm trying to sign the vboxdrv module, but yeah. not happening
[13:10] <Dumle29> guess I'll reboot to windows anyways :/
[13:14] <aguitel> how configure autologin in lightdm ? where is the .conf file ?
[13:17] <TJ-> aguitel:  /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
[13:18] <aguitel> no exist this .conf file
[13:18] <TJ-> aguitel: correct, so create it
[13:18] <aguitel> /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf  no exist
[13:21] <huehue_> how make account like guest session?
[13:21] <hateball> huehue_: depends what you intend to achieve
[13:22] <huehue_> hateball: account name student same guest session => yes lost all files
[13:22] <hateball> huehue_: I make a user that autologins. Keep a copy of the users $HOME under /root, and set to wipe and copy the contents anew on system startup
[13:23] <huehue_> hateball: howto
[13:23] <TJ-> huehue_: configure a user in lightdm and call the guest-setup.sh script the same way the guest session is created
[13:24] <huehue_> TJ-: i not known :-(
[13:24] <hateball> TJ-: I think his issue is with the naming of the account, it says "Guest" instead of "Student", or something of the sort
[13:24] <hateball> and afaik you can't change the guest sessions name
[13:26] <huehue_> hateball: next ubuntu version add guest session can  manager in users-setup
[13:26] <TJ-> hateball: huehue_ right, but it is hard-coded although possibly translated in different locales to the native language via gettext. However, a guest session is created using shell scripts by lightdm, so calling those same scripts from a defined user would also work
[13:26] <huehue_> hateball:  :-)
[13:26] <huehue_> hateball: enable or disable or change account name! :D
[13:27] <hateball> I do think some things are lost in translation here
[13:27] <huehue_> TJ-: next ubuntu version add guest session can  manager in users-setup, than, disable or enable and change u name! kk
[13:30] <huehue_> TJ-: how calls script in new user?
[13:30] <huehue_> TJ-:  useradd strudent
[13:31] <huehue_> TJ-: passwd -d student
[13:31] <huehue_> useradd student**
[13:31] <huehue_> TJ-: how calls script now?
[13:31] <huehue_> TJ-:  :-)
[13:33] <TheMarius> set up my home network here.. however if i upload files to the server from my other user, its uploaded as the network user which means the server doesnt get full access to deleting the files.. how do i solve this?
[13:35] <TheMarius> i basically want both the network user and server user to have equal rights in these directories .. i set up a group for it, but it sets group priviledges to the network user when uploading from the laptop
[13:38] <TheMarius> aha! i think i solved it :D
[13:38] <TJ-> huehue_: list the contents of the package and then read the scripts for guest "dpkg -L lightdm | grep guest"
[13:41] <pagios> W: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release  Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file) any idea how to solve this?

[13:42] <pagios> thanks dude
[13:44] <pagios> hateball, any idea how to solve this? ImportError: No module named QtCore
[13:44] <ubuntu894> this is new guy here? What software should I use in Ubuntu 16.04 to log in irc, not just via chrome safari
[13:44] <pagios> 'i installed python-qt*
[13:44] <hateball> ubuntu894: hexchat is one option, it is in the software center
[13:45] <hateball> pagios: No
[13:45] <ubuntu894> ok, i will try hexchat
[13:46] <pagios> anyone?
[13:48] <Andrew_Zhang> hello
[13:48] <stevecam> a lot of changes on the new xenial, xchat is removed and so are the fglrx drivers, but do the open source drivers work? not on my system, here i have a black screen and dmesg gives me a message about an invalid rom bios
[13:49] <stevecam> are there fglrx packages available for 16.04 anywhere?
[13:50] <lotuspsychje> !xchat | stevecam
[13:50] <lotuspsychje> stevecam: use the radeon or amdgpu drivers instead
[13:50] <Andrew_Zhang> do you guys use nylas as exchange mail client
[13:51] <Andrew_Zhang> i found nylas isn't stable enough, already crash, or unable to receiver email imiadiately.
[13:52] <Andrew_Zhang> anybody suggest an stable exchange mail client?
[13:52] <stevecam> well, ive never had any stability issues with xchat, but thats not a problem, lotuspsychje i can not use those drivers, they simply do not work, i dont have a BIOS redily available and im in a virtualised guest environment
[13:53] <Andrew_Zhang> does anybody use Nylas N1 as mail client software?
[13:54] <stevecam> lotuspsychje, http://pastebin.com/AKnnNb8k
[13:54] <lotuspsychje> !postfix | Andrew_Zhang
[13:54] <Andrew_Zhang> OK
[13:55] <lotuspsychje> stevecam: not sure mate, i dont mess virtually
[13:55] <TJ-> stevecam: that looks like a Xen VT-d PCI IOMEM issue
[13:56] <Andrew_Zhang> postfix isn't a gui client
[13:56] <stevecam> i didnt try to fix this because the fglrx drivers worked fine, not really sure what to do for a quick solution right now, should of read the documentation but now i have a headless guest
[13:59] <lotuspsychje> Andrew_Zhang: you have a GUI server?
[14:00] <hateball> stevecam: have you made sure radeon isnt blacklisted since using fglrx?
[14:00] <stevecam> hateball, good question
[14:01] <robco> jello everyone. I'm using ladpd, nslc, and pam-mount. I can su, an home folder is created, but I cannot log into Ubuntu with ldap and my mounts aren't mounting. Anyone can help me troubleshoot?
[14:02] <ducasse> Andrew_Zhang: if you have a problem with Nylas you really need to ask them, it's not in the ubuntu repos
[14:02] <Andrew_Zhang> ok,i will try.

[14:08] <yogesh> no its available i can open it from windows
[14:08] <yogesh> os
[14:10] <yogesh> \join #freenode
[14:10] <akik> yogesh: it probably sets a cookie for that message. it says "Hotstar is currently available only in India."
[14:11] <akik> i'm not sure how many people here are from india
[14:11] <alberti> Use a vpn
[14:11] <yogesh> so what should i do?
[14:12] <alberti> Okay which browse are you on?
[14:12] <akik> yogesh: can you watch the videos in windows outside india?
[14:12] <dean_> Hey i'm just after installing ubuntu gnome 16.04. I have this problem where when the screen locks i cannot unlock the screen. Anyone experience this?
[14:12] <cfhowlett> not available here in japan
[14:12] <Pici> akik: methinks yogesh is in india.
[14:13] <yogesh> yes im in india rgt now
[14:13] <alberti> dean #Ubuntu+1
[14:13] <cfhowlett> get a vpn, yogesh
[14:13] <yogesh> after that?
[14:13] <Pici> dean_, alberti: 16.04 is released, support is in #ubuntu now.
[14:13] <akik> he's in india
[14:13] <yogesh> yes im in india
[14:14] <alberti> Okay Pici
[14:14] <alberti> I think it's a kernel issue dean
[14:14] <akik> yogesh: if flash is working for other sites, you should contact hotstar support and ask them
[14:14] <cfhowlett> best you ask in the Indian channel, yogesh
[14:15] <cfhowlett> !in | yogesh
[14:15] <yogesh> i am telling u again aand again
[14:15] <yogesh> that i can acess hotstar flash by windows OS
[14:15] <Newbie_> hello all.
[14:15] <yogesh> but not by ubuntu
[14:16] <cfhowlett> yogesh, and WE see "can't access outside of India".  ask Ubuntu-India channel for support
[14:16] <robco> can someone tell me what's happening with pam here?
[14:16] <akik> yogesh: did you try with google chrome? it has a different flash plugin than in firefox
[14:16] <robco> May  3 10:15:16 robco su[7122]: pam_unix(su:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=1000 euid=0 tty=/dev/pts/17 ruser=robco rhost=  user=whlai
[14:16] <robco> I'm using LDAP for auth
[14:16] <yogesh> yes same problem..
[14:16] <Gazby> Is it considered OK to install the ubuntu-server package post-install?
[14:16] <yogesh> in chrome
[14:17] <cfhowlett> Gazby, yes, but not sure what Ubuntu-server package you refer to.
[14:17] <cfhowlett> Gazby, #ubuntu-server       is your channel
[14:17] <yogesh> how to contact ubuntu india channel command plz..
[14:18] <Gazby> tyvm cfhowlett
[14:18] <DJones> !in | yogesh
[14:18] <Pici> yogesh: /join #ubuntu-in
[14:18] <cfhowlett> Gazby, happy2help!
[14:18] <yogesh> ok
[14:18] <hggdh> Gazby: when you install ubuntu desktop you, by default, have a "server" image (but graphical)
[14:20] <hggdh> Gazby: whatever packages you install do perform your server role will be the same on desktop or servers. There is no server version of any package
[14:20] <dean_> alberti: Looks like i'm going back to unity to :( . Looks like the issue has been around since 2014. I've tested the latest kernel and the kernel that ubuntu is released with. Issue is present in both. Apparently the only work around is to install xscreensaver in place of gnomescreensaver
[14:20] <Gazby> I'll as in the server channel, but for reference I'm talking about http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/ubuntu-server
[14:22] <Pici> Gazby: it should be safe to install that.
[14:22] <Gazby> open-iscsi is a dependency and it fails to start after install
[14:23] <dean_> Fuck it anyway :( I've a massive development environment to set up. After two days I finally had it ready :( now I have to start from scratch tonight :(
[14:23] <Gazby> as I understand it that failure is ignored by the installer, but can't be ignored by apt
[14:23] <Gazby> so I'm not sure how to install it succesfully
[14:24] <hggdh> Gazby: ubuntu-server (as ubuntu-desktop) is a meta-package for system installation. The most important difference between ubuntu-server and ubuntu-desktop are (1) -server installs a few additional server tools; (2) -desktop installs X & friends
[14:24] <Cloudwalker42> HeyHo. Can someone explain me how to merge two partitions (sda & sdb) to one partitiion on a running system? Is this even possible. sdb has unsued space and it would be nice to combine them together. I think its not that easy to scale the current partion sda with sdb. Maybe you have some ideas
[14:24] <dean_> Cloudwalker42 I would advise against doing that. sda and sdb are different drive. Sdb is likely to be removable media
[14:25] <derjur> any ideas on how to troubleshoot why my laptop is connecting to the wrong AP within our corporate SSID?
[14:25] <derjur> it's ignoring the AP near my desk, and connecting to one about 60m away....
[14:25] <Cloudwalker42> dean_: are there no possibilites to merge them together. Its not necessary to do that during runtime. A downtime would be okay
[14:26] <Gazby> hggdh: yep, i'm trying to work out how to successfully install it when open-iscsi fails to start after install
[14:26] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: you would need LVM.
[14:26] <dean_> Cloudwalker42 I'm no linux guru but I doubt that it's even possible. And it's definitely not recommended :P
[14:26] <akik> Cloudwalker42: you are talking about whole disks when you say sda and sdb, not partitions. lvm could work but if you don't use it now it's a bit difficult
[14:26] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: or mdadm
[14:27] <Cloudwalker42> yeah with lvm its very easy resizefs ans such things. I scale lvms on xen dom0s
[14:28] <Cloudwalker42> but yeah i thought that it would be hard to merge them together.
[14:28] <Cloudwalker42> akik: you say its difficult. Thats no problem if it is even possible to perform this operation
[14:28] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: you could stripe them with mdadm, that would work but is a bad idea.
[14:29] <akik> Cloudwalker42: i meant difficult changing your installation from non-lvm into lvm
[14:29] <Cloudwalker42> ducasse: is this dangerous for the consistency of the data ?
[14:29] <Cloudwalker42> akik: ok thx a lot
[14:29] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: yes, if one drive fails you lose everything.
[14:30] <tking0036> There's no way to recover a volume group from a failed physical volume?
[14:30] <tking0036> I'm not sure that's right
[14:31] <Cloudwalker42> ducasse: that seems to be a bad idea hmm. But thx a lot for your help. Its a live system you know ... if this is to risky it wouldn't even do such operations
[14:32] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: can't you just clean out sdb, move a tree across and mount it where needed?
[14:33] <Cloudwalker42> ducasse: thats the only solution or the customer allows me to install lvm
[14:34] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: personally, I'd just mount it and use the extra space.

[14:59] <Homeschool_Dad> HI - I need help recovering my kids computer.  How do I get root access using a usb boot
[14:59] <pintman> mount the harddrive and do whatever needs to be done.
[14:59] <LaserAllan> hi, i need help on how to mount an NFS share permanently in /mnt or something so I can do backups
[15:00] <pintman> LaserAllan, enter it in /etc/fstab.
[15:00] <Homeschool_Dad> @pintman I have done that - and I cannot get it to give me the permissions to either reinstall grub or back up all her files
[15:01] <LaserAllan> 'pintmanthe thing is I have a freenas server running that i have nfs enabled on and I hav eno clue on how to go from here pretty much
[15:01] <akik> LaserAllan: you can enter the nfs share into /etc/fstab
[15:01] <pintman> Homeschool_Dad, what did you do and what was the error?
[15:02] <LaserAllan> akik: I have never done this before so what that should b is beyond me :), should be the path to the file or? it is password protected though
[15:02] <akik> LaserAllan: nfs doesn't work with passwords
[15:03] <LaserAllan> akik: so I basically need to create a new user that doesn't require a password or something then?
[15:03] <akik> LaserAllan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo down on the page you can find the client setup
[15:04] <Homeschool_Dad> @pintman sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[15:04] <pintman> Now you should have access to all files on /dev/sda1 in /mnt
[15:04] <akik> LaserAllan: the nfs server has an access list which says who can mount its directories. it (the permissions) works with the normal uid's
[15:05] <Homeschool_Dad> @pintman how do I get to /mnt?  can I cd /mnt
[15:05] <LaserAllan> akik: OK i will look into it
[15:05] <akik> LaserAllan: so in the best case you would have the same uid's on the server and the client
[15:05] <pintman> Homeschool_Dad, of course you can. You have mounted it to this place. :)
[15:06] <dannymichel> Is there any way to make sure one rsync is dont before attemting to start another?

[15:08] <Cloudwalker42> I asked before if it is possible to merge two partiotions. The current question is: Is it possible to merge two primary partitions on linux. One of this partitions includes the rootfs (sda1) the other one is free allocated space (sdb1)
[15:09] <LaserAllan> akik: lemme get back to you :)
[15:09] <Cloudwalker42> One of you answered me to use mdadm or something like that. Was that answer related to every partition type
[15:11] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: mdadm uses raw partitions, if that's what you mean
[15:11] <akik> Cloudwalker42: setting up mdadm is as difficult as lvm, i'd say
[15:11] <shellbackpacific> any one hear anything about the openssl vulnerability? https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20160503.txt
[15:12] <shellbackpacific> by "anything" i mean details on the package being updated. just curious :)
[15:12] <dannymichel> The best thing to do here would be to create a .sh file with this, and run it? http://stackoverflow.com/a/9390183/1714024
[15:12] <Cloudwalker42> ducasse: with raw partitions you mean something like sda(1) and not sda ?
[15:13] <Homeschool_Dad> @pintman ok - after I got it mounted I tried to back up /home/ to another hd and just reintall 14.04 - I could get some, but not all of the data.  I don't understand why
[15:13] <Homeschool_Dad> @ pintman - is there an easy way to get a private window?
[15:13] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: like sda1, I don't think you can use a raw disk device like sda, but I'm not sure
[15:15] <Cloudwalker42> ducasse: okay hmm i know what u mean. A bit difficult .. maybe I should inform the customer that it is necessary to create a new partition schema to including the new hard disk
[15:15] <Cloudwalker42> or maybe the customer qill accept the "mount" solution
[15:15] <Joel> anyone know where to get the latest openssl for 14.04 is? https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#y2016
[15:15] <Cloudwalker42>  ducasse: thx a lot men
[15:15] <Joel> from apt I'm getting 1.0.1f :\
[15:16] <shellbackpacific> Joel: wondering the same myself
[15:16] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: look, the best way to use the extra space on another disk is to mount it where you need it, not spread everything black by block across them.
[15:16] <Pici> Joel: the patches have been backported to that version.
[15:16] <Pici> Joel, shellbackpacific: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-2959-1/

[15:17] <blizzow> I'm doing an upgrade of a server from wiley to xenial.  The server seems to have gone sideways and locked up during the upgrade of udev.  At one point, the upgrade during udev would error out saying that a "group input already exists exiting" and would just sit there. I removed the input group and it adds the group but still seems to hang up there.  I killed all the apt/dpkg/update jobs and ran apt-get -f install to try and get back on track.  It just hangs
[15:17] <blizzow> anyone have ideas on how to get the xenial upgrade back on the track?
[15:17] <Cloudwalker42> ducasse: Yeah thats the way I use additional space. The customers of my company has huge desires.
[15:17] <shellbackpacific> Pici: alright so maybe i'm retarded but that means the advisory that came out today is already covered in 1.0.1f ?
[15:17] <lotuspsychje> blizzow: is this a production server?
[15:18] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: then you should probably look at something like ZFS raid, do do it right.
[15:18] <shellbackpacific> Pici: nevermind. thanks for the link
[15:18] <pintman> Homeschool_Dad, what do you mean with private window?
[15:19] <blizzow> lotuspsychje: yes.
[15:19] <Homeschool_Dad> @ pintman - newb to IRC hard to follow
[15:19] <lotuspsychje> blizzow: not very recommended to run wily for production, i would suggest 14.04 and wait until official 16.04.1 release upgrade
[15:20] <curlyears> greets
[15:20] <curlyears> any devs in herem today?
[15:20] <pintman> Homeschool_Dad, you are right. This is a high volume chan. There are a lot of messages flowing around. :)
[15:20] <Cloudwalker42> ducasse: we will recommend lvm to our customers
[15:21] <ducasse> Cloudwalker42: then make sure to have backups :)
[15:21] <Cloudwalker42> ducasse: for sure :) thx x3
[15:21] <kelby> anyone able to figure why this commnd doese not run? deploying lubuntu 16.04 and this is my final line of my preseed.cfg : d-i preseed/late-command string "in-target wget http://192.168.1.254/Sources/sources.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list"
[15:22] <curlyears> elby:  it would help if you provided any errormessages or return string
[15:24] <kelby> sadly it doese not return anything or display a error on the machines im testing on. the only reason i know its not being ran is that the apache server shows no log of the file being retrieved
[15:24] <nacc> kelby: are you sure wget is available?
[15:24] <nacc> kelby: just confirming you've tested the same line from a shell from the same installer
[15:25] <Homeschool_Dad> @pintman - Ok I'll live with it.  we are using ubuntu 1404 - the computer hangs up after the password is entered.  - I tried re-intalling grub and it errors out - so I tried backing it up and reintalling 1404, but now I can't get all the data off.  tried searching internet for two days.  no good solutions
[15:25] <blizzow> lotuspsychje: little bit too late for that. It's already running wiley. The server has one small function. Just trying to figure out why it gets stuck at preparing to unpack mdadm.
[15:25] <effectnet> hi Homeschool_Dad did 16.04 install at all?
[15:26] <Homeschool_Dad> at effectnet - I didnot try that.
[15:26] <kelby> ive tested the line in shell and it runs fine. the issue im having is that the installer seems to not call preseed/late-command
[15:26] <noons> anyone here using autopilot?
[15:27] <Homeschool_Dad> @ effectnet - I didnot try that
[15:27] <nacc> kelby: heh, it's preseed/late_command
[15:27] <nacc> kelby: _ not -
[15:27] <kelby> ah
[15:27] <effectnet> oh i was just wondering
[15:28] <Homeschool_Dad> @ effectnet - I just want to recover the data or reinstall grub to make it boot.  or just get root access while using a usb boot
[15:28] <kelby> that might explain why its the only thing not ran...and double checked the example....
[15:28] <kelby> alright. thanks
[15:28] <nacc> kelby: np, gl!
[15:29] <curlyears> howdy, nacc!
[15:31] <pintman> Homeschool_Dad, maybe there is more broken and a new setup will do better.
[15:31] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: why can't you get all the data back?
[15:32] <Homeschool_Dad> @ pintman - I'm ok with that.  How do I backup the data?  I get a permission error when I try to copy it with the GUI
[15:32] <nacc> curlyears: heya -- new issue today? :)
[15:32] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: try gksu nautilus
[15:32] <curlyears> has anyone else noticed that the screen on the install DVD that offers a choice between "trying" and "Installing" ubuntu refers to itself as a "CD?"  interesting, since the image is now slightly over 1GB
[15:33] <curlyears> minor quibble, I'll confess, but still, the devil is in the details
[15:33] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric I tried gksu nautilis - it errors out
[15:33] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: what error?
[15:33] <nacc> curlyears: haven't installed from a DVD in years, sorry :)
[15:33] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: are you doing stuff from a live usb?
[15:33] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric - yes
[15:34] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: ok, try sudo nautilus
[15:34] <curlyears> nacc:  unfortunately, I've head to - repeatedly
[15:34] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric will do brb
[15:34] <pintman> Homeschool_Dad, maybe you have not right permissions. You can use a file explorer with root permission or use the commandline.
[15:36] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric @ pintman this is a cut and paste from terminal : ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo nautilus  (nautilus:4325): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to register client: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files Nautilus-Share-Message: Called "net usershare info" but it failed: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /v
[15:36] <Pici> !tab
[15:36] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: where are you trying to copy files from/to?
[15:37] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric from /home/  to an external HD
[15:37] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: ok, type sudo rsync -av /home /path/to/external/hd
[15:37] <EriC^^> it'll copy the whole "home" dir to the external hd as a single dir
[15:39] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric i'll give it a try
[15:39] <moises> hola
[15:39] <wad> Hey guys. I installed 16.04 LTS! Trying to configure this machine to connect to a VPN. When I click the upper-right network icon (two arrows), then choose "VPN Connections", then "Configure VPN", it opens the dialog to edit my wired ethernet connect. Huh? How do I add a VPN?
[15:40] <wad> Oh, I found my problem. Never mind.
[15:40] <curlyears> OK.   Well, I'm d/l-ing 16.04LTS now.  will burn the DVD when It's done.  (Ihave to use a USB external DVD drive, because the internal DVD is holding my Live-DVD)
[15:41] <effectnet> my one puter wont even usb boot
[15:42] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric brb
[15:42] <curlyears> effectnet:  neither will mine
[15:42] <curlyears> the BIOS offers it as an option, but it ddoesn't seem to work
[15:43] <sruli> how do i pastebin from console?
[15:43] <tgm4883> !pastebinit | sruli
[15:43] <lotuspsychje> effectnet, curlyears there is a nice tool 'plop boot manager' that can be burned on cd to force old computers to boot an usb (with ubuntu)
[15:44] <pintman> 'date | nc termbin.com 9999' will nearly always work.
[15:44] <effectnet> haha lotuspsychje  thx anyway
[15:44] <effectnet> is all good, i did install ubuntu dual boot
[15:44] <effectnet> the puter stopped running windows 7 satisfactorily and so it is now going to relegate over to ubuntu
[15:45] <effectnet> it's old but kinda nice, quad core, 2.3g 4g mem max, single memory transfer though, not dual
[15:45] <curlyears> lotuspsyche:  when I was trying to use a USB boot, it was because the only "viable' copy of the installer I had was on a USB stick, and my system was not booting at all, even from Live-DVD
[15:47] <touil76> Hello. I'm on ubuntu 16.04. And whenever my screen goes to sleep mode due to inactivity, it cannot be woken up by moving the mouse or hitting a key.
[15:47] <coffeeguy> hi does ubuntu use iss-realsecure as a default install service? 16.04
[15:47] <curlyears> lotuspsychje: I am still having the same problems with re-installing 14.04.4 as yesterday.  I have decidd to d/l 16.04 and try that
[15:48] <lotuspsychje> touil76: does the power button bring it back to wakeup?
[15:48] <auronandace> coffeeguy: not sure what you mean by an install service
[15:48] <touil76> lotuspsychje: No it does not.
[15:49] <touil76> When hitting the "parameters" button on my screen, it says : "in economy mode, hit a key or move the mouse"
[15:50] <wad> I'm having trouble getting my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS desktop to install the Cisco VPN plugin to the Network Manager. Anyone here tried this?
[15:50] <lotuspsychje> touil76: we solved a suspend issue today with a higher kernel 4.6 on 16.04, perhaps also try?
[15:50] <lotuspsychje> !mainline | touil76
[15:50] <coffeeguy> service is up and running with a fresh install of ubuntu 16.04?
[15:50] <touil76> I'm not wanting to change the default kernel.
[15:50] <auronandace> coffeeguy: what do you mean by service?
[15:51] <lotuspsychje> touil76: some cases needs it...
[15:51] <touil76> What I know is that the problem doesn't occur on another computer running 16.05
[15:51] <azizLIGHT> how do i downgrade an update i made to firefox through software updates
[15:51] <touil76> 16.04.
[15:51] <lotuspsychje> touil76: it really depends on the machine itself
[15:51] <auronandace> azizLIGHT: downgrading isn't really supported
[15:52] <touil76> It seems related to the graphics card which is an old radeon x1300
[15:52] <coffeeguy> i was just checking my router and i have three connections on local network ips that i can't account for(no physical connection) did a portscan on each with only port 920/tcp open iss-realsecure on each
[15:52] <lotuspsychje> touil76: is the radeon driver loaded correctly?
[15:52] <azizLIGHT> auronandace: so i have to uninstall and then install from a diffferent source with a deb?
[15:53] <lotuspsychje> touil76: sudo lshw -C video
[15:53] <coffeeguy> was just wondering if ubuntu set those up
[15:53] <adx_> So whats up with the absolutely shitty  GPU performance in 16.04?
[15:54] <lotuspsychje> adx_: please keep the language familly friendly
[15:54] <touil76> The driver is loaded correctly
[15:54] <daed> adx_: i've gone through two GPUs, both nvidia and AMD, on 16.04, no issues with either?
[15:54] <lotuspsychje> touil76: is it a desktop or laptop?
[15:54] <touil76> And I must add that everything worked flawlessly with ubuntu 14.04
[15:54] <ubuntu524> @eric are you still up?
[15:54] <touil76> It is a desktop.
[15:54] <coffeeguy> i mean i'm looking at the router and it has the internet, my computer, and ip cam
[15:55] <lotuspsychje> touil76: ok, add a new bug please
[15:55] <auronandace> azizLIGHT: that sounds about right but bear in mind if you are not using the default ubuntu repo then you'll need to take care of any updates to that app yourself
[15:55] <lotuspsychje> !bug | touil76
[15:55] <coffeeguy> and three other ip's registered as physical connections
[15:55] <touil76> I did add a new bug.
[15:55] <touil76> Already.
[15:55] <lotuspsychje> touil76: can i see the url?
[15:55] <touil76> I was wondering if someone here could help.
[15:55] <azizLIGHT> auronandace: is there a way to test how a new version of software behaves before updating
[15:55] <azizLIGHT> auronandace: using the offical repo
[15:55] <lotuspsychje> touil76: i would strongly suggest testing higher kernel
[15:56] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric are you still here?
[15:56] <coffeeguy> hmm maybe a better question for #networking, just wanted to know if ubuntu had an open service: iss-realsecure
[15:56] <touil76> lotuspsychje. Is it reversible ? Can I rever to the normal kernel after that ?
[15:56] <lotuspsychje> touil76: yes
[15:56] <sruli> EriC^^: hi, you once gave me a command to delete boot from efi (efibootmgr -B -b <hex number>) my efibootmgr -v is at paste.ubuntu.com/16203310 which is the hex number ?
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> touil76: but share the bug first plz?
[15:57] <touil76> https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577170
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> touil76: tnx
[15:57] <brym> help :(
[15:57] <auronandace> azizLIGHT: i'm guessing a firefox update broke one of your addons. it would be better to complain to the addon dev that try to use an older version
[15:58] <brym> i've accidentally deleted the virt bridges in vmm, and now can't reach any websites.
[15:58] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: how'd it go?
[15:58] <auronandace> azizLIGHT: you can simulate an update with certain flag but i don't know about testing beforehand
[15:58] <lotuspsychje> touil76: ok looks good, try a 4.6 or 4.8 mainline kernel and add your experiences to the bug
[15:58] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric poorly
[15:59] <touil76> HOw to do it ,
[15:59] <touil76> ?
[15:59] <brym> can't update from apt-get either
[15:59] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: why?
[15:59] <lotuspsychje> touil76: its described in !mainline
[15:59] <EriC^^> sruli: these are the hex numbers, 0000, 0001, etc
[15:59] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric when I do sudo fdisk -l i get : /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root doesn't contain a valid partition table
[16:00] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: that's fine i think
[16:00] <touil76> I'm going to try. Thank you.
[16:00] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: try sudo mount /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root /mnt
[16:00] <sruli> EriC^^: do i need to give the full "Boot0001*" or just "0001" ?
[16:00] <EriC^^> sruli: just the numbers
[16:00] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric ok
[16:00] <sruli> EriC^^: as always many thanks
[16:00] <EriC^^> sruli: no problem
[16:01] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric it took that command
[16:01] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: ok, try ls /mnt/home
[16:02] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric  ok
[16:03] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric I think we are getting somewhere!  It mounted Lindsey
[16:04] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: ok, try ls /mnt/home/Lindsey to see if the data is there
[16:05] <Mouaad> hello, i have a problem, ubuntu logs me out randomly !
[16:05] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric  ls: cannot access /mnt/home/Lindsey: No such file or directory
[16:05] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: try ls /mnt/home/lindsey
[16:06] <touil76> There is no xenial version on the page. Only wily
[16:06] <azizLIGHT> another thing that changed is that i can no longer scroll down a bit at a time by clicking the scroll bar. now when i click, it takes you directly to that spot in the scroll bar, instead of going down a bit towards that spot on the scroll bar
[16:06] <Mouaad> and i am using ubuntu 16.04 ! http://paste.ubuntu.com/16203583/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/16203594/
[16:06] <azizLIGHT> is there a setting to undo that in ff 46
[16:06] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric it looks like it took
[16:07] <Mouaad> this become more and more often (today happend like every 5 mins while using eclipse..)
[16:07] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric can I copy the data with the GUI?
[16:07] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: yeah, try sudo nautilus
[16:08] <touil76> lotuspsychje : there is no xenial new version of the kernel.
[16:08] <Tegu> gksudo, rather?

[16:08] <rfleming> Do the freedesktop.org / realmd people have a channel?
[16:08] <EriC^^> usually yes Tegu he's on a live usb with no gksu, doesn't really matter
[16:09] <somsip> !alis | rfleming
[16:09] <Tegu> ah, nevermind then
[16:09] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: try sudo -i
[16:09] <EriC^^> then type nautilus
[16:09] <rfleming> somsip, sweet
[16:10] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric nautilus popped up a filemanager and it looks like something is still running in terminal
[16:10] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: copying the data with rsync is pretty easy and it's nicer cause it checksums the data too so you know it's all copied right
[16:11] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: it's a bit slower i guess cause it does checksum stuff though
[16:11] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: what do you think? rsync?
[16:11] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric - i'll give it a shot
[16:11] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: ok, where do you want to copy the data to?
[16:12] <Homeschool_Dad> do you have the syntax for rsync
[16:12] <Homeschool_Dad> ?
[16:12] <EriC^^> yes, it's sudo rsync -av /source /destination
[16:12] <Mouaad> Any ideas why is ubuntu randomly reloging, please ?
[16:12] <EriC^^> Mouaad: check ~/.xsession-errors maybe?
[16:13] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric ok - trying
[16:14] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric - can I close the current terminal and open a new one?  It is not responding since the first nautilus.
[16:14] <rjr6860> I cannot get my dual boot to load the grub loader. I have been trying this for a couple of hours via web searches.
[16:14] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: yeah
[16:14] <Homeschool_Dad> ok - ty

[16:20] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: ok, try sudo rsync -av /mnt/home/lindsey/ /dest    (take note of the trailing "/" after lindsey, it's needed so it copies lindsey as a dir to the destination)
[16:21] <EriC^^> soulisson: give it another go, it tends to do that sometimes
[16:21] <rubiksmomo> Could someone please tell me how to setup a graphics driver? Whenever I install any nvidia driver I just get black/blank screen for login screen. I have GeForce GTX 960M + Intel. My filesystem is encrypted.
[16:21] <EriC^^> rjr6860: you installed windows first then ubuntu?
[16:21] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: disable the intel one and install latest nvidia driver from ppa
[16:21] <rjr6860> EriC^^, yes. Windows on for a long time. Then ubuntu. Linux mint worked without issue.
[16:22] <soulisson> EriC^^, I have that now: Use netcat.
[16:22] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: How do I disable Intel GPU?
[16:22] <EriC^^> rjr6860: what happens when you boot after installing ubuntu?
[16:22] <tonyt> if you want disable onboard video you do it through the bios
[16:22] <EriC^^> soulisson: ok, do you have pastebinit installed?
[16:23] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: install nvidia-prime and enable performance mode
[16:23] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric^^ I think we got it!
[16:23] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: great!
[16:23] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: OK, thanks. I'll try.
[16:23] <rjr6860> EriC^^, boots to windows, no options
[16:23] <Homeschool_Dad> Thank you!!!
[16:23] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: no problem
[16:23] <brym> vmm question guys: i've deleted the virtual networks, storage and interfaces from connection details of a vm i no longer wanted. but it's now affecting my regular web browsing; no sites resolve.
[16:24] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: wich driver did you install?
[16:24] <rjr6860> EriC^^, now I think I've got folders in my root window that shouldn't be there from trying to fix this.
[16:24] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: restart the live usb before unplugging the external hdd, or unmount it with sudo umount /dest , then unplug
[16:24] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: I think the one I have now is nvidia-361
[16:24] <soulisson> EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/16204019/

[16:26] <brym> anybody
[16:26] <soulisson> EriC^^, no
[16:26] <EriC^^> soulisson: did you try restarting?
[16:26] <lotuspsychje> touil76: ok thats not good...update your bug mentioning you tested the newer kernel

[16:28] <EriC^^> rjr6860: try sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
[16:28] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric^^ i used sudo rsync -av /mnt/home/lindsey/ /media/ubuntu/MyPassport  and it backed it up to the internal HD
[16:28] <soulisson> Is there a diagnosis tool I can use to check if there are damaged sectors?
[16:28] <rubiksmomo> Should I uninstall nvidia once again to get the GUI up and configure nvidia-prime?
[16:29] <rjr6860> EriC^^, done
[16:29] <pat_rick> shekhar: I think it should be pretty straightforward
[16:29] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: is there a space in the My Passport?
[16:29] <rjr6860> EriC^^, isn't sda8 my boot sector?
[16:29] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: try ls /media/ubuntu
[16:30] <pat_rick> shekhar: there's also a tutorial on youtube, maybe it helps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBkjXV1aSRA
[16:30] <EriC^^> rjr6860: sda8 is the boot partition i think
[16:30] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric^^ MyPassort is the external HD, but it went to the internal HD
[16:30] <EriC^^> rjr6860: type the following line
[16:30] <compdoc> then the rsync command was flawed
[16:30] <EriC^^> rjr6860: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[16:30] <rjr6860> EriC^^, anyway did what you suggested. mounted sda7
[16:30] <akik>  /last souli
[16:30] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: i think there was a typo
[16:31] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: type "mount | nc termbin.com 9999"
[16:31] <rjr6860> EriC^^, error bash: syntax error near unexpected token `do'
[16:31] <tgm4883> Has anyone used altermime to add a multiline disclaimer to all postfix emails? I've got it adding it, but it's making my disclaimer a single line which looks weird
[16:31] <EriC^^> soulisson: there's smartctl
[16:31] <EriC^^> soulisson: sudo apt-get install smartmontools
[16:31] <squinty> soulisson,  Disks -> highlight the drive in question -> top right hand corner of Disks three lined icon -> Smart Data and self tests
[16:31] <EriC^^> soulisson: sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX
[16:31] <yvne> hey! i installed ubuntu 16.04 lts just recent. i checked System Settings>Security&Privacy>Search, and it was toggled to Off. however i noticed Unity Tweak Tool>Search>Show "More Suggestions" ticked. is this supposed to be the case?
[16:31] <Mouaad> EriC^^ : any ideas please ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/16203874/
[16:32] <soulisson> EriC^^, I think my hard drive has to support SMART, right?
[16:32] <EriC^^> rjr6860: did you type "for i in /dev .... " ?
[16:32] <compdoc> soulisson, most do
[16:32] <Homeschool_Dad> @ eric ^^ It mounted a URL
[16:32] <soulisson> compdoc, ok
[16:32] <lotuspsychje> soulisson: use ubuntu's disk tool to start a smart test
[16:32] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: ok, paste the link here
[16:33] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: it'll show the output of the command "mount" which shows where the partitions are mounted
[16:33] <compdoc> soulisson, but theres also a bios option to enable it, for some dumb reason
[16:33] <Homeschool_Dad> http://termbin.com/gfvi
[16:33] <rjr6860> EriC^^, OK. got it all this time.
[16:33] <shekhar> pat_rick:  it seems we need to install Oracle java to use Intellij but I have Open JDK locally
[16:33] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: ok, there's a space in the path
[16:33] <rjr6860> EriC^^, ok. done with that.
[16:33] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: try sudo rsync -av /mnt/home/lindsey/ "/media/ubuntu/My Passport"
[16:34] <pat_rick> shekhar: I'm not sure if it absolutely requires Oracle Java, e.g. Eclipse runs fine with OpenJDK
[16:34] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: the quotes take care of the space in the path
[16:34] <soulisson> lotuspsychje, I use kubuntu, what's the name of the package?
[16:34] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric^^  So leave the quotes in?
[16:35] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: also, you can use tab completion for commands, like /mnt/home<tab> should complete stuff or give you a list of possibilities then type the first few letters and hit tab again
[16:35] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: yes
[16:35] <EriC^^> rjr6860: ok, type sudo chroot /mnt
[16:35] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric ^^  trying
[16:35] <abel_> hi
[16:35] <rjr6860> EriC^^, ok got that
[16:35] <shekhar> pat_rick:  but it  is still running with OpenJDk . A  warning : OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: ignoring option MaxPermSize=350m; support was removed in 8.0
[16:36] <lotuspsychje> soulisson: gnome-disks
[16:36] <abel_> anyone worked with cryptsetup ?
[16:36] <EriC^^> Mouaad: no idea, looks like some segfault, no idea about it
[16:36] <rubiksmomo> How can I disable Intel GPU using nvidia-prime from terminal? Or should I uninstall nvidia to get the GUI working?
[16:36] <shekhar> pat_rick:  is it ok, or we should do something else??
[16:36] <Homeschool_Dad> @eric^^  where do I ship the case of beer I owe you?
[16:36] <pat_rick> shekhar: that doesn't sound critical to me, but I'm no java developer ;)
[16:36] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: after installed nvidia-prime, enable performance mode in nvidia-settings
[16:37] <EriC^^> Homeschool_Dad: :D
[16:37] <EriC^^> rjr6860: type "mount -a"
[16:37] <pat_rick> shekhar: alternatively there are many tutorials available online on how to install Oracle Java in Ubuntu
[16:37] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: you could try to get in desktop with a nomodeset or recoverymode/failsafeX
[16:37] <pat_rick> just in case you really need that instead of OpenJDK
[16:38] <rjr6860> EriC^^, mount -a: command not found
[16:38] <EriC^^> rjr6860: hmm
[16:38] <EriC^^> are you at a root shell right now?
[16:38] <EriC^^> root@....# ?
[16:38] <rjr6860> EriC^^, quotes around it or not?
[16:38] <EriC^^> no quotes
[16:38] <shekhar> pat_rick: but i need openJDk for other purposes
[16:38] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: nvidia-settings says the control display is undefined. Maybe I'll try failsafeX then.
[16:39] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: ok good luck
[16:39] <rjr6860> EriC^^, without quotes did not give error
[16:39] <rubiksmomo> Thanks!
[16:39] <shekhar> pat_rick:  so i need to clarify soemthings , BTW it seems good so far
[16:40] <shekhar> pat_rick:  thanks for your help :)
[16:40] <pat_rick> shekhar: no problem, I haven't done much
[16:40] <brym> i try to ping google.com and it errors: unknown host google.com - any idea please guys?
[16:41] <EriC^^> rjr6860: ok, type grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
[16:42] <rjr6860> EriC^^, grub-install: warning: Sector 32 is already in use by the program `FlexNet'; avoiding it.  This software may cause boot or other problems in future.  Please ask its authors not to store data in the boot track.
[16:42] <rjr6860> Installation finished. No error reported.
[16:42] <EriC^^> rjr6860: ok, usually that flexnet thing is just a warning but grub still works
[16:42] <EriC^^> (usually)
[16:42] <EriC^^> rjr6860: try update-grub
[16:43] <EriC^^> if it doesn't work you have to use dd to remove it from the mbr
[16:43] <rjr6860> EriC^^, ok done
[16:43] <EriC^^> rjr6860: ok, type exit and try rebooting
[16:43] <rjr6860> EriC^^, ok - thanks
[16:45] <soulisson> EriC^^, sorry, disconnection issue, here the output of smartctl but I'm unable to understand it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16204465/
[16:45] <rubiksmomo> How do I disable Intel GPU without a working X (even failsafeX results in login loop)?
[16:47] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: you could try sudo apt purge nvidia* to get in with nouveau, then add the latest driver with ppa
[16:47] <EriC^^> soulisson: the hdd is dying
[16:47] <EriC^^> soulisson: not an expert about this, others can confirm as well i guess
[16:47] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: I've tried that already. Just black/blank screen for login.
[16:47] <soulisson> EriC^^, can you explain how you came up to this diagnosis?
[16:48] <Optiprism> Hey, how do I give a user the rights to do anything he wants in his home directory?
[16:48] <EriC^^> soulisson: there are 3 current pending sectors
[16:49] <EriC^^> and Reallocated_Sector_Ct   0x0033   050   050   036    Pre-fail  Always       -       1036
[16:49] <rick6860> EriC^^, it worked.
[16:49] <EriC^^> soulisson: i think those are dead sectors that are being reallocated
[16:49] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: try: sudo prime-select nvidia
[16:49] <EriC^^> (bad sectors)
[16:49] <compdoc> 1036 bad sectors
[16:49] <genii> Optiprism: System defaults are already set that way, that the user has read-write-execute priveleges to anything in their own directory
[16:49] <compdoc> thats a lot
[16:49] <rick6860> EriC^^, so now I have a folder called boot and one called grub on the / partition. Should I leave those?
[16:50] <compdoc> soulisson, back up your files and buy a new drive
[16:50] <soulisson> EriC^^, compdoc thanks
[16:50] <Optiprism> I created a user with "adduser" and he doesn't appear to have access to his directory
[16:50] <EriC^^> rick6860: boot is normal
[16:50] <EriC^^> rick6860: you shouldn't have a /grub there though, should be /boot/grub
[16:50] <soulisson> compdoc, I wish but I'm not even able to mount my hard drive
[16:50] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: Still in login loop. Should I reboot?
[16:51] <compdoc> soulisson, can you boot the live ubuntu dvd?
[16:51] <EriC^^> rick6860: did you run any grub-install commands earlier? grub-install --boot-dir ... or something ?
[16:51] <compdoc> or usb stick
[16:51] <rick6860> EriC^^, when i was trying all of that myself I was attempting to mnt the wrong partition.
[16:51] <rick6860> EriC^^, can I just delete those?
[16:51] <genii> Optiprism: Is the new user's directory on a foreign filesystem like NTFS or something else odd like that?
[16:51] <EriC^^> soulisson: if i were you and i had important data on it, i'd make an image of the hdd very quickly
[16:51] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: try ctrl alt f1 and sudo service lightdm restart
[16:52] <Optiprism> Nope
[16:52] <EriC^^> soulisson: you could always recover stuff using photorec etc.
[16:52] <soulisson> compdoc, it's an external hard drive
[16:52] <Optiprism> And I also had to create the user directory per hand for some reason
[16:52] <EriC^^> rick6860: yeah
[16:52] <compdoc> soulisson, oh.
[16:52] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: Done. Still in login loop.
[16:52] <soulisson> compdoc, so I have 1036 damaged sectors?
[16:52] <EriC^^> rick6860: sudo rm -r /grub
[16:52] <compdoc> more than that, since there are Pending sectors
[16:52] <genii> Optiprism: Did you run adduser with sudo?
[16:53] <huehue_> https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/1325545
[16:53] <Optiprism> yeah
[16:53] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: out of ideas then
[16:54] <compdoc> soulisson, as time goes by, more and more will go bad
[16:54] <genii> Optiprism: What was the name of the new user you attempted to add? Possible a system reserved one
[16:54] <Optiprism> git
[16:54] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: OK, thanks for help
[16:54] <soulisson> compdoc, ok, what are Reallocated sectors and pending sectors, I'm sorry i'm not familiar with these notions
[16:55] <compdoc> soulisson, reallocated are sectors that have been tested and are bad. Pending means they are still being tested, but are likely bad
[16:56] <compdoc> soulisson, whatever files and data were on those sectors are bad too
[16:56] <compdoc> including directory structures
[16:56] <nairwolf> How to specify permissions of all my directorys to 755 and all my files to 644 in the same time ?
[16:57] <rubiksmomo> Could someone please tell me how to fix a login loop? I installed nvidia-361 and nvidia-prime. I have GeForce GTX 960M (3D adapter) + Intel (VGA adapter).
[16:57] <soulisson> compdoc, ok, thanks, so if I'm unlucky these sectors might affect the file system and in that case it will be hard to recover
[16:57] <compdoc> exaclty. its random. a roll of the dice
[16:57] <compdoc> you were unlucky
[16:58] <EriC^^> nairwolf: find -type d, type -f
[16:58] <dannymichel> My login looks like this now instead of the default Ubuntu login. How do I switch back
[16:58] <dannymichel> https://i.imgur.com/gmUQzzL.jpg
[16:59] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: tryed nomodeset also?
[16:59] <EriC^^> nairwolf: sudo find /path -type d -exec chmod 755 '{}' \;
[16:59] <rick6860> EriC^^, indicates no such file. But when I go to disks and open folder from there, it shows grub.
[16:59] <EriC^^> nairwolf: sudo find /path -type f -exec chmod 644 '{}' \;
[16:59] <Optiprism> I deleted the user and made a couple new ones seems to have solved the problem
[16:59] <nairwolf> oh, thank you so much EriC^^ ;)
[16:59] <EriC^^> nairwolf: no problem
[17:00] <nairwolf> oh, but is it recursive ?
[17:00] <EriC^^> nairwolf: yeah
[17:00] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: Not lately (with this config). I'll try it, thanks.
[17:00] <nairwolf> ok ;)

[17:08] <squinty> c10ud, fwiw, just tried your command and no error reported on reinstallation
[17:08] <c10ud> maybe sf doesn't like me :/ however I probably found a solution
[17:08] <c10ud> http://askubuntu.com/questions/153928/failure-to-download-extra-data-files-after-installing-ttf-mscorefonts-installe
[17:10] <rubiksmomo> I still get blank screen for login. Adding "nomodeset" didn't help. Any ideas?
[17:11] <z4c> anyone having problems with openvpn and register-dns?
[17:12] <z4c> getting  Unrecognized option or missing parameter(s) in 203.ovpn:16: register-dns
[17:12] <z4c> using same config on windows and it works flawless
[17:12] <squinty> c10ud,  re mouse   default settings was way to fast for my tastes so I turned it all the way down in System Settings -> Mouse and Touchpad
[17:13] <c10ud> squinty, uhh I only have a slider for double-click speed, I think
[17:14] <ash_workz> what do you call the window-bar thing on the left?
[17:14] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: is there a bios option to disable intel graphics?
[17:14] <ash_workz> the dock?
[17:14] <ash_workz> taskbar?
[17:14] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: did you disable fastboot?
[17:14] <jcastro> ash_workz: launcher
[17:14] <squinty> c10ud,  might different if using some flavour other than unity
[17:15] <ash_workz> is there terminology to describe an application on the launcher that has several lit dots
[17:15] <ash_workz> ?
[17:15] <ash_workz> a window group?
[17:15] <c10ud> squinty, I'm using unity, I think I need to check if ubuntu-desktop is installed then..
[17:15] <ash_workz> an instance group?
[17:15] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: Nothing about graphics in BIOS. Never played with fastboot. Where is it?
[17:15] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: do you dualboot?
[17:16] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: No, just Ubuntu
[17:16] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: ok then nvm, can you reach into a liveusn mode?
[17:16] <lotuspsychje> liveusb
[17:18] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: GUI works normally if I uninstall nvidia
[17:18] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: ah thats good news
[17:18] <squinty> ash_workz,  just out of curiosity what is the application name?
[17:19] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: purge nvidia then, goto desktop, add the latest driver ppa and install the 364 one
[17:19] <lotuspsychje> rubiksmomo: +enable performance mode from nvidia-settings
[17:19] <ash_workz> squinty: I want to describe something about ubuntu that I lack the terminology for... it happens with any application, but my currently open ones are inkscape, gimp and firefox
[17:20] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: OK, lemme know when I have to GUI up
[17:20] <squinty> ash_workz,  never seen that here (on unity)  sounds like some kind of video/icon corruption
[17:20] <rubiksmomo> lotuspsychje: I'll let you know*
[17:20] <Harry-GAA001> Hi folks, I've had to rebuild my server and have installed vsftpd but I still can't connect via filezilla. I think I've opened port 21 correctly. Can anyone help please? Ubuntu16.04
[17:21] <ash_workz> squinty: I'm using stock unity too
[17:21] <MonkeyDust> Harry-GAA001  thee's also #ubuntu-server
[17:21] <ash_workz> they're little lights next to applications on the launcher which indicate open windows
[17:22] <dannymichel> I'm on Ubuntu 16 and my default login switched to this one https://i.imgur.com/Cu8SVZE.jpg not sure how. How would I switch back?
[17:22] <Harry-GAA001> ok, thanks for that MonkeyDust but I got help in here last time so I'm hoping this room is good enough :)
[17:22] <squinty> ash_workz,  ahhhh....yes that displays here too   no idea if there is a special terminology for them though lol
[17:23] <ash_workz> squinty: well, not the lights specifically, I meant, I don't want to say, "when you click on the application" because that's misleading, and I don't want to say, "when you click on the window group" because I don't believe anyone will know what I'm talking about
[17:24] <lumidee> hi, debian testing should have generally newer packages than ubuntu, because a ubuntu release takes most packages from testing at one point of a time right? so during the time debian testing got already newer package versions whereas ubuntu has still the old testing packages?
[17:24] <ash_workz> squinty: but the lead in is (and I would appreciate if someone could throw me some vocabulary here) when you click on an application on the launcher that has multiple windows open, it takes you into this mode where you can see all the windows
[17:25] <ash_workz> that has the window actions (close, minimize, restore/maximize) available but they perform no actions... is that just because this "mode" is contained in a virtual "window" or something?
[17:26] <OerHeks> lumidee, maybe, maybe not, what package are you referring too ?
[17:26] <akik> Harry-GAA001: can you access the ftp server with the cli ftp client?
[17:26] <Harry-GAA001> Haven't tried, I only tend to use filezilla. I'll try tht now
[17:32] <squinty> ash_workz,  http://www.linuceum.com/Distros/osUnityUsing.php  might give a clue
[17:33] <lumidee> OerHeks, bareos
[17:35] <MonkeyDust> !find bareos
[17:35] <MonkeyDust> !info bareos
[17:35] <xangua> ash_workz: "expose"
[17:35] <OerHeks> lumidee, bareos is the same in debian and ubuntu (wily)
[17:36] <ReScO> when will https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1576816 get addressed?
[17:36] <Caelum> what is the app to enable "third party repositories"
[17:37] <Harry-GAA001> Ok so I seem to be able to get as far as the password bit for CLI ftp connection but I can't remember the password. On filezilla it says the password is ok. I've tried various combinations but I can't get the password to work.
[17:38] <OerHeks> ReScO, confirm that bug, if you depend on a fix
[17:38] <akik> Harry-GAA001: it usually uses your own linux level password
[17:38] <Harry-GAA001> You mean the root account password?
[17:39] <akik> Harry-GAA001: no. and please don't configure it to allow root logins
[17:39] <Harry-GAA001> No I won't lol, was just checking what you meant
[17:39] <lumidee> OerHeks, i was comparing debian testing with ubuntu. debian testing has bareos 15.2: https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=stretch&searchon=names&keywords=bareos
[17:40] <squinty> Caelum,  Software and Updates -> Other Software   maybe what you are lookin for
[17:40] <akik> Harry-GAA001: is this vsftpd installation on which ubuntu version? i tested it on ubuntu 14.04 and didn't have any problems
[17:41] <akik> Harry-GAA001: by default allowed normal user account login
[17:41] <OerHeks> lumidee, oops, the top package is for the nex yaketakytak https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bareos
[17:41] <OerHeks> = 15.2
[17:41] <ReScO> OerHeks, i made the bug report
[17:41] <Harry-GAA001> 16.04 - Someone helped me to get it working about a week ago but I've had to rebuild the server and now I can't remember what we did to fix it
[17:42] <akik> Harry-GAA001: the #ubuntu logs are available on http
[17:43] <akik> http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2016/
[17:44] <lumidee> OerHeks, hm, you mean an update of yakkety 16.10 will have bareos 15.2 or do you mean the next ubuntu release after yakketi?
[17:45] <teward> lumidee: he means that Yakkety 16.10 will have the software in it.
[17:47] <OerHeks> lumidee, 16.10 yakety yak
[17:47] <lumidee> oh i see, yakkety will be released in oct, thought it was already released, because i found yakkety in the repo search :)

[17:52] <rubiksmomo> I installed nvidia 364 and I have nvidia-prime set to performance/Nvidia. I get blank screen for login and the system does not respond to ctrl+alt+F1. Got to terminal through safemode. Could someone please tell me how to get the nvidia driver working? :S
[17:53] <brym> ok, have i been muted? i've been trying to get help all afternoon, but nobody's replied.
[17:54] <tgm4883> brym: yes I can see you
[17:54] <brym> thnks, tgm4883
[17:55] <brym> don't suppose you'd know how to help me resolve this?
[17:55] <tgm4883> brym: I could look, but I'm off to a meeting righ tnow
[17:56] <brym> tgm4883,  much appreciated
[17:57] <brym> tgm4883: it's been happening since i removed interfaces, storage, and virtual networks, and vm from an unwanted vmm image
[17:59] <tgm4883> brym: so what exactly is empty?
[17:59] <brym> the /etc/resolvconf dir, except for the update-libc.d dir
[18:00] <brym> /etc/resolv.conf is a broken symlink
[18:01] <dannymichel> I can't start Ubuntu and I don't know why. It's stuck on that purple screen. I can get to a command prompt by pressing control alt f2 but I don't know what to do next. Can anyone help me?
[18:01] <tgm4883> brym: this is a server or desktop install?
[18:01] <brym> desktop, upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04
[18:01] <brym> was working fine until i tooled around with vmm :/
[18:01] <squinty> brym,  http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=resolvconf&mode=exactfilename&suite=xenial&arch=any    might give a clue as to what to reinstall
[18:02] <brym> squinty: thanks, but i'm unable to resolve any websites
[18:03] <rubiksmomo> I installed nvidia 364 and I have nvidia-prime set to performance/Nvidia. I get blank screen for login and the system does not respond to ctrl+alt+F1. Got to terminal through safemode. Could someone please tell me how to get the nvidia driver working? :S
[18:03] <akik> brym: create a /etc/resolv.conf with e.g. google's dns servers
[18:04] <brym> akik: deleting the broken link first, yeah?
[18:04] <akik> brym: yes
[18:05] <akik> only thing it needs for now is nameserver 8.8.8.8
[18:05] <squinty> dannymichel,  Start a reboot and hold down the Shift key. Press the e key on getting the GRUB bootloader menu. Using arrow keys navigate to and delete quiet and splash and type the word nomodeset in their place. Press Ctrl and X at the same time to continue booting    it gets rid of the splash screen etc so you may be able to see where it's hanging up
[18:05] <akik> brym: did somebody already tell you that there's no upgrade option from 14.04 to 16.04 currently?
[18:07] <brym> they did, akik. this has only happened since i messed with an unwanted image in vm. i removed some settings i feel i probably shouldn't have.
[18:09] <dannymichel> Thanks squinty
[18:09] <brym> fsl_ has helped me get ping working again, and apt-get is currently (slowly) checking for updates
[18:10] <brym> and websites resolve again...
[18:12] <drab> hi, does anybody know how to set global input systems? I've added chinese input, but I have to manually run fcitx config tool and add it if I want it to work for a new user
[18:13] <drab> I've noticed that if I do that, it modifies ~/.config/fcitx/profile and adds it to the EnabledIMList . is there such a thing at ssytem level? can't find it
[18:15] <squinty> brym,   openresolv, resolvconf  cruft-common cruft-common   these are the packages returned when searching for resolvconf at http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[18:16] <squinty> brym, sorry last one should have been bash-completion
[18:17] <brym> cheers, squinty. just waiting for apt-get to to finish attempting to update
[18:17] <brym> it's on Get:14 atm
[18:19] <Bres> Hey. I'm having an issue with VirtualBox 5.0.20 and USB drives. Just to rule out the common issues, I'm added in users; I've installed exp and installed additions; I can add the USB devices themselves and they show up in guests. I just can't open the devices themselves. Same issue in all guests I've tried (16.04 host > 16.04 guest, Mint 17.03 guest, Windows 8 guest). Anyone know a solution to this?
[18:20] <ankl> Hello together.
[18:21] <reisio> hullo
[18:22] <nomoney4me2> hi all
[18:22] <ankl> Could somebody help me with the following problem. My current system Ubuntu 16.04 LTS has a problem to connect to wpa accesspoints.
[18:22] <ali__> hello dear
[18:22] <reisio> nomoney4me2: sup
[18:22] <ali_> whats up
[18:22] <nomoney4me2> reisio, hi! lol
[18:22] <reisio> lawl
[18:22] <ankl> wpa_supplicant[2121]: wlp2s0: SME: Deauth request to the driver failed
[18:23] <ReScO> when will https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1576816 get addressed?
[18:24] <ankl> any ideas?
[18:24] <nacc> ReScO: does that happen with mainline?
[18:24] <ReScO> nacc, yup
[18:25] <ReScO> has been happening for a looooooong time now
[18:25] <ReScO> 6 years for me now
[18:25] <nacc> ReScO: so with 4.6-rc6?
[18:25] <nacc> ReScO: if so, file a bugzilla.kernel.org or e-mail lkml?
[18:26] <ReScO> nacc, has been happening since kernel 2.6 iirc
[18:26] <nacc> ReScO: you can also try and cc the maintainers of the driver as well
[18:26] <ReScO> as long as the sky2 driver exists, it's broken
[18:26] <ReScO> how can i find out?
[18:28] <nomoney4me2> reisio, lol - figured i go here to ask my ubuntu related questions because they're suggesting other distros in the other channel :P
[18:29] <nacc> ReScO: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/MAINTAINERS?id=refs/tags/v4.6-rc6#n6924
[18:29] <nacc> ReScO: it seems like Marvell are active, they can probably help?
[18:30] <nacc> ReScO: note that in order to file the bug report with them, they'll want you to be running mainline, not hte Ubuntu kernel (but you can use the mainline PPA, i think)
[18:30] <nacc> !mainline | ReScO
[18:30] <reisio> nomoney4me2: :p
[18:31] <reisio> this is a better place for Ubuntu-specific questions, anyway
[18:31] <reisio> unsurprisingly
[18:31] <ReScO> nacc, how can i poke them with my bug report?
[18:32] <bekks> ReScO: You submit the bug report, and they will read it.
[18:32] <reisio> bug reporting is poking itself
[18:32] <ReScO> bekks, but i submitted a bug report?
[18:33] <bekks> ReScO: Did you?
[18:33] <nacc> ReScO: ubuntu bug report != kernel bug report
[18:33] <reisio> if you aren't an old hand, it's best to submit to your distro's bug tracker first
[18:33] <reisio> nomoney4me2: so what's up?
[18:33] <bekks> ReScO: Did you submit an Ubuntu bug report or kernel bug report?
[18:34] <nomoney4me2> reisio, reinstalling lubuntu on this mac air from last night.  Waiting for it to finish and try this wifi driver again.
[18:34] <reisio> nomoney4me2: ah
[18:34] <nomoney4me2> reisio, it seems the b43 driver was able to work, allowing me to see the wlan0.  However, it won't connect to the ssid.
[18:34] <ReScO> bekks, ubuntu, because it had a tool
[18:35] <reisio> nomoney4me2: oh are you the broadcam-sta guy?
[18:35] <bekks> ReScO: Which tool?
[18:35] <rubiksmomo> I installed nvidia 364 and I have nvidia-prime set to performance/Nvidia. I get blank screen for login and the system does not respond to ctrl+alt+F1. Got to terminal through safemode. Could someone please tell me how to get the nvidia driver working? :S
[18:35] <nomoney4me2> reisio, from last night? yes.  However, I did not go the sta route, it required dkms and a whole bunch of dependencies (which is problematic when the laptop does not have an ethernet connection).
[18:36] <z4c> anyone else having a samsung monitor with ubuntu 16.04? everything feels zoomed and changing resolution doesnt fix this... (at work i have an asus monitor and everything works fine)
[18:36] <reisio> nomoney4me2: might be some clues here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookAir
[18:36] <nomoney4me2> reisio, so I followed the tutorial on ubuntu's site regarding b43 drivers
[18:36] <reisio> all the mac laptops tend to have specific howtos on the interwebs
[18:36] <ReScO> bekks, the one built into ubuntu
[18:36] <reisio> (since people paid twice as much for them, they want them to work :p)
[18:36] <nomoney4me2> lol
[18:37] <nomoney4me2> reisio, it was free so I am not expecting much :P
[18:37] <bekks> ReScO: Can you name it?
[18:37] <ReScO> bekks, if i could've i would've
[18:38] <curlyears> OK. When I try to boot to the HDD, it stops with "ALERT!  /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root does not exist.
[18:38] <akik> z4c: what do you get with "xdpyinfo | grep resolution" ?
[18:38] <curlyears> then it drops the "BusyBox v1.21.1
[18:38] <reisio> curlyears: sounds like your lvm has become confused
[18:38] <bekks> curlyears: what have you dont before you rebooted?
[18:38] <reisio> curlyears: or your hardware has died :D
[18:39] <curlyears> the is presents the folowng "prompt" whihch does not seem to respond to any form of input  "(unitramfs)
[18:39] <nacc> ReScO: seems like upstream think it might have been a hardware issue sometime ago (http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1131669)
[18:39] <sqredreaper> im having trouble getting ubuntu to boot on my mac can anyone help me? 16 boots into a black screen and 14.4 which did work before with nomodeset not just stops at the ubuntu logo
[18:39] <bekks> curlyears: what have you dont before you rebooted?
[18:40] <z4c> akik resolution:    96x96 dots per inch
[18:40] <curlyears> bekks:  The other day I "sudo apt-get install gnome"  chose gnome as my default file manager and tried to reboot.  Been fighting with it ever since
[18:40] <ReScO> nacc, it definitely is not a hardware related issue
[18:41] <reisio> sqredreaper: the -mac image?
[18:41] <bekks> ReScO: How do you know?
[18:41] <sqredreaper> im sorry?
[18:41] <ReScO> bekks, switched around network apparatus in the meantime
[18:42] <curlyears> reisio: except I can boot Live-DVD (whoch is how i am here)
[18:42] <reisio> does sort of pay to know how to use lvm manually before using it :/
[18:42] <bekks> ReScO: At both ends of the cable? :)
[18:42] <ReScO> bekks, ofc the issue would go away if i installed a different NIC
[18:42] <ReScO> ....
[18:43] <bekks> ReScO: So thats a good sign for a hardware issue.
[18:43] <ReScO> it's onboard LAN, changing a NIC doesn't solve the issue
[18:43] <twitch> I'm incredibly new to linux. I have installed mintppc 11 on an old ibook g4. Does anyone have any up to date resources on this ancient hardware?
[18:43] <sqredreaper> im having trouble getting ubuntu to boot on my mac can anyone help me? 16 boots into a black screen and 14.4 which did work before with nomodeset not just stops at the ubuntu logo
[18:43] <bekks> twitch: Not for Mint, sorry.
[18:44] <twitch> i know I can use most ubuntu resources if that helps.
[18:44] <tgm4883> ReScO: Didn't you just say the issue would go away if you installed a new NIC?
[18:44] <twitch> Having trouble with video drivers at the moment. radeon 9550 32meg
[18:44] <curlyears> reisio: //
[18:44] <reisio> reisio: \\
[18:45] <tgm4883> !mint | twitch
[18:45] <twitch> thanks!
[18:45] <curlyears> tgm4883:  no, he said "ofc the issue would go away..."  meaning, "of course, the issue would go away"
[18:45] <ReScO> tgm4883, but that isn't a fix for the Sky2 driver, which i'd rather see happen.
[18:46] <sqredreaper> why are there so many people that do not speak in these irc rooms?
[18:46] <bekks> The development of the sky2 driver stopped ages ago, didnt it?
[18:46] <azizLIGHT> i like to listen
[18:46] <tgm4883> sqredreaper: not really a support questions is it
[18:46] <curlyears> doggong sticky keyboard.  I keep forgetting to swap it out every time I restart )-:
[18:46] <ReScO> sqredreaper, IRC Bouncers
[18:46] <sqredreaper> i keep asking for help yet no one is responding
[18:47] <azizLIGHT> not everyone is here all the time
[18:47] <sqredreaper> i was getting loads of help last night
[18:47] <ReScO> bekks, not sure, but meh
[18:47] <azizLIGHT> depends on the time of day too yes
[18:47] <pintman> sqredreaper, be patient and wait for an answer.
[18:47] <curlyears> sqredreaper: be glad there are so many who idle.  if all 2000 of these users were talking, it would be utter CHAOSoin here!!!
[18:47] <tgm4883> sqredreaper: this isn't paid support. Nobody is waiting for to answer any question you may have
[18:48] <sqredreaper> god damn its way more chill in the debian irc
[18:48] <curlyears> sqredreaper: if no one responds to your question, it probably means none of the currentl;y active users knonw the answer.
[18:49] <tgm4883> sqredreaper: You're asking questions about Mac support, which only a subset of users are going to be able to assist with
[18:49] <sqredreaper> this is frustrating i sell so many macs at my job but its like no one uses it for actual computing so the support for it is terrible
[18:50] <tgm4883> sqredreaper: buy/sell properly supported hardware?
[18:50] <curlyears> sqredreaper:   that's what happens when you buy a toy computer  *heh*
[18:50] <sqredreaper> this toy computer cost more than most peoples desktops
[18:50] <akik> z4c: that value is a part how the ui elements are scaled. do you want to test one way to change it?
[18:51] <curlyears> sqredreaper: correction That's what happens when you buy a grossly overpriced ty computer'
[18:51] <nacc> alright, we've veered offtopic at this point :)
[18:51] <curlyears> yeah )-:
[18:51] <sqredreaper> i didn't buy it. someone died and i got it
[18:51] <nacc> sqredreaper: does 16.04 boot to a non-black screen with 'nomodeset' ?
[18:52] <sqredreaper> nomodeset is useless with grub 2.02
[18:52] <sqredreaper> i cant load any distro because of that
[18:52] <sqredreaper> the dual gpu is th real issue
[18:52] <sqredreaper> the*
[18:53] <techkid6> hey there, whenever I do *anything* in a crontab, I get returned something like `/bin/sh: 1: ping google.com: not found`
[18:53] <tgm4883> techkid6: when you do anything? like what?
[18:54] <techkid6> tgm4883: any command that I schedule, be it `echo`, `cat`, `ping`, anytyhing I try yeilds similar results
[18:54] <nacc> sqredreaper: hrm, i had not heard or was not aware that nomodeset was not useful with newer grub
[18:54] <rubiksmomo> I installed nvidia 364 and I have nvidia-prime set to performance/Nvidia. I get blank screen for login and the system does not respond to ctrl+alt+F1. Got to terminal through safemode. Could someone please tell me how to get the nvidia driver working? :S
[18:54] <sqredreaper> i get irq error 17 and radeon kernel panic
[18:55] <nacc> sqredreaper: that doesn't seem like it's useless...
[18:55] <nacc> sqredreaper: sounds like you get a non-black screen
[18:55] <tgm4883> techkid6: so if you do an echo you get an error that "ping" isn't found
[18:55] <pintman> techkid6, what does crontab -l tell you?
[18:55] <nomoney4me2> reisio, ok I have this installed.  dmesg | grep b43 shows firmware is loaded
[18:55] <techkid6> tgm4883: It doesn't... when i tried ping it did.  I was just giving an example output from y emails
[18:56] <tgm4883> techkid6: have you tried adding full paths for your commands?
[18:56] <sqredreaper> i get a black screen following that error
[18:56] <akik> does unity have a similar setting in the display settings? "scale display"
[18:56] <techkid6> tgm4883: Yes, same situation
[18:56] <techkid6> pintman: (3 lines incoming)
[18:56] <techkid6> techkid6@chestnut:~$ crontab -l
[18:56] <curlyears> does anyone thinkn I should a bug report on this problem I had with the gome install trashing my system?

[18:57] <nacc> sqredreaper: techkid6 don't use quotes
[18:57] <nomoney4me2> sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning: no scan results :(
[18:57] <nacc> sqredreaper: sorry, just techkid6  :/
[18:57] <nacc> sqredreaper: do you have the radeon panic on-hand?
[18:58] <techkid6> Right-o, nacc
[18:58] <techkid6> I'll try it
[18:58] <curlyears> ah, well.   I have to do the monthly grocery shopping.   I guess I'll try again later.  BCNU
[18:59] <nacc> techkid6: i believe cron was trying to run the quoted command, because you quoted it. So it was looking to resolve something with the full string, as the error indicated
[18:59] <sqredreaper> i do not
[18:59] <sqredreaper> im in OS X right now
[18:59] <sqredreaper> cant get any distro to actually load
[18:59] <reisio> 'cept modded freebsd :p
[18:59] <sqredreaper> idk why they cant just use my intel gpu instead of the radeon
[19:00] <le_pig> lol
[19:01] <z4c> akik, yes!
[19:01] <rubiksmomo> I installed nvidia 364 and I have nvidia-prime set to performance/Nvidia. I get blank screen for login and the system does not respond to ctrl+alt+F1. Got to terminal through safemode. Could someone please tell me how to get the nvidia driver working? :S
[19:02] <OerHeks> rubiksmomo, did you edit your bios in any way, to improve performance with overclocking?
[19:02] <akik> z4c: there's two places. one is /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ where you can create a new file 77set_dpi with contents "/usr/bin/xrandr --dpi 88"
[19:02] <rubiksmomo> OerHeks: Nope
[19:03] <akik> z4c: are you running unity? i'm using kde but that directory should work the same
[19:03] <OerHeks> rubiksmomo, oke, then i have no clue about your issue :-(
[19:03] <sqredreaper> i wish my co workers had linux support
[19:03] <rubiksmomo> OerHeks: OK, thanks anyway
[19:03] <akik> z4c: the other place would be unity's system settings/display and look for scale display
[19:05] <z4c> akik, can you retype that? (irc client crashed)
[19:05] <akik> z4c: there's two places. one is /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ where you can create a new file 77set_dpi with contents "/usr/bin/xrandr --dpi 88"
[19:05] <akik> z4c: the other place would be unity's system settings/display and look for scale display
[19:06] <akik> irssi has a buffer so i don't need to retype :)
[19:07] <z4c> akik ok I created the file
[19:07] <sqredreaper> is there a channel for mac support?
[19:07] <z4c> akik reboot now?
[19:07] <MonkeyDust_> sqredreaper  #macos
[19:08] <akik> z4c: yes
[19:08] <akik> z4c: although i think a logout restart xorg too
[19:08] <sqredreaper> its like 4 people in there...
[19:08] <MonkeyDust_> !mac
[19:09] <MonkeyDust_> sqredreaper  try #MacOSX
[19:09] <sqredreaper> i've read that, i don't have a superdrive i have a SDD and HDD
[19:10] <mohsen-rashidi> hey. how is possible to diable a repo or just ignore it during update?
[19:11] <rubiksmomo> I installed nvidia 364 and I have nvidia-prime set to performance/Nvidia. I get blank screen for login and the system does not respond to ctrl+alt+F1. Got to terminal through safemode. Could someone please tell me how to get the nvidia driver working? :S
[19:12] <Kamilla-> Hey, i am facing problems installing with the ubuntu installation 16.04, at the end of the install the grub fails with fatal error
[19:13] <ioria> rubiksmomo, are you in recovery mode ? cannot open a console ?
[19:13] <Guest38614> rubiksmomo : distro, gfx-card any info ?
[19:14] <rubiksmomo> ioria: I did ctrl+alt+f1 from safe mode and started irssi
[19:14] <rubiksmomo> Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS 64bit. GeForce GTX 960M + Intel.
[19:14] <ioria> rubiksmomo, uname -r ?
[19:15] <rubiksmomo> 4.2.0-35-generic
[19:15] <Kamilla-> is there a workaround or something else i could do? perhaps use grub-repair for this problem?
[19:16] <Gallomimia> Kamilla-: have you any idea why it failed?
[19:16] <Gallomimia> cause i get that problem a lot.
[19:16] <z4c> akik no success =/
[19:16] <Gallomimia> in fact ive been trying to deal with it on my own.
[19:16] <ioria> rubiksmomo, you installed lts-wily  enabl stack ?
[19:16] <Kamilla-> i don't know actually, i am using a Live USB, and nothing have been problematic due to debian installation, so i guess i might try to install it manually
[19:17] <rubiksmomo> ioria: I don't think so O_o
[19:17] <Gallomimia> Kamilla-: probably best to do that. have you got any strange configs with your disks? other OS installed already? LVM, raid, or crypto involved?
[19:17] <sruli> i am running a command at root shell and giving the full path to executable, for sync at the end of a command do i also need to put the full path? (/bin/sync)
[19:17] <ioria> rubiksmomo, when you installed the os ?
[19:18] <_arktos75_> rubiksmomo : try opening console, delete all nvidia* stuff : http://askubuntu.com/questions/206283/how-can-i-uninstall-a-nvidia-driver-completely
[19:18] <rubiksmomo> ioria: About a month ago when I bought this HP Omen
[19:18] <Kamilla-> Gallomimia: i have another disk with luks connected to the board, should i perhaps disconnect it and do a reinstall ?
[19:18] <rubiksmomo> _arktos75_: I have reinstalled nvidia like 20 times
[19:18] <ioria> :þ
[19:18] <_arktos75_> rubiksmomo : then add repo : https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[19:18] <ioria> already  done
[19:18] <rubiksmomo> _arktos75_: I have it, tried different versions with no luck
[19:19] <Gallomimia> Kamilla-: i don't think it should matter. is the luks disk involved in the install? or the boot? or just used when everything's running?
[19:19] <ioria> rubiksmomo, ok, so default installation , right ?
[19:19] <_arktos75_> ok ....
[19:19] <Gallomimia> Kamilla-: is it possible you specified a partition for grub install and not a drive? its my finding that it doesn't like that
[19:19] <Kamilla-> Gallomimia: nope its not
[19:19] <Gallomimia> tho it seems to allow it... don't know why
[19:20] <Kamilla-> idk
[19:20] <rubiksmomo> ioria: Yeah, encrypted filesystem indeed. Not sure how default it is now after uninstalling/installing stuff. But I had this issue from beginning.
[19:20] <Gallomimia> hm. well, if you drop to the menu in the installer that lets you resume some part of the process, try installing grub again?
[19:20] <boot13> What's the most reliable way to get ClamAV code updates? Using the Ubuntu repos I always seem to be out of date.
[19:20] <Gallomimia> specify your full disk. probably /dev/sda
[19:20] <ioria> rubiksmomo, maybe you need to blacklist nouveau ....
[19:21] <rubiksmomo> ioria: I had it blacklisted earlier, lemme try readding it
[19:21] <ioria> rubiksmomo, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i915.modeset=1"
[19:21] <rubiksmomo> OK
[19:21] <rubiksmomo> Should I do both?
[19:21] <Gallomimia> otherwise, you might need to use a shell to mount your drive on /target or /mnt along with any other partitions needed, mount the needed system dirs and do a chroot, before mucking around with update-grub and related
[19:21] <ioria> rubiksmomo  in /etc/default/grub  and run sudo update-grub
[19:22] <rubiksmomo> ah right
[19:22] <ioria> rubiksmomo  if you are in revocery you need to remount rw the fs
[19:23] <rubiksmomo> ioria: OK, I'll cat to confirm the changes.
[19:23] <ioria> rubiksmomo  but it's odd you cannot open a console normally
[19:24] <ioria> rubiksmomo  you should wait a bit after the blank screen
[19:24] <rubiksmomo> ioria: Yeah, had the issue before. Now it started again after installing nvidia 364. Maybe it's specific to the nvidia version.
[19:24] <akik> z4c: the resolution value didn't change?
[19:24] <rubiksmomo> ioria: I remember I once waited like 5min and it started working perfectly O_o
[19:24] <ioria> :þ
[19:25] <_arktos75_> strange ..
[19:25] <rubiksmomo> So I'll blacklist nouveau too?
[19:26] <Kamilla-> Gallomimia: thx :)
[19:26] <ioria> rubiksmomo  try the changes, first
[19:26] <EriC^^> Kamilla-: booting issues?
[19:26] <Kamilla-> i will try that
[19:26] <Kamilla-> EriC^^: installation issues
[19:26] <EriC^^> what exactly?
[19:26] <Kamilla-> :/
[19:26] <ioria> rubiksmomo  reboot, and try to open a console
[19:26] <rubiksmomo> ioria: OK, I'll reboot now with the new modeset?
[19:26] <ioria> rubiksmomo  yes
[19:26] <Kamilla-> grub install at the end of the installation of 16.04
[19:26] <rubiksmomo> ioria: OK, let's see
[19:27] <z4c> akik no change at all
[19:27] <EriC^^> Kamilla-: it errors out?
[19:28] <urrrr> burn all jews in oven
[19:28] <urrrr> only infidels use ubuntu
[19:28] <urrrr> death to infidels
[19:28] <akik> z4c: i don't use unity so can't help there. try searching for unity and scaling factor
[19:29] <akik> z4c: that Xsession.d change works in kde so i don't know why it didn't work for you
[19:29] <_arktos75_> ioria : shouldnt "sudo apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau" also do the trick..... no blacklisting needed !?
[19:29] <Kamilla-> EriC^^: kind of do
[19:29] <ioria> _arktos75_, as far as i know is deprecated purge nouveaus ...
[19:29] <akik> is gnome 3 the same as unity?
[19:29] <Rubiksmomo> Blank screen, does not respond to ctrl+alt+f1
[19:30] <ioria> Rubiksmomo, terrific
[19:30] <EriC^^> Kamilla-: what's the setup? manual partitioning?
[19:30] <z4c> akik you told me to restart something, what was it again?
[19:30] <reisio> akik: what most people think of as "Unity" is at least 75% GNOME
[19:30] <akik> z4c: well if you rebooted then all the processes were restarted
[19:30] <reisio> akik: probably more like 90%
[19:30] <ioria> Rubiksmomo, changes applied ... check /var/log/Xorg.0.log ....  the first lines
[19:31] <z4c> akik hmm
[19:31] <Kamilla-> EriC^^: no, but perhaps i should give that a try o/
[19:31] <akik> z4c: here's a guide to change the scaling factor in gnome 3. maybe it works for you(?) http://askubuntu.com/questions/197828/how-to-find-and-change-the-screen-dpi
[19:31] <akik> gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor
[19:31] <Rubiksmomo> Back to safemode
[19:32] <EriC^^> Kamilla-: if you press the arrow at the left of the installer it drops down a tiny terminal with the installer's output
[19:32] <ioria> Rubiksmomo, cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit
[19:32] <EriC^^> Kamilla-: might be worth checking to see what grub is saying
[19:33] <ioria> Rubiksmomo, in recovery mode you need to remount rw the fs to apply changes ....
[19:33] <Kamilla-> have to reboot brb
[19:35] <Rubiksmomo> ioria: The changes are still present. Maybe resume and failsafeX do the remount.
[19:35] <V7> Hey all !
[19:36] <V7> I can't login to vsftpd service via new created user
[19:36] <V7> Why !? :D
[19:36] <ioria> Rubiksmomo, you enabled networking from recovery menu  ?
[19:36] <V7> I've enabled this: userlist_deny=NO userlist_enable=YES userlist_file=/etc/vsftpd.allowed_users
[19:37] <V7> Then I've created new user
[19:37] <V7> And now I can't login into vsftpd service
[19:37] <Rubiksmomo> ioria: No. Did resume. It should connect to WiFi after a while.
[19:37] <V7> All works, but only pssword or login mismatches
[19:37] <V7> mismatchs *
[19:37] <V7> mismathces *
[19:38] <V7> Can someone help me :) ?
[19:38] <ioria> Rubiksmomo, well, reverse the changes in  /etc/default/grub , remove i915.modeset=1
[19:38] <V7> It's really important !
[19:38] <V7> I haven't a lot of time : D
[19:38] <ioria> Rubiksmomo, and sudo update-grub
[19:38] <Kamilla-> I can't believe this, i am now sitting on a new ubuntu 16.04 desktop, this is amazing!
[19:38] <Rubiksmomo> ioria: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16208001
[19:38] <V7> Kamilla-: ?
[19:38] <V7> Is it ?
[19:38] <Kamilla-> i don't know what i did right but i fixed grub :)
[19:39] <ioria> Rubiksmomo, no changes applied ... and remove nomoset
[19:39] <Rubiksmomo> ioria: Ok, but it was same with "nomodeset".
[19:39] <Kamilla-> EriC^^: ^
[19:39] <Rubiksmomo> F***, forgot that
[19:39] <EriC^^> Kamilla-: great :)
[19:39] <Kamilla-> other guy ...mimia ^

[19:40] <V7> ali_: +
[19:40] <ali_> what OSes you guys use with ubuntu?
[19:41] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,    nano /etc/default/grub  - remove nomodeset and add i915.modeset=1"   sudo update-grub and reboot
[19:41] <ioria> *without *
[19:41] <ioria> *without   the "
[19:41] <Rubiksmomo> ioria: Ok, I updated grub this time. I'll try again with that modeset
[19:41] <charlespl> how can i close a specific chat in irc?
[19:41] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,    no, please
[19:42] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,   cat /etc/default/grub | pastebinit
[19:42] <trevor_s> anyone know why ubuntu doesn't see my hardware raided volume but instead sees each individual disk?
[19:42] <ali_> guys my touchpad on dell laptop have issues. do you think its worth buying another laptop for touhpad?
[19:42] <EriC^^> charlespl: /wc or /close
[19:42] <ali_> running ubuntu
[19:42] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,   cat /etc/default/grub | pastebinit
[19:43] <Rubiksmomo> ioria: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16208075
[19:43] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,   ok, did you remount the fs ?
[19:43] <Rubiksmomo> Yeah and updated grub this time
[19:43] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,   ok, reboot
[19:45] <Rubiksmomo> ioria: Same result. Unresponsive blank screen. Back to recovery?
[19:46] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,   if you cannot open a console, yes ... from recovery choose 'enable networking'  and then root shell
[19:47] <Rubiksmomo> Ok
[19:47] <new_student> What is the *correct* way to upgrade to the latest stable kernel in 14.04 LTS?
[19:47] <EriC^^> new_student: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[19:48] <EriC^^> that'll update everything though, you just want the kernel?
[19:48] <new_student> Someone told me to install some generic-lts-??? thingy
[19:48] <EriC^^> those are hardware enablement stacks from newer releases
[19:49] <EriC^^> !info linux-generic-lts-xenial trusty
[19:49] <new_student> So, is it safe to install linux-generic-lts-xenial in 14.04LTS ?
[19:49] <EriC^^> new_student: maybe sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-wily would be more stable than xenial's
[19:50] <new_student> what will be the final version of kernel in both cases?
[19:50] <new_student> wily->4.2 and xenial->4.4 ?
[19:51] <Rubiksmomo> ioria: Tried enabling networking and let it remount. It's stuck at "mountall: fsck /boot [898] terminated with status 1". Should I ctrl+c so it will resume?
[19:51] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,   mmm, no good
[19:52] <EriC^^> new_student: yeah, wily is 4.2 and xenial is 4.4
[19:52] <Rubiksmomo> ioria: If I press ctrl+c it will go to login (loop) screen and I can enter terminal
[19:52] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,  good....  sudo nano /etc/default/grub and remove i915.modeset=1
[19:53] <ioria> Rubiksmomo,  and sudo update-grub

[19:55] <linuxmodder> that asshat is  using a vpn I recognize the  ip range as one my vpn uses
[19:55] <Pici> This is IRC.
[19:55] <croberts> i never get highlighted in this chan haha
[19:55] <dax> It's a spam attack. It's being sorted out. No point dwelling on it, it just gives the idiot more attention.
[19:55] <krthnz> someone is butthurt
[19:55] <vCra> King_Hual: /me starts crying
[19:55] <dax> there we go, knew i was missing something

[19:56] <dax> Back to support discussion now, thx.
[19:56] <ghostcube> script kids need attention, so just dont feed the troll
[19:56] <vCra> At least the flood detection works
[19:56] <UbuntuDude> I use systemctl or service to stop cups service but after a while I find it running again with an open port 631 ... how to go about stop it permanently? (the same is happening to other services)
[19:57] <guntbert_> UbuntuDude:   sudo systemctl disable cups
[19:58] <NoCode> Why the hell
[19:58] <reisio> why the potato zingala
[20:02] <Rubiksmomo> How do I get nvidia driver working? After installing nvidia 364 I just get blank login screen and it does not respond to ctrl+alt+f1
[20:04] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: can you get a tty right now?
[20:04] <Hiro`> I recently experienced a weird thing where I booted up my computer (running 15.10) and my desktop didn't appear. I switched on the Unity plugin in CCSM and this seemed to take care f it. However, it's done something rather strange to my navigation shortcuts! Now instead of being able to use ctrl-alt-right to go to the workspace to my right, I have to use super-s and then pick from a zoomed out over-view of available workspaces. How do
[20:05] <Rubiksmomo> Eric^^: Yeah, through recovery
[20:05] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: if you try nomodeset do you get a desktop or tty?
[20:06] <Rubiksmomo> Desktop, well blank black screen
[20:06] <V7> Thanks for your help ... (sarcasm) ... I found solution by myself
[20:06] <V7> D
[20:06] <V7> :D
[20:07] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: do you have a live usb you can boot? or another pc you can use while you talk here?
[20:07]  * V7 is happy

[20:07] <reisio> /nick V8

[20:08] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: boot to a recovery shell with networking
[20:08] <Hiro`> In fact, I can still see my shortcuts when I go to system settings > keyboard > shortcuts, but they don't work.
[20:08] <soulisson> Hi, my understanding of blocks/clusters is that are made of contiguous sectors, is that correct?
[20:10] <V7> Huh ... now I'll have some time to try out a Viber on Ubuntu 14.04
[20:10] <V7> I hope it works well
[20:10] <Rubiksmomo> Let's see if it connects to my wifi hotspot soon
[20:11] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: that won't work i think
[20:11] <V7> Holy moly ... Installing Viber uses 100% of CPU
[20:11] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: do you have an ethernet cable you could use, or a live usb maybe?
[20:11] <V7> i7 1x
[20:11] <Rubiksmomo> EriC^^: It worked before. Just have to wait couple minutes
[20:12] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: oh, cool
[20:12] <Rubiksmomo> No ethernet. Just phone's wifi hotspot
[20:16] <Rubiksmomo> It isn't connecting now. Maybe it will work if I reboot to recovery and choose resume
[20:16] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: ok
[20:16] <cristian_c> EriC^^: hello
[20:16] <EriC^^> cristian_c: hi
[20:16] <cristian_c> EriC^^: any ideas about the .service issue?
[20:17] <mistawright> hi guys I am having a problem. I know my configuration is right but rsyslog doesnt seem to be sending or working right on my server. I know it should be as the same config is working and forwarding my logs on other servers
[20:17] <mistawright> any ideas how to fix this?
[20:17] <wad> The survey section of this page is missing an entry for 16.04: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
[20:17] <EriC^^> cristian_c: not really, did you try -x?
[20:17] <Hiro`> Is there no way to set shortcuts to navigate between workspaces using CCSM / Unity Plugin?
[20:18] <curlyears> Well, the support tech at Gigabtye explained that my BIOS is behaving normally.  He told me I am going to have to low-level format my HDD and reinstall.  )-:  is there a way to low level format a 3TB drivee under ubuntu?
[20:18] <cristian_c> EriC^^: yeah, as I said
[20:18] <EriC^^> curlyears: what's the problem you're having?
[20:19] <curlyears> I don't understand how installing gnome trashed the low-leverl formart of my HDD
[20:20] <curlyears> EriC^^: long story.  short version is, apparently, that apt-get install gnome then choosing gnome as ny new file manager appears to have trashed the drive.  Can't boot from it, can't install to it
[20:21] <curlyears> I hope low-level formatting it will make it usable again.  Brand new drive )-:
[20:22] <curlyears> so IJ ask again:  is there a util that I can use under ubuntu to low-level format a 3tb drive?
[20:22] <ma_ma> hi any one can help me .i wanted to connect to #python ,but it is saying unregistered
[20:23] <EriC^^> curlyears: when you boot what happens?
[20:23] <ma_ma> am already verified by password in freenode
[20:23] <bekks> curlyears: You dont need to "low-level format" a drive, since two decades.
[20:23] <curlyears> the low-lewverl formatter provided by the manufacutrer probably only runs under Winblows
[20:23] <curlyears> bekks:  just a normal format might do it?
[20:23] <bekks> curlyears: What do you expect from that - magical fixing of issues?
[20:23] <bekks> curlyears: You dont even need to format it, most likely. What are you trying to achieve?
[20:24] <curlyears> bekks:  it's what the MB support tech recommended.  I have no clue why it should help, ornoy help
[20:24] <curlyears> not help
[20:24] <bekks> curlyears: "MB support"?
[20:24] <squinty> ma_ma,  ask in #freenode
[20:24] <bekks> curlyears: And whats the actual issue with that drive?
[20:26] <Rubiksmomo> It just doesn't want to update the wifi network list
[20:26] <ma_ma> #freenode
[20:26] <touil76> I think I have found a problem in gnome-screensaver.
[20:26] <curlyears> bekks:  when I try to installl to it, the installer choke, complaining about possibly "too many primsary partitions, sand dumps mee into parted.  parte.  parted shows m e a blank, (no parititions) and hangs, will not accept any input from any source
[20:26] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: use a live usb
[20:26] <squinty> ma_ma,  /j #freenode
[20:26] <bekks> curlyears: Sounds like you are heavily mixing up MBR and GPT partitioning schemes.
[20:27] <touil76> When it turns off my screen after some inactivity, the screen can't be turned back on by moving the mouse or hitting a key.
[20:27] <Rubiksmomo> EriC^^: Nevermind, it connected finally
[20:27] <curlyears> when I try to boot from it, I end up hung with what appears to be a prompt (but I realize probably isn't) of "(initramfs)
[20:27] <bekks> curlyears: Are you using MBR or GPT?
[20:27] <touil76> When I turn off the screen directly from a terminal using : xset -display :0.0 dpms force off, the screen can be woken up.
[20:27] <curlyears> bekks:  I am using A PLAIN VANILLA INSTALL OF 14.4.04, OR TRYING TO INSTALL SAME.\
[20:28] <curlyears> oops, sowwy about caps
[20:28] <touil76> When I use xscreensaver instead of gnome-screensaver, there is no problem in waking the screen again.
[20:28] <EriC^^> Rubiksmomo: type ubuntu-drivers devices | nc termbin.com 9999
[20:28] <bekks> curlyears: That doesnt answer my question. Are you using MBR or GPT? If unsure - is your BIOS set to BIOS/legacy or UEFI?, for booting?
[20:28] <curlyears> bekks:     isn't gpt required for HDDs over 2TB?
[20:28] <bekks> curlyears: Yes.
[20:28] <MinecraftCreeper> my ubuntu startup hangs at random: nonblocking pool is initalized
[20:29] <EriC^^> curlyears: technically, just for partitions larger than 2tb
[20:29] <curlyears> it is set to "Automatically"  select  UEFI is appropriate, which was previsouly working just fine\
[20:29] <rajiv1> How to completely remove a program (software) in ubuntu 16.04 lts? Actually, i have installed k3b in ubuntu 16.04. During the installation so many dependencies have also been installed. now i wanted to uninstall all.
[20:29] <bekks> curlyears: Previously, before doing what exactly?
[20:30] <curlyears> bekks:  before installing gno,me bl;ew it all to hell
[20:30] <bekks> curlyears: So why dont you set your computer to UEFI, and start a fresh install?
[20:30] <MinecraftCreeper> How long does it take to get any help on this irc?
[20:30] <zykotick9> rajiv1: "sudo apt-get purge k3b" then "sudo apt-get autoremove" if it says a bunch of packages are no longer needed
[20:30] <curlyears> bekks:   you think that will help?
[20:31] <bekks> MinecraftCreeper: As long as it takes until someone picks up your issue and gives you an answer.
[20:31] <MinecraftCreeper> ok, my ubuntu startup is freezing
[20:31] <coding410> http://caffeinealgorithm.com/
[20:31] <curlyears> I can go try that.  Be aware the rebooting into the Live-DVD 14.04.4 takes about 9 minutes
[20:31] <bekks> curlyears: Thats your only chance :) You need to have a predictable environment. And you shoud not use MBR tools on GPT labeled disks.
[20:31] <EriC^^> curlyears: can you post sudo parted -l from a live usb?
[20:31] <EriC^^> curlyears: perhaps creating a fresh gpt partition might help
[20:32] <EriC^^> *partition table
[20:33] <MinecraftCreeper> I mean, my ubuntu startup isn't exactly freezing, it's just taking a way longer than normal time to boot up.
[20:33] <curlyears> A live-DVD, yes.  Though I don't know how to post it from the live-DVD, since I can't install pASTEBINIT
[20:33] <rajiv1> thank you zykotick9!  will you please tell me how to get information about a program in ubuntu. for e.g. in fedora i use "sudo dnf info [option]".
[20:33] <curlyears> I'll give these ideas a shot
[20:33] <bekks> MinecraftCreeper: "way longer than normal" means what? 2 seconds longer?
[20:33] <curlyears> be back later
[20:33] <EriC^^> curlyears: try
[20:33] <MinecraftCreeper> no, like 4/5 minutes longer
[20:33] <EriC^^> curlyears: sudo parted -l.
[20:34] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: nc isn't working, broken pipe. And pastebinit isn't working either. But it lists 6 nvidia and one nouveau.
[20:34] <EriC^^> rubiksmo1o: which is the recommended one?
[20:34] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: nvidia-364
[20:35] <EriC^^> is that the one you tried to install?
[20:35] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: Yeah, the last one I tried ^_^
[20:35] <nairwolf> what's happen if I want to remove the repository 'restricted' from my sources.list, and then I want to uninstall a package from 'restricted'. Dependencies will be deleted ?
[20:35] <EriC^^> rubiksmo1o: type dpkg -l | grep linux-headers
[20:35] <EriC^^> and type uname -r
[20:35] <EriC^^> see if you have the headers for your kernel
[20:36] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: http://termbin.com/68lx
[20:36] <EriC^^> nairwolf: i'd think so, the packages in /var/lib/dpkg/status have a dependency list
[20:37] <zykotick9> rajiv1: sorry i don't know what "sudo dnf info [option]" does...  you might be interested in "apt-cache policy FOO" or "apt-cache show FOO"
[20:37] <squinty> rajiv1,  apt show <package name>  or  apt-cache <package name>  or aptitude show <package name>   synaptic etc
[20:37] <wad> With 16.04, I can no longer set the text title of tabs in gnome-terminal. Apparently they took that feature away! This is a FATAL deficiency, I'm crippled. The main reason for using Linux is so I can work. I often have a dozen tabs open, and I can quickly "ALT-T, S" to label them. Now I'm just lost. Until this is fixed, what's a good replacement terminal program?
[20:37] <EriC^^> rubiksmo1o: and uname -r ?
[20:37] <MinecraftCreeper> my ubuntu startup has been stuck at: EXT4-fs (sda1): remounted. Opts: (null)
[20:37] <rajiv1> OK! thanks
[20:38] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: http://termbin.com/v4ta
[20:39] <EriC^^> rubiksmo1o: are you set on installing nvidia?
[20:39] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: Yeah, I've done it like 20-30 times already
[20:39] <nairwolf> ok, thanks EriC^^ ;)
[20:40] <nairwolf> EriC^^: Do you know where are saved sources if I active deb-src repository ?
[20:40] <EriC^^> nairwolf: no problem
[20:40] <MinecraftCreeper> can anyone please help me?
[20:40] <squinty> rajiv1,  Using --help after any of those program names lists the various options availble.  eg  apt --help
[20:41] <EriC^^> nairwolf: in the dir you're in when you run apt-get source <package>
[20:41] <EriC^^> rubiksmo1o: type lspci | grep VGA | nc termbin.com  9999
[20:42] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: OK, Nvidia shows as 3D also
[20:43] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: http://termbin.com/nh8y
[20:43] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: http://termbin.com/ymov
[20:43] <EriC^^> rubiksmo1o: what card is it?
[20:43] <rubiksmo1o> EriC^^: GeForce GTX 960M + Intel something
[20:43] <MinecraftCreeper> is there a way to switch linux kernels at startup if grub isn't working?
[20:44] <nairwolf> oh, ok, thank you EriC^^ ;)
[20:46] <MinecraftCreeper> Please, Is there anybody who could help with my problem?
[20:46] <anticitizen> MinecraftCreeper: what's wrong with Grub?
[20:46] <anticitizen> did you hold down left shift while booting?
[20:46] <anticitizen> that should bring up grub if it's not showing automatically
[20:46] <MinecraftCreeper> i tried holding down left shift, but i got, Error: No video mode activated
[20:47] <anticitizen> if you can get to a command prompt (ctrl+alt+1 should do it) you can manually switch kernels, though it might be easier to fix grub from there
[20:47] <rcw2> whoops, put /Downloads in the trash and emptied it ... but i had one document that i dont have another copy of... where is it wise to photorec?
[20:47] <nomoney4me2> question: when i plug in a usb->ethernet adapter, lsusb is not showing anything new, what seems to be the problem?
[20:47] <rubiksmo1o> MinecraftCreeper: Timing is important shen using the shift I think.
[20:48] <MinecraftCreeper> I got the error message when I tried, and when booting, which doesn't work, I get some nonsense about EXT4
[20:48] <anticitizen> you got an error message when going to command prompt?
[20:49] <MinecraftCreeper> I can't get to command prompt, i'm stuck booting
[20:50] <anticitizen> even with ctrl+alt+1?
[20:50] <squinty> nomoney4me2,  might want to see if it's being recognized by pulling the usb and then plugging it back again   right away type dmesg in a terminal and look for the unit at the very end of dmesg
[20:50] <rcw2>  /root/.local/share/trash/files perhaps
[20:50] <rubiksmo1o> f1*
[20:50] <EriC^^> MinecraftCreeper: you can switch kernels if you use a live usb
[20:50] <MinecraftCreeper> it boots on control alt f1, so that is where i'm stuck on, besides, I don't have any usb
[20:51] <EriC^^> mind restating your  problem?
[20:51] <MinecraftCreeper> I've tried that multiple times
[20:52] <MinecraftCreeper> It takes 9 minutes to try anything more
[20:52] <EriC^^> rubiksmo1o: try http://askubuntu.com/questions/658040/ubuntu-14-04-nvidia-drivers-for-geforce-gtx-960m
[20:52] <anticitizen> what do you mean it boots on ctrl alt f1? you mean the computer reboots when you do that?
[20:53] <sw0rdy> hey guys what editor allows me to select an entire line
[20:53] <MinecraftCreeper> for some reason, the computer's boot screen is some text
[20:54] <MinecraftCreeper> Which I'm stuck not being able to do anything on for 9 Minutes
[20:54] <reisio> sw0rdy: almost any
[20:54] <anticitizen> okay, so what happens when you press control alt and f1? are you prompted for your login name and password?
[20:54] <sw0rdy> can I do it in gedit, reisio ?

[20:55] <dax> bye jzk
[20:55] <AaronMT> .....
[20:55] <sw0rdy> nope
[20:55] <sw0rdy> I actually can't do it on gedit
[20:55] <sw0rdy> shoot!
[20:55] <dax> anyways. messages from users not identified to NickServ are currently only readable by channel ops (like me)
[20:55] <dax> so if you're not getting a response and aren't identified, consider fixing that
[20:55] <dax> !register
[20:55] <reisio> sw0rdy: what do you want to do with the selection?
[20:56] <theShirbiny> doesn't even leave any context...
[20:56] <Stoner19> that was fun
[20:56] <sw0rdy> I guess sublimetext it is, reisio on sublimetext I can do CTRL+L to select a line then copy it or cut it...etc
[20:57] <andyfied> well i'm awake now
[20:57] <sw0rdy> but damn I love gedit's dark blue background color....
[20:57] <reisio> sw0rdy: triple click work?
[20:57] <reisio> you can also configure the background color for any editor :p
[20:57] <sw0rdy> oh, right... triple click
[20:57] <sw0rdy> LOL I guess there is the triple click reisio my friend
[20:58] <reisio> sw0rdy: that good enough?
[20:58] <reisio> sw0rdy: gedit has plugins for customized feature sets, too, IIRC
[20:58] <reisio> most editors have
[20:59] <dax> Executioner: nothing, some silly person just has a grudge against freenode because of silly reasons. not worth bothering about
[21:02] <babilen> Hi .. where are all the old kb articles (e.g. https://freenode.net/kb/answer/using ) these day?
[21:02] <babilen> echan

[21:04] <anon9002> How do I detach do-release-upgrade's screen session? Neither ^Ad nor screen -d would work.
[21:07] <akkad> hmm no 1.0.1t openssl updates yet? it's been 2 days since they got the info
[21:08] <k1l> akkad: as always: ubuntu/debian dont increase the version but backport the security patches
[21:08] <mistawright> hi guys I have rsyslog forwarding logs on 6 six servers. they all have the same setup etc and only 5 of them are working. I cannot tell why the 6th server isnt logging as it should be. i have restarted and reinstalled rsyslog as well
[21:08] <OerHeks> akkad, yes, ssl patch is out
[21:08] <k1l> akkad: if you run the updates, you should already have got the patched update
[21:08] <Madhumper69> did someone try to crash the channel?
[21:08] <akkad> OerHeks got a url? I saw debian post their patches
[21:08] <MinecraftCreeper> my ext3 and ext2 can't mount due to feature incapibilities
[21:09] <OerHeks> !usn
[21:09] <akik> anon9002: try power detach "screen -D"
[21:09] <akkad> thanks
[21:12] <mkjack> hey folks, I've checkd my keyboard settings and compiz but for some reason my semicolon (by itself) acts like alt-tab
[21:13] <mkjack> any way to know what's causing that?
[21:13] <anon9002> akik: It still doesn't work. There's also an error message: "Invalid message (magic 0x6d736702)"
[21:13] <rcw2> mkjack, does it happen often or is this a one-off case
[21:16] <rubiksmomo> EriC^^: OK, still black blank screen for login. But I can access terminal again normally. Any more ideas?
[21:17] <akik> anon9002: sorry, unknown errors
[21:17] <rubiksmomo> EriC^^: Actually it works again now. But why is there always a blank screen for around 5min before the login screen appears?
[21:22] <squinty> rubiksmomo,  if you remove "quiet" and "splash" from the grub kernel line in the grub menu, you might be able to see where it is stalling during bootup
[21:22] <rubiksmomo> squinty: Interesting. I'll try it, thanks.
[21:29] <nomoney4me2> squinty, dmesg doesnt show anything new
[21:32] <danilo2> Hello guys! I'm trying to use xbindkeys to map keys to mouse buttons but I've got a problem. When I try to hold a key, bindxkeys executes rapidly actions "press" and "release" (Im not releasign the key), which of course make my mouse clicking rapidly too
[21:33] <danilo2> Does anybody know how to prevent such behaviour in xbindkeys?
[21:33] <ali__> why richard stallman doesn't like ubuntu?:P
[21:34] <reisio> danilo2: map to a shell script instead
[21:34] <reisio> ali__: Ubuntu is laxer about various philosophical aspects of the GNU/Linux world than some other distros
[21:34] <reisio> Stallman fairly reliably doesn't like any entity exhibiting any amount of lax, though :)
[21:35] <ali__> linux torvalds also uses fedora instead of ubuntu
[21:35] <Myrtti> ali__: what does that have to do with Ubuntu support? (ie. please don't)
[21:35] <OerHeks> jolly flamewar ..
[21:35] <danilo2> reisio: what do you mean? The problem appears when I try to execute a script using keyboard shortcut. In fact I want to simulate mouse clicks using keys and Im trying to use xbindkeys to run xdotool which invokes mouse clicks
[21:40] <UFC_addict> hello fellas
[21:42] <blizzow> upgrading my ubuntu server to xenial is hanging up during the upgrade of the mdadm package.  Specifically, it looks like it hangs while trying to stop the currently running mdadm service.  Does anyone have an idea how I might get past this hurdle? I tried manually stopping the mdadm service and that's not working.  The OS is on md0, so that has me a little concerned.
[21:44] <OerHeks> blizzow, you might want to reask in #ubuntu-server too
[21:45] <blizzow> OerHeks: whoops, yes, it would be better in there.
[21:45] <aster_> hi
[21:46] <aster_> I migrated from 14.04 to 16.04 and my desktop is not loading
[21:46] <rubiksmomo> No luck. Still just black blank screen for login. Sometimes the login screen appears if I wait 5-10min. Any idea what's causing it?
[21:46] <OerHeks> blizzow, i am looking here now https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bugs
[21:48] <aster_> any hint?
[21:49] <blizzow> OerHeks: I poked around in there too. I haven't found anything.
[21:49] <k1l> aster_: does the guest account work?
[21:50] <aster_> yes
[21:51] <k1l> aster_: log into tty1 (ctrl+alt+f1) and do a "ls -al" there. is the .Xauthority file owned by root:root or your user?
[21:53] <esmoBG> hi  from bulgaria
[21:54] <k1l> aster_: please answer in here so others can have a look, too, and tell their ideas how to solve.
[21:55] <k1l> aster_: do "mv .config .config_backup" in your users homedirectory.
[21:55] <k1l> aster_: after that go back to the loginscreen (ctrl+alt+f7) and try to login
[21:55] <aster_> ok
[21:56] <aster_> how do I log out from the desktop? control+alt backspace doesnt work..
[21:57] <k1l> gnome-session-quit --no-prompt
[21:58] <OerHeks> systemsettings>keyboard>system> ctrl alt del
[21:59] <OerHeks> or whatever that is there

[22:34] <akik> arooni: ForwardX11 no
[22:35] <imthenachoman> HumanSheeple: is that for me?
[22:37] <HumanSheeple> I'm looking for work what jobs have you got?

[23:03] <mamamia> Boo!
[23:04] <nacc> django_: so it would appear you installed a 2.7 python package under python3.4?
[23:04] <mamamia> Yes it woulod.
[23:04] <django_> nacc, i have no idea
[23:04] <mamamia> About what?
[23:04] <nacc> django_: did you try using python-scrapy from the archive (rather htan pip)?
[23:05] <mamamia> I had three pinecones and a sugar cube.
[23:05] <arooni> thanks akik !
[23:05] <nacc> mamamia: please stop.
[23:05] <mamamia> I like you.
[23:05] <django_> nacc, what does the archive mean
[23:05] <mamamia> *Stops*.
[23:05] <nacc> django_: from Ubuntu directly, not from pip
[23:05] <mamamia> It means what are you doing dummy.
[23:05] <mamamia> I'd say apes. What do you think?
[23:06] <nacc> django_: i.e., python-scrapy, i think
[23:06] <mamamia> Do you have a girlfriend?
[23:07] <KeyboardNotFound> How to clear all cache from apt. I'm getting this problem https://paste.ubuntu.com/16209512/ and I want to cancel the installation
[23:07] <nacc> mamamia: this is an Ubuntu support channel, please take offtopic discussions elsewhere
[23:07] <mamamia> I am quite fine, how are you?
[23:07] <mamamia> The same number that you have.
[23:07] <le_pig> that's a bot
[23:07] <danilo2> Hello guys! Is it possible to tell xorg / udev /whatever to treat LMB + RMB as MMB? I remember such behaviour existed years ago, but now it doesnt work out of the box
[23:07] <mamamia> No I am a boy.
[23:07] <mamamia> Who are you?
[23:08] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: you have already started the installation, so clearing cache won't help
[23:08] <mamamia> I've only got one left, and I'm eating it.
[23:08] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, is there way to cancel it ?
[23:08] <mamamia> 42.
[23:09] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: you could try remove-ing or purge-ing mysql-server and mysql-server-5.7
[23:09] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: but why did mysql-server fail to install?
[23:09] <mamamia> Do you think dreams are of any importance?
[23:09] <mamamia> I found you on internet.
[23:10] <Poke95> !offtopic | mamamia
[23:10] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, due to power problems, the machine was turned off during installation
[23:10] <mamamia> Very much on topic.
[23:10] <mamamia> Go hair.
[23:10] <mamamia> I always have trouble with everyone.
[23:10] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: you could try `apt-get -f install` ?
[23:10] <mamamia> I am gentle.
[23:10] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, it's ok now
[23:11] <mamamia> Okay. I have a question.
[23:11] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, I don't get the error anymore but can't install mysql-server :@
[23:11] <mamamia> So true.
[23:12] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: ok, so you try to `apt-get install mysql-server` and what happense (pastebin)
[23:12] <mamamia> Yes, the keyboard.
[23:12] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, https://paste.ubuntu.com/16209547/
[23:13] <mamamia> Well, of course. You wouldn't chose to use a word if it didn't mean what you wanted it to.
[23:13] <nacc> k1l_: can you or another op to kick/ban --^ ?
[23:13] <nacc> s/to //
[23:13] <mamamia> Hello.
[23:13] <mamamia> You wrote that.
[23:13] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: ah, do you have a version of mysql-server already installed (or did you)?
[23:14] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, I don't have
[23:14] <mamamia> Yes I do.
[23:14] <mamamia> What?
[23:14] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: i think the old installation is still around, so that's the problem -- can you first do `apt-get purge mysql-server mysql-server-5.7` ?
[23:14] <mamamia> I'm sorry, I know nothing about that. Do you like politics?
[23:15] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, I did purge, once again now
[23:15] <mamamia> Working.
[23:15] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, but the same error remains
[23:15] <mamamia> I think it would be a good idea to meet first.
[23:15] <Poke95> mamamia: Stop
[23:15] <mamamia> Mike Dirnt.
[23:16] <Poke95> !offtopic | mamamia
[23:16] <mamamia> Yes.
[23:16] <KeyboardNotFound> Poke95, it's bot
[23:16] <mamamia> Yes, you are right.
[23:16] <mamamia> No it is not.
[23:16] <Poke95> I don't think mamamia is a bot
[23:16] <mamamia> Not yet.
[23:16] <KeyboardNotFound> Admins, please do something, mute mamamia
[23:16] <KeyboardNotFound> ping Drone`
[23:16] <squinty> !ops
[23:16] <Poke95> And if it is a bot, it should be banned and kicked from this channel now
[23:17] <mamamia> Such as?
[23:17] <mamamia> Ding.
[23:17] <KeyboardNotFound> help!
[23:17] <nomoney4me2> any idea why gdebi is telling me "dependency is not satisfiable" instead of letting me select where the dependency lives?
[23:17] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: hrm, it seems that the mysql install thinks it is an upgrade: "mysql_upgrade" is being invoked
[23:17] <mamamia> Ops.
[23:17] <Poke95> Just wait, don't panic :)
[23:17] <squinty> thanks
[23:17] <Jordan_U> mamamia: Please join #ubuntu-ops if you wish to discuss your mute.
[23:19] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, is there way manually to edit any file to resolve this ?
[23:20] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: so, right now, in theory, mysql is purged? is there a /etc/mysql directgory?
[23:20] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, yes, should I remove it ?
[23:21] <squinty> nomoney4me2,  gdebi --help lists the following   -o APT_OPTS, --option=APT_OPTS   Set an APT configuration option
[23:22] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: try `mv /etc/mysql /etc/mysql.bak` and then `apt-get install mysql-server-5.7`
[23:22] <bmsr256> where can I install the ubuntu-restricted-extras in Ubuntu 16.04?
[23:22] <nacc> KeyboardNotFound: i'm guessing that the `purge` from before didn't want to remove a non-empty directory
[23:22] <bmsr256> I see it is not in the new ubuntu software
[23:22] <davido> quit
[23:23] <nacc> bsmith093: it's in mmultiverse; if you're using the gui tools, i think there is a known bug with them not showing all results, trying using the cli for now
[23:23] <KeyboardNotFound> nacc, again same error :@
[23:23]  * KeyboardNotFound is getting nervous
[23:24] <squinty> bmsr256,   sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras   (coy/paste or type in terminal)
[23:24] <squinty> copy/paste
[23:25] <bmsr256> squinty: thanks
[23:25] <squinty> bmsr256, yw
[23:26] <nacc> well, if i miss them and KeyboardNotFound comes back, they shoudl look at http://askubuntu.com/questions/766038/error-installing-mysql-on-ubuntu-16-04
[23:26] <bmsr256> I see the ubuntu software center has it too (the old one), can I install it from there too?
[23:26] <DatabaseNotFound> nacc, I'm here
[23:26] <nacc> DatabaseNotFound: --^ check that link
[23:27] <DatabaseNotFound> nacc, I will, thank you so much
[23:28] <nacc> DatabaseNotFound: gl@!
[23:33] <ReScO> What are some best practices when it comes to company mail without having to give the users a system account?
[23:33] <ReScO> Unless i can configure those accounts to be secured in their home folder and other folders i grant them access to?
[23:35] <django_> hey all
[23:35] <django_> how can i get ubuntu to factory settings?
[23:35] <rick6860> I cannot see the network shares. I tried a couple of Samba programs and wonder if I messed up something more.
[23:36] <Bashing-om> django_: Do a fresh clean install .
[23:36] <squinty> django_, reinstall
[23:37] <django_> I have a dual book Bashing-om squinty
[23:37] <django_> boot*
[23:37] <django_> sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[23:37] <django_> i found that command
[23:37] <rick6860> squinty, to reinstall does one have to clear and reformat the partitions?
[23:37] <Bashing-om> django_: Dual boot does not change the result .
[23:38] <squinty> rick6860,  personally I do  others milage might vary
[23:38] <django_> Bashing-om, i cant believe there isnt a way to reset the whole system
[23:38] <rick6860> squinty, ok thanks
[23:38] <squinty> rick6860, yw
[23:39] <django_> or do you mean run the installer from ubuntu?
[23:39] <rick6860> I cannot see my other computers on the network.
[23:39] <Bashing-om> django_: There is .. time honored .. back up data and RE-install .
[23:39] <squinty> heh
[23:40] <django_> Bashing-om, but can i reinstall while ubuntu is running?
[23:40] <django_> like with a USB
[23:40] <django_> ok so ill tell you guys my problem maybe you can help
[23:41] <django_> i used sudo pip and they said in #python that my system is broken (im getting an error wheni run something) so they told me to  reinstall OS
[23:41] <squinty> rick6860,  might want to try   nautilus -> connect to server ->  smb://<ip addie>  here
[23:42] <rick6860> squinty, I once had mint installed. I could see and access my windows shares. After install ubuntu mate I would get to computer but not access.
[23:43] <rick6860> squinty, which server am I connecting to? a machine on my net?
[23:43] <DatabaseNotFound> nacc, I deleted all dependencies and installed again, but now I noticed this error: AppArmor parser error for /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld in /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld at line 9: Could not open 'abstractions/mysql'
[23:43] <Bashing-om> django_: A re-install is that nuclear solution . Given time and effort buntu is always fixable . Need to know the status of the package manager ' sudo apt update | nc termbin.com 9999 ' as a small 1st step .
[23:43] <squinty> rick6860, yes
[23:43] <nacc> DatabaseNotFound: ok, the isntall failed again?
[23:44] <django_> Bashing-om, should I upgrade to 16.04?
[23:44] <rick6860> squinty, so to get to a shared printer?
[23:44] <DatabaseNotFound> nacc, It didn't but I noticed that error, if apparmor doesn't work, it's security vuln
[23:44] <nacc> DatabaseNotFound: i would think that if mysql-server has been purged, that file (/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld) can be deleted
[23:44] <Bashing-om> django_: NOT on a broken system !
[23:44] <django_> lol
[23:45] <django_> Bashing-om, so ill make a bootable usb stick and reinstal Ubuntu
[23:45] <django_> that will do it right?
[23:45] <squinty> django_, yes
[23:45] <django_> ok great
[23:45] <django_> what steps can i take to learn more about ubuntu so i dont break it again?
[23:46] <Bashing-om> django_: Do what it takes to fix it . That is the way we learn .
[23:49] <WoodyPC> In Terminal, How can I check to see if I have microsoft true type fonts?
[23:49] <squinty> rick6860,nmap -sP 192.168.0.0/24   (finds all active ip's on a lan  [may need to be installed first)
[23:51] <bonsairoot> Has anybody tried to make sway wm work on ubuntu yet?
[23:54] <Bashing-om> WoodyPC: One way ' dpkg -l *font* | grep -E ^ii ' .. see if truetype is in that list .
[23:55] <curlyears> it turns out that suddenly, my BIOS setup got changed, and it was trying to boot and install to the wrong HDD, sand it no longer will work in "auto" mode for UEFI stuff.   Odd, but I have a fresh, working install
[23:56] <curlyears> I tried to install bitchx, but it won't install following the directions.  Some kind of issue with the use of the 'make' command
[23:57] <curlyears> wow # of users is down about 10% from what I usually see in this channel
[23:58] <curlyears> in anycase, thanks to reisio for the suggestions re; eufi settings
