travis_HP 2000-210US notebook PC with [AMD/ATI] Wrestler [Radeon HD 6310] graphics running Ubuntu 16.04. Initial problem was lagging with stock graphics driver, switched to proprietary drivers using "additional drivers" still very laggy after reboot. Next per a suggestion from this IRC yesterday, I used the Intel Graphics Installer For Linux to install the latest Intel driver-stack and the overall performance did change quite dramatically00:46
travis_for the better (I could now open Firefox, start typing into Google without the screen going dim.. but things are still frustratingly slow) This computer originally had Windows 7 and was quite snappy. Is there anyone experienced in this problem that might be able to help me out?00:46
Majora320old computers generally lag on ubuntu, because win has better drivers (one of the only things better on win than *nix)00:48

snfgfI plugged in a USB device, window popped up so I assume it automounted; but how do I find out where it's mounted? lsblk shows no additional devices. No changes to /proc/mounts?01:29

OerHeksif there is no entry the device is not automounted.01:30
OerHekssudo fdisk -l can show the partitiontype, if it is exfat you need some fuse utils01:31
snfgfOerHeks: So it's not automounted then. I don't know it's device name, and it's not appeared as /dev/sdc so maybe it's not a block device? It's my phone. What else might it be named?01:35

KazutoAlright, I really screwed myself over. I accidentally messed up my /etc/sudoers file (don't ask how, it's a long story). Now, I can't use `sudo` at all. To top it off, I can't remember the root password to login and fix it. Is there any workaround to this? I don't have physical access to the machine06:00
SwedeMikeKazuto: do you have ILO or equivalent console access so you can change settings in GRUB?06:02
KazutoSwedeMike: I don't believe so, only SSH access after the OS is initialised06:02
KazutoUnless either of those things are something I can access via SSH06:03
SwedeMikeKazuto: then it's hard. Old trick was to change grub settings so it'd run /bin/bash instead of init. Don't know if that still works with later versions though06:03
SwedeMikeKazuto: but if this isn't available to you, I can't think of a way if your system is fully updated and don't have any knows local privilege exploitation vulernabilities.06:04
SwedeMikeknown06:04
KazutoSwedeMike: Is there a way I can instead set Ubuntu to use another sudoers source file? The error I get is "no valid sudoers sources found," so this leads me to believe that Ubuntu has the potential to use fallback sudoers files, no?06:05
SwedeMikeKazuto: not that I am aware of. There is a reason you're supposed to use "visudo" to edit the sudoers file, so the risk of messing it up is less.06:07
SwedeMikeKazuto: I mean, it's designed to be secure. If you screw up the security settings, you can effectively lock yourself out. Same thing with encryption. It's not wise to have an encryption scheme where you can just press "override" like in the movies.06:08
SwedeMikeKazuto: if you can't use any of these methods: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Reset_root_password  then I can't think of another way.06:09
Kazuto`visudo` was actually the reason why this happened. I did read that I was supposed to use it, but my finger slipped and executed the command with just `-x /etc/sudoers` as the arguments06:09
KazutoAKA it apparently set my sudoers file to an empty file06:10
KazutoYeah, I can't use those methods since they require physical access to the machine06:10
SwedeMikeKazuto: well, or some kind of remote management console.06:11
KazutoSwedeMike: Which would require sudo privileges to install, meaning I'm SOL06:11
SwedeMikeKazuto: nah, I'm talking of the kind of remote console management you get with ILO or equivalent (which gives you the possibility of doing hard reset of the machine and/or enter bios etc)06:12
SwedeMikeKazuto: or if it's a VM, the virtualization software usually offers the same thing06:12
Ben64your finger slipped and you accidentally typed "-x /etc/sudoers" i call manure06:12

KazutoBen64: When I hit the end quote, yes06:13
SwedeMikeBen64: there is no need to pour salt into wounds.06:13
Ben64this doesn't add up06:13
SwedeMikethis meta discussion is useless.06:13
KazutoBen64: Case in point, I messed up the command and I'm locked out of any administration for my server. How it happened didn't really matter06:14

Ben64so you are making things up. cool, well boot into recovery mode. get physical access, done06:14

gg4g4i ened up going back to 14.4=0406:50
davosYeah I was very assumptive when I built this PC.  I just assumed AMD would have good support for an Asus 390 on Linux.  Very dissapointing that I have to open the PC and disconnect the card whenever I want to do actual work.  14.04 is much worse for me.06:52
JackJonescfhowlett, could be a victim of a MITM attack?06:52
cfhowlettdavos, I admire your spirit for doing the home build!  that said, the sanest option might be to replace the card with something you *know* is supported.06:53
cfhowlettJackJones, I am not qualified to speak on such things and did not see what prompted your suspicions.  If you are using a public wifi, that possibility is far from unlikely06:54
davosYeah I'm thinking of doing that actually.  It cost about AUD600, which I think adds to the dissapointment.  Oh well, I should have done my research06:54
cfhowlettdavos, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCards06:55
cfhowlettoh, wait.  that link is HELLA old!06:55
YankDownUnderdavos, Just a question pertaining to your choice of window managers/desktop environments - if Unity and Gnome3 "shat" themselves with this card, did you not try any other window managers/desktop environments to see if there was less of an issue? Just asking for my own information...06:56
cfhowlettdavos, perhaps this would be better  https://h-node.org/videocards/catalogue/en06:57

connyosis_funkylab_: under power in gnome tweak tool there are settings for this, but it's already set to suspend09:17

ben-qhello11:40
faheemazizmMonkeyDust, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS \n \l11:40
YankDownUnderfaheemazizm, I'll safely assume the internal reader is NOT malfunctioning - have you put the SD card into anything else? Because if there are issues, it's most likely with "writes" to the card...does that make sense?11:40
faheemazizmYankDownUnder, essentially ur telling me to test the card on another SD reader?11:41
YankDownUnderfaheemazizm, Precisely.11:41
faheemazizmYankDownUnder, sick stuff, this is why i come to the ubuntu channel. ;')11:41
YankDownUnderfaheemazizm, Awesome.11:42
faheemazizmEarlier today I inserted my SD card and unmounted the /dev/sdb1 , after writing the files to the SD card I cannot see the USB in the Explorer, what can i do?11:42
BluesKajexplorer is a MS term , in linux it's called the file manager11:43
YankDownUnderfaheemazizm, If you can see the SD card using a different reader, or a different machine, there may be issues with the "file system" that was written to the card. If anything, you can use "gparted" to view the partition on the SD card - and possibly fix the issues - if they exist...11:43
faheemazizmYankDownUnder, it is a write issue, i assume e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb111:44
faheemazizmBluesKaj, does it matter? words dont have meaning, meaning is in the mind11:44
YankDownUnderfaheemazizm, Well, there you have it. You can either fix them from the terminal, or you can use gparted to fix them. Easy done.11:45
BluesKajfaheemazizm, no it's in the text/words we use , this is not a mind reader chat11:45
faheemazizmYankDownUnder, not visable in gparted11:45

faheemazizmducasse, done this multimple times11:46
ben-qhour until it will disconnect again.11:46
YankDownUnderfaheemazizm, Then your option is from the terminal...and if the SD card is not being "mounted" or "seen" - you may want to reboot the machine and try again - because you're obviously going to have to "see" the SD in order to repair the filesystem...hmm...11:46

faheemazizmducasse, it is11:47

Ali1ram is 16 gb13:53
juseri had hard time resizing partitions with acronis true image.13:54
EvropiMight have bricked my system13:55
EriC^^Ali1: i7 is definitely better i'd think, depending on cores and cpu speed13:55
arccos_Ali1:i7 is better ,because 7 > 513:56
EvropiSo I wanted to ditch kubuntu for ubuntu. I installed ubuntu-desktop but it got stuck on the google account package and couldn't overwrite it as kaccounts was using it13:56
EvropiApt get -f cannot fix it13:56
EvropiAt the same time I'm not allowed to remoce the kde paxkage that locks it13:56
EvropiI also rebooted and now everything is broken and I've been dropped into a shell... what should I do?13:57
beowulf_evropi, backup important files and install ubuntu from official iso.13:59
EvropiThere has to be some way13:59
juserI didn't know VMS was still around.13:59
beowulf_evropi, switching manually is not recommended.13:59
EvropiI just need to sort out that pkg13:59
beowulf_evropi, it is possible but probably not worth it.13:59
EvropiI'm in an endless loop of apt asking to meet dependencies, a kde package not allowing it and being unable to remove kde because apt wants me to -f install first but I can't14:01
snfgfFor bootable USB, is 'dd if=distro.iso of=/dev/sdb' good, assuming /dev/sdb is my USB drive?14:02
ducasseEvropi: aptitude is sometimes smarter at resolving dependencies, have you tried that?14:02
EriC^^snfgf: add bs=4M at the end14:02
snfgfEriC^^: Thanks. Why is that?14:03
z4cis it possible to change the size of the tabs in the terminal? they are frikking big, bugs me14:03
EriC^^snfgf: it'll be like 10x faster14:03
EvropiCan't install aptitude, as mentioned it asks me to apt-get -f install which does not work14:03
Evropi(Sorry for not highlighting, it's tough to do on mobile14:04
ducasseEvropi: you can probably grab the .deb manually and install it with dpkg -i, though.14:04

ubottuEvropi: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter multiarch problems on non-updated 12.04 installs, see  http://pad.lv/831768 for more information.14:04
BluesKajEvropi, you don't neeed aptitiude, just use apt14:05
EvropiAh so apt is aptitude? That's what I generally use14:05

curlyearsso, a question:  what is a recommended way to calculate the size for your /swap partition.  The 11.04.4 installer sets mine to 25GB.  I have 24GB of RAM, and I  strongly suspect there's a corealtion there19:03
xervanswow thats a lot of ram. do you mean how to calculate what it ought to be?19:03
curlyearsdaed:  it would probably help if you identified which release of ubuntu you're runnning19:03

curlyearsyes, xervans, that is what I mean19:04

daedcurlyears: completely removed old configs, uninstalled pulseaudio + equalizer, reinstalled everything, now it works19:43

curlyearsbethann336, :  when you boot from the linux install media, it comes up first thing and oiffers you a choic e between a Live DVD run, or an iinstall run19:56
curlyearsbethann336, so you could download both 14.04.4 and 16.04, make two DVDs (or USBs) and try both, see which works etter for you19:57
curlyears14.044 will continue to be support until 2019, 16.04 until 202119:57
ash_workzOerHeks: any ideas? It wasn't carried over from a previous install (like, I didn't upgrade to 14 from 12 or anything)19:58
OerHeksash_workz, question yourself, how did you add virtualbox repo ?19:58
bethann336@curlyears: thanx i will try that gotta find all my thumb drives first, thanx.19:58
akikcurlyears: isn't it so that you can not test the closed source nvidia driver in the live session?19:59
bethann336another question, if i choose to actually install onto my hardrive, will it remove windows altogether?19:59
Ben64you could choose to dual boot19:59
Ben64and 16.04 is what you should choose at this point19:59
curlyearsakik:  probably, I would imagine.20:00
bethann336don't think i have the resources to have both tbh, is there any good reason to leave windows on?20:00
Ben64you like it?20:00
ash_workzOerHeks: yeah, I probably followed instructions to add it on https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads20:00
curlyearsbethann336, how much free HDD space do you have?20:00
ash_workzwhich explicitly says to20:00
ash_workzthanks OerHeks20:00
bethann336i have no problems with windows 7, honestly, but i don't like where windows is going now20:00
Ben64ash_workz: protip - search the software center for things before going to websites20:01
ash_workzBen64: :)20:01
curlyearsbethann336, you can install it to a separate partition, if you choose to dual boot20:01
Ben64ash_workz: virtualbox is in the repository already, the one you added is a newer version and has some cool additional features, but it's not good to do that for everything you'd want to install20:01
ash_workzBen64: thanks, I honestly don't even remember *how* I added it; I usually try to install things via apt-get install if possible20:02
* curlyears is proud to say that no Mickey$hit software has ever demeaned thih\s hardware20:03
ash_workzthough, now that you mention it, I vaguely remember going through the software center20:03

curlyearssowwy, Ben6420:03
k1lcurlyears: we dont need to talk bad about other OS or projects to make us feel better. we try to focus on the technical issues in here.20:04
curlyearsI repeat my query for the third time:  what are the currect estimates of worldwide installations of ubuntu?  Last time I heard, they were around 10 million20:04
k1lcurlyears: you cna only guess the number. since there is no licence key that could be counted.20:05
OerHekscurlyears, there are no stats about that, AFAIK20:05
bethann336is there a resource that shows/compares the different iterations of linux so that i might clearly see the differences?20:05
k1lcurlyears: http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2015/12/more-people-use-ubuntu-than-anyone.html20:06
OerHeksbethann336, check out distrowatch20:06
curlyearsOerheks:  I have seen on a website somewhere and estimate of the installs for WinBlows vs linux (not ubuntu specifically. actually., but all linux')20:06
ash_workzthanks Ben6420:06
bethann336@OerHeks: could you please link me to that?20:07

friendofkiwii have problem with java, since i upgraded to 16.04, is there any quick fix ?20:08
k1lbethann336: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux_distributions20:08
friendofkiwii googled my head and tried everything20:08
OerHekscurlyears, even the numbers on https://distrowatch.com are just their clicks to the distro page, does not count as installed/download at all20:09
Ben64friendofkiwi: java what, what problem20:09
friendofkiwiBen64 i think it has been removed in the upgrading process20:11
friendofkiwiE: Package 'oracle-java7-installer' has no installation candidate20:11
friendofkiwiand now this message, for every version i try to install20:12
Ben64that package was never in ubuntu, you used some 3rd party repository20:12
OerHeks!java20:12
ubottuTo just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software  Development Kit" (SDK).  Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations.20:12
friendofkiwiokay thanks guys20:13
OerHeks"Oracle has declared Java 8 to be fit for general use."20:13
curlyearsk1l:  *wow* those numbers are truly astounding.  That article estimates that direct and indirectly, over 1 BILLION people benefir form an installation of ubuntu.  With numbers like that, it is bafflinf how many hardware vendors DON'T support linux.20:13

sebthreeM10whitehi20:36
frostschutzcicko, dd is not aware of partition tables, file systems, etc. so obviously you have to make sure the copy will still make sense if the end is missing... otherwise the answer is: no, you shouldn't do that20:36
cickofrostschutz only about half the size of the smaller one is used on the bigger one, else is the empty space. is it possible to clone used space only?20:38
aurimeneshey20:38
frostschutzcicko, dd is not aware of filesystem notions like "used", "empty" space... you have to use filesystem tools for that, like shrink the filesystem first using resize2fs20:38

pilneos-x is fine if you want to have your balls in apple's vice22:48

CodfectionI heard windows 10 will have ubuntu terminal built in soon.22:59
Bashing-om!ubuwin | Codfection23:00
ubottuCodfection: Canonical and Microsoft have announced that Windows 10 will be able to run Ubuntu programs without needing porting/recompilation. This functionality is still in beta and is not supported in #ubuntu. For discussion and support, see #ubuntu-on-windows.23:00
Codfectionso there will be no need of dual boot then?23:00
Codfection:)23:00
OerHeksCodfection, only you can answer that.23:01
daxsure, if the only thing you need from Ubuntu is a buggy terminal emulator with coreutils23:01
jellyCodfection, you don't have to dual boot when you have a windows VM23:01
Bashing-omCodfection: Only time will tell how well and what is supported in the ubuntu terminal .23:01
Codfectionu mean ubuntu in a vm jelly23:02
jellyno23:02
sebsebsebcodfection ther's a program called daveliki or soething like that for emuoolatingandtoid apps, but i think there are at least two for Linux.  I think Windows and most Linux distros are23:02
sebsebsebcodfection I tink most Linux distrtos and windows will be about the same for emulating windows apps23:02
Codfectionjelly, then?23:02
sebsebsebCodfection however if you want a intereting Linux based device,that can emulate most Android apps or so it seems well, look into the Jolla phone :)23:03

zenyProbably VM is better than this ubuntu terminal on Windows. But both will still be crap23:04
Codfectionzeny, so what setup do you recommend?23:04
sebsebsebcodfection I think you should dual boot you can remove Windows later if you want23:04
zenyCodfection: remove windows, use only linux23:05
Codfectionno I actually wanna keep one OS only due to 256 GB SSD only23:05
Codfectionzeny, thats what I want to !23:05
kerneldbuild a lab hypervizor and run both23:05
Codfectionzeny, the only thing thats keeping me from doing that is lack of some apps which I am used to on windows23:06
zenyBut I still think the question we should be making is: Why does Microsoft ACTUALLY want to have a part on ubuntu? Not just this bad terminal, but what is it indicating about the maybe-not-so-far future23:06
Codfectionsuch as word web23:06
Bashing-omCodfection: 'buntu will be happy for a long time on 30 Gigs .. Less if you expect less .23:06
zenyCodfection: such as?23:06
CodfectionWord web, zeny23:06
CodfectionBashing-om, yea exactly23:07
zenyCodfection: I'm not sure if I know what is that, but can't you only deal with libreoffice?23:07
k1lCodfection: there might be linux-native alternative apps that can do the exact same workflow.23:07
Codfectionzeny, word web is a dictionary with detailed theasis23:08
OerHeksUnless you play flappybird, there are tons of alternatives on linux.23:08
Prof_ElmI can't seem to get ubuntu to load on a surface pro 3 after installing arch23:08
k1lCodfection: but if you tie yourself to "i want exact that program" and they dont ship a linux version, we cant do anything about that.23:08
Codfectionk1l, how about for installing softwares. I dont wanna search for everytime on google just to install a simple app23:08
=== N3X15_ is now known as N3X15
k1lCodfection: use the software center or use "apt" on the terminal. ubuntu got software repos that ship thousands of programs already made working with ubuntu.23:09
=== Prof_Elm is now known as Prof_Birch
zenyCodfection: did you try any of these? http://alternativeto.net/software/wordweb/?platform=linux23:10
Prof_BirchIs there a problem with ubuntu 16.04 and UEFI23:10
Codfectionsoftware center is buggy and it always stuck on installation (i used it on ubuntu 16.04)23:10
k1lCodfection: you can load a live-usb or live-dvd version. that will not change anything on your disk but gives you a working OS. there you can test out things.23:10
xanguaCodfection: you keep saying you want to switch to Ubuntu/Linux for unknown reasons to you and you keep also repeating how you need x or u exclusive Windows program, so what exactly do you expect us to tell you after you answered your own question?23:10
zenyk1l: thats actually a very nice idea Codfection23:11
k1lProf_Birch: that tablets need special treatment due to using a crappy 32bit uefi.23:11
zenyxangua: thats a nice question afterall23:11
Codfectionxangua, dont be rude please. I wanna learn thats why I am here23:11
Prof_Birchkil: I have installed ubuntu before, and it just worked. But after a few back and fourths between Arch and Windows it seems like the bootloader won't properly install anymore. Is there a way to install Ubuntu with Systemd-boot?23:12
zenyCodfection: did you try the other apps, like http://alternativeto.net/software/wordweb/?platform=linux ??23:12
Codfectionactually k1l and zeny, I can use ubuntu entirely for my work without being dependent on the eco system I was used to on windows right?23:13
SchrodingersScatCodfection: you can you apt-cache to search the repos, or sites like the above, etc.23:13
k1lProf_Birch: sorry, i dont have 1st hand experience with that tablet.23:13
SchrodingersScat*can use23:13
zenyCodfection: theoreticaly yes23:13
OerHeksProf_Birch, so your issue is not ubuntu+uefi, but removal of old installations perhaps?23:13
CodfectionSchrodingersScat, installing every app using command line can be time consuming,. just asking. what do you think about this?23:13
zenyCodfection: I would say its a problem if you are an image editor that works perfectly and everyday with the newest Adobe Package and never dealt with GNU programms. In that case, I would recommend you to learn how to do the same things you want with GIMP and Inkscape before going directly to Linux23:15
SchrodingersScatCodfection: I think it's an incredibly small fraction of the time spent on the computer.  I've been rebuilding virtual machines all day and it's just a matter of pasting in a line.23:15
OerHeksoke i switch to osx, as installing on osx isn't time consuming23:15
zenyCodfection: Otherwise, if you are not dependant on some Windows apps to live, you can totaly substitute and change your way of doing things with linux apps23:15
SchrodingersScatCodfection: and it depends on what you do for work. I would suggest having your own toolset available if you're depending on computing for a living.23:15
SchrodingersScatown/old23:16
zenySchrodingersScat: exactly23:16
Codfectionhow to get the toolset ready>23:17
Codfection?23:17
Prof_BirchOerHeks: I have a suspicion it is. thought I zeroed out the drive (dd if=/dev/zero) but when i install windows I can see a list of bootloader entries, so I wondered if there is some kind of hidden partition safe from the inexperienced23:17
