[00:01] oh I see [00:02] yes it is homewor [00:02] I'll go to that channel [00:02] thancs [00:04] hey #ubuntu, I really messed up with my attempt at dual booting with Windows 10 UEFI. I enabled legacy boot and installed from that, and I think my current ubuntu install is BIOS booting too since efibootmgr says efi variables are not supported on this system [00:05] So Ubuntu boots just fine from GRUB, but WIndows has some kind of problem when I try to boot to it [00:05] what problem? [00:05] I think grub is booting Windows in BIOS mode: is there any way to fix this? [00:06] why u chose to go with legacy instead of UEFI? [00:06] so I could boot the flash drive basically [00:06] I set it up in the bios that it would legacy boot, and failing that UEFI boot (to windows 10) [00:07] however, I am now unsure I can access the BIOS settings! [00:07] I'm using a new Ideapad and I can only find instructions to get into the bios by advanced rebooting into Windows [00:08] why would u wanna dual boot.. instead of installing ubuntu only [00:08] and running windows in vm [00:08] faster [00:08] but my video games! [00:08] ^^^ [00:08] so just use windows [00:08] and use ubuntu in vm [00:09] faster [00:09] Codfection: dualboot is not an issue. [00:09] alternatively, I am also wondering if there is a way for Ubuntu to trigger a boot into the UEFI firmware [00:15] looks like a simple attempt at fixing this is to install grub-efi [00:16] I'm going down for a reboot now: let's hope it'll work === Aria is now known as Aria22 [00:20] back again about my gpt stuff.

I was trying to install bumblebee here by running 'sudo apt-get install bumblebee bumblebee-nvidia primus linux-headers-generic' and then reboot. But when I rebooted my startx wasnt loading. Then I logged in on tty1 and run a 'dpkg-reconfigure -a'. Now I got my startx to work, but everything is really big, it seems that my video card is completly miss-configured. Can anybody help me? [00:42] oh no, I've really messed up with this dual booting thing [00:42] I tried to install perrblock and failed... what is another decent peer2peer blocker? [00:43] oh and am i able to run tmac on ubuntu? [00:43] I tried following the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI#Converting_Ubuntu_into_UEFI_or_Legacy_mode to convert my legacy boot into UEFI boot [00:44] by firmware is set to try legacy boot first, then UEFI boot [00:44] however, boot-repair aborted the operation because I was not booting in EFI mode [00:45] So it seems I'm stuck with legacy-boot ubuntu [00:45] Does anyone know how to install an EFI boot ubuntu fron Legacy boot? [00:46] Hey guys, my video settings are really messed up after installing bumblebee. Does anyone know what can I do? [00:46] Does anyone know if i can install tmac on ubuntu and also what is another decent peer2peer blocking programm? [00:49] is there any command to access the UEFI firmware settings? [00:54] heppo: efibootmgr might help . [00:55] I installed efibootmgr [00:55] "EFI variables are not supported on this system" [00:55] I opened the Additional Drivers tab and there are 5 different drivers there for my Asus Geforce 8400 1GB video card. One of them is the "open source" driver I am already using. I tried the rest of them and they work great. Except When I reboot or shut down the computer. At that time the screen with ubuntu logo and 4 dot that highlight and some kind of shutdown text. Says things are shutting... [00:55] ...down. Just curious, But is this something I need to worry about? [00:56] so my problem is how to convert (if it's even possible to do so) to a UEFI Ubuntu from an EFI Ubuntu [00:56] *from A BIOS Ubuntu [00:56] sorry [00:57] I did what was adviced here but it didn't work; http://askubuntu.com/questions/17647/target-filesystem-doesnt-have-requested-sbin-init [00:57] heppo: That ^ to me indicates you are not booted in EFI mode, or maybe the install is not EFI ?? [00:57] Correct [00:58] WoodyPC: If you use the proprietary drivers, you'll get horrible text rather than nice graphical logo on startup and shutdown. Don't worry about it [00:58] what I'm trying to do is get it to do is convert it to UEFI from within the legacy mode it is currently in [00:58] when i go on the file manager and try to mount I get the following: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2, missing codepage or helper program or other error [00:59] mcphail: Is that text, Ubuntu loading and unloading the proprietary drivers? [00:59] http://pastebin.com/ZYi1MArm [01:00] WoodyPC: no. The proprietary driver doesn't do kernel modesetting yet, so isn't compatible with Plymouth in graphical mode. It looks ugly, but hey ho [01:02] mcphail: So my shutdown just looks funky using the proprietary drivers. it is not going to crash my system, right? [01:02] WoodyPC: it shouldn't do any harm at all [01:04] mcphail: ok..Just wondering. It only happens when I use the proprietary drivers. The open source doesn't do that. That is why I switched back to them, just to be on the safe side. [01:04] http://pastebin.com/ftqHAKik this is not working, remove dirty bit [01:06] http://pastebin.com/bUEC5yFY === cyphase_ is now known as Guest85126 [01:08] WoodyPC: apparently the newest nvidia driver supports kernel modesetting. I don't know if it supports your card, and would suggest you stick with the open source drivers or the default repository proprietary drivers [01:09] mcphail: okey dokey.

I found a client-server tcp tutorial. I tested it using a raspberry pi running ubuntu mate as a server. IP address of local internet. I mean to use it while connected only via ethernet. what would be the ip in that case? I am sorry if I did not phrase it very correctly [01:55] smellsLikeGoatSp, for a public IP, it depends on the network it's connecting to. [01:56] smellsLikeGoatSp, are asking for the internal IP address of ETH0 or thre public ip? [01:56] Are the client and server on the same network? [01:59] smellsLikeGoatSp <<< 127.0.0.1 is this local internet? [01:59] Cuando intento instalar un programa utilizando pacman no va a funcionar [01:59] edmen please post in english here. [02:00] MannyLNJ: probably internal at this point [02:00] ifconfig | grep inet # this will show you your network ip and more [02:01] gl1tch: I used 127.0.0.1 but did not work [02:01] this is where I code the code from: http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~moorthy/Courses/os98/Pgms/socket.html [02:01] smellsLikeGoatSp, then iyt's the IP asigned to ETH0 you can do ifconfig to find it] [02:03] MATE is amazing on my laptop!

Its weird, I dont know why when I put "Details" it says 5.8 of RAM; I would like that all the RAM could be use when playing online games, is this possible? [02:29] zykotick9: yep, which is 5914MB [02:29] fenix_peregrino: it's because things are taking your ram, like the kernel and other bits. don't worry [02:29] squinty: did you use a local server or the main server?

[03:13] basil2x: both were nameservers [03:13] oh, that's trivial [03:13] ipatrol: 512 gigs of ram is the lower limit for Lubuntu . The heavy wirght distros need 2 Gigs of ram for a good experience . [03:13] Bashing-om: megs, you mean [03:13] weught* [03:14] I'd imagine this person wants to do summat like use FireFawkes. [03:14] learn to love lynx I guess LOL [03:14] ipatrol: Yeah .. sorru 512 megs .. for Lubuntu . [03:14] basil2x: He knows a lot about various Linux distros, but surprisingly, he wouldn't know bash scripting if it hit him in the face [03:15] or for that matter, that the shell is even called bash [03:15] what's a good arch fork with installer other then manjaro? [03:15] gl1tch: this isn't #arch [03:15] !arch | gl1tch [03:15] ok [03:15] Right. Then he's going to want summat he can just jump in and use. [03:16] HaikuOS? It supposedly can use as little as 32MB RAM. [03:16] Nut it's reeley uglee. [03:17] well, he likes Ubuntu, and I suggested Lubuntu and he agreed [03:18] You might, just possibly, get by with a large enough SWAP [03:18] But be prepared to wait simply ages for aught to happen. [03:19] he knows it's an old computer, I don't think he's expecting a miracle [03:19] I downloaded the minimal Lubuntu ISO and I have it on disk [03:19] Well, I'm thinking he's gonna expect better than limping. [03:19] *a disc [03:20] he could try i3 WM [03:20] basil2x: well, the more data I can recover, the more swap I can dedicate [03:20] Can you mount the win partition in the live media? [03:21] and save the data to a USB thingy? [03:21] basil2x: I only get a tiny ash shell from the installer, and no recovery tools [03:22] Did you try a simple copy command? [03:23] OH... it's the MINIMAL... nvm. [03:23] You'll need a proper live DVD to do rescue. [03:23] basil2x: and I don't have the time right now to torrent an entire live DVD, plus, I don't think this computer has a DVD reader [03:23] But then you can reboot and install from the minimal after the rescue, if you really want. [03:24] however, my Knoppix torrent just finished [03:24] Knoppix might do for the rescue. [03:24] oh, wait, it does have a DVD player. Still, CDs are cheaper [03:24] I'd recommend against trying to install it, though. Proper hell, when I tried. [03:26] Does anyone know how to get a .desktop file to execute a shell script? [03:26] I don't intend to install it [03:26] epicdiamonds: sh /path/to/script [03:26] on the Exec line [03:27] and set the Terminal line to true [03:27] Ive tried that and it opens a terminal instantly and closes. [03:27] epicdiamonds: oh, you want it kept open [03:28] hello [03:28] @ipatrol: Actually I just want it to execute the shell script and not require a terminal. [03:28] epicdiamonds: most shell scripts act oddly without a terminal [03:29] wait one min, brb [03:31] @ipatrol:I cant use the actual executable of the program I'm using because I have to specify portable libraries to it in the script. [03:31] Here have nothing happy? [03:31] epicdiamonds: so it's a wrapper script [03:32] @ipatrol: have no idea what wrapper means but sure [03:32] you said it just exited, did you try running it in a terminal and seeing if it returned any errors? [03:32] @ipatrol: it executes fine in terminal [03:34] epicdiamonds: usually that means one or more programs in the shell script are expecting access to the standard streams, and don't handle it well when they've been closed [03:35] RIP Reg Grundy :( [03:35] `nohup` can fix that sometimes [03:35] @ipatrol: Strange, I ended up just copying the libraries to the system so I could execute the executable [03:36] epicdiamonds: did you try for the exec line, "nohup sh /path/to/script"? [03:36] hi [03:38] hello my nvidia driver (nvidia-352) that I install over on the "Additional Drivers" gives me a black screen after restart "I cannot go into tty anymore if I install this driver"... I have an nvidia prime setup :( hope somebody can help out http://paste.ubuntu.com/16314683/ [03:38] !nvidia [03:38] For AMD/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [03:38] @ipatrol: just tried and it does nothing. [03:39] epicdiamonds: when you run it in the terminal, does it return the shell to you immediately? or does it hold on to it until you close the program being wrapped? === awk is now known as Guest10070 [03:39] @ipatrol: it holds until i close the app [03:42] epicdiamonds: and with no errors? [03:42] or other messages? [03:43] @ipatrol: it has messages [03:43] epicdiamonds: can you put them in a pastebin for us? [03:43] I've heard nvidia drivers don't play nice with any framebuffer. You can read this on the wiki iirc [03:44] @ipatrol: sure [03:44] @ipatrol: would the >> output them to a text file? [03:45] epicdiamonds: yeah, or you can copy them with ctrl-shift-c from the terminal and paste them [03:47] Does anybody know if there is an issue with php7 and mongodb? [03:48] @ipatrol: http://pastebin.com/YZZgU02Q [03:49] LayZphp: I recall someone saying that MongoDB isn't good for holding important data [03:50] ipatrol: Any reason why or a reference? MongoDB is kind of "in" right now... [03:50] epicdiamonds: try this line for Exec: nohup /path/to/script 2> /dev/null [03:51] LayZphp: some blog post I read, I wouldn't give it much credence though, since the writer is the author of a competing NoSQL system [03:51] @ipatrol: still won't launch [03:51] haha, nice. Thanks for the heads up tho. I'll look into it.. as I was considering it for some pretty important data.. .transaction history and such [03:52] epicdiamonds: try sh -c "nohup /path/to/script & 2> /dev/null" [03:54] dkfj [03:54] exit [03:56] @ipatrol: thx for helping, turns out it wasnt executing because i was using the "./" command and it wasnt able to find my executable if the script wasnt executed in its folder [03:56] hi [03:59] epicdiamonds: that was going to be my next question, if all the paths were absolute === Poke95 is now known as Cyndaquil === Cyndaquil is now known as Poke95 [04:01] @ipatrol: whats the difference between the ./ command and exec [04:02] So everything looks to like I have php7 installed (i'm on ubuntu 16) but when I run this composer command, its saying that I'm on 5.5.9. When I say php -v it spits out 7... any advice? [04:02] epicdiamonds: ./ is the directory you're currently in [04:02] epicdiamonds: ./script.sh tells the shell to execute that script in a subshell [04:03] exec ./script.sh executes it in the same shell [04:05] @ipatrol: the last problem im running into is satisfying dependencies of library on certain distro's i try to run my portables on [04:09] ok, well, I really need to call it quits for the night. ciao === Poke95 is now known as Poke95|lunch [04:20] [04:20] hi [04:22] I've been using Ubuntu since like 2013 so over 3 years now. 12.04 was my first Linux OS. i liked it alot. now i use 14.04 LTS. i love it. ive tried every flavor of ubuntu available and pretty much HATE all of them. they all have some quirks that just make them not worth it unless I was specifically needing that OS for some reason. then I would work these quirks kinks out. 16.04 is pretty bad so far. I hope canonical just put this OS out ahead of time and will go [04:22] back and fix it as we get into the summer. for now im gonna have to spend all day today putting 14.04 LTS back onto all my systems. no hot soup for you.! no jk. === Poke95|lunch is now known as Poke95 [04:24] rew spend all day? ubuntu can be installed in 30 minutes. [04:26] i have many many pc here its ok though i have nothing else to do// one thing i have is time./ OerHeks... other than that i have had nothing but a love affair with 14.04 LTS so no probs. i can use 14.04 for the next few years no worries at all. [04:28] oh and one little thing./ i have so many pc here amd intel laptops home built towers etc. and i have found that Unetbootin works better in general than "startup disk creator". if that helps anyone idk/ just saying. also as far as persistence i just use <9999> as my value and for some reason that always works for me. [04:29] yesterday I installed 16.04. It worked fine. in evening I i set notebook in standby. today I woke up from suspend. my mousepointer is gone. I can click on things but the mousepointer itself is hidden. [04:31] is anyone else here experiencing problems with mame in 16.04? for me, games pause or lock up frequently [04:34] hi [04:35] JMichaelX, i find 1 bug for mame, not sure this applies to you to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mame/+bug/1562705 [04:35] Launchpad bug 1562705 in mame (Ubuntu) "version in xenial-proposed FTBFS on all archs except for amd64" [High,Triaged] [04:37] hmm i don't think it is relevant at all, ftbfs failed to build from source [04:45] OerHeks: i found this: http://mametesters.org/view.php?id=5898 [04:46] after reading that, i disabled multithreading (sadly) in my mame.ini, and everything seems to be woeking now [04:46] working* [04:46] oke, -mt disabled [04:46] yup [04:47] mame needs some tlc [04:47] that sure appears to be the case [04:49] JMichaelX, still worth to file a bugreport, pointing to that tread on mametesters. sure there will be others experiencing the same issue [04:50] hello my nvidia driver (nvidia-352) that I install over on the "Additional Drivers" gives me a black screen after restart "I cannot go into tty anymore if I install this driver"... I have an nvidia prime setup :( hope somebody can help out http://paste.ubuntu.com/16314683/ [04:51] it is an Nvidia-Prime Setup [04:57] # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- [04:58] #crickets [04:59] Hypothetically, if I were to be a dummy, where would I open up a task manager? [05:00] heres a weird thign [05:01] i downloaded chrome from dl.google.com... it comes as a .deb... so i go to install from gui... it starts but wont finish... so then i go commando and sudo dpkg "file_name" and not only will it not run it wont auto tab out the file name as if im trying to lie to my computer and the file isn't really there but ls gets it [05:01] also how come ubuntu just cant cant cant run dvd's [05:01] ever [05:01] wuts a dvd? [05:03] good point... but how come anyway [05:08] !dvd [05:08] Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons. For information on adding them, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | For information on the legalities involved, see the "DVD" section of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [05:08] i realize the 'dvd' legalities [05:09] but there are solutions and they never workf or me [05:09] just install libdvd-pkg and restart your mediaplayer [05:09] libdvdcss2 isn't on my dir's and i cant seem to get it [05:09] but first, install restricted extras for codecs and stuff [05:10] thomedy: isn't google-chrome in the official repos? I think it is.... [05:11] chromium is [05:11] nd when i do sudo apt-get install google-chrome- nothing shows up at all [05:11] thomedy: sudo dpkg -i /path/to/file.deb && sudo apt -f install [05:12] does ubuntu still use apt-get in 16.04? i thought it was only< sudo apt install > now [05:12] rew: it got both [05:12] rew both are valid [05:12] ahight cool [05:12] but apt is more cool with progressbar etc :) [05:12] -i got the job done [05:12] what is the -i [05:12] woot! [05:12] Rhorse: thomedy: Chromium is in the dwfault repositories, chrome is not because it's proprietary. [05:12] shorthand for [05:13] thomedy: what you can do if the .deb will not work automagically, is unpack it and install the files into a directory of your choice. Chrome is self-contained, so everything goes into one parent directory, and all the other directories are off of the parent directory, including the binary executable blob. It's pretty easy to do. Deb is just an arch [05:13] ive file. [05:13] thomedy: Short for "install". [05:13] thomedy: "man dpkg" will tell that -i is for install. [05:14] okay thank you i didn't know that about -i and now chrome is done [05:15] Rhorse: That is not an appropriate solution to thomedy's problem. Please do more to check the validity of your advice and its applicability to the problem at hand before giving it. [05:15] any thoughts on the dvd's [05:15] thomedy: Did you follow the instructions on the page ubottu linked to? [05:17] no i iddn't even se it but im in it now so i might have alredy checked it out still im looking at it === dummy is now known as Guest91110 [05:20] 16.04: First problem I had was after I logged in, it froze on the ubuntu logo and purplish screen. I tried to fix this by purging nvidia drivers, now I can't even get to the login page because my computer doesnt recognize my graphics cards or something. HELPPP [05:22] What shows up: Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You'll need to configure these yourself. HELP [05:23] well why did you purge nvidia? which graphics cards do you have [05:24] I spent DAYS looking for an answer and that's what everyone said to do [05:24] and honestly not sure, I have a Dell XPS 13 L321X [05:24] extremely unlikely that everyone said to just purge nvidia and it'll work [05:24] Hi, I can't connect to the wifi from Ubuntu: I can see the network, but the connection fails everytime. In windows and another Ubuntu PC it works OK. Does anyone have a suggestion how to solve this problem? This is my wireless info: http://pastie.org/private/womfogvzuahb2qh9g0na [05:25] I found it on OMG Ubuntu site [05:25] any idea what to do? [05:26] Guest91110: no, optimus systems aren't my jam [05:27] no idea what an optimus sytem is but ok [05:28] someone235: have you tried searching for a fix on the debian network manager issue? there is a command that you can point your network specifically and it might be the same fix worth a try [05:28] i cannot install packages on my ubuntu === jmayerz_ is now known as jmayerz [05:28] i have broken packages [05:28] http://pastebin.com/raw/qkjVCjgf [05:29] synaptic doesnt show any ; how do i find out which one is broken? [05:30] rew, no. I don't really know what to search. [05:30] https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=185742 someone235 its a long shot ... hold on there might be something here that helps but let me search for somthing more specific [05:31] someone235 what front end are you using to connect, networkmanager? [05:31] can anyone recommend some must apps [05:31] Rhorse, yes [05:31] how do i find a broken package? [05:32] rew, Rhorse btw, I forgot to mention that until recently the wifi worked just fine. [05:32] someone235: what has happened, or what did you do in between the time it worked, and now? [05:33] Rhorse, nothing special. One day it just stopped working. [05:33] someone235: have you tried booting an older kernel? [05:33] Sometimes regressions happen [05:34] hateball, no [05:34] hateball: someone235 or a newer kernel... [05:34] rew: you have PPAs messing your stuff up [05:36] someone235: well, I'd reboot and hold left shift to get into grub menu, pick an older kernel to boot from. See if wifi works then [05:36] Rhorse, hateball I don't think so. A new kernel cannot be installed without asking you, right? [05:36] on 16.04 i added repo's that are messing me up Ben64? [05:36] rew: indeed === Tristan-Speccy is now known as Guest44272 [05:39] hateball, it doesn't help [05:40] someone235: try deleting the connection and then creating it again. Sometimes this works. [05:41] I get this Error message in apt-get "Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages." [05:41] i have no hold packages [05:41] none [05:41] and synaptic doesnt show any broken one either [05:42] someone235: otherwise you can manually configure wpa_supplicant on the command line, and connect by modifying wpa_supplicant.conf, if you are comfortable with cli stuff. [05:42] Ben64: ok then... good thing i was distracted with some chores around the place here. i havent started rolling back to 14.04 yet. ill burn another 16.04 usb and do a fresh install without adding any ppa's this time. i dont need them anyway good call. [05:42] whoops, my messages to rew were meant for iLembus [05:42] oh [05:43] not sure how i mixed you up [05:43] Rhorse, it doesn't help. And I still see the same error on dmesg (No association and the time event is over already...) [05:43] don't even see a question from you rew [05:44] iLembus: you have 3rd party repositories enabled that are messing up your packages [05:44] someone235: you could have automatic security updates enabled, that would update a kernel as well [05:45] someone235: at any rate you have logs in /var/log/apt/history* [05:45] someone235: I would try to manually configure wpa_supplicant and then use wpa_gui or wpa_cli to connect. This takes some preparation, but is not really hard if you type in the correct commands. [05:46] its ok Ben64 i was saying earlier that i has some issue non specific but i need to rule out at least on 2 of my pc here that its not that third party PPA for me as well. [05:47] Yes, I would update at least to 4.4x. 4.2x is not a commonly used kernel, afaik... [05:48] hateball, this is history.log: http://pastie.org/private/efksvmanjy4rzffnlm2kca [05:48] hateball, it doesn't look like I've installed any new kernel [05:49] Rhorse, yes, I would like to try that [05:51] Hello [05:52] someone235: Are you on 15.10?

[07:43] Any ideas how I can start vlc from the terminal? Whenever I open a video with "vlc video.mp4" it fails to display any video and only plays sound [07:43] Optiprism: Are you starting vlc from a gnome-terminal or from a tty? Can you open other graphical apps from the same terminal window? [07:44] err the default ubuntu x-terminal I think [07:45] And I can do gedit [07:46] Jordan_U: Nothing in dmesg when I plug it in [07:47] Optiprism: And if you open vlc then open the file from within vlc you see the video as expected? [07:47] Optiprism: Please pastebin the output of "vlc /path/to/video". [07:48] Are there any differences between server and mini ISO? [07:49] Jordan, if you think it MIGHT be over heating please install psensor by using the command : sudo apt-get install psensor [07:49] prova, yes, size. the installer can do the same things. but the mini iso needs internet to install, server can be used offline [07:49] prova: there are packages on the server iso, but i think that's it. [07:49] Then start it up and you've got all your tempratures [07:49] aloa [07:49] wander_: I think that was intended for Dumle29. [07:49] No kernel differences?

[08:00] ty [08:04] Hello, does anyone have experience with HD video on a 1GB ubuntu system? Will it play flawlessly? [08:05] sgronblo: That depends on your GPU and GPU drivers, and to a certain extent your CPU, more than it does to the amount of RAM you have. [08:08] Jordan_U: right, I am considering buying an Intel Compute Stick which would be mainly used for playing HD videos at a trade show. Just not been able to find any online writings about how well it works for that purpose. [08:09] I feel like it should have enough juice, but would just love to hear someone confirm that it is enough. [08:09] sgronblo, example: kodi can play hd video, with just 1 gb > http://kodi.wiki/view/supported_hardware#Linux and a nice videocard ofcourse [08:10] i could not find other confirmation === Drac0 is now known as Guest62483 [08:11] sgronblo: the rpi boxes has played hd video with far less. [08:12] anyone know if its possible to edit files on a usb that had an iso written to it? [08:12] in ubuntu i can see all the files on the usb but I can't make any edits/deletetions etc [08:13] ducasse: right, thats a good point [08:14] Jack3k3, the ubuntu iso on usb is read-only, so the answer is no [08:14] sgronblo: they don't have powerful *anything*, yet they stll play hd video just fine. you really don't need much these days. a compute stick should be plenty. [08:25] I have a server running 15.04. What is the approach to upgrade this to 16.04? Upgrade via 15.10? [08:26] sveinse, yes, though i would reinstall. [08:26] OerHeks: Why? [08:27] Unless you have a complicated install, it would be faster. [08:28] OerHeks: Well, it takes considerable time getting all services and configurations resetup [08:28] sveinse: a lot of iy can probably just be copied across. [08:28] So there has to be a reasoning to why you want to spend the extra hours [08:29] ducasse: cool, thanks for your opinion [08:33] So my cpu usage jumps from around 8-20% when on battery, to 40-120% on AC power... [08:33] wat [08:36] Hello, None of my HID devices work on boot. They work in windows and in the BIOS but do not work in any distro of linux until i unplug them and re plug them. I have tweaked every setting in my BIOS a thousand times. any ideas? [08:37] phucktank: look for errors related to USB support at boot (in dmesg). If they start working after you remove them and plug them back in again, it sounds like the problem is related to when the USB subsystem is starting up at boot. [08:39] unable to read config index 0 descriptor/start: -71 AND usb 3-13: can't read configurations, error -71 are the errors I get in dmesg but Googling i can't find anything [08:42] Hi, I'm setting up fail2ban, should I be enabling each service in the config that I don't use? For instance, I don't really use FTP, but someone might try to log into such a service. Enabling it with a max try of 1 would ban the IP for 10 minutes or however long it is set, correct?

[09:46] anyone know how I can load this on ubuntu: [09:46] http://ais.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/tursi/downloads.html [09:47] ThisIsTheory: The instructions are right there [09:47] ThisIsTheory: have you installed java? [09:48] I don't know if I have java [09:49] and I don't know how to follow those directions [09:49] type "java -version" [09:49] ThisIsTheory: If you have downloaded the jar file you can type in terminal: "java -jar tursi.jar" [09:49] java -jar /path/to/tursi.jar [09:49] sorr [09:49] y [09:49] java version "1.8.0_91" [09:49] yes, so it should work [09:50] java -jar tursi.jar [09:50] Error: Unable to access jarfile tursi.jar [09:50] sudo java -jar tursi.jar? [09:50] :P [09:51] same error still dan [09:51] danieli, [09:52] Is the jar file in your current directory?

[09:54] :) === csyogi1 is now known as csyogi [09:54] ThisIsTheory: navigate to the path where you downloaded it using the cd command. [09:54] ThisIsTheory: so for me that would be: cd /home/daan/Downloads [09:55] it is in the downloads folder inside of the home directory [09:55] Probably [09:57] what is the CD command? [09:57] I tried cd home/me/Downloads [09:58] ThisIsTheory: /home [09:58] you can run "cd" without arguments to go to your home folder [09:58] cd /home/me/Downloads [09:58] then type "cdd Downloads" to go into the subfolders where downloads are stored [09:58] ThisIsTheory: but you can replace /home/me with just ~, so cd ~/Downloads should work (also the tab key helps) [09:58] cd* [09:59] that worked Fuchs :) [09:59] Anybody can answer my question?

[10:38] hi! i'm trying to rsync between local machine and mounted storage on remote server (w/ root user in remote server), but it doesn't copy, any idea why? [10:38] i think you can apt-get simulate first with the -s option [10:38] OerHeks: oh yeah its a bit confusing sometimes checking the output of `apt-cache showpkg` [10:38] but that's now showing 1.10 [10:39] !info nginx [10:39] nginx (source: nginx): small, powerful, scalable web/proxy server.

[10:56] OerHeks, this doesn't propose me to /hide/ the window and reduce it to the tray icon [10:56] You mean I would have to use a live usb and while installation it would prompt me for that.

[11:03] if you did a backup, yes certainly [11:03] I'm required to update sources.list but where exactly to find that. [11:03] llwalahoop: tails is another OS and when you install that (or migrate to that) you leave the official ubuntu territory.

[12:44] Did you by chance try and format it to zfs? [12:44] no [12:44] not as far as i know [12:45] Perhaps we should start with the question ... have you tried to install ubuntu onto this drive? [12:45] ubuntu was already installed all of a sudden the laptop wouldnt boot up [12:45] so when i went on safety mode [12:46] it said that it couldnt mount [12:46] So you previously had it working, but now it's not? [12:46] target file system doesnt have requested /sbin/init [12:46] is what it said [12:47] yep [12:47] So to confirm ... you've managed to boot into ubuntu without a live cd/usb [12:47] no [12:48] when i boot up on safety mode [12:48] i get a black screen saying target file system doesnt have requested /sbin/init [12:48] no init found [12:49] gruviovifo: does this look familiar http://askubuntu.com/questions/17647/target-filesystem-doesnt-have-requested-sbin-init [12:49] i did that [12:49] didnt work [12:49] ok. [12:49] Well the problem is with sda2 [12:50] sudo fsck /dev/sda2 [12:50] why? [12:50] Because we couldn't mount sda2 [12:50] :) [12:50] That's the one with the bad superblock.

[13:01] We're talking about loosing data here. [13:02] If there is mission critical data on the drive I'd get a 2nd opinion. [13:02] Are you trying to dual boot? [13:02] no [13:02] i have only ubuntu [13:02] ok. [13:03] have you heard of spnrite ? [13:03] How old is the drive? [13:04] the-erm, no, im a noob [13:05] hello [13:05] Hi. I'd just like to ask if wine games will still work with Mir? [13:07] I'm running 15.04, and would like to upgrade to 16.04LTS. Software manager doesn't suggest it, and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade shows nothing. Any ideas? [13:08] I'm checking another irc room right now ... looking for other smart people. [13:08] :) [13:08] chrisss123456: dist-upgrade doesn't update past versions, the command is named a bit misleading [13:08] chrisss123456: you could use the update-manager with the -d option [13:09] chrisss123456: you need to go to 15.10 first. [13:09] Fuchs: from 15.04 you need to ^ [13:09] chrisss123456: or adapt the sources.list and then do a dist-upgrade. I'd recommend a backup in either case [13:09] the-erm, thank you [13:09] chrisss123456: use "sudo do-release-upgrade " in cli. dont use the -d switch. that is for developer and will hose your system [13:09] Pici: update manager should do that, and if you edit sources: no, no you don't [13:10] k1l_: It says No new release :/ [13:10] Fuchs: well, sure, but with the systemd migration I prefer to play things safe and let the upgrade manager handle any extra steps that need to be peformed. [13:10] chrisss123456: "lsb_release -d" lists what version number? [13:10] Pici: that's why I recommended the backup :) [13:10] !eolupgrade [13:10] End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information.

[13:11] k1l_: neither did I [13:11] Fuchs: None of the commands give anything indicative of an upgrade... [13:11] k1l_: thoughts? [13:12] chrisss123456: what is the output of "tail -n 1 /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades" [13:13] chrisss123456: technically you could adapt the sources and go with a dist-upgrade, at one point it's questionable though whether you shouldn't just backup your personal data and put that back on a fresh installation of 16.04 (and that backup is recommended in either case) [13:13] k1l_: Prompt=lts [13:14] chrisss123456: ok, that is the issue [13:14] k1l_: Ok. What does it mean? [13:14] chrisss123456: is this a desktop version? [13:14] k1l_: Laptop :P [13:14] gruviovifo: it looks like sudo fsck /dev/sda2 is our only option at this point ... [13:15] we need to set this to "normal" instead of ruining your system like other users in here suggested with developer upgrades or fiddeling with the sources that will result in a ruined system [13:15] the-erm, ok === lenny is now known as jerrfry [13:15] chrisss123456: go to systemsettings -> software and updates. then change your "look for system upgrades" from "LTS only" to "every release" [13:15] you get the update to another LTS in June/July when the first Service Release is available [13:15] the-erm, http://pastebin.com/9q7qTd5k [13:16] you might not want to pipe it :) [13:16] Greetings! I'm running ubuntu inside vagrant, and I occasionally don't have an internet connection. Starting my VM then takes about 3 minutes, due to cloud-init-nonet waiting for a long timeout. Is there a way to shorten or disable this timeout? [13:16] Rochvellon: he doesnt. he is on 15.04 which is no LTS. so there will be no lts upgrade [13:16] Does anyone know the difference between Virtualbox shipped with Mint rather than Ubuntu? virtual machines can be completely full screened in mint, while in ubuntu they do not adjust to moniter size... [13:16] Is it mounted in df [13:16] k1l_: kk [13:16] k1l_: Done. [13:17] the-erm, i didnt understand that last part [13:17] jerrfry: two guesses: 1) the virtualbox guest additions not being installed 2) the GPU driver [13:17] chrisss123456: now your update-manager or do-release-upgrade should prompt for the upgrade [13:17] thanks [13:17] Running do-releas-upgrade and it seems to work! :) thanks so much! no idea why that would have stopped it... 16.04 is LTS! I'll do it after backing up. [13:17] gruviovifo: I was referring to the | nc [13:17] there is also the unity desktop vs the mint desktop [13:18] what now? [13:18] compdoc: that should theoretically not matter in this case [13:18] e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting. [13:18] chrisss123456: this will bring you to 15.10. after that you can upgrade again to the 16.04 [13:18] I know ... [13:19] what is the output of df [13:19] if /dev/sda2 shows up it's mounted [13:19] k1l_: Ah, that must be it. === Guest29290 is now known as rossc [13:19] Will do! Thanks! :) [13:20] df | nc termbin.com 9999 === Alex11223|2 is now known as AlexP11223 [13:21] err? Why df? mount, without parameters, should show all mounted filesystems [13:21] the-erm, http://pastebin.kubuntu-de.org/629 [13:21] I like the format of df [13:21] also ... I didn't know mount did that. [13:21] it's somewhat it's main purpose ;p [13:22] *its, even [13:23] Fuchs: do you have any experience with the error "target file system doesnt have requested /sbin/init" ? [13:23] gruviovifo: is having a challenge. [13:23] the-erm: getting that out of grub, or when? [13:23] gruviovifo? [13:24] how do you mean? [13:24] when i boot up [13:24] on safety mode [13:24] otherwise it doesn't boot up [13:24] i just get a black screen [13:24] It's a system with eufi on it, and from the output I've seen there's a bad superblock on sda2 [13:25] then fsck is definitely a good idea. From a live system, as I assume that sda2 is / [13:25] fsck should fix it, but it is claiming sda2 is in use.. [13:25] then mount (without parameters) should show why and where, if not: lsof definitely will [13:25] No gruviovifo is on a live cd. [13:26] ... why didn't I think of lsof ... doi [13:27] I unfortunately have to step away [13:28] gruviovifo: can I see the output of mount and lsof | grep sda please? [13:28] (similar to what you did above, just replace "df" with the above commands each) [13:29] http://pastebin.kubuntu-de.org/630 [13:29] the-erm, thanks for all your help~ [13:31] http://pastebin.kubuntu-de.org/631 [13:33] okay, that is odd [13:33] it's not mounted regularly, but gvfs might be using it [13:35] gruviovifo: can I see a gvfs-mount --list please? [13:36] http://pastebin.kubuntu-de.org/632 [13:37] does someone knows how to reverse su in a shell script? [13:37] gruviovifo: okay, and an fdisk -l please (that's a lower case L) [13:37] tim241: reverse su? [13:37] yea I mean: [13:37] tim241: su can be used to run commands as any user, it's just the default behaviour to take root when none is given [13:37] Fuchs, if I enter fdisk -l nothing happens [13:37] dont be su anymore in a script [13:37] it goes back to prompt [13:38] after running as root [13:38] gruviovifo: add "sudo" so "sudo fdisk -l" [13:38] gruviovifo: that is ... interesting.

[13:38] tim241: yeah, you can su(do) stuff as whatever user you like, you just have to specify it [13:39] zykotick9: that would make it a bit super tricky, then [13:39] Fuchs: just a guess.... ask the Origional Poster [13:40] ah, GPT [13:40] i didnt do anything [13:40] please guys, my CASE only return 0 : http://paste.ubuntu.com/16318053/ [13:40] gruviovifo: um, are you sure you are supposed to have an sda2, not sda1? [13:41] sdaaw: this sounds like a better question for #bash [13:41] Pici: ok sorry :-( [13:41] Fuchs, I don't understand the question, very noob, sorry, i have a 1tb hard drive from what i understand [13:41] gruviovifo: anyway: sudo parted /dev/sda print this, please [13:42] if there is no sda2, only sda1, you probably only have to run fsck on that one (even if that was the wrong one, fsck should not break anything, else it will warn you) [13:42] http://pastebin.kubuntu-de.org/634 [13:42] my script: http://pastebin.com/91BRj1Ff [13:42] huh, okay. Odd. Really odd. [13:44] gruviovifo: the best thing I could recommend is booting something that doesn't attempt to mount your disk and then run fsck from there [13:44] how do i do it? [13:44] gruviovifo: so basically a rescue system that doesn't put you into a full graphical session [13:45] is there another way of doing that? i dont want to be stuck without access to here [13:46] gruviovifo: none that I'd recommend, really. you don't have a second computer at hand then, I guess? [13:46] Fuchs, nope, that's why this is crucial to me [13:47] is there no way of just accessing the partition copying and apsting some files and then reinstalling? [13:47] gruviovifo: anyway, booting something like system rescue cd (named like that) and just logging in as root (should be the default), then fsck /dev/sda2 should do the trick, and fsck will tell you when something is wrong and ask you what to do, you can abort if unsure [13:47] gruviovifo: not if you can't mount it, I'm afraid. And it looks like you can't. I wonder though why something like gvfs would try to access it, fail and keep blocking the device [13:48] gvfs? [13:48] a virtual file system layer for gnome, ignore the details [13:49] short version is: something is trying to access the disk, so fsck refuses to fix it (because that indeed could damage it), so you'd need to boot into an environment where this isnt' the case and run fsck [13:49] afterwards you should be able to use your system normally as before [13:49] Hi. How can I tell if the latest Ubuntu has the driver for the RTL8723AU wifi chip? [13:49] Fuchs, ok so how do i do that, boot without accessing the disk, etc [13:50] Fuchs: regarding the problem with gruviovifo , couldn't you boot into a normal ubu live cd and kill the gui? [13:50] rangergord, install a live cd, boot from that, try it out would be probably not the best solution, but it works [13:50] * download a live cd [13:51] lyze: was hoping for a faster way, but OK, thx [13:51] ah alright ... perhaps somebody else knows a faster solution ^v^ [13:51] I am on a livecd [13:55] morning [13:56] gruviovifo: just booting into the above mentioned live system (which isn't an ubuntu, but as you need one single command: not an issue) should work [13:57] gruviovifo: you might not have a graphical user interface, but all you need to do is login as root (empty password) and execute the fsck command (fsck /dev/sda2) and follow the instructions on screen [13:57] ok so where do i get this live system [13:58] I am still having a problem getting a DVD to burn )-: [13:58] dd to USB instead? [13:58] hey [13:59] I have tried the burner that came with the 14.04.4, no work. I have tries xfburn, no work. Not sure what to do. [13:59] any one have a lenovo? idk how to disable fn key!! [13:59] download your distribution, after the boot prompt there is a window where you can choose live installation, is all is working well because drivers are installed in kernel you can with one mouseclick installation on harddisk begin [13:59] take a hammer smash the fn key done [14:00] Fuchs, this https://www.system-rescue-cd.org/Sysresccd-manual-en_Downloading_and_burning ? [14:00] Hello everyone, I neeed your help please :) [14:00] gruviovifo: exactly :) [14:00] can i access this chatroom from my phone? [14:01] gruviovifo, try irccloud [14:01] xfburn, in particular behaves oddly: i load a disc into the tray and close it. I run xfburn, xfburn comesip, complains that theree is no optical drive available. I check, the optical cdrive is being listed as busy. I unmount it and try again, and xfburn still says no optical drive, check, and it's busy, beingg held by xfburn ? [14:02] what is your problem, a40ntistos ? [14:02] Fuchs, is there a way of getting that for free? [14:02] gruviovifo: isn't it? [14:02] * curlyears loves free [14:03] https://www.osdisc.com/products/linux/systemrescuecd?affiliate=sysresccd [14:03] gruviovifo: ouch, nevermind, let's take a different one then, there are plenty [14:03] hello [14:03] https://www.system-rescue-cd.org/Download ? [14:03] i am a new ubuntu [14:03] curlyears: It is a strange one :) Everytime that speaker works on my laptop (16.04) when the song or video finished I'm hearing a voice from the speaker [14:04] gruviovifo http://gparted.org/livecd.php should do, and has a GUI, but as far as memory serves not gnome, so it should not give you the same issue [14:04] curlyears: like a static electrism voice [14:04] ah, they're seeling you pre-written media, gruviovifo . you should be able to d/l an .iso from somewhere for free [14:05] Fuchs, i am downloading the iso but i am on the livecd....how does this work out? [14:05] i take out the livecd and... [14:05] curlyears: the easiest way to debug burning would probably be with a cli tool in verbose mode. [14:05] a40ntistos, uhm, your laptop is haunted? [14:05] gruviovifo: create USB media, maybe? [14:05] no usb [14:06] curlyears: lol :) [14:07] a40ntistos, seriously, I have no clue, but then I am not much with audio on the cimouter anyway. I listen to music on a good old analog stereo system [14:07] gruviovifo: arg. Okay. Otherwise then. Boot the live CD into rescue mode, let me quickly see how this is done on more recent ones [14:07] curlyears: when the sound works everything is ok, after that is like the speaker can't properly close? or somethng like that [14:08] Fuchs, I am getting irrc cloud to be able to access this chatroom from her [14:08] the problem is that once the application stops outputting the sound, there is no source for it. Is it a voice, or just crackling noises? [14:09] have you run dmesg in the terminal? [14:09] if it's just crackling noise, it could be that the sound chip or the ouput amplifier are fried [14:10] gruviovifo: technically you should be able to reboot the live CD and instead of "try Ubuntu" just hit CTRL+ALT+F1, log in as root (should be empty password, I think) and issue the fsck command [14:10] there is a sound tool in terminal , didn t know the name yet [14:11] fuchs: really? I was unaware of that capability === Aria is now known as Aria|away [14:12] Is there a utility similar to AutoHotKey available for Linux? [14:12] cat /proc/asound/cards im terminal eingeben [14:12] that ubuntu install .iso is one impressive piece of technology [14:12] Basically want to define my own hotkeys to send pre-defined keyboard input [14:13] i got irccloud and logged in as yrittaja but it is not letting me send the messages for some reason [14:13] Trial [14:13] haha great [14:13] yrittaja, there you go [14:13] https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Sound_Problembehebung/#Installation look on this page [14:14] Ok Fuchs, let me know what to do when you re ready [14:14] i am going off, bye [14:14] yrittaja: well, if you manage to log in on the terminal (CTRL+ALT+F1, but after a reboot and _without_ going into the graphical session) technically a fsck /dev/sda2 should do the trick [14:15] with the livecd? [14:15] can you break down step by step what i should do Fuchs [14:15] with the livecd [14:16] gruviovifo: 1) reboot 2) do _not_ select "try ubuntu" or log in graphically 3) instead, see if CTRL+ALT+F1 puts you on a terminal with a login prompt 4) if yes, log in as root, (that is the username) with no password 5) if that works: fsck /dev/sda2 [14:16] gruviovifo: I'm afraid I have to go to a meeting now, pretty sure that others can help too though, if you tell them that all you need to do is fsck /dev/sda2 [14:17] quick question: if i want windows, ubuntu dual boot, what should i have first on the boot priority? HDD or Windows Boot Manager? [14:17] ok [14:18] hi [14:18] E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? [14:18] some applications (ocrfeeder, krop) cannot be started from the gui. I have to open them from cli. why? [14:18] i am getting this error, when updating ubuntu [14:18] Thanks Fuchs [14:19] Did you guys know there's ubuntu shirts? [14:20] Fuchs ctrl alt f1 did not put me on terminal [14:21] Ubuntu software center have nothing useful now... [14:21] has* [14:21] Ok entered c for command line [14:21] simple_nick, close the software center, synaptic or any other software managers you have open, try updating again. if the problem is stll there then sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock in a terminal. [14:25] How do you get microsoft core fonts on ubuntu? [14:26] !info ttf-mscorefonts-installer [14:26] ttf-mscorefonts-installer (source: msttcorefonts): Installer for Microsoft TrueType core fonts. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 (xenial), package size 28 kB, installed size 131 kB [14:28] quick question: if i want windows and ubuntu dual boot, what should i have first on the boot priority? HDD or Windows Boot Manager? [14:28] lerner: they probably don't have .desktop files. [14:28] The hdd wherr you have grub installed in TollsPaid [14:28] windows boot manager doesnt recognize linux [14:28] thanks lyze [14:29] I tried to run fsck from grub didnt work, can anyone help me with what Fuchs was helping me with please? [14:29] hello whats the best terminal program for lubuntu? [14:29] hey! how can i find the package containing the unicode symbols for shift tab caps etc. that onboard uses ? [14:29] i think my laptop overrides boot priority though -.- [14:29] Hello, i'm using the grub crypt modules to encrypt a /boot partition, it's working fine except for the time it needs to unlock a keyslot. After i typed the pw it takes 10+ sec to open the keyslot. Anyone got an idea how to debug this? === Guest2024 is now known as tobbe [14:29] I have troubles with cryptab. Which UUID should I put into /etc/crypttab? The one of the bootloader or the main partition? Because I get prompted for a password when I boot my machine [14:29] I am flummoxed. I tried the instructions at ubuntu.com on h ow to burn an iso. I place a fresh DVD blank in slot. close tray, navigate to my .iso file in my Downloads dir, right-click it, select "write to disk" and it comes up with my ios filename in the file to burn window, but claims there are no options available for device to burn to [14:30] TheSilentLink: roxterm is very nice. [14:31] curlyears, are you dual boot windows and ubuntu? [14:31] the DVD recognizes and reads already written discs, so what the ??? [14:31] platzhirsch, what are you trying to achive? [14:31] ducasse, ok thanks will try it out! [14:32] every DVD burning package I try is failing in simialr fashion. It must be something I am ding wrong, but I can't figure it out [14:32] Amm0n: I get Please enter passphrase for disk cryptswap1 on none! at boot up and I can continue by pressing enter [14:33] I want to get rid of this message. From googling I learned the UUID in /etc/crypttab needs updating [14:33] TheSilentLink: if you don't like it, take a look at rxvt-unicode. it lacks session support, though, if you need that. === daniel is now known as Guest6032 [14:34] yrittaja: you are not supposed to run it from GRUB, you need to run the live CD [14:34] platzhirsch, the UUID of the swap partition [14:34] ducasse, no its great plus the multiple tabs so useful which was lacking from the default one. Whats session support by the way? [14:34] Amm0n: oh right! [14:35] yrittaja: if you can't get to a terminal from that screen: meh, go for "try ubuntu", and try to switch to a terminal (same key combo) as soon as possible and hope that whatever blocks the disk hasn't kicked in yet [14:35] Fuchs, if I just do a reinstall will it work? [14:35] yrittaja: yes, but you'll obviously lose all data [14:35] Amm0n: well that's the one in there [14:35] yrittaja: assuming you format the disk, which you'll have to do [14:35] TheSilentLink: things like Xfce needs it if you want to start up some terminals automatically when you log in. but of course there are ways around that. [14:35] still getting this message. Can I use the UUID of the whole disk? [14:36] ducasse, o ok so it starts the terminal at login and starts to run code right? [14:36] Fuchs are you gushing out right now? Let me make a call [14:36] TheSilentLink: it can, if you configure it to. [14:37] ducasse, o ok thanks new to linux! [14:37] yrittaja: I am mostly away currently. As said: the thing you need to do is run that one simple fsck command, the problem is: the disk can't be in use for that. So you somehow have to achieve that. [14:37] TheSilentLink: you're welcome :) [14:37] platzhirsch, are you trying to create an encrypted swap partition or entire root? [14:38] Amm0n: neither, I just installed Ubuntu with home directory encrypted [14:38] every DVD burning package I try is failing in simialr fashion. It must be something I am ding wrong, but I can't figure it out [14:38] can someone assist me in burning the 16.03 iso to a DVD uder 14.04.4? [14:39] Ok Fuchs, i am good for a reinstall according to fred [14:39] hello?????? [14:40] curlyears, hello [14:40] !patience | curlyears [14:40] curlyears: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [14:40] curlyears: i like using xfburn, that alwayworks for me [14:40] curlyears: how are you burning the image? [14:40] Amm0n: seems to be a system bug, but I assumed it has been fixed since people struggle with this since 14.04 [14:40] juser: I feel as if I am being ignored or something [14:41] platzhirsch, isn't this just ecryptfs? i have no idea what ubuntu is doing there === balancin is now known as illusyon [14:41] Amm0n: yeah should be [14:41] I have burned iso images without trouble. [14:41] lotuspsychje, are you seriously teling me no one active in here knows how to burn and iso DVD? [14:41] juser: so have I, but I can't seem to get it to work this time [14:42] curlyears: lets not discuss that here, feel free to join #ubuntu-discuss === alicef_off is now known as alicef [14:43] lotuspsychje, : I am TRYING to get technical support for a issue I am having, bnot chitchatting [14:43] curlyears: then have a little patience, and dont use this channel for chitchat [14:43] curlyears, I have been using ubuntu less than a week so I should not be giving advice. [14:43] and furthermoe, nno one EVER responds in #ubuntu-offtopic [14:44] what's your issue [14:44] platzhirsch, you could add a keyfile to open the encrypted swap and store it at a save location, or use a swapfile in this encrypted home === alicef is now known as alicef_off [14:45] lotuspsychje, "patience?" I've been asking this since yesterday afternoon [14:45] curlyears: again, lets not discuss that here [14:45] hi can anyone please help me out with a permissions/chown problem [14:45] curlyears: are you a milf? [14:45] curlyears, stupid question: are you sure the DVD drive is a burner? [14:46] lotuspsychje, then stop giving me ubotto lectures about being patient. i HAVE been [14:46] I've ran a script by accident from root dir instead of the right dir and it's mashed a few things up,just trying to track down what it will have changed if anyone can please help [14:46] jonah: what was the script, and what did it access? [14:47] curlyears: I posted a reply to you a little while ago. [14:47] curlyears: thanks for helping! The script was this one: https://doc.owncloud.org/server/8.0/admin_manual/installation/installation_wizard.html#setting-strong-directory-permissions [14:47] ducasse: possibly I missed that while I was persuing other suggested solutions [14:47] curlyears: what I can't figure out though is it threw up loads of errors before I realised and hit ctrl-c, errors basically saying dir not found and file does not exist [14:48] /25/25 [14:48] curlyears: because I put the ocpath as '/' instead of just empty '' [14:48] curlyears: so what I can't understand is how it managed to change anything if when it looked for say /lib it gave the error //lib not found... [14:48] curlyears: the easiest way to debug burning would probably be with a cli tool in verbose mode. [14:49] curlyears: try wodim, for example. [14:49] Amm0n: yeah :) [14:49] well, jonah, that script is a little above my paygrade, sorry\ === arce1 is now known as arce [14:49] curlyears: it started running, a load of folders don't exist errors sprang up and I was like "oh sh**" and hit ctrl-c [14:50] curlyears: then I couldn't run any commands etc [14:50] jonah, that's why you make backups. [14:51] jonah: the script isn't cwd dependent [14:51] you're good [14:51] juser: i know, and i do have backups, but i did some work this mornign that i'd rather not lose and also just the time trying to restore everything, i've got over 1tb all zipped up as backup so it would be pretty slow. I'd hoped someone might be able to help isolate what files have changed so I can adjust them back... [14:52] cd DownloadsI have never even heard of wodim, and doing wodim --help | more scrolls the help screen so fast I never see the top of it, which more should prevent [14:53] EriC^^: well after I ran it nothign worked any more! well I couldn't run commands and also i host a few sites on apache with it and they gave forbidden errors... [14:53] jonah: the script doesn't care which dir you're in when you execute it [14:53] it uses ${ocpath}/path and ${ocpath}=/var/www/owncloud [14:53] curlyears, wodim --help | less [14:53] curlyears: read the man page, just scroll down to the 'examples' section :) [14:53] curlyears, pipe to less instead [14:54] EriC^^: yeah what a killer. But what I don't understand is I set the 'ocpath' as '/' so when I ran the script it complained that //app/somefile for example wasn't found. So I'm not sure how it could change anything if it was trying // for everything?? [14:54] if it said dir not found you probably have some missing files there or something like that [14:54] curlyears, wodim --help | less [14:54] less is better than more [14:54] joar_: why'd you set ocpath to "/" ? [14:55] curlyears, "less" provides page up and page down [14:55] jonah: it'd change a shit load [14:55] EriC^^: well you set the path and then it changes everything in that path and in apps/ config/ data/ themes/ etc - but if it errored on //apps does not exist, I don't get how it broke my system... [14:55] specifically these 2 lines [14:55] find ${ocpath}/ -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 0750 [14:55] find ${ocpath}/ -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 0640 [14:55] pretty much game over [14:56] EriC^^: really? even though it was find$// as I say? [14:56] EriC^^: and not find$/ [14:56] jonah: yup [14:57] it would go through everything [14:57] jonah: // and / are the same directory [14:58] meaning you just changed everything under /'s permissions [14:58] jonah: meaning, everything's permissions... === Guest30018 is now known as mfisch [14:59] jonah: did you run it with sudo? [14:59] nacc: ah ok so // is root dir. but is //apps/ still /apps/ - cos as I say it did complain a lot about folders not existing when I ran it...?? [14:59] ok, weird. The system thinks my 14,04.4 iso disc is in the drive, but it's npt, there's a blank disc in. I am certain, because I am looking at my 14.04 disc right now. why would it still be listed in /media/tkeller/ === mfisch is now known as Guest56459 [14:59] EriC^^: yes I think I did unfortunately, even worse I may have already done sudo su and then ran it!! [15:00] jonah: those were probably the later script stuff, that look for ${ocpath}/stuff , how long did you let it run? [15:00] jonah: backup much? [15:00] EriC^^: it ran for maybe 5 seconds maybe 10 at the most before I hit ctrl c [15:00] curlyears: did you cleanly unmount it? [15:00] hmm, that's not too bad [15:00] jonah: if // and / are the same, then yes, //apps and /apps are the same [15:00] EriC^^: yes I do have full backups, but just I did a load of work this morning and didn't want to lose it [15:01] jonah: take a look in /bin to see the permissions [15:01] try ls -l /bin/umount [15:01] ducasse; I thought I did. describe a 'clean unmount' of a DVD for me [15:01] it should be setuid [15:01] -rwsr-xr-x [15:01] curlyears: just a successful umount ;) [15:02] I tried to rm -r the drive from /media/tkeller, but it failed, complaining it is a read only fs [15:02] n, I didn't execute an explicit umount [15:02] curlyears: won't do it. look in the output from 'mount' === tommy_ is now known as Guest64529 [15:03] EriC^^: ok done ls -l /bin/umount and I've got "-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root Sep 2 2015 /bin/umount" [15:03] jonah: looks good [15:03] EriC^^: the system seems to boot ok but I can't run commands [15:04] EriC^^: I've got the raid mounted with a livecd at the moment [15:04] jonah: what does it say when you try [15:04] Fuchs: doing clean install, thx for all your help [15:04] EriC^^: I also tried to run ls -lRt | more which I thought would just show me the files altered today but can't see a lot that's changed and not sure where to look... [15:05] EriC^^: i appreciate this Eric by the way, as I'm sure it can be saved, like I say if I could just track down which files got adjusted in that 10 seconds it would save me loads of agro trying to reinstall the server and put all the data back... [15:06] curlyears: if the cd shows up in the 'mount' listing, you need to run 'sudo umount /Æmedia/tkeller' - you might need the '-f' option if you have removed the disc. === zel is now known as Guest43504 [15:07] jonah: try sudo find / -mtime 1 [15:07] it shows the files modified in the last 24 hours [15:07] jonah: hmm i think chmod's don't count [15:08] EriC^^: ah that doesn't give me anything - and it could be because I'm mounted up in a livecd?? [15:08] jonah: try ls -ld / [15:08] on the root filesystem [15:08] curlyears: i'm also guessing this is why cd burning didn't work, the system saw the drive as busy from a disc that had been removed but not unmounted. [15:09] EriC^^: the other thing is i have a few partitions. currently i'm in the partition that has bin and most of the os stuff [15:09] jonah: aha, which was the main one? [15:09] ducasse, count also type umount /dev/sr0 ( or whatever the device is ) [15:09] EriC^^: that command gives me just one line "drwxr-xr-x root root 4096 Apr 5 17:06 . " [15:10] ok [15:10] jonah: try sudo find / -type f -perm 0640 [15:11] could maybe also look for those with the group www-data where it shouldn't be? [15:12] hi gays [15:12] sup ferg [15:12] *guys [15:12] fag* [15:12] juser: yes, but since he had posted the mount point above i used that. [15:13] EriC^^: ah wow, that's just given me loads of files! in ./boot ./lib ./etc/ and sub dirs of those! [15:13] jonah: aha, those are bad ones [15:13] jonah: try sudo find / -type d -perm 0750 [15:13] anyone install ms office 2010 by Wine? [15:13] that might be good cause it runs after the first find [15:14] !appdb | nik [15:14] nik: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help [15:15] EriC^^: I could restore just those files maybe from backup?? with the second command I get loads of permissions denieds outputted, if I run with sudo on the front of the command I don't get any output at all... [15:15] ok, yeah [15:15] from the backup do this [15:15] EriC^^: oh yeah sorry you did say to put sudo, yes no output on that second command at all [15:16] I don't understand. I put the 14.04 disc back in, and it shows in the launcher that it's mounted, and only one instance of it exists in /media/tkeller, but when i try to sudo umount it complains that it is "busy" but nothing is using it [15:16] getfacl -Rpn /bin /whereever > permissions [15:16] jonah: then run sudo setfacl --restore=/where/you/saved/permissions [15:17] curlyears: try umount -f [15:17] jonah: use sudo with both commands just in case [15:17] some dirs can't be read without sudo or something [15:18] duscasse: umount2: Device or resource busy [15:18] umount: /media/tkeller/Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS amd64: device is busy.

[16:04] BrAsS_mOnKeY, you asked that before, check if your wifi adapter AND driver support that .. and in a VM, goodluck, i think not. [16:05] i have 11.802sc. it should [16:05] ac* [16:06] not sure how to check my adapter or driver though [16:06] BrAsS_mOnKeY, what in a vm, wifi? [16:06] yes bazhang [16:06] hola [16:06] BrAsS_mOnKeY, theres no actual hw in a vm you realize [16:07] bazhang, but can't i bridge or something or use the vm instead of the host?

Anyone able to help me get stuff working again with testdisk? It's not super important but it really sucks ahah. I think i might have written over the first partition, it was only tiny. Maybe got the first couple of sections in the 2nd partition which had all of the data in. Before i was messing around with testdisk, it was shown as unalloca [16:09] ted [16:10] kittykitty, what version of ubuntu is involved [16:10] bazhang, 14.04. It's really not an ubuntu specific problem though [16:10] kittykitty, sounds like ##windows , honestly === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo [16:11] Hi, can anybody tell me the command to find the largest folders on my hd? [16:11] I had a file with the partition information on the other day from testdisk but i deleted it aahah.

This is for Ubuntu support [16:14] anyone actually know how to use testdisk?? [16:14] mcphail ok, can you tell me wher I have to go? Ofcourse I have ubuntu [16:15] craptalk: you can go as light as you like. I did all my android programming in vim [16:15] kittykitty: i would make an image of the entire disk before starting. [16:15] mcphail: what? [16:15] serious man? [16:15] ducasse, i should've done that before i started ahahah. I dont even think i have the backup gpt anymore either [16:15] craptalk: of course. [16:15] it has its own file structure [16:15] no way man [16:16] you really create everything from scratch? [16:16] kittykitty: yeah, then I don't really know how best to proceed, do you have backups? [16:16] craptalk: up to you.

Who keeps precious stuff on windows anyway?? :P [16:17] jonah: hmm [16:17] hi folks, I need some help troubleshooting an issue, or at least pinpointing the cause [16:17] where is the backup mounted and the original? [16:17] ubottu: thank you! [16:17] I gave an old PC of mine to my dad that I'd installed ubuntu on [16:18] it keeps crashing with corrupted graphics [16:18] mcphail: the thing comes in my mind is that when you created a project on android it has plenty of files in it, so that it can be running on the device later on, like manifest.xml and so on. and if you use vim, you gotta create all of that? are you sure? [16:18] jonah: -p uses absolute paths [16:18] kittykitty: i don't think ubuntu is the best environment for fixing a broken ntfs anyway. [16:18] how can I confirm what component it is that has failed? [16:18] ducasse, better than the windows cmd from the recovery disk surely? Windows said they were there but are RAW, just like ubuntu [16:18] Hi! I've dropped virtualbox and installed ubuntu alongside windows. I sometimes take breaks from work to play some video games. Everytime i get back i have to spend a few minutes of clicking and typing to get my env back to where i was [16:19] Is there any way i can "save the session" so that when i boot next time, everything is as it were? [16:19] fearnothing have you run a memory test on it? [16:19] craptalk: this is going very offtopic for this channel, but the Android SDK came with all project files for ant. I think they've move on to maven (or something) now. There is no need to use an IDE. If you don't want to use eclipse, use something else [16:19] also for the point being, does it suppose to be automatically added the file structures and we can just edit the main class? i mean it is not java only programming where you can just use a single class? [16:19] can't remember but I think I have [16:19] there's a built in memtest in ubuntu isn't there? [16:20] mcphail: maven? [16:20] fearnothing yes. Generally if you run that for ten minutes and it doesn't show errors, then memory isn't the issue [16:20] yeah it's just memtest86 bundled right? [16:20] fearnothing correct [16:21] I can't remember if he's done that, will have to check when he gets home [16:21] what about graphics card [16:21] craptalk: not sure what android is using now. i heard they'd moved away from ant, so suppose they're porbbaly using maven or gradle. I haven't hacked on android since the 2.x days [16:21] fearnothing did it ever work when you first installed it? [16:21] jaythelinuxguy - it appears to run fine for a while, when I installed I didn't run it for that long, only a couple of hours [16:22] craptalk: whatever langusage you develop for, it is worthwhile knowing the tools your IDE is using underneath. then you won't be locked in [16:22] mcphail: well, gradle it is [16:22] fearnothing sounds like either RAM or the video card, I had a similar issue before [16:22] there could easily have been something wrong when I installed it that I just didn't run it long enough to discover [16:22] yeah I just want a way of confirming before replacing the graphics card [16:22] fearnothing nvidia, intel, ati? [16:23] AMD HD5850 [16:23] Does it have intergrated graphics [16:23] nope [16:23] :( [16:23] The only way I know of to test the video card is to try another video card and see if the issue persists [16:23] jonah: you could cd to the dir before them, and do getfacl -Rn * > permissions and it should give the paths saved as dir/subdir, and run the setfacl accordingly [16:23] ah, so it's unlikely to leave clues in any log files? [16:24] fearnothing you may find something in the Xorg logs in /var/log [16:24] But you also may not, it depends on the nature of the issue [16:24] jonah: check permissions to see how it saved them after running getfacl and maybe just test it first on a couple of files [16:25] hi can someone please explain me what that means ? after sudo aptitude upgrade i get upgrades and on the bottom "Current status: 0 (-9) upgradable" thx in advance [16:25] evening MonkeyDust [16:25] yeah I guess if it's an issue that's affecting the output after the final point the software touches it, the software isn't likely to have any clues [16:25] I would definitely check the Xorg logs and /var/log/syslog for clues [16:25] mm now I have to find a way of remoting into his box [16:26] fearnothing is his screen so distorted that you can't see anything at all? [16:26] jaythelinuxguy - when the issue occurs, yes. [16:26] but reboot and it'll be fine for a while [16:26] hi guys! I cannot remove proprietary driver of Nvidia [16:26] fearnothing try having him install teamviewer [16:26] when I try do that is installed previous version [16:26] how can I remove totally? [16:27] jaythelinuxguy - thanks, I'll do that [16:27] If the screen looks fine for you in teamviewer but distorted for him, that may be a clue that it's the card [16:27] wyre: tell us the whole story first, wich ubuntu version? wich driver version? [16:27] That's because transferring the screen over the internet shouldn't require the card [16:27] ubuntu 16.04 [16:27] nvidia 340 [16:27] good point [16:27] wyre: wich card chipset? [16:27] At least as far as I know [16:27] because nvidia 361 didn't work [16:27] nvidia 610M [16:27] gforce, sorry [16:27] and if the card is causing some kind of crash, that should show up in logs [16:28] wyre: optimus card? [16:28] hi lotuspsychje [16:28] lotuspsychje, [16:28] yes [16:28] I'm in recovery mode [16:28] wyre: you need nvidia-prime also [16:28] because my sistem doesn't load [16:28] fearnothing I would hope so, but there's no absolute rule as far as I know. I think I've seen a video card crash not show up in the logs but you should still always check the logs first [16:28] wyre: you can try sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall [16:29] if I find the card is broken, can you recommend a reliable card to replace it? just needs to be able to do 1080p output, and play web video, nothing fancy [16:29] wyre: sudo ubuntu-drivers list, to see which ones are available [16:29] lotuspsychje, but I wanna remove priprietary driver [16:29] wyre: you want to fallback on nouveau only? === devil is now known as Guest35957 [16:29] I'm looking at various GeForce passive cooling options [16:29] hol [16:30] lotuspsychje, yes [16:31] wyre: try sudo apt purge nvidia* [16:31] fearnothing: GT210 can do 1080p output and accelarated video. Very very very cheap. Often passive cooling [16:31] hi can someone please explain me what that means ? after sudo aptitude upgrade i get upgrades and on the bottom "Current status: 0 (-9) upgradable" thx in advance [16:32] mcphail, yes those are the ones I'm looking at right now; how are the drivers for reliability?

I've tried looking up my problems on askubuntu and nothing is seeming to show up? [16:32] fearnothing: proprietary drivers are rock solid [16:32] sweet :) thank you [16:32] Mao: perhaps some no longer needed packages need to be uninstalled?

Haven't been able to find out answers on askUbuntu [16:47] OtterCoder: display settings should allow you to select what you want the additional monitor to do (mirror, extend etc) [16:47] wyre: there's also a manpage for nvidia-persistenced [16:48] auronandace: It doesn't have an option for splitting the desktop, which is the expected behavior.

[18:27] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Open a terminal and type: cat /etc/issue [18:28] no such file or directory [18:28] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Then you are not using Ubuntu.

[18:39] rhnvrm: its not adviced to mix releases [18:41] Hey, so I have a dual monitor working via compiz config, but when I move my mouse to the secondary monitor, the desktop on the primary monitor sort of slides over to mirror the secondary monitor. How do I disable this? [18:42] rhnvrm: I wouldn't use the defauly wily kernel because it will share a namespace with the xenial kernel, potentially causing conflicts. Any mainline kernel build should be fine, though, whether t is marked as wily or xenial [18:43] so right, as i see it my only option is to use the 4.4.0 kernel for using docker right? [18:43] rhnvrm: I don't know, I'm afraid. I don't use docker. But, if it needs modules from -extra-, that may be your only hope [18:44] mcphail: i'm not very good at this, would anyone know if 4.6.0 has -extra package in it? [18:44] rhnvrm: 4.6 isn't release yet. We're still at rc stage. And the rc's don't have -extra- packages. I looked last night [18:45] MonkeyDust, i'm using ubuntu downloaded from their site [18:45] 16.04 LTS [18:45] whoever was struggling with docker, there are some 970 people on #docker [18:45] i must be typing the wrong command [18:45] I asked on docker, no one responded :) [18:46] or typing in wrong place.

[18:46] hello, has xchat been deleted from the official repo in 16.04? [18:46] use hexchat :) [18:46] Mr-Asker: Yes it has [18:47] the resolution seems wrong. Windows are loading on top of each other and I cant see the close/min/max buttons [18:47] Mr-Asker: yes. use hexchat now [18:47] i can only find xchat-gnome and i don't like it [18:47] !xchat | Mr-Asker [18:47] Mr-Asker: xchat and xchat-gnome have not had stable releases in years. xchat was removed from Ubuntu for 16.04. Consider using hexchat instead, which is actively developed and available in 14.04 onwards. [18:47] when i type cat etc/issue I get cat: issue: no such file or directory [18:47] rhnvrm: you'll see that https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds?action=show&redirect=KernelMainlineBuilds suggests there are -extra- packages built for some kernels.

How long do packages languish there before going to main? [18:59] rfleming: until they're verified and released to -updates [19:00] rfleming: with regard to the bug you state, one hasn't been uploaded to -proposed, which would then need to undergo testing before it's released [19:01] MonkeyDust, http://us.archve.ubuntu.com/ubuntu [19:01] rfleming: I assume you're also taking for Xenial, in which case, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates is important [19:02] ok guys, i'm getting somewhere now.

[19:02] MonkeyDust, http://paste.ubuntu.com/16323351/ [19:02] django_: It's recommended that you stick to applications available in the default repositories, as their code has been audited (to a certain extent at least) and is trusted by the Ubuntu developers.

I can't join my new LTS servers to my domain because of a bug, and I don't want to use a non-standard patch. [19:03] とりあえずログインテストしています [19:03] rfleming: there is no "timeline" === SonikkuAmerica is now known as Guest85065 [19:04] !jp | milkchoco [19:04] milkchoco: 日本語の場合は /join #ubuntu-jp または /join #kubuntu-jp を入力して下さい。 [19:04] HI !>Jordan [19:04] rfleming: first, the person it's assigned to has to upload a fix to Xenial Proposed - it may have to first be 'accepted' into -proposed [19:05] rfleming: once accepted, it has to build. once built, it lands in -proposed [19:05] Hello! How do I disable the "global menu" and show window's menus on the window themselves? [19:05] rfleming: once in -proposed, it needs testing, and the bug will be updated when it's in proposed. Assuming that it gets uploaded. There's no timeline we can give since we aren't the one working on it. [19:05] I want it to work like in any other distro not running Unity [19:06] excuse me, I trying connecting test. I have to sleep soon.>all [19:06] Mattx: unity-settings-manager got a setting for that [19:06] Ahh well, I guess I'll have to use the ppa for the proposed patch until it gets released to updates [19:06] Mattx: wait, its named "unity-tweak-tool" [19:06] systemsettings -> Appearance -> Behavior [19:06] teward, thanks. [19:07] but, I want to use english and talk about ubuntu . Because , I weak use English.. [19:07] Hmm, I already checked there. I don't think that's what I'm looking for ioria [19:08] Mattx, Show the menus for a window ? [19:08] see you next opportunity [19:08] ioria, I want the menu to be disapled just below the title bar [19:09] Mattx, oh... [19:09] milkchoco: " talk about ubuntu " is #ubuntu-offtopic . [19:09] hello... is there a way to upload somehjting with XMODEM using ubuntu? [19:09] screen doesnt work [19:10] porcocoluichevie: you could try using minicom [19:10] how can i install nodejs then [19:10] Jordan_U: [19:10] gosh, I can't install unity-tweak-tool, I've a problem with dictionaries-common -.- [19:11] which is blocking apt-get or something [19:11] https://gist.githubusercontent.com/9466cf4f9d8192ed75df92b0543a144d/raw/6e9710779c28172a97bc8c815ed5a79c6653894d/gistfile1.txt [19:11] !info lrzsz | porcocoluichevie [19:11] porcocoluichevie: lrzsz (source: lrzsz): Tools for zmodem/xmodem/ymodem file transfer.

[19:13] phillyj: Let's take a look at the hardware, and a possule driver . Post to a pastebin the outputs of terminal commands: ' lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D' ; sudo lshw -C display ; dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' . See where we go from here . [19:14] ok [19:14] I typed sudo app instal irssi (is this the recommended way to instal irssi?) [19:14] install* [19:14] podssule/possible ** [19:15] django_: "sudo apt install nodejs" though I'm not familiar with nodejs myself. If you really need a newer version than is avilable in the default repositories then you can manually add the ppa that https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x adds or simply download, read, and understand the script at https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x before running it. [19:15] thank you mcphail. Unfortunately I get Device /dev/ttyUSB0 is locked so maybe I need to reboot [19:16] porcocoluichevie: maybe logout/in to make sure any groups have been applied [19:17] Hello! [19:17] auronandace: here's a weird thing, Ubuntu's display settings hangs and crashes, as i described earlier, but arandr worked beautifully, first time! what's that about? [19:18] Is there anyone who synchronized KDE's Kontact (Adress data) with owncloud? [19:18] Does anybody have a similar problem with dictionaries-common, ascepp, etc? [19:19] BrAsS_mOnKeY what was your initial question again? [19:19] check this output: http://bit.ly/1TAkZ4F [19:19] err, this one: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/9466cf4f9d8192ed75df92b0543a144d/raw/6e9710779c28172a97bc8c815ed5a79c6653894d/gistfile1.txt [19:19] Mattx, i got 400: Invalid request [19:20] and also if i use sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/dumpcap is there a way to undo that? [19:20] I can't install any package with apt-get/aptitude, they ask me to run install -f [19:20] BrAsS_mOnKeY: It is a bimary and had +x before. [19:20] and then install -f fails like this [19:20] *binary [19:20] Mattx: we can't see the links you're posting. [19:20] no? it's gist. let me publish it again [19:20] i just tried the last command you gave me MonkeyDust and now it looks different [19:21] http://paste.ubuntu.com/16323641/ [19:21] https://gist.github.com/13b8598caa1166f4496cffeb32437edd [19:21] maybe its different because i typed sudo apt install irssi [19:21] Pici, ioria ^ [19:21] Mattx, ok [19:22] I don't even use any dictionary [19:22] maybe i shoulded have typed that [19:22] shouldn't* [19:23] Mattx: let me take a look [19:23] Mattx, apt-cache policy dictionaries-common [19:23] this is aptitude install -f: https://gist.github.com/99836a211d865cbc874698e72a745d36 [19:23] shows more info ^ [19:24] Mattx: what release of Ubuntu is this? [19:24] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16323698/; http://paste.ubuntu.com/16323698/; http://paste.ubuntu.com/16323708/ [19:24] ioria, https://gist.github.com/7278de1564165e89ee36221883bfddb4 [19:24] Mattx, vivid ? [19:24] if I want to undo sudo apt install irssi, how would I delete/undo that? [19:24] BrAsS_mOnKeY: apt-get remove irssi [19:24] yep [19:24] i think i should have used apt-get [19:24] Pici, not sure, it has some time now. Probably 10 months? [19:24] Mattx you too, what's the output of cat /etc/issue [19:24] instead of apt install [19:24] Mattx, you are EOL [19:25] phillyj: look'n . [19:25] Ubuntu 15.04 \n \l [19:25] yep [19:25] BrAsS_mOnKeY: In 16.04, apt replaces apt-get [19:25] BrAsS_mOnKeY: And what is the actual issue now? [19:25] Mattx, maybe upgrade [19:25] I'm afraid everything will break apart if I upgrade [19:25] Mattx first upgrade, then ask again [19:26] Mattx, you can't use that version anymore [19:26] Mattx make a backup [19:26] Mattx: Right now you have a broken system because it's insecure. [19:26] well.. i feel like i don't have much conrtol of what i'm outputting on here. [19:26] I never had luck with full-upgrades [19:26] like if i add something i want to know how to remove it, etc [19:26] Mattx, ^ MonkeyDust [19:26] and i don't know where these are outputting [19:27] i guess i'm saying i don't want to mess something up. [19:27] with these commands what where or what they are creating. [19:27] mcphail: Unfortunately I rteceive many Retry 0: NAK on sector and eventually at some point it reaches a treshold and aborts the copy :( [19:27] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Then you should not follow weird 3rd party websites as you already did, for wireshark. [19:28] * Mattx is sudoing do-release-upgrade [19:28] Mattx: full-upgrades/dist-upgrades should be done regularly. They are the only way to pull in kernel updates. [19:28] i thought wireshark was ok? [19:29] don't you guys have problems everytime you upgrade? [19:29] problems as in you have to reinstall/recompile something [19:29] BrAsS_mOnKeY wireshark is ok, but the ppa may not be [19:29] Mattx: A dist-upgrade is not a release upgrade. [19:29] what upgrade should I do? release or dist? [19:29] Mattx: apt full-upgrade doesnt mean you upgrade to 15.10 [19:29] phillyj: Mvidia recommends the 361 version driver: http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/101423/en-us / What release are you running, so we plan on where to get this driver . [19:29] Mattx, if you did something weird on you system .... yes :þ [19:29] I guess i should remove the ppa then [19:29] !info wireshark | BrAsS_mOnKeY it's in the repos [19:29] BrAsS_mOnKeY it's in the repos: wireshark (source: wireshark): network traffic analyzer - meta-package. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.2+ga16e22e-1 (xenial), package size 5 kB, installed size 57 kB [19:29] porcocoluichevie: sorry - I haven't used xmodem for years. Can't remember how to debug [19:29] not sure what ppa is. I was just following instructions [19:30] BrAsS_mOnKeY yes, remove the ppa [19:30] Mattx: but 15.04 is not updated anyway. and is lacking a lot of important security updates. [19:30] BrAsS_mOnKeY: and remove all software installed from that PPA, before. [19:30] Pici, should I dist or release upgrade? [19:30] not sure how [19:31] Bashing-om: nvidia x-server info says 340.96 [19:31] Mattx, first backup, the do-release-upgrade [19:31] !upgrade | Mattx [19:31] Mattx: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [19:31] Mattx: to update to 15.10 use "update-manager " or "do-release-upgrade" on cli [19:31] Is there maybe an rsync cache or something like that? A way to speed up rsync for a directory you frequently do rsync to? [19:31] Mattx: what ioria said. But in the future you should be doing dist-upgrades regularly. [19:31] ok, got it [19:32] phillyj: Yeah .. we do want the correct driver . What release is this .. 16.04 has that driver in the repo ?? [19:32] Mattx, when your system is stable, you can do-release-upgrade to 16.04, that is the latest [19:32] 12.04.5 lts, Bashing-om [19:33] hi. i have a pci-e ssd, and want to sync my system to it to boot from, but i have an encrypted home drive i'd like to replicate too. what's the easiest way to achive this? [19:33] btw, how "regularly"? [19:34] Bashing-om: it was working fine till today so maybe an update broke the driver [19:34] once a week? month? [19:34] phillyj: Ouch, that goes back a ways ... we will require our trustd PPA to get the 361 version driver . Are you comfortable with this as a solution ? [19:34] yea [19:34] anyway to check what software might have been install from ppa? [19:34] and how to remove ppa? [19:34] Can someone give me a hint what to do with a KDE Kontact error message similar to "Entry was not deleted from the server, Ressource could not be deleted" when trying to sync with Owncloud? [19:34] I don't want to have much to upgrade in a single dist-upgrade so it doesn't break apart :P [19:35] Mattx: that isn't how it works [19:35] Trying to sync the contacts between Kontact and Owncloud [19:35] Mattx, update - upgrade - dist-upgrade (or apt update and full-upgrade) ? i do it every boot, no issue [19:36] phillyj: Now nothing says we can not clean things up - from multiple install attempts .. and install the 340 version driver, See what results . [19:36] Mattx, I do the same like Ioria, works fine. [19:36] cool [19:36] ok [19:36] BrAsS_mOnKeY in system settings > updates > sources ... delete the ppa and reload [19:37] phillyj: Which do you want .. install from the repo .. or install from PPA ? [19:38] Bashing-om: whichever is better method [19:38] I guess it's wise not to have a script that automatically full-upgrade on boot, and you check the list of changes. right? [19:38] ok thanks [19:38] done. [19:38] Mattx: Yes, thats wise, not to do that without reviewing it before. [19:38] was my system compromised [19:38] ? [19:38] Mattx, /var/log/apt/history.log [19:39] has anyone got this too? http://paste.ubuntu.com/16323889/ [19:39] phillyj: I do advocate to follow Nvidis's recomendation of the 361 driver. In your case to install that driver requires the use of a PPA . That is your call and only IF you are comfortable doing that . [19:39] the keys are all fine [19:39] I checked with apt-key [19:40] ioria, you do it automatically on boot and check the history if you have any problem? [19:40] that's what you meant? [19:40] Mattx, no, manually [19:40] where does liveusb session mount a hdd when you click on it in nautilus? pathname? [19:40] paddyez: and gnupg is installed? [19:40] Bashing-om: that's fine; I did that before, so a bit comfortable wit it [19:40] oh, ok. fine. I'll take your advice. thanks! [19:40] bekks: yes [19:40] de-facto in a terminal, type mount [19:40] Mattx, but with a bit of patience you can reverse a troublesome upgrade [19:40] will have to go thru cmd line; windows are all messed up [19:40] bekks: gpg --list-keys works [19:41] MonkeyDust yeah but what is the path if you click on it on nautilus? /media/liveusb// ? [19:41] there were 4 PPAs. I deleted them [19:41] phillyj: K. lets clean up .. 1st - does this file exist : ' ls -al /etc/X11/xorg.conf ' ? [19:41] de-facto the same as 'mount' shows [19:42] Bashing-om: yes [19:42] MonkeyDust i dont know what mount shows, can you tell me what the standard path for mounting in liveusb from nautilus is? [19:42] BrAsS_mOnKeY: And did you uninstall all software from those PPA before? [19:43] de-facto type mount and then you know what it shows [19:43] i cant its not my system [19:44] i didn't uninstall, just deleted the 4 PPAs [19:44] maybe i should reinstall system [19:44] do you need "apt-key list" output? [19:44] i didn't know how to uninstall [19:44] phillyj: K .. we get rid of it .. and the new driver install will nake up a config file suitable for th new driver . Do : ' sudo apt-get purge nvidia* ; sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf ' . Next we install the PPA source and get the 361 driver. [19:44] BrAsS_mOnKeY: you were told how to uninstall... [19:45] Ben64, if system settings -> updates was unistall, then yes [19:45] no... [19:45] updates and then removed the ppa [19:45] in other software [19:45] BrAsS_mOnKeY: thats removing the PPA, not removing the software from the PPA. [19:46] I was told how to do that [19:46] maybe i missed it [19:46] May 09 2016 12:24:45 BrAsS_mOnKeY: apt-get remove irssi [19:46] Bashing-om: ok, that is done [19:46] Ben64, yeah I didnt know that PPA name [19:46] that was for a different program: Irssi [19:46] what? thats how to remove a package [19:46] de-facto ok, can't give assistance if you can't follow instructions [19:47] BrAsS_mOnKeY: the PPA name is irrelevant for removing software. [19:47] you replace irssi with any package you want [19:47] ok [19:47] but [19:47] so i should remove wireshark first [19:48] thats the only package i'm aware of [19:48] BrAsS_mOnKeY: remove all software you installed from PPA. [19:48] unless the ppa has a certain name. [19:48] MonkeyDust i cant follow instructions because its not my computer, im helping someone, so i guess you dont know the answer then [19:48] bekks: "gnupg is already the newest version (1.4.20-1ubuntu3)." [19:48] BrAsS_mOnKeY: you had four PPA, and installed software from them. [19:48] not sure what the software is [19:48] de-facto: just have them type "mount" then [19:48] phillyj: ' sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa ; sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ; sudo apt-get install nvidia-361 ; sudo reboot ' . Let's see what the result is on the other side. [19:48] how to look it up [19:49] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Now it is too late, since you removed the PPA. [19:49] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Which PPA did you use? [19:49] they were something like wireshark/stable [19:49] or something [19:49] BrAsS_mOnKeY: "or something" is far too vague. [19:49] hi [19:50] Could I get some help please. I am running Ubuntu 14.4 & I am trying to get my Wacom tablet installed. It says that there is no tablet connected, but I do have it plugged in. What can I do? [19:50] is there a way to see what software I have installed and determine from there? [19:50] it should be four. [19:51] and i think they basically had same or very close name [19:51] BrAsS_mOnKeY: you had four ppas all for wireshark? [19:51] ye [19:51] ye [19:51] yes* [19:51] Could I get some help please. I am running Ubuntu 14.4 & I am trying to get my Wacom tablet installed. It says that there is no tablet connected, but I do have it plugged in. What can I do? [19:51] but i only typed one line [19:51] well that's not proper [19:51] !patience | stumar [19:51] stumar: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [19:54] ok, i found out the code. [19:54] i typed sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wireshark-dev/stable [19:54] installed the apt [19:55] updated first then installed [19:57] Bashing-om: it rebooted. In Additional Drivers, nvidia_361 is activated by not currently in use [19:58] Hi, I'm trying to encrypt my home folder on 16.04. After installing ecryptfs-utils, I try to `adduser` but I get "Cannot get ecryptfs version, ecryptfs kernel module not loaded?". But loading the module doesn't works [19:58] dubutulemude: "Module ecryptfs not found in directory /lib/modules/3.14.32" [19:58] dubutulemude: you should reboot to a current kernel. [19:59] bekks: I rebooted the server [19:59] bekks, is there a way to check software? [19:59] bekks: but I'm gonna try to select another kernel [19:59] BrAsS_mOnKeY: check software for what? [19:59] ppa [20:00] BrAsS_mOnKeY: You have been answered that question multiple times. === Drac0 is now known as Guest30774 [20:00] dubutulemude, you need to create a new user , install ecryptfs-utils cryptsetup and then sudo ecryptfs-migrate-home -u user [20:00] dubutulemude, and login right after [20:00] bekks, i mean to delete the software. I removed it but you said I should have deleted it. [20:00] so is there anyway to delete it? [20:01] BrAsS_mOnKeY: I answered that question multiple times. Please read the backlog of our conversation. [20:01] you asked me what it aid [20:01] said* [20:02] BrAsS_mOnKeY: I did not. I asked you which PPA you had, and your answer was "or something". [20:02] so now that I have a good guess of what it said, i go to terminal and remove wireshark/stable ? [20:03] BrAsS_mOnKeY: And you stated that you already removed all PPA, so you cannot remove a removed PPA. [20:03] bekks, you wanted me to delete software before removed though. [20:03] you said it was too late. [20:03] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Yes. "can I find out which software came from a PPA?" "No." [20:04] BrAsS_mOnKeY: You have been given that answer multiple times - what is unclear at that point? [20:04] but there is still software you are saying, right? [20:04] Bashing-om: why does it say that 361 is activated but not currently in use? [20:04] hello, i have a problem with apt-cache, i use : apt-cache show -o"Dir::State::Lists=/ok/data/aptdir/xenial" -o"Dir::etc::sourcelist=/ok/data/aptdir/xenial.list" -o"Dir::etc::SourceParts=/ok/data/aptdir/xenial.list.d" -o"Dir::State::status=/ok/data/aptdir/xenial.status" -o"Dir::Cache=/ok/data/aptdir/cache" lib64z1 -> i returns me back -> Impossible to find lib64z1, here is grep -R "lib64z1" === henrique_ is now known as Guest55180 [20:04] /ok/data/aptdir/xenial : [20:05] phillyj: Well ! .. can you access your desktop ? and we can look at what is going on in the X layer : pastenin /var/log/Xorg.0.log . [20:05] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Yes, since you did not remove the software from the PPA before removing the PPA. Everything else can be read in the backlog. [20:05] if i delete os, will i still be vunerable? [20:06] vulnerable* [20:06] BrAsS_mOnKeY type grep -i ppa /etc/apt/sources.list [20:06] beaver: what architecture are you on? [20:07] MonkeyDust, ok. I did that [20:07] there is no Xorg log in /var, Bashing-om [20:07] BrAsS_mOnKeY does it show a ppa line? [20:07] http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/16324149/ [20:07] um, I can't share the directory, because when I try to open its FUSE directory, Nautilus re-processes it as a network share, and doesn't apply the nautilus-share extension [20:07] the terminal seems froze. === juser is now known as Joe_User [20:07] which version is good for netbook ? [20:08] no, it shows nothing. [20:08] phillyj: That is unreal ! check again . [20:08] why apt-cache command me not return information [20:08] BrAsS_mOnKeY what happened, to bring your ubuntu in this terrible state? [20:08] MonkeyDust, it just appeared frozen, it wasn't. [20:09] kz_: do people even still use netbooks? [20:09] MonkeyDust: He added four PPA for istalling irssi and wireshark, followed weird howtos, etc. [20:09] BrAsS_mOnKeY not just this... what was your initial question, that brings you here [20:09] ipatrol in my country yes :D [20:09] how to remove chmod [20:09] bekks: that sounds completely unnecessary [20:10] ipatrol: Ack. [20:10] kz_: interesting, because netbooks are pretty much dead in the West [20:10] i added a line and wanted to know how to remove it [20:10] i think my ubuntu was ok [20:10] BrAsS_mOnKeY: you added four lines, and multiple software, and folowed weird guides. [20:10] oh, sry, needed sudo. 1 minute Bashing-om [20:10] Pici: amd64 [20:10] hi, I just have run "sudo apt update" and "apt list --upgradable", I'm running on Xubuntu 16.04 and I see some strange update 'brltty' package. I wonder why I have this package. Is it possible to know if it was installed by default, or if it's a dependacy of another package ? [20:10] *followed [20:11] i think the ppas were the same.. i just tried the same line several times [20:11] nairwolf brl means braille, for visually impaired people [20:11] ipatrol ise very useful to do some things [20:11] i was a noob trying to install (and still am noob) [20:11] Pici: you know why the command does not return me any information ? [20:11] i dont think irsii added any ppa though. just when i installed wireshark with ppa line [20:11] MonkeyDust: I didn't know this package and I've found what it was by running 'apt show'. I wonder why I have this package (My vision is almost perfect) [20:11] phillyj: The use of 'sudo' just to see the /var/log/Xorg.0.log should not be required . Ouch ?? [20:12] kz_: what happened in the West is the price and size of laptops came down, eating the upper end of the market, and tablets and smartphones ate the lower end of the market [20:12] nairwolf you can easily delete it, i did [20:12] beaver: not sure, thinking [20:12] But it's installed by default ? [20:12] nairwolf and i wear glasses ;) [20:12] kz_: long story short, most Linux netbook versions re-integrated with their mainline desktop or laptop editions [20:13] ipatrol something like this... [20:13] phillyj: ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit ' Works for me . [20:13] Pici: what i can try ? [20:13] i think lubunut is nice on netbook [20:13] Bashing-om: sry, i typed wrong things; http://paste.ubuntu.com/16324186/ [20:13] http://www.ubuntumaniac.com/2016/04/how-to-install-wireshark-203-on-ubuntu.html <-- if you scroll to the bottom , it shows you the three lines to install wireshark. [20:13] phillyj: reading. [20:13] I must have done the ppa line several times for it to have those extra ppas [20:13] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Forget that crap guide. [20:14] ok [20:14] BrAsS_mOnKeY: All you need is: sudo apt install wireshark [20:14] ok [20:14] BrAsS_mOnKeY sudo apt install wireshark would have been faster, easier, cleaner, safer [20:14] should i reinstall os? [20:14] kz_: lubuntu is probably the best option, since it's more minimalist [20:14] i'm just running a vm ubuntu [20:14] !info linux-image-generic precise [20:14] linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 3.2.0.101.117 (precise), package size 2 kB, installed size 33 kB [20:15] BrAsS_mOnKeY: at this point, you've probably mucked things up to the point of needing to do that [20:15] BrAsS_mOnKeY: in the future, if you need ANY program at all, PLEASE start by searching for it in the Ubuntu Software Center [20:15] BrAsS_mOnKeY but it's a good thing it's 'only' a vm [20:16] MonkeyDust: You didn't answered. It is installed by default ? It is possible to verify that, and how ? [20:16] !info lib64z1 xenial [20:16] lib64z1 (source: zlib): compression library - 64 bit runtime. In component main, is optional. Version 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2ubuntu4 (xenial), package size 50 kB, installed size 156 kB [20:16] , [20:16] Hey guys, I'm having trouble running my synaptics "ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad" driver and have different outcomes when comparing my liveusb drivers vs my hdd drivers... can anyone provide any help? [20:16] nairwolf yes, it's installed by default, to make ubuntu easily accessible to all, also to visually imparired people [20:17] liveusb: http://termbin.com/pltr VS. hdd: http://pastebin.com/fYa1qDu5 [20:17] beaver: I'm not sure why you're setting those variables manually, but I have to wonder what some of the other default options are preventing you from seeing that package on your system. [20:18] And I don't really know if it has to do that I'm running through an intel hdd [20:18] Thank you MonkeyDust ;) [20:19] I wanted to download it at the ubuntu software center, but I didnt see it. [20:20] BrAsS_mOnKeY: there is a search field in the software center. [20:20] MonkeyDust, since its a vm, it is safer? but now that there was PPAs installed, and i reinstall os, is there still a risk, like info out, etc. [20:20] bekks, i used it. [20:20] floam412: it seems like some xorg drivers aren't installed in your hdd? (e.g., xserver-xorg-input-synaptics) ? [20:21] I don't understand PPA so I don't know the risk of it [20:21] after i edit /etc/network/interfaces , what do i need to do to apply the settings? I'm not sure service networking restarting is really doing it [20:21] BrAsS_mOnKeY: What do you mean by "info out?" [20:21] like ip address to be explouted [20:21] nacc: how would I go about installing those? [20:21] severs uploaed, malware, etc [20:21] BrAsS_mOnKeY: A VM willnot safe you from that. [20:21] floam412: `apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics` ? [20:21] BrAsS_mOnKeY: All those things may happen in your VM, too. [20:22] nacc he is on liveusb right now [20:22] BrAsS_mOnKeY the repos are controlled and screened by 'official ubuntu people', so they are safe ... ppa's are from external, private persons and not screened [20:22] nacc: so if I do that would I need to install any intel stuff that would make my computer compatible? [20:22] BrAsS_mOnKeY more or less, that's the idea [20:23] de-facto: true; i meant run that in the hdd environment, good point. [20:23] floam412: i don't know what you mean by "intel stuff" or "compatible" [20:23] sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wireshark-dev/stable <-- at least the ppa looks somewhat creditable. [20:24] so hopefully it is ok. [20:24] phillyj: Some things in the look I do not understand .. but you are yp and running on Nvidia 361 " 5.598] (II) NVIDIA(0): [DRI2] Setup complete" . What now shows ' sudo lshw -C display ' . [20:24] only thing i [20:24] BrAsS_mOnKeY yes, but there's no need, as wireshark is in the repos too [20:25] nacc: It says that it is already the newest version (1.8.2-1ubuntu3) [20:25] nacc can he just chroot onto his hdd mount point and use apt on that? === Joe_User is now known as JoeUser [20:25] ok [20:25] de-facto: I don't think chroot will dtrt with verifying that it fixes anything, but not sure [20:25] repos meaning its not available at the download center but able to install? [20:25] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16324280/ [20:25] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Repos mean: official sorce for installing software. [20:26] floam412: hrm, for some reason, then your X server isn't seeing the same devices, which is odd; can you pastebin `dmesg` output from the live usb and the installed OS output? [20:26] ok [20:26] BrAsS_mOnKeY: PPA are unofficial. [20:26] ok [20:26] BrAsS_mOnKeY no, the software center is a means to un/install a program [20:26] ok [20:26] nacc: I'm going to PM you... a lot easier [20:27] so if i reinstall os, everything should be ok, as far as PPA vulnerablities are concerned? [20:27] Im using ubuntu mate on a rasp pi and trying to script a loop to curl an html website and regex remove two lines then DIFF the results. Every attempt I've made has not worked as I've seen by just doing the commands on the command line [20:27] i'm just worried like a back door or something has been created [20:27] like onto my host or something. LOL :) [20:27] BrAsS_mOnKeY forget ppa for a while, first reinstall ubuntu ... why are you so focused on ppa's? [20:28] i had no idea what they were, just installed it [20:28] followed instrutions [20:28] hai gaiz [20:28] is my keyfile wrong? http://paste.ubuntu.com/16324229/ [20:28] Hai [20:29] i don't know the extent of how unsafe or what damage has been done running the ppa even after reinstalling os. [20:29] phillyj: Welp, that too reflects that Nvidia driver is in use . I can not say why "additional Drivers" does not agree . [20:29] BrAsS_mOnKeY: probably no damage. [20:29] ok. [20:30] BrAsS_mOnKeY: Reinstalling yout OS means you create a new vm. [20:30] Is ubuntus defefault terminal true color? [20:30] BrAsS_mOnKeY no need to be paranoid, simply delete the ubuntu vm and create a new [20:30] default* [20:30] ok :) [20:30] Bashing-om: should I deactivate and try to activate again? [20:30] BrAsS_mOnKeY and avoid ppa's for now [20:30] anom: i'd suspect 8 colour? 256 colour terminals is the highest i've even heard of... [20:30] ok [20:31] phillyj: Sure you can try .. outside of this little quirk - all else is good ? [20:31] thank you all for explaining :) [20:32] Bashing-om: no, my windows still messed up. Is my window manager the problem? [20:32] i'll go to virtualbox and remove ubuntu [20:32] http://askubuntu.com/questions/512525/how-to-enable-24bit-true-color-support-in-gnome-terminal well according to this, there was a gnoe-terminal with 24bit [20:32] this was a few years ago, 14.04, wondering if 16.04 24 bit is the default now? [20:33] anom: you _might_ be able to check with "tput colors"? [20:33] says 256 === sic- is now known as Guest7151 [20:33] hmmph [20:33] phillyj: I got another thought .. did 'nvidia-settings' also install .. been too long since I saw 12.04, in 14.04 nvidi-setting auto installs as a dependency when the driver is installed . ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' . [20:35] Bashing-om: you can use ^ with grep to search at start of word, so "dpkg -l | grep -i ^nvidia" will only return stuff that starts with nvidia... might cut down on results sometimes ;) [20:37] zykotick9: Yeah .. that too can come in handy . [20:37] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16324370/ [20:39] anybody? [20:42] hello [20:42] do you recommend ubuntu 16.04 [20:42] is it stable or buggy? [20:42] Retina: It is released and considered stable. [20:43] 16.04 works fine here [20:43] what about the bug about package install bug? [20:44] Retina: Define "the bug" please. [20:44] phillyj: Hummm 364 version of nvidia-settings installed when the 361 driver version was installed .. not sure what to make of that . Cam you adjust your display from nvidia-settings ? [20:44] Retina, bug has solved, 3th party debs install problem [20:44] bekks I mean the bug about third-partt apps. [20:45] Retina: Can you link the bug report? [20:45] bekks no need to share the link. It is wide know but OerHeks states it is already patched. [20:45] what was this bug? I upgraded 2 days before release and didn't have any problem with third party repo [20:45] Bashing-om: what do you want me to do in nvidia-settings? [20:45] see here: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/ubuntu-16-04-deb-software-install-error [20:46] zykotick9: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16324186/ line 124 and others " 5.243] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module nv " can you shed some light on what might be going on with nouveau ? [20:47] nevermind then [20:48] phillyj: Nothing that I know of .. what is the condition of the desk top if you log into the guest account ? Maybe a config issue in your user account ? [20:50] eventhough the settings on power are so that nothing happens when the computer is idle laptop keeps logging out and turning off the screen when it is idle after a while, how can i change this permanently? [20:50] Bashing-om: guest session is Unity. WHOA... [20:50] Bashing-om: after logging out of guest into my main acct, desktop looks normal [20:51] phillyj: Ouch ! We have multiple Desktop Environments installed ? [20:51] yes [20:51] i think this was the xfce or something [20:51] i forget [20:52] ah, xubuntu [20:52] phillyj: K, if there is a continued problem .. may gave to re-configure for the desired DE . [20:52] Bashing-om: nv is not nouveau or nvidia... it's the ancient nvidia driver [20:52] What's the latest JRE for ubuntu [20:52] zykotick9: Thanks ! For that bit of knowledge . [20:53] Bray90820, you can easily check yourself in softwarecenter [20:53] I go to power on settings and set it to never go into sleep mode or turn the screen off [20:53] Bashing-om: after rebooting PC, issue is back. How do I configure for the "desired DE"? [20:53] but it still does it [20:53] I want to change this permanently [20:54] OerHeks: All i find in the software center related to are is visual VM [20:54] Bashing-om: so issue only goes away when I am logged in Guest account also [20:55] Bray90820, how did you search for openjdk? [20:55] phillyj: try ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm ' to set the default display manager. [20:55] OerHeks: By typing in jdk [20:56] hey all - anyone have a script that takes their internet speed at interval and puts it into a file? [20:56] i'd like to hold my isp responsible for giving me slow speeds so often [20:59] Bashing-om: then what do i do?

' sudo stop lightdm ; sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm ; sudo dpkg-reconfigure unity-greeter ; sudo service lightdm start ' [21:06] OerHeks: ack, and they show up for 'openjdk' too, just not 'jdk'; unclear why [21:07] nacc: Actually nothing show3 up when I type in jre [21:12] Bray90820: what version of ubuntu?

I remember there being something with EFI booting === doris is now known as Guest89826 [22:12] squinty: How exactly do I install something with aptitude [22:13] Bray90820, use apt to install sudo apt install openjdk-9-jdk for example. [22:14] Bray90820, i only suggested searching (not installing with) aptitude due to it's more compact listing [22:14] squinty: so should I install with the softwareThen how would I install? [22:14] Sorry let me reset that [22:15] squinty: So how would I install the packages then [22:15] Bray90820, just type in terminal sudo apt install openjdk-9-jdk (if that is the one you want) personally I don't use the jdk [22:16] hi === baytes is now known as eights [22:17] I have a problem, no matter what version of ubuntu i install keyboard shortcuts dont work like Ctrl + A [22:17] squinty: http://pastebin.com/raw/1V3mR7cs [22:17] Bray90820, you can use apt to install any of the packages found in the repo's if the software center is acting up (it's buggy) so you could do sudo apt install firefox for example [22:17] even when installing arch the live boot terminal didnt work with ctrl c === magicalChicken_ is now known as magicalChicken [22:19] squinty: did you see my paste after trying to install the jdk [22:21] Bray90820, type sudo apt autoremove first [22:21] "sudo apt autoremove" without the quotes that is [22:21] cannibal, here too, use your mouse to select [22:22] + right click > copy [22:23] squinty: So autoremove then install?

[22:36] Codfection, done [22:37] Codfection, do i have to restart now? [22:37] cannibal, yea [22:37] kbytes, i know 1 spotify cli client, without vu meter http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2015/05/spotify-client-terminal-console/ [22:37] come back after restarting [22:38] Codfection, thanks [22:38] Hey, not sure where exactly to do this, but ubuntu site said I could mention it here: [22:40] I was downloading ubuntu-gnome via torrent today. 3 times, and neither hashtag matched up... Figured I'd mention it so someone can check why I kept getting bogus iso's... 160.4 -64 bit. Regular download iso checksums do match up though. [22:40] squinty: Now I am getting some other errors [22:40] http://pastebin.com/raw/VZtS39Yb [22:40] Codfection, still no work [22:41] numbers: why using torrents? why not use the official iso link? [22:41] torrents should be fine.. [22:41] official torrents are the preferred download method [22:41] In case you want to speed up downloads, use axel [22:42] sudo apt-get -y install axel [22:42] anybody else have an idea how to fix keyboard shortcuts not working? [22:42] numbers, same incorrect hashtag each time? and these were official torrents from ubuntu? [22:42] cannibal, you might consider asking someone more professional such as OerHeks [22:42] cfhowlett: ok... that doesn't quite give an rational behind it though =) [22:42] axel -v -a -n 25 ... downloads using 25 concurrent connections [22:42] or use the Downthemall pluging or Firefox [22:42] cannibal, here too in terminal, use your mouse to select + right click > copy [22:42] Codfection, ok thanks [22:42] guys if some package is available on 14.04 and not on 16.04 .. can I install it manually? [22:42] numbers: are you just looking for a fast iso download? [22:42] hey guys [22:43] hey Potato_ I got some tomato ;-) [22:43] j/k [22:43] i wanna spin Ubuntu in a VM [22:43] OerHeks, ? [22:43] ok Potato_ so what's the challenge? [22:43] do i use the recommended values ? [22:43] guys if some package is available on 14.04 and not on 16.04 .. can I install it manually? [22:43] cannibal, you stated earlier that it doesn't work with terminal, that is correct. [22:43] i got the iso from the direct link and that was fine, but the checksums were wrong every time I tried to get it via torrent. Wasn't sure if someones posting corrupted isos on torrent through the main ubuntu-gnome links [22:43] yes [22:43] or firefox [22:43] Bray90820, do what the error message says and type apt-get -f install [22:43] using virtualbox from oracle [22:44] OerHeks, g2g [22:44] sorry [22:44] squinty: I did run 'apt-get -f install' just telling you about the errors incase you knew something boy them that I didn't [22:44] numbers, i am going to check my official torrents i seed, hard to believe they are corrupt, but i let you know, brb [22:44] Codfection: yes and no, depends on the package dependencies [22:45] Potato_, here is how I spin Ubuntu VM [22:45] when I try installing through apt-get it says Unable to locate package.. bprompt [22:45] (Which is where I am IRCing right now) [22:45] Bray90820, that error message states that not all dependancies were installed so that command is need to be run to try and solve that [22:45] and I use Ubuntu MATE, my personal specs are [22:45] yep [22:45] Codfection: right, that just means, it's not in the repository, is all :) [22:45] Bray90820, so did it complete without any further errors? [22:45] 2 Procs, 1.5 Gigs of RAM, 15G Hard Drive [22:45] Codfection: what package are you looking for anyway? [22:46] bprompt, so should I install the version for 14.04 manually ? [22:46] zzuf [22:46] bprompt, zzuf [22:46] squinty: uh now I got a mess [22:47] squinty: http://pastebin.com/raw/JLGaZGje [22:47] hmmm [22:48] Bray90820, yeah same problem as before then. might have to wait for a bug fix to come down the line. [22:49] squinty: I might just need to downgrade ubuntu [22:49] numbers, they are certainly correct, see http://i.imgur.com/JLkxjpv.png [22:49] Bray90820, :( [22:51] This is a server that requires java so my family members won't be able to access the music server until java is fixed [22:51] Actually if I could get a deb of the jdk i might be able to just install that [22:51] Codfection: hmmm I don't see any PPA for zzuf... but I do see it for 15.10... you may be able to use that... download the .deb's and try to install manually with dpkg [22:52] Bray90820, might want to try purging the 9 install and try openjdk-8-jdk [22:52] Codfection: on the other hand, if you have the .deb for the 14.04 install, try those, if anything, you can always just remove them with dpkg -r [22:54] squinty: actually I could even go a low as 7 since the dependencies for my music server are only as high as 7 [22:57] Bray90820, there is no 7 package available in the 16.04 repo's here... just 8 and 9. might be available though if you are running an earlier version of ubuntu [22:57] Doesn't really matter 8 and 9 will both work just fine [22:58] Bray90820, probably good to try 8 then and wait for the fix for 9 to come down the line [22:59] Honestly I will prob never end up installing 9 until I update ubuntu again :P [22:59] openjdk 8 is stable .. [22:59] Bray90820, lol! [23:00] Bray90820, really, i was thinking you were not reading correctly, i am still flabergasted with this new softwarecenter [23:01] Yeah [23:01] It's well for lack of a better term not good [23:03] Bray90820, btw, for installing/uninstalling deb's you could also use synaptic rather than apt, apt-get etc. [23:03] I think java is installed but now I can't load the applet in firefox === welly is now known as welly[away] === welly[away] is now known as welly === gms is now known as Guest59532 [23:11] hey guys === littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmeric === SonikkuAmeric is now known as SonikkuAmerica [23:13] theres something that has been bothering me since ive installed ubuntu. ive noticed that the color are much "stronger" than windows and thats killiing my sight. am i the only one who feels that? [23:13] POwerless: "Stronger"? Explain. [23:13] POwerless, so change the theme [23:14] can I know if I download something from github [23:14] how can I install or run it [23:14] I can find package for the same software but its outdated [23:14] the color are brighter it seems to me...ive changed the theme but all of them look the same to me [23:14] I know I can use dpkg -i to install package. but this one I downloaded from github is in files. so any idea? [23:14] POwerless, go into systemsettings >colour> and set the profile/calibrate monitor [23:15] ? [23:15] This should be done after install, but i had to find out myself [23:15] can I know if I download something from github [23:15] how can I install or run it [23:16] I know I can use dpkg -i to install package. but this one I downloaded from github is in files. so any idea? [23:16] POwerless: you can take a look at redshift [23:16] Codfection: read the readme [23:17] whats red shift? i dont know much about linux universe [23:17] !info redshift [23:17] redshift (source: redshift): Adjusts the color temperature of your screen. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.10-5ubuntu1 (xenial), package size 56 kB, installed size 311 kB [23:17] Codfection: and are you sure you want to install that code not using the package managementsystem? [23:18] POwerless: its also known for windows. it make the screen a bit more red according to the daylight/night to not be so bright [23:18] I think I dont have to install [23:18] just to run [23:18] but dont know how [23:18] I cant install coz its not in package management right [23:19] readme didnt helo thou k1l_ [23:19] Codfection: we cant guess what code you got there. so read the documentation from that code you do have there. [23:19] its a C file [23:19] something.C [23:19] like that] [23:20] you need to compile it first then. but that doesnt sound right at all. that is not how programs are distributed. [23:20] k1l_, ill look into it [23:21] its actually a command line program [23:21] like sudo leafpad etcetc [23:22] k1l_, wow its all VERY red now hahaha [23:22] leafpad being run in terminal instead of opening new pae [23:22] dont run everything with sudo. [23:22] I know ubuntu can be used as a live CD [23:22] POwerless: yeah, that is heavy first. but your eyes will get used to it in 10 minutes and you will see they dont get tired that fast then [23:22] is it easy to use ubuntu as a live CD as well as save files with it? [23:23] like install programs and have them saved? [23:23] k1l_, what if i want to cancel it? how do i do it? [23:23] with the live cd version? [23:24] pete234: not possible with a cd. with usb that works [23:24] well sorry about the wording [23:24] :) [23:24] i meant witha usb hahah [23:24] so that is easy to do with usb? [23:24] persistent usb is it pete234 [23:24] !usb | pete234 [23:24] pete234: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [23:24] what you mean bazhang? [23:25] pete234: its called "persistence". and the usb maker got a settings to make some space on the usb for that [23:25] cool dude [23:25] read the link above pete234 [23:25] thanks for the information [23:25] that is what i was looking for man [23:25] thanks [23:25] for your help [23:25] also see pendrivelinux.com pete234 [23:25] POwerless: kill the process. [23:25] cool man [23:25] POwerless: i use redhisft-gtk which makes me a indicator in the panel [23:26] in ubuntu server, i have changed the configuration of an interface ( by editing /etc/network/interfaces.d/eth2.cfg ) . how do i make the system recognize the new ip configuration ? [23:26] ubuntu server 14.04 [23:26] k1l_, i killed it and its still running :S [23:28] POwerless: "ps ax |grep redshift | nc termbin.com 9999" [23:29] k1l_, i uninstalled it and still it didnt fix it so i just set back my colors in settings [23:29] ok [23:29] k1l_, now my eyes are bugged lol [23:30] ygorl, sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0 # where eth0 is your networkadapter [23:30] brb reboot === nathanleclaire_ is now known as nathanleclaire [23:32] OerHeks: i do not think that reloads the network config from what i have written in /etc/network/interfaces/*.cfg [23:32] also im reading https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/1301015 [23:32] Launchpad bug 1301015 in ifupdown (Ubuntu) "Networking does not restart" [High,Confirmed] [23:32] what a nightmare [23:32] i have another question about ubuntu persistance. Is there a way to install ubunbu on usb with full disk encryption? [23:32] i think its reasonable to be able to restart ( as in stop... load in the new network config... start networking ) networking [23:33] pete234: that would not be a live system. [23:33] ygorl, it should .. [23:33] OerHeks: read that thread ! and i just tried it about 50 times ... it does not [23:33] ygorl, you think or notice this not working? [23:33] pete234: i think you could make a container to safe the data in. but not FDE [23:33] Question about mdadm. I have md0 with 2 drives 500GB and md1 with 2 drives 1TB. Can I make a 1TB partition in my fifth drive and use it as spare drive for any of md0 or md1 ? [23:34] makes sense k1l.. i guess there isnt an option in the settings to encrypt the persistant part right? [23:34] without manually doing it? [23:34] OerHeks: i notice right now its not working, when i change network info ( in a file ), restarting networking does not use it [23:34] pete234: no. no such setting [23:34] thanks k1l [23:35] ygorl: i can easily do it the hardway ( /sbin/ifconfig interface blah blah ) but i want to do it while writing to files in /etc/network/interfaces/ [23:35] lots of angry people in that thread [23:35] what am i doing wrong [23:37] ygorl, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart does not work indeed, sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0 should.. [23:38] hi [23:39] IF I set the power settings to never hibernate/suspend when idle this doesnt work, how can I open the power settings and permanently set it so that it doesnt do that from the terminal using sudo? [23:40] i just opened it by using sudo unity-control-center and the settings where set to do nothing but it still kicks me out when idle [23:41] yrittaja_, don't open unity-control-center with sudo [23:42] is there a way to get keyboard working on usb boot for 16.04 on mactel (11,3 macbookpro) ? [23:42] been wrestling this for a while :( [23:43] alsa mixer keeps on muteing itself. any way I can stop it? [23:46] pcazman, open terminal: alsamixer # hit F3 playback and use arrow keys to scroll to automute, see http://www.tutonics.com/2012/10/fix-no-sound-turn-off-auto-mute-in.html ( still valid for 14.04/16.04) [23:46] Hello all, I did installed ibus for my japanese/english keyboard and typing but the ibus needs to be started all the time I reboot the machine [23:46] ok I will try thanks [23:47] I wonder what will be the best way to configure it to start up automatically [23:51] Hi all. As the root user, I'm trying to launch gnome-terminal with a specific profile (that of my normal user account), but it's not working. I'm using gnome-terminal --window-with-profile=everson (and this everson profile definitely exists because it is the default profile when I run gnome-terminal without having first run sudo su). Any ideas? Thanks === littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmerica [23:57] jair: not sure if this will answer your question but I thought I would pass it along just in case. https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-help/keyboard-layouts.html [23:58] hey all [23:59] installing ubuntu, i want dual boot with windows..should I do nstall alongside windows or something else
