squintypiper25,  yes.  persistance is for storage.00:00
piper25i know that persitance is for storage squinty but is the startup menu supposed to look exactly the save as usb live CD? your saying click try ubuntu each time for bootup?00:01
squintypiper25,  you can do upgrades on a usb with persistence (except for kernel upgrades) the new files etc will be saved/used with the persistence storage file00:01
piper25if i install a program does that automatically save it squinty or do i need to save it in a special spot?00:02
piper25or do something special?00:02
squintypiper25,  if you want a usb with the ability to upgrade kernels, then you could do a full regular install to the usb stick itself00:02
squintypiper25, it will use the persistence file to save it00:03
piper25squinty is the process to do a full regular install on usb complicated. I tried doing that with the install feature but I didnt see an option to be it on the usb drive.00:04
piper25put it I mean00:04
piper25it looked it was going to install on laptop hard drive00:04
piper25like00:04
squintypiper25,  you will need two usb sticks; one for the iso itself and another to install to (usb acts like ssd or harddrive)00:05
piper25squinty can i use live cd on one and intall on usb?00:05
squintypiper25,  yes00:05
squintypiper25,  just pay special attention to where grub is going to be installed.  it will be needed on the usb stick you are doing the full install to.00:06
Tex_Nick16.04 unity & fallback DE ... i can no longer resize the nautilus window by grabbing the window borders/edges ... i have to ALT+Right-Click the title bar then select resize ... anyone else experience that ?00:07
piper25squitny i tried that way but it didnt see where is was going to recognize the usb as an option to download to it...it looked like it was going to install on laptop hard drive.00:07
shinhgTex_Nick: try " compiz --replace & " in a terminal00:08
squintypiper25,  in the partitioning section, there is a toggle on the upper right hand side of the screen which you can change to the usb stick you want to install on00:08
piper25squinty does the option to install ubuntu on usb come after i click install?? I was afraid to hit that because i thought it was going to install on usb.00:08
piper25on hard drive i mean00:09
piper25the partitioning section comes after you click install?00:09
squintypiper25,  hmmm...might have to select "something else"00:09
piper25when does the partitioning section come into? i remember a section that asked about encryption and using 3rd party software and then a click install button.00:10
squintypiper25,  from the main iso menu you mean?  if yes, then yes00:10
piper25but i dont remember seeing an option about where to install it too00:11
squintypiper25,  why not just try it and see for yourself?00:11
piper25squinty well i could do a backup on my laptop hard drive but if i click install and it goes on laptop hardrive it will wipe the hard drive00:11
squintypiper25, backups!  remove the hard drive for the period of installation.  or just pay very close attention to what you are doing00:13

rn10950Hi, I just installed 16.04 LTS and I am currently trying to install KDE. There was a conflict with account-plugin-google and Apt won't let me add or remove any other package until I run "apt-get -f install". I try to run that command, and it just stops with an error and tells me to run the command again. What should I do?00:30
heap_i installed it inside bhyve so no idea whats wrong00:30
Bashing-omrn10950: Try disaabling the google PPA .. I sen to recall that presently Google repo has problems .00:33
rn10950Bashing-om: OK00:33
rn10950Bashing-om: I don't seem to have that enabled00:36

BenderRodriguezAnyone use kvm here? How do I generate a basic kvm xml file01:20
OerHeksfundies, can you boot into the previous kernel? hold shift@boot and grub appears01:20
compdocBenderRodriguez, best way is to use virt-manager01:21
BenderRodriguezcompdoc: I'm on ubuntu server01:21
BenderRodriguezno gui01:21
BenderRodriguezand installing the cli version of virt-manager(if any) seems to install loads of gnome components01:21

ramrebolhow can I unpack http://www.ann.jussieu.fr/frey/count.php3?filename=medit-linux.gz  ?01:32
naccBenderRodriguez: kvm has no xml01:33
naccBenderRodriguez: that's libvirt01:33
squintyramrebol,  right click on file name in file manager and "open with archive manager"  aka file-roller01:33
naccBenderRodriguez: i think you are looking for `libvirt-bin`01:34
naccBenderRodriguez: but i don't know what you really need01:34
BenderRodriguezI see...01:34
BenderRodriguezSo virsh is also part of libvert-bin?01:34
BenderRodriguezMy whole life has been a lie...01:34
ramrebolsquinty: don't work, thats why I'm asking :/01:35
BenderRodriguezSo I can run kvm just fine without libvert?01:35
naccBenderRodriguez: absolutely01:35
naccvirsh is the libvirt shell, iirc01:35
BenderRodriguezHow do I define the disk settings, cdroms, bridged interfaces ,etc.?01:35
naccBenderRodriguez: kvm is a technology, which uses qemu01:35
naccBenderRodriguez: you pass arguments to qemu01:35
ramrebolsquinty: gunzip was the solution :)  thanks01:35
BenderRodriguezThat's it?01:35
naccBenderRodriguez: that's what libvirt is basically doing01:35
BenderRodriguez>:(01:35
BenderRodriguezok01:35
naccBenderRodriguez: take a look at `virsh domxml-to-native` and `virsh native-to-domxml`01:36
nacc(iirc)01:36
naccBenderRodriguez: i mean, libvirt supports lots of differnt virtualization technologies beyond kvm, so it's a way to standardize an API01:36
naccKVM is just hw acceleration, really, driven by a kernel driver01:36
naccBenderRodriguez: and i just checked, libvirt-bin does provide /usr/bin/virsh01:37
reisiowell, there was that moment when they conflated the names kvm and qemu :/ :p01:38
reisiowhich is basically un-take-back-able01:38
naccreisio: yeah, there is some confusion there, i suppose :)01:38
* reisio shakes head01:38
naccBenderRodriguez: qemu is hw emulation, kvm is accelerated virtualization using the same sw layer (although technically kvm should be agnostic of the tooling, it's just a /dev node with a specified interface, hence why things like kvmtool exist)01:39
naccBenderRodriguez: where accelerated means its done by the hw (in this case cpu extensions as appropriate for your architecture)01:40

phpWoodyPC, to serve those simple files, you can use nginx and/or httpd02:20
php(apache)02:20
phpIf, however, you want to expand to a PHP script or two, you need php installed.02:20

fredrikkI just installed Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on my MacBook and virtually everything worked as a charm out of the box. Then I ran privateinternetaccess.com's script to set up their VPN services and now wireless is broken (but their VPN list shows up where it should be).

sudobashinstalled studio ubuntu on a laptop with a broken laptop screen, hooked through vga to a widescreen dell lcd. Everything was working fine, even closing the laptop lid keeps screen on monitor up, but after an upgrade my main user goes blank, monitor says no signal but only on my user. On my fiance's user it comes up fine, I was thinking it was resol02:48
sudobashution difference, but can't xrandr the screen from console even with an export DISPLAY=:002:48
Munch_28Can anyone help me to figure out if it's a grub issue?02:49
sudobasherr let me clarify slightly... I can get to login screen but when I login with my user it logs in and immediately goes blank02:50
sudobashif I login with another user, screen is fine and everything works normal02:50
sudobashI'm guessing each user can have separate resolutions? Also same thing for Studio Ubuntu vs xfce window managers02:50
jiohdiMunch_28, its grub, it can't find where the init is02:51
jiohdiMunch_28, is this a dual boot set up?02:51
Munch_28jiohdi: Yes02:52
jiohdisometimes an update will cause that02:52
jiohdiusually on the windows side02:52
Munch_28jiohdi: Didn't even log onto windows. Just updated from 14.04 to 16.04 LTS02:53
sudobashhow do you reset a users resolution?02:53

sudobashxrandr -s 003:06
reisiotwss03:06
sudobasherr oops03:06
sudobashonly thing that worked to get xrandr to attach to :0 was having my user logged into X, but when I try to reset the resolution I get: Faild to change the screen configuration03:07
jiohdiMunch_28, you might try purging grub and reinstalling it03:08
Munch_28jiohdi: I'm getting an error, /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?).03:08
Munch_28jiohdi: ah...ok03:08
sudobashany other way to reset resolution or change modes besides xrandr? What happened to xorg conf?03:09
jiohdiMunch_28, if that dont work, you may have to install boot repair03:09
Munch_28jiohdi: Thought that would be involved with purging it03:10

somsipjohntittor2000: boot to a live CD and run fsck manually. But if you're having lots of problems, it could be hardware issues with the disk04:46

ubottujohntittor2000: Package fsck does not exist in xenial04:47
somsip!fsck | johntittor200004:47
ubottujohntittor2000: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot04:47

R0binh00dHey All. First of all, I googled tons but couldn't get it done. I have an HP Envy with beats audio, but the extra woofers do not work. I read beats audio has denied releasing drivers for Linux platofrm. they talk about installing alsa tools, and using hdaJackRetask tool to modify pin configurations. But then, that's exactly what I am struggling with05:15
johntittor2000_but the "-y" shows my ignorance in the matter, i have no idea what it did, I ignored everything it said05:15
R0binh00danybody has an idea or can help/suggest? Thanks in advance ....05:16

Bashing-omjohntittor2000: The -y switch is auto answer "yes"for all .05:18
johntittor2000_Bashing-om: yes I know, but it shows that I didn't care about anything that fsck would prompt me05:18
johntittor2000_it could've said "do you want to rm -r /?" yes05:19
johntittor2000_I always felt "-y" was dangerous, but this time it kept asking me about everything and I simply didn't care05:20
johntittor2000_cause I didn't understand05:20
Bashing-omjohntittor2000_: Well ,, the tool is smart, and such a thing world not be in it's error checking .05:21
snadgesomsip, killall worked for me05:22
somsipsnadge: fair enough05:22
snadgeon an unrelated note.. i wish it didn't.. as the news i was looking for from someone on skype, was instead not positive news.. but negative05:23
johntittor2000_Bashing-om: I know, but my point is, it prompts you for a reason, it gives you the choice for a reason, otherwise it would be -y by default, so that was kind of a leap of faith, right?05:23
SQLgetting many ubuntu-on-windows questions here yet?05:23

Flanneltavi: yes, you can upgrade without new media.  It won't delete your files.  I don't know how much "heavier" lubuntu got between 12.04 and 14.04 (that'd be a good question for #lubuntu).06:38
FlannelMaxFrames: LTS upgrades don't automatically show up until the first point release (16.04.1), which is 3 months after the first release (16.04)06:38
MaxFramesI see06:38
FlannelMaxFrames: You can give it a "nudge" to make it see it early, or just wait for a month or two and it'll automatically show up.06:38
MaxFrameshow (do I install it now)?06:39
craptalki got only 2 gig of RAM and Core 2 duo chip processor, which linux distro that running smooth on my machine?06:39

Sebastienbut  on my 1gb ram vps, i run a fresh and latest ubuntu, and it's running smooth06:41
FlannelMaxFrames: first, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes just so you're aware of any current release issues.  Then `update-manager -d` will run update-manager and have it look for the next LTS version before the .106:42
MaxFramesthanks06:42
Flanneltavi: yes, that'll work.  it's actually do-release-upgrade, but yes.06:42
tavithanks06:42
ducasseMaxFrames: take a backup first, that upgrade path is not ready yet.06:43
craptalkSebastien: lubuntu? is it good?06:43
Sebastiennever tried it06:43
MaxFramescraptalk: after a bit of fiddling, I set on lubuntu for my "legacy" machines06:44
craptalkSebastien: well, does ubuntu really can ressurect the old machines?06:44
MaxFramesI think it makes for a good compromise06:44
craptalkMaxFrames: does it run well?06:45
Sebastiencraptalk, yes.06:45
MaxFramescraptalk: I chose it... either I am a massochist, or it runs well.....06:45
craptalkMaxFrames: i was running windows and ubuntu 14.04, and none of it did well on mine06:45
MaxFramesubuntu is not aimed at the legacy machines, lubuntu uses lxde and is more suitable for those06:47

hitherehey there all, so dose anyone know why greay is crashing like a mother effer in ubuntu 16.04?07:17

iGenican i somehow get this system to allow me to write so i can recover my postgresql stuff, then i do a fresh install07:29
ducasseiGeni: not if the file systems won't mount. can you add another image file as a virtual disk and dump your stuff to that?07:30
iGenimm think i can, would that allow to write to that07:30
ducasseiGeni: thet should be seen as a fresh disk. create a file system on it, mount it and write to that.07:31
ducasseiGeni: that's the best idea i have.07:31

PaulePanterHi. My Web developer friend followed a random tutorial and changed permissions in `/usr/bin` to a normal user.08:05

PaulePanterPressing the keys on a Lenovo Thinkpad W541, the events are shown in `acpi_listen` and also there is a popup in Unity.08:06
PaulePanterThe only problem is, nothing changes and also the knob in the popup stays in the middle.08:07
MyrttiMoonBurst: without going into details, it was never meant to be a permanent solution, only for a 'presentation purposes' ie. temporary short term use. The way it installed stuff was a horrid kludge and it often became irrepairable with both Linux and Windows tools.08:07

heerlikHey everyone, I made a symlink so that when /bin/mysql is called it automatically passes the "-p" argument to make things easier, how can i tell the link to pass over additional arguments as well? thanks in advance10:12
Maoakik ok but still thank you a lot for your support :)10:12
akikMao: you can check "journalctl" and look for wlx10:12

brahmanMorning, upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04 using do-release-upgrade works fine. However I have noticed that my global environment variables set in /etc/environment are no longer available to the root user. I can confirm this is also the case on newly installed 14.04 servers, ie not upgraded from 12.04. Is /etc/environment no longer the correct file for global/system wide envronment variables in 14.04?10:48

lyzeShogoot, use forward slashes10:52
akikMao: and remove the 10-network.rules file as it didn't work10:53
lyzeOr a single slash.10:53
Maoakik where i must add the line "ln -s /dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules"10:54

brymducasse: that's right12:19
ducassebrym: and the share is already mounted?12:19
brymyep12:19

brymducasse: i've also gone ahead and created a dir in /media ready to mount -B, but that fails too. and i've already adduser'd my name to the libvirtd group. still no joy.12:21
ducassebrym: hmmm. why do you want to bind mount it?12:23
brymducasse: i'm sure i read somewhere that a bind would be better for storage pools. if it's not, i'm happy to look in other directions. i'd just really like to stop using up my primary hdd as i'm short on space.12:25
ducassebrym: say tha nes is mounted on /nasshare, there is no problem in storing the images there directly. libvirt doesn't care where they are as long as it has permissions.12:26

brymducasse: access denied by server :/12:41
Nicholas1brym what do u mean?12:41
ducassebrym: well, you need to allow your client access :)12:41
brymducasse: following the link you just sent me. though my ui doesn't look the same as that, i tried both with the server ip and name as host, and /sharename as source. i must be overlooking something really daft to keep tripped at the very first step lol12:42
brym*tripping12:42
brymNicholas1, you asked what makes a linux user, no?12:43
ducassebrym: the server (nas) needs to be configured to allow that client to mount the nfs share. i can't help you with that unless the nas is ubuntu-based.12:44
brymducasse: it's not. wish it was though. this would probably be alot smoother. i'll keep bashing away at it. i'm sure i'll get it in the end, or go mad trying lol12:44
ducassebrym: it probably has a setiing in the web ui, read the documentation if there is any. it should be easy.12:45
ducasse*setting12:46
brymducasse: yep, i've been alt-tabbing to it while we've been talking. i'll crack it, or it me. if i wanted to change the nas to ubuntu-based, i'd have nowhere to store the data already on there. and it's alot of data. sod's law, right.12:47
ducassebrym: typically for an nfs server, you just allow acces to your subnet - check your network settings for that. that's all i can help you with, i'm afraid :)12:50
brymducasse: another error, though this is actually progress. i used the literal host name i called the server, and the source input provided me some dropdown options. selected my chosen share, and: Error creating pool: Could not start storage pool: unsupported configuration: expected exactly 1 host for the storage pool12:52
brymducasse: same when i swap the literal host name for the ip :s12:53

OerHeksen1gmaa, during install, you get a choise where to put the bootloader, sda ( standard ) but you want it on the 4th drive.. that can be done. make sure you set your bios to the 4th hdd/ssd13:00
ducassebrym: you create a line in fstab that looks like this - 'server:/share /mountpoint nfs defaults,_netdev 0 0'13:00
en1gmaaOerHeks but when ubuntu does its updates it seems like when it auto updates it moves the bl to another drive13:01
OerHeksen1gmaa, never seen updates do that13:02
en1gmaaok. i gonna try and do an install but it seems like i always have problems and i just did a fresh install of windows and dont want to mess it up13:02
en1gmaai gonna try and do it. think i gonna disconnect my other drives though.13:03
ducassebrym: the nas/server *needs* to be configured to allow the client to mount that share first, though.13:04

TheSilentLinkhello how do you use the cat command to highlight words?13:06
ducassebrym: for clients?13:06
EriC^^TheSilentLink: what's your end goal?13:06
TheSilentLinkEriC^^: to highlight words in a text file13:06

EriC^^TheSilentLink: less /path/to/file13:07
EriC^^TheSilentLink: and type "/word" and it should highlight it, and n takes you to the next match13:07
lotuspsychjeHanumaan: added external ppa's?13:08
sda9Hi people. One question about Ubuntu's installation process. Why doesn't the installer ask if I want to send installation reports? Does it send them automatically? The Debian installer always asks13:08
TheSilentLinkEriC^^: /word followed my the word a want13:08
EriC^^no /wordyouwant13:08
Hanumaanlotuspsychje, yes but not sure which one is giving the problem ..13:08
TheSilentLinkEriC^^: o ok13:08
lotuspsychjeHanumaan: we dont support ppa's sorry, remove all non-official ones from your system13:09
brymducasse: yes, only able to add ip addresses to the  nfs permissions list13:09
lotuspsychje!ppapurge | Hanumaan13:09
ubottuHanumaan: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html13:09
ducassebrym: just enter the ip address of your client, and it should be fine. you probably want your client to have a static address, though.13:09
ducassebrym: you sure you cant use cidr syntax?13:10
TheSilentLinkEriC^^: thanks but it says I need to use cat: Use the cat command, suitably modified, to:13:10
TheSilentLink(i) show the contents of mynametextfile, with every occurrence of a particular word, chosen13:10
TheSilentLinkby you, highlighted13:10
EriC^^first thing you need to do is "man cat" then13:10
brymducasse: already added my ip. and not sure what that syntax is, so off to google :)13:10
cfhowlettiwhb4u, google has not released a Gdrive client13:11
ducassebrym: 192.168.0-0/24, for example, represents a subnet13:11
EriC^^TheSilentLink: are you supposed to use pipes?13:11
TheSilentLinkEriC^^:  it doesn't say...13:11
EriC^^TheSilentLink: i honestly dont think cat is capable of that alone13:12
EriC^^try ##linux13:12
brymducasse: you know, i think this may be where the problem lies. i'm on 192..., the nas is on 169. but virt-manager still sees it well enough to offer me the share name in the source drop down13:12
lotuspsychjeTheSilentLink: does your text allow syntax highlighting?13:12
EriC^^TheSilentLink: maybe they meant "grep" ?13:12
lotuspsychjeTheSilentLink: colortail or vim-gtk could help perhaps13:13
TheSilentLinklotuspsychje:  its just a txt file so idk13:13
ducassebrym: shouldn't matter, just give it the ip of your client.13:13
ducasseTheSilentLink: you need grep.13:13
brymi need a coffee lol13:13
TheSilentLinkducasse: I have grep installed13:13
ducasseTheSilentLink: yes, pipe the output through it with the right option.13:14
EriC^^TheSilentLink: if you want to do it with grep, then grep -E "^|word"13:14
EriC^^cat /file | grep -E "^|word" if you insist on using cat with it13:14
TheSilentLinkEriC^^: thanks13:15
EriC^^grep -E "^|word" /path/to/file would be nice and clean though13:15
EriC^^TheSilentLink: no problem13:16
TheSilentLinkEriC^^: yea but it says I need to use cat lol13:16
akikTheSilentLink: you can't highlight words with only cat13:17
TheSilentLinkakik: yea it says to modify it13:19
EriC^^it's still stupid13:19
EriC^^people get shot for doing cat | grep13:19

zykotick9EriC^^: "people get shot for doing cat | grep" <- that's a _little_ extreme isn't it?  ;)13:21

DaniKittencurlyears, because I want to feel the pure linux15:01
DaniKittenUnix, without GUI, but I want the network15:01
ducassebrym: that's probably the permissions problem i talked about earlier. can you create files inside the pool as your userid?15:01
curlyearsDanikitten:  just let it boot normally, and open a term session, pure cli15:01
auronandaceDaniKitten: why didn't you opt for the server version then?15:02
DaniKittenauronandace, Because I'm not a web server, just a home user who wants to go further15:02
curlyearsserver versions has sonme pretty strong restrictions on what it installs, default15:03
brymducasse: yeah, i can now create volumes in the new pool fine from virt-manager's storage tab, and during the process of creating a new vm. but it trips at the final step.15:03
auronandaceDaniKitten: there is also a mini version if you don't want any gui at all15:03
DaniKittenWell, would be a good idea to check it later :)15:03
curlyearsauronandace: or, she cab boot to the gui, open a term sesssion, and have a perfectly normal CLI session, with network services completely available15:04
DaniKittenThanks15:04
DaniKittenI'll change that grub file from "quiet splash" to "text"15:05

curlyearseverythiung involves 16.04.  rear panel USB ports failed.  Swapping to front paenel resolves issues, except a USB thuhmb drive inserted into one of the rear ports works correctly.  after resolving this, tried to reboot, with no success, got the "MoklistRT not found" error, got dropped to a "grub (rescue) " prompt.   Basically,15:18
ducassebrym: do you know what underlying file system the nas uses?15:19
brymducasse: i'll try and find out. i ssh'ed into it once, but that was ages ago...15:19
effectnetwhats this flash is not gonna be supported on linux?15:20
ducassebrym: i'm guessing you need to loosen up permissions on the nas side of things.15:20
sebsebsebeffectnet: Adobe15:20
sebsebsebeffectnet: Adobe have dropped support for their player, altough one version will have updates for a bit longer15:20
tgm4883effectnet: I thought it hasn't been supported in years15:20
curlyearsI used DVD to get to gparted, and disvcovered my '/' partitiuon had been remark3ed as "freee space" so I changed that, reaserting the "/" partition, and tried to boot into install mode.  Now it gives me the "MoklistRT" error after I select "install" from the TEXT menu  "Test run , Instaii, OEM install, check disc for error"15:20
effectnetoh15:21
sebsebsebeffectnet: however there are other ways that can have Flash15:21
tgm4883flash needs to die15:21
sebsebsebtgm4883: indeed15:21
curlyears<done>15:21
sebsebsebtgm4883: altough in some ways it's still better than alternatives or apparnatly hmm, but I think for video it  can die already :)15:21
lotuspsychjecurlyears: did you try what ducasse suggested you?15:22
curlyearsthere's a lot of content suppliers who still expect flash support in their clients15:22
curlyearsI didn't see what he suggested, I must hav ebeen too busy typing15:23
ducassecurlyears: disable secure boot.15:23
auronandacecurlyears: yet you caught the discussion on flash..15:23
Eldon1lol it is funny you are talking about flash as I'm wrestling with a flash microphone issue15:23

Eldon1Not a whole lot, working on my son's school lessons for the day but this recording issue is stumping me.15:24
sebsebsebtgm4883: that's what I mean, I don't think DRM can be done or as such or as easilly with HTML 5?15:25
ubottucurlyears: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI15:25
tgm4883sebsebseb: err, you might want to check with HBO and Netflix then15:25
curlyearslotuspsychje: went all through the eufi mess with k1l.  I have double checked, it is selected in my BIOS startup15:25
ducassecurlyears: should be a setting in your machines firmware, but it can be well hidden. look under security.15:25
Eldon1They have to read certain excerpts and record it on the virtual school's site. It worked the other day but yea, today is just a bugger :P15:25
tgm4883since both have DRM on their HTML5 content15:25
sebsebseboh15:25
lotuspsychjeEldon1: try chromium-browser + pepperflash or firefox + freshplayer15:26

lotuspsychjeBrAsS_mOnKeY: getting errors of any kind?15:36

kamal__Hi all15:47
ducassebrym: when you did what?15:47
brymducasse: but, success! the iso fired up and started installing. that was when it tanked.15:48
curlyearsthe only selection offered by my BIOS that is related to uefi is the opne that says it selectec legacy or efi drivers fo4 boot fropm a CD15:48
curlyearsit is set to efi15:48
BrAsS_mOnKeYty ducasse15:48
lotuspsychjecurlyears: try legacy15:48
brymducasse: i suspect because i have some underlying graphics issues; upgraded to 16.04 before .1 was released, so my card isn't yet supported.15:49
ducassebrym: odd. without an error message it's difficult to debug.15:49
lotuspsychjebrym: did you upgrade from wily?15:49
salty-horsehi. I recently upgraded to xenial. now dvd's won't automount, and syslog gives I/O errors. however, mounting manually works. where can I check the automount settings? which component is responsible for that? my first guess is it's trying to mount with the wrong filesystem15:49
curlyearslegacy doesn't work, went through that with k1l. We switched it to efi and fixed several problems unrelated to this one.15:49
ducassebrym: that could be it.15:50
BrAsS_mOnKeYducasse, not sure the difference between manual and auto.. I didnt manually install all of those! :)15:50
brymducasse: trusty. gonna spin it up again, but scale it, windowed this time. hopefully, it doesn't freak out15:50

ducasseBrAsS_mOnKeY: automatically installed packages are mostly dependencies of other packages.15:51

lotuspsychjebrym: perhaps test in a 16.04 liveusb?15:52

lfrlucasI want to restore to original packages of ubuntu server15:54
ducassecurlyears: is your pc certified for any windows version? if so, which?15:54

ranticHi everyone, with the introduction of ubuntu server 16.04, if I choose to setup a LAMP stack. What is the difference between install packages such as php, php-xml,php-gd and php7.0,php7.0-xml etc?16:16
EldonMcGuinnessvery true OerHeks, I'll shut up now :D16:16
ranticit appears the php package is already at php 7.x anyways16:16
BrAsS_mOnKeYtoo bad we can talk off topic D16:17
BrAsS_mOnKeY:D16:17
OerHeksrantic, more a Q for #ubuntu-server, or time to read the server docs16:17
EldonMcGuinnessill just there now16:17
daxBrAsS_mOnKeY: not here. This is support only.16:17
BrAsS_mOnKeY:D16:17
BrAsS_mOnKeYwe can't*16:17
OerHekshttps://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/16:17
daxrantic: php depends on the current-supported version of php, so php7.016:17
daxrantic: i.e., there's no effective difference16:17
k1lrantic: they are metapackages and link to the same. they were different when php7 was not the standard16:17
ranticOerHeks: Alright thanks16:17
ranticdax: So if I installed php7.0 right now ... even if Ubuntu moved to php8, I'd still be grabbing updates (until they stop) for 7?16:18
ranticdax: Where as if I use php packages, I'll at some point automatically be upgraded to 8?16:18
daxrantic: until Ubuntu stops packaging it, yes16:18
ice9sometimes I get notification about "important software updates available...."  however I'm disabling automatic check for updates, so what's going on?16:18
daxrantic: yes16:18
ranticdax: Ah OK thanks, that makes sense16:18
sebsebsebrantic: dax uhmm not so sure16:19
daxsebsebseb: that's nice16:19
sebsebsebrantic: dax I think PHP 7 would stay as that, only security updates if anything16:19
sebsebsebrantic: dax later version of Ubuntu PHP 816:19
lotuspsychjeice9: its how 16.04 notifies now16:19
daxsebsebseb: php7.0 will stay 7.0. php will not16:19
dax(which is what I just said)16:19
ice9lotuspsychje: so it force checking even if that option is disabled? that's abug16:20
daxunless you're talking about within releases, not between releases, which we're not16:20
lotuspsychjeice9: i dont think that would count as a bug, as the user is supposed to update at one time right16:20

k1lcurlyears: did you try to boot without the secureboot feature in bios? and in legacy mode?16:29
ducassecurlyears: if the mobo is certified for windows 7, 8 or 8.1, it is a *requirement* that secure boot can be disabled.16:29
curlyearslotuspsychje: I called my local hardware tech,  We d4termined that it was likely a flakey M/B leading to all these ofdd problems.  It'd cosrt $60 for them to run an overnight diagnostic on it, and that's almmost the cost of a neww M/B16:30

So I installed the latest drivers (15.302) from AMD site but now I can't login, the whole screen it's filled with distortion, even in other tty's can't see a thing, I am in Failsafemode right now and it works fine, the thing is I don't want to enter GRUB everytime to login, is there a way to login directly to Failsafe mode in every boot?19:02
k1lno19:02

thinkyshould i install gksu first?19:03
thinkythx kiki119:03
fundiessudo su if dont have root password19:03
thinkyk1l:19:03
k1ljust preface the command you want to run with sudo. that will make that command run as root. but dont run everything as root19:03
thinkyok19:03
k1lfundies: that is bad advise. ubuntu uses sudo. if you want a root shell use sudo -i19:04
rhorseI created a root account, makes life easier....19:04
fundiesk1l, its not advice its the corect answer to his question19:04
k1lrhorse: you are free to do that. but that is not the ubuntu way. ubuntu is build to not use the root account.19:04
PaulePanterHi. How does Unity handle the laptop screen backlight?19:04
k1lfundies: no, it isnt the correct answer in #ubuntu19:05
thinkyhmm19:05
fundiesk1l, yes it is19:05
k1l!sudo | fundies19:05
ubottufundies: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !pkexec (for older releases: !gksu and !kdesudo). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo19:05
rhorseI know, k1l but Ubuntu is linux, and the 'linux way' can and does often include a root account. YMMV.19:05
PaulePanterDoes it use D-Bus?19:05
fundiesk1l, i know what sudo is19:05
zykotick9fundies: i'm sorry, but "sudo su" is a BAD answer for any distro...19:05
Term1nalyou're more than welcome to use the root account19:06
Term1nalbut you're inviting problems by doing so.19:06
fundiesk1l, ive prolly been using linux far longer than you19:06
Term1nalBy all means, go ahead and root your way to victory.19:06
rhorseI've never had a problem in 12 years of using linux with a root account.19:06
k1lfundies: you try to make it personal. dont do that. you gave a wrong answer. i provided the technical correct answer.19:06
Term1nalIf you're smart and don't run untrusted scripts and applications as root, sure, you can get away with it.19:06
fundiesk1l, zykotick9, its how you get a shell as root.19:06
fundiesthats the correct answer19:07
Term1nalBut to tell others that such is a good way of doing things is irresponsible.19:07
zykotick9fundies: NO.  it's not.19:07
thinkyi was trying to add an icon on launcher19:07
fundiesif he asked how to run x as elevated user19:07
thinkybut now it happened empty space between launcher icons :S19:07
fundiesthen sudo would be correct19:07
k1lrhorse: this is ubuntu specific. i know that other distros use that differently. but ubuntu is build around a non-login root account.19:07
thinkyhow can i get rid of that empty space?19:07
k1lfundies: you are wrong. sudo su sets some wrong enviroment variables. which is solved with using sudo -i.19:08
rhorseI know, k1l but I prefer the freedom to do things differently....YMMV19:08
Term1nalI drop to interactive root shell via sudo -s and have my bash prompt change to red19:08
fundiesif ubuntu breaks sudo su. its even shittier than I remembered19:09
fundies speaking of how shitty ubuntu is...19:09
akikfundies: the correct syntax is "sudo su -"19:09
fundieshas anyone ever run a successful upgrade19:09
zykotick9fundies: "sudo su" NEVER makes sense...  with ANY distro.19:09
daxfundies: this isn't Ubuntu-specific behavior. sudo su is affected by the environment of the non-root user running it. sudo -i is not. This is all in sudo and su documentation.19:09

GnomeKristwo things. First, I've just had to reset cmos for the second time...This is beginning to show a trend, any ideas? Two. Why the heck did my workspace switcher hotkeys stop working after running compiz in terminal the other day? Will they start working again if I purge compiz?19:10
GnomeKrisAs long as gdm is in charge of display management, compiz is completely unnecessary right?19:11
fundiesWhen  called  without  arguments, su defaults to running an interactive19:12
fundies       shell as root.19:12
k1lGnomeKris: gdm and compiz do different things19:12
fundieswow almost word for word what i said19:12
k1lfundies: you are missing the point that got explained  to you twice.19:12
GnomeKrisk1l, but is compiz required in this particular situation?19:12
zykotick9fundies: BUT, putting "sudo" infront of "su" is silly/wrong/incorrectly...19:12
fundiesk1l, you're missing the point19:13
k1lGnomeKris: no. its not needed for the login screen.19:13
fundiesanyways this isnt getting me anywhere19:13
daxfundies: in #ubuntu, we recommend sudo -i. If you dislike that, you are free to not provide sudo support here. But this argument is tedious and not going anywhere, so let's drop it.19:13
fundiesapparently noone here knows how to fix ubuntu19:13
freajGnomeKris: you don't need compiz to make gdm work19:13
fundiesill leave19:14
freajGnomeKris: *however* please keep compiz unless you *really* know what you're doing19:14
GnomeKrisfreaj, what does compiz control that I need it for? Because I'm thinking that the only way to get my hotkeys back is to purge it.19:14
GnomeKrisAfter running it the other day, the hotkeys stopped working.19:15
freajGnomeKris: are you using unity?19:15
k1lgdm means he is using gnome shell19:15
GnomeKrisfreaj, Ubuntu Gnome 14.04...so no, I'm pretty sure I'm not *actively* using unity19:16
daxGnomeKris: you don't need compiz.19:16
freajGnomeKris: then you don't need compiz :-)19:16
freajdax: heh!19:16

GnomeKrisdax, so removing compiz and unity have no affect on how gnome displays?19:19

GnomeKriscool, cause that's all I use is the gnome session...I don't even run the gnome classic session. Just the default19:20

GnomeKrisalso, just apt-get remove? or purge?19:21
daxGnomeKris: remove removes the actual program files, purge removes any configuration files in /etc and similar19:22
daxGnomeKris: so if you're not going to use them again, may as well purge19:22
GnomeKrispurge it is then, thanks dax19:23

rp2CaffeineAddict, maybe you can use a filesystem watch utility20:11

joshuaebbymatheLet me try that20:11
fedoenjoshuaebbymathe: what do you have as default on route command?20:11
Bashing-omthinky_: Yes; google-chrome is safe . just their error checking/security for updates is weaker than ubuntu - in 16.04 - is comfortable with .20:11
daxCaffeineAddict: (which is equivalent to -f --retry, and --retry does "keep trying to open a file if it is inaccessible")20:11

olmarifedoen, joshuaebbymathe: well MTU is still "only" the max... even if switch can do MTU 9000, it does not mean all lcient's have to20:29

fedoenback to my question: bluetooth headset on 16.04?20:55
nacc_fedoen: that's not a question? :) what's the issue?20:57
fedoennacc_:  need step by step guidance actually, I've tried everything I could find or imagine20:58
nacc_fedoen: let me see if my bluetooth headset is charged20:58
fedoennacc_: had them working, after reboot they sometimes connect, sometimes they don't20:58
fedoennacc_: I removed all I could find bluetooth related and reinstalled blueman and pulseaudio-module-bluetooth, they worked, but I had to take out the dongle and plug back in to get a connection, now that doesn't work anymore21:00
fedoennacc_: sometimes I get sound but it breaks out...21:00
nacc_fedoen: hrm, yeah, i got sound for a few seconds and then it switched back to my laptop's speakers, and i see a bit of a flood of hci0 errors in dmesg21:02
fedoennacc_: thanks for confirming, I thought it's just my setup21:03
nacc_fedoen: i've often had the issue of having to remove my headset before every pairing (in 15.10 and earlier)21:03
fedoennacc_: I got it working eventually on 15.10 and never needed setup again, had some trouble there too, but after the first successful connection everytime it connected without trouble21:04
nacc_fedoen: yeah, that's roughly my experience, i guess i haven't tried in 16.04 since updating21:05
fedoennacc_: after upgrade to 16.04 - only troubles21:05
nacc_fedoen: i end up using the headphone jack and built-in mic21:05
nacc_fedoen: testing again to make sure it's reproducible21:05

nacc_fedoen: well, i'm using my bluetooth headset right now, so that much is different21:07

fedoenand no you can't21:13
fedoenat least for me it breaks21:13
orlocklewis1711: client vs daemon21:13
daxlewis1711: ssh_config is for the ssh client, not a service. sshd_config is for the server21:13
nacc_fedoen: will try21:13
daxlewis1711: if you're missing the latter, you probably don't have openssh-server installed21:13
fedoennacc_: if it works I get back too gnome bluetooth :)21:14
lewis1711dax: right. I am trying to clone a git repository through ssh. so I need the daemon?21:14
nacc_fedoen: trying to figure out how to get gnome sound daemon to let me force it to a2dp, it keeps going back21:14
nacc_lewis1711: no, you only need the daemon to give access ssh to your machine to others21:14
daxlewis1711: no, what you have should be fine for that21:15
lewis1711huh. I am trying to add "AllowUsers git" but I am constantly told it's a bad configuration otpion21:15
orlocklewis1711: do you host the git repository too?21:15
orlockrather than cloning one elsewhere?21:15
lewis1711orlock: no, it's hosted on the machine I am trying to ssh into21:15
fedoennacc_: tho my experience got me trough using blueman which lets you connect to audiosink on headset and select A2DP sink as audio profile21:15
jayjo_WHere can i edit the location of my meta key? The system prefernces > keyboard option doesn't have anything available to adjust21:16
nacc_lewis1711: you should just be doing `git clone git+ssh://...` right?21:16
daxlewis1711: AllwUsers is something one would configure on the computer you're hosting the repository with, not the computer you're cloning on21:16
daxAllowUsers*21:16
orlocklewis1711: well whoever runs that machine will be wanting to install ssh - Or, just use git21:16
lewis1711nacc_: correct21:16
lewis1711dax: ah!!! right21:16
nacc_lewis1711: then "AllowUsers" is not relevant21:16
fedoennacc_: sometimes I could select A2DP only from pavucontrol (pulse audio volume controller)21:16
nacc_lewis1711: just run the `git-clone` :)21:17
nacc_fedoen: let me try that21:17

borisetoI'm using Ubuntu 16.04 on a Lenovo laptop and can't suspend it to ram at all. It just gets stuck to black screen and the fans start getting really loud. It was just fine with 14.04. Any ideas?22:22
psauxi desire to know, how can i install my intel drivers for run dota 2.22:22
R0binh00dboriseto, do you have nVidia graphics?>22:22
Mir_Poweredgeboriseto, i know your issue well22:23
borisetoR0binh00d, nope, Intel+AMD22:23
Mir_Poweredgeboriseto, it could be Nvidia drivers or it could be an issue with plymouth22:23
borisetoMir_Poweredge, is it a common issue with this release or..? Is there some info somewhere?22:23
psauxit's saying that my graphic must suport at least opengl v3.122:23

Mir_Poweredgei am having loads of issues wi5th 16.0422:25
ratraceboriseto: 16.04 dropped support for the proprietary radeon iirc22:25
borisetoMir_Poweredge, me too, to the point that I'm going back to the 14.04 release.22:25
Mir_Poweredgethat is true but shouldnt be an issue as MESA is better than the blob from AMD22:26
borisetoratrace, yeah, not using fglrx, but radeon driver instead (and waiting for the AMDGPU update)22:26
Mir_Poweredgemuch more stable imho22:26
ratraceall I know, and this has been like forever, Linux + Radeon = Pain.22:26
borisetoMir_Poweredge, true, I'm actually surprised how better the radeon (mesa) driver is.22:26
ratraceif you wanna run Linux, make sure it's intel or nvidia graphics.22:26
