[00:00] isoboot is only possible with an existing grub [00:00] Just bear in mind that, in order to keep your /home, your best bet may be just to back up your /home files manually [00:00] OerHeks: I have that :) I'm on a Ubuntu 14.04 now. Will it keep my boot entries safe? [00:01] semitones-reinst: Honestly, last time I attempted a ISOboot install, I was not able to fugure out a "good" means to unmount the present root partition . [00:03] depends, what you do. it could be handy to use as a live iso, as backup to restore your original zfs ubuntu install from snapshot [00:03] What does 'the system' refer to here? If stored on a partition with a different format than the system, the filesystem's module (ntfs, reiserfs, etc) may need to be included in the menuentry for GRUB to be able to access the file. [00:05] in dummie language, if you don't use fat32, .. [00:05] semitones-reinst, whatever system is in use [00:05] bazhang: grub2? [00:05] no, the iso [00:06] semitones-reinst, if its ubuntu, then whatever system is IN USE === dirty_deeds is now known as bazheng [00:06] lol [00:08] bazhang: so when grub boots the iso, it cares about what filesystem my current ubuntu has, and wants to make sure that the iso is the same filesystem as the current ubuntu? That doesn'tseem to make sense... [00:09] bazhang: because right now, my /boot is on ext2, and my / is ext4 [00:10] hi. I have an issue that I have been debugging for a while now. I have an embedded system connected to my host machine (running ubuntu 16.04 LTS). The embedded system is running linux as well. [00:11] this is my rules file [00:11] http://gpaste.us/78b95084 [00:11] when the embedded system boots up, I am able to see the output on my host machine. When I try to write to the console of the embedded system, I does not show on the console [00:13] I am added to the dialout group and I changed my rule file to disable modem manager to access the devices. to [00:13] I also set the necessary permissions [00:13] however, I am uncertain why the console does not accept my input [00:15] meh: I went through your rule file. Is there something in particular I need to look for? [00:16] vinny, redirection issues? [00:17] hm... [00:17] I also checked using wireshark, the port is sending packets when I type to the console [00:18] I did not verify the contents of the packet however (e.g. if they are valid) [00:19] hey all! so I'm currently running 15.04 and I figure I should start doing a better job of running an up to date system. what is the best way to bring my machine up to the current release (preferably without having to do a fresh install)? thanks! [00:19] danmulvey: EOL upgrade to 15.10, then upgrade again to 16.04 [00:19] Hi, I am trying to figure out how to save space on my HD. .encrypt is taking a lot of space as well as another folder: http://imgur.com/07wLMZK [00:19] hey, i got a problem, under ubuntu 16.04 i can't read some dvds, can't see them listed in /dev or in my file explorer neither can't vlc play it, tried to install codecs and still no go :( [00:20] Can somebody help me with this? [00:20] the specific dvd is batman the dark knight [00:20] elefanto: if it's encrypted I read that you need to install a package in 16.04 [00:21] bazheng: any ideas? [00:21] Ben64: cool thanks, i wasnt sure if i needed to do it that way or if i could just jump over the in between releases. gonna give it a shot once I get done at work, thanks again! [00:22] @vinny i installed libdvd-pkg, it still doesn't work [00:22] vinny, it looks like redirection issues (ie the stdout of the guest may be set to you host) - but Im not 100% sure [00:23] bazheng: how can I verify this? [00:23] elefanto: I think that's the default dvd package. [00:24] metroins: Pastebin the terminal command outputs of ' df -h ' and change directoty to '/', 'cd /' amd post ' sudo du -sx * | sort -n ' . [00:24] vinny, the invisible stuff you type on console: youre refering to the console from host? [00:24] do i need more, if so, do you maybe know which packages? :D [00:25] elefanto, can you mount the DVD and watch the videos from files on the video folder? [00:26] elefanto: there are restricted-extras I think [00:26] @bazheng no, i can't [00:27] Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/xv5AdMp3 [00:27] bazheng: when I type to the console from my host, this console is connected to the embedded system, the console does not receive any input from my host [00:27] but the console display the output from the embedded system. [00:27] elefanto, so its more likely to be a media issue... [00:27] imho [00:28] vinny, ok.... thats pretty sticky :) [00:28] don't know i'll try some other dvds, but that exact same disc worked on my dvd player [00:28] lol [00:29] lol [00:29] bazheng: any ideas? [00:30] vinny, whats the term? I would try messing w/ term options (echos and redirection).. [00:30] I''m using kermit [00:30] vinny, canonical non canonical inputs, and so on - dunno kermit [00:30] bazheng: what do you use? [00:31] and is there an echo/redirection option? [00:31] I also tried minicom. [00:31] vinny Im rxvt [00:31] but minicom is built on kermit... so... [00:32] vinny a "kemit --help" may do [00:32] vinny: if you're graphical, also try cutecom. It has some more easily accessible options than minicom [00:32] alright tried another dvd and it worked so it seems like a media issue, thnk all of you guys, kudos and best of all vibes to you [00:33] ok I will try cutecom [00:33] and rxvt [00:34] I'll post my resutls [00:34] results [00:34] cya guys [00:35] metroins: /boot, /var, and /hime are large . run ' sudo apt-get autoclean ; sudo apt-get autoremove ; sudo apt-get clean ' . then let's see how much space is freed up by running the df and du commands again . === doodofcoffee is now known as coffeecup [00:38] Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/T6AEwt6b [00:39] after [00:39] i replaced the original changelog with ubuntu's chromium changelog [00:39] metroins: look'n again .

[01:54] user__: that's a really bad idea [01:54] but I need some solution [01:54] I did post on ask ubunu no reply from any [01:54] Bashing-om: Right. But first we have to get him logged into the TTY so he can run the Live image again. [01:55] okay so I have a directory and I want to delete it but its full of a bunch of other empty directories [01:55] except when I rm -r it says "Directory not empty" [01:55] I'm hoping it was a live image.. I wrote the iso to my 4gb cruzr blade with "universal usb installer". has worked fine that way for linux mint [01:55] for every directory inside [01:55] even though they are all empty [01:55] any ideas?

[02:04] nealshirelaptop: it tries to fix simple errors . If you can not login on TTY1, try and boot a recovery kernel ' there is an option on this menu to repair the system .

[02:10] metroins: and .. it removes now a whole bunch of old kernels ? [02:11] gezellig: Just curious, but, Are you inside the directory when you are trying to delete it? [02:11] I tried to make a "Qt Quick Controls application" in Qt Creator, and "qmlplugindump" crashed [02:11] Bashing-om: Nope. still nada. [02:11] Hi all. 16.04 having trouble with file associations. blender, official repo install. Can see in blender.desktop that exec is set to blender %f but it doesn't show up in nautilus default application list. defaults.list is also missing any reference to blender. should i just add it there? if so, how? [02:12] krismatrix: a command has switches , think of those switches as options that operate on the command . [02:12] gezellig: I know it sounds crazy, but I have actually done it. [02:12] HI Who can help with canon LBP printer problem? after installing the captstatusui -P LBP2900 sat communication problem [02:13] Bashing-om: You are using both command and option to refer to commands...this is the thing that I find confusing.... [02:13] here...let me share an example. [02:13] gpg [--homedir dir] [--options file] [options] command [args] [02:13] sorry I had to restart. I'm back now [02:13] In this example...there are options AND command...which I assume are different things. [02:13] I am trying to understand the difference between these two. [02:14] metroins: Though we can invoke the package manager to remove the kernels . I would like to learn why 'autoremove' is not working . does 'ls -al /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal ' exist ? [02:14] Bashing-om: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2824 Apr 10 2014 /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal [02:16] okay so hypothetical folder name music [02:16] rm -r ./music [02:16] rm -fr music [02:17] what else should I try [02:19] gezellig: Please padtebin the contents of /proc/mounts. [02:20] krismatrix: in this context an option modifies how the command is performed. The command is the function which the program should execute [02:21] i have a small issue with a compilation [02:21] the rules file causes an error [02:21] krismatrix: for example, the program apt-get can perform several actions: update, upgrade, install, etc [02:21] https://paste.ubuntu.com/16401366/ [02:21] ok.. [02:21] and the strange result [02:21] https://paste.ubuntu.com/16401360/ [02:21] krismatrix: so 'apt-get -y install build-essential' [02:22] so..apt-get is a command...and update...upgrade are options? [02:22] krismatrix: install is the command [02:22] apt-get is the program [02:22] I always thought that options are the one that start with a "-" or "--" [02:22] not necessarily [02:22] ac1dh0n3ycl0ud: NEVER INSTRUCT ANYONE TO USE THE -y SWITCH WITH apt-get ! [02:22] sonnikkuamerica: I didn't [02:22] how i install frebsd in my pc? [02:22] krismatrix: so 'apt-get -y install build-essential' << you didn't? [02:23] gtkm90, this is ubuntu not bsd support. wrong channel. [02:23] Well, adding "application/blend=blender.desktop" in defualts.list didn't seem to work either [02:23] gtkm90: #freebsd could help you with that. [02:23] SonikkuAmerica: No, I didn't. I used this as an example of a command line option [02:23] ac1dh0n3ycl0ud: Oh. [02:23] Carry on. [02:23] But keep that in mind :) [02:24] SonikkuAmerica: Sure. [02:24] Although I use -y *all* the time :P [02:24] I like to live dangerously.... [02:24] ok.. [02:24] i want to join in group bsd, what i to do ? [02:24] krismatrix: So the 'command' in this context is the operation which you're instructing the program to carry out [02:25] ok... [02:25] so let's says I am doing the following. [02:25] gpg --export --armor 12345678 > funny.asc [02:25] which would be the option...program and command? if they are all there. [02:26] The program is gpg. Sometimes this is referred to as a command because a 'program' can be a 'command' [02:26] The options are --armor 12345678 [02:26] is ls a command or program? [02:27] metroins: Think this is what you have ; see : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels#Automatic_Maintenance . [02:27] krismatrix: [ ls ] is a binary executable [02:27] and the command is 'export' because the program is being told to do an export [02:27] Greetings, fellow Ubuntites! In an attempt to learn Qt Creator, I am following a tutorial where I make a "Qt Quick Controls Application". When I attempt to do so, the project creates with many qml errors, including "qmlplugindump crashed" [02:27] ls is a program [02:27] dreamaddict: join #qt [02:27] dreamaddict: ask them, they're nice [02:27] ahh ok, it was erroring on Ubuntu components [02:28] wasn't sure where the line is on this one, thank you [02:28] dreamaddict: they're just more likely to know the answer from what I can tell [02:28] again, thank you :) [02:28] :) [02:28] Bashing-om: that would make sense, I don't know which ones to remove manually though. [02:29] https://github.com/lagbox/asklagbox/issues/1 O_O? [02:29] anyone have any idea when i install blender from the official repositories the file associations don't work? Have tried many online fixes for the same problem when you install from blenders website but no joy. [02:29] krismatrix: that's just the semantics used by the man pages in general. You can say that 'ls' is a command because it is something you can tell the computer to do === JanC is now known as Guest71745 === JanC_ is now known as JanC [02:29] snowie, installed from the blender site? why? It's in the repos. [02:30] Wrong chat [02:30] ops [02:30] krismatrix: you can also say that all 'commands' given as arguments to a program are options... [02:30] hi. FYI -- my network manager just died due to the latest update on 14.04. For some reason my libnl was 'upgraded' to libnl-3.2.21-ubuntu1. This caused network manager to crash after reboot. trusty-proposed was NOT turned on [02:30] snowie, more to the point, does it work? launch from command line [02:30] I have installed blender from the official ubuntu repos, but the file associations are missint [02:30] i managed to 'downgrade' mylibnl. but not sure why a buggy release of libnl was in main depository [02:30] ok...i guess what I am trying to understand is, the order of syntax that I should be doing. [02:30] ie, when i double click a .blend file, it searches for a program. If i right click and choose open with, blender is not in the list of applications. [02:30] For example...gpg has the syntax format: [02:30] gpg [--homedir dir] [--options file] [options] command [args] [02:31] now it appears to do different things when I do: [02:31] gpg --export 12345678 --armor > funny.asc [02:31] versus [02:31] blender does appear when i search in the dash [02:31] gpg --export --armor 12345678 > funny,asc [02:31] snowie, right click on the .blend, go into properties and set the "open with" option to blender [02:31] typo funny,asc is funny.asc [02:31] ie, when i double click a .blend file, it searches for a program. If i right click and choose open with, blender is not in the list of applications. [02:32] cfhowlett: it's not in the list, i think that's the gap. [02:33] snowie, open with "other applications" [02:33] krismatrix: The order will vary depending on the program. A lot of times it doesn't matter--for example I can use 'apt-get -y install ' and 'apt-get install -y ' interchangably [02:34] cfhowlett: yes, in that list, i see everything from libreoffice ot openjdk, but no blender [02:34] snowie, does blender start from the command line? [02:34] ok. [02:35] So basically...try a few different version until it works? [02:35] yep, $ blender works perfectly [02:35] That was not what I was hoping to hear...but ok. [02:35] snowie, bad loop. I can only suggest purging blender then reinstalling [02:35] krismatrix: the man page says 'Commands are not distinguished from options except for the fact that only one command is allowed.' [02:36] cfhowlett: yep, uninstall, restart, reinstall even, no dice. [02:36] krismatrix: '...option as well as command parsing stops as soon as a non-option is encountered' [02:36] hmm... [02:37] krismatrix: so I'm guessing '12345678 --armor' doesn't give you ascii-armored output? [02:37] so that is saying that I should have all options FIRST before writing anything that is not an option. [02:37] In other words: [02:37] cfhowlett: wait, apt purge is different right? let me try that. brb [02:37] gpg --export --armor 12345678 > funny.asc is the correct version [02:37] where everythign after armor is a non-option. [02:37] it is indeed different. sudo apt-get purge blender [02:37] krismatrix: exactly. [02:38] krismatrix: although [02:38] I believe that --export is a command [02:39] it's listed under the commands section of the man page... so I'd --armor --export 12345678 [02:40] But sometimes the best way to figure out the right way is, in fact, experimentation [02:40] GPG has a rather confusing and ambiguous man page... [02:41] But you'd probably have good luck researching the correct usage via a well-formed google search [02:41] cfhowlett: still no luck. [02:43] snowie, you are on 16.04? [02:43] i do google. But people criticize me for doing things without understanding what they do...so I am making an effort. [02:43] krismatrix, holy ... ! that is the smartest statement I have seen anyone make here in a LONG while! [02:43] Well that's fair criticism, I suppose but either way you're learning. [02:43] cfhowlett: yep. one sec, i think i may have it. [02:44] Right. [02:44] poor user_ couldn't get anyone to remote into their machine and fix their problem for them.... [02:45] I should've recommended buying into RHL [02:45] Or I could've rooted their box, I guess... [02:46] cfhowlett: ok, so i have edited defaults.list and now i get a different error at least. [02:46] metroins: Sorry, way from the keyboard. .. in the file " /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades ' is the line - //Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies "false"; - as directed, remove the comment characters '//' and change flase to true . save the file . we must 1st execute the terminal command ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades ' . See the Automatic Maintenance section of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentat [02:46] snowie, I have to step out. You might want to check with Blender support. [02:47] Hi all. the answer was to add the application to defaults.list "application/x-blender=blender.desktop". where does this bug reside, apt? ubuntu? [02:53] snowie: Not sure, but [ xdg-mime default blender.desktop application/x-blender ] should fix it :) [02:55] Bashing-om: Thank you for your help; I will follow the steps in a minute [02:55] SonikkuAmerica: yeah. just surprised it's not there and would like to log it. if i log it under ubuntu they can close etc i guess. [02:56] They might notice... [03:02] metroins: K .. still researching . we also need to look at ' /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove ' . [03:03] Bashing-om: I have followed the steps and edited 50unattended-upgrades to true. Do I need to run a command after I've edited the file? The steps say: Thereafter, system should remove old automatically installed kernels and packages associated to them - automatically. It does not purge then, however. [03:04] metroins: hreat . see my last .. and have you also run terminal command ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades ' . [03:05] Bashing-om: I followed that step as well [03:05] Which version of ubuntu added python 3? [03:06] metroins: Good . then ' cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove ' let's make sure the kernels are not included in that list .

[03:44] abhishek, after i plugged it into a hardline, i went to the proprietary drivers list and installed the one that was listed. [03:45] thunderkey, yes I can plug a cable!

How can I make it do so in ubuntu. [05:41] I wonder if there is a work around for this [05:42] I am referring to dropbox here^ [05:42] Also, why does Ubuntu just incrypt the home directory vs the hold HD??? [05:42] I"m really confused by that [05:43] fourcolors: if there is, then it would involve storing your profile picture outside your home directory [05:44] any suggestions?

The thing that really irked me about apt is the lack of docs for it [05:58] I remember going through the source to try and work out the commands it can take [05:59] that was a fun afternoon [05:59] brushdemon: yes it came with 1.1 and 1.2 [05:59] ah [05:59] well, time to update my system by the looks of it [05:59] no auto update? [06:00] I prefer to do it manually [06:00] i personally never upgrade my system, i do a reinstall, its faster and less problematic [06:01] ah, well some of my systems are servers which I kinda can't just "wipe the slate clean" [06:01] you need VMs bro [06:01] or docker [06:01] I do have vm's... you're suggesting to take down a hypervisor to upgrade? [06:02] oh you're using ubuntu as your hypervisor? [06:02] ofc, it's the best linux-based OS for hypervisor usage [06:03] in my opinion at least [06:03] can't you swing the VMs to another hypervisor? [06:03] usually I do when I upgrade [06:03] the thing is, I've never really had an issue on the hypervisor during an upgrade [06:04] just reroute and all the usual migration stuff, upgrade, reboot once and quickly check it out [06:04] yeah same here, but i'm using vmware for all my hypervisors [06:04] that's suse based from what I remember, right? [06:04] well part of it's suse based [06:05] maybe originally, but not in recent versions [06:05] hmm, that's kind of interesting.

[06:55] <[Saint]> And you supplied no context for that, so... [06:56] [Saint]: it would of been enough for me [06:57] <[Saint]> goddard: not if I'm on a 6 year old version of Ubuntu, for instance. [06:58] hi guys! [06:58] <[Saint]> just trying to point out why "someone post their default groups" soesn;t really work. [06:58] I am stuck on these 2 issues. http://codepad.org/hGEXCN7A [06:58] [Saint]: it would of worked [06:58] [Saint]: some people just wanna be difficult... either way thanks [06:59] <[Saint]> I am including you as one of those people, I guess. [06:59] <[Saint]> You didn't even so much as say what Ubuntu version you were on. [06:59] OK you two, I think that's probably enough [07:00] this is why i hate the ubuntu chat [07:01] goddard: Don't demand things. State your issue and wait for help. [Saint], it was an easy enough request that we could have just done it. I'm doubtful that the groups have changed that much and in any case no need to press this further [07:03] how do i find out what version of ubuntu im using? [07:04] <[Saint]> tgm4883: I thought it was infinitely better to retrieve them from the environment instead of trying to patchwork it out from anyone else's environment or have me (or anyone else) go through and figure out what was a default group and what I (or they) had created. [07:04] hadleigh: lsb_release -a [07:04] or... just google I guess. [07:04] <[Saint]> You're right it was an easy request, I just don't think it would've necessarily provided a useful answer given various factors. [07:05] any suggestions guys? [07:05] sentionics: thank you [07:05] Hi. Do you know, unique applications on ubuntu? [07:06] does anyone know how to find where an application installed its actually executable? I'm looking for my clion executable so I can run it as a super user to update but I'm not sure how to find it/which one it is/ I did locate -b clion [07:06] Hi, new to linux. I did a minimal install to get to know the system better. It seems I can't connect to my NAS. when I try to smb in nautilus it says "This file server type is not recognized" [07:07] answer me [07:07] wow [07:07] Cheeks132 do the which or where commands not do the job? e.g. where [07:08] roni: first, patience. Second, write a coherent question [07:08] which doesn't find anything and I dont have where, should i install ghwhere? [07:08] Cheeks132: "which clion" shold do it [07:08] my question, Hi. Do you know, unique applications on ubuntu [07:09] <[Saint]> phucktank: is gvfs present? [07:09] phucktank: you probably are missing the cifs utilities, I think cifs-utils is the package [07:09] roni: that makes no sense [07:09] [Saint] yes [07:09] tgm4883 let me check [07:10] Cheeks132 apparently the command is actually 'whereis' [07:10] abhishek: you're better off picking one of those questions at a time and asking it in here rather than linking to a paste of your question. People idle in here and can't always click links to read your questions [07:10] it just gives me back clion: [07:10] like it didnt find anything [07:11] when i do whereis gdb it finds that just fine [07:11] tgm4883 I installed that package and no change. Does it require a restart? [07:11] Cheeks132: how do you launch it? [07:11] tgm4883, thanks for the suggestion!

[07:41] the software works on 14.04 [07:41] MiSiFU: WHICH software? [07:42] its "ShouthIRC BOT", a bot to manage IRC Radios Channels [07:42] ShoutIRC BOT [07:42] MiSiFU: Whats a radio channel, in IRC? :) [07:42] a new one in other network [07:43] the users can request songs.... vote for songs.... [07:43] and other things [07:45] force mount and format uninitialized hard disk anyone?.. [07:46] CY_Genre: You cannot mount an unformated disk. [07:46] CY_Genre: You need to create a partition/logical volume, and a filesystem first. [07:46] well i can't format it either [07:46] then... there is no solution? [07:46] le sigh [07:46] CY_Genre: Why not? [07:46] thats what im trying to figure out [07:47] it's uninitialized, not mounted, can't force mount it either [07:47] but i can still see it [07:47] CY_Genre: Why cant you create partition, etc.? [07:47] again... this is what im trying to figure out [07:48] CY_Genre: you should be getting an error message when some operation fails. [07:48] CY_Genre: How are you trying to partition? [07:48] one sec... [07:48] CY_Genre: you mount partitions, you don't mount unused disk space [07:49] you dont mount partitions, you mount filesystems. [07:49] lol [07:49] bekks, Error wiping device: Command-line `wipefs -a "/dev/sdb"' exited with non-zero exit status 1: wipefs: error: /dev/sdb: probing initialization failed: No such device or address [07:49] (udisks-error-quark, 0 [07:50] maybe it's a bit late and im not wording this correctly, sorry [07:50] but that is what im having trouble doing for some reason [07:50] CY_Genre: are you sure your device is /dev/sdb? [07:51] auronandace, yes, im sure [07:51] auronandace, im sure that's it's also no unused space [07:51] it's full of data [07:54] CY_Genre: "wipefs" is NOT partitioning a drive. [07:54] CY_Genre: Partition it. [07:54] I'm going to buy system which is wrote in java lang. One of sellers want to give me source code of it, but it is more expensive that without it. Is it worth to pay for source code ? [07:55] lolwut [07:55] gggt: How do we know it, without knowing the product. [07:55] i don't want to partition it, i just want to format the entire thing is all, i can partition it later. if i can't format it then how am i supposed to partition it afterthefact?.. [07:55] CY_Genre: Formatting means: "create a filesystem". [07:56] CY_Genre: you partition first. [07:56] ^ [07:56] trial and error then [07:56] use fdisk to partition, then use your mkfs tool or whatever to make a filesystem [07:56] CY_Genre: No. Reading what people tell you. [07:56] CY_Genre: Create a partition, create a filesystem. [07:56] obviously [07:57] but yeah, i'll try this real quick [07:57] CY_Genre: Hopefully you have a backup of that disk. [07:57] ^lol [07:57] I bet he doesn't [07:57] No one ever does [07:57] Otherwise the data isnt worth to be kept. [07:57] not necessary [07:58] it's not worth keeping to begin with [07:59] permission denied [08:00] When doing what? [08:01] Are you running as the proper user [08:01] CY_Genre: You need to be clear, and provide more details, since we cant guess what you are doing, and crystal balls dont work until tuesday. [08:02] ! Ms. Cleo approves [08:02] cfhowlett: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [08:06] i've only been using the "disks" application to try to either format, erase, or (now) partition this drive, what data is on here is not important [08:06] CY_Genre: Use "gksu gparted" [08:06] it's just uninitialized for some reason [08:06] CY_Genre: ^ [08:08] use fdisk on the drive, delete anything thats there, and make a new partiton, then run mkfs.ext4 /dev/drivehere [08:08] CY Genre Bekks made it clear about mounting. Without a File System, a partition is useless even with data on it. Use a data recovery software and save any data. then just do a DOD i.e. Department Of Defence disk erasure and wipe the disk clean. Then now you have something to work with. [08:09] error opening device /dev/sdb no such device or address [08:09] i was afraid of that [08:09] Zulu_Too: No need for that dod nonsense. The disk IS uninitialized :) [08:09] so basically dban this thing [08:09] CY_Genre: When doing what? [08:09] CY_Genre: Again: provide details. [08:10] If the disk has data on it just wipe it clean and start new. [08:10] Zulu_Too: No need for wiping it. [08:10] bekks, Crystal Balls, rofl :P [08:10] Yes there is. [08:10] Why have garbage on the diskA? [08:11] Zulu_Too: partitioning will overwrite it anyway [08:11] A clean disk is a clean start. [08:11] Zulu_Too: There is entirely no sense in using the DOD procedures unless you are working for the DOD or the Army. [08:12] A simple disk wipe is good enough. [08:12] Zulu_Too: Thats not following the DOD procedure. [08:12] Formatting a disk can be unformatted. [08:13] Zulu_Too: "formatting a disk" means: "creating a filesystem". Please see the backlog for basic guidelines on how to use disks. [08:13] Zulu_Too: he already said the data is not worth it, if it was highly sensitive data then it might be worth considering under more extreme conditions of paranoia [08:13] That is not what I was referring to. If you format a disk, there is residual data on the disk. [08:14] Zulu_Too: Which is irrelevant, since the data left is irrelevant, as he stated. [08:14] Zulu_Too: and that will be overwritten when the partitions start to fill up anyway [08:14] Hello ellows I have a weird problem. I have no internet on the desktop and I have discovered by looking on /var/log/syslog that the network manager is being killed and the ethernet interface from eth0 is renamed to eth1. [08:15] It is not whether it is irrelevant in this instance or any other instance. Residual data is not a good thing. [08:15] Do you have any idea why does this happen? [08:15] Zulu_Too: It is irrelevant unless you are dealing with sensitive data. [08:15] If I use a Windows box and delete a file the data is still on the disk. [08:15] Zulu_Too: Or too much paranoia and too less meds against it. [08:16] By the way any virus on the disk that is deleted is still on the disk. I have seen this. Some viruses thrive on ignorant people not cleansing the disk. The virus is hidden because the disk was not erased. [08:17] Zulu_Too, windows? this ain't windows. can we move on to the supported topic please? [08:18] I understand that. [08:20] If the person wants to just download an installation CD or DVD and install Ubuntu, Ubuntu will do all that you said above without the critical DOD erasure. I agree.

[10:49] sounds like an ethernet [10:49] it has been ethX in years [10:49] ist something stupid new thing? [10:49] But it isnt anymore. [10:49] LOL [10:49] It is called systemd. No joking intended. [10:50] big joek [10:50] joke* [10:50] i heard about mint 18 [10:50] !mint | simon_ [10:50] simon_: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [10:50] arcsky: Basically, the name of the interface is irrelevant, once you setup your networking. [10:50] hi [10:51] yes bekks but its traditonal inteface for ethernet for linux [10:51] since the beginigs [10:51] arcsky: And? [10:51] why the hell change names of it [10:51] arcsky: Traditions change. [10:51] ooooh its ubuntu>> sorrry [10:51] they will lose users for this [10:51] arcsky: Accept the fact that the old sysv init tradition os gone. [10:52] *is [10:52] Gentoo/slackware/debain/ changed too? [10:52] arcsky: And if someone uses an OS just for the name of the ethernet interface - well, that no big loss then. [10:52] arcsky: Sure.

[10:55] hi guys [10:55] bekks: an ducasse do you like the new sysv? :P [10:55] arcsky: Thats irrelevant to the ubuntu support.

[13:56] SchrodingersScat: 14.04 lts [13:56] SchrodingersScat: kubuntu 15.04 IS released already http://kubuntu.com/getkubuntu/ [13:56] !15.04 [13:56] Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) was the 22nd release of Ubuntu. Support ended on February 4, 2016. See !eol, !eolupgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/vivid [13:56] Beladona: that's not supported anymore. [13:56] Hi guys, anyone know how to get around the login loop after installing nvidia drivers on ubuntu 15? [13:56] SchrodingersScat: which is not supported? [13:57] Beladona: kubuntu 15.04 [13:57] yongkaihe, can you provide more detail? I am also having bluetooth issues maybe something I have read may help [13:57] i just did apt-get install nvidia-current or whatever but after i reboot the screen res is super low [13:57] jraynes89: wich ubuntu version exactly? [13:57] 15.10 [13:57] jraynes89: wich card and driver version? [13:57] SchrodingersScat: ya but why cant I upgrade to 16.04 lts? [13:57] Beladona, you must do an eolupgrade. for now you are totally unprotected and unsecured. [13:57] !eolupgrade [13:57] 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. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [13:57] its a nvidia gtx960 (maxwell generation I think) [13:58] cfhowlett: why is that? [13:58] Beladona: I believe the recommended path is to wait until 16.04.1, but there's probably a way around it, like -d possibly, but that's likely less recommended [13:58] and driver version 352 [13:58] jraynes89: try sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall [13:58] yeah I can uninstall and get back to where I was but I was wondering if anyone knew how to get the drivers to install cleanly [13:58] Beladona, because, as you read in the link, support for 15.04 ended. no updates. no security [13:58] cfhowlett: Beladona says they're on 14.04, trying to get to 16.04, I think the EOL version was a typo. [13:58] cfhowlett: 14.04 lts is not end of like. it should be supported for 5 years [13:59] I tried to disable those nouveau drivers before installing the nvidia drivers but it did not help [13:59] yongkaihe, are you there? [13:59] and the nvidia installer is no help either [13:59] Beladona, ah. true. thought I read you were on 15.04 [13:59] * Beladona is on 14.04 lts [14:00] jraynes89: for gtx cards you might wanna try higher kernel + latest drivers from ubuntu ppa [14:00] my computer is dell xps 9343 [14:00] so what I can do? why i see no release available [14:00] the graphics-drivers ppa? [14:00] yongkai: what device are you trying to connect? [14:00] Beladona, wait. 16.04.1 will enabled direct upgrade for 14.04 users [14:01] Beladona: my 14.04 machines also don't see an upgrade yet, this is normal. 15.10 machines can, likely because they're non-lts and need to upgrade soon. Seems they're giving more care for the LTS by letting them wait. [14:01] i am tring to connect to my phone through bluetooth [14:02] ok [14:02] why I cant get the official one? krytarik SchrodingersScat what can I do to get the Offical 16.0lts [14:02] i can find my phone ,but can't be connected [14:02] jraynes89: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [14:02] yongkaihe, in the system settings menu, are you able to scan and see the phone? [14:02] ok thanks [14:02] Beladona: as said before, wait for 16.04.1 to drop. [14:03] jraynes89: the nvidia-364 perhaps [14:03] yes ,i can [14:03] does it give any error message when you try to connect? [14:03] and is your phone connected to any other devices? [14:04] Beladona: I believe it's mostly a caution thing - the assumption is that people on a LTS value stability a lot, so Ubuntu doesn't actively start encouraging LTS-to-LTS upgrades until the first point release of a new LTS. It's still possible to upgrade anyway if you feel brave. Though, 16.04 has had enough bugs that I kind of wish I'd stayed on 15.10 for a bit longer [14:04] hello [14:04] i also tried my bluetooth headset,it is the same condition [14:04] hello [14:04] DArqueBishop: I see http://kubuntu.com/getkubuntu/ declares the official releast of 16.04 lts. My questions is that if I am on 14.04 lts, why.. cant I see it in do-release-upgrade notI can upgrade without a -d ? [14:04] maxb: every version suffers bugs [14:04] maxb: SchrodingersScat cfhowlett ^ [14:05] lotuspsychje: Sure, but a pretty major regression affecting all use of bluetooth headphones is a bit more than you'd typically expect, especially from an LTS [14:05] yongkaihe, can you see what output you get from the following command. sudo service bluetooth status [14:05] Beladona: does -d say it'll take you to 16.04? You'd be leaving the path of recommendation, but maybe that's your choice. [14:05] Is it possible to find all installed third party packages? (the ones installed by gdebi, dpkg -i, make install, etc) [14:06] maxb: bugs are there to get solved and users come here for help also [14:06] Beladona: why can't you wait until 16.04.1? [14:06] SchrodingersScat: thats my question, why I have to add -d if the stable official is there [14:06] DArqueBishop: why should i? [14:06] Beladona: As I just said, it's a caution thing. If you're still running 14.04 at this point, Ubuntu assumes you value stability more than being on the bleeding edge. Thus, the *recommended* position is to give 16.04 a bit more time to mature [14:06] DArqueBishop: I have an issue with my mic ; I cant fix drivers. maybe the next version has [14:06] Beladona: I refer you to maxb's explanation. [14:07] maxb: ok [14:07] in other words, bleeding edge is bloody. [14:07] maxb: but this is unexpected. if official is there. it should be there for upgrades [14:07] cfhowlett: bleeding edge is bloody edge [14:07] Beladona: Unexpected to you perhaps. [14:07] ya [14:08] Beladona: it's a bit new yes, but I believe they announced it some time ago, I know I was being told that it would be 16.04.1 couple months before they were releasing. [14:08] maxb: if I say, stable is out, take it but I dont give it for upgrades. is contrary to my own satement [14:08] and I don't follow things [14:08] oldspice：it replys:not enogh free handles register service [14:08] statement [14:09] yongkai, was this working before you had an update? [14:09] Beladona: that's because clean installs are almost always far less problematic than upgrades of existing systems. [14:09] sap driver initialization failed [14:09] Beladona: You need to adjust your expectations. Released and not released is not a boolean state. 16.04 is currently in a state of "we think it meets the expectations of people on a 6-monthly upgrade schedule, but if you only use LTSes, we think you should give us some more time to polish it" [14:10] yes,i can update the bluetooth ,and tyied many times [14:10] Beladona: I'm actually in the middle of pulling data in from a fresh 16.04 install because I didn't want to wait :D I could have tried the other method, but this seemed cleaner... I'll be your guinea pig, you're welcome ;( [14:10] maxb: SchrodingersScat ok, how can I get latest drivers for my mic. [14:11] the first wave of fixes will be rolled into 16.04.1. Nothing stops you from forcing the issue immediately with a clean install. I have found the saner option is to just be patient. [14:11] yongkaihe, I am not certain, but I think you and I are having the same issue. Sometimes I restart and the icon is there, sometimes not [14:11] Went to install xchat and it says "xchat has no installation candidaye." Where did it go and how do I install it ? [14:11] oh 14.04 [14:11] on [14:11] !xchat | qkzoo1978 [14:11] qkzoo1978: 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. [14:11] it was working fine for me before [14:11] thanks [14:12] qkzoo1978: To supplement the answer from ubottu, hexchat is actually a fork of xchat and is extremely similar, so it's a pretty easy transition [14:12] qkzoo1978, xchat has been abandonware for years. install hexchat [14:12] is there a package that I can use to smoothen my mic [14:12] it works on widnows well [14:12] yongkaihe, In the last 2 maybe 3 days this issue appeared?

I'm a linux newbie and am wondering where I should go about storing downloaded applications (f.e. Telegram) and how I can create a favorite shortcut (preferably with an icon) [14:15] Hyrule: are you on 16.04? [14:15] yes, and on GNOME [14:15] Hyrule: you can install the new telegram snap package if you like [14:16] yongkaihe, I am sorry I dont think I can help you any further but I do think that you are experiencing the same issue as me. I am working on the assumption that like me, You have used the hardware you are trying to use in this way before. The hardware is not the issue. [14:16] Hyrule: sudo snap install telegram-sergiusens [14:16] lotuspsychje: is it always preferable to install the packages from the distribution? I ran into a bug with Qt5 yesterday and was forced to. [14:16] socket: there's lots of ways to transfer files, guess it depends on what your devices support.

I'm on Ubuntu 15.10, with the `xubuntu-desktop` package installed, and most of the default `unity-*` and `ubuntu-desktop` package(s) removed. I installed CompizConfig Settings Manager and the extras, within which I enabled the Scale Windows plugin, which is shown to be bound to the Super + W keystroke. It doesn't seem to work though :/ [14:17] How might I fix this? [14:17] Yannii: that is looking sweet. I'll read on it [14:17] yongkaihe, I do think that its intermittent. sometimes opening the bluetooth settings in the system settings menu and switching it on and rebooting makes the icon appear for me, but it doesn't necessarily start again when you reboot next. [14:17] carrotcorn: afaik xubuntu doesn't use compiz, I could be wrong? [14:19] compiz is optional on Xubuntu, SchrodingersScat [14:19] oldspice:Thank you.I will try again. [14:19] yongkaihe, I think that sometimes it is not recognising the bluetooth interface in the computer. or at least not selecting it correctly. What output do you have on dmesg | tail [14:19] Yannii: k, thanks. carrotcorn: looks like there's a couple guides online on how to get that.

[14:46] baizon or oerheks: can you answer me this: how do i access localhost through windows on NAT? [14:50] trick2g: https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html [14:53] baizon: not helpful [14:54] trick2g: why would we know anything about windows here? [14:55] they should make shifts "I'm a linux user, ask me about anything you want" [14:55] and maybe a on the back [14:55] *shirts [14:59] ducasse: can you answer me why when i have a bridged connection on virtualbox i cant use apt-get? [15:00] trick2g: your router is blocking, that would be my guess [15:00] i can ping google though [15:01] trick2g: i don't use vbox, so no idea. i use a bridge with kvm, though, and those guests work just fine. _guessing_ your setup is wrong. [15:01] trick2g, that is explained in that doc, bridged for www, nat for local network etc [15:02] derheks: i can use bridged and and access localhost but no internet, and i use NAT and access the internet and no localhost...but how can i access localhost and the internet at the same time.. [15:05] trick2g, all this effort for one line apt-get? the easiest way is to share a folder, as we answered already [15:07] no its not one line im using the server for development purposes and i'd like to be able to use apt-get while being able to access localhost [15:07] i have to keep turning off the server and switching to NAT to apt-get and then switch back to bridged to start the localhost server again..its awful. [15:07] trick2g, make sure your user on the host is a member of the vboxsf group. i use nat and access both the internet and local shared folders here. [15:07] hey [15:08] paul: but can you access a web server like nginx outside of ubuntu? thats what im trying to do [15:10] what do you mean? [15:11] that i don't know, trick2g your question was about local and internet, i don't use nginx, but i can ssh into other remote systems on my network to do updates from my vm, so i would guess you should be able to reach nginx server. [15:13] trick2g: with bridged connection you access your lan as any other host. with nat you access your lan through your vbox host machine. why do you say localhost server? === koi-fish is now known as KoiFish [15:14] SchrodingersScat: Hi!

[16:33] yeah, i can do that, but then if i add a third user, would i need to install the packages again? seems like someone would have thought of a better way to handle this [16:33] d S4123 [16:33] hi [16:34] who is running Backbox? [16:34] jackbat: no the installed packages are available for all users. how did you install them? [16:34] just installed ubuntu 16.04 and i have no unity dash launcher and top menu bar, anyone know how to fix this? [16:34] jackbat, your new user needs to be a part of some group like libvirtd prolly... type groups as that user to see what groups he's in [16:34] how to hide more suggestion from the unity application? [16:35] jackbat: if you install files into your home directory, they won't be available for other users [16:35] akik, don't remember exactly. i installed ruby and rails for example, but when i type `which rails`, it doesn't show anything [16:35] drama - i'm in my own group [16:35] jackbat: you would need to know *where* you installed them [16:35] i mean, the result of that command is the same name as the user [16:35] Why Unity 8 acts so strangely on my laptop ?

[16:38] so im like on guard for it now [16:38] akik, i think apt-get [16:38] jackbat: apt-get installs the software packages globally for every user [16:39] if i create a new group and add a couple users, if one user installs packages, will the other user have access to them?

[18:20] !help [18:20] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [18:21] sveinse, did you make a /boot/efi partition? [18:21] !uefi [18:21] 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/UEFI [18:22] katie1232: I've disabled UEFI in BIOS, but still it does not boot, so I think grub is gone. The drive has a separate EFI partition, yes [18:22] does bootable live thumb drive require administrative acces to use ubuntu? [18:23] sveinse, and with UEFI enable in the BIOS setup the machine won't boot? [18:23] katie1232: nope [18:23] katie1232: neither in UEFI or in non-UEFI mode [18:23] sveinse, did you make sure that the install was in UEFI mode? [18:25] katie1232: Quite francly I dont wat UEFI. Now my server is down due to boot issues. The setup is this: Bootable USB drive containing EFI part and boot, root on ZFS array [18:25] katie1232, first be sure to be updated (sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade) then you can backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf and reboot [18:25] sveinse, open a TTY and see if /sys/firmware/efi exists [18:26] katie1232: on what? the server that won't boot? [18:26] root on ZFS array? [18:26] OerHeks: yep, been running that for soon to be 4 years [18:27] sveinse, okay if you don't want UEFI and wan't to install with normal BIOS you have to specifically tell it to install in BIOS mode, the ubuntu install is smart enough to auto detect UEFI mode. [18:27] https://github.com/zfsonlinux/pkg-zfs/wiki/HOWTO-install-Ubuntu-16.04-to-a-Native-ZFS-Root-Filesystem , comandline example, so should work for server too [18:29] OerHeks: Yes, but the server does not run 16.04 (yet), so this is a manual process. Which is the reason that the boot media is a USB device, making sure the grub, kernel and initrd is read from an ordinary non-zfs source [18:30] Hi ... Can someone tell me best paid/opensource backup tools for Ubuntu/CentOS at enterprise level [18:30] So my problem is this: How do I make this USB device boot again?

[18:49] It's only a problem while charging [18:49] sveinse: you've put the hdd on a new pc it wasn't on originally? [18:50] EriC^^: Its a NAS server with loads of drives in them.

Point is I have an existing server (now unbootable) that /runs/ 15.04. I need to be able to boot it before I can upgrade anything [19:06] I boot up, have wired connection, no wireless. Do a sudo service network-manager restart, and my wireless appears. Any ideas how I go about troubleshooting this? I need it to come up straight away, without my intervention [19:06] sveinse: if you enable legacy it boots? [19:06] sveinse: what changed that made it unbootable? [19:06] gubuntu 16.04, btw [19:07] gnubuntu [19:07] that should be a thing [19:07] tgm4883: I replaced a drive in the ZFS array.

Yet ASUS BIOS is somewhat ambiguous to "legacy" mode. According to what I've found on the web, setting secure boot to "Other OS" effectively sets it in legacy mode [19:10] sveinse: where'd you paste that grub-install info from earlier? [19:10] usb booted in legacy mode? [19:11] Hi there. do you know how to see every single network available with network-manager? I want to be able to choose among hotspots with the same name/SSID but N-M chooses/shows me only the best one. I used to do it with WICD. I'm using Ubuntu 15.10 [19:11] ioria: Chrome is using 200%, and onedrive is using 100% [19:11] it's a dual core i5 [19:12] EriC^^: I'm trying to boot the USB device on another laptop I have that have grub on it (but without EFI) [19:12] with hyperthreading [19:13] EriC^^: I attempted to mount the USB device root on a running machine, and then chroot to it and use it to install grub to the USB device. But it failed. So my next attempt were if I can boot from the USB device using the grub on the laptop [19:14] Dumle29, try to add drm_kms_helper.poll=N as kernel boot parameter [19:14] ioria: In GRUB? [19:14] Dumle29, yes [19:15] Okay I think I've found the issue [19:15] sveinse: why do you want to boot the usb device to install grub to it? [19:15] It seems CPU frequency get's limited to 400MHz whenever I plug in power [19:16] EriC^^: Because I can't get my server to boot! [19:16] sveinse: isn't it a live usb? [19:16] EriC^^: No. Its the installed system [19:17] with the main partition and everything? [19:17] the complete system? [19:18] EriC^^: Yes. And no, being a NAS server, so the bulk of data is on the raid array. But the system is [19:18] sveinse: you should make a live usb and boot that on your actual system [19:18] and then chroot and reinstall grub to your usb [19:18] it all doesn't make sense though [19:18] Helllo......new to ubuntu....16.04. Cannot get flash working in all. DL'ed Lightspark through terminal. Doesn't show in software. DL'ed adobe..... wants to know what app to open ATP with..... no idea what that means but it only opens home. Pics, Docs, etc. [19:19] EriC^^: Yes, I think I'll have to do that. And rid myself of this pesky UEFI thing. I can't have a system which becomes unbootable every time a drive is replaced in the array [19:19] sveinse, tell EriC^^ you are playing with zfs, not really unimportant, do you think? [19:19] use maxthon [19:19] sveinse: that doesn't make sense though [19:20] ioria: On bootup, or is there a file to add it to? [19:20] uefi > usb the drive doesn't really matter unless your uefi actually is impacted by it [19:20] OerHeks: To this discussion it is, because the zfs is only a datastorage. grub, boot, kernel, initrd and root is on the USB device [19:20] the uefi manual probably has all the answers to your problem [19:20] Dumle29, first try on bootup, if it works we make it permanent [19:21] Maynard_: define not working please, you install flash plugin for Firefox with: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer === c64 is now known as eniacpx [19:23] Working with chromium and FF as my backup.

How would I avoid that: sed -rne 's/\s+generated\/(.+)/\|\1.ipynb/p' [19:45] uac? not familiar there either sorry [19:45] Rubiksmomo, it complaints about libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 (>= 7.2), so examin if you need updating your lists, or hidden in one of your ppa's [19:45] UAC it's like ok lemme turn u off cuz u make my life miserable (open self up to security probs) [19:45] drewdroid: commentary not necessary [19:46] what? it's true [19:46] i wanna remove it [19:46] or i should say stinky [19:46] Maynard_: it's elevating your privleges to administrator/root level [19:46] Maynard_, uname -a ? [19:46] drewdroid: keep it support related please [19:46] lol drewdoid [19:46] it is support related [19:47] drewdroid: it wasn't a question, nor in response to a question. It wasn't even about Ubuntu. It is definitely NOT support related [19:47] it's the same concept but poor implementation which makes it mostly unusuable on windows but good on linux [19:47] and now i have a trouble [19:47] for upload it [19:47] OerHeks: And how do I do that? "apt-get update " didn't help [19:47] WHat's that ioria_? [19:47] it was a comment... didn't know it wasn't allowed... an analogy [19:48] https://paste.ubuntu.com/16419160/ [19:48] Maynard_, your cpu is 32 bit or you installed ubuntu 32 bit ? [19:48] Anyone that uses Chrome Remote Desktop here? [19:48] i got a question about ubuntu tho [19:48] it wasnt really answerd [19:49] drewdroid: the technical merits of a feature of Windows is not up for discussion/comment and is off topic in this channel [19:49] drewdroid: what was your question [19:49] is there ANYTHING that ubuntu could possibly do upon a crash that would nuke the parritition table of a hard drive that its on [19:49] #ubuntu-offtopic no? [19:49] because this has happned twice to me [19:49] Rubiksmomo, check /etc/apt/sources.list.d folder for the ppa's , this is why the !PPA factoid says: you are on your own or seek support from the ppa maintainer, this seeking can go on endlessly [19:50] drewdroid: what type of crash? [19:50] !ppa [19:50] A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge [19:50] usually it's a crash where im unable to do reisub [19:50] total freeze [19:50] gotta maybe just push reset [19:50] i think maybe it happened once during a reisub [19:50] and wine issues, really, that is not why i joined ubuntu. [19:51] I installed 64 same as my CPU. But when I go check it is all in 32 bit i386 or whatever instead of i86x [19:51] @ioria [19:51] Maynard_, uname -a ? [19:51] drewdroid: doubtful. it's not like there is a feature in the kernel which says "PANIC? Lets touch the partition table". Especially if you can't even reisub [19:51] not a wine thing by the way one time i was playing minecraft, the other time i cant remember what i was doing but crash... and then unallocated space on hard drive.... and i had to use rescue tools to fix the partition [19:51] Maynard_, and lscpu | grep "CPU op-mode" [19:52] well obv it wouldnt be a feature lol [19:52] itd be a massive bug [19:52] drewdroid: is it possibly you have hardware failure? [19:52] totally possible i was rulin out the software one [19:52] indeed more likely [19:52] but what to test [19:52] and with what [19:52] drewdroid, ubuntu does not nuke partitiontables, users do. [19:53] Ioria_ here you go.... 4.4.0-22-lowlatency #39-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Thu May 5 17:39:46 UTC 2016 i686 athlon i686 GNU/Linux [19:53] well ssee i dunno if the partition table got nuked but whatever it was caused my partitions to be "lost/deleted" upon crash [19:53] drewdroid: I find it difficult to believe it's a bug. In order for it to be a bug, there would have to be a feature for it to go and do something with the partition table (and thus the bug is it's doing the wrong thing) [19:53] oh, now you talk about crash [19:53] OerHeks: he mentioned a crash before [19:54] im playing devil's advocate here, i feeel like this cant possibly be ubuntu [19:54] but was just asking to make sure [19:54] did you try a memtest86 run? [19:54] Maynard_, i think you installed 32bit [19:54] not yet [19:54] so memtest, any other diags u can recommend [19:54] Maynard_, lscpu | grep "CPU op-mode" [19:54] drewdroid, also check the s.m.a.r.t. statu === Dorami-Doraemon is now known as Guest42247 [19:55] drewdroid: could be lots of things. bad memory, bad drive, bad power supply..

[21:31] I did it from the 64. I have my bootasble flash in....where would I find version? [21:32] fr ? [21:32] DL was from ubuntustudio.org Direct from the ubuntu site. [21:32] Maynard_: I guarantee that you installed it from the 32-bit ISO. That's what the text says in that link [21:33] and the ubuntu studio website correctly links 32-bit and 64-bit sooooooo [21:33] Maynard_: If it were me, I'd download the 64-bit version [21:33] dax: heh, I checked that too [21:34] maybe you installed sidebyside .. [21:34] OK so as I said version can be found where? boot? install? one of these txt files? [21:34] where ? [21:34] Maynard_: what do you mean version? [21:34] Maynard_: what are you looking for? [21:34] the ISO is open i just have no clue where to find the version to show you all. [21:35] on the off chance that someone knows how to fix this. i've got an error like this in /var/log/syslog. "Failed to execute child process "mintwelcome-launcher" (no such file or directory)". anyone know how to reset/reinstal mintwelcome-launcher? [21:35] verson.....32/ 64 [21:35] Maynard_: oh, you want to know from a file on the ISO? ok one sec [21:36] Maynard_: README.diskdefines [21:36] yeah sorry an thanks....... [21:36] Maynard_: Might be good to verify ' grep -w lm /proc/cpuinfo ' , If you see "lm" in red, it's a 64 bit operating system. Otherwise it's 32 bits. [21:37] Bashing-om: why are we doing that again (and as I recall, Maynard didn't know how to do that so it might just make more sense for us to get it pastebin'd) [21:37] Yup......my .iso is 32.............. Shitbags. #define TYPE binary#define DISKNAME Ubuntu-Studio 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release i386 #define TYPEbinary 1 #define ARCH i386 #define ARCHi386 1 #define DISKNUM 1 #define DISKNUM1 1 #define TOTALNUM 0 #define TOTALNUM0 1 [21:38] Maynard_: tell me something I don't already know ;) [21:38] tgm4883: If this is a 32 bit OS . We be beating a dead horse, no need to go further, no ? [21:38] lm is in red though [21:38] Bashing-om: it's a 32-bit OS. We determined that like 2 hours ago I thought? === JoshuaACasey is now known as GlowStone === GlowStone is now known as JoshuaACasey [21:39] Bashing-om: and doing that to determine it's a 32-bit OS seems convoluted to me. Why not just look at uname? [21:40] tgm4883: K, then beat me for not paying attention . I was away from the channel and did not play catch up very well . [21:40] Bashing-om: no worries. I was just wondering if there was something that was supposed to give us over unam [21:40] uname* [21:41] either way bashom_ it shows in red but iso is showing 32 as well as ls.....blah blah blah [21:41] Maynard_: so yea, I'd just grab a new ISO. You set on Ubuntu Studio? [21:41] tgm4883: uname give the software .. the cpuinfo is hardware . [21:42] Bashing-om: oh, you wanted to know about the CPU. That's where I was confused since you said OS [21:42] Bashing-om: The CPU is AMD64 capable (when is the last time they made non-64bit processors?) [21:43] Maynard_: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/xenial/release/ubuntustudio-16.04-dvd-amd64.iso This would be the 64-bit ISO that you are looking for is you still want ubuntu studio [21:43] Yeah sorta but having so much damn trouble here REPEATEDLY....... that I need help. I chose studio cause A) LTS B) Newest version and came with a ton of the apps I will be using and or looking for later. [21:44] geez, it's almost 3 and I haven't had lunch yet. Stupid xcom 2 mission that takes forever [21:45] tgm_ yeah that is the EXACT place I got this ISO from. [21:45] Something happens during install??? IDK will ubuntu do thAT? [21:46] Maynard_: doubtful, but I'll download it and verify if you want [21:47] Hi, "strictly speaking" do processes have names? For me "process name" is a language abuse to refer to the executable name, right? [21:47] Maynard_: It's more likely that you downloaded hp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/xenial/release/ubuntustudio-16.04-dvd-i386.iso [21:47] Maynard_: it's impossible for the 64-bit installer to install the 32-bit version. As you've already found out though, you used the 32-bit installer [21:48] Maynard_: actually, what I would probably do if I were you is download the 64-bit server install and then install the ubuntu studio desktop package (or even better, grab the net installer) [21:48] tgm_ can you verify faster thna me downloading AGAIN from the same place @ ~Kb/sec? [21:48] Maynard_: no, I just looked and it's going to take me 4 hours to download that [21:49] While installing it deletes a whole TON of stuff [21:49] Ubuntu studio needs to get some mirrors [21:49] Maynard_: yes, it wipes the partition it's installing to [21:50] Maynard_: actually, what is the filename of the ISO you have [21:50] I can mirror an iso or two :) [21:50] UBUNTUSTUD [21:50] the studio torrent is running crazy, i seed iso's too [21:51] Maynard_: that's not the filename unless you changed it to that [21:51] OK where do I see filename? [21:51] um [21:52] it's the name of the file... [21:52] > yo so idk if you guys know how to fix this, but I'm getting a really wierd error. So i get unknown host when trying to use socket.gethostbyaddr('8.8.8.8') in a vm (which has an internet connection), but not outside of the vm (it works fine outside). How can I fix this? [21:52] booot....casper....dsks....install...isolinux.... [21:53] Maynard_: no, not on the ISO. It's the name of the file you downloaded [21:53] those are files in my iso [21:53] I'm having the same issue with the host command. Here's my resolv.conf file: https://gist.github.com/jakesyl/a80e956678f1feca494fa714c18da6c0 [21:53] roger [21:53] sorry frazzled here [21:53] one sec [21:56] my iso is on a flash the one I named UBUNTUSTUD........... not finding the file name. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. [21:56] /set buffers.look.hotlist_counter on [21:56] sorry :P [21:57] I can't even navigate this thing after 2 weeks of FP(&&^R# around in here. [21:57] Maynard_: do you actually still have the file? [21:58] no clue......I have the bootable ISO on flash.... can explore....no clue wher the actual file name will bbe found [21:59] I just fresh installed ubuntu 16.04 and each time I try to edit xorg conf I get black screen. I'm trying to get dri3 and tearfree on [21:59] Maynard_: nope, no need. Since you don't have the ISO anymore, I'm going to assume that you clicked on the wrong link and downloaded the 32-bit version. I would suggest using the torrent, as it will be much faster to download http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/xenial/release/ubuntustudio-16.04-dvd-amd64.iso.torrent [22:00] greetings! [22:02] i took out my hd and put back again. but now my ubuntu is starting straight to GRUB MODE LINE. [22:02] OK what do I do with the torrent? [22:02] Hi, is there any way I can fix "sudo: initctl: command not found" [22:02] Maynard_: double click it? [22:03] hi! [22:03] opens in transmission. trash .torrent after? [22:03] mu keyboard is crazy! [22:03] I even added this entry to my interfaces file: https://gist.github.com/jakesyl/4a3e7c7ca6bf63b1f5388810914ba45e [22:03] Maynard_: is it downloading now? [22:03] total deconfigurated/// [22:03] just by using an external keyboard I can write [22:03] The .img downloads next to the .isos, are that images that can be copied to USB boot media? [22:04] the letters and numbers are mixed! [22:05] lol torrent is faster eh? 1 day 5 hours remaining [22:05] any ideoas? [22:05] about how to fix it? [22:05] Maynard_: give it a few minutes [22:06] Has anyone experienced black monitor when you enable dri3 or tearfree in xorg conf? [22:07] 8 hours. Isn't torrent unsafe (especially since I know JACK about this OS??? [22:07] Studio.org DL was faster [22:07] so [22:07] Maynard_: torrents are safe. Where are you located?

[22:10] Maynard_: did you wait for it to pick up speed? [22:10] Manynard_ do you have dht in your torrent client? [22:10] Maynard_: I just downloaded the whole ISO in 4 minutes using the torrent [22:11] yeah, it's fast I seed it [22:11] still was at 7 hours. [22:11] OK..... one sec [22:11] Maynard_: you cancelled it. It does have to reach out and connect to the individual seeds [22:13] Hello! I am very new to Linux and if it is alright I would like to ask a question === al_ is now known as Guest48905 [22:13] This is part of my headache. I am running one flash as a bootable ISO. Installed from there to a 32 G flash. That last one IS my HD. Storage controller is either toast or driver needs re-install. Wiped 10 years of photography, vids etc so THAT HDD won't get touched till I can get to a REAL PRO. [22:14] Raven you can just ask lol [22:14] ravenswing, don't ask to ask a question [22:14] xD [22:14] Electron-: ? [22:14] anyone can help me, i lost GUI MODE. [22:14] oh.. [22:14] sorry [22:15] I killed it at 4Kb/s with 20+ people on there. [22:15] I'm gonna trust you and wipe that small flash to get another ISO to. [22:15] do you have a terminal psaux? [22:16] I really hope you're right tgm4883_ [22:16] Maynard_: Look. You know what you need to do. Download the 64-bit ISO, and install from it. If you are worried about that other drive, then unplug it. [22:16] Would anybody here know how I could bind keyboard keys to my xbox 360 controller in a CLI environment [22:17] No you missed it.... I have NO HD inside the machine. [22:17] Hello, is it possible to install and run ubuntu off a 250gb external hd EFFECTIVELY? [22:17] I unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your point of view) don't have any more time (we've already been working on this for 3 hours) to spend on this as I need to go pick someone up and take them home. [22:17] 2 seperate flash drives are running this thing. HDD won't read. [22:17] OK thanks....bye [22:18] I have recently installed Lubuntu over top of Puppy Linux.

From the repositories, or from their code and compiling you... nevermind [22:27] since they left. [22:27] I apologize, I will see what I can find out while I wait [22:28] @ravenswing, i think you just need to mount the 2fs file to see its contents, see: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=16817&sid=66af6d2feccf4759c9b8ba2e45fe6d8c [22:28] ravenswing: .2fs is a file extension associated with pupply linux's snapshot of operating system state before you turned off your computer. So, I don't think its a file that you created. [22:29] ravenswing: in theory you can mount it per DiscoStarslayer's link, but in actuality it's probably not a file you created - it's a snapshot of the OS state before it was turned off === Guest44930 is now known as kuksuger [22:30] hmm what about the files ending in .sfs? [22:32] ravenswing, did you encrypt the /home/ folder ? [22:37] Anyone having problems isntalling docker?

[22:46] but none stable version till now [22:48] someone here using it? [22:48] how is it different? [22:49] i`m with this troub. http://postimg.org/image/efceclbg1/ [22:49] E: Failed to fetch http://58.27.38.6/jaist.dl.sourceforge.net/project/corefonts/the fonts/final/andale32.exe Hash Sum mismatch [22:49] E: Download Failed [22:49] guys I am getting this error [22:49] while installing msttcorefonts [22:51] Codfection, sudo apt install msttcorefonts it's in repo's [22:53] thats what I did [22:53] How can I reinstall grub on a device? When I drop into rescue mode (using the server installer) grub install fails. Complaining that /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/modinfo.sh does not exist [22:53] It cant seem to want to detect the UEFI stuff here [22:54] Any other ideas? [22:55] squinty, any idea?

[22:58] there is a space in that name, strange [22:58] yes it even barfs in web browser [22:58] How can I control the volume of each audio device and save those settings?

[22:59] anyway, apt-get install -f should do something [22:59] seems to be working/downloading here without any errors [23:01] Codfection, I had them already installed but ran sudo apt purge ttf-mscorefonts-installer and then restarted the install process again. will let you know if it completes without errors [23:01] pavucontrol is a good controller for audio [23:02] Codfection, no errors install looks good [23:02] wow [23:03] yeah if it would work [23:03] I set volume on my headphones to 25% and switching between the output devices doesn't take notice of that [23:04] or rather the volume is now set to 25% on every output device [23:04] seems the volume is not set per device but instead on a system-wide level [23:05] hey people, succesfully installed ubuntu powerpc on my mac mini. however whenever i get to xorg the screen goes to black. worst part is, when i switch to tty2 (ctrl alt f2) within 5 seconds restarts xorg and goes to black again [23:08] my question is twofold. how do i stop xorg from starting and what is stopping xorg from working [23:08] Anyone else using the new Ubuntu Studio 16.04 or even reg.16.04? [23:09] please i want to install idman on ubuntu [23:09] Maynard, better to just state your problem rather than taking a poll with "Is anyone....." [23:09] Maynard, btw, there is also #ubuntu-studio [23:10] I'm listening to music in chrome, so I set chrome to 100% and tried overwriting the volume directly on the output device to no avail: http://fs5.directupload.net/images/160515/k9zctx6s.png [23:10] How do I reinstall grub with UEFI on a system? [23:12] I'm running out of ideas. Tried runing the server installer into rescue mode, but that does not help, grub-install fails as it tries to install the non-UEFI grub (which isn't installed) [23:13] studio is a ghost town [23:13] If no one is usuing it then not likely an answer will be found here. [23:14] sveinse: Do you know the partition that ubuntu is installed to ? [23:14] Bashing-om: yes [23:14] Ugh, a recent update completely killed my network manager [23:15] Going to guess the issue is libnl again [23:15] Afdal, http://askubuntu.com/questions/771627/14-04-network-manager-stopped-working/771841#771841 [23:15] I had to deal with this problem like 5 months ago [23:15] using one of the experimental repositories [23:15] pulseaudio keeps dropping out when sound peaks at high levels.. not at all annoying with my low impedance headset [23:16] sveinse: Is this the command you are running ' sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/ && sudo grub-install --target=i386-pc --boot-directory=/mnt/boot/ /dev/sda ' where ubuntu is on sda1 . [23:16] Afdal, proposed repo [23:16] Ethernet doesn't seem to work either, squinty [23:16] I don't remember how to resolve this [23:16] Bashing-om: that won't work. i386-pc grub isn't installed, it's UEFI boot [23:17] I guess how do I start up network manager manually? [23:17] lol, it still plays music even though I expect it to be muted. http://fs5.directupload.net/images/160515/faflcbve.png [23:17] does Ubuntu Studio have its own support place or is it belong here? [23:17] just what the ... [23:17] Afdal, read the fix from squinty [23:17] Afdal: IIRC, you need to download the package on another computer and transfer it to the one that is not working [23:17] sveinse: Yeah ! it should be "sudo grub-install --target=x86_64-efi" and you need to ensure that your EFI System Partition is mounted to /boot/efi/. [23:17] Afdal, there is that first link I sent you and this http://askubuntu.com/questions/727127/last-upgrade-crashes-network-manager-no-internet-connection-no-applet/727462#727462 which several participants reported back it fixed the problem yesterday === lunarmage is now known as Joaquin-V [23:18] is zsync something like rsync? [23:18] Bashing-om: ...and that didn't work either. As is, the command succeeds, but the BIOS boot fails with "Insert proper boot media" [23:19] FManTropyx, #ubuntu-studio not much traffic there though [23:19] Bashing-om: do you know the difference between x86_64-efi and x86_64-efi-signed BTW? [23:19] Afdal: Many report this works : http://askubuntu.com/questions/771627/14-04-network-manager-stopped-working/771841#771841 . [23:19] I am not using the trusty-proposed repositories anymore. Which is why I'm surprised this issue is back again. [23:20] Like I said, not even connection over ethernet is working for me :( [23:20] sveinse: Sorry, no I have very limited experience with EFI . [23:20] Afdal: did you even try the options in the link? [23:20] darn! I'm stuck. I've grown to hate UEFI [23:21] y'all gave me two links now, which one I:> [23:21] Afdal: http://askubuntu.com/questions/727127/last-upgrade-crashes-network-manager-no-internet-connection-no-applet/727462#727462 [23:21] <_jay1> Hey all, I'm installing ubuntu mate 16.04 on a new computer build, I'm getting a warning that "it looks like there may be existing operating systems already installed using "Bios compatibility mode"- is this normal? The HD is brand new [23:21] sveinse: just my 2c: have you placed the proper tag on the efi dir? [23:22] <_jay1> the only option is go back or continue in uefi compatibility mode [23:23] Rhorse: Yes. This server use to work. It stopped booting after maintenance (adding a disk, which is not involved in booting) [23:25] sveinse: OK. I still would load up the hdd in question into parted, and check the printout of the partition table to make sure everything is as it should be: sudo parted /dev/sda or whatever hdd you're using.... === Afdill is now known as Afdall [23:27] Whew, downgrading worked [23:27] LUCKILY, I still had the libnl packages from the last time I had to do this [23:28] but how do I prevent an update from overwriting them? [23:28] thanks for the help :) [23:30] Rhorse: Remind me again, what tags are needed on the efi dir (part)? [23:31] Afdall, the bad update is drawn, so upgrading now should be oke [23:32] sveinse: the efi partition should have the 'boot' flag [23:32] great, thanks [23:32] Why do I need root a run a program from pip? [23:32] pip3 [23:34] sup people [23:34] using pip is confusing [23:35] i think its using some other sources list or something [23:35] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/RSNAuI0R/ [23:35] dbz2k: pip tries to install at /usr/lib/python/site_packages (or something) by default [23:35] i tried to remove something from my sources list but it won’t remove [23:35] sveinse: are you still trying to fix booting your root ZFS partition? You can't fire up a live disk and mount it there, pull what you need and reinstall? [23:36] I also tried editing /etc/apt/sources.list and i don’t see anything about ondrej or php [23:36] dbz2k: use a virtual environment to install locally. [23:36] snyp, how? [23:36] tgm4883: I am. I just cant get it to boot from the USB drive. Once grub is up, I can do the zfs magic' [23:37] dbz2k: apt-get install python3-virtualenv [23:37] dbz2k: then google. :) [23:37] dannymichel, they are in sources.list.d folder as their own instance [23:37] dannymichel, please use ppa-purge to remove them [23:37] !ppapurge [23:37] 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:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [23:37] dbz2k: also, you should use ubuntu's packages if it already exists instead of using pip [23:37] thank you [23:38] tgm4883: I am sitting here with the 16.04 server installer attempting rescue. And I've chrooted ito the system (which is on the USB drive, not any ZFS) and ran grub-install. It succeeds, but the machine simply wont boot it [23:38] they don't populate the original sources.list anymore [23:38] So for this discussion, ZFS is out of the picture [23:38] snyp, one question is pip upgrade from pip on ubuntu package? [23:39] dbz2k: uh.. i don't get you [23:40] OerHeks: https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/DRcdf0WU/ [23:40] snyp, pip keeps telling me to update? [23:40] dbz2k: what's the exact message? [23:41] I cannot get the USB device to boot on my laptop either [23:42] Quick question for yall. Can Ubuntu, if I do update grub, Can it see a DOS 6.22 16 bit partition? [23:43] dannymichel, sudo ppa-purge ppa:ondrej/php-7.0 [23:44] thanks [23:44] that ppa:... is missing [23:45] Can a UEFI installed system be moved to another machine?
