[00:00] HappySomethingSo: I have to leave soon but am interested in how this issue ends. If you are on tomorrow, please give an update [00:00] michagogo: did you configure lxc-usernet ? [00:00] genii: ok, thank yo for your help [00:01] TJ-: I'm running privileged for now [00:01] I was under the impression that's not needed [00:01] (created with the ubuntu template as root, not download, and sudoing lxc-start) === CyberJacob is now known as zz_CyberJacob [00:02] michagogo: OK, you've set the veth and bridge in the config? [00:02] Er, maybe not? Which config, the container's? [00:03] I thought the default on Ubuntu just works... There does seem to be a veth device [00:03] michagogo: see https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/lxc.html#lxc-network [00:04] I think I tried reading that. I don't know that I understand it fully... [00:05] Right now, I don't want it to be accessible from the outside -- I want to be able, as a start, to SSH from the host into the container [00:06] Why does fresh install never set my prefix and root correctly :/ [00:06] dat grub rescue life I always forget which partition to use and it takes forever to find it again [00:11] I just upgraded to Xenial, and apt-get update is broken [00:11] It gets to "Fetched 187 kB in 5s (31.2 kB/s)" and then never finishes [00:11] Is there a way to debug this? [00:13] melodoron - apparently apt is broken right now (for me as well). [00:14] relevant logs: " whenever I run apt-get update it stucks" [00:14] " \join #ubuntu-server" [00:14] appstreamcli 100% CPU usage right? [00:17] Hm. Why does the container know who I am? [00:17] I ran sudoedit, it put me in vi [00:17] melodoron, hmmm....must be a new buglet. it was working fine yesterday..... [00:17] vim* [00:17] Now, when I exit, it says "E138: Can't write viminfo file /home/micha/.viminfo!" [00:18] michagogo, gksudo gedit [00:18] * [Saint] wonders how other people, if at all, work around the whole "encrypted home and key based ssh authentication with password disabled" thing [00:18] squinty: Huh? *inside* an LXC? [00:18] michagogo: the sudo shell environment [00:19] <[Saint]> I'm using a fairly simply script in my unencrypted ~ in .sshrc [00:19] TJ-: right now I'm in `sudo lxc-attach` [00:19] <[Saint]> is there a better way to manage automatically decrypting home with ssh key based login? [00:19] [Saint]: easily :) [00:19] michagogo, didn't realize you were using lxc [00:19] squinty: Yeah, I'm trying to figure out sshing into a fresh lxc... [00:20] <[Saint]> TJ-: let me guess "don't use encrypted ~"? ;) [00:21] [Saint]: /etc/ssh/sshd_config has "AuthorizedKeysFile /etc/ssh/authorized_keys.d/%u" ... and you create the directory and then put the file at /etc/ssh/authorized_keys.d/$USER [00:21] <[Saint]> TJ-: I think you're misunderstanding the problem. [00:21] <[Saint]> If I wasn't doing that I wouldn't even be able to initiate the connection. [00:22] <[Saint]> What I aim to do is decrypt ~ automatically. [00:22] <[Saint]> which for some inexplicable reason doesn't happen for ssh key based login with password disabled. [00:23] [Saint]: that's how it's done. As long as the authorized_keys is *outside* the $HOME then when the user does key-based log-in the pam_ecryptfs module will unlock and mount the $USERs ecryptfs [00:23] [Saint]: all my systems have been configured that way for many years, without any problems [00:24] When I look at the container with lxc-info/lxc-ls, I see it appears to have 2 IP addresses, 10.0.3.1 and 10.0.3.196 [00:24] When I lxc-attach to the container, both of those addresses seem to point to the container [00:24] <[Saint]> TJ-: on my servers it doesn't actually decrypt and this needs to be handled by the user - I suspect you're using *buntu Desktop, yes? [00:24] On the host, .1 points to the host, and .196 says "no route to host". [00:25] [Saint]: server [00:25] [Saint]: decryption and mounting is done by pam_ecryptfs once the user has authenticated [00:25] [Saint]: have you altered the PAM config? [00:26] [Saint]: amongst other entries the important one is "/etc/pam.d/common-auth:auth optional pam_ecryptfs.so unwrap" [00:26] Anyone got any ideas? [00:33] michagogo: what version of host? [00:33] <[Saint]> TJ-: Appears to be https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ecryptfs-utils/+bug/364015 [00:33] Launchpad bug 364015 in ecryptfs-utils (Ubuntu) "Support a wrapped-passphrase.ssh, wrapped with an ssh private key" [Wishlist,Won't fix] [00:33] <[Saint]> marked as WONTFIX [00:33] nacc: trusty [00:33] michagogo: also, #lxcontainers may be a better place to ask [00:33] michagogo: on xenial, with a random container, i don't see that with `lxc list` [00:34] nacc: In the past (and now) I've tried a bunch of times, that channel seems mostly inactive [00:34] michagogo: are you using lxd? [00:34] No [00:34] What's lxd? [00:34] :( [00:35] michagogo: ah not available in trusty anyways [00:35] michagogo: well, it's like a container hypervisor. But basically lets you do `lxc launch ubuntu:xenial` and it spits out a container name running xenial [00:36] and you can then just do `lxc exec bash` and you're in [00:36] no need for sudo, etc [00:36] the images are maintained on linuxcontainers.org, iirc, and cached locally [00:36] michagogo: might be a reason to setup a xenial environment on its own, if you're really interested in containers [00:36] Well, not sure that's an option... [00:37] At this point I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to get https://github.com/devrandom/gitian-builder/blob/master/README.md to work with LXC in what seems to me to be the "correct" way [00:37] michagogo: there's also #lxc-dev, but you might get mocked for asking for support in a dev channel (but then again you coudl say no response in the support channel) [00:37] That is, treating the container like a VM -- starting, stopping, SSHing in, etc [00:38] michagogo: right, lxd is a backend for lxc, basically [00:38] so if lxd is running, you use lxc as client side interction still [00:38] but in any case [00:38] (right now, the LXC support there basically hacks together a rootfs that can sort of pass for an LXC, but breaks fairly often, and seems to be broken on xenial) [00:39] <[Saint]> So, instead of my convoluted workaround with sshrc, would doing something like this in the unencrypted user's .bash_login be "better"? [00:39] <[Saint]> http://pastebin.com/Cm0vzCFF [00:39] michagogo: sounds like a support question for this project, no? [00:40] michagogo: that projects home page can't be reached by me, i'll assume something buggy. [00:40] nacc: well, there isn't really much support. It's pretty small. My idea was to see if I can figure out how to take the flow used for KVM builders and adapt that for "LXC-as-a-VM" [00:40] So at this point I'm just trying to figure out how LXC works [00:40] i think it's a bad idea to even think of LXC as a VM :) [00:40] nacc: I don't mean as a VM [00:40] I mean, working with it like you would with a VM [00:41] i.e. creating it with the proper tools, starting and stopping it, and connecting into it, rather than debootstrapping into a file and tricking lxc-execute into running scripts in that environment [00:42] But I can't seem to get as far as being able to create a container, start it, and SSH into it... [00:42] michagogo: i unfortunately don't have a trusty environment around right now [00:43] Anyway, it's 3:42 AM here. I think I'm going to call it a night, probably just throw away what I've tried at this point and maybe try again from scratch in my clean Trusty Sandbox VM at some point in the future [00:43] michagogo: what have you tried to do, sorry? [00:43] nacc: I lxc-created a container [00:43] I lxc-started it [00:44] And I can;t figure out what I need to do in order to be able to ssh into it from the host [00:44] michagogo: did you try: https://linuxcontainers.org/lxc/getting-started/ [00:44] nacc: yeah, I saw that [00:45] michagogo: that's where i'd start, in particular the bridge setup [00:45] I created a privileged container with the ubuntu template (not download) [00:45] michagogo: a container shouldn't have two IPs generally, and it definitely shouldn't have one be a gateway IP [00:45] at least, i'd find that surprising [00:46] nacc: the only thing I see on that page regarding bridge setup is the file that lets a user account create veth devices [00:46] michagogo: if you want to try to get it working again later, ping me and i will spin up a trusty VM [00:47] michagogo: from a general ease-of-use thing, though, i'd really recommend trying lxd [00:47] <[Saint]> TJ-: I have to ask - but, you're not just saying "it works" after having already unwrapped the encrypted home at some point with a local login, are you? I honestly can't see any way for this flow of ssh+encrypted home+key based auth+password login disabled to work with an encrypted home and every bug I can dig up on the topic basically writes it off as wontfix.

[01:46] It takes args SOURCE and a 1 or 0 [01:47] Something like: [01:47] pactl suspend-source [YOUR MIC] 0 [01:48] YOU MIC can be defined (according to the man page) by its symbolic name or numeric index, which you can find in your pactl pastebin [01:48] got another problem with 16.04 or some reason my top menu bar fonts look thinner than normal fonts [01:48] you mean in "Name"?

I've used other various utilities in Windows and they only report it as 7.4GB. How do I reclaim the rest of the space? [01:56] I just tried to run software updater and it just hangs . . . upwards of 30 minutes [01:57] Sorry, hid|ninja, I'm out of ideas. Hopefully you can figure it out, maybe drop by tommorrow when more people are on (midday)? [01:57] destinydriven, try apt-get update instead. [01:57] Blakes5, tried that . . it hangs there too [01:57] destinydriven: There is a bug in appstream [01:57] yes thanks precise [01:57] i'll come later :> [01:57] np hid|ninja [01:57] precise, oh that's a bug? === asteroid435w is now known as joh45op3 [01:58] Blakes5, I heard that there are some rogue cards around [01:58] destinydriven: Ithttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/0.9.4-1ubuntu1 [01:58] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/0.9.4-1ubuntu1 [01:58] forgot_my_name, this is a known working card. It was reporting 64GB before I imaged it. [01:58] The patch is currently in the propsed repo, to be pushed out soon [01:59] destinydriven^ [01:59] so no workaround? [01:59] Work around is to uninstall appstream [01:59] sudo apt remove appstream [01:59] apt-get update isn't working for me [01:59] ok === asteroid435w is now known as joh45op3 [01:59] then reinstall appstream when they send out the fix [01:59] pretending I know why I need appstream . .. . [01:59] ok cool [02:00] appstream is optional, so really you don't even need it [02:00] ok great [02:00] let me reboot and do that === asteroid435w is now known as joh45op3 [02:02] precise, that sorted it out, thanks [02:02] nop destinydriven [02:02] *np [02:03] :D [02:04] ok so . . . ubuntu center == apstream? cuz that just disappeared on me [02:04] I think I remember now, I used DD to write an image to the SD card. Any idea how to recover the missing space? [02:05] hi , how to unzip in ubuntu via command for somezip_1of2.zip and somezip_2of2.zip ? [02:05] anyone? [02:05] i have 2 zip file [02:05] Hulio: unzip -l foo [02:05] unzip foo.zip [02:05] unzip -d newdir foo.zip [02:05] the first file ? [02:05] Hulio: if it's split into volumes, the first should suffice [02:05] blake5: heheheheheh..... DD may be a bitch if you dont treat her with attention [02:05] rarely it is the last instead of the first [02:06] oh [02:06] and some archive formats are smart enough to know regardless which volume you point at [02:06] let me try [02:06] Hulio: although if it's a ZIP, it might just be two entirely separate archives [02:06] forgot_my_name, well, it worked. I think it just didn't worry about the rest of the space. [02:06] as ZIP is a popular format among the ignorant :D [02:06] destinydriven: yeah, not permanent though, just reinstall appstream when they push the patch out. [02:06] forgot_my_name, if I had a 64GB image of something I guess I could use DD to write it to the SD card but I don't know where I would get something like that or how to create it. [02:07] precise, ok I see [02:07] blake5 and you want to get the space back in a "non destructive" way? [02:07] forgot_my_name, oh, I don't care what's on the card. I'm trying to repurpose it [02:08] Blakes5, what about gparted? [02:08] I actually have another 64GB card in my phone that is partitioned for 64GB. I guess I could clone that with DD. [02:08] forgot_my_name, gparted only sees 7.4gb [02:08] hi [02:08] Hi, I'm having trouble network troubles with my install of 16.04. I can't install packages, and I can't ping outside servers. I'm currently logged in remotely though. I think there is some sort of DNS trouble. Any ideas? [02:09] Is anyone else having trouble installing Ubuntu 16.04 due to appstream issues? [02:09] Blakes5, weird [02:10] reisio, man, unzip -l file.zip is only listing [02:10] i need to extra brother [02:10] El_Chapo, yes. Appstream is not required and you can uninstall as a work around if you'd like. [02:10] Datz, I think you might be having the same issue as me. It's not DNS it's something to do with appstreamcli [02:11] damn...gotta go [02:11] bye [02:11] humm, I see [02:11] The patch is in the proposed repository, and planned to be rolled out into stable eventually. [02:11] This is what I'm getting trying to install a package : http://hastebin.com/iwozasesig.vhdl [02:11] Hulio: it's important to do -l first to make sure it won't dump contents all over your cwd === darthbhy_around is now known as darthbhyrava [02:12] reisio, nevermind, i was able to double click the file [02:12] and drag outside the folder :) [02:12] i use GUI [02:12] Datz: I can ping the mirrors, it is probably on your end.

[02:13] guys [02:13] my apt is not working [02:13] its stuck [02:13] any ideas? [02:14] Ali1: Known bug, to be patched shortly. [02:14] Ali1: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/0.9.4-1ubuntu1 [02:14] Uninstalling appstream is a workaround, but you will lose your software center [02:14] Datz, can you pastbin the output of: [02:15] cat /etc/resolv.conf [02:15] Ali1: See: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2325168&page=2 . There are other work-a-rounds . [02:16] Bashing-om: Isn't that the same workaround? [02:16] Bashing-om, so should I wait for them to fix ? [02:17] precise: Getting help in -server let you know if I get it working. Thanks. [02:17] precise: Yes and no " sudo pkill appstreamcli " in another terminal . [02:18] NP Datz [02:18] precise, should I wait [02:18] ? [02:18] Patience Ali1 [02:18] ok [02:18] Ali1: Depends on the need , You can bet the fix will be in place rather quickly . [02:18] Bashing-om, doesn't that just end the process? [02:19] well DD is working on the SD card....we'll see..... [02:19] What's quick? Hours, Day ,Week? [02:19] El_Chapo, for a patch? [02:19] yeah [02:20] precise: Yes ,, the " sudo apt remove appstream " seems to be the more popular . [02:20] Bashing-om, actually I am trying install fresh ubuntu [02:21] and its stuck here [02:21] Bashing-om: I'm not saying your wrong, but everytime someone comes in here, I say "sudo apt remove appstream" I just want to be sure I am giving the proper advice that's all. [02:21] Ali1: Are you installing ubuntu currently or is this just recently installed? [02:22] currently installing [02:22] removed ubuntu due to apt update stuck problem [02:22] but turns out its stuck in installing fresh aswel [02:22] precise: You do good . If there were a problem .. many here watch and will be quick to correct .. Ya gotta love this channel . [02:23] Ali1: You re-installed because you couldn't apt update/upgrade? [02:23] Bashing-om: Oh good :) [02:23] yea precise [02:23] now how to make it install [02:23] Its stuck [02:23] in retrieving file step [02:24] Restart install without an internet connection, uninstall appstream on first boot. [02:24] but dont u think updates are essential during installation? [02:25] Ali1: see The Cogs' solution : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2325168&page=2 . [02:25] or I can get the same updates after installation? [02:25] ok [02:25] Ali1: Yes, but by reinstalling while the appstream bug is active, your install will hang permanently [02:25] You can get updates after install [02:25] precise, it will be same as I could with internet connection right? [02:25] or I will miss out something? [02:26] Where do I find the HowTo to let one's KUbuntu install listen for incoming remoteX connections from localhost? Ideally I'd like to listen only on localhost as it's always from an SSH tunnel (eg: ssh -x , then xeyes) (xposted to #kubuntu, but it's quiet in there currently) [02:26] Ali1: You can connect to the internet after install and run apt update/upgrade to get what you missed out. [02:26] oh ok [02:26] so nothing is missed then right [02:26] Bashing-om: He is actually in the middle of installing ubuntu. [02:26] thanks :) [02:26] coz I dont wanna re install again after the bug is fixed [02:27] to get what I missed out during installation due to internet connection [02:27] Bashing-om: The appstream bug causes the apt update to hang, even during first install. [02:28] Ali1: You generally don't have to reinstall Ubuntu too much, just make sure to research the problem and drop by here. [02:28] Ali1: It takes quite a bit to bork the OS [02:28] precise: Yes .. on a fresh install is where that bug 1st reard it's head . " So then I tried to install without downloading updates as it went. The install worked, but a post-install apt-get update hung, again with appstreamcli stuck at 100% CPU." .

I bought a domain called foo.com and the hostname for the server is mail. So would I enter mail.foo.com as the server name in my client application? [06:29] yosefh: what chipset is it? [06:30] nexii: Sounds correct, yes [06:30] hateball, http://pastebin.com/rCKTdNuY [06:30] lots of info there [06:30] liuxu: 14.04 has quite old nvidia drivers, and you have a recent chipset. Either upgrade to 16.04, or use https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa to get to at least 361 [06:31] liuxu: for new installs, 16.04 is recommended. No guarantee that it will fix your problem, but at least you'll have two years worth of kernel improvements. [06:31] hateball, iwlwifi-7260 [06:32] yosefh: Hmmm. I have the same chipset at home, and I've not had any issues. Sadly at work now so I can't look at my setup in detail [06:33] hateball, anyway to reset it all? [06:33] hateball, other than "just reinstall" [06:34] yosefh: is the linux-firmware pacakge still installed? [06:34] hateball,Seveas，ok，thanks~ [06:34] yosefh: I don't quite know. afaik the intel firmware is in linux-firmware [06:34] yosefh: so you could try apt-get install --reinstall linux-firmware [06:34] hateball: it is [06:34] Seveas, possibly not but I still have ethernet [06:35] Seveas, also your name looks kind of familiar [06:35] yosefh: try the command hateball gave [06:35] ok === Nobita1- is now known as Dorami-Doraemon [06:35] Seveas, Ive done kernel upgrades since then, wouildnt it have the same effect [06:35] I've been in here for almost 12 years, so you might have seen me before :-) [06:36] yosefh: possibly, but if some file got corrupt, and the firmware package isn't updated, an update won't help === john is now known as Guest54857 [06:36] a reinstall of that package is simple and safe [06:37] Seveas, ok doing so now [06:37] Seveas, done [06:37] try rebooting to see if it now comes up properly. [06:38] Hi, I'm trying to pci-stub one of my USB controllers to passthrough to a VM. It works with my GPU but I can't get the USB controller to stub [06:39] brb [06:39] Does anyone know what might be going on or an alternate method of passing through a usb controller? [06:41] Keeps saying failed to run init ucode [06:41] whenever kernel starts [06:41] hi all. is there any problemtoday with ubuntu servers? [06:41] yosefh: rats. That probably means an error communicating with the wifi chip then :( [06:41] Seveas, did you see the logs i posted [06:42] I did, but was hoping it was just broken firmware on disk, and not an error actually talking to the chip. [06:42] 'cause I have no idea how to debug that [06:44] Seveas, thanks for trying [06:44] Is there any problem today with ubuntu servers? plz help. [06:45] akis: 'ubuntu servers' means absolutely nothing. What's the problem you have? [06:45] Probably something to do with the repositories taking ages to update [06:46] Guest97344: that means a bit more, but very little. There are tons of mirrors, and most people also blame problems random 3rd party repos on "ubuntu servers" :) [06:47] Something always is blocking apt after i bootup in xenial, what can this be? i already killed aptd and deleted /var/lib/dpkg/lock but now it complains that /var/lib/apt/lists/lock is there === IndigoTi- is now known as IndigoTiger === anicorescu is now known as vanda [06:48] hello all [06:48] de-facto: sudo lsof | grep /var/lib/apt/lists/lock [06:48] I am using the raspberry pi 2 with Ubuntu mate [06:48] Hi howdy [06:49] I port forwarded my ssh port on my ubuntusetver on vb, and was wondering how i find out the external ip address i need to connect to it from a different network [06:50] how do [06:50] yosefh: havent accidentally disabled wifi with hardware switch either? [06:51] hateball, so yeah it seems like something that might have happend based ont he logs but my hardware switch isnt physical. So I couldnt even if i wanted to [06:51] hateball: I don't think that would prevent host <-> chip communication, that tends to just disable the radio. [06:51] Hmmm [06:51] any updates on the apt bug for Xenial? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/+bug/1583845 [06:51] Launchpad bug 1579712 in appstream (Ubuntu Xenial) "duplicate for #1583845 Refresh hangs indefinitely, appstreamcli using 100% CPU" [High,Fix committed] [06:51] yosefh: 'nmcli radio' should show you whether the radios are on or off [06:52] Seveas, jackpot (says Disabled) [06:52] how do i enable it [06:52] rfkill [06:52] WIFI-HW WIFI WWAN-HW WWAN [06:52] enabled disabled enabled enabled [06:53] sudo rfkill unblock wifi [06:53] no results [06:53] Hi I am trying to passthrough a USB controller to a VM. I cannot get pci-stub to work. It works fine with my gpu but won't stub my USB. any ideas? [06:54] I attempted to upgrade a 14.04LTS box to 16.04, and it failed in the initial stages, I don't think it upgraded anything, but now apt seems to be configured for xenial and there are 400+ updates available for the system. How can I revert that? [06:54] This appstreamcli issue is super embarrassing. [06:54] sudo rfkill unblock all enables the bluetooth but not wireless [06:54] Im out of time. Thanks for your help guys [07:03] andatche: reinstall. the upgrade path from 14.04 to 16.04 is not ready yet. [07:04] Seveas: i am trying with sudo apt-get update and cannot proceed. stops. i change server (from GR i choose main server), the system asked for ypdate, beginned udating cache and stopped. I am trying to update a fresh installation of 16.04 and the meanwhile i am writing from another notebook already 16.04 installed and cannot also finished with apt-get update. So that's why i am asking about servers. any idea? [07:07] Hi i need help passing through a USB controller to a virtual machine [07:11] Can anyone help me that has experience with pci-stub? [07:11] hi ! `apt-get update` stops w/o messages, `-o Debug::Acquire::https=true -o Debug::pkgDPkgPM=true` gives no help - last messages are '102k in 2sec'. How to debug any further ? [07:16] akis: pastebin the logs please [07:17] Seveas: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16517482/ [07:17] I can't get my usb controller to pci stub, it works fine with my gpu. Any ideas? [07:18] 4 [07:19] phucktank: repeating your question every 10 minutes is quite annoying. If someone knows, they'll help. [07:20] akis: you're saying it hangs at this point, after fetching? That means the servers are all fine, but your system has some strange issues processing what it downloaded. [07:20] akis: which would be rather odd. The only explanation I can think of is having a full disk. [07:22] Seveas: both systems? and the new installation too? with a 1T hd? both laptops has the same problem with a fresh installation on them? yesterday everything was ok. [07:22] akis: that's why I said it would be rather odd. I'm probably wrong in my guess. [07:23] maybe someone else has a better idea [07:28] Well I feel like an idiot. In case you'd like to know apparently I don't have to pcistub it like the GPU. It just passes through np [07:35] hello, on a 16.04 server, I don't get why when I'm trying to install collectl package, apt tells me that it will install a bunch of packages (including apache). I don't see those packages with apt-cache depends collectl [07:36] survietamine: the packages that collectl depends on could however depend on apache [07:37] Seveas: does this http://askubuntu.com/questions/774918/apt-get-is-stuck-at-fetched-xxkb-in-xxsec has to do with? [07:37] hateball: I doubt, only 3 dependencies: pciutils, libtime-hires-perl, libio-compress-perl. None of those packages will depend on apache2 or gnu plot.

[07:45] survietamine: k1l has just told you [07:45] ah, sorry [07:45] np [07:45] survietamine: apt-cache depends collectl tells you that it suggests coldplot. which is the one with the heavy depencies [07:46] k1l: ok, thanks, I'm a bit disappointed about the fact that my apt|apt-get install recommended packages by default. Is that new behaviour? [07:46] survietamine: if you want to turn that off in general: set APT::Get::Install-Recommends and APT::Get::Install-Suggests to false in /etc/apt/apt.conf [07:47] Hi, hope not stupid question but what's the general idea around automatically connecting to one's 'preferred' network in wpa_supplicant? say i have a network with priority 100 specified but it's not currently available so i connect to one priority 20. then my preferred one is available. how can i make it automatically connect ? so i need to write something myself ? [07:47] k1l: thanks a lot [07:47] survietamine: there is a reason for this behavior. there might now be missing some functions from the programs you install due to missing suggested packages [07:47] why apt-get update hungs at Fetched on both my systems (32 bit & 64 bit) with fresh installation of 16.04? [07:48] k1l: ok, I understand, but I have a lot of servers and each has a specific roles, I don't want all that packages like apache or so on every one of my servers [07:49] k1l: my guess is that behaviour is more useful for desktop users [07:50] survietamine: not only for desktop users. but some users might install that collectr and than wonder why that output cant be plotted or shown on the server under ip:port or such. [07:51] okay, I'm not that kind of users, so I'll disable that. Thanks again [07:51] your systems, your decisions :) [07:52] Hi!

I do not use Unity myself [09:12] plus, if they were, it would be working [09:12] (aufs is listed after the others) [09:12] Wug: read "man fstab" - there in the 1st paragraph [09:13] yes it is [09:13] The order of records in fstab is important because fsck(8), mount(8), and umount(8) sequentially iterate through fstab doing their thing, though at boot time mountall(8) [09:13] may process the file out-of-order when it believes it is safe to do so. [09:14] Wug: mine doesn't say that. Is that a 14.04 thing? [09:14] no idea. but I found a bug report about this behavior of mountall from 2009 [09:14] what version are you running? 16.04? [09:14] de-facto : checking now tc and wondershaper thanks :) [09:15] Wug: yes. Mountall is an upstart thiong so 14.04 [09:15] Wug: If you're on 14.04, I wonder if that is your problem? [09:15] any one can help to get wlan0 name back, i've changed /etc/default/grub and reboot [09:15] has 16.04 transitioned away from upstart? [09:16] Wug: yes - systemd [09:16] nbusrone i think i tried once that trickle, it worked as far as i remember, but i dont remember any details actually [09:17] the arch linux thing i read indicated that you can manually manage mount order (even at boot), and arch uses systemd [09:17] I guess I'll just upgrade sometime, thanks [09:17] Wug: there must be a way to poke mountall to do its job properly [09:19] de-facto : will report back after I tried, find the GUI version too :) [09:20] nbusrone nice, try it and tell us how it worked for you :) [09:21] Hi guys, has anyone installed Rstudio Server on Ubuntu here?

Here it is again... http://askubuntu.com/questions/22108/how-to-control-fan-speed [11:47] thanks stratos [11:48] it has more cocnfiguration.. if I install version 8 or 9 it does java home automatically [11:48] using apt get [11:48] such as JAVA_HOME [11:48] yes... I've run lm-sensors. pwmconfig fails to find any pwm capable sensors [11:48] o [11:48] k1l here is the output of my command: https://bpaste.net/show/f70177a9d477 [11:48] codfection, android studio with openjdk 6?? good luck trying that. [11:49] but when i run an apt-cache policy r-base that version shows [11:49] OerHeks, which one should I use [11:49] on 16.04? [11:49] yes [11:49] baraka: what ubuntu is it? [11:49] I had a read of the man page for fancontrol.... it implies all the management happens through pwmconfig - which isn't available on my machine. [11:49] openjdk 8 [11:49] k1l Ubuntu 14.04 - through crouton, on a chromebook [11:49] or oracle ? [11:50] openjdk or oracle ? OerHeks [11:50] baraka: there is no r-base 3.2 in the repos for 14.04 [11:50] codfection, we advise openjdk. [11:50] cool [11:50] baraka: so i guess you added a PPA? but ppas are not for ARM [11:50] I will go for that [11:50] thanks OerHeks [11:50] k1l I tried that but it didn't work [11:50] triss, Did you read the entire page and all the alternatives - and go through all the steps? [11:51] baraka: please show the output of "apt-cache policy r-base" [11:51] baraka: its very hard to get informations from you, btw [11:51] k1l I'm sorry - just a moment [11:52] yes... I haven't looked at Dell/ThinkPad specific stuff. [11:53] and the genric answer talking about pwmconfig won't work on my system. [11:54] k1l https://bpaste.net/show/2671dfd12ef6 === badon_ is now known as badon [11:55] baraka: ok. so make sure your 3rd party repos work for ARM. which i bet they dont [11:55] as pwmconfig reports: "/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed" [11:55] k1l - I don't think so [11:57] triss: I will tire folks out with this but I suspect the system has a manufacturer-installed firmware bug in its ACPI DSDT, which only activates all power functionality if it detects a Windows OS running [11:57] triss: ACPI is *the* way the firmware informs the OS about all the platform-specific bits including thermal, device enablement, etc. [11:59] thanks TJ- [11:59] I just found info about a acpi_enforce_resources=lax flag for GRUB.... [12:00] Do you think that's worth a fiddle with? https://iandw.net/2014/10/12/fancontrol-under-ubuntu-14-04-resolving-usrsbinpwmconfig-there-are-no-pwm-capable-sensor-modules-installed/ [12:00] triss: it's probably a lot more involved than that, I can give you my 'standard' fix for these things if you want to try it [12:00] From what I have experienced in the past years (like since before linux was linux)...in most instances, folks kinda forget to check something - some little thing...or they get stuck into something without taking a breather and having a looksee around to see if there might be alternatives to a particular resolution... [12:00] :) [12:00] I'd love to have a look. The fans are really distracting [12:01] triss: which Ubuntu release is that? [12:01] 16.04 [12:01] YankDownUnder, 21 years linux experience here too. [12:01] triss: OK, lets first discover which Windows versions the ACPI recognises: "pastebinit <( sudo strings /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT | grep -i windows )" [12:02] http://paste.ubuntu.com/16519649/ [12:02] &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&:)&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& [12:02] triss: we're going to identify the 'latest' which usually causes the most ACPI functionality to be enabled [12:02] having error while running android studio on 16.04 [12:02] http://paste.ubuntu.com/16519649/ [12:02] triss, so, that being said, how many times have you "overlooked" something that was actually the resolution to the issue, and spent hours and hours banging your head against the wall...hmm? :) All is good...time and patience...time and patience...those are the best tools... [12:03] is 16.04 already out? [12:03] YankDownUnder, many many times. the solution isn't on that page for me [12:03] @codfection: did you install JDK or JRE?

[12:04] @codfection: so you chose "sudo apt-get install default-jdk"? [12:04] Hope the new release works better with my pentium 6th gen [12:04] triss, therefore, the answer lies somewhere else...such as possibly the lm-sensors page...or search through Google groups...along with the obvious Ubuntu and related forums...(and Debian forums)...and the i8 related posts and etc...(i8 being the sensor shit for Dell's)...the answer is out there...somewhere... [12:04] wander_: try a liveusb and see for yourself [12:05] stratos, sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre [12:05] TD- here's the info: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16519682/ [12:05] @codfection: your should get the JDK not the JRE [12:05] triss: so "Windows 2013" looks to be the one to try [12:06] JDK = development kit with the compiler, JRE only the runtime [12:06] stratos, so bro should I remove jre or just install jdk on top of it?

[12:07] hELP THE DD COMMAND REMOVING MY HARD DRIVE CONTENTS HO WCAN I STIP IT [12:08] wander_: no caps please [12:08] codfection: JDK depends on JRE, so if you install the JDK you'll just reinstall the JRE... just install the JDK which will add the additional bits [12:08] I dont think you have dependencies on open jre 8 if you just onstalled it explicitly [12:08] wander_: ctrl+c [12:08] wander_: ctrl-c will stop it [12:08] TJ- think I had a bit too much in my grub config for that sed to work [12:08] Sorry hw do i stop ssh someone into my pc and he is removing things [12:08] local network [12:08] stratos: I meant if the user wants -jdk -jdk "Depends:" on the -jre [12:08] unfortunately, it may be too late; I did that on 16.04 release day and it took about 10 minutes for the computer to crash, even after stopping the dd after about 4 MB of writes [12:08] triss: can you "pastebinit /etc/default/grub" ? === _joes__ is now known as joes [12:09] here's greps output: [12:09] http://paste.ubuntu.com/16519746/ [12:09] stratos, and TJ. sorry I am quite confused. to remove or not. hehe [12:09] I think I need to remove the acpi_osi=!Windows 2012 first [12:09] what exactly should my GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX* options be? [12:10] if you remove it then the JDK may reinstall it as a dependency -- no problem [12:11] triss: ahhh, can you manually remove the acpi_osi entry for GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT ? that won't help; in fact that wouldn't have had any effect anyhow [12:11] triss: because there's a space in the string it has to be surrounded by double-quotes when the kernel sees it, which is why you'll see my additional has \" useed inside the variable assignment string [12:14] Can anyone help me install wifislax on Ubuntu 16 [12:14] triss: once you've made that change you can do "sudo update-grub" which writes it to /boot/grub/grub.cfg, and do a reboot and see if the fan gets better behaved, and if you can use pwmcontrol etc. Once you reboot ensure the kernel has the option on its command-line with "cat /proc/cmdline" *and* it took with "dmesg | grep _OSI" which should report ACPI: Added _OSI(Windows 2013) [12:14] ginabot: doesnt seem like its in the repos === GodFather_ is now known as GodFather [12:15] http://wifislax.en.uptodown.com/ubuntu [12:16] ginabot: only ubuntu support here sorry [12:16] I see ok === GodFather is now known as GodFodder [12:18] <_ugg> H guys...

[12:42] bsdnoob: i am quite sure the page i linked tells exactly what to do [12:43] yeah kil [12:43] My proxy is set [12:43] but it does not works [12:43] I have to manually download deb files from curl [12:43] :( [12:43] bsdnoob: you need to set apt-get to use that proxy like mentioned in the page i linkde [12:43] *linked [12:44] k1l , again [12:44] it is set [12:44] how exactly? [12:45] k1l, using env variable http_proxy [12:45] and /etc/apt/apt.conf reads Acquire::http::Proxy "http://172.18.10.1:3128"; [12:45] does the poxy need authentification? [12:46] is it safe to re-install appstream now and should I even want to do that? [12:46] ki1 , no [12:46] it's a simple squid proxy [12:46] curl works [12:46] but not apt-get [12:47] bsdnoob: the export http... doesnt work since its only using your user [12:47] yeah [12:47] but apt.conf should work [12:48] and it does't :( [12:48] TJ-, my fans still run loud... the command line took.... and ACPI did add Windows 2013 but I also info about a firmware bug: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16520253/ [12:49] pwmconfig still tells me there are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed. [12:49] any thoughts? [12:51] bsdnoob: are you sure the server is up? [12:52] I have user in group sudo, and line '%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL' in sudoers. But when I do 'user$ sudo blah' it says 'user not in sudoers file'. How come? [12:52] k1l , yes it is up [12:52] again curl is works fine [12:53] oh hang on there are a lot of ACPI warnings in dmesg's output - here's the output of dmesg | grep ACPI: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16520337/ [12:53] Habbie, Were you the one who answered me yesterday, about MM keyboard ? :) [12:54] lelapin, i think so [12:54] I have user in group sudo, and line '%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL' in sudoers. But when I do 'user$ sudo blah' it says 'user not in sudoers file'. How come? [12:55] Habbie, I wanted to thank you to make me find a workaround. I was too much "inside the box" and you gave me the track. :) [12:55] lelapin, yay [12:55] yay "sudo apt upgrade" can make the GUI freeze for minutes, making the system totally unresponsive, good design! :( [12:56] Hello every one [12:56] hello [12:56] de-facto: that isn't right [12:56] snfgf: do sudo nano /etc/sudoers [12:57] ubuntu software center in xenial xerus more slower, right? Or just me experience it? [12:57] triss: that's a pain! what make/model is the system? maybe you could post the entire "pastebinit <( dmesg )" output? [12:57] de-facto: its just consumes 100% cpu but hopefully you have more than one cpu :) [12:57] nope maybe one core but not all [12:57] argon__, I am not in sudoers, it says [12:58] I can su -, to root, and then edit [12:58] snfgf: near the end of the file (along with root) put snfgf ALL=(ALL) ALL [12:59] Habbie, I used the keyboards setting to capture the MM keys and do "audacious --play-pause" and other stuff. ;) But Do you know if there's a way to ask audacity to go farther (a few seconds) or earlier inside the same track as it is available on keybord ? Nothing on man audacious neither on the website about this (or I wasn't able to find the info). ;/ [12:59] i guess its processing some triggers for 76 MB ( !!! ) fonts?! "fonts-noto-cjk", but still freezing the WHOLE GUI for that? thats bad design [12:59] lelapin, don't know that, sorry [12:59] thanks TJ- entire dmesg output is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16520429/ [12:59] argon__, thanks [12:59] just double checking make and model number... it's not printed on my machine anywhere!

Without guest addition it's fine [13:55] try command startx [13:56] terminal92: I'm greeted with a black screen and unable to switch to other VTs by Host+F1-F6 [13:56] Sakami: there is also a #vbox channel [13:56] TJ-, sorry to keep hassling you about this but you've been a star. My BIOS was already up to date.... do you have any other thoughts? [13:57] yes just moved over to hexchat, looks pretty good. [13:57] triss: best to re-ask your issue to the chat, all in one line with all details once in a while [13:58] thanks lotuspsychje - I'll pull it all together and type it up. [13:58] triss: I'm afraid not; there were no additional clues in the dmesg output and you've enabled Linux to masquarade as Windows, so the only explanation is that the system's ACPI DSDT code is actually requring something else from the OS, such as a specific function call to enable things, which presumably only a system-specfic Windows driver knows about [13:58] triss: the cause is, I'm 100% confident, in the ACPI activity of the firmware, since that is the bit responsible for this functionality [13:59] triss: the fan is running constantly because the OS hasn't said to the ACPI DSDT "OK, I've got control now, so I can lower the speed unless temperatures increase" [13:59] I've removed nginx using apt remove and then removed /etc/init.d/nginx and /etc/nginx etc by hand. Now when I apt install nginx again it installs nginx but doesn tcreate the default folders and init scripts again :s any idea? [14:00] that's a shame... so really I'm waiting for kernel devs to build something really? [14:00] where would one log an issue about something like this? [14:00] triss: didnt follow the thread, but did you try a higher kernel like 4.6 yet? [14:01] hmmm... might have a go... it's been years since i needed to build my own kernel... [14:01] Aye [14:01] I have a question for you guys [14:01] !mainline | triss you dont need to [14:01] triss you dont need to: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [14:02] thanks guys. You've all been super helpful. [14:02] triss: the device isn't doing what is expected, and it would seem likely HP have written code specifically for Windows drivers and not published any info about that so Linux cannot do anything [14:02] SO i had 14.04 LTS and i updated to 16.04 and it came up as a console [14:02] !ltsupgrade | whatas [14:02] whatas: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. [14:02] triss: you could try hammering HP support until you get to someone that really knows, in 3rd level support maybe! [14:03] whatas: its not recommended yet [14:03] Ok yeah [14:03] I just flashed my drive [14:03] and reinstalled windows [14:03] whatas: try a clean install if you cant wait? [14:03] Ill wait [14:04] Thanks guys! [14:04] Take care [14:05] TJ- ah ok man... I'll log a fault with them and see if there forthcoming with any info. [14:05] Whenever a new version rolls out I just clean install; so, out of curiosity... how well do upgrades work? Does stuff and packages tend to break? [14:05] You're pretty sure a fix won't be in newer kernels yet? [14:05] brunch875: upgrades work nicely, it its time to upgrade [14:06] triss: TJ- left [14:06] triss: i advise you test a higher kernel, to make sure its not related for your case [14:06] ok thanks man. I'll give it a go. [14:07] brunch875: wich upgrade are you willing to try? [14:07] Oh no, I always clean install as soon as it's out [14:07] was just a matter of curiosity since I never upgrade [14:07] triss: at the end of the day you probably need to talk to hp, and they are *horrible* at stuff like this. [14:08] !upgrade | brunch875 check here [14:08] brunch875 check here: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [14:08] ducase - this makes me really sad. You'd have thought they'd be super keen to get Linux support going by now. === alex__ is now known as Mr_Red [14:09] triss: they could care less, unfortunately. i'm never buying hp again. [14:09] I want to get debootstrab deb file for xenial (I'm not running Xenial) http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/all/debootstrap/download Now I want to check that the SHA256sum matches the Ubuntu GPG key. How do I do that? [14:09] hi [14:10] Where is there a SHA256SUMS file that includes the debootstrap deb package? [14:11] Lope, scroll down that page [14:11] I've removed nginx using apt remove and then removed /etc/init.d/nginx and /etc/nginx etc by hand. Now when I apt install nginx again it installs nginx but doesn tcreate the default folders and init scripts again :s any idea? [14:11] OerHeks: I did, there's nothing about GPG signed stuff there? [14:12] sha256checksum, yes there is [14:12] hey [14:12] OerHeks: you need to educate yourself on what a GPG signed checksum is. [14:12] Lope: tone down please [14:13] I have a system running 16.04. Sometimes, when trying to shut it down, it just hangs endlessly. Any idea how to fix that? [14:13] Systemd just prints "Reached target Shutdown" and then nothing happens [14:13] lotuspsychje: okay, sorry. [14:13] mort: does a sudo halt -p shutdown properly? [14:13] don't know, I generally use sudo shutdown -h now [14:13] hey guys, I have an issue with dependency issues with mysql 5.6 and I don't know how to solve it [14:13] I tried to purge mysql* [14:13] and reinstall [14:13] but it didn't help [14:13] and now I get this: http://pastebin.com/5zAwn3jv [14:13] and when I try to install again I get this: http://pastebin.com/K1svVqMz [14:14] hmmmm.... am I right in thinking there's no 4.6 mainline kernel for xenial yet? [14:14] http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D [14:14] is there any reason to believe halt -p will behave differently than shutdown -h ? [14:14] hey guys, I have an issue with dependency issues with mysql 5.6 and I don't know how to solve it. I tried to purge mysql* and reinstall but it didn't help and now I get this: http://pastebin.com/5zAwn3jv. And when I try to install again I get this: http://pastebin.com/K1svVqMz [14:15] triss: you can use the 4.6 wily one for example [14:15] oh ok... I'll give that a try [14:15] try autoremove and reinstall [14:15] mort: Since they are both symlinks to systemctl, not really [14:15] mort: try if it works, also F1 to see text on shutdown perhaps? [14:17] f1 does nothing, but the way I know it just hangs at "Reached target Shutdown" is that I removed the splash kernel option in grub [14:17] Where is there a SHA256SUMS file that includes all of the deb packages? === alberto is now known as Guest95414 [14:20] Mr_Red: I've tried autoremove, autoclean, -f install purge, yeah right about everything [14:21] Hello everyone === Drac0 is now known as Guest71277 === Mr_Red is now known as [Mr_Red]OFF [14:22] mort: is this similar for you? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1464917 [14:22] Launchpad bug 1464917 in systemd (Ubuntu) "reboot hangs at 'Reached target Shutdown'" [High,Fix released] === gms is now known as Guest229 [14:23] enoch85: did you purge all ppa's with ppapurge first? [14:23] MonkeyDust: good afternoon [14:23] shutdown hanging at "Reached target Shutdown" certainly seems like my case [14:24] How can I connect Jack and Firefox and be able to hear the sound of Youtube, while Jack is running? [14:24] though it's not clear if it happens every time he tries to shut down or just sometimes; for me it's only sometimes [14:24] Youtube doesn't work if Jack is running... [14:24] also, according to that, it's fixed in vivid, I'm running xenial and have the issue [14:25] mort: was your 16.04 a clean install or upgrade? [14:25] clean install [14:25] lotuspsychje hi [14:25] wait, no, upgrade from 15.10 [14:25] my bad [14:25] I could try to reinstall 16.04 [14:26] mort: you can update the bug first, add your experience [14:26] lotuspsychje: no I didn't [14:26] alright, will do [14:26] mort: some 15.10 and 16.04 reported to be affected also on this bug [14:26] lotuspsychje: would that change anything? [14:27] enoch85: yes ppapurge removes ppa's & packages aswell [14:27] ubuntu honestly seems to have an annoying amount of these relatively small bugs [14:27] enoch85: try to set your repos back to original and sudo apt-get update after [14:27] lotuspsychje: thanks, will try [14:28] mort: you could try a 16.04 liveusb, and compare with your current upgrade [14:28] lotuspsychje: right now I'm trying to update to xenial without mysql, and then install a fresh mysql in the new system [14:29] lotuspsychje: everything started to fail when I was about to update... and it was like 4 months since I did the last update [14:29] enoch85: upgrade from wich version? [14:29] 14.04 [14:29] lotuspsychje: [14:30] !ltsupgrade | enoch85 [14:30] enoch85: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. [14:30] the problem with trying a live usb is that it only happens now and then, so there's no guarantee I would detect the issue even if it existed by just trying to shutdown a few times [14:30] When I install Ubuntu it asks for LVM. What is that? Should I check it? [14:30] !lvm | ArabicSoap [14:30] ArabicSoap: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [14:31] lotuspsychje: but ubntu 16.04 is already released... I uphraded several of my servers already [14:31] ArabicSoap LVM means logical volume manager [14:31] enoch85: thats the the LTS way mate [14:31] not [14:31] Can questions be asked that relate to programs installed on ubuntu (post install) or is it unbuntu only? [14:31] mika2: if your main Os is ubuntu sure [14:32] cool thx [14:32] MonkeyDust: so should I check it? Will the system run better? [14:33] ArabicSoap 'better' depends on what you prefer ... read the links ubottu sent you [14:33] ArabicSoap with lvm you can more easily resize partitions [14:35] hey all...curious which if any GIT front-end you would recommend? [14:35] learning the command line git client is valuable === julien is now known as Guest46216 [14:36] mort, yep, i know...long time command line SVN user...just curious on the front end though. [14:36] Well, my problem is : I just installed OpenOffice and everything went smooth afaik, except that when I launch the executable (/opt/OpenOffice4/program/soffice shell script (if i pick the .bin file it returns an error)) it opens the file with gedit instead of launching the application [14:37] mika2 make it executable, in the permissons [14:37] or properties, rather [14:38] hi there - could anyone help me with touchpad issue ? namely if i close my system having touchpad disabled, on next startup it will assume that it is still disabled, even though my hardware button shows its enabled === julien_ is now known as Guest52080 [14:38] so now when i press the hardware button it toggles the system state for touchpad also [14:38] so i basically lose touchpad [14:39] MonkeyDust : the thing is the properties panel is all grayed out. i'm guessing there's no option left but to do this via terminal? [14:39] mika2: you can make that executable by this command : chmod +x [14:39] in some older version of ubuntu it could be solved by keyboard settings and removing shortcut, but it sin't there now (16.04) and i have no idea if and how to do that by cli [14:40] hi guys! [14:40] mika2: for example : chmod +x /opt/OpenOffice4/program/soffice [14:41] Im having a problem and could not find solution [14:41] Welastevil: what problem? [14:41] E: Syntax error /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00aptitude:3: Extra junk at end of file [14:41] lotuspsychje: so you mean that I shouldn't upgrade manually to a new LTS release? [14:41] right! i'll try that! what's the extension for a shell script file? .sh? it doesn't say [14:41] I can not download NOTHING directly from ubunt software [14:42] Welastevil: what have you done to break it [14:42] Welastevil: what is the error you get [14:42] nNo idea//// [14:42] enoch85: its your system, i dont need to say what you have to do..but from 14.04 its not recommended yet [14:42] Welastevil: rfer this link : http://askubuntu.com/questions/492320/how-to-solve-extra-junk-at-end-of-file-syntax-error-in-01autoremove-kernels [14:42] lotuspsychje: darnit, that explains alot [14:43] enoch85: espacially for server production, you should stick to 14.04 [14:43] lotuspsychje: well, to late... I noticed several bug actually on my production system [14:43] mika2: most shell script's extensions is .sh [14:44] but I will build a new server soon so I guess I will have to install everything from scratch again...*siiigh* [14:44] I tryed the commands sugested thete [14:44] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [14:44] lotuspsychje: or do you think that the errors will be fixed in the newer versions? [14:44] and got the same error [14:45] enoch85: 16.04.1 will fix alot im sure [14:45] E: Syntax error /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00aptitude:3: Extra junk at end of file [14:45] lotuspsychje: ok, so no need to reinstall then? [14:45] lotuspsychje: I mean, will there be repair steps and stuff? [14:45] Welastevil: this command've tried? : sudo /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal [14:45] enoch85: your the boss of your machine... [14:46] lotuspsychje: what would you do? [14:46] enoch85: i would only have 1 server test machine with 16.04 and all the rest for production, stay on 14.04 [14:46] lotuspsychje: makes sense [14:46] enoch85: then use the xenial testserver to test stuff [14:47] Hola [14:47] yes... [14:47] and have the same error [14:47] enoch85: on 16.04.1 release your servers can get a 'safer' upgrade [14:47] lotuspsychje: ok, fine.. Iäll do that, but what about the original issue.

When I wrote the image last time, I did it from another ubuntu installation, this time I was using Rufus on windows and I notice that you have to change the partition scheme. Thanks for your help. [15:53] theseb start with more details about the freezes, symptoms, which stage of the install process etc [15:55] MonkeyDust: at end it says "retreiving file 56 of 56" and never finishes that [15:55] MonkeyDust: thanks btw === thms_ is now known as thms === thms is now known as thms_wor === thms_wor is now known as thms_work === assad is now known as Queensalyer === Queensalyer is now known as Queenslayer [15:59] Question for the channel, what would you guys suggest I run if I wanted to do virtual machines on a headless ubuntu 16.04 server? [15:59] FrankFromHR vagrant / virtualbox [15:59] KVM, LXC, Virtualbox, VMware .. lots of choise [15:59] MonkeyDust: is it possible to install virtualbox without installing X11?

[16:05] I want to access it remotely on a VPS, but the config is requring SSH tunneling [16:05] I have a fresh install of Ubuntu Server 16.04 and am getting 401 Unauthorized errors whenever I try to do an apt-get update (or any thing on the web, actually). As far as I can tell I am not behind a proxy. Any suggestions on steps to resolve? [16:06] rjonesx: not recommended to not use ssh tunneling [16:06] MonkeyDust: sorry irc died...any ideas on hints of 16.04 install issues? [16:06] !vnc | rjonesx [16:06] rjonesx: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX [16:07] nicomachus? [16:07] Though it seems to work fine for https.... [16:07] Sagar: checking. you might also try #ubuntu-server, FYI [16:07] no one replies in there [16:07] tried already [16:07] hello [16:07] Sagar, i couln't find any logic for that, seems like a PAM issue [16:07] PAM? [16:07] theseb not really, repeat the question and details in the channel [16:08] Hi [16:08] pam - Pluggable Authentication Module [16:08] MonkeyDust: Thanks I'll have a look at Vagrant [16:09] theseb: try the live mode for ubuntu, and try an install from there? [16:09] On Ubuntu 16.04 my laptop looses control of its fans, it only turns them off or maxes them out. This issue isn't present on 15.10. Any ideas? It's incredibly obnoxious and disruptive. [16:09] theseb: and perhaps disable updates from setup [16:10] lotuspsychje: did that many times.....EVERY time I install 16.04 on this old HP desktop it freezes at "Retreiving file 56 of 56"..I disabled updates and 3rd party proprietary and still same! [16:10] lotuspsychje: it ran 14.04 fine for years [16:10] lotuspsychje: i'm guessing 16.04 discards support for old hardware [16:10] theseb: are you sure it's freezing? [16:10] theseb: did you md5 the iso? [16:11] How do I find out if my laptop uses 32bit or 64bit UEFI? From Windoze [16:11] rubenwardy better ask in ##windows [16:11] rubenwardy: most recent machines are 64bit [16:11] rubenwardy, linux supports 64 bit UEFI only AFAIK [16:12] The webpage says there's a complicated workaround for 32bit [16:12] I really hope I don't have 32bit [16:12] lotuspsychje: yes on sha1sum [16:12] rubenwardy, check your cpu, if that is 64, bit, you are fine [16:12] nacc: well i left it overnight [16:12] theseb: other usb stick test? [16:12] OerHeks: there's a 32-bit grub-efi package. [16:12] lotuspsychje: well the same usb stick worked on a laptop [16:13] I have a 64bit CPU. I've read that sometimes they package a 32bit UEFI to save money [16:13] ducasse, oh, nice to know [16:13] NotDisliked: Do you have 32bit or 64bit version installed? [16:13] theseb: hmm thats weird, perhaps try bios set to defaults [16:13] rubenwardy, then it comes with 32 bit windows [16:13] the_ghost: 64-bit [16:14] oh, ok: so if both windows and cpu are 64bit, then I'm fine [16:14] lotuspsychje: another issue when trying to install php7.0-dev: The following packages have unmet dependencies: [16:14] php7.0-dev : Depends: libpcre3-dev but it is not going to be installed [16:14] theseb: can you read the error on those freezing steps? [16:14] lotuspsychje: any way to solve it? [16:14] i just reinstall dbus and worked fine [16:14] nicomachus? OerHeks? Thanks for the help though :) [16:14] Sagar, oh good find [16:14] enoch85: from where are you installing php7? [16:15] lotuspsychje: there isn't any....err...WHERE see the errors? [16:15] theseb: you can click to see details on the install window [16:15] OerHeks: linux supports 32-bit UEFI as well. Ubuntu doesn't build the AMD64 ISO for it, so it's slightly more complicated to get going [16:16] tgm4883, noticed, i had to update my old info [16:16] enoch85: you got ppa's enabled? [16:16] rubenwardy: what laptop? [16:16] is there a install log vc on the desktop image or just on server? [16:16] lotuspsychje: when i click on SKIP it showed a window..is that what you mean? [16:16] Sagar: glad it's working. [16:16] theseb: erm, at wich point exactly things go wrong? [16:17] asus x555la (the x555lab variety). i5-5200U@2.2GHz 8GB Ram, 1TB, 1920x1080 [16:17] tgm4883 ^ [16:17] lotuspsychje: I removed the ppa from sources.list.d/ [16:17] lotuspsychje: isnt that enough? [16:17] !ppapurge | enoch85 no [16:17] enoch85 no: 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 [16:18] rubenwardy: AFAIK, it's just the bay trail stuff that has a 32-bit UEFI, mostly embedded stuff [16:18] NotDisliked: can you install (sudo apt-get install lm-sensors) and then (sudo sensors-detect) and answer yes to all. After that run (sensors) and share your temperature readings. [16:19] the_ghost: allow me to test that really quick [16:20] lotuspsychje: it nuked drive....copied bunch of stuff and stopped at "Retrieving file 56 of 56" [16:20] NotDisliked: Most of these issues come from the GPU getting hot not the CPU. If that is the case, your issue is probably related to nvidia driver issues. [16:20] theseb: or you cloning or real installing? [16:21] service apache2 start [16:21] doesn't show any output why? [16:21] ubuntu 16 [16:21] lotuspsychje: fresh install [16:22] lotuspsychje: just so you see i'm not crazy...someone else had similar...see this http://askubuntu.com/questions/774967/installation-is-retrieving-file-56-of-56-for-ages [16:23] service apache2 start doesn't show any output, i am on ubuntu 16.04 xenial [16:23] lotuspsychje: I tried to remove it tih ppa.purge but it says that it don't exist [16:23] theseb: are you installing with wifi or cable? [16:23] Sagar: That's usually a good thing [16:23] lotuspsychje: cable [16:24] O.o [16:24] Sagar: Usually only shows errors on start [16:24] theseb: try an offline install [16:24] jq- : it should show [16:24] apache2 starting ... [ok] [16:24] something like that? [16:24] Sagar: No [16:24] it used to [16:24] yes [16:24] The way I know apache started is that it doesn't not show something [16:24] Lolo [16:24] how does service management work on ubuntu/debian... used to 'service [servicename] stop|start|restart|etc...' [16:24] I mean wut [16:25] hello, how can i install this package? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libsecp256k1 [16:25] My point is, nothing showing is good [16:25] what repo is it=??

[16:28] lotuspsychje: i installed from usb stick..is that offline? [16:28] lotuspsychje: or active ppas [16:28] gecko_x2: first step: chill. calm down. stop swearing. [16:28] lotuspsychje: how do "offline"? === u is now known as Guest70029 [16:28] !find libsecp [16:28] done [16:28] Package/file libsecp does not exist in xenial [16:28] theseb: no, disable cable and wifi [16:28] MonkeyDust, thanks! [16:28] gecko_x2: that url shows only a 16.10 package [16:29] davemwi glad i could help [16:29] lotuspsychje: it only shows BUGS for a yakkety package. [16:30] oh wait [16:30] ignore me [16:30] Is the process for installing xubuntu 15.04 on a UEFI laptop the same as installing ubuntu 15.04? [16:30] rubenwardy: you shouldn't be installing 15.04 [16:31] nicomachus i've been ignoring you for days now [16:31] :( [16:31] (joke) [16:31] https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1 [16:31] 15.04 is the latest xubuntu [16:31] i tried compiling [16:31] lotuspsychje: how do that? [16:31] doesn't work for the binary that needs it [16:31] !15.04 | rubenwardy [16:31] rubenwardy: 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 [16:31] i get illegal flags [16:31] rubenwardy, 16.04 [16:31] rubenwardy: 16.04 [16:31] theseb: unplug your cable from your pc? dont enter a wifi password and proceed with ubuntu setup [16:31] oh, they did release a new one [16:31] rubenwardy: https://xubuntu.org/news/release/16-04/ [16:31] lotuspsychje: ok [16:31] ok, same question but for 16.04 [16:32] lotuspsychje: thanks [16:32] yea it's the same.

While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [16:36] Sagar: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/httpd.html [16:36] gecko_x2: the package you want is for 16.10...

[16:37] i know i know [16:37] gecko_x2: There's not really any advice to offer since the package is only available for 16.10. [16:37] i've had it working before [16:37] I mean, you could install a testing version of yakkety if you really wanted to.

[16:40] lotuspsychje i've had this wallet working before [16:40] sorry forgot to modify the copy and paste and split lines. [16:40] glass: do you want some documentation for your packages that you will probably never read? It will take up hd space which depending on your device may or may not be a problem.

I generally disable recommended and suggests on my server installs, unless I have an excess of free disk space. [16:44] The installer is telling me that no kernel is available [16:44] Hello all.

[17:41] OerHeks: no, I manually deleted them, but that should be enough right? why haven't they disappeared from the packages? [17:41] enoch85, if you manually deleted that file, the packages remain [17:41] ppa-purge reverses that [17:41] so, add the ppa again,a nd use ppa-purge [17:43] Anyone? [17:43] here are the repos MonkeyDust http://pastebin.com/rQPziQNX [17:44] OerHeks: ok, but how to remove the packages? I tried autoremove, clean, purge everything [17:44] i use xenial xerus, my ipad detected just as camera, how to fix it? Help please and thx [17:44] enoch85, told you: add ppa again, use ppa purge, then you would have standard php7 [17:44] and you can remove that [17:45] OerHeks: check this out: http://pastebin.com/PeSTe3Bk [17:45] I'm using 16.04, touch screen works but where I touch is off by almost an inch. Trying to find a way to calibrate and fix this.. :D [17:45] Hey folks [17:46] Is it possible to undo a rm command? [17:46] OerHeks: problem is that the ppa is deceperated, it was ppa:ondrej/php7.0 and now it is ppa:ondrej/php [17:46] enoch85, you will keep funny errors, untill you cleaned that ppa from your system. [17:46] does that make any difference OerHeks [17:46] i don't know, enoch85 , we warn against ppa's. [17:48] BlackVenom: not really. [17:48] OK not to worry [17:48] It wasn't to important anyways === [Mr_Red]OFF is now known as Mr_Red [17:48] BlackVenom: you could try to scan the hdd for parts that are not overwritten already, but that is a lot of effort [17:49] BlackVenom: try extundelete [17:49] ok OerHeks your sulution worked, install and then purge [17:49] k1l it was only a log file that'll be recreated soon enough so nothing too major [17:49] thanks! [17:50] enoch85, have fun! === Sagar is now known as Guest77490 === Sagu is now known as Sagar [17:50] I didn't know if rm simply moved it to a trash folder somewhere that was periodically deleted [17:51] BlackVenom: the trash folder is a gui thing [17:51] Ah === Mr_Red is now known as [Mr_Red]OFF === john is now known as Guest38607 === sebbu3 is now known as sebbu [17:54] <_3by8> I need some help mounting a VMWare HGFS share from a Windows host so that file permissions don't all get squashed to root. I've been told that changes to the fstab in regards to the UID might help. Any ideas? === csyogi1 is now known as csyogi [17:59] my chrome wont print anything it prints a blank page. does anyone know why? [17:59] <_3by8> Powerless: have you tried printing more than one page? [17:59] <_3by8> Powerless: I mean from other domains. [18:00] _3by8, yes.only mozilla prints [18:00] _3by8, it only happens with pdf [18:00] <_3by8> Powerless: how many different domains have you tried printing from? [18:00] <_3by8> Powerless: try saving the PDF first and then print it. [18:01] it saves a blank page [18:02] <_3by8> Powerless: save the PDF in Firefox first. [18:02] I apologize that I forget who gave me the link to calibrate touch screen.. but it worked perfectly. thank you so mu ch [18:02] <_3by8> Powerless: where did you install Chrome from? [18:02] <_3by8> Powerless: could you maybe share the link you're trying to print? [18:03] _3by8, im afraid not..from chrome website [18:04] <_3by8> Powerless: have you tried downloading the PDF using Firefox or the commandline utility wget? [18:04] <_3by8> How large is the PDF file that you've downloaded on your disk? [18:05] _3by8, actually i dont wanna download it..it just opens on my chrome and i click to print it [18:05] <_3by8> Can't help you then. [18:06] _3by8, i havent tried this wget [18:06] Powerless, to print, you will need to sve to disk first [18:06] Hi, i have a problem running win 7 in virtual box, said me "VT-x is disabled in the BIOS for all CPU modes (VERR_VMX_MSR_ALL_VMX_DISABLED). Código Resultado: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) Componente: ConsoleWrap Interfaz: IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}" [18:06] c/save [18:06] Stiward: go to the bios and enable vt-x [18:07] i had to enable vt-x to use 64bit iso's in vbox [18:07] Hello all, my ubuntu won't boot correctly unless I go through "recovery mode" and do dpkg in there(even though dpkg does nothing) [18:07] Powerless, that is why ubuntu/linux is safe, no funn print access from a browser [18:07] rafgas: try booting it without quiet splash to see the output while it boots [18:08] Eric^^: just add - - quiet splash in boot line? [18:08] OerHeks, but i can download anything I want but PDF using chrome and I download everything from other browsers [18:08] rafgas: no just remove quiet splash [18:09] EriC^^: thanks, i got one question, When I entered the center this did not load software window and installed updates [18:09] Ah, doing that now [18:09] <_3by8> Powerless try downloading the PDF with wget. The syntax is simply wget http://www.yoururlhere.com/yourpdf.pdf [18:09] Stiward: didn't get what you meant [18:09] Powerless, then don't save it to disk, your choise [18:10] I've noticed that shutting down takes longer than before also [18:10] EriC^^: ?? [18:10] _3by8, i dont know how :/ [18:10] Stiward: i didn't understand what you meant, what center? [18:10] EriC^^: sorry, ubuntu software center [18:10] <_3by8> Powerless: do you know how to use the terminal? [18:11] _3by8, yes [18:11] Stiward: there's a button at the top that says updates [18:11] <_3by8> Powerless: simply type the command 'wget' followed by the URL of the PDF file [18:11] Stiward: if you click it it should show them [18:11] 8″? [18:11] EriC^^: yes but that window not load [18:12] Eric : I see a long list of [ OK ], and then "welcome to emergency mode" [18:12] Stiward: hmm what happens, i've no idea about this honestly [18:12] rafgas: does it say why [18:13] _3by8, i have no problem vizualizing it. my pdf viewer opens and i can see it. I just can see when i click to print it and it opens the preview of the print you know? [18:13] There is an option to "type journalctl -xb" to view system logs, should I do that? [18:13] rafgas: yeah why not [18:14] EriC^^: And how advisable it is to use solidworks, photoshop and Illustrator with virtualbox in ubuntu? [18:14] <_3by8> Powerless: we've already determined that you can print other PDF documents from other domains, correct? [18:15] _3by8, no, i cant. not on chrome at least [18:15] Stiward: never tried it [18:15] photoshop? I'm a bit of a newbie but why not use gimp and see what you can do with that? [18:15] Eric^^: ACPI warning... Something about type mismatch. That's all I see that looks like an error or similar [18:16] rafgas: ok, try booting into an older kernel [18:16] EriC^^:last question, in the bios, to enable vt-x; the option to enable it apear like "vt-x"? [18:16] Powerless: chrome is a google product, we support ubuntu. [18:16] <_3by8> Powerless: do you also have Adobe Acrobat installed? [18:16] _3by8, if click to save as PDF it shows but if i choose my printer is shows blank [18:16] Stiward: unadvisable for SOlidWorks. It'll be slow for Photoshop and Illustrator. [18:17] Stiward: the BIOS option varies system to system [18:17] when you highlight the older kernel press "e" and go to the line at the bottom that says linux /boot/vmlinuz and see if there are any acpi_osi stuff in it [18:17] Stiward: yeah enable vt-x or virtualization [18:17] Stiward: it may be "Enable VT-X" or "Expose virtualization to guests", or similar [18:17] <_3by8> Powerless: do you have Acrobat installed? [18:17] Tried that Eric: a few lines down it says "nvidia-persistenced [694] : shutdown. [18:17] ducasse, make a browser that does everything I need and ill move to it [18:17] EriC^^: thanks [18:18] _3by8, nope [18:18] Stiward: no problem [18:18] Has anyone here ever use keepalived? [18:18] Perhaps boot through recovery and downgrade nvidia driver? [18:18] rafgas: yeah good idea [18:18] teward: and why slow for photoshop and illustrator?, solidworks not need more resourses? [18:19] <_3by8> Powerless: have you tried resetting the browser's settings? [18:19] _3by8, i just installed it.. its flesh :P [18:19] Stiward: three of my engineering buddies tried it in VBox, unless you are able to give 6GB RAM minimum to the guest, SolidWorks doesn't like working right. Same "slowness" for Photoshop/Illustrator as well [18:19] _3by8, linux i mean [18:19] <_3by8> Powerless: okay, have you tried opening it in an incognito window? [18:20] Powerless: the fact that you need it doesn't make it any more supported here. [18:21] ducasse, you use linux and only linux or do you install programs on it? [18:21] _3by8, yes [18:21] <_3by8> Powerless: what he's saying is that this is actually a Chrome issue and he'd be right. [18:21] teward: my maximum RAM capacity of 8GB or well that is what brings my computer [18:21] Powerless linux programs are different from windows programs [18:22] teward: it is sufficient that? [18:22] _3by8, ok thanks I will try somewhere else :) i appreciate it [18:22] <_3by8> np [18:23] Stiward: personal experience suggests it may be but i don't think it'll be effectively fast for your host (the less ram available to the host, the slower it gets) [18:23] Stiward: why dont you dual boot? [18:24] Eric : still a no-go with downgraded nvidia driver [18:24] Is it possible to make a DVD-R which is UEFI only? Or can you only do that with USBs? === rafael is now known as Guest14297 [18:24] good evening [18:25] Eric : now it says this "no ACPI video bus found" [18:25] After a few Lubuntu 15.10 updates and a long term with out using pc, my dual boot laptop lubuntu 15.10/windows 10, keyboard dont work on login screen to insert password. On windows work perfectly. I tryed a usb lubuntu live persistent, but is same thing keyboard dont work. [18:25] teward: can u explain me that please? [18:26] Eric^^: I'll take a picture and link it here [18:27] rafgas: what kernel line is being used in grub? [18:27] EriC^^: I dont like windows, but if i use dual boot that will not lower the performance of my computer compared if only tubiera ubuntu? [18:27] Hold on, I'll check [18:28] rubywarden: should be possible with a dvd, the ubuntu images are just iso images. should still work on a dvd without the mbr. [18:28] EriC^^: I dont like windows, but if i use dual boot that will not lower the performance of my computer compared if only have ubuntu? [18:29] ducasse, it's possible to make a USB iso which won't allow you to accidentally boot it in BIOS legacy [18:29] by formating it as FAT32 or something [18:29] Stiward: no it won't affect ubuntu other than using up space on the hdd [18:29] http://askubuntu.com/questions/395879/how-to-create-uefi-only-bootable-usb-live-media/ [18:29] I guess it doesn't matter that much [18:29] Stiward: the performance compared to using a vm will be huge though [18:30] rubywarden: should work fine. [18:30] EriC^^: And why its better the dual boot compared to the virtual box? [18:31] how to save ubuntu unity session? [18:31] uruk it's a gconf setting [18:31] Stiward: cause virtualbox you're already running an os, and running another os virtualized in it, you're already using resources on the host, less ram, graphic card, etc [18:32] Stiward: those programs do a lot of rendering, they need as much cpu/graphics/ram as possible [18:32] rubywarden: an iso image uses el torito to store an mbr, but should work just fine with just an efi system partition. [18:32] monkeyDust I have ubuntu 15.10 and conpizconfig how to save unity sessions [18:33] rafgas: you got it working? [18:33] some expert lubuntu can help me ? After a few Lubuntu 15.10 updates and a long term with out using pc, my dual boot laptop lubuntu 15.10/windows 10, keyboard dont work on login screen to insert password. On windows work perfectly. I tryed a usb lubuntu live persistent, but is same thing keyboard dont work. [18:33] rubywarden: just put the dvd in a microwave for 1 sec, it should fry the mbr and leave it uefi bootable (j/k) [18:33] Argon : no, trying to make imgur work for me so I can show what I see [18:34] uruk install dconf-editor ... in it, go to org.gnome.SessionManager [18:35] EriC^^: mmm but I managed to run these programs, not virtalbox in ubuntu; these would be more efficient than ubuntu windows or not? [18:35] Stiward: i didn't understand what you meant [18:35] Eric : what am I looking for in the kernel line? [18:36] rafgas: anything out of the ordinary [18:37] this is ordinary /boot/vmlinuz-4.6.0-040600rc6-generic root=UUID=dfb3a391-d38c-4468-a62b-68d02ac2504a ro quiet splash $vthandoff [18:37] MonkeyDust SessionManager not exists in org>gnome> [18:37] rafgas: fyi, you can use "cat /proc/cmdline" to see your current kernel line in use... [18:38] uruk have you opened dconf-editor? [18:38] yes [18:39] EriC^^: nothing strange here... Except it says $vt_handoff [18:39] EriC^^: those programs are work better in ubuntu than in windows (but without use virtualbox)? [18:39] uruk click on org, then gnome, then gnome-session [18:40] Stiward: they dont exist in ubuntu, they have counterparts though, gimp instead of photoshop, freecad instead of solidworks, and libre draw i think instead of illustrator [18:40] not sure how close freecad is to solidworks, i think it's parametrized and has infinitesimal analysis/meshes [18:40] ok org>gnome>gnome-session>auto-save-session thanks monkeyDust [18:41] also there's inkscape that's like illustrator [18:41] EriC^^: http://imgur.com/1t6xGT3 [18:41] i probe [18:41] in ubuntu 16.04, on my laptop, itll often say on boot "fixing recursive fault but reboot is necessary", then a bunch of other stuff and it just freezes -- but if i choose the boot option 'upstart', that works fine, fixes the filesystem or whatever (cause i did i hard shutdown), and then if i reboot ubuntu will boot normally... it just cant seem to do its journal repairing stuff that way [18:42] laptop is an hp 6910p if it matters, core2duo t7700 === Queenslayer is now known as Guest84265 === Arrow_ is now known as Queenslayers [18:42] looks fine rafgas === Queenslayers is now known as Queenslayer [18:43] rafgas: try to add "nomodeset" instead of quiet splash [18:43] EriC^^: will do (what does that do?) [18:44] Hey guys! I'm thinking of setting up a ubuntu server for webhosting on Linode and currently my main concern is security setup.. Could anyone point me in the right direction to set that up a guide/tool or whatever [18:45] rafgas: it's like low graphics mode [18:45] darko0 there's also #ubuntu-server [18:45] oh thx! [18:45] EriC^^: same results... [18:45] bb :) [18:45] rafgas: ok boot the recovery mode [18:46] can you get a gui from there with the failsafe option? [18:46] monkeyDust i probe it dconf for save sessions and doesn't work [18:46] hi [18:46] uruk ok, then i don't know [18:46] <_3by8> Does anyone know how an HGFS share is automatically mounted? Which script is responsible for that if I have an HGFS share on a Windows host and Linux guest? [18:47] EriC^^: i don't see failsafe option, resume, clean etc, but no failsafe [18:47] ok try enable networking [18:47] then drop to root shell [18:47] K [18:48] rafgas: how did the problem start? [18:48] I have 9 workareas with diferents backgrounds and ubuntu 15.10 and compizconfig and i want save session in all workareas this is possible? [18:48] Normal update software, reboot and boink [18:48] rafgas: have you had a look at the logs+ [18:48] EriC^^: in root now [18:49] With net [18:49] rafgas: ok, type tail /var/log/apt/history.log | nc termbin.com 9999 [18:49] argon__: I looked at some logs, not sure which I should look at [18:49] Will do EriC^^ [18:51] EriC^^: jfgh [18:51] the log for your pacakage manager probably, apt [18:51] hello dears [18:52] EriC^^: that is what I did earlier, downgraded nvidia [18:52] rafgas: oh [18:52] rafgas: try this command and have a look at the driver in use lshw -c video [18:52] rafgas: try cat /var/log/apt/history.log | nc termbin.com 9999 [18:52] how to know all windows opens and positions in desktops unity from terminal? [18:52] argon__: he's not in x yet [18:53] <_3by8> Does anyone know how an HGFS share is automatically mounted? Which script is responsible for that if I have an HGFS share on a Windows host and Linux guest? [18:53] Oh, then we have a problem [18:54] EriC^^: cpi9 [18:55] (í can't scroll up the screen) [18:55] none had same experience before ? [18:55] !crosspost | aladiah [18:55] aladiah: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. [18:56] rafgas: try ubuntu-drivers devices and see the recommended driver [18:57] EriC^^: it recommends the one I had when the problem started [18:58] rafgas: did you try purging nvidia* ? [18:58] EriC^^: could it be trying to run both nvidia and Intel screen drivers at the same time? [18:58] No purging, no, how do I do that? [18:58] apt-get purge nvidia* [18:59] And then reboot? [19:00] yes [19:01] EriC^^: No-go [19:01] what did it say [19:01] Same results, emergency mode [19:02] rafgas: ok try to boot into the root shell again [19:02] Done, with network [19:02] and try cat /var/log/apt/history.log | nc termbin.com 9999 [19:03] EriC^^: 125g [19:03] 404 [19:04] ibyt [19:05] hello all, what is the best way to configure "switch layout while right alt is pressed" in Ubuntu 14.04 and higher? === rubywarden is now known as rubenwardy [19:06] i have a problem running Raidcall with wine, said me "Detalles: Falló al cambiar al directorio «/home/roldan/.wine/dosdevices/z:/home/roldan/Descargas/RaidCall» (No existe el archivo o el directorio)" [19:07] i have a problem running Raidcall with wine, said me "Details: Failed to change the "/home/roldan/.wine/dosdevices/z:/home/roldan/Descargas/RaidCall" directory (No such file or directory) Details: Failed to change to the "/ home / directory roldan /.wine/dosdevices/z:/home/roldan/Descargas/RaidCall "(No such file or directory)" === bernardo is now known as bsamorim [19:09] Stiward: It might be worth asking that in the wine support channel [19:10] !wine | Stiward [19:10] Stiward: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [19:10] though does that file exist? i.e. what does this output? ls -ld /home/roldan/Descargas/RaidCall [19:11] DJones: how i can go to that channel?

[19:22] EriC^^: i remembered that I added a webdav mount I'm fstab, I commented that line out and I'm in, I'm gonna retry to be sure [19:23] And perhaps get help with the webdav mount then... ;) [19:23] 1. I would like to know what is the best practise about intermediate CA ? Intermediate CA must be installed on servers (LDAPS, AD, HTTPS) or on clients ? 2. Is-it possible to sigen a certificate using both SHA-1 and SHA-2 ? Thanks :) [19:23] Eric, yep, that worked [19:24] rafgas: cool [19:25] omouk: intermediate certificate should be bundled and presented by the server [19:26] Termbin.com/n28s why does the webdav mount break my boot? [19:28] TJ-: Thanks, so if I use active directory to store public certificates (for mail crypting), I have to installed intermediate certificate on Active Directory, not on mail clients ? [19:28] rafgas: try to uncomment it and type sudo mount -a [19:29] omouk: And I don't think X509 supports multiple signature algorithms in a single cert [19:29] EriC^^: it asks for username and password, can't I add that to fstab? [19:30] omouk: yes, you may be able to install it once to be shared by all services, or install it bundled with the server's certificate [19:30] https://webdav.example.com /home/username/webdav davfs user,noauto,uid=username,file_mode=600,dir_mode=700 0 1 [19:30] TJ-: thank you very much for your anwsers :) [19:31] Error while copying to a USB stick: The destination is read-only [19:31] Hmm, strange the server doesn't accept webdav anymore , this doesn't look like an ubuntu problem anymore...

[20:27] rubenwardy: yes, if the installer *boots* in UEFI mode it'll install grub-efi === jwheare_local_ is now known as jwheare_local [20:27] gnome panel issue with vnc : http://paste.linux.chat/view/4fb3db18 [20:28] rubenwardy: controlling the boot mode is down to the motherboard's boot manager, and what you, the user, chooses [20:29] awesome, so as long as I check that the installer is in UEFI mode (the wiki page says that it'll come up with a black options screen with Try/Install ubuntu, and no pink screen) then it should work fine? [20:29] rubenwardy: the installer will use GRUB if it starts in UEFI mode, so the boot menu will have the GRUB version printed across the top [20:29] hai, how to find out trouble that freezing my laptop? I am on xenial xerus [20:29] rubenwardy: if it boots in MBR mode it'll use the syslinux/isolinux boot menu not GRUB [20:30] I see [20:31] This thread mentions possibly changing OS Selection in the boot config: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2253168&page=2 [20:31] Does anyone know anything about that? Is that only applicable for booting in legacy mode? [20:35] rubenwardy: the firmware will have a boot manager menu. Usually there's a key you can press at boot-time that can access it, then you get to choose which device or boot-menu entry to use. For a removable device that has both UEFI and Legacy boot built-in, the menu should show 2 entries for the device and indicate in some which is EFI and which is Legacy [20:36] oi [20:36] rubenwardy: unfortunately the way it is indicated is left to the manufacturers so there's no standard, and some make it all but impossible to figure out [20:36] Howdy [20:36] portugues [20:36] alguem [20:36] brasil [20:36] !pt | fantasma_ [20:36] fantasma_: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português.

Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually.

(waiting for dd to fill zeroes....) [22:30] AbsurdTech: aiming for a traditional installer. (win 7 pro) [22:30] AbsurdTech: It is that I want to install windows (for intalarlo next to ubuntu), I have the iso imaen recorded in Mayan key (the recorded image using "disk image writer"); the internal system already had managed to boot from a USB but do not start the procedure from the USB and I usually start Ubuntu [22:31] AbsurdTech: It is that I want to install windows (to install next to ubuntu), I have the iso imaen recorded in Mayan key (the recorded image using "disk image writer"); the internal system already had managed to boot from a USB but do not start the procedure from the USB and I usually start Ubuntu [22:32] Stiward: did you install the windows os after you booted into it from the usb stick?

[22:35] AbsurdTech: realtek generally is a pain in the butt. purely absurd tech [22:35] HA [22:35] AbsurdTech: ?? [22:35] *ba dum tsh* [22:36] Stiward: Is the computer you're using come from an OEM? [22:36] or a company you'd find in retail stores? [22:37] how long should it take for `dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc` to execute? im at the 5-10 minute mark ... [22:37] its a 15GB usb stick [22:38] AbsurdTech: OEM? [22:38] Lots of factors, how fast your storage device is (generally not too often slowing down things), how fast your USB drive is, whether it's plugged into a 3.0 hole if it can utilize those speeds [22:38] Stiward: so when you restart your computer do you have an option for press f11 for boot menu? (or something like it) [22:39] wgwz: 1 hour per gig is my experience with "bs=1M" . [22:39] Almost most windows images are near the 5.0GB mark if I'm not mistaken so it may take a bit [22:39] 100 gigs * [22:39] wgwz: F10 [22:39] a bit longer without the bs=1m option [22:39] What's the difference between Files (/dev/sda5 ntfs) and Xubuntu (/dev/sda6 ext4)? This is in the partioning menu, I'm trying to install alongside Windows 10. It's a dragger, and they're the two options, and the file sizes don't add up to my full hard drive space [22:40] Stiward: what error messages do you get when you try to boot windows? [22:41] exit [22:41] hello all how can I install 331 drivers in ubuntu 16.04? [22:42] the newer drivers cause all types of issues, full screen flickering, and poor performance in steam games, want to go back to the old reliable 331 drivers, I only see 304 and 340 in driver manager === rafael is now known as Guest7239 [22:43] wgwz: anyone, just enter normaly to ubuntu, dont enter to tha usb [22:44] Going into the advanced view, Files (/etc/sda5) already exists but Xubuntu (/etc/sda6) doesn't, so I'm guessing /etc/sda5 is Windows [22:44] but the "used" column is wrong, it's measuring 100MB ish in Files [22:45] woops [22:45] lol === cooloutac is now known as Guest55347 [22:45] que pasa [22:45] i tried sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 but that doesn't install it, only uses 340 so confusing [22:46] I want to install nvidia 331 binary driver. [22:46] man it doesn't look like linux gaming is going anywhere... [22:46] :( [22:46] wait why am I gues? lol [22:46] cooloutac: " Support for X.Org xserver version 1.15 was added to the 173.14.* legacy driver series with version 173.14.39. No further releases from the 173.14.* series are planned." Older 331 driver you can bet is also no longer supported by Nvidia . http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3142/~/support-timeframes-for-unix-legacy-gpu-releases . [22:47] Bashing-om, what do you mean supported? thats not a big deal I just want to install it [22:48] Guest55347: You can not install what does not exist . right ? [22:48] but it has to exist somewhere [22:49] guest .. well .. IF you were to install a real old linux release from way back .. and maybe can find the driver as OEM ??? Moderen Xservr will not work with that driver . [22:49] Bashing-om, oh and that was proably before ubuntu was systemd so even if I find it maybe it won't install right? [22:50] dam... well this sucks [22:50] guys when I put my laptop on sleep mode and wake it up wifi doesnt work !!! [22:50] guess I have to stick with windows for gaming [22:50] the newer nvidia drivers are are terrible for the older cards [22:50] i have a gtx 650 ti [22:50] Guest55347: correct .. will not install . [22:50] so much for steam on linux tf2 runs horrible. [22:51] but even worse i get flickering in vlc [22:51] Guest55347: I look, I bet nvidia recommends the 361 version . [22:51] Bashing-om, ya but nvidia has been really going downhill [22:51] i hav a similar issue on linux with a specific game bad company 2. [22:51] guys when I put my laptop on sleep mode and wake it up wifi doesnt work !!! [22:52] newwer drivers cause severe stuttering, low fps on mdeium settings, and black screen flickering [22:52] if i roll back to 331 drivers. it runs at great fps on high settings no issues [22:52] complaining to nvidia and ea got me nowhere [22:52] how can i grab an iso image in my usb? [22:52] Guest55347, then why dont u roll back [22:52] then at the same time for newer games you need the newer drivers for best performance like bf3 [22:52] so its like a pick and choose [22:52] probably all a conspiracy to get people to buy newer games or hardware. [22:53] codfection, apparenlty its not possible anymore, its all a conspiracy to force upgrades. [22:53] Guest55347: Can not help there .. Nvidia do remommend 361 : http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/101423/en-us . === gbell1 is now known as gbell [22:53] Bashing-om, its a conspiracy [22:53] Bashing-om, i remember basck in the late 90s and early 200s, you never upgraded your dam drivers if they worked. [22:54] hello who helps me with this question, because the same computer with xubuntu the processor reaches 100% and not vaja but lubuntu is between 30% and 90% work better because? It is much difference Desktop [22:54] I don't know when that philosphophy changed. newere drivers are made for newer cards they definitely aint testing them on everything [22:54] what a joke... [22:54] apparenlty they are also made for newer software too. so old stuff just gets left in the dust. doesn't really seem like the linux way to me. [22:55] but even forget about the games, what is up with the fullscreen flickering in linux now. [22:55] that is terrible, probably ruins the card. [22:56] how do you turn compositing off in unity? [22:56] Guest55347: To get just an inkling of an idea of how hard we work on drivers : https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-desktop/2015-August/004693.html , [22:56] Guest55347: I think it gets turned off automatically for full screen gaming [22:57] tgm4883, i'm having the issue in vlc [22:57] watching a video [22:57] personally if I had rig with nvidia I wouldnt go for ubuntu as it has many bugs and drivers problems. [22:57] flickers [22:57] codfection, what would you go for? i have had the same issue on arch too [22:57] * tgm4883 has an nvidia card and it works fine [22:57] Windows plays good with nvidia [22:57] mint cinnamon seemed to run it nice though [22:57] and games [22:57] no full screen flickering with vlc on mint cinnamon [22:57] but ya games still ran like crap [22:57] mint runs on old kernel [22:58] even on 4.4. kernel [22:58] on mint cinnamon no fullscreen flickering with vlc and nvidia prop driver [22:58] in fact, I think it's about that time [22:58] * tgm4883 fires up xcom 2 [22:58] linux in my opinion is not as mature as others when it comes to entertainment and gaming [22:58] codfection, well its supported steam for 3 years now i thought things were diff. [22:58] guess not. [22:59] SteamOS u mean === carlo_ is now known as Guest41505 [22:59] I wouldn't bother listening to codfection [22:59] not only have games gotten worse, so have the desktops lol [22:59] tgm4883, ya i think he is a little out of touch [22:59] codfection, valve officially support ubuntu [22:59] 2016 and still I have wifi issues after waking up my laptop from sleep on ubuntu 16.04 lol [23:00] that LTS thou [23:00] lol [23:00] had to fix appstream bugs [23:00] in order to install [23:00] lol [23:00] the ubuntu installer hun on me retrieving 56 of 56 [23:00] i had to unplug the ethernet plug just to install bunto [23:00] yup [23:00] so crazy [23:00] exactly [23:00] its LTS btw [23:00] hahah [23:00] even if you don't check download updates while installing [23:01] weird, I haven't had any issues installing 16.04 [23:01] tgm4883, i thought the dam iso on usb was corrupted [23:01] but nope, it was trying to do something over the internet when installing for some reason [23:01] tgm4883, the bugs are latest. u perhaps need to keep urself updated. [23:01] http://askubuntu.com/questions/774918/apt-get-is-stuck-at-fetched-xxkb-in-xxsec [23:01] only way to get it installed was to literally unplug the ethernet cable so it didn't freeze [23:02] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/+bug/1583845 [23:02] Launchpad bug 1579712 in appstream (Ubuntu Xenial) "duplicate for #1583845 Refresh hangs indefinitely, appstreamcli using 100% CPU" [High,Fix released] [23:02] LTS lol [23:02] tgm4883, i found that solution on an ubuntu thread [23:02] codfection: yes, I know if that issue, and it's already fixed... [23:02] codfection, that was a one off and was fixed right away [23:02] squinty, just before few hours [23:02] tgm4883, i didn't take it seriously until it ried like 3 times and hours later haha [23:02] I tried re installing and the bug still exists [23:03] it froze up on cleaning temp files or something [23:03] i think it actually retrieves that last file, but osmethign happens [23:03] codfection: why would you reinstall... [23:03] tgm4883, i bet its happend to alot of people who just moved on to another distro [23:03] coz apt get was stuck and didnt know its bug of LTS 16.04 [23:03] thought something gone broken due to my fault [23:03] <_3vi1_> 'devel' repos or nothing. It's the computer equivalent to being addicted to cutting yourself. :) [23:04] developers should just tell people what hardware they have so we can buy the same shit [23:04] Guest55347: they usually do... [23:04] <_3vi1_> Guest55347: Okay... "All different". [23:04] ya i guess... [23:04] they also probably don't do much with their pcs that normal people would. [23:05] codfection, done a least 6 full installs of 16.04 and never encountered the appstream bug. and also don't have any problems with nvidia cards either [23:05] Can we move this to #ubuntu-discuss [23:05] squinty, sounds pretty unbelievable man [23:05] tgm4883, how do i disable compositing in unity [23:05] squinty: I ran into the appstream bug last night. Was fixed when I ran an update today [23:05] squinty, sorry but I believe u have installed before this bug. try now :) [23:06] tgm4883, yea maybe today they have fixed. [23:06] codfection: see, fixed quickly [23:06] i sometimes think computer users ignore reality to think positive that their system is ok when it isn't, so alot of problems never get fixed. [23:06] 1 entire day is not quickly for LTS I guess [23:06] it happens with windows users too [23:07] tgm4883, yes it is a one (experienced it here also) but it was fixed and afaik, not an issue during an iso install of 16.04 [23:07] "one off" [23:07] squinty, my issue was it would freeze on retriving file 56 of 56 [23:07] codfection: you keep using that abbreviation, I don't think it means what you think it means [23:07] squinty, common old issue with ubuntu installers. still happens I guess. [23:07] according to forums [23:08] only installer thats way worse is opensuse [23:08] <_3vi1_> Hmmm... I've been using Ubuntu for 10 years, and I don't think I've ever run into it either. :\ [23:08] so a forum post said to unplug the ethernet cable. i ignored that thinking it was ridiculous [23:08] but sure enough that was the problme [23:08] tgm4883, thats the bug known. imagine how many are hidden underhood. [23:08] Guest55347, not here it's not. been using ubuntu for years [23:08] codfection: so? [23:09] squinty, aren't you lucky [23:09] Guest55347: I've never ran into that either [23:09] https://askubuntu.com/questions/774967/installation-is-retrieving-file-56-of-56-for-ages [23:09] Guest55347, leave it please [23:09] <_3vi1_> Don't you love when a suggestion sounds stupid, so you put it off til the last resort, then it works. heh [23:09] squinty, https://askubuntu.com/questions/774967/installation-is-retrieving-file-56-of-56-for-ages [23:10] Guest55347: FWIW, that isn't a bug report [23:10] <_3vi1_> 20 hours doesn't seem 'old' [23:10] tgm4883, and? [23:10] tgm4883, it sure is a way to scare away users fsrom using ubuntu though [23:10] tgm4883, dont' worry opensuse is worse. [23:10] Guest55347: it's difficult to fix issues when no developers know about them [23:11] tgm4883, well thats my point [23:11] why does my internet suck, or web browsing suck on 16.04? [23:11] Guest55347: you've completely lost me [23:11] skweek: did you install hoover? [23:11] compared to previous versions, pages dont refresh, or lock [23:11] lol tgm4883 [23:11] <_3vi1_> skweek: Happen in all browsers? [23:12] nope only in firefox here. [23:12] chrome works just fine [23:12] tgm4883: nothing appropriate, well chromium and firefox [23:12] tgm4883, i find it suspicious actually that even when not checking the box to check for updates. it still tries to do something over the internet. [23:12] _3vi1_: well chromium and firefox [23:12] its like installing windows 10, you ahve to literally unplug the ethernet cable so it don't do no funny stuff [23:12] Guest55347: you can find that suspicious all you want, but all it means is that you can't comprehend the words on the screen [23:13] tgm4883, this is why the issues don't get fixed [23:13] youa re the perfect example of why... [23:13] Guest55347: and why is that? [23:13] <_3vi1_> c'mon guys... keep it civil. [23:13] tgm4883, any idea how to fix my wifi problem (it cant find wireless networks after waking from sleep) [23:13] tgm4883, you pretend they are not issues. [23:13] you tell yourself its just user error and think happy thoughts. [23:14] <_3vi1_> Guest55347: I don't think he said it wasn't an issue. [23:14] Guest55347, talk about it in ubuntu-discuss. this channel is for support only [23:14] _3vi1_, he said "I couldn't comprehend the text on the screen" [23:14] squinty, and you are telling me in 10 years you never heard of such a thing... [23:14] Guest55347: Wow, really driving my last statement home aren't you. I never said it wasn't an issue. I said that you don't understand what "download updates" means vs that it could possibly be downloading other items that aren't on the disk. Further, my point of "that's not a bug report" is exactly why it's not getting fixed. Because if nobody files a bug [23:14] report, then no developers know about it [23:14] thats linux in a nutshell [23:15] Guest55347, so now you are here, on succesfully installed ubuntu ? [23:15] tgm4883, when you unplug the ethernet cable the download updates box fades to grey and everything installs fine. [23:15] the whole idea of that box is to not connect to the internet imo. [23:15] the text is pretty easy to comprehend, its common sense. [23:15] Guest55347: on the contrary, I completely believe you that it's an issue and probably a bug. But you complaining about it here rather than filing a bug report is going to get you nowhere [23:16] tgm4883, and thats why alot of issues don't get fixed. [23:16] most people know to come to here or the forums [23:16] Guest55347: So we both agree then... [23:16] <_3vi1_> Guest55347: Perhaps the box could be labled better, but that's not the point of it. You should submit that to launchpad as well. [23:16] filing a bug? how? where? [23:16] !bug [23:16] If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [23:16] Hello All. Is there an app in Ubuntu repos for Bugzila reporting? [23:16] Guest55347: your package that you are looking for would be 'ubiquity' [23:17] ubuntu-bug ubiquity [23:17] Guest55347: yes [23:17] i type that in a terminal? [23:17] Guest55347: yes [23:17] lol [23:17] <_3vi1_> correct [23:18] any idea how to fix my wifi problem (it cant find wireless networks after waking from sleep) [23:18] before this fresh installation.. it used to work fine [23:18] codfection, you have to file bug report lol [23:18] <_3vi1_> lol [23:18] haha. === nacc is now known as Guest64822 === nacc_ is now known as nacc [23:19] irc should change its topic then [23:19] that's right Guest55347, just make jokes and whine, don't do anything to improve the free os you're trying to figure out... [23:19] <_3vi1_> codfection: I've seen that one once or twice myself (16.10). Guest55347's actually right... we should bug that on launchpad. [23:20] codfection: do you mean the same version of ubuntu would find wireless networks after waking from sleep? [23:20] tgm4883, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1584256 [23:20] Launchpad bug 1584256 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "https://askubuntu.com/questions/774967/installation-is-retrieving-file-56-of-56-for-ages" [Undecided,New] [23:20] nacc, yes but before this clean installation [23:20] please note that this time I installed without internet due to some bugs lol [23:20] tgm4883, now how do i go about reporting bug for fullscreen flickering with latest nvidia prop drivers? [23:20] and later updated and upgraded and full upgraded. [23:20] nacc, 16.04 [23:21] <_3vi1_> Guest55347: That would be reported in the nvidia forum... hold on while I get the link... [23:21] Guest55347: I would guess that's probably filed against the nvidia package, which IIRC is nvidia-VERSION [23:21] _3vi1_, tks [23:21] or possibly xorg [23:21] <_3vi1_> Guest55347: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/board/98/ [23:22] Guest55347, good luck expecting help from nvidia regarding drivers. [23:22] codfection, ya like I siad i was down this road regarding bc2 on windows [23:22] codfection, its all a conspiracy [23:23] codfection: can you pastebin the `dmesg` output after you come back from suspend? [23:23] <_3vi1_> codfection: They've actually been fixing a lot of stuff lately. I'm pretty happy with them (though I could be happier). [23:23] new drivers are for new cards, and all they do is mess up older cards [23:23] nacc, but the internet wont work. pastebin would? [23:23] after suspend [23:23] that was always known 15 years ago, somewhere along the line the philosophy changed to always have the altest driver.... [23:23] /close [23:23] codfection: ah, does the internet work on reboot? sorry, i figured you're on irc now, so you have internet somwhere... [23:23] which would make sense if it was for security purposes. but of course that is not why... [23:24] nacc, yes after reboot :( [23:24] udpating drivers is the worse thing you can do for a computer system... [23:24] Guest55347, agreed hehe [23:24] always was the case and always will be. unless for security purposes [23:24] codfection: ok, so you'll probably need to s/r, `dmesg > dmesg.log`, reboot, then `cat file | pastebinit` === [Mr_Red]OFF is now known as Mr_Red [23:25] nacc, I need to run this command after suspend or reboot [23:25] Guest55347: please take fud and non-support discussion elsewhere [23:25] lmao [23:25] nacc, and thats why linux is what it is [23:25] Guest55347: no, there is a specific channel for discussion [23:25] codfection: i'd like to see it after suspend, please, but you can only pastebin after reboot [23:25] this channel is for support [23:25] tgm4883, but he called truth fud. [23:26] Guest55347: i have no idea what you mean, but you're offtopic for a support channel [23:26] alright nacc [23:26] hi guys [23:26] is there anywhere I can see a comparison of all of the different ubuntu forks? [23:26] Guest55347: Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man [23:26] tgm4883, not an opinion, over 20 years of experience. [23:26] TopKuk: *flavors [23:26] or if anyone has any recommendations for ubuntu forks I'd appreciate hearing them [23:27] TopKuk, mint [23:27] Guest55347: in any case, #ubuntu-discuss or #ubuntu-offtopic is what you are looking for [23:27] TopKuk, or trisquel if you don't need prop drivers. [23:27] TopKuk: Guest55347 this is also off topic [23:27] I've heard a lot of people say there are problems with the way Mint updates the kernel though [23:27] <_3vi1_> TopKuk: like https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFlavors ? [23:27] oh if this is the wrong place sorry about that [23:27] thanks for the link [23:28] TopKuk: this channel is geared towards support for ubuntu [23:28] TopKuk, they only update for security purposes. but if you choose to you can update the kernel to 4.4 manually in their gui === JanC is now known as Guest59129 === JanC_ is now known as JanC [23:28] TopKuk, also mint 18 coming out in a few months which is based on 16.04 [23:28] alright think I'll go with Lubuntu since the laptop I'm installing it on is quite old [23:28] TopKuk, lubuntu is a good choice [23:29] Is it necessary to run apt-get update after adding a gpg key to /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/, or will apt simply notice it the next time I try to install a package? [23:29] <_3vi1_> TopKuk: Good choice. I used to use LXDE on my PS3, and it worked well with a very small footprint. [23:29] ya lxde is great for xp replacements. [23:30] lubuntu is a nice spin === Mr_Red is now known as [Mr_Red]OFF [23:33] is there any way to enable the proprietary drivers inside of a running live system? [23:33] Depends what the driver is [23:34] Video, no [23:34] nvidia-361 [23:34] <_3vi1_> Guest47778: you will at least have to restart the DE [23:34] any solution that doesn't involve rebooting works. [23:34] Gur to using the other one on the flyest47778: Well, you can enable them. But as _3vi1_ said. You can't just switch ove [23:34] meh [23:35] Guest47778: Well, you can enable them. But as _3vi1_ said. You can't just switch over on the fly [23:35] <_3vi1_> genii: Someone move your enter key? :) [23:35] Cuff touched the touch pad at a place further back in what I already wrote [23:35] i'm okay with needing to restart X [23:36] Then yes, it's entirely possible. [23:37] on Kubuntu, Guest47778 ? [23:37] yes [23:38] Hello [23:38] Where would be the proper location for wp-cli.phar to be stored as if it were installed via Ubuntu package? Would that be /usr/local/bin? [23:38] skinux: generally, packages from Ubuntu don't put anything in /usr/local [23:38] OerHeks, is there anything special i need to do, or can i just kill X after apt-getting the nvidia drivers? [23:39] skinux: that's for strictly local installations, not packaged installations [23:39] <_3vi1_> Guest47778: I think you just need to install the driver, then restart your dm [sudo service restart (kdm or lightdm)]. Am I right, guys? [23:39] Yes. So in this case likely sddm [23:39] skinux: is that an executable? do a -> whereis w--cli.phar <--- otherwise, do a "find" [23:39] <_3vi1_> Ah yeah... forgot about sddm [23:39] * Guest47778 is using a live system [23:40] bprompt: I think he's asking where it should go. It's not a file in the archive [23:40] skinux: what package provides that binary, do you know? [23:40] nacc: it's not in the archive [23:40] Guest47778: By "live system" you mean the livedvd/usb, or a system booted up normally? [23:40] the live usb [23:40] skinux: are trying to find it, or trying to put it somewhere for later execution? [23:40] brb [23:40] tgm4883: skinux: ah, a packaging question more generally? [23:41] skinux: executables should probably go in /usr/bin [23:45] _3vi1_, https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/937030/linux/fullscreen-flickering-on-asus-gtx-650-ti-in-linux-desktops-/ [23:45] dam I should of put video.
