Trying to access it but get nothing but a gray screen. I've googled but the suggestions don't resolve. [00:16] onlyonelaserman: that can happen if nothing is running in your vncserver's windowing environment === grubles_ is now known as grubles [00:17] onlyonelaserman: meaning, try launching an xterm to that "screen" or whatever [00:18] nacc: I found one suggestion to run startsfce4 and was able to access the desktop but it was a xubuntu looking desktop. What is the command for Ubuntu? [00:18] nacc: that was startxfce4. [00:19] onlyonelaserman: right, so you started xfce (as the name implied) in that case [00:19] onlyonelaserman: do you mean what is the corresponding version for gnome? [00:20] nacc: I guess that would be the better term. Yes. [00:20] onlyonelaserman: i think you want to run 'gnome-session', but not sure [00:21] nacc: I'll work with that and go from there to see if I can get the desktop I'm expecting. Thanks.

[00:41] Anyone here to give out some help? I'd appreciate it. [00:42] Turbonium: if you don't have Swap swappiness has no effect [00:42] Thanks [00:42] teward: no, it makes no difference [00:42] Turbonium: if you *add* swap later, either as a swap file or a partition, then it would matter. [00:42] ok [00:42] somsip: E:Mishighlight, correctHighlightTarget = Turbonium [00:43] ;) [00:43] teward: oh yeah - ooops [00:44] I have another question, is there any way to speed up a usb installed Ubuntu 16.04? [00:44] It is slow to start programs and update [00:44] Normally when you install an application on Ubuntu derivatives the icon shows up in /usr/share/applications...if I follow the directions here https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en#linux where does it put it and how to I run it without having to enter the terminal command? [00:44] But i have a very powerful pc [00:44] Turbonium: your bottleneck is USB [00:45] Turbonium: use an actual hard disk install, on the machine. [00:45] they say don;t isntall it under root so don't put it in /usr etc [00:45] if that's not an option, you're limited to the speed of USB which is far lower than what you would want it to be [00:45] dumberer: I store it in /home/$USER/tor-browser-bundle/... but that's just me [00:45] teward: how do you launch it then? does it put an icon somewhere? [00:46] dumberer: so you aren't reading their instructions. [00:46] it says to save it somewhere and extract, then use a command to run it [00:46] well I read them...it says to launch it with the command...I would like to have a shortcut so I can have an icon in docky to launch it [00:46] rather than type a terminal command each time [00:47] dumberer: you are free to create such a shortcut. I used that command, then locked Tor Browser to the taskbar [00:47] ah ok [00:47] sorry I am a super noob and even some basic linux tasks elude me [00:47] their point is where you should install it, and that it should run under userspace. [00:47] so launch it then pin it to docky? [00:47] dumberer: not sure about docky, only know about Unity. That should work maybe? [00:48] ok...next question..I do have it installed...I cant remember how as it was a while back...and its in the downloads folder and I run it from there by opening the TBB folder and clicking the icon [00:48] how do I move that to a better place...or should I just remove it and start over? [00:49] at the time I installed it I downloaded rather than let the archive manager handle it [00:49] dumberer: no harb it being in there [00:49] and cant recall how I did it [00:49] harm* [00:50] id rather move it somewhere else to clear the download folder out....can I just drag it into the home folder you advised? [00:50] or will that bork the launching? [00:51] anyone here know anything about nvidia and 16.04? [00:51] tor-browser_eng-US is the folder [00:53] can I just move that folder to /home/$user? [00:54] dumberer yes you should be able to [00:54] and thats a safe non root place for it right? sorry don't udnerstand the structure well [00:55] afraid of breaking things [00:56] i tried to make backups via rdiff to a local mounted filesystem (crypt) which source file is from a dir mounted via sshfs. after a while, the folder with the filesystem mounted is not responding. is there any other way to create backups on a remote untrusted storage? [00:56] dumberer /home/$user is your user folder so yes it is NON ROOT It is your user folder [00:57] pasjrwoctx: thank you...and if I want to remove the TBB can I just "delete" the folder from there or do I need to somehow pruge it or remove some other way? since it won't be in the software center I can't use that option [00:58] dumberer: if it's just in the folder where you extract it, remove the folder (delete it) [00:58] cliffer1 the fastest way I know of, is to boot up via live cd, mount filesystem A and b copy files from A to B \ [00:58] pasjrwoctx: it should be a permanent solution to backup things [00:58] thanks teward [00:59] cliffer1 sorry that is the way I have been doing it since 9.04 [01:00] teward: when I launch TBB with the intent to Pin it in the dock it just puts another dot under Firefox [01:01] it doens't put it's own green planet icon TBB has [01:01] so I can't pin it [01:01] dumberer: sounds like you're on an old version possibly; an older version of Tor used to do that [01:01] dumberer: that's also a known issue because it *runs* a version of Firefox [01:01] unfortunately nothing I can do to help with that one [01:02] does anyone know how to create Separate X Screen in ubuntu 16.04 [01:02] it says its updated === inteus_ is now known as inteus [01:03] my ubuntu is crashing unexpectedly, where do i find the crash reports to figure out what is going on? [01:05] like, where is the crash error logged to [01:07] kholdstayre, could try /var/log depending on what caused the crash etc, the actual incidence may not be written to any particular log file [01:07] kholdstayre, logs are in /var/log i would look at syslog [01:07] teward: I figured it out...if you just drag the launcher icon into the dock it stays there and opens under that icon instead of FF [01:09] kholdstayre, also, if you type log in the dashboard you'll see a gui for reading logfiles [01:11] squinty, pauljw thx for the help. i locked my comp with crtl+alt+del, and when i tried to log back in the X window crashed and my session was dropped. lost all my open files. been having some problems like this for the past couple wks, decided its time to try and diagnose the problem [01:14] I have docky installed on Xubuntu 14.04...somehow in the past I was able to get a folder for /usr/share/applications pinned to the dock as I liked having a one click access to all installed apps and use it as a launcher...but I can't recall how I was able to get it there...if I just copy /usr/share/applicaitons to the desktop for example it says its not a trusted launcher [01:14] does anyone know how I might have gotten that pinned to the dock? [01:14] kholdstayre, if you're using Unity, use ctrl-alt-l to lock your session. [01:14] with media folders you just drag and drop but this is a root folder [01:17] so I was wrong about ubuntu being why my pgl is not working === cooloutac is now known as Guest22506 [01:18] its that the lists are no longer free [01:18] 9.99 for the year aint a bad price though I've their daily lists for so many years they deserve a subscription [01:18] what are you talking about? [01:19] willpz, sorry i'm talking to myself. iblocklist.com [01:19] i got banned from here for complaining my peerguardian wasn't working right in ubuntu, because apparenltyh the debian version already has a more up to date list by default [01:20] so i thought it was ubuntu's fault, but its not its just the fact you can't update from them anymore for free. [01:20] just wanted to set the record straight [01:20] figured it out....had to sudo into thunar...then drag it to the dock [01:23] sorry for my behavior yesterday [01:24] any1 ther [01:24] jay_: ask a real question/ [01:25] sry I just installed this distro and this is my first time on this thing [01:25] this just a chat?

I can save to the file fine and tryed chmod and use sudo when I have to. [01:38] Turbonium: what are its permissions? [01:39] currently -rwxrwxr-x [01:40] Turbonium: nothing wrong there. Maybe a mame installation issue. How did you install it? [01:40] hello, how i can use wildcard with the command route -nv add ? [01:40] How do I find out the package name dd is in? [01:41] Turbonium, remove ~/.mame/mame.ini and go back in> cd ~/.mame &run mame -cc # this will create correct owner [01:41] !find dd | BenSolo [01:41] BenSolo: Found: adduser, libcdio-cdda1, libmdds-dev, libnetaddr-ip-perl, php7.0-xml, python-bsddb3, python-bsddb3-dbg, python-bsddb3-doc, python-ipaddr, python-ipaddress (and 288 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=dd&searchon=names&suite=xenial§ion=all [01:41] i try to add *.googlevideo.com [01:41] Turbonium, from http://www.upubuntu.com/2012/10/how-to-install-mame-multiple-arcade.html [01:41] Well i don't think so since everything else works fine and it says you can remove it from 'Ubuntu Software'. I might of 'sudo apt-get install mame' it. [01:41] that isnt helpful but thanks? [01:41] BenSolo, or go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/ [01:42] BenSolo: try this then: dpkg -S dd [01:42] just returns dozens of directories [01:43] hello [01:43] I just need the package name so I can upgrade dd without doing an entire update [01:43] BenSolo: no, it returns all matches. If you "dpkg -S dd | grep utils" you will see the binary comes from coreutils [01:43] somsip: Yeah well how was I supposed to know thta, I asked how to get the package name.. [01:44] thanks for being so cyptic lmao [01:44] BenSolo: give a man a fish...etc. [01:44] i need to bypass *.googlevideo.com to my vpn [01:44] i use openvpn server [01:44] great says its the newest version... really cause that version of dd is 2 years old [01:44] BenSolo, go to that url and see a concise listing then [01:45] He already told me its coreutils [01:45] i have a access root in the vps [01:45] but it says coreutils is up to date, ugh [01:45] BenSolo, who is "he"? lose the attitude [01:45] I have no attitude. [01:45] squinty: I've ignored him, so I really dont care [01:45] The person who told me it is coreutils [01:46] somsip, ok :-) [01:46] Good, you aren't he;lping anyone anyways [01:46] and your upstream is horrible.

I have one problem with volume notifications popping up all the time(the bubble notification showing volume level via notifyosd). This behavior happens when I try 16.04 in live environment as well.

Is it my conclusion I right option? [06:35] ok, but it was working ok before, and only now everything is lagging, and on the other computer everything is ok so far.. [06:35] taiga_: tried a pulseaudio restart perhaps? [06:35] akis, The dpkg -i won't install a thing from the server. It just tries as best to get everything running for you and if it can't because of dependencies then you'll get a message that you should run "apt-get -f install" which then will download the missing dependencies from the internet === benonsoftware is now known as Guest30663 [06:37] lotuspsychje: I haven't tried yet, let me give it a shot, thanks.

[06:39] akis, yeah [06:40] lotuspsychje: no luck [06:40] lyze: excellent so my available mb from my cell phone maybe are enough to install the software [06:41] taiga_: might be a notify bug perhaps? [06:41] akis, yeah probably. Also if you have access to a not data capped internet right now on a different pc then I'd recommend generating a download script from synaptic or use keryx for that since that'll download everything for you onto a usb stick: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware (search for offline) [06:42] lotuspsychje: http://askubuntu.com/questions/767466/sound-card-being-disconnected-reconnected-constantly this is the post I referenced [06:43] akis: if you want to install software on an unconnected computer, check out apt-offline.

At first, it just booted straight to Windows, no GRUB, and no partitions other than HDD, USB, CD options (ie I could not select the linux partitions). I asked for some help and figured out it was booting in legacy mode, so I was helped through fixing/updating GRUB. Now it boots strai [07:53] ght to GRUB, but the only options are "Ubuntu, Advanced Options, Memtest1, Memtest2." How do I get windows 10 to show up in GRUB? [07:54] That's the thing though, I can't seem to install that driver [07:55] Guest9896, Did you download and read the instructions avalible on the same website? [07:56] Oh, and I forgot (obviously very important), booting to Ubuntu fails, and I get "Mount failed for selinuxfs on /sys/fs/selinux: No such file or directory." [07:56] I did.

[08:07] mindofmateo, no... it uses apparmor by default but you can apt-get selinux which will remove apparmor with which it is in conflict with [08:07] Alright, I just wanted to confirm what google says.

While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [08:19] Jyzer, HTML5 playrer ? [08:19] yes [08:19] Jyzer, how's your system load ? [08:19] w; htop (install if you don't have it)à [08:19] only using browser [08:19] and that load fast [08:19] do what I said if you want help :p [08:20] ?? [08:20] tell me the load of your systtem and the state of your RAM usage using htop [08:20] i answered you [08:20] ok [08:20] and the load using "w" in terminal [08:21] htop 60% [08:21] now 33 [08:22] says cpu 99 wtf [08:22] first [08:22] is that normal? [08:22] firefox using 99 cpu? [08:22] k1l: I did not upgrade yet, because right after the release there were some unstability reports. [08:23] thms_work [08:23] Jyzer, i completely got rid of flash and found out i didn't need it... youtube converted all their videos to h.264 [08:23] Maybe 16.04 is getting stable. [08:23] by now. [08:23] Jyzer, heres your problem. So use htop to sort by cpu using F9 [08:23] Atleast some of the issues are resolved. [08:23] Jyzer, F6 sorry [08:24] Kill all the CPU and memory intensive things, and try with firefox. [08:24] If not working, kill all including firefox and try with chromium [08:24] i only run webbrowser.. [08:24] thats all i got [08:24] loading [08:25] but loading at 99% [08:25] and chromium lag too [08:25] yes.. [08:25] I run two browers I'm at 7% [08:25] my cpu maybe fucked then? [08:25] I stopped using chromium I use firefox [08:25] worked fine on windows.. [08:25] Not at all Jyzer [08:25] must be a bug somewhere that's eating all your CPU. [08:25] Now you know the problem, find a solution :/ I'm at work sorry :) [08:25] Jyzer: what are the numbers behind 'load average'? [08:26] ducasse will take care of u [08:26] flash is a 50 MB download of malware [08:27] when i start yt video the cpu goes high [08:27] and video lag a bit === [Saint_] is now known as [Saint] [08:28] i tried everything [08:28] Jyzer: what video card and what driver is in use?

[08:31] i think i fixed the flash problem [08:31] Cool! [08:31] k1l: http://termbin.com/r01d [08:31] i uinstalled ubuntu [08:31] fixed the issue [08:31] jk [08:32] i uinstalled adobe flashplayer [08:32] thinky: why do you add wily repos to your xenial system? [08:32] works now [08:32] I don't know. === Drac0 is now known as Guest23631 [08:32] k1l: to install dropbox? [08:32] really? [08:33] thinky: that is wrong. dont mix repos. you cant use 15.10 repos on 16.04 [08:33] i just noticed that dropbox icon is not at top bar [08:33] it was use to be there [08:33] i didnt know that k1l [08:33] Obviously not. That is why there are different repos for different versions. [08:33] how can i remove it and install correct one? [08:34] thinky: open the systemsettings -> update &software and change that ppa from dropbox to be "xenial" instead of wily [08:34] OMGGGGGGG IT STILL LAG [08:34] thinky [08:35] atticus [08:35] Sorry. [08:35] Sort of a meta question: browsing the Ubuntu website, before the download page where they ask you for donations, what does "I want convergence now" refer to/mean? [08:35] videoes still lag [08:35] how do i fix video lag?? [08:35] k1l: i clicked on "edit" and then there is "distributor : wily" i changed it to "xenial" is that correct? [08:35] mindofmateo: then your donations go to the team that develops it. [08:36] Hi, my ubuntu 16.04 freezes some minutes after using it after being logged in. I've switched graphics driver from nvidia to nouveau. The problem worsened (happens now after shorter period of time) with recent upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04. I've logged in via ssh to track syslog. On freeze 1) ssh does not react any more 2) tail -f /var/log/syslog does not show any error at all. Even after inspecting it after [08:36] thinky: its "distribution" but yes [08:36] mindofmateo: convergence refers to the way unity 8 will work regardless of the device [08:36] rebooting the system I can't identify any log entry relating to the problem. [08:36] it is now : http://linux.dropbox.com/ubuntu xenial main [08:36] k1|: I guess what I'm asking is what does "converence " mean inthis conext? [08:36] akik: Oh, ok thanks. [08:36] Try reinstalling. [08:36] bwe: did you upgrade or clean install? [08:37] ducasse: I upgrade [08:37] mindofmateo: search for the ubuntu tablet m10. there that will be explained [08:37] !ltsupgrade | bwe [08:37] bwe: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. [08:37] k1l: W: The repository 'http://linux.dropbox.com/ubuntu xenial Release' does not have a Release file. [08:37] N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use. [08:37] atticus_: please stop everyone he should just reinstall. that is no helpfull [08:37] Okay. [08:38] Sorr about that. [08:38] Sorry about that. [08:39] bwe: you should not upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 until 16.04.1 is released, you need to restore from backup. [08:39] <[Saint]> Have any of you guys every messed around with cryptsetup early ssh remote unlocking? [08:39] ducasse: I've known that I should upgrade not before July 21st. However, I decided to upgrade before. But is that related to my problem at all? [08:39] <[Saint]> *ever [08:40] bwe: because the upgrade path is not ready yet. [08:41] ducasse: Admittedly, you are right. However, I want to identify the cause of the sudden system freeze (mouse, keyboard does not react, ssh does not respond, nothing suspicious in syslog). Can you help me with that (well, it happened on 14.04 and happens on 16.04)? [08:42] how can i remove dropbox and its repository completely ? [08:42] k1l: are u there? [08:42] bwe: your system is now broken, as i said you need to restore from backup. when you have a consistent system we can start solving problems. [08:42] changed wily to xenial didnt fix the problem i think [08:43] BWE <<< adding iommu=soft too your grub boot config does wonders ... [08:44] ducasse, how come /var/log/journal is not setup by the installer? [08:44] sveinse: because journald is not persistent by default. lennart's immaculate vision, i guess. [08:45] ducasse: There is no backup of the system itself. Can I install 16.04 afresh retaining user's config? [08:46] ducasse: hmm, ok. I had an unexpected reboot yesterday, and I have no eyes into the events leading up to the reboot. [08:46] bwe: i think the installer allows you to erase everything except /home, but i'm not certain. [08:47] sveinse: nothing suspicious in /var/log? [08:48] ducasse: No, nothing. But then again, a kernel panic might not show up there on the old logging scheme either. [08:48] ducasse, bwe only if /home is on its own partition already, then you can choose manual partitioning and choose to not format /home [08:48] bwe: Any reason you're using nouveau instead of nvidia blob? Which chipset do you use? [08:50] sveinse: no, it might not. all you can do at this point is enable persistent journald and hope it catches something if it happens again, i guess. [08:50] ciao [08:50] !list [08:50] zinzi: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». === ogra_` is now known as ogra_ [08:51] thinky: remove the [arch=i386,amd64] part [08:51] ducasse: Jup. Anything special I need to reload systemd to start logging into the persistent log? is daemon-reload enough? [08:51] hateball: okay. Thanks for that hint. Nvidia 6600 gt. [08:52] hateball: I switched to nouveau simply to test whether the problem persists. It does. [08:52] hateball: Do you advise me to do a fresh install? === jwheare_local_ is now known as jwheare_local [08:53] sveinse: reload systemd-journald.service i think, the man page says SIGUSR1 will cause it to flush the log to persistent storage. [08:53] bwe: you appear to have very old hardware. Are you absolutely sure this isn't a hardware problem? A fresh install might be a waste of time [08:54] Anyone expert in installing/preseeding? I managed to get a uefi preseeded stick to installing, but a script called "60remove-live-packages" is removing the packages I install during preseed and also big parts of ubuntu... [08:55] mcphail: It's not the newest hardware. But it's not the oldest. That's exactly why I am asking. How can I trace down the cause of the problem? [08:55] sveinse: also 'journalctl --flush' [08:56] bwe: I was going to suggest to try a later driver from the PPA but I am not sure your card is supported by that [08:56] bwe: load a live-usb/dvd and look at the logs on the hdd [08:56] bwe: I'd check all cables and connections, SMART check your disk, do a memcheck, swap out RAM modules, try your graphics card in another machine etc. Many of the system freezes reported on here are hardware related. My dodgy motherboard freezes without anything getting written to the logs [08:56] k1l: how can i remove [arch=i386,amd64] part ? [08:56] bwe: if you cant reach them from the installed system [08:57] thinky: look at the settings like you did just before [08:57] thinky: i dont know how or why you added that [08:57] there is no such thing [08:58] mcphail: I have the same symptoms overe here as you with your dodgy motherboard. [08:58] thinky: "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list" then remove it, then ctrl+o for saving and ctrl+x for leaving [08:59] bwe: I can get my mobo to run if I avoid certain SATA ports and USB3 ports. The other SATA ports do crash from time to time, but have the decency to write to the log first. But plug into a different SATA port and it just freezes without feedback [09:00] mcphail: So, who is to blame? motherboard manufacturer? kernel dev? [09:00] bwe: nothing the kernel dev can do about broken hardware [09:01] mcphail: So, is the motherboard broken? [09:01] bwe: possibly. [09:02] bwe: could also be the psu, memory etc. [09:02] bwe: I suspect some item of hardware is faulty. I'd check that first before a reinstall of your OS [09:04] ducasse: PSU has been recently swapped against brand new. [09:04] bwe: boot from a live usb/dvd, see how that behaves. run memtest.

I'll do that: https://bpaste.net/show/84884ea935a6 [09:08] http://paste.ubuntu.com/16652411/ [09:09] bwe: something like that, use smartmontools to check the disk. [09:10] thinky: i gave you exact instructions that do work. what did you do? [09:11] k1l: i did the command but ctrl+o and ctrl+x didnt work [09:11] instead it saved 2 same files [09:11] save.1 and save.2 [09:11] dont know ho [09:11] w [09:11] thinky: no, nano doesnt do that. [09:11] Hello [09:12] when i do ctrl+o it asked me rename [09:12] then nothing happened i had to ctrl+c and exit [09:12] The ubuntu installer (xubuntu actually) crashed telling me it might be related to a hard drive problem. [09:12] http://paste.ubuntu.com/16652411/ [09:12] What would be the next step to check this? [09:12] here what i did [09:12] "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | nc termbin.com 9999" [09:12] k1l: http://termbin.com/1da9 [09:13] thinky: ok, so you opened it in a GUI editor? right? [09:13] yes [09:13] thinky: ok so you lied to me [09:13] i deleted but it didnt delete [09:13] it saved a lot of times [09:13] k1l: i didnt [09:14] thinky: i said exactly what to do. i gave you the command you only had to copy and paste. if you dont want to do that stop asking me. [09:14] k1l: i dont understand how nano works [09:14] i did what u said exactly beleive me [09:14] thinky: i gave you the exact instructions. [09:15] k1l: look when i did sudo nano command it opened a place to edit [09:15] that is nano. [09:15] there was the link of dropbox http... i deleted and then i did ctrl+o command [09:15] after that it asked me to rename it , [09:15] then i didnt know what to do [09:15] i did ctrl+x but it didnt exit [09:16] it was still asking me to rename [09:16] then i had to ctrl+c to cancel [09:16] then edit the file as mentioned before (remove the arch.... part) then press crtl+o. which asked "should i overwrite the old file?" "yes". ctrl+x. done [09:16] let me try again [09:17] k1l: File /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list is being edited (by root with nano 2. [09:17] gedit [09:17] thinky: you still have several editors and guis open. [09:18] there is nothing k1l [09:18] i think i did something wrong [09:18] thinky: but i have to leave now for work again. so maybe others will help you with the mess you did. [09:18] :S [09:18] ok thanks k1l have a good work [09:19] there was no arch [09:19] just same http link then i deleted [09:19] thinky: can you run 'cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list | nc termbin.com 9999' ? [09:19] ok ducasse [09:20] ducasse: $ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list | nc termbin.com 9999 Use netcat. [09:20] thinky: then run 'cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list | netcat termbin.com 9999' [09:21] ducasse: $ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list | netcat termbin.com 9999 Use netcat. === Dave____ is now known as Dave [09:21] thinky: wth? run 'sudo apt-get install pastebinit' [09:22] thinky: ignore the warnings about dropbox. === kisb_ is now known as kisb [09:22] is it possible just to delete anything related dropbox please? [09:23] yes purge [09:23] anything in the sources.list.d [09:23] i dont wanna see those warnings :S [09:23] locate and delete the repo [09:23] how can i? [09:24] N: Ignoring file 'dropbox.list.save.1' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension [09:24] thinky: it's not hard to fix, install pastebinit, then pastebin the source file. i will edit it for you.

[09:25] thinky: 'pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list' [09:25] i am really ignorant about ubuntu [09:25] ducasse: ~$ pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list You are trying to send an empty document, exiting [09:25] sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list.save* [09:26] kisb: yes it deleted all of them [09:26] i think nothing left named dropbox [09:26] right? [09:26] how can we check if it is totally removed? [09:26] no its still there [09:27] yes kisb i just cheked and it is still in apps list [09:27] thinky: you still have the corrupted file 'sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list*' [09:27] thought you just wanted to fix the error [09:27] kisb: lets remove and we can fresh install [09:27] sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox* [09:28] removed the files [09:28] no warning now but i think dropbox is corrupted [09:28] it doesnt run or do anything just icon stays there [09:29] so now what should i do ? [09:30] I've got a laptop with 3200x1800 px, and everything's tiny - how can I change the interface size? [09:30] just reinstall or delete it. choose one [09:30] thinky: 'dpkg -l | grep dropbox | pastebinit' [09:31] I manually removed a package (nginx). Now when I reinstall it using apt install it does install but not all the default dirs are created. so now /etc/nginx or /var/log/nginx etc [09:31] any ideas? [09:31] ducasse: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16652552/ [09:32] found the settings for general menu size - is there one for general font size or will that screw everything over? [09:32] thinky: 'sudo dpkg -r dropbox' [09:32] ducasse: done [09:32] removed totally ? [09:32] i cant see dropbox icon in apps anymore [09:32] Bent0, what do you mean by manually removed [09:32] Removed /etc/nginx /etc/init.d/nginx [09:33] and other paths [09:33] thinky: now it's gone. if you want to install it again you need to follow the instructions on the dropbox site carefully. [09:33] ducasse: it just lets me download .deb file [09:33] is there any instruction to install dropbox properly ? [09:33] thinky: then do that, then install it. [09:33] Now I can reinstall nginx and I can start the executable but it complains a lot of paths are not found. So the package installer does not create them for some reason. Probably because it thinks its already there [09:33] Bent0, that was a bad idea, next time use apt purge or synaptic to remove. [09:34] kisb: Okay. But where do I go from here [09:34] Bent0: sudo apt-get install --reinstall nginx should recreate anything that's ising [09:34] *missing [09:35] Yeah I tried that too somsip. Doesnt create the dirs [09:35] ducasse: that was how i did earlier but it turned with error [09:35] warning not error [09:35] Bent0, reinstall using apt install --reinstall [09:35] kisb: did that. didnt work [09:36] thinky: ok, maybe they don't have a version for xenial yet. i don't use dropbox, and it's not really supported here. [09:36] ducasse: https://www.dropbox.com/install?os=lnx [09:36] Bent0, are you sure you used the --reinstall option? [09:36] hexy [09:37] kisb: yes [09:37] http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/10-things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu-16-04-lts [09:37] i fick xou mama [09:38] Bent0, okay first purge it then reinstall [09:38] !ops | guest-SSGtd0 (before he learns how to spell...)

[09:56] Jakey3: basically, yes. also, some long options don't have short counterparts. [09:56] ok [09:57] Jakey3: the long form is a lot more readable in a script. [09:57] i see [09:57] MCMic have you read this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilesystemTroubleshooting [09:58] Jakey3: it's the same reason as why you should use --option rather than -o in scripts, especially if you share/publish.

[10:08] !details | loool [10:08] loool: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. [10:08] my linuxlite can not be works [10:08] :( [10:08] Anyone know of a similar issue and how to troubleshoot this? [10:08] loool: we only support ubuntu in this channel. You need linuxliste support [10:08] somsip: Oh, thought it would be more. That’s cheaper than keeping buying new HD. I’ll see if I can find one next time I go to a big city [10:08] i need my chrome passwords.. how can i reach it? [10:09] MCMic: yeah - not much. Try invadeit.co.th as a decent online store [10:09] any idea about it? [10:09] loool: it's still not supported here [10:09] loool: https://www.linuxliteos.com/support.html [10:09] hi :D [10:09] \o/ [10:10] somsip: The unhappy face was I don’t have aircon and I don’t have UPS so my hard drives are gonna crash /o\ [10:10] somsip: .. is it possible to sava my chromepasswords? whats your opinion? [10:10] so filter is just using grep with some extra options [10:10] loool: my opinion is you should take your enquiry elsewhere, and I'm ignoring you now [10:10] somsip: thanks [10:11] loool: not an ubuntu problem. [10:11] Hi all. I'm trying to format a drive (using slow / zero-fill format) for privacy. There seems to be a problem with the drive however - I keep getting this error: "Error erasing device: Error writing 1048576 bytes to /dev/sdb1: Input/output error (udisks-error-quark, 0)" - I assume some bits of the hardware are broken. Is there another tool I can use to format the bits that work? [10:11] I think it is xorg causing this problem but i am not sure [10:11] MCMic: if you have it powered on more than not, the humidity might not be a problem. If you leave it off for a while in humidity, it's not nice for the internals [10:11] i see.. ut as if u had the same problem ubuntu what u shoud do* [10:11] Can you help me install my free windows 10 upgrade? [10:11] loool: stop trying to find a loophole and go to the right channel [10:11] loool: we don't support chrome on ubuntu either. [10:12] K-arch: ##windows [10:12] ok bros thnnks bye [10:12] Is there anyone here that has any ideas about the issue ? [10:12] MCMic: getiting offtopic now so my final word on this, another online ordering site https://www.advice.co.th/search?keyword=ups [10:13] somsip: ok thanks [10:13] np [10:13] but I'm using Ubuntu isn't Ubuntu made by Microsoft [10:14] everson: check the smart data for the drive before using it at all. [10:14] I've been experiencing extremely nasty sync problems after upgrading 15.10 to 16.04 on one of my boxes, and after simply dist-upgrading 15.10 on the other. What's going on? (I'm on KDE, btw) [10:14] video sync problems, I mean [10:14] anabain: what chipset? [10:15] anabain: also we have #kubuntu :) [10:15] nick e [10:15] anabain: By sync I assumed v-sync/tearing, perhaps you meant something else === Guest62670 is now known as anonymous2208 [10:17] no, just that. Refreshing is poor, images flick, there are many artifacts... [10:17] hateball, ^ [10:17] help [10:17] somebody [10:18] can anybody help? [10:18] not until you describe your issue [10:18] !ask | anonymous2208 [10:18] anonymous2208: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [10:18] oh sorry bob [10:19] i got my raspberry pi 3 and i need like a hand suitcase for it you know the one like you see in movies the president got to launch nukes anyone know were i can buy one like that i've tried in ages never found one i need it to make a portable ethical hacking devicce please help me. [10:20] I'm stuck (and sad).. Got a new Clevo p771dm laptop. Has uefi and windows installed on main parititon. Has 2x m2 ssd.. I'm trying to install ubuntu, and I created a USB boot device on a 8gb drive I bought. It boots okay, let's me choose "Try Ubuntu" or "Install". When I click either however, it says "you need atleast 8.4 gb to use ubuntu". I'm not sure why I can't continue.. [10:20] My main parition is windows 10 with raid 1. uefi is enabled. [10:20] Nylas N1 doesn't seem to install after upgrading to 16.04, Any idea on a fix? [10:20] anabain: And what GPU chipset/driver are you using? [10:20] i guess nobody know my issue and can't help me ): [10:20] !patience | anonymous2208 [10:20] anonymous2208: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [10:21] sorry meatball' [10:21] hateball, from lspci: 03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Cedar [Radeon HD 5000/6000/7350/8350 Series] [10:21] nobody will answer you. While you wait ubottu so nobodys gonna help me [10:22] anonymous2208: that is not an ubuntu problem, ask in one of the raspberry channels. [10:22] anabain: I see. Well, I do not know much about AMD. What's changed is that fglrx is deprecated and you're now using radeonsi or amdgpu. I don't know if there's any tweaks you can do to make it behave nicer [10:22] theres no raspberry pi channel dude! [10:22] anabain: the drivers are in the kernel, so one thing you could try is to install a !mainline kernel and test with [10:23] anabain: Also tweak the compositing settings for kwin [10:23] anonymous2208: yes, there are. try '/msg alis list #raspberry*' [10:23] I tried compositing stuff, but things got worse..., hateball [10:23] okay i got another question a last one [10:24] gabriel: ask nylas, i guess. [10:24] how do i make my laptop able to charge via usb while its shut off i heard some people do that and i have seen it i want to do it it will be so much help to me === Habbie2 is now known as Habbie [10:25] anonymous2208: still not an ubuntu problem. [10:25] anonymous2208 this is a ubuntu support channel, try #hardware [10:25] PEOPLE that is a ubuntu problem [10:25] what should it else eb [10:25] be [10:26] Are the arch trolls out in large scale today [10:26] anonymous2208, You can only do it on certain usb ports.. the laptop has to have it enabled to power, not a ubuntu problem [10:26] anabain: Any difference if you disable effects completely? Toggle with alt+shift+f12 [10:27] LAYKE THANKS but makes no sence it dosent matter what usb port just one of them please help and how can it not be a ubuntu prob its inside the hdd right. [10:27] anonymous2208: ask in ##hardware [10:27] ok [10:27] anonymous2208: it's probably the usb port with yellow connector that you need [10:27] oh!!! [10:28] akik only got two black and one blue osb [10:28] Does anyone know if I can install ubuntu on m2 ssds? I don't know why when I boot from my usb it says that I don't have enough disk space. (Which makes me think that it can't see any available volumes). My usb is an 8Gb one.. But says it needs atleast 8.4 to install. [10:28] hateball, it worked perfectly!! :) [10:28] how come? [10:28] i will try going to hardware thanks [10:28] ##hardware [10:28] WONT WORK [10:28] anabain: Right, so there is some problem with your card/driver and the compositing in kwin [10:28] ##join channel hardware [10:28] Layke: you need to free up a partition. create free space from windows. [10:28] anonymous2208, only yellow usb ports can charge whilst laptop is off. [10:28] who told me to do this it wont work [10:29] everson but then how can my desktop charge and it got no yellow usb ports [10:29] anabain: If you join #kubuntu there may be more people that know about plasma specifically, also it is less noisy [10:29] ducasse, I've done that I believe? When you say free up a partition, do I just want free space?.. ie, not a volume? [10:29] anabain: I'm thinking it should be able to be tweaked by changing rendering method. What things did you try yourself? [10:29] Layke: free disk space, you can create a partition from the installer. [10:29] EVERSON but then how can my desktop charge and it got no yellow usb ports [10:29] hateball, would it be better to wait until it is solved, right? I don't mind disabling embellishing stuff meanwhile. [10:30] anonymous2208, desktop motherboards differ from one to the next. Depends on your motherboard. Check your manual. [10:30] anonymous2208, relax [10:30] hateball, anyway, I tried some /etc/environment changes I found out there [10:30] i got no manual eVERSON its a laptop i didnt even get the name on the motherboard when i bought it its a lenovo pc.... [10:30] anonymous2208: go away now, you're just making noise. [10:30] anonymous2208, for laptops, only yellow usb ports charge when off. [10:30] hateball, __GL_YIELD="USLEEP" KWIN_TRIPLE_BUFFER=0 KWIN_USE_BUFFER_AGE=0 [10:30] anonymous2208, I am using a lenovo laptop too. [10:30] ducasse, Like this? http://imgur.com/AUnrEUD [10:31] okay thanks and ducasse sorry for being an idiodt [10:31] ducasse, The ubuntu parition is what I just created... [10:31] anabain: according to this it's fixed with a later driver https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=354753 [10:31] KDE bug 354753 in scene-opengl "AMDGPU driver: rendering artifacts" [Normal,Verified: fixed] [10:31] so now how do i join the hardware ? [10:31] anonymous2208, type: /j #hardware [10:31] anabain: so as I said, you can try a !mainline kernel. 16.04 uses 4.4, mainline has 4.6 [10:31] thanks EVERSON [10:31] bye [10:31] YOU'RE WELCOME [10:31] ducasse, One otherthing however, in my previous experience of installing ubuntu, I've always been presented with the ability to continue and create partiions from the installer myself. This isn't letting me even see any other drives/paritions [10:32] ok, hateball, but how can I get this kernel? [10:32] Layke: you have created an ntfs file system on it, just format it from the installer. [10:32] !mainline | anabain [10:32] anabain: 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 [10:32] guys i cant write in hardware why [10:32] !register | anonymous2208 [10:32] thanks, hateball, you've been so helpful [10:32] anonymous2208: Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode [10:32] ty [10:33] I'll give this a shot. I've deleted the file system.. so now I have 180gb unallocated.. [10:33] Ps. Do I want UEFI? Is that bad? [10:33] Layke: you said raid1. do you have empty space on those disks? [10:33] Layke: you should see the disk in the installer, it should be called /dev/nvmesomething. [10:33] akik, Yes I do [10:34] Layke: yes, you want uefi. [10:34] anabain: you're welcome, good luck [10:34] hateball and ubottu fuckiing seious i cant even write for help in free mode [10:35] ducasse, The problem I have is that I can't continue to see the disks.. the installer starts, then INSTANTLY after selecting the language "English" says... something like "You need at least 8.4gb to use Ubuntu". "Your current deviec has 7.8gb" [10:35] Layke: if disk 0 in your picture is the raid1 disk, there's no free space [10:35] My current device I assume is the usb device whcih is 8gb [10:36] ducasse, Wouldthis be correct? http://imgur.com/lekUzXr [10:36] how do i join the raspberry pi channel [10:36] Layke: the 8 gig usb device is the one which you put the ubuntu installation image on? [10:36] Yes [10:36] akik: you can't install ubuntu on the same usb device [10:37] Disk 1 has a bootable usb, that I followed from this guide. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows [10:37] Layke: that looks right. [10:37] I'll take a screenshot of the screen I get when I boot from the usb device [10:37] I'll be back in 5 minutes I guess. [10:38] (I'm worried that ubuntu can't see my m2 drives or something) [10:38] ducasse, These are what I have for raid1 http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/memory-storage/MZ-N5E500BW [10:39] I don't know why it would matter, but I just have cold sweats from remmebering how much of a problem windows used to have installing SATA drives on windows XP before you had driver support [10:39] So in my limited wisdom, assume maybe the new m2 drives might have similar issues? [10:40] somebody know how i can join a raspberry pi irc server [10:41] Layke: can you confirm that you have unpartitioned space on the m2 drives? [10:41] what does prompt="${1}" mean? [10:41] hello [10:41] i.e. ${1} [10:41] anonymous2208: /join #raspberrypi [10:41] My sound keeps jumping from headphones to lineout [10:41] akik, Yep. I think this screenshot confirms right? http://imgur.com/lekUzXr [10:42] Can someone tell me how to solve this issue? [10:42] I just deleted the volume I did have.. [10:43] ok ducasse [10:44] DUCASSE it wont work [10:44] try it your self [10:44] anonymous2208, If you struggle to use IRC, you might find more help in #freenode [10:45] layke i cant even write in freemode [10:45] anonymous2208: just did, i'm in there now. works fine. we are not here to teach you how to use irc. [10:45] DUCASSE im not a fucking maggot but when i write it and press enter in the chat nothing happens [10:45] akik, Happy with that screenshot?

[10:56] ducasse, Not all too sure on what I should search to try and fix [10:56] I could insert some other SSDs into the main sata ports? [10:56] Layke: how is the raid set up - firmware or windows? [10:57] Layke would you norammly connect ssds to sata ports.... [10:57] It's not a software raid, if that's what you are asking [10:57] Layke: that's what i'm asking :) [10:57] So firmware. I don't really want to switch to ACHI mode, since I'd lose the array right? And mess up everything [10:58] Layke: if you run it live, can you see the devices at all? [10:58] Nope. Exactly the same issue [10:58] Layke: No entries in /dev/nvme* ? [10:58] hateball, I can't get to a terminal. Not sure how. [10:58] hateball, (My main parititon has windows installed) [10:58] And I can'tboot live into Ubuntu to see any devices [11:00] The "Create a boot usb" guide, just said I needed 4Gb of space or something, so I thought the 8GB would be sufficient. That image though shows for boot installing, and when I try and live boot. http://imgur.com/hZBkljk [11:01] Layke: It looks like you're trying to install at once. I am talking about "try without installing" [11:02] hateball, Yep, me too. I know, the interface looks like I'm trying to install. but that dialog also shows when I press the "Try without installing" [11:02] I can do a very quick video of my process if this helps. [11:03] O, Actually, I just remembered, there was a very very quick error that popped up, something like.. Your controller is not recognised, you may experience problems. (That was on a black screen, that flashed for half a second) [11:03] I'llneed to do it again to find the exxact wording [11:04] Layke: you can jump to a tty and run dmesg to see anything interesting, switch with ctrl+alt+f1, get back to gui with ctrl+alt+f7 [11:04] Okay, I'll try that.

You will not be able to upgrade until 16.04.1 is released [11:42] ah [11:42] !ltsupgrade | Ntemis [11:42] Ntemis: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. [11:42] i dont understand why so late? [11:43] what id i dont want .1 [11:43] *if [11:43] Ntemis: always the way. Need to make sure the process is stable and supportable [11:43] i guess i have to wait [11:43] Ntemis: 16.04 will automatically become 16.04.1 anyway, so there is no avoiding it [11:44] btw this hdd had 12.04 before it went to 14.04 and now will go to 16.04 [11:44] can i use a command to free some junk or something? [11:45] Ntemis: bleachbit [11:45] installed [11:46] Ntemis: you can also check out deborphan [11:46] ducasse: and.. [11:46] now what i do with this? [11:46] Ntemis: run it :) [11:47] ah [11:47] now i see [11:49] I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS , enabled ufw and got locked out of ssh. Can't access the server and nothing is accessible through http anymore. Any ideas how can I fix this? === dupondje_ is now known as dupondje [11:49] encod3: disable ufw from the console? [11:49] encod3: go local and disbale it [11:50] ducasse: i guess he is trying to reach it remotely [11:51] ducasse, Ntemis, that's what I was afraid. I was trying to reach it remotely [11:51] encod3: yeah, that's not going to happen. sorry. [11:52] encod3: is this a vps? [11:53] Hi. My computer keeps connecting using both wired and wifi - is it possible to make it only connect to the WiFi if there is no wired? [11:54] encod3: if you could access it right now we would be talking about a major security hole in ufw [11:54] rubenwardy: make either default [11:58] rubenwardy or remove the wired connection in "configure network connections" [11:58] I just made is so I have to manually choose to connect to wifi [11:58] *it [12:00] rubenwardy i think wired gets priority over wifi if both are avail, but it doesnt really test if it gets internet connectivity over it i guess [12:01] maybe you can write a script to test for it, then instruct network manager to use the best option for internet connectivity based on the results of those tests? [12:01] Ah, so it isn't actually a problem to be connected to both (except for battery) === andreluiz is now known as andremilk [12:04] Ntemis: indeed. I just got access to it physicaly and disabled ufw [12:05] Now I have another problem, which is what I was trying to fix. I can't access some ports on the server. I'm using Plone and binding the ports to 0.0.0.0 [12:06] netstat -ltpn lists the port as listening [12:06] nmap reports the port as closed [12:07] the server was not configured by me, and clearly ports that were being used by other Plone instances, of old websites, are open to the outside, but apart from those, I can't reach the server [12:07] any ideas? [12:08] encod3: what is plone? [12:08] ducasse: its a CMS. https://plone.org/ [12:08] Just installed Trusty and my CLI screen is white with garbled text. I can barely make out its the login screen [12:08] Any ideas? [12:10] using the terminal how do I find the file named studio.sh [12:10] siema [12:10] co tam jak tam [12:10] easyOnMe: find / -name studio.sh or change / to search in other paths [12:10] siema [12:10] kiss me [12:10] bb one more time [12:11] okey my bf [12:11] IF YOU WANNA BE MY FRIEND [12:11] want to see y tnight [12:11] PUT MY DICK IN UR HAND [12:11] REKT [12:11] ohh lel [12:11] my god [12:12] ducasse: do you know if there's any magic way to specify which ports are accessible to the exterior? iptables and ufw are disabled. [12:12] *from the exterior [12:13] if you're not explicitly blocking with iptables/ufw they should all be accessible. [12:14] encod3: Or your application is only listening on localhost [12:14] Bent0: the app is listening on 0.0.0.0 [12:14] should be ok [12:16] i need to replace multiple occurrences of text in a line of text, sed only replaces first occurrence, what can i use to achieve this? [12:16] encod3: have you tried binding it to the ip address or interface explicitly? [12:16] g [12:17] ducasse: nop, I'm going to try that, thanks [12:20] ducasse: unfortunately it didn't work. Still connection refused and nmap reporting it as closed [12:20] hi. how do i make my skype appear up there next to the clock and all? [12:22] encod3: sorry, then i don't know. you can try in #ubuntu-server, maybe somebody there uses it. [12:25] hey! Im quite confused by ubuntus update system: Running sudo apt update shows me there are 7 upgradable packages, if then open the software updater to update those, it says my computer is up to da? [12:25] date* [12:25] ducasse: thanks, I will try there also :) [12:26] nvm [12:26] doing it from the commanndline now [12:27] I just don't get it... As soon as I use a preseed file my setup results in a crippled ubuntu server without "man" or "nano" or... [12:29] how can i add some colors to my bash script text ? [12:29] I can't seem to find the evolution-mapi plugin for evolution for 16.04 [12:30] soee: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prompt-HOWTO/x329.html [12:31] Anyone know or recommend and affordable private host? [12:31] That's quite outdated [12:33] Basically, a VPS? [12:33] wrong channel [12:34] I want to make one partition from two partitions with GParted, but it won't work. Can you tell me what I can do next? When I went to Linux it was at the time Windows XP wasn't supported any longer and I choose Dual Boot, but now I want to get ride of it. Can this be arranged or am I stuck to Dual Boot forever? [12:36] jaaphermsen: you tried to remove the windows partition, then move and resize the ubuntu partition? or something else? [12:37] Did Canonical stop producing non-graphical install isos? [12:37] hey there? [12:38] thomaaaas: there is no alternate iso anymore, but minimal still exists. [12:40] anyone using a pressed file at all with xenial? [12:40] geirha: Windows partition is deleted allready, but I can't resized it to Linux Ubuntu boot partition.. [12:41] jaaphermsen: you're trying this off the live session, or a gparted live cd? [12:41] akik, hateball ducasse This is the problem I seem to be having: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/31i0fl/error_on_boot_from_live_usb_14042_64_bit_3074160/ [12:41] jaaphermsen: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [12:41] hey EriC^^ [12:41] jaaphermsen: you want to delete windows xp right? [12:41] hi lotuspsychje_ [12:41] It looks like someone else has the same problem... Does that make sense to you? I don't really understand what it's descriving. [12:42] Master EriC^^ at work! [12:42] hey Queenslayer [12:42] How's it going EriC^^ ? [12:42] good thanks you? [12:43] hmm [12:43] I found out the problem to my uefi boot [12:43] I have a weird issue in xenial where unity won't start [12:43] Good thanks EriC^^ [12:43] after logging in, it just hangs [12:43] all I see is "OpenConnection: connect: No such file or directory" [12:43] EriC^^: it was the hardware [12:43] "cannot connect to br1tty at :0" [12:43] is there some cleanup or something that failed? [12:44] EriC^^: ehdci [12:44] Queenslayer: ah right [12:44] ehdci? or ahci? [12:45] Ahci [12:45] Not ed [12:45] EriC^^: i had to plug the USB out and plug it back in [12:46] It managed to find grub but then lost connection with medium [12:46] So hardware was losing power or bad USB stick [12:46] Help required: I believe that I can't installed Ubuntu because of an error "mmc0 Unknown Controller Version (3). You may experience problems.". I think that mmc controller is causing problems.. (no way to prove it, but that's the only error I'm getting that might help me if I fix it) [12:46] I'm sick of gmusicbrowser, which audio player do you use? [12:46] can anyone help me to hack with kali linux? [12:47] How can I disable my mmc0 ? [12:47] nielpro: 1) no 2) we don't support kali here, please use their channel: #kali-linux [12:48] got it!! [12:48] Queenslayer: oh [12:49] So managed to reinstall it in uefi [12:49] Thanks again though for your walkthrough. A lot of what you did makes sense now [12:50] cool [12:50] I'll have to try something else. Thanks for your help for now! [12:50] didn't we convert it to uefi? [12:53] completely off topic but not sure where to ask - other than google of course (and I’ve tried that!) can anyone recommend an open source web based help desk? [12:54] hi i followed this tutorial to setup ssh keys https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-ssh-keys--2 on my ubuntu server === vick is now known as Guest76406 [12:55] however i still cannot login with my keys [12:55] Failed to add the host to the list of known hosts (/home/a1/.ssh/known_hosts). [12:55] Agent admitted failure to sign using the key. [12:55] huwjr: rt, jira, etc. This might get your started: http://alternativeto.net/software/request-tracker/?license=free [12:57] tried jira, you can’t have an instance per project without losing your branding / vanity domains etc [12:57] do i have do the ssh keys as root === alexandr1 is now known as alexandros_c [12:57] ? [12:57] RT was what i used to use. thanks, going to look down that avenue again (completely forgot the name and couldn’t get it with a google) [12:58] EriC^^: i had to reinstall it. [12:58] And i managed to install it from uefi [12:58] """ [12:58] Queenslayer: oh ok [12:59] Jakey3: I guess u could get more help if you provide the output of the command. Run ssh in verbose mode (-v flag) [13:00] does anyone have experience running overlayfs backed by xfs on ubuntu 14.04.4 (with a 3.19 kernel linux-generic-lts-vivid package) [13:00] EriC^^: There's so many issues that can crop up with UEFI [13:00] i'm having trouble with docker wherein it runs some containers but doesn't run others [13:01] Queenslayer: yeah [13:02] EriC^^: some hardware is even locked to check windows EFI [13:02] can i install ytb in ubuntu? [13:03] nielpro: what is it? [13:03] So a single boot Ubuntu would have to be done with MBR [13:03] its youtube video downloader [13:03] <\9> Jakey3: sounds like your known_hosts is screwed up [13:03] Queenslayer: not really, there are some workarounds you can do usually [13:03] !info youtube-dl | nielpro [13:04] nielpro: youtube-dl (source: youtube-dl): downloader of videos from YouTube and other sites. In component universe, is extra. Version 2016.02.22-1 (xenial), package size 628 kB, installed size 3444 kB [13:04] EriC^^: like the one you did? [13:04] I tried to install Xymon on ubuntu I am getting these error (near the last line of this link http://paste.debian.net/699675/) .Can you help me please? [13:04] EriC^^: is it worth thd hassle in a single boot? [13:04] *the [13:04] <\9> Jakey3: try run: chmod 0644 ~/.ssh/known_hosts and try again [13:04] katerina_, \9 i will retry maybe i made a mistake [13:04] <\9> Jakey3: if it doesn't work, try to remove it [13:04] in the process [13:04] Queenslayer: no, it involves renaming the ubuntu file as the windows file to trick the bios [13:05] Yeah i was thinking that but didn't think it was possible [13:05] Queenslayer: it's pretty easy to do, if you're dual booting then you just edit an os-prober file so it searches for the right windows file which you backed up before renaming [13:06] How's that done? Just create a file as it would be in windows? [13:06] For a single boot i mean [13:06] Ubuntu [13:06] cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi [13:06] and cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi [13:07] if you're dual booting you back them up first as bootmgfw.efi.backup [13:07] Yeah i get you. Good stuff [13:07] ashrov: install debhelper, libc-ares-dev and librrd2-dev as the message tells you to. [13:07] hey i have downloaded that setup under wine it works thanks [13:07] then you edit /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/efi/20microsoft and replace bootmgfw.efi with bootmgfw.efi.backup so grub knows which file is now windows [13:08] thank you ducasse I will try [13:08] EriC^^: that's cool [13:09] katerina_, \9, here is the log http://paste.ubuntu.com/16654768/ [13:11] <\9> Jakey3: https://help.github.com/articles/error-agent-admitted-failure-to-sign/ [13:11] EriC^^: when did you start Linux? And Ubuntu even? [13:11] <\9> https://chrisjean.com/ubuntu-ssh-fix-for-agent-admitted-failure-to-sign-using-the-key/ [13:11] <\9> i found these links by simply googling the error [13:11] \9, yep just looking at that [13:12] same message after insatll [13:12] install the packages [13:12] Queenslayer: like 2 years ago [13:13] Been on Ubuntu only? [13:13] it erased my windows by mistake by a bug, and i used to daily (hated it a little at first) [13:13] Hehe [13:13] \9, yep that was this issue [13:13] then by the time i got windows installed back after using testdisk and extracting the image manually and what not and this uefi stuff [13:13] i was pretty hooked [13:13] duccase? [13:14] duccase [13:14] EriC^^: overcoming uefi issues hooks you onto Linux [13:14] ducasse [13:14] still I am getting this error: dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: Unmet build dependencies: libc-ares-dev librrd2-dev [13:14] Queenslayer: it's pretty solid i think, just lacks some software imho [13:15] In the link I sent, there is an error before it as you can see [13:15] so i keep windows still for itunes and stuff like that [13:15] Ubuntu? [13:15] http://paste.debian.net/699675/ [13:15] Yeah I've got windows for backup [13:15] I'm always booting into Linux [13:15] Battery life has improved massively [13:16] ashrov: re-run configure. [13:16] EriC^^: I put iTunes & Photoshop on TinyXP on VMWare on Ubuntu and I haven't looked back since [13:16] Queenslayer: yeah my pc runs really quiet on linux and feels more reponsive and stuff, and yeah this uefi stuff really made me learn a lot about booting and filesystems and stuff like that, using linux in general teaches you a lot about stuff like that [13:17] thomaaaas: I'm thinking of doing that for my windows but not proficient enough to do it yet [13:17] I run the command again : xymon@ubuntu:~/xymon-4.3.27$ ./build/makedeb.sh 4.3.27 [13:17] and I get the same result [13:17] EriC^^: i can also see why tweaking in Linux is easier too [13:18] I think it's an easier concept to grasp than windows [13:18] yeah everything is clear and on point and stuff [13:18] but without the problem in debhelper just libc-ares-dev librrd2-dev [13:19] has anyone come across this issue before in lubuntu [13:19] EriC^^: i want to eventually move to shell permanently [13:19] https://chrisjean.com/ubuntu-ssh-fix-for-agent-admitted-failure-to-sign-using-the-key/ [13:20] It's so fast and powerful [13:20] ashrov: ask the developer, or check the site for instructions. building of random tarballs is not really supported here. [13:21] I know i shouldn't say this on here but i want to be able to run BSD on the same PC. That's my goal [13:21] Queenslayer: shell and GUI are both great for different things, but bash scripting is the real time-saver. And it's BSD/OSX compatible [13:22] Exactly thomaaaas [13:22] But I'm going to learn Perl on the side. Compatibility and versatility [13:23] Queenslayer: IMO you should learn python + bash, forget about Perl. Perl is not an easy language at all [13:23] could you guys use #ubuntu-offtopic for that chatter? we try to keep this channel focused on the users who need technical ubuntu support. [13:23] k [13:23] Np [13:23] ok thank you I will try myself [13:24] how do i disable gnome keyring [13:24] is this advisable [13:24] ? [13:24] its affecting my ssh login [13:25] Hey chat, are there any obvious issues with adding my user into the www-data group? [13:25] EriC^^: driver issues. Did you have any? [13:25] Queenslayer: none so far [13:25] nicanaca0: not really. [13:25] EriC^^: Xubuntu doesn't detect my WiFi drivers and video is choppy [13:25] nicanaca0: no., that is a good solution to handle the www folder correctly [13:26] How can I find my graphics driver and backup files? [13:26] From Ubuntu btw [13:26] Queenslayer: sudo ubuntu-drivers devices [13:26] Lol, that easy? [13:26] Cheers [13:26] k1l, thanks dude. I've always assumed this was the lazy way and that doing chown -Rf user.www-data and then chmod-ing properly was right but I'll change my ways [13:27] ah just need to do ssh add [13:27] Queenslayer: you mean get the files from windows? [13:27] EriC^^: no [13:27] From Ubuntu to Xubuntu [13:27] oh [13:27] I know i shouldn't mention that publicly [13:27] lspci -k | grep -A2 VGA shows the vga and driver in use [13:28] maybe it's a bad kernel? [13:28] Cool [13:28] Probably [13:28] which ubuntu vs xubuntu versions? [13:29] I thought it should work out the box but both WiFi and graphics seemed to have issues [13:29] I think in Ubuntu installation because i have internet during installation means updated packages [13:29] hi! [13:31] Hi [13:31] EriC^^: both 16.04 lts [13:32] Queenslayer: you can just install the xubuntu-desktop package which make that ubuntu install to a xubuntu install [13:32] Queenslayer: oh, it's like you said probably, need to get an internet connection on it [13:32] or copy the .deb's and install them [13:33] EriC^^: i did that manually for the wifi. From the USB live cd [13:33] k1l: that's what i did earlier [13:34] I'll probably stick with that this time [13:34] EriC^^: how do i get the deb for the graphics? [13:35] Can someone help me with Chimera? [13:35] Well, how can I check de dependencies for a program? [13:35] k1l: unity isn't that bad once you place the launcher where you want it [13:36] apt-cache showpkg package-name [13:36] Jakey4 i would not advice to completely disable seahorse, it provides credentials to many services not only ssh [13:36] hurasafe: apt-cache showpkg package-name [13:37] Queenslayer, but i didn't installed it through the apt-get command, is that still fine? [13:37] Should be [13:37] hurasafe: got synaptic? [13:38] Queenslayer: good thing is: it comes with the launcher there, where it makes the most sense on 16:9 monitors for me :) [13:38] Queenslayer, not sure. I'm a newbie xD [13:39] Queenslayer, I tried the command but it hasn't found "the package" [13:40] k1l: for noobs like me coming from windows we need a transition of sorta [13:40] hurasafe: I'm a newbie too [13:40] g [13:40] Which is why i recommend synaptic [13:40] Queenslayer, xD Damn. I got a program, but aparently the visual part isn't working. [13:41] hello, is there a reason i need an apache server running on my laptop? [13:42] hurasafe: sudo apt-get install synaptic [13:42] it's using 0.1% ram and 0 cpu, but anyways, why is it even there in the first place? [13:42] Queenslayer, already on it. :P [13:42] You'll be able to find the program and dependencies [13:42] Twirl: why did you install the webserver? [13:42] Queenslayer, done. Now what? [13:42] But not always so... [13:42] k1l: i don't remember doing so [13:43] Twirl: you must have installed something that depends on it. [13:43] hurasafe: launch it from search [13:43] ducasse: mmh alright that could be it, i'm developing a lot of web stuff but since i moved to vagrant i don't need the runtime on my machine [13:43] ducasse: is there a way to find what's depending on it [13:43] Hi, my screen freezes when I'm shutting down my pc, and the only way to shut it down is to long press the power button. Someone knows how to solve this? [13:44] Twirl: aptitude why apache2 [13:44] Twirl: apt-cache rdepends [13:44] someone: gui or sh? [13:44] k1l: well, that will list everything, not just things installed. [13:44] Queenslayer, thanks m8. [13:45] apache2 Suggest apache2-doc, apache2-doc suggests apache2, lmao [13:45] You're welcome hurasafe [13:45] Pici: well, yes. [13:45] k1l: can i just remove all that depends on it as well with a single command [13:45] i'm using php though [13:46] so that shouldn't go away [13:46] Queenslayer, Are you talking to me? if so, the answer is GUI [13:46] someone235: tried command line? [13:47] Just type shutdown from sh [13:47] can you just stop it from starting out and using resources indefinitely? [13:47] It will tell you if your interface is misbehaving [13:48] Queenslayer, I did "sudo halt" and got the same result [13:48] Twirl: well, that might remove php too since that depends on a webbrowser [13:48] Queenslayer, does it matter if I halt or shutdown? [13:49] k1l: i'm using php interpreter for linting code [13:49] I read somewhere that the problem could be because of BIOS, and you should update it from Windows, but I don't have Windows [13:49] k1l: apache is a web server that handles requests in a port etc, i don't need that [13:50] well, i'm not sure i do for linting php files, i mean [13:50] (For Debian and Ubuntu users, the desired package is now available in Jessie and is called: php5-geos.) [13:50] someone235: no [13:50] whats Jessie? [13:50] someone235: could be grub [13:50] I need to install Geos on my Ubuntu [13:50] Geos with the build option to create a PHP module (--enable-php). Your OS package may not have selected this build option by default, in which case you will need to build GEOS from source yourself. [13:50] hi. have been trying to find a 'decent' music player on ubuntu for a while now. [13:50] I'm not sure what to do [13:50] :/ [13:50] arkie: jessie is a debian codename [13:51] so it's not relevant to me using ubuntu? [13:51] someone235: can you reboot okay? [13:51] dreamcat4: mandarine, vlc [13:51] i was totally happy with banshee. but the problem with banshee is it uses a too-old version of mono now. [13:51] vlc is a video player. i dont like the interface to it. [13:51] mandarine? is that like clementine? [13:52] Twirl: ok, i am not doing web development. [13:52] Queenslayer, yes [13:52] arkie: jessie is a debian release. [13:52] dreamcat4: yeah clementine that is [13:52] okay [13:52] so how can i install gets? [13:52] geos* [13:52] I tend to use cmus. [13:52] yeah i tried that one but dont like the interface (nor its cousin amarok neither) [13:52] https://github.com/digitalmethodsinitiative/dmi-tcat/wiki/Installation-Guide [13:52] someone: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub [13:52] i'm trying to do the Capturing GEO-located Tweets using TCAT [13:53] been trying to install 2 new ones today: gnome-music and 'noise' (of elementary OS) [13:53] someone235: [13:53] but they arent working :( [13:53] someone235: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub [13:53] k1l: sudo apt-get remove apache2 ~ E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?

I'm running into an issue where I get a "can't find the function anyNA" error. I think, based on some research, that this all goes back to the fact that there are three libR.so files and so it looks [15:39] at the R binary that was compiled and the WRONG libR.so, so there might be some conflict. [15:40] That's a bit too much detail, but the main goal is to have programs only see the compiled libR.so, not the one in /usr/lib/ or /usr/lib/R/lib [15:40] Hi [15:40] I have new computer and I removed Windows , I want install ubuntu and other distros .

[15:52] Sagar: there are a *lot* of reverse-dependencies on libpcre3 [15:52] nacc: yes now i know [15:52] Sagar: so how did you remove it? [15:52] libpcre3: because it wasn't letting me update or install updates [15:53] first case please help me reinstall libpcre3 anyway [15:53] Sagar: not why, but how?

Is is possible to change it now without formatting whole disk? [16:20] partition * [16:21] what do you see in windows? how did you create it on linux? [16:21] LostSoul: i'm guessing you need to set the partition code to whatever windows expects.

[16:25] ok, thanks [16:25] only 1969 at last counr :-) [16:26] de-facto: I created primary partion on entire external hdd [16:26] Then I made fast format with mkfs.ntfs [16:26] Sagar: then try reinstall ducasse suggested, its the price to pay for adding external ppa's.. [16:27] Under Windows it's no listed in "my computer" but when I go to HDD deviced, it sees it as disk without any file system and only thing I can do is erase volume [16:27] Did I go the wrong way? [16:27] Only strage thing I noticed is: [16:27] LostSoul: partitions have a numeric code, linux has probably assigned the wrong one. [16:28] /dev/sdb1 2048 1953525167 1953523120 931,5G 83 Linux [16:28] Is it possible to change it without format? [16:28] LostSoul ok what partition type does "sudo fdisk --list" show for it? the Id should be 7 and the type "HPFS/NTFS/exFAT" [16:28] Booting on live-cd is to copy data is problematic for me atm [16:28] LostSoul: yes. [16:28] de-facto: ^ "Linux" [16:28] yup thats the problem i guess [16:29] Any tip how to change it without data loss? [16:29] i guess with fdisk [16:29] no need to touch the filesystem itself [16:29] or gparted if you like the GUI way [16:30] LostSoul ^^ [16:31] <\9> LostSoul: be extra careful when dealing with any partitioning tools and do not do any actions you don't fully understand [16:33] \9: Sure thing, thanks. de-facto You too. [16:33] I'm not newbie, but yeah I'm not master either :) [16:34] when i try to create a gpg key [16:34] <\9> I just feel compelled to warn about it. fact is that it's very easy to wipe all your data with them [16:34] it says it doesnt have enough entropy and i should do something on the computer [16:34] but i am remoting in from ssh [16:34] LostSoul my preformated WD Elements (external USB disk) shows like "/dev/sdb1 2048 3906963455 3906961408 1,8T 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT" [16:34] so what am i meant to do [16:34] moving the mouse doesnt make a differece [16:34] Jakey4: yep. Access disks etc [16:34] Jakey4: click with the mouse, open programs, etc. [16:35] on ssh? [16:35] Jakey4: disk and network access increases the entropy pool [16:35] Jakey4: login to a second ssh session and do stuff [16:35] ye was trying that [16:35] just wasnt buding must take some time [16:36] Jakey4: It'll be faster to create the key locally then send it across, though [16:36] \9, de-facto: Changing type should not wipe it, yeah? [16:37] I'm still on 15.04 (sadly). I want to upgrade to 15.10, but I need to fix an issue with python first. I used checkinstall to install python 3.5, and now I can't install/uninstall anything... here's a pastebin of the output of apt-get upgrade. http://pastebin.com/n2DvzQ8j [16:37] 16.04 is good :) [16:37] nacc: lotuspsychje: i am in rescue mode what can i do? [16:37] LostSoul i dont think it would wipe, if you leave everything else (like the addresses and the filesystem) alone [16:38] <\9> de-facto: but you're not sure? [16:38] zrneely: don't do that in the future (python is a core application). Can yuou remove the python3 pacakge? [16:38] \9 i would be sure enough that id do it myself [16:38] but i cant guarentee [16:39] <\9> well, yeah, nothing is ever 100.0% guaranteed [16:39] nacc: Yeah, I've learned my lesson... dpkg won't let me remove python3, since a few things depend on it (software-properties-common, onboard, gnome-orca) [16:39] anyone [16:40] i am in rescue mode [16:40] ls: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory === ubuntu is now known as Guest28378 [16:40] LostSoul just be carefull changing just the type/id, nothing else [16:40] <\9> Sagar: sounds like your system is a little bit screwed up [16:41] i accidently removed libpcre3 [16:41] Sagar: you might have to boot from a live cd and fix it that way, if you can't even run the coreutils [16:41] Sagar: your system is toast. Boot from a live CD, back up your data, then wipe and reload.

[16:43] <\9> Sagar: you could try extract the archive, and emplace the libpcre3.so file from that [16:43] Sagar, what happens when you try to run "apt-get install libpcre3"? [16:43] nacc: apt-get -f install tells me that "pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages." [16:44] lorena siri [16:44] <\9> DArqueBishop: it probably won't do anything because the package is still there [16:44] <\9> Sagar: try sudo apt-get --reinstall install libpcre3 [16:45] zrneely: are you able to install 'python' (rather than python3) ? [16:45] <\9> Sagar: if that doesn't work, try boot from a live session, mount the file system and emplace the libpcre3.so.3 file manually [16:45] <\9> Sagar: if that still doesn't work it's time to consider a reinstall [16:46] nacc: What do you mean? With apt? Any package installation tells me to run apt-get -f install, which fails with the message I pasted above [16:46] E: Can not write log (Is /dev/pts mounted?) - posix_openpt (2: No such file or directory) [16:47] same error on each of the command [16:47] <\9> hm [16:47] > /usr/bin/dpkg: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [16:47] <\9> ok so dpkg is not going to work then [16:47] Would I be able to install multiple desktop environments w/o config conflicts and so on? [16:48] nor wget or anything [16:48] everything depends upon libpcre3 [16:49] <\9> Sagar: okay, try use a live cd then. mount your file system and emplace the libpcre.so.3 file [16:50] zrneely: not sure, sorry -- apt is quite unhappy with you :/ maybe someone else can help [16:50] how to do that in rescue mode? [16:50] Sagar: you don't. You need to boot using a live CD. [16:50] <\9> use whatever you used to install ubuntu [16:50] <\9> CD, USB, etc [16:51] nacc: no problem, thanks for your help! I mostly just don't want to reinstall completely, since backups/restores are slow. [16:51] its a ubuntu server [16:51] purchased from an online provider [16:51] <\9> then you will have to notify your provider of the issue [16:51] <\9> you are not able to fix it yourself [16:52] they said they dont provide s/w support [16:52] <\9> that's a pretty garbage provider then [16:52] <\9> they don't provide any software support even in emergencies? [16:53] nope [16:53] does anyone have experience with xsessions that can chat with me about a problem I'm working on? [16:53] <\9> alright hmm [16:53] Sagar: I seriously hope your data wasn't important or that it was backed up off the server. [16:53] <\9> you're in quite the predicament, yeah [16:54] can't we install libpcre3 in rescure mode [16:54] Sagar: you already proved you can't. [16:54] and add the so file in mount drive [16:54] ? [16:54] <\9> need to somehow get it to the system [16:54] \9, couldn't he just manually extract from a deb and place the file in rescue mode? [16:54] <\9> Waggie: dpkg doesn't work [16:55] Waggie: using what tool? [16:55] Well, on another system, extract the deb using archive roller or similar. [16:55] <\9> he said that this is a server provided by an online provider [16:55] waggie how? [16:55] Sagar: can you scp to the server in question? [16:56] Waggie: he can't ssh to the box is my understanding [16:56] hi, i'm using ubuntu 14.04 with DHCP configuration, i want to subscribe the DNS servers i'm using, does anyone know how? [16:56] now i am in ssh [16:56] in rescue mode [16:56] ubuntu 16 [16:56] <\9> and can you establish a new ssh connection? [16:56] Sagar: if you can SSh in, then just SCP the file over [16:56] i have /var/cache/apt/archives/libpcre3_2%3a8.38-3.1_amd64.deb still lying [16:56] <\9> (DON'T CUT YOUR CURRENT ONE) [16:56] scp is also not working [16:56] <\9> damn [16:56] So, on my desktop system (which runs Ubuntu 14.04) I can right-click a .deb file, and see the contents of it. [16:56] <\9> Waggie: this is not a desktop! [16:56] Sagar: are you sure you're ssh'd in and not on a remote console? [16:57] sfdebug sudo -e /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base [16:57] <\9> nacc: a ssh connection survives even an sshd restart [16:57] I think he's on a remote console [16:57] Waggie: he can't even run a directory listing. [16:57] WinSCP Works :D [16:57] i am on ftp [16:57] what can i do? [16:57] <\9> ah [16:57] \9: however an SSH session doesn't survive a reboot into rescue mode [16:57] \9: right, but if he's at 'rescue mode' i don't know how ssh is running :) [16:57] <\9> ah hm [16:57] but if he's able to ftp in, then maybe he can 'put' the rigth file remotely [16:58] not sure [16:58] Sagar maybe you could try to unpack that deb and copy the files to the appropriate locations manually, then reinstall that deb when you get dpkg working? [16:58] MonkeyDust, i tried it already... [16:58] sfdebug did you add nameserver x.x.x.x [16:59] sfdebug if you did, then update with sudo resolvconf -u [16:59] anyone of you can just send me the .so files and i can directly upload it? [16:59] that will be really helpful [16:59] <\9> Sagar: do you have the libpcre.so.3.13.2 file? [16:59] no [16:59] <\9> Sagar: libpcre.so.3 appears to be a symlink [16:59] <\9> okay i can upload it [16:59] MonkeyDust, let me try [16:59] Sagar which exact version do you need? [17:00] \9 please that will help [17:00] de-facto [17:00] i am on ubuntu 16.04 [17:00] what could be best? [17:00] amd64? [17:00] <\9> Sagar: https://tsp.kapsi.fi/libpcre.so.3.13.2 there you go [17:00] MonkeyDust, didn't work.. [17:01] guys i am new to ubuntu i have installed screenfetch package but how ever i dont know how to run it( iv used "screenfetch" in terminal) nothing happen,, any one can help me out???( im on) [17:01] agent44_ what do you want to do [17:01] Hey, I'm trying to create an xsession that curl's a url...if it returns true it boots into a chrome kiosk mode, if it returns false it boots normally. I'm having trouble getting 16.04 to start normally by calling gnome-session from a bash script....any ideas? [17:02] agent44_: maybe look at `man screenfetch` to see what options it accepts, etc. [17:02] \9: downloaded, where and how do i place it? [17:02] <\9> Sagar: it appears to live in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ [17:02] \9 isnt it more like that one here? http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/libpcre3/download [17:03] <\9> de-facto: that's where i pulled it from [17:04] <\9> Sagar: so try use winscp to move it to the server, and then use mv to put it in place [17:04] <\9> Sagar: then use: ln -s libpcre.so.3.13.1 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3 [17:04] <\9> Sagar: to create the symbolic link, if it doesn't exist [17:05] ln: failed to create symbolic link '/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3': File exists [17:05] <\9> then it's already there [17:05] it is showing something like "user command" SCREENFETCH(1) etc..... [17:05] ok yup looks like the correct one (together with libpcreposix.so.3.13.2) [17:05] <\9> Sagar: it should work now. try use some programs [17:06] ls: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [17:06] i think i have to remove the old one [17:06] how do i do that? [17:06] <\9> hmm wait [17:06] <\9> use ls -lh /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu [17:06] <\9> what does it say about the libpcre files? [17:06] i can see libpcre.so.3.13.1 (438K) and libpcre.so.3 (1K) inside lib/x86_64-linux-gnu [17:06] <\9> okay, but what is libpcre.so.3? where does it point? [17:07] i dont know [17:07] \9 tell me remove the old symlink and create new one [17:07] <\9> let's not be rash [17:07] I installed VeraCrypt on Xubuntu 14.04 with this guide and it appeared to install and is in the app menu...but nothing happens when I try to launch it http://www.linuxandubuntu.com/home/encrypt-data-in-linux-with-veracrypt-an-alternative-to-truecrypt Any ideas? [17:07] <\9> the ls -lh command should reveal the nature of libpcre.so.3 [17:07] ls: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [17:08] <\9> but you just said you saw it there [17:08] <\9> oh wait the ls doesn't work [17:08] Would I be able to install multiple desktop environments w/o config conflicts and so on? [17:08] via WinSCP i can see it libpcre.so.3.13.1 [17:08] <\9> okay then let's just recreate it [17:08] installing python3 getting encodings error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16656961/ how to resolve? [17:08] \9: http://prntscr.com/b7xdh6 [17:08] <\9> use the same ln command, but use ln -sf instead of ln -s [17:09] <\9> hm [17:09] <\9> it looks fine then [17:09] agent44_: right, that's a man-page [17:09] agent44_: it tells you how to use a command ('manual page') [17:09] Hanumaan: do you use a foreign encoding? [17:10] so we need to reboot? [17:10] or something? [17:10] <\9> if you reboot it probably won't come back up again [17:10] what is wrong then? [17:10] Sagar: use 'echo' instead of 'ls' [17:10] swent482, call it from a command line with gksudo [17:10] <\9> ducasse: and what on earth would that help? [17:11] Hanumaan: and did you change stuff with python manually? [17:11] waggie how do I do that? [17:11] ducasse: echo? [17:11] \9: if 'ls' doesn't work, try 'echo *'. [17:11] echo works fine [17:11] i am new so it bit weird for me.. can i get the usual one ?? i mean i was using elementary before and screenfetch was working great no need of man screenfetch there?? sorry for the stupidity [17:11] k1l, no I did not changed anything manually .. [17:11] <\9> Sagar: can you run stat? [17:11] swent482, open the Unity menu, type 'Terminal' and click on the icon for Terminal [17:11] <\9> or does that also complain about libpcre? [17:11] Hi! [17:12] Hanumaan: or installed some 3rd party stuff? [17:12] I meant what command to type exactly sorry...I have terminal open [17:12] swent482, actually, skip the 'gksudo' part. [17:12] got it mannnnnnn .. thankssssss [17:12] swent482, just type 'veracrypt' at the command prompt. [17:12] stat: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [17:12] echo * works fine [17:13] waggie: /usr/bin/veracrypt: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error [17:13] k1l, tried with some rdkit packages .. which uses python .. but just tried to install .. is there a way just clean all the python stuff and reinstall .. [17:13] <\9> and libpcre.so.3.13.1 exists in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/? [17:13] swent482, where did you ge the veracrypt binaries from? [17:13] Hanumaan: the problem is, that most stuff uses python itself [17:13] from their site...verified them as well [17:14] id i use ./ screenfetch-dev then it works fine [17:14] http://prntscr.com/b7xgcx [17:14] hi [17:14] i need some directions to find someone [17:14] k1l, I have purged all these packages in the process of removing buggy python3 http://paste.ubuntu.com/16660360/ .. and tried to re install but still it gives the error .. so only reinstallation of OS is the solution? [17:14] swent482, you downloaded "VeraCrypt Linux Setup 1.17" from their website? [17:14] <\9> Sagar: i don't see libpcre.3.13.1 in that [17:15] yes [17:15] 123 [17:15] <\9> Sagar: where did you place it? [17:15] help me guys. Banshee doesnot play aac or opus audio files. But it plays mp3 files. I have checked that libopus and aac codecs are installed. What to do now [17:15] if i use ./screenfetch -dev it works fine can i change the command into "screenfetch"??? [17:15] swent482, and which of the contained executables did you run? [17:15] but i can see that via WinSCP \9 [17:15] (inside "veracrypt-1.17-setup.tar.bz2"?) [17:15] veracrypt-1.17-setup.tar.bz2 and I used the gui x86 [17:16] Hanumaan: maybe the guys in #python know about that issue. i have never seen that on an ubuntu system [17:16] swent482, are you actually running a 32-bit OS? [17:16] yes [17:16] its a very old toshiba with Xubuntu 14.04 [17:16] Ah. Hmm.. [17:16] \9: http://prntscr.com/b7xhh3 [17:16] Thinker_: libopus0 opus-tools is installed? [17:17] <\9> hmm [17:17] <\9> how's this possible [17:17] the guide I linked seemed the most legit...several advised PPAs etc and I wanted to avoid those. I checked GPG sigs etc [17:17] swent482, what do you get if you run 'file /usr/bin/veracrypt' ? [17:17] not sure what I might have done wrong but it was likely me [17:18] swent482, mine reports "/usr/bin/veracrypt: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped" - which will be slightly different, as I'm running 64-bit. [17:18] "/usr/bin/veracrypt: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped" [17:19] k1l, checking, plz give me a minute [17:19] since I am on a 32bit is that the issue? did i grab the wrong one somehow? [17:19] where can i find the author for ALSA development [17:19] swent482, well, you didn't run the 32-bit setup that was in that bz2, you ran the 64-bit setup. [17:19] swent482: why are you on 32bit? [17:19] \9: what could be wrong? [17:19] files lies there [17:19] k1l, he has an old laptop. [17:20] swent482, make sure you run 'veracrypt-1.17-setup-gui-x86' from that bz2 file. [17:20] <\9> Sagar: I don't know. the file should be there [17:20] crap...i knew it was me being an idot...how do I remove the 64bit version and start over the right way? === folder| is now known as folder|| [17:20] k1l, libopus0 installed, opus-tools not installed [17:20] kll: I am using a 10yo toshiba with 32bit processor === folder|| is now known as folder| [17:20] swent482: are you sure its 32bit only? [17:20] Sagar it has /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3 -> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3.13.2 (~ 450kB) ) then it has /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcreposix.so.3 -> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcreposix.so.3.13.2 (~ 10kB) [17:20] well I think so...how would I check? [17:21] anything like dpkg which doesn't require libpcre3 [17:21] so that we can install deb package? [17:21] swent482: "lspcu | nc termbin.com 9999" [17:21] is there a way to make the unity toolbar not display on bootup? I have it set to auto hide but as soon as a user logs in it is on the screen for a second before it slides out of view, and I'm trying to make it not show at all [17:21] swent482, not sure, but I would imagine you could install the x32 version over the x64 version.. [17:21] didn't checked libpcreposix.so.3.13.2 [17:21] Stupid question. [17:21] de-facto: no file libpcreposix.so.3.13.2 [17:21] Sagar: what happens if you run "ldconfig"? [17:21] nor libpcreposix.so.3 [17:22] Never mind. [17:22] kll: No command 'lspcu' found, did you mean: Command 'lscpu' from package 'util-linux' (main) Command 'lspci' from package 'pciutils' (main) lspcu: command not found Use netcat. [17:22] DarqueBIshop: it works shows nothing [17:22] Sagar the exact md5sums would be 2c81decd656a3c3843e47fb5ccf71065 libpcre3_8.38-3.1_amd64.deb: 66cae850e791d89892cb8b71d07ab39c libpcreposix.so.3.13.2 and 020071cb8fcff2b7eab8e1beaf65058b libpcre.so.3.13.2 [17:22] root@rescue:/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu# ldconfig | root@rescue:/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu# [17:22] swent482: "lscpu | nc termbin.com 9999" <<< sorry had a typo [17:22] waggie: is there a terminal command to purge it all though? sorry for the noob ignorance [17:22] k1l, i have installed opus-tools but still cant play [17:22] de-facto: no file like libpcreposix at all [17:22] Sagar: does ls still not work? [17:22] swent482 what's the outout of sudo dmidecode --type 4 | tail -2 [17:22] * DArqueBishop is grasping at straws. [17:22] nope [17:23] Sagar: can't you just upload the file as both libpcre3.so.3 and libpcre.so.3.13.2? it doesn't need to be a symlink. [17:23] output* [17:23] ducasse: i have already uploaded ibpcre.so.3.13.2 [17:23] libpcre.so.3.13.2 [17:23] swent482, Googling gives me: "To uninstall VeraCrypt on Linux, you have to run the following command as root: veracrypt-uninstall.sh" [17:23] how do i remove symlink? [17:23] kll: http://termbin.com/d190 [17:23] unlink /your/symlink/here [17:24] waggie: thanks will give that a try [17:24] MonkeyDust: Part Number: Not Specified [17:24] Sagar the smaller file is here if you like: http://en.file-upload.net/download-11609588/libpcreposix.so.3.13.2.html [17:24] swent482 nvm, lscpu shows it also [17:24] waggie: to run as root I just put sudo before the command yea? [17:25] should i unlink the symlink [17:25] swent482, yup [17:25] then rename the libpcre.3.13.2 and change it to libpcre.so.3 [17:26] waggie it instantly said "veracrypt uninstalled"...normally there is some activity...could it have actually uninstalled that fast and without output? [17:26] swent482, very possible. [17:26] swent482, try installing the x86 version now. [17:26] waggie: thanks..I will try to do it right this time you guys have all been very helpful [17:27] swent482, glad to help! :) [17:27] Hello all :) [17:27] I am in trouble with my brand new 16.04 installation [17:28] what replaces gnome-disks in 16.04? [17:28] \9? de-facto? ducasse? [17:28] SemiNus let's hear it, in one line [17:28] chromium-browser causes a vast amount of my CPU load. [17:28] http://pastie.org/pastes/10850717/text?key=iyety42cy26i5abiy6tpbq [17:29] as i see /usr/bin/dpkg: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [17:29] shouln't file be placed in /sur/bin/dpkg [17:29] Sagar: remove the symlink, then either upload the file again with the name you need or link it. [17:29] well not [17:29] the problem especially seems to occur when I use my mouse wheel in order to scroll down a browser window. Scrolling happens very "jumpy" (I guess that word does not exist, huh?) and it slows down the whole system [17:29] ducasse: uploaded [17:30] SemiNus: well. dont use that much chromium tabs and flash content? [17:30] oh great... the problem is the same in firefox... I just opened firefox, wanted to look in dict.cc for the translation of "ruckelig" (a german word) and then "top" shows me a usage of 79% for firefox [17:30] k1l, no flash content [17:30] ducasse: i did, i think winscp is not working fine [17:31] SemiNus: what do you care what percentage it uses? [17:31] SemiNus: actually you could look if its getting better with adblock or such.

[17:31] nope [17:31] Hai [17:31] the issue is [17:31] in winscp i can see [17:31] k1l, well, it's hard to work on a PC when it becomes totally slow because of a browser [17:31] waggie: kll: monkeydust: thanks to all...it worked this time. I had c&p the install command with x64 in it and failed to change [17:32] If I have two windows open, is there a shortcut to switch window?

[17:32] i should be /mnt/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu not /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu [17:33] swent482, glad its' working! [17:33] k1l, then if I try to install some packages I get unmet dependencies http://paste.ubuntu.com/16661006/ .. #python said those previous ones are not errors what could be solution for this dependency problem? [17:33] alt tab brings up like a dialog. Is there anyway to do it without that thing showing up? [17:33] anom alt esc [17:34] that doesn't appear to work either lol [17:35] anom both at the same time... it's the same as in Main Stream OS [17:35] worked :D [17:35] \9? de-facto? ducasse? :D worked [17:35] !yay | Sagar [17:35] Sagar: Glad you made it! :-) [17:36] The issue was we were looking into /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu while on recovery mode it was /mnt/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu [17:36] !thanks [17:36] You're welcome!

[17:38] yes :) [17:38] Sagar: well, then, you must have learned a lot today ;) [17:38] alot :D [17:39] Sagar: next time, for a *real* challenge, remove /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 ;) [17:39] lool [17:40] lol [17:40] :v [17:40] never [17:41] Sagar: again, if anything on that box is important to you, NOW is the time to start planning scheduled offsite backups. [17:41] You got INCREDIBLY lucky. [17:42] and thanks you all :D [17:43] Hanumaan, If I were you I would split that long apt-get install command in two parts, sometimes it may be easier for apt-get if you ask it not to do everything at once, that's my experience at least [17:44] <\9> Sagar: ah, cool to know it worked [17:45] zteam, thats good will try that way .. [17:45] zteam, idea* [17:46] :) [17:47] Hanumaan, also if you do use somethird party repositories you might need to disable them :-) [17:47] zteam, yes I have disabled already .. [17:48] Hanumaan, okey, then it should hopefully work :p === zel is now known as Guest38210 [17:51] Sagar: if you want good backup software, i can recommend attic. === charles is now known as Guest636 [17:55] why would you need to init a backup location [17:55] overengineered [17:56] reisio: it works really well, though, and that's mainly all i care about.

[18:36] guys help [18:36] I installed the HWE but now if I have two windows open that use opengl, one of them stops [18:36] and if I switch to nvidia mode and start Xorg, I get a black screen (screen off [18:43] the name i was looking for is krunner :) [18:44] Powerless: krunner is not a unity thing. [18:44] is kubuntu faster than ubuntu? [18:44] django_1: no [18:44] k1l, do we have a similar one for ubuntu? [18:44] k1l, whats the difference [18:45] Powerless: synapse [18:45] django_1: if you want a faster one you might want to look at Xubuntu or even Lubuntu [18:45] k1l, how different are x and l ubuntu? [18:45] django_1: its a differen desktop environment. like two different carmakers. they both build cars, but different ones [18:45] xangua, synapse I have to open a program. this krunner all you have to is type and it will search [18:46] django_1: unity vs kde5 vs xfce vs lxde.

"groups" says i am in dialout group. ls -l says /dev/ttyUSB0 has crw-rw---- perms and root:dialout owner [18:52] shudon: not sure what you think that command should do? screen takes as arguments a command [18:52] nacc: it can also connect to a tty [18:52] shudon: you need to tell it to do that with flags, iirc? [18:52] idk, nacc. with root user, i can do this with same args [18:53] shudon: did you re-login after adding yourself to dialout group? [18:53] shudon: hrm, i'd check what akik said, then [18:53] akik: yes, groups(1) says i am dialout group [18:53] shudon: that's not the same thing [18:53] shudon: did you logout and log back in? [18:53] shudon: you can be in a group and that membership not having taken effect yet [18:53] nacc: i thought if i run groups with no args, it only shows groups i actually have, as opposed to ones i will get on login [18:54] shudon: no args just prints current process's groups, iirc [18:54] right [18:54] shudon: which does not mean your membership has been updated... [18:54] * shudon sighs [18:54] * EriC^^ double sighs [18:55] * nacc shrugs [19:01] how much a 32GB server running apache2 and php7.0-fpm is cable of handling concurrent users?

Lubuntu is working but there is no wireless showing [19:29] Can u help me please since I have read several posts and thought hundreds of solutions trobuleshooting etc... [19:29] ubuntu498, you can extract it from a live CD [19:30] Sorry Queenslayer I am not sure I am following your advice, would you mind to expand it a little bit? [19:30] ubuntu498, you shouldn't expect all the drivers to work anyway [19:30] ubuntu498: does the intel laptop's wireless work from a liveCD/USB?

[19:31] You probably need driver packages to make the wifi work [19:31] maybe I have not expressed fully myself [19:31] Yes _44trent3 [19:32] Queenslayer: I have tried hundred of things [19:32] _44trent3, you mean to ask why GRUB2 comes on in place of windows boot manager? === ExoGeni is now known as Thallo [19:32] as I said nothing is working [19:32] <_44trent3> no, i mean my windows partition isn't active [19:32] I don't know where the problem lies [19:32] <_44trent3> i'm trying to restore the windows bootloader from the windows 7 repair disk [19:32] ubuntu498: what wireless device? what version of windows? [19:32] ubuntu498, you said lubuntu is working? [19:33] ubuntu498: err, what version of ubuntu :) [19:33] <_44trent3> but i was just wondering if it's normal that my windows partition isn't marked as active [19:33] <_44trent3> after the dualboot [19:33] Queenslayer: yes Lubuntu is working perfectly [19:33] <_44trent3> i can go somewhere else to figure out the windows MBR problem, i just wanted to know if ubuntu might've had something to do with it [19:33] two things only [19:33] _44trent3, are you using it via UEFI? [19:33] first one the wireless [19:33] <_44trent3> no, i'm using it via mbr [19:33] ubuntu498, find the wireless card [19:33] <_44trent3> i think [19:33] done it Queenslayer [19:33] And get propietary drivers for it [19:34] lspci gives Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) [19:34] <_44trent3> guess i could try imaging the windows iso again on the thumb drive and see if that fixes it... [19:34] Queenslayer: why would you assume they need proprietary drivers? [19:34] _44trent3, can you boot into windows at all? [19:34] <_44trent3> yeah, but I want to get rid of grub and remove the ubuntu partition [19:34] the drivers that I could find where only given in *.exe [19:34] I am attempting to use memcached in 16.04 but it keeps crashing even though it has plenty of memory. Some googling tells me that sometimes this happens when not run with the -d command, however, the 16.04 init script seems to be stripping this from the daemon as it doesn't show up in top [19:34] ubuntu498 in a terminal, type nmtui ... then Activate [19:34] <_44trent3> and whenever i use the repair option in my windows 7 usb, it doesn't detect windows 7 [19:35] <_44trent3> and for some reason, my ubuntu partition is the one with a bootable flag... [19:35] <_44trent3> all the other ones don't have it [19:35] nacc, just a suggestion as it worked on mine [19:35] Hi MonkeyDust i don't have that command [19:35] and it doesn't allow me to install it [19:35] Queenslayer: but that would highly depend on the card in question... [19:35] nacc, true [19:35] <_44trent3> there is a windows IRC channel i could ask, but that method is used to get rid of grub properly right? [19:36] I think I presumed too much there [19:36] Queenslayer: i think the intel chipset should work fine with the stock kernel(s) [19:36] nacc, one sec... [19:36] ubuntu498: do you have networking at all (wired, perhaps) [19:36] nacc, you're right [19:36] Thanks guy, I hope I can sort this... [19:37] nacc, when I tried XUbuntu nothing was detected, but fine for stock Ubuntu [19:37] I am typing from the laptop where the problem is...connected through dsl cable [19:37] Can someone tell me where to find a stock 16.04 init script? [19:37] so ethernet is fine [19:37] Queenslayer: hrm, that's strange! interesting, though [19:37] nacc, it is [19:37] ubuntu498: ok, can you pastebin `dmesg` output? [19:37] I was quite surprised by it [19:37] of course [19:37] Err can someone help me find a stock 16.04 memcached.conf file? [19:37] give me a sec [19:37] ubuntu498: thanks [19:40] nacc: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16664309/ [19:44] ubuntu498: what version of ubuntu is this (`lsb_release -a` will say) [19:45] 14.04 Trusty [19:45] Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS [19:45] subsume: You have the default file here: https://websetnet.com/memcached-cache-config-on-ubuntu/ [19:45] ubuntu498: `uname -a` (feel free to pastebin) [19:46] http://paste.ubuntu.com/16664428/ [19:47] sli1: hmmm... im' not sure if i should be using memcached or libmemcached [19:48] ubuntu498: ugh, i thnk that's the utopic hwe stack (based upon the kernel version) [19:48] ubuntu498: would you be willing to use the later hwe stack, to test?

[19:54] the log is empty [19:54] subsume: is it being killed? (`dmesg` might say) [19:55] ah okay, yeah i guess it says out of memory [19:56] Hello Worlddd [19:56] subsume: right, so it probably oom'd [19:56] subsume: and the kernel killed it [19:57] hello guys [19:57] subsume: well, not quite the right verbage/order, but you get the idea :) [19:57] sorry, for some reasons something happened and I couldn't see any typing [19:57] nacc, in the meantime I pasted the command into terminale [19:58] I don't think the init script for memcached notes are really accurate to how 16.04 is running it [19:58] there's a comment that says you can run one instance via # /etc/init.d/memcached start server1 [19:59] but I do that and it doesn't start anything === a1 is now known as deb [20:01] ubuntu695: ok, so you're switching over to the xenial hwe stack?

[20:03] ubuntu695: using wily? no, not necessarily [20:03] ubuntu695: *wily lts hwe [20:03] now the system it is asking [20:04] to reboot [20:04] ubuntu695: but if it doesn't work, then you might still need to test xenial [20:04] so I will do that [20:04] ubuntu695: yep [20:04] right, thank you nacc I will see you shortly [20:06] k1l, for lubuntu installation it says "software selection" do i chose a desktop environent [20:07] edubuntu, kubuntu etc [20:08] http://imgur.com/2q1e1Hc [20:09] g [20:12] Can someone help me debug why the init script for memcached doesn't seem to do what it says it does http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/vivid/memcached/vivid/view/head:/scripts/memcached-init [20:12] I tried sudo /etc/init.d/memcached start server1 but it doesn't do anything idfferent than if you left server1 off [20:13] subsume: did you create a /etc/memcached_server1.conf ?

I'm running Ubuntu in a VM, and when I try to resize a window, I have to move the cursor perhaps 1/4 inch past the bottom right corner for it to register that it's on the bottom right corner. I realized this is why I've had trouble with other widgets in the interface. The CentOS host that I'm running this [20:28] from does not have this problem.

[20:34] Any progress? [20:35] so i just setup my first debian repo with artifactory and apt-get is complaining that my packages are unauthenticated. what does this mean? is there away to fix it? i uploaded my gpg key to artifactory and that fixed some things, but not this :( [20:35] Queenslayer: ubuntu645 installed the wily lts hwe stack, at least, but it still isn't detecting the card (afaict) at hte kernel level, which seems odd [20:36] nacc, that sounds a bit deeper than I've ever delved before [20:36] nacc: [20:36] http://paste.ubuntu.com/16665398/ [20:36] ah ah [20:36] Hi Queenslayer [20:36] :) [20:36] At least he's in more capable hands(I hope :P_ [20:36] thanks guys [20:36] Hey ubuntu645 [20:36] ubuntu645: nice, ok, so the driver maybe isn't loading, but i'm not sure why that would be [20:36] but let's see [20:37] what is the simplest way to get libvirt to work? it doesn't want to run without app-armor. I've installed apparmor apparmor-profiles but it's still complaining that apparmor is not enabled and libvirt-bin won't start. [20:37] Please help! [20:37] hi, i'm using ubuntu 14.04 with DHCP configuration, i want to subscribe the DNS servers i'm using, does anyone know how? [20:37] nacc, I'd be tempted to say back up data and do fresh install, but this sounds interesting [20:37] ubuntu645: can you `modprobe iwl3945` ? [20:37] sfdebug, meaning you want to configure them? [20:38] nacc did it [20:38] iwconfig [20:38] Queenslayer, yes, i want to change the DNS to use the DNS i want, not the sent via DHCP... [20:38] gives something nice [20:38] ubuntu645: so here's my current theory, and i apologize for not thinking of this earlier [20:39] sfdebug, that's quite straightfoward [20:39] http://paste.ubuntu.com/16665447/ [20:39] I am all ear...ehm eyes [20:39] Go into network settings [20:39] ubuntu645: you switched underlying hardware, and the initrd didn't get rebuilt (probably), so a module (possibly modules) needed to support your new hardware aren't loded by default [20:39] I see [20:39] ubuntu645: you really can't just move disks between heterogenous hardware and have everything "just work", aiui it anymore [20:39] And under the tab IPV4 settings you should see under the DNS label it has an option under Additional servers [20:39] Sysinfo for 'linux-85up': Running inside KDE Plasma 5.6.4 on openSUSE Tumbleweed powered by Linux 4.5.4-1-default, CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4670 CPU @ 3.40GHz at 3718-3786/3800 MHz, RAM: 14862/15453 MB, Storage: 93/236 GB, 262 procs, 49.17h up [20:39] jinxi_: inappropriate for this channel [20:40] ok [20:40] sfdebug, presuming it's wifi? [20:40] ubuntu645: so i think at this point, you should be able to get on your wifi [20:41] nacc, I didn't think you could do that with most systems [20:41] nacc: basically it gives me the wifi connection but even after I put the password [20:42] ubuntu645, so you can detect wifi networks? [20:42] yes Queenslayer and they are unstable [20:43] in the sense that, It lets me put the password [20:43] That means it's working [20:43] Queenslayer: if they were physically identical, it might mostly work [20:43] ubuntu645: 'unstable'? [20:43] but doesn't connect me [20:43] your wifi drivers are fine then [20:43] docker on (x)ubuntu 16.04 -- containerd times out -- any solutions? :) [20:43] Take your ethernet off [20:43] That's probably why [20:44] I just posted the following: http://askubuntu.com/questions/777012/internal-mouse-location-is-above-and-left-of-physical-mouse-location . Anyone know anything about mouse misalignment issues? [20:44] You're connecting via both ethernet and wifi to same router [20:44] then when I check again it gives me "wireless not found" [20:44] yep Queenslayer [20:44] Take ethernet off and then connect wifi [20:45] I will try but it will not work [20:45] ubuntu645: it might be the case that if this works, you could do the same in the older kernel you were on [20:45] hmm 3945ABG , see this post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2222374 >> sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-firmware [20:45] that's right [20:45] nacc: [20:45] what should I do [20:45] :) [20:45] ubuntu645: `modprobe iwl3945` in the older kernel [20:45] ubuntu645: i think you need to rebuild your initrd, etc, but i'm not sure how that works really [20:46] i see [20:46] ubuntu645: i don't believe any OS really supports taking an installed image from one hardware to another [20:46] ubuntu645, have you tried without your ethernet? [20:46] ubuntu645: your best bet is to install on the hardware you are using, if i had to guess [20:46] Queenslayer: not yet [20:46] ubuntu645: a quick test would be to boot your new hardware off a liveusb or livecd [20:46] give it a quick shot please [20:46] ok [20:46] This might be a simple networking issue [20:46] speak sson [20:47] Queenslayer: good point, although i can connect to the same router via both (i just prioritize one over the other so i can undock and minimize my downtime) [20:48] It happened what I thought [20:48] it lets me put the password [20:48] but then nothing happens [20:48] so I am back to ethernet [20:48] nacc, doesn't let you do it on Android [20:48] So being based on Linux, thought maybe same principle [20:49] i could try a live cd [20:49] i have backtrack [20:49] Queenslayer: i doubt that's a Linux principle :) multiple routability is a pretty basic concept [20:49] :D [20:49] ubuntu645: right, so what i'd like to confirm is if a not-previously-configured Ubuntu does the right thing [20:49] ubuntu996: rather [20:49] nacc, you're probably right [20:50] I've only a week old Linux convert [20:50] *I'm [20:50] when i try to decrypt using gpg [20:50] Queenslayer: you'd be surprised how much is not "Linux" but "what your distro decided to do" [20:50] gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available [20:50] but i made a key pair [20:50] so not sure why its not availible [20:50] ? [20:51] nacc, I managed to get my troublesome UEFI working after a lot of graft and has made me feel like Superman(much to the detriment of some poor users here) :P [20:51] nacc, agreed, UEFI is definitely not a Linux issue [20:52] can someone please help me get livvirt to run? [20:52] Lope: did you reboot after installing apparmor? [20:52] Lope: is this on a standard ubuntu 16.04 install?

[20:53] err, 'start server1' [20:54] root@neomonolith:~# `bash -x /etc/init.d/memcached start server1 2>&1 | pastebinit` ? [20:54] hrm [20:54] subsume: the reason i asked is the output indicates this gets caleld: [20:54] systemctl_redirect /etc/init.d/memcached start [20:54] which is why it looks the same as not passing server1 at all [20:54] right [20:55] did you check out my init script? [20:55] like i said, it doesn't really seem to come as advertised [20:55] and this is a fresh 16.04 install so that's kinda concerning [20:55] O nice! There are ppl here! [20:55] subsume: just to be sure, did you have ENABLE_MEMCAHED=yes in /etc/default/memcached?

[20:57] Queenslayer: i assume so, but not sure [20:58] nacc, best way for now [20:58] I honestly thought he's entering his wifi key wrong [20:58] Queenslayer: could also be true [20:59] nacc: well is the syntax simply incompatible? should someone in ubuntu or memcached know about this? [21:00] subsume: Background info ?? : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers , Good ?

[21:01] fresh install [21:02] hi guys Queenslayer nacc Drone` [21:02] its the image that linode uses, if you tell me how i can better validate if its actually the latest install [21:02] subsume: i have a feeling i was the last to touch it in ubuntu, so give me a second :) [21:02] subsume: All I am aware is that the scrips under upsatrt (14.04) will not be honored under systemd (16.04) . [21:02] I am typing from a live cd [21:03] ubuntu027: wireless working? [21:03] Ubuntu 8.10 [21:03] wb ubuntu027 [21:03] intepid [21:03] intrepid ibex [21:03] :D [21:03] ubuntu027: ugh, well, that's quite old, but does the wireless work? [21:03] Excellent [21:03] Bashing-om: seems partially honored or something. i can get the daemon to work even respecting many options [21:03] wireless working [21:03] ubuntu027: right, so my guess is you should reinstall your laptop [21:03] ubuntu027: and not have just moved the hdd over [21:03] yep, I think I will do that in a near future [21:03] :) [21:03] subsume: *differnetly* honored [21:03] thanks guys [21:04] Is there any way he can 'extract' drivers nacc ? [21:04] Queenslayer: i mean, 8.10 is too old to be relevant [21:04] I will come and visit you when I have sorted everything [21:04] subsume: Apologize if I am mis-directing .. Have not run a server to this time under systemd . [21:04] cheers [21:04] but *if* it works stock in 8.10, i'd expect it to work under a nromal install of 14.04 and 16.04 as well [21:04] nacc, defo [21:04] that's "expectation" to be clear, not guarantee :) [21:05] but I had a weird issue with Xubuntu and stock [21:05] my 99% certainty guess is that there is a layer of init-stuff that is missing in the previously installed system to support hte "new" hardware [21:05] Stock detected wireless during install [21:05] Xubuntu didn't [21:05] Queenslayer: you mean you installed ubuntu 16.04, then xubuntu-desktop and your wireless stopped working? or it works under gnome but not udner xfce? [21:06] No Xbuntu distro [21:06] i erased Ubuntu [21:06] Queenslayer: ok [21:06] Queenslayer: and when you say wireless stopped working, doyou mean it doesn't associate, or not detecte at all? [21:06] BCM43 driver wasn't installed in Xubuntu [21:07] I had to do it manually [21:07] Not detect at all [21:07] I did it from the live CD [21:07] really weird [21:08] Queenslayer: that might be a flavor decision, not sure, or mabye you didn't have extra repositories defined in the xubuntu case by default, not sure [21:08] But I'll keep faffing around with these things to find out what it was, I just think there other dependencies for it that weren't updated [21:08] nacc, I think so [21:10] subsume: so i think that init script was last touched in 2014 [21:10] mabye 2013 [21:11] gotcha [21:11] subsume: and is fully ignored by systemd [21:11] well, almost fully [21:11] there's a wrapper to parse /etc/default/memcached [21:11] so they call this 16.04 a LTS huh [21:11] oh really [21:13] what to do? [21:13] i let them know in #memcached [21:13] yeah, it gets installed in /usr/share/memcached/scripts/systemd-memcached-wrapper [21:13] but i don't think they are really the maintainers [21:13] subsume: i mean, they'll probably say they don't care [21:13] does Ubuntu 16.04 have problems with nVidia cards? [21:13] subsume: that's upstream, not the ubuntu maintainers [21:13] subsume: you probably should file an ubuntu bug [21:13] yep [21:13] !bug | subsume [21:13] subsume: 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. [21:13] subsume: but, to be clear, while i see why this init-script is confusing [21:14] subsume: what is your underlying isuse? [21:14] nacc: i guess just that, reading the init script and trying to make it work as advertised [21:14] if its garbage then it shouldn't be included in the release imho [21:14] subsume: ah ok, so if i, say, deleted said init-script (not sure i can, or need to), or modified it to not have that example ... [21:14] subsume: we generally take in debian [21:14] it's in debian, so it's in ubuntu [21:14] oh, gotcha [21:14] subsume: arguably this is debian bug, but i'd need to check that to be sure [21:14] yeah, i mean as it is its just a gun on the table to mislead and waste time [21:15] subsume: i'll run some VMs/containers and see what i can figure out [21:15] subsume: if you do file the bug, feel free to subscribe me (this nick is my launchpad id) [21:15] in debian or ubuntu [21:15] folder|: No, maybe some games do ? What is the particular issue ? [21:15] the fan speed seems to be pegged at 100% [21:16] when I installed there was no prompt to install 3rd party drivers [21:16] subsume: we can start in ubuntu -- it's in main, which means it is properly supported, as well === brayden_ is now known as Blaster [21:17] Hey guys, my capture card outputs raw AVI with PCM audio. In Ubuntu 14.04 the audio would be recognised and play inside of mplayer/videos, and would work fine in Kdenlive. However, on 16.04 Kdenlive and Mplayer see no audio. Ubuntu Restricted Extras is installed. The file plays correctly in VLC. Any ideas? [21:17] folder|: Hardware ? ' lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D' ' in a pastebin .. see what driver is needed . === hugo_ is now known as hurasafe [21:18] Bashing-om sorry the machine is at home right now. I was checking to see if it was a known issue or if I needed to really dig in there [21:18] My first time using Ubuntu :D [21:19] folder|: Generally, 'buntu "just works" .. Nvidia is well supported . But there are those times we must dig . [21:19] I saw that there were generic drivers and then there were specific drivers made specifically by nvidia [21:19] I didn't see any type of advanced graphics tuning in the general settings either [21:19] Dexster: are you using hmmm gnome-player to play it back? for I've found the issue is the player itself, not the lack of codecs === DLmass is now known as DLmass|Thoughts === DLmass|Thoughts is now known as DLmass === DLmass is now known as id === id is now known as DLmass [21:20] bprompt, my issue isn't so much that the default video player won't play the audio back, it's the fact that kdenlive won't. [21:21] will Ubuntu throw a fit if I enable SSH and then just remove the GPU? This machine is intended to be a PLEX server anyway [21:21] subsume: if you wouldn't mind testing, if you just `mv /etc/init.d/memcached /etc/init.d/memcached.bak` and then do `systemctl start memcached`, does it start? [21:21] folder|: Yeah .. we are open source .. and have the option to install proprietary softwares . Many times a proprietary graphic's driver does better . Not always the case . I do better with open source drivers on my AMD system . [21:22] nacc: there's no output [21:22] nacc: i'd rather not stop and start since its on a prod server [21:23] folder|: I do think that with no graphic's card .. the ubuntu system will have conniption fits . [21:24] subsume: no problem, wasn't sure fo the context [21:24] subsume: yes, i believe no output means systemd is happy [21:24] so yeah it worked okay [21:24] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1585375 [21:24] Launchpad bug 1585375 in Ubuntu "memcached init script deprecated" [Undecided,New] [21:24] subsume: right, so i will talk to other devs to understand better, but if you could file the bug, i'll pick i tup [21:25] subsume: great, thank you! and thanks for helping make ubuntu better :) [21:25] Dexster: hmmm I don't use kdenlive myself hmm tried on some other suite? [21:27] subsume: another question for you, did this used to work in 14.04, e.g.? [21:27] bprompt, no I haven't. Kdenlive has been an amazing tool for all of the youtube content I create. [21:27] nacc: i never really used that /etc/memcached_X.conf syntax before. I was just trying it out because of the crashes [21:28] is everything in /etc/init.d junk now? [21:29] subsume: not necessarily [21:29] subsume: if something has a .service file, then it doesn't need an init-script, aiui [21:29] where do those go? [21:31] Dexster: how about Dragon player? does it give you the sound? I mean.... does kwin or kde gets sound? just wondering if it's kde multimedia settings [21:31] subsume: e.g., /lib/systemd/system/memcached.service [21:31] cool [21:32] subsume: i *think* all such service files live there, but there might be other paths. i'm not a systemd expert [21:32] subsume: in talking to other devs, it might be that the init-script is still usable with upstart [21:32] subsume: which might be why it was shipped [21:32] subsume: but if so, it should have a big comment in it :) [21:35] subsume: lots of things in init.d will redirect to systemctl/systemd in a sneaky way, via /lib/lsb/init-functions [21:36] try e.g. /etc/init.d/cron status [21:36] Seveas: yep, that's what i'm learning [21:36] subsume: so i think that's what happens when you invoked the script directly [21:36] it sourced the init-functions and that redirected [21:36] yup [21:36] sh -x /etc/init.d/cron status will give you more insight [21:36] Seveas: thanks for the insight! [21:36] Seveas: yeah, that's what i had subsume provide for memcached [21:37] Seveas: the issue is with 16.04 there are some comments in the init-scrip [21:37] that don't actually do what they say :) [21:37] I wish they would just kill the initscripts [21:37] Seveas: i'm assumign that is an eventual goal [21:37] once they can get rid of upstart altogether [21:37] but sadly Debian wants to keep giving people the stupid choice of not doing systemd [21:37] as i think upstart still uses them directly, or can [21:38] i heard ubuntu got rid of a lot of init scripts now in the transition to systemd. there are only some few left. [21:38] upstart is irrelevant in this goal. It's Debian's goal of supporting non-linux kernels, so systemd can't be used. [21:38] Seveas: i'm not sure, but i think systemd-only will be in ubuntu eventually [21:38] Seveas: yeah, but it can be in ubuntu :) [21:38] nacc: I do hope so. [21:38] k1l: yeah, there are far fewer now generally [21:39] hurricane:~$ ls /etc/init.d/ | wc -l [21:39] 69 [21:39] k1l: but for packages synced or re-merged to debian, they might have come back in [21:39] bprompt, Dragonplayer can not play the file [21:39] Seveas: heh, fair point :) [21:39] nacc: tgm4883 thanks. got libvirt working. got another issue now. [21:39] I changed from Debian 8 to Ubuntu 16.04. Now my NFSv3 clients can't mount my NFS shares. Any ideas? (using exact same IPs and config files etc). They can SEE the shares by running `rpcinfo -p 1.2.3.4`. Kernel upgraded from 3.16 to 4.4. Any ideas? [21:40] When the clients try mount from NFSv3 it just lags, lags, lags, then times out. [21:40] Lope: any firewalls in between? [21:40] Lope: just to be sure, you've loaded the NFS v3 module in the host? [21:40] k1l: or never been removed :) [21:41] i [21:41] hi [21:41] Seveas: the exact same firewall or at least should be. [21:41] Maybe my /etc/systemctl is diff. [21:42] Lope: does showmount -e ip.of.nfs.server work? [21:43] Dexster: hmm then it's a kde issue it seems.... check if you have the libavcodec-extra and libavcodec-ffmpeg installed [21:44] getting a pretty dreaded error under somewhat high CPU load on a 16 cpu 14.04 box http://dpaste.com/3B1316E [21:44] Dexster: bear in mind that VLC comes with its own codecs, thus [21:45] bprompt, I've just realised I basically have no gstreamer stuff installed [21:45] k1l, hey so it just loads a command promt [21:45] i need to install a GUI [21:46] Seveas: yes, it shows all the exported stuff [21:47] Lope: hmm. Time to dig into /var/log on client and server and see if you can find anything odd. If not, maybe even break out tcpdump. [21:48] Dexster: ahh... IIRC kde uses gstreamer as phonon backend [21:48] django_: did you install "lubuntu desktop" now? [21:48] no [21:48] i need the command for installing lubuntu [21:49] oh it's django_ again :d [21:49] django_: why dont you just run the isntaller again and do a proper install? [21:49] the mini iso starts with a text installer, pretty sinple [21:49] c/simple [21:49] k1l, this is for a vbox [21:49] it takes for ever to install [21:49] django_: sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktopp [21:49] at least an hr [21:49] bprompt, I'm forever seeing this Python (v3.5) requires to install plugins to play media files of the following type: audio/x-avi-unknown decoder [21:49] django_: typo desktop [21:49] django_: you can install "lubuntu-desktop" package if you have a running system [21:50] sebsebseb, how do i know whih desktop i currently have? [21:50] k1l, yeah i have a running system [21:50] django_: just joined, what did you install or whatever? [21:50] django_: you said you have no desktop [21:50] no [21:50] i said i have no GUI [21:50] but i have a cmd prompt [21:50] django_: so what did you install? [21:50] k1l, http://imgur.com/vUtRK0f [21:50] django_: when the computer boots up? [21:50] django_: that looks like the minimal /server install. [21:51] django_: ok you got that [21:51] django_: which ISO did you install Ubuntu from? [21:51] sebsebseb, lubuntu [21:51] django_: so do "sudo apt install lubuntu-desktop" [21:51] trow away that vm and start again, and check the videomem/cpu settings before installing [21:51] sebsebseb: he used the netinstall iso but didnt choose a desktop package [21:51] * sebsebseb gets that at times after uhmmm well the Unity 8 stuff :d the ppa stuff. and something else, so makes sense [21:52] Dexster: sounds like some python app, is all, using python 3.5 for its language, IIRC 16.04 comes with python 2.7.11 [21:52] django_: the other day I helped you re install Ubuntu [21:52] sebsebseb, yeah it hasnt worked since then [21:52] just kidding [21:52] this is for a virtual box [21:52] django_: the net install isn't really for a standard Ubuntu install, and aimed at more experienced users [21:52] gonna gym while ths downloads brb [21:53] Seveas: nothing strange in any of the logs [21:53] nacc: I didn't know there is a nfsv3 module? [21:53] django_: and yeah no GUI in net install, can try the command for lubuntu-desktop though [21:53] sebsebseb, yeah im tryng that [21:55] how can I check if the nfsv3 module is loaded? lsmod nfsv3.ko [21:55] I found the module files, but how do I check? [21:55] Lope: is it listed in "lsmod"? [21:56] hello eerybody [21:56] ah, nfsv3 is not listed in lsmod. [21:56] i'm having some issues with nouveau drivers on ubuntu 16.04 [21:56] can anyone help me? [21:56] but I found it in lib modules /fs/nfs/nfsv3.ko [21:56] is this the right place for this? [21:57] mattfag: yes, just ask [21:57] okay I loaded it. modprobe nfsv3. it loaded without error. [21:57] anyway, i did apt-get purge nvidia* bumblebee*, but i couldn't get rid of nouveau [21:57] But now I still cant mount it from the client. [21:58] i mean, i do know nouveau is a driver for my gpu, but i don't want to use the gpu anymore [21:58] I want to use mesa [21:58] and leave the gpu off [21:58] how to do this? [21:59] mattfag: erm, disable the gpu in bios? [21:59] no, just in the os] [21:59] hello I am trying to still ubuntu with windows. When I boot to the installer I have no option to install alongside windows. Anyone know why? [21:59] just in ubuntu [21:59] iirc nouveau is inside the kernel. [21:59] yes, but how to disable that? [22:00] TheSilentLink: that could be because windows and the recovery partitions exceed already the maximum of 4 primary partitions. so the installer cant make new partitions to install ubuntu [22:00] i mean, i didn't had this nouveau messages before the login, and the system is taking longer to boot now [22:00] k1l: so I need to delete one? [22:01] TheSilentLink: open a terminal on that live-system and run "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999" and show the url here [22:01] what should i do to start Xorg with mesa? [22:01] instead of nouveau [22:02] k1l: ok I will boot into ubuntu [22:02] i don't want to use nouveau-gpu, just mesa-cpu [22:03] !nomodeset | mattfag [22:03] mattfag: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [22:03] k1l: what is the command again? [22:03] OK, anyone know the Ultimate Voodoo to teach ubuntu to freaking leave the lid-closure alone? Screen-off is perfect: sleep/hiber/shutdown I can do myself. [22:03] mattfag: blacklist the nouveau in the /etc/modprobe.d/nouveau.conf . but i dont know if that will work as expected. like giving you a working desktop. honestly i doubt it === Blaster is now known as Guest25690 [22:03] TheSilentLink: open a terminal on that live-system and run "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999" and show the url here [22:04] mattfag: 'nomodest' defeats Kernel Mode Setting .. thus the fall back driver (vesa) is loaded . [22:04] hm [22:04] PoppaVic: system settings -> energie [22:05] I've already done the battery/settings; the screenlock. Next? [22:05] ah, there is a kernel boot parameter "nouveau.blacklist=1" mattfag [22:05] K1l: http://termbin.com/bozj [22:05] mattfag: If this is a laptop .. not a good long range solution .. as other things are also diabled with that boot parameter . [22:06] TheSilentLink: like i said: its already using 4 primary partitions, which is the limit. [22:06] k1l: ok but which one do I remove [22:07] TheSilentLink: i dont know. 2 is the windows loader. 3 is windows. 1 and 4 are diagnose partitions, like the recovery things from the manufacturer. [22:07] hi what's the best way to install the latest nvidia drivers in 16.04. currently have the tested nvidia drivers installed [22:08] k1l: well can't just remove the manufacturer stuff [22:08] anyone have any Plex knowledge? Have it set up, but running into weird issue I can't figure out on my own [22:09] i found this but am not sure http://askubuntu.com/questions/301648/how-to-install-nvidia-driver-in-ubuntu [22:09] TheSilentLink: if you remove the manufacturer stuff there might be that some functions like the recovery or such dont work anymore. that is your decision. i would boot windows, shrink the partition 3 from within windows. then remove 4 and make a new "extended" and put the ubuntu partitions into that extended one. [22:10] e-coffee: Consider .. purge the present driver and allow the system to choose what it thinks best ' sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' ?? [22:10] k1l: but can Windows boot if the loader isn't there? [22:10] ok, so... "Ubuntu has broken lid-close and management routines". Got it. [22:11] ok Bashing-om ty [22:11] TheSilentLink: 2 is the loader partition for win. you can even reinstall win and only use 1 partition at all for windows. [22:12] TheSilentLink: its just the manufacturers dont care about that. [22:13] k1l: o sorry miss read it what is partition 4? [22:13] e-coffee: If the file /etc/X11/Xorg.conf exists .. need to 'rm' it also in purging drivers . [22:13] its labeled "diag". i dont know what it is. your manufacturer could tell you that exactly [22:13] ok ty Bashing-om :) [22:15] i need a c64 simulator [22:15] k1l: o ok but I seem to have 2 diag partitions. But if I get a Windows install cd I can just use that to reinstall Windows right? If so what is the point of the recovery partitions [22:16] so you get the bloated windows preinstall with drivers but all that test programs from your manufacturer. [22:17] k1l: lol I would rather not have the bloat ware [22:17] k1l: so you recommend delete the 4th partition which is 821mb? [22:18] Hey everyone [22:18] When I hit the super key on my 16.04 systems, it minimizes whatever window is on top [22:18] TheSilentLink: as i said: i am just guessing with the diag partitions. but i would not erase 1 for windows to get not confused when their partition numbers change. [22:19] it doesn't do that when I hit the dash button manually [22:19] any ideas? [22:19] lerner, "vice" - is a Commodore emulator [22:19] lerner: "apt search searchterm" should always be the first stop. [22:21] k1l: well tbh I don't care about the bloatware install of Windows. So if I delete the diag partition which is 821mb I should me fine right? I have all ready skrinked the window partition [22:21] yes [22:22] k1l: ok but how do I delete it cause I can't do it in Windows for some reason [22:22] boot the live-ubuntu. then start "gparted" and delete it. then start the installer (its a program on the desktop or launcher) [22:23] k1l: thanks for your help [22:23] curious, kegafusion wont let me save states, but the directory is not root editable only... [22:24] Hi, how do I report an issue with a package? [22:24] the glm package is missing the cmake configuration [22:25] k1l: btw I am guessing I will have free space can I add it to my other partition?

[23:26] * squinty thinks he will figure it out in a "jiffe" :P [23:27] TheSilentLink: gedit is a GUI tool .. a no no no to start it with 'sudo' BAd bad side effects . The file does exist ; " sysop@1404mini:~$ ls -al /boot/grub/grub.cfg >> -r--r--r-- 1 root root 41455 May 24 16:30 /boot/grub/grub.cfg . [23:27] is I want to use XFCE but not most of the Xubuntu core apps am I better off installing Ubuntu and adding XFCE DE or is that messier than stripping Xubuntu and adding apps I want? [23:28] squinty, copying the files from .mozilla-thunderbird to .thunderbird doesn't work [23:28] Lope: did you figure out your nfs issue?

[23:28] thunderbird wants to make a new config [23:29] 3.8G installed; 2.9G swap with 0 being used [23:29] TheSilentLink: I can not say .. all depends on the menu position in that file .. the numbering starts at '0' . The file to edit is /etc/default/grub .

[23:31] cosmicfires, you have to copy the files under the .thunderbird directory in your home folder ( for example /home/squinty/.thunderbird/1xjd1d2s.default to a usb (or other storage medium) and then delete all files in the new thunderbird .thunderbird folder and then copy your old ones into it [23:31] TheSilentLink: Yeah .. count .. after reading up on the link provided . [23:32] does ubuntu still keep the same version of packages within an LTS or might they be upgraded in an update release like 16.04.1 ? [23:32] <_28_ria> Hello, Ubuntu 16.04, I've been using nVidia graphics card.Now I've decided to plugin one more monitor.Inserted an AMD graphics card,but display doesn't come up.When I go to Display in settings panel,it shows only 2 monitors,connected to the nVidia card.AMD card doesn't show up.In programs and updates it shows only proprietary drivers for nVidia,but no AMD.lspci shows that AMD coard is plugged in. [23:32] I'll try again, I have the old disk online too so I copied from it [23:32] cosmicfires, it works as I have done that routine many times over the years :-) [23:32] the old thunderbird uses .mozilla-thunderbird could it be too old? [23:32] Bashing-om: o ok so I am guessing I need to reboot and count the number of entries there are [23:32] so enlarge my swap partition? [23:32] jiffe: no major, just security updates yes [23:33] _28_ria, check to see if there is a driver available [23:33] <_28_ria> compdoc: shows only nVidia [23:33] <_28_ria> in programs and updates [23:33] <_28_ria> compdoc: is there some other way to check? [23:33] well here I have after reading up on the link provided Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-22-generic Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-4.4.0-22-generic Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-21-generic [23:33] Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-4.4.0-21-generic [23:33] Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.elf [23:33] Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.bin Found Windows Recovery Environment (loader) on /dev/sda1 Found Windows 10 (loader) on /dev/sda2 so I am guessing there are 8 right? [23:34] cosmicfires, look in that directory for your files. the default (if there is only one account that is) should be listed in there and that is the folder you want to copy the contents of [23:34] ok [23:34] sorry, type. 3.8 installed RAM, 3.9 swap space [23:34] _28_ria, system>preferences>hardware>additional drivers. is that where you looked? [23:34] <_28_ria> compdoc: yes [23:34] TheSilentLink: No reboot needed .. the entries will not change . count to the menu entry tou want as default . and edit /etc/default/grub . " GRUB_DEFAULT=X" .save the file .. and propagate the change with 'sudo update-grub' . [23:35] _28_ria, there might be a way of installing the driver for it, but I dont know how [23:35] _28_ria: note, you can't have both nvidia and ati propritary drivers installed at the same time (or historically you couldn't?) [23:36] <_28_ria> zykotick9: how about proprietary nVidia, as it is now and open source AMD? [23:36] _28_ria: i have no idea... good luck.
