YankDownUndereffectnet, If it's not started already, you can start it from the CLI00:02
roundduckmanI installed it with encryped home, but later on I deleted the encrypted swap because a prompt for a password would show at the boot screen at times ever since I restored my system using testdisk, because I accidently wiped the partition table. I was planning to turn back on encrypted swap, but an error happened after using that ecryptfs-setup-swap command, saying "stat of /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 failed: no such file or directory"00:03

LasivianDoes anyone know how I can make a link from the Ubuntu Desktop to a folder on a networked windows drive?00:04

DesuLasivian: short story: don't00:04
LasivianI have a cifs link to the windows drive that functions, but I can;t link to it00:04

LasivianDesu: well, yeah.. I just want to easily open the 3D files that I use on my printer. I store them on the windows Raid.00:05
LasivianDesu: The repetier software defaults to the desktop when I try to open a file00:05

roundduckman@Umeaboy I installed it with encryped home, but later on I deleted the encrypted swap because a prompt for a password would show at the boot screen at times ever since I restored my system using testdisk, because I accidently wiped the partition table. I was planning to turn back on encrypted swap, but an error happened after using that ecryptfs-setup-swap command, saying "stat of /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 failed: no such file or di00:06
roundduckmanrectory" Somehow, though, after reversing my failed ecryptfs-setup-swap attempt, and recreating another unencrypted swap, my boot is slower.00:06
Umeaboyroundduckman: I have no idea really. Encryption and /swap is not my field of experteese.00:09
roundduckman@Umeaboy maybe it's the updates then.00:09
UmeaboyGoogle the issue.00:09
UmeaboyTo see if someone else has had this issue as well00:09
UmeaboyOr add a new question on askubuntu.com with valid and detailed information.00:09

tominator88Hiya!01:55
tominator88Can someone give me a hand? This is my first time01:55
somsiptominator88: ask your real question01:55
deadmundtominator88: what do you need help with?01:56
tominator88I need help with a standalone ubuntu flashdrive that I'm hoping to take around with me. It only shows as a bootable option on some computers01:56
pantatotominator88: Rufus for Windows is a usb stick creator that I know of that never doesn't work01:56
pantatomy 2 cents01:57
deadmundtominator88: it works on some computers?  What happens on the other computers?  Did you get into the bios of those other computers?01:57
Guest82508Hello01:57
pantatoGuest82508: hi01:57
Guest82508I know this is probably not the right place to ask this01:57
Guest82508but01:57
Guest82508do you know why cant I access any .onion irc links01:58
somsipGuest82508: it's not the right place to ask01:58
tominator88It works on the majority of 64bit PC's and seems to work on every mac after 2013. Unfortunately, It doesn't work on any others.01:58
somsiptominator88: does it not work on 32bit machines by any chance?01:58
Guest82508So i reckoin that is just a support channel01:58
Guest82508?01:58
Guest82508D01:58
tominator88For example, a 2012 macbook pro, and a windows 10 Lenovo01:59
tominator88It does not.01:59
somsiptominator88: is it a 64bit install?01:59
somsipGuest82508: yes - ubuntu support. Try a tor channel01:59

somsiptominator88: that's why it doesn't run on a 32bit machine01:59
tominator88Yes, sorry, I mean it doesn't work on some 64 bit02:00
WattisLoveHi, when I get this box "ubuntu has experienced an error... send a report" am I really actually sending a report? How do I see the report I'm seeing?02:00
somsiptominator88: yes - lag in answers I think. Probably a UEFI thing then02:00
tominator88I understand the 32 bit 64 bit difference02:00
deadmundtominator88: In order to boot USB, you have to go into the bios of the target machine and tell it to boot from USB and to boot USB before the harddrive.  Many computers will be set by default to boot from the interal HDD BEFORE they even look at the USB devices.  Could that be the problem??02:00
tominator88yes! is there any way for me to insert a UEFI boot into grub or something?02:01
somsiptominator88: that's not the issue, AIUI02:01
somsip!uefi | tominator8802:01
ubottutominator88: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI02:01
tominator88No, it does not show on the systems at all. A live CD does work however, as well as a clonedisk USB02:01
deadmundtominator88: What?  UEFI boot is a standard implemented by the hardware, it's not in the USB drive (the USB drive must support and it newer ubuntu editions do support it)02:01
tominator88I must have some vocabulary mixed up then...02:02
tominator88Basically, my Ubuntu flash drive is not appearing on some computers, even with USB boot and all enabled.02:02
tominator88Is there any easy way around this?02:03
somsiptominator88: nothing else immediately springs to mind then02:03
deadmundtominator88: I'm also not sure.  You'd have to figure it out on a case by case basis.02:03
tominator88It's quite unusual.02:03
deadmundtominator88: Is there anything in common with all the PCs that it doesn't work on??02:03
tominator88I cannot get it to work on one windows 10 PC, and any mac before 201302:04
tominator88I have seen it work on a computer with UEFI(??)02:05
arunpyasiEriC^^: hello are you around ?02:05

tominator88It's split into 3 partitions, and they all run ext4 or fat3202:06
tominator88Does it have anything to do with grub?02:07
somsiptominator88: I'd guess at something in the MBR or boot sector that some computers aren't happy about. But no real idea so I'll stop guessing02:08

deadmundMy ubuntu 14.04 install is unable to play WMV files with dragon player (KDE) or vlc player.  I have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed.  Any ideas?02:14
arunpyasisomsip: the thing is, I have two HDD, one which boots normally, another which seems crashed. The problem is, The HDD where I had installed Ubuntu, after it rebooted, I get some error Out of memory..... systemd-udev..... and Killing process.... etc when I boot using that HDD and the same error comes when I boot Ubuntu using an USB. But when I replace the HDD, I don't get any error and works fine. So, I can now declare that my previous HDD had problem.02:14
arunpyasiHow can I resolve it ? How can I recover my files and how do I format it again ? Please help ! When I insert both HDD and try booting with a good HDD, it gives the same error too.02:15
somsiparunpyasi: boot normally, copy your files over, format the drive. Either it's that simple or I don't understand your problem02:16
sifridasd02:16
arunpyasisomsip: The problem is, I cannot boot normally when I insert that crashed HDD02:17
arunpyasiI get the same error02:17
somsiparunpyasi: but you say you one HDD boots normally02:17
arunpyasisomsip: yeah but when I connect that crashed HDD and boot with my normal HDD, I get the same error/stucks the boot after grub is load.02:18
somsiparunpyasi: so the disk is dead. You may not be able to anything without resorting to a professional data recovery service02:19
Bashing-omdeadmund: Restricted formats // did you run : ' sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh ' ? see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs .02:21

arunpyasisomsip: I don't need data recovery TBH. I just want to check the health of the HDD and format it if possible02:23
Bashing-omdeadmund: K, however WMV, that is a restricted video format .02:23

filifunkJordan_U, I don't think so, but it's possible03:53
drownwhat are the filesystem types listed as>?03:54
drownhow many partitions/drives do you have?03:54
drownand what kind of output do you get for blkid03:54
filifunkhmmm...all of them are like this: (hd1,gpt8) (hd1,gpt7) all the way to gpt1, then there is als (hd0) and (hd1).  "Unknown command 'blkid"03:55
drownokay03:57
drownso gpt is the partition table type not the FS type03:57
drownso you have 8 driveS?03:57
drownerh03:57
drownpartitions?03:57
drownand 2 drives?03:57
YankDownUnder...could just a boot a live USB and use gparted to figure out what's what...if that's not been mentioned as of yet...03:58
drownyeah seriously that's the way to go here03:58
filifunkyes I believe so.  I have my ISO on my usb and I started my laptop with it in and it still went to this grub rescue screen03:58
drownwell03:58
drownyou need to intervene and boot to usb03:59
drownwhen it goes to grub it's booting off the HDD bootloader03:59
drownI'm assuming you've booted to USB before right?03:59
YankDownUnderfilifunk, When the machine is booting up, did you use the "Boot menu" via your BIOS? (Might be a good idea just to check the settings in BIOS - and then when booting to the live USB, hit ESC and make sure it's not booting to the grub on the HD0)04:00
filifunkyes, I have, but that was a long time ago.  Am I supposed to press f1 or something when I restart04:00
drownit's different for all machines04:00
YankDownUnderfilifunk, Depends on your machine's BIOS, bro.04:00
drownon mine it's f904:00
YankDownUnderDouble-check. Being redundant is always a good thing. Saves a person from doing silly things...or at least, in most cases it does...04:01
drownwhat model is the machine?04:01
filifunkit's an old ASUS.  I just tried to turn off my computer then turn it back on, and there is no BIOS screen or booting screen it goes strait to grub menu04:02
FLeiXiuSF1, F10, DEL, F804:02
FLeiXiuSOne of them will work04:02
prelude2004cI think i am soooo done with this OS04:02
prelude2004c6 hours later.. still " Xlib:  extension "NV-GLX" missing on display ":0". "04:02
prelude2004c20 reboots, 50 purges... 100 reinstalls04:02
filifunkok so I'm just going to try all of those when I turn my computer on04:02
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, Its not the OS fault ;-)04:02
prelude2004cits a pain in the ass is what it is :*(04:03
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, welcome to linux.04:03
prelude2004ci have tried all the google links.. none of it wokrs04:03
filifunkI just pushed a bunch of buttons and somehow got my BIOS screen04:03
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, Do you have a display at all?04:03
prelude2004cits a remote server04:03
prelude2004ci have to get vdpau working and it needs X running04:03
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, remote server, so you're attempting a remote X session?04:04
prelude2004cnope.. just want to run it so my ffmpeg library ( VDPAU ) can access decoding on my nvidia card04:04
FLeiXiuSPastie `lspci` and `lshw` and `dpkg -l |grep nvidia` and ... lsmod04:05
zachHello?04:05
=== zach is now known as Guest95974
filifunkok, just booting from my usb.  thanks guys, hopefully I figure this out04:06
YankDownUnderfilifunk, Sometimes, just hitting "esc" and like "f2" will cause the machine to get to BIOS...and then you can change stuff in the BIOS - like the time for how long the POST screen stays up, what HD to boot from (or removable device) etc etc etc...04:06
YankDownUnderfilifunk, After you've gotten to the desktop, you can "ALT-F2" and type "sudo gparted" => should also WRITE DOWN what you find...hmm?04:06
filifunkok, will do YankDownUnder04:07
YankDownUnderfilifunk, Good luck, bro.04:07

FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, Ok, I expected a k4200m but it's just a k4200.04:12
prelude2004cyup.. K4200 is correct04:12
prelude2004ci mean 6 hours later.. what have i done to deserve this :(04:13
drownlinux is like god04:13
FLeiXiuSHow are you running ffmpeg and how was it installed?04:13
drownit tests you in horrible ways, but the lesson learned enriches you beyond your years04:13
=== Tundra-OldDsktop is now known as Tundra-Sleep
prelude2004cffmpeg is compiled from git.. ffmpeg is not even important yet until i get glxinfo & vdpauinfo going04:14
prelude2004conly when vdpauinfo gets me a result can i even attempt to use it04:14
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, So, you're decoding on a remote machine without an X session right?04:15
prelude2004cyes.. its just a server04:15
michaelrosedoes unity use gnome-session under the hood?04:15
YankDownUnderWhat is funny about that - especially in many years of retrospect, y'all have NO idea what it was like having to deal with driver installation or graphics stuff "way back when"...getting the source code and compiling FOR HOURS just to make a single item work...and graphics cards were the ultimate pain... :)04:15
prelude2004ci am decoding with CPU > nvenc .. i am tyring to decode on the card too which requires vdpau for the hwaccel04:15
drownmichaelrose, yes04:15
prelude2004cvdpau wants X04:15
michaelrosethank you04:15
drownmichaelrose, so gnome-session-quit will work04:15
drownmichaelrose, if that's what your looking for?04:16
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, vpdau wants X?  Says who?04:16
drownFLeiXiuS, I think for the input/output interfacing04:16
michaelrosedrown, its close enough, not worth explaining, that was just the info I was looking for04:16
drownmichaelrose, lol good luck.04:17
FLeiXiuSdrown, ffmpeg doesnt care when it comes to decoding04:17
prelude2004ci dont know... said vdpauinfo04:17
drownprelude2004c, hmm...04:18
prelude2004cneeds to connect to display:0 no ?04:18
prelude2004cunless you know something that i dont04:18
drownprelude2004c, if it's headless though dipsplays shouldn't be involved04:18
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, What is it you're trying to do?  Let's understand the end goal first.04:18
prelude2004cI need to use vdpau for the decoding library to use the nvidia hardware accell04:19
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, That still doesnt tell me what you're trying to do.04:19
prelude2004chttps://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/HWAccelIntro04:19
prelude2004ci am trying to decode h264 video on the video card not on the CPUs04:20
prelude2004cbecause i am actually transcoding from one source to another format04:20
prelude2004cso... right now encoding is working fine through nvenc ... the decoding is being handled by t he CPU.. which takes up too many resources04:20
prelude2004cvdpau takes care of that by using the nvidia card for decoding04:20
prelude2004cif you can get it working :(04:20
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, What are the sources?  Files?  PVR components, etc?04:21
prelude2004clive TS streams04:21
drownprelude2004c, television series?04:22
drownprelude2004c, tv shows?04:22
FLeiXiuSAnd you're outputting to a file?04:22
prelude2004clive tv yes04:22
prelude2004cyes i am segmenting to h264 HLS04:22
drownprelude2004c, the file is local?04:23
FLeiXiuSYou know the myth tools will do most of this for you, if not all.04:23
FLeiXiuSBut thats not answering your original question.04:23
drownprelude2004c, I've never used them, but he's probably right about that.04:23
drownprelude2004c, they were made with your situation in mind.04:24
FLeiXiuSmythffmpeg04:24
prelude2004cdrown not sure what you mean by local but... they are locally written files yes04:25
prelude2004cso, the issue is installation of the NVidia drivers with GLX support04:25
=== Kenrinx is now known as kenrin
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, So you basically, want to record live TV to files?04:25
prelude2004cthe nvidia drivers are working.. i actually see them and nvidia-smi reports .. all is well in the world04:25
FLeiXiuSSounds like a perfect job for myth.04:26
prelude2004cthe issues is this GLX extension that will not load04:26
drownprelude2004c,04:26
prelude2004cfleixius.. none of this is important.. i have been doing live tv for years... and using Nvtranscoder already and it si working...04:26
drownprelude2004c,  you need to edit the module file.04:27
prelude2004cthe issue is simply that i want to test with vdpau vs Nvtranscoder ( which does both encoding and decoding at the same time )04:27
prelude2004cedit module file?04:27
drownprelude2004c, There should be a text file which shows all of the Nvidia functions that are set to load04:27
FLeiXiuSprelude2004c, Sure - but why re-invent the wheel?  Your compile of ffmpeg sounds like its not loading the correct extensions.04:27
prelude2004chum?04:27
drownprelude2004c,  I've never seen it as an actual conf file, but with the Nvidia Xsettings gui panel they are all listed there04:28
prelude2004c<FLeiXiuS> i am not too sure i understand where you are going with this04:28
prelude2004cguys.. clearly nobody here has experience with ffmpeg :P .. i get that.. that is not even up for discussion .. all i am trying to do is get glxinfo and vdpauinfo working04:29
drownall of the Nvidia GLX libs and functions04:29
prelude2004cthe rest will work itself out :)04:29
prelude2004ci have used vdpau before.. this is  not the first time i have done this04:29
drownI use ffmpeg for transcoding audio.04:29
prelude2004cwhat i dont get is why on this ubuntu 14.04 i can't get the drivers loaded correctly04:29
drownfrom a server to ALL of my clients.04:29
drownprelude2004c, on the 14.04 install, that is the server right?04:30
prelude2004cyes server04:30
Ben64ffmpeg isn't even in 14.0404:30
drownprelude2004c, and it has no actual display? It's a truly headless setup?04:30
prelude2004ctrully headless04:30
drownprelude2004c, oh god...04:30
drownprelude2004c, ffmpeg is not in the repos but it can easily be installed or compiled04:31
Ben64and i'm pretty sure the avconv that comes with 14.04 doesn't have hw accel support04:31
drownprelude2004c, Do you have anconv?04:31
drowndpkg -l | grep aconv04:32
drownerr avconv04:32
FLeiXiuSGLX is only needed for X.04:33
prelude2004cno i dont have avconv04:33
FLeiXiuSTherefore, its not going to 'load' when there's no X present.04:33
drownFLeiXiuS, exactly.04:33
FLeiXiuSWhat are the ffmpeg errors04:33
prelude2004cyour saying i can use some avconv to decode with the hardware ?04:33
drownprelude2004c, it's meant to be used locally, it wasn't designed for your use case.04:34
prelude2004chum.. i am not following at all04:35
prelude2004coh i get it.. your saying use avconv to decode04:36
drownprelude2004c, umm04:36
prelude2004cbut i can't because source is UDP04:36
drownprelude2004c, avconv doesn't use hw accel04:36
prelude2004cok so that doesn't help me at all04:36
FLeiXiuS<- still waiting for ffmpeg errors.04:36
drownprelude2004c, according to Ben6404:36
drownprelude2004c, but, the thing is avconv is like a replacement in 14.04 for ffmpeg04:37
drownprelude2004c, as far as I remember, so I just wanted to make sure it wasn't installed.04:37
prelude2004clook vdpau i think requires GLX04:40
prelude2004cand GLX requires X04:40
prelude2004ci have X running but GLX wont load04:40
drownprelude2004c, can you give us the specific errors from ffmpeg?04:40
prelude2004cso if GLX wont load.. vdpau wont load04:40
prelude2004ci haven't gotten that far in the code but.. i remember that if " vdpauinfo " doesn't give you hardware details it does not work04:41
prelude2004cvdpauinfo has to kick back my K4200 cards04:41
prelude2004cnot give an error04:41
FLeiXiuSvpdau does not require X04:41
prelude2004chum... what does it require ?04:41
prelude2004ci am going to test it right now on esec04:42
FLeiXiuSIt requires X development files upon compile/install. libxcb-glx0-dev I believe it is.04:42
drownFLeiXiuS, , does Nvidia's driver integrate on top of X04:42
drownFLeiXiuS, and communicate through it?04:43
FLeiXiuSThe module operates independently.  X is only there to facilitate output04:43
drownFLeiXiuS, exactly, it's the i/o04:43
prelude2004calright for those of you who are skeptical :)04:44
FLeiXiuSX doesnt care about the input.04:44
prelude2004cError while decoding stream #0:4: Invalid data found when processing input04:44

prelude2004c${ffmpeg} -v 40 -vsync 0 -hwaccel vdpau -i "$stream" $mapping -f mpegts -04:44
prelude2004cthe issue is that vdpau can't talk to display :004:45
FLeiXiuSPreferably without the vars ;-)04:45
ravitejaRaviTeja04:45

drownprelude2004c, I'm sorry man, I think you can do it with that component, but I have to sleep now. I'd look at the documentation for xvfb04:55
drownxvfb probably stands for x server virtual frame buffer so I'd try looking for that.04:56

drownprelude2004c, hope you get it sorted man. night.04:57
prelude2004clooking thanx04:57
drownprelude2004c, Oh another thing, You might want to look at VLC's server documentation, chances are VLC might have an alternative.05:00
drownprelude2004c, VLC has so many tools for streaming and directing video you wouldn't believe.05:00
drownprelude2004c, lots of headless functions.05:01
drownprelude2004c, VLC has  integration with VDPAU05:03

akishi all. Ever since i fresh installed 16.04 I've never been notified of updates by Software Updater. Instead i should install updates manually. My settings are: Automatically check for updates: Daily-When there are security updates: Display immediately-When there are other updates: Display immediately. Under 14.04 no issue appeared. Any idea or help?05:55
Ben64akis: run "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to check if theres any problems05:57

ikoniayou still need to run a proper mail service.07:22

=== user__ is now known as akis
akis hi all. Ever since i fresh installed 16.04 I've never been notified of updates by Software Updater. Instead i should install updates manually. My settings are: Automatically check for updates: Daily-When there are security updates: Display immediately-When there are other updates: Display immediately. Under 14.04 no issue appeared. Any idea or help?07:27
ikoniaakis: are there updates pending ?07:28
BackwardsIkonia, thanks for the advice. I will take it under advisement. Many thanks.07:28
six86Hello. Is there a way to create a working USB installation medium for non UEFI systems? Even for UEFI systems it's a pain in the ass. The only working way is manually formatting and copyying over, but the the stick only works with uefi systems. I'm not able to create a stick for non UEFI BIOS systems...07:28
akisikonia: a lot. i proceeded on them manually using sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade07:29
Ben64six86: dd the iso to the flash drive, or use something like unetbootin, it's easy07:29
jnhghyHi, I have ubuntu 16.04 and gnome, I'm trying to show thunderbaird and firefox on my desktop is there an easy way to do this?07:29
ikoniaakis: sounds like the notification applet isn't working07:29
ikoniajnhghy: show ?07:30
six86Ben64: Tried those ways resulting in "No boot medium found" or similar messages. If it's working, then only in the efi system07:30
BackwardsKenrin thanks for your help. :)07:30
Ben64six86: you tried dd?07:30
six86Ben64: Yes.07:30
Ben64six86: then you're either doing it wrong, using a bad iso, or not ubuntu07:31
Ben64or the computer can't boot from usb, i guess07:31
BackwardsBen64 perhaps the boot order in his BIOS is not USB first.07:32
akisikonia: that's right. something like this. although there are many pending updates more than 24 hours, no notification pops up. i read similar complains here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2323320 and here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/158662507:32
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1586625 in update-manager (Ubuntu) "Update notification but no update manager icon in launcher ?" [Undecided,Confirmed]07:32
six86Ben64: It can. I used a preseeded 12.04 install stick for 2 years. Now after the transition to 16.04 everything gets messed up. usb-disk-creator, mkusb and unetbooting produce sticks that are not bootable and have no real partition (same as dd). Creating it manually (real partion sdb1 and then copyying the iso content wresults in a workign stick for efi systems but not for BIOS.07:33
Ben64six86: i guarantee you it works07:33
six86Boot order is not a problem, I am booting from the stick.07:34
Ben64well, dd at least. i've heard that certain usb creators don't work anymore07:34
six86Ben64: I can gurantee I have a problem and it is not the first stick were creating here.07:34
Ben64check the md5sum, use dd, try again07:34
six86Ben64: What state should the stick be in before dd? Shouldn't matter?07:35
Ben64doesn't matter07:35
six86Ben64: The sha checksum of the original image is correct, the iso I create while preseeding also is valid and installable, because it works damn fine in virtual environments.07:37
Ben64ah, so you change the iso07:38
six86Ben64: like I said before07:38

sector_0hateball, so the r9 290 has great support then?10:35
sector_0I wanna make sure that switching from the 7870HD to the r9 290 isn't going to introduce problems10:36
hateballsector_0: I do not know, I've been avoiding AMD for a decade+10:38
hateballsector_0: Since amdgpu is in the kernel it is likely you'll want to use a more recent kernel than 4.4 included in 16.0410:39
sector_0hateball, so nVidia has better support than AMD?10:46
sector_0I always thought AMD was better supported, since the company worked along with linux devs10:47
sector_0I even remember Linus Tarvolds once saying nVidia didn't cooperate well with the Linux dev team10:47
hateballsector_0: Well with nvidia you're relying on their binary blob, but it's well supported and the performance blows AMD out of the water10:48
hateballsector_0: But AMD has better open source drivers10:48
hateballAnd with some luck, maybe they'll get performance on par. But until then I will keep using nVidia anyhow10:49

Jakey3how can I connect to a homeserver without using DDns10:52
Ben64ip address10:52
Jakey3I have a vps10:53
Ben64then use that instead10:53
Jakey3home server has dynamic ip10:53
Ben64don't use a home server at all if you have a vps10:53
Jakey3I want to use my home server as vps is just a small DO droplet10:53
Ben64homes aren't for servers10:53
Jakey3I can create a vpn to my vps from my homeserver?10:54
Jakey3and then connect through the vps?10:54
Ben64sure, but why10:54
Jakey3I want to be able to connect to my homeserver all the time it has a dynanic ip and i dont dont want to use a ddns service10:55
BluesKajHey folks10:55
Jakey3I was looking for the standard way to do this10:55
Ben64Jakey3: no, use a real server10:55
k1l_Jakey3: then you will have to run an own ddns service at the vps.10:56
Jakey3i was thinking of writing a script to update the vps with my homeservers new ip each time each changed10:57
Ben64residential connections are: 1) residential, so running a server on it is likely against what they allow you to do 2) slow 3) bad10:57
k1l_Jakey3: you can use  bind9 for that. but that is not a beginners task which is done with installing a packge and doing one click.10:57
Jakey3im fine with learning new stuff10:57
k1l_then read yourself into bind910:58

Alxpaand should i do 64 bit or 3211:57
k1l_damien__: the digital clock in the panel is working. so what is the issue exactly?11:57
mcphailAlxpa: depends on whether you're going to use it in a 32 bit machine. If not, use 64 bit11:57
Alxpaok11:58
damien__i want a bigger one as well as the one pre-installed11:58
mcphailAlxpa: you'll have a choice of using your USB as a live disk (with or without peristence) or, if you want, you can do a full install of Ubuntu onto a USB disk11:58
Alxpai want to do full install,11:59
damien__i have tried installing it but when i look for it, it's not there.11:59
Alxpaalso, when i go to format there is no fat32, only exFat11:59
k1l_Alxpa: you cant do a full isntall on windows filesystems.12:00
k1l_Alxpa: you need ext4.12:00
mcphailAlxpa: you'll need to use smaller partitions for fat32. exfat is for large partitions. But, if you're installing Ubuntu, you don't need either12:00
Alxpamcphail: im using this12:02
Alxpahttps://rufus.akeo.ie/12:02
k1l_Alxpa: that will create a live-system. not a full isntall12:03

Alxpaso if i used the usb in 2 diffferent PCs i would not keep that data?12:04
mcphaildamien__: you still haven't given details, so no12:04

mcphail11:56 < mcphail> damien__: not without details? What clock, what desktop environment, what ubuntu version, what "is not working"?12:05

damien__im using 16.04 not sure wht the desktop enviroment is12:08
mcphaildamien__: is it the default desktop with the icons in the bar on the left?12:08

damien__which store12:14
mcphailAlxpa: if you set the live USB up with persistence enabled, you should be able to save things12:14

fucatuswell, after a while of trying to fix it, now all graphical surface is gone, but i still have access via console12:16
mcphailAlxpa: it is a feature of some software used to create the live USB, such as the one from Ubuntu itself12:16
fucatusis there a way for me to restore my graphics to the starting default?12:16

ikoniacomputer: if you do "sudo fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0" what do you get13:23
computerikonia: fdisk: cannot open /dev/mmcblk0: Input/output error13:23
ikoniacomputer: so I would suggest, a.) take the card out b.) reboot c.) plug the card back in d.) re-paste the "sudo fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0" command please13:24
computerok ikonia one moment13:24
damien__people seem to be quitting, i wonder why13:24
k1l_computer: could be due to the funny ways apple builds its hwardware:http://askubuntu.com/questions/170634/macbook-pro-8-1-ubuntu-12-04-sd-card-reader-doesnt-work13:24

computerhmmmm13:27
damien__the funny ways apple builds it's hardware! ahhh please, give me a break!13:27
ikoniacomputer: so it looks like it can't see the sd card, which could be tied into the link k1l_ is posting13:27
ikoniadamien__: stop now - I won't ask you again, help or be quiet13:27
k1l_computer: he says it could be working with using ethernet cable instead of wifi. (or shutting wifi down)13:27
damien__stop what!13:27
ikoniadamien__: these stupid snide remarks13:28
ikoniacomputer: if you plug/unplug the card, does the syslog show any change13:28
computerikonia: its ok, thanks for your help, i will use the SD card on the MAC OS X, i want to install raspian os for a raspberry pi. i am trying to leave mac os x and use only ubuntu.13:29
computerikonia: no13:29
ikoniacomputer: looks like that hardware is not happy in linux, I've got a later macbook pro that doesn't have this problem, so it could be down to the that specific model, I don't know without more research13:30
computerikonia: thanks, i always has problems with ubuntu in this laptop model, wifi doesn't work i have to install the hardware etc...13:32

LinnakHi, Which driver dou you recommend for nvidia card? bumblebee? nvidia-361? or nvidia-current?13:49
ikoniaLinnak: bumblebee is dead13:49
xdevnullikonia, ty13:50
Linnakikonia, Then which one from the other two?13:51
k1l_Linnak: ubuntu uses nvidia-prime instead of bumblebee. which is the official nvidia replacement shipped with the nvidia drivers.13:51
ikoniadepends on the card and how well either supports them, I suggest you research13:51
constructorproblirc 127.0.0.113:51
ikoniaconstructorprobl: ?13:51
k1l_Linnak: nvidia-current is 304 on ubuntu 16.04 while the 361 is 361 :)13:51
Linnakk1l_, I know. That's why I ask. Newer better or not as stable?13:52
k1l_Linnak: if your vard was made after 304 was released then you need the 361 driver. but 361 should be stable anyways13:53
Linnakk1l_, I have an old one. If I install 361, cause it a problem?13:56
k1l_Linnak: worth a try.13:56
Linnakk1l_, One more question please. Do I need to remove any driver after I install nvidia?14:00
k1l_Linnak: talking of what drivers?14:00

Harishello all14:04
Harisis there a stun server that we can setup for asterisk on ubuntu 14.4 LTS ?14:04
Randomnessi'm getting a laptop with 128 gb ssd and 4 gb ram, which i intend to install ubuntu 16.04 lts on. when doing so, should i create a swap partition? if the swap partition is used it will wear&tear the ssd, if i don't have it, most ram intensive program will crash if i need more ram than i got. any thoughts appreciated!14:05
Randomnessi could create a swap partition and limit swapiness from 60 down to 10 or even 0, but whats the point of the swap partition at all then?14:05
zykotick9Randomness: also consider, swap is required for hibernation...14:05
k1l_guyk: what ubunut is that exactly?14:05
guykI use ubuntu mate 160414:06

Randomnesszykotick9: from my understanding when i either lock or close the laptop lid ubuntu does not hibernate, if i lock it pretty much does nothing and if i close the lid it suspends. ill only ever shut it down, lock it or close the lid.14:07

mistawrighthi guys i have almost 70+ gigs of tmp files and need to clear them out. I can ls the directory nor run a command to delete by date. this is on a running server as well. what would be the best way to clear these files?14:07
Randomnessmistawright: sudo?14:08
Bernzelanyone know how to solve my issue?14:08
zykotick9Randomness: i think ubuntu disables all hibernation (by default) but you can enable it, if you hardware supports it...14:08
jairhello all, do we know if there is a solution for the google repo showing: W: http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release.gpg: Signature by key 4CCA1EAF950CEE4AB83976DCA040830F7FAC5991 u14:09
Randomnesszykotick9: so if i don't ever manually hibernate, i will be fine with no swap partition? any other con to not having swap partition?14:09
Hesulanmistawright: there are lots of /tmp cleaner daemons out there... 'tmpreaper' is a common one from what I've heard... they're designed to work on running servers without a reboot14:09
mistawrightRandomness, this is with me as root14:09
justxuxBernzel, What was installed previous on your Hard-Drive?14:10
Hesulanmistawright: too early in the morning, just now noticed the part about not being able to ls or delete by date... if that means what I think you mean, then idk, sorry14:10
zykotick9Randomness: ahh, i'm not suggesting that really.  i was just noting swap was required for hibernation <- that's my _only_ point.  personally, i don't expect my SSD drives to last for ever, and use swap on them... thus far, no failures (after several years) but YMMV.14:10
Bernzeljustxux, I have ubuntu 14.04 installed now14:10
Harisok, coming back in a bit14:11
Bernzeljustxux, what I had before this was win 714:11
justxuxBernzel, So now you have only Ubuntu partition? Right?14:11
Bernzeljustxux, I would guess so yes. I'm sure I formated the SSD when installing Ubuntu14:12
Randomnesszykotick9: alright, yeah, a drew a hasty conclusion there. as you mentioned you use swap partition on laptops with ssd, how much ram do you have on that/those laptops? how much swap space do you use per ram, ram*2? what have you set swapiness too? (promise i will stop nagging soon. ^^)14:13
Randomness*a = I14:13
justxuxBernzel, If you want to install Windows 7 only you need, copy your important data to external sources,then install Windows 7. And than format your drives as NTFS.14:13
Bernzeljustxux, I have copied all data I want to my other internal drive, so that one I won't touch with any formatting. But the thing is I couldn't format the SSD when I had booted from the Windows USB. So I need to do something with the drive before14:15
zykotick9Randomness: on the system i'm typing on right now, i've not 8GB RAM and a 4GB swap (and hibernation hasn't failed yet!) <- only cause i upgraded from 4GB->8GB RAM after install14:15
justxuxBernzel, Or you can create an NTFS partition from you Ubuntu 14.04,than copy your data there. After that you will use it as Disk :D ,, or something like that. Than install Windows 7 on other partition that you will create.14:15
zykotick9Randomness: ramx2 is a bit overkill these days (but i guess it depends on what you are doin').  typically i use RAM+'a little' as my swap size.14:16
Bernzeljustxux, but the partitions I would need to format isn't available to format from the windows installation USB. So do I use GParted to format my drive?14:17
=== davidcalle is now known as davidcalle_x86_6
=== davidcalle_x86_6 is now known as davidcalle
justxuxBernzel, You can use Gparted but from USB Live Image.14:18

Bernzeljustxux, I have no CD's , is it possible through usb?14:19
justxuxYes14:19
justxuxBernzel, Yes it is.14:20
Randomnesszykotick9: alright. thank you very much. i'm stuck at 4gb ram for now, but i got a spare slot, so will eventually get myself some more ram as well. did hibernation fail before you upgraded to 8gb, or was just more swap used? i won't be using the laptop intensively, so i guess ill be fine with swap=0.5*ram as well. i just read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq, and it suggest using min 1*ram to max 2*ram, but probabl14:20
Randomness(hopefully the last question i direct at you.)14:20

justxuxBernzel, Glad to help14:21
=== ozgun is now known as ozzo
zykotick9Randomness: as a "general rule" for hibernation, swap sould be at least the same size as physical ram... BUT if you are using less than all the ram, you can get away with less swap than physical ram, but if i did something very ram intesive - then tried to hibernate, it would fail.  best of luck.14:24

Pinkamena_D?14:42
justxuxBernzel, If you dont know for sure than check couple of times before committing changes. If you have 2 drives than 1 should be labeled as "sda" other as "adb" or something like that,just pick the right drive to commit changes on and everything will be okay14:42

popeyi did see the link, but what's your specific question15:07
LTCDJordan_U popey In case they get access to server when it's still on encryption won't help. So how can I force server to ALWAYS use secure delete (shred) not rm?15:07

R13osejustxux: I did try that tutorial15:09
justxuxR13ose, I'm trying now15:10
LTCDpopey You misunderstood the question. I know what shred is, and I know how to shred a while HDD. What I am asking is how whenever someone uses the command rm (or other unsecure delete commands) that instead it gets replaced with shred. Perhaps I could edit bash_profile or something? No idea not a Linux guru yet.15:10
popeyLTCD: no, I fully understood the question15:10
popeyLTCD: it's not an easy one to do, not everything uses "rm"15:10
R13osejustxux: if this works on your end, would you be able to fully record the audio and upload this somewhere for me to download?15:10
popeyLTCD: most will use a system call for deleting/unlinking files15:10
popeyLTCD: this seems overkill given an encrypted drive15:10
tgm4883LTCD: yea that seems like overkill. If they gain access to your running box, it's game over anyway15:13

ducassekostas_: video is normally decoded by the x server/gpu.15:38
kostas_ducasse: so everything else is done server side! thank you for clearing this up for me. so I'm good with my setup for home use?! gaming is done on an XBOX360 and amiga :-P so no games gaming on my network15:40
niklasnice15:40
ducassekostas_: i'm guessing it should work fine, as long as the client gpu can handle video decoding.15:41

Randomnessjust out of curiousity is everything on "ubuntu-16.04-desktop-amd64" open source? i guess everything except for the third party items (mp3, etc) is.15:58
Cyber_AkumaAre they in the repos? What are they cled?15:58
Cyber_Akumacalled*15:58
LovkeshI want to install Ubuntu 16.04 but getting isolinux.bin missing or corrupt..can anyone help15:58
k1l_Randomness: and the various drivers.15:58
k1l_Lovkesh: how did you make that ubuntu usb?15:59
tgm4883Cyber_Akuma: you could run the phoronix test suite from the graphics PPA  https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa16:00
Randomnessk1l_: yeah, and the drivers. alright.16:00
LovkeshI have tried all ways Linux live USB creater, Rufus, dd command, gnome disk utility16:01
niklasHow about Universal USB Installer or Yumi?16:01
LovkeshI am getting different errors with all16:01
Cyber_Akumai used universal so i could have a persistant area16:02
Randomnessk1l_: does ubuntu install any closed source drivers during install, or is just after ubuntu is installed that you can install closed source drivers? so if you install ubuntu without the third party (mp3 etc) the complete system is open source?16:02
LovkeshFailed to load ldlinux.c3216:02
moriazLovkesh: you could just download linux + initrd.gz and boot them directly from your grub16:02
k1l_Lovkesh: what iso is that at all? which OS do you use to make that usb? did you check the md5sum?16:02
Randomnessand dont install closed server drivers afterwards.16:02
AtuMwould someone please paste (privatelly) the contents of /usr/share/sessions/ubuntu.desktop file ?16:02
AtuMfor 16.0416:02
Cyber_Akumatgm4883, I dont understand how to use this16:02
LovkeshI have windows as well xubuntu on a 32 bit pc16:03
k1l_Randomness: iirc yes. the live iso includes some drivers to get a working system but most of the drivers need to be installed after the install.16:03
tgm4883Cyber_Akuma: did you go to that link? It shows how to run the test suite16:03
Mordoc_MysteryLovkesh, maybe asked before but is this with the same USB key or different ones?16:03
Randomnessk1l_: thanks!16:03
LovkeshBut i want to create for 64 bit dos laptop16:03
moriazLovkesh: if you already have a working system then you should look into netbooting to install a new linux, because that way you won't have to deal with any iso images or CD's or USB's16:03
k1l_Lovkesh: a siple "dd" command should work best to make sure its a 1 to 1 copy16:03
niklasLovkesh try to redownload the iso16:04
niklasOr just another programs, commands16:04
LovkeshIt is giving isolinux.bin corrupt or missing16:04

Cyber_Akumalet me read it agaim16:04
SebthreeBQM10HDhi16:04

Cyber_AkumaNot even with a persistant file?16:12
tgm4883Cyber_Akuma: maybe16:13
tgm4883Cyber_Akuma: AFAIK, it's a completely unsupported scenario. It's worth a shot, but if it doesn't work you'd be pretty much on your own16:14

ducassesteven: just use the fixed paths that exists, instead of hacking together something different.16:21
Cyber_Akumaniklas, any suggestions?16:22
Cyber_AkumaAndroUser, by clean, do you mean just format, or actually wipe data so its unrecoverable?16:22
AndroUsertgm4883 yes. I tried booting from my windows usb but the drive was in the wrong format or something, so I couldn't format the drive, hence not install windows16:22

tgm4883AndroUser: yes, gparted is an installed application16:26

Cyber_Akumai know16:29
FuchsCyber_Akuma: see if there is a package available instead. Otherwise: there is a README or INSTALL along, usually you compile it, with make or cmake doing most of the ugly things for you, but that will bypass your package management, which is bad16:29

Cyber_Akumasdb2 looks like it16:36
Samy__naac: is it an environment variable?16:36
naccSamy__: um, so your cache file says "CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH:UNINITIALIZED=/home/divyam/Qt5.6.0/5.6/gcc_64" but you're passing "CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/home/user/Qt5.6.0/5.6/gcc_64/lib/cmake/" ?16:36
naccSamy__: for one thing, a PREFIX_PATH generally would not go down that far into the directory structure16:37
naccSamy__: and for another do you actually have a "user" user?16:37
Cyber_Akumacan you delete an exended partiton without deleting the logical partitions in it first?16:37
Samy__nacc: i have tried multiple ranging from /gcc_64 to gcc_64/lib to the above provided nothing worked16:37

SebthreeBQM10HDmore control etc18:21

=== fox9hound is now known as alejogomez
maxb /home as a separate partition is a tradeoff. It's really helpful if you want to re-install the OS whilst preserving your user data, BUT it means you need to commit to a division of space between /home and the rest up front18:25
RandomnessMonkeyDust: yeah, true. but ill probably make a backup of everything in /home on some external hdd anyways, but i guess having it as a separate partiton will go faster. i dont intend to test a lot of distros or upgrade ubuntu frequently. ill probably just jump from lts to lts.18:25
RandomnessSebthreeBQM10HD: yeah, won't skip distros often though.18:25
MonkeyDustRandomness  yes, i have both /home and a backup18:25
RandomnessBluesKaj: alright.18:25

user2635tgm4883, thank you18:41
LovkeshI face same problem while using kali but on windows videos play good with 2-3% cpu usage18:42
tgm4883user2635: hmm, ok. You went through that whole guide?18:43
MonkeyDustLovkesh  what's the output of   cat /etc/issue18:43
user2635tgm4883, i actually skipped step 318:44
user2635tgm4883, because i wanted to keep unity in case (which I did end up going back to)18:44
k1l_Lovkesh: for issues with kali better ask the kali support since its not even based on ubuntu18:44
LovkeshKali GNU/Linux 2.0 \n \l18:44
user2635tgm4883, let me know when you don't need the pic and i'll delete it18:45
tgm4883user2635: ok, so just to be clear. You are seeing duplicate items after following a guide to switch to Xubuntu from Ubuntu and skipping the step explicitly designed to remove the duplicate items. I'm not sure I'm following what your question is18:45
LovkeshO sorry i was using kali18:45
OerHeksadding a desktop is usually no problem, removing one can give vary results: clean with autoclean, and run bleachbit for all bits and pieces18:46
syeekicknacc, i can't do it im still scared18:47
user2635tgm4883, I don't understand why there are duplicates in the first place18:47
tgm4883user2635: wait, is that the "open with" dialog?18:47
user2635tgm4883, plus, i'm new to linux18:47
user2635tgm4883, yes open with18:47
tgm4883hmm, I think that's a bug18:47
user2635tgm4883, i assume linux is clever enough not to have duplicates18:47
user2635tgm4883, ah ok18:48
naccsyeekick: scared of what? what are you talking about18:48
OerHekscache can have duplicates18:48
kovacsone question guys is it difficult to switch from unity to gnome on las ubuntu version?18:48
tgm4883OerHeks: IMO, the "open with" dialog probably shouldn't list "gedit" 3 times18:48
MonkeyDustkovacs  unity is a compiz layer for gnome ... i guess you mean gnome-shell ... install it, logout, switch, logon18:49

yosefhI keep asking for help but nobody has been able to solve it yet18:55
MonkeyDustkovacs  it can be confusing for a beginner, i agree18:56
tgm4883user2635: good find, I'd still file a bug. Probably shouldn't be happening and shouldn't need manual cleanup18:56
yosefhbasically I run iotop and it appears that jbd2 is taking up 99% io periodically18:56
yosefhI cant discover why18:57
yosefhbut the result is my computer completely freezes every 5 minutes for about 1 -2 minutes18:57
MonkeyDustkovacs  keep it in the channel18:57
yosefhsometimes I get 10 minutes of work in before it freezes though18:57
yosefhTheres no point reinstalling because Its a new install18:57
yosefhSo all i can do is work like this until somebody helps me solve it18:58
user2635tgm4883, ok i'll try18:58
tgm4883yosefh: ok, a few things that might help you get support. 1) Don't use enter as punctuation. You can state your issue in one or two posts rather than 10 that you just made. 2) State what you've tried already 3) State what hardware you have (since full system lockups are rare, this might be a hardware issue. Especially on a fresh install)19:00

Gallomimiacause that's suspicious... says its open source and cross platform19:34
reisiouser2635: does it not have its own shortcut manager in its own prefs?19:34
user2635Gallomimia, like you said it depends on the DE19:34
tgm4883reisio: actually, I bet that key combo just brings up keypass rather than unlocks it19:34
user2635tgm4883, I think you're right19:34
Gallomimiawell, it's not a feature of the DE, it's a feature of that program19:34

reisiowhich probably also means they're not great passwords (entropy-ly speaking)19:36

Ben64user2635: extremely relevant19:38

Randomnessnot that it matters but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Ubuntu.27s_official_recommendation says "Ubuntu recommends Pendrivelinux 2016-04-11", but if you click the link it recommends Rufus.19:44
tgm4883Ben64: I mean, it could just be the input field, but that seems easier to fix19:45
k1l_well, the longest passwords are useless if the are written on note-its or circumvented because they are hard to remember. that is why we have security breaches all the time.19:45
user2635how about backing up? have you guys used the default deja dup on ubuntu to backup before? tgm4883 reisio Ben6419:45
yosefhtgm4883, that would make sense, as a hash is a fixed length19:45
Ben64user2635: i haven't19:45
tgm4883user2635:  nope19:46
tgm4883k1l_: true, which is why you use a password manager19:46
k1l_yep19:46
yosefhthough to be fair, a password length limit could be for practical reasons or to prevent abuse by sending huge strings19:48
user2635What do you guys use to backup your system? (hopefully you do backup!)19:48
pauljwuser2635, i use deja-dup and it works just fine.19:49
k1l_user2635: rsync selected folders to a external hdd in a cronjob. used dejadub and that worked too.19:49
user2635pauljw, good to know! i'm doing my first back19:49

tgm4883rsync to 3.5" floppies19:50
yosefhlel19:50
reisiouser2635: I use rsync or rdiff-backup depending on the situation19:51
reisiouser2635: there are a number of alternatives to rdiff-backup, too; bup, obnam, some others19:52

malwar3hun73ri have 3 tasks that i want to run when ubuntu starts and i'm using upstart to control this.  The jobs need to be executed in a specific order.

Any ideas what's going on?20:25

gamelasterHello, I'm trying to install any Ubuntu distro, but anyway, I still fail on this error: http://imgur.com/yTjHPFR . Before I has got installed an Xubuntu, Lubuntu and its working (still same configuration) and its works. But now no. Installation: Along side with Windows 10 (UEFI). Install disk is MSDOS(NO GPT). / EXT4 and SWAP, boot loader into that disk. I tried to change the disk, but not helped. Any ideas?21:50
reisiogamelaster: so... the current problem manifests how?21:51
Fleuvhello, does the latest ubuntu server support nginx and php7.0-fpm to run with sockets?21:52
Mordoc_Mysterygamelaster, Interesting, could it be secure boot as the culprit everyone?21:52
reisioFleuv: as opposed to?21:53
KenrinxYes you need to make the image uefi21:53
gamelasterreisio: in image you can see, its still returning this grub error. I tried Lubuntu, Xubuntu etc. Mordoc_Mystery: Well, I have secure boot enabled, but alot of times I installed GRUB successfuly with Secure Boot, not any problems before21:53
gamelasterI tried the "Repair-Boot" tool a few times, but anytime no help.21:53
Fleuvreisio, well on my machine running this set of software php pages are served empty.21:54
reisioFleuv: empty?21:54
yosefhWhy are kworker and jbd2 constantly spiking?21:55
Fleuvreisio, yes nothing in the source. nothing in the logs. configuration seems right.. where shall i start?21:55
gamelasterI tried to search on google about this error, but nothing not helps...21:55
yosefhDoes anyone know why the io of kworker and jbd2 are constantly spiking to 99.99% usage21:56
reisioFleuv: you should see something even if PHP isn't running properly21:56

yosefhOerHeks, my memory usage never goes back 10% and my system works perfectly normal usually. It just suddenl spikes. Are you saying that memory corruptions is causing problems only with io ?22:08
reisiotekeous: oh okay22:08
yosefhpast 10%22:08
tekeousBetween clicking Suspend, and waking it, obviously I've walked away for a bit22:09

Kenrinx"sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vala-team" should work with it l0g4nad4ms22:16
L0g4nAd4msKenrinx: It always says me that "gtk.h" is not found22:16
prelude2004cnot a the moment.. at one point i had module "glx" but still didn't work22:17
L0g4nAd4mswell, i think there is some gtk package missing, since i realized this does not seems to be a vala error22:17
prelude2004cbut i haven't seen it yet since the new version was installed22:17
Mordoc_MysteryL0g4nAd4ms, the PPA has the best chance. Otherwise I'd stalk the author out on their github page: https://github.com/satya164/elegance-colors22:17

yosefhk1l_, I  often run without it plugged in. But I've never done a real test. Do you think that a audio device could cause io problems periodically22:27
xCykrixim just plugging in a usb with a HD connection22:27
reisioxCykrix: it's the answer to my question I want you to type22:27
k1l_yosefh: i just found some experiences with same issue who report they were caused by there usb devices. a test should do no harm.22:27
reisioxCykrix: you can mount it read only, as it suggests, or try ntfsfix, or fix it from Windows22:28
k1l_xCykrix: its the windows "feature" to not put its hdds into real shutdown but in hibernation to simulate a faster reboot time.22:28
L0g4nAd4msreisio: yeah it is not in the sources ^^22:28
Kenrinxlibgtk-3-dev isn't there ?22:29
yosefhk1l_, yeah, you never know22:29
k1l_xCykrix: in the long run you want to turn off that "feature" in windows to be able to use the hdds and not loos e any data22:29

hazrpgI don't know if it'll help, but I dual-boot two copies of Ubuntu (one mainly for testing the latest ubuntu - but they're both on 16.04 currently) - one works fine and the other doesn't (i.e. blank screen) - is there any way I can figure out what config needs changing? I diff'ed xorg.conf and they are the same, but possibly there are other files I can check against?22:37
yellowman243Is this an error?22:37

frostythesnowmankeh: could i manually fix the postgresql init script? everything was working until i ran apt-get upgrade.  i wonder if there's a way to just reverse my upgrade?22:42
naccfrostythesnowman: you could try backing to the version just prior `apt-get install postgres-pkgname=version`; `apt-cache policy <pkgname>` may tell you what version strings are available22:43
kehAnother option could be to disable the postgre init script and reboot? Then it shouldn't be started and any files in /var shouldn't appear which would confuse a reinstalled postgresql.22:43

kenrinWhere you need to gksu to launch it22:59
hazrpgkeh: Tried diffing, all the important files seem to be identical, the broken one just has extra back xorg.conf files (e.g. xorg.conf.xxxxxxxx - where x is a bunch of numbers) - also /etc/X11/Xsession.d/65snappy is different, but the diff shows that the broken install one has a patch applied to fix a bug (the broken ubuntu has been fully patched, but has been broken from day one since upgrading from 14.04)22:59
