hammer25in general. its barely functional, like i'm trying to remove stuff, and it doesnt seem to work00:06

bradaduke:hammer25 ubuntu is one of the most stable out here (and good for beginners). it's debian-based. and in my experience most distro's i prefer are all ubuntu or debian based! but Ubuntu which comes with (Unity) is not the most beautiful enviroment/desktop out there!00:16
nooobiei just installed ubuntu and wanted to know if ubuntu is secure out of the box if i want to connect to my local library's wifi?00:16
nooobiefirewall needed, file sharing to be disabled etc00:16
bradadukeyou want secure?  try KALI linux00:17
BlenderProI connected to ftp server on windows from ubuntu using the command line ftp command I did succesfuly logged in but I'm stuck, can't upload full directories can someone help me00:17
hammer25bradaduke: I actually kind of like the whole purple theme, but a lot of the icons kinda suck00:17
ArcaireKali is not a derivative of Ubuntu that would be considered "secure".00:17
pvsharovbradaduke: OpenBSD :))))00:17
ArcaireIt's not "secure", it's for information security hobbyists and professionals.00:17
nooobiethat's a pentest distro, not for everyday use00:18
bradadukehammer25: but do you want a beautiful desktop? or do you want to get to know linux? cause first i only cared about the desktopenvirment but now i prefer the terminal00:20
OerHekson windows you would search for a better icontheme..00:21
sawdustquestion can it combined 2 wifi signals from phones with a raspberry pi into one wifi00:23

hammer25cool, i'm a 25N00:26
bradadukei saw a review of QUBES linux! i think you can call that SECURE00:26
ArcaireNope.00:26
sawdustthe plan is is un limited00:26
ArcaireXen has had some pretty big security vulnerabilities in recent times including guest breakouts.00:26
sawdustjust slow00:26
sawdustneed help00:26
nooobiekenrin: think so but i don't need that level of protection, i just want to make sure my xenial installation is by default secure enough to be able to connect to the library's wifi, so it can't get compromised by a scumbag on the same network with malicious intent00:26

reisioi/o spike, client got confused00:29
=== m1dnight1 is now known as m1dnight_
uRocksawdust, most of them will be, as it is something usually done on a server. Once the interfaces are set with IPs, then you would have to configure IPTables to do the load balancing. That's what I am seeing at a glance.00:32
sawdustis there software to help with that00:33
sawdusti'm more of a arduino guy00:33
uRockfrom what I am seeing it will all be CLI, There may be something in Synaptic00:33

nacc!latest | Guest7108600:59
ubottuGuest71086: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.00:59
Guest71086pvsharov: so there isn't anyway i can install the extracted firefox app ?00:59
naccGuest71086: this is a support channel for ubuntu00:59
naccGuest71086: i'm sure there is a way, but the appropriate place for that question would a firefox channel, as the firefox supported here is the one shipped by ubuntu01:00

sigridNo01:20
sigridDon't know what dd is.01:20
k00l3th4nsigrid: Are you using Linux to make a bootable drive?01:21
Guest71086I will switch the ram for 2GB and see what happens01:21
Guest71086would have been great if the SSD was supported01:22
sigridI'm not sure. Right now I have Kubuntu installed on my HD, I want to put another distribution on my usb to boot into if that makes scene?01:22
k00l3th4nsigrid: Okay, no worries. I will walk you throught the process. Ready?01:23
Bashing-omGuest71086: Well, the SSD does not show up . Does Bios see the SSD ?01:23
sigridYeah01:23
Guest71086it sees the SSD with its name but it does not think it is an ssd01:24
Guest71086in the bios section there is HDD and SSD01:24
Guest71086my SSD falls into the HDD section01:25
k00l3th4nsigrid: First, insert the USB and open up terminal. Then, type df -h and identify the drive. Should be somehting like /dev/sdb1 or something like that.01:25
Guest71086so the bios thinks its an HHD01:25
Guest71086while there is nothing at the SSD section01:25
Guest71086well it's a 9 years old netbook anyways01:26
k00l3th4nsigrid: Once you identify the path to the drive you can you the package dd to write an iso to the flashdrive. Let me know when you have the drive path.01:26

rokoktechmidas I am on 16.04 (xenial?)04:34
wiconyeah04:34
wiconapt-get it04:34
ktechmidasroko: Hm, you could go get the deb package04:35
ktechmidasfrom the repo04:35
ktechmidasand try it04:35
Cyber_AkumaHmm...... I just installed Photonix Test Suite from the demos.... and when I run it it tells me that it's massively outdated04:36
Cyber_Akumafrom the repos*04:36
ktechmidasroko, damn in xenial it's just called libavcodec-extra04:38
ktechmidasand I'm not sure of the version04:38
rokoktechmidas synaptic shows version 56 for that04:38

ktechmidasroko, try this: http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/liba/libav/libavcodec-extra-54_9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_amd64.deb04:42
ktechmidasit's the deb, just run dpkg -i... see if it works04:42
backbox_what?04:42
Cyber_AkumaWhere is Ubuntu downloading these files in the Downloads folder to if I am running it off a liveusb with a persistant file? On that file? Or on the empty space of the USB drive itself?04:43
rokowicon dude i always used it in wondows for HQ streams...I thought it would be the same in ubuntu. Been solveing this issue for 2 hours now04:43
wiconRAM, Cyber_Akuma04:43
Cyber_AkumaI can't be ram, becaue they are still there after a reboot04:43
ktechmidasit may fail the first time and you'll need to run "apt-get install -f" then try dpkg -i again04:43
Cyber_AkumaIt*04:43
ktechmidasit's not officially supported - but should work04:43
wiconroko: so install the older .deb manually04:43
OerHeksperhaps in the ~/Downloads folder?04:44
wiconCyber_Akuma: you're probably not actually reboots04:44
wiconit's impossible for them to be there after a reboot without a file system04:44
rokowicon they dont ahve any debs...atleast I couldnt find any04:44
wiconliterally impossible04:44
Cyber_AkumaThey are in that folder, I meant where is that folder being saved to, in the file it mounts for persistant storage or the usb drive itself?04:44
Cyber_AkumaAgain04:44
ktechmidasroko: see above04:44
Cyber_AkumaI set it to have persistant storage04:44
wiconCyber_Akuma: you're probably hibernating rather than rebooting thus they remain in RAM04:44
ktechmidasI've sent you the link to the deb04:44
Cyber_AkumaI physically turned this computer OFF04:44
wiconlol04:44
xanguawicon: you forgot to read the persistent part04:44
Cyber_AkumaI rebooted into a WinPE based backup app!04:45
Cyber_AkumaI 100% assure you it was not hibernated04:45

wiconCyber_Akuma: so what do you suspect? magic?04:46
wiconthey're either on your HDD or in RAM04:46
Cyber_Akuma.....04:46
wiconas i said, the only plausible explanation is that you're not actually rebooting04:46
wiconand just belive you are04:46
Cyber_AkumaHow many times do I have to tell you that I setup my LiveUSB with a persistant storage?04:47
OerHeksso you understand the persistent part(ition) of the usb install ?04:47
Cyber_AkumaI REBOOTED INTO A DIFFERENT OS!04:47
Cyber_AkumaOerHeks, I am not clear if it only stores packages and other settings in there, or even downloaded files04:47
Cyber_AkumaOr if it stores the files on the usb drive itself04:47
Cyber_AkumaAs in, not in the persistant file but just on the root of the usb drive04:48
OerHekssudo fdisk -l # this shows the partitions on your live iso and might give you a clue04:48

computerxpl0iter: oh ok so upgreade will not update my currently installed programs?07:47
sevenup__update parameter only update your database, all about what the package should be downloaded, their description and so07:47
sevenup__*all about where a package ...07:47
MacroMancomputer, update just refreshes the list of available packages. upgrade will actually upgrade your programs07:47
computersevenup__: so if it did not make sudo apt-get update and requested to install a package, will it install the old version?07:48
MacroManand use dist-upgrade if there is a new kernal available07:48
computerMacroMan: hmmm ok, so i should sually run an update and an upgrade together?07:49
sevenup__computer, I'm not sure, I think not07:49
MacroMancomputer, No. If you update first, then it will install the latest version avilable in the repository.07:49
sevenup__I think you will get an error if the package has changed their location07:49

vltrailr_: By server you mean a machine? Hardware?09:50
vlt!openvpn | Felishia09:50
ubottuFelishia: OpenVPN is a vpn technology in Ubuntu, sudo apt-get install openvpn and then see http://openvpn.net/ and see the documentation "HOWTO" noting you have already installed it. ;-) It rocks!09:50

BuenGeniogood day everyone09:51
BuenGenioI'm running Xenial on a 2015 MPB (12,1) - everything is perfect, apart from SD card disappearing after resume from sleep09:51

railr_vlt: Hi vlt, do you require the hardware specifications for both the servers?09:52
BuenGenioother times, like now, it's still not mounted09:52
vltFelishia: Maybe the network manager app supports connecting to different VPN implementations as client. But I don’t know anything about the GUI stuff and VPNs.09:52

mtua kernel param i need (acpi_osi=Linux) only works when manually editing the grub line on every boot. how to make it stick?09:54
strehiFelishia: Tell us what exactly you want to do.09:55
FelishiaI just want to be a client of a vpn09:55
k1l_Felishia: before ranting in here (again). you are aware that there are different vpn protocols?09:55
Felishiayes09:55
Felishiaso which ones allow openvpn then?09:55
k1l_Felishia: make sure the proper package for your protocol is installed then09:56
FelishiaI only see the ips and password of the vpn services09:56
strehiFelishia: Do you have password and certificate?09:56
railr_vlt: the old server is running 10.04. I basically want transfer configuration files(cups, samba etc) and also user data and permissions if that makes any sense?09:56
strehiFelishia: ip and password is not enough though. Usually there is a PCF file in which everything is defined (PROTOCOL,IP,GROUP PASSWORD, ETC...)09:57
strehiFelishia: You need to find out which protocol provider is using09:58
abdul_Hiya09:58

strehiFelishia: OpenVPN is extremly powerful tool09:59

skakelaarHello all. I have tried to mount an image with the terminal, fuseiso and file mounter in ubuntustudio16.04. Terminal and fuseiso do mount to a directory, without content. File mounter opened a directory with content which is not executable(read, write, copy)12:23
vltxheart: What errors?12:24
skakelaarI then moved the iso per flash drive to a machine running Lubuntu16.04. opened it with file mounter and succesfully copied the image's content.12:25
skakelaarI do not have the luxury of having 2 machines at all times nor do i want my OS to be fauulty in any way12:26
skakelaarAny advice or help would be highly appreciated12:26

vltrailr_: If you want to clone everything, just use ddrescue. If you also want to upgrade to a more recent Ubuntu version you could either install the new system and then rsync the user homes or clone the old system, then try to gradually run the updates fro LTS to LTS (which sometimes works suprisingly).12:33

sendakHow can I discover which ubuntu version is installed at a partition?  I cannot run any programs in the partition.  I lost GRUB on the machine, and I can't recover it with other versions' bootable disks.  In /etc/os-release I found it's 14.04.4, but I don't know whether it's 32 or 64 bit.  The machine /is/ 64 bit capable.  (I need to discover the exact version, download an ISO image of the exact version and then book12:35
sendak with it.)12:35
sendakI likely need the same kernel as well --- in order to run programs in the new system.  If I get the same ubuntu version, I'll probably get the same kernel as well.12:37
welsh1lad@sendak just use a live disto chrrot onto each partition and run cat /etc/lsb_release12:37

DragnadhI looked at that but when i tried running the command it said directory not found15:00
nicomachusSteam's using a C++ library that's incompatible with the radeonsi_dri.so driver, apparently15:01
Cyber_AkumaHow would I check which display driver I am using?15:01
Dragnadhhow do I fix it15:01
MinimaxxGo to settings, additional drivers15:02
nicomachusDragnadh: you'll have to verify the paths on your own system by poking around in ~/.local/share/Steam15:02
OerHeksCyber_Akuma, you asked this not that long ago >>> lshw -c video should give a line like "configuration: driver= .."15:02
Cyber_AkumaI know, I forgot, thanks15:02
ozbrkGoole fiber you are lucky15:02
ozbrkIn Turkey we hav e TTNET Fiber which we have no idea if it is fast or not15:03
Cyber_AkumaFiber period, you are lucky15:03

ubottuMinimaxx: Recognized Ubuntu flavors build on Ubuntu and provide a different user experience out of the box. They are supported both in #ubuntu and in their flavor channel. The current list is: !Edubuntu, !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, Ubuntu !Kylin, !Lubuntu, !Mythbuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, !Xubuntu, and Ubuntu !MATE15:04
ozbrkCyber_Akuma, what do you have then15:04
Cyber_AkumaHmm....... seems stuck on the neovio or whatever driver, even though it thinks it's using the Nvidia one. Let me try rebooting, I guess restarting my session wasn't enough15:04
Dragnadhnicomachus How do I there, you see I am quite the noob15:04
Cyber_Akumaozbrk, cable15:04
MinimaxxGreat, thanks !15:04
ozbrkCyber_Akuma, cable ? You mean ADSL ?15:05
SchrodingersScatChetManly: be-bop-skiddly-do15:05
Cyber_AkumaYep, stuck on nouveau15:06
MinimaxxI have a problem, i am currently running Xubuntu 14.04 LTS on an old computer. When i left the computer unused for too long (10 minutes i guess), my screen turns off and my session is locked. Then, i am totally unable to reactivate my computer. I think it's a problem with the screensaver but I don't know how to fix it.15:07
Cyber_AkumaDo you still want the screen blank out feature?15:08
Minimaxxnot necessarily15:08
Cyber_AkumaYou can just disable that under "Brightness & Lock"15:09
Cyber_AkumaHmm...... Synaptic seems to get stuck at "Applying Changes" when I choose the Nvidia driver15:09
MinimaxxSo i just need to turn off "Blank screen after..." ?15:10
Cyber_Akumayes15:10
camroncadeany idea why in 16.04 if I start unity myself from the command line the top toolbar doesn't have the clock or network connection menu?15:10
Cyber_AkumaJust set it to never15:10
MinimaxxOkay, thanks a lot ;-)15:10
Cyber_AkumaI know there are multiple things that can affect it, but I think by default that is the only one set on a new install15:10
Cyber_AkumaI am still new to ubuntu15:10
ZighuatlHi, people15:13
Zighuatlhas anyone been able to run Ubuntu with Unity in a laptop with an ATI 2400 for more than half and hour?15:13
Zighuatlit always crashes, but not with Ubuntu Mate or Xubuntu15:14
Cyber_AkumaHmm, how else can I install drivers? For some reason Synaptic isn't working15:14
MinimaxxNot with an ATI chip in my case but with a weird AMD graphics chip, sorry15:14
Cyber_AkumaIs there any way I can see the details or someting of the drivers it's installing?15:14
OerHeksZighuatl, maybe unity is too heavy for that old ati x2400, that relies on the opendriver15:15
cscfCyber_Akuma, menu, search "drivers"15:15
cscfAdditional Drivers utility15:15
cscfUnity is too heavy for a lot of things15:15
Cyber_Akumacscf, I am under "Additional Drivers" and choose the Nvidia ones then clicked Apply.... and it just gets stuck at "Applying Changes"15:15

Minimaxxyou probably need to reboot15:19
MinimaxxAnd i think it's better to completly reboot your machine( i know that sometimes that can help with some weird drivers)15:19
Dragnadhyou mean with completely reboot a format?15:20
Minimaxxsuch as Nvidia ones for example15:20
OerHeksCyber_Akuma, normally you don't need to reboot, are you still working on that livee usb + persistence?15:20
Cyber_AkumaI installed it to a usb drive using a VM15:21
Cyber_Akumait's not a live session anymore, but it's still on usb15:21
Cyber_AkumaThe live session actually was working... but I ran out of spac15:21
MinimaxxIt's probably for that reason that Nvidia drivers doesn't work properly15:22
Cyber_Akuma... and the usb drive failed, it was a crappy one anywayt15:22
Cyber_AkumaThey were working on the live session actually..... for some reason I am having trouble installing them on the non-live session15:22
cscfCyber_Akuma, I've had that happen several times with persistent liveUSBs.  They aren't made for many writes15:22
Cyber_AkumaNow that I remember, that usb drive always gave me trouble, I should just toss it so I don't accidently use it again15:23
MinimaxxIt's weird because i have ever installed an Ubuntu system on an external hard disk drive in order to use it to school. I was able to play games and my drivers worked properly...15:23
Cyber_AkumaI wish there was a built-in option to just load the entire OS install to RAM, I mean, it's under 2 gigs right? I have 32 gigs on this thing15:23
MinimaxxNormally you are right, an entire Ubuntu system install takes around two gigs of space. Which version of Ubuntu are you running ?15:24
somsipCyber_Akuma: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM15:24
cscfCyber_Akuma, well, Puppy Linux does that, and probably others.  It's not really a goal of Ubuntu.15:25
Cyber_Akuma16.0415:25
cscfOh cool15:25
Cyber_AkumaI mean like, it could setup a 8 or 16gb ramdisk, and use the rest as normal ram15:25
Cyber_Akuma16gb would be a lot jus for running some tests on this system15:25
Minimaxxseems complicated15:25
Cyber_Akumaas well as a 16gb "drive"15:25
Cyber_AkumaI am just trying to get my windows install working again >.<15:26
Minimaxxkeep in mind that when you turn off your computer, the content of your RAM memory is totally cleaned15:26
Cyber_Akumayes15:27
Minimaxxdid you tried to do dual boot with ubuntu and windows ?15:27
Cyber_AkumaI guess you could boot to usb, install whatever packages, change your settings, etc that you want15:27
cscfWhich is why Puppy regularly flushes to disk.  You'd need something like that, or perhaps a disk home directory15:27
Cyber_Akumathen reboot into tha ramdisk option15:27
somsipCyber_Akuma: you're sort-of off real support and into offtopic wishful thinking now...15:28
Cyber_AkumaMinimaxx, back then I didn't have the space, and I am worried about ubuntu messing with the booting of an already damaged windows install15:28
Cyber_AkumaPlus, my system already takes long enough to boot without adding grub in thre15:29
Cyber_AkumaFinally, seems I am on the nvidia driver now15:30
cscfCyber_Akuma, grub only takes like 1 second.15:32
ipatrolok, I'm trying to install a package that has a *hard* dependency on kdm15:32
ipatrolwhich is not in the present repos for xenial, or its backports15:33
ipatroldoes anyone know where I can find it?15:34
BabuI uninstalled  some software's in ubuntu, when I restart os is not working15:35
OerHeksipatrol, nobody can, unless you give more details15:35
ipatrolOerHeks: it's an old KDE4 package15:35
naccipatrol: that seems like a mistake. kdm came from kde-workspace (I think) which has been replaced by plasma-workspace (source packages)15:35
naccipatrol: the hard dependency means your new package is simply notinstallable15:35
Cyber_AkumaOh right, since I am running off a usb install I should probably disable swap...15:36
OerHeksipatrol, kde4 package on kde5 ..15:36
ipatrolnacc: plasma-workspace doesn't include a "provides" line?15:36
ipatrolOerHeks: no, I need a KDE4 setup15:36
ipatrolright now I have a minimal system15:36
naccipatrol: then you shouldn't have moved to 16.04 :)15:36
naccipatrol: stay on 14.04 if you need KDE4 afaict15:36
ipatrolnacc: ah, so how do I set the PM to an older version?15:36
exussumThere seems to be an issue with mysql-server-5.5 on 14.04.3 on a fresh install you can not install it.15:37
ipatroljust manually edit all the apt source lines?15:37
naccipatrol: PM ?15:37
ipatrolpackage manager15:37
naccipatrol: no, you'd need to reinstall at this point15:37
exussumWhere is the best place to report it ?15:37
naccipatrol: there isn't really a downgrade path15:37
MinimaxxCyber_Akuma, I think you sould't disable swap because if your machine goes out of RAM, it should be more safer either to have a little space for swap in case of...15:38
naccipatrol: and you shouldn't mix releases15:38

ipatrolok, so the KDE dependency on the newer repos is soft, but apparently they never got around to actively supporting KDE5. I can only hope it will still work. I had part of it working earlier on an existing install, before I decided to split them16:01
TanNguyensomeone235_: I think that CPU won't be able to drive the effects usually found in Xubuntu. Can you try turn off some of the effects?16:05
ipatrolas much as the DMs claim to support it, I've never come across a setup where you can have two DEs installed simultaneously and still have it looking, or sometimes even working, right16:05
someone235_TanNguyen: What effects? XFCE should be very lightweight, no?16:07
ipatrolthey often make incompatible changes to the configuration files for X, the diffrerent GUI libraries (often in order to get a "uniform appearance"), the user menus, file associations, and so forth. If supporting sinultaneous DEs is really a priority of Canonical and co, they really need to do a lot more to make it happen16:07

squintyipatrol, #ubuntu-discuss  this channel is for support only16:08
ipatrolsomeone235_: traditionally that might be true, but people have increasingly gone to it not because it's lightweight, but because they're fed up with both GNOME and KDE16:08

neredsenvyWhen I sacle my UI > 1.25 I get white lines at the bottom and right side of the screen about 1-2px wide did not happen on 14.0416:42
neredsenvyIt's a fresh install yet DL speeds are 0.1% of my actual seed16:43
ozbrkyeaaah I saw them too and just ignored16:43
neredsenvyspeed* running apt-get update took like a whole minute16:43
neredsenvySeems pretty nasty thing to ignore16:43
ozbrkwell I don't have this16:43
OerHekswow, whole minute is bad?16:44

neredsenvyI'll try it16:45
ozbrkchange your DNS to Google DNS 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.416:46
neredsenvyAlready have that set on my router16:46
squintyneredsenvy, there is an option to select the best server for your current session16:46
yeatsneredsenvy: more than just internet can affect the speed of apt updates - disk I/O is also a factor16:47

neredsenvyfor best update serve16:48
yeatsneredsenvy: then if you can truly rule out WAN/LAN issues, might be a bad mirror16:48
ozbrkyeats, welll if it is a SSD it eliminates the I/O issue option16:48
yeatsozbrk: yep16:48
yeatsneredsenvy: traceroute to your mirror's host might be illuminating16:49
ozbrkneredsenvy, dude set server to the main it is more then stable and ptades then the others16:49

_44trenti'm trying to reinstall grub through the terminal, but it keeps saying: "Could not find device for /boot. Not found or not a block device"16:57
_44trentThe syntax is right, I put in /dev/sda, not sda1 or anything16:57
_44trentand my system is in legacy BIOS. i suspect it might be trying to install in EFI mode, but that doesn't make sense16:59
_44trentand this version of grub has no --platform= option16:59
_44trentso i can't force the platform...16:59
vfwHas 16.04 switched to systemd?  Or is it still optional?17:00
_44trenti thought ubuntu switched to systemd in 15.0417:00
_44trenthmm, if i can't reinstall grub through the terminal, i guess i could add the boot repair ppa and see if that works17:01
_44trent...17:03
_44trenti just realized why i couldn't reinstall grub17:03
_44trentlegacy mode requires grub-pc-bin17:03
_44trenti feel stupid...17:03
yeatsvfw: it's systemd, yes17:04
_44trentstill no luck17:04
_44trenti don't think the disk is mounted17:04
neredsenvyOk so it seems the UI scaling issue only needed a Reboot (Logout) was not enough as for the internet speed issue17:05
neredsenvyRemoving mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] from nsswitch solved the problem17:06
_44trent...if I chroot into the disk ubuntu is installed on, will grub-install work?17:06
yeats_44trent: yes17:06
_44trentwell, i'll just do that17:06
neredsenvyhalf of it anyway I'm getting 100Mbps tho not enough17:06
vfwOk, I stand corrected, Ubuntu 16.04 has systemd by default.17:07
yeatsneredsenvy: bandwidth on the server side is probably rate-limited too17:07
_44trentchrooting into the folder the disk is mounted in /media will work, right?17:07
neredsenvyYea I'm trying another host right now see if that one was capped17:07
vfw"17:07
user2635If a notification is too long in unity, how can I see the rest? (for example, blablabla ...)17:07
_44trentshould i make sure it's in /bin/bash too?17:07
vfw"systemd is only fully supported in Ubuntu 15.04 and later releases. While systemd is available in prior releases through the Ubuntu repositories"17:07
vfwI've yet to tell any of my users to upgrade to 16.04, (they are all still on 12.04).17:10

user2635I know I can do apt-get update, but is there a way in the terminal to check if there is an update for a specific package?17:16
Paddy_NII installed "ubuntu-desktop" on my Ubuntu MATE installation and I wish to remove some remaining packages left behind even after removing "ubuntu-desktop" which is just stupid. Can anyone tell me the name of the lock screen that Ubuntu uses so I can remove it?17:19
vfwuser2635: upgrade <package-name>17:19
Paddy_NINautilus has to be removed manually too, goodness knows what other nonsense was left behind17:20
OerHeksapt-get upgrade --dry-run or aptitude search '~U' gives a list with upgradable packages17:20
vfwuser2635: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade <package-name>17:20
user2635vfw, I just want to check if there is one17:20
vfwuser2635: policy17:20
user2635ok17:20

dabaRHey. What kinds of things does a server's hostname affect? I'd like to change mine, but I don't wanna mess something up.17:32
squintyneredsenvy, it is and replaced by gnome-software17:32
dabaRI'd like to change it so that the prompt is different. Or does just changing prompt pattern in .bashrc seem like a better idea for that?17:32
squintyneredsenvy, yes buggy   family channel17:32
neredsenvyNow all that remains is waiting for Unity 8 and hope it brings better UI scaling support : )17:34
akikdabaR: the hostname seems to be defined only in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts17:37
akikdabaR: not a wise idea to change it in only bash17:38

Gallomimiabe sure and backup any files you want to keep19:10
bindigenii: how can i find the correct firmware for finland/europe?19:11
kalibajust kidding :D19:11
geniibindi: It must have the part with the card that holds the SIM with phone number, though. You also need to install package gobi-loader to insert the firmware19:11
bindigenii: i didnt quite catch the first part19:12
geniibindi: The firmware will be on the Windows driver disk for it19:12
kalibaIs any german in here?19:12
bindigenii: the module is bought off ebay, although i found a page for it where they show you how to extract them19:12
bindihttp://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Qualcomm_Gobi_200019:12
JoenuhNot German, but close :)19:13
kalibaI like the Linux community.19:13
geniibindi: The Gobi 2000 card requires a telephone SIM card in order to have an IMEI. On some models the SIM goes directly into the Gobi. On other models there is a wire connector fromt he card to a separate SIM holder. You require this part for it to work.19:14
neredsenvyI have app (smartgit) that launches from a .sh can I create a Launcher shortcut to have it autorun ?19:14
neredsenvySo I don't have to do it via terminal19:14

kaliba<neredsenvy> what desktop environment do you use?19:15
neredsenvykaliba: Unity 719:15

kaliba<neredsenvy> http://askubuntu.com/questions/67925/how-to-create-a-desktop-shortcut-in-unity19:16
geniibindi: For a finnish firmware, I am not sure either, sorry.19:19
bindigenii: apparently there's a sim slot in the motherboard19:19
bindiand not in the module directly19:19
geniibindi: Yes, that is what I stated earler about two kinds of those cards. Some have onboard SIM slot, some don't19:20
bindigenii: is the onboard sim slot expected to work with aftermarket installed wwan card?19:20
geniiYes19:20
bindidoes it need extra wiring or does it go through the mobo :P19:21
geniibindi: If you have one which used a slot on motherboard and putting it into a system which does not have that, you will need to manually solder one onto the card19:22
solomon_any one good in using tor?19:22
bindigenii: well the motherboard/laptop has a slot for it19:22
bindiso it should be good to go19:22

bindigenii: okay thanks. my friend will be here shortly with his laptop, we'll try to get it working in the live usb :p19:23
bindior does it need reboots in order to work19:23

Mr|Daveanyone tried 16.04 on older macminis? everything works except wireless. i've tried drivers from broadcom-sta, bcmwl-kernel-source, and firmware-b43-installer, but none of them seem to work (meaning thei interface seems to come up, but scanning produces no results).20:32
Mr|Davei'm guessing a lot has changed in 16.04 also, since a lot of the commands that people suggest running don't exist anymore like nm-tool20:34
geniibindi: Try a reboot, then after see if the command: ifconfig -a   ...shows a wwan device. Without running any other commands related to the gobi_loader. I think it may be doing that part automatically now20:35

Bomber4Chatswhich type of backup should I use if I have a dual-boot computer with Windows 8.1 and Kubuntu and I want to replace Kubuntu with another Ubuntu flavor, and hopefully keep the data I have from my current Kubuntu system?21:12
kshenoyI want Ubuntu to run this command on startup: `setxkbmap -option 'ctrl:nocaps'` How do I get it to do that?21:12
Bomber4ChatsI have sda5 as / and sda7 as /home21:13
Bomber4ChatsI should be able to simply replace sda5 with the new ubuntu flavor installation, and set sda7 as /home, right?21:13
Bomber4Chatsbtw, I realize I have 15Gb of Swap, is that an overkill?21:14
kshenoyBomber4Chats: What? Whoa!21:14
Mordoc_MysteryBomber4Chats, Wow - how much RAM do you have in that thing?21:15

Bomber4ChatsThat'd be nice21:22
kshenoyBomber4Chats: Well, not directly. But the end result is the same21:22
Bomber4Chatsyeah, sure, any details on how to do that?21:22
Bomber4Chatshow to select that?21:22
kshenoyEg. I have Ubuntu 16.04 and Elementary OS 0.3 (I think...)21:22
Bomber4Chatsand you can choose which one to boot to21:23
kshenoyWhen I  installed them, I didn't mount /home as a separate partition so by default it installed /home in the same partition as /21:23
Bomber4Chatsuhhhh21:23
Bomber4ChatsOk...21:23
kshenoyBut then after install, I added my "Data" disk21:23
Bomber4Chatsso did I screw myself over by having sda5 / sda7 /home?21:23
kshenoyand created symlinks for ~/Documents, ~/Videos etc. to point to the Data Disk21:24
kshenoyAnything that I want to be portable, I put it on the Data partition and then just created links21:24
Bomber4Chatshmm21:24
Bomber4Chatswell, I can't make my sda7 protable, can I?21:24
kshenoyI remember trying to do like what you're trying i.e. just have /home as a separate partition and use it interchangeably between different OSes but I remember running into some issues21:25
Bomber4Chatshm21:25
kshenoyHowever, I didn't try too hard tbh21:25

Cyber_AkumaI can't seem to google the packag name either21:38
naccstacks88: not yet available, i don't think, you're referring to kpatch i believe21:38

naccCyber_Akuma: ok, "stuck" would imply "hung" to me, which is not the case, that's why i asked for clarification21:39
naccCyber_Akuma: what is that package?21:39

naccCyber_Akuma: not an ubuntu one, I believe21:39
Cyber_AkumaI think Steam tried to install it when I tried to install Steam21:39
Cyber_AkumaOh wait..... it's part of an attempt to install sound drivers21:40
naccCyber_Akuma: so you put a package on, presumably from a PPA, but it didn't finish (i'm guessing)21:41

Cyber_AkumaYeah, it said "unpacking" and never progressed from there21:41
naccCyber_Akuma: and that package was then deleted from the PPA or wherever you got it from21:41
Cyber_AkumaI still have it in my downloads folder actually21:41
naccCyber_Akuma: so you need to tell apt to uninstall it (purge it, most likely)21:41
Cyber_AkumaTried reinstalling it..... still hands on unpacking21:41
Cyber_Akumahangs*21:41
naccCyber_Akuma: i'm not really willing to figure that out -- my suggestion is remove that if you want  support here, as using said package puts you outside of ubuntu proper21:42
kshenoyBomber4Chats: Why do you need 100G for it?21:43
Cyber_AkumaHow do I do that21:43
Bomber4Chatsassuming I can't provide my current /home for the new ubuntu21:43
kshenoyBomber4Chats: No, I mean the base install only takes 8-10G IIRC. 100G is way too much21:44
bprompthmm21:44
bpromptkshenoy:    mine was around 6gbs IIRC for 16.0421:44
bpromptkshenoy:    put a few apps and stuff, and it's around 8gbs total21:45
naccCyber_Akuma: i'm just guessing, but `apt-get remove --purge linux-image-4.5.0-sbz`21:45
Cyber_AkumaStill complains that it needs to be reinstalled21:45
kshenoybprompt: Right, so 10 or in the worst case 20G should be more than enough. I was curious to see why he wanted to set aside 100G21:46
naccCyber_Akuma: please pastebin output of `apt-get update; apt-get remove --purge linux-image-4.5.0-sbz`21:46
bpromptkshenoy:    10 is unlikely, but possible, if installing a really big bunch of packages, 100Gbs, depends, if he's going to do rom VMing, I see the need, or run a webserver, or do some media editing21:47

naccdrale2k: there is no nginx 1.10.1 publisehd for trusty in the official ubuntu archives21:59
naccdrale2k: in fact, the only place that is currently published is 16.1022:00
drale2knacc: i see 1.10.1 also when i run "apt-cache showpkg nginx"22:00
naccdrale2k: please pastebin as requested and `apt-cache policy nginx`22:00
drale2kand it says "Version: 1.10.1-0+trusty0" for "dpks -s nginx"22:00
drale2kk mom22:01
naccdrale2k: that's from a PPA22:01
drale2koh you are right, it says "ppa.launchpad.net..."22:01
nacc...22:01
drale2ki didn't know lol22:01
naccmaybe drop the attitude, and take the help as its given...22:01
drale2kwhat?22:02
drale2kwhat attitude22:02
nacc"k mom" :-P22:02
drale2kthat's "ok, one moment"22:02
drale2kwhat's wrong with that22:02
naccah, i read it as, "k mom" (stop nagging me)22:02
=== jwheare_local_ is now known as jwheare_local
tewarddrale2k: nowhere in Ubuntu will you find 1.8.x22:02
naccas in mom = mother :)22:02
drale2k^^22:02
naccdrale2k: my apologies :)22:02
tewarddrale2k: 1.8.x is no longer supported by the nginx PPA team, nor NGINX upstream because it was replaced22:02
tewardand is end of life on its own22:02
drale2ki don't need 1.8.1, was jsut an example. I just need to rollback to what it was before22:03
drale2kone or 2 versions erlier22:03
tewarddrale2k: there's no way to know what it was 'before'22:03
naccdrale2k: right but you're using a PPA, meaning ask the PPA maintainer22:03
tewardnacc: *cough* ohai22:03
naccthat might be teward :)22:03
user2635Just finished my DejaDup backup, got some errors. Can someone tell me if they look critical and how I can prevent them in future? http://pastebin.com/JT4dAMFz22:03
naccdrale2k: we dpm22:04
tewarddrale2k: happy to try and help you outside of the channel since PPAs aren't supported here22:04
naccdrale2k: sorry, we don't know what you installed and when22:04
tewarddrale2k: but FYI, I have less attitude tolerance than nacc - give me any and you get slapped ;)22:04
naccteward: it was a misinterpretation on my end :)22:04
tewardnacc: ah ok22:04
drale2kanother chan or priv msg ?22:04
tewarddrale2k: I suggest you'd start by looking in your /var/log/apt/history.log  files22:05
tewardfind where the prior nginx was installed22:05
tewardget the version number22:05
tewardif it's not what's in the Ubuntu repositories (really old version) then it's from the PPA22:05
drale2kteward: it says "nginx-full:amd64 (1.10.0-0+trusty0, 1.10.1-0+trusty0)"22:06
drale2kso it wnet from 1.10.0 to 1.10.1 ?22:06
tewarddrale2k: because of a security update, yes.22:07
tewarddrale2k: functionality between 1.10.0 and 1.10.1 hasn't changed22:07
drale2khm, somehow that broke something on my side with dokku (and spdy)22:07
tewarddrale2k: can't help you here, I'd suggest #nginx for debugging that, but SPDY is also not supported in nginx 1.9.5+, or whenever HTTP/2 was introduced22:08
tewardbecause that replaced spdu22:08
tewardspdy*22:08
drale2kok so i need to go before 1.9.522:08
drale2kbut when i try apt-get install nginx=1.9.3 i get "Version '1.9.3' for 'nginx' was not found"22:08
drale2ki did not do an distupgrade, so a version before 1.9.5 was available before22:09
tewarddrale2k: 1.9.x is also not supported22:16
tewarddrale2k: problem is: there is no PPA version other than the latest stable, or latest mainline22:16
tewarddrale2k: not that i'd advise using, that is22:16
tewarddrale2k: and there's no versions of those in the Ubuntu repositories, especially not for Trusty22:16

BShow are you people22:26
BS?22:26
JhonCHi there!22:28
JhonCis apt the same as aptitude?22:28
\9JhonC: not really, apt is a newer user-friendly front-end to apt22:30
\9aptitude's practically obsolete by now22:30
BSI am from Syria and the system is not being updated its so hard here22:30
JhonCuh... Ok.22:30
Cyber_AkumaHuh, by some miracle me screwing up the Ubuntu kernel several times over with expiremental stuff that wasn't installing right didn't render the OS unbootable.... and the expiremental drivers actually work22:31
SchrodingersScatJhonC: they both use the same package system, so really whichever you prefer, but seems apt is the one being pushed as standard now.22:33
JhonCwhat are the differences between apt and apt-get?22:35
naccJhonC: apt is more interactive oriented, i guess22:35
ozbrkI still don't get it why I can't enable webgl on google chrome I tried everything and nvdia drivers are on 36122:36
naccJhonC: `man apt` and `man apt-get`22:36
kshenoyCan someone tell me how to run a command on startup?22:36
ozbrkI tried to reproduce the crash and it ends with a really long output22:36
JhonCI like your opinions22:38
ozbrkkshenoy, just type to unity "startup"22:39
ozbrkkshenoy, then you'll figure it out22:39
kshenoyozbrk: I put my command in there but it didn't start22:40
ozbrkkshenoy, well don't out it on a command line then just type unity searchbar and you'll see something like startup apps22:41
ozbrkkshenoy, if you find it and type your command maybe your syntax is false check your command if it is requires sudo or something22:41
kshenoyozbrk: That's what I meant. I added my command to startup applications and checked the box next to it22:42
kshenoyozbrk: This is what I have there: `setxkbmap -option 'ctrl:nocaps'`22:42
kshenoyIt doesn't require sudo. If I select and paste it in terminal it works22:42
ozbrkkshenoy, I don't know the command just here to tell you how you can do it.22:43
kshenoyozbrk: Fair enough. Thx for helping out :)22:43
ozbrkkshenoy, It seems it is a keyboard configuration command why do you need it22:44
kshenoyozbrk: It maps Caps Lock to Control i.e. I can use the CapsLock as an additional Control22:45
niranjanHi there, on Ubuntu 12.04 desktop, got the update notification and started updating. It's more than three hours and update is still not done. I noticed process dpkg-preconfigu is eating 50% of cpu. Can I kill that process as update seems to have crashed for some reason22:56
W00dP3ck3ryes22:57
ozbrkniranjan, why are you using 12.0422:59
OerHeks12.04 is still supported23:00
niranjanI have not got the update notification yet. I am expecting it this month based on calendar I saw on ubutnu website23:00
ozbrkniranjan, can you reach the apt-get update && upgrade ?23:01
niranjanozbrk, trying that now23:01
ozbrkniranjan, if you can try to update it with terminal more dependable accutaly23:01
ozbrkOerHeks, wow really thats strange23:02
naccozbrk: what's strange?23:03
OerHeks'more dependable'??23:03
niranjanozbrk, on command line it worked. Most probably culprit was mysql update. It was showing a configuration screen and likely UI could not handle it23:07
niranjanSaw this error too - /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-apt-config.config: line 182: [: =: unary operator expected23:08
therealtbehow to launch installer in text only mode?23:11
therealtbekeyboard gets stuck on language selection first page of installer23:12
OerHeksonly the mini-iso can do text-only install23:13
therealtbewhy does my keyboard work in bios and grub, but not on language selection install screen?23:14
OerHekstherealtbe, what machine is this?23:16
therealtbeOerHeks: intel nuc23:17
therealtbemaybe there is some grub kernel parameter that I can add to tell it to not kill usb keyboard23:18
OerHekscheck if there is an bios update http://www.pcworld.com/article/2097281/new-intel-nuc-bios-update-fixes-linux-installation-woes.html23:18
OerHeksalso a win7 issue https://communities.intel.com/thread/7722023:19
naccusb handoff from the bios can be buggy, for sure23:19
naccall that legacy mode stuff and whatnot23:19
OerHekshis keyboard works in grub, not installer..23:20
Bashing-omOerHeks: therealtbe :: Kernel cannot match what bios hands off ? Maybe change the USB settings in bios ? See if that makes a difference .23:22
dyc3Ive got a bit of a weird problem on my hands. I have a folder "/var/lib/tftpboot/" and, according to ls, it's a folder and i can list the files inside it (there are none currently). But when i try to use cp to copy files into it (specifically, "cp -r /media/USER/UUI/install/netboot/* /var/lib/tftpboot"), it says "cp: target '/var/lib/tftpboot/' is not a directory." has anyone else encountered this before?23:25
naccdyc3: is /var/lib/tftpboot by any chance actually a symlink? (ls -ahl /var/lib/ would say)23:26
dyc3nacc: no, because i created it myself,  and i double checked23:28
naccdyc3: are you doing hte cp as root/under sudo?23:28
dyc3nacc: yes, and i have tried using a different folder as well23:29
naccdyc3: and the different folder also doesn't work?23:29
dyc3nacc: nope23:29
Ben64dyc3: pastebin the output of "ls -ld /var/lib/tftpboot"23:30
jason_Can I copy my Ubuntu install to another disk? I just bought a larger SSD and want to transfer the install to it (so I can put the small one in my laptop).23:30
Ben64jason_: yep23:30
jason_Ben64, can you point me towards how to do it?23:32
Ben64jason_: easiest way would be to dd the whole thing over23:32
f0xtr0t-qwerty-khey guys23:33
dyc3nacc: http://sprunge.us/bYQQ23:34
jason_Ben64, there's not a tool for doing this? I'm a bit hesitant to use such a low level approach.23:34
jason_and I would need to screw around with some configuration files I'm sure? The bootloader at least?23:35
dyc3oops, wrong person23:35
dyc3ben64: http://sprunge.us/bYQQ23:35
Ben64jason_: no, a full dd would be no different23:35
Ben64dyc3: strange23:36
dyc3im using ubuntu 14.04.3 if it helps23:37
Ben64dyc3: something weird is going on, is /var some weird fs or something23:38
dyc3ben64: no, everything is on one partition23:38
est31my system always pesters me about installing flash23:39
est31how can I make it shut u23:39
est31p23:39
dyc3ben64: and iirc its ext423:39
est31and installing flash doesnt count23:39
naccdyc3: at the risk of sounding foolish: `cd /var/lib/tftpboot; cp -r /media/USER/UUI/install/netboot/* .` ?23:39
naccdyc3: does that fail the same way?23:40
dyc3one sec23:40
dyc3nacc: it worked! thanks23:43
naccdyc3: strange. :)23:43
=== Aria is now known as Aria|away
naccdyc3: in some sense, that's worse, as it breaks expectations :)23:43
naccdyc3: but glad you got your stuff copied :)23:44
Ben64original problem might have been typo then23:44
jason_Ben64, so if I just dd my current linux install over to a new disk, take the old disk out of my machine, everything will work perfectly without doing anything extra?23:45
R13oseHow do I combine two videos together into one?23:46
Ben64jason_: indeed. just make sure to do that from a livecd/usb and you're going to want to extend the partitions after23:46
