LtLmadcatter: this is not a warez or file-sharing channel00:00
KimishLordcirth: ok the latest (EE) i can see says "AIGLX: reverting to software rendering"00:00
lordcirthKimish, see, that's useful.  Now look at the one before that.  By the way, use '/' to search forwards and '?' to search backwards00:01
KILLME1I f***ed up pretty bad...I was using dd to write an iso to a usb (the iso was 3.6G) and acciddentaly overwrote my main partition which was dm-luks encrypted. It's still on, I'm currently looking at my xfce desktop but I can't do sh**. How do I either save my OS or export all my important stuff to another storage device??00:02
srulii need a some help with a little bash script i have for iptables, the script inserts rules for iptables  V 4 & 6 so i execute 'for V in 4 6; do ip${V}tables' i have a function to remove the  '4' when it populates the rules for iptables v4 ip4tables() {iptables $@} however it doesnt seem to remove the '4' can anyone help me out here please?00:02
sruliKILLME1: is the machine frozen?00:04
KILLME1not entirely conky is still running and whisker-menu still works but can't access a file manager00:04
KILLME1or a terminal00:04
sruliKILLME1: can u view the files with ls in terminal?00:05
lordcirthCtrl-Alt-F2, maybe?00:05
lordcirthttys should be in RAM00:05
lordcirthyou might be able to copy data using utilities that don't happen to be in the wrong 3.6GB or are cached00:06
KILLME1yeah Ctrl-Alt-F2 brings me to the login, I can type but will not login00:06
lordcirthgreat00:06
lordcirthThis would be the "load backups" phase00:07
lordcirthWhich I'm guessing you don't have00:07
sruliKILLME1: the first 5 workds u wrtoe sums it up... i feel ur pain, been there00:07
KILLME1you mean previous backups of the system? Yeah should have done that *facepalm00:08
tgm4883Sounds like it overwrote credentials, which since you can't open a terminal and it's an encrypted partition probably means game over00:08
OerHekswhat bothers me, can one dd to an mounted encrypted partition/disk..00:09
tgm4883unless you have a backup of your luks headers, then maybe you could do something with that00:09
lordcirthOerHeks, dd works on files, some of which happen to be block devices.  Not part of it's mandate to look for mounts00:09
sruliis there a chance the luks headers have not been overwritten and still poss to back it up?00:09
tgm4883OerHeks: why not? dd is a pretty powerful tool, and it's reasons exactly like this why we have tools for making USB bootable stuff that isn't dd00:10
KimishLordcirth : (EE) screen0 deleted because of no matching config section " and before that "(EE) open /dev/fb0: no such file or directory"  what do u think is the problem ?????00:10
KILLME1well my boot partition was exactly 100MB and the iso was 3.6. I think it might have overwritten the headers but idk00:10
tgm4883sruli: not likely, but possibly worth a shot00:10
lordcirthsruli, seeing as he dd'd 3.6GB from the beginning, it's gone, assuming it's the first partition on the drive00:10
lordcirthKILLME1, and your / was right after /boot?  Yeah it's gone.00:11
tgm4883lordcirth: I was on the assumption he wrote to the disk, not the partition00:11
tgm4883but yea, gone either way00:11
KILLME1oh sorry yeah disk00:11
KILLME1I did sudo dd if=file.iso of=/dev/sda bs-1M00:12
KimishLordcirth; ????00:12
KILLME1bs=1M*00:12
lordcirthKimish, ok, what graphics card do you have, and what driver were you using prior to it breaking?00:13
tgm4883KILLME1: it's times like this that a relevant yet unhelpful (post-dataloss) saying comes to mind. "If your data isn't backed up, it's not important"00:13
KILLME1lesson learned fml00:13
tgm4883KILLME1: yep, I think we've all been there at one point or another, missing something that we didn't back up00:14
srulican anyone help me with a little bash script i have for iptables, the script inserts rules for iptables  V 4 & 6 so i execute 'for V in 4 6; do ip${V}tables' i have a function to remove the  '4' when it populates the rules for iptables v4 ip4tables() {iptables $@} however it doesnt seem to remove the '4' can anyone help me out here please?00:14
lordcirthI nuked a 400GB Win7 partition once - which I was planning to do - once I moved my files off.00:15

lordcirthKimish, Is there a line about "nouveau" ?00:18
Kimishlordcirth: i cant00:19
KimishLordcirth : where should i look for the line in the begining ?00:20
lordcirthKimish, you're using "less", right?  Type /nouveau <Enter> to search for it, and /<Enter> to go to the next00:21
superguest_On previous versions of Ubuntu, to install the flashplayer plugin for Firefox all I needed to do was to cp libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins00:21

OerHeksi thought you needed the flashplugin-installer, which is part of restricted-extras metapackage00:23

KimishLordcirth ; yes there are so many lines with nouveau00:25
lordcirthKimish, ok, well, nouveau is the graphics driver you are using.  So there is a decent chance that those lines will reveal your problem.00:26

kholdstayrewhere are the init scripts for network-manager stored in ubuntu?00:33

lordcirthkimish, Unloading is not an error, as usc00:44
lordcirthsuch*00:44
lordcirthkimish, you want to look up a bit and see what triggered X to exit.00:44
kimishLordcirth: i remember it happened to me before wheb i wrote startx in the terminal , i got an easy fix at that time . But now the same problem but i dont know shat is causing it ?00:47
kimishLordcirth : how do i exit the log ??00:50
lordcirthkimish, 'q'00:50
lordcirthkimish, most likely there will be an error somewhere, between the X starting up and the X shutting down, that tells you the problem.00:51
=== S-USAMakesItRain is now known as SonikkuAmerica
kimishAm not sure wht u mean by X , but should i look for it in the log that error ??00:54
lordcirthkimish, X = X11 = Xorg, same thing.  It is what gets started when you run "startx" or login graphically00:54
lordcirthkimish, it is starting up, then immediately shutting down.  /var/log/Xorg.0.log is it's log file, which will tell you why.00:55

oct14732Hi I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu (and any other distro--tried Lubuntu and Mint) on my HP probook 6465b. The installs seems to go fine, but each time I try to boot, I get dumped out to the BusyBox / initramfs shell. mostly without an error message. But when I try to book in recovery mode, sometimes, I'll catch a "Gave up waiting for root device" msg with a specific error message. "Missing modules (cat /proc/modules: ls /dev01:13
oct14732 ALERT  UUID=a641a2c8-11ae-40ff-9e09-ac07b4953 does not exist. Dropping to Shell. I've tried a bunch of different solutions as suggested on the forums and AskUbuntu, and none of them seem to work. I'm new to linux, so please assume that I'm an idiot/beginner for answers.01:13
jn_jnwhen i want start a new project in the login windows after wrote mail and psswd, a message say "service not available, please try again later" no error in output terminal, I can work with it running offline01:14
somsipjn_jn: that's something you may need unity support about then01:14
lordcirthjn_jn, are you sure this is linux/ubuntu specific?  Sounds like a Unity thing to me01:14
jn_jnlordcirth, yep isn't a unity bug01:15
somsipoct14732: something like this might be relevant? http://homepage.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/Jan.Holthuis/misc/uefi-madness/01:15

lordcirthhttp://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201101-6954/  Certified hardware for 12.0401:16
somsipjn_jn: it's unsupported (here) and beta software. Issues are to be expected, but I know that's not helpful as such. Try unity support01:16

lordcirth_CoolGuy_, yes, generally.  Why?01:17
_CoolGuy_I don't know.01:18
oct14732lordcirth, do you think that the issue is that I'm trying to install an OS that's too recent? Should I downgrade to 12.05?01:18
lordcirthoct14732, I doubt that's the problem, Ubuntu stable releases are supposed to work on all reasonable hardware01:19
somsipoct14732: the section 'some very bad uefi implementations' suggests that this laptop uses a very bad uefi implementation. Also noted later with "or HP for putting such a crappy UEFI implementation "01:19

tgm4883oct14732: I'd see if there is a bios/uefi update01:24
somsipoct14732: missed the error message first time I read your question. Quick search shows loads of replies, including http://askubuntu.com/questions/461564/ubuntu-14-04-boot-error and https://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20150819/error-after-reboot-alert-devdiskby-uuid574707ab-c5c5-4886-b289-7446226fdd90-d both referring to using boot-repair-disk01:26

lordcirthteegee, resolvconf will overwrite it, yes.  Look for /etc/resolvconf01:49
teegeelordcirth: yes, I found that. it says it'll be overwritten too01:50

lordcirthteegee, not for dns.  systemctl restart networking01:52
lordcirthor a reboot, ofc01:52

lordcirthteegee, Ubuntu Desktop does weird things with networking.  Ubuntu Server uses /etc/network/interfaces quite cleanly.01:54
teegeelordcirth: I think I started with a server install but then I put the lubuntu package on. What do I have now? server or desktop?01:55
OerHeksweird? just disable networkmanager ..01:55
OerHeksor setup networkmanager correct01:55
lordcirth^01:55
tgm4883I wouldn't call it weird, network manager is managing the network connection01:55
tgm4883so if you want to put in custom DNS servers, put it in network manager01:56
OerHeksif you don't disable it, you script against a tiger :-D01:56
lordcirthIt would be more precise to say, things my server-focused self does not know.01:56
teegeetgm4883: I tried that with the nmcli01:56
tgm4883teegee: you couldn't add DNS servers via nmcli?01:57
ParlorMatgm4883, funny thing - I used SimpleScreenRec because something was popping up and I couldn't see it. Turns out the games loads to the StartScreen then the window closes & another one (black) opens up.01:57

N8TheGr8XinZhao, are you still here buddy?02:01
teegeeI'm setting the bridge up in /etc/network/interfaces so I assumed I can just use it to configure the dns too02:01
teegeeI only tried doing it with nm afterwards when it wasn't working02:02
OerHeksnow you know why02:02
teegeebecause when we assume we make an ass out of u and me?02:02

_44trentso i don't know if this is a good idea, but i'm trying to downgrade xorg to 1.17 so i can get fglrx to work on 16.0402:10
_44trenthow would i go about doing that?02:10
tgm4883_44trent: no, that would not be a good idea I think02:10
OerHeksyou will end up with 14.04.402:11
lordcirth_44trent, have you tried the new "amdgpu" driver?02:12
lordcirthor radeonsi02:12
_44trentcan't use AMDGPU on an R9 390 :/02:13
lordcirth_44trent, Gentoo wiki seems to disagree with you: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Amdgpu02:14
_44trentwell, actually02:14
daxdowngrading xorg in 16.04 is a terrible idea02:14
_44trentyeah if i compile my own kernel02:14
daxif you don't like the default driver in 16.04 for your card, your decent options are: 1) don't use 16.04, or 2) put up with it and see if a solution comes out at some point02:14
daxand by "decent" i mean things that will not break your system and render it unsupportable02:15
_44trentso what you're suggesting is i go to 14.04 or 15.10?02:15
OerHeks15.10 support ends with a month02:15
_44trent...so the previous LTS?02:15
daxi'd go with option (2) to be honest. 15.10 is only supported for nine months from release (so not long), and 14.04 is old and you can't use HWE because it'll end up with xenial xorg soon02:16
_44trenti'll just take a third option and get AMDGPU to work on R9 39002:16
_44trentall it requires it something enabled in the kernel...02:17
_44trentkernel upgrades are kind of risky though...02:17
daxif it involves kernel recompilation, #ubuntu doesn't support it. good luck, though02:17
lordcirth_44trent, Ubuntu generally keeps past kernels around02:17
dax(i do not know whether it does involve kernel recompilation, i haven't looked into it)02:17
_44trentyeah, it requires kernel recompilation. the gentoo wiki and arch wiki have good documentation on it02:18

Guest95904curious anybody know what the difference are between  UHCI/OHCI/EHCI and the xhci for usb controllers are the protocals or spec's pretty much compatible from a software register point of view or does it take much to port a control from one to the other02:25

OerHeksreally odd that it does not get installed02:32
todd_list02:34
Guest95904anybody know what the irq mei_me is for what hardware on the computer uses this... I looked up and it say's its called Intel(R) Management Engine Interface02:34
Guest95904And say's its for allow remote administrators to login to the machine to do such things as apply patches, defrags, and other administrative tasks02:34
Guest95904But what exactly is the hardware for it / what hardware triggers it uses02:35
OerHeksGuest95904, how is this related to ubuntu support?02:35
OerHekstry the ##hardware channel02:35
Guest95904its part of the ubuntu os02:35
jamesdGuest95904: my guess its for the ilom, or a group of iloms so tools could allowed to orcestrate the install over pathes on 100's or 1000's or even 10's of thousands of boxes, i think HP latest servers support it.02:36
tgm4883Guest95904: no, it's part of your intel processor/chipset. It's not generally used in home applications. Further, among privacy experts, it's considered a security risk02:36
Guest95904where is it used and how does it work .02:38
Guest95904remote administration why would that need an interrupt02:38
jamesdthink google or amazon clouds, where they need to patch many boxes at once. but frankly MC would do a better job and safer.02:38
Guest95904so your saying is it part of the cpu internals or on the motherboard02:38
tgm4883Guest95904: yes02:39

deadmundI just installed kubuntu-desktop and purged unity, but when I boot my system I just got a black screen (no login manager) what should I do?02:41
jamesdGuest95904: its basicly a small computer insdiet the big one that monitors the big computer and allows you to see the console over a web interface, and crates virtual cdrom so you can install the system from anywhere.02:42
jamesdinside02:42
deadmundI can switch to TTY1 and run commands02:42
lordcirthdeadmund, install sddm?  I think that's what Kubuntu 16.04 uses02:43
deadmundlordcirth: I installed it and I will reboot.  I was using lightdm I think (I have been working without taking a lot of care to what commands I've been running)02:43
Guest95904so won't that be a privacy issue since a hacker or somebody could uses it to monitor all of what your doing on your own computer02:44
tgm4883Guest95904: well yes02:44
lordcirthGuest95904, yes, if they can get in, or steal Intel's backdoor keys02:44
tgm4883Guest95904: I mean, they would need to gain access to it first02:44
Guest95904I guess what was the many purpose for it or the big benifit for the addition02:44
tgm4883Guest95904: you'd have to ask Intel02:44
deadmundI installed sddm, tested the sytem, no luck. I purged and reins02:45
deadmundSeems to be working fine.  Moving on02:45
deadmundlordcirth: Thanks!02:45
lordcirthdeadmund, cool.  np.02:46
jamesdGuest95904: if you tie into the ilom, you can have pre-shared keys so everything sent accross the wire is encrypted, and you can use firewalls to keep traffic off the network and ilom traffic is supposed to limited to system management only no internet.02:46
Guest95904has any home users ever used it or does the any os kernel uses this its on an irq a LKM does exist  mei and mei_me02:46
Guest95904so the os must have some uses for it02:46
samy87hello02:46
tgm4883jamesd: you can use the IME to gain access to the desktop session as well02:47
jamesdGuest95904: no a home user would use it, its faster to have windows updater or apt-get update/upgrade take care of it.  and most home users don't create there own packages.. so no real reason not to use the OS provided tools02:47
jamesdtgm4883: yeap probably helps some hell desk people.02:48
samy87for the life of me i cannot delete a folder even as root. i have checked lsof, restarted the server many times. shutdown all services with no avail. I keep getting permission denied. chmod is 0777, ownership is root. please adivse?02:48
jamesdbut really microsoft has remote desktop tools pretty well setup, just send a rdesktop invite or have them go to a website and take over .02:48
tgm4883jamesd: perhaps, although there are other tools for that. I'd much rather that IME didn't exist02:49
Guest95904so why are thos lkm loaded for it02:49
jamesdtgm4883: someone asked for it... probablty can be disabled without much trouble02:49
Guest95904if they dont have a purpose i should have no issues with other things not usesing it with rmmod02:50
tgm4883jamesd: well that's the rub. It's closed source proprietary stuff. Can it really be disabled?02:50
jamesdits probably an option in the bios or the ilom.02:50
b-yeezisamy87 did you look at lsattr? Make sure it is not an immutable file02:50
tgm4883jamesd: yes, there is an option for that, but I'm not sure I want to trust something so low level on the system that isn't open source02:51
samy87b-yeezi: no but lsattr says ----i--------e-- i don't know what this means!02:52
lordcirthsamy87, if you are sure you want to delete it, try 'chattr -i <file>'02:53
samy87never mind i understand02:53

epifanio__Ben64, can you explain? I do not undrstand .. that's the main problem06:42
brelodsubuh: is there any firewall settings? everything is accepted?06:42
subuhmy local server ip's 192.168.2.20006:42
tim241ok06:42
Ben64epifanio_: it's still not clear to me what you're doing, maybe try explaining it more fully? and use full paths, not relative06:43
subuhmy pc ip's 192.168.2.2006:43
epifanio__oh, i see. ok. in each $HOME of each user of my server there is a .local folder which has full path:  /home/$USER/.local/share/jupyter/*06:44
subuhi have tried to ping from my pc to my server, the result is reply06:44
epifanio__i copied it from one uswer to the other06:44
epifanio__cp -R /home/$USER_1/.local/share/jupyter/ /home/$USER_2/.local/share/06:45
brelodsubuh: try that: nc -vz 192.168.2.200 2206:45

epifanio__Ben64 yes06:48

tim241 but I can do sudo with the password of the roo account?failure06:58
Ben64!root | tim24106:59
ubottutim241: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo06:59
tim241why did they removed that? wtf07:00

epifanio__Ben64, big brother debian said: remove the copy .. and copy it again using sudo07:00

GnomethrowerHey everyone. I was wondering if anyone knows a tool like fuser or lsof that works on FUSE filesystems when they crash08:31
ikoniafuse file system ?08:32
ikoniait's not actually a file system, it's just how it's presented to the user over the network08:33
ikoniaeg: samba - is not actually a file system08:33
Gnomethrowerspecifically, if MooseFS or LizardFS or GlusterFS FUSE client crashes, with dir /storage/lfs as the mountpoint, I can't umount /storage/lfs until I kill anything using it. lsof and fuser however are useless in this scenario and do not work with crashed FUSE mountpoints08:33
Gnomethrowerikonia: in this case I'm talking about actual filesystems. I'm aware FUSE is for other stuff too08:33
ikoniaGnomethrower: what file system are you actually talking about then08:33
_peter_@search pease08:33
Gnomethrowerikonia: LizardFS in this case, but we've seen the same behaviour from Gluster and MooseFS08:34
ikoniaGnomethrower: isn't this the same situation as any remote userspace mount, as then the mount goes the userdata/status is lost08:34
ikoniaso when you remount tools like lsof won't show anything08:34
hotspotanybody know how to change channel on the ubuntu hotspot or some other software to create a hotspot without AP mode?08:35
ikoniaso you fix it on the server which the file system is not a userspace mount, it's a local file system08:35
Gnomethrowerikonia: I'm not worried about remounting losing the status08:35
Gnomethrowerikonia: I'm wanting to unmount it from a client, but it won't let me while for example nginx is running08:35
Gnomethrowerand usually lsof/fuser would tell you what to kill to be able to successfully umount08:36
Gnomethrowerbut lsof and fuser do not work on a crashed FUSE mountpoint08:36
Gnomethrowerokay, apparently this is a kernel limitation and there's really no easy solution08:36
Gnomethrowerso consider my question solved I guess08:37
diverdudeikonia, if i set up chroot for a specific user logging on via ssh, would that user still be able to run rsync from his home directory to a remote server?08:38

marlo_or the next question would be how do i remove it?11:51
marlo_it's virtual box!11:51
marlo_no clue why it's in my home Downloads folder, except that I installed virtual box not from apt but that was some time ago11:52
marlo_how do i get rid of it?11:52
marlo_(not virtual box, the error)11:53
ikoniawhat is triggering the call to that script11:53
ikoniaI assume it's something within the custom initrd ?11:53
marlo_well, from what I've observed, updates to the system involve updates to initrd from virtualbox11:54
marlo_so that's part of it's typical function, beyond me11:54

jimbotuxwhen making changes to /etc/security/limits.conf in 1604 it doesnt seem i need to add anything like "session required         pam_limits.so"13:28

jimbotuxdoes anyone know if this is maybe something to do with systemd and logind..? i can see pam_systemd mentioned now in common-sessions as standard in 1604.13:29

sveinseI'm trying to get crashplan running on a NAS server running 16.04, and I keep getting not-found by stsremctl status crashplan, despite that a service has been installed to /etc/init.d. I thought systemctl evaluated legacy init.d services as well. What can I do to proceed the debugging?13:33
ikoniasveinse: no it won't13:33
jimbotuxikonia, so i make the change then sudo su - USERNAME and changes are there in 160413:33
ikoniasveinse: list the unit files13:33
ikoniajimbotux: ahh, that isn't a surprise13:33
ikoniaas that is a session parameter13:33
jimbotuxikonia, but 1404 nothing until i add the common sessions.13:33
sveinseikonia: ? list unit files?13:34
ikoniasveinse: yes the systemd13:34
ikoniasveinse: as /etc/init.d means nothing13:34
ikoniasveinse: I assume this is not coming from the ubuntu repo13:34
ikoniarather some 3rd party repo13:34
Xinevening all13:34
ikoniajimbotux: that sort of makes sense13:34
sveinseikonia: But why does ubuntu maintain /etc/rc*.d/ then? That is lecacy init.d isn't it?13:35
ikoniasveinse: yes, as some upstart scripts are wrapped13:35
jimbotuxikonia, Could you explain why please? Im scratching my head..am i missing something or has something changed. Thanks13:35
sveinseikonia: So why does systemd does not pickup crashplan as a startable service then?13:35
ikoniasveinse: because you have not created a systemd unit file for it - you're looking at legacy init files13:36
ikoniasveinse: where did this package from from13:36
Trent1Hello, my brightness controls and wifi controls (function keys) aren't working. Using Ubuntu 16.0413:36
sveinseikonia: official crashplan installation13:37
ikoniajimbotux: so as I understand it now, a new session is spawned - that is now controlled by systemd in terms of the enviornment13:37
ikoniasveinse: ok - so have they packaged and built it for systemd13:37
ikonia!info crashplan13:37
ubottuPackage crashplan does not exist in xenial13:37
sveinseikonia: I know it's their responsibility to fix, but it does not help me when ubuntu has changed to systemd :(13:37
ikoniasveinse: then you need to contact them13:38
ikoniasveinse: and ask them to fix their packages and maintain them13:38
ikoniaor you need to use software that is designed for the operating system you want to use13:38
Trent1Is there like a "keyboard driver" or something that I need to install to get my function keys back?13:38
jimbotuxikonia, cheers. I assumed it was systemd related. Might ask in systemd irc for more details13:38
rbasakikonia, sveinse: systemd does have backwards-compatible support for init.d scripts.13:39
ikoniajimbotux: yeah, I'd need to understand the session managment better (as I don't at the moment) but systemd will control the spawning of the new process - so it controls the env13:39
sveinseikonia: Sorry, not really helpful....13:39
ikoniarbasak: which you have to configure and maintain, you can't just drop it in13:39
ikoniasveinse: it is - as it's the real solution13:39
ikoniasveinse: you want to use 3rd party software that doesn't work on the ubuntu distro - it is the 3rd parties job to support and maintain it, you need to talk to them, or you need to pick software designed for the OS you are running13:40
rbasakikonia: I don't think it needs any special handling to Just Work, apart from telling systemd to reload after changing things.13:40
rbasakhttps://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-sysv-generator.html13:40
ikoniarbasak: it depends on the way the init script is written13:40
ikoniayou can load it in, but that doesn't mean it will work13:40
sveinseikonia: To ask otherwise: How can systemd be aware of an init.d service (because it is), but not be able to start it. As in, why do the legacy init.d system exist in the first place, and how come it works while this does not?13:40
Trent1Pls respond13:40
ikoniasveinse: I've told you why they exist13:40
ikoniasveinse: some scripts are wrapped by systemd13:40
sveinseikonia: So there is a systemd service dispatch that calls the rc*.d scripts. Is that it?13:41
ikoniasveinse: why the init script does ont work when loaded by systemd is something you will need to raise with crash plan support13:41
ikoniasveinse: basicaly yes, but the scrpits that are wrapped sometimes call a wrapper that calls them to fix the shortcomings/incompatabilities13:41
akiksveinse: did you read "journalctl -xe" to see if it contains errors about crashplan?13:42
Gnjuractotally  offtopic but is WebSkype buged atm cuz i cant login?13:42
sveinseikonia: Well, lets keep crashplan out of the equation for a second. I want to understand how the legacy init.d is supported and why it works for something, while not for others13:42
ikoniasveinse: you are using comercial business software - it doesn't work13:43

beantaxiAny idea why apt-get wants me on 3.13.x?13:53
tomaz__thought so13:53
ikoniabeantaxi: because it keeps you on a stable supported version for your release13:53
ikoniaash_workz: so the version of ruby shipped with your version of ubuntu is too old for the version of jekyll you are using13:54

ikoniatomaz__: it's just not realistic to work the way you want13:54

ikoniaash_workz: no13:54
ikoniaash_workz: it will only upgrade to the versions ubuntu package repo offer you13:54
beantaxiikonia: So presumably that's the latest stable kernel for 14.0.4, but a later version of Ubuntu might pair with a more recent kernel?13:54
ikoniabeantaxi: correct13:55
ikoniabeantaxi: do you need a later version ?13:55
ash_workzikonia: okay... so to get a more recent version of ruby, should I be installing a ruby package manager?13:55
beantaxiFair question :) I get the sense that sticking with 14.0.4 is perfectly sane, but I'd be happy for other opinions13:55
ikoniaash_workz: no, I don't believe so13:55
ash_workzikonia: what should I do?13:55
ikoniabeantaxi: if you don't need a newer version, you'll just be chasing  version number and put your build at risk, just let ubuntu manage the versions for you and it will offer upgrades if and where available13:56
ikoniaash_workz: depends on you and a few things about how you want to move forward13:56

beantaxiikonia: And no reason to leap to 16.04 from 14.04, as long as Trusty seems to be serving me well?13:57
ikoniabeantaxi: totally up to you - if you have a need to, or see something you think "yes thats worth it" then yes,13:58
ikoniabeantaxi: otherwise you have a few years of support left that you can just use your machine until you see that magic something that you think is worth the upgrade13:59
beantaxiikonia: Hmm, looking at ububtu releases (for the first time) ... 14.0.4.3 is End Of Life for "HWE August 2016", and 15.10 is actually July 2016.13:59
ikoniabeantaxi: 14.04 has years left on it14:00

doublel93anyone has problem on changing resolution on vpshere with ubuntu 16.04 LTS ?14:00
beantaxiK, so I can expect a followup to 14.0.4.3 LTS; it's just not on the release page yet14:01
ash_workzikonia: ap https://gist.github.com/anonymous/088108a8639ef400e9f45d6b88d16790 -- would imply there is not a more recent release, right?14:01
EdwardMorbiushello. does ubuntu clock snap from the store work for you guys on the desktop? it doesnt start on my system14:01
ikoniaash_workz: no, it would imply there is no later version of that package name14:02
ikoniaash_workz: eg: if there are differing major versions they are often called a different thing, eg: ruby=1.9 ruby2 =2.014:02
beantaxiikonia: Ok, so I can expect a followup to 14.0.4.3 LTS; it's just not on the release page yet14:02

ubottubeantaxi: LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Xenial (Xenial Xerus 16.04)14:03
ash_workzikonia: from ruby-lang.com https://gist.github.com/anonymous/cfdcba1e083aff73a94a8d32cc478b3d14:03
ikoniaash_workz: re-read whwat I said14:03
beantaxiikonia: Perfect. Thanks very much!14:04
beantaxiubottu: So from the List Of Releases (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases), the first 14.0.4 LTS was April 17, 2014. So it will live for 5 years from that date?14:05
ubottubeantaxi: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)14:05
beantaxiHa ... newish to IRC; I did not know bots were a thing14:06
cscfbeantaxi, yes, the !lts command, piped to you, causes the bot to tell you a prerecorded explanation.  it saves a lot of time on support channels.14:06
ikoniabeantaxi: no, 5 years from iniital release14:07
ikoniaubuntu 14.04 was released in 04 201414:07
ikoniaso 5 years from that point14:07

OzwulfHello can anyone help me I'm trying to  Decrease swappiness value but i can't because im not admin ? how can i make me admin ?14:08
ikoniaOzwulf: talk to the admin of the machine14:08
lyze!sudo | Ozwulf14:08
ubottuOzwulf: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !pkexec (for older releases: !gksu and !kdesudo). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo14:08
gulzarOzwulf: not possible. Only admin can make you admin14:08
beantaxicscf: Thanks ... I saw ikonias command, and thought (well that looks weird but I guess I'll try it)14:08
gulzarOzwulf: if you have root rights.Then try sduo/su14:08
ikoniagulzar: do not suggest that14:09
gulzarikonia: ok, Ozwulf : try sudo -i14:09
gulzarikonia: i forgot everyone have diff level of experience :)14:10
ikoniaif someone doesn't know how to use sudo at a basic level, they should not be messing with swapiness14:11

ash_workzikonia: how did you know there was a ruby2.0 package14:12
ash_workz?14:12
Ozwulf<gulzar> thanks mate14:12
ikoniaash_workz: I looked14:12
ash_workzikonia: using what?14:12
ikoniaash_workz: the package manager14:13
lyze!find ruby214:13
ubottuFound: libruby2.3, libruby2.3-dbg, ruby2.3, ruby2.3-dev, ruby2.3-doc, ruby-ruby2ruby, ruby2.3-tcltk, uwsgi-plugin-rack-ruby2.3, W:, W: (and 21 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=ruby2&searchon=names&suite=xenial&section=all14:13
ash_workzikonia: specifically14:13
ash_workzikonia: I want to adopt whatever mentality you used14:13
duryhi there channel :-)14:13
ikoniaash_workz: I opened the package manager and in the search box I typed "ruby"14:13
Piciash_workz: apt-cache search ruby   would be a good start14:13
lyzeash_workz, probably something like sudo apt-cache search <name>14:13
ash_workzokay.... but just doing apt-cache search ruby without knowing there might be a ruby2 yields an overwhelming number of results14:15

ikoniaash_workz: if I can look in the package manager and see it - why can't you14:16
ikoniawhich is why I told you to "look" rather than just trying to upgrade the 1.9 package over and over14:16
ash_workzso the take home message is try the gui package manager first?14:17
ikoniayour take home message is to actually look at things and research14:18
arca_voragoOn 16.04, when trying to shutdown, hangs with message about libvirt guests on URI, but there are no running guests, so I have to do a hard reset... anyone seen this?14:19
ash_workzikonia: yes yes, you're totally right. But, also.... to look at things and research by way of the gui first, right?14:19
ikoniaash_workz: no14:19
ash_workzikonia: okay, so look at things and research by first.... ?14:19
ikoniaarca_vorago: open the consoles on the guest and just check they have shutdown, I've seen libvirt mark a host as shutdown before it's powered off properly14:19
ikoniaash_workz: what ?14:19
arca_voragoI don't have any guests running though14:20
ikoniaarca_vorago: re-read what I said14:20
=== phraktyl is now known as Guest28990
arca_voragoikonia: not trying to be difficult, but how do I open console on a guest that doesn't exist?14:23
ash_workzikonia: you want me to actually look at things and research; which I totally agree... the installer page on ruby-lang.org does not give any indication that there might be a ruby2 package; apt-cache search ruby yields 1080 lines of output; so if you are thinking about installing a package completely foreign to you and you wouldn't know the name of said package whether its xyz2, xyz-2 xyz_2,...14:23
ash_workz...xyznew, xyz-next, or whatever...  it seems like the the first thing *you* would do is try the gui package manager.14:23
ikoniaarca_vorago: ahh you don't have any at all - let alone any running14:24
ikoniaarca_vorago: thats different14:24
ash_workzikonia: trying to adopt whatever line of thinking got you to that point14:24
ikoniaash_workz: ruby-lang.org is nothing to do with ubuntu14:24
ikoniaash_workz: did you look at the ubuntu wiki, did you look at the package manager, did you read any of the ubuntu forums posts, did you read any of the mailing list archives14:24
ash_workzikonia: did you do any of that?14:25
ikoniaash_workz: what does it matter what I did14:25
ash_workzikonia: I am trying to adopt your train of thought14:25
ikoniayou asked how you needed to research, I'm offering you suggestions14:25
arca_voragolibvirt-guests isn't vital to normal operations is it?14:25
arca_voragoso I could just systemctl disable it14:25
ikoniaash_workz: forget me - I opened the package manager and searched for ruby - you are asking how to research wha tyou need14:25

Xinmaxto on windows does it14:37
ash_workzikonia: sorry, part of the reason I am being persistent about this is because there is a lot of unturstworthy material on the internet that pretends to be an authority on the topic; it is very easy to be led astry by that kind of information; that's why I wanted to isolate your thought process; to try to protected against bad information.14:37

Tag_but not on xenial14:40
Tag_how could i install this package?14:41
ash_workzikonia: for example; googling `ubuntu install ruby` first gives the ruby-lang.org site, followed by 4 "ruby on rails" posts from gorails.com, followed by stackoverflow.com -- all possibly not what I need/want/bad info.14:41
odroidsalut14:42
naccTag_: don't depeend on that pacakge, it's been deleted from debian as well due to being abandoned14:42
k1l_Xin: unity offers a 2x2 grid and you can snap the windows with pushing them to the edges or using the shortcuts14:42

kristijanzHi, I need assistance in resolving a radeon gpu problem on Ubuntu 16.04. In this doc I described the problem and linked some logs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15Vtw-gmDesxuHoJTYY8IqvhFBXv-dbQdRpnP6HLSn6k/edit?usp=sharing Thanks to anyone who takes the time to look at it!16:32
kimishnacc ; yes i was able to get to the log in page but i couldnt pass it i kept having loops and stuck in the login page , i tried some solutions found it in the nest and today morning i have lost access to the log in page completly !16:33
kristijanzbasicly, my radeon dgpu is not used by the os which uses Intel on board graphics instead and heats up my cpu over 100°C.16:34
OerHekskristijanz, if there is an bios update, go for it.16:34
nacckimish: it's hard to figure out what is wrong if you tried some solutions and didn't revert them. Are all the solutions you tried still in effect?16:34
potato_farmerk1l_: better to suggest something than just complain about someone's caps, and startx was just a suggestion to see if it would get a GUI, calm yourself16:35

IlmenHello everybody. I have Ubuntu LTS 14.04 64 bits, and tried several times to upgrade it to Xenial, to no avail. Everytimes it tells me something along the lines of "Cannot evaluate the upgrade. An unsolvable problem occurred during the preparation for the upgrade." Then it says it might be due either to an upgrade to or from a development version of Ubuntu, or unoffical packages.16:57

ente_Hello everyone, I am running Ubuntu 16.04 with two different nvidia gpus and a skylake i7 6700. I want to use kvm/qemu to run a Windows VM with one gpu passthrough. When I try to create a VM using virtual machine manager (or xml files) I receive the following error: "vfio: error, group 1 is not viable, please ensure all devices within the iommu_group are bound to their vfio bus driver" I am not so experienced with linux/ubuntu, however I kno19:11
ente_w what this error means, but I do not know how to fix it. Maybe someone can give me some advices in particular for ubuntu, because most tutorials/posts I have found are for the arch kernel linux-vfio. Details: http://paste.ubuntu.com/17126955/19:11

chaotixhey.  I am having trouble getting Comodo Antivirus to start up, my os is Ubuntu 16.04 64 bit.  The package itself was for 12.04, and so there was a dependency problem preventing me from installing the 64 bit, so I installed the 32 bit.  It installed, but it will not run.  When I try to launch it from the terminal, it says: "error while loading shared libraries: libpam.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directo20:25
Ben64chaotix: don't run things for other versions20:26
Ben64chaotix: and you don't really need antivirus20:27
chaotixBen64: i didnt realize that was a problem running something for another version..  i know i dont need it, i just wanted to check it out20:27

chaotixand then i got curious why it says "error while loading shared libraries: libpam.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory", because i found libpam.so.020:28
OerHekschaotix, Comodo Antivirus is discontinued20:28
bpromptchaotix:    depending on the package and dependencies, you "can" run apps from other versions, but often times the older dependencies they may require, may not be available on the newer OS version, or may just not be installable even if you had it, due to a newer version or replacement lib20:29
chaotixok, so it was probably because is a newer version of the libpam..20:30
chaotixthanks20:30
chaotixi just like testing out different software in my spare time, it's like therapy for me20:30
chaotixlol20:30
Ben64well try out software made for 16.0420:30
Ben64the ubuntu software center is a good place to look20:30
chaotixBen64: i do like the sofware center, and also OMG Ubuntu is nice...  and Alternativeto.net is nice for finding software I might not otherwise find..  such as menulibre or nylas n1, or Tomahawk...  all great options..  however, then we sometimes get compatibility snaffoos that wouldnt happen in the software center, so it is definitly the safer bet20:36

pnwiseCan someone help me with WoL problem?21:17
pnwiseI can't make it persistent21:17
pnwiseIf I set it manually with "sudo ethtool -s enp3s0 wol g" it runs fine, just for the next boot21:18
Laurenceb__hi, anyone here used autopsy?21:18
Laurenceb__I'm trying to use it to recover files, but it can't seem to be able to open any directories21:18
Laurenceb__its very odd as the filesystem mounts ok on my system21:18
tewardpnwise: not sure if that is able to really be persistent, but you could put that command into /etc/rc.local maybe, without the 'sudo', and it may be able to make things persistent (because it runs every boot)21:19
pnwiseBut if I make systemd service it doesn't work, while ethtool still reporting that wol is on g mode(magic packet), but it doesn't work21:19
pnwiseteward, I will try that too, but I doubt it will make a difference21:20
tewardpnwise: I didn't say to use systemd.  If it refuses to be persistent, then perhaps check something deeper than the OS level - BIOS or Firmware - where WoL can be enabled21:20
pnwiseBut it is working if I type the command21:20
pnwisejust not if it is scripted21:20

Bashing-omsuperguest: If only a single instance of 'buntu is installed. not showing the grub menu is the expected behavior.

pnwiseOerHeks, teward Thanks! It seems to be working fine in rc.local, have no idea why it doesn't work with systemd. Have to go ask poetering21:29

naccdreamaddict: so the rough layout is, for lib* packages: lib* is the runtime library needed to run applications that depend on it. lib*-dev are the development headers needed to compile against that library. `apt-get source lib*` will get you the source for building that package.22:10

OerHeksintel does not show indeed22:32
MonthuI have AmD22:32
Monthuintegrated graphic22:32
OerHeksoh, alternative driver .. from a PPA?22:32
Monthuusually it shows the open source driver (xorg) next to the proprietary one22:33
Ben6416.04 doesn't have proprietary amd driver anymore i believe22:33
OerHeksin your case, 'do not use the device' should roll back to the radeon driver i guess.22:33
Bashing-omMonthu: Release 16.04 then the only display driver now available is in the kernel .22:33
Monthu"Do not use" roll back to default open-source driver then?22:34
Ben64thats for your cpu, don't do that22:35
Monthuwhat should I do. I just need the open-source driver22:36
OerHeksoh amd cpu, not gpu ..22:37

Monthuin prior versions of ubuntu, i had the option to select the xorg driver. I don't have that option anymore22:41
Ben64right, as stated twice already, 16.04 doesn't have proprietary drivers anymore for amd22:42
Monthuwhen u look at the image, it says "2 proprietary drivers in use"22:42
OerHeks'xorg' driver would be the radeon driver22:42
Ben64and when you look closer at the image, it shows that one is for your wireless, and one is for your cpu22:42
MonthuI know. I'm talking about the cpu22:43
Monthuusually I get something like this http://www.aplikasipc.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Update-Software-Ubuntu.jpg22:44
