| ubuntu__ | so the toolbar , windows manager is not just a seperate process that one can kill pid and exec another in its place | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| ikonia | ubuntu__: what is the end goal here | 00:00 |
| k1l_ | ubuntu__: but again: you are too much theoretical for this channel. we are here to solve issues. not to build theoretical issues. what you want to do is get to know how stuff works and how to change it. that means reading the documentation and the code. | 00:00 |
| CodeMouse92 | ubuntu__: Correct. It's all one thing. And k1l_ is correct | 00:00 |
| ubuntu__ | to change out the tool bars or windows manager i was thinking they would have coded it to be seperate programs that you could switch out the pieces with relative easy or even code another toolbar that you exec in its place | 00:01 |
| bprompt | ubuntu__: hmmm depends on what you're trying to do, I run kde apps, and thus run "sddm", however I use lxde as WM, and my window customization and desktop and taskbar and such, are in LXDE | 00:01 |
| ubuntu__ | for just unity or for all the desktop managers pretty much | 00:01 |
| k1l_ | ubuntu__: no. on the big desktop enviroments (like unity) its not seperated into different programs | 00:01 |
| bazhang | ubuntu__, so try gnome-shell and its numerous extensions | 00:01 |
| ikonia | ubuntu__: what is the end goal here | 00:01 |
| ikonia | ubuntu__: just tell us what you want at the end | 00:01 |
| bprompt | ubuntu__: back in SuSE used to run gnome apps in kde, or run a gnome session and run kde apps, also has xfce installed | 00:01 |
| dax | KDE lets you use other window managers fairly easily (there's a system settings option for it). | 00:02 |
| k1l_ | bprompt: i think this is one of the few examples where the agreed on one standard | 00:02 |
| Lucid | That didn't work. I logged out and restarted yet it's still not showing up. | 00:02 |
| dax | Personally I'm fond of KDE with openbox. | 00:02 |
| k1l_ | Lucid: is chrome installed properly? | 00:03 |
| ubuntu__ | to beable to create my own desktop not just change the desktop themes or icons on it but to change the windows manager (the way the windows look/feel) as well as the toolbars (look and feel weather it has startup menu or not ...) | 00:03 |
| Lucid | I'll try uninstalling it and reinstalling it. | 00:03 |
| === thebaer is now known as bear|away | ||
| ikonia | ubuntu__: not going to happen | 00:03 |
| ikonia | ubuntu__: you'd do better to learn how to theme the desktop you like | 00:03 |
| Tin_man | ubuntu__, you'll have to program your own linux then | 00:04 |
| k1l_ | Lucid: apt-cache policy google-chrome-stable | 00:04 |
| ubuntu__ | I was thinking it was just piecing together the toolbar program and start menu program and windows manager to form your desktop manager but not if its all integrated as one application so you have to code from scratch | 00:04 |
| ikonia | ubuntu__: no | 00:04 |
| ubuntu__ | ok thanks | 00:04 |
| bprompt | ubuntu__: hmmm I pretty much do that, I mean, I run lxde and my desktop and taskbar and menus are from lxde, though I run kde apps and also QT ones | 00:04 |
| Tin_man | there is much more flexibility in Linux desktop manager's than any windows environment | 00:05 |
| k1l_ | ubuntu__: look at cinnamon what they needed to do to get the gnome-shell change the look to the old gnome2 look. its a lot of effort. there are more modular smaller desktops | 00:05 |
| ubuntu__ | yes i got it i have done things like that a little thrue xinitrc files and other x11 configuration files but want to understand it at the more higher levels of creating your own windows and desktop managers | 00:06 |
| Tin_man | I bet kde would be enough to keep you busy for a tad bit.. | 00:06 |
| Lucid | Okay, I got it now. | 00:07 |
| ubuntu__ | i see that it is going to be complex if you don't uses existing windows and desktop manager components | 00:07 |
| k1l_ | ok. i guess the folks in #ubuntu-offtopic will give their opinions on that since we left the actual ubuntu support in here. | 00:07 |
| === bear|away is now known as thebaer | ||
| ubuntu__ | sure i know with GTK+ or QT i could figure out how to a gui window or menu or toolbar but tieing it to the linux system is the part that is going to be difficult . I mean i know of crap ways of doing it but interms of a good coding practice way like gnome or kde was built | 00:08 |
| ubuntu__ | i could make a button on a toolbar from QT say that when click executes a particular program at a location but i have a feeling hard coding it and doing it this way is not a good portable way of doing it | 00:10 |
| Shambles | Ok so I might be an idiot but I can't reown a folder that's owned by root. | 00:10 |
| Ben64 | Shambles: what folder where why | 00:10 |
| ubuntu__ | chown | 00:11 |
| k1l_ | Shambles: use chown on the cli. | 00:11 |
| CodeMouse92 | ubuntu__: Actually, (A) if you want to create your own GUI, window manager, or whatever, you WILL have to write code. (B) That's entirely off-topic to this room :) | 00:11 |
| Shambles | I'm using putty to connect over SSH. I've mounted a 2nd HDD connected over SATA. | 00:11 |
| Shambles | I've tried sudo chown -R david:laycocks \mnt\hdd1 | 00:12 |
| ubuntu__ | ya i don't mind writting code i know i could get it to work but writting it to be a portable windows or desktop manager that could function on other peoples machines is another thing plus i know i would code it shitty | 00:12 |
| Shambles | No error message but ls -l still shows root as the owner and group | 00:12 |
| Ben64 | \ isn't correct | 00:12 |
| CodeMouse92 | ubuntu__: Writing code is the only way to make it "portable to other people's machines," and the only way to get better at writing code is by writing code. PMing you to keep the noise down in here (I'm a programming professional) | 00:13 |
| k1l_ | Shambles: \is windows. / is linux. | 00:13 |
| Shambles | Ok I'll try again. I'm not sure which slash I used. I may end up d/c'ing from here attempting to get back to the CLI :P | 00:13 |
| Shambles | It autocompleted the folder name so I assume it was correct | 00:14 |
| Ben64 | what filesystem is it | 00:14 |
| ikonia | it's going to be ntfs | 00:14 |
| ubuntu__ | I more of a creative man never was good with writing coding well for maintainability/portability . More for understanding , performance ... | 00:14 |
| Shambles | NTFS. Used to be a secondary drive on my HTPC | 00:14 |
| k1l_ | !ot | ubuntu__ | 00:14 |
| ubottu | ubuntu__: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 00:14 |
| Ben64 | ikonia is a wizard | 00:15 |
| ikonia | same old same old | 00:15 |
| Ben64 | Shambles: yeah so you can't use chown on ntfs | 00:16 |
| Shambles | Oh right, NTFS just uses ACL's doesn't it. | 00:17 |
| ikonia | no | 00:17 |
| ikonia | it's just not supported on linux | 00:17 |

| campee | nacc: oops, premature paste. i tried setting that in my preseed file, and now it prompts me to select an interface, even though only one of the two interfaces actually has a cable plugged into it. it seems that i'm being affected by this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/855921 | 01:06 |

| campee | nacc: it looks like i've fixed it by adding "biosdevname=0" to my PXE boot line and specifying eth0 | 01:09 |
| nacc | campee: ah yes, did you try *passing* that to your install kernel? | 01:09 |
| nacc | campee: netcfg/choose_interface=auto, that is | 01:09 |
| campee | nacc: i didn't know that was something you could pass to your install kernel. is that what the option looks like? havne't seen them with a slash in their name before | 01:11 |
| nacc | campee: yes, you can | 01:13 |
| nacc | campee: i think you can technically pass your whole preseed on the cmdline, but htat would be crazy, and you'd run out of space eventually | 01:14 |
| nacc | campee: you're just passing the d-i strings with assignment and the installer knows how to parse them | 01:14 |
| campee | nacc: oh ok, good to know. i think i prefer them all to use 'eth0', so biosdevname=0 is an attractive option to me | 01:14 |

| capum321 | hello | 01:18 |
| capum321 | i am trying to accomplish this http://www.monodevelop.com/developers/building-monodevelop/#linux | 01:18 |
| capum321 | requires libssh2... is it work if install libssh-4 as seen by my package manager? | 01:19 |
| capum321 | does it work* if install 'libssh-4' as listed by apt-cache* | 01:21 |
| teward | capum321: libssh2 exists in the repositories | 01:22 |
| teward | what Ubuntu are you on? | 01:22 |
| capum321 | i found libssh2-1 | 01:23 |
| capum321 | 14.04 trusty | 01:24 |
| teward | capum321: you're probably after libssh2-1-dev | 01:24 |
| capum321 | all right | 01:24 |
| Arcaire | Would network interfaces still be called eth0/eth1 etc. in Xenial during install, or have they migrated to the new meme names? | 01:24 |
| Arcaire | enp0s20f0 etc. | 01:25 |
| Arcaire | (seriously what) | 01:25 |
| capum321 | teward monodoc 1.0 should be what? monodoc-base? | 01:26 |
| teward | capum321: if I may ask, why're you trying to compile mono from source? | 01:27 |
| teward | monodevelop* | 01:27 |
| teward | Monodevelop's own documentation suggests to use packages that exist on the LInux distros already. And it's in Ubuntu 14.04 | 01:27 |
| lunabuff | hi | 01:28 |
| capum321 | teward: to install v 6.0 and verify if some bugs are fixed on 5.10 | 01:28 |
| teward | capum321: try `apt-get build-dep monodevelop` then try to compile from source | 01:28 |
| capum321 | teward what can I do monodevelop 5.10 got buggy on my machine | 01:29 |
| teward | capum321: the command I just said downloads and installs ***build dependencies*** | 01:29 |
| teward | that should help with the need to get all the build depends to build from source | 01:29 |
| teward | capum321: you then should try and compile from source and see if it says anything else is missing | 01:29 |
| === dana is now known as Guest81896 | ||
| capum321 | teward E: Unable to find a source package for monodevelop | 01:31 |
| capum321 | just monodoc might be missing! | 01:32 |
| teward | capum321: I think the sources on your computer are messed up then because the source packages do exist. That said, I'm not going to walk through every single build dependency. *maybe* it's monodoc-base, you'll have to try yourself | 01:33 |
| teward | a lot of times a lot of these 'build from source' things are 'trial and error' to get the packages you need | 01:33 |
| capum321 | you said sources on my computer are messed up... which sources ? can I repair this? | 01:34 |

| Yuri4_ | Ben64 I did enter password of course | 01:39 |
| Ben64 | Yuri4_: what os is the client and server | 01:40 |

| Yuri4_ | Ben64 I did enter it | 01:44 |
| Ben64 | well... you didn't | 01:44 |
| Yuri4_ | Ben64 what do you base your assumption on? | 01:45 |
| Ben64 | because every time i try it under a bunch of different conditions, i get output that passwords have been sent and whether it is accepted or not | 01:45 |
| k1l_ | i dont see an error after the passwordprompt. | 01:45 |
| Yuri4_ | Ben64 this is stupid. I'm telling you that I did enter a password | 01:46 |
| Yuri4_ | Do you try with ssh -vvv ? | 01:46 |
| Ben64 | yep | 01:46 |
| Yuri4_ | then the reason is not that I did not enter a password, because I did | 01:46 |
| Ben64 | ok so what happens after you enter your password | 01:47 |
| Yuri4_ | Ben64, line 127-135 | 01:47 |

| mhalano | snkcld, if you compile from source probably the utilities already are installed on your system. But look for the content of this package and realize if you need this utilites. | 01:58 |
| Lope | on my previous laptop, mate had a CPU freq scaling widget I could use to lock my CPU speed to 800mhz so it didn't jump up to 2.7ghz etc. I'm still running mate but can't find that widget. I also ran many find commands on /proc looking for stuff relating to *cpu* *scali* *freq* *max* etc and could not find any special switches to adjust the MAX CPU freq. I'm running a 4.4 kernel.

| netameta | sudo echo "deb http://nginx.org/packages/mainline/ubuntu/ trusty nginx" >> /etc/apt/sources.list is the exact line | 02:34 |
| Ben64 | is that what somsip said? ....nope | 02:34 |
| somsip | netameta: redirection does not inherit sudo. so "sudo echo ... > file" will not work | 02:34 |
| somsip | netameta: which is not what you pasted, and wont work anyway, as above | 02:34 |

| superguest | 16.04 (xenial) | 03:02 |
| somsip | superguest: and where did you copy that paste from? | 03:03 |
| superguest | it's a direct result of " blkid | nc termbin.com 9999" | 03:03 |
| Ben64 | `Zephyr: sudo nmap ntp.ubuntu.com -sU -p 123 -P0 | 03:04 |

| Ben64 | `Zephyr: looks like something is blocking it | 03:05 |
| superguest | the start job tried to locate the swapfile for 90 secs before timing out . | 03:06 |
| `Zephyr | Ben64: I don't know what, though. This is a relatively fresh install of 16.04 | 03:07 |
| somsip | superguest: have a read through the "Four-Step Process to Add Swap File" and make sure everything is as it should be, perhaps without creating a new file but that may be an option too https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq | 03:07 |
| superguest | somsip, yes. In fact, that's how I learned it. | 03:07 |
| Ben64 | `Zephyr: router, firewall, isp, something, who knows | 03:07 |
| somsip | superguest: has it every worked? | 03:07 |
| `Zephyr | So... basically I cannot have the correct time on ubuntu. | 03:07 |

| `Zephyr | mhalano: Yes. I do. | 03:08 |
| snkcld | mhalano: i was hoping to just use the vanilla kernel, though... but i may just use the ubuntu kernel for my host machine, and play around with kernel development inside a vm | 03:08 |
| superguest | somsip, the uuid was obtained from "blkid -s UUID -o value /var/local/512MiB.swap" | 03:08 |
| somsip | superguest: that's not what I'm asking. For example, I dont have write access to my /var/local and that's where your swap is located. That would cause a problem... | 03:08 |
| `Zephyr | I've been dual booting with windows for years. This is the first I've heard of a time sync problem. | 03:08 |
| Ben64 | `Zephyr: usually happens because windows likes setting the system time to local time, and linux likes UTC. this isn't related to that at all | 03:09 |
| somsip | superguest: also, that link I gave you doesnt say to do that so have you followed some instructions from elsewhere? | 03:09 |
| * jamesd hasn't dual booted in years... vmware/virtual box on modern hardware is good enough. | 03:09 | |
| `Zephyr | Ben64: Hmm. Actually, that would explain the difference. It is exactly 5.5 hours, the difference between UTC and Indian Standard Time. | 03:10 |
| mhalano | `Zephyr, I tried time.nist.gov and I can't get it. Try ntp.ubuntu.com | 03:10 |
| Ben64 | `Zephyr: oh i thought it wasn't since it wasn't an even amount of hours off | 03:10 |
| mhalano | `Zephyr, 5:30h | 03:10 |
| `Zephyr | Indian Standard Time is 5 and a half hours ahead of UTC | 03:10 |
| `Zephyr | mhalano: I am not sure how I am supposed to do that. | 03:11 |

| srir4m | huh | 03:15 |
| srir4m | well when i open a file...it does nothing... | 03:15 |
| mhalano | `Zephyr, very strange. May be you change the windows registry first or try hwclock command (as described in the link) | 03:16 |
| somsip | superguest: that's as maybe, but it's not working. So I would suggest using the file path in fstab not the uuid and seeing if it works. ie: do what it says in the article, get it working, then add a UUID if you prefer | 03:16 |
| superguest | somsip, yes it works on filepath. | 03:17 |
| `Zephyr | mhalano: Okay, so the gist here is that I want the time on my BIOS to be set as UTC? | 03:17 |
| `Zephyr | And it should actually be at the UTC time? | 03:17 |
| somsip | superguest: so it seems like something in using the uuid is wrong. | 03:18 |
| `Zephyr | I think I'll have to manually set the time on my bios to the current UTC time ( 3:08 am) | 03:18 |
| mhalano | `Zephyr, You could do this using hwclock command | 03:19 |
| mhalano | sudo hwclock --systohc --utc | 03:19 |
| `Zephyr | mhalano: Except it does not seem to work. | 03:19 |
| `Zephyr | Oh. Double dash. | 03:19 |
| `Zephyr | Well, wont that set my current time of 2:19 pm as UTC on my bios? That is woefully incorrect. | 03:20 |
| mhalano | `Zephyr, I had this problem either with dashes | 03:20 |
| mhalano | `Zephyr, when you execute 'sudo hwclock', what time is it? | 03:21 |
| `Zephyr | Wednesday 22 June 2016 02:21:40 PM IST .312164 seconds | 03:22 |
| `Zephyr | Which is neither the correct UTC time nor the IST time. | 03:22 |
| mhalano | `Zephyr, and what your BIOS time? | 03:22 |
| superguest | Ben64, the funny thing is, when you mkswap, it actually outputs an UUID for you to use upon completion. | 03:23 |
| `Zephyr | I don't know. I'd have to reboot to check, right? | 03:23 |
| mhalano | `Zephyr, Sure. | 03:23 |
| Ben64 | superguest: ok? | 03:23 |
| `Zephyr | mhalano: BIOS time was my local time (8:55 am). I manually set it to current UTC time. Now Ubuntu is showing me the correct time. | 03:26 |
| `Zephyr | But I reckon Windows will screw up next. So I have to do that registry edit? | 03:26 |
| mhalano | `Zephyr, Kudos for you :) | 03:28 |
| === USSR is now known as Poke95 | ||
| mhalano | `Zephyr, do the registry edit so Windows won't mess with time. | 03:28 |
| mhalano | You can use timedatectl command to see all system times. | 03:29 |
| mhalano | And this article is quite interesting: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/time | 03:29 |

| Kolusion | I use a VPN service for my internet. I am hoping to make it so when my connection to my VPN service drops out, my computer does not allow anymore network traffic in or out until it is connected to my VPN service again. In Windows 10 Home I was able to do this using the Windows Firewall. I was wondering if anybody knows if it can be done in Ubuntu's firewall 'ufw'? I have read in the manual for it something that looks like something I | 04:48 |
| Kolusion | I have read in the manual for it something that looks like something I may be able to use to do it. The manual indicates (to type this into Terminal): By default, ufw will apply rules to all available interfaces. To limit this, specify DIRECTION on INTERFACE, where DIRECTION is one of in or out (interface aliases are not supported). | 04:48 |
| Kolusion | I am confused because when I look at the connection information from the network icon in the top right hand corner of Ubuntu's desktop, there is no Interface for my VPN connection. Windows 10 Home treats VPN connections virtually as an interface, but it looks to me as though Ubuntu considers only physical interfaces as true. Can someone please help me with setting this up? | 04:48 |
| plop_its_ellie | Kolusion, whats happening? | 04:51 |
| plop_its_ellie | there should be an interface for your vpn | 04:51 |
| plop_its_ellie | for openvpn it should be something like tun0 | 04:52 |
| Kolusion | Not much, just sorting out some computer issues. How about yourself? | 04:52 |
| Kolusion | What is openvpn and tun0? | 04:52 |
| plop_its_ellie | Kolusion, so if you go into the terminal and type the command ifconfig | 04:53 |
| plop_its_ellie | it will list all your network interfaces | 04:53 |
| plop_its_ellie | when you use openvpn there will be an additional interface | 04:53 |
| plop_its_ellie | usually its tun0 | 04:53 |
| Kolusion | I had a look and I can't find tun0. | 04:55 |
| larsss | Kolusion: open terminal and type ifconfig | 04:56 |
| Kolusion | I have 'enp0s25', 'lo', 'ppp0' and 'wlxe8de27129b03'. | 04:57 |
| plop_its_ellie | Kolusion, are you using openvpn? | 04:57 |
| larsss | Kolusion: are you using PIA's client or Network Manager? | 04:57 |

| Kolusion | No, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. | 04:58 |

| Kolusion | larsss: I am using Network Manager. | 04:58 |
| larsss | Kolusion: which port for the openvpn connection | 05:00 |
| Kolusion | plop_its_ellie: That webpage you showed me mentioned this: "Set up routing such that the only route on eth0 is that to the VPN endpoint. Since there will be no route to the Internet without the VPN up, no programs will be able to connect.". Someone mentioned this to be on the Technical answer system, but my concern is that I use more than 1 VPN, and that I would have the hassle of needing to changing my interface gateway to a different | 05:02 |
| Kolusion | connect to a different VPN server. | 05:02 |
| Kolusion | I am hoping there is an easier way to do this. | 05:02 |
| plop_its_ellie | hmmmm, I dont have much experience with iptables | 05:03 |
| Kolusion | I don't know what iptables is, but thanks for your help anyway :) | 05:03 |
| plop_its_ellie | iptables is the firewall on linux | 05:04 |
| plop_its_ellie | you would have to set up some custom rules for your setup | 05:04 |
| Kolusion | Oh ok, I have the firewall ufw. | 05:04 |
| larsss | Kolusion: sudo ufw default deny outgoing, sudo ufw default deny incoming, sudo ufw allow out on tun0, sudo ufw allow out 1194/udp. | 05:05 |
| plop_its_ellie | ufw is basically a front end to iptables | 05:05 |
| plop_its_ellie | its suppose to be easier to interface with | 05:05 |
| Kolusion | Sorry larsss, I don't know what that means mate :\ | 05:05 |
| Kolusion | plop_its_ellie: What is a front end? | 05:06 |
| plop_its_ellie | Kolusion, basically it runs on top of iptables | 05:07 |
| larsss | Kolusion: https://gendersec.tacticaltech.org/wiki/index.php/Anonymising_your_traffic_with_linux#Punching_holes_in_ufw_for_a_VPN | 05:07 |
| plop_its_ellie | instead of using iptables directly, you can use ufw | 05:08 |
| Kolusion | I see. | 05:08 |
| Kolusion | Thanks larsss, I am looking at that webpage now, but I don't know what I am suppose to be reading. | 05:09 |
| larsss | Kolusion: it's strange that you don't have tun0 interface | 05:09 |
| Kolusion | Ow :\ | 05:10 |

| superguest | yes | 05:12 |
| Kolusion | You know larsss I am reading the section 'Punching holes in ufw for a VPN' on that page you sent me, and its sound similar to how I blocked non-VPN traffic in Windows 10 Home, so I think this is on the right track. | 05:13 |
| plop_its_ellie | superguest, what card are you using? | 05:14 |
| superguest | gtx 760 | 05:14 |
| plop_its_ellie | so you rebooted and then nothing? | 05:15 |
| plop_its_ellie | you get to the login screen? | 05:15 |
| superguest | yes. | 05:16 |
| superguest | I am in X, but no window manager. | 05:16 |
| plop_its_ellie | do you at least see the wallpaper | 05:16 |
| plop_its_ellie | oh ok | 05:17 |
| superguest | or so it seems; well, the only thing I have access to is the contextual menu ("right-click" | 05:17 |
| Kolusion | I think what I need to do is block all in and out traffic and then find out what my VPN 'adapter' is and use the command 'sudo ufw allow out on tun0 from any to any', where tun0 would be my VPN adapter. | 05:17 |

| plop_its_ellie | i've ran into that before, dont remember what i did tho, hope that link helps | 05:18 |
| Kolusion | I am on the right track. larsss you are fuckin Awesome! :) | 05:19 |
| larsss | Kolusion: your IP address seems like it is owned by Private Internet Access, are you connected to one of their Sydney VPN servers? | 05:19 |
| larsss | Kolusion: i'm currently connected to one of their Danish servers | 05:19 |
| Kolusion | It is. No, I am connected to their Melbourne server. | 05:20 |
| superguest | plop_its_ellie, thanks ellie. | 05:20 |
| Kolusion | How did you know I was connected to one of their servers? Is it from one of the names I listed before from what 'ifconfig' told me? | 05:21 |
| plop_its_ellie | hope it helps | 05:21 |
| plop_its_ellie | Kolusion, you can check peoples connection info in the irc chat | 05:21 |
| plop_its_ellie | with the whois command | 05:21 |
| Kolusion | Oh yeah. | 05:21 |

| zotherstupidguy | is there an offline translator for linux | 05:23 |
| zotherstupidguy | ? | 05:23 |
| plop_its_ellie | your brain xD | 05:23 |
| Kolusion | I think I can figure out which of these adapter names 'ifconfig' stated that is my VPN service, and then replace 'tun0' 'sudo ufw allow out on tun0 from any to any ' in my command. I am going to try it out now. If I disconnect I will have probably gotten it wrong. | 05:24 |
| Kolusion | I will be back though. | 05:24 |
| larsss | Kolusion: you will HAVE TO disconnect and reconnect | 05:25 |
| swedish | how do I retrieve my user password? | 05:36 |
| Kolusion | I had a problem. I used these commands and were unable to connect to any network: 'sudo ufw enable', 'sudo ufw default deny outgoing', 'sudo ufw default deny incoming', 'sudo ufw allow in on ppp0 from any to any', 'sudo ufw reload'. After things went wrong I turned the firewall off using 'sudo ufw disable'. What did I do wrong? | 05:39 |

| Kolusion | I think I might know what the problem is. As I have denied other adapters, Ubuntu is unable to DNS resolve the VPN address to an IP address, which is why it can't connect. Hmmm can anyone think of any suggestions to fix this? I am thinking of finding out which ports DNS uses and then allowing that only to my VPN address (if this can be done). | 05:59 |
| Gallomimia | netameta: reserved space for root? | 06:00 |
| KyleRasp | open_coder? | 06:00 |
| Gallomimia | Kolusion: dns is udp 53 | 06:00 |
| netameta | Gallomimia, I dont know it was 7.8 7.8 i just deleted 200mb and the available is still 0 ? | 06:00 |
| netameta | this doesnt make much sense | 06:00 |
| netameta | is there a trash can ? | 06:01 |
| larsss | Kolusion: you'll have to disable firewall, connect to the vpn, then enable firewall | 06:01 |
| Kolusion | Thanks Gallomimia! | 06:01 |
| Kolusion | Yes larsss! You are right, and I remember having this problem in Windows 10 Home too. This webpage you gave me is great, it addresses this issue too. | 06:01 |
| Gallomimia | netameta: reserved space for root means that only root gets to use the remaining 5% of the drive. or whatever you set it to at format time. it's reserved so that when it fills up, root can still access the system and run commands to free up space | 06:02 |
| Gallomimia | mocxz: hello and welcome | 06:02 |
| netameta | Gallomimia, I am on root right now | 06:02 |
| KyleRasp | hey larsss it sounds like you could help me out | 06:02 |
| open_coder | try wired connection KyleRasp | 06:02 |
| netameta | Gallomimia, Is there a way to check how much each file takes ? or a good way to clean up system ? | 06:02 |
| Gallomimia | there is. it's kinda slow. it's called du | 06:03 |
| Gallomimia | similar flags to df | 06:03 |
| Gallomimia | well, if your disk is only 8g it won't take terribly long | 06:03 |
| Gallomimia | it recurses thru every directory and adds up the sizes | 06:03 |
| netameta | How do i do that ? | 06:04 |
| Gallomimia | i like to do something like du -h -d 2 | 06:04 |
| Gallomimia | which means | 06:04 |
| Kolusion | THIS! command seems to be the answer 'sudo ufw allow out from any to [VPN server IP address]'. My concern is, can I use a FQDN instead of the VPN server IP address? | 06:04 |
| Gallomimia | human readable | 06:04 |
| Gallomimia | and depth of 2 | 06:04 |
| Gallomimia | then i can ignore the stuff that's small and do it again in a big dir | 06:04 |
| Gallomimia | also, try apt-get autoremove | 06:04 |
| netameta | Trued autoremove and clear | 06:04 |
| netameta | tried* | 06:04 |
| Gallomimia | autoclean? | 06:04 |
| Gallomimia | that's another one. it's different | 06:05 |
| Gallomimia | i think it removes cached files and intermediates from the apt system | 06:05 |
| de-facto | netameta you can try something like "sudo du -a /var | sort -n -r | head -n 10 " for listing the 10 biggest in /var (or other dirs) | 06:05 |
| Gallomimia | 8g is a pretty small disk to have your system on. does it contain /home and all that too? | 06:06 |
| Gallomimia | it just big enough to work comfortably. you'll need to keep on top of clearing out old files tho | 06:06 |
| Gallomimia | xvda1 what kind of device is this? | 06:06 |
| D10C4n3 | dio cane | 06:06 |
| netameta | Gallomimia, yea i know its small, and yes it does, xvda1 its a ec2 system | 06:07 |
| Gallomimia | ah i see | 06:07 |
| Gallomimia | yeah. you can attach other block storage devices to use as a data drive | 06:07 |
| Gallomimia | remember, once you spin down the instance, its main disk is usually deleted | 06:08 |
| netameta | I am going to increare the disk yea but i want to know what keep increasing | 06:08 |
| Gallomimia | possibly just /var/log | 06:08 |
| Gallomimia | get an ls -h of that dir | 06:08 |
| Gallomimia | and maybe throw in an l for checking timestamps | 06:09 |
| de-facto | netameta you also can wipe the package cache (it downloads packages and caches them) with "sudo apt-get clean" | 06:09 |
| netameta | de-facto, tried that - thats nice is there a way to make the numbers more friendly ? | 06:09 |
| Gallomimia | add -h to commands like ls du and df | 06:09 |
| Kolusion | larsss: Can I use a FQDN in place of [VPN server IP address] in this command 'sudo ufw allow out from any to [VPN server IP address]'? My VPN gateway is a FQDN. | 06:10 |
| Gallomimia | "human readable" | 06:10 |
| de-facto | netameta i guess you can use the "-h" flag, but im not sure if sorting works then | 06:10 |
| Gallomimia | no it doesn't | 06:10 |
| Gallomimia | so you can use two commands. sort to find which is largest. then use a human readable version on just the ones you're interested in | 06:11 |
| hateball | netameta: you can run "du -sh /*" for a friendlier overview of what top dir takes most space | 06:11 |
| hateball | netameta: check /boot for old kernels for instance, remove by running "sudo apt-get autoremove" | 06:11 |
| Gallomimia | the s means silent, which is the same as -d 0 "depth zero" | 06:11 |
| netameta | sudo apt-get autoremove done, sudo apt-get clean done @ de-facto | 06:12 |
| Gallomimia | netameta: what all are you using this instance for? webserver? database? it's likely something like that gobbling up space with its logs | 06:12 |
| netameta | Gallomimia, its a wordpress site | 06:12 |
| hadleigh | w of a good program to burns dvd to hard drive | 06:12 |
| hadleigh | does anyone know | 06:13 |
| Gallomimia | hadleigh: the easiest is dd | 06:13 |
| Gallomimia | i don't know how to mount the image after | 06:13 |
| hadleigh | cheers gallmimia | 06:13 |
| Gallomimia | but you do: dd if=/dev/mycdrom of=/a/path/to/a/file.img | 06:13 |
| larsss | Kolusion: trial and error i guess :-P i don't know for sure | 06:14 |
| Gallomimia | you'll need to know the proper name of the device (probably partition) and set where you want it to go | 06:14 |
| Kolusion | larsss: Thats all good. Thanks anyway. | 06:14 |
| hateball | Gallomimia: then you can mount with "mount -o loop /path/to/iso.img /path/to/mount" | 06:14 |
| Gallomimia | great thanks | 06:14 |
| open_coder | o | 06:15 |
| hateball | I think perhaps Nautilus has a rightclick option for this as well | 06:15 |
| Gallomimia | i gotta write that down | 06:15 |
| Kolusion | larsss: When I enable this firewall with a VPN connection established I can't view websites anymore. What could be causing this? This is my firewall status 'Status: active To Action From -- ------ ---- Anywhere on ppp0 ALLOW Anywhere Anywhere (v6) on ppp0 ALLOW Anywhere (v6)'. | 06:15 |
| Gallomimia | Kolusion: i bet it's dns. test with some host lookups | 06:16 |
| Kolusion | larsss: The adapter 'ppp0' is my VPN adapter. | 06:16 |
| Kolusion | Gallomimia: How could this be because the DNS lookups are made through the DNS (I would think?)? | 06:16 |
| Gallomimia | i tried mucking with a VPN on a system. i wanted it to only use the vpn for torrents, but it would do everything. and the dns stopped working | 06:16 |
| larsss | Kolusion: ppp0 is the point to point protocol | 06:17 |
| larsss | Kolusion: is ubuntu your host or in a vm? | 06:17 |
| Kolusion | I MEAN made through the VPN | 06:17 |
| Gallomimia | DNS goes thru a vpn too | 06:17 |
| Gallomimia | and if your dns is set to your ISP's, your isp might not allow connections from outside its network | 06:17 |
| Gallomimia | this causes your lookup to hang, and timeout | 06:17 |
| de-facto | how about running a loval unbound or such? you also can enable dnssec then i guess | 06:18 |
| Kolusion | larsss: I matched the IP addresses of the adapters listed by 'ifconfig' and matched the IP address of the VPN in Network Manager Connection information. That's what I used that adapter in my firewall settings to allow it. Did I do it wrong? | 06:18 |
| Kolusion | larsss: What does a host or vm mean? | 06:18 |
| Gallomimia | guess he's not using that | 06:19 |
| Kolusion | I installed it directly onto my hard drive if thats what you mean, not in like VMWare in Windows. | 06:19 |
| Kolusion | Gallomimia: You might be right about the DNS because when I enable the firewall, this chat still works. | 06:20 |
| Kolusion | I am going to go away and do some trial and erroring. Before I do, could someone please tell me how to clear an entry made in the firewall ufw? | 06:21 |
| netameta | This is crazy i keep deleting stuff but the available space wont go a wya | 06:21 |
| netameta | if its saved for root, how comes it got filled up in first place | 06:22 |
| Kolusion | Ok I am going away and trying it. I am wasting too much time on computers. | 06:22 |
| Kolusion | Thanks guys I will be back another time. | 06:23 |
| Triffid_Hunter | netameta: the data in a file doesn't get cleared until 1) all hard links to the data are deleted, and 2) any processes with an open filehandle on the file close the fh or exit | 06:23 |
| larsss | Kolusion: sudo ufw reset goes back to default settings | 06:23 |
| Kolusion | Thanks larsss. This command will save my life :P | 06:23 |
| Triffid_Hunter | netameta: it's quite different to windows where you can't delete a file that's in use, and I think it's only recently supported hard links properly | 06:23 |
| Triffid_Hunter | netameta: "lsof" may help you find processes with open handles on things you want to clear | 06:23 |
| somsip | netameta: what stuff are you deleting? | 06:24 |
| netameta | somsip, log files and stuff i dont use | 06:25 |
| netameta | Triffid_Hunter, will reboot help ? | 06:25 |
| Akrizalp | do you speak indonesian? | 06:25 |
| somsip | netameta: details would help understand why you are seeing no difference in free space | 06:25 |
| netameta | somsip, /var/log was 40mb | 06:26 |
| somsip | netameta: that' | 06:26 |
| netameta | some files in /var/www/myProjects | 06:26 |
| Triffid_Hunter | netameta: well that's a somewhat extreme way to close processes with open filehandles on your files of interest; if that's what's preventing the space being cleared then yes it'll help but so would closing the process, or possibly simply HUPing it in the case of daemons writing logs | 06:26 |
| somsip | netameta: that's not really very big | 06:26 |
| netameta | thats was around 1 giga | 06:26 |
| Triffid_Hunter | netameta: logs? oh yeah, daemons keep an open FH on their log, usually they'll reopen if you HUP which is what logrotate does | 06:26 |
| Triffid_Hunter | netameta: one of the interesting abilities of this aspect of the linux FS is that you can rename files that a program is using and nothing bad happens until/unless the program tries to re-open the file under the same name | 06:27 |
| netameta | I see | 06:28 |
| Triffid_Hunter | netameta: best solution for keeping /var/log under control is installing logrotate (or similar, there's a few I think) and ensuring that it's set up properly.. most popular daemons come with logrotate profiles I think, perhaps logrotate itself comes with them | 06:29 |
| netameta | does /tmp usually hold important stuff ? | 06:30 |
| netameta | Its taking 600mb | 06:30 |
| netameta | Ahh | 06:30 |
| netameta | crazy | 06:30 |
| Triffid_Hunter | netameta: no, but expect weirdness if you delete stuff in there while your system is running normally. I often mount a tmpfs over that if I have spare ram.. mine's 200k | 06:31 |
| netameta | Found out what took all the space | 06:33 |
| hateball | netameta: if you run a webserver/service it's not that unusual with large /tmp usage | 06:33 |
| netameta | after i deleted the 500mb now i have some available space | 06:33 |
| netameta | hateball, It was node.js temp files | 06:34 |
| netameta | Which also solved my cookies/session problem | 06:35 |
| netameta | awesome ! | 06:35 |

| Kolusion | larsss: The IP address 'DST' is refering to is indeed my VPN's DNS server, which explains why I can't view websites. | 06:49 |
| larsss | Kolusion: can you post the output of ifconfig on https://paste.ubuntu.com | 06:49 |
| Kolusion | larsss: Sure. https://paste.ubuntu.com/17683346/ | 06:51 |
| larsss | Kolusion: so from before, Private Internet Access is your VPN provider and you're using network-manager to connect? | 06:52 |
| Kolusion | larsss: Yes, and the IP address for 'inet addr' for the adapter 'ppp0' from the output of 'ifconfig' matches the IP address which is listed for my VPN in 'Connection information' in the network icon in the top right hand corner of Ubuntu. | 06:53 |
| Kolusion | larsss: That's why I used the ufw command: sudo ufw allow in on ppp0 from any to any | 06:54 |
| Kolusion | larsss: But System Log is telling me ufw is blocking it. | 06:55 |

| Kolusion | larsss: I feel better that it being setup on the operating system level as well, without depending on a third party application. | 06:57 |

| larsss | Kolusion: https://torrentfreak.com/vpn-providers-no-logging-claims-tested-in-fbi-case-160312 | 06:59 |
| larsss | Kolusion: before connecting to a PIA VPN through their client on 14.04 i make sure my firewall is enabled with my custom rules i created as follows: sudo ufw default deny outgoing, sudo ufw default deny incoming, sudo ufw allow out on tun0, sudo ufw allow out 1194/udp. this will... block all traffic in and out on every single port and only allow traffic out on the VPN interface using a specific port and protocol. if you get disconnected from the vpn server, | 07:00 |
| larsss | all traffic is blocked because of the aforementioned default deny outgoing. flawless dns leak protection | 07:00 |
| larsss | Kolusion: the single packet sent to the vpn server to initiate the vpn connection is established on openvpn port 1194 (not DNS-Port53) but if you cannot get connected how i can, you will need to disable your firewall, connect to the vpn server then enable your firewall | 07:00 |

| geno | hello :) | 07:44 |
| === the_ktosiek is now known as ktosiek | ||
| geno | i'm new to ubuntu, I just installed it on my old laptop .. I'm trying to figure out how to enable the wifi | 07:45 |
| geno | .. my laptop is an Acer Aspire 5050, those are genertic info about it: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/1fcbfc4364c104fc1f436570a4ff1d53 | 07:46 |
| ikonia | geno: the first thing is, is your wifi card supported | 07:46 |
| geno | ikonia, I think so those are other info, my /etc/network/interfaces looks like https://gist.github.com/a4bf6b77934e75b3ebce2f4df3ee48e3 | 07:49 |
| ikonia | geno: you shouldn't be using the interface file | 07:50 |
| ikonia | geno: network manager in the top right hand corner of your desktop will be used to configure your network cards | 07:50 |
| geno | while this is the output of 'ifconfig -a' : https://gist.github.com/4010cb88ef888c2c68fdc11cd393ca7f | 07:50 |
| geno | ikonia , i tried the network manager but there is no wifi listed there | 07:51 |
| ikonia | geno: so that goes back to is your card supported | 07:51 |
| ikonia | as if it can't see it as a device, it's not supported and it's either a.) going to need additional configuration to make it available b.) not supported and never will be supported | 07:51 |
| geno | this laptop has a hardware switch (to set the wifi on off) when i switch it on/off i csn see in the network manager something changes | 07:52 |
| geno | like a airplain icon appear | 07:52 |
| geno | i guess when it is turned off | 07:53 |
| ikonia | geno: yes, because you are using the kill switch | 07:53 |
| geno | ikonia, does this means .. the card is supported? | 07:53 |
| ikonia | no | 07:53 |
| ikonia | this means you've flicked the kill switch | 07:53 |
| geno | oh .. I see, what should I try to see if it is supported or not? | 07:54 |
| ikonia | geno: research the chipset on the card to check it's linux support | 07:54 |
| vbotka | geno, you might want to check the killswitch status from the command line with "sudo rfkill list all" | 07:55 |
| DANtheBEASTman | hi, so, i seem to have broken some things installing openjdk-9.. i uninstalled it, and installed default-{jdk,jre}{,-headless}, but now i have no java command. `sudo update-alternatives --config java` tells me "There is only one alternative in link group java (providing /usr/bin/java): /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64/bin/java" but that file doesn't exist anymore, it's now version 8 that's available | 07:55 |

| DANtheBEASTman | repos | 07:56 |
| ikonia | DANtheBEASTman: certainly not the ubuntu repos it would sem | 07:56 |

| somsip | mihael_k33hl: do you *need* 9.21 or will 9.19 suffice? In the repos under a slightly different name | 08:03 |
| mihael_k33hl | yeah, but I want to install 9.21 not 9.19 | 08:03 |
| mihael_k33hl | somsip, I need 9.21, a lot of changes in 9.21 | 08:03 |
| DANtheBEASTman | it's a shame backporting packages isn't as easy on ubuntu as it is debian | 08:04 |
| DANtheBEASTman | personally i'd just as soon upgrade the whole distro than deal with trying to backport | 08:05 |
| mihael_k33hl | I am currently using Ubuntu 14.04 on my workstation and I'm trying to configure urxvt for my laptop which I'm planning to install 16.04. Hence, I'm preparing all configuration file so I need 9.21 since 16.04 uses 9.21 | 08:05 |
| DANtheBEASTman | a lot of good changes in 16.04 ;) | 08:05 |
| DANtheBEASTman | mihael_k33hl :: wait i'm confused, why bother with all that if you're planning to upgrade? | 08:06 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, I'm using two systems | 08:07 |
| DANtheBEASTman | sure, i have a few boxes around running different distros. just upgraded my gfs laptop from 14.04 to 16.04 last week | 08:08 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, yeah I should just update both of them, is there a way to update from 14.04 to 16.04 directly without the hassle of incremental updates from 14.04 to 14.10, 14.10 to 15.04? | 08:08 |
| DANtheBEASTman | personally i just grab the 16.04 iso and do a fresh install | 08:08 |
| ducasse | !ltsupgrade | mihael_k33hl | 08:09 |
| ubottu | mihael_k33hl: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. | 08:09 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, can't do that on my workstation a tons of files I haven't organized lol | 08:09 |
| DANtheBEASTman | you don't have a separate /home partition? | 08:09 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, nope just a monolithic / partition | 08:09 |
| DANtheBEASTman | ouch | 08:10 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, didn't really bother with having separate partitions, didn't care back then I deemed it necessary, now I'm regretting it | 08:10 |
| mihael_k33hl | lol | 08:10 |
| mihael_k33hl | unncessary* | 08:10 |
| Triffid_Hunter | I have a mono / too, I've tried multiple partition layout so many times and always end up having the massive hassle of reassigning space, usually with a forest of symlinks | 08:10 |
| DANtheBEASTman | lvm is handy here | 08:11 |
| Triffid_Hunter | maybe next time I install I can use btrfs and quotas or something like that | 08:11 |
| mihael_k33hl | ducasse, So I need to wait until July 21st lol | 08:11 |
| mihael_k33hl | anyone using a wm instead of a full blown desktop environment? | 08:11 |
| Triffid_Hunter | DANtheBEASTman: LVM is all well and good, been down that road, still a pita to move space since filesystems need to be resized and suchforth | 08:11 |
| ducasse | mihael_k33hl: well, you _can_ do it now, it's just not a supported upgrade path until then aiui. | 08:12 |
| DANtheBEASTman | mihael_k33hl :: i use awesomewm instead of a de | 08:12 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, that's what I'm planning to use too. That's why I'm configuring rxvt-unicode-256color | 08:12 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, and familiarizing myself with vim and tmux hehe | 08:13 |
| DANtheBEASTman | what features are you missing from 9.19 that aren't in 9.21 ? | 08:13 |
| DANtheBEASTman | can't say i noticed any differences in the different versions | 08:13 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, 9.20 supports copy/paste by default, and 9.21 uses a new matchers that makes url-select deprecated | 08:13 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, mind sharing with me your urxvc config file? :D | 08:14 |
| DANtheBEASTman | ah. personally i use tmux exclusively, and use copy-mode in tmux | 08:14 |
| DANtheBEASTman | i have no config for urxvt, just some colors in Xresources | 08:14 |
| DANtheBEASTman | actually i lie, i have a neat font-resize script | 08:14 |
| DANtheBEASTman | https://github.com/danielfgray/dotfiles/blob/master/Xresources https://github.com/majutsushi/urxvt-font-size | 08:15 |
| DANtheBEASTman | but if you're going for tmux i'd recommend just using that over anything urxvt has | 08:15 |
| DANtheBEASTman | *especially* the tabs script for urxvtt | 08:16 |
| DANtheBEASTman | tmux is superior in that regard, imo | 08:16 |
| ikonia | I don't understand your process | 08:16 |
| ikonia | 1.) upgrade | 08:17 |
| ikonia | 2.) install the version for that distro | 08:17 |
| ikonia | 3.) configure it | 08:17 |
| ikonia | trying to install the wrong version on 14.04 so you can pre-configure for the 16.04 upgrade just seem not thought through | 08:17 |
| DANtheBEASTman | can't help but agree ^ | 08:17 |
| moveax | why ubuntu may not use swap at all? | 08:19 |
| ikonia | moveax: it uses it if it needs it | 08:19 |
| moveax | ikonia: it always 0, is it ok? | 08:20 |
| DANtheBEASTman | iiuc, swap is usually there for when you're low on RAM | 08:20 |
| ikonia | moveax: if it doesn't need it - it won't use it | 08:20 |
| moveax | oh, got it, thx | 08:20 |
| DANtheBEASTman | these days with GBs of unused ram it's rarely necessary | 08:20 |
| === notsetkeh is now known as setkeh | ||
| Triffid_Hunter | moveax: windows is the only OS I know that can't handle having no swap even if there's ample ram | 08:22 |
| mihael_k33hl | ikonia, basically, I have a workstation(desktop) and a laptop. On my workstation I have Ubuntu 14.04 installed, and I'm currently using it to configure awesome wm, urxvt, vim, tmux. Once that is done, I will then install Ubuntu 16.04(minimal) on my laptop. Hence, I'm trying to have application to have the same version on my workstation | 08:23 |
| ikonia | Triffid_Hunter: windows handles no swap just fine | 08:23 |
| ikonia | mihael_k33hl: upgrade them both to run the same version | 08:23 |
| DANtheBEASTman | mihael_k33hl :: but why are you "pre-configuring" before updating | 08:23 |
| ikonia | mihael_k33hl: keep it simple | 08:23 |
| === WildSoft_ is now known as WildSoft | ||
| de-facto | DANtheBEASTman i would not say that, RAM is very expensive still compared to hdd space | 08:23 |
| mihael_k33hl | ikonia, I didn't want to go through that hassle initially, I thought installing version 9.21 would be a piece of cake | 08:24 |
| ikonia | mihael_k33hl: didn't really do your research then | 08:24 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, oh I'm not planning to update the Ubuntu version on my workstation | 08:24 |
| ikonia | mihael_k33hl: which means even more you should keep it simple and upgrade them both | 08:24 |
| mihael_k33hl | ikonia, i guess you can say that | 08:24 |
| DANtheBEASTman | de-facto :: oh i'm not saying ram is inexpensive, just that it's not uncommon these days to see GBs of unused ram | 08:24 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, so you're using urxvt 9.21 right? | 08:25 |
| DANtheBEASTman | mihael_k33hl :: honestly i think trying to upgrade to 9.21 will cause you much more pain than it's worth | 08:25 |
| DANtheBEASTman | mihael_k33hl :: on 16.04 yes | 08:25 |
| mihael_k33hl | DANtheBEASTman, yeah I can see in your config file, you're using matcher and no perl-ext for copy/paste | 08:25 |
| de-facto | DANtheBEASTman especially if you rent servers from a provider say a VPS or such, they just give you a few GB of ram and lots of HDD storage space. then swap really makes sense (as long as IO-wait does not go too high) | 08:26 |
| mihael_k33hl | I'll go ahead and update my workstation then | 08:26 |
| DANtheBEASTman | de-facto :: quite true | 08:27 |

| k1l_ | Ubuntivity: well, you need to make sure its only shipped to your country. there is a reason why big distros dont ship that included but load it afterwards | 09:57 |
| Ubuntivity | k1l_: doesn't Linux Mint ships that to everywhere in the world?? | 09:58 |
| k1l_ | Ubuntivity: yes, i dont know why they are not suit for that so far. | 09:58 |

| Ubuntivity | k1l_: I want to ship it online, but it is country-specific distro | 09:59 |

| samgoody | but git claims that nothing was deleted | 10:59 |
| samgoody | and besides, I can see that the duplicated data is still in both directories. Does it delete dup data, or just make a script or smething? | 11:00 |

| notadeveloper | hmm sam goody huh | 11:03 |
| YankDownUnder | nixfox, Could be heaps of reasons. Best option is always to start everything from a "cold boot" - meaning, the machine turned off, then booted to the liveUSB/CD/DVD, then after getting to the desktop, initiating the installation...just "to be sure, to be sure" as it were... | 11:04 |
| samgoody | I RTFM'd, but was in a different dir than I though I was | 11:04 |
| samgoody | sorry, nm with my non-relevant question | 11:04 |
| satyanash | Hi, does rsync have an output control flag to only print the total transfer summary without individual file names? The -q option supresses all non-error output, which is something I don't want. | 11:04 |
| Goeland86 | question: my CPU's heating up more than I expected, and looking into it, I see I'm missing the ondemand cpufreq governor... Did I miss something in kernel updates that disables it, or what? Running 16.04 | 11:05 |
| nixfox | YankDownUnder, I did jsut that | 11:05 |
| nixfox | booted from usb | 11:05 |
| YankDownUnder | nixfox, Just a quick question - at what point is it hanging in the installation - right at the beginning? At choosing languages? Partitioning? | 11:05 |
| House | satyanash : what rsync options are you using? a simple `rsync -a --stats from/ to/` gives no file listing | 11:07 |
| nixfox | after the part where you can pick download updated while installing and install 3rd party software | 11:08 |
| nixfox | YankDownUnder, I think if I remember correcly that's before partitioning | 11:08 |
| nixfox | I'm using Arch on my home PC, trying to install ubuntu on my work pc | 11:08 |
| nixfox | but it does not want to collab with me ;) | 11:08 |
| === dreamon_ is now known as dreamon | ||
| YankDownUnder | nixfox, Not sure I understand where you're going with all of that - but, back to the installation - have you tried doing the install without doing the "download updates and free pizzas and 3d party software" to see if that got any further? | 11:09 |
| nixfox | I was going to say the difference between the machines is, one is UEFI the other not | 11:10 |
| satyanash | House: thnx | 11:10 |
| nixfox | I have not ticked any of those options | 11:10 |
| YankDownUnder | nixfox, And it's safe to assume that the disk you're installing to (whatever) has been checked for errors or isn't a Windows 10 partition/drive? | 11:11 |
| nixfox | yes | 11:11 |
| nixfox | Also just now I got a pop-up saying that the installation wants to force uefi mode but the previous OS was installed in legacy mode | 11:11 |
| nixfox | Forcing uefi can lead to not being able to access the other OS | 11:11 |
| YankDownUnder | Is there another OS on the drive? If so, well, "common sense" should prevail... | 11:12 |

| rantic_ | who: Hi | 13:32 |
| who | can you tell me where I can find xchat | 13:33 |
| rantic_ | who: It's in the repositories, you can sudo apt-get install xchat | 13:33 |
| BluesKaj | who, hexchat is the way to go, xchat is old and not supported | 13:33 |
| rantic_ | who: However its been out of development for awhile. I'd suggest Hexchat through a PPA | 13:34 |
| who | thank you | 13:34 |
| who | is ther any terminal irc clients are available | 13:34 |
| Pici | who: irssi and weechat | 13:34 |
| rantic_ | who: The most common and approachable would be weechat | 13:34 |

| rantic_ | k1l_: yeah I just noticed. I mentioned the PPA because it wasn't in the repos for 14.04 and earlier | 13:38 |

| blut | swati_27: your socket is local | 13:55 |
| blut | swati_27: not global | 13:55 |
| swati_27 | blut: and how to fix this?? | 13:55 |
| blut | swati_27: Version: '10.0.25-MariaDB-0ubuntu0.16.04.1' socket: '/home/swati/.loca | 13:55 |

| blut | I don't know. | 13:56 |
| swati_27 | blut: right... | 13:56 |
| rantic_ | dreamy_: Did it work to begin with? | 13:56 |
| blut | swati_27: I mean I don't use mysql. But you probably configured your daemon | 13:57 |
| dreamy_ | rantic_, i need to load a sound module to listen to mp3 | 13:57 |
| rantic_ | blut: He didn't even know how to start MySQL, any configuration he's done was watching a youtube tutorial or something | 13:57 |
| blut | swati_27: the manpage tells you how to use --socket | 13:57 |
| rantic_ | dreamy_: You didn't answer my question | 13:57 |
| swati_27 | blut: yes, changed the socket location in .cnf files | 13:57 |
| dreamy_ | i didnt unerstamded it | 13:57 |
| blut | swati_27: Again, I don't use mysql. But apparently you can do something like 'mysql --socket=/path/to/socket' | 13:58 |

| GnomeKris | Should I switch to Unity? Or stick with Gnome? It seems like a lot of the Gnome gui is missing things that Unity has already pretty well perfected. Like the printer dialogue. | 14:15 |

| GnomeKris | make my own decision. | 14:16 |
| christian_ | I installed 3.19 because I wanted to use the Mesa 3D Drivers present in that kernel (Ubuntu Vivid) for gaming in wine | 14:16 |
| EriC^^ | you go girl | 14:16 |
| christian_ | I noticed that when running updates, kernel 3.13 still receives updates | 14:17 |
| BluesKaj | GnomeKris, DEs are mosty a personal decision | 14:17 |
| EriC^^ | christian_: remove linux-image-generic and linux-headers-generic and leave put the lts generic instead so you get updates on 3.19 | 14:18 |
| christian_ | no no Eric I want to keep kernel 3.19 and keep 3.13 kernel for its security updates | 14:19 |
| christian_ | 3.19 for its drivers and 3.13 for system security | 14:19 |
| EriC^^ | christian_: ok, i think i missed some of the conversation before joining, nevermind :D | 14:20 |

| virus | hello | 15:44 |
| Skinkitten | OerHeks: to get to my main point here, How can I learn the ubuntu system? | 15:44 |
| tgm4883 | Skinkitten: that's an overly broad question. What do you want to learn about? | 15:45 |
| OerHeks | Skinkitten, there might be light changes, not that much to make your experience worthless | 15:45 |
| SchrodingersScat | Skinkitten: just pointless to roll any new 15.10 machines right now. If you have a 15.10 currently you should be checking on upgrading. | 15:45 |
| Skinkitten | OerHeks: I want to be on-boarded with the penguin but I keep getting difficulty with the terminal | 15:45 |
| OerHeks | Skinkitten, so start to use it and read our wikipages and so on | 15:45 |
| Skinkitten | may to rephrase my main question, what are the resources to learn ubuntu? | 15:46 |
| tgm4883 | Skinkitten: well if you're looking for a book, you could get the "Official Ubuntu Book" | 15:48 |
| Broseidon | hmm I remember reading Ubuntu Manual and then The Linux Command Line skinkitten | 15:48 |
| tgm4883 | https://www.amazon.com/Official-Ubuntu-Book-8th/dp/013390539X | 15:48 |
| SchrodingersScat | Skinkitten: the internet, #ubuntu, other users | 15:48 |
| OerHeks | https://help.ubuntu.com/15.10/ubuntu-help/index.html | 15:49 |
| tgm4883 | Skinkitten: although IMO the best way is to think about what you are trying to accomplish then start researching that (via google searches, wiki pages, etc) until you've accomplished that goal. Then figure out something else you want to do | 15:49 |

| Skinkitten | tgm4883: is there another linux distro simpler than the ubuntu? | 15:53 |
| tgm4883 | Skinkitten: IMO, no | 15:53 |
| tgm4883 | Skinkitten: but you haven't really stated what you are trying to accomplish | 15:54 |
| OerHeks | impatience is a bug, you need to fix that yourself | 15:54 |
| Broseidon | skinkitten there is no huge difference between distros that you'll notice at all as a beginner IMO outside of finding a desktop environment you can deal with | 15:54 |
| craptalk | Skinkitten: what you mean by simple? | 15:55 |
| Broseidon | I usually install ubuntu with cinnamon desktop for newbies, my mother uses that. | 15:55 |
| CodeMouse92 | Puppy Linux is pretty dead simple, but it isn't quite as feature-rich (and it runs as root, so don't let the newbies play with the terminal) | 15:56 |

| nacc | Skinkitten: this seems like a better question for #linux or #ubuntu-offtopic | 15:58 |
| tgm4883 | Skinkitten: free or Free? | 15:58 |
| Broseidon | Not sure I understand that question, but remember you are asking in the ubuntu support channel | 15:58 |
| tgm4883 | Broseidon: well he mentioned he was trying to do something specific but getting frustrated. So it doesn't seem he's just "trying out" linux | 15:59 |
| Arthur_D2 | Oracle's Linux is probably least free | 15:59 |
| Broseidon | tgm4883 ah didn't see that :P. Who knows | 15:59 |
| Broseidon | skinkitten join the channel #linux and ask there if you want to discuss distros, we're supposed to be talking ubuntu questions here | 15:59 |

| mumbles | Pici, great, gonna check that out - merci to you | 16:52 |
| Guest57378 | check if the dirs are 1:1 and if something is missing terminal will report so. | 16:52 |

| OerHeks | Janis, xampp ... sure, if you don't clean it up, it is easy to login. we don't support xampp, lamp only | 17:00 |
| backbox_ | hello ? | 17:00 |
| Janis | Yeah I'm done with xampp because of that (it was on windows) but if I install ubuntu desktop and apache, will that be safe to use to run a site? | 17:01 |
| backbox_ | any body here | 17:01 |
| Janis | And be secure? | 17:01 |
| backbox_ | any one ? | 17:02 |
| mumbles | backbox_ hi there, let me tell you that most irc users are kind of "efficency oriented" so if you have a question, just ask | 17:03 |
| Janis | I'm here | 17:03 |
| OerHeks | Janis, standard it is not that secure, tons of sites with tips https://www.unixmen.com/ways-to-secure-your-ubuntu-14-04-server-running-lamp/ http://tecadmin.net/security-tips-for-lamp-stack-on-linux/ | 17:03 |
| backbox_ | can i get to know you ? | 17:03 |
| Janis | Ok thank you! | 17:03 |

| backbox_ | mmmm ok sorry , can i learn from you about linux and Ubuntu ? | 17:05 |
| backbox_ | nn i will stay if it's ok i really would love to learn about linux and ubuntu | 17:05 |

| Rocketeer99 | Does SANE support network printers that are just plugged into ethernet on the local network? I'm having a bit of a hard time connecting one | 17:21 |
| kaivnit | you type htop | 17:21 |
| Rocketeer99 | sane-find-scanner just looks for usb scanners as far as I can tell and didn't find my network scanner - I did verify net wasn't commented out in the .conf | 17:22 |
| Walex | Rocketeer99: Avahi maybe. In the case of an HP MFP it is the MFP driver/daemon from HP that configures SANE appropriately. | 17:23 |
| Rocketeer99 | @Walex It's a combo brother printer and scanner and printing works fine | 17:24 |

| nacc | !repositories | hihi | 17:32 |
| ubottu | hihi: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. | 17:32 |
| Rocketeer99 | @d08z try trunning "gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.background active true" in a terminal | 17:32 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: yes, that worked but i still dont have the option on the right click menu | 17:33 |
| Rocketeer99 | @d08z what did that do exactly? | 17:33 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: now i can see a wallpaper instead of a black background | 17:34 |
| Rocketeer99 | @d08z did you install gnome shell anytime in the past? | 17:34 |
| d08z | yes | 17:35 |
| d08z | why | 17:35 |
| Rocketeer99 | Ahhh ok cool is gnome-tweak-tool or ubuntu-tweak-tool installed? | 17:35 |
| d08z | both, yes | 17:35 |
| Tameiki | Rocketeer99, It's Unity Tweak Tool, not Ubuntu Tweak Tool. | 17:36 |
| Rocketeer99 | @d08z installing gnome desktop has a bug where it prevents nautilus from handling the desktop | 17:36 |
| d08z | oh | 17:36 |
| Rocketeer99 | So try going into gnome tweak tool and there should be an option to let nautilus handle the desktop | 17:37 |
| Paddy_NI | Is there anywhere to view the "notify-osd" history? | 17:37 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: no there is not | 17:37 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: should i look in unity-tweak-tools instead? | 17:37 |
| Rocketeer99 | Give it a try | 17:38 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: is there a terminal command i could type | 17:39 |
| Rocketeer99 | @Paddy_NI try ~/.cache/notify-osd.log | 17:39 |
| Rocketeer99 | @d08z I can't find a terminal command for it but it should be "Have file manager handle desktop" under "Desktop" in gnome-tweak-tool | 17:41 |
| === folder| is now known as folder|AllPowerf | ||
| d08z | Rocketeer99: this option does not exists in the gnome tools for 16.04 | 17:41 |
| boriseto | Hi. Is there a plugin for Pidgin/Unity that would create separate protocol icons in Unity/Gnome instead of having the same icon for all windows? | 17:42 |
| === folder|AllPowerf is now known as folder| | ||
| Rocketeer99 | d08z: Alright let me take a look | 17:42 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: tyvm | 17:42 |
| Rocketeer99 | d08z: Try "Icons on Desktop"? | 17:43 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: already did | 17:43 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: do you think removing gnome-shell would do it | 17:43 |
| Rocketeer99 | Removing gnome-shell and rebooting might work | 17:44 |
| Rocketeer99 | But first try "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons true" in terminal | 17:44 |
| Tameiki | Hello, in Ubuntu 16.04, I have weird interfaces name (p2p1 on my server, enp3s0 and wlp4s0 on my laptop). Where can I change that to eth0 and wlan0 ? I have no file in /etc/udev/rules.d/... | 17:44 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: ok well ill try that | 17:44 |
| === zz_CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob | ||
| Rocketeer99 | and I'd say reboot after that before uninstalling gnome shell or at least restart unity with "unity" in terminal | 17:45 |
| d08z | Rocketeer99: is it the package "gnome-shell-common" | 17:46 |
| SchrodingersScat | Tameiki: I just assumed that's life now, I changed my scripts to enp3s0 | 17:46 |
| Tameiki | SchrodingersScat : There is no way to edit that ? | 17:47 |
| Rocketeer99 | d08z: That sounds right? I'll admit I've never installed or uninstalled gnome before | 17:47 |
| nacc | Tameiki: why does it matter? also read about predictable interface naming | 17:47 |

| fasdfd | Hi, I need help with wget. | 17:47 |
| fasdfd | wget -r --convert-links --no-directories --level=1 --no-parent --include /user/username,/music http://www.last.fm/user/username | 17:48 |
| fasdfd | Why doesn't this save the stuff in last.fm/music? | 17:48 |
| Rocketeer99 | fasdfd: does that save things in the working directory or just not work at all? | 17:48 |
| nacc | fasdfd: what version of ubuntu? i don't see a --include in `man wget` on 16.04 | 17:48 |
| Tameiki | nacc, Where I can saw the predictable interface name ? It matters because I always had eth and wlan interfaces. Those names make sense... "emp3s0" and "wlp3s0" is not obvious... | 17:48 |
| nacc | Tameiki: why do you care what they are called? | 17:49 |
| fasdfd | It does, just not omits the music folder.. | 17:49 |
| Tameiki | nacc, Habitude... Maybe ? | 17:49 |
| nacc | Tameiki: eth* is the kernel's namespace, that's why it was changed, has no correlation to anything a user knows (necessarily) | 17:49 |
| fasdfd | nacc, I was using man on the gnu.org page, perhaps that's the reason, but note that the built in man wget seems to be shortened. | 17:49 |
| nacc | fasdfd: ah that could be | 17:50 |
| Tameiki | nacc, I found some rules file in /lib/udev/rules.d/ | 17:50 |
| nacc | Tameiki: you can google around for the predictable naming stuff, it's pretty widely known at this point | 17:50 |
| nacc | Tameiki: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/ e.g. | 17:51 |
| fasdfd | Rocketeer99, it seems to be only downloading things in the /user/username folder and only some others and it doesn't convert all the links.. | 17:52 |
| nacc | Tameiki: as a desktop user, there is very little reason (unless something isn't working), to even know what your interfaces are named, IMO. Just use the network. For more complicated configurations, perhaps it makes sense to know | 17:53 |
| Tameiki | nacc, But I'm also a server user so... | 17:53 |
| fasdfd | or when I run it with --no-parent instead of --include, it downloads some things that can't be reached with one click on the webpage.. | 17:54 |
| fasdfd | of course with level=1 specified | 17:54 |
| nacc | Tameiki: ok, then you should know how to read `ip addr`, `ifconfig`, etc. output; and the device name is just a label | 17:54 |
| Tameiki | nacc, Yes, of course I know | 17:55 |
| Tameiki | But... The "why" I want to change the label isn't the question here... My question is "how". Because I "prefer", as an "habitude", to read "eth" and "wlan" interfaces... | 17:55 |
| lolzer | anyone here knows online poker app for ubuntu? | 17:56 |
| CIclops | is it ok to install gcc 4.9 on 14.04.4? | 17:56 |

| fasdfd | I runned wget -r --convert-links --no-directories --level=1 --no-parent http://www.last.fm/user/username and it downloaded www.last.fm/user/username/library/music/Artist/Album which is not linked on www.last.fm/user/username/library/music/Artist/Album | 17:57 |
| Tameiki | nacc, But I found the answer, by the way. | 17:57 |

| stephanketterer | hello, newbie here with a problem, hoping to find a gentle soul to help me :) | 18:12 |
| Broseidon | quasi newbie here. maybe i can help you | 18:13 |
| stephanketterer | i got a brand new gtx 1070, and i simply don't get it to install, tell me anything that would make it work, even if i have to reinstall the os, i do not care, i just want this card to work under ubuntu | 18:13 |
| live | Running SOLOS Linux I cant use apt-get or yum why? | 18:14 |
| fasdfd | what drivers do you have stephanketterer | 18:14 |
| live | comand not found | 18:14 |
| vm096_ | live: because it use another pack manager | 18:15 |
| vm096_ | like packman etc | 18:15 |
| vm096_ | i dont know what solos use to manage packges | 18:15 |
| uncle_ben | i have a dvd that was made at a school using some kind of mac and some kind of dvd authoring program...i want to transcode it, but can't see any files, either using 'ls' or pacmanfm | 18:15 |
| stephanketterer | fasdfd, i downloaded the newest (the ones that were released for the new cards.. but i cannot install it.. all errors about x something and nouvou..) i am a really a beginner... so my plan was to just put the card in there and reinstall ubuntu.. but that just gives me a black screen | 18:16 |
| ubuntu__ | is there away find out what /dev/... device file is being used by which kernel modules? Is there a method thru /proc or modinfo , or some other command like lsof for device files to link what application is using them and which modules are using which ones | 18:16 |
| fasdfd | stephanketterer, search for additional drivers in dash | 18:16 |
| vm096_ | ubuntu_ try research about lsof | 18:16 |
| Broseidon | setphanketterer are you just getting a blank desktop? can you open a TTY terminal (control + alt + f5) | 18:17 |
| Broseidon | oh and control + alt + f7 to come back to your normal desktop if you do that | 18:18 |
| vm096_ | stephanketterer did you try to enable it on bios? | 18:18 |
| vm096_ | black screen after install? | 18:19 |
| stephanketterer | no when i boot from usb | 18:19 |
| stephanketterer | to install ubuntu | 18:19 |
| stephanketterer | i get a black screen | 18:19 |
| stephanketterer | vm096_i am sorry but what does enabling in bios means ? | 18:19 |
| stephanketterer | it is stuck in an pci slot | 18:20 |
| stephanketterer | don't think that its disabled | 18:20 |
| vm096_ | some motherboard have to enable pci | 18:20 |
| Bayam | is anyone have a socmed (social media) likes facebook, line, blackberry msg, could you invite/add me? lets talk *sorry for my bad english :) | 18:20 |
| vm096_ | yes but perhaps | 18:20 |
| stephanketterer | nah because i did not change the settings | 18:20 |
| vm096_ | ok | 18:20 |
| Broseidon | stephanketterer is the card working as expected with windows etc? | 18:20 |
| stephanketterer | and it worked with my older card perfectly | 18:20 |
| vm096_ | do you have another way to connect the display, direct on motherboard? | 18:21 |
| stephanketterer | have not tested it with windows.. but i get a picture.. sometimes.. when i try the fail safe mode or whatever it is called | 18:21 |
| stephanketterer | so the card is able to produce images | 18:21 |
| stephanketterer | so its not dead :) | 18:21 |
| stephanketterer | vm096 i think so | 18:21 |
| vm096_ | ok now that you tell us that | 18:21 |
| stephanketterer | i am sure i sound like a dumbass.. sorry for that | 18:21 |
| stephanketterer | not intentional :) | 18:21 |
| vm096_ | no problem | 18:21 |
| Broseidon | setphanketterer so the ubuntu installer itself just goes blank? | 18:22 |
| ubuntu__ | ya well lsof gives me the device files associated to any of the process , libraries ,..etc but it say's nothing about LKM devices they are using | 18:22 |
| stephanketterer | yes unfortunately | 18:22 |
| stephanketterer | and i cannot use windows for what i am running ( tensor flow) | 18:22 |
| stephanketterer | so i have to get it going under ubuntu | 18:22 |
| vm096_ | did you tru to do what Broseidon said | 18:22 |
| vm096_ | *try | 18:22 |
| stephanketterer | ok give me a second | 18:23 |
| stephanketterer | will put it in again and try :) | 18:23 |
| stephanketterer | and thank you for listening to me | 18:23 |
| FoeHammered | Neither apt-get nor Synaptic can seem to download any packages right now. What could be wrong? How can I try to fix that? | 18:23 |
| Broseidon | another thing you can try is booting your ubuntu installer drive legacy instead of uefi, it's also possible you have a corrupt ubuntu ISO, I've had issues like this before at random | 18:24 |
| Broseidon | Foehammered what happens when you try to use apt-get? | 18:24 |
| ubuntu__ | is there any way to list the device files used by a particular LKM or at least the major and minor numbers of the associated device files the LKM uses | 18:25 |
| vm096_ | Broseidon, uefi mode can affect pci devices to work property? | 18:25 |
| FoeHammered | 0% [Connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1562::16)] | 18:25 |
| stephanketterer | ok | 18:25 |
| FoeHammered | Indefinitely. | 18:25 |
| stephanketterer | so it boots in windows without problems, obv resolution wrong because of the missing driver | 18:25 |
| Broseidon | vm096_ just trying to see if his installer will work without the graphical boot | 18:26 |
| vm096_ | FoeHammered try to check apt repositories | 18:26 |
| stephanketterer | ok.. so | 18:26 |
| stephanketterer | know now that the card works | 18:26 |
| stephanketterer | that is a start | 18:26 |
| FoeHammered | vm096_: How do I do that? | 18:26 |
| CIclops | does 6861 need additional packages to support voice on 64bit Ubuntu 14.04? 6157 works fine | 18:27 |
| vm096_ | FoeHammered: u can check on /etc/apt/ | 18:27 |
| ubuntu__ | i know lspci -k shows the kernel drivers or LKM associated with each pci device but there isn't a way i can go from what you get from lsmod to what each LKM uses if any for device files? | 18:27 |
| FoeHammered | What would I be looking for, vm096_? | 18:28 |
| vm096_ | ubuntu__: was to u that I tell to check about lsof? | 18:28 |
| vm096_ | on sources.list file | 18:29 |
| vm096_ | cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list | 18:29 |
| ubuntu__ | ya and that only works for things that are not LKM as far as i know how to uses it | 18:29 |
| vm096_ | what do you have? | 18:29 |
| vm096_ | ubuntu__: ok good to know :) | 18:29 |
| ubuntu__ | do you know of a method for LKM to device files and visa-versa for a way to analysis those things | 18:30 |

| * FoeHammered hasn't ever done this, so he is floundering a little. | 18:34 | |
| timvisher | i just noticed that `/var/run` appears to not exist at boot time on an ubuntu 14.04 system. init.d services that rely on being able to write to that directory fail despite the fact that once the machine is booted, the symlink exists. is that expected? | 18:34 |
| vm096_ | zykotic9 is right | 18:35 |
| FoeHammered | zykotick9: 1) Yeah, this is new as of this morning. 2) I'm chatting on IRC and looking at videos on the same device. 3) There's a minor firewall in our apartment building, but it hasn't been a problem for this in the past... Maybe something changed with it. | 18:35 |
| FoeHammered | I'm a bit new to all this, so it'll be slow going while I remember simple commands, I fear. | 18:36 |
| zykotick9 | FoeHammered: does "ping us.archive.ubuntu.com" work? ctrl+c to cancel it. | 18:36 |
| FoeHammered | (Oddly, I remembered ctrl-c, but that is, it's true, exactly the kind of command I'm not yet accustomed to. Thanks.) 64 bytes from economy.canonical.com (91.189.91.23): icmp_seq=1 ttl=49 time=94.3 ms | 18:37 |
| spudowiar1 | was randall in this room? | 18:37 |
| zykotick9 | FoeHammered: so, you can still connect to us.archive.ubunut.com at least on the ICMP ports... but the firewall could be blocking whatever port apt uses? I don't really have any other suggestions... so, best of luck. | 18:39 |
| vm096_ | try to mv source.list and try to build again | 18:39 |
| swati_27 | is mariadb not supported for kubuntu 16.04? | 18:39 |
| zykotick9 | FoeHammered: be careful not to delete that sources.list, i doubt it'll be recreated (i think that comes from installer, but could be wrong) | 18:39 |
| vm096_ | sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list ~/ | 18:40 |

| swati_27 | Is still doesn't work... | 18:41 |
| swati_27 | *It | 18:41 |
| zykotick9 | FoeHammered: vm096_'s mv command will move it from /etc/apt to your home directory (thus it could be moved back, when required) | 18:41 |
| vm096_ | with #$ sudo software-properties-gtk - you will define new repo config | 18:41 |
| FoeHammered | Sounds like a plan. | 18:42 |
| vm096_ | yes | 18:42 |
| vm096_ | if not | 18:42 |
| vm096_ | just copy back sources.list from ~/sources.list => /etc/apt/ | 18:42 |
| FoeHammered | Indeed. | 18:42 |

| upp | hello, my google-chrome .config folder is 8GB ?? can any one explain that for me? | 19:12 |
| ubuntu__ | curious on linux i am trying to understand low level sound LKM files these are what i get from lsmod for sound http://pastebin.com/KpMy9NXp | 19:12 |
| ubuntu__ | The main kernel driver LKM is snd_hda_intel but kind of wondering what the other ones are for | 19:12 |
| ubuntu__ | lsmod gives me that they Used by alot of different ones inter relate / uses one another | 19:12 |
| ubuntu__ | snd_hda_intel humm just curious and confused alittle about why lspci -k displays that one LKM for controlling the sound card hardware but clearly there is many modules that are associated with sound | 19:12 |
| ubuntu__ | some depend on each other some are not used by any others | 19:12 |
| ubuntu__ | so what makes the distinction between the snd_hda_int | 19:12 |

| fasdfd | upp, simple chrome is sh**, delete that folder and you have 8 gigs free, and probably settings removed | 19:18 |
| fasdfd | alternatively upp do this in chrome | 19:18 |
| upp | fasdfd: the Problem is not to delete it, the Problem is why itÄs 8GB | 19:18 |
| fasdfd | upp, ctrl shift delete | 19:19 |
| genii | upp: They might have a better answer why in the #chromium channel. Since Chrome is not open source, there's no way to know what it's doing or if that folder is supposed to be that size. | 19:19 |
| upp | fasdfd: shift delete do that | 19:19 |
| fasdfd | upp, well, if you didn't mess with your settings then im guessing its normal. Perhaps you can find some option like Firefox's local cache limit, 350MB is totally fine for me | 19:20 |
| upp | fasdfd: 8 gigs is not normal xD | 19:21 |
| fasdfd | upp, youd be surprised how much cache can apps accumulate... im limiting this whenever i can | 19:21 |
| genii | upp: As I said earlier... the problem is no one except the devs which know how the application actually works would know if that is a normal thing or not. So those guys you need to ask about it specifically are in the #chromium channel. | 19:22 |

| Shogoot | Hi people. Im having a trouble to get nwetwork to work on a HP Pavilion Entertainment Pc (it has a broadcom wifi). Ubutnu 16.04 intalls fine, bu i dont get neighter ethernet nor wifi connection. Ive googled but all i get is how to fix the wifi (as it has broadcom), but not the thernet. I know ethernet was working as i had a vista os on it until yestrday and ethernet was working proplery. | 19:47 |
| fasdfd | Guest49184, imgur.com perhaps | 19:47 |
| Guest49184 | ok | 19:47 |
| ubuntu__ | what i am asking is if we have snd_hwd_intel for the interrupt handler and LKM used for the sound card then why do you need the rest of the LKM for sound | 19:48 |
| nacc | ubuntu__: as just mentioned, not really an ubuntu support question -- the kernel does more than route interrupts, so there might be software layers above it provided by other modules. | 19:49 |
| luxitanium | Shogoot have you been able to connect to the internet on the installed system already? | 19:49 |
| Shogoot | luxitanium, no, that is my problem :) | 19:49 |
| nacc | ubuntu__: i would recommend you read the kernel source for the modules in question, to see what they provide. | 19:49 |
| Akuli | I just installed ubuntu 12.04 (yes, i know its old), and to get a desktop environment i installed the xfce4 package. it's missing icons. which package do i need? | 19:50 |
| luxitanium | it's a known bug with network manager, I had it myself, my laptop also has Broadcom wifi. | 19:50 |
| luxitanium | check this answer http://askubuntu.com/questions/763785/why-wired-internet-is-not-working-in-ubuntu-16-04-lts | 19:50 |
| EriC^^ | Akuli: how did you install xfce4? | 19:50 |
| Akuli | sudo apt-get install xfce4 | 19:50 |
| Shogoot | luxitanium, ill look ai it asap. thx so far | 19:51 |
| ubuntu__ | right but these modules don't have to directly go thru the interrupt handler i see so how can they call the snd_hwd_intel the kernel driver or main LKM used when tracking down sound problems how does one locate the exact module / LKM that needs to be replaced | 19:51 |
| Akuli | but it turns out i just needed to select an icon theme in the preferences | 19:51 |
| Akuli | so its up and running now :) | 19:51 |
| EriC^^ | Akuli: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop^ | 19:51 |
| EriC^^ | might be better | 19:51 |
| Akuli | i don't want that | 19:51 |
| Akuli | the computer has a 12GB hard drive | 19:51 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 19:51 |
| Akuli | and ubuntu is only a little part of it | 19:51 |
| ubuntu__ | that is kind of what all this is getting at being able to locate/find the exact location of the hardware issue | 19:51 |
| Akuli | but now i mostly have working icons | 19:51 |
| EriC^^ | ok cool | 19:51 |
| Guest49184 | http://imgur.com/0rRuYGc | 19:52 |

| Guest49184 | cant get rid of it unless i left-click right side of this http://imgur.com/0rRuYGc | 19:52 |
| curlyears | heigh hough | 19:52 |
| fasdfd | Guest49184 and it appears by itself? I think it's a bug | 19:54 |
| ubuntu__ | And if linux does not have an LKM built in to support a new device installed where do you get the driver or LKM for the new device or are you pretty much screwed until somebody figures out the spec's and writes a LKM for the new hardware? | 19:54 |
| Guest49184 | Doesn't happen in Unity though | 19:54 |
| nacc | ubuntu__: what does this have to do with Ubuntu support? | 19:54 |
| curlyears | what the &^%^& us LKM? | 19:55 |
| fasdfd | Guest49184, I think a good idea would be to try Ubuntu GNOME from ubuntugnome.org or LTS version of Ubuntu which should be more stable, there's also Linux Mint. | 19:55 |
| GuNs`` | (©©©©©©©©©) chalcedny (©©©©©©©©©) | 19:55 |
| ubuntu__ | I have say a new sound card that ubuntu doesn't supporti want to trouble shoot this say and fix it or know its not possible to fix because there is no current LKM for it | 19:55 |

| curlyears | Akuli: I don't think the newer versions of ubuntu will load and execute properly in only 6.0 GB | 19:57 |
| EriC^^ | Akuli: you might want to run sudo apt-get clean first | 19:57 |

| EriC^^ | Akuli: in that case nevermind | 19:58 |
| Akuli | :) | 19:58 |
| ubuntu__ | I am talking about a hypothetical case yes but this case if i knew how to solve it for this could be generalized to solve any driver problems for other devices not just sound thats why its an important question to solve for linux/unix like os's | 19:58 |
| Akuli | i'd probably run an apt-get upgrade first, at least | 19:58 |
| nacc | ubuntu__: not an ubuntu support question! | 19:58 |
| curlyears | Akuli: then why did you ask? I believe I remembered version 14.04.4 saying it required 6.5GB or so of disk space | 19:59 |

| mariano_ | linux-image-4.4.0-22-generic_4.4.0-22.40+lp1579190_amd64.deb | 20:03 |
| Akuli | Guest49184, there's alternatives to gtk like qt. some applications use qt (like skype and nitroshare), but they all run in the same window manager. | 20:04 |
| nacc | mariano_: download said .deb file and `dpkg -i <path to .deb>` | 20:04 |
| mariano_ | It addresses a repeated typing of the number 5 for people that have logitech keyboards | 20:04 |
| nacc | mariano_: then reboot to that kernel | 20:04 |
| mariano_ | ok, thanks | 20:04 |
| Guest49184 | I see | 20:04 |
| fasdfd | Guest49184, shell theme just replaces the original theme files, graphics mostly | 20:05 |
| Akuli | mariano_, you probably want to run 'apt-get -f install' after that | 20:05 |

| === abhishek_ is now known as Guest6972 | ||
| Akuli | installing packages by installing the package first and then dependencies is probably not the best way, but it works well :) | 20:05 |
| mariano_ | so it would be: sudo dpkg -i <path to .deb> apt-get -f install? | 20:06 |
| Guest49184 | I can only see a difference in the top panel by applying a shell theme , thats all ? | 20:06 |
| Akuli | sudo apt-get -f install | 20:06 |
| fasdfd | Guest49184, there can be more AFAIK | 20:06 |
| Akuli | mariano_, if you're unsure about using sudo don't use it :) you'll get an error message that tells you to use it. but if you sudo when you don't need to you might break things. | 20:06 |
| k1l_ | mariano_: no. | 20:06 |
| mariano_ | oh ok | 20:06 |
| k1l_ | that are 2 commands. | 20:06 |

| mariano_ | I will. Cool, I'm going to try it now. | 20:07 |

| Eventyret | Anyone got the repo or PPA for the Franz messenger, kind of struggling to try just install it and wanted to make a desktop shortcut (Ubuntu Gnome 16) | 20:07 |
| Guest49184 | Will give Ubuntugnome a try :) | 20:07 |
| k1l_ | sudo dpkg -i kernel-image.deb kernel-headers.deb (that are 2 deb files you need). then sudo apt install -f | 20:07 |
| nacc | k1l_: do you need the headers file deb to install the image deb? didn't realize that | 20:08 |
| k1l_ | nacc: no you dont. but you need that headers if you want to have your dkms stuff compiled. like video drivers from nvidia etc. | 20:08 |
| nacc | !ppa | Eventyret | 20:08 |

| Eventyret | Will that work on Ubuntu Gnome OerHeks? | 20:11 |
| nacc | Eventyret: not sure i follow; franz is not packaged by Ubuntu (afaict), so you'd have to use their tarball or find a PPA. | 20:11 |
| nacc | Eventyret: and both those are supported by their respective owners, not here | 20:11 |
| === mohammad is now known as Guest79566 | ||
| Eventyret | nacc, yeah i figured, only thing is i found the tarball no ./configure or make in it so normally its just unzip and double click the "program" and it starts, problem I have was to try add it as a deskop, but its not a SH file so not sure what i enter it as in the path | 20:12 |
| OerHeks | Eventyret, are you sure gnome does not make a launcher at all? | 20:13 |
| === LiENUX is now known as LiENUS | ||
| nacc | Eventyret: it's one of those new-fangled node embedded tarballs, probably | 20:14 |

| nacc | Eventyret: just put "program" in the patH? | 20:14 |
| nacc | Eventyret: not sure why that's not obvious :) | 20:14 |
| Eventyret | so the program is just lets say "home/username"download/franz" | 20:14 |
| Eventyret | nothing more i can't see the extention on it :) | 20:15 |
| nacc | Eventyret: extensions are a windows thing | 20:15 |
| nacc | Eventyret: so put "home/username/download/franz" as the path | 20:15 |

| mariano_ | I installed linux-image-4.4.0-22-generic_4.4.0-22.40+lp1579190_amd64.deb but when I type 'uname -a' i get back 4.4.0-24-generic #43-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 8 19:27:37 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux. Did the install not work? | 20:20 |
| mariano_ | I rebooted the computer too. | 20:20 |
| SCCMAvenger | My company uses Skype for Business I can just switch to another messenger :) | 20:20 |
| nacc | mariano_: did you boot *to* that kernel specifically? it may not be the default (esp. if you have a later-versioned one installed as well) | 20:22 |
| nacc | mariano_: so reboot, hit esc or whatever in grub and pick the right kernel | 20:22 |
| mariano_ | I never get a grub menu, the computer just boots to my xubuntu 16.04 desktop. | 20:22 |

| aruns | At least it's not a new machine you've screwed up. | 21:40 |
| Jordan_U | aruns: It ensures that all of the packages that are installed by default are installed. | 21:41 |
| aruns | Jordan_U: Yeah, so I will need to remove Firefox lol | 21:41 |

| Jordan_U | aruns: Having it installed but not in use doesn't hurt anything. | 21:41 |
| aruns | Jordan_U: I guess not, I just don't like having Firefox. | 21:42 |
| aruns | Its logo is too ugly. | 21:42 |
| Jordan_U | aruns: You might try Xubuntu or Lubuntu though. They are designed to be more light weight. | 21:42 |

| Cyll | YankDownUnder: Yay, not dead. | 21:43 |
| YankDownUnder | aruns, Knowing that you prefer "Unity" as your DM/WM, have you tried WindowMaker or XFce or LxDE? Just asking...recently did a "migration" for someone on an ancient laptop and they kinda dig WindowMaker (very ancient window mangler) | 21:45 |
| aruns | YankDownUnder: I've thought about trying XFCE. | 21:45 |

| YankDownUnder | aruns, Yes. | 21:51 |
| aruns | YankDownUnder: OK. Does that mean that, if I choose to run XFCE for all subsequent user sessions, even if I have Unity installed my laptop won't be slowed down by having Unity installed? | 21:52 |
| YankDownUnder | aruns, You can also add or remove different desktop environments - based on what you "need" or "want"...for me, on servers, I always use the lightest possible desktop - if at all. | 21:52 |
| aruns | YankDownUnder: Or should I uninstall Unity once another desktop manager is installed? | 21:52 |
| Ben64 | you're not slowed down by having anything installed | 21:52 |
| ubntukybrd | How can I troubleshoot a keyboard issue? It stops working for a few seconds then goes normal again. dmesg doesn't show anything like the device getting dropped and reattaching | 21:53 |
| YankDownUnder | aruns, No mate...but again, you can choose to remove what you do not wish to have - especially if "space" is an issue on the machine | 21:53 |
| YankDownUnder | ubntukybrd, Wireless keyboard? | 21:53 |
| aruns | I have a 77.6 GB HDD. | 21:53 |
| aruns | YankDownUnder: Which Linux distros do you mostly use for servers? Debian? | 21:53 |
| ubntukybrd | YankDownUnder: Yes but I tried a wired keyboard and it does the same thing. It's a logitech wireless and the receiver is less than 12" away. | 21:54 |
| YankDownUnder | aruns, Well, then space is something for you to think about...if you want to conserve space (albeit not that much) you can choose to remove bits and bobs. | 21:54 |

| aruns | skatelouis: Type cd skatelouis without the leading forward slash | 21:56 |
| andrew__ | hey | 21:57 |
| nacc | skatelouis: cd /skatelouis says to change directory to skatelouis under / | 21:57 |
| andrew__ | this there a problem with unbuntu 16.04 for raspberry pi? | 21:57 |
| aruns | skatelouis: It's because / stands for root, and /skatelouis isn't a root directory. | 21:57 |
| skatelouis | skatelouis@skatelouis-Aspire-3830TG:/home$ cd /skatelouis | 21:57 |
| skatelouis | bash: cd: /skatelouis: No such file or directory | 21:57 |
| aruns | skatelouis: No, cd skatelouis | 21:57 |
| andrew__ | evrey time i try to update it, it locks up and i have to start over | 21:57 |
| nacc | skatelouis: you were told to type it "witout the leading forward slash" | 21:57 |
| nacc | *without | 21:58 |
| aruns | skatelouis: Don't type in the leading forward slash | 21:58 |
| ubntukybrd | YankDownUnder: So far so good. Thanks. | 21:58 |
| TikityTik | does lightdm depend on xinit? | 21:58 |
| YankDownUnder | ubntukybrd, Coolbeans | 21:58 |
| skatelouis | just doing "cd skatelouis"? It removes /home | 21:58 |
| k1l_ | andrew__: "df -h" is the disk full? | 21:58 |
| aruns | skatelouis: You're already in the home folder. | 21:58 |
| andrew__ | no it was not | 21:58 |
| TikityTik | can i make lightdm startup jwm instead for a window manager? | 21:59 |
| andrew__ | it was a fresh install 16 gb free space | 21:59 |
| aruns | skatelouis: Think of it as a relative path. | 21:59 |
| skatelouis | skatelouis@skatelouis-Aspire-3830TG:/home$ cd skatelouis | 21:59 |
| skatelouis | skatelouis@skatelouis-Aspire-3830TG:~$ | 21:59 |
| ubntukybrd | YankDownUnder: What's the underlying issue? rf interference or a driver issue? | 21:59 |
| aruns | skatelouis: ~ stands for the home directory, which means /home/skatelouis | 21:59 |
| andrew__ | im on 15 on raspberry pi | 21:59 |
| k1l_ | andrew__: "df -h | nc termbin.com 9999" in terminal and show the url here. | 21:59 |
| aruns | So you're on home/skatelouis now I believe | 21:59 |
| skatelouis | its possible | 22:00 |
| andrew__ | df-h | 22:00 |
| aruns | Yeah, if you type pwd in terminal it will confirm | 22:00 |
| andrew__ | how do i do that | 22:00 |
| skatelouis | aruns : you are right | 22:00 |
| andrew__ | i know how to run the command | 22:00 |
| aruns | nacc: By the way, what does ~ stand for again, Tilden or something? I forget. | 22:00 |
| andrew__ | but how do i put it in this chat | 22:00 |
| skatelouis | aruns : Thank you | 22:00 |
| nacc | aruns: english word for it is "tilde" | 22:00 |
| aruns | skatelouis: No problem. | 22:00 |
| YankDownUnder | ubntukybrd, Being that I have the same issue, it would appear to be the case. On THIS machine - my server, the wireless keyboard and mouse work a charm when "bluetooth" is disabled...and I've even disabled it in the BIOS...however, when I turn BT back on, the issues go from "intermittent" to "constant" - so, if that tells you anything - yes, there appears to be a conflict. | 22:00 |
| k1l_ | <k1l_> andrew__: "df -h | nc termbin.com 9999" in terminal and show the url here. | 22:01 |
| aruns | nacc: Thanks. Is there any particular reason the tilde is used to represent the home directory? | 22:01 |
| ubntukybrd | YankDownUnder: Gotcha. Thanks a million. | 22:01 |
| andrew__ | http://termbin.com/qua0 | 22:01 |
| aruns | nacc: Does this go back to the days of UNIX or something? | 22:02 |
| nacc | aruns: i think technically it's shell specific (although they might all use ~). You can use $HOME, too (which is more UNIX, possibly). I'm honestly not sure on the history | 22:02 |
| andrew__ | i got it | 22:02 |
| andrew__ | link posted | 22:02 |
| nacc | aruns: in fact ~ is documented in `man bash` under 'tilde expansion' | 22:02 |
| Guest6972 | Bashing-om, just saw your msg, thanks for the reply! If possible can you provide more info. on solution, any likelihood it would break something. | 22:03 |
| aruns | nacc: Thanks, I love reading man pages :D | 22:03 |
| k1l_ | andrew__: ok, there is enough space | 22:03 |
| k1l_ | andrew__: but i dont know if the /boot is too small. was there an issue listed while updating? | 22:04 |
| nacc | aruns: i feel like 99% of my responses here are either reading the man-page first, or quoting it directly :) | 22:04 |
| * YankDownUnder remembers when we had "man" pages printed out due to lack of space on the machines | 22:05 | |
| aruns | :P | 22:06 |
| andrew__ | when i try to update ubuntu 16.04 | 22:06 |
| aruns | Do you guys want to hear a bad Matt Damon Linux joke? | 22:06 |
| andrew__ | it will go go for about 13 minutes | 22:06 |
| SchrodingersScat | aruns: that's off topic here, so no, even if someone says yes you're in the wrong channel. | 22:07 |
| andrew__ | then it will say ubuntu has had a critical software problem | 22:07 |
| andrew__ | freze | 22:07 |
| YankDownUnder | aruns, "Matt Damon" and "Linux" in the same sentence? | 22:07 |
| andrew__ | wont respond | 22:07 |
| aruns | SchrodingersScat: Ubuntu is Linux...? | 22:07 |
| andrew__ | i pull the power | 22:07 |
| andrew__ | wont boot | 22:07 |
| andrew__ | i haveto erase the card | 22:07 |
| aruns | YankDownUnder: Yes. | 22:07 |
| andrew__ | then reimage the whole card | 22:07 |
| aruns | What do you get if you cross Matt Damon and shell scripting? Bourne Again. | 22:08 |
| k1l_ | andrew__: does a 16.04 image work on reinstall? | 22:08 |
| andrew__ | yes | 22:08 |
| andrew__ | it works untill i upgrade it | 22:08 |
| YankDownUnder | aruns, Hehehhee...great... | 22:08 |
| hggdh | aruns: enough, please. Kep on topic | 22:08 |
| Bashing-om | Guest6972: That is but a test .. will not break anything .. if there is an improvement ( might also try 2015 ) we can then make it permanent . | 22:08 |
| aruns | hggdh: OK, sorry :P | 22:09 |
| andrew__ | oddly enough | 22:09 |
| andrew__ | ubuntu 15 is stable | 22:09 |
| EriC^^ | aruns: that was a good one :D | 22:09 |
| aruns | YankDownUnder: Oh, by the way, going back to desktop environments what's the Cinnamon desktop environment supposed to be like? | 22:09 |
| aruns | EriC^^: :D | 22:10 |
| hggdh | andrew__: please send in a full sentence. Typing two words per enter does not help people trying to understand you | 22:10 |
| YankDownUnder | aruns, It's quite all right - kinda like the old "Gnome2" days. Relatively easy on resource, but more of a hog than XFce | 22:10 |

| TikityTik | can i configure lightdm to open a window manager? | 22:14 |
| YankDownUnder | aruns, Kinda. I'd prefer to NOT call myself that...just been using OS's for a very very long time... | 22:14 |

| TikityTik | can i configure lightdm to open a window manager? | 22:18 |
| Oldcpv3 | use gnome? | 22:18 |
| Oldcpv3 | i'm with a half-baked lxde, i need to use cli to restart, log off, etc | 22:18 |
| YankDownUnder | TikityTik, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM | 22:18 |
| OerHeks | TikityTik, sure, default session https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM | 22:19 |
| TikityTik | ah, i see it now | 22:20 |
| TikityTik | what is the most lightweight display manager? | 22:22 |
| TikityTik | because i'm using somethign super light weight which is jwm | 22:22 |
| Oldcpv3 | lxde? | 22:23 |
| TikityTik | also will using lightdm take up ram even if it starts a jwm session? | 22:23 |
| TikityTik | this laptop that i'm working on only has 512 DDR2 ram | 22:24 |
| TikityTik | and is single core 1.7 Ghz | 22:24 |
| TikityTik | so i need to go LIGHT | 22:24 |
| Oldcpv3 | uh huh | 22:24 |
| genii | openbox | 22:24 |
| Oldcpv3 | use cli | 22:24 |
| YankDownUnder | TikityTik, You can always setup the system to boot to a console, then you login, then you can start your X session from there...so that bypasses the requirement for a "session manager"/"greeter" - and you have heaps of control over what "wm" you prefer...(like back in the old days) | 22:24 |
| OerHeks | DE <> WM | 22:24 |
| genii | TikityTik: So then no window manager, start openbox by CLI | 22:25 |
| Bashing-om | TikityTik: Lubuntu is a faster, more lightweight and energy saving variant of Ubuntu using LXDE, the Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment. It is targeted at "normal" PC and laptop users running on low-spec hardware. | 22:25 |
| Oldcpv3 | http://doomxtreme.net16.net/ | 22:25 |
| TikityTik | Bashing-om: I installed lubuntu core, this channel is more active so i'm here | 22:27 |
| TikityTik | YankDownUnder: how would i do that automatically this is for my grandma | 22:28 |
| YankDownUnder | TikityTik, You would setup a script to automatically start X after the login. | 22:28 |
| TikityTik | ah | 22:29 |
| TikityTik | ah how can i get an automatic login? | 22:29 |

| craptalk | how can i download video on ubuntu using wget? the source is not from youtube | 22:31 |
| TikityTik | YankDownUnder: don't i need a service after i disable lightdm? | 22:31 |
| craptalk | what command line should i use? | 22:31 |
| TikityTik | craptalk: ctrl+alt+t | 22:32 |
| OerHeks | craptalk, if it is a stream, find a streamrecorder | 22:32 |
| craptalk | it is from facebook that someone uploaded a video there | 22:32 |
| craptalk | OerHeks: how can i do it? | 22:33 |
| YankDownUnder | TikityTik, You set up your system to boot to the "cli" - to the console. By doing that, you don't require a "service" to do anything. You then create a custom script to automatically start X after the user logs in. That being said, you've trimmed heaps of resource from the entire system as well. | 22:33 |
| OerHeks | craptalk, oh facebook, dunno | 22:33 |
| craptalk | i cant use wget -c 'http://url' | 22:33 |
| craptalk | i just get the html file instead | 22:33 |
| craptalk | anyway, i got the link source, i thought it would that easy, but i dont get the video | 22:34 |
| TikityTik | craptalk: just use flash downloader add on firefox | 22:34 |
| craptalk | TikityTik: whats that name? | 22:34 |
| TikityTik | craptalk: "Flash and Video Download" | 22:34 |
| TikityTik | YankDownUnder: you mean by creating this .xinitrc, the systme will boot to the "cli"? | 22:35 |

| craptalk | sponix: whats that? | 22:36 |
| garrettr | How can I get a list of the packages that are included by default in an Ubuntu install? | 22:37 |
| YankDownUnder | TikityTik, No. That is not what I meant. Let's do this step by step: Firstly, you need to remove the "session manager" - Light-DM or whatever - and the system needs to be configured to boot to the console. Secondly, you then have to create a "startx" script for starting your preferred window manager. Thirdly, you then have to create a script that is automatically started once the user logs in. Right? So those are the steps, and | 22:37 |
| YankDownUnder | that's what you need to do to get what you're asking for. Easy as. | 22:37 |
| sponix | garrettr: I think dpkg -l does _Something_ | 22:37 |
| garrettr | e.g. "What packages are included in a default install of Ubuntu 14.04.4"? | 22:38 |
| garrettr | Is that what this is? http://releases.ubuntu.com/trusty/ubuntu-14.04.4-desktop-amd64.manifest | 22:38 |
| craptalk | TikityTik: thanks for the add-on | 22:39 |
| OerHeks | garrettr, those are available in the iso, not installed per se | 22:39 |
| TikityTik | YankDownUnder: I haven o idea how to make it boot to the console and where you automatically login | 22:39 |
| sponix | garrettr: That looks like it ;) | 22:39 |
| YankDownUnder | TikityTik, Google. It is your friend. | 22:39 |
| garrettr | OerHeks: Right, but if a file were _not_ included in the manifest, I could reasonably assume it would not be present in a default install, correct? | 22:40 |
| garrettr | Also, I can only find .manifest files for the desktop distribution. Where are the manifests for the server distribution? | 22:40 |

| craptalk | is it stable enough to use itunes on ubuntu? last time i was using it on playLinux, and it got stuck often | 22:45 |
| OerHeks | TikityTik, that is what a lightdm does for you, why do you put your grandma up with lubuntu-core? | 22:45 |
| TikityTik | because her laptop is very bad | 22:45 |
| OerHeks | craptalk, check the wineHQ database | 22:46 |
| TikityTik | and i'm trying to make it fast enough for her | 22:46 |

| craptalk | OerHeks: what you mean by saying something about my name? | 22:47 |
| k1l | craptalk: since apple doesnt ship a linux app you need to use wine. ask the wine guys about issues with that program and wine. | 22:47 |
| OerHeks | oh dear, offended | 22:47 |
| craptalk | OerHeks: nah i am just kidding | 22:48 |
| craptalk | k1l: yeah you are right. but i dont know it's just like sometimes the features dont work well at some points | 22:48 |
| OerHeks | *if* itunes would work, apple gives an update to undo the access | 22:48 |

| capum321 | OerHeks: thanks will take a look | 23:13 |
| capum321 | nacc: so I have to check for the correct sharp2 ? | 23:13 |
| capum321 | desktop or cli? | 23:15 |
| TikityTik | I screwed up my tty1, there's not login | 23:18 |
| TikityTik | there is no login. it just simply shows the end of the startup check | 23:18 |
| nacc | capum321: what? | 23:21 |
| capum321 | nacc the config.log? | 23:22 |
| nacc | capum321: you know how to debug these failures? | 23:23 |
| nacc | capum321: you look for the string that's emitted and see what it's looking for. Then try to satisfy that requirement. | 23:23 |
| nacc | capum321: but in any case, you don't even need to do that here, the configure clearly states you're missing gnome-sharp-2.0 | 23:24 |
| nacc | capum321: apt-cache search sharp | grep gnome | 23:25 |
| nacc | capum321: and you see a package called 'gnome-sharp2'. Install that, probably. | 23:25 |
| capum321 | nacc: all right | 23:25 |
| nacc | capum321: but, tbh, if you are not able to debug this on your own, you probably don't want to be building this yourself | 23:25 |
| capum321 | nacc: am I even typing it correctly the configure parameters? | 23:25 |
| capum321 | nacc: actually i am secure on this... it's just I want someone to double check before doing anything... | 23:26 |
