I was talking about protocols. [02:48] Or you were talking about the previous conversation? [02:53] hola === javashin is now known as ozmage === emma- is now known as emma|offline [05:36] Hi, i made a script to removal seahorse and disable gnome keyring, for users that not want use it for popping up everytime asking passwords [05:36] https://www.dropbox.com/s/j11xq6oyv3icmma/remove-seahorse-keyring-0.3.sh?dl=0 [06:04] https://www.dropbox.com/home/scripts?preview=remove-seahorse-keyring-0.3.sh [07:59] hi all, i tried to install google-earth but it did not work. On the forum was suggested to install "libgl1-mesa-glx:i386". oh man - it removed a lot of packages and started with a lot of unity-crap. so i panicked and closed the terminal. now my system wont start a GUI but i have got a login prompt. it was an 14.04-mate installation. can i fix this or am i better with a complete new installation? [08:02] x2xx3x, sure [08:02] x2xx3x, are you logged in now? [08:03] no, im on a clone-like 14.04 - bootet from an external drive [08:03] ok [08:03] but on the same computer? [08:03] yes [08:03] we could fix it with chroot [08:03] nice! [08:03] run lsblk, and paste the output to dpaste.com [08:04] this computer has very little ram, so use dpaste so i can view it without a web browser :) [08:05] http://dpaste.com/0EFGEYH [08:05] by the way, when your GUI doesn't start your system is far from useless :) you can use irc and even browse the web without a gui [08:06] on /dev/sda10 is my crashed installation [08:06] ok, thats all i wanted to know [08:06] ok :) [08:06] start by unmounting it: umount /dev/sda10 [08:07] then mount it at /mnt: sudo mount /dev/sda10 /mnt [08:08] done [08:08] open the real /etc/resolv.conf (not the one on your broken system) in a text editor [08:08] then run 'sudo nano /mnt/etc/resolv.conf' and copy-paste the content to nano [08:08] exit and save with Ctrl+X [08:10] ok [08:11] done [08:12] change root there: sudo chroot /mnt /bin/bash [08:12] run 'apt-get update', does it work? [08:12] yeah [08:12] nice [08:12] ggggggg [08:12] hurra!!! [08:13] fix any dpkg issues you might have: dpkg --configure -a [08:13] it say to me: dpkg-process was [08:13] exact [08:13] install everything your ubuntu mate came with: apt-get install ubuntu-mate-desktop [08:16] the apt-get one might take a while. tell me when its done [08:16] yeah, i run an apt-get -f install right now [08:17] ok [08:17] seems to work, i get the lost packages back i think [08:17] install ubuntu-mate-desktop also [08:17] just to be sure [08:19] :D it finished everything without troubles! Thank you sooooo much! I have spent so much time into that system and just dont wantet to loose it! [08:19] ok [08:19] now we need to exit out of chroot and unmount everything [08:20] just type exit [08:20] ok - prompt changes back [08:20] then unmount: sudo umount /mnt [08:20] and reboot into your system :) [08:21] ok - i do, i do, i do ^^ [08:21] then come here, and let's get google maps installed [08:21] see you in a second when everything works fine :) [08:21] ok [08:25] Hola [08:27] Hi x2xx3x [08:27] hi [08:27] did it work? [08:28] yes, [08:28] nice [08:28] all my settings are still there :) [08:28] very nice :) [08:28] you can actually reinstall without losing your settings [08:28] in your home folder press Ctrl+H, there's a bunch of hidden files, just copy them somewhere and back into your new system [08:29] yes i have got 2 backups right now [08:29] are you on a 64-bit ubuntu?

[08:41] or type google, and hit tab twice [08:42] no suggestions from the terminal [08:42] did you complete all the steps? [08:42] yes? [08:43] apt-cache search earth | grep -i google [08:43] oh damn [08:43] is it uninstalling all the stuff again? :) [08:43] i see it downloads no package - i have to do this myself [08:44] in the very first line [08:44] right now i'm trying to break their instructions and use googleearth-package on a 64-bit system, but not break the system :D [08:46] and there it is [08:46] you know what [08:46] it works [08:47] you dont really need to download it [08:47] it seems [08:47] i got it installed with googleearth-package [08:48] :) [08:48] did you save the irc log?

MORE POWER TO ITS "TEAM CREATORS!" === john_ is now known as Guest80446 [12:19] Installed tor but it's not working. http://pastebin.com/tyhBNeuE [13:25] Hello. [13:25] I'm trying to configure a VNC with a computer in local net. [13:26] Both Ubuntu-Mate 14.04. [13:26] Installed Vino in server computer and configured the password and not to confirm the remote using. [13:26] Installed Remmina and Vinagre in this computer... but none of them find the other computer. [13:27] Nor with the IP, neither by looking for it. [13:27] I didn't change the port, neither. [13:31] hi MarioMey [13:31] MarioMey, I don't think installing Vino in Xenial makes it start automatically [13:31] Try and start it manually on your server from a terminal [13:32] command: /usr/lib/vino/vino-server [13:32] ouroumov, Ubuntu is Trusty... [13:32] Oh, let me see... [13:32] MarioMey, oh [13:32] Right, sorry, read too fast [13:32] Well, that's weird. Are you sure you configured your client properly? [13:32] My config is the following: [13:33] Yes, I tried it with a Virtual Box here... and it was not activated. I'm trying with the real computer. [13:33] Right now... [13:35] ouroumov, you said. [13:35] I though that vino, when installed, it got activated. [13:36] MarioMey, in 14.04 I think it does [13:36] it does get activated * [13:36] Anyway on the server you got to go to the program vino-preferences and enable desktop sharing [13:37] On the client: Set Remmina to new VNC connection, in 'Basic' input the server's IP then go to SSH tab and check "Enable SSH tunnel", "Tunnel via loopback" and provide username [13:38] On the server issue the command: gsettings set org.gnome.Vino network-interface lo [14:19] ouroumov: if I don't run vino-server, it doesn't work. [14:19] I just close the server by Ctrl-C in terminal that I run the server... now, I can't find it. [14:20] Maybe, when vino was installed, it goes to Startup Applications... but I don't know [14:20] I didn't reboot that computer. [14:20] Now, I have a doubt... [14:20] Can't I use JPG compression with Remmina? [14:25] MarioMey, I don't know about the compression [14:25] MarioMey, at least if you're running 14.04 you'll have a clear path to set vino as a service. I haven't found how to do that in systemd yet [14:27] ouroumov, JPG compression starts at 15bits color. 256 has no compression. [14:27] What is systemd? [14:28] The new init system [14:28] OH. [14:29] MarioMey, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers [14:34] Ok... good luck with that. I prefer staying in 14.04. [14:34] (for the moment) [14:34] Not blaming you [14:48] hi all [14:50] Other topic: [14:50] I'm testing Virtual-Box with Ubuntu-Mate. [14:50] By installing Guest-Addition in the conventional way, it didn't work. [14:50] So, I installed by terminal. [14:51] It works, the screen changes its dimensions. [14:51] But I want to configure a shared folder... and it ask me for GuestAdditions... [14:51] How should I mount it? [14:52] The folder doesn't appear in Net folders. [14:56] Sorry MarioMey, my VB-foo is a little rusty. You're welcome to wait for someone else to provide an answer and you can also post on the forum: more exposure [14:57] Ok, thanks. [15:01] MarioMey, install guest additions, it can be obtained the same website you should've gotten vb, which isn't the software center [15:01] I'm reinstalling it, with a video-tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsVi3ulnO0Y [15:02] (video: 15.10, mine: 14.04 [15:02] )) [15:02] oh, rock on then [15:05] randall: I've reinstalled GuestAdditions and reboot. [15:05] ed [15:05] But I can't find shared folders. [15:06] It can't show "network:///", it says. [15:06] you gotta set those up seperatly, before you log into your virtual machine [15:06] should I turn it off? [15:08] yeah, you gotta, then go into the settings for that virtual machine and look around for shared folders [15:09] NSF is great for virtual machines [15:09] Hey guys, I'm having a little bit of an issue. Whenever software updater pops up in my system tray, I click it and it disappears. Not only that but after it disappears, I start having issues with my keyboard. Shortcuts such as the volume and mute keys stop working. [15:09] Or smb if you need windows zupport too [15:09] *running programs list (not system tray). [15:10] hmm [15:11] randall: I did it... and I still can't access to them. [15:11] MarioMey, you loaded the guest additions into the vb and clicked to install inside the vb right? [15:12] I installed by running file.run [15:12] I installed it some days ago by doing: [15:12] sudo apt install virtualbox-guest-additions-iso [15:13] NeueMann, open a terminal and type 'lsof +D /dev/input' [15:13] yes, now you gotta add that iso to the vb where you once had the iso to install that os in that vb [15:14] Where is that iso? [15:14] look in your downloads folder [15:14] fifty-sevenC what is that supposed to do? [15:15] list anything using your keyboard or mouse [15:15] Nothing was printed. [15:15] Actually do 'sudo !!' [15:15] It will print this time [15:16] hello I am using ubuntu-mate and I changed the default terminal app but it is not changing when I use ctrl+alt+t. Anyone know why? [15:16] randall: you say that by installing virtualbox-gest-additions-iso, a ISO file was copied to Downloads? [15:16] There's nothing there... [15:17] NeueMann, ? [15:17] hang on MarioMey I'm gonna do do that and see if I can see where it went [15:17] http://pastebin.com/mevYZvjj [15:17] Ok [15:18] Looks normal to me [15:18] :( [15:18] You could always try restarting your session. [15:19] ctrl+alt+bckspce but this will kill all your open apps [15:19] And now it's working again. Then the software updates will popup in my running programs, I will click it, and everything will stop. I have rebooted several times. [15:19] Well maybe whatever it was had terminated before running lsof so wasn't listed? [15:20] The software updates dialog doesn't even come up though. Once I click it, it terminates and I have to run apt-get dist-upgrade in the terminal. [15:25] randall: it seems that the folder is already there... but I can't access it. [15:25] In /media, there is /sf_paquete ("paquete" is the name of the folder) [15:25] I gotta do it meself to be able to tell you how to do it [15:25] I got denied access. [15:25] Ok. [15:26] NeueMann, try sudo apt-get install --reinstall update-notifier [15:27] Now we wait. . . :) [15:31] MarioMey, I had to install vb first, now I'm making a virtual machine, I'll get back to you when it's done [15:31] Oh, thanks! [15:33] Eehehh..... I had 4.3.36.... now, I'm downloading 5.0.16! [15:33] Let's see if something different happens... [15:34] it might [15:38] No, nothing. [15:41] hey MarioMey, just to eliminate it as a possibility, check the permissions on that folder on the host os [15:49] Hello can anyone help me change the default keybind for terminal to open terminator [16:12] jbicha, o/ [16:12] jbicha, I've got some GNOME package merge-proposals. [16:13] I'm not sure how far your upload/sponsor rights extend? [16:13] But you've seen one, I could really use these in time for 16.10 Alpha 1. [16:13] https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mate-dev/yelp/mate-compatibility/+merge/297171 [16:13] I can upload anything in universe currently [16:13] https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mate-dev/cheese/caja-compatibility/+merge/298141 [16:13] so unfortunately not yelp or cheese [16:13] OK
