| Rob_Wilco | TGVoid, have you tried making an image to work with just in case using something like clonezilla? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: Although last time I did that, I used a SATA/IDE->USB converter cable, hooked the drive up to a functional Ubuntu system, and ran testdisk on it. | 00:00 |
| TGVoid | Rob_Wilco: No. I only have enough space to get my files out, so I can't clone the image | 00:02 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: Is it safe? | 00:03 |
| dax | is the corruption because of software failure or hardware failure | 00:04 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: Safe how? | 00:04 |
| TGVoid | dax: I'm not sure. I think software | 00:04 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: Will it modify my image? | 00:04 |
| python90210 | why does it take so long to identify/register | 00:04 |
| dax | if software failure: any read-only mechanism is safe. if hardware failure: no mechanism is safe and every time you touch it you risk further data loss | 00:04 |
| python90210 | unbelievable | 00:04 |
| dax | python90210: because you ask in unrelated channels instead of talking to staff directly or waiting to be voiced in #freenode | 00:04 |
| python90210 | can't get into freenode without registering | 00:05 |
| k1l | honestly i would not touch that drive too often. use ddrescue to get an image of the disk and try to rescue at that image. | 00:05 |
| dax | python90210: yes, you can. you need to wait to be voiced, as the channel topic there says | 00:05 |
| python90210 | #freenode | 00:05 |
| TGVoid | dax: I made an image of the drive and the drive is gone. I have only the image to work with | 00:05 |
| dax | then any read-only mechanism is safe. personally, when doing computer forensics i keep two copies of the drive image | 00:06 |
| dax | because while my tools are safe i am occasionally an idiot | 00:06 |

| Pencil2 | wow my ubuntu updates daily. | 00:08 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: Ah, sorry...I'm bouncing between rooms here. No, it won't modify the image. It only copies stuff from it, IMHO. | 00:08 |

| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: How do I get it going? | 00:09 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: It's been a while. Hmm. You aren't running Ubuntu off of the damaged partition/disk in question, right? | 00:10 |

| JFlash | how do I connect to a local websocket server from the command line? | 00:10 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: I'm trying to find the docs. It has been a loooong while since I used testdisk. I only know it works | 00:11 |
| k1l | well testdisk tries to repair the partitiontable. its not read-only | 00:11 |
| CodeMouse92 | k1l, TGVoid, mm, yeah, finding that now. Probably best to work off a disk image. | 00:12 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: My disk is gone and I only have an image of it. My drive was replaced when I sent it in for repair | 00:13 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: Make a copy of the image, then. :) | 00:13 |
| CodeMouse92 | I found instructions at http://computriks.com/en/recover-file-testdisk. These look like the set I used. | 00:13 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: I can | 00:14 |
| k1l | maybe you mean photorec. that is in the testdisk package too. that looks out for data | 00:14 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: I can't copy the image. I only have enough space for my image and the files | 00:14 |

| [TiZ] | Hi there. I installed an nvidia-364 package which creates a hook in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks. This hook inserts the nvidia_364 driver into the initramfs, which causes it to start my optimus card on boot. I need that to not happen. What can I do to disable that hook? | 00:17 |
| TGVoid | k1l: Is there a solution that keeps names? | 00:21 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: testdisk, but then you'd be modifying the image | 00:21 |

| Guest58989 | gracias | 00:25 |
| TGVoid | k1l: Will photorec keep files in the same directory? | 00:27 |
| TGVoid | k1l: And can Testdisk modify the image so it's unusable, or just modify it? | 00:28 |
| k1l | no. it will just look for files and get them out of the image to the destination selected. | 00:28 |
| parsjot | I used a photo as the desktop background and when I went to change back to the defaults they were all gone. Any idea what I did? usr/share/backgrounds and usr/share/wallpapers don't have them...and the drop down menu in desktop settings has "backgrounds" in it but it's blank | 00:28 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: I can answer that second one. testdisk will attempt to modify the image to make it usable, yes. | 00:28 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Did you possibly uninstall 'ubuntu-wallpapers'? | 00:29 |
| k1l | TGVoid: honestly: i would make another copy of that image and try to work on that. i would start with looking for partitions. if they are ok i would try to mount them and see if a fsck can get something done. | 00:29 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: k1l Does Testdisk keep files in directories in which they're found? | 00:29 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: It attempts to, yes. | 00:29 |
| parsjot | not intentionally...literally all I did was go to desktop settings and select a photo in my Pictures directory...then didn't like it and wanted to switch back but can't | 00:30 |
| guilherme | hello | 00:30 |
| parsjot | i never chose to remove anything or selected any other options | 00:30 |
| TGVoid | k1l: The problem is that I have 2 1 TB drives with a 977 GB image | 00:30 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Weird. Just in case, in the Terminal, try running "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-wallpapers" | 00:30 |
| guilherme | plese | 00:30 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Or, actually, better: "sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-wallpapers" | 00:31 |
| parsjot | CodeMouse92: I am on Xubuntu 16.04 and did xubuntu-wallpapers and the output was that its already on the latest version | 00:31 |

| CodeMouse92 | "sudo apt-get install --reinstall xubuntu-wallpapers" | 00:31 |

| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: Don't forget to run "sudo apt-get update" first | 00:33 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: That...should be working. Are you sure you typed "--reinstall" exactly? | 00:34 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: Same error | 00:34 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: So...sudo apt-get update is failing? | 00:34 |
| parsjot | nope typo...working on it | 00:34 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: Assuming you have a working internet connection, run "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get install testdisk". testdisk should be in the main repos | 00:35 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: "W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead." | 00:35 |

| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: They should. Depends on the stick. | 00:36 |
| CodeMouse92 | Ubuntu is usually pretty friendly with those, though. | 00:36 |

| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Ooookay, I wonder if you run 'sudo apt-get purge xubuntu-wallpapers', and THEN install them? | 00:53 |
| parsjot | will try..but again this is under "backgrounds" not "wallpapers"....there are some things in wallpapers but not the default missing ones | 00:54 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: It appears you need to run "testdisk theimage.dd" or whatever | 00:54 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: What format is your image in? | 00:54 |
| parsjot | the directories in wallpapers are old Ubuntu stuff like Joy and Joy_Inksplat...not the nice pictures or 16.04 background that was in the desktop settings menu | 00:55 |

| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: Testdisk detects it as none, but it's an image of an NTFS drive. Do I choose "None" or "Intel"? | 01:04 |
| parsjot | but if I cant even change a default setting without it removing something it is a problem | 01:04 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: Technically your image is exactly that - an exact copy of the hard drive,. | 01:04 |
| Arcaire | Linux is great and all but damn it has far, far too many rough edges. | 01:04 |

| Arcaire | My server boxen are fine, my desktop is just | 01:04 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: That's tough. Part of me thinks you should trust Testdisk, and the other part of me thinks you should go with Intel, since that's what the disk *should* have been | 01:04 |
| parsjot | sponix: yes....its not me...it's things like choosing one of a few choices from a setting menu and clicking "ok" and when I do the whole app disappears | 01:05 |
| parsjot | things like that | 01:05 |

| parsjot | CodeMouse92: yep! put it back to mono 10pt and its good...maybe I somehow changed it with a shortcut etc | 01:11 |
| Superuser | ?? | 01:11 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Maybe. | 01:11 |
| parsjot | but dont see a way to do so with scrolling...so not sure...is there a way to change font size other than the selection menu in preferences? becuse that wasnt open | 01:12 |
| CodeMouse92 | Superuser: Please be patient. There are only so many people here, and if someone knows the answer, they'll post it. Wait several minutes in between reposts at least. | 01:12 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Apparently by poltergeist? | 01:12 |
| parsjot | cant seem to duplicte enlaring it with mousepad or heavy handedness | 01:12 |
| thetruth_ | does anyone know how to overclock my asus x99 delux motherboard? I just built my first rig and put a few thousand dollars into it and want it to run at its full potential. and which benchmarks should I run or are the most important? and what are some good programs to run the benchmarks for linux, specifically ubuntu Thanks! | 01:13 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: In all seriousness, I'm not sure. What terminal program was that. Just xcfe-terminal? | 01:13 |
| parsjot | yep | 01:13 |
| parsjot | default whatever that is I assume xfce? | 01:13 |
| k1l | !benchmark | 01:13 |
| ubottu | Packages for bechmarking your system include bonnie++ (for drives), glmark2 (for 3D graphics), netperf (for networking), mbw (for memory) - For more, issue the !terminal command « apt-cache search benchmark » - See also !testing | 01:13 |
| parsjot | yeah xfce terminal | 01:13 |
| k1l | thetruth_: see the bots message | 01:13 |
| parsjot | 0.6.3 | 01:13 |
| Tin_man | i've seen bad keyboards do some strange things before.. | 01:13 |
| HackerII | thetruth_ burn it in before you decide to clock it | 01:14 |
| thetruth_ | whats burn it? | 01:14 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: Should I use Quick Search or Backup? | 01:14 |
| parsjot | ok so problem that became a problem in the middle of another problem is back to normal | 01:14 |
| k1l | parsjot: press "crtl -" | 01:14 |
| parsjot | now back to the background stuff | 01:14 |
| thetruth_ | and what is !terminal | 01:14 |
| HackerII | thetruth_ ya, wait a week or so, + make sure the north bridge has a good heat sink in it, or, forget it' | 01:14 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: I'd quicksearch. See what you find | 01:15 |
| parsjot | k1l: that didnt affect terminal ....just browser | 01:15 |
| k1l | parsjot: it effects the window that is in focus | 01:15 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: If it finds your partition, congrats. If not, you'll want to run Deep Search | 01:15 |
| parsjot | k1l: I mean when I did it in terminal it had no effect....just put a - in the display | 01:16 |
| k1l | thetruth_: "apt-cache search benchmark" in terminal will show you the packages that include some benchmarks | 01:16 |
| CodeMouse92 | thetruth_: Also, beware that overclocking is aptly named - it's pushing it beyond the ideal limits of the CPU. Use with caution. | 01:16 |
| parsjot | it seemed to ignore the ctrl | 01:16 |
| k1l | parsjot: hold the ctrl then press - | 01:16 |
| parsjot | the weird thing about the terminal thing is it opened enlarged....it was already huge pt size when it opened...the time bfore it was normal | 01:17 |
| parsjot | k1l: I did...Im dumb but not THAT dumb ;) | 01:17 |
| thetruth_ | I don tcare if i fry the cpu ill just get a new one | 01:17 |
| k1l | try with shift too. some devices seem to block single ctrl | 01:17 |
| parsjot | its funny...every time I come in here asking for help some new things go wrong while we are trying to figure out the old things...maybe I shouldnt tempy fate? | 01:18 |
| thetruth_ | obviously i dont want to do anything supre reckless I just want it to be as fast as possible | 01:18 |
| parsjot | i cant imagine ever being proficient at this stuff | 01:18 |
| CodeMouse92 | thetruth_: The non-overclocked mode is the non-risky "fast as possible". Beyond that, you're taking a risk | 01:19 |
| jim | thetruth_: overclocking is a risky, fairly extreme action, that is informed by your intimate knowledge of cpus and hardware... unless you're prepared to replace your cpu after overclocking too much destroys it, you should consider not trying this | 01:19 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: It comes with time. benefit to getting weird glitches, you learn how the system is put together a whoooole lot faster | 01:19 |
| Superuser | In which file to place an entry for allotting a shell while user creation? | 01:20 |
| CodeMouse92 | thetruth_: Possibly stupid question: did you mount your CPU to the motherboard yourself, or is it integrated into the motherboard? | 01:20 |
| Superuser | ? | 01:20 |
| Arcaire | Superuser: //etc/adduser.conf | 01:20 |
| thetruth_ | ok i gona run some benchmarks and see where im at | 01:20 |
| thetruth_ | yea I did, I also water cooled it | 01:21 |
| thetruth_ | im not an idiot ive just never done this before so im figuring everythign out as I go | 01:21 |
| CodeMouse92 | thetruth_: Ah, okay, so you know what you're getting into, then :) | 01:21 |
| Arcaire | Superuser: Or, if you're using useradd, there's a skeleton file in /etc/default/useradd with the SHELL variable, which you can change. | 01:21 |
| Superuser | And by default which shell is allotted? | 01:21 |
| Arcaire | Er, I think it's /bin/bash. | 01:21 |
| CodeMouse92 | (And we never said you're an idiot. Many people just don't know enough about this fairly advanced topic to know what they're getting into. You can't know what you don't know until you know it.) | 01:22 |
| CodeMouse92 | thetruth_: ^^ | 01:22 |
| OerHeks | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ChangingShells#Changing_your_login_shell_which_is_permanent | 01:22 |
| thetruth_ | true | 01:22 |
| thetruth_ | im a hands on kinda guy im sure ill fry a few things till i get it right but thats the only way to learn | 01:23 |
| parsjot | ok so does anyone know where I can redownload the default xubuntu 16.04 wallpapers that were in the "usr/share/backgrounds directory? Google only shows me articles about them.. | 01:23 |
| parsjot | my f.lux also disappered....w....t....f | 01:23 |
| parsjot | maybe I need to just do a reinstall | 01:23 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: I was just about to say,... | 01:23 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: By the way, what led you to XCFE specifically? | 01:23 |
| CodeMouse92 | *Xubuntu | 01:24 |
| parsjot | I just liked it at first use...could make it look as I wanted simply | 01:24 |
| k1l_ | parsjot: why not use redshift which is in the ubuntu repos? | 01:24 |
| parsjot | and I hve an old laptop and it was suppose to be lighter | 01:24 |
| thetruth_ | whats a good text to speech program for dictation | 01:24 |
| parsjot | k1l_: redshift didnt work the same for me....wouldnt let me adjust it for temp.... | 01:24 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Fair enough. Yeah, go for a fresh install. One hint when you do: partition your hard drive yourself. 50GB for /, a swap space the same size as your RAM, and the rest for /home | 01:24 |
| parsjot | ok | 01:25 |
| CodeMouse92 | That way, if the system borks again, you can reinstall the system (/) without destroying your files and program configs (/home) | 01:25 |
| Superuser | Hey just to know if I create a new user and I want not to allow it's login temporarily, then what to do for that. I mean if there is an entry as such in that shell file? | 01:25 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Do you have another way to get into IRC during the install? | 01:25 |
| CodeMouse92 | (i.e. a smartphone) | 01:25 |
| parsjot | tablet....but not going to do it tonight | 01:26 |
| k1l_ | parsjot: really? redshift -t 6500:6200 is easy to test | 01:26 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Yeah, just checking. Always good to have. | 01:26 |
| jim | thetruth_: make sure you know the temperature limits of your cpu, and can monitor the temp as you try to adjust... (but again, if you're not financially prepared to replace a destroyed cpu, you probably shouldn't push the cpu beyond its rated limits | 01:26 |
| CodeMouse92 | thetruth_: +1 to jim. By the way, psensor is awesome for monitoring CPU temperature and issuing alerts. | 01:27 |
| parsjot | CodeMouse92: the big problem is I dont know why these things are happenig today...so I can't prevent them again if it was me inadvertantly doing something...but I didn't do anything overt other than select menu options | 01:27 |
| parsjot | the docky thing was a docky bug...but this stuff I dont know why they occur | 01:27 |
| jim | cpus will get hotter if you do cpu-intensive things... like if you do a lot of compiling | 01:28 |
| parsjot | imagine you selected a different theme in appearance settings and suddenly the other themes were gone | 01:28 |
| parsjot | its stuff like this | 01:28 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: Yeah, I've seen stuff *like* this before on rare occasion, but never could figure it out. | 01:28 |
| Tin_man | try a different flavor parsjot, maybe you got a bad iso, or reinstall your current version. | 01:29 |
| parsjot | I have 1mbps internet so even getting a new iso takes all night...bit of a pain | 01:29 |
| thetruth_ | CodeMouse92, nice thank you! | 01:29 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot, Tin_man: Ah, that's a possibility! Check the checksum on the iso first | 01:29 |
| thetruth_ | im wanted a good monitoring program | 01:29 |
| parsjot | I actually did that | 01:29 |
| CodeMouse92 | parsjot: And it matches? (If so, it's a good ISO | 01:29 |
| parsjot | as the first couple of live USBs I made were wonky....everything with the iso checked out and using dd command made a bottable USB fine | 01:30 |
| sujeet | I want to add multiple IPs not in a consecutive CIDR to eth0. It looks like you have to add extra stanzas in /etc/network/interfaces for virtual ifaces like eth0:0 eth0:1 etc. What is the point of this? Why can't I just add the extra IPs directly to eth0? | 01:30 |
| gabriel_ | oi | 01:30 |
| gabriel_ | Por favor me ajudem | 01:30 |
| parsjot | but unetbootin etc didnt work right | 01:30 |
| CodeMouse92 | I've gotta head out for a bit. Good luck parsjot and TGVoid! | 01:30 |
| parsjot | so the iso is good | 01:30 |
| gabriel_ | I need help | 01:30 |
| parsjot | thanks codemouse | 01:30 |
| thetruth_ | whats a good tool for taking a screenshot and sharing it here? | 01:30 |
| Superuser | Do you know how to use do command to make an iso from did? | 01:30 |
| gabriel_ | I need help pls | 01:30 |
| CodeMouse92 | gabriel_: Don't ask to ask. Just post your question. | 01:31 |
| Superuser | *dd command | 01:31 |
| gabriel_ | ok sorry | 01:31 |
| parsjot | Superuser: are you asking me? | 01:31 |
| gabriel_ | code mouse you help me ?? | 01:31 |
| somsip | gabriel_: ask the channel - dont ask people directly | 01:31 |
| CodeMouse92 | gabriel_: I don't know if I can or not. You haven't asked anything yet. Ask the channel. :) | 01:31 |
| gabriel_ | i need help to disable tcp_timestamps | 01:31 |
| CodeMouse92 | (And, anyway, I'm heading out) | 01:31 |
| Tin_man | well i've got a really slow internet also, but i've tried about every ubuntu out there, and some were hardware buggy, not the os's fault, just bad drivers,and such, but I found the one I enjoy, and it took a lot of trial and error.. | 01:32 |
| somsip | gabriel_: in what context? | 01:32 |
| parsjot | Tin_man: which was that? | 01:32 |
| gabriel_ | i am brazilian PT BRAZIL | 01:32 |

| sujeet | This is what my interfaces looks like atm: http://pastebin.com/Pbq5Q2fY | 01:32 |
| somsip | gabriel_: what are you trying to do that needs tcp_timestamps to be disabled? | 01:32 |
| Tin_man | right now ubuntu, but i'm running linux mint kde 17.03 with a dual boot.. | 01:32 |
| parsjot | Superuser: I just followed guide for dd...and it worked well...but can't say I "understand" it exactly | 01:32 |
| Tin_man | right now i'm on windows.. | 01:33 |
| gabriel_ | YES | 01:33 |
| gabriel_ | YES SOMSIP | 01:33 |
| parsjot | just did "sudo dd bs=4M if=/path of=/dev/sdb && sync" and it was good as gravy | 01:33 |
| reisio | dd takes input (if) and output (of) | 01:34 |
| gabriel_ | Somsip ??? | 01:34 |
| reisio | bs just makes it work faster if used right | 01:34 |
| reisio | and sync is an unfortunate thing we use for usb sticks | 01:34 |
| CodeMouse92 | gabriel_: somsip needs to know *what* you are doing. :) | 01:34 |

| gabriel_ | ok guys | 01:36 |

| jazzmyn | Hello | 01:45 |
| reisio | 'lo | 01:46 |
| thetruth_ | gabriel_ you were an expert when you started? you just miraculously knew how to do everything? | 01:47 |
| Superuser | somsip : I think the best choose answer in that means there is certainly no password by default and you cannot login to that user from outside of root until you set one. Is is so? | 01:47 |
| somsip | Superuser: yes | 01:48 |
| DeaDSouL | i'm logged as user1 ... how can i login as user2 from user1 ? | 01:48 |
| somsip | DeaDSouL: does user1 have sudo rights? | 01:49 |
| DeaDSouL | somsip: no | 01:49 |
| somsip | DeaDSouL: do you know user2's password? | 01:49 |
| DeaDSouL | somsip: yes | 01:49 |
| somsip | DeaDSouL: use "su {user}" check the options in case you want to do something else | 01:51 |
| Superuser | somsip : so still requires sudo priviledges | 01:51 |
| Superuser | *sy | 01:52 |
| Superuser | *su | 01:52 |
| DeaDSouL | Superuser: no, su user2 ;) | 01:52 |
| somsip | Superuser: does su require superuser or does it ask for password? man page suggests password but I've never run from a non-sudo account so happy to be corrected | 01:52 |
| DeaDSouL | right :) | 01:52 |
| reisio | it asks for password | 01:53 |
| reisio | root's password | 01:53 |
| reisio | so yes, it requires "superuser" access | 01:53 |
| somsip | reisio: ah - fair enough. | 01:53 |
| reisio | unless of course you're using it to switch to another user that isn't root | 01:53 |
| reisio | then it'll ask for that user's password | 01:53 |
| somsip | reisio: which is what he wants, so it is usable maybe. DeaDSouL - did it work? | 01:53 |
| DeaDSouL | reisio: no, it will ask you for the user you want to login as's password | 01:56 |
| DeaDSouL | yes, exactly.. | 01:57 |
| reisio | no comment :p | 01:57 |
| Superuser | Is /etc/useradd conf | 01:59 |
| === Renato is now known as Guest20598 | ||
| reisio | a file? Quite possibly | 01:59 |
| Superuser | * /etc/useradd.conf the file that is used by default to allocate shell and that provides all configurations to new user while using useradd? | 02:01 |

| reisio | Superuser: it's probably useradd's main config file, yes | 02:04 |

| thetruth_ | sorry this is my first time on irc | 02:05 |
| Superuser | Hey found something like a bug, just open that file and watch that a default path /home is | 02:05 |
| thetruth_ | whats wrong with getting different opinions tho? | 02:06 |
| Superuser | Given but there is no home did created for new user | 02:06 |
| Superuser | Using useradd | 02:06 |
| HackerII | thetruth_ ubuntu-offtopic is a good place for opinions | 02:06 |
| thetruth_ | so what is this for then? | 02:07 |
| HackerII | support | 02:07 |
| Superuser | Can anyone justufy | 02:07 |
| thetruth_ | i mean I need help with my gpu's I dont think they are performing. I just built the rig | 02:07 |
| Superuser | *justify | 02:07 |
| thetruth_ | its my first build also | 02:07 |
| HackerII | thetruth_ post your problem in one line to the room, someone will get to you. | 02:08 |
| thetruth_ | HackerII, ok got it | 02:08 |
| thetruth_ | so I just built my first rig, I have dual r9-390x and I just ran a benchmark and I want to know if they are performing to par for having 2 of them? here is the benchmark http://imgur.com/DwztY4T | 02:10 |
| parsjot | anyone know where I can get the Xubuntu 16.04 default wallpapers? | 02:11 |
| parsjot | installing "xubuntu-wallpapers" doesn't do it | 02:11 |

| Bashing-om | parsjot: Don't know if this helps: https://packages.debian.org/jessie/all/desktop-base/filelist ; but maybe ?? | 02:18 |
| uschxc | is it possible to use ~/.config/autostart/blah.desktop with a command that has an "=" in it already? AE_SINK=alsa kodi ? | 02:19 |
| Superuser | Who manages the webchat.freenode.net irc. The recaptcha verification feels more like an interview challenge to judge IQI. | 02:20 |
| reisio | uschxc: sure it's not working? Try quotes if not | 02:20 |
| Superuser | *IQ | 02:20 |
| parsjot | Bashing-om: thanks but that seems to be older and debian stuff | 02:20 |
| reisio | Superuser: there aren't a lot of captchas to choose from | 02:21 |
| uschxc | yes, kodi not launching at login. if I run the command from a command prompt, it works. | 02:21 |
| uschxc | I've tried ' and " quotes | 02:21 |
| parsjot | somehow I deleted all of the default backgrounds....all I did was make a photo I had the background...then went to swtich it bacl...but the defaults were missing | 02:21 |
| parsjot | no idea how it happend and I can't seem to find a package to reinstall them | 02:21 |
| uschxc | if I take out the AE_SINK=Alsa part, kodi launches (but sound won't work) | 02:21 |
| reisio | uschxc: make a shell script then | 02:22 |
| reisio | call the script from the .desktop | 02:22 |
| reisio | or export AE_SINK in ~/.bashrc, etc. | 02:22 |
| uschxc | yeah that was my next option, just curious if I was missing somehting | 02:22 |
| reisio | I try not to spend too much time on freedesktop nonsense :p | 02:22 |
| uschxc | I'm way too casual a linux user to have a horse in any of the races | 02:23 |
| uschxc | path of least resistance basically for me | 02:23 |
| reisio | which is a shell script, IMO :p | 02:23 |
| linux | Which is the history file for root ? | 02:24 |
| uschxc | launched via freedesktop nonsense, right? | 02:24 |

| parsjot | yep | 02:29 |
| parsjot | its not them | 02:29 |
| parsjot | i am at a loss for how they disappeared | 02:30 |
| tikun | hmm | 02:30 |
| parsjot | i took a photo....set is as desktop...then wanted to swtich bad to the defaults but they had all disapeared | 02:30 |
| parsjot | literally all I did was set a photo....then try to revert...I didn't move or remove anything | 02:30 |

| ooze_ | uh yeah it didnt work | 08:47 |

| mintux | i have some files in a directory with large size for download i need to convert them to one file so what is fast compression command that it made this file very fast ? i don't need to reduce size | 08:55 |
| Ben64 | so pretty sure that means you got the big ssl bug | 08:55 |
| Ben64 | mintux: tar | 08:56 |

| Allanitomwesh | hello | 09:14 |
| Allanitomwesh | is there a version of Ubuntu that comes with GNOME? | 09:14 |
| somsip | !flavors | Allanitomwesh | 09:14 |
| ubottu | Allanitomwesh: Recognized Ubuntu flavors build on Ubuntu and provide a different user experience out of the box. They are supported both in #ubuntu and in their flavor channel. The current list is: !Edubuntu, !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, Ubuntu !Kylin, !Lubuntu, !Mythbuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, !Xubuntu, and Ubuntu !MATE | 09:14 |
| bazhang | Allanitomwesh, gnome-shell if thats what you mean ; unity is gnome3 as well | 09:15 |
| Allanitomwesh | ubuntu-GNOME sounds right | 09:16 |
| Allanitomwesh | has GNOME 3 right? | 09:16 |
| bazhang | Allanitomwesh, they all are, with the possible exception of flashback | 09:18 |
| === cpaelzer is now known as cpaelzer_away | ||

| === trench_ is now known as trench | ||
| Allanitomwesh | Soul_Sample: Shotwell? | 09:29 |
| YankDownUnder | ...Darktable is also a good on - very professional - awesome quality and interface - along with some really nice effects... | 09:31 |
| vooze | After upgrading to kernel 4.4.0-28 (from 24) I cant login, lightdm loads and after typing pw it just blinks and goes back. Also the solution looks like "nomodeset" What could cause this? | 09:33 |

| ret2libc | i know it's a strange question here,but ... is it possible to install wayland and run unity on it? | 09:35 |
| ret2libc | wayland at the moment seems muuch more ready than unity8 on desktop (that unfortunately doesn't do (almost) anything :( ) | 09:36 |
| Allanitomwesh | Wayland is nice | 09:39 |
| ret2libc | Allanitomwesh: yeah! I'd like to see also unity8 on mir but at the moment it's really just a POC on desktop :( | 09:47 |

| js3 | i'm facing a problem on login | 09:48 |
| js3 | after i enter my credentials | 09:48 |
| bazhang | js3, all on one line please | 09:48 |
| js3 | desktop isn't loading and i'm stuck with the initial login background | 09:48 |
| Soul_Sample | YankDownUnder: darktable is an overkill, I do stock images in blender/gimp and just need something to tag them with before uploading to multiple services. I'll give Shotwell a go, I completely forgot about that, thanks! | 09:49 |
| === Zhao is now known as Guest84216 | ||
| YankDownUnder | Soul_Sample, You're spot on about Darktable - however, I've had some clients go "apey" over it...personally, it's "glitz"...GIMP is my main go... | 09:50 |
| js3-2 | sorry about that bazang , | 09:51 |
| js3-2 | i'm facing a problem with my ubuntu os on login after i enter my credentials desktop isn't loading and i'm stuck with the initial login background image | 09:51 |
| Soul_Sample | YankDownUnder: Yeah, I prefer GIMP as well because I rarely deal with photos. It was enough for one stock service, but now I'm uploading to multiple and need an easy way to tag photos so I don't have to do it manually on each site. A friend recommended Adobe Bridge, but no way | 09:52 |
| Soul_Sample | js3-2: does the guest login work? | 09:52 |
| js3-2 | no | 09:52 |
| YankDownUnder | Soul_Sample, Hehehe...yeah...buy more crap from Adobe...nah...Shotwell is simple - and easy on resource...does the job. | 09:52 |
| bazhang | what version of ubuntu js3-2 | 09:53 |
| js3-2 | 16.04 | 09:53 |
| Soul_Sample | YankDownUnder: yeah, I'll see how it goes with that, I prefer donating to inkscape and gimp instead of buying crap I don't need | 09:53 |
| Soul_Sample | js3-2: did it come out of the blue, or did you do something before it broke? | 09:53 |
| js3-2 | Soul_Sample: i don't think i did something that made it broke i wasn't installing or updating anything | 09:55 |
| girish | hello there | 09:57 |
| Soul_Sample | js3-2: You should try pressing ctrl-alt-f1 and try to log in from there, perhaps it pops out some errors to give us more info. also, maybe you installed some window manager and accidentally switched session to it so unity doesn't load? my third guess is your gpu drivers | 09:57 |

| === ira is now known as Guest84652 | ||
| count | what is the problem you are trying to solve? | 10:00 |
| garshol | the .c is already a file girish. Do you want to compile it to a program? | 10:02 |
| garshol | the .c is already a file girish. Do you want to compile it to a program? | 10:02 |
| rory | girish: a c file is usually source code in C, which needs a C compiler. What are you trying to do overall, where did you get the file? | 10:02 |
| nomic | .configure make | 10:03 |
| nomic | you type .configure .. to get the make file girish | 10:03 |
| count | girish: if you have "foobar.c" and say "make foobar" it'll create an executable called "foobar" with default settings. "make foobar.o" will give you an object file. | 10:03 |
| Arcaire | Is there a known issue where Ubuntu 16.04 installs are totally broken on new CPUs or GPUs? | 10:03 |
| Arcaire | I mean the installer barely works even. | 10:03 |

| === Malsasa2 is now known as Malsasa | ||
| Arcaire | But the actual install is totally broken. | 10:03 |
| count | girish: like I said: what is the problem you are trying to solve? | 10:04 |
| js3-2 | i already tried to login from ctrl+alt+f1, no errors or warnings showed , and what should i check to make sure if it's a gpu driver issue | 10:04 |
| rory | count: that's only true if there's a makefile already there | 10:04 |

| nomic | "The configure script is responsible for getting ready to build the software on your specific system. It makes sure all of the dependencies for the rest of the build and install process are available, and finds out whatever it needs to know to use those dependencies." | 10:04 |

| ducasse | girish: are you trying to modify something in the kernel? | 10:05 |
| garshol | seems like it ducasse.. | 10:05 |
| count | rory: nope, make creates a synthetic one internally if not | 10:06 |
| girish | yes but to modify the source code need a option.c file but in kernel there is option.ko file instead of option.c | 10:06 |
| Triffid_Hunter | girish: you need kernel source | 10:07 |
| count | girish: yeah, you'll need way more than what you think you need, and you need to build all this in kernel code context. find better instructions. | 10:07 |
| Triffid_Hunter | girish: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel perhaps | 10:07 |
| count | girish: ... what Triffid_Hunter said, but maybe more specific to your context :) the instructions you found seem to be for advanced users. | 10:08 |

| Triffid_Hunter | apb1963: I mostly just use it to look at electronic component datasheets and robotics math papers | 10:13 |

| Triffid_Hunter | apb1963: sure, why not | 10:17 |
| apb1963 | While that may or may not work on an individual document basis, that's not really a permanent solution. | 10:19 |
| apb1963 | "I'm sorry Uncle Sam, but Linux isn't really compatible with PDF documents... can you change the way you do business?" | 10:19 |

| apb1963 | Triffid_Hunter: PDF is proprietary? | 10:20 |
| Triffid_Hunter | apb1963: used to be, and apparently they're sending you docs with some weird stuff embedded in it | 10:20 |
| apb1963 | The document you are trying to load requires Adobe Reader 8 or higher. You may not have the | 10:21 |
| apb1963 | Adobe Reader installed or your viewing environment may not be properly configured to use | 10:21 |

| hateball | Arcaire: While unsupported, this !PPA provides the latest drivers. 361 *should* work, but if they dont you can try 367 from it https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa | 10:59 |
| Napoelon | yes | 10:59 |
| Arcaire | Ben64: Is there any way I can boot into runlevel 3 | 10:59 |
| Ben64 | but still won't work on a vm unless configured properly | 10:59 |
| Arcaire | or whichever is single user console only mode | 10:59 |
| Arcaire | it doesn't need to work on a VM | 10:59 |
| Ben64 | Arcaire: yes you can choose recovery mode | 10:59 |
| Arcaire | The VM is a gateway to the OS | 10:59 |
| Napoelon | I can boot this install, but I'm getting an error with X11. It says its not configured properly and wants me to use low res graphics, but even that leaves a blank/black screen. | 11:00 |
| Arcaire | ehm | 11:00 |
| Arcaire | which option do i pick in recovery mode? :^) | 11:00 |
| tumtoes | Ben64, So connect my main build to my laptop using ssh? | 11:00 |
| Arcaire | root? | 11:00 |
| Ben64 | yep | 11:00 |
| Xano | Software Update tells me there is an "Ubuntu base" update available (I am on 15.10), while APT tells me there are no available updates. While at this point this is merely confusing, Software update tells me /boot is too full and suggests using `apt-get clean` to throw out files that are no longer used. That command, however, does not seem to have any effect (no output, and /boot still as full as it was before). How do I remove my old kernels on /boot? dpkg sa | 11:00 |
| Xano | ys there are several with status `rc`, which, if I interpret it correctly, indicates their data can be removed entirely. | 11:00 |
| Napoelon | Using Recovery Mode, I can startup the network and go into my root shell. | 11:00 |
| Arcaire | was that yep at me? :x | 11:00 |
| Ben64 | was at you and tumtoes | 11:00 |
| Arcaire | oh neat | 11:00 |
| Arcaire | efficiency | 11:00 |

| Napoelon | ducasse: yes. ubuntu-desktop was one that I tried. | 11:04 |
| Arcaire | Ben64, hateball: Improving. Thanks! | 11:05 |
| Arcaire | Let's see how this goes. | 11:05 |
| ziro_axis | hello guys i need help | 11:05 |
| ducasse | Napoelon: i was thinking of the xserver-xorg-video packages, but other than that i would just back up data/config and reinstall. | 11:06 |
| hateball | !help | ziro_axis | 11:06 |
| ziro_axis | i have DELL R220 with E1220, and dual port ethernet cards | 11:06 |
| ubottu | ziro_axis: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 11:06 |
| ziro_axis | when i install ubuntu 10 it did not recognize the ethernet card | 11:07 |
| ziro_axis | how to do | 11:07 |
| ikonia | ubuntu 10 is dead | 11:07 |
| ikonia | it's not supported | 11:07 |
| ziro_axis | what you mean | 11:07 |
| Xano | hateball, I was afraid autoremove would be the only option. I've got some Python packages needed by Pip installs and last time I ran autoremove they got removed as well, criplling those Pip installs. I'm still trying to work out how to prevent that from happening. | 11:07 |
| Napoelon | ducasse: the trouble I have is that I have a bunch of Uni related stuff installed and configured which I don't want to do through again as I don't have notes on (or remember) everything I did. | 11:08 |
| Arcaire | Ben64: Why does this keep trying to exit recovery mode? | 11:08 |
| Arcaire | Like I'm doing nothing waiting for the install to finish | 11:08 |
| Ben64 | Arcaire: i can't see your screen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 11:08 |
| Napoelon | ducasse: I can even SSH into it. | 11:08 |
| Xano | ziro_axis, Do you mean 15.10 perhaps? | 11:08 |
| Arcaire | and this keeps happening | 11:08 |
| Arcaire | you will in a moment | 11:08 |
| Arcaire | http://imgur.com/u30aieS | 11:08 |
| Arcaire | that happened without me interacting with it | 11:08 |
| ducasse | Napoelon: i see. where is that installed? if it's in /usr/local you can just move that across. | 11:08 |
| ziro_axis | xano, no i mean server v 10 | 11:08 |
| ikonia | ziro_axis: ubuntu 10 is end of life and not supported, sorry | 11:09 |
| Ben64 | Arcaire: you must be pressing something | 11:09 |
| Arcaire | I swear to you I'm not. | 11:09 |
| Arcaire | I'm not even connected to that VM. | 11:09 |
| Arcaire | it's just | 11:09 |
| Arcaire | view-only | 11:09 |
| ziro_axis | clear so i need to go back to 14.x | 11:09 |
| Ben64 | ziro_axis: you went from 14.04 to 10.04? | 11:10 |
| hateball | Xano: it's not the *only* option, you can manually remove each kernel | 11:10 |
| Xano | ziro_axis, See http://www.ubuntu.com/info/release-end-of-life | 11:10 |
| hateball | Xano: autoremove just tends to be the nicest, for standard setups | 11:10 |
| Napoelon | ducasse: most of it is in /home, /opt, /usr/local | 11:10 |
| ziro_axis | can you advice me now to secure my server, please point me to some websites which clearly describe how to do | 11:10 |
| ikonia | ziro_axis: there is no "how to do it" | 11:10 |
| ikonia | ziro_axis: it depends on your host | 11:10 |
| Napoelon | ducasse: but I have the desktop configures with all my icons | 11:10 |
| ikonia | ziro_axis: basically you should be running 16.04 for the current stable LTS build | 11:10 |
| ikonia | ziro_axis: you then need to asses your server and put security steps in place that matter to your specific server | 11:11 |
| Xano | hateball, OK. I'll have to fix this Python mess in the end anyway, but for now can I just remove the vmlinuz-* and config-* files from /boot if they belong to kernel versions that are no longer in use? | 11:11 |
| hateball | Arcaire: Are you install nvidia binaries on a VM? Or what is this | 11:11 |
| ducasse | Napoelon: the desktop configuration lives in /home. | 11:11 |
| Napoelon | ducasse: I am running Meld to compare both installs at the moment. | 11:11 |
| ziro_axis | at least there are some basic mut to do ? | 11:11 |
| hateball | Xano: Yep | 11:11 |
| Arcaire | hateball: It's hard to explain. | 11:11 |
| ziro_axis | must* | 11:11 |
| Napoelon | ducasse: aren't parts of it in /etc? | 11:11 |
| Arcaire | It's an installed OS on my computer. On another drive. I mounted the drive instead of a vmdk into VirtualBox | 11:12 |
| Xano | hateball, Good, thanks! And can I indeed interpret the dpkg "rc" status as that I'm able to remove those kernel versions without breaking anything? | 11:12 |
| hateball | Xano: you can use apt-get remove linux-whatever, rather than just rm | 11:12 |
| ducasse | Napoelon: not user-specific desktop stuff, no, that should all be under /home. | 11:12 |
| Xano | hateball, apt-get remove says those kernels have already been removed, but dpkg says "rc" so IIRC that means they are no longer installed, but their config files are? | 11:12 |
| hateball | Xano: as long as you dont murder your working/running kernel, you'll be fine | 11:12 |
| === phatypus_ is now known as phatypus | ||
| hateball | Xano: yes, you can use apt-get purge to remove all traces | 11:13 |
| girish | ho do i know my ubuntu kernel directory? | 11:14 |
| girish | how* | 11:14 |
| Ben64 | girish: /boot | 11:15 |
| Arcaire | Ben64: Alright so I rebooted into the OS proper and I log in but unity itself appears to be hidden. It's running (ps -ax) but there's no dock or anything. | 11:17 |
| Arcaire | I can right click to get a terminal up though. | 11:18 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: What about installed programs? Eg: ROS, Webots, and other stuff like this? | 11:18 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: TeXstudio, CodeBlocks ... | 11:19 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: The aren't installed into home | 11:19 |
| hateball | Arcaire: no dock if you run "unity --replace &" ? | 11:19 |
| girish | how to find kernel directory? | 11:20 |
| Arcaire | Nah hateball. No change. | 11:20 |
| hateball | Hmm, dunno then. I do not run Unity myself | 11:20 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: no, not repo packages. you can replicate installed packages with apt-clone, and their user config is under /home. | 11:21 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: apt-clone? I would need to downloaded packages in my cache for that wouldn't I? | 11:23 |
| girish | how to find kernel directory? | 11:23 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: no, it just copies the state of the apt/dpkg database, repos, keys etc. | 11:23 |
| hateball | Arcaire: if you run "nvidia-settings -q CurrentMetaModes" does that look sane? | 11:24 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: the packages themselves will be downloaded and installed on the recipient system. | 11:24 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: Isn't it too late for that? That's what I though I was doing when I TARred my install. | 11:24 |
| Arcaire | Error parsing query, hateball | 11:24 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: I don't have the install to clone from. | 11:25 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: I archived /var /usr /sbin /root /opt /lib64 /lib32 /lib /home /etc /boot /bin | 11:25 |
| hateball | Arcaire: hmmm, maybe it was wrong. I am on a non-nvidia machine atm so I may be off | 11:26 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: well, /home should be fine, and the list of installed packages will be the same. you have likely missed some file attributes or something. | 11:26 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: yes, like those that X11 needs ;) | 11:27 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: i'm really not sure what could be wrong, you could try looking at the x log. | 11:27 |
| RicardoJ | Hi I am on 16.04 Server and I'd like to know how to use service nginx restart without sudo. Also it is not in a shell but runned by a deployment script. I cannot figure out how to do this in 16.04. In 12.04 this was quite easy. Are there some things deprecated | 11:28 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: I have looked at it. When I get the 'low res' notice, I am able to look at the log as well as errors. There are no errors reported, but the log has warnings | 11:28 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: but i honestly think the best approach would be to reinstall, as you don't kno0w what you have missed - you will never be sure the system is consistent. | 11:28 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: glamoregl will not be loaded, stuff about font dirs not existing. But the most interesting one 'fbGetGCPrivateKey' is an unresolved symbol. | 11:29 |
| ziro_axis | in the openstack installation, what is the server requirement i want to try installing it to my system | 11:30 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: I'm still not at that stage of desperation. lol | 11:30 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: sounds like a driver thing, except the font path. | 11:30 |
| ziro_axis | i.e as LAMP or any other requirements | 11:30 |
| setti | hello | 11:31 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: that's what I think too, but no matter what I've tried so far, I haven't been able to make any difference to the result. Same outcome. I thought reinstalling Ubuntu-Desktop would do the trick. I've tried reconfiguring all the installed packages. | 11:32 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: X on U14 is called lightdm right? | 11:32 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: when running Unity. | 11:33 |
| akik | Napoelon_: the login manager is called lightdm. where did you get this U14 abbreviation? it's either 14.04 or 14.10 | 11:34 |
| Napoelon_ | akik: U14 in my case refers to U14.04 original. | 11:34 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: you can try 'sudo dpkg --verify' to see what files have changed from how they came packaged. x is called xorg-* and xserver-*, lightdm is just the display manager. | 11:34 |

| Arcaire | But it messes up on reboot again. :/ | 11:37 |
| timss | Hi. Working with a local apt repo. Added packages using 'reprepro', and built 'Packages', 'Packages.gz' with 'dpkg-scanpackages'. Now I'm getting 'E: Failed to fetch [repo]/../Packages Writing more data than expected ..'. What could be wrong? | 11:37 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: I'll try that. I'll also focus my web searches on xserver/xorg and manually installing/un-installing the proprietary drivers. | 11:39 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: I haven't been beaten yet.... | 11:39 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: still, a reinstall would be a lot less hassle... | 11:39 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: all the hardware is the same. Only difference is the install is on a different drive (but I've updated the UUID) | 11:40 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: even so. | 11:40 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: I rather tinker with the OS side of things than the software I had installed. There is a lot more info available about the OS, and the software didn't always install smoothly. | 11:40 |
| RicardoJ | Hello. I am on 16.04 Server and I'd like to know how to use 'service nginx restart' without sudo. Since the upgrade from 12.04, it doesn't work anymore. | 11:41 |

| hateball | Arcaire: yeah as I said, I dont run Unity so no idea there sorry | 11:43 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: sure, if you have the time. i always just apt-clone and keep home + a few files from /etc, and reinstall as it's usually the fastest way to go. | 11:44 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: ok, so running apt-clone is something you do from time to time? | 11:46 |
| Xano | hateball, Thanks for your help! | 11:46 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: from cron, along with other backup jobs. | 11:47 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: because I don't really know how to perform a full backup. Deja-Dup never has worked for me. I've tried DD, but I don't have a disk that is exactly the same size as what my install sits on. | 11:47 |

| hicoleri | Is this a hardware problem? | 11:55 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: right. What's in /var? I know logs are there, and other variable data (I use /var/www for my virtual hosts). What else is there? | 11:55 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: I haven't really dug through that folder structure to understand it's contents. | 11:56 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: virtual machines and containers, if you use the default config for libvirt and lxc/lxd. | 11:56 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: do they store stuff off /var or in sub-folder of /var? | 11:57 |
| ducasse | Napoelon_: subfolders, /var/lib/lxc and /var/lib/libvirt. | 11:57 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: ok. What about /var/local and /var/opt? | 11:58 |
| Napoelon_ | ducasse: they are empty on mine. | 11:59 |

| SchrodingersScat | ericbradatsch: oh, so you mean wget is working exactly as intended then :P maybe you want curl? or an option to output wget to something else, like the /dev/null. | 13:42 |

| ericbradatsch | SchrodingersScat: uh - sorry. Never thought about that... | 13:42 |

| izu1 | same exact menu | 14:02 |

| izu1 | ill revheck | 14:03 |
| izu1 | recheck | 14:03 |
| EriC^^ | try to see any bios options that might be related, also disabling secureboot is a good idea | 14:03 |

| ppf | can i install ubuntu on a second disk without booting into a live image first? | 14:19 |
| EriC^^ | ppf: you might be able to boot the iso from grub, i haven't had much luck in the newer ubuntus though | 14:19 |
| ppf | that would be booting a live image, too :) | 14:20 |
| EriC^^ | :p | 14:20 |
| ppf | i have a running ubuntu on this machine, and i'll install a second one on a second disk, do i actually have to boot a third one to do that? | 14:20 |
| EriC^^ | do you want to clone the one you have right now on the second? | 14:21 |
| Jordan_U | ppf: Yes you can do that, no it's probably not worth the hassle involved. | 14:21 |
| TGVoid | On testdisk, I did a quicksearch on an NTFS drive image of a single partition. Two partitions of the same size came up as * Linux and P Linux. Both have no files. What do I do? | 14:21 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try the deep search | 14:21 |
| ppf | EriC^^: well, cloning could be one option | 14:22 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: did you keep the default selected partition table type ? Intel or GPT etc | 14:22 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: I selected Intel, but testdisk recommended "None" | 14:22 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: It was a drive of a Windows 10 PC formatted to NTFS | 14:23 |
| EriC^^ | ppf: if it's the same exact disk size you could use dd to clone it which is pretty inefficient, or you could make the partition table and filesystems manually, mount them, rsync the contents over and then chroot and install grub | 14:23 |
| ppf | i guess i could copy all data over to the second disk. the running hard drive is going to fail in the near future, i'd prefer to stress it as little as possible | 14:23 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try EFI gpt | 14:23 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Isn't that for Mac? | 14:23 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: no, also windows 7+ | 14:23 |
| Jordan_U | TGVoid: How did the contents of this drive become "corrupted"? | 14:24 |
| izu1 | Eric is it hopeless ? anythign else i can try | 14:24 |
| TGVoid | Jordan_U: Randomly. I assume it's a software corruption | 14:24 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: what does sudo parted -l show for the disk right now? | 14:24 |
| Jordan_U | TGVoid: Have you checked the drive's S.M.A.R.T. status? | 14:24 |
| EriC^^ | izu1: nothing is coming to mind, there's a way for sure though i'd guess | 14:25 |
| ppf | is it broken hard drives day? | 14:25 |
| ppf | have there been sun storms over the weekend? :D | 14:25 |

| Hulkie | Jordan_U: i pasted earlier, 3 lines containing: undefined symbol: MD2_Update | 15:08 |
| Hulkie | Jordan_U: on a debian forum i found the bug, which they say it fixed by that package, i have ubuntu 12 | 15:08 |
| capum4321 | i am on ubuntu server 15.10 wily, where do I start to setup wifi 'ifdown wlp2s0 -> interface not configured' and 'ifup -v wlp2s0 -> ignoring unknown interface.' | 15:08 |
| Jordan_U | Hulkie: But what is your end goal? | 15:08 |
| Hulkie | an eggdrop that uses HTTP and TLS package and from time to time TRF package.. | 15:09 |
| Hulkie | which now it's not working.. | 15:09 |
| Hulkie | it's twitter/rss script for eggdrop | 15:09 |
| Jordan_U | Hulkie: Please link to the webpage for this script. | 15:10 |

| spupy | I'm starting an unmodified Openbox through lightdm (14.04) and it's starting gnome session stuff that I don't need. There is no autostart, xinitrc is empty, /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart is commented out, I just dont see where this gnome stuff is coming from | 15:12 |
| Hulkie | Jordan_U: https://github.com/eggtcl/rss-synd <- the rss | 15:12 |
| sh0t | Jordan_U, i rebooted disabled SEcure Boot but i still get the same error | 15:12 |
| kulelu88 | Hi | 15:15 |
| kulelu88 | how do I view bash history as the root user? | 15:15 |
| Jordan_U | sh0t: Please pastebin the complete output of "dmesg", which you can do automatically by running "dmesg | pastebinit". | 15:16 |
| OerHeks | kulelu88, sudo less /root/.bash_history | 15:16 |
| _arktos75_ | sudo less /root/.bash_history | 15:17 |
| kulelu88 | OerHeks: where does the .bash_history file for root stay? I couldn't find it after typing 'cd' | 15:17 |
| OerHeks | kulelu88, not sure what you expect to find there .. | 15:17 |
| kulelu88 | OerHeks: I am trying to find some of my old commands I used to install packages in a container. | 15:17 |
| Jordan_U | kulelu88: There should ideally be very little or nothing in root's bash history, as you shuold be using sudo for individual commands rather than running a shell as root (or even worse, logging in as root). | 15:17 |
| curlyears | heigh hough | 15:18 |
| OerHeks | kulelu88, those are not there. | 15:18 |
| kulelu88 | Jordan_U: my LXC containers are root, but I am now using sudo commands instead. However, I need to find some of my old install commands I did as root (for some containers) | 15:18 |
| OerHeks | kulelu88, the commands you find, were typed as user. | 15:19 |
| kulelu88 | OerHeks: even if (within the container), it says "root@app"? | 15:20 |
| OerHeks | kulelu88, not sure, though apt get logged in var/log/auth | 15:22 |
| akik | kulelu88: root's home directory is /root | 15:22 |
| Jordan_U | kulelu88: Were you running these commands inside or outside the containers? | 15:22 |
| kulelu88 | Jordan_U: inside | 15:23 |
| Hulkie | Jordan_U: any ideea? | 15:23 |
| Jordan_U | kulelu88: Then you need to look at the /root/ directory within the individual containers. | 15:24 |
| kulelu88 | thanks Jordan_U OerHeks akik | 15:25 |
| sh0t | Hi Jordan_U thanks i signed the module and now it seems to work. THanks a lot. CHeers. | 15:25 |

| fennesz | hello ! out of curiosity I have a new verbatim store n save 2tb drive. I have formated it to ext4 and the drive was constantly spinning for no reason ( the led was also blinking indicating access ) I have reformatted it to ntfs with verbatims software and now the drive stays idle? I am using Debian 8 x64 . What might be the issue? | 15:34 |
| sstory | Anyone know if this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~gwendal-lebihan-dev is safe/reliable? | 15:34 |
| samara | sstory: i use it, glebihan is in #hexchat | 15:35 |
| sstory | Thanks samara | 15:35 |
| nacc | sstory: that's not really a way to tell that, though :) | 15:35 |
| nacc | sstory: polling, I mean | 15:35 |
| sstory | nacc: OK. What do you recommend? I need a newer version of hexchat for 14.04 | 15:36 |
| nacc | sstory: why do you "need" a newer version? | 15:36 |
| sstory | The current version doesn't have the tray icon notification and it is a pain in the rump. | 15:36 |
| nacc | sstory: is that a new feature in the later versions? or a bugfix for something? | 15:37 |
| sstory | nacc: If there is a way to get the indicator working it would be nice. It does work in Centos and Windows... | 15:37 |
| junaid | Hi everyone! | 15:37 |
| sstory | nacc: hmm. I'm not sure... I was using Pidgin but since sourceforge is no longer reliable it is hard to get reliably for my Windows users | 15:37 |
| samara | glebihan: you here? :-) | 15:38 |
| nacc | sstory: and i didn't mean specifically about this package earlier. I meant that generally, PPAs are only maintained by their owner. It is purely a measure of your trust in that person/team as to whether you use it. Anyone's opinion of their reliability is just that (and I would definitely not trust someone else's opinion for "safety" measurements. YOu either are able to do that yourself, or you should not | 15:39 |
| nacc | use the PPA). | 15:39 |
| nacc | sstory: and, to be fair, you "want" to get a later version :) "need" implies that the current version doesn't work at all (IMO) | 15:39 |
| sstory | nacc: That's what I was afraid of. There is no way to know... | 15:40 |
| nacc | sstory: you can always reach out to the owner to see what their security guarantees are, but generally there aren't any | 15:40 |
| sstory | nacc: yeah.. I imagined. | 15:40 |
| sstory | nacc: Thanks! | 15:41 |
| samara | nacc: i agree that it 100% depends on whether you trust the PPA owner. Use your discretion :-) | 15:42 |
| junaid | Can anyone please confirm whether uploading a dkms package to a PPA is different than uploading normal packages? | 15:42 |
| nacc | sstory: samara: and depending on the nature of the issue, it might be a real bug, and using a PPA to workaround it means it never gets fixed in Ubuntu proper. I don't know in this case, but generally.. | 15:43 |
| sstory | OK: To "Ubuntu Proper" please fix and include a newer version of hexchat for the 14.04 distro. ;) | 15:44 |
| nacc | sstory: that's not how it works (new versions) :) | 15:44 |
| sstory | nacc: How good do inplace upgrades from 14.04 to xenial usually go? Break the world? Work well? | 15:45 |
| nacc | !ltsupgrade | sstory | 15:45 |
| ubottu | sstory: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. | 15:45 |
| nacc | sstory: your results may vary, but i would wait | 15:45 |
| sstory | ubottu: my Birthday! ;) | 15:45 |
| ubottu | sstory: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 15:45 |
| sstory | Great. Now I'm talking to machines ;) | 15:46 |
| Tin_man | well at least it knows your birthday now. :) | 15:46 |
| sstory | Tin_man: yeah8-) | 15:47 |
| Tin_man | when i install a ubuntu/linux in the very beginning i just "sudo apt-get install hexchat" and hope it gives me the latest one. | 15:47 |
| Tin_man | after updating that is | 15:48 |
| sstory | Tin_man: Well it doesn't on 14.04... and the new one does what I need...but guess I'll have to wait. | 15:48 |
| nacc | !latest | 15:48 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 15:48 |
| nacc | it gives you the "latest" one Ubuntu <release> has :) | 15:49 |
| sstory | !backports | 15:50 |
| ubottu | If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 15:50 |
| nacc | sstory: yes, good poitn, but backports are 'opt-in', not enabled by default | 15:50 |

| ken_ | hi | 15:53 |
| ken_ | Windows 10 is a personal computer operating system developed and released by Microsoft as part of the Windows NT family of operating systems. It was officially unveiled in September 2014 following a brief demo at Build 2014. The first version of the operating system entered a public beta testing process in October 2014, leading up to its consumer release on July 29, 2015.[4] | 15:55 |
| ken_ | Windows 10 introduces what Microsoft described as "universal apps"; expanding on Metro-style apps, these apps can be designed to run across multiple Microsoft product families with nearly identical code—including PCs, tablets, smartphones, embedded systems, Xbox One, Surface Hub and Windows Holographic. The Windows user interface was revised to handle transitions between a mouse-oriented interface and a touchscreen-optimized interface bas | 15:55 |
| ken_ | ed on available input devices—particularly on 2-in-1 PCs; both interfaces include an updated Start menu which incorporates elements of Windows 7's traditional Start menu with the tiles of Windows 8. The first release of Windows 10 also introduces a virtual desktop system, a window and desktop management feature called Task View, the Microsoft Edge web browser, support for fingerprint and face recognition login, new security features for enter | 15:55 |
| ken_ | prise environments, and DirectX 12 and WDDM 2.0 to improve the operating system's graphics capabilities for games. | 15:55 |
| ken_ | Microsoft described Windows 10 as an "operating system as a service" that would receive ongoing updates to its features and functionality, augmented with the ability for enterprise environments to receive non-critical updates at a slower pace, or use long-term support milestones that will only receive critical updates, such as security patches, over their five-year lifespan of mainstream support. Terry Myerson, executive vice president of Microsoft's Windows | 15:55 |
| sixsmith | please don't spam | 15:55 |
| ken_ | and Devices Group, argued that the goal of this model was to reduce fragmentation across the Windows platform, as Microsoft aimed to have Windows 10 installed on at least one billion devices in the two to three years following its release.[5] | 15:56 |
| ken_ | Windows 10 received mostly positive reviews upon its original release in July 2015; critics praised Microsoft's decision to downplay user-interface mechanics introduced by Windows 8 (including the full screen apps and Start screen) in non-touch environments to provide a desktop-oriented interface in line with previous versions of Windows, although Windows 10's touch-oriented user interface mode was panned for containing regressions upon the touch-oriented | 15:56 |
| ken_ | interface of Windows 8. Critics also praised the improvements to Windows 10's bundled software over 8.1, Xbox Live integration, as well as the functionality and capabilities of Cortana personal assistant and the replacement of Internet Explorer with Microsoft Edge. | 15:56 |
| ken_ | Critics characterized the initial release of Windows 10 in July 2015 as being rushed, citing the incomplete state of some of the operating system's bundled software (such as the Edge web browser), as well as the stability of the operating system itself on launch.[6][7][8] Windows 10 was also criticized for limiting how users can control its operation, including limited controls over the installation of updates on the main consumer-oriented edition in | 15:56 |
| ken_ | comparison to previous versions. Privacy concerns were also voiced by critics and advocates, as the operating system's default settings and certain features require the transmission of user data to Microsoft or its partners. Microsoft has also received criticism for how it has distributed Windows 10 to users of existing versions of Windows, which has included the automatic downloads of installation files to computers, the recurring display of pop-ups | 15:56 |
| ken_ | advertising the upgrade, and the installation process being scheduled or initiated automatically without expressed user consent.[9][10][11][12]Windows 10 is a personal computer operating system developed and released by Microsoft as part of the Windows NT family of operating systems.

| nacc | diverdude: do you already have a remote graphical interface? | 16:03 |
| diverdude | nacc, just ssh | 16:03 |
| diverdude | nacc, which ofc is not graphical | 16:03 |
| diverdude | nacc, but thats what i have | 16:03 |
| Tin_man | it would be only as fast as your connection. my default viewer works fine with ssh. | 16:03 |
| nacc | diverdude: well, ssh -X, potentially | 16:05 |
| diverdude | nacc, yeah...only that requires servers to have X installed and its slow and tedious :/ | 16:05 |
| nacc | :) | 16:05 |
| diverdude | nacc, i was hoping for some easy to use image transfer program | 16:05 |
| nelson_ | hi all, i am getting an Out of Range ! message generated by my display when booting Ubuntu 16.04.. I can get to a terminal if i boot in recovery mode and I am using the open source drivers | 16:06 |
| junaid | Does anyone guide me to upload a dkms package to PPA? | 16:06 |
| nelson_ | has anyone ever run into the issue i described? | 16:06 |
| junaid | can* | 16:06 |
| nacc | junaid: what happens when you try? | 16:06 |
| junaid | nacc, it gets uploaded but when it gets downloaded and installed, it errors out "This package appears to be a binaries-only package" | 16:09 |

| Tin_man | nelson_, might be your monitor setting is out of range, but not sure how you would fix it, someone here most likely would if given time to answer. | 16:12 |
| akik | is this a known bug that in unity with 2 displays, the launcher stops the mouse pointer from going into the other display? | 16:13 |
| akik | i moved the launcher to the bottom and the problem was gone | 16:14 |
| tgm4883 | akik: Are you going at it full speed? | 16:14 |
| akik | tgm4883: full speed, always :) | 16:15 |
| tgm4883 | akik: I don't have that problem at all. Hidden launcher, going at it full speed it goes to the other screen just fine | 16:15 |
| akik | tgm4883: i have the launcher on both displays | 16:16 |
| tgm4883 | akik: as do i | 16:16 |
| akik | tgm4883: but i don't hide it | 16:16 |
| nelson_ | Tin_man, thanks, this happened after in uninstalled the nvidia driver from the additional drivers tool | 16:16 |

| kilbith | someone can explain me why the bloated package 'fonts-noto-cjk' is installed by default on ubuntu ? | 16:27 |
| kilbith | 75 MB, just for fonts... *cough* | 16:28 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Hello? | 16:29 |
| TGVoid | Can someone help me with testdisk? | 16:30 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: someone thought that it was necessary enough to include it apparently | 16:30 |
| kilbith | tgm4883, yes... but why ? | 16:31 |
| TGVoid | This is what's happening: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18031657/ | 16:31 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: that sounds like a question for the ubuntu developers mailing list, or you might be able to look through the changelog | 16:31 |
| nelson_ | if i manually install nvidia-361 via the terminal in recovery mode does anyone know if that is the equivalent of selecting the "Using NVIDIA binary driver - version 361.43 from nvidia-361 (proprietary tested) as seen in the additional drivers tool? | 16:31 |
| kilbith | tgm4883, apparently these are the japanese/chinese fonts, but why would i care if i'm european ? | 16:32 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: well there is one ISO for the whole world so.... | 16:32 |
| kilbith | tgm4883, then this package should only be installed for the chinese/japanese | 16:33 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: TBH, I'm not completely worried about 75MB | 16:33 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: but if you want to really find out, you can see who added it in the change log and ask them | 16:33 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: it's a recommends to the ubuntu-desktop package, so my assumption would be that it just installs all recommends | 16:34 |
| tgm4883 | (IIRC, recommends are on by default) | 16:34 |
| TGVoid | I'm having a problem when I did a quicksearch in Testdisk. This is what's happening: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18031657/ | 16:34 |
| kilbith | tgm4883, you don't download 75 MB only one, there are also the updates... | 16:34 |
| kilbith | *one time | 16:34 |
| Edico | hi | 16:34 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: I would bet that package hardly ever gets updated during a release | 16:35 |
| kilbith | i remember having updated this package a bunch of times | 16:35 |
| Edico | is there a good application for .flv and .swf file in firefox? | 16:36 |
| Edico | to open .flv and .swf files | 16:36 |
| kilbith | there's an ubuntu developement channel on freenode ? | 16:36 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: well I only see it getting updated twice in trusty | 16:37 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: #ubuntu-devel | 16:37 |
| kilbith | ah, thanks | 16:37 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: but I've already told you to find out who to ask | 16:38 |
| kilbith | i don't really who to ask exactly | 16:38 |
| kilbith | +know | 16:38 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: try #ubuntu-devel then | 16:39 |
| kilbith | will do | 16:39 |
| OerHeks | kilbith, if you read some chinese japanese korean webpage/ text in your browser, you would want this package. else you come here and complain about weird characters | 16:40 |
| OerHeks | whats the fuzz about, i wonder | 16:41 |
| TGVoid | I'm having a problem when I did a quicksearch in Testdisk. This is what's happening: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18031657/ | 16:42 |
| kilbith | OerHeks, i don't see why i would want this package when i abslutely don't read chinese | 16:42 |
| kilbith | as most of West people | 16:43 |
| nacc | generalize much? :) | 16:43 |
| tgm4883 | nacc: I don't think that's a far off generalization | 16:44 |
| nacc | tgm4883: no, but never seeing a single chinese character in any format? | 16:44 |
| tgm4883 | nacc: TBF, you have to get the character somehow (browser, email, etc) and care what it is | 16:45 |
| OerHeks | You will see when you don't have access to chinese/japanese/korean fonts... | 16:46 |
| OerHeks | anyway, you are free to remove it, that is the fun-part. | 16:46 |
| nacc | tgm4883: true true | 16:47 |
| nacc | tgm4883: it seems better to err on the side of caution for displaying the internet :) | 16:47 |
| === apg1 is now known as apg | ||
| kilbith | even Fedora don't ship that package by default iirc | 16:48 |
| kilbith | nor Debian | 16:48 |
| nacc | why is that relevant? | 16:49 |
| b100s | hi2all | 16:49 |
| b100s | is there way to undo last update? | 16:49 |
| b100s | looks likes my wifi broken by it. | 16:49 |
| tgm4883 | nacc: probably true, I can't really think of a better way to do it | 16:50 |
| kilbith | nacc, these are popular distros, there might have stronger reasons to not include it than on the ubuntu side | 16:50 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: just remove the package if you don't want it | 16:50 |
| nacc | tgm4883: yeah, it seems like a relatively hard problem to solve well, and it's easier to just leave it as-is :) | 16:50 |
| OerHeks | kilbith, lolz, fedora uses other package names, you are right https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/I18N/Fonts | 16:50 |
| kilbith | i just want to convince you to do not ship it anymore out-of-the-box | 16:50 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: how big is the harddisk? | 16:51 |
| OerHeks | so you are wrong, solved. | 16:51 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: you're making the assumption that the other distros are doing it right and ubuntu is doing it wrong ;) | 16:51 |
| nacc | kilbith: you have failed to convince here or in #ubuntu-devel, afaict | 16:51 |
| cjch | anybody here ? | 16:51 |
| tgm4883 | cjch: really? | 16:51 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: The image is 977.5 GB | 16:51 |
| OerHeks | b100s, what wifi device? | 16:51 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: the actual hard disk was 1gb? | 16:51 |
| EriC^^ | *1tb | 16:51 |
| kilbith | tgm4883, i said : "it _might_ have stronger reasons to do not include it" | 16:52 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Yes | 16:52 |
| b100s | OerHeks, how can i get it? | 16:52 |
| HankTheAi | Hello, | 16:52 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: did you try the deep search? | 16:52 |
| tgm4883 | kilbith: but you were wrong, they do include it | 16:52 |
| HankTheAi | I am wanting to use the Intel ® X99 Express Chipset with RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 built into my new mobo. | 16:52 |
| kilbith | ah sorry, mistunderstood the word "assumption" | 16:52 |
| b100s | OerHeks, DONE :) it was real hard locked ))))))) | 16:53 |
| HankTheAi | however, it is designed to work with Windows OS and the Intel Rapid Storage Technology 13 support. | 16:53 |
| HankTheAi | obviously Intel Rapid Storage is not supported native in Linux. | 16:53 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: You told me to use the EFI search andthe "partition can't be recovered" error appeared. The only option is "continue". | 16:53 |
| fennesz | Hello! Can someone help me with rtorrent ? from rutorrent I get : No connection to rTorrent. Check if it is really running | 16:53 |
| OerHeks | b100s, oh good, have fun! | 16:53 |
| HankTheAi | what is the best way to leverage the optimal performance of the X99 onboard RAID. | 16:53 |
| HankTheAi | ? | 16:53 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: press continue | 16:53 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: There's P MS Data and P Mac HFS | 16:54 |
| HankTheAi | or is there possibly any support for Intel Rapid Storage on Ubuntu? | 16:54 |
| HankTheAi | I would like to see if one of my drives fails or has any issues from the OS level, and not having to check it from the BIOS/boot level. | 16:55 |
| HankTheAi | even better would be to get some sort of warning in Ubuntu, similar to how Intel Rapid Storage works in Windows. | 16:55 |
| HankTheAi | in the past I have been able to see a failing drive in a RAID 10 and replace it quickly before any data loss occured. | 16:56 |
| kilbith | is it possible to convince you to drop Mir and return back to Wayland ? :] | 16:56 |
| HankTheAi | any help here is much appreciated, to just point me in the best direction. | 16:56 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: how large is the MS DATA | 16:56 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: cursory googling so far, but it seems like Intel has done some Linux support for RST | 16:57 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: 1371984 | 16:57 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: dunno how good or bad it is | 16:57 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: and unclear if you need a drvier from them or not | 16:57 |
| HankTheAi | nacc: thanks buddy! | 16:57 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: at the bottom, how much GB ? | 16:57 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: seems like you want mdadm | 16:57 |
| tgm4883 | !info mdadm | 16:57 |
| ubottu | mdadm (source: mdadm): tool to administer Linux MD arrays (software RAID). In component main, is optional. Version 3.3-2ubuntu7.1 (xenial), package size 410 kB, installed size 1288 kB | 16:57 |
| HankTheAi | I am digging through the super long mobo manual. | 16:57 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: per http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/boards-and-kits/000006040.html | 16:57 |
| HankTheAi | it does not mention anything about Linux of course. ;-) | 16:57 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: It only shows HFS. It's 753 GB | 16:58 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: http://askubuntu.com/questions/87979/configure-mdadm-for-existing-intel-rapid-storage-array | 16:58 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: is the ms data highlighted right now? | 16:58 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Nope. MS Data is 702 MB | 16:58 |
| DArqueBishop | HankTheAi: if the drives support SMART, you can use smartmontools to do SMART hardware checks of the drives. | 16:59 |
| HankTheAi | tgm4883: have you used mdadm before? | 16:59 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: I have not | 16:59 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: ok, use the right arrow to get a "P" next to it then press continue | 16:59 |
| HankTheAi | I was hoping to find others using it in this channel. | 16:59 |
| * DArqueBishop uses mdadm but not with RST on his VM host server. | 16:59 | |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: actually, press "p" over it and see the files in it | 16:59 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: mostly because I don't need RAID for my home boxes, and my work boxes use actual RAID cards | 16:59 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: MS data? | 16:59 |
| Pici | HankTheAi: #ubuntu-server might be a better place to inquire | 16:59 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: yeah | 17:00 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: "Support for this filesystem hasn't been implemented." | 17:00 |
| HankTheAi | do most people setup a separate NAS or storage server box? | 17:00 |
| EriC^^ | over ms data? try over hfs | 17:00 |
| HankTheAi | I can't really afford to upgrade more boxes, and this new X99 motherboard has an onboard RAID controller so I thought I would give that a go first. | 17:01 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: paste.ubuntu.com/18037126/ | 17:01 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try deeper search | 17:02 |
| HankTheAi | tgm4883: thanks, I will do some more Googling. I need to first understand how good the support is for Intel Rapid Storage (LINUX) | 17:02 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: I don't. I don't need high availability for my home stuff | 17:02 |
| HankTheAi | my main concern is if it is updated etc... | 17:02 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: aiui, that RAID controller is fake RAID | 17:02 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Alright. See you in a while | 17:03 |
| tgm4883 | I'm not sure many people need high availability at home, but I'm sure they exist. Home businesses maybe | 17:03 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: let it run for like 1min then press enter | 17:03 |
| HankTheAi | I find that many of these kind of Windows bloat wares that come on all Windows PC's are usually not too well supported for Linux. Most of them do not even have a Linux version, and that makes sense because there are usually much better alternatives built into the Linux core. | 17:03 |
| HankTheAi | I am surprised that Intel has an official Intel Rapid Storage project. | 17:04 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: out of curiosity, why are you setting up raid anyway? | 17:04 |
| HankTheAi | my bigger question is what kind of drive formatting I should use. | 17:04 |
| TGVoid | Hey CodeMouse92! Thanks for your help yesterday! | 17:04 |
| HankTheAi | I will bring that topic over to Ubuntu server channel. | 17:04 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Only Mac HFS | 17:04 |
| CodeMouse92 | TGVoid: Hi there. No problem. How'd it work out? | 17:04 |
| TGVoid | CodeMouse92: We're still working on it | 17:04 |
| HankTheAi | RAID? | 17:04 |
| HankTheAi | why would I not setup RAID is the better question. ;-) | 17:05 |
| HankTheAi | is there another way to protect data and automatically spread it across multiple drives? | 17:05 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: backups? | 17:05 |
| HankTheAi | data protection is the main reason for RAID | 17:05 |
| HankTheAi | performance is the second reason. | 17:05 |
| HankTheAi | but I am not concerned with performance in this case. | 17:05 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: whoa, no. Data protection is not the main reason for RAID | 17:05 |
| TGVoid | HankTheAi: There's RAID 1 with copies data from 1 drive to another | 17:05 |
| HankTheAi | there are much better options for storage performance these days. | 17:05 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: The main reason for RAID is high availability | 17:06 |
| HankTheAi | yeah so I don't really need the (0) for speed. | 17:06 |
| HankTheAi | the (1) is for dedup | 17:06 |
| HankTheAi | I used 10 in the past to get both combined. | 17:06 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: um. RAID 1 isn't dedup. It's the opposite | 17:07 |
| tgm4883 | it's. completedup | 17:07 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: was the hdd ever used on a mac? | 17:07 |
| HankTheAi | might just use another level of RAID but with the new X99 mobo I got, there are so many new factors to consider. | 17:07 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Never | 17:07 |
| HankTheAi | yes, so I have a monster system, and I don't want to run another box just for storage. | 17:07 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: how about considering RAID isn't a replacement for proper backups | 17:08 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: ok, try to run the deeper search for longer and see if you get any partitions that look like they could be the one | 17:08 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Only Windows 8.1 and 10. The only other OS I used was Ubuntu on a USB | 17:08 |
| HankTheAi | I could setup Ubuntu Server and a dedicated server for storage on another box, but that seems overkill. | 17:08 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: do you remember the partition sizes? | 17:08 |
| HankTheAi | I do a lot of 3D design type work. | 17:08 |
| EriC^^ | C:\ | 17:08 |
| HankTheAi | so I want to keep my files as close to the M.2 SSD as possible. | 17:08 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: No. I copied only 1 partition | 17:08 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: nobody said you needed a second box... | 17:08 |
| HankTheAi | network will be the bottleneck | 17:08 |
| tatertots | Hank have you configured RAID on your new computer yet? | 17:09 |
| HankTheAi | I mean if I make a NAS | 17:09 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Imaged* | 17:09 |
| tatertots | which one will you configure | 17:09 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: you did if=/dev/sdb1 instead of /dev/sdb? | 17:09 |
| HankTheAi | so with on board RAID, I can use my RAID to keep my 3D assets right there in the same workstation tower. | 17:09 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: you can do that without RAID as well | 17:09 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Yeah | 17:09 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: but i don't think the x99 chipset is "on board RAID" in the way you are suggesting; it's fake-RAID (bios-assisted) | 17:10 |
| HankTheAi | tgm4883: actually my intention is to use the RAID for my backups. | 17:10 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Except I used /dev/sda4 | 17:10 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: testdisk isn't going to help i guess then | 17:10 |
| HankTheAi | and to keep my files there too. | 17:10 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: testdisk looks for lost partitions in a disk | 17:10 |
| HankTheAi | I could not afford the M.2 1TB SSD lol | 17:11 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: Wait. You're going to keep your main files, and your backups on the same RAID setup? | 17:11 |
| HankTheAi | and even still I have about 1500GB of files | 17:11 |
| HankTheAi | 3D assets, architectural and engineering libraries. | 17:11 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | hi | 17:11 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: nevermind, i think it might be able to fix stuff too | 17:11 |
| HankTheAi | the files can get heavy | 17:11 |
| HankTheAi | very heavy | 17:11 |
| HankTheAi | I feel so lost with so much "new tech" in this X99 system I upgraded to. | 17:12 |
| HankTheAi | can't complain | 17:12 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: are you talking just to talk? | 17:12 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | HankTheAi, new tech such as? | 17:12 |
| HankTheAi | but I was using a Xeon X5550 (dual cpu) workstation since 2009. Amazing that I actually did not need to upgrade until recently. | 17:12 |
| tatertots | tgm4883 i think hank is talking just to talk | 17:12 |
| tatertots | lol | 17:12 |
| tatertots | Hank says he's used raid in the past but yet he feels lost with the technology lol | 17:13 |
| tatertots | hmm | 17:13 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Should I run a quicksearch using the Intel filesystem? | 17:13 |
| HankTheAi | Intel ® X99 Express Chipset with RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, and Intel | 17:13 |
| HankTheAi | Rapid Storage Technology 13 support: | 17:13 |
| maddawg2 | damn i really am hating the later versions of ubuntu | 17:14 |
| HankTheAi | ummm, already mentioned M.2 SSD | 17:14 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Or should I run it using "none?" | 17:14 |
| bmurphy1976 | I'm really struggling to build an ubuntu 16.04 image that boots on amazon ec2 c3.large instance type (c3.xlarge is perfectly fine!!). Where can I go to get help with this? | 17:14 |
| maddawg2 | always finding damn bugs in the desktop environment | 17:14 |
| HankTheAi | that is the latest storage tech AFAIK | 17:14 |
| HankTheAi | Ie. "new tech" | 17:14 |
| maddawg2 | for example... clicking on view-->as list does not view folder as list all the time | 17:14 |
| HankTheAi | and I was not talking just to talk... | 17:14 |
| maddawg2 | keeps just showing them as icons | 17:14 |
| HankTheAi | I guess I need to do more research and testing on my own. | 17:15 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: then you should probably at least respond to the people talking to you | 17:15 |
| tatertots | I agree hank | 17:15 |
| tatertots | i agree | 17:15 |
| HankTheAi | the system I run as my production environment is not the norm. | 17:15 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: considering many of the things you said are generally are bad ideas | 17:15 |
| HankTheAi | I am using GPU PCI-e passthrough for Windows OS | 17:15 |
| HankTheAi | with Ubuntu as the Host OS. | 17:15 |
| fennesz | Hello ! Can someone tell why my external drive (ext4) is constantly spinning ? The led also blinks constantly | 17:16 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: There is nothing you said that is super special | 17:16 |
| Tin_man | OMG, ok HankTheAi we got it.. | 17:16 |
| HankTheAi | so actually, I am trying to figure out a way to use the M.2 SSD on the X99 platform to cache all data to the faster storage and then automatically offload it the slower RAID (spinning disks) | 17:16 |
| maddawg2 | my laptop and desktpp both have m.2 ssd | 17:16 |
| Tin_man | i'm running a brand new (to me) 6 old dell 2 core.. | 17:17 |
| ikonia | HankTheAi: bcache ? | 17:17 |
| HankTheAi | but I did not want anyone's mind to explode by asking how to do that. | 17:17 |
| HankTheAi | lol | 17:17 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: on board raid, not special. 1500GB of files, not special. M.2 SSD, not special. Caching on SSD and offload to rust, not special | 17:17 |
| HankTheAi | tgm4883: what did I say that is a bad idea to implement? | 17:18 |
| HankTheAi | what exactly? | 17:18 |
| === GitGud is now known as AllahDuhaiHai | ||
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: we'd be happy to help, but you just need to state what you want to do and listen us when we tell you stuff | 17:18 |
| HankTheAi | I did not say anything I am doing is special... | 17:18 |
| HankTheAi | anyways... | 17:18 |
| HankTheAi | what did I say that is a "bad idea?" | 17:18 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: specifically. You said you were going to keep your backups and main files on the same RAID | 17:18 |
| HankTheAi | ah I see... | 17:19 |
| HankTheAi | I apologize, for not stating that clearly. | 17:19 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: before that, you said that you were using RAID for data protection | 17:19 |
| HankTheAi | I generally work off the SSD. | 17:19 |
| HankTheAi | what do you suggest then? | 17:20 |
| HankTheAi | I do not see another option. | 17:20 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: not a bad idea, but you also said that RAID 1 was for dedup | 17:20 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: proper backups are the other option for data protection | 17:20 |
| HankTheAi | with 256GB of SSD, I can't put all of my working files there and then backup only to the RAID. | 17:20 |
| HankTheAi | I am also using other drives to backup...I am not an idiot as you and others are implying. | 17:21 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: as ikonia just said, bcache does what you want. No one's mind has been exploded, because it's already something exists. | 17:21 |
| HankTheAi | I use cloud storage | 17:21 |
| HankTheAi | and I also have several external drives as well. | 17:21 |
| tatertots | OMG "cloud" | 17:21 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: I'm not implying anything, I'm referencing exactly what you said | 17:21 |
| SchrodingersScat | chill out, we're trying to help | 17:21 |
| tatertots | like in the sky | 17:21 |
| tatertots | :-) | 17:21 |
| tatertots | :-0 | 17:21 |
| HankTheAi | I would never fully trust a software RAID as my only backup source. | 17:21 |
| === AllahDuhaiHai is now known as GitGUd | ||
| === GitGUd is now known as GitGud | ||
| HankTheAi | that would be idiotic, and I can see why you are thinking I am an idiot. | 17:22 |
| tatertots | fake raid is blah | 17:22 |
| tatertots | if your data was important as you think it is you'd use a real raid controler | 17:22 |
| === GitGud is now known as somethingelse | ||
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: you should use bcache with your RAID for speed, then have proper backups. Although the raid there would be just personal preference | 17:22 |

| snkcld | im having issues connecting to my bluetooth headset. i was able to pair successfully, and in the menu bar it says "Connection on" for the headset toggle, but the headset does not show up in my volume settings for outputs | 17:23 |
| HadesWatch3r34 | hey | 17:23 |
| ikonia | I'd question how much speed you really need | 17:23 |
| HankTheAi | maybe I should spend a lot more money on a PCI-e raid card, but that is too expensive to my use-case for other reasons...PCI slots. | 17:23 |
| Archives | Hi friends, I need a small help in Ubuntu | 17:23 |
| tgm4883 | tatertots: there isn't anything especially wrong with the on board raid, although you are possibly right | 17:23 |
| HankTheAi | I use all my PCI-e slots for double-wide GPU's. | 17:23 |
| HankTheAi | I don't really need super fast storage in this use-case. | 17:24 |
| HankTheAi | I just need decent storage in the same box. | 17:24 |
| nacc | snkcld: i've had that happen before with pulse, if you run `pulseaudio -k` does it show up after pulse restarts? | 17:24 |
| tgm4883 | ikonia: he mentioned 3d files, which can be large. although loading them is possibly still going to take a while depending on if it's in cache or not | 17:24 |
| Archives | Can anyone tell me how to configure screen-locks when the laptop lid is closed in Ubuntu. | 17:24 |
| Archives | I have tried a dozen of solutions but nothing seems to work, and I am totally a newbie in Ubuntu. | 17:24 |
| Archives | I have a HP laptop. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04. | 17:24 |
| snkcld | nacc: ah, ok, let me try | 17:24 |
| HankTheAi | why is RAID via the on-board controller not good enough? | 17:24 |
| ztane | anyone here having problems with ktorrent somehow stalling in unity? | 17:25 |
| ztane | or knowing the solution to it | 17:25 |
| Archives | Besides, I have disc-crypt lock/password (I guess this is what some Ubuntu users call it but I'm sure)- which is when I turn-on the laptop, I am asked for a password after the Boot phase. | 17:25 |
| HankTheAi | that is what I have used for the last several years and never had any issues that I would not also have with dedicated RAID cards, or other alternatives. | 17:25 |
| HankTheAi | the only issues I have had is with failing drives. | 17:25 |
| HankTheAi | in the RAID 10. | 17:25 |
| HankTheAi | so how would bcache improve my setup? | 17:26 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: I think mdadm would probably be fine for your use case | 17:26 |
| HankTheAi | spinning disks are spinning disks. | 17:26 |
| === eric is now known as Guest79646 | ||
| nacc | HankTheAi: you asked a very specific question earlier; how to have your SSD cache for your spinning disks | 17:26 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: bcache is what does that. | 17:26 |
| tatertots | mdadm is really fun to use also | 17:26 |
| HankTheAi | still the best solution for having 2TB of duplicated storage, or am I wrong? | 17:26 |
| sam_tunder | what is the bash command for trimming an ssd? | 17:26 |
| HankTheAi | software raid, raid card, or other setup is still going to run on spinning disks regardless. | 17:27 |
| snkcld | nacc: doesnt seem to help. i think the headset is having problems connecting over bluetooth. theres a lot of interference here from other devices and wifi | 17:27 |
| HankTheAi | I am really confused as to what the confusion is. | 17:27 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: bcache in front of your RAID | 17:27 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Hello? | 17:27 |
| HankTheAi | I simply was asking about the best solution for RAID on Ubuntu. | 17:27 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: that is what we are suggested (or I am anyway) | 17:27 |
| tatertots | Hank it sounds like you're still in the "conceptual" or "dreaming" phase of your setup...have you actually setup a raid array yet? | 17:28 |
| HankTheAi | nacc, no I did not ask that question. | 17:28 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: there are different guarantees (and resiliency in terms of cache and power failure) with on-board RAID and dedicated cards | 17:28 |
| HankTheAi | I said that I have set that up in the past. | 17:28 |
| tgm4883 | tatertots: he's mentioned that he has setup other RAID setups | 17:28 |
| nacc | sigh | 17:28 |
| HankTheAi | I actually said, I am purposely not asking that question about caching. | 17:28 |
| nacc | "10:16 < HankTheAi> so actually, I am trying to figure out a way to use the M.2 | 17:28 |
| nacc | SSD on the X99 platform to cache all data to the faster | 17:28 |
| nacc | storage and then automatically offload it the slower RAID | 17:28 |
| nacc | (spinning disks) | 17:28 |
| nacc | " | 17:28 |
| HankTheAi | I am using M.2 right now | 17:28 |
| HankTheAi | my Ubuntu install is running on it | 17:29 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: you most certainly did 12 minutes ago | 17:29 |
| HankTheAi | and that is how I am talking to you guys lol | 17:29 |
| HankTheAi | nope | 17:29 |
| HankTheAi | wrong | 17:29 |
| HankTheAi | blah | 17:29 |
| HankTheAi | lol | 17:29 |
| HankTheAi | I was asking about Intel Rapid Storage | 17:29 |
| HankTheAi | if that is a good idea on Ubuntu | 17:29 |
| HankTheAi | or if there might be a better solution | 17:29 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: you were just quoted by nacc. We all have it in our backlog | 17:30 |
| HankTheAi | but now that we are talking about SSD caching... | 17:30 |
| HankTheAi | maybe I should reconsider my entire setup. | 17:30 |
| ikonia | HankTheAi: probably better if we cut to the chase and you just asked a clear question | 17:30 |
| * nacc apologizes for the paste, too hasty on my part | 17:30 | |

| ikonia | nacc: it happens, don't break a sweat | 17:30 |
| tgm4883 | nacc: no worries, I was going back to grab it too. You were just faster | 17:30 |
| nacc | heh | 17:31 |
| HankTheAi | I will state for the record, so I do not get attacked further that I think using Intel Rapid Storage seems like a bad idea. | 17:31 |
| HankTheAi | even if they support Linux and have a driver for it. | 17:31 |
| HankTheAi | let me rephrase, I always try to use what is built into the current LTS kernel support. | 17:31 |
| HankTheAi | Ie. KVM vs. Xen | 17:31 |
| tatertots | Hank so you have your OS on the SSD...and you haven't actually configured a raid yet with your other drives? | 17:31 |
| HankTheAi | Mir vs. Wayland. | 17:31 |
| nacc | HankTheAi: "Intel Matrix RAID, Intel Rapid RAID, and Intel Smart Response Technology, are together described as Intel Rapid Storage Technology.", it's just a branding thing, afaict | 17:32 |
| ikonia | HankTheAi: what's your question | 17:32 |
| ikonia | just state it clear | 17:32 |
| HankTheAi | my company is partnered with Canonical and I have invested a lot into the LTS releases. | 17:32 |
| tgm4883 | ikonia: he's been like this the entire time | 17:32 |
| HankTheAi | FYI | 17:32 |
| tatertots | you should get on with setting up that raid and let us know if you have problems | 17:32 |
| ikonia | it's going to end | 17:32 |
| HankTheAi | haha | 17:32 |
| ikonia | HankTheAi: just state your question, your commentory isn't needed | 17:32 |
| tatertots | you are obviously using it without raid right now...why not just continue using it as is...since you feel so lost with the technology | 17:33 |
| HankTheAi | I feel so lost with technology? | 17:33 |
| HankTheAi | lol | 17:33 |
| tatertots | that what you said | 17:33 |
| HankTheAi | go eat some more tots. | 17:33 |
| HankTheAi | I love tatter tots btw. | 17:33 |
| ikonia | HankTheAi: enough now | 17:33 |
| tgm4883 | HankTheAi: please clearly state your question | 17:33 |
| ikonia | HankTheAi: ask a question or please stop talking | 17:33 |
| tatertots | you don't love me hank | 17:34 |
| tatertots | lol | 17:34 |
| ikonia | tatertots: please don't ad to this | 17:34 |
| ikonia | add | 17:34 |
| HankTheAi | nope | 17:34 |
| HankTheAi | subtract | 17:34 |

| nRy2 | what is bcache? | 17:53 |
| nRy2 | is it a bad idea to use it on the same system with a software RAID? | 17:53 |
| nRy2 | #ubuntu, anyone home? | 17:54 |
| nacc | nRy2: did you try doing some research about bcache yourself? | 17:55 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Hello? | 17:55 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: hey | 17:55 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Should I run a quicksearch using the Intel filesystem? | 17:55 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Or should I run it using "none?" | 17:55 |
| DJones | nRy2: Never heard of bcache before but a quick search pointed me towards https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/Bcache | 17:55 |
| nRy2 | DJones: thanks | 17:56 |
| specialedge | Djones: can you tell me how to google a solution for my problem? | 17:56 |
| nRy2 | me too | 17:56 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: i'm not sure about the format it's using with ddrescue, anyways try Intel maybe | 17:56 |
| nRy2 | has anyone here actually tried Intel Rapid Storage on Ubuntu? | 17:57 |
| nRy2 | I tried to ask this question and apparently annoyed several people. | 17:57 |
| nacc | nRy2: there is some discussion here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/308481/howto-run-ubuntu-with-uefi-and-intel-smart-response-technology | 17:58 |
| nRy2 | so I will go back to my original question that was still never answered... | 17:58 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: I already did a quick search and it saved | 17:58 |
| nRy2 | Ubuntu, Intel Rapid Storage; could anyone here please kindly, with sugar on top let me know if they have tried it? | 17:58 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: ok try fdisk -l /image | 17:58 |
| * tgm4883 points out that this is the support channel and just asking if someone has tried something is generally frowned upon | 17:59 | |
| nRy2 | okay, so I guess this Channel is full of Googling experts, but other than that is pretty much useless. | 17:59 |
| nacc | nRy2: you've consistently ignored what i've asked or said -- but Intel RST is a windows-only thing (afaict). | 17:59 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: paste.ubuntu.com/18041402/ | 17:59 |
| nRy2 | Don't try to ask a real question, or you will be punted fast. | 17:59 |
| nRy2 | nacc: ignore | 18:00 |
| nacc | nRy2: but i also pointed you to http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/intelligent-systems/software/rst-linux-paper.html | 18:00 |
| nRy2 | yes thanks nacc | 18:00 |
| nRy2 | I already used Google today too. | 18:00 |
| specialedge | nRy2: when someone doesn't immediately respond to a question, it is likely that those who read the question do not have a positive answer for you | 18:00 |
| nRy2 | but thanks for Googling my question. | 18:00 |
| nRy2 | actually my question, was always the same. | 18:00 |
| django_ | hey | 18:00 |
| django_ | i have 2 attached screens how do i access them? | 18:01 |
| nRy2 | it's fine if no one knows the answer, | 18:01 |
| nRy2 | has anyone used it? | 18:01 |
| nRy2 | just a bunch of know it all using Google. | 18:01 |
| specialedge | nRy2: another alternative could be that someone who can answer the question has not yet read it, for any of a variety of reasons | 18:01 |
| nRy2 | and I get punted for that BS. | 18:01 |
| nRy2 | haha | 18:01 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: how big is the image file? | 18:01 |
| nRy2 | I am now wondering if I should stop investing my company's recourse into Ubuntu. | 18:01 |
| nRy2 | and let canonical know about how lame people are on this channel. | 18:02 |
| tgm4883 | nRy2: this is the wrong channel for making threats | 18:02 |
| nRy2 | haha, threat? | 18:02 |
| nRy2 | what? | 18:02 |
| zooom | hello, how do i re-map the keyboard eg: a --> d | 18:02 |

| Dev_ | Hi, I have a weird problem with sound card in Ubuntu 16.04. I have 2 options for the same sound card and jack in sound menu. First one is for 4.0, 5.1 and 7.1 sound. Second one its called "Headphones" but it's just the same jack and sound is stereo. I want stereo sound, but this "Headphones" option doesn't sound very good, it looks its customized for real headphones and quality is not very good. | 18:02 |
| nRy2 | okay I will leave on my own now. | 18:02 |
| tgm4883 | nRy2: and if you were truly doing that, you'd have contacts inside canonical to assist you | 18:02 |
| nRy2 | because you are a such a child. | 18:02 |
| nRy2 | get a life tgm3863 | 18:02 |
| tgm4883 | nRy2: well I am only 14 | 18:02 |
| tatertots | nRy2 "companies" usually have IT departments with real IT people. Have you not consulted your companies IT | 18:03 |
| nRy2 | makes more sense now. | 18:03 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try sudo mount -o loop /image /mnt | 18:03 |
| DJones | nRy2: If people don't konw the answer, generally they don't reply, obviously, this channel isn't a canonical channel, everybody here is a volunteer | 18:03 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: It's 977.5 GB | 18:03 |
| === valeech_ is now known as valeech | ||
| Dev_ | this doesn't happened on Ubuntu 14.04. I had an "Analog Stereo Output" option and the sound was great | 18:03 |
| tatertots | i suggest you do so...they are there for a reason you know | 18:03 |
| nRy2 | it's more of the attitude of some people here that I am finding very childish. | 18:03 |
| nRy2 | does not matter how old you are, you can always choose to act however you want. | 18:04 |
| nRy2 | I was attacked first by a few of you saying stuff such as... | 18:04 |
| nRy2 | I am confused by technology. | 18:04 |
| specialedge | nry2: perhaps an opportunity to look within has presented itself | 18:04 |
| nRy2 | and rude remarks along those lines. | 18:04 |
| nRy2 | grow up | 18:04 |
| tgm4883 | nRy2: this is the support channel, if you are having a problem with your hardware we'd be happy to help. but questions such as "has anyone used this" is generally frowned upon in this channel | 18:04 |
| nRy2 | hardware? | 18:05 |
| nRy2 | this channel supports hardware too? | 18:05 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18041825/ | 18:05 |
| nRy2 | last time I checked Ubuntu was 100% software based. | 18:05 |
| tgm4883 | nRy2: perhaps you prefer i use "hardware support" | 18:05 |
| nRy2 | maybe some of you so called channel admins are confused about technology. lol | 18:05 |
| dax | oh, that's HankTheAi, fun. | 18:05 |

| neverever | Hi, I need helping launching an application I just installed | 18:10 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: The image is 977.5 GB | 18:11 |
| neverever | Here is my problem, I just installed a program called strodinger. I know that it has been installed, but I am unsure of how to open it. | 18:12 |
| nacc | neverever: how did you install it? | 18:14 |
| neverever | nacc: We unpacked a file, | 18:15 |
| neverever | nacc: it was installed via mastero | 18:16 |
| tatertots | nevernever....was there a "read me" or any other documentation included with the file? | 18:17 |
| varaindemian | in ubuntu some packages get updates by defualt and others only if you add the ppa's? | 18:17 |
| mchelen2 | varaindemian: they are all updated by default, if there are updates in the official repositories | 18:18 |
| neverever | nacc: I can write a more detailed description if you would like. We unpacked a file called Schrodinger_suites_2016.tar | 18:18 |
| varaindemian | or after staying some time in a ppa a package gets update? | 18:18 |
| neverever | nacc: we aren't really sure how to launch it after unpacking it | 18:18 |
| akik | neverever: you can see where it put files by "tar -tvf Schrodinger_suites_2016.tar". it's not installing per se | 18:18 |
| mchelen2 | varaindemian: anyone can create a ppa, it's not necessarily tied to official repositories in any way | 18:18 |
| mchelen2 | varaindemian: generally speaking, as software gets updated, it will eventually reach the official ubuntu repositories, but that takes time & depends on release cycles | 18:19 |
| ComMan | people, anyone knows how to use a cluster computer? | 18:19 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Hello? | 18:20 |
| tatertots | oh boy | 18:20 |
| mchelen2 | ComMan: thats a very broad subject. what type of cluster? | 18:20 |
| DJones | varaindemian: The official ubuntu repo's get security updates but not new versions, unofficial ppa's may have newer releases, but they're generally not supported outside of the ppa creator | 18:20 |
| ComMan | mchelen2: i have just built and setup a raspberry pi (3 node) cluster | 18:20 |
| varaindemian | mchelen2: so DE (kde plasma 5.7) will arrive to ubuntu after 6 months if does't have the ppa added? | 18:21 |
| mchelen2 | ComMan: ok what software is it running? | 18:21 |
| ComMan | raspian | 18:21 |
| neverever | akik: okay I tried tar -tvf but i get the error, option requires an argument error | 18:21 |
| tatertots | isn't there a #rasberrypi channel | 18:21 |
| tatertots | someone posted it earlier i think | 18:22 |
| akik | neverever: "tar -tvf Schrodinger_suites_2016.tar" | 18:22 |
| mchelen2 | varaindemian: i can't guarantee what version will be in a particular release. try searching in http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 18:22 |
| Backwards | Speaking of updates I have node -v v5.11.1 There is the old nodejs and the new node.js Would the old node version interfere with or is node.js <-----< .js in this case? I type node.js -V or --version and Ubuntu says it is not installed but node is. | 18:22 |
| === Sebastien is now known as SEBASTIEN | ||
| akik | neverever: what you have done is just unpacking an archive file into your file system | 18:22 |
| mchelen2 | ComMan: usually when people talk about cluster computing, they mean a particular parrelel processing framework. what are you trying to accomplish? | 18:22 |
| ComMan | mchelen2: i am trying to learn about cluster computing, which is why i built one to learn on it | 18:23 |
| mchelen2 | Backwards: usually the executable is just "node" or "nodejs" i guess | 18:23 |
| mchelen2 | ComMan: ok when you say "cluster computing" do you mean parrelel processing? | 18:23 |
| mchelen2 | ComMan: like running a calculation that is split between all nodes | 18:24 |
| Backwards | I was reading that nodejs is the older version of node.js | 18:24 |
| ComMan | mchelen2: yes | 18:24 |
| mchelen2 | Backwards: the executable name doesn't tell you a lot, the -v is what to look at | 18:24 |
| Backwards | I see. I am working on installing qwebirc or kiwiirc and it requires the latest node version. I believe I have the latest version. I was just confounded by Ubuntu tells me to apt-get node.js | 18:26 |
| mchelen2 | ComMan: ok so there are a bunch of different approaches to check out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cluster#Some_implementations | 18:26 |
| neverever | akik: Okay, so I followed some online instructions for installing this package. | 18:26 |
| nacc | Backwards: in ubuntu, the two commands are node and nodejs. node is the legacy command (provided by nodejs-legacy). | 18:26 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: one sec | 18:26 |
| EriC^^ | reading the log | 18:26 |
| Backwards | Thanks Nacc. | 18:26 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: after the mount command nothing extra is being added at the bottom? | 18:27 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try sudo mount -o loop -t ntfs-3g /image /mnt | 18:27 |
| akik | neverever: did you find the application? | 18:27 |
| Backwards | Nacc, I didn't know with Ubuntu that legacy commands are interchangeable with the new. | 18:28 |
| nacc | Backwards: afaict, `node` ends up just being a wrapper for nodejs. But not 100% | 18:28 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: it may be ntfs not ntfs-3g | 18:28 |
| ComMan | mchelen2: ok i am starting to get it, i am using MPI | 18:29 |
| === pavlushka is now known as too_much_buggy_b | ||
| mchelen2 | yeah i think so, the old workaround was to symlink node to point to nodejs | 18:29 |
| === too_much_buggy_b is now known as pavlushka | ||
| mchelen2 | ComMan: ok cool, yeah i think thats a popular one | 18:29 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: It shows me usage | 18:30 |
| ComMan | excellent, learned something today :-) | 18:30 |
| Backwards | Mchelen2 thanks for that point as well. | 18:30 |

| neverever | akik: So we have installed the application, opened it, and then we closed it and we have no idea how to open it again | 18:33 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: can you run chkdsk on it from windows? | 18:34 |
| Bashing-om | SirSlippers: What release are you installing .. and have you tried " nomodeset " as a boot option ? | 18:34 |
| akik | neverever: 1) tar -tvf Schrodinger_suites_2016.tar 2) go into the same directory where you unpacked the tar 3) the output from 1) will be in that directory | 18:34 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: How? I only have the image | 18:34 |
| nacc | Hulkie: where are you seeing a failure? | 18:34 |
| neverever | akik: This is obviously a really stupid question. We aren't that familiar with Ubuntu. We sat down installed the thing, then opened it, then closed it, and now we can't find it | 18:35 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: The drive is gone | 18:35 |
| Hulkie | nacc, in eggdrop's dcc, when i read errorInfo variable. | 18:35 |

| EriC^^ | TGVoid: http://superuser.com/questions/615683/perform-a-chkdsk-on-an-ntfs-image | 18:35 |
| Hulkie | nacc, 12 | 18:35 |
| SirSlippers | ok ... I am a newbie ... I don't understand your question ... V14.4 Xubuntu ... | 18:36 |
| neverever | akik: ok thank you so much. I will try that right now. | 18:36 |
| nacc | Hulkie: that particular debian bug only refers to building against versions of openssl that are not yet packaged in Ubuntu (afaict) | 18:36 |
| Hulkie | nacc: Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS \n \l | 18:36 |
| akik | neverever: of course if you unpacked it in some other way it could be elsewhere. can you paste the url for the document you followed? | 18:36 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: So I need to mount it to Windows? | 18:36 |
| nacc | Hulkie: not even in Debian unstable yet, so can't be your bug, afaict | 18:36 |
| Hulkie | nacc, is therte any way i can fix? | 18:36 |
| Hulkie | uhm | 18:37 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: yeah you need windows to fix ntfs | 18:37 |
| SirSlippers | "NOMODETEST" ?? where does that go? How do I get to where I type that in? What are the keystrokes to get there? | 18:37 |
| nacc | Hulkie: the corresponding Debian changelog specifically mentions openssl 1.1 | 18:37 |
| Bashing-om | What we want is the see if it is a graphic's driver issue .. When booting "nomodeset" Kernel Mode Setting is diabled such that a lower level driver will be loaded . | 18:37 |
| varaindemian | from my understanding, the DE is part of the core system and its stability is crucial therefore it won't get updates as often as other packages that are not part of the "core", right? | 18:37 |
| Bashing-om | !nomodeset | SirSlippers | 18:38 |
| ubottu | SirSlippers: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 18:38 |
| nacc | Hulkie: oh i see, there were two sets of changes that were made | 18:38 |
| neverever | akik: I am trying to figure out what someone else did. They will be back in around 30 min. Can they talk to you then? | 18:38 |
| akik | neverever: there will be people on #ubuntu to help you | 18:38 |
| SirSlippers | thankx ubottu .. but that's for version 10.0 ... | 18:39 |
| neverever | akik: actually they are here now | 18:39 |
| nacc | Hulkie: looks like it was fixed in 2.1.4-dfgs2-3 (and 12.04 has 2.1.4-dfgs-2build2) | 18:39 |
| nacc | Hulkie: i'd file an ubuntu bug if it's something you are actively seeing | 18:39 |
| nacc | !bug | Hulkie | 18:39 |
| ubottu | Hulkie: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 18:39 |
| varaindemian | Even python was out of date last time I checked | 18:40 |
| nacc | Hulkie: nm, already filed, i think, LP: #902645 | 18:40 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 902645 in tcltrf (Ubuntu) "TCL can't load Trf" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/902645 | 18:40 |
| Bashing-om | SirSlippers: ^^ also applies in 14.04. We want to know that you are able to boot to a GUIi . degraded graphics with nomodeset is acceptable . we can then look and see what the situation is . | 18:40 |
| nacc | !latest | varaindemian | 18:40 |
| ubottu | varaindemian: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 18:40 |
| Hulkie | nacc, so guess i have to change the OS, right? | 18:40 |
| akik | neverever: only you and the document you followed know where you unpacked it | 18:40 |
| SirSlippers | no I cant boot to GUI ... the screen goes black and all I see is a small tred bar with OUT OF RANGE on it | 18:41 |
| nacc | Hulkie: not necessarily (although 12.04 goes EOL relatively soon) | 18:41 |
| neverever | akik: we already installed everything and we were on the program but then we x'ed out to restart it and we don't know how to find it again | 18:41 |
| SirSlippers | Bashing=om ... WHERE do I put "NOMODETEST" ???? | 18:42 |
| Bashing-om | SirSlippers: And what results in booting with the boot parameter "nomodeset" . to work around such issues ? until we can do better . | 18:42 |
| akik | neverever: in which directory you unpacked the tar? | 18:42 |
| Hulkie | nacc, i have a vps, when i did a distro-upgrade got the same kernel because of the HOST's kernel, that's what i read @ google. | 18:42 |
| nacc | varaindemian: DE is part of the core graphical system, yes, but updates occur for security issues as necessary | 18:42 |
| nacc | Hulkie: hrm? why was that directed at me? | 18:43 |
| ccolorado | Hey I am getting this error when trying to install apache2 on ubuntu 14.04 machine. Any ideas ? http://pastebin.com/53RRgKnR | 18:43 |
| SirSlippers | HOW do I boot with the boot parameter "NOMODETEST" ??? | 18:43 |
| castro | i have problem update kernel ubuntu 14 | 18:43 |
| akik | neverever: go into that directory and compare the filenames with the tar -tvf Schrodinger_suites_2016.tar output. your application will be there | 18:43 |
| Hulkie | nacc, is there a poit to upg distro if the kernel remains the same ? | 18:43 |
| Hulkie | point* | 18:43 |
| varaindemian | nacc: yeah, but what packages gets updates more often or how do you actually get packages updated? | 18:44 |
| nacc | Hulkie: i take it you're using containerized VPS? | 18:44 |
| varaindemian | for example firefox gets updates instantly | 18:44 |
| nacc | Hulkie: and yes, as the kernel is just one part of your distribution; and in the case of containerized VPS, you're not necessarily running the distribution's kernel | 18:44 |
| nacc | varaindemian: no it doesn't | 18:44 |
| Bashing-om | SirSlippers: Read thge tutorial provided . Ultimately, boot to the grub boot menu -> boot parameters screen, make the edit to the command line ; key combo ctl+x to continue the boot process. | 18:45 |
| varaindemian | nacc: I mean, more often | 18:45 |
| Hulkie | nacc, yeap KVM | 18:45 |

| SirSlippers | I have hit F12 ... started the install form DVD ... hit ESC to stiop the install and am now at a screen that hasa nice XUBUNTU logo on it plus "Try Ubuntu without ionstalling" and a list of F-keys at thebottom | 18:47 |
| SirSlippers | This is a Gem monitor on an IBM Thinkpad with 2.5Ghz processor and 2 gigs ram on 400G hard drive ... | 18:48 |
| OerHeks | SirSlippers, now hit F6 and choose nomodeset | 18:48 |
| OerHeks | see bottompanel | 18:48 |
| Backwards | SirSlippers sometimes on an install, there is a screen saver. Move the mouse or hit the space bar to see if that works. | 18:48 |
| SirSlippers | Oerheks > thankx THAT'S what I was looking for! | 18:48 |
| neverever | akik: thank you!! | 18:49 |
| akik | neverever: no problem. you said it yourself, this was very basic thing | 18:49 |
| SirSlippers | OK ... YES!! the screen is not great graphics but now I can at least the Xubuntu 16.04 logo | 18:51 |
| nacc | varaindemian: that just means there were more bugs int he original version :) | 18:52 |
| nacc | Hulkie: KVM != containers | 18:52 |
| django_ | when i do ls is there a way to pipe it with grep to only display thngs that start with h | 18:52 |
| SirSlippers | I've loaded Xubuntu 6.10 on it already and I want to delete that all and put this new version on ... I have a paclage called KXStudio that I want to run .. after install .. how do I get that installed? | 18:52 |
| Bashing-om | SirSlippers: Making good progress . .. Before we contine .. did you verify the .iso file download ? | 18:52 |
| nacc | Hulkie: if you did a dist-upgrade in a KVM guest and rebooted, you'd be able to switch the kernel (aiui). I guess maybe VPS don't let you do that, but I'm not sure and it'd be specific to the VPS | 18:52 |
| nacc | django_: ls | grep ^h ? | 18:53 |
| nacc | django_: might need quotes | 18:53 |
| EriC^^ | django_: or ls h* | 18:53 |

| Backwards | SirSlippers I have had that problem a few times. If you move your mouse around the screen even in the corners of the screen you may find drop down menu or just right click mouse and look for video options. It couuld also be an old video card. | 18:53 |
| SirSlippers | Bashing-om: > ahhh .. I downloaded from my Windows machine and burnt the disk then used that on the ThinkCenter | 18:53 |

| apb1963 | 14.04 LTS | 18:54 |
| SirSlippers | Backwards: > thankx ... I got the graphics desktop now | 18:55 |
| nacc | Hulkie: if you did dist-upgrad,e though, regardless of the kernel level, and rebooted, you shouldn't be seeing htat particular bug with 14.04 or later | 18:55 |
| Backwards | Good. Is your machine a 64 or 32 bit? | 18:55 |
| Bashing-om | SirSlippers: We want a confirmed install foundation .. in that boot menu is the option " check disk for defects" . choose it and what results after a period of time ? | 18:55 |
| nacc | apb1963: there's many options; evince, xpdf, etc | 18:55 |
| SirSlippers | Backwards: > its a 32 ... how do I tell if it installed this 14.4 to hard drive? | 18:56 |
| nacc | !pdf | apb1963 | 18:56 |
| ubottu | apb1963: The Portable Document Format is created by Adobe; PDF files are viewable in Ubuntu with Xpdf, Okular, Evince and also Adobe Reader (free download, but closed source) | 18:56 |
| varaindemian | nacc: so unless I add ppas and the packages I currently have don't issues I won't get updates, right? | 18:56 |
| OerHeks | Hulkie, VPS usually are heavily tweakes, ask your vendor for an update | 18:56 |

| Backwards | Also open up a terminal and type in ls -all | 18:57 |
| nacc | apb1963: ok, so you asked to read PDF files, what you emant was filling out XFA forms (for the future, ask the more precise question) | 18:58 |

| nacc | varaindemian: ppas are unrelated to getting updates, afaict | 18:59 |
| nacc | varaindemian: for released versions of Ubuntu, you'll get updates when bugs are fixed, etc | 18:59 |
| Backwards | If it is installed why format it? | 18:59 |

| Backwards | SirSlippers I have a 32 bit machine and installed Wily Ubuntu 15.10 The graphics are lousy. I run the box headless and SSH into the box. | 19:01 |
| SirSlippers | I have 4 diferent versions set up on here | 19:01 |
| nacc | varaindemian: i meant that having ppas enabled has nothing to do with the rate at which packages get updated, necessarily | 19:01 |
| SirSlippers | most of the packages I have don't work on Xubuntu 6.10 and there are other installs that were incomplete because of the problem with the monitor .. so I want to WIPE my hard drive and get a good clean install in there | 19:03 |
| Backwards | SirSlippers a nice thing to try with your Windows Box is Oracle VBOX. You can try different kernels of Ubuntu and see which one you like before installing on a dedicated box or just Run it Virtual Machine. | 19:03 |
| SirSlippers | I have XP Pro +SP3 on my windows computer ... (sigh) .. I'm TIRED of the WinDoZe bloat and have jumped ship to Linux ... | 19:04 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | SirSlippers, ok and also XP for consumers and small businesses hasn't been supported with security updates since April 4th/6th 2014 | 19:05 |
| SirSlippers | I actually jumped ship from Apply ][+ to MS-DOS 2.0 when they were dumping us too | 19:05 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | SirSlippers, again unsupported software, so a good idea for the switch, but what's your issue with Ubuntu then? | 19:06 |
| SirSlippers | right .. doesn't mean it doesnt work! just cause there's snow on the roof don't mean there aint no fire in the furnace! | 19:06 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | ok | 19:06 |
| SirSlippers | XP Pro has been a good friend for a decade now ... but its time has come ... Linux seems to be the way to go now Apple is too expensive and too M$ now | 19:07 |

| SebthreeBQM10HD | that it should be able to find | 19:11 |
| scrupul0us | i did update, upgrade | 19:11 |
| Backwards | SirSlippers you can still use XP Pro with your Linux box. There are two free softwares out there: One is WinSCP it is a GUI for Windows. The other is pUTTY Both are free and I use them all of the time. | 19:11 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | might be an issue with the repos yes | 19:11 |
| Backwards | You don't need a Screen on your Ubuntu box if you use the above. | 19:11 |
| scrupul0us | okie, wasnt sure if it was a "known" issue at the moment… maybe they are being updated | 19:11 |
| apb1963 | nacc: Thanks, I don't see a package for it. The source code looks like a bit of a pain to compile as it needs various libraries and env variables set and that's when I doublechecked the authors site, wherein there is NO mention of XFA forms. I would think that such a feature would be highlighted if supported. | 19:12 |

| ubottu | will8272: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 19:17 |
| nacc | will8272: what bug did you find? | 19:17 |
| will8272 | weird printing error, print to PDF from kicad and everything is there, but try to print that PDF and various bits disappear - like the pads, print-preview faithfully shows the error before the printer makes it solid | 19:19 |
| nacc | will8272: so does that imply (print preview showing the error) that the bug is actually in kicad? | 19:19 |
| will8272 | nope, kicard isn't running by then, it happens between PDF viewer and the printer | 19:20 |
| nacc | will8272: oh the pdf print preview is what shows the error? so maybe the pdf viewer has a bug? | 19:21 |
| nacc | will8272: is it reproducible across multiple PDF viewers? | 19:21 |
| will8272 | using diffrent PDF viewers doesn't seem to help, perhaps its a libray issue, but I don't know enough about the data flow to guess much more | 19:21 |
| nacc | will8272: well, i'd probably start with filing a bug against the viewer, maybe upload the PDF that prints incorrectly in the bug | 19:23 |

| scrupul0us | i duped the sources from the VPS and am updating apt now | 19:37 |
| nacc | scrupul0us: if i had to guess, your dedicated system's cobbler mirror was out of date; in the future, you might check `apt-cache policy libpq-dev` first, to see where it thinks it should be getting it from. But givenyou only had main, you would have missed, minimally, the security updates for that package | 19:39 |

| kukur | can I run a command on remote server from local terminal if I have ssh access? | 20:26 |
| reisio | kukur: yup | 20:26 |
| kukur | reisio: how? | 20:26 |
| reisio | ssh in and run it, or ssh user@host 'command' | 20:26 |

| fat-marty | Hi all. I am considering purchase of Inspiron 5000, intend to replace Windows with 14.04. How can I be certain that 14.04 will support the touch-screen BEFORE purchase lol. Is this the right place to ask this question? | 20:28 |
| kukur | reisio: well, I want to get backup of postgresql database ( I know the command) but for this I need to make ssh login everytime. I am willing to automate this in a small script. So this script will be on my local machine and whenever I need backup I run the script and it do backup for me | 20:29 |
| SchrodingersScat | kukur: you can add a command at the end, if you just want it to run that and exit. for example, ssh user@box uptime | 20:29 |
| reisio | kukur: you want the backup on the remote? | 20:29 |
| kukur | SchrodingersScat: thanks, that seems working, any guide for that if there are some advance flags? | 20:30 |
| bekks | kukur: Run a cron job on your postgres server, and just transfer your backup after that. No need for ssh for creating the actual backup- | 20:30 |
| kukur | reisio: yes, but want to trigger that from local | 20:30 |
| reisio | kukur: why | 20:30 |
| SchrodingersScat | kukur: I rarely use ssh that way, not sure what pitfalls you might hit, I would think flags should be ok. | 20:31 |
| kukur | bekks: I need that on user's request without cron | 20:31 |
| reisio | so, what you've already been told will work, then | 20:32 |
| SchrodingersScat | kukur: ansible is another option, but really more geared toward if you had multiple machines to run this on, probably overkill for one. | 20:33 |
| kukur | thanks | 20:33 |
| kukur | :) | 20:33 |

| reisio | TGVoid: a ddrescue copy of an entire drive? You'll probably need to find the specific partition offsets to mount them | 20:40 |
| reisio | TGVoid: various howtos for that online | 20:40 |
| TGVoid | reisio: It's a copy of a single partition | 20:40 |
| TGVoid | reisio: I just want to rescue the files while keeping names and directories | 20:41 |
| SchrodingersScat | !password | LostForgotten, liveUSB would get you to the existing files, with some caveats that if the data is encrypted then you'll need to decrypt them | 20:41 |
| ubottu | LostForgotten, liveUSB would get you to the existing files, with some caveats that if the data is encrypted then you'll need to decrypt them: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password?

| tgm4883 | multifractal: did you install libboost-system1.54-dev ? That package seems to have those files | 20:51 |
| multifractal | I used "sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends libboost-all-dev" from Caffe installation instructions, and also tried "sudo apt-get install libboost-dev" | 20:52 |

| reisio | TGVoid: 'sda' isn't likely a single partition; are you still saying it's an image of a single filesystem? | 20:52 |
| multifractal | tgm4883 No packages found. I think I have 1.54.0 | 20:53 |

| Grorco | I have a file on my desktop I can't delete because it says it doesn't exist... | 20:56 |
| tgm4883 | multifractal: well you'll probably need to remove the symlinks you just made. No need to remove any packages, just install the package I just listed | 20:56 |
| TGVoid | reisio: It's an image of 1 partition of a corrupted hard drive from a Windows 10 laptop. I sent the laptop in for repair, so I no longer have the drive | 20:56 |

| tgm4883 | Grorco: are you looking at it from the desktop, or from the terminal? | 20:57 |
| Grorco | tgm4883: From the desktop | 20:57 |
| tgm4883 | Grorco: what's the output of "ls -l ~/Desktop" | 20:57 |
| reisio | TGVoid: anyway, there are two obvious possibilities: 1) it's an image of more than a single partition, and you'll have to tell 'mount' some offsets to mount a single partition within it, or 2) as it says, it is broken, you will have to use file recovery tools and cross your fingers | 20:57 |
| hudnix | Bashing-om: nvidia-361, amd64-microcode | 20:57 |
| multifractal | tgm4883 It installed, but no symlinks appeared. And the C++ code fails to compile at that include statement. | 20:58 |
| tgm4883 | multifractal: interesting. Any errors during install? | 20:58 |
| Grorco | tgm4883: terminal doesn't show it | 20:58 |
| tgm4883 | Grorco: does it show other files? | 20:58 |

| multifractal | tgm4883 I tell a lie; i just didn't look at the C++ error carefully. Now there IS a symlink for libboost_system.so, but no symlink libboost_filesystem.so. So it's failing to compile that one. | 21:02 |

| Vlek | jatt, okay, I think I need to restart then because I've put the file in the location already, but the command isn't showing. Thanks. | 21:02 |
| multifractal | So it just made 1 symlink, but I need one for each of the libboost so's, right? | 21:02 |

| TGVoid | reisio: I think the 2 partitions might be the case. I see 2 "partitions" within the partition I copied | 21:09 |
| TGVoid | reisio: I believe I started saving it to another file, deleted the file, and continued on the original file while imaging the drive | 21:09 |
| jatt | Vlek: please check whether the script has the executable bit set, you can do it with ls -altr <full path of the script> | 21:10 |
| reisio | TGVoid: that'd be better than it just being a broken single partition | 21:10 |

| === CATS is now known as cats | ||
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: if testdisk showed none as the partition table type at first then it's probably a partition image, also the file command shows the image to be a ntfs partition as well | 21:26 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: I do have the partition image, but I think it split while I imaged it | 21:26 |
| EriC^^ | split how? | 21:26 |
| EriC^^ | maybe try cat image1 image2 > newimage | 21:27 |
| EriC^^ | if you have the space | 21:27 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: I ran DDrescue, paused it midway, changed the output file, paused, deleted the new output file, and put in the old output file and resumed. | 21:27 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: you have 2 files right now? | 21:28 |
| reisio | TGVoid: then you're using the command wrong | 21:28 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: No, one | 21:28 |
| Pazooza | How do you shut off sticky windows or stick borders or what ever it is? | 21:29 |
| EriC^^ | so you wrote some of the output to a file that you deleted | 21:29 |
| TGVoid | reisio: How though? I don't see a problem. I multiplied the starting sector by 512 and used that as the offset like the guide told me | 21:29 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Yes | 21:29 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: that could screw up the MFT i think that's at the end of the partition | 21:29 |
| k1l_ | Pazooza: unity-tweak-tool can handle that | 21:29 |
| Pazooza | Ok | 21:30 |
| EriC^^ | maybe the filesystem doesn't know where to look for the right stuff now | 21:30 |

| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try chkdsk and see what happens i'd say | 21:32 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: "command not found" | 21:33 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: another option would be (kind of far fetched though) is to use testdisk to recover the deleted file or at least the size it had, and fill in the image you have with that amount of just zero's so it's aligned at the end where the mft is (i'm just guessing here) | 21:33 |
| Pazooza | Is that called window snapping, kil_? | 21:33 |
| reisio | TGVoid: mount -o loop,... | 21:33 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: you have to run it from windows | 21:34 |
| hudnix | I now can't find the person who was helping me, but the new nvidia driver worked, thanks | 21:34 |
| reisio | if the FS is broken, possibly chkdsk from Windows will help; but if mount thinks it isn't even a partition, that won't help | 21:34 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: where did you do the imaging? | 21:34 |

| EriC^^ | TGVoid: do you still have access to it? | 21:37 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Yes. It has my image on it | 21:37 |
| EriC^^ | ok, try using testdisk to see if you can still see it there, don't write anything, just press "p" over the partition in the list and browse for the file | 21:38 |
| EriC^^ | try to recover it with "c" or at least see if the size of the file is still there next to it | 21:38 |

| EriC^^ | yeah but how? | 21:51 |
| EriC^^ | what feature | 21:51 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Using the Intel setting, quick searching, and then copying | 21:53 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: that's supposed to search for lost partitions, to add them to the partition table or look for files in them | 21:54 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: give it a shot i guess | 21:54 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try with "none" too | 21:55 |
| EriC^^ | as you dont really have a partition table.. | 21:55 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: maybe some ntfs specialized recovery tools might help? | 21:56 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: With none it automatically displays NTFS. Viewing the files shows "can't open filesystem. Filesystem seems damaged." | 21:56 |

| apb1963 | nacc: so it's been removed from the repos | 21:58 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: i'll be honest, having missing a middle part your odds are very slim | 21:58 |
| nacc | apb1963: it hasn't been in the repos since at least 12.04 according to rmadison | 21:58 |
| EriC^^ | i'd photorec the living heck out of it and then try your luck with other stuff and chkdsk | 21:59 |
| nacc | apb1963: maybe it's been in some other repository than the main one? | 21:59 |
| apb1963 | I don't know | 21:59 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Would writing the missing part with 0s work? | 21:59 |
| apb1963 | All I know is I'm coming dangerously close to going back to Windows after avoiding it for over 25 years. | 21:59 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: it could i guess | 21:59 |
| nacc | apb1963: why? for fillable PDF forms? | 22:00 |
| nacc | apb1963: complain to acrobat about that, it's a non-standard standard | 22:00 |
| apb1963 | nacc: Uncle Sam says jump... I ask how high | 22:00 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Is it worth a shot? | 22:00 |
| randoking | Hi | 22:00 |
| arooni | i'm often connected to my home network; i'm wondering if theres also a way to network mount a ubuntu ext4 drive so mac os x can see it; then i could just use arq which does it all for me | 22:00 |
| arooni | ? | 22:00 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: you don't have which part is missing though | 22:00 |
| nacc | apb1963: there are hacky workarounds, from what I gather, but nothing other than acrobat on windows will do it properly, and even that not always :/ | 22:00 |
| randoking | Anyone point me to PSAD support ? | 22:00 |
| nacc | arooni: network mount? do you mean export an ext4 drive over the network? | 22:01 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: We do know when one part ends and the other starts | 22:01 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: i'd try photorec first, then the other tools in that list, then chkdsk, chkdsk might still work (might) | 22:01 |
| bprompt | apb1963: what do you need acrobat for anyway? | 22:01 |
| EriC^^ | i think there's a backup mft at the end and one at the start i think, was the missing part 1/4 at the start or the last 1/4 ? | 22:01 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: how do you know that? | 22:01 |
| arooni | nacc i'm not sure what you mean by export; but make it accessible on only a trusted network (my home network but not any other) via username/password ; something like this | 22:01 |
| apb1963 | nacc: I just realized I may be going about this wrong... I want to try and run it under wine | 22:01 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: | 22:02 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: fdisk -l | 22:02 |
| apb1963 | bprompt: Because the gov't chooses to use XFA forms in its PDF files | 22:02 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: that just shows the 2 linux partitions testdisk recovered somehow even though it's just a ntfs partition | 22:03 |
| nacc | arooni: network mount usually means you have a network-visible filesystem and you are trying to mount it locally (and you wouldn't mention ext4 then, as that's not relevant to the clients mounting). I think what you are trying to do is serve a particular filesystem/directory over your local network? | 22:03 |
| nacc | arooni: mac and linux clients? or also windows? | 22:03 |
| arooni | nacc exactly! but again i dont want it to be accessible on any network but my own | 22:03 |
| arooni | nacc in my case it only needs to work for a mac client | 22:03 |
| nacc | arooni: whether or not it's accessible is up to your network configuraion | 22:03 |
| === Agent is now known as AGENT | ||
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: hmm, there might be a way i guess | 22:04 |
| nacc | arooni: i believe macs can use NFS, that's probably what i'd do | 22:04 |
| nacc | !nfs | arooni | 22:04 |
| ubottu | arooni: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 22:04 |
| arooni | nacc well if i connect to a different wireless ap at a coffee shop or something i dont want my whole file system available | 22:04 |
| nacc | arooni: oh i see | 22:04 |
| arooni | nacc and i can use NFS without having to reformat the drive ubuntu si on | 22:04 |
| arooni | ? | 22:04 |
| arooni | is on | 22:04 |
| nacc | arooni: yes, it is a protocol, nothing to do with the fs contents itself | 22:05 |
| arooni | nacc what would your suggestion be to ensure that the NFS happens only on my local network | 22:05 |
| apb1963 | hate it when they don't label buttons | 22:05 |
| nacc | arooni: i'm sure there is a way to do what you're suggesting, i'm not sure how though :) | 22:05 |
| arooni | got it | 22:06 |
| apb1963 | arooni: What are you trying to do exactly? | 22:06 |
| nacc | arooni: how well-configured is your home network? | 22:06 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Would it work 100% | 22:06 |
| arooni | decently; its an impossible to remember long secured wpa2 password; and im in a residential neighborhood | 22:07 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: nevermind | 22:07 |
| nacc | arooni: i meant more hostnames, domain-name, etc. you can restrict nfs access by remote host information | 22:07 |
| Ben64 | impossible to remember isn't good | 22:07 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: It won't work? | 22:08 |
| arooni | naac ahh gotcha; yeah i really only need to allow my mac mini's hostname to access it | 22:08 |
| TGVoid | Ben64: Hey! Thanks for your help that one day! | 22:08 |
| Loshki | arooni: it should be possible to configure the server to only answer requests from the local network | 22:08 |
| Ben64 | TGVoid: np | 22:09 |
| arooni | Loshki is there a way to add username/password to it somehow so i can prevent hostname spoofing | 22:09 |
| nacc | Loshki: right, the issue is arooni's local netowrk can change (when they got to the cafe), etc. | 22:09 |
| nacc | arooni: i am 99% sure you can add auth layers to nfs | 22:09 |
| jge_ | hey all, anyone know how to configure transmission with a proxy? | 22:10 |
| === bitti is now known as bitti_away | ||
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: it's pretty hard | 22:10 |
| arooni | well now at least i have a name of a tool | 22:10 |
| Loshki | arooni: gonna have to do the reading (sorry). https://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Deployment_Guide-en-US/s1-nfs-security.html | 22:10 |
| arooni | and an approach; more than i had before | 22:10 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try some of those tools in the list, maybe photorec first if you'd like | 22:10 |
| nacc | arooni: yeah, google around and i'm sure you'll find a guide, it might even be on the ubuntu wiki already, just ina subsection | 22:10 |
| EriC^^ | apt-cache search ntfs recovery | 22:10 |
| nacc | arooni: nfs has lots of options, etc. | 22:11 |
| * arooni wondering if its easier to set up to NFS or to figure out a client or way to auto backup contents of my ubuntu laptop to aws glacier (such as how arq does it on a mac) | 22:11 | |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try scrounge-ntfs it sounds promising | 22:13 |
| tgm4883 | arooni: IDK what's available, but a long time ago there was a paid app that did that | 22:14 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: I can't find a guide on it | 22:14 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: http://thewalter.net/stef/software/scrounge/scrounge-ntfs.html | 22:15 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Thanks | 22:16 |
| EriC^^ | np | 22:16 |
| junaid_ | #launchpad | 22:18 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: "invalid mft record" | 22:21 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: did you run scrounge-ntfs -l first? | 22:23 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: I thought that was for pre-corruption | 22:23 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: I'll do that now | 22:23 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Same thing | 22:24 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Is there anything else we can do? | 22:37 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try photorec to get the important stuff | 22:38 |
| EriC^^ | then try chkdsk | 22:39 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Hope is lost then | 22:39 |
| EriC^^ | chkdsk still might work, i dont trust it though not to corrupt it more, that's why i'd use photorec first | 22:39 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: I can try checkdisk, but the file names and directories are a necessity. | 22:40 |
| EriC^^ | what data is it? | 22:40 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: I have many servers that I really need | 22:40 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: There are some videos that I can live without | 22:40 |
| EriC^^ | virtualbox servers? | 22:41 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Minecraft servers | 22:41 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: The servers have a few files with unique names | 22:41 |
| EriC^^ | what about the important stuff, are they just a few files? | 22:42 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: That is the important stuff IMO. I need the entire directory with the same file names in order for them to function | 22:43 |
| EriC^^ | oh | 22:44 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: So photorec is the only option? | 22:45 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Or is there a slim chance that Testdisk will work? | 22:46 |
| EriC^^ | it might i guess | 22:46 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Is it risky? | 22:46 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: try advanced below analyze | 22:48 |
| EriC^^ | see if there's any repair mft option | 22:48 |
| EriC^^ | or any options it has | 22:49 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: Intel or none? | 22:49 |
| EriC^^ | none | 22:49 |
| TGVoid | There's type and boot | 22:50 |
| TGVoid | The other ones are useless | 22:50 |
| TGVoid | EriC^^: ^^ | 22:50 |
| computer | people, i am trying to install a program through sudo apt-get and it seems i already have it, but i cannot execute it, i get permission denied, how can i by pass this? | 22:50 |

| TGVoid | computer: If it says "permission denied" use sudo before the command | 22:51 |
| OerHeks | computer, more details please, what ubuntu, what program? | 22:51 |
| computer | TGVoid: OerHeks i already used sudo | 22:52 |

| TGVoid | EriC^^: It didn't work | 23:03 |
| EriC^^ | TGVoid: scrounge-ntfs or the backup bs? | 23:05 |
| Bray90820 | Is there a way to slow down the pointer speed to less than what system setting will allow | 23:05 |

| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: 1) You wanted to work on your sound issue first | 23:22 |
| Valkyrie115 | okay | 23:23 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: 2) That is installing the windows version of steam | 23:23 |
| Valkyrie115 | so what's the command again | 23:23 |
| tgm4883 | lspci | 23:23 |
| Valkyrie115 | I see | 23:23 |
| Valkyrie115 | so just enter lspci | 23:24 |
| tgm4883 | I've not troubleshot a sound issue in a long time, so if anyone wants to pipe up that would be great | 23:24 |

| ubottu | Sik: first of all,: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. | 23:25 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: 'lspci | nc termbin.com 9999' | 23:25 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: that will give you a link | 23:25 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: which you need to paste here | 23:25 |
| Valkyrie115 | okay | 23:25 |
| Sik | well ok thanks for that ( ・・) I still need to come up with suggestions over the wi-fi thing, anyway (even if for later) any ideas? | 23:25 |
| nacc | Sik: can you get wired? you shouldn't need the wireless during the upgrade itself | 23:26 |
| Valkyrie115 | so this is steams **** up this is clear | 23:26 |
| nacc | Sik: i would think it would d/l the set of packages first, before initiating the upgrade | 23:26 |
| Valkyrie115 | I need the apt-get install command | 23:26 |
| * tgm4883 sighs | 23:26 | |
| Sik | Living in a hotel and the router isn't mine, so no :/ (otherwise I'd go wired all the way) | 23:26 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: why? You wanted to work on the sound issue | 23:26 |
| * Valkyrie115 sighs as well | 23:26 | |
| nacc | Sik: if your connection is really that inconsistent, then it might just take a bunch of resumptions | 23:26 |
| Valkyrie115 | lol | 23:26 |
| Valkyrie115 | well this whole thing is a cluster | 23:26 |
| Valkyrie115 | wouldn't you say | 23:26 |
| Ben64 | pick one issue and work on it | 23:27 |
| Sik | ...right I think it downloads everything first, but does anything happen if that gets interrupted? ( ・・) Also I was wondering about the minimal installer in case the standard one fails | 23:27 |
| Valkyrie115 | Tons of missing drivers and I'm regretting installing ubuntu | 23:27 |
| Valkyrie115 | Honestly | 23:27 |
| Sik | But I guess you have a point | 23:27 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: IDK, I'm playing Kerbal Space Program on steam on my second monitor right now | 23:27 |
| Valkyrie115 | Yeah | 23:27 |
| Valkyrie115 | When I had Windows all the drivers were installed but that's too much to ask | 23:27 |
| speed_ | i am having troubble with ubuntu 14.04 using the Nvidia GTX 960 ever since i got that card i cant log into a GUI | 23:27 |
| Ben64 | Valkyrie115: pick one problem, explain the problem, wait for response, paste what people ask for, get the help, done | 23:28 |
| noobwithaquestio | Hello. So I recently installed 16.04 and after fighting with drivers for my 980Ti I finally got everything to boot after setting my boot to Text Mode. I was eble to decrypt and everything was fine. However, when I try to restart I watch the text mode start and then it stops at a line similar to "Power Button registered as temperature point" and I have no idea what the issue may be. Can anyone help? I can boot in via GRUB an | 23:28 |
| Valkyrie115 | There are loads of problems with my computer right now including display ones so | 23:28 |
| Valkyrie115 | I guess I'll go with the Steam issue first | 23:28 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: you sure? | 23:28 |
| Valkyrie115 | Yeah | 23:28 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: ok, steam it is | 23:28 |
| Valkyrie115 | While I have a million issues | 23:29 |
| ruizgatti | ola | 23:29 |
| Valkyrie115 | so what do I enter in for Steam to install | 23:29 |
| ruizgatti | hola!! | 23:30 |
| pauljw | !es | ruizgatti | 23:30 |
| ubottu | ruizgatti: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 23:30 |
| speed_ | i dont know how to get into a command shell iether | 23:30 |
| Ben64 | <nacc> Valkyrie115: please pastebin `apt-cache policy steam-launcher` | 23:30 |
| ruizgatti | ok | 23:30 |
| pauljw | :) | 23:30 |
| apb1963 | Ben64: core dumps | 23:31 |
| speed_ | well, in advanced options for ubuntu i can but i cant do apt-get commands there | 23:31 |
| Ben64 | speed_: ?? | 23:31 |
| speed_ | im trying to see if i can purge the nvidia drivers from my system to get it to login | 23:31 |
| speed_ | but i need shell acess to do that | 23:32 |
| Ben64 | speed_: what do you mean you can't do apt-get | 23:32 |
| nacc | speed_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2263316 ? | 23:32 |
| Valkyrie115 | pastebin/XY0HHejt | 23:32 |
| Valkyrie115 | that's what I see | 23:32 |
| Valkyrie115 | pastebin.com/XY0HHejt | 23:32 |
| speed_ | but i cant login | 23:32 |
| Valkyrie115 | tgm4883: are you there | 23:33 |
| speed_ | i cant get to terminal, and idk how to get past the login screen to get shell acess | 23:33 |
| nacc | Valkyrie115: right, so you used some external source for steam, whichi s not necessary in 16.04 | 23:33 |
| nacc | Valkyrie115: well, hasn't been necessary since 14.04 (afaict) | 23:33 |
| Ben64 | speed_: use recovery mode | 23:33 |
| nacc | !info steam xenial | 23:33 |
| ubottu | steam (source: steam): Valve's Steam digital software delivery system. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 1:1.0.0.48-1ubuntu3 (xenial), package size 853 kB, installed size 2600 kB (Only available for i386) | 23:33 |
| Valkyrie115 | okay | 23:34 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: do this "dpkg -l | grep steam | nc termbin.com 9999" | 23:34 |
| Valkyrie115 | I'm a newbie to this whole ubuntu thing lol | 23:34 |
| nacc | speed_: if you're at the login screen, you could also drop to the sheell (ctrl+alt+f1) | 23:34 |
| apb1963 | Ben64: my /tmp has several core dumps, all in all totaling 9.5G. I guess I can delete them. | 23:34 |
| speed_ | ah | 23:34 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: that's ok. Open a terminal and type (or copy and paste) that all in | 23:35 |
| Valkyrie115 | termbin.com/m3hp | 23:35 |
| Valkyrie115 | m4hp * | 23:35 |
| apb1963 | Ben64: but that brings up an interesting question... what happens the next time something dumps core if I have a RAM disk that's too small to hold it? Probably just not get a core dump if there's no room to hold it yes? | 23:36 |
| Ben64 | apb1963: i suppose. how big is each one? | 23:36 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: ok, so then lets do this. Lets remove that package "sudo apt remove steam-launcher" | 23:36 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: then lets do this. 'ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | nc termbin.com 9999' | 23:37 |
| apb1963 | Ben64: they vary... the largest is 4.3G | 23:37 |
| Ben64 | apb1963: ew | 23:37 |
| apb1963 | Ben64: yeah | 23:37 |
| Valkyrie115 | okay | 23:38 |
| Valkyrie115 | one sec | 23:38 |
| apb1963 | Ben64: probably firefox if I had to guess | 23:38 |
| Valkyrie115 | termbin.com/kbyn | 23:39 |
| Ben64 | feb 10 2014? | 23:40 |
| Ben64 | Valkyrie115: this is a new install? ubuntu 16.04? | 23:40 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: ok do this "lsb_release -a | nc termbin.com 9999" | 23:40 |
| Valkyrie115 | Yes Ben64 | 23:40 |
| Valkyrie115 | -_- | 23:40 |
| tgm4883 | Ben64: It wouldn't surprise me if valve was doing something dumb there | 23:40 |
| Ben64 | oh maybe | 23:40 |
| tgm4883 | Ben64: they probably ship the file and place it there rather than write a new file | 23:41 |
| Valkyrie115 | termbin.com/bfcc | 23:41 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: ok perfect | 23:41 |
| tgm4883 | So lets do this | 23:42 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: "sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/steam.list" | 23:42 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: then do "sudo apt update" | 23:42 |
| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: let me know when that is done | 23:42 |
| Valkyrie115 | "cannot remove | 23:42 |
| Valkyrie115 | Done | 23:43 |
| Ben64 | Valkyrie115: whats the cannot remove thing? | 23:44 |
| * Valkyrie115 sighs | 23:44 | |
| Valkyrie115 | it can't remove the source | 23:44 |
| Ben64 | did you use sudo | 23:44 |
| Valkyrie115 | I'm sorry but I think I possibly might go with Windows if I can't get this working | 23:44 |
| Ben64 | you can if you follow the steps | 23:45 |

| nacc | Valkyrie115: and you're being helped, but it's not obvious you're doing exactly what is being asked in order to fix the issues (sudo wouldn't have said cannot remove) | 23:46 |

| OerHeks | oh | 23:47 |
| tgm4883 | nom nom nom | 23:47 |
| nacc | OerHeks: yep, although i would recommend php-dev instead (better on upgrade paths/future-proof) | 23:47 |
| nacc | OerHeks: as 7.1 will be present someday, and php-dev will dtrt for upgrades there | 23:47 |
| Valkyrie115 | Is there at least something I can install to make the drivers properly install without lines of terminal commands | 23:48 |
| Valkyrie115 | If not please tell me | 23:48 |
| Valkyrie115 | I'll remove this and leave you guys alone | 23:48 |
| k1l_ | Valkyrie115: we suggest using terminal commands in here since they provide proper errormessages and so we know what is going on. | 23:49 |

| gin | Valkyrie115, you can install proprierity drivers from software sources I think | 23:49 |
| Valkyrie115 | I've tried | 23:49 |
| Valkyrie115 | Thanks for the suggestion though | 23:49 |

| tgm4883 | Valkyrie115: can you give us the output of "lspci | nc termbin.com 9999" | 23:51 |
