pflanze | Hello. After copying an installation with full disk encryption to another drive (from a USB flash drive to an HDD), how to I "install" grub to make it bootable? | 00:08 |
capum321 | duckboot 's/^[a-zA-Z].*//g' and '/^\s*$/d' what do they do? | 00:09 |
james_ | sudo grub-install /dev/sdX | 00:10 |
james_ | not /dev/sdXY | 00:10 |
pflanze | james_, how does it find the boot partition? I gave it a --boot-directory but that didn't work | 00:10 |
james_ | what's your device? | 00:10 |
Duckboot | capum321: Removes anything but the actual packagename | 00:10 |
james_ | the drive you're installing grub to | 00:11 |
pflanze | sdb, sdb2=boot, sdb3=lvm | 00:11 |
pflanze | (sdb2 was copied from sda3 and sdb3 from sda4, IIRC, sda being the flash drive) | 00:12 |
pflanze | Of course once the flash drive is gone, sda will be my main disk. | 00:12 |
capum321 | i guess it will keep sdb ? | 00:12 |
Duckboot | capum321: 's/^[a-zA-Z].*//g' - Remove anything starting with a letter (all packagelines starts with a ' ') | 00:13 |
pflanze | capum321, well, yes, *something* like that, and the man page is exactly omitting this kind of info. | 00:13 |

OneM_Industries | Well, good to know nothing too bad happened. Thank you! | 00:19 |
Duckboot | OneM_Industries: Compiz is eyecandy for the desktop. Nothing more, nothing less | 00:19 |
OneM_Industries | Hunh.. | 00:20 |
OneM_Industries | Wonder what *exactly* I killed then. | 00:20 |
tgm4883 | killing compiz would kill unity I think | 00:20 |
OneM_Industries | Because I was trying to kill firefox using system monitor, and was using memory usage for the sort. (oops) | 00:21 |
Duckboot | tgm4883: And upset X | 00:21 |

Duckboot | and the g on the end is for the whole line | 00:28 |
tgm4883 | !ltsupgrade | ddd333 | 00:28 |
ubottu | ddd333: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. | 00:28 |
ddd333 | oh tgm4883 ty very much friend | 00:29 |
capum321 | duck i started using linux, not more than 1or 2 months ago. hadn't use vim yet | 00:29 |
ddd333 | tgm4883: the big question: should i update to 16.04.1? | 00:29 |
capum321 | consistently | 00:29 |
tgm4883 | ddd333: that's up to you. I like it | 00:30 |
ddd333 | tgm4883: i have 4gb ram and Intel® Celeron(R) CPU N3150 @ 1.60GHz × 4 - should i update on july 21st? | 00:31 |
Duckboot | capum321: Aah - I started using linux back in .... -94 I think. | 00:31 |
tgm4883 | ddd333: I would | 00:32 |
capum321 | this is truly a lifetime | 00:32 |
ddd333 | ty again tgm4883 | 00:32 |
Duckboot | capum321: Was on 386BSD before that. | 00:32 |
ddd333 | i love ubuntu T_T | 00:32 |
capum321 | the other day i was seeing this chart with linux distro history | 00:33 |
DaveNull | You should always upgrade to latest LTS version for security reasins (older versions) won't be supported forever) | 00:34 |
tgm4883 | DaveNull: Generally yes, that is true | 00:34 |
capum321 | ins't lts for one who i aquire the support service? | 00:34 |
capum321 | will acquire the support service* | 00:35 |
DaveNull | But if you find out your computer is too slow, you can still switch to Lubuntu (= Ubuntu with LXDE, a Lightweight desktop environment) | 00:35 |
ddd333 | DaveNull: i was worried my hardware won't deliver with 16.04 | 00:35 |
kgb | DaveNull: if you're gonna go with Lubunutu, instead of the (AWESOME, hehe) Xubuntu, might was well use minimal CD - and then add stuff. ;dP | 00:36 |

DaveNull | ddd333, geberally if it works with an LTS version, it will work with that version+1 (still LTS), 0 risk doesn't exist in computing, but in this case the risk is quite minimal | 00:40 |

Duckboot | lDropdeadl: test failed | 00:40 |

kgb | [01:33:16] <kgb> o/ sup pplz!..:) hey, guys, eye HATE asking for help (bc, we should be able 2 figure it out, heh. :)); BUT, having had upgraded from Ubuntu 15.10 to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS I do NOT have *functional* Perl, even though everything seems to be installed!.. What's going on, for example, is that I can't load HexChat (XChat2) Plugins which require Perl; in fact, it's not there - it's not getting loaded - I don't understand it? o.0 | 00:45 |
capum321 | 'modprobe rtl8187' load up log has this "wlx00aa11bb22cc: renamed from wlan0" how this happened? I mean shouldn't it be wlan0 ? | 00:45 |
kgb | [..] is there a way to get a list of Perl files necessary to function - so that I can paste it here - and then ask WTH is going on?? :DD | 00:45 |
Tin_man | kgb, why don't you sudo apt-get remove hexchat, then purge, then re-install? | 00:47 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, have to leave to eat. I just installed list of libs that someone recomended on google | 00:47 |
capum321 | ok | 00:48 |
DaveNull | Kgb, do you have any error message? | 00:48 |
capum321 | draxdeveloper: did you resolve it? | 00:49 |
kgb | Tin_man: tyvm, it does NOT seem to be HexChat; everything is working *fine* as it had; prior to "losing" Perl - upon upgrade - Python, everything else, loads-works - just fine: http://i.imgur.com/62d0TVJ.png | 00:49 |
kgb | DaveNull: none, that I can see; give me just a moment, please!! | 00:49 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, now i searching libevdev | 00:49 |
kgb | DaveNull: it refuses to see Perl, "[02:50:02] Unknown file type .config/hexchat/addons/showhighlight.pl. Maybe you need to install the Perl or Python plugin?" | 00:50 |
DaveNull | Capum321 looks like a it's a name using your MAC address, as far as I can remember, it's a new name convention, which have something to do with systemd, if i recall correctly | 00:50 |

capum321 | draxdeveloper: dude i completely forgot about you | 00:52 |
capum321 | draxdeveloper: are you want the source or deb? | 00:52 |
capum321 | do* | 00:52 |
DaveNull | Kgb, I use perl/python scripts for XChat2 (on Debian) but can't remember who I enable it, let me think for a moment, so I try to remeber if a had to install any package | 00:52 |
draxdeveloper | campu321, i qant to patch. | 00:53 |
draxdeveloper | but the patch is asking for the source | 00:53 |
capum321 | draxdeveloper: no, we were at the source thing right | 00:53 |
draxdeveloper | ok, made the make install... Still, no source | 00:53 |
OerHeks | likely this plugin needs an update, kgb http://orvp.net/xchat/showhighlight/ | 00:53 |
kgb | DaveNull: Yes, please... If I can give you a list of what I got - or something?? Because: everything was *just fine* in 15.10 before upgrading to 16.04 LTS | 00:53 |
Tin_man | kgb, found this on google: https://www.howtoinstall.co/en/ubuntu/xenial/perl-base | 00:53 |

capum321 | draxdeveloper: what is missing? the libdev? | 00:55 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, no, i finished the make install | 00:55 |
kgb | ^^ although Synaptic reports everything as cool, meh. :-/ | 00:55 |
capum321 | draxdeveloper: all right | 00:55 |
draxdeveloper | now i am trying to apply the patch in the evdev | 00:56 |
Tin_man | np, hope it gets resolved.. | 00:56 |
* kgb goes away to take a closer look at all this... thanks again!! Tin_man, DaveNull, everyone :DD | 00:56 | |
DaveNull | Wait | 00:56 |
kgb | k? | 00:56 |
DaveNull | Do you have hexchat-perl package installed | 00:57 |
capum321 | draxdeveloper: what make install? isn't debuild? | 00:57 |
draxdeveloper | to install the tar.gz | 00:57 |

kgb | (It's, really, driving me up the wall - that's why I'm bothering the # with questions; otherwise I would, honestly, just keep trying to figure it out :)) | 00:57 |
capum321 | did you compile the package? | 00:57 |
draxdeveloper | this is the files of the evdev | 00:58 |
=== neo__ is now known as neoromantique | ||
kgb | DaveNull... | 00:58 |
capum321 | draxdeveloper: have compiled the source package? | 00:59 |
DaveNull | dpkg -l | grep hexchat-perl should return the package name if it's installed, or nothing if it isn't | 00:59 |
kgb | Would you believe me if I fold you that the package is NOT installed (*loads a gun*) | 00:59 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, how i do this? I just have extracted the tar.gz | 00:59 |
kgb | Jesus Christ. | 00:59 |
capum321 | draxdeveloper: i don't think you should make install this tar.gz | 00:59 |
capum321 | you should extract it | 01:00 |
OerHeks | !cookie | DaveNull | 01:00 |
ubottu | DaveNull: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 01:00 |
draxdeveloper | capum321 i extracted, mbut then i followed the other steps (./configure, etc) | 01:00 |
DaveNull | Thank you | 01:00 |
kgb | yeah, well, thanks for not laughing at me, blah. xD | 01:00 |
OerHeks | reinstall perl could done this too | 01:00 |
draxdeveloper | campu321, -zxvf xserver-xorg-input-evdev_2.10.1.orig.tar.gz | 01:01 |
kgb | OerHeks: done it, already, I swear.... | 01:01 |
OerHeks | but good thinking, seen this before too. | 01:01 |
draxdeveloper | then ./configure, make, make install | 01:01 |
capum321 | draxdeveloper: i think you should patch the folder you extracted! not run this steps on README ?! | 01:01 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, yeah. But is not working what he said | 01:02 |
DaveNull | Perl installs perl libraries and excutables to execute perl systemwide, while hexchat-perl only enables hexchat to use systemwide perl installation, it's an interface between hexchat and perl, but not a dependancy of perl, it's optional | 01:03 |
draxdeveloper | campu321 ,if i try into the folder it's says | 01:03 |
draxdeveloper | patch: **** read error : Is a directory | 01:03 |
capum321 | did you extracted then cd xf86-input-evdev-2.10.1 | 01:04 |
DaveNull | Making it a dependancy of perm would be non-sens because it would force perl users/distros with perl installed to have an optional package which is useless without hexchat | 01:04 |
draxdeveloper | capum321... Ah... Now i got it. | 01:05 |
draxdeveloper | will try this | 01:05 |
capum321 | go drax, go! | 01:05 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, hahahah. I think i need to put the patch file IN the xf86-input-evdev folder, right? | 01:06 |
DaveNull | So kgb, does it work now? | 01:07 |
Mitchell92 | Hello. I'm finding an issue, ubuntu has "dummy output" for my sound... rather than my real speakers / sound card? at times it switches over eventually if i go through configuration... any way to fix this? | 01:08 |

draxdeveloper | patch -p 1 < ../evdev-debounce-2.92.patch | 01:09 |
capum321 | ok | 01:10 |
draxdeveloper | like a search feature, don't know | 01:10 |
capum321 | tell me what have worked?! | 01:10 |
DaveNull | drax, when you install something from a tar.gz, you should NEVER move or rename any file, that would only break things | 01:11 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, it's seems that the shell is doing something... DOn't know what | 01:11 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, i put the patch into the src folder and the patch -p 1 evdev-debounce-2.92.patch | 01:12 |
DaveNull | So ciao everyone, I need to leave | 01:12 |
capum321 | davenull don't scare the kid ok? | 01:12 |

draxdeveloper | just | 01:21 |

nacc | draxdeveloper: you almost always do `patch -p<num> < patchfile` | 01:23 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: are you using funtoo now? you should ask them for support if so | 01:23 |
draxdeveloper | no, i am not using funtoo nacc | 01:24 |
draxdeveloper | it's just, the patch is not working :( | 01:24 |
draxdeveloper | the patch file should be in a special folderw | 01:25 |
draxdeveloper | ? | 01:25 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: i've no context, and not really goign to spend much time on it, but pastebin the outupt of `patch -p1 < evdev-debounce-2.92-patch` | 01:25 |
capum321 | < doesn't work? | 01:25 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: no, you should specify the path to the patch file, taht's all | 01:25 |

capum321 | / path/to/file../evdev-debounce.patch remember? | 01:28 |
draxdeveloper | hum... i will change to this include dir | 01:28 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: if you do that, you'll need to pass -p2 | 01:28 |
nacc | as you need to strip 2 directories if you're in the include directory | 01:28 |
draxdeveloper | yep, but i cd direct to the dir where the file is | 01:29 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: you should be running it, based upon the diff header, from ~/Downloads/evdev/xf86-input-evdev-2.10.1/ with -p1 | 01:29 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: honestly, it seems like this may not be the advisable approach if it's this difficult; patching is quite easy :) | 01:29 |

capum321 | i think you should sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-input-evdev-dev-2.10.1 accordingly | 01:35 |
capum321 | try apt-cache search xserver-xorg-input-evdev-dev | 01:35 |

draxdeveloper | nacc, no. I am attepiting to patch the evdev so i can debounce my mouse | 01:38 |
capum321 | you should run this first | 01:38 |

capum321 | draxdeveloper: now what? did you ran? | 01:39 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, it's says that it can't find a source to xserver-xorg-input-evdev-dev | 01:40 |
nacc | ugh ugh ugh | 01:40 |
capum321 | humm | 01:40 |
nacc | that blog post is wrong on at least one level | 01:40 |
capum321 | ok then go to 5th line | 01:40 |
nacc | bad version string | 01:40 |
nacc | 2.8.2-1ubuntu2 will end up overriding, potentially, an actual Ubuntu version | 01:40 |
capum321 | yes, we deal with that | 01:40 |
capum321 | dealed | 01:41 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: if you're patching an Ubuntu version, your version should be (imo) <ubuntuversion+1>~drax or wahtever... | 01:41 |
draxdeveloper | nacc, yeah... the actual one is this: https://github.com/yuyuyak/input-evdev-debounce.patch | 01:41 |
nacc | ok | 01:41 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: it's independent of the patch (version string) | 01:41 |
capum321 | he is talking about the xorg-xserver | 01:42 |
nacc | yes, i think you're patching xserver-xorg-input-evdev | 01:42 |
nacc | a) i would put this in a PPA | 01:42 |
capum321 | do the 5th line would you? | 01:42 |
nacc | b) make sure your version, if building for 16.04 is something like 2.10.1-1ubuntu3~ppa1 | 01:43 |
draxdeveloper | http://pastebin.com/BguR22Zh | 01:43 |
nacc | that way when/if 2.10.1-1ubuntu3, you'll get updated, things will break and you'll know you need to refresh your patch (because presumably the ubuntu developers put out a new release for a reason) | 01:43 |
draxdeveloper | nacc, we don't have a 2.10 version :( | 01:43 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: what ubuntu are you building for? | 01:43 |
draxdeveloper | xenial nacc | 01:43 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: uh... | 01:44 |
capum321 | draxdeveloper: what folder are you currently? | 01:44 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: the patch applied fine (well, needed a refresh due to context) to the xenial version,as you just pasted, no? | 01:44 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: so ... you hve the 2.10 version | 01:44 |
nacc | this also seems like not ubuntu support, but just my opinion :) did you or anyone else file an ubuntu bug for this? | 01:44 |
draxdeveloper | capum321 xf86-input-evdev-2.10.1 | 01:45 |
draxdeveloper | nacc, this is something ubuntu is not implementing in the kernel (debouncing the mouse) i don't know why | 01:45 |
nacc | LP: #602809 | 01:46 |

draxdeveloper | capum321, yep | 01:47 |
capum321 | let's try another path | 01:47 |
capum321 | enter source folder | 01:47 |
draxdeveloper | ok | 01:48 |
nacc | fwiw, that person (the blog post you mentioned) refers to the xserver ML, which does say they'd reconsider once a test suite exists. Has anyone checked if that's the case now? | 01:48 |
draxdeveloper | nacc, tried to found... Don't have sure if it's have but google returned me just this. | 01:48 |
draxdeveloper | in fact, it was someone on a ubuntu group | 01:49 |
notadeveloper | asd | 01:49 |
capum321 | run the command? | 01:49 |
nacc | https://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2015/08/msg00020.html someone did try to push it to debian last year, it seems | 01:50 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, same thing | 01:51 |
draxdeveloper | nacc, but someone implemented it? | 01:51 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: no the response was get it fixed upstream (and then i see no followups) | 01:53 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: so probably someone should try to submit it to xserver again | 01:53 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: you ran `apt-get source` from some directory, right? | 01:54 |
nacc | draxdeveloper: it downloaded to subdirectory of that directory; cd to there and then run `dch -i` | 01:54 |
capum321 | are you sure you are on correct path? | 01:55 |
capum321 | maybe the patch is outdated? | 01:55 |
draxdeveloper | capum321, i think it is :( | 01:55 |
nacc | it'll probably be ~/Downloads/evdev/xf86-input-evdev-2.10.1 | 01:55 |
nacc | what? | 01:55 |
nacc | capum321: draxdeveloper already applied the patch | 01:55 |
draxdeveloper | because it's for 2.92 | 01:56 |
nacc | although note, that's not how debian package building works and it will probably fail | 01:56 |

qengho | I want to download a trusted Ubuntu image, because I'm in a oppressive, technically adept part of the world and I want to make sure my downloads are good. | 02:52 |
qengho | capum321: that fails because I can't trust the place that tells me what torrent to download. | 02:52 |
qengho | It's http. | 02:52 |
superguest | e.g. I remember there used to be display of the current row,column as you resize gnome-terminal. | 02:52 |
schwax | anyone know much about mkusbs "Expansion and imaging from a compressed image file?" | 02:54 |
qengho | There's a web page that tells me to download a GPG-signed hash file and what GPG keys to use to verify, but someone with less clue than I have could have intercepted that page request and inserted their own key signature there. | 02:54 |

qengho | Not SHA1 either. | 03:11 |
qengho | SHA2 class or better. | 03:11 |
qengho | OerHeks: MD5 is fine for discovering if something is accidentally corrupted, so not completely useless. | 03:13 |
brianx | no objections here, though i suggest sha1 be kept available for those who have older tools and just need to verify the transfer worked. | 03:13 |

nickx | I had a question about Ubuntu Mate-16.04. | 03:30 |
nickx | It came with a package named Plank preinstalled which is a docking software. It was not set as "run on startup" because I do not yet know how to do it. | 03:30 |
nickx | Using Mate-tweak I set my panels as "Cupertino" which set Plank to "run on startup". | 03:30 |
nickx | I still can not see it under the list of startup applications. | 03:30 |
nickx | Question: How do I see which packages are set to start up by the desktop environment ? | 03:30 |
nedstark | nickx, the MATE control center under Startup applications preferences | 03:31 |
nedstark | is it not there? | 03:32 |
nickx | No, it isnt | 03:32 |
Loshki | nedstark: lol@imperious | 03:32 |
nickx | Since it is part of "Cupertino" it must be hidden somewhere. | 03:33 |
drama | nickx, try running plank --preferences in a term, see what that does if anything | 03:34 |
nedstark | you can also do it by hand with gksudo gedit ~/.config/plank/dock1/settings | 03:34 |
nickx | I have to create this file: "~/.config/plank/dock1/settings" ? It does not already exist. | 03:36 |
=== someone_stole_my is now known as mrkirby153 | ||
nedstark | things might be changing in the newer versions | 03:37 |
nickx | I was wondering "since it is already running on start up by default, it must have been saved as some start up script which is hidden away" | 03:37 |
drama | nickx, is it really installed? dpkg -l plank | 03:38 |
nickx | Yes, it is. Version: 0.11.1-1 | 03:39 |
nickx | It came as part of Ubuntu Mate 16.04. | 03:39 |
ominomi | a_west: :) | 03:39 |
drama | nickx, no icon on the far left side? | 03:39 |
nickx | There is. The plank settings icon. But, it does not have any option reading "start on startup". That icon opens the preferences, which are very very simple like "size of icon", "auto hide/intellihide", etc. | 03:41 |
drama | no ~/.config/plank/dock1/settings ? | 03:41 |
nickx | I am trying to find out why Plank is getting start on every start up even though it is not explicitly mentioned in the "Startup Applications Preferences" | 03:42 |
nickx | ls ~/.config/plank/dock1 --> launchers1 | 03:42 |
nickx | There is no "settings" file or folder. | 03:43 |
drama | hmmm... any HideMode = 1 means auto hide, set to 0 to disable it. in launchers1 | 03:43 |
nickx | "launchers" folder contains 3 files. 1) desktop.dockitem, 2) firefox.dockitem, 3) matecc.dockitem | 03:44 |
TheNH813 | I have a proooooooblem. | 03:48 |
TheNH813 | linux-image-extra-4.4.0-28-generic broke my install | 03:48 |
TheNH813 | After booting the previous version in recovery mode, and purging linux-image-extra-4.4.0-28-generic, it boots normally againb | 03:48 |
TheNH813 | I was unable to get any debug info as dmesg was blank and my GPU does not initialize untill 15 seconds into boot normally | 03:49 |
TheNH813 | It freezes about 6 seconds in with the new kernel | 03:49 |
Arshoon | Okay, I have an issue I was hoping I could get help with. | 03:49 |
TheNH813 | I marked all kernel related packages on non-overridable hodl for the current time | 03:50 |
TheNH813 | Arshoon: Yes? | 03:50 |
Arshoon | I play Minecraft, and am on Ubuntu MATE, and after playing for a while, my FPS dropps to 8-10 and it persists if I restart the game, try another game or try anything, like my GPU or CPU is giving up. | 03:50 |
drama | nickx, i found this sudo ln -s /usr/share/applications/plank.desktop /etc/xdg/autostart/ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2275320 | 03:50 |
Arshoon | Only a restart fixes the issue. | 03:51 |
TheNH813 | Arshoon: Sounds like the card isn't getting enough resources or is thermal throttling | 03:51 |
Arshoon | I was hoping for a not-pverheating card... | 03:51 |
TheNH813 | But, if a restart fixes it, that makes it less likely. If there's no noticeable dust buildup that shouldn't be the issue. | 03:52 |
nickx | @drama: Thanks for digging into it. | 03:52 |
TheNH813 | In the case it's a software problem, how much RAM is allocated to the GPU? | 03:52 |
TheNH813 | If you didn't touch that setting it's likely a memory leak eating up resources. | 03:53 |
Arshoon | The GPU has 1024M built in, not sure how to allocate any more if I can. | 03:53 |
Arshoon | Memory leak was my other thought. | 03:53 |
Arshoon | Not sure how to find it and kill it, though. | 03:53 |
TheNH813 | To see all processes, you'd need to run the task mnager as root. | 03:54 |
TheNH813 | sudo gnome-system-monitor | 03:54 |
TheNH813 | I think there was a bug with Nautilus memory leaking recently in network sharing support. not sure if it's patched lately. | 03:55 |
TheNH813 | *patched yet | 03:55 |
TheNH813 | Had something to do with SMB, but it only affected soem systems | 03:56 |
TheNH813 | If you have gnome-system-monitor open, then click the configure (3 horizontal bars) and select all users. | 03:57 |
Arshoon | Don't even have Nautilus on here (the system monitor under sudo), its a MATE desktop. | 03:57 |
TheNH813 | Ah, then that's not the problem. Could be another app. | 03:57 |
TheNH813 | Just today the latest version of the kernel broke my system. Had to boot recovery mode, purge it and block the update with apt-mark hold. DX | 03:58 |
TheNH813 | But, that's a issue with drivers. Actually that's what I came on here to ask about. | 03:59 |
Arshoon | My RAM and CPU are also nowhere near maxed out. | 03:59 |
Arshoon | May just have to go back to Windows... | 03:59 |
TheNH813 | Well, then it's likely a software only problem or possibly heat. | 03:59 |
TheNH813 | Hm.... are you running proprietary drivers or default? | 03:59 |
Arshoon | Proprietary Nvdidia | 03:59 |
Arshoon | Ha ha, can't type. | 04:00 |
plop_its_ellie | what version? | 04:00 |
Arshoon | 361.42 | 04:00 |
Arshoon | Thing is, its only Minecraft that has done this. I played Portal all night with no issue. | 04:00 |
TheNH813 | Let me check that out. | 04:00 |
TheNH813 | Hm.... | 04:01 |
TheNH813 | Indeed odd. | 04:01 |
TheNH813 | Do you use any mods? | 04:01 |
TheNH813 | Graphical mods to be specific | 04:01 |
TheNH813 | Like optifine | 04:01 |
plop_its_ellie | aome mods even non graphical just suck and bog down your system | 04:01 |
plop_its_ellie | *some | 04:01 |
Arshoon | All I run is a texture pack. | 04:02 |
TheNH813 | Is it super-high res? | 04:02 |
TheNH813 | (Just trying to rule all things out) | 04:03 |
Arshoon | 64x I believe. | 04:03 |
Arshoon | Not too high res. | 04:03 |
TheNH813 | Hm... | 04:03 |
Arshoon | Yeah, weird. | 04:03 |
TheNH813 | Try a newer version of LWJGL. | 04:03 |
Arshoon | Has to be a leak somewhere. | 04:03 |
Arshoon | I AM running a server as well on the local machine. | 04:04 |
plop_its_ellie | i just remembered, when i used to play minecraft it had a memory leak, I think it had something to do with openjdk | 04:04 |
nx | test | 04:04 |
Arshoon | But I never had this problem before, and its not missing any ticks. | 04:04 |
TheNH813 | That's a possibly interesting clue. | 04:04 |
TheNH813 | Maybe try Oracle Java. | 04:04 |
plop_its_ellie | yea | 04:05 |
Arshoon | Not using OpenJDK. | 04:05 |
plop_its_ellie | i recommend trying oracle java | 04:05 |
Arshoon | I am. | 04:05 |
TheNH813 | I'm gonna put blame on the graphics library, LWJGL. | 04:05 |
plop_its_ellie | ubuntu mate has openjdk preinstalled | 04:05 |
TheNH813 | Ther've been problems with that library in the past like keyboard issues and random crashes. | 04:06 |
Arshoon | Let me look at my software sources, I thought i added Oracle's | 04:06 |
Arshoon | I aded the webopd8 java repository and am using that. | 04:07 |
TheNH813 | so, you purged the openjdk first? | 04:07 |
plop_its_ellie | if you are on ubuntu mate you can just install it from the welcome menu | 04:07 |
Arshoon | <.< uh, no. | 04:07 |
TheNH813 | Sudo apt-get purge openjdk* | 04:07 |
TheNH813 | To make sure it, and all it;s configs are removed. | 04:08 |
TheNH813 | Woops the s in sudo shouldn't be caps | 04:08 |
Arshoon | purged. | 04:08 |
TheNH813 | So, it's definitely not installed them. Hm... this is an odd issue. | 04:08 |
Arshoon | I just purged it. Trying again. | 04:09 |
TheNH813 | Oh, make sure to reinstall oracle java. Just to make sure all is right. | 04:09 |
TheNH813 | At this point, I think trying any possibility is important. :P | 04:09 |
Arshoon | Well, I still have the Oracle Java and no texture pack, still 10 fps. | 04:10 |
Backwards | TheNH813 exactly in your estimation, what does purging mean? Is it a deletion of all vestiges of traces of files? | 04:10 |
plop_its_ellie | i dont recommend using purge | 04:10 |
plop_its_ellie | just use apt-get remove | 04:10 |
TheNH813 | Backwards: Yes. | 04:11 |
Backwards | I read that somewhere. | 04:11 |
TheNH813 | Backwards: It basically removes ALL references to that application from the system. | 04:11 |
Backwards | You confirmed my research. Thanks. | 04:11 |
plop_its_ellie | sudo apt-get remove default-jre-headless openjdk-8-jre-headless | 04:12 |
plop_its_ellie | using purge can be dangerous so be careful | 04:12 |
plop_its_ellie | its safer to just use remove | 04:12 |
Backwards | TheNH813, with Windows OS deletion does not purge. It just leaves garbage on the disk. | 04:12 |
Backwards | Does purge remove the data completely from the disk? | 04:12 |
TheNH813 | Not secure delete, but it makes sure files aren't left behind. as plop_it's_elite said it can occasionally break things if you do it to really important stuff. | 04:13 |
TheNH813 | By the way, has anyone noticed the terminal reccommending to use "sudo apt install <application>" instead of "sudo apt-get install <application>"? | 04:14 |
TheNH813 | And the apt command has colored output, is it some sort of wrapper? | 04:14 |
Arshoon | Totally unintalled any openjdk and headless stuff, going to restart, and see how long it takes to return. | 04:15 |
Arshoon | Thanks for all the help. | 04:15 |
Arshoon | Man, I type good... | 04:15 |
TheNH813 | Can anyone on here help me determine why kernel 4.4.0.28 freezes 6 seconds into boot? | 04:16 |
Backwards | TheNH813, I have been doing Data Recovery with Windows and make a good living with it but with Ubuntu, not sure which programs totally remove cleanly data bits 1's and 0's | 04:16 |
TheNH813 | Well, dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/<drive> will certainally nuke data. | 04:17 |
Arshoon | And. back. Man, I love Ubuntu and an SSD. | 04:17 |
TheNH813 | Arshoon: Well, now the test comes. | 04:17 |
TheNH813 | Arshoon: By the way, if all else fails, try a previous Oracle Java version. It requires 6u45 minimum, so maybe try Java 8 or 7 if it still experiences problems. | 04:19 |
TheNH813 | I had to revert to Java 8 to get Minecraft working. | 04:19 |
Backwards | TheNH13 I was referring to deletion of data without formatting a disk. | 04:20 |
TheNH813 | Ah, then dd if=/dev/urandom of=/path/to/file | 04:20 |
TheNH813 | Then delete the file | 04:20 |
TheNH813 | It's contents will be replaced with scrambledness | 04:20 |
Arshoon | I am on 8 | 04:20 |
TheNH813 | Arshoon: Ok | 04:21 |
TheNH813 | Backwards: Of course, you'd have to specify the legenth of the file to overwrite with count and bytes options. | 04:22 |
Backwards | TheNH813 so that is like diskwipe for a file and not the entire disk. | 04:22 |
TheNH813 | Yup | 04:22 |
Arshoon | Oh, now I am at 60 FPS< and I wasn't getting that before the removing the OpenJDK and headless files. | 04:22 |
TheNH813 | Well, there's some progress. :D | 04:23 |
Arshoon | I think that may have done it, serious improvement. | 04:23 |
Arshoon | I was dreading any return to Windoze | 04:24 |
TheNH813 | Must have been still using the non-Oracle Java. And yes, I knwo the feeling | 04:24 |
Backwards | TheNH813, is what you are saying is that I can use a data recovery program and not find that deleted or wiped file? | 04:24 |
TheNH813 | You'd find the file in the deleted inodes, but the contents would be gone. | 04:24 |
TheNH813 | AKA unreadable. | 04:25 |
Backwards | I have done a lot of data recovery and lots of deleted files can be seen and recovered. | 04:25 |
plop_its_ellie | i have 4.4.0-28 on my system, no issues so far | 04:25 |
Backwards | Not only that, virus programs look for those deleted files and work with them. | 04:26 |
plop_its_ellie | and running on severeal computers at work, no issues there either | 04:26 |
TheNH813 | Good to hear | 04:26 |
TheNH813 | Must have been a failed update | 04:26 |
TheNH813 | Will try reinstalling it | 04:26 |
plop_its_ellie | Backwards, the shred utility does secure erase as well | 04:26 |
TheNH813 | Backwards: Well, I'l be. I just discovered secure-delete in the software center. | 04:27 |
TheNH813 | I'l see if it's any good. :o | 04:27 |
Backwards | Thanks Plop I will do some homework on that. | 04:27 |

TheNH813 | You can't do that if you want Ubuntu to boot | 04:33 |
Backwards | Jordan I always backup everything. I have 20 terabytes of disk backups. | 04:33 |
TheNH813 | ubuntu-Haneul: Unless the PC is running XP. | 04:33 |
TheNH813 | You have to use GRUB to boot Linux. | 04:33 |
TheNH813 | And Windows | 04:33 |
TheNH813 | Unless you remove Ubuntu | 04:33 |
Backwards | Jordan true, always backup before making a decision on what to install or change. | 04:34 |
TheNH813 | The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: | 04:35 |
TheNH813 | linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic linux-image-4.4.0-24-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-24-generic linux-headers-4.4.0.24-generic thermald | 04:35 |
TheNH813 | What have I done. | 04:35 |
TheNH813 | That's the only kernel installed. | 04:35 |
TheNH813 | Something REALLY went south with the kernel 4.4.0-28 update | 04:35 |
Backwards | Jordan, there is an old Computer Programmers saying: "Happy are the pessimist for they shal save." | 04:36 |
drama | TheNH813, maybe you have the latest kernel, what does uname -r say? | 04:36 |
TheNH813 | 4.4.0-24-generic | 04:36 |
TheNH813 | That is bad. I'm not letting it remove that. | 04:36 |
plop_its_ellie | you reboot after the update? | 04:36 |
drama | TheNH813, you did a sudo apt-get update? | 04:36 |
TheNH813 | Yes. | 04:36 |
drama | then upgrade | 04:36 |
TheNH813 | I remove the newer kernel because it wsa corupt. | 04:37 |
TheNH813 | Then rebootes | 04:37 |
TheNH813 | *rebooted | 04:37 |
TheNH813 | Yeah, apt-get upgrade wants to remove the only instaled kernel version, but not install the new one. And, it's supposed to keep the previoud version. | 04:38 |
drama | TheNH813, what does sudo apt-get install linux-image-4.4.0-28-generic do? | 04:38 |
TheNH813 | Installs it. | 04:38 |
TheNH813 | But then updates manager won't keep it up to date as it's manually installed | 04:38 |
TheNH813 | I want to fix that. | 04:39 |

TheNH813 | ubuntu-Haneul: You're welcome. | 04:39 |
TheNH813 | BRB getting water | 04:39 |
plop_its_ellie | it should have showed up in the update manager again | 04:40 |

ubuntu-Haneul | great. | 04:43 |
plop_its_ellie | that will install codecs, tho to give you a warning it will also install flash and java | 04:44 |
ubuntu-Haneul | woah, thank you. | 04:44 |
TheNH813 | plop_its_ellie: Hey thanks for that reminder. I forgot the meta-package ubuntu-restricted-extras existed. | 04:44 |
TheNH813 | I was going to pound out a list of ALL the packages. XD | 04:45 |
plop_its_ellie | yea theres a lot of packages in it, would be nice if there was a seperate codec pack without flash and java tho | 04:45 |
TheNH813 | Hm... it still thinks linux-headers-generic thermald aren't required. I don't like the looks of that. | 04:46 |
MisterGadfly | Does Ubuntu have a tool to make an Oracle Java .deb package? | 04:47 |
TheNH813 | MisterGadfly: That's a good question. | 04:47 |
MisterGadfly | Like on Debian | 04:47 |
TheNH813 | I'd say grab the source code to that tool and compile it on Ubuntu. Worth a shot. *shrugs* | 04:48 |
plop_its_ellie | you can compile it into a deb with make checkinstall | 04:49 |
ubuntu-Haneul | I thought if I type sudo apt-get install Chrome I would get Chrome, but it doesn't work at all. why? | 04:49 |

ubuntu-Haneul | chromium? | 04:49 |

TheNH813 | Select Ubuntu, obviously. :P | 04:51 |
tiox | If you still desire to use Firefox, for some strange reason you can always install Pipelight and use Pipelight's Flash, though this also requires the installation of wine-staging from their repository to make use of Pipelight, and it doesn't work for DRM-protected content from what I've seen. | 04:51 |
tiox | Or, there's another package you can install to use Freshwrapper + Chrome's Flash plugin as an NPAPI plugin. | 04:52 |
TheNH813 | Honestly, I never use flash anymore. | 04:52 |
TheNH813 | Well, almos tnever | 04:53 |
tiox | I believe it's in more recent version repos as browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash | 04:53 |
plop_its_ellie | hui dont recommend using pipelight | 04:53 |
plop_its_ellie | its not really needed these days anyways | 04:53 |
TheNH813 | HTML5 for the win. And flash 11.x is good enough for the occasional browser game. | 04:53 |
Backwards | TheNH813 are you trying to use multiple images on your box? | 04:53 |

TheNH813 | No. | 04:53 |

plop_its_ellie | tiox, its not worth it | 04:53 |
tiox | No, no it is not. At least it's not _just_ that/ | 04:53 |
plop_its_ellie | the security vulnerabilities | 04:54 |

Backwards | TheNH813 good point. | 04:58 |
greydawg | Unsupported locale setting en_IN.ISO8859-1 specified for daemon process group localhost:80. Consider using 'C.UTF-8' as fallback setting. | 04:58 |

drama | Backwards, give me a link for running headless | 05:01 |
TheNH813 | Definitely not on a server. SSH is goon enough for most purposes. | 05:01 |
TheNH813 | *good enough | 05:01 |
drama | Backwards, you install headless? | 05:01 |
tiox | Remember, know your audience; Ubuntu users not familiar with the command line may went to use Synaptic. (Also install apt-xapian-index) | 05:01 |
Backwards | Drama "headless" means simply No monitor, no keyboard, no mouse. | 05:02 |
drama | Backwards, no video card? | 05:02 |
TheNH813 | You know what? I'm gonna do something risky. I have backups, so I'm good. I'm gonna purge ALL kernels, including the running one, and completely reinstall them. | 05:02 |
Backwards | You don't need a video card with a server. | 05:02 |
TheNH813 | That should fix the quirkness in apt-get upgrade | 05:03 |

TheNH813 | LOL | 05:03 |
Ben64 | TheNH813: what issue are you experiencing | 05:03 |
TheNH813 | It refuses to update the kernel, and the package states are all wrong. | 05:04 |
TheNH813 | In fact, it dosen't even see the update. | 05:04 |
TheNH813 | Reinstall all kernels to reset apt is my best option. | 05:04 |
plop_its_ellie | if you are gonna wipe all the kernels are you just better off reinstalling | 05:04 |
Backwards | TheNH813 you didn't back up your system before you made changes. | 05:04 |
TheNH813 | I did | 05:05 |
TheNH813 | It's just a pain to reimage. | 05:05 |

john__ | 说句话 | 05:06 |
Backwards | I have lots of customers comeing to me and they never backed up anything. I have to do a data recovery and put the box back to the way it was. That is crazy. It takes days to do that. | 05:06 |
TheNH813 | I bet it does | 05:07 |
john__ | what | 05:07 |
Backwards | Data recovery is time consuming. | 05:07 |

plop_its_ellie | yep | 05:07 |
TheNH813 | Ah, I have a empty /boot folder now. | 05:07 |
hemangpatel | is anyone know good tool or application to check bandwidth usage of all machine of network to identify usage per machine ? | 05:07 |
greydawg | drama: thanks man | 05:08 |
greydawg | I'll go over it | 05:08 |
plop_its_ellie | hemangpatel, nettop and nethogs | 05:08 |
TheNH813 | That, and the stats of your router if ti logs them. | 05:08 |
plop_its_ellie | nettop monitors bandwith of a specific interface | 05:08 |
plop_its_ellie | nethogs does the same but its for seeing what is using the most bandwidth | 05:08 |
plop_its_ellie | they are both command line tools | 05:09 |
plop_its_ellie | very nice tho | 05:09 |
hemangpatel | plop_its_ellie, Can i check same for another machine in network ? I need list of machine who uses most bandwidth in network | 05:09 |
TheNH813 | Wooooooooooooot! I reinstalled the kernel only by only typing in sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic and it pulled the latest version! Success! | 05:10 |
Backwards | Plop thanks for that info. | 05:10 |
Backwards | Congratulations TheNH813. | 05:11 |
TheNH813 | Thanks. | 05:11 |
TheNH813 | Sometimes, you just gotta do something that could either fail horribly or work you perfectly. :D | 05:11 |
TheNH813 | Now, I gotta reinstall linux-headers-generic and linux-source-generic | 05:12 |
plop_its_ellie | hemangpatel, i dont think it does | 05:12 |
Backwards | I am proud of you TheNH813. | 05:13 |
plop_its_ellie | i would recommend using your router for that | 05:13 |
plop_its_ellie | or having something on the edge of your network | 05:13 |
TheNH813 | Backwards: Honestly, I'v never been able to fix a messed up package state in apt before. | 05:14 |
Backwards | Now TheNH813 you need to update and upgrade? | 05:14 |
plop_its_ellie | sudo apt-get install -f | 05:15 |
TheNH813 | That works, if a package is corrupt. | 05:15 |

Backwards | TheNH813 so what are you doing now to fix the problems? | 05:23 |
logesh | Hi | 05:23 |
TheNH813 | Backwards:They're gone, thankfully. :o | 05:23 |
Backwards | Glad to hear that. | 05:23 |
Backwards | What is your objective in the changes you are trying to make? | 05:24 |
logesh | When ubuntu releases amazon ami for south region | 05:24 |
logesh | When ubuntu going to release amazon ebs ami for south region | 05:24 |
Backwards | TheNH813 What is your objective in the changes you are trying to make? | 05:25 |
TheNH813 | I'm typing it. | 05:25 |
TheNH813 | Backwards: I was trying to fix a corrupt install of the kernel. I marked the previous version as hold and uninstalled the new one. A day later (today) I went to unhold it and install the new version again. It wouldn't see the update and that's where the trouble started. | 05:25 |
Backwards | That is frustrating. | 05:26 |
TheNH813 | A simply purge of all kernels and kernel drivers and headers and reinstall using the simple package name (linux-image-generic) which defaults to the newest version fixed it. | 05:26 |
jim | did ubuntu alter make-kpkg? | 05:27 |
Backwards | Well, as long as you have the common sense to fix the problem. That is all that counts. | 05:27 |
TheNH813 | Backwards: Yup. The only risk with that is if your PC turn off, there's no kernel on disk to boot. | 05:27 |
Backwards | I didn't know that you can purge the kernel. If the kernel is purged how can you load up the new kernel? | 05:28 |
TheNH813 | Install it before oyu reboot. | 05:28 |
TheNH813 | Else, RIP | 05:28 |
Backwards | That makes sense. | 05:28 |
plop_its_ellie | you can chroot into the system | 05:28 |
jim | well you can recover if you reboot... it would take a lot of work if you don't prepare before you reboot | 05:28 |
plop_its_ellie | then install the kernel in there | 05:28 |
TheNH813 | Well, there's that. I would just copy paste a kernel from the cloned installation on my backup. | 05:29 |
plop_its_ellie | you could just do a reinstall | 05:29 |
Backwards | Jim that is sensible. | 05:29 |
TheNH813 | jim: That is the sensible way to fix it if you don't have a restore enviroment. | 05:30 |
Backwards | Reinstall is the same as doing all of the research and work. | 05:30 |
TheNH813 | Yup, reinstall is too time consuming when I have like 15G of custom and regular software installed. | 05:30 |
jim | but it's of course much better if you install a kernel first... what are the symptoms? | 05:30 |
plop_its_ellie | what custom software? | 05:30 |
swift110-phone | https://swift110.wordpress.com/2016/06/27/stuck/ | 05:30 |
TheNH813 | plop_its_ellie Proprietary stuff and stuff I'v written. | 05:31 |
plop_its_ellie | oh, weird proprietary stuff... | 05:31 |
plop_its_ellie | you cant just reinstall it? | 05:31 |
plop_its_ellie | especially if you've written it, you cant just export data files from it, then reinstall and import the data files back | 05:32 |
TheNH813 | I could, but there's so much a reinstall isn't worth it. I sync to a backup HDD one per week. I could literally just swap disks. | 05:32 |
Backwards | The only problem with reinstallation is that if there is data on the disk, it must be backed up and that is more work. | 05:32 |
plop_its_ellie | you cant just script the installations? | 05:32 |
Backwards | Mirror the disk before the change. | 05:32 |
TheNH813 | I keep separate partitions for data and system | 05:32 |
TheNH813 | In fact, all the folders in my home directory are simlinks | 05:32 |
TheNH813 | Thus, easy reinstalls | 05:32 |
TheNH813 | if necessary | 05:33 |
plop_its_ellie | or better yet, have a script backup the data files, then have another script that installs all of them then restores the data | 05:33 |
TheNH813 | or reiimaging | 05:33 |
plop_its_ellie | oh there you go, just reinstall the base system | 05:33 |
Backwards | Simply put another hard drive on your box and mirror it everytime you make changes. That fixes everything. | 05:33 |
TheNH813 | I also backup my data, the archaic way. cp -rvn /media/Home/Myname_Data/* /media/Backupdrive | 05:34 |
TheNH813 | And all my docs and music also go to mega using the megasync plugin for nautilus. | 05:34 |
plop_its_ellie | TheNH813, btw when you write proprietary custom software can you use standard data formats, make it easy to get data in and out | 05:34 |
plop_its_ellie | sorry to be bitter about it, its just at work its always a pain in the neck when people come in and they have some weird proprietary software | 05:35 |
TheNH813 | plop_its_elite: Yes. I'm too lazy for SQL so I usually use CSV. | 05:35 |
TheNH813 | And there's comments at the top of the file deatiling what each row does. | 05:36 |
plop_its_ellie | especially when there are open source equivilents of what they are doing but they are too stubborn to switch... | 05:36 |
TheNH813 | Yup. | 05:36 |
Backwards | What is your Disk Space on your hard drive TheNH813? | 05:36 |
TheNH813 | 30G for the OS, 500 for Data. | 05:37 |
TheNH813 | And anothe drive for more stuff like videos and music I'v transferred. | 05:37 |
Backwards | 30 Gig is small. | 05:37 |
Backwards | My disk space is Terabytes. | 05:37 |
Ben64 | 30 is fine for OS | 05:38 |
Backwards | If you purchase a Terabyte HD, you can mirror your kernel on another partition on your HD. | 05:38 |
TheNH813 | As for my databases, I take special care to make sure the program spaces data evenly with tabs inside the CSV, so it looks fine even in a text editor. Most of my custom software is for automation, home built electronics controlled with the parallel port, radio stuff and custom applications like data logging and pentesting stuff. | 05:39 |
TheNH813 | I have a massive range of interests, and am a avid experimenter, with both software and hardware. | 05:39 |
Backwards | TheNH813 you are a Radio Electronics person? | 05:40 |
TheNH813 | Kindof. I'v been interested in radio for a while but takes a large interest in it int he past year or so. | 05:40 |
TheNH813 | I want to get a amateur radio license as well. | 05:40 |
Backwards | I have Five Masters Degrees in Engineering. | 05:40 |
TheNH813 | Woah, really? | 05:41 |
TheNH813 | That's epic. | 05:41 |
Backwards | I have my FCC G.R.O.L | 05:41 |

Backwards | I am almost 60 years old. | 05:41 |
redengin | ah, that makes more sense then | 05:42 |

plop_its_ellie | somsip, yea i know, but eventually the channel kinda fades and if someone needs help noone will really be around as in the case with the -pt and -br channels | 05:50 |

hmir | Hey guys. I have xubuntu 14.10. I've have heard that upgrading 14.10 to 16.04 is a huge hassle, and that I may have to upgrade first to 15.04 and then from 15.04 to 16.04. Is this accurage? | 05:55 |
hmir | I would prefer a clean insstall, but the cdrom drive on my laptop is faulty, and the laptop BIOS is old, does not support booting from USB. So, I would prefer to upgrade the release from within the OS. Any advice/recommendation? | 05:55 |
jim | hmir, can you boot a usb stick? | 05:55 |
Ben64 | hmir: 14.10 -> 15.04 -> 15.10 -> 16.04 | 05:55 |
jim | oh, you just said probably no | 05:56 |
somsip | hmir: it's not a huge hassle as such, but any upgrade can be problematic. Clean install is (arguably) always better. | 05:56 |
Ben64 | hmir: theres a little cd you can boot (forget the name) that lets you boot from usb | 05:56 |

theptr | hi yesterday i was asking here about how to install an old version of qtcreator on ubuntu 16.04 64bit | 06:09 |
theptr | someone told me to compile it from source | 06:09 |
theptr | Now thats finished but now i have a bunch of files and dont know how to install this | 06:10 |
somsip | theptr: you would potentially have an easily time installing an older version of ubuntu (that has the version of qtcreator you want) in a VM | 06:11 |
somsip | *easier | 06:11 |
lotuspsychje | theptr: or file a new !bug on the current version of qtcreator, for the issue you experience | 06:12 |
theptr | somsip, yes i know but the problem is that i have to get it to run on the 16.04 i have no other option (work you know) | 06:12 |
plop_its_ellie | couldnt he just search on packages.ubuntu.com for an older version of qt creator from an older repo | 06:13 |
plop_its_ellie | from lets say trusty | 06:13 |
plop_its_ellie | kinda a dirty solution tho | 06:14 |
lotuspsychje | plop_its_ellie: its recommended not to mix package versions | 06:14 |
Ben64 | no thats how to break stuff | 06:14 |
somsip | theptr: fair enough. There are loads of PPAs for qt - have you browsed to see if anything can solve your issue? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=qtcreator | 06:14 |
theptr | plop_its_ellie, yes been trying that also but the oldest version i could found was 2.6.0 and i need 2.5.2 package | 06:15 |
lotuspsychje | theptr: can you explain whats going wrong with qtcreator on 16.04, that you need an old version? | 06:15 |
theptr | lotuspsychje, not fully because the project i have to work on is confidential (work) | 06:16 |
theptr | lotuspsychje, the program i have to get to work is designed to work with the old version was told me (something for automotive ^^ ) | 06:16 |
hmir | jim, Ben64, plop_its_ellie, hateball: Like I've mentioned, I cannot boot from USB because this old laptop does not support booting from usb, and the cdrtom drive doesn't work. | 06:17 |
lotuspsychje | theptr: i hope you understand older versions can hold security risks | 06:17 |
theptr | lotuspsychje, but they wanted me to get it work on an pine64 because of it's small size. | 06:17 |
hmir | I need to upgrade from inside the OS. | 06:17 |
theptr | lotuspsychje, yeah i know but if i tell it here it's like it worked on ubuntu 12.04 back in the days so it has to work on 16.04 | 06:18 |
hateball | hmir: The link I gave you provides you info how to do that | 06:19 |
hateball | hmir: You need a working internet connection tho | 06:19 |
lotuspsychje | !pinning | theptr perhaps try this method? | 06:19 |
ubottu | theptr perhaps try this method?: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 06:19 |
theptr | lotuspsychje, okay going to give that i try . thanks for your time | 06:20 |

hmir | hateball: Can you tell me the difference between "apt-get dist-upgrade" and "do-release-upgrade"? | 06:39 |
hmir | I need both commands, one after the other, but I'm curious what the difference is and why in that order? | 06:40 |
brushdemon | pavlushka: ifconfig <interface> {up|down} | 06:40 |
hateball | hmir: dist-upgrade upgrades the current release fully. do-release-upgrade moves you to next version of ubuntu | 06:41 |
glass_ | i made a tool to help people learn about all the commands needed i could think of off the top of my head for linux, several diff distros, pentesting, - 499 different commands - please check it out and give me feedback - https://github.com/LubuntuFu/fishfry | 06:41 |
pavlushka | brushdemon: duh, thanks | 06:41 |
brushdemon | no problem pavlushka | 06:42 |
hmir | thanks, hateball! | 06:43 |
brushdemon | not bad glass_, I'll save a copy if I need it | 06:43 |
brushdemon | there's some stuff on there I didn't know about! | 06:44 |
glass_ | thanks - its my first ever type making something - but i wanted to give back to the community | 06:44 |

glass_ | i needed something for my resume think that will look good on it? | 06:44 |
brushdemon | I'm not too sure, I couldn't get into tech so I gave up and work in another industry now | 06:46 |
glass_ | me too i am a industrial pipefitter | 06:46 |

glass_ | been self teaching my way into sec and more specificly ICS security but i just recently started landing interviews and contract jobs | 06:47 |
hateball | notadeveloper: It is not | 06:48 |

notadeveloper | ok | 06:48 |
glass_ | thanks man | 06:49 |
theptr | glass_, good job | 06:50 |
glass_ | thanks sir | 06:50 |
glass_ | you guys are honestly making my night i have worked for about a week on this and was unsure about releasing it as i didnt think it would be helpful | 06:50 |
hateball | notadeveloper: The only way you could potentially use it would be with PCI passthrough to a VM. But you can't use both cards for the same running instance of Ubuntu | 06:50 |
=== csyogi1 is now known as csyogi | ||
notadeveloper | ok | 06:51 |
plop_its_ellie | someone got pci passthrough working??? | 06:53 |
theptr | glass_, also i couldn't get into the IT , so i started as a software tester and worked my way up | 06:53 |
plop_its_ellie | last time i tried to do that I got some error about "tainted kernel" | 06:53 |
plop_its_ellie | i didnt go any further cuz my whole system would freeze and lock up | 06:54 |

Shogoot | Hi all, im a bit frustradet trying to config a static ip on 16.04. I got another server running centos 6.4 with same gateway and netmask and its working fine im using /etc/network/interfaces on 16.04 iface ens32 inet static with address netmask gateway and dns.nameserver 8.8.8.8. Im unable to ping anything thats not on my own network. Is there a sepsific log for networking in /etc? | 06:58 |

=== cpaelzer_ is now known as cpaelzer | ||
plop_its_ellie | ddd333, you mean like a recovery image? | 06:59 |
ddd333 | plop_its_ellie: yes, or like a recovery USB, nothing fancy. please guide me | 06:59 |
plop_its_ellie | ddd333, well there is a peice of software called clonezilla you can use to make an image of your installation | 06:59 |
plop_its_ellie | http://clonezilla.org/ | 07:00 |
ddd333 | i guess it's not common for ubuntu not to restart | 07:00 |
ddd333 | plop_its_ellie: ty | 07:00 |
plop_its_ellie | ddd333, ubuntu is pretty solid so you will rarely have to restart, also for clonezilla you must make a bootable usb/cd with it | 07:01 |
plop_its_ellie | in order to boot it and proceed with the cloning pocess | 07:01 |
ddd333 | plop_its_ellie: yeah, maybe i'm stil traumatized from the old windows days | 07:01 |
plop_its_ellie | dont worry most of those windows issues dont exsist in ubuntu or linux in general :) | 07:02 |
ddd333 | plop_its_ellie: :PPP | 07:03 |
Dandels | ddd333, if your installation breaks you can stick in any generic linux live session media (such as the ubuntu installer) and fix stuff from the live session | 07:04 |
ddd333 | Dandels: thank you | 07:05 |
Dandels | The same trick can be used to access windows files if the computer doesn't boot (or is password protected) | 07:05 |
Dandels | Obviously you can't bypass encryption, though | 07:05 |

Shogoot | Is there a speisifc log for network? in /var/log? | 07:09 |
hateball | Shogoot: what do you mean by "network" | 07:10 |
Dandels | Shogoot, I think it should all be in journalctl. | 07:10 |
ddd333 | quick question: this guy is so sarcastic with me. that's the only way he talks to me. do i really annoy him and he hates me? what do you think? | 07:10 |
Shogoot | hateball, Dandels - Like in seeing error when i try to ping something outside my own network. I cant get a frikking static ip to work. | 07:11 |
hateball | Shogoot: There's no logs of network traffic | 07:11 |
hateball | Shogoot: You'll want to use something like wireshark for that | 07:11 |
Shogoot | hateball, ah, well tahts not what i need i think. I got anotehr server with centos 6.4 with identical setup and this 16.04 server wont ping any outside ip. I can from my ubuntu 16.04 ping my centos, but nothing on the "intenret" both have smae dns-servername 8.8.8.8 | 07:13 |
hateball | Shogoot: and what does your routing look like? | 07:14 |
Shogoot | ah. i dont know. what was the command again? | 07:14 |
Shogoot | nroute? | 07:15 |
hateball | Shogoot: "route" | 07:15 |
Anonymes | Hi | 07:15 |
Shogoot | hateball, that is much empty. | 07:15 |
Shogoot | wtf :) | 07:15 |
hateball | you'll probably want to define a gateway if you expect your traffic to go anywhere | 07:16 |
Shogoot | oh no ther eit throwed a output. | 07:16 |
Shogoot | the gateway is correct and same as in centos 6.4 | 07:17 |

temhaa | hello | 07:32 |
temhaa | I want to ask about file permissions | 07:33 |
temhaa | I have magento2 directory. And I created file as root named hasret2 under magent2 directory. You can see permission in here: http://imgur.com/8qcUwO3 . | 07:33 |
temhaa | When I remove as normal user(named hasret user) I can't delete hasret2 file because of not allowed. But When I remove as www-data user I can remove that. Why? | 07:33 |
temhaa | What is difference to remove between normal user and www-data user | 07:33 |
temhaa | If I can't remove normal user so I am not able to remove as www-data, right? | 07:33 |

robattila256 | Hey when installing grub, do I install it to /dev/sda or /dev/sda1 (boot partition?) | 07:42 |
ducasse | robattila256: uefi or legacy? | 07:42 |
robattila256 | uefi | 07:42 |
robattila256 | its asking me which to highlight and install grub to | 07:42 |
ducasse | robattila256: then install grub to the efi partition. | 07:43 |
robattila256 | i dont know what that means | 07:43 |
ducasse | robattila256: you should have an 'efi system partition' in your list of partitions, to be mounted at /boot/efi | 07:43 |
robattila256 | i just created /boot partition | 07:44 |
robattila256 | im gonna install it on that and hope it works | 07:44 |
ducasse | robattila256: you will need /boot/efi too, and it has to be fat32. | 07:44 |
plop_its_ellie | isnt the efi partition the boot parttion? | 07:45 |
robattila256 | well when I was installing ubuntu i created a 300mb ext4 /boot mount point | 07:45 |
robattila256 | cause thats the option it gave me | 07:45 |
robattila256 | and i pressed continue with uefi installation | 07:45 |
tim241 | how to fix this?: http://pastebin.com/pLbZNXV0 | 07:45 |
robattila256 | imma try it and see if it works brb | 07:45 |
plop_its_ellie | for efi it needs to be fat32 | 07:45 |
ducasse | plop_its_ellie: no, they are two different things. | 07:45 |
plop_its_ellie | ducasse, i just opened gparted, it looks like ubuntu makes 2 seperate partitions for both | 07:46 |
plop_its_ellie | hmmmm, when i install arch i normally just use /boot as the efi partition | 07:46 |
ducasse | tim241: 'apt-get dist-upgrade' | 07:47 |
ducasse | plop_its_ellie: arch is not ubuntu :) arch also stores kernels etc in the efi partition afaik, ubuntu doesn't. | 07:48 |
plop_its_ellie | ducasse, oh, i see. I assumed they were the same as far as that goes | 07:49 |
robattila256 | yay i got it working | 07:50 |
robattila256 | the /boot/efi was already created | 07:50 |
robattila256 | just had to install grub to /boot and thats it wasnt even fat32 just ext4 | 07:51 |
plop_its_ellie | yea since the /boot /efi are seperate then it should be fine | 07:51 |
tim241 | ducasse, how long does that take? | 07:52 |
tim241 | I am doing it now | 07:52 |
tim241 | but it takes LONG | 07:52 |
ducasse | tim241: depends on the machine and network connection. | 07:53 |
tim241 | k | 07:53 |
tim241 | it is finally done | 07:54 |

ikonia | centric: let me guess, vbox from the external PPA | 08:44 |
ikonia | rather than the one ubuntu provides | 08:44 |
Celphish | Or is there a better option for connecting to Exchange? I need mail, contacts and calendar to be synced | 08:44 |

Dandels | presumably start/enable a service? | 08:48 |
neredsenvy | trying to configure openVPN trying to start the server the command is sudo systemctl start openvpn@server | 08:48 |

neredsenvy | yes | 08:48 |
ikonia | neredsenvy: where are you getting this command from ? | 08:48 |
ikonia | neredsenvy: as it sounds like thats for another distro/version | 08:48 |
Dandels | Celphish, there's smtps. I'm just looking at my mutt config and making guesses here, though | 08:48 |
Celphish | oh, nice, there is a channel on another irc-network, I'm going there :D | 08:49 |

Lachezar | Hey all. Trying to add a SOCKS server to my Ubuntu Server box, but after installing the package I can see no new services. How come? | 08:54 |
sergioad | i asked that question because I have an XBOX controller but Guacamelee! steamworld dig and some other games does not works with Xpad but with xboxdrv | 08:54 |
hateball | sergioad: is xboxdrv a service? | 08:56 |
sergioad | no as far I know, it is a driver and could be executed with a xboxdrv --silent --mimic-xpad? hateball | 08:57 |
abhishek__ | hateball, still don't get someone has commented it doesn't work. I suspect it won't work on my system either. | 08:57 |
hateball | abhishek__: Feel free to not follow the instructions given then | 08:58 |
ducasse | abhishek__: don't suspect - check! | 08:58 |
hateball | sergioad: do you run that command as a regular user? just make a startup script that runs it? | 08:58 |
sergioad | I need to run it as root with sudo hateball | 08:59 |
kilbith | i see an 'upstart' package on Xenial, am i right to assume upstart/systemd co-exist on the same system ? | 09:02 |
hateball | sergioad: you can make it quick and dirty and just drop it in either /etc/rc.local or @reboot in /etc/crontab | 09:02 |
sergioad | thank you very much hateball | 09:03 |
justxux | kilbith, When I boot my PC in grub - advanced section, there is upstart kernel and systemd kernel | 09:04 |
kilbith | i guess there's an alternative in case if one of the init systems fails | 09:05 |

humanoid1 | Hi Anyone know how to find the remote desktop preferences in Mate. It's hiding | 09:40 |
ducasse | ChengLong: since it is mint that is a derivative of ubuntu, maybe you should ask them what they have changed? | 09:41 |
ChengLong | I'm trying to get a a Microsoft Xbox 360 gamepad to work in Ubuntu. Just thinkng that Linux Mint might be able to auto-detect it as I 've had no luck with Ubuntu. | 09:44 |
Sandy | Hi, I have question. | 09:44 |
hateball | ChengLong: I think you may need to install xboxdrv, but I don't use that controller myself so I am not 100% | 09:45 |
ChengLong | I checked in Syanptic and xbox360drv is already installed uner my Xubuntu install so thx anyway gateball | 09:47 |
kilbith | why there's no burning software installed by default on ubuntu ? | 09:47 |
ChengLong | I'll reinstall it just in case anyway | 09:47 |
ikonia | pretty sure the library for burning is there by default | 09:47 |
ikonia | you just select the interface you want | 09:47 |
kilbith | ikonia, if you mean 'dvd+rw-tools', no it ain't installed by default | 09:48 |
Sandy | when we get package source by "apt-get source pkgname", how do I identify which branch, commit number the source is from.

Eldsomon | b100s: I think there's a hotkey for that. Don't remember it, but you can look it up in the Settings (or define your own there). Not using Unity right now, but maybe its also on the hotkey iverview you get when pressing the meta key. | 11:14 |

ikonia | chickahoona: what do you mean no impact | 12:01 |
ikonia | how you create the file doesn't matter as long as it's valid | 12:01 |
ikonia | visudo has an automatic lint component in it | 12:01 |
chickahoona | ikonia I have a playbook that creates the file | 12:02 |
ikonia | yes, I guessed that when you said "I'm using ansible to update it" | 12:02 |
chickahoona | :D | 12:03 |
ikonia | please re-read what I actually said | 12:03 |
chickahoona | thats my command: copy: src=sudoers.d_{{ ansible_os_family }} dest=/etc/sudoers.d/nagios owner=root group=root mode=0440 validate='visudo -cf %s' | 12:03 |

kulelu88 | cp: cannot stat ‘/var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb’: No such file or directory | 12:03 |
ikonia | again......re-read what I actually said | 12:03 |
ikonia | kulelu88: it means there is no such file that matches *.deb | 12:04 |
chickahoona | The content of my file is: "nagios ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_firewall" | 12:04 |
ikonia | chickahoona: again.....re-read what I said | 12:04 |
kulelu88 | ikonia: but when I specify the exact filename of a single file, it copies it. How do I use *.deb to copy all .deb files? | 12:04 |
chickahoona | so this command should not ask me for a password: "sudo -u nagios -H /usr/bin/sudo /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_firewall" | 12:04 |

kulelu88 | EriC^^: yes I am | 12:05 |
ikonia | chickahoona: sudo -u nagios /usr/bin/sudo | 12:05 |
ikonia | chickahoona: you're using sudo to execute sudo | 12:05 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: what does "echo /*" return? | 12:06 |
chickahoona | hae? ok again. if I create my "/etc/sudoers.d/nagios" file on the command line i can execute "sudo -u nagios -H /usr/bin/sudo /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_firewall" without password | 12:07 |
kulelu88 | sudo echo of the path returns: /var/cache/apt/archives/* ... sudo echo of *.deb returns: /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb | 12:07 |
kulelu88 | EriC^^: ^^ | 12:07 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: no, just "echo /*" | 12:08 |
EriC^^ | it should return /bin /dev etc | 12:08 |
chickahoona | If I create "/etc/sudoers.d/nagios" with ansible I cannot execute "sudo -u nagios -H /usr/bin/sudo /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_firewall" without password | 12:08 |
chickahoona | how do you explain that? | 12:08 |
ikonia | chickahoona: first of all why are you executing sudo 2 times | 12:08 |
ikonia | chickahoona: sudo -u nagios /usr/bin/sudo | 12:08 |
ikonia | that dosn't make sense | 12:09 |
chickahoona | ... | 12:09 |
chickahoona | first sudo executes under my user | 12:09 |
chickahoona | second sudo is part of the command that the "nagios" user executes | 12:09 |
ikonia | chickahoona: right, so you're calling sudo to call sudo | 12:09 |
kulelu88 | sorry EriC^^ . this is what it returns (partial output): /bin /boot /cdrom /dev /etc | 12:09 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: ok, so globbing is working | 12:09 |
chickahoona | yes I try to call "sudo ..." as user nagios | 12:09 |
ikonia | chickahoona: the otherthing is check the validity of the file you're dropping in with ansible, as I've said visudo has a solid lint in it | 12:09 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: type ls -l /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb | 12:10 |
kulelu88 | EriC^^: ls: cannot access /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb: No such file or directory | 12:11 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: ok, and ls -l /var/cache/apt/archives | head | 12:12 |
chickahoona | "visudo -cf /etc/sudoers.d/nagios" returns "/etc/sudoers.d/nagios: parsed OK" | 12:12 |
chickahoona | so all seems fine | 12:12 |
chickahoona | lint is not the problem | 12:12 |

chickahoona | is ansible "bypassing" the file creation process somwhow, so the "service" monitoring the changes doesnt see that new file? | 12:14 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: that's pretty odd | 12:14 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: as your normal user are you able to type ls -l /var/cache/apt/archives ? | 12:15 |

versuchsanstalt | I have just installed 16.04 LTS amd64 with automatic partitioning. The install resides on an ssd. I'd like to move the swap to the hard drive that's also in the box. Could somebody please point me to a guide or a keyword what to read? thank you | 12:20 |

Extreme21355 | EriC^^: is it a bot ? | 12:25 |
Extreme21355 | oh hehe | 12:25 |
Extreme21355 | so he can't unban that person? | 12:25 |
Extreme21355 | or 'it' | 12:25 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: use bash inside of sudo maybe so the globbing can be done | 12:26 |
kulelu88 | versuchsanstalt: is there any reason you want the swap on the HDD? | 12:26 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: type sudo -i and then run the command | 12:26 |
versuchsanstalt | kulelu88: the usual "not too many rw cycles, please" voodoo prejudice, to be fair. | 12:26 |
EriC^^ | Extreme21355: no, he probably has a timer, /join #ubuntu-ops for unbans and stuff like that | 12:26 |
versuchsanstalt | kulelu88: but I am actually thinking about leaving it on the ssd. what do you think? | 12:27 |

versuchsanstalt | kulelu88: there's 8gb of ram on that machine, so I maybe shouldn't care about it at all | 12:27 |

alias_neo | Can anybody point me at how to stop my screens flickering when I lock my screen on 16.04 gnome? I have a laptop with 2 external screens, the screens go into power save (due to the screen blanking) when I lock my computer, but as soon as they enter power save, they cause the laptop screen to flicker back on, which wakes them again, and it cycles on and off endlessly. | 12:28 |
versuchsanstalt | kulelu88: yeah. I'm browsing swap faqs from askubuntu.com atm. but a guide to move the swap partition would be extremely handy... | 12:29 |
Extreme21355 | EriC^^: I've asked at the ops channel, that guy has been unbanned already | 12:29 |
EriC^^ | Extreme21355: ok, cool | 12:30 |
kulelu88 | EriC^^: seems like it worked under sudo -i | 12:30 |
EriC^^ | kulelu88: great | 12:30 |
hateball | versuchsanstalt: not much to it. partition a drive, format some of it as swap, put it in /etc/fstab | 12:32 |
versuchsanstalt | hateball: ok, I haven't done the fstab bit only, let's see. | 12:32 |
versuchsanstalt | thank you both hateball and kulelu88 | 12:33 |
Heebie | versuchsanstalt: If you don't have partitions available, you can create swap on a loopback device that uses a file on a disk. | 12:33 |
versuchsanstalt | Heebie: oh no, it's already partitioned, thank you | 12:33 |

Eburitus | i'm having difficulties with kernel update. it says that /boot/ is too full even after i moved some of the old kernels to trash bin. could it be so that thras bin takes room from /boot or what is the thing? | 13:25 |

=== zero is now known as Guest85754 | ||

Eburitus | Extreme21355: i'm using virtual computer. | 13:30 |
Extreme21355 | Eburitus: so your problem is that you can't boot from a stick? u can always attach a dvd to it? | 13:31 |
Extreme21355 | Eburitus: a virtual dvd linked to your local disk | 13:31 |
Eburitus | Extreme21355: that could work but i would like to make that room to partition with removing old kernels | 13:32 |
ducasse | Eburitus: if you just move the files to trash they will still take up place on the same filesystem, afaicr. | 13:32 |
Eburitus | Extreme21355: like i thought i did | 13:32 |
ducasse | s/place/space/ | 13:32 |
Extreme21355 | Eburitus: what's your currently free disk space of your boot partition if I may ask? | 13:33 |

Extreme21355 | Eburitus: did you solve your problem? | 13:35 |

Khanthulhu_ | Hello. I need some help. I installed Ubuntu on my Acer Aspire E 15 and then used efibootmgr to try to change the order. I didn't see Ubuntu on there, but there was an Unknown device that it said it was currently loaded under so I chose that. Since then I can't get the boot options menu to give me Ubuntu as an option. I've tried boot repair but it didn't seem to do anything. Secure boot is off. | 13:44 |

CustosL1men | hi | 13:56 |
CustosL1men | does ubuntu distro version updates still break ? | 13:57 |
guest | begs the question there really. | 13:57 |
guest | What's the problem you're seeing CustosL1men ? They were never broken. | 13:57 |
CustosL1men | guest - well - maybe not for everybody - but for me | 13:58 |
CustosL1men | I'm more asking if there are complaints about them often - and if people use them often | 13:58 |
auronandace|work | CustosL1men: if you stick to what is in the default repos then the upgrades go smoothly | 13:59 |
=== lilstevie_ is now known as lilstevie | ||
auronandace|work | CustosL1men: it tends to go badly when people add software outside of the default repos | 14:00 |
Khanthulhu_ | Can someone help me with getting Ubuntu to show up on my boot menu? | 14:00 |
CustosL1men | auronandace, last time for me mmap was broken or something | 14:00 |
justxux | CustosL1men, I was testing Windows 10 on this very laptop and Ubuntu is freaking stable,where Windows hang up on me, and was so slow. So my advice stick to what works for you now,then with a point release you can install new OS. That's the best practice for newbies. | 14:01 |
CustosL1men | justxux, gentoo does not work for my mom :/ | 14:02 |
CustosL1men | cos I dont have time to update - but only reason I moved her to gentoo is cos updates there break less often | 14:03 |
CustosL1men | but yeah - its too much hassle to update it - so I just dont do it | 14:03 |
CustosL1men | but I want something which can keep itself up to date without manual intervention | 14:03 |
justxux | CustosL1men, Why Gentoo lol. Install Ubuntu or Ubuntu Mate (for more traditional interface) or Linux Mint 18 Cinnamon and see what works best. | 14:04 |
CustosL1men | justxux, cos like I said - gentoo updates don't break | 14:04 |
CustosL1men | or atleast - not as bad as the ubuntu updates was breaking for me before I switched to gentoo | 14:04 |
auronandace|work | CustosL1men: give her an LTS release and then set updates to automatically install, you'll only need to upgrade it once every 2 years (or 4 years if you skip one LTS release) | 14:05 |
CustosL1men | auronandace|work, yeah - is what I am thinking | 14:05 |
CustosL1men | auronandace|work, but LTS -> LTS upgrades can also be automatic right ? | 14:05 |
justxux | Sorry I think I'm in parallel world,cause lol Gentoo not breaking but Ubuntu yes. I'm out. | 14:05 |
CustosL1men | or well - its not like someone has to do it manually ? | 14:06 |
CustosL1men | justxux, I have not had issues with gentoo upgrades ... but have had with ubuntu | 14:06 |
CustosL1men | I have upgraded gentoo systems with no problem after not upgrading for 2+ years ... sure was a bit of effort - but no breakage | 14:06 |

Khanthulhu | Eric^^: I did it but it didn't seem to change anything | 14:42 |
EriC^^ | Khanthulhu: you tried rebooting? | 14:43 |
EriC^^ | it should remove the "*" next to the boot order | 14:43 |
EriC^^ | i mean boot number | 14:43 |
Khanthulhu | Oh, yes | 14:43 |

tgm4883 | lerner: use archive mounter | 15:45 |
tgm4883 | lerner: heh, just looked at the original question. Why won't it open it? | 15:46 |
lerner | tgm4883, archive mounter does nothing | 15:46 |
lerner | tgm4883, if I right click to extract in the current directory, I get: No suitable archive manager found. | 15:47 |

tgm4883 | fronco: well looking back at what you were told, I'd use pulse audio to create a stream of both sides of the conversation, then use audacity to record it | 15:53 |
fronco | tgm4883 ; what tools do i need besides audacity ?? and how to do that ? | 15:54 |
TheSilentLink | fronco: pulse audio is installed by defualt | 15:54 |

fronco | i cant find pulse audio ? | 15:56 |
fronco | tgm4883 ; i cant find pulse audio ? | 15:57 |
tgm4883 | !pulseaudio | 15:57 |
ubottu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 15:57 |
TheSilentLink | !ESD | 15:57 |
ubottu | esd is the enlightened sound daemon. It is deprecated, use !pulseaudio instead. | 15:57 |
joelio | there's JACK too, for more esoteric audio needs </throwing 2p in> | 15:58 |

tgm4883 | it's probably not necessary to name all of the old sound systems... | 16:00 |
TheSilentLink | lol true just got curious! | 16:00 |
joelio | jack isn't old | 16:01 |
joelio | it's a connection kit for low latency audio, you can use it with pulse | 16:02 |

joelio | tgm4883: thanks, duly noted. | 16:06 |
* joelio opens up Jack sink in Pulse | 16:06 | |
joelio | for merging two streams, it's pretty cool... which is exactly that the OP was asking | 16:08 |
joelio | how do you do that in Pulse tgm4883 ? | 16:08 |
joelio | Definitely one area that linux has always been less than good in... Audio. The amount of time spent over the years debugging or trying to make audio pipelines work doesn't bear thinking about. Thankfully it is better than it used to be. If you're just using your onboard soundcard for standard stuff, then yea, alrught.. but for doing anything production related its been less than easy | 16:13 |
joelio | plus throw in all the outboard hardware and lack of linux support and the picture gets even murkier | 16:14 |
tgm4883 | joelio: wouldn't you just connect a track in audacity to the monitor output in pulseaudio, and another track to your mic (I'm assuming you can't hear yourself when talking in google voice) | 16:14 |
joelio | your mic is not at line level | 16:15 |
joelio | you mean line in? | 16:15 |
tgm4883 | no? | 16:15 |
joelio | or right, I see, record the conversation from the mic, yea I guess that's one way to do it.. bit of a ahack | 16:16 |
tgm4883 | joelio: it's a hack to record both lines separately in audacity? | 16:16 |
tgm4883 | well, on separate tracks | 16:17 |
joelio | tgm4883: to me, yea.. it works in that one use case | 16:18 |
romboclat | good evening dear community ^^ I don't came up to se live facebook mentions streaming.. did I need a plug in or something else? thank you | 16:18 |

Tin_man | tgm4883, could you put the command in the inittab file? | 16:35 |
tgm4883 | Tin_man: I don't see why he doesn't just put the command in cron | 16:36 |
Tin_man | i've never wrote a script.. | 16:36 |
tgm4883 | in crontab, you can tell it exactly when to run | 16:36 |
tgm4883 | so you just do 'shutdown -h now' | 16:36 |

minimec | varaindemian: lspci and search for your wireless card (guessing that you have wifi problems). Then search teh net for 'Ubuntu 16.04 + YOURCARD + wifi problems' There is no system log for a lost wifi connection. | 17:11 |
varaindemian | minimec: it's a desktop pc | 17:12 |
varaindemian | cable connected | 17:12 |
minimec | varaindemian: Oh... Strange. Well also try 'lspci' to get your LAN/ethernet card and search for configuration options. | 17:13 |

User123 | Hey, guys. Installed Ubuntu Server 16.04 on old Dell XPS Laptop. Now, I can only boot when I go to recovery and then select Continue Normal boot. If I just boot normally, I either get a blank screen or hang on /dev/sda1 clean... Any ideas on how to fix this? | 17:16 |
tgm4883 | Howto: what is your dhcp server? A home router? | 17:16 |
varaindemian | minimec: still doesn;t work | 17:17 |
varaindemian | minimec: this is the problem after, x period of time it get lost | 17:18 |
minimec | varaindemian: I would do that 'lspci' thing and search the net for problems with your hardware. Most drivers have options that you can permanently set in /etc/modprobe.d/YOURCARD.conf ... | 17:18 |
Howto | A configured one on virtual machine and need to start it on internal network (host only adapter) | 17:18 |
Howto | *I config.. | 17:18 |
varaindemian | minimec: rtl8101/2/6e pci express fast/gigabit ethernet controller (rev 05) | 17:19 |
varaindemian | this is it. Nothng related to capble connected devices | 17:19 |
Howto | So just need to know how to assign one from virtual box to host machine (Ubuntu) | 17:20 |
Howto | Do you get my question now? | 17:20 |
nacc | Howto: you want your VM to provide an IP to your host via DHCP? | 17:21 |
nacc | varaindemian: any messages in dmesg when it happens? does your device report there is still link when it happens (`ip link`, `ethtool`) | 17:22 |
Howto | Ya nacc | 17:22 |
nacc | Howto: that's a very strange configuration (IMO), would your host not have an IP then unless your guest was up? How is your guest getting its network traffic routed? Or do you just want your host and guest to talk to each other (and neither to have outbound connectivity)? | 17:25 |
varaindemian | nacc: enp3s0: link is not ready; link down; link down; link is not ready; link becomes ready | 17:25 |
minimec | varaindemian: I see that that card was not well supported in 2014. But the offered solution on askubuntu for example seem outdated. There is an realtek drivers page, but the available drivers are for older kernels. | 17:26 |
ddd333 | will 16.04 come with natural scrolling aka reverse scrolling? app "natural scrolling" not working on 14.04 but does in 12.04. Natural scrolling is so important to me, and very difficult to find a tweak | 17:26 |
nacc | varaindemian: sorry, did you just grep that out of dmesg? please don't do that, it makes it impossible to help. Use pastebin and provide full logs. | 17:26 |
Howto | I am currently working on it to get it work on internal network using host only adapter and if it works then I know how to use it for outbound connection | 17:27 |
varaindemian | !paste | 17:27 |
ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 17:27 |

ubottu | pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 17:27 |
nacc | Howto: it'd be very specific to your configuration, but your guest would only be able to provide IPs to the bridge device in the host (if using bridging). Your configuration doesn't make any sense to me... | 17:29 |
ddd333 | will 16.04 come with Mouse natural scrolling aka reverse scrolling? app "natural scrolling" not working on 14.04 but does in 12.04. Natural scrolling is so important to me, and very difficult to find a tweak | 17:30 |
tgm4883 | ddd333: works here for me on 16.04 | 17:33 |
tgm4883 | ddd333: well, with a touchpad | 17:34 |
tgm4883 | not with my mouse | 17:34 |

Howto | Host only adapter of vm is connected with interface vboxnet0. Vboxnet0 connects with host machine and ip I get is that I manually configured from Preferences - > Network in virtual box. So there has been a connection established. Now here comes the the question to use dhcp in that | 17:35 |
ddd333 | tgm4883: yeah touchpach you can config even with dconf app- i need it for mouse. i can't go back to traditional scrolling, which is unnatural (debatable still) | 17:35 |
Howto | Dhcp server in network from vm to ubuntu | 17:36 |
nacc | varaindemian: that paste doesn't mention any networking issues; but i thnk it was also truncated | 17:36 |
tgm4883 | ddd333: it's just brain wiring | 17:37 |
minimec | varaindemian: Can you check with 'lsmod | grep r816' what driver module is loaded? | 17:38 |
nacc | Howto: why would you want to do that, though? Unless vbox is doing passthru, you'd need your host to stay connected so your VM stays connected...maybe someone else knows virtualbox better or understands better what you're trying to do | 17:38 |
ddd333 | tgm4883: i love natural scrolling. it is indeed natural | 17:38 |
tgm4883 | ddd333: brain.... wiring.... | 17:38 |

nacc | varaindemian: did this message ("[10139.280349] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): enp3s0: link is not ready") occur after you restarted networking? | 17:40 |
varaindemian | nacc: before | 17:40 |
nacc | varaindemian: afaict, there's nothing link related there; i'd guess there may be an issue with that driver, but hard to say. I've never had to deal with realtek device (althoguh their support has been iffy, iirc) | 17:40 |
nacc | varaindemian: are you sure? there's a big gap and then in a matter of seconds it's back up | 17:41 |
Howto | By the way how do I get dhcp connection in bridged network? | 17:41 |
varaindemian | nacc: probably because I left the pc and when I came back I had no connection | 17:42 |
Howto | Or just tell me the option in Ubuntu to choose dhcp option | 17:43 |
tgm4883 | Howto: it should be getting a DHCP address automatically. Are you sure the NIC works in the VM? | 17:43 |
Howto | Because this is the only issue I need to overcome | 17:44 |
minimec | varaindemian: Ok I think I am getting closer. One solution seems to be to set the card to 100baseT instead of 1000baseT. See here https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/787949/embedded-systems/netdev-watchdog-eth0-r8169-transmit-queue-0-timed-out-with-tegra-r21/post/4359675/#4359675 | 17:44 |
varaindemian | nacc: how do we read that time actually? | 17:44 |
minimec | varaindemian: Citation: "Just add the line to /etc/rc.local: sudo mii-tool -F 100baseTx-FD eth0" | 17:44 |
minimec | varaindemian: Others try to use some driver options... ' options r8169 use_dac=1 debug=8'. see here... https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/794758/jetson-tk1-r8169-ethernet-cuts-on-high-load/ | 17:45 |
varaindemian | minimec: hmm related to nvidia? | 17:46 |
nacc | varaindemian: that's the kernel's internal clock (usually) | 17:47 |
minimec | varaindemian: ..."Ethernet cuts on high load" | 17:47 |
nacc | Howto: i reassert, though, it doesn't make a lot of sense for a VM to provide DHCP address to its own host (IMO) | 17:48 |
varaindemian | minimec: I'd assume I add that before exit 0, right? | 17:48 |
minimec | varaindemian: Right. | 17:48 |

jiggawattz | but the ubuntu train is derailing on the systemd tracks unfortunately | 18:20 |

jiggawattz | jerichowasahoax ▸ if you want something better - go with Slackware | 18:20 |

ripdisk | hey guys.....I have this laptop made by MSI, and i wanted to put ubuntu on it and dual boot with the current install of windows 8 or 10 or whatever is on it.....but when i tried to do it, ubuntu's setup said it could not detect any other OS installed. When i checked the partition tree, it was an absolute mess with all kinds of strange small partitions for various backup crap. I decided that i | 18:21 |
ripdisk | would install the OS on a portable hdd...so i got a 1tb usb drive. what do i have to do in order to install ubuntu on a portable HDD? where will the boot loader go? etc | 18:21 |

adrian_1908 | hello. can anyone recommend a lightweight audio player for Ubuntu like foobar2000? I used deadbeef in the past which comes fairly close, but was wondering if anyone has other recommendations. Emphasis on lightness. | 18:30 |
DJones | adrian_1908: Not sure about lightness, but I use clementine | 18:31 |
MonkeyDust | adrian_1908 audacious is light too | 18:32 |
adrian_1908 | MonkeyDust: audacious looks like it might fit, i'll check it out. | 18:33 |
minimec | adrian_1908: audacious as 'swiss army knife' and lollypop for the music collection. Also... not sure about lightness, but lollypop is by far the most beautiful music player available for linux, but it's not working with 14.04 | 18:34 |
minimec | adrian_1908: https://gnumdk.github.io/lollypop-web/ | 18:35 |
adrian_1908 | looks good but far beyond what i need. foobar2000 is like this: http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--x0F4GWg2--/18s06pkq1yv4kpng.png though it has started to experience feature bloat as well. It's like a small client in the background with a playlist that follow simple UI principles (drag & drop, copy, cut, paste, trim) which i really like. | 18:39 |
jerichowasahoax | adrian_1908: If you happen to have Wine already installed, then you can just use foobar2000 :V | 18:40 |
jerichowasahoax | adrian_1908: Wine is not lightweight in the slightest though, so if you don't already have it, have you looked at mpd+ncmpcpp? | 18:40 |
adrian_1908 | jerichowasahoax: i have looked at those, but that's taking it too far :þ I'll try audacious, or install deadbeef again, which wasn't half bad (just looking for other recommendations). Thanks. | 18:42 |
jerichowasahoax | adrian_1908: fair enough | 18:50 |
adrian_1908 | gotta run, thanks for the recommendations guys! I just messed around with audacious and i think i'll be really satisfied with that :) | 18:53 |

jamesheston | Is it insecure to install services like PostgresSQL, MongoDB, and Dokku while logged in as the root user on a fresh server? | 18:54 |
jamesheston | If so, should I create a new user like "default" or "admin", or should I log in as the only user I'm seeing in the /home directory: "ubuntu" | 18:54 |
nacc | afidegnum: that question doesn't exactly make sense. Do you mean having a continer for each application? | 18:54 |
nacc | jamesheston: i mean, you need to be root to install packages in ubuntu (sudo or otherise) | 18:55 |
nacc | jamesheston: but login as ubuntu and use sudo | 18:55 |
tgm4883 | jamesheston: what VPS is that? | 18:55 |

jamesheston | nacc: Thanks! | 18:55 |
nacc | Morphius_: if it's not packaged you can use pip ? | 18:56 |
jamesheston | tgm4883: I'm using rackspace | 18:56 |
jamesheston | nacc: So ubuntu is the default user with non sudo privileges on Ubuntu servers? | 18:56 |
nacc | afidegnum: still rather confused. What does containerization have to do with customizing the settings for openoffices? | 18:56 |
nacc | jamesheston: i believe ubuntu has sudo access by default (but it might depend on your VPS) | 18:57 |
Morphius_ | nacc: Thanks. | 18:57 |

ioria | nacc, :þ | 18:59 |
ikonia | afidegnum: do you have an actual question ? | 18:59 |
afidegnum | I asked the question earlier :) | 18:59 |
nacc | afidegnum: the tricky part is that graphical applications in a container is still not trivial (afaict) | 18:59 |
ikonia | afidegnum: what question ? | 18:59 |
afidegnum | nacc: well that is an example i m giving | 19:00 |
nacc | afidegnum: so even if you had the applications in containers (trivially achievalbe), you ahve to display them somehow and that tends to be ... ugly | 19:00 |
afidegnum | i want to have custom installation setings for each applicaitons | 19:00 |
ikonia | afidegnum: so the ability of settings vary from app to app | 19:00 |
ikonia | afidegnum: you'll need to be specific | 19:00 |
k1l_ | afidegnum: sounds like you want #snappy | 19:00 |
afidegnum | ikonia: i was looking for the tool that will make it work :) | 19:00 |
ikonia | afidegnum: you're not going to get one | 19:01 |
ikonia | afidegnum: it varys from application to application | 19:01 |
afidegnum | k1l_: is snappy stand alone ? or it can be installed into an existing installation ? | 19:02 |
ikonia | snappy won't help it | 19:02 |
nacc | so my understanding, and i might be wrong, was that afidegnum was wondering if it's possible to launch multiple instances of a program (one per container) in containers and thus customize them all separately. That is 100% doable, but how useful that is depends on the application still. | 19:02 |
k1l_ | afidegnum: yes | 19:02 |
afidegnum | nacc: i.e custom IDE for different debugging environment | 19:04 |
afidegnum | i used openoffice as an example, | 19:04 |
ikonia | it depends on the application | 19:04 |
ikonia | there are very simple options for some applications, zero options for others, it really depends on real world situations and requirements | 19:04 |
ikonia | rather than a generic wondering out loud | 19:04 |
snima | How can I solve this problem? "/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: ERROR: failed to open ID file '/root/.pub': No such file (to install the contents of '/root/.pub' anyway, look at the -f option)" | 19:04 |
ikonia | snima: there is no file of that name | 19:05 |
ikonia | snima: why are you trying to setup keys on root | 19:05 |
ikonia | snima: root is disabled as an account on ubuntu by default | 19:05 |
nacc | ikonia: it's for libvirt live migration, where libvirtd is running as root (on one of hte hosts) | 19:05 |
snima | ikonia: a person solved his problem by this way "https://bugs.launchpad.net/devstack/+bug/1487262" | 19:05 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 1487262 in devstack "live migration doesn't work with default config" [Undecided,Fix released] | 19:05 |
ikonia | snima: I don't mean to be rude here - but you're trying to run complex virtualization, but you can't debug a "file not found" error | 19:06 |
nacc | snima: can you pastebin `ps aux | grep libvirtd` on both hosts? | 19:06 |
ikonia | perhaps you should look at what you're actually doing | 19:06 |
snima | ikonia: :p | 19:07 |
ikonia | snima: I'm not joking | 19:07 |
ikonia | I find it an unacceptable situation | 19:07 |
nacc | snima: minimially, you should understand how ssh keys work and understand why that bug was solved that way (rather than just c&p the solution) | 19:08 |
snima | ikonia: sorry. | 19:10 |
snima | nacc: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18259560/ | 19:10 |
nacc | snima: right, so just to clarify, i asked earlier which user libvirtd is running as, you said something like 'snima' and 'ubuntu'. It's running as 'root' on both systems. | 19:10 |
ikonia | I just wouln't support this attitude of not learning the basics and giving bad info | 19:11 |
snima | nacc: yes, I run it without root but currently it is runnig by root | 19:11 |
snima | :| | 19:11 |
zzo38 | How to install the Apache 2.4 package on this version of Ubuntu? The one included with the system is version 2.2. | 19:12 |
ikonia | zzo38: don't | 19:12 |
ikonia | zzo38: upgrade to a version of ubuntu that supports it out of "main" repo | 19:12 |
ioria | !info apache2 | 19:13 |
zzo38 | I need to use a new feature of 2.4 (the <If> directive) and do not want to upgrade Ubuntu because it causes problems | 19:13 |
ubottu | apache2 (source: apache2): Apache HTTP Server. In component main, is optional. Version 2.4.18-2ubuntu3 (xenial), package size 84 kB, installed size 488 kB | 19:13 |
ikonia | zzo38: why does it cause problems | 19:13 |
OerHeks | only precise 'had' apache2.2 | 19:14 |
nacc | snima: running `virsh` without root is not the same as running libvirtd as not-root. Again, this implies some serious misunderstanding :( | 19:14 |
zzo38 | Everyone has mentioned various problems with upgrading the operating system; the store I purchased it from said not to upgrade but I did not know why, but later on I found out why; it can stop it from working properly or at all. | 19:14 |
zzo38 | (Which means to properly upgrade instead I would need to reinstall the entire system, and I do not want to do that, as I have many configurations set. Also I do not want to use Wayland or Mir) | 19:15 |
ioria | zzo38, are you on 12.04 ? | 19:15 |
snima | nacc: ok, I understood. | 19:15 |
zzo38 | ioria: Yes | 19:16 |
xangua | zzo38: what problems are you having updating? What Ubuntu release? | 19:16 |
virtuosoj | I want to host a local copy of my Wordpress sites in order to change code/themes/plugins without breaking the main sites. I was thinking of setting up a virtual machine with Ubuntu Server 16.04 and installing Wordpress there. Will this work? Could I connect to it from the same laptop that's hosting the VM? | 19:16 |
ikonia | zzo38: you don't use wayland or mir | 19:17 |
ikonia | zzo38: I suggest you work on fact, not bad info | 19:17 |
ikonia | and upgrade / reinstall | 19:17 |
ikonia | virtuosoj: why bother with a vm | 19:17 |
zzo38 | ikonia: Yes I know; X is better | 19:17 |
ikonia | virtuosoj: just host it your box/desktop | 19:17 |
ikonia | zzo38: then why are you saying you don't want to use wayland/mir when you don't hve to | 19:18 |
xangua | ikonia: you know what? You haven't stated what problems are you having updating | 19:18 |
xangua | zzo38: ups | 19:18 |
nacc | virtuosoj: but the answers to your questions are yes and yes, afaict. | 19:18 |
zzo38 | I have not tried upgrading the operating system, but they told me not to, and many people say it can stop the system from working properly | 19:19 |
nacc | zzo38: who are these "many people"? google results? | 19:19 |
ikonia | zzo38: and may people are telling you it is the best way to get apache 2.4 | 19:19 |
ikonia | so do you want to be specific or just generic random | 19:19 |
zzo38 | nacc: No, outside of Google | 19:19 |
nacc | zzo38: do you have some special hardware that is no longer supported? | 19:20 |
zzo38 | nacc: I don't know. | 19:20 |
ikonia | zzo38: maybe these people can help you get apache 2.4 | 19:20 |
nacc | zzo38: worst-case, try 14.04 on a liveusb/cd ? | 19:20 |
ioria | zzo38, you should tell more about your system ? ppa ? server ? custom config ? non-pae cpu | 19:20 |
zzo38 | nacc: Ah, I could do that to see if it is supported, but I still don't know if an upgrade (rather than a reinstall) would break it | 19:21 |
zzo38 | ioria: It is a PC that I purchased from a store with OEM Ubuntu preinstalled. I think the version was old at the time I purchased it and they said to don't upgrade. | 19:22 |
nacc | zzo38: you know you eventually have to upgrade, right? (next year) | 19:22 |
ikonia | if in doubt, backup and re-install | 19:22 |
ioria | zzo38, oh, really ? | 19:22 |
zzo38 | nacc: O, I do? Why is that? I hope they don't remove any packages that I am using or mess up any configuration I have set up? | 19:23 |
zzo38 | (Note that I have hacked Firefox, so it is unlikely to work if upgraded) | 19:24 |
ikonia | hacked firefox...what | 19:24 |
nacc | zzo38: 12.04 is only supported for 5 years. So I guess "have to" is maybe harsh, but it ceases to be supported then | 19:24 |
ioria | zzo38, can you paste cat /proc/cpuinfo ? | 19:24 |
DArqueBishop | nacc: it's not that harsh. An unsupported OS becomes more dangerous to the net at large the longer it is left un-upgraded. | 19:24 |
zzo38 | http://sprunge.us/AFiX | 19:24 |
nacc | DArqueBishop: yeah, that's a good point | 19:24 |
ikonia | zzo38: you're best bet in all seriousness a.) backup your data b.) do a clean install of ubuntu 16.04 onto your machine | 19:25 |
ikonia | zzo38: you sound like you're in a very bad situation | 19:25 |
ioria | zzo38, it's ok | 19:25 |

bekks | hi all | 19:27 |
zzo38 | I also got rid of HPKP, although I would rather to keep it but allow user override; that seems too difficult to do though. | 19:27 |
ikonia | zzo38: I think you best support your own machine then | 19:27 |
bekks | are there known issues with kernel 4.4.0-2x and nvidia? Apparently my 14.04 broke, I had to uninstall the lts enablement stack for xenial, revert to the wily one, and I a still unable to use nvidia. nouveau seems to work fine, as a workaround, now. | 19:28 |
ikonia | sounds like a timebomb | 19:28 |
DArqueBishop | zzo38: ... why in the name of all that is sane and rational would you disable those? | 19:28 |
ikonia | bekks: couple of people passed some comments on it not loading properly in the last few days, but they seem exceptions rather than the norm | 19:28 |
ikonia | bekks: what's up with your box when it's running 4.4. | 19:28 |
zzo38 | DArqueBishop: HSTS is bad. HPKP is good except for the part that user override is not possible, therefore HPKP is also bad. | 19:29 |
bekks | Running 4.4 and nouveau, the screen has black borders around it, and I am unable to log in. Logging in result in being logged out a few seconds after. | 19:29 |
ikonia | bekks: what about on the nvidia module ? | 19:30 |
zzo38 | (I have also made all sorts of other customizations in Firefox, including custom XBL, altered SQL schema, userChrome.js, userChrome.css, etc) | 19:30 |
ikonia | zzo38: your box is unsupportable | 19:30 |
bekks | ikonia: It errors out on modprobing it, with a message about an unknown function. Regardless of which nvidia-* driver I'm using from the repos. | 19:30 |
bekks | ikonia: The same applies for 4.2 + nvidia | 19:31 |
brunch875 | If I launch a game with a better nice priority, will it run better? | 19:31 |
bekks | brunch875: Most likely not. | 19:31 |
brunch875 | I thought so... :c | 19:32 |
ikonia | bekks: yeah, that was what the other guys where complaining about, couldn't get the module to load | 19:32 |
bekks | ikonia: Correct, yes. | 19:32 |
ikonia | bekks: have you got any 4.x kernel working ? I'd be surprised if there isn't a bug on launchpad for this | 19:32 |
bekks | ikonia: I got it running until a few days ago, arounf the 27th, after that, some package got updated and the whole thing broke. | 19:33 |
ikonia | bekks: not good, on an LTS build too | 19:33 |
zzo38 | And I removed all of the toolbar buttons and search box (now the only thing on the toolbar is the location bar), forced it to display punycode and percent-encoding instead of Unicode characters, disabled JavaScript by default, restored the status bar, changed the location bar to accept relative URLs, caused most of the user interface to use bitmap fonts, removed close buttons from tabs, widened and squared tabs, and other stuff. | 19:34 |
ioria | zzo38, ok :þ, run trusty in vm | 19:34 |
bekks | ikonia: Hopefully that will be resolved soon. | 19:35 |
ikonia | bekks: be worth checking launchpad for the bug and it's status | 19:35 |
zzo38 | And programmed a kind of scrollbars to act more like Xaw, but that does not quite work so well. Do you know how to make it use Xaw scrollbars and Xaw stuff? | 19:35 |
bekks | ikonia: Do you have a bug # handy? | 19:35 |
nacc | zzo38: i think you've veered offtopic at this point :) | 19:35 |
sky | is there a way to compare nginx-light vs nginx-full in terms of functionality? | 19:35 |
zzo38 | Probably you are correct. | 19:35 |
ikonia | bekks: not at all, don't know if one even exists | 19:36 |
bekks | ikonia: Seems like this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304-updates/+bug/1574930 | 19:36 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 1574838 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-361 (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1574930 nvidia-361 361.42-0ubuntu2: nvidia-361 kernel module failed to build [error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode]" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 19:36 |

ikonia | zzo38: you can't | 19:38 |
ikonia | zzo38: they are built against a graphics library | 19:38 |

ubottu | Asad2005: 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.

aruns | Do I need to restart my machine? | 20:27 |
goddard | nacc: gonna re-create an environment and change some underlying software was gonna do it in a vm and move it back to the original machine | 20:27 |
aruns | tumtoes: Have you tried Livestreamer? | 20:27 |
tumtoes | tumtoes, what is that? | 20:27 |
tumtoes | aruns, I would rather just fix whatever is wrong with my computer. | 20:28 |

nacc | goddard: that's not really an ubuntu support question :) | 20:30 |
tumtoes | I thought it was because of videos, but then it did it the other day when the computer was just sitting there | 20:30 |
aruns | tumtoes: I would recommend installing Livestreamer. It's a command-line utility written in Python that allows you to stream videos online with matching plugins to a media player of your choice. | 20:31 |
goddard | nacc: so you don't know? | 20:31 |
nacc | goddard: are you hosting the vm server too, then? this is rather confusing to understand. By creating a VM locally, your machine is a VM server already ... | 20:31 |

Bashing-om | Just erasing it and loging out and in will restore the defaults configurations that your distro ships in. | 20:31 |

goddard | nacc: have you ever setup a "cloud" server | 20:33 |
nacc | goddard: you mean a hosting-services server? | 20:34 |
aruns | Bashing-om: The trouble is that System Settings for me on XFCE4 shows what seems to be a settings interface for a phone - and if I swipe to the right, it says 'About this Phone' | 20:35 |
aruns | tumtoes: Which desktop manager are you using now? | 20:35 |
nacc | aruns: how did you "install XFCE" ? | 20:35 |
tumtoes | aruns, xkde | 20:35 |
goddard | nacc: i mean an internet facing vm server | 20:35 |
nacc | goddard: i haven't brought one up myself, but i've helped others do so ... why do you ask? | 20:36 |
goddard | nacc: what did you use to do it? | 20:36 |
aruns | nacc: sudo apt-get install xfce4 | 20:37 |
tumtoes | aruns, xfce. Sorry, new to ubuntu | 20:37 |
tumtoes | not xkde | 20:37 |
aruns | tumtoes: Ah, OK. | 20:37 |
tumtoes | xkde is a website, It hink | 20:37 |
tumtoes | lol | 20:37 |
aruns | tumtoes: Which web browsers are you using? Firefox is quite a resource hog AFAIK. | 20:38 |
tumtoes | aruns, I've tried firefox and chrome | 20:38 |
aruns | tumtoes: And it just slows down when you're streaming videos? | 20:39 |
tumtoes | aruns, well, I thought it was because of videos. It didn't slow down, it would just freeze. And it happened the other day when the computer was just running. I wasn't even doing anything | 20:39 |
tumtoes | It just froze, bad | 20:39 |
ComMan | nacc: nmcli dev wifi connect NAME PASSWORD it is not working i do not get it, why? | 20:39 |
tumtoes | To where I had to do a hard reset | 20:39 |
aruns | tumtoes: Is it an old machine? | 20:39 |
tumtoes | aruns, no. I just bought it from amazon. New computer too | 20:40 |
tumtoes | It isn't the best but it isn't bad | 20:40 |
tumtoes | It cost me about 200 USD | 20:40 |
aruns | Hmm. | 20:40 |
goddard | nacc: ? | 20:41 |
aruns | tumtoes: We'll need to know your machine's specs. | 20:41 |
nacc | goddard: not really relevant to what you need, afaict. I've used kvm/qemu, libvirt, etc. with various frontends for mgmt. in the past. | 20:41 |
tumtoes | aruns, hold plz | 20:42 |
goddard | nacc: so you have used vm clients not servers | 20:42 |
goddard | ? | 20:42 |
nacc | goddard: i've used both. | 20:42 |
goddard | nacc: ok so what ones? | 20:42 |
nacc | goddard: how is this an ubuntu support question? | 20:43 |
Malex88 | can someone tell me what this means <<warning boot script modified please contact your vendor>>? | 20:43 |
nacc | ComMan: what does it do/print? (pastebin)? | 20:43 |
tumtoes | aruns, http://pastebin.com/AKqr3c9r | 20:44 |
goddard | nacc: how isn't it? | 20:44 |
bekks | Malex88: You get that message when doing what? | 20:44 |
Malex88 | restarting ubuntu mate | 20:44 |
Malex88 | having problem with wi-fi | 20:44 |
nacc | ComMan: nmcli device connect takes an "ifname" parameter; did you create one with `nmcli connection add` first? | 20:44 |
nacc | ComMan: i've not used nmcli, i'm just reading the manpages myself, btw | 20:45 |
ComMan | nacc: this is very complicated, 1 moment i will paste you the error | 20:45 |
tumtoes | aruns, is that good enough? | 20:45 |
nacc | ComMan: ok | 20:46 |
ComMan | nacc: http://paste.fedoraproject.org/387278/46740596/ | 20:46 |
Malex88 | it appeared when ived restarted my laptop because of the wifi connection problem | 20:46 |
nacc | goddard: this is a channel to help with issues you are having with Ubuntu. Your question is (currently) what VM servers have I setup in the past. You see the difference? | 20:46 |
curlyears | heigh hough | 20:47 |
aruns | tumtoes: Yeah, should be fine for now...so you have about 16GB of RAM? | 20:48 |
tumtoes | aruns, yeah | 20:48 |
aruns | tumtoes: What's your processor? | 20:48 |
goddard | nacc: You do realize ubuntu has cloud services and vm software right? | 20:49 |
ikonia | goddard: what's your actual question then ? | 20:49 |
curlyears | I am pretty sure nacc would be aware of that, actually | 20:49 |
tumtoes | aruns, trying to figure that out | 20:50 |
tumtoes | sorry | 20:50 |
curlyears | the ubuntu one cl0oud service has closed | 20:50 |
curlyears | accortding to what iot said when I tried to use it recwently\ | 20:50 |
k1l_ | curlyears: depends on what service you talk about from ubuntu one. the data sync has. but there are some left | 20:50 |
tumtoes | aruns, intel pentium 2.16 ghz | 20:51 |
curlyears | k1l_: ah, that wasn't cklear to me, thanks | 20:51 |
ComMan | nacc: did you see my paste? | 20:51 |
curlyears | \has anyonoe seen the 8 core 1.6Ghz ARM single boards, around half the size of a Pi with tons of I/O and about $50 each? | 20:52 |
aruns | tumtoes: I think it might be a processor issue...even if you have 16 GB of RAM. | 20:52 |
tumtoes | aruns, what is the issue with the processor? | 20:52 |
aruns | tumtoes: 2.16 GHz is very slow for a processor. | 20:53 |
aruns | tumtoes: By today's standards. | 20:53 |
aruns | AFAIK. | 20:53 |
tumtoes | aruns, hence it being 200 USD I guess. | 20:53 |
aruns | tumtoes: You get what you pay for lol. | 20:53 |
curlyears | aruns: faster thabn many laptops, @2.16GHz | 20:53 |
tumtoes | Can I just replace the processor? It is a laptop | 20:53 |
nacc | ComMan: sorry, looking | 20:54 |
curlyears | hey, nacc! | 20:54 |
OerHeks | tumtoes, " lscpu " will tell what pentium, maybe it is an i7 | 20:54 |
nacc | curlyears: heya | 20:54 |

Pedrux | hmm | 20:58 |
Pedrux | hello my friend | 20:58 |
aruns | tumtoes: Another thing, how large is your swap partition? | 20:58 |
tumtoes | Not sure | 20:58 |
nacc | ComMan: ok, and did you actually pass a password to `nmcli` ? | 20:58 |
tumtoes | Ohhhh | 20:58 |
OerHeks | tumtoes, Max Memory Size (dependent on memory type)8 GB .. http://ark.intel.com/products/82105/Intel-Pentium-Processor-N3540-2M-Cache-up-to-2_66-GHz | 20:58 |
tumtoes | That could be it though! aruns | 20:58 |
OerHeks | so you have 16 gb? | 20:58 |
tumtoes | OerHeks, I guess not? Maybe it's just 86b | 20:58 |
aruns | Don't they say that swap space should be twice as RAM? | 20:59 |
aruns | *twice as big as | 20:59 |
tumtoes | aruns, you think I need to turn down swap? Isn't the default ubuntu swap size rather large? | 20:59 |
curlyears | I don't understand the output of lscpu. It tells me there are 4 cores per socket, and one socket. But it tells me there are 0-7 "CPUs available" ???? | 20:59 |
nacc | that's old advicse :) | 20:59 |
ikonia | curlyears: threading | 20:59 |
nacc | curlyears: logical CPUs (not physical) | 20:59 |
curlyears | yeah, each core can handle 2 threads, according to the lscpu output | 20:59 |
tumtoes | oh | 20:59 |
aruns | tumtoes: No, swap space is basically used to store inactive memory pages | 21:00 |
tumtoes | I thought it says 1 thread per core | 21:00 |
curlyears | this =was sold as an 8 core AMD64, it damned well better have 8 cpus | 21:00 |
=== Myrtti_ is now known as Myrtti | ||
aruns | tumtoes: So that if you're running out of RAM, inactive application instances can be put into swap. | 21:00 |
curlyears | tumtoes: that depends on the exact CPU you have | 21:00 |
aruns | tumtoes: For when you want to run more applications. | 21:00 |
tumtoes | aruns, so how do I increase the swap space, or check its current size? | 21:00 |
nacc | aruns: the twice as big advice is a bit outdated these days | 21:01 |
Malex88 | can someone help me fix my wi fi conection please | 21:01 |
nacc | aruns: i don't use swap at all usually | 21:01 |
Bashing-om | tumtoes: ' free ' . | 21:01 |
=== Nach0z_ is now known as Nach0z | ||
OerHeks | curlyears, it probably does: some cores are CPU cores, some GPU?? | 21:02 |
tumtoes | Bashing-om, http://pastebin.com/ju65RN4P aruns nacc OerHeks | 21:02 |
aruns | tumtoes: I'm sure you can use a file these days. | 21:02 |
ComMan | nacc: i wrote a password, but i am not sure if it correct, some places say i should write it in hex ot nscii and i do not get it | 21:02 |
curlyears | \OerHeks: I don't think so. It's supposed to be an 8 core CPU | 21:02 |
curlyears | hex? where does it tell you to use hexadecimal? | 21:03 |
curlyears | That's what it said on the bubble package, anyway, and that's what tigerdirect charged me for. | 21:03 |
nacc | ComMan: the password would be your wpa password, i'd think (based upon your prior paste) | 21:03 |
curlyears | gotta run | 21:05 |
ComMan | nacc: yes | 21:05 |
tumtoes | aruns, seems like there is plenty of swap space | 21:05 |
nacc | ComMan: dunno why that would involve hex at all? | 21:05 |
Bashing-om | tumtoes: That says you have 4 gigs of ram .. and a 4 gig swap .. of which none of swap is presently being used . | 21:06 |
ComMan | nacc: i don;t know either, that is what is written in the forums, so what command should i use to connect? | 21:06 |
tumtoes | Bashing-om, so I need to turn down my swap? Should I turn it to about 2gb? | 21:06 |
nacc | ComMan: afaict, `nmcli --ask device wifi connect <SSID> password` | 21:07 |
nacc | ComMan: also, did you reaad the manpage? "only open, WEP and WPA-PSK networks are supported at the moment" | 21:08 |
Bashing-om | tumtoes: Not at all .. Nothing wring - if you have the disk space - with a 4 gig swap .. dependent on how intensive you get with number crunching .. If it works do not fix it . | 21:08 |
Bashing-om | worong* | 21:08 |
tumtoes | Bashing-om, something is making my computer just completely freeze randomly. To the point that I have to do a hard reset | 21:08 |
aruns | tumtoes: OK, so we have ruled out swap space, I think... | 21:08 |
ComMan | nacc: so in the command i just add my password in password? i do not replace my wifi name in <SSID>? | 21:08 |
nacc | ComMan: specify your SSID in the ssid, and if you pass --ask, I think it will prompt you from the wpa password. But as the manpage said, i'm not sure it actually supports wpa2 auth | 21:09 |
tumtoes | aruns, okay | 21:10 |
Bashing-om | Then look at what is causing it .. 'top' running in it's own terminal .. see what is consumming the resources . Maybe now is a good time to start learning to read the log files . | 21:10 |
ComMan | nacc: is there another application? i really don't get it, it is too complicated, pluse i have WAP2 | 21:11 |
tumtoes | Bashing-om, it's a fresh install though | 21:12 |
Bashing-om | tumtoes: Bear in mind that 4 Gigs of ram is plenty to run a "normal" desktop . | 21:12 |
tumtoes | Bashing-om, k | 21:12 |
nacc | ComMan: are you still on raspbian? | 21:13 |
MonkeyDust | iirc, raspbian isnt even supported here | 21:14 |
nacc | MonkeyDust: ack, just checking on it :) | 21:14 |
* nacc just recalled this question from yesterday, for a similarly nick'd user :) | 21:14 | |
ikonia | well, he is on raspbian as he's asking about it in #raspberrypi too | 21:15 |
ikonia | so it needs to stop | 21:15 |
nacc | ikonia: ah ok :) | 21:16 |
aruns | tumtoes: Hi, have you run 'top' command in terminal? | 21:17 |
tumtoes | aruns, yes. Nothing is showing | 21:18 |
tumtoes | I'm changing swap to trigger if I used 80% of memory though | 21:18 |
tumtoes | I think that will help a lot | 21:18 |
aruns | nacc: Hi, this is what my System Settings looks like: http://picpaste.com/thumbs/Screenshot_from_2016-07-01_22_20_07-ulvFy3pu.1467408083.png | 21:21 |
nacc | aruns: does seem weird... | 21:22 |
aruns | nacc: Not sure if you know why it looks like that, maybe a workaround is to add XFCE to gnome-panel.desktop? | 21:22 |
aruns | nacc: Or is it worth making a ticket for the XFCE dev team? | 21:23 |
nacc | aruns: i genuinely have no idea; i think Bashing-om tried to give you some suggestions earlier to reset the configuration | 21:23 |
c|oneman | ubuntu software center doesn't install apps unless I gksudo it ahead of time | 21:34 |

c|oneman | like any other app | 21:41 |
YankDownUnder | c|oneman: In all honesty, I prefer "synaptic" over any of the other "software installation" packages. It SHOULD ask for authorisation...could be the link to the program in your menu that's mucked up... | 21:42 |
c|oneman | it should ask for escalation before it starts? | 21:42 |

Afshaal | Hey can anyone help me figure out how to make my turd of a motherboard/BIOS actually detect and boot from USB? | 22:08 |
ikonia | Afshaal: does it support boot from usb | 22:08 |
Afshaal | I -think- so... | 22:08 |
ikonia | Afshaal: find out for sure | 22:08 |
Afshaal | it's definitely among the boot options | 22:08 |
ikonia | Afshaal: ok - so what happens when you try to boot it | 22:09 |
ikonia | Afshaal: I assume you're booting ubuntu ? | 22:09 |
Afshaal | well back when I tried unetbootin | 22:09 |
ddd333 | so much drama with my wifi in 14.04. speed is only 1/6 of full range. tried many solutions online. computer is brand new. will wifi get better in 16.04? | 22:09 |
Afshaal | It would give [boot error] | 22:09 |
skierpage | k1l_ OerHeks Thanks, if I figure out what happened I may file another bug against plasma-discover | 22:09 |
Afshaal | And yeah, it's a xubuntu iso | 22:09 |
Afshaal | close enough right? | 22:09 |
ikonia | Afshaal: what is it doing now when you try to boot it ? | 22:09 |
Afshaal | Now I'm trying my luck with using dd to turn the whole USB partition into the iso | 22:10 |
k1l_ | Afshaal: dont use unetbootin. that is known for errors lately | 22:10 |
ikonia | Afshaal: what is it doing now when you try to boot it ? | 22:10 |
skierpage | Afshaal: My crummy old PC's BIOS has an option to change the boot order, I had to move USB up. | 22:10 |
k1l_ | Afshaal: dont dd to a usb partition. dd to the /dev/sdb from that usb directly | 22:10 |
Afshaal | I don't get any response with the dd method, it just goes straight into my normal boot procedures no matter which USB option I try | 22:10 |
Afshaal | I dd'ed to /dev/sdb1 | 22:10 |
ikonia | Afshaal: usb option ? | 22:10 |
k1l_ | Afshaal: that is wrong | 22:10 |
ikonia | Afshaal: no, thats a partition | 22:10 |
Afshaal | That's the right way to do it right? | 22:10 |
Afshaal | oh I:> | 22:11 |
ikonia | Afshaal: you do it to the disk | 22:11 |
Afshaal | lol | 22:11 |
ikonia | not the partition | 22:11 |
k1l_ | Afshaal: sdb not sdb1 | 22:11 |
Afshaal | right... | 22:11 |
Afshaal | Well I guess I'll give that a try now :) | 22:11 |
skierpage | Afshaal: be really careful that sdb is your USB flash drive, otherwise you'll wipe out the start of your hard drive like I did :) | 22:11 |
skierpage | * my second hard drive | 22:11 |
Afshaal | also does it matter what filesystem I use on my USB flash? I read someone that one person had more success reformatting theirs to ext4 | 22:12 |
Afshaal | using fat32 currently | 22:12 |
Afshaal | read somewhere* | 22:12 |
ikonia | dd overwrites it | 22:12 |
skierpage | Afshaal: the .iso image reformats the start of your USB to look like an isofs (CD-ROM) file system | 22:12 |
Afshaal | Oh ah | 22:13 |
Afshaal | Can I just delete everything on my USB flash now and then dd the right way this time | 22:13 |
Afshaal | or do I have to format it first? | 22:13 |
ikonia | no | 22:13 |
ikonia | just dd | 22:13 |
ikonia | it will overwrite everything | 22:14 |
Afshaal | okay thanks | 22:14 |
skierpage | Afshaal: Just dd over the start. It's possible to dedicate a partition on your USB flash drive just for the .iso, but is quite tricky and less reliable | 22:14 |
ddd333 | I CANT WAIT FOR 16.044444444444444444444444444444444444444 | 22:14 |

ubottu | ddd333: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. | 22:15 |
Afshaal | Do I need to sudo install-mbr /dev/sdb | 22:15 |
ddd333 | ikonia: how. option is absent | 22:15 |
Afshaal | before the dd? | 22:15 |
k1l_ | Afshaal: no | 22:15 |
Afshaal | This one askubuntu answer suggested that | 22:15 |
ikonia | Afshaal: no | 22:16 |
ikonia | Afshaal: just dd | 22:16 |
Afshaal | mmhmm, okay then | 22:16 |
k1l_ | Afshaal: the .iso includes alrready everything. just point it to sdb, not the partition | 22:16 |
ddd333 | ikonia: did you read that? July 21 th | 22:16 |
ikonia | ddd333: yes | 22:16 |
k1l_ | ddd333: you can upgrade on the developer path if you really need it now. | 22:16 |
ddd333 | k1l_: i see. i''ll wait a bit better | 22:17 |
Afshaal | Dang, dd'ing to /dev/sdb didn't do nothin ;_; | 22:27 |
Afshaal | Every USB boot option I tried still gives no sign of life | 22:28 |
Afshaal | so far unetbootin is actually the only thing that's done anything | 22:28 |
Afshaal | with its boot error thing | 22:28 |
k1l_ | are you sure the iso is ok?. did the dd command work? is this regular hardware? | 22:29 |
Afshaal | It's old hardware | 22:29 |
Afshaal | my BIOS is from like | 22:29 |
Afshaal | 2006 | 22:29 |
rypervenche | That's not old. | 22:29 |
Afshaal | fairly regular otherwise :) | 22:30 |
skierpage | Afshaal: have you verified that the BIOS tries to boot from USB before other media (CD drive, hard drive, floppy) ? | 22:30 |
Afshaal | uhhhh, how would I do that? I get a boot error when using unetbootin so I know -something- is attempting to boot from USB when I do that | 22:31 |
Afshaal | All I've been doing is pressing F12 to go to my boot menu in my BIOS on startup and then selecting the various USB options | 22:31 |
Afshaal | which USB-FDD, USB-ZIP, USB-CDROM, and USB-HDD | 22:31 |
Afshaal | which are* | 22:31 |
Afshaal | none of em show signs of life using this dd method here--it just goes straight into my normal bootloader | 22:32 |
k1l_ | !md5sum | 22:33 |
ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 22:33 |
Afshaal | To give you an idea of how old my BIOS version is, it also doesn't provide an option for hardware virtualization for I can virtual machine 64-bit OSes. I've thought about flashing its firmware to a newer version before but I've never done that before and am a little apprehensive | 22:34 |
reisio | Afshaal: fine most of the time | 22:34 |
Afshaal | and yeah my MD5 sum is as it should be | 22:38 |
Afshaal | is there a way I can chainload into a USB ISO? | 22:39 |
Afshaal | I attempted it with Supergrubdisk but its USB support was experimental as it stated and the moment I enabled it my keyboard stopped working :( | 22:40 |
k1l_ | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot | 22:40 |
Afshaal | My problem is I can't access my Xubuntu partition at the moment because something is corrupted | 22:41 |
Afshaal | so I can't actually alter much of GRUB2's settings | 22:41 |
Afshaal | I'm trying to get an ISO to boot so I can retrieve some files and possibly try to repair the OS | 22:42 |
Afshaal | problem is all the newer *ubuntu ISOs are too big for CD-ROMs anymore so I'm stuck fooling around with my BIOSs shoddy USB boot support | 22:43 |
OerHeks | Afshaal, alternative would be the mini iso, that requires wired internet to install | 22:47 |
OerHeks | !mini | 22:47 |
ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 22:47 |
OerHeks | but has no live mode | 22:47 |
Afshaal | bah, yeah I need a live mode | 22:47 |
Afshaal | so I can move some files off my linux filesystem | 22:48 |
OerHeks | lubuntu is the only other cd iso i know of http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/16.04/release/ | 22:50 |
Afshaal | I guess that could work | 22:51 |
Afshaal | won't be able to repair my Xubuntu system files with it though | 22:52 |
Afshaal | not that I even know how to do that to begin with | 22:52 |

Dpsyphered | best Linux based NVR... Go! | 23:04 |
tatertots | best is subjective term @ Dpsyphered | 23:04 |
Dpsyphered | fair enough... | 23:05 |
Dpsyphered | What would you recommend? | 23:05 |
OerHeks | ubuntu + zoneminder. | 23:06 |
karen_ | hi, guys, I just got lubuntu 16.04, don't know it well, but I don't see anywhere to download "Skype". I looked in synaptic package and Lubuntu Software. What should I do? | 23:09 |
tatertots | "Skype for Web" @ karen....no install required | 23:11 |
OerHeks | enable partner repo | 23:11 |
OerHeks | !skype | 23:11 |
ubottu | To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 23:11 |
karen_ | what do you mean, "Skype for Web"? | 23:11 |
karen_ | oh sorry | 23:12 |
karen_ | thanks! | 23:12 |
OerHeks | current skype package is a binairy blob that does not work well indeed | 23:12 |
tatertots | just go here and log in and start chatting https://web.skype.com | 23:12 |
tatertots | done | 23:12 |
karen_ | really!? ok guys thanks! | 23:13 |
tatertots | what web mail is to email.....skype for web is for skype | 23:16 |
Afshaal | Well I got a Xubuntu live loaded from DVD | 23:45 |
Afshaal | Can anyone tell me how to fix a corrupted unbuntu OS? | 23:46 |
Afshaal | Wait I guess I need to figure out how to make dmraid work in the live environment first | 23:47 |
Loshki | Afshaal: all this was just to get to the stage where you could fix the real problem? | 23:51 |
Afshaal | yes :) | 23:51 |
Afshaal | I need to mount my xubuntu partition now that I'm in the live environment | 23:52 |
Afshaal | but it's not working automatically | 23:52 |
Afshaal | what do I need to fiddle with dmraid to make it properly detect my RAID setup again... | 23:52 |
pnwise | uh RAID when I hear I cringe | 23:53 |
Afshaal | I bet | 23:53 |
pnwise | how so | 23:53 |
Afshaal | Troubleshooting RAID problems in linux is always a treat | 23:54 |
Afshaal | both in dealing with the software itself and dealing with extremely unhelpful people who try to beat you over the head for using RAID | 23:54 |
Loshki | Afshaal: might have to resort to #linux-raid for help | 23:55 |
Afshaal | oh there's a channel for that now :3? | 23:55 |
Loshki | Afshaal: don't think it's new. Very low volume, which means be prepared for long wait times for answers | 23:55 |
Loshki | pnwise: the more layers you add to your filesystems, the harder it is to debug them. And when/if *hardware* raid goes wrong, you're sunk. | 23:56 |
Afshaal | Well let me just assure you at least that's there's no hardware problem with my RAID setup | 23:57 |
Afshaal | dmraid is just really fickle sometimes | 23:57 |
Seveas | untel you get so frustrated that you start hammering the hardware :) | 23:57 |
