| Mihasi | Also, I can't get nvidia-prime to work properly. It worked on my 15.10 partition, although I had to reboot to switch GPUs (instead of just logout), but when I try installing it on 16.04 (along with the nvidia-361) I get a black screen after boot. | 00:00 |
| OerHeks | BadBoy09, i think you need TOR for that, not sure as i never tried that fancy network | 00:00 |
| OerHeks | google.onion ? | 00:00 |
| YankDownUnder | heheheheheheh...yeah... | 00:01 |
| justsomeguy | Mihasi: Honestly, nvidia optimus on *nix is a mess. I've never been able to get it to work. | 00:01 |
| justsomeguy | ...but it could just be because I'm stupid. | 00:02 |
| YankDownUnder | justsomeguy: There was a time when NVidia was "the bomb" - but that's all changed now. | 00:03 |
| Mihasi | justsomeguy: it's definitely not. I've already wasted so much time on it. Eventually on 15.10 I stumbled upon a magical combination of bumblebee, nvidia-prime AND a specific version of the nvidia driver that worked and which I didn't dare to touch since, but now that 15.10 is EOL... | 00:04 |
| minasota | saw mutt-patched in the repo, installed for the sidebar patch. Doesn't have any keybindings in sidebar.rc. Tried setting a few in .muttrc, no luck. Any suggestions/help would be appreciated | 00:04 |
| Mihasi | For now, my plan is to keep the 15.10 partition for gaming, at least for the time being. I'll use this 16.04 partition for everything else, but if I'm not going to use the Nvidia GPU anyway I would like to disable it for battery savings. | 00:06 |
| justsomeguy | Mihasi: On 16.04 I ended up uninstalling/disabling everything but mesa, and blocking nouveau with a grub boot option. Hoepfully that will work for you, too. | 00:06 |
| Mihasi | justsomeguy: How exactly did you block nouveau in grub? nomoset=0? | 00:07 |
| justsomeguy | Mihasi: Probably, let me look it up. | 00:07 |
| Mihasi | *nomodeset | 00:07 |
| jon_ | nacc_, have a great weekend. anyone else willing to help? | 00:08 |
| jon_ | touchpad. or whatever that is called | 00:08 |
| Mihasi | justsomeguy: Thx. And just to be sure: you also uninstalled nouveau? I don't have that option in the "additional drivers" dialog, but I guess an apt purge should work. | 00:09 |
| justsomeguy | Mihasi: I'm not on ubuntu right now, but if I remember correctly all I did was 'dpkg --get-selections *nvidia* *nouveau*' and examined the output. I uninstalled all the packages that seemed reasonable with 'apt-get purge <packagename>'. I think I used "nouveau.modeset=0". | 00:11 |
| justsomeguy | ...at the grub boot screen to block nouveau during boot time. | 00:11 |
| justsomeguy | Mihasi: Also, be sure to have mesa installed. | 00:12 |
| Mihasi | justsomeguy: Any specific mesa packages I should have installed? Right now it looks like these are the drivers I have installed: mesa-vdpau-drivers (along with number of related dri, glx,... packages) | 00:16 |
| justsomeguy | Mihasi: Honestly, I don't know. I think you already have what you need. I usually break my system several times while trying to solve issues like this. | 00:18 |
| Mihasi | justsomeguy: I know the feeling. Maybe I should wait until someone can answer the vgaswitcheroo questions. I think the "DynOff" option *should* mean that it's switched off... | 00:20 |

| BlueProtoman | How do I install Fmod on Ubuntu? I can't seem to find up-to-date instructions anywhere. | 00:36 |
| Mihasi | BlueProtoman: Can't help you with Fmod, but I can share your frustration about not finding up-to-date instructions, especially for a distro that is supposed to be newbie-friendly. | 00:42 |
| tgm4883 | fmod seems to be a commercial application... | 00:44 |
| nomic | outta these 3, what would people recommend for setting up a websocket, port 80, proxy server on ubuntu/linux 1. apache2 2. lighttpd 3. nginx | 00:44 |
| BlueProtoman | tgm4883: It's got a free library, which I'm trying to install. | 00:47 |
| rypervenche | nomic: Dependt on your needs. I like nginx personally. | 00:47 |
| nomic | i thought nginx 1. there seem to be more inroads to the setup of websocket (proxy) .. 2. v light/fast/small .. apache is like the leatherman .. 3. | 00:48 |
| tgm4883 | BlueProtoman: by free, you mean as in beer I suppose | 00:48 |
| nomic | 3. it seems to be supported/current | 00:49 |
| mchelen2 | BlueProtoman: it's free as in $0, but not free as in freedom | 00:49 |
| mchelen2 | i.e. behind a registration wall | 00:49 |
| nomic | also, I read that nginx as of a recentish version has websockets built in, as standard | 00:49 |
| BlueProtoman | mchelen2, tgm4883: Correct | 00:50 |
| mchelen2 | BlueProtoman: unfortunately that means its kind of hard for us to look at | 00:50 |
| nomic | have installed/ tried out apache .. seems to be a bit slow on a raspberry pi 3 | 00:50 |
| nomic | apache2 | 00:50 |
| mchelen2 | BlueProtoman: you could try https://wiki.debian.org/FMOD idk how current it is | 00:50 |
| mchelen2 | nomic: what os are you running? | 00:51 |
| nomic | mate for the server .. on raspberry pi 3 | 00:51 |
| mchelen2 | there are a ton of perf tweaks you can use | 00:51 |
| mchelen2 | also dont run gui on server | 00:51 |
| rypervenche | nomic: https://www.nginx.com/blog/websocket-nginx/ | 00:51 |
| tgm4883 | BlueProtoman: I'd point out that it seems silly to blame a distribution for the difficulty of installing commercial software that the developers don't seem to support all that well | 00:51 |
| mchelen2 | tgm4883: i didn't see them doing any blaming? | 00:51 |
| nomic | thanks for that article rypervenche .. not always obvious searching ie. THE article | 00:52 |
| nomic | getting blogs etc | 00:52 |
| tgm4883 | mchelen2: TBF, it was Mihasi | 00:52 |
| mchelen2 | nomic: nginx is good too, in either case i still recommend headless, no-gui os for server | 00:52 |
| nomic | erm .. it gives a bit speed increase? | 00:52 |
| nomic | hmm .. cos that means I would have to get another pi3 | 00:52 |
| nomic | mchelen -- headless because the gui, even not used, is sucking up resource? | 00:53 |
| nomic | these raspberry pi3s are breeding -- already got 2 as desktops | 00:53 |
| rypervenche | nomic: Why do you need a GUI? | 00:53 |
| nomic | thought could just put server on 1 .. if its a big performance increase | 00:53 |
| nomic | because I am using hte pi3s as desktops | 00:53 |
| nomic | seriously .. it works | 00:54 |
| rypervenche | ... | 00:54 |
| nomic | i type on laptop, with xubuntu, mouse drifts across to raspberry pi 3 screens, with x2x | 00:54 |
| rypervenche | You don't need/want one on a server. | 00:54 |
| nomic | asking again -- it really slows it down | 00:54 |
| rypervenche | On a pi, it definitely can. | 00:55 |
| nomic | upon deployment, I would set up a headless | 00:55 |
| nomic | for test, atm, would go with it on the thing that I use for tv etc | 00:55 |
| rypervenche | I suppose this isn't really Ubuntu-related. | 00:55 |
| nomic | mate | 00:56 |
| rypervenche | Oh, they have added OSes since I last looked. | 00:57 |
| nomic | got enough info -- carry on | 00:57 |
| nomic | how many? | 00:57 |
| Mihasi | tgm4883: I confess, I was doing the blaming. :P But I wasn't blaming the distribution for the difficulty of installing commercial software, but for the lack of centralized, up-to-date information. It's a bit weird that I usually find better explanations on the Arch wiki than in the Ubuntu docs, wiki and AskUbuntu combined... | 00:57 |
| rypervenche | Go with a GUI if you are comfortable with it. | 00:57 |
| nomic | understood .. its overhead | 00:58 |
| nomic | why there are server versions (no gui) | 00:58 |
| mchelen2 | tgm4883: oh ok | 00:58 |
| nomic | would get a rpi3 and clock it | 00:58 |
| nomic | aint done that yet | 00:58 |
| nomic | clocking is as a standard option with the pi3 | 00:59 |
| nomic | you just need a heatsink -- v nice copper ones all over ebay -- just stick them on .. the rpi3 doesn't need a fan | 00:59 |
| mchelen2 | nomic: yeah desktop software has a big overhead, servers should run only server software | 00:59 |
| mchelen2 | you can develop with that extra stuff but dont expect good perf | 00:59 |
| Hulio | anyone know how to write getting the mattch regular expression for this ? Your IP address: <a href="/ip/123.123.123.123"> | 01:00 |
| mchelen2 | Mihasi: anecdotal evidence is anecdotal | 01:00 |
| Hulio | i'm not good on regular expression | 01:00 |
| nomic | as with anything surrounding the pi3 .. this is not an issue now .. the units consume 1.5 watt of power, maximum -- and the board cost (last time I looked), is $33 | 01:00 |
| Bashing-om | Mihasi: Are you aware : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PopularPages ? A tremendous amount of effort and resources are expended to keep it current . | 01:00 |
| mchelen2 | Hulio: try http://www.regexpal.com/ | 01:00 |
| Hulio | mchelen2, come on man | 01:00 |
| Hulio | really | 01:01 |
| mchelen2 | yes really | 01:01 |
| mchelen2 | lern2regex | 01:01 |
| mchelen2 | Hulio: you didn't even say what you were trying to match in that | 01:01 |
| rypervenche | Hulio: #regex is useful. | 01:02 |
| Hulio | basically i have a lot of string. and i want to get IP from string that contain Your IP address: | 01:02 |
| Hulio | ok thakns | 01:02 |
| Mihasi | Bashing-om: thanks, didn't know about those yet. | 01:03 |
| Bashing-om | Mihasi: :) .. No internet police to clean up debris that get left behind . | 01:04 |
| mchelen2 | Mihasi: yeah there is just no way to document install / usage for every piece of software out there | 01:05 |
| Mihasi | mchelen2: How does Arch do it then? | 01:05 |
| Mihasi | Don't get me wrong, I love Ubuntu. | 01:05 |
| Mihasi | I've only used Arch once for a couple of months, but the Wiki is just extremely well done. | 01:06 |
| rypervenche | Mihasi: I think rolling release makes it easier. | 01:06 |
| tgm4883 | When you have to configure everything manually, you end up having to document everything /s | 01:07 |
| Mihasi | rypervenche: Why would that be the case? They still need to update it every time a package is (significantly) updated, right? | 01:08 |
| * nomic not a fan of regex | 01:08 | |
| rypervenche | Mihasi: Yes, but only for one version of it. | 01:08 |
| nomic | hopefully that article (nginx websocket proxy) won't bee too attached to node.js .. all articles are -- I am not using node.js | 01:10 |
| nomic | seems everyone is | 01:10 |
| mchelen2 | Mihasi: are you comparing them 1:1? can you say arch wiki covers X topics well, and ubuntu wiki covers Y topics, and X > Y? | 01:11 |
| mchelen2 | Mihasi: or is it that arch wiki is covering the topics that you happen to be interested in | 01:11 |
| mchelen2 | (which is still a big achievement, just somewhat different) | 01:11 |
| mchelen2 | nomic: what are you using? node is nice for async stuff, which is where ws shine | 01:12 |
| tgm4883 | Can we move this discussion to #ubuntu-discuss | 01:12 |
| nomic | autobahn = twisted | 01:12 |
| mchelen2 | tgm4883: yeah fair enough | 01:12 |
| Mihasi | tgm4883: sure | 01:12 |
| nomic | ws is only for async | 01:12 |
| nomic | i aint decide yet, between autobahn or tornadio | 01:12 |
| nomic | tornado .. tbh .. whatever I get working first, goes in | 01:13 |
| nomic | many people favor tornado | 01:13 |
| nomic | node.js seems to have taken the market -- but, from what I understand, it is a subset of javascript | 01:13 |
| nomic | maybe why it has taken the market | 01:13 |
| Mihasi | exit | 01:14 |
| * nomic would favor autobahn = twisted | 01:14 | |
| skweek | i've read node.js is pretty powerful... | 02:07 |
| skweek | i've also read that rails is too | 02:07 |

| blacknred0 | any recommendations on how to generate a key so I don't get this error -> "Unable to negotiate with 127.0.0.1: no matching host key type found. Their offer: ssh-dss"? I am doing "ssh-keygen -t rsa" | 02:44 |

| rypervenche | blacknred0: http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html | 03:04 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: yes, I found that, but I am not sure how to know if I am using the right key, if is not rsa, would i need to create it using dsa? | 03:05 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: svr debian 6.0.10; client ubuntu 16.04 | 03:05 |
| blacknred0 | i mean, it does work if i do ssh -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss user@hostname , but i am trying to avoid adding options on my ssh commands | 03:06 |
| rypervenche | blacknred0: Does the client have a dsa key in its ~/.ssh/ directory? | 03:09 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: yes, on ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 and for fail save ~/.ssh/authorized_keys | 03:10 |
| rypervenche | blacknred0: I mean an actual key. Like id_dsa | 03:10 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: sorry, yes, the id_dsa is on client and the server has the public key on those path | 03:11 |
| rypervenche | blacknred0: Does the client have an RSA key as well? | 03:12 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: yes, that is what doesn't make any sense | 03:12 |
| rypervenche | blacknred0: Add -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa to your SSH command. | 03:12 |
| blacknred0 | i've tried both rsa and dsa | 03:13 |
| rypervenche | Same error when you specify it like that? | 03:13 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: yep | 03:13 |
| blacknred0 | hold on... I am calling help desk from the hosting to see what might be happing | 03:14 |
| rypervenche | I wonder if it's because the known hosts or something. | 03:14 |
| blacknred0 | yep | 03:14 |
| blacknred0 | just wanted to make sure that i was sane before i contact them | 03:14 |
| rypervenche | blacknred0: Was the server ever an older version of Debian that was then upgraded? | 03:15 |
| rypervenche | blacknred0: Try running "ssh-keygen -A" on the server with root/sudo (it won't overwrite anything). See what that does. | 03:16 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: that i don't know | 03:17 |
| rypervenche | Don't know what? | 03:18 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: if the debian version was upgraded | 03:20 |
| rypervenche | blacknred0: That will create any keys on the server that don't exist already. Then we'll check your server's /etc/ssh/sshd_config. | 03:20 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: i assume that they are using old dss and that's why i am having the issues | 03:21 |
| rypervenche | blacknred0: Debian 6 should have RSA. | 03:21 |
| rypervenche | Unless it's some really restricted service that you have. | 03:21 |
| blacknred0 | that could be very well | 03:21 |
| blacknred0 | let me see what support has to say | 03:22 |
| blacknred0 | thanks rypervenche | 03:22 |
| rypervenche | blacknred0: Do you not have root access? | 03:22 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: not on the server | 03:23 |
| rypervenche | Ah ok. Good luck then :) | 03:23 |
| rypervenche | You have a workaround until they fix it. | 03:23 |
| blacknred0 | yep, i kind of figured | 03:24 |
| blacknred0 | wow! rypervenche, server is running "OpenSSH_5.8p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010" | 03:31 |
| rypervenche | And therein lies the problem^^ | 03:31 |
| blacknred0 | so, it is the client that is blocking it? | 03:32 |
| blacknred0 | that makes more sense if they can't shake hands | 03:32 |
| rypervenche | Yes. OpenSSH 7.0 and up have disabled the DSS cipher by default as it is weak. | 03:32 |
| blacknred0 | rypervenche: ok | 03:33 |

| jonky | last week after a software update, my wireless adapter(tp-link t4uh) stopped working. there were 4-5 people here at the same time experiencing hardware problems after the update, but nothing was figured out while I was here. have any similar problems or resolutions been mentioned lately? | 04:23 |

| YankDownUnder | Yeah - there are "Tor" tools already built into the repos...why bother going through the hassle of "external" setups...hmm...(re-inventing the wheel) | 04:44 |
| usul | Yeah makes sense. Tor's website says to avoid using univ repo but honestly imma just do it anyway. How can I remove the gpg keys I added? | 04:45 |
| usul | or does it not matter | 04:45 |
| reisio | usul: why's it say that? | 04:48 |

| jim__ | Great wizards of Ubuntu, I want to set up a mail server that runs locally only. It's been a few years but I use to set up BSD and OSF lab systems that had a mail facility limited to the local system only. This basically allowed programs to send problems messages to root. How do I get Ubuntu to do that same thing? | 05:02 |
| reisio | jim__: that's pretty much the default | 05:03 |
| reisio | just install a mail server & call it a day | 05:03 |
| jim__ | I have been looking at potential mail servers and they all go into how to connect to a POP server and all that, most confusing and unnecessary. What is the simplest mail server out there? | 05:05 |
| reisio | jim__: whatever tasksel chooses | 05:06 |
| reisio | probably postfix | 05:07 |
| jim__ | yep, I have seen postfix all over the place... maybe I was reading to far into the instructions.... | 05:08 |
| * YankDownUnder has a giggle about "simple" mail servers | 05:11 | |
| YankDownUnder | I think building a nuclear device is vastly simpler than building a smooth running mail server...(well, I've built many mail servers...so I can only venture a guess at nuclear devices) :) | 05:12 |
| lyh | hello | 05:15 |
| lyh | ?? | 05:16 |
| bynarie | jim__, u could try mail in a box, https://mailinabox.email/ | 05:16 |
| bynarie | its a stack thats super simple to configure | 05:17 |
| jim__ | Hmmm.... haven't looked at "mailinabox" yet, I'll check it also | 05:17 |
| bynarie | if ur looking to host your own email server with a domain name and have zero experience setting up mail servers, this is basically your option | 05:19 |
| jim__ | Mailinabox right up front has a few key phrases that worry me "turns a fresh cloud computer into a working mail server" a bit more than I'm looking for I think. | 05:21 |
| YankDownUnder | ...was just sussing that out...makes me prefer postfix+courier a bit more...I prefer to have things "in sight" as it were... | 05:22 |
| dea | Hi. I was hoping someone would help me with pulse audio. | 05:24 |
| === dea is now known as Guest5875 | ||
| reisio | Guest5875: pulseaudio; what about it | 05:25 |
| Guest5875 | Well, I started out with my mic not working. I disabled one of the input channels and that worked. Then, the channel turned itself on and auto leveled with the remaining one, disabling my mic again. I came here for help, got told to poke around the config. Did that, now I get no audio at all after I log in. | 05:28 |
| reisio | Guest5875: /nick deaguy | 05:29 |
| reisio | Guest5875: laptop? | 05:29 |
| Guest5875 | Yeah, it's a lenovo flex 2. | 05:30 |
| === Guest5875 is now known as deaincaelo | ||
| deaincaelo | I thought I had undid all the edits to daemon.config and restarted, but apparently I noobed something. | 05:32 |
| reisio | thinking'll do that, every time | 05:32 |
| deaincaelo | hrm? | 05:33 |
| reisio | deaincaelo: what if you open up pavucontrol and change the mic to the 'unplugged' option | 05:33 |
| niceman | wow | 05:34 |
| YankDownUnder | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure | 05:34 |
| reisio | niceman: I concur | 05:34 |
| niceman | what? | 05:34 |
| deaincaelo | Still no response unless I kill a channel. I would have to watch it for a random reset. | 05:34 |
| reisio | niceman: agreed | 05:36 |
| deaincaelo | I'll check it in an hour | 05:36 |
| niceman | what? | 05:36 |
| niceman | what are u talking about reisio? | 05:36 |
| deaincaelo | Any thoughts about the audio none issue? | 05:37 |

| joshh20 | Hello, I am attempting to start a GRE tunnel upon reboot but for some reason the ip route commands aren't being run by crontab | 05:38 |
| niceman | double n is good | 05:38 |
| YankDownUnder | deaincaelo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure | 05:40 |
| niceman | what is it? | 05:40 |
| niceman | I still use Windows on my pc | 05:40 |
| jim__ | postfix states that it started life as SendMail, which is the tool use on the BSD and OSF systems I was use to. So... it looks like postfix is what I'll try to use. Its just that as I read the instructions it seems like they immediately get into setting up your FQDN, of which I have none.... So maybe it is as simple as install and leave it alone. who knows... | 05:43 |
| YankDownUnder | jim__: Works great with dynamic dns, ya know...so, you can utilise FQDN with dynamic dns... | 05:44 |
| === k is now known as Guest58452 | ||
| joshh20 | Hello, I am attempting to start a GRE tunnel upon reboot but for some reason the ip route commands aren't being run by crontab. Any ideas why this would be? | 05:50 |
| deaincaelo | Thanks yank, but that doesn't seem the right troubleshooting flow. I did a little reductive t/s and it looks like a Chrome issue. Audio works in Firefox. | 05:51 |
| YankDownUnder | deaincaelo: Far out...BLAME GOOGLE! Yeah! (I like blaming Google for whatever I can...it's nearly natural...and if not Google, it's Micro$oft) | 05:52 |
| jim__ | YankDownUnder: I have a real simple hosts file. first line: 127.0.0.1 localhost second line: 127.0.1.1 boxer No DNS, No FQDN, just a simple stand alone system | 05:55 |
| reisio | pqdn? :p | 05:55 |
| YankDownUnder | jim__: So is this supposed to be a "standalone" isolated mail server - like more or less a respository for email as opposed to a "fetch/store/send" serverr? | 05:56 |
| jim__ | YankDownUnder: the only thing I want out of the mail utility is to deliver to "root" messages from applications | 05:57 |
| jim__ | some apps when they finish just feel they absolutely must tell someone about it and they want to do it via a mail message. | 05:58 |
| YankDownUnder | So you should be able to follow through the postfix setups for an isolated server...that doesn't connect to the "world" as it were... | 05:58 |
| YankDownUnder | http://www.postfix.org/STANDARD_CONFIGURATION_README.html | 05:59 |
| jim__ | yep, thats my goal | 05:59 |
| YankDownUnder | Look at "postfix on a null client" | 05:59 |
| YankDownUnder | Easy done. | 05:59 |
| jim__ | thanks, I'll take a look at it. | 06:00 |
| Dat | is it worth upgrading to 16.04 from 14.04? | 06:01 |
| YankDownUnder | Yes. | 06:01 |
| Dat | YankDownUnder: can you tell me any reasons why? | 06:01 |
| YankDownUnder | Pretty colours. | 06:02 |
| Dat | I know in the past when I did an upgrade somethings work some didn't | 06:02 |
| YankDownUnder | JOKING...better device support, more current drivers for network devices and the likes... | 06:02 |
| Dat | YankDownUnder: anything besides that? | 06:02 |
| Dat | hrmm | 06:02 |
| Dat | is 14.04 life cycle dead? or is it still being supported? | 06:03 |
| reisio | well you can't avoid updating forever | 06:03 |
| Dat | and i heard the new 16.04 uses systemd does that change things abit ? | 06:03 |
| reisio | I mean you can, but you'll regret it eventually | 06:03 |
| YankDownUnder | Dat: The kernels are quite smooth...I've tested Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and also Ubuntu with AfterStep, WindowMaker, Englightenment, Openlook Virtual Window Manager, Ubuntu server....Samba is smooth as with Ubuntu server...and I've had very few issues with wifi and sound drivers. | 06:03 |
| * YankDownUnder likes systemd | 06:03 | |
| reisio | Dat: sure, some | 06:03 |
| YankDownUnder | (My preference, though) | 06:04 |
| Dat | hrmm i guess i may have to learn systemd | 06:04 |
| reisio | if you want to use a distro that uses it, probably | 06:04 |
| Dat | reisio: yeah i try and avoid updates as much as i can, it seems when i update i get the latest and greatest bugs | 06:04 |
| Dat | reisio: i currently use kubuntu | 06:05 |
| deaincaelo | Also, it defaulted back to internal microphone, adter I changed it to microphone (unplugged) | 06:05 |
| Dat | 14.04 | 06:05 |
| joshh20 | I think I may switch from Linux to systemd soon | 06:05 |
| reisio | joshh20: heh | 06:05 |
| reisio | deaincaelo: did it work while it was set to 'unplugged'? | 06:06 |
| jim__ | systemd, as I read it, is a boot process that gets all in a hurry to try to do as little as possible until it has to. | 06:06 |
| reisio | Dat: some distros make more drastic changes from version to version than others | 06:06 |
| Dat | i just updated my mac from 10.6 to the new el capitan that i have been avoiding for along while, seems nice but I need more ram :( | 06:06 |
| reisio | the distro I use, for example, has had the same init system the entire 16 or so years I've been using it | 06:06 |
| reisio | with no particular signs of changing | 06:06 |
| Dat | reisio: what distro is that? | 06:07 |
| reisio | mmm, could probably afford more ram if you didn't spend so much on brushed metal | 06:07 |
| reisio | Dat: the one I chose | 06:07 |
| deaincaelo | reisio, yes it did. At least it responded correctly in the bar. It also responds the same if I set it to internal microphone and turn down either channel. | 06:07 |
| Dat | mmmk | 06:07 |
| reisio | deaincaelo: okay, then you can just script it to change to the unplugged setting every time you start the system | 06:08 |
| Dat | anyone living with a cd/dvd player or burner on their system? | 06:08 |
| reisio | hacky, but in a pragmatic way | 06:08 |
| Dat | mine has wentout but im conflicted if i should replace it | 06:08 |
| deaincaelo | I would have to run that script multiple times if it keeps changing the setting during runtime. | 06:09 |
| YankDownUnder | I've got a nice external CD/DVD that is used when it's actually needed...otherwise, it collects dust and makes a good partial bookend. | 06:09 |
| irwiss | could just grab external | 06:09 |
| Dat | YankDownUnder: i was thinking the same, maybe invest in a external but i wonder if my internal cd/dvd burner could be converted into hard-drive space. | 06:10 |
| Dat | YankDownUnder: do you have a setup like that? | 06:10 |
| YankDownUnder | Dat: I've give up all my "big" machines for laptops and mini-ATX machines - so, fairly everything is external. The linux servers and workstations mount directly behind the LCD monitors - ditto with servers - and HD space is all externals and "arrays"...does that make sense? I don't like mucking about with fans and dust anymore...and space, well, space is always at a premium...ergo, mini-things and external things...easier to | 06:12 |
| YankDownUnder | maintain and deal with. | 06:12 |
| Dat | hrmm sounds good think i know what i'll do thx | 06:13 |

| plop_its_ellie | it is | 06:37 |
| joshh20 | Hello, I am attempting to start a GRE tunnel upon reboot but for some reason the ip route commands aren't being run by crontab | 06:37 |
| Dat | hrmm ok | 06:37 |
| plop_its_ellie | Dat, for lts releases they dont show up in the updater until its been out for a year | 06:37 |
| YankDownUnder | Dat: If you can't go from 14.04 but millions of other folks can, then there's something bigger to worry about, eh? :) | 06:38 |
| plop_its_ellie | YankDownUnder, they dont show up in the updates until its been out for a year | 06:38 |
| plop_its_ellie | most likely for stability reasons, lts releases are all about stability | 06:39 |
| tgm4883 | not a year, the first point release | 06:39 |
| tgm4883 | !ltsupgrade | 06:39 |
| ubottu | Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. | 06:39 |
| plop_its_ellie | tgm4883, thanks for the clarifacation | 06:39 |
| Dat | darn i got disconnected | 06:39 |
| plop_its_ellie | wow thats actually sooner than i thought | 06:39 |
| Dat | plop_its_ellie: you think its safe to go the do-release-upgrade -d route or just install fresh? | 06:40 |
| plop_its_ellie | Dat, personally i would just back up my data and install fresh | 06:41 |
| tgm4883 | Dat: you could also just wait 2 weeks | 06:41 |
| Dat | plop_its_ellie: i was already on a fresh install so i have nothing to loose | 06:41 |
| plop_its_ellie | but i would wait probably a couple weeks to a month after the .1 release before doing the upgrade | 06:41 |
| plop_its_ellie | and test it on a non production system in the meantime | 06:41 |
| plop_its_ellie | 16.04 still has some bugs... | 06:41 |
| Dat | plop_its_ellie: ahh gotcha | 06:42 |
| Dat | maybe I should go with 15.04 for now | 06:42 |
| plop_its_ellie | Dat, i wouldnt recommend that | 06:42 |
| plop_its_ellie | its not even supported anymore | 06:42 |
| plop_its_ellie | just stick to 14.04 in the mean time | 06:42 |
| Dat | oh dang | 06:42 |
| Dat | ;/ | 06:43 |
| plop_its_ellie | whats wrong with 14.04? | 06:43 |
| Dat | nothing at all that I can see | 06:43 |
| Dat | always worked well for me. | 06:43 |
| plop_its_ellie | well there you go :) | 06:43 |
| Dat | i was just trying to get the latest and greatest since im on a fresh install | 06:44 |
| plop_its_ellie | well if you are going to do a fresh install, no uprgades i guess you might as well go 16.04 tho | 06:44 |
| plop_its_ellie | just keep in mine that there are some bugs tho... | 06:45 |
| plop_its_ellie | otherwise if you want more stability then wait a bit longer on 14.04 | 06:45 |
| Dat | gotcha | 06:45 |
| Dat | i like stableness | 06:45 |
| Dat | so 14.04 it is | 06:45 |
| Dat | i suppose I'll kill the do-release and re-install | 06:46 |
| Dat | thx for the tips plop_its_ellie! :) | 06:46 |

| Prelude2004c | hey everyone good evening ... i have a GRE tunnel ... one one end its a public IP but on the other i have a NAT and i have a port forward of say port 1234 > port 22 .. how do i set the gre up so it uses the remote ip with port ? | 08:25 |
| BenSolo|Cell | Hope there will be an LTS Xorg version | 08:25 |

| BenSolo|Cell | I wasn't being pessimistic I was being realistic I have to move all my boxes to another Distro now. | 08:26 |
| Prelude2004c | cool thank you | 08:27 |
| BenSolo|Cell | Mir doesn't have support for a third of the old cards Xorg does. | 08:27 |
| ducasse | BenSolo|Cell: 16.04 still uses xorg, so you've got at least another 5 years. | 08:27 |
| BenSolo|Cell | Np Prelude2004c hope ya get that figured out buddy. | 08:27 |
| BenSolo|Cell | ducasse: Yeah thats true. | 08:28 |
| ducasse | BenSolo|Cell: i wouldn't panic quite yet :) | 08:29 |
| tatertots | that's understandable BenSolo...heck i've got a few boxes with AMD radeon gpu's and software that requires proprietary driver that spell dooms day for me too | 08:29 |
| tatertots | it is what it is | 08:29 |
| BenSolo|Cell | Yeah well Linux is all about support for old hardware just don't see why they would switch away from a perfectly working display platform that supports 1000s of old cars. | 08:30 |
| tatertots | that's one of the reasons several of my boxes will remain on Ubuntu 12.04 until i decommission them | 08:30 |
| BenSolo|Cell | Cards. | 08:30 |
| cfhowlett | I feel the same way about my reel to reel tape recorder. NO GOOD REASON not to support them! | 08:31 |
| BenSolo|Cell | But then again I guess Ubuntu is more useful for introducing windows users to Linux Desktop. | 08:31 |

| tatertots | i hope amd and the green team find a way to keep their proprietary drivers relevant while at the same time not dropping support for older gpu's......wishful thinking i know but a guy can dream can't he | 08:34 |
| BenSolo|Cell | They also have a thift store where you can buy dirt cheap tested used pc parts. | 08:34 |

| BenSolo|Cell | Dat you need 2 things.. The module for your Bluetooth adapter and a Bluetooth manager like blue man | 08:38 |
| varaindemian | I installed this package https://github.com/aacebedo/i3-xfce and now I don't know how to continue https://paste.ubuntu.com/18874239/ | 08:38 |
| Dat | BenSolo|Cell: how can I get the module for my bluetooth? | 08:38 |
| BenSolo|Cell | If ya found it in lusb search the name of the card like apt-cache search cardname | 08:38 |
| cfhowlett | varaindemian, see instruction # 13 | 08:38 |
| Dat | Hrmm ok I'll check | 08:39 |

| YankDownUnder | paranoidabhi: Are you booting to the login screen, or automatic login? | 08:43 |
| paranoidabhi | YankDownUnder, automatic login | 08:47 |
| paranoidabhi | cfhowlett, Please check this http://askubuntu.com/questions/795169/kde-slow-boot-on-kubuntu-16-04#comment1197419_795169 | 08:48 |
| cfhowlett | paranoidabhi, I did indeed see that. sorry, can't add anything useful. | 08:49 |
| YankDownUnder | paranoidabhi: As a test, why not turn off the automatic login, and as well, create a brand new user -> reboot so that it goes to the "display manager" - the login screen -> that will tell you how fast the SYSTEM boots...and then, time the login of the new account, and time the account you already use. You may find that it's actually KDE/Plasma that takes a while to load itself - as opposed to the system...hmm... | 08:49 |
| YankDownUnder | paranoidabhi: And I shall validate this, mate - I run KDE/Plasma - and it's a slow load - as opposed to other window managers/desktops...so, you'd not be alone in that bit... | 08:50 |
| paranoidabhi | YankDownUnder, by slow, what time are you looking at? | 08:51 |
| === julien_ is now known as Guest78358 | ||
| YankDownUnder | paranoidabhi: My actual "workstation" - this one - that I'm typing on - takes approximately 9 seconds to boot to the login screen. KDE/Plasma, however, takes at least 20 seconds or longer to get to the desktop... | 08:51 |
| tgm4883 | paranoidabhi: laptop? | 08:51 |
| paranoidabhi | YankDownUnder, I tried that the kde part takes 1:30 min itself and ubuntu takes 1 min | 08:52 |
| paranoidabhi | tgm4883, yes | 08:52 |
| YankDownUnder | paranoidabhi: THAT is a bit on the "strange" side...what is the actual speed of the HDD you've got? | 08:52 |
| YankDownUnder | 5400rpm? | 08:53 |
| tgm4883 | paranoidabhi: out of curiosity, what happens if you plug an ethernet cable in and boot | 08:53 |
| prabhakar | hi | 08:53 |
| MonkeyDust | paranoidabhi here too, userspace takes about 1 min, so it's kinda normal, i guess | 08:54 |
| paranoidabhi | YankDownUnder, yes it is 5400 rpm | 08:54 |
| YankDownUnder | paranoidabhi: Thought so... | 08:54 |
| paranoidabhi | YankDownUnder, is that less? | 08:54 |
| paranoidabhi | tgm4883, interesting, why do say that? | 08:54 |
| tgm4883 | paranoidabhi: because I see lots of time associated with network manager | 08:54 |
| YankDownUnder | paranoidabhi: My missus had a 5400rpm drive - changed it to a 7200rpm drive - things were vastly different after that - as well, I tweaked the drive settings with hdparm and ureadahead | 08:55 |

| varaindemian | cfhowlett: where do I execute i3-xfce install? | 09:01 |

| varaindemian | ducasse: Any clue where is that? | 09:03 |
| YankDownUnder | varaindemian: What exactly are you trying to accomplish? What IS i3-xfce...? | 09:03 |
| paranoidabhi | tgm4883, This is a bug(https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104351) I facing right now. Do you think it is connected to boot | 09:04 |
| ubottu | bugzilla.kernel.org bug 104351 in Network "r8169: "rtl_counters_cond == 1 (loop: 1000, delay: 10)." spam" [Normal,New] | 09:04 |
| varaindemian | YankDownUnder: I installed this package https://github.com/aacebedo/i3-xfce and now I don't know how to continue https://paste.ubuntu.com/18874239/ | 09:04 |
| ducasse | varaindemian: he probably meant "read the instructions, then follow them". random github projects are not supported here, but by their authors. | 09:05 |
| MonkeyDust | varaindemian your lines are hard to read and follow, because you only use links to be opened ... type full sentences | 09:06 |
| YankDownUnder | varaindemian: Let me get this straight - you installed a program directly from github...and now you want to "run" it, but apparently you've not actually read much up on the program that you just installed, and you wish for someone else to tell you how to run this program, correct? | 09:06 |
| varaindemian | YankDownUnder: Afet pip3 install i3-xfce, I don't know where that thing is isntalled | 09:07 |
| paranoidabhi | YankDownUnder, I also use ureadahead, but it hasn't made much difference. Can you illustrate on the hdparm settings if possible. | 09:08 |
| YankDownUnder | varaindemian: I suppose simply put, you've installed a program that you've not really read much about. let alone the documentation on it (and it would appear to be something for XFCe, not Ubuntu), and you're seeking support - right...so, have you considered reading through the "wiki" on the github site for this project? Or the manual? | 09:08 |
| YankDownUnder | paranoidabhi: yeah, if the drive is slow-AS, ain't much going to help, really...unless you want to use a 32-bit version of the OS - or just an older kernel/version/distro - you MIGHT be able to tweak a bit with hdparm (if it's not installed already) | 09:09 |

To have an internet connection in the guest I select bridge adapter in VBox configuration, but the guest ubuntu can't connect. If I make a "ifconfig" on the guest I see that there is not IP assigned. Any suggestion please? | 10:43 |
| sudo | mcfdez87, which adapter type (wlan0 | eth0) did you choose ? | 10:44 |
| mcfdez87 | sudo, wlan0 | 10:46 |

| mcfdez87 | sudo, yes in host machine works fine | 10:47 |
| sudo | Does ifconfig shows adapter ? | 10:48 |
| sudo | for bridge | 10:49 |
| mcfdez87 | sudo, yes the command show lo and enp03. I think that enp0s3 is the "virtual" adapter | 10:50 |
| mcfdez87 | but there is no IP address assigned to this adapter | 10:50 |
| ducasse | mcfdez87: you will either need to assign a static address or request one via dhcp | 10:51 |
| mcfdez87 | ducasse, where need to do this,throught the guest ubuntu (in network maneger)? | 10:52 |
| MonkeyDust | mcfdez87 try NAT instead of bridged, for testing purposes | 10:52 |
| ducasse | mcfdez87: if you are using network manager, yes. | 10:52 |
| mcfdez87 | MonkeyDust, NAT works fine | 10:53 |
| sudo | ducasse, dhcp works by default in Virtualbox if you connect by bridge ! | 10:53 |
| sudo | mcfdez87, check your settings in network for that machine and verify if everything proper. | 10:56 |
| mcfdez87 | sudo, in the guest? | 10:56 |
| sudo | virtualbox setting | 10:57 |
| mcfdez87 | ducasse, I launched (in guest) dhclient enp0s3 to request a new address, but it stills with this message a lot of time: DHCPDISCOVER on enp0s3 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 | 10:58 |

| sudo | mcfdez87, what options in short available to you | 11:05 |
| mcfdez87 | sudo, ducasse throught the network manager of the guest ubuntu I seeted a manual IP in the DHClient tab and now when I do ifconfig I see that the adapter has an IP and the icon shows connected, but I not have internet connection. Maybe because the router not assigned the connection? | 11:06 |
| mcfdez87 | sudo, I will try with all options | 11:07 |

| flrns | MonkeyDust: it's not a Ubuntu Phone. it's just some general issue with a damaged fat-filesystem | 11:21 |
| ducasse | flrns: you could try to run 'mkfs.fat -c ...' to check for bad blocks. that's the only suggestion i've got, though, i would just discard it if has started giving problems. | 11:22 |
| flrns | ducasse: thanks. I've already tried several checks (testdisk, dosfsck, fsck), but I will try. thanks again. | 11:25 |
| Guest25043 | my computer run ubuntu? 2.2G cpu 2G memory? | 11:26 |
| ducasse | Guest25043: xubuntu or lubuntu should be fine, maybe mate, 2g ram might be a bit small for unity, kde or gnome. | 11:29 |
| sudo | Can somebody just iilustrate on how to use avahi-daemon to broadcast hostname ? | 11:30 |
| ducasse | sudo: just install and start it, and it will broadcast services. | 11:31 |

| brainsto | What is the difference between software rendering x and just x? | 11:41 |
| brainsto | software rendering cinnamon and cinnamon for instance | 11:41 |
| brainsto | at the login screen | 11:41 |
| ducasse | brainsto: software rendering is done by the cpu, not the gpu. | 11:41 |
| brainsto | I tried software rendeing and it is slower then ususal | 11:42 |
| ducasse | brainsto: eh, yes, because it is not hardware accellerated. | 11:43 |
| brainsto | ducasse: I never knew there was something like gpu, I only know cpu | 11:43 |

| Phenx | ? | 11:56 |
| sudo | hey zeroconf makes use of dns but for that would require a registration on dns on network manager machine. Any way I could just broadcast my name and address both so that client could connect through address (working without dns regitration) | 11:59 |
| sudo | Or if I can place some method call to get my hostname notified to central dns from ubuntu ? | 12:00 |
| sudo | even temporary registry would be sufficient for me like in the case if that uses dchp ! | 12:01 |
| sudo | so every time I would register at the connection to network ! | 12:01 |
| sudo | Is there a channel for java ? | 12:03 |
| ducasse | sudo: i'd guess ##java, ask alis. | 12:04 |
| sudo | No, the channel is #java I think. But it says invite only. Isn't it possible to connect then ? | 12:08 |
| sudo | Or is there another channel for general people ? | 12:09 |
| sudo | I think this channel awakes when time is of midnight in my country | 12:13 |
| ducasse | sudo: no, it's ##java - read the topic there. | 12:13 |

| impi | hello | 12:15 |
| impi | does anyone here have a howto of how to connect to my ubuntu with vnc? | 12:15 |
| impi | nothing i try wants to worl | 12:15 |
| impi | work | 12:15 |
| sudo | what vnc client do you use ? | 12:16 |
| sudo | vnc client software I mean | 12:16 |
| ducasse | impi: and which vnc server? | 12:18 |
| impi | hello ducasse | 12:18 |
| impi | i tried vcnserver, tightvnc server, all from howto's - some suggested that i set in the start up to use xfce | 12:18 |
| impi | but in short, i simply can't see my desktop, sometimes I can connect using ports from 5900 - 5905 but i never see the mouse curser move on the remote pc | 12:19 |
| impi | im trying to control my laptop that is driving my tv screen | 12:19 |
| ducasse | impi: vnc4server and remmina is a combination that usually works for me, i suggest you try that. | 12:21 |
| impi | lemme give it a go | 12:21 |
| impi | thanks | 12:21 |
| jpmh | when I runa netstat I see tcp6 for ports 80 and 443 but I can connect using ipv4, other ports such as 993 are showing in both tcp and tcp6 - please explain | 12:22 |
| MonkeyDust | jpmh maybe in ##networking | 12:37 |
| Kinder-Pingvi | hi guys! I have too small question. Does ubuntu have community repository like AUR in arch linux? | 12:45 |
| ducasse | !ppa | Kinder-Pingvi | 12:45 |

| otsoaUnLoco | Does anyone have any idea why my torrent downloads all "pause" at 4.20MB for about a minute with increased cpu usage before resuming? It's so ridiculous I don't even know how to get any info about it | 13:10 |
| otsoaUnLoco | in transmission | 13:10 |
| lyze | Hey! Is there a way to sync everything from one ubuntu server to a clean installed different server? | 13:11 |
| baizon | otsoaUnLoco: try a different torrent client? | 13:11 |
| lyze | So that basically the new one runs like the old one? (both vservers) | 13:11 |
| Gregor3000 | lyze: have you looked at clonezilla? otherwise rysnc is the software for file syncs. | 13:13 |
| otsoaUnLoco | I tried Deluge, it also does similar thing though at different threshold. And it only happens in Ubuntu | 13:14 |
| lyze | Gregor3000, can't use clonezilla since the new hard drive is smaller. Does rsync also work when the other system is different? | 13:14 |
| Gregor3000 | otsoaUnLoco: aside form trying a different client you can also check the logs or monitor activities with top or htop commands to see what is causing the spike (is it the client itself or something else) | 13:15 |
| otsoaUnLoco | it is the client | 13:15 |
| otsoaUnLoco | which log should i check? | 13:15 |
| k00pa | how can I reset / reinstall / fix ubuntu after installing new graphics card | 13:15 |
| k00pa | I had nvidia proprietary drivers installed for gtx 670 and now with 1070 on the machine the system crashes under 30 seconds or so | 13:16 |
| otsoaUnLoco | remove drivers | 13:16 |
| k00pa | and the local consoles are spammed with errors so I cant use those | 13:16 |
| k00pa | yeh, how | 13:16 |
| otsoaUnLoco | sudo apt purge nvidia* | 13:16 |
| k00pa | well I hope that the ssh is enabled because the fuck can't stay up 30 seconds if I log in | 13:16 |
| sudo | did you called me otsoaUnLoco ? | 13:17 |
| Gregor3000 | lyze: what do you mean system is different? different hardware? rsync or other sync software just syncs the software. smaller disk? make a smaller partition, then clone. | 13:18 |
| lyze | Gregor3000, yeah different hardware. So basically I can just clone "/" over to the other one? | 13:18 |
| k00pa | how to stop dmesg spam on the local terminal? | 13:19 |
| Gregor3000 | k00pa: you can boot into text mode from GRUB | 13:19 |
| Gregor3000 | no desktop | 13:19 |
| k00pa | well there goes the GUI mode | 13:19 |
| otsoaUnLoco | k00pa have you tried using other kernel? | 13:20 |
| otsoaUnLoco | I've had similar issues with nvidia drivers | 13:20 |
| k00pa | it ain't the nvidia drivers | 13:20 |
| k00pa | or its that I have wrong ones installed because I changed my graphics card | 13:20 |
| Gregor3000 | lyze: wll (ehm should) work if you didn't install any additional drivers, made kernel patches for specifi hardware etc. | 13:21 |
| k00pa | and this piece of shit can't switch to a fallback driver that doesn't crash | 13:21 |
| lyze | Gregor3000, nope I didn't, nice! | 13:21 |
| k00pa | okey, commandline, how do I install the latest nvidia drivers that work? | 13:21 |
| otsoaUnLoco | sudo apt install nvidia-361 | 13:21 |
| k00pa | thank you | 13:21 |
| otsoaUnLoco | you're welcome | 13:22 |
| Gregor3000 | k00pa: just boot directly into text mode, remove the proprietary drivers and boot with opensource ones. you should be able to get to GUI (if not try nomodeset boot option) and then use the GUi to install new or latest nvidia drivers. | 13:22 |
| k00pa | dmesg spam stopped after the driver crashed or something | 13:22 |
| k00pa | spoilers: the opensource ones crash also | 13:23 |
| k00pa | same issue | 13:23 |
| Gregor3000 | otsoaUnLoco: just use a multi log viewer and see what is being logged at the time it happens. e.g. lnav | 13:25 |
| Gregor3000 | k00pa: you need 367 driver. | 13:27 |
| Gregor3000 | you may need to do a manual install. | 13:27 |
| Gregor3000 | k00pa: http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/104284/en-us | 13:27 |
| Gregor3000 | Added support for the following GPUs: GeForce GTX 1080, GeForce GTX 1070 | 13:28 |
| k00pa | blargh.. okey thanks | 13:28 |
| k00pa | ye the 361 crashed again | 13:28 |
| Gregor3000 | yes, it doesn't support your card | 13:30 |
| guest233223 | Hi. | 13:34 |
| guest233223 | I am looking at a usb3 graphics card. | 13:34 |
| guest233223 | Has anyone here tried one of those on linux? | 13:34 |
| k00pa | hahahaa | 13:35 |
| k00pa | you sure want to shoot yourself in the foot | 13:35 |
| guest233223 | ? | 13:36 |
| k00pa | Gregor3000: well now I am getting some call trace's... I assume it failed to install it | 13:37 |
| k00pa | (happening while the install was going) | 13:37 |
| Gregor3000 | k00pa: are you doing manual install? are the kernels and other dependencies satisfied? | 13:38 |
| Gregor3000 | guest233223: why USB card? | 13:39 |
| tar_ball | I need to administrate my ubuntu installation remotely(on same network) is there any tool which will provide me GUI ? | 13:39 |
| k00pa | Gregor3000: no idea, I just ran the installer in the root recovery prompt | 13:39 |
| k00pa | latest ubuntu and shit | 13:39 |
| Gregor3000 | guest233223: you can probably get the whole PC cheaper than that :-) | 13:39 |
| Wulf | tar_ball: would a fully automated install work for you? | 13:39 |
| guest233223 | Gregor3000: My laptop makes connecting a pci express card quite difficult. | 13:39 |
| guest233223 | I don't even know if there is an available pci-express solder pad, even if I managed to open it. | 13:40 |
| Gregor3000 | guest233223: so laptops card/chip is not working? | 13:40 |
| guest233223 | It is, but I want to use 2 monitors with it. | 13:41 |
| tar_ball | Wulf : not installation but use it remotely , any other tool then ssh which will provide me gui | 13:41 |
| Wulf | tar_ball: you can control the gui with rdp + vnc | 13:42 |
| rypervenche | tar_ball: Does your server use a GUI? | 13:42 |
| pi___ | mpc stop | 13:42 |
| pi___ | quit | 13:42 |
| pi___ | exit | 13:43 |

| pi___ | quit | 13:43 |
| rypervenche | tar_ball: Err, your Ubuntu installation that will be remote. | 13:43 |
| rypervenche | pi___: /quit | 13:43 |
| Gregor3000 | guest233223: they have USb cards, not sure what their linux support is. they should be good enough for some office work | 13:43 |
| tar_ball | rypervenche: i want to install it on my raspberry pi and use it on my laptop sue to lack of screen on pi | 13:43 |
| Gregor3000 | guest233223: otherwise usually laptiops usually have an external port. | 13:43 |
| rypervenche | tar_ball: Which OS will you be installing on the Pi? | 13:44 |
| guest233223 | Gregor3000: I have a single hdmi port. | 13:44 |
| Gregor3000 | k00pa: nvidia added support for this chip only a few weeks ago. | 13:44 |
| guest233223 | Why lenovo decided to go with hdmi instead of dp is beyond me. | 13:44 |
| tar_ball | rypervenche: raspbian debian based | 13:44 |
| tar_ball | Wulf: can you tell me full name of this software | 13:45 |
| k00pa | how to kill x server | 13:45 |
| Wulf | tar_ball: xrdp | 13:45 |
| tar_ball | rypervenche: https://www.raspbian.org/ | 13:46 |
| rypervenche | tar_ball: Are you booting the Pi into GUI mode or not? | 13:46 |
| Wulf | tar_ball: and x11vnc | 13:46 |
| tar_ball | rypervenche: it will boot into gui mote | 13:46 |
| tar_ball | mode* | 13:46 |
| rypervenche | tar_ball: Then you should use VNC. I personally use x11vnc as my server and remmina as my client. | 13:47 |
| tar_ball | rypervenche: x11vnc will be installed on server and remmina on client ? | 13:49 |
| rypervenche | tar_ball: Yes. You can run something like: x11vnc -display :0 -forever (for the server) | 13:50 |
| poeticrpm | ok, reaching out to ubuntu land since I cant find the answer anywhere in debian land. Does anyone have ubuntu installed on a luks encrypted partition? Can someone tell me what they have in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules? Im trying to figure out how to generate an initramfs capable of handling the encrypted partition. On Arch one needs 'encrypt' in modules of /etc/mkinitcpio.conf. On debians wiki they mention "aes_i586', but im assuming thats for a 32 | 13:50 |
| poeticrpm | bit install. I dont know if I should use 'aes_amd64', 'aes_x86_64', etc etc. | 13:50 |
| BluesKaj_ | Hiyas all | 13:50 |
| tar_ball | rypervenche: will it work if i boot my server into console mode and use it on client? | 13:51 |
| rypervenche | tar_ball: In order to be able to use VNC, the server must have a GUI running on it. So if you only boot into console mode, there will be no GUI running. | 13:52 |
| tar_ball | rypervenche: thanks will reach out again if needed help | 13:53 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | I got sick and tired of ubuntu endless problems so I downloaded Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-24-1.2.iso then I cut/paste it on external hdd. | 14:03 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | somehow the process was interrupted and it rendered the iso file no longer useful | 14:03 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | I'm now wondering about the cut paste mechanism and how safe the data is | 14:04 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | I suposed the original source file should remain intact until the copy on target device is verfied | 14:04 |
| MonkeyDust | LJHSLDJHSDLJH how is your question ubuntu related | 14:05 |
| k00pa | Gregor3000: thanks man, feels like it started to work now | 14:07 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | MonkeyDust: you tell me when you know that I'm already doing all the mentioned above stuff using ubuntu 16.04 | 14:07 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | one more nice stuff I just found now ... the history is not listing the wget command I used to spend all day yesterday downloading this fedora iso! | 14:08 |
| poeticrpm | LJHSLDJHSDLJH, try using cp or rsync to copy the file over | 14:09 |
| MonkeyDust | i was thinking the same: rsync | 14:09 |
| poeticrpm | LJHSLDJHSDLJH, but wait- are you trying to boot from the external drive or just copy the ISO there? | 14:09 |
| poeticrpm | if just copying it over, rsync is what id use. Its painless | 14:09 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | poeticrpm: that is a good advice thanks ... why file manager or linux kernel or whatever thing controlling the cut paste process is not implementating the same safety in rsync? | 14:10 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | that is my question | 14:10 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | poeticrpm: I (was) just cutting/pasting on external hdd | 14:10 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | now I will have to REdownload the iso file | 14:11 |
| MonkeyDust | LJHSLDJHSDLJH next time, copy/paste, not cut/paste, so at least you keep the original | 14:11 |
| poeticrpm | LJHSLDJHSDLJH, im just going to say this: since starting ubuntu 6.10 edgy eft, I have never had an errant copy from a linux file-manager. This isnt a linux problem. Maybe your install iso got corrupted in download or its a hardware issue, or- just like any OS can have happen- something went really crazy wild wrong | 14:11 |
| poeticrpm | I bet the chances of that happening again are worse than winning the lottery | 14:12 |
| poeticrpm | LJHSLDJHSDLJH, and Ive tried prolly 40 distros in my day some right on the bleeding edge | 14:12 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | MonkeyDust: I'm not sure why I didn't think of it! I'm really stupid :) | 14:13 |
| MonkeyDust | LJHSLDJHSDLJH you're not, but learning new things can be frustrating | 14:13 |
| poeticrpm | MonkeyDust, it could have been that the download itself was corrupted. | 14:14 |
| Phenx | who has a link that has the good instructions for install ubuntu> | 14:14 |
| poeticrpm | so copy/paste wouldnt have helped | 14:14 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | poeticrpm: it was hdd cable issue, but ubuntu should be to prevent such data loss | 14:14 |
| Phenx | with ISO to USB flash install method? | 14:14 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | the original file should remain intact until the paste process is completed (successfully) | 14:14 |
| MonkeyDust | Phenx thus: download .iso - put .isoon usb/dvd - boot from usb/dvd - follow instructions | 14:14 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | which is not the case (currently) | 14:14 |
| Phenx | MonkeyDust: whats that? | 14:15 |
| poeticrpm | LJHSLDJHSDLJH, i suppose thats a problem :D | 14:15 |
| MonkeyDust | Phenx that's how you install ubuntu | 14:15 |
| poeticrpm | I think the general assumption is that once data problems starts happening---> have a backup | 14:15 |
| poeticrpm | because no software can completely predict hardware failures | 14:16 |
| poeticrpm | im sure windows might have some fallback, but typically ive seen windows fail much harder with hardware problems | 14:16 |
| poeticrpm | so its sort of a tossup | 14:16 |
| ducasse | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: it _will_ work if you copy+paste+delete original instead of cut+paste. | 14:16 |
| Phenx | u guys sure? | 14:17 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | poeticrpm: no one is asking for HW failure predection, it happened during the trasfer process, thus it's reality for the pasting algorithm | 14:17 |
| Phenx | ive never ran into as many issues with installing windows EVER | 14:17 |
| Phenx | idk maybe its my method | 14:17 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | ducasse: that is true but it's not what was intending to do .. I wanted to cut/paste | 14:18 |
| MonkeyDust | Phenx start from the beginning, what brings you here | 14:18 |
| Phenx | eh | 14:18 |
| Phenx | MonkeyDust: im making a company with a few friends. our first computer came in | 14:18 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | so I suppose the ubuntu people should provide a decent cut/paste procedure or remove it and keep it you mentioned copy/paste/dalete | 14:18 |
| Phenx | we have no windows OS | 14:18 |
| Phenx | so i decide to install Ubuntu | 14:19 |
| Phenx | i am .net mainly | 14:19 |
| Phenx | c# | 14:19 |
| poeticrpm | Phenx, it depends. I just recently installed windows 7 on this laptop from scratch. My computer didnt come with a windows 7 driver cd. NIGHTMARE to get all the hardware working. In fact, impossible without a linux distro to at least get my wireless or ethernet drivers. | 14:19 |
| Phenx | but trying to get into understanding linux | 14:19 |
| Phenx | because i am the CTO | 14:19 |
| Phenx | i need to start us off right | 14:19 |
| poeticrpm | Phenx, OTOH, with a driver disk, windows is about as easy as ubuntu (almost). | 14:19 |
| MonkeyDust | !manual | Phenx hope this is useful | 14:20 |
| ubottu | Phenx hope this is useful: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 14:20 |
| Phenx | poeticrpm: welll yea that does make sense for sure | 14:20 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | hehehe Fedora is not doing the linux experience any less stupid than ubuntu | 14:21 |
| Phenx | well i have 3 machines now basically | 14:21 |
| poeticrpm | LJHSLDJHSDLJH, i suppose that is an issue that could be raised- not sure the neckbeards would 'fix' it though. Still, this isnt really a linux problem. Its more like a problem of the DE that you used to do the cut/paste | 14:21 |
| MonkeyDust | Phenx this is to encourage you : http://insights.ubuntu.com/category/case-studies?topic=desktop | 14:22 |
| Phenx | 1 work, 1 home (also work), 1 for my startup | 14:22 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | they fail to put the hash of their iso file in an obvious place on the website .. I have to search every corner to get the hash file | 14:22 |
| Phenx | al microsoft | 14:22 |
| poeticrpm | LJHSLDJHSDLJH, try xubuntu | 14:22 |
| Phenx | but i want to get a linux server going | 14:22 |
| Phenx | i made my flash drive with ubuntu 16.04 | 14:22 |
| Phenx | tonight | 14:22 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | poeticrpm: do you think it's a file manager problem? | 14:22 |
| Phenx | so i can start working out some kinks and creating our API | 14:22 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | will try to reproduce the same error while cutting/pasting from terminal | 14:23 |
| poeticrpm | LJHSLDJHSDLJH, as I havent looked into the code, I cant say for sure. I dont want to try to make excuses, but I *think*- that is it seems to me- it would HAVE to be the file managers issue | 14:23 |
| Phenx | for some reason im thinking using linux would be a good thing but our app will be in asp.net MVC | 14:23 |
| Phenx | idk i just am exploring | 14:23 |
| poeticrpm | Phenx, best server is debian stable IMO. I like xubuntu as a desktop OS :D | 14:24 |
| Phenx | please make arguments for installing and dedicating one of our machines to linux/ubuntu/someflavor... | 14:24 |
| MonkeyDust | Phenx safety/speed/cost | 14:25 |
| poeticrpm | Phenx, of course right now im installing debian from within arch using debootstrap et all :P xubuntu I have as a backup currently | 14:25 |
| Phenx | Like what about configuration? Will there be probs? I'll be back in a min | 14:26 |
| Phenx | smoking cig | 14:26 |
| poeticrpm | Phenx, the linux community isnt really the type to try and "win over the customer." Its here if you decide the choice is right for you | 14:26 |
| ducasse | Phenx: what you install is _your_ decision, we're not going to convince you. | 14:26 |

| a_pat | Can someone help me to install Nvidia drivers on Ubuntu 14.04.4 ? I've installed 367 and 361 but when I boot up and there is the login screen I listen only the login sound, all screen is black | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj_ | a_pat, which nvidia gpu? | 14:31 |
| a_pat | BluesKaj_: Gt740m | 14:31 |
| BluesKaj_ | is this a hybrid gpu system with intel and nvidia? | 14:32 |
| baizon | BluesKaj_: yep, most lenovo laptops | 14:32 |
| Phenx | ducasse: i just want to know what are the benefits of getting into linux | 14:32 |
| a_pat | BluesKaj_: yes I have intel DD4000 and the other gt740m | 14:32 |
| Phenx | i have worked on ubuntu at work | 14:33 |
| BluesKaj_ | not mine baizon | 14:33 |
| baizon | BluesKaj_: ups, sorry didnt know the context | 14:33 |
| Phenx | but only briefly | 14:33 |
| a_pat | BluesKaj_: HD4000* | 14:33 |
| Phenx | then they got me doing .net stuff c# for the last 6 months | 14:33 |
| Phenx | and thats what they want me to do | 14:33 |
| ducasse | Phenx: that's not really a support question, which is what we do here. ask in ##linux or #ubuntu-offtopic | 14:33 |
| Phenx | BUT | 14:34 |
| Phenx | i am starting a company with some friends | 14:34 |
| Phenx | ducasse: linux seems dead | 14:34 |
| Phenx | atm | 14:34 |
| Phenx | i hear you though | 14:35 |
| BluesKaj_ | Phenx, which linux OSs are recommended by "they"? | 14:35 |
| ducasse | Phenx: ##linux - with two hash marks. it's not dead. | 14:35 |
| Phenx | BluesKaj_: we were on ubuntu at my current job a while back | 14:35 |
| monkey_master | Oh, I thought you were saying linux the OS was dead. | 14:36 |
| Phenx | but we all switched to MS as thats who we are doing most of our integration with | 14:36 |
| BluesKaj_ | Phenx, then start with what you know | 14:36 |
| monkey_master | Like someone killed the penguin. | 14:36 |

| Phenx | its not doing anything | 14:41 |
| Phenx | stuck at install (as supervisor) | 14:41 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | well, now I'm afraid that the problem is bigger than just losing a single iso file, as the entire external hdd start showing data transfer problems. e.g. the distination folder of which the cut/paste process was interrupted, seems to have lost all other iso files in it | 14:41 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | I get Input/output error | 14:42 |

| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | ducasse: there is bunch of them as shown above, but what does that mean and how it should be fixed? | 14:45 |

| jim__ | UUggggaa!! what is this with everyone using this "thing" called "nano"! doesn't anybody us the basic "vi" editor any more? | 14:51 |
| yeats | Phenx: you should be able to do Alt-F key for the different TTYs - if you're installing with the ncurses/text installer, log messages will be on tty4 | 14:52 |
| ducasse | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: those look like they might be problems communicating with the controller in the external drive. | 14:53 |
| yeats | jim__: nano is configured to be the default text editor on most distros nowadays | 14:53 |
| Phenx | yeats: hmm altf not working | 14:54 |
| yeats | Phenx: are you in the GUI installer? | 14:54 |
| Phenx | ppl at other chatroom making fun of me for fucking up ubuntu install | 14:54 |
| Phenx | lol | 14:54 |
| ducasse | Phenx: ctrl+alt+f1 to f6 | 14:54 |
| Phenx | yeats: yea its been going for an hour and half stuck on a screen | 14:54 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | ducasse: are there any previous cases of people committing suicide because of data loss? | 14:54 |
| Phenx | i have given it enough time | 14:54 |
| Phenx | i think i failed | 14:54 |
| ducasse | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: many, i'm sure. that's why we have backups. ;) | 14:55 |
| Phenx | ctrl+alt+f1 to f6 WORKED | 14:55 |
| yeats | Phenx: ok - do *Ctrl*-Alt-F1 through F6 (as ducasse suggests) - Ctrl-Alt-F7 takes you back to the GUI | 14:55 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | ducasse: I think have to start believing in RAID | 14:55 |
| jim__ | I mean "vi" and "unix" of any kind is synonymous with each other, its almost sacrilegious to think of "unix" with out "vi".... from now on I shall refer to "nano" as the "unholy editor". ;^} | 14:55 |
| ducasse | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: raid is not a backup :) | 14:55 |
| Phenx | yeats: im on a weird command line | 14:56 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | is it mirroring? | 14:56 |
| Phenx | nothing is visible | 14:56 |

| narmes | есть кто | 14:56 |
| latitude | anyone have trouble with wifi drop outs with ubuntu 16.04 | 14:56 |
| Phenx | help doesnt do anything | 14:56 |
| ducasse | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: raid gives you redundancy, but it doesn't protect you from accidental deletions, for example. | 14:56 |
| yeats | Phenx: you're in BusyBox, which is basically a stripped down version of bash | 14:57 |
| Phenx | yeats: what can i do? | 14:57 |
| narmes | ребят подскажите как настраивается общий доступ с виндой | 14:57 |

| Phenx | i want to get back to GUI, wipe clean everything ive done | 14:57 |
| Phenx | then do fresh install | 14:57 |
| yeats | Phenx: Ctrl-Alt-F7 | 14:57 |
| Phenx | yeats: not wokring | 14:57 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | ducasse: Then are you aware of any charity organization that may donate free backup tapes? lol | 14:58 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | too cheap to invest in those | 14:58 |
| yeats | Phenx: you should be able to do 'sudo shutdown -r now' which will kill everything running and reboot | 14:58 |
| W_Wilson|pc-work | lo | 14:58 |
| ducasse | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: you can use a disk for backup, that's what most people do. | 14:59 |
| yeats | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: you get what you pay for :-) | 14:59 |
| Phenx | not working | 14:59 |
| Phenx | lol | 14:59 |
| Phenx | i think my iso on the flash might be sucky | 14:59 |
| Phenx | im going to redo it | 14:59 |
| Phenx | i guess | 14:59 |
| ducasse | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: my important data is on a zfs mirror, backed up to a separate drive on a remote host. | 15:00 |
| yeats | Phenx: if it's that frozen, you may have to do a hard power off (hold power button for 5 seconds) | 15:00 |
| Phenx | yeats: ahh | 15:00 |
| Phenx | is there nowhere to get cracked versions of windows 10? | 15:01 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | Phenx: sometimes kick the crap of the computer case so the problems | 15:01 |
| yeats | Phenx: wrong channel | 15:01 |
| Phenx | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: my case is new though | 15:01 |
| Phenx | not an option | 15:01 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | ducasse: I think it could be mounting RO problem with this usb hdd | 15:01 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | Phenx: my hdd is new too, but that doesn't prevent it from acting weird | 15:02 |
| Phenx | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: i used the recommended resource | 15:02 |
| LJHSLDJHSDLJH | brb | 15:02 |
| ducasse | LJHSLDJHSDLJH: the file system might be corrupted, see if fsck can fix it. | 15:02 |
| Phenx | to make my Flash ISO | 15:02 |
| Phenx | im restarting | 15:03 |
| Phenx | i have brand new computer | 15:03 |
| Phenx | should i make my boot mode UEFI only? | 15:04 |
| Phenx | in bios? | 15:04 |
| jim__ | phenx: the best thing I like about UEFI is that I no longer have to use the disk layout of 3-primary partitions with an "extended" partition, that has all gone away. | 15:10 |
| jim__ | happy day | 15:10 |
| Zacharee1 | GPT is the best for sure | 15:10 |
| Phenx | Zacharee1: why u say that? | 15:12 |
| Zacharee1 | what? | 15:12 |
| jim__ | Phenx: GPT allows for something like 126 partitions of a disk, no primary or extended junk involved | 15:15 |
| Phenx | jim__: do you know hwat the default is for ubuntu install? | 15:15 |
| jim__ | depends on if you choose BIOS or UEFI | 15:15 |
| Phenx | jim__: because im assuming if you do GPT that means you are doing custom partitions? | 15:15 |
| Phenx | welll the "something else" option | 15:16 |
| jim__ | BIOS supports "MBR" and UEFI supports GPT | 15:17 |

| Phenx | when u install ubuntu | 15:18 |

| Phenx | i want to see the machine doing tings when im installing | 15:18 |
| Phenx | this mofo | 15:19 |
| jim__ | take a look at the differences of MBR vs GPT, a nice primer is at this site "http://www.howtogeek.com/193669/whats-the-difference-between-gpt-and-mbr-when-partitioning-a-drive/" | 15:20 |

| Phenx | stuck on intro to install | 15:23 |
| Phenx | wtf | 15:23 |
| Phenx | everytime | 15:23 |
| jim__ | Phenx: Windows can only boot from GPT on UEFI-based computers running 64-bit versions of Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista, and corresponding server versions. All versions of Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7, and Vista can read GPT drives and use them for data — they just can’t boot from them without UEFI. Other modern operating systems can also use GPT. Linux has built-in support for GPT. Apple’s Intel Macs no longer use Apple’s APT (Apple Partit | 15:25 |
| jim__ | ion Table) scheme and use GPT instead. | 15:25 |

| ufc222 | yes | 15:34 |

| Phenx | wow | 15:36 |
| Phenx | http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ | 15:36 |
| Phenx | i just realized i got hte 64 version | 15:36 |
| Phenx | instead of the 32 bit-PC | 15:36 |
| Phenx | version | 15:36 |
| Phenx | didnt read the instrucitions lol | 15:36 |
| crafty1 | ufc222: This bug may be relevant. The fix was to downgrade chromeOS and reinstall https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton/issues/1978 | 15:36 |
| Phenx | no wonder it doesnt like my computer | 15:36 |
| irinix | *sigh* with all the advanced things that linux gets oh so right, | 15:38 |
| irinix | why can't it get basic things like wireless networking? | 15:38 |
| Phenx | irinix: linux is good at networking though i thouhgt | 15:38 |
| Phenx | that is one of the reasons i want to use | 15:38 |
| Phenx | or maybe its just wireless that suffers? | 15:39 |
| irinix | Phenx, ime wired networking is solid as gold | 15:39 |
| irinix | but wireless is always a turkeyshoot | 15:39 |
| irinix | *crapshoot | 15:39 |
| akik | irinix: it's because of wireless manufacturers don't care about linux | 15:39 |
| Phenx | irinix: well idk if thats ok depending on the situation | 15:40 |
| Phenx | but yea that kinda blows | 15:40 |
| irinix | akik, sorry, I'm just griping because | 15:40 |
| crafty1 | The Atheros chipset is one of the only chipsets with FOSS drivers | 15:40 |
| irinix | my wifi went from working great, to totally crapping out on me the other day | 15:40 |
| akik | irinix: i undeerstand. it was the same with my new acer laptop. but it only needed the firmware.bin file to make it work | 15:40 |
| irinix | crafty1, yeah, Atheros has been good to us since the beginning | 15:41 |
| crafty1 | Doesn't Ubuntu support most wireless chipets by using the non-free drivers if necessary? | 15:41 |
| akik | irinix: ok maybe a different situation than yours. wifi has been working good ever since i got it working | 15:41 |
| crafty1 | My current card isnt Atheros and works fine :/ | 15:42 |
| irinix | *sigh* when I'm elected queen b**** of the universe, my first edict will be to mandate foss | 15:42 |
| irinix | crafty1, yeah, the intel drivers aren't there. I downloaded the latest firmware from intel when I did the install etc etc., and it had been working great | 15:42 |
| irinix | until suddenly, it decided not too | 15:42 |
| irinix | and for no reason that I can see. (No added software etc etc) | 15:43 |
| irinix | And it works fine from windows | 15:43 |
| irinix | so.... | 15:43 |
| jim__ | Phenx: earlier you stated that you had a brand new computer.... but that new computer has a 32-bit CPU?? This must be a new used computer. | 15:44 |
| Phenx | jim__: it is new | 15:44 |
| jim__ | Interesting, I didn't think you could buy a new 32-bit CPU any more. | 15:45 |
| Phenx | its 64 bit | 15:46 |
| Phenx | but the dl i got confused on | 15:46 |
| Phenx | idk' | 15:46 |
| Phenx | i gave up and went back to my asp project | 15:46 |
| Phenx | i dont want to read | 15:46 |
| Phenx | lol | 15:47 |
| Phenx | too drunk | 15:47 |
| akik | Phenx: you gave up because the download was too confusing? | 15:47 |
| Phenx | akik: na its a long story | 15:47 |
| Phenx | bascially i was just fucking around with dling ubuntu for just tonight casue we dont have an operating system for this dev machine yet | 15:47 |
| Phenx | and i put the ISO on my flash drive | 15:47 |
| Phenx | tried to install it | 15:47 |
| Phenx | the comp didnt want to cooperate | 15:48 |
| Phenx | bascially | 15:48 |
| Phenx | it doesnt even respond | 15:48 |
| Phenx | when i select install ubunut | 15:48 |
| Phenx | it gets to gui | 15:48 |
| Phenx | and 90 percent the time the keyboard does nothing | 15:48 |
| akik | Phenx: please don't use enter as your punctuation | 15:48 |
| Phenx | and i got lucky a few times earlier and it worked but then it would fail in install or lock up... | 15:49 |
| Phenx | sory | 15:49 |
| akik | Phenx: have you identified the problem with your hardware? | 15:49 |
| tatertots | irinix your wireless isn't working eh? | 15:50 |
| Phenx | akik: i meanm its all brand new for our company, but.... i spilled beer on the keyboard a few mins ago | 15:50 |
| Phenx | and its a cheap keyboard | 15:50 |
| irinix | tatertots, yes | 15:50 |
| akik | Phenx: maybe you shouldn't drink beer while working | 15:50 |
| tatertots | irinix did you get the proper modules loaded and all that good stuff? | 15:50 |
| irinix | tatertots, of course | 15:51 |
| irinix | every thing I've done is on ubuntuForums and answers.ubuntu | 15:51 |
| Phenx | akik: the problem is that i havent slept | 15:51 |
| Phenx | not the beer.. | 15:51 |
| irinix | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2330153 | 15:51 |
| Phenx | well the beer played a role | 15:51 |
| tatertots | irinix did your wlan adapter work from livecd/liveusb similar to the original poster of the forum you posted above?, did anyone help you identify/confirm your wlan adapter and confirm the modules were loading on bootup? | 15:53 |
| irinix | tatertots, I don't need that assistance. Yes my modules load during boot up. Yes I'm 100% certain that my card is an intel centrino ultimate n 6320 because I've physically seen it | 15:55 |
| irinix | no, it did not work from the live cd | 15:55 |
| tatertots | oh ok | 15:55 |
| irinix | yes, it did work from live usb once I had copied iwlwifi to the ramfs /bin/firmware | 15:55 |
| irinix | etc., etc., | 15:56 |
| irinix | sorry if I'm salty, I've spent ~15 years in IT support | 15:57 |
| irinix | so...when I can't fix a problem I tend to be crusty about it. =( | 15:57 |

| debidi | when did github turn into a pastebin.. ? | 16:04 |
| akik | mustmodify_: you have plenty of space in the root file system. maybe that was commented earlier | 16:05 |
| mustmodify_ | debidi: not sure. Initially I thought it was dumb. But there aren't any ads. They use git to do it, I guess. | 16:05 |

| mustmodify_ | debidi: What's your question? I don't see /proc/mounts | 16:07 |
| mustmodify_ | this isn't a virtual fs. Or, at least, I would be surprised if it were. :) | 16:08 |
| akik | mustmodify_: /proc is if that's what you meant | 16:08 |
| debidi | i mean, paste the contents of /proc/mounts (same as output from mount command) | 16:09 |
| mustmodify_ | I see. | 16:09 |

| ducasse | gevs: you have two screens connected to a discrete card and one to onboard? | 17:18 |
| gevs | yep | 17:18 |

| gevs | sorry... back :) | 17:24 |
| ducasse | gevs: the x driver can only see the two screens connected to the discrete adapter, as far as x is concerned the third screen does not exist. i don't think you can run an x server split over two gpus. | 17:25 |
| gevs | you must be right | 17:25 |
| gevs | i just "ctrl + alt + 2" - my 3rd screen displayed a terminal - both others screen show blank | 17:26 |
| gevs | damn | 17:26 |
| ducasse | gevs: i'm not sure, though, but i imagine that would require two separate x servers, but the necessary modules can probably not be loaded at the same time. | 17:26 |
| gevs | disappointing :( guess i must buy a new graphic card then | 17:27 |
| ducasse | gevs: what outputs does the card have? | 17:27 |
| gevs | onboard 1 vga + 1 dvi + 1 hdmi pcie 2 dvi | 17:28 |
| ducasse | gevs: yes, you can run three screens onboard or two on the discrete. sorry :-/ | 17:29 |
| gevs | haha yeah well maybe ill have a look at "3 screens onboard" since my motherboard allows it .. but figured having the graphics card take 2 monitors off it would take me less ram :) | 17:29 |
| gevs | thanks for the try | 17:30 |
| ducasse | gevs: i've got no other suggestions. i mean, you can _try_ running two x servers, but they wouldn't function as one desktop. | 17:31 |

| Bashing-om | ShotokanZH: For a gamming machine you want the proprietary graphic's driver . As Nvidia recommends the 367 version, we get that one from our trusted PPA . | 20:23 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, ok! | 20:23 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, apt-get install nvidia-current ? | 20:24 |
| Bashing-om | ShotokanZH: ' sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa ; sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install nvidia-367 ; sudo reboot ' . Let's see what we have on the other side . | 20:25 |
| FunkyELF | anyone here running on the Dell XPS 13 non-developer edition. I'm wondering if there is really any difference bewtween developer and non-developer editions. I think I'd rather get it with Windows 10 and dual boot into Ubutnu | 20:25 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, dude if i reboot everything will be broken again | 20:26 |
| ShotokanZH | i haven't managed to install kubuntu YET | 20:26 |
| ShotokanZH | i'm still in the live! | 20:26 |
| akik | FunkyELF: i doubt there's anything different with the hardware. but on ubuntu side there is dell provided software packages | 20:27 |
| Bashing-om | ShotokanZH: Then, we are back to booting the installer with "nomoeset" . See what results in the " try ubuntu" mode . | 20:29 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, it does crash in nomodeset too | 20:29 |
| ShotokanZH | i'm currently with nomodeset added | 20:29 |
| ShotokanZH | and the only thing i can do is command line | 20:30 |
| eelstrebor | why isn't my system booting to the correct vmlinuz? | 20:30 |
| Bashing-om | ShotokanZH: Ouch, sorry but above my skill set at this point if we can not get a GUI on the live mode . | 20:30 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, i guess i've done *something* | 20:31 |
| ShotokanZH | i installed the drivers and killed Xorg | 20:31 |
| ShotokanZH | it started "kind of ok" | 20:31 |
| ShotokanZH | i mean, graphics sucks but i am now in the installation phase :O | 20:32 |
| ShotokanZH | i guess i someohow did it \o/ | 20:32 |
| Bashing-om | eelstrebor: Compare ' ls -al /vmlinuz* ; ls -al /initrd* ' with the installed kernels ' ls -al /boot ' . | 20:34 |
| eelstrebor | yep, that's what my problem is - wrong vmlinuz and initrd.img - redirecting the soft link with ln -s fixed the problem - i don't understand why update-grub didn't properly set this | 20:34 |
| OerHeks | eelstrebor, tell us what you installed, or did before this happened? | 20:34 |
| Bashing-om | ShotokanZH: Great ! so long as you are able to install the operating system .. we can install the graphic's driver after the install completes . | 20:35 |
| OerHeks | 9/10 times the user did something manually, and refuses to mention in the question. | 20:35 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, problem #2 | 20:36 |
| ShotokanZH | kubuntu does not seem to be able to find the M2 SSD | 20:36 |
| eelstrebor | OerHeks, i decided to upgrade to the latest stable kernel from kernel.org - i believe that i followed the correct instructions for building and installing the new kernel | 20:36 |
| ShotokanZH | gparted finds only /dev/sda (a 'data' hard-drive, 1TB) and /dev/sdb (the pendrive, 60GB) | 20:36 |
| eelstrebor | but, since there are various methods on the web, who knows? | 20:37 |
| Bashing-om | ShotokanZH: Yuk .. does bios see the M2 device ?, and what does the kernel see from ' sudo parted -l ' ? | 20:37 |
| OerHeks | eelstrebor, no help with that, use the kernels from mainline, those are build for ubuntu | 20:37 |
| OerHeks | !mainline | 20:37 |
| ubottu | The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds | 20:37 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, the bios does totally see it, and windows runs fine in it | 20:37 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, same as gparted | 20:37 |
| eelstrebor | OerHeks, i'm trying to build a custom kernel in order to use dvb utilities with my dvb card (such as a spectrum analyzer) | 20:38 |
| eelstrebor | it requires a higher kernel to do so | 20:38 |
| Daekdroom | Is it possible to use different icon themes for GTK2 and GTK3 apps in Ubuntu? | 20:38 |
| Bashing-om | ShotokanZH: I must now surmise that Windows uses the device as a " fast start" in that the device is raided ...I do not do Windows, and have no idea - if this is the case - how to make the 2 co-exist . | 20:39 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, *sighs* i guess pregnancy it's more or less like that. | 20:40 |
| ShotokanZH | xD | 20:40 |
| Bashing-om | ShotokanZH: I am sure there are ways .. but O would not want the responsibility of breaking your Windos install to make ubuntu work . I am no longer Windows' literate . | 20:42 |
| Soul_Sample | is there a way to update nautilus in ubuntu 16.04 without installing a bunch of additional cruft and potentially breaking the whole desktop? | 20:55 |
| Kirito_ | When installing Ubuntu on a laptop with Intel FakeRAID (in a RAID 0 configuration), I can get Ubuntu to install without issue, but after restarting grub does not appear to recognize the RAID devices and thus falls back to its emergency shell. | 20:58 |
| VonBlume | i need an expert in kali i can pay | 20:59 |
| hammer25 | OerHeks: that link you sent me a couple days ago did the trick. turns out my laptop had a small SSD used for caching, disabling that feature let ubuntu install normally. thanks! | 21:00 |

| r3za | hey guys , im trying to open bash script with crone at specific time , it works great but i dunno how to close the script in specific time .. any help ? | 21:38 |
| geirha | your script runs "forever"? | 21:38 |
| geirha | anyway, timeout may be an option, but it depends on what the script is doing | 21:40 |
| geirha | you may need to edit the script to make this reliable | 21:42 |

| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, so, apparently due to several thousands users bashing their heads on the wall asus released a BIOS update (216) to enable the DGPU | 21:46 |
| r3za | geirha: i wrote the script by myself , its gonna upload files to google drive , but i want to stop uploading in specific time , i dunno how to manage that | 21:48 |
| SchrodingersScat | r3za: like mentioned, if you know the start time you can have timeout wait x seconds and then kill it. | 21:51 |
| r3za | SchrodingersScat: how can i kill it ? | 21:52 |
| r3za | i think this is the better question | 21:52 |
| SchrodingersScat | r3za: that's what timeout does, man timeout. | 21:53 |
| geirha | timeout -s TERM 10m yourscript | 21:53 |
| r3za | SchrodingersScat: sorry , got it | 21:53 |
| r3za | geirha: thanks | 21:53 |
| geirha | make sure you include -s TERM, because it sends SIGKILL by default | 21:54 |
| SchrodingersScat | r3za: there's also bash internals you can use where you background the command and then loop a test for $SECONDS being over the duration. | 21:54 |
| r3za | SchrodingersScat: thats what i got from your words , start uploading in background "&" and then put a while for checking end time , right ? | 21:56 |
| SchrodingersScat | r3za: yeah, this is an example from one of my scripts, SECONDS=0; while (( "$SECONDS" < "$dur" )) ; do echo "stuff you want to do while process runs goes here" ; sleep "$sleepy" ; let sleepy=$RANDOM%60 ; done | 21:57 |
| SchrodingersScat | r3za: where $dur = the time duration in seconds that you want the backgrounded job to run | 21:58 |
| SchrodingersScat | r3za: catch the background pid with pid=$! ; then you can kill it how you want after that loop | 22:00 |
| r3za | SchrodingersScat: im testing the code , let me check that one | 22:01 |
| SchrodingersScat | r3za: I mostly needed it because I needed to add an extra test other than duration, so it was two tests for the while loop, lets you get more creative. | 22:07 |
| apavlov | Hey, I'm trying to debug an "immediate resume after suspend" issue on my desktop (Z170-A, i7 with integrated videocard) running 16.04. It seems to have emerged after some recent update (not more than a few weeks ago). Hopefully, I have excluded the USB and DRM as reasons. dmesg and analyze_suspend.py don't seem to have uncovered anything obvious (to my eye). Any ideas/pointers appreciated. | 22:09 |
| Bashing-om | ShotokanZH: Well.... not the 1st time I have seen that a bios upgrade is needed . Will be interested to know if this is the fix . | 22:17 |
| ShotokanZH | Bashing-om, apparently, nope | 22:18 |
