_unreal_thingfish, I'm just comming in, but there are some harddrive settings in the bios that could cause that00:18

_unreal_they are tiny00:21
reisio2x2x2 cube? I can imagine00:21
_unreal_yep :)00:21
reisioI'm guessing a pi zero is smaller, though00:21
reisioand probably something else smaller than that :p00:21
_unreal_not sure00:22
reisiosorry that was put badly00:22
_unreal_I've decided I'm going to order an UPboard00:22
reisioa pi zero is smaller00:22

OerHeksyeah00:27
_unreal_ya would be cool to do cad work on a pi cluster00:31
_unreal_dont know how well it would work but prob wouldnt be bad00:31
orlockcool, briefly, then drive you nuts00:31
_unreal_why is that?00:32
orlockwell, depending on the cad work, a lot of its about front end grunt00:32
orlockhigh speed visualisation, etc00:32
_unreal_heh.... would be better then anything I have currently00:32
orlockwe have many CAD people here of all sorts00:33
_unreal_heh poor dog was crying, sun went down and it was dark00:34
orlockNone of them use Pi's00:34
orlockthey all use high end Dell workstations with big screens00:34
_unreal_I'm not planning on doing high end :)00:34
orlocki could see it being handy for cheap cluster/cloud development work00:34

ceggreetings...can i get help here regarding synaptic?01:07
octacianceg: what do you need to know?01:07
cegi only have connections via https or ftp.  i have synaptic tweaked to install programs but it's still not pulling down the pkg screenshots...01:08
cegi'm trying to get it to show me the screenshots01:08
cegi got it working with software manager01:08
=== GitGud is now known as TheRealGitGud
=== TheRealGitGud is now known as GitGud
cegi have to change http references to either https or ftp01:09
octacianceg: this should work by default. Are you using Synaptic with custom settings?01:09
cegbut i can't find where the call to get screenshots resides in the synaptic pkg01:09
cegi've done nothing so far with synaptic...01:09
ceghowever with linux mint nothing works over https01:10
octacianceg: why do you need that? Why don't you just use synaptic normally? I mean a simple apt install synaptic01:10
cegi'll explain again...01:10
cegi cannot connect to http...only https or ftp...01:10
cegsynaptic will not talk over https01:10
octacianOK... well, sadly, that's something a bit beyond my knowledge...01:11
cegapt through the terminal would not work either until i changed the repositories to either https or ftp01:11
octacianIt should use the same repository lists as apt01:11
ceggranted i think https should work once the apt-transport-https is installed however the only linux i've found in which they do work is fedor and it's flavors01:12
cegyes...they all use the same repositories...01:12
cegall 3 will install software since i've changed the repositories to either https or ftp...01:13
cegi got software manager to pull down the screenshots now but i don't know where in synaptic to make the change01:13
cegi can't even seem to find out where synaptic resides in my linux mint folder tree01:13

ax562yeah I just dislike apple as a product, company, and way of life (sheeple)02:15
octacianWine works OK. But you have to have a lot of time to mess with the initial set up of each program.02:15
YankDownUnderVM's work always the best. Easy enough to fix when they're borked, too.02:16
octacianYankDownUnder: I've considered VMs, and can definitely do it now taht I have 8GB of RAM. Haven't figured out the setup though. I wonder how it would do specifically with Unity3D02:17
YankDownUnderoctacian: Try. Experimentation is what gets you ahead, hmm.02:18
ax562but either way...to each is own and thanks for all the help everyone02:18
octacianYankDownUnder: yeah, that's what I'm going to do. I didn't have time before and it didn't seem to work that well when I was trying because I only had 2GB of RAM.02:19
YankDownUnderoctacian: Yeah - 2gb doesn't get you far (at least nowadays)...8gb works great...obviously 16gb is better...32gb is "hot as"...and more than that? Well...ooooo.... :)02:20
ax562I have another question02:21
YankDownUnderax562: Shoot02:22
ax562I went into additional driver and added an amd proprietary driver02:22
ax562now every time i boot my system I get an error message about a bug02:22
ax562and I need to change my drive to quiet mode or update my bios02:22
orlockYankDownUnder: 32G in my new desktop i just installed ubuntu on. Anything with more that that usually ends up in a rack anyway02:22
ax562so I went back into additional drivers02:23
YankDownUnderorlock: :)02:23
ax562and disabled the driver I had enabled02:23
ax562but still the problem persist02:23
ax562any ideas?02:23
YankDownUnderax562: Without know what exactly the error is, it's hard to read minds.02:23
ax562lol02:24
ax562yeah I would have to take a picture of it02:24
ax562let me reboot02:24
ax562brb02:24

_unreal_I'm on an other part of the building processes and its asking me a million questions: make -j5 dtbs02:31
_unreal_lots of yes/no and numbers questions02:31
_unreal_following this guide https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/CuBox02:31
_unreal_is there a way to just make witha ll options? instead of having to answer yes over and over02:31
YankDownUnderax562: Have you followed the suggestions on making the changes in your BIOS and/or upgrading your BIOS?02:31
ax562yeah, i tried changing to quiet mode02:32
ax562but I believe I have the latest bios.02:32
YankDownUnderax562: "I believe..." - you should most likely double-check, bro...it's best to be "absolute", hmm? Else, time gets wasted, energy gets wasted.02:33
ax562this all started when I changed to proprietary drivers in "additional drivers" app02:34
ax562but I changed back to default state of the app but still the problem persist02:34
YankDownUnderax562: Ok...fair enough...here's something to try - to see if THIS might do something...open a terminal, and type: sudo ubuntu-drivers list02:35
ax562unfortuantely my setup right now would require a lot of unpluggin to be able to check the man sticker, unable to do that atm02:35
YankDownUnderax562: Yeah, all good - just follow what I typed above, mate...let's see what we get, hmm?02:36
ax562it returns nothing YankDownUnder02:37
ax562it asks for password02:37
ax562once I put it in, the cursor skips a line and just blinks02:37

YankDownUnderax562: AH...well, there ya have it.02:38
ax562amd64-microcode02:38
ax562that is the bad one02:38
YankDownUnderax562: Don't assume02:38
YankDownUnderax562: So, now that you've achieved that, here's what to try next: IN that same open terminal, type: sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ====> then follow any prompts - and most likely reboot, eh?02:39

ax562it's only installing the suspected package "amd64-microcode02:41

ax562now this time I also get an error in ubuntu while startinig02:50

adam__Hello im having trouble setting up a wifi device is the anyone that could walk me through it?02:51
YankDownUnderax562: Ok...so again, back to the BIOS issue - have you actually updated the BIOS to the latest - as was remarked on earlier?02:51
sacarlson2adam__: any part numbers to provide us?  is the wifi device internal or external02:52
adam__I have a linksys WR702n and I want to use it as a repeater, ive used it before with windows but i recently switched to ubunutu and im having a hard time navigating02:52

adam__Im running ubuntu on a shuttle pc02:53
LOLim running ubuntu on my xbox02:53
ax562can't I just use terminal and uninstall the drivers?02:54
sacarlson2adam__: do you happen to know what the ip address of your linksys is?02:54
YankDownUnderax562: Doesn't matter. Have you looked? Have you checked the "maker's" site? The BIOS maker's site?02:54
adam__And this repeater allows you to take your wifi and then send it through ethernet02:54
ax562yes years ago02:54
LOLdo you all send Bigg ddos attacks?02:54
ax562I would have to check again but I really doubt they are release updates on this machine anymore02:54
LOLBiG JaX does02:54
adam__I do and ive been able to set my ip to access the device and set it up but then after that im not being able to connect through ethernet02:55
YankDownUnderax562: yes, you can remove the drivers just as what we did a few minutes again - wtih the same command. You can see the available options with "sudo ubuntu-drivers --help" -> and therefore you can remove them - which is easier and more efficient.02:55
ax562I'm using the gui atm02:56
ax562I will check the commands and status once it's done02:56
YankDownUnderax562: Fair enough.02:56
sacarlson2adam__: I'm looking for a manual02:57
LOLhello people have you heard of the new ubuntu update?02:59
ax562YankDownUnder is there a way to clear the bug message03:00
ax562I know the driver is not installed anymore but the error message persist03:00
YankDownUnderax562: Have you actually looked through the forums yet - or Googled it yet?03:01

YankDownUnderax562: Is the system asking for a reboot?03:09
ax562no03:10
YankDownUnderax562: So we go back to what was mentioned before about the BIOS update. Hmm. Being that the error is directly concerned with how the BIOS and the kernel interact...03:11
ax562yes but now  I have succeffully uninstalled the driver03:12
ax562but the error message persist03:12
ax562is there a boor error mesage flag I can clear or something?03:12

ax562it's a really old one03:13
ax562looks like it affected many users03:13
ax562and many oems03:13
YankDownUnderax562: Doesn't matter if it's "really old" - the question remains as to whether or not you've actually looked for and installed - AND/OR verified the BIOS for that machine. Either which, open a terminal and please type: sudo apt-autoremove && sudo apt autoclean03:16
ax562done03:19
YankDownUnderax562: So then did those commands cause anything in particular? Remember, I'm blind - I cannot read minds, neither...so you have to communicate what the result was, eh?03:20

Guest61786Hi every one .. i have installed gns3 in my ubuntu desktop using commands in terminal ... i want to uninstall it ... any one can help me ?04:01
ahrc333ffGuest61786: apt-get purge <packagename>04:01
sacarlson2Guest61786:  commands in a terminal is not enuf info.  was it a deb file?04:02
YankDownUnderraitucarp: Have you recently updated the system and cleaned out all the caches? That's my first question.04:02
sacarlson2Guest61786:  and if it was ahrc333ff is correct04:02
Guest61786sacarlson2 , i used these commands "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gns3/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install gns3-gui "04:03
raitucarpYankDownUnder: No, this is fresh install. But I install this ubuntu from usb04:04
sacarlson2Guest61786: sudo apt-get purge gns3-gui04:04
YankDownUnderraitucarp: Ok. So fresh install. Since you've done the fresh installation, and you've booted into the "brand new system", it is wise to immediately "update" and also, make sure all the "third party drivers" are installed - all of which is going to require a reboot, hmm...yeah?04:05
Guest61786sacarlson2 , i want to delet every thing related to gns3 .. not only the gui04:05
ahrc333ffGuest61786: if all you did to install the program was the above line, then the apt-get purge solution will reverse everythign you did.04:06
raitucarpYankDownUnder: yeah, I did it. And there is no problem at all04:06
sacarlson2Guest61786: the purge will remove all system common parts.  if there are files it generated in your /home/user account that might be left behind04:06
YankDownUnderraitucarp: Er...wait a second - so you've done the install, you've already upgraded/updated and installed all the necessary hoo-hah and the likes, and now there is no problem? Is that what you're saying?04:07
glrrfdo software updates require kernel updates too? i.e., can weechat 1.5 update on ubuntu 12.04?04:07

raitucarpYankDownUnder: I install this ubuntu yesterday, and I did update & upgrade too, but after couple of restarting, I figure it out that boot time takes so  loong. I just wonder if someone can help me read dmesg04:08

ubuntu-11_#catacombs04:09
YankDownUnderraitucarp: I've read the log you posted. I'm going step by step. I do not read minds, nor can I see into the past. I'm blind, and therefore I ask, hmm?04:09
glrrfok thanks sacarlson2 :)04:10
raitucarpYankDownUnder: Yeah, np. I just looking for people help me to figure it out what is really going on with my kernel. I will reproduce and paste all logs as much as possible to diagnose this issue.04:11
YankDownUnderraitucarp:  This is why I asked about cleaning out caches and the likes. Have you run: "sudo apt autoremove && sudo apt autoclean" yet ?04:11
raitucarpYankDownUnder: Because AskUbuntu is not realtime. I ask here04:11
raitucarpYankDownUnder: Yeah I did it too04:12
YankDownUnderraitucarp: Right...next - when you reboot the machine, are there any USB devices attached or is there a CD/DVD in the drive...?04:12
raitucarpYankDownUnder: No cd/dvd. Just one usb device which is a SSD hard drive. I did remove it all, and tried rebooting and nothing affected. The boot time still takes a long time04:15
raitucarpYankDownUnder: maybe you are right, this is systemd conspiracies lol04:16
YankDownUnderraitucarp: So even without the USB/SSD attached, the boot is still deathly slow...yes?04:16
raitucarpYankDownUnder: Yap04:16
raitucarpYankDownUnder: or maybe I reinstall this ubuntu with iso burned to dvd instead of usb04:17
YankDownUnderraitucarp: Firstly, if you look through the "blame messages" - it's taking what, bloody 17s to go through temp/caches...???? Right...now that ain't quite right...which is why I intially asked about temp/cache...hmm...04:17

superkuhHi. I use Ubuntu 10.04. Let's not get into why I do and just take it as a personal preference. I know it's out of support. But recently even the archive repositories have disappeared: http://paste.ubuntu.com/19862588/  Did Canonical completely abandon the old OS installs even to the point of removing the archive repos? Or are there others somewhere I can use?04:22
superkuhIf I had known they were going to remove even the archive repos (as opposed to just stopping updates, fixes, etc) I would've mirrored them locally.04:23
raitucarpYankDownUnder: Ok, thanks. I will rebooting and be right back04:23
YankDownUndersuperkuh: If you search, you'll find "archives" out there...trust me, you're not the only human being that's been through this issue, hmm...just a matter of patience and digging.04:23
YankDownUnderraitucarp: Fair enough.04:23
superkuhI'm using the archives though.04:23
superkuhErr http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/universe04:24

YankDownUndersuperkuh: Well, if you're happy with THAT archive, good on ya.04:24
superkuhSo they must be doing something *right now* that has broken them.04:24
superkuhI guess I'll just wait a day or two and see if they fix it.04:25

orlocksuperkuh: Obscure hardware, or you really like the setup?04:26

ax562but fuck that04:35
ax562too much work04:35
YankDownUnderax562: hehehehehe...don't get me started on doing audio/video/media production or engineering...hehehehehehe04:35
ax562well you get on that ;P04:36
ax56250 recordings laters and 101 mixes...it still not right!04:36
ax562If someone knew how to clear that messasge that would be the easiest fix04:37
YankDownUnderax562: Ah! Well, here's something for you to look into, bro! It's called "Hiren's Boot CD" - and it can be installed onto a USB - the version I use for troubleshooting is 9.5 - the XP environment that runs on it is quite cool...and all runs from the bloody USB or CD or DVD...whichever you desire....ha. Search for that "Hiren's Boot CD" - and then dig for the version, bro.04:37
Legendre_So.. this desktop machine has been a total slug ever since installing the LTS.04:37
Legendre_it's getting damn unnerving.04:38
YankDownUnderax562: http://www.hiren.info/04:38
ax562what's that?04:39
YankDownUnderLegendre_: I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I shall assume all of the blame for your machine running slow. Ubuntu doesn't pay me enough. (this is a joke...trying to get you to relax before anyone can give you a hand)04:39
ax562well, I can see what it is04:39
Legendre_TOP doesn't seem to show much that looks out of place.. what should I be looking at?04:39
ax562but I assume you want me to run one of those boot cds :p04:39
YankDownUnderax562: Yersh...do go see...creating an XP boot is a good thing - especially since it will allow you to flash your BIOS with a version that is acceptable, eh? Yeah.04:40
Legendre_YankDownUnder: I was planning to blame you, so thanks fo stepping-up.04:40
=== ola is now known as Guest14207
Bashing-omax562: To add to the mix: " c. Check the date of the microcode package: it needs to be newer than your BIOS / UEFI! " : https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/microcode >> ' apt show amd64-microcode ' .04:40
YankDownUnderLegendre_: Coolbeans.04:40
Legendre_seems like it's always out of ram, swapping or something.04:40
abelur_Hi anyone on ubuntu 16.04 have issues with connected over vpnclient (cisco vpn) while using a vpn split tunnel .... basically dns resolve stops working when vpn is connected, everything, i need to disconnect from the vpn to actually browse a site. Until now I have tried reordering the entries in /etc/nsswitch.conf ... my /etc/resolv.conf is updated with the VPN DNS entries, everytime I add open/google-dns into the resolve.conf, the other does not work. Als04:42
abelur_o disable dnsmasq option in networkmanage.conf04:42
Legendre_point is, I need a more precise tool to determine exactly what is dragging it all down.04:42
Legendre_the old stand-bys like top, free etc aren't giving me any leads.04:42
ax562http://pastebin.com/8zENKN4g04:43
YankDownUnderLegendre_: How much RAM ya gots, and how much swap is setup on the system?04:43
ax562that is my microcode output04:43
ax562looks like march of this year04:43
tatertots104:43
YankDownUndertatertots: PMSL :)04:44
ax562Bashing-om it is looks like04:44
Bashing-omax562: So not that old of hardware " Version: 2.20160316.1 " .. so what is the date of the bios ?04:44
ax562200704:45
Legendre_one moment04:45
ax562believe 03/2007 but 2007 for sure04:45
YankDownUnder2007! OMG! I was like what, 46 back then! Wow!04:45
ax562lmao04:46
ax562I told you it was old04:46
ax562my parents pc04:47
YankDownUnderax562: My daughter is older than that machine! Does it have ossification happening on the shell/cover/keyboard or any type of encrustation that can be used for radiocarbon dating?04:47
ax562hahahaha04:48
Legendre_YankDownUnder: http://pastebin.com/s5T8M9js04:48
ax562no but the floppy drive needs replacement04:48
aabbcchi everyone .. i have installed gns3 using commands in terminal of my ubuntu desktop ... i want to remove it ... anyone can help me?04:48
ax562:P04:48
Legendre_that's all of the mem/cpu stuff04:48
YankDownUnderLegendre_: Just a quickie question - is it safe to assume you've done all the "third party driver" installations - yeah?04:49
sacarlson3aabbcc: you might cd into that dir and see what's in it before deleting it04:49
Bashing-omax562: Any consolation .., I too run an old AMD box from 2007. So far .. so good .. 16.04 performs well on old spinning rust .04:50
sacarlson3aabbcc: maybe just move the dir first see if all goes well then just delete it04:50
ax562it actually ....don't hate me...performs better on windows 8.1 :p04:50
sacarlson3aabbcc: after move try reboot and run most apps you normaly run04:50
ax562but runs smooth on both os04:50
Legendre_YankDownUnder: well, perhaps.. about the only one would be a vid driver, I'd think..04:50
aabbccsacarlson3, OK i will try it .. thanks'04:51
tatertotsI've got an old AMD socket AM3 system too04:51
ax562if it wasn't for the horrible video card it would be pretty awesome04:51
ax562I prefer intel but amd gets the job done04:51
YankDownUnderLegendre_: I'd not blame the vid driver yet...however, that being said, are you running Unity, Mate, Cinnamon, XFce, LxDE or KDE?04:51
ax562and amd was the first 64 bit cpu :p04:51
Legendre_YankDownUnder: it's Xubuntu, XFCE04:52
tatertotsI built me a shinny new Skylake Z170 chipset system a few months back04:52
ax562skylake = intel?04:52
orlockax562: nahh...04:52
YankDownUnderLegendre_: Right oh - just was checking - because KDE, Unity, Mate and Cinnamon can be heavy on "eye candy" - and therefore, sluggish on that note...04:53
Legendre_sure04:53
orlockax562: pretty sure that Cray/Sun/Digital (amongst others) were first04:53
YankDownUnderLegendre_: Has it been suggested to look into tweaking the drive speed/reads using hdparm yet? (I don't do good at reading minds or thinking into the realm of yesterdays)04:54
Legendre_so I've run Xubuntu since Edgy, on various machines, and it's always been nice. In fact, the 14.X I had on here previous was fine, too.. it's just this 160.4 (?) that's being such a pill04:54
tatertotsIt was either build skylake now or wait until amd releases zen/AM4..and i couldn't wait04:54
YankDownUnderorlock: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit_computing04:54
orlockYankDownUnder: yeah, already there. Cray in 197504:54
YankDownUnderLegendre_: well, for one, 16.04 is using "systemd" - which is  a bit of a difference, hmm...04:55
Legendre_YankDownUnder: no, I've not bothered with hdparm on this go.. nor on anything since I ran Slackare.04:55
orlockYankDownUnder: actually earlier, depending on definitions04:55
orlock196104:55
orlockdamn04:55
Legendre_like I say, this setup is pretty much like every other xubuntu setup I've ever run, in terms of what's installed, etc.04:57
ax562well mass market pc I meant04:57
ax562but damb 1975 that is so long ago04:57
Legendre_so I have some reasonable stanards to compare with.04:57
Grorco_sorry it froze my machine04:57
YankDownUnderLegendre_: Fair enough - so you're aware of hdparm - and have quite a good idea of things if you've come from the Slackware streams...but do you see where I'm going with this? I was going to suggest "tuning" the params for hdparm...but as well, something to look into is changing from systemd back to sysinit - does that make sense?04:57
Legendre_I was in kindergarten in 1975. =)04:57
YankDownUnderax562: 1975 is NOT long ago. Ahem.04:57
ax562hahaha04:58
ax562sorry gramps :p04:58
ax562jkjk04:58
Legendre_YankDownUnder: sure enough. What does systemd cover? Is it for the /dev/ tree again?04:58
YankDownUnderax562: I watched the first step onto the moon in 69 in my 1st grade class.04:58
ax562I was only a twinkle in my dads eye in 197504:59
ax562cool04:59
Grorco_https://imagebin.ca/v/2oRheRy5lgh904:59
ax562unfortunately I watched challenger blow up in my kindergarden class :(04:59
Legendre_thanks for the energy.04:59
abelur_anyone has a few mins to look into vpn / dns resolve issue ^^^^05:00
ax562198605:00
Grorco_That's what happens when I run the code, it was normal at first but I tried changing the textedit to listview and now it stays like that even after changing it back05:00
tatertotsabelur what's the issue?05:00
abelur_Hi anyone on ubuntu 16.04 have issues with connected over vpnclient (cisco vpn) while using a vpn split tunnel .... basically dns resolve stops working when vpn is connected, everything, i need to disconnect from the vpn to actually browse a site. Until now I have tried reordering the entries in /etc/nsswitch.conf ... my /etc/resolv.conf is updated with the VPN DNS entries, everytime I add open/google-dns into the resolve.conf, the other does not work. Als05:01
abelur_o disable dnsmasq option in networkmanage.conf05:01
YankDownUnderLegendre_: it's a means by which to intiate the processes/systems/jobs - there are two different "schools" - one being "systemd" the other being "sysinit"...sysinit being the older...either which, since 16.04 and the implementation of systemd, there are many issues - especially in upgrades from 15.10 and below...all pertaining to speed...SO...now that you know, there ya go. I know that there is a means by which to "change back" to05:01
YankDownUnderthe "sysinit", but haven't tried it or suggested it before...especially wouldn't do so to a noob...05:01
abelur_tatertots, ^^05:01
Legendre_ah ok.. so does it totally replace init??05:01
YankDownUnderax562: I was in Florida when that happened...watching the lift-off.05:01
Legendre_as in telinit etc?05:01
Legendre_is no longer cromulent/05:01
Legendre_?05:01
tatertotsresolv.conf get's rewritten by DHCP05:02
ax562as a kid I didn't really understand what was happening05:02
sacarlson3Grorco_: looks like it's working to me05:02
YankDownUnderLegendre_: yes - replaces it...05:02
* Legendre_ boggles05:02
tatertotsso unless you took care of that adding stuff to resolv.conf isn't doing you any good05:02
Legendre_god but I'm old05:02
ax562I saw it blow up, then I'm thinking, wait, is that supposed to happen...05:02
YankDownUnderLegendre_: I was kinda looking though some stuff about changing over the weekend...but didn't really get far, mainly because it was the weekend...05:02
sacarlson3Grorco_: and if it's a problem it might be the python app your running05:03
Grorco_sacarlson3, did you look at the picture? and it just crashed my machine :(05:03
tatertotswhen you're connected to vpn are you using the local 'route' or the remote 'route'?05:03
sacarlson3Grorco_: yes it's not crashed05:04
Legendre_YankDownUnder: oh look at that.. systemd with pid 105:04
abelur_tatertots, I have two sets of DNS (1. used for vpn and 2. use for regualer browsing with opendns)05:04
sacarlson3Grorco_: did you try any other python apps?05:04
Legendre_but telinit is still installed... hm..05:04
aabbcchi everyone .. i have installed gns3 using commands in terminal of my ubuntu desktop ... i want to remove it ... anyone can help me05:04
abelur_while one set is added into resolv.conf ... the sites dont work05:04
Legendre_what rl is shutdown? 6?05:05
sacarlson3aabbcc: did you move the dir?05:05
YankDownUnderLegendre_: Rl is 0 for shutdown eh05:05
sacarlson3aabbcc: or do you now have any new info.  why do you repeat?05:05
abelur_I think am using the remote routes ...05:06
aabbccsacarlson3, it says that it is not a directory05:06
sacarlson3aabbcc: any other question like do you know how to move files?05:06
sacarlson3aabbcc: what path is that?05:06
abelur_tatertots, is there a way, I could verify this ... as I remember add additional routes to my vpnclient config throught network manager05:06
Grorco_sacarlson3, I'm having trouble trying to run it outside of idle05:06
Legendre_lol05:06
aabbccsacarlson3, /home/gns305:06
Legendre_well, 6 is as well..05:06
Bashing-omLegendre_:  0 runlevel0.target, poweroff.target ; 6 runlevel6.target, reboot.target - emergency emergency.target .05:07
sacarlson3aabbcc: ls -l /home/gns305:07
Legendre_the dang thing let me call telinit 6 from a vt, without sudo!05:07
tatertotsconnect the vpn and ping the remote route addy05:07
YankDownUnderLegendre_: Runlevel 6 is reboot, 0 is shutdown - then there's the infamous "Runlevel Pi"...05:07
tatertotsthen ping your local route addy05:07
Legendre_why does it let me call telinit 6 without sudo?05:08
tatertotssounds like you're using the remote route05:08
Legendre_is that correct?05:08
Legendre_here, let me try telinit 005:08
aabbccsacarlson3, ok? what is next05:09
sacarlson3Grorco_: only this python app?  try another verify that your python system is working05:09
abelur_tatertots, yes - I can ping and the routes show up properly when on `route -n`05:09
YankDownUnderLegendre_: THAT is truly a mystery...however, I've given up trying to "solve mysteries" and just stand back in the amazement of how things have gone "south" since Slackware 3.2 :)05:09
tatertotsis the remote route supposed to provide internet connectivity or only grant you access to the network resources behind it?05:09
sacarlson3aabbcc: the next would be to return me the results05:09
YankDownUnderLegendre_: http://askubuntu.com/questions/779640/how-to-remove-systemd-from-ubuntu-16-04-and-prevent-its-usage05:10
Legendre_sure as shite, telinit 0 works just the same.. no sudo.05:10
Grorco_sacarlson3, only this app and only if the textedit is there if I comment it out or add another one after it, it works fine05:10
tatertotsif it's supposed to only grant you access to network resources behind it, then it's functioning as designed and you should set your local route which does have internet connectivity05:10
snfgfWhat's the name of a device file for a phone I've connected by USB?05:10
Legendre_possible more than one dev.. like /dev/micN or /dev/dspN etc?05:11
sacarlson3Grorco_: I'm not sure but I assume your problem is in the python software.  might ask the writer of it to look at it your find another solution05:11
abelur_tatertots, ok it makes sense now ... then this has nothing to do with the dns resolve when connecting over vpn ?05:12
Legendre_just saying it may not have a single, dedicated dev to do duplex on phone05:12
aabbccsacarlson3, the result is " Desktop Documents Downloads examples.desktop Music Pictures Public Templates videos"05:12
snfgfLegendre, none by those names05:12
Legendre_snfgf: no /dev/dsp*05:12
Legendre_?05:12
snfgfnope05:12
Legendre_/dev/audio*05:12
snfgfnope05:12
Legendre_what does dmesg say?05:12
tatertotsyou simply need to pick a default route05:12
Legendre_does it enumerate the devs?05:13
sacarlson3aabbcc: and that's what is inside this path?05:13
snfgfYes. 'new high-speed device number 2'05:13
tatertotscan you access network resources behind the vpn?05:13
snfgfthen Product, Manufacturer, SerialNumber05:13
abelur_yes05:13
snfgfbut no mention of a device file05:13
Grorco_sacarlson3, Thanks hopefully I'll figure it out05:14
Legendre_snfgf: does it give it an address? Please paste the dmesg output to pastebin etc05:14
abelur_tatertots, yes ... i can ssh into the servers i need05:14
aabbccsacarlson3و غثس05:14
tatertotssounds like you're using the remote route as the default route instead of the local route that connects you to the (W)orld(W)ide(W)eb05:14
aabbccsacarlson3و yes05:14
Legendre_snfgf: if it doesn['t have the correct driver (do you need to load a module?) it will not assign a port / address05:14
Legendre_and then there's no /dev/ file abstracted to it..05:15
snfgfusb 3-1?, I can't see an address, it shows up on 'lsusb' as Bus 3 Device 00305:15
tatertotsthe remote route it only going to get you network access to the vpn server and the network resources behind it, you probably want to use the local route if you want internet05:16
abelur_tatertots, it makes perfect sense, but not an nw expert05:16
abelur_how to add local route as default route05:16
Legendre_snfgf: do you know which module it uses?05:17
Legendre_snfgf: sorry, this is all very generic advice, obviously.05:17
sacarlson3aabbcc: maybe ls -ld /home/gns3  ; but it sounds like the file no longer exists05:17
Legendre_if you know the module, run modinfo (mod name) and see if it tells you anything05:17
snfgfLegendre, I don't. I just thought I could plug it in then access the filesystem. How do I find out the module?05:17
sacarlson3aabbcc: you do know how to remove file?   man rm05:18
Legendre_snfgf: watch which modules (if any) load when you plug it in? =)05:18
Legendre_sorry..05:18
YankDownUnderSee y'all laterz.05:18
sacarlson3aabbcc: or move file man mv05:18
Legendre_later YankDownUnder05:18
snfgfxhci_hcd?05:18
tatertotsdoes your vpn server allow you to set manual ip settings or are they automatically set for you?....it sounds like you're been adding routes for it ...so i probably answered my own question just now lol05:19
Legendre_snfgf: more to the point, what driver does it need?05:19
Legendre_look it up.. do you have it?05:19
Legendre_bbl05:19
abelur_tatertots, lol ...05:19
snfgfit says, 'new high-speed USB device number 8 using xhci_hcd'05:19
ax562later YankDownUnder05:19
snfgfso I guess so05:19
abelur_tatertots, adding the routes so that I can use a split tunnel ... and avoid redirect all traffic thru the vpn05:20
snfgfmaybe I need to mount /dev/bus/003/008?05:20
tatertotsdoes the route you are manually setting by your own hand provide internet access? can you confirm this?05:21
sacarlson3snfgf: my guess is your phone is using the mk china chip set05:21
snfgfwhat are the implications?05:22
sacarlson3snfgf: I have the same and still can't get it to mount as usb drive05:22
snfgfit is a nokia lumia05:22
Legendre_why would a telephone mount as a USB 'drive', as in, storage?05:22
tatertotsif so are you using the correct routes and have made sure there is not a typographical error when manually setting your route05:23
sacarlson3snfgf: no it's uses Qualcomm MSM8974 Snapdragon 80005:23
Legendre_you don't generally mount audio devices.. you read/write to their /dev/ nodes05:23
abelur_tatertots, some of the web site work ... like google05:23
abelur_but some of the websites external website dont work05:24
tatertotsyou're sure you're getting fresh info from the web servers on the working web sites and not seeing a cached web page that was cached when you were disconnected from vpn?05:24
sacarlson3snfgf: I don't see any problem with that phone mounting as a drive.  sometimes phones require to be set as usb mountable05:25
tatertotswhen you say some websites work...are you actually running traceroute or nslookup or are you just going by what you seee in a web browser?05:25
tatertotsi've answered my own question again05:25
abelur_from the web broswer05:26
aabbccsacarlson3, sorry didnt understand how to remove it05:26
tatertotswhat you see in a browser could be cached05:26
sacarlson3snfgf: might be a small chance it has a dual mode problem where it tries to setup the phone as a data modem and fails.  this can be fixed with config settings05:26
Legendre_snfgf: in the old days, your audio out was /dev/dsp.. it accepted raw pcm audio at 44.1/1605:26
tatertotsmisleading you to think some websites are working05:26
sacarlson3aabbcc: you don't even return results to tell me it exists or not05:26
Legendre_so you <could just cat file.pcm > /dev/dsp and it would play your tune or whatever05:26
abelur_I the following err: This site can’t be reached05:26
abelur_Try:05:26
abelur_Reloading the page05:26
abelur_Checking the connection05:26
abelur_Checking the proxy and the firewall05:26
tatertotswhen you actually have no internet at all of any sorts when connected to vpn05:27
abelur_tatertots, ^^05:27
Legendre_or cat /dev/mic > file.dsp and have a dsp recording of the mic05:27
aabbccsacarlson3, gns3 exists yes .. sorry but i am not understanding what you want me to do05:28
Legendre_and in my exp, audio devices - USB or otherwise - enumerate as audio devices.. files, like /dev/dsp etc.05:28
tatertotsyou got that error when you attempted to go to one of the website that you thought were working?05:28
sacarlson3aabbcc:  do you know how to use the filemanager?  try deleting it05:28
abelur_works without the vpn ...05:28
aabbccsacarlson3, no05:29
abelur_tatertots,  that website works without the vpn connected05:29
tatertotsuse traceroute05:29
sacarlson3aabbcc: what do you know how to do?  maybe become a cook?05:29
tatertotsI'm not going to pry into your privacy and ask what website this is ...but run traceroute against it05:29
tatertotsrun traceroute agaisnt it while connected to vpn05:30
tatertotsmy typing today is horrid05:30
tatertotsare you familiar with running traceroute and working with the results?05:31
abelur_tatertots, yes a little bit.05:31
aabbccsacarlson3, why are you saying that? .. i am just a beginner05:31
abelur_this resolves to an internal ip which is only accessable through vpn05:32
sacarlson3aabbcc: are you running out of disk space?  why do you so need to delete these files?05:32
sacarlson3aabbcc: they won't harm anything05:32
tatertotsnow run trace route again without the vpn connected and look at the results05:33
tatertotsyou that route makes a round trip on your local route but your remote route is the point of failure05:34
aabbccsacarlson3, gns3 is a network simulator & it has some problems that it is not running correctly .. i want to delete every thing and reinstall it from scratch05:34
sacarlson3aabbcc: learn the basic functions of a computer including the browser,  learn some basic features including the filemanager,  learn english or find a source of info in your first language05:34
abelur_while connected it just gives me a single line05:35
abelur_when not connected there are several hops05:35
abelur_tatertots, ^^05:35
tatertotswithout prying into your personal business I'll assume you're running traceroute against google.com as you used in your example05:35
sacarlson3aabbcc: or then force remove the file with rm command  sudo rm -rf /home/gns305:36
sacarlson3aabbcc: if that don't work then the files don't exist05:36
tatertotsif you traceroute google.com connected to vpn and it goes as far as a internal ip only accessible by vpn..you found your point of failure05:37
abelur_tatertots, not really ... the domain/service which I need access to05:37
gholguinhi05:39
tatertotsyou need to traceroute something that would be available on both ends for troubleshooting...tracerouting something you can ONLY access with this VPN for troubleshooting no internet issue isn't the methodology05:40
tatertotsthat's why i used google.com in my example05:40
tatertotstraceroute google.com while connected vpn05:41
abelur_the site I am connecting to is an accessable without vpn, but does not work when connected to vpn ... let me check google like you mentioned05:41
aabbccsacarlson3, Every thing is deleted in /home05:43
sacarlson1aabbcc: very good05:43
aabbccsacarlson3, no, i wanted just gns3 to be deleted05:44
sacarlson1aabbcc: yes that is what that command should have done05:44
sacarlson1aabbcc: what do you now feel is not deleted or too much deleted?05:45
tatertotsif the traceroute stops short a hop or more of getting google.com to you when connected to vpn the route you have manually chosen is the point of failure05:45
aabbccsacarlson3, too much deleted05:45
aabbccsacarlson3, everything is deleted .. not only gns305:46
sacarlson1aabbcc: and why is that?05:46
abelur_tatertots, both work for google tr ... except that when connected the last hop goes through my vpn05:46
orlockSome VPN's try to disable split tunneling05:46
aabbccsacarlson3, i dont know05:46
orlockabelur_: do you manage the VPN, or is it IT provided? or is this one of those personal "location hiding" systems/05:46
sacarlson1aabbcc: what do you mean by everything?  are you on it now chating with me?05:46

abelur_orlock, they are not forceing ... thatz way the additional ipv4 routes are added05:48

sacarlson1aabbcc: well good problem solved05:49
sacarlson1aabbcc: reinstall a new system if needed05:49
sacarlson1aabbcc: would have taken much less time.  also think about setting up virtualbox with a fresh system05:50

abelur_ah not really, just confirmed it05:53
abelur_tatertots, ^05:53
abelur_tatertots, will adding a default route work solve this ?05:54
sacarlson1notyetelite: does it not work on any archived file or just one?  what app might he be running to archive?   what type of archive file format? ....05:54
sacarlson1notyetelite: much too little detail05:55
notyetelitehe will be joining in in amin05:55
tatertotsif you use the route that takes you were you want to go..yes05:55
blade420none works05:56
blade420how do i get that info05:56
abelur_tatertots, thanks a lot ... let me work with the IT and see if I can get it resolved, before that will try to add default route and check05:57

orlockabelur_: What client are you using?05:57
abelur_orlock, networkmanager / vpnclient / cisco vpn05:58
orlockabelur_: there's also openconnect05:58
orlockdepends on if they are using the old style or new style client05:58
orlock"Cisco VPN Client" vs "ANyConnect"05:59
orlocki found that openconnect worked fine for me when i was troubleshooting some vpn issues05:59
orlockthe Cisco(tm) VPN client will try to enforce the routes configured from the VPN host05:59
al_nz1Evening all06:00
abelur_orlock, what pkg should i install to try with anyconnect06:00
orlockabelur_: openconnect i think it's called06:00
orlockand then just run openconnect from the terminal06:01
al_nz1I had a samba share setup without issue - then I plugged in a external disk and added another share to the smb.conf with guest ok = yes - but when I try to access that I get a permissions error - anyone know why?06:01

al_nz1orlock: did that06:01
al_nz1I can post the conf06:01
abelur_orlock, what I am using is cisco compatible vpn client (vpnc)06:02
sacarlson1al_nz1: did you try just use the filemanger to right click on the dir to share over samba?  it used to work06:02

al_nz1this gets more puzzling. Now I can authenticate but any attempt to browse below the root share just ends up in windows "thinking" about it07:16
Triffid_Hunteral_nz1: keep in mind that samba often uses 'nobody' user to access files, which may not have permission to access your external drive07:23
Triffid_Hunteral_nz1: also, getting stuck when accessing external disks often means your usb dropped out for a moment and left a dangling mount.. linux kernel apparently isn't smart enough to recognise that the same disk came back and it can resume the mount just yet07:23
al_nz1Triffid_Hunter: actually your right it could be a USB problem07:24
al_nz1the external disk is borked and I am getting files off it as fast as I can07:24
Triffid_Hunteral_nz1: in that case I'd suggest grabbing a partition image, then getting the files out of that afterwards.. assuming you have enough contiguous free space somewhere that is07:25

sacarlson1the next question to ask is how to fix it07:45
leeyaayeah was going to ask taht07:46
leeyaathat*07:46
sacarlson1leeyaa: after reboot does it still happen and does it boot at all?07:46
leeyaasacarlson1: servers boot fine. i upgraded 10 already07:46
sacarlson1so it's like a function that is no longer needed ?07:47
sacarlson1everything works otherwise?07:47
leeyaaat first glance yeah everything works07:48
leeyaait is probably nothing bad, but wanted to know how to fix it07:48

sacarlson1leeyaa: seems runlevel has been changed to targets in 16.04 http://askubuntu.com/questions/788323/change-runlevel-on-16-0407:51
sacarlson1upgrade may have left legacy stuf behind that still looks at runlevel07:51
leeyaayeah thats what i thought too07:52
leeyaa should ignore it or report a bug ?07:52
sacarlson1might try a fresh install and verify that this error is still seen or not seen like in a virtualbox install.07:53
leeyaai havent seen it on fresh install07:53
sacarlson1that's what I figured.07:53
sacarlson1it's your call if you want to put in a bug report can't hurt.  but at this point I don't see it doing any real harm.  just more noise in logs07:54
leeyaanot worth the time i guess07:55

jancoowi'm really mad right now08:19
jancoowreally mad.08:19
GoMeatalhhahahha its true but some how dependable in Hardware configuration too coz my laptop has ubuntu based configuration08:19
sacarlson1jancoow: I never upgrade.  I normaly just save a partition to install the next system on and start to test that and keep the old in the event of problems with the new fresh system08:19
geirhacheck if dpkg is still running08:19
jancoowthe reason why i upgraded? Because there is a major bug in bash in 14.04. It took me hours to firgure out why my bash script wasn't working08:19
jancoowand it ONLY happend on ubuntu 14.0408:20
jancoowtested in multiple arch systems, elementary os, kodi machines, raspberry pi's, it worked EVERYWHERE08:20
jancoowexcept on ubuntu 14.04 because of a nasty bug.....08:20
sacarlson1jancoow: never had any problems with bash on 14.04 maybe you were running the other script interpriter that is default08:20
geirhaIt might have been a bug with trusty's bash. Never really confirmed it08:20
jancoowsacarlson1: well it's working now after a half-upgrade08:20
sacarlson1dash I think08:21
Triffid_HunterI've got problems with bash in ubuntu, tab completion doesn't work half the time08:21
leeyaanever had issues on 14.04 either08:21
geirhajancoow: anyway, are there currently any dpkg or apt processes running?   ps -ef | grep -e dpkg -e apt08:21
jancoowdeclare -A 'assoc_array=([uptime]="44728.99" [distributor]="Arch" [boottime]="1468750320" [description]="Arch Linux" [release]="rolling" [codename]="n/a" )' DOESNT work, however declare -A assoc_array=([uptime]="44728.99" [distributor]="Arch" [boottime]="1468750320" [description]="Arch Linux" [release]="rolling" [codename]="n/a" ) does work..08:22
jancoowfor some reason a declare -A with ' ' doesnt work on trusty bash -.-"08:22
jancoowgeirha: i had to kill it08:22
jancoowit was stuk over 10 hours08:22
jancoowstuck*08:22
geirhaso no, I take it? how did you kill it? kill -9?08:23
jancoowokay well.. there are still some processes08:23
jancoowi only killed the upgrade script i think08:23
jancoowdamn i'm in a hurry. Will be back in a hour08:24
sacarlson1Triffid_Hunter: I wouldn't mind seeing an example of one of these bash files that you say don't work08:24

sacarlson1leeyaa: and why I always install LTS and only upgrade when needed08:26
leeyaasacarlson1: its from lts to lts although the point release is not ready yet08:26

leeyaahey thats not nice ;p08:27
sacarlson1leeyaa: sorry just kidding08:27
leeyaabtw im absolutely sure the bugs i found will exist in the final release08:27
sacarlson1leeyaa: well go confirm it so that don't happen08:28
sacarlson1and most bugs like that are upgrade bugs, there is almost no way to make a bugless upgrade.  there are too many combinations of software to test for that08:29
aroodabossHi08:29
leeyaasacarlson1: actually its possible. just not with this distro08:33

Bear__As for a VPN, security.08:38
Bear__same idea08:38
der_ubermensch95k08:38
geirhaTriffid_Hunter: With bash-completion enabled, it will try to read the makefile and complete targets instead of filenames08:38
sacarlson1Triffid_Hunter: might be an env thing since mine is working ok but then I run mint08:38
Triffid_HunterBear__: simplest network lockdown for linux is iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -m state ! --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j DROP - but make sure you have some way to log in because that'll drop any and all packets that the system didn't itself ask for..08:39
geirhain earlier versions it also had a bug where it actually executed the makefile while parsing it. Hopefully that is fixed by now08:39
Triffid_Huntergeirha: well how do I either turn off bash completion, or make the thing that handles makefiles non-stupid?08:39
Bear__Triffid_Hunter, if I specify some open ports before I run that command will I be ok?08:39
geirhato turn off bash-completion temporarily, in the current terminal, run complete -r08:39
geirhathat gives you the default programmable completion, which should complete filenames08:40
Triffid_HunterBear__: if you allow them through in nat prerouting before that, it'll be ok. also note that existing connections shouldn't be affected, so make sure you can ssh in before you exit your current ssh session08:40
Triffid_Huntergeirha: I'll try that next time I'm wrestling with ubuntu08:40
geirhato disable bash_completion permanently, you need root access08:41

serialnutsHi all, I want to migrate my current installation that resides on a 500GB RAID 0 (2x250GB Mechanical drives) to a 240GB SSD. I haven't filled the RAID0 partition yet so there won't be a space issue whatsoever between the drives. Could anyone recommend the better tool for the job? Thanks09:54
EriC^^serialnuts: rsync09:55
serialnutsWould cp -a do? If I mount the other drive09:55
serialnutsThanks EriC^^09:55
EriC^^rsync -av --exclude "sys" --exclude "proc" .... / /path/to/other/mounted/fs09:56
serialnutsEriC^^, so rsync everything over and then run grub again to make it boot?09:56
serialnutsEriC^^, Thanks for the help09:56
EriC^^yeah mount bind the virtual fs and chroot and reinstall grub09:56
EriC^^serialnuts: no problem09:57
EriC^^i think there's a better rsync command in the arch wiki, 1 sec09:57
EriC^^rsync -aAXv --exclude={"/dev/*","/proc/*","/sys/*","/tmp/*","/run/*","/mnt/*","/media/*","/lost+found"} / /path/to/mounted/fs09:58

creeepI installed notion using sudo apt-get ...now how do I set it up?10:24
minimecsulle: Might be that the xserver sees your 'secondary monitor' as 'primary'. You can check that with 'xrandr | grep primary' or simply 'xrandr' in a console.10:25
minimecsulle: To change that... 'xrandr --output YOURDEVICE --primary'10:26

multifractalSo given this makefile, how can I tell where the compiled binaries are stored?10:46
multifractalhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/19885242/10:46
minimecsulle: good question. I normally do that with 'xrandr' and compare the device name and resolution. xrandr sees the device in a different way sometime. For example. I have two DVI 1680x1050 displays connected, one is plugged with a displayport-dvi adapter. xrandr sees them as HDMI1+2... ;)10:47

sulleminimec, when i write grep primary the resolution looks like my main monitor. but still, the problem is when im trying to play games :/10:48
multifractaljoin ##c++10:48
jancoowback!10:51
akikpoops: /etc/sysctl.conf. i think it should be sunrpc.tcp_slot_table_entries in that file10:51
minimecsulle: I see. My experience is that some programs use the primary screen as default fullscreen device, like 'kodi' for example.10:51
jancoowso..10:51
sacarlson1multifractal: DISTRIBUTE_DIR /bin and /lib10:51
jancoowanyone an idea how i can resume the upgrade?10:51
nullbyte_ow can i add somethings for grub command line to default to be added automatically when i run grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg GRUB_CMDLINUX_DEFAULT i mean something like that but added stuff to be from another OSs (fedora, ubuntu) ?10:51
jancoowi wll repeat my question10:51
jancoowHi there. I was upgrading my ubuntu 14.04 to the newest verson, xenional. In this upgrade proces, the installation got stuck on Preparing to unpack .../cgroup-lite_1.11_all.deb ...10:52
jancoowi killed the installation process (the python one)10:52
sulleminimec, hmmm. i realy dont know what to do :(10:52
jancoowbut i still see processes in  ps -ef | grep -e dpkg -e apt10:52
minimecsulle: Still. You can once try to switch the primary screen. The command I posted doesn' survive a reboot... ;)10:53
poopsthanks akik10:53
jancoowhttp://pastebin.com/raw/uBCBP8qw10:53
jancoowshould i kill those?10:53
jancoowwhat should i do?10:53
poopsakik: question. currently this file does not have this entry. where does it take the current value from then? (16)10:54
brutosHey10:54
sulleOk, thanks alot minimec :)10:54
brutosanyone here?10:54
akikpoops: kernel default i guess10:54
minimecsulle: no problem10:55
akikpoops: the file does not include nearly everything by default10:55
poopsjust for curiosity. can u check on ur system?10:55
abelurorlock, all I had to do was configure and run dnsmasq locally10:55
akikpoops: i checked and no sunrpc entries10:55
sacarlson1butos; last I checked it seems we now have 1874 people here so why would you need to ask that?10:56
acerimmer_brutos, save time and bandwidth; ask your questions10:56
poopscat /proc/sys/sunrpc/tcp_slot_table_entries10:56
sacarlson1jancoow: I think I would just kill them. maybe reboot10:57
jancoowsacarlson1: i'm afraid a reboot would destroy everthing10:58
sacarlson1jancoow: make a backup before you do10:58
jancoowproblem is i doesn't have much time and the server needs to be up an running :/10:58
jancoowand ugh, it has to be stable before i leave for a year to another country ://10:59
jancoowevery command i type is so SLOW10:59
sacarlson1jancoow: make a backup virtual system while it goes down10:59
jancoowit looks like there is a heavy load10:59
jancoowsacarlson1: yeah thanks i will try that. I hope i can resume the upgrade or something10:59

ramonskiesacarlson1: how can i check this?11:04
akikpoops: sunrpc.tcp_max_slot_table_entries = 65536 and sunrpc.tcp_slot_table_entries = 211:04
jancoowit even hangs on reboot command :((11:04
sacarlson1ramonskie: route -n might provide a clue11:04
ramonskiesacarlson1: nothing interesting there already checked,11:05
sacarlson1ramonskie: does it work or not?11:06
ramonskiewlan / eth0 works11:06
sacarlson1ramonskie: so if it works don't fix it11:06

Anta_KopiI not see email11:07
Anta_Kopino in spam11:07

poopsme too11:08
sacarlson1ramonskie: not sure how yours was setup but it might just default to wlan0 that is common but your system is not common so may require manual intervention11:08
sacarlson1ramonskie: also some usb wifi devices if unpluged  and repluged sometimes become a new wlanX11:09
ramonskiesacarlson1: well i now disabled dnsmasq for now but i really would like to solve this11:09
sacarlson1ramonskie: I think I had a usb device like that, that I force to become wlan0 with mods to some config file in /etc11:10
=== nameless1 is now known as nameless
sacarlson1ramonskie: but it is normally not needed11:10

sacarlson1ramonskie: ya that happens too11:11
sacarlson1ramonskie: does it remain the same after reboot?11:11
ramonskieyes11:11
rajivmars Is "virtualbox" only able to run 32-bit operating systems or 64-bit as well?11:12
ramonskiealso what noramly was eht0 is now eth111:12
sacarlson1well then just change the values in networkmanager to match I guess would be the easiest11:12
sacarlson1rajivmars: vitualbox runs both 32 and 64 bit11:14
sacarlson1rajivmars: but to run 64 bit you must have a 64 bit system, but you can also run a 32 bit on a 64 bit sytem11:15
ramonskiesacarlson1: where can i gind these config? for networkmanager? because i can't find anything releated to this at /etc/networkmanager/11:15
rajivmarssacarlson: then why its only showing 32-bit guest versions on my 64-bit ubuntu host?11:15
akikramonskie: look into /etc/udev/rules.d11:15
sacarlson1ramonskie: its partly dependent on the driver used for the device but just from memory it's like modprobe or something11:15
ramonskieok11:16
sacarlson1modprobe.d maybe11:16
sacarlson1or modules11:16
akikramonskie: you can bind the mac address to an interface name there11:17
sacarlson1ramonskie: there are added params on some devices and they are not common between devices11:17
ramonskieokay i see in my /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules 4 network cards11:18
ramonskiesee http://pastebin.com/P75ATpcS11:19
ramonskienot sure which i should remove11:19
akikramonskie: you can see three different mac addresses there11:20
ramonskieyes and thats whats strange11:20
akikooh actually four11:20
akikramonskie: you can see the current mac addresses with "sudo ifconfig -a"11:20
akikdon't need to use sudo even11:20
ramonskieso the 2 below are correct11:21
ramonskieno clue where those other 2 comes from11:21
akikramonskie: ok then you can remove the top two ones and rename the interfaces at the bottom11:21
multifractalsacarlson1: makefile.config says that the build and distribute directories are inside the source folder I cloned from github. But looking inside them I find that they're empty.11:21
sacarlson1ramonskie: might try just backup the file and remove the 6 bottom lines and reboot to see what happens11:22
akikramonskie: it's really weird that the mac addresses would change without changes to the hardware11:22
sacarlson1multifractal: did you build as root or as user?11:22

=== abhinav is now known as abhvl
sacarlson1abhvl: sounds like you would write a script that would run at boot to mount it for you12:22
sacarlson1abhvl: the auto start at boot script can be started with eather cron or system methods12:23
sacarlson1abhvl: but it looks like these guys have a better idea http://askubuntu.com/questions/450895/mount-luks-encrypted-hard-drive-at-boot12:25

sacarlson1jancoow: ok I'll take a look12:31
minimecjancoow: Reading your pastebin, try to remove the old -dev file installed when using 14.04 'libmysqlclient-dev'12:31
abhvlsacarlson1: thanks. reading.12:32
jancoowminimec: how can i do that?12:32
abhvlsacarlson1: just to discuss, in case of script where do that script reads the passphrase from?12:32
minimecjancoow: Try to remove it the normal way with 'sudo apt remove libmysqlclient-dev'. You can also try to 'sudo dpkg -r libmysqlclient-dev'12:34
sacarlson1jancoow: can you try uninstall this first? libmysqlclient-dev12:34
sacarlson1ya what minimec said12:34
jancoowi want to12:35
sacarlson1abhvl: in this experiment I think I chose some public like google drive12:35
sacarlson1abhvl: if the system was compomized I could just remove the link12:35
jancoowsacarlson1: minimec: ah. I need to delete al this: sudo apt-get remove libmysqlclient-dev mysql-client mysql-client-core-5.7 dbconfig-mysql phpmyadmin before i can move on12:36
abhvlsacarlson1: ok. looks good.12:36
sacarlson1jancoow: so do it12:36
jancoowsacarlson1: http://pastebin.com/raw/h4zrtFZA12:38
jancoowcan't even do that.12:38

jancoowminimec: i know. I have mysql-5.7 installed manual because it wasn't in the trusty repo12:42
jancoowand that's why i've conflicts now i think!12:42

dancingd3monhey guys, I'm trying to run some app in the terminal called kid3-cli and I keep on getting can't connect to X server13:36
dancingd3monMay I know what should be done to fix this?13:36
sacarlson1dancingd3mon: are you running an X server on that system?13:38
dancingd3monI have no idea what that is.13:38
dancingd3monHow can I check ?13:38
sacarlson1like are you running it on a desktop or laptop?13:38
Fuchsdancingd3mon: do you have a graphical user interface?13:38
Fuchs(also the -cli is somewhat misleading, then)13:39
dancingd3monI only use VNC to connect to my server sometimes, It's a dedicated server that I run those commands in putty.13:42
dancingd3monI removed kid3 and now I'm getting some errors for some reasons13:42
dancingd3monI did this : sudo apt-get remove kid3*13:42
dancingd3monnow whenever I type whereis <appname>13:43
dancingd3monit says13:43
dancingd3monThe program 'whereis' is currently not installed. To run 'whereis' please ask your administrator to install the package 'util-linux'13:43
dancingd3monI try to install it and then it stops with such an error:13:43

pixel6692Hello my NFSD results in reboot of whole server after NFSD: starting 90-second grace period, https://thepb.in/p/66hAc5gwVLZAPSX13:43
tatertotswhy did you remove it so quickly?13:44
\9dancingd3mon: sounds like you somehow screwed up your system with that remove. try reinstall util-linux13:44
tatertotsonly to attempt to reinstall it13:44
\9dancingd3mon: refer to /var/log/apt/ to find out what happened to it13:45
dancingd3moni tried it and i keep on getting some error message...13:45
\9you might be missing something else too13:45
dancingd3monokay13:45
Picidancingd3mon: don't use wildcards when removing packages, and always read before you press yes.13:45
\9"some error message" doesn't say anything to us13:45
dancingd3monhttp://sourcedigit.com/18106-install-kid3-audio-tag-editor-on-ubuntu/13:45
dancingd3monthis is what the folk said at the bottom...13:45
tatertotsyou should have asked here before removing it. so you could at least remove it in a 'graceful' way13:46
\9shouldn't have used a wildcard there13:46
dancingd3monso now umount/mount seems not working too..13:46
\9instead remove the exact package you installed13:46
\9and let autoremove remove the rest13:46
dancingd3monyeah my mistake13:46
dancingd3monso what can I do at the moment to fix this?13:46
\9as i said13:47
\9reinstall util-linux13:47
\9and find out what else was lost13:47
\9if reinstalling these packages is a no go then you will have to reinstall the system13:47
dancingd3mondamn it...13:47
\9you said you get "an error message" without saying what the error is13:48
dancingd3monthis is what i get : http://pastebin.com/YrLNFwVz13:49

sacarlson1dancingd3mon: to me it looks like the remove took out some stuf unrelated to the originl kid3 due to your kid3*.  my best guess is you will have to do a complete reinstall13:55
\9sacarlson1: right13:55
\9do you have anything to actually add to this discussion?13:55
dancingd3monbuthttp://pastebin.com/1gmy4gkR13:56
dancingd3monhttp://pastebin.com/1gmy4gkR13:56
\9well13:56
\9if you take a look at that log13:56
dancingd3monbut why I can't just re-instlal them...13:56
\9you can see a lot of essential packages being removed13:57
\9"dpkg: warning: this is an essential package; it should not be removed"13:57
\9this is sort of a big red warning flag13:57
\9... yeah looks like you removed most of your system13:57
dancingd3monwow13:57
dancingd3monso what can be done at this moment beside re-installing ?13:58
\9looks pretty irreperable13:58
dancingd3monbecause I can't do this13:58
tatertotslol besides reinstalling lol13:58
\9yeah this is FUBAR'd13:58
\9wipe and reinstall13:58
dancingd3monwtf...It's like 20 tb in here13:58
dancingd3monI don't have somewhere to backup 20 tb13:59
\9well your data should be on a separate partition, right?13:59
tatertotsyou want to try and actually use the mangled mess you've created and think it might have the slightest remote chance of being stable moving forward13:59
\9if your data is not on a separate partition... you'll need some backup space fast13:59
tatertotsLMAO13:59
sacarlson1\9 was this message to me?: do you have anything to actually add to this discussion?13:59
\9nevermind13:59
dancingd3monI'm out of words tbh14:01
dancingd3monthere isn't a way to at least try to fix this?14:01
sacarlson1dancingd3mon: we learn from our mistakes14:01
\9no14:01
tatertotsall for a mp3 id3 tag editor14:01
tatertotsfriggin mp3's14:02
\9you removed the entire system14:02
PiciIt happens.14:02
tatertotswell you live and learn14:03
\9dancingd3mon: if you have your 20tb data on a separate partition, reinstalling the system should be a no big deal14:03
\9if it's not, then you need to back that up somewhere14:03
\9if this is a remote server, it's time to get some support involved14:03
tatertotsyou won't be doing that many more times in the future...no more *wildcard removing things unless you know EXACTLY what the results will be and are willing to accept the risks14:04
\9yea and always review the packages being removed14:04
\9don't just press 'y'14:04
dancingd3mon__dude I just dont know where to start now hmm..14:04
\9i just told you14:04
dancingd3mon__buying another server to backup14:04
tatertotssure you do14:04
dancingd3mon__and doing it all from the beginning14:04
tatertotsyou're going to start reinstalling14:05
dancingd3mon__I need to backup 20 tb14:05
\9get support involved to help you with it14:05
\9i wouldn't try to actually run anything on the system14:05
\9because there is no system left14:05
dancingd3mon__damn it..14:05
DArqueBishopAdd "keep regular backups" to the list of lessons learned. :-)14:06
tatertotsyou don't even have physical access to the server do you...you said you're using it remotely over VCN/ssh14:06
\9next time, have a separate partition for the system14:06
\9so you can easily reinstall in case this happens14:06
sacarlson1dancingd3mon but like they said all the data is intact you can just mount this partition and recover the data or maybe not even move it depending on how it's partitioned14:06
dancingd3mon__I have 40 gb for the root14:07
dancingd3mon__can you just ask me what to do to double check the whole partition thing?14:07
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: I don't know how your vps or whatever is setup so like they said you will need support14:08
squaregoldfishIf I make changes to /etc/crontab, do I have to run anything to make the system see the changes (as I would with a user crontab)?14:08
dancingd3mon__I need to know if the system was installed in another partition or the same one as the one with data14:08
\9df -h14:09
\9if you have df anymore14:09
sacarlson1squaregoldfish: so you modified the file direct?  if so you would have to reboot or maybe restart cron14:09
squaregoldfishsacarlson1: Thanks!14:10
dancingd3mon__now ssh is out all of a sudden14:11
dancingd3mon__and won't reconnect..14:11
tatertotsnot suprised14:12
\9that tends to happen when you remove the system, it can only keep its processes running for so long14:12
tatertotsdancingd3mon.....did you have a 'disaster recovery' plan/procedure in place when you established this VPS system of yours?...14:13
dancingd3mon__no recovery plan14:13
dancingd3mon__at all14:13
dancingd3mon__i can access the data via ftp14:14
dancingd3mon__but ssh won't work for some reason14:14
dancingd3mon__vnc died too14:14
\9you can access the data over ftp?14:14
dancingd3mon__yeah14:14
dancingd3mon__rutorrent is still running14:14
\9what kind of ftp is it?14:14
tatertotsdon't most hosting providers make it pretty easy to spin up a new instance?14:14
\9i mean if the server is dead14:14
\9how can you access the files?14:14
dancingd3mon__ssh wont let me in14:15
dancingd3mon__but idk i can still ftp14:15
dancingd3mon__and rutorrent gui and deluge works14:15
dancingd3mon__i had the ssh set to something else14:15
dancingd3mon__maybe the config was wiped away or something14:16
dancingd3mon__ssh port i mean14:16
\9actually14:16
\9the logs indicate that you removed the ssh server too14:16
EriC^^what's the problem dancingd3mon__ ?14:17
\9he removed his system with apt14:17
dancingd3mon__yup! :(14:18
EriC^^what log?14:18
EriC^^what command did you run?14:18
dancingd3mon__http://pastebin.com/1gmy4gkR14:18
dancingd3mon__sudo apt-get remove kid3*14:18
\9EriC^^: he has 20tb of data stranded14:18
EriC^^page no longer available14:18
\9it's /var/log/apt/term.log14:19
dancingd3mon__http://pastebin.com/HzLh8ypX14:19
EriC^^that log doesn't seem that important14:20
\9well it was the indication that yes he really did remove the operating system14:20
dancingd3mon__so EriC^^14:20
dancingd3mon__do you think there is one hope of fixing it ?14:21
PiciEriC^^: start at line 650 or so14:21
dancingd3mon__no more SSH as \9 said14:21
\9now we're left figuring out disaster recovery14:21
dancingd3mon__Idk how on earth can one CL do all this14:21
dancingd3mon__no warning happened or anything....14:21
dancingd3mon__that folk in that blog said if you wish to remove it14:21
dancingd3mon__write this !14:21
\9you didn't pay attention to the list of packages it was going to remove?14:21
dancingd3mon__sudo apt-get remove kid3*14:21
\9that it was going to remove a ton of everything?14:22
\9the advice was bad14:22
dancingd3mon__i left it and went to eat!14:22
Picidancingd3mon__: did you also use -y or -f when running the command?14:22
EriC^^this is all you removed paste.ubuntu.com/19902633/14:22
EriC^^http://paste.ubuntu.com/19902633/14:22
\9still enough to render the system inoperable14:22
DArqueBishopThis is why #openvpn has a bot trigger for blogs that says, "Do not follow blog posts for openvpn. They are wrong, they are old, they are written by fools. We won't read them, or troubleshoot them."14:23
dancingd3mon__Is it fixable EriC^^ ?14:23
\9systemd, mount, grub, udev.14:23

EriC^^dancingd3mon__: yes14:23
dancingd3mon__I barely knew how to type some commands14:23
EriC^^dancingd3mon__: these are the packages paste.ubuntu.com/19902769/14:23
Picidancingd3mon__: It should have listed the packages it was going to uninstall before it did it.14:23
\9EriC^^: his ssh is dead and has no way to get into the server aside from ftp14:24
dancingd3mon__But no more SSH for me ?14:24
EriC^^download those as they are in a file dancingd3mon__ and type xargs -a /path/to/file sudo apt-get -y install --reinstall14:24
\9he can't type anything anymore14:24
dancingd3mon__but this is weird...Since ftp is running14:24
dancingd3mon__I can't run putty via winscp ?14:24
dancingd3mon__Or something like this..14:24
\9can't run putty if there's no ssh server14:24
DArqueBishopWinSCP requires an SSH server.14:25
EriC^^dancingd3mon__: usually vps give another way to connect other than ssh, like a console from their site14:25

mcphailsacarlson1: \9: at a push, you can always try using busybox, which provides "mount" as one of its many tools14:49
sacarlson1ph88: yes I can just right click on desktop in gnomeX and menu has a selection to create a launcher14:49
RonnieIs there a music applet/widget for ubuntu that lets me organize/cleanup my music library (rate, add to playlist, delete)?14:50
sacarlson1mcphail: is busybox still installed?14:50
\9hmm is that so14:50
\9that could work14:50
ph88sacarlson1, i don't have that option14:50
mcphailsacarlson1: not by default, but you just need to get the binary on there somehow14:50
mcphailsacarlson1: it is self-contained14:51
\9ph88: you can always write one by hand, as they're text files: https://developer.gnome.org/integration-guide/stable/desktop-files.html.en14:51
sacarlson1there ya go problem solved,  but I'm not doing it14:51
mcphailsacarlson1: agreed14:51
ph88 \9 don't want to write by hand14:51
sacarlson178 euro is not much money it would cost $1000 in man power to fix it14:51
\9sacarlson1: and it's still a long shot14:52
sacarlson1yup14:52
sacarlson1but if someone was up for the chalange I would love to watch14:52
\9maybe you could write up a /usr/local/bin/mount that uses busybox mount?14:52
\9and try run apt with that?14:52
\9of course busybox needs to be installed14:53
sacarlson1yes that might be an easier solution14:53
\9dancingd3mon__: are you still there?14:53
sacarlson1maybe even worth a try14:53
dancingd3mon__yes14:53
dancingd3mon__...14:53
mcphail\9: you'd just symlink /usr/local/bin/mount to wherever you have the busybox binary, and it would work automagically14:53
\9does the system have "busybox"?14:53
\9mcphail: oh, even nicer14:54
dancingd3mon__what is this?14:54
dancingd3mon__I'm not sure tbh14:54
pavlushkaIs there any way to make the wifi device work, http://paste.ubuntu.com/19904862/ ?14:54
\9dancingd3mon__: it's a self-contained binary containing a lot of utilities, including the 'mount' that we need14:54
\9dancingd3mon__: try run it in the console14:54
dancingd3mon__what to run ? just busybox?14:55
\9yeah14:55
dancingd3mon__yeah14:55
dancingd3mon__seems installed14:55
dancingd3mon__too many stuff came too14:55
\9okay cool14:55
\9now try do this: sudo ln -s `which busybox` /usr/local/bin/mount14:55
dancingd3mon__i can give you TV access if you want to see yourself ?14:55
dancingd3mon__anyway ok14:55
\9then try run that reinstall command that EriC^^ provided earlier14:56
dancingd3mon__from the currently definied functions14:56
dancingd3mon__it shows mount, I see it14:56
dancingd3mon__but when running the command you just gave me14:56
dancingd3mon__it returns with nothing14:56
dancingd3mon__like i type it then enter14:57
\9it just links 'mount' into busybox14:57
dancingd3mon__oh okay14:57
dancingd3mon__so what to do now?14:57
\9try run that reinstall command14:57
dancingd3mon__sudo apt-get install --reinstall mount14:57
dancingd3mon__this?14:57
\9might need to also do: sudo ln -s `which busybox` /usr/local/bin/umount14:57
\9yeah14:57
dancingd3mon__done14:57
dancingd3mon__now running the reinstall commang14:57
thurstoni'm trying to make a snap package from a single executable binary (the output of a game engine),  however I can't seem to get it to work.  I can make the snap package, however when I install it and run the command to execute the program, it segfaults14:58

sacarlson1down to the last idea of iso?15:03
\9i'm afraid so15:03
Amine_#ssh15:03
Amine_sorry15:03
dancingd3mon__so no hope?15:03
sacarlson1i've never done it15:03
\9i don't even know how could it possibly be done15:04
jinxi1Hello, I need help15:04
sacarlson1i've sort of done it with grub2 where I would mount an iso to install it without a usb drive15:04
zamanftest15:04
\9!ask | jinxi115:05
ubottujinxi1: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience15:05
sacarlson1you mount the iso as a loop15:05
sacarlson1I have done that before mount iso loop15:05
\9what do you intend to accomplish with the chroot though?15:05
dancingd3mon__can that be helpful sacarlson1 ?15:06
jinxi1when I scroll a webpage slowly in Google Chrome, I see lines being drawn. The page does not scroll smoothly.. it looks like the GPU is having trouble to redraw the lines. my gfx card is a Nvidia GTX 750i15:06
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: maybe15:06
zamanflol15:06
sacarlson1like  sudo mount -o loop /pathto.iso15:07
dancingd3mon__:)15:07
\9does the server have enough room for an iso though15:07
dancingd3mon__yeah15:07
\9and which iso should be used?15:07
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: just to see if we can even get that far try upload an iso file of the system you now have installed15:08
\9i still don't get though, what would the chroot accomplish?15:08
\9once you have the chroot environment, what then?15:09
sacarlson1I think we might fall into another problem as I think I couldn't install a system on the same disk that I mounted it from, but maybe it will work if it's on another partition15:09
dancingd3mon__iso file of a system?15:10
dancingd3mon__the support are the ones who install everything15:10
dancingd3mon__i don't have like a control panal15:10
dancingd3mon__to install isos15:10
sacarlson1if he was place the iso in the partition of his data files and then mount it, he might be able to reinstall a working system on the 40gb partition15:10
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: you don't need a control pannel just a root term15:11
dancingd3mon__nice..15:11
dancingd3mon__may i know what i should be doing now?15:11
sacarlson1maybe15:11
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: you should be looking to download if you don't already have it an iso of the same version you had running15:12
sacarlson1what was running up there?15:12
sacarlson114.04?15:12
dancingd3mon__yeah15:13
sacarlson1ok locate and download that , then upload or ftp to your system to the data partiton root15:13
sacarlson1were you keep your music and stuf15:13
dancingd3mon__is there a way to download it from cl ?15:14
dancingd3mon__like I'm now on VNC of my server15:14
sacarlson1cl?15:14
dancingd3mon__I can go to some website and download the iso then move it anywhere15:14
dancingd3mon__right?15:14
dancingd3mon__on the same server instead of uploading it from my own computer I mean15:14
sacarlson1if you can direct download it to the site that's cooler15:14
sacarlson1any method to get the iso up there is cool15:15

chimerahitman_Hello, I am using Ubuntu Gnome Xenial, and I am having issues with multi-monitor setup. The issue is about monitor order once I enable a secondary monitor, where I have to reorder the monitors every time. Some other information is how the monitors are connected to the gfx card being in an order by how long the cable is which doesn't match the arrangement order.15:32
chimerahitman_Is there a way to force gnome display utility to always have monitor 2 as the left one, and monitor 1 as the center one. Always.15:33
sacarlson1can you show me the exact command you used and I assume you are root15:33

tatertotsah i see you guys are still trying to assist dancingd3mon with his disaster recovery. Need to get popcorn15:56
sacarlson1k1| no this a desparate recovery attempt15:56
k1lwhy not making a live-usb and booting that and then chrroting from that live system into the install15:57
sacarlson1tatertots: ha ha15:57
tatertotsk1l he used apt-get remove *wildcard with a -f force option and removed more than he was intending to remove15:57
dancingd3mon__k1l, I wish I understand what you said, I always ask the support to install whatever OS I want. I don't know the live-usb and booting thing. It's a dedicated server that I hat15:58
sacarlson1I'm almost ready to pull the plug or let the next doctor take over15:58
acovrigI’m trying to install ubutnu server 16.04 from USB; I tried unetbootin from a mac and it gave me a corrupted USB (picked disk check at the grub menu); I tried using the USB disk creator from ubuntu 16.04 desktop and I get a missing isolinux error on boot15:58
dancingd3mon__sacarlson1, said he got some method that has 20% of working which we trying atm...15:58
dancingd3mon__but our issue seems weird. Any iso would get mounted but the ubuntu one...15:58
tatertotsit removed WAYYYYY more then he was bargaining for including but not limited to system essential packages15:59
k1lacovrig: use "dd" on temrinal that will make a 1:1 copy and will not change any system related stuff.15:59
tatertotshis logs were full of warning that he -f forced through like 'warning: this is an essential package; it should not be removed'15:59
tatertotsbut since he used -f it removed them15:59
sacarlson1k1| it's on a virtual box and it has like 20gb data in it15:59
tatertotshe's now in a bad situation and it's a VPS system he has no physical access too16:00
acovrigk1l: tried that, I pick USB in the boot menu, it hangs on a black screen for ~20s, then reboots16:00
dancingd3mon__I didn't use -f... I only typed the command line that dude had on his blong to remove something and it did the rest...16:00
tatertotsthat's the gist of it16:00
dancingd3mon__sudo apt-get remove kid3*16:00
OerHekstatertots, so what does he expect from you ?16:00
dancingd3mon__I don't expect anything form him. I'm just seeing if there is any hope that I can fix it without buying a newserver and backing all my data..16:01
tgm4883I'd ask the VPS company if they could mount the drive on another system16:01
k1ldancingd3mon__: some hosters have special recoveries. but their functionality differs a lot. its possible you cant mount a loop iso there. i would ask the hosters support what is possible to recover that system16:02
dancingd3mon__i doubt they can do anything16:04
mcphaildancingd3mon__: any rason you can't download your data from the server?16:04
dancingd3mon__but can you tell me what should i ask them exactly?16:05
dancingd3mon__I can download them but they are 12 TB ...16:05
dancingd3mon__I will need to backup those first! and to do such a thing, I will need a temporay server16:05
mcphaildancingd3mon__: fair enough ;)16:05
dancingd3mon__So there is no hope for sacarlson1 method to work and mount this iso...16:06
tgm4883I'm not sure what you're trying to gain by mounting the ISO16:06
minimecdancingd3mon__: Just an idea. If you can still install something, install 'tasksel'. Maybe you can then install the 'Ubuntu Server' package selection. That might save you.16:06
jinxi1kde-style-qtcurve-qt5 : Depends: qtbase-abi-5-5-116:06
jinxi1E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.16:06
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: I have run out of ideas, if it can't mount other than try another iso of a different version if you want16:07
jinxi1but the package qtbase-abi-5-5-1 is already installed16:07
dancingd3mon__minimec, can you tell me what exactly to do ?16:07
dancingd3mon__sacarlson1, I will try someone to download it and mount it and see if it's the busybox mount issue16:07
tgm4883sacarlson1: what are we trying to do with the mounted ISO16:07
sacarlson1tgm4883:  run it with chroot16:08
tgm4883sacarlson1: and? I'm assuming you want to access a working install on that, are the files even expanded on a server ISO?16:09
sacarlson1tgm4883: we have failed to get mount loop to work on this iso but has worked on others16:10
minimecdancingd3mon__: 'sudo apt-get install tasksel', then 'sudo tasksel', choose 'Basic Ubuntu Server' and 'OpenSSHServer'. OpenSSh Server is important, because you might loose the connection, if you are connected via ssh.16:10
minimecdancingd3mon__: Well... If you can install something, it is porbably easier to just 'sudo apt install -reinstall ubuntu-server'.16:12
sacarlson1tgm4883: if the iso mount worked we would do something like this https://www.offensive-security.com/backtrack/customising-the-backtrack-4-prefinal-iso/16:12
dancingd3mon__any installation process ends with errors16:12
dancingd3mon__....16:12
dancingd3mon__http://pastebin.com/2cpXxHxS16:13
tgm4883sacarlson1: the main problem I see with that is that right in the middle it says "Now you are in the live cd environment", which the server ISO doesn't have16:13
sacarlson1tgm4883: good point so you think maybe the desktop might work then?  and can you still install a server with a desktop cd?16:14
tgm4883I digress, I would just ask the VPS if we can setup a new server and mount the current servers disk to the new16:15
sacarlson1tgm4883: I agree we can pull the plug at any time.  should I call it? 11:16pm bkk time it's dead16:16
tatertotsdancingd3mon have you opened a trouble ticket with your VPS support yet?16:16
tgm4883sacarlson1: not sure, I think what we're trying to do here is more effort than it's worth16:16
dancingd3mon__<theroyal> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,16:16
dancingd3mon__<theroyal>        missing codepage or helper program, or other error16:16
dancingd3mon__<theroyal>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try16:16
dancingd3mon__<theroyal>        dmesg | tail  or so16:16
sacarlson1tgm4883: I agree and why we killed it16:16
dancingd3mon__this is what i guess when mounting the iso on another working server16:17
dancingd3mon__so the iso itself has issues16:17
afx_Hello ! what permissions shall I give to a network share i mounted with cifs so that I can create/rename files? I have used this : sudo mount -t cifs -o username=uname,password=passwd,uid=0666,gid=0666 //ip/folder /mnt/point.16:17
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: but it matched the md5sum?16:17
dancingd3mon__it did yeah16:17
dancingd3mon__same exact one16:17
tgm4883where did you get the ISO16:18
sacarlson1I still think we take tgm4883's advice and call it dead and give VPS support a try16:18
dancingd3mon__from their website16:19
tgm4883Had we started with that, you might be up and running by now ;)16:19
dancingd3mon__okay so may I know what exactly to ask them for?16:19
rajucHi all.16:20
rajucI am trying to create a qemu img of ubuntu 14.04 using kickstart. I want grub-efi-amd64-bin to be installed in the image and I added that in the kickstart in %packages16:21
rajucIn the vnc session, I can see it saying Installed grub-efi-amd64-bin16:21
rajucBut when I launch the img, I cannot find that package there16:22
rajucAny pointers ?16:22
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: ask them maybe if you can get them to reinstall a system without disturbing the /home partition16:22
tgm4883dancingd3mon__: "pardon me fine VPS administrators, I seem to have FUBAR'd my virtual server that I have purchased from you. Rather than waste both time and bandwidth by downloading 12TB of data and then uploading 12TB of data, would it be possible to get a new server and have you attach the current servers disk to it, so that I might mount the old disk at16:23
tgm4883/mnt and copy my data off of it? I promise not to remove all the packages in my VPS this time around."16:23
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: and for sure my idea wouldn't have worked as minimaly we would also need to inistall squashfs-tools16:23
EriC^^dancingd3mon__: a simple way to try to fix it would be to run a loop that try to install each package in that list, and if it can install 1, then rerun the loop and etc.16:24
tgm4883EriC^^: I think we're way beyond "a simple fix" at this point16:24
EriC^^who knows16:24
EriC^^but i really meant is that it's a quick and easy algorithm to install them in an order that dependencies get installed first16:25
sonu_nkHi i am when i am updating my ubuntu os is is showing package system is broken16:25
sonu_nkwht to do ?16:25
EriC^^just keep looping and each time what can be installed will get installed (if any can)16:25
tgm4883EriC^^: well had he reached out to support from the start, he could be up and running by now. The channel has been supporting him for 3 hours now16:25
EriC^^dancingd3mon__: would you like to try that?16:26
dancingd3mon__tgm4883, we were trying some other recovery way...16:26
dancingd3mon__yes of course16:26
dancingd3mon__can you tell me what to do ?16:26
sacarlson1dancingd3mon__: I am still proud to have been a wasted part in on this failed project, all I can say is we tried.16:26

dancingd3mon__thank you sacarlson1 anyway :)16:28

|TheWolf|Hi! I have kind of a weird networking problem: Whenever I connect my Ubuntu server to a (vpnc) VPN, it stops responding to it's public IP address. I can perfectly connect to both the internet and the other machines in the VPN, but I can't ping the it from anywhere outside anymore. Any ideas?16:50
EriC^^dancingd3mon__: if it installs a few that would be good16:51

FoeHammeredThis is partially a sanity check. So, I'm looking for a means to convert .toc to .cue, 'cause I seem to find a lot more support for .cue, and I've got a lot of .toc files. (Old CD format that maintains redbook audio.) First thing I found that converts that direction seemed to be cueconvert, but I downloaded the latest (cuetools apparently), and it doesn't seem to do this. Does this mean that cueconvert no longer does17:09

tatertotswhich if what you are trying to do is backup a mixed mode cd is probably why you're asking about bin/cue17:42

TheCynosureBashing-om: The OS's are on the same drive and I am trying to help someone with getting their computer to work so I can't execute the bootd command. I might just have to send him here and have him ask for you18:49
akikliri_: maybe the installation expects a uefi setup ?18:50
liri_akik: nah because its starting in legacy mode18:50
Bashing-omTheCynosure: I am not Windows literate . Being only one hard drive, and ibuntu installed .. then it is ubuntu's boot code that has jusristiction as Windows does not speak ubuntu, but ubuntu will honor Windows booting .18:52
TheCynosureBashing-om: Ok thx18:52
Bashing-omTheCynosure: By all means if there is a problem .. send your friend here and we see what we can do to get the boot situation corrected .18:53

TheCynosureBashing-om: Sending him now18:55
akikliri_: i think one more live session, mounting the root partition, chroot, mounting the special directories and grub-install /dev/sda could do it18:56
akikliri_: mounting the special directories before chroot that is18:57
liri_akik: if you want I will give you root access remotely to the live session :)18:57
akikliri_: no don't do that18:57
liri_akik: you mean /dev /proc etc right? tried that before too :(18:57
akikliri_: never give access to unknown people18:57
liri_but I know you, you're akik18:58
liri_:)18:58
akikliri_: /dev, /dev/pts, /proc and /sys18:58
liri_akik: we mount the special partitions first, then chroot right?18:59
liri_*special directories I mean18:59
akikliri_: yes18:59
liri_did it before but I'll try once more19:00
newbie|2To open a tar.gz and the subsequent installation ... anyone wanna help?19:02
=== acovrig_ is now known as acovrig
Bashing-omliri_: A thought in this full CHange Root :You need to use dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc instead of grub-install directly, so that the system knows that it needs to run grub-install on that drive the next time grub is upgraded.19:03
Bashing-omliri_: Wait ! The above is for MBR booting for grub ,, the structure for EFI is different !19:05
liri_akik, Bashing-om -  I'm on the live cd now. take a look at the current disk stats in my pastebin.com: http://pastebin.com/qW2kHH2T19:06
Bashing-omliri_: Look'n .19:06
liri_Bashing-om: I'm not doing EFI though... I'm doing plain old MBR as far as I can tell19:07

liri_ioria: ok, ran it again19:17
liri_seems ok19:17
liri_anything else I'm missing?19:18
alkisgliri_: and after all these commands that you've ran, what's the actual issue left? It won't boot? With what message?19:19
liri_alkisg: the issue is that windows 10 just boots directly. I can't boot into linux as I don't have this option (no grub or any other boot manager to let me do it)19:19
akikliri_: you should try a boot again now19:20
iorialiri_,  you should paste your last update-grub19:20
alkisgliri_: after that last command, i.e. while still inside the chroot, also try: dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc19:20
alkisgThis will also update the debconfig variables19:20
liri_ioria: its the same, nothing change from the one before it that it is in the paste19:20
iorialiri_,  so no win19:20
akikalkisg: what does that dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc do?19:21
iorialiri_,  no, sorry yes19:21
liri_ioria: no? :(19:21
iorialiri_,  yes, yes ... :þ19:21
liri_heh ok19:21
liri_should I try the dpkg-reconfigure thing?19:21
iorialiri_,  reboot first19:21
alkisgakik: it calls the postinst script for grub installation, which presents a menu and asks there user where to install grub etc19:21
liri_ok so all done with the live usb?19:22
dancingd3mon__can someone explain this to me :19:22
dancingd3mon__would it be possible to get a new server and have you attach the current servers disk to it, so that I might mount the old disk at /mnt and copy my data off of it? I promise not to remove all the packages in my VPS this time around."19:22
dancingd3mon__I fucked up my server and people advised me to do a fresh install. Now I have 12 tb of data.19:23
dancingd3mon__someone suggested this so what does he mean ? can someone explain it?19:23
nicomachus!language | dancingd3mon__19:23
ubottudancingd3mon__: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList19:23
dancingd3mon__oh sorry19:23
Picidancingd3mon__: explain what?19:23
dancingd3mon__i dont understand what he asked me to do19:24
dancingd3mon__so what should i ask the staff to do ?19:24
Picidancingd3mon__: which part?19:24
iorialiri_,  if you wanted to reinstall grub, yes... exit unmount and reboot19:24
dancingd3mon__the moung the old disk at /mnt19:24
dancingd3mon__mount*19:24
Picidancingd3mon__: thats either something that the VPS support people will do, or they will provide you with instructions to do that.19:25
=== marius is now known as Guest38714
Picidancingd3mon__: may I ask who you have the VPS purchased through?19:25
dancingd3mon__eqservers, ever heard about them?19:25

liri_ioria: no luck :(19:26
liri_windows 10 boots directly again19:26
liri_I've never had this much pain installing linux, this is beyond suffer19:26
dancingd3mon__But I still don't understand. He wants me to ask the staff to get a new server and attach the current server disks to it.19:26
Picidancingd3mon__: pretty much.19:26
dancingd3mon__this part i understand...what is the rest ?19:26
iorialiri_,   i saw a sdc  ...  what is it ?19:27
liri_ioria: I think its the usb because its 8gb19:27
dancingd3mon__where is my ubuntu installed at ? They always do the installation part so I'm confused. All I know is that I have 11 tb for me and the root got 40 gb.19:27
iorialiri_,   and sdb ?19:27
alkisgliri_: did you boot with the usb stick again?19:27
liri_ioria: no idea, maybe some windows thing?19:27
iorialiri_,    g19:27
tgm4883dancingd3mon__: you would need to get another server19:27
Picidancingd3mon__: If you're paying them, why not contact them for support and explain the situation?19:27
iorialiri_,    32 G19:27
liri_alkisg: what do you mean? no I removed the USB stick19:27
iorialiri_,    ATA LITEONIT LSS-32L (scsi)19:28
liri_ioria: I've no idea what that is19:28
dancingd3mon__I did. It was you tgm4883 who suggested this, right?19:28
iorialiri_,   well, its iin parted -l ...19:28
tgm4883dancingd3mon__: yes19:28
dancingd3mon__Will they ask me to pay for the new server ? I just need to backup the data.19:28
alkisgliri_: put the usb stick back in, boot with it, then install the kvm package while still on the usb environment, and finally run: sudo kvm -m 1024 /dev/sdb ==> this will boot your disk and will tell you if it's a grub issue or a bios/uefi/another disk issue19:28
tgm4883dancingd3mon__: that's a question for them, probably19:29
liri_alkisg: what does that do?19:29
iorialiri_,   not bear metal ?19:29
dancingd3mon__May I understand what you meant? like if they will attach my HDDs to a new server, now after installing the newserver, I backup the data folders only and delete the rest or what?19:29
tgm4883dancingd3mon__: the point was to scrap the old server and prevent you from having to download and then upload 12 TB of data19:29
liri_ioria: its a laptop19:30
dancingd3mon__so like they do it all from their side?19:30
alkisgliri_: kvm is something like virtualbox, if you heard of it. It emulates a pc trying to boot with your disk, but it makes sure that it boots the correct disk, so we don't need to check for other unrelated parameters that might affect your boot19:30
dancingd3mon__Are there any VPS providers that actually do this?19:30
tgm4883dancingd3mon__: you setup the new server how you want, you then copy only the data you need from the /mnt folder to wherever you need this19:30
alkisgliri_:  I.e. after you've done that, we'll be sure it's a grub issue only19:30
tgm4883dancingd3mon__: all they would do is connect the disk to the new server19:30
alkisgliri_: it doesn't modify your disk19:30
iorialiri_,   ok, but you should know what sdb is19:31
liri_maybe its just some ssd drive on the laptop?19:31
zaphonaHello guys, quick question - I try to disable network-manager in ubuntu 16 but I get this: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused19:31
zaphonathe quick question is: y?19:31
liri_alkisg: ok, let me try19:31
minimeczaphona: How do you disable it?19:32
liri_alkisg: so is it /dev/sdb or /dev/sda for the kvm tool?19:32
dancingd3mon__so they will mount my home directory to /mnt, then they are supposed to unplug the HDDs and put them in a new server ?19:32
liri_im on the live usb environment again19:32
zaphonajust simply sudo stop network-manager19:32
dancingd3mon__I mean, eventually I should be using my same server. I don't think they will give me a brand new server!19:33
alkisgliri_: wherever your disk is, fdisk says that's in sda, right?19:33
dancingd3mon__and like they fix that themselves...19:33
liri_alkisg: right19:33
cecunguk(Ask) recently i use sublime-text3 for edit css file, but sublime was crash and i restart my laptop. When reopen css file, there is no code in css file. How to recovery that ? Help me please thanks ;(19:33
=== nicomachus is now known as grindking_
dancingd3mon__the recovery operation will end with me using my exact server and exact IP but with my old HDDs mounted in /mnt .19:33
liri_alkisg: I did that and I get the grub menu19:33
=== grindking_ is now known as nicomachus
alkisgliri_: ok, close it19:34
liri_alkisg: can I actually boot the OS from it? :)19:34
minimeczaphona: use 'sudo systemctl stop NetworkManager.service'. To disable it permanentely: 'sudo systemctl disable NetworkManager.service'.19:34
dancingd3mon__or a new server and the old one wouldn't work for me anymore.19:34
alkisgliri_: you can boot linux, but don't boot windows because it will try to install the drivers for the kvm hardware19:34
alkisgliri_: so now you know that it's not a grub issue anymore19:34
liri_alkisg: ok cool19:34
alkisgliri_: it can be another disk, or a bios/uefi setting etc19:34
zaphonaminimec: thx19:35
minimeczaphona: Obviously start/enable will revert your previous commands19:35
akikalkisg: does it mean that his machine tries to boot off /dev/sdb ?19:35
zaphonathough so :)19:35
alkisgakik: liri_: not sure, what is /dev/sdb? Is it a blueray drive?19:35
liri_alkisg: can it be windows erasing mbr, moving grub out, or something annoying like that?19:35
roberto_la pazza gioia19:36
liri_alkisg: i tried it with the kvm . it just tries to boot ipxe or whatever, doesnt seem to be anything useful19:36
alkisgliri_: no, I've never heard of windows moving mbr at boot. Only when formatting, upgrading windows versions etc19:36
roberto_la pazza gioia19:37
liri_alkisg: so this is definitely not windows doing anything silly? I saw some stackoverflow answers on doing fixmbr on windows, bcdedit etc to change stuff19:37
alkisgliri_: all those are after mbr, and your windows starts before the sda mbr is even read19:37
alkisgliri_: what kind of system is that? E.g. a weird laptop?19:37
liri_alkisg: so its some bios setting maybe that I need to look?19:37
liri_alkisg: hp elitebook 840 g119:38
alkisgliri_: if you go to its bios settings, do you find a way to change the boot sequence, or some way to disable sdb?19:38
liri_let me see19:38

alkisgliri_: if all you reported is correct, then the only thing that I can imagine is that bios boots sdb in any case, which is some kind of internal memory, and this then handles the f11/f12 menu, the boot manager etc. I would back it up with dd so that I'm able to restore it, and then I would play with that, but I don't think I'd advice you to do that in case you completely ruin your laptop...19:58

futurama140I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 with cinnamon 3 and I'm having this issue: there is a ghosting that happens frequently where my desktop icons have a second image slightly off from where the actual icon is, and sometimes my icons just move off screen. I run two monitors of different sizes and the icons randomly move to an are off of the smaller screen that would exist if the screen was the same size as the larger one. can anyone help?20:17

Bashing-omNumber28_: And an update broke the proprietary driver ??20:23
Number28_Bashing-om: I rolled back to a previous kernel, and then used a live cd20:23
Number28_Bashing-om: still no dice.20:23
Number28_minimec: it is a broadcom driver however.20:24
TurboKrakenDid something replace Gnome-Schedule in 16.04?20:24
Number28_minimec: but going on this long and suddenly breaking, I can't see that being an issue here?20:24
minimecNumber28_: Personally neither do I. I could imagine a failing device after a kernel update, but not just out of the box...20:25
Number28_minimec: Exactly.. and rolling back AND a live cd?20:26
Number28_minimec: But ubuntu detects it... however it just doesnt do anything20:27

Number28_Is there anyway a printer could have interfered with my wifi drivers? I was trying to print when my internet stopped working.20:30
minimecNumber28_: Bashing-om: If we give the device a local ip with ifconfig, we could check whether the driver is working correctly right? We should be able to ping that local ip. So I would try 'sudo ifconfig wlan0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up' and 'ping 192.168.0.2'20:30

philm88Hey all. I've had a home server that's been running fine off a btrfs USB stick for months now. Out of the blue, it fails to boot. UEFI just says to insert a proper boot drive on startup - even if I manually force it to attempt to boot from the USB key (it does show up in the EFI boot devices list when I hit F11). Putting hte stick in another machine shows that the hardware seems to be fine - I can read20:37

elias_apatata: Has it been right?20:47
treblinka^ Yeah. Did it change?20:47
minimecelias_a: I agree...20:47
patataelias_a, on my previous laptop it's correct20:48
elias_apatata: Especially if it has been right file a bug. But as other localized languages have several alternatives in showing date and time I suspect greek localization also has. Have you checked that?20:49
elias_apatata: Localization bugs are quite common. (I am finnish and done some localization so I kind of know...)20:50
philm88I've managed to get run the efi shell - off hte same usb stick as the rest of the system that fails to boot. First time using efi shell - anyone got any pointers for debugging my boot issue?20:51
patataelias_a, can it be related that i have made an installation in english (the other machine with the correct format is in greek)?20:52
elias_apatata: If you have installed all greek localization packages after installation, no.20:53
=== AirPlanes2 is now known as AirPlanes

elias_apatata: Please tell me how it succeeded. Quite late here but I read later.20:55
akikelias_a: as a fellow finn, how do you feel about the ubuntu installation asking for the keyboard layout but then setting the system locale according to that too? i'm having my computers in english20:56
minimecnumber28: That paste looks ok. So with 'down' the device should still be listed but without ip. Also the commands should not have an influence on wlan1 and the connection you have to the internet. But... I am by far bot the 'network master'20:57
number28minimec: Hmm fair enough... so what do i do here?20:58
patataok elias_a, it was my fault. i assumed that if the date was displayed in greek caracters it would be greek format, but i was wrong. I just installed it, log out, in, and it's correct now.20:59
number28minimec: I've tried rolling back the kernel.. I've tried using a Live CD.. I've tried restarting the services.. I've tried updating the broadcom drivers..20:59
elias_aakik: It is not about the installer asking about the locale. It is about selecting the keyboard input method using the tool in upright corner.20:59
minimecnumber28: So with my trivial understanding, the driver is setup correctly and running, if you can ping the local ip of wlan0.20:59
number28minimec: and google is probably annoyed with my 'ubuntu broadcom drivers' search querries20:59
elias_apatata: Ok. Good you got it fixed. :)21:00
akikelias_a: but it sets /etc/default/locale according to your language choice which is then reflected in shell with month names in finnish21:00
elias_aakik: Yes. I know that. Especially because of that the behaviour I experienced was really strange.21:01
number28minimec: Well your understanding is far greater than mine..21:01
minimecnumber28: What could be (happened to me one time) that network manager took a nother name for my wifi device, different from the one listed in ifconfig. Check that in the preferences of network-manager.21:01
minimecnumber28: Experience maybe, not sure for understanding... ;)21:02
number28minimec: is there a config path for it?21:02
minimecnumber28: You can use the network GUI in 'Settings'21:02
number28minimec: oh i been there a thousand times today21:02

JohnW1990patata Can't you just re-search for the files you copied?21:34

patataJohnW1990, no, i moved them so they're not in the old location, and they're not in the new location either21:35
number28Bashing-om: Ugh.. i've been working on this for the past couple hours... this makes me so happy.21:35
JohnW1990patata Which version of ubuntu are you using?21:35
patatathe last one, just downloaded and installed today...21:35
number28minimec: In theory... the solution was to roll the kernel back.. but earlier when i did that, i didnt find my network card... that sound about right?21:36
JohnW1990patata Ok Good! Using the unity search (first button on the launcher on the left-side of the screen.) you should be able to find whatever files were copied unless they were deleted... In which case they would probably be in the trash.21:36
ccha5about dhclient, I set a script inside /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/ which parse /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.eth0.leases. Of course I add sleep 30 before parsing, but it look like lease file still created later. Does lease file is created before exit hooks?21:37
minimecnumber28: Honestely... I don't know... You had some network-manager version conflict, according to the error we had.21:37
JohnW1990patata After you click the unity search icon, there are tabs in the window it brings up along the bottom. Click the third tab which is the "File Search" tab. And then search for one of the files. If you copied them all to the same place they should all be there.21:37
minimecnumber28: ... and thanks for the beer. In fact I had one during our conversation. it's 23:30 here... ;)21:37
patataJohnW1990, they were not copied, they were cut and pasted. so they're not in the trash either.21:38
JohnW1990patata Steps to find the files are still the same regardless :)21:38
JohnW1990Patata If you cut & pasted them tey are somewhere and you should be able to easily search for them is what I'm getting at lol.21:38
JohnW1990Even if they are in root you should be able to find them21:39
squintypatata,  might want to try   sudo updatedb    to update your system's file datbase and then run  locate <filename> to see if they are still available21:40
number28minimec: lol well man... thank you. Seriously. You invested a decent amount of time into me today and i appreciate you for that.21:40

minimecnumber28: Come back here sometimes and try to share your experiences and solutions. The 'team' can never be big enough...21:43
patatai must add that these files were just recovered from a backup, and while i was moving them it was asking me if i should replace one with the other (many of them had same names). I think i clicked yes when it was asking to replace (null) folder with (null) document.21:43
patataor vice versa.21:44
Number28_minimec: Well I plan on passing along the karma21:44
JohnW1990patata Any chance they were corrupted after being recovered? Did you test any of them before moving them?21:44
patataJohnW1990, i didn't check them all, only a few and they were working. but some other were probably corrupted.21:46
patatanow i probably have to make recovery again?21:47
JohnW1990patata I'm no expert on the subject of file recovery. But it certainly sounds like something is corrupted. You *could* try to recover them again. Or simple scan the current drive they are on for errors using some sort of drive/file checking tool. The other users here may have advice on which tool to use.21:48

JohnW1990What about running windows inside of a VM? Would that work possibly?22:13
JohnW1990Even a small cut-down version of XP should run rufus22:13
holmserstartup disk creator does the standard ubuntu image just fine22:14
holmserjust not the modified version that I'm creating22:15
JohnW1990Oh I see22:15
k1lare you sure the iso you create is ok at all?22:15
k1lsounds more like you have an iso issue and not an making an usb issue22:15
minimecholmser: the post is rather old, but... http://serverfault.com/a/16706022:15
holmserk1l: It works in virtualbox22:15
k1lholmser: what is the issue when you boot it? is it a hybrid iso? then dd it to the usb.22:16
holmserk1l: it doesn't really do anything when I boot it.  Just skips right to the first hard disk22:16
_unreal_ok I just tried to transfer the file that I finished building using this site as a guide. https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/CuBox22:17
treblinkahave you tried booting it manually?22:17
_unreal_but when I went to copy the files from the harddrive to the thumb drive it failed after a min saying system does not support copying simbolic link files?22:17
JohnW1990_unreal_ Yea I am currently trying to figure out a fix for the slow transfer to USB from Ubuntu... it's a real drag22:18
_unreal_its not speed that is my issue its saying there are symbolic link files and it doesnt support trasnfering them22:18
JohnW1990_unreal_ Yea I'm not sure how to fix that, just mentioning the coincidence.22:19
_unreal_system does not support symbolic links, skip retry, or cancle22:20
al_nz1I have put my home directory on a second disk which I realise is NTFS, I need to umount home (/dev/sdb1) and format it as ntfs22:20
al_nz1format it as EXT422:20
al_nz1then remount it22:20
al_nz1but at the moment I cant umount it22:20
al_nz1it says target busy22:20
al_nz1help22:20
al_nz1pls22:20
_unreal_ya your using the computer22:20
al_nz1so can I move /home back to /dev/sdb1 (where the old home still exists22:21
_unreal_it would be easyer to boot with a live disk22:21
al_nz1well I commented out the home folder from fstab, and then did mount -a22:22
al_nz1but home is still busy :-(22:23
JohnW1990Anyone know how to disable swap on 16.04 to fix the USB transfer hang?22:24
OerHeksal_nz1, you cannot unmount a partition that is in use, boot a live iso and do it from there22:25
al_nz1OerHeks: ok - but surely there must be a way to move /home back to original location22:26
al_nz1then /home wouldnt be busy and could be umounted22:26
OerHeksif you want to restore your old home to the current, i think most setting files are in use, same solution, do it from a live iso.22:28
OerHeksor just copy data, not hidden .config folders22:28
ilmaisinwell, how was it, was the forum runner patched but the patch not yet applied to the server, or was there no patch available at all by the time?22:29
k1lilmaisin: better ask #ubuntuforums for that details22:30
_unreal_OerHeks, I just told him that hehe22:30
ilmaisink1l: ok22:30
OerHeks_unreal_, oh oke, lets wait for asking it again22:31
_unreal_hehe22:31
_unreal_I was like what the hell he asked the same question over and got the same responce LOL22:31
OerHeksIs there any full-moon detection app ?22:32
holmserk1l: It wasn't a hybrid iso22:32
_unreal_omg this is so slow. formating a 16gig sd thumb drive from fat to ext3 so I can copy symbolic links22:32
holmserI owe you a beer or 1022:32
_unreal_holmser, I'll be a pinch hitter k1l  refuses22:33
zerowaitstate_unreal_: well, you are probably checking for bad blocks22:34
ax562hello22:34
_unreal_soooo sloooooooooow22:36
JohnW1990And still no advice on how to fix the han/slow usb transfers anywhere22:37
JohnW1990*hang22:37
zerowaitstate_unreal_: of course, it also could be that your thumb drive is junk22:37
Cysc0Any here use pyAlienFX?22:37
_unreal_Cysc0, ever even heard of it22:38
_unreal_JohnW1990, hanging at random or hanging after a large volume of file transfer?22:38
JohnW1990_unreal_ nah man I've tried so many brands, they all act the same. It goes to 95-99% instantly and then hangs for like 10 minutes even on a 500MB file22:38
Cysc0dang, yeah I'm having some troubles with mine and i cant seem to find a fix or solution for it online. Im pulling my hair out trying to fix it lol22:38
JohnW1990I currently am using a Kingston 16GB stick which is brand-new22:39
_unreal_JohnW1990, that could be a usb driver issue22:39
_unreal_:) me too22:39
JohnW1990_unreal_ a lot of users are experiencing this issue apparently. There are multiple bug reports open.22:39
_unreal_16gig kingston, one of them micro one's that hardly sticks out of the usb22:39
JohnW1990^ yup thats the one22:39
_unreal_ya I think I got it for like $5 usd22:40
JohnW1990Actually no it's the "Keychain style"22:40
_unreal_ahh22:40
_unreal_ahh finally format complete took 17min22:40
JohnW1990O_o22:40
JohnW1990I tried a bunch of fixes for 14.04 we will see soon if they work :P22:42
futurama140I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 with cinnamon 3 and I'm having this issue: there is a ghosting that happens frequently where my desktop icons have a second image slightly off from where the actual icon is, and sometimes my icons just move off screen. I run two monitors of different sizes and the icons randomly move to an are off of the smaller screen that would exist if the screen was the same size as the larger one. can anyone help?22:42
MSDOS6hi22:43
JohnW1990hello MSDOS622:44
JohnW1990_unreal_ The fix for the 14.04 version of ubuntu worked. Just had to add a few lines to etc/sysctl.conf and run sudo sysctl -p in the /etc directory22:47
JohnW1990**** YEA! That has been annoying the crap out of me for a long time. It transfers 100* faster22:48
_unreal_hum22:50
_unreal_great now I cant write anything to the thumb drive22:50
red_hax0rwhere do the developers of Canonical have discussions about Ubuntu development?22:52
_unreal_its formated as ext322:52
k1lred_hax0r: look at the mailinglists22:52
JohnW1990I highly suggest editing sysctl.conf before doing ANYTHING with your USB's lol:22:52
_unreal_ok reformating to ext222:52
JohnW1990https://thepb.in/p/P1hv1Gwp8EDHl22:52
_unreal_I dont know what to edit22:52
JohnW1990View that link22:53
_unreal_looking22:53
JohnW1990just run sudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf from the terminal22:53
JohnW1990and add those 2 lines and save. Then go into at terminal type "cd /etc" and then "sudo sysctl -p"22:54
JohnW1990works wonders22:54
_unreal_I'm not sure if this is a 32bit or 64bit install22:54
_unreal_I think its 3222:54
JohnW1990oh then you should be fine (i think(22:54
_unreal_thought he computer I believe is 64bt22:54
JohnW1990I gotta go bro, have a good one :)22:55

minimecfractal: if you copy from windows to ubuntu via network, ubuntu will not show the copy dialog. Windowsd does... right?23:26
fractalwell, that's kinda not cool, but i guess it's as good as it will get23:26

Bashing-om_unreal_: The thing is .. who owns the mount point ? ' ls -al <mount_point> .. such as for example " ls -al /media/unreal/usb " . Maybe change the owner to "you" ??23:27
