vjacobhi all. is there any way to check from within linux, whether or not a certain PCI(e) slot is taken or not? I've looked at /proc and at lspci but none of these seem to offer a clear output00:06
naccvjacob: maybe lshw says?00:07
vjacobnacc, seems a nice tip, thanks, I will look into it00:08
naccvjacob: i think slot information generally requires some help from a lower layer to actually provide that data, i doubt it's done commonly00:08
naccvjacob: ah, dmidecode might do it00:09
naccvjacob: the "current usage" field for each slot00:10
vjacobawesome.00:10
L0quit00:10
naccvjacob: sorry for the misdirection on lshw00:13

vjacob-dmideco +dmidecode00:13
naccdjango_: go to their website and follow the instructions?00:14
naccdjango_: not supported here, though00:14
django_it didnt work00:14
naccdjango_: then ask them?00:14
vjacob"Current Usage: Unknown". Perfect.00:14
naccvjacob: hrm, i wonder what tha means00:14
vjacobi take it that means free00:14
naccvjacob: i get either "In Use" or "Available"00:15
vjacobbut then there is also "Current Usage: Available", so maybe not...00:15
naccvjacob: it might imply an out of date BIOS (as I believe DMI information is basically stored in a table)00:15
naccvjacob: could also mean a partially or mis-seated card?00:15
vjacobnacc, yeah, apparently my bios is a bit screwy according to dmesg00:15
naccvjacob: ah ok00:15

fullstackquick way to install X11 on Ubuntu Server? apt-get install x11?00:52
linos__what is the simplest way to connect linux VM to windows PC?00:52
fullstacklinos__, samba and depending on your VM software might be built in00:52
linos__fullstack, I have VirtualBox00:53
fullstackis there a menu option for sharing files between machines in VirtualBox?00:53
linos__fullstack, do I need to modify my smb.conf file?00:55
=== al2o3-cr1 is now known as al2o3-cr
b-yeezilinos__: No you shouldn't need to change smb.conf01:03
b-yeeziif you have virtualbox guest additions installed, you should be able to check a box in settings to share a folder. You can indicate which folder01:05
linos__b-yeezi, can I uninstall and reinstall samba?01:06
linos__b-yeezi, I think my smb file is screwed up01:06
b-yeeziOf course you can, but I don't know if that will fix your problem. What is the problem?01:07
YankDownUnderlinos__: You can use "dpkg" to reconfigure Samba if you think you've screwed it up.01:07
naccfullstack: probably xserver-xorg is what you're looking for (or something similar)01:07
fullstackthanks01:08
naccfullstack: although installing X on a server makes me want to know why you need it :)01:08
nacclinos__: what are you trying to do ('connect linux vm to windows pc' is rather general -- do you mean you want remote desktop? do you want to share files?)01:09
vjacobBashing-om, thanks for the tip, tried it, doesnt change the situation on this configuration, but it might be useful ahead01:16

fullstacknacc, and I just got a new laptop today (Ideapad 300 ) and got rid of Windows01:22
fullstackso now I am half way done installing Xwindows and Fluxbox. it also supports VMX01:23
fullstackI will install Kubernetes, VS Code, Intellij IDEA Webstorm, and node.js/angular stuff I need01:23
fullstackI need to figure out the Intel driver for X11 in a bit. Hopefully there's some automatic detection command :)01:24
YankDownUnderfullstack: Just wondering - you *do* know that you can install a complete desktop if you so desire, right? Just wondering...01:24
Bashing-omvjacob: :) Little things can be good to know .01:24
fullstackYes I just don't have tha patience to download the USB Image for the full desktop. Like I said I'm on slow DSL, it would take over night.01:24
YankDownUnderfullstack: You don't need to download the full USB, mate...you can do an "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" kinda thingo, eh...01:25
linos__is there a reason I cannot reinstall samba?  I'm receiving error: E:Internal Error, No file name for samba:amd6401:25

pilapodapostacheCan I get a hand? I installed an application called Platformio (based off Atom text editor) and I can't uninstall it. I can't find a "add remove programs" derivative a la Windows...01:27
xanguaAnd you installed it how...?01:28
pilapodapostacheI believe it was a downloaded package from their website01:28
pilapodapostacheIt was a while ago, I can't remember.01:28
pilapodapostacheStuff like this I'd reinstall Ubuntu but I'd like to at least keep this os for a while longer01:29
pilapodapostacheGoogling brings up their documentation where I type in terminal "platformio platforms uninstall PLATFORM" but my terminal doesn't recognize "platformio"01:29
YankDownUnderpilapodapostache: Is it safe to assume you've read the docs on their website as to how to remove the package - since in most instances "Installation instructions" also come with "Un-installation instructions"?01:30

ahrc333ffGuy1524: sudo apt-get update -y && apt-get dist-upgrade -y <-- Note: the '-y' option will automatically insert 'yes' for you in response to all the questions. so, if you don't want that, don't use the -y option01:46

fullstackhow do i upgrade to kernel 4 in 14.04 LTS? is that even possible?01:47
thane1all programs crash anytime, anybody having similar issues?01:48
thane1with recent update01:48
YankDownUnderthane1: What exactly is going on? I'm not clear on what you're saying aside from "everything is crashing"?01:49
thane1my pc encounters a kernel oops too often01:49
ahrc333ffthane1: can you provide context, or an example?01:49
thane1yes01:50
dave0x6dIs there a reason why ports.ubuntu.com seems to go down so often?01:50
YankDownUnderdave0x6d: Either high traffic or DNS...01:51
thane1like firefox closes, ubuntu goes inpanic mode, crash reports are generated01:51
dave0x6dYankDownUnder: the IP didn't change and it was completely rejecting connections -=\01:51
YankDownUnderthane1: Not very specific - however, something that I would be wondering is if you've got the proper video drivers installed, and as well, if you've got all the required "third party" drivers installed...01:52
thane1yes, have a look http://ctrlv.in/80767601:52
YankDownUnderdave0x6d: If it's rejecting connections, then that tells you that the server had reached it's maximum amount of connections, hmm...01:52
dave0x6dheh, I guess.01:53
YankDownUnderthane1: That would be telling me that there is something missing - as in a driver that allows the kernel to communicate to the CPU...hmm...01:53
thane1its not that, its working fine for years01:54
ahrc333ffthane1: this isn't a specific fix, but have you made any recewnt installrs or updates?01:55
ahrc333ffit might be worth apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade01:55
YankDownUnderthane1: Let's be logical for a moment, shall we? What has been installed/changed/modified since it was "working fine" to this point where "everything is crashing"?01:56
thane1yes,which came with deault updates, thats it01:56
ahrc333ffthane1: maybe something was corrupted in that process...01:56
thane1YankDownUnder: recent update maybe01:57
YankDownUnderahrc333ff: Sounds like a "bingo!" in that, eh....01:57
ahrc333ffYankDownUnder: maybe so :) I'm still pretty noob and just throw crap at the wall until it sticks. The fun is the journey!01:57
YankDownUnderthane1: Here's some things to quickly think about doing => 1.) In a terminal run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" => 2.) Reboot. After that, in a terminal, type: "sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" => follow any directions, probably reboot again...01:58
ahrc333ffOh, also add the '-f' option to fix any broken packages.01:58
thane1ahrc333ff: i think problem is with new kernel update01:58
thane1yes01:58

TylerWhitneyHi good ubuntu folks. I attempted to upgrade my server from 14.04 to 16.04 tonight and the installation failed. When I try to get things working again with the "apt-get -f dist-upgrade" command to the packages it fails on "util-linux" package with "insserv: Service mountdevsubfs has to be enabled to start service hwclock" ... while I have a backup, I figured I'd play around with this botched system as a learning experience02:10
TylerWhitneyany thoughts?02:11
YankDownUnderTylerWhitney: If anything,  you might want to pose this question in the #ubuntu-server channel...I'm fairly certain you might get a better/faster response there, hmm...02:12
TylerWhitney@YankDownUnder: thanks for that suggestion, I just cross-posted it over there02:12
YankDownUnderTylerWhitney: And is it safe to assume that you've re-traced your upgrade/update again - starting from the beginning - just to make sure, hmm...?02:13
TylerWhitneyYankDownUnder: do you mean re-running each command? For instance, I started with a "do-release-upgrade" which "succeeded" but with errors it stated02:15
YankDownUnderTylerWhitney: Right oh - was just confirming that, mate.02:16
TylerWhitneyYankDownUnder: Yes, I went through each again, of course now it thinks its at 16.06, which technically it is, but with packages/apt in a half installed state02:17
YankDownUnderTylerWhitney: And you've also done a "sudo apt-get -f install" - just to see if that assists in repairing the installation/upgrade?02:18
TylerWhitneyYankDownUnder: Yup! Tried that one too. Same error as when I tried "apt-get -f dist-upgrade"02:19
YankDownUnderTylerWhitney: Fair enough.02:20

Ben64use recovery mode or a console to do "sudo mkdir /tmp"02:51
Guest90834Ben64: I tried to recreate but it doesn't fix it02:52
Ben64did you create the directory02:52
Guest90834I used sudo rm -R /tmp/02:52
Guest90834went into tty and typed mkdir /tmp02:53
antonio2Chasinglogic: I'm now at the recovery menu. What should I try?  Resume normal didn't work.02:53
chasinglogicMonona a unix socket is essentially a file that can "simulate" (for lack of a better word) network communication, it's only available locally. A port can be used over a network02:53
chasinglogicantonio2 an older kernel didn't work?02:53
Ben64Guest90834: and... did it make the directory02:53
Mononachasinglogic: Got it, thanks.  I'm going to be using this locally, so that's cool.02:54

salohostHello, guys. Is it safe to install random deb package if i do not plan to run it as root?03:06
rypervencheGuest90834: The sticky bit doesn't let other users delete your files. It's set that way on all distros.03:06

rypervencheYep.03:06
Guest90834i'll be more careful with sudo03:06

Guest90834but thx guys. he just wanted to ruin my day and have a good laughter out of it03:11
rypervencheGuest90834: Nope, but it's just a normal folder with 1777 permissions on it, usually. Sometimes it's in RAM.03:11
Ben64maybe he said /tmp/*03:11
rypervencheGuest90834: Yeah, he could have just been mistaken.03:11

antonio222This was chasinglogics last reply to me " (chasinglogic) antonio2 you're on 14.04 so it's SysV init (my fault I thought you were on 16.04 for some reason) based on what I saw it's boiled down to X11 not starting right, when it gets to the black screen try pressing ctrl+alt+F(try a couple of the Fkeys) and see if you get a text log in prompt, if not then you'll need a Live CD to troubleshoot further. Ok I'm for real gone this tim03:55
EvilEpochGreetings to all, I am The EvilEpoch03:55
YankDownUnderantonio222: What was installed/updated/changed since you last booted properly?03:56

baymanhow do i check all services enabled to start automatically at boot on 16.04?03:58
antonio222Yankdownunder: I don't think anything was installed.  Work fine yesterday.  Broken today.03:58
YankDownUnderantonio222: Something to consider - this being a laptop - have you thought to go through all of the BIOS settings - just to make sure that the CMOS/BIOS settings are not corrupt - sometimes batteries (CMOS batteries) tend to freak things out when they're dying...and as well, is there anything plugged in whilst you're booting that should not be plugged in?03:59
madsabayman, you can look in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants04:01
madsaanything symlinked there will start on boot04:01
madsathere's probably a better way though...04:01
antonio222Yankdownunder: nada04:03
YankDownUnderantonio222: Therefore, firstly, power off the machine, and carefully look through your BIOS. Secondly, when you boot up, hit "Esc" so that you see the initial Ubuntu boot menu...see if you're booting into the correct kernel...thirdly, if things continue to "hose up", then there is a rescue that can be done, eh? Hmm.04:05
antonio222Argh04:06
YankDownUnderantonio222: Patience and process.04:06
ubuntulalais there a way to put the desktop install into text mode like the server installer so i can partition my software raid properly?04:06
=== raspberr_ is now known as raspberrypifan
antonio222Yankdownunder how can I check in bios for cmos errors?04:11
YankDownUnderubuntulala: Why not use the LiveUSB to do the partitioning, and then do the installation after that - or, as well, during the installation you're given the option to manually partition drives...hmm?04:11
ubuntulalai can't see a way to set up software raid with LiveUSB04:11
ubuntulalawhen you install server in manual mode it gives the raid option, i don't see that anywhere in desktop install04:12
YankDownUnderantonio222: Mate, I don't know your machine - YOU should know your machine - check all the settings - make sure they're proper - when you're happy with that, obviously, save the settings and test booting into your system If that fails, then reboot, and hit "Esc" so that you see the actual Ubuntu boot menu (grub2) - and make sure you're booting into the right kernel...04:12
ubuntulalathe desktop manual mode is crippled, it doesn't have the raid option04:12
ubuntulalamaybe i just have to install server and add desktop manually04:13
antonio222Yankdownunder how can I make sure its loading the right kernel?04:13
antonio222The one at the top is 3.13.0-7-87-generic04:14
YankDownUnderantonio222: If anything, there would be several different kernel versions listed.04:14
YankDownUnder3.13? Mmm...04:14
YankDownUnderantonio222: So you've tried booting again and it did the same - it hung - or are you going to try that now?04:15

baymanhow to see all apt packages installed?04:16
antonio222Yankdownunder222 IV04:16
cburke_YankDownUnder, OK04:17
antonio222Yankdownunder I've tried numerous ones from that screen.  None are working. Chasinglogic said it looks like x11 isn't starting up properly04:17
madsabayman, run dpkg -l04:18
cburke_YankDownUnder, I do not know IRC etiquette. Last time I was on an IRC channel I trolled until I was b&04:18
YankDownUnderantonio222: If "X" is not starting properly, try this...let the system boot to where it appears to be "hung"...then hit "CTRL+ALT+F1" - see if that takes you to a console login...hmm?04:18
baymanhow to check available packages from my distro?04:19
antonio222It does take me to a text login.  Tried that earlier04:19
YankDownUndercburke_: The "idea" is to state  your issue, then, well, wait.04:19
cburke_YankDownUnder, OK, what am I waiting for? Is there a 'bump' on irc?04:19
YankDownUnderantonio222: Right...so it DOES take you to a text...right...well, what would be the presumably best thing to do then - is to "login" at the console...can you do that now?04:20
antonio222Yankdownunder: here's what happens https://youtu.be/aF_j4f5eT2804:23
YankDownUnderantonio222: ARgh...I don't want to watch videos, bro...I *am* taking the time to try to help...please, just login if you can, hmm?04:23
antonio222How do I login?04:23
antonio222With my ubuntu login?04:24
YankDownUnderantonio222: When you're at the "console" login, yes, your Ubuntu login stuff...04:24
antonio222Telling me login is incorrect.  I haven't changed my password in 2 years04:25
cburke_antonio222, is there a prompt that lets you log in or is it just spamming that message about disks over and over?04:25
cburke_antonio222, audio quality is very difficult to hear what you're saying, btw04:26
YankDownUnderantonio222: And you're using your proper username, proper password, hmm?04:26
antonio222If I hit enter it goes to Pam-laptop login:04:26
antonio222If I don't type for a while they asking for cache data failed message pops up04:27
YankDownUnderantonio222: The system requires a username and a password. Unless you know the "root" login password...04:27

antonio222I've already gone I to04:37
antonio222I've already gone into recovery mode...nit sure what to do04:37
YankDownUnderantonio222: Ok, you're not really telling me heaps...I am blind, so if you don't tell me exactly what you're doing, or where you're at, I can't really "see". Hmm. So, that being said, please do tell...04:38

YankDownUnderantonio222: So, what would be the best thing to do is to get back to the recovery console...hmm?05:01

toni1Hello, I have a pretty severe problem. For a while now, I've been having trouble installing packages, and there are certain packages (libreoffice e.g.) that I can't get to work at all.07:56
toni1So I decided to try reinstalling all my packages.07:57
toni1Problem is, I can't reinstall debconf, and it tells me that the package is in a bad way07:57
ikoniawhy are you re-installing all your packages07:57
ikoniathats never going to work07:57
ikoniajust fix the packages that are broken/causing conflict (no doubt from a PPA)07:58
frudoikonia: if some reason root disk full but not to identify its serious problem...07:58
toni1the problem is, whenever I try installing a package, it tells me it canÄt be configured. I then have to manually remove the scripts in /var/lib/dpkg/info and then redo the install07:59
toni1which worked for most packages, but not for all07:59
ikoniatoni1: so the package logs will normally show you why it can't be configured07:59

EriC^^np08:24
ikoniatoni1: no, remove the packages that depend on the missing/failed dependencies08:24
ikoniatoni1: I suspect this is because you've used PPA's08:25
toni1ikonia: I tried this. It said "fontconfig depends on fontconfig-config", so I checked that fontconfig isn't essential and tried removing. But it returns an error code for debconf still: "status half-configured debconf:all 1.5.58ubuntu1"08:27

Seveastoni1: generally, when you mess about in /var/lib/dpkg/info, you will break things. Don't do it.08:46

ILoveUbuntuYou2can I preface this by saying that I'm a seasoned Gentoo and Arch user and a Technical Solutions Engineer...11:12
ikoniaILoveUbuntuYou2: and yet you seem unable to clearly communicate a problem to the point where we have to use yes/no responses11:13
ikoniaILoveUbuntuYou2: is the greeter the greeter application you expected yes/no11:13
ILoveUbuntuYou2sorry for the attitude I was hoping to help my friend but it seems package versions or some crazy Ubuntu thing is just... I duno.. frustrating.11:13
jasondockersikonia, stop attacking him.11:13
ikoniajasondockers: no-one is attacking him, I'm trying to get info11:13
ILoveUbuntuYou2I used to run Ubuntu but kept having problems like this, brought back my Windows PTSD11:13
ikoniaILoveUbuntuYou2: you keep talking - and not answering the questoins I'm asking11:13
ikoniaI will no longer attempt to help you11:13
ILoveUbuntuYou2because you're trolling me :)11:13
ikoniai'm not11:14
ikoniaI'm trying to get solid info11:14
ILoveUbuntuYou2lol11:14
ILoveUbuntuYou2so anyways... anyone have latest 16.04 and install Gnome?11:14
ikoniaI run gnome on 16.04 for compatability testing with other gnome releases on other distros11:14
ILoveUbuntuYou2or KDE for that matter?11:14
DesuILoveUbuntuYou2: I would get the errors and fix the actual problem with the greeter first11:15
mcphailILoveUbuntuYou2: have you installed the ubuntu-gnome-desktop metapackage?11:15
DesuILoveUbuntuYou2: or switch to gdm11:15
ILoveUbuntuYou2you want me to fix the Ubuntu problem?11:15
Triffid_HunterILoveUbuntuYou2: heh I'm a gentoo user too, I find ubuntu rather frustrating as well..11:15
* joelio runs gnome fine - I use ubuntu-gnome-desktop metapackage11:15
ILoveUbuntuYou2GDM displays a grey screen with nothing to do11:15
ILoveUbuntuYou2I drop to TTY and restart GDM nothing... after literally 2 hours of journalctl -xe and debugging I end up with unintelligible issues that aren't just a simple fi11:16
ILoveUbuntuYou2I'm guessing outdated packages?11:16
ILoveUbuntuYou2...11:16
ikoniayou're guessing wrong11:16
ILoveUbuntuYou2well definitely outdated packages just whether or not that's the problem is undetermined :)11:17
ikoniano11:17
ikoniathey are not out dated11:17
ILoveUbuntuYou2LOL11:17
ikoniaI'm not laughing11:17
ILoveUbuntuYou2riiiiight11:17
ILoveUbuntuYou2you should be11:17
ILoveUbuntuYou2ok so I'm assuming no one here is successfully running Gnome on Ubuntu 16.04?11:18
ikoniaalready told you "yes"11:18
joelioI just said I awas11:18
joelioyes11:18
ikoniaand there is the ubuntu-gnome release11:18
ILoveUbuntuYou2ahhh that's right there's an ignore command lol11:18
Triffid_HunterILoveUbuntuYou2: ubuntu always has outdated packages, in the name of 'stability'11:18
mcphailILoveUbuntuYou2: it sounds as if you have reached the bounds of your competence. If you want Ubuntu to configure gnome and greeter, run the ubuntu-gnome-desktop metapackage. If you feel you can configure it yourself, just install the gnome package11:18
ikoniait's not outdated11:18
ILoveUbuntuYou2mcphail: ... not trying to be rude or mean I'm just extremely frustrated... if the bounds of my competency are installing and configuring a Gentoo system or Arch from bare bones to full blown but I can't simply "sudo apt-get install gnome gnome-shell lightdm && sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm && sudo systemctl enable lightdm" and it works then wtf is going on?11:19
joelioI deployed it to over 100 desktops at old job - it degfinitely works11:20
joelioif you use the metapackage too - even better11:20
ILoveUbuntuYou2pardon the language... when you hide complexity and make choices for the user there are consequences and those consequences are... things not working11:20
joelioor you could install the right pacakage11:20
ILoveUbuntuYou2joelio: thank you for some good feedback, I will have him try the meta packages11:20
mcphailILoveUbuntuYou2: you have been given your solution. ubuntu is not arch or gentoo, and you should not expect it to behave the same way11:20
ikoniabeing able to type "emerge" does mean you are skilled or experience11:21
ILoveUbuntuYou2well its hard to tell what the "right" package is when everyone and there brother has an ubuntu forum with "the way to install Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 16.04" would prefer a single cohesive manual or set of instructions...11:21
ikoniaso the quicker that stops getting posted as bragging rights, the quicker you'll move forward11:21
ILoveUbuntuYou2I don't expect it to behand like Arch or Gentoo I expect to install gnome via a package manager and it works :)11:21
joeliohttp://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/ubuntu-gnome-desktop is what you want11:21
ILoveUbuntuYou2behave**11:21
rahtgazILoveUbuntuYou2: don't mind the apologists, you are right. Ubuntu makes it hard to change the underlying DE and that's just a fact. HOwever, it does so for the good reasons. BUt in any case, that's that11:21
joeliono, it really doesn't - just install the right metapackage and away you go11:22
mcphailILoveUbuntuYou2: ubuntu follows the "debian way", which predates arch and gentoo11:22
joeliothere are preseed multiselects that wrap up all that too11:22
ILoveUbuntuYou2thank you rahtgaz I appreciate the sentimate. Feels my pain :)11:22
joelioso you can easily install wheatever desktop11:22
joelioit's not that hard, just use the right installer11:22
joeliothe live will just give you unity11:22
joelioso either use alternate and install gnome, or use live and install gnome using the http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/ubuntu-gnome-desktop pacage11:22
joelioeasy11:23
ILoveUbuntuYou2If I were physically with my friend (he's 3000 miles away and affraid of a terminal) I would just grab gnubuntu or ubuntu gnome or whichever and install it via USB and be done with it all11:23
ILoveUbuntuYou2but in that event I would instead install Arch so he could have more choice and help him manage it.11:23
joeliosure, well I've told you the easy way to do it11:23
ikoniaand yet you've just said he's scared of the terminal11:23
ikoniaILoveUbuntuYou2: the quicker you stop this arch bragging nonsense and focus on giving info on your problem and working wiht people the better you'll be11:24
rahtgazif that was so easy, we wouldn't need lubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu-mate ubuntu-gnome, etc. But you know... it's always easy, until it breaks and you are left on irc channels trying to fix your easy installation. God, I hate easy advice11:24
ikoniaif you want to continue to use this arch is great stuff, do it in another channel11:24
mcphailCan we consider this question closed and move on, without having a debate on packaging philosophy?11:24
ILoveUbuntuYou2ubuntu-gnome-desktop package will be good yes? Is there a way to "switch" from one Ubuntu to another for instance from "Vanilla" to "Kubuntu". Is this the meta package you are refering to?11:24
ikoniayes11:24
joeliorahtgaz: those distros *are* the metapackages essentially.. just bundled up11:24
ikoniait's just the desktop11:24
ILoveUbuntuYou2I'm sorry mcphail I'll try to keep my questions more specific and un-opinionated. Frustration is just at a peak. My apologies.11:25
ikoniakubuntu-desktop ubuntu-gnome-desktop xubuntu-desktop11:25
ILoveUbuntuYou2Thank you joelio for being so helpful and "dealing" with my frustration. It is much appreciated.11:25
mcphailILoveUbuntuYou2: how it all works out for you11:25
christian_Hi is it advisable to install Xfce 4.12 in Xubuntu 14.04.3?11:25
ikoniachristian_: what do you mean ?11:26
ikoniachristian_: is there a package for xfce 4.12 ?11:26
ILoveUbuntuYou2I'm really refraining from what I want to say, this is another reason I'm so frustrated. Because I want to be that a-hole troll that bashes Ubuntu but it is "good" for the average user who doesn't want to switch out the "underlying" DE.11:26
christian_I saw a tutorial in linuxscoop on how to install the latest stable 4.1211:27
ILoveUbuntuYou2I swear I'm not normally like this :) Just when I start having my Windows PTSD all over again.11:27
ikoniachristian_: I advise you stay clear of that11:27
ikoniachristian_: I advise you to use the packages xubuntu provides for you11:27
christian_ikonia_: would something happen if I install 4.12?11:27
ikoniathere is no promises it would work, be compatible and it certainly wouldn't be supported11:28
ikoniachristian_: use the packages provided by xubuntu11:28
EriC^^!info xfce11:28
ubottuPackage xfce does not exist in xenial11:28
ILoveUbuntuYou2Christian, I'm assuming ikonia is trolling you but I wouldn't know because I ignored him. /ignore ikonia if you are being trolled too11:28
EriC^^!info xfce411:28
ubottuxfce4 (source: xfce4): Meta-package for the Xfce Lightweight Desktop Environment. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.12.2 (xenial), package size 4 kB, installed size 16 kB11:28
EriC^^christian_: why don't you upgrade to 16.04?11:28
EriC^^it has 4.12 by default11:28
mcphailILoveUbuntuYou2: please behave11:28
christian_I have issues in the kernel 16.04 uses11:29
EriC^^ah11:29
EriC^^what issues?11:29
christian_yes I know its installed by default11:29
mcphailikonia: thanks11:29
christian_in wine when I installed 16.04 there is something wrong when Im playing AOE3 and NFS MW(2005)11:30
EriC^^oh11:31
EriC^^christian_: did you try a mainline kernel?11:31
christian_so Im keeping linux kernel 3.19 installed in Xubuntu 14.04.311:31
christian_EriC^^_: Like the latest kernel?11:32
MonkeyDustchristian_  also: .4 is the latest 14.0411:32
EriC^^!mainline | christian_ yes11:32
ubottuchristian_ yes: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds11:32
christian_MonkeyDust_: Yes but it uses kernel 4.2 from Ubuntu Wily HWE... But still it causes ugly glitches in Wine when I play them said games11:34
Cisco3560-48PS-SHello, I am here to troll the channel.11:35

HelpMePLZHow install Minimal Ubuntu with OpenBox?11:36
christian_EriC^^_:I would probably install 16.04.1 when it comes out11:37
JustLoveUbuntuOkHows everyone doing today/tonight/this-morning?11:37
EriC^^christian_: these are the mainline kernels http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D11:38
christian_EriC^^_: How do you install them? Are they in a certain repositry that they could be auto updated by the moderator/maintainer?11:39
EriC^^christian_: you download the .deb files and install them using dpkg, they'll remain on the pc and the normal kernels keep getting updated too11:40
EriC^^but you'll be using the one you installed, unless you keep manually updating, personally i'm using 4.6rc6 cause i had suspend issues with 16.04, haven't really upgraded it since the install and it's working good11:41
christian_EriC^^_: And the kernel packages will then get synced with my repos right?11:41
EriC^^synced?11:42
AlphaAndOmegaIs snappy available for desktop?11:42
EriC^^there won't be conflicts11:42
EriC^^christian_: you need to install the headers package though, it's very important for other software11:43

christian_EriC^^_: Im reading the new release of graphics stack in Intel Linux page11:43

EriC^^pleaseeheelp: did you try booting with nomodeset?11:44
christian_the probably fix the i965 bug that causes glitches in my wine games11:44
pleaseeheelpno11:44
pleaseeheelphow do i do that11:44
EriC^^!nomodeset | pleaseeheelp11:44
ubottupleaseeheelp: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter11:44
pleaseeheelpI tried disabling splash screen11:44
pleaseeheelpbut im still getting it11:44
christian_EriC^^_: thanks sir11:45
EriC^^christian_: no problem11:45
pleaseeheelpEric^^: after booting I choose ubuntu and the screen goes blank/purpleish11:45
EriC^^pleaseeheelp: ubuntu hasn't been installed yet on the pc?11:45
pleaseeheelpEric^^: I've disabled the quiet splash and it still goes to that damn screen11:46
christian_EriC^^_: Thats the only thing stopping me from upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04 is the graphics glitches Im experiencing in wine11:46
pleaseeheelpalthough it shouldnt11:46
EriC^^pleaseeheelp: try adding "nomodeset" instead of quiet splash11:46
EriC^^or try booting into recovery mode from advanced options and troubleshoot from there11:47
tomoguiGreetings everyone. I have a little problem here and wonder if you guys/girls might be able to help me.. I just recently installed ubuntu 16.04 on my laptop. I have a problem connecting with the Wi-Fi. When I try to connect to my network i get prompted to enter the key, but after that nothing happens and it won't connect. Can any of you help me out?11:47
pleaseeheelpEric^^: it has been installed, I was working on that laptop yesterday with no problem, but today after restarting it it doesnt work anyomre11:48
EriC^^pleaseeheelp: it's probably a graphics issue11:49
EriC^^did you update or do anything else?11:49
christian_EriC^^_: I thought probably they removed the driver of intel 965q gpu in kernel 4.411:49
AlphaAndOmegaAnyone have success using SDDM on Ubuntu?11:49
pleaseeheelpEric^^: I'm not sure I just installed the automatic update stuff11:49
pleaseeheelpEric^^: aside from that I didn't do anything that could have caused that, just some programming11:50
AlphaAndOmegaI haven't tried SDDM yet but I've used it before and liked it11:50
EriC^^christian_: no idea about that11:50
pleaseeheelpEric^^: so should i try this NOMODESET?11:50
EriC^^pleaseeheelp: yeah11:50
EriC^^christian_: newer kernel is worth a shot i guess, it's easy to install and if it doesn't work out just a matter of purging it11:51
AlphaAndOmegaSo are Snappy packages available on Desktop? I like the idea of snaps. Are we switching to them soon and ditching debs or what?11:51
christian_EriC^^_: Ok sir I would try that11:51
MonkeyDust!snappy | AlphaAndOmega11:52
ubottuAlphaAndOmega: Ubuntu Core is a rendition of Ubuntu with transactional updates using "snappy". For discussion and support, please visit #snappy and see http://www.ubuntu.com/snappy/11:52
AlphaAndOmegaAren't snaps kind of like Appliance firmwares where the application is like an "image" that isn't changeable?11:52
k1lAlphaAndOmega: yes, since 16.04 they are available and no, they are not going to remove debs11:52
AlphaAndOmegatransactional updates! thats the words I was looking for.11:52
AlphaAndOmegaThanks ubottu!11:52

DarkwellHey there , I choosed other install option to be able to install ubuntu 14.04 again after an accedental overwrite of /etc... I picked partitions as it was before... Now I wonder if the instsller will overwrite the /home dir or if its just safe ?15:21
joeliosamadhi_: yea, so if you don't need OSD live, then record desktop using tool of choice (personally I'd go ffmpeg, but that's not a massive issue). Then use a non-linear editor to add captions. Lightworks has a free license now http://www.lwks.com/, but others (LiVES, Openshot etc) could work15:22
xanguaDarkwell: do you have a separate partition for /home?15:22
joeliosamadhi_:  Pitivi is the gnome one15:22
Danne-vlt: sent it over in pm to you15:23
DarkwellThe /home has too much data for mu usb stick to backup , so i picked non formatting install15:23

gdev which filesystem should i go for mainly video content and pictures?  (80% ubuntu in use, 20% other, should be able to watch on win7 aswell).  Ext3/4?  I thought of not using NTFS because it slows down on lnx machines16:10
naccgdev: NTFS is a windows filesystem16:10
Fuchsgdev: if both have to read and write: maybe ExFat, recent Ubuntu versions can do that ootb with a userspace driver, Windows newer than XP should be able to do it ootb as well16:11
rypervenchegdev: You can do ext4 and then create a samba mount to access it from Windows.16:11
Fuchsgdev: to access Ext on Windows you'd need an additional driver16:11
Fuchsgdev: in either case: do not use any of these for partitions that are used by linux, such as the / or /home ones16:12
naccgdev: oh you meant the same machine booted to either ubuntu or windows?16:12

mrinalok, is semiconductor storage better than HDD ?16:47
mrinalif so, how ?16:47
compdocssd is much faster, but moreexpensive and smaller. hdd is still good for large storage16:47

mrinalok, but i'm told that SD storage wastes space16:48

jerichowasahoaxWhat's the correct way to tell apt to never ever touch a specific file on my filesystem, regardless of what packages say to do18:13
MonkeyDustjerichowasahoax  i guess 'pinning' can do that18:13

ducassejerichowasahoax: if you really have to, use chattr +i, but i  guess the package system will be unhappy.18:22
jerichowasahoaxducasse: i try to avoid directly contradicting the package system without at least trying to tell it first18:23
jerichowasahoaxducasse: just so it doesn't overwrite my changes with a system update (or worse, self destruct and leave my entire operating system in ruins)18:23

aeiro_hi. i am trying to install xubuntu 16.04 lts. i installed a version of xubuntu before and i would like to continue using my /home partition. i am in the installation wizard right now and formated my root partition to use it as a new one. how can i specify my current home as my future home partition19:05
YankDownUnderaeiro_: Did you back up your /home directories prior?19:07
MisterMomaeiro_, select it as your home partition just dont format it and make sure your / and home are the same format ext3 or ext4 or wharever you are using19:07
MisterMomyes and backup is good idea19:08
CodeMouse92I'm looking at an Ubuntu 16.04 (Toshiba Satellite) laptop, up-to-date. The mouse (any mouse - not hardware related) is intermittently not working, in that one cannot click. The mouse still moves in those cases. How do I fix this?19:08
OerHeksLJHSLDJHSDLJH, 1st url is full screen F11, and no open document? last screen evince ? here it gives a name on the panelbar fine19:08
YankDownUnderCodeMouse92: The "glide pad" mouse? Or an external mouse?19:09
CodeMouse92Both.19:09
CodeMouse92But mainly external mouse, regardless of actual mouse or port.19:10
CodeMouse92It started about 4 days ago.19:10
YankDownUnderCodeMouse92: Chrome running?19:10
CodeMouse92Yes19:10
YankDownUnderCodeMouse92: There ya go.19:10
CodeMouse92Really? Will the same problem occur with, say, Opera?19:10
aeiro_YankDownUnder: i made a backup19:11
YankDownUnderCodeMouse92: No - it seems to be an issue with Chrome/Chromium - however, something *I* have found is that IF the bluetooth is turned off whilst Chrome is working, the mouse appears to work "normally" again...19:11
YankDownUnderaeiro_: As per what MisterMom stated...follow that path19:11
CodeMouse92YankDownUnder: So - a possible interaction between Chrome and Bluetooth19:12
akikMisterMom: there's no requirement that / and /home need to be the same file system type19:12
CodeMouse92YankDownUnder: No dice - Bluetooth was already off.19:12
aeiro_MisterMom: somehow i think i am not able to select this partition as my home... i am able to select a file system for it, but i am not quite getting it how to continue - https://img3.picload.org/image/rraiwpwr/bildschirmfoto_2016-07-21_18-1.png /dev/sda6 is my home, /dev/sda5 is my root19:12
YankDownUnderCodeMouse92: Chrome - definitely yes - and it's not just "on linux" as it affects Mac OSX as well...oddly enough...19:12
CodeMouse92Weirdness. Okay, I'll put Opera on there :\19:13
CodeMouse92Thank you for the info!19:13
YankDownUnderCodeMouse92: It's worth a "Google" - as you'll find this issue is NOT new, nor is it "isolated"19:13
akikaeiro_: use "benutzen als" and select your file system type19:13
aeiro_akik: although my home is already an ext4?19:14
akikaeiro_: then select ext4 ?19:14
aeiro_akik: this will not damage anything?19:14
akikaeiro_: no, it will just mount the partition at /home. just don't forat it19:14

elichai2`tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,size=2G,mode=1777 0 0`19:25

elichai2ducasse, alkisg19:28
YankDownUnderdr4c4n: Not familiar with pfsense - however, that would appear to be the logical process19:28

alkisgmktemp -d, sorry19:29
elichai2alkisg, I didn't understood :\ what does that line does?19:29
dr4c4nYankDownUnder: I'll try the digital ocean one. It's good, but it's part of a 7 part series, and the wealth of information confuses me as to what I should be creating19:29
alkisgelichai2: mktemp -d creates a temp dir for you, with a unique name, so you can use that instead of /tmp directly19:30
YankDownUnderdr4c4n: The entire "series" is worth a read. "Plan the work, work the plan." :)19:30
elichai2so where should I put that line?19:30
elichai2(because i'll need to rerun it every time)19:30
elichai2maybe i'll just add `mkdir /tmp/google-chrome` inside .bashrc19:30
alkisgIn the script that we proposed, (10:25:26 μμ) alkisg: OK then maybe just create a wrapper in /usr/local/bin/google-chrome to do what you want, and then exec /usr/bin/google-chrome "$@"...19:30
dr4c4nYankDownUnder: thanks19:31
ducasseelichai2: or put the script in ~/bin, then you can back it up with the rest of your homedir on reinstalls etc.19:32

acidchildI am using fluxbox as my WM. When i click on any application that "opens in filemanager" i.e. owncloud client, etc. it fires up Gnome (unity?) in the background. how do i change the default filemanager or stop this behavior?20:09
alkisgjamie_1: is vidyo a proprietary software? Can't you tell them not to depend on libqt4-gui?20:09

acidchildnope YankDownUnder.20:10
alkisgjamie_1: I doubt that they won't want to support ubuntu 16.04... especially when it's something as easy as modifying a dependency20:10
acidchildI'd assume it's a MIME type thing, maybe a dpkg-reconfigure maybe.20:11
alkisgjamie_1: it shouldn't be hard to create a fake package that does that though, if they won't do it for you20:11

Ben64bulletxt|2: honestly, at this point it's probably easier to install 16.04 fresh20:15
alkisgjamie_1: if vidyo depends on it, it sounds like it's using x1120:15
alkisgjamie_1: so while you might be using wayland, vidyo will still use x1120:15
bulletxt|2nacc: I mean, the do-release upgrade starts in screen mode and I dont' know how to scroll20:15
jamie_1alkisg: im on gnome3.2 which uses wayland by default now20:15
bulletxt|2Ben64: what if I instll 12.04 without formatting? will that work? will I use the OS users?20:15
TroelsLHey - I'm in a bit of a pickle and wondered what the right (or possibly easiest) way of solving the following is: I'm trying to rsync from an Ubuntu server to my nas for backup. I've setup my usr@ubuntu with passwordless ssh to the nas. However, the stuff I'm trying to back up is not readable by usr as it will be created by various services. How would you solve this?20:15
Ben64bulletxt|2: 12.04 is old now too, 16.04 is what you want20:16
alkisgjamie_1: ok, but of course not all apps support wayland, and vidyo sounds like it still supports only x1120:16
bulletxt|2Ben64: but will it work? or will I use my users in the OS?20:16
jamie_1alkisg: most of everyone doesnt support wayland yet :/20:16
Ben64bulletxt|2: backup, install 16.04, restore user data20:16
alkisgjamie_1: yup, and it's a good reason not to get too excited about defaulting to wayland yet :)20:16
bulletxt|2but I cant stand 10.04 doesnt upgrade to 12.0420:17
bulletxt|2I cant read the erorr its giving cause I cant scroll in "screen" mode, any clue?20:17
naccbulletxt|2: well it probably would have if you had done it when it was still supported :)20:17
Ben6412.04 is still old, you'd have the same problem in 9 months20:17
bulletxt|2I followed the EOL tutorial20:17
jamie_1alkisg: i like wayland, its smooth now and uses a lot less cpu, also i didnt swap it, when i upgraded to gnome 3.2 from gnome 3 it changed everything on its own20:17
nacceolupgrades (to me) are iffy at best20:17
Ben64just install 16.04, you'll save so much efforty20:17
bulletxt|2Ben64: lets fix the current problem, then Ill upgrade 12 too20:17
Ben64how about you install 16.0420:17
bulletxt|2Ben64: no20:17
Ben64why20:18
bulletxt|2its a server its not a toy20:18

tatertotsnewer isn't always better..especially with servers...track record and stability are priority20:19
bulletxt|2Ben64: you make no sense, that's not an excuse for eol not working while canonical says it does20:19
Ben64you didn't keep it running properly, and now you're way behind. jump up to 16.04, learn from this, and keep things working20:19
tatertots16.04's track record is how long now?20:19

Ben64tatertots: 16.04 is hardly bleeding edge20:20
jatt16.04 is production ready20:20
naccbulletxt|2: so not sure what you're referring to20:20
tatertotsfor servers a products track record is key...keyword being 'record'20:20
Ben64tatertots: you have no idea what you're talking about20:21
nacctatertots: i feel like that's neither here nor there20:21
RNevilleHello everyone, just used Clonezilla to make an image of my harddrive onto a second installed HD20:21
tatertotsat least ask if a person might be a amd proprietary driver user before quickly nudging them to 16.0420:21
YankDownUnder"In a perfect world" - one would assume it's best to have a server "auto update"...but "perfect world" does not really happen in real life...hmm...20:22
alkisg(1) He should have upgraded before going EOL. (2) do-release-upgrade should still work and if it doesn't it's a bug that needs fixing. Why can't you agree that both of those can be true?20:22
Ben64tatertots: it's a server20:22
jane_I need help with ubuntu desktop 16.0420:22
jane_anyone on?20:22
Ben64jane_: ask your question, providing as much detail as possible20:22
YankDownUnderjane_: Shoot20:22
RNevillerunning Ubuntu 14.02 , and now I can get my primary boot drive to boot up - grub wants to boot secondary drive (that's an imagine of primary) no matter what I tell bios boot loader to do20:22
nacctatertots: anyone who installs a new version without reading the release notes is already asking for trouble ...20:22
jane_I want to host a public website on ubuntu desktop on my home computer (I will only use it as my hosting) but I am not sure if it'll be secure, what are your thoughts?20:23
circ-user-alwPEhi: i have a pretty solid ubuntu 16.04 host, and i run ubuntu 16.04 guests using the latest virtualbox .  but i have a few issues which i think are down to my graphics card.  should i expect problems with a radeon hd 4650 (rv730 pro) ?20:23
bulletxt|2anyways, does some know how to scroll a "screen" window?20:23
alkisgbulletxt|2: I've seen do-release-upgrade fail numerous times, and in some of them I ended up manually updating the sources to the last version, and just running apt dist-upgrade.20:23
rudysbbqi'm on ubuntu 16, is there a way to disable the minimize animation effect on metacity?20:23
TroelsLI can ask my question another way: Why will 'ssh rsync@nas' not prompt for password, but 'sudo rsync@nas' will.20:23
YankDownUnderjane_: Dynamic DNS...?20:23
naccTroelsL: ssh and sudo are completely different commands20:24
bulletxt|2alkisg: you mean i should put 12.04 repos in my 10.04 and do apt-get dist upgrade^20:24
TroelsLnacc: Ahem. 'sudo ssh rsync@nas'20:24
Ben64bulletxt|2: make sure you backup so if/when that breaks your system you can install 16.0420:24
jane_I'm going to be making the domain go to CloudFlare which will go to my IP and use portforward to allow it to work on ubuntu desktop, will this be secure?20:24
Ben64TroelsL: why would you sudo ssh?20:24
SmilerutHi. When I was unpacking some archives with Ark and when I tried to unpack the next one I got an error saying "failed to locate program unrar on disk". Can anyone help me?20:24
naccTroelsL: is the 'sudo ssh rsync@nas' asking for your local user's password (meaning it's sudo asking for a password not ssh)?20:24
Smilerutthis happens with every archive now20:24
Ben64Smilerut: sudo apt-get install unrar20:25
alkisgbulletxt|2: first, backup everything. Then, if it completely fails, I would try directly with 16.04, not 12.04 => 14.04 => 16.04.... so that I don't have to do the same manual fixes 3 times. If it doesn't work, restore the backup and try to get do-release-upgrade fixed.20:25
SmilerutBen64: ok, but, why did it work but then stop working?20:25
Ben64Smilerut: who knows20:25
circ-user-alwPEwhat is a recommended, cheap but well support graphics card for occasional video playback and virtualbox use?20:25
TroelsLBen64, nacc: I'm using rsync for backup. Added authorized_keys to nas to avoid password prompt. But I need elevated permissions locally to be able to read the files I'm rsyncing. (unless there's a better way)20:25
TroelsLThe goal is to setup a cron job to rsync daily20:26
jane_anyone??20:26
alkisgTroelsL: ssh-copy-id copies the user id to the server, so that ssh doesn't ask for a pass. "sudo ssh-copy-id" would copy the root ssh id, if you had one, so that then "sudo ssh" would work without pass.20:26
YankDownUnderjane_: Are you using or planning to use dynamic dns for this?20:26
alkisgTroelsL: you can use `crontab -e` to create per-user cron jobs20:26
SmilerutBen64: it works now, anyway. Thanks!20:27
akikTroelsL: you need the higher permissions on the source side20:27
bulletxt|2alkisg: if I install 16.04 on top it will desroy all my settings , users etc20:28
jane_do I have to use that??20:28
Ben64bulletxt|2: so can upgrading20:28
akikTroelsL: so maybe "sudo rsync -e ssh ..."20:28
bulletxt|2Ben64: you have no idea of how many ubuntu I upgraded with 0 problems20:28
alkisgbulletxt|2: I usually boot with the live cd, then move * to srv/10.04, then install 16.04, then put back /srv/10.04/home to /home, so that user settings are preserved. For user accounts, I have a tool that migrates them, but sorry it's greek-only.20:29
tatertotshow would i go about getting a older version of smbd on my 16.04 system?....it has smbd version 4.3.9-Ubuntu right now and i need smbd 4.220:29
Ben64bulletxt|2: well good luck then20:29
TroelsLalkisg: already did sudo ssh-copy-id (all keys skipped because they exist). It tries to copy my local users keys again, not the ones in /root/.ssh20:29
nacctatertots: no official way20:29
YankDownUnderjane_: I'm asking you if that's what was part of the plan - either which, if you want to host a website on your machine (local), you'll have to install Apache - as a base...and then you'll have to figure out the rest for DNS (Domain Name Services) - so that your "dns" can be found on the net - does that make sense?20:29
alkisgTroelsL: try: sudo -i. Then, ssh-copy-id etc.20:29
tatertotshttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/LikewiseOpen requires smbd version 4.2 and not a version higher20:30
jane_Yeah, I will be doing that..20:30
YankDownUnderjane_: Good read: http://www.instructables.com/id/Set-up-your-very-own-Web-server/20:30
Ben64tatertots: have you tried it and it failed?20:30
jane_I am making it where my IP will be accessable to the public, however, I've installed xampp on windows and it got hacked, so if I use ubuntu desktop and just install apache and whatever else I need, will this be secure?20:30
nacctatertots: where does it say that?20:31
circ-user-alwPEis there a way of testing if my graphics card is supported by ubuntu?20:31

nacchanjollyinfo: apt-cache info <pkgname>20:31
magkneetoehey everyone20:31
YankDownUnderjane_: You're going to have to learn how to configure your router/modem - and then, as well, make modifications to your internal firewall (UFW)...but it's actually easier than it sounds.20:31
TroelsLalkisg: Thank you! That worked.20:32
jane_I've updated my router so it will allow other people to access it but its the part where I need to to be secure so people can still access the site as a web hosting but cannot gain access to the server20:32

hanjollyinfoInstalled-Size: 17785 what are the units?20:33
jane_is lamp more secure than xampp on windows?20:33
nacctatertots: well, that page is horribly out of date and only applies to precise (afaict)20:33
YankDownUnderjane_: Read up on the Apache installation and configuration - that will be a huge help...and then read up on "UFW" - easy.20:33
YankDownUnderjane_: Yes.20:33
jane_Alright thank you that is all I needed to know.. :)20:33
jane_have a good day!20:33
YankDownUnderjane_: Cheers.20:33
ducassejane_: every time you expose any service to the internet, there is a chance of being hacked. but the default setup is pretty secure.20:33
hanjollyinfoanyone knows the units of the installed size apt-cache show pkg ?20:34
hanjollyinfonacc, know the units?20:34
jane_ducasse: << idk how that works lol but xampp, apparently had a httpd exploit that allows people to access the files.. Is lamp more secure than xampp so that won't happen? I know theres a chance of getting hacked but is lamp more secure so its harder??20:34
hanjollyinfohmmm20:35
alkisghanjollyinfo: apt show package => also has units20:35
ducassejane_: it totally depends on what you do with it :)20:35
jane_ducasse: I'll be hosting a game site on it20:35
ArexHow to add Xorg to autorun?20:35
jane_that uses mysql, phpmyadmin, etc20:35
nacchanjollyinfo: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Installed-Size20:35
ducassejane_: the default is pretty secure, but if you change things you need to understand what your changes do.20:35
jane_okay thank you!20:36
OerHeksjane_, don't hang it on the internet :-)20:36
jane_So it's more secure than xampp and don't have many exploits??20:36
ducassejane_: you can run your lamp stack in a vm or container to isolate it further from your host.20:36
tatertotsif there's no 'official' way to get smbd 4.2 on 16.04 so the ubuntu 16.04 can have the full functionality of PBIS and samba looks like i'm better off with Ubuntu 12.04 or 14.04...wait ooops that 14.04 has too new of a version of smbd also....looks like 12.04  would be the only applicable ubuntu version for the corporate domain and PBIS20:36
hanjollyinfomy ubuntu 16.04 keeps on freezing and did so 4 times today,even though i have new install,on desktop i have 64bit,20:36
tatertotsthanks20:36
nacctatertots: it would appear you should ask PBIS about that, afaict20:37
jane_ducasse: I have a desktop computer that I do not use that I want it as just a hosting server, which is why I was asking if lamp is secure so I can switch to ubuntu from windows20:37
ArexHow to add Xorg to autorun?20:37
tatertotsalready did..they suggest 12.04 also20:37
tatertotsthanks20:37
nacctatertots: ... ok, sounds like you have an answer; hopefully they come up with a better one w/in the next 9 months.20:38
hanjollyinfoshall i use apt upgrade or apt-get upgrade? apt shows in brown color and i am confused whats the difference , and which is better for me? ncc20:38
hanjollyinfoshall i use apt upgrade or apt-get upgrade? apt shows in brown color and i am confused whats the difference , and which is better for me? nacc20:38
nacchanjollyinfo: `apt` is the newer tool, generally recommended now over `apt-get`20:38
ducassejane_: if you use php scripts, for example, those scripts need to be secure also. apache itself is pretty secure, anything you add is the big risk.20:38
=== cigumo_ is now known as cigumo
jane_Yes I am aware of that, however, last time I got hacked, xampp had an exploit where they could view the files and mess with them, which is why I want to be 100% sure that lamp is secure by default and do not have a huge exploit like that.20:39
Bassemhow can i install java20:39
hanjollyinfook nacc,so i guess i will use that20:39
alkisgArex: provide more details, how did you end up with xorg not running? Did you start with the server installation?20:40
hanjollyinfoapt install javac Bassem its there in the askubuntu20:40
ducassejane_: when security holes are found they are typically fixed right away. just keep it updated.20:40
jane_Okay thank you :) I will try it and hopefully won't get hacked again..20:40
jane_I suggest to everyone here not to use xampp if you are right now..20:41
Bassemhanjollyinfo, E: Unable to locate package javac20:41
jane_have a good day!20:41
Arexalkisg, just how to do it please?20:41
ducassejane_: but there is _always_ the chance of unknown holes. the best you can do is update every day.20:41
ducassejane_: good luck! :)20:41
magkneetoeIf i install 16.04 alongside 14.04 can i then look into the files from the other bootable version?20:42
ducasseArex: you need to answer the questions you are asked.20:42
magkneetoexD20:42
ArexHow to add Xorg to autorun?20:42
alkisgArex: the question by itself doesn't make sense, when a desktop environment is installed, xorg autostarts, so you'll have to provide more info for us to understand what is wrong with your setup20:42
OerHeksmagkneetoe, if you don't encrypt it, technically yes ( after a few commands)20:42
asgharpolohi , i am using ubuntu 16.04 , when i connect to intenet my system goes down and i cant do anything. but when i am disconnect every things goes well. i didnt have this problem in ubuntu 14.04. what is the problem of ubuntu 16.04?20:43

asgharpolohi , i am using ubuntu 16.04 , when i connect to intenet my system goes down and i cant do anything. but when i am disconnect every things goes well. i didnt have this problem in ubuntu 14.04. what is the problem of ubuntu 16.04?20:44
alkisgArex: what do you want xorg to show when you start it? that's what window managers + DEs are for... those would create /etc/X11/default-display-manager for xorg to start with it...20:44
Bassemhanjollyinfo,  i get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/20356601/20:44

hanjollyinfobassem java-gcj-compat-headless20:46
hanjollyinfono that's compiler20:46
hanjollyinfoyep https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java20:46
Arexalkisg, apps20:46
hanjollyinfothat has java20:46
alkisgArex: there are DMs that allow you to run what you want, e.g. "nodm", while taking care of launching xorg and your app20:46
hanjollyinfobut it is horrible idea to install java from a security perspective.20:47
ducasseArex: you use a display manager to start x automatically, otherwise you need to log in on a terminal.20:47
alkisgArex: I don't think you understand what you're asking20:47
Bassemhanjollyinfo, is it compiler or plugin?20:47
hanjollyinfoBassem, why would u want to install java? it makes your PC  less secure20:47

hanjollyinfoapt install openjdk-9-jre bassem20:48

naccBassem: use openjdk-820:49
Arexalkisg, xinitrc config20:49
naccBassem: openjdk-9 is not yet ready, afaik20:49
Bassem8 or 9?20:49

Arexalkisg, DISPLAY=:0 xterm20:49
Bassemnacc, sudo apt install openjdk-820:49
naccBassem: i don't know what you are needing, it soundsl ike you just need a JRE20:49
naccBassem: so openjdk-8-jre20:50
alkisgArex: install "nodm", this can do what you want, if I understood you correctly20:50
hanjollyinfowhy are both 8 and 9 given in the distro? thats crazy20:50
naccBassem: but i can't tell from your ouptut20:50
ducasseArex: are you trying to use x without a wm?20:50
alkisgArex: it allows you to launch xorg and run your own xinitrc inside it20:50
Arexalkisg, I need just rn script on boot20:51
Arexrun20:51
Arexstartx and only20:51

Arexalkisg, without additional soft20:53
hanjollyinfonacc how can i enlarge tty fonts using the tty??20:53

Arexalkisg, hot to just run any script on boot?20:53
hanjollyinfoor anyone knows how to change the tty fonts?20:53
Arexhow20:53
ducassehanjollyinfo: install the console font you want, and run dpkg-reconfigure console-setup20:54
alkisgArex: you can put a script in /etc/rc.local, but it's the wrong way to do it, the correct is to use a minimal dm like nodm.20:54
ducasseArex: any script you put in rc.local will run as root, don't do that.20:55
Arexany user?20:55
Arexand20:55

kittykittyxangua, im on 14.04 right now20:58

Arexalkisg, what now?20:59
kittykittyducasse, i have work to do tomorrow so ill not be able to do it for like, 4 days ahaha20:59
kittykittyjust seems a bit weird20:59
ducassekittykitty: then use a mirror that has been updated.21:00
kittykittyducasse, checking with the main server now21:00
kittykittytried it 5 hours ago or something and it wasnt up so idk21:00
ducassekittykitty: it's not weird that mirrors are not instantly updated, they're usually updated every 24 hours21:01

meetducasse, ditto allows me to set up a shortcut key, which popups up the recently copied items list, allows me to search those entries instantly, and pastes the entry on pressing enter.21:13

meetducasse, thanks :). btw it seems on sourceforge that it hasn't been updated since 2013. should that be a subject of concern?21:14

Arexducasse, and xinitrc?21:18
Squabbler@ducasse: okay, so apache looks at /var/www/html, which has a symlink to /home/dev/projects, which has a symlink to /usb-drive/dev/projects. In the browser it works from html dir to home dev dir (as expected). But I receive a 403 in the browser when I add the symlink to the usb21:19
ducasseArex: if you have .xinitrc i don't think you would need .xsession21:19
SquabblerEssentially, I would rather host my projects on external usb drive, instead of home folder.21:19
nibblynHi! HDMI secondary display output not working (no signal) after fresh install of UbuntuMate 16.04 with nvidia driver. Works with the very same hardware, driver and x version under 12.04. Nouveau working properly. Any suggestion please?21:19
SquabblerBut localhost throws a 40321:19
Bassemhow can i clean my ubuntu?21:20
ducasseSquabbler: odd, but symlinks are not supposed to work cross-device.21:20
Bassemfrom any unnecessary files or packages21:21
Squabbler@ducasse: That's interesting because the symlink inside of /home/dev when opened *will* open /usb-drive/dev/projects - but apache throws 403 in browser21:21
rattkingI think symlinks can cross devices its hard links that can not.21:21
Arexalkisg, ? :(21:21
ducasserattking: you may be right. sorry.21:21
ducasseBassem: by doing it manually and understanding exactly what you are doing.21:22
Bassemducasse, i'm new to ubuntu21:22
ducasseBassem: then you shouldn't try.21:23
Bassemducasse, wont that take big space of my harddisk21:23
ducasseBassem: you are likely to just break something. clean stuff in your homedir and data drives, the system takes care of itself.21:24

naccCarlFK: well, there's no 4.4 kernel pacakge in wily ...21:32
naccCarlFK: how did you "install wily" ?21:32
Arexducasse, I after that I configured /home/user/.xsession21:32
naccurand0m: you'd have to use a ppa to do so, which is unsupported here (but you can read)21:32

OerHeksArex, then don't use 16.0421:38
ducasseArex: then you should not be running ubuntu.21:38
urand0mnacc, OerHeks should i just compile it from source?21:38
CarlFKnacc: I have a hunch.  ... this box has some sort of raid .. the installer didn't install grub right, so I booted a xenial rescue, fixed grub...21:38
naccurand0m: no, that's a terrible idea21:38
naccCarlFK: ah... could be21:38
urand0mnacc, how come?21:38
maelhey21:39
Arexducasse, no no work21:39
CarlFKnacc: so I guess I just need to whack some grub.conf.. um.. where is it at now?21:39
naccurand0m: 1) compiling php properly is a pain; 2) you'd have to make sure you stay up to do with security fixes, etc.21:39
Squabblerducasse & rattking: I finally figured it out. I had to set my /media/username folder chmod to 75521:39
naccCarlFK: /boot/grub/grub.cfg ?21:39

urand0mnacc, so in other words only do it if i truly know what i am doing21:39
Arexducasse, no autorun21:39
naccurand0m: yes, and accept that it's not supported by ubuntu (you're on your own)21:39
Arexducasse, ask login password an no run xorg21:40
urand0mnacc, i also plan on using nginx and maria db21:40
ducasseArex: most likely because you don't run systemd.21:40
CarlFKnacc: # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE .. # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub ... i'll poke around, it should be obvious...21:40
OerHeksurand0m, use a ppa or switch to 16.04 with standard php721:40
naccurand0m: not sure why you told me that?, but as OerHeks says21:40
Arexducasse, I enabled it21:40

Arexed21:41
urand0mOerHeks, is there a way to upgrade my distro through the shell with out breaking anything. i dont have physical access i only have shell access21:41
ducasseArex: then something is wrong with your configuration.21:41
Arexducasse, or with Ubuntu21:43
OerHeksurand0m, if it is not a heavily tweaked VPS, or VPN, you can, but no guarantees given, and only remote access is your problem21:43
urand0mOerHeks, https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-upgrade-to-php-7-on-ubuntu-14-04 will this work? (digital ocean is not my host)21:45
OerHeksurand0m, then i cannot answer that, i gave you a ppa that is common used.21:47
ducasseurand0m: if your vps provider is any good, they have some form of console access if you break things.21:47

orlockryan441: also, basic network troubleshooting - in the output of "ip route" will be a line that says "default via ..." - ping the IP address thats listed22:57
orlockso in your case 192.168.1.122:57
naccryan441: when it's "not working" can you 'ping 8.8.8.8' ?22:59
ryan441okay I will do that now23:00
ryan441it says Destination host unreachable23:00
orlockryan441: could you ping 192.168.1.1?23:01
ryan441I did23:01
ryan441it says it is unreachable23:01
ryan441and then I disconnected and reconnected and now it says 64 Bytes from 192.168.1.123:02
ryan441and then 5 minutes later it will not let me connect to any sites again23:02
orlockok, sounds like your wireless is screwing up for some reason, everything appears correctl, unsure of how to debug, and there is no way that apache should be causing those issues23:03
orlockbut you could always stop apache and see if it makes a difference23:03
ryan441okay I'll stop apache and see once the internet stops working to see what it does23:03
ryan441but it only does it after I install apache that is why it's confusing me23:04
Hydr0p0nXdoes dmesg show anything when it drops ?23:04
ryan441let me see once it does it again.. It doesn't say it got disconnected or anything, it shows I have internet but then when I go to a page it keeps loading unless I disconnect it and reconnect23:05
ryan441it still allows me to view pages, still waiting for it to stop again..23:08

Bassemkalenpw, is it better?23:49

kalenpwYeah half sarcastic vim is a very good text editor but if you're looking for an ide you're probably stuck on monodevelop unless you wanna run a windows vm with vs23:50

kalenpwBassem I've never tried it, but Visual Studio code is supposedly pretty good not really a full fledged ide though23:54
Bluez_no config changes etc, so it must have been some update that did it23:54
naccBluez_: i don't think strongswan itself has been updated since 16.04 came out23:55
Bluez_apt-get still uses 5.3.5.  strong swan’s latest release is 5.5.023:55
Bluez_anyway i mean some ubuntu update has caused the problems23:55
Bluez_nothing else on the server has changed23:56
nacc!latest | Bluez_23:56
ubottuBluez_: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.23:56
naccBluez_: you could look at your apt log and see, i guess23:57
