| YankDownUnder | crafty1__: That was ryan. | 00:11 |
| solo8 | sorry, but i just want greet u all, really sorry | 00:12 |
| crafty1__ | YankDownUnder: I mean is this the same ryan? | 00:12 |
| jon5000 | can anyone help me get a trackpad that used to be recognized but is not recognized anymore, to come back to life? | 00:12 |
| YankDownUnder | crafty1__: Yes | 00:12 |
| crafty1__ | OK - is this the same issue? | 00:13 |
| YankDownUnder | jon5000: Is this an ASUS? | 00:13 |

| YankDownUnder | peiti: We all need some help. In one way or another. What exactly do you require here in Ubuntu, though...? | 00:14 |
| jon5000 | YankDownUnder, it is a lenovo yoga 13. 16.04 installed | 00:14 |
| minimec | jon5000: ... and it worked with 14.04? | 00:15 |
| jon5000 | YankDownUnder, it used to work fine in 14.04, and even in 16.04 for a short while then for some reason i typed restart x, (dont ask) and then it stopped | 00:15 |
| peiti | what make ubuntu better like tools and program | 00:15 |
| minimec | jon5000: YankDownUnder: I guess we can try the 'xserver-xorg-input-synaptics' driver again ;) | 00:16 |
| backbox | hi | 00:16 |
| backbox | im new member of IRC chat :) | 00:16 |
| whoever | weird problem, formated thumbdrive to fat , well vfat, and every time , before i remove my thubdrive I right click eject and was fine every time but after the third time pluggin it into ubuntu box it was corupt | 00:17 |
| peiti | u have backbox like me | 00:17 |
| jon5000 | YankDownUnder, great. how do i do that? | 00:17 |
| YankDownUnder | PHONE CALL, SORRY....IT'S OVERSEAS | 00:18 |
| solo8 | @peiti u means dont use terminal but tools like in windows? | 00:18 |
| whoever | i post the questio here beause i can plug and unplug my usb stick into my desktop no prob before this corrupt problem with ubuntu | 00:18 |
| peiti | no | 00:18 |
| peiti | il like put command | 00:18 |
| minimec | jon5000: As it worked before, we can safely try to install 'sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics'. Ubuntu changed the input driver (like most of the distributions). reboot after installation. | 00:19 |
| minimec | jon5000: It also worked under 16.04 I see now. So there is another problem. Do you have a hardware key to disable the tpuchpad? | 00:21 |
| whoever | when you remove a thubdrive does it matter if you unmount or eject it , i assume eject would be the same as unmount, is it | 00:22 |
| minimec | jon5000: Try the FN+F8 key combination... https://support.lenovo.com/ch/en/documents/ht075599 | 00:22 |
| OerHeks | whoever, yes, it matters, on any operatingsystem. | 00:22 |
| ryan500 | YankDownUnder it worked | 00:22 |
| ryan500 | YankDownUnder thanks | 00:22 |
| whoever | OerHeks: i assmed that the system knew that the drive was a usb drive and eject would unmount&& eject . am i wrong | 00:23 |
| minimec | jon5000: Oh its FN+Delete on the yogas... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bGDJktLGBk | 00:24 |
| whoever | orlock: or must i unmount , than eject ? | 00:24 |
| OerHeks | whoever, using the software button eject yes, but not pulling the usb out | 00:24 |

| jon5000 | YankDownUnder, thanks. i did a little research and then reinstalled the thing to mentioned. track pad is back. however the weird thing about this install now is that restart or fresh boot does not get it working... i have to suspend then wake, and then it comes alive... same for WIFI. just doesnt work at first boot. is that a thing?? | 00:30 |

| fried | is 16.04.1 released? I'm trying to do do-release-upgrade and it says "No new release found" | 01:08 |
| Bashing-om | !ltsupgrade | fried | 01:10 |
| ubottu | fried: The automatic LTS upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 was scheduled when 16.04.1 LTS was released on July 21st but was postponed for one week due to last bug testing. | 01:10 |
| fried | ah, thanks :) | 01:10 |
| ryan500 | hasnt 16.04 been out a while? | 01:10 |
| Bashing-om | ryan500: Yeah, 16.04 was released on schedule . we have a delay in the release-upgrade path . | 01:12 |
| ryan500 | wow that is big delay | 01:12 |
| ryan500 | good to know though | 01:12 |
| ryan500 | im new to ubuntu | 01:13 |
| crafty1__ | 16.04.1 is only delayed a week or something. Its not even a major release | 01:16 |
| ryan500 | when was 16.04 originally released | 01:21 |
| YankDownUnder | crafty1__: Funny that...I appear to be running 16.04.1...hmm... | 01:21 |
| crafty1__ | April. The first section is the year second is the month, | 01:21 |
| crafty1__ | Same | 01:22 |
| YankDownUnder | Maybe I should downgrade so I can be like everyone else... ;) | 01:24 |
| crafty1__ | YankDownUnder: In fact both of my Ubuntu machines have the latest patch 16.04.1. | 01:25 |
| ryan500 | I was wondering cause i thought I have had 16.04 for a while | 01:25 |
| tgm4883 | Yes, if you are running 16.04 and do regular apt upgrades you get 16.04.1 | 01:25 |
| tgm4883 | There's no real difference between 16.04 and 16.04.1 other than updated packages | 01:26 |
| YankDownUnder | crafty1__: Tis good. | 01:26 |

| YankDownUnder | tgm4883: It's the NUMBER that means the most... | 01:26 |
| crafty1__ | Yeah I had no idea they released a new patch. Some people had reported it hadnt updated. I dont see why that would be | 01:26 |
| crafty1__ | I can barely pronounce Ubuntu released anymore | 01:27 |

| crafty1__ | I would think libgit2-dev | 02:41 |
| crafty1__ | since you're attempting to compie this | 02:41 |
| OerHeks | so libgit2-dev or libgit2-glib-1.0-dev | 02:41 |

| Dice-Man | i have a two nic on a virtual machine one nic (10.10.10.0/24) for internal network and a secon bridged to my real nic with 192.168.1.0/24 my question how to acess internet with the first nic (the one on 10.10.10.0/24) ? | 02:48 |

| RedPenguin | I ask because for xc5000 I was told to name the conf xc5000.conf | 03:00 |
| Hydr0p0nX | in virtualox manager, select the vm -> settings -> click Network -> select Bridged and the interface to bridge, might have to poweroff and restart the vm | 03:03 |
| ElmoOnLSD | Hi Ubuntu peeps :) | 03:04 |
| minimec | RedPenguin: No, but the module name needs to be in the file , like 'options xc2028 no_poweroff=1' | 03:05 |
| ipatrol | Ok, I'm getting this weird problem with Dolphin on Kubuntu regarding file associations, and I can't pin down where the particular problem is | 03:10 |
| owen1 | OerHeks: now i see "could not determine kind of name for C.GIT_CHECKOUT_DONT_WRITE_INDEX" | 03:11 |
| crafty1__ | ipatrol: whats the issue with dolphin | 03:12 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: all files ending in ".pub" are being marked as MS Publisher files, regardless of content, and given how that's also the suffix for SSH pubkeys, it's quite annoying | 03:13 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: but neither `file` nor `xdg-mime` appear responsible | 03:13 |
| crafty1__ | ipatrol: you have MS published running in WINE or something? | 03:13 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: no, that's just it | 03:14 |
| ipatrol | the association shows up in KDE's file types editor, but every time I try to remove the "*.pub" pattern, it comes right back | 03:15 |
| crafty1__ | ipatrol: I mean, I get the problem but why open a *.pub file from Dolphin anyway? | 03:16 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: generally with a text editor so I can copy-paste it | 03:16 |
| ipatrol | like my wireless router adds keys that way through its web interface | 03:17 |
| crafty1__ | ipatrol: Oh OK. | 03:17 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: either way, it's not what I'd call "expected behavior" | 03:17 |
| crafty1__ | ipatrol: Thats really almost funny in a sense that it assumes its a Microsoft file | 03:18 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: even if the file is totally empty, like `touch file.pub` | 03:18 |
| medo_ | i cant hack outside armetage | 03:18 |
| ipatrol | medo_: then I suggest you learn ;-) | 03:19 |
| crafty1__ | Let me walk over to my Kubuntu box I want to see this | 03:19 |
| medo_ | i try | 03:19 |
| medo_ | but cant | 03:19 |
| RedPenguin | minimec: ok thought so but didn't find any definitive answer googling | 03:19 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: apparently it also does this with docx, xlsx, pptx, and so on and so forth | 03:19 |
| ipatrol | medo_: do you actually know anything about network security? Or are you just a script kiddie trawling for a mentor? | 03:20 |
| crafty1 | ipatrol: Oh my god I see | 03:20 |
| crafty1 | Its probably because nothing else uses the extension other than RSA keys | 03:21 |
| ipatrol | crafty1: it's like the MS Office associations are hardcoded in | 03:21 |
| medo_ | yes i know | 03:21 |
| crafty1 | ipatrol: Its funny because if I go touch foo.doc it doesnt show the association | 03:21 |
| mrr411 | hello all | 03:21 |
| crafty1 | touch foo.docx does | 03:21 |
| mrr411 | upgrading programs on ubuntu should be no difrent then ubuntu studio correct | 03:22 |
| cfhowlett | mrr411, correct. what is the issue you are having? | 03:22 |
| ipatrol | crafty1: yeah, like it's only the 2nd-gen Office files that do that | 03:22 |
| crafty1 | ipatrol: Under the KDE file association editor if you search .pub it comes up | 03:22 |
| crafty1 | I've never messed with it but I asusme you would select it and hit remove then add a different applcation | 03:23 |
| ipatrol | crafty1: and if you remove the .pub entry, save it, close it, and then open it again, it returns | 03:23 |
| mrr411 | studio only comes with darktable 2.0.3 and its at 2.0.5 and its not in the store thing and im having truble understanding how to upgrade it | 03:23 |
| cfhowlett | mrr411, wait 1 | 03:23 |
| crafty1 | ipatrol: OK so new guess - click on vnd.ms-publisher | 03:23 |
| crafty1 | Where it says application preference order | 03:24 |
| crafty1 | Add Kwrite above that | 03:24 |
| mrr411 | cfhowlett I dont understand your question | 03:24 |
| cfhowlett | !latest | 03:24 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 03:24 |
| cfhowlett | mrr411, see above | 03:24 |
| crafty1 | ipatrol: I think that will resolve the issue. If you put KWrite at a higher priority to open it should open that instead | 03:24 |
| mrr411 | 2.0.5 is the latest | 03:24 |
| mrr411 | i have update and upgraded through terminal already | 03:25 |
| cfhowlett | mrr411, understood. read the !latest link above | 03:25 |
| mrr411 | did not fix it | 03:25 |
| mrr411 | correct I know that however I dont understand how to upgrade it to there newest witch has things like spot remover and a few other tools that 2.0.5 has | 03:26 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: that's a quick fix, but it still doesn't fix the incorrect association | 03:26 |
| crafty1__ | ipatrol: Let me know if that works | 03:26 |
| cfhowlett | mrr411, it is not in the repos so you cannot update it yet. use either the ppa (unsupported here) or compile from source. | 03:26 |
| mrr411 | so I was going to see if any one has done it before to explaine it to me in lamens turms lol I have tired fallowing there directions but some where i must be messing it up | 03:26 |
| crafty1__ | ipatrol: Does it work? I mean technically its not wrong. It opens LibreOffice on my PC | 03:27 |
| crafty1__ | Its a shared extension...everything on UNIX is a file :-) | 03:27 |
| mrr411 | https://launchpad.net/~pmjdebruijn/+archive/ubuntu/darktable-release?field.series_filter=xenial is what I am trying to do ...i think | 03:27 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: then why does xdg-mime guess the type correctly? Doesn't KDE use that? | 03:28 |
| cfhowlett | mrr411, the "adding this pppa to your system" is prominently marked on that page. read and heed. | 03:28 |
| mrr411 | all i know is i need 2.0.5 lol | 03:28 |
| ipatrol | crafty1__: also, there are like 4-5 different other filetypes that use .pub | 03:29 |
| mrr411 | I tried to add... however it wont let me press the add button | 03:29 |
| mrr411 | ill try it again and see though | 03:29 |

| Keo-0w | linux-server depends on linux-headers-server (= 3.2.0.99.115); however: | 03:40 |
| Keo-0w | Version of linux-headers-server on system is 3.2.0.106.122. | 03:40 |
| Keo-0w | i keep having that error message whenever i try anything w/apt-get | 03:40 |
| Keo-0w | anyone know the fix for this? | 03:40 |
| cfhowlett | !server | Keo-0w | 03:41 |
| ubottu | Keo-0w: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Xenial (Xenial Xerus 16.04.1) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide - Support in #ubuntu-server | 03:41 |
| simon_ | tz | 03:41 |
| cfhowlett | Keo-0w, also try sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade | 03:41 |
| ipatrol | Keo-0w: though I would generally prefer to use aptitude for upgrades | 03:42 |
| Keo-0w | cfhowlett you mean apt-get i take it. i tried that already | 03:42 |
| pat | I have a few problems. First of all, I'm using Ubuntu 14.04. If I try to use my Bluetooth card, it starts to consume 100% CPU and then the OS crashes if I don't kill the process in time. What should I be looking into? Pretty sure I checked dmesg (it seems to use dbus) and didn't notice anything. Not sure what my next debugging steps are | 03:42 |
| Keo-0w | E: Invalid operation full-upgrade | 03:43 |
| cfhowlett | Keo-0w, apt is the replacement for apt-get but if you have already done so ... | 03:43 |
| ipatrol | Keo-0w: no, apt is a seperate program | 03:43 |
| Keo-0w | ah, i don't have apt then | 03:43 |
| pat | I had to install the drivers in Windows as well. It wouldn't work otherwise. | 03:43 |
| cfhowlett | Keo-0w, on 14.04?? | 03:43 |
| Keo-0w | 12.04.5 | 03:43 |
| ipatrol | cfhowlett: he may have a very minimal installation. apt is a frontend for apt-get, not a replacement AFAIK | 03:43 |
| cfhowlett | ipatrol, sounds legit. thanks. | 03:44 |
| cfhowlett | Keo-0w, 12.04.5 ??? perhaps an upgrade is in your immediate future? | 03:44 |
| Keo-0w | cfhowlett yes if i can get this working:) | 03:44 |
| ipatrol | cfhowlett: the equivalent command would be `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` | 03:45 |
| Keo-0w | it just keeps telling me to run apt-get install -f to correct whenever i try to do anything | 03:46 |
| Keo-0w | then when i try that it basically says thanks for playing you have errors | 03:46 |
| cfhowlett | Keo-0w, OK. I am minimally aware of servers running 12.04.5. Prior suggestion; ask the server channel for more informed advice | 03:46 |
| Keo-0w | Errors were encountered while processing: | 03:46 |
| Keo-0w | linux-server E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 03:46 |
| Keo-0w | sure | 03:46 |
| ipatrol | Keo-0w: there's probably something broken underneath there. You may have to do a reinstall | 03:47 |
| ipatrol | Keo-0w: either that or try to install aptitude and see if it can fix the broken dependencies. aptitude is quite a bit sharper than apt or apt-get in that field | 03:48 |
| tgm4883 | Keo-0w: have you tried downgrading linux-server? | 03:48 |
| ipatrol | tgm4883: dpkg doesn't support downgrading | 03:48 |
| ipatrol | he's more likely to break things even worse that way | 03:49 |
| tgm4883 | ipatrol: I never said to use dpkg... | 03:49 |
| ipatrol | tgm4883: the package system relies on dpkg, Debian-based distros in general don't support downgrading | 03:49 |
| tgm4883 | ipatrol: well that's funny. apt supports downgrading just fine | 03:50 |
| Keo-0w | i think this will help me | 03:50 |
| Keo-0w | http://askubuntu.com/questions/378883/problem-with-package-installation-linux-image-server | 03:50 |
| cfhowlett | tgm4883, whot! got a link for that? please | 03:50 |
| Keo-0w | just ogtta figure out how to list the dpkgs that i need to remove his are obviously a little different | 03:50 |
| ipatrol | !downgrade | tgm4883 | 03:50 |
| ubottu | tgm4883: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported and may break your system. | 03:50 |
| Keo-0w | i may or may not have just fixed it with that lol | 03:51 |
| tgm4883 | ipatrol: yea downgrading to previous ubuntu isn't supported, and isn't at all what I said... | 03:51 |
| Keo-0w | might be my lucky night | 03:51 |
| Keo-0w | either that or it wont reboot | 03:51 |
| === ^9 is now known as i-r | ||
| Keo-0w | and it will be my unlucky night | 03:51 |
| === i-r is now known as i- | ||
| ipatrol | Keo-0w: again, I would strongly suggest at this point just doing an upgrade-by-install. It'll almost certainly be less painful than whatever it is you're doing now. | 03:52 |
| Keo-0w | ipatrol remember that failed already | 03:52 |
| cfhowlett | !downgrade > cfhowlett | 03:53 |
| ubottu | cfhowlett, please see my private message | 03:53 |
| tgm4883 | Keo-0w: have you tried downgrading linux-headers-server package to the version requested? | 03:53 |
| Keo-0w | this is what i did | 03:54 |
| Keo-0w | http://askubuntu.com/questions/378883/problem-with-package-installation-linux-image-server | 03:54 |
| Keo-0w | it seems to have worked | 03:54 |
| ipatrol | Keo-0w: you tried burning a disk with the latest LTS server and installing it over your root partition? | 03:54 |
| Keo-0w | about to find out | 03:54 |
| Keo-0w | yay it worked | 03:54 |
| Keo-0w | dpkg remove ftw guys | 03:55 |
| Keo-0w | thx | 03:55 |

| Mr_Hales | I'm running a 16.04 dvd in a vm and when I hit "Ubuntu Software" I get startup notifications but then nothing happens. | 04:30 |
| Mr_Hales | Other items on the panel work correctly. | 04:32 |
| Waggie | Mr_Hales, are you using an actual DVD or an ISO image? | 04:34 |
| Mr_Hales | iso | 04:36 |
| Waggie | Mr_Hales, everything works but the Software Centre? | 04:37 |
| Mr_Hales | Seems that way | 04:38 |
| Waggie | Very strange.. What VM software are you using? | 04:39 |
| Mr_Hales | VirtualBox | 04:39 |
| Waggie | Have you tried redownloading the ISO? | 04:39 |
| Waggie | Or tried a different VM software? | 04:40 |
| Mr_Hales | Not yet. Didn't know if this was a known issue, so I thought I'd ask around. I take it this is unusual. | 04:42 |
| Waggie | I haven't experienced it, but I haven't played much with 16.04 yet. | 04:43 |
| cfhowlett | Mr_Hales, md5sum the .iso | 04:44 |
| esd_droid | 15.1 better than 16 for managaing mem resources.. i only have 2g ram for my system on board | 04:44 |
| geogts | why am i getting an error for this? | 04:44 |
| geogts | (11:43:26 PM) geogts: /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER geogts XXXXXXXX | 04:44 |
| geogts | (11:43:26 PM) NickServ: (notice) Invalid command. Use /msg NickServ help for a command listing. | 04:44 |
| Mr_Hales | Yeah I was just doing that, but had to dig 20 layers deep to find the md5 to compare it to. | 04:45 |
| Waggie | geogts, I recommend that you ask over on #freenode | 04:45 |
| geogts | okay thanks. trying to register because i have an offtopic question and i can't join ubuntu-offtopic =/ | 04:46 |
| Mr_Hales | md5 checks out. | 04:46 |
| Mr_Hales | I saw an error when it was booting up, but it went by too fast... I think memory addressing. | 04:47 |
| cfhowlett | esd_droid, technically ubuntu will run on 2 gb. just quite slowly. try xubuntu/lubuntu instead | 04:47 |
| cfhowlett | esd_droid, and 15.10 will soon reach end of life | 04:47 |
| cfhowlett | geogts, because you improperly registered | 04:47 |
| geogts | hmmm... followed this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration step by step | 04:48 |
| esd_droid | hmm | 04:48 |
| esd_droid | thansk for the comments cfhowlett | 04:49 |
| cfhowlett | geogts, this is not the place for your problem. ask #freeenode | 04:49 |
| cfhowlett | esd_droid, happy2help! | 04:49 |
| geogts | cfhowlett: yes, i'm currently there asking for help. i was only responding to your input | 04:50 |
| Mr_Hales | Something about "force address use 0xaddr" or something | 04:50 |
| esd_droid | cfhowlett does it mean i have to lower down the version..ie. lubuntu say 14 lts server? | 04:51 |
| esd_droid | or betetr manage manage my programs at 15.1 that kills my mem resource | 04:52 |
| cfhowlett | Mr_Hales, I get that all the time and just ignore it. system boots anyway | 04:54 |
| cfhowlett | esd_droid, no. 16.04.1 is the latest Long Term Support version and highly recommended. 14.04 and 12.04 are also available LTS versions | 04:54 |
| cfhowlett | esd_droid, are you looking at lubuntu or xubuntu? | 04:54 |
| Mr_Hales | Hmm, adjusted some setting in VBox and now it's working. I had it running on 1 CPU at first. | 04:54 |
| esd_droid | yes | 04:54 |
| Mr_Hales | Well, thanks for the help. Have a good one. :-) | 04:54 |

| sidgupta234 | Guys, when am trying to dual install Ubuntu on Windows7 through USB, while installing it says using superuser. | 05:59 |
| sidgupta234 | How to install normally | 05:59 |
| YankDownUnder | sidgupta234: Just let the installation do what the installation is supposed to do. | 06:00 |
| sidgupta234 | it doesnt matter, if it says "as superuser"? | 06:01 |
| YankDownUnder | sidgupta234: No. "Superuser" is just a description of the "administrative" role of the user installing the software. | 06:01 |
| sidgupta234 | YankDownUnder: Thanks ! | 06:01 |
| YankDownUnder | sidgupta234: You're welcome | 06:02 |
| sidgupta234 | Another query, my BIOS menu doesnt load when I press f2, it says processing.. but jumps to the choose OS screen. | 06:03 |
| YankDownUnder | sidgupta234: You're apparently not fast enough, hmm... | 06:03 |
| sidgupta234 | But it says processing.. means the command was accepted' | 06:04 |
| YankDownUnder | sidgupta234: THAT I'm not sure of - because what you're describing does not really make sense to me. | 06:05 |
| === ahrc333ff is now known as Guest79110 | ||
| sidgupta234_ | sorry it says, please wait.. | 06:08 |
| sidgupta234_ | not processing | 06:09 |
| YankDownUnder | sidgupta234_: Still doesn't make sense to me. I am blind. I can only visualise from data that you tell me. Therefore, what you're telling me is incomplete, and I cannot deduce what is going on. | 06:10 |
| sidgupta234_ | YankDownUnder: will produce a video | 06:11 |
| YankDownUnder | sidgupta234_: I'd prefer to not watch a video, mate. Seriously. It should be easy enough to fully describe - step by step - what is going on. | 06:12 |
| sidgupta234_ | YankDownUnder: when I power on, there are 2 options f2 for BIOS, f12 for Boot Menu, f12 works and leads me to the boot menu. But when I press f2 , the screen becomes black with a text in the bottom left saying 'Please wait...', then the choose OS menu appears. PS :- I have dual OS, win7 and ubuntu14.04 | 06:14 |
| minitrue | [03:15:25] [WARNING] no proper pivot column provided (with unique values). It won't be possible to retrieve all rows | 06:17 |
| neither | Anyone? | 06:17 |
| minitrue | sorry wrong channel | 06:17 |
| YankDownUnder | sidgupta234_: Being that the OS installation has nothing to do with your BIOS, that is an issue that you have to research regarding your particular machine. In most instances, you can force the BIOS to allow you to get into it merely by repeatedly pressing the necessary key or key combo - repeatedly...which obviously confuses the system at POST and then gives you the option to get into BIOS or continue. Does that make sense? | 06:18 |
| sidgupta234_ | YankDownUnder: I'll research, thanks for the head start. | 06:19 |
| neither | :-D | 06:19 |
| YankDownUnder | sidgupta234_: Coolbeans. Blessings. | 06:20 |
| neither | How is ubuntu? I've just downloaded Ubuntu 16.04, and I want to know more about it. | 06:21 |
| neither | :-( | 06:21 |
| YankDownUnder | neither: It's obviously a horrible OS and no one likes it - hence the support channels, the vast amount of downloads for the past ten years, etc etc etc. | 06:22 |

| uebera|| | "sudo do-release-upgrade -p" should work though, but I now consider waiting another week. | 08:43 |
| cfhowlett | uebera||, -p not needed as 16.04.1 has been released. check your settings | 08:44 |
| ducasse | cfhowlett: still need -d, or? | 08:46 |
| uebera|| | "/etc/update-manager/release-upgrades" has "prompt=lts" and it did not work | 08:46 |
| cfhowlett | ducasse, should not need any of that at this point asssuming that trusty is fully upgraded ... or so I understand | 08:46 |
| ducasse | !ltsupgrade | cfhowlett | 08:46 |
| ubottu | cfhowlett: The automatic LTS upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 was scheduled when 16.04.1 LTS was released on July 21st but was postponed for one week due to last bug testing. | 08:46 |
| cfhowlett | ducasse, ahhh! it was delayed!? unusual. thanks for the update. uebera|| yeah, wait! | 08:47 |

| Ben64 | bwallum: https://web.whatsapp.com/ | 09:59 |
| akik | bwallum: whatsapp has a web service that enables you to do it: https://web.whatsapp.com/ | 09:59 |
| minimec | bwallum: http://www.webupd8.org/2016/04/use-whatsapp-on-your-linux-desktop-with.html | 10:00 |

| negev | hi, enabling apparmor for dovecot throws this: | 10:03 |
| akik | bwallum: yes. that was actually the thing the made me not use it | 10:03 |

| mistral | ciao | 10:04 |
| negev | but the base abstraction contains: /{,var/}run/systemd/journal/dev-log w, | 10:04 |
| negev | which is included by the usr.lib.dovecot.log profile | 10:04 |
| negev | so it should be allowed | 10:04 |
| negev | even adding it explicitly in the dovecot.log profile doesn't fix it | 10:04 |
| mistral | batman vs superman | 10:04 |
| negev | does "fsuid=0 ouid=0" mean it needs suid permissions? | 10:04 |

| konraddo | hello, i used to use ubuntu like 5 years ago, and i would like to start using it again... i'm also planning to buy new graphics card, i have opportunity to get some cheap radeon, do modern radeons have better linux support than they used to,or should i still stick with nvidia if i don't want to have problems on linux? | 11:00 |

| famax | to my epxerience radeon is not safe enough - a very recent crap one worked but a 4/5 years old big mamam got toally burnt | 11:04 |
| bekks | "safe enough"? | 11:04 |
| famax | bekks, yes, it could go either way like a 50-50 where nvidia is 80 good 20 bad if that makes sense - you are les likely to get issues with nvidia basically - joining your answer actually | 11:06 |

| famax | samtu92, had the same issue - not sure is soft related - mine anyways was hardware issue - how old is you H/W? | 11:37 |
| samtu92 | famax: Completely honest, not sure. I do think its software related though, it worked fine on w10 but was like this once I moved to ubuntu | 11:38 |
| samtu92 | Or maybe not, dont want to scapegoat anything | 11:38 |
| samtu92 | famax: But clearly something is broken, watching 60fps vlc videos is laggy, having more than three tabs in firefox and it will most likely stop responding | 11:40 |

| nibblyn | Hi! On a laptop the HDMI secondary display output is not working (no signal) after fresh install of UbuntuMate 16.04. It is working properly with the live iso from the very beginning of the boot process. Unfortunately a standard system update was already performed but it should not be the issue. Nouveau driver in use in both cases. What may trigger this behavior? Thanks. | 14:36 |
| he1kki | nibblyn: I have some similar issues with mate, but hdmi connection will recover if you start Display application | 14:37 |
| fuknoodles | Can I update Ubuntu from 14.04 LTS to 16.04 without having to download all the security updates that released in this period? | 14:37 |
| he1kki | nibblyn: full program name is mate-display-properties | 14:41 |
| nibblyn | he1kki, tried that without success. Neither disper (screen toggler) nor xrandr solved the issue. Diagnostic tools report fine except that there is still no signal. | 14:42 |
| ducasse | fuknoodles: afaik it is recommended to fully update before upgrading. | 14:44 |
| fuknoodles | ducasse: there's no internet on this desktop | 14:44 |
| fuknoodles | I can download iso elsewhere. | 14:44 |
| ducasse | fuknoodles: are you planning to reinstall? | 14:45 |
| fuknoodles | ducasse: no. I plan to keep the programs. Will do fresh install only as a last resort | 14:46 |
| ducasse | fuknoodles: iirc you can't upgrade from the iso, you need network access to do that. | 14:46 |
| fuknoodles | are people getting the 16.04.1 update notification. I believe it was released on 22? | 14:50 |
| ducasse | !ltsupgrade | fuknoodles | 14:51 |
| ubottu | fuknoodles: The automatic LTS upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 was scheduled when 16.04.1 LTS was released on July 21st but was postponed for one week due to last bug testing. | 14:51 |
| tonyt | cam anyone tell me the cli commmand to go from 14.04 to 16.04? | 14:51 |
| ducasse | tonyt: 'sudo do-release-upgrade -d' for another week, but see what ubottu wrote before you. | 14:52 |
| MonkeyDust | tonyt the lts-upgrade will be possible in a week from now, they're still working on it | 14:52 |
| fuknoodles | I believe the liveUSBs used to have an upgrade option. Is this not the case anymore? | 14:53 |

| nibblyn | OerHeks, yes, thought about that. Acpi_listen does not report a key event but neither it does on 12.04 nor in 16.04 live. Booted with acpi_osi= which fixed fn backlight problems btw. So, I can't confirm than the FN toggle screen is working but IMHO disper should do that anyway. Still thinking that there may be something with kernel boot parameters. | 15:04 |

| dancingd3mon | can someone explain this to me ? | 15:19 |
| dancingd3mon | http://prntscr.com/bwjlu2 | 15:19 |
| dancingd3mon | What do i exactly have in my server? raid 0 or raid 1 | 15:20 |
| gamo | updated to 16.04.1 ... NO MOUSE! What can I do? | 15:20 |
| compdoc | says raid0, which is crazy with 4 drives | 15:21 |
| dancingd3mon | crazy in what way compdoc ? | 15:21 |
| hncr | dancingd3mon: data loss | 15:22 |
| dancingd3mon | those are two servers, the one on the top which is mine says raid1 too | 15:22 |
| compdoc | also says raid1 in one instance | 15:22 |
| dancingd3mon | yeah this confuses me | 15:22 |
| dancingd3mon | I'm seeing super speed difference between mine and a friend of mine... | 15:22 |
| compdoc | dancingd3mon, raid0 means if one drive fails or has a tiny glitch, you lose all your data. Normally ppl do raid0 with only 2 drives | 15:23 |
| dancingd3mon | Like my 4 x 3TB HDDs are on raid0 array or ...? on the top of that photo | 15:23 |
| dancingd3mon | Yeah, compdoc :) I knew this...It's alright though, I'm looking for performance at this moment.. | 15:23 |
| dancingd3mon | but I'm seeing super slower speed during copying... | 15:24 |
| dancingd3mon | So I'm worried is it like raid 0 and raid 1 ? or only raid 0 ? | 15:24 |
| dancingd3mon | compdoc> also says raid1 in one instance ? | 15:24 |
| compdoc | dancingd3mon, I dont know much about mdadm. Except how to disable it. I use zfs | 15:26 |

| Hydr0p0nX | everytime I upgrade my kernel, i have to uninstall / remove / build /install the dkms enabled modules for my network and tv tuner cards, anyone point me to a way of fixing that so it's as automatic as it's supposed to be ? | 15:36 |
| Hydr0p0nX | dkms status shows they're installed, but the modules won't load until all of that is done | 15:37 |
| OerHeks | Hydr0p0nX, write a script for that? like this post http://askubuntu.com/questions/111177/triggering-driver-module-rebuild-on-kernel-update | 15:40 |
| Hydr0p0nX | OerHeks, I have a DKMS module i built for it, which is one of the options in that link. the problem is it's not working as it should - the module shows installed and doesn't load | 15:42 |
| Hydr0p0nX | OerHeks, going through the process of deleting and re-adding the module to dkms rebuilds it correctly | 15:44 |

| === Guest7384 is now known as Kartagis | ||
| OerHeks | christian__, delayed for a week | 15:58 |
| christian__ | Oh ok.. so they will notify the 14.04 users right? | 15:59 |
| christian__ | Im currently using a two-day old install of Xubuntu 14.04.3, with all updates installed.. Its quite stable... | 16:00 |
| christian__ | ubottu_: The fixes that will be released, will it guarantee a stable usage of 16.04.1? | 16:02 |
| ubottu | christian__: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 16:02 |
| pauljw_vm | christian__, why fix what's not broken, if 14.04 is working for you there's no real need to upgrade. it's supported till 2019. | 16:03 |
| christian__ | pauljw_vm_: Yes I totally agree... Im using 14.04 and it says there in their page it will only be supported until april next year | 16:04 |
| OerHeks | points release are, next 14.04.4 will be another year or so | 16:05 |
| pauljw_vm | i don't think that's correct, but i'm not using xubuntu. someone else may chime in | 16:05 |

| === vald_ is now known as noizex | ||
| RustyShackleford | its unusable if I plug in my external monitor. The hardware is nothing fancy, intel integrated graphics | 16:18 |
| christian__ | ioria_: should I downgrade to 14.04.2? | 16:19 |
| RustyShackleford | I love using linux, except when I need to edit xorg | 16:19 |
| ioria | christian__, nope... why ? | 16:19 |
| christian__ | ioria_: seems like .2 utopic kernel is still live? | 16:20 |
| ioria | christian__, if you need for a specific reason 3.19, you don't have much of a choice ... otherwise you can redownload the iso or install linux-generic-lts-xenial (or wily) | 16:23 |
| christian__ | ioria_: Im using 3.19 kernel because of what I experienced when I upgraded to 16.04 when it first came out.. I'm playing AOE3 and NFS MW in wine in 16.04 (kernel 4.4) and I had this graphics prblem in those games.. seems like its not rendering the games, I had artifacts in in-game menu in NFS MW and in AOE3 Its not rendering properly.. I play it on windowed mode.. I just diidnt have that problem when I used 14.04.2 and .3 | 16:25 |
| OerHeks | oh wine ...don't play windowed mode then, full screen will ease your gpu | 16:26 |
| christian__ | ioria_: so thats why Im still using 14.04. also I had that problem in 15.10 (kernel 4.2) | 16:26 |
| OerHeks | your problem is wine, not the kernel | 16:27 |
| ioria | christian__, you may ask in #wine ... have you tied ? | 16:27 |
| ioria | *tried | 16:27 |
| christian__ | OerHeks_: When I play in full screen, some games just became un-playable.. I can hear sounds but screen gets stuck. probably because of The unity side laucher.. but when I tried Xubuntu and played on full screen mode, then games are hassle free, dont have to escape to desktop | 16:28 |
| christian__ | ioria_: not yet.. I chose to come here because I have response instantly | 16:30 |
| christian__ | My GPU Is intel GMA 3000 | 16:30 |
| ioria | christian__, i don't know why the wily kernel could give you issues .... i'd say the problem is elsewhere located | 16:31 |
| ioria | christian__, oh... intel ? | 16:32 |
| OerHeks | oke, so ubuntu is too heavy for that gma3000 and gaming. it is not a 3D racemonster, i know, but should play video full screen. | 16:32 |
| christian__ | OerHeks_: I have tried the latest Stable and Developing versions, and installed required DLL's (DX9) still it persists.. so thats why Im keeping this Xubuntu w/ 3.19 kernel | 16:32 |
| christian__ | ioria_: Yes | 16:32 |
| OerHeks | christian__, any difference when you use playonlinux scripts for your game? | 16:33 |

| terrible | vince_, i did a locate but it doesnt show anything | 17:03 |
| vince_ | terrible, I found this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM does that have the information you are looking for? | 17:03 |
| OerHeks | ~/.themes or /user/share/themes directory. | 17:03 |
| vince_ | what type of files are the themes? | 17:03 |
| terrible | vince_, tar and tar.gz | 17:04 |
| OerHeks | or you might want to take a look at unity-tweak-tool for theme handling | 17:04 |
| terrible | vince_, they are for the display manager | 17:04 |
| terrible | what i want to do is change the default theme of the display manager | 17:05 |
| vince_ | terrible, OerHeks answer is the right one. untar the files into the /usr/share/themes folder then use the application "lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings" from the command line to choose the theme for your lightdm greeter | 17:06 |
| === bitch is now known as ^5 | ||

| moestevens | Haha true | 17:38 |
| Jakey3 | i mean how is the onetime password generated associated with your account | 17:39 |
| moestevens | Look at OpenNIC though, they're an alternative anti-censorship service | 17:39 |

| Seveas | citrix: sudo sed -e 's/127.0.0.1/8.8.8.8' -i /etc/resolv.conf | 17:40 |
| Jakey3 | but how is the one time password generated by yubi key linked to example your google account | 17:41 |
| Seveas | citrix: that should do as a quick fix to see how nasty your provider is (they may intercept this) | 17:41 |

| Eremiell | moestevens: beware that some of their servers can have issues on times, I was using them a lot earlier, but the servers got broken into and serving shady addresses instead several times, and honestly there wasn't much in the OpenNIC somain space back then, may have changed since | 17:42 |
| citrix | Seveas, Do i need to restart some service after it ? | 17:42 |

| jancoow | Hi there. I want to run transmisison-deamon under another user. On ubuntu 14.04 i changed /etc/init/transmission-daemon.conf and add a paramter "setuid user". After i started transmission with service transmission-daemon start it started under that user. However, on ubuntu 16.04 this isn't working | 17:45 |
| jancoow | could someone help me starting the transmission deamon under another user | 17:45 |
| moestevens | Seveas: Latitude D610 since 2007, sup brotha | 17:45 |
| CopperBot | akik: Thank you, I'll check them out. | 17:45 |
| Seveas | citrix: yeah, your ISP is messing with you and screwing around with dns. Get a better ISP. | 17:46 |
| CopperBot | moestevens: I haven't owned a dell in years but was interested in the XPS 13 - looks solid, heard nothing but good things so far. | 17:46 |
| moestevens | akik: Check your router/modem/gateway settings, especially if you have a screwy ISP | 17:46 |
| citrix | Seveas, So ISP is culprit .. :| | 17:46 |
| Seveas | citrix: There's no use in calling them, except for canceling the contracr. They can easily fix this, but this is a deliberate act of sabotage. | 17:46 |
| CopperBot | Seveas: Thank you. That is helpful to know. | 17:47 |
| citrix | Seveas, Sorry i didn't get you | 17:47 |
| moestevens | citrix: Your ISP is fucking with you | 17:47 |
| Seveas | citrix: your isp is sabotaging your internet connection. | 17:47 |
| moestevens | Solution: Threaten them back | 17:47 |
| Seveas | cancel your contract, get better ISP. | 17:47 |
| citrix | Seveas, Ok :D | 17:48 |
| citrix | Got it | 17:48 |
| javier_ | Alguien que hable español? | 17:48 |
| Seveas | if only dnssec would work properly, then this kind of sabotage wouldn't be possible :) | 17:48 |

| Bashing-om | Unknownfreq: Not completely sure As I do not run a Mac .. but I do think all the 64 not .iso images are th dame for all 3 architechures these days . | 18:00 |
| Unknownfreq | If I just press 'Try Ubuntu' I just get a black screen, so I guess it is something with the graphic... wierd the instruction does not work | 18:01 |

| uasudfh | I am getting "no such file or directory" when I try to work with a .sh file I KNOW is there as I can see if it I ls | 18:31 |
| Guest76432 | uasudfh: how are you executing the command? | 18:31 |
| uasudfh | well I might back up....it is a .sh installer for PIA vpn. I tried to install it by extracting and double clicking as normal but it opens mousepad which says "the document is not utf valid" | 18:32 |
| uasudfh | so I then tried various .sh commands from various tutorials and it always reslts in "no such file or directory" or sh: 0 errors | 18:33 |
| Guest76432 | still, if it's saying there is "no such file or directory" but you can see the file, we need to know what you're attempting to execute | 18:33 |
| Guest76432 | are you trying to execute the sh? | 18:33 |
| uasudfh | I am following the diretions to install the PIA client on 16.04 xubuntu...stand by for the commands | 18:33 |
| Guest76432 | if so, you have to prepend ./ to identify that the script is in the current directory rather than those identified in path. | 18:34 |
| uasudfh | I tried these http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/run-execute-sh-shell-script/ | 18:34 |
| uasudfh | ./ was one of them | 18:34 |
| uasudfh | and I was in the parent directory for sure as I did ls to verify the file name | 18:35 |
| Guest76432 | copy and paste your exact command into this channel please | 18:35 |
| uasudfh | ./pia-v61-installer.sh | 18:36 |
| akik | uasudfh: make sure that the first line of the sh script doesn't contain a windows line ending character | 18:36 |
| uasudfh | results in "no such file or directory" | 18:36 |
| uasudfh | akik: I dont know what a windows line ending character is | 18:36 |
| akik | uasudfh: can you pastebin "head -1 script.sh | od -c" ? | 18:37 |
| Guest76432 | from the current directly, do this: cat pia-v61-installer.sh | nc termbin.com 9999 | 18:37 |
| Guest76432 | paste the output link here | 18:37 |
| === fadavi1 is now known as fadavi | ||
| uasudfh | akik: head: cannot open 'pia-v61-installer.sh' for reading: No such file or directory http://paste.ubuntu.com/20634053/ | 18:38 |
| rypervenche | uasudfh: Are you using tab auto-complete? | 18:39 |
| akik | uasudfh: ummm you're in the wrong directory? | 18:39 |
| uasudfh | akik: I am in the proper directory and did an ls to see | 18:39 |
| rypervenche | uasudfh: Try typing ./pi then hit tab. | 18:40 |
| Guest76432 | ls | nc termbin.com 9999 | 18:40 |
| Guest76432 | that will allow us to see the contents of your directory | 18:40 |
| akik | uasudfh: also "file pia-v61-installer.sh" | 18:40 |
| uasudfh | rypervenche: nothing happens | 18:40 |
| rypervenche | uasudfh: Then either the file name is wrong, or it's not in that directory. Give us that output of ls please. | 18:40 |
| uasudfh | http://paste.ubuntu.com/20634439/ | 18:41 |
| akik | meta | 18:42 |
| FManTropyx | lol | 18:42 |
| rypervenche | uasudfh: You are in your home directory. Not where the file is. | 18:42 |
| uasudfh | pia-v61-installer.sh: cannot open `pia-v61-installer.sh' (No such file or directory) | 18:42 |
| uasudfh | ryper I did cd Downloads | 18:42 |
| uasudfh | and then ls | 18:42 |
| uasudfh | that means I am in the proper directory no? | 18:42 |
| akik | uasudfh: take it one step at a time :) don't hurry | 18:42 |
| Guest76432 | sudo updatedb && locate pia-v61-installer.sh | 18:43 |
| rypervenche | uasudfh: You just ran ls and you are currectly in your home directory. Run "cd Downloads" again. | 18:43 |
| Guest76432 | that will allow you to find the file | 18:43 |
| OerHeks | read their manual man >> https://helpdesk.privateinternetaccess.com/hc/en-us/articles/219438217-Installing-the-PIA-App-on-Linux | 18:44 |
| uasudfh | ok I am in Downloads for sure | 18:44 |
| uasudfh | OerHeks: I did read that and it's not working as the man says. There are tons of posts in their forums with people ahving installer troubles but no one solution | 18:44 |
| OerHeks | uasudfh, then contact helpdesk@privateinternetaccess.com | 18:45 |
| akik | uasudfh: use "ls", "cd" and "pwd" to browser your home dir to find the correct path | 18:45 |
| rypervenche | uasudfh: Run the command that Guest76432 showed you. | 18:45 |
| uasudfh | I am trying to solve it before I send off an email that might take days to be answered. | 18:45 |
| OerHeks | not much we can do | 18:45 |
| uasudfh | rypervenche: which one? I am getting lost | 18:45 |
| uasudfh | I am in Downloads for sure...can see the installer | 18:46 |
| akik | sure we can help a person start a shell script | 18:46 |
| Guest76432 | uasudfh: run the commands above that i showed you | 18:46 |
| Guest76432 | sorry, lol ,read wrong line | 18:46 |
| Guest76432 | thought you were repeating an old problem | 18:46 |
| Guest76432 | uasudfh: a script not working is different from not finding a file | 18:46 |
| Guest76432 | sudo updatedb && locate pia-v61-installer.sh | 18:46 |
| uasudfh | guest I know where the file is...have alerady done that | 18:46 |
| Guest76432 | This will index files in your computer, then find the file that you're trying to run. It will tell us which directory it resides in. | 18:46 |
| uasudfh | its in Downloads | 18:46 |
| Guest76432 | so, what's the new error? | 18:47 |
| rypervenche | uasudfh: How are you "seeing" it? | 18:47 |
| Guest76432 | if you've physically found the file, then you should not be receiving that same error | 18:47 |
| uasudfh | I havent done anything yet to get some new errors | 18:47 |
| uasudfh | I am getting conflicting advice so am trying to sort it | 18:47 |
| Guest76432 | attempt to: ./scriptname.sh again | 18:47 |
| Guest76432 | it all actually similar advice :) | 18:47 |
| uasudfh | Guest76432: before I run that how do I undo it if I need to? | 18:48 |
| uasudfh | remove it | 18:48 |
| Guest76432 | (a) ensure you know the location of the file (b) attempt to run the script (c) if b fails then ensure there are proper permissions to run, etc. | 18:48 |
| Guest76432 | uasudfh: removing a file that is installed via a script is not necessarily straight forward. | 18:48 |
| uasudfh | Guest76432: this is a problem then because so much I try on advice messes something up and I don't want to mess it up more. I am getting frustrated than half of the time linux stuff doesn;t work as tutorials say or it breaks something else | 18:49 |
| uasudfh | people give you a command but dont tell you that it adds things you cant change or isn't easy to reverse | 18:50 |
| LENNYMAN | FEEL THE LENNY ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) | 18:50 |
| rypervenche | uasudfh: That is what happens with custom scripts that don't come from the package manager. | 18:50 |
| uasudfh | I just want to use a vpn but every tutorial doesn't go as planned and their support forums re full of people with problems | 18:50 |
| Guest76432 | Ubuntu is simple as a desktop environment. Administering on a linux computer is a different story. | 18:50 |
| moestevens | Ubuntu isn't a DE? | 18:51 |
| Guest76432 | I didn't say that | 18:51 |
| Guest76432 | Okay, sure, Unity | 18:51 |
| Guest76432 | bleh | 18:51 |
| Guest76432 | People here are so ridiculous sometimes. | 18:51 |
| akik | uasudfh: can you pastebin "head -1 pia-v61-installer.sh | od -c". that'll tell you the shell interpreter that is used | 18:51 |
| Guest76432 | If I speak to someone at this level, he's not going to know about the various services. What's the point of complicating things for him? | 18:52 |
| uasudfh | akik what will knowing that do for me? | 18:52 |
| uasudfh | I know the difference between a DE and a distro....please dont fight guys | 18:52 |
| uasudfh | I just dont know the terminal and when things dont go just like a step by step tutorial says I get lost | 18:52 |
| uasudfh | I am using bash if that's what you mean akik | 18:53 |
| Guest76432 | uasaudfh: these are investigation methods. there is a nothing going on here that is changing your computer. What he was trying to do is look at the first line of the script file and see if there are inappropriate line terminating characters which can cause unexpected program behavior. You do'nt normally see the "escaped" characters like \n \r etc | 18:54 |
| uasudfh | ok I think one problem was as said long ago I was not actually in the proper directory even though I thought so | 18:54 |
| Guest76432 | what's the new problem? | 18:55 |
| uasudfh | my problem right now is I am trying to understand what running this shell will do | 18:55 |
| uasudfh | and how I can undo it if it messes up.. | 18:55 |
| uasudfh | I dont want to fire a bullet I cannot call back if that makes sense | 18:55 |
| Guest76432 | uasudfh: it shouldn't destroy anything in the OS. at most it'll probably install openvpn, and then put some config files on your HDD. | 18:56 |
| akik | uasudfh: if the sh script has been edited in windows, it'll have wrong line ending character | 18:56 |
| === Isla_de_Muerte is now known as NwS | ||
| akik | uasudfh: windows uses \r\n and linux uses \n. that od -c command will show it | 18:57 |
| uasudfh | yeah the first problem was for sure me being in the wrong directory....I am reading more before I run it and break something else | 18:58 |

| minimec | Dark_Blue_Bird: For once I agree with you, but that software-center is gnome3 default. You will find it in Fedora too ;) | 19:15 |
| extinct_potato | software center is garbage in my opinion | 19:16 |
| extinct_potato | I mean, it's an easy way to install apps, but in the long term you should just learn apt-get/synaptic to manage your packages. | 19:17 |

| michael_mbp | hi all | 19:19 |
| michael_mbp | what's a good strategy for naming primary partitions for trying different OSes? | 19:19 |
| michael_mbp | for example I want to run arch, freebsd etc etc and boot to whatever as I need. | 19:19 |
| extinct_potato | You don't really *name* partitions michael_mbp | 19:20 |
| Drunkwizard | Exactly. | 19:21 |
| extinct_potato | it's not Windows :P | 19:21 |
| Drunkwizard | It is choosen, automatically by system, if I am not mistaken. | 19:21 |
| extinct_potato | You're right Drunkwizard. | 19:21 |
| EriC^^ | you can give them labels | 19:21 |
| extinct_potato | well yes, but later on. | 19:21 |
| extinct_potato | but it doesn't matter anyway | 19:22 |
| Drunkwizard | EriC^^: That stuff, lies in after installing the OS itself. | 19:22 |
| extinct_potato | my Ubuntu partition is for eg. called 'Hard russian drugs' so I guess it's up to everyone.. | 19:22 |
| EriC^^ | Drunkwizard: not really, it's part of the partition itself | 19:22 |
| minimec | michael_mbp: Keep in ming that you only have 4 promary partitions, And one is maybe taken by efi/uefi. I recommend one (only) swap (primary) for all the OS's you want to use. If you install the whole OS on one partition, you might want to install that one on a primary partiton. Otherwise use extended... | 19:22 |
| ioria | if uefi, is gtp | 19:23 |
| Drunkwizard | Either way, just install in some partition and the Bootloader will detect the OS. | 19:23 |

| Seveas | shwarzer: if you install ubuntu as vm under windows, it'll take up some resources while windows is running. If you install them side by side as dual boot, neither has an effect on the performance of the other. | 19:40 |
| Seveas | AntiVirGear: we don't suppport zorin. | 19:40 |
| Seveas | !zorin | 19:40 |
| shwarzer | tq bye Seveas EriC^^ | 19:40 |
| AntiVirGear | I know but it is technicaly just ubuntu with a little bit more fancy, right? | 19:41 |
| Seveas | no, it's a separate distro, find help in the appropriate place. | 19:41 |

| EriC^^ | AntiVirGear: does "ip a" show it? | 19:48 |
| michael_mbp | EriC^^: I did systemctl set-default multi-user.target, how can I revert it? | 19:48 |
| EriC^^ | AntiVirGear: maybe some kind of block? try rfkill list | 19:49 |
| EriC^^ | michael_mbp: no idea, but isn't that the default target anyways? | 19:49 |
| michael_mbp | aha! | 19:50 |
| michael_mbp | systemctl start lightdm did the trick | 19:50 |
| michael_mbp | EriC^^: preceded it with systemctl enable multi-user.target --force | 19:50 |

| michael_mbp | ah gotcha! | 19:50 |
| michael_mbp | epic, thanks Seveas | 19:50 |

| sambagirl | hey seveas | 19:51 |
| michael_mbp | just enables that target? | 19:51 |
| michael_mbp | suppose it's disabled by default | 19:51 |
| Seveas | hey sambagirl :) | 19:51 |
| Seveas | michael_mbp: no clue. I just did systemctl get-default on my non-modified system and gave you what it spat out :) | 19:52 |
| michael_mbp | ha cheers :) | 19:52 |
| Seveas | systemd is something I really need to learn more about | 19:53 |
| michael_mbp | Seveas: I love it. Use it on my production systems, really epic way for managing services. | 19:53 |
| michael_mbp | things like nginx, or any process really | 19:53 |
| michael_mbp | and `journalctl -f` is equally epic. | 19:53 |
| michael_mbp | (basically your sys log in real-time) | 19:54 |
| Seveas | michael_mbp: I really quite like it as well, but unfortunately work is still it centos 6 mostly, so old cruddy init and rsyslog | 19:54 |
| michael_mbp | ok so I tried running `dpkg-reconfigure console-setup` to increase my TTYs font size to 18 but that's still tooooo small thoughts? | 19:54 |
| michael_mbp | ahh. | 19:55 |
| sambagirl | i need to assign a domain to a local server with a static ip here and i was wondering if someone could point me to to the correct way to do it. i read a bunch of stuff but confused by the conflicts in approaches. it is 14.04lts server | 19:55 |
| Seveas | sambagirl: that completely depends on your DNS setup | 19:55 |
| sambagirl | what do you mean by that seveas? currently the dns servers are from the isp for that ip/server. | 19:56 |
| sambagirl | i installed bind9 btw | 19:56 |
| michael_mbp | ugh I wish there was a way to get sudo to shutup | 19:57 |
| michael_mbp | like authenticate sudo for the next 30 mins or something? | 19:57 |
| michael_mbp | being in the sudoers file is no point. | 19:57 |
| Seveas | michael_mbp: NOPASSWD:ALL :P | 19:57 |
| michael_mbp | yay I just restored my grub... | 19:57 |
| michael_mbp | AHH doh, forgot that | 19:57 |
| michael_mbp | see, I normally do deploys with ansible or chef ha. | 19:58 |
| Seveas | sambagirl: how/where is the domain registered and where's the dns for that domain? | 19:58 |
| Seveas | michael_mbp: man sudo, see timestamp_timeout. Usually it's 15 minutes. | 20:00 |

| michael_mbp | doing dpkg-reconfigure locales too | 20:07 |
| michael_mbp | ah cheers | 20:07 |
| Seveas | yeah, apparently you're not supposed to edit that file anymore. There's an update-locale command | 20:07 |
| michael_mbp | yeah just tried that | 20:07 |
| Seveas | I have a weird locale set up. Want en_US for texts, but can't stand the stupid time/numbers formatting | 20:08 |
| michael_mbp | do I need to restart or spawn a new tty? | 20:08 |

| michael_mbp | oddness!! | 20:10 |
| Seveas | that's definitely not necessary | 20:10 |
| sambagirl | seveas it's truely impresive how far ubuntu/linux has come isn't it? think about way back when :) | 20:10 |
| michael_mbp | sambagirl: indeed :D | 20:10 |
| Seveas | sambagirl: continuous improvement is a good thing :) When did we first meet? I bet it was before I was married and got a kid :) | 20:11 |
| sambagirl | i've been running it ever since whaory or 5 | 20:11 |
| michael_mbp | update-locale didn't change my file though BTW | 20:11 |
| sambagirl | when Fred2 was here seveas that long ago. | 20:11 |
| Seveas | sambagirl: I don't remember Fred2 | 20:12 |
| sambagirl | back when they sent out boxes of different flavors of ubuntu for people to distribute. i got like 6 boxes of every type of architecture | 20:12 |
| sambagirl | ahh ok | 20:12 |
| michael_mbp | Seveas: so update-locale isn't picking up changes | 20:12 |
| Seveas | sambagirl: I threw my last few breezy badger boxes out last year :) | 20:12 |

| michael_mbp | yeah | 20:13 |
| Seveas | I must have given away hundreds of those cd's at the time. Did a lot of talks and release parties | 20:14 |
| laurus | I have two partitions, one Linux, one Windows. I want to make the Windows one smaller and the Linux one bigger. What is a safe way to do this? | 20:14 |
| Apachez | get a new drive | 20:14 |
| sambagirl | i gave tons away too. btw i think i will give noip a shot on this domain thing on that server. | 20:15 |
| laurus | Apachez, what? | 20:15 |
| Apachez | well you wanted a safe way | 20:15 |
| akik | laurus: gparted can probably do it | 20:15 |
| Apachez | the none safe ways are to use a software that will resize your partitions and hopefully things will still work afterwards | 20:15 |
| Apachez | you should still take backup | 20:15 |
| laurus | Apachez, well, when I got the computer, it had Windows pre-installed. I somehow shrank that partition and made a new one. | 20:15 |
| === Guest18328 is now known as k9_ | ||
| laurus | But I forgot how... it was years ago :( | 20:16 |
| Seveas | laurus: make a backup of all your data, then boot a live cd with gparted | 20:16 |
| sambagirl | seveas you know, you are one of the originals. so was Fred2. | 20:16 |
| Apachez | which gives getting a new drive and reinstall is the fastest and safest way :) | 20:16 |
| laurus | Seveas, okay. | 20:16 |
| Apachez | also you get rid of old malwares who got onto your windows installation =) | 20:16 |
| laurus | I never use Windows except maybe once per year | 20:16 |
| laurus | Anyway | 20:16 |
| laurus | So resizing a Windows partition with gparted doesn't mess it up? | 20:16 |
| Seveas | shouldn't. Just don't move it, or shrink from the left (which is actually a move) | 20:17 |
| Seveas | but, make a backup. | 20:17 |
| OerHeks | i would do the windows partition from within windows | 20:17 |
| Seveas | any advice received in here comes without warranty :) | 20:17 |
| Seveas | OerHeks: I'd nuke the windows partition :-) | 20:17 |
| laurus | I just looked at gparted and it shows /dev/sda1, sda2, and sda3 are ntfs. | 20:18 |
| sambagirl | oh another question. can you use wubi with ubuntu 16.04 in windows 10? | 20:18 |
| Seveas | isn't wubi deprecated/dead these days? | 20:18 |
| laurus | Then sda4 is "extended", and seems to contain sda5 which is linux-swap, and sda6 which is ext4. | 20:18 |
| michael_mbp | lol Seveas this is kicking my ass... doing a reboot. | 20:18 |
| OerHeks | Seveas, i wish you could do that, from within windows. | 20:18 |
| akik | laurus: there's tips for shrinking ntfs at http://gparted.org/display-doc.php?name=help-manual&lang=C#gparted-advanced-partition-actions | 20:18 |
| michael_mbp | tried new sessions | 20:18 |
| OerHeks | wubi is dead | 20:18 |
| OerHeks | !wubi | 20:18 |
| ubottu | Wubi was a way to install Ubuntu from within Windows, but it is no longer supported in recent versions of Ubuntu and Windows, and was never well maintained even for Ubuntu 12.04. Do not use Wubi. See !install for other options for installing Ubuntu. | 20:18 |
| sambagirl | shoot | 20:19 |
| laurus | akik, thanks. It's funny how they say "the commercial operating system." | 20:19 |
| michael_mbp | yay reboot fixed it | 20:19 |
| laurus | OerHeks, how do you resize a partition in Windows? | 20:20 |
| Seveas | laurus: in the disk management snap-in in the administrative tools in the control panel | 20:20 |
| laurus | Ah, okay. | 20:20 |
| OerHeks | diskmanagment, click partition, right mouse, etc | 20:20 |
| laurus | But, is it safe to resize a partition while that OS is running? | 20:20 |
| Seveas | if it's not safe, it won't let you do it | 20:21 |
| laurus | Okay. | 20:21 |
| OerHeks | it will show the safe maximum too | 20:21 |
| laurus | So I should do that within Windows. Then, use LiveCD for gparted and resize the Ubuntu partition. | 20:21 |
| OerHeks | onlu linux does not like to be altered when running, you need gparted or live iso for that | 20:21 |
| laurus | And backup first. | 20:21 |
| michael_mbp | thanks all, that was super helpful. Especially Seveas | 20:21 |
| Seveas | you're welcome | 20:21 |

| Tex_Nick | rajivmars: Right Click on desktop and choose Change Desktop Background | 21:22 |
| minimec | rajivmars: 'right click' and 'set as Wallpaper' (at least in unity/gnome), or open them with the according image viewer os kubuntu. There is probably an option too... | 21:23 |

| eqw3rty | join #docker | 21:29 |

| illegalprime | minimec: why would you make this symlink? it will destroy all of the wallpapers that came with plasma? | 21:38 |
| illegalprime | it might be better to do `sudo ln -s /usr/share/backgrounds/* /usr/share/wallpapers/`, I don't have KDE so I can't verify | 21:39 |

| rajivmars | minimec: No. | 21:41 |
| illegalprime | minimec: it does not, what you want is `ln -s /usr/share/backgrounds /usr/share/wallpapers/` | 21:41 |

| rajivmars | minimec: ok. then what should i do now. Have you any idea? | 21:57 |
| ahrc333ff | minimec: gotcha. thx. hoping they start getting back into hacking a bit. but, there was a lot of deviation toward the mid/end of last seasons. | 21:57 |
| minimec | rajivmars: I would try 'sudo ln -s /usr/share/backgrounds/ /usr/share/wallpapers/' That should do... | 21:58 |
| OneM_Industries | Hey, how do I undelete files from a .trash-1000 folder on a USB drive? | 21:59 |
| OneM_Industries | I have some photos in a folder that are rather important. | 22:00 |
| rajivmars | minimec: yes!yes1. you have done:) the command "sudo ln -s /usr/share/backgrounds/ /usr/share/wallpapers/" worked. thankyou:) | 22:01 |
| minimec | rajivmars: ;) | 22:04 |
| rajivmars | minimec: if in the future i will install some wallpapers, then i have to do the same thing to get those.Because i have already created a background folder? | 22:06 |
| minimec | rajivmars: Whatever is placed in /usr/share/backgrounds will also show in /usr/share/wallpapers | 22:07 |
| rajivmars | minimec:ok. | 22:08 |
| xn0r | what's wrong if screen immediately terminates, and only works as root? | 22:10 |
| xn0r | on 16.04 | 22:10 |
| desha | مرحبا | 22:11 |
| desha | Anyone? | 22:12 |
| MonkeyDust | desha anyone what? | 22:12 |
| desha | Speaking | 22:12 |
| YankDownUnder | xn0r: Graphics driver, display manager - most likely. | 22:13 |
| Tex_Nick | desha: if you have a support question ask it | 22:13 |
| MonkeyDust | desha simply ask your question and wait | 22:13 |
| xn0r | YankDownUnder: no, screen is a terminal-only program, there is not even a screen on this server or any graphics card | 22:14 |
| YankDownUnder | xn0r: I mistook your statement, sorry...yes, I know what "screen" is, in that context. | 22:14 |
| desha | Is there any alternative to MD5 ? | 22:15 |
| crafty1__ | sha1 | 22:15 |
| MonkeyDust | desha start from the beginning, what makes you ask that | 22:15 |
| geirha | xn0r: what's the login shell set to? echo "$SHELL" | 22:16 |
| xn0r | /bin/bash | 22:16 |
| geirha | Hm. Do you have a ~/.screenrc ? | 22:17 |
| xn0r | nope | 22:17 |
| geirha | and ''type screen'' doesn't reveal any alias or function? | 22:18 |
| xn0r | no, just /usr/bin/screen | 22:18 |
| akik | xn0r: check that you own the screen socket dir in /var/run/screen/ | 22:20 |
| geirha | Hm. Try asking #screen. They might some way to get some useful error messages out of it | 22:20 |
| xn0r | drwx------ 2 myuser myuser 40 <date> S-myuser | 22:21 |
| xn0r | and the screen directory itself: drwxrwsr-x 4 root utmp 80 Jul 23 20:27 . | 22:22 |
| akik | xn0r: is the exit value something other than 0? echo $? | 22:23 |
| xn0r | akik: it's zero | 22:24 |
| xn0r | quite puzzling | 22:24 |
| akik | xn0r: and screen -ls doesn't list the session? | 22:25 |
| ahrc333ff | xn0r: seems like a permission issue | 22:25 |
| geirha | You'd think screen would output a permission denied issue if that was the case | 22:26 |
| geirha | s/issue/error/ | 22:27 |
| ahrc333ff | geirha: perhaps, but if it's working as root then the application itself is fine. | 22:27 |
| ahrc333ff | for kicks, i'd at least try ls -l /usr/bin/screen | 22:27 |
| xn0r | there is no session | 22:27 |
| xn0r | No Sockets found in /var/run/screen/S-myuser | 22:27 |
| xn0r | the directory in /var/run/screen is empty | 22:28 |
| xn0r | -rwxr-sr-x 1 root utmp 434216 Feb 7 11:11 /usr/bin/screen | 22:28 |
| akik | xn0r: what happens if you run "screen top" | 22:28 |
| geirha | xn0r: Does screen /bin/sh work? | 22:29 |
| ahrc333ff | xn0r: permissions look correct. | 22:29 |
| xn0r | same, immediately terminates: cleared screen and "[screen is terminating]" | 22:29 |
| xn0r | that's all I get | 22:29 |
| akik | xn0r: has it ever worked? :) | 22:29 |
| ahrc333ff | sounds like it's exiting cleanly. returns 0 and displays standard exit text.... | 22:30 |
| xn0r | on this system? no, first time I've tried, but on many others .. yes | 22:30 |
| ahrc333ff | still seems like a perms issue to me. but the permission just isn't on the binary itself | 22:32 |
| ahrc333ff | anything useful in strace? | 22:32 |
| akik | beats me | 22:32 |
| akik | xn0r: "dpkg -V screen" ? | 22:33 |
| xn0r | could there be something wrong with the pts? | 22:33 |
| xn0r | akik: no output, 0 exit | 22:34 |
| xn0r | dpkg -l: ii screen 4.3.1-2build1 amd64 | 22:35 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: does it happen from a fresh terminal/ | 22:35 |
| xn0r | I only have remote access over ssh, but relogging doesn't help, I've tried | 22:36 |
| geirha | does screen -m -d to start it detached, work? | 22:37 |
| xn0r | no, well nothing is running afterwards | 22:38 |
| geirha | right, so screen -ls is still empty | 22:38 |
| geirha | then I don't think the problem is with the pty | 22:38 |
| xn0r | yes still no sockets | 22:39 |
| akik | xn0r: maybe something in the global screenrc which kills it? | 22:39 |
| fiatjaf_ | I've installed ubuntu-server 16.04, then i3 and I'm using to run GUI applications in my desktop. most things are fine, but sometimes a gtk app will crash saying "Gtk-WARNING **: Could not find the icon 'drive-removable-media'. The 'hicolor' theme was not found either, perhaps you need to install it." | 22:39 |
| akik | it sounds like a permission issue because it works for the root user | 22:40 |
| fiatjaf_ | I have this hicolor-icon-theme installed, there are a lot of other icon themes under /usr/share/icons | 22:40 |
| ahrc333ff | akik: agree, but could be a painful process looking at al the libs, files, etc. and their perms just to confirm o_0 | 22:41 |
| xn0r | can someone do a ls -l /dev|grep pts; ls -l /dev/pts/ ? | 22:41 |
| fiatjaf_ | the last one to fail was linthesia | 22:41 |
| xn0r | akik: no I've tried purging the package before and reinstalling | 22:42 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: try ls -ld /var/run/screen | 22:42 |
| EriC^^ | drwxrwxr-x 3 root utmp | 22:43 |
| xn0r | yes | 22:43 |
| xn0r | I've done that before, posted a couple minutes ago | 22:43 |
| EriC^^ | that was for screen | 22:43 |
| akik | xn0r: i meant a device file permission issue | 22:43 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: you posted it earlier? | 22:44 |
| EriC^^ | drwxrwsr-x 4 root utmp ? | 22:44 |
| EriC^^ | that's odd cause mine isn't guid | 22:45 |
| EriC^^ | lower case s means it's not +x for group | 22:45 |
| xn0r | the binary is | 22:45 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: try ls -ld /var/run/screen | 22:46 |
| xn0r | but maybe setguid doesn't work on my system? | 22:46 |
| geirha | no, lowercase s is x + setgid. | 22:46 |
| EriC^^ | geirha: ah | 22:46 |
| geirha | uppercase S means x is missing | 22:46 |
| xn0r | I have posted this before, matches what others have | 22:46 |
| EriC^^ | maybe it still affects stuff though? | 22:46 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: i dont have +s | 22:46 |
| EriC^^ | and i've never touched that dir iirc | 22:46 |
| EriC^^ | somebody else try ls -ld /var/run/screen too to confirm | 22:47 |
| geirha | /usr/bin/screen has the s | 22:47 |
| xn0r | me neither, I've deleted and freshly installed the package, that's the stock permissions | 22:47 |
| akik | drwxrwxr-x 3 root utmp 60 Jul 15 20:04 /var/run/screen/ | 22:47 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: which ubuntu are you using? | 22:47 |
| fiatjaf_ | oh, it runs with sudo | 22:47 |
| xn0r | 16.04 | 22:48 |
| EriC^^ | thanks akik | 22:48 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: same here, try sudo chmod 775 /var/run/screen | 22:48 |
| xn0r | it is 775 | 22:48 |
| xn0r | I think setguid is broken on my system | 22:49 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: try sudo chmod 0775 /var/run/screen | 22:49 |
| EriC^^ | also confirm what's inside with ls -l /var/run/screen | 22:49 |
| EriC^^ | should be 700 for the user and his group | 22:50 |
| xn0r | it is, we've checked the file permissions | 22:50 |
| EriC^^ | ah i see | 22:51 |
| ahrc333ff | i'm wondering ofthe perms issue is with one of the many libs or something that loads when execve calls screen | 22:51 |
| ahrc333ff | strace screen might show some sort of error | 22:51 |
| ahrc333ff | will take some digging through though | 22:51 |
| xn0r | the last lines are: exit_group(1) = ?, +++ exited with 1 +++ | 22:53 |
| pezdispenser | I'm trying to format my HDD, using ubuntu live usb using gparted, it keeps saying " the driver descriptor says the physical block size is 2048 bytes, but linux says it is 512 bytes, " how Can I fix this , I need to format it to fat 32 | 22:53 |
| ahrc333ff | xn0r: the problems probably wouldn't be in the exit lines, unfortunately. | 22:53 |
| xn0r | with strace the exit code changes to 1, without it's still 0 | 22:53 |
| === newguy is now known as Guest45894 | ||
| ahrc333ff | interesting. it should exit 0 | 22:55 |
| ahrc333ff | perhaps there is a lib in there that has bad perms | 22:55 |
| ahrc333ff | scroll through and look at errors. access denied types | 22:55 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: try mkdir ~/.screen; SCREENDIR=$HOME/.screen | 22:55 |
| EriC^^ | it's a workaround apparently | 22:56 |
| pezdispenser | I can install ubuntu on it fresh easy , just cannot seem to format it to prep for a windows install | 22:56 |
| Nooby_One | hello | 22:56 |
| MonkeyDust | pezdispenser iirc, the windows installer asks to format it, too | 22:57 |
| EriC^^ | xn0r: try mount | grep pts | 22:57 |
| pezdispenser | MonkeyDust: yes i've seen that before but it keeps going to some grub recovery menu or something it seems, so I figured I'd just prep the HDD beforehand to get rid of this, but to no avail | 22:57 |
| ahrc333ff | if you want to post output from strace, you can strace screen > dump && cat dump | nc termbin.com 999 | 22:58 |
| ahrc333ff | 9 | 22:58 |
| ahrc333ff | 9999* | 22:58 |
| GrnMessiah | I don't remember disk partitioning in Ubuntu, does it use something similar to CFdisk? | 23:00 |
| xn0r | ahrc333ff: can you try and see if in your strace output you also get getuid() = <your user id>, same for getgid(), geteuid(), getegid() ? | 23:00 |
| Nooby_One_Nooby | hello | 23:00 |
| ahrc333ff | xn0r: im running kali as root in VM, so it's root by default | 23:00 |
| ahrc333ff | but, i'll look | 23:00 |
| GrnMessiah | Are you suicidal, ahrc333ff? | 23:01 |
| GrnMessiah | Kali has a weak defence, but a good offence. | 23:01 |
| pezdispenser | running the windows 10 disk just brings up " operating system not found ; / | 23:01 |
| ahrc333ff | GrnMessiah: lol. running inside osx with a host-only connection | 23:01 |
| xn0r | then can someone else run this please? strace screen -m -d 2>&1|grep get | 23:02 |
| GrnMessiah | Ah . . . | 23:02 |
| ahrc333ff | getrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, {rlim_cur=1024, rlim_max=4*1024}) = 0 | 23:02 |

| ahrc333ff | getgid() = 0 | 23:02 |
| ahrc333ff | geteuid() = 0 | 23:02 |
| ahrc333ff | getegid() = 43 | 23:02 |
| ahrc333ff | in caseit helps. | 23:03 |
| MonkeyDust | ahrc333ff next time, use a pastebin ... http://paste.ubuntu.com/20665622/ | 23:03 |
| turbo64 | whats the difference between using aptitude and apt-get | 23:06 |
| monk_ | jh | 23:06 |
| minimec | pezdispenser: It has to do with the harddrive. Newer harddrives have secot rsizes of 4k (4096 bytes) and emulates 8*512 bytes. So at my knowledge gparted per default aligns to 1MB (1.048.576 bytes == 32 sectors * 64 heads * 512 bytes) Newer windows system should do that too. | 23:06 |
| akik | xn0r: http://pastebin.com/raw/PXRaXGBA | 23:07 |

| xn0r | strace messes up screen, in strace it says in the end that Directory '/var/run/screen' must have mode 777. | 23:15 |
| xn0r | if I give it o+w it says, Directory ... must have mode 775. | 23:15 |
| xn0r | what a farce | 23:16 |
| ahrc333ff | well, at least that still points toward perms issue somewhere. lol | 23:16 |
| ahrc333ff | if you exit screen strace should just finish | 23:16 |
| akik | xn0r: did you install that box yourself? | 23:17 |
| ahrc333ff | and since it exits automatically | 23:17 |
| xn0r | with strace the exit code is also different, so strace messes something up | 23:17 |
| ahrc333ff | strace shouldn't mess anything up o_0 when i run it i get teturn status of 0 | 23:18 |
| ahrc333ff | for me /var/run/screen is 755 and /var/run/screen/S-root is 700 | 23:19 |
| skinux | Is there a special way I need to "burn" latest 386 image to USB in order to get it to boot and install? | 23:19 |
| akik | skinux: just write it to your usb stick with dd | 23:20 |
| xn0r | it definitely messes with the setguid | 23:20 |
| akik | skinux: umount the stick first | 23:20 |
| skinux | I don't know how to use dd | 23:21 |
| akik | skinux: "sudo dd if=isofile.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1024k" make sure /dev/sdX is your usb stick or bad things happen | 23:21 |
| skinux | How do I make sure it's my USB? | 23:22 |
| skinux | fdisk? | 23:22 |
| akik | skinux: sudo parted -l maybe | 23:22 |
| ahrc333ff | xn0r: time for tmux ^_^ lol | 23:22 |
| minimec | plug the stick and run 'dmesg' in a terminal. | 23:22 |
| akik | ahrc333ff: i was waiting for that comment and yes there's something wrong with xn0r's installation | 23:23 |
| ahrc333ff | akik: haha. agree | 23:24 |
| akik | xn0r: did you try creating a new user and test with that? | 23:24 |
| xn0r | well I've switched to the new user with su - testuser, now I get Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/0' - please check. | 23:26 |

| Ubuntu_Fail | Hello! Is anyone familiar with getting nvidia drivers to work? I've been struggling for months... | 23:51 |
| wad | I upgraded a machine from 14.04 to 16.04, but it seems to have deleted "/var/share". I'm very sad... I had a bunch of files in there. :( Was I dumb to put them there? | 23:54 |
| === knoxyy is now known as knoxy | ||
| YankDownUnder | wad: Yeah...not really a great choice of location...but now you know...hmm...pick a better place next time...possibly something in your "home" directory instead? | 23:55 |
| wad | That was where I had a bunch of files for people on the network to find over samba. | 23:56 |
| wad | Now a bunch of family photos are permanently lost. And I am sad. | 23:56 |
| wad | Where should I put files that samba can share? | 23:57 |
| wad | They don't go under my home directory. | 23:57 |
| YankDownUnder | wad: You could always create a "share" in the /home directory - either which, have you tried to look into some of the applications and utilities for "undeleting" files on the linux file systems? That might be worth a go, eh...? | 23:57 |
| wad | When I did the in-place upgrade, it complained about some boot stuff. So at that point, I made a backup of the drive, then wiped the original and reinstalled fresh. But when I'm moving stuff from my backup, /var/share doesn't exist anymore. Obviously, I should have backed it up BEFORE doing the in-place upgrade. | 23:58 |
