| R13ose | YankDownUnder: Stable release 5.7.2 (19 July 2016; 8 days ago) which is on Wiki. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| YankDownUnder | R13ose: This is the basics of what I followed to create a stable KDE/Plasma environment: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/05/install-kde-plasma-5-6-kubuntu-16-04/ | 00:00 |
| R13ose | YankDownUnder: are you saying 5.7.x is not out there yet for auto upgrade? | 00:04 |
| YankDownUnder | R13ose: I haven't looked - and, as a matter of fact, I'm kinda browsing now... | 00:04 |
| R13ose | YankDownUnder: thanks | 00:05 |
| YankDownUnder | R13ose: http://linoxide.com/linux-how-to/install-kde-plasma-5-7-ubuntu-fedora-opensuse-arch-linux/ | 00:06 |
| R13ose | YankDownUnder: I saw that but that install not upgrade isn't this? | 00:07 |
| YankDownUnder | R13ose: However, that being said, I'm going to sit and wait as things are running quite well for *me* at the moment...therefore, I'm not in a rush, and this is basically a production workstation...so I'm happy with it's current performance... :) | 00:07 |
| YankDownUnder | R13ose: Read through it - it's an "upgrade" when you look through to the finer points. | 00:07 |
| R13ose | okay | 00:08 |
| YankDownUnder | R13ose: It's all a matter of preference and choice. | 00:08 |
| R13ose | YankDownUnder: "kubuntu-desktop is already the newest version (1.338)" | 00:09 |
| YankDownUnder | R13ose: Did you comletely read the entire page prior to attempting the upgrade/dist-upgrade? | 00:10 |
| Ben64 | be aware that using 3rd party repositories is not supported | 00:11 |
| R13ose | Yes | 00:11 |
| R13ose | YankDownUnder: ^ | 00:11 |
| bernd | wie schaltet man hier die übersetzung ein? | 00:11 |
| R13ose | YankDownUnder: I re-read and I see what you mean, thanks. | 00:12 |
| dax | bernd: English here, please. /join #ubuntu-de for German. | 00:12 |
| YankDownUnder | R13ose: Fair enough...I'd offer to try it, but, as I said, this system is stable right now, and it's early in the day - so any attempt to muck about with stuff that are going to interrupt my operations will have to wait until later this evening...hmm...however, that being said, I'm going to muck with it later...but just not right now... | 00:12 |
| bernd | danke, ist aber keine antwort auf meine Frage... | 00:12 |
| R13ose | YankDownUnder: thanks for all the help. | 00:12 |
| YankDownUnder | R13ose: You're more than welcome. Peace. | 00:13 |
| zrooLik | hey everyone | 00:15 |
| zrooLik | i've got a problem in my ubuntu | 00:15 |
| zrooLik | E:Malformed entry 43 in list file /etc/apt/sources.list (Component), E:The list of sources could not be read. | 00:15 |
| zrooLik | some know how I can solve this issue ? | 00:15 |
| YankDownUnder | zrooLik: Have you looked at line 43 in the sources.list ? | 00:16 |
| zrooLik | I havent | 00:16 |
| zrooLik | i'm a new user | 00:16 |
| YankDownUnder | zrooLik: Ah. | 00:16 |
| Bashing-om | zrooLik: 'cat /etc/apt/sources.list ' and compare line 43 to others and adjust it . | 00:16 |
| vishera | me neither | 00:16 |
| zrooLik | sorry ;/ | 00:16 |
| YankDownUnder | :) | 00:16 |
| vishera | where am I? | 00:17 |
| bernd | wie komme ich in ubuntu-de? | 00:17 |
| Bashing-om | vishera: As per the topic .. this is ubuntu support channel . | 00:17 |

| forever_ | whatsup | 00:18 |
| bazhang | ubuntu support only here forever_ | 00:18 |
| forever_ | i knw | 00:19 |
| YankDownUnder | OMG this is Ubuntu support? And here, all these years, I thought it was an IRC channel for vegetarian recipes...dang... | 00:19 |
| bazhang | chit chat elsewhere forever_ | 00:19 |
| zrooLik | so Bashin-om | 00:20 |
| zrooLik | bashing-om | 00:20 |
| forever_ | how can i get to downgrade from backbox 4.3 to 3.3 | 00:20 |
| zrooLik | what should I do exactly ? dont really understand what should I do to solve it | 00:20 |
| dax | forever_: ask the Backbox folks | 00:20 |
| bazhang | forever_, ask in a backbox channel its not supported here | 00:21 |
| dax | ubottu: backbox | 00:21 |
| ubottu | Backbox Linux is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu and is thus not supported in #ubuntu. Please use #backbox on irc.autistici.org or https://forum.backbox.org/ for help with it. | 00:21 |
| YankDownUnder | zrooLik: Line 43 - are you looking at it? Have you compared your "sources.list" with any others? | 00:21 |
| zrooLik | no I havent | 00:21 |
| zrooLik | where should i find more of this sources.list ? | 00:21 |
| YankDownUnder | zrooLik: Tell you what - why don't you use "pastebin" to put up YOUR copy of the "sources.list" and we can have a look-see at it, hmm? | 00:22 |
| zrooLik | i'm a realy newb ah | 00:24 |
| forever_ | whats the channel number for backbox folks | 00:24 |
| s_spiff | anyone know how to ensure nvidia driver is used instead of the onboard graphics intel driver? The nvidia-settings shows Nividia in use, but when I use inxi -Fx in the terminal, it shows intel driver loaded | 00:24 |
| dax | forever_: see ubottu's comment | 00:24 |
| forever_ | gotcha | 00:25 |

| danemacmillan | I'm in a login loop from unity login. I enter my password, then just start back at the login. I ssh'd in, and my user does not have its encrypted home directory mounted, and it won't mount. | 00:29 |
| danemacmillan | ANyone experiencing something like this? | 00:29 |
| yonakaKuramori | I would guess that your shell was set to /bin/login, somehow. | 00:32 |
| MGray | Hey everyone. Would anyone have any info on booting from linux USB on an HP Spectre? I have been trying with an MBR Rufus created USB, but it's not picking it up for some reason #hp-bios-fail | 00:33 |
| tomer_ | hello. I'm try to follow the answer given here: (http://askubuntu.com/questions/715306/xbacklight-no-outputs-have-backlight-property-no-sys-class-backlight-folder). I get a "failed to create symbolic link '/sys/class/brightness': Operation not permitted" when doing so. Any suggestions? | 00:33 |
| YankDownUnder | MGray: Have you changed the boot order for BIOS on that machine? | 00:34 |
| yonakaKuramori | danemacmillan: You'd probably want to set it back to bash using chsh, but I think you'd need a working shell to do that. | 00:34 |
| MGray | Hey YankDownUnder . Yes - I have disabled secure boot. Can see the USB drive to boot but it ends up just trying to browse the files which is weird! Writing my ISO to a GPT formatted USB drive shortly to see if that works | 00:35 |
| yonakaKuramori | danemacmillan: Also, you'd need a shell that could open some sort of editor to see if that was the case, by reading /etc/passwd. You could also change your default shell by setting the environment variable $SHELL to the location of a shell. | 00:36 |
| YankDownUnder | MGray: Ok...disabling secure boot works sometimes - but what I was getting at was "boot priority" - the process by which the machine actually boots - what devices it looks for first...hmm... | 00:37 |
| danemacmillan | yonakaKuramori: I can SSH into the box as that same user, and I can see the home directory is not mounted properly with its encrypted contents. | 00:37 |
| yonakaKuramori | danemacmillan: But you can get past the login prompt and get to a shell? | 00:39 |
| MGray | YankDownUnder: yes - machine currently has windows 10 on it. | 00:40 |
| MGray | Success - Using RUFUS for windows with a setting of GPT partition table and FAT32 to write the ISO file worked a treat! :-) | 00:40 |
| tomer_ | brb | 00:40 |
| YankDownUnder | MGray: That is not what I meant, nor what I asked. I wanted to know if you set the boot priority in your BIOS or in the "boot menu" of the BIOS on that machine...so that the USB is the primary device to boot from... | 00:40 |
| YankDownUnder | MGray: All is good, then...all is good... | 00:41 |
| yonakaKuramori | danemacmillan: I think you'd just have to run ecryptfs-mount-private, if you're able to get a shell. | 00:41 |
| yonakaKuramori | danemacmillan: Ah, I reread your statement. I'm not sure in the case of a local login taking you back to the login screen, though I do know that when you ssh in to a system you may have to run ecryptfs-mount-private to mount your home directory. | 00:44 |
| rangergord | I have 16.04.1 installed in a Virtualbox VM. The performance is quite horrible. First, compiz uses a ridiculously high amount of CPU (eg 1 full core when I click the Ubuntu button to show the main menu). But most importantly, randomly I get huge sustained spikes of IO when I open Firefox, freezing the system until I have to force-shutdown. I'm talking read of multiple megabytes per sec. Here's | 00:47 |
| rangergord | 30 seconds of iostat monitoring: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21218030/ . All I did was open Firefox and go to google, didn't even do a search. Main culprits: Firefox, compiz, gnome-terminal-server, X. I doesn't happen automatically, it generally takes 15-20 mins of usage. But when this happens once, I can always reproduce it by opening firefox. | 00:47 |
| rangergord | My questions are: 1) is anyone here using Ubuntu dekstop in a Virtualbox VM without issues? 2) How do I even begin to troubleshoot this? | 00:48 |
| Ben64 | rangergord: i'd suggest not using unity | 00:48 |
| rangergord | Ben64: haha, i try to give it a shot every LTS, but you're right | 00:49 |
| DragonAK | Hey guys | 00:50 |
| DragonAK | Using Ubuntu 8.04 in a 15 years old machine, heeh | 00:50 |
| bazhang | !8.04 | 00:52 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Hardy Heron) was the eighth release of Ubuntu. Desktop support ended on May 12 2011, Server support ended on May 9th 2013. See http://ubottu.com/y/hardy for more details. | 00:52 |
| bazhang | time for an upgrade if you want support DragonAK | 00:52 |
| DragonAK | Heh, surely. I think I'll do an upgrade fest here | 00:53 |
| rangergord | Ben64: I just installed mate-desktop, but where's the option to use it? Typically login screens have an option to select the session type. Does this mean I didn't install it properly, or did someone make another brilliant design decision? | 00:53 |
| bazhang | I am using the not yet released 16.10 on a 12 years old computer DragonAK | 00:54 |
| rangergord | nm, seems like I need ubuntu-mate-desktop, not mate-desktop | 00:55 |
| DragonAK | Whoah, that's cool, bazhang! | 00:56 |
| DragonAK | I hope mine can deal with it, heheh | 00:56 |
| bazhang | DragonAK, so a fresj install of 16.04 LTS should do | 00:56 |
| DragonAK | I'll surely give it a try! | 00:57 |
| Bashing-om | DragonAK: And if you are handy and into exporing ... a minimal install of 16.04 . | 00:57 |
| Bashing-om | !minimal | DragonAK | 00:57 |
| ubottu | DragonAK: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 00:57 |
| DragonAK | Thank you so much, everybody. I'm installing it right now~ | 00:59 |
| DMA | Hello. After upgrading my aunt's laptop to Ubuntu 14.04 LibreOffice isn't opening .ppt files with Impress but with Writer despite default action being Open with Impress. However, .xls do open automatically with Calc and .doc with Writer. Any ideas on how to fix that? | 00:59 |
| bazhang | dma have you asked #libreoffice yet | 01:00 |
| DMA | bazhang: yep | 01:00 |
| DMA | I don't know if the base app needs a parameter or something | 01:01 |

| wyseguy | setting up a new computer with a radeon hd 6850. I read that they were getting rid of the old drivers and now using amdgpu, but little confused on how to get these new drivers working | 01:47 |
| tgm4883 | !details | Alpha | 01:47 |
| ubottu | Alpha: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. | 01:47 |
| wyseguy | i have a tripple monitor setup, but only 2 are working, and the screen has a lot of tearing going on, so i figure its a driver issue | 01:48 |
| tgm4883 | I generally don't respond to questions such as "Anyone using Ubuntu Server 16" | 01:48 |
| Alpha | OK | 01:48 |

| OerHeks | wyseguy, radeon, 16.04,, the open driver takes only 2 monitors IIRC | 01:51 |
| wyseguy | OerHeks, okay, how can i get 3 monitors working? | 01:52 |
| OerHeks | wyseguy, i don't know :-( | 01:54 |
| wyseguy | OerHeks, that makes no sense, looks like you cant use fglrx anymore, and you have to use the amdgpu driver | 01:56 |
| wyseguy | OerHeks, do you know if by default its using the amdgpu driver? how can i tell? | 01:56 |
| OerHeks | newer cards use AMDgpu, the older ones radeon. | 01:58 |
| wyseguy | OerHeks, okay so since i have a hd 6850, i would use the radeon one right? | 02:00 |
| OerHeks | wyseguy, not sure, i think it is a radeondriver card, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver maybe someone else knows this exact | 02:02 |

| wyseguy | lotuspsychje, funny, since my dell laptop on the docking station can support 3 :p | 02:23 |
| nightowl_ | hello everyone | 02:23 |
| lotuspsychje | wyseguy: both machines have same ubuntu? | 02:23 |
| nightowl_ | can I just post my question here? | 02:24 |
| lotuspsychje | nightowl_: if its ubuntu related, sure | 02:24 |
| wyseguy | lotuspsychje, YES | 02:25 |
| wyseguy | whoops | 02:25 |
| wyseguy | yes | 02:25 |
| wyseguy | lotuspsychje, i think im just hook up my laptop again | 02:26 |
| nightowl_ | YES :) my laptop has an SD card reader built in and I am just trying to access a brand new micro SD card via an SD card adaptor; the micro sd card is automounted as read-only (using ubuntu 14.04) | 02:26 |
| wyseguy | nightowl_, sudo fdisk -l | 02:27 |
| wyseguy | /dev/something... | 02:27 |
| ptah | rm -r / | 02:28 |
| ptah | lol | 02:28 |
| nightowl_ | I can see the sd card as FAT32: /dev/mmcblk0p1 8192 31211519 15601664 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) | 02:28 |
| wyseguy | ptah, thats not nice | 02:28 |
| wyseguy | nightowl_, dont run that command ptah put up | 02:28 |
| ptah | jk | 02:28 |
| wyseguy | i know lol, but some people may do that | 02:28 |
| OerHeks | ptah, you could be removed for such jokes | 02:28 |
| wyseguy | nightowl_, run this: sudo ls -l /dev/mmcblk0p1 | 02:29 |
| ptah | ok | 02:29 |
| ptah | sorry | 02:29 |
| wyseguy | ptah, now my tshirt with the command on it in the closet is a much better approach | 02:29 |
| wyseguy | :p | 02:29 |
| OerHeks | nightowl_, how big is that sdcard in Gb ? | 02:29 |
| OerHeks | some cardreaders go up to 32 gb.. | 02:30 |
| nightowl_ | wyseguy, --> brw-rw---- 1 root disk 179, 1 Jul 28 02:48 /dev/mmcblk0p1 | 02:30 |
| wyseguy | nightowl_, so that means that root is the owner of that card... | 02:31 |
| wyseguy | what is your user name on the computer? | 02:31 |
| ptah | wyseguy, im using a mini dell laptop which i got as a gift alrewady had ubuntu installed | 02:31 |
| ptah | i have ubuntu 8.04 | 02:31 |
| nightowl_ | assume my user name is owl :) | 02:31 |
| wyseguy | ptah, nice, i have a del lattitude e7240, it runs awesome, even in its dock with tripple monitors | 02:31 |
| ptah | i updated firefox but facebook flash doesnt work, but youtube works | 02:31 |
| lotuspsychje | ptah: 8.04 is eol | 02:32 |
| ptah | what do i do? | 02:32 |
| Sebastien | we told you 8.04 is too old | 02:32 |
| Sebastien | you need to upgrade | 02:32 |
| wyseguy | nightowl_, okay run this... sudo usermod -G disk --append owl | 02:32 |
| wyseguy | but change owl to your user name | 02:32 |
| ptah | ok | 02:32 |
| adal | hi | 02:33 |
| ptah | so newer firefox wont fix it? i need newer kernel? | 02:33 |
| lotuspsychje | ptah: you need a newer ubuntu version | 02:33 |
| wyseguy | i feel ptah is trolling | 02:33 |
| wyseguy | :p | 02:33 |
| nightowl_ | wyseguy, done that | 02:34 |
| ptah | no | 02:34 |
| wyseguy | nightowl_, now you should be able to write to the card | 02:34 |
| ptah | im not trolling | 02:34 |
| ptah | i hadnt used linux for long time and now im back on it | 02:34 |
| wyseguy | nightowl_, oh run this.... | 02:35 |
| wyseguy | might have to remount the card | 02:35 |
| wyseguy | nightowl_, sudo mount --options, rw /dev/mmcblk0p1 | 02:35 |
| nightowl_ | wyseguy, unfortunately I still get the read-only file system (ex from sudo mc) | 02:35 |
| wyseguy | whoops | 02:35 |
| wyseguy | wait | 02:35 |
| wyseguy | dont run that | 02:35 |
| wyseguy | let me fix it | 02:35 |
| wyseguy | nightowl_, sudo mount --options,rw /dev/mmcblk0p1 | 02:36 |
| wyseguy | there run that | 02:36 |
| lotuspsychje | ptah: you dont make sense, back on linux and you installed a non-supported old version? | 02:36 |
| wyseguy | or just physically pull the card out and reinsert it nightowl_ | 02:36 |
| ptah | i didnt install old version, it was already there | 02:37 |
| wyseguy | ptah, upgrade yo | 02:37 |
| ptah | you didnt read | 02:37 |
| lotuspsychje | ptah: install a supported version from topic | 02:37 |
| orlock | ptah: Use it to download a new one to install? | 02:37 |
| OerHeks | upgrading from 8.04 with grub1 .. that takes a lot of work, do a fresh install of something lightweight like ubuntu-mate or Lubuntu | 02:38 |
| wyseguy | ptah, ubuntu mate is nice on older hardware | 02:38 |
| wyseguy | really nice | 02:38 |
| ptah | the thing is im not sure if this mini laptop which is not that new can handle the new version | 02:38 |
| nightowl_ | wyseguy, mount: block device /dev/mmcblk0p1 is write-protected, mounting read-only | 02:38 |
| wyseguy | ptah, ubuntu mate should run just fine | 02:39 |
| ptah | its like 2008 or 6 | 02:39 |
| lotuspsychje | ptah: try a liveusb | 02:39 |
| lotuspsychje | see for yourself | 02:39 |
| wyseguy | lotuspsychje, you know why nightowl_ is still getting that message? | 02:39 |
| ptah | oik | 02:39 |
| OerHeks | ptat don't expect it to be a good youtube machine :-D .. old netbooks are just doorstoppers | 02:39 |
| ptah | i know it is slow and delays | 02:40 |
| wyseguy | nm, nightowl_ pull the card out and reinsert it | 02:40 |
| ptah | but im just here fror fun | 02:40 |
| nightowl_ | wyseguy, did that, no change, restarted the whole system with card inserted, still no change | 02:40 |
| ptah | youtube works but instagram aned facebioik vidsw dont | 02:41 |
| nightowl_ | wyseguy, I checked the SD card adaptor, it is not locked :) | 02:41 |
| wyseguy_ | that was weird | 02:41 |
| lotuspsychje | ptah: install a supported version first, then we can help you | 02:41 |
| wyseguy_ | nightowl_, did that work? | 02:41 |
| ptah | lotuspsychje, once i do that i dont need help lol | 02:42 |
| ptah | supported then its ok | 02:42 |
| nightowl_ | wyseguy, nope, it did not :( | 02:42 |
| lotuspsychje | ptah: then your problem is gone and you dont need to talk here anymore for support | 02:43 |
| ptah | ok | 02:43 |
| ptah | im here to learn things that i dont know | 02:43 |
| lotuspsychje | ptah: only if you install a supported version | 02:43 |
| owen1 | i installed flashplugin-installer and restarted chromium. going to chrome://flash/ tells me that flash plugin is not installed. any ideas? | 02:44 |
| lotuspsychje | owen1: try chromium + pepperflash | 02:44 |
| nightowl_ | wyseguy, however, I could write to the same sd card from a Windows OS :( | 02:45 |
| lotuspsychje | nightowl_: did you try gparted on your sd yet? | 02:45 |
| nightowl_ | lotuspsychje, yes and it says the disk is in read only mode | 02:46 |
| lotuspsychje | nightowl_: you cant format from there? | 02:46 |
| ptah | lotuspsychje, is ubuntu-offtopic a dead channel or active? | 02:46 |
| lotuspsychje | !ot | ptah | 02:46 |

| owen1 | lotuspsychje: how do i install pepperflash? apt-get? btw, i am on 15.10 | 02:46 |
| nightowl_ | lotuspsychje, nope, because gparted does not let me to; the sd card has an exclamation mark with the note "Unable to open /dev/mmcblk0 read-write (Read-only file system). /dev/mmcblk0 has been opened read-only." | 02:47 |

| ptah | ok | 02:49 |
| lotuspsychje | nightowl_: what brand is your sd card? could be RMA broken | 02:50 |
| ptah | OerHeks, im too lazy now lol | 02:50 |
| nightowl_ | it is a Kingston, 16 GB (however, windows 10 was ok with it, on another machine) | 02:51 |

| wyseguy_ | and you reinstalled the card? | 02:56 |
| nightowl_ | lotuspsychje, what does RMA mean? | 02:56 |

| Optiprism | Hi, how do I get qt4 on 16.04 ? I need it for a project but 16.04 has 5.5.1 installed | 03:00 |
| Optiprism | Any ideas how I would get the old version? | 03:00 |
| nightowl_ | wyseguy, still, I don't get it, a brand new sd card and it only mounts as read-only? :( | 03:00 |
| lotuspsychje | Optiprism: its not recommended to mix package versions | 03:01 |
| House | am i just misremembering, but didn't `tcpdump` used to always show local host on the left, remote host on right, and in/out traffic direction with >/< ?? | 03:02 |
| nightowl_ | lotuspsychje, would you have any other suggestions please? :) | 03:02 |
| lotuspsychje | nightowl_: could try testing another ubuntu/kernel version as a test perhaps | 03:03 |
| nightowl_ | lotuspsychje, u mean an older one would be ok too? | 03:03 |
| Optiprism | louspsychje yes but I do need it to compile something | 03:04 |
| lotuspsychje | nightowl_: wich one are you on right now? | 03:04 |
| nightowl_ | lotuspsychje, 14.04 | 03:04 |
| lotuspsychje | nightowl_: perhaps try 16.04 as test? | 03:04 |
| nightowl_ | lotuspsychje, I see, I will do that then and get back here later | 03:05 |
| lotuspsychje | nightowl_: perhaps also start a !bug for your issue? | 03:05 |
| OerHeks | Optiprism, install 12.04 if you *need* to compile something that is EOL http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/qt4-dev-tools | 03:05 |
| Optiprism | 12.04 ? Doesn't 14.04 also have qt4 ? | 03:06 |
| nightowl_ | lotuspsychje, ok, I might do that as well, once it clarifies as a bug :) (if I am able to write to the card from other linuxes or ubuntu versions) | 03:06 |
| nightowl_ | lotuspsychje & wyseguy, many thanks for assistance | 03:06 |
| Optiprism | Hm, is there a way to run different packages in the same ubuntu? | 03:08 |
| Optiprism | What about docker? | 03:08 |
| lotuspsychje | !pinning | Optiprism at your own risk | 03:08 |
| ubottu | Optiprism at your own risk: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 03:08 |
| Optiprism | hm interesting | 03:09 |
| lotuspsychje | Optiprism: the more clean way would be using qt version from your current ubuntu version, if you have an issue !bug it | 03:09 |

| datahead8888 | I'm installing a large number of updates for Ubuntu that I put off. For the one about the grub file, I had changed the file, so I had told it to show a side by side comparison, which never showed. Now it just skipped the file completely. What is the best advisable action to take now? | 04:04 |
| rypervenche | Kyoku: mpv, VLC might these days. Not sure. | 04:04 |
| rypervenche | datahead8888: Why did you manually edit your grub.cfg? | 04:04 |
| rypervenche | datahead8888: Or was this for /etc/default/grub? | 04:05 |
| datahead8888 | I had changed it to boot initially without the desktop when I was trying to run a program that used tons of RAM a while back | 04:05 |
| === glytch1 is now known as glytched | ||
| datahead8888 | I'd like to revert this anyways, though I will need to make sure I pull the correct file for my updates | 04:05 |
| datahead8888 | I do, however, have dual boot set up so that I can boot between Windows and Ubuntu | 04:05 |
| kiwiman | i want to upload a file in here https://goo.gl/dOx9Mr .. but dont know how.. can somone tell me | 04:06 |
| rypervenche | kiwiman: That is not Ubuntu-related. | 04:08 |
| datahead8888 | rypervenche, I think it was /etc/default/grub because it shows it was modified the summer of 2015 when I did some work with that program | 04:08 |
| rypervenche | datahead8888: Which file did you update and which was overwritten? | 04:08 |
| datahead8888 | Though I can't remember what I changed anymore | 04:08 |
| rypervenche | datahead8888: So you're trying to find a backup of it? | 04:08 |
| datahead8888 | I think it skipped this file when I told it to view a comparison during the Ubuntu updates | 04:09 |
| kiwiman | rypervenche: yes it is for ubuntu..... i have a file tobe uploaded and this guy told me to use this https://goo.gl/dOx9Mr | 04:09 |
| datahead8888 | Yeah, I think I set: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text" in the file | 04:10 |
| swift110-phone | lol datahead is here | 04:10 |
| rypervenche | datahead8888: Ah, yeah, something like that will do it. | 04:10 |

| datahead8888 | Oh, hello, sw | 04:11 |
| datahead8888 | *** swift110-phone | 04:11 |
| datahead8888 | rypervenche, was is the best way to make sure I have an update to date version for the updates I just pulled? | 04:11 |
| haruki | so... is there any way to use terminal remotely from android? | 04:12 |
| datahead8888 | I'm fine with reverting my own changes to the file, as long as I don't lose my dual boot menu for Windows/Ubuntu at all | 04:12 |
| rypervenche | haruki: Sure. You just need an SSH client. | 04:12 |
| datahead8888 | Though I'm not seeing how the grub file would have anything to do with a dual boot | 04:13 |
| kiwiman | how do i hibernate my Ubuntu? | 04:13 |
| rypervenche | datahead8888: I don't quite understand your question about the up-to-date bit. | 04:13 |

| rosgani | haruki, there is Juice SSH | 04:14 |
| datahead8888 | I ran the pending updates from the Update Manager in the Unity desktop system, and it started working through them. It then told me there was a change needed to the grub file but that I had other changes to it. It asked if I wanted to take the updated version, retain my version, or see a comparison. | 04:14 |
| kiwiman | "how do i hibernate my fucking ubuntu bullshit" | 04:14 |
| kiwiman | Linux mint is so much better than this bullshit ubuntu | 04:15 |

| kiwiman | i will kill ur mom and chill her | 04:15 |
| Freedom777 | lol | 04:15 |
| datahead8888 | I figured that when I chose the comparison and tried to use forward to continue, it probably just omitted the changes from the update | 04:15 |

| datahead8888 | Well, I need to upgrade from Ubuntu 12 to 14 anyways, so I'll probably end up with a new grub file anyways | 04:18 |
| R3D2E | im trying to setup vsftpd | 04:19 |
| Mojtaba | Hello, I have ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS and I am trying to upgrade to 16.04.1 LTs, but it does not allow me. | 04:21 |
| WhiteNight | hello all, is there an app for Ubuntu that I can use to remotely connect to my Android phone and perform all functions? (like via Bluetooth or over Wifi), thanks | 04:21 |
| Mojtaba | I changed the update version to any newer version, and it offers me 15.10 | 04:22 |
| CaffeineAddict | I setup a sftp only account per tut here: | 04:22 |
| CaffeineAddict | https://solderintheveins.co.uk/2011/03/ubuntu-sftp-only-account-how-to/ | 04:22 |
| rosgani | WhiteNight what function do you want to cnnet? | 04:22 |
| CaffeineAddict | however I am trying to simlink stuff from the /var/www dir into the users home dir so they have access | 04:22 |
| CaffeineAddict | the simlinks show up ... but if you sftp in as that user it gives an error when attempting to get in the dir | 04:23 |
| WhiteNight | rosgani, Voice Calls mainly, for text I know there are stuffs like Mighty Text, for whatsApp I use Whatsie, for Viber, I use the Viber app | 04:23 |
| Bashing-om | ltsupgrade | Mojtaba | 04:23 |
| CaffeineAddict | i gave the limmited access users the group www-data | 04:23 |
| Bashing-om | !ltsupgrade | Mojtaba | 04:23 |
| ubottu | Mojtaba: The automatic LTS upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 was scheduled when 16.04.1 LTS was released on July 21st, but has been postponed for one week due to final bug testing. | 04:23 |
| rosgani | WhiteNight I see | 04:23 |
| WhiteNight | Mojtaba, Bashing-om ... I think one can't directly go from 14.04 to 16.04, you have to do one major release ver to another in sequence, right? | 04:24 |
| WhiteNight | !ltsupgrade | 04:24 |
| ubottu | The automatic LTS upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 was scheduled when 16.04.1 LTS was released on July 21st, but has been postponed for one week due to final bug testing. | 04:24 |
| Mojtaba | Bashing-om: Now is Jul 28 | 04:24 |
| R3D2E | anyone good with vsftpd | 04:24 |
| WhiteNight | R3D2E, put your question, if anyone knows and/or is available, you will hear from them | 04:25 |
| Bashing-om | Mojtaba: I have seen no indication to this time that the release upgrade path has been enabled . | 04:25 |
| R3D2E | ok cool thanks | 04:25 |
| R3D2E | how do i ssh in vsftp? | 04:26 |
| CaffeineAddict | using ChrootDirectory %h in /etc/ssh/sshd_config ... how do i give a user access to files outside of this chroot | 04:26 |
| WhiteNight | R3D2E, vsftp is for FTP protocol (file transfers using port 21 and 20 (data) | 04:26 |
| WhiteNight | SSH (port 22) is for secure login and secure file transfer | 04:26 |
| WhiteNight | both are different things, whats your requirement/ | 04:26 |
| WhiteNight | ? | 04:26 |
| R3D2E | i have it setup on an old computer im trying to access it from my laptop it wont let me | 04:28 |
| Bashing-om | WhiteNight: No .. see ' cat /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades '.. with the 1st point release LTS-LTS is enabled . | 04:28 |
| WhiteNight | you need to use an FTP client (use the ftp command line) or a FTP client on Windows such as FileZilla | 04:29 |
| WhiteNight | Bashing-om, thanks | 04:29 |
| R3D2E | im trying to use via CLI | 04:29 |
| Bashing-om | WhiteNight: :) .. We are all on this learning curve . | 04:30 |
| WhiteNight | Bashing-om, yeah with Unix, it's just like that :) | 04:30 |
| WhiteNight | R3D2E, can you share a screenshot? use pastebin or imgur | 04:31 |
| tatertots | this availability of a 14.04 > 16.04 upgrade, will it be available on 14.10 also? | 04:31 |
| WhiteNight | Bashing-om, I am sure diff people have diff styles and choices, I personally keep /data separate and re-install the entire OS, packages and maintain a script to do my custom configs. Its faster, bug free and more efficient for me (just a personal choice though) | 04:32 |
| Bashing-om | WhiteNight: 3 separate backups of my personal data .. and a change log of all changes I have made . | 04:35 |
| WhiteNight | Bashing-om, likewise ;-) | 04:36 |
| rypervenche | R3D2E: Do you have a specific need to be using FTP and not SFTP? | 04:36 |
| WhiteNight | I am a bit more paranoid actually, I sync everything once a month to a last resort hard drive and keep it in the locker of the bank! lol | 04:36 |
| WhiteNight | (LUKS encrypted of course) | 04:37 |
| WhiteNight | rypervenche, R3D2E Correct. The first and most basic service that would run on any Linux machine is SSH, so why not use it via a Windows client like WinSCP :) | 04:37 |
| WhiteNight | tx rypervenche | 04:38 |
| rypervenche | WhiteNight: What cipher do you use on it? :P | 04:41 |
| R3D2E | i wanted to get more familiar with doing it via CL | 04:43 |
| === janis is now known as dorami-doraemon | ||
| WhiteNight | rypervenche, ssshhhhhhhhh | 04:46 |
| rypervenche | R3D2E: Then you can use sftp instead of ftp. You don't need to do anything, just make sure that SSH works on the machine. | 04:47 |
| R3D2E | ok cool thanks | 04:47 |

| IamTheBoss | Ethernet Network() | 05:09 |

| IamTheBoss | yes that is fine but why it is showing that message | 05:10 |
| IamTheBoss | i have ubuntu 14.04 also it doesnt show this type of message whereas it shows in 16.04 | 05:11 |
| elky | IamTheBoss: so that you know it's not, i assume | 05:12 |
| IamTheBoss | so its expected behaviour in 16.04? | 05:13 |
| elky | IamTheBoss: i don't know enough to answer that, but it seems to have been expected behaviour for a while, judging by http://askubuntu.com/a/71205 | 05:14 |

| shafox | Some of the service in my ubuntu box gets stop abruptly. Anywhere I can look for the info when it has stopped and what made it stopped?? | 05:34 |
| tigefa | shafox: sudo systemctl status myservice | 05:36 |
| ubntuus | am using ubuntu 16.04.1, just today i noticed that it is showing some folders in Home which it didn't use to before | 05:36 |
| ubntuus | even some folders relating to old installations | 05:36 |
| ubntuus | like games and applications, | 05:37 |
| ubntuus | has something changed with ubuntu? | 05:37 |
| shafox | tigefa: has it been changed from systemctl to sysctl ? | 05:37 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: they start with a '.' ? | 05:38 |
| ubntuus | yes | 05:38 |
| dax | shafox: no, they're different commands | 05:38 |
| shafox | dax as it says sudo: systemctl: command not found | 05:39 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: those are hidden files/folders that usualy don't show, if you're in a GUI file explorer try Ctrl+H to not show them | 05:39 |
| dax | shafox: which version of Ubuntu? | 05:39 |
| shafox | dax: 14.04 | 05:39 |
| ubntuus | Grimsf: that worked :) | 05:39 |
| dax | shafox: uses upstart, not systemd, so no systemctl. you'll need advice from someone who knows about upstart (i don't) | 05:40 |
| ubntuus | Grimsf: just a query, if i "purge temporary files" from settings why don't they delete those old/obsolete files? | 05:40 |
| shafox | dax sysctl is from the new version or the old ones ? | 05:40 |
| ubntuus | like old installations and things that are no longer in use | 05:40 |
| dax | shafox: sysctl is completely unrelated | 05:40 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: because those anre't 'temporary', temporary files usualy go to the /tmp where they automatically get removed on reboot | 05:41 |
| ubntuus | ok,understood | 05:41 |
| shafox | dax ah ok. | 05:41 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: the 'hidden' files/folders contain settings and preferences | 05:42 |
| ubntuus | Grimsf: so would it be ok for me to delete some obsolete files? like few games and apps data which were already uninstalled during earlier ubuntu versions? | 05:43 |
| sponix | Anyone else having Transmission CPU/Mem race when trying to create a new torrent from a Source Directory ? | 05:44 |
| OerHeks | sponix, if it does not make your system not responsible, it is fine | 05:45 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: sure, these files are recreated (if missing) by the application when you run it, at worst you will loose your settings for the specific apps, but nothing critical unless there are some secret/private/public keys (ie .gpg / .ssh / etc...) you haven't backed up | 05:46 |
| OerHeks | it should soon drop to low levels | 05:46 |
| ubntuus | Grimsf: ok,thanks :) | 05:46 |
| pagios | anyone using i3 wm? | 05:46 |
| shafox | dax: so if i follow what upstart has to say then i would probably find what i am looking for ? | 05:46 |
| sponix | OerHeks: It does, when it runs through all 32G of Ram.. | 05:46 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: for those you know you don't need, you can just delete them, those you don't better make backups before, you never know ;) | 05:48 |
| dalto | ubntuus: only just starting reading back a bit but thought I'd mention Synaptic Package Manager will also clean a lot of leftovers for you - I don't currently have junk but I believe the option is Not installed (removeable) within the Status option - remove them | 05:49 |
| dalto | (maybe not directly related to other advice you are getting .. but...) | 05:50 |
| mike-zal | can someone help me with bumblebee? cannot get it run, although I tried all solutions and fixes. bumblbee conf seems to be correct but I still get: primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) | 05:50 |
| OerHeks | mike-zal, weren't you here before with the same question ? | 05:50 |
| OerHeks | mike-zal, bumblebeee is old, prime is current | 05:50 |
| mike-zal | yes, never solved it. and bumblebee should work on 16.04 from what I saw on the net | 05:51 |
| ubntuus | Grimsf: yeah,right.. would only delete things that I know of, would leave everything else as it is :) | 05:51 |
| mike-zal | there is even bumblebee 4 version coming | 05:51 |
| ubntuus | dalto: thanks for the tip | 05:51 |
| dalto | my pleasure | 05:51 |
| mike-zal | although some may think it's depracated but there is no official info about it and there are sites telling how to install bumblebee on 16.04 | 05:51 |
| OerHeks | mike-zal, yeah, no, ubuntu uses prime | 05:52 |
| mike-zal | OerHeks, prime seems to be more primitive then bumblebee at the moment. bumblebee can run any program with nvidia, prime just uses nvidia for the whole destop witch makes it less effective and power consuming | 05:53 |
| ubntuus | Grimsf: ctrl+h is working temporarily for me .. whenever i close and reopen file-manager again they are all visible again | 05:53 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: hum, try going into the file manager's settings see if there is a 'show hidden' box that's ticked somewhere and untick, strange that it defaults to that | 05:55 |
| mike-zal | OerHeks, there are also some tutorials how to run primus and bumblebee at the same time in 16.04 (not a stable solution thou) so basically there is no reason why bumblebee couldn't work in latest ubuntu | 05:55 |
| mike-zal | at least I never found any official info that it doesn't. just one commentary in one site that it's deprecated, but others still claim to make it work. | 05:56 |
| OerHeks | mike-zal, so use that ( unknown and probably unofficial) tutorial ? | 05:56 |
| mike-zal | I don't want to run bot. I still try to use bumblebee first and only when I will be at the end, will try primus. but I still hope that I can fix this bumblebee somehow. | 05:57 |
| OerHeks | i cannot get it to work <> it works better , makes no sense | 05:57 |
| mike-zal | that is why I'm looking for somone who is familiar in that matter | 05:57 |
| mike-zal | also, I'm not sure about nvidia versions. I tried once to install newer one instead 304 and got into login loop in lightdm | 05:58 |
| ubntuus | Grimsf: thanks again, that worked :) | 05:58 |
| mike-zal | but probably that was my fault because I didn't purged 304 before installing 364 ;P | 05:58 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: glad I could help. | 05:59 |
| mike-zal | been trying to find info about different nvidia driver versions and... there are some answers but they make no sense for me. bunch of technical works but no clear answer: can I run any nvidia version or just only specific one for my nvidia car? | 06:00 |
| mike-zal | card* | 06:00 |
| OerHeks | mike-zal, remove that ubuntu-driver ppa and try again? | 06:00 |
| ubntuus | what does "toggle maximization state" do? | 06:01 |
| mike-zal | OerHeks, as to this tutorial, I saw it on askubuntu and some other site. but things it recomends are too deeply diging into system, it's a complex process and one small mistake and system won't be bootable so I don't intend to use that (I mean tutrial with bumblebee and primus) | 06:01 |
| mike-zal | however steps to install bumblebee and primus are normal, as on every site I've seen. | 06:02 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: a bit more context with your question would be great, but I'm gessing it's to do with the window manager and how the window maximizes (ie. takes all available screen space) | 06:03 |
| mike-zal | OerHeks, I never added any ppa for nvidia. system installed it automatically. I just used general command to install bumblebee and it seemed to be in repos already. and it pulled 304 nvidia, but that's normal from what I saw. ubuntu always does that when used automatic choice.. | 06:03 |
| mike-zal | OerHeks, I just used: sudo apt-get install bumblebee bumblebee-nvidia primus linux-headers-generic | 06:04 |
| ubntuus | Grimsf: I saw "toggle maximization state" under keyboard shortcuts. alt+ctrl+f5 . was just wondering what it does . so when i tried this i got a no gui screen | 06:04 |
| mike-zal | and then edited /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf for matching with nvidia-304 | 06:04 |
| OerHeks | mike-zal, i have no clue what tutorial you talk about, nor seen it on 'every site'. we don't support unofficial guides. | 06:05 |
| mike-zal | OerHeks, you just asked, I answered. I don't intend to use it so let's forget about this questionable tutorial. | 06:05 |
| OerHeks | and btw, the one in 16.04 is 361, 364 is in the driver ppa | 06:06 |
| OerHeks | no, i didn't ask about it, you push it. | 06:06 |
| Grimsf | ubntuus: strange they call it like that. but you got you're answer then, from memory ctrl+alt+f7 should get you back to gui [...]+F1 tp +F6 should be text terminals. | 06:08 |
| mike-zal | in previous system installation I also installed bublebee like shown above and then added ppa for the newest nvidia and installed it which resulted in login loop. that's old news. system is reinstalled freshly. installed bumblebee again in classical way and still it doesn't work and I'm not so quick to install any nvidia driver manually, although I suspect what was my failing last time. | 06:08 |
| ConsoleFx | peeps, I just installed nvidia drivers on my ubuntu box (used additional drivers window) and it got installed successfully. But even after successful reboot I dont see the resolution/visual experience changes. Can anyone please help me what might be wrong here? | 06:10 |
| cfhowlett | ConsoleFx, in my case, I must switch manually from intel to nvidia to see the improvements | 06:11 |
| cfhowlett | see your system settings for the "Nvidia" command console | 06:11 |
| mike-zal | OerHeks, anyway, will keep asking for bumblebee help for some time and maybe someone will know more about it. if I loose my patience I will switch to prime. | 06:11 |

| ubntuus | not that it matters a lot perhaps but was just trying out :) | 06:12 |

| tatertots | ah this is because encrypted private was not selected during ubuntu installation | 07:47 |
| tatertots | kinda freaked me out at first when i noticed all users can read all other users files | 07:48 |
| apollo13 | any reason why I would get no journal for a user with journalctl --user on ubuntu 16.04? | 07:52 |
| cfhowlett | tatertots, settings those users to private directory is not the same as encryption ... but it should be done IMO | 07:52 |
| tatertots | I guess i could do encrypted private now to prevent users from viewing other users data going forward. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome | 07:55 |

| guzzlefry | Is there a list of supported devices for 16.04? I'm wondering if it will work with http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/nuc/nuc-kit-nuc6i5syk.html | 08:57 |
| cfhowlett | ubuntu and linux in generally usually get along fine with intel devices, guzzlefry. pro-tip: make an ubuntu USB, (I carry a credit card USB in my wallet and have a another on a lanyard around my neck everyday). Go to your local Fry's or other electronic toy store and boot the puppy up! Admittedly a bit trick to do at the Apple Store but ... by no means impossible. | 09:00 |
| llldino | There isn't really a list per-se. You just need to make sure that drivers are available for all the hardware that you'd like to use. It seems to me that your Intel NUC would work fine with Ubuntu 16.04 | 09:00 |
| OerHeks | !hcl | 09:00 |
| ubottu | For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 09:00 |
| OerHeks | guzzlefry, i think it will work, try the live iso | 09:00 |
| llldino | Generally Ubuntu works with mostly everything unless the device is very new, very old or very exotic | 09:00 |
| Archeus | hello | 09:08 |
| Archeus | i need help | 09:08 |

| Archeus | does anyone know about keyloggers or anything like them ? | 09:08 |
| Andrzej | what exactly you need to know? | 09:08 |
| haruki | hi | 09:08 |
| cfhowlett | Archeus, "does anyone ..." is a huge waste of space. state YOUR issues and details. | 09:09 |
| Archeus | idk how | 09:09 |
| Archeus | but someone knows whts happening on this PC | 09:09 |
| haruki | anyone, is there a resource to learn about SSH? | 09:09 |
| cfhowlett | !ssh | haruki | 09:09 |
| ubottu | haruki: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for its homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 09:09 |
| Archeus | i want to remove tht | 09:09 |
| haruki | free resource, I mean. | 09:09 |
| Archeus | every bit of info is sent to his mobile as a text msg | 09:09 |
| llldino | haruki, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH | 09:09 |
| cfhowlett | haruki, man ssh would do it too | 09:09 |
| Archeus | i hve searched for something personal | 09:10 |
| k1l | Archeus: what makes you sure there is a keylogger? | 09:10 |
| Archeus | nd i dont want anyone to know about it | 09:10 |
| cfhowlett | Archeus, if true: reinstall ubuntu and lock it down properly | 09:10 |
| Archeus | cause thts wht keylogger do | 09:10 |
| Archeus | i cant reinstall it | 09:10 |
| Archeus | there are many things on this | 09:10 |
| Archeus | plus tht person is my dad | 09:10 |
| cfhowlett | Archeus, then it's not your computer and we will not help you hack | 09:10 |
| Archeus | man | 09:10 |
| Archeus | its mine | 09:11 |
| cfhowlett | Archeus, take it up with Dad. | 09:11 |
| k1l | Archeus: is it a keylogger? or did you just use a webbrowser or webpage which syncs the data with their account? | 09:11 |
| Archeus | it might be keylogger | 09:11 |
| k1l | Archeus: so you dont know | 09:11 |
| Archeus | cause he knows when this laptop was opened | 09:11 |
| cfhowlett | family issue, Archeus. NOT an ubuntu issue. | 09:11 |
| Archeus | man | 09:11 |
| Archeus | dude | 09:11 |
| Archeus | tke this | 09:11 |
| k1l | Archeus: so if you know its a keylogger (knowing, not guessing) there is no way besides reinstall the OS. | 09:12 |
| Archeus | would u like it if ur dad knows everthing u hve searched on laptop | 09:12 |
| cfhowlett | Archeus, we will not be helping you violate your Dad's trust. Think on that before you text | 09:12 |
| Archeus | dude | 09:12 |
| k1l | Archeus: but i suspect its just a matter of webbrowser sync or webbrowser history | 09:12 |
| Archeus | he told me when i started my laptop | 09:12 |
| Andrzej | Archeus: haha, if he knows that laptop was turned on it's probably not keylogger, only logs that he is checking over ssh | 09:12 |
| Archeus | he lives 3 hrs from my place | 09:13 |
| Archeus | in another city | 09:13 |
| cfhowlett | Archeus, so? | 09:13 |
| Archeus | he gets text msg on mobile or something like tht | 09:13 |
| k1l | Archeus: then save your important data to a backup and make a clean reinstall. there is nothing else we can do | 09:13 |
| Archeus | no other way to stop him from checking everything ? | 09:14 |
| Andrzej | Archeus: XD, it's entertaining :) | 09:14 |
| haruki | so... archeus's pc is accessed by his/her dad? | 09:14 |
| Archeus | im a bot | 09:14 |
| Archeus | -_- | 09:14 |
| Andrzej | he can monitor in and out traffic | 09:14 |
| OerHeks | Archeus, so you *think* there is a keylogger, cannot do a fresh install, what do you want us to do? | 09:14 |
| Archeus | boy | 09:14 |
| cfhowlett | Archeus, you don't have the facts, you're guessing too much and you want us to help you bypass your father's restriction. I'm beginning to see why your old man does not trust you | 09:14 |
| OerHeks | ..boy | 09:14 |
| Archeus | ahhhh | 09:14 |
| Archeus | one must give another one some privacy | 09:14 |
| Andrzej | Archeus how old are you? | 09:15 |
| k1l | Archeus: we told you what to do to get a clean ubuntu system. | 09:15 |
| Archeus | 16 | 09:15 |
| cfhowlett | Archeus, you're a bot or you're an untrustworthy idiot. you're also ignored on my stream. | 09:15 |
| haruki | so, I'm a newbie. if he dual boot his with another linux distro, will his dad know? | 09:15 |
| Archeus | no | 09:15 |
| Archeus | i dont thnk so | 09:15 |
| cfhowlett | haruki, unlikely | 09:15 |
| OerHeks | he is a responsible parent, good job | 09:15 |
| Andrzej | technically he can boot from USB | 09:15 |
| Andrzej | and work on system from USB | 09:15 |
| cfhowlett | quite easily too, Andrzej | 09:15 |
| Archeus | lol | 09:16 |
| Archeus | ppl | 09:16 |
| Andrzej | it will be clean install and nothing will be logged on main system | 09:16 |
| Archeus | u dont get the point | 09:16 |
| k1l | Archeus: your question was answered now several times. do you have another issue? | 09:16 |
| haruki | so you felt it to be too restrictive? | 09:16 |
| Archeus | yes | 09:16 |
| Andrzej | USB drive or even SD card | 09:16 |
| Archeus | is there any other way to know how he does tht and remove tht thing without reinstalling my OS ? | 09:17 |
| Andrzej | or, replace hard drive, that would I would do :) | 09:17 |
| Ben64 | Archeus: no | 09:17 |
| haruki | so... what he want to know is whether there is any computer that remotely accessed his? | 09:17 |
| k1l | Archeus: no. because one cant know what he used and if there is no secret files left which might reinstall such thing again. so only way is to reinstall if that is a keylogger issue | 09:18 |
| cfhowlett | haruki, let's focus on your own issues please. Have you any? | 09:18 |
| Ascavasaion | If I decide to pop a 32GB usb memory stick into my Raspbery Pi as a 'hard disk' to store MP3s, would it be beneficial speed/ease/etc to format it to ext4 and lose ability to use it in under other OS's, or should I format it FAT32 and keep it that way? | 09:18 |
| Andrzej | Ben64: there is, kind of, he can monitor in and out traffic, basically sniffing and hope he will be lucky and catch outgoing messages | 09:18 |
| Andrzej | is they are not encrypted* | 09:18 |
| Archeus | hmm | 09:18 |
| Archeus | tht can be done | 09:18 |
| cfhowlett | Ascavasaion, better asked in a pi channel | 09:18 |
| haruki | cfhowlett: still reading the resources ubottu sent me? | 09:18 |
| llldino | Ascavasaion, Ext4 would be much faster than Fat32. I believe you can get drivers for Windows so that it can read Ext4 partitions | 09:18 |
| Ascavasaion | cfhowlett: *nods* | 09:19 |
| Ascavasaion | llldino: thank you. | 09:19 |
| Archeus | Andrzej : how to monitor traffic ? | 09:19 |
| ducasse | Archeus: did you pay for this computer? | 09:19 |
| Archeus | well my parents bought me this | 09:19 |
| ducasse | Archeus: so _they_ paid. and you're 16. play by their rules, then. | 09:20 |
| Archeus | i will | 09:20 |
| Archeus | but now | 09:20 |
| Archeus | i dont want them to know wht i hve surfed today | 09:20 |
| ducasse | probably too late. | 09:21 |
| llldino | Archeus, Regardless, even if you removed the ability for your dad to view your activities, you don't think he would know you did that? If I was dad, I would take the computer back | 09:21 |
| Archeus | i dont mind tht | 09:21 |
| haruki | wireshark? | 09:21 |
| Archeus | let him tke it | 09:21 |
| OerHeks | guys, he is answered. | 09:21 |
| Archeus | ah | 09:21 |
| Archeus | i will go then | 09:21 |
| Archeus | u probably see my as a child | 09:21 |
| Archeus | bye ppl | 09:21 |
| Archeus | farewell | 09:21 |
| Andrzej | Archeus: ech please go and read documentation, there is plenty, I don't believe you will be able to wrap your head around this without actual knowledge about how networking and system in general works. If you are smart enough to do it on your own then kudos, otherwise I will not help you. The easiest way of going around restrictions would be using system from external bootable device like Pendrive or SD card, sniffing network traffic is just | 09:22 |
| Andrzej | begining, even if you will find something then you would have to block or remove it | 09:22 |
| Andrzej | and if you will do it, supervisor (your dad) will notice it straight away, he seems to be a guy that knows what he is doing | 09:22 |
| haruki | bye | 09:22 |
| Ben64 | he's gone | 09:22 |

| k1l | max_ubuntu: could be an blocking network issue | 09:41 |
| llldino | max_ubuntu, You're at work now? Your admin might be blocking your apt-get update | 09:42 |
| max_ubuntu | llldino: yes on the work computer on vpn. | 09:43 |
| max_ubuntu | is apt-get traffic over http or another protocol? | 09:43 |

| haruki | so... as desktop user, I want to know what renotely accessing my pc entailed. so, first, can I access my ubuntu desktop remotely? | 09:47 |
| max_ubuntu | ah, nevermind, I'm sure it's a proxy issue. Now even firefox is saying that the firewall needs credentials and otherwise it's refusing connections. | 09:47 |
| max_ubuntu | sure my windows domain pass might work, but then it might get someone pissed of that I'm using firefox on linux in a VM. | 09:48 |

| Aliekezhi | hi, having a very weird issue with Ubuntu 14.04 : most of the repository lines are ignored when updating, it cannot contact some of it. Using the default repositories, didn't change anything manually in /etc/apt/sources.list...Everything else seems to be fine...Any ideas ? | 10:03 |

| ivo34 | could I use it to move my ubuntu to another disk? | 10:27 |

| ivo34 | I have ubuntu on an old maxtor 160 gb...and I bought an hitachi 2 tera | 10:28 |
| OerHeks | ivo34, sure, you can move from ext disk to lvm. but you need to adjust some settings in your grub, perhaps reinstalling grub is the quickest and safest way | 10:28 |
| ivo34 | I d like to move ubuntu to the new disk | 10:28 |

| ivo34 | and only then get dirty | 10:34 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: Well, get yer data moved first...reckon that's your priority right now...eh... | 10:34 |
| ivo34 | but I see that switching hdd won't be easy neither | 10:34 |

| YankDownUnder | ivo34: ducasse just gave you the actual steps...follow the steps. | 10:36 |
| ivo34 | hmmm | 10:36 |
| ivo34 | partition... okay...format okay rsync across... I wonder what does that mean | 10:37 |
| ducasse | ivo34: it's not difficult, but it takes time and effort. that's why i said reinstall might be better. | 10:38 |
| ducasse | ivo34: rsync = copy data | 10:38 |
| ivo34 | oh | 10:38 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: Reinstall, rsync, dd - take your pick...or, cheat and use Clonezilla...you've got a few options...and then some... | 10:38 |
| ivo34 | youre suggesting not migrating but copying and then deleting the original arent you? | 10:38 |
| ivo34 | clonezilla? | 10:39 |
| ivo34 | a new japanesse monster? | 10:39 |
| YankDownUnder | Yersh. | 10:39 |
| YankDownUnder | "Clonezilla" is for those that aren't happy with sitting at the console with console commands..."point'n'click"-ish stuff... | 10:40 |
| kisb | the better option it is | 10:42 |
| ivo34 | clonezilla got it...time to study | 10:43 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: http://clonezilla.org/ | 10:44 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: Not much to study, really...however, if you like to read the fine print, please, by all means, do... | 10:44 |
| ivo34 | I only wonder... | 10:45 |
| ivo34 | would I be able to clone a running os? | 10:45 |
| ivo34 | I mean the actual clonezilla's host | 10:46 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: Um...short answer or long answer? | 10:46 |
| ivo34 | long | 10:46 |
| YankDownUnder | You run it from a USB...ahem... | 10:47 |
| ivo34 | hmm | 10:47 |
| ivo34 | I only have a 15Gb usb | 10:47 |
| ducasse | ivo34: so what? you clone disk -> disk | 10:48 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: You're not doing anything on the USB with the exception of running Clonezilla from the USB...the data gets cloned directly from the old drive to the new drive...no stopping in between, do not pass go, do not go directly to jail...etc etc etc... | 10:48 |
| ivo34 | I see | 10:48 |
| ivo34 | only a pivot point | 10:48 |
| ivo34 | cool | 10:49 |
| ivo34 | what if I want to set different partitions for system and /home in the cloned system? | 10:50 |
| ivo34 | not able i guess | 10:50 |
| ivo34 | I should reinstall then..shouldn't I? | 10:50 |
| YankDownUnder | On that same token, using a "liveUSB" with whatever version of linux, and using "dd" from the console is basically the same thing - without all that "point'n'click" schmutz... | 10:50 |
| ducasse | ivo34: fix that later, or reinstall. | 10:50 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: THAT is something you have to chew over in your own head... | 10:50 |
| OerHeks | i would put the 2tb hdd in the 1st sata port, do a fresh install, and copy data after that | 10:50 |
| OerHeks | and get a case for that 160 gb for external backup drive | 10:51 |
| YankDownUnder | *Bingo* for the best answer...you get a slice of cheesecake for that... | 10:51 |
| ivo34 | oh wait wait I think I already have separate /home partition but it is running out of space...I guess clonezilla will fix this...as I will prepare wider partitions in the new disk beforehand.. | 10:52 |
| YankDownUnder | "wider partitions" - hmm...have to try to use that in a sentence tomorrow... | 10:54 |
| OerHeks | what makes you think clonezilla fixes this? | 10:54 |
| ivo34 | OerHeks, it will copy data from one partition to the other | 10:54 |
| ivo34 | won't it? | 10:55 |
| JediMaster | Hi, got a slightly unusual one, I want to have two NICs on a VM, one is a public facing IP range, and the other a 10.x internal subnet. I want the default route to be via the internal 10.x network, but have the ability for people to SSH in via the public IP. Is that even possible with the default route out via the internal NIC/subnet? | 10:55 |
| OerHeks | no, it will clone partitions as it is | 10:55 |
| ducasse | ivo34: you need to resize partitions later, clonezilla does what it says on the tin. | 10:55 |
| ivo34 | oh okay | 10:55 |
| de-facto | use rsync to clone a partitions filesystem content? | 10:56 |
| maret | Hi everyone, is there a way to check what are changes when I update from 14.04 to 16.04? I can't find it anything. Articles only talk about changes between last versions and I am curious about summary of those. | 11:08 |
| ducasse | maret: read the release notes? | 11:09 |
| OerHeks | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes | 11:09 |
| maret | ducasse, too technical, too fine grained. I might have to read review of each version between I was just curious if there is some extra review give that some people updated only from lts to next lts | 11:10 |
| OerHeks | too fine grained + you want a review of each version, that bites | 11:10 |
| ducasse | maret: you should at least scan through them before upgrading. | 11:10 |
| OerHeks | releasenotes are a fine summary | 11:11 |
| YankDownUnder | Different coloured boot screen. Yep. HUGE change. | 11:11 |
| c0ax_ | Hey ppl. I have problem with AWS. Accidently I have terminated ec2 instance. But I have snapshot of volume. Now how I can attach volume to new instance and continue using that volume with my old files on that new instance..? P | 11:11 |
| OerHeks | SystemD is the biggest change, then the open ATI drivers | 11:11 |
| OerHeks | c0ax_, ask in ##aws ? | 11:12 |
| c0ax_ | Oh there is aws | 11:12 |
| c0ax_ | sorry | 11:12 |
| k1l_ | the changes on the packages depend on what the software changed in the last 2 years. like php from 5 to 7. or python to version 3 etc. | 11:12 |
| OerHeks | np | 11:12 |
| k1l_ | maret: so it is very difficult to see what changes are important for you. or any other single user. | 11:13 |
| maret | k1l_, sure I am looking for review article for general public as you see with every new ubuntu version | 11:14 |
| k1l_ | maret: the obvious will be omgubuntu. or look onto the planet on ubuntu.com | 11:14 |
| maret | yeah didnt check plane.. | 11:15 |
| de-facto | maret since there are so many changes, how about doing a quick review on a virtual machine and see if the software you are using is working for you on xenial? sooner or later you will have to upgrade especially since xenial is a long term support release... | 11:16 |
| maret | de-facto well I am going to install it anyway, i am just curious what has changed, I definitelly won't be able to figure that out just by trying it out. | 11:17 |
| OerHeks | this is your best guide, maret https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes | 11:18 |
| Dianita | Hello | 11:19 |
| maret | so no really guide then , I will just read articles for each version between 14.04 and 16.04 | 11:19 |
| maret | thanks anyways | 11:19 |
| ducasse | maret: users are expected to read the release notes, so they don't get surprised by big changes that affect them. | 11:19 |
| Abe_ | I thought 16.04 is not recommended yet until the release of 16.04.1 i didn't follow the hole conversation though | 11:20 |
| k1l_ | !ltsupgrade | 11:20 |
| ubottu | The automatic LTS upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 was scheduled when 16.04.1 LTS was released on July 21st, but has been postponed for one week due to final bug testing. | 11:20 |
| de-facto | at least that is what i always tend to do, fire up a vm and get a feeling for the new version, then when i feel its stable enough and most of my software is working on it (well sometimes with some patches) i go ahead and boot it from a usb, see if bare metal hw is working too, then install it on a second ssd (i always have two, one wth the older version, one with the new version). that way i always can use the older version if things break, but | 11:21 |
| de-facto | honestly i cant remember that i had to boot the older version | 11:21 |
| Abe_ | if i do a dist-upgrade it hopefully doesn't upgrade to 16.04 or does it? | 11:21 |

| BluesKaj | Hey all | 11:22 |
| Dianita | How to make a simple little console's temp color util like F.lux or RedShift? | 11:22 |
| mcphail | Abe_: not unless you have manually changed your sources list | 11:22 |
| k1l_ | Abe_: ubuntu doesnt use apt-get to upgrade | 11:22 |
| Abe_ | i don't want 16.04 until 2019 if it's possible | 11:22 |
| Abe_ | so if I just do apt-get dist-upgrade it won't change thx. i think 16.04 will be still to buggy for me | 11:23 |
| de-facto | its pretty stable for me | 11:23 |
| Abe_ | i tried kubuntu 16.04 and the screen locker didn't even work yet so I give them some more time to work on things | 11:24 |
| OerHeks | fresh install 16.04.1 works fine. | 11:25 |
| Abe_ | i screwed my system once with the 16.04 upgrade.. | 11:26 |
| Abe_ | i wait until the last day | 11:27 |
| OerHeks | last day .. install 15.10 Abe_ | 11:27 |
| Abe_ | nope my pc works just fine right now ^^ | 11:28 |
| k1l_ | Abe_: its your decision. you can stay on 14.04 for quite some time if you like. so that is fine. | 11:28 |
| Abe_ | if it aint broke, don't fix it | 11:28 |
| k1l_ | just keep in mind, that some flavors dont offer the full 5 years of support. so if you use kubuntu that is only 3 years iirc | 11:29 |
| Abe_ | they offer security updates until 2019 even for kubuntu i thought | 11:29 |
| k1l_ | no. just for the packages in "main". not all kde packages | 11:30 |
| Abe_ | well i use ubuntu i just installed kde on top of it | 11:30 |
| Abe_ | if kde is not supported anymore thats fine, as long as security updates still come in | 11:30 |
| k1l_ | Abe_: ubuntu only ships 5 years security update to packages in the main repo. the kde packages are handled by the kubuntu team and they dont guarantee any updates after their EOL. | 11:31 |
| k1l_ | Abe_: so you wont get even security updates for the kde stuff after the EOL | 11:32 |
| icedwater | What tools can I use to resize a lvm partition and its attendant filesystem on an Ubuntu VM? I tried dropping to "recovery" and using fsadm -l -e resize, but it didn't work. | 11:33 |
| Abe_ | so i cannot use kde 4 until 2019? | 11:34 |
| Abe_ | i have ubuntu on it i just did apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 11:34 |
| Abe_ | to get kde | 11:34 |
| OerHeks | who wants a 5 year ol' kde4 .. | 11:35 |
| Abe_ | I do | 11:35 |
| k1l_ | Abe_: its not about ubuntu or kubuntu. its about from which repo the packages come. and kde is not in main. only the packages from main do get 5years support by ubuntu. | 11:35 |
| Abe_ | like i said i have ubuntu, i just have to log out and change my desktop enviroment | 11:36 |
| k1l_ | Abe_: yes | 11:36 |
| k1l_ | Abe_: but your kde packages dont get any updates after the kubuntu team set the EOL. that is the point. | 11:37 |
| Abe_ | well thats ok then i guess. i will still use kde even after EOL | 11:37 |
| Abe_ | kde 5 is still to buggy for me. | 11:38 |
| BluesKaj | Abe_, the repos are shut down, time to install a newer OS that's still supported | 11:38 |
| k1l_ | he is using 14.04 | 11:39 |
| Abe_ | EOL is 2017 for kde 4 i thought | 11:40 |
| Abe_ | updates still work. don't confuse me xD | 11:41 |
| k1l_ | Abe_: its not about kde. its about the team handling the kde packages | 11:41 |
| Photon | Hi | 11:42 |
| Photon | I haven't installed Ubuntu on Laptop for while | 11:42 |
| Photon | ,still needs to installing bumblebee on it? | 11:42 |
| Abe_ | Photon: for Nvidia Optimus? | 11:42 |
| Photon | Yes Nvidia 740m | 11:43 |
| Abe_ | Disable secure boot and install the recommended drivers. is what I did. No bumblebee | 11:43 |
| k1l_ | no. bumblebee is deprecated long time on ubuntu | 11:43 |
| DJones | Photon: I've got a laptop with Nvidia 750M, I use nvidia-prime and haven't had any issues | 11:44 |
| k1l_ | ubuntu uses nvidia-prime which is the official nvidia support | 11:44 |
| Photon | Great news | 11:44 |
| Photon | thanks... | 11:44 |
| Abe_ | I have Nvidia Optimus. They didn't install until I disabled secure boot in UEFI | 11:44 |
| Photon | How can I checking Graphic is disabled or enabled? | 11:45 |
| Abe_ | Nvidia X server settings. you should be able to switch between intel and Nvidia gpu | 11:46 |
| Photon | ok' | 11:46 |
| BluesKaj | Abe_, sorry I misinterpreted your situation .... I run kde as well, and 16.04 is still buggy the change to plasma5 hasn't been smooth, but it's getting much better | 11:46 |
| Photon | other question my Update Software not opening aftrr doubled click on it | 11:47 |
| Abe_ | I know time will fix things. thats why I wanna wait longer. | 11:48 |
| Abe_ | kde 4 still runs way more stable | 11:48 |
| BluesKaj | Abe_, yeah if you're on a production machine then that's probly wise | 11:48 |
| k1l_ | i think we got the facts cleared now | 11:49 |
| Abe_ | well it's my home pc. and i don't wanted to be buggy to be honest | 11:49 |
| BluesKaj | Abe_, quite frankly i regret switching to 16.04 so soon as my main OS | 11:50 |

| ubottu | The automatic LTS upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 was scheduled when 16.04.1 LTS was released on July 21st, but has been postponed for one week due to final bug testing. | 11:51 |
| fukinoodles | Is it out? 28 today | 11:52 |
| Abe_ | BluesKaj: I switched too. but I downgraded again using my old 3.13 kernel again. | 11:52 |
| fukinoodles | My Ubuntu installation has a bazillion bugs and I'm looking to do a clean install of 16.04. How can I keep my programs? | 11:53 |
| BluesKaj | Abe_, I have an older legacy BIOS machine I may still reinstall 14.04 if the sudden crashes don't stop soon | 11:53 |
| ivo34 | hello again...I want to dual boot ubuntu with windows, in a two hdd pc. currently I have ubuntu on an old maxtor 150GiB hdd with two partitions one for / and other for /home in the 2TiB hdd I have a ntfs 488GiB partition I called windowshome and I made another 50GiB for the windows system itself...now my question is: does the order I place partitions matter? I mean I think it is important to have systems in different hdd, but do need s | 11:54 |
| ivo34 | ystems to be next to their home partitions? I was thinking on this scheme: ubuntuSystem(disk150GiB) windowsSystem(part50GiBdisk2TiB)windowsHome(part950GiBdisk2TiB)ubuntuHome(part1000GiBdisk2TiB) | 11:54 |
| Abe_ | BluesKaj: whatever fits your needs is good i think. | 11:55 |
| BluesKaj | fukinoodles, one method is to make sure you have separate / and /home partitions . That way you can install the OS to / and preserve your /home | 11:55 |
| cuboid | Firefox is not displaying a particular character in both webpages and in its interface. http://graphemica.com/%E2%96%B8 | 11:56 |
| fukinoodles | BluesKaj I do have separate partitions | 11:56 |
| k1l_ | cuboid: that works here on firefox | 11:57 |
| BluesKaj | fukinoodles, then you shouldn't have much of a problem upgrading | 11:57 |
| fukinoodles | Blueskaj Will that preserve my applications such as gimp? | 11:57 |
| BluesKaj | fukinoodles, if it's not default your config files will be still be there, so reinstalling will restore al your settings if | 11:58 |
| cuboid | k1l_: The character displays fine in xterm (including in w3m). | 11:58 |
| BluesKaj | needed | 11:59 |
| cuboid | k1l_: I have Noto fonts installed. | 11:59 |
| cuboid | k1l_: I have the 'Allow websites to use their own fonts' option enabled, which I should be able to do. | 11:59 |
| fukinoodles | Can I get a list of my installed packages so I dont miss anything? | 11:59 |

| ubottu | fukinoodles: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can use the !software package "apt-clone" - See also !automate | 12:00 |
| k1l_ | cubic2: could be a font issue you set there. it works here on a standard firefox and font setup | 12:00 |

| ubottu | Ways to automate installation of Ubuntu on multiple machines are described at https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/i386/apb.html - See also !cloning | 12:00 |
| cuboid | k1l_: I have not changed the font setup in Firefox. I am however going to install the DejaVu font, just in case. | 12:01 |
| k1l_ | cuboid: "standard font: serif" | 12:02 |
| fukinoodles | Since the point release notification hasn't come out yet will I have to upgrade soon if I install the 16.04.1 ISO right now on the website. | 12:03 |
| k1l_ | fukinoodles: its just a "servicepack" release | 12:03 |

| k1l_ | why dont you use the 16.04.1 iso for a new install=? | 12:06 |
| cuboid | k1l_: That is what is set in Firefox, but it still does not show the character. What serif font is yours using as the default? | 12:06 |
| fukinoodles | k1l_ yeah that's what I;m gonna do. But since the point release for 16.04.1 hasn't happened yet (postponed to 28th Jul) will that mean I have to immediately update when that comes out later today? | 12:08 |
| k1l_ | fukinoodles: no | 12:08 |
| k1l_ | fukinoodles: the release did happen | 12:08 |
| k1l_ | fukinoodles: its just the 14.04 to 16.04 LTS upgrade is not opened yet for last bug testings. | 12:08 |

| mrautisticsheep | hi guys i have a dig big | 12:11 |
| mrautisticsheep | You you read that wrong | 12:11 |
| k1l_ | cuboid: its latin, serif. i really dont know what you changed. you said you changed the fonts so i guess your font just doesnt have a support for that unicode characters | 12:11 |
| mrautisticsheep | you've read that wrong too | 12:11 |
| cuboid | k1l_: I have not changed the default font setup of Firefox. But I have downloaded and installed the Noto fonts which are Unicode fonts. | 12:12 |

| k1l_ | Aliekezhi: put all the command and output into paste.ubuntu.com and show the link here | 12:20 |

| crazyhorse18 | k1l_, nah i haven't .. do i need to? | 12:20 |
| k1l_ | crazyhorse18: ttf-mscorefonts-installer is the pacakge, and that works with apt. if you have multiverse repo enabled | 12:20 |

| dionysus69 | I removed windows partition totally but updating grub still sees a windows loader. what do I do, just go to efi partition and delete windows.efi file? | 12:43 |
| mahamadou | hello | 12:44 |
| mahamadou | I think the windows partitions were not well removed | 12:44 |
| BluesKaj | dionysus69, that depends whether or not you want to run in EFI or legacy mode with, and how the GPT table will affect that is iffy iirc | 12:46 |
| cuboid | k1l_: Success! Once I installed ttf-dejavu, the character is showing up in the interface and on the webpages. | 12:46 |
| dionysus69 | BluesKaj: I am in efi mode | 12:46 |
| dionysus69 | I just want to remove windows from grub ... :) | 12:47 |
| BluesKaj | dionysus69, run sudo os=prober if windows is removed , the sudo update-grub, i would think | 12:49 |
| BluesKaj | os-prober dionysus69 | 12:49 |
| dionysus69 | update-grub still detects windows loader | 12:49 |
| dionysus69 | since I just deleted windows partitions and efi loader would still be in efi partition | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | run os-prober first | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | then update-grub | 12:50 |
| dionysus69 | yep, nothing, did the same | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | odd | 12:51 |
| BluesKaj | well you can wipe the windows efi partiton then reinstall grub | 12:51 |
| BluesKaj | from live media | 12:52 |
| dionysus69 | I just did sudo efibootmgr -b 0014 -B | 12:53 |

| torodoro | it's problem because program like thunderbird give me error for connecting and internet access | 12:59 |
| BluesKaj | hehe ioria , it's exactly the opposite of my suggestiuon, so os-prober only looks for ntfs not ext partitions :-) | 13:01 |

| sparkly | just upgraded 16.04. Had the "Please enter passphrase for disk cryptswap1 on none!" for 10 years on various machines. Wonder if someone has a fix (google failed me). | 13:17 |
| sparkly | and disabling encrypted swap is not a fix ^^ | 13:18 |
| OerHeks | encryptes swap ... that is really bad, as the passphrase is on that encryptted swap :-D | 13:20 |
| OerHeks | run around in circles | 13:20 |
| sparkly | well - its suppose to do it automatically. I remember stumbling upon the issue first time in Ubuntu 10 i think. | 13:21 |
| OerHeks | encryption and encrypted swap are not mature enough on linux. | 13:21 |
| sparkly | thats what i though :/ | 13:21 |
| sparkly | on "linux" may be a bit harsh | 13:22 |
| OerHeks | solution: use non encrypted swap, or no swap at all ( my choise would be the 2nd one) | 13:22 |
| sparkly | sure. I do think its a problem that its a readily available option in the graphical installer. | 13:24 |

| rajivmars | What is the command to get information about the OS in ubuntu 16. | 13:59 |
| zetheroo | is it true that if i type a password into the terminal that it's saved in the terminal history (bash history)? | 14:00 |
| rajivmars | What is the command to get information about the OS in ubuntu 16.04? | 14:00 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: yes, as it will be an invalid command | 14:00 |
| ikonia | rajivmars: what sort of information | 14:00 |
| OerHeks | rajivmars, systemsettings > details | 14:00 |
| rajivmars | ikonia: like os version. | 14:01 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: isn't that a security risk? | 14:01 |
| FlipBill | uname -a | 14:01 |
| genii | zetheroo: If you're worried about that, put a space before the command and it won't go into the .bash_history file | 14:01 |
| FlipBill | for kernel | 14:01 |
| zetheroo | genii: ok interesting | 14:01 |
| ikonia | rajivmars: you know you're using 16.04 - you've just said | 14:01 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: the security issue is the user, not this | 14:01 |
| ikonia | bash_history just puts anything you type into the terminal into the history | 14:02 |
| FlipBill | rajivmars, what information are you looking for. Your question is not specific. | 14:02 |
| ikonia | if you are stupid enough to put your password in and not clear it out of the history - then "you" are the security issue | 14:02 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: (I don't mean you the person I mean generic keyboard operator) | 14:02 |
| zetheroo | so if it's in the bash history and someone steal the PC, gets the file, they can see all those passwords? | 14:02 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: thats user security problem | 14:02 |
| ikonia | not a system security | 14:02 |
| rajivmars | ikonia: yes. But i don't know the command. I am new in linux. | 14:02 |
| ikonia | and you can always encypt the disk | 14:02 |
| ikonia | rajivmars: but you know it's 16.04 | 14:03 |
| OerHeks | zetheroo, never seen my password in bash_history | 14:03 |
| kgirthofer | zetheroo, encrypt the drive | 14:03 |
| ikonia | rajivmars: so why do you want to know the OS if you know it's 16.04 | 14:03 |
| kgirthofer | he's referring to things like 'mysql -u root -ppassword | 14:03 |
| zetheroo | I never knew the passwords were saved anywhere in plain text | 14:03 |
| FlipBill | rajivmars, Define "OS" | 14:03 |
| rick6860 | is there a way to change the way folders display content? In windows I can show a list or details or thumbnails. Can I do that in MATE? | 14:03 |
| kgirthofer | that'll get stored in bash history | 14:03 |
| OerHeks | kgirthofer, oh, oke | 14:03 |
| kgirthofer | logging in will not be stored in history | 14:03 |
| FlipBill | rajivmars, IOW, what are you asking? | 14:03 |
| mcphail | zetheroo: only passwords you have entered as a normal shell command are included in the history. If you type "sudo command" then enter your passowrd at the prompt, tthat isn't stored | 14:03 |
| zetheroo | kgirthofer: can you clarify? | 14:03 |
| sumoruman | kgirthofer: Thank you for explaining, I was so confused as to why you'd ever be typing your password into the terminal like that :P | 14:04 |
| zetheroo | mcphail: ah ok | 14:04 |
| kgirthofer | so if you log into the machine - your password will not be stored in the history | 14:04 |
| zetheroo | or if I ssh into another machine ... | 14:04 |
| zetheroo | ? | 14:04 |
| kgirthofer | if you log into mysql for example and include your password it WILL store in bash history | 14:04 |
| kgirthofer | BUT | 14:04 |
| mcphail | zetheroo: if you accidently enter a password in a normal shell prompt, if you type "kill -9 0" it will close the terminal without saving the password to your history | 14:04 |
| OerHeks | zetheroo, if someone steals your machine without encrypting, send them here and we help resetting the password | 14:04 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: basically if you "visually" see the password on the command line - it's in the history | 14:04 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: if you don't see it - it's not | 14:04 |
| kgirthofer | you can do things like mysql -u root -p with no password and it'll ask and not store the pass in histo | 14:04 |
| ikonia | thats the short cut to the answer | 14:04 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: ok, that's clear | 14:05 |
| zetheroo | thanks | 14:05 |
| kgirthofer | encrypt hte drive, encrpyt users home directories, then you're fine | 14:05 |
| rajivmars | ikonia: yes i know. But still i am curious to know the command to get this information from the terminal.. i know how to get it from the GUI. but i don't no the command line for this. | 14:05 |
| zetheroo | about encrypting the drive - can the drive be encrypted with a unique password - something other than the password of the user? | 14:06 |
| tgm4883 | zetheroo: if you encrypt the full drive it's not tied to the password of the user | 14:06 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: honestly - I'd conisder long and hard about encrypting your drive | 14:06 |
| ikonia | it's not something you should do unless you REALLY need it | 14:06 |
| tgm4883 | ikonia: why? | 14:07 |
| ikonia | it can put your recovert at risk, more so if you have a problem | 14:07 |
| ikonia | recovery | 14:07 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: yeah, I tend to agree | 14:07 |

| rajivmars | flipbill: yes i have read all those. | 14:09 |
| zetheroo | what about passwords saved in memory - is that a risk? | 14:10 |
| kgirthofer | yea but it's one you have to deal with - so limit it's accessibility | 14:10 |
| kgirthofer | it's not a risk if you build your systems correctly | 14:11 |
| zetheroo | will encrypting the disk have any effect on that? | 14:11 |
| zetheroo | speaking of PC's | 14:11 |
| zetheroo | which we don't "build" :) | 14:11 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: I think you need to be realistic about a.) your situation b.) your risk of compromise c.) the data you are storing on this device - is it really that secret | 14:11 |
| tgm4883 | ikonia: +1 | 14:12 |
| FlipBill | rajivmars, I asked you for clarification in order to help you. You seemed to ignore it. Did I miss your response? | 14:12 |
| zetheroo | it's more for informational reasons - it's come up from a couple Linux users and I keep asking for real-life scenarios ;P | 14:12 |
| zetheroo | I just don't know myself how easy/hard it is to retrieve passwords from the memory/swap | 14:13 |
| tgm4883 | zetheroo: IIRC, pretty hard | 14:13 |
| llldino | zetheroo, Maybe look into this: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/ecryptfs.html Full disk encryption is rarely necessary but If you have sensitive data you need to store ecryptfs can do so without you having to crypt the entire drive | 14:13 |
| kgirthofer | encrypting a drive adds to boot time, but it's inconsequential. After boot the drive is unlocked - helps if someone steals the drives or something else. Once it's booted the drive is unencryped. Hence encrypting user homes | 14:13 |

| ikonia | rajivmars: lsb_release -a | 14:13 |
| zetheroo | ok | 14:13 |
| zetheroo | so encrypting the disk also means that the swap is encrypted | 14:14 |
| genii | zetheroo: When you type a command in like sudo <something> the command you typed goes to the bash history file, but not the password you enter when sudo prompts you for one. So the only time passwords get in there is if for instance you run some command which has the password in clear text in the command itself | 14:14 |
| genii | zetheroo: And in those cases, just putting a space before the command will prevent it from being entered into the bash history file, as I explained earlier | 14:15 |
| rajivmars | flipBill: I was asking about this command: "lsb_release -a". I have already mention that i wanted to know the commang which used to get information about my OS such as its version. | 14:15 |
| zetheroo | genii; thanks, we covered that. :) I am asking now about passwords stored in memory/swap | 14:15 |
| rajivmars | ikonia: that's all what i have asked for. | 14:15 |

| FlipBill | rajivmars, Your interlocutors were puzzled because you already new the version ov your "distribution." You were asked to explain what you meant by "OS." I also gave you the command to identify the kernel. We don't know your purpose. Do you see the ambiguities? | 14:17 |

| FlipBill | rajivmars, Note that OerHeks just gave you far something to obtain far more comprehensive information, But we can't know what is helpful because you aren't helping us by being unresponsive and repeating the same vague question. | 14:19 |

| lernty | Is there any way to change the order of indicators in Ubuntu 16.04? Solutions like this one for Ubuntu 14.04 don't work for me (I edit the file in /usr/ without copying it to my user directory): http://www.webupd8.org/2011/06/how-to-change-application-indicators.html | 14:20 |
| FlipBill | OerHeks, Heh. And all that stuff in /etc/default/* and, and.... | 14:20 |
| rajivmars | flipBill: I am new in linux. that's why i wanted to know this simple command "lsb_release -a" to check OS detains from the terminal. i am learning linux, that's why i asked that question despite i know the OS version. | 14:21 |
| rajivmars | flipBill: I am new in linux. that's why i wanted to know this simple command "lsb_release -a" to check OS details from the terminal. i am learning linux, that's why i asked that question despite i know the OS version. | 14:21 |
| Gnomethrower | Hi there, I have a question about NTP/time sync on Ubuntu 14.04 | 14:22 |
| OerHeks | lernty, maybe this page is a better answer http://www.webupd8.org/2016/05/customize-notifyosd-notification.html | 14:22 |
| Gnomethrower | This page https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/NTP.html seems to imply that timesyncd " replaces the client portion of ntpd" | 14:22 |
| Gnomethrower | need to know if that's the case on 14.04 | 14:22 |
| Gnomethrower | as "NTP synchronized: no" when I run timedatectl | 14:23 |
| lernty | OerHeks: thanks but I want to change the small icons in the top-left of the screen (indicators like the time and language settings buttons, although I understand these aren't able to be re-ordered, I have other custom indicators I'd like to re-order), not notifications :P | 14:24 |
| zetheroo | When installing Ubuntu I am guessing it does some hardware detection ... no? | 14:24 |
| skinux | Is the "time remaining" display of battery power for laptops accurate? | 14:25 |
| arapgodsmack | j | 14:25 |
| FlipBill | rajivmars, Fair enough. But if you ask for help, please don't ignore requests for clarification. Good luck. | 14:25 |
| skinux | I ust unplugged my lappy, it shows 94% saying I have an hour and 16 minutes of power left. It changed from 2 hours to this in 2 seconds. | 14:25 |
| alkisg | skinux: do you have a car? when you see "remaining gas", don't you sometimes see "4 hours" and sometimes "2 hours"? | 14:26 |
| llldino | skinux, It's a function of the wattage used by the laptop and the detected remaining charge. The timer can only be so accurate | 14:26 |
| alkisg | That depends on how much you press the pedal | 14:26 |
| alkisg | (or in computers, the cpu) | 14:26 |
| skinux | Okay | 14:26 |
| skinux | So then my battery life is only one hour. | 14:26 |
| zetheroo | If I install Ubuntu on machine X and then make a clonezilla image of that install and restore that image to machine Y, and on machine Y hibernation doesn't work - could this be because Ubuntu was not "installed" on machine Y via the installer? | 14:26 |
| skinux | Hmm. When I bought this laptop I had a 3-4 hour battery life. | 14:26 |
| alkisg | No, it may be from 10 minutes to 2 hours, depending on what you do with it | 14:27 |
| alkisg | skinux: there's an indicator that tells you how much worn out the battery is | 14:27 |
| alkisg | If it's e.g. 80%, it's still good. If it's e.g. 20%, it needs to be replaced | 14:27 |
| skinux | Oh? What is the package for that? | 14:27 |
| Mordoc | zetheroo, it could be a number of things such as differences in hardware and such. What are the logs telling you? | 14:28 |
| alkisg | In the past I used to see that in the control panel, power options or something, then battery properties | 14:28 |
| mcphail | zetheroo: hibernation is buggy, and does not work on all hardware. Furthermore, there must be enough swap space to store RAM contents | 14:28 |
| rajivmars | FlipBill: SORRY:) If i am unable to clarify. I will try to ask clear questions after spending some time with linux. | 14:28 |
| alkisg | Google it a bit | 14:28 |
| skinux | Also, is there a way I can create an "image" of the system and save it as an ISO or something instead of burning it to DVD? | 14:28 |
| FlipBill | skinux, batteries are even harder to gauge than gas tanks. There is no way to directly measure the electrons left to flow. In a gas tank, a float can act as a decent proxy for volume, even if the fluid sloshes around. | 14:28 |
| cabox | FirefoxOS is full shit no antivirus potection firwall distabled! | 14:28 |
| kgirthofer | skinux, clonezilla to disk | 14:28 |
| cabox | l0l0 hah] | 14:29 |
| zetheroo | mcphail: yeah, that's what I have found. I have a user who is blaming his hibernation not working on the fact that it was a clonezilla image "install" | 14:29 |
| FlipBill | skinux, this is all aside from the question of converting to duration in the face of unpredictable consumption rates. | 14:29 |
| skinux | Power Statistics says my battery capacity of 51.5% what does that mean? | 14:29 |
| zetheroo | but I thought that hardware detection is on boot | 14:29 |
| kgirthofer | means your battery is at 51.5% capacity | 14:29 |
| FlipBill | rajivmars, No need to apologize for being disoriented. Just don't ignore people. | 14:29 |
| alkisg | skinux: it means it last half of what it used to, when it was new | 14:30 |
| papiChulo | hi guyz | 14:30 |
| mcphail | zetheroo: see https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html for debugging tips | 14:30 |
| FlipBill | skinux, It means it is somewhere between fully charged and completely dead. | 14:30 |
| skinux | Ahh. In other words my battery is 50% quality..only half good. | 14:30 |

| skinux | Looked at prices for a new one....$150-$200 for a new one. | 14:31 |
| alkisg | FlipBill: no, capacity isn't the same as charged, it means that if you charge it fully, it will only last for e.g. 2 hours instead of 4 hours when it was new | 14:31 |
| FlipBill | Batteries gauge readings are subject to calibration. They can be wildly misleading. | 14:31 |
| zetheroo | mcphail: is hibernation buggy on Linux in general, or is this more of an Ubuntu thing? | 14:31 |
| zetheroo | I am guessing it's not just with Ubuntu | 14:31 |
| FlipBill | alkisg, True. I was making a joke, and even those definitions are malleable. | 14:31 |
| alkisg | FlipBill: ok, and yup, they sure are | 14:32 |
| skinux | Hmm. In ten minutes I've lost 14% battery charge. | 14:32 |
| mcphail | zetheroo: linux in general. Hibernation has always been a bit neglected by the kernel devs | 14:32 |
| rajivmars | FlipBill: I am not ignoring people. yes i was unable to clarify. It is because i am new to linux:) | 14:32 |
| zetheroo | ok | 14:32 |
| mcphail | zetheroo: and I'm sure some hardware isn't as compliant with standards as it should be | 14:33 |

| codephobic | hi | 14:33 |
| === abelu|away is now known as abelur | ||
| ahrc333ff | hie codephobic | 14:34 |
| codephobic | I'm using 16.04 and I'm finding that nautilus is _very_ slow to open some volumes. There's nothing actually wrong with the disks and I have other volumes that open perfectly fine, so I'm just wondering if there's a bug or if it might be due to some format issue? | 14:34 |
| codephobic | Any advice on what tests I might conduct to discern the nature of the problem? | 14:35 |
| Gnomethrower | NTP enabled: yes | NTP synchronized: no | What do I do? | 14:35 |
| rajivmars | FlipBill: No need to apologize. you guys are always helping people, and that's great:) | 14:35 |
| Gnomethrower | ntpd never seems to sync on my system, and it's enabled and running | 14:35 |
| alkisg | codephobic: one test could be to check `dmesg`,`cat /var/log/syslog`, and `cat .xsession-errors`, right after accessing the volumes | 14:35 |
| codephobic | wonderworld: ah, ok I'll give it a go now | 14:36 |
| mcphail | codephobic: if you have a terminal running "top" as you open the volume, is there anything noticeable? A runaway mediascanner service or similar? | 14:36 |
| ahrc333ff | codephobic: I honestly couldn't troubleshoot this myself, but some suggestions might be to see if somehow permissions got screwed up. strace and ltrace might give you some information on that if nothing shows up in the logs. Hopefully someone more skilled can help. | 14:36 |
| codephobic | wonderworld: for some reason, all the volumes that were laggy before, are very zippy now. Can't replicate the problem. | 14:37 |
| skinux | Can keeping AC plugged in all the time ruin a battery? | 14:37 |
| alkisg | codephobic: if you're talking to me, I'm "alkisg", not "wonderwolrd"... | 14:37 |
| codephobic | alkisg: sorry for the mixup | 14:37 |
| |avalon| | yup, skinux, it is called overcharging | 14:37 |
| skinux | So, it ruins the battery then? | 14:38 |
| codephobic | alkisg: I'm using a new irc client and obviously my eyes aren't scanning the text well :( | 14:38 |
| |avalon| | if it is li-ion, yup | 14:38 |
| FlipBill | Depends on charger and battery type. | 14:38 |
| codephobic | alkisg: irssi, just in case you were wondering | 14:38 |
| |avalon| | and i think 90% are li-ion | 14:38 |
| fukinoodles | Any command line tools to create LiveUSBs? The startup disk creator doesn't recognise multiple partitions. | 14:38 |
| alkisg | codephobic: hehe, yup, ty | 14:38 |
| FlipBill | |avalon|, true. A charger should regulate its current flow appropriately. | 14:39 |
| cyberorg | fukinoodles, https://github.com/cyberorg/live-fat-stick | 14:39 |
| codephobic | alkisg: it should be possible to find the issue in the logs, even if I can't replicate it now, right? do you know which logs to look through and where? | 14:40 |
| codephobic | alkisg: I bet you're wishing I was still mixing you up with wonderworld! | 14:40 |
| fukinoodles | cyberorg but this won't work with ext4 partions, right? | 14:41 |
| alkisg | codephobic: haha... for starters, check the same commands that I wrote | 14:41 |
| FlipBill | codephobic, have you run top or iotop while nautilus does its thing? | 14:41 |
| alkisg | he can't reproduce it now | 14:42 |
| cyberorg | fukinoodles, live-grub-stick would | 14:42 |
| codephobic | alkisg: k, will try and navigate up screen in irssi (god I make thinks complicated for myself!). | 14:42 |
| FlipBill | Ah. | 14:42 |
| FlipBill | Sorry, wasn't paying close attention. | 14:42 |
| codephobic | FlipBill: didn't see anything odd in top, got top running all the time. | 14:42 |
| FlipBill | I wonder if nautilus does any caching, say of images, that is not consistently necessary. Perhaps making thumbnails? I don't use it. Does it display images like say, gwenview? | 14:43 |
| codephobic | mcphail: sorry for the late reply (new, horrid irc client), I didn't notice anything in top, at the time. Just xorg eating a bit more cpu for a moment. | 14:44 |
| codephobic | ahrc333ff: thanks, I'll look into them later maybe, if my masochistic streak doesn't end. | 14:45 |
| Sonderblade | for some reasons vlc sometimes shows streams with two sets of video controls. any idea? | 14:45 |
| mallory | hi | 14:46 |
| FlipBill | codephobic, I just googled and yes, nautilus does cache thumbnails. Maybe related? | 14:46 |
| codephobic | alkisg: is "CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -11" something that might be relevant? The volumes are mounted in fstab using cifs and some are windoes shares across my network. | 14:47 |
| alkisg | codephobic: cifs can cause big delays in nautilus, yes | 14:48 |
| codephobic | FlipBill: hmm, I always have the "detail" view, never use thumbnails (not really many photos, aside from wedding stuff, mostly music, tutorials and assorted rubbish. | 14:48 |
| FlipBill | codephobic, Net access could create tremendous variability, I would think. | 14:49 |
| codephobic | alkisg: ah, so I might be on the right track ... just can't reproduce the error now. | 14:49 |
| alkisg | codephobic: afaik nautilus generates thumbnails in any case, list or details or thumbs | 14:49 |
| FlipBill | codephobic, do that across a network and it could get interesting. | 14:50 |
| alkisg | codephobic: it has some settings for when to *not* call the thumbnailer programs, like networked file systems or big files | 14:50 |
| codephobic | alkisg: oh, didn't realise. | 14:50 |
| codephobic | FlipBill: I guess, but it was also occuring with volumes that are physically on this machine, but also shared across the lan. | 14:51 |
| codephobic | alkisg: ah, well that's something I'd never thought about before. | 14:51 |
| codephobic | alkisg: I'm going to google this "-11" status of SessSetup error. I have a feeling that might be it... Or am I just clutching at straws? | 14:52 |
| alkisg | no idea there | 14:52 |
| codephobic | alkisg: well, you've helped me narrow down to what is likely the issue at root | 14:54 |
| FlipBill | codephobic, It would be easy to test/dismiss the thumbnail theory. Just observe the thmubnail cache, wipe it out and run benchmarks. | 14:54 |
| mortenm | #ubuntu | 14:55 |
| codephobic | FlipBill: Ah, ok I'll give that a go, once I've fixed this CIFS VFS error issue. | 14:55 |
| mallory | hi | 14:57 |
| codephobic | I think this problem might also be related to an issue I'm having with shutting down/rebooting, where ubuntu takes practically an age to do this, on occasion. And always when I've still left nautilus open. | 14:57 |

| skinux | Ubuntu has a Unity platform or something... | 15:01 |
| fukinoodles | fuking kek "While there are some benefits to dual-booting (e.g. better performance for a native install), it is not recommended. Instead, it is best to do a native install of Ubuntu, and then virtualize the other operating system. " | 15:01 |

| ahrc333ff | fukinnoodles: if you're dual booting win/ubuntu and you've got a desktop, it's totally worth putting them on separate HDD. All of the issues that page you reference become non-issues since you can have the boot loaders on separate HDD's and, worst case scenario, you can just use the bios tool to quick select your boot device during boot up rather than via GRUB | 15:05 |

| OerHeks | edit during boot or from full booted syste,? | 16:00 |
| OerHeks | c/system | 16:00 |
| InvisiusM | from my htpc since the grub command line wouldn't let me permanently edit | 16:01 |

| OerHeks | InvisiusM, just boot again, hold shift to enter grub menu, choose the line and press 'e ' to edit | 16:05 |

| rafalcpp | what is the version of "apt-utils" in Precise and what in Trusty? | 16:18 |
| k1l_ | rafalcpp: packages.ubuntu.com can tell you | 16:19 |
| rafalcpp | k1l_: I'm thre but don't see a search | 16:19 |
| rafalcpp | oh there it is. nevermind. | 16:19 |
| InvisiusM | thanks for the suggestions anyhow akik | 16:19 |
| akik | InvisiusM: i was thinking that you could start the installation in vesa mode and then later install nvidia-361 | 16:20 |
| InvisiusM | I take it they removed that option from the kernel? | 16:21 |
| akik | InvisiusM: i guess so. can't keep up | 16:24 |
| rafalcpp | can I update a system to have version of software as on given date? | 16:26 |
| tmianotc | Ubuntu 16.04 unity desktop environment does not load after open PC , just launcher | 16:27 |
| rafalcpp | for example apt-utils are now in Trusty at version 1.0.1ubuntu2.13 (or 2.14 with Trusty-updates), but few months back the version of this packet in Trusty was 1.0.1ubuntu2.11 | 16:27 |
| rafalcpp | can I restore exact this version of software? | 16:27 |
| tgm4883 | rafalcpp: given date, no. You could do given version | 16:28 |
| rafalcpp | tgm4883: ok, how to have version 1.0.1ubuntu2.11 of apt-utils on Trusty? | 16:28 |
| akik | InvisiusM: can you try both "xforcevesa nomodeset" ? | 16:29 |
| Bluewolf | Hi all | 16:29 |
| k1l_ | if that version is still in the repos, then you can force that with apt. but the question is, why do you want that version? | 16:29 |
| rafalcpp | I need this to build identical version of software (for checking if build was correct / reproducible builds) | 16:29 |
| tgm4883 | rafalcpp: iirc, 'apt install <packagename>=<version> | 16:29 |

| jungn | can anyone help me with an issue where Unity is "missing" | 16:30 |
| rafalcpp | thanks tgm4883 | 16:35 |
| rafalcpp | any reason how to easily obtain list of software versions on given date | 16:35 |
| xpheres | hello, I would like to ask if installing a kernel for music with priority to multimedia will impact latency when playing a midi device | 16:36 |
| rafalcpp | any reason how to easily obtain list of software versions on given date? e.g. I have list "apt-utils gcc g++" and date like "2016-01-01 12:00" (utc) and I want to get list like that apt-utils was 1.0.1ubuntu15, g++ was version ..... etc | 16:36 |
| xpheres | I have a big latency when playing a midi keyboard and I wonder if it worth changing the kernel or not | 16:36 |
| mcphail | xpheres: the #ubuntustudio people might be able to give you guidance. Generally, there's more to be gained by setting up JACK correctly than playing with kernel configs | 16:41 |
| xpheres | ah thanks | 16:41 |
| mcphail | (in my experience) | 16:41 |
| xpheres | that's another problem mcphail | 16:41 |
| xpheres | there's no way I can start jack | 16:41 |
| xpheres | it works, it connects my midi interface to the synth | 16:42 |
| xpheres | but it does not start and I followed all troubleshootings and forums and there's no way to make it start | 16:42 |
| mcphail | xpheres: I hit brick walls with jack too, so am probably not the best person to advise. I cannot, for the life of me, get it to start using HDMI audio | 16:42 |
| xpheres | I see | 16:44 |
| xpheres | I've read problems with jack server not starting has to do with kernel | 16:44 |
| xpheres | I would install another kernel just if someone confirms me that it makes a real change | 16:44 |
| xpheres | but latency problem may rely on other things | 16:44 |
| mcphail | xpheres: well, I can run jack on the stock kernel from 16.04 if I use the audio outputs on my motherboard. But not with HDMI via my nvidia card | 16:45 |
| xpheres | the latency problem by the way is only hard when recording | 16:45 |
| xpheres | but not when playing without recording | 16:45 |
| xpheres | when playing sounds ok | 16:45 |
| xpheres | so I wonder if new kernel will resolve latency when recording | 16:46 |
| de-facto | are there several different versions in the clipboard when i copied a text? | 16:48 |
| mcphail | xpheres: honestly, I think you need to get a low latency audio server running before messing with kernels. Jack makes a big difference. Why not ask in #ubuntustudio, though? They live for this kind of thing :) | 16:48 |
| de-facto | how come in one program pastes are completely different (other parts of text) from another program for the same copy? | 16:48 |
| xpheres | I asked there too mcphail | 16:49 |
| xpheres | thanks for the tip | 16:49 |
| mcphail | xpheres: cool. Good luck. It is great when it work! | 16:49 |
| OerHeks | de-facto, better code. | 16:49 |
| xpheres | I hope so | 16:49 |

| alkisg | de-facto: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3571179/how-does-x11-clipboard-handle-multiple-data-formats | 16:50 |
| fukinoodles | Help needed. Trying to reinstall Ubuntu on a buggy installation and can't see my existing home partition in the liveUSB installation wizard. | 16:50 |
| alkisg | de-facto: example: Current clipboard offers formats: ('TIMESTAMP', 'TARGETS', 'MULTIPLE', 'SAVE_TARGETS', 'text/html', 'text/_moz_htmlcontext', 'text/_moz_htmlinfo', 'UTF8_STRING', 'COMPOUND_TEXT', 'TEXT', 'STRING', 'text/x-moz-url-priv') | 16:51 |
| fukinoodles | If I install anyway will the new install use my existing /home? | 16:51 |
| de-facto | wow lol what a mess | 16:51 |
| de-facto | didnt know about those yet | 16:51 |
| de-facto | id prefer text to be just text | 16:52 |
| ironsoul | asd | 16:52 |
| alkisg | de-facto: it's the same in windows, multiple formats are supported there as well. And it's a good thing, to be able to paste either rich text or plain text, depending on the target app. | 16:52 |
| alkisg | de-facto: for plain text, there's the middle click copy/paste | 16:53 |
| de-facto | alkisg thanks for hinting me to this. Well actually if i copied text, i cant imagine any scenario where i want its format to be pasted aswell | 16:53 |
| alkisg | I.e. you select something, then go to the target app, and press middle click. No "copy" step involved. | 16:53 |
| akik | de-facto: the same for me, i hate it when the formats are pasted along too | 16:54 |
| de-facto | yup that works much better | 16:54 |
| asar | guys help me out.. Software center says no application data found | 16:54 |
| alkisg | de-facto: copy from firefox, paste to libreoffice, you *might* want to preserve the format, and of course you can "paste as text" if you don't want to | 16:54 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: if the installer can't see the partition, I doubt it will be used as /home | 16:56 |
| alkisg | You should troubleshoot before continuing the installation | 16:56 |
| fukinoodles | Howm | 16:57 |
| de-facto | alkisg thanks for making this clear, i didnt actually know the details about this, just was always cursing when the formats traveled along with the paste (because they almost everytime break things) | 16:57 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: start with describing the problem, how are you trying to see the partition, what error messages you get etc. | 16:58 |
| alkisg | de-facto: you're welcome | 16:58 |
| fukinoodles | I tried gparted, df both can't see it. Let me post screenshots from there. | 16:59 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: no need. Text mode is better. What's the output of: sudo lsblk --fs; sudo fdisk -l | 17:00 |
| fukinoodles | No error messages just can't see it. | 17:00 |
| alkisg | Put those to paste.ubuntu.com | 17:00 |
| fukinoodles | OK wait. | 17:00 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: also include: sudo parted -l (in case it's gpt) | 17:00 |
| === tincan is now known as Alshulaih | ||

| maret | hi everyone I am installing replacing some linux distro with Ubuntu. so I have windows dual boot with the old distor. I've opened partion editor , I've marked swap partition from previos linux distro as new swap for ubuntu and I've labeled the old ext4 as / Mounting point do I need to do something else? | 17:06 |
| k1l_ | maret: you could do a seperate /home partition if you like. but that is your choice. both will work | 17:08 |
| maret | k1l_, yeah for now I think I will be ok with one partition | 17:08 |
| fukinoodles | Aliksg http://paste.ubuntu.com/21294260 | 17:08 |
| maret | but definitelly a good point | 17:08 |
| k1l_ | maret: and mark the "new" / to be formated to make sure there is nothing of the old system left that will interfer with the ubuntu | 17:08 |
| fukinoodles | Alkisg http://paste.ubuntu.com/21294260 | 17:09 |
| maret | yeap it will be formatted | 17:09 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: you only have one ext4 partition, did you think you had 2, one for / and one for /home? | 17:09 |
| fukinoodles | I'm sure I had two. I have another 20 GB /home partition. If you add the ones visible they are 300gb. My hard disk is 320gb. | 17:11 |
| Ixbalanque | hey all, new to linux here. I'm trying to start a daemon(?) but it returns an error message stating, "job for esxmon.service failed because the control process exited with error code.

| alkisg | fukinoodles: can you imagine something that deleted the whole partition? E.g. some user action? | 17:12 |
| maret | a crap I got error that it was not possible to install the bootleader at specified location, no details. I tried /dev/sda1 dev/sda2 same problem | 17:12 |
| maret | wait | 17:13 |
| fukinoodles | Nah I can access the files and it works fine on Ubuntu. | 17:13 |
| maret | I think it want to try to install on different disk not the primary one | 17:13 |
| asar | guys help me out.. Software center says no application data found | 17:13 |
| EriC^^ | you're supposed to install it to /dev/sda | 17:13 |
| EriC^^ | not a partition | 17:13 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: also, what's the output of this: sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt; cat /mnt/etc/fstab; sudo umount /mnt | 17:13 |
| maret | so /dev/sdb because sda is secondary disk | 17:13 |
| maret | ok it wont mess up my windows booting will it? | 17:14 |
| k1l_ | asar: used bleachbit or something? | 17:14 |
| varaindemian | how do I know if the trim is working for my ssd (16.04.1) | 17:14 |
| asar | k1l_: still the same | 17:14 |
| EriC^^ | maret: is windows on /dev/sdb ? | 17:15 |
| maret | yes | 17:15 |
| k1l_ | asar: no. did you use bleachbit? because that is known to make a mess on the system | 17:15 |
| EriC^^ | maret: then yeah it will if you're using legacy | 17:15 |
| maret | it says dev/sdb1 Windows 7(loader), /dev/sdb2 Windows 7(loader) /dev/sdb4 (empty) | 17:15 |
| k1l_ | maret: bootloader needs to go to sda or sdb. | 17:16 |
| EriC^^ | any mention of efi? | 17:16 |
| k1l_ | not sda1 | 17:16 |
| maret | dont t efi mentioned anywhere | 17:16 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 17:16 |
| maret | ok so sdb it is I mean if data are safe...bootloader can be fixed afterwards | 17:16 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 17:16 |
| maret | well picked /dev/sdb/ and wont alow me to go further -_- will retry installation | 17:17 |
| k1l_ | asar: see this thread for the answers. changing language and reboot might help. or press the reload button if there is some: http://askubuntu.com/questions/760278/the-new-software-center-in-ubuntu-16-04-shows-no-application-data-found | 17:17 |
| maret | or should I try to continue wihtou bootloader? | 17:17 |
| EriC^^ | what does it say when you try with dev/sdb? | 17:17 |
| ahrc333ff | asar: Are you writing to IRC from the device which is giving the error? | 17:17 |
| maret | its hard to install manually bootloader if I have ubuntu usb stick? | 17:17 |
| fukinoodles | http://paste.ubuntu.com/21295461 | 17:17 |
| asar | k1l_: i already tried that... i might make fresh install or something | 17:17 |
| fukinoodles | Alkisg | 17:17 |
| maret | Sorry, an error occured and it was not possible to install the bootloader at the specified location, not details rofl | 17:17 |
| asar | ahrc333ff: yes | 17:17 |
| EriC^^ | maret: it's easy | 17:17 |
| k1l_ | asar: you tried what exactly? | 17:18 |
| maret | ok | 17:18 |
| k1l_ | asar: and you still did not answer if you used bleachbit or not. | 17:18 |
| ahrc333ff | asar: Interesting, so you have an internet connection. Does the application work at all? | 17:18 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: see, your fstab proves that you didn't have a separate /home. It would mention it if you had one. | 17:18 |
| EriC^^ | you need to follow a guide to do it | 17:18 |
| asar | k1l_: the language thing | 17:18 |
| maret | lol actually nothing works :D | 17:18 |
| maret | clicking ok no cance the installation nothing | 17:18 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: your /home is inside /dev/sda6, along with the existing installation. | 17:18 |
| asar | k1l_: no it happened before i used bleachbit | 17:18 |
| asar | ahrc333ff: what application | 17:19 |
| fukinoodles | Can I do anything to separate it? | 17:19 |
| EriC^^ | maret: reinstalling grub https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#via_ChRoot | 17:19 |
| maret | Eric well I might have to restart the computer because ok button does nothing | 17:19 |
| ahrc333ff | asar: Software Center. You're trying to utilize it, right? | 17:19 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: sure, you can use gparted to resize your existing ext4 partition so that it now is only /home. But you don't need to; ubuntu can preserve /home on reinstallations, so you don't need a separate partition. | 17:19 |
| k1l_ | asar: run "sudo appstreamcli refresh --force" | 17:20 |
| asar | ahrc333ff: it opens but nothing shows | 17:20 |
| asar | ahrc333ff: all it says is no application data found | 17:20 |
| fukinoodles | alkisg do I have to uncheck format on the ext4 root partition? | 17:20 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: yes, if you format it, you will lose all your existing /home files | 17:21 |
| de-facto | alkisg where did you get the list for your example from? | 17:21 |
| ahrc333ff | asar: not sure what happened,but I found this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/760278/the-new-software-center-in-ubuntu-16-04-shows-no-application-data-found | 17:21 |
| de-facto | alkisg i mean this here: Current clipboard offers formats: ('TIMESTAMP', 'TARGETS', 'MULTIPLE', 'SAVE_TARGETS', 'text/html', 'text/_moz_htmlcontext', 'text/_moz_htmlinfo', 'UTF8_STRING', 'COMPOUND_TEXT', 'TEXT', 'STRING', 'text/x-moz-url-priv') | 17:22 |
| alkisg | de-facto: I just ran the python code in the link I gave you, on my pc, after copying something from firefox | 17:22 |
| k1l_ | asar: and in the future, dont run bleachbit anymore. | 17:22 |
| maret | EriC^^, I did restart pc and back to installation again can I setup loader now> I did set ext4 for ubuntu it self and the swap | 17:23 |
| maret | ou nvm i think I got it | 17:23 |
| de-facto | alkisg interessting i will play with that, thanks :) | 17:23 |
| fukinoodles | Alkisg one last thing. When I add up all visible partitions in gparted GUI it adds up to exactly 300gb. But in sudo parted -l output I just checked and it does add to 320 like it should. All partitions are shown to be slightly bigger than in gparted GUI. Why is that? | 17:23 |
| asar | k1l_: alright | 17:24 |
| asar | k1l_: whats the best alternative | 17:24 |
| k1l_ | asar: well, generally you dont need to clean your system. that is a bad habbit people get from using windows. | 17:25 |
| alkisg | fukinoodles: it's probably gigabytes vs gibibytes, see the difference in wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte | 17:25 |

| Toxtlo | no, sometimes it takes a little longer to shutdown, but no freezes so far here | 17:35 |
| ahrc333ff | Toxtlo: did you install proprietary drivers or have Ubuntu install then during the initial installation of the OS? | 17:39 |
| Toxtlo | nothing installed so far. Until now I just used the onboard graphics card. When searching the net, there was no hint in any incompatibility of the hardware as the support said. Maybe becvause of ubuntu and grub? Used the automatic update tool from 15.10 to 16.04 | 17:40 |
| Toxtlo | the monitor is not even getting a video signal, there is no bios or post of my mainboard showing up | 17:41 |
| ahrc333ff | Toxtlo: Sot he video card was working on 15.10? Also, did you have proprietary drivers intalled then? And, how are you accessing the computer now. | 17:42 |
| Toxtlo | no, upgraded from 15.10 to 16.04 first (but saw some people having issues after that). Now I wanted to install the graphics card. I removed the card and everything is back to normal | 17:43 |
| Toxtlo | when powering up, there is the "beep" from my mainboard, after 5-10sec (normally I already see ubuntu login now) there is another beep from the card. But no video signal at all | 17:44 |
| Toxtlo | I saw a topic about the "nomodeset" option, can this be the cause, its missing in my cmdline | 17:46 |
| Toxtlo | (but dont wanna break things, so nothing will work anymore, need the computer. :-D) | 17:46 |

| beginnerL | clear | 17:46 |
| yogeshkc | i have an amd graphics processor | 17:47 |
| ale__ | hi, question: can I upgrade 10.04 to 12.04, 10.04 is not LTS ??? | 17:47 |
| ducasse | Toxtlo: if the mainboard won't post, this has nothing to do with grub options. ask in ##hardware. | 17:47 |
| Pici | ale__: 10.04 was an LTS | 17:47 |
| ricksebak | Toxtlo: you can add nomodeset to your grub config on a one-time basis. if it works, fine. and if it doesn't work, just reboot and that part of the config will be gone. | 17:48 |
| Toxtlo | already was in hardware >-> they suggested cmos reset, but after the asus support suspected its because I dont use windows I came here | 17:48 |
| ahrc333ff | Toxtlo: if it's black and beeping from the beginning, it doesn't seem to be an issue with the Ubuntu install. | 17:48 |
| ducasse | Toxtlo: this happens _long_ before ubuntu boots. has nothing to do with the os. | 17:49 |
| ahrc333ff | Toxtlo: do you have enough power going to the card? | 17:49 |
| Toxtlo | y, everyhting so far checked, so I suspected grub or something reading this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/791439/trouble-installing-ubuntu-16-04-since-i-got-gtx-1070 | 17:50 |
| nightowl_ | hello... I'm back with some updates about my micro sd card I was trying to write to about 13 hours ago :) | 17:52 |
| ahrc333ff | Toxtlo: if the issue were with the OS or a driver, then you'd see the boot information probably up until x-server launches. | 17:53 |
| beginnerL | hello, which irc channel should one join to discuss the next release (16.10?) | 17:54 |
| ducasse | beginnerL: #ubuntu+1 | 17:55 |
| Toxtlo | ahrc333ff ok, what would you suggest? :-| | 17:55 |
| ducasse | Toxtlo: is there an updated bios for your mainboard? | 17:56 |
| Toxtlo | already flashed the latest one (2 days ago) | 17:56 |
| ducasse | don't know, this sounds very much like a hardware/firmware problem. | 17:57 |
| Toxtlo | tested the card on another system, working, tested a gtx960 on my system, working, tested all PCIe slots, nothing... its so frustrating and the support only says: compatibility... | 17:57 |
| ahrc333ff | Toxtlo: just so I can be clear here, did you ahve the new Geforce card when you were running 15.10? | 17:57 |
| Toxtlo | no | 17:57 |
| ahrc333ff | And the new card works on a different system? | 17:57 |
| Toxtlo | yes, | 17:57 |
| ahrc333ff | And, it's the screen is black from the moemnt you turn the computer on -- even prior to the boot process? | 17:58 |
| Toxtlo | there isnt even a signal noticed by the monitor | 17:58 |
| Toxtlo | so y, its "black" (or blank in english?) | 17:58 |
| === matt_ is now known as Guest8704 | ||
| ahrc333ff | Toxtlo: Okay, when you tried the other system, was there a different monitor involved? | 17:59 |
| ahrc333ff | What type of connector are you using? | 18:00 |
| === puuska-ct8 is now known as puuska-silent | ||
| Toxtlo | no, same monitor, same cables, hdmi and DVI to VGA adapter (but the latter one I know now does not seem to work because of some conversion problems?) | 18:01 |
| Toxtlo | so hdmi, same monitor, same cables | 18:01 |
| akik | what in gods name is roaraudio and why does it break my audio setup? | 18:03 |
| ricksebak | Totxlo: that still seems like a hardware problem. even if the video card works in another system, perhaps the broken system doesn't have enough power for it? or is incompatible with it in some other way. | 18:03 |
| Toxtlo | both have a 530W psu. its so frustrating... but if its not ubuntu or the grub cmd line I may really have to switch one component | 18:04 |
| ale__ | <Pici>ok, can I make it? from 10.04 to 12.04 | 18:06 |
| ducasse | !eolupgrade | ale__ | 18:10 |
| ubottu | ale__: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 18:10 |
| dellhem | Updated ModemManager to 1.6, and now it can't start.. Any ideas? http://pastebin.com/xwCKNdqT | 18:10 |
| ricksebak | ale__: yes | 18:10 |
| dellhem | I guess "Could not acquire the 'org.freedesktop.ModemManager1' service name" is relevant, but what should I do? | 18:10 |
| naveen_ | hi | 18:11 |
| ricksebak | Toxtlo: does any other OS boot with this video card in this system? | 18:11 |
| Toxtlo | nothing else installed so far | 18:11 |
| ale__ | <ducasse>tnx | 18:11 |
| naveen_ | yes | 18:11 |
| ducasse | dellhem: where did you get it from? | 18:11 |
| OerHeks | dellhem, modemmanager 1.6 is not in our repos | 18:11 |
| OerHeks | so likely something breaks | 18:11 |
| Toxtlo | but when I dont even see the ASUS logo right after power button pressed? :-| | 18:11 |
| ricksebak | Toxtlo: maybe try some other flavors of linux, try freebsd. if any of them work or don't work, you'll have your answer about whether it's a hardware or software problem. | 18:12 |
| ricksebak | Toxtlo: it takes like 20 minutes to try another OS (just in the live USB mode, you don't need to install it). i'd do that before i started swapping hardware. | 18:13 |
| laura_ | hello people | 18:13 |
| laura_ | anyone help me out with xubuntu | 18:13 |
| OerHeks | Toxtlo, " there is the "beep" from my mainboard, ".. hardware isseu, join ##hardware | 18:13 |
| Toxtlo | ok, change boot order to usb first, insert gtx1070 and try live after that? | 18:13 |
| Toxtlo | they could not tell what the two beeps could have been, got very much help there the last days | 18:13 |
| ducasse | Toxtlo: the bios doesn't know you are going to boot ubuntu before the post, it's a hardware/firmware issue. | 18:13 |
| laura_ | my upgrade from xubuntu 15.10 to 16.04 stopped working a minute in, said "system program detected" (something to do with my printer) and quit | 18:14 |
| OerHeks | Toxtlo, check the manual of the mobo for beep codes | 18:14 |
| laura_ | know i try upgrade again it says "not all updates can be installed" and asks to run partial upgrade | 18:14 |
| Toxtlo | this is the normal bootup beep code | 18:14 |
| OerHeks | "The motherboard support said, its a "compatibility issue"" sounds like your mobo is not suited for that racemonster | 18:14 |
| laura_ | but i heard this is bad | 18:14 |
| Toxtlo | the gpu beep code is what made me wonder | 18:14 |
| laura_ | so what do i do? | 18:14 |
| OerHeks | laura_, it is not bad, update, and run pdates again, apt-get update -f | 18:15 |
| laura_ | i already did sudo apt-get update | 18:15 |
| hdon | hi all :) i was using gimp and got into some kind of drag mode and no mouse/key could leave this mode. i couldn't focus on a different window or really do much of anything. so i killed gimp from vt. now my cursor is invisible/hidden. any ideas what command to bring the cursor back? | 18:15 |
| Toxtlo | its a ASUS Z170-A its the same chipset and some forums even use this build, what motherboard would you suggest? | 18:15 |
| laura_ | and it did something | 18:15 |
| hdon | oh it's back now... lol | 18:15 |
| laura_ | now im trying to upgrade again same message appears | 18:15 |
| OerHeks | Toxtlo, join ##hardware for that, not really an ubuntu issue | 18:16 |
| ahrc333ff | Toxtlo: the only thing I can think of at this point is that, although there are similar PSU's, unless the machines are identical it still could be PSU problem. | 18:16 |
| OerHeks | or bad card | 18:16 |
| ahrc333ff | OerHeks: works in a diffc omputer | 18:16 |
| laura_ | DerHeks i already updated | 18:18 |
| laura_ | sudo apt-get update | 18:18 |
| laura_ | but idk what to do next | 18:18 |
| laura_ | apparently theres command to upgrade from terminal | 18:18 |
| laura_ | that fixes this message | 18:18 |
| OerHeks | sudo apt-get upgrade after that? | 18:18 |
| dellhem | ducasse: OerHeks: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/ModemManager/ | 18:19 |
| beginnerL | if you are upgrading between releases, run 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' | 18:19 |
| ducasse | dellhem: then that's where you go for support. | 18:19 |
| OerHeks | dellhem, nice, but modemmanager might have dependencies, that are not met, downgrade that package | 18:19 |
| dellhem | ducasse: Or maybe I'll just chat with someone helpful. | 18:20 |
| bipul | Have anyone know how to install OpneAS2? | 18:21 |
| Toxtlo | OerHeks: There are prebuilds available with the Z170-A and a GTX1070. | 18:21 |
| dellhem | OerHeks: Yeah, probably have to.. You know how long it usually take for stuff like this to be available the right way? | 18:21 |
| ducasse | dellhem: we support packages in the repos, random upgrades break things. | 18:21 |
| Toxtlo | Ok, I think I just have to double check everything and try a cmos reset. Thank you all. :-) | 18:21 |
| laura_ | beginnerL: the upgrade installe wants me to partiallyupgrad | 18:21 |
| OerHeks | dellhem, as it is a LTS release, and that 1.6.0 is out 2 days ago, maybe next release?? | 18:21 |
| dellhem | ducasse: Yeah, sure, but there must be room for discussion in here? | 18:22 |
| OerHeks | Toxtlo, check for bios updates too | 18:22 |
| Toxtlo | have them already | 18:22 |
| OerHeks | read the changelog, may give a clue | 18:22 |
| Toxtlo | no changelog there :-P | 18:23 |
| Toxtlo | but good its not ubuntu. :-D | 18:23 |
| OerHeks | bios without changelog, never heard of that | 18:23 |
| JasonW_ | anyone know if these boxes come with guest additions? https://atlas.hashicorp.com/ubuntu | 18:23 |
| Toxtlo | the changelog said "Improved system stability" | 18:23 |
| dellhem | OerHeks: Through one of the ubuntu repos? | 18:24 |
| ducasse | dellhem: you're going about this the wrong way. if you need a newer modemmanager, then upgrade to 16.10, or ask for an sru of the package. | 18:24 |
| OerHeks | dellhem, yes, back to 1.4 | 18:24 |
| OerHeks | i would not go for 16.10 .. | 18:25 |
| dellhem | OerHeks: I meant if 1.6 will be release through one of them | 18:25 |
| ducasse | me neither, OerHeks | 18:25 |
| dellhem | ducasse: ah, ok.. not really comfortable to be that far ahead :) | 18:25 |
| ducasse | !sru | dellhem this is the supported way | 18:26 |
| ubottu | dellhem this is the supported way: Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates | 18:26 |
| OerHeks | dellhem, likely not this release 16.04.1 .. but you can do a request on launchpad, file a bug for 1.4 and ask when 1.6 will be released, and why you *need* it | 18:26 |
| OerHeks | newer is not always bbetter, it need testing, dependencies must be met, etc | 18:27 |
| beginnerL | dellhem you could always give a try to opensuse tumbleweed, if you absolutely need it. It's a rolling release but updates are minimally tested before being available | 18:28 |
| === test is now known as Guest21767 | ||
| tgm4883 | beginnerL: yes, because changing your entire distro over one issue is a sane way to go about things | 18:29 |
| OerHeks | beginnerL, please stop suggesting other distro for testing | 18:29 |
| OerHeks | makes no sense at all. | 18:30 |
| DarkPsydeLord | Hi! | 18:30 |
| OerHeks | modemmanager 1.6 is out for 2 days .. | 18:31 |
| sslove | beginnerL, no, you may enter, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade for a regular upgrade, between releases the command is sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo do-release-upgrade' or use one of the various guis | 18:32 |

| Guest21767 | hello | 18:35 |
| OerHeks | indeed, This bug was fixed in the package modemmanager - 1.0.0-2ubuntu1.1 | 18:35 |
| Guest21767 | i would like to know a good programming softare for ubuntu | 18:35 |
| beginnerL | sslove: I've been upgrading between the past 5 releases with dist-upgrade and it always worked, but thanks for the correction anyway. | 18:35 |
| OerHeks | !ide | 18:35 |

| Guest21767 | thank you | 18:36 |
| ducasse | beginnerL: why do things the debian way on ubuntu? at least don't teach others to do that. | 18:37 |
| catuca | I am having a hard time installing Ubuntu on my system. It gets stuck while trying to format the partitions. If I try to format it manually, it says the device is busy even though I booted from the Live CD. | 18:38 |
| Guest21767 | how can i find these programs? | 18:38 |
| ikonia | open the software manager and search | 18:38 |
| sslove | beginnerL, um, dist upgrade definitely does not do a release upgrade | 18:38 |
| sslove | beginnerL, u don't even need sudo, just do-release-upgrade is enough if ur system is otherwise up to date | 18:39 |
| warbaque | I prefer sublimetext and atom (and vim of course) | 18:39 |
| ikonia | beginnerL: there is no way you've upgraded between releases with dist-upgrade unless you've been changing the sources by hand | 18:39 |
| warbaque | Guest21767: depends a lot on what you are programming | 18:40 |
| jwr | anyone know when an upgrade to 16.04 should become possible? | 18:40 |
| ducasse | jwr: when it's ready :) | 18:41 |

| ivo34 | hello I am following this tutorial to move my /home partition: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving and i came to this point: cd / && sudo mv /home /old_home && sudo mkdir /home and then its not working and I get this message instead: mv: cannot move «/home» to «/old_home»: device or resource busy | 18:43 |
| ikonia | ivo34: you're running the command from within /old_home | 18:44 |
| ikonia | it can't move the directory while you are in it | 18:44 |
| ivo34 | but | 18:44 |
| jwr | the cd / should have taken care of that | 18:44 |
| ivo34 | true | 18:44 |
| ikonia | I suspect he's not run it properly | 18:44 |
| ikonia | or something else is using it | 18:44 |
| ikonia | eg: a process, like the automounter | 18:44 |
| jwr | lsof | grep /home | 18:45 |
| Ryndaxon | Does anyone happen to use Slack's beta application for Linux? It frequently seems to give me screen artifacts. Does anyone also experience this or is this something wrong on my end? | 18:45 |
| === Guest32761 is now known as elias_a | ||
| jwr | Ryndaxon: I've had various problems with slack on linux, though not that specific problem. I switched to scudcloud and it's been fine. | 18:45 |
| Ryndaxon | I see. I think I've come across that one in the past. May have to take a better look at it. I haven't had any other problems besides the artifacts though. | 18:46 |
| ivo34 | jwr mozilla xchat dropbox processes appear | 18:46 |
| jwr | ivo34: then those are the processes preventing you from moving /home. kill them and try again. | 18:47 |
| ivo34 | jwr them all? | 18:47 |
| jwr | yes | 18:47 |
| === YDU_awayaway is now known as YankDownUnder | ||
| jwr | or gracefully close them if you don't want to kill them, of course. | 18:48 |
| ivo34 | right | 18:48 |
| ivo34 | :-) | 18:48 |
| sslove | jwr, what do u mean? it has been out since april | 18:51 |
| === Agent is now known as Isaj | ||
| === Isaj is now known as Isai | ||
| === Isai is now known as Agent | ||
| jwr | sslove: 16.04 has been out since april. but you can't do an upgrade until 16.04.1, which came out a couple days ago. and apparently you still cannot do an upgrade until a few more things get fixed. | 18:52 |
| \9 | jwr: right, afaik they're still doing some final bug testing | 18:52 |
| jwr | yeah, i'll just wait until it starts prompting me i guess | 18:52 |
| sslove | jwr, i see | 18:53 |
| \9 | should be soon enough anyway | 18:53 |
| \9 | i can't believe that we're already halfway through to 16.10 | 18:54 |
| ivo34 | jwr hello again those applications I could easily close...because they were launched by me but...there are some others still preventing me from moving /home to /old_home | 18:54 |
| \9 | feels like 16.04 released yesterday | 18:54 |
| ivo34 | jwr I hardly know about them... | 18:54 |
| jwr | ivo34: you won't be able to move /home until the `lsof | grep /home` returns nothing. keep running it and killing (or kill -9'ing) whatever you find. | 18:55 |
| ivo34 | jwr zeigeist gvfs mime glib... | 18:55 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: Are you actually logged into the account you're trying to move? | 18:55 |
| ivo34 | yes | 18:55 |
| jwr | ivo34: if you are worried about killing a vital process and breaking something, boot into a liveusb, then move it. | 18:56 |
| ivo34 | YankDownUnder, yes | 18:56 |
| \9 | i would imagine a whole lot of things would be accessing /home... wouldn't it be easier to log off and do it from a tty? | 18:56 |
| \9 | live session would be better yeah | 18:56 |
| ivo34 | I have no cd | 18:56 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: Um...that's not the way to do it...you should be using a completely different account to "move" an account... | 18:56 |
| ivo34 | oh | 18:56 |
| jwr | he's moving /home, not a user account | 18:56 |
| jwr | he or she, i meant. | 18:56 |
| ivo34 | yes | 18:56 |
| \9 | just do it from a live session you'll save yourself a lot of headache | 18:56 |
| ivo34 | I have no live cd | 18:57 |
| \9 | even if you do it from a tty, your login shell will still depend on /home | 18:57 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: Yeah, mate - that's like trying to change the spark plugs on an engine that's running...hmm... | 18:57 |
| \9 | unless you move the user home directory elsewhere | 18:57 |
| jwr | i guess you could set a password for root, then login using a TTY with the root account. | 18:57 |
| theseb | help! install CD gives ERRORS if I try to install ANY desktop......without a desktop it boots to a purple screen with "Ubuntu 16.04" and blinking dots but NEVER finishes from that?!!? help! any chance to save? | 18:57 |
| ivo34 | hey this is the ubuntu tutorial that I am following! | 18:57 |
| ivo34 | it says to do it this way | 18:58 |
| ivo34 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 18:58 |
| YankDownUnder | theseb: Is the CD/DVD clean? Is the CD/DVD drive itself clean? When you burnt the CD/DVD did you have the program check for errors? Was the ISO you downloaded checked for errors? | 18:58 |
| ivo34 | why I cannot move it from root? | 18:59 |
| jwr | ivo34: that tutorial could be improved. it talks about using a liveusb for encrypted filesystems, but it's probably best to use a liveusb whether you are encrypted or not. | 19:00 |
| jwr | you cannot move it from root because of those processes that you see with lsof. | 19:00 |
| ivo34 | I see | 19:01 |
| jwr | you can kill t hem and proceed, set a password for root and then login as root, or use a liveusb. | 19:01 |
| YankDownUnder | ivo34: The article definitely needs improving...you have to be either root, or use a "live" system or use a completely different account, mate...otherwise, you're spinning your wheels...you can't move an account when you're IN the account...hmm... | 19:02 |
| jwr | it's really not hard to set a password for root and then login using that. you'll have what you want in 10 minutes. | 19:02 |
| theseb | YankDownUnder: i didn't check it for errors | 19:03 |
| \9 | though killing the processes might leave the system in an unhealthy state | 19:03 |
| \9 | seems risky to me | 19:03 |
| jwr | it's also not hard to boot from a liveusb, but i guess that's only easy if you have a thumb drive lying around. | 19:03 |
| YankDownUnder | theseb: So do all that first, THEN try again. | 19:03 |
| ivo34 | jwr I do have an ubuntu live...but it is ancient! | 19:04 |
| jwr | doesn'tmatter what version it is | 19:04 |
| jwr | you could boot up a freebsd livecd and do what you want. the OS and version doesn't matter. | 19:04 |
| \9 | unless he has zfs? | 19:04 |
| jwr | well yeah | 19:04 |
| ivo34 | ubuntu 9.10 and suse linux 10.3 | 19:05 |
| jwr | unless you are using a somewhat exotic filesystem (zfs), either of those will work. | 19:05 |
| theseb | YankDownUnder: ok good idea thanks | 19:06 |
| ivo34 | anyway at the point I am in the tutorial I have two /home partitions now | 19:06 |
| ivo34 | I should somehow...differenciate them before booting I guess | 19:06 |
| jwr | just ls each of them and see which is which. | 19:06 |
| \9 | i don't understand why does the tutorial recommend using diff to compare them | 19:06 |
| \9 | and not just use --checksum with rsync | 19:06 |
| \9 | which does the checking for you | 19:07 |
| ivo34 | I skipped that because the new partition was empty... | 19:07 |
| YankDownUnder | I don't understand why it's not implicit that the user be using a different account... | 19:07 |
| jwr | i don't understand why the tutorial didn't suggest using a livecd, which would've helped ivo34. it clearly needs some work. | 19:07 |
| ivo34 | but run the rsync three times | 19:07 |
| ivo34 | the last time only wallch files changed | 19:08 |
| \9 | probably would've been best to use a live session from the get go | 19:08 |
| ivo34 | what about the root solution? | 19:09 |
| \9 | i find it risky to just kill system processes left and right | 19:09 |
| ivo34 | someone suggested to add a password and change to root user? | 19:09 |
| YankDownUnder | Use "dd" drive-to-drive, re-size partitions as required, disconnect and swap old/new drives, re-install grub and then *BINGO* it's done...I do this stuff in like less than an hour for clients...egads... | 19:09 |
| jwr | oh, single user mode will do it | 19:10 |
| \9 | hmm that could work | 19:10 |
| ivo34 | ? | 19:10 |
| ivo34 | single user mode? | 19:10 |
| jwr | http://tarunlinux.blogspot.com/2014/02/ubuntu-1204-grub-to-boot-into-single.html | 19:10 |
| ivo34 | but we are a team arent we? | 19:10 |
| \9 | :D | 19:11 |
| jwr | that says 12.04 but it'll work for other versions. | 19:11 |
| fukinoodles | If I'm reinstalling Ubuntu and have a separate home partition should I format the root partition during install? | 19:11 |
| \9 | YankDownUnder: dd just does a dumb copy, rsync can do error checking | 19:11 |
| jwr | ivo34: if you login using single user mode, you will be able to complete the steps you want. by definition, there won't be any mozilla or xchat or whatever processes blocking you. | 19:12 |
| YankDownUnder | \9: I must have been doing the wrong thing for the past 17 years...my bad... | 19:12 |
| \9 | hmm i'm actually not too sure | 19:13 |
| jwr | ivo34: setting a password for root was my suggestion, but that's basically the same idea as single user mode, just not as good of an idea. | 19:13 |
| ivo34 | jwr but i guess I need to undo the fstab modifications first? | 19:13 |
| jwr | livecd or single user mode, for sure. | 19:13 |
| fukinoodles | Hmmmmmrandi | 19:14 |
| jwr | you can undo those modifications, or not. if you boot up with broken fstab things, ubuntu will just ask you if you want to skip mounting the broken things. you can skip them, and it's fine. | 19:14 |
| ivo34 | jwr but it is not broken... | 19:15 |
| ivo34 | I guess I should go back to point 3 | 19:15 |
| ivo34 | to get the duplicated home mounted at media | 19:15 |
| \9 | YankDownUnder: reading about this a bit more, i think dd knows to halt on error but then it would have to start all over again | 19:15 |
| ducasse | ivo34: was old /home on a separate partition? | 19:16 |
| OerHeks | after DD, always use ' sync ' | 19:16 |
| jwr | ivo34: step 1 of that tutorial should really be to boot a livecd or boot in single user mode. once you do either of those, all of the steps on the tutorial will work. | 19:16 |
| ivo34 | I see | 19:17 |
| jwr | note that if you use single user mode, don't use gedit, use nano, but otherwise the directions will work. | 19:17 |
| \9 | single user mode is probably the easiest yeah | 19:17 |
| ivo34 | anyway... booting a live cd would not mount host partitions... :-) | 19:17 |
| \9 | you can mount them manually | 19:17 |
| ducasse | ivo34: if i\ old /home was on a separate partition, just edit fstab and reboot. nothing to move. | 19:18 |
| ivo34 | separate partition and hdd | 19:18 |
| ivo34 | I moved the /home to another hdd | 19:19 |
| ivo34 | now I have one hdd with / and /home and another hdd with /home | 19:19 |
| ducasse | ivo34: then just edit fstab and reboot. | 19:19 |
| jwr | and also rsync the contents of the old one into the new one | 19:19 |
| jwr | preferably prior to rebooting | 19:19 |
| ducasse | he's already done that, hasn't he? | 19:20 |
| ivo34 | yes | 19:20 |
| ivo34 | I am at the moving home into old home point | 19:20 |
| ducasse | ivo34: not necessary on a separate partition, you just don't mount the old one in fstab. | 19:21 |
| ivo34 | so now I put the live ubuntu rancid in the dvd drive...and reboot | 19:21 |
| nicknight | hello all what is the difference between xterm and normal terminal in ubuntu ? | 19:22 |
| \9 | nicknight: xterm is an ancient terminal emulator | 19:22 |
| ivo34 | oh | 19:22 |
| ducasse | ivo34: why a live cd? what are you going to do? _it's not necessary_ :) | 19:22 |
| ivo34 | i see i need to comment the old /home in fstab first | 19:22 |
| Ryndaxon | the 'normal' terminal you're referring to is gnome-terminal if I remember correctly | 19:23 |
| Birchy | nicknight: gnome-terminal is fancy, and supports transparency | 19:23 |
| Ryndaxon | they're both terminal emulators | 19:23 |
| ivo34 | rename the old home | 19:23 |
| ivo34 | I cannot do it while I am logged it | 19:23 |
| ivo34 | in* | 19:23 |
| ducasse | ivo34: comment old home, enter new home in fstab, reboot, finished. | 19:23 |
| nicknight | which isbest ?? I am using normal termal it's hanged xterm is working normal terminal not opening | 19:24 |
| \9 | ivo34: you don't need to move the old home since it's already detached from the root file system | 19:24 |
| ivo34 | but there is something fishy here | 19:24 |
| ducasse | ivo34: forget about 'mv /home /oldhome'. | 19:24 |
| ivo34 | what about the "mount point" mentioned in the tutorial? | 19:24 |
| ivo34 | thats the part I didn't quite understand... | 19:25 |
| ducasse | ivo34: the tutorial does not apply to you, it assumes /home is part of / | 19:25 |
| ivo34 | the placeholder | 19:25 |
| ivo34 | oh | 19:25 |
| ivo34 | nah | 19:26 |
| nicknight | Birchy: \9 ?? | 19:26 |
| === spacegoat is now known as ergot | ||
| \9 | well if your normal terminal does not open then you have a problem | 19:26 |
| ivo34 | I remember when I installed the system i used different partitions despite being both system and home in the same hdd | 19:26 |
| * \9 dons captain obvious outfit | 19:26 | |
| ulyzze | Why when I try to mount a usb drive with the command line I get: | 19:26 |
| ulyzze | $ sudo mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/ | 19:26 |
| ulyzze | mount: block device /dev/sdd1 is write-protected, mounting read-only | 19:26 |
| nicknight | I am having dell vostro 15 intel 13 and using ubuntu 16.04 nor mal terminal not opening ...my laptop configuration good enough for ubuntu 16.04? ans among xterm and terminal which is best ? | 19:27 |
| ducasse | ivo34: 'df' will tell you. | 19:27 |
| \9 | ulyzze: it's probably write protected | 19:27 |
| Birchy | nicknight: reset the gnome-terminal configuration and see if it changes | 19:27 |
| ulyzze | but when I'm mounting it with the GUI Disks it's writable | 19:27 |
| Birchy | also, try launching gnome-terminal from another terminal | 19:28 |
| dellhem | OerHeks: About modemmanager 1.0.0-2ubuntu1.1 that supposedly resolved the bug, isn't that a lot older than the bug itself? | 19:28 |
| ivo34 | ducasse yes: sda1 / sda2 /home | 19:28 |
| \9 | ulyzze: try use "-o rw" in the mount command to specify read and write | 19:28 |
| ivo34 | so I dont need the placeholder do I? | 19:28 |
| ducasse | ivo34: ok, good. then the rest is easy. | 19:28 |
| nicknight | Birchy: reset how? | 19:28 |
| ducasse | ivo34: no placeholder, no. | 19:29 |
| nicknight | Birchy: also please tel my laptop good enough? | 19:29 |
| ulyzze | \9: $ sudo mount -o rw /dev/sdd1 /mnt/ | 19:29 |
| ulyzze | mount: block device /dev/sdd1 is write-protected, mounting read-only | 19:29 |
| ulyzze | it's the same | 19:29 |

| pedrob | Hello there. I'm experiencing a bug with Ubuntu 16.04. I wonder if anyone here could help me | 19:54 |
| YankDownUnder | pedrob: Please clarify - state your issue, someone will answer. | 19:54 |
| pedrob | YankDownUnder: Oh, ok, thanks | 19:55 |
| === Brunost_ is now known as brunost | ||
| pedrob | So, this bug has happened for the second time now. I installed ubuntu 16.04 on my machine. And the first time it runs it works fine | 19:55 |
| pedrob | But then after I restarted the system, only a blank pink screen appears | 19:55 |
| pedrob | and it doesn't load | 19:56 |
| pedrob | or sometimes the Ubuntu logo appears loading but it never goes forward | 19:56 |
| pedrob | I can access Gru by pressing "esc" when this screen appears | 19:56 |
| pedrob | last time I erased the system and installed it again, and wanted to check whether it was going to happen again and it did | 19:56 |
| YankDownUnder | pedrob: After when you first installed the system, did you get all the updates and did you install "third party drivers"? | 19:56 |
| pedrob | the only additional thing I did both times was installing Gnome3 | 19:57 |
| pedrob | YankDownUnder: By getting all the updates, you mean doing "sudo apt-get update? | 19:57 |
| YankDownUnder | pedrob: Best thing to do - after your "fresh installation" is to get all the updates - and as well, install all the third party drivers required for your system. After that, well, if all is smooth sailing, install what you wish... | 19:57 |
| YankDownUnder | pedrob: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" => but the "Software Centre" is there to tell you what's required...so you have the choice of using the GUI or doing it by hand in the terminal/console - whichever you feel the most comfortable with. | 19:59 |
| pedrob | YankDownUnder: I see, and is there anyway I can do it now or do I have to erase the whole system again and install Ubuntu? | 19:59 |
| pedrob | I see, I did sudo apt-get update, but I didn't know about third party drivers | 19:59 |
| pedrob | YankDownUnder: According to a friend, since I have an intel graphics card, third party drivers don't exist | 20:00 |
| YankDownUnder | pedrob: If you're comfortable with the terminal, in order to properly check for "extra" drivers, type: sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall | 20:01 |
| pedrob | YankDownUnder: I see, and in order to access the terminal, I press first Esc to access the GNU GRUB, ad then what can I do? | 20:02 |
| YankDownUnder | pedrob: Simply just go step by step, one step at a time, make sure you have a solid system, THEN do as you wish afterwards, hmm? And "according to a friend" doesn't necessarily mean that your system doesn't have anything that might require an extra driver. | 20:02 |

| sslove | ZdS34, i've had bad luck and many failed installs with various bootable disk creators, but i recently had good luck with the SUSE disk creator | 20:04 |
| ZdS34 | Sorry, an error occurred and it was not possible to install the bootloader at the specified location. | 20:04 |
| ZdS34 | i used rufus | 20:05 |

| YankDownUnder | pedrob: Read though this page - you might find your answer: https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/bugs | 20:05 |

| ZdS34 | i'm installing it on my pc with win 10 already installed | 20:06 |
| ZdS34 | unfortunately i don't have a cdrom so i'm using a usb stick | 20:06 |
| ZdS34 | the problem is grub | 20:06 |
| ZdS34 | when the windows states the grub cannot be installed i have 3 possibility. change the device to install grub | 20:07 |
| ZdS34 | continue without bootloader and quit | 20:07 |
| ZdS34 | none of them work | 20:07 |
| YankDownUnder | ZdS34: Disable "secure boot" in the BIOS and try again... | 20:08 |
| ZdS34 | it seems the installation is stucking and i'm not able to quit it. i already checked the iso and everything seems fine | 20:08 |
| ZdS34 | already disabled secureboot and fastboot | 20:08 |
| ZdS34 | on a virtual machiine without windows everything is working :D | 20:09 |

| ubuNeedsHelp | Hello | 20:11 |
| ZdS34 | never had this kind of problem but i'm sure secure boot is disabled | 20:12 |
| ZdS34 | maybe is something related to dual boot? | 20:12 |
| ubuNeedsHelp | I have Windows 7 Bootloader. And it has 3 options. 1)Windows7 2)Windows8.1 3)Remix OS. May i Install ubuntu without losing my windows 7 Bootloader? Thanks. | 20:12 |
| YankDownUnder | ZdS34: Sure and absolutely positive - two different things... | 20:12 |
| ZdS34 | is there any log where i can check what's happening? i'm curios abouth that | 20:14 |
| jookiyaya | what is the reason people use xfs in linux over ext* | 20:14 |
| sslove | ZdS34, i've actually had similar problems, install not working with secure boot off, so i turned it back on and installation worked, ubuntu is signed so works with secureboot as well, have u tried that way? | 20:15 |
| ZdS34 | ops to be honest no :) everywhere is written disable secure boot | 20:15 |

| Atlas_ | can someone answer a question for me about virtual machines via PM pls? | 23:07 |
| SchrodingersScat | !pm | Atlas_ you get more help if you ask it in channel, prevents you getting paired up with a less than desirable. | 23:08 |
| ubottu | Atlas_ you get more help if you ask it in channel, prevents you getting paired up with a less than desirable.: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. | 23:08 |
| k1l_ | Atlas_: you can ask in here if its ubuntu related | 23:08 |
| Atlas_ | sorry guys got a bunch of PMs, was wondering if I run windows on VM in ubuntu will I be vulnerable to windows rootkits? | 23:09 |
| SchrodingersScat | on the VM | 23:09 |
| Atlas_ | yeah | 23:09 |
| ARIES1b | ayyy | 23:09 |
| tgm4883 | Atlas_: running windows in a VM on linux doesn't make your windows install any safer | 23:09 |
| SchrodingersScat | sorry, I mean, yes, on the vm it'll be vulnerable, it shouldn't touch your ubuntu though, unless it can break out ;( or if you share directories for it to mess with | 23:09 |
| Atlas_ | no I sandbox my VMs | 23:10 |
| Atlas_ | Thanks guys, appreciate the help :) | 23:11 |

| OverCoder | Hi everyone | 23:30 |
| bprompt | allo | 23:30 |
| OverCoder | Okay so I made this website https://repogen-microdroid.c9users.io/ , It simply generates the sources.list for apt, but then, do you guys think I should email the staffs of ubuntu.com and see if they push it as a part of their website? | 23:31 |
| OverCoder | I mean at first that was planned to be a separate website, but then why? let's be part of the ubuntu.com itself | 23:31 |
| OverCoder | repogen.ubuntu.com, I guess | 23:32 |

| datahead8888 | Is it best to configure /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades only to look for lts releases I assume? | 23:51 |
| sslove | datahead8888, make sure uv fully upgraded ur 12 first, in order to avoid most problems | 23:51 |
| k1l_ | datahead8888: yes | 23:51 |
| sslove | datahead8888, i assume u mean 12.04 | 23:52 |
| datahead8888 | I just ran all available updates for 12 last night | 23:52 |

| sslove | you're 2 LTS releases behind now, will u update 14 to 16 as well? | 23:53 |
| datahead8888 | I had figured I would first upgrade to 14 then see if it was less of a hassle to install the latest version of the Cegui library | 23:53 |
| dax | not like it matters, 14.04 is supported until 2019 | 23:53 |
| datahead8888 | I'd then read up on 16 and decide if it's good to upgrade now or not | 23:53 |
| datahead8888 | But being on 12 has been causing me hassles for certain | 23:54 |
| datahead8888 | Ubuntu 12 has outdated repositories as far as I know, which makes compiling programs a hassle at times | 23:54 |
| k1l_ | datahead8888: well, it got the softwareversions from 2012. so that is no wonder that todays programs might want different depencies | 23:55 |
| datahead8888 | Yes, it is well past time for me to upgrade. It was a little bit of a hassle backing up a large number of files from my hard drive first. | 23:55 |
