[00:16] look like this : [00:17] 1.191.147.162 91-191-147-162.IRCz.fr [00:17] 91.191.147.163 91-191-147-163.eXolia.net [00:17] 91.191.147.164 91-191-147-164.Dofia.net [00:17] 91.191.147.165 91-191-147-165.eXolia.info [00:17] kroSoft: don't mass paste. [00:17] some vhost to use it in psybnc [00:17] kroSoft: contact your VPS provider to see if they have rDNS for the IPs. if they do, ask them how to configure it for your VPS. If they don't, then you can't. [00:17] kroSoft: what you call a vHost is actually called "Reverse DNS" [00:17] sorry for the mass paste :( [00:19] the provider vps give me one reverser dns [00:19] my ip is : IPv4 [00:19] 92.222.88.1 [00:19] how many IPs you get and whether you can do rDNS on them is between you and your IP provider (i.e. your VPS host in this case) [00:20] my reverse dns is : Reverse DNS [00:20] 1.ip-92-222-88.eu [00:22] dax [00:22] I am a beginner, I did not understand your question ..

[00:27] glitchd: maybe it's in a hibernated state [00:27] !+1 | beanz [00:27] I heard that you could just install your dock, then make sure metacity is installed, and then turn metacity on, and that should do it. Is this correct? [00:27] !ubuntu+1 | beanz [00:27] beanz: Yakkety Yak is the codename for Ubuntu 16.10 - Support only in #ubuntu+1 [00:27] #ubuntu+1 for that beanz [00:27] EriC^^, nah i already ran into and solved that problem [00:27] glitchd: try mounting it from the terminal and see any errors you get [00:27] EriC^^, you have to restart from windows 10 and select linux at grub and it should work [00:28] EriC^^, no it mounts fine once im in linux [00:28] EriC^^, but refuses to automount at login [00:28] glitchd: what command are you using? [00:29] are you mounting from the filemanager? [00:29] EriC^^, im on my desktop, xubuntu [00:29] EriC^^, yes [00:29] try gvfs-mount -d /dev/sdxY from the terminal [00:29] ubuntu 16.04 with xubuntu manager [00:30] hello, i installed new version of firefox and its nolonger running [00:31] EriC^^, lol this is super strange...now its all of a sudden just not showing up..

[00:38] keakaha: software has nothing to do with the motherboard BIOS [00:39] EriC^^: that was spanish. I should know. I speak portuguese :) [00:39] rahtgaz: aha [00:39] I guess it doesnt. but my notebook was fine. is fine actualyy.. it just wont go to bios menu, it goes directly to grub [00:39] keakaha: as far as acessing the bios from initial boot that is [00:40] EriC^^, ok so im back and still confused lol [00:40] glitchd: still hasn't showed up? [00:40] EriC^^, so i went back into 10, everything was fine. i did a full shutdown of the system then booted back into linux. [00:41] glitchd: doesn't that utilize the hibernation? [00:41] EriC^^, its here but its till giving errors when trying to boot it [00:41] EriC^^, i read up on it a lil earlier, the way that windows 10 handles power stuff is like this. [00:41] Soo. Trying to install Ubuntu (I've done it before). My internal pcie ssd is not found, and the only drive that shows is the usb I'm installing from. [00:42] glitchd: try restarting instead of shutting down [00:42] EriC^^, when u shutdown it puts the hard drive into a hibernation type state [00:42] yeah [00:42] EriC^^, when u reboot it actually cuts power to the hd [00:42] EriC^^, but here is where im confused [00:42] keakaha: it might be set to a fast boot mode ... which would not allow much time to press the proper key to enter bios ... you might need to reset the bios settings on the motherboard ... but on a laptop, well good luck [00:42] What are some lightweight web browsers that have flash player and adblock? Firefox is bloated trash and even Chromium is slow. [00:43] I booted into try. And the disk isn't showing when I fdisk -l. Any help? [00:43] EriC^^, when i restarted and booted into linux the win partition wouldnt show up [00:43] glitchd: must have been a one time error [00:43] with the file manager [00:43] glitchd: See: https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/kb/920730 . Make sure hibernation is disabled ?? [00:45] EriC^^, i think my next attempt is going to be boot back into windows and do a restart then select linux in grub and see if it shows up this time, maybe it was a one time error.. [00:46] EriC^^, on the other hand, i may just leave it. i never boot into windows as it is anyways.. [00:46] EriC^^, even to manage my ipod and such i use a windows 7 vm lol [00:46] i only upgraded it to check it out, and to get it before they start charging for it [00:47] EriC^^, ^^ [00:47] :D [00:47] EriC^^, yea i dont even want to reboot again, im just gonna say fuck it and leave it like it is. [00:48] hi, i am having trouble getting pia vpn to work with network manager i would really appreciate some help [00:48] thanks tex nick. i did a hard reset on desktop. I wast willing to do it on a laptop. thx anyway [00:48] EriC^^, Bashing-om, thx for the intended help, have a good one gents [00:49] glitchd: no problem, you too [00:50] EriC^^, on second thought, this is just now happening since i upgraded to 16.04 [00:50] EriC^^, this wasnt happening in 15. [00:50] 10 [00:50] 15.10* [00:50] try restarting windows, worth a shot [00:51] EriC^^, already tried that 3 times, 2 restarts and shutdown [00:51] EriC^^, restarts make it not show up, shutdowns make it unaccessible [00:51] glitchd: ok try restarting one last time [00:52] then if it doesn't show up try gvfs-mount -d /dev/sdxY [00:52] EriC^^, im also thinking that maybe i need to reinstall ntfs-3g? but i will boot back into it and restart it and get back in here and let u all know whats what. [00:53] EriC^^, brb [00:56] EriC^^, we have success. [00:56] glitchd: great :) [00:56] EriC^^, it must of been a one time error of sorts [00:57] EriC^^, glad it wasnt anything more than a few reboots to get it right [00:57] if I use ufw does it's rules persist after reboot? [00:57] its* [00:58] !ufw | Trinity see here maybe [00:58] Trinity see here maybe: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo [01:00] glitchd: yeah [01:01] Trinity, i just found this info on that subject, [01:01] Trinity, when you have the set of rules you want you can save the rules using iptables-save and then run iptables-restore pointing it to the save file as a startup script [01:02] Trinity, but no, it doesnt save rules between reboot by default [01:10] (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ResizeEncryptedPartitions) wish me luck [01:11] good moring [01:11] named works now there were a couple more files missing from the working config I copied [01:13] How do i completely get rid of systemd, and replace it with what there was before?

So in this monit config I used "service apache2 start" but this software threw an error "Program does not exist: 'service'". I tested the "/etc/init.d/apache2 stop". I did this before adding it to the monit config. I just ran it. This seemed to return a success message "Stopping web server apache2" but the service continued to run.

[04:52] :D [04:57] hay [05:03] Hi, how can i find out why my system stopped responding on a laptop lid open\close ? [05:03] Nothing happening. I'd like it to go to suspend when the laptop lid's going close [05:04] I checked suspend mode via pressing power button->suspend. It does ok. But not with lid [05:07] hi, i'm looking how to server an irc server behind tor hidden service, any ideas? I already have setup the irc server it is working, what I would like to do is use my .onion address to connect to my own irc server. [05:10] Hi, "Precise Pangolin" has troubles on one of my Computer, it resizes gnome-terminal windown very slow , top shows Xorg at 95+ %..., how do i fix this ? [05:13] costa: that's not an ubuntu specific question, you might try asking in ##networking :) [05:14] Tex_Nick: hi, i'm using irssi for ubuntu, i think maybe some config with the irc client can help out. [05:17] costa: irssi, irc, tor & onion routing are NOT ubuntu related, so please ask elsewhere :) [05:19] Tex_Nick: Are you sure? just kidding. thanks and bye.

[05:38] rajivmars: ubuntu version? [05:39] lotuspsychje: 16.04 [05:39] rajivmars: fully up to date to latest? [05:39] lotuspsychje: yes. [05:39] rajivmars: have you tried launching nautilus from another user? [05:40] remove ~/.config/nautilus ~/.gconf/apps/nautilus and try again [05:41] lotuspsychje: no. i have not created other users. [05:41] rajivmars: try what OerHeks suggest first [05:43] im not user ubuntu lol but i like this channel [05:43] OerHeks: it says "remove command not found". [05:44] sure it will not find 'try again'also [05:44] rm [05:44] instead remove. [05:46] OerHeks: yes i am sure. it is not find anything like that. [05:47] rajivmars: does it launch on gksu nautilus? [05:48] does top give an instance for nautilus, and/or zombie [05:48] if not, then you have an frankenstein linux, hacked maybe? [05:49] OerHeks: when i am tryin 'rm' instead of 'remove', it saye this: "rm: cannot remove '/home/rajivmars/.config/nautilus': Is a directory [05:49] rm: cannot remove '/home/rajivmars/.gconf/apps/nautilus': No such file or directory" [05:50] rajivmars: when did nautilus start to fail? after an update? [05:52] lotuspsychje: no. it was working fine. after working with it, i left the computer. when i came after 10minutes, it is not working afterwards. [05:52] rajivmars: did you try a reboot yet? [05:52] lotuspsychje: no [05:52] rajivmars: go ahead and come back please [05:52] lotuspsychje: ok. [05:52] rm -rf would work [06:01] lotuspsychje: after reboot it is working. but the computer was not able to reboot from the gui. i had to reboot it from the terminal by using the command "sudo shutdown -r now". why was thi happened? do you have any idea? [06:04] lotuspsychje: after reboot it is working. but the computer was not able to reboot from the gui. i had to reboot it from the terminal by using the command "sudo shutdown -r now". why was this happened? do you have any idea?

[06:13] rajivmars, yes, but i have no clue what has happened. [06:14] OerHeks. ok. thans for help. [06:19] Hey, may be a stupid question. in which file can I add additional options to turn my screen off when inactive. I'd like to have an option for 2 and/or 3 hours to prevent it turning off in the middle of longer videos. (i know if i play natively it should prevent it, but in the chrome browser not so much) [06:20] I should say, i would like to add it to the menu, as a bit of a learning opportunity, not just config it from cli but happy to look at that too. [06:25] Snowie: check screen and power settings is Settings? [06:28] abhinav: longest timeout in the menu is 1hr. would like 2 or 3 hours instead. [06:29] I've seen the same fix be suggested on 8 different threads on 5 different forums spanning several distros, for unrelated issues. The only thing they have in common is that someone suggested bash :(){ :|: & };: as a fix. What does it do, and how is it the solution to so many unrelated issues? [06:29] currently looking at dconf editor but not finding the power options just yet, will see. [06:30] monsterdemon: It's a forkbomb. It's not a solution to anything, but will freeze your computer until you reboot. [06:30] monsterdemon: I'm not sure but you could ask in #bash as from what your saying it relates to it directly. [06:30] Flannel: oh, so it's a troll. [06:31] theres a #bash? [06:31] i thought bash was part of linux distros [06:31] Snowie: yes. Equivalent of telling you that "alt-f4 gets you a faster computer" or whatever things middle schoolers do these days. [06:32] it's its own shell that used in alot of distros, even Unix, but it's its own application. [06:32] monsterdemon: bash is a program that many linuxes use as a shell. [06:33] Flannel: my favourite non-destructive one was whenever someone asked "how do i..." the answer was "press f1" [06:34] cron.allow=incron.allow? [06:35] oh, okay [06:35] can i install bash on windows? [06:36] and if I can, will the fork bomb work on windows then? === monsterdemon is now known as fukking-demon [06:40] k1l_, hey im back with a new problem lol...help? === fukking-demon is now known as monsterdemon [06:41] k1l_, this is more aesthetic than a function causing problem [06:42] cron and incron the same?

I jsut want my screen to turn off and my session to lock after 3 hours. [06:50] Snowie: you can use xset to configure that directly [06:52] ducasse: thanks ill look into it. [06:54] ducasse: is that still going to be seen by unity though? ie, if i set with xset, will unity be able to see it and trigger a session lock also? [06:54] Snowie: xset applies directly to the x server [06:56] hello [06:56] anyone have a clue why the clock is whiping settings as soon as i close the gui? [06:57] I have a question that is a cross between windows and ubuntu. I am using x2go client to connect from windows to lubuntu. I cannot find any way to open multiple connections to different lubuntu servers. when I open a connection, I cannot connect to another machine until I disconnect from the first one. [06:58] (and x2go client crashes a lot, but this is another matter) [07:00] ducasse: i'll take that as a yes, thanks. [07:01] Snowie: yes, it should override whatever the gui does :) [07:02] MaxFrames: never used x2go, but can't you run several instances of the client? [07:02] I've got to try it [07:03] ducasse: what i am asking though is if the gui will then see the screen turn off, to then follow the lock screen rules set in the unity gui [07:04] Snowie: screen lock is usually handled by a separate piece of software, so no. you could probably use something like xautolock to do that. [07:05] er... yes, it seems that I can run multiple instances of the client [07:05] clumsy, though :/ [07:06] MaxFrames: sorry, only suggestion i've got. i don't know how well-maintained it is, you could put in a feature request. [07:07] uh oh [07:08] I take it back.... I can run multiple instances, but as soon as I connect to a machine from instance #2, the session on instance #1 freezes! [07:08] What's wrong with just VNC? ...I'll stick to using what's worked forever and a day... [07:08] slow as hell [07:09] and complicated to configure so that you can seemlessly go from the logon screen to the desktop [07:09] seamlessly [07:09] x2go creates a SSH tunnel, per instance, so i guess you need to do something [07:10] try #x2go ?? [07:10] yes, I didn't know there was a channel [07:10] me 2, just found it [07:15] if there was a better way to get a remote desktop on ubuntu from windows, I'd gladly try it [07:16] for windows to osx, I've settled on realvnc, works well [07:16] maybe the latest version works well on ubuntu too === cisco is now known as Guest21198 [07:22] Утро [07:28] <__hell__> hello [07:28] <__hell__> is there any one [07:30] l === jatt is now known as Guest41018 === jeremy_ is now known as Guest27824 [07:41] hello,anyone?

[10:21] okay so, I tried installing gnome-bluetooth on xubuntu in an attempt to fix my mouse. [10:22] I ended up removing it, but now I have two different bluetooth managers and two different time/calendar programs in the system tray?... [10:23] hi! [10:23] ciao [10:23] ciao scuola :). I would like to report an alleged bug on uptime(1), or an error in the manual [10:25] from Ubuntu 14.04, `man uptime` says that command displays "how many users are currently logged on" [10:25] but it is not actually true: it seems instead to be the number of users "ever connected to the system", during the uptime [10:25] where else can this error be reported? [10:27] so, if the intent was to display the *actual* number of users, it is a bug [10:27] if instead the intent was to display the number of users ever connected since the system has gone up, it is an error in the manual [10:27] rockyh: Usually if you post a bug to a linux-distro specific bug system, they'll handle reporting to the appropriate upstream project. [10:28] guzzlefry: ok [10:29] guzzlefry: again, uptime(1) says to send bug reports to ⟨procps@freelists.org⟩ [10:29] do you suggest this way or do you know a better way for Ubuntu? [10:29] rockyh: run "w" after running "uptime" - do the numbers match? [10:29] rockyh: "w" shows who is currently connected - and matches uptime output here [10:31] popey: the numbers match and it is 5 === yuyueshihaoren1 is now known as yuyueshihaoren [10:31] while the actual number of users is 2 [10:31] now [10:31] rockyh: I just closed one session and the number went down, so I don't believe you're right in your analysis of the "bug" [10:31] (i.e. it aint a bug" [10:31] s/"/)/ [10:31] rockyh: it doesn't mean number of actual physical users connected [10:32] popey: i wasn't following anything [10:32] necrophcodr: you trying to do this without sudo? [10:33] popey: if you can suggest a better test, I'll do it [10:33] rockyh: a better test for what? I just proved it's not a bug by closing a session and the number goes down. [10:34] I just connected to the system from another terminal; number of users in uptime has increased to 6 [10:34] so, ok. It is not the number of actual physical users. But so, what is? [10:35] rockyh: it's showing how many logged in sessions there are. Not plain number of users. One user can have multiple sessions. === sparklyballs_2 is now known as Sparklyballs [10:36] ok. But if nor who neither w show these 5 users (they just show 2 users), is there a way to see them? [10:36] they're sessions [10:36] each user has more than one session [10:36] or, can have rather. [10:37] rockyh: as an example, i'm logged in over ssh running tmux with two shells inside - that's three sessions, one for tmux and one for each shell. [10:37] same - e.g. http://paste.ubuntu.com/21877373/ [10:37] multiple sessions for one user === yuyueshihaoren1 is now known as yuyueshihaoren [10:40] popey: ok, but your sessions are all listed in w [10:41] this is my situation: [10:41] http://paste.ubuntu.com/21877593/ [10:42] rockyh: they are on that machine, but not on others [10:43] rockyh: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21877761/ [10:43] popey: you are meaning "the sessions" [10:44] I launched w in that machine, so it should have showed all the 5 sessions in my case [10:48] rockyh: how sessions are handled/display is probably quite different from 14.04 to 16.04 because of the transition to systemd [10:48] popey: yes, without sudo, running as a normal user with no special privileges [10:48] that was the idea anyway [10:48] ducasse: so maybe popey is using 16.04 ... ? [10:49] sorry for my long discussion; the fact is that there are some ... "stealth" sessions in my system and I would like to see them in any way [10:49] i was running it as `fakechroot fakeroot debootstrap --arch=amd64 "$VERSION" / http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/` where version might be precise,trusty, or xenial [10:51] rockyh: my guess is his first paste is from a systemd system and the second is not. my system looks like his first paste, i'm on 16.04. [10:52] got it [10:52] I am running 14.04 as you remember [10:52] rockyh: 16.04, yes [10:53] they print in different ways the number of users [10:53] evidently [10:56] just as a marginal note, if I run w, who and uptime with sudo I obtain the same results [10:58] rockyh: not the number, the difference is in how the sessions are listed, i would think.

[11:05] Authy works if you use Chrome or Chromium [11:05] Or anything based on them [11:05] I'd rather have a dedicated program or terminal-based [11:06] it's just simple cryptography after all, right?

[11:58] lucyfx: now run synaptic and it says in the status bar that its 70k packages total, but if only x86_64 choosen - its 45k. Since this is multilib, the 45k is pretty much duplicate-free proper number. The 54k on your system should be accurate. Thanks!

I'm trying to figure out what the best solution would be for capturing a network video stream (a TV program) over a longer time. So far I know that this could be done using VLC, MEncoder and mplayer. [13:11] The problem is that the stream's connection sometimes drops, so I need a solution which automatically reconnects and doesn't abort writing the current output file. [13:12] oh sorry [13:12] should have used pastebin [13:12] Is that possible using command line VLC? [13:12] Neomex: ok, ss parted /dev/sda unit s print [13:13] the command is ss? and we are going back to livecd? [13:13] no i mean to screenshot :) [13:13] lunixc128: yes, cvlc [13:13] ah, k :) [13:13] yes liveusb [13:13] Will it automatically reconnect or do I have to add a parameter? [13:13] this is the laptop model if thats relevant [13:13] http://www.acer.com/ac/en/IN/content/model/NX.MVMSI.035 [13:14] anyone? [13:15] Cooler: do you depend on some usb device for boot?

[13:15] how do i know which kernel files to download http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-yakkety/ ?

(default disabled) [13:16] joelio, 16.04 [13:16] But can this parameter also be added in the case of MMS streams? [13:16] akik, not sure [13:17] Cooler: usually usb 3.0 ports are blue [13:17] lunixc128: you might give it a shot and see if it works? [13:17] EriC^^, http://imgur.com/h9L1WRR [13:17] Sure, I just wondered [13:17] akik, yeah theres one 2.0 port [13:17] Cooler: ok try booting the install from that port [13:17] Probably increasing the caching would also be a good idea for buffering related dropouts [13:18] i am having problems with newtorkmanager-openvpn [13:18] akik, uh same result [13:18] Neomex: ok, type sudo cfdisk /dev/sda [13:18] https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?p=239199#p239199 [13:19] Alright, so "--repeat" should work for MMS streams [13:19] how do i know which kernel files to download http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-yakkety/ ? === zaki is now known as Guest52207 [13:19] robbbbb: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa [13:19] EriC^^, http://imgur.com/UOA5e7T [13:19] my wireless connectivity works and I was abel to manually connect to vpn but after installing networmanager-openvpn it is not auto connecting to vpn and if i try to manually connect through the gui connectivity is lost [13:19] robbbbb: oh hang on there's none for xenial [13:20] you may just have to download all the deb - I'd get ; [13:20] Neomex: ok, delete /dev/sda5 [13:20] http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-yakkety/linux-headers-4.6.0-040600_4.6.0-040600.201606100558_all.deb === l33n is now known as erkburgles [13:20] http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-yakkety/linux-headers-4.6.0-040600-generic_4.6.0-040600.201606100558_amd64.deb [13:20] http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-yakkety/linux-image-4.6.0-040600-generic_4.6.0-040600.201606100558_amd64.deb [13:20] and then dpkg -i all of them [13:21] Neomex: then recreate it, when it asks for starting sector press enter [13:21] robbbbb: assuming you're on amd64 [13:21] robbbbb: basically the headers, headers-generic and the generic image [13:22] i did new on unused partition, it this the right way?

I'm running dual boot with windows and I installed ubuntu by creating an encrypted partition and later setting it to / (I've got an unencrypted /boot). My question now is, can I create a swap file normally and it will then be encrypted since it will be located on an encrypted partition?

Without it I got black screen after getting USB startup disk to provide GRUB option. No amount of mucking around with nomodeset or noapic or noacpi helped. It was the BIOS! [13:30] EriC^^, i had to enable legacy boot in bios otherwise it wouldn't boot from EUFI .. [13:30] mrasker: what's that? [13:30] ph88: ah, you need uefi [13:30] ph88: try cat /etc/fstab [13:30] and see if there's a /boot/efi line (with no "#" at the start of it) [13:31] a p2p protocol [13:31] Neomex: can you screenshot cfdisk? === frkk is now known as krokk [13:32] EriC^^, http://imgur.com/NgIeTxF [13:33] Neomex: ok, highlight /dev/sda5 and press delete [13:33] free space is now 5 gig EriC^^ [13:34] fuck, i deleted sda4... :D [13:34] !language | Neomex [13:34] Neomex: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English.

The empty space left over will be used by Ubuntu later. [13:42] which partition? [13:42] theres multiple options [13:43] C D E F [13:43] and 3 unnamed ones [13:43] C D E and F are NTFS [13:43] the unnamed ones are blank [13:44] do i shrink c?

[13:53] EriC^^: yes [13:54] ph88: if the usb is 30gb then yes it's not efi compatible, it's using a ntfs partition [13:54] slazer: type ls -lR /boot/efi | nc termbin.com 9999 [13:55] EriC^^, yes it's 32gb usb stick ... what type of partition should i choose for the usb stick ? [13:55] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/1q9p [13:55] ph88: it should be a fat32 partition [13:55] ph88: try linuxlive usb creator [13:56] :slazer Even rufus works fine [13:56] ph88: if you make a fat32 partition and extract the iso there it'll boot [13:56] EriC^^: yeah, and I resized the /boot/efi in a furious attempt to fix the issue..I freed the initial 2 MB to make biosboot..but it seems biosboot has been there before, because the freespace is now 3MB [13:56] EriC^^: (resized using GParted) [13:56] akik, that link also says he swapped out harddrive for a fresh ssd [13:56] Cooler: just do the bios downgrade. it was a bit tricky [13:57] slazer: ok, type sudo mkdir -p /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot [13:57] also which version do i downgrade to?

[13:59] ? [13:59] akik, oh [13:59] Cooler: just do one thing at a time. your problem was the black screenk, not a hdd vs. ssd [13:59] i assumed it was for another laptop [13:59] EriC^^: oh, and I updated BIOS F.60 to F.61, which does have only one changelog --> "Provides improved security of UEFI code and variables.

I can just update one server and it spreads out? [14:08] Cooler: i just noticed that there's a copy/paste error in the http://p-s.co.nz/ page but i guess it didn't matter [14:08] Haugli92: there's also prsync for parallel rsync.. depending on what your requirements are [14:09] slazer: type sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi [14:09] Cooler: he has made a paste error in [BIOSVersionFormat] [14:10] joelio: My reqirement is that the folder is up-to-date on all locations :P [14:10] akik, what was the error [14:10] When i insert a file into the folder it automaticlly updates the remote servers [14:10] oh that [14:10] Cooler: he has copied the content from http://community.acer.com/t5/E-and-M-Series-Laptops/Acer-Aspire-e5-573g-You-can-not-install-any-one-Linux/m-p/386281/highlight/true#M3080 but the content has changed [14:10] EriC^^: done [14:10] slazer: try rebooting [14:10] akik, i was looking at the original post and changed NN to DD === z4ki is now known as zaki [14:10] so add an inotify hook if you need that - or use a shared file system if you want the properly consistent [14:10] EriC^^: ok, brb, tx [14:10] Cooler: nice! :) [14:11] Cooler: that might have hosed your system if you didn't catch it :( [14:12] Haugli92: https://github.com/drunomics/syncd [14:13] what I was saying about inotify... [14:13] but if you need proper consistency (read up on Brewers Conjectrure if you want to know more) then it's really a shared filesystem needed.. ymmv :) [14:14] joelio: Thanks :) Will check it out [14:14] I currently have a script that is manully lauched [14:14] inotfiy is an inbuilt kernel thing [14:15] Cooler: looks like you have the same wireless adapter in that laptop than i do, Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377. you need 16.04.1 install, 16.04 didn't work without an extra firmware.bin file [14:15] akik, yay it worked [14:15] yeah its 16.04.1 not 16.04 [14:15] Cooler: what worked? [14:16] directory watcher? :P [14:16] akik, downgraded and now when i selected install ubuntu [14:16] it worked [14:16] Haugli92: another one for the pile - https://github.com/axkibe/lsyncd [14:16] Cooler: good [14:17] linux is a second class citizen in laptops :( [14:17] Odd_Bloke: are you there?

[14:18] Lenovo even [14:18] Odd_Bloke: ok, so did you remember the problem or do you prefer that I recap it? [14:18] slazer: try to disable secureboot if it's enabled [14:19] EriC^^: no such entry existst in BIOS, I have checked that many times.. [14:19] EriC^^: by the way, Fedora 24 does EFI boot, Fedora 23 respin too, but Fedora 23 (vanilla, WS) had this problem [14:19] rockyh: I'd appreciate it if you could restate it. :) [14:20] ok :), so sorry in advance to the other users, because they may have already read it [14:20] slazer: ok, are you in ubuntu right now? [14:20] EriC^^: The EFI boot mode problem must have been fixed sinde Fedora 23 x64 WS has been released.

[14:21] Good morning everyone [14:21] give a look at this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21877593/ [14:21] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/tvth [14:22] both w and uptime indicate that 5 users are connected, but both w and who show just 2 users [14:22] these commands are run in Xubuntu 14.04 [14:22] so there is a mismatch between the "users" declared (that are 5) and the items in who and w, that are 2 [14:23] slazer: try sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [14:23] here, some hours ago, we were talking about "sessions" instead of users; as uptime recorded the number of *active sessions* instead of the number of *actual users* [14:24] so, what can be the problem? And how to check the active sessions? [14:24] up to here, it still seems a bug to me, or a bad implementation of uptime (and w) [14:25] any idea wth is that? http://imgur.com/SJO40oR [14:25] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/oneg [14:26] hope that now the problem is clear [14:27] EriC^^: (note: "zavádzací" means something like "bootable" or "boot flag" in English, so the FAT32 partition (/boot/efi) should be bootable) [14:27] rockyh: What does `who --all` give you? [14:27] Whats the best way to do automatic updates these days on production servers? [14:27] Can someone help me with LDAP SAMBA integration, I followed the https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/samba-ldap.html guide but dont understand which servers to run the commands, MY LDAP and SAMBA servers are on diff boxes [14:28] rockyh: I'm also curious as to what problem you're trying to solve here; these tools all have a lot of legacy, so there's almost certainly specific meaning encoded in the number. [14:28] slazer: try sudo efibootmgr -c -w -l \\EFI\\ubuntu\\shimx64.efi -L "ubuntu" -p 1 -d /dev/sda [14:30] Hey guys [14:30] Why is there no more "system tray" in ubuntu>? [14:30] I am using hexchat, and i notive its gone [14:30] theoooooooo: there is [14:30] ok so how do i get it owrking [14:30] thought you meant the whole system tray [14:30] Is there any way to export (only) my conversation with EriC^^ guys? I would like to archive it... [14:31] clock and whatnot [14:31] well to be honest [14:31] only default apps are showing htere [14:31] rockyh, so historically w, who and uptime all work on the "wtmp". This records every time a user "logs in" and "logs out". So the w and who reports just look for a miss match of records. If there is a login without a logout then that "user" is logged in. [14:31] any new programs I run do not [14:31] slazer: grep -ri "eric\|slazer" ~/.xchat2 [14:31] or whatever client you're using [14:31] EriC^^: web client... [14:32] also, wtf is imagemagick? is this legit? [14:32] slazer: copy and paste it in a file then parse it with that command [14:32] EriC^^: ok [14:32] rockyh, in addition a reboot is logged to that file which sets all users to "logged out". Opening a new terminal, while not technically logging in does make a wtmp record. [14:33] EriC^^: there have been two errors [14:33] is there a arm .torrent file around ? [14:34] EriC^^: "efibootmgr: Could not set variable Boot0000: No such file or directory" and "efibootmgr: Could not prepare boot variable: No such file or directory" [14:34] anyone? [14:34] slazer: it looks like the uefi is a little screwed up [14:35] slazer: it said earlier the boot order was missing and it's resetting the firmware [14:35] EriC^^: may be from the resizing of /boot/efi? [14:35] "No BootOrder is set; firmware will attempt recovery" [14:35] no that's irrelevant [14:35] for all the bios knows efi partition doesn't exist, it's just a list in it's memory but it seems off [14:35] :/ [14:36] can you downgrade the bios? [14:36] sort of require a .torrent [14:36] or maybe reflash it? [14:36] as http download fails [14:36] EriC^^: /boot partition is not separate..maybe its relevant [14:36] EriC^^: no way [14:37] EriC^^: HP says no way [14:37] slazer: nah, the uefi has in it's memory the efi entries, even if you delete the whole hdd it'll still have it there, pointing to those files (that don't exist anymore) [14:37] it seems it has a problem with the boot order, and setting variables in it [14:38] EriC^^: oh, by the way, there is a switch in bios to choose between "Legacy BOOT" and "UEFI boot (experimental)" [14:38] try sudo efibootmgr -v again [14:38] yeah, if you choose legacy you'll have to convert to legacy boot [14:39] EriC^^: it would probably work with legacy (it did with Fedora 23), but then..UEFI is the future [14:39] hp uefi is the future so far ahead it became the past [14:39] :D [14:39] on my hp, i hit a motherboard bug and uefi list disappeared, i had to convert to legacy [14:40] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/t8c8 [14:40] it was working fine, then it did the bug, i read others has happened after 3 days of use, mine was like 3 years later [14:40] Odd_Bloke: here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/21897742/ (sorry for the delay) [14:40] slazer: try sudo efibootmgr -o 0004 [14:41] Anyone ? [14:41] rockyh: So I guess I'm still curious as to what the problem you think you're seeing is. :) [14:41] EriC^^: "efibootmgr: Could not set BootOrder: No such file or directory" [14:41] slazer: try sudo modprobe efivars [14:41] hypermist: arm image for what device? [14:42] k1l, pi [14:42] which one? you know, details matter [14:42] hi [14:42] my problem is that the number of users declared is not the actual number of users connected to the system [14:42] in particular: [14:43] a log in through /dev/tty1 has been made. Then a logout has been made. But that user is still counted in uptime, as if he were still there. But he is not! [14:43] EriC^^: it says to me "Use netcat.", its becoming cheeky! [14:43] slazer: lol [14:43] join #kali [14:44] rockyh, have you looked at the output of last to look at the counts? [14:44] k1l, pi1. [14:45] pi1b+ ? [14:45] i think [14:45] slazer: any luck? [14:45] hypermist: there is non for the pi1 since that arm chip is too old [14:45] try sudo efibootmgr -o 0004 [14:45] p00p [14:45] this is last: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21898354/ [14:45] alright well this wont work then [14:45] hmph to a full desktop machine it is i guess XD [14:46] EriC^^: no output [14:46] ls [14:46] EriC^^: I might as well give you the shell :D there is no sensitive information on my pc, its fresh install [14:46] hypermist: raspbian no good? [14:46] slazer: try sudo efibootmgr -v again has it set the boot order to 0004 ? [14:46] hey people [14:46] Odd_Bloke, ctjctj: if one or more logins with tty1, tty2 are made, and then the users log out, they should not be still counted in uptime, w or wherever. Instead they are! This is my problem. [14:46] joelio, its not working with what i mtryign to do [14:47] its throwing me npm errors. because packages wont work.. [14:47] what npm errors? [14:47] that may be something specific to npm, not to ARM [14:47] so, a log out from /dev/tty1 does not update utmp, but it is wrong IMHO [14:47] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/6bmj [14:47] joelio, packages and stuff wont fetch [14:47] rockyh, I understand. I've been checking a dozen different servers to see if I saw any issues. And yes, I did. [14:48] hypermist: sure but which ones :) pastebin it or something I'll look if you want [14:48] slazer: try this sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi [14:48] uhm. [14:48] slazer: sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/bootmgfw.efi [14:48] ctjctj: oh, really?! [14:48] rockyh: this is not a bug. the reason that the list is "complete" on 16.04 is that systemd keeps track of sessions and users in a different way, i'm guessing upstart is showing you there are 2 logged in users running a total of 5 shells. [14:48] then try going into the bios and try to load the defaults [14:48] slazer: ^ and see if it boots [14:49] hypermist: https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/4194/getting-npm-installed-on-raspberry-pi-wheezy-image [14:49] http://pastebin.com/aKCBgepE joelio [14:49] i have npm installed [14:49] but it wont fetch packages and such [14:50] hypermist: yea, because it's an old version of nodejs [14:50] hypermist: check network. but we are out of the #ubuntu focus there [14:50] EriC^^: "/boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi" was already there, but I will re-cp [14:50] networks fine k1l [14:50] ducasse: we are back here after a brief discussion in #ubuntu-devel. You would be right if the users were different. But here there is just one name, rockyh, which opened the GUI and the shells, so the resulting users should be 1 [14:50] they are 2 instead [14:50] i was just following what the wiki page for this program said [14:50] xD [14:50] joelio, [14:51] i know this is Ubuntu, but I'm wondering if it is possible to play a sound when the trash is emptied in Linux Mint [14:51] rockyh, yes. There seems to have been a change from 15.10 to 16.04 in tracking what a user is. As ducasse has said. If I ssh to a remote server I see a one for one correspondence in the output of w/who/last with actual logins. [14:51] EriC^^: "/boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/bootmgfw.efi" wasn't, it was inside the Boot dir inside the Microsoft dir [14:51] slazer: yeah, we're copying the grubx64.efi files over this time [14:51] hypermist: you're getting connection refused too, so perhaps network issue there *or* it's down to SSL versions being old on the raspbian and can't access https://registry.. [14:51] slazer: you have a typo, it's /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi [14:51] ducasse, ctjctj, Odd_Bloke: this is good in 16.04. I think it is an error to consider a user who logged out from a tty as still present in the system, just because some table or utmp file has not been update after the logout [14:51] slazer: my bad [14:51] When I log into the desk top I get exactly one log in regardless of the number of terminals I have open. This seems to be a change. I use to get one user per ptty. The results are still self consistant. [14:52] rockyh: no, on the paste you showed me there was one console user (X, :0) and one ssh user. that's two. [14:52] rockyh, it sounds to me like you have a bad file, not anything else. [14:52] joelio, maybe. but im connected via the same network and my pi2 is. maybe the isp modem im using is failing joelio ?, i guess if i really wanted to i can installed a 48 port network switch in my bedroom haha [14:52] rockyh: I have to head out, but it sounds like other people are helping out now. :) [14:52] EriC^^: "sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi" executed [14:52] akik, i installed ubuntu but i am not getting the option to select which os at boot [14:52] Odd_Bloke: sure, don't worry and thank you [14:53] rockyh: :) [14:53] akik, can you post that link again? [14:53] ctjctj: yes, but it is not an occasional error. It is systematic [14:53] EriC^^: "sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi" executed [14:53] EriC^^: rebooting, right? [14:53] nvm found it [14:53] slazer: ok [14:53] yea my network must be dropping packets joelio [14:54] molt, this might help: https://askubuntu.com/questions/335964/empty-trash-sound-event [14:54] hypermist: can you ping google from it.. 1st step [14:54] slazer: yeah, set the bios to load defaults, and see if you can set an admin password and that might let you disable secureboot [14:54] joelio, yea i can. [14:54] lemme swap some network equipment :) [14:55] akik, http://p-s.co.nz/wordpress/dual-boot-ubuntu-16-04-on-win-10-acer-aspire-e15/ [14:55] EriC^^: Is it necessary? I spent like hald an hour fine-tuning the bios..never mind, Ill do that if required. Admin password? Like the password to enter the bios? [14:55] ducasse: ok, this is a criterion. Anyway, I hope you understood the problem with my system: a tty user is considered there even when he leaved (with a log out) [14:55] i can't do the Add Ubuntu efi files and change boot order so Ubuntu grub efi comes first [14:55] step [14:55] slazer: yeah, sometimes when you set that you get options to disable secure boot [14:56] rockyh: is that a logout from ssh, for instance, or the closing of a shell? [14:56] EriC^^: there were some stupid "security features" that tried to hide some settings to non-admin..I have set all to "visible" and "modifiable" [14:57] slazer: ok, look for secureboot [14:57] or "trust efi" [14:57] preferably disable secureboot [14:57] EriC^^: I might be buying a new laptop soon, as well..from some reasonable vendor. What do you recommend? [14:58] slazer: personally i like hp [14:58] :D [14:58] EriC^^: yep, thats unfortunate..me too :D [14:58] ducasse: no, it is the local (purely textual) terminal, tty1. It is accessible by Ctrl+Alt+F1: I logged in there, then I logged out. But in uptime and w the user is still counted (and not listed in w and who) [14:58] how old is the hp you have? [14:58] akik, ? [14:58] hi [14:59] i am trying to set In the BIOS, Security > Select an UEFI file as trusted for executing [14:59] EriC^^: bought in 2012 [14:59] rockyh: so the number keeps climbing if you log in and out repeatedly? [14:59] slazer: i see [14:59] Approve all ubuntu efi files. HDD0 > > > all the .efi files. [14:59] there are some that are named .efi.mui [14:59] EriC^^: is that..you know..old? [14:59] i just updated a 3rd party package and it added a new file which overwrote a file i already had in place. is there any way to recover that file? [14:59] ducasse: no, the number keeps climbing if I log in and out from other tty (like tty2, tty3, tty4 ...) [14:59] slazer: nah [14:59] EriC^^: ok, rebooting, brb [15:00] slazer: i bought mine in 2013, now the hdd is almost dead, battery died etc. also seeing which to buy [15:00] do i need to enable those too? [15:00] TomyWork: what file? but i guess not [15:00] k1l a file that is not marked as config [15:01] ducasse: every time I log in and log out through a new tty (not pts, not GUI, but tty), number of users get incremented and never decremented at the logout, till system reboot obviously [15:02] rockyh: i don't have a trusty system on hand to test, but that could be a bad interaction between the getty and upstart. [15:02] EriC^^: Improbable! It has worked! [15:02] slazer: great! :D [15:02] ctjctj: I agree, I have maybe a bad file. Anyway, the way this file is updated is buggy [15:02] EriC^^: so the issue has been the SecureBoot? [15:02] ducasse: yes, it could [15:03] rockyh: you can file a bug, to see what the devs say. [15:03] slazer: maybe [15:03] and even if the system is "old" I think it should be reported [15:03] slazer: that would make sense since it said the upgrade adds secureboot stuff, who knows [15:03] EriC^^: Is there some way I can investigate? Some tutorial? [15:03] ducasse: sorry, what do you mean with "file a bug"? [15:03] rockyh: open a bug report. [15:04] slazer: try enabling secureboot again, and switching the files to shimx64.efi [15:04] could someone help me with setting up an ssh server? When I try to connect to it by ip address, putty says "Connection Refused" [15:04] if it doesn't like it then it's the secureboot [15:04] EriC^^: I have not disabled secureboot..there is no such option in bios afaik [15:04] slazer: maybe it just didn't like the shimx64.efi files [15:04] but I can connect to this computer locally by connecting to the computer name [15:04] did you reset the bios defaults? [15:05] EriC^^: I did not..I just rebooted. [15:05] ducasse: ok; I've never done it before. Is there a guide? [15:05] slazer: ok, then i guess it didn't like the files, or if you changed any other settings [15:05] something like https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs ? [15:06] rockyh: you just run 'ubuntu-bug package' where package is the package you want to file it against. it will gather some info and open a browser page for you. [15:07] ducasse: ok, it sounds easy. But I don't know what package to select [15:07] the package to which w, who and uptime belong [15:07] bug_sniper: what command do you use? make sure to use "ssh user@ip". if you dont set the user it will use the username you actually use. and rootlogin is closed [15:08] TomyWork: i doubt you can get that file back. [15:08] k1l I'm using putty on windows to connect [15:08] and the username is my own username [15:08] rockyh: no, they report the data they're given, it's likely the getty that doesn't update utmp/wtmp properly. so i'd guess util-linux [15:08] the account I set up while installing ubuntu [15:09] bug_sniper: is this in the same local network? [15:09] ducasse: yes, you're right, maybe it is getty. Ok! [15:09] k1l yes, it is [15:10] bug_sniper: you use that local ip? [15:10] k1l yes [15:11] rockyh: it doesn't really matter, if it is a bug the devs will refile against the right package if necessary. just get it in the right ballpark :) [15:11] need to install Flash on 16.04 - amd - help please [15:11] ducasse: ahahahah ok!! :) [15:12] bug_sniper: is "openssh-server" installed on that ubuntu machine you want to connect to? [15:12] k1l, yes [15:13] uddane, for your browser? [15:13] EriC^^: Hi, I've lost the connection. So again, what might have been the issue? [15:13] BluesKaj: yes [15:13] rockyh: just explain clearly in the report that this only happens for tty login/logouts. [15:13] slazer: the uefi didn't like the shimx64.efi file [15:13] hello all [15:14] uddane, which browser? [15:14] rockyh: and make sure you are fully updated first. [15:14] BluesKaj: would prefer Chrome, but will go with firefox if needed [15:14] somebody help [15:14] EriC^^: so the command "efibootmgr -c -w -l \\EFI\\ubuntu\\shimx64.efi -L "ubuntu" -p 1 -d /dev/sda" fixed that? [15:14] Cooler: with what? [15:15] is it okay to use pip under sudo ? [15:15] i am not getting the option to select ubuntu at boot [15:15] slazer: no, copying grubx64.efi over the default efi file paths worked [15:15] bug_sniper: is there a ip conflict maybe? [15:15] uddane: chrome has flash built-in. [15:15] and its installed =D [15:15] k1l at least i found out that no one bothered to put this machine on the backup list :D [15:15] ducasse: I guess I am, I've installed all the updates automatically appeared at boot [15:15] k1l it's possible since there are several computers that use the same router [15:15] ducasse: won't play HBOGO... [15:15] slazer: the mkdir and cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/..... commands [15:15] EriC^^: Do you mean "cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi" or "cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi" or both? [15:16] uddane, FF should work with flash by default [15:16] k1l, is it possible to still have a way to connect to the linux machine by ssh? [15:16] slazer: both, they're the default paths for efi [15:16] bug_sniper: i would make sure the router gives that machine a static ip adress [15:16] rockyh: ok, they will probably reject the report if you're not up to date, that's why i mentioned it. [15:16] bug_sniper: to me it sounds like a network issue, not like a OS issue. [15:16] uddane, if not install flashplugin-installer [15:16] k1l, is that done through ip forwarding? [15:16] EriC^^: okay, thanks than, I might write about that on Bugzilla or sth like that [15:17] bug_sniper: no, its in the dhcp settings of the router [15:17] slazer: ok, cool, no problem [15:17] BluesKaj: can you please give me the command line for that install? [15:17] anyone? [15:17] i am not getting the option to select ubuntu at boot, even thought its installed [15:17] Cooler: did you install ubuntu [15:17] yes [15:17] uddane, sudo apt install flashplugin-installer [15:18] Cooler: go to the bios and see if you can "trust" the ubuntu entry [15:18] how [15:18] Cooler: go to boot options and see if you have a "trust" menu [15:18] ok, I'll try to look into that [15:18] !apt | uddane [15:18] BluesKaj: it's doing something [15:18] thanks [15:18] uddane: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) [15:19] hi [15:19] BluesKaj: restarting browser [15:19] EriC^^, there is a option called select an uefi file as trusted for executing [15:20] Cooler: bingo [15:20] this question is not necessarily ubuntu specific but i need some help. ihave an ubuntu 14.04 server running an ftp server. i inherited it, and i have no idea where i might find the .htaccess file so i can change some settings [15:20] BluesKaj: ok, at the risk of sounding like an idiot... how do I enable it in FF [15:21] hello, I just upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04 and apt keeps hanging when i add repos, update or upgrade [15:21] i installed synaptic and it hangs too [15:21] uddane, relogin [15:21] i can't figure out what's getting it stuck. It'll often say 'Working [0%] [15:21] and stay that way for about half a minute [15:22] yahoo [15:22] mekhami: .htaccess is for http servers afaik... [15:22] EriC^^, i tried trusting all 4 files as sasid here [15:22] said* [15:22] yeah .htaccess is an apache thing i think [15:22] http://p-s.co.nz/wordpress/dual-boot-ubuntu-16-04-on-win-10-acer-aspire-e15/ [15:23] also ftp is very insecure mekhami [15:23] ducasse: you gave a precious advice! [15:23] EriC^^, the Add Ubuntu efi files and change boot order so Ubuntu grub efi comes first step [15:23] Cooler: ok [15:23] try restarting [15:23] rockyh: well, thanks, but i'm not sure what :) [15:23] but i don't get the option to change the boot priority for grub [15:23] Cooler: f5 f6 maybe? [15:24] EriC^^, grubx64 doesn't show up in boot priority [15:24] Cooler: try using a one time boot option to boot ubuntu and maybe you can change it from there using efibootmgr [15:24] hi ubuntu gurus. can anyone reccomend a VNC server that i can use with ubuntu desktop? [15:25] horse: if you need something that works on multiple OSs i would recommend teamviewer. [15:25] i just tried "tightvnc" but it seems to want to use it's own desktop environment [15:25] Just 2fa it. [15:25] strong password, and white list. [15:25] EriC^^, try using what? [15:25] Cooler: try the one time boot option [15:25] BluesKaj: still the same prompt to install flashplayer when trying to watch a movie on hbogo [15:25] horse: you can't use vnc with unity, afaik, you need something without 3d accel. [15:26] Cooler: when it boots try esc and choose boot options or something to that effect [15:26] it's f9 in hp's f12 in lenovo [15:26] ducasse really? [15:26] horse: think so, yes. [15:26] ducasse: that explains alot [15:26] EriC^^, you mean the f12 boot menu? [15:26] Cooler: yeah [15:26] i couldnt find any instructions for any VNC server for use with unity [15:27] horse: try lxde, or xfce without compositor. [15:27] i quite like the luck of unity so wanted to try it out [15:27] i'm a bit disspaointed you cant remote into it [15:27] luck = look [15:28] EriC^^: wat lol [15:28] ftp is as insecure sa you configure it to be [15:28] EriC^^, the options that show up in the boot priority order are EFI File Boot 0: y [15:28] mekhami: sftop [15:28] *sftp [15:28] mekhami: no, ftp is insecure period. [15:29] mekhami: ftp is like sending private text with a postcard. [15:29] how can I turn off swap permanently? I thought you had to edit /etc/fstab but mine has only one uncommented line which is UUID=80919e96-e83b-4c88-b30e-8673e1faa3b4 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1 [15:29] Cooler: can you browse for the efi file? [15:29] lesshaste: maybe you don't have swap on? [15:29] uddane, some sites aren't linux flash friendly , try a different site with videos [15:30] lesshaste: try "swapon -s" [15:30] EriC^^, I do because I keep on having to do a hard reboot when I run out of RAM! [15:30] lesshaste: check the output of `swapon -s` to see what swap files/partitions you have [15:30] EriC^^, thanks.. I will have to do that after a reboot as I did sudo swapoff -a just now [15:30] lesshaste: that would suggest you dont have swap [15:30] BluesKaj: poop.... other sites seem to work like youtube [15:30] EriC^^, or really? [15:30] yeah [15:31] EriC^^, why does the cursor stop moving and is the computer unusable when I run of RAM? [15:31] EriC^^, I am running python code that uses it all up sadly [15:31] cause you dont have swap [15:31] EriC^^, shouldn't the OOM killer kick in? [15:31] why do you think that suggests you have swap? === Celtor is now known as vitimiti [15:31] youtube normally uses HTML5 , but some legacy videos still use flash [15:31] EriC^^, the thrashing which makes the computer unusable [15:32] uddane,^ [15:32] how do I find out which port or /dev/tty|usb file my usb device is connected to? [15:32] I'm getting the following: [15:32] lesshaste: 'free -m' will show you if you have swap. [15:32] ducasse, thanks [15:32] BluesKaj: yeah, I saw :-( [15:32] hid-generic 0003:03EB:2402.0012: hiddev0,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Device [Something Something GmbH] on usb-0000:00:14.0-1/input0 [15:32] i''m quite surprised that you can't RDP into a unity desktop. seems a bit...odd [15:32] Bomber4Chats, lsusb === beaver is now known as evilnewbie [15:33] lesshaste: if you have no swap and run out of ram than your system will be quite unusable too with the oomkiller since it will try to make a list of processes using ram and then calculate what to kill. while he has no ram or cpu time to do that quick [15:33] BluesKaj: OK, what detail from there do I need in order to telnet to the usb? [15:33] device* [15:33] k1l, ok.. so really I would like the process using 6GB to be killed [15:33] I just wanted to confirm, installing 16.04.1 with ZFS root is this hard |---> https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Ubuntu-16.04-Root-on-ZFS <---| and there is no easier way using the default installer (with GParted) [15:33] I feel a user shouldn't be able to bring the system down so easily [15:34] lesshaste: set process limits. [15:34] how do properly run systems stop users just bringing the whole thing down by using too much RAM? [15:34] ducasse, ok.. where do I do that? [15:34] I am considering ZFS over ext4 for performance...but I can't figure out if its worth the fuss (difficult configuration) [15:35] slazer, what are you using the system for? [15:35] Bomber4Chats, dunno anything about telnet except it's insecure [15:35] ext4 perforance isn't bad [15:35] lesshaste: its an office PC for my mom [15:35] and it's very relianble [15:35] BluesKaj: very important indeed [15:35] slazer, don't bother!! [15:35] lesshaste: but it has HDD, not SSD [15:35] lesshaste: 'help ulimit' for bash [15:35] slazer, mum's need reliability above all :) [15:35] Anyone else know how to telnet to a usb device which I am not sure what address it is on? [15:35] slazer, it makes no difference :) [15:36] slazer: zfs is super nice, but it's only for data storage, not the root fs. [15:36] lesshaste: I am used to SSD and I can feel the difference, mainly the boot time, but also some application's loading times [15:36] slazer, right but can she? [15:36] slazer: you can always grab a small ssd or sata dom for root, and then run zfs on the other, main disk(s) [15:36] slazer, how many times a day does she boot or load an application? [15:36] Bomber4Chats, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-networking-3/telnet-to-usb-device-on-interface-usb0-and-find-ip-of-device-762244/ [15:37] lesshaste: not really..but I want to setup everything for a year, not to be forced to maintain anything [15:37] slazer, exactly.. ext4 is easy and will work [15:37] no maintenancy [15:37] lesshaste: meaning..do the hard work now, rest later [15:37] slazer, right... the hard work is not to do anything fancy :) [15:37] BluesKaj: ifconfig? didn't work :S [15:38] slazer, your main challenge is setting it up so you can fix it remotely [15:38] I'm reading that I should be doing this: [15:38] sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x067b product=0x2303 [15:38] ip addr Bomber4Chats ? [15:38] why ip addr? [15:38] localhost? [15:38] lesshaste: well, maybe I set up hibernation and let her used that instead of shutdown [15:39] it replace ifconfig [15:39] replaced [15:39] slazer, ok [15:39] sipior: its notebook, only one drive === DLance1 is now known as DLance96 [15:40] lesshaste: hmm, thats good idea, VNC [15:40] slazer: there's no reason to use zfs on such a machine, rather the opposite. i love zfs, but this is not what it's intended for. === z4ki is now known as zaki [15:40] okay than, I dith ZFS [15:40] how about btrfs? [15:40] *ditch [15:40] slazer: _no_ === zaki is now known as Guest33512 [15:40] but ext4 is so boooring :( [15:41] slazer, right.. trying to understand what is wrong over the phone is painful [15:41] slazer: btrfs is not ready for primetime, ext4 is much more reliable yet. [15:41] slazer, focus on what will save you hours of pain :) [15:41] anyone else? === Guest33512 is now known as zaki [15:41] slazer: ext4 works, that's what's important. [15:41] okay then, I', convinced [15:41] to LVM, or not to LVM? [15:41] Bomber4Chats: ifconfig is deprecated. [15:42] slazer: on a single disk? how big? [15:42] rypervenche: good, how do I connect to a usb device that I don't know it's address? [15:42] 750GB [15:42] hola [15:42] dmesg is showing a weird address [15:42] hello [15:42] ducasse: 75GB [15:42] ducasse: 750 GB [15:42] hi [15:42] Bomber4Chats: What do you mean connect to a USB device? Oh, an external device? Type: dmesg [15:42] Bomber4Chats: It should show sdX where X is a letter [15:43] slazer: i don't think i would bother, one more thing that can go wrong. just set up sane partition sizes, or use only one main partition. [15:43] BluesKaj: HBO needs to fix it's sh!t... all my other channels work just fine [15:43] I'm trying to install VirtualBox from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads but I'm getting an error with vboxdrv [15:43] hi [15:44] rypervenche: http://pastebin.com/zcSTyFuH [15:44] no sdX [15:44] greetings! [15:44] slazer: i'm just thinking if i were to set up a machine for my mother, i would go the "minimum surprises" route. [15:45] uddane, try chrome-browser, not chromium [15:45] is there a way to read a dvd from the filesystem, as in, an unencrypted dv copied to the filesystem [15:45] slazer noob [15:46] OK, my device doesn't seem to have a driver [15:46] but I know I can telnet to it [15:46] I've done it on Windows [15:46] but for some reason I fail to do so in Linux [15:47] ducasse, Padelas: well, btrfs (ZFS) or LVM gives me the snapshots things, might be usefull [15:47] Bomber4Chats: Yeah, seems to need some sort of driver on it. [15:48] but can't I still connect to it? [15:48] slazer: is she going to use that? [15:48] ducasse, Padelas: I might, when solving problems. [15:48] slazer: I would always LVM, personally. [15:48] slazer: ok, if you want lvm then use it, it's pretty mature imo. [15:48] ducasse: your precious advice was about checking if the system is up-to-date. By a better check, it wasn't :) [15:48] www [15:49] rockyh: good you caught that before filing a bug :) [15:49] ok. it's easy though. stay cool [15:49] yes :)! [15:51] rockyh: make sure to check again for the same behavior after updating and a reboot. it's probably the same, but... === perkelbjork is now known as pinginix [15:52] System76 is coming out with a new laptop, and I'm finally going to switch to Ubuntu for my main laptop. But I'm coming from OSX and the only lock-in I have is Photos. I take a lot of the iOS motion photos and don't know how Ubuntu will handle those. Anyone know of a good strategy for migration? === tikun is now known as sikun [15:55] anyone know how can I connect to my usb device with telnet / putty? === Padelas is now known as HipsterHacker [15:55] I just upgraded a server from Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04. The root user's PATH variable seems to be messed up now. It currently is "/usr/bin:/bin:/snap/bin". Where should I start looking to find the root of this problem? [15:56] Bomber4Chats: a /dev/ttyusbs* serial device thingy? [15:56] BluesKaj: I will in a few, have a meeting for work first... [15:56] you should never have to do that [15:57] ducasse: I don't know [15:57] I can't find if it has one [15:58] Bomber4Chats: if you have no serial device, you can't connect. are you sure there is a driver? [15:58] No, I don't think there is [15:58] How do I see my serial devices? [15:59] hmm, if I am to use the LVM, I might as well switch to ZFS altogether, coz LVM sux apparently (http://serverfault.com/questions/279571/lvm-dangers-and-caveats). It reduces to RAW vs ZFS, then. So again, is ZFS really this difficult to configure? (https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Ubuntu-16.04-Root-on-ZFS) Because ZFS has its ups... (http://louwrentius.com/should-i-use-zfs-for-my-home-nas.html) [15:59] meetings, bah humbug,...I used to avoid them if possible when i was still working :-) [15:59] Bomber4Chats: ls /dev/tty* - it should be ttyUSBS0 or something similar [15:59] I get this http://termbin.com/rode [15:59] slazer: zfs is a very bad choice for a notebook, it _eats_ memory. [15:59] when running /sbin/vboxconfig as root [16:00] slazer: LVM does not suck at all. [16:00] I'm trying to install the latest version of VirtalBox (5.1) [16:00] ducasse: that concludes this discussion, coz memory is an issue on this notebook [16:00] yeap [16:00] there 63 tty [16:00] ttys [16:00] and 30 ttyS [16:00] RAW ftw [16:01] rypervenche: that SO says that, not me [16:01] Bomber4Chats: any ttyUSBS* ? [16:01] no [16:01] Bomber4Chats: then no driver. [16:01] k... [16:01] so..? [16:02] Bomber4Chats: try the manufacturer site. [16:02] I don't think they have a driver. Pretty sure they don't [16:02] Let's assume they don't :) [16:02] Bomber4Chats: it might also be possible to use another driver, since such hardware is pretty generic, but i'm not sure how to do that. [16:03] slazer: I just took a look at that list and all of those reasons are basically just "I don't know how to do this correctly" or "I don't have backups" or "I am using HDD and SDD mixed together (bad idea)". [16:03] Bomber4Chats: you'd need to convince the kernel module to have a modalias for your device, but that's not something i've done before. [16:03] :S [16:04] BluesKaj: still the same in chrome... :-( I give up.. :-| [16:04] I'm a bit confused why Windows is able to communicate with the device, but linux cannot [16:04] rypervenche: I'd expect a good volume manager to manage SSD+HDD transparently without any issue. [16:05] Bomber4Chats: as i said, such hardware is very generic, so it might be possible to get it working with an existing driver. try asking in ##linux. [16:05] hi! I am wondering if there is a fix for the combination headphones and microphones, in order to get the microphone working? [16:05] slazer: You don't want to mix the two on the same volume. [16:05] seems like theres a lot that says they are just broken got them at 5 below [16:07] slazer: if you want to mix ssd and hdd, look at bcache. but mixing ssd and hdd is not an issue here anyway. [16:07] uddane, some sites like hbo probly use spme out of date flash no longer supported ...we have a major tv network here in Canada whose videos dont run successfully in linux [16:07] hi [16:08] BluesKaj uddane: or drm. [16:15] d0d1 is here. Bow down! [16:19] so i started ubuntu and its displaying a bunch of keyboard shortcuts [16:19] what is super? [16:19] in super + tab [16:19] windows key [16:19] oh ok [16:20] generally, anyway [16:20] why not say that [16:20] some keyboards don't... [16:20] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_key_(keyboard_button) [16:20] plus it's ubuntu, why perpetuate MS trademarks :) [16:25] Hi! [16:26] lo peeps [16:26] anybody here knows where I can find libcms1 package for Ubuntu? (yes I know it's old but I need it) [16:26] im sure ppl have asked before ... but when the screen goes to sleep ... i cant wake it with the mouse movement or keyboard [16:26] any solutions ? [16:27] all my searches have not found a working solution [16:27] best case i have is to use xset to turn off screensaver blanking/expose and turn off dpms too [16:27] but that means my screen never goes to sleep [16:29] any proefficient with extundelete ? [16:29] jzaw, there is various ACPCI settings you can try I suppose [16:29] ngomes, what are you trying to do? [16:29] recover deleted files from ext4? [16:29] zteam in efi/bios ?

[16:34] EriC^, looks like magicrescue can search for given extension [16:34] gonna experiment that [16:34] ok [16:35] finally got ubuntu working [16:35] phishfi69, install the guest additions iso then share it [16:35] top right corner, shared folders [16:36] finally got ubuntu working [16:36] cool [16:36] jzaw, those options can be se via GRUB, google on ACPI (I miss-spelled it before) and Ubuntu a little bit, this might give you some clues https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingACPI and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingGNOMEPowerManager [16:37] thanks zteam .. no need to say this is for 16.04 ;) [16:37] Eric^, I have installed the guest additions, but whenever I type mount -t vboxsf, it says vboxsf is not a recongized filesystem [16:37] phishfi69, try settings > shares [16:38] Ok, in VB's settings, I have 5 folders set under "Machine Folders" with directions to their respective folders on the Windows Host [16:38] jzaw, yes that documentation is quite old, but that was what I could find :-) [16:38] it's my first use in anger of ubuntu (esp on a desktop) till now ive for years ive just used vanilla debian on the desktop and xfce [16:38] jzaw, updating your display-driver might also be worth a shot [16:39] phishfi69, did you share them in windows? [16:39] oh, like set them as shared folders? nope, let me try that [16:39] yeah [16:41] ubuntu 16.04 sound not working [16:41] please help [16:45] OK, folders shared on windows, still get "mount: unknown filesystem type 'vboxsf' [16:47] phishfi, you need the vbox helper stuff installed on windows for the shared folders to work [16:49] cosmicfires, any idea where I can find that? I diddn't see anything about it in the user guides from VirtualBox [16:49] you should have it, let me check the menu [16:49] phishfi, usually i just add the shares in virtualbox and share it on the host [16:50] and then they come up under network shares in the filemanager [16:50] no need to manually use mount -t [16:51] phishfi, on the vbox window's menu Devices->Insert Guest Additions CD Image... [16:51] OK, so I am trying to get /mnt/downloads from the Ubuntu guest machine to direct to the A:/Downloads folder on my Windows host [16:51] cosmicfires, I've done that and installed the guest additions already [16:51] phishfi, I didn't understand where you were, you have to enable something else too I'll look [16:52] thanks! [16:53] in the VBox window where you configure and start VMs Shared Folders->Machine Folders [16:53] I have Auto-mount yes and Access Full there [16:54] I've had problems getting shared folders to work too === riobravo00 is now known as bwr [16:54] OK, auto-mount and access full are both checked [16:55] the folders on linux need permissions for the user running vbox too obviously [16:57] ok, and how do I do that from terminal? [16:58] like any other folder/files with chmod [16:59] if the same user owns the shared folder as is running vbox permissions should be correct [17:01] my user that runs vbox is in the vboxusers group, that's likely important too [17:01] I guess what I'm saying is how do I chmod a folder that I can't view without mounting? or am I missing something (it's been over a year since I messed with linux) [17:01] remember when you add a user to a group you have to log in again [17:01] you can look at the folder in linux phishfi2 ?

Theres enough people that someone will know and throw out an answer [18:11] eee the problem is that i don't really know what's happening [18:12] well, i installed ubuntu today and i can't go back on w7 [18:12] i edited teh /etc/grub.d/40_custom but i got an error "invalide signature" [18:13] rsully also move your mouse cursor side to side to see if the mouse shows up on other displays. in some configurations you can have an active display with nothing or just gray or just a "x" as a mouse that moves on the display, so be observant [18:14] yeah when I added the second x screen i could move my mouse to it (turned into an x) but there was no desktop there [18:16] monitor#1>>>>gpu#1 and monitor#2>>>>gpu#2 is this your display topology rsully? [18:16] yeah [18:17] ok cool [18:18] can somebody help me restor the latest ub on my laptop ? [18:18] prob is black screen with only mouse cursor and can tty [18:18] and can somebody help me to fix my dual boot ? [18:19] there's no w7 [18:19] what's going on with your dual boot dreais?....did you install linux first or second? [18:19] i was with w7 and i installed ubuntu [18:19] just today [18:20] the prob is that when i shutdown the computer, grub didn't show w7 [18:20] i edited /etc/grub.d/40_custom but when windows 7 showed i got an error invalide signature [18:20] ah i see [18:20] im kinda scared [18:21] don't be affraid [18:21] yea but [18:21] you just need to fix your grub [18:21] there was 2 partitions before installing linux [18:21] one about 30mb, with "WINDOWS 10 LOADER" that i deleted [18:21] and now im wondering if it was a good choice [18:21] dreais: Could you once boot ubuntu and do a 'sudo update-grub'. If you are lucky, you're good. You shouldn't need a custom grub configuration normally. [18:21] Is there a posibility to ASCII 7 in Bash? [18:22] So, I can hear a BEEP. [18:22] i did everything here with sudo update-grub [18:22] even with /etc/grub.d/40_custom [18:22] tatertots any idea how to make that screen useful? [18:22] if you setup at least a 1/2 proper dual boot then you probably just need to fix grub [18:22] tatertots: ask me everything about the setup then [18:22] i'll try to answer the best i can [18:23] Ideapad 100S-14/Ubuntu 16.04/Firefox 47.0 -> Cold start = 6,5 seconds [18:24] Is this "normal"?

Would make problems? [18:31] rsully you're opening nvidia settings with sudo ? [18:31] no, but when I save the file it prompts me for my password [18:32] i did recommended repair a little earlier [18:32] nothing much happened [18:32] anyone have an issue on 14.04 (fully updated) where Chrome browser just has a bunch of white and black boxes?

[19:14] do you have a pastebin of before you deleted the partition by any chance?

[19:17] then highlight it and see if it mentions a filesystem in the box [19:17] dreais, okey, that seems quite odd, have you guys changed CHS values in TestDisk or something? [19:17] Jordan_U, oh good catch on the primaries [19:17] dreais, delete the /dev/sda4 [19:17] >to create more partition, first replace a primary with an extended partition [19:17] ok [19:17] and create a partition at the start [19:17] wait, the swap ?

I have expanded the VHD and corrected the GPT Table, as well as expanded the LVM partition, but lvextend tells me that the LV is the maximum size. What step am I missing? [21:35] hi [21:38] DWSR: DWSR have you extend the physical volume in lvm? [21:39] DWSR: pvs is the command to confirm [21:39] arlion[w]: It says PSize 249.02g, PFree 0 [21:39] Even though the partition is now 399GB [21:40] yeah, that's cause the physical volume wasn't expanded [21:40] in lvm you gotta start from the bottom layer and work up [21:41] Alright, I expanded the partition [21:41] pvresize [21:41] and then you will be able to do lvextend [21:41] arlion[w]: How do I list the pvs? [21:42] you can list physical volumes with pvs [21:42] arlion[w]: I assume there's a shortcut for pvresize for max free space? [21:42] Something like 100%FREE? [21:43] just 100% [21:43] Oh, just nothing [21:43] That also does it. [21:44] hmm... did that work? [21:44] So once I have the pv extended, I need to extend the VG? [21:44] It did. [21:44] correct [21:44] vgextend VG PV? [21:44] vgextend vg00 /dev/sda4 /dev/sdn1 [21:44] is an example [21:44] arlion[w]: Don't need to extend the vg in the case of extending the partition [21:45] It's already picked up on it. [21:45] awesome [21:46] bonsoir === MobGod is now known as Mob [21:48] I havent seen IRC for almost a decade [21:48] We are alive and well [21:48] arlion[w]: No shortcut for lvextend for max free space?

[21:56] bekks: Got it, thank you though [21:57] DWSR: cheers :) [21:58] Hello everyone. I've got a quite simple question: I want to record a streamed TV program on a daily base using (command line) vlc performed as a cron job. The according command ends with "--sout=file/avi:tv_record.avi". Now I would simply like to add the current date to the filename - How could this be done? [21:59] wazzap everyone? is there a way so gnome software center can show every app? [21:59] secure_linux: maybe $(date +%F) [22:00] how is the new gnome desktop? [22:00] how much ram does it need [22:00] & hi everyone [22:00] NRSail, im not liking it [22:01] oh :( [22:01] how come [22:01] I used to like gnome [22:01] NRSail: "the new gnome desktop"? gnome-shell is some years old already [22:01] NRSail, it doesnt show all installable apps [22:02] but lately i had Ram constraint and speed requirements [22:02] opted for xfce [22:02] Unfortunately putting "$(date +%F)" in between the filename and ".avi" doesn't work [22:02] gnome window manager environment [22:02] whatever [22:03] NRSail, sorry i thought you were talking about the new gnome software center [22:03] NRSail: well, details matter. there is the old gnome2. but since 2010 or such gnome provides the gnome-shell which uses the gnome3 codebase [22:03] gnome 3 yes [22:04] How can I permanently set an IP address on 16.04?

[22:05] hrm. `routable` or `routeable`? [22:05] DWSR: usually that makes the router you use [22:05] spellcheck hates both [22:05] DWSR: Behind NAT? [22:05] why are you not liking it? [22:05] Jordan_U: Sorry, link-local. This is for an internal VM network [22:05] thank k1l [22:05] secure_linux: pastebin everything [22:06] I may decide use gniome on next machine [22:06] whate are the alternatives [22:06] -i [22:06] NRSail: any linux desktop you like. ubuntu ships most of them in the repos [22:06] !flavor [22:06] Recognized Ubuntu flavors build on Ubuntu and provide a different user experience out of the box.

[22:07] DWSR: Ok, then just configure a static ip address, outside the DHCP range (that last bit is important if you don't want random unpredictable failures) via /etc/network/interfaces . [22:07] secure_linux: change the filename to be in quotes with the date bit you specified already [22:07] not always all the time to try everything new or updated [22:07] NRSail: we stick to actual technical issues in here. for chatting about ones best desktop better talk in #ubuntu-offtopic [22:07] secure_linux if you don't get an answer here, ask in #ubuntustudio [22:07] ok [22:08] --sout=file/avi:"tv_record$(date +%F).avi" [22:09] DWSR: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/network-configuration.html [22:09] spyhermit sorry, that doesn't work too [22:10] the resulting filename is "tv_recordF%.avi" [22:10] secure_linux: pastebin everything [22:10] ok [22:10] secure_linux: %F, not F% [22:11] ah yeah, that was my mistake [22:11] thanks a lot!

[22:20] peepsalot: packages.ubuntu.com links the changelog at the right side for each package [22:20] i mean when it was applied locally, not when the repo updated [22:20] peepsalot: IDK of a command that would show that, but you could grep through your apt history log file [22:20] peepsalot: yeah, look at /var/log/apt/ [22:20] /var/log/apt/history.log [22:23] ok, thanks [22:24] hope you don't rotate that one. [22:25] hi o/ [22:33] hey folks; running ubuntu 14.04 on my t420 laptop... any reason i shouldn't upgrade to ubuntu 16.04 ? it's now a point release right so most of the obvious bugs have been addressed? [22:34] can anyone point me in a direction at least with my ubuntu 16.04 ipmi sol question? [22:35] spyhermit: what was the question? [22:35] arooni, no reason for me not to check the releasenotes yourself? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes [22:35] arooni: did you read the release notes? [22:35] possible to encrypt my hard drive now (_after_) installation? [22:36] jkhl, possible maybe, but takes more time than a fresh install [22:36] i am reading them now... [22:36] nacc: I'm trying to run ipmi sol on 16.04, when it gets past loading the ramdisk, I get garbage characters, and no login prompt [22:36] if I set it to 19200, it works perfectly [22:37] OerHeks: simplest way to reinstall, keeping my data? [22:37] spyhermit: so it's a baud rate issue? [22:37] anything other than 19200 throws garbage characters. I've set the baud rate in the bios and in grub, I've tried manually overriding the agetty configs, I've reverted those now [22:37] jkhl, full disk encryption, or just your /home ? [22:37] spyhermit: sounds like a hardware limit? [22:37] OerHeks: full disk [22:37] no, because it works on 12.04 [22:38] jkhl, backup data then [22:38] cool, thanks [22:38] this is just for your /home >> http://www.howtogeek.com/116032/how-to-encrypt-your-home-folder-after-installing-ubuntu/ [22:38] nacc: yes, it's a baud rate issue, but 115200 works in the grub menu and bios, but doesn't work during the boot process. [22:39] cool [22:39] 57600 doesn't work either, it appears somewhere in the tty configuration, the baud rate does not get set properly, so it just throws garbage [22:57] hello everyone [22:57] i need some help before i throw this computer out the window [22:57] sweet, sounds good [22:58] ubuntu041: Now, that is no way to talk about your best friend . [22:58] put it on a corner of a busy street, and run away, what is your issue? [22:59] guessing he already threw it out the window. [23:00] ok so im working with network manager connecting my VPN my VPN needs to go thru port 1194 yesterday i was able to select port 1194 under advanced 'use custom gateway' today i click this option save and X out and go check if it kept the settings and no matter how many trys and going on root user i cannot click 'use custom gateway port it is not greyed out but just not selected even after a save on the root user [23:01] i can select any other option and it will save it [23:01] but not custom gateway port [23:01] what version of ubuntu, what vpn client? [23:02] ipredator and ubuntu 12 i had this working on my other ubuntu and also have had it work well with windows and arch linux [23:03] i can get it to work if i allow all ports but i shouldnt need to [23:03] i could use ferm to firewall it up so it uses 1194 but i would like to have it set in network manager [23:04] is anyone here good with virtualization? [23:05] I really have no idea. I'm guessing you'd have to check if there's an ipredator irc channel, it's not something I'm familiar with. [23:05] yes supermechacow what are you using? [23:05] SuperMechaCow:^^ that [23:05] qemu+kvm to do gpu passthrough [23:05] i posted on the forums but no bites [23:05] i'm upgrading to ubuntu 16.04 ; its asking me which default display manager to use>> i assume lightdm? [23:05] lightdm [23:06] yeah [23:06] arooni, depends what desktop ou are on [23:06] spyhermit: are you able to click the port option on your network manager [23:06] https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2332651 [23:06] SuperMechaCow: fun, but I mostly run vps stuff on an enterprisy level [23:06] let me do some poking around [23:06] i just like the default [23:06] so i assume lightdm is that default [23:06] spyhermit, I'm trying to run a windows gamer inside of my ubuntu [23:07] arooni, yea lightdm loads unity [23:07] ubuntu041: I'm not running the gui on... 99.8% of the boxes I use [23:07] thanks folks [23:07] spyhermit: thanks === dea is now known as deaincaelo [23:08] hihi. [23:08] spyhermit: maybe a network manager reset will help [23:09] SuperMechaCow: https://wiki.debian.org/VGAPassthrough <-- did you try this guide? [23:09] nope [23:10] Noob audio question. Skype is using pulse audio and my mic works fine. (one channel disabled) Discord and Curse don't, and keep disabling my mic by leveling both channels. Any suggestions? [23:10] ubuntu041: this really sounds like some kind of an issue with a setting preventing the other settings from working [23:10] but I don't have enough experience to know what would cause that. [23:10] try backing up and then blowing away the profiles and see what happens? [23:10] spyhermit, i'll read through it now. I'm on a live disk now while I move a partition [23:10] spyhermit: indeed im thinking of doing a fresh install [23:11] sorry deaincaelo, I run server side so I have no experience with that [23:12] rip btc [23:13] Thanks anyway spyhermit. Do you play minecraft? I was thinking about trying to find a good modpack to run in ubuntu. [23:15] might talk to people in #ubuntu_offtopic, I'm actually here hoping someone runs servers and has experience with IPMI SOL [23:16] fair enough. === mkv is now known as m4v === mike_ is now known as Guest2658 [23:42] hi [23:43] allo [23:44] So I installed a live USB stick with Ubuntu,in unebutin I created 1 gig persistent partition. But when I start the liveUSb the whole thing is persistent,like by magic,across reboots. It remembers my browser sessions,it remembers thing i put in my /home dir,it remembers WIFI keys,what the hell. I need it to not remember anything between reboots for security [23:46] alex5771: Why not create another user on that system, then delete the user as required...? [23:47] alex5771: I thought that is what persistent storage is for :) [23:49] alex5771: If you don't want persistance then get rid of the casper-rw partition. I'm now wondering what you were trying to accomplish by adding persistance in the first place though. What is your end goal? [23:49] bprompt: It is...however, that being said, even on the "liveUSB" data will be kept in between reboots/re-use...minor, but still data...therefore, if you really want to be secure, you create a new user. use that account, then delete the account when you're done...OR...use a CD/DVD - obviously, you can't write data to a CD/DVD... [23:49] YankDownUnder: sounds like an option :) [23:49] The goal is to have a separate partition on USB stick for persitence ext3,but everything else should not be persistent. So things which I explicitly want to store across reboots get stored [23:49] YankDownUnder: Without persistance what data are you talking about that is kept? [23:50] if i want to save a file,i will move it to that /data partition [23:50] Jordan_U: There is still residual data left in the ~/ directory. Test it, you'll see what I mean. [23:50] alex5771: That's not "persistance" then, that's just a data partition. Change the filesystem label so tha it's not "casper-rw". [23:51] where do i change it? [23:51] I've been in this situation (more than a heap of times) and the result is that I use a "persistent" USB but create/delete accounts as required...works best...FOR ME... [23:51] YankDownUnder: I have tested it, and I'm also familiar with the implementation. Your experience doesn't match my experience or understanding. unless you have a casper-rw partition. [23:52] My problem is that I dont want it to even hit the memeory chip on a stick,for security reasons,i want it all in RAM, if i loose the thing,i want to be 100% sure no one can recover my sessions. Deleting things,is an explicit action,which I might not be able to take if power is out [23:54] where is that casper-rw on a stick?is it a file or partition? === nerd is now known as Guest35510 [23:54] alex5771: I think you can change the filesystem label with GParted, if not then (carefully) "sudo tune2fs -L new_label_here /dev/sdXY". Where sdXY is the partition currently labeled casper-rw. [23:55] alex5771: It's an attribute of the filesystem on the partition. [23:56] alex5771: Also make sure that no swap partitions from your local drives are being used automatically. I don't remember off hand if Ubuntu Live systems automatically use detected swap partitions.
