murphy_does anyone have any information on editing the OEM install aka restore partition? i want to add LVM and other distros to the install00:06
murphy_there is a project.cfg and preseed.cfg but im not really sure which one to edit. ive seen a few preseed generators online but im stuck in a catch 22 situation00:07

k12sudo rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/updates/* was the solution.00:08
t4c0c4thello folks, I have a gigabyte Z77n Mobo with a realtek NIC and, while the interface is detected, it does not light up/initialize when plugged in. I've tried installing the drivers from apt-get AND realtek's autorun.sh, but still no dice. Any advice?00:10

ivanso uh don't install the San Francisco / System fonts from macOS Sierra beta on your Ubuntu, they break Ubuntu real bad as of 6 hours ago00:17
ivanthe older ones work fine00:17
YankDownUndert4c0c4t: I'm sure this is being pedantic, but have you checked in the BIOS to make sure the NIC is activated...?00:18
t4c0c4tYankDownUnder: yerp, both enabled, i may doublecheck, but, I figure if they're showing up in network manager, it's probably not a BIOS issue00:19

YankDownUndert4c0c4t: So everything's "showing up" - but what, you're unable to get the card to work - or, DOES it work, but the light just doesn't go on? (That's been an issue in the past)00:34

brian_Just installed ubuntu 16.04 from the mini.iso. I did not install a graphical desktop, but it still gives a splash screen on boot. What is needed to remove this?00:46
brian_I understand reconfiguring grub, but I've read that on systemd systems there is more that I have to do.00:47
YankDownUndert4c0c4t: Even though this "machine" is not able to connect view the onboard NIC, is the machine able to connect in some other fashion?00:47

t4c0c4tYankDownUnder: yes, the wifi on the mobo is working. I noticed that the interfaces listed in ifconfig -a (enp2s0, enp3s0) are not in /etc/network/interfaces - possible hint?00:53
YankDownUndert4c0c4t: Possible - however, that being said, have you updated the system and have you installed any of the "third-party" drivers the system requires?00:54
t4c0c4tYankDownUnder: I haven't.. a bit of a novice with ubuntu in a desktop environment - is there a guide for making sure things are installed? I did an apt-get install on the realtek driver required for the NIC, but that's about the extent of my updates/installation attempts00:55
YankDownUndert4c0c4t: Right oh - well, firstly, if you've not updated anything, open a terminal and do: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade => after that's all happy and done, you can open a terminal again (if you've had to reboot, which is a good thing, BTW) and type: sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall => reboot again (a good thing) => see if the issue is resolved...hmm?00:57

danny_Bluetooth has been a nightmare with my speaker, when I do get it to connect the audio quality is horrible unless I change the audio profile to high fidelity (a2dp_sink).  Problem is it rarely lets me change it to that and usually spits out Failed to change profile to a2dp_sink01:00

OerHeksGoldschlager, seems so, yes https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+package/fcitx-table-t901:44
GoldschlagerOerHeks: Thanks. I thought so, but wasn't 100%. Almost made my own - for use with the ol' Raspberry Pi.01:44
OerHeksnever used it myself.01:45
GoldschlagerI seen it looks like it's a bit of biatch to get rid of, given a forum I was just looking at. So not going to test it out on the laptop01:45
electron_wasterI have a question about diff <--- anyone? is it appropriate for the channel?01:47
danny_I finally got my bluetooth speaker working after rebooting my pc, then it randomly stopped working.  Now it says the device is disabled01:49
Goldschlagerwhat's diff?01:49
Ben64electron_waster: just ask01:50
electron_wasterdont asking to ask... Im using diff to check that written files to an USB stick are fine: I had found that by issuing the diff wont IO! its using a buffer or cache - if I umount the drive diff will IO on the stick. Is there a way to force the IO without umounting?01:50
Goldschlagerdanny_ what usb program you using?01:50
Ben64electron_waster: use md5sum to verify files01:51
Goldschlagerdanny_ whoops, i mean bluetooth01:51
electron_wasterBen64, MD5 would be too expensive for this01:51
danny_Goldschlager, I guess blueman? whatever is default on ubuntu mate01:51
Ben64electron_waster: that doesn't make any sense01:51
danny_Goldschlager, most of the menus just refer to it as bluetooth01:52
GoldschlagerI've had luck with bluetooth manager, you can find it in the ubuntu software01:52
danny_Goldschlager, There is a good chance I'm using that one, how do I check?01:52
electron_wasterBen64, what does not make sense? I have files lying is a FS copied to another and just wan to to check if theyre the same - but I want diff to really read the files01:53
GoldschlagerThere'll be a 2nd bluetooth icon on top right01:53
danny_Goldschlager, Also, the most common and annoying issue is that it says "Failed to change profile to a2dp_sink"01:53
Ben64electron_waster: then use md5sum, if you want the files read, that'll do it01:54
Ben64theres no additional cost01:54
Goldschlagerdanny_ That one is outta my league. Not sure what a2dp_sink is.01:54
danny_Goldschlager, All I know is that it is the audio profile that doesn't sound like garbage, its the higher fidelity of the two options01:54
Goldschlagerbut, I started using that bluetooth manager app and it made my bluetooth stuff work better01:54
Goldschlagerdanny_ It's worth a shot.01:56
Goldschlagerif nothing else, click the remove button if it still doesn't work01:56
danny_Goldschlager, I'm trying to find bluetooth manager right now01:56
electron_wasterBen64, ill have to compare the checksum :) - btw: I know diff is not doing IO cuz stick led wont blink as it does afeter umount + diff01:56

b-yeeziok03:50
PikiaHowever, it does show on the installtion page as "Free Space"03:51
Bashing-omPikia: Understandable . Look Windows on the 1st hard drive " Partition Table: gpt >>  EFI system partition          boot, esp . right . And now you want to install ubuntu onto the 2nd drive (Disk /dev/sdb: 120GB) ..

ReddyTeddyI want to see if there are chapter names in the scene selection03:53
ReddyTeddyNothing I've tried so far has given me access to the menus, just the bluray itself03:53
b-yeeziset it to gpt and you should be fine Pikia03:53
PikiaBashing-om: Mhmm I see. That makes a bit more sense. Is this becasue windows uses differnt ways of reading data from Linix?03:54
b-yeeziReddyTeddy: Did you try VLC? or Xine?03:54
ReddyTeddyTried VLC, it can play the BluRay fine, but won't let me see the menu03:55
=== OERIAS2 is now known as Aerius
b-yeeziI think you can change the view in VLC to show chapters03:56
Bashing-omPikia: NO, Windows here is not the factor . it is the RFI booting specification . The way the firmware hands off to the boot code . It is a different process between EFI and MBR ( legacy ) . Whole with effort one can do this - if willing to reset the formware each time you switch operating systems . EFI and MBR are not compatible and can not chainload the respective bootloaders .03:57

freakyyu cant resize partition without unmounting06:17
Bashing-omsho1: " 42G   38G  2,3G  95% / " so what is installed for kernels ' dpkg -l | grep linux- ' ?06:17
sho__not even if I dual booted and do something in windows?06:17
freakyyhmm, if u find a program that can resize partitions for windows ... maybe that works06:18
freakyycheck that it supports the fs u use on ur linux partition06:18
sho__bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23066497/06:19

freakyysudo apt autoremove06:21
sho__I have, and only freed 24.2 MB worth?06:22
freakyyold ones should be "not needed" anymore and should be autoremoveable06:22
freakyyi dont nkow06:22
freakyyif u need more ... do the resizing ;D06:22
sho__yeah. that is what I intend to do. is there any way to do that, with that restriction I've mentioned?06:23
freakyywhat restriction?06:23
sho__don't have CD drive and accessible flash drive.06:24
ducassesho__: you need to boot a live image to resize the root fs.06:24
mgedminsho__: you could shrink the windows partition, create a new ext4 partition in that space, and move some of your data over into it06:24
freakyyah yea ... if u boot into windows ... that doesnt work cuz then that partition is mounted and cant be resized06:24
mgedminbe sure to create a backup any time you're messing with partitions, just in case06:25
freakyyhe cant he cant even make live dvd ;D06:25
mgedminalternatively, use tools like Baobab to see why you've got 38 gigs used -- maybe you'll find something you can remove06:25
sho__mgedmin, not an option right now?06:26
mgedminwaht is?06:26

sho__like VMware?06:27

freakyyi dont konw if that work sthough06:29

hateball!nomodeset | Eth3r06:49
ubottuEth3r: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter06:49

sho__ducasse: so I reinstall ubuntu. Before I install ubuntu, I made sure of making /home and /root on different partition. But maybe that isn't the case?06:50
hateballEth3r: So, use nomodeset to get a GUI so you can install. Then once it is installed and you reboot you need nomodeset again until you have proper drivers installed06:50
sho__Sorry, it is reinstalled.06:50
hateballEth3r: And to get the latest drivers from a !ppa you can run this oneliner in a terminal on your installed ubuntu: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-37006:50
Eth3rnow im installing it from usb should be ok? didnt finish reading yet06:50
lucas_aiWhen I run rsync -vr fromDirectory toDirectory, to backup files to an external drive, it takes too long to check the deltas for the whole file list, and my drive gets disconnected. Every time I run it again, it doesn't get to send new files because checking for changes takes so long and always starts from the same place. Any ideas on how to continue transfering files, but faster or avoiding the initial06:51
lucas_ailong checks?06:51
ducassesho__: 38g used on the root partition indicates to me that there is _something_ there that takes up a lot of space. maybe /home or vm images.06:51
Eth3ri am loveing linux i can update my driver from cli!? that is sweet!06:51
sho__yeah. and the other partition is empty, so I think I messed up somewhere in the process of reinstalling.06:53
antwoodnot sure if sho__ has more or less the same request as that of mine. I basically have a remote server and / and /home needs to swapped. Like the partiottions and now swap memory :)06:53

hateballBitkid_: What drivers do you need to load?06:59
VorapSorry :$06:59
Blue1ooops sorry07:00
Bitkid_well not sure, systeam seems weird... i think there is a bunch of missing drivers..07:00
Bitkid_is there a way to know what drivers i need?07:00
hateballBitkid_: Seems weird is not a good description. What is not working as intended?07:00
Bitkid_graphics seem off, usb not working07:01
hateballBitkid_: If there are proprietary drivers your system needs you can run "ubuntu-drivers devices" in a terminal and it will inform you07:01

Bitkid_ok http://paste.ubuntu.com/23066573/07:04
Bitkid_ya, so im thinking maby something with the driver07:04
hateballBitkid_: to fix your GPU, run this in a terminal: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-37007:04
hateballand once it is all done, reboot to have it use the new driver07:05
Bitkid_sweet! ok07:05
hateballBitkid_: the intel microcode: sudo apt install intel-microcode07:05
Bitkid_so this is a new systeam, when i boot of usb i go thr an error then finaly loads the trial. i installed it before but it just gose to this thing ... grub i think07:05
hateballBitkid_: Is the system installed or are you on a live-usb?07:06
Bitkid_live usb / trial option07:06
hateballBitkid_: Right. Then you cant install any drivers07:07
Bitkid_when i try oem install or install stuck on gr: error07:07
hateballBitkid_: try booting with nomodeset first07:07
hateball!nomodeset | Bitkid_07:07

Bitkid_do i have to add it to the usb?07:07
Bitkid_oh sweet ok let me read link07:07
hateballBitkid_: it's a kernel option that should let you boot and install. then you boot with nomodeset again on your install, and install the proper drivers with the oneliner I gave you07:09

BlackDaleknone of the USB 3.0 (blue) ports on my computer are working with ubuntu 15.10 (kernel 4.2.0-41-generic). Devices are getting power and pointing devices/flash drives etc. all light up their LEDs... but devices are not detected by system pointers are frozen on screen etc.07:52
sho__so... any indicator of whether it is done formatting or not, ducasse, bekks?07:52
ducasseBlackDalek: 15.10 is eol07:52
BlackDaleklsusb shows nothing connected to computer07:52
ducassesho__: there shouldn't be any, it should finish without errors.07:52
ikoniaBlackDalek: what devices are you plugging in07:52
ikoniaooh yes, 15.1007:53
sho__the circle is still spinning. is that means the drive hasn't been completely formatted?07:53
BlackDalekikonia, every conceivable USB device... mice, usb memory stick, external hdd, bluetooth dongle.. none work in the USB3.0 ports. All devices work in the USB2.0 ports.07:53
ducassesho__: i never use the disks gui, is there no output?07:55
ikoniaBlackDalek: ducasse is right though, 15.10 is EOL, support has ended, sorry07:55
BlackDalekikonia, I know 15.10 is eol, but a laptop, also running 15.10 has working USB3.0 port. Thought might be some simple reason why they don't work on the desktop computer. :/07:56
sho__mm... can you open your disks GUI and see whether there is a spinning icon beside the hard disk?07:57
ikoniaBlackDalek: yes, its EOL which means end of support too07:57
sho__if that doesn't inconvenience you...07:57
BlackDalekikonia, I guess I'll upgrade it to 16.04 and see if the USB ports magically start working.07:58

pwnif i give me sudo password, it says authentication failed.09:26

HoolaHooppwn: then its a software centre glitch I guess switch over09:27

pwnpoint is i can't put my sudo password, it wont work09:28
bekkspwn: So which command are you running there?09:28
gnyrftahateball: i did make uninstall, the alsa package to install, would it be alsa-base?09:28

HoolaHooppwn: we understood that now we dont know what is causing that problem so in the meantime use apt or synaptic if somewhere else can help you troubleshoot then cool. But in the meanwhile use apt or synaptic.09:29

popeyBenSolo|Cell: people have been saying that for years, and it's still just as untrue as it was when it was first suggested as a joke.10:09
BenSolo|CellSo you know this for sure?10:09
BenSolo|CellCause it seems beneficial for canonical.10:10
ikoniareally doesn't10:10
teemoBetter for Canonical to continue to contribute to the Linux kernel, benefiting themselves in that way10:10
teemoAssuming having its own kernel is inherently somehow better for canonical/ubuntu is completely incorrect and missing the point.10:11
popeyBenSolo|Cell: yes, it's nonsense10:11
BenSolo|CellI guess if Redhat never did it,  Ubuntu won't.10:11

sho__*window.10:16
rp2I have a support question.10:18
popeysho__: not sure I understand what you're asking. yes, the window that has focus, is the focused window..10:18
rp2is there any way I can see how long a given process has been blocking on the current system call it is trying to execute?10:18
akiksho__: xdotool has "getwindowfocus" which might be what you're looking for10:19
rp2I have an application in which prcesses issue flock()s, I want to lok when they start and terminate10:19
rp2but I can't change the application code10:19

brancaleoneany idea on how find out what is blocking the normal boot ?10:21
bekksCheck your netorking config?10:22
sho__Erm... I am not a programmer, nor I am fluent in bash. I am searching for ways to automatically create a log for it, but doesn't know how to capture the event? my programming experience is just scientific programming/data analysis.10:23
popeysho__: a log for what? a log of which is the current window focussed, with date/timestamps?10:23
sho__yep. the moment a window is focused.10:23
sho__or is there such log?10:24
popeysho__: it's do-able in a script, sure.10:24

wildmanroni did the upgrade to 16.04 and the system wouldn't wake up so i formated the drive and reinstalled 14.04 now it wont wake up it use to be ok now not so much.13:09
xroHi, what tool do you use to manipulate JKS keystore ?13:11
danang_some suggest to disable usb3 support with boot option noxhci-port-switch , compile kernel without usb3 support or upgrade to kernel 4.6/4.713:11
BluesKajwildmanron, sleep or suspend?13:11
wildmanronwhen the system goes to sleep after the time where you don't use the system and it blanks the screen well it wont wake up from that anymore and i never had that trouble before with 14.04 till i upgraded the system13:12
wildmanronthen when i reinstalled 14.04 now when it blanks the screen it wont come back on i have to power off the system then back on again to use it13:13
danang_i upgraded to kernel 4.7 and seem suspend to ram fine, occasionally freeze though13:13
BluesKajwildmanron, i don't let the system timer put the pc to suspend/sleep. Think using pm-suspend in the terminal works best , then just a keystroke will wake it when needed13:14
danang_freeze when i remove battery on suspend state, freeze on waking up13:14

Harisnope. I think it has to be separately installed13:58
PiciHaris: is  a2enmod ssl   failing?13:58
karlroveducasse: thing is the ssh connection itself is ipv4 since i dont have ipv6 at home, its just the forwarding. or do you mean disable v6 in ssh alltogether?13:58
Harischecking13:58
ducassekarlrove: with -4 it should be forced to use ipv4 only13:59

sho__hello14:24
sho__I want to request help uninstalling from tarball? do I have to download the tarball again if I delete the folder I use to make it?14:25
akiksho__: your question is a bit weird. if you have the tar file that you unpacked, the directory contents are in the tar file14:27
maxbAm I missing something, or has the graphical configuration applet for keyboard layouts disappeared in Xenial?14:28
sho__yep.14:28
sho__akik... uninstalling from tar file that has been made that I am confused about.14:29
akiksho__: usually a tar file is just a copy of a directory structure14:29
akiksho__: i'm unsure what you mean by uninstalling from tar file14:30
sho__mm... Just assume I am  just a beginner at ubuntu.14:30
akiksho__: so what do you mean? :)14:32
ducassesho__: you want to do a 'make uninstall'? does the software in question even support that?14:32
sho__so, I unpacked a tar.gz file, ./configure, then make, then make install. I confess that I don't know what I did and just following the instructions.14:33
ducassesho__: yes, but what is it you want to do _now_?14:34
sho__ducasse: remove it from my PC.14:35
sypherit would seem that sho__ wants to do the equivalent of a "make uninstall," interpreting from previous statements.14:35
DArqueBishopsho__: try running "make uninstall" from the source/build directory.14:35
sho__done.14:37
sho__now I just need to remove all of the file and folders?14:38
syphersho__: That should have already done so.14:38
sho__huh?14:38
sho__it is still there?14:39
syphersho__: You're being very vague with your questions. Please be specific.14:40
AntonMIs what still there?14:40
ducassesho__: the source directory you will need to remove manually, but any installed files should now be gone.14:40
sho__ok.14:40
sho__wait. So, as long as the program exists, its existence depends on the existence of the uncompressed tar folder?14:43

ksftBashing-om: or "in-use"18:52
atralhea-YankDownUnder: the problem is, I had windows with Ubuntu, moved the windows 350mb partition (I think its for the bootloader or something) and windows broke, so I formatted it partitions, I did not change partition table, but now it says it needs another partition table to work18:54
Bashing-omksft: In the file in the section - Section "ServerLayout" - is it  Inactive "nvidia"  ?18:54
atralhea-YankDownUnder: how can I check what is my partition table now? and is the partition table for all partitions of a hard drive? or just one partition of it?18:54

Bashing-omksft: Sorry, to be clear, this cat /etc/X11/Xorg.conf is the control file here in question ., post that one .19:00
ksftohh19:01
YankDownUnderxcyclist: GRUB has more functionality than does "lilo" - I was in the "school" that refused to move from lilo for a long time...however, especially with a vast array of different partition layouts - and drives - and EFI/UEFI setups, GRUB works heaps better...19:01
ksftBashing-om: doesn't exist19:01
xcyclistThank you.19:01
xcyclistIs there any performance advantage to Lilo?19:02
ducasseatralhea-: mbr or gpt doesn't really affect multiboot, except that gpt can have more partitions.19:02
YankDownUnderxcyclist: Mmmmm...no. :)19:02
xcyclistI wonder what docker uses?19:03
Bashing-omksft: Got to have it for being able to switch graphic's sets ! .., try and make up one ' sudo nvidia-xconfig ' Reboot - without the boot parameter in force . now see what nvidia-prime will do .19:04
ksftBashing-om: I don't have nvidia-prime installed now19:04
atralhea-ducasse: the problems is that I need to change partition table to gpt, but its risky, I can use MBR to have windows beside my ubuntu (for some apps I need it), windows is now supporting GPT or MBR partition tables, not msdos. I just... hate that I need it!19:04

ksftBashing-om: that's the only way I've found to log in normally19:06
atralhea-ducasse: I can fool it with installing 8.1 first, and then upgrading to 10, so I have win10 on msdos partition table! thats what im going to do. can I bring back bootloader to be able to boot ubuntu, with a live ubuntu?19:07
ducasseatralhea-: i don't understand what you mean.19:07
atralhea-ducasse: which part?19:08
Bashing-omksft: Tell ya what .. let's see if we can get the system up graphics wise with the default open source graphic's driver . Yeah ?19:09
ksftsure19:09
ducasseatralhea-: all of it :) ubuntu can use both mbr and gpt, if that's what you mean. you might need to reinstall the bootloader if you convert, though.19:09
ksftBashing-om: how?19:10
ducasseatralhea-: the big deal is really whether you want to boot in legacy or uefi mode. some machines can only run uefi on gpt.19:10
atralhea-ducasse: I have msdos partition table, and I have ubuntu installed, I wanted to install windows (10), but it needs GPT partition table, but windows 8.1 would be installed fine on msdos partition table, so I will install windows 8.1, upgrade to 10, and then, installing windows problem solved.19:11
ducasseatralhea-: maybe, i know nothing about windows.19:12
atralhea-ducasse: then my laptop will directly boot to windows, so I need to bring the linux bootloader back, I can do it with a live disk, right?19:12
ducasseatralhea-: yes.19:12

exezinHey, I've got a friend who recently built a new rig and is having a lot of trouble getting ubuntu to boot (and lubuntu)20:28
exezinHe is using a modern i3, with intel hd 53020:28
exezinAfter grub he just gets a black screen20:28
exezinAre there any known issues with Intel HD 530 and Ubuntu-based distros?20:29
Bashing-om!nomodeset | exezin20:29
ubottuexezin: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter20:29
exezinBashing-om: Tried that20:29
exezinNo luck20:29
exezinI'll have him give it another go though20:29
k1l_ksft: "echo $(dpkg --list | grep linux-image | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -V | sed -n '/'`uname -r`'/q;p') $(dpkg --list | grep linux-headers | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -V | sed -n '/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\([0-9.-]*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/q;p') | xargs sudo apt-get purge"20:29
k1l_ksft: that should remove all old kernels and headers in one go.20:30
Bashing-omexezin: that "nomodeset' does not apply to Intel graphics .20:30
paracusiahello, I have an MD-RAID-5 with 4 drives. Everytime I want to access it and the drives have spun down, they spin up one after the other, resulting in about 30second delay. Is there any way to tell the kernel that he spins up all together?20:30
exezinBashing-om: uh, why did you suggest it then20:31
exezinWe've been struggling for like two weeks trying to get this damn thing working :/20:31
Bashing-omexezin: I responded prior to seeing that Intel is a factor here .20:31
exezinOh alright20:31
k1l_ksft: after that make sure "ubuntu-desktop" and "linux-generic" are still installed. then you could try a reboot. i need to have dinner now.20:32
ksftk1l_: "Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Abort."20:33
k1l_ksft: it should list what it wants to remove. if that is all that old kernels and headers press yes20:33
ksftk1l_: I don't have a chance to answer20:34
ksftit automatically aborts20:34
k1l_ksft: ok, wait. looks like xargs doesnt want user interaction.20:34

ksftI might've reinstalled bumblebee when I was trying to run things on the nvidia graphics card21:42

ksftAbe_: 14.0421:46
Abe_mine got a black screen too cuz I have also optimus21:46
ksftI don't think I have optimus21:47
Abe_I figured out it was the kernel version that gave me a black screen somehow, went back to my old ubuntu version with old kernel now everything works again21:47
Abe_or nvidia-prime what do you have for a graphics card. do you have this intel nvidia setup right?21:48
ksftAbe_: that's right21:48
ksftit only seems to boot correctly when I have no nvidia packages installed21:48

ksftrebooting..21:50
ksft...*21:50
Abe_I would remove the driver first with apt-get remove nvidia*21:50
Abe_maybe try a different driver. I got a black screen cuz i upgraded and I had this ver. 4.x kernel and i wouldn't run with it. when i went back to 3.13 everything worked again. so in my case it was the kernel21:52
Abe_iy*21:52
Abe_it*21:52
ksftso it boots when I have no nvidia* packages installed21:52
ksftotherwise, the screen goes black21:53

Abe_you already do it it's okay21:55
ksftI assumed it was just using the Intel graphics card21:55

ksftoh, I thought nouveau was specifically for Nvidia graphics cards21:55
foul_owlWhat strategy do people generally use for naming internal-only servers from public servers? ie, wiki01.foo.com would be ext, vs wiki01.int.foo.com would be internal only, however it looks ugly imo and you have to type more.

ksftso how do I run things with the Nvidia one?21:56
ScrewedUpI wrote my storage space over into swap... is there a way to reverse it or recover data21:56
Abe_ksft: you have a laptop right? to get nvidia cards working you need to disable secure boot in your UEFI "Bios" too21:56

Wulffoul_owl: I registered a real domain with a short name21:56
ksftdid that already21:56

DC85I have a Ubuntu Server 14.04 with a root fs within a raid1-two disk array. Then i have a raid10 array for data, 4hdd+1spare. Someone did a hard shutdown (power button hold) on the system and the system started to hang on boot after grub - Got a blank screen and have to hit ctrl+d to boot. Looks like the powerdown messed the raid10 array.23:02

danny__I have unbuntu Mate installed but my version is older than the new release... When I installed directly the new release I had issues with my WIFI... I wonder... if i upgrade to the new version, will I keep my ancient wifi drivers or the new release will brake it again?23:09

DC85lordcirth im afraid something wrong might have been written to those disks oh my23:12
lordcirthDC85, And this is one of the many reasons that "RAID is not backups" :(23:12
DC85lordcirth the mdadm --examine now tells me that the unwanted drives are part of the wrong array :(23:15
DC85and i cant add them to the wanted array because i stoped it23:15

mentocHas anyone had any luck with running apt-get upgrade in the cron?23:37
mentocI'm pretty sure it's a bad idea23:37
mentocbut I've been told to make it happen :/23:37
ksftBashing-om: I think so23:38
OerHekssoee, you better look for their irc channel then. inviting people here to use it, is not done.23:38

OerHeks.. with a huge kernel, lite?23:42
ksftBashing-om: how?23:43
ksftnot sure if this is relevant: I also have Windows installed, but it won't connect to the internet23:44
Bashing-omksft: We tell grub where the config files are located . see if the system boots .23:44
ksftokay, how?23:46
mentocI found a configuration group called Unattended-Upgrades in a few files in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d, but I don't see it in the man page for apt.conf23:47
mentocare they used for the same system?23:47

Bashing-omksft: very slowly and very carefully . boot back to the grub boot menu, this time is the 'c' key for a (C)ommand line interface . ya get a 'grub >' prompt . we need to know where the files are lovated . we start looking by what is returned from the terminal commnad ' ls ' .23:49
mentoclol23:49
mentocjust use bash23:49
ksftBashing-om: (hd0) (hd0,gpt9) (hd0,gpt8) [...] (hd0,gpt1)23:50
