[00:00] <k12> That's how I got that error.
[00:00] <Adam_M> What was the error?
[00:00] <k12> dpkg: error: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0012' near line 0:
[00:00] <k12>  newline in field name '#padding'
[00:05] <Adam_M> Did you try deleting the update that's causing the problem?
[00:05] <Adam_M> then reconfiguring dpkg
[00:06] <Mojtaba> Hello, I am using system proxy by ssh, and the problem is that thunderbird gives me connection refused for gmail. Do you know what should I do?
[00:06] <murphy_> does anyone have any information on editing the OEM install aka restore partition? i want to add LVM and other distros to the install
[00:07] <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 situation
[00:08] <k12> Fixed it.
[00:08] <k12> sudo rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/updates/* was the solution.
[00:10] <t4c0c4t> hello 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?
[00:17] <ivan> so 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 ago
[00:17] <ivan> the older ones work fine
[00:18] <YankDownUnder> t4c0c4t: I'm sure this is being pedantic, but have you checked in the BIOS to make sure the NIC is activated...?
[00:19] <t4c0c4t> YankDownUnder: yerp, both enabled, i may doublecheck, but, I figure if they're showing up in network manager, it's probably not a BIOS issue
[00:20] <t4c0c4t> they have MAC addys after all
[00:21] <OerHeks> ivan, oh, you KNEW the source of your issue :-D
[00:21] <OerHeks> LoLZ
[00:28] <YokoBR> hi guys and gals!
[00:29] <YokoBR> Could someone tell me a good web interface to admin an ubuntu server? It's set up with mysql, nginx and hhvm already
[00:29] <YokoBR> must be open source
[00:30] <OerHeks> YokoBR, you better reask in #ubuntu-server
[00:31] <Adam_M> You'll get a better response in #ubuntu-server
[00:34] <YankDownUnder> t4c0c4t: 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] <YokoBR> ok, thanks
[00:35] <vitlok> Is bluetooth headphones work with latest ubuntu LTS now?
[00:36] <blendergeek> I'm trying to run ubuntu-sdk and I keep getting the following error: "This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "ubuntumirclient"."
[00:37] <t4c0c4t> YankDownUnder: doesn't work - shows 'disconnected' though it's plugged in (and re-plugged-in many times)
[00:38] <OerHeks> !info qtdeclarative5-qtmir-plugin
[00:39] <OerHeks> i think you missed this one, blendergeek ^^
[00:40] <blendergeek> I just installed that package, still get the same error. Do I need to reboot my computer?
[00:40] <OerHeks> blendergeek, not reboot, logout/login perhaps ..
[00:41] <blendergeek> I'll try that.
[00:46] <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?
[00:47] <brian_> I understand reconfiguring grub, but I've read that on systemd systems there is more that I have to do.
[00:47] <YankDownUnder> t4c0c4t: 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] <brian_> I've been told to run the following:
[00:48] <OerHeks> even on systemd this tutor is valid, edit grub, and run update-grub >. http://askubuntu.com/questions/129738/can-i-disable-the-ubuntu-splashscreen
[00:48] <brian_> sudo systemctl enable multi-user.target --force
[00:48] <brian_> sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target
[00:49] <brian_> OerHeks: that makes sense. This post wants me to change runlevels: http://askubuntu.com/questions/16371/how-do-i-disable-x-at-boot-time-so-that-the-system-boots-in-text-mode#79682
[00:50] <brian_> I'll try your suggestion and see what happens
[00:50] <OerHeks> sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target # should work fine too.
[00:51] <brian_> OerHeks: any reason to use one over the other?
[00:51] <ivan> OerHeks: I didn't. it was not fun to track down
[00:52] <brian_> I understand the grub one, but not the systemctl one, so I guess I should stick to what I understand. :)
[00:53] <OerHeks> brian_, as it is enabled already, you only need the 2nd line
[00:53] <brian_> ok
[00:53] <t4c0c4t> YankDownUnder: 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?
[00:54] <YankDownUnder> t4c0c4t: Possible - however, that being said, have you updated the system and have you installed any of the "third-party" drivers the system requires?
[00:55] <t4c0c4t> YankDownUnder: 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 attempts
[00:57] <YankDownUnder> t4c0c4t: 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?
[01:00] <hikka> dsa
[01:00] <t4c0c4t> YankDownUnder: shall do, thanks!
[01:00] <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_sink
[01:01] <danny_> I have to go through this every single time I want to use my speaker
[01:01] <danny_> using Ubuntu Mate
[01:03] <malabaris> si quieres ganar mirando anuncios mira esto: https://www.facebook.com/malabarista72/
[01:13] <t4c0c4t> YankDownUnder: update / upgrade didn't help.  second step didn't update *any* drivers :(

[01:16] <oplex> Hey all! I am about to install DNS and create a DC on ubuntu server
[01:16] <oplex> using ESXi on a Dell R710. It will be a very small network maybe 10
[01:16] <oplex> nodes or less. I plan on setting up file sharing and managing active
[01:16] <oplex> directory through windows snapins. Any tips on setup precautions or
[01:16] <oplex> tutorials that could help assist me in getting started?
[01:23] <blendergeek> I'm trying to run ubuntu-sdk but keep getting this error: 'This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "ubuntumirclient" in "".

[01:24] <blendergeek> I tried installing qtdeclarative5-qtmir-plugin, and then reinstalling ubuntu-sdk but still the problem persists.
[01:27] <trism> blendergeek: looks like it is in either qtubuntu-desktop or qtubuntu-android
[01:27] <YankDownUnder> t4c0c4t: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/network-configuration.html => hints/tips
[01:28] <danny_> now Ubuntu won't let me disconnect from the bluetooth device
[01:28] <blendergeek> I have qtubuntu-desktop. qtubuntu-android conflicts with qtubuntu-desktop. I will try install qtubuntu-android and see what happens.
[01:28] <danny_> and won't let me even try to choose an audio profile for it
[01:29] <blendergeek> Sorry I wass confused there. I don't have qtubuntu-desktop. I am installing it now.
[01:40] <Goldschlager> hello
[01:41] <Goldschlager> Does anyone know what fcitx-table-t9 does
[01:42] <Goldschlager> Is it the T9 predictive text? Like the ol' cell phones used to use?
[01:43] <electron_waster> iuhuuuu
[01:44] <OerHeks> Goldschlager, seems so, yes https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+package/fcitx-table-t9
[01:44] <Goldschlager> OerHeks: Thanks. I thought so, but wasn't 100%. Almost made my own - for use with the ol' Raspberry Pi.
[01:45] <OerHeks> never used it myself.
[01:45] <Goldschlager> I 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 laptop
[01:47] <electron_waster> I have a question about diff <--- anyone? is it appropriate for the channel?
[01:49] <danny_> I finally got my bluetooth speaker working after rebooting my pc, then it randomly stopped working.  Now it says the device is disabled
[01:49] <Goldschlager> what's diff?
[01:50] <Ben64> electron_waster: just ask
[01:50] <electron_waster> dont 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] <Goldschlager> danny_ what usb program you using?
[01:51] <Ben64> electron_waster: use md5sum to verify files
[01:51] <Goldschlager> danny_ whoops, i mean bluetooth
[01:51] <electron_waster> Ben64, MD5 would be too expensive for this
[01:51] <danny_> Goldschlager, I guess blueman? whatever is default on ubuntu mate
[01:51] <Ben64> electron_waster: that doesn't make any sense
[01:52] <danny_> Goldschlager, most of the menus just refer to it as bluetooth
[01:52] <Goldschlager> I've had luck with bluetooth manager, you can find it in the ubuntu software
[01:52] <danny_> Goldschlager, There is a good chance I'm using that one, how do I check?
[01:53] <electron_waster> Ben64, 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 files
[01:53] <Goldschlager> There'll be a 2nd bluetooth icon on top right
[01:53] <danny_> Goldschlager, Also, the most common and annoying issue is that it says "Failed to change profile to a2dp_sink"
[01:54] <Ben64> electron_waster: then use md5sum, if you want the files read, that'll do it
[01:54] <Ben64> theres no additional cost
[01:54] <Goldschlager> danny_ 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 options
[01:54] <Goldschlager> but, I started using that bluetooth manager app and it made my bluetooth stuff work better
[01:56] <Goldschlager> danny_ It's worth a shot.
[01:56] <Goldschlager> if nothing else, click the remove button if it still doesn't work
[01:56] <danny_> Goldschlager, I'm trying to find bluetooth manager right now
[01:56] <electron_waster> Ben64, ill have to compare the checksum :) - btw: I know diff is not doing IO cuz stick led wont blink as it does afeter umount + diff
[01:58] <danny_> Goldschlager, I could not find a package called anything like bluetooth manager
[02:01] <Goldschlager> danny_ are you using the ubuntu software program?
[02:02] <Goldschlager> danny_ or apt-get?
[02:02] <danny_> Goldschlager, I used "apt search blueman | less"
[02:03] <danny_> Goldschlager, oops it was "apt search bluetooth | less"
[02:03] <Goldschlager> danny_ I never found it that way either, had to use the ubuntu software app
[02:04] <OerHeks> install synaptic, much better detailed softwarecenter
[02:04] <OerHeks> !info synaptic
[02:06] <Goldschlager> just apt-get install synaptic?
[02:06] <Goldschlager> mine showed it was 11mb
[02:08] <danny_> Goldschlager, Well I couldn't find it in synaptic either and ubuntu software center doesn't seem to be able to search
[02:09] <danny_> Goldschlager, Oh I found it, the one called bluetooth manager is just Blueman
[02:09] <danny_> Goldschlager, so its what I've been using
[02:09] <Goldschlager> Well, that's the one I use
[02:09] <Goldschlager> danny_ Oh, mine is seperate from the pre-installed bluetooth icon
[02:11] <ksft> I was here a while ago for help getting my graphics cards to work.
[02:11] <ksft> I'm on a laptop with an integrated and a dedicated graphics card.
[02:11] <ksft> With help from people here, I got games to run on the dedicated one, but there's one game in particular that's started performing horibly recently.
[02:11] <ksft> I think it's running on the integrated one now.
[02:12] <ksft> I don't know what changed.
[02:12] <JHOSMAN> Hi, I'm using Kickstart to perform an unattended installation of Ubuntu, but I have several problems when you start the installation starts in graphical mode, and not in text mode, I have to manually enter some values that have already been set in the file ks.cfg  I can do to resolve this? https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/installation-guide/i386/ch04s06.html
[02:15] <elliot1> hello
[02:19] <JHOSMAN> .
[02:19] <elliot1> how do i get the cli version of emacs
[02:20] <danny_> elliot1, emacs -nw
[02:20] <elliot1> works! thank you
[02:24] <ksft> elliot1: Why did you want that?
[02:26] <elliot1> me?
[02:27] <ksft> …yes?
[02:27] <elliot1> i have a sudden love for cli apps
[02:28] <elliot1> I'm even chatting from weechat right now
[02:28] <elliot1> downloading a cli torrent app as well
[02:29] <ksft> elliot1: It's recommended that you don't do that with Emacs.
[02:30] <Bashing-om> ksft: - lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' - to know the driver .
[02:30] <ksft> I forget why, but you aren't supposed to.
[02:30] <elliot1> hmm, actually i did some googling, someone mentioned its better to get emacs24-nox since its the cli version no gui
[02:30] <ksft> Bashing-om: I don't see the dedicated graphics card listed there.
[02:30] <ksft> elliot1: #emacs might be helpful.
[02:31] <c_> nick barnabas
[02:32] <Bashing-om> ksft: You wont . that is " in use ' . If ya want to see what both set's are - lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D' - .
[02:32] <ksft> Bashing-om: what am I looking for?
[02:33] <Bashing-om> ksft: Reprase your question ?? I am answering as best I know how .
[02:34] <ksft> Bashing-om: How do I get the game to use the dedicated one?
[02:35] <Bashing-om> ksft: In  the GUI ( nvidia-settings ??) change the graphic's set and restart the GUI .
[02:35] <ksft> Bashing-om: how do I use nvidia-settings?
[02:36] <Bashing-om> ksft: We do not even know what graphics you have .. pastebin - lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D' - for better advise.
[02:37] <ksft> Bashing-om: I think this is the relevant part:
[02:37] <ksft> 01:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM107M [GeForce GTX 960M] (rev ff)
[02:39] <Bashing-om> ksft: Yeah .. IF this is hybrid - which has yet to be known to me - then you should have "nvidia-settings ' in the GUI .
[02:39] <ksft> Bashing-om: I also have an integrated Intel graphics card.
[02:39] <ksft> I can run nvidia-settings, but I don't know how to use the GUI.
[02:40] <Goldschlager> elliot1: http://askubuntu.com/questions/23645/how-do-i-download-the-command-line-emacs-instead-of-the-gui-one
[02:40] <elliot1> yeah i just read that
[02:40] <elliot1> i got emacs-nox instead of the -nw thing
[02:40] <Bashing-om> ksft: I do not run Nvidia, so I can not advise better .
[02:41] <elliot1> running good so far,
[02:41] <Goldschlager> any difference between the 2?
[02:43] <elliot1> dont see one so far, then again im just learning emacs
[02:44] <Bashing-om> ksft: My mistake, it is nvidia-prime we want . Is it installed ' dpkg -l nvidia-prime ' ?
[02:46] <Bashing-om> ksft: ^^ and for gamming on 16.04 I understand one wants the 364 version driver or better for Nvidia .
[02:46] <ksft> Bashing-om: It isn't installed
[02:46] <ksft> I'm on 14.04
[02:46] <ksft> I plan to upgrade soon
[02:46] <ranjeet> hi
[02:46] <vahe> hi, ssh works if I connect eth0 if you connect to the Internet with wlan0 not working , ssh: connect to host 192.168.0.101 port 22: No route to host ubuntu unity
[02:49] <Bashing-om> ksft: we ned some way to control the graphic's sets . nvidia-prime is the preferred method . Before proceeding . show ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia | nc termbin.com 9999 ' so I know what is installed and NO conflicts . The result is a URL back in terminal . Pass that link back here .
[02:50] <ksft> Bashing-om: okay
[02:50] <ksft> I just installed nvidia-prime
[02:50] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/n60t
[02:52] <Bashing-om> ksft: Ouch, ouch ! .. all kinds of conflicts .. even BumbleBee ! . Want to wipe all .. and start all over ??
[02:52] <ksft> Bashing-om: if it'll help, sure
[02:52] <ksft> I went through a lot of combinations of packages installed until I found one that worked, and then I avoided touching it.
[02:54] <Bashing-om> ksft: K. we wipe amd re-install . how heavy of a gammer are you .. is gamming performance critical ?
[02:55] <ksft> Bashing-om: not so much, but I would like to get more than 10 fps in this one game
[02:55] <ksft> Bashing-om: why?
[02:56] <Bashing-om> ksft: Well .. the driver that Nvidia recommens is available to you in a PPA . However, what we have in the repo may do just fine for your use case . Gammers do say they get better results from the later version drivers .
[02:57] <ksft> Bashing-om: okay, how do I remove all the packages I need to remove?
[03:01] <Bashing-om> ksft: ' sudo apt purge nvidia* ; sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf ; sudo apt purge bumble* ; sudo apt update ; sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo reboot ' . Will install the driver that the system thinks is best from what it has presently to choose from ( we can enlarge this selection ) .
[03:02] <ksft> running…
[03:13] <ksft> Bashing-om: I definitely need to reboot?
[03:14] <Bashing-om> ksft: Affirmed .. for the graphics driver to load .
[03:14] <ksft> okay
[03:14] <ksft> it's still running
[03:15] <Bashing-om> ksft: A lot of updates ? should not take that long otherwise .
[03:15] <Rexy> Anyone run into an issue before where LightDM locks and when I try to log back in all I set is a password without a user?
[03:16] <etzerd> hello all, how can I increase  the icons size on the menu for Ubuntu Mate?
[03:16] <elliot-59> sorry, is there a lubuntu specific channel? or this one covers all flavors?
[03:16] <Ben64> elliot-59: probably #lubuntu but yes this covers all of ubuntu support
[03:17] <etzerd> on ubuntu Mate beta version 16.10 that can be done on the MateTweak,but on the stable version of ubuntu it doesn't where to increase the icon size on the menu.
[03:18] <elliot-59> im trying to update lxpanel to 0.8.2 but its only up to 8.1 on the repos, i downloaded a zip with the new version but im not sure how to install it?
[03:18] <Rexy> elliot-59: I'd extract the files and go from there
[03:19] <Rexy> No ones ever run into the issue I'm having with LightDM? Cant seem to find anything on google
[03:21] <elliot-59> i did, i have a folder with a bunch of things, theres an install-sh file which seems to do nothing, a configure one that created extrea files in the folder the first time but now does nothing, and a compile file which does nothing either
[03:24] <ksft> Bashing-om: "E: Failed to fetch http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian/pool/main/m/mono/libmono-system-windows-forms4.0-cil_4.4.2.11-0xamarin1_all.deb  Hash Sum mismatch"

[03:25] <ksft> I'm going to assume that doesn't matter and reboot
[03:26] <Bashing-om> ksft: Well, That ain't good, now is it . Lemme check the mono-project source .
[03:27] <etzerd> hello all, how can I increase  the icons size on the menu for Ubuntu Mate?
[03:27] <etzerd> on ubuntu Mate beta version 16.10 that can be done on the MateTweak,but on the stable version of ubuntu it doesn't where to increase the icon size on the menu.
[03:28] <Bashing-om> ksft: I do not see that http://download.mono-project.com/repo supports ubuntu . You are on your on as I do not even know how to back out of it.
[03:28] <Bashing-om> ksft: on/own*
[03:30] <etzerd> ok, it seem like nobody can help me on that.
[03:30] <ksft> Bashing-om: I'm not going to worry about Mono for now.
[03:30] <ksft> I'm about to reboot.
[03:31] <Pikia> currently trying to Dual Boot WIndows 7 and Ubuntu. I've several HDD in my rig and I can't tell which is which. THey are all named /dev/sdb1 ntfs or simialr.
[03:31] <Bashing-om> ksft: K, but that debian repo may be the source of the Hash Sum mismatch error condition .
[03:32] <b-yeezi> Pikia: if you do lsblk in linux terminal you should be able to tell the difference
[03:34] <Pikia> Thank you b-yeezi. One more question. I frist instailled windows 7 and shrunk one of the HDD. I never allocated the memory. Will that cause Linix to not be able to "see" it?
[03:34] <Pikia> I'm asking as I can't find it using lsblk
[03:36] <b-yeezi> you can'tnfind the linux partition or the windows one?
[03:37] <Pikia> Ah huh. I found it! I think... And I think I worded my question incorrectly.
[03:37] <Pikia> I shurnk the HDD in Windows, but never allocated it in Windows.
[03:37] <Pikia> I was wondering if that would affect wheater or not
[03:37] <Pikia> Linux would "see" it.
[03:38] <Bashing-om> Pikia: Might be real good at this time to show the channel what you are working with ' sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 ' and pass the resulting link back here .
[03:38] <b-yeezi> If you never allocated the space, then you won't see it in lsblk
[03:38] <b-yeezi> gparted should show you unallocated space. or parted on the commandline, like Bashing-om said
[03:38] <Pikia> http://termbin.com/3cx3
[03:39] <Pikia> Hm. I never knew you could use pipe with "links"
[03:41] <Bashing-om> b-yeezi: Ya want to be that bearer of bad news ?
[03:41] <Pikia> ahahaa, where did I screw up on :P
[03:42] <b-yeezi> Everything is in ntfs format. Looks like Linux is gone
[03:43] <Pikia> Should it not be in ntfs?
[03:43] <Bashing-om> Pikia: Well .. that can not be said. What can presently be said is that there is no ext4 ( linux) partition(s) .
[03:43] <b-yeezi> I never dual-boot. I only run windows in a VM, almost never
[03:43] <Pikia> Oh, I hven't installed linix yet. I'm trying to find the partition I want it on
[03:44] <b-yeezi> But for my wife, Windows is installed first, then install Ubuntu
[03:44] <b-yeezi> That way Windows won't wipe out your install
[03:45] <b-yeezi> Oh then no problem
[03:45] <Pikia> I set up a new Partition on the Samsung SSD.
[03:45] <Pikia> I may have found it but I want to be sure.
[03:45] <Pikia> Its listed as Free Space in the installation screen
[03:45] <b-yeezi> GParted should be able to reformat a partition durinf the install
[03:46] <b-yeezi> Or you can reformat from the Live Disk
[03:47] <Pikia> Mhmm Okay.
[03:47] <Pikia> Thank you!
[03:47] <Bashing-om> Pikia: Ya gonna have problems here - think this through . as the drive is msdos .. BUT Windows isa booting UEFI . The 2 are not compatible .
[03:48] <Pikia> I'm sorry I don't follow
[03:48] <Pikia> I understood maybe half of your sentence
[03:49] <b-yeezi> The Partition Table: msdos line
[03:50] <b-yeezi> This is why I don't dual-boot. Anyway, you have to create a new partition table
[03:50] <b-yeezi> right Bashing-om? To gpt?
[03:50] <Pikia> I alredy did that in Windows, but its not showing in the termbin.
[03:50] <b-yeezi> ok
[03:51] <Pikia> However, it does show on the installtion page as "Free Space"
[03:51] <Bashing-om> Pikia: 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) .. It is on the legacy (msdos) partitioning .. and efi will not cope with it . if this is your entent, gonna have to learb to jump throght hoops to reset in the formware each time ya want to boot a desired system . Can be a real pain .
[03:53] <ReddyTeddy> Does anyone know if there's a way to play BluRays with menus in Ubuntu ?
[03:53] <ReddyTeddy> I want to see if there are chapter names in the scene selection
[03:53] <ReddyTeddy> Nothing I've tried so far has given me access to the menus, just the bluray itself
[03:53] <b-yeezi> set it to gpt and you should be fine Pikia
[03:54] <Pikia> Bashing-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-yeezi> ReddyTeddy: Did you try VLC? or Xine?
[03:55] <ReddyTeddy> Tried VLC, it can play the BluRay fine, but won't let me see the menu
[03:56] <b-yeezi> I think you can change the view in VLC to show chapters
[03:57] <Bashing-om> Pikia: 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 .
[03:58] <ReddyTeddy> Hm, can't seem to find that
[03:58] <Bashing-om> RFI/EFI*
[03:59] <Bashing-om> !efi | Pikia
[04:00] <b-yeezi> ReddyTeddy: I'm on my raspberry pi right now so I can't confirm. Sorry
[04:01] <ksft> Bashing-om: having trouble booting Ubuntu now
[04:01] <ReddyTeddy> No worries, thanks
[04:03] <ksft> Bashing-om: the screen just goes black
[04:09] <ksft> Can someone else help me?
[04:13] <Bashing-om> ksft: K, boot to console - ctl+alt+F1 at the login screen . show now what is installed for the driver ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia | nc termbin.com 9999 ' .
[04:15] <ksft> that's how I started my IRC client
[04:15] <ksft> I had to boot a few times
[04:15] <ksft> ctrl-alt-F1 didn't work the first couple times
[04:16] <ksft> Bashing-om: https://termbin.com/m822
[04:18] <Bashing-om> ksft: Try again as I get " Your connection is not private " on that link .
[04:18] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/m822
[04:18] <ksft> types the URL wrong
[04:18] <cfhowlett> ksft, same here
[04:19] <ksft> can't copy/paste in this thing
[04:19] <ksft> typed*
[04:21] <Bashing-om> ksft: Where and how did you get " ii  nvidia-370 " ?
[04:21] <ksft> Bashing-om: I have no idea.
[04:22] <ksft> Bashing-om: I ran the commands you gave me.
[04:23] <Kurowa> hello
[04:24] <Bashing-om> ksft: Ya must have our trusted PPA enabled for the source . System likes 370 .. we go with it . Lemme think a bit .
[04:25] <Kurowa> Say, any tips to clean files on / ?
[04:25] <Kurowa> I have low disk space
[04:26] <Bashing-om> ksft: Let's see what X thinks ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999 ' .
[04:28] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/iq65
[04:29] <Bashing-om> ksft: Reading . I will be a while .
[04:29] <ksft> okay
[04:46] <avionii> hello.
[04:47] <avionii> I'm upgrading to a larger hard drive.. What's the best way to move ubuntu to it?
[04:50] <Kurowa> the best way huh...
[04:51] <avionii> easiest way?
[04:52] <Bashing-om> ksft: I see no fault . anything relavent ' /etc/X11/xorg.conf | nc termbin.com 9999 ' ?
[04:53] <Kurowa> clonezilla?
[04:54] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/ca3p
[04:54] <ksft> I don't know if any of that is relevant
[05:02] <Kurowa> hello?
[05:02] <avionii> kurowa
[05:02] <Bashing-om> ksft: All proper there also . next log ' /var/log/gpu-manager.log | nc termbin.com 9999 ' .
[05:03] <gp5st> I’m trying to upgrade a (very) old vm from 10.04 and am getting “WARNING: The following essential packages will be removed.” for lzma. I’m not exactly sure how to go about finishing the upgrade
[05:03] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/qgio
[05:03] <ksft> er, that's wrong
[05:03] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/qgiu
[05:05] <Kurowa> So, I lack disk space. It is safe to move usr folder to another partition?
[05:08] <Bashing-om> ksft: No fault there either ! .. What erorrs do you get starting the GUI from terminal ' sudo service lightdm start ' ?
[05:09] <ksft> Bashing-om: it says it's already running
[05:09] <prashant_123456> hello to all
[05:09] <prashant_123456> i have created bootable pen drive ubuntu 16 and it does not show up in boot menu
[05:11] <Bashing-om> ksft: Hummm .. and you loged in from ctl+alt+F1 console ? .. anyway .. is the GUI running key combo ctl+alt+F7 to switch to the graphical interface .
[05:11] <ksft> I did
[05:11] <ksft> it doesn't look like it
[05:11] <ksft> ctrl-alt-F7 shows a black screen
[05:12] <ksft> Bashing-om: ^
[05:13] <Bashing-om> ksft: Stranger alla the time .. ok .. what results ' sudo service lightdm restart ' ?
[05:15] <ksft> Bashing-om: it makes the screen go black and then ctrl-alt-F1 doesn't work
[05:15] <ksft> I just had to reboot
[05:17] <Bashing-om> ksft: Yeah .. seen the connection here drop . Look, I am at a loss here . we can look at the .xsession-errors file in your home directory .., see if there are any hints there .
[05:18] <ksft> Bashing-om: okay
[05:18] <ksft> Bashing-om: one line
[05:18] <ksft> doesn't look like an error
[05:18] <ksft> "Script for uim started at run_im."
[05:21] <Bashing-om> ksft: I am out of ideas . I do not know where to go from here . A cuda thing ? A compiz thing ? I just do not know where or what else to check . All the log files say it is working .
[05:22] <ksft> Bashing-om: I had trouble with cuda before
[05:22] <ksft> I tried to install it, but I couldn't get it to work.
[05:22] <ksft> I think I ran into a problem like this when I tried to install it.
[05:23] <ksft> Bashing-om: would `sudo apt-get purge libcuda*` be a bad idea?
[05:26] <prashant_123456> bootable ubuntu pen drive wont boot in uefi mode
[05:27] <Bashing-om> ksft: Removing cuda is a bit involved . hang on a bit .. let me ' look ' .
[05:31] <Bashing-om> ksft: Prep for removal . what returns ' ls -al ~/NVIDIA_GPU_Computing_SDK /opt/cuda ' ?
[05:32] <ksft> Bashing-om: neither directory exists
[05:34] <Bashing-om> ksft: Well, that is not expected . next in ~/.bash_profile file do these paths " PATH=$PATH:/opt/cuda/bin and export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/cuda/lib:/opt/cuda/lib64 " exist ?
[05:34] <ksft> ~/.bash_profile does not exist
[05:35] <ksft> Bashing-om: ~
[05:35] <ksft> ^*
[05:36] <Pikia> I managed to get the dual boot working, but it seems as if the intel drivers will not detect my secondary monitor
[05:38] <Bashing-om> ksft: K. run ' sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove nvidia-cuda-toolkit ; rm -r ~/NVIDIA_GPU_Computing_SDK ; sudo rm -r /opt/cuda ' .
[05:38] <ksft> again, neither of those directories exists
[05:38] <Bashing-om> ksft: That was just cheap insurance to make sure they were gone .
[05:39] <ksft> okay, it's running
[05:39] <ksft> Bashing-om: what does --auto-remove do?
[05:40] <Bashing-om> ksft: remove any orphaned files .
[05:40] <ksft> Bashing-om: it finished
[05:40] <ksft> Bashing-om: should I try to restart lightdm again?
[05:41] <ksft> should I reboot first?
[05:42] <Bashing-om> ksft: Well .,. now let's try ' sudo apt install --reinstall nvidia-370 ' . Reboot and let's see what we now have .
[05:43] <freakyy> hi all. is there any voice changer realtime for ubuntu?
[05:44] <Pikia> managed to install Ubuntu. However, there is a huge black bar running across the bottom of the screen. Its as if that part of the screen doesn't exist
[05:44] <freakyy> maybe change resolution?
[05:44] <freakyy> just press windows-key
[05:44] <freakyy> and type in: resolution
[05:44] <Pikia> No, its set to 1080p, which is the correct resoultion, but it's not utilizing the full screen
[05:44] <freakyy> it should come up with screen config
[05:45] <freakyy> what graphics card do u have?
[05:45] <Geom> is there such cli command to force optical's led to blink?
[05:45] <ksft> Bashing-om: reinstalled
[05:45] <Pikia> 7970HD
[05:45] <freakyy> ati card?
[05:45] <freakyy> amd
[05:45] <Pikia> err 280x right now. Yeah AMD.
[05:45] <freakyy> hm, they dropped uspport for the unofficial drivers in ubuntu xenial
[05:45] <freakyy> i dont know did u try rebooting?
[05:46] <Pikia> Yes, multiple times
[05:46] <freakyy> try setting to a different resolution
[05:46] <Pikia> That did it.
[05:46] <Pikia> I switched to a lower res then back and it seemed to fix it
[05:46] <Pikia> Thank you!
[05:47] <freakyy> np ;DF
[05:47] <Pikia> You wouldn't happen to know how to get INtel GPU drivers for ubuntu 16.04 do you? I can't seem to find anyhting about it
[05:47] <Pikia> Or I'm just looking in the wrong place
[05:47] <freakyy> Pikia: umm
[05:47] <freakyy> press windows key
[05:47] <OerHeks> intel is supported standard in the kernel.
[05:48] <freakyy> then search for, drivers
[05:48] <freakyy> all non-free drivers will be listed there
[05:48] <freakyy> in some tab
[05:48] <Pikia> OerHeks: Yeah, thats what I thought. However, ubuntu isn't picking up my second monitor, which is attached to the iGPU :(
[05:48] <freakyy> i could install some properiety drivers
[05:48] <freakyy> Pikia: are u sure ur second card is not disabled, if u use the first one?
[05:49] <freakyy> intel is onboard probably
[05:49] <Pikia> I'm sorry, I don't udnerstand what your are saying.
[05:49] <Pikia> Yes Intel is onbaord
[05:49] <Pikia> its the GPU in the CPU
[05:49] <Bayangan> how to set env variable on desktop file [unity]? i tried to change GTK_THEME, but not working
[05:49] <freakyy> are you sure ur ati card doesnt deactivate the intel card
[05:49] <ksft> Bashing-om: should I restart lightdm or reboot now?
[05:49] <OerHeks> Pikia, if it is a laptop, check the FN key to switch internal/external/both screens.
[05:49] <Pikia> freakyy: Yeah, if I boot into my windows os, all monitors work fine
[05:49] <Pikia> OerHeks: Its a desktop
[05:50] <Bashing-om> ksft: I had in mind to re-boot .
[05:50] <freakyy> Pikia: hmm, is your moniator listed when u go to the desktop settings?
[05:50] <Pikia> Yes
[05:50] <freakyy> i mean screen settings
[05:50] <ksft> Bashing-om: okay
[05:50] <freakyy> but it doesnt work?
[05:50] <ksft> rebooting..
[05:50] <ksft> ...*
[05:50] <Bayangan> theme changed when i type 'env GTK_THEME=Theme apps' in terminal
[05:50] <Pikia> No, its just a black screen, freakyy
[05:50] <hateball> Pikia: Using two different GPUs for the same X session is not possible
[05:50] <freakyy> hmm, i cant help u there. u could try resetting the screen resolution of that second monitor too
[05:51] <Pikia> hateball: what do you mean "same x session"?
[05:51] <OerHeks> hateball, how would one switch between open radeon driver and intel?
[05:51] <sho__> hello?
[05:51] <hateball> Pikia: the... thing that shows you a GUI
[05:51] <freakyy> Pikia: x is the graphics server
[05:51] <freakyy> and to that server a gui connects it hink
[05:51] <Pikia> Ahh
[05:51] <hateball> OerHeks: blacklist radeon driver
[05:51] <freakyy> andf u work with taht gui graphical user interfaace
[05:52] <hateball> It is however possible to spawn a new Xsession using the intel gpu
[05:52] <hateball> but then you have the headache of not being able to move windows and panels and so on
[05:52] <ksft> Bashing-om: well, it still isn't working
[05:52] <Pikia> hateball: I am fine with that. Could you point me in the direction of doing that
[05:53] <Pikia> Does that mean I will lose access to my Radeon GPU's though?
[05:53] <freakyy> Pikia: if its a desktop, doesnt the ati gpu have more than one connectors?
[05:53] <freakyy> because my nviida card even has 4 hdmi connectors
[05:53] <freakyy> :D
[05:53] <Pikia> I'm currentlly using three moniors atm.. :P
[05:53] <freakyy> ort slots
[05:54] <Pikia> The third one is the one thats connected to the intel GPU
[05:54] <Bashing-om> ksft: Well, as said I am out of ideas , I am open to any suggestion . Maybe try the suggested 367 version driver rather than 370 ?
[05:54] <hateball> Pikia: let me see if I can find something comprehensible. gotta go afk for a bit tho
[05:54] <OerHeks> oh, the opendrivers work with 2 monitors max , iirc
[05:54] <Pikia> Its fine. Its late for me too. I'll be one around next week to persue this issue furterh.
[05:54] <Pikia> I'm going on vacation so :p
[05:54] <Pikia> Thanks for all the help guys
[05:55] <Pikia> I really appreciate it
[05:55] <freakyy> np
[05:55] <ksft> Bashing-om: so just `sudo apt-get purge nvidia-370; sudo apt-get install nvidia-367` and then reboot?
[05:55] <Pikia> ngiht mates
[05:56] <freakyy> so does anyone know if theres a realtime voice changer for ubuntu?
[05:56] <freakyy> like so i can use it for discord?
[05:57] <Bashing-om> ksft: Yeah, wont hurt to try .. but be aware we have seen no problems reported for 370 by the system . do not hold your breath for 367 .
[06:00] <sho__> can I request help?
[06:00] <ohjeez> of course
[06:01] <ksft> Bashing-om: trying it...
[06:02] <sho__> So, I dual booted with windows 10. my ubuntu root partition is almost full though. The cleaning doesn't give any meaningful space and the software I installed in my ubuntu is necessary for my work right now, so I cannot uninstall.
[06:03] <ohjeez> boot win 10, shrink partition in disks, then boot linux and expand. you may have to boot gparted or similar usb to resize linux partition.
[06:03] <sho__> I want to extend the size of root partition, but doesn't really have access to flash drive or CD drives.
[06:04] <Bashing-om> sho__: Did you try ; ' sudo apt-get autoremove ' ? to free up space .
[06:04] <ksft> rebooting...
[06:04] <sho__> Bashing-om: yes.
[06:04] <OerHeks> sho__, to resize, you need a live iso.
[06:04] <ohjeez> my suggestion seems complex but I just had your problem today, it's an easy fix if you want to fix it right
[06:04] <Bashing-om> sho__: What does ' df -h ; df -i
[06:05] <sho__> let me restart my pc first.
[06:05] <sho__> I'm still at windows.
[06:05] <Bashing-om> sho__: show for disk space usage ?
[06:05] <ohjeez> ok guys im leaving this channel now... teach me something before I go?
[06:05] <ksft> still not working
[06:05] <ohjeez> tech stuff, amaze me
[06:06] <freakyy> hi all. i have a problem with ubuntu gnome and sound volume. its somehow all so quiet i cant turn the music loud. i mean i could put it over 100% but not without distortion. there must be something wrong. how can i fix it?
[06:06] <ohjeez> pulse audio
[06:06] <ksft> Bashing-om: slight correction: ctrl-alt-F1 freezes whatever's on the screen
[06:06] <ksft> it doesn't make it go black
[06:06] <ksft> not sure if that matters
[06:06] <Bashing-om> ksft: Beats me .. others here with ideas ?
[06:06] <ksft> ctrl-alt-F7*
[06:06] <Vorap> Check alsamixer freakyy
[06:07] <ohjeez> nothing ? no tech in the news? :(
[06:07] <OerHeks> Vorap, his problem is: there is no problem :-D
[06:08] <Vorap> Ah...?
[06:10] <OerHeks> if sound works, not distorted, i see no issue
[06:10] <freakyy> Vorap: no alsamixer doesnt help everythings at max
[06:10] <Vorap> Hmm :/
[06:10] <freakyy> OerHeks: well, i have it on 100% and its still quiet
[06:11] <freakyy> is there any app specific sound volume
[06:11] <freakyy> ahi found it
[06:11] <freakyy> thanks :D
[06:11] <sho1> hello
[06:12] <sho1> so... continuing from before.
[06:13] <Vorap> freakyy: oh awesome!
[06:13] <sho1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23066483/
[06:13] <sho1> so this is my df -h result.
[06:13] <freakyy> the sound output was 100% but the one from my headset wasnt up
[06:14] <Vorap> Ah
[06:14] <freakyy> and the setting is a bit hidden
[06:14] <Vorap> Gotcha
[06:14] <freakyy> i first had to click hw mixer and then specific 7.1 audio :)
[06:15] <sho1> so can I request help?
[06:15] <freakyy> sho1: just ask ur question
[06:16] <sho__> well... so, as I have stated before. I am running low on ubuntu root partition and would like to extend it. Unfortunately making liveCD is not an option right now.
[06:17] <freakyy> sho__: try live usb?
[06:17] <freakyy> u cant resize partition without unmounting
[06:17] <Bashing-om> sho1: " 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?
[06:18] <freakyy> hmm, if u find a program that can resize partitions for windows ... maybe that works
[06:18] <freakyy> check that it supports the fs u use on ur linux partition
[06:19] <sho__> bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23066497/
[06:19] <sho__> to be honest, windows disk management can do that.
[06:20] <Bashing-om> sho__: So much for that thought ,, not a kernel space usage issue .
[06:21] <sho__> yeah... those at stackexchange suggested removing old kernels too.
[06:21] <freakyy> sudo apt autoremove
[06:22] <sho__> I have, and only freed 24.2 MB worth?
[06:22] <freakyy> old ones should be "not needed" anymore and should be autoremoveable
[06:22] <freakyy> i dont nkow
[06:22] <freakyy> if u need more ... do the resizing ;D
[06:23] <sho__> yeah. that is what I intend to do. is there any way to do that, with that restriction I've mentioned?
[06:23] <freakyy> what restriction?
[06:24] <sho__> don't have CD drive and accessible flash drive.
[06:24] <ducasse> sho__: you need to boot a live image to resize the root fs.
[06:24] <mgedmin> sho__: you could shrink the windows partition, create a new ext4 partition in that space, and move some of your data over into it
[06:24] <freakyy> ah yea ... if u boot into windows ... that doesnt work cuz then that partition is mounted and cant be resized
[06:25] <mgedmin> be sure to create a backup any time you're messing with partitions, just in case
[06:25] <freakyy> he cant he cant even make live dvd ;D
[06:25] <mgedmin> alternatively, use tools like Baobab to see why you've got 38 gigs used -- maybe you'll find something you can remove
[06:26] <sho__> mgedmin, not an option right now?
[06:26] <mgedmin> waht is?
[06:26] <sho__> say, can I run that gparted with emulator?
[06:27] <sho__> like VMware?
[06:28] <freakyy> sho__: well u use gparted, resize the windows partition then boot into windows and from there increase the linux partition? i dont know
[06:29] <freakyy> i dont konw if that work sthough
[06:29] <sho__> freakyy... using gparted means that I had to make liveCD/bootable USB.
[06:30] <ksft> so can anyone help me?
[06:30] <ksft> when I try to boot, the screen goes black
[06:30] <freakyy> sho__: no. arent u already on linux?
[06:30] <sho__> yes. I am.
[06:31] <OerHeks> !nomodeset
[06:31] <freakyy> say u have sda1 (linux) sda2 (win) then u stay in linux use gparted to resize sda2 and move the beginning of it more to the end and free space AFTER sda1
[06:31] <OerHeks> ksft, tried that? ^^
[06:31] <sho__> But GParted need the linux partition to be unmounted?
[06:32] <freakyy> then u boot into windows and use that freed empty space and join it with ur linux partition
[06:32] <ksft> OerHeks: I haven't
[06:32] <ksft> OerHeks: slightly difficult to see that forum thread without a GUI
[06:32] <bhavesh> Last time I tried using WINE to play on a MTA server (for GTA SA). They kicked me as they have set up some OS detection system. It detects that I am using Linux (through WINE) and doesn't allow me. Is there any way to bypass it? Like for example, change the variable where OS Name is stored, from Linux to Windows on WINE or somewhere else in a configuration file?
[06:34] <freakyy> sho__: no gparted needs that partition to be unmounted which u wanna shrink
[06:34] <OerHeks> ksft, hold shift @ boot, press 'e' to edit the boot line , GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash "  and add nomodeset >> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset"   and try to boot
[06:34] <freakyy> and that would be the windows partition
[06:34] <sho__> eh...
[06:34] <Blue1> bhavesh: winecfg will allow you to set a default "os type"
[06:34] <Blue1> for the programme
[06:34] <ksft> OerHeks: what does holding shift do?
[06:35] <bhavesh> Blue1: okay, I'll try finding it. Thanks
[06:35] <sho__> the problem is to extend? I already have the space to extend it.
[06:35] <sho__> and empty drive.
[06:35] <sho__> an*
[06:35] <OerHeks> ksft, without shift, you might boot straight into linux
[06:35] <antwood> team need help... have mounted root(/) on /dev/sdc1 and /home on /dev/sdd1. Can any assist me as to how I can swap them ?
[06:35] <ksft> OerHeks: I see grub each time I boot
[06:35] <ksft> I'll try that
[06:35] <freakyy> sho__: oh ... is it external?
[06:36] <sho__> no.
[06:36] <Blue1> bhavesh: try entering winecfg on the command line -- you can set the default os needed for the programme.  I have one programme I use that needs win nt to find the dvd drive -- okay -- so I set it to nt and if found the dvd drive.
[06:36] <freakyy> u cant extend partitions over several hdds
[06:36] <freakyy> so the only thign u could u
[06:36] <freakyy> do
[06:36] <freakyy> ok well
[06:36] <sho__> to swap huh. clone it?
[06:36] <bhavesh> Blue1: okay
[06:37] <freakyy> umm, u dont have a live cd
[06:37] <freakyy> else u could have put a bootable linux on there
[06:37] <freakyy> and resize partitions
[06:37] <freakyy> etc.
[06:37] <sho__> sorry, I try to answer antwood's question.
[06:37] <freakyy> but yeda
[06:37] <Blue1> I have found that wine works pretty well in about 90% of what I want to run -- I wish it had better usb support, but hey it works.
[06:38] <ksft> OerHeks: sorta working now!
[06:38] <OerHeks> :-)
[06:38] <ksft> OerHeks: when I try to login, the screen flashes, and it asks me to log in again
[06:38] <bhavesh> Blue1: cool.
[06:38] <ksft> I've gotten to this point when I've had similar problems in the past, but I have no idea what I did to fix it
[06:38] <Eth3r> ello! not sure if this is the right irc for my thing
[06:39] <sho__> freakyy: right now I just need to extend root partition.
[06:39] <antwood> yea sho__ need to move swap the mounts to allocate right disk space
[06:39] <freakyy> u cant extend over several drives
[06:39] <freakyy> do mount and paste it
[06:39] <dandels> Eth3r, go ahead and ask and we'll tell you :p
[06:41] <Eth3r> im trying to install ubuntu on a home brewd pc and getting the error "{     4.836452} nouveau 0000:03:00.0: gr: failed to load fecs_inst"
[06:41] <hateball> Eth3r: What GPU is this?
[06:42] <freakyy> sho__: well ... u cant increase the partition over other drives u could just mount that drive into some directory and move data into it
[06:42] <hateball> Eth3r: a 9xx or 10xx series ?
[06:42] <ksft> OerHeks: any idea what I can do?
[06:42] <Eth3r> let me get u exact model hateball
[06:42] <sho__> freakyy: in other word, move root and its content?
[06:43] <freakyy> no u cant do that
[06:43] <Eth3r> i7-4930k
[06:43] <freakyy> u could use dd and make an exact copy then resize partitions and only use the new drive
[06:43] <freakyy> but ive never donet aht
[06:44] <ducasse> sho__: is /home on the root partition, is that what takes up so much space?
[06:46] <sho__> I think?
[06:47] <hateball> Eth3r: That would be your CPU
[06:47] <dandels> Eth3r, that's the CPU, not GPU (graphics card).
[06:47] <Eth3r> oh sry its 970 gtx
[06:47] <ducasse> sho__: if it is, you can create a new /home on the other partition, copy your data across, boot into recovery mode, delete the old /home and mount the new.
[06:47] <dandels> did you just assemble it and it's not working, or did it have some other working OS before?
[06:48] <hateball> !pm | Eth3r
[06:49] <Eth3r> noted, so u think its the gpu?
[06:49] <hateball> Eth3r: You're trying to install 16.04? You likely need to boot using nomodeset and then install the proprietary drivers
[06:49] <hateball> !nomodeset | Eth3r
[06:49] <Eth3r> yes
[06:49] <Eth3r> TYVM!
[06:50] <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] <hateball> Eth3r: 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 installed
[06:50] <sho__> Sorry, it is reinstalled.
[06:50] <hateball> Eth3r: 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-370
[06:50] <Eth3r> now im installing it from usb should be ok? didnt finish reading yet
[06:51] <lucas_ai> When 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 initial
[06:51] <lucas_ai> long checks?
[06:51] <ducasse> sho__: 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] <Eth3r> i am loveing linux i can update my driver from cli!? that is sweet!
[06:53] <sho__> yeah. and the other partition is empty, so I think I messed up somewhere in the process of reinstalling.
[06:53] <antwood> not 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 :)
[06:54] <antwood> without losing data though
[06:54] <Tin_man> anyone notice that spotchat.org has been down for a couple of days. I use ubuntu, and linux mint and sometime enjoy going over there, but even the website has been down for a couple of days.
[06:55] <drunken_irishman> BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER BEER
[06:56] <Blue1> Tin_man: I just tried to bring up the webpage (I am in southern arizona) does NOT work here either.
[06:56] <ducasse> sho__: there you have a solution, then. it's a bit of work, but fully doable.
[06:56] <Vorap> Tin_man: i just tried here as well  (Sweden) didn't work here eithrr
[06:57] <Tin_man> well at least it's not just me..
[06:57] <Vorap> Yeah :/
[06:57] <Blue1> nope -- as they say:  "It's dead, Jim!"
[06:57] <Blue1> wow even traceroute fails
[06:58] <Vorap> Really?
[06:59] <Blue1> tnwayno@bart:~$ traceroute spotchat.org
[06:59] <Blue1> spotchat.org: Name or service not known
[06:59] <Blue1> Cannot handle "host" cmdline arg `spotchat.org' on position 1 (argc 1)

[06:59] <Blue1> traceroute to usatoday.com (159.54.238.69), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
[06:59] <hateball> !ot
[06:59] <Bitkid_> hey how can I load drivers thru cli? complet noob in linux sry
[06:59] <hateball> Bitkid_: What drivers do you need to load?
[06:59] <Vorap> Sorry :$
[07:00] <Blue1> ooops sorry
[07:00] <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] <hateball> Bitkid_: Seems weird is not a good description. What is not working as intended?
[07:01] <Bitkid_> graphics seem off, usb not working
[07:01] <hateball> Bitkid_: If there are proprietary drivers your system needs you can run "ubuntu-drivers devices" in a terminal and it will inform you
[07:01] <Bitkid_> ok let me try that
[07:02] <Bitkid_> can i past the output here?
[07:02] <hateball> !paste | Bitkid_
[07:03] <hateball> Bitkid_: What do you mean by "usb not working"? Are the ports not detecting devices?
[07:04] <Bitkid_> ok http://paste.ubuntu.com/23066573/
[07:04] <Bitkid_> ya, so im thinking maby something with the driver
[07:04] <hateball> Bitkid_: to fix your GPU, run this in a terminal: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-370
[07:05] <hateball> and once it is all done, reboot to have it use the new driver
[07:05] <Bitkid_> sweet! ok
[07:05] <hateball> Bitkid_: the intel microcode: sudo apt install intel-microcode
[07:05] <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 think
[07:06] <hateball> Bitkid_: Is the system installed or are you on a live-usb?
[07:06] <Bitkid_> live usb / trial option
[07:07] <hateball> Bitkid_: Right. Then you cant install any drivers
[07:07] <Bitkid_> when i try oem install or install stuck on gr: error
[07:07] <hateball> Bitkid_: try booting with nomodeset first
[07:07] <hateball> !nomodeset | Bitkid_
[07:07] <Bitkid_> do i have to add it to the usb?
[07:07] <Bitkid_> oh sweet ok let me read link
[07:09] <hateball> Bitkid_: 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 you
[07:09] <zetheroo> could someone out there with 16.04 please test if sharing a folder with the Local Network Share dialog works for them?

[07:12] <Flannel> Drunken_Irishman: Please mind the language.  And yes, please don't spam.  Thanks.

[07:13] <Drunken_Irishman> and HOW THE FUCK IS PASTING ONE GODDAMNED LINE, SPAMMING???!!!???!!!
[07:13] <milestone234> Drunken_Irishman, someone named opal was talking some mad shit about you....ask him in #krustykrab
[07:13] <Flannel> Drunken_Irishman: While true, you still should pay attention.
[07:13] <abhinav> hi
[07:13] <Drunken_Irishman> HUH?
[07:13] <Drunken_Irishman> WHO DA FUQ IS OPAL
[07:14] <abhinav> how good is Ubuntu Tablet for ROR web programming?
[07:15] <OerHeks> abhinav, what is ror ?
[07:15] <abhinav> Ruby On Rails.
[07:15] <sho__> so...
[07:16] <abhinav> OerHeks: in genral, is it capable enough for a web app programming?
[07:17] <sho__> say, there is an unused partition as a remain from ubuntu reinstallation. I want to assign it as /home partition (as it is originally intended). how do I do that?
[07:18] <OerHeks> abhinav, sure, any machine will do.
[07:19] <ducasse> sho__: i told you earlier, copy data, boot in recovery mode, delete old home, mount new
[07:19] <abhinav> ok
[07:20] <sho__> ducasse: no need to go to disks, edit partition, and change it to linux home partition?
[07:21] <ducasse> sho__: no, just make sure it has a file system. create one if the installer didn't
[07:24] <sho__> ducasse: do I need to format the partition first, to clean it from any traces of data from previous installation?
[07:25] <boomernang> hi. buying a new computer over the next few days and I will be using Ubuntu! Is there still troubles with UEFI mode on newer motherboard? Ubuntu will be the only operating system
[07:25] <Wulf> boomernang: never had problems with that.
[07:25] <OerHeks> boomernang, no, there is a fine uefi manual
[07:25] <OerHeks> !uefi
[07:25] <ducasse> sho__: if there is anything on it, i would. as long as it's nothing you need, at least.
[07:26] <boomernang> and Samsung SSD's are all good? the evo 850.. dont have to do any commands?
[07:27] <ducasse> boomernang: i have two of those, work fine.
[07:27] <boomernang> beautiful
[07:27] <boomernang> thanks!
[07:27] <sho__> it is almost empty. ok, just format it from disks window?
[07:28] <ducasse> sho__: yes, or command line. whatever you're comfortable with.
[07:32] <Bitkid_> no luck hateball, however I do have an installed linux distro but only cli stuff i can f6 in to root
[07:33] <Bitkid_> what is the sudo command for checking what drivers need to be installed and the one for installing them?
[07:45] <sho__> ducasse: say, I never paid attention to disks, what is the indicator that I have successfully formatted it?
[07:45] <cloner93> hi
[07:45] <cloner93> hello
[07:45] <bekks> sho__: the fact that mkfs returned no error.
[07:45] <bekks> sho__: What are you actually trying to accomplish by "formatting your drive"?
[07:46] <sho__> emptying it for my new /home?
[07:47] <sho__> bekks: right now I use the disks GUI. and I never use it for formatting before.
[07:48] <bekks> sho__: you dont need to format it before, just tell the installer to do so.
[07:48] <sho__> bekks: already done?
[07:48] <sho__> already in progress, tbh.
[07:49] <ducasse> bekks: he needs to move /home to a new fs, / is full.
[07:49] <bekks> ducasse: ah, I see.
[07:52] <BlackDalek> none 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] <ducasse> BlackDalek: 15.10 is eol
[07:52] <BlackDalek> lsusb shows nothing connected to computer
[07:52] <ducasse> sho__: there shouldn't be any, it should finish without errors.
[07:52] <ikonia> BlackDalek: what devices are you plugging in
[07:53] <ikonia> ooh yes, 15.10
[07:53] <sho__> the circle is still spinning. is that means the drive hasn't been completely formatted?
[07:53] <BlackDalek> ikonia, 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.
[07:55] <ducasse> sho__: i never use the disks gui, is there no output?
[07:55] <ikonia> BlackDalek: ducasse is right though, 15.10 is EOL, support has ended, sorry
[07:56] <BlackDalek> ikonia, 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. :/
[07:57] <sho__> mm... can you open your disks GUI and see whether there is a spinning icon beside the hard disk?
[07:57] <ikonia> BlackDalek: yes, its EOL which means end of support too
[07:57] <sho__> if that doesn't inconvenience you...
[07:58] <BlackDalek> ikonia, I guess I'll upgrade it to 16.04 and see if the USB ports magically start working.
[07:58] <OerHeks> BlackDalek, know issues, no solution than using a usb2 port.
[08:07] <ducasse> sho__: no spinning icons here.
[08:10] <sho__> ducasse: ok.
[08:10] <OerHeks> disks give a apinning wheel when buzy,  no notion when the partitioning is done. it just appears on your unity panel.
[08:12] <sho__> there is no way to cancel formatting process in linux, is there?
[08:12] <Wulf> sho__: ctrl-c?
[08:13] <sho__> 0erHeks: but is it automatically mounted?
[08:13] <sho__> Wulf: using GUI, sorry.
[08:13] <OerHeks> sho__, not automaticly mounted, it appears as an icon.
[08:13] <Wulf> sho__: close the GUI?
[08:15] <sho__> not working.
[08:15] <sho__> I try to reformat it again using quick format and it gives me this:
[08:15] <sho__> Error wiping device: Command-line `wipefs -a "/dev/dm-1"' exited with non-zero exit status 1: wipefs: error: /dev/dm-1: probing initialization failed: Device or resource busy  (udisks-error-quark, 0)
[08:16] <sho__> and the circle is still spinning.
[08:16] <bekks> sho__: wipefs will take several hours to complete, and there is one process still running.
[08:16] <sarek> Im trying to mount my drive afp in fstab rather than cifs since afp is faster. I've searched the entire internet and havent found anything even attempting to mount afp in fstab instead of cifs
[08:16] <sho__> haa... I'm still in a cafe too... I can't get anywhere if this goes on.
[08:17] <bekks> !info afpfs-ng-utils
[08:17] <bekks> Hmm :)
[08:18] <sho__> can I "hibernate" my PC and continue it home?
[08:19] <OerHeks> sho__, i won't try to find out.
[08:19] <bekks> I'd rather just terminate that process, since it isnt needed.
[08:21] <sho__> what process should I kill?
[08:21] <bekks> the wipefs process still running.
[08:21] <sho__> pgrep wipefs
[08:22] <sho__> no process of that name.
[08:26] <sho__> err... what is it again the ubuntu channel that does off-topic stuff?
[08:26] <ikonia> #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[08:26] <Vorap> #ubuntu-offtopic sho
[08:26] <Vorap> sho__:
[08:27] <sho__> thanks.
[08:27] <Vorap> :)
[08:30] <sho__> it is rather quiet there? is the channel active?

[08:48] <imperiusR4> hi
[08:49] <sho__> hi.
[08:49] <mgedmin> jair: if you use /etc/network/interfaces for networking (as opposed to NetworkManager or systemd-networkd), yes
[08:49] <skylite> how can I edit the sudoers file so that one specific command would run without the need of "sudo" ?
[08:50] <mgedmin> just the other day I created a xenial VM with ubuntu-vm-builder and it had no network because /etc/network/interfaces said eth0 instead of ens3 :/
[08:51] <bekks> !sudo | skylite
[08:51] <blckshep> do anybody have ideas  why when i connect to VPN thru usb tethering is only ping working , but when then  connect with bluetoth + usb tethering is working ok. I only want to use usb tethering, What am i missing? is it route problem?
[08:52] <bekks> blckshep: Sounds like a DNS issue.
[08:52] <blckshep> yes but i have edit dns
[08:52] <jair> mgedmin: hi... thank you for your info, I am using the /etc/network/interfaces for networking
[08:53] <bekks> blckshep: Sounds like you still have a DNS problem.
[08:53] <jair> mgedmin: can I show you what I have in my file? paste.debian.net for example?
[08:53] <mgedmin> sure
[08:53] <blckshep> i have check route -n  when is only  usb tethering  and again to see when i have both connection to see the diference
[08:54] <jair> mgedmin: because what I am not understanding is that when I type dig by itself I get the 127.0.1.1 as my dns server in use
[08:54] <blckshep> where to look any ideas*
[08:54] <bekks> blckshep: of course the output will be different.
[08:54] <HoolaHoop> I have 2 ubuntu systems dual booting sharing a home partition but with 2 seperate home dirs. One ubuntu ghot damaged how do I reformat only its root partion. Lets assume its root partion is /dev/sda11
[08:54] <bekks> blckshep: What exactly isnt working?
[08:55] <ikonia> HoolaHoop: the installer will format the patitions you choose
[08:55] <HoolaHoop> I am in a live boot session with the livecd of the version for which I want to reformat its root partition only
[08:55] <bekks> HoolaHoop: Dont let us assume, but tell us about the actual root partition :)
[08:55] <ikonia> HoolaHoop: or use the disk tools to format the partition you select
[08:55] <jair> mgedmin: http://paste.debian.net/790209/
[08:55] <HoolaHoop> ikonia: Ok I have ubuntu 14.x and kubuntu 16.04
[08:55] <ikonia> HoolaHoop: exactly what I said to do
[08:55] <keini> how can i chat well in this channel?
[08:55] <ikonia> !guidelines | keini
[08:55] <HoolaHoop> my kubuntu 16.04 root is /dev/sda10
[08:56] <blckshep> when is only  usb tethering  is only ping working ,but when i have bluetooth+ usb tethering connection  is VPN working ok
[08:56] <ikonia> blckshep: only ping ?
[08:56] <mgedmin> jair: 127.0.1.1 as DNS server indicates you're running a caching dnsmasq locally
[08:56] <mgedmin> jair: it's perfectly normal
[08:56] <jair> and my host file looks like this: http://paste.debian.net/790211/
[08:56] <keini> tanks you ikonia
[08:56] <bekks> blckshep: "only ping is working" means nothing. Do you ping an IP or a FQDN?
[08:56] <stilllife> hi, because of two issues i am not able to login on my ubuntu system. 1. something got broken on nvidia config. i just want to restore my old xorg. I cannot access any terminal. i ve tried the "text" kernel param but it does not work. moreover any tty is blank screen i think beacuse of a resolution problem of my hidpi laptop display. i ve tried also booting in recovery mode. i can just get into a read only system. any suggestion on ho
[08:56] <ikonia> blckshep: what is the address of the device you are using and what is the route it's using and what interface is it going out of
[08:56] <HoolaHoop> ikonia: so in manual options in the setup if I pick only a root patrtition and continue with the install partition it will over overwrite the root without touching the other partitions ?
[08:56] <mgedmin> jair: your /etc/network/intetrfaces looks weird; "nameservers" and "search" are not supported options for that file
[08:57] <ikonia> HoolaHoop: it will format whatever you tell it to
[08:57] <jair> mgedmin: hmm but what if I would like it to use a different dns server becaue I am not able to access my machines by the prefix name
[08:57] <jair> I have to always put the fqdn
[08:57] <ikonia> jair: is this ubuntu or debian you are using
[08:58] <jair> mgedmin: what are the supported options dns-search? and dns-nameservers?
[08:58] <jair> debian
[08:58] <ikonia> jair: ok, we don't support debian here
[08:58] <mgedmin> I'm not sure; I rarely use those :/
[08:58] <ikonia> I can see you asking in #debian - so please take this conversation there
[08:58] <mgedmin> jair: you can always replace the /etc/resolv.conf symlink with a file that hardcodes your config
[08:58] <ikonia> err no
[08:58] <jair> ikonia: dude do you know that if it wasn't for debian you will not be using ubuntu
[08:58] <ikonia> jair: so ?
[08:58] <jair> ikonia: please stop bothering
[08:58] <ikonia> jair: please use #debian for debian support
[08:59] <jair> ikonia: if  you will not help\
[08:59] <ikonia> jair: please follow the rules, take the conversation to #debian
[09:00] <ggnoredo> is it possible to watch netflix via firefox on 16.04.1? i can't get it work tried everyting on duckduckgo
[09:00] <jair> mgedmin: if I edit the resolv.conf file it shows that it will be overwritten :(
[09:00] <mgedmin> don't edit the file; remove the symlink and create a new file
[09:00] <blckshep> this is route -n when is usb tethering
[09:00] <blckshep> blckshep@t43s:~$ route -n
[09:00] <blckshep> Kernel IP routing table
[09:00] <blckshep> Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface

[09:00] <mgedmin> assuming debian does the same as ubuntu -- you should really be asking this in #debian
[09:00] <ikonia> ggnoredo: what has duckduckgo got to do with netflix
[09:00] <ikonia> blckshep: use a pastebin to share data
[09:00] <ggnoredo> i meant i searched a lot on the internet
[09:01] <ikonia> ggnoredo: so netflix still has flash depdencies and a html5 pilot
[09:01] <HoolaHoop> ggnoredo: did you try another browser
[09:01] <ikonia> ggnoredo: and silverlight I think
[09:01] <ikonia> ggnoredo: so it really depends what you are using and how
[09:01] <HoolaHoop> it may be some special plugins needed and not the browser itself
[09:01] <ggnoredo> it was working on 14.01. Yes it's silverlight with pipelight plugin
[09:01] <ikonia> ggnoredo: there are documents on the options for netflix on linux in general on the web
[09:01] <ggnoredo> it's working on chrome out of box but i don't use google products
[09:02] <hateball> ggnoredo: it is supposed to work in Firefox 49
[09:02] <hateball> ggnoredo: which is out soon-ish
[09:02] <testingking> you may find the API usage here https://test-case-generator.herokuapp.com/documentation/
[09:03] <ikonia> testingking: please stop pasting that randomly
[09:03] <ggnoredo> hateball: my silverlight plugin is working for other websites
[09:03] <ikonia> testingking: it is nothing to do with ubuntu and no-one is asking for it
[09:03] <ikonia> testingking: you won't be asked again not to do this
[09:03] <kopias> i have a problem with lenovo U550 lcd brighness fn+up on ubuntu-mate - it inputs this character "±" as well as changing brightness

[09:06] <gnyrfta> so I was trying to get the library libsndfile to work, and I managed that.
[09:06] <gnyrfta> but...
[09:07] <gnyrfta> now my computer does not output audio
[09:08] <hateball> ggnoredo: should be out in september-ish, there are probably betas you can use now to test but they are not packaged in ubuntu
[09:08] <gnyrfta> this happened after installing: alsalib 1.1.2, flac1.3.1, libogg1.3.2, libvorbis1.3.5 and sqlite-autoconf
[09:09] <gnyrfta> anybody have any idea how i go about starting to fix this?
[09:09] <hateball> gnyrfta: and did installing that remove any conflicting packages?
[09:09] <hateball> gnyrfta: have a look/paste /var/log/apt/history*
[09:10] <indistylo> How should I parse and filter those IPs from text file which states is unreachable eg. this is the text file looks like https://gist.github.com/arunsingh/cd2f31e4af4bb37875d9545fd95b276d out of which I want to filter unreachable IP & write that output to new file
[09:10] <indistylo> Announcing: crossposting
[09:11] <ikonia> indistylo: what ?
[09:11] <gnyrfta> hateball: hi again! I am not sure if it removed any conflicting packages, will paste that.
[09:13] <gnyrfta> hateball: only this one was installed using apt-get :
[09:13] <gnyrfta> Start-Date: 2016-08-17  15:55:33
[09:13] <gnyrfta> Commandline: apt-get install flac
[09:13] <gnyrfta> Install: flac:amd64 (1.3.0-2ubuntu0.14.04.1)
[09:13] <gnyrfta> End-Date: 2016-08-17  15:55:35
[09:13] <hateball> gnyrfta: And the rest?
[09:14] <hateball> gnyrfta: Did you manually overwrite packaged alsalibs with a compiled/external version?
[09:14] <gnyrfta> downloaded the packages and built from source,
[09:14] <hateball> Yeah, that's...
[09:14] <gnyrfta> hateball: yes, that is probable
[09:16] <gnyrfta> hateball: do you think I could reinstall alsalibs using sudo apt-get and have it overwrite my overwriting?
[09:16] <HoolaHoop> yes you can force reinstall it
[09:16] <hateball> gnyrfta: first I would make uninstall, if that was provided with your source
[09:16] <hateball> gnyrfta: and then reinstall, yes
[09:16] <sarek> Im trying to mount my drive afp in fstab rather than cifs since afp is faster. I've searched the entire internet and havent found anything even attempting to mount afp in fstab instead of cifs
[09:17] <gnyrfta> hateball and hoolahoop: thanks, I'll try that
[09:17] <HoolaHoop> your welcome but hateball suggestion of running "make uninstall" is good would give you a better cleanup
[09:18] <HoolaHoop> then you wont have to force reinstall alsalibs
[09:18] <HoolaHoop> yuou can just install it with apt-get isntall
[09:18] <HoolaHoop> *install
[09:19] <G66K> hello everyone
[09:19] <G66K> can anyone explain why im getting :"the connection was reset"
[09:19] <HoolaHoop> where ?
[09:19] <G66K> browser
[09:20] <G66K> mozilla trying to connect to my localhost apache2
[09:20] <HoolaHoop> what address did you type
[09:20] <HoolaHoop> did you configure apache correctly
[09:21] <HoolaHoop> which ubuntu are you using ?
[09:21] <G66K> kubuntu last version
[09:21] <HoolaHoop> kubuntu 16.04
[09:21] <G66K> yes
[09:22] <HoolaHoop> are you using the default directory as your webroot
[09:22] <HoolaHoop> is apache2 started ?
[09:22] <HoolaHoop> check with "systemctl status apache2"
[09:22] <HoolaHoop> command
[09:22] <G66K> HoolaHoop: yes apache2 is on and other website is working except this one
[09:22] <G66K> ctive: active (running) since Thu 2016-08-18 09:46:33 WEST; 36min ago
[09:22] <HoolaHoop> G66K: then you need to add the site to the apache config and enable the site
[09:23] <keini> can i find the dreamweaver equivalent in ubuntu?
[09:23] <G66K> kenrin: bluefish
[09:24] <sarek> Im trying to mount my drive afp in fstab rather than cifs since afp is faster. I've searched the entire internet and havent found anything even attempting to mount afp in fstab instead of cifs
[09:24] <HoolaHoop> keini: there isnt really exactly a dreamweaver equivalent. Buthtere are lots of other softwares you can use. E.g. pingendo for bootstrap
[09:24] <HoolaHoop> you may be able to get dreamweaver to run on linux via wine but you need to check
[09:24] <G66K> keini: bluefish
[09:25] <pwn> Guys i am trying to install a software through the software center, but it asks me for password for the root account.
[09:25] <keini> ok tanks
[09:25] <ducasse> sarek: there should be a man page (mount.afp), try reading that
[09:25] <pwn> I have sudo access, but i dont know password for root account
[09:25] <HoolaHoop> pwn: give your user password
[09:25] <pwn> HoolaHoop: It doesnt work
[09:25] <G66K> HoolaHoop: that still didnt work
[09:25] <pwn> ugh none of his crappy advice works for anyone
[09:25] <HoolaHoop> G66K: did you run a2ensite ?
[09:26] <pwn> can someone else help us?
[09:26] <HoolaHoop> pwn:  then use apt
[09:26] <sho__> pwn: give it sudo password?
[09:26] <HoolaHoop> and ditch the sofware centre
[09:26] <pwn> sho__: It says: Password for root: __________
[09:26] <pwn> if i give me sudo password, it says authentication failed.
[09:26] <pwn> And i dont see place to change account to my account.
[09:27] <HoolaHoop> pwn: ok then use apt or synaptic
[09:27] <pwn> But yes i can do sudo apt-get install perfectly lfine..
[09:27] <G66K> HoolaHoop: i just did and still same issues
[09:27] <HoolaHoop> pwn: then its a software centre glitch I guess switch over
[09:27] <bekks> pwn: root has no password. And sudo asks for the user password, not the root password.
[09:27] <bekks> pwn: So which command are you running there?
[09:27] <HoolaHoop> G66K: look at apache logs in /var/log/apache2/error.log
[09:27] <pwn> bekks: different user name that is the root basically and made the setup
[09:28] <pwn> lets call it ROOTCOMPANY
[09:28] <pwn> or whatever
[09:28] <HoolaHoop> bekks: he seems to have a problem with the password prompt in the ubuntu software centre
[09:28] <G66K> HoolaHoop: all other website logs into error.log except that one im trying to make it work
[09:28] <pwn> point is i can't put my sudo password, it wont work
[09:28] <bekks> pwn: So which command are you running there?
[09:28] <gnyrfta> hateball: i did make uninstall, the alsa package to install, would it be alsa-base?
[09:28] <bekks> there is no such thing as a "sudo password".
[09:28] <keini> how can i install it?
[09:29] <keini> pingendo
[09:29] <HoolaHoop> pwn: 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] <G66K> keini: apt-get install bluefish
[09:29] <keini> ok
[09:29] <HoolaHoop> keini: its is closed source just download the archive for your architcture extract and run
[09:30] <HoolaHoop> but it is specifically for bootstrap.
[09:30] <HoolaHoop> For a more general purpose environment as suggested use bluefish
[09:30] <HoolaHoop> G66K: hmm
[09:31] <stilllife> anybody can please check my question?
[09:31] <HoolaHoop> G66K: Just recheck your config
[09:31] <HoolaHoop> I am sure it must be some sort of config issue if the daemon is running and other sites are working except this one
[09:31] <HoolaHoop> maybe a typo in the config ?
[09:39] <keini> what good  dictionnary can you propose me in ubuntu os?
[09:40] <keini> and how to having it
[09:40] <hateball> gnyrfta: I assume so
[09:41] <gnyrfta> hateball: i found the list of alsa packages in my distribution here http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/sound/ so I'm testing installing them : )
[09:41] <hateball> gnyrfta: apt-get install --reinstall alsa-base
[09:42] <hateball> gnyrfta: but it may have dependencies that needs reinstalling also
[09:42] <hateball> gnyrfta: you can check with apt-cache depends alsa-base
[09:42] <hateball> or whatever package
[09:42] <gnyrfta> hateball: ah, ok - I did a normal install, I'll do that instead.

[10:06] <bekks> !ask | pwn
[10:07] <pwn> bekks: you're a bot
[10:07] <sho__> wait... bekks is a bot?
[10:07] <sho__> I'm impressed if that is true.
[10:08] <bekks> Too bad it isnt.
[10:08] <BenSolo|Cell> Is it true Ubuntu is working on its own Kernel so it can break away from Linux completely and become it's own OS completely?
[10:08] <bekks> BenSolo|Cell: No.
[10:09] <popey> BenSolo|Cell: no
[10:09] <popey> BenSolo|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|Cell> So you know this for sure?
[10:10] <BenSolo|Cell> Cause it seems beneficial for canonical.
[10:10] <ikonia> really doesn't
[10:10] <teemo> Better for Canonical to continue to contribute to the Linux kernel, benefiting themselves in that way
[10:11] <teemo> Assuming having its own kernel is inherently somehow better for canonical/ubuntu is completely incorrect and missing the point.
[10:11] <popey> BenSolo|Cell: yes, it's nonsense
[10:11] <BenSolo|Cell> I guess if Redhat never did it,  Ubuntu won't.
[10:11] <BenSolo|Cell> Worked well for Mac OS though..
[10:11] <sho__> slightly off topic, is that true that Qubes is going to do that?
[10:12] <BenSolo|Cell> It came from Unix.
[10:12] <sho__> or too much off topic?
[10:12] <popey> BenSolo|Cell: Google are the ones making a new OS, not us.
[10:12] <ikonia> not sure where this is going
[10:12] <popey> But yes, this is off topic
[10:12] <popey> BenSolo|Cell: do you have a support question we can help with?
[10:12] <teemo> #ubuntu-offtopic is active and appropriate
[10:12] <popey> (I'd continue this topic in #ubuntu-offtopic)
[10:12] <ikonia> please
[10:12] <sho__> popey, I do.
[10:12] <BenSolo|Cell> Google has already made 2 failed OSes where have you need?
[10:12] <BenSolo|Cell> Been
[10:12] <ikonia> ahhh so it's just a bashing session
[10:12] <ikonia> ok
[10:12] <popey> yes
[10:12] <popey> BenSolo|Cell: enough now.
[10:13] <mcphail> BenSolo|Cell: please move this elsewhere
[10:13] <msev-> Popey i cant believe it why cannonical went with an arm tablet vs a x86. Why are u making life hard for urselfs guys
[10:13] <popey> msev-: there are very few intel tablets
[10:14] <popey> msev-: intel pulled out of the market
[10:14] <BenSolo|Cell> Popey nope I'm always here answering questions and helping..  Have been for years I'm fine chan was dead. There is helping the channel there is just complaining to complain.
[10:14] <sho__> I'm fine chan was dead <- meaning?
[10:14] <popey> just because a channel is quiet, doesn't mean it reverts to chatter
[10:14] <popey> it's a support channel
[10:14] <popey> use it properly
[10:14] <sho__> so, here is my question.
[10:14] <BenSolo|Cell> I do.
[10:14] <BenSolo|Cell> Shh
[10:15] <sho__> how do I get current focused windows title and name?
[10:15] <popey> sho__: xwininfo
[10:15] <sho__> uh... wrong question, I think.
[10:16] <sho__> correct me, please. Right now I am using firefox to browse webchat freenode.
[10:16] <sho__> is firefox the focused windows?
[10:16] <sho__> *window.
[10:18] <rp2> I have a support question.
[10:18] <popey> sho__: not sure I understand what you're asking. yes, the window that has focus, is the focused window..
[10:18] <rp2> is there any way I can see how long a given process has been blocking on the current system call it is trying to execute?
[10:19] <akik> sho__: xdotool has "getwindowfocus" which might be what you're looking for
[10:19] <rp2> I have an application in which prcesses issue flock()s, I want to lok when they start and terminate
[10:19] <rp2> but I can't change the application code
[10:20] <rp2> lok->log
[10:20] <sho__> so, the definition of focused window is the current window that I am engaging right now?
[10:20] <sho__> well, the stackexchange also suggested that. =
[10:20] <sho__> this one. http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/38867/is-it-possible-to-retrieve-the-active-window-process-title-in-gnome
[10:21] <akik> sho__: well there's your answer?
[10:21] <brancaleone> Hey guys, i have a strange network problem on a 14.04 install. When booting normally, it just block when activating network devices (and network related services i guess). If i boot on recovery mode and just manually start network and resume boot, everything goes fine
[10:21] <brancaleone> any idea on how find out what is blocking the normal boot ?
[10:22] <bekks> Check your netorking config?
[10:23] <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] <popey> sho__: 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.
[10:24] <sho__> or is there such log?
[10:24] <popey> sho__: it's do-able in a script, sure.

[10:31] <pwn> Ubuntu 14.04 software center is asking the admin password to install a package. I tried using my sudo password but authentication fails. I dont see a button to change user from admin to my sudo user. the package is a  .deb package.
[10:31] <pwn> what can i do?
[10:31] <sho__> now I can remove rescuetime and own my own data *insert evil laugh here*

[10:32] <drumcode303> when starting a shell script from home directory: what could cause this error?  Syntax error: ")" unexpected
[10:34] <sho__> so, bekks, popey, ducasse, and every other that helped me today, thank you very much.

[10:35] <t1mp> pwn: admin password should be the sudo password
[10:36] <ducasse> drumcode303: the message is pretty clear, the shell gets an unexpected ')'.
[10:36] <keini> somebody  can tell me  how to install  aircrack-ng in ubuntu?
[10:36] <pwn> t1mp: it's not.
[10:37] <popey> pwn: it is by default.
[10:37] <pwn> admin installed computer with his own account.. adminstrator or whatever, then added me as new user and as a sudoer.
[10:37] <hateball> keini: sudo apt install aircrack-ng
[10:37] <popey> pwn: open a terminal and type "sudo -l" to see if you have sudo permissions
[10:37] <pwn> popey: look, i can type sudo in the console and use my password to do stuff.. if i try it in the software center when it asks: type password for Adminstrator
[10:37] <pwn> i get failed to authenticate
[10:37] <h-> pwn: open terminal and install with dpkg
[10:37] <pwn> h- whats dpkg? can i install with apt-get?
[10:38] <pwn> i have a .deb file
[10:38] <popey> pwn: does the dialog not have a button to change to another user?
[10:38] <pwn> popey: nope
[10:38] <h-> pwn: it comes with ubuntu... run sudo dpkg -i package.deb
[10:38] <pwn> h-: 1 sec
[10:40] <pwn> h-: it says missing dependenceis.. can i add a flag for it to download and install deps?
[10:40] <popey> pwn: now run "sudo apt install -f" which will add the dependencies
[10:40] <h-> pwn: now run: sudo apt-get install -f (to fix dependencies)
[10:41] <h-> popey: ah you type faster :)
[10:41] <keini> after do it i have this info"0mis a jour,0 nouvellement installé,0 à enlever et 25 non mis à jour" at end!

[11:13] <glitchd> this is trivial, but has anyone ever configured grub to allow booting from usb without having to go into the bios and change the boot order?
[11:16] <FinalX> glitchd: uhm your bios decides which device your hardware is going to try first. you could possibly boot usb from grub on another drive, but still.
[11:17] <FinalX> and also, most newer bioses have an F-key shortcut to bring up a boot menu, like F12 on Dells for example
[11:23] <glitchd> FinalX, yep i know, but i was just wondering

[11:43] <yogg> Hi
[11:44] <root> root
[11:45] <yogg> I have an ubuntu 16.04 with an iscsi drive (marked as _netdev). I have an rsyncd which should write data to the iscsi drive. After an restart the iscsi drive gets mounted automatically, but rsync starts to early and dies.
[11:47] <yogg> How can I start the rsyncd after the iscsi drive is mounted? I already have tried to change the "Required-Start:" line and added "$all"
[11:48] <ducasse> drumcode303: how are you calling it?
[11:49] <drumcode303> with ./filename.sh and the bash test with sudo bash ./filename.sh
[11:51] <mmeth> Is there anything I can do to optimize power consumption? Ubuntu 16 seems to be drawing unreasonable amount of power while idle
[11:51] <mgedmin> try running powertop, see what it says
[11:53] <ducasse> drumcode303: must be something in your environment, it works fine here
[11:53] <mmeth> the battery lasts close to 10 hours on windows with the default power settings
[11:53] <mmeth> about 1 hour on Ubuntu 16
[11:54] <k1l_> mmeth: make sure you have the proper drivers installed
[11:55] <mmeth> should be
[11:56] <drumcode303> ducasse: is there an easy way to do a reinstall from ubuntu or should I use the stick i prepared? and many thanks for the help!
[11:57] <ducasse> drumcode303: do a reinstall from the usb stick, it's the easiest way
[11:57] <drumcode303> ok:)

[12:00] <gnyrfta> hi all,
[12:00] <xro> Hi, i have to transfom RSA priv/bub keys into an pkcs12 file. I cannot figure out how add the intermediate and CA into that pkcs12. what openssl pkcs12 option should i use?
[12:02] <gnyrfta> i do not have audio on my computer, i installed a different alsa version from source for a c++ program
[12:02] <gnyrfta> i followed advice to make uninstall that version
[12:03] <gnyrfta> then reinstalled alsa-base and other alsa libraries
[12:03] <gnyrfta> still no luck
[12:03] <gnyrfta> hateball: got ideas?
[12:03] <hateball> gnyrfta: not really no, did you reinstall alsa-utils also?
[12:04] <gnyrfta> i think so, i'll try again to be sure.
[12:05] <hateball> gnyrfta: sudo apt-get -y --reinstall install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
[12:06] <gnyrfta> thx, i'll try that - that is not exactly the command i was using
[12:08] <baako> hi guys if i ran this command
[12:08] <baako> sudo apt-get install redmine redmine-mysql
[12:08] <baako> how do i undo it?
[12:08] <baako> i want to uninstall redmine
[12:09] <kriptonium> why you need redmine at first?
[12:09] <kriptonium> and why you need to remove redmine now baako
[12:09] <baako> kriptonium, install it wrongly
[12:10] <baako> purge will do the job
[12:16] <sarek> Im trying to mount my drive afp in fstab rather than cifs since afp is faster. I've searched the entire internet and havent found anything even attempting to mount afp in fstab instead of cifs http://askubuntu.com/questions/813607/mount-afp-fstab
[12:17] <Ben64> never heard of afp, cifs is going to be faster than your drive anyway

[12:28] <TomyWork> will ubuntu 16.04 ever upgrade from systemd 229 to 230 (released May 22) or should I look into workarounds for the issues i have with 229?
[12:29] <SwedeMike> TomyWork: typically Ubuntu doesn't release new versions of anything, instead they try to bug fix existing versions. So report them in the bug tool, and then start looking for workarounds would be my suggestion.
[12:30] <Tin_man> TomyWork, i'm just curious what issues are you having? I use 16.04 now, and was just wondering what I should look out for.
[12:31] <TomyWork> Tin_man you cant symlink units to anything but /usr
[12:32] <TomyWork> https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2298
[12:32] <Tin_man> i'll take a look see..
[12:35] <Tin_man> well guess that's why i haven't run across the bug, don't have any symlinks set up.
[12:35] <TomyWork> i'm trying to package something for ubuntu 16.04 and I like to keep everything belonging to the application in one folder under /opt
[12:35] <akik> i thought the path for systemd files is /lib/systemd
[12:36] <Tin_man> in one of those comments said it would be fixed by #2973, guess that didn't happen?
[12:37] <TomyWork> Tin_man 2973 is post-229
[12:37] <Tin_man> ok.
[12:37] <TomyWork> 16.04 is already too old :)
[12:38] <Tin_man> i guess I don't do enough tweaking to get to many problem, just kinda run out of the box stuff.
[12:44] <danang> just asked, anyone use laptop got problems with suspend-wake up issues?

[13:04] <kolomona> hi
[13:04] <wildmanron> I asked for help yesterday on my Ubuntu 14.04 wont wake up from sleep mode after i had to reinstall 14.04 after upgrading to 16.04 so is there any one out there that can try to give me a little help please.
[13:07] <danang_> wildmanron: some said about xhci/usb3 module not properly wakeup
[13:09] <wildmanron> i 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.
[13:11] <xro> Hi, 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 4.6/4.7
[13:11] <BluesKaj> wildmanron, sleep or suspend?
[13:12] <wildmanron> when 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 system
[13:13] <wildmanron> then 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 it
[13:13] <danang_> i upgraded to kernel 4.7 and seem suspend to ram fine, occasionally freeze though
[13:14] <BluesKaj> wildmanron, 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 needed
[13:14] <danang_> freeze when i remove battery on suspend state, freeze on waking up
[13:15] <wahyudin> Selama malam
[13:15] <wahyudin> selamat malam

[13:15] <wildmanron> i am sorry folks i am still kind of stupid to the system stuff i have been running Ubuntu for a while but not much wrong with it till now and i just don't know what else to do
[13:16] <wahyudin> ok
[13:16] <xendon> Hi, how to execute apt-get/apt/aptitude on a ubuntu mini live cd ? only apt-install and apt-setup is available
[13:17] <wildmanron> so is there a comand that i need to put into the terminal to get it to do the wake up thing
[13:18] <danang_> this systemd thing rise some problems indeed
[13:18] <ducasse> xendon: the mini cd is not intended to be used as a live system
[13:19] <xendon> ducasse: its the only one which is available for arm64
[13:19] <ducasse> xendon: you use it to install, that is all it is intended to do
[13:20] <ducasse> xendon: other than that, for arm you better try #ubuntu-arm
[13:20] <xendon> ducasse: is there any other iso available for ARM64 ? we need that for root on a zpool
[13:21] <danang_> xendon: archlinux
[13:21] <danang_> i think
[13:21] <wildmanron> I have to go thanks for the talk i will be back later.

[13:49] <OneM_Industries> Ok, Ubuntu-related question. I use matlab, and it seems to keep a copy of each previous version around when I install a new one. Any suggestions? (I don't see a matlab IRC, and I've looked for an answer to this before..)

[13:53] <jaco_ACER> akik, according to all i found it should work
[13:53] <jaco_ACER> tusharm567, tried to install on a NTFS partition ?
[13:54] <jaco_ACER> tusharm567, because you can not. Needs to be ext2/3/4
[13:54] <Braven> anyone have experience join a unbuntu server to Active Directory(AD) Domain? I am able to join the Domain but when I remove the server from the domain. The admin account no longer works
[13:54] <tusharm567> jaco_ACER: My ubuntu was up and running for the past 3 months. It was on an ext partition afaik and remember.
[13:55] <tusharm567> although I do remember installing knotes the last time it booted up
[13:55] <tusharm567> then my battery died
[13:55] <jaco_ACER> tusharm567, did fsck on the partition ?
[13:56] <karlrove> hello, im using ssh -D socks proxy for my browser, my ubuntu server has a ipv4 and v6 adress, is there any simple way to make the connections passing through the tunnel use ipv4 only? without disabeling ipv6 alltogether since i use it for irc
[13:56] <tusharm567> i didn't. Should I?
[13:56] <Haris> hello all
[13:56] <Haris> what's the modssl pkg for apache2 on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
[13:56] <Haris> libssl is no pkg. doesn't install
[13:56] <jaco_ACER> tusharm567, you should on the boot aswell on any other NIX partition
[13:57] <jaco_ACER> Harris, openssl ?
[13:57] <Haris> openssl is the general pkg for openssl. modssl pkgname is different
[13:57] <tusharm567> jaco_ACER: I am a noob. so I didn't know about this. Running fsck /dev/sda1 now!
[13:57] <ducasse> karlrove: try 'ssh -4'
[13:58] <jaco_ACER> tusharm567, we all been NOOBS sometime
[13:58] <Pici> Haris: I'm pretty sure it just comes with the apache2 package.
[13:58] <tusharm567> jaco_ACER: Deleted inode 6947906 has zero dtime.  Fix<y>?
[13:58] <Haris> nope. I think it has to be separately installed
[13:58] <Pici> Haris: is  a2enmod ssl   failing?
[13:58] <karlrove> ducasse: 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] <Haris> checking
[13:59] <ducasse> karlrove: with -4 it should be forced to use ipv4 only
[13:59] <jaco_ACER> tusharm567, you should do fsck /dev/sda -a i believe
[13:59] <indistylo> Announcing: crossposting
[13:59] <indistylo> I am trying to copy whole content of the file in vim, what is the command ? i tried :%y+ ; it says E850: Invalid Register name

[14:00] <BrandonXFox> afternoon all having issues formatting a usb boot stick, when i try to I receieve this error message: This partition cannot be modified because it contains a partition table; please reinitialize layout of the whole device. (udisks-error-quark, 11)
[14:00] <BrandonXFox> any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
[14:00] <karlrove> ducasse: im afraid to say this here, but the client is putty :9
[14:01] <ducasse> karlrove: then i can't help, look at the putty docs?
[14:01] <karlrove> ill try with a linux client and see if it persists like this, thx
[14:01] <as2000> BrandonXFox: have you tried using Disks?
[14:02] <jaco_ACER> BrandonXFox, unmount USB, and use parted on it
[14:03] <Gnomethrower> Quick sanity check - is this correct cron syntax?
[14:03] <Gnomethrower> * /6  * * * * /root/backup-nb-subscribers.sh
[14:03] <Gnomethrower> for "run this script every 6 hours"
[14:03] <jaco_ACER> BrandonXFox, if that fails, You can always do some hokus spokus with DD and clean the first few sectors which contains the main partition table
[14:04] <SwedeMike> Gnomethrower: it's * */6 etc
[14:04] <Gnomethrower> SwedeMike: * */6 * * * * /root/backup-nb-subscribers.sh ?
[14:04] <jaco_ACER> So i'm off, thanks for the help you all, BYE BYE
[14:04] <as2000> jaco_ACER: I forgot about DD. Shoot need to make the coffee stronger
[14:04] <SwedeMike> Gnomethrower: "* */3 * * *" is every 3 hours. I think you have a * too many in yours.
[14:05] <jaco_ACER> as2000 dd if=/dev/zero of=/sys/brain count=2
[14:05] <as2000> hahaha
[14:05] <jaco_ACER> as2000, :P
[14:05] <Gnomethrower> SwedeMike: yep, looks like it. thanks!
[14:05] <Pici> SwedeMike, Gnomethrower: no. thats every minute every 3 hours.  0 */3 * * * is every 3 hours.
[14:05] <jaco_ACER> bye bye all
[14:05] <SwedeMike> Gnomethrower: ah, Pici is correct.
[14:06] <Gnomethrower> Pici, SwedeMike: thanks to you both :D
[14:06] <Gnomethrower> so, finally, it should look like this
[14:06] <Gnomethrower> 0 */6 * * * /root/backup-nb-subscribers.sh
[14:06] <Gnomethrower> to run once every 6
[14:06] <Gnomethrower> hours
[14:07] <Pici> Gnomethrower: yep, at 0 past the hour.
[14:07] <Gnomethrower> excellent! Thank you! :)

[14:24] <sho__> hello
[14:25] <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?
[14:27] <akik> sho__: your question is a bit weird. if you have the tar file that you unpacked, the directory contents are in the tar file
[14:28] <maxb> Am I missing something, or has the graphical configuration applet for keyboard layouts disappeared in Xenial?
[14:28] <sho__> yep.
[14:29] <sho__> akik... uninstalling from tar file that has been made that I am confused about.
[14:29] <akik> sho__: usually a tar file is just a copy of a directory structure
[14:30] <akik> sho__: i'm unsure what you mean by uninstalling from tar file
[14:30] <sho__> mm... Just assume I am  just a beginner at ubuntu.
[14:32] <akik> sho__: so what do you mean? :)
[14:32] <ducasse> sho__: you want to do a 'make uninstall'? does the software in question even support that?
[14:33] <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.
[14:34] <ducasse> sho__: yes, but what is it you want to do _now_?
[14:35] <sho__> ducasse: remove it from my PC.
[14:35] <sypher> it would seem that sho__ wants to do the equivalent of a "make uninstall," interpreting from previous statements.
[14:35] <DArqueBishop> sho__: try running "make uninstall" from the source/build directory.
[14:37] <sho__> done.
[14:38] <sho__> now I just need to remove all of the file and folders?
[14:38] <sypher> sho__: That should have already done so.
[14:38] <sho__> huh?
[14:39] <sho__> it is still there?
[14:40] <sypher> sho__: You're being very vague with your questions. Please be specific.
[14:40] <AntonM> Is what still there?
[14:40] <ducasse> sho__: the source directory you will need to remove manually, but any installed files should now be gone.
[14:40] <sho__> ok.
[14:43] <sho__> wait. So, as long as the program exists, its existence depends on the existence of the uncompressed tar folder?
[14:46] <ducasse> sho__: no, everything it needs is installed other places in the file system
[14:47] <main_> hello

[15:17] <Pici> Deruyter: #ubuntu-on-windows would be a better place to ask (but be patient, they're not as busy as here)

[15:54] <ubuntu456> how do i make a bootable isoi have ubuntu  instslled as my main os
[15:55] <freakyy> hi all. is there  a way i can mount an sftp drive into the file manager?
[15:56] <ioria> freakyy, nautilus -> connect to server
[15:58] <rp2> xissburg, it sets an environment variable to hold the name of a socket to talk to your agent. without it the shell doesn't know how to talk to the agent. the environment variable exists in your current shell process only, it is lost when you exit the shell
[16:00] <freakyy> ioria: thanks :D
[16:00] <freakyy> can i also somehow name it
[16:00] <freakyy> because i have sftp://mydomain.tld but severla different accounts
[16:00] <freakyy> and it displays just as mydomain.tld
[16:00] <rp2> LIKA: all-lowercase text is a Unix tradition. just in case you didn't know
[16:01] <freakyy> ioria
[16:03] <ioria> freakyy,  sftp://username@server_ip
[16:04] <tomsmith> hey
[16:05] <main_> who can help me i have in usb3 but when i copy with dd it makes only 7mb/s
[16:11] <ksft> When I try to log in, the screen goes black, and then it goes back to the login thing.
[16:11] <freakyy> ioria: thank you very much :)
[16:11] <ioria> freakyy,  no prob
[16:12] <ioria> !details | ksft
[16:13] <ksft> ioria: I'm not sure what more details you need.
[16:13] <ksft> I'm on Ubuntu 14.04
[16:13] <ksft> I have an nvidia dedicated graphics card and an integrated one.
[16:14] <raspy> is there anyone that can help me explain my disk layout, we're moving to a smaller /jenkins volume and I'm noticing alot of /jenkins in lsblk , heres the output of lsblk  http://pastebin.com/Wgu0Uh6M
[16:14] <ioria> ksft, uname -r
[16:14] <ksft> I've had problems like this before. It started happening this time when I tried to fix my graphics drivers to get a game to run on the dedicated one again.
[16:14] <ksft> ioria: 4.2.0-38-generic
[16:15] <ksft> I'm worried that if I fix this and then switch to 16.04, I'll have these problems again.
[16:15] <ksft> Is it easy to upgrade without a GUI?
[16:16] <ioria> ksft, i'am afraid you'll need to upgrade kernel and xorg anyway
[16:16] <Compu> hey i just upgraded my ubuntu 14.04 to the newest hardware enablement stack, is anyone else having issues with the new hardware enablement stack on intel graphics? im getting reduced performance in games and after playing games putty wont launch until i reboot
[16:16] <ksft> ioria: okay, how do I do that?
[16:16] <Diranged> Hey .. I'm launching new Ubuntu 14.04.05 images in Amazon and I'm finding they come up with the 3.13 kernel rather than the 4.4 kernel. I thought thatb ased on the release notes, that the 4.4 kernel was the default now. Am I using the wrong AMI images?
[16:17] <ioria> ksft, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack   ... but not necessarily related to your issue
[16:17] <ioria> ksft,  sudo lshw -c Video
[16:17] <Compu> can anyone help me out here?
[16:18] <ksft> ioria: http://termbin.com/apdo
[16:19] <raspy> can anyone help me understand my lsblk output? http://pastebin.com/Wgu0Uh6M
[16:19] <ioria> ksft,  and regarding the upgrade, this part in particular : udo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-core-lts-xenial... etc etc .
[16:19] <ioria> ksft,  looks like the prob is with intel ...
[16:21] <ioria> ksft,  how did you install the nvidia drivers ?
[16:23] <raspy> why would a mountpoint like /jenkins be mapped to multiple block devices?
[16:23] <ksft> ioria: apt-get, I think
[16:24] <ioria> ksft,  from the repo ? ppa ?
[16:24] <ksft> ioria: `ubuntu-drivers autoinstall`?
[16:24] <ksft> ioria: I ran a list of commands someone here gave me yesterday
[16:25] <ioria> ksft,  can you paste ubuntu-drivers list
[16:25] <ducasse> raspy: looks like lvm across several devices
[16:26] <ksft> ioria: http://termbin.com/uhar
[16:26] <raspy> ducasse: is that normal? looks like to me a misconfiguration but im not entirely sure
[16:27] <ioria> ksft,  you added A ppa , i think
[16:27] <raspy> because some block devices are different sizes like 1T,2T,5T,10T
[16:27] <Compu> is there a way to go back to my previous hardware enablement stack?
[16:28] <ioria> ksft,  there is no nvidia-370 or 367 in the repos
[16:28] <ksft> huh
[16:28] <Compu> i think i had the one from 15.10 but only the xorg stuff, my kernel was still from xenial
[16:28] <Compu> is there a way to put the xorg stuff back to the 15.10 stack?
[16:28] <Compu> cuz i have no idea what else to do
[16:28] <ioria> ksft,  can you paste /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[16:29] <ducasse> raspy: normal enough, lvm has built-in raid capability. haven't used it much myself.
[16:29] <ksft> ioria: http://termbin.com/eboe
[16:30] <ioria> ksft,  you're using nomodeset ....
[16:30] <ioria> ksft,  you set it now ...or what ?
[16:30] <ksft> ioria: without it, I can't try to log in at all
[16:30] <ksft> ioria: the screen is black
[16:31] <ksft> ioria: I asked about that problem here, and someone suggested nomodeset
[16:31] <ioria> ksft,  sure... without it... what happens ?
[16:31] <ksft> ioria: the screen goes black on boot
[16:31] <Haris> hello all

[16:32] <Haris> Does one need to restart Network Manager ?

[16:34] <ksft> ioria: yes
[16:34] <Haris> guys is there a way to manage network manager through cli/shell ?
[16:34] <pesari> Haris: nmcli
[16:34] <Compu> i guess ping me when someone can help me

[17:24] <ioria> ksft,  sudo nvidia-xconfig
[17:24] <ksft> ioria: I used ctrl-alt-F1
[17:25] <ksft> ioria: does that do something, or do you want the output of it?
[17:25] <ioria> ksft,  it should create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:25] <ksft> ioria: it did

[17:28] <blackdev1l> what's the difference between apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade?
[17:29] <ioria> ksft,  ok, rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf and sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
[17:29] <ioria> ksft,  oh, wait
[17:29] <ctjctj> blackdev1l, Sometimes packages are "held back" dist-upgrade upgrades even those and there are a few other reasons.  In general I use apt-get update; apt-get upgrade.  If there is somethings that I want upgraded that were held back then I do "apt-get install held_back_packages"
[17:30] <ksft> ioria: waiting

[17:35] <ksft> ioria: I'm on 14.04 right now
[17:35] <ksft> is that what you're asking?
[17:35] <ioria> ksft,  ok, but if you run the commands, ... update, upgrade dist-upgrade, what you get ?
[17:35] <ksft> ioria: are those two commands?
[17:36] <ksft> `update` and `upgrade dist-upgrade`?
[17:36] <ioria> ksft,  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

[17:42] <xcyclist> How do I make my terminal dark, so I am not distracted by the video I am running behind it?
[17:42] <YankDownUnder> xcyclist: You should be able to set the colours in preferences/profiles - depending on which terminal you're using, mind you.
[17:43] <xcyclist> Just the default terminal.  Not xterm.
[17:43] <pavlos> Snackerr, re the log question you need to change to log10 and use the calculator.
[17:44] <YankDownUnder> xcyclist: "Default terminal" actually depends on the "Desktop" that you're using...Unity, KDE/Plasma, XFce, LxDE, Gnome, Mate - all have different default terminals.
[17:44] <pavlos> Snackerr, if I remember my math, log2(x)=log10(x)/log10(2)
[17:44] <xcyclist> Default desktop.  Probably Unity.
[17:44] <ubuntu-mate> hh
[17:44] <ubuntu-mate> hello!
[17:44] <YankDownUnder> xcyclist: Either which, you should be able to go into "Preferences" -> profiles -> change as you desire
[17:44] <xcyclist> Yes, I don't see it there...checking..
[17:45] <xcyclist> Got it.  Thanks.
[17:45] <YankDownUnder> xcyclist: Get creative! (it's a terminal - how creative can one get?) :)
[17:46] <xcyclist> No.  I am busy already.  I don't need to shop for baubles.  Thanks for your intent, though.

[17:55] <Haris> guys, apache2 (2.4.7) on my box just stopped loading /etc/apache2/envvars file when it loads config a few hours ago. before that, it was working fine for many months
[17:55] <Haris> how do I get apache to load this file with config ?
[17:55] <lol768> bekks I did?
[17:55] <bekks> ksft: And you did check the obvious things like the xorg.log etc.?
[17:56] <Rarrikins> Haris: Restore from backup.
[17:56] <ksft> bekks: I don't knwo what I'm looking for in it
[17:56] <ducasse> TBotNik: 'find' works with whatever you point it at
[17:56] <Haris> Rarrikins: ?
[17:56] <bekks> lol768: Havent seen that much PPA on one system yet.
[17:56] <bekks> ksft: Error, anomalies, etc.
[17:56] <Haris> Rarrikins: there's nothing wrong with the file. I guess its just not being included
[17:56] <lol768> haha
[17:56] <bekks> ksft: Or just pastebin it?
[17:56] <Pici> TBotNik: fine, then find / -path "*/Scripts/*.sh" -exec ...
[17:56] <lol768> I should clean them up one day
[17:57] <jordila> say... in a group of (5) PCs have Xubuntu 16 as base distro... and i'll would like to add on top of, the same set of extra packages/apps.. any hints on how to do this more efficiently than 'on by one' PC (individually) ?
[17:57] <Haris> what can I do to make apache2 load this file ?
[17:57] <lol768> jordila: it's simple, but .. shell script?
[17:57] <Haris> Rarrikins: I don't know what 'restore from backup' means. I don't think I have backups for this thing
[17:57] <MonkeyDust> !clone | jordila
[17:57] <bekks> jordila: Create on master image, backup the box, restore the image on the other boxes?
[17:58] <jordila> ah... lol768, i like simple solutions
[17:58] <ksft> bekks: where is it?
[17:58] <lol768> ooh, apt-clone sounds cool though
[17:58] <Haris> do I need to re-install apache2 on this box ? this is 14.4 LTS
[17:58] <bekks> ksft: where did you look yet?
[17:58] <jordila> ah... bekks, this adds the value of backup/snaphot kind of ?
[17:58] <Haris> do I need to reboot this box ?
[17:58] <jchampion> Haris: executing apache2 doesn't load envvars. apachectl does. You can source the envvars file yourself before executing apache2 if you want.
[17:58] <ksft> bekks: for xorg.log?
[17:58] <bekks> ksft: Yes.
[17:59] <ksft> well, it isn't in ~
[17:59] <Haris> jchampion: I want the box to be back to as it was implemented by ubuntu makers. is that possible ?
[17:59] <bekks> ksft: So look in /var/log/
[17:59] <Haris> how does ubuntu do it ?
[17:59] <jordila> ubotty, i'll have a look at your suggested "apt-clone" ...
[17:59] <ksft> bekks: there's Xorg.0.log
[17:59] <bekks> ksft: So look at it.
[18:00] <ksft> bekks: Xorg.1.log, Xorg.8.log Xorg.failsafe.log
[18:00] <ksft> ,*
[18:00] <jchampion> Haris: restore from backups, or purge the installation entirely. hopefully someone here can explain apt purging better than I can.
[18:00] <TBotNik> ducasse: So I have to address the drives individually, when instead I want to address the entire computer with all drives at once?
[18:00] <jchampion> Haris: but that's a fairly drastic option, mind you
[18:00] <jordila> bekks ... how do you create a master image ? ^^ any hint will be more than welcomed
[18:01] <bekks> !clone | jordila
[18:02] <ducasse> TBotNik: if you want to search all drives, point find at the root. locate will only return indexed files.
[18:02] <ksft> bekks: which of those should I pastebin?
[18:02] <bekks> ksft: The latest one.
[18:03] <ksft> bekks: http://termbin.com/fgy3
[18:04] <TBotNik> ducasse: Just need my search to return all .sh scripts with "grep" in particular "grep -vE"
[18:04] <ctjctj> !pastebinit
[18:04] <jordila> !automate
[18:05] <bekks> ksft: Which nvidia do you have?
[18:05] <ksft> bekks: GTX 960M
[18:05] <Haris> saved config. removing and re-installing apache2
[18:06] <ducasse> TBotNik: no, you use 'find' to return all files matching *.sh, then grep those.
[18:06] <thor_> silly question maybe. but im confused about the "connect to server" option in nautilus. What is the best way to share a folder over my wifi network with another ubuntu machine? openssh or samba? It seems difficult to find info on the correct way to do this. any suggestions?
[18:06] <bekks> ksft: I suppose you tried to purge (not only remove) all nvidia related packages, and tried nvidia-prime?
[18:07] <TBotNik> ducasse: Having trouble getting that command right.  Will update the pastebin with what I'm actually writing the new script for!
[18:07] <thor_> ksft: life would be so boring if Nvidia on ubuntu worked out of the box :D
[18:07] <Haris> what could cause this problem that I'd need drastic measures ?
[18:08] <Bashing-om> thor_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2159449 <-easiest way to cp files 'tween two Lubuntus that share the same router/house (Morbius1)
[18:08] <pavlos> TBotNik, would locate "*.sh" -q work?
[18:10] <ducasse> TBotNik: 'find / -name "*.sh" | xargs grep "whatever"' should grep all .sh files for 'whatever'
[18:11] <ksft> bekks: I think someone suggested that
[18:11] <helpless> is it possible to install 16.04.1 lts over 14.04.1 lts and keeping dynamic files such as those in /etc, /home and where the mysql database resides?
[18:11] <ksft> bekks: nvidia-prime and another package
[18:11] <bekks> ksft: which other package?
[18:11] <thor_> Bashing-om: thanks for the link :) read It, and discovered Nitroshare. Will give It a go :)
[18:11] <ksft> not sure, checking logs...
[18:12] <ksft> bekks: nvidia-352
[18:12] <Bashing-om> thor_: :) great .. Pleased it helps .
[18:12] <bekks> ksft: can you please pastebin "dpkg -l | grep nvidia"?
[18:13] <ksft> bekks: http://termbin.com/z09z
[18:14] <lol768> bekks: So I executed sudo apt-get update 2>&1 | grep NO_PUBKEY | while read line ; do sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys $(echo "$line" | rev | cut -b -16 | rev) ; done
[18:14] <kaido> yo
[18:14] <lol768> and it's still upset
[18:14] <bekks> lol768: So fix each error manually?
[18:14] <Guest57589> are these things safe
[18:15] <lol768> there's nothing wrong with the script
[18:15] <lol768> fixing them manually does nothing different
[18:15] <bekks> lol768: But it didnt fix your issues.
[18:15] <lol768> that doesn't mean my script didn't work
[18:15] <lol768> apt-key doesn't appear to work
[18:15] <lol768> gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg:              unchanged: 1
[18:15] <OerHeks> lol768, depends where the keys must come from, 3rd party ppa does not store the key on our keyserver.
[18:16] <lol768> let's take a look at a simple example then
[18:16] <lol768> http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com trusty-security
[18:16] <bekks> lol768: Just fix each line manually.
[18:16] <lol768> ^ will be in your keyserver, surely?
[18:16] <lol768> bekks: I've tried running apt-key manualluy
[18:17] <lol768> it does exactly the same
[18:17] <bekks> Yu did that for each missing key?
[18:17] <bekks> *You
[18:17] <lol768> I did it for one key
[18:17] <lol768> and then re-ran apt-get update
[18:17] <lol768> and noticed that the line in question was still there
[18:18] <lol768> W: GPG error: http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com trusty-security InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 40976EAF437D05B5 NO_PUBKEY 3B4FE6ACC0B21F32
[18:18] <Haris> can I force an automatic fsck on restart if I touch /autofsck or /.autofsck on 14.4 LTS ? this works on cnetos
[18:18] <lol768> ^ is the one I tried to resolve
[18:18] <Haris> centos_
[18:18] <Haris> centos+
[18:18] <Haris> how can I force automatic fsck on reboot ?
[18:18] <Haris> on 14.4 LTS
[18:18] <bekks> Haris: sudo touch /forcefsck
[18:18] <bekks> Haris: And its 14.04 not 14.4 - this is Ubuntu, not some Suse ;)
[18:18] <lol768> sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 40976EAF437D05B5 3B4FE6ACC0B21F32 is the command I executed to try and fix it.
[18:19] <Haris> yep
[18:19] <Haris> the same
[18:19] <lol768> which returned "unchanged: 2"
[18:19] <bekks> lol768: And whats the entire output of that?
[18:19] <lol768> bekks: https://gist.github.com/21a9679def42fef0e0266f7379be0e8d
[18:19] <OerHeks> 40976EAF437D05B5 3B4FE6ACC0B21F32 are 2 keys ..
[18:19] <lol768> the line mentioned two keys OerHeks
[18:19] <lol768> maybe I mispoke earlier :P
[18:20] <lol768> but I think my point is still valid, no?
[18:20] <OerHeks> that is your culprit i guess.. 1 key at the time?
[18:20] <lol768> I will humour you OerHeks, but I doubt it
[18:20] <lol768> https://gist.github.com/47d5cafdbd4d4eda2f2d96920e119171 https://gist.github.com/7bad22adb1101977d8d579e95e559e1e
[18:21] <lol768> and it still warns me in apt-get update.
[18:21] <ksft> bekks: should I replace those packages with just nvidia-prime?
[18:22] <bekks> lol768: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1263540
[18:22] <bekks> ksft: I guess you need to activate your nvidia card too.
[18:23] <bekks> ksft: Is that a laptop?
[18:23] <ksft> bekks: yes
[18:23] <bekks> ksft: Can you choose the GPU in the BIOS?
[18:23] <ksft> I don't know how to get to the BIOS settings
[18:23] <bekks> ksft: thats describedin the manual of your laptop, I guess.
[18:24] <ksft> bekks: I think I selected the dedicated graphics card in the BIOS a while ago
[18:24] <ksft> I don't think that's the problem
[18:24] <bekks> ksft: do you think or do you know? :)
[18:24] <ksft> bekks: think
[18:26] <ksft> looks like it's F2 to get to the BIOS settings
[18:26] <ksft> rebooting...

[18:29] <Haris> is there a way I can force the issue ?
[18:30] <ksft> bekks: I don't see a way to change which graphics card is used
[18:30] <Haris> I need to remove and re-install apache2 sooner than later. its getting midnight. I have to recover this situation, get off of work and call it a day
[18:30] <Danili> Hello in here :) I'm kinda newb at linux and I admit that, but I have run in to a problem that my / is used 100% on my rented server. I have root access but I don't know what to do about this problem, because i only know whats in my home folder. How do i find out what i can remove from / without making any problems with the system? https://paste.ubuntu.com/23068124/
[18:30] <lol768> bekks: thanks for that bug link, it was really helpful

[18:31] <lol768> I sudo rm /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/* -rf'd and then readded them all with my script
[18:31] <lol768> and it's now happy again :_
[18:31] <lol768> :)
[18:31] <mohsen_> hey can anyone help me?
[18:31] <lol768> thanks OerHeks for your suggestions too
[18:32] <Bashing-om> ksft: bekks A thought, as you have the 352 driver installed . remove the boot parameter 'nomodeset' as that defeats Kernel Mode Setting ?? Reboot and see what results ?
[18:32] <OerHeks> lol768, glad you fixed it
[18:32] <MonkeyDust> Danili  start with    sudo apt autoremove && sudo apt clean
[18:32] <Haris> I'v rebooted this box. I think fsck has also been run. I'm not sure what it causing this error. need help to recover from this situation
[18:32] <ksft> Bashing-om: I've only been remembering to add nomodeset some of the times I boot.
[18:32] <ksft> When I add it, I get a login loop.
[18:32] <Haris> please help
[18:32] <ksft> When I don't, I get a black screen.
[18:34] <Danili> MonkeyDust, https://paste.ubuntu.com/23068134/

[18:35] <ksft> Bashing-om: .ICEauthority is -rw-------
[18:35] <bekks> ksft: so whom does this file belong to?
[18:35] <bekks> ksft: thats what you need to check, not its permissions.
[18:35] <Danili> MonkeyDust, https://paste.ubuntu.com/23068137/
[18:35] <ksft> bekks: oh, me
[18:35] <ksft> I'm the only user
[18:36] <MonkeyDust> Danili  ok,    sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean
[18:37] <Danili> MonkeyDust, same result as https://paste.ubuntu.com/23068134/
[18:37] <mohsen_> who knows how to hack?
[18:37] <bekks> mohsen_: No one on this network.
[18:37] <ducasse> Haris: first, do
[18:38] <ducasse> Haris: first, do 'install --reinstall' of all three, then 'purge'
[18:38] <Bray90820> What commands run when software update checks for updates
[18:38] <MonkeyDust> Danili  ok, try   sudo apt-get install aptitude && sudo aptitude purge ~c
[18:38] <Haris> ducasse: all 3 ? 3 what ?
[18:38] <Haris> got it
[18:39] <Danili> MonkeyDust, still same result :(
[18:39] <MonkeyDust> Danili  lsblk -f
[18:39] <ducasse> Haris: one of the packages were incompletely installed, so we reinstall all of them to make sure that's fixed.
[18:39] <ksft> bekks, Bashing-om: any other ideas?
[18:40] <Danili> MonkeyDust, https://paste.ubuntu.com/23068144/
[18:40] <Haris> on trying to re-install I'm getting this ---> http://pastebin.ca/3696930

[18:41] <Danili> MonkeyDust, I dunno it's a rented machine
[18:42] <ksft> Bashing-om: ":0"
[18:42] <Marius-IT> hey guys
[18:42] <ducasse> Haris: you might need to do an update first
[18:42] <Haris> the problem is, install or reinstall process goes to a certain point and then doesn't move ahead from that point
[18:42] <MonkeyDust> Danili  vg = volume group, which means it's LVM ... pastebin    df -h
[18:42] <Marius-IT> any ideea how to install a package from 16.10 to 16.04?
[18:42] <Marius-IT> using apt
[18:42] <bekks> Marius-IT: you dont.
[18:42] <ksft> bekks: so should I purge nvidia* and install just nvidia-prime?
[18:42] <bekks> Marius-IT: why are you trying to break your box?
[18:43] <Wulf> Marius-IT: backports, if possible
[18:43] <Haris> don't want to do an update. don't know what further it'll break. need to remain on this version
[18:43] <ksft> bekks: you implied that might help
[18:43] <bekks> ksft: you already have that installed.
[18:43] <Bray90820> Is there a terminal command to check if the computer n needs to be restarted after installing updates?
[18:43] <ksft> bekks: should I get rid of the other nvidia packages?
[18:43] <bekks> ksft: No.
[18:43] <Haris> need to repaire current damage, rather than prolonging my grief by upgrading to a new version. that way I may end up finding myself in more of a mess than I'm currently in
[18:43] <Danili> MonkeyDust, https://paste.ubuntu.com/23068149/
[18:43] <ksft> okay...what should I do?
[18:43] <bekks> Bray90820: needrestart
[18:44] <ducasse> Haris: i mean update the package cache, so it can find the package. 'apt update'
[18:44] <Haris> this is happening ----> http://pastebin.ca/3696935
[18:44] <Marius-IT> @bekks, current package in 16.04 is aplha -> and the only stable version is on 16.10
[18:44] <heedly> How do I type in a hex unicode point?
[18:44] <bekks> Marius-IT: And installing packages from different releases break your box.
[18:44] <ducasse> Haris: ok, now try to remove them
[18:44] <Marius-IT> @bekks, ok, ty
[18:45] <Haris> install and reinstall process don't move past the points in the paste
[18:45] <propetis> Hey
[18:45] <MonkeyDust> Danili  again, but don't show the same pastebin ... sudo apt-get autoremove
[18:45] <bekks> ksft: I'm sorry, I dont know. Maybe you could try postingon the forums?
[18:45] <ksft> bekks: that's slightly difficult with no GUI
[18:45] <Haris> isn't there a force switch that can forcefully remove or reinstall apache
[18:45] <Haris> I'm not sure how messed up apache install is

[18:48] <ducasse> Haris: your dpkg database might have become corrupted, that should absolutely remove it.
[18:48] <ksft> bekks: yeah, okay, doing that now
[18:49] <ksft> now it's working even without nomodeset, I think
[18:49] <ksft> except that now I can't run programs with the nvidia graphics card, which was the original problem
[18:49] <ksft> can anyone help me with that?
[18:50] <Bashing-om> ksft: Nother thought, as the driver has been changed so many times - does the hardware agree with what the system thinks is loaded ? compare : - lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' ; cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log - for the hardware "in-use" .
[18:50] <atralhea-> if I change partition table of my HHD, will I lose my data?
[18:50] <ducasse> habbasi: try 'dpkg -C apache2'
[18:51] <ksft> Bashing-om: first one says "Kernel driver in use: i915"
[18:51] <ksft> Bashing-om: /var/log/Xorg.0.log does not contain the text "in use"
[18:52] <YankDownUnder> atralhea-: Changing the partition table changes the entire drive - so yes, your data will be lost. Back up before you do anything like that.
[18:52] <ksft> Bashing-om: or "in-use"
[18:54] <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 work
[18:54] <Bashing-om> ksft: 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?
[18:55] <ducasse> atralhea-: parted can tell you partition table type. they can be converted, but there is a risk in doing so.
[18:55] <YankDownUnder> atralhea-: Use gparted (it's on the liveUSB/CD/DVD => you'll be able to see what's what using that utility
[18:56] <ksft> Bashing-om: I don't see "ServerLayout" anywhere in that file eitehr
[18:56] <ksft> either*
[18:57] <Bashing-om> ksft: Post the file .. lemme have a read then .
[18:57] <ksft> okay
[18:57] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/18kp
[18:59] <xcyclist> I thought Lilo was long ago retired by grub, but I see it's still around.  I don't know much about bootloaders.  Why does Ubuntu use grub instead?
[19:00] <atralhea-> can I somehow switch to MBR and also have multiboot option with windows?
[19:00] <Bashing-om> ksft: Sorry, to be clear, this cat /etc/X11/Xorg.conf is the control file here in question ., post that one .
[19:01] <ksft> ohh
[19:01] <YankDownUnder> xcyclist: 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] <ksft> Bashing-om: doesn't exist
[19:01] <xcyclist> Thank you.
[19:02] <xcyclist> Is there any performance advantage to Lilo?
[19:02] <ducasse> atralhea-: mbr or gpt doesn't really affect multiboot, except that gpt can have more partitions.
[19:02] <YankDownUnder> xcyclist: Mmmmm...no. :)
[19:03] <xcyclist> I wonder what docker uses?
[19:04] <Bashing-om> ksft: 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] <ksft> Bashing-om: I don't have nvidia-prime installed now
[19:04] <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!
[19:05] <ksft> Bashing-om: or nvidia-xconfig
[19:05] <YankDownUnder> xcyclist: There are a few different options for booting in Docker...Boot2docker is one...obviously grub is used...
[19:05] <Guest1330> hello
[19:06] <Bashing-om> ksft: ^^ in that case then, you also do not have the Nvidia driver installed .. back to square one .
[19:06] <ducasse> atralhea-: there is a risk, but normally it works fine. you should back up first, though.
[19:06] <ksft> Bashing-om: right, because I uninstalled it
[19:06] <ksft> Bashing-om: that's the only way I've found to log in normally
[19:07] <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] <ducasse> atralhea-: i don't understand what you mean.
[19:08] <atralhea-> ducasse: which part?
[19:09] <Bashing-om> ksft: 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] <ksft> sure
[19:09] <ducasse> atralhea-: 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.
[19:10] <ksft> Bashing-om: how?
[19:10] <ducasse> atralhea-: the big deal is really whether you want to boot in legacy or uefi mode. some machines can only run uefi on gpt.
[19:11] <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.
[19:12] <ducasse> atralhea-: 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] <ducasse> atralhea-: yes.
[19:13] <atralhea-> ducasse: thank you :)
[19:13] <ducasse> atralhea-: np.
[19:16] <Bray90820> Would this be a good way to check and restart if a restart is required after installing updates?
[19:16] <Bray90820> if [ -f /var/run/reboot-required ]; then reboot;
[19:17] <Bashing-om> ksft: Let's try this ' sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-* ; sudo apt install linux-headers-`uname -r` ; sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau ; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ' Reboot and now what do you see for the GUI ?
[19:18] <paracusia> hello, I have an MD-RAID-5 with 4 drives. Everytime I want to access it and the drives have spun down, they get active one after the other, resulting in about 30second delay. Is there any way to tell the kernel that he spins up all together?
[19:20] <ksft> Bashing-om: the first two commands did nothing
[19:20] <noobuntu> does anyone use redshift here to lower color temperature? how do I adjust the color temperature to a certain value in redshift?
[19:20] <ksft> Bashing-om: the third one says it can't be installed because of something about dependencies
[19:20] <ksft> ubuntu-desktop is already installed
[19:21] <alkisg> After ejecting a usb disk from nautilus (or using udisksctl power-off), how can I re-connect it without physically unplug/replugging it?
[19:23] <dieter_> hallo
[19:26] <eelstrebor> i have a problem with a dell xps15 touchpad after upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04 - the right click no longer works on the touchpad but works fine with an external mouse - i tried the suggestion @ https://askubuntu.com/questions/579645/right-click-on-synaptic-touchpad-not-working-on-ubuntu-14-10 but it didn't fix the problem. i haven't found anything else that suggests a fix
[19:27] <Bashing-om> ksft: K; then the 1st order of predidence is to fix the dependencies . pastebin ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' . Let's se what has to be fixed .
[19:29] <ksft> Bashing-om: you want the output of those?
[19:30] <ubuntu-mate> yolo
[19:30] <Bashing-om> ksft: Unless you can fix the depencency issues on your own. then yes I need to see what the nature of the dependency problem is .
[19:30] <ksft> okay
[19:30] <ksft> just a sec
[19:34] <ksft> Bashing-om: apt-get update: http://termbin.com/o5e2
[19:34] <ksft> Bashing-om: apt-get upgrade: http://termbin.com/9jli

[19:38] <paranoidabhi> how can I combine multiple images into a pdf?
[19:38] <Bashing-om> ksft: I see no prblem with the aboves . Show me now ' sudo apt install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau ' .

[19:40] <Grorco> hi I'm trying to run two commands on one line using the start up prefrences and getting errors, I'm getting && not found in /home/me/ does anyone know how to get this to work?
[19:40] <crazyphil> so I'm trying to setup an Ubuntu 16.0 LTS server to use nsupdate to update DNS, however when I add any script to the /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d directory, the system refuses to bring up the network, stating the network interface is down, the same script works perfectly on 14.x LTS, any suggestions?
[19:41] <Bashing-om> ksft: Well, well .. maybe now we are getting somewhere ! .,. try ' sudo apt install xserver-xorg-core xorg-video-abi-15 ' .
[19:43] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/8ef5
[19:43] <alkisg> Grorco: writing two commands and joining them with && means that you want "shell" to execute them. So, try instead something like this: sh -c 'command1 && command2'
[19:43] <alkisg> Grorco: or, create a script, put it in your /home/username/.local/bin (new folder, create it), and then call that script
[19:43] <Bashing-om> crazyphil: Maybe your script does not have the correct name for 16.04's systemd ? : https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/ .
[19:44] <Grorco> alkisg, thanks I didn't feel I needed a script I'm just opening pycharm and moving it to another workspace
[19:45] <Bashing-om> ksft: Been in this rabbit hole before, may take us a bit to get to the bottom ! .. try now ' sudo apt install libcheese7 libcheese-gtk23 ' .
[19:46] <akkonrad> hey, my laptop after upgrade to 16.04.1 could not start - I had this error "Failed to start load kernel modules". So I logged in as root, entered "sudo dpkg --configure -a" command but still failing. now I'm trying to connect to wifi network to run updates again, but can't do that.
[19:46] <akkonrad> is there any way to backup to previous version of kernel from command line?
[19:46] <akkonrad> without internet conneciton?
[19:47] <Bashing-om> akkonrad: Try booting to the grub boot menu and boot an older kernel ??
[19:47] <alkisg> akkonrad: ls /boot/vmlinuz*  ==> if you have many files there, you have many kernels, and you can select an older one
[19:47] <alkisg> (from grub like Bashing-om said)
[19:48] <ksft> Bashing-om: already installed
[19:49] <Bashing-om> ksft: Huh ? as we have " libcheese-gtk23 (>= 3.4.0) but it is not going to be installed " your reply " already installed" ' Does not compute . Details please .
[19:50] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/rwk1
[19:51] <crazyphil> Bashing-om:  that was the first thing I checked, it's definitely using the right interface name, and if I run the script manually it works without issue, just don't know why it kills the boot
[19:52] <alkisg> crazyphil: verify that it returns 0, success
[19:52] <Bashing-om> !info linux-headers
[19:52] <k1l_> !info linux-headers-generic
[19:52] <Bashing-om> !info linux-headers-generic
[19:53] <k1l_> but if you install "linux-generic" it will pull in the kernel+ headers
[19:54] <Bashing-om> k1l_: I am concerned that " http://termbin.com/rwk1 " wants to remove this latest header package .. huh ??
[19:54] <k1l_> kernel 4.2? is that a 15.10?
[19:54] <alkisg> Bashing-om: it's 4.2, not the 4.4 found in xenial... which version is ... ^ that
[19:55] <ksft> I'm on 14.04
[19:55] <alkisg> So probably kernel-lts-wily or something
[19:55] <crazyphil> alkisg: how do I verify that?
[19:55] <ksft> not opposed to upgrading to 16.04, though
[19:55] <alkisg> not lts-xenial
[19:55] <k1l_> ksft: "dpkg -l | grep linux-image | nc termbin.com 9999"
[19:56] <alkisg> crazyphil: for starters, run it from the command line, and immediately afterwards, run: echo $?
[19:56] <ksft> k1l_: http://termbin.com/niwt
[19:56] <alkisg> And see if it's zero
[19:56] <k1l_> yeah, i suspect the wily lts stack (which is EOL now). so that needs to be changed to the xenial LTS stack anyway
[19:56] <crazyphil> ok, it's definitely returning 0
[19:56] <crazyphil> however I just noticed I might have had it using the wrong shell
[19:57] <alkisg> crazyphil, it would help if you put it to pastebin
[19:58] <alkisg> ksft: I haven't seen your initial issue, but yes you need to upgrade your kernel to lts-xenial by following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[19:58] <ksft> even though I'm on 14.04?
[19:58] <alkisg> Yes
[19:58] <ksft> okay
[19:58] <alkisg> Read that wiki page, it explains the kernel updating policy
[19:59] <k1l_> ksft: ok, lets try to get the depencies out of the way and bring you to the supported kernel stack: "sudo apt-get remove unity-control-center "  then run "sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-core-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-xenial libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts-xenial "
[19:59] <alkisg> You now have the kernels of vivid and wily, which are old and replaced by xenial
[19:59] <ksft> k1l_: should I be doing that in addition to what alkisg suggested?
[19:59] <k1l_> ksft: and after that: "sudo apt-get install --install-recommends unity-control-center "
[19:59] <k1l_> ksft: that is the same
[19:59] <ksft> oh, okay
[19:59] <crazyphil> alkisg: http://pastebin.com/512ppL4k
[20:00] <alkisg> ksft: follow what k1l_ is suggesting, he combines the wiki page with your actual issue
[20:00] <alkisg> Although k1l_ I think that removing and reinstalling unity-control-center won't also put back its r-depends...
[20:00] <k1l_> the issue with the unity-control center is a known issue if you have one LTS stack and try to change inbetween.
[20:01] <k1l_> afterwards you could get rid of the metapackages for the vivid and wily kernels and stack
[20:01] <ksft> k1l_: http://termbin.com/8c1o
[20:03] <k1l_> ksft: from what command?
[20:03] <ksft> k1l_: the one you just gave me
[20:03] <ksft> iinstalling all those packages
[20:03] <ksft> installing*
[20:03] <ksft> oh
[20:03] <ksft> the second one
[20:03] <crazyphil> here's my boot log after I add the script:  http://pastebin.com/u7Zh3v5V
[20:04] <Bashing-om> ksft: k1l_ : finally at last we are getting to the root of the problems .
[20:05] <k1l_> hmm ok. ksft do you have PPAs in use?
[20:05] <ksft> probably some
[20:05] <ksft> why?
[20:06] <alkisg> crazyphil: these scripts are sourced by dhclient, so when you're setting the error flag, you're setting it for all scripts, so if some other scripts fails later on, boot stops
[20:06] <Bashing-om> k1l_: ^^ There is a debian repo at play here !
[20:06] <alkisg> crazyphil: either don't set flags, or put them back as they were
[20:07] <crazyphil> ok, that makes perfect sense, and I was unaware it'd set the for all
[20:07] <OerHeks> ls -la  /etc/apt/sources.list.d | nc termbin.com 39999
[20:08] <ksft> OerHeks: I assume that's for me
[20:08] <OerHeks> that line shows ppas indeed
[20:08] <ksft> could `graphics-drivers-ppa-trusty` be relevant?
[20:09] <OerHeks> why filter it,...
[20:09] <ksft> you want the whole thing?
[20:09] <OerHeks> If you want serious help, yes.
[20:09] <ksft> http://termbin.com/ygqk
[20:09] <ksft> okay
[20:10] <k1l_> ksft: ok. lets try to downgrade your trusty to the original trusty 3.13 kernel and xorg and if that worked then upgrade to the xenial stack again.
[20:10] <ksft> okay
[20:10] <k1l_> ksft: "sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-video-all xserver-xorg-input-all libwayland-egl1-mesa "
[20:10] <ksft> how?
[20:10] <ksft> oh
[20:12] <ksft> running...
[20:13] <OerHeks> https://launchpad.net/~fpco/+archive/ubuntu/stack is empty, so you can safely remove that one.
[20:15] <ksft> done
[20:15] <ksft> k1l_: should I reboot now?
[20:15] <k1l_> ksft: no.
[20:16] <k1l_> "dpkg -l | grep lts | nc termbin.com 9999"
[20:16] <tast> hi
[20:17] <ksft> k1l_: http://termbin.coma78c
[20:17] <ksft> k1l_: http://termbin.com/a78c
[20:18] <k1l_> ksft: sudo apt purge linux-generic-lts-vivid linux-generic-lts-wily
[20:18] <akkonrad> after rebooting system with older kernel I was able to display login screen, but after login it dissappears for a second and shows up again, need to type password again and then situation goes the same: dissapears for a sec. and shows again
[20:19] <k1l_> akkonrad: does guest account work?
[20:19] <ksft> k1l_: done
[20:19] <k1l_> ksft: did it remove those 2 packages or more?
[20:19] <akkonrad> k1l_, no, same situation
[20:20] <Bashing-om> akkonrad: ' ls -al .Xauthority .ICEauthority ' do "you" own and are grouped in both files ?
[20:20] <ksft> k1l_: there's a big list of packages that "were automatically installed and are no longer required"
[20:20] <k1l_> ksft: "sudo apt autoremove"
[20:21] <ksft> k1l_: are you sure that's right?
[20:21] <ksft> "E: Invalid operation autoremove"
[20:21] <akkonrad> Bashing-om, is there any way to turn on terminal from login screen?
[20:22] <OerHeks> for 14.04 it is the old way> 3 apt-get
[20:22] <k1l_> ksft: yes. that should get rid of the vivid and wily kernels and xorg.
[20:22] <ksft> ah
[20:22] <Bashing-om> ksft: ' sudo apt-get autoremove ' apt does not support "autoremove" in 14.04 . ( does in 16.04 ) .
[20:22] <k1l_> ksft: ok, try apt-get instead of apt.
[20:22] <ksft> running
[20:22] <Mojtaba> Hello, I am using system proxy by ssh, and the problem is that thunderbird gives me connection refused for gmail. Do you know what should I do?
[20:23] <ksft> okay, done
[20:23] <elliot-59> anyone know how i can upgrade to the latest version of lxpanel (0.8.2) if its not on the ubuntu repos?
[20:24] <Bashing-om> k1l_: In respect to the above . recon it is save to get rid of the cruft ' dpkg --list |grep "^rc" | cut -d " " -f 3 | xargs sudo dpkg --purge ' ??
[20:25] <k1l_> ksft: ok, lets check with "dpkg -l | linux-image | nc termbin.com 9999"
[20:25] <ksft> k1l_: missing a "grep"?
[20:26] <k1l_> ksft: ok, lets check with "dpkg -l | grep linux-image | nc termbin.com 9999"
[20:26] <k1l_> ksft: yeah, sorry
[20:26] <ksft> k1l_: http://termbin.com/wtxn
[20:26] <k1l_> Bashing-om: yes, but i like to check those things
[20:26] <OerHeks> Mojtaba, go to https://myaccount.google.com >> Connected apps & sites >> and check "Access for less secure apps" might work for your proxy
[20:27] <k1l_> ksft: hmm, i wonder why those kernels are still present. they shouldnt
[20:28] <Mojtaba> OerHeks: it is checked already
[20:28] <OerHeks> Mojtaba, then i have no clue :-(
[20:28] <exezin> Hey, 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] <exezin> He is using a modern i3, with intel hd 530
[20:28] <exezin> After grub he just gets a black screen
[20:29] <exezin> Are there any known issues with Intel HD 530 and Ubuntu-based distros?
[20:29] <Bashing-om> !nomodeset | exezin
[20:29] <exezin> Bashing-om: Tried that
[20:29] <exezin> No luck
[20:29] <exezin> I'll have him give it another go though
[20:29] <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"
[20:30] <k1l_> ksft: that should remove all old kernels and headers in one go.
[20:30] <Bashing-om> exezin: that "nomodeset' does not apply to Intel graphics .
[20:30] <paracusia> hello, 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?
[20:31] <exezin> Bashing-om: uh, why did you suggest it then
[20:31] <exezin> We've been struggling for like two weeks trying to get this damn thing working :/
[20:31] <Bashing-om> exezin: I responded prior to seeing that Intel is a factor here .
[20:31] <exezin> Oh alright
[20:32] <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.
[20:33] <ksft> k1l_: "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 yes
[20:34] <ksft> k1l_: I don't have a chance to answer
[20:34] <ksft> it automatically aborts
[20:34] <k1l_> ksft: ok, wait. looks like xargs doesnt want user interaction.
[20:34] <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 -y purge"
[20:35] <k1l_> (made a -y at the last command, which will make it say yes automatically"
[20:35] <ksft> working now
[20:36] <exezin> Anyone have any suggestions?
[20:36] <exezin> I'm running out of forum threads to read here ;-;

[21:02] <ksft> k1l_: seems to be working now, without nomodeset!@
[21:02] <ksft> nomodeset!*
[21:03] <Bashing-om> ksft: Up and running the GUI ? .. no problems ?
[21:03] <ksft> Bashing-om: I think so!
[21:03] <ksft> now I just need to fix my original problem
[21:04] <Bashing-om> Great .. looks like we were trying to build the proprietary driver on a broken X stack !
[21:05] <ksft> ah
[21:05] <ksft> I was using primusrun before to run things on the dedicated graphics card
[21:06] <Bashing-om> ksft: Bumblebee is depreciated in favor of nvidia-prime . just so you know . The 2 will not co-exist !
[21:07] <ksft> Bashing-om: what's Bumblebee?
[21:08] <Bashing-om> ksft: primusrun I believe is the operator for BumbleBee .
[21:08] <Bashing-om> !bumblebee
[21:08] <ksft> so I shouldn't use Bumblebee?
[21:08] <ksft> how should I do it?
[21:09] <Bashing-om> ksft: As above .. BumbleBee is depreciated . use nvidia-prime . ( there are those cases where BumbleBee is the better option .. it is still maintained !) .
[21:10] <ksft> Bashing-om: how do I use nvidia-prime?
[21:11] <Bashing-om> ksft: I do not have it .. can not advise in that respect .
[21:12] <Bashing-om> ksft: Gor starters: ' apt show nvidia-prime ' .
[21:12] <Bashing-om> For*
[21:14] <Bashing-om> ksft: Are you up presently on the nouveau driver ? show ' sudo dpkg -C display ' .
[21:15] <ksft> Bashing-om: "--audit takes no arguments"
[21:16] <Bashing-om> ksft: Again my bad / ' sudo lshw -C display ' . Mind moving faster then fingers .
[21:16] <bitkid_> hello, I am unable to finish the ubuntu installation pelase help
[21:17] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/n82z
[21:19] <Bashing-om> ksft: Shows you are using the Intel chip set " configuration: driver=i915 " . And what results in nvidia-prime when you switch the graphics to Nvidia ?
[21:20] <Bashing-om> ksft: OR but but but .. may have to install the nvidia proprietary driver ! To have the ability to switch graphics sets .
[21:20] <ksft> Bashing-om: okay, how do I do that?
[21:22] <Bashing-om> ksft: Well .. same as before .. happy to see if 370 works now ? easy as ' sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' as we are working from a clean base .
[21:24] <bitkid_> Is there a way to see what driver i have installed?
[21:25] <bekks> driver for what?
[21:25] <bitkid_> or maby if there is a driver i need to install?
[21:25] <bitkid_> well my instrallation keeps crashing
[21:25] <bitkid_> im thinking its driver stuff for gpu
[21:28] <bitkid_> I can past an imige of the crash report
[21:30] <bitkid_> not sure what else to do iv been trying to get this thing running for the past week, it started with black led light screen then did the nomad(cant rember whole thing) now its just not finishing install :(:(:(
[21:30] <ksft> Bashing-om: running…
[21:30] <Abe_> one question I just clicked on creating a backup and it just eats all of my hdd space now. I probably have the wrong settings. cuz when i'm done with the backup i won't have any space on my hdd left. can I delete my backup. I would like to make a new backup but only of pc settings not all my files.
[21:31] <Abe_> so can I just cancel the backup and delete it somehow?
[21:32] <ksft> Bashing-om: should I reboot now?
[21:32] <Bashing-om> ksft: Yep. If ya feel all went well , reboot .
[21:32] <ksft> okay
[21:34] <ksft> Bashing-om: screen's black again
[21:34] <Bashing-om> ksft: YUK !
[21:35] <Abe_> can I just delete deja-dup folder to get rid of my backup?
[21:36] <Bashing-om> ksft: Let;s look at what fot installed ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia  ' .
[21:36] <Abe_> a yes would be enough
[21:36] <ksft> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/5qml
[21:38] <Bashing-om> ksft: Ouch ! I though we were in a "clean" state . nope ! " ii  bumblebee  " and all that cuda stuff .
[21:39] <ksft> Bashing-om: should I remove it?
[21:39] <ksft> libcuda* and bumblebee
[21:40] <Abe_> k thx
[21:40] <Abe_> google
[21:41] <Bashing-om> ksft: Out of my depth again . We did remove all that .. and it is back for some reason .. All I can do is reinerate that BumbleBee and nvidia-prime will not co-exist ! And I know nothing of cuda . Earlier today the slate was clean !
[21:42] <ksft> I might've reinstalled bumblebee when I was trying to run things on the nvidia graphics card
[21:42] <ksft> no idea where cuda came from, though
[21:42] <Abe_> ksft do you have nvidia optimus problems?
[21:42] <ksft> Abe_: yes
[21:43] <lp2178> good
[21:43] <ksft> I purged bumblebee
[21:43] <Abe_> make sure to disable secure boot in uefi and get the recommended driver thats how i got my running. optimus is a pain
[21:44] <ksft> Abe_: how do I get the recommended driver?
[21:44] <Abe_> under system settings and the additional drivers option
[21:44] <Abe_> then*
[21:44] <alshulaih> Hello World!
[21:44] <Abe_> hello alshulaih
[21:44] <ksft> okay, I'm going to reboot again
[21:46] <ksft> removed bumblebee
[21:46] <Abe_> ksft: what ubuntu version are you using
[21:46] <ksft> still a black screen on boot
[21:46] <ksft> Abe_: 14.04
[21:46] <Abe_> mine got a black screen too cuz I have also optimus
[21:47] <ksft> I don't think I have optimus
[21:47] <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 again
[21:48] <Abe_> or nvidia-prime what do you have for a graphics card. do you have this intel nvidia setup right?
[21:48] <ksft> Abe_: that's right
[21:48] <ksft> it only seems to boot correctly when I have no nvidia packages installed
[21:49] <Abe_> nvidia-prime is nvidia optimus. do you have a driver installed right now?
[21:49] <ksft> I had nvidia-370, nvidia-prime
[21:49] <ksft> nvidia-370 and nvidia-prime*
[21:49] <ksft> I just removed nvidia-prime
[21:49] <ksft> was about to reboot to see if that made it work
[21:50] <Abe_> yes just get the recommended driver
[21:50] <ksft> rebooting..
[21:50] <ksft> ...*
[21:50] <Abe_> I would remove the driver first with apt-get remove nvidia*
[21:52] <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 kernel
[21:52] <Abe_> iy*
[21:52] <Abe_> it*
[21:52] <ksft> so it boots when I have no nvidia* packages installed
[21:53] <ksft> otherwise, the screen goes black
[21:53] <Abe_> so you're using the standart noveau driver now?
[21:53] <ksft> without any of those packages installed, can I run programs on the nvidia graphics card?
[21:53] <ksft> Abe_: I don't know
[21:54] <Abe_> anything high graphical no i don't think so
[21:54] <ScrewedUp> I turned my storage into swap... am i shit out of luck on recovering data?
[21:54] <Abe_> well you have to actually
[21:54] <ksft> Abe_: have to what?
[21:54] <Abe_> oh sorry running the noveau driver now
[21:55] <Abe_> you already do it it's okay
[21:55] <ksft> I assumed it was just using the Intel graphics card
[21:55] <Abe_> it does but with open source drivers
[21:55] <ksft> oh, I thought nouveau was specifically for Nvidia graphics cards
[21:56] <foul_owl> What 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. I like the idea of using a fake tld (ie, .lan) but that's a no-no.
[21:56] <ksft> so how do I run things with the Nvidia one?
[21:56] <ScrewedUp> I wrote my storage space over into swap... is there a way to reverse it or recover data
[21:56] <Abe_> ksft: you have a laptop right? to get nvidia cards working you need to disable secure boot in your UEFI "Bios" too
[21:56] <ksft> done
[21:56] <Wulf> foul_owl: I registered a real domain with a short name
[21:56] <ksft> did that already
[21:58] <foul_owl> I was considering that
[21:59] <foul_owl> Urgh why isn't .lan reserved for internal use? It's so nice looking haha
[21:59] <Abe_> ksft: what laptop do you have there or what graphics card would be useful to know
[22:01] <eelstrebor> i have a problem with a dell xps15 touchpad after upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04 - the right click no longer works on the touchpad but works fine with an external mouse - i tried the suggestion @ https://askubuntu.com/questions/579645/right-click-on-synaptic-touchpad-not-working-on-ubuntu-14-10 but it didn't fix the problem. i haven't found anything else that suggests a fix
[22:02] <Abe_> i also went through a lot of trouble to get nvidia-prime running. i never used bumblebee though
[22:03] <ksft> Abe_: GTX …something
[22:03] <Roland_the_headl> -server darknetproject.anon/6697
[22:04] <ksft> Abe_: GTX 960M
[22:04] <ksft> Abe_: what Nvidia packages did/do you have  other than nvidia-prime?
[22:05] <Abe_> nothing just the nvidia driver
[22:05] <ksft> which is it?
[22:05] <Abe_> k now i can google for your card
[22:05] <Abe_> gt hold on
[22:06] <Abe_> i use gt 730M
[22:06] <ScrewedUp> i reformat my ext4 storage partition to swap - can i recover data?
[22:07] <Abe_> here google tells me this
[22:07] <Abe_> maybe that helps ksft http://askubuntu.com/questions/768959/ubuntu-16-04-nvidia-drivers-for-geforce-gtx-960m
[22:08] <ksft> I'm on 14.04, but maybe
[22:08] <Abe_> they use nvidia-364
[22:08] <Abe_> driver is driver
[22:08] <i_am_alive_here> can anyone help me install lg gp60ns50 dvd writer drivers on ubuntu?
[22:08] <Abe_> i don't think it makes a difference I also got that ppa actually :D also using a newer driver now
[22:09] <ksft> which one are you using?
[22:09] <ksft> why do I need a ppa to install nvidia-264?
[22:09] <Abe_> well i have a different card so I use nvidia 358
[22:09] <ksft> 264*
[22:09] <ksft> 364**
[22:10] <Abe_> ksft: they give you the newest drivers
[22:11] <Abe_> but i know that you should actually recommend doing this
[22:11] <Abe_> not*
[22:11] <ksft> then what should I do?
[22:13] <Abe_> ksft: to be honest I would try it anyway different driver maybe fixes it. maybe*
[22:14] <ksft> okay
[22:14] <ksft> installing nvidia-364
[22:15] <ksft> if it doesn't boot correctly after, I'll uninstall it and install nvidia-prime
[22:15] <Abe_> ksft: after I added this ppa I had lots to choose from. not all are working but my recommended one originally was nvidia-352 and now I'm using nvidia-358. the other once will not work like 370 they recommend me not working. http://www0.xup.in/exec/ximg.php?fid=73317691
[22:18] <Abe_> ksft: but my problem back then wasn't the driver... even if people don't believe me, it was the kernel i was using for some reason. it just wouldn't boot with it. i chose in grub menu my old kernel and it booted right up
[22:20] <eelstrebor> this is strange, xinput --list doesn't display the touchpad
[22:24] <ScrewedUp> i reformatted my ext4 storage partition to swap - can i recover data?
[22:29] <Hanumaan> I have Fedora 24, Ubuntu 16.04(just upgraded with errors) and Windows grub2 is controlled by Fedora but in Ubuntu I suppose it is not finding the partition .. and getting this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23068723/ how to resolve? is it possible to control the grub2 with ubuntu without loosing any OS?
[22:32] <Bashing-om> !testdisk | ScrewedUp Not at all sure as swap has no file system
[22:32] <ScrewedUp> right?
[22:32] <Bashing-om> !recovery
[22:32] <ScrewedUp> i haven't even used the partition so it seems doable to undo the formatting
[22:33] <ScrewedUp> i'm trying to recover data on the partition
[22:34] <Bashing-om> ScrewedUp: Not at all sure , but try some of these :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery as swap has no file system .
[22:37] <manuel_> hola
[22:37] <ksft> now I can't boot at all
[22:37] <ksft> the screen goes pinkish purple
[22:38] <ksft> I'm on a different computer now
[22:38] <ksft> help?
[22:40] <lordcirth> ksft, choose fallback/recovery/whatever at grub menu?
[22:40] <zaccanasta> so no qtwebengine in ubuntu
[22:41] <zaccanasta> qtwebkit has been removed on windows
[22:41] <zaccanasta> afaik
[22:41] <k1l> zaccanasta: that depends on the qt version. not the base os
[22:41] <zaccanasta> qt 5.5 i guess
[22:42] <zaccanasta> the last supporting qtwebkit
[22:42] <ksft> lordcirth: that doesn't work either
[22:42] <k1l> and that is what 16.04 shipps.
[22:43] <k1l> !info qt5-default
[22:43] <zaccanasta> well i guess i must use a bunch of #ifdefs for supporting both
[22:45] <zaccanasta> fedora for instance has qt5-qtwebengine, why is it not possible in ubuntu?
[22:45] <k1l> zaccanasta: iirc the change came with qt5.6
[22:46] <zaccanasta> i've been told no qtwebengine support in ubuntu even with qt5.6
[22:47] <k1l> ah yeah, its included since qt 5.4, but its an issue on debian and ubuntu
[22:48] <odroid_> hi
[22:48] <ksft> can anyone help me?
[22:48] <odroid_> ciaoooo
[22:48] <odroid_> ciaoooo
[22:48] <odroid_> ciaoooo
[22:49] <k1l> zaccanasta: https://marc.info/?l=kde-core-devel&m=142954900813235&w=2 this gives you some background
[22:50] <k1l> zaccanasta: and here is some more uptodate view on it: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kubuntu-devel/2016-May/010438.html
[22:51] <zaccanasta> i know it's been a pain in the neck even for fedora (a dependency mess)
[22:52] <DC85> Greetings, i'm kind of in panic with a RAID issue in a factory server, i need help
[22:53] <lordcirth> DC85, Step 1: Don't panic.  Step 2: Tell us the actual problem.
[22:54] <DC85> Hi mister lodcirth thank you for your atention, let me write it
[22:55] <i-make-robots> hi!  I'm running LTS 12.04.  I've tried to follow the upgrade instructions for latest php5.5 and I keep getting 5.5.37.  MediaWiki is insisting that to run their latest I need 5.5.9.  What do?
[22:55] <ksft> I can't boot Ubuntu. The screen goes pinkish purple, and I can't do anything.
[22:56] <TheMar|us> any news regarding the new AMD drivers so i get life in my old 5870 again?
[22:56] <ksft> If I try to use recovery mode, there's a bunch of text I obviously can't pastebin.
[22:56] <k1l> TheMar|us: radeon is the only chance you have. there will be no amd support for that old cards
[22:56] <TheMar|us> i have radeon 5870
[22:57] <OerHeks> TheMar|us, no, the open radeon driver should work for you, as it does for me
[22:57] <k1l> radeon is the kernel open source driver
[22:57] <TheMar|us> many steam games wont run
[22:57] <Hoshi> tfw when you got radeon 3000 built in your mobo
[22:57] <TheMar|us> ah ok
[22:57] <lordcirth> i-make-robots, well, you should probably use a newer version of Ubuntu than 12.04.  That's almost done support.
[22:57] <TheMar|us> so i guess it will be nvidia next time i buy a computer
[22:58] <k1l> TheMar|us: amd stopped making fglrx. the now help making amd_gpu in the kernel, but they wont support old cards. you need a new cng card
[22:58] <i-make-robots> lordcirth - how, please?  I'm old, I need a reminder.
[22:58] <lordcirth> TheMar|us, new AMD cards are supported, just not old ones.
[22:58] <OerHeks> TheMar|us, or a recent AMD card, AMDgpu driver is more advanced.
[22:58] <Hoshi> ToMar|us lets see when AMDGPU will get better perfomance to the good level.
[22:58] <OerHeks> AMDgpu is also opensource.
[22:58] <TheMar|us> atleast rx 480 has a descent price
[22:59] <Hoshi> Oerheks - 880fps on linux vs 2500fps on glxgears windows port? no thanks
[22:59] <k1l> the amd_gpu setup is way better for linux users. but it needs some more time and work right now
[22:59] <lordcirth> i-make-robots, does this server have other things on it?  Migrating to 16.04 may be some work, if so.
[22:59] <lordcirth> Hoshi, glxgears is not a benchmark
[22:59] <Hoshi> still, my 8500M in laptop still works really slower at Wine than on windows
[22:59] <Hoshi> dont tested it on steam games so far
[23:00] <Hoshi> what about 6790? is that card supported by linux driver? should be
[23:00] <lordcirth> Hoshi, Wine being slow is Wine, not drivers
[23:00] <mr-rich-76> Does 16.04.1 have a good olde-fasion "run command" dialogue?
[23:00] <Hoshi> maybe
[23:00] <lordcirth> mr-rich-76, Alt, if I remember correctly?
[23:01] <k1l> mr-rich-76: alt+f2?
[23:02] <DC85> I 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] <DC85>  While checking the arrays with "mdstat -D /dev/mdX" i by mistake removed 2 hdds from the raid10 array and added them to the raid1 array
[23:03] <DC85> and tried to mdadm --assemble --scan
[23:04] <DC85> now the mdadm -D reports 2 spare disks on my raid array. I the removed them and stoped the raid10 array which now misses 2 disks. Im afraid i messed it up...
[23:04] <DC85> *now the mdadm -D reports 2 spare disks on my raid1 array.
[23:09] <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] <lordcirth> DC85, this may help: https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID_Recovery
[23:12] <DC85> lordcirth im afraid something wrong might have been written to those disks oh my
[23:12] <lordcirth> DC85, And this is one of the many reasons that "RAID is not backups" :(
[23:15] <DC85> lordcirth the mdadm --examine now tells me that the unwanted drives are part of the wrong array :(
[23:15] <DC85> and i cant add them to the wanted array because i stoped it
[23:18] <Bashing-om> ksft: Can you boot to grub's boot menu ? from there we can try and activate a terminal interface .
[23:20] <lordcirth> DC85, you could try the linux-raid mailing list mentioned in the article.
[23:26] <clifton1970> hi all
[23:26] <clifton1970> can i install a ubuntu version on a dvr?
[23:26] <ksft> Bashing-om: I can
[23:26] <ksft> how do I do that?
[23:26] <ksft> "activate a terminal interface"
[23:27] <ksft> I have grub's boot menu open now
[23:27] <soee> anyone was using is using ubuntu lite kernel ?
[23:29] <OerHeks>  ubuntu lite kernel ??
[23:29] <OerHeks> soee, tell us more about it.. it is not official though.
[23:30] <soee> http://repo.linuxliteos.com/linuxlite/pool/main/l/lite-kernel/
[23:30] <OerHeks> soee, i see, not supported here AFAIK
[23:31] <soee> im asking because of http://news.softpedia.com/news/linux-lite-s-devs-invite-ubuntu-and-debian-users-to-install-the-latest-kernels-507412.shtml
[23:31] <OerHeks> Nope, i won't. as i loose support here :-)
[23:31] <Bashing-om> ksft: press the 'e' key for edit mode -> boot option screen. The line starting with linux containing quiet splash. replace quite splash with the term text. key combo ctl+x to continie to TTY1 . Log in here .
[23:32] <OerHeks> soee, and carefull, latest might not be the best for your system now.
[23:32] <ksft> replace it with what?
[23:32] <ksft> what's "the term text"?
[23:33] <Bashing-om> ksft: one word "text" with out the quotes .
[23:33] <ksft> Bashing-om: okaty
[23:33] <ksft> okay*
[23:33] <ksft> the screen still goes purple
[23:36] <OerHeks> soee, and what is light about it? our 4.7 kernel = 47 mb, and *your light kernel* 61 mb ... troll-lol-lol
[23:37] <soee> light is distribution name
[23:37] <Bashing-om> ksft: Only one kernel left installed ?
[23:37] <mentoc> Has anyone had any luck with running apt-get upgrade in the cron?
[23:37] <mentoc> I'm pretty sure it's a bad idea
[23:37] <mentoc> but I've been told to make it happen :/
[23:38] <ksft> Bashing-om: I think so
[23:38] <OerHeks> soee, you better look for their irc channel then. inviting people here to use it, is not done.
[23:39] <Bashing-om> ksft: Well we got to boot something . Ya got a liveDVD of 14.04 on hand ?
[23:40] <lordcirth> mentoc, don't you just need -y ?
[23:40] <ksft> Bashing-om: I don't
[23:40] <ksft> I might have a USB thing...I'll look...
[23:41] <Bashing-om> ksft: A liveUSB of 14.04 will work .
[23:41] <soee> OerHeks: well im sure all this distro user use it :) i was wondering if any ubuntu is using it and this is best plae to ask
[23:41] <OerHeks> soee, no we don't.
[23:41] <Bashing-om> ksft: One can also try and boot the OS from grub .. maybe ?
[23:42] <OerHeks> soee, it is an other distro, take it to #ubuntu-offtopic maybe?
[23:42] <OerHeks> .. with a huge kernel, lite?
[23:43] <ksft> Bashing-om: how?
[23:44] <ksft> not sure if this is relevant: I also have Windows installed, but it won't connect to the internet
[23:44] <Bashing-om> ksft: We tell grub where the config files are located . see if the system boots .
[23:46] <ksft> okay, how?
[23:47] <mentoc> I 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.conf
