| nevelli | hi, I'm looking for some help with a particular issue related to nvidia drivers, but I don't know exactly where to direct my questions to | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| nevelli | (I think) I have located the section of the logs which provides the errors, but again, I don't know how to go about addressing the issue | 00:05 |

| nacc | !ask | blackbird1, although you might get a faster response in a more appropriate channel, e.g. ##linux | 00:09 |
| ubottu | blackbird1, although you might get a faster response in a more appropriate channel, e.g. ##linux: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 00:09 |

| doolboot | hello 0erHeks i am back | 00:12 |
| doolboot | i would like to ask you guys, which partition scheme should i use for my windows10 installation alongside ubuntu? | 00:13 |
| doolboot | MBR for BIOS or UEF-CSM, MBR for UEFI, or GPT for UEFI | 00:13 |
| doolboot | i am installing windows 10 on a separate drive from ubuntu, but which partition scheme do i chose? | 00:14 |
| Pikia | Usually, you would want to install windows 10 first | 00:14 |
| Pikia | then ubuntu | 00:14 |
| doolboot | i know but i do not want to reinstall ubuntu :( | 00:15 |
| Pikia | Then you'll have to deal with Windows 10 deleting GRUB | 00:15 |
| doolboot | i have a separate hard drive just for windows though, and a separate one for ubuntu | 00:15 |
| Pikia | and then you won't even be able to boot into your Ubuntu | 00:15 |
| Pikia | Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't see that | 00:15 |
| doolboot | even if it is on separate hard drives will it delete GRUB? | 00:15 |
| Pikia | In that case, I would assume UEFI | 00:15 |
| Pikia | Just disconnect the drive with ubuntu on it when installing windows 10 | 00:16 |
| doolboot | okay, and would i use MBR or GPT partition scheme? for UEFI | 00:16 |
| doolboot | i have 2 options here when burning the windows ISO to a uSB | 00:16 |
| Pikia | Just download RUFUS | 00:17 |
| Pikia | Google it and use it to burn the ISO to a USB | 00:17 |
| Pikia | Its much more streamlined and easier | 00:17 |
| doolboot | yes i have rufus, its just that it gives me different options for the partition scheme and im not sure if i should do MBR or GPT | 00:18 |
| doolboot | i think i will stick with GPT since its newer | 00:18 |
| === Guest77375 is now known as minsky | ||
| Pikia | I just left mine on defualt. | 00:18 |
| Pikia | MBR iirc | 00:19 |
| doolboot | alright yea | 00:19 |
| doolboot | thanks | 00:19 |
| nairwolf | Hi, I've discovered the command 'tabs' but I don't understand what it does. Is it possible that this command does nothing with some terminal ? | 00:20 |
| doolboot | and does it matter whether i configure the ISO to FAT32 or NTFS? will it install as NTFS anyways once i boot from USB? | 00:20 |
| lurkashflake | where is my external cd/dvd reader/burner being detected at? | 00:21 |
| Pikia | doolboot: youre going to want NTFS for windows | 00:22 |
| doolboot | ok | 00:22 |
| lurkashflake | brasero doesn't detect my external cd/dvd burner | 00:23 |
| lurkashflake | I am on a live Ubuntu 14 cd | 00:23 |
| Pikia | does ubuntu detect it lurkashflake ? | 00:25 |
| lurkashflake | I don't think so | 00:25 |
| lurkashflake | lsblk doesn't show it | 00:25 |
| Pikia | Stupid question, but is it connected? | 00:26 |
| razeal113 | having an issue with partitions after an install and need advice, posted my question here http://askubuntu.com/questions/815581/help-understanding-partitions-on-ubuntu | 00:26 |
| Pikia | My drive sometimes turns off by itself :/ | 00:26 |
| lurkashflake | Yes it is | 00:26 |
| Pikia | razeal113: I'm having a hard time understanding your question | 00:27 |
| Pikia | Do you want to know what all the parttions means? | 00:27 |
| Pikia | lurkashflake: I'm probably not the best person to ask about this XD But could it be a driver issue?? | 00:28 |
| Pikia | It seems really unlikely though. | 00:28 |
| lurkashflake | I'll plug in another drive instead :) | 00:28 |
| Pikia | razeal113: sda3 is your swap partition, think of it as extra ram in case you run out of ram. | 00:28 |
| Pikia | A lot of people argue about wheater or not you should have more or less, but in the end its up to you and how you use your machine | 00:29 |
| razeal113 | Pikia: I appear to be using only the sda3 memory though and don't seem to have access to sda2 memory | 00:29 |
| Pikia | You don't have access to it? | 00:29 |
| Pikia | razeal113: I might be wrong on this, but it might be beacause your sda2 is formatted in the wrong partition type | 00:31 |
| doolboot | thanks for help guys, i think i will use win10 iso with GPT UEFI and NTFS formatting. i will come back here if i come into trouble installing tomorrow | 00:32 |
| razeal113 | Pikia: what partition type should it be in? And if it is wrong, can i change it ? | 00:32 |
| Pikia | I liked, ext4 is okay. | 00:34 |
| Pikia | I'm not sure why youre not able to acess it though, I'm sorry | 00:35 |
| Pikia | http://askubuntu.com/questions/19796/filesystem-types-for-partitions | 00:35 |
| Pikia | This is a good link to read up on patition types | 00:35 |
| nevelli | hi, I'm looking for some help with a particular issue related to nvidia drivers, (I think) I have located the section of the logs which provides the errors, but I don't know how to go about addressing the issue or where to post the log exerpts for more help | 00:36 |
| Pikia | nevelli: Try here :D But it seems a lot of people aren't really active atm./ | 00:37 |
| Pikia | I can try to help... but my knowledge in linux is pretty limited | 00:37 |
| nevelli | ok, so basically, i have graphics issues where the system locks up, the mouse is still moving, sound is working, networking functions, but otherwise the system is unresponsive | 00:38 |
| nevelli | also most notably... the system doesn't come back from sleep | 00:39 |
| Pikia | For the sleep issue, did you set up a swap partition? | 00:39 |
| Pikia | and how big is it? | 00:39 |
| nevelli | swap partition is 64gb i believe | 00:39 |
| nevelli | one sec | 00:39 |
| nevelli | excuse me | 00:40 |
| nevelli | 16gb | 00:40 |
| nevelli | i have 64gb of ram though | 00:40 |
| Pikia | That should be more than enough, considering you have 64gb of ram. | 00:40 |
| Pikia | I've run into problems with sleep before because my HDD actually shut down due to bios stuffies fucking with it | 00:40 |
| Pikia | That MAY be an issue | 00:41 |
| nevelli | so here is the syslog | 00:41 |
| nevelli | Aug 22 17:04:26 U16-5820K kernel: [40230.909058] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: fifo: PBDMA0: 00200000 [METHOD] ch 5 [023f971000 compiz[5454]] subc 0 mthd 00fc data 0000000a | 00:41 |

| dancingd3mon | I've a general question, I want to install windows using vmware workstation | 00:42 |

| dancingd3mon | it says a message that i need 2 gb swap memory, may i know what is that? | 00:43 |
| nevelli | it means you need to allocate 2GB to a partition for the system to use | 00:43 |
| dancingd3mon | but it already took 60 gb | 00:43 |
| dancingd3mon | and i have 5 tb left | 00:43 |
| nevelli | for swap? | 00:44 |
| dancingd3mon | I gave it 4 gb of ram | 00:44 |
| dancingd3mon | idk what swap is tbh | 00:44 |
| dancingd3mon | what is it needed for ? | 00:44 |
| nevelli | the system uses it in case you run out of ram | 00:44 |
| Pikia | Think of it as RAM | 00:44 |
| nevelli | ^ | 00:44 |
| Pikia | nevelli: im not sure whats going on tbh. Im sorry | 00:45 |
| Tin_man | slow ram | 00:45 |
| nevelli | it is a seperate partition on the hdd exclusively reserved for the system to swap data to and from like ram... | 00:45 |
| dancingd3mon | okay, so how to check my swap memory ? I guess I can't add more data to swap without formatting my whole server, correct? | 00:45 |
| nevelli | Pikia: where sohuld I go to for help with this? | 00:46 |
| nevelli | yes you can | 00:46 |
| razeal113 | Pikia: when running a VM i get the error that I only have 3.6Gig of ram available. This is what led me to think that its an issue with the partitions. Its as if it only sees the swap memory. | 00:46 |
| dancingd3mon | may i know how nevelli ? | 00:46 |
| nevelli | you can use gparted... and craeat a spap partition at the end of the volume | 00:46 |
| nevelli | create a swap ** | 00:46 |
| Pikia | Is windows the host or the guest os? | 00:47 |
| Pikia | nevelli: tbh... I'm not sure. You can try ##linux and see if theyre willing to help | 00:47 |
| dancingd3mon | guest os | 00:47 |
| dancingd3mon | Idk how to do this nevelli :( but thanks anyway | 00:47 |
| dancingd3mon | any guide to follow? | 00:47 |
| Pikia | dancingd3mon: Try google. | 00:47 |
| Pikia | dancingd3mon: I'm not sure why its asking for swap memory for windows tbh. I didin't think windows suported swap but I might be wrong | 00:48 |
| nevelli | dancingd3mon: google -> gparted create swap partition at the end of the volume | 00:48 |
| Tin_man | yes windows does have a swap, not called swap though. | 00:49 |
| Tin_man | Pagefile in windows | 00:49 |
| dancingd3mon | okay so all i did was install vmware workstation on ubuntu and then I edit the configuration to use 4 gb of ram and left the rest, I chose the iso and then that message showed up. the ram was 1 gb and I raised it to 4 | 00:49 |
| dancingd3mon | maybe thats why the swap message showed up? | 00:50 |
| Tin_man | yes, i believe so, but it's been a long time since i've run a VM | 00:50 |
| Tin_man | how much total ram do you have? | 00:50 |
| dancingd3mon | 16 gb | 00:50 |
| nevelli | dancingd3mon: i didn't realize you were talking about a VM | 00:50 |
| dancingd3mon | yup it's a VM :) all good | 00:51 |
| Tin_man | 4 should be fine, just continue, see what happens | 00:51 |
| dancingd3mon | thanks, It has been showing this finalizing your settings since forever | 00:51 |
| dancingd3mon | waiting for it to finish and see what will happen | 00:52 |
| Tin_man | i run normal windows 10 with 2gb physical memory.. | 00:52 |
| dancingd3mon | okay so i have lxde-core installed, will I need always to vnc to my server and view my VM that way ? it's like a window inside a window. | 00:52 |
| dancingd3mon | http://prntscr.com/c95q5z | 00:53 |
| Tin_man | don't know, like I said, been over 2 years since I've played around with a VM | 00:53 |
| dancingd3mon | all good Tin_man | 00:53 |
| dancingd3mon | many thanks guys | 00:53 |
| Tin_man | np | 00:53 |

| FinalX | Sweepyoface: can you resolve hostnames? i had it a few times and it was that my /etc/resolv.conf was messed up | 00:55 |
| Sweepyoface | as a matter of fact I cant.. | 00:55 |
| Sweepyoface | FinalX, how did you fix it? | 00:55 |
| FinalX | by setting a nameserver in /etc/resolvconf/resolvconf.d/base and restarting resolvconf | 00:57 |
| FinalX | eh, /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base | 00:57 |
| FinalX | but i have to go now :) sorry | 00:57 |

| tripelb | where do I ask this question? Is it posaible to get into another computer when you are both attqched to the same wifi network? | 01:05 |

| Kev__ | I downloaded gnome ppp and saved to a USB, how do I get ubuntu ro install it from the flash drive ? | 01:06 |
| Pikia | Kev__: set your bios to boot to usb | 01:07 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, a .deb package? | 01:07 |
| lordcirth | tripelb, Use SSH or VNC | 01:07 |
| Kev__ | idk | 01:07 |
| Kev__ | I set my windows 7 laptop to boot ubuntu from a dvd | 01:07 |
| Kev__ | I am trying it out | 01:07 |
| philspain | hi, I have a problem with permissions to var/www folder. when I try to access with cd var/www I get "file/dir not exists" but I can create files in there with nano. I'm using ubuntu 16.04 on vps and ls -al /var/www states drwxrwsr-x 2 ghost www-data 4096 Aug 23 00:51 html | 01:08 |
| Kev__ | want to be able to configure my usb720 modem to connect to verizon wireless | 01:08 |
| lordcirth | philspain, perhaps you are forgetting the leading slash? /var/www | 01:08 |
| philspain | omg# | 01:08 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, and you have the ppp package on a USB? | 01:08 |
| philspain | thanks! | 01:08 |
| Kev__ | yes | 01:09 |
| Kev__ | ubuntu shows it and its folder contents | 01:09 |
| tripelb | lordcirth: re use ssh or vnc. i want to share my neighbors wifi but he is afraid. | 01:09 |
| lordcirth | tripelb, what are you trying to do exactly? | 01:09 |
| Kev__ | but I can't get it to install in my system | 01:09 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, you should be able to rightclick on the package, I think, and install? | 01:09 |
| Kev__ | tried that, no go | 01:10 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, define no go. What error? | 01:10 |
| Kev__ | could it be because I have not installed ubuntu onto my harddrive ? | 01:10 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, I forget if you can install packages in the LiveCD or not | 01:10 |
| Kev__ | this is a whole new world to me, I can tell ubuntu is going to kill brain cells | 01:11 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, ah, apparently you can't. | 01:11 |
| tripelb | lordcirth: VNC is a graphical desk sharing system. How does that apply to me? | 01:11 |
| Kev__ | but I am getting sick of windows crap | 01:11 |
| lordcirth | tripelb, well, seeing as you haven't been very clear about what you want, I'm guessing here | 01:12 |
| elliot-59 | just install linux on ur pc | 01:12 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, Do you have 4GB+ RAM? You should consider trying Ubuntu in Virtualbox instead, and/or dual booting. | 01:12 |
| elliot-59 | or dualboot if youre not ready for a full transition | 01:12 |
| Kev__ | I have 4 GB of RAM | 01:13 |
| Kev__ | wanted to see how I would like it before committing to install | 01:13 |
| Kev__ | 300 GB harddrive | 01:13 |
| Kev__ | so I have lots of space and memory | 01:13 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, so you can try Ubuntu in a virtual machine inside Windows then. You will be able to install packages, it'll just be a bit slow | 01:13 |
| elliot-59 | lubuntu should run a bit faster too | 01:14 |
| tripelb | lordcirth: i want to find a way to make my neighbor safe from the "perhaps" of me spying on his computer. i thought the defense would be in the firewall on his router. i was planning on buying a wifi extender. | 01:14 |
| Kev__ | I was hoping to try it online but can't get my modem working with it | 01:14 |
| lordcirth | tripelb, oh, you want to set up wifi such that you can use it without access to his network? | 01:15 |
| tripelb | lordcirth: he gets wifi. i dont want to pay for it separately when we could have it together. | 01:15 |
| lordcirth | Well, that would imply he trusts you to set up his network, since whoever sets that up controls it | 01:16 |
| Kev__ | I was hoping to get comfortable with the language and features before installing | 01:16 |
| tripelb | lordcirth: that is correct. | 01:16 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, Virtualbox sounds like the best route to me., | 01:16 |
| galaxiax | algum br ai? | 01:16 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, https://www.virtualbox.org/ Just install it on Windows, make a VM, and give it the Ubuntu ISO. | 01:17 |
| Kev__ | Thanks, I'm thinking along the same line | 01:17 |
| Pikia | Kev__: What exavtly are you tired of with windows? | 01:17 |
| galaxiax | alguem do brasil? | 01:17 |
| Kev__ | I'm tired of things that just quit working for no reason | 01:17 |
| lordcirth | tripelb, I don't think there's a way for you to make his network secure against you unless he trusts you to begin with | 01:17 |
| lordcirth | tripelb, unless perhaps you suggest solutions to him and he implements them. | 01:18 |
| Kev__ | I tried to get 4 small updates, 24.2 MB for a week, refused to download them | 01:18 |
| elliot-59 | i want to program a script that mutes my system when is shutting down and unmutes it after it boots, how would i go about doing that? | 01:18 |
| tripelb | lordcirth: i didnt know that. i am disappointed. | 01:18 |
| tripelb | and thanks. | 01:18 |
| Kev__ | I ended up having to manually download and install them | 01:18 |
| lordcirth | elliot-59, do you perhaps just want to disable the shutdown and bootup sounds? | 01:18 |
| budder | hey guys, looking to install ubuntu for the first time. the installation guide recommends 1gb of memory and 10gb of hard drive. I understand the hard disk part, but why the RAM? Does this mean 1gb of RAM will ONLY be working while running ubuntu and now I will only have 7 for when using windows? | 01:19 |
| elliot-59 | yeah, plus this annoying beep my laptop makes after its plugges/unplugged, cant seem to find a way to get rid of it | 01:19 |
| budder | (if i had a 8gb of RAM of course) | 01:20 |
| Pikia | budder: Are you trying to dual boot or do a fresh install of ubuntu? | 01:20 |
| lordcirth | budder, whatever OS is running always owns all the RAM. | 01:20 |
| lordcirth | RAM is short-term memory, the stuff in it is wiped when you reboot | 01:20 |
| budder | Pikia: i want to dual boot, but i have never installed ubuntu before so idk if that counts as a fresh install? | 01:20 |
| tripelb | question: I have 14.04 with /home in a separate partition. i want to install 16.04 in its own partition and I want to use the same /home. Is there any way I can make the mistake or erasing the current-existing /home partition? | 01:20 |
| elliot-59 | budder: what you read only means that ubuntu needs 1g of ram minimum to run correctly | 01:20 |
| budder | lordcirth: then why allocate memory? this is confusing me | 01:20 |
| lordcirth | budder, you don't need to "allocate" RAM. Your computer just has to have at least 1GB or it won't work. | 01:21 |
| Pikia | It seems to be youre trying to install ubuntu inside a VM | 01:21 |
| galaxiax | alguem do brasil? | 01:21 |
| lordcirth | elliot-59, as for the beep, you could try blacklisting pcspkr module | 01:21 |
| budder | lordcirth: okay i see. but you do need to allocate hard disk space right? i believe my confusion was coming from thinking that you also need to allocate RAM the way you do hard disk space. does this seem correct to you? | 01:22 |
| budder | Pikia: what is a VM? | 01:22 |
| budder | Pikia: i want to install alongside windows | 01:22 |
| lordcirth | He's not using a VM, ignore that | 01:22 |
| Pikia | You run two OS at the same time. | 01:22 |
| Kev__ | I will try the VM thing and dual boot, thank you for the help, I'm sure I will be back with more questions | 01:23 |
| Pikia | Ah, okay. Yeah im stupod./ | 01:23 |
| lordcirth | budder, Hard disk space is persistent, you do need to allocate that, yes. | 01:23 |
| kyles_ | Hello. On my laptop, my mouse does not move after some boots. Does anybody know what could cause this? | 01:24 |
| budder | lordcirth: then what exactly is a swap? I thought that that was RAM you had to set aside for ubuntu? i'm quite confused... | 01:24 |
| elliot-59 | vm is a virtual machine, kind of like an emulator that runs inside windows and can load linux or other os's, dual booting means you install both os's on your hard drive and log in to the one you want every time you boot up | 01:24 |
| elliot-59 | if youre just trying it out is easier to run it on a vm | 01:24 |
| lordcirth | budder, swap is space on the hard drive which Linux can use if you run out of RAM. | 01:24 |
| milf | check out my new free shell: http://djangoshell.net23.net | 01:24 |
| lordcirth | It's much slower but it's better than crashing | 01:24 |
| milf | check out my new free shell: http://djangoshell.net23.net | 01:25 |
| budder | lordcirth: so is that something you need to manually set? and if my PC has 8gbs of RAM, that is not something I need to worry about, correct? | 01:25 |
| elliot-59 | swap is for older computer with small ram so that linux can use hard drive space as ram, nowadays i dont think you need swap though with like 8 gb of ram | 01:25 |
| milf | check out my new free shell: http://djangoshell.net23.net | 01:25 |
| lordcirth | budder, swap is optional with 8GB of RAM. | 01:25 |

| budder | since i have 8gb already | 01:27 |
| elliot-59 | budder: youre fine | 01:27 |
| lordcirth | budder, up to you. If you have lots of hard drive space, you can. | 01:27 |
| milf | srry | 01:27 |
| budder | elliot-59: okay thanks. so would you suggest allocating 10gb of hard disk space? or +/-? | 01:28 |
| lordcirth | budder, 20 to 40GB | 01:28 |
| elliot-59 | ^^ what he said | 01:28 |
| lordcirth | 10 is only fine if you don't intend on actually installing anything :P | 01:29 |

| evalde | What would you guys say is the best way to learn linux/ubuntu (shell, file systems, etc.)? | 01:33 |
| milf | free shell | 01:33 |
| milf | check mine out at http://djangoshell.net23.net | 01:33 |
| lordcirth | evalde, there are some online tutorials, one sec | 01:33 |

| lordcirth | milf, that is completely offtopic here, even if you weren't spamming it | 01:34 |
| elliot-59 | evalde: everything you mentioned, try to learn how to do everything you would normally do with the terminal, shell scripting, just mess around, break stuff, fix stuff..... at leas thats how i am learning | 01:35 |
| budder | lordcirth: elliot-59 is it possible to adjust the partition later? | 01:35 |
| lordcirth | evalde, http://overthewire.org/wargames/bandit/ Bandit is a fun terminal - based game | 01:35 |
| lordcirth | budder, it is but it's a bit of a hassle so I'd suggest just giving it lots | 01:35 |
| elliot-59 | budder: on a vm? | 01:35 |
| milf | evalde look at http://djangoshell.net23.net | 01:35 |
| budder | elliot-59: no i want to dual boot alongside windows | 01:35 |
| elliot-59 | you have low space? just give it like 40 or something just in case, i mean you can readjust partition sizes but like lordcirth mentioned, its a bit of a hassle | 01:36 |

| darkmessiah511 | Hello. Tell me a good text editor to you with Pyton on Ubuntu 16.04 | 02:10 |
| darkmessiah511 | use* | 02:11 |
| bob_ | lordcirth: I'm not sure how to tell... but now that I'm shelled in I can run commands as root. How can I discover which video card I'm using from the cli ? | 02:11 |
| bob_ | Allahu: what would that command do? | 02:11 |
| lordcirth | bob_, lspci | grep VGA | 02:11 |
| bad | /whois $me | 02:11 |
| Allahu | bob_: maybe you reconfigure X works | 02:11 |
| th0r | darkmessiah511, is nedit still available? | 02:12 |
| bob_ | lordcirth:VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM206 [GeForce GTX 960] (rev a1) | 02:12 |
| lordcirth | bob_, very nice. How'd you get a 860 without noticing? :P | 02:12 |
| lordcirth | 960* | 02:12 |
| Allahu | well i make custom iso of ubuntu using uck, but vmlinuz.efi no go. error /lib/modules/3.5.0-23-generic/module.dep: No such file or directory... so... my current kernel is 3.5.0-54-generic... vmlinuz work vmlinuz.efi dont | 02:13 |
| bob_ | I don't know anything about that card. I'm only an expert on video cards for the two or three hours before I buy one. | 02:13 |
| bob_ | I just needed a card that could run two monitors and lots of browser tabs. | 02:13 |
| lordcirth | bob_, " glxinfo | grep -i vendor " Do you get "NVIDIA Corporation"? | 02:14 |
| darkmessiah511 | <thor> i think is no more supported for 16.04 | 02:15 |

| bob_ | interesting | 02:15 |
| lordcirth | wierd | 02:16 |
| bob_ | does grep work differently these days? | 02:16 |
| bob_ | I did 'unalias grep', ran that command again, and got the same result | 02:16 |
| lordcirth | bob_, are you using a shell other than bash? | 02:16 |
| th0r | darkmessiah511, that's a shame, but doesn't surprise me. that is why I switched to debian, and now use raspbian for everything. just checked, it is in the repos for raspbian | 02:16 |
| bob_ | lordcirth: oh yes! I'm using zsh | 02:17 |
| lordcirth | bob_, anyways, the command still works, right? | 02:17 |
| lordcirth | bob_, that's it then. | 02:17 |

| bob_ | drat. that fix doesnt work. I logged out and then shelled back in again. But with the new shell i still can't grep | 02:22 |
| Kev__ | This kernel requires an x86-64 cpu but only detected an i686 cpu. What gives? I am running windows 7 64 bit !! | 02:22 |
| bob_ | 'unset GREP _OPTIONS' | 02:23 |
| bob_ | that worked | 02:23 |
| lordcirth | bob_, excellent | 02:23 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, perhaps you made the VM 32-bit | 02:23 |
| Kev__ | that was my only choice that I saw | 02:23 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, select the VM from the list and go to Settings | 02:23 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, do you have HyperV installed? | 02:24 |
| bob_ | lordcirth: that command you gave me before returns: Error: unable to open display | 02:24 |

| Kev__ | this may be a dumb question, but if I power down the laptop and restart with the ubuntu dvd, and click install, will it give me the option to install to the VM and everything work right ? | 02:29 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, no, VMs only exist when the host is running | 02:29 |
| Kev__ | so it looks like I am screwed | 02:30 |
| lordcirth | bob_, I don't see anything wrong. | 02:30 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, search for HyperV in your start menu | 02:30 |
| bob_ | interesting | 02:30 |
| lordcirth | bob_, most likely it's not getting that far so that's the old log | 02:31 |
| bob_ | hmm | 02:31 |
| Kev__ | shows no items named hyper v | 02:31 |
| lordcirth | bob_, try booting with "nomodeset" parameter | 02:31 |
| bob_ | lordcirth: how do I do that? | 02:31 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, Oh, look in BIOS settings to enable virtualization. Many leave it off by default (no idea why) | 02:32 |
| lordcirth | bob_, boot to grub, hold shift to stop the timer. It will tell you to press 'e', I think, to edit the boot entry. Find the Linux kernel line and tack "nomodeset" on the end after "quiet splash" | 02:33 |
| Smn | hello, guys, I have a problem, I'm on ubuntu 16.04 and I installed a wifi pci card, however, I have to enable it manually enable it after each boot using modprobe | 02:33 |

| Kev__ | Shows Intel Virtualization Technology is DISABLED | 02:35 |

| ksft | I was here a few days ago because I was having trouble with my dual graphics card thing. | 02:35 |
| ksft | I upgraded to 16.04. Which drivers should I try first? | 02:36 |
| Smn | Kev__, intel has a lot of different virtualization technologies, have you checked if your cpu supports what you are specifically looking at? | 02:36 |
| lordcirth | Kev__, yeah, enable that if you can | 02:36 |
| Smn | ksft, well, I couldn't help you with gpus, but you should at least say what brand they are | 02:36 |
| Kev__ | I would think it does if I can run a 64 bit win 7 on it | 02:36 |
| bob_ | lordcirth: I've rebooted again. Same thing: I can shell in, but there's no signal to the monitor | 02:37 |
| lordcirth | bob_, do you see BIOS when booting? | 02:37 |
| de453 | hey | 02:37 |
| ksft | Smn: oh, of course | 02:37 |
| ksft | The intergrated one is Intel, and the dedicated one is Nvidia. | 02:38 |

| bob_ | lordcirth: I'm not sure. I was looking away. I'll try again and keep my eyes on the screen this time | 02:38 |
| ksft | Should I install nvidia-current? Should I install bumblebee or nvidia-prime? | 02:38 |
| Azy8BsKXVko | Hello. Is it safe to click "Install" when I get the HWE_EOL popup? I was kind of frightened when the packages being downloaded had "xenial" in the name, because I'd rather not have an error that requires me to reinstall *again*. | 02:38 |
| lordcirth | Azy8BsKXVko, what popup exactly? | 02:39 |
| Smn | ksft, I really haven't kept up, and I don't own an nvidia card, but I think bumblebee is deprecated, let me do some checking | 02:39 |
| Azy8BsKXVko | lordcirth: the Software Updater popup. | 02:39 |
| bob_ | lordcirth: yes, I saw the bios | 02:39 |
| bob_ | now I'm seeing something that looks like an fsck | 02:39 |
| bob_ | '/dev/sdb1:clean...' | 02:39 |
| Smn | ksft, I'd advise you use the integrated tool that checks if any of your hardware requires privative drivers | 02:39 |
| lordcirth | bob_, that's good | 02:40 |
| === mv_ is now known as _Sexologo | ||
| lordcirth | Azy8BsKXVko, what version of ubuntu are you on? | 02:40 |
| Smn | and use those, generally speaking nvidia's closed source drivers are considerably better than the open source alternative | 02:40 |
| ksft | Smn: Which tool is that? | 02:40 |
| Smn | I don't know how it is called in english, but it should be something like "aditional drivers" | 02:40 |
| ksft | the "Additional Drivers" thing in Unity's settings thing? | 02:41 |
| ksft | oh, yeah, oaky | 02:41 |
| ksft | okay* | 02:41 |
| bob_ | lordcirth: I saw a couple of lines that looked like the beginning of the boot process: notifications of processes starting... then the blank screen | 02:41 |
| lordcirth | bob_, ok | 02:41 |
| Azy8BsKXVko | lordcirth: 14.04, and this is the popup: http://imgur.com/a/MMBO1 | 02:41 |
| lordcirth | bob_, this is with or without nomodeset? | 02:41 |
| bob_ | without | 02:41 |
| ksft | Then how do I run programs on the dedicated graphics card? | 02:41 |
| bob_ | like, that's just after I did 'reboot' as root from the shell | 02:41 |
| lordcirth | Azy8BsKXVko, go ahead. It's just warning you that some things you have installed no longer get security updates because you're behind | 02:42 |
| lordcirth | bob_, ok, try with | 02:42 |

| lordcirth | Azy8BsKXVko, no, you have backups, right? :) | 02:44 |
| bob_ | lordcirth: ? | 02:46 |
| Azy8BsKXVko | lordcirth: I don't have anything to back up. ;_; | 02:46 |
| Azy8BsKXVko | It's just annoying to reinstall. | 02:46 |
| ksft | I just rebooted, and I'm getting a login loop again. | 02:56 |

| cfhowlett | no shortage of solutions on google ... | 03:00 |
| ksft | for me? | 03:01 |
| cfhowlett | yep | 03:01 |
| lordcirth | cfhowlett, we've been few some of them already over the last few days | 03:04 |
| ksft | I fixed it by removing all the nvidia packages, but then I couldn't use the graphics card. I wanted to upgrade to 16.04 before spending a lot of time trying to fix it, because I was worried it might come back when I did upgrade. | 03:05 |
| ksft | I backed up important stuff and upgraded. It went mostly smoothly. | 03:05 |
| ksft | Googled it | 03:06 |
| ksft | `apt-get update`, `apt-get upgrade`, `apt-get dist-upgrade`, then restarting X didn't help | 03:06 |

| Bashing-om | evalde: 'free -m' say you have enough ram .. and not pounding swap ( you do have a swap partition ?) ? | 04:29 |
| md_5- | k md_5 | 04:30 |
| evalde | All of that language is a bit above my head. I'm very new to linux shell and linux itself, although I'm more than familiar with the windows equivalent | 04:30 |
| evalde | As far as ram goes, the machine has 2 GB | 04:31 |
| evalde | idk what free m or a pounding swap is though | 04:31 |
| evalde | I do not have a swap partition setup, I haven't partitioned the drive off at all yet beyond what was done in setup | 04:31 |
| CommingHome_ | @evalde why dont you try other distro to check whether its a hardware issue or ubuntu | 04:32 |
| Bashing-om | evalde: Much like Windows' page file / linux uses a swap partition to move stuff out of ram. if it can not or is too small ,, sytem slows down to a crawl . | 04:33 |
| evalde | The only reason I don't want to try another distro immediately is because I just spent a few days getting this setup up to speed | 04:33 |
| CommingHome_ | just give a live cd demo and check | 04:34 |
| evalde | I could setup a bootable USB, I'm currently on vacation so It's gonna be tough for me to get a lot of stuff done hardware wise | 04:35 |
| Bashing-om | evalde: The installer in wizard install mode would have made up an appropriate swap partitioin . Terminal command ' sudo fisk -lu ' to see the partitioning . | 04:35 |
| Ben64 | fisk? | 04:35 |
| cfhowlett | >>> fdisk <<< | 04:35 |
| evalde | is ctrl alt f1 not terminal? | 04:35 |
| Ben64 | usually brings up a console, but you'll probably just want to open something like gnome-terminal | 04:36 |
| Bashing-om | fdisk * / thanks Ben64 | 04:36 |
| evalde | MATE terminal it is | 04:36 |
| evalde | the command isn't working | 04:37 |
| evalde | sudo fisk commmand not found | 04:37 |
| Ben64 | it's fdisk | 04:37 |
| elias_a | :) | 04:38 |
| evalde | lol alright | 04:38 |
| evalde | shit alright let me read through all of this | 04:38 |
| evalde | there's a lot of info here, what am i looking for? | 04:39 |
| Bashing-om | !paste | evalde | 04:39 |

| daemon55 | has anybody here have flickering problems with their battery? | 04:39 |
| evalde | i'm just gonna paste it in a pm if that's ok | 04:40 |
| Ben64 | use a pastebin | 04:40 |
| evalde | not sure what that is | 04:40 |
| Ben64 | like ubottu said to you, http://paste.ubuntu.com | 04:40 |
| BarnabasDK | pastebin.com | 04:40 |
| cfhowlett | daemon55, please do not waste bandwidth with "anybody"? questions. | 04:40 |
| cfhowlett | daemon55, state YOUR specs and details | 04:40 |
| daemon55 | cfhowlett: you mean with the commands? | 04:41 |
| cfhowlett | !details | daemon55, | 04:41 |
| ubottu | daemon55,: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. | 04:41 |
| daemon55 | i am having issues with my battery when i am on it it flickers | 04:42 |
| evalde | omfg | 04:42 |
| evalde | i can't paste the link here because my chromium url bar is glitching out and is flickering black | 04:42 |
| evalde | fml | 04:42 |
| evalde | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23080457/ | 04:43 |
| cfhowlett | daemon55, ? your BATTERY flickers? what? | 04:43 |
| evalde | GOT IT | 04:43 |
| daemon55 | cfhowlett sorry screen my fault! | 04:43 |
| evalde | maybe chromium is just too much for my laptop...but that would be shocking because it could run chrome just fine in windows. | 04:44 |
| evalde | the slowdowns also weren't happening in windows | 04:44 |
| panpan | Hello! I can't ping in or out on my ubuntu 14.04LTS server. My ip tables are fine (apparently) and i use a network firewall | 04:44 |
| cfhowlett | daemon55, got it. If this happens on battery only, I would suggest you start in investigation there. | 04:44 |
| Bashing-om | evalde: Your paste says swap is not a issue . it is there and is 2 Gigs in size . | 04:45 |
| daemon55 | cfhowlett i tried google but so far nothing has come up! | 04:46 |
| evalde | hmm...what else could be causing all of these issues do you think? | 04:46 |
| cfhowlett | daemon55, http://askubuntu.com/questions/69556/how-to-check-battery-status-using-terminal#102863 | 04:47 |
| evalde | Maybe I should mention that issues will be fixed upon restart. maybe "refreshed" is better than "fixed" because they are all bound to happen again. | 04:47 |
| BarnabasDK | evalde, so try firefox. if that solves the issue the problem lies in chromium .. if not. you are that much wiser | 04:50 |
| evalde | Alright, I'll give that a try. The other issues are still up in the air though. | 04:50 |
| dfdghdfghgfhdfhd | hi | 04:54 |
| dfdghdfghgfhdfhd | could someone tell me how to get free bitcoin? | 04:54 |
| dfdghdfghgfhdfhd | my friends told me the ubuntu chat was full of hackers | 04:54 |
| cfhowlett | dfdghdfghgfhdfhd, wrong channel. ask elsewhere. this is ubuntu support | 04:54 |
| cfhowlett | dfdghdfghgfhdfhd, your friends have misinformed you. | 04:54 |
| dfdghdfghgfhdfhd | but they said you ccould hack | 04:54 |
| cfhowlett | dfdghdfghgfhdfhd, go away | 04:54 |
| dfdghdfghgfhdfhd | and give me free bitcoin on from ubuntu | 04:54 |
| dfdghdfghgfhdfhd | they said something about mining | 04:55 |
| anon__ | #kali | 04:55 |
| dfdghdfghgfhdfhd | ok | 04:55 |
| dfdghdfghgfhdfhd | so are you guys true hackers | 04:55 |
| ksft | Do you understand what "hackers" means? | 04:56 |

| viableend | Hallo | 05:01 |
| khklhkljklkjlhlk | Hi | 05:01 |
| cfhowlett | viableend, greetings. ask ubuntu questions | 05:01 |
| khklhkljklkjlhlk | So could someone just donate the money | 05:02 |
| khklhkljklkjlhlk | in bitcoin | 05:02 |
| ksft | Flannel: ^ | 05:02 |
| anon__ | khklhkljklkjlhlk: | 05:02 |
| Flannel | ksft: I'm aware. Thanks. | 05:02 |
| ksft | just in case you weren't paying attention | 05:02 |
| evalde | Flannel is on top of the game | 05:02 |
| cfhowlett | ops are *always* watching. | 05:03 |
| arooni | n fact i dont see any other output options other than speakers... why not? | 05:03 |
| freemoney | i am feeling excluded from the free software community | 05:03 |
| freemoney | i just want free bitcoin | 05:03 |
| ksft | repeating my question from a little while ago: | 05:03 |
| ksft | I have an integrated Intel graphics card and a dedicated Nvidia one. When I have Nvidia drivers installed, I get a login loop. When I uninstall them, I can log in, but I can't use the | 05:03 |
| ksft | Nvidia graphics card. | 05:03 |
| viableend | I hope this is at least slightly on topic, but in your opinion whats the best way to get used to the bash and the command line | 05:04 |
| ksft | whoops, copied my client's line wrap as a newline | 05:04 |
| cfhowlett | viableend, use them often. example: avoid the gui commands for update. use the command line: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade | 05:04 |
| Flannel | viableend: What do you mean by "get used to bash and the command line"? Can you elaborate? | 05:04 |
| ijustreallylikel | how can i help ubuntu's work | 05:05 |
| ksft | ijustreallylikel: you can donate | 05:05 |
| cfhowlett | !contribute | ijustreallylikel | 05:05 |
| ubottu | ijustreallylikel: To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://community.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu | 05:05 |
| Sudolsnano | Donate | 05:05 |
| panpan | Anyone? | 05:05 |
| ijustreallylikel | but you haven't given me my free bitcoin yet | 05:05 |
| viableend | Well scripting for one, I use C++ on a very elementry basis but wrapping my head around real applications on my desktop is just different | 05:05 |
| ijustreallylikel | @freemoney | 05:05 |
| viableend | I understand it could make life easier but im not quite to the point of it making my life easier if that makes more sense | 05:06 |
| Ben64 | ip address is always from a dedicated server ip, must be a bunch of exploited servers, or open proxies | 05:06 |
| ksft | Flannel: Should or have network ops be notified about the spammer? | 05:06 |
| cfhowlett | viableend, it does not | 05:06 |
| ksft | that sentence was not constructed well | 05:06 |
| daemon55 | cfhowlett: the battery seems okay. | 05:06 |
| ksft | Should network ops be or have they been notified* | 05:07 |
| cfhowlett | viableend, never the less; gui is merely the pretty picture. behind the scenes is a command line equivalent. find it and use it and you will quickly learn. | 05:07 |
| Flannel | ksft: No and no. | 05:07 |
| cfhowlett | ksft, let #ops handle it. | 05:07 |
| Ben64 | they're exploited servers, if anyone wants to send a bunch of abuse emails | 05:07 |
| cfhowlett | daemon55, got a replacement battery you can substitute? | 05:08 |
| viableend | Okay thank you very much, sorry for being incoherent, it's late here and I just wanted to use irssi | 05:08 |
| icanchatallday | hi | 05:08 |
| Flannel | viableend: viableend http://quadpoint.org/articles/irssi/ is what you're looking for. | 05:08 |
| viableend | I mean I am using it to chat right now | 05:09 |
| viableend | New to IRC | 05:09 |
| cfhowlett | viableend, do you have any other ubuntu questions? | 05:09 |
| ksft | viableend: Are you asking for help with bash or with Irssi? | 05:09 |
| daemon55 | cfhowlett: i cant its internal. | 05:09 |
| cfhowlett | daemon55, dual booting? | 05:10 |
| daemon55 | cfhowlett:i dont get why it does this on ubuntu it has worked fine on windows | 05:11 |
| jjyynnxx | Hi | 05:12 |
| Sudolsnano | Do you have any suggestions for a vpn supporting 1000/100 bandwith | 05:12 |
| jjyynnxx | Why isn't my graphics card working | 05:12 |
| lotuspsychje | Sudolsnano: perhaps a question for ##networking? | 05:12 |
| Sudolsnano | jjyynnxx: what card are you using | 05:12 |
| jjyynnxx | http://www.bestbuy.com/site/nvidia-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1070-8gb-gddr5-pci-express-3-0-graphics-card/5330700.p?id=bb5330700&skuId=5330700 | 05:13 |
| jjyynnxx | A friend of mine said it's good for bitcoin mining | 05:13 |
| lotuspsychje | jjyynnxx: wich ubuntu version are you on? | 05:14 |
| cfhowlett | lotuspsychje, he's trolling | 05:14 |
| Sudolsnano | lotuspsychje: his a troll | 05:14 |
| jjyynnxx | im not sure | 05:14 |
| jjyynnxx | 14.04 | 05:14 |
| jjyynnxx | lts | 05:14 |
| jjyynnxx | i am not a troll | 05:14 |
| jjyynnxx | i just need help | 05:14 |
| jjyynnxx | with my graphics card | 05:14 |
| Ben64 | confirmed troll | 05:14 |
| cfhowlett | kill it with fire | 05:14 |
| jjyynnxx | @Ben64 why so? | 05:14 |
| ksft | Flannel: come on, this is taking so long | 05:14 |
| Ben64 | because you're the same troll who thinks they're good at trolling | 05:15 |
| ksft | Ben64: don't feed trolls | 05:15 |
| jjyynnxx | i literally just joined this chat | 05:15 |
| jjyynnxx | How am I a troll? | 05:15 |
| jjyynnxx | You can even check the IPs | 05:15 |
| jjyynnxx | This is the first time I've logged in | 05:15 |
| jjyynnxx | Is anyone going to help me | 05:16 |
| jjyynnxx | with my graphics card? | 05:16 |
| lotuspsychje | !patience | jjyynnxx | 05:16 |
| ubottu | jjyynnxx: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 05:16 |
| jjyynnxx | :( | 05:17 |
| jjyynnxx | how would you feel if I switched to fedora? | 05:17 |
| jjyynnxx | Would you be mad? | 05:17 |
| jjyynnxx | That i used their distro over yours? | 05:17 |
| Ben64 | i'd be very happy | 05:17 |
| jjyynnxx | why? | 05:17 |
| cfhowlett | wouldn't care. | 05:18 |
| lotuspsychje | jjyynnxx: please dont use other chat then support in this channel | 05:18 |
| ksft | hah | 05:18 |
| Sudolsnano | id celebrate | 05:18 |
| ksft | "You can even check the IPs" | 05:18 |
| jjyynnxx | what about xubuntu? | 05:18 |
| ksft | jjyynnxx: come on, you should be better than that | 05:18 |
| jjyynnxx | is xubuntu better | 05:18 |
| cfhowlett | ksft, please. stop. | 05:18 |
| netvixtra | jjyynnxx: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia | 05:18 |
| tripelb | use /join #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:18 |
| ksft | If you had just joined, you wouldn't have known that trolls with different IP addresses had been here. | 05:18 |
| jjyynnxx | why? | 05:18 |
| jjyynnxx | I can figured out that there had been a problem | 05:19 |
| jjyynnxx | after you called me a troll | 05:19 |
| jjyynnxx | i know about networking and stuff | 05:19 |
| jjyynnxx | So i said to check the ip logs | 05:19 |
| jjyynnxx | So you could confirm i haven't been on before | 05:19 |
| lotuspsychje | !ot | jjyynnxx | 05:19 |
| ubottu | jjyynnxx: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 05:19 |

| Sudolsnano | which was 1070 because you tought it was good for mining BTC? why are you @ubuntu | 05:21 |
| ksft | other IRC clients: "/ignore jjyynnxx" | 05:21 |
| jjyynnxx | @cfhowlett why are you so mean to me? | 05:21 |
| jjyynnxx | :'( | 05:21 |
| tripelb | Question: i want to install 16.04 on a separate partition and use the already existing /home partition AND NOT ERASE IT. Please advise. | 05:22 |
| Flannel | Ok guys, when you're "ignoring a troll", you need to actually stop responding completely. Even if it's to agree with them that they should go away. | 05:22 |
| lotuspsychje | tripelb: the liveusb can choose to save your existing /home | 05:22 |
| ksft | I tried to do that, but come on | 05:23 |
| guest4345235234 | Is it possible to watch Netflix on Ubuntu? | 05:23 |
| ksft | that was such an obvious mistake | 05:23 |
| cfhowlett | guest4345235234, possible. not easy. | 05:23 |
| guest4345235234 | ok | 05:23 |
| lotuspsychje | !netflix | guest4345235234 | 05:23 |
| ubottu | guest4345235234: If you use Netflix, there is an unofficial solution for using it in Ubuntu detailed in http://www.compholio.com/netflix-desktop/ - bug reports in https://bugs.launchpad.net/netflix-desktop | 05:23 |
| guest4345235234 | how would i get started? | 05:23 |
| ksft | or possibly more trolling | 05:23 |
| ksft | I think I got it to work on Chrome | 05:23 |
| guest4345235234 | my wife needs to borrow my laptop | 05:23 |
| lotuspsychje | guest4345235234: omgubuntu has a recent article about netflix and ubuntu also | 05:24 |
| guest4345235234 | she says she needs to watch erotic films | 05:24 |
| Sudolsnano | guest4345235234: | 05:24 |
| Ben64 | same troll again | 05:24 |
| Sudolsnano | same | 05:24 |
| tripelb | lotuspsychje: please tell me how. i installed once and got a home in the same partition. | 05:24 |
| cfhowlett | yep | 05:24 |
| Sudolsnano | freenodes | 05:24 |
| ksft | guest4345235234: just tested it | 05:24 |
| guest4345235234 | ok | 05:24 |
| Flannel | sigh. | 05:24 |
| ksft | seems to work fine on Chrome | 05:24 |
| guest4345235234 | So she can watch her films | 05:24 |
| guest4345235234 | ? | 05:24 |
| guest4345235234 | I don't want my wife to be mad | 05:24 |
| guest4345235234 | she doesn't know much about linux | 05:25 |
| Flannel | guest4345235234: yes. | 05:25 |
| lotuspsychje | !partioning | tripelb | 05:25 |
| lotuspsychje | !partition | 05:25 |
| ubottu | For help with partitioning a new install see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition | For partitioning programs, see !GParted (recommended) or !PartitionManager. Other partitioning topics include !fstab, !home, and !swap | 05:25 |
| guest4345235234 | @ksft Did you help my friend @freemoney?? | 05:25 |
| ksft | wow that was fast | 05:25 |
| Flannel | Ben64, Sudolsnano: please stop announcing things like that. No one in here is stupid. But you cause problems by egging them on. | 05:26 |
| Flannel | If people are trying to get reactions, the worst thing you can do is react. | 05:26 |
| tripelb | ok lotuspsychje i have partitioned just fine. i have windows, windows backup, 14.04, /home, and 16.04 | 05:27 |
| cfhowlett | as difficult as it is: ignore always works if you actually ignore. | 05:27 |
| fedoraisbetter | I think fedora is a better and nicer community | 05:27 |
| fedoraisbetter | tell me im wrong | 05:27 |
| fedoraisbetter | :P | 05:27 |
| tripelb | I want to make certain I do not erase the present existing /home lotuspsychje | 05:27 |
| bazhang | fedoraisbetter, lets take this chat out of the support channel please | 05:28 |
| lotuspsychje | tripelb: if you choose to save your /home on the liveusb, it wont be erased | 05:28 |
| fedoraisbetter | why | 05:28 |
| Sudolsnano | tripelb: live installation has an option to save an existing /home directory aswell as encrypt it, is your /home on the same partition or how is it setup? | 05:29 |
| bazhang | fedoraisbetter, this is support only, not chit chat, #ubuntu-offtopic for that | 05:30 |
| tripelb | lotuspsychje: when I partition there isnt a "save home" choice. i can designate the partition that has home on it as /home. i am asking here becaise I want KNOWING assurance that it wont be reformatted. | 05:31 |
| fedoraisbetter | ok | 05:31 |
| tripelb | fedoraisbetter: #ubuntu-offtopic is useful. | 05:32 |
| lotuspsychje | tripelb: usually the liveusb setup will leave you few choices, when you read closely it will tell you wich option will save your /home | 05:32 |
| panpan | Does ping/icmp need a port open for a network firewall? | 05:32 |
| tripelb | ok thank you lotuspsychje | 05:33 |
| evalde | I am getting a strange glitch where my wifi is not showing up as being connected yet i still clearly am. | 05:34 |
| lotuspsychje | tripelb: another wise option, is to make a backup before you proceed | 05:34 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: ubuntu version? | 05:36 |
| === marcus is now known as Guest67811 | ||
| evalde | ubuntu MATE | 05:36 |
| hateball | panpan: It needs to allow ICMP, period. There is also #networking | 05:36 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: wich mate version? | 05:37 |
| evalde | 16.04 | 05:37 |
| Sudolsnano | evalde: try sudo stop network-manager | 05:37 |
| === lethu_ is now known as lethu | ||
| evalde | will that end my wifi connection? just curious | 05:37 |
| Sudolsnano | evalde: or remove the nm entirely and reinstall | 05:38 |
| redengin | anyone know how to get pysvn to install under python3? | 05:38 |
| panpan | hateball, I use OVH, and I dont recall being able to allow certain protocols. Let me check once more | 05:38 |
| Sudolsnano | evalde: yes | 05:38 |
| evalde | i wouldn't know how to go about removing the nm | 05:38 |
| evalde | or restarting the mn once i use that command code | 05:38 |
| Ben64 | panpan: ovh doesn't block anything | 05:38 |
| panpan | Ok dokey | 05:39 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: does the wifi icon show? | 05:39 |
| evalde | it shows an empty outline of a "pizza" shape where the wifi bars would be | 05:39 |
| evalde | then when i click on it, no noticed wifi connections are listed, nothing is listed really | 05:39 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: what kind of wifi chipset? | 05:40 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: are you up to date to 16.04.1? | 05:40 |
| evalde | i do not know, it has shown the bars before though. this problem only occurs when i open the laptop back up again after it has gone into sleep mode | 05:40 |
| evalde | i just setup the OS two days ago so I should be | 05:41 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: yeah always keep your system up to date | 05:41 |
| fattyboomboom | hello | 05:41 |
| evalde | definitely, unless it has been updated since then we are good | 05:41 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: can you make sure with lsb_release -a | 05:42 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: there were networking issues when 16.04 came out with wifi icon/network manager | 05:43 |
| evalde | 16.04.1 | 05:43 |
| lotuspsychje | kk | 05:43 |
| evalde | it says 16.04.1 under description but 16.04 under release | 05:43 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: try a network-manager restart like Sudolsnano suggested | 05:43 |
| evalde | how do i restart after ending it | 05:43 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: reboot | 05:44 |
| evalde | i can't do sudo start network-manager? | 05:44 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: sure | 05:44 |

| lotuspsychje | evalde: what kind of wifi chipset are you on? | 05:45 |
| evalde | i do not know | 05:45 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: lshw -C network | 05:46 |
| evalde | stopping network manager brb | 05:46 |
| evalde | sudo stop command not found? | 05:46 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: systemctl | 05:46 |
| evalde | ? | 05:46 |
| evalde | i also ran -C network, what info are you interested in? | 05:47 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: the wchipset of your wifi | 05:48 |
| lotuspsychje | chipset | 05:48 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: broadcom? intel? atheros? | 05:48 |
| evalde | intel | 05:48 |
| Sudolsnano | evalde: try sudo apt-get upgrade network-manager | 05:48 |
| Sudolsnano | evalde: are you running gnome or kde ? | 05:49 |
| evalde | ran that | 05:49 |
| evalde | nothing done | 05:49 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: systemctl restart network-manager | 05:49 |
| evalde | idk about gnome or kde, whatever runs out OOTB with ubuntu MATE | 05:49 |
| evalde | i believe it is a gnome relative though | 05:50 |
| lotuspsychje | !info network-manager | 05:50 |
| ubottu | network-manager (source: network-manager): network management framework (daemon and userspace tools). In component main, is optional. Version 1.2.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.3 (xenial), package size 2069 kB, installed size 10760 kB (Only available for linux-any) | 05:50 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: is this the network-manager version you having? | 05:50 |
| evalde | ok so i just restarted my network manager | 05:50 |
| evalde | and now the network indicator is not in the upper right at all | 05:51 |
| Sudolsnano | start it | 05:51 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: try a reboot perhaps | 05:51 |
| evalde | i started it, nothing | 05:51 |
| evalde | the problem will be fixed upon reboot but it always starts happening again :/ | 05:52 |
| evalde | but in the scheme of things, it isn't that horrible of a problem | 05:52 |
| Sudolsnano | evalde: reboot system if it doesnt appear, i suggest clean reinstall if if doesnt go away, theres something with 16.04, UEFI installation and nm | 05:52 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: apt-cache policy network-manager to compare versions? | 05:52 |
| ImNotQ009 | Hello, I seem to have a problem with the SSH agent on 14.04, when I try to add a key with 'ssh-add' I get the following error: 'Could not open a connection to your authentication agent. ' This is the output I get on 'ssh-agent': http://paste.ubuntu.com/23080529/ Any assistance, please? | 05:52 |
| evalde | i am having another big problem though. My chromium url bar is totally glitched out. it will be fixed upon reboot also but right now it is glitching out and flashing black. no other problems with accessing web pages or anything though, just a very annoying glitch making chromium unusable | 05:54 |
| evalde | @lotuspsychje just checked and the version is up to date | 05:55 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: so your wifi issue only reproducable after lid closed? | 05:55 |
| evalde | yes. after the lid is closed and i have to login again, the wifi issue and the chrome issue happen simultaneously | 05:56 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: chromium acting weird from the first time you installed? | 05:58 |
| evalde | yes | 05:59 |
| evalde | should i reinstall? | 05:59 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: if its glitching from your first setup, something else is a problem | 06:00 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: perhaps try to check your additional drivers? | 06:00 |
| evalde | i just reinstalled it | 06:00 |
| evalde | alright let me check the drivers | 06:01 |
| evalde | i set everything to auto update though | 06:01 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: and leave a tail -f /var/log/syslog open when you tuning stuff | 06:01 |
| evalde | i don't really understand | 06:01 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: perhaps some usefull errors will arise | 06:01 |
| sanfusu | whois sanfusu | 06:01 |
| ImNotQ009 | Figured it out, appears I forgot to do eval $(ssh-agent) | 06:02 |
| evalde | currently searching for additional drivers | 06:02 |
| evalde | the only additional driver listed is | 06:02 |
| tripelb | lotuspsychje: i asked in offtopic and they all warned me not to do it. | 06:02 |
| evalde | Unknown: Unknown | 06:02 |
| lotuspsychje | tripelb: to do what exactly? | 06:03 |
| evalde | using processor microcode firmware for intel CPUs from intel-microcode (proprietary) | 06:04 |
| evalde | should i use that or no? ^ | 06:04 |
| evalde | the other option is "do not use the device" | 06:04 |
| lotuspsychje | evalde: is it active or not? | 06:04 |
| tripelb | lotuspsychje: to use the same /home for two installations. | 06:04 |
| lotuspsychje | tripelb: you came here with the question to save your /home | 06:05 |
| Sudolsnano | tripelb: then backup and install clean, i suggest to partition your drive in 3 sections and have home in own partition | 06:06 |
| lotuspsychje | tripelb: everyone uses another aproach for data..personally i save everything on external storage nothing in /home | 06:07 |

| orangespark | my toshiba external hard disk fell down and now it freezes the lap when i am trying to copy files from it | 06:11 |
| cfhowlett | orangespark, you dropped it? | 06:11 |
| cfhowlett | nothing ubuntu can do to fix a physical hardware issue. if you need that data, strongly suggest you consult a data recovery service. | 06:12 |
| panpan | Hello, So i authorised ICMP on the network firewall, but I still can't ping in or out.. anything else i should try? | 06:12 |
| relyks | has anyone had a problems with wacom drivers in 16.04 | 06:12 |
| relyks | ? | 06:12 |
| Ben64 | panpan: how did you do that | 06:12 |
| relyks | or does anyone know of any issues? I've been having problems ::( | 06:13 |
| orangespark | @cfhowlett yes | 06:13 |
| orangespark | dropped it | 06:13 |
| orangespark | :( | 06:13 |
| cfhowlett | relyks, don't waste time with "... anyone ...". state YOUR details and specs | 06:13 |
| relyks | cfhowlett: alright, that's a good point :D thanks | 06:13 |
| relyks | I'll gather them up | 06:14 |
| panpan | Ben64 - it was a configuration in the firewall option... tbh I never had a refuse on it either way | 06:14 |
| cfhowlett | happy2help! relyks | 06:14 |
| Ben64 | orangespark: might be able to recover some stuff, drive might be dead forever | 06:14 |
| orangespark | drive is working but | 06:14 |
| Ben64 | panpan: what firewall option where | 06:14 |
| orangespark | its detecting | 06:14 |
| orangespark | i think some files have got corrupted | 06:14 |
| cfhowlett | orangespark, until you get a for sure from your data recovery, unplug it and leave it unplugged. if it's heading to failure, your attempts could accelerate the process. | 06:15 |
| relyks | cfhowlett: do you know what ubuntu uses for the wacom drivers? I think it'd be a better bet to just revert to a previous version of the drivers | 06:15 |
| cfhowlett | relyks, best to use the wacom site. wait 1 | 06:15 |
| panpan | Ben64 I can change / rufuse/ allow ports/protocols through the GUI provided to me by the host | 06:15 |
| orangespark | so what should i do | 06:15 |
| Ben64 | orangespark: use ddrescue, rsync, data recovery service, or just use your backups | 06:16 |
| trijntje | orangespark: first unplug the device, then ask again ;) | 06:16 |
| Ben64 | panpan: talk to them then | 06:16 |
| cfhowlett | orangespark, unplug i9t. call data recovery. see what they say. they *should* say "we'll plug it and mirror it and see what's recoverable." | 06:16 |
| relyks | cfhowlett: like official wacom site? I was just about to take a look at linuxwacom | 06:16 |
| cfhowlett | or that ... | 06:16 |
| orangespark | so is there a data recovery center for toshiba | 06:16 |
| orangespark | i dont know what to do | 06:17 |
| trijntje | orangespark: unplug it | 06:17 |
| panpan | Ben64 - oh ok.. but is there other options I can try before doing so? | 06:17 |
| Ben64 | i'd try it myself first, data recovery is EXPENSIVE | 06:17 |
| orangespark | in the box its given 3 years limited warranty | 06:17 |
| orangespark | i have unplugged it | 06:17 |
| orangespark | in fact its at home | 06:17 |
| orangespark | :P | 06:17 |
| cfhowlett | orangespark, ah! so contact Toshiba. "forget" to mention the drop though. | 06:17 |
| Ben64 | panpan: well "GUI provided to me by the host" doesn't sound like anything involving ubuntu | 06:17 |
| orangespark | :D | 06:17 |
| orangespark | ya cfhwolett | 06:18 |
| Ben64 | warranty almost never covers data | 06:18 |
| orangespark | thats okay | 06:18 |
| Ben64 | they'll just send you a blank new drive | 06:18 |
| orangespark | still i want a hard disk | 06:18 |
| orangespark | its 2 TB | 06:18 |
| orangespark | :( | 06:18 |
| orangespark | i cant just loode it | 06:18 |
| orangespark | leave it like that | 06:18 |
| panpan | Ben64 - well I was only seeing if allowing icmp through the firewall would make a difference - Im aware if there are no rules set it is allows it by default | 06:19 |
| trijntje | orangespark: if you don't care about the data there's nothing we can do. | 06:19 |
| Ben64 | panpan: anything in "sudo iptables -L -n" ? | 06:19 |
| trijntje | but I doubt dropping it is covered under your warranty | 06:19 |
| panpan | Ok hold ups | 06:19 |
| orangespark | i do | 06:19 |
| orangespark | its just that if the data is irrrecoverable | 06:20 |
| orangespark | then the second choice is of course and definitively to get a new hard disk | 06:20 |
| orangespark | :D | 06:20 |
| Ben64 | it's probably at least partially recoverable, do that first | 06:20 |
| orangespark | the prob is i am unable to find a toshiba service center nearby | 06:23 |
| orangespark | i bought it through snapdeal | 06:23 |
| orangespark | so should i call snapdeal | 06:23 |
| orangespark | or the dealer who sold me or | 06:23 |
| Ben64 | this is getting way offtopic | 06:23 |
| Ben64 | toshiba.com has the answers | 06:23 |
| orangespark | is there an irc channel for toshiba | 06:24 |
| Ben64 | unlikely | 06:24 |
| cfhowlett | but .. there IS a toshiba website. shocking, I know ... | 06:24 |

| Ben64 | really. toshiba.com | 06:34 |
| EriC^^ | orangespark: tried what? | 06:34 |
| orangespark | toshiba website to apply for data recovery on any other way to repair my hard disk | 06:35 |
| orangespark | i dropped it and now i cant copy files | 06:35 |
| orangespark | copying freezes in between | 06:36 |
| soxa | hey I'm back sudo halt -p did not helped | 06:36 |
| EriC^^ | orangespark: did you try manually mounting it? | 06:36 |
| orangespark | ya | 06:36 |
| orangespark | it mounts | 06:36 |
| EriC^^ | orangespark: did you try running gddrescue a couple times to copy it to another hdd? | 06:38 |
| orangespark | and i can see the files also | 06:40 |
| orangespark | no | 06:40 |
| orangespark | actually the prob is its a 2tb hard disk | 06:40 |
| orangespark | thats the only hard disk i have | 06:41 |
| orangespark | even i have to do gddrescue i will need another hdd | 06:41 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 06:41 |
| EriC^^ | if it's failing though the more you use it the more likely your data will be lost | 06:41 |
| EriC^^ | you should try to ddrescue it asap | 06:42 |
| orangespark | so i was thinking of giving that hard disk to toshiba then | 06:42 |
| Ben64 | if you give it to them, you lose all your data | 06:42 |
| orangespark | what | 06:42 |
| orangespark | chfwolett | 06:42 |
| orangespark | told me that there is a data recovery center | 06:42 |
| Ben64 | please read more carefully | 06:43 |
| orangespark | they recover whatever is recoverable | 06:43 |
| EriC^^ | orangespark: try ddrescue first, data recovery costs a lot of $$ | 06:43 |
| orangespark | ohh | 06:43 |

| stan_man_can | Hi all. Installing Ubuntu for the first time. I have 2 SSD’s, one is 120GB and one is 240GB. I was thinking I would us the 120GB as my boot drive and my 240GB for my home directory. | 07:17 |
| stan_man_can | However, not sure how to set this up in the installer | 07:17 |
| cfhowlett | stan_man_can, during the partition stage, you can manually select targets. set /home on your 240 and / on your 120 | 07:18 |
| EriC^^ | stan_man_can: in the Something else menu, make a ext4 with mountpoint "/" on the first ssd, and in the second ssd make a ext4 partition with mountpoint /home | 07:18 |
| stan_man_can | cfhowlett: are those the only mount points I need? / and home? | 07:18 |
| EriC^^ | stan_man_can: are you using uefi? | 07:18 |
| stan_man_can | previously with fedora I think it was creating a /swap and /boot as well | 07:19 |
| stan_man_can | EriC^^: not sure… how can I find out? | 07:19 |
| cfhowlett | stan_man_can, you might consider adding /swap. /boot might be triggered if you are on uefi. your partitioner will tell you is so. | 07:19 |
| EriC^^ | stan_man_can: are you in the live session right now? | 07:19 |

| researcher123 | I tried to format my pen drive but its failing repeatedly. Here is the error message https://imagebin.ca/v/2sX1QIBy9J1e . Please help | 07:24 |
| soxa | hey somebody can help me I have a lenovo B50 notebook with ubuntu 16.04 and when I try to shut it down it just hangs | 07:24 |
| stan_man_can | Having a hard time deciding if I should be using my 120GB for boot and 240 for home, or the other way around | 07:24 |
| stan_man_can | steam stores games in your home directory yeah? | 07:24 |
| soxa | yes | 07:24 |
| soxa | but you can chose tho' | 07:25 |
| stan_man_can | EriC^^: Weird, this time arround I got a bit of a funky error | 07:25 |
| === mgor_ is now known as mgor | ||
| EriC^^ | stan_man_can: 120gb for boot definitely | 07:26 |
| stan_man_can | THis machiens firmware has started the installer in UEFI mode but it looks like there may be existing operating systems already installed using “BIOS compatibility mode”. If you continue to install Debian in UEFI mode, it might be difficult to reboot the machine into any BIOS-mode operating systems later. If you wish to install in UEFI ode and don’t care a bout keeping the abilit to boot one of the xisting systems, you have the option to forc | 07:26 |
| stan_man_can | that here. If you wish to keep the option to boot an existing operating system, you should choose NOT to force UEFI installation here. | 07:26 |
| stan_man_can | options are “Go Back” or “Continue in UEFI mode" | 07:27 |
| stan_man_can | my guess is continue in uefi mode, but just wanted to verify | 07:27 |
| EriC^^ | stan_man_can: yeah | 07:27 |
| EriC^^ | it probably detected the msdos partition table on the other ssd or something | 07:27 |
| stan_man_can | kk | 07:28 |
| stan_man_can | Alrighty so installation type, erase disk and install ubuntu, or soemthing else? | 07:28 |
| cfhowlett | stan_man_can, something else | 07:28 |
| stan_man_can | cfhowlett: and then I just remove all the existing partitions and create my new ones? | 07:29 |
| === twwwater is now known as tww | ||
| cfhowlett | stan_man_can, indeed | 07:29 |
| stan_man_can | uefi doesn’t look like a mount point? | 07:29 |
| cfhowlett | uefi is not a mount point | 07:29 |
| EriC^^ | you just choose efi partition as type i think | 07:30 |
| stan_man_can | OH | 07:30 |
| stan_man_can | sorry yeah you’re right | 07:30 |
| stan_man_can | so that’s the first one, 500MB primary beginning of this space EFI System partition | 07:30 |
| stan_man_can | how big should /boot be ? | 07:31 |
| EriC^^ | no need for it | 07:31 |
| stan_man_can | oh ok | 07:31 |
| stan_man_can | EriC^^: /swap isn’t even an option | 07:32 |
| EriC^^ | swap is a type too | 07:32 |
| EriC^^ | i think as the filesystem format | 07:33 |
| stan_man_can | i’m on fire today | 07:33 |
| stan_man_can | and that should be primary or logical? | 07:33 |
| EriC^^ | logical is ok | 07:33 |
| stan_man_can | and then / will be logical, ext4, and take up the rest of the space | 07:35 |
| stan_man_can | ?? | 07:35 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 07:35 |
| stan_man_can | and my home directory will be the full size of sdb, primary, ext4 ? | 07:35 |
| EriC^^ | 120gb is huge though | 07:36 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 07:36 |
| EriC^^ | i guess you could still fill it up with your data somehow | 07:36 |
| stan_man_can | i guess so but i already have 240GB for my home directory and I have a 2TB mechanical drive ill be plugging in for storage | 07:36 |
| EriC^^ | the system itself with a bunch of programs installed wouldn't reach 20gb i guess | 07:36 |
| stan_man_can | lol | 07:37 |
| === jatt is now known as Guest8275 | ||
| stan_man_can | dang really? | 07:37 |
| EriC^^ | it's 8-9gb default | 07:37 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 07:37 |
| stan_man_can | oh well i guess | 07:37 |
| stan_man_can | it keeps it nice and separated for me | 07:37 |
| stan_man_can | i tried using LVM in fedora and it ran for a while but i really had no mental understanding of what was going on with my drives which i didn’t like | 07:38 |
| stan_man_can | at least this way i know if a drive dies i know exactly whats going with it | 07:38 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 07:38 |
| === julie_ is now known as Guest3728 | ||

| EriC^^ | you can always make a dir somewhere like /data or something and make a symlink in your home dir to it and put stuff in it | 07:38 |
| stan_man_can | yeah | 07:38 |
| EriC^^ | or backup your /home to it | 07:39 |
| EriC^^ | that way if one ssd fails you're still good | 07:39 |
| stan_man_can | already so i got dev/sda1 efi 499MB (set it to 500, nto sure why it did 499”, i have /dev/sda5 sqap 8192 mb, /dev/sda6 ext4 / 111339mb | 07:39 |
| stan_man_can | then /dev/sdb1 et4 /home | 07:39 |
| stan_man_can | 250058mb | 07:39 |
| stan_man_can | device for boot loader installation: /dev/sda | 07:39 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 07:40 |
| stan_man_can | neat | 07:40 |
| stan_man_can | thanks man that’s a ton of help | 07:40 |
| EriC^^ | no problem | 07:40 |
| Guest3728 | hi just installed Ubuntu mate on a hp pavilion dv6700 but I got no sound | 07:40 |
| stan_man_can | “Encrypt my home folder”, any point? does it slow anything down much? | 07:41 |
| EriC^^ | doesn't really slow anything down, it's up to you | 07:41 |
| stan_man_can | nevermind pretend i didn’t ask, i know that’s a super personal question | 07:41 |
| stan_man_can | personal as in, up to the individual | 07:41 |
| EriC^^ | it does make stuff more complicated though, just a tad | 07:41 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 07:41 |
| Sudolsnano | stan_man_can: i suggest doing so if your plannin on storing files in /home | 07:41 |
| stan_man_can | i opted to encrypt | 07:44 |

| sonicx | hi just installed Ubuntu mate on a hp pavilion dv6700 but I got no sound | 07:47 |
| BitKid | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23080658/ | 07:47 |
| BitKid | so the drivers for the GPU are not found, | 07:48 |
| BitKid | but lsusb wont show anything no matter how long I wait. | 07:48 |
| BitKid | Is there a way to find out why the installation keeps crashing? raw data kind of thing? | 07:49 |

| cfhowlett | Pam_, what is your ubuntu question?? | 07:50 |
| venkat_330 | I want to Access a USB device under Non - Privileged user with FTDI2XX Driver . Under root working as expected but under normal user not able to access the device. Need guidance | 07:50 |
| _l_k_z_m | venkat_330, can you change permissions with chmod on the device? | 07:51 |
| === croppa_ is now known as croppa | ||
| BitKid | can anyone pelase give me a hand with my issue? | 07:52 |
| venkat_330 | _l_k_z_m: I ma not able to find the exact path for the device ,,, I remove existing usbserial driver using rmmod and using ftdi library call to access device. If you could tell me how to find that might might check and update | 07:53 |
| cfhowlett | BitKid, reboot the USB. choose "try ubuntu". then launch the installer. after the crash, logs will be viewable. | 07:53 |
| fireball``` | BitKid, can you boot livedvd or crashing live too | 07:53 |
| _l_k_z_m | venkat_330, is it in /dev? | 07:54 |
| BitKid | crashing on both fireball ,so i can run the gui instaltion now since after install fail I come to a desktop trial enviorment | 07:54 |
| _l_k_z_m | google the filesystem description... i would but my computer is too slow | 07:55 |
| BitKid | or will the result be diffrent cfhowlett? | 07:55 |
| BitKid | if i do the trial version then install vs current condtion | 07:55 |
| venkat_330 | _l_k_z_m: No generally when I plug in it will pop as ttyUSBO.Since i use FTDI i forcefully remove it,, | 07:55 |
| cfhowlett | BitKid, you need to see the logs for anything other than wild guesses. booting the livecd > try ubuntu > installer crash ===> logs | 07:56 |
| _l_k_z_m | venkat_330, odd I have no clue what that is... tty doesn't stand for telitype? | 07:56 |
| BitKid | ok cfhowlett I will come back in the IRC after I reach that point | 07:57 |
| === twwwater is now known as tww | ||

| ImNotQ009 | Well... I kinda accidentally did chmod -R 777 / instead of ./ | 08:02 |
| ImNotQ009 | Now I broke a few things, like sudo | 08:02 |
| ImNotQ009 | What's the best way to fix this without having to do a full reinstall? | 08:03 |
| AndreasCosmo | Sorry for interupting. Hopefully simple question: Is there a way to find the max and min values in a Projection Plot? I'm not a fan of colorbars with only one tick mark so I want to set the range manually. | 08:03 |
| soxa | hey somebody can help me I have a lenovo B50 notebook with ubuntu 16.04 and when I try to shut it down it just hangs | 08:04 |
| AndreasCosmo | ugh.. wrong channel.. sorry guys | 08:04 |
| cfhowlett | ImNotQ009, reinstall. | 08:05 |
| soxa | done still not work | 08:06 |
| cfhowlett | soxa, this is a busy channel. refresh our memory | 08:09 |
| stan_man_can | so I have an nvidia gtx-960, how can i see if the drivers are installed properly? | 08:09 |
| stan_man_can | just opened up mincraft and got 12FPS so I think somethings off | 08:09 |
| cfhowlett | stan_man_can, system > additional drivers should show it I think | 08:10 |
| soxa | cfhowlett: hey somebody can help me I have a lenovo B50 notebook with ubuntu 16.04 and when I try to shut it down it just hangs | 08:10 |
| stan_man_can | cfhowlett: ah, it says it was using x.org x server | 08:11 |
| stan_man_can | i assume i should select using nvidia binary driver ? | 08:11 |
| cfhowlett | stan_man_can, actually you should have an app to switch. see if the dash brings up "nvidia" stuff. | 08:12 |
| stan_man_can | nothing when is search | 08:12 |
| cfhowlett | stan_man_can, could be you did not install then. | 08:12 |
| stan_man_can | probably not; i didnt’ do anything really | 08:13 |
| stan_man_can | just installed ubuntu and updated it; prior to install i selected that “downlaod third party drivers” box but that’s it | 08:14 |
| cfhowlett | stan_man_can, try additional drivers app again | 08:14 |
| cfhowlett | see if it offers alternatives | 08:14 |
| tomreyn | whenever i power up my computer (running xubuntu 16.04), audio goes to the headphones (whether or not they are plugged in). but i need it to go to line out by default. where can i configure this? | 08:15 |
| sonicx | hp dv6700 sound card not working | 08:16 |
| stan_man_can | cfhowlett: within System Settings => Software & Updates -> Additional Drivers | 08:19 |
| cfhowlett | I think so stan_man_can | 08:19 |
| stan_man_can | Under my GPU I had two options, “Using X.Org X Server - Nouveau display driver from xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (open source)” was selected | 08:20 |
| cfhowlett | stan_man_can, or the shortcut: dpkg -l | grep nvidia* | 08:20 |
| stan_man_can | I changed it to “Uusing NVIDIA Binary driver - version 361.42 from nvidia-361 (proprietary, tested)” and it worked | 08:20 |
| cfhowlett | yep | 08:20 |
| stan_man_can | it installed some stuff first, i rebooted, and now the FPS is fixed | 08:20 |
| cfhowlett | :) | 08:20 |
| stan_man_can | thanks :) | 08:20 |
| cfhowlett | congrats! you are now officially an ubuntu guru! spread the word. | 08:21 |

| Shadow_aok | fixing and reinstall it, it's fine, then dpkg-reconfigure -a and it ends with it being broken | 09:31 |
| MacroMan | bazhang, Thanks. I've been reading into that, but I can only seem to find info on holding to a specific version, which gives the same problem when I install a new version. | 09:31 |
| bazhang | MacroMan, why install a new version if you want only the older one | 09:32 |
| MacroMan | I want to install a version that I've repackaged. If I don't hold it, apt will overwrite my installation from the repo | 09:33 |
| bazhang | MacroMan, so you want something akin to a PPA | 09:33 |

| OerHeks | LoLz | 09:37 |
| OerHeks | no packages .. | 09:37 |
| MacroMan | kdjrand, Tip, use the tab key to try autocompleting package names. If you press tab twice you'll get a full list of matching packages. | 09:38 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: any reason you are packaging it? If you simply build and install under the /usr/local prefix, your custom binaries and libraries will be used in preference to the package manager's binaries, as /usr/local/bin comes before /usr/bin in the default $PATH | 09:38 |
| MacroMan | mcphail, This is a new concept to me. Atm I'm using `dpkg --install nginx*.deb` to install it. How can I specify to use /usr/local/bin? | 09:39 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: any reason you are building to a .deb file? | 09:40 |
| MacroMan | mcphail, It's the only route I really know tbh. I learnt by following tutorials. | 09:41 |
| MacroMan | Plus it's very easy. Just calling `dpkg-buildpackage -b` builds new .deb files | 09:42 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: easiest way is to keep any package management out of the equation. Most build systems such as autotools or cmake have options to set the prefix at teh configuration stage | 09:42 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: what method is used to build your package? | 09:42 |
| MacroMan | dpkg-buildpackage -b | 09:42 |
| kLOs | can anyone tell me why with 16.04 service apache2 restart doesn't deliver any notifications anymore on commandline? | 09:43 |
| kLOs | on 14.04 i got an [OK} | 09:43 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: aah - so you're using a debian/ubuntu source tree and tweaking the built components? | 09:43 |
| kLOs | now its nothing even when it fails to reastart | 09:44 |
| MacroMan | So my install goes like so: `apt-get source nginx`, add `--add-module=etc` to debian/rules and then dpkg-buildpackage -b | 09:44 |
| nackas123 | hi ther | 09:44 |
| MacroMan | mcphail, So I'm not building entirely from source | 09:44 |
| MacroMan | I've read stuff about adding my own version number, but I'm not really sure where to start | 09:45 |
| blackline | hi | 09:46 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: the key would be to edit the configuration in debian/rules, I think, to change the prefix (and, if you wanted, the package name) so it wouldn't clash with the ubuntu package. But that seems horribly arcane and fragile | 09:47 |
| MacroMan | Reading this answer seems to indicate I can change the version number with dpkg-dev-el: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/138188/easily-unpack-deb-edit-postinst-and-repack-deb/138190 | 09:48 |

| mcphail | MacroMan: if you are going to go down the pdkg route, your initial plan to use apt holding would b a better idea | 09:51 |
| mcphail | *dpkg | 09:51 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: have you looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto#Introduction_to_Holding_Packages ? | 09:52 |
| MacroMan | mcphail, Yes. tbh it kind of went over my head. | 09:53 |
| MacroMan | I'm just looking at the deb-reversion program which looks interesting: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man1/deb-reversion.1.html | 09:53 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: that is still and attempt to defeat the package manager, rather than working with it...# | 09:56 |
| MacroMan | mcphail, Plus it looks like it'll re-package it again, which seems very wasteful of resources. Thanks for your advice. Think I'll stick with holding the package for now. | 09:57 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: yes - if you work with deb packages you have to prepare to do things the way dpkg or apt want you to work | 09:58 |
| mcphail | MacroMan: good luck | 09:58 |
| MacroMan | mcphail, Thanks. | 09:58 |

| JediMaster | hi guys, I've got a CIFS mount on a server that seems to get disconnected in some way (it's Azure, ugh!) in such a way that if you try and access it in any way (e.g. ls, or even bash autocomplete) that it feezes the terminal, can't ctrl-c etc. | 10:09 |
| JediMaster | Is there any way to check if the connection has frozen without freezing up the command to check it? | 10:09 |
| === twwwater is now known as tww | ||
| JediMaster | I can recover it by "umount -l" then remounting it, and I want to automate this, but doing a simple test to see if a known file exists freezes | 10:10 |
| JediMaster | I guess I could run the file check in the background, get the PID, check after a few seconds if it's still running, and remount it if it is | 10:12 |
| JediMaster | but it's not a very elegant solution =) | 10:12 |
| mcphail | JediMaster: can you use the same "~." trick one uses with dropped/frozen ssh connections to free the terminal? | 10:13 |
| === twwwater is now known as tww | ||
| JediMaster | mcphail, I'm not aware of that one, what ~. trick is that? | 10:21 |
| lopa | hi | 10:21 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, can you give us a better explanation of your issue please | 10:22 |
| mcphail | JediMaster: If you are on an ssh connection which drops, pressing "<Enter>~." can unfreeze the terminal. Does that work when you are accessing your CIFS mount and the connection drops? Don't know if the magic is purely with ssh | 10:22 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, CIFS share gets disconnected in some way, causing any access of the share to freeze, e.g. "ls", I want to be able to test if the share has frozen so I can automate a remount | 10:23 |
| mcphail | JediMaster: having done a bit of googling in the meantime, I suspect there isn't a good workaround for your problem: even the ubuntu documentation comments on the CIFS "black hole" | 10:23 |
| JediMaster | mcphail, that does sound like an ssh trick rather than terminal related | 10:24 |
| JediMaster | mcphail, heh, that doesn't surprise me, I think I may just have to try the backgrounded process idea to check if a file exists, if the process doesn't finish in a timely fashion, kill it off and remount | 10:25 |
| mandla | hi, i long asked for help regarding this error To view this page ensure that Adobe Flash Player version 11.5.0 or greater is installed. | 10:25 |
| mcphail | JediMaster: yes - even the arch users seem to struggle with this one, and they can generally coax _antything_ into submission ;) | 10:25 |
| mandla | how do i get adobe flash player installed on Ubuntu 16.04 | 10:25 |
| mandla | :( | 10:25 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, a workaround would be re-mouting it using "crontab" every X time for example, but that wouldnt "solve" your problem | 10:26 |
| hateball | mandla: use chromium/chrome with the pepperflash | 10:26 |
| JediMaster | mandla, have you tried: https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/net-install-flash.html | 10:26 |
| hateball | mandla: Adobe has dropped Linux support for Flash so the latest npapi (Firefox) version is 11.2 | 10:26 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, Why CIFS? have you tried NFS? | 10:26 |
| OerHeks | mandla, there is no newer 11.2.202.632ubuntu0.16.04.13 | 10:26 |
| OerHeks | goodluck | 10:26 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, there are lots of processes that are dependant on it, so forcibly remounting it every X minutes is going to cause even more problems =/ | 10:28 |

| mandla | Thanks gentleman | 10:29 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, remounting it only take a second, your processes wont die | 10:29 |
| Ben64 | JediMaster: you really need to fix the problem instead of trying to hack around it | 10:29 |
| mandla | Thanks gentlemen | 10:30 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, the problem is Microsoft Azure, that's not within my fixing abilities =) | 10:30 |
| Ben64 | you don't know that | 10:31 |
| bstarek | Ben64, TRUE | 10:31 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, technically I could, by moving away from them, but it's not my choice I'm afraid | 10:31 |
| Ben64 | you don't know that the problem is with azure specifically | 10:31 |
| Ben64 | it could be your end | 10:31 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, it is, it's a known networking problem | 10:32 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, So let me try to understand the situation, you are ssh-ing into a linux vm, which is CIFS connected to azure share? | 10:32 |
| Ben64 | source? | 10:32 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, try to link your azzure share to another VM please | 10:33 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, Microsoft's networking stack, it's caused a lot of other problems, some to do with the hypervisors | 10:33 |
| cuaox | so, anyone can help? | 10:33 |
| cuaox | http://askubuntu.com/questions/812244/games-freezing-after-some-time-on-steam-audio-works-can-move-coursor-around | 10:33 |
| cuaox | with this? | 10:33 |
| Ben64 | JediMaster: sounds like you're making stuff up | 10:33 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, we've got about 30 VMs with them, on different hypervisors, in different DCs, with different OSs, all of them experience the problem and various times | 10:33 |

| JediMaster | bstarek, remote VM, on Azure, connecting to Azure CIFS share | 10:35 |
| Ben64 | sounds like you need to contact azure support then | 10:35 |
| JediMaster | multiple machines, some on Ubuntu, come on (ugh) Centos, different kernel versions, some will work for days without a problem then freeze up until the CIFS share is remounted | 10:35 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, have done, weeks ago | 10:36 |
| JediMaster | they haven't come up with a solution yet, so I need a workaround | 10:36 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, try this http://serverfault.com/questions/622238/linux-cifs-samba-mount-hangs-for-several-minutes | 10:36 |
| Ben64 | stop using them | 10:36 |
| JediMaster | not my choice | 10:36 |
| JediMaster | client has prepaid for a year | 10:36 |
| JediMaster | yeah, I know | 10:36 |
| blackbird1 | neurot, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23081134/ --> $msg become empty just before if [[ $msg =~ ^.*windows.*$ ]] | 10:38 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, that's an interesting find, a sort of keepalive trick | 10:38 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, it looks like your azure share disconnects randomly | 10:39 |
| JediMaster | yeah, it could well be inactivity, but there are certainly machines that aren't actively using it that don't get disconnected after long periods, so not 100% convinced it will work | 10:40 |
| JediMaster | The fact is we're only getting 5-10Mbps of bandwidth to the share, so it really sucks anyhow | 10:40 |
| bstarek | thats very low | 10:41 |
| JediMaster | yeah, especially from an Azure VM to Azure share | 10:41 |
| JediMaster | I have a feeling it's not even in the same country | 10:41 |
| JediMaster | either that or it's seriously over-subscribed | 10:42 |
| JediMaster | or both | 10:42 |
| bstarek | not being in the same country does not bother | 10:42 |
| JediMaster | Azure feels like a beta test to me | 10:42 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, well it reduces the likelyhood of it having multiple 10Gbps pipes to the hypervisors | 10:42 |
| bstarek | personnaly i don't know anyone (except you) on Azure cloud | 10:43 |
| JediMaster | which our own SAN has (4x 10GBps) | 10:43 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, there's a good reason for that =) | 10:43 |
| JediMaster | trouble is, people hear "Microsoft" and go "Oh I've heard of them, lets spend lots there, I'm sure it'll work" | 10:44 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, I feel like they rushed it :) | 10:44 |
| JediMaster | they did | 10:44 |
| Ben64 | well, none of this is Ubuntu support, there is ##azure with 11 people in there if you want to talk about Azure | 10:44 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, I know that Amazon is doing well with its AWS | 10:44 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, I know people happy with their services/uptime | 10:45 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, no, but my original question was, in Ubuntu, how do you check to see if a file mount is responsive without freezing up the check | 10:45 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, look, try to connect your CIFS share to a VM outside Azure | 10:45 |
| Ben64 | JediMaster: and the answer is to fix the problem, not find a hack | 10:45 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, I think we've established there's no easy way to do that, so hack is the only option at the moment | 10:46 |
| bstarek | Ben64, we are all trying to help and investigate my fiend. | 10:46 |
| Ben64 | JediMaster: no, you've already given up | 10:46 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, it's lack of time, it needs a fix now, not a several month investgiation (which will likely happen after so that is is properly fixed) | 10:46 |
| Ben64 | fix now = stop using azure | 10:47 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, as i told you earlier, connect your share to another vm outisde azure | 10:47 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, the project has taken 6 months to set up (not by myself, we've been given it to support), it goes live this week, so hence quick fix required. It's not actually critical to stop things going live, it's just causing minor problems, but don't have the time to move the entire project to another platform (which I have already suggested) | 10:48 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, we may well do, but again, it's pre-paid for a year =/ | 10:48 |
| Ben64 | i think bstarek suggested that as a test | 10:49 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, it is just for test | 10:49 |
| bstarek | Ben64, thanks | 10:49 |
| JediMaster | Ah ok, that's a good idea, at least we can show that it's not the OS doing it | 10:49 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, maybe your VM is the problem, not the share | 10:49 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, we've not completely eliminated that, but given multiple VMs, OSs & Hypervisors and the same problem it's likely that it isn't that | 10:50 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, give logs and report it to azure support | 10:51 |
| JediMaster | yeah, still doesn't get the problem resolved this week though heh | 10:51 |
| bstarek | maybe it will | 10:51 |
| bstarek | what choices do you have? | 10:52 |
| Ben64 | maybe continuing to do nothing will fix it then | 10:52 |
| JediMaster | write a script that will reconnect once every 2-3 days that is falls over | 10:52 |
| JediMaster | that seems like a pretty quick fix | 10:52 |
| JediMaster | s/fix/workaround/ | 10:52 |
| JediMaster | Ben64, I'm not, I've reported the problem and I am actively writing a script to auto reconnect as a temporary workaround, hence the question in the first place =) | 10:53 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, I'll try the keepalive idea and connecting to an external CIFS mount as a test in the meanwhile | 10:54 |

| blackbird1 | Guys I need your help for this : http://paste.ubuntu.com/23081160/ | 10:54 |
| JediMaster | So, on a completely unrelated note, how do you test if a mount is responding without freezing the test/script up? =) | 10:55 |
| blackbird1 | This my problem: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23081162/ | 10:56 |
| geirha | blackbird1: msg probably contains some whitespace, possibly CRs | 10:56 |
| geirha | blackbird1: run the script with -x to see what it is actually comparing | 10:57 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, Just "touch file" and rm file for example | 10:57 |
| geirha | blackbird1: e.g. bash -x yourscript or put ''set -x'' on a line before the part you want to debug | 10:57 |
| MacroMan | Is there an environment variable I can use in a bash script to get the current user? | 10:57 |
| bstarek | MacroMan, w | 10:57 |
| MacroMan | w? | 10:57 |
| bstarek | yes, w | 10:57 |
| JediMaster | bstarek, trouble is that "touch" will freeze up | 10:57 |
| bstarek | LOL | 10:57 |
| MacroMan | Just w? That's easy | 10:58 |
| bstarek | hit "w" in terminal | 10:58 |
| bstarek | MacroMan, yes easy :) | 10:58 |
| MacroMan | ha. Didn't know that one | 10:58 |
| MacroMan | Thanks | 10:58 |
| bstarek | MacroMan, welcome | 10:58 |
| JediMaster | also gives you uptime and load too | 10:58 |
| JediMaster | w is great =) | 10:58 |
| geirha | MacroMan: the USER environment variable also holds your username. printf '%s\n' "$USER" | 10:59 |
| bstarek | geirha, yes would more useful in a script | 11:00 |
| bstarek | geirha, thanks | 11:00 |
| blackbird1 | geirha, for "xyz" the $msg is equal to + msg=$'xyz\r' | 11:02 |
| blackbird1 | I need to remove \r | 11:02 |
| geirha | blackbird1: Right, a CR, so did you read it from a text file generated on windows, perhaps? | 11:03 |
| geirha | blackbird1: anyway, msg=${msg%$'\r'} | 11:03 |
| geirha | removes a trailing CR if there is one | 11:03 |
| blackbird1 | It from irc server response when someone write in the channel | 11:03 |
| JediMaster | Thanks for the help bstarek | 11:04 |
| blackbird1 | geirha, this is the regex: if [[ $holeMatch =~ ^:(.*)!~.*PRIVMSG.*:(.*)$ ]] | 11:04 |
| bstarek | JediMaster, welcome anytime | 11:04 |
| geirha | blackbird1: ok, and you parse that with a while read loop? then putting CR in IFS should do as well | 11:04 |
| blackbird1 | msg=${BASH_REMATCH[2]} | 11:04 |
| geirha | blackbird1: while IFS=$'\r' read -r line; do ...; done | 11:04 |
| MacroMan | geirha, Thanks. That's more helpful in my situation. | 11:05 |

| k1l | mementomori: nautilus /path/to/folder | 11:17 |
| hateball | would be one way | 11:17 |
| k1l | better use alt+f2 for that | 11:17 |

| blackbird1 | geirha, Is it possible with sed ? --> echo $holeMatch | sed 's/[\r|\n]+$//g' | 11:23 |
| blackbird1 | the "\r" or "\n" or "\r\n" is always in the end. | 11:23 |
| geirha | blackbird1: that would be rather overkill. I've shown you two ways to do it with bash; why complicate things with sed? | 11:23 |
| geirha | holeMatch=${holeMatch%$'\r'} though I'd recommned stripping the CRs as you read it in instead | 11:25 |
| speedy__ | hello | 11:27 |
| blackbird1 | Thanks geirha it works, for my knowledge, how to do it with sed ? :) | 11:28 |

| djugashvili | however i can't change the governor to perforamnce | 11:29 |

| geirha | BluesKaj: oh nevermind, I seem to remember it also showing a way with sed. Anyway: sed $'s/\r$//' | 11:52 |
| scottc1 | spartan2276: Controlled by the AllowOverride directive | 11:52 |
| spartan2276 | I already created the .htaccess files within the web app root, however I was reading the apache docs and it says that I have to set AllowOveride which is set to none to allow but it is not working | 11:52 |
| scottc1 | spartan2276: none disables .htaccess files | 11:53 |
| Ben64 | spartan2276: any errors in the apache log? | 11:53 |
| spartan2276 | scottcl right but when I set it to allow apache freaks out | 11:53 |
| scottc1 | spartan2276: use either All or one of the directive types | 11:54 |
| scottc1 | spartan2276: Freaks out how? | 11:54 |

| zetheroo | I am trying to resize an encrypted disk partition in 16.04 - has any one had experience/success with this? | 11:56 |
| lordcirth | zetheroo, have backups first, please | 11:56 |
| zetheroo | lordcirth: I am testing this out on a VM that's just here for this purpose alone ;) | 11:57 |
| lordcirth | zetheroo, I assume by resize you mean expand? | 11:57 |
| zetheroo | lordcirth: either way, but yes, in practice it would be mostly for expanding | 11:57 |
| lordcirth | zetheroo, first you expand the partition, then the LUKS, then the filesystem - basically lower layer first, going up | 11:57 |
| lordcirth | shrinking is the reverse | 11:58 |
| deanoman | going to have someone help me with my 16.04 vm and am trying to work out a way to be able to see what was modified durning the time they are on the server. Google came back with numerous find articles but they all seem to be lacking. Im after what was added/modified in all directories in a within a certain time frame is that possible? | 11:58 |
| spartan2276 | scottcl so if you go to this site http://beta.accureports.com you'll get a 400 Bad request error. I'm trying to fix that | 11:58 |
| zetheroo | lordcirth: ok | 11:58 |
| frostschutz | zetheroo, LUKS only needs 'cryptsetup resize' if you manage to resize while LUKS is open. if you reboot in between LUKS just uses whatever the size of the blockdevice is | 11:59 |
| Ben64 | deanoman: kind of. the data isn't 100% reliable though | 11:59 |
| reddsik | >1940 total | 11:59 |
| reddsik | oww | 11:59 |
| lordcirth | deanoman, tripwire or similar security tools can watch for malware or tampering, inotify can show you what files were accessed | 11:59 |
| reddsik | so many n00bs | 11:59 |
| zetheroo | lordcirth: does this look like it would work with 16.04? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ResizeEncryptedPartitions | 11:59 |
| spartan2276 | scottcl so I created a .htaccess file in the root of the web application so that if you don't use https it redirects you to it | 12:00 |
| frostschutz | zetheroo, so when growing LUKS you can just make the partition larger, then resize2fs once you're booted into the system. when shrinking you have to keep in mind that LUKS eats 2MiB for its header, so if you shrink the filesystem to 100G, the partition needs to be 100G+2MiB in size | 12:00 |
| spartan2276 | scottcl however that is an epic fail as it is not working | 12:00 |
| lordcirth | frostschutz, the guide has LUKS resize commands too, it's not automatic | 12:01 |
| hateball | spartan2276: why not use http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/RedirectSSL ? | 12:02 |
| Ben64 | spartan2276: pastebin the htaccess | 12:02 |
| zetheroo | frostschutz: and growing LUKS is done from a LiveCD session? | 12:02 |
| scottc1 | spartan2276: Just out of curiosity - I take it you have access to the Apache config if you are able to change AllowOverride etc. Why are you using .htaccess? | 12:02 |
| spartan2276 | yes | 12:02 |
| scottc1 | spartan2276: However as others have said, could we see your .htaccess please | 12:02 |
| deanoman | lordcirth thanks | 12:03 |
| frostschutz | zetheroo, usually changing partitions is done from a livecd in case you have to move stuff around. if you know what you're doing - you can do it from within the system itself | 12:03 |
| frostschutz | zetheroo, if you can paste some info about your specific situation maybe we can give more specific advice. show your 'sudo parted /dev/disk unit mib print free' / 'sudo lsblk' and tell what you want to resize how | 12:04 |
| spartan2276 | Ben64 http://paste.ubuntu.com/23081366/ | 12:04 |
| zetheroo | frostschutz: and what about the LVM part of the disk setup? I ask because it seems with 16.04 that you cannot encrypt your disk without LVm being selected as well | 12:04 |
| spartan2276 | scottcl http://paste.ubuntu.com/23081366/ | 12:05 |
| spartan2276 | as you guys can see is very straight forward as all I'm looking to do is an overall site redirect | 12:06 |
| frostschutz | zetheroo, then it depends if it's LUKS on LVM, or LVM on LUKS. With LUKS on LVM, that's where cryptsetup resize comes in, if you grow the LV that LUKS is on, and don't want to reboot/reopen the LUKS, use cryptsetup resize to make LUKS realize the LV changed size | 12:08 |
| spartan2276 | scottcl I do have access to the config but I'm not just running apache/php. It is an apache/coldfusion setup so it is a pain in the A | 12:08 |
| frostschutz | zetheroo, with LVM on LUKS, you just ... reboot and pvresize and then lvresize, resize2fs | 12:08 |
| fishCode | spartan2276, what does the https off bit do | 12:09 |
| zetheroo | frostschutz: I don't know which way it's done ... its whatever way Ubuntu does it by default I suppose | 12:09 |
| spartan2276 | scottcl so I rather not mess with it and go the safe route | 12:09 |
| Ben64 | would be easier to do it in the conf like someone linked to earlier | 12:11 |
| spartan2276 | fishCode it checks to see if the user is coming from non https, meaning if the user types http:// it will redirect them to https:// | 12:11 |
| frostschutz | zetheroo, I suppose it's LVM on LUKS. lsblk will show you clearly | 12:11 |
| Ben64 | spartan2276: fairly sure you have a few syntax problems in there | 12:12 |
| Ben64 | your apache log should tell you | 12:12 |
| spartan2276 | Ben64 oh I don't doubt that but I can't even get that file to be called | 12:13 |
| Ben64 | what does the apache log say | 12:13 |
| spartan2276 | Ben64 mixing * ports and non-* ports with a NameVirtualHost address is not supported | 12:15 |
| Ben64 | thats a conf problem, you haven't even gotten to the htaccess yet | 12:15 |
| spartan2276 | Ben64 that is the last entry on my log, which is why I'm saying that I can't even get the .htaccess file going | 12:16 |
| Ben64 | so fix your conf | 12:16 |
| spartan2276 | Ben64 I tried setting the AllowOverride to all within the site virtual host | 12:17 |
| spartan2276 | but no Dice | 12:18 |
| Ben64 | cool. but that doesn't fix the error you pasted | 12:18 |
| spartan2276 | Ben64 yes I know, if I knew how to fix it I would not be asking for help. sometimes the documentation for apache is not very straight forward and the ubuntu docs are very simple just enough to get you started | 12:22 |
| Ben64 | you're too focused on the https thing when you don't even have it working at all | 12:22 |
| Ben64 | what is this apache to be used for? | 12:23 |
| spartan2276 | Ben64 thanks anayways, been up all night trying to fix this issue. For now the site is up only working on https so at least is secure(somewhat). | 12:24 |
| Netek | if during an installation of an app via ssh and disconnection occurs, does the system carry on installing the app? | 12:24 |
| spartan2276 | Ben64 I also just realized that I'm running Apache 2.2 which is said to have bugs with this non-ssl thing | 12:25 |

| davidak | hello. i want to set the io scheduler on a Ubuntu 16.04 server. has that changed with systemd or is it a bug? | 16:25 |
| davidak | cat /sys/block/xvda/queue/scheduler | 16:25 |
| davidak | none | 16:25 |
| akik | davidak: try if you find it with this "find /sys -name scheduler". it obeys elevator= kernel boot parameter | 16:28 |
| Rebelnet | so, I can't get Ubuntu to work. Its giving me problems on my chromebook | 16:30 |
| ksft | Rebelnet: I really doubt anyone can help you without more information. | 16:31 |
| nacc | davidak: seems odd, works fine for me on a real disk | 16:31 |
| Rebelnet | I downloaded Crouton, and sudo sh ~/Downloads/crouton -r xenial -t touch,xfce | 16:31 |
| Rebelnet | it might work now.... i'm installing it right now | 16:31 |
| akik | nacc: i'm missing that /sys/block/sda completely | 16:32 |
| akik | nacc: oh it's there | 16:32 |
| nacc | akik: interesting! | 16:32 |
| nacc | akik: ah ok, i was going to be a bit worried :) | 16:32 |
| akik | nacc: tired eyes :( | 16:32 |
| davidak | akik: i found /sys/devices/vbd-51712/block/xvda/queue/scheduler but it also outputs 'none' | 16:39 |
| nacc | davidak: almost certainly that's a symlink (/sys/block/xvda -> /sys/devices/vbd-51712/block/xvda) | 16:40 |
| nacc | davidak: iirc, 'none' == noop, which is correct for certain classes of devices | 16:41 |
| nacc | davidak: err, ~= noop | 16:42 |
| nacc | davidak: it's probably a nvme devices, is this in a cloud env? | 16:42 |
| davidak | nacc: it's a VM on a XenServer with storage over iSCSI | 16:43 |

| MonkeyDust | what's noop | 16:44 |
| nacc | it's an io scheduler n ame | 16:44 |
| nacc | *name | 16:44 |
| nacc | davidak: i'm guessing (still digging) that one layer or another of that setup is bypassing the io scheduler layer in th ekernel | 16:44 |

| === jamie_ is now known as jamie_1 | ||
| davidak | still same output with elevator=noop boot option | 16:46 |

| genii | davidak: Have you tried grub option of elevator=noop and updating grub? | 16:46 |
| nacc | davidak: which is probably correct, as the actual io scheduling is done in the ost | 16:46 |

| daumie | I just uninstalled thunderbird, want something more exciting | 17:43 |
| rly | daumie: funny, I want boring. | 17:43 |
| rly | Jordan_U: so? | 17:43 |
| sonicx | would anyone like to help me with a sound pm | 17:44 |
| daumie | sonicx: shoot it up | 17:44 |
| rly | Jordan_U: already changing the topic to "hole in every LTS system on the planet"? | 17:44 |
| tgm4883 | rly: are you sure it's not patched? | 17:44 |
| daumie | rly: Thunderbird doesn;t work with my gmail account as it is considered insecure rly | 17:45 |
| tgm4883 | rly: specifically, by this http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-2879-1/ | 17:45 |
| rly | tgm4883: ok, I am not sure, but the version number is older. | 17:45 |
| Jordan_U | rly: It's very common for security fixes to be backported. | 17:45 |
| tgm4883 | rly: the version number means nothing in that case | 17:45 |
| Jordan_U | rly: In fact, there are probably very few core packages which don't contain backported security fixes. | 17:45 |
| rly | Jordan_U: ok, my bad. | 17:45 |
| rly | Jordan_U: sorry for the noise. | 17:46 |
| tgm4883 | rly: if you are truely worried about security, you should be referencing CVE numbers | 17:46 |
| rly | Jordan_U: perhaps it would be useful to automatically reflect this stuff in the version string. | 17:46 |
| rly | tgm4883: there was no reference to the CVE number from the rsync page. | 17:46 |
| tgm4883 | rly: why would that be useful? | 17:46 |
| rly | Jordan_U: I mean when you do --version. | 17:46 |
| rly | tgm4883: because then I wouldn't have been here. | 17:47 |
| tgm4883 | rly: I would suggest you subscribe to http://www.ubuntu.com/usn | 17:47 |
| tgm4883 | rly: how would referencing it in the version even work? | 17:47 |

| Forre | hi, after upgrading 16.04.1 my 2nd ethernet if does not work. It has e100 driver. Debug msg from syslog shows: "systemd-udevd[3200]: Process '/bin/readlink /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules' failed with exit code 1" What to do next ? | 17:48 |
| rly | tgm4883: you would add a newline to the unpatched version output and then follow that by some specified format. | 17:48 |
| baizon | sonicx: change the output device? | 17:48 |
| rly | tgm4883: for example, one URL line with fixed backported issues in this version. | 17:48 |
| sonicx | I tryed | 17:48 |
| rly | tgm4883: that way the question "am I patched" can be answered without contacting a remote server. | 17:49 |
| rly | tgm4883: so, that's a useful feature. | 17:49 |
| Jordan_U | rly: There are far too many patches to include in any reasonable version string. | 17:49 |
| rly | Jordan_U: it's in the output of the --version command. | 17:49 |
| rly | Jordan_U: not really the "version". | 17:50 |
| rly | Jordan_U: so, first line contains the "real" version. | 17:50 |
| rly | Jordan_U: below that some lines (or some XML, or whatever) with meta data. | 17:50 |
| tgm4883 | rly: how about 'apt-get changelog <packagename>' | 17:50 |
| rly | tgm4883: that's also fine. | 17:51 |

| ksft | I have an integrated Intel graphics card and a dedicated Nvidia one. If I install any proprietary nvidia driver packages, I can't log in. | 17:52 |
| ksft | I'm on 16.04. | 17:52 |
| ksft | I would like to be able to both use the dedicated graphics card and log in. | 17:52 |
| Jordan_U | rly: That's simply not scaleable to all of the commands containing --version options in the repositories. A lot of people have spent a lot of time and effort thinking about these things. So while there are definitely improvements to be made 1: I suggest that you spend at least a day researching how such things are currently handled, and why, before making a new proposal. 2: I suggest that if you do make | 17:53 |
| Jordan_U | a proposal, you propose something concrete rather than "some specified format", and 3: You should not be making such proposals here, as this is the wrong forum for such discussion. A bug report / feature request would be a proper place (again, after following part 1 and formulating part 2). | 17:53 |
| Smashcat | ksft: Sounds like you have the video connected to the wrong port | 17:53 |
| ksft | I can't disable the integrated one with the BIOS, and I don't think I can switch graphics cards with the open source drivers. | 17:54 |
| compdoc | if my system doesnt have a soundcard, is there a way to provide one virtually? | 17:54 |
| ksft | Smashcat: I doubt it; it's a laptop. | 17:54 |
| souravbadami | How much data will be consumed to upgrade ubuntu 14.04 to ubuntu 16.04 ? | 17:54 |
| Smashcat | ksft: Ah, ok | 17:54 |
| souravbadami | And, Is it safe to directly upgrade from the prompt which appears on ubuntu 14.04 for updates ? | 17:55 |
| Smashcat | ksft: Boot into text mode? Does that appear? | 17:55 |
| ksft | Smashcat: yes | 17:55 |
| rly | souravbadami: it says that before you go through with the upgrade. The number is between 0.5GB and 10GB in almost all cases. | 17:55 |
| ksft | I'm currently using a GUI with no proprietary nvidia driver packages installed | 17:55 |
| ksft | I can use a tty when I do have them installed, but I can't log in with the GUI. | 17:55 |
| rly | souravbadami: my system broke when I upgraded. | 17:56 |
| rly | souravbadami: but then again that always happens on my systems and I can always fix it. | 17:56 |
| Smashcat | ksft: But you can log in using text mode, then start the gui? | 17:56 |
| rly | souravbadami: most people do a reinstall to avoid such issues. | 17:56 |
| rly | well, some. | 17:56 |
| ksft | Smashcat: What do you mean by "log in using text mode"? | 17:56 |
| ksft | like use a tty? | 17:56 |
| ksft | I can do that. | 17:57 |
| ksft | `service lightdm restart` doesn't help | 17:57 |
| Smashcat | ksft: Yeah, boot into the command line (no gui) then launch the GUI after logging in | 17:57 |
| souravbadami | rly: Hmm | 17:57 |
| rly | souravbadami: I have much more installed than most people. | 17:57 |
| ksft | Smashcat: There is a GUI. I just can't log in. | 17:57 |
| rly | souravbadami: so, I hit all the issues, because they are also in universe. | 17:57 |
| ksft | If I try to, the screen flashes, and it asks me to log in again. | 17:57 |
| rly | So, they are "supported by the community", which means it is not at all supported in practice :) | 17:58 |
| Smashcat | When you get to the desktop, in video settings, does it think there are 2 displays attached? | 17:58 |
| souravbadami | rly: I'll give it a try. | 17:58 |
| Smashcat | ksft: Ah, so you actually get the GUI login prompt? | 17:58 |
| ksft | Smashcat: you mean now without the drivers? | 17:58 |
| ksft | Smashcat: yes | 17:58 |
| tgm4883 | souravbadami: FWIW, I upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 and didn't have any issues | 17:58 |
| csmule | What's the order of precedence when setting ulimit? Do the options set in /etc/security/limits.conf take precedence over running ulimit on the command line before starting your process? I also see an issue where a process is started as root and run as another user, ulimits get lost. | 17:59 |
| ksft | Smashcat: It currently says there's only one display, which is correct. | 17:59 |
| souravbadami | rly: What do you say ? Do I get anything out of box if I get to 16.04 or shall I stick with 14.04 | 17:59 |
| ksft | not sure if that question was for me | 17:59 |
| rly | souravbadami: I don't know what you mean. | 17:59 |
| Smashcat | ksft: So the drivers work - you'll need to check in the logs to see why it cannot launch the desktop properly after the login manager | 17:59 |
| souravbadami | rly: Anything specific in 16.04 which is not there in 14.04 | 17:59 |
| ksft | Smashcat: /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 17:59 |
| rly | souravbadami: you have two options: (switch distro completely or upgrade ) before 2017. | 18:00 |
| Smashcat | ksft: Yeah, it must be crashing for some reason, which would throw you back to the login | 18:00 |
| ksft | Smashcat: I don't know what I'm looking for in it, but I can install a driver, reboot, try to log in, and show you the logs if you want. | 18:00 |
| rly | souravbadami: or reinstall Ubuntu 16.04. | 18:00 |
| akik | ksft: check out ~/.xsession-errors too | 18:00 |
| Smashcat | ksft: I can't really go through the logs, at work at the moment :) | 18:00 |
| rly | souravbadami: if you don't have any technical skills, find someone who does if you try to upgrade. | 18:01 |
| rly | souravbadami: a reinstallation requires less skills. | 18:01 |

| homsar | Bashing-om, also, its software RAID. Will dmraid still work? | 18:14 |
| Bashing-om | homsar: I always went with the liveUSB .. never had a thought otherwise . so not tested if doable from the install . | 18:14 |
| Bashing-om | homsar: Hang on a sec or so .. ny notes " dmraid is currently unmaintained and might break with new linux versions. Using mdadm is highly recommended. " checking . | 18:16 |
| homsar | Bashing-om, huh thanks for the tip. I'll look into mdadm and removing metadata. But if I remove the metadata, will I be able to boot from the drive or will it wipe the drive? | 18:17 |

| homsar | Bashing-om, This whole thing is much more dangerous than I imagined (the fear of data loss is ever present). I might just install windows on a separate drive. Thanks for all the help though! | 18:33 |

| tomreyn | j/k | 18:36 |
| homsar | Bashing-om, is what I'm trying to do possible with a smart backup scheme? I know very little about backing up an entire ubuntu drive, especially one that is raided and in 3 partitions. Would it just be easier to install windows on a new drive? | 18:42 |
| Bashing-om | homsar: The quickest is yes install Windows on it's own drive ./ Backing up data is a very personal thing . Remember that all system files are on the install, there is no need to back them up . I only backup my personal data and I keep a changelog of all changes I make to the system. | 18:45 |
| Seveas | tomreyn: that's just one of his hobbies :) | 18:45 |
| Seveas | Bashing-om: I tend to back up /home and /etc, that tends to do the trick | 18:46 |
| Seveas | unless I manually hack bugs out of files in /usr/lib/python* and forget I did so :) | 18:46 |

| hhee | hey | 18:48 |
| === Charlotte is now known as Guest13254 | ||
| homsar | We were also thinking of removing one disk from RAID rather than just remove RAID entirely, so we would have a degenerate RAID with one disk and we can install windows on the newly freed disk | 18:49 |
| Seveas | homsar: just back up only the real filesystems (rsync -avx per filesystem) and don't try to back up /sys, /proc, /dev and the like | 18:49 |

| ruptwelve | Hey guys! Is there anyone who can assist with initctl ? | 19:25 |
| ruptwelve | I am having issues with it, well, I am actually trying to figure something out | 19:25 |
| tomreyn | ruptwelve: i won't be able to help (got to run), but if you hope that anyone else will, you should explain what you are tryin got figure out, and trying to do, and what the issue seems to be | 19:26 |
| ruptwelve | Thanks tomreyn | 19:27 |
| ruptwelve | I am just wondering if I can get exit codes from the script stanza ? | 19:27 |
| ruptwelve | for example - my apache fails to start due to some issue with the httpd.conf - but when running it via initctl start httpd | 19:27 |
| ruptwelve | it shows it as "started" | 19:27 |
| ruptwelve | but it actually is not | 19:27 |
| ruptwelve | is there a way I can get a $? out of the script stanza? | 19:28 |
| michaelrose | can't you just start apache? | 19:30 |
| ruptwelve | Well I can, but the system we have is basically triggering initctl that starts apache | 19:30 |
| ruptwelve | No systemd | 19:31 |
| ruptwelve | and no init | 19:31 |
| ruptwelve | an init script basically runs initctl | 19:31 |
| michaelrose | I meant to see what was wrong | 19:31 |
| ruptwelve | Well I perfectly know what is wrong - I made the mistake myself | 19:32 |
| ruptwelve | but I want to be sure, that future users | 19:32 |
| ruptwelve | can actually see if apache fails to start | 19:32 |
| ruptwelve | Because just from the service httpd start (initctl start httpd) everything seems fine | 19:32 |
| ruptwelve | And for some reason even though apache fails, intictl has an exit code of 0 | 19:32 |
| michaelrose | are you running an old version of ubuntu? | 19:33 |
| ruptwelve | Its actually Amazon Linux under Elastic Beanstalk - but it is using initctl (which is an Ubuntu thing) | 19:34 |
| akik | initctl is an upstart thing. still supported because it's in 14.04 | 19:35 |
| ruptwelve | Yeah - right | 19:35 |
| michaelrose | ah | 19:35 |
| ruptwelve | but upstart is not usually found on Centos Based distros | 19:35 |
| ruptwelve | So I am just wondering | 19:35 |
| ruptwelve | how can I get an exit status | 19:36 |
| ruptwelve | from the script part :) | 19:36 |
| ruptwelve | I tried numerous things - but nothing seems to work | 19:36 |
| michaelrose | are you using a centos based distro? | 19:36 |
| ruptwelve | Yes | 19:36 |
| ruptwelve | Amazon Linux | 19:37 |
| michaelrose | is this brokenness where a service fails to start but doesn't report this normal behavior for amazon linux? | 19:38 |
| === djugashvili is now known as wsky | ||
| ruptwelve | It seems to be broken with Elastic Beanstalk (an AWS service) | 19:38 |
| ruptwelve | that is, if you are using Elastic beanstalk with PHP (apache) it seems to use upstart to start apache | 19:39 |
| ruptwelve | instead of just standard init.d | 19:39 |
| ruptwelve | well - actually init.d starts an upstart script | 19:39 |
| ruptwelve | Its a bit complicated | 19:39 |
| michaelrose | I'm guessing you would look at the service file for apache | 19:39 |
| michaelrose | and unscrewup that first | 19:40 |
| ruptwelve | That is actually the problem | 19:40 |
| ruptwelve | the service file /etc/init/httpd.conf | 19:40 |
| ruptwelve | There I have a problem in handling errors | 19:40 |
| ruptwelve | that is, when upstart tries to start that service | 19:41 |
| CrashTestDummy | Hello. I just got a new laptop. I cannot get the wifi card or bluetooth to be recognized. The soundcard is also not recognized. Can someone help me ? | 19:41 |
| CrashTestDummy | What is the usual p[rocedure for this ? | 19:41 |
| ruptwelve | even if the service fails, upstart exits with a code of 0 | 19:41 |
| akik | ruptwelve: /etc/init is for upstart configs | 19:41 |
| ruptwelve | even if I state exit 1 | 19:41 |
| ruptwelve | it exits | 19:41 |
| ruptwelve | akik: correct | 19:41 |
| ruptwelve | and that is what I am trying to troubleshoot | 19:41 |
| ruptwelve | to get some better handling there | 19:42 |
| ksft | I'm on Ubuntu 16.06, and I have an integrated Intel graphics card and a dedicated Nvidia one. If I install proprietary Nvidia drivers, I get a login loop the next time X starts. | 19:42 |
| akik | ruptwelve: you can create your own functionality in those scripts to do checks | 19:42 |
| michaelrose | isn't there a separation between the service file and configuration file for the service? | 19:42 |
| ksft | Without them, I can log in normally, but I can't use the Nvidia graphics card. | 19:42 |
| ruptwelve | I can make a pre-start script that will check the configuration of apache | 19:42 |
| ruptwelve | which is fine | 19:42 |
| ruptwelve | but that covers only onet hing | 19:42 |
| michaelrose | I would think the service file would be /etc/init.d/whatever | 19:42 |
| ruptwelve | michaelrose: you are correct | 19:42 |
| ruptwelve | and the service file basically runs initctl httpd service | 19:43 |
| ruptwelve | sorry | 19:43 |
| ruptwelve | initctl start httpd | 19:43 |
| ruptwelve | and then responds based on the exit code | 19:43 |
| akik | ruptwelve: there's also post-start | 19:43 |
| ruptwelve | but the exit code is alway 0 no matter if the service starts or not | 19:43 |
| ruptwelve | correct | 19:43 |
| ruptwelve | but - post-start works ONLY if the service starts | 19:44 |
| michaelrose | it should be possible to look at the status and determine whether the service started | 19:44 |
| ruptwelve | if there is an issue with the service start the script ends | 19:44 |
| ruptwelve | all upstart configs run as /bin/sh -e | 19:44 |
| ruptwelve | that means as soon as there is an error the script ends | 19:44 |
| ruptwelve | so no further commands are performed | 19:44 |
| akik | ruptwelve: how about modifying the "script" part to add the check after the binary is started | 19:45 |
| akik | ohh | 19:45 |
| michaelrose | or just wrap the script in your own script | 19:45 |
| ruptwelve | akik: I was thinking of that but if you put something like: | 19:45 |
| michaelrose | any changes to an init script would be overwritten on update | 19:46 |
| ruptwelve | this is part of the scrip /usr/sbin/httpd -someparameters | 19:46 |
| michaelrose | whereas your own script that initiates the service then checks then does something not only will not be overwritten but will additionally be able to do something much smarter on failure | 19:46 |
| ruptwelve | and if that fails - the initclt just stops running additional commands and shows the job as running | 19:47 |
| ruptwelve | michaelrose: That is a good idea | 19:47 |
| ruptwelve | I will try some script wrapper | 19:47 |
| ruptwelve | but the problem is initctl cannot give any output | 19:47 |
| ruptwelve | maybe I can grep fax | [h]ttpd | 19:47 |
| ruptwelve | and see if the process runs | 19:47 |

| Hawrombay | what would be the command syntax to remotely run a command on a server and display the output without actually connecting via ssh | 20:55 |

| riqj | hello everyone, the wifi network symbol on my upper pane disappears very often when my display resumes from sleep. how can I fix this? | 20:58 |
| Seveas | Hawrombay: how else would you run a command remotel without connecting to that remote? | 20:58 |
| jatt | connect via telnet | 20:58 |
| _adb | Hawrombay: do you really need to avoid an ssh connection or are you trying to run a single command without spawning an interactive shell? ssh can take a command argument: ssh myremoteserver 'hostname', for example, will run the hostname command on the remote machine and show the output to stdout | 20:58 |
| Seveas | jatt: the 90's called and want their insecure crap back :) | 20:58 |
| lordcirth | Hawrombay, if you run ssh with a command as an argument, it does that | 20:58 |
| jatt | 😸 | 20:58 |
| Hawrombay | thank you _adb | 20:59 |
| Hawrombay | and thank you lordcirth | 20:59 |
| Seveas | riqj: is nm-applet killed or does NetworkManager itself stop? | 20:59 |
| Seveas | _adb, lordcirth: both of those still connect via ssh... | 21:00 |
| lordcirth | Seveas, yes, they do, but that's what he wanted. He just didn't want a shell | 21:00 |
| _adb | Seveas: hence the question i asked... seems a case where the problem isn't the ssh, it's running commands remotely without requiring an interactive shell to do it | 21:00 |
| Seveas | lordcirth: that's not what he asked, he asked how to avoid connecting via ssh... | 21:01 |
| Hawrombay | improper phrasing, I apologize | 21:01 |
| Seveas | Hawrombay: well, just be glad we have two people who could read your mind. Still magic to me :) | 21:01 |
| _adb | Hawrombay: if you do pass commands as arguments to ssh, be careful with quoting and escaping characters. the string will be interpreted both locally and remotely | 21:01 |
| Seveas | and remotely it'll be passed to sh -c, so quoting can go even more wonky. | 21:02 |

| riqj | and in the former case, not even network manager restart can sometimes help | 21:04 |

| riqj | but sometimes, as in second case when a bizarre single network is displayed, I cant bring back the actual list of networks no matter what. so I need to restart the pc | 21:06 |
| Seveas | riqj: 3 solutions for 3 different situations. Not seeing your own network: sudo iwlist scan. icon gone but network works: nm-applet network all kinds of wonky: killall nm-applet, start nm-applet, restart network-manager | 21:06 |
| _adb | what would cause an ubuntu 14.04 machine (server install + packages to add a desktop environment) to join network (wired dhcp) no problem on boot, but then lose network connectivity 5-10 minutes later? consistently comes back (for a few minutes) after a reboot | 21:07 |
| riqj | Seveas, are each of these terminal commands as you wrote them? | 21:07 |
| Seveas | riqj: the applet and networkmanager itself can get out of sync in weird ways. I sometimes have to restart both after coming out of sleep. Got better with 16.04, but still happens. | 21:07 |
| riqj | Seveas, ironically, in my case, these began to occur with 16.04. | 21:08 |
| Seveas | riqj: the commands would be: sudo iwlist scan / killall nm-applet / nm-applet / sudo service network-manager restart | 21:08 |
| riqj | thank you very much Seveas, I will try these commands next time I have the problem | 21:09 |

| lordcirth | amnix, it's fine to keep using it, just make sure to make frequent, tested backups and keep an eye on it. Or if it's still in warranty replace the drive. | 21:44 |

| w0jrl | Term1nal: To help you, we need more information. What kind of credentials do you have saved? What is not working the way you expect? | 22:22 |
| Term1nal | w0jrl: thanks for the reply. The credentials are to a Windows network share. In 14.04, I was able to have my credentials stored "forever" given the option on log-in. | 22:24 |
| Vady | Does anyone know how to do you make composer update everything? | 22:24 |
| Term1nal | It's a frequently accessed data store, and having to login again every day is cumbersome. The option simply seems to be ignored. | 22:25 |
| lordcirth | Vady, like what? | 22:25 |
| Vady | the libraries? | 22:26 |
| Term1nal | Similarly, I have a what I think is related issue with the application Konversation (my IRC client of choice) when connecting to networks that have self-signed certificates. I am unable to set a certificate exception for future sessions, The options "This Session Only" and "Forever" are effectively useless. | 22:26 |
| Term1nal | It may be unrelated to the first issue, but both of these issues occured when switching from 14.04 to 16.04. | 22:26 |
| Term1nal | It was a fresh installation as well, and not an upgrade. | 22:27 |
| Term1nal | ( back in april ) | 22:27 |

| danst | how do I prevent i915_bpo from loading? Adding "blacklist i915_bpo" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf doesn't help | 22:30 |
| w0jrl | Term1nal: I also have to log into my shares everytime I want to access them. However, I have guest access enabled, so it's a little easier for me. Let me try to use an authorized account and see what happens. | 22:30 |
| lordcirth | danst, perhaps it is being loaded in initramfs | 22:30 |
| danst | lordcirth: I have updated initramfs | 22:31 |
| danst | lordcirth: maybe there's some initramfs-modules-special-place to put a blacklist string on | 22:31 |
| Term1nal | w0jrl, my credentials aren't changing daily, so I should be able to access my windows shares by rembembering the credentials in Nautilus. the option proves effectively useless between ubuntu login sessions. | 22:31 |
| Term1nal | The "remmeber until logout" does seem to work when unmounting the share and remounting it again while in the same ubuntu login session. | 22:32 |
| Term1nal | But "forever" does not function as expected. | 22:32 |
| lordcirth | danst, if you do "lsmod | grep i915_bpo", are there any modules depending on it? | 22:32 |
| w0jrl | Term1nal: Checking... | 22:32 |
| prometx | exit | 22:32 |
| _adb | except for security patches what are some good reasons to upgrade a working server (12.04 in this case) to a newer version of ubuntu? it works now, and there are fears that any changes will break it | 22:32 |
| danst | lordcirth: probably should disable intel_ips also, thanks for pointing that out | 22:33 |
| Term1nal | _adb: incremental kernel changes that improve performance, I'd imagine. | 22:33 |
| lordcirth | danst, yes, if anything depends on it, you need to blacklist them too | 22:33 |
| Term1nal | _adb: I'd also say that the repos on 12.04 are -rather- stale at this point. | 22:33 |
| Term1nal | and growing nearer and nearer to the 5year cutoff of security patches. | 22:34 |
| Term1nal | as for "changes that will break it" it depends on the services you're running. | 22:34 |
| _adb | Term1nal: performance hasn't been an issue in the past, and workload isn't increasing. the fear of change is more human than technical in this case | 22:35 |
| Term1nal | 4+ years is a long time for services, could be major breaking changes in configurations/etc. | 22:35 |
| Term1nal | as well, not sure if systemd was on 12.04, can't remember. | 22:36 |
| Term1nal | not sure if that is a big deal or not. | 22:36 |
| _adb | systemd wasn't introduced until 15; not in lts until 16 | 22:36 |
| Term1nal | My suggestion would be to migrate to a fresh 16.04 and re-configure your services to match. | 22:36 |
| Term1nal | What do you run on said server? | 22:37 |
| w0jrl | Term1nal: Saved creds work for me. You might want to file a bug against Nautilus. | 22:37 |
| Term1nal | w0jrl: as far as I am aware there has been a bug already filed. | 22:37 |
| Term1nal | It's been plaguing me since april. | 22:37 |
| Term1nal | I don't want to nuke it and start over for something so trivial. | 22:38 |
| stepanfichtner | hey | 22:38 |
| _adb | Term1nal: i agree. that's what i have in mind, but i need to bring more compelling arguments than "the newer version is shinier" to my supervisors before they'll sign off on the time. the server does dhcp, some web caching,... nothing too intense | 22:38 |
| Term1nal | my hope is that it's a permission thing or something. | 22:38 |
| w0jrl | Do you have the bug report number? | 22:38 |
| chalcedny | _adb, the security being more up to date is usually enough. everything gets hacked these days and that IS expensive | 22:39 |
| Term1nal | _adb: that might be the good way to sell it "painless migration, since all we're doing is <x> <y>, and we're nearing the end of our lifespan on security backports, better to get on the ball early rather than be behind when the next heartbleed is found." | 22:39 |
| w0jrl | NVM, found it. | 22:39 |
| Term1nal | I ususally find that threatening "the next heartbleed" in terms of upgrades as a good way to get mangers to approve. | 22:41 |
| _adb | chalcedny: Term1nal: thanks for the input. i'll see if that works | 22:41 |
| chalcedny | good luck _adb :) | 22:42 |
| Term1nal | _adb: if they need further convincing, maybe show them the latest "mega vuln" with that TCP exploit that was recently discovered. | 22:45 |

| lordcirth | Sinnerman, hi | 23:17 |
| ksft | I'm not sure if this is a good place to ask this, but I'm trying to learn how to use SSH. I have OpenSSH and a public key. How do I get it to use the key? | 23:17 |
| Sinnerman | How would I go about getting my current box to determine the IP of a second box that connects to my intranet via DHCP so I could use their hostname to ssh into them? Automatically... | 23:18 |
| ksft | everything I can find about this seems to assume you already know such a basic thing | 23:18 |
| _adb | ksft: put your ssh public key in $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys on the remote machine and ensure that this file (and the containing directory) have appropriate permissions set | 23:19 |
| th0r | Sinnerman, if I understand your question, you would add a line to the /etc/hosts file. That would permit you to enter 'ssh hostname' instead of 'ssh ip' | 23:19 |
| wsky | ksft: use ssh-copy-id user@host to install the key on the server | 23:19 |
| ksft | _adb: what are the appropriate permissions? | 23:19 |
| Sinnerman | th0r: It works if it is a static IP. How do I do this with a dynamically allocated IP via DHCP? | 23:20 |
| ksft | wsky: How do I give ssh-copy-id the key? | 23:20 |
| th0r | Sinnerman, only if the other node is handled through dns. If you are talking about local nodes, you would have to run your own dns | 23:20 |
| wsky | ksft: well first you need to generate it with ssh-keygen | 23:20 |
| dowwie | how do I go about raising an issue related to Ubuntu 16.0.4 with regards to the python3.5 that it comes packaged with? | 23:20 |

| wsky | ksft: then just ssh-copyid to the server | 23:21 |
| _adb | ksft: on the remote machine ensure that only the owning user can write to the directory .ssh and to the file authorized_keys in that file. on your local machine, ensure that only you have read permissions of the private key. use ls -l to check what the permissions and ownership are currently, and chmod/chown if necessary to change them | 23:21 |

| ksft | I'm trying to connect to my computer from my phone, just to learn about SSH. | 23:22 |
| Sinnerman | th0r: I know the machine broadcasts its hostname, because if I use fing on my android phone (some kinda network scanner), it correctly detects the hostname. I was wondering if we had a similar functionality on *NIX for this. | 23:22 |
| Sinnerman | And to add this on the fly to /etc/hosts. | 23:22 |
| ksft | Does the key include the "ssh-rsa" part at the beginning? | 23:22 |
| malex_ | hi | 23:22 |
| ksft | the part I should put in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, that is | 23:22 |
| th0r | Sinnerman, as far as I know...for ssh you need the ip. Additionally, I disable dns lookup on my ssh client as it slows things down while it tries to access dns. | 23:22 |
| ksft | er, authorised_keys | 23:23 |
| _adb | ksft: yes, that is your public key. it should be named something like "id_rsa.pub" | 23:23 |
| th0r | Sinnerman, all my nodes on my network run static ip for just that reason. | 23:23 |
| dowwie | OerHeks: are you running 16.04? you should be able to see this issue too | 23:23 |
| ksft | oh, I got it! | 23:23 |
| ksft | I spelled it with an S because I thought I read that somewhere | 23:24 |
| Sinnerman | th0r: I would too, except I have guests at mine, and my wife's devices. I could configure the router to assign static IPs to a couple of the boxes I guess. | 23:24 |
| dowwie | the problem I found in 16.04, Python3.5 default library, can be replicated in one of two ways and is related to the cryptography library | 23:24 |
| th0r | Sinnerman, if you are talking about guests on your local net, you would have to run your own dns to get it to work. Would pose quite an interesting project <smile> | 23:24 |
| _adb | ksft: now i'm curious: is there localization set up so that it's going to look at your quaint spelling of authorized? did you save the key in .ssh/authorized_keys or .ssh/authorised_keys? | 23:24 |
| dowwie | if someone with 16.04 were to try to "pip install --upgrade cryptography" they would see an openssl exception raise | 23:25 |
| Sinnerman | th0r, and I bought a Mac Mini so I didn't have to worry about tinkering with this stuff. | 23:25 |
| === james is now known as Guest9300 | ||
| dowwie | this is the installation page for the cryptrography library: https://cryptography.io/en/latest/installation/ | 23:25 |
| th0r | Sinnerman, if you are limiting to one guest at a time, limit your wifi router to one dhcp address, then you will always know the guest is that address | 23:25 |
| dowwie | the other way to replicate the exception is by creating a new python3.5 virtual environment and trying to pip install cryptography | 23:26 |
| Sinnerman | th0r: I'm looking at the router settings. I think I can assign static IPs based on MAC addresses. | 23:26 |
| promet | trying to update 14.04 to 16.04.1, seems like I need to be at 14.04.4 to do this successfully, but dist-upgrade cannot get me there, any thoughts? | 23:26 |
| th0r | Sinnerman, that was going to be my next suggestion <smile> | 23:26 |
| dowwie | OerHeks: thoughts? | 23:28 |
| Guest9300 | Hey I have a quick question about apt and how it caches entries in /etc/apt/source.list.d. For example, say I installed golang by adding a golang.list and then did apt install golang. This works. Then I uninstall golang and remove the golang.list. In that scenario, I shouldn't be able to apt install golang anymore, right? Or would golang.list be cached somewhere? | 23:28 |
| OerHeks | dowwie, reading ... | 23:28 |
| Keitaro | hey guys do you know if we can upgrade our ubuntu if we got a very old version | 23:29 |
| OerHeks | dowwie, i see a lot of simular problems, related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python3.5/+bug/1574892 | 23:29 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1574892 in python3.5 (Ubuntu Xenial) "IDLE 3.5.1+ runtime error on Options -> Configure IDLE" [Undecided,Fix released] | 23:29 |
| Keitaro | i mean i would like to install ubuntu on my notebook and i have an old live cd | 23:29 |
| Keitaro | instead of burn a new cd because i have no cd rom ^^ | 23:29 |
| _adb | Keitaro: can you install from a usb disk instead of cd drive? | 23:30 |
| bazhang | what version Keitaro | 23:30 |
| Keitaro | old version i have the 10.10 | 23:30 |
| Keitaro | no i don't have usb :/ | 23:31 |
| bazhang | Keitaro, thats long end of life support, so not really doable | 23:31 |
| Keitaro | if i install with 10.10 can i upgrade to the last version after ? | 23:31 |
| Keitaro | ah oki | 23:31 |
| bazhang | get the latest 16.04 | 23:31 |
| OerHeks | 10.10 > 11.04>11.10>12.04 > 14.04 > 16.04 | 23:32 |
| Keitaro | arf i see | 23:32 |
| Keitaro | ah yeah | 23:32 |
| _adb | Keitaro: do you mean that you cannot burn new cds, but you happen to have an old 10.10 disk around, so you're hoping to install that and upgrade to latest? | 23:32 |
| Keitaro | i have 1giga bit usb drive is it enough ? | 23:32 |
| Keitaro | jut found it | 23:32 |
| Keitaro | 1 gb | 23:33 |
| Keitaro | yes _adb i thought about that | 23:33 |
| bazhang | get a two gb one Keitaro | 23:33 |
| Keitaro | no it is only 1 gb | 23:33 |
| Keitaro | don't have more | 23:33 |
| bazhang | yes, purchse one that is larger | 23:34 |
| === test is now known as Guest35350 | ||
| Keitaro | arf | 23:34 |
| dowwie | OerHeks: it may be a related issue but.. I literally just net install the newest ubuntu version today and still got the issue.. and they closed that ticket | 23:35 |
| Keitaro | because if i remember before we can burn a live cd on ubuntu with only a simple cd | 23:35 |
| _adb | Keitaro: the server install is <1gb. that'd fit on your usb stick, but wouldn't give you many things you may expect, like a graphical environment | 23:35 |
| bazhang | Keitaro, the cd sized ones are long gone | 23:35 |
| OerHeks | dowwie, maybe worth to file a new one? | 23:36 |
| OerHeks | !bug | 23:36 |
| ubottu | If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 23:36 |
| dowwie | OerHeks: reading through how to file one .. discouraged me from trying! | 23:36 |
| _adb | Keitaro: lubuntu may be a better option for you than ubuntu server... those isos are <1gb as well | 23:36 |
| Keitaro | _abd is it possible to install with my 1gb usb and after download all other package need from the net ? | 23:36 |
| _adb | Keitaro: yes | 23:37 |
| bazhang | Keitaro, get the mini iso for that | 23:37 |
| Keitaro | oki thx | 23:37 |
| bazhang | !mini | Keitaro | 23:37 |
| ubottu | Keitaro: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 23:37 |
| backbox | hi | 23:37 |
| backbox | i am a sexy cute little girl | 23:37 |
| Keitaro | oki i will do that thx | 23:37 |
| backbox | show me ur boobs | 23:37 |
| Keitaro | before i did that with arch so with ubuntu it won't be so hard | 23:38 |
| bazhang | thats correct Keitaro | 23:38 |
| Langley | Help, sometimes when unplugging/plugging an external monitor to my laptop, the screen(s) goes crazy with rainbow snow or blinking, fan goes to 100% and I can only force shut down. Running Ubuntu MATE 16.04 | 23:39 |
| dowwie | oh my god what a fucking horrible bug reporting process | 23:39 |
| bazhang | nocursing here dowwie | 23:39 |
| Langley | Guess I should file a bug report too? What info do I need to add? | 23:44 |
| OerHeks | if you connect an ext monitor properly, turned off, and FN key on your laptop set to internal monitor, then this should not happen | 23:47 |
| OerHeks | just janking the plug, well .. i am glad it is not broken | 23:48 |
| Langley | It's HDMI, pretty sure it's hot pluggable | 23:48 |
