DilloDroidso why is simple file sharing so difficult in Ubuntu?00:26
DilloDroidMac does it out of the box00:26
BasketCaseAnyone running Xenial with an NFS root yet?  Care to share your kernel command line?00:26
DilloDroidyeah, that ^^ lol00:27
BasketCasenot sure what you were discussing before I popped in but booting from an NFS mount is a bit beyond file sharing00:28
DilloDroidsorry, people have suggested NFS when I talked about file sharing00:29
BasketCaseit can be used for that of course.  in fact it would have to be able to do that before you can try booting from it ;)00:30
BasketCaseI don't even know what OSX uses00:30
DilloDroidno idea myself, but my Linux boxes can see my Mac shares just fine, but not each other00:31
DilloDroidand the Macs can't see the Linux boxes00:31
DilloDroidfrustrating00:31
BasketCaseif you mount one what does the mount command say about it?00:31
DilloDroidThe Macs just show up as shares in Nautilus00:32
DilloDroidclick on them and log in00:32
DilloDroidnp00:32
BasketCasedoes it show what protocol is involved or translate to a local path?00:32
DilloDroidno low-level stuff at all00:33
DilloDroidjust GUI in Nautilus00:33
DilloDroid(in Unity)00:33
DilloDroidright-clicking on the Mac share icon in Nautilus provides no further detail00:34
BasketCaseGoogle seems to indicate that OSX shares are Samba shares so you would want to setup Samba server to emulate what OSX does00:34
Exagone313BasketCase: just use openssh with sftp00:35
Exagone313DilloDroid: *00:35
BasketCaseI would just not use OSX :P00:35
Exagone313I'm sure there is a fuse-based program to mount sftp00:35
DilloDroidI have installed Samba and ssh00:35
DilloDroidto no avail00:35
BasketCasesamba needs some setup00:35
DilloDroidI want nothing to do with the command line00:36
Exagone313command line is not scary00:36
DilloDroidmaking a 'static ip' or whatever?00:36
DilloDroidjust should be unnecessary in Unity00:36
DilloDroidThere should be a File Sharing panel in System Tools00:36
DilloDroidthey need to work on that00:37
DilloDroidmake it as simple as Apple00:37
logicalHi, where can i find the fonts folder ?00:37
mcphailDilloDroid: right-click -> properties -> network share on a folder in Nautilus should work00:38
DilloDroidI've done that00:38
DilloDroidthe problem is that the machines don't see each other, nor can the Macs see them00:38
DilloDroidthey're all connected to the same router00:39
Z750they cant 'see' them via the network gui? or they cant connect even if you enter the ip00:39
DilloDroidit's way before authorizing certain shared folders00:39
BasketCasesamba is the thing that makes it show up00:39
lordcirthlogical, /usr/share/fonts00:39
DilloDroidI've installed Samba00:39
BasketCaseit has to be running00:40
lordcirthAlso /usr/local/share/fonts00:40
DilloDroidI just opened Smb4k00:41
DilloDroidnothing showing up00:41
DilloDroidin the 'network neighborhood00:41
DilloDroid'00:41
BasketCasenever heard of smb4k00:41
Bray90820How would I add a boot flag to ubuntu live USB00:41
DilloDroidAs I said, they really need to add a File Sharing tool in System Tools00:42
DilloDroidanyway, thanks for all your suggestions :)00:42
logicallordcirth ty found it :D00:43
melionothing is installing wtf.00:43
melioi just got a big red circle with a line in it. clicked it. said "there's an update!" so i said ok. deal with it. and it just sits there.00:43
melioonly thing i can think of is there's a lock file from a crash still in the sources dir00:45
Bashing-ommelio: What does the terminal tell you ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' ?00:47
melioit's working00:48
meliobut when i try to do printer drivers, or this update it's locking up as soon as it starts00:48
melioit's acting really strange cause terminal has no issues with apt-get. except i can't install openjre-8-sdk without -f option which seems strange too00:49
Bashing-ommelio: Pastebin the errors , in context with the command(s) .00:49

Bashing-ommelio: Is this a 32 bit system ? or why is " libc6:i386 (>= 2.2.4) but it is not installed " required ?00:57
melioit should be a 64bit system00:58
meliolemme make sure it's highly possible i grabbed the wrong iso/usb00:58

melioBashing-om, yeah curious why an i386 arch package is part of a dependancy for anything00:59
melioi wonder if i can use depends on it00:59
Bashing-ommelio: "something" installed is wanting that 32 bit library . either give it what it wants or remove what is rquiring the dependency .01:00
melioI dono what is.01:01
meliothis is a brand new install01:01
melioonly thing i can think of is my goofy printer driver that never finished installing01:01
Bashing-om!info libgcc1:i38601:03
ubottuPackage libgcc1i386 does not exist in xenial01:03
melio!info libc6:i38601:03
ubottuPackage libc6i386 does not exist in xenial01:03
melioso that might be a problem01:03
nexusguy59melio: I installed the frontend on xenial and one of my hosts on xenial and had no lib problems at all01:04
melioi installed chrome 6401:04
melioumm some base codecs01:04
nexusguy59ahhhhh got ya01:04
Bashing-ommelio: yeah .. ok .. what results ' apt-cache policy libgcc1:i386 ; apt-cache rdepends libgcc1:i386 " . we try and get to the bottom of this .01:04
melioone sec. i'll do them each in line like before01:05

melioapt-cache policy libgcc1:i3801:05
melioN: Unable to locate package libgcc1:i3801:05
Bashing-ommelio: True ^ ya want it as libgcc1:i386 .. gotta have that silly '6' .01:06
=== elspru is now known as greenmonk
meliooh sorry01:06
melioBashing-om, that rdepends statement outputs every i386 program ever made01:09
melioit's a massive list01:09
Bashing-ommelio: well that is scary !01:10
melioi'm going to look in /var/log/apt01:11
melioand look in hisory to see where it pulled it in01:11
meliothis is basicly a 12 hour old install. it can't be too hard to narrow this down01:12
meliolast thing i installed was LSB01:12
melioI thinkt hat's the problem01:13
meliolsb has the dependacy01:13
melioBashing-om, http://pastebin.com/j6yndSxX01:13
meliolsb must be 32bit somehow. but not?01:13
Bashing-ommelio: A look at apt-cache depends libgcc1:i386, scares me too .01:13
meliowe both on 16.04.1?01:14
OerHeksyour update failed with http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/op/stable/debian/dists/lsb3.2/Release.gpg: Signature by key E5220FB7014D0FBDA50DFC2BE5E86C008AA65D56 uses weak digest algorithm (SHA1) ... so fix that first.01:14
meliothis is all about getting my printer to print01:14
meliosad isnt it?01:14
meliolol01:14
melioi feel like a 60 year old man asking his kid to help me install a printer01:15
melio:P01:15
OerHeksyes, as you didn't read the error01:15
cpu_abuserlol01:15
melioI did read it01:15
OerHeksno key, no files.01:15
meliothe whole reason i'm flipping out over it is because the printer install and the update freezes the process01:15
asrothi01:15
asrotis some one there?01:15
melioOerHeks, what do you suggest?01:15
OerHekswhat guide did you follow to add that epson stuff?01:17
melioOerHeks, it's the same driver i ran on 14.0401:18
melioworked perfectly01:18
melioprinted, showed me nice ink levels01:18
meliohad a seperate scanner but it worked too01:18
meliofirst time ever being able to wirlessly print from a linux laptop01:18
meliothen i upgraded to 16.04.1 64bit and I tried to install my printer and now i'm here wondering why it's trying to jam in i386 libs01:19
Bashing-omOerHeks: melio Pardon me but I see " Signature by key E5220FB7014D0FBDA50DFC2BE5E86C008AA65D56 uses weak digest algorithm (SHA1)" as a warning ... not an error ??01:20
OerHeksBashing-om, it is ..01:21
OerHeks6 lines of text avoiding a simple question01:21
Bashing-ommelio: The libgcc1:i386 requirement is of the lsb intall . per the output of the install .01:21
melioI didnt have lsb before. don't really care if it's gone01:22
meliobut now sudo apt-get remove lsb doesnt even work01:22
melioOerHeks, i'm not frustrated, but resolving that issue is impossible using the add printer interface, it locks up trying to install it01:23

brassbonanzaLast night I was on here trying to ge thelp on a new build of 16.x and we effectively came to the conclusion I should just buy a wlan dongle - so I did this today found a guide online for installation BEFORE I went and bought it; came home with it and now I a m stuck01:33
brassbonanzaI followed this guide http://www.humans-enabled.com/2016/03/how-to-ubuntu-1604-gnu-linux-netgear.html01:33
brassbonanzaand I can get to the last command "sudo modprobe 8812au01:33
brassbonanzauntil I get the modprobe error: ERROR: could not insert 8812au: required key not available01:33

meliobrassbonanza, it's a usb wireless adaptor?01:37
brassbonanzamelio correct01:37
meliobrassbonanza, does it show up on lsusb while plugged in?01:38
brassbonanzayes01:38
meliodid you disable your inoperable wifi controller?01:38
brassbonanzalet me go check01:40
Bashing-ommelio: Maybe, give the system what it wants is the easier way out here ?01:41
brassbonanzaunder addition drivers presumably right?01:41
melioBashing-om, breaking linux is fun! :)01:41
brassbonanzaAlright I just switched to not sure the proprietary software if that was what you meant?01:42
meliobrassbonanza, i have no idea what you did :P01:43
meliobrassbonanza, i assume, you are disabling the wifi adaptor on your computer with a external switch if you can01:43
brassbonanzaexternal switch functionality died when I shot windows in the back of the head01:43
meliothen trying to get the computer to recognize the power of dongle01:43
meliobrassbonanza, i hope that dongle is compatable with linux01:44
Bashing-ommelio: Yeah .. we do get to keep the pieces .. - I broke my system enough times that I have learned not to do that .01:44
meliosome of them are really cheesy01:44
nexusguy59In my case however one of my hosts does not like the keys or my keys on the front end are crap not sure which01:44
melioBashing-om, so how do you suggest i install this dependacy01:44
brassbonanzaThis is why I found a guide on how to install it beforehand01:44
brassbonanzahttp://www.humans-enabled.com/2016/03/how-to-ubuntu-1604-gnu-linux-netgear.html01:44
brassbonanzaThat is the guide I followed01:45
Bashing-ommelio: I think ' sudo apt install libc6:i386 ' . See what the system responds with .01:45
brassbonanzaalright let me give it a shot01:45
melioi tried that Bashing-om01:45
nexusguy59{Clapping hands/Jumping up and Down} rooting for brassbonanza for shooting windows in the noggin01:46
Bashing-ommelio: And what did the package manager say when libc6:i386 install attempted ?01:46
melioBashing-om, that errors the same way01:46
brassbonanzanexcusguy59 it was long overdue01:46
melioactualy a little differnt01:46
brassbonanzaexcept I don't have wireless access now01:47
brassbonanza):01:47
nexusguy59Agreed brassbonanza, I did it about 5 years ago01:47
meliohttp://pastebin.com/30Uh5JAJ01:47
nexusguy59I am all Open Source now, if it can be done it gets done better with Linux01:47
RexyHas anyone ever run into an issue of getting 2 lock screens? I've asked this in here a few times but I've found no fix so far01:48
nexusguy59You can partner, I have a probook hp probook 6470N i5 quad with 8 gb of ram and put ubuntu 16.04 picked my wireless right up01:48
brassbonanza@melio: I go into the folder which i gitcloned and it has several files with the tag 8812.au (what modprobe says it cannot insert) and they are '8812au.ko', '.8812au.ko.cmd', '8812.au.mod.c' '88812au.mod.o' on and on and on01:49
brassbonanzanexusguy59: That would've been ideal - but alas I am now on a dongle as on here last night we decided that my internal wlan controller was shit and probably wouldn't come back to life01:49
Bashing-ommelio: Try again " 33 not fully installed:" ....  ' sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.23-0ubuntu3_i386.deb ; sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' see now what the package manager screams and hollers about .01:50
nexusguy59lol brassbonanza well I am not sure what you have but there has to be a way there always is01:51
brassbonanzanexusguy59 I found the 'way' and it breaks because 'modprobe' can't insert '8812au' because the 'required key is not available'01:51
RexyOne lock works fine, the other doesn't lock to my user. It's the LightDM lock screen and shows the user as "Light Display Manager" rather than my user01:52

hal9k_Hi guys. I'm really new to linux, but have a simple question you maybe can help me with. I have at touchscreen and i would like to have an indicator at the panel enabling/disabling touchscreen. I found out i can do it in bash by typing xinput disable or enable the ID. And I found out that you can add an indicator which launchs a command.04:09
zodiac19hal9k $ sudo apt-get update04:11
zodiac19$ sudo apt-get install touchpad-indicator04:11
zodiac19actually use this first: $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:atareao/atareao04:12
hal9k_@zodiac19 its not for touchpad but for screen04:12
hal9k_I need some kind of simple bash command if disabled:enable if enabled:disable04:13
zodiac19sudo apt-get install dconf-editor04:13
zodiac19try that, my bad04:13
hal9k_I already god dconf-editor. I know the command to disable and enable, but not knowing bash scripting04:15
hal9k_tbh04:15
zodiac19also check your system settings, if you have a tablet option you may want to explore it04:15
hal9k_Well its just my notebook, fucking annoying with touchscreen. Are you familiar with bash scripting?04:16
zodiac19I am not familiar with bash, I'm rather new as well, however I am really good on google04:17

tioxI have found myseelf in an interesting situation; I have a friend I would like to show Ubuntu to, but my system was installed on a machine that uses BIOS only, and my friend's machine uses UEFI, though I could disable secure boot to work around that.06:31
tioxIf I didn't want to force BIOS on my friend's machine, what should I do to make my present install compatible with both UEFI and BIOS?06:31
alkisgtiox: do you mean to transfer your hard disk there, or some usb stick or cd?06:32
tioxI mean, to make my Ubuntu installation UEFI-capable.06:32
nipnoris this place better support than something like reddit?06:33
alkisgtiox: normally you would use the ubuntu live cd, which is uefi-capable, to boot his machine06:33
hateballnipnor: Try asking your question and find out06:33
alkisgtiox: why is *your* setup related to that?06:33
tioxIf I cannot do that without breaking  support or being destructive to my system install, I would be happy with using a USB drive with an UEFI-capable bootloader to chain-boot into a BIOS system.06:33
nipnorokey... is windows 8 better than ubuntu?06:34
tioxwithout breaking BIOS support*06:34
alkisgtiox: what I don't understand is, you have 2 machines with 2 different disks, right? So you need 2 installations. Why are you speaking of 1 installation only? Do you plan to transfer your hard disk to the other machine?06:34
hateballnipnor: This place is for Ubuntu support, not trolling. If you want to chat go to #ubuntu-offtopic06:34
tioxI have two machines and I want to use the same disk on both since it's USB-connected.06:34
alkisgRight, that's the info I was missing06:35
nipnorokay, just joshing, i apologize06:35
tioxAlso, no, Ubuntu si not better than Windows 8 if Ubuntu cannot support your software needs.06:35
tioxis not better*06:35
tioxA common misconception is that Linux is better always; Linux has its own set of issues, Ubuntu is no exception.06:36
nipnorthat is a software developers problem for not supporting ubuntu06:36
nipnorits nothing to do with ubuntu...06:36
tioxIt's everything to do with Ubuntu for the user.06:36
nipnori know lol06:36
alkisgtiox: you can make your external disk uefi-capable, this wiki page has a section on how to enable uefi after installing to plain mbr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI#Converting_Ubuntu_into_UEFI_or_Legacy_mode06:36
jim_wanggood idea.06:37
tioxThough I do not believe this is the proper venue to go in-depth about user perceptions and differences between each system.06:37
tioxThe short of it is; Ultimately, people may not be interested in Ubuntu if you cannot prove it is equally capable of the same things Windows is. Since some software is exclusive to Windows for various reasons, a user may not be convinced Ubuntu is better, and thus worth the trouble.06:38
tioxThus not worth the trouble, rather. Yeah it's software developer's fault, but they gotta make that sweet, sweet monies and some can only do it on Windows, due to market share.06:39
gambl0rehow can i free up some space on my ubuntu06:40
gambl0relike tmp files etc..06:40
tioxgambl0re: Depends on what's taking your disk space.06:41
alkisggambl0re: `sudo apt-get clean` is one, and if `ls /boot/vmlinuz*` shows a lot of files, you can also purge the old kernel packages06:41
tioxI would start with removing downloaded files you'll never, ever have a use for again, or are confident will be available years from now.06:41
tioxAnd yes, those commands to remove temp files dpkg / apt grabs.06:41
gambl0rei checked my downloaded folder and its empty06:41
gambl0retrash is empty also06:42
tioxJust note if reinstalling a piece of software, apt or dpkg wil need to fetch those files again, ths cluttering your machine with package dependencies once again.06:42
jarnosDownloading does not work from download.ubuntu.ocm06:42
jarnosDownloading does not work from download.ubuntu.com06:42
tioxIs there smething similar to windirstat for Ubuntu?06:42
jarnosDownloading does not work from archive.ubuntu.com06:42
xanguatiox: what is windirstat?06:43
tioxNevermind, there is an alternative for Linux; Baobab.06:43
tioxIs baobab still provided by default these days or are users forced to install it?06:43
hateballgambl0re: "sudo apt-get autoremove" will remove old/unneeded packages like old kernels06:44
xangua!search baobab06:44
ubottuFound: diskfree06:44
tiox(baobab should appear as "Disk usage Analizer" in your application menu.)06:44
tioxDisk Usage Analyzer*06:44
gambl0rei ran sudo apt-get clean and it freed up only about 100mb06:46
gambl0rei only have 700mb of free space06:46
tioxgambl0re: If you don't see it, do "sudo apt-get install baobab" then after, press Alt + F2 and type in "baobab" or search "Disk usage Analyzer"06:46
gambl0reim running disk space analyzer right now06:46
tioxk06:46
gambl0reits doing its thing at the moment06:46
tioxWherever it says most of your space is being taken, see what files there can be removed.06:47
tioxOr, if it's a bunch of system stuff, I would suggest upgrading what media you have Ubuntu on.06:47
Bashing-omgambl0re: ' dpkg -l | grep linux- ' many old kernels listed ?06:47
gambl0reim also running ubuntu inside a vm06:47
tioxBut that depends on what files are there, and I don't wish to be at fault for you rm'ing the wrong stuff.06:48
gambl0reanalyzer is finished running06:48
gambl0rewhat info would like to know06:48
tioxSome screen captiires would be nice; I believe Alt + Print Screen captures the current window, do that in baobab, save somewhere and upload.06:49
tioxscreen captures*06:49
tiox(Also it has been an age since I used baobab.)06:50
gambl0rei just sent like 600mb to the trash but now when im trying to empty the trash its been trying to prepare for a while now06:55
gambl0reis this normal06:55
gambl0rehoow long does it take to prepare to empty the trash06:58
gambl0reive been waiting for over 2mins now06:58
hateballgambl0re: if it's a lot of small files it can take a while, but minutes is a bit long07:00

gzooQ: I need some help configuring my monitor for 2560x1440 with my NVIDIA graphics card. I get a max of 2560x1080 available. On Windows 7 I had to create a custom resolution from the NVIDIA panel, but no such option on the Linux menu.07:10
gzooI realize I have to fiddle around with xorg.conf, but I need some help with that as it's been a while since I handled it07:11
gzooI did all kinds of `cvt 2560 1440 60`, and added the modeline somewhere in xorg.conf, but I think something decided to delete the customizations for me07:11
hateballgzoo: have you tried using nvidia-settings ?07:13
hateballoh, I see now07:13

WACOMaltHi07:47
Keitaroanyone know what is the difference and how to know if a version of ubuntu is an international version ?07:47
salamiWACOMalt in general, yes, but it can still fail catastrophically07:48
WACOMaltEeee07:48
WACOMaltSo basically, don't do it in production07:48
Keitaroi ask that because people says that only the international version can boot in efi07:48
salamiWACOMalt well you should have a solid backup plan in production anyway?07:48
WACOMaltWell, "in production" here mean super small scale personal server07:49
akikKeitaro: no it's the same iso version for everybody07:49
WACOMaltJust runs znc and few web servers with zpanel07:49
Keitaroakik,  oki because with my version i can start ubuntu in efi07:50
salamiWACOMalt then I'd just go for it if I were you...07:50
Keitaroafter i take test ubuntu without install it load i see the differents led under the ubuntu name and after it blocks07:51
WACOMaltIn this case, fail catastrophically though means what exactly, need physical access to the machine to fix it?07:51
WACOMaltIt's off in a datacenter somewhere07:51
salamiWACOMalt I once had one with a broken bootloader, so yeah07:51
uebera||WACOMalt: "catastrophically" implies that you need to be able to boot the machine using a rescue image.07:51
WACOMaltThough i do have ILO access07:52

bazhangits a pdf unnamed_08:58
blackflowsohail-ahmed: it's not dns problem but ipv6 problem, force your client to use ipv4 connections08:59
blackflowor find out why ipv6 doesn't work08:59
sohail-ahmedso my client is not configured to use ipv6 adrresses??08:59
Rarrikinssohail-ahmed: No, your client is configured to use IPv6, and IPv6 doesn't work.09:00
blackflowI don't know what the problem is, but "network unreachable" suggest that the ipv6 address is unreachable, and you have to find out why.09:00
Rarrikinssohail-ahmed: You need to use IPv4.09:00
sohail-ahmedcan you please tell the google term to search??09:01
Rarrikinssohail-ahmed: Force irssi to use IPv409:01
sohail-ahmedthank you every body for your time and effort ... I really appreciate09:02
blackflowsohail-ahmed: it's not that simple. just use ipv4, but if you want to figure out why ipv6 doesn't work, first you start by checking AAAA records of chat.freenode.net, then you ping6 each to see if basic ipv6 networking works, and if doesn't check if your local ipv6 is correctly configured, or try mtr.09:02

blackflowin a world where ipv4 is depleted and we're struggling to push over to ipv6, I find advice to just use ipv4 appalling. Rather, find out why ipv6 doesn't work and fix that.09:04

Seveasblackflow: and in a less purist world we just use what works. if ipv6 doesn't work, then don't use it.09:05
viktor133Dro, yes, but always back-up anyway09:05
Drook09:06
blackflowSeveas: I'd agree with you, but in this case we need to solve that chicken-egg problem with ipv6, and going the route of less resistance ain't gonna help :)09:06
Seveasgrimel: you can look in /var/log/dpkg.log09:06
Seveasblackflow: I'm 100% meh on ipv6. ipv4 isn't depleted by a long shot, all you'll see now is that people will start selling unused ipv4 blocks at a big premium.09:07
unnamed_how do i become a l33t hax0r i just wana be er33t09:07
Seveasunnamed_: repeatedly hit alt+f4 untill you feel l33t.09:08

Seveassalami: only in italy09:10
blackflowSeveas: while this is not theh channel for this discussion, you know what I meant :) exactly that it's sold out to companies who can now skyrocket the prices, is what "depletion" means in this case.09:10
Seveasat least, I haven't heard of any other countries where carrier grade nat is so popular09:11
blackflowand APNIC already has ipv6 only connections because there it _literally_ is depleted.09:11
RarrikinsWanderer-: Are you automounting it or manually mounting it?09:11
SeveasWanderer-: NTFS doesn't understand unix permissions, they are emulated as mount options.09:11
Wanderer-Im automounting it, i removed the nosuid option if that matters09:12
Seveasblackflow: apnic has no connections, it just sells ip space. For asian companies, their only option now is to buy ip space on the free market instead of from apnic.09:12
Wanderer-Well the reason i need to do it is because some of my torrents cannot resume their state on deluge, because the files are owned by root, running deluge as root doesnt solve the issue09:12

k1lKeitaro: then try it again to use nomodeset10:31
viktor133jianu81, you mean without installing it onto the harddrive?10:32

kniHi, running 16.04 here with 16GB ram. My system tends to use swap space even when there is still free memory available (according to free/htop etc). Any idea what might cause this? i tend to blame VMware workstation12:26
hateballkni: you can try adjusting vm.swappiness12:26
blackflowkni: how much swap? some of it is normal, even if you have plenty of free ram12:26
SwedeMikekni: that's normal behaviour. If there is memory that hasn't been used for a very long time, it might get swapped out to instead use it for block cache.12:26
SCollinskni: Whats its typical RAM usage?12:27
knihateball: i did already set it for tests to 10 and later 112:27
statusfailedikonia: you're probably not interested, but it turns out logins/logouts are stored as different lines in utmp format, if you find a login, you have to search ahead for the corresponding logout12:27
statusfailedthat's how "last" works12:27
slystoneHi!12:28

slystoneI want to make a script print in the Ubuntu panel.12:28
blackflowkni: changing swappiness will not page in already paged out stuff. did you reboot between tests?12:28
slystonehttp://www.webupd8.org/2011/05/how-to-display-network-upload-download.html ← I've found this ppa.12:28
kniblackflow: i dis- and reanbled swap while playing with swapiness to make it work12:28
blackflowkni: also, do you have transient, short-lived processes that consume much more RAM than you think watching htop between those runs?12:29
slystoneIt does the job, but maybe this function is already included in Ubuntu 16.04. What do you think?12:29
kniblackflow: hard to answer, my main usage is having 2 vm's running and 2 browsers on the host itself - plus some terminals12:29
SwedeMikekni: that's a lot, but it depends on the applications you're running.12:30
SwedeMikekni: if some memory isn't used by anything, it might get swapped out.12:30
kniSwedeMike: a lot applications or a lot swap? ;)12:31
hateballslystone: I dont run Unity myself but it seems there should be an applet for something so simple12:31
SwedeMikekni: having 2G swapped out is a lot, especially after 6 hours. But it all depends on what you're running on the machine. It's not unheard of.12:31
kniaccording to free i do have >2GB available ram right now, but only 0,2 GB free - still 2GB is swapped. Just to give you some numbers12:31

blackflowhuh. would VMs be listed there? remind me, there _is_ a process per VM running, correct?12:37
kniyes for each vm12:38
knii am somehow completly unsure so far what might cause the swapping at all12:38
knibesides that i am for sure running a big footprint in general, but the system isn't that bad either12:39
chl_hey, does anyone know if isc-dhcp reserve a static defined host, if said host's lease has expired?12:40
ikoniathe lease won't matter if it has a satic definition12:40
chl_ikonia: so its discarded from a dynamic range/pool?12:41
blackflowkni: well, some swap usage is a good thing. it becomes a problem if the system starts paging in and out more often12:42
chl_say I have 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.254, and 192.168.0.3 is a static/fixed host, will 192.168.0.3 be discarded from the pool?12:42
blackflowchl_: I don't think so. If you want to mix dynamic and static like that, better define a dynamic-only range for dhcpd12:44
kniblackflow: i do feel lags - or in other words short freezes12:44
kniso this is far beyond good ;)12:44
chl_blackflow: thank you, I was expecting that too12:44
blackflowkni: vmstat will tell you if what si/so (swap in / swap out) is during those laggy times12:45
slystoneAight, got my answer (notify-send).12:45
kniblackflow: so you would recommend running 'watch vmstat' for a while to monitor the output?12:46
blackflowkni: don't need watch with vmstat, just give it a delay, eg.  `vstat 5`12:47
blackflow*vmstat12:47
kniblackflow: i seem not to be that used to vmstat usage - should it report pids?12:47
blackflownope12:47
kniright now i do see a single line with general swap free buff values similar to free12:48
kniand free is again using vmstat if i remember right12:48
blackflowkni: ?12:49
kniisnt free using vmstat in the background to catch its informations?12:50

_KaLiFHi..!13:40
k1lacresearch: there is no reason why it should not be in the trash like every other folder/file you deleted from the desktop. so either you deleted it manually (like holding shift for full delete) or its either on the deskstop still or in the trash13:41
acresearchk1l: i think because i deleted 1060 files and it is one of them13:41
k1lacresearch: then look carefully into the trash13:41
acresearchi searched for it, but it is not there, let me explain what happened13:42
acresearchi tried to download a database into a folder in my desktop using terminal, but i accedently executed the command outside the folder to the MASSIVE amount fo folders in the database got downloaded into the desktop. i deleted them all then realised i have an important work file there. all the foldered have 2 letters except my folder, i searched for it, it is not there13:43
acresearchk1l: i searched several time, i restarted my computer and searched again, it is not in the trash13:43
k1lhow did you delete those files from the desktop? with the terminal?13:44
acresearchno with fn backspace,  all these files are in the trash except my file13:44

ctjctjHello.  I'm looking for documentation on how to mount an encrypted filesystem on boot.  Situation: User set up a full disk encrypted ubuntu.  But the drive was slow.  He installed an SSD and we installed 16.04.01 on that SSD.  Now we want to mount the HDD else where and set up some loop back mounts to that HDD.  To mount the HDD we are currently logging in, running cryptsetup luksOpen(???) parmams.  vgchange -yaa; mount14:23
ctjctj/dev/ubuntu-vg/root /local;14:23
ctjctjI would like to automate all of that on boot.14:23
acresearchk1l: how can i use extundelete?14:25
acresearchk1l: in my situation?14:25
k1lextundelete is the really last chance. it tries to find the pieces that are not overwritten already on the filesystem14:26
k1lbut i really suggest you try to search your system for that file14:26
vicatcuRunning sudo dpkg --configure -a in an attempt to recover from interrupted distribution upgrade14:27
ctjctjacresearch have you tried "locate"14:27
acresearchk1l: i don't know hwere else to search14:27
acresearchctjctj: how can i use locate?14:27
k1lacresearch: did you use the search?14:27
ctjctjacresearch, locate partial_file_name14:27
acresearchctjctj: what if it is a directory?14:28
ctjctjIt will tell you14:28
ctjctjI use it all the time so I don't remember if it is installed by default.  Worse case you'll need to do an "update-db" command.14:28
vicatcuStuff is happening at least...14:28
ctjctjcorrection: updatedb14:29
acresearchctjctj: i have locate14:29
vicatcuAssuming I come through this intact, how do I know distribution upgrade succeeded?14:30
acresearchctjctj: there is some development...!!! i might have located one of the files in the directory14:30
acresearchctjctj: k1l let me explain to you what i have found, i found a text file, which is the most important file for me, it is located in /home/acresearch/ownCloud/Analysis (but this directory does not have this file because it is a cloud storage directory and i removed this file from there earlier today and the server was updated).14:33
ctjctjacresearch, go to the web interface for your ownCloud server.  Go to the "undelete" option.14:34
ctjctjOwncloud keeps backups of deleted files until it needs to purge for disk space reasons.  So there is a likely hood that your file is still there.14:35
vicatcuRebooting again after running dpkg -configure -a ...14:35
vicatcuI have unity again!14:36
ctjctjvicatcu, my condolences.14:36
acresearchctjctj: YOU ARE A FREAKING GENIUS !!!! I GOT IT BACK !!!!!!!!!14:36
vicatcuHow do I know if my distribution update is done?14:36

joelioNetek: do a sudo  dpkg-reconfigure locales15:21
Netekjoelio I did15:21
NetekI also did locale-gen15:21
NetekI tried many different things and I dont know why I cannot get rid of this15:21
joelioLC_ALL should be set to c or something15:23
pathhfinderhllo15:23
OerHekssudo locale-gen en_GB en_GB.UTF-8 && sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales15:23
joelioNetek: or potentially just unset, the env var is listed but no value set15:23
logicalhi ppl, is it possible to install calendar from gnome 3 (like fedora) on ubuntu-mate?15:23
Netekjoelio the only thing I didnt try was adding LC_ALL="mt_MT.UTF8"  into /etc/environment and then rebooting15:24
joeliohang on, mine's not15:25
=== Nach0z_ is now known as Nach0z
=== pathhfinder is now known as raju
joeliotry what OerHeks said..15:25
Netekthat is the wrong locale though, it needs to be mt, I try it but change en_GB to mt_MT15:25
joeliooh, sure15:25
joelioI'm not familiar with that locale, just check for it's charset (UTF-8 perhaps?)15:26
=== raju is now known as aak12
Netekyes it is utf-815:26
joeliodoing the reconfigure asks you thoough, which is strange15:26
aak12quit15:27
aak12exit15:27
aak12close15:27
Netekhrrmm ok, I did the command that OerHeks said, I no longer get the cannot set LC_ALL but running locale still shows LANGUAGE=  and LC_ALL=  they are both blank15:29
Netekis this something I should worry about?15:29
mcphailNetek: no15:29
OerHeksNetek, did you run updates ? maybe you get some packages you need15:29
Netekok, OerHeks yes I just did another apt update and apt upgrade15:30
Netekno errors15:30
OerHekswhen i change locales in the gui it asks for updates15:30
OerHeksoke15:30

Netekthis is on a remote server15:30
MacroManHow can I configure init.d to specify certain arguments when starting a daemon?15:31
MacroManSpecifically, exim4 starts with -bd by default, which I'd like to remove.15:31
MacroManCan I literally just edit the exim file under init.d or will that be overwritten?15:32
mcphailNetek: $LANGUAGE is for a list of your primary and secondary preference languages. If you want to use one language for most things and don't worry what language will be used if it is not available, keep it blank. $LC_ALL is used to override the other LC_ variables temporarily15:34
addonis1990anyone is using pidgin here, the chat app? I managed to build it on ubuntu but sounds are not working15:34
Netekmcphail ok, thanks for the explanation.15:34
Piciaddonis1990: why build it yourself? its in the package repositories.15:35
Pici!info pidgin15:36
ubottupidgin (source: pidgin): graphical multi-protocol instant messaging client for X. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:2.10.12-0ubuntu5.1 (xenial), package size 516 kB, installed size 1909 kB15:36
addonis1990Pici, that's what's mentioned on their website15:37
christian95abu_shawaraib_: my friend you still there? I restarted my system... still having screen tearing15:38
Piciaddonis1990: their website says "We do not provide pre-built packages for Linux and Unix distributions. We recommend installing Pidgin using your operating system's standard package management tool."15:39
stochastixIs ubuntu-studio an offshoot of ubuntu just like kubuntu?15:39
stochastixAs in, I can talk about it in here?15:40
addonis1990Pici, you are right ! Should I remove it and reinstall it again to get sounds to work ?15:40
daxstochastix: yes15:40
Piciaddonis1990: I'd give that a shot.15:40
stochastixdax: cool, thanks. Are there repos i can enable to get a newer version of blender?15:41

christian95hi people how to enable tear free? Im using intel integrated gpu in xubuntu 16.04.. I hate screen tearing15:42
OerHeksuniverse, so it is the latest i guess15:42
abu_shawaribchristian95: what is the name of the graphical text editor in xubuntu? leafpad? thunar? sublime?15:42
christian95abu_shawarib_: mousepad15:43
mcphailstochastix: blender is fairly self-contained and doesn't really need "installed". If you want the latest version, just download it and run it from the unpacked tarball. But my recollection is the current Ubuntu version is fairly up to date15:43
stochastixmcphail: Does ubuntu-studio use the same repos as ubuntu?15:44
stochastixIt is basically the same thing with some preinstalled packages right?15:44
liava_Reaver channels only go up to 14?15:44
mcphailstochastix: I think it does, IIRC. Been a while since I used -studio15:44
stochastixim downloadinf it right now. Im asking for a freind who just started using linux.15:44
abu_shawaribchristian95: try: sudo mousepad /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf. or just sudo mousepad15:45
mcphailstochastix: I'm sure there's a page on the u-studio website explaining the (minor) differences. As I recall, there's a tweak or 2 to enable low-latency audio15:45
stochastixmcphail: he said the version in there is 2.6.8 or something, I bet he just needs to do an upgrade after installing ubuntu-studio15:45
christian95abu_shawarib_: still cannot save my friend.. maybe the config file should be created first15:46
stochastixmcphail: yea, realtime kernel is probably one differnce15:46
abu_shawariboh crap15:46
abu_shawaribchristian95: i forgot that the folder don't exist15:46
mcphailstochastix: no - there hasn't been a realtime kernel patch for ages15:47
mcphailstochastix: lowlatency, yes. Realtime - not for a long time15:47
christian95abu_shawarib_: how to create the folder?15:47
Meliocan someone clarify versions for me, I notice 14.04 LTS has multiple versions - Trusty, Xenial, Wily, vivid, Utopic - I know Trust/Xenial are the only supported till 2019 versions - which Trusty is 3.13 kernel, and Xenial is 4.4 kernel - what should i do here. one or the other. newer kernel or older.15:47
OerHeksMelio, both got security patches, 3.x is a LTS kernel15:48
naccMelio: 14.04 LTS is Trusty15:48
abu_shawaribchristian95: see if this folder exsist: sudo mousepad /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf15:48
naccMelio: did you mean the kernel (hwe) stacks?15:48
Melioyes, which kernel, newer or older version15:48
mcphailMelio: use the newer kernel unless it gives you problems15:49
stochastixmcphail: I see now there is a ubuntustudio room too, oops,   :) search didnt show that a min ago.15:49
Meliomcphail, would xenial be the same base as 16.04?15:49
naccMelio: iirc, 14.04 only supports 14.04.5 now15:49
Melionacc, i had a problem with an epson driver in 16.04 using xenial 4.4 kernel15:49
Melioso i wanna roll back to 14.04.x to recover my printer capability15:50
mcphailMelio: you might have the same problem, then15:50
Meliothen stick with trusty?15:50
naccMelio: then you might want the stock 14.04 level15:50
naccMelio: no HWE stack15:50
christian95abu_shawarib_: my friend15:50
Melionacc, is there a network installer for it? is it LTS?15:50
Melioi ran it 14.04.x with updates until it started flipping out on grub and java got jacked up15:50
abu_shawaribchristian95: ?15:51
naccMelio: is there a network installer for what? 14.04.1 would be what you want, iirc15:51

christian95abu_shawarib_: I restarted my system, still having screen tearing15:52
MelioOerHeks, doesnt printer-driver-escpr stll depend on i386 arch stuff?15:52

christian95abu_shawarib_: Hey my friend Im back just restarted my system.. so sorry15:54
Meliomcphail, it's about it being regression it was installed on my old os and worked fine15:56
Meliodeprecated or regression not sure the differnce in those two terms. i'm not a opensource coder15:56

Melioscanner and printer work perfectly (at least so far)16:02
christian95abu_shawarib_: hey my friend16:03
Melioi expect it will be fine. but it's actually printing and scanning better then the proprietary solution16:03
Melioscanner program stock w/ the distribution finds that printer instantly and scans16:03

christian95xubuntu is tearing like hell how to enable tear free in intel gpu please ?16:07
alkisgchristian95: try asking in #xubuntu, they know which window manager they use etc16:08
ActionParsnipchristian95: what is the output of:   lsb_release -c16:08
christian95alksig_: it takes forever for them to reply so I went here16:08
christian95ActionParsnip_: Codename:xenial16:09

christian95ActionParsnip_: When playing videos in vlc and that youtube video ccalled screen teearing test I want to eliminate screen tearing my friend.. I dont want to use compton...16:10
alkisgchristian95: for example, in ubuntu mate, I have tearing with the default marco, but I don't have tearing when I run mate-tweak and enable marco --no-composite. But I've no idea which window manager xubuntu uses, that's why I suggested to ask there...16:11
ActionParsnipchristian95: if you run:   sudo lshw -C display    do you see an Nvidia GPU and an Intel GPU, or just a GPU?16:11

christian95ActionParsnip_: my text editor is mousepad sir\16:14
alkisgNote that if you're trying to edit a file in xorg.conf.d, you'd need to create the dir first16:14
christian95alksig_: how??16:14
alkisgchristian95: in my experience, tearfree didn't help16:15
ActionParsnipchristian95: thats fine too. You may want to make a cheeky symlink to make your life easier16:15
alkisgYou can try it with sudo mousepad /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-tearfree.conf16:15
christian95alksig_: no I ean how do you create the dir? I have tried sudo mkdir... gives me errors16:16
alkisgThe /usr dir I mentioned already exists16:16
christian95alksig tried that too16:16
ActionParsnipchristian95: sudo mkdir /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d; sudo mousepad /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-tearfree.conf        ect etc16:16
alkisgchristian95, ActionParsnip, the directory /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d is surely there, it exists16:17
alkisgMany preinstalled packages provide it16:17
alkisg$ dpkg -S /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/16:17

alkisgBut as I said, it didn't help with metacity and marco. And, compiz on the other hand, doesn't have that issue.16:18
christian95thanks to ActionParsnip and alksig for your support... I will now reboot the computer and see if their help works.. I jhope it does thanks you people in this irc channel16:18
ActionParsnipalkisg: doesnt hurt to try and add it, you'll just get a warning16:19

naccMoppy: that seems like the opposite of what cron is for17:53
zodiac19My first choice at the moment is to increase the Ram. I would hate to have to try and re-learn a new interface on my computers. Though I do have a computer already running lubuntu so I can experiment with that a bit17:53
Moppylogical: it will eventually time out, but you should be able to stop it safely so long as it is just donwloading17:53

BellatorHey folks, I keep having an "internal error" every time I boot up my 14.0417:57
Moppynacc: If I have a lot of tasks and dont them to all run at once, it's easier to add a slightly random modifier to teh start time, than make a billion diffrent cron entries on each machine17:57
naccMoppy: write a simple wrapper script that takes the task to run as input?18:01
Moppynacc: Yea that's kind of what I'm doing. The script sleeps for a random time on startup. I was just looking for a more elegant way.18:02
naccMoppy: i don't think there is any such way in cron itself, as the point of cron is to accurately schedule tasks18:02

_KaLiFHi..!18:27
Moppyzodiac19: For art, gimp and inkscape with both work.18:27
Moppyzodiac19: Lubuntu uses like less than 512MB of ram normally18:27
zodiac19okay, thank you18:28
MetamorphosisYes in theory it runs just on 512mb but beware of the type and number of apps you work with at the same time.18:29
Moppyzodiac19: Oh, you meant "writing programs" as in word processors, and not programming! I see. Libreoffice works and is inlcuded with Lubuntu.18:31

CodFectionwow18:42
Narwhaalbekks: it's not rolling18:43
naccthat's not a "not working" reason, that's a "I don't like it" reason.18:43
bekksNarwhaal: Which is not a valid reason for "does not work". It is just not what you want, which is a big difference.18:43
baizonCodFection: well you can always use the mainline kernel18:43

naccNarwhaal: sorry, you are in a support channel and said "doesn't work". I misinterpreted.18:46
Narwhaalnacc: no problem18:46
naccCodFection: you don't need the latest kernel to write programs.18:46
bekksCodFection: No. When being paranoid, you need the latest and greatest. When you are a programmer, you want a stable system.18:46
baizonCodFection: well then get 16.10 in a month, it will have the latest kernel. LTS sticks with "stable"18:46
bekksbaizon: 16.10 will not have the "latest", too.18:47
Narwhaalok then18:47
CodFectionactually many linux are using 4.6 / 4.7 kernels and they are quite stable.. baizon bekks nacc. dont get me wrong, I prefer ubuntu very much just doubtful about the updates18:47

bekksCodFection: Which does not have ANYTHING to do with a specific kernel version.18:51
Moppybaizon: In a crontab file?18:51

CodFectionok but what about packages? they need to be updated isnt it?18:51
baizonMoppy: no, im just showing you the direction18:51
paranoidabhiany ideas?18:52
baizonCodFection: and they get updated, just not with features18:52
bekksCodFection: They are supported and updated until 2021 - so whats your exact issue at that point?18:52
Moppybaizon: I see, so you're cron doesn't do it out of the box. I understand now.18:53
Moppy+saying18:53
naccthe notion you always want the latest version of everything feels like miseducation to me; if you want it purely to say you are on the 'latest', that's fine -- just admit that and go to a different distribution :)18:53
alkisgThe latest version of everything usually means "spending a couple of hours per day reporting bugs"18:53
MoppyWell, ubuntu had an old version of gthumb for ages because of some gnome compatbility. It's nice to have new apps sometimes.18:53
CodFectionif it was perfect, people wouldn't need other distros bekks18:53
joaquin69http://pastebin.com/ddE0aXDj this is my interface config18:54
CodFectionnacc, I am not.. I am deciding which one to install..18:54

paranoidabhiI have been stuck at it for 3 months. Not found any solutions.18:54
bekksCodFection: So you came here just for getting some reasons for "needing" the latest and greatest, then?18:54
MetamorphosisI'm still on Kubuntu 10.04 and it feels wonderful . you dont need new software. the old is better.18:54
joaquin69and after while, the ip is changed18:54
CodFectionthe only reason thats keeping me from ubuntu is packages updates nacc18:54
bekksCodFection: Then use another distribution. Whats the problem?18:54
Amm0n!latest18:54
ubottuPackages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.18:54
paranoidabhiMetamorphosis, is it stable?18:55
Amm0napt + rolling release -> debian testing18:55
naccCodFection: you're in the wrong channel then -- this is the support channel18:55
zodiac19okay new question, and forgive me if its a bit of an ignorant question. does a docking station make a computer run better or just allow th computer to handle more inputs and outputs?18:55
naccMoppy: right, that's what distributions do for you -- they ensure compatibility18:55
Metamorphosisyeah its great. i use libreoffice on it everyday. i also use Windows xp and thats stable too. but ubuntu 10.04 is better and more polished18:55
alkisgparanoidabhi: does it work fine with e.g. an ubuntu live cd? I.e. is it a problem with the kde stack (phonon etc) specifically?18:56
nacczodiac19: typically it just adds hardware/ports18:56
bekksMetamorphosis: Ubuntu 10.04 isnt supported anymore.18:56
paranoidabhiPlease have a look http://askubuntu.com/questions/816848/burst-of-sound-whenever-audio-starts :/18:56
MetamorphosisI dont need support. the software just works.18:56
CodFectionubottu, thank you very much for clarifying. I hope those 3 could also explain it like this rather than pushing me away from ubuntu. thanks18:56
ubottuCodFection: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)18:56
Moppyzodiac19: It's a device for a laptop to add extra ports. Some docks might have like a larger external hard drive so i suppose they *might* improve performance if you're low in disk space :)18:56

nacc+118:57
paranoidabhiMetamorphosis, which kde you have?18:57
alkisgparanoidabhi: if it's just a problem with kde, you should direct the question there. You can also check if it's kubuntu-specific or kde-specific, and report the issue accordingly.18:57
paranoidabhialkisg, I think it is driver issue. Why do you think it is a kde problem?18:57
Metamorphosisparanoidabhi at first it was KDE 4 but i managed to find a way and installed KDE 3.x packages on it.18:57
alkisgparanoidabhi: well, you can test with a live cd and see for yourself in a few minutes. KDE does have its own additions to the sound system.18:58
paranoidabhiMetamorphosis, why?  i am using kde 5.6 and am waiting for fixes in kde 5.7. I suspect older kdes must very unstable.18:58
nrml1any of you use puppet?18:59
CodFectionbekks, linux irc supports never actually help beginners18:59

alkisgHideme: anything else? e.g. check if xorg crashes, for example because you're using different settings than the default user19:24
alkisgresolution, compositing, stuff like that19:24
Hidemealkisg, maybe I should jsut rm the xorg.conf?19:25
ioriaHideme, at the login screen , can you open a console and login  ?19:26
alkisgHideme: If the system works with a new user but not with the old user, I don't think xorg.conf matters19:26
Hidemeioria, yes.19:26
Hidemealkisg, yes, very oddy how Gust account works and my user doesn't.19:26
ioriaHideme, try to create a new user19:26
Hidemeioria, okay19:27
mustmodifyfrustrating. When I ssh into my dev machine, and then ssh into a client's machine, if I step away, I come back and it's frozen and I can't disconnect.19:27
mustmodifyIs that an issue with the ssh config on my dev machine? or the client machine? or both?19:28
mustmodifyboth are ubuntu19:28
Hidemeioria, New user works.19:30
ioriaHideme, so personal setting issue, i guess19:31
alkisgHideme: one big test is to rename the two major settings folders so that new ones are created: (1) logout and go to e.g. vt1 to login as old-user, so that gsettings aren't used. (2) mv .local .local.old; mv .config .config.old (3) login normally as old-user. If at that point you can login, then you have confirmed that a user setting is to blame. But note that if you didn't understand the "mv" commands, and you don't know how to put those folders back, 19:31
ioriaHideme, yes, usually the problem is ~/.config and ~/.compiz19:31
HidemeTHank you.   I'll recreate users.19:32
ioriaHideme, remember to add user to sudo19:32
h4k1mhi everyone19:34
mixxithi19:35
h4k1mI have only windows on my laptop, and I want to install ubuntu on my ssd hard-drive19:35
h4k1mHas anyone done something similar?19:36
Bashing-om!dualboot | h4k1m19:36
ubottuh4k1m: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot19:36
mixxityep19:36
h4k1mI used to have a dual boot on my laptop's hard-drive19:36
mixxitbut its really hard if its a modern laptop19:37
mixxitall the guides are a bit out of date19:37
mixxitbattery management is not great in linux and it doesnt do well with switchable graphics19:37
h4k1mwhat I want to do now is (if possible), to keep Windows on my hard-driev19:37
minimech4k1m: Do you have two harddrives available? Is it an external SSD?19:37
h4k1mminimec: yes an external ssd19:37
mixxityeah thats fine but you should shrink the drive down a bit19:37
h4k1mmixxit: the internal one you mean?19:38
mixxityep19:38
h4k1mminimec: btw where will grub be installed in this case?19:38
mixxitfirst do 'Try Ubuntu' from a boot usb and see if it all works properly19:38
mixxitgrab rufus and the iso from the site19:38
Bashing-omh4k1m: Best to show the channel what we are working with . Can you boot up a liveDVD of 'buntu ?19:38
ioriah4k1m, on your externaal19:39
h4k1mBashing-om: yes of course (as I said I used to have a dual-boot with Windows)19:39
h4k1mand that I removed ubuntu completely as I don't use it that often (all my softwares are on windows)19:39
minimech4k1m: Ok. So basically you can just boot a live USB stick and use the external SDD as install medium. If you want to be sure, you can even remove the laptop hardrive. So you will not have any problem for the boot master sector. You moght have to disable EFI first in widows, but if you already had a dual boot system, you probably don't need to do that anymore.19:40
h4k1mioria: does it mean that grub will be installed on the external hard-drive?19:40
mustmodifySo the suggested escape sequence for an SSH session, ~. can't be typed (at least by me) because I need a shift for ~ but I need not to shift for .19:40
ioriah4k1m, yes19:40
minimech4k1m: To boot ubuntu, you just set USB to be the first boot medium.19:40
Bashing-omh4k1m: :) .. Great , show us your system partitioning ' sudo parted -l ' in a pastebin site . And we go from there .19:41
h4k1mioria: minimec thanks ^^, the question I still have to ask is whether it won't mess my windows bootloader19:41
h4k1mBashing-om: I didn't try it yet (I wanted just to enquire first before giving it a try)19:41
ioriah4k1m, windows is on the internal drive ?19:41
h4k1mioria: yes19:41
ioriah4k1m, no, it's fine19:42
rojohello19:43
rojoclear19:43
minimech4k1m: If you choose the SSD as install medium, it will also install grub to the master boot sector of the SSD (default setting). As said.. If you want to be sure, remove the windows harddrive (if that is possible).19:43
h4k1mioria: do you know if it will give good performances (due to the fact that it's installed on an ssd hard-drive)?19:43
=== dominus_ is now known as rikut
h4k1mminimec: yes but to remove windows' hard-drive I'd need to open my laptop...19:44
ioriah4k1m, ssd is good19:44
h4k1mminimec: I think I'll give it a try!19:44
ioriah4k1m,  usb connected ?19:45
minimech4k1m: Performance is depending of the speed of your USB3 port, but generally you should not have a problem. You can speed up perfomance with some tricks after installation. Mount /tmp to RAM for example.19:45
h4k1mioria: probably are there ssd hard-drives out there that plugged elsewhere (I dont have much experience with that)?19:45
minimech4k1m: During installation, wirte down the /dev/sdX device youa re installing Ubuntu on. It will probably be /dev/sdb for the external SSD. Then you install brub on the same /dev/sdX device, and you are good.19:47
ioriah4k1m,  well, in theory sata-usb adapter... but not very practical19:47
h4k1mioria: yes I see19:48
ioriah4k1m,  in the partitioning screen, in the installation process, remember to check (at bottom) the grub location19:49
h4k1mioria: does it mean that grub will "kind-of" supersede windows' bootloader when the ssd disk is plugged (and the bios is set to boot from the usb device)?19:51
ioriah4k1m,  yes19:51
h4k1mioria: Nice19:51
h4k1mioria: minimec Bashing-om Thanks very much guys for the help ^^19:51
ioriah4k1m,  no prob19:51

apb1963_rachelr: I don't know anything about mongo or vps or macbook... but after reading your link, basic troubleshooting technique forces me to ask the question "What is the exact error message?"  Any request for help should always include that information.  If no error message... say that, but also include info as to how you determined "it doesn't work".20:22

Tims_TechI just installed ubuntu 10 min ago20:28
apb1963_galabarg: Wild guess... but is sudo involved in any way?  Because 20 minutes is more or less about the time it seems to take for sudo to timeout.20:28
Tims_Techminimec, so any idea?20:29
galabargIt's all done through the gui, and iirc it doesn't even ask for my password (since shortcuts are something that would presumably be specific to a user).20:29
Tims_TechI really don't have that button :P20:29
minimecTims_Tech: ok. Hmmm... The 'lxde' package you installed seems to be the right one (Metapackage for LXDE). MAybe try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm', to reconfigure the login manager20:30

rockstar5hello guys I need help with something. I would like to play music from Android device to my PC speakers. the device is connected to a WiFi router on my PC which in turn is connected to an ADSL router which my PC uses for internet. I know how to stream to A2dp with bluetooth dongle but would like to do so somehow with wifi but can't find how since they are21:06
rockstar5not using the same wifi connection21:06
rockstar5is this possible?21:07
minimecrockstar5: I would think of an application like BubbleUPnP, that would share the music in the whole home network. Then use an UPnP player on ubuntu on the desktop...21:11
apb1963_adamg: This is where it comes from: aptitude -F '%c %p' search libsnmp-dev21:12
rockstar5which upnp player for desktop should I use? I tried rygel and minidlna but it doesn't get detected on bubbleupnp, maybe it might be because it's not a direct connection to the same wifi?21:12
apb1963_adamg: awk  matches the p at the beginning of the string, and then prints that line... resulting in libsnmp-dev:i38621:13
_adbi'm trying to grok the distinction between tasksels and virtual packages. who decides what's what and how do they determine this? it isn't necessary to install the tasksel package to use tasksels (however the note "Calling tasks from apt-get is not documented anywhere" doesn't inspire much confidence), but the tasksel package is needed to know which tasksels exist and what they contain? how does apt know?21:13
minimecrockstar5: vlc. Or there is this nifty application called 'djmount'. You could then mount the UPnP share as a folder in the filesystme21:15

transhuman_Hi! This is my quandry ubuntu 14.04 does not have ffmpeg in the repository and its a very long process to install. Ubuntu 15.04 is no longer supported so it looks like do-release-upgrade will work. Thirdly my video card will not work (on the chip with 16.04) any suggestions?21:45
keepguessingI am on ubuntu 16.0421:45
paranoidabhiThis is likely a hardware not a kde one. (I asked in kde)21:46
paranoidabhiPlease have a look if possible.21:46
Rexyxenialmess: They probley dont' want people downloading Linux ISOs in thier network /s21:46
keepguessingI cannot see my launcher taskbar and no shortcuts are working.21:46
xenialmess@Rexy typical reasons for this being?21:46
transhuman_sorry do-release-upgrade WONT work21:46
keepguessingAlso I cannot move my windows or do alt-tab.21:46
Rexytranshuman_: Find your video card, and see if you need specific drivers for it?21:47
keepguessingI tried dconf --reset21:47
keepguessingAny suggestions are highly appretiated.21:47
Rexy wouldnt want people torrenting there21:47
Rexyother than that no idea why the mirrors arent working21:47
Rexygo ask IT21:47
xenialmesshb direct download though?  probably large file size restrictions or something? yeah, ill have to ask it.21:48
transhuman_been down that road for 16.04 it aint happening. cant install the nvidia drivers cause of an init level problem where I cant get enough to install from boot and it isnt recognized in the system settings...a whole host of issues with 16.04 would be better to just upgrade to 15.04 but that is not possible correct?21:49
Amm0ntranshuman_, for 14.04 ffmpeg is avconv (which was a fork from ubuntu for some license reasons iirc)21:49
transhuman_right but it has returned in 15.0421:50
transhuman_wait your saying its now called avconv?21:50
Amm0nno it was called avconv in 14.04, you're right that it has returned21:51
transhuman_so there is no way to get 15.04 to install anymore?21:51
Amm0nit sounded like you just need ffmpeg on 14.0421:51
bekks!15.04 | transhuman_21:51
ubottutranshuman_: Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) was the 22nd release of Ubuntu. Support ended on February 4, 2016. See !eol, !eolupgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/vivid21:51
transhuman_its a real real long compile process frought with disaster for sure21:52
bekkstranshuman_: If you are still running 15.04 it is time to update.21:52
Rexyxenialmess: they might even have a mirror at the uni21:52

zodiac19_Is there an autokey script that can run a specific terminal command?21:53
xenialmessThanks @Rexy.  I'll check that out.21:53
transhuman_ok I will upgrade to 15.10 from 14.0421:53
transhuman_cant do 16.04 because of video card issues21:53
bekkszodiac19_: create a new hotkey, assign your script to be executed.21:53
bekkstranshuman_: then you have to reinstall 14.0421:53
keepguessingCan anyone suggest me a solution please21:54
zodiac19_I mean I need a script that can run a terminal command...21:54
bekkszodiac19_: every script can run a terminal command.21:54
zodiac19_okay then... thanks21:54
transhuman_bekks no I am STILL ON 14.04 backed up my crap and reinstalled 14.04 after a disaster with 16.0421:54
Rexyzodiac19_: You should be able to set hotkeys with whatever DE your using21:55
transhuman_I will do 15.1021:55
bekkstranshuman_: then just use avconv instead of ffmpeg.21:55
RexyI'd search your DE + Hotkeys or something21:55

lordcirthzodiac19_, try launching autokey from the command line, pressing the button, and see if you get an error on the command line.22:05

CompuOerHeks: upgrades never, ever go well23:37
Compuliterally never23:37
lordcirthCompu, that is probably why he said to clean install.23:37
Compuand i know for a fact that 16.04 breaks banshee media player23:37
i-I have a question to ask about snapcraft - why does it only have 2 packages (from what I see)23:38
lordcirthAlso I've had some 14.04 -> 16.04 upgrades work fine23:38
OerHeks.. that is your opinion, not verifyable as we cannot tell what you have added/tweaked.23:38
Compulordcirth: and i would lose everything23:38
CompuOerHeks: i tried banshee on a brand new 16.04 install on my mom's computer and yes 16.04 definitely breaks banshee23:38
Compuwhenever u try to import music in banshee it freezes, this doesnt happen in 14.0423:39
Compuin fact the same thing happened with rhythmbox23:39

docmurI'm getting this error, on my webserver:  You don't have permission to access / on this server.  Server unable to read htaccess file, denying access to be safe.  I have the entire directory 777, I'm running ubuntu 16.0423:40
Compudocmur: check the permissions on the .htaccess file23:41
docmur-rwxrwxrw-  1 www-data www-data23:42
Compudocmur: what user is the webserver process running under?23:42
lordcirthI wonder if Apache refuses to read an htaccess that is world-writable. I know ssh does a similar thing.23:43
docmurwww-data, but if I have it 777, that should override any user setting23:43
Compuand where is ur .htaccess file located?23:43
Compuit should be in the root of the webserver where ur index.html would be23:44
docmurin the web root23:44
Computry restarting the webserver23:44
docmurI'm starting to think this has nothing to do with Ubuntu, I'm going to switch to 14.04 and try again23:44
lordcirthdocmur, Apache problems are rarely distro-specific in my experience23:45
docmurI've never seen this before with any other project, and the project really doens't support 16.04 yet, so I'm going to try on the mainline for the project23:46

GEEMacHi folks, It's been almost two weeks since a fresh install of 16.04. A week since I filed a bug report.  I still have to ytpe " xrandr -s 1920x1080  " at every boot up or log in.  I have messed with xorg.conf, Lightdm, and even tried to place the line at startup.  Still not working. Any way of saving my screen resolution?  I did not have this issue in 14.04 LTS with the same computer hardware.23:54
Compuksft-mobile: have u rebooted and then tried connecting?23:55
OerHeksksft-mobile, what is the output of:   lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net23:55
ksft-mobileI hadn't tried rebooting23:55
ksft-mobiletrying now…23:55
Compuok23:55
ksft-mobilewell then23:55
Compurebooting is always a good idea23:55
YankDownUnderGEEMac: You can use "arandr" to read the scripts for xrandr and have it in your login scripts...I do this...23:55
ksft-mobileI guess I should have tried that first23:55
ksft-mobileit worked23:56
Compuwell there ya go23:56
Computheres a reason "did u try turning it off and on again?" is a thing23:56
ksft-mobileyup23:56
ksftI still wonder what happened23:57
ksftI wasn't even using my computer when it stopped working23:57
wiggmpkI have an issue with resizing a window. I have a lower resolution 1366x768 and need to stretch the window. So I move it off screen and attempt to stretch it. Once I start moving the window size, it snaps back on screen and I dont have the screen space to resize it anymore. How can I disable this 'feature"23:57
Compuksft: could be a number of things ranging from bugs in a driver to a cosmic ray hitting the RAM in ur computer just right23:58
YankDownUnderCompu: Solar flares.23:58
GEEMacYankDownUnder, Hi...  I have no clue about how to do that.  I spet almost a week reading all the old issues which realy didi not aply to 16.04.  Placing anything in startup now is a bust since that is not being read either.  I place three items in startup and not one of them are read.  Not sure if I am going to make a bug report on that yet.23:58
OerHekswiggmpk, ALT + left mouse: drag window ( or hold win key to see all options )23:59
GEEMacAnd I'm on a wireless keyboard please excuse the typos.23:59
YankDownUnderGEEMac: Firstly, install "arandr" => "sudo apt-get install arandr => after that, read the docs on it, you can create a "shell script" that will "reset" your default and then stick it in your autorun's23:59
wiggmpkOerHeks I should have mentioned I'm using gnome-shell (however I didn't get a responce in that room23:59
