dancingdemon__ | Also, I have quad core, how much should i give to that vm player ? | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
OerHeks | dancingdemon__, 256 mb, no more ! | 00:00 |
GEEMac | so what happened with 16.04. Does it not read xorg anymore? | 00:00 |
dancingdemon__ | 256 mb ? | 00:00 |
Compu | dancingdemon__: depends more on how much RAM ur system has and what u want to do with the VM and such | 00:00 |
dancingdemon__ | what?? | 00:00 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: Doesn't matter, really - let's focus on fixing you with "arandr" and then you can ponder the Universe after that, hmm? :) | 00:00 |
dancingdemon__ | i have 16 gb ram | 00:01 |
dancingdemon__ | what did he mean by 250 mb ? | 00:01 |
GEEMac | OK let me get that started. I just love work arounds... | 00:01 |
Compu | dancingdemon__: try 4 GB, that should be plenty for most things | 00:01 |
dancingdemon__ | thanks | 00:02 |
dancingdemon__ | which windows version ? 8 or 10? | 00:02 |
dancingdemon__ | also should i give it 2 cores ? | 00:02 |
wiggmpk | I tried to resize using ALT+Right Click but it still snaps back to the top menu bar | 00:02 |
OerHeks | asking what windows version depends on your license | 00:02 |
dancingdemon__ | I will use a cracked one | 00:02 |
Compu | dancingdemon__: 10 if u can, and 2 cores should be fine | 00:02 |
dancingdemon__ | ok ok thanks | 00:02 |
OerHeks | that is offtopic, lolz so do what you want | 00:02 |
dancingdemon__ | like are you serious :D | 00:03 |
Compu | dancingdemon__: if 2 cores doesnt work then try 4 | 00:03 |
dancingdemon__ | the issue is That I'm running rutorrent and deluge too | 00:04 |
dancingdemon__ | If i gave the windows 4 cores | 00:04 |
dancingdemon__ | then what is left for the rest,,, | 00:04 |
dancingdemon__ | i have quad cores | 00:04 |
dancingdemon__ | but I think 2 cores will still not be enough :( | 00:04 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Okay... I have it up and running | 00:05 |
Compu | dancingdemon__: VMs r good about managing the CPU, the main thing to worry about is RAM | 00:05 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Its already showing 1920x1080 | 00:05 |
dancingdemon__ | so compu, if i gave it 4 cores, rutorrent and deluge will still work fine? | 00:05 |
dancingdemon__ | i mean i only have quad, which is 4...right ? | 00:06 |
Compu | should but 2 cores should be plenty | 00:06 |
dancingdemon__ | ok i will do that | 00:06 |
Compu | what do u want to do with the VM? | 00:06 |
dancingdemon__ | i will be downloading stuff using cmd, i will have to open many cmds like 4 and run some script to download some movies from some site | 00:06 |
Compu | why do u need windows for that? | 00:07 |
dancingdemon__ | I tried it on VM running windows8 which I gave it 8 gb of ram and 3 cores and cpu was always 100% ! | 00:07 |
dancingdemon__ | its an .exe | 00:07 |
Compu | also the windows command prompt really doesnt need much RAM or CPU | 00:07 |
dancingdemon__ | i tried wine | 00:07 |
Compu | um | 00:07 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: So you'll see that you can "save as" -> save it as a script...and you can then use that script in conjunction with arandr to reset your resolution when you login to whatever desktop you're using | 00:07 |
Compu | dancingdemon__: what is a .exe? | 00:07 |
danny | Is rclone safe? It doesn't appear to be in the official repos | 00:07 |
dancingdemon__ | but that script download segments from some movie site... | 00:07 |

Guest57375 | dancingdemon__, Well, my concerns were about why it isn't in the official repos in the first place. But anything has got to be better than the official dropbox app. That crap uses way to many resources | 00:13 |

GEEMac | YankDownUnder, What I am reading is that it is suposed to save to a .desktop file. The sad part is that there is no .desktop file and if so there is somethig up with the autostart startup files not being read. I been at that for a few days trying to find out why when placing things in autostart they are not being started.. I keep looking in the folder (show hiden files) and it is always empty. | 00:17 |

=== Guest57375 is now known as somethingdope | ||
somethingdope | lordcirth, thanks bruh | 00:32 |
lordcirth | np | 00:32 |
Bashing-om | Keitaro: That test is for the ram installed . to check the file system is 'fsck' tool . | 00:32 |
YankDownUnder | somethingdope: http://freenode.net/kb/all => since you're new to IRC, this is worth reading. | 00:32 |
somethingdope | Oh and I just learned that text files made on linux need to be formatted to be read easily on windows systems. Is there a reason to not edit these files I want to open on windows systems in the dos format on linux? | 00:33 |
jhc76 | Guest57375 can't find syslog, can't run dmesg can't properly troubleshoot, postfix doesn't work with our smtp setup that other ubuntu boxes have no trouble with. This is a whole new OS. Ubuntu shouldn't have used it's name to associate with this. | 00:33 |
somethingdope | YankDownUnder, I'll take a look at that. I am super new to IRC | 00:33 |
elosz | Hello, everytime I do ssh -i ./myfile.pem user@serverip . How to avoid that? | 00:34 |
lordcirth | elosz, you want a shorter command? | 00:34 |
Keitaro | Bashing-om, thx | 00:35 |
elosz | lordcirth: I need something so that I don't have to specify -i option every time | 00:35 |
Keitaro | and fsck is for the whole disk ? or only linux partition ? | 00:35 |
lordcirth | Keitaro, fsck checks a single filesystem, so a single partition | 00:35 |
elosz | lordcirth: I cannot write to ssh/.config since server is amazon aws and its hostname keeps changing everytime | 00:36 |
keepguessing | k1l: I had ~/bin setup and a lot of files over there like the ones what would be in /bin the path was set to ~/bin:$PATH somewhere. This was breaking grep [the error we see in .xsession_error | 00:36 |

lordcirth | elosz, can you write to .bashrc? | 00:36 |
GEEMac | Oh | 00:36 |
GEEMac | I just saved it and no go | 00:36 |
elosz | lordcirth: yeah I can. I thought ssh-add or something will help. | 00:36 |
Keitaro | thx | 00:36 |
elosz | lordcirth: I mean I can write to ssh/.config too but it'd be useless since amazon instance will keep changing everytime | 00:36 |
GEEMac | It placed the folder and file but did not read it | 00:36 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: Create an "autostart" item...it's slightly different as per whatever desktop you're using. | 00:36 |
keepguessing | once I deleted the bin folder and edited the path everything worked fine. | 00:36 |
lordcirth | elosz, you could use ssh-add, or you could just make a bash alias | 00:37 |
elosz | lordcirth: how to do ssh-add? | 00:37 |
elosz | use* | 00:37 |
somethingdope | Why do I have a "New Document.ott" and a "New Spreadsheat.ots" in my Documents directory? | 00:38 |
somethingdope | I've tried to get rid of them and they seem to reapear? | 00:38 |
lordcirth | elosz, ssh-add ~/.ssh/KEY_PAIR_NAME.pem | 00:38 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: Your basic use would be: "arandr default.sh" (or whatever you named the settings script as) | 00:38 |
elosz | okay ty lordcirth | 00:38 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, I looked in .conf/autostart and it's empth. I also keep placing files to start via startup applications and after the reboot they are gon. | 00:38 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, are you using Libreoffice? | 00:38 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, yeah | 00:39 |
elosz | lordcirth: but the filename.pem is in my current directory say /home/elosz | 00:39 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, presumably it's LO autosaving new documents that you create | 00:39 |
lordcirth | elosz, so use whatever directory is needed? | 00:39 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, I did a test save a 1920x1080 it wrote the script but it does not get read at start up. | 00:39 |
elosz | lordcirth: so you mean ssh-add ./filename.pem should work? | 00:39 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, oh ok, I'll see if I did that by mistake | 00:39 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: What desktop are you using? Unity? Gnome? KDE? XFce? | 00:40 |
lordcirth | elosz, it's just a file path, so yes | 00:40 |
elosz | okay lordcirth | 00:40 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Unity, but running Metacity | 00:40 |

GEEMac | Something is also bugy when adding items to autostart. they don't get saved., but that's another issue. | 00:41 |
Bashing-om | Keitaro: 'fsck' is to check the linux ext family of file systems on a targeted partition . | 00:44 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, This is in the .screenlayout folder in the Home dir | 00:44 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, " #!/bin/sh | 00:44 |
GEEMac | xrandr --output VGA-0 --off --output TV-0 --off --output HDMI-0 --primary --mode 1920x1080 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal " | 00:44 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: ~/.config/autostart => if the directory does not exist, create it. | 00:46 |
GEEMac | It's there. | 00:47 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Should I place the .sh file there? | 00:48 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: So, you can create a simple script either with using "arandr" as your app, or directly using the xrandr commands...mark the script as executable (chmod +x nameofscript) and you should be set. | 00:48 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Okay... Let me chmod that file and reboot | 00:49 |

lordcirth | R13ose, what do you mean by bare bones? Is it a slow computer? | 00:52 |
somethingdope | What do you guys reccomend for a backup/storage/maybe media server? | 00:53 |
R13ose | lordcirth: I haven't tested the laptop, was given this today. I mean bare bones as in only basic packages and then someone else can install other packages if they need to. | 00:54 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, for what? Hardware? OS? Backup software? | 00:54 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Going to have to access that via Nautilus. right now the file has Owner:root R/W Group: None | 00:54 |
lordcirth | R13ose, Is a standard Ubuntu install too big? | 00:54 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, Sorry I have an old laptop I'mma put it on. so I'm curious about what os and software to use, I was thinking rsnapshot for backup and owncloud for storage | 00:55 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Keeo getting no perms via term | 00:55 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, either Ubuntu server, or possibly FreeNAS. | 00:55 |
GEEMac | ^keep | 00:55 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: If you look throught your "Applications" in Unity, you'll find a program called "Startup Applications" => you can use that as it's probably easier for ya, bro...I had to fire up a VM with Unity to find that... | 00:55 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, Not debian? | 00:55 |
R13ose | lordcirth: I am not sure. I don't want too many packages installed to confusing someone who will use this, that is all. | 00:55 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, also OwnCloud is forked to Nextcloud now, and a competitor worth looking at is Seafile | 00:55 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, nothing wrong with Debian, of course. But Ubuntu Server gets newer package versions | 00:56 |
GEEMac | ThYank That's the problem. Autostart is broken. I keep placing things there and they are not getting saved. | 00:56 |
R13ose | lordcirth: isn't there like a minimum instalment of ubuntu? | 00:56 |
cfhowlett | !minimal | 00:56 |
ubottu | 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 | 00:56 |
lordcirth | R13ose, I would just install Ubuntu Desktop 16.04 and choose Arabic, tbh. But yes there is | 00:56 |
R13ose | lordcirth: thanks. | 00:58 |
R13ose | How do I wipe Windows off the machine? | 00:58 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, I have a terminal program called Guake. I must have placed it in the autostart a dozen times and when I reboot or relog it does not start. same as a couple other programs. Also there is no option anymore to start in terminal. | 00:58 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, I'm just concerned about stability cause its gonna run 24/7, I am pretty new to all this | 00:58 |
lordcirth | R13ose, just choose to do so in the Ubuntu installer | 00:58 |
R13ose | great thanks. | 00:58 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, Ubuntu Server LTS's are quite stable. We run almost entirely server 14.04 in production at work. | 00:59 |
GEEMac | Also the items that get placed in autostart are gone after the reboot. | 00:59 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: Are you using the "Startup Applications" utility that I just told you about? | 00:59 |
GEEMac | This is a fresh install of 16.04 | 00:59 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: Yeah - you stated that already | 00:59 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, would you reccomend I use 16.04 server? | 00:59 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, yes I would | 00:59 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Yep. It is broken | 00:59 |
cfhowlett | somethingdope, see #ubuntu-server | 00:59 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, And what actually is different between a barebones ubuntu and debian? | 01:00 |
GEEMac | I even tried it from terminal with gksudo | 01:00 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, The main user-visible difference is newer packages. | 01:00 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: Then create an icon on your desktop and run it like that...personally, I don't use Unity (duh) - so I can only point to so much before I'm lost, bro...hmm... | 01:01 |
R13ose | lordcirth: I can make English the main language and then have someone switch to Arabic? Like I can choose English and Arabic in the installer and make English the main language? Arabic will not be needed until this is handed over. | 01:01 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, Oh ok, sounds fine for me then. I guess I just Put Ubuntu server in it barebones, and do everything through ssh? | 01:02 |
GEEMac | I don't run unity either After I kept having this screen resolution issue I went back to Flqashback Metacity | 01:02 |
cfhowlett | R13ose, if you doing an install for a hand-off, do an OEM install. choose precisely which packages / options you want. on first boot the user will still have one or 2 things to set, but after that will be plug and play | 01:02 |
lordcirth | R13ose, You can switch the main language after, but I'm not sure if it gets everything the installer setting does. I've never selected anything but en_US or en_GB, sorry | 01:02 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: Metacity is a window manager - not a desktop... | 01:02 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, yeah, and btw ssh keys speed things up | 01:02 |
sho__ | hello. | 01:03 |
GEEMac | I have a bug report on this and they are apparently busy with issues since a week has passed and no reply. I guess I am going to place another bug report on the autostart. | 01:03 |
R13ose | cfhowlett: yes but I don't know the packages needed and giving this to someone who will review and install packages needed. | 01:03 |
fermulator | new to Ubuntu 16.04 server; tried to "shutdown -r now", and poweroff.target: Job poweroff.target/start failed with result 'dependency'. | 01:03 |

fermulator | what is the correct way to reboot at this point? | 01:04 |
GEEMac | I am guessing that when you qadd something via the GUI autostart it would be saved as a scriopt in the .config/autostart. It is always empty | 01:04 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: Yet another reason why I've ended up with XFce (again...always ends up being XFce or Enlightenment or WindowMaker) | 01:04 |
lordcirth | fermulator, have you tried 'reboot' ? | 01:04 |
YankDownUnder | GEEMac: Yeah...noticed that...but I digress | 01:04 |
GEEMac | If I don't get an answer by Monday. Out goes 16.04 LTS and Back goes 14.04. I should hae just left things alone, but I thought maybe it would have some new goodies. Yep it does but also borked the rest of the new relese. | 01:06 |
sho__ | I want to request linux application recommendation. Is this the right place to do so? | 01:06 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, Also is Amahi good? | 01:06 |
cfhowlett | sho__, ask | 01:06 |
fermulator | lordcirth: yes, reboot yielded same message: A dependency job for reboot.target failed. See 'journalctl -xe' for details. | 01:06 |
sho__ | first, to do application. I've found several on google. Haven't try anything though. | 01:06 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, I have never heard of it | 01:07 |
GEEMac | Usually when placing a bug report they are quite quick to answer. | 01:07 |
fermulator | CTRL+ALD+DEL at the PTY doesn't even affect anything wow | 01:07 |
lordcirth | fermulator, well, did you "See 'journalctl -xe' for details" ? | 01:07 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, Its supposed to be a super simple server setup distro | 01:07 |
fermulator | lordcirth, it's just a whole whack of dependancy failed, darn, I'm on a temp system and the scrollback isn't enough to see anymore, i'm just power cycling it | 01:08 |
lordcirth | fermulator, something is very wrong with that system. Did you verify the install image? | 01:09 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, if you do try it out, let me know what you think. | 01:09 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Well< Thanks for the help. It's been three weeks so far and noting will save the screen resolution. I'll probably burry this anyway once Kodi gets out of Alpha with 17.x I have a Raspbery Pi 3 and less aggravation. Ubuntu 10.x was anightmare and now 16.04 LTS is another repeat | 01:10 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, ok, its tempting because you supposedly can still do things through commandline if you want to | 01:11 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, it's just a linux distro, one would hope so | 01:11 |
GEEMac | YankDownUnder, Cheers.... Thanks again for your help | 01:11 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, there's also FreeNAS, btw. It's BSD but is good for NAS. | 01:11 |

lordcirth | sho__, Not sure what you mean | 01:12 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, Wait, what is the difference between NFS and NAS? | 01:12 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, Network Attached Storage is the general concept of a dedicated file server that gets mounted over the network | 01:13 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, Network File System is a protocol for doing so. | 01:13 |
sho__ | for example, when I run an application on terminal, I will get prompt for password and message before the prompt. is that viable? | 01:13 |
R13ose | thanks everyone, I know what to do now. | 01:13 |
lordcirth | sho__, if you replace the application with a wrapper script, or alias the command, yes | 01:14 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, I see, that is exactly what I want for the storage part of the server. Its better to do that on FreeNAS than Ubuntu-server? | 01:14 |
sho__ | wrapper script? point me resource to them? | 01:14 |
lordcirth | sho__, a wrapper script is just a term for a script that calls another program with a few settings, or does something first. | 01:15 |
sho__ | Hmm... I think I know. | 01:15 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, FreeNAS does all this stuff out of the box, so it's nice if NAS is all you want. But if you want to do anything else, well, Ubuntu Server would be easier to work with. | 01:15 |
sho__ | so first, I had to remove the way to call the application from interactive terminal? Is that possible? | 01:16 |
GEEMac | . | 01:16 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, I want NAS for storage and rsnapshot or attic or whatever for automated backups. So I guess everything could be accomplished with FreeNAS. What if I wanted to add Plex though? | 01:16 |
lordcirth | sho__, if you make an alias with the same name, it will be overridden | 01:17 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, https://www.samkear.com/freenas/install-plex-media-server-freenas | 01:17 |
sho__ | Wait, isn't that looping? | 01:17 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, I see, What about for older computers? Is FreeNAS sutible for them? | 01:20 |
lordcirth | sho__, no, actually. No aliases are processed in an alias substitution | 01:20 |
kholdstayre | im on 14.04, I have installed the golang package and I can use commands like 'run' and 'build' with no problem, but 'get' always fails. Here are the relevant parts of my .bashrc and .bash_profile files https://paste.debian.net/791587/ , anyone know why 'get' command fails? | 01:20 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, On any Linux/BSD server OS, the OS itself takes almost 0 resources. It's just a matter of the services you run | 01:20 |
lordcirth | kholdstayre, you may want to ask on a Go support channel | 01:21 |
seednode | kholdstayre, what does it fail with | 01:21 |
kholdstayre | seednode, 'sudo: go: command not found' | 01:22 |
kholdstayre | but it recognizes 'go version' | 01:22 |
kholdstayre | and other go commands | 01:22 |
seednode | Okay, well, I guess we'll run through things one at a time; mind checking something for me re: bashrc? | 01:22 |
kholdstayre | seednode, sure | 01:22 |
lordcirth | kholdstayre, "go" is in your user's path but not root's | 01:22 |
seednode | Backup your .bashrc, and replace all your current existing GO variables with https://paste.ubuntu.com/23091255/ | 01:22 |
seednode | just those two lines | 01:22 |
seednode | then try a go get and pastebin me the error | 01:22 |
dmglone | exit | 01:24 |
seednode | Though lordcirth's advice is also relevant | 01:24 |
dmglone | oops | 01:24 |
somethingdope | lordcirth, I guess my biggest fear with freenas is the fear of having to learn an entirely new operating system | 01:24 |
seednode | FreeNAS is mostly configured through GUI, and apart from the iSCSI setup, is fairly well-designed | 01:24 |
lordcirth | somethingdope, up to you. | 01:24 |
kholdstayre | seednode, do i need to 'source' my bashrc file after making those changes? | 01:25 |
Keitaro | after the first boot and a install with nomodeset i have a perfect purple screen after login with only my pink mouth | 01:25 |
seednode | kholdstayre, yeah, source it | 01:25 |
seednode | or relaunch bash, but source is quicker | 01:25 |
Keitaro | how can i do the update ? sudo apt-get update doesn't work in the tty | 01:25 |
lordcirth | Keitaro, what does it fail with? | 01:25 |
kholdstayre | seednode, same error: 'sudo: go: command not found' | 01:26 |
Keitaro | i don't know when i log after my clean install (even if i use nomodeset) i have a purple screen with only my mouth in | 01:26 |
Keitaro | but when i do in the tty the command ls mkdir etc everything works well i see the folder | 01:27 |
Keitaro | i don't know what i have to do | 01:27 |
seednode | kholdstayre, okay, the $HOME variable isn't necessarily used properly with sudo, I don't remember offhand; if you go get as your normal user, does it work? | 01:27 |
kholdstayre | seednode, nope, permission denied https://paste.ubuntu.com/23091269/ | 01:28 |
lordcirth | kholdstayre, try with sudo -E | 01:29 |
keepguessing | I have tried to find "where the shortcut" for opening trash folder is configured but I could not. I want to change its key. Can someone help? | 01:30 |
kholdstayre | lordcirth, with sudo -E i get the same command not found error | 01:30 |
seednode | So, it's failing to run as normal user because it's using /usr/local/go/{package} as working dir | 01:31 |
seednode | but failing to run under sudo because it seems not to find the GOROOT | 01:31 |
seednode | hm | 01:31 |
kholdstayre | should i be doing something with the .profile file? tho that file says that if .bash_profile exists, then .profile will not be consulted | 01:32 |
|\n | hello, is apt mirror:// method supported by ubuntu officially and it is okay to use it on daily basis? | 01:32 |
kholdstayre | lordcirth, do you have an article about adding golang to root path by chance? | 01:33 |
lordcirth | kholdstayre, did you try copying the relevant lines to root's bashrc/ | 01:34 |
=== SparkySquirrel_ is now known as SparkySquirrel | ||

Katronix | HI all, anyone know what php-fpm is called for php 7.0? | 01:40 |
emerson | Depends on the distro, for deb it's php7-fpm | 01:41 |
Katronix | I'm actually running Mint, apt says I have php7.0-fpm installed, however php7-fpm is an unknown command | 01:42 |
dax | !mint | 01:43 |
ubottu | Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 01:43 |
lordcirth | Katronix, Mint is not supported here, however something like " apt-file list php7-fpm | grep bin" may help | 01:43 |
wildmanron1 | szb If you are on today or some one knows him I am letting you know i orderd a new video card and it will be here in two weeks i guess i hope it gets here will let you knw if it fixes the problem | 01:43 |
kholdstayre | lordcirth, im finally into /root/.bashrc, sry that was more complicated than it should have been | 01:44 |
kholdstayre | i dont see any export statements in there tho, should i put the export statements at the top? does it matter? | 01:44 |
lordcirth | kholdstayre, doesn't matter | 01:45 |
kholdstayre | lordcirth, ok, i have it in the /root/.bashrc, but unfortunately it wont let me 'source' the file, and its not responding to sudo either :/ | 01:51 |
keepguessing | how do I change a system shortcut in ubuntu. I cannot find it in shortcuts list | 01:51 |
kholdstayre | i am in a quandry | 01:51 |
keepguessing | but I can open trash folder when I do super+t | 01:51 |
lordcirth | kholdstayre, you don't need to source it, when sudo opens a shell it should be sourced | 01:51 |
lordcirth | keepguessing, try searching "keyboard" in Dash. There are different shortcut settings sometimes | 01:52 |
kholdstayre | lordcirth, i opened a new terminal and tried again, but same thing, command not found | 01:52 |
lordcirth | kholdstayre, oh, change $HOME to literal | 01:53 |
lordcirth | in root's bashrc | 01:53 |
keepguessing | lordcirth: I did do that it is not there. | 01:54 |
somethingdope | I decided on Open Media Vault for my server | 01:55 |
lordcirth | keepguessing, well, it's in one of those, I think. I'm on KDE so I can't look atm | 01:56 |
keepguessing | lordcirth: its not. Just found on google its hardcoded. | 01:56 |
kholdstayre | lordcirth, still no luck, $HOME is supposed to be where i keep my go projects, correct? not where the actual go binaries reside? | 01:57 |
lordcirth | keepguessing, really? That's strange | 01:57 |
lordcirth | kholdstayre, It's been a long time since I tried Go | 01:57 |
kholdstayre | lordcirth, no worries, thx anyway, the conundrum continues | 01:57 |
keepguessing | lordcirth: http://askubuntu.com/posts/40429/revisions | 01:58 |
lordcirth | keepguessing, well that's dumb. | 01:59 |
lordcirth | keepguessing, did you want to reuse that shortcut for a different command, or use a different shortcut for Trash? | 01:59 |
keepguessing | lordcirth: yes I wanted to use it for a different command | 02:00 |
keepguessing | kholdstayre: I kind of lost track of your problem. What are you facing? | 02:00 |
kholdstayre | keepguessing, i have installed golang, i can run commands like 'go run' and 'go version' without issue, but 'go get' fails with command not found | 02:02 |
kholdstayre | cant figure out why | 02:02 |
keepguessing | type alias and see if you have an alias | 02:02 |
kholdstayre | and i cant figure out what path is missing in which file so that bash can figure out what go get means | 02:02 |
keepguessing | also do set -x to see all the bash commands its trying. | 02:03 |
kholdstayre | keepguessing, is says that 'alias -x' is an invalid option | 02:04 |
kholdstayre | infact i just tried 'man alias' and is says there is no manual entry | 02:05 |
kholdstayre | but if i just type 'alias' i get output | 02:05 |
keepguessing | just trying alias i never said alias -x | 02:05 |
keepguessing | set -x is a seperate command :-) | 02:05 |
kholdstayre | ok, here is the output of 'alias' https://paste.debian.net/791590/ | 02:06 |
keepguessing | alias is clean | 02:07 |
keepguessing | what is set -x returning? | 02:07 |
kholdstayre | like, you want me to type 'set -x' into the terminal? | 02:08 |
kholdstayre | i dont really understand what you are asking me to do with the -x flag at this point | 02:08 |
reisio | 'help set' | 02:08 |

reisio | 'type set', etc. | 02:09 |
consolejazz | Machine has two NVIDIA GPUs with total 8 DisplayPort connectors (4 apiece) - which distro / WM will provide the most stable, no-fuss multi-display support? | 02:11 |
kholdstayre | i typed the command 'set -x', then typed the 'alias' command again, and other than the terminal now say '+ alias' at the beginning of its output, the output is the same as before | 02:11 |
keepguessing | kholdstayre: your alias is clean. | 02:12 |
keepguessing | Try go get now. | 02:12 |
consolejazz | Been using XFCE4 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, however, if one of 8 displays were unplugged (either accidently or not), display order is thrown out of whack. Can be very fickle, even with the latest NVIDIA drivers | 02:12 |
kholdstayre | same problem, without sudo it says permission denied, with sudo it says command not found | 02:13 |
reisio | consolejazz: not sure that's GNU/Linux specific :p | 02:13 |
kholdstayre | but if i type 'go version' it reports 'go version go1.6.3 linux/amd64' | 02:13 |
reisio | confucius say: things with non-radially-symmetrical connectors are always badly designed | 02:14 |
reisio | kholdstayre: how 'bout 'which go'? | 02:14 |
consolejazz | reisio: got ya. Any idea of better forum to try? | 02:14 |
kholdstayre | reisio, it returns the path to the go install | 02:14 |
reisio | consolejazz: you try with nouveau, or is that disqualified for some reason? | 02:14 |
reisio | kholdstayre: what path? | 02:14 |
kholdstayre | reisio, /usr/local/go/bin/go | 02:15 |
reisio | some path that is silly, that root doesn't have? | 02:15 |
reisio | ^yes | 02:15 |
reisio | use your package manager more, and this won't happen | 02:15 |
kholdstayre | reisio, go isnt in the package manager yet | 02:15 |
reisio | it's very unlikely root has that in its path | 02:15 |
kholdstayre | at least it wasnt when i installed go | 02:15 |
reisio | kholdstayre: 'go'? What is this, the go language compiler? | 02:15 |
kholdstayre | yeah, golang | 02:15 |
Keitaro | someone know how i can fix my purple screen problem after login plz ? | 02:15 |
consolejazz | reisio: hmm, don't believe so. Have nvidia-361 installed https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-361 | 02:15 |
reisio | okay, well, that might have been, I'd be surprised if it isn't available right now | 02:15 |
keepguessing | kholdstayre: what are the permissions on the folder /usr/local/go ? | 02:16 |
reisio | Keitaro: what color do you want?! :p | 02:16 |
reisio | j/k | 02:16 |
reisio | kholdstayre: I'd probably nuke that and reinstall go properly via the package manager; otherwise tell root where it is | 02:16 |
Keitaro | i wanta graphical interface | 02:16 |
Keitaro | any color will be good | 02:16 |
reisio | and/or fix the persm so non-root can use it | 02:16 |
keepguessing | kholdstayre: can you pastebin the output of the go get. | 02:16 |
reisio | Keitaro: when did it start being broken like this? | 02:16 |
kholdstayre | keepguessing, drwxr-xr-x | 02:17 |
Keitaro | reisio, since my first boot after my clean installation on dual boot | 02:17 |
keepguessing | and what are your permissions on the go binary? | 02:18 |
Keitaro | i installed and try to use ubuntu on my laptop a couple of day ago | 02:18 |
Keitaro | i still can't use it | 02:18 |
keepguessing | kholdstayre: Also check permissions on /usr/local/go/pkg and /usr/local/go/bin folders. | 02:18 |
kholdstayre | keepguessing, https://paste.debian.net/791595/ | 02:19 |
kholdstayre | also how do i turn this 'set' thing off? | 02:19 |
kholdstayre | im getting pages and pages of output | 02:19 |
keepguessing | set +x | 02:19 |
kholdstayre | oh thank god | 02:20 |
keepguessing | check permissions on /usr/local/go/pkg and /usr/local/go/bin folders | 02:20 |
reisio | Keitaro: okay | 02:24 |
reisio | Keitaro: from the purple screen, can you CTRL+ALT+F2 to a login prompt? | 02:24 |
Keitaro | yes | 02:24 |
kholdstayre | keepguessing, pkg and bin have the same permissions: drwxr-xr-x | 02:25 |
Keitaro | the tty works well | 02:25 |
keepguessing | give them 777 and see if your errors vanish. | 02:25 |
kholdstayre | anyway keepguessing reisio thx for the help, its getting late here, im going to hit the sack | 02:26 |
kholdstayre | alright, ill try it | 02:26 |
reisio | Keitaro: okay, do: sudo service lightdm stop; sudo rm /var/log/Xorg*log; sudo service lightdm start; grep EE /var/log/Xorg*log | 02:28 |
kholdstayre | keepguessing, it worked! at least as long as i dont run it as sudo | 02:28 |
kholdstayre | okay so yeah, i have a root permission problem somewhere | 02:29 |
kholdstayre | but thank you so much ! | 02:29 |
keepguessing | Are you running as the same user who created them? | 02:29 |
Keitaro | reisio, oki i will do that | 02:30 |
kholdstayre | keepguessing, yes | 02:30 |
keepguessing | kholdstayre: for some reason thats not true . you did not have write permissions for "groups" and "others" | 02:31 |
keepguessing | go get dumps pkgs in pkg folder. install installs binaries in bin folder. hence both were failing. | 02:32 |
keepguessing | go-nuts is the right channel for golang questions. | 02:32 |
kholdstayre | keepguessing, ok, i will have to figure out what is going on tmr, regardless thx much | 02:34 |

Keitaro | reisio, by sudo rm /var/log/Xorg*log you mean Xorg.log ? | 02:37 |
Aelita | I've tried this multiple times but Grub always gets deleted, it only goes to Windows (8.1 or 10). Boot Repair doesn't work either | 02:37 |
Aelita | reisio: Yeah, I thought it would change my nick. Oh well. | 02:37 |
reisio | Keitaro: the * tells your shell to match anything | 02:37 |

reisio | Aelita: not for queens of mars | 02:38 |
Keitaro | oh i see | 02:38 |
Aelita | Ah | 02:38 |
reisio | Aelita: so you've fixed it before? | 02:38 |
Aelita | By reinstalling everything | 02:38 |
Aelita | I used to have them as partitions on the same hard drive so I got another one (also I kinda wanted the 850 EVO) and it didn't solve the problem. | 02:39 |
cantoo | i use bash on ubuntu | 02:39 |
Aelita | Boot repair gave me this link if it helps: paste2.org/ktZc14wG | 02:39 |

Keitaro | reisio, is it normal that when i do sudo service lightdm start it bring me back to the login page ? | 02:41 |
Aelita | Keitaro: that's what it does for me, if that's any worth | 02:41 |
reisio | Aelita: well we can fix it, if you want | 02:42 |

reisio | Keitaro: by that you mean a solid purple screen? | 02:42 |
Keitaro | ok done do i have to copy what the grep said ? | 02:43 |

reisio | Keitaro: yeah so's I can see it | 02:43 |
Keitaro | oki* | 02:43 |
reisio | Aelita: probably a simple misconfiguration issue | 02:44 |

Aelita | It shows the motherboard brand, then the spinning Windows wheel then Windows. | 02:44 |
reisio | c_nick: what's compare it do? | 02:44 |
reisio | Aelita: and it just up and changed to this situation one day after doing nothing in particular? | 02:45 |
c_nick | reisio, its a comparison tool like a svn diff | 02:45 |

scoutmstershke | oh snap I did not know that | 02:49 |
scoutmstershke | Yeah I just want it to boot the drive and install the os to the vm | 02:50 |

scoutmstershke | I can't boot usb stick in virtualbox to install an os doesn't have it as a boot option | 02:59 |
daemon55 | cfhowlett: its ending support for that? | 02:59 |
cfhowlett | daemon55, yep. | 02:59 |
reisio | Keitaro: you paste? | 02:59 |
lordcirth | scoutmstershke, why not boot the iso? | 02:59 |
daemon55 | why | 03:00 |
cfhowlett | scoutmstershke, use the .iso | 03:00 |
reisio | cfhowlett: talking about hardware support? | 03:00 |
jundoe | good day, i need help. I installed ubuntu some weeks ago and installed lamp. Every was doing well until i upgraded my ubuntu from 14.04 to 16.04 but when i went to browser, i can no longer see my localhost. can any one help me fix | 03:00 |
cfhowlett | daemon55, reisio wait 1 for link | 03:00 |
scoutmstershke | I need to make a iso I don't have it | 03:00 |
reisio | a link saying 'yes' or 'no'? :p | 03:00 |
scoutmstershke | usb stick to iso | 03:00 |
reisio | laptop batteries don't even last 5 years | 03:00 |
reisio | doesn't really matter if you have hardware support for longer | 03:00 |
lordcirth | scoutmstershke, what iso was the USB made from? | 03:00 |
reisio | and even if they did, they'd be crazy outmoded in 5 years | 03:00 |
reisio | and even if they weren't, chromebooks are _so cheap_ they're simple to replace even on a budget | 03:01 |
daemon55 | so they are gonna do just like netscape communications did with netscape? | 03:01 |

reisio | Keitaro: I'm not sure | 03:10 |
reisio | Keitaro: I mean, yeah, EE's are not good | 03:11 |
reisio | Keitaro: you might try, just for starters, installing the proprietary nvidia drivers and using its silly old nvidia-xconfig script | 03:11 |
scythefwd | any wifi config gurus? I just installed Ubuntu server 16.04 on my netbook | 03:11 |
scythefwd | my wired is working fine, wifi is .. well its kicking my buttox | 03:11 |
scythefwd | nobody huh? | 03:14 |
Keitaro | reisio, and how can i install the proprietary nvidia driver ? | 03:15 |
Keitaro | the wifi and the cable ethernet seems to not work on ubuntu | 03:15 |
lordcirth | wifi works fine on Ubuntu, but Server requires some setup | 03:16 |
lordcirth | And what do you mean by "cable" ethernet? | 03:16 |
scythefwd | agreed.. thats what I'm trying to get done on mine | 03:16 |
lordcirth | scythefwd, are you using Network Manager or what? | 03:16 |
scythefwd | cli only lord | 03:16 |
reisio | Keitaro: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia#Installation_without_X_.2F_from_the_console | 03:16 |
rypervenche | scythefwd: What program are you using on CLI? | 03:17 |
scythefwd | my ethernet is working fine.. its the wifi that's killing me | 03:17 |
scythefwd | bash | 03:17 |
reisio | nmtui | 03:17 |
scythefwd | vi on /etc/network/interfaces | 03:17 |
lordcirth | scythefwd, so you're editing /etc/network/interfaces ? | 03:17 |
scythefwd | yup | 03:17 |
reisio | you don't want to manually configure wifi | 03:17 |
scythefwd | though if there is other programs, I'd gladly try it | 03:17 |
reisio | life's too short | 03:17 |
reisio | use nmtui if you don't have X | 03:18 |
scythefwd | I like the challenge reisio | 03:18 |
scythefwd | installed by default or apt-get? | 03:18 |
Keitaro | yes but can i configure my wifi in cli ? | 03:18 |
lordcirth | scythefwd, you're doing something like this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/541247/ubuntu-server-wifi#541249 | 03:18 |
reisio | I like challenges | 03:18 |
reisio | but learning the particular nonsense for this problem is less of a challenge and more of a time vortex | 03:18 |
reisio | you won't come out with useful new knowledge at the end, only despair | 03:18 |
scythefwd | lol | 03:19 |
scythefwd | why do they have the auto wlan0 cmmented out? | 03:20 |
reisio | there are no answers for such a question :p | 03:21 |
reisio | they probably won't even use whatever syntax they're using now in 6 months | 03:21 |
reisio | it's just a secret language that isn't worth spending time on | 03:22 |
scythefwd | lol | 03:22 |
lordcirth | scythefwd, because, as the question asks, they are trying to configure two interfaces. Leave yours uncommented | 03:22 |
scythefwd | ok, have it configed based off that, get an IP, show it connected to my router.. | 03:23 |
scythefwd | can ping my gateway.. but if I traceroute -I wls1 8.8.8.8 ... nothing | 03:23 |
scythefwd | if I do it from my wired interface.. works perfectly | 03:24 |
scythefwd | its an Atheros card.. that make a difference? | 03:24 |
reisio | probably not | 03:24 |
reisio | really, just use nmtui | 03:25 |
scythefwd | frustrating thing.. is that the install used my wifi just fine lol.. if it can config it in the setup, why in the heck didnt it config it for use after install? | 03:25 |
reisio | scythefwd: the install had X, didn't it? | 03:26 |
scythefwd | yes | 03:26 |
scythefwd | and that shouldnt have anything to do with it | 03:26 |
reisio | all it did was (1) start networkmanager (2) run nm-applet | 03:26 |
reisio | it didn't autoconfigurate it before that | 03:26 |
scythefwd | if it can be configured through x.. it can save the config so it doesnt | 03:26 |
reisio | that's all you should do | 03:26 |
reisio | s/nm-applet/nmtui/ | 03:26 |
Keitaro | ok i think ubuntu won't work on my asus i will use a virtual machine for my work it will be better i think | 03:27 |
reisio | yeah it could | 03:27 |
scythefwd | what asus do you have keitaro? | 03:27 |
reisio | but why should it save the config for strange people who are installing with a GUI who don't want a GUI? :p | 03:27 |
scythefwd | but it didnt.. which is idiotic | 03:27 |
reisio | it's not really, networkmanager is beastly | 03:27 |
reisio | you wouldn't want it on an ordinary server install | 03:27 |
scythefwd | what reality are you on reisio? install with gui.. because that is default, run headless.. guess he wont want his hedless server using his nics | 03:28 |
scythefwd | it didnt config either nic.. that's poor setup | 03:28 |
reisio | wifi servers are also unicorny | 03:28 |
scythefwd | it ditn config the ethernet either | 03:28 |
reisio | the ethernet didn't just work? | 03:28 |
Keitaro | scythefwd, this one but it is in french http://www.ldlc.com/fiche/PB00204431.html | 03:28 |
scythefwd | the wifi is more out of curiosity.. but if it used it in setup, it probably should save the dang config.. | 03:29 |
scythefwd | no reisio.. it didnt | 03:29 |
reisio | ah, that's lame, yeah | 03:29 |
scythefwd | wow.. fully install x just to config a nic.. I thought Linux was supposed to be flexible | 03:30 |
reisio | well you said you already got it working with a simple reconfiguration, so no :p | 03:30 |
wsky | scythefwd: you know what ubuntu means, right? | 03:30 |
reisio | but for wifi, without wasting your time, you'd want something magical like nm, yeah (though it can be Xless) | 03:30 |
scythefwd | something people | 03:30 |
reisio | scythefwd: nude people, right | 03:30 |
wsky | scythefwd: it means "i can't configure debian" | 03:31 |
reisio | hehehh | 03:31 |
scythefwd | well, every config I try.. it hasnt worked | 03:31 |
wsky | something something /etc/network/interfaces something get rid ofnm | 03:32 |
wsky | man man | 03:32 |
reisio | I think I said already, you don't want to try and config it yourself :p | 03:32 |
dancingdemon__ | anyone know another way of running .exe on ubuntu except wine? | 03:32 |
scythefwd | like on the guide linked earlier.. does it want the hash or the passkey in open text? | 03:32 |
reisio | dancingdemon__: not another way that's likely better, no | 03:33 |
reisio | dancingdemon__: what exe? | 03:33 |
ImperiusR4 | sudo apt-get | 03:33 |
dancingdemon__ | i have this .exe that seems to work with wine but it download 720p only while if i use it in windows, It downloads 1080p | 03:33 |
dancingdemon__ | some .exe to download movies from some site | 03:33 |
reisio | scythefwd: probably plain, but there are usually options | 03:33 |
reisio | not worth learning | 03:33 |
reisio | dancingdemon__: from windows on the same box? | 03:33 |
reisio | dancingdemon__: any particular site? | 03:33 |
dancingdemon__ | some private site, i have windows on VMplayer and yup it downloads 1080p and my laptop is windows and 1080p | 03:34 |
dancingdemon__ | while wine on ubunutu only download 720p | 03:34 |
reisio | so you're talking about rtmp nonsense | 03:34 |
scythefwd | well reisio, heres a fun one for ya.. I disable my ethernet.. and my router shows my wifi connecting on wifi, I enable my ethernet, and router sees both macs on the ethernet ports | 03:34 |
dancingdemon__ | i guess | 03:35 |
dancingdemon__ | this can't be fixed right/ | 03:35 |
reisio | course it can | 03:35 |
dancingdemon__ | what can i be doing ? | 03:35 |
dancingdemon__ | i use the same command to make it work | 03:35 |
dancingdemon__ | on everywhere else... | 03:35 |
reisio | scythefwd: y'know what they say about networking devices that do more than one thing, right? | 03:35 |
reisio | they say "<crying goes here>" | 03:35 |
rypervenche | haha | 03:36 |
reisio | dancingdemon__: could be the site is sniffing your environment and choosing based on that | 03:36 |
dancingdemon__ | yeah that also makes sense hehe | 03:37 |
reisio | in which case you can falsify your information | 03:37 |
reisio | but ideally you'd just use a native rtmp dumping utility | 03:37 |
reisio | they exist | 03:37 |
reisio | they're just not quite as... "friendly", last I checked | 03:37 |
reisio | all frontends to rtmpdump, IIRC | 03:38 |
dancingdemon__ | thanks reisio | 03:38 |
reisio | rtmp being pretty unfriendly by design :p | 03:39 |
dancingdemon__ | hehe | 03:40 |
cantoo | i truely would like to understand the process of how ubuntu compiles the grub for EFI package ? | 03:42 |
reisio | talking about for secure boot? | 03:44 |
cantoo | yes | 03:44 |
cantoo | i never did understand why it was never made blatant for me to choose in my bios setting the function of Windows 7 UEFI enabled, fort he purpose of "OTHER OS" which was also explicitly labelled. such things have a serious nature when it comes to validation of a system and its computer. | 03:48 |
cantoo | thats all it took for me to install grub2 on uefi on ubuntu. choose "the Windows 7" OS. and try give it 1024 FAT32 preformated by selected as "EFI partition" | 03:49 |
cantoo | megabytes | 03:49 |
cantoo | i do ask and as a ubuntu user urge the facilitation of platinum binding for validation because cloning happens. | 03:51 |
cantoo | i do suggest that equivalent is someth | 03:54 |
cantoo | sorry about that | 03:54 |
cantoo | it went to wrong channel | 03:55 |
reisio | cantoo: that's just down to hardware vendors | 03:55 |
reisio | either they've locked that route utterly, or they haven't | 03:55 |
reisio | and sometimes when they have, they leak how to unlock | 03:55 |
reisio | there are UEFI-utilizing devices that you can't boot random OSes from | 03:56 |
reisio | mostly ARM tablets | 03:56 |
reisio | it's thankfully not all that popular, because it's awful :p | 03:56 |
reisio | anyway, the software is called 'shim' | 03:57 |
reisio | original name, no? | 03:57 |
cantoo | is it not theoretically possible to apply to ubuntu what happens to windows 7 gold and above even though the its pro bono ? and does this happen in the legal system ? | 03:57 |
cantoo | i like it. shim | 03:58 |
cantoo | it is a understanding passdown through me that UEFI altering happens by undetectable access to bios calls | 03:59 |
reisio | eh, there are a number of things to do with U/EFI other than merely being an alternative to traditional BIOS | 04:00 |
cantoo | thanks. shim's an awesome name | 04:00 |
kotaro_ | hallo | 04:00 |
reisio | for the moment, again, it's just down to the vendors | 04:00 |
reisio | either they are willing to keep it open, or they have a secret key you can't have | 04:00 |
reisio | eventually someone will crack it, and they'll have to invent some new clownware to try and make our lives hell | 04:01 |
kotaro_ | anyone use xubuntu 16.04 LTS have problem with audio sink | 04:01 |
kotaro_ | ? | 04:01 |
reisio | in the meantime, if you don't like it (not saying you don't :p), you can not buy things that use it | 04:01 |
cantoo | i like to believe i can use what i desire the most which is linux. sometimes it's an interference when claimants say i ran windows 7 but didn't. i went straight to ubuntu, and didn't UEFI it. i tried blank hostname too. | 04:02 |
reisio | all the U/EFI things I've run into have a "BIOS emulation" thing you can use anyway | 04:03 |
reisio | it's a total circle jerk | 04:03 |
wsky | uefi has been revealed of containing a backdoor so it's already pointless | 04:04 |
cantoo | certain circles of windows 10 had it patched but thats not relevant to ubuntu so i only say that fixing operating systems is very universal | 04:05 |
cantoo | they never pro bono | 04:05 |
kotaro_ | ? | 04:05 |
kotaro_ | ohmen | 04:06 |
reisio | it was pointless from the start, really | 04:06 |
reisio | even this lockout stuff you can do with it, you can do with "BIOS", too | 04:06 |

guest3215 | I want to host a minecraft server from my house. I want to use a VPN to host the server, and I want to use something like free like no-ip to track the IP address. I've never done anything VPN before, and I see a lot of VPN providers tell you to download their software. However, I see that there is OpenVPN, which is a standard. I also see the OpenVPN Ubuntu wiki article on OepnVPN servers. Where can I get an OpenVPN client (if | 05:28 |
guest3215 | that's something that you get)? | 05:28 |
wsky | better get a vps | 05:29 |
guest3215 | wsky, I'm thinking about VPN gate. | 05:30 |
wsky | think about a vps. you will remain more hair on your head. | 05:31 |
guest3215 | wsky, I want to physically host it on my computer. | 05:33 |
wsky | why | 05:33 |
guest3215 | wsky, 1. I am not legally responsible for damages on someone else's server, since it's my equipment 2. I already have a badass computer 3. more control | 05:35 |
reisio | guest3215: what is it you want the vpn for? | 05:35 |
wsky | guest3215: a vps is a server of yours | 05:36 |
reisio | no-ip is free, but afraid.org might be better | 05:36 |
guest3215 | reisio, hide my personal location | 05:36 |
reisio | guest3215: from who? | 05:36 |
reisio | clients? | 05:36 |
guest3215 | reisio, yes. | 05:36 |
reisio | ah | 05:36 |
int-01 | hllo | 05:37 |
reisio | I'm not sure you can really do that on your own | 05:37 |
reisio | most people say 'vpn' when they mean 'proxy' | 05:37 |
reisio | and a proxy is a proxy, it is an extra piece | 05:37 |
reisio | you can probably do it for gratis, though | 05:37 |
int-01 | hfgjy | 05:37 |
reisio | I miss int-01 | 05:38 |
guest3215 | Well, if I Google "proxy", I'm going to get results for web proxies (which wouldn't do the trick, as I couldn't port forward it) | 05:38 |
reisio | yeah, very pervasive usage of 'vpn' | 05:38 |
reisio | but if you think about a proxy, you'll realize you can't have a proxy with only yourself | 05:38 |
guest3215 | reisio, wait, are you meaning the proxy isn't dedicated to me? | 05:39 |
Ben64 | guest3215: you can't do what you want to do and have it be usable | 05:40 |
reisio | guest3215: no I mean the definition of proxy involves a 3rd party | 05:40 |
reisio | whereas the definition of 'vpn' involves buzzing words :p | 05:41 |
guest3215 | reisio, I know the concept of a proxy. you -> proxy -> wherever and wherever -> proxy -> you | 05:41 |
reisio | right | 05:42 |
cfhowlett | guest3215, bit of clarification: openVPN is NOT a vpn provider. it is the ubuntu vpn software that connects you to a provider. | 05:44 |
guest3215 | cfhowlett, well I know that. I was looking for the OpenVPN client, so I could use it with VPN gate. | 05:45 |
Ben64 | guest3215: it's not going to be usable for a minecraft server | 05:46 |
SlakViper | guest3215: Setting it up the way you are wanting to would most likely mean paying for a service/server to handle the proxy.. at which point you might as well just rent a vps, put your MC server on it and save a TON of headaches | 05:46 |
reisio | it could be | 05:46 |
reisio | the funnest part about paying for a proxy you're using for anonymity is the paying for it anonymously part :p | 05:46 |
SlakViper | yeah.. very few accept bitcoin :( lol | 05:48 |
wsky | reisio: indeed | 05:48 |
guest3215 | it was worth trying. Learn something every day. | 05:48 |
wsky | SlakViper: you still can be tracked with bitcoins | 05:48 |
reisio | you just need a proxy for your payment for your proxy :p | 05:49 |
reisio | money laundering ftw | 05:49 |
SlakViper | true.. but seeing as how the NSA already scans my poop as it passes through the pipes, I'm not too woried about it :) | 05:49 |
reisio | well, it's not particularly illegal anyway | 05:50 |
cfhowlett | let's keep it clean, shall we? NSA aside, this is a family friendly channel. | 05:50 |

_openbook_ | HI guys... I wish to create a minimal openbox based os on my laptop. Can anyone tell me if the minimal.iso supports efi booting ?? If it doesn't could I use the server iso instead ?? Many thanks for your help :) | 06:23 |
ducasse | _openbook_: i think they both support efi, i used the server image myself to set up a minimal desktop. afaik the mini.iso is identical except that there are no packages on it. | 06:31 |

minas114 | Good morning! :) | 07:05 |
YankDownUnder | 17:06 => yes, it is morning somewhere. | 07:06 |
amk | #connect python | 07:06 |
minas114 | I am wondering why the default swappiness value is set to 60. I read some stuff about setting it to 10 to reduce swapping unless really needed. But why is the default 60? Are there some benefits to it? | 07:09 |
YankDownUnder | minas114: The default is set is it is due to many years of coming to an "average" that suits most situations. If *your* situation sees differently, then, by all means, change it. | 07:10 |
minas114 | YankDownUnder, Are you aware of situations where it's better to have a higher swappiness value rather than a lower one? | 07:11 |
YankDownUnder | minas114: Depends on the function of the workstation, really. A "normal" desktop is different than a video-editing desktop or a graphic desktop - or a dev desktop...so it's really "application and user" specific...ditto with servers... | 07:12 |
team2016 | i can’t remember vncserver password. how can i do? | 07:12 |
wsky | minas114: when you get out of ram with low swappiness and your system starts swapping it's too late and you're being locked down | 07:13 |
=== OpenSorce is now known as opensores | ||
=== opensores is now known as OpenSorce | ||
wsky | minas114: better to put a bit of data to swap so you don't get dangerously low on ram | 07:14 |
wsky | because wehn you're @ 99% of used ram and you're starting to swap then you get a massive lag | 07:14 |
minas114 | wsky, Ah, so if the value is higher, the delay will be "spread" | 07:15 |
YankDownUnder | Y'all do know that there's like vast amounts of information pertaining to VM memory in the wiki's, right? As well as online...? | 07:16 |
wsky | minas114: yeah you'll leave some ream for the time you really need it | 07:16 |
wsky | and buffers, cache etc | 07:16 |
wsky | YankDownUnder: yeah. and we can also dispute | 07:17 |
wsky | that's another way to do it | 07:17 |
YankDownUnder | I've nothing to dispute with the devs that have obviously spent years working on distributing distros...however, please, by all means, feel free. | 07:17 |

mooncup | Ben64: just tried that and it doesn't seem to have made a difference | 07:27 |
YankDownUnder | minas114: 15 years ago, 512mb of RAM on a server was heaps...like heaps... | 07:27 |
wsky | 16 is perfect for personal use | 07:27 |
wsky | more than that is rather server wise | 07:27 |
minas114 | wsky, I believe it's 16GB nowadays. Otherwise you will get into swap land soon. A java IDE, an emulator, browser (+youtube), a local java server... | 07:27 |

eXistenZe | Hey there. | 08:25 |
eXistenZe | besides the DE, is there any major diference between ubuntu flavors? | 08:26 |
eXistenZe | trying to decide between ubuntu and kubuntu | 08:26 |
ducasse | eXistenZe: not really | 08:27 |
reptarius | hy guys, how are u? | 08:27 |
hateball | eXistenZe: no, it's just default packages. and you can always run different DE's side by side | 08:27 |
hateball | also kubuntu uses sddm instead of lightdm | 08:28 |
eXistenZe | I can install plasma in ubuntu? and gnome or unity in kubuntu? | 08:29 |
hateball | eXistenZe: Yes, choose your DE/Session at login | 08:29 |
hateball | eXistenZe: So if you install Ubuntu first, you can simply "sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop" afterwards | 08:30 |
k1l_ | eXistenZe: the base OS is the same. only the desktop preinstalled is the difference. you can change desktops afterwards or keep them installed at the same time | 08:30 |
hateball | I do think there is a conflicting package however, some... IM-thing | 08:30 |
hateball | Unless that got fixed | 08:30 |
k1l_ | that is an kubuntu package issue, iir | 08:31 |
k1l_ | iirc | 08:31 |
hateball | Yes well I havent monitored it too closely as I run pure Kubuntu and don't switch :) | 08:32 |
eXistenZe | Used kubuntu a while ago (I think it was 16,04 already) and had major plasma issues | 08:35 |
eXistenZe | crashes, and file corruption in /home plasma folders | 08:35 |
stejer | hi guys | 08:36 |
eXistenZe | had to restore it with command line | 08:36 |
eXistenZe | is this fixed? | 08:36 |
stejer | a quick question | 08:36 |
k1l_ | eXistenZe: hard to say without knowing what was wrong. | 08:36 |
k1l_ | eXistenZe: but file corruption sounds more like a hardware/filesystem issue | 08:36 |
eXistenZe | k1l_: it was always the same files, and it was a new ssd. Several people reported the same issue at the time | 08:37 |
stejer | My desktop (Win7) is connected to the internet with TL-WN722N usb antenna, I made bootable usb with ubuntu and now, I'm thinking, how to install drivers for that antenna after I install ubuntu cuz I won't have any connection otherwise? :D | 08:38 |
eXistenZe | guess I'll try unity for now | 08:38 |
stejer | i found some instructions to install it, but im gessing i need and internet for all of that | 08:38 |
eXistenZe | funny how kubuntu is nº51 in distrowatch. Guess people don't like kde or plasma anymore. | 08:39 |
stejer | so is someone familiar with this stuff, can i find somewhere a driver installation for that antenna and then put in on flash disk so i can install it manual, as i would say | 08:39 |
XRS1 | yes you will need ethernet connection or download the files first before starting | 08:40 |
XRS1 | @ stejer | 08:41 |
stejer | i realised that | 08:41 |
stejer | so im asking | 08:41 |
stejer | downloading before | 08:41 |
stejer | is my option here | 08:41 |
stejer | ? | 08:42 |
XRS1 | no thats the last thing youll want to do | 08:42 |
XRS1 | you are better off spendng $10 or a new wifi dongle | 08:42 |
XRS1 | on a new* | 08:42 |
stejer | oh, okay than | 08:42 |
stejer | thanks | 08:42 |
stejer | i thought i can download it before and then install it, thats why i came here to ask, i dont wanna get stuck after :D | 08:43 |
kangoo | anyone uses API? | 08:43 |
XRS1 | yeah thats the biggest headache. you dont wanna do that to yourself | 08:44 |

brunch875 | I want to set up one of those "localhost emails" but I have absolutely no idea where to begin | 09:10 |
brunch875 | nor whether it's become an obsolete system | 09:10 |
heeen | is there a PPA with a 4.8 kernel | 09:11 |
hateball | !mainline | heeen | 09:12 |
ubottu | heeen: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds | 09:12 |
heeen | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/ this does not look like a PPA url to me - shouldn't it have dists at the root? | 09:12 |
k1l_ | heeen: you need to install those packages manually. there is no ppa from the kernel team with automatic updates | 09:13 |
blackflow | brunch875: localhost emails? can you be more specific? | 09:13 |
brunch875 | I'm not sure I can | 09:14 |
brunch875 | I believe it's related to /var/mail | 09:14 |
blackflow | brunch875: okay, what's the end result you want to achieve? | 09:14 |
brunch875 | learning how to use /var/mail if it's useful at all | 09:15 |
brunch875 | sounds like the typical handy unix thing I yet do not know | 09:15 |
ducasse | brunch875: if all you want is local mail, install postfix and choose 'local only' in the config dialog. | 09:15 |
glencher | I am trying to open "epiphany-browser", which is installed on my ubbuntu 16.04, but all I get are messages like, "(epiphany:5455): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: gtk.css:27:35: Junk at end of value". there are 6 of these "parsing error" messages. What must I do? Thank you. | 09:17 |
blackflow | glencher: sounds like a warning (Gtk-WARNING), so probably nothing. How are you starting it? from the command line? | 09:18 |
glencher | Yes, from the command line. | 09:19 |
brunch875 | ducasse: Do I need to install postfix to have the system service of local mail running? Or is it just a client? I tried to add a local mail account on evolution and it seems to be hanging | 09:22 |
G66K | hello Good people | 09:25 |
blackflow | brunch875: yes (or any other MTA). local mail has traditionally been delivered through Sendmail, and thus "sendmail" binary, which is nowadays emulated by all of the MTAs, Postfix included. | 09:25 |
brunch875 | aight thanks ☺ | 09:25 |
G66K | im using xrandr to change the display for second monitor but its keept returning to current resolution | 09:25 |
blackflow | brunch875: and traditionally the "local mail account" is a mbox format file, in /var/mail/somewhere, so I'm not sure how you'd add that to clients like evolution which require either imap or pop3 (unless I'm mistaken and they _can_ work with local mbox files) | 09:26 |
brunch875 | apparently there's that choice under 'new mail account' | 09:27 |
brunch875 | I'll test and see | 09:27 |
ducasse | brunch875: most mail clients can use local mail spools, but you need an mta like postfix. i know postfix can be set up in local only mail, which is why i suggested it. | 09:27 |
blackflow | brunch875: http://askubuntu.com/questions/21695/how-can-i-set-up-evolution-to-access-a-local-mail-box I guess it's doable then. | 09:28 |

glencher | I believe Epiphany came with ubuntu 16.04. I tried to install it anyway, but it, the newest version, is already installed. And then all these parsing error messages. What a mess. | 09:43 |

blackflow | glencher: there's no Epiphany on default 16.04 Unity installation. so you must've installed it, the question is _how_ | 09:47 |

blackflow | chl_: look at Brightness&Lock section of Settings | 11:35 |
pradeda | does anybody have idea how to view image from terminal (ubuntu server 16.04 i386) | 11:37 |
chl_ | blackflow: I turned everything off in Power and same for Tweak tool and set 'org.gnome.desktop.session idle-delay 0' | 11:37 |
pradeda | i havent use ligunux gui since unity is default | 11:40 |
blackflow | chl_: yeah but what about "Turn screen off when inactive for" in Brightness & Lock? | 11:40 |
blackflow | pradeda: you mean like on the console and/or ssh? Not sure if possible, except maybe with something like w3m-img | 11:40 |
punkgeek | im going to install openstack but ive got this error | 11:40 |
blackflow | pradeda: like, without Xorg, that's what I mean | 11:40 |

hateball | pradeda: you can view images in framebuffer without X.org | 11:41 |
chl_ | blackflow: everything is turned off or set to off | 11:41 |
hateball | pradeda: you can use img2txt if you want to convert images to ascii | 11:42 |
punkgeek | can i install openstack on ubuntu 16.04 ? | 11:42 |
blackflow | chl_: so, "Turn screen off when inactive for" is "Never"? | 11:42 |
Pantsu | punkgeek: sure | 11:42 |

gvvg | Hi - I have a ubuntu setup that I need to duplicate exactly for 10 computers - I really don't feel like installing and configuring each one - can anyone suggest a good solution? backup and restore? is that the best method? | 12:36 |
luxio | gvvg: copy the install to a flash drive and then just copy all files over? | 12:37 |
luxio | might still have to do the partitioning for every machine | 12:37 |
gvvg | luxio: then install again? I'm hoping to avoid all the ap-get update;upgarde;install etc | 12:38 |
luxio | well I'd imagine if all the files are exactly the same, everything's considered installed | 12:38 |
OerHeks | !landscape | 12:38 |
luxio | after all, it's really all those commands do, right? | 12:38 |
ducasse | gvvg: have you lookaf at apt-clone? | 12:38 |
ubottu | Landscape makes the management and monitoring of Ubuntu systems simple and effective by combining world-class support with easy to use online management tools. https://landscape.canonical.com/ | 12:39 |

luxio | I'm finishing up the Ubuntu Server installation and don't recall ever entering a root password | 12:40 |
luxio | Was I supposed to do that at some point? | 12:40 |
wfleming | nah your user will be a sudo user. If you want can sudo su - to root and set it | 12:41 |
ducasse | !root | luxio | 12:41 |
luxio | oh that's another thing I don't really understand about Ubuntu | 12:41 |
ubottu | luxio: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 12:41 |
luxio | why is it "sudo su" and not just "su"? | 12:42 |
luxio | I'm coming from debian so I don't really understand that stuff | 12:42 |
wfleming | sudo will ask for your user passwd | 12:42 |
wfleming | su will ask for root. | 12:42 |
luxio | wasn't the point of sudo to minimize the amount of time you have root access? | 12:44 |
=== xoxoxoxo is now known as xoxoxo | ||

hateball | noonehere_: with proprietary driver? | 12:58 |

noonehere_ | nvidia glx driver | 12:58 |
noonehere_ | oh? | 12:58 |
Pici | Netek: seems reasonable. Consider perhaps putting the config file in /etc/nginx/sites-available/ and then symlinking sites-enabled if you want to make it easy to disable, but not delete configs. | 12:58 |
noonehere_ | hdmi and dvi? | 12:58 |
noonehere_ | hateball, yep | 12:58 |
noonehere_ | do you need to know the exact driver version #? | 12:58 |
Netek | Pici yes, I knew i was forgetting something. Thanks :) | 12:58 |
hateball | noonehere_: well you should be able to use both VGA and whatever | 12:58 |
hateball | noonehere_: sometimes devices dont have proper EDID so that could explain why it is reported wrong | 12:59 |
noonehere_ | nvidia driver version 352.63 | 12:59 |
hateball | noonehere_: are you on 14.04 ? | 12:59 |
noonehere_ | it's just reported wrong? | 12:59 |
noonehere_ | So don't have to worry about the incorrect reporting? | 12:59 |
noonehere_ | I think 15.10 | 12:59 |
hateball | noonehere_: as long as you can set the desired resolution and refresh rate | 12:59 |
hateball | noonehere_: 15.10 is EOL, upgrade to 16.04. The 352 driver is quite old also | 13:00 |
hateball | noonehere_: "lsb_release -a" will tell you the truth | 13:00 |
noonehere_ | lsb_release -a gives 15.10 | 13:00 |
hateball | Right, so that means it is time to update | 13:01 |
noonehere_ | is it better to upgrade the OS ver. before the nvidia ver. or vice versa? | 13:01 |
noonehere_ | I always forget - I think the OS ver. though, right? | 13:02 |
hateball | noonehere_: 15.10 is EOL, that is what is important here | 13:02 |
noonehere_ | I suspect 1) OS v 2) kernel - if desired 3) nvidia ver | 13:02 |
noonehere_ | right? | 13:02 |
hateball | You no longer get updates | 13:02 |
noonehere_ | oh okay | 13:02 |
hateball | noonehere_: Once you are on 16.04 you will have nvidia 361 driver by default. If you want a newer one you can use the nvidia PPA | 13:03 |
noonehere_ | hope I don't run into problems :) | 13:03 |

hateball | noonehere_: well that depends if there's bugs in the nvidia driver, then it might automagically look alright with a more recent driver | 13:04 |
noonehere_ | hateball, ah, okay | 13:05 |

hateball | As always, make backups of anything important if you are not sure about being able to recover from a failed upgrade | 13:06 |
noonehere_ | right | 13:06 |

Phryq | ok, and that's the same in other distros? like Arch or Debian? | 14:57 |
ikonia | "the back end" ? | 14:57 |
Phryq | like, if I install Virt-Manager, it will give me KVM and Libvirt? | 14:57 |
OerHeks | If i install Gufw, the backend is already there. | 14:57 |
ikonia | Phryq: how else are you going to use a gui ? if the system it interacts with is missing | 14:58 |
Pici | Some guis let you control systems running remotely though. | 14:58 |
ikonia | then it wouldn't have a depend | 14:59 |
Pici | Right. but theres no hard and fast rule that says "every gui front end must depend on the backend it supports" | 14:59 |
Phryq | I'm not saying I don't want the "back end". I'm asking if I need to install it manually | 14:59 |
ikonia | it will depend on the package and who built the package | 15:00 |
ikonia | common sense says it would install what it manages locally unless it's designed to be a standalone management application | 15:00 |
tidbits95 | hi I installed indicator-cpufreq but its not working, when booting up it gives me error it says it cant launch.. always failing to launch.. Im thinking of going back to 14.04... Im currently using 16.04.. any suggestions? | 15:01 |
Pici | ikonia: indeed | 15:01 |
Phryq | ok, so most of the time it should do everything automatically | 15:01 |
Phryq | I should just install the GUIs | 15:01 |
ikonia | it will depend on the application | 15:02 |
OerHeks | it asks yes, sudo apt install virt-manager >> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23093447/ | 15:02 |
nacc | i think virt-manager only works if libvirt is present, but doesn't necessarily install the qemu-kvm package | 15:04 |
nacc | as ikonia said, it depends :) | 15:04 |

ReScO | hey peeps | 15:12 |
tidbits95 | OerHeks_: I'll try it thanks.. by the way, I want to ask one more, Since there is now the notification of the upgrade to 16.04 from 14.04, does that mean you 14.04 is no longer supported? Does a user really have to upgrade when the user receives the upgrade notification? | 15:12 |
Phryq | ok, thanks | 15:12 |
ReScO | how can i restrict a user to be able to only run a executeable, no shell? | 15:12 |
freakyy | hi all. how can i upgrade my ubuntu gnome to ubuntu 16.10 beta 1? | 15:12 |
ReScO | literally log in, and then it opens the executable instead of a shell? | 15:12 |
tidbits95 | OerHeks_: sorry for wany wrong grammar.. | 15:12 |
OerHeks | 14.04 is supported till 23019, so no need to upgrade now. | 15:12 |
t4c0 | Could someone tell me how to port forward on a remote access to ubuntu? | 15:13 |
OerHeks | c/2019 | 15:13 |
freakyy | i want to upgrade i dont need to but i want to | 15:13 |
tidbits95 | OerHeks_: even the kernel, the original kernel (v. 3.13) | 15:13 |
freakyy | i want the latest gnome etc. | 15:13 |
freakyy | i just want the latest version | 15:13 |
OerHeks | freakyy, use the -d option ( development) and ask/support in #ubuntu+1 | 15:14 |
tidbits95 | OerHeks_: Canonical still support 3.13? | 15:14 |
andrefreitas | Hi there, I have a bare metal server with libvirt and kvm. I have upgraded from 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS. Networking is now broken. I cannot ping the LAN and the Internet. | 15:14 |
t4c0 | I have access to it via username and password | 15:14 |
OerHeks | tidbits95, 3.13 is a LTS kernel, so yes | 15:15 |
nacc | tidbits95: on 14.04, yes | 15:15 |
tidbits95 | OerHeks_: What about community-made distros like xubunt, lubuntu? Do they still support kernel 3.13 and all the stuff in their distros? | 15:15 |
OerHeks | same base, same repos.. | 15:16 |
t4c0 | could I port forward on a ftp or chrome webbrowser? | 15:16 |
OerHeks | but not all flavors (desktop) are 5 years supported | 15:16 |
tidbits95 | nacc_: ok but what about the 3.13 kernel versions installed with distros like lubuntu, xubuntu, they still support it? | 15:16 |
DArqueBishop | andrefreitas: do you have console access? You may want to make sure that the name of the network device didn't change. | 15:16 |
OerHeks | .... just answered that | 15:16 |
nacc | tidbits95: as long as the flavor itself is supported, yes (as OerHeks said) | 15:17 |
tidbits95 | nacc_: so, kernel 3.13 in all of 14.04.x versions are still alive? Is that right? | 15:17 |
nacc | tidbits95: yes, I believe that is true. Note that as of earlier this month, only 14.04.1 and 14.04.5 (I think) are supported | 15:18 |
DArqueBishop | andrefreitas: please answer in channel, not in notice. That way others can contribute if they can. | 15:19 |
nacc | and 14.04.0 of course | 15:19 |
tidbits95 | nacc_: ohh ok ok... Hey man thanks... Im thinking of downgrading heheh... | 15:19 |

Dro | + my system become too slow | 15:20 |
OerHeks | Dro, it is an update, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcode not sure it applies to your machine | 15:20 |
tidbits95 | nacc_: one really dont have to upgrade immediately to a newer release if the older release is still supported, or still running right? | 15:21 |
OerHeks | t4c0c4t, port forwarding happens in your router, see that manual | 15:21 |
Dro | OerHeks, so what should i do? my system is too slow after the upgrade | 15:21 |
nacc | tidbits95: i don't know what you mean? you upgrade when you choose to upgrade. If you want to stay supported, you upgrade before your current release goes EOL | 15:22 |
OerHeks | Dro you can *try* to install microcode, i doubt it speeds up. | 15:22 |
tidbits95 | nacc_: ALright now I understand thanks my friend | 15:23 |

t4c0 | yes | 16:15 |
tgm4883 | t4c0: ok, cause you linked a windows readme. In any case, you'll need to forward the ports on your router to your server so other people can connect to it. That is outside the scope of this channel though | 16:15 |

nacc | The[void]: sorry, nfs share and mount? can you ask it again? do you mean can you share /media over nfs? | 16:20 |
t4c0c4t | in the case of port forwarding, wouldn't the NIC still light up? | 16:20 |
The[void] | nacc that would work, It was my understanding that an NFS share needs to be mounted | 16:20 |
The[void] | i'm kind of new to this | 16:21 |

OerHeks | mrfx99, what did you do, write a partition with dd? | 17:24 |
mrfx99 | OerHeks: Yup. Used dd to zero a drive. | 17:24 |
OerHeks | if so, use bs=2048 next time :-) | 17:24 |
mrfx99 | OerHeks: So I should run dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=2048 ? | 17:25 |
OerHeks | yes, that would do, it is not a disaster to your drive, but you cannot use it untill you format properly | 17:26 |

* alkisg thinks the sector size is a property of the file system, not of the dd command... | 17:27 | |
mrfx99 | OerHeks: Would I need to format it if I want to install an OS on it? Or would installers normally take care of all that? | 17:28 |

Redbeardt | Fine on the Intel though. | 17:28 |
OerHeks | BlackHat, this is ubuntu support only | 17:28 |
mrfx99 | OerHeks: What about if I want to install windows on that drive? Don't have to format it first, right? | 17:28 |

OerHeks | Redbeardt, i own no dual gpu, maybe you can login tty32, and reverse gpu setting? | 17:32 |
OerHeks | c/tty2 | 17:32 |
Redbeardt | Yeah I've been doing that every time I try something and the login fails to display. I just jump into tty2 and do a sudo prime-select intel | 17:33 |
OerHeks | stop that dcc BlackHat, | 17:33 |
Redbeardt | and reboot | 17:33 |
Redbeardt | I don't even know what logs I ought to look at to diagnose :( | 17:34 |
bigboywithabigto | my xubuntu install sometimes randomly freezes and is unresponsive until it's hard rebooted (by holding down the power button) | 17:36 |
bigboywithabigto | does anyone know what logs I should be looking at to find out what's going on? | 17:36 |
OerHeks | Redbeardt, i read you can switch sudo prime-select intel <> sudo prime-select nvidia | 17:36 |
dimitris | bigboywithabigto: What CPU are u running? | 17:36 |
bigboywithabigto | intel i7-5500U | 17:37 |
bigboywithabigto | it's a an ASUS lappy btw | 17:37 |
Redbeardt | DerHeks, I don't understand what you mean. I have been switching to nvidia with that very command every time I try to implement a fix. That's how I activate my discrete GPU. | 17:38 |
dimitris | bigboywithabigto: Had the same issue with my thinkpad. Check this thread if your CPU is affected. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109051 | 17:38 |
Redbeardt | DerHeks, you have to log out and back in after you use prime-select, so it's not like I can sneak in with intel then switch to nvidia. | 17:38 |
ubottu | bugzilla.kernel.org bug 109051 in intel_idle "intel_idle.max_cstate=1 required on baytrail to prevent crashes" [Normal,New] | 17:38 |
Redbeardt | This optimus tech is a POS honestly and I definitely regret getting a lappy with it. | 17:39 |
OerHeks | Redbeardt, with the gui tool in systemsettengs you should be able too, i have no clue why your intel does not work proper | 17:39 |
OerHeks | i know, and feel the pain with dual gpu :-( | 17:39 |
Redbeardt | DerHeks, the intel is fine. The nvidia is not. | 17:39 |
bigboywithabigto | dimitris, thanks I'll have a look at that | 17:39 |
OerHeks | one option would be disable the 2nd totally in bios | 17:39 |
Redbeardt | DerHeks, I don't even think my BIOS has that option, but in any case that would leave me worse off given that I can't see the login screen when using the nvidia. Without the intel, right not the computer would be unusable. | 17:40 |
Redbeardt | right now* | 17:40 |
dimitris | bigboywithabigto: You could also try running "journalctl --since=today" after the crash and see the logs for any indication of what might have gone wrong. | 17:40 |
Redbeardt | I guess I'll try downgrading my driver or something.. | 17:42 |
bigboywithabigto | dimitris, thanks | 17:47 |
bigboywithabigto | the thread you linked seems to be referring to the same problem | 17:47 |
dimitris | bigboywithabigto: Yes is an ongoing issue for some time now! | 17:48 |
bigboywithabigto | I'm going to see if I can use any of the workarounds that were posted there and I'll have a look at the logs next time it freezes | 17:48 |
arubi | hello all, what's a proper way to handle "W: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com trusty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 16126D3A3E5C1192" on `apt-get update` on trusty server amd64? this happens on a fresh iso install, on a 14.04.2 container, and netinstall iso would not even begin to download the packages | 17:52 |
bigboywithabigto | dimitris, have you experienced this problem? did you find any of the workarounds satisfactory? cheers | 17:53 |
alkisg | arubi: just update it to all the latest packages | 17:53 |
arubi | alkisg, I just did dist-upgrade and reboot, it still happens on apt-get update | 17:53 |
arubi | also what would netinstall users do? only reason I even downloaded the full .iso is because netinstall wouldn't work and I thought the container was broken somehow :) | 17:55 |
Honkii | clean / update / upgrade / auto remove / clean | 17:55 |
dimitris | bigboywithabigto: I am having the exact issue with random freezes on my Thinkpad 11e laptop. I've been trying various distros and various kernels on my arch installation but all exhibit the same issue sooner or later. I am currently running kernel 4.7.2.1 and its been about 5 hrs without any lockups. | 17:55 |
arubi | Honkii, running | 17:55 |
alkisg | arubi: afaik that issue was solved in some recent apt version, and I guess it was backported to 14.04 as well... sorry I don't know more about that warning, but it shouldn't affect netinstall etc | 17:56 |
Honkii | I run ubuntu on t450s - no problems so far with locks up | 17:56 |
Honkii | arubi : reboot after also - forgot to mention that | 17:56 |
dimitris | Honkii: it only seems to affect certain CPUs (baytrail from what I've read) | 17:56 |
Honkii | ooooh yea - forgot that its atom | 17:57 |
Honkii | my bad | 17:57 |

bigboywithabigto | dimitris, good luck | 17:58 |
arubi | Honkii, that seemed to solve it. thanks. alkisg, netinstall would simply not even start downloading the release. I tried different mirrors too | 17:58 |
dimitris | bigboywithabigto: you too. | 17:58 |
bigboywithabigto | I'm a bit of a linux noob so I hope you don't mind me waiting out and seeing how you do before mucking around with anything myself :) | 17:58 |

nacc | The[void]: sorry, was afk -- i'm not sure, tbh | 18:47 |
sorin-mihai | anyone here built a datacenter from scratch using ubuntu? | 18:48 |
nacc | arubi: why would you use 14.04.2? | 18:48 |
arubi | nacc, that's the version the container came with, I was trying to upgrade | 18:49 |
arubi | I then tried netinstall for a normal vm, but then couldn't begin downloading the release | 18:50 |
nacc | arubi: well, that's sad, because 14.04.2 is no longer supported -- 14.04.0/1/5 are the options | 18:50 |
nacc | arubi: not sure what you mean by "container came with", is this on a local system? | 18:50 |
arubi | nacc, proxmox ve. it comes with some preconfigured templates | 18:51 |
nacc | i see. | 18:52 |
arubi | I figured I shouldn't invest too much thought into the container, but netinstall failing and then the same warning on a full iso install was weird, so here I am | 18:53 |
nacc | arubi: do you see this with a full iso install of a supported release? | 18:53 |
nacc | arubi: just wondering | 18:53 |
arubi | yea, just now downloaded from ubuntu.org | 18:54 |
arubi | same with the netinstall iso | 18:54 |
nacc | arubi: 14.04.5? | 18:55 |
arubi | yes, 14.04.5 amd64 server | 18:55 |
nacc | arubi: i know nothing about proxmox or what their image is, but with lxd, ubuntu:trusty works fine and emits no errors. | 18:57 |
nacc | arubi: that is, what their container image is | 18:57 |
arubi | nacc, I agree, that's why I didn't spend time on debugging the container template and went with a full VM using netinstall.iso, but that _couldn't_ even beging downloading the release because of this same warning | 18:58 |
arubi | so I figured, okay, Mossad is after me. I'll get the full .iso, nope. same warning | 18:58 |
nacc | arubi: strange, i'm not sure -- are you doing any kind of special install? | 18:59 |
arubi | only check marked ssh server | 18:59 |
arubi | well, star marked I guess | 18:59 |
nacc | arubi: hrm, not sure why that would be happening | 19:03 |

Guest696969 | Hi folks..quick sanity check please. Is it safe to assume ALL partition schemes can be erased by wiping the first sectors of a block device? For ex, suppose I dd the first 2Mb of a SATA. That would wipe any part info correct? | 19:04 |
Guest696969 | dd with /dev/zero that is. :) | 19:04 |
wsky | 2mb is too much | 19:05 |
wsky | also i'm not sure about gpt | 19:06 |
arubi | nacc, alkisg suggested that it was a known issue that was fixed, but I guess apt is set to fail on warnings for netinstall? I also guess that if I would've followed Honkii's solution for the container, it would've worked | 19:06 |
Guest696969 | wsky, I realize I could do first 512 but I threw out 2Mb just in case my understanding of today's schemes is antiquated. | 19:08 |
Guest696969 | wsky, thanks tho.. im not sure about gpt either | 19:08 |
wsky | then you probably plown the beginning of your first partition too | 19:08 |
Guest696969 | plown? | 19:11 |
wsky | plown or plowed | 19:11 |
wsky | unsure about the past form of "plow" | 19:11 |
* wsky not a native english speaker, pardon | 19:12 | |
Guest696969 | Heh ok. I'm not in a situation to do this, I was just curious if the first bytes of a block device is where part info is stored is all. | 19:12 |
Guest696969 | I might hit up reddit/r/sysadmin and ask in there | 19:12 |
wsky | well what you wiped out is the partition table | 19:12 |
Guest696969 | wsky, all good. :) | 19:12 |
Guest696969 | wsky, yes I know. | 19:12 |
wsky | and the boot sector | 19:12 |
wsky | and the begiining of your first partition | 19:12 |
wsky | so you basically broke the filesystem too | 19:13 |
wsky | :) | 19:13 |
wsky | there are much more convinient ways to wipe the partition table out | 19:13 |
FunkSt8r_ | Guest696969: testdisk can still recover the part info if that's what your trying to avoid | 19:14 |
Guest696969 | FunkSt8r_, true. I am just being theoretical.. I ran into someone who thought dding the whole device would ensure they could dd an .iso to a /dev/sdX. I told them they're wasting their time. Still, I wanted a sanity check if part info is still stored in the beginning areas of a block device. | 19:16 |
OerHeks | Guest696969, the MBR bootsector is bs=446, GPT is 64+64+128 per entry and some bytes more > https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GUID_Partition_Table | 19:16 |
OerHeks | so 1 mb will do | 19:16 |

Bashing-om | Guest696969: Curiosity satisfied: https://iam.tj/kb/pc/boot/#a_bootloader . | 19:16 |
Guest696969 | in your opinion, is that for all of today's part schemes? | 19:16 |

Cypher-Punk | Thanks nacc and Guest696969. | 19:24 |
Guest696969 | Bricker, just out of curiosity have you tried a live 16.04 to determine if it works in 16.04? If it does you might need a newer kernel(as an easy fix that is). | 19:25 |
Bricker | Guest696969 i dont have a machine for it, unfortunately i had to downgrade and use 14.04 because of a piece of software we needed on here doesnt support 16.04, so i dont know the answers. I just bought two adapters from micro center that both showed linux support according to google | 19:25 |
Bricker | i thought it would be as simple as plug n play | 19:26 |

Bricker | One is Edimax 3T3R AC1750 (Model EW-7833UAC) the other is ASUS USB-AC56 (AC1300) | 19:28 |
Bricker | ive checked additional drivers, nothing shows up | 19:28 |
Archeus_ | how to make mouse reappear ? | 19:28 |

xenialmess | how to purge pesky scopes and lenses like facebook and flickr? upon usual commands is returning unable to find... | 20:03 |

OerHeks | xenialmess, search for account-plugin | 20:08 |
xenialmess | ok. once these are purged will the lenses still remain under dash plugins? | 20:08 |
OerHeks | maybe you need to logout/login again .. | 20:09 |
OerHeks | not sure, try it? | 20:09 |
xenialmess | yeah. actually have already purged the account plugins and logged out and in and lenses still showing | 20:10 |

lee2 | I have a question about ifupdown, if someone can help my dns-nameserver isn't populating resol.conf | 20:19 |
=== josh is now known as Guest2873 | ||
jatt | why should it? | 20:23 |
OerHeks | :-) | 20:24 |
lee2 | jatt i changed my settings /etc/network/interfaces | 20:24 |
lee2 | Adding a static IP address | 20:24 |
OerHeks | lee2, that way it will be overwritten by networkmanager. | 20:25 |
akik | lee2: it should be dns-nameservers | 20:25 |
OerHeks | use networkmanager, or manually editing /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base as you would normally edit /etc/resolv.conf | 20:25 |
lee2 | akik I do have it as dns-dnsnameservers | 20:26 |
lee2 | OerHeks it says do not edit tihs file by hand -- Your changes will be overwritten | 20:28 |
lee2 | OerHeks i'm not trying to use NetworkManager | 20:31 |
lee2 | the problem i'm having I can't get DNS to resolve. But I can ping address outside of my network | 20:32 |
OerHeks | "it says do not edit tihs file by hand " is not true. | 20:32 |
OerHeks | for /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base that is | 20:33 |
OerHeks | but you mixing up the interfaces file i guess. | 20:33 |
Bashing-om | lee2: A thought : /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf . did you tell the system "you" would manage networking; ' managed=true ' ? | 20:33 |
OerHeks | that would be a solution, or removing networkmanager. | 20:34 |
lee2 | Bashing-om First it was at false, and then I set it to true, and then I set it back to false | 20:34 |
lee2 | OerHeks so your saying to edit /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file? | 20:35 |
lee2 | OerHeks2 It's ok to do that | 20:35 |
lee2 | OerHeks I still want networkmanager you should be able to have both co-exist | 20:35 |
Bashing-om | lee2: "true" says you manage networking . whereas "false" then network-manger has authority . | 20:36 |
OerHeks | why not set it in networkmanager, all this trouble for such simple task by design | 20:36 |
lee2 | Bashing-om ok. Thanks for explaining | 20:37 |
OerHeks | the /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file would be a safe way to set priority. | 20:37 |
OerHeks | * even with networkmanager AFAIK | 20:37 |
lee2 | OerHeks True, and i'm connected now by going through NetworkManager I just wanted to try the other way. And when it wasn't working, that is DNS, I was just trying to figure it out | 20:38 |
Seveas | lee2: if all you need is NetworkManager not to mess with resolv.conf, set dns=none in Netwoekranager.conf | 20:38 |
lee2 | Seveas ok, will try. Thanks | 20:38 |
lee2 | Seveas Right now it is set to dnsmasq | 20:39 |

mixxit | damn my pc is locking up every few minutes | 20:41 |

lee2 | Seveas in the /etc/network/interfaces can you set the dns to use dnsmasq? | 20:44 |
Seveas | lee2: not if you disable it in NetworkManager.conf | 20:44 |
lee2 | Seveas so what would the line look like in the etc/network/interface file? dns=dnsmasq under the gateway? | 20:45 |
anonymous | hola | 20:46 |
=== anonymous is now known as Guest24549 | ||
Seveas | lee2: no, nameserver 127.0.0.1, which NetworkManager will put there if you let it manage the file | 20:46 |
lee2 | Seveas oh ok. So nameserver 127.0.0.1 is pointing to NetworkManager? | 20:48 |
Seveas | no, that points to the dnsmasq instance managed by networkmanager | 20:48 |
lee2 | Seveas thanks | 20:48 |

inerti4 | What's happening? I'm quite new in Ubuntu and I cannot understand. | 22:36 |
nacc | inerti4: `man grub-install` says you the default target is i386-pc. But you're not running a 32-bit pc. So you need to tell grub what target to use, in your case x86_64-efi. So try, from the chroot: `grub-install --target=x86_64-efi`. | 22:36 |

TheNH813 | Is this a bug? | 22:42 |
nacc | inerti4: once you find it, you'll want to `mount <dev of efi partition, e.g., /dev/sda7> /mnt/boot/efi` then run the `grub-install --target=x86_64-efi` again | 22:42 |

jastiv | I uninstalled and reinstalled my alsa and pulse and that did not work either. | 23:24 |
jastiv | I wish I knew what I did that messed it up. | 23:24 |
nacc | inerti4: ok, run grub-install from w/in the chroot then | 23:25 |
jastiv | maybe the google hangouts QArecord or cheese, thats all the recent stuff I installed, what | 23:25 |
jastiv | I already uninstalled QArecord and Chesse, should I uninstall the google plugin, would that fix it. | 23:25 |
jastiv | ? | 23:25 |
inerti4 | Something interesting happened :) http://paste.ubuntu.com/23095493/ | 23:28 |
nacc | inerti4: that seems ... better? | 23:28 |
nacc | :) | 23:28 |
inerti4 | Really better! Did u just fix it??? :O | 23:29 |
nacc | inerti4: ok, one last thing | 23:29 |
nacc | inerti4: go back to the host, and `modprobe efivars` | 23:29 |
nacc | inerti4: then return to chroot and run the `grub-install` one last time | 23:29 |
inerti4 | back to the host? | 23:29 |
nacc | inerti4: back to the non-chroot, sorry | 23:29 |
inerti4 | same results | 23:31 |
nacc | inerti4: lsmod | grep efivars ? | 23:31 |
inerti4 | Same result... | 23:32 |
nacc | inerti4: huh? that's a command to run | 23:34 |
nacc | inerti4: what did it output | 23:34 |
inerti4 | nothing... | 23:34 |
nacc | inerti4: ok, that's probably an issue, let me think | 23:37 |
nacc | inerti4: this is 16.04? | 23:37 |
inerti4 | yeap...but the live cd that I m running is 14.04 | 23:38 |
OerHeks | get the latest then http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-16.04-desktop-amd64.iso | 23:39 |
OerHeks | oh wait, http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04.1/ubuntu-16.04-desktop-amd64.iso | 23:40 |
inerti4 | OerHeks: and how is the newest contribution help me to restore grub? | 23:41 |
inerti4 | *will | 23:41 |
OerHeks | as your system seems to be 16.04 with systemD, i would not use 14.04 | 23:41 |
nacc | inerti4: can you do this, `efibootmgr` from the chroot, or non-chroot env? | 23:41 |
inerti4 | efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system. | 23:42 |
nacc | inerti4: ok, and ls -ahl /sys/firmware/efi ? | 23:42 |
tgm4883 | OerHeks: Don't you mean http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04.1/ubuntu-16.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso | 23:42 |
wiggmpk | I would like to resize a window that is intentionally off screen without the screen snapping back to the top menu bar (using gnome-shell) anyone know how to disable this behavior? | 23:43 |
tgm4883 | or are those the same file | 23:43 |
inerti4 | ls: cannot access '/sys/firmware/efi': No such file or directory | 23:43 |
OerHeks | tgm4883, nope, i was surprised too http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04.1/ | 23:43 |
mattfly_ | hello | 23:44 |
mattfly_ | i need some weird help | 23:44 |
OerHeks | tgm4883, oh wait, i need to scroll down .. awesome | 23:44 |
nacc | inerti4: i'm worried you've booted the USB in legacy mode (non-UEFI) | 23:44 |
mattfly_ | i need to make port fowarding in a linux machine to a server using hostapd | 23:44 |
tgm4883 | OerHeks: yea :/ | 23:44 |
nacc | inerti4: in which case, i don't think you can successfully tell grub to use efi | 23:45 |
mattfly_ | i mean, port foward hostapd[ | 23:45 |
inerti4 | I cannot boot the usb from UEFI | 23:45 |
OerHeks | should we notify this? | 23:45 |
inerti4 | if I could I will have used the boot-repair | 23:45 |
Keitaro | anyone here plz i need some help | 23:47 |
Keitaro | i did sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 nvidia-prime mesa-utils because my system use optimus | 23:48 |
Keitaro | and after it say need to give a password and unable secureboot | 23:48 |
tgm4883 | OerHeks: it's probably by design | 23:49 |
tgm4883 | wouldn't hurt to ask though | 23:49 |
Keitaro | and when i restart and go to the login i wrote my password it give a blackscreen and loopup to the login page | 23:49 |
Bashing-om | Keitaro: Why the 331 version driver attempt ? ... What card are you working with ? | 23:50 |
Keitaro | Bashing-om, i am on a nvidia GTX 950 M | 23:52 |
Keitaro | i don't know i see that command on the french ubuntu documentation | 23:52 |
Keitaro | here https://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/prime | 23:53 |
nacc | inerti4: hrm, that's ... a tricky situation | 23:53 |
nacc | inerti4: how did you install via UEFI before? | 23:53 |
Keitaro | Bashing-om, i got infinite loop when i try login ^^ | 23:54 |
Bashing-om | Keitaro: nVidia recmmends the 367 version driver : http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/106780/en-us . | 23:55 |
inerti4 | I access the live usb from legacy mode... | 23:55 |
Bashing-om | !info nvidia-364 | 23:55 |
ubottu | Package nvidia-364 does not exist in xenial | 23:55 |
Bashing-om | !info nvidia-361 | 23:56 |
ubottu | nvidia-361 (source: nvidia-graphics-drivers-361): NVIDIA binary driver - version 361.42. In component restricted, is optional. Version 361.42-0ubuntu2 (xenial), package size 37848 kB, installed size 163365 kB (Only available for i386; amd64; armhf) | 23:56 |
nacc | inerti4: that's how you installed it before? legacy live usb? | 23:57 |
nacc | inerti4: it's odd because your grub on-disk is only installed in efi mode | 23:57 |
nacc | inerti4: based upon your previous pastes | 23:57 |
Bashing-om | Keitaro: If ya want to install that recommeded driver. we will have to do so from a PPA . | 23:58 |
amnix | My SSD won't boot ubuntu! Please someone help. This is driving me insane... | 23:58 |
inerti4 | Yeap....But the only way to access the usb from boot menu is on legacy mode... | 23:58 |
Keitaro | ah ? | 23:58 |
inerti4 | @amnix welcome to my world... | 23:59 |
amnix | how can I check if grub was installed proper for efi boot? | 23:59 |
Keitaro | because on the tutorial with optimus it said not install the driver that is no open | 23:59 |
inerti4 | amnix first try boot-repair... | 23:59 |
Keitaro | http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/106780/en-us this driver is for gtx 950 M ? i don't see my card in the list | 23:59 |
