naccCapum321: i don't believe gnupg-shell is in the repositories, but http://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/11254/gnupg-aware-gui-to-encrypt-decrypt-pgp-ascii-on-linux has some recommendations00:02
naccCapum321: no idea what you're trying to do specifically, so that's about all i can do to help00:02
Capum321i have a .rtf file and would like to encrypt it individually.00:05
energizerAnytime I press Alt-f it make the file menu appear in the application I'm using. Can I disable this?00:05
energizerSpecifically annoying in Atom, but I'd like to disable it globally.00:06
Capum321most applications will occur this energizer00:06
energizerCapum321: i can't seem to disable it00:07
naccenergizer: i guess you could bind the combo to something else? but that's pretty application specific00:07
Capum321yeah00:07
naccCapum321: but you need a gui to do so?00:07
energizerThere's no global thing doing this keyboard shortcut?00:07
Capum321hmm, i guess no00:07
Capum321if it's encrypt/decrypt on the fly, most welcomed00:08
energizerThe reason I suspect there is a global shortcut, is that Atom has a keyboard shortcut resolver that tells you what shortcut your using, and when I press Alt-f, it just says I'm pressing alt.00:09
energizerWhich suggests it's being captured before it gets to atom.00:09
naccCapum321: i mean, `gpg --encrypt ...` with possibly other options?00:10
Capum321can't tell, never used.00:10
naccenergizer: no, alt+f is specific to the window you're in, really. it's typically the file menu, but some applications (e.g. terminal) let you disable alt-menus, some don't00:11
Capum321nacc, i just type gpg on terminal and it's waiting for me input a message?00:12
naccCapum321: you should read `man gpg` (or probably `man gpg2`)00:13

dumle29Hey there. I need a tip on how to migrate my psql database from one server to a new one.00:15
dumle29Now, so far I know I want to run this command: pg_dump -C dbname | ssh -C remoteuser@remotehost "psql dbname"00:15
dumle29however the trouble is, I need to do this as the user postgresql, on both ends, and this user has no shell nor any password00:16
lavr_hello00:16
naccdumle29: you may want to ask in #ubuntu-server; but also is there a reason you want to pipe your database dump? that seems overly complicated to me. Do the dump first, scp it over, etc.00:16
naccdumle29: but also, i think you're supposed to use pg_dump -h (to specify the hostname) on both ends normally00:17
dumle29idealy I'd want to do something like: pg_dump -C dbname | ssh -C root@remotehost "su -s /bin/bash"  and then"psql dbname"00:17
Capum321nacc, it will encrypt what message i type?00:17
dumle29nacc: This was a line I found in stack exchange, it's for sending it compressed00:17
naccdumle29: so you'd do `pg_dump -C -h localhost -U localuser dbname | psql -h remotehost -U remoteuser dbname`00:18
dumle29nacc: problem is I can't login to remote host with the user I want to log in as00:18
dumle29no shell or password for that user00:18
dumle29I guess the intermediate file is the easiest00:18
naccdumle29: psql shouldn't be using shell or password00:18
dumle29nacc: SSH does00:18
dumle29but I see what you mean. Connect to the database remotely. I don't think my servers are set up for that :/00:19
naccdumle29: yeah it just seems circuitous to use ssh, but i'm also not an expert on the topic00:19
dumle29nacc: The database isn't open to external IPs00:19
naccCapum321: have you read the man page?00:19
naccdumle29: ah00:19
dumle29thanks for the help though :) Gotta close my IRC bouncer before I dump the DB00:20
naccdumle29: i think the simplest way is to use pg_dump, scp and then psql -f00:20

ScientomancerHi guys, I'm trying to get a multimonitor set up going in Kubuntu. I have the nvidia drivers installed. Neither nvidia-settings nor KDE's display settings have managed to solve my problem, which is this: I have three monitors: one built-in to my laptop, two connected via display port. I wish to arrange the laptop's display (1920x1080) underneath the other two displays (both 2560x1440), so that it is sitting at +1600+1440.02:00
ScientomancerWhat I get is all three arranged side by side, with the laptop's display being the right-most. I have made a change to the metamode in my xorg.conf, but that didn't have any effect.02:01

IdleTuesMy external HD won't be read after unplugged from friends' PC - ubuntu reads as unallocated; how can i recover?02:05
tatertotsgood evening, i've installed 16.04 and all is well until i open additional driver and install the proprietary nvidia drivers and reboot, after i log in the screen is black, i installed gnome-shell to rule out lightdm and set gnome-shell and default display manager and it also leaves me with black screen02:06
cynicistGuy1524, what do you mean?02:06
Guy1524cynicist: there are no boxes around my icons02:07
Guy1524I haven't changed any themes or stuff02:07
IdleTuestry looking up commandlines to use nvidia drivers instead of the default drivers tatertots02:07
Scientomancertatertots, I have the same problem. I am able to temporarily work around it by booting in recovery mode.02:07
IdleTuesthey might be confliciting with each other02:07
cynicistGuy1524, well that's bizarre then. I assumed you did change your theme.02:08
Guy1524ya, I kind of like it lol, wish I could keep it02:08
cynicistGuy1524, is anything broken?02:08
Guy1524nope02:08

tatertotshas anyone been able to load proprietary nvidia drivers in 16.04 without issue?02:10
IdleTuesi have but i've installed those drivers a long time ago02:10
IdleTuesand basically i had to command line to use nvidia drivers and stop the default intel driver02:10
IdleTuesit was several years ago though so you'd have to google02:11
cynicistGuy1524, you could try resetting Unity through unity-tweak-tool02:11
IdleTuesMy external HD won't be read after unplugged from friends' PC - ubuntu and windows reads as unallocated; how can i recover?02:11
tatertotsthe system i'm using is older it doesn't have a gpu on the CPU die02:11
tatertotslike the more modern sytems do02:11
Guy1524cynicist: ya, if I logged in and out again or restarted lightdm, that would probably do the trick, Ill keep it this way as long as I can though02:11
tatertotssounds like IdleTues has a gpu on the cpu die AND a discrete nvidia gpu02:12
IdleTuesprobably02:12
cynicisttatertots, you probably need to run 'nvidia-xconfig' to get a proper xorg.conf02:12

IdleTuesmy hands sweat every time i acknowledge that02:14
tatertotsok i'm going to reinstall fresh, load the proprietary nvidia driver and use nvidia-xconfig immediately after the proprietary dirver install before i even reboot or restart x02:15
cynicistIdleTues, have you tried running 'ntfsfix' on it?02:15
cynicisttatertots, you don't have to reinstall02:15
tatertotssee if that does anything02:16
IdleTueshaven't heard of that one02:16
IdleTuesbut the big issue is that i think the partition table is broken02:16
IdleTuesso it might not be a terrible issue at all02:16
IdleTuesi've been able to turn a primary parition that i formatted to swap back in to fat32 and recovered everything02:16
IdleTuesbut erm... ntfs is different02:16
tatertotsit only take a bit i'm installing from liveusb and i have a solid state drive so no big deal02:16
IdleTuesalso it only reads on diagnostic programs like Disks02:17
IdleTuesnot gparted, not command line02:17
cynicisttatertots, ok good luck. That should be the problem imo.02:17

OximinuShad somedy tried to replace openjdk with oracle's jdk03:33
OximinuS?03:33
OximinuSi firstly removed openjdk* packages03:34
OximinuSand after that i tried to install jdk9 from oracles site, and the jdk8 included in android studio, but both failed saiying that there was trying to overwrite a file that was part of another package03:36
OximinuSthe other package was openjdk9-headless wich i have removed a hundred times03:37

OximinuSTheNH813: yes03:40
TheNH813Which file? I can check which package it's from.03:40

TheNH813*package03:41
TheNH813Try using: sudo dpkg -S /path/to/file03:42
TheNH813It'l mention whcih package it belongs to03:42
OximinuSbtw, is any major diference between oracles and open jdk?03:44
TheNH813Oracle's Java is sometimes needed for certian software. Especially legacy java apps. Otherwise, they work fine for most java based software and games.03:45
OximinuSthe only reason im switching it's because android studio requires it03:45
TheNH813I don't see why Android Studio should need Oracle Java it besides it being a requirement for whatever reason they decided to pick.03:46
TheNH813I personally see no performance difference between the two for something like.... say Minecraft for example.03:47

caliculkI have a bit of a package issue. I installed kubuntu-desktop on top of Ubuntu, and am not met with issues when trying to use apt-get. Mainly package dependency issues. However, there is no way for me to negate them. If I try to remove kubuntu-desktop I am still met with the same issue.04:52
caliculkMainly this: "kde-telepathy-minimal : Depends: kde-config-telepathy-accounts (>= 15.04.0) but it is not going to be installed. E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).04:52

tschfHi Folks... I have Tomcat installed, but I want to wait until a database service (oracle-xe) is up and running before starting Tomcat.. On CentOS, tomcat is a service file so I added `oracle-xe.service` to the After option in the unit specification. On Ubuntu, Tomcat is a sysvinit script - but the system uses systemd (16.04). Is there a good approach here?05:09

rcmainak"WARNING: Security updates for your current Hardware Enablement Stack ended on 2016-08-04: *http://wiki.ubuntu.com/1404_HWE_EOL"05:18

michaelroseyour link is badly formatted05:19
j4hello world05:20
rcmainakmichaelrose, that's what the popup says. It's not my link to be honest. Anyway, do you know the solution & how to approach it?05:22
michaelrosethe problem is the way you posted it makes the final " part of the link05:23
michaelroseits your posting not the link that is problematic05:23
=== alokj is now known as Guest23932
michaelroseit seems to be saying that if you want to receive updates and remain on ubuntu 14.04.5 the latest version of 14.04 lts you must install the newer HWE package which is presumably consists of kernel + gpu drivers + related packages05:25
rcmainakyeah, sorry for that. didn't noticed the last " will messup the link lol05:25
michaelroseunfortunately because amd gpus have historically been a terrible choice some people will have to use the open source amd gpu driver and deal with crummy gpu performance relative to the binary drivers on even slightly old hardware05:26
rcmainakcan I safely get rid of HWE stack? without affecting anything if possible05:26
michaelroseI'm not really familiar with the HWE concept but I think it has to do with providing a newer kernel + gpu stuff so no05:27
rcmainakaccording to lshw the machine I'm using has "Intel(R) Pentium(R) CPU G2010 @ 2.80GHz"05:29
michaelroseis there a good reason not to install a newer hwe?05:29
Surfer2010Hello is there a ubuntu server for pictures so users can modify the exif information of the files? Most will show them and keep sql  db about tags but not save them in the exif05:30
rcmainakIt's a work computer not a personal one lol. I need to ask for permission before installing or removing anything05:30
rcmainakmichaelrose, is there any reason to use HWE stack on that CPU?05:33
rcmainakI want to remove anything that doesn't update my kernel05:34
michaelroseI thought HWE was basically newer kernels on older releases05:35
JAWCrcmainak, HWE is basically newer kernel and (for desktop) X server. If there's any security issues with the ken. Recommend backing up before upgrading (my Debian home server didn't boot with a backported kernel and restoring from backup was quicker option).05:36
rcmainakhuh, thank you. I should probably ask for a complete upgrade to 16.0405:37
JAWCAnd that is probably why I should enable CTRL+enter for sending. s/ken./kernel, I don't think it'll get updates after support for that HWE ends./05:37
michaelrosewhy would you need to restore from backup?05:37
michaelrosecouldn't you add an additional kernel and pick which one to boot from?05:38
JAWCmichaelrose, because restoring took less than a minute and working out how to fix the problem would've taken me a long time.05:39
michaelrosefirst of all there is no way on earth that restoring the filesystem from backup took less time than rebooting05:39
rcmainakI don't need care about backup cause I'm using git on a server lol05:39
rcmainakI mean everything is already backed up there05:40
michaelroselogically after you restore from back up you still have to reboot05:40
kishanHiiii05:47
kishanHi Sir How are you05:48

SajaCan anyone give me the right solution?06:10
OerHeksmgb, what do you call 'buggy' then? can you explain?06:10
OerHeksSaja, hold shift @ boot to enter grubmenu06:11
mgbOerHeks, right now it randomly decides to change my desktop to a pink purple screen06:11
mgbit's not convenient to constantly restart the desktop.06:11
mgbi need it black so it doesn't distract me06:11
OerHeksmgb, on what machine/specs? without proper info this sounds more like a hw issue to me06:12
JAWCmichaelrose, I actually have backup /boot, /usr, and / (excl. /opt, /var, /root, /home) partitions on a second disk in my home server, so unbootable just meant choosing a different boot option in grub if completely broken. The issue (I think) was something went wrong (possibly PEBKAC) and I somehow managed to break the Ethernet driver module for all kernels in /boot.06:13
SajaHi...OerHeks........I already try "Left Shift Hold Procedure"......but still can't find Ubuntu.06:15
OerHeksSaja, is this a machine with UEFI bios?06:15
mgbOerHeks, it's not a hardware issue06:16
mgbOerHeks, i can keep using the desktop with a pink wallpaper (i dont want that)06:16
JAWCmgb, In system settings -> appearance, change to a wallpaper that doesn't have the clock icon (clock icon = wallpaper 'Changes throughout the day').06:17
SajaI have limited knowledge about computer..........At BIOS I found that with "Legacy", I think.06:17
SajaWhat is that?06:17
OerHeksSaja, with uefi, you need to do some steps to get a signed boot, see the uefi manual06:17

Sajathanks all.09:23
prestincould anyone explain me why my default "ip route" vanishes by a reboot?09:28
joelioprestin: if you're defining a static route via cli, the it's not stateless and won't persist across reboots. If it's a specific static route you're adding. you need to add to the interface in a post-up command.09:31
prestinjoelio well, I installed openVPN which uses the default route, I also had to add a tunnel obviously, and somehow, the default route was gone while the tunnel was still there :\09:32
joelioif it's literally a default gw for an interface, you specifiy it in the static config.. otherwise it comes via dhcp obv09:32
joelioopenvpn generally has options to push routes09:32
prestinalright, so next time i need to add it to the static config file right?09:33

ZeekHuge_It might sound weird, but even when I do nothing with my cd drive, I am able to sense that there is some motion inside it . any idea whats happening ?09:54
ZeekHuge_ITs ubuntu14.0409:54
sebsebsebZeekHuge_: , motion as in a noise ?09:56
sebsebsebZeekHuge_: a movement noise ?09:57
sebsebsebor liek a part of it inside is ?09:57
Jakey2Can someone help me setup static ip on a privallaged lxc container?09:58
ZeekHuge_sebsebseb: yes .. somewhat like noise. Its similar to the sound made when I eject and close the drive.10:00
sebsebsebZeekHuge_: could be a failing drive or starting to fill or not quite work right hardware issue yes10:01
sebsebsebZeekHuge_: but do you have Windows or some other OS on that machine as well, you could  load that up and see if get the same issue there or not10:01
sebsebsebif so then yes indeed hardware issue I guess10:01
SajaI have installed Virtualbox at Ubuntu but can't run the IOU file IOU_v22_UD-disk1.vmdk ............can anyone help me?10:02
sebsebsebZeekHuge_: also 14.04 is the old LTS version now still supported for a bit or so longer, but  16.04.1 is out now.  so LTS to LTS upgrades are available now10:02
sebsebsebSaja: yes possibly10:02
sebsebsebSaja: first of all vmdk is for VMware not really Virtualbox, however Virtualbox does have support for vmdk as welll10:02
sebsebsebSaja: in the old days with VMware player and server for example, to load up a vmdk  in those needed also a vmx file, I don't know about now, and I don't know if the vmx file would then also apply to Virtualbox if using vmdk files10:03
Sajauh10:03
sebsebsebalso what is that vmdk altough that;s not so relivent10:03
sebsebsebSaja: Virtaulbox by default uses vhd  files.   virutalbox own format that's good and works great  with it ::)10:03
ZeekHuge_sebsebseb: Ah no.. I just have ubuntu. I installed 16.04 and wasnt able to setup optimus support on it (that NVIDIA graphics card). Guess it will be easy now with the noveau driver ?10:03
sebsebsebZeekHuge_: not sure about optiums, etc, but yes would be worth a try10:04
sebsebsebSaja: generally just use the default vhd viritualbox format, however what is your vmdk ?10:04
ZeekHuge_sebsebseb: Can I revert back from 16.04 to 14.04 ?10:05
Sajahm....understand10:05
=== ZeekHuge_ is now known as ZeekHuge
sebsebsebZeekHuge_: no downgrading is not offically supported and doing so may break your system etc10:05
sebsebsebtrying to do so I mean10:05
sebsebseb!downgrade10:05
ubottuAttempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported and may break your system.10:05
sebsebsebZeekHuge: it would be possible though, but see above10:05
sebsebsebZeekHuge: I expect it to be possible but see above10:06
sebsebsebin the future when btfs actsaully becomes the default file format and with snapshots, then sure no probelm down gradng, just use a previous snapshot, but untill then, nope.  or maybe sun's/oracales zfs  which I thinik has snapshots to, but  that one well even having that supported in Linux is a bit hmm since how it's liscensed10:06
sebsebsebfile system above not formats10:07
SajaSo....whais is the suggestion for me?10:07
sebsebsebZeekHuge: noveeous has improved well it does improve, even Nvida support it partly as well now10:08
sebsebsebnot sure it's curent state10:08
ZeekHugesebsebseb: Then probably I'll try to install 16.04 alongside of 14.04 and see if the optimus setup works or not.10:08
sebsebsebnot using machines or devices with Nvidia currently myself10:08
sebsebseb!optimus10:08
ubottuUbuntu uses nvidia-prime to support optimus videocards.10:08
sebsebsebZeekHuge: hmm ^10:08
sebsebsebwhat the bot put10:08
sebsebsebhmm10:08
ZeekHugethats old info ?10:08
SajaI must run the IOU_v22_UD-disk1 file...........is there any alternate file for Ubuntu supported virtualbox.10:08

hateballZeekHuge: if you have a recent nvidia card you may benefit from using the nvidia !ppa, for a later driver than is shipped with 16.0410:13
SajaNow I am using Ubuntu 16.04 ....... I installed virtual box from terminal ....Virtual Graphical User Interface Version 5.0.24_Ubuntu r108355 .... on that I try to run IOU_v22_UD-disk1.vmdk10:13
sebsebsebSaja: yes ok, but what is the IOU_v22_ud-disk1  what's that for ?10:14
ZeekHugehateball: and what is meant by "recent" ?10:14
Sajauh....may be iNetworkExperts topology for CCIE10:15
k1l_Saja: you have a #virtualbox issue (since you dont know how to use virtualbox) and not a ubuntu issue.10:15
Sajayes10:15
hateballZeekHuge: 5xx gtx and upwards10:15
bazhang#vbox it is10:15
k1l_Saja: look for a howto how to use a vmdk with virtualbox. like http://techathlon.com/how-to-run-a-vmdk-file-in-oracle-virtualbox/10:15
bazhangSaja, #vbox10:15
sebsebsebSaja: not sure what any of that is for,  but yeah k11  and bazhang have a point, you should try #virtualbox really10:15
bazhangthats not the correct channel sebsebseb10:16
sebsebsebSaja: #vbox10:16
ZeekHugeI used bumblebee earlier and use to keep the card off. With nouveau, its probably on and being used and therefore causes heating.10:16
Sajathat is my task...and I have to complete the few contain of that file.10:17
MarcoMarcaccinihi, when I'm in recovery I get AICP Errot: method reached maximum rentrancy limit (255) . As you can imagine my pc is a laptop and this error happens only whrn it charges the battery10:17
hateballZeekHuge: if you install the proprietary driver and nvidia-prime + nvidia-settings you can pick the active card. Not sure nouveau supports that10:17
k1l_ZeekHuge: bumblebee is deprecated on ubuntu. use the nvidia driver which ships nvidia-prime on ubuntu10:18
ZeekHugehateball: okay so lshw shows that its GF108M [NVS 5400M], so i guess its the recent one . right ?10:18
SajaSo I should leave #Ubuntu and join # virtualbox.........correct?10:18
niko:2210:18
sebsebsebSaja: no  join #vbox10:19
sebsebsebSaja: I gave wrong channel10:19

ThePendulum'lo10:20
ThePendulumI ran out of internet and I'm trying to set a static IP for my primary network interface (enp3s0) in Ubuntu 15.10. I expected the interface to be defined in /etc/network/interfaces, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Should it be? If not, where else do I configure it?10:21
hateballThePendulum: using network-manager, nmcli if you are using commandline10:22
k1l_ThePendulum: 15.10 is dead already. better plan to upgrade that box after it got internet again10:23
ThePendulumif I could actually get dual screen to work in 16.04 I would've been on it in march10:23
k1l_ThePendulum: if its not managed in the interfaces file the networkmanager will handle the device.10:23
thiras!help10:24
ubottuPlease don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience10:24
ThePendulumwell that was what I wanted to ask tbh10:24
ZeekHugehateball: okay so basically to get the proprietary drivers, which might support it well, I need to first blacklist nouveau. then uninstall all nvidia* and bumblebee. Further then choose Nvidia's latest driver version in software&updates->Additional drivers10:25
ZeekHugeright ?10:25
hateballZeekHuge: if you use the ppa, or even the default additional drivers, it will blacklist nouveau automatically10:25
cengoohey10:25
ZeekHugehateball: sure ? I think I had some nvidia packages installed earlier and at the time of login, screen use to turn black for a long time and then used to get restored back. probably some race condition ?not sure though. Anyway .. i''ll try10:29
ZeekHugealso using it from additional driver is == to adding PPA right ?10:29
hateballZeekHuge: well if you have proprietary drivers installed that dont properly support your card you may end up with a blank screen10:29
hateballZeekHuge: no the "normal" additional driver fetches up to 361, the ppa has later versions10:30
rockyhhi!10:31
hateballZeekHuge: if you are feeling daring: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-370 nvidia-prime nvidia-settings10:32
BluesKajHiyas all10:32
ZeekHugehateball: haha ! yes .. I am always feeling daring ! :)10:32
hateballZeekHuge: and then reboot to use the new driver. If you end up with a black screen you can boot to recovery or us !nomodeset to revert it10:32

ZeekHugehateball: I didnt switch to tty1 this time. It just worked in the normal way.11:39
hateballZeekHuge: but using nomodeset, yes?11:40
hateballZeekHuge: you could try using "nvidia-drm.modeset=1" instead of nomodeset, see if that works11:40
ZeekHugeyes . does that make it different ?11:40
ZeekHugeusing !nomodeset11:40

k1l_but that is not the reason why its not starting properly.16:15
captainACEthanks nicomachus16:15
captainACEwhat is the other problem k1l16:15
k1l_the surface tablets have some strange microsoft-only setups like 32bit uefi and such and need some manual work before any other OS runs there16:16
slamd64hello anyone here using dwm? is there any package that instals Xft.h library because I can't find it.16:16

FZRBOT/wtf16:16
captainACE?lol16:16
MishariI found something hilarious in ubuntu, I can exploring files using the firefox !16:16
k1l_captainACE: i dont know why your ubuntu is not starting properly. look at syslog what is hapening when you try to boot the regular grub entry16:17
captainACEwut m8?16:17
captainACEok k1l16:17
Picislamd64: theres libxft-dev16:17
k1l_captainACE: FZRBOT keep it focused on technical support in here. thanks16:17
slamd64Pici: thanks I will check it16:17
captainACEk1l i cant even start grub it just goes to sleep when i boot normally16:17
k1l_captainACE: that doesnt really make sense. how are you booting ubuntu then?16:18
captainACEfrom recover mode,and then i resume normal boot,as i said before16:18
k1l_so you see grub16:18
captainACEyeah16:18
AntonioRibeiroI'm having those "Hash Sum mismatch" every time I try to aṕg-get update, looks like the problem is related to my region, but is there a way to fix this?16:18
captainACEbut not when i start ubuntu normally16:19
nicomachusok, well I did new clean pair with the speaker and now it says it's connected, but no audio. Not even the Test works.16:19
captainACEit just geos to sleep16:19
k1l_captainACE: that doesnt make sense16:19
captainACEill explain it to you,gimme  aminute16:19
k1l_captainACE: either you see grub or you dont see grub. keep in mind that grub doesnt show up automatically when there is only one OS installed. it just boots the latest ubuntu entry.16:19
captainACEk1l_ see,when i start my pc ,i can see the partiotion screen,where there are 5-6 options one is the ubuntu OS,and other is recovery menu along wih other stuff,when i boot normally(select ubuntu) it starts and my monitor goes to sleep,but when i choose recover,it shows all the gibberish text(is that grub idk)and after that all the options,i select resume normal bott and then gibberish appears again and voila im in ubuntu16:21
captainACEis grub the gibberish text on the screen that appears during boot? idk sorry if i am an ultra noob16:23
captainACEim sucha noob16:23
jak2000http://mirror.pnl.gov/release/14.04.4   not found16:23
k1l_captainACE: ok, grub is only the menu you see first. press "e" there, then remove the "quiet splash" from the kernel line. then press the keycombo to start that modified entry. you should see the kernel log now on the screen16:23
k1l_jak2000: 14.04.5 is the latest 14.04 release16:23
captainACEill try it and tell you,thanks again brb16:24
k1l_jak2000: but that mirror doesnt work at all for me16:24
AntonioRibeiroI'm having those "Hash Sum mismatch" every time I try to aṕg-get update, looks like the problem is related to my region, but is there a way to fix this? Added mirrors to sources, but it doesn't help16:24

OptiprismHey I'm thinking of putting Ubuntu on a ssd, does ubuntu support SSDs as well as windows?16:47
XXXOPTICWASTEMANyeah sure why not post it on reddit.com/r/linux/16:47
OptiprismOr will my SSD quickly fail because of the write operations?16:47
sleepypixelsOptiprism: Ubuntu does support SSDs. You don't need to worry about wearing out the drive though.16:48
SwedeMikeOptiprism: I recommend to use "relatime" in fstab, apart from that things should work just fine.16:48
nicomachusOptiprism: Ubuntu runs just fine on an SSD. Probably even better than Windows. You'll boot in like, 5 secs.16:48
nicomachusdon't blink.16:48
XXXOPTICWASTEMANim not sure mate im using linux on a crappy old machine running on a intel atom cpu. im using it just for testing os but i have windows 10 machine aswell16:48

rifhelooo17:08
rifanyone here17:09
captainACEtbhh i dont know what a linux rescue cd is , i myself installed it from live usb,you should use recovery mode,if you have some OS related problems,else if you messed up big time,try the tool i mentiones17:09
captainACEhi rif17:09
OerHeksBadApe, depends what you call broken, normally one uses the live iso to fix stuff17:09
captainACEOerHeks is right17:09
OerHeksor maybe booting in recoverymode can be enough.17:10
captainACEyeah,like if you have broken packages or something17:10
OerHeksBadApe, so what exactly is your issue?17:10
BadApeOerHeks, so my friend has a broken box, it boots to a console login, but has no idea what his login is as someone who set it up create an auto login17:13
OerHeksBadApe, unless he has an encrypted home, it is easy to reset the password.17:14

hdonhi all :) i modified /etc/security/limits.conf and added "mysql soft nofile 4096" but when i do "sudo -u mysql sh -c 'ulimit -Sn'" # i still get 102417:33
ioriaomaha, i'd go with .xinitrc17:34
hdoni'm not sure when these rules are evaluated... do i have to drop down to a lower runlevel?17:34
genii!runlevels17:35
ubottuIn Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab.17:35
omahaioria, .xinitrc is run *after* the window environment is started, right? i want to replace the window environment17:35
omahaall the documentation i see online points to creating custom sessions in /usr/share/xsession to accomplish that17:36
geniiHm, that needs updating17:36
hdonoh, right. thanks for that, genii.17:36

k1l_hellyeah: usually you dont need /boot these days. except some lvm,raid or encryption setups.18:15
OerHeksSonicPenguin, open AMDgpu is for the latest cards, open radeon for the older ones, no need to hold upgrading18:15

ubuntu064any recommendations for configuring ubuntu 16.04 runing on ssd?18:41
daxit's fine out of the box18:42
daxdon't bother with swap if you don't need it and really really care about writes i guess18:43
compdocubuntu064, just let the installer do its thing, but you can shrink the main partition a little afterwards. the unused space is suppose to help the drive last longer. Also, make sure AHCI is enabled18:43
ubuntu064@dax what about swapinessand setting up trimming?18:45
k1l_ubuntu064: ubuntu supports trim out of the box for ssds18:46
daxi wouldn't bother with swappiness. it's 2016. ssds handle writes to swap fine18:46
daxand if you don't need swap, just remove it completely18:46
ubuntu064what about noatime in fstab - by default the installer does not set this up?18:48
daxlinux has defaulted to relatime for years18:49
OerHeksno need for noatime, ssds today don't wear out like the first series.18:49
daxrelatime is noatime except it still writes atime in some cases for compatibility, but it's not enough to matter for ssds18:49
daxplus what OerHeks said18:49
daxyou seriously don't need to do anything special18:50
daxdespite what the piles and piles of blogspam online will tell you18:50
ubuntu064ok guys then looks like I'm fine with default18:50
k1l_ubuntu064: todays ssds last as long as regular hdds with normal usage.18:50
dax(with TRIM set up, which it is)18:50
OerHekseven my 5 year old  60gb ADATA ssd still works fine, i bought a new one because i want 256 gb.18:50
k1l_if you zero your full ssd on a daily basis, that is going to make an issue. but still even hdds tend to fail out of the blue.18:51
OerHeksgo for it :-)18:51
ubuntu064probably repeating this question - twould be really useful to have article about ssd's on Ubuntu official wiki18:52
ubuntu064and yeah pile of online articles that are just waste of time18:53
k1l_well, the first ssds were rubbish. but that is where all the panic and myths still comes from. like people still think 64bit OS is not to be used with <4GB systems or that swap needs to be 2 times ram :/18:54
daxso much this ^18:54
jhutchins_wkubuntu064: There's not much relevant about ssds these days, they're just storage devices.18:58
jhutchins_wkubuntu064: Most of the stuff about them needing special tuning is obsolete.18:58
MelRayI'm trying to understand LVM. I have successfully added /dev/sdb1 to my xubuntu-vg. What I don't know is if it is necessary to designate the free space (500GB) or when I added it to the LVM if it automatically increased the overall storage capacity of the combined drives with free space?18:59
arvatexit19:00
akikMelRay: when you add the new physical volume to your volume group, it's not allocated anywhere19:00
akikMelRay: it will just increase the total capacity of that volume group19:01
MelRayakik: Thanks I'm using logical volume manager gui...so how does one allocate or resize? Does it also require giving it a mount point too?19:02
akikMelRay: you can use lvextend to increase the size of a logical volume19:02

sanitypassinghi, I have a stupid question. I'm trying to install ubuntu on a virtual machine to use as a dev environment for a class. I'm familiar with package management and such (I run Arch Linux as my primary OS), so I know how to do all that, but I can't quite figure out how to find the name ubuntu uses for a version of a package. Specifically, I'm trying to install apache 2.2.21 on the VM so that I can mirror the19:27

teknoprepioria, correct.. its been like 10 minutes19:29
teknoprepioria, dvd-rom keeps reading data every now and then19:29
ioriateknoprep,  i think it's enough... well you can try nomodeset or nouveau.blacklist=1 or nouveau.modeset=0 as kernel boot parameter ... you need to press 'tab' or 'e' and edit the line19:30

EriC^^wendico: this should cover it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#via_ChRoot , if windows does format the efi partition, the uuid would change and you'd need to add the new one to ubuntu's /etc/fstab in case windows did that19:42

apb1963_*splat*  I assume it's my disk.19:52
slicktuxapb1963_: my puter crashed also, and I chrooted to solve the problem; bad kernel config in my part.19:52
slicktuxapb1963_: ew, dd-rescue that sucka.19:53
slicktuxapb1963_: save the bits! save them while you can!19:53
apb1963_So.. the question is... can I fsck a 14.04 file system with a 12.04 OS?19:53
apb1963_is dd-resuce better than fsck?19:54
slicktuxapb1963_: fiel systems should be the same, so yerrrs.19:54
apb1963_cool19:54
apb1963_anyone else have an opinion?  Just so I have two? :)19:55
Bashing-omapb1963_: A quicky : terminal command ' sudo touch /forcefsck ' and renoot .. a light check will be run upon boot up .19:56
slicktuxapb1963_: fsck checks the file system for bad blocks, i believe. dd rescue is a data recovery util; used for when the other utilities skip over bad blocks; dd-rescue attempts to read data from those otherwise skipped blocks; which in term help with data recovery19:56
apb1963_Bashing-om: slicktux: excellent info!  Thank you!19:56
slicktuxapb1963_: dd-rescue is for when all else has failed19:56
slicktuxapb1963_: && yer doing a data recovery.19:57
apb1963_guess I stlil have a minute then.19:57
slicktuxapb1963_: gl19:57

UTAN_dev_Hey all, I'm setting remote access to my new Linux laptop. Am I correct that x11vnc is only used to mirror physical displays? (My laptop screen is only 1366x768 and I'd like to have a higher-res VNC session.)19:57
slicktuxapb1963_: hope is detrimental;19:57
slicktux;)19:57
apb1963_well... i'll find out soon enough19:57
apb1963_Bashing-om: Actually... I'm running off a different root, same system... so I can check the presumed damaged partition... how would you recommend?19:59
BluesKaj_well, this is annoying, xenial doesn't recognize my Super Top microSD card reader with a new Samsung 64GB microsdcard in the usb reader, it's listed in lsusb, but not in device notifier or in the file manager devices19:59
apb1963_Bashing-om: I was thinking to simulate it19:59
slicktuxBluesKaj_: ls /dev/sd*20:00
apb1963_Bashing-om: and go from there20:00
slicktuxBluesKaj_: might be listed there... then you mount manually20:00
slicktuxBluesKaj_: most likely /dev/sdb20:00
binary01hi all, i am running ubuntu 14.04 and i am trying to set a static ip using /etc/network/interface but now I am getting very slow or intermittent connection. does anyone know how to fix this?20:00
slicktuxBluesKaj_: heck maybe gparted might show it listed as well. . .;)20:01
slicktuxbinary01: why not set the static IP with the host rather than the client?20:02
ashu_Ashu4PIAA20:02
BluesKaj_slicktux, yeah it could be /dev/sdb, since this whole drive is sda20:02
abaldyglebinary01:  Sure the ip is not in use elsewhere on the net?20:02
slicktuxBluesKaj_: hdparm -I /dev/sdb will tell ya... becarefull with hdparm though20:02
BluesKaj_slicktux, gparted doesn't show it at all20:03
slicktuxBluesKaj_: ya shure? you click the drop down menue?20:03
BluesKaj_slicktux, ls /dev/sd* lists a /dev/sdb20:03
sanitypassingokay, so the version of apache (2.2.21) isn't availble in trusty repos. What do I need to do to be able to install it? Enable a different releases repos? If so, is that a horrible idea and there is a better method I should use?20:03
slicktuxBluesKaj_: then that might be it. try hdparm -I /dev/sdb and at the top it will tell ya20:04
binary01abadygle: yes there are no other connections using that ip20:04
BluesKaj_yeah there's no drop down, slicktux20:04
Bashing-omapb1963_: I would start at ' /forcefsck ' see what it has to say ,, and progressivly get the more aggresive as the need 'may' arise .20:04
Vad3ris there some sort of software that'll create effects for videos and stuff? sorry, noob question.20:09
PickledEggsbinary01 - output of ifconfig? as someone else asked, any reason you're not setting the static ip at the host?20:10

teknoprep2x nvidia gtx 95020:16
teknoprepnvidia drivers intalled20:16
slicktuxbinary01: to be honest I don't know; could be anything from the network services running in the router trying to associate an IP address with yer mac address and yer PC telling it no use this IP addresss.. . .only way to really know is to look at logs. . .I'm not proficient at networking, but it does make sense to set up a static with the host rather than the client.20:17

lone-geniusI need some help...im running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS...when i connect my computer to my tv via hdmi it stops saying "no signal"...but the screen appears black still...ive been to many forums and googled it and everything...they told me to install many software and yes i have been in my display menus and tried many options...i don't understand last time i hooked up it worked perfectly fine21:27
YankDownUnderlone-genius: Something to try - install "arandr" => run it when you've got the tellie plugged in, see if that allows you to configure the TV as an output device.21:28
lone-geniusalredy installed it21:29
YankDownUnderlone-genius: And you've run it whilst the tellie is plugged in...hmm?21:29
lone-geniushow do i use it???21:30
Capum321k1l_:### Set password stores used by Subversion. The order of values determines the order in which password stores are used. Valid password stores: 1.gnome-keyring  2.  gpg-agent   # password-stores = gpg-agent,gnome-keyring,kwallet . Where is stored this password?21:30
lone-geniusive been through many settings and everything???21:30
lone-geniusalso looked on google21:30
YankDownUnderlone-genius: Firstly, start the program. You should see two displays in the "window" => you can drag them to be either side by side or overlaying - or whatever...you can "right click" on a particular display and change it's function and resolution. Try that?21:33
Capum321k1l ok, it's gnome keyring21:34

lone-geniusdrivers and video cards dont change over week21:40
OerHeksmost laptops have a FN key + a row with special commands, depends on what laptop21:40
Capum321k1l it's gone now...21:41
k1l_lone-genius: maybe there was an update or there is a known bug. but if you dont want to tell it, then supporters will have to guess.21:41

Ben64you could upgrade to 16.04 though21:52
penguimI can't.. it's my company laptop21:52
k1l_penguim: you will need to get a package especially made for 14.04. and that will have to ship a lot gnome 3.18 stuff to fullfil the gedit 3.18 depencies.21:52
k1l_penguim: so maybe there is a 3.18 PPA for 14.0421:52

lone-geniusi figured it out!!!!22:02
k1l_stoopkid: well. you now have the 15.10 kernel running (4.2) which is not supported anymore. the 14.04.5 stack is the backports kernel from xenial 16.04 (4.4). you have 2 choices now: going back to the original 14.04 kernel (3.13) or use the xenial kernel (4.4)22:02
