[00:02] <nacc> Capum321: 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 recommendations
[00:02] <nacc> Capum321: no idea what you're trying to do specifically, so that's about all i can do to help
[00:05] <Capum321> i have a .rtf file and would like to encrypt it individually.
[00:05] <energizer> Anytime I press Alt-f it make the file menu appear in the application I'm using. Can I disable this?
[00:06] <energizer> Specifically annoying in Atom, but I'd like to disable it globally.
[00:06] <Capum321> most applications will occur this energizer
[00:07] <energizer> Capum321: i can't seem to disable it
[00:07] <nacc> energizer: i guess you could bind the combo to something else? but that's pretty application specific
[00:07] <Capum321> yeah
[00:07] <nacc> Capum321: but you need a gui to do so?
[00:07] <energizer> There's no global thing doing this keyboard shortcut?
[00:07] <Capum321> hmm, i guess no
[00:08] <Capum321> if it's encrypt/decrypt on the fly, most welcomed
[00:09] <energizer> The 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] <energizer> Which suggests it's being captured before it gets to atom.
[00:10] <nacc> Capum321: i mean, `gpg --encrypt ...` with possibly other options?
[00:10] <Capum321> can't tell, never used.
[00:11] <nacc> energizer: 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't
[00:12] <Capum321> nacc, i just type gpg on terminal and it's waiting for me input a message?
[00:13] <nacc> Capum321: you should read `man gpg` (or probably `man gpg2`)
[00:15] <dumle29> Hey there. I need a tip on how to migrate my psql database from one server to a new one.
[00:15] <dumle29> Now, so far I know I want to run this command: pg_dump -C dbname | ssh -C remoteuser@remotehost "psql dbname"
[00:16] <dumle29> however the trouble is, I need to do this as the user postgresql, on both ends, and this user has no shell nor any password
[00:16] <lavr_> hello
[00:16] <nacc> dumle29: 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.
[00:17] <nacc> dumle29: but also, i think you're supposed to use pg_dump -h (to specify the hostname) on both ends normally
[00:17] <dumle29> idealy 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] <Capum321> nacc, it will encrypt what message i type?
[00:17] <dumle29> nacc: This was a line I found in stack exchange, it's for sending it compressed
[00:18] <nacc> dumle29: so you'd do `pg_dump -C -h localhost -U localuser dbname | psql -h remotehost -U remoteuser dbname`
[00:18] <dumle29> nacc: problem is I can't login to remote host with the user I want to log in as
[00:18] <dumle29> no shell or password for that user
[00:18] <dumle29> I guess the intermediate file is the easiest
[00:18] <nacc> dumle29: psql shouldn't be using shell or password
[00:18] <dumle29> nacc: SSH does
[00:19] <dumle29> but I see what you mean. Connect to the database remotely. I don't think my servers are set up for that :/
[00:19] <nacc> dumle29: yeah it just seems circuitous to use ssh, but i'm also not an expert on the topic
[00:19] <dumle29> nacc: The database isn't open to external IPs
[00:19] <nacc> Capum321: have you read the man page?
[00:19] <nacc> dumle29: ah
[00:20] <dumle29> thanks for the help though :) Gotta close my IRC bouncer before I dump the DB
[00:20] <nacc> dumle29: i think the simplest way is to use pg_dump, scp and then psql -f
[00:21] <artyx> Did they get rid of the - requirement for streaming through the ssh tunnel ?
[00:23] <artyx> or is that just for the tar .. i can't remember now .. but that look slike a fun command to pratice with
[00:23] <anheru> o/
[00:24] <Capum321> nacc "it will perform a reasonable action depending on the type of file it is given as input " and if nothing is given, just gpg? it doesn't tell?
[00:24] <Capum321> i think this paragraph answer my question, but this is just insecure of firt time user
[00:25] <Capum321> first*
[00:25] <nacc> Capum321: 'insecure' ?
[00:25] <Capum321> insecurity?
[00:26] <BraveSirDrakBR> hello everyone! new linux user here
[00:26] <Capum321> nacc, what, this word doesn't exist?
[00:26] <nacc> Capum321: i don't know what you mean
[00:26] <Bashing-om> !manual | BraveSirDrakBR Good place to start :
[00:27] <Capum321> unsecure then
[00:27] <BraveSirDrakBR> no capum it should be insecurity there
[00:27] <nacc> Capum321: that doesn't clarify what you mean to me. What is insecure about gpg's behavior?
[00:27] <nacc> Capum321: you mean you are unsure?
[00:27] <Capum321> ...of first time user. !
[00:27] <Capum321> yes
[00:28] <bazhang> Capum321, how is any of this related to ubuntu
[00:28] <Capum321> oh damn
[00:28] <bazhang> ##security for this Capum321
[00:28] <Capum321> hahahaha
[00:29] <bazhang> Capum321, again this is not a chit chat channel
[00:29] <Capum321> stop annoying me
[00:29] <nacc> Capum321: to encrypt a message into afile with a known key, use `gpg2 --encrypt --output <file>`. Ctrl+D ends the message. To decrypt a file, use `gpg2 --decrypt <file>`.
[00:30] <bazhang> Capum321, please take this elsewhere, to the appropriate channel
[00:30] <Capum321> this is serious discussion and involves ubuntu packages
[00:31] <Capum321> aren't you the moderator of mint channel are you?
[00:32] <bazhang> !ot | Capum321
[00:32] <nacc> Capum321: i gave you the beginnings of how to use the cli. Have to go afk, sorry.
[00:33] <Capum321> nacc thanks for the help. have a great time
[00:48] <mjulbe01> just upgraded to 16.04 on an hp 250 laptop and lost wifi. I have the results of a wireless script i found on the ubuntu forums. the link to the results is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/23139777/
[00:49] <toni_> Hola?
[00:50] <mjulbe01> This is my first time using IRC
[00:52] <alex_xps_linux> welcome to IRC then!
[00:56] <cynicist> mjulbe01, what a pain lol
[00:57] <cynicist> mjulbe01, it seems that your laptop uses the ralink RT3290 chipset for wireless
[00:58] <cynicist> mjulbe01, I see answers for how to get it working in 16.04, apparently the second answer here works
[00:58] <cynicist> mjulbe01, http://askubuntu.com/questions/545238/how-to-install-wifi-driver-ralink-rt3290
[00:59] <cynicist> mjulbe01, oh and welcome to IRC :)
[01:00] <mjulbe01> I'll try that. and thank you. It looks similar to one I found last night, but I was getting an error during the make. I'll try back if it doesn't work
[01:03] <mjulbe01> cynicist, I just noticed that the browser notified me when you used my name. Is that how it works? If so, I missed it on my earlier reply. Thank you again. I'll try that link
[01:03] <cynicist> mjulbe01: yeah that is how it works, and np :)
[01:11] <alex_xps_linux> does anyone on here have thoughts about the proprietary nature of some of ubuntu's software (eg integrated Amazon search scandal, falling out with kubuntu)? I'm not a user of ubuntu myself (Manjaro) but I was just wondering
[01:13] <cynicist> alex_xps_linux: do you mean proprietary nature or corporate?
[01:15] <cynicist> alex_xps_linux: some people don't like things like the CLA, and others just dislike that it's a Linux distro which isn't "community" run rather than under the stewardship of a company. Neither really bother most Ubuntu users I would imagine.
[01:16] <afidegnum> hello, any good wireframing tool for ubuntu 16? i have dia installed but can't get the wireframing feature tehre
[01:18] <Ben64> wireframing?
[01:19] <afidegnum> yes
[01:19] <afidegnum> to build mockups
[01:20] <Ben64> you're going to need to be more specific
[01:28] <segcul>  /msg nickserv register Xhat88^^ culseg@protonmail.com
[01:34] <mjulbe01> cynicist, I tried the second and third answers on that page last night and also a few minutes ago when you suggested it. Still no go. The network status no longer even shows the 'Enable Wifi' option. any ideas?
[01:47] <k_sze[work]> Hmm, why does Trusty come with the GCC 4.9 libs, but not the actual compiler collection?
[01:48] <k_sze[work]> In fact, the gcc-4.9-base package is pretty much empty, save for README, TODO, changelog, and copyright files.
[02:00] <Scientomancer> Hi 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.
[02:01] <Scientomancer> What 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.
[02:05] <Guy1524> hey guys, so I put my computer to sleep, and upon waking up, wtf happened to my launcher? http://i.imgur.com/6SAg6De.png
[02:05] <IdleTues> My external HD won't be read after unplugged from friends' PC - ubuntu reads as unallocated; how can i recover?
[02:06] <tatertots> good 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 screen
[02:06] <cynicist> Guy1524, what do you mean?
[02:07] <Guy1524> cynicist: there are no boxes around my icons
[02:07] <Guy1524> I haven't changed any themes or stuff
[02:07] <IdleTues> try looking up commandlines to use nvidia drivers instead of the default drivers tatertots
[02:07] <Scientomancer> tatertots, I have the same problem. I am able to temporarily work around it by booting in recovery mode.
[02:07] <IdleTues> they might be confliciting with each other
[02:08] <cynicist> Guy1524, well that's bizarre then. I assumed you did change your theme.
[02:08] <Guy1524> ya, I kind of like it lol, wish I could keep it
[02:08] <cynicist> Guy1524, is anything broken?
[02:08] <Guy1524> nope
[02:09] <Guy1524> launcher works find
[02:10] <tatertots> has anyone been able to load proprietary nvidia drivers in 16.04 without issue?
[02:10] <IdleTues> i have but i've installed those drivers a long time ago
[02:10] <IdleTues> and basically i had to command line to use nvidia drivers and stop the default intel driver
[02:11] <IdleTues> it was several years ago though so you'd have to google
[02:11] <cynicist> Guy1524, you could try resetting Unity through unity-tweak-tool
[02:11] <IdleTues> My external HD won't be read after unplugged from friends' PC - ubuntu and windows reads as unallocated; how can i recover?
[02:11] <tatertots> the system i'm using is older it doesn't have a gpu on the CPU die
[02:11] <tatertots> like the more modern sytems do
[02:11] <Guy1524> cynicist: 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 though
[02:12] <tatertots> sounds like IdleTues has a gpu on the cpu die AND a discrete nvidia gpu
[02:12] <IdleTues> probably
[02:12] <cynicist> tatertots, you probably need to run 'nvidia-xconfig' to get a proper xorg.conf
[02:12] <IdleTues> xorg.conf
[02:13] <IdleTues> best of luck
[02:13] <IdleTues> https://xkcd.com/963/
[02:13] <Bashing-om> IdleTues: Tried plugging the drive back into the original system and safely unmount it from that original system ?
[02:13] <IdleTues> im gonna try that in a few hrs
[02:14] <IdleTues> it was at a friend's PC so...
[02:14] <IdleTues> mfw i see him plugging/unplugging several times w/o ejecting
[02:14] <cynicist> IdleTues, jesus lol
[02:14] <cynicist> IdleTues, what filesystem?
[02:14] <IdleTues> ntfs
[02:14] <IdleTues> my hands sweat every time i acknowledge that
[02:15] <tatertots> ok 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 x
[02:15] <cynicist> IdleTues, have you tried running 'ntfsfix' on it?
[02:15] <cynicist> tatertots, you don't have to reinstall
[02:16] <tatertots> see if that does anything
[02:16] <IdleTues> haven't heard of that one
[02:16] <IdleTues> but the big issue is that i think the partition table is broken
[02:16] <IdleTues> so it might not be a terrible issue at all
[02:16] <IdleTues> i've been able to turn a primary parition that i formatted to swap back in to fat32 and recovered everything
[02:16] <IdleTues> but erm... ntfs is different
[02:16] <tatertots> it only take a bit i'm installing from liveusb and i have a solid state drive so no big deal
[02:17] <IdleTues> also it only reads on diagnostic programs like Disks
[02:17] <IdleTues> not gparted, not command line
[02:17] <cynicist> tatertots, ok good luck. That should be the problem imo.
[02:17] <IdleTues> on windows it'll read on disk/device management
[02:17] <IdleTues> but nothing else
[02:17] <IdleTues> i tried making a disk image from a live usb... can't be read
[02:19] <cynicist> IdleTues, try testdisk
[02:19] <cynicist> IdleTues, http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
[02:19] <IdleTues> i've tried that a bit; the sectors take forever to run
[02:19] <cynicist> IdleTues, http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/Advanced_NTFS_Boot_and_MFT_Repair
[02:19] <cynicist> oh
[02:19] <IdleTues> i mean thanks, it's appreciated, i'm gonna do a deep search after i visit my friend
[02:19] <leo__> hi
[02:19] <IdleTues> but a quick search didn't find a sector
[02:20] <leo__> somebody speak portuguese?
[02:20] <IdleTues> i'm gonna do more test disk stuff after i check in with him
[02:20] <cynicist> IdleTues, yeah try 'repair MFT' if you haven't already
[02:21] <IdleTues> repair mft
[02:21] <cynicist> IdleTues, but definitely tell your friend to stop doing that lol
[02:21] <IdleTues> that's a new one
[02:21] <IdleTues> yeah it kinda pissed me off
[02:21] <CtrlAltDel> Hi everyone
[02:22] <IdleTues> im gonna try partition manager
[02:22] <IdleTues> im gonna brb thanks cynicist
[02:31] <IdleTues> cynicist sorry i forgot what that mft program was
[02:34] <IdleTues> cynicist?
[02:34] <steven_> a script to check whether the home directory of an user, including system users, as mentioned in /etc/passwd exists or not in ubuntu linux. any help?
[02:41] <IdleTues> cynicist?
[03:01] <ScriptThis> For a cron entry, is there a trick to calling a script w/ a "-" argument? ie, fromm command line it'd be called ./foo.py -r
[03:16] <kaiqueferreira> Helo

[03:17] <kaiqueferreira> Olá
[03:21] <usradmin> nån sonmm vet en bra hub för filmer
[03:21] <TheNH813> What?
[03:22] <puchogenzo> sup
[03:22] <TheNH813> usradmin: You say something about movies? That's off topic here, and I think you're only allowed to use English.
[03:23] <TheNH813> puchogenzo: I'm having bugs with unity application/file search and the logic screen.
[03:23] <TheNH813> That's what's up by me. Otherwise I'm fine. XD
[03:24] <z3r0> f
[03:25] <puchogenzo> haha ok XD
[03:25] <TheNH813> Question, anyone else experiencing issues with keyboard input on the login screen and unity search? They keyboard dosen't work. I have to switch users and then it let's me login to unlock. I asked about 20 hours ago on UbuntuForums but I'm still waiting on a reply.
[03:25] <OximinuS> nope
[03:25] <puchogenzo> nope :/
[03:26] <OximinuS> but my pc lags horribly on the logon screen
[03:26] <OximinuS> after that it works well
[03:27] <puchogenzo> what could you recomend to setup a dns server for my home
[03:27] <TheNH813> DNS server? Hm......
[03:27] <OximinuS> puchogenzo you speak spanish?
[03:27] <cynicist> TheNH813, that's bizarre, I've never had that problem.
[03:28] <TheNH813> cynicist: Funny thing is, it works in every other application if it's froze.
[03:29] <JAWC> ScriptThis, Make sure you're replacing ./ with the absolute path. e.g. 00 * * * * /some/path/foo.py -r
[03:29] <TheNH813> puchogenzo: Like this: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch18_:_Configuring_DNS
[03:29] <TheNH813> That describes setting up a DNS cache server.
[03:29] <puchogenzo> OximinuS: why?
[03:30] <OximinuS> puchogenzo: your nick
[03:30] <puchogenzo> OximinuS: well yea
[03:30] <OximinuS> puchogenzo: in spanish people mispells "put your hands up" to "puchogenzo"
[03:31] <OximinuS> hehe funny
[03:31] <puchogenzo> OximinuS: yeap that's right
[03:31] <TheNH813> cynicist: And even stranger, the WinKey will still close the search. I agree. It's just plain bizarre.
[03:31] <puchogenzo> XD
[03:31] <puchogenzo> TheNH813: thanks!
[03:32] <TheNH813> You're welcome. The entire site is a guide to Linux Home Networking so I'm sure there are more relevant pages on it.
[03:33] <TheNH813> Definitely a good place to start.
[03:33] <OximinuS> had somedy tried to replace openjdk with oracle's jdk
[03:33] <OximinuS> ?
[03:34] <OximinuS> i firstly removed openjdk* packages
[03:36] <OximinuS> and 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 package
[03:37] <OximinuS> the other package was openjdk9-headless wich i have removed a hundred times
[03:37] <TheNH813> Are you sure you removed ALL Java related packages?
[03:37] <TheNH813> Let me get  alist
[03:38] <TheNH813> sudo apt-get remove openjdk-* icedtea-*
[03:39] <OximinuS> that was exactly what i did, in fact i readed many tutorials on how to replace
[03:39] <ano> hello!
[03:39] <TheNH813> OximinuS: Does it mention whcih file?
[03:39] <TheNH813> ano: Hello! :D
[03:40] <OximinuS> TheNH813: yes
[03:40] <TheNH813> Which file? I can check which package it's from.
[03:40] <TheNH813> Maybe it needs apt-get purge for that specific file.
[03:40] <OximinuS> TheNH813: gimme a sec
[03:41] <TheNH813> *package
[03:42] <TheNH813> Try using: sudo dpkg -S /path/to/file
[03:42] <TheNH813> It'l mention whcih package it belongs to
[03:44] <OximinuS> btw, is any major diference between oracles and open jdk?
[03:45] <TheNH813> Oracle'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] <OximinuS> the only reason im switching it's because android studio requires it
[03:46] <TheNH813> I don't see why Android Studio should need Oracle Java it besides it being a requirement for whatever reason they decided to pick.
[03:47] <TheNH813> I personally see no performance difference between the two for something like.... say Minecraft for example.
[03:47] <TheNH813> As I'v tested both side by side
[03:47] <cynicist> OximinuS, Google recommends it, but I don't think they require it
[03:48] <guzzlefry> IDEA-based IDEs have a few rendering issues in OpenJDK last I checked.
[03:48] <cynicist> OximinuS, in fact, they are trying to switch to openjdk as much as possible because of Oracle if I remember correctly
[03:48] <cynicist> http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2016/01/android-n-switches-to-openjdk-google-tells-oracle-it-is-protected-by-the-gpl/
[03:49] <OximinuS> i have read somewhere that android-studio could be made work with openjdk, but i'm not so linux expert and im afraid to broke my sistem jejejeje
[03:50] <OximinuS> in fact i broke some packages while trying to get jdk to work
[03:50] <TheNH813> OximinuS: I'v learned a LOT by breaking stuff let me tell you.
[03:51] <TheNH813> It's amazing what one rogue package can do.
[03:51] <OximinuS> jaj
[03:51] <OximinuS> i love breaking things to see what happens
[03:51]  * TheNH813 Remembers having to purge all kernels, including the running one used to boot and reinstalling, hoping the power didn't fail and require the recovery disk brought out
[03:52] <sud3sk> alguém on?
[03:52] <OximinuS> but this is the only pc i use to develop for my work so is the only i must not break
[03:52] <sud3sk> hi
[03:52] <alejo-cruz> hi
[03:52] <TheNH813> Hello
[03:52] <sud3sk> Brazilian??
[03:53] <alejo-cruz> bolivian
[03:53] <sud3sk> sou novato em IRC
[03:53] <sud3sk> sabes de canal bacana?
[03:53] <TheNH813> OximinuS: Well, it might be wise to test different Java versions with the Android dev kit in a Virtual Machine, like VMWare or VirtualBox.
[03:54] <TheNH813> That's where I test all sorts of unsupported or possibly unstable combinations of software.
[03:55] <nicomachus> !br | sud3sk
[03:56] <sud3sk> ok thanks
[03:56] <nicomachus> OximinuS: use a VM.
[03:57] <TheNH813> nicomachus: I see we think alike. :D
[03:57] <OximinuS> TheNH813: youre right, the thing i have my main development environment in windows, it is ok, but its shitty when i need to try the soft on devices, to simply try a rom or a bootloader on a device i need 1591293 programs on windows, but on linux can be done on few commands and with commodities (like dd, god bless it) so i decided to switch to linux
[03:58] <OximinuS> so here i am learning a little
[03:58] <TheNH813> I'v never tried to flash a ROM from Windows. I started such thing son Linux. Glad I didn't have to do things the hard way.
[03:59] <nicomachus> from Windows you just use adb command line anyway. same thing.
[03:59] <nicomachus> with TWRP or another recovery on the device
[03:59] <TheNH813> OximinuS: Yup, just keep learning and you'l be able to figure out a lot more on you own. It's suprising how a small increase of available information can make a world of a difference.
[04:00] <OximinuS> nicomachus: yes i used, but in linux you can for example compile a kernel, atach a bootloader, the rest of the rom and try it in one command
[04:00] <OximinuS> it gives more freedom to do
[04:01] <OximinuS> windows is a bus that goes to one place only, and linux is a taxi that takes to whenever you want, if you know where
[04:01] <OximinuS> XD
[04:01] <TheNH813> Pretty much. XD
[04:02] <OximinuS> TheNH813: its not a great deal, but its really easier on linux
[04:02] <TheNH813> ...Well, I'l be. The guest account has no bugs with Unity or Gedit. Great, something trashed my configs again after JUST getting a new account.
[04:03]  * TheNH813 Points fingers at SCIM. Was it YOU?
[04:03] <TheNH813> XDDD I'm gonna disable my IME for other languages.
[04:03] <TheNH813> BRB
[04:04] <cynicist> OximinuS, I love dd. What can be really annoying on Windows (creating an ubuntu disk) is just so simple in Ubuntu. Make sure the usb drive is not mounted and use one command to dump everything on it.
[04:07] <TheNH813> HA!!! It was Smart Common Input Method.
[04:07] <TheNH813> Now I gotta figure out how to use ibus for special characters.
[04:09] <TheNH813> はじめまして
[04:09] <TheNH813> Well, that wasn't so hard ot setup
[04:10] <TheNH813> Guess I'l go mark my thread as solved,
[04:10] <TheNH813> Then other people can use it for help if they encounter the same bug
[04:10] <OximinuS> cynicist: if dd were a woman i would marry it
[04:10] <cynicist> OximinuS, she doesn't complain, just does what you ask for, even if you ask for the wrong thing. XD
[04:13] <OximinuS> cynicist: oh yes, i made many pen-bricks playing with dd
[04:14] <TheNH813> Ah, slap a new MBR on it and it's good as new.
[04:14] <OximinuS> cynicist: and some hard-brick-disks
[04:14] <OximinuS> jaj
[04:31] <fa7ad> any ideas on how to get the last line starting with "file=" without the "file="  from a file like https://paste.linux.community/view/6e41d0ff using sed/awk ?
[04:52] <caliculk> I 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] <caliculk> Mainly 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).
[04:53] <caliculk> "
[04:54] <caliculk> If I specify apt-get -f install it fails with this: https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8908089
[04:54] <alexxxey> I'd like to search for a package's dependants in the trusty repo, but currently I do not have Ubuntu 14.04 installed. Is it possible to search via some web services?
[04:54] <alexxxey> Thanks!
[04:55] <finniy> https://www.darkmoon.me/2016/nice-german-lady-caged-for-offending-jews/#more-48028
[04:55] <finniy> Am I reading this right?
[04:55] <finniy> Ah, wrong channel.
[04:55] <caliculk> You just joined and posted that? Wrong channel indeed. More like a spammer.
[04:57] <PickledEggs[SEA]> caliculk - what do you get from a 'sudo apt-get check'?
[04:57] <caliculk> I think I just fixed it PickledEggs[SEA]. I should have used Google first. https://askubuntu.com/questions/772360/apt-get-not-working-after-attempting-to-install-kde-desktop
[04:57] <caliculk> Trying that right now. But it does appear to actually start setting up new packages.
[04:57] <caliculk> I will run that after this completes and let you know.
[04:58] <PickledEggs[SEA]> ah, nice
[04:58] <caliculk> Yep, looks like everything is working now..
[05:01] <Bray90820> what kernel ships with 16.04 4.4.0.36 or 4.4.0.31
[05:03] <caliculk> I believe .36 Bray90820
[05:03] <caliculk> Oh...
[05:03] <caliculk> 04... not 04.1
[05:03] <caliculk> Not sure
[05:03] <Bray90820> so you don't know?
[05:04] <caliculk> For .04 no, I don't. I installed 16.04.1 yesterday and it had .36 on it
[05:05] <Bray90820> When was 16.04.1 released?
[05:05] <caliculk> End of July
[05:06] <Bray90820> Ok so it was before the 20th of august then I'm good with .36
[05:06] <Bray90820> Thanks
[05:08] <michaelrose> does anyone have a working ubuntu 14.04 setup wherein they have an nfs share mounted via /etc/fstab?
[05:08] <michaelrose> if so it would be interesting to know it exists and if you had to do anything special to make it work
[05:09] <tschf> Hi 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?
[05:11] <michaelrose> sorry that should have been 16.04 I mistyped
[05:18] <rcmainak> "WARNING: Security updates for your current Hardware Enablement Stack ended on 2016-08-04: *http://wiki.ubuntu.com/1404_HWE_EOL"
[05:18] <rcmainak> that's the deal with the above statement? Do I need to upgrade??
[05:19] <michaelrose> your link is badly formatted
[05:20] <j4> hello world
[05:22] <rcmainak> michaelrose, that's what the popup says. It's not my link to be honest. Anyway, do you know the solution & how to approach it?
[05:23] <michaelrose> the problem is the way you posted it makes the final " part of the link
[05:23] <michaelrose> its your posting not the link that is problematic
[05:25] <michaelrose> it 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 packages
[05:25] <rcmainak> yeah, sorry for that. didn't noticed the last " will messup the link lol
[05:26] <michaelrose> unfortunately 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 hardware
[05:26] <rcmainak> can I safely get rid of HWE stack? without affecting anything if possible
[05:27] <michaelrose> I'm not really familiar with the HWE concept but I think it has to do with providing a newer kernel + gpu stuff so no
[05:29] <rcmainak> according to lshw the machine I'm using has "Intel(R) Pentium(R) CPU G2010 @ 2.80GHz"
[05:29] <michaelrose> is there a good reason not to install a newer hwe?
[05:30] <Surfer2010> Hello 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 exif
[05:30] <rcmainak> It's a work computer not a personal one lol. I need to ask for permission before installing or removing anything
[05:33] <rcmainak> michaelrose, is there any reason to use HWE stack on that CPU?
[05:34] <rcmainak> I want to remove anything that doesn't update my kernel
[05:35] <michaelrose> I thought HWE was basically newer kernels on older releases
[05:36] <JAWC> rcmainak, 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).
[05:37] <rcmainak> huh, thank you. I should probably ask for a complete upgrade to 16.04
[05:37] <JAWC> And 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] <michaelrose> why would you need to restore from backup?
[05:38] <michaelrose> couldn't you add an additional kernel and pick which one to boot from?
[05:39] <JAWC> michaelrose, because restoring took less than a minute and working out how to fix the problem would've taken me a long time.
[05:39] <michaelrose> first of all there is no way on earth that restoring the filesystem from backup took less time than rebooting
[05:39] <rcmainak> I don't need care about backup cause I'm using git on a server lol
[05:40] <rcmainak> I mean everything is already backed up there
[05:40] <michaelrose> logically after you restore from back up you still have to reboot
[05:47] <kishan> Hiiii
[05:48] <kishan> Hi Sir How are you
[05:54] <michaelrose> when you upgrade the kernel does it not even provide you with an option to have both?
[05:55] <OerHeks> both?
[05:55] <michaelrose> both kernels
[05:55] <OerHeks> sure, the previous 'old' kernel is still in grubmenu
[05:56] <michaelrose> then why on earth if one didn't work would you need to restore from backup?
[05:56] <OerHeks> not sure where you read this ..
[05:57] <michaelrose> the prior posters comments
[05:57] <OerHeks> oh i cleared a minute ago, i'll read the logs
[05:58] <OerHeks> oh, HWE ..
[05:59] <OerHeks> that involves more than just a kernel AFAIK.
[06:01] <OerHeks> 14.04.5 + hwe .. i would just upgrade.
[06:07] <Saja> Hi!! PickledEggs!
[06:07] <mgb> hi. i find unity unusable and cinnamon is buggy. is there any respite available?
[06:07] <OerHeks> !flavors
[06:08] <OerHeks> go wild on the many desktops :-)
[06:08] <mgb> OerHeks, dont really want to use any of those tbh
[06:09] <OerHeks> Then there is no "any respite available"
[06:09] <mgb> im happy with cinammon i just need it to stop being so buggy
[06:10] <Saja> Hi all! I have installed Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS 32 bit alongwith Windows 7, but no presecce on menu while startup pressing F6/Normally
[06:10] <Saja> Can anyone give me the right solution?
[06:10] <OerHeks> mgb, what do you call 'buggy' then? can you explain?
[06:11] <OerHeks> Saja, hold shift @ boot to enter grubmenu
[06:11] <mgb> OerHeks, right now it randomly decides to change my desktop to a pink purple screen
[06:11] <mgb> it's not convenient to constantly restart the desktop.
[06:11] <mgb> i need it black so it doesn't distract me
[06:12] <OerHeks> mgb, on what machine/specs? without proper info this sounds more like a hw issue to me
[06:13] <JAWC> michaelrose, 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.
[06:15] <Saja> Hi...OerHeks........I already try "Left Shift Hold Procedure"......but still can't find Ubuntu.
[06:15] <OerHeks> Saja, is this a machine with UEFI bios?
[06:16] <mgb> OerHeks, it's not a hardware issue
[06:16] <mgb> OerHeks, i can keep using the desktop with a pink wallpaper (i dont want that)
[06:17] <JAWC> mgb, In system settings -> appearance, change to a wallpaper that doesn't have the clock icon (clock icon = wallpaper 'Changes throughout the day').
[06:17] <Saja> I have limited knowledge about computer..........At BIOS I found that with "Legacy", I think.
[06:17] <Saja> What is that?
[06:17] <OerHeks> Saja, with uefi, you need to do some steps to get a signed boot, see the uefi manual
[06:17] <OerHeks> !uefi
[06:18] <ducasse> mgb: do you have an intal gpu?
[06:18] <mgb> ducasse, nah, nvidia
[06:18] <mgb> so if i can restart the cinnamon window manager, hopefully i can keep my state
[06:19] <mgb> is there a way to do that..
[06:19] <Saja> I directly entered to Windows 7 after startup.
[06:19] <Dynetrekk> hi, automounting of SSH doesn't seem to work for me - I've added x-systemd.automount to the /etc/fstab entry and otherwise followed the instructions in arch wiki about sshfs
[06:20] <Dynetrekk> any idea how to debug that?
[06:20] <Saja> OK....finding UEFI.
[06:22] <mgb> ok i figured it out but it still has a pink wallpaper
[06:22] <mgb> sigh
[06:23] <OerHeks> so cinnamon is not buggy, good.
[06:23] <mgb> it is buggy
[06:23] <mgb> it's awful
[06:23] <mgb> i cant change the wallpaper without restarting it
[06:24] <mgb> and i mean literally logging out and restarting xorg
[06:24] <michaelrose> Dynetrekk, so you too find systemd mounting to be screwy
[06:26] <Dynetrekk> michaelrose: well.. I guess!
[06:26] <Dynetrekk> michaelrose: I'm no linux x-pert
[06:26] <Dynetrekk> michaelrose: well, I'm a decently advanced user, but not sysadmin
[06:27] <michaelrose> I'm thinking a second install of funtoo is in order
[06:27] <michaelrose> openrc for the win
[06:28] <atitest> hi all
[06:28] <atitest> i am trying to build gtk perf
[06:29] <atitest> autgen.sh and ./configure
[06:29] <atitest> both are fine
[06:29] <atitest> but i can't make
[06:29] <atitest> it says make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[06:30] <Dynetrekk> atitest: no Makefile was created, then
[06:31] <Dynetrekk> atitest: so they're not fine
[06:31] <atitest> But else was quite finne
[06:31] <Dynetrekk> atitest: check again; must be something wrong if no makefile was created
[06:35] <atitest> How to check? in config.log
[06:38] <tYnig> wattap
[06:38] <tYnig> kaleksi paikalla?
[06:38] <tYnig> eee
[06:38] <tYnig> :yui:
[06:38] <tYnig> :yui:
[06:38] <tYnig> :yui:
[06:38] <tYnig> :yui:
[06:38] <tYnig> :yui:
[06:39] <atitest> Dynetrekk, should i paste my config.log ?
[06:39] <Dynetrekk> atitest: you've got to give us something more - but my autoconf knowledge is exhausted so ask the room and hope someone else knows
[06:40] <atitest> Dynetrekk, what logs i should paste ?
[06:41] <Dynetrekk> atitest: as I said, I don't know anything about autoconf - just that it definitely *should* create a Makefile/makefile
[06:41] <Dynetrekk> atitest: try the file you said and ask the room, not me
[06:41] <atitest> Ok
[06:41] <atitest> hope any one knows here about autoconf
[06:42] <Dynetrekk> atitest: try finding a channel for the software package you're trying to build (very general advice) - they should know more than a random buntu user
[06:43] <Guest2467> hi, everyone need help. My touchpad suddenly stopped working. When I type synclient -l in terminal it gives this output:"Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?"
[06:44] <EriC^^> !Ping
[06:44] <EriC^^> !ping
[06:46] <Bray90820> Where would my kernel source folder be in 16.04
[06:50] <BlauskaerM> Bray90820: I think that is a package you need to install from apt-get?
[06:50] <BlauskaerM> Dont think you have all the kernel source code by default
[06:51] <_ikke_> Is there a way to remove the current primary address of a server without it removing the default route?
[06:51] <Bray90820> Well after I download it where would it be :P
[06:51] <_ikke_> Had it several times where removing the primary address also removed the default route, causing me to loose connection to the server
[06:52] <OerHeks> Bray90820, really .. easy to find, on what linux version ?
[06:52] <_ikke_> Already changed the src of the default route to the new ip address
[06:52] <Bray90820> OerHeks: ubuntu 16.04.1
[06:52] <Surfer2010> Hello 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 exif
[06:52] <OerHeks> Bray90820, in you /home/ folder perhaps?
[06:54] <Bray90820> OerHeks: "/home/kernel/source" doesn't seem to be there
[06:55] <OerHeks> check downloads?
[06:55] <Bray90820> Why would it be there?
[06:55] <OerHeks> or download it again, and pay attention ..
[06:55] <Bray90820> If it exists it came from a git clone
[06:56] <sergioad> Hi friends
[06:56] <OerHeks> ubuntu + git + kernel .. you are on your own, i don't support that.
[06:58] <Guest2467> hi everyone, need help. My touchpad suddenly stopped working. When I type synclient -l in terminal it gives this output:"Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?"
[06:59] <sebsebseb> hi
[06:59] <OerHeks> Guest2467, do you have a FN key to switch enable/disable touchpad/mouse?
[06:59] <sergioad> what do you think about my Ubuntu desktop? http://i.imgur.com/6zB0NfF.png http://i.imgur.com/AAbPjri.png http://i.imgur.com/I8nVgvz.png http://i.imgur.com/tysEsjU.png
[06:59] <Guest2467> no,   OerHeks
[06:59] <sergioad> no Unity but instead Cinnamon
[07:01] <sergioad> I installed the stock Ubuntu and them installed Cinnamon
[07:01] <sebsebseb> sergioad: that's a bit off topic or  off topic even, but looks nice,  I notice Steam as well.   Rocket League coming to it in beta soon by the way see http://omgubuntu.co.uk for details
[07:02] <sebsebseb> http://omgubuntu.co.uk
[07:02] <sergioad> thanks sebsebseb
[07:03] <sebsebseb> seaner: someone in my family loves that  game, no they won't be playing the Linux port, but that's great they are porting it
[07:04] <sergioad> sebsebseb: pardon me because of the fact that I am talking off topic but I wanted to share my Ubuntu as you may seen I tried to keep the Ubuntu's identity with a similar color pallete and predominant black and red
[07:05] <sergioad> I know that Ubuntu does not uses red but this red is orange-{ish :D
[07:08] <sebsebseb> sergioad: the default Ubuntu look has been much more orange in the past, brown to
[07:08] <sergioad> yes :)
[07:08] <sergioad> indeed
[07:09] <habbasi> Hello, everyone. I'm getting a black screen after installing upstart on Xubuntu 16.04.1.
[07:10] <habbasi> I have a GTX 970, if that helps.
[07:10] <ducasse> habbasi: why are you messing with the init?
[07:11] <trijntje> habbasi: you have to start via recovery mode
[07:11] <habbasi> trijntje: On it.
[07:12] <habbasi> trijntje: Now? Root shell?
[07:12] <trijntje> habbasi: no, just resume normal boot
[07:13] <habbasi> trijntje: Brings me to a login prompt. Hold on.
[07:14] <sergioad> sebsebseb: I have keept the Ubuntu's style at least a little bit?
[07:15] <habbasi> trijntje: systemd-logind[5038]: Failed to start user service, ignoring: Unknown init: user@1000.service
[07:17] <trijntje> habbasi: you might need to install the driver from the graphics-drivers ppa
[07:17] <habbasi> trijntje: nvidia drivers or noveau will also do?
[07:18] <sebsebseb> sergioad: the background sure
[07:18] <trijntje> habbasi: I'm using NVIDIA open source driver 364.19, and I get working graphics if I boot via the recovery menu
[07:18] <sebsebseb> royce:  that's a interesting name in a way
[07:22] <habbasi> trijntje: What about normally?
[07:28] <trijntje> habbasi: not for me, I always have to boot via the recovery menu. Its slightly anoying, but not enough for me to figure out how to fix it ;)
[07:28] <RuralHack> Thank you for the Screen Saver Hacks on the last update of Mint 17. It's nice not dreading start-ups. Thanks again.

[09:00] <k1l_> Saja: why dont you use the virtualbox from the ubuntu repo?
[09:01] <Saja> say me the procedure.......all is well for me.
[09:01] <k1l_> ubuntu ships a virtualbox version. and with that you get bugfix and security updates automatically.
[09:02] <Saja> uh.......so how can I get it.
[09:02] <Saja> ?
[09:02] <k1l_> Saja: open the software center and search for "virtualbox". or you use the terminal and use "sudo apt install virtualbox"
[09:03] <Saja> password demanding......what type is that password?
[09:03] <k1l_> your user password
[09:03] <Saja> I am using terminal
[09:03] <Saja> uh....thanks.
[09:04] <k1l_> its always your user password. the same you use to login.
[09:09] <Saja> Actually I want to run virtual IOU.......like IOU_v22_UD-disk1.vmdk
[09:10] <cengoo> eheh
[09:10] <cengoo> hey
[09:10] <cengoo> bro
[09:10] <Saja> Is this possible at oftware center's "virtualbox"?
[09:11] <cengoo> yes bro
 r u here?
[09:13] <k1l_> Saja: yes
[09:14] <OerHeks> Saja, should be possible
[09:14] <OerHeks> !virtualbox
[09:15] <kogmo> !amd64
[09:15] <Saja> uh....great.
[09:16] <OerHeks> Saja, really, softwarecenter is the place to be.
[09:16] <kogmo> Why us 64bit called amd64? Why amd specifically?
[09:16] <praktmate> hi
[09:16] <OerHeks> kogmo, amd was the 1st with a 32 + 64 bit uni processor, intel just made 32 or 64 bit.
[09:17] <OerHeks> so amd won
[09:17] <k1l_> kogmo: the patent was invented from amd. so that is the naming reason.
[09:18] <giuliano> Game Of Thrones 6x09 La Battaglia Dei Bastardi ITA-E...	
[09:18] <kogmo> Ok. Thanks for the info
[09:18] <k1l_> !warez | giuliano
[09:18] <bazhang> wrong network giuliano
[09:19] <Saja> is the ubuntu software centre named as "Ubuntu Sofware" - a orange colour bag with "A" logo?
[09:20] <k1l_> Saja: yes
[09:20] <giuliano> !list
[09:21] <Saja> But I search "virtualbox", but still founding nothing.
[09:21] <Saja> Better the terminal .....installing it.
[09:22] <kogmo> I think you need to enable canonical partners from software center
[09:22] <OerHeks> it is in the partner repo, go into software > sources
[09:22] <OerHeks> but you could reaad that in the url ubottu gave you
[09:23] <Saja> DKMS: install completed.
[09:23] <Saja> thanks all.
[09:28] <prestin> could anyone explain me why my default "ip route" vanishes by a reboot?
[09:31] <joelio> prestin: 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.
[09:32] <prestin> joelio 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] <joelio> if it's literally a default gw for an interface, you specifiy it in the static config.. otherwise it comes via dhcp obv
[09:32] <joelio> openvpn generally has options to push routes
[09:33] <prestin> alright, so next time i need to add it to the static config file right?
[09:35] <leeyaa> hi guys
[09:35] <leeyaa> how can i check what has installed files in /usr/share/javascript/jquery
[09:36] <leeyaa> i need to downgrade the jq version
[09:38] <ducasse> leeyaa: dpkg -S /path/to/file
[09:43] <leeyaa> ducasse: yeah i figured where it is
[09:43] <leeyaa> ;p
[09:43] <kamisama> HElp? How do i add an ssl proxy to my wifi network? from UBuntu 16.04
[09:43] <leeyaa> thanks
[09:54] <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 ubuntu14.04
[09:56] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge_: , motion as in a noise ?
[09:57] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge_: a movement noise ?
[09:57] <sebsebseb> or liek a part of it inside is ?
[09:58] <Jakey2> Can someone help me setup static ip on a privallaged lxc container?
[10:00] <ZeekHuge_> sebsebseb: yes .. somewhat like noise. Its similar to the sound made when I eject and close the drive.
[10:01] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge_: could be a failing drive or starting to fill or not quite work right hardware issue yes
[10:01] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge_: 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 not
[10:01] <sebsebseb> if so then yes indeed hardware issue I guess
[10:02] <Saja> I have installed Virtualbox at Ubuntu but can't run the IOU file IOU_v22_UD-disk1.vmdk ............can anyone help me?
[10:02] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge_: 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 now
[10:02] <sebsebseb> Saja: yes possibly
[10:02] <sebsebseb> Saja: first of all vmdk is for VMware not really Virtualbox, however Virtualbox does have support for vmdk as welll
[10:03] <sebsebseb> Saja: 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 files
[10:03] <Saja> uh
[10:03] <sebsebseb> also what is that vmdk altough that;s not so relivent
[10:03] <sebsebseb> Saja: 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 ?
[10:04] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge_: not sure about optiums, etc, but yes would be worth a try
[10:04] <sebsebseb> Saja: generally just use the default vhd viritualbox format, however what is your vmdk ?
[10:05] <ZeekHuge_> sebsebseb: Can I revert back from 16.04 to 14.04 ?
[10:05] <Saja> hm....understand
[10:05] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge_: no downgrading is not offically supported and doing so may break your system etc
[10:05] <sebsebseb> trying to do so I mean
[10:05] <sebsebseb> !downgrade
[10:05] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge: it would be possible though, but see above
[10:06] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge: I expect it to be possible but see above
[10:06] <sebsebseb> in 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 liscensed
[10:07] <sebsebseb> file system above not formats
[10:07] <Saja> So....whais is the suggestion for me?
[10:08] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge: noveeous has improved well it does improve, even Nvida support it partly as well now
[10:08] <sebsebseb> not sure it's curent state
[10:08] <ZeekHuge> sebsebseb: Then probably I'll try to install 16.04 alongside of 14.04 and see if the optimus setup works or not.
[10:08] <sebsebseb> not using machines or devices with Nvidia currently myself
[10:08] <sebsebseb> !optimus
[10:08] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge: hmm ^
[10:08] <sebsebseb> what the bot put
[10:08] <sebsebseb> hmm
[10:08] <ZeekHuge> thats old info ?
[10:08] <Saja> I must run the IOU_v22_UD-disk1 file...........is there any alternate file for Ubuntu supported virtualbox.
[10:09] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge: I woudn't know, maybe maybe not
[10:09] <sebsebseb> !info nvidia-prime
[10:09] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge: ok good it's in 16.04 by the looks of it
[10:09] <sebsebseb> I guess you try that then
[10:10] <ZeekHuge> yeah. will try .. once I have some free time.
[10:10] <ZeekHuge> sebsebseb: Thanks :)
[10:10] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge: you're welcome good luck :)
[10:10] <sebsebseb> Saja: what is the virtual machine the OS
[10:10] <sebsebseb> you are trying to run ?
[10:10] <sebsebseb> what is it?
[10:11] <sebsebseb> and  what is the vmdk file, did you download it, or make yourself or what?
[10:11] <ZeekHuge> btw.. very off-topic question (ignore if you want to, no problem :) ). How about the book Art of computer programming ?
[10:11] <maaz_> helo
[10:11] <bumbar_> i/j #chromium
[10:11] <ZeekHuge> how much time will it take to complete it?
[10:11] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge: not sure what book your on about
[10:11] <k1l_> ZeekHuge: that better suits in #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:11] <bazhang> try #ubuntu-offtopic for that ZeekHuge
[10:12] <ZeekHuge> oh ! thats a real channel ! didnt know that !
[10:12] <sebsebseb> ZeekHuge: yep
[10:13] <hateball> ZeekHuge: if you have a recent nvidia card you may benefit from using the nvidia !ppa, for a later driver than is shipped with 16.04
[10:13] <Saja> Now 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.vmdk
[10:14] <sebsebseb> Saja: yes ok, but what is the IOU_v22_ud-disk1  what's that for ?
[10:14] <ZeekHuge> hateball: and what is meant by "recent" ?
[10:15] <Saja> uh....may be iNetworkExperts topology for CCIE
[10:15] <k1l_> Saja: you have a #virtualbox issue (since you dont know how to use virtualbox) and not a ubuntu issue.
[10:15] <Saja> yes
[10:15] <hateball> ZeekHuge: 5xx gtx and upwards
[10:15] <bazhang> #vbox it is
[10:15] <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] <bazhang> Saja, #vbox
[10:15] <sebsebseb> Saja: not sure what any of that is for,  but yeah k11  and bazhang have a point, you should try #virtualbox really
[10:16] <bazhang> thats not the correct channel sebsebseb
[10:16] <sebsebseb> Saja: #vbox
[10:16] <ZeekHuge> I used bumblebee earlier and use to keep the card off. With nouveau, its probably on and being used and therefore causes heating.
[10:17] <Saja> that is my task...and I have to complete the few contain of that file.
[10:17] <MarcoMarcaccini> hi, 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 battery
[10:17] <hateball> ZeekHuge: if you install the proprietary driver and nvidia-prime + nvidia-settings you can pick the active card. Not sure nouveau supports that
[10:18] <k1l_> ZeekHuge: bumblebee is deprecated on ubuntu. use the nvidia driver which ships nvidia-prime on ubuntu
[10:18] <ZeekHuge> hateball: okay so lshw shows that its GF108M [NVS 5400M], so i guess its the recent one . right ?
[10:18] <Saja> So I should leave #Ubuntu and join # virtualbox.........correct?
[10:18] <niko> :22
[10:19] <sebsebseb> Saja: no  join #vbox
[10:19] <sebsebseb> Saja: I gave wrong channel
[10:19] <sebsebseb> !virtualbox
[10:19] <k1l_> Saja: no. you can join more than one channel at once. but i linked you a howto. but for detailed questions on virtualbox you get more help in #vbox
[10:19] <Saja> ok thanks all of u.
[10:19] <sebsebseb> Saja: good luck
[10:19] <hateball> ZeekHuge: yep
[10:20] <hateball> ZeekHuge: always use !ppa at your own risk, but with the nvidia driver it usually helps to keep up to date to avoid much headache
[10:20] <ThePendulum> 'lo
[10:21] <ThePendulum> I 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?
[10:22] <hateball> ThePendulum: using network-manager, nmcli if you are using commandline
[10:23] <k1l_> ThePendulum: 15.10 is dead already. better plan to upgrade that box after it got internet again
[10:23] <ThePendulum> if I could actually get dual screen to work in 16.04 I would've been on it in march
[10:23] <k1l_> ThePendulum: if its not managed in the interfaces file the networkmanager will handle the device.
[10:24] <thiras> !help
[10:24] <ThePendulum> well that was what I wanted to ask tbh
[10:25] <ZeekHuge> hateball: 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 drivers
[10:25] <ZeekHuge> right ?
[10:25] <hateball> ZeekHuge: if you use the ppa, or even the default additional drivers, it will blacklist nouveau automatically
[10:25] <cengoo> hey
[10:29] <ZeekHuge> hateball: 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 try
[10:29] <ZeekHuge> also using it from additional driver is == to adding PPA right ?
[10:29] <hateball> ZeekHuge: well if you have proprietary drivers installed that dont properly support your card you may end up with a blank screen
[10:30] <hateball> ZeekHuge: no the "normal" additional driver fetches up to 361, the ppa has later versions
[10:31] <rockyh> hi!
[10:32] <hateball> ZeekHuge: if you are feeling daring: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-370 nvidia-prime nvidia-settings
[10:32] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[10:32] <ZeekHuge> hateball: haha ! yes .. I am always feeling daring ! :)
[10:32] <hateball> ZeekHuge: 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 it

[10:35] <rockyh> I am using Xubuntu 14.04 in a laptop and when charging the battery, percentage grows from (say) 2% to 99% in few minutes. Then, it stays a lot more time in 99% before reaching 100%. What can be the problem?
[10:36] <JediMaster> hi guys, I'm trying to make sense of the CVE listings here: https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/main.html do these suggest that the yellow "needed" fields have not been patched?
[10:37] <Capum321> hello, when i used svn, it asked me to create a password keyring. Since then, I should enter the svn host password and this keyring to use some commands. How do I manage the keyring: change password; disable/enable ?
[10:37] <boriseto> So it has been a while and will give it another go. I have a new Desktop (writing from it atm) with 2x8GB DDR4 memories, but I only have inserted one, because having them both resultet in "Kernel panic". It had no problems when trying to boot up a Win10. Any ideas?
[10:38] <ZeekHuge> hateball: btw .. how do you know the ppa ? is it because you have used it ? or there is some logic behind that ?
[10:39] <ZeekHuge> logic == some standard rules based on which the official PPAs are named.
[10:39] <BluesKaj> never heard of kernel panic bcaused by too much RAM
[10:42] <CyberaX> bonjour :)
[10:44] <boriseto> BluesKaj, maybe because of DualChannel or something similar? Really don't know how to fix it. Tried with Ubuntu 16.10 as well (newer kernel, maybe compatibility issue) but no luck.
[10:45] <Capum321> whats up cyberax, do you know about password keyring?
[10:46] <CyberaX> no ?
[10:46] <CyberaX> password for ?
[10:46] <ZeekHuge> hateball: okay, so going to reboot, if I am back in a minute, it works, otherwise .... lets see.
[10:48] <Capum321> it's a system password
[10:48] <Capum321> don't know how to change its setup
[10:48] <CyberaX31> no problem for me :) sudo passwd :)
[10:49] <Capum321> it's not that at al

[10:50] <CyberaX31> use openvpn Aizen
[10:51] <Capum321> aizen, did you forward port on the router?
[10:51] <BluesKaj> boriseto, perhaps one of your RAM sticks is faulty and Windows just ignores it, but Ubuntu doesn't

[11:21] <daemon55> does anybody here use calibre
[11:23] <DJones> daemon55: Yes Ido
[11:23] <daemon55> do you know how to program it to scrol a line at a time
[11:23] <DJones> daemon55: Sorry no, I just use it as a book database & for converting ebooks into different formats
[11:24] <daemon55> djones so you never used epub with it?
[11:24] <ZeekHuge> hateball: back .. but I am using irssi on the terminal. that basically means i am unable to login, even after !nomodeset, I am caught in a login loop.
[11:24] <DJones> daemon55: Yes, but I don't edit or read books with it, I just transfer them to either a kobo or a tablet
[11:25] <daemon55> sucks
[11:26] <ZeekHuge> I noticed something like "NVIDIA licence kernel tainted" in the dmesg. Is that relevant ?
[11:27] <hateball> ZeekHuge: ack
[11:28] <ZeekHuge> hateball: Any idea what should i try to get the proprietary drivers working ?
[11:28] <hateball> ZeekHuge: well you can try using the 367 driver, "apt install nvidia-367", or purge them altogether to get back to nouveau
[11:29] <hateball> ZeekHuge: I only use dedicated GPUs, so cant really say what could be wrong with a hybrid gpu
[11:29] <ZeekHuge> hateball: okay. Also, I dont need to do something in nvidia-settings to get this working . right ?
[11:29] <hateball> ZeekHuge: well you can switch between intel and nvidia in nvidia-settings
[11:32] <ZeekHuge> ahh .. it just worked somehow. Dont know what happened.
[11:36] <alesha> hello guys
[11:36] <pngl> When Ubuntu prompts an "unlock private key" window, am I supposed to enter my user password?
[11:37] <ZeekHuge> hateball: ahh .. its working now, that same setup .. nvidia 370. Thank you :)
[11:37] <ZeekHuge> Though its with !nomodeset
[11:37] <ZeekHuge> but that works for me
[11:38] <hateball> ZeekHuge: I have had some bugs where login window was black (sddm as I run kubuntu) and switching to tty1 and back would fix it
[11:39] <hateball> ZeekHuge: there is also support for drm/kms with later nvidia drivers now, so one could try enabling that and see if it works without nomodeset
[11:39] <ZeekHuge> hateball: I didnt switch to tty1 this time. It just worked in the normal way.
[11:40] <hateball> ZeekHuge: but using nomodeset, yes?
[11:40] <hateball> ZeekHuge: you could try using "nvidia-drm.modeset=1" instead of nomodeset, see if that works
[11:40] <ZeekHuge> yes . does that make it different ?
[11:40] <ZeekHuge> using !nomodeset
[11:41] <hateball> ZeekHuge: it shouldnt matter for the nvidia driver so long as you are only using X
[11:42] <hateball> but if KMS works then you have proper bootsplashes and suc
[11:42] <hateball> again I dont know how all of this works with hybrid-gpus either

[12:32] <hustle> ok
[12:34] <hustle> akik: i had thought abotu reverting to defualt by apt-get remove / install awesome (added a ppa) with no luck
[12:34] <ZohairBhai> does it pass config check
[12:34] <hustle> seems weird the config files were replaced?
[12:34] <ZohairBhai> -k
[12:34] <hustle> yeah
[12:34] <hustle> awesome -k says ok
[12:35] <ash_workz> where is the 3rd level chooser defined in unity? is it "Alternative Characters Key" in Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Typing ?
[12:35] <hustle> i meant it seems weird that didnt resolve my problems
[12:36] <hustle> like that apt-get remove/install of awesome didnt replace the config files. i did an apt-get update awesome and didnt realize thats system update so let me reboot just to be safe i guess
[12:37] <ZohairBhai> exec awesome > ~/.xsession.log 2>&1 would write the startup information
[12:37] <ZohairBhai> might give a clue
[12:37] <ZohairBhai> if reboot doesn't help
[12:38] <Capum321> how to change password keyring setup?
[12:39] <hustle> ZohairBhai: thanks reboot  now will try that command
[12:39] <akik> hustle: i sometimes reinstall packages with sudo apt-get install --reinstall package
[12:40] <hustle> akik: thanks!
[12:40] <hustle> brb guys thanks sincerely for the help thus far
[12:41] <maasstyle> how to change the root user name which is appearing the terminal comman prompt?
[12:43] <javajoe> I am using start-stop-daemon to daemonize a java app. How can I get to see the error log?
[12:44] <shadowmtl2000> Hi
[12:44] <mistawright> hi guys i need some help. i have php7.0 enabled and json is also insalled and symlinked properly but my server says it json support is no when it is enabled
[12:45] <ZohairBhai> mistawright: did you restart the webserver daemon after symlink
[12:45] <hustle> ok, so no luck with reboot. how can i at the command to output xsession log to lightdm session exec command?
[12:46] <hustle> well i guess i could try to ctrl-alt-backspace X to kill it but i have a feeling lightdm may start?
[12:46] <hustle> nvm man page helped me lemme see if i can figure it out thanks
[12:48] <hustle> crap
[12:49] <hustle> well looking at /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf is blank
[12:49] <hustle> theres a lightdm.conf in /etc/init/.. would that be the one used to configure sessions in lightdm in ubuntu?
[12:50] <hustle> akik, ZohairBhai theres a lightdm.conf in /etc/init/.. would that be the one used to configure sessions in lightdm in ubuntu?
[12:50] <ZohairBhai> nope
[12:51] <ZohairBhai> it should be in the followling locations
[12:51] <ZohairBhai> /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/*.conf
[12:51] <ZohairBhai> /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/*.conf
[12:51] <ZohairBhai> /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
[12:51] <ash_workz> I think the 3rd level chooser is dead in newer versions of ubuntu
[12:52] <ash_workz> or has been made == compose key
[12:52] <ZeekHuge> hateball: After that nvidia thing.. there is no screen backlight control . Also.. the lower portion of the screen is heating up. So I purged it. still the backlight control is missing and the screen is heating up !
[12:52] <ZeekHuge> any idea anyone ?
[12:53] <ash_workz> I just thought there's got to be an easier way to type a bullet then u+2022 all the time
[12:53] <hustle> ZohairBhai: interesting i checked these config files and dont see Xfce or Awesome sessions listed anywhere
[12:53]  * ash_workz shurgs
[12:55] <ZohairBhai> hustle: do the /usr/share/xsessions/awesome.desktop exist
[12:57] <epic> I am experiencing this exact bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1577926 (apt running apt-key is not working, running the exact same apt-key command myself works) any idea on how to fix it?
[12:58] <akik> hustle: the config in /etc/init/ is for upstart to start lightdm
[12:58] <hateball> ZeekHuge: did you check nvidia-settings?
[12:58] <hateball> ZeekHuge: there should be various power settings and such
[12:58] <hustle> ZohairBhai & Akik thanks
[12:58] <hateball> ZeekHuge: as for backlight, I do not know. I dont use a laptop
[12:58] <hustle> must log out and check around thanks brb
[12:59] <hateball> zeekhuge_: !nomodeset refers to the trigger in here, in case you want to read about it
[12:59] <hateball> !nomodeset | zeekhuge_
[13:01] <zeekhuge_> hateball : there were no relevant power settings
[13:04] <javajoe> I am using start-stop-daemon to daemonize a java app. However, the java app is generating error on startup. how can I get to see the error log?
[13:05] <ZeekHuge> hateball: ahh .. proprietary nvidia graphics sucks !
[13:05] <ZeekHuge> really !
[13:05] <ZeekHuge> finally coming back to quiet splash gives me the brightness control and the heating is very low now.

[13:08] <tadziz> Hello. Maybe someone will be able to help. I have joined ubuntu to windows domain usind realmd sssd. I can id domain-user. I can connect from windows to ubuntu vm using domain user, but it doesn't do sso to the server. On ubuntu machine i have enabled GSSAPIAuthentication and set same thing on Putty on windows, but it still asks for password. DO i need to configure anything else for sso on ubuntu 16.04.1 ? thanks
[13:11] <primegirl> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmw1POF6hpk
[13:11] <primegirl> Enjoy that.
[13:12] <hateball> zeekhuge_: well, one can also argue that hybrid gpus are a pain :p
[13:14] <primegirl2> If the government and the media are lying to us about 911, then it means that the government and the media are controlled by the very people who did 911.

[13:17] <zeekhuge_> Why is bumblebee depreciated ?
[13:20] <BluesKaj> zeekhuge_, no longer being developed for the newer Linuxes I reckon
[13:20] <PCatinean> What can one do if there is a wkhtmltox.deb file that is not designed for Xenial and has a dependency that's missing in Xenial?
[13:20] <PCatinean> Just unpack the deb and place the files manually?
[13:21] <zeekhuge_> Okay
[13:21] <zeekhuge_> But it was better than what the new kernel supports
[13:22] <MRX> hello
[13:23] <BluesKaj> zeekhuge_, nvidia-prime is supposed to help with problems in more recent hybrid nvidia/intel gpu systems afaik
[13:24] <ducasse> PCatinean: it won't run at all without the dependencies being satisfied.
[13:25] <haelen> Hi. I'm fairly new to Ubuntu. I have installed successfully on and old Dell via USB, but when I try to do the same with my semi-defunct MacBook, it will not boot from the HD. Instead, I get the 'white screen'. TIA
[13:25] <EriC^^> !mac | haelen the info here might help
[13:27] <zeekhuge_> BluesKaj : but it is not able to . I installed nvidia-prime , settings and nvidia-370. And had to run it with nomodeset or nvidia-drm.nomodeset. in both the cases, there was no backlight control and the backlight controller, which happens to be inside the lower portion of the screen, was heating up a lot.
[13:30] <zeekhuge_> BluesKaj : I am back to nouveau
[13:32] <PCatinean> ducasse, i just need wkhtmltopdf from the package
[13:32] <PCatinean> the other seems to fail because of dependencies
[13:33] <ducasse> PCatinean: i know nothing about that package, but if it depends on a library you will need that to run it.
[13:33] <BluesKaj> zeekhuge_, nouveau is quite good on it's own if you don't require OpenGL higher than 2.0
[13:34] <hateball> !info wkhtmlpdf
[13:34] <hateball> !info wkhtmltopdf
[13:34] <hateball> PCatinean: whats wrong with that ^
[13:35] <kamisama> Anyone knows how to bypass blocked sites
[13:36] <hateball> !ot | kamisama
[13:37] <Pici> PCatinean: fyi, the wkhtmltopdf package requires that you run it within a fake X session.  look into xfxvfb-run if you're on a non-desktop environment.
[13:38] <kamisama> how do i switch channel
[13:39] <DArqueBishop> kamisama: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:40] <kamisama> I use IRC Chat Xchat, HOw do i join?
[13:41] <DArqueBishop> kamisama: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:41] <DArqueBishop> That's the command you use.
[13:41] <ash_mobile> kamisama /join #channel ?
[13:42] <kamisama> oh, thanks
[13:42] <zeekhuge_> Finally .
[13:42] <zeekhuge_>  Used bumblebee to switch nvidia off
[13:43] <qswz> why the ubuntu server image is so big (667Mo)
[13:43] <kamisama> this is /join #ubuntu-offtopic?
[13:44] <Pici> kamisama: yes, but you need to be registered and identified to join #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:44] <Pici> !register | kamisama
[13:44] <zeekhuge_> BluesKaj: can I use nouveau to switch off nvidia graphics card ?
[13:44] <Pici> qswz: because there are a lot of different things you can choose to install.
[13:44] <qswz> mm ok
[13:45] <Pici> qswz: The minimal iso is much smaller, but will download everything it needs.
[13:45] <Pici> !minimal
[13:45] <qswz> yea I know this one, but I've problems setting the boot for my laptop
[13:45] <qswz> I don't understand anything in that
[13:46] <BluesKaj> zeekhuge_, maybe in the nvidia settings gui , but it doesn't come with nouveau afaik
[13:46] <qswz> so I prefer something that will manage the boot annoying thing
[13:48] <hateball> nvidia-settings requires nvidia blob, yes
[13:48] <mikeirc> Hello everyone
[13:48] <mikeirc> I really need help
[13:49] <tadziz> Anyone have experience with SSO from windows to linux using SSH with kerberos ?
[13:49] <mikeirc> I can't upgrade from ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04. I always have and error
[13:50] <mikeirc> I have removed all added ppa, even that I keep having the same error
[13:50] <backbox> hi
[13:51] <Pici> mikeirc: it would help if you told us what error you were getting.
[13:51] <mikeirc> Ok, let me sent it to you
[13:52] <Pici> mikeirc: Please use a pastebin and post it in this channel.
[13:52] <qswz> pastabean
[13:53] <mikeirc> Ok thank you. I'm going to do it right now
[13:56] <mikeirc> Could not calculate the upgrade
[13:56] <mikeirc> An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.
[13:56] <mikeirc> This can be caused by:
[13:56] <mikeirc> * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
[13:56] <mikeirc> * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
[13:56] <mikeirc> * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
[14:02] <mikeirc> I've just sent the message I'm having when trying to upgrade
[14:08] <Pici> Please use a pastebin, like http://paste.ubuntu.com .  Unifortunately I cannot help you now as I'm in the middle of a meeting now.

[14:25] <qswz> how is the "virtual machine host" done on ubuntu server installation, it's just virtualbox?
[14:27] <nacc> qswz: no, i think it's probably qemu + libvirt
[14:28] <DArqueBishop> qswz: it's KVM. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM

[14:40] <wang_> hello
[14:40] <qswz> damn.... I've installed ubuntu-server 16.04, upgraded and updated apt, and it still can't find the package lubuntu-qt-desktop
[14:40] <qswz> as explained here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/LXQt
[14:40] <wfleming> hi guys wondering if anyone knows if you can disable "normalization" of rules in UFW?
[14:41] <wfleming> 2 rules for the same subnet to the same port get rolled into one huge /24 rule.
[14:41] <wfleming> Seems a bit mental to me. Wondering if its something i can disable. Or do i need to just bin ufw and use iptables script of my own..
[14:41] <qswz> !find lubuntu-qt-desktop
[14:41] <qswz> what??
[14:43] <qswz> I'm one
[14:43] <qswz> done*
[14:45] <joelio> grumble.. I wish ubuntu cloud team would get their act together with ubuntu/xenial64 images (specifically for vagrant). Just hit by a bug which means I can't create more than one ubuntu/xenial64 box as it names them all the same! trusty is fine and using chef's is fine... just ubuntu can't... ubuntu.
[14:45] <qswz> hmm found https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/yakkety/+package/lubuntu-qt-desktop
[14:46] <joelio> there's also a bug in the vboxsf handling that's been an issue for months, hey ho..
[14:46] <mcphail> qswz: your package isn't supported. it is experimental and a work-in-progress. It won't be supported in this channel
[14:47] <qswz> hmm
[14:47] <mcphail> qswz: you may be able to install it in yakkety. "Support" for that would be in #ubuntu+1
[14:47] <qswz> ok
[14:48] <qswz> just a quick question, how to install this repo from command line?
[14:48] <mcphail> qswz: remember there isn't any formal support for anything in yakkety yet
[14:48] <qswz> yes it's 1 month early
[14:49] <mcphail> And you shouldn't add a yakkety repo to a xenial install
[14:49] <qswz> :(
[14:50] <qswz> this page is misleading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/LXQt
[14:50] <mcphail> Wikis are often misleading
[14:52] <mcphail> Although it does say in big bold letters the equivalent of "do not install this"

[14:59] <jak2000> hi all
[15:00] <jak2000> an alternative for donwload ubuntu server 32 buts (torrent official page not work)
[15:01] <alberti> done
[15:01] <joelio> jak2000: do you need 32bit specifically? Most systems 64bit nowadays (x86 based for sure)
[15:01] <alberti> huush
[15:02] <alberti> qswz keep hope
[15:02] <joelio> jak2000: you'll find the images on cdimage.ubuntu.com thogh, fwiw
[15:03] <joelio> jak2000: specifically http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ but I'd check about i386 - 64bit systems around for 10 years(ish) now.. since core2duo basically
[15:04] <joelio> most Xeons or whatever is servers will for sure (unless its reaaaaaly old)
[15:04] <kelvinella> hello, my root password doesnt work how do I reset it?
[15:04] <SchrodingersScat> !root | kelvinella
[15:04] <kelvinella> I dont remember changing it, it was the same as my user password
[15:04] <SchrodingersScat> kelvinella: passwd should work to change your password though
[15:05] <SchrodingersScat> kelvinella: yes, sudo lets you use your users password
[15:05] <kelvinella> what about root?
[15:05] <joelio> sudo passwd root
[15:05] <kelvinella> ok let me try brb
[15:05] <joelio> if not, then boot into rescue/single user mode and reset
[15:06] <SchrodingersScat> kelvinella: read the bot info re: root
[15:06] <SchrodingersScat> kelvinella: if you have a vps or something that for some reason does have a root account, then normally sudo -i then passwd does the trick
[15:06] <kelvinella> It works!!! THX A LOT!!!
[15:07] <kelvinella> 1 more thing, is the root account in phpmyadmin the same as the root account
[15:08] <joelio> no, mysql password is not linked to normal accounts (it can be, but not default)
[15:08] <kelvinella> Then how do I reset it?
[15:08] <joelio> you have to stop mysql and boot into a recovery mode, then run some mysql
[15:08] <kelvinella> I forgot the root password in phpmyadmin
[15:08] <joelio> loads of info on the net how to do that
[15:09] <joelio> beyond the scope of #ubuntu support :)
[15:09] <a101101> que tal
[15:09] <kelvinella> I should have written it down a year ago I forgot the damn password
[15:09] <kelvinella> I try reinstall phpmyadmin doesnt work
[15:10] <mcphail> kelvinella: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-majorversionnumber-minorversionnumber" should do the trick
[15:11] <kelvinella>  package 'mysql-server-majorversionnumber-minorversionnumber' is not installed and no information is available
[15:12] <mcphail> kelvinella: yes - you need to chenge the end of that to _your_ server's version. e.g. "sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.7"
[15:14] <kelvinella> mcphail, http://pastebin.com/80W4TTRp
[15:14] <kelvinella> error
[15:14] <joelio> I'm not sure doing a reconfigure will reset root, dbconfigure already ran
[15:15] <joelio> afaiu you need to reset the root pw via stopping mysql, using the recovery mysql and then runnign SQL to set the root user pw
[15:15] <joelio> but could be easier ways :)
[15:15] <kelvinella> can i purge mysql and phpmyadmin and then reinstall everything?
[15:16] <mcphail> joelio: it should work. It certainly did when I last ran mysql on ubuntu and still works for mariadb on debian
[15:17] <joelio> dbconfigure already happened though, so not sure that does the reset - but not done it for a while, things change
[15:19] <sleepypixels> kelvinella: yes, reinstallation would probably help

[15:57] <Sam54> Hello, I was on 14.04TLS and saw that there was an "important update" to do. I did it and the computer, after displaying "ubuntu" with 5 dots wont start. An idea ? (sorry for my french-based english).
[15:57] <abaldygle> Jak2000:  http://ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads    BitTorrent section choose 16.04 LTS or 14.04 LTS or 12.04.5 LTS each has 32bit section.
[15:57] <jak2000> but the torrent not download
[15:57] <jak2000> i am wait 1 hour or 2
[15:57] <jak2000> and 0.00%
[15:57] <jak2000> :(
[15:57] <captainACE> i am not playing games on wine though
[15:58] <captainACE> what shuld my swappiness value be
[15:58] <captainACE> i set it to 10 is it ok?
[15:58] <nacc> captainACE: the default unless you know why to change it
[15:58] <captainACE> i want to make games faster so i changed it to 10
[15:59] <ioria> jak2000, server or desktop ? http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/
[15:59] <abaldygle> jak2000:  Then something wrong with your network   It just downloaded for me in about 5 seconds.   Then try http://mirror.pnl.gov/release/14.04.4
[15:59] <captainACE> i have another problem,i always have to start linux from recovery mode and then boot it from there because if i boot it normally my monitor goes to sleep,this is a major problem as the pc runs in software rendering mode
[15:59] <nacc> captainACE: based upon what did you make that change?
[16:00] <captainACE> nacc: saw a guide on OMGUBUNTU.com and they told that you should reduce swappiness,and also a youtube channel named nixiepixel
[16:01] <slicktux> lulz nixiepixel still around.
[16:01] <captainACE> nah i dont think so

[16:01] <captainACE> a true geek
[16:01] <nacc> captainACE: were you seeing excessive swapping?
[16:01] <slicktux> -_-
[16:02] <captainACE> i dont even know waht swapping is i just changed it because the guides say that it makes pc run faster
[16:02]  * nacc sighs
[16:02] <slicktux> 0.o
[16:02] <nacc> captainACE: that's not generally something i'd recommend following (that kind of advice)
[16:02]  * slicktux breaths nacc's sighs and sighs it out
[16:02] <nacc> slicktux: heh
[16:02] <captainACE> check the link out though
[16:02] <captainACE> just a sex
[16:03] <captainACE> sec

[16:03] <captainACE> scrool down till the last one
[16:03] <captainACE> lol slick
[16:03] <k1l_> captainACE: so your video driver is not working properly at all. if its only in software rendering mode
[16:04] <captainACE> is there a way to fix it , ican tfind any drivers for it and cards arent that old
[16:04] <k1l_> what video card is it and what driver is in use?
[16:05] <nacc> captainACE: "If you find that Ubuntu is swapping processes out to disk when it shouldn’t be, you can try a lower value". You just said you don't know what swapping is, so I don't see how you believe following that advice is a good idea.
[16:05] <k1l_> captainACE: lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | nc termbin.com 9999
[16:05] <nacc> captainACE: but it seems like k1l_ will provide good advice for you now
[16:05] <captainACE> thanks nacc
[16:06] <captainACE> k1l ill paste the code
[16:06] <captainACE> http://termbin.com/3oo9
[16:06] <captainACE>  here you go
[16:07] <slicktux> I remember the times when I used to follow commands blindly; those were dark dayz I tell ya.
[16:07] <k1l_> uh amd.
[16:07] <captainACE> lol
[16:07] <captainACE> i thought linux guys dont like nvidia
[16:08] <captainACE> dark days
[16:08] <slicktux> captainACE: that is a heisty generalization.

[16:12] <nicomachus> ok, I'm gonna be that guy.
[16:12] <nicomachus> !ot | all
[16:12] <captainACE> k1l you come up with any solution ?
[16:13] <nicomachus> I'm having some bluetooth issues. my laptop says it is paired with my bluetooth speaker, but the "connection" toggle is just grayed out, and it doesn't show up in the sound settings or pavucontrol as an audio output option.
[16:14] <captainACE> i was thinking of installin ubuntu on my surface pro 4 , is it a good idea? is there touch support? or am i crazy to do so?
[16:14] <k1l_> captainACE: radeon is the proper driver for that card. its not new enough to be supported by amd_gpu
[16:15] <nicomachus> captainACE: you can search through https://www.reddit.com/r/SurfaceLinux to see if anyone has the SP4 working, and find common issues.
[16:15] <captainACE> :( imma die a virgin now even my card is old
[16:15] <k1l_> but that is not the reason why its not starting properly.
[16:15] <captainACE> thanks nicomachus
[16:15] <captainACE> what is the other problem k1l
[16:16] <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 there
[16:16] <slamd64> hello anyone here using dwm? is there any package that instals Xft.h library because I can't find it.
[16:16] <captainACE> hmm youre probably righ
[16:16] <captainACE> t
[16:16] <FZRBOT> /wtf
[16:16] <captainACE> ?lol
[16:16] <Mishari> I found something hilarious in ubuntu, I can exploring files using the firefox !
[16:17] <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 entry
[16:17] <captainACE> wut m8?
[16:17] <captainACE> ok k1l
[16:17] <Pici> slamd64: theres libxft-dev
[16:17] <k1l_> captainACE: FZRBOT keep it focused on technical support in here. thanks
[16:17] <slamd64> Pici: thanks I will check it
[16:17] <captainACE> k1l i cant even start grub it just goes to sleep when i boot normally
[16:18] <k1l_> captainACE: that doesnt really make sense. how are you booting ubuntu then?
[16:18] <captainACE> from recover mode,and then i resume normal boot,as i said before
[16:18] <k1l_> so you see grub
[16:18] <captainACE> yeah
[16:18] <AntonioRibeiro> I'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?
[16:19] <captainACE> but not when i start ubuntu normally
[16:19] <nicomachus> ok, 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] <captainACE> it just geos to sleep
[16:19] <k1l_> captainACE: that doesnt make sense
[16:19] <captainACE> ill explain it to you,gimme  aminute
[16:19] <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.
[16:21] <captainACE> k1l_ 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 ubuntu
[16:23] <captainACE> is grub the gibberish text on the screen that appears during boot? idk sorry if i am an ultra noob
[16:23] <captainACE> im sucha noob
[16:23] <jak2000> http://mirror.pnl.gov/release/14.04.4   not found
[16:23] <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 screen
[16:23] <k1l_> jak2000: 14.04.5 is the latest 14.04 release
[16:24] <captainACE> ill try it and tell you,thanks again brb
[16:24] <k1l_> jak2000: but that mirror doesnt work at all for me
[16:24] <AntonioRibeiro> I'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 help
[16:25] <jak2000> this worked for me: http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/
[16:25] <jak2000> downloading.... thanks
[16:27] <Rapture> I'm wanting to send some test logs to syslog but when I run logger <some message> they don't show up
[16:27] <Rapture> any suggestions?
[16:31] <Rapture> nvm, -p local3.notice works
[16:34] <Capum321> do you know about password keyring? when setup svn in terminal, it required me to create it. how to remove and disable it?
[16:37] <captainACE> hey k1l_ so i pressed e in normal boot,removed quiet splash and pressed f10 to boot,but it still didnt work
[16:38] <captainACE> monitor goes to sleep again
[16:38] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> are you using backbox?
[16:38] <captainACE> me?
[16:38] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> yes
[16:38] <captainACE> no i dont know what a backbox is ,is it a virtual machine?
[16:39] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> its like kali linux but different its based on ubuntu
[16:39] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> its meant for penetrations testers and web security
[16:39] <captainACE> no im running ubuntu mate 16 lts and i had the same problem with linux mint,i alwys have to boot from recovery mode,normal boot doesnt work for me
[16:40] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> nightmare idk how to help sorry
[16:40] <captainACE> no worries :)
[16:40] <captainACE> where is k1l though
[16:41] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> are you using a v machine
[16:41] <captainACE> no
[16:41] <captainACE> dualbooted alongside windows 10
[16:41] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> ah ok
[16:41] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> what programme have you used to put linux on usb?
[16:42] <captainACE> it satrts with universal usb..somthing , idont remember the name
[16:42] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> uinviersal usb installer?
[16:42] <captainACE> is it a problem from the usb program?
[16:42] <captainACE> yeah
[16:42] <captainACE> yeah
[16:42] <captainACE> tha tone
[16:42] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> try using unetbootin
[16:43] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> i had issues installing kali linux and mint and i used that and it worked
[16:43] <captainACE> ahh,gotta install everything again,will it work tho?
[16:44] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> im not 100%
[16:44] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> it may work, up to you tho
[16:44] <captainACE> a 60% chance is ebough tho
[16:44] <captainACE> or maybe its got to do with my amd card
[16:44] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> yeah maybe im using a intel
[16:45] <captainACE> ahh
[16:45] <captainACE> nice
[16:45] <captainACE> you are on the safe side
[16:45] <captainACE> me,not so much
[16:45] <captainACE> do you think i should post this issue on a forums?
[16:47] <Optiprism> Hey I'm thinking of putting Ubuntu on a ssd, does ubuntu support SSDs as well as windows?
[16:47] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> yeah sure why not post it on reddit.com/r/linux/
[16:47] <Optiprism> Or will my SSD quickly fail because of the write operations?
[16:48] <sleepypixels> Optiprism: Ubuntu does support SSDs. You don't need to worry about wearing out the drive though.
[16:48] <SwedeMike> Optiprism: I recommend to use "relatime" in fstab, apart from that things should work just fine.
[16:48] <nicomachus> Optiprism: Ubuntu runs just fine on an SSD. Probably even better than Windows. You'll boot in like, 5 secs.
[16:48] <nicomachus> don't blink.
[16:48] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> im 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 aswell
[16:48] <Optiprism> Alrighty I'll give it a go :D
[16:49] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> xD
[16:49] <Penorsaurus> hello all
[16:49] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> hello
[16:49] <Penorsaurus> what is wrong with this crontab job set for root: */30 * * * * root shutdown -r +5
[16:50] <XXXOPTICWASTEMAN> dunno
[16:50] <Penorsaurus> This is set in the root's crontab using "sudo crontab -e"
[16:50] <Penorsaurus> It is meant to restart every 30 minutes.
[16:51] <EriC^^> Penorsaurus: you don't need to put root there
[16:51] <Penorsaurus> */30 * * * * /sbin/reboot
[16:52] <Penorsaurus> I might try this
[16:52] <EriC^^> Penorsaurus: yeah that'd be good
[16:54] <nacc> Penorsaurus: i believe i told you that yesterday? :)
[16:54] <Penorsaurus> dont recall
[16:57] <swensson> Ubuntu is a unix OS, right?
[16:57] <EriC^^> no
[16:58] <swensson> EriC^^ it isnt? :S
[16:58] <nicomachus> GNU is Not Unix
[16:59] <swensson> so I define it as GNU?
[16:59] <OerHeks> swensson, scrabble again: linux
[16:59] <Solid-State> Any crontab pros here? Trying figure out how to disable cron from running on initial Amazon AMI boot
[17:00] <EriC^^> swensson: linux is based on unix kind of (it's a complete rewrite though) and ubuntu uses the linux kernel
[17:00] <swensson> What:S I thought every Linux/ubuntu system were Unix systems
[17:00] <Penorsaurus> looks to be working now
[17:01] <swensson> it "feels" wrong to call ubuntu linux, I made them like Windows & Mac in my head
[17:03] <OerHeks> swensson,  please keep it in your head :-D
[17:03] <EriC^^> swensson: ubuntu uses the linux kernel at it's core and a bunch of other stuff
[17:03] <swensson> Well anyways, thanks for the information guys =) made me not look like a complete fool tomorrow ;D
[17:04] <EriC^^> ubuntu = linux kernel + package manager + gnu programs + de .. the init system, etc.
[17:04] <BadApe> hi, i need to rescue a broken system, is there an ubuntu rescue cd/usb image?
[17:05] <captainACE> yeah,there is although i cant remember the name,let me search my browser history
[17:06] <captainACE> yeah its called boot-repair-disk
[17:06] <captainACE> ill send the link
[17:06] <captainACE> https://sourceforge.net/projects/boot-repair-cd/ here you go
[17:07] <captainACE> @badAPE
[17:08] <BadApe> captainACE, is boot repair different from the linux rescue cd?
[17:08] <rif> helooo
[17:09] <rif> anyone here
[17:09] <captainACE> tbhh 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 mentiones
[17:09] <captainACE> hi rif
[17:09] <OerHeks> BadApe, depends what you call broken, normally one uses the live iso to fix stuff
[17:09] <captainACE> OerHeks is right
[17:10] <OerHeks> or maybe booting in recoverymode can be enough.
[17:10] <captainACE> yeah,like if you have broken packages or something
[17:10] <OerHeks> BadApe, so what exactly is your issue?
[17:13] <BadApe> OerHeks, 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 login
[17:14] <OerHeks> BadApe, unless he has an encrypted home, it is easy to reset the password.
[17:14] <BadApe> ha, i just guessed his password
[17:14] <transhuman> BadApe boot to live cd and recover it
[17:14] <transhuman> I will paste the steps if you like
[17:14] <transhuman> it varies encryption and lvm
[17:14] <BadApe> i was going to boot into rescue mode but it didn't give me what i remember as the recovery menu and a root console
[17:14] <BadApe> doesn't matter, i got root now
[17:14] <OerHeks> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[17:15] <transhuman>  ok no problem
[17:16] <BadApe> sorry i used to know what i was doing, but been a while since i did much on linux
[17:18] <transhuman> http://paste.debian.net/813110/ <<-- anyone know how to fix this codec problem seems to be missing from the codes all file and there hasnt been an update since 2011
[17:18] <transhuman> s/codes all file/codecs-all-file
[17:19] <rif> anyone here
[17:19] <rif> heloo
[17:19] <transhuman> here here
[17:19] <rif> heloo transhuman
[17:19] <transhuman> welcome
[17:19] <rif> thanks
[17:19] <rif> im new here
[17:19] <rif> and start use ubuntu
[17:19] <transhuman> not for long that was 20 seconds ago...your behind the times ..lol
[17:20] <rif> lol
[17:20] <nicomachus> transhuman: have you installed ffmpeg?
[17:20] <rif> so what the topic now
[17:21] <nicomachus> !ot | rif
[17:22] <transhuman> yes trying to from souce with no luck
[17:22] <transhuman> going to try a different route
[17:22] <transhuman> instead of combining with mplayer do it separately
[17:24] <transhuman> looks to me like the latest version has partially registered codes or something
[17:24] <transhuman> s/codes/codecs
[17:25] <nicomachus> transhuman: just do it from terminal.... 'sudo apt-get install ffmpeg'
[17:25] <transhuman> I need a later version I think for what I am doing
[17:25] <transhuman> but thanks for the suggestion
[17:27] <omaha> hello all
[17:27] <transhuman> figers crossed
[17:28] <omaha> i'm having trouble creating a custom X session in 16.04
[17:29] <omaha> so i'm trying to piece together the relationship between lightdm, gnome-session, and the unity greeter
[17:30] <omaha> it seems as though ~/.dmrc is being ignored entirely...
[17:30] <omaha> it seems as though setting the default user-session in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/my-override.conf is being ignored entirely...
[17:33] <EriC^^> !ping
[17:33] <hdon> hi 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 1024
[17:34] <ioria> omaha, i'd go with .xinitrc
[17:34] <hdon> i'm not sure when these rules are evaluated... do i have to drop down to a lower runlevel?
[17:35] <genii> !runlevels
[17:35] <omaha> ioria, .xinitrc is run *after* the window environment is started, right? i want to replace the window environment
[17:36] <omaha> all the documentation i see online points to creating custom sessions in /usr/share/xsession to accomplish that
[17:36] <genii> Hm, that needs updating
[17:36] <hdon> oh, right. thanks for that, genii.
[17:36] <hdon> do i have to reboot then?
[17:36] <ioria> omaha,  you start xorg, overriding lightdm,  and start your wm
[17:37] <omaha> ioria: how do i "override lightdm"?
[17:37] <ioria> omaha,  you stop it
[17:38] <ioria> omaha,  run xinit  or xinit with args in 16.04
[17:38] <kamisama> Need help, How do I bypass firewall at collage? in ubuntu
[17:38] <nicomachus> kamisama: talk to your university help desk. You won't find help with that here.
[17:38] <omaha> can you be more specific? you're saying just stop the lightdm service? as in sudo stop lightdm?
[17:38] <nicomachus> It's there for a reason.
[17:39] <ioria> omaha,  xinit -- :0 -nolisten tcp vt$XDG_VTNR
[17:39] <ioria> omaha,  yes, sudo service lightdm stop and start xinit
[17:39] <kamisama> nicomachus, If you can't help dont.
[17:39] <meshuggah> hello, i recently installed windows so it removed grub and everything....now i am booted on lubuntu, how can i put grub back configure it back with the many distro installed?
[17:40] <nicomachus> kamisama: it's off-topic for this channel anyway.
[17:40] <genii> hdon: The limits.conf changes take effect immediately, but only for processes which spawn after the changes have been made. Simplest is a reboot
[17:40] <hdon> oh i see. i need a new login shell. so i'll need to reboot if i want this change to be taken up by daemons started by init/upstart/whatever
[17:40] <hai> hello
[17:40] <OerHeks> kamisama, your question is beyond the scope of this channel, try ##linux or so
[17:40] <hdon> genii, it doesn't seem to be for new processes or my test would have worked
[17:40] <omaha> ioria: i think i understand. i need to ditch lightdm and replace it with xinit, configuring systemd to do that for me on boot, right?
[17:40] <hdon> genii, but if i use su -l # then i get the new ulimit
[17:40] <hdon> or, actually...
[17:40] <hdon> yeah i think this is the case
[17:40] <ioria> omaha,  nope
[17:40] <kamisama> OerHeks , Thanks
[17:41] <nicomachus> or ##networking even.
[17:41] <ioria> omaha,  it's only another way to start X
[17:41] <hai> can anyone provide me with a decent explanation on how to crack wifi pw's on ubuntu
[17:42] <nicomachus> ....
[17:42] <nicomachus> no.
[17:42] <OerHeks> hai, wrong channel
[17:42] <hai> mkay
[17:42] <sexy-guy> Why won't pretty girls talk to me?
[17:42] <hai> thanks anyway
[17:42] <ioria> omaha,  if you have a ,xinitrc set, xorg will start the env you set in there
[17:42] <meshuggah> there is no girls on irc, sexy-guy
[17:42] <OerHeks> hai, find the kali or backtrack channel
[17:42] <sexy-guy> i mean irl
[17:42] <sexy-guy> no pretty girls talk to me
[17:42] <nicomachus> sexy-guy: wrong channel.
[17:43] <MonkeyDust> sexy-guy  type alt f4
[17:43] <sexy-guy> but i need some pussy
[17:43] <sexy-guy> right away
[17:43] <sexy-guy> its a pussy emergency
[17:43] <hai> will do thanks
[17:43] <nicomachus> !op | sexy-guy
[17:43] <dax> hi
[17:43] <dax> sexy-guy: cut it out.
[17:43] <LinStatSDR> Oh hai dere
[17:43] <OerHeks> nicomachus, this is worse than #wrongplanet spammers..
[17:43] <dax> or that.
[17:44] <paolo_>  /server irc.openjoke.org
[17:45] <MelRay> Installed from USB and used the option for LVM using /dev/sda. When the machine reboots it goes directly to rescue prompt saying a file ending in .mod is missing. If I put the USB back in and boot it will but not before it mentions something (I think levtd) has not been activated then it finds the drive and boots. Anyone help me out?
[17:46] <nicomachus> MelRay: did you md5sum the USB when you created it?
[17:46] <jhutchins_wk> MelRay: I'd boot to the USB, chroot, and reinstall grub.
[17:46] <jhutchins_wk> !fixgrub
[17:46] <jhutchins_wk> MelRay: That gives you the basic process.
[17:46] <MelRay> nichomachus: Yes
[17:46] <omaha> ioria: i get that there is more than one way to configure a custom x session. i think you're right, .xinitrc might be a solution. but my question is really: shouldn't i be able to create a custom session definition in /usr/share/xsession/mysession.desktop and configure lightdm/unity-greeter to launch it by setting ~/.dmrc to Session=mysession?
[17:47] <MelRay> jhutchins_wk: Thank you
[17:47] <sexy-guy> hey
[17:47] <sexy-guy> Why won't pretty girls talk to me?

[17:48] <maasstyle> how can i bring the windows drives  into ubuntu?
[17:48] <maasstyle> please help me out guyz
[17:48] <akik> maasstyle: ubuntu can read the drives by default
[17:48] <EriC^^> maasstyle, file manager > mount them
[17:48] <hai> yeah
[17:48] <meshuggah> ^
[17:49] <ioria> maasstyle, CYGDRIVE
[17:49] <OerHeks> depends on the format, exfat need fuse
[17:50] <maasstyle> akik the drives are  not visible
[17:50] <ioria> maasstyle, does't matter
[17:50] <maasstyle> eric where can i find the file manager
[17:50] <EriC^^> maasstyle, are you using ubuntu with unity?
[17:50] <OerHeks> maasstyle, see with fdisk what format the drives are, if it is exfat >> sudo apt-get install exfat-utils exfat-fuse # and restart your filemanager
[17:51] <kamisama> Is there any vpn client available for Ubuntu?
[17:51] <R13ose> I am getting these dark areas in 16.04 all over the place in context menus and notification plus elsewhere, how do I fix these?  Could be because of my graphics graphic.
[17:51] <R13ose> Also using KDE
[17:51] <captainACE> what graphics card are you using? did you disable software rendering?
[17:52] <akik> R13ose: do you mean the tooltips?
[17:52] <R13ose> yes
[17:52] <akik> R13ose: in firefox in kubuntu 14.04 ?
[17:52] <OerHeks> kamisama, yes, vpn is standard available in neworkmanager
[17:52] <OerHeks> !vpn
[17:52] <R13ose> akik: could be anywhere but mostly system tooltips I would say.
[17:53] <maasstyle> eric thanks alot
[17:53] <akik> R13ose: ok so i'm not sure then what it is but there is a bug in firefox that causes tooltips to be black text on black background
[17:53] <kamisama> OerHEks thanks again
[17:53] <maasstyle> iroria thanks alot
[17:53] <EriC^^> maasstyle, no problem :)
[17:53] <BluesKaj> kamisama, I use PIA(Private Internet-Access) , it's excellent and inexpensive, and there's a new gui app you can sownloadand install
[17:54] <BluesKaj> download
[17:54] <akik> R13ose: can you test if your firefox displays the same dark areas when you hover on a tab ?
[17:54] <R13ose> akik: yes I will right now
[17:55] <R13ose> akik: everything seems fixed but happens on and off which is crazy
[17:56] <akik> R13ose: ok so it's not the same problem then
[17:56] <R13ose> akik: A notification came up and is in all black which I can't read.
[17:57] <akik> R13ose: are you using oxygen-gtk theme?
[17:57] <R13ose> akik: how can I tell?
[17:58] <akik> R13ose: go into system settings/application appearance/gtk
[17:58] <akik> R13ose: because you said it happens on and off it can't be the same problem
[17:59] <R13ose> akik: says I am using Breeze
[18:00] <akik> R13ose: can you make a screenshot of the problem?
[18:01] <OerHeks> yay, OTA-12 released
[18:03] <glardhamion> hi
[18:04] <MonkeyDust> lo
[18:06] <R13ose> akik: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gsd4ffm0owawf5u/Black%20Notficiation.png?dl=0
[18:07] <hellyeah> 200mb is enough for /boot area right?
[18:08] <akik> R13ose: ok i had that same problem in firefox. you can find the theme settings in /usr/share/themes/.../gtk-3.0/kdeglobals. see if you have that file
[18:08] <OerHeks> hellyeah, sure.
[18:08] <OerHeks> uefi boot, that is.
[18:08] <Arnex> Quick questions about btrfs and Ubuntu: If I have an Ubuntu install with a btrfs file system with / mounted to subvolume @ and /home mounted to subvolume @home, is it possible to install a newer version of Ubuntu to @ while leaving @home in tact?
[18:09] <k1l_> hellyeah: well, ubuntu is removing old kernels on new kernel install now
[18:09] <hellyeah> good improvement
[18:09] <hellyeah> i am helping to person for installing ubuntu
[18:09] <hellyeah> i will say create ext4 200mb /boot
[18:10] <xangua> hellyeah: why not just / and /home partition?
[18:10] <R13ose> akik: no file by that name in that directory
[18:10] <xangua> And swap
[18:10] <k1l_> hellyeah: do you need a /boot ?
[18:11] <Arnex> xangua: using subvolumes allows the size of each to be dynamic, rather than fixed.
[18:11] <hellyeah> once i got error about installing grub
[18:11] <hellyeah> i created /boot manually to fix that
[18:12] <hellyeah> i remembered that time
[18:12] <Arnex> xangua: oh, sorry i see you were replying to someone else
[18:12] <akik> R13ose: sorry, i don't know then. i had the tooltip colour settings in kdeglobals
[18:13] <MelRay> Followed directions on fixing grub with getting the lvmetd not activated issue. update-grub throws this: /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 35: /etc/default/grub: Syntax error: EOF in backquote substitution
[18:13] <R13ose> akik: thanks for the help
[18:14] <SonicPenguin> hi, i'm on ubuntu 14.04 with kernel 4.2. I know i should upgrade to the next HWE, but my GPU is still not supported by the AMDGPU driver. If i upgrade i'll have to use the open source driver, right?
[18:14] <jak2000> how to know if a ip is DHCP or static? is [possible?
[18:14] <jak2000> i need know the range of ip that dhcp reserve?
[18:15] <k1l_> hellyeah: usually you dont need /boot these days. except some lvm,raid or encryption setups.
[18:15] <OerHeks> SonicPenguin, open AMDgpu is for the latest cards, open radeon for the older ones, no need to hold upgrading
[18:15] <k1l_> jak2000: that depends on the routers settings. some routers dhcp servers give out same ip for sam mac adress.
[18:16] <R13ose> akik: I changed the rendering backend and that black notification is in colour now but stuck there.
[18:16] <SonicPenguin> OerHeks, actually they said that GCN 1.0 cards will be supported in the future, but in the meanwhile a prefer staying on fglrx instead of radeon
[18:17] <jak2000> arghh i need setup a static ip and if put it on range of the dhcp not workk
[18:17] <OerHeks> SonicPenguin, radeon works pretty good, here.
[18:17] <SonicPenguin> i just wanted to know if upgrading to the latest HWE will be the same as using ubuntu 16.04, because with that version i was forced on radeon
[18:17] <SonicPenguin> i'm sorry, but the power management is nothing compared to fglrx

[18:41] <ubuntu064> any recommendations for configuring ubuntu 16.04 runing on ssd?
[18:42] <dax> it's fine out of the box
[18:43] <dax> don't bother with swap if you don't need it and really really care about writes i guess
[18:43] <compdoc> ubuntu064, 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 enabled
[18:45] <ubuntu064> @dax what about swapinessand setting up trimming?
[18:46] <k1l_> ubuntu064: ubuntu supports trim out of the box for ssds
[18:46] <dax> i wouldn't bother with swappiness. it's 2016. ssds handle writes to swap fine
[18:46] <dax> and if you don't need swap, just remove it completely
[18:48] <ubuntu064> what about noatime in fstab - by default the installer does not set this up?
[18:49] <dax> linux has defaulted to relatime for years
[18:49] <OerHeks> no need for noatime, ssds today don't wear out like the first series.
[18:49] <dax> relatime is noatime except it still writes atime in some cases for compatibility, but it's not enough to matter for ssds
[18:49] <dax> plus what OerHeks said
[18:50] <dax> you seriously don't need to do anything special
[18:50] <dax> despite what the piles and piles of blogspam online will tell you
[18:50] <ubuntu064> ok guys then looks like I'm fine with default
[18:50] <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] <OerHeks> even my 5 year old  60gb ADATA ssd still works fine, i bought a new one because i want 256 gb.
[18:51] <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] <OerHeks> go for it :-)
[18:52] <ubuntu064> probably repeating this question - twould be really useful to have article about ssd's on Ubuntu official wiki
[18:53] <ubuntu064> and yeah pile of online articles that are just waste of time
[18:54] <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] <dax> so much this ^
[18:58] <jhutchins_wk> ubuntu064: There's not much relevant about ssds these days, they're just storage devices.
[18:58] <jhutchins_wk> ubuntu064: Most of the stuff about them needing special tuning is obsolete.
[18:59] <MelRay> I'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?
[19:00] <arvat> exit
[19:00] <akik> MelRay: when you add the new physical volume to your volume group, it's not allocated anywhere
[19:01] <akik> MelRay: it will just increase the total capacity of that volume group
[19:02] <MelRay> akik: 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] <akik> MelRay: you can use lvextend to increase the size of a logical volume
[19:03] <akik> MelRay: sorry i don't know anything about that gui app
[19:03] <ioria> !info system-config-lvm
[19:03] <MelRay> akik: Cool thanks once the command is issued (I'll read the man page)
[19:04] <MelRay> ioria: Thank you as well
[19:04] <ioria> MelRay, np
[19:07] <ioria> MelRay, this helped me once   http://askubuntu.com/questions/165731/move-free-space-out-of-lvm
[19:08] <MelRay> ioria: Got it....will read up...just trying to add the extra storage capacity to be allocated as needed...
[19:10] <ioria> MelRay,  there is also the  #lvm channel
[19:11] <MelRay> ioria: K will check it out...reading the article now

[19:27] <teknoprep> hi all.. with an nvidia gtx950... does it take awhile to get to the startup screen on intial installation from DVD ?
[19:27] <sanitypassing> hi, 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 the
[19:27] <sanitypassing> server we use to deploy our lab projects on, but I can't seem to find the exact name of the package I need. Could someone possibly point me in the right direction?
[19:28] <sanitypassing> well that was longer than I thought. D:
[19:28] <Kartagis> following https://www.maketecheasier.com/create-a-mac-entry-in-grub2/, how do I figure out what X should be?
[19:29] <ioria> teknoprep, you mean the installation does not start ?
[19:29] <sanitypassing> if it matters, the version of Ubuntu that I'll be running is 16.04
[19:29] <teknoprep> ioria, correct.. its been like 10 minutes
[19:29] <teknoprep> ioria, dvd-rom keeps reading data every now and then
[19:30] <ioria> teknoprep,  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 line
[19:30] <Capum321> hello, do you know about password kerying?
[19:31] <teknoprep> ioria, i'll try that if this happens again... i just rebooted
[19:31] <shout-user> sanitypassing: http://serverfault.com/questions/544779/how-can-i-install-apache-with-a-specific-version
[19:32] <ioria> teknoprep,  maxwell is problematic
[19:32] <teknoprep> maxwell ?
[19:32] <ioria> teknoprep,  thee 950m chipset
[19:32] <teknoprep> ahh the nvidia car
[19:32] <sanitypassing> shout-user: is there any way to get that information without apt-cache? I'm using vagrant to set this all up, so the system doesn't actually exist yet.
[19:34] <shout-user> http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[19:34] <appeltabak> Hi, i
[19:35] <sanitypassing> shout-user: I didn't see anywhere on that site that listed available versions of a package.
[19:39] <wendico> Good afternoon all, i have a dual boot ubuntu-windows 10. I only use windows for a couple of games. My windows installation crashed and is not booting and needs reinstall. Will windows 10 installation make my ubuntu 16 unbootable?? do i need to reinstall grub?? im scared i wont know how to do it and i rather have ubuntu working than windows
[19:39] <richmond> hello room
[19:40] <teknoprep> can i install ubuntu on ZFS ?
[19:40] <EriC^^> wendico: yeah you'll need to reinstall grub, it's very easy if you have a live usb
[19:40] <teknoprep> root partition
[19:40] <wendico> thank you EriC, i do have a live ubuntu 16 ready, should i google for reinstalling grub from live??
[19:41] <ioria> !zfs | teknoprep
[19:42] <teknoprep> thanks
[19:42] <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 that
[19:42] <EriC^^> wendico: if you have problems join the channel and you should be good :)
[19:43] <wendico> Thank you very much, ill check the info, go forward with installation and boot live to install grub, if i got any problem i will join again. THANK U Very much for the help! i love ubuntu channel :)
[19:44] <hai> hi, can anyone explain to me how can i watch streams on ubuntu without the lag?
[19:44] <EriC^^> wendico: no problem :)
[19:45] <Kartagis> following https://www.maketecheasier.com/create-a-mac-entry-in-grub2/, how do I figure out what X should be?
[19:45] <teknoprep> ioria, nomodeset worked... thanks again
[19:45] <ioria> teknoprep,  np
[19:45] <teknoprep> i guess this chipset is not supported by nouveau
[19:46] <wendico> hai: do u mean flash videos? if you got and old machine nothing but chrome (not open source) is fastest for overcome lag on flash videos, chrome includes flash player. If new machine u got to solve other problems like maybe installing the right video drivers
[19:47] <teknoprep> i have noticed that chrome installed from google.com/chrome doesn't render very well... its like it doesn't use hardware rendering or whatnot like firefox... is there a fix for htis ?
[19:48] <david_insp> hello
[19:49] <david_insp> ?
[19:49] <david_insp> some help
[19:49] <wendico> if u dont ask the question we cannot help david
[19:49] <david_insp> this chat its for doubts about ubuntu
[19:50] <Pici> !ask
[19:50] <teknoprep> for my nvidia cards.. should i get the drivers from nvidia or use the ones in PPA ?
[19:50] <meshuggah> !patience
[19:50] <david_insp> ok
[19:50] <david_insp> i need to install netflix
[19:50] <meshuggah> use chrome
[19:51] <apb1963_> My puter crashed, considering I can boot an old root... I assume it's my diskbq
[19:52] <apb1963_> *splat*  I assume it's my disk.
[19:52] <slicktux> apb1963_: my puter crashed also, and I chrooted to solve the problem; bad kernel config in my part.
[19:53] <slicktux> apb1963_: ew, dd-rescue that sucka.
[19:53] <slicktux> apb1963_: 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?
[19:54] <apb1963_> is dd-resuce better than fsck?
[19:54] <slicktux> apb1963_: fiel systems should be the same, so yerrrs.
[19:54] <apb1963_> cool
[19:55] <apb1963_> anyone else have an opinion?  Just so I have two? :)
[19:56] <Bashing-om> apb1963_: A quicky : terminal command ' sudo touch /forcefsck ' and renoot .. a light check will be run upon boot up .
[19:56] <slicktux> apb1963_: 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 recovery
[19:56] <apb1963_> Bashing-om: slicktux: excellent info!  Thank you!
[19:56] <slicktux> apb1963_: dd-rescue is for when all else has failed
[19:57] <slicktux> apb1963_: && yer doing a data recovery.
[19:57] <apb1963_> guess I stlil have a minute then.
[19:57] <slicktux> apb1963_: gl
[19:57] <apb1963_> I think it's only the boot partition
[19:57] <apb1963_> Or... I'm hoping.
[19:57] <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] <slicktux> apb1963_: hope is detrimental;
[19:57] <slicktux> ;)
[19:57] <apb1963_> well... i'll find out soon enough
[19:59] <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 devices
[19:59] <apb1963_> Bashing-om: I was thinking to simulate it
[20:00] <slicktux> BluesKaj_: ls /dev/sd*
[20:00] <apb1963_> Bashing-om: and go from there
[20:00] <slicktux> BluesKaj_: might be listed there... then you mount manually
[20:00] <slicktux> BluesKaj_: most likely /dev/sdb
[20:00] <binary01> hi 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?
[20:01] <slicktux> BluesKaj_: heck maybe gparted might show it listed as well. . .;)
[20:02] <slicktux> binary01: why not set the static IP with the host rather than the client?
[20:02] <ashu_> Ashu4PIAA
[20:02] <BluesKaj_> slicktux, yeah it could be /dev/sdb, since this whole drive is sda
[20:02] <abaldygle> binary01:  Sure the ip is not in use elsewhere on the net?
[20:02] <slicktux> BluesKaj_: hdparm -I /dev/sdb will tell ya... becarefull with hdparm though
[20:03] <BluesKaj_> slicktux, gparted doesn't show it at all
[20:03] <slicktux> BluesKaj_: ya shure? you click the drop down menue?
[20:03] <BluesKaj_> slicktux, ls /dev/sd* lists a /dev/sdb
[20:03] <sanitypassing> okay, 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?
[20:04] <slicktux> BluesKaj_: then that might be it. try hdparm -I /dev/sdb and at the top it will tell ya
[20:04] <binary01> abadygle: yes there are no other connections using that ip
[20:04] <BluesKaj_> yeah there's no drop down, slicktux
[20:04] <Bashing-om> apb1963_: I would start at ' /forcefsck ' see what it has to say ,, and progressivly get the more aggresive as the need 'may' arise .
[20:09] <Vad3r> is there some sort of software that'll create effects for videos and stuff? sorry, noob question.
[20:10] <PickledEggs> binary01 - output of ifconfig? as someone else asked, any reason you're not setting the static ip at the host?
[20:11] <Sagar> is there a way we could limit folder size?
[20:11] <Sagar> i mean a folder size should not exceed
[20:11] <Sagar> quote
[20:11] <Sagar> quota*
[20:14] <noManLand> hola
[20:14] <PickledEggs> Sagar: take a look here http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialQuotas.html
[20:15] <binary01> slicktux, ill try that but what could be causing the OS to do that?
[20:15] <teknoprep> i can't get any of the monitors connected to my 2nd video card to turn on
[20:16] <teknoprep> 2x nvidia gtx 950
[20:16] <teknoprep> nvidia drivers intalled
[20:17] <slicktux> binary01: 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.
[20:23] <binary01> slicktux, thanks for your help
[20:28] <appeltabak> Hi, i'm not sure if this is the right place to answer my question, but here it is: whats the way to go to download and install get-pip.py in a one-liner in bash? i've tried 'curl -sSL https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | python' but that doesn't work
[20:30] <Guest27739> 1
[20:30] <apb1963_> Bashing-om: It gets as far as "Stopping System V runlevel compatibility" and then just sits...
[20:31] <th0r> appeltabak, just a guess......wget http:s//..... | python get-pip.py
[20:32] <apb1963_> appeltabak: #bash is a better place... but you might try python `curl -sSL https:...`  Note the back quotes
[20:32] <nacc> appeltabak: why wouldn't you just install pip?
[20:33] <jwhisnant> appeltabak: probably #python, but installing seems more usual with apt-get install python-pip or (python3-pip)
[20:35] <appeltabak> nacc: as stated by the docs, it´s the recommend way, as version of pip in the repositories is often outdated
[20:35] <MonkeyDust> apb1963_  backticks are now replaced by $[foo]
[20:35] <MonkeyDust> apb1963_  backticks are now replaced by $(foo)     <-- correction
[20:36] <Bashing-om> apb1963_: 16.04 ?? then yeah systemd does not do upstart scripts .
[20:36] <appeltabak> th0r: eeh, 'wget' with certain options? otherwise, i've tried that and didn' work
[20:36] <nacc> appeltabak: uh, *maybe* true -- but i don't think most people have any problem with it. And if you did have an actual problem with the distribution version, file a bug.
[20:42] <apb1963_> Bashing-om: no.  14.04
[20:42] <teknoprep> is it possible to run six monitors on ubuntu with 2 video cards without xinerama ?
[20:43] <apb1963_> Bashing-om: And I don't know what you're referencing.
[20:43] <jwhisnant> appeltabak: what "docs"?
[20:44] <appeltabak> jwhisnant: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/
[20:44] <nacc> appeltabak: don't those same docs say not use it if you're using a distro-provided python?
[20:46] <Bashing-om> apb1963_: Activat a terminal in 14.04 ( upstart as the init system ) and execute ' sudo touch /forcedsck ' ; ' sudo shutdown -r now ' . A file system check should now be conducted upon the new boot up .
[20:46] <jwhisnant> appeltabak: the usual thing to do is create a virtualenv and do development there; and upgrade the pip in your virtualenv using pip - it is likely to even provide the specific command
[20:47] <Bashing-om> forcefsck*
[20:47] <Homely_Girl> Greetings oh holders of knowledge! :) I am having trouble upgrading my Ubuntu to the latest.  I have an error msg.
[20:48] <appeltabak> jwhisnant: thats right, my routine is to install pip and subsequently install virtualenv using pip
[20:48] <th0r> appeltabak, I am not inclined to install it, but wget without options just fetched that file from the command line in a terminal
[20:49] <nacc> Homely_Girl: what is the message (perhaps use a pastebin)
[20:49] <Homely_Girl> nacc, It's not a lot "required depends not installed"
[20:49] <appeltabak> jwhisnant: because i thought that virtualenv needs pip globbally installed
[20:50] <nacc> Homely_Girl: that is probably not the entire message. Please pastebin the exact command used and the resulting output.
[20:51] <jwhisnant> appeltabak: not required, but probably easiest. why do you want a one-liner bash install? is that the end goal or do you just want the latest pip version?
[20:51] <Homely_Girl> nacc, I was not doing this from command level but following a prompt on booting up to upgrade.  I will use the pastebin to show you my screen shot
[20:51] <Homely_Girl> !pastebin
[20:52] <PickledEggs> !pastebinit
[20:52] <PickledEggs> woah! cool.
[20:53] <OerHeks> or use: command | nc termbin.com 9999  # without installing anything
[20:54] <Homely_Girl> nacc, It's a screen shot, how do I upload that to pastebin? Sorry I've not done any of this for a while!
[20:54] <UTAN_dev_> Newbie question: is x11vnc only used to share a physical screen? (My Linux laptop has a 1366x768 screen and I want a larger desktop when remotely accessing it)
[20:55] <nacc> Homely_Girl: it was in the !pastebin help (use imgur)
[20:56] <Homely_Girl> nacc, Thanks, I'll look into this tmr I think, is getting late 'n I frustrated with myself :(
[20:56] <Homely_Girl> nacc, Thanks anyways
[20:58] <UTAN_dev_> AFK for a few minutes, but will check in when I come back. Thanks!
[20:59] <appeltabak> jwhisnant: i know, it's a overkill approach but i'm using it i a bash script to fetch the latest release
[20:59] <appeltabak> jwhisnant: and i think this should work ;)
[20:59] <jwhisnant> appeltabak: ok. good luck.
[21:00] <appeltabak> jwhisnant: ty
[21:07] <BrianH> Hey guys.  Are there any good sites like distrowatch, but for linux Apps?
[21:07] <BrianH> Or even like macupdate.com as a better example.
[21:08] <zero_shane> hey all - I inherited a Trusty image that I am now curating - the previous owner set the boot up process to be completely silent - just a blinking cursor in the upper left corner - no startup script output at all - I can't for the life of me determine where it's set to silent - grub? somewhere else?
[21:09] <zero_shane> any input / ideas / pointers - gratefully appreciated - would like to see what the hell the systems are doing on startup/shutdown ...
[21:09] <tekisui> hello
[21:09] <tekisui> :)
[21:09] <YankDownUnder> zero_shane: Yes...in grub
[21:10] <tekisui> downloaded this : Downloading vlc-2.2.4.tar.xz
[21:10] <tekisui> then did ./configure
[21:10] <tekisui> and then tried ¨make¨
[21:10] <tekisui> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[21:10] <YankDownUnder> tekisui: You know that VLC is part of the software packages for Ubuntu, right?
[21:11] <tekisui> yes
[21:12] <YankDownUnder> tekisui: Being that you're "compiling from the source tarballs", that would be a question to ask either in the #vlc channels, or look through the wiki on the vlc site for specific information pertaining to compiling from the sources...
[21:13] <zero_shane> @YankDownUnder - I've been throug /etc/default/grub /boot/grub/grub.cfg - and can't identify the offending setting - any input on the settings that I'm missing??
[21:13] <zero_shane> http://pastebin.com/QqJzBAXr
[21:14] <tekisui> ubuntu is OpenSuSE  ?
[21:14] <tekisui> ok.
[21:16] <YankDownUnder> zero_shane: Firstly, the "GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true" can be commented out...
[21:16] <zero_shane> copy that
[21:19] <Capum321> hello, do you know about password kerying? how to change password, disable it, sort setup it
[21:19] <k1l_> Capum321: usually that is the same as the users pw
[21:19] <Capum321> no, it's something else.
[21:19] <Capum321> nothing to do with my user pass
[21:20] <k1l_> on a regular ubuntu setup that is. what ubuntu and what desktop do you use?
[21:20] <YankDownUnder> zero_shane: When you're AT the grub "menu" during boot, you can directly edit the default entry...(or any entry, really)...and I'll assume from looking through the paste that "Appliance System" is the default?
[21:20] <Capum321> k1l_: lts 16.04
[21:20] <zero_shane> correct
[21:20] <k1l_> did you change your users password?
[21:20] <Capum321> k1l it first prompted when I started working with svn in terminal
[21:21] <YankDownUnder> zero_shane: If you've got a few minutes, you might want to read through this: http://www.howtogeek.com/196655/how-to-configure-the-grub2-boot-loaders-settings/
[21:21] <Capum321> and it's not the svn host pw either
[21:21] <tekisui> doeiiiiiiiii
[21:21] <k1l_> Capum321: that is a svn issue: http://askubuntu.com/questions/206604/svn-and-gnome-keyring
[21:22] <tekisui> ubuntu drives me #%⁶555 but hell the sound is working :DD
[21:25] <lone-genius> hi
[21:27] <lone-genius> I 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 fine
[21:28] <YankDownUnder> lone-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.
[21:29] <lone-genius> alredy installed it
[21:29] <YankDownUnder> lone-genius: And you've run it whilst the tellie is plugged in...hmm?
[21:30] <lone-genius> how do i use it???
[21:30] <Capum321> k1l_:### 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-genius> ive been through many settings and everything???
[21:30] <lone-genius> also looked on google
[21:33] <YankDownUnder> lone-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?
[21:34] <Capum321> k1l ok, it's gnome keyring
[21:34] <k1l_> Capum321: what desktop do you use?
[21:34] <pingpin> Capum321: so
[21:35] <Capum321> lxde
[21:35] <lone-genius> nope
[21:35] <pingpin> lone-genius: I smarter than you
[21:36] <lone-genius> when i did it, it moved my scrren and if i dragged my mouse over it was like i had an extra screen however it did not show it on the tv
[21:36] <lone-genius> i was not appliying that i was supurior
[21:36] <lone-genius> see im bad at spelling lol
[21:36] <k1l_> Capum321: the experiences say you need to make that line: " password-stores =".
[21:36] <k1l_> lone-genius: what video card and what driver?
[21:36] <pingpin> Capum321: what?
[21:37] <Capum321> i see, but i would like to remove as it seems to be a daemon?
[21:37] <lone-genius> it had worked before on this same tv last week
[21:37] <YankDownUnder> lone-genius: What desktop are you using?
[21:37] <pingpin> YankDownUnder: kde
[21:37] <lone-genius> laptop...HP
[21:37] <lone-genius> notebook
[21:37] <k1l_> Capum321: first try to edit the ~/.subversion/config
[21:38] <k1l_> pingpin: please keep this channel clear for helpful support. thanks
[21:39] <lone-genius> can anyone help me out???
[21:39] <YankDownUnder> lone-genius: I meant what "desktop environment"...like Unity or XFce or whatever?
[21:39] <lone-genius> UBUNTU 16.04 LTS
[21:39] <lone-genius> srry didnt mean the caps
 lone-genius: what video card and what driver?
[21:39] <kogmo> !nouveau
[21:39] <lone-genius> idk...but it did work lastweek on the same tv with the same hdmi
[21:40] <OerHeks> lone-genius, did you check the FN key for internal/external screen
[21:40] <lone-genius> idk what that is OerHeks
[21:40] <k1l_> lone-genius: "my car is broken" "what car do you have?" "it worked last week" :)
[21:40] <k1l_> lone-genius: we can only guess to help you if you dont answer the questions for facts :)
[21:40] <lone-genius> drivers and video cards dont change over week
[21:40] <OerHeks> most laptops have a FN key + a row with special commands, depends on what laptop
[21:41] <Capum321> k1l 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.
[21:42] <lone-genius> i alredy updated and upgradded it via terminal and restarted my computer
[21:42] <anabain> lone-genius, consider installing proprietary nvidia drivers and also getting a brand new kernel, http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/05/install-linux-kernel-4-6-ubuntu-16-04/
[21:42] <penguim> Hey guys, can I install gedit 3.18 from Xenial in Trusty (using gedit 3.10) ??  Not sure it it somehow
[21:43] <nacc> penguim: not recommended
[21:43] <OerHeks> nacc +1
[21:43] <k1l_> penguim: dont mix ubuntu releases. that doesnt work due to depencies
[21:43] <Capum321> Your password can only be stored to disk unencrypted!  You are advised to configure your system so that Subversion can store passwords encrypted, if possible.  See the documentation for details. -> it's is referring the man pages?
[21:45] <Capum321> k1l_, is it a daemon service after all?
[21:45] <lone-genius> NOTHING still
[21:45] <lone-genius> *nothing
[21:46] <nacc> anabain: i wouldn't recommend a 'new kernel' unless you know exactly what you are suggesting and why for lone-genius' problem?
[21:46] <lone-genius> cd /tmp/
[21:46] <lone-genius> wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-yakkety/linux-headers-4.6.0-040600_4.6.0-040600.201605151930_all.deb
[21:46] <lone-genius> wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-yakkety/linux-headers-4.6.0-040600-generic_4.6.0-040600.201605151930_amd64.deb

[21:46] <k1l_> Capum321: gnome-keyring? yes. that is the standard password manager that gets unlocked when you login and that got the most passwords for wifi etc. the issue is not the keyring manager, the issue is svn having a strange setup.
[21:46] <lone-genius> sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[21:46] <lone-genius> and still nothing??!?!?!
[21:47] <nacc> lone-genius: don't spam the channel, please
[21:47] <nacc> lone-genius: use a pastebin for multiple lines
[21:47] <Capum321> thats got a higher level of clarity now
[21:48] <k1l_> changing to an unstable kernel and guessing to install some nvidia driver is very vague, imho
[21:48] <nacc> k1l_: +1
[21:48] <Capum321> k1l_: +1
[21:49] <OerHeks> you better check the manual of your laptop for that FN key
[21:49] <stoopkid> hello, i have a sony vaio laptop that i just installed ubuntu 14.04 on, and i can't figure out how to get wi-fi set up on it
[21:49] <Capum321> hey nacc, gpg not good, need some on the fly encrypt/decrypt
[21:49] <nacc> Capum321: i see, I don't know much about that, sorry :/
[21:49] <stoopkid> i can find drivers from the sony website, but they say they're for windows
[21:50] <Capum321> nacc, i should search those keywords and see what they have for me
[21:50] <k1l_> stoopkid: which line in "lspci" is the wifi card? can you show it here? (the one line)
[21:51] <penguim> Hey guys, can I install gedit 3.18 from Xenial in Trusty (using gedit 3.10) ??  Not sure it it somehow
[21:51] <penguim> sorry didnt see the below answer before
[21:51] <k1l_> penguim: no you cant
[21:51] <penguim> ouch..
[21:52] <penguim> that show grid pattern is really cool
[21:52] <stoopkid> k1l_: "02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM43142 802.11b/g/n (rev 01)" i think it's this one
[21:52] <Ben64> you could upgrade to 16.04 though
[21:52] <penguim> I can't.. it's my company laptop
[21:52] <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 14.04
[21:52] <penguim> it's locked to trusty LTS
[21:53] <OerHeks> don't mess with company laptops.
[21:53] <lone-genius> lol
[21:53] <k1l_> stoopkid: what is the output of "uname -a"?
[21:53] <penguim> lol
[21:54] <penguim> yeah I don't wanna mess with that.. just installed xenial in my personal one, and loved this new version
[21:54] <penguim> of gedit
[21:54] <stoopkid> "Linux stoopkid-SVF15323CXW 4.2.0-42-generic #49~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 29 20:22:11 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux", wow this task-scheduler is starting to make me regret choosing ubuntu
[21:55] <k1l_> stoopkid: did you install a 14.04.4 iso?
[21:55] <stoopkid> yea
[21:56] <k1l_> well, that kernel is already outdated :) upgrade to the xenial stack (4.4 kernel)
[21:57] <penguim> if I install Trusty in a VM and try this gedit from Xenial .. is this a test good enough before updating on real computer?
[21:57] <Bashing-om> !wily | stoopkid
[21:58] <k1l_> stoopkid: do you have internet with a lan cable?
[21:59] <stoopkid> yea
[21:59] <kogmo> !eol | stoopkid
[21:59] <k1l_> !hwe
[22:00] <k1l_> stoopkid: then first upgrade your kernels to the xenial stack, like its mentioned here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[22:00] <k1l_> stoopkid: if that wifi is still not working after a reboot we willl have a look again.
[22:00] <stoopkid> hrm
[22:01] <stoopkid> i chose 14.04 over 16.04 cause my device doesn't have the capacity to support 16.04
[22:02] <lone-genius> i 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)
[22:03] <lone-genius> wrong hdmi on my tv...LMFAO!...thanks guys
[22:04] <stoopkid> woops, i was looking at the recommended system capacity, not the minimum required, okay im gonna give xenial a shot then and see how that works
[22:04] <anderson_> hey
[22:05] <Bashing-om> lone-genius: Great, thanks for sharing what the resolution is .
[22:07] <stoopkid> alright, trying to figure out how to upgrade the kernel now
[22:07] <mcars> what is the newest version of ubuntu im trying to update i have ver,  14.04 lts
[22:08] <k1l_> !hwe | stoopkid
[22:08] <k1l_> mcars: 16.04 is the newest. you can use the LTS upgrade from 14.04
[22:08] <mcars> thankfor the help
[22:12] <iv> hello,im trying to understand what is better for sopcast,linux mint xfce or xubuntu,,now im with xubuntu
[22:13] <OerHeks> wait, is mint linux?
[22:13] <stoopkid> k1l_: alright rebooting now
[22:13] <daynaskully> {Q} How might I simply extend my current LVM partition to take up the entire disk via commandline?
[22:13] <iv> as i check,yes
[22:13]  * stoopkid crosses fingers
[22:14] <iv> debian based?
[22:15] <k1l_> iv: we can only handle (X)ubuntu in here. for mint issues please ask ##linux or the mint channels
[22:16] <iv> thanks Kil,i tryed mint,its almost same,just if im using same browsers,sometimes chromium slows my sistem on xubuntu,sopcast exactly
[22:17] <mr_Ghost> hello last night i accidentaly turned the power strip off for my lan.. since then ubuntu has been crashing when play videos such as hulu or youtube.. but not at first only after like 15 mins or so.. i was wondering is there a way to check the logs for that problem and how
[22:17] <iv> and when im copying pictures,folder gone away,if you understand me
[22:17] <iv> im with core2duo,2,66mhz,4mb cache
[22:18] <stoopkid> k1l_: alright i'm connected through wifi :) thank you very much, i would've never thought to upgrade the kernel
[22:19] <motaka2> how to install pdo for mysql on ubuntu 14.04 , none of the ways in we worked so far
[22:19] <Bashing-om> mr_Ghost: In the event of a sudden loss of power, the 1st thing to do upon rebooting os to check bios settings, and next is to run a file system check on 'buntu file system  .
[22:19] <k1l_> stoopkid: hehe, while that was mandatory due to the old kernel doesnt get any security updates, the new kernel has better hardware support most times. so its worth a try
[22:20] <ssc_> Trying to open vlc on ubuntu 16.04 but it doesn't open
[22:20] <OerHeks> daynaskully, comandline is not that easy, there is a gui however .. http://askubuntu.com/questions/196125/how-can-i-resize-an-lvm-partition-i-e-physical-volume
[22:20] <iv> ssc,what version you using
[22:20] <stoopkid> k1l_: i'll have to keep that in mind, i'm sure i'll be in this situation again one day hehe
[22:20] <ssc_> These are the logs http://pastebin.com/NrC9PAbA
[22:21] <stoopkid> anyway thanks again, have a good day
[22:21] <k1l_> ssc_: can you show the whole log in a pastebin?
[22:21] <ssc_> This is the whole log /var/log/syslog
[22:22] <ssc_> iv: using 16.04 ubuntu version, vlc VLC media player 2.2.2 Weatherwax (revision 2.2.2-0-g6259d80)
[22:22] <mr_Ghost> Bashing-om im sure bios is fine.. i just want to know what log i would look at to see the problem and how
[22:23] <iv> ssc,i installed vls from ubuntu software center
[22:23] <iv> without problems
[22:23] <ssc_> It was working fine until few days ago, not sure what happened
[22:23] <OerHeks> !vlc

[22:25] <ssc_> 0erHeks: :(
[22:25] <k1l_> ssc_: so what linux is that in real?
[22:26] <ssc_> k1l_: What do you mean `what linux is that in real`?
[22:26] <OerHeks> kodi i guess...
[22:26] <k1l_> ssc_: "lsb_release -sd"?
[22:26] <ssc_> Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
[22:26] <Bashing-om> mr_Ghost: Log files are in /var/log/ directory .. ya want to pay attention to dmesg, syslog and kernlog .
[22:27] <mr_Ghost> when they are gz how do you look at em
[22:27] <mr_Ghost> can you still just nano it
[22:27] <mr_Ghost> the syslogs i looked at were blank
[22:28] <mr_Ghost> is there a certain cmd you are supposed to use to view the logs
[22:28] <Surfer2010> I'm looking for a server like picapport that can also save tags in the metadata like exiftool
[22:29] <Bashing-om> mr_Ghost: server ? then will have to decompress the logs . However, compressing the logs, only old old logs are compressed generally .
[22:29] <mr_Ghost> gotcha
[22:29] <mr_Ghost> wonder why syslog is blank
[22:29] <mr_Ghost> wonder if im compromised
[22:29] <ssc_> k1l_: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
[22:30] <OerHeks> ssc_, how did you build vlc?
[22:30] <Bashing-om> mr_Ghost: ' less ' works real well to read files .
[22:30] <motaka2> how to install pdo for mysql on ubuntu 14.04 , none of the ways in we worked so far
[22:30] <k1l_> ssc_: anything more in syslog?
[22:30] <mr_Ghost> okay thankyou for your help
[22:30] <ssc_> I installed that from software center OerHeks
[22:30] <mr_Ghost> i appreciate it
[22:30] <mr_Ghost> rock on
[22:30] <ssc_> k1l_: I tried but no, nothing else is there in logs
[22:31] <OerHeks> ssc_, tons of bugreports for your version .. i wonder how you get it
[22:32] <k1l_> ssc_: please show in a pastebin "sudo apt update && apt-cache policy vlc"
[22:32] <Surfer2010> I have no idea where to look for this ... because most store it in a db like mysql
[22:32] <ssc_> k1l_: Let me do that
[22:33] <mr_Ghost> Bashing-om sorry im gonna bug you again.. syslog is just called syslog in my dir than i have syslog.1 and the others are .gz but whats up with that if you dont mind me asking
[22:34] <mr_Ghost> Bashing-om shouldnt it be syslog.log
[22:34] <OerHeks> mr_Ghost, logrotate, current and previous log is uncompressed, after that it compresses to .gz
[22:34] <ssc_> k1l_: http://pastebin.com/iLcd8E4n
[22:34] <maxcell_> There is any way to run VDPAU in Totem?
[22:34] <k1l_> mr_Ghost: they are packed to safe space.
[22:35] <k1l_> mr_Ghost: and file endings are a windows thing, not a linux thing. if its a textfile the filending is not needed at all.
[22:35] <mr_Ghost> then why the name syslog.1 and not syslog.log
[22:35] <mr_Ghost> both show blank screens
[22:35] <mr_Ghost> when i know there should be somethign there
[22:35] <ssc_> syslog.1 is archive version where as syslog.log is current
[22:36] <mr_Ghost> how do i read the syslog.1
[22:36] <mr_Ghost> nano showed nothing
[22:36] <nacc> k1l_: OerHeks: fwiw, this is waht `vlc --version` says in 16.04: VLC version 2.2.2 Weatherwax (2.2.2-0-g6259d80)
[22:36] <nacc> just checked in a fresh 16.04 container
[22:36] <k1l_> nacc: yeah
[22:37] <nacc> so probably the -5 is a debian versioning, and the -0 is maybe upstream(ish)? dunno for sure without digging into it more
[22:37] <OerHeks> ssc_, i see it here now, strange, you do have 2.2.2-5 ...
[22:38] <ssc_> OerHeks: I got it but how to change it now :D
[22:38] <OerHeks> ssc_, maybe this helps: clean the ~/.config/vlc folder and restart vlc?
[22:39] <k1l_> ssc_: after that start "vlc" from a terminal and see what error it shows there.
[22:39] <ssc_> OerHeks: Cleaned and still nothing, same error
[22:39] <Surfer2010> I'm looking for a server like picapport that can also save tags in the metadata like exiftool
[22:40] <ssc_> k1l_: http://pastebin.com/QcaFC5SG
[22:40] <Surfer2010> Web browser gallery which saves tags given to a picture in the files and not a db
[22:40] <Bashing-om> mr_Ghost: My system " -rw-r-----  1 syslog adm      95391 Sep  7 17:17 syslog " : ' less /var/log/syslog ' to view .
[22:41] <k1l_> ssc_: what desktop is in use?
[22:41] <OerHeks> Surfer2010, http://www.picapport.de/photo-server-faq.php gives the answer, you can run the .jar on a headless (ubuntu)server
[22:42] <maxcell_> There is any way to run VDPAU in Totem?
[22:42] <ssc_> k1l_ I am sorry but do you mean hardware?
[22:42] <Surfer2010> But it stores tags not in the file but a db or XML file
[22:43] <k1l_> ssc_: no, which desktop environment. kde, gnome, mate, xfce, unity, lxde...
[22:44] <ssc_> It says, ubuntu
[22:44] <ssc_> This command: echo $DESKTOP_SESSION
[22:44] <k1l_> ok, thats unity most times
[22:45] <k1l_> vlc --reset-config --reset-plugins-cache
[22:45] <CodFection> iPhone 7 is out :) when is new ubuntu phone coming out?
[22:45] <k1l_> try that
[22:45] <ssc_> I think yes, I have installed unity8 as well, although I don't use it because that has too much bugs in that, I always use this one
[22:45] <mr_Ghost> thankyou again Bashing-om
[22:45] <Surfer2010> OerHeks: you know what my "problem" is?
[22:45] <ssc_> k1l_: Command provided ended up with same error as starting vlc from command line
[22:46] <k1l_> hmm
[22:46] <OerHeks> Surfer2010, i thought you were fond of picaport ..
[22:46] <nacc> CodFection: offtopic?
[22:47] <CodFection> nacc, my bad.
[22:47] <CodFection> I cant see resolution of my monitor on ubuntu
[22:47] <CodFection> 1024 is the max resolution it shows. how to fix it?
[22:47] <ssc_> May be, I purge vlc and re-install?
[22:47] <k1l_> ssc_: worth a try
[22:48] <maxcell_> how can i make the "mplayer" start on the center of my screen when i run it on the terminal? (not fullscreen, just centralized)
[22:48] <Surfer2010> I don't care what software ... but like picapport a Web gallery with tags. .. but those should be written to the files ... so they are not dependend  on the db OerHeks
[22:48] <k1l_> ssc_: i dont find any others having that issue. did you change the kernel, or change something with libstdc++?
[22:49] <ssc_> As per my knowledge, no. But I usually do not care much while updating my system, so probably this is a lesson for me :D
[22:49] <maxcell_> ssc_, what issue you are having?
[22:49] <maxcell_> ssc_, with vlc
[22:49] <ssc_> maxcell_: It won't start
[22:50] <ssc_> And I have posted the logs in pastebin above, if you want to look, I can paste here again?
[22:50] <maxcell_> ssc_, no error on the terminal output when you type vlc?
[22:50] <ssc_> There are errors
[22:51] <Bashing-om> mr_Ghost: Look, I go through a sudden loss of power often enough I have learned ,, will mess up bios .. and always always run a file system check/repair .
[22:51] <maxcell_> i probably dont know how to fix, since i uninstall my vlc a minute ago because i was having some issues too ssc_
[22:51] <ssc_> Okay, I am uninstalling too :D
[22:52] <ssc_> k1l_ seems like I did something with kernel because auto-remove output logs are too scary :D
[22:52] <maxcell_> ssc_, i was trying to watch a movie with VDPAU (harware acceleration using graphics card) and the video was all broken with artifacts on the screen a lot of squares during the movie you know what im talking?
[22:53] <ssc_> Never experienced maxcell_
[22:53] <k1l_> maxcell_: intel card?
[22:53] <maxcell_> nvidia card!
[22:53] <maxcell_> than i download the beautifull mplayer and, "mplayer -vo vdpau" goes very well no problem at all!
[22:54] <maxcell_> really dont know why VLC have those issues
[22:55] <ssc_> k1l_ wow what the hell. After reinstall, same error
[22:55] <k1l_> !bug | ssc_
[22:56] <k1l_> i would submit a bugreport and see what the maintainers say about that. i dont know too much specifics from vlc
[22:57] <ssc_> k1l_: Okay, thanks a lot for your time.
[23:00] <maxcell_> hey
[23:00] <maxcell_> i need a little help
[23:00] <maxcell_> :~
[23:01] <Bashing-om> !ask | maxcell_
[23:02] <Capum321> !nomodeset
[23:02] <maxcell_> i'm trying to make "mplayer" my default video player on ubuntu, but i dont use any GTK backend, i use the classic "mplayer" in the terminal, and it do not appear on the Default Applications.
[23:03] <Capum321> maxcell_: u want it on the menu?
[23:03] <Capum321> never mind
[23:04] <maxcell_> Capum321, i want to both click in the Video File and Run mplayer. I also try to Right click the Video and goes to "Open With..." but mplayer doesnt show in the menu and it does not have a space for me to type the code "mplayer" aswell..
[23:06] <BrianH> maxcell_: what are you using without gtk?
[23:06] <maxcell_> BrianH, i'm using the classic mplayer, without any graphical backends
[23:07] <BrianH> I don't understand what that means.  You're playing videos without a GUI?
[23:07] <Capum321> maxcell_: askubuntu.com/questions/548503/
[23:07] <maxcell_> Capum321, in this case it has a graphical interface
[23:07] <maxcell_> i dont want to use gnome-mplayer, i want use mplayer
[23:08] <Capum321> maxcell_: did you check the site?
[23:08] <maxcell_> just that single window mplayer, without graphical interface
[23:08] <maxcell_> Capum321, i already know this site, i have seeing it today already
[23:09] <maxcell_> Capum321, omg,
[23:09] <maxcell_> Capum321, the answer is right among
[23:09] <maxcell_> Capum321, sorry
[23:09] <maxcell_> Capum321, didnt realize until now
[23:09] <Capum321> all right, next
[23:13] <rick6860> I need an opinion about a multifunction printer issue.
[23:14] <Guest89967> I have a package called "Ubuntu Contact Service" that is alway unticked in the updater. Can I remove it?
[23:14] <maxcell_> Capum321, thanks it worked btw
[23:16] <rick6860> Can't print to Sharp mx-3050. Dealer says it's because it's not a post script printer. I say that's bunk.
[23:17] <motaka2> hello I have followed this http://askubuntu.com/questions/776164/ubuntu-14-04-problems-upgrading-php-to-5-6 to upgrade and now I dont have pfo and sudo apt-get php5-,ysql is also installed but I dont see the pdo mysql in php infi

[23:37] <amadeo> hi there
[23:37] <amadeo> was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a good site to check my hardwares compatibility with the latest ubuntu
[23:39] <compdoc> amadeo, boot your hardware using the live cd, and see
[23:45] <kernelpanic> Hello! Why does "apt-get purge apport" want to remove the ubuntu-server* package on my fresh install of ubuntu 16.04.1 server?
[23:47] <k1l> kernelpanic: maybe they depend on apport
[23:47] <k1l> yep they do
[23:49] <kernelpanic> k11, how did you find out?
[23:49] <k1l> well, that is the usual behaviour if that is a depency. and then i looked at packages.ubuntu.com
[23:50] <Exagone313> kernelpanic: if it's just a meta-package, you can safely remote it
[23:50] <Exagone313> remove*
[23:54] <kernelpanic> thanks to both of you, I got it!
