[00:16] <Guest50270> I just installed Xubuntu 14.04. The entire reason I installed 14.04 is because I want to install the fglrx graphics driver, which requires Xorg 1.17 or lower. Upon running my initial updates, Xubuntu installed xserver-xorg-core-lts-XENIAL, which is 1.18
[00:17] <Guest50270> What is the point of an LTS release if it's going to install major updates from the next release that breaks other packages?
[00:18] <Guest50270> xserver-xorg-core-lts-TRUSTY doesn't even exist in the repos anymore? And if I try to install the WILEY package, it tries to uninstall all of my graphics drivers, and most of my applications.
[00:19] <Guest50270> Great, now I'm stuck with broken packages, and can't install anything. Literally 10 minutes into an LTS install.

[02:52] <nicomachus> Which is supported in #ubuntu-touch
[02:52] <Bray90820> This is x86 ubuntu

[02:58] <lpsmith> Ok,  I'm having a problem with debootstrap;   I'm doing a root on ZFS install,  I downloaded the Ubuntu 16.04 desktop live image,  put it on a usb drive,  created my zfs filesystems on the install device...
[02:59] <lpsmith> but here's the thing,  my DSL has been down for nearly 4 weeks,  and Frontier Communications (oversimplifying _slightly_) told me they won't fix it.
[02:59] <lpsmith> (While also explicitly admitting it's their problem)
[03:00] <lpsmith> So I'm burning through wireless data quite rapidly,  and cannot afford to download the files I already downloaded in the iso a second time.
[03:00] <lpsmith> So I run
[03:01] <lpsmith> # debootstrap xenial /mnt/ file:/media/cdrom  from the live image
[03:01] <lpsmith> and AFAICT,  it basically does nothing
[03:02] <lpsmith> It finds "Release",  checks the gpg key,  and then quits after it says "I: Chosen extractor for .deb packages: dpkg-deb"
[03:02] <lpsmith> without installing a base system into /mnt/
[03:06] <andjjj23> Using aptitude, I know how to search for something with a particular origin e.g. aptitude search "?installed?origin(Debian)" How do I search for things on the 'n' field e.g. aptitude search "?installed?n(xenial)"  (doesn't work, just an example)?
[03:12] <EricBB> What could be the problem if I've got lamp on 16.04 and phpmyadmin was working fine when I set up my machine completely, then rebooted and when I log in it fails and says #2002 - No such file or directory<br />The server is not responding (or the local server's socket is not correctly configured).
[03:12] <EricBB> I've read everything on Google I can find and nothing has worked
[03:12] <andjjj23> Actually, let me outline my real problem: I'm running trusty but added the xenial repo. Things are breaking a bit now, so I want to remove xenial and all packages that I have installed from xenial. what's the best way to do this?

[03:44] <crc__> I'm using ubuntu 16.04 and I've noticed strange window behavior. Sometimes the mouse will click therough a window to the one below it and the top window won't respond for a while. For some reason the GUI just becomes interested in the window below the one I'm clicking on. Any one know how to fix this behavior?
[03:50] <crc32> In ubuntu 16.04 I've been noticing some times that when I have a window on top of another window for some reason the mouse click events will go to the bottom window and not the top window as expected. What can I do to fix this?
[03:50] <crc32> what causes this behavior?

[03:51] -Sygln:#ubuntu- [Global Notice] Freenode is currently under a Chinese-backed DDOS attack. We are working to mitigate the attack at this time.
[04:04] <crc32> In ubuntu 16.04 I've been noticing some times that when I have a window on top of another window for some reason the mouse click events will go to the bottom window and not the top window as expected. What can I do to fix this?
[04:05] <reisio> crc32: change your window manager
[04:06] <crc32> reisio: Why would you suggest a different window manager. Do you know what the issue is?
[04:07] <reisio> crc32: there's very little else to suspect for that other than the window manager
[04:08] <crc32> reisio: I like this window manager. I don't think your suggestion is a solution. Hell it barely counts as a workaround.
[04:08] <reisio> so keep using it :)
[04:09] <EricBB> if I installed mysql but cannot locate mysqld.sock with grep what can I do to fix it?
[04:09] <crc32> any one else no why mouse events would pass through a window to the one below it? Is there some kind of setting that does that?
[04:09] <reisio> EricBB: to fix what? What's the problem?
[04:10] <EricBB> reisio: mysql service wont start and reports an error related to mysqld.sock and I do not have a mysqld.sock file in my machine
[04:10] <crc32> EricBB: Whats the error saying? I can't find mysqld.sock on my system either.
[04:10] <kk4ewt> EricBB,  did you start the service
[04:10] <reisio> crc32: could look through https://www.google.com/search?q=launchpad%20compiz%20mouse%20click
[04:10] <reisio> EricBB: what error
[04:10] <EricBB>  6 down vote 	  ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can not connect to local MySQL server-through socket '/ tmp / mysql.sock
[04:10] <crc32> EricBB: Paste the error
[04:11]  * reisio shakes head
[04:11] <crc32> EricBB: Your starting it via sudo?
[04:11] <EricBB> yes
[04:12] <crc32> ???
[04:12] <EricBB> sry this is the error im getting: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[04:12] <crc32> wait is that a client connection error message or the service message.
[04:13] <EricBB> crc32: gives that error if I do sudo mysql -u root -p
[04:13] <crc32> EricBB just wondering but what does "mysql -u root -h 127.0.0.1 -p" give you?
[04:14] <crc32> it sound like the server isn't running if it says Connection refused.
[04:14] <EricBB> crc32: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[04:14] <EricBB> ah oops
[04:14] <EricBB> crc32: ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (111)
[04:14] <crc32> do a "ps -ef | grep mysqld"
[04:14] <crc32> I don't think you installed mysql-server
[04:15] <crc32> or it really didn't start
[04:15] <EricBB> crc32: i installed mysql-server-5.7 maybe i need to remove and do mysql-server?
[04:15] <crc32> no no that should have been fine. Are you on ubuntu 16.04 or what?
[04:15] <EricBB> crc32: that grep did not display mysql.sock by the way
[04:16] <EricBB> yes 16.04
[04:16] <crc32> yea it was supposed to look for the mysqld process
[04:21] <EricBB> crc32: I see, well it did give me a process number for /us/rsbin/mysqld
[04:21] <EricBB> usr*
[04:21] <EricBB> systemctl says it is failing to start
[04:21] <crc32> what does systemctl list-unit-files --type=service
[04:21] <crc32> see what the status of "mysql.service" is
[04:21] <crc32> assuming your using systemd
[04:21] <crc32> EricBB: Does it say mysql.service                              enabled?
[04:21] <crc32> cat /var/log/mysql/error.log see what its complaining about
[04:21] <crc32> danm chinese
[04:21] <EricBB> crc32: yes
[04:22] <crc32> cat /var/log/mysql/error.log hopefully it says why the service isn't starting
[04:22] <EricBB> crc32: also maybe important is that it was working when I set up my machine and stopped after i rebooted the first time
[04:24] <crc32> EricBB: Uh huh. you mean like the first reboot after it installs Grub?
[04:24] <EricBB> crc32: aha it is saying fatal error: mysql.user table is damaged and to run mysql_upgrade let me see
[04:24] <EricBB> crc32: first reboot after installing mysql
[04:25] <crc32> did you install 16.04 or upgrade to it?
[04:25] <EricBB> crc32: installed it
[04:25] <crc32> well lets see if mysql_upgrade fixes it
[04:25] <crc32> <scratches head>
[04:26] <EricBB> crc32: so mysql_upgrade is giving the same error, cannot connect with mysqld.sock
[04:26] <crc32> lol
[04:26] <EricBB> crc32: lol indeed
[04:27] <crc32> theres got to be a skip table check option to get the server up.
[04:28] <crc32> theres like an ops procedure for all this nonsense.
[04:28] <EricBB> crc32: ill google that and see what i can find
[04:29] <crc32> mysql_install_db
[04:29] <crc32> try that.
[04:29] <crc32> if that fails its time to reinstall MySQL all together
[04:30] <crc32> oops. That commands deprecated.
[04:30] <crc32> Use "mysqld --initialize"
[04:30] <EricBB> crc32: yeah thats what im thinking
[04:31] <EricBB> crc32: it failed, but i may have found a couple of other things to try
[04:31] <EricBB> crc32: give me a min I'll keep you posted if I get it working
[04:31] <crc32> ok
[04:31] <crc32> we know what the problem is at least.
[04:32] <witeshark43> skiddies
[04:42] <EricBB> crc32: looks like something to do with a column that was renamed from 5.6 to 5.7 and broke my install from upgrading... reinstalled and im going to reboot and see what I've got. Thanks for the help man

[06:06] <werdfriek> baizon: thx, but I have some third party repos that are ok and I don't want to lost those. Do ppa-purge do a general reset where I would lose all of them? Is there a way to specify a particular one to disable?
[06:06] <werdfriek> find . -name sources.list -print (on 16.04) yeilds no output
[06:06] <baizon> werdfriek: yes use software-properties

[06:07] <werdfriek> thx thx... I prefer to do it manually. Dindn't know where the thing was or if they changed the design.

[07:00] <tomaz_b> hi
[07:01] <tomaz_b> is there a list of well supported graphic cards (on the market today) ... preferably for 16.04
[07:01] <tomaz_b> ???
[07:01] <tomaz_b> i would like to buy one with good driver support
[07:02] <reisio> tomaz_b: there are only really three names to speak of
[07:02] <tomaz_b> and i don't really need for high end gaming...
[07:02] <reisio> intel, amd, nvidia
[07:02] <reisio> amd and nvidia keep lists of supported cards at their driver sites
[07:02] <reisio> for their own, proprietary drivers
[07:02] <reisio> the open source drivers are quite good, too
[07:02] <tomaz_b> what would you but if you would configure new comp?
[07:02] <reisio> intel is incredibly well supported, but really they all are
[07:02] <reisio> I'd buy the cheapest
[07:03] <reisio> particularly if I weren't "gaming"
[07:03] <reisio> is it for a desktop?
[07:03] <tomaz_b> i am currently running "onboarded" one... i just bought my dev machine
[07:03] <ducasse_> tomaz_b: intel works really well if you're not a gamer
[07:03] <tomaz_b> yes
[07:03] <reisio> onboard is almost certainly intel
[07:03] <tomaz_b> yes
[07:03] <tomaz_b> it is
[07:03] <reisio> is it a desktop?
[07:04] <tomaz_b> yes
[07:04] <reisio> you're all set
[07:04] <tomaz_b> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Sky Lake Integrated Graphics (rev 06)
[07:04] <baizon> tomaz_b: for gaming nvidia, else intel or amd
[07:04] <tomaz_b> but ... from time to time... i experience some strange behaviour...
[07:04] <tomaz_b> chrome is flashing...
[07:04] <tomaz_b> etc
[07:05] <reisio> that's probably GTK+3 fun
[07:05] <tomaz_b> i would go with good graphic card, but what i don't want is another big fan inside... i prefer my machine to be as silent as it would be possible ... and not stopped ;)
[07:06] <tomaz_b> it uses i915_bpo
[07:06] <tomaz_b> is it a practice that you find a drivers anyway?
[07:06] <tomaz_b> from intel site?
[07:07] <tomaz_b> or are the one provided by ubuntu dist ok?
[07:07] <simpleirc> hola
[07:08] <reisio> plenty of cheap fanless desktops you can buy these days
[07:08] <reisio> simpleirc: 'lo
[07:09] <rand0mguy> guys! i have a question.
[07:09] <rand0mguy> hello btw! :-)
[07:10] <reisio> 'lo
[07:10] <rand0mguy> anybody there?
[07:10] <reisio> ...yup
[07:10] <rand0mguy> if using ubuntu with internet without updating is not secure then how do i secure my pc during downloading updates for the first time after installing? just turning ufw on? what about 12.04?
[07:11] <reisio> it's not so much that it's not secure
[07:11] <reisio> it's that the longer you go without updating, the less secure you will be
[07:11] <reisio> the point being that you should regularly update
[07:11] <reisio> there is also the install-time option of updating while you install
[07:12] <reisio> but I can't recommend enough not doing that, as it likes to make installs fail :p
[07:13] <rand0mguy> but it can take only a few seconds to get access to my pc if there is a bug like that. So you are saying there isn't any bug like that right now in 12.04?
[07:13] <tomaz_b> reisio: do you know is this flickering in chrome somehow related to graphic card? i read somewhere that the solution is to disable HW acceleration inside chrome... but then i had a feeling that i run really bad hw
[07:14] <reisio> tomaz_b: lot of hardware accel stuff in browsers these days is pretty new and crap
[07:14] <reisio> you might also try chromium instead of chrome
[07:14] <reisio> that'll be less crap
[07:15] <tomaz_b> well this is what i meant
[07:15] <tomaz_b> i use chromium
[07:16] <tomaz_b> now scrolling is really bad. not smooth
[07:16] <rand0mguy> reisio: any thing?
[07:16] <tomaz_b> after disabling this
[07:18] <ducasse> tomaz_b: if you are on a skylake system, there have been quite a lot of graphics fixes recently. 16.10 will be released soon, you could just wait and try that or the hwe stack that will be released for 16.04
[07:19] <tomaz_b> is there any list edited by community regarding graphics cards...
[07:19] <tomaz_b> what is hwe stack?
[07:19] <ducasse> !hwe
[07:19] <reisio> rand0mguy: ?
[07:19] <rand0mguy> reisio: but it can take only a few seconds to get access to my pc if there is a bug like that. So you are saying there isn't any bug like that right now in 12.04?
[07:20] <rand0mguy> thats what i said
[07:20] <ducasse> rand0mguy: if there was a known security bug it would be fixed
[07:20] <akik> tomaz_b: the intel drivers in the kernel are ok. you don't need to go hunting for them
[07:20] <reisio> rand0mguy: if all you're doing is booting up and running updates, there's virtually nothing in the history of time that has ever been an issue in that scenario
[07:20] <reisio> not even really for Windows
[07:20] <reisio> which is much (much, much) less secure
[07:21] <rand0mguy> :-D
[07:21] <tomaz_b> akik: ok thanks
[07:22] <tomaz_b> ducasse: where can i check to see if this hwe is released?
[07:22] <akik> tomaz_b: there's additional configuration that can be done in /etc/drirc and xorg config (SwapbuffersWait) that could help
[07:22] <tomaz_b> akik: could you direct me to some docs/link/webpage/blog regarding this... ? please
[07:23] <akik> tomaz_b: https://www.phoronix.com/forums/forum/linux-graphics-x-org-drivers/open-source-amd-linux/26564-doubling-your-performance-with-a-simple-trick
[07:25] <akik> tomaz_b: the swapbufferswait needs to go to a xorg config snippet
[07:25] <akik> tomaz_b: or, if you have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[07:26] <akik> tomaz_b: also chrome might "seem" faster if you disable the smooth scrolling
[07:27] <tomaz_b> i can't find anything on smooth scrolling
[07:27] <tomaz_b> in chromium
[07:27] <akik> tomaz_b: it's in chrome://flags
[07:29] <iron_host> k
[07:30] <iron_host> kdkdkd
[07:32] <tomaz_b> I'll wait for hwe release, perhaps browse a little bit more and switch to Firefox till then. Firefox works just perfect.
[07:32] <tomaz_b> And I just got used to Chrome(ium)
[07:33] <tomaz_b> :(
[07:34] <tomaz_b> And I can see I am not alone... if you google it "chromium flickering ubuntu 16.04"
[07:38] <tomaz_b> uuu :) ... the guy who wrote this.. "setting GPU rasterization to 'Force-enabled for all layers'" on this link http://askubuntu.com/questions/766725/annoying-flickering-in-16-04-lts-chrome "solved" my problem
[07:38] <tomaz_b> at least for now... it looks great
[08:00] <pantato> what is the package name for the tool on ubuntu desktop that goes thruogh all those different repos and finds which one has the best speed for you?
[08:00] <pantato> or is that part of the unity package?
[08:01] <xz_> pantato, something like netselect-apt
[08:02] <pantato> that's exactly it. thanks
[08:02] <pantato> dude this debiandog is amazing
[08:03] <pantato> definitely the best distro i've ever found
[08:04] <xz_> pantato, sry i know this for the debian, but somewhere online you should find the equiv for ubuntu -- i forget the exact name
[08:04] <pantato> oh woops i thought i was in the debian room
[08:04] <pantato> my bad
[08:04] <pantato> i mean really what could the different between debiandog and ubuntudog be
[08:06] <ly_> who are you?
[08:08] <akik> ly_: ubuntu volunteer support. nice to meet you
[08:11] <Guest46015> hey guys, maybe someone can help me: I'm running Ubuntu 15.10 on a dell xps 13 (2013). My wifi connects fine, but is very unstable (pinging my router: http://pastebin.com/raw/z0EP6JPq). I've installed the recommended driver for the broadcom device (http://pastebin.com/raw/bWVYjUMc) and dont know where to start looking for problems
[08:12] <Guest46015> network itself is fine, no "high pings" on other devices
[08:12] <baizon> Guest46015: 15.10 is EOL
[08:13] <akik> that was a nice chat with ly_ :(
[08:13] <baizon> Guest46015: switch to 16.04 please
[08:15] <naoutware> !ops
[08:16] <Guest46015> baizon: will upgrade, check and post again if problem still persists
[08:16] <naoutware> does ubuntu spy on it's users?
[08:17] <mib> naoutware, why?
[08:17] <naoutware> sorry, some guy was having fun with me and told me to type that

[08:18] <rickrack> https://twitter.com/MelissaJaneSays
[08:20] <naoutware> ubuntu does spy on it's users though right?
[08:20] <SwedeMike> rickrack: how is that on-topic for this channel?
[08:20] <naoutware> they have to make money?
[08:20]  * theskillwithin puts a rob on
[08:20] <SwedeMike> naoutware: you need to rephrase the question and define what you mean by "spy"
[08:20] <theskillwithin> robe
[08:20] <baizon> naoutware: they making money of support licensing. But this isnt a support question, and this is a support channel

[08:25] <Krisostoomus> hello I have a executable "SoulseekQt-2016-1-17-64bit" how do i make so that, when i type in on terminal soulseek, that it opens soulseek?
[08:25] <naoutware> eula is not the same as clear informed consent...ie "care to donate 5,10,15,50,100?"
[08:25] <Ben64> naoutware: #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:25] <naoutware> "it would help the project tremendously and help us to protect your privacy"
[08:25] <Krisostoomus> basically what i need is i guess a symbolic link to that executable. and should i put it into /usr/bin ?
[08:26] <Ben64> Krisostoomus: or put it into ~/bin/
[08:26] <Ben64> or add wherever it is to PATH

[09:03] <user_> hi
[09:03] <user_> hey can someone help me out on a little error i got?
[09:05] <user_> I wanted to make a bootable usb on pendrivelinux in Windows 7, but i got an error saying that the USB wasnt gonna be bootable... and it sure wasnt
[09:06] <keonkim> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23223909/
[09:06] <keonkim> this is my result from 'dmesg | grep Bluetooth'
[09:09] <user_> does anyone know what that error means?
[09:19] <daemon555> can anybody help me i upgraded to ubuntu 12.04 and i got no sound
[09:20] <hello2> why not upgrade to 16.04?
[09:20] <daemon555> since it freezes alot!
[09:21] <baizon> daemon555: my ubuntu installation never froze, and im using ubuntu for 4 years now
[09:21] <daemon555> thats since you got money and a good pc
[09:21] <daemon555> mine not so good
[09:22] <daemon555> i have to wait till next year
[09:22] <dontgo2sleep> daemon555, and you decided to install 4 years old version? lol
[09:22] <baizon> daemon555: i did buy my pc in 2006
[09:22] <daemon555> yes what its the only version that doesnt freeze
[09:23] <Guest56832> hey baizon, i upgraded to 16.04, the problem still persists: network still is acting up
[09:26] <Guest56832> any ideas where t wo look next? I already tried connecting manually with wpa_supplicant, no messages/errors plopped up there
[09:27] <guardianL_> what sort of network problem?
[09:31] <naoutware> does ubuntu have a webpage that describes the steps needed to remove any ubuntu spyware and data collection?
[09:32] <john_tmp> guardianL_: dont know if my previous message reached: I'm running ubuntu 16.04 on a dell xps13 (2013), its the only device with problems in the network. I'm using the for that laptop recommended driver (http://pastebin.com/raw/Jna3YhUA)
[09:36] <guardianL_> ok, don't know sorry
[09:36] <ducasse> naoutware: what spyware?
[09:37] <guardianL_> i've had buggy wireless since 16.04 lts, but restarting NetworkManager fixes it
[09:37] <guardianL_> if that doesn't fix it, no idea
[09:38] <naoutware> ducasse, yes deny the existence
[09:38] <ducasse> naoutware: i'm asking you a direct question.
[09:45] <john_tmp> i had the problem already at 15.10, baizon suggested upgrading sinds its eol
[09:46] <naoutware> ducasse, the spyware that is in ubuntu
[09:47] <ducasse> naoutware: and what is that? which packages?
[09:49] <daemon555> still no sound!
[09:54] <rigo> hi. is there a step by step guide somewhere for attaching my onedrive cloud to ubuntu? all windows distros have failed for an m350 and 4gibs of ram.
[09:56] <niko1990> Hello everyone
[09:58] <noob> hi
[10:01] <jesk> any idea guys why /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/current_now is missing?
[10:01] <jesk> is it missing in your mobiles/notebooks as well?
[10:01] <jesk> ubuntu 16.04.1 here
[10:03] <ducasse> jesk: aiui, the battery 'name' can vary between machines, see if there is anything else under /sys/class/power_supply/
[10:07] <jesk> batteryname is fine
[10:07] <jesk> i'am talking about current_now
[10:07] <ducasse> jesk: you just miss that particular file?
[10:07] <jesk> yes
[10:08] <jesk> current_now
[10:09] <naoutware> ducasse, your feigned ignorance of ubuntu spyware is distressing
[10:09] <Ben64> naoutware: again, #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:10] <niko1990> I have a computer running ubuntu 16 and i just ran apt-get update && upgrade and after that a apt-get dist-upgrade... Now my computer is not starting no more. It shows now in the journalctl -xb at the end of the log alot of red lines with [pulseaudio] core-util.c Faild to connect to system bus. Faild to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_soc
[10:11] <niko1990> is it possible to fix that, or to rollback the upgrade commands?
[10:11] <naoutware> Ben64, is there such a channel?
[10:11] <Ben64> naoutware: #ubuntu-offtopic ... as i've told you many times now
[10:12] <gtxbb> niko1990, did you try installing a newer kernel?
[10:12] <naoutware> Ben64, ok ok
[10:12] <niko1990> gtxbb: how do i do that?
[10:16] <atana> Hi, I am trying to add a ppa on my ubuntu 14.04 system. I tried 'sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mraa/mraa' it says Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:mraa/mraa'.
[10:16] <atana>  Please check that the PPA name or format is correct. This is it's location https://launchpad.net/~mraa/+archive/ubuntu/mraa any help would be appreciated
[10:17] <jesk> does /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/current_now miss for you as well, guys?
[10:17] <Ben64> atana: doesn't exist for trusty
[10:17] <atana> Ben64, any work around ?
[10:17] <niko1990> gtxbb: oh, do you mean if i installed a kernel upgrade with dist-upgrade? No the only thing that got upgraded with the dist-upgrade was mysql (two packages).
[10:17] <Ben64> atana: nope
[10:17] <jesk> does /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/current_now miss for you as well, guys? easy check, help for cheap.
[10:18] <jesk> 1600 people and noone can check that file for existence?
[10:18] <Ben64> jesk: pointless
[10:19] <jesk> please?
[10:19] <Ben64> no, there is no point. if i have an orange it doesn't help you fend off scurvy
[10:19] <atana> Ben64, which ubuntu version supports it?
[10:19] <ducasse> jesk: YES, i have that file. fail to see how that helps you.
[10:19] <Ben64> atana: 16.04 is the only target of that PPA
[10:19] <jesk> it helps me a lot
[10:20] <jesk> you guys dont have to see how it would help you
[10:20] <jesk> Ben64: do you have other things to do than tell people what it would help them, to retreat into #offtopic and other just negative and destructive things?
[10:20] <jesk> just leave if that is all you do
[10:21] <Ben64> jesk: it really doesn't help you for someone to have a file. that makes no sense. work on YOUR issue, don't poll people for their setup, because that is irrelevant
[10:21] <gtxbb> not everybody has the same hardware too.
[10:22] <gtxbb> so true a poll would completely useless on this
[10:23] <niko1990> gtxbb: do you mean if i installed a kernel upgrade with dist-upgrade? No the only thing that got upgraded with the dist-upgrade was mysql (two packages).
[10:23] <jesk> ou have no clue, it helps me, as my ubuntu is running inside virtualbox, this is something which is created through the kernel dynamically, through ACPI, linux changes the layout for that class every second day, and the current state if this is currently working this way on other devices *IS* worthful
[10:23] <naoutware> Trump China Remix https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbM2F-cfN0A
[10:24] <jesk> dont tell things you dont understand completely and try to look intelligent with your pointless comments
[10:24] <Ben64> jesk: someone else's computer has no relevance to your setup. i can't even imagine what sort of mental gymnastics you're doing that makes that logical
[10:25] <gtxbb> Ben64, he's expecting people to also be using Ubuntu on "Virtualbox"
[10:25] <gtxbb> geez
[10:25] <jesk> Ben64: no I dont, but it isnt clear that current_now is currently working that way
[10:25] <gtxbb> a hardware path -- but it's not a real hardware path when they are also virtual.
[10:25] <jesk> but you dont get it
[10:25] <jesk> as you dont know the history of that stuff
[10:26] <jesk> but still continueing trying to be a smartass right?
[10:26] <jesk> continue you make yourself ridiciulous

[13:15] <avid_fan> Hey, anyone here use TLP (http://linrunner.de/en/tlp/tlp.html) on their laptop?
[13:16] <avid_fan> Wondering if there is an applet that will at least properly display the current CPU's frequency/speed. Not too concerned with the ability to control the govenor, so much.
[13:16] <avid_fan> indicator-cpufreq didn't seem to work so well for me.
[13:17] <rohitt_> tlp works in the background.
[13:17] <rohitt_> You could try using Conky for monitoring the CPU freq etc
[13:18] <warden> Is steam still supported in LTS 14?
[13:18] <rohitt_> warden: yes
[13:18] <rohitt_> I used it this morning..
[13:18] <warden> Thought so, drivers are not installing
[13:19] <rohitt_> Maybe a recent change. I didn't update my gaming box in a long time.
[13:20] <avid_fan> rohitt_, yeah, I like Conky, but I'm looking for more of a panel applet. Not something that I'd have to minimize windows to see.
[13:21] <avid_fan> rohitt_, just thought I'd throw it out there. I'll go fishing. Maybe I'll find something good.

[13:54] <SchrodingersScat> !ask | noob
[13:54] <ronaldsmazitis> why screen is black drp
[13:55] <drp> the game could be drawing to a different context
[13:55] <drp> have you tried recording the desktop by itself?
[13:56] <ds98ds> ix1.undernet.org
[13:56] <noob> how do you switch channels in irssi irc client without using "Alt". Alt is assigned for using tabs in my terminal
[13:57] <noob> whois ubottu
[13:57] <ikonia>  /join #channel
[13:57] <noob> sorry i forgot slash
[13:58] <noob> lol
[13:58] <ducasse> noob: try #irssi
[13:59] <\9> noob: esc
[14:04] <geranium> 🍁  either esc or /win  🍂
[14:04] <z1haze2> anyone know why lscpu would output this error on 16.04: lscpu: failed to determine number of CPUs: /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible: No such file or directory ?
[14:04] <geranium> 🍁  /win ##  🍂
[14:11] <yeats> noob: in the terminal top menu, go to Edit -> Preferences, click on the Shortcuts tab, Tabs section, and disable the Switch to Tab X entries
[14:11] <yeats> (at least that's what I do)
[14:17] <willamena> hello?
[14:17] <SchrodingersScat> willamena: hello
[14:17] <Jakey2> how do i get this scp to work? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23224918/
[14:17] <willamena> first time on Ubuntu chat..any humans here?
[14:17] <Jakey2> nope
[14:17] <jern> How can I output journald config values?
[14:17] <willamena> Excellent Jackey
[14:17] <Jakey2> just cats
[14:17] <willamena> :P
[14:17] <willamena> *meow*
[14:17] <SchrodingersScat> willamena: just us chickens
[14:18] <willamena> no, I just wanted to *share*
[14:18] <SchrodingersScat> Jakey2: i've never seen expansion with "s and then comma separated.  is that an scp thing?
[14:18] <willamena> I actually, just 'turfed' (slang) vast amounts of winbloze partitions..
[14:18] <willamena> And said 'to hell w/ it' :)
[14:18] <willamena> And have, today, installed Ubuntu
[14:18] <soreau> scp bob@111.11.11.111:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/client* bob@111.11.11.111:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/ ~/Downloads/
[14:18] <jern> I'm looking to configure journald, but I'm not 100% sure what the existing configuration is.
[14:18] <Jakey2> SchrodingersScat, no because its not working
[14:18] <willamena> so, take it easy on the virgin here..
[14:18] <Jakey2> i wondering the correct syntax
[14:18] <soreau> Jakey2: ^^
[14:19] <willamena> Anyway, I'm quite happy to report..it's quite easy to switch OS
[14:19] <SchrodingersScat> !offtopic | willamena, just a note that this is for ubuntu support, if you want general chat then try #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:19] <willamena> in fact, I was in a retail store the other day and saw with my own amazing eyes, a retail price of USD 200 for Windows OS ..
[14:19] <Jakey2> soreau, is possilbe to do the all files in one command?
[14:19] <willamena> and another 2 hun for 'ms office for small business'.
[14:19] <soreau> Jakey2: if the only files in the keys directory are those four (or if you don't care about copying the rest), just do scp bob@111.11.11.111:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/* ~/Downloads/
[14:20] <Jakey2> i just want those specific files
[14:20] <willamena> And I nearly immediately drove sober to the nearest liquor store and procured vast amounts of single malt.
[14:20] <soreau> Jakey2: then you probably want the first command or separate them into two commands
[14:20] <willamena> Surely, this vast waste of resources (aka money) shouldn't be a secret?
[14:21] <willamena> I'm more savvy than others..but shit..it's pretty easy to switch OS ..
[14:21] <SchrodingersScat> !ohmy | willamena
[14:21] <Jakey2> so i have to use regex then to get all them not a simple way to do with scp
[14:21] <Jakey2> ?
[14:22] <soreau> Jakey2: no
[14:22] <noob> hey what is "alias"?
[14:22] <willamena> even if you're a 'marketers dream' and us Apple products..surely, it's just a quick switch to *nix as you are using it anyway, except non-open source and generally destructive to open-source/ info for man/woman kind :P
[14:22] <willamena> 1st impressions anyway..
[14:22] <\9> noob: try "help alias"
[14:22] <soreau> Jakey2: scp bob@111.11.11.111:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/client* ~/Downloads && scp bob@111.11.11.111:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/ca.cert ~/Downloads/
[14:22] <willamena> And tell me more about this 'Ubuntu' a South African business man started this 'rig' or what?"
[14:22] <soreau> Jakey2: The way I do it is with a bash loop:
[14:22] <\9> noob: it's a rather simple way of making a command expand into something else
[14:22] <willamena> I'm still learning, but it's hilarious when you look at some of the man pages and such.
[14:23] <willamena> but, for me - enough is enough..
[14:23] <Jakey2> soreau, ok
[14:23] <BluesKaj> !ubuntu | willamena
[14:23] <soreau> Jakey2: for f in client1.key client1.crt client.ovpn ca.cert; do scp bob@111.11.11.111:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/$f ~/Downloads/; done
[14:23] <willamena> I think there's too much crack cocaine floating around Redmond, Washington State these days..
[14:23] <willamena> surely, privacy matters. imho.
[14:23] <Jakey2> soreau, thanks
[14:24] <soreau> Jakey2: That will effectively run the command four times, replacing $f each iteration with the files listed
[14:24] <Jakey2> yes
[14:24] <ducasse> willamena: as has been said, this is not a chat channel
[14:24] <BluesKaj> willamena, this ubuntu support , not a personal; log for new users
[14:24] <jern> god damn this willamena says a lot without saying much
[14:24] <willamena> And hexChat is also great..
[14:24] <pelpis> heyy
[14:24] <pelpis> lol
[14:24] <willamena> I was fully expecting ..to take like 5 hours to understand chat / MIRC again.
[14:24] <willamena> but somehow this is easier.
[14:24] <jern> willamena: hit up twitter with your thoughts; leave this channel for ubuntu support
[14:25] <willamena> And I can ask technical questions here and people will *actually* help
[14:25] <willamena> I'm presuming..
[14:25] <BluesKaj> willamena, do you read responses or are you just busy busy typing away obliviously
[14:25] <willamena> again, my 1st time..
[14:25] <SchrodingersScat> willamena: you need to read what people are telling you though.
[14:25] <willamena> Sorry BluesKaj....
[14:25] <willamena> just excited a bit.
[14:25] <willamena> yes, read
[14:26] <willamena> And thanks 'ubottu' re: ubuntu dot com
[14:26] <willamena> and others..
[14:26] <willamena> I've install this 'sorcery' on my laptop as well.
[14:26] <willamena> and informing my gf on it..
[14:27] <willamena> Okay, well..I think this is likely a formal room for serious Ubuntu..apologize..
[14:27] <willamena> is there another room less formal I may regale ?
[14:28] <ducasse> willamena: try #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:28] <SchrodingersScat> willamena: try registering and joining #ubuntu-offtopic  then people will be more prone to talking
[14:28] <willamena> ah..*noted Sir* ducasse..
[14:28] <willamena> does that show up if I use slash list?
[14:28] <jern> ask them there, just /join it for now
[14:29] <BluesKaj> just click on the #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:29] <ducasse> !register | read this first
[14:29] <Jakey2> soreau, that works but asks my root password 4 times
[14:29] <willamena> ah..okay..thanks, I'll try.
[14:29] <willamena> sorry for the verbosity! 'pax vobisicum'!
[14:29] <soreau> Jakey2: yea you really should set it up to not ask ;)
[14:29] <Jakey2> soreau, you mean ssh keys
[14:29] <soreau> Jakey2: yep
[14:29] <Jakey2> true
[14:29] <Jakey2> just a test server
[14:30] <willamena> mother of god! there's a lot of chat rooms that start with 'unbuntu' lol
[14:30] <willamena> ....hold on....
[14:30] <willamena> baby steps!
[14:30] <soreau> Jakey2: after generating the key and cp'ing the file, you don't need password (for that machine) and it's worth it (learning and doing)
[14:30] <willamena> found it!
[14:30] <willamena> test humans?
[14:30] <willamena> what's this ------------- line at the top mean?
[14:30] <Jakey2> willamena, are you trolling
[14:30] <Jakey2> ?
[14:30] <willamena> on HexChat?
[14:31] <willamena> no Jackey, as mentioned..this is my 1st time on HexChat
[14:31] <SchrodingersScat> willamena: if you registered try /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:31] <willamena> seriously
[14:31] <jern> willamena is clearly a troll
[14:31] <willamena> hrmmm
[14:31] <jern> if someone mute that fool
[14:31] <willamena> not sure yet how to register ..I just installed Ubuntu..
[14:31] <willamena> okay..sec
[14:31] <ducasse> !register | willamena
[14:32] <willamena> apologies..
[14:33] <willamena> It has been a while since I've used numerous 'switches' / this / that :)
[14:33] <willamena> please have patience
[14:33] <jern> tell someone else
[14:33] <willamena> stellar jern, keep it real! :)
[14:34] <willamena> back! (had to get another cold beer)
[14:34] <willamena> before I figure out this amazing stuff!
[14:34] <tttb> how do I set a keyboard shortcut to rename a file (equivalent of right-click -> rename)?
[14:35] <willamena> okay, so tell me about this 'registering' a nickname and how to 'join' a chat. Am I in chat purgatory here or what is the deal and speak EnGRISH also
[14:35] <ducasse> willamena: all the info you need is in the link ubottu gave you
[14:35] <BluesKaj> willamena, read above, there were at least 2 posts showing you how to register
[14:36] <willamena> ok..noted BlueKaj..sec..lemme read
[14:36] <willamena> (and Jern <-- you know I might forget God or Satan or Presidents, but I won't forget your unhelpful advice Sir!)
[14:36] <willamena> Thank you BluesKaj! :)
[14:37] <tttb> any ideas?
[14:37] <willamena> ...simple acts of kindness in the Agnostic bible, go a long long way :)
[14:37] <tehmrskinner> Can you send me a link to said posts willamena or Bluekajs?
[14:38] <willamena> Bluekajs is great..jern isn't helping :P
[14:38] <willamena> both are kewl, I'm just learning..
[14:38] <BluesKaj> refrain from offtopic comments please , willamena
[14:38] <willamena> It is my fault..if any drama Tehm..all good! I take full responsibility.
[14:38] <willamena> my current nick is to be humourous..
[14:39] <willamena> as in, a name you'd never name your daughter :P
[14:39] <willamena> lol
[14:39] <willamena> but, It has been a long time since on chat..
[14:39] <willamena> And so, I'm new in a regard. I'm a huge fan of open source though.
[14:39] <ducasse> willamena: please don't type *everything* you think, as this is a support channel - not chat. stick to technical questions :)
[14:40] <willamena> And have just 'liberated' my OS(s) with linux..
[14:40] <willamena> and it turns out 'all my Volumes' are quite readable !!! :)
[14:40] <willamena> so wtf! :) why oh WHY didn't I use Ubuntu before...
[14:40] <tehmrskinner> Can I get the links to the posts on registering that were apparently mentioned early?
[14:40] <ducasse> !register | tehmrskinner
[14:40] <willamena> I don't post..
[14:41] <willamena> but I can 'chef up a django website' :P
[14:41] <tehmrskinner> TY
[14:41] <willamena> I can write if you can sort out the 'full stack'.
[14:41] <willamena> I'll do sales/marketing and look 'pretty' and you do the full stack and DB
[14:42] <willamena> or I'll do the DB and full stack and you look 'pretty'.
[14:42] <willamena> either way, we don't need VC to make a few million brother.
[14:42] <ducasse> any chance of a +q?
[14:42] <willamena> life is way, way,way too short for that bullshit (sorry) am I allowed to swear here?
[14:43] <willamena> as, some chat areas....w/ Nancy Regan 'types'..the moment you swear or talk about marijuana, you become all 'stressed out' LOL
[14:43] <ikonia> willamena: you're now muted so you can no longer talk in this channel
[14:45] <ikonia> willamena: I've send you a private message
[14:46] <TehMrSkinner> So when you register your nick name is that for the whole server (freenode) or just a particular channel?
[14:47] <ducasse> TehMrSkinner: for the irc network
[14:48] <TehMrSkinner> Sweet, cheers!
[14:48] <jdwwatts> if the system im using is working good should i upgrade or keep everything the same?
[14:51] <ikonia> 3/win 1
[14:51] <ikonia> oops, sorry
[14:52] <ducasse> jdwwatts: you should apply updates, you can choose to only apply security updates if you wish (but that might miss important bug fixes)
[14:57] <willamena> Hello again.
[14:57] <willamena> Sorry all, about before!.
[14:58] <willamena> After a nice talk in Valhalla, I'm on board and a supporter! :)
[14:58] <willamena> And I have technical challenages also on MongoDB and contemplating change to another DB..
[14:58] <willamena> as scale is a 'time sink'...
[15:00] <willamena> clear
[15:02] <jackhum> So i upgraded my Ubuntu to 16.04 few hours ago. And now my bootloader is not working. Also ubuntu just got mixed with kali Linux in some wierd combination. Please tell me how to recover
[15:02] <ikonia> "mixed" ?
[15:02] <ikonia> you're boot loader is probably not working as you've installed another linux distro thats overrriden the grub boot loader and is not conrolling it
[15:03] <BluesKaj> jackhum, did you have separate / and /home partitions before installing kali  ?
[15:05] <jackhum> I dont know i do remember installing katoolin which i think added some PPAs but i didnt have kali installed in my system. Also i had Ubuntu dual booted with windows
[15:06] <DJones> jackhum: Did you follow the advice on the katoolin website "Before updating your system , please remove all Kali-linux repositories to avoid any kind of problem ."
[15:07] <ikonia> so basically - you've just mixed a load of repos and PPA's
[15:07] <ikonia> thats the bottom line of what it comes down to
[15:07] <jackhum> DJones: was there any such thing? I upgraded my system and now bootloader has kali as entry a
[15:08] <DJones> jackhum: https://github.com/LionSec/katoolin  Its got a big Warning notice
[15:08] <jackhum> Also somehow i once manaGED to enter in my Ubuntu And i noticed kali Linux written on the top. It was my Ubuntu but with kali mixed
[15:08] <ikonia> it's not mixed
[15:09] <ikonia> you've just put 3rd party repos on it
[15:09] <ikonia> and you've messed up your boot loader installing multiple distros
[15:09] <microdex> What does it mean when services don't start even though the systemD Unit files contain   WantedBy=multi-user.target  as specified by this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers
[15:09] <jackhum> FML
[15:09] <andai> I've been reading some stuff about wacom drivers. The information seems pretty outdated so I thought I'd check here. Are wacom tablets expected to work out of the box, or do I need to install drivers or configure something? (My tablet seems to be recognized but doesn't work at all)
[15:09] <jackhum> Can i have it all back??
[15:09] <ikonia> microdex: look at why it can't start
[15:10] <ikonia> jackhum: honestly - backup your data and just reinstall the distro you want
[15:10] <BluesKaj> installed kali linux on a ubuntu partition without formatting
[15:10] <microdex> it starts fine manually
[15:10] <ikonia> you'll find it easier and quicker
[15:10] <ducasse> microdex: is the service enabled?
[15:10] <ikonia> microdex: why doesn't it get launched from the systemd unit
[15:10] <microdex> enabled?
[15:10] <microdex> when I start is with > sudo service myserv start  it works fine
[15:10] <microdex> it just doesn't start by itself when I reboot the whole machine
[15:10] <jackhum> SO like no way to return to my old good Ubuntu
[15:11] <jackhum> ?
[15:11] <jackhum> Fresh install is only way?
[15:12] <ducasse> microdex: try 'sudo systemctl enable myserv'
[15:12] <microdex> ducasse: ikonia:  I thought   WantedBy=multi-user.target  was supposed to do same thing as  'start on run level [2345]'  like Upstart
[15:12] <jackhum> ikonia: BluesKaj
[15:12] <jackhum> I also had windows installed
[15:13] <jackhum> Can i get back to windows and reinstall ubuntu?
[15:13] <jackhum> Wierd it got all mixed
[15:13] <microdex> when I ran > 'sudo systemctl enable myserv'  it said 'created symlink'
[15:14] <ducasse> jackhum: you've created an awful mess, a fresh install is the cleanest and easiest way
[15:14] <ducasse> microdex: it should start on boot now.
[15:14] <microdex> so does that mean on Ubuntu 16 in addition to adding config files to /etc/systemd/system  I also have to "enable" them ?
[15:15] <jackhum> Okay. SO first thing. how can i boot to my windows?
[15:16] <ikonia> jackhum: the guys in ##windows can help you put the windows boot loader back on
[15:16] <ducasse> microdex: afaik, yes.
[15:16] <ikonia> jackhum: that will get your windows install booting again if it still exists
[15:17] <microdex> ducasse: systemd seems like it requires more handholding than Upstart
[15:18] <jackhum> How to check about what partition got messed up?
[15:19] <aruns> Hi, I have SSH installed but can't seem to connect to client servers.
[15:19] <aruns> SSH daemon is running on port 2222
[15:19] <aruns> I ran sudo service ssh restart
[15:19] <BluesKaj> microdex, systemctl is the answer to starting systemd daemons and apps
[15:19] <ducasse> microdex: not really, imo. it's a little different, but quite nice to deal with.
[15:19] <aruns> And then ps aux | grep -i ssh
[15:19] <aruns> This is the output
[15:20] <aruns> https://bpaste.net/show/d6fb8572825c
[15:20] <aruns> Is it not working because of some sort of firewall rule?
[15:21] <ducasse> aruns: what happens when you try to connect? are you using -p 2222?
[15:22] <microdex> Are there some benefits to using  'sudo systemctl start myserv' instead of 'sudo service myserv start'   ?
[15:24] <BluesKaj> microdex, none if myserv starts and ruins ok ,  but the service command is passed to systemctl and then invoked afaik
[15:24] <andai> Anyone using wacom tablet? Did you have to configure anything for it to work?
[15:26] <microdex> I really enjoyed the simplicity of adding myserv.conf  to /etc/init/ and forgetting about it.  All this manual symlink making seems like extra manual labor
[15:27] <ducasse> microdex: this is not the place to discuss this.
[15:27] <microdex> Oh I thought there was Ubuntu core contributors in here
[15:27] <ikonia> microdex: it doesn't change anything
[15:27] <ikonia> systemd is here - thats the end of it
[15:28] <ducasse> microdex: no, just volunteers, and this is a support channel only
[15:28] <ikonia> like it / hate it, it doesn't change the reality
[15:29] <microdex> ok will do.
[15:29] <aruns> ducasse: Hi, sorry, I was doing some troubleshooting and using the port flag seemed to give me some headway.
[15:30] <microdex> is there another channel for discussing policy or default behavior suggestions with core ubuntu maintainers ?
[15:30] <aruns> ducasse: Trying to wrap my head around the idea of what RSA keys are though :P
[15:31] <ducasse> microdex: you can try #ubuntu-devel, but systemd is pretty much here to stay.
[15:31] <whatthe> Hey there. Hosting a server with cloud at cost, so I'm expecting issues, because, well. One time cost for a vps ;)
[15:31] <microdex> ducasse:  I don't have any issue with SystemD specifically, just some of its default behaviors
[15:31] <whatthe> Currently having an interesting set of issues, and wanted to ask what might cause such things
[15:32] <whatthe> So, I can SSH into the VM, and I can run some commands, but others just hang
[15:32] <whatthe> I can run ls, echo, and ps aux
[15:32] <whatthe> but ls -l hangs
[15:32] <whatthe> that's a lower case L btw
[15:32] <ducasse> microdex: find out which of those defaults can be changed to suit you.
[15:32] <akik> microdex: when you run systemd enable it'll create the symlinks to /etc/systemd/ pointing to /lib/systemd
[15:33] <whatthe> reboot also hangs
[15:34] <whatthe> Okay, panel website finally decided to actually load in my browser. It's claiming the server is off :P
[15:34] <microdex> akik:  it actually creates symlinks  from /etc/systemd  to other dirs in /etc/systemd
[15:34] <microdex> " Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/octopus.service to /etc/systemd/system/octopus.service. "
[15:34] <user_> hi, ubuntu stopped asking me for the decryption password on boot
[15:34] <user_> how to fix this?
[15:36] <microdex> akik: ducasse:  is it a bad idea to directly put my  service unit config files directly in  /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.wants/  instead of symlink-ing ?
[15:36] <microdex> I mean does  systemctl  do something beyond just making symlinks ?
[15:36] <microdex> "systemctl enable"
[15:37] <wcordovil> hi, guys
[15:38] <ducasse> microdex: i don't know, but why not just use systemctl like intended?
[15:38] <akik> microdex: no the systemd service files live in /lib/systemd. try disabling and enabling for example the gpu-manager service
[15:39] <tgm4883> akik: the default ones live there. I don't believe custom ones live there
[15:39] <microdex> ducasse: you're right, I will do that    akik: ok thanks i'll try that
[15:39] <akik> Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service.wants/gpu-manager.service to /lib/systemd/system/gpu-manager.service.
[15:40] <microdex> Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/octopus.service to /etc/systemd/system/octopus.service.
[15:40] <andai> systemctl
[15:40] <andai> whoops
[15:41] <microdex> so it looks like custom ones live in /etc/systemd   and  os services live in lib ?
[15:41] <ducasse> microdex: aiui, yes
[15:41] <microdex> sweet
[15:41] <akik> microdex: did you create the octobus.service in /etc/systemd ?
[15:41] <microdex> yeah
[15:42] <akik> sorry, octopus
[15:42] <microdex> I manually added  /etc/systemd/system/octopus.service   if thats what you're asking
[15:43] <willamena> okay, you know..I can't figure out HOW to register :)
[15:43] <willamena> I can write an 'AI program' though
[15:43] <willamena> but, NLP 'aint a simple UI either
[15:44] <moncapitane> Trying to install nvidia drivers but I'm getting an issue with the cannot find registry key
[15:44] <moncapitane> I installed via aptitude
[15:49] <ungabunga> lol
[15:49] <ungabunga> what the hell is going on?
[15:49] <ungabunga> ;
[15:49] <baizon> ungabunga: ?
[15:49] <ungabunga> no idea 'baizon'
[15:49] <ungabunga> What chat is this?
[15:49] <ungabunga> And whom are you?
[15:49] <baizon> ungabunga: ubuntu support
[15:49] <ungabunga> okay
[15:49] <ungabunga> Well, I'm clearly out of 'my element'
[15:50] <baizon> it seems so
[15:50] <ungabunga> If it was up to me, I would 'toss those RHEL' foolz into a 'Kirbati' jail cell.
[15:50] <ungabunga> but hey!
[15:50] <everton_> hello
[15:50] <lordcirth> everton_, hi
[15:51] <Guest43167> how are you?
[15:51] <Stranger09> how can i change terminal bell to other audio file and which audio file is supported
[15:51] <lordcirth> Guest43167, Good.  Did you have a support question?
[15:52] <baizon> Stranger09: https://askubuntu.com/questions/228096/terminal-bell-doesnt-ring
[15:55] <mlvmhn> how do i update without using the password?
[15:56] <mlvmhn> the key for typing my password has malfunctioned. what do i do?
[15:56] <baizon> mlvmhn: https://askubuntu.com/questions/98006/how-do-i-prevent-policykit-from-asking-for-a-password
[15:57] <baizon> mlvmhn: then change the password?
[15:57] <mlvmhn> i want the same password on all of my laptops, but the key is broken
[15:58] <mlvmhn> the "@" key does not respond
[15:59] <baizon> mlvmhn: then buy a new keyboard?
[15:59] <mlvmhn> baizon; it is a laptop
[16:00] <baizon> mlvmhn: well this also applies to it :)
[16:00] <mlvmhn> ok i am a linux noob. this seems rather complicated
[16:00] <andai> mlvmhn: go to youtube and type in the model of your laptop and "keyboard replacement", it might be a lot easier than you think (depends on the laptop)
[16:00] <Slyver> mlvmhn, want to try powershell?
[16:01] <mlvmhn> what is powershell?
[16:01] <Slyver> mlvmhn, a good screwdriver and patience is all you need. You should be able to find instructions online for your laptop model assuming it is a major brand.
[16:02] <mlvmhn> can i uninstall ubuntu and set it to not asking for the password for the updates?
[16:03] <drp> slightly unrelated, but why would you want to try powershell in linux? Wasn't it designed around mantipulating registry keys and windows objects rather than being a general text and file parser?
[16:03] <tgm4883> drp: completely off topic
[16:03] <tgm4883> mlvmhn: SSH into the box and update
[16:03] <andai> drp: i think he was making fun of him
[16:03] <drp> Slyver bought up powershell
[16:03] <drp> andai, oh
[16:04] <drp> it is in linux now though no?
[16:04] <andai> oh that's right
[16:04] <mlvmhn> do i need a password for authenticating the updates?
[16:04] <tgm4883> drp: then Slyver was off topic too
[16:04] <tgm4883> mlvmhn: yes
[16:05] <mlvmhn> so uninstall and the set another password?
[16:05] <tgm4883> mlvmhn: no you don't need to uninstall. You could just reset the password
[16:05] <andai> mlvmhn: Do you have any USB keyboards? You could use an external keyboard to type your password once so you can reset it
[16:05] <Jakey2> how can i trouble shoot how a vpn connection is failing?
[16:06] <Jakey2> in logsd
[16:06] <mlvmhn> can i reset without typing the password?
[16:06] <tgm4883> mlvmhn: probably. Is your drive encrypted?
[16:06] <mlvmhn> no encryption
[16:07] <tgm4883> mlvmhn: then yes. You just need to reboot into recovery and set it there

[16:08] <easyOnMe> obviously my internet connection is good as I am able to talk to you guys
[16:08] <easyOnMe> I got a message just now when I clicked install update right after I got prompted for an software update by ubuntu
[16:09] <easyOnMe> then after a while I got a message that the software download failed due to some internet connection issues
[16:09] <easyOnMe> I do not know what is wrong as I am able to browse other web pages right now
[16:09] <mlvmhn> can i just uninstall my installation and re-install it from terminal?
[16:10] <tgm4883> mlvmhn: no... that doesn't even make sense. Why don't you just do what I posted as it's far easier than a reinstall?
[16:11] <mlvmhn> true, how come all other linux distros cant find my wifi network except ubuntu??

[16:12] <andai> :(
[16:16] <easyOnMe> sorry guys but can anyone help me with my question I posted earlier
[16:17] <SchrodingersScat> easyOnMe: can you open up a terminal and try sudo apt update
[16:17] <SchrodingersScat> easyOnMe: if it completes successfully then you can try 'sudo apt upgrade' otherwise let us know what the errors are, use a pastebin type site if it's long.
[16:18] <easyOnMe> SchrodingersScat: E: Failed to fetch http://ph.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/thunderbird/thunderbird_45.3.0+build1-0ubuntu0.16.04.2_i386.deb  404  Not Found [IP: 202.90.159.172 80]

[16:20] <easyOnMe> yes

[16:56] <KnightDX> i have a question. is there a way to log in as root on ubuntu 16.04. and yes i know its bad to do but i would still like to know how to do it if anyone can help me.
[16:56] <diskin> KnightDX, sudo -i
[16:56] <KnightDX> that will let me login as root from the login screen?
[16:57] <diskin> yes
[16:57] <KnightDX> Thanks alot diskin
[16:57] <diskin> KnightDX, hold
[16:57] <KnightDX> ok
[16:57] <diskin> if you need to enter "root" at the login prompt, then you need to run sudo passwd root
[16:57] <diskin> that will "unlock" root acct
[16:58] <KnightDX> already have and it still wont let me
[16:58] <diskin> do you want to login into the graphical environment?
[16:58] <KnightDX> yea
[16:59] <ubuntu198> hi guys i have a problem with cakephp 3 and enabling extensions. I need intl and mcrypt. Until now a have enabled mcrypt but intl
[16:59] <waffles> But why?
[16:59] <ubuntu198> I install intl with sudo apt-get install
[16:59] <KnightDX> i already added it to my lightdm.conf file using the terminal aswell
[17:00] <ali_> hi
[17:00] <ubuntu198> but when i do php -m it doesn't show intl. I upload a php file with phpinfo(); and the same, it doesn't show intl
[17:00] <ubuntu198> so how can enable intl?
[17:00] <ali_> arab
[17:02] <diskin> KnightDX, check http://askubuntu.com/questions/451950/how-to-configure-lightdm-to-allow-manual-logins-in-ubuntu-14-04

[17:03] <ali_> thank you
[17:03] <KnightDX> Diskin, ok willl do
[17:07] <frib> hi.  i'm trying to make a liveusb but my laptop doesn't recognize it as a bootable device.  i am using usb-creator-gtk with the xenail iso
[17:07] <frib> please help!
[17:08] <Iamstuckpleasehe>  /msg nickserv sendpass Pr0Xyy
[17:08] <frib> kek auto pwn
[17:08] <DJones> Iamstuckpleasehe: That might work better without the spaces before it
[17:09] <SchrodingersScat> frib: try it again?
[17:09] <SchrodingersScat> try more
[17:09] <Kira9204> KnightDX: If you need root access from the GUI just run "sudo nautilus"
[17:09] <frib> SchrodingersScat, i tried it twice!
[17:09] <SchrodingersScat> !gksudo | Kira9204
[17:09] <frib> SchrodingersScat, the second time the app said "unable to write bootloader"
[17:09] <frib> do i need to run usb-creator as sudo or smth?
[17:10] <SchrodingersScat> gotta say that that doesn't give me great hope in that one working ;(
[17:10] <frib> ditto
[17:10] <SchrodingersScat> it doesn't prompt for sudo?
[17:10] <frib> it did and i put in pw
[17:10] <frib> this time i will just try from terminal as sudo
[17:11] <frib> i.e. the gui prompted me
[17:11] <SchrodingersScat> frib: well, also see above, you really want gksudo.
[17:11] <frib> i will remember that for next time.. thanks
[17:18] <ubuntu198> how can enable intl? I installed with apt-get. php -m doesn't show the module. What can I do?
[17:18] <whatthe> Is there a command to run fsck with auto yes?
[17:19] <ner0x> Hello all. Is there a way to watch a file for changes and execute a script/command when changes occur? Attempting to automatically compile latex into a pdf when I save(:w) the file opened in vim.
[17:19] <whatthe> ner0x: There's inotify I think
[17:20] <SchrodingersScat> whatthe: -y
[17:20] <whatthe> SchrodingersScat: thanks :p
[17:20] <SchrodingersScat> !info incron | ner0x
[17:20] <ner0x> whatthe: I've seen that in a few searches but after installing and trying it out none of the examples I used worked.
[17:20] <whatthe> SchrodingersScat: Danm, you beat me to it. I was wrecking my brain trying to remember what i used :p
[17:21] <SchrodingersScat> ner0x: the major limitation of that that I remember was that it didn't watch subdirectories, but otherwise you should be able to set it up to watch for a write or whatever your case is.
[17:22] <whatthe> It's pretty neat
[17:26] <frib> i can't get my laptop to boot with a live usb.  this time i made it again with usb-creator-gtk and there were no errors.
[17:27] <frib> says "missing operating system".  i thought maybe it doesn't  support usb boot.. it's a toshiba qosmio.  but i checked in the firmware and it has a legacy support option, which leads me to believe it supports efi
[17:27] <frib> any help appreciated... thanks
[17:31] <kernelcruncher> How can I get find how space is being used in /   currently my root is full. I'd like to see a terminal output that shows where the most space is being used
[17:32] <rvca> du -a /home | sort -n -r | head -n 5
[17:32] <rvca> du is disk usage
[17:32] <rvca> and you'll sort the top 5
[17:32] <SchrodingersScat> !info ncdu | kernelcruncher I like ncdu, it gives you a listing of the largest directories that you can navigate through and delete things.
[17:32] <rvca> oh and change /home for /
[17:32] <rvca> oh nice.
[17:32] <rvca> that's even better
[17:33] <SchrodingersScat> to each their own, whatever your use case is, but yeah du
[17:33] <Guest98663> Hi. Question re: best practices. Is there much difference between using /etc/rc.local or cron(@reboot operand)? Any pros/cons? Thanks.
[17:33] <pnwise> Does anyone know what is called the gnome tool to change the default applications so I can install it.
[17:34] <Keydns> irssi is the first package ive installed from apt-get, what is another fun/easy to use terminal based package/app (is that what  they are called/)?
[17:35] <Guest98663> Keydns, for kicks and exploration?
[17:35] <tking0036> Keydns: cmus is a good ncurses itunes typed thing
[17:35] <Keydns> Guest09663 yes
[17:35] <Guest98663> Keydns, someone just mentioned ncdu. I put that on all my machines now.
[17:35] <kernelcruncher> ubottu, SchrodingersScat And if ncdu is not installed?
[17:35] <Guest98663> kernelcruncher, sudo apt install ncdu
[17:35] <Keydns> ty
[17:36] <SchrodingersScat> kernelcruncher: if you're really at 100% then you are out of luck until you clear something, in that case the du line above should help you out some.
[17:36] <kernelcruncher> * and if root is full
[17:36] <SchrodingersScat> it's 94KB installed, so
[17:36] <kernelcruncher> * delete something I guess
[17:37] <Keydns> thank you again
[17:37] <Guest98663> Hi. Question re: best practices. Is there much difference between using /etc/rc.local or cron(@reboot operand)? Any pros/cons? Thanks.
[17:38] <Keydns> i am also looking for a text sharing package, one i can freely download/upload text documents from a large database from many people
[17:38] <SchrodingersScat> tell me more
[17:38] <Guest98663> Keydns, you mean web based?
[17:39] <Keydns> well, anyway.
[17:39] <tking0036> Keydns i've got a vim plugin for github gists
[17:39] <SchrodingersScat> !systemd | Guest98663 is the answer systemd?  I know sometimes my @reboots don't run, idk what user error it is ;(
[17:39] <Keydns> what is github?
[17:39] <Keydns> i have a book on vim commands
[17:40] <Guest98663> Keydns, you're probably best searching that exact question..outside the scope of this chan
[17:40] <Some_Person> I don't see any settings for screensavers in ubuntu 16.04... which package is recommended for this?
[17:40] <Guest98663> SchrodingersScat, il go with rc.local then
[17:42] <Keydns> tking0036 i am looking for something with simple text documents so i can learn more about permissions and file/directory manipulation. also, things people want to share
[17:42] <Some_Person> I'm setting up a box attached to an old CRT and don't want to risk burn-in on it
[17:42] <somethis> hello good ppl
[17:42] <SchrodingersScat> !info xscreensaver | Some_Person: I use xscreensaver, although this seems to be optional in ubuntu, so not sure what the default was.
[17:43] <Some_Person> I know it used to be gnome-screensaver, but oddly that's already installed
[17:43] <SchrodingersScat> !info gnome-screensaver
[17:44] <SchrodingersScat> k
[17:44] <Some_Person> My knowledge of ubuntu is years out of date... I stopped using it I think around 4-5 years ago
[17:45] <Guest98663> hi somethis
[17:45] <Guest98663> Some_Person, maybe a setting to blank screen and shut off crt instead of screensaver?
[17:45] <SchrodingersScat> I like the xscreensaver gltext, gives me a date and time :>
[17:47] <Some_Person> Yeah, I'd prefer something visual than a blank screen honestly
[17:48] <Some_Person> "In GNOME 3, GNOME Screensaver was drastically simplified, supporting only screen blanking and no graphical screen savers." -- this would explain why the option's gone
[17:48] <tking0036> Some_Person I really like this http://bit.ly/2csRpAa
[17:49]  * Some_Person shakes fist at gnome 3
[17:50] <Some_Person> tking0036: It just pixelates the screen?
[17:50] <SchrodingersScat> Some_Person: can deal with it with xscreensaver, and if you like options then the extra packages have a bunch you can go through.
[17:51] <Some_Person> SchrodingersScat: Thanks, I'll give it a try
[17:51] <zanakyn> i have a partition with an ubuntu backup that i'm not booted from. is it safe to rm -rf that entire partition if my goal is to empty it out and restore a newer backup into it? i've heard issues about rm -rf / killing a part of data stored on the actual motherboard, so i'm not sure. i could always destroy/recreate the partition if needed
[17:51] <tking0036> Some_Person: yes
[17:52] <zanakyn> just wondering if theres a straightforward way where i can leave the partition sized the way it is
[17:52] <Some_Person> tking0036: Well unless there's movement, that wouldn't prevent any burn-in
[17:52] <Keydns> im looking for a terminal package that allows me to access text files people are currently sharing or have shared.
[17:52] <tking0036> Oops didn't realize that is what you were trying to accomplish
[17:52] <SchrodingersScat> Keydns: how are they sharing them?
[17:53] <Keydns> some kind of database i suppose
[17:53] <zanakyn> i dont think theres any open hosting of stuff like that outside of typical pastebins and things like that
[17:53] <Keydns> ok thank you
[17:53] <zanakyn> though theres always textfiles.com :P
[17:54] <SchrodingersScat> Keydns: person before mentioned github, which uses git.  From there you can push and pull things.
[17:54] <SchrodingersScat> zanakyn: under construction
[17:58] <SchrodingersScat> Keydns: depends on what you're actually trying to do, like do you basically want a bulletin board system?

[18:13] <dougquaid> gde33: Yes
[18:13] <SchrodingersScat> Keydns: I normally have iftop and htop open in a screen, so I can watch my network traffic and system resources in one window
[18:13] <gde33> dougquaid: just have spaces between them?
[18:13] <dougquaid> yup

[18:26] <janat> *still break my comp, even though most of the stuff is locked in?
[18:27] <prussian> idk
[18:27] <SchrodingersScat> janat: #ubuntu+1 likely has more detail

[19:31] <OerHeks> Guest67271, join #ubuntu-ops for that, #freenode is under ddos attack, so enjoy the ride
[19:31] <Exagone313> Guest67271: probably because of the net splits and the bot not aware of this possible problem
[19:31] <Exagone313> so it count you as a connection problem, but it's not from your side
[19:31] <OerHeks> maybe that IP range is used for this ddos ...
[19:32] <Exagone313> he talks about this channel
[19:33] <Guest67271> arf ok
[19:33] <Exagone313> you can connect to other channels right?
[19:33] <Exagone313> if not ask on #freenode
[19:34] <Guest67271> so freenode netsplit is because of ddos ?

I have the entry setup but for some reason it doesn't execute my command. syslog tells me it's executed but "pdflatex" never actually runs. Any experience with this? Or if you can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
[20:27] <maxb> r121: because your debian/control file doesn't list any binary package, I'd guess
[20:29] <r121> maxb: how to list binary ?
[20:29] <maxb> Read about what you're supposed to put in that file and do it
[20:30] <r121> I am creating package for application. (for installation puspose)
[20:31] <Bashing-om> !find soduku-solver-1.0
[20:31] <OerHeks> sounds more like a question for #debian ?
[20:36] <r121> maxb : now i am getting this error http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23226562/
[20:38] <maxb> You appear to be attempting to learn packaging from scratch by bumping into error messages.
[20:39] <maxb> May I suggest you find some introductory documentation and work through it slowly instead? It will likely prove less frustrating for you
[20:40] <darek> hello
[20:41] <zackychan> Hi everybody , whenever I put a startup script my java program shows "too many open files " because init properties of Ubuntu are applied after the script is launched. my question is : how can I start a script at ubuntu server after all is initalized ?
[20:54] <GlemSom> I have a fairly large diff I want to examine (generated with diff -Naur). I know certain changes can be ignored... So, I would like to remove "line that contains XXX, and 4 liens before and after" - so I can clean-up my diff.. But I cannot get my head around doing that.
[20:54] <GlemSom> I know grep -v does not work with -A4 -B4

[20:54] <GlemSom> And I know sed is parsing one line at the time...
[20:54] <GlemSom> So, any other got an idea for doing this ?
[20:56] <rypervenche> GlemSom: awk should be able to do that, but how is beyond me.
[21:00] <Keydns> i'm looking for a p2p terminal based text file sharing program.
[21:05] <joao> i need help
[21:06] <joao> i want to go back to windows 10
[21:06] <Keydns> call microsoft and ask them to refresh your cd key on your install whlie it it connected to the internet
[21:07] <Rarrikins> joao: Did you erase Windows?
[21:08] <joao> i got it on usb but when i boot it says failed to load ldlinux.c32 boot failed:please change disks and press a key to continue
[21:08] <OerHeks> joao, try ##windows
[21:08] <joao> whats that?
[21:08] <joao> or where
[21:09] <gr1ff1n83> hi
[21:09] <joao> oerheks?
[21:09] <OerHeks> joao, we are not the windows helpdesk, ubuntu only.
[21:09] <Rarrikins> joao: You can type /join ##windows
[21:10] <joao> ok ill try that thanks
[21:10] <funkadactyl> I have a question about avahi daemon if any one is familiar with it. I have it configured for remote desktop. If I have that working do I need the ubuntu gui app running?
[21:10] <OerHeks> the only tool to make a working windows usb is etcher, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/05/etcher-usb-image-burner-tool-linux-open-source
[21:11] <funkadactyl> The reason why I ask is because I am using it for afp on my mac, and I have the server on my finder then under that the remote desktop, under the server icon I can hit share screen and have a seamless integration, then I just have a redundant connection underneath.
[21:17] <zackychan> is there anybody ?
[21:18] <gr1ff1n83> hi
[21:21] <mlvmhn> what other versions of Ubuntu is there besides the LTS?
[21:22] <frib> I just did a netboot install and accidentally skipped over the "Extra packages" installation list.  how can I get a desktop running at boot? thanks
[21:22] <bekks> mlvmhn: Currently none.
[21:22] <zartarr> hey guys im trying to find a place where i can download a super key sticker image that i can replace my windows with on my thinkpad keyboard
[21:22] <zartarr> anyone have any useful link?
[21:22] <mlvmhn> k what about the werewolf version releases earlier?
[21:22] <zartarr> also looking for a tiny rectangle like one to replace the lenovo model branding on the screen
[21:23] <bekks> mlvmhn: there never was an ubuntu version name werewolf.
[21:23] <mlvmhn> k, do i need to set a password for my new installation of the LTS?
[21:24] <bekks> mlvmhn: Yes.
[21:24] <mlvmhn> can ubuntu choose one for me?
[21:24] <bekks> mlvmhn: No.
[21:24] <zackychan>  Hi everybody , whenever I put a startup script my java program shows "too many open files " because init properties of Ubuntu are applied after the script is launched. my question is : how can I start a script at ubuntu server after all is initalized ?
[21:24] <Rarrikins> bekks: Wily Werewolf (http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/wily/)
[21:25] <bekks> Rarrikins: Oh, indeed.
[21:25] <bekks> !15.10 | mlvmhn
[21:26] <zackychan> please help me
[21:26] <mlvmhn> k, so what do i install if i dont want LTS?
[21:26] <bekks> mlvmhn: Nothing. Because there is no supported version rather than 14.04 and 16.04 currently.
[21:27] <Rarrikins> mlvmhn: LTS isn't a bad thing. If you want, you can wait for late October's 16.10.
[21:27] <Rarrikins> mlvmhn: That's the next non-LTS version.
[21:27] <mlvmhn> ok, so i can install Werewolf in the meantime?
[21:28] <bekks> mlvmhn: No. 15.10 isnt supported anymore.
[21:28] <root-j> ae
[21:28] <root-j> galera do mal
[21:28] <Rarrikins> mlvmhn: You can, but it's a bad idea. Ubuntu won't give you any security updates, so you're unsafe with that version.
[21:28] <Rarrikins> mlvmhn: Is there a reason why you don't want LTS for now?
[21:29] <mlvmhn> k i am on a slower laptop but other distros cant find my wifi
[21:31] <OerHeks> other distros cant, ubuntu cant i would say
[21:32] <mlvmhn> i tried to install lubuntu but it could not find my wifi network, same with Xubuntu,kubuntu and mint
[21:32] <kk4ewt> mlvmhn,  whate wireless card
[21:32] <kk4ewt> what
[21:32] <bekks> mlvmhn: So did you try to manually install the driver for your wifi chipset?
[21:33] <mlvmhn> nope noob here it must just work out of the box after installing like ubuntu does
[21:33] <bekks> mlvmhn: Most likely that will not happen :)
[21:34] <OerHeks> maybe the driver tool gives a driver suitable for your chipset
[21:34] <OerHeks> that would probably need a wired network connection
[21:35] <mlvmhn> so credits to ubuntu for working good after install
[21:42] <justinabrahms> Hi all. I updated my laptop to 16.04. When I get to my login screen, I have no keyboard or mouse (also tried external keyboard). It seems like everything is frozen. It seems fine if I boot into recovery mode or unlock my encrypted HDD. Any thoughts?
[21:43] <justinabrahms> So.. Keyboard certainly works. It has something to do with the graphical login screen.
[21:43] <justinabrahms> Not sure how to debug because it freezes my system.

[22:10] <gnome> using it like now is annoying

[22:42] <savino> seems i read on twitter have freenode netsplits
[22:42] <Bashing-om> knight_: Depends on what you ask, as to who raises a hand .
[22:43] <Bashing-om> savino: Yes, freenode is being ddosed.
[22:43] <savino> hmm
[22:43] <knight_> bashing-om, i cant seem to write or create anything on my micro sd card which is in an sd card adapter
[22:43] <savino> head server is closed
[22:44] <Bashing-om> knight_: Check the permissions on the mount point when the SD card should be active ?
[22:44] <knight_> i have and it wont let me change them. i even did sudo nautilus and tried to change them and still no go
[22:45] <Bashing-om> savino: Try to connect again . maybe pick up a different server in the rotation .
[22:45] <quidnunc> My computer just froze and then, after a few seconds, rebooted itself. How can I find out why?
[22:46] <Bashing-om> quidnunc: A read of /var/log/syslog or dmesg reveal anything ?
[22:46] <Bashing-om> knight_: What file system is on the SD card(s) ?
[22:46] <savino> i have pick one and seems here all ok
[22:46] <quidnunc> Bashing-om: I didn't see anything, is there a marker for when a boot/reboot occurs?
[22:47] <knight_> either fat or fat32. not sure
[22:48] <Bashing-om> quidnunc: no marker, look at the time stamps for when it went down and re-booted . maybe something significant just prior to shutting down .
[22:48] <quidnunc> Bashing-om: I didn't see anything
[22:48] <quidnunc> Bashing-om: in syslog. dmesg is just current boot (?)
[22:49] <Bashing-om> qIoangogo: old dmesg are also in /var/log/ directory . dmesg.0 .
[22:51] <Bashing-om> knight_: Access rights to the Windows' file systems are set at the mount point . How are you trying to mount the devices ?
[22:51] <knight_> well it was mounting automatically but now its not popping up at all
[22:55] <knight_> hey Bashing-om brb
[22:55] <Bashing-om> knight_: Not the best person to advise ya about Windows' file system . but if automounting .. take a look at ' ls -al /media/<username> ' Maybe try and mount the device from terminal with a different set mount point ??

[23:12] <YUTrainee> I am teaching a class to underprivileged inner-city youth and would like to demonstrate the merits of Linux. There are students who have heard of RPi's and vaguely know Linux exists, however, the vast majority are unaware of what the OS can do. I'd like to expose them to intermediate and advanced skills/projects/demonstrations in order to inspire them to learn about it.
[23:12] <YUTrainee> Would any of you have something to share that I could pass on to my class?
[23:13] <OerHeks> good start https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RaspberryPi
[23:13] <OerHeks> and mate has a perfect desktop https://ubuntu-mate.org/raspberry-pi/
[23:14] <OerHeks> also there is an #ubuntu-arm channel here on #freenode
[23:14] <YUTrainee> OerHeks: I'll take a look. WOuld you know of any videos of demonstrations? I have a limited time each week and would like to share them on a community page I've set up.
[23:15] <OerHeks> furthermore, ubuntu snap and IiT is populair, https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/start/raspberry-pi-2/

[23:19] <Some_Person> Hmm... partition alignment on SSDs is kinda confusing me, and I'm reading some conflicting things online about it
[23:22] <akik> Some_Person: what do you read? you can use the ssd the same way as any storage device
[23:23] <Some_Person> I've read that the alignment of the partitions on an SSD can affect performance
[23:24] <akik> Some_Person: i wouldn't worry about it
[23:34] <raspberry>  I'm trying to rescue some data from a mate 15.10 install on a pi2 microSD, which will no longer boot following a crash, can anyone help?
