=== bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [00:00] RustyShackleford: your question comes across as a bit confused. You can run a script in, e.g., /usr/local/bin (presuming it's in PATH) from anywhere. Where you are running from is called the "current working directory" and the path to your executable is something else. [00:00] RustyShackleford are you aware you can add an alieas to /etc/hosts for an ip address? I have names for all my servers on the home network [00:00] th0r: another good point [00:00] afaict, aliases are a terrible way to workaround IP<->hostname lookups [00:01] hmm /etc/hosts might be better then [00:01] maybe terrible is too strong -- seem likes a mis-use, at least :) [00:01] Jordan_U: Oh :) Is it possible that the animations in gnome 3 are just sluggish and my system is actually working properly? Would be a shame, I really like the DE but the slowness kills it for me. Do the animations run smoothly on integrated graphics normally? [00:01] nacc: you're confused between alias and functions [00:02] and I meant alias only in the sense that it is a name for an ip address [00:02] debkad: I'm not sure that I am, but I think RustyShackleford's goal has nothing to do with the shell, really [00:02] ~/dotfiles/install.sh, which will run ln -s bash_profile ~/.bash_profile [00:03] if I dont first cd ~/dotfiles, that command won't find bash_profile [00:03] nacc: i agreed about that [00:03] because it will search in your working directory, right? [00:04] RustyShackleford: it completely depends on what install.sh does [00:04] etc/hosts would be systemwide and for all users. [00:04] anyway, I appreciate the help. I need food to think more clearly, brb. [00:04] RustyShackleford: but presuming it's written exactly as written, yes, it's all relative to cwd [00:04] haha have a good one [00:05] nacc: anyway to not make it depend on cwd? [00:05] RustyShackleford, supply full path/filename for all references in the script [00:05] suppose its not the end of the world to first cd ~/dotfiles, then run my script. I shouldn't need to do it very often hah [00:05] RustyShackleford: use an absolute path? or do some manipulation of $0 [00:06] th0r: well then you lose portability. Suppose I share this with a friend on github, his user folder is not the same because he has a different name than me [00:06] tbh, this functionality seems pretty broken ... :) [00:06] and you shouoldn't be using your user name, clearly, you're either using ~ or $HOME [00:06] RustyShackleford, true, but you didn't mention portability, just making it work anywhere in the structure [00:06] but again, this all probably belongs on #bash and not here [00:07] alright I'll bug those folks after dinner [00:07] simplest solution seems to be to cd to the dotfiles folder first === none__ is now known as none === root___11 is now known as lotusX [00:17] Test, is this message seen? [00:18] no it is not [00:18] thanks! [00:18] try again tomorrow [00:18] Hi, my system won't boot because of data storage. I have booted using a live disk and am in the shell. How can I mount my HD to remove old files? [00:19] mount /dev/sda1 /mnt [00:19] ? [00:20] can't see a sda1 [00:20] looking in dev there is no SD* anything [00:20] how obut hda [00:21] no [00:21] u sure you fully booted the live cd? [00:21] I booted ubuntu install disk > recovery mode > execute a shell [00:21] am I in the wrong shell? [00:21] SaintMoriarty, is the HD internal? [00:21] yes it is [00:21] SaintMoriarty: why dont you just boot the live-usb to the "try ubuntu " desktop. [00:22] SaintMoriarty: then you can just click in the file manager onto the disks and they will mount them [00:22] is the live-usb different from he ubuntu install disk? [00:22] SaintMoriarty: "ubuntu install disk"? [00:22] yes [00:23] you meant the disk where you installed ubuntu on? [00:24] is running "apt-get remove --purge" == "apt-get purge" ? [00:25] bynarie: from `man apt-get`: "remove --purge is equivalent to the purge command" [00:25] ok, thank you [00:25] i figured so [00:25] Hello [00:25] SaintMoriarty: How did you prepare the "Ubuntu install disk" that you're currently using? What iso is it based on? === xubuntu is now known as Guest38248 [00:26] its the iso on the server download page [00:26] SaintMoriarty: the server iso doesnt have a live enviroment [00:26] which is more faster Lubuntu or Xubuntu [00:27] Guest38248: lubuntu is made for old and slow hardware. [00:27] can i use it to recover my server? [00:27] lubuntu is a bit lighter on resources [00:27] xubuntu is also fairly light [00:27] \should i use a different ISO? [00:28] SaintMoriarty: use somethign liek knoppix :-P [00:28] o_o [00:28] darkdrgn2k: you are in #ubuntu :D [00:28] debkad: and hes complaining he cant get the live cd to work to mount his ubuntu volume [00:29] debkad: i know knoppix just works "TM" so *shrug* [00:29] no, he is in shell again, not using gparted. [00:29] wow knoppix [00:29] thats a name i havent heard since ubuntu became vailable [00:29] on distrochooser it says that ubuntu builds connections to some servers in the background without the user knowing. do the other systems like xubuntu and lubuntu also do that? [00:30] does ubuntu desktop version have the live feature? [00:30] supposed to [00:30] Seife: sounds like FUD [00:30] Seife: thats outdated information [00:30] reliable source, Seife [00:30] OerHeks: i have heard rumors of that too to be honesty.. dont know what to make of them [00:30] did they remoe the Amazon thing from ubuntu? [00:31] orlock: yes, its opt-in [00:31] From Unity you mean? [00:31] Yeah as k1l said it's opt-in by default. [00:31] SaintMoriarty, if you are just looking to recover something and not install, i would recommend xubuntu live iso because its quick and mostly non-bloated [00:31] aanybody familiar with the wifi pinnapple === anonymous is now known as Guest57244 [00:31] bynarie, downloading [00:31] ! Ask | frost_ [00:31] ok [00:31] frost_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [00:31] frost_: no, but what about it? [00:32] frost_: Isn't that the thing that got zero day'd or something? [00:32] sorry didn't want to make false statements here. I just heard that and that people want to move away from the canonical beacuse of that [00:32] frost_: also, somebody will tell you to go elswhere as it's not ubuntu related [00:32] i was asking if anybody has used it with ubuntu [00:32] hi [00:32] SaintMoriarty, i run xubuntu, not because its light on resources, but because i like the look. and its easy to navigate. the newer gnome3 desktop is just horrid IMO [00:33] bynarie: +1 [00:33] =] [00:33] bynarie: currently i run cinnamon. [00:33] bymarie i like xubuntu [00:33] but i dono :/ [00:33] currently usun [00:34] using ubuntu in metacity [00:34] cinnamon is also a good choice, once again, based on gnome2 (i think) [00:34] Any of you guys like MATE? I love it. [00:34] ok my files are in /dev/machinename-vg/root [00:34] but i can't cd into root [00:34] Although a bit too slow on my lappy so I went back to Debian and i3. [00:34] do i have to mount it [00:34] bynarie: ya fork of 2 [00:34] any desktop based on gnome2 is a good choice if you like simplicity. [00:34] SaintMoriarty: did you mount the dev? [00:34] no [00:34] you may want to mount it first [00:34] cinnamon is based on gnome3 but looks like gnome2 [00:35] yeh thast right... [00:35] mate is actually the old code from gnome2 [00:35] but its buggy LOL [00:35] yeah cinnamon is a fork from gnome3 [00:35] and i donno.. im having a hard time adjusting [00:35] enough choise [00:35] donno if its cinnamon. somethign im misisng.. or just my experiance with winblows [00:35] should i be mounting /root [00:35] how do u feel about gnome 3 [00:36] i dont like wha tthye did with gnome [00:36] its a little to tabblety for my liking [00:36] frost_: for the talk about taste better ask in #ubuntu-offtopic [00:36] !ot [00:36] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

I'm having a bit of a problem with (K)Ubuntu on a new laptop I've bought (X540S). It's a Quad-Core Pentium N3700 and it stalls quite often. In KSysGuard, I notice that during these freeze ups, many processes are getting "disk sleep" as "CPU %". It's a mechanical drive (not SSD), but I still think this shouldn't be happening as there's not much load on the PC (even Disk IO shouldn't be very high). Anyone have any [02:46] tips here or know any way I might be able to debug what's happening? [02:47] maybe open terminal and type: dmesg [02:47] might give you some info [02:47] might want to go to the kubuntu channel [02:49] Papabear: Yeah, I've checked dmesg... cannot see anything suspicious in there. Any other places you can think to look? [02:49] Papabear: I asked on #kubuntu a while ago, but this seems more like a Ubuntu-general (or Kernel) problem, i think. I don't think it's caused by KDE specifically. === Liz is now known as Guest95731 === JanC_ is now known as JanC [02:53] Papabear: I have 4GB swap (equivalent to the RAM size) setup... think disk cache could be getting prioritized here, thus slowing things down dramatically?

[03:00] bynarie: Going to try disabling it all together atm to see if that's where it's bottlenecking... if it is, it'd be good to be able to tweak it to something a bit better.

The syslog of connecting to the network can be found here: http://pastebin.com/YmJdzhsB Thanks in advance! [05:52] InnerCode: it says the router never confirms your DHCP_REQUEST after DHCP_OFFER, network stack gives up and nukes the link. router may be out of memory, COTS ones do that a lot. give it a powercycle and see what happens [05:53] ~Triffid_Hunter: Thanks! I will give it a try. It's a corporate Wifi network. [05:53] InnerCode: also why is it offering a 192.168.3 when server address is 192.168.1? 192.168 range is usually class C, not B, although it's a B-sized non-routable address range [05:53] InnerCode: and howcome the server doesn't respond to DHCP_DISCOVER? sounds like something is rather broken there [05:54] [05:55] testing [05:55] Triffid_Hunter: Because we don't use standard subnets here. netmask of 22 bits [05:55] CIDR all the things! [05:55] InnerCode: fair enough, still doesn't explain why the router won't respond to DHCPDISCOVER or confirm your DHCPREQUEST [06:03] CoderEurope, it is totem. https://launchpad.net/totem [06:04] cheers.

[06:31] any ideas? thanks in advance. [06:33] AJ_Z0, no, google sync built into browser [06:33] pikapikachu: One approach is to purge all nvidia-* packages and use the proprietary driver detection to find, install and activate the nvidia driver [06:33] i.e. the name in the upper right corner of its title bar [06:34] it says "Service unavailable. Try again later" [06:34] spotter: I know what you mean. It the icon yellow? If so, then click it and provide your encryption passphrase, else it's some other issue [06:34] from what I can tell this might be an api key issue if its not just me [06:34] AJ_Z0: thanks. but when I use nvidia-detector, it says 'none', but lspci can still find nvidia [06:35] AJ_Z0, I have. multiple times, and even tried other accounts, always same thing [06:35] pondering blowing away my .chromium setup and see if it makes a differrence [06:35] pikapikachu: Do you have hybrid graphics? If so, then it may work differently (and I've never used it) [06:36] AJ_Z0: oh yes, I have an intel card and a nvidia card. thanks anyway. [06:38] spotter: You can test by renaming .config/chromium/ [06:38] nope didn't make a difference [06:39] yea, that's what I did my "blowing away" [06:39] moved it away, restart, tried to log in and nada [06:45] google chrome works though [06:45] spotter: FWIW, it's working for me with current chromium on up-to-date Xenial, already syncing and running.

[06:49] spotter: The slight version difference suggests there may be a new chromium package along shortly in Yakkety and that may fix what should be a highly visible problem (assuming it's not just you, which seems likely).

[07:00] not initially no [07:00] I used lxc-create to make it [07:01] RudyValencia: because libvirt lxc is not the same thing as regular lxc, it just uses the same kernel framework. [07:01] RudyValencia: one can't see the other. [07:01] so I need to redo this container? [07:02] RudyValencia: if you want to control it with libvirt you need to set it up with libvirt [07:02] I'm even checking with running it outside libvirt [07:03] RudyValencia: i don't know if you can somehow create an xml file for libvirt for it, never tried that. [07:03] I have a libvirt xml file from virt-manager [07:04] but the same thing happens even with lxc-stop when started by lxc-start with a config file in the directory [07:04] RudyValencia: it won't stop?

[08:37] ineedhelp: yes [08:38] ok sounds easy [08:40] Is there a way of specifying package options that are normally manually entered, or set via debconf-set-selections via the apt-get command? [08:40] one problem with teh virtualbox installation [08:40] i run it and the virtual machine pauses because it doesnt have access to the hard drive [08:44] ppf: u there? [08:44] Good afternoon [08:45] Would you like to visit and help new chat? Www.greekircnet.gr [08:48] lo, i'm in a bit of a catch22 here, ubuntu-bug starts apport-kde which fails miserably [08:49] when i select "other" next dialog asks me what sort of display error i get, and then segfaults [08:50] so how am i supposed to report this bug? [08:50] so that i can report the bug i initially wanted to report half an hour ago :) === pavlushka is now known as Guest6734 [08:51] !bug | Tuxick [08:51] Tuxick: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [08:51] speaking of catch22 :) === Guest6734 is now known as pavlushka [09:02] can someone please tell me whether the directory ~/.config is part of Ubuntu's distribution? i.e. it is Ubuntu's way of organizing user's session configuration and app and other user settings? [09:03] I spent the last several hours figuring out why my multi-monitor configuration persists with no "xorg.conf". [09:03] superguest: it's a common directory on all linux distros, it's an open specification that many applications use [09:03] superguest: its not ubuntu specific. other distributions use that too [09:04] superguest: bet you will have some success by removing the monitors.xml file from there [09:04] yo [09:04] to reset the config [09:04] awak3: word [09:04] when i type "date" into ubuntu server its an hour heind [09:04] how do i change this [09:04] hour behind* [09:04] finally, I was able to locate a file called ~/.config/monitors.xml which stores the multi-monitor configuration. [09:05] popey: wut? [09:05] mattysmart: you can set the date with "date -s" [09:05] hi - i am struggling to change 1 shortcut on my unity ubuntu setup. The current shortcut is "command (mac keyboard) + w" - it makes all the windows kinda fly into the middle so i can choose them. Similar what gnome3 does on windows click [09:05] mattysmart: also, check your computer is in the right time zone. [09:05] I was wondering where I can change that, i'd like it to be on command + f1 [09:05] I know where the shortcuts are, but i don't know what this feature is called and the names don't help me [09:05] mattysmart: some companies install servers and set them to UTC rather than use daylight savings for example [09:05] pepey do you have a dummy example [09:05] popey, why didn't you tell me this 3 hours ago? :P [09:06] superguest: soz :) [09:06] http://codepad.org/cvRseXBA [09:09] popey , if when i do date it shows as 09:08:51 UTC 2016 how do i make it 10:08:51 UTC 2016 [09:09] mattysmart: you don't want to do that [09:09] why? [09:09] mattysmart: because that's not the time [09:10] notice UTC [09:10] i dont know what UTC is [09:10] Timezone [09:10] Universal [09:10] mattysmart: where is your server and where are you? [09:10] so i want to change timezone instead? [09:10] possibly [09:10] london , and uk [09:10] but do you really want to do that? :) [09:10] ok [09:11] mattysmart: sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata [09:11] i just need my users to see the correct time, because everything saving into mysql database is showing as created an hour ago [09:11] run that, to change timezone [09:11] sudo dpkg-reconfigure tz-data ? [09:11] damnit [09:11] padlefot: close ;) [09:11] but no cigar [09:11] one too many hyphens also [09:11] :P [09:11] popey woul dmine just be europe [09:12] no, BST [09:12] tab completion makes me lazy [09:12] UK is in British Summer Time right now, so pick "GMT With daylight savings" [09:12] do i go onto system V timezones? [09:12] you can choose location, europe -> uk -> london iirc [09:13] yes, just checked, choose Europe -> London. [09:13] popey, I originally configured my multi-monitor configuration via nvidia-settings. hmmm... not to get into the technical details, but I am thinking there has to be an rc file somwhere which auto-generates upon the creation of /etc/X11/xorg.conf [09:13] superguest: I use nvidia with no xorg.conf, sorry. [09:13] cheers thats done it [09:13] :) [09:13] mattysmart: yay! [09:13] (-: [09:13] but my mysql records are all an hour out of date , poop [09:14] time for a funky bit of sql [09:14] also, the app should probably save in the db in UTC [09:14] rather than server timezone. [09:14] also, watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5wpm-gesOY :D [09:14] my mysql field is just a timestamp [09:15] right, but can be adjusted before being written === tking0036 is now known as Guest59108 [09:15] How do I check the message of the day? ask.ubuntu says it's in /etc/motd but I can't find that [09:16] yeah [09:17] anyways thanks for the help , im off the sql land now, you may never see me again :( [09:17] adieu === solon is now known as list === list is now known as solon === Moderator is now known as Guest34800 === Apachez_ is now known as Apachez [09:51] Where is the timezone database stored in Ubuntu?

[11:38] ikonia: that doesn't work [11:38] bhaisaab: using porxies/vpn? [11:38] monk: no idea [11:38] ikonia: I'm actually the repository builder. Thanks. [11:38] tcorneli: works fine [11:38] helpful [11:38] I'm not using any proxies/vpn. The issue seems to be a 'dot', period in the URL that apt-get is unable to follow. [11:38] bhaisaab: then you should be able to debug it on your repo [11:38] Anyway to fix that? [11:38] ikonia: if it works for you, it's less secure [11:38] bhaisaab: look at the repos web log [11:38] tcorneli: no it's not [11:38] tcorneli: wat [11:39] tcorneli: I suggest you stop stating things you don't understand as fact [11:39] ikonia: have you bothered to read what i sent? [11:39] and just ask for help [11:39] tcorneli: yes, [11:39] @ikonia: the repository is on S3 so makes debugging tricky. The general question here is how to make apt-get resolve the . (period) to the same URL path. [11:39] tcorneli: are you aware that mysql root is not the system root? [11:39] apt-get thinks that the url http://packages.shapeblue.com/cloudstack/upstream/debian/4.9/./cloudstack-cli_4.9.0_all.deb is 404, how to make it resolve the URL to http://packages.shapeblue.com/cloudstack/upstream/debian/4.9/cloudstack-cli_4.9.0_all.deb [11:39] <[_]`> I have a HSSD, i can see the 1TB HD as external HD visually. but i can't find this through command line :s i looked in /mnt and /tmp. any idea?

[11:40] k1l_: thanks, I can try to fix that [11:40] specifying localhost (normally) means you're connecting to the socket [11:40] tcorneli: yes, [11:40] [_]`, check output of "lsblk" or "mount" [11:42] so if authentication type is set to auth_socket, you cannot use mysql -u root -p [11:42] tcorneli: yes you can [11:42] tcorneli: I think it's pointless to discuss this, as you seem convinced of something that is just wrong [11:42] tcorneli: take it to the mysql/maria channels and work it through with them [11:44] tcorneli: i repeat, the two commands are identical, modulo the fact the in the latter you type in the pw on stdin. --host defaults to localhost if not given [11:44] ppf: it's pointless, he's read something that random stangers on the internet have said [11:44] nothing can change that authority [11:44] <[_]`> ouroumov: thanks. it showed that it was in media/user/ and it is indeed there. http://pastebin.ca/3723102 [11:44] well if it's on the internets, who am i to argue! [11:44] :) [11:45] if it's reproducible, i would argue it's correct [11:46] <[_]`> Oh a side note, is there a specific way to install Ubuntu on a HSSD? i can only manage to install it so that its all installed in the 8 GB SSD and sees the 1TB HDD as external or something. I don't have problem with this but i keep getting a warning that i only have 400 mb free space left :( [11:46] tcorneli: then you carry on believing that, and the rest of the ubuntu community will use maria just fine [11:47] to bring up my initial question since ppl are around :D [11:48] does anyone know of a profiling tool for the OS? something to benchmark HW / SW compatibilty or something? I have a super laggy system. everything I open takes 10-30 seconds and sorta halts the entire OS [11:48] steven: if it's lagging whats the point of benchmarking it [11:48] cpu's are running on 80-100% when I open stuff, and its all just really unusable [11:48] steven: why don't you just focus on working through the problem [11:48] and how would I do that? [11:48] steven: how much ram do you have [11:49] I open my terminal and it takes 15 seconds and 4 cores jump to 100% [11:49] 8gb [11:49] steven: what cpu do you have [11:49] ram is not an issue, ram is sorta the only thing "sane" on the machine, intel i5 [11:49] steven: that may be you use some kind of hungry desktop [11:49] steven: you can profile the kernel with perf. but i don't think that'll tell you much [11:49] steven: what version of ubuntu do you have [11:49] (be specific please) [11:49] do you have fancy things in your bashrc? [11:49] or whatever shell you're using [11:50] stock unity DE, ubuuntu 16.04, and yeah I do have a fancy temrinal setup, but the same issue happens when I open chrome, my ide, my editors, chrome, thunderbird, etc. [11:50] steven: ok - so what process is eating up the cpu [11:50] that happen to me too, someone tell me it is related to mailing or something, he suggest me to disable MAIL [11:51] ikonia [11:51] autocompletion can take a little time too [11:51] atm I have hipchat taking ~40% of the cpu (according to htop) [11:51] steven: time to use another desktop [11:51] steven: ok - kill hip chat [11:51] debkad: no it's not [11:51] debkad: stop saying random things with no basis please [11:52] steven: dos something else take cpu - or does the machine respond fine [11:52] ikonia: unity is much hangry on memory, every body know that [11:52] i've noticed on some older setups, bash-completion is a bit of an hog [11:52] debkad: he has no memeory problesm with 8gb - his cpu is maxed out [11:52] debkad: you have no basis to say that, so please be quiet [11:52] ikonia: hmm [11:54] ok so if I closed all apps but the terminal, I have xorg avg around 12% and gnome-terminal around 10 [11:54] I closed hipchat, chrome, and thunderbird. the thing is. neither of those apps should take that much HW resources [11:54] steven: so you have approx %80 cpu free [11:54] correct ? [11:54] 80-90 ish, yeah. [11:54] steven: how does the system respond now (eg: using gnome terminal, moving the window around etc) [11:56] so I just move stuff around and having hhtop open to see what resources get allocated and I move the temrinal around and stuff and it jumps up to 25-30% [11:56] question: is there a lighty zoom tool for lubuntu ? [11:56] hello [11:56] hi [11:56] steven: interesting, so the redraw is struggling [11:56] steven: what video card is on your system [11:56] which is better to choose " Network Security , Artifical Intelligence, Network Programming, Fundamentals of Enterprise Application Development " ? [11:56] dcz: how are we supposed to know what you're interested in [11:57] dcz: thats nothing to do with ubuntu [11:57] dcz: this channel is just an ubuntu support channel [11:57] PS: i tried xzoom, vmg but no big success [11:57] ikonia: trying to figure it out [11:57] but its all laggy :D [11:58] intel hd 3000 I think [11:58] steven: you don't know what video card you have ?

Upgrade ok but now each time I try to install or remove anything with apt I receive the following error chmod: cannot access '/sbin/udevd': No such file or directory E: Problem executing scripts DPkg::Pre-Invoke 'chmod -x /sbin/udevd' [11:58] its an onboard ikonia [11:58] laptop [11:58] it doesnt have a dedicated gpu [11:58] Trying to remove uninstall udevd as suggested on ubuntuforums didn't work [11:58] as anyone an idea? thanks [11:58] steven: so based on what you've said, I'm going to make a guess, your video card isn't configured correctly, so it's offloading general graphics work onto the cpu [11:59] could be, sounds reasonable [11:59] nunor: sounds like the upgrade didn't work and left a package hook pending [11:59] → lspci | grep VGA [11:59] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06) [11:59] 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Mars XTX [Radeon HD 8790M] (rev ff) [11:59] ikonia: maybe steven has an old i5 generation processor or is what you already said about graphic card [11:59] nunor: look at what package is complaining, look if /sbin/udevd exists [11:59] it does have a dedicated one, didnt know that. but I dont think its using it [11:59] steven: so there is an AMD card too [11:59] no /sbin/udevd is not existing [11:59] steven: so I think you can narrow it down from there [12:00] the vmg support text only for zooming, xzomm is a mess, if someone have a clue about that [12:00] nunor: ok - look at what package provides it [12:00] maybe I should try to make the gpu one work [12:00] steven: look in the xorg log, see what xorg driver is being used/loaded [12:01] ikonia how can I check that? I'm not an expert... [12:02] nunor: look at the package manifests or use apt-file [12:02] oh it loaded both, intel and radaeon. ikonia [12:02] steven: thats not a bad thing, you're on ubuntu 16.04 right / [12:02] ? [12:03] yes [12:03] steven: so you may want to research "amdgpu" xorg driver [12:03] I have seen that xfce ( xubuntu ) with 4.12 version have that ability for zooming, wonder if lxde can have something similar, or any kind of thing close to that purpose [12:04] hi [12:04] hi [12:04] thats the new driver ikonia ? was it amd which dropped the closed source driver? [12:04] steven: thats right [12:04] I just read that some vendor dropped support to force users to use the open source one [12:05] steven: other things to look at, you may want to try enabling/disabling one of the cards in the bios (if possilbe) to just focus on getting one working at this moment in time [12:05] from where are you @debkad [12:05] steven: I'd put money it's the overall graphics load being offloaded onto your cpu [12:05] I have bad experience with gpus and linux ikonia, didnt catch up the last few years but in the past it always broke my OS [12:05] no idea how things have changed [12:06] but imma install xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu [12:06] and disable the onboard one, if the OS boots its a win [12:06] I find udev/xenial-updates,now 229-4ubuntu8 amd64 [installed] [12:06] root@braveheart:~# locate udevd [12:06] nunor: so something has removed the binary outside of the package manager [12:06] nunor: re-apply that package to get the binary back [12:07] nunor: understand which package is depending on it [12:07] yes because in /sbin udevd is not existing anymore [12:07] asking if there is a lighty zoom tool for lubuntu ? i tried xzoom, vmg but no big success [12:07] debkad: please stop asking every few minutes, try to leave it at least 15 minutes between repeating [12:08] ikonia: i'm asking if there is such a tool [12:08] yeah fuck this, imma disable the onboard one and we'll maybe talk in a couple minutes again ikonia :D [12:08] debkad: yes, I can read [12:08] nunor: what package does that belong to? [12:08] steven: please don't swear [12:08] debkad: please leave it 15 minutes between asking [12:08] contextual, technically it wasnt swearing but gotcha [12:08] steven: it's swearing, please don't do it [12:09] ppf I don't know? [12:09] Which command can I use to check that? [12:09] ikonia: why you are so mad, i'm just asking a simple question, if you readed it, there are many who didn't seen it [12:09] debkad: I'm not mad, I'm asking you to please wait 15 minutes before repeating the question as you are doing it every few minutes [12:10] debkad: that was the second time i ask, the others was just an explaining of the situation [12:10] apt-file search [12:10] i hope you followed that [12:10] nunor, dpkg -l udev or apt-cache policy udev you can trace the file with dpkg -S /sbin/udevd [12:11] it doesn't exist on my system either, and i couldn't find a package containing it. hence my question [12:12] ppf, i got it ... on trusty it's a link to /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd [12:13] root@braveheart:/sbin# dpkg -S /sbin/udevd [12:13] dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /sbin/udevd === gms is now known as Guest19231 [12:15] root@braveheart:/sbin# dpkg -l udev [12:15] | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend [12:15] |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) [12:15] ||/ Name Version Architecture Description [12:15] +++-======================================-========================-========================-================================================================================= [12:15] ii udev 229-4ubuntu8 amd64 /dev/ and hotplug management daemon [12:15] root@braveheart:/sbin# [12:15] nunor: please use a pastebin [12:15] wow [12:15] don't do that please [12:15] nunor, http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/udev/filelist it does not exist anymore that file [12:15] nunor: so, if /sbin/udevd is a symlink to systemd-udevd, just add it manually?

[12:22] vmware is missleading, but it appears to be vmware who created it [12:22] (I'd assume for use with vmware) [12:22] Kartagis: accessing over the network won't help as each draw has to go over the network [12:23] 15 minutes passed, question: asking if there is a lighty zoom tool for lubuntu ? i tried xzoom, vmg but no big success [12:23] Hey folks [12:24] hi BluesKaj [12:24] hi debkad === jatt is now known as Guest67506 [12:26] Right so I have a question that I can't get any answers anywhere on the internet. I'm VERY new to linux and downloaded the latest version of Ubuntu, installed it on my Advent Tacto netbook. It had Windows 8.1 on previously and the touchpad was working.The touchscreen is working with Ubuntu but not the touchpad. Any ideas/suggestions for a beginner? [12:27] It'ss driving me nuts because I just want to get on with my web development, not fuck about installing things for my distro :/ [12:27] hello all I am getting this error while trying to pair a brand new mice logitech MX anywhere 2: http://paste.debian.net/843090/ [12:27] Yorno: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad [12:28] ikonia: disabled the discrete one since I wasnt able to disable the onboard one, we'll see how things work out [12:28] thanks for your help tho! [12:28] steven: no problem [12:29] I am also getting this output: http://paste.debian.net/843104/ [12:29] adding myself to the video group didn't help :( [12:29] Kartagis: no, but you can work it thorugh, now you understand it's software drawing [12:31] debkad: I dont see how that's going to help. There's no preferences options for anything in that wiki page [12:31] jair: that looks like debian [12:31] jair: are you using ubuntu or debian [12:32] Yorno: that was about touchpad, how it work and how to configure, and that link is an ubuntu wiki [12:32] debkad: That doesn't help me at all. [12:32] ok [12:32] debkad: I'm looking at how to make my touchpad work. Not anything about the already-working touchscreen [12:33] Yorno, there used to be a command line package, synclient, that did all sorts of things for the touchpad. You might see if it is still in the repos === jelly-home is now known as jelly [12:34] Yorno: may be someone else will help you ( the link have the troubleshooting if it wasn't working anyway ) [12:34] th0r: yeah it is mentionned on the link i gave him ( synclient -m 100 from the link ) [12:35] th0r: I'm on ubuntu software thingy, there's a synaptic package manager [12:36] Yorno, I don't deal with thingys. There might also be a command line program that will help you, if you are willing to take a look [12:36] th0r: I just want my fucking touchpad to work :'( [12:37] th0r: Wireless works, a touchscreen works, but a touchpad wont? What's that about? [12:37] Yorno, don't know...and don't respond well to attitude. I'm done [12:38] hey does someone have the new xps 13 (model no: 9360), and know how well it works with ubuntu? [12:38] hello [12:38] anyway returning to my question about any lighty zoom tool for lubuntu, tried xzoom, vmg , xzoom is ugly on zooming and not handy on passing arguments, vmg is not an official ubuntu soft and it support zooming on text only, it is a little better than xzoom but both not the app i want to use, the xfce >4.11 have that ability, i wonder if there is something similar [12:40] thanks in advance === tking0036 is now known as Guest84235 [12:40] Yorno: there are a couple of threads about it, but no solutions. [12:40] ducasse: This^ [12:41] ducasse: I've installed Cub Linux, Fedora and Ubuntu and it's the same thing: Touchscreen works, keyboard, external usb mouse and wireless all work. Just not the touchpad :'( [12:41] Yorno: which i'm guessing means 'custom hardware with no linux driver'. [12:42] ducasse: So you reckon I'll need some drivers installed via terminal or it's just not gonna work at all? [12:42] Yorno: the latter, most likely. [12:42] ducasse: Back to windows 8.1? :/ [12:43] what does ". ./etc" mean? [12:43] . is shorthand for source [12:43] what does ". ./foo" mean? [12:43] o_o [12:43] source being ? [12:44] jakey3: best to ask in #bash [12:44] a builtin in several shells [12:44] jakey3: 'help source' [12:44] it runs a script inside the running shell [12:44] ah ok === precise|salty is now known as precise [12:46] "Execute commands from a file in the current shell." as opposed to ? [12:48] jakey3: from PATH [12:48] jakey3: if you have some setup script that needs to change your current shell [12:51] Hello, is there still a way to install Ubuntu alongside a Windows install for 16.04 LTS or do I have to do the partitioning manually now? I couldn't find the option in the installer [12:51] jakey3: say you edit your .bashrc and want to apply those changes to your current shell - then you source it. [12:51] ok thanks for the info [12:54] holy sweet fudge [12:55] printers ^&*^&*(@^)*($*@+($* [12:55] ChetManly: how can we help you? [12:55] you know hplip? is there equal for samsung? [12:56] ChetManly: many printer manufacturer have driver packages, dunno about samsung. [12:57] my color laser printer has a driver but but I suspect it only using cups [12:59] thing is the first time I installed it only printed test page, then wouldnt respond to print job, went to windows to diagnose, that told me everything was empty... [13:00] ChetManly: have you looked up your printer on opennprinting.org? [13:00] shook cartridges reinstalled, worked on windows, works on linux but has no level indicator any more but did in buntu the first time [13:01] super weird 3 hours I spent... [13:01] ChetManly: you should be asked which driver to use when you set up the printer. [13:02] does that site have a hardware list [13:03] ChetManly: it lists which drivers works best for a wide variety of printers. [13:11] ChetManly: did you find your model? [13:14] Hello [13:14] ducasse: no === Guest97258 is now known as stkh [13:16] Hi I am using 16.04 Ubuntu gnome with US English layout but pressing keyboard button for ']' doesn't work pressing shift plus the key does produce '}'. I did not change anything about the layout and I have same problem with the same key on different keyboard layout. [13:16] samsung c410w [13:17] <\9> maret: are you sure that the keyboard isn't physically damaged? [13:17] yes as I've mentioned key plus shift works without problem [13:18] on 16.04, it looks like when switching keyword language (i use two shift keys), i need to release both keys. in the past, it would switch on key down. is there a way to change it? i hate having to release both keys. [13:19] btw I am using logitech k360 and I didn't install anything extra it worked out of the box and it is for example recognized by power settings. [13:22] How do i reinstall the iwlwifi module on Ubuntu? [13:23] uzrnm: wich chipset? [13:24] lotuspsychje:How do i inspect that? [13:24] uzrnm: sudo lshw -C network [13:26] lotuspsychje:There is no info about that [13:27] uzrnm: if you have a wifi card, it has a chipset [13:27] uzrnm: brand and type of the wifi card model? [13:27] lotuspsychje:I am fully aware of that, but there is no info for the chipset, using the command you have referred to [13:28] lotuspsychje:Centrino Advanced-N 6200 [13:28] uzrnm: ok and at the bottom, does it mention driver=...? [13:28] integrated wifi or usb?

It is shown by using speedtest (getting 20 Mbps instead of 50 Mbps), but also the regular browsing seems sluggish. However, i get the full bandwidth using LAN. That's why i want to re-install the iwlwifi module, but don't know how to do that. [13:32] ah it is working just not properly i see [13:33] debkad:Yes [13:33] The speedtest behavior is something like there is a capping of some kind applied. [13:33] uzrnm: it was working on the previous kernels? [13:34] debkad:It was working fine before, and i did not make any changes / upgrades / updates [13:35] uzrnm: when you reboot, try pick the advanced from grub menu and try another kernel ( for example 3.19 ) and see if that make it working better [13:36] as a test [13:37] ducasse: http://pastebin.com/UKe4w3Td [13:38] debkad:I will, thanks [13:41] hi I am getting syntax redirection unexpected on this init.d script (Ideally I would like to get rid of the redirection but when I do I get syntax error ) unexpected anyone know what group to go to figure out these problems? http://paste.debian.net/843147/ [13:42] transhuman: what version of ubuntu [13:42] 16.04 [13:42] transhuman: not going to work then [13:42] 16.04 uses systemd and unit files [13:43] Hi, How can I successfully make a bootable uefi image of ubuntu 16.04.1 desktop.

[13:45] ChetManly: no other suggestions, sorry. [13:45] i dont see anything in the package changelog for openssl [13:45] ty [13:45] (for the latest ones, got the ones from earlier last week) [13:45] patcable: look in the ubuntu repo at the version and change og on it [13:45] yeah; that's what I did. I wasnt sure if there were other sources of "we're working on a patch for x" - perhaps launchpad [13:45] patcable: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-3087-2/ [13:46] ah perfect [13:46] patcable: You can also plug the CVE#s into http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/ to see the actual statuses from the security team.

[16:15] why is my shell script being opened by ubuntu software center. the script actually run an executable with LD_LIBRARY_PATH [16:16] kuldeep: i think we'd need more details to be able to help [16:16] ubuntu900: not sure but glad it worked 😺. maybe it's the missing [16:16] PWD := $(shell pwd) [16:16] i expect the script to be executed with executable path from "#!/bin/sh" [16:17] EriC^: ddrescue -d -r3 /dev/sda /dev/sdb log.txt ? [16:17] hello people. there is a issue in the ubuntu terminal: if you have a directory with files named 1-500 and you list them with ls -l you will not get an ordered list, you will get this: https://da.gd/0iwnF why? is there a way to get a properly ordered list? [16:17] kuldeep: so you run ./script and it opens the software center? [16:17] nacc, no when i "double click" it [16:17] acresearch: try ls | sort -n [16:18] when i "double click" it, it open the software center. i expect the script to be executed in shell and the actual program run [16:18] acresearch: you may also want to look at -v (natural sort) [16:19] nacc: ls -v ? [16:19] acresearch: yes [16:19] kuldeep: is +x set? [16:19] kuldeep: is your script marked as executable? [16:19] nacc, .sh afaik been always shell script. how come software center reclaimed it? (due to ".sh" based packages being distributed?) [16:19] kuldeep: extensions have no meaning in linux [16:19] ducasse, nacc yes. in shell when i do "./the-script.sh" it run fine [16:19] nacc: Guest67506 thanks :-) [16:20] acresearch: np [16:20] "#!/bin/sh" isnt respected. [16:20] software center isnt a shell [16:20] can I different proxy settings for different network connections? [16:21] kuldeep, running "./the-script.sh" or clicking the script are 2 different things [16:21] hello [16:21] freelancerbob: http://www.kossboss.com/linux---how-to-clone-a-disk-with-ddrescue---dnu-ddrescue-also-known-as-gddrescue---the-better-ddrescue-tool [16:21] how do i delete my wifi driver [16:21] its WLS3 i want WLAN0 [16:21] you unload the module [16:21] ahn0st: do you mean your wifi device? why do you care what it's named? [16:22] OerHeks, why dont text files being opened by software center then? [16:22] how to fix this bash: /sbin/init: No such file or directory Ubuntu 16.04 [16:22] i see a huge pitfall here. any good reason of opening my shell script on software center === [0xAA] is now known as Zer0Pings [16:22] nacc because when I spoof WLS3 it autmaticaly changes to the original mac, Versurs WLAN0 stays spoofed [16:23] maybe to prevent accedental execution of scripts? [16:23] ahn0st: add the kernel parameter net.ifnames=0 to /etc/default/grub and run update-grub [16:23] akik, yikes. I have no idea how to. [16:24] ahn0st: sudo nano /etc/default/grub [16:24] heh, i just had the exact same thing. [16:24] opens a text editor, nano [16:24] OerHeks, "running "./the-script.sh" or clicking the script are 2 different things" reason please [16:24] akik: for example, my line is now: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0" [16:24] ahn0st: it's just a new way to name the interfaces. nothing breaks if you use the old or the new way [16:24] eh, ahn0st ^ [16:25] why are they different. i expect to execute the script just like binaries are handled [16:25] a script is not a binary! [16:25] FinalX: what does biosdevname=0 do? [16:25] also messes with device names (dell kinda thing) [16:26] Guest62386, but i gave the program that execute it via hash bang "#/bin/sh" [16:26] so, shouldnt i expect it to be executed? [16:26] chmod 700 on it? [16:26] kuldeep, file script.sh what it says ? [16:26] binaries and scripts are not much different in that sense, they all require the execute bit [16:27] akik, okay i have nano opened but where do i add "net.ifnames=0" ? [16:27] Ioangogo, "box0-studio.sh: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable" [16:27] sheh [16:27] ioria, "box0-studio.sh: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable" [16:27] ahn0st: on the line which starts GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT [16:27] How to fix this : bash: /sbin/init: No such file or directory (Ubuntu 16.04) [16:28] a binary is executed by OS's runtime while a script by a interpreter [16:28] mmmmmmm: that comes out of the package systemd-sysv [16:28] kuldeep: i'm 99% sure it's because the gui has a setting like "open with" and it's currently set to ubuntu software center [16:28] mmmmmmm: so you might have to (re)install that [16:28] Okay [16:28] kuldeep, nautilus -> preferences -> behavior -> executable text file ? [16:28] apt-get install --reinstall systemd-sysv [16:28] Guest62386, yes, but when i say "+x" i expect it to be executed on double click [16:28] akik, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0" ? [16:29] ahn0st: that's not the line i said but maybe it could work [16:29] nacc, yes, but problem is it is the default [16:30] kuldeep, check above my last msg, and try xdg-open script.sh [16:30] kuldeep: i don't know why anyone would try to execute a shell script like this, but that's besides the point, i think [16:30] akik, lol sorry i see it. it has = "quiet splash" [16:30] nacc, i would, i made it executable, now i want to execute it via double click. [16:31] ahn0st: those two words control what is shown on the screen when linux boots [16:31] that is fine if someone say that it could introduce security problem. but instead of shell script one can actually do that with a binary executable [16:31] kuldeep: i don't think anyone is saying security problem [16:31] kuldeep: only you have said that so far [16:31] akik, so how does this help the mac address stay spoofed? [16:32] @FinalX it is working, thy [16:32] *thx [16:32] ahn0st: don't know anything about spoofing but it'll bring back the wlan0 device name [16:33] kuldeep: in my case, my default application for shell script is 'vim' (well, gvim) [16:33] nacc, in my case it is geany (editor) [16:33] zot5 === zot is now known as zot5 [16:33] akik, how did one obatain such knowledge? [16:33] kuldeep: and you're saying it opens software center instead of geany? [16:34] ahn0st: reading, browsing, searching the internet [16:34] nacc, in Arch, it open in Geany, on my brother [x]ubuntu, it open in software center. [16:34] nacc, sorry for the confusion [16:34] kuldeep, not using nautilus then.... [16:35] akik, $ sudo macchanger -s wlan0 [ERROR] Set device name: No such device [16:35] akik, must one reboot? [16:36] ahn0st: I also explained to you how to revert this interface naming behaviour in he #lubuntu channel [16:36] ioria, i have nautilus installed to, (on Arch) it open in Geany [16:36] kuldeep, on xubuntu i mean [16:36] (if that can help) [16:36] ahn0st: and yes one must reboot, for kernel optoins to take effect [16:36] genii, just read it [16:37] ok brb, thanks guys. [16:37] kuldeep, xubuntu uses thunar iirc [16:37] ioria, yes [16:38] Hi all! [16:38] kuldeep, don't remember the setting for double-click on thunar ... but you can make another .sh for test and see how it opens [16:39] ioria, you mean "edit" -> custom action ? [16:40] kuldeep, as i said , i don't remember the setting on thunar :þ [16:43] I'm having some serious issues installing Ubuntu 16.04 from liveUSB, right then I'm typing the ubuntu installer randomly stops reading from my keyboard, if I move to another window it input the text correctly again [16:43] is this ACPCI related or something? [16:44] It's quite impossible to choose a password then this happens [16:44] or even using the terminal [16:45] ky [16:45] hello [16:45] linux_, hi there penguin [16:45] okay the device is back to wlan0, but the mac address changes back automatically === precise|AFK is now known as precise [16:48] thanks ioria nacc OerHeks ducasse . seems like im just expecting that is not possible or not the default setting. [16:49] kuldeep, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=194464 [16:49] but i still think, clicking a shell script which has executable marked should be executed [16:49] hi, i just installed ubuntu a few days ago [16:50] can someone explain to me the procedure for playing games on steam [16:50] on ubuntu? === macnibblet is now known as mac_nibblet [16:50] ubuntunewbie, how do you mean? [16:50] what do i need to do to make sure steam and the games work? [16:50] kuldeep, it can be done, but depends on your filemanager [16:51] i read some stuff and encountered people having problems [16:51] ubuntunewbie, you can download games right as you would with windows, but you would of course be limited to games that is available for Linux [16:51] ioria, something that i expected by default need a workaround ..... :P [16:52] Zteam: and what games are these? [16:52] kuldeep, you can read why in the link i posted [16:52] Zteam: i know that, but i am talking about the drivers [16:52] ioria, hum, looking for the specific reason. thanks for the link [16:52] is it only needed to select the proprietary driver in the additional drivers program? [16:53] ubuntunewbie, you need to get the official driver for video card (please be a little more specific) [16:53] Hello friends!! [16:53] kuldeep, what version of thunar your bro is running ?

[17:19] Zteam: what protection do they used/ [17:19] nicomachus, personally I think using hooks is the lame thing to do, but I'm not really pro gamer either [17:20] wadadli, protection for what? do you mean anti-cheat or copy proections or what? :-) [17:20] \exit [17:20] Zteam: anti-cheat [17:21] Hello.

[17:32] wadadli: To be honest I don't know what happened. I don't remember which update I did. I just was watching movie yesterday, I slept and then It's with this problem. [17:33] wadadli: how can I update my kernel? Maybe is this. [17:35] nicomachus, sure, basically I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 on a newly created ubuntu live USB, my keyboard is connected via the PS/2 port, randomly ubuntu stops reading from the keyboard for a few minutes or seconds and then functions normally, this results in that if I attempt to write my password in tthe installer password, it may become invalid, and if try to use the terminal then I can't type undisturbed there either [17:36] nicomachus, I was having some acpci related issues before (it refused to wake up from sleep) so I guess I just should try more acpci related boot option as well [17:38] why does Ubuntu say Enter new unix passowrd....

[17:51] simbaclaws: We can help you get Ubuntu booting via USB on the laptop, but this channel can't really help you with installing Windows. Try ##windows for that. [17:52] I can't the hardware doesn't allow me to [17:52] nicomachus, sudo dmesg | tail doesn't tell me anything interesting [17:52] I can only boot a ubuntu usb [17:52] Zteam: paste it to paste.ubuntu.com and link here [17:52] else I would get a windows boot manager failure telling me the usb is corrupt while it does start on another system [17:53] simbaclaws: that really sounds like you need the help of the ##windows channel guys. [17:53] nicomachus, nor does sudo dmesg | grep PS/2 or sudo dmesg | grep keyboard either [17:53] actually all I have is ubuntu :P [17:54] nicomachus, well, then I have to install hexchat and fighting with that keyboard issue yet again :-( [17:54] simbaclaws: but ubuntu is not the issue here. your issue is the windows bootloader and how to get a windows usb [17:54] Zteam: why do you have to install hexchat? [17:54] nicomachus, I'm using this irc client on a another computer [17:55] my problem is that the hardware that has windows 8 installed doesn't allow for other windows usb's to install it's operating system on top of it. I can only boot ubuntu [17:55] any windows usb doesn't boot [17:55] Zteam: just paste it on the system you're working on, then type the url into here. it'll be like 10 digits at the end of paste.ubuntu.com [17:55] even though they work on other systems [17:55] nicomachus, you are right I don't have too, my bad :-) [17:55] nicomachus, I thinked wrong :p [17:57] I'll go to the windows channel but I doubt they'll be able to help me out [17:57] but ok [17:57] Zteam: or you can use pastebinit and skip the web browser part [17:58] simbaclaws: it sounds like you're trying to use ubuntu to hack around the problem instead of fixing the problem. but the hack-a-round probably won't even work [18:00] I generally love Linux, but it can be a horrendous pain when something stops working.

And even Google wasn't my best friend in this situation [18:19] deadshot: load a live usb ubuntu. then use gparted to change the partition layout [18:19] can't i do it on current installed ubuntu [18:19] by installing gparted [18:19] ? [18:19] deadshot: First, just to get terminology straight, what you want to do is add another partition to your drive. It's only windows where partitions are called "drives", and it causes a lot of confusion. In the *NIX world a drive is a physical device which can contain one or more partitions. [18:19] you can't resize a partition that is in use, hence the need to boot a live cd [18:19] yes it's possible, but I think a live usb will work quicker [18:19] deadshot: you cant change the disk while you are using that disk [18:20] oh my bad :) [18:20] Ok thanks, i will go on live cd [18:20] :) [18:21] @k1l_: what do you mean by !bcm43xx? === gammastorm is now known as tokmaster78 [18:22] saf: its a command to let the bot (ubottu) display some information [18:22] thank you!

[19:37] i am against them [19:37] it will solve your probler, by the way [19:37] what is wrong with it? [19:37] Keydns: when you need the services of the thief take him down from the gallows! [19:37] i feel unsecure about it [19:38] sruli i need a private one as well my dad says [19:38] i figured out that i m looking for something like /dev/sbd4, but I still cant access it via jabref. it s already mounted [19:38] will, you need a private tool, I suppose) [19:38] *well [19:39] i would use some php correct? [19:39] solved it [19:40] ko thanks bye [19:40] sruli: afaict, Keydns is a troll [19:40] comes on, asks the same question, leaves [19:40] kiddos [19:40] no context, no actual intention of doing something [19:41] nacc, thanks [19:41] thanks [19:41] "transffering text files via p2p or some kind of database" is a trollish question [19:41] don't even understand what it means [19:41] anyways ... :) === prince is now known as Guest3911 [19:42] just a nooby question) [19:49] exit [19:54] hello, anyone sucessfully install adobe flash player, into opera and google chrome ? i proceeded via apt but no sucess [19:54] chrome got flashplayer already. [19:54] what of Opera? [19:55] visit something like adome.com/flash (dont remember exactly), it will suggest you to install flash. [19:55] afidegnum, chrome has flashplayer already and for opera or firefox, install flashplugin-nonfree [19:55] but soon they will stop supporting flash I heard [19:55] maybe opera wants pepperflash, that downloads chrome and rips the flashplayer. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser [19:56] let me try that again [19:57] * and restart your opera browser, ofcourse [19:57] :) [19:57] is that me or is it turning the screen off on my laptop like after 2 minutes of inactivity? Also the locked user screen is different after updates that came like week ago? ubuntu 16.04 [19:58] 15 seconds and turning off screen [19:58] when you lock user [19:59] is there any way to change that? [20:00] matejko, depends what desktop, sounds like monitor or energy settings to me [20:01] i need help with booting [20:01] ubuntu is stuck forever at the boot screen since i installed gnome shell [20:01] and selected gdm at the x screen that popped [20:02] gnome [20:03] matjko ? [20:03] Potatoboi happened to me... clean install helped [20:03] yep [20:03] but i really dont want to wipe my entire system [20:03] i just want to reinstall lightdm [20:03] and fix it [20:04] i am logged on a livecd [20:04] sorry, Im noob user :/ [20:05] Potatoboi: Chroot into your system and run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm" and select lightdm when asked what display manager to use. [20:05] a [20:06] how do you update ssh packages? [20:06] Jordan_U alright [20:06] heigh hough [20:06] Potatoboi: If you need help chrooting in feel free to ask. [20:06] it is asking to select either to select lightdm or gdm3 [20:06] i`m chrooted in my system already [20:07] selected lightdm [20:07] Potatoboi: Choose lightdm. That should at least get you a working system, and we can figure out how to get GDM3 working properly after that if you want. [20:07] alright [20:07] will reboot === Wally__ is now known as Guest3130 [20:08] something really strange is happening. I am running 16.04.1 vanilla insta;;. All of a sudden, my mouse and keyboard don't work anymore. I can't get on to the system at ALL with the installed version. So IO am on DVDBoot, trying to resolve this. Even under DVDBoot, after somewhere between 1 and 10 minutes, the keyboard and mouse lockup. What t [20:08] he holy &(^%^$%&(^$&^ id going on? [20:10] curlyears: is it a laptop or desktop? if the former does it have an internal keyboard that does work? [20:10] Jordan_U [20:10] it worked [20:11] i'm currently on my system now [20:11] is anyone familiar with mongoDB data at rest? [20:12] curlyears: Please pastebin the output of "dmesg", preferably after the keyboard or mouse has stopped working. (You probably want to install openssh-server so you can still interact with the machine without a keyboard or mouse, using another computer / phone). [20:12] The problem started when I was creating a "Firefox account" as per a push from mozilla. I clicked into Thunderbiird to cheeck for the verification email, and Thunderbord came up, and then I couldn't do anything,. I rebooted, and tried to go to the ubuntu support pages, and it died again. It has also died several times under Live Bott [20:12] Jordan_U: No can do. I have no access to a second computer, and I don't use a smartphone. [20:13] Oh, byw, the moouse isn't toally dead. When I move it, the cursor moves, it just won't accept any clicks [20:13] btw, too [20:15] curlyears: usb devices? [20:16] when you're running under LiveBoot, who are you logged in as, defauklt, and how do you find the password fopr that login, if you wanty to login remote like Jordan_U just suggested to me? [20:16] nacc: my keyboard and mouse are USB, if that's what you're asking? [20:16] curlyears: yeah, didn't you report some issues with this before? [20:16] i'm seeing it in my irc logs :) === otto is now known as subterfugium [20:17] curlyears: the live user is ubuntu, the password is blank. but when you want to remote login to your system then you need the user and password of that system [20:17] nacc: one time a USB port just stopped working completely. That one USB port is still totally dead [20:17] curlyears: how do you know there aren't more hw faults? [20:17] curlyears: OK. Please pastebin the /var/log/syslog from the installed system, and in addition please run "dmesg --follow > /mnt/dmesg.log" (where /mnt/dmesg.log is any path that you will persist and you can then pastebin at next boot). [20:18] k1l_: so how can I do a emote login to view dmesg? [20:18] s/you will persist/will persist/ [20:18] curlyears, same mobo which gave you so much hdd and usb troubles? [20:18] curlyears: i thought ##hardware's recommendation was to replace the PS and maybe mobo? [20:18] curlyears: mount the hdd from that system and look into /var/log/ there [20:18] how do you creat a pathlist that will persist through a reboot? [20:19] curlyears: pathlist? [20:19] curlyears: Mount either your internal drive or a USB drive and provide a path that's within that mount. [20:19] nacc: I did replace the PSU, and the computer has been runnning without any faults for several months now [20:19] you can watch the voltage levels of your psu with lm-sensors or in bios [20:20] curlyears: I just mean that you can't simply do "dmesg --follow ~/Desktop/notgonnapersist.log" because that will only save to RAM and be gone when you reboot. [20:20] hi am getting page falut for amd on start anyone know how to fix this [20:20] lm-sensorts not found [20:21] is there any way to printscreen lockscreen without running VM? [20:21] this might sound funny but if my file has 5000 lines is there a bash method to copy what's inside my file again inside my file until it is 8GB? [20:21] matejko, http://www.howtogeek.com/113267/how-to-take-screenshots-of-the-windows-logon-screen-2-geeky-tricks/ [20:22] oops, windows link [20:22] I have found an old monitor, and am able to plug it in, however I am getting "Signal Over Range" on it, and then the screen turns off. [20:22] https://itsfoss.com/screenshot-login-screen-ubuntu-linux/ matejko [20:23] Anthaas, incompatible refresh rate [20:23] c^ any possible solution, besides new monitor? [20:24] thx :) [20:24] Anthaas, which bootloader? [20:24] Grub? [20:24] Antaas: do you know what SORT of monitor it is? (EGA< VGA< SVGA)? [20:25] c^ Uhh, yeah, standard. This is my only OS on this machine [20:25] VGA [20:25] Go to the GRUB options tab [20:25] , tick the out-of-range option [20:25] , apply, [20:25] reboot [20:25] "Grub options tab"? [20:25] this is very disheartening. I am just about to start learning to use thew software to use m y 3Dprinter, and once again, my computer develops some oddball problem no one understands [20:25] Not sure, just pulled it from askubuntu [20:25] Maybe the grub menu on boot? [20:26] Or in settings somewhere [20:26] Anthaas source: http://askubuntu.com/questions/189566/input-signal-out-of-range-change-settings-to-1600-x-900 [20:26] the end suggests installing gpu drivers again [20:27] Probably not worth the hassle. [20:27] I have two modern monitors which work perfectly fine, and this ancient one that doesn't. [20:27] I'd agree [20:28] I hate using mismatching monitors personally === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo [20:30] is anyone familiar with mongoDB encryption at rest? [20:31] damn it, from L:iveBoot, when I try to mount /dev/sda (my 250GB SSD) it says /dev/sda or is busy. I had just created the moutnpoint as /to, [20:32] curlyears: You don't mount a drive like /dev/sda, you figure out what partition on the drive (sda1, sda2, etc) you actually want to mount, and mount that. [20:32] I have an older 17" LCD monitor that I am not using, but I am holding on to it, to use with my Raspberry Pi 3, once I get that up and running [20:32] thanks Jordan_U [20:33] curlyears: You're welcome. [20:35] what the hell does this mean? I founf it in my dmeag (three times, one right after thee other): usb 5-1: current rate 0 is different from the runtime rate 44100 [20:36] when I did sudo mount /dev/sda2 /tom it recommended I look for a problem under dmesgm, which is when I found that USB error [20:36] also mount says size or type is wrong Do I need to go do a man mount? [20:36] curlyears: i beleive that is a sound message [20:37] \nacc: interesting. I just plugged some USB speakers in yesterday. They are working. A buddy over in #reprap sent them to me. [20:38] nacc: but why would the error be logged three times, one immediatel;y after the other? [20:38] curlyears: i don't know [20:38] samwe tinmestamp on all three [20:39] weird. Ah, well, as much of a headache as all this is, I'd still rather do this than submit to Microsoft Tyrrany === TheRedQueen is now known as Drone` [20:43] OK...dmesg has 6 of these, one after the other: EXT4-fs (sda2): unable to read superblock [20:43] linux spoof mac address reverts back to default, need help [20:43] curlyears: is that the dmesg from the internal disk? or from the usb live system? [20:45] curlyears: Please pastebin the output of "sudo blkid" so that we can help you run the correct mount command. Also note that this does appear to be a hardware problem. I'm just hoping that the output of dmesg will give some insight into how your hardware is failing. [20:46] curlyears: and do i understand right, that you plugged in usb speakers and since then have issues with usb mouse and keyboard? [20:47] k1l-: well, sortof. I plugged the USB speakers in a day or so ago. Everything worked fine until this morning. [20:48] i am looking for a program for transffering text files via p2p or some kind of database publically and privately [20:49] Keydns: you have been provided help on this a few times in the channel. You need to stay and listen to the responses. [20:49] i was just going to reboot [20:50] Keydns: then reboot and *then* ask your question [20:50] it makes no sense to ask and then leave over and over [20:50] ok i understand [20:50] i shall return shortly [20:50] lol [20:51] rats. I'm trying to apt-get install pastebinit, and it has been sitting at 0% for two minutes now... [20:51] ;p [20:52] rats. I'm trying to apt-get install pastebinit, and it has been sitting at 0% for two minutes now... [20:52] rats. I'm trying to apt-get install pastebinit, and it has been sitting at 0% for two minutes now... [20:52] ; [20:52] :9 [20:53] curlyears: installing on a live system could be an issue. just attach "| nc termbin.com 9999" to the command to pastebin stuff [20:56] hi, anyone know the answer to my question? [20:58] damn. [20:58] Keydns, is ftp an option? [20:58] file transfer protocol? [20:59] Keydns, yeap, ftp-server [20:59] if you can access it fromm macc and windwos theen yes [20:59] Keydns: what about dropbox, googledrive, nextcloud or such? [20:59] looking for something terminal based on the ubuntu side [20:59] Keydns: dropbox has a cli [21:00] when I try to run sudo blkinit I get: blkinit not found, then on the next line, it prompts to try using netcat, which requires all sorts of argumebts, and says it's a bsd tool [21:00] Keydns: a webserver, sftp server. there are a lot of ways to share stuff [21:01] what is php? [21:01] curlyears: its not blkinit [21:01] curlyears: sudo blkid | nc termbin.com 9999" [21:03] can i use php to transfer files using putty on the other computer over the internet? [21:04] php using putty? that doesnt sound right. [21:04] !php | ubottu [21:04] nacc: PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. A command-line only version can be installed in Ubuntu with the "php5-cli" package. See also !lamp for integrated server PHP. The Ubuntu server PHP5 guide is found at https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/php5.html [21:04] o, it was ssh [21:04] k1l_ [21:04] Keydns: if you control both sides then just use "scp" or "sftp". both come with the ssh server [21:04] Keydns: i feel like you're asking very strange questions that seem unrelated to each other [21:05] i must want to know a lot of ddifferent things [21:05] Keydns: perhaps start over with what specifically you are trying to achieve (and not how you think you should achieve it) [21:05] now I can't copy/paste from term to here. I highlight the desired text, roght click the mouse, then select copy. Switch to here, place the cursor in the input box, and right click, then select paste, and noting happens [21:05] Keydns: well, this is a support channel, not a discussion channel [21:06] well i have two objectives on my new computer right now.. downloading a lot of text files to read and organize.. and to shre files between some of my dad, his friends and my brother [21:06] Keydns: we focus on specific technical ubuntu issues in this channel. if you need the world explained better join the #ubuntu-offtopic channel [21:06] http://termbin.com/taxr [21:06] I hand copied that [21:06] is there a like ubuntu packages channel? [21:10] \? [21:11] Keydns: no [21:11] maybe take a look at btsync or syncthing [21:12] curlyears: try your middle mouse button, it'll change your life ;) [21:13] ppf: when I click the middle mouse button (the scroll wheel) Firefox pops up a box asking me if I really want to leave this page [21:14] well you need to click on something that accepts input [21:15] if I come into any more money, I am scrapping this damned m otherboard and gtting a newer, better one. This thing has cost me so muych time and energy, I hate it [21:15] what's the issue? [21:15] ppf: for copy/paste, that ios usually the right mouse bvutton, which should pop up a menu with various choices, including copy and paste [21:16] guys, I have an issue (maybe) .. if I click on link on this chat, it open firefox new window with my homepage... is it bug or feature? [21:16] it wont open that link [21:16] what chat client are you using [21:16] HexChat === Sparklyballs is now known as fukucanada [21:16] ppf: I need to mount a partition from my system, SSD, so I can have certain system commands 9output copies of certain logs, since I am under Live Boot, and need to pass thoswe logs to k1l- and others [21:17] that shouldnt be happening [21:17] matejko: hmm, which ubuntu? which desktop? [21:17] i use hexchat [21:17] feature [21:17] 16.04 64bit gnome? === fukucanada is now known as Sparklyballs [21:17] curlyears: on linux DEs there are two clipboards (well, three, but noone uses the third). PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD. CLIPBOARD is what you feed with right click+copy, ctrl+c and the like. [21:18] matejko: on the menu->settings -> command for urls. what is the command there? [21:18] ppf: oooooookayyyyyyy [21:18] and whatever you highlight with your mouse goes into PRIMARY, and you can paste it with a middle mouse click [21:18] * RLShiftyDoggit laughs Sparkalyballs [21:19] "Open Link in a new Firefox Window !firefox -new-window %s " [21:19] now, what's the problem with your mount? === Guest5832 is now known as Jakey3 [21:19] matejko: that is correct. so it seems like its a firefox issue [21:20] how would i switch off a desktop screen in a cron job [21:20] ? [21:20] ppf: I see. I wonder why all of a suddent, I am having to paste with center button clikc as opposed to the right click I have been using for literally years? [21:20] because it will change your life ;) [21:20] Jakey3: look up it's process number in ps -alx, then kill -9 [21:20] k1l_: yeah it might be.. I manually installed firefox 50 (dont know how) but it has lot of bugs so I purged it and installed canonical firefox49 and I think the paths of firefox50 is still there [21:21] curlyears: ubuntu got 2 different clipboards. seems like you copied it to the middle-mouse-clipboard. or your irc client ony accepts that clipboard [21:21] matejko: uh, yeah, that is some important info [21:21] Jakey3: maybe with xscreensaver? [21:22] k1l-: yeah, I get the two clipboard things, but right clicking is what I was using, then in the middle of tyhis IRC session, ity cvhanged, without any input from me. How? [21:22] lol, is there any way to fix it? when I type whereis firefox in terminal it give me this: firefox: /usr/bin/firefox /usr/lib/firefox /etc/firefox /usr/share/man/man1/firefox.1.gz is that correct? [21:22] Jakey3: use xset [21:22] curlyears: i really dont know what you are doing to your systems all the time, really. [21:23] k1l_, does xset need to run as sudo [21:23] Jakey3: I can tell you this. Do what ANYONE other than me tells you to do, because they all know infinitely more than i do [21:23] Jakey3: no [21:23] so it would simply run in a cron job [21:24] Ya quelqun ? [21:24] k1l-: I am sitting here in IRC, or reading and responding to email, almost SALL the time (ropughly 6-78 hours a day. Once I gget the last bit of hardware I need for my 3D printer, I'll likely be doing that all day instead= [21:24] Jakey3: i have to ask, why exactly do you need to turn off your screen in a cronjob? [21:24] 6-8 [21:24] curlyears: what's the actual problem you're trying to solve? [21:24] its a screen connect to a raspberry pi in a public location [21:24] is there someone here ? [21:24] why not run screensaver [21:25] so at 22.00 we want to switch off the screen [21:25] to conserve energy [21:25] physically? or send it to standby? [21:25] stanby [21:25] k1l: is there any way to fix it? [21:25] nontheless, try xset or xscreensaver [21:26] xset can go directly in the cron [21:26] ? [21:26] matejko: can you show a "which firefox | nc termbin.com 9999" [21:26] sure [21:27] k1l_: http://termbin.com/9w4u [21:27] ppf: all of a suddent, lst night, my system started dumping me into a situation where it would accept no input from either the mouse or thwe terminal. Rebooting brought it back, but after 1 to 19 minnutes or so of operation, it would do it again. So I am booted up in Live DVD, trying to find a solution to that, and running into all sorts of weir [21:27] k1l_: http://termbin.com/rmio [21:27] d issues now. Someone on here asked me to save some information from a few log files, and pastebin them, but to do that, I have to knnow what the mount point for a workable parition on my SSD is. And the comans for tyhat aren't working, at least, not for me. I type them (or copy/paste them) and they claim " not available, or nnot [21:27] found [21:27] matejko: "ls -al /usr/bin/firefox | nc termbin.com 9999" [21:28] the mouse moves the cursor, but no button clicks are accepted, and n o response from the keyboard at all [21:28] hello [21:28] k1l_: directory or file is missing [21:28] the LED in the mouse stays lit, so it isn't a power issue [21:28] curlyears: you sure your usb controller is alright? [21:28] How's Ubuntu holding up? [21:29] tried a different keyboard? [21:29] matejko: sudo apt purge firefox. then sudo apt install firefox [21:29] Anything new to tempt me away from Mint? [21:29] you said something about a usb error message before [21:29] curlyears, you can use the disk uility to mount the main partition [21:29] k1l_: sorry I copied it with " " [21:29] k1l_: http://termbin.com/w2k9 [21:29] so i strongly suspect its botched [21:30] or do the inputs work on the live system? [21:31] Queenslayer: how is mint not ubuntu? [21:31] matejko: could be worth renaming ".mozilla/firefox" to ".mozilla/firefox_old" and then restart firefox [21:31] k1l_: ok, I will try that, thx [21:31] Queenslayer: its your choice which distro you use. [21:31] curlyears: if the inputs are out in the live system as well then it's probably a hardware issue [21:32] probably not much we can do then [21:32] ppf: good question [21:32] Better standard interface [21:32] you meen the DE/the WM? [21:33] mint has its own issues. [21:33] curlyears: one thing that helped me in the past with a flakey usb controller (which wasn't a hardware defect but actually a kernel problem): [21:33] disconnect the power for 10 minutes [21:33] Queenslayer: ubuntu offers mate and cinnamon besides a lot of other desktops in their repos. there are even preinstalled isos for mate. [21:34] k1l_: never checked it out [21:34] I like the way Mint have packaged their OS [21:34] and there it is. The troll succeeds and for the next fifteen minutes the channnel is just noise [21:35] Queenslayer: ok. if you dont have a technical ubuntu support issue then please keep this channel clear for ubuntu support. [21:36] \ppf: how do I determine that? There is a new message in syslog, which nacc tells me is audio rtelated, complaining about ppf: OK, I'lll try that. Hope it works,. because Live Booting is really SLOW [21:37] k1l_: didnt work [21:37] k1l_: still opening homepage instead of link [21:37] not syslog, dmesg, but it was in my last boot, and dmesg says nothing new has been logged yet [21:38] matejko: strange. renaming that folder would have erased all user settings [21:38] matejko: what is the .link? paste it in here [21:38] matejko: do you have some special network setup? like proxy or vpn? [21:39] :v [21:39] k1l_: it did and I dint do backup.. nvm [21:40] curlyears: all links posted to this chat.. for example: http://termbin.com/9w4u [21:40] make sure firefox itself does not claim to be standard browser [21:41] matejko: well, that one does obnly go to a home page directory, but all the others that have been posted in the past hour work for me [21:41] + maybe gnome needs a logout/login to take effect [21:42] curlyears: even https://www.google.com wont open me a google [21:42] I will try reboot [21:42] brb [21:42] matejko: do you use any sort of proxy or vpn? [21:44] yeah, it works for me, so you definitely have a problem. Have you tried shutting firefox down and restarting it? [21:45] i guess he changed stuff on his network like using a proxy or changing the nameserver. [21:46] k1l_: no I am not using proxy nor VPN [21:47] k1l_: but if I click on link with right mouse button and choose "Open link in new Firefox window" it will open the link normally [21:47] matejko: again I ask, havwe you tried restarting firefox? === denny is now known as Guest28006 [21:48] curlyears: yes dozen of times, even restarting PC [21:49] k1l_: when you type whereis firefox to terminal, what you get? [21:50] k1l_: /usr/bin/firefox /usr/lib/firefox /etc/firefox /usr/share/man/man1/firefox.1.gz is this ok? [21:51] hi [21:52] matejko: what's the issue? clicking a link won't do anything? [21:52] ppf: clicking a link will open firefox homepage instead of link [21:52] anywhere? [21:53] how much can lightdm suck that I'am not able to get it running for simple logon into awesome-wm, while startx just works fine [21:53] never seen bigger bunch of crap than this [21:53] ppf: from HexChat [21:53] lightdm, pls dieeee. [21:53] cesm: so, what have you tried so far? [21:54] ppf: what should I try? [21:54] so you've tried nothing and are all out of ideas? [21:54] ppf: setting .dmrc, setting user-session inside of /etc/lightdm/.... [21:54] debugging logfiles, strace... [21:54] and what's the symptom? [21:54] black screen [21:54] after logging in [21:56] ppf: do you have firefox installed? [21:56] matejko: no i'm using chrome [21:56] cesm: can you paste your dmrc [21:57] [Desktop] [21:57] Session=awesome [21:57] thats it [21:57] WTH did Ubuntu do to MySQL (MariaDB)? I've had to create a non-root user account and grant all privileges, but that still doesn't work. I can only connect to MySQL using 'mysql' command [21:58] skinux, well .. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes#MySQL_5.7 [21:58] cesm: what's in /etc/lightdm? [21:59] hi all [21:59] hi [21:59] so im running cinnamon WM but somethign is off. for example my MIN MAX AND CLOSE buttons are little dots [21:59] ppf: at the moment just this: [21:59] matejko: what did you do to your firefox? built in from source? [21:59] what am i missing [21:59] /etc/lightdm/lightdm-webkit-greeter.conf [21:59] /etc/lightdm/users.conf [22:00] yy [22:00] how does HexChat launch it? [22:00] darkdrgn2k, the obvious: do you run a theme on top of that? [22:00] ppf: dont understand the question [22:00] no stock install [22:00] im wondering if im missing some packages.. [22:01] ppf: in settings - URL something: "Open Link in a new Firefox Window: !firefox -new-window %s" [22:01] sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt full-upgrade [22:02] ppf: URL handlers [22:02] why are they not able to write some documentation about such a beast of thing which claims to save the world and does everything better than all others [22:02] matejko: does new-window take arguments? [22:02] cesm: because usually it just works [22:03] ppf: dont know [22:03] launch it on the terminal [22:03] you mean lightdm? [22:03] cesm: did you try choosing the session in lightdm? [22:03] cesm: no that was for matejko [22:03] i get no option to chose that [22:04] i mean on the login screen [22:04] you can click the circle/ubuntu icon next to the username (i think that's where it is) [22:04] not for me [22:05] anywhere else on the screen [22:05] ppf: "firefox -new-window" opens new window if you were asking about that [22:05] for some guy yesterday it was in the top bar i think? [22:05] matejko: i meant with an url [22:05] *a [22:06] ppf: yep it is opening [22:06] ppf: a page [22:06] just no fucking documentation [22:06] these folks are a joke [22:06] if I have a cronjob that runs and i need other users on the system to be able to make changse [22:06] will uninstall this shit now [22:06] where should I store the files? [22:06] stan_man_can: /etc/cron.d probably [22:07] but beware, that's an enormous security risk === Biokee is now known as Guest37082 [22:07] ppf, a better place would be where? [22:07] it's a series of PHP scripts that are scheduled [22:07] stan_man_can, actually, each user could have their own contrab file with: crontab -e [22:07] might be better to put a launcher script in /etc/cron.d that drops privileges, and then launches the editable script [22:08] Surendil, this is one batch of files though that everyone needs to edit [22:08] the scheduling is fine [22:08] What's an alternative to Skype for calling landlines from Ubuntu? Ekiga has pretty bad reviews in the software center. [22:08] just not sure of where i should physically put the files [22:08] Surendil: not if they need to synchronize them [22:08] it's not a huge collaboration either it's just someone needs to modify them every now and then [22:08] right now they're in my home dir but that doesn't really work for everyone else [22:08] stan_man_can: in case of doupt, put things in /opt :) [22:08] although I guess i could chmod 777 the directory in my home and symlink it to their homes? [22:09] how to remove directory in terminal? [22:09] rm -rf DIRECTORYU [22:09] <\9> matejko: rmdir, if it's empty [22:09] matrm -rf [22:09] stan_man: I would build the project such that it only allows specific user numbes to make changes to the database or code. Keep the allowed user numbers in an encrypted file, and write a small app to read, write and edit that fiel, that onlly YOUO can use.\ [22:09] matejko: use with caution [22:10] <\9> matejko: rm -rf, if it's not (very dangerous) [22:10] thx [22:10] curlyears, that's a joke right? sarcasm is hard to see [22:10] stan_man_can: why would I joke about that? I was serious [22:10] matejko, but for real rm -rf is super dangerous so please be super careful, once you delete it's gone [22:10] it's a minor programming task, at most [22:11] the question is literally [22:11] "where should i keep a file that everyone needs to be able to edit" [22:11] https://www.google.com [22:11] not, how should I implement a custom ACL or anything [22:12] There is a funny folder called /opt/ [22:12] so I purged firefox, removed every directory that was in "whereis firefox" installed firefox again and it still doesnt open a link from HexChat [22:12] stan_man_can: in a secure locatinoibn the file system, oprotected by what I described to you earlier. That is a semi-secure setup, allowuing the opeople who need to to access it, without making it available to any punk whohappens to find their way into your system. SECURITY [22:12] The only thing that page tells me is that blank passwords no longer work. I'm not using a blank password. [22:12] OerHeks: lol [22:12] <\9> "keep allowed user numbers in an encrypted file" [22:12] skinux, no, you missed the part: Some configuration directives have been changed or deprecated [22:12] <\9> it's called user groups [22:13] stan_man_can: you obviously have no appreciation of basic system security measures [22:13] obviously not [22:13] i think i'm just going to sudo chmod -R 777 / to make life easier [22:13] skinux, without proper errorlog it is guessing [22:14] well, yeah, you could use groups. That would be an implied application of my desription, I just haven't had to administer a publicly available system in so long I forgot about groups. I am tghe ONLY user of my ysstem [22:14] stan_man_can: dont do that [22:14] stan_man_can: pardon my directness, but THAT is sheer stupidity [22:14] stan_man_can, put it all by itself on a usb drive on a network server everyone can access [22:15] <\9> i have this slight feeling that he was sarcastics [22:15] \9 +1 [22:15] sarcasm not allowed on this channel, go awsay :p [22:15] no....seriously...everyone can map that folder to their home directory, and then access the file as needed [22:16] not sure it would jive with IT if i hand them a flash drive and tell them to go plug it into one of the racks in our datacenter [22:16] seriously, if you make it thaty simple, what happens if two people are trying to update and change the code at the same time? You need a checkin and checkout system to protecct against race conditions between users [22:17] that will never happen [22:17] curlyears, what happens if he puts it in the normal folder structure and two people try to access it at the same time? At least on a samba server it is 'removed' from the OS [22:17] how can you KNOW that, stan_man_can? [22:18] well [22:18] <\9> curlyears: that sounds incredibly unrealistic [22:18] the file gets updated randomly once, maybe twice a year [22:18] <\9> assuming that these users aren't running I/O-intensive jobs [22:18] there's only 3 of us who have access to the server and we all work on the same team [22:18] fine. risk your program and related data. Not my lookout [22:19] the only reason we all need access is because more often than not we only have one user available to update it at a time [22:19] i know [22:20] <\9> curlyears: it's somewhat more likely that an asteroid will hit earth during the next second and wipe out all life, than a I/O race condition to happen in a simple group share scenario [22:20] \9 thank you [22:21] i'm all for doing things properly but there's a time and place for everything [22:21] OK, I just updated to Xenial (from Trusty). This came with a new version of Totem, with a new interface. I kinda hate it - there's a bar with the filename that is totally useless, and the most useful button after play (fit window to video) is gone. Is there a way to get it back? [22:21] stan_man_can, is there a reason you don't just create a three member group and give the group write permission? [22:22] th0r, right now it's in my home directory [22:22] literally all i needed to know was where on the filesystem to move the folder [22:22] just not super familiar on that stuff [22:22] i mean sure you can dump it anywhere but i figured i'd let you guys point me to the right place [22:22] also the player controls literally never disappear. I can't find any configurable options in the GUI... [22:22] stan_man_can: ask your IT staff whatt they think about the issue, I dare you [22:23] <\9> stan_man_can: i don't think any standard defines the proper place to put such a thing [22:23] are comments allowed in systemd .service file? [22:24] stan_man_can: leave it in a folder under your home folder, and set the GID to a special group created for this purpose, IT will have to assign each chosen user to the new group, but that is totally trivial [22:24] pls in HexChat when you press F1, what page is opened? can someone post a link... my firefox is opening homepage [22:24] how do i get out of an application that is running in my erminal so that i see my home directory oncce again? [22:25] Keydns: ctrl+c [22:25] <\9> Keydns: what application is it? [22:25] <\9> matejko: not wise to suggest ctrl+c without knowing context [22:25] I thought thats the command for exiting/canceling [22:26] <\9> it's the command for forcibly interrupting the running process [22:26] sorry about that then [22:26] <\9> or, semi-forcibly anyway [22:26] matejko: on this box, HexChat F1 opens ... http://hexchat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ [22:27] Tex_Nick: thx [22:27] \9: I hope Keydns wont kill me [22:29] nick hps [22:30] NICK [22:30] NICK hps [22:30] HexChat: 2.10.2 ** OS: Linux 4.4.0-38-generic x86_64 ** Distro: Ubuntu "xenial" 16.04 ** CPU: 2 x Intel(R) Pentium(R) CPU 2020M @ 2.40GHz (GenuineIntel) @ 1,20GHz ** RAM: Physical: 3,5GiB, 75,9% free ** Disk: Total: 909,5GiB, 84,8% free ** VGA: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller ** Sound: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH29: ThinkPad EC - ThinkPad Console Audio Control ** Ethernet: Realtek [22:30] Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
