[00:00] <RJ45> because only debian has the latest patch for lshw, and I need it
[00:01] <bazhang> RJ45, using debian packages is not supported, have you looked for a PPA
[00:01] <RJ45> ubuntu repo a shitr
[00:01] <tomreyn> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpdatingADeb describes how to patch a package
[00:02] <RJ45> I have not, I will look for one, then I will probably come back in 10 minutes with the exact same problem
[00:02] <RJ45> brb 10 mins
[00:02] <Beliq> will miss u RJ45
[00:03] <Beliq> u kept the party going
[00:03] <Hertog> Hello.. does anybody know how I can remount / as ro on a live machine ?
[00:04] <RJ45> I tried this ppa  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lshw/02.17-1.1ubuntu3.2/+build/10022526
[00:04] <RJ45> exact same problem, ...whadaya know
[00:04] <Bashing-om> Hertog: At the root terminal ' mount -o rw,remount / ' .
[00:05] <RJ45> Beliq: I'm back babeh
[00:05] <Hertog> Bashing-om: no I want it to be read-only
[00:05] <RJ45> bazhang: ?
[00:05] <tomreyn> RJ45: that's because this package is not built for your verison of ubuntu
[00:05] <RJ45> how lovely
[00:06] <Bashing-om> Hertog: Have you tried replacing rw with ro ?
[00:06] <tomreyn> RJ45: you could try thi sone https://launchpad.net/~dannf/+archive/ubuntu/test
[00:06] <RJ45> anything I can do to sort-of bash this square peg into my tight round hole?~ :3
[00:06] <tomreyn> RJ45: but you could also just provide information on the very patch you say is needed.
[00:07] <RJ45> tomreyn: what sort of info?
[00:07] <tomreyn> well, what does the patch do, where is the source code?
[00:08] <RJ45> hmm, a non-descript totally random .deb from a totally unofficial ppa ..I'LL TAKE IT, thanki tomreyn
[00:08] <tomreyn> RJ45: yes, it's not a good idea.
[00:09] <RJ45> (mindset of ur average windows user, sometimes ignorance is bliss)
[00:09] <NoCode_> So what happens when clutter won't start? This is after I "killall gnome-shell". there's error with clutter mentioned, but clutter has no command to start. Gnome-shell also won't start. I'm stuck restarting the computer.
[00:09] <elky> RJ45: please stop antagonising the people who are trying to assist you.
[00:09] <Hertog> Bashing-om: yes I have
[00:10] <Hertog> Bashing-om: story is.. I have a VPS @ DigitalOcean, but that box is comprimised. And I want to recover data and then reinstall it
[00:10]  * tomreyn would appreciate this, too.
[00:10] <RJ45> elky: lol, are you one of those people who get easily offended, I've heard so much about
[00:10] <RJ45> ??
[00:10] <RJ45> ..it was really a bit of light humour to make the conversation more fun ..really
[00:10] <Hertog> but recovery is virtually impossible because there is a process that continuesly gets respawned with a different file name and that process is taking about 99% of my CPU
[00:11] <Bashing-om> Hertog: .. can you reboot the VPS  into the recovery console and not set rw ?
[00:11] <Hertog> Bashing-om: nope :/
[00:12] <Hertog> from the webinterface I can't boot it to recovery
[00:12] <Hertog> since that is only possible from grub
[00:12] <tomreyn> understood, RJ45. but there are a couple things you should get used to when seeking support here. such as using a different language. i'm notr offended, nor should you be because i wrote this.
[00:12] <RJ45> ..I installed the random prolly_virus.deb btw
[00:12] <RJ45> testing it now
[00:12] <RJ45> :)
[00:14] <Hertog> Bashing-om: and the box is comprimised at such a level that.. it installes some systemd service, and if you delete that one.. on a reboot it reinstalls itself
[00:14] <RJ45> tomreyn: I am primarily a Rizon user, and am considering joining Effnet ..this gives you a clue about my personality, but I understand your point, I'm just not used-to being this 'PC' when I talk
[00:14] <elky> there's PC and there's accusing people of malice, there's a difference and the latter isn't funny in a channel like this.
[00:16] <RJ45> BTW, I just tested virus_lshw.msi.exe.deb ..and to my pleasant surprise the patch works and fixes my problem, YAY! :D
[00:16] <RJ45> thank you for your engagement and support, tomreyn, bazhang, (and was there another user?)
[00:16] <tomreyn> that's a different version, though (with additional patches applied)
[00:17] <tomreyn> good luck with your keeping your system up and running. you will need it. :)
[00:17] <RJ45> really, thank you, I appreciate the help
[00:18] <tomreyn> welcome
[00:18]  * tomreyn off to bed.
[00:18] <Bashing-om> Hertog: Sorry to hear, bad things happen to the best of people. But I do not know what to advise here .
[00:19] <RJ45> oh man, tell me about it.. my main rig is like an old lady that will someday fall down the stairs
[00:19] <RJ45> ..except it runs pretty fast and plays games :P
[00:20] <Hertog> Bashing-om: to be honest.. it's my own damn fault... :/ I didn't install fail2ban, I had root access via SSH enabled (because that's the default that Digital Ocean provides) and 'they' probably bruteforced my root password

[00:39] <timdotrb> Evening, all.
[00:39] <timdotrb> I’m having an issue getting DKIM running with Sendmail.. I think I’m really close, but I’m getting an error when I send an email, “Milter (opendkim): error connecting to filter: Connection refused by localhost”
[00:40] <timdotrb> I’ve opened port 8891 in my firewall, which is the port I specified in the config files, but that doesn’t seem to have helped
[00:43] <foo> Can 16.04 use upstart if I install it?
[00:48] <blacknred0> is there a way to upgrade ubuntu offline ?
[00:48] <Bashing-om> !info upstart xenial
[00:49] <ldumont> Hey guys, is there anything special bout dual booting ubuntu and Windows 10 on two separate disk? I'm installing Ubuntu on a second GPT disk but I keep getting into boot-rescue mode when rebooting.
[00:49] <foo> Bashing-om: thank you, I assume that means it could work – right? It's throwing this error: start: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused - hmph.
[00:54] <victorinox> hola
[00:54] <blacknred0> victorinox: hola
[00:59] <Bashing-om> foo: Well It is in the main repo .. so it should "just work " when installed . Maybe check that all the dependencies are met : http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial-updates/upstart ?? A bunch of them !
[01:00] <nsalogbot> Any suggestion for a calandar that syncs with Google Calandar and works with mate?
[01:00] <foo> Bashing-om: thanks, I imagine apt-get install upstart would catch the dependencies, yeah?
[01:01] <Bashing-om> foo: Well,, it should .. or at least tell you why it could not .
[01:04] <Bashing-om> foo: Do you presently have upstart installed " and if so? how are you starting the upstart session ?
[01:05] <babosa> quit
[01:05] <fishcooker> i tried to remove old kernel when /boot 100%(scarse disk) hit but i've got https://bpaste.net/show/a957a4d9e824 when try the old one to release some space to upgrade to the latest kernel
[01:06] <fishcooker> yes it's only 200MB with automatic security update without kernel blacklist
[01:07] <foo> Bashing-om: yes, and I'm testing with start myproject (where I have /etc/init/myproject.conf defined), which is when it throws that error: start: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused

[01:17] <lordcirth_> !ask | hello
[01:18] <Khar00f> quick question, is there a way to view a list of existin
[01:18] <Khar00f> quick question, anyone has a minute to chat with me regarding permissions?
[01:18] <Khar00f> i'm having issues with smb shares
[01:19] <Khar00f> i believe it's a permission issue
[01:19] <Khar00f> there's something i'm not too clear about regarding the gid's and how i should setup my uid/gid for my folders
[01:20] <hello> ?
[01:21] <Khar00f> i can't seem to access my shares through a win pc and when i login to my server through sftp i can't create any folers/files
[01:21] <Bashing-om> foo: Can you reboot the system and do you have the option of upstart in grub's advanced menu ? and can you start upstart from grub ? If so we can point fingers at how your script is interacting .
[01:21] <Khar00f> hello, what's your issue?
[01:22] <hello> i have a excel file locked
[01:22] <hello> that person is away so now client is asking to crack the code.
[01:24] <hello> @Khar00f
[01:24] <et09_> i have 14.04 and want to upgrade to 16.04
[01:24] <Khar00f> why not contact the person who has the code and ask for it?
[01:24] <et09_> is the path discontinued or something?  can't seem to do it with update-manager
[01:25] <foo> Bashing-om: From my understanding, based off what I've read, systemd is the way to go for 16.04.
[01:25] <Khar00f> @hello i tried looking for that once in the past and couldn't find a solution
[01:25] <Khar00f> sorry bud
[01:26] <hello> ok thankjs
[01:26] <Bashing-om> foo: With no doubt ! systemd is the way forward .. We got to learn and adjust sometime .. now is better than later .
[01:26] <foo> Bashing-om: :) thank you!
[01:27] <anthonyb92> hello: I've got a link to some VBA code that supposedly works for your excel file, but it would require a windows box, I believe
[01:27] <hello> this one https://www.ablebits.com/office-addins-blog/2016/02/10/protect-unprotect-excel-sheet-password/
[01:27] <Khar00f> quick question, is there a way to view a list of existing gid's?
[01:27] <hello> @anthonyyb92
[01:27] <anthonyb92> no
[01:27] <anthonyb92> this https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/328118-need-to-unlock-a-password-protected-excel-2010-workbook
[01:27] <lordcirth_> Khar00f, cat /etc/group ?
[01:28] <hello> i have this one
[01:28] <hello> VBA CODE
[01:29] <MIKUBUNTU> The driver descriptor says the physical block is 2048, but Linux says it is 512 bytes.
[01:29] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, most filesystems like to work in 512 blocks.
[01:29] <Mojtaba> Hello, Do you know how can I use rsync to merge two directories, and overwrite files with the same name, if the destination is small in size. (does not matter if it is newer in the destination.)
[01:29] <Mojtaba> smaller*
[01:30] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: i just wondered if this is a result of my failing harddrive --- trying to get this usb stick ready to use to store/backup my data
[01:31] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, probably fine
[01:31] <MIKUBUNTU> except that i felt asleep for the last couple hours apparently
[01:31] <anthonyb92> MIKUBUNTU: I agree, I had the same warning on multiple drives
[01:32] <lordcirth_> Mojtaba, rsync will, by default, overwrite files
[01:32] <Khar00f> lordcirth_: thank you
[01:32] <lordcirth_> Mojtaba, or did you mean, overwrite only if the new file is bigger?
[01:32] <MIKUBUNTU> ok ... *i think*
[01:32] <lordcirth_> Khar00f, np
[01:32] <Mojtaba> lordcirth_: I don't want to overwrite the file if it is bigger in size, in the destination.
[01:32] <Mojtaba> yes
[01:33] <lordcirth_> hmm that's an interesting problem
[01:33] <Mojtaba> lordcirth_: overwrite if the source has a bigger file.
[01:35] <lordcirth_> Mojtaba, pretty sure rsync itself can't filter for that
[01:35] <Khar00f> I have a folder with permissions set to uid:gid as root:root permission 775, i have a generic user created through useradd command (account type Standard) and my main user set with account type Administrator, none of them can make modifications to the folder, is that normal?
[01:35] <lordcirth_> Mojtaba, how many files are there, and what's the total size?
[01:35] <Mojtaba> lordcirth_: Any idea how to do that?
[01:35] <Khar00f> i thought my main user would at least be able to
[01:35] <Mojtaba> lordcirth_: roughly 400 files, 3 GB
[01:36] <lordcirth_> Khar00f, well, since you aren't root, nor group 'root', you get permissions '5' = r-x
[01:36] <lordcirth_> So yes, that is expected behaviour.
[01:36] <MIKUBUNTU> ok, so i guess the only way to find out if it's ready is to try to rescue the data with it - the target machine has the live session running on one usb - so it
[01:37] <anthonyb92> Mojtaba: probably better off with a bash script, I don't think rsync has the capability baked in
[01:37] <MIKUBUNTU> s ok for me to now insert this 'presumably blank' usb into another port on the machine?
[01:37] <Mojtaba> anthonyb92: so how should I compare the file size?
[01:38] <lordcirth_> Mojtaba, yeah, what I would do is copy the new over to a new dir, then use bash to take the biggest of each and write to a 3rd dir. (for safety)
[01:38] <lordcirth_> Mojtaba, you can use ls -l to get sizes
[01:38] <Khar00f> thanks lordcirth_ , now i gotta figure out how to set my permissions
[01:39] <lordcirth_> Khar00f, what is the directory?  Is it prexisting or did you make it?
[01:39] <Mojtaba> lordcirth_: thanks
[01:39] <lordcirth_> Khar00f, if you made it yourself, I would make it root:sudo instead.
[01:40] <anthonyb92> Mojtaba: yeah, ls or du would be my guess
[01:40] <Bray90820> Can anyone help me my surface 3 with ubuntu 16.10 completely freezes when I run any browser and i got this error
[01:40] <Bray90820> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33402675/IMAG0104.jpg
[01:40] <Khar00f> it's a raidz1 imported from nas4free, the "folders" are datasets so not sure they're considered "folders"
[01:42] <MIKUBUNTU> something very wrong here -- when i put the 16 gb stick in the other machine it's detecting it as a 746 gb volume source
[01:42] <lordcirth_> Khar00f, zfs filesystems?
[01:42] <Khar00f> yes
[01:43] <lordcirth_> Khar00f, it shouldn't hurt to change the group, but I can't say for sure.
[01:43] <MIKUBUNTU>  could someone PLZ help me to try to extract and save my files so that i can proceed to install fresh on the machine?
[01:43] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, are the files you need to save on the USB or a hard drive?
[01:43] <Khar00f> i'm the one who changed it to root:root in the first place while trying to figure out the best setup
[01:44] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: on hdd of the target machine
[01:44] <lordcirth_> Khar00f, well then clearly it's not a problem :)
[01:44] <MIKUBUNTU> it crashed and burned several mos ago immediately after an update
[01:44] <kk4ewt> Khar00f,  then why did you change things and leave up to the ubuntu developers
[01:44] <lordcirth_> If you want only users with sudo privs to use it, then root:sudo is a good way.
[01:45] <MIKUBUNTU> hahahaha .. it's not a problem said the sith lord
[01:46] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: wait, is that for me? about root:sudo?
[01:46] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, no
[01:46] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: whew
[01:47] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, so, lets be clear: you have a computer with a failing drive, and you want to get your files off and onto a USB?
[01:49] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: yes i have a computer with a failing drive, which is this one i'm typing on, but its not the target of this operation. that would be the one right next to it which apparently has a good drive but will not boot up from its OS (lub 15.10 maybe) ever since said update several mos ago. hence i want to do a fresh install, but i want to get my files off first
[01:49] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, ok, so where are you putting your files then?
[01:50] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: so there's 2 usb's in the target right now -- the live session 1604, and the 'blank' usb to receive the files
[01:51] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, oh ok.
[01:51] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, so you format the blank one if needed, put it in the failing one, and get your stuff?
[01:52] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: i don't think it formatted properly or not thats another problem
[01:52] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, ok, so how did you format it?
[01:52] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: in the failing hdd machine, on gparted, but get error msgs
[01:53] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, probably best to format from the live system
[01:53] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: ok, best way?
[01:53] <kk4ewt> lordcirth_, he appears he cant get that to boot either
[01:53] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, I forget if the live system has gparted, that's the easiest.  Otherwise, cfdisk or fdisk
[01:54] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: i mean, plz guide me
[01:54] <kk4ewt> MIKUBUNTU,  can you boot the live or not
[01:55] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: oh yes apparently the live sys has gparted i just looked
[01:55] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, good, that's easy then
[01:55] <MIKUBUNTU> kk4ewt: lordcirth_ everything is easy for the one who knows :P
[01:56] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: ok i will launch gparted on the target 'now'
[01:56] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, you just choose the usb in gparted (double check!) new partition table, new partition, ext4 or whatever
[01:57] <MIKUBUNTU> getting the msg 'driver discriptor says phy block size 2048, etc'  -- do i cancel or ignore?
[01:58] <NoCode> What the hell is going on with this distro? It gets pretty damn old every time Gnome lockscreen appears, then it won't allow me to boot into gnome, so I have to restart the damn computer. I also change the kernel  and that also won't boot. This is a *new* install.
[01:58] <NoCode> I guess I'll install Kubuntu, bloody hell.
[02:00] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: so new partition table type msdos ok?
[02:00] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, that's standard for small things, yes
[02:02] <MIKUBUNTU> partitions 1 on /dev/sdc have been written, but we have been unable to inform the kernel of the change, prolly because it/they are in use. as a result , the old partitions will remanin in us. u should reboot now before making further changes.
[02:03] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: but i haven't made the new partitions yet, nor 'applied' to anything
[02:03] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, that's odd, but probably ok.
[02:04] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: that msg was titled libparted error''
[02:04] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: so that dialogue box wants me to cancel or ignore
[02:04] <lordcirth_> ignore, probably
[02:05] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: ok, so now, partition -- new?
[02:05] <cash> Hello Team
[02:05] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, yes
[02:05] <lordcirth_> cash, hi
[02:08] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: parameters? freespace preceeding? partition type (primary or extended), new size (showing 15262), freespace following, filesystem (currently set to ext4) align to:, and label??
[02:09] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, it's a usb stick, right?  You just want to put stuff on it.  So max size, label whatever you like, ext4 is default.
[02:10] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: ok, done
[02:10] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: standing by
[02:10] <MIKUBUNTU> lol
[02:11] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, for what?
[02:12] <MIKUBUNTU> to see if we're able to find/copy the /home folder from the target hdd
[02:12] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_:  to see if we're able to find/copy the /home folder from the target hdd
[02:12] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, 'finding' it will hopefully not be a problem
[02:13] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: if you say so .. lol -- i'm lost in space
[02:13] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, didn't you say you're on the failing system right now?  So clearly your home folder is there
[02:14] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: what if i need to delete some files from the process to fit on the 14.91 gb stick size?
[02:15] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, you'll want to exclude ~/.cache , it's useless
[02:15] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: nope, i'm typing on that machine -- the target machine has an underlying OS that hasn't worked for several months since a software update bricked it, and it has the live sess running
[02:16] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, oh right, you wanted the files from the target, before you reinstalled.  nvrm
[02:16] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: so that target has the live session usb, and the 'blank' usb we just formatted in it
[02:16] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: yes, that's it
[02:16] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, ok, so if you open file manager, it might just show the partitions on the side.
[02:17] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: ok lemme look
[02:18] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: oh shoot -- just applied operations in gparted and it says i should reboot
[02:18] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, it's a USB, replugging it might do.
[02:19] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: don't understand 'replugging'
[02:19] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, sorry, unplugging it, wait a second, plug it back in.
[02:19] <jonnyk> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wb6yGIXEzISNQ12x2gMrOv3kvpZjqj_OqyaV7tvtfVY/edit#
[02:19] <lordcirth_> it might update.
[02:19] <lordcirth_> jonnyk, wrong channel
[02:19] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: replugging the stick or the machine?
[02:19] <jonnyk> sorry
[02:20] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, the usb stick
[02:21] <MIKUBUNTU> an error occurred while applying the changes
[02:25] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: maybe i have the drives mixed up.
[02:26] <MIKUBUNTU> damnit
[02:26] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, I did say to double-check
[02:27] <MIKUBUNTU> sdb1 says its a fat 32 usb, and sdc says it's unknown lubuntu 1604 ... etc
[02:28] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: how to proceed
[02:28] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, did it fail to apply the changes?  Because if you tried to overwrite sdc, hopefully it failed.
[02:29] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: i think maybe it failed, if you see on my las msgs about error
[02:31] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, that is good.  If sdb1 is already formatted fat32, then you should be able to put the files on it fine.
[02:34] <Khar00f> alrighty, so i fixed and cleaned my folders and permissions, i got the issue with stfp to work, my remaining issue is with the smb shares, windows sees them but can't access them
[02:34] <Khar00f> does smb have it's own list of user accounts?
[02:34] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: when i look at sda the 700gb hdd, says 48 gb used, but obviously i cant fit 48 gb on 15gb stick
[02:35] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, some of that should be the system stuff you don't need.  What's the size of /home?
[02:36] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: i'm just observing that within gparted -- i havent been ablle yet to peek into the hdd
[02:36] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: don't know how
[02:36] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, it sometimes shows up in file manager, in the links on the side
[02:37] <_28_ria> how to recreate config? I 've got corrupt configs in some packages. So, I've moved their configs to some backup location and tried to do: 'sudo aptitude reinstall package-name', it went throught the reinstallation sequence, but files didn't get recreated. I also tried: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure package-name' - didn't help either
[02:38] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: i don't think i see any of th underlying hdd files in the filemanager
[02:39] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, in the shortcuts on the side, is there one for the hard drive?
[02:40] <lordcirth_> _28_ria, if you've moved them out of the way, try " apt-get -o DPkg::options::=--force-confmiss --reinstall install <package> "
[02:40] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: ok YES the hdd files are there!
[02:41] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, excellent.
[02:41] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: you said that just like a SITH LORD .. lol
[02:42] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, only in your head.  Also, my nick is not Star Wars related :P
[02:42] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: except a REAL sith lord would have said -- Eggsellent
[02:42] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: just kidding lol
[02:43] <_28_ria> lordcirth_: Thanx, a lot, it helped
[02:48] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: as i look, most of the things i wanted to save are in 4 folders: pictures, documents, camera, and downloads, by far the largest is downloads at 11gb and prolly has the most i could discard also
[02:50] <NoCode> Should install KDE from PPA?
[02:50] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: what is the best way to cull -- should i 'cut' or 'move to trash' those individual files i don't need?
[02:50] <sabrehagen> i can't find my google chrome binary. i installed chrome via the web installer, not apt-get. which google-chrome returns nothing. ps aux | grep chrome shows google chrome at /opt/google/chrome/chrome but test -f /opt/google/chrome/chrome returns false. where can i find my chrome binary so i can symlink it?
[02:50] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, I would first copy the things you know you want
[02:51] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, and then yeah, sort by largest size & delete things you dont want &  move things you do, until the rest fits
[02:52] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: its 11gb of stuff, would be easier to scan thru and delete large files like obsolete linux distros and large files like that
[02:52] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, that's why I said to sort by largest
[02:52] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, you could also search for *.iso files
[02:52] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: i never caught that suggestion
[02:52] <wafflejock> sabrehagen, not familiar with the test command but the file is there
[02:52] <wafflejock> sabrehagen, just ls or cat it and can see it
[02:53] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: how do you set those sorting parameters?
[02:54] <wafflejock> MIKUBUNTU, ncdu is nice
[02:54] <wafflejock> MIKUBUNTU, it will scan a folder and sort them by size and can delete by pressing d with a file/folder selected
[02:54] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, in the GUI file manager?  There's a button to switch to list view, and then you can sort.  Or I can show you the cmd line tools like ncdu^
[02:54] <Bashing-om> sabrehagen: " sysop@1404mini:~$ ls -al /opt/google/chrome/chrome >> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 110954056 Oct 20 02:31 /opt/google/chrome/chrome " .
[02:57] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: don't see sorting options like that anywhere  in the file manager
[02:57] <MIKUBUNTU> wafflejock: i not familiar with ncdu
[02:57] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, sorry, I'm on Kubuntu here so I can't look myself
[02:58] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: remember i have no connectivity on that box either, so i can't download or export anything that way
[02:58] <MIKUBUNTU> brb 5 mins
[02:59] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: brb 5 min
[03:00] <sabrehagen> wafflejock: the file isn't appearing for me: https://gist.github.com/
[03:02] <sabrehagen> Bashing-om: i get a different result to you ^^
[03:02] <sabrehagen> *sorry https://gist.github.com/sabrehagen/d2161c686b93e800ebe60931664d4606
[03:06] <Bashing-om> sabrehagen: Do not know what to day .. what perspective is git looking from ?
[03:06] <Bashing-om> day/say*
[03:06] <sabrehagen> Bashing-om: the git reference is my zsh shell. it has nothing to do with the commands
[03:09] <Bashing-om> sabrehagen: K .. still .. the default location for the binary in 14.04 is /opt/google/chrome/chrome .
[03:10] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: tried to 'find files' of type .iso and don't return any results
[03:12] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: i dont think you ever said if it made any difference if i use 'cut' or 'move to trash'?
[03:13] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, if you cut-and-paste it to the USB, it will no longer be in the hard drive.  If you move to trash, it will be.  But since you're reinstalling in this case, no
[03:13] <Bashing-om> MIKUBUNTU: Search the entire file system ? ' sudo find / -name *.iso ' . will do that .
[03:13] <jeffrey_f> sorry for off topic, but can someone answer a windows batch file + (java + params) question??  IM me please
[03:14] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: Bashing-om just tried to 'move to trash' xubuntu 12.04 for instance, and it said permission denied
[03:15] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, you're doing this from the liveusb, right?
[03:16] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: yes from live usb
[03:16] <lordcirth_> Yeah you wont have permissions because the usb has a user 'ubuntu' instead of your username
[03:16] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: i just want to pare it down enough so that i know what i'm saving will fit on 15gb storage stick
[03:17] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, well, you could delete them in terminal as root.
[03:17] <lordcirth_> carefully!
[03:17] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: also i was wondering can/or should i try to create a small partition on the hdd to keep a backup of these same files i want to keep, as a redundancy?
[03:18] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, you could, if you like.  Wouldn't be so tight on space, either.
[03:18] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: in term would require knowing every path to every file wouldn't it?
[03:19] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: since no gui in term?
[03:19] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, that's what 'ls' is for
[03:19] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: sry, over my head :(
[03:19] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, 'ls' lists files.
[03:20] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: ok so it would display the files in list form?
[03:21] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, yes.
[03:21] <lordcirth_> however, perhaps you should stick the GUI for now, since I need to go.  At some point, though, learn the terminal, it's great.
[03:23] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: thanks soooOOO000OOOooo much for all your help, it's comforting to know i can put my hands on my files, even if i haven't figured out the whole problem yet
[03:23] <lordcirth_> no problem
[03:23] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: you are too modest .. lol -- i know dealing with newbies IS a problem
[03:24] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: and i've been a newbie since 7.04
[03:24] <MIKUBUNTU> lol
[03:25] <MIKUBUNTU> so anyone available to help me figure out how to use root priveleges to delete certain files using live session?
[03:26] <MIKUBUNTU> a while ago someone had me open gparted as root using sudo root gparted. can i do the same with file manager?
[03:27] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, before I go, 'ls' to list files, 'cd' to move into directories, 'rm' to delete, and prepend 'sudo' to do as root.  double check everything.
[03:27] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: so are you saying i can prepend sudo root filemanager?
[03:28] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, just 'sudo' it automatically means as root if you don't say
[03:28] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, and I guess you could also launch the GUI filemanager as root.
[03:28] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: no comprehend
[03:28] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, 'sudo nautilus' I think
[03:29] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: that's what i meant, if i could open the gui as sudo and cut things out
[03:30] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: would i have to close the filemanager (and are we sure this is nautilus?)
[03:30] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: doesn't say nautilus anywhere
[03:30] <lordcirth_> MIKUBUNTU, they renamed it "Files" because ... reasons.
[03:31] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: but it would still be 'sudo nautilus'?
[03:31] <lordcirth_> But the package is nautilus, so the command should be too.
[03:32] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: do i have to close out the non-sudo instance first?
[03:32] <lordcirth_> not sure.  try it.
[03:32] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: ok
[03:33] <Bashing-om> MIKUBUNTU: "sudo -H nautilus ' as it is a GUI app;ication .
[03:33] <MIKUBUNTU> lordcirth_: as i'm looking for terminal i notice a menu item "File Manager PCManFB"
[03:34] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: what about this menu item "File Manager PCManFB"
[03:36] <rumblefish> hy guys
[03:36] <Bashing-om> MIKUBUNTU: Not sure what the file manager is in (l)ubuntu (?) .. what is the desktop that you are launching the file manager from ?
[03:37] <MIKUBUNTU> lxde maybe?
[03:37] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: lxde maybe?
[03:38] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: on sudo -H nautilus, i get : " sudo: nautilus: command not found "
[03:38] <wafflejock> MIKUBUNTU, looks like it uses "dolphin" for the file manager
[03:39] <wafflejock> ah wait no that's people asking to put dolphin on there thought that was the one from KDE
[03:39] <MIKUBUNTU> wafflejock: why does it have that menu item "File Manager PCManFB" ?
[03:39] <Bashing-om> MIKUBUNTU: K .. let's see if it is PCManFM . what returns ' dpkg -l PCManFM '
[03:40] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: gimme sec
[03:40] <wafflejock> MIKUBUNTU, yeah looks like that is it haven't used that file manager myself though, not sure what the executable name is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/PCManFM probably just pcmanfm but not sure
[03:40] <Bashing-om> MIKUBUNTU: Make that ' dpkg -l pcmanfm ' . where lower case I think is what is the real file name .
[03:41] <Frank_Jameso> anything new with ubuntu lately?
[03:41] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: ok lemme try again, the first one said no packages found matchihng
[03:42] <Frank_Jameso> I installed it on a thinkpad x200 and it's doing great, but I bet I'm missing out on some new developments since it's been a while
[03:43] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: pcmanfm  1.2.4-1  extremely fast and lightweight file manager
[03:43] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: so to launch as root try sudo pcmanfm ?
[03:44] <Bashing-om> Frank_Jameso: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes for the changes .
[03:45] <Bashing-om> MIKUBUNTU: As it is a GUI .. the safer thing is ' sudo -H pcmanfm ' . yes .
[03:47] <Frank_Jameso> whoah they're going with python 3? Is Python 2 finally dying?
[03:47] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: ok i closed it out cause i din't have the -H in there -- but -- it wasn't showing me the underlying hdd filesystem, only the filesystem of the live session usb
[03:49] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: terminal telling me "x terminal emulator has very loinited suport consider shoose another terminal
[03:49] <MIKUBUNTU> *limited support
[03:52] <Bashing-om> MIKUBUNTU: Well limited assetts will suffice for what you are doing . . The file manager opens in the home directory . you can move about the file structure .. I expect there to be partitions and places listed in the left pane of the manager .
[03:53] <MIKUBUNTU> bashing ok i can deal with that then, but still problem is i can't seem to find the hdd files in that sudo instance
[03:55] <Bashing-om> MIKUBUNTU: I have no acccess to the pcmanfm file manager . can not say ... but I would expect that hard drive to be in that left pane . right click and choose the "mount" option .
[03:57] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: right click wehre exactly
[03:57] <MIKUBUNTU> *where
[03:58] <Frank_Jameso> snaps seem really promising, has anyone tried those out, and were there any issues?
[03:58] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: absolutely don't see the hdd in the left pane
[03:58] <MIKUBUNTU> Bashing-om: and don't know where you mean to right click at
[04:03] <Bashing-om> MIKUBUNTU: I have no access to pcmanfm I can not tell you what I do not see or know about . There shoukd be an icon "somewhere" for that hard drive ( or the partitons on that hard drive ) ..
[04:15] <money> python
[04:16] <_28_ria> Bashing-om: I've finally solved my problem. I've posted it in askubuntu.com, if you are interested: http://askubuntu.com/questions/841086/bunch-of-errors-during-any-installation-witn-any-utility-apt-apt-get-synaptic/841471#841471

[04:17] <_28_ria> Bashing-om: I've answered to myself
[04:20] <FatSpitfire> mornin guys :)
[04:20] <_28_ria> FatSpitfire: evening :)
[04:21] <Bashing-om> _28_ria: Hey .. quite intuitive ,, an ingenious solution . You done good work . // Good also that you did go back and give your solution .
[04:21] <_28_ria> Bashing-om: Thanx, I hope, this will help somebody else, besides me
[04:23] <ioannis_> * helped
[04:24] <SURU> hallo!!
[04:25] <ioannis_> hello
[04:25] <kdjfkdaf> hello
[04:25] <SuperSeriousCat> Hello
[04:26] <Bashing-om> _28_ria: Well, like math .. Calculas is a general solution to a quariatic equation :)
[04:27] <ioannis_> REGISTER
[04:27] <FatSpitfire> _28_ria , Great job !
[04:28] <_28_ria> Bashing-om: FatSpitfire: :), I feel relieved now. Going to drink some coffee and relax :)
[04:29] <mbuf> Where is the source from where Erlang is packaged and installed for Ubuntu?
[04:33] <Bashing-om> !info erlang | mbuf : ' sudo apt source erlang ' :
[04:35] <Bashing-om> mbuf: My Bad .. to get the source sudo is not needed !
[04:35] <SURU> olla
[04:36] <NoCode> How do I get the Firefox icon to show up in Plasma?
[04:36] <NoCode> How is that quirk in 2016?
[04:36] <NoCode> Jeez man
[04:39] <mbuf> Bashing-om, i checked the .dsc file, but, Vcs-Browser: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-erlang/erlang/trunk/ is not opening for me
[04:41] <Bashing-om> mbuf: Nor for me . Non maintained source .
[04:45] <ioannis_> what does registering my nickname do?
[04:47] <nexace> can I redirect telnet external telnet traffic to another external IP? for instance, my IP is 1.1.1.1 and I receive incoming on port 23, can I redirect that connection to remote IP 2.2.2.2 on port 23 without the user noticing?
[04:48] <nihil123> does grub support  a compressed btrfs root partition?
[04:52] <yao_ziyuan> i ran this command and restarted ubuntu: echo xbindkeys > ~/.xinitrc
[04:52] <yao_ziyuan> but xbindkeys won't show up in System Monitor's processes. seems .xinitrc wasn't executed at startup. why?
[04:53] <yao_ziyuan> what's the right way to do this?
[04:53] <yao_ziyuan> i just bought a supercool Logitech T400 touch mouse and found some instructions to use xbindkeys to make its middle button fully useful.
[04:56] <Bashing-om> yao_ziyuan: Does the file exist ' ls -al .xinitrc ' ?
[04:56] <yao_ziyuan> yes
[04:56] <yao_ziyuan> ~/.xinitrc does contain "xbindkeys".
[04:57] <yao_ziyuan> i'm googling. someone said use xsessionrc instead.
[04:57] <yao_ziyuan> o no.
[04:59] <Bashing-om> yao_ziyuan: You also did the set up for xbindkeys ? ' xbindkeys --defaults > /home/your-user-name/.xbindkeysrc '
[05:00] <yao_ziyuan> Bashing-om: yes, if i manually run xbindkeys, the expected effect occurs.
[05:00] <yao_ziyuan> it would make my Logitech T400's whole middle button to middle click.
[05:01] <yao_ziyuan> if xbindkeys isn't run, only the lower 1/3 part of the mouse's middle button would do a middle click.
[05:01] <Bashing-om> yao_ziyuan: Ouch .. got me then .. should work @ bootup .. have you re-booted ?
[05:01] <yao_ziyuan> the problem now is to run xbindkeys at startup. i know GNOME's Session Manager could do this, but prefer a xinitrc-like solution.
[05:02] <yao_ziyuan> Bashing-om: rebooted. seems ~/.xinitrc won't be executed.
[05:02] <yao_ziyuan> there are some google results reporting the same problem.
[05:02] <yao_ziyuan> saying xinitrc won't run at ubuntu startup.
[05:02] <yao_ziyuan> btw i'm in ubuntu 15.10.
[05:03] <yao_ziyuan> 16.10 has premature stuff that i dislike, such as when you remove a file from a mobile hard disk it won't show up in Trash.
[05:03] <hateball> 15.10 is EOL
[05:05] <Bashing-om> yao_ziyuan: Hummmm .. put in a echo statement on the file .. boot with 'quiet splash' removed from the kernel's boot line .. see if ya see the statement in the boot messages . one way to see if the file is executed .
[05:07] <yao_ziyuan> i'll try GNOME Session Manger first.
[05:13] <Bray90820> Can anyone help me my surface 3 with ubuntu 16.10 completely freezes when I run any browser and i got this error
[05:13] <Bray90820> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33402675/IMAG0104.jpg
[05:14] <yao_ziyuan> GNOME Session Manager works, but it starts an app a little later.
[05:14] <yao_ziyuan> i'm still working on xinitrc or the like.
[05:17] <JonelethIrenicus> anyone know how to boot an iso file in vmware?
[05:18] <malik_> tes
[05:18] <hateball> JonelethIrenicus: VmWare is a company. For product specific support you can check out #vmware
[05:22] <MichaelTiebesl> hi there, i can't open preferences in nautilus as root
[05:24] <yao_ziyuan> i'm sure my ~/.xinitrc won't run because i put this in it and abc.txt won't be created: echo 'abc' > ~/abc.txt
[05:25] <th0r> yao_ziyuan, try replacing ~ with the full path
[05:25] <yao_ziyuan> also, my .xinitrc is without any header.
[05:26] <yao_ziyuan> i mean, it doesn't specify any interpreter.
[05:26] <JonelethIrenicus> hateball: i got it working
[05:26] <yao_ziyuan> is it ok to just put a command in xinitrc?
[05:26] <hateball> JonelethIrenicus: :)
[05:27] <Zirland> hello. I need an advise. My computer is freezing in random intervals, I was trying to look into syslog - nothing there, i was running memory test - all pass. I dont know what else to do. it's a desktop Celeron 2GB 4-core with 1.7G memory running ubuntu 16.10
[05:28] <hateball> Zirland: Does it have ssd or hdd? Might want to check an hdd for physical errors with smartctl. Or liveboot and run an fsck on your partitions
[05:28] <Zirland> it has ssd
[05:29] <toastymallow> Hi!
[05:29] <ioannis_> hi
[05:31] <FatSpitfire> Zirland , stick with 16.04 ;) you could check if it is a ram problem : open your PC and exchange ram slots ;)
[05:34] <yao_ziyuan> th0r: used full path and still won't work
[05:35] <yao_ziyuan> th0r: manually run this could make a file: echo 'abc' > /home/ziyuan/abc.txt
[05:36] <Zirland> hateball: tried smartctl - no error
[05:38] <hateball> Zirland: I'd liveboot and run an fsck then
[05:38] <hateball> Zirland: what type of SSD is it?
[05:41] <yao_ziyuan> forget about xinitrc. GNOME Session Manager runs xbindkeys early enough for me.
[05:41] <yao_ziyuan> but i found probably a bug of gedit:
[05:41] <yao_ziyuan> open gedit, and type 'abc', and double-click to select it, and then click your mouse middle button to paste it.
[05:41] <Zirland> hateball: patriot blast
[05:41] <yao_ziyuan> it won't paste.
[05:42] <yao_ziyuan> this is perhaps an intended behavior. who knows.
[05:42]  * yao_ziyuan goes to enjoy Logitech T400.
[05:46] <hateball> Zirland: I had problems with a samsung ssd (since then blacklisted) when using ncq. you can try adding this kernel parameter when you boot and see if it makes a difference: libata.force=noncq
[05:46] <Zirland> hateball: how and where can I add this?
[05:47] <hateball> Zirland: when you boot, hold/hammer left shift to get into grub menu. edit the line that normally ends with "quiet splash" and just add "libata.force=noncq" to it
[05:47] <hateball> Zirland: that will make it a oneoff thing, just to test the waters
[05:48] <hateball> Zirland: to make it permanent, you edit /etc/default/grub and add it to the bootline there, then run update-grub
[05:55] <Zirland> hateball: will try rebot
[05:59] <toastymallow> I wish VMs and GPU pass through was easier.... New to Linux and this is a pain been trying for the last few days :P

[06:14] <incognito-dg> In synaptic package manager it says this: "Also, note that kernel version 3.8 or above is required for proper operation of
[06:14] <incognito-dg> the daemon process, and that any lower versions may have subtle and/or glaring
[06:14] <incognito-dg> issues."
[06:14] <Deep6> vlt: figured
[06:15] <incognito-dg> so can I run docker in 14.04. when I check the kernel it says 3.13
[06:15] <China_Mike> I have a live Lubuntu usb running right now, 'nother computer.
[06:15] <incognito-dg> 3.13.0-98-generic
[06:15] <China_Mike> the "install now" icon on desktop doesn't function
[06:15] <China_Mike> anyone know where I can find command line info on how to install it from terminal?
[06:17] <China_Mike> well, hmph
[06:17] <China_Mike> ok, thought IRC was my best bet
[06:17] <China_Mike> guess not
[06:26] <incognito-dg> China_Mike if the installer icon doesn't function, try to find the installer in the menu or see if you can find it it Dash and run it from there

[06:41] <joob> Hi. Ubuntu snap. How does one backup a snap or somehow export so the data created by it is saved?
[06:49] <ducasse> joob: aren't they saved under your homedir?
[06:52] <DavidFromBE> i'm trying to make my rx 480 work under 16.10, but i'm getting segmentation fault (dmesg shows error:0 in libMesaOpenCL.so.1.0.0) could someone help me troubleshoot this ?
[06:56] <afidegnum> hello, after series of power outage, i m facing some hdd errors, how do i correct the bad sectors? https://ghostbin.com/paste/aaago
[06:57] <EriC^^> afidegnum: the only question is how is that hdd still running
[06:57] <EriC^^> get a new one asap!
[06:59] <afidegnum> EriC^^: the hdd runs, it's a dual boot, but ubuntu hangs on bad sectors error, meanwhile i need to back up important files, apply some configuration settings while i was coding some utilities
[06:59] <EriC^^> afidegnum: there are 2071 bad sectors, and 48 pending sectors
[06:59] <EriC^^> that's a lot!
[07:00] <afidegnum> is there no way they can be fixed ?
[07:00] <ducasse> afidegnum: that drive can not be 'fixed'.
[07:00] <ducasse> afidegnum: it's a hardware problem, software can't repair that.
[07:12] <linocisco> hi all
[07:12] <seven> hi
[07:13] <linocisco> I have setup Konica Minolta Magic Color 1690MF via USB. It is fine. Now I would like to setup this printer from network
[07:13] <linocisco> how do I do?
[07:13] <linocisco> as I can't find guide or driver on Konica Minolta website, I followed http://foo2lava.rkkda.com/ to setup this printer via USB
[07:14] <fajarlaksono> wooo
[07:14] <fajarlaksono> its my first time using ubuntu and i got falling in love
[07:15] <Spookan> fajarlaksono: Congrats! ;)
[07:15] <fajarlaksono> how are you ?
[07:16] <Spookan> fajarlaksono: Im good, and you?
[07:16] <toastymallow> congrats! I am going to University to become an electrical engineer my current Professor made me uninstall windows and go to Linux but I love it cant get windows games working though.... Tried VM pass through cant get it working...
[07:17] <Spookan> toastymallow: What games?
[07:17] <fajarlaksono> i have question...
[07:18] <toastymallow> GTA Gears of War
[07:18] <fajarlaksono> i'm already download qtcreator.run , how to instal it ?
[07:18] <toastymallow> games that unfortunately aren't on Linux.
[07:19] <fajarlaksono> leave game and start to do something usufull for this world
[07:19] <export> toastymallow: can't dual boot?
[07:19] <fajarlaksono> i'm already download qtcreator.run , how to instal it ?
[07:20] <ducasse> fajarlaksono: why not install it from the repos?
[07:20] <acerubuntu> guys, good day! pls help i want to update my flash for firefox to the latest version23.0.0.185. any1 tried it before? i am really new to ubuntu16.04.
[07:20] <toastymallow> Nope not allowed he said I can do VMs but Linux has to be the Host OS
[07:21] <fajarlaksono> i'm already download it, i don't want to wait it anymore
[07:21] <export> toastymallow: so your professor is literally controlling your life?  i don't quite understand that.
[07:21] <fajarlaksono> need long time to download
[07:21] <ducasse> fajarlaksono: install from the repos, don't download and install manually.
[07:22] <export> fajarlaksono: why not download and install from repo in the first place?
[07:22] <toastymallow> It's his first year apparently idk. He said uninstall windows and install linux. I like it just kind of hard to jump in to it.
[07:23] <ducasse> toastymallow: he can't deny you to have both on *your* computer.
[07:23] <export> toastymallow: well i would love to be the one to tell you that linux has come to it's highest point in windows games support but i really can't, it's not bad but it is way far away from perfect.... the games are written for windows, it would be stupid to run games within a VM when you can just dual boot... the odds of him being stupid are slim though so maybe he'll understand?
[07:25] <toastymallow> I asked he said no he runs it through KVM/QEMU or something and he says he plays this and that and I will learn to I just have to go with out games till the end of his class and bla bla bla :|
[07:25] <fajarlaksono> where i can get git ?
[07:26] <ducasse> fajarlaksono: the repos.
[07:26] <acerubuntu> guys, good day! pls help i want to update my flash for firefox to the latest version23.0.0.185. any1 tried it before? i am really new to ubuntu16.04.
[07:26] <export> toastymallow: well generally you could probably load it through a VM but it would require virtualization technology in your CPU, but that isn't really the point though.... it's software written for an operating system (the games)... the best way to run that software is within the operating system it was coded for....
[07:27] <fajarlaksono> i heard rumor about lastest qt and lastest ubuntu. they said that if qt have trouble with new ubuntu...
[07:27] <fajarlaksono> is that right ?
[07:28] <Ben64> fajarlaksono: no
[07:29] <nick_1234321>

[07:30] <fajarlaksono> any grub chat of c++ lovers ?
[07:31] <wafflejock> fajarlaksono, you can try ##programming not sure of a C++ specific channel
[07:31] <admin2> hiii
[07:32] <fajarlaksono> wafflejock : i did but show this
[07:32] <fajarlaksono> sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu-linux
[07:32] <fajarlaksono> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[07:32] <fajarlaksono> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[07:33] <wafflejock> fajarlaksono, do you have another apt installation going on or something installing in the software center?
[07:33] <fajarlaksono> yes
[07:33] <wafflejock> fajarlaksono, typically this message just means you have some other install going on, can only do 1 at a time
[07:33] <fajarlaksono> allright thanks you
[07:34] <fajarlaksono> thanks you wafflejock
[07:34] <wafflejock> fajarlaksono, no problem
[07:34] <fajarlaksono> i do instaled codeblock. how to add blugin wxwidget for develop gui ?
[07:38] <wafflejock> fajarlaksono, I don't know code blocks well I've only checked it out but not used it much, maybe try in ##programming though
[07:38] <wafflejock> fajarlaksono, you may also want to check out https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/
[07:50] <acerubuntu> guys i think i made a mistake in installing the latest flash version for my firefox ubuntu16.04. because when i checked firefox add-ons plugins, there are 2 flash plugins there. 1 is of course the old version..how can i remove the old 1/
[07:51] <acerubuntu> help please?
[07:52] <wafflejock> acerubuntu, appears the plugins are in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins are you comfortable using the terminal?
[07:53] <acerubuntu> i have used it yes.
[07:53] <acerubuntu> wafflejock
[07:53] <wafflejock> acerubuntu, okay yeah just cd into that folder and type ls -al
[07:54] <wafflejock> acerubuntu, I haven't modified mine it just has "flashplugin-alternative.so -> /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin"
[07:54] <acerubuntu> ok
[07:54] <acerubuntu> i am inside the directory
[07:54] <acerubuntu> wafflejack
[07:55] <wafflejock> ls -al, to list files with extra info
[07:55] <acerubuntu> total 8
[07:55] <acerubuntu> drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 25 13:21 .
[07:55] <acerubuntu> drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Sep  5 20:59 ..
[07:55] <acerubuntu> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   37 Oct 25 13:21 flashplugin-alternative.so -> /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin
[07:55] <acerubuntu> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   39 Oct 20 20:39 libjavaplugin.so -> /etc/alternatives/mozilla-javaplugin.so
[07:55] <Ben64> :|
[07:55] <wafflejock> acerubuntu, where it has the arrow -> like that it means it's a symbolic link to another file, you can ls -al on that other path to see if it points somewhere else too, symbolic links are sort of like shortcuts
[07:56] <wafflejock> acerubuntu, for multiline stuff use paste.ubuntu.com or !paste > acerubuntu
[07:56] <acerubuntu> ok pls wait let me digest that..
[07:56] <wafflejock> acerubuntu, you can just remove the "flashplugin" one since that's the original if you want the new one to be the only option
[07:57] <Ben64> don't remove...
[07:57] <wafflejock> Ben64, why not it's just a link can always put it back?
[07:57] <Ben64> why remove it
[07:58] <Ben64> deleting things outside your home isn't a great idea
[07:58] <toastymallow> stuff breaks.....
[07:58] <loganlee> hi
[07:58] <Ben64> call me crazy, but it looks like one says flash, and the other says java
[07:59] <acerubuntu> guys this 1 is not a directory...i tried to cd /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin
[07:59] <Ben64> of course it isn't
[07:59] <wafflejock> acerubuntu, no it's a link to another link to the actual file
[07:59] <wafflejock> acerubuntu, they have a point though if there's an easier way to remove the plugin through firefox better to do it that way
[07:59] <Ben64> acerubuntu: using paste.ubuntu.com , please provide the output of "dpkg -l | grep flash"
[08:00] <acerubuntu> i tried to just deactivate it thru firefox but all the flash doesn't work
[08:00] <acerubuntu> it says this "You need Flash installed and enabled in order to use the Flash client.
[08:01] <acerubuntu> i mean the new 1 is always active status and the old 1 is never active
[08:01] <Ben64> then... problem solved
[08:01] <acerubuntu> but when i used it that's the message i got
[08:03] <acerubuntu> is this the 1? http://paste.ubuntu.com/23377839/
[08:04] <Ben64> you didn't install the package i recommended to you?
[08:04] <acerubuntu> Ben64, but the browser returned this You need Flash installed and enabled in order to use the Flash client.
[08:04] <Ben64> i didn't say to do anything in the browser
[08:05] <acerubuntu> man, i got confused
[08:05] <Ben64> 36 minutes ago i said "acerubuntu: try installing browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash"
[08:05] <acerubuntu> and see i don't know how to install the package unless there is a clear instruction
[08:06] <Ben64> you didn't say anything to that effect
[08:06] <toastymallow> O.o
[08:06] <toastymallow> oops wrong chat
[08:06] <acerubuntu> sorry Ben64, how can i do it?in the terminal?
[08:06] <Ben64> sudo apt-get install browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash
[08:07] <loganlee> pika pika
[08:07] <loganlee> pikachu
[08:08] <acerubuntu> ok doing now
[08:11] <acerubuntu> hi Ben64, this is the last message i got from the terminal http://paste.ubuntu.com/23377857/
[08:14] <Ben64> acerubuntu: ls -l /usr/lib/browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash/libfreshwrapper-flashplayer.so
[08:15] <acerubuntu> here is the result of that Ben64, -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1061976 Feb 16  2016 /usr/lib/browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash/libfreshwrapper-flashplayer.so
[08:15] <Ben64> looks good
[08:17] <toastymallow> linux always makes me feel like my grandma must feel when the clock on her VCR blinks 12:00 after a power outtage......
[08:18] <acerubuntu> Ben64, how about the instruction re update alternatives?
[08:22] <Ben64> acerubuntu: what version of flash does this page say you have http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
[08:23] <acerubuntu> 11.2.202.637
[08:23] <acerubuntu> i think that's the old 1?
[08:24] <acerubuntu> but this 1 https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html says i have nothing installed
[08:24] <hateball> There's a new adobe-whatever package in 16.10 that should pull in flash for both chromium and firefox
[08:25] <hateball> and I think it also grabs the 23.x flash instead of 11.2
[08:26] <acerubuntu> 16.10 is the ubuntu version hateball?
[08:27] <acerubuntu> presently all my shockwave flash version are disabled maybe that is the reason why it says i have no flash installed?
[08:29] <Ben64> it doesn't say you have no flash installed, you just said 11.2.202.637
[08:30] <acerubuntu> no i mean this website https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
[08:30] <Ben64> ignore that
[08:30] <acerubuntu> ok
[08:30] <Ben64> did you restart firefox after installing the new package
[08:33] <acerubuntu> yes. but wait let me activate the plugin. which 1 should i activate as now there are 3 versions
[08:33] <acerubuntu> the old 1
[08:33] <acerubuntu> then there is r0
[08:33] <acerubuntu> then there is d0
[08:34] <acerubuntu> old 1 meaning 11.2.202.637
[08:36] <Ben64> what
[08:37] <noonehere_> FF constantly freezes or hangs.... I have to kill the process.... this happen for anyone else?   it constantly happens
[08:37] <noonehere_> I'm using FF 47.0
[08:37] <noonehere_> doesn't seem to matter which ver.
[08:37] <sliddis_> What I try to start mysql, I get an error saying "start: Job failed to start" .. service mysql status says this: [1676734.444031] type=1400 audit(1477320530.130:22): apparmor="STATUS" operation="profile_replace" name="/usr/sbin/mysqld" pid=32515 comm="apparmor_parser" [1676734.465670] init: mysql pre-start process (32510) terminated with status 1
[08:42] <i666666pong> Why does Ubuntu (and linux distros in general) prefer Firefox over Chrome? Do Linux users overwhelmingly prefer FF? If so, why?
[08:43] <qvazzler> Hi guys. Does anyone use a HDMI CEC USB Adapter?
[08:44] <acerubuntu> Ben64! It works now!
[08:44] <acerubuntu> thank you thank you!
[08:45] <acerubuntu> just weird though because all the 3 versions are like active! even if only the version r0 is the 1 that i activated
[08:46] <acerubuntu> maybe that is why noonehere said it doesn't matter which version to activate
[08:48] <acerubuntu> Ben64: thanks mate! hope to see you again here. i am getting excited to learn more about linux..
[08:48] <acerubuntu> ciao guys1
[08:50] <sliddis_> i666666pong: i dont think chrome is open source. (chromium is though)
[08:50] <abhigenie92> hi I am stuck in a problem
[08:51] <abhigenie92> I had earlier kubuntu and windows installed on hard-drive on laptop.
[08:51] <i666666pong> sliddis_: software not being open source is a big reason for distros to ship an open-source alternative?
[08:51] <abhigenie92> Now, I installed a new hard-drive and want to install ubuntu on it
[08:57] <Wulf> Hello. I've got an Ubuntu 16.04 desktop installation. How can I get newer kernel versions?
[08:59] <abhigenie92> hi
[08:59] <kentung_> kernel.org
[08:59] <abhigenie92> I replaced my hardrive and want to install ubuntu on it. The old hard-drive dual booted windows and ubuntu.
[08:59] <fajarlaksono> hy anyone know about qt creator i want to ask something

[09:03] <Wulf> frenda: https://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/Okular
[09:04] <abhigenie92> grub is causing issues.
[09:04] <abhigenie92> what is the ideal way to replace hard-drives?
[09:04] <abhigenie92> sry I am a bit new , please help.
[09:04] <CountryfiedLinux> My USB mic doesn't work when my laptop is HDMI plugged into my TV. Any suggestions?
[09:05] <kkk7> o shit waddup
[09:06] <CountryfiedLinux> abhigenie92: You could open up the machine and do it yourself or have someone else do it.
[09:07] <qvazzler> Hi guys. Does anyone use a HDMI CEC USB Adapter?
[09:09] <toastymallow> CountryfiedLinux, I wish I could get someone to fix my stuff I tried for days tried several OSs and several people tried to get my stuff going alas I'm still stuck
[09:11] <Capprentice> toastymallow: Whats the problem?
[09:12] <abhigenie92> hi guys. This is what I have tried so far http://askubuntu.com/questions/841539/replacing-hard-drives-and-installing-fresh-os
[09:14] <Capprentice> abhigenie92: Go into BIOS, check under SATA how SSD is treated. It may have an option to treat the SSD as SSD. Change the ACHI to IDE and try again..
[09:15] <toastymallow> Capprentice, trying to do PCIE pass through with QEMU/KVM and Virtual Machine Manager....
[09:16] <Capprentice> toastymallow: Do you have Intel Vt-x enabled in BIOS.
[09:16] <linocisco> as I can't find guide or driver on Konica Minolta website, I followed http://foo2lava.rkkda.com/ to setup this printer via USB
[09:16] <linocisco> I have setup Konica Minolta Magic Color 1690MF via USB. It is fine. Now I would like to setup this printer from network
[09:17] <abhigenie92> Capprentice: hi thanks for reply! Where will this ACHI option be available?
[09:17] <toastymallow> yep
[09:18] <Capprentice> Under advanced settings. Some thing starts with "Advanced Mode..." SATA..
[09:18] <toastymallow> I can get the VM going but cant figure out the GPU pass through part...
[09:20] <abhigenie92> Capprentice: after that I should just reinstall ubuntu or rerun boot-repair then reinstall ubuntu
[09:21] <Capprentice> Repair GRUB.
[09:21] <Capprentice> toastymallow: Are you passing the right arguments via boot flags?
[09:22] <abhigenie92> Capprentice: repair grub means?
[09:22] <Capprentice> repair boot
[09:23] <Capprentice> Do you still have windows 10? Fast boot also needs to be disabled.
[09:23] <abhigenie92> Capprentice: ok thanks, reboot and will update.
[09:31] <ilSt> Hi all
[09:43] <linocisco> hi all
[09:43] <linocisco> I have setup Konica Minolta Magic Color 1690MF via USB. It is fine. Now I would like to setup this printer from network
[09:43] <Wulf> hi lino.
[09:43] <Wulf> linocisco: what kind of network interface does it have?
[09:43] <Wulf> linocisco: ethernet? wifi?
[09:43] <Wulf> nfc?
[09:43] <linocisco> as I can't find guide or driver on Konica Minolta website, I followed http://foo2lava.rkkda.com/ to setup this printer via USB
[09:43] <linocisco> Wulf, ethernet
[09:44] <Wulf> linocisco: shouldn't be big difference. Search for new printers. Usually it will be discovered automatically
[09:44] <Wulf> linocisco: then use the same printer driver you used before

[10:53] <krh> cfhowlett, thx
[11:02] <vladp> I'm going to upgrade my 32 bit linux ubuntu to 64 bit. Are there any things I need to look out for or can I just install the 64 bit over the 32bit ?
[11:04] <Wulf> vladp: not sure if that's possible at all
[11:04] <cfhowlett> vladp, no you're not.
[11:04] <cfhowlett> you can INSTALL 64 bit but not upgrade to 64 bit
[11:05] <vladp> wrong word choice... I'm going to install the 64 bit over the 32, so not an upgrade.
[11:05] <vladp> lol
[11:05] <Wulf> vladp: I wouldn't expect problems
[11:05] <vladp> I'll just have to install all the old packages back, but that's about it, right ?
[11:06] <Wulf> vladp: but in theory it could be possible that some stupid programs save their data in machine dependent formats
[11:06] <cfhowlett> vladp, correct
[11:06] <Wulf> vladp: it's a complete reinstall.
[11:07] <vladp> thanks a bunch! will start reinstalling =)
[11:10] <ViJG> hi
[11:12] <insy> is it possibe to have cinnamon next to unity in ubuntu 16.04
[11:12] <cfhowlett> insy, sure.
[11:13] <cfhowlett> you can only run one at a time however
[11:13] <brunch875> Does anybody know of a way to 'link' from Videos -> Music, but just the audio?
[11:13] <ubuntu> hi
[11:13] <ubuntu> any one
[11:13] <brunch875> or at least a way to do a "code wrapper" on symlinks?
[11:13] <Guest53825> hello
[11:14] <knightwise> hey Guest53825
[11:14] <WebHostingFree> )
[11:15] <EriC^^> brunch875: run a find with file | grep for audio files and make links for them there
[11:16] <EriC^^> you'll need find -type f | while IFS='' read -r i; do stuff here; done
[11:16] <brunch875> EriC^^: I haven't expressed myself correctly. I want to have musicvideo.mp4 in ~/Videos and musicvideo.mp3 in ~/Music
[11:16] <EriC^^> so not linked
[11:17] <EriC^^> actually strip the music from it?
[11:17] <brunch875> but musicvideo.mp3 isn't a copy. I want it to be an 'on the fly' extraction
[11:17] <insy> so whats the best way to install cinamon , in a way i can choose at the greeter what sort of session iwant to run
[11:17] <cfhowlett> brunch875, ffmpeg can do it.  not sure of the exact command though
[11:18] <brunch875> cfhowlett: What I want is to make a file which is created programmatically when read
[11:19] <brunch875> so I can cat test.txt
[11:19] <brunch875> but test is "echo hello"
[11:19] <brunch875> instead of a text file containing hello
[11:19] <brunch875> kind of how /dev behaves
[11:19] <WebHostingFree> !ru
[11:19] <cfhowlett> brunch875, ffmpeg -i foo.mp4 foo.mp3         is the basic structure.
[11:20] <brunch875> cfhowlett: the question isn't how the convert the file, it's more about knowing how to create a device as a file
[11:20] <mcphail> brunch875: I don't think you can do that without creating a custom filesystem
[11:21] <brunch875> yeah... doesn't seem like it would be some non-advanced functionality :/
[11:22] <ppf> brunch875: i don't really understand what you're looking for
[11:22] <sdasdadsss> xD
[11:23] <brunch875> ppf: know how /dev/random is a "file" which "reads" random output?
[11:23] <WebHostingFree> help delet vieus
[11:23] <brunch875> I want to create a .mp3 file which "reads" from a video
[11:23] <WebHostingFree> help delet virus
[11:24] <cfhowlett> WebHostingFree, give details
[11:24] <mcphail> brunch875: best thing would be to create your own userspace filesystem and mount it with fuse. I don't think there is pre-existing support for what you want
[11:24] <mcphail> brunch875: although I'd be happy to be proved wrong
[11:24] <brunch875> mcphail: that almost sounds like chinese to me. Do you know any good docs to learn about this?
[11:25] <bvk> hi
[11:25] <EriC^^> brunch875: so you want a bunch of fake .mp3 files that actually are like scripts that read the mp3 on the fly from videos
[11:25] <EriC^^> ?
[11:25] <brunch875> either way, having mentioned FUSE is a good start
[11:25] <brunch875> thx!
[11:25] <brunch875> EriC^^: Precisely
[11:26] <mcphail> brunch875: I haven't attempted this myself
[11:26] <ppf> brunch875: i'm not sure your problem is really the right problem
[11:26] <WebHostingFree> virus hdd space   http://pasteboard.co/1UZsadNG4.png SIZE
[11:26] <ppf> what is the _actual_ problem you're trying to solve
[11:26] <WebHostingFree> HDD 320G + 200MB
[11:26] <brunch875> well, my objective is to download music from youtube as videos
[11:27] <ppf> there's a truckload of tools for that
[11:27] <brunch875> and then being able to have 'mp3' references in the music folder
[11:27] <bvk> just try yotube 2 mp3
[11:27] <brunch875> without having to duplicate
[11:27] <mcphail> brunch875: to be honest, it'd be much easier to set up an incrontab rule to monitor your mp4 directory anf convert to mp3 in a different directory, rather than implementing a custom filesystem to do it transparently
[11:27] <ppf> brunch875: you have to duplicate
[11:27] <bvk> no need
[11:28] <brunch875> Well yes, that's what I'm doing right now
[11:28] <brunch875> but it's for the sake of learning!
[11:28] <mcphail> brunch875: I think there is an issue of Linux Voice with a decent tutorial on creating your own filesystem. You could start there
[11:29] <ppf> but the first thing you need to learn is to solve the problem the right way
[11:29] <ppf> not pick a non-sensical path just to learn what's on this path
[11:29] <ppf> the right way is always simple and stupid
[11:30] <WebHostingFree> http://pasteboard.co/1UZsadNG4.png    help pls   format disk space console
[11:30] <brunch875> ppf: I don't like the idea of duplicating data like that
[11:31] <protn> hi folks
[11:31] <WebHostingFree> hi
[11:31] <protn> for some reason I lost trash icon on lubuntu 14.04 desktop
[11:31] <ppf> brunch875: what's wrong with it
[11:31] <protn> how do I delete files I sent to trash?
[11:31] <ppf> you can also delete the video
[11:31] <EriC^^> WebHostingFree: you want to format the disk?
[11:31] <protn> in which  dir they are now?
[11:31] <WebHostingFree> yes
[11:31] <brunch875> but that's the thing, I want to keep the video
[11:31] <EriC^^> protn: type "locate trash" it should say
[11:32] <WebHostingFree> disk space error
[11:32] <WebHostingFree> is 320 gig - 298
[11:32] <WebHostingFree> 20gig ?
[11:32] <EriC^^> protn: actually that's a huge list, it's in ~/.local/share/Trash/files
[11:32] <protn> yes

[11:45] <ioannis> hello
[11:49] <wyre> what packages should I hold with apt-mark in a persistent usb?
[11:49] <wyre> maybe kernel and systemd?
[11:49] <wyre> (In order to can make upgrades without break init system I mean)
[11:55] <brainwash> wyre: kernel updates come with a separate package, so you can boot older versions easily
[11:56] <brainwash> wyre: systemd updates could potentially contain security fixes. therefore, it's worth reading the changelog
[12:00] <_shaun_> hi guys my system cant detect my wireless headset
[12:00] <_shaun_> what gives?
[12:00] <hateball> !details | _shaun_
[12:01] <_shaun_> the blueman-applet cant find the device when i scan it
[12:01] <_shaun_> hcitool also shows nothing
[12:01] <_shaun_> hictool scan
[12:02] <hateball> _shaun_: and the device is in pairing mode? can your computer see other bt devices?
[12:03] <Irany> I tried to install KDE on my Ubuntu, lots of erros, the KDE is fucked up, i wanna uninstall (i use GNOME and Dolphin), but i can't. > http://pastebin.com/ux0spmsH <
[12:04] <cfhowlett> Irany, sudo apt-get purge kubuntu-desktop && sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop
[12:04] <_shaun_> yes it sees everything else besides
[12:04] <Irany> I tried to use purge too
[12:04] <cfhowlett> and I specifically suggested you NOT install the kubuntu-desktop just kde so this would not happen
[12:04] <Irany> ???
[12:05] <cfhowlett> sudo apt-get -f install then run the purge commands
[12:06] <lslarry> dudes? any ideas why os-prober suddenly shows nothing?
[12:06] <EriC^^> lslarry: pastebin sudo parted -l
[12:06] <EriC^^> and os-prober's output
[12:06] <Irany> The "following packages..." thing appear in all commands.
[12:07] <wyre> brainwash, but my persistent usb fails when update that things
[12:07] <wyre> :(
[12:07] <lslarry> EriC^^, http://pastebin.com/Sc0RvzDR
[12:07] <lslarry> EriC^^, os-prober gives just nothing
[12:08] <brainwash> wyre: it fails while installing the new packages, or when trying to boot the updated system?
[12:08] <wyre> brainwash, at least when intramfs-tools tries reconfigure the startup fails
[12:08] <wyre> brainwash, it fails when is configuring changes, I would say.
[12:10] <wyre> so ... while installing the new packages, I guess ;)
[12:10] <brainwash> wyre: in this case it would be helpful to have the terminal output. maybe the error(s) can be fixed
[12:11] <bolovanos> hithere
[12:11] <brainwash> holding back updates, especially security related ones, does not sound like the best idea
[12:12] <wyre> brainwash, well... does not work so fine, even with apt-get update
[12:12] <bolovanos> I have ubuntu 16.04 in vmware on W10, I have installed ssh then restarted virtual and on login I do not see my former user name => I cannot log in - can you please tell me what happened?
[12:12] <brainwash> wyre: maybe due to limited disk space?
[12:13] <wyre> brainwash, 4G are enough?
[12:13] <bolovanos> is it reversible?
[12:13] <brainwash> wyre: depends on how it is used
[12:13] <MrSuru> hello
[12:13] <wyre> I've dedicated 2.52G to persistence space
[12:14] <brainwash> wyre: unless you share the terminal output we can't really help you
[12:15] <lslarry> EriC^^, any ideas?
[12:15] <wyre> brainwash, wait :)
[12:15] <wyre> it's working on it :D
[12:16] <wyre> brainwash, for instance, in apt-get update I get 'Error while moving old database out of the way'
[12:17] <wyre> brainwash, and what repo you would recommend me to dispense with?
[12:17] <wyre> maybe xenial-updates?
[12:18] <brainwash> wyre: did you google that error message?
[12:18] <brainwash> http://askubuntu.com/questions/761592/unable-to-apt-get-dist-upgrade-on-a-persistent-ubuntu-16-04-usb
[12:18] <wyre> to keep free space, I mean
[12:19] <brainwash> how does disabling xenial-updates help you to save disk space?
[12:21] <wyre> brainwash, well... not upgrading more packages than necessaries
[12:21] <brainwash> I guess you can do that
[12:22] <wyre> brainwash, but what would you say are the most important repos?
[12:24] <Irany> I just mass deleted kde-related things
[12:25] <Irany> Hope it don't mess other things
[12:25] <TheFakeMarco> Hi all, I resized a btrfs partition with parted (resizepart 5 700GB), now when I want to copy a file I get cp: error coping 'file' input/output error. Anyone can help me? Thx
[12:25] <cfhowlett> Irany, that's why you also run sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop
[12:26] <warripei> Hello
[12:26] <Irany> Ok
[12:26] <warripei> I have a problem with the 16.04 LTS
[12:27] <Irany> Seems like i don't need to
[12:27] <Irany> Everything is already installed
[12:27] <Irany> Nothing were removed :#
[12:27] <Irany> :3
[12:28] <cfhowlett> you should be good then, Irany
[12:28] <warripei> I was the 12.04 without problem, but in the new one, when I restart the computer the WiFi card is not availaible
[12:28] <ducasse> TheFakeMarco: did you shrink the fs first?
[12:29] <warripei> But when I shutdown (halt) and start again it is OK
[12:29] <Mement> Is Selenium available for Ubuntu?
[12:29] <protn> hey folks I want wget https://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension/download&extension_download_id=1222288 which leads to file hosted on aws, how do I do it?
[12:29] <marcomarcaccini> ducasse: I tried to use gparted but I always got error no space left, so I only used resizepart in parted
[12:30] <protn> ... :PP .... PP ..... PP
[12:30] <ducasse> marcomarcaccini: without resizing the fs itself first? in that case you will have corrupted the fs and lost data.
[12:30] <Irany> Cfhowlett how would you install kde?
[12:30] <cfhowlett> Irany, wait 1
[12:31] <marcomarcaccini> Ducasse: Now i'm running btrfsck --repair but I don't know if it helps
[12:31] <marcomarcaccini> Any chances?
[12:31] <ducasse> marcomarcaccini: you won't get back the data you've lost, no.
[12:31] <cfhowlett> !kde > Irany
[12:31] <marcomarcaccini> All my cm14 repos :(
[12:32] <Irany> -_- and I specifically suggested you NOT install the kubuntu-desktop just kde so this would not happen -_- (your words cfhowlett)
[12:33] <protn> i have tried wget --content-disposition http://www.vim.org/scripts/download_script.php?src_id=9750
[12:33] <protn> same bs
[12:33] <protn> :D

[12:33] <Mart> Hi, I have in my Unity menu bar an icon with a white box line and inside it you see a stop sign. When clicking the icon I get an empty menu. Can anyone help me get rid of it?
[12:34] <lordcirth_> Mart, right click and unlock from bar
[12:34] <Irany> I saw, thank you.
[12:36] <cfhowlett> Irany, for reference: ***-desktop will load the ubuntu flavor's Desktop Environment AND all the default apps for that flavor.  for example, xubuntu-desktop is the xfce4 plus all the xubuntu apps.  for the DE only, one would install xfce4.
[12:36] <Mart> lordcirth_, right click also gives an empty menu
[12:37] <Mart> lordcirth_, it is the bar where you also find the date, volume mixer etc.
[12:38] <Irany> E: Unable to locate package kde-plasma-desktop...
[12:38] <ioria> Mart you mean this ? http://askubuntu.com/questions/197595/what-does-this-red-icon-on-my-panel-mean
[12:38] <Irany> I think i should use plasma-desktop, the command on the link is outdated... idk
[12:39] <cfhowlett> Irany, same here!  outdated would be my guess
[12:40] <Mart> lordcirth_, no, its a different icon: It  is a white "box" (edge white, inside black). In the box there is a red circle with a line through it
[12:41] <ioria> Mart  can you take a pic and upload ?
[12:42] <Mart> ioria, sure, where should I upload it?
[12:42] <Irany> ...

[12:44] <cfhowlett> Irany, run the command and append | pastebinit at the end.         df -h | pastebinit
[12:45] <ioria> Mart  this ? http://askubuntu.com/questions/836826/what-is-this-forbidden-icon-in-my-systray
[12:46] <Mart> ioria, that's exactly it
[12:46] <Mart> see my screenshot: http://storage7.static.itmages.com/i/16/1025/h_1477399552_9468375_53611d4e44.png
[12:47] <ioria> Mart  usually means that you don't have the icon for that app
[12:47] <ioria> Mart  or misplaced
[12:47] <ioria> Mart  an indicator mostly
[12:47] <erasmus> where can I ask questions about using rEFind and boot Ubuntu off the 2nd ssd in my macbook pro?

[12:55] <Mart> ioria, here: http://pastebin.com/QJ1jWB1r
[12:57] <ioria> Mart  you don't remember what you had there  ?
[12:57] <Mart> no, no idea
[13:00] <Mart> ioria, does a running program try to put in a menu item/indicator?
[13:00] <ioria> Mart  yep
[13:00] <Mart> ioria, or is it a config file of unity somewhere?
[13:00] <ioria> Mart  should be an indicator ...
[13:01] <Mart> ioria, so one of all those processes should be killed? Mmmmm, now which one, quite a list :)
[13:01] <ioria> Mart  dropbox  ? (i'm guessing)
[13:03] <ioria> Mart maybe if you close other apps, will be easier
[13:03] <Mart> ioria, dropbox has an incdicator which is fine in the menu
[13:03] <protn> who here uses MC?
[13:03] <protn> midnight commander
[13:04] <ioria> Mart  it starts when you login ?
[13:04] <protn> any one
[13:04] <bangolio> hi, latest stable kubuntu, big screen with a special IR frame that makes it a "touch" screen connected to computer, changed orientation to portrait but the IR frame orientation still acts as landscape. so clicking and moving the pointer works fine but moving the finger up causes the pointer to move right and so on. I've tried changing the coordinate transformation matrix via xinput but it will
[13:04] <bangolio> not change. latest fedora had no issue with this. can anyone help?
[13:04] <Mart> ioria, going to login clean, brb
[13:05] <ioria> Mart  look in autostarted apps
[13:06] <Mart> ioria, I started a very clean Guest session and that stop sign is there
[13:06] <ioria> Mart  look in cd /etc/xdg/autostart
[13:08] <ioria> Mart  or in ~/.config/autostart
[13:10] <Mart> ioria, the last one shouldnt be the issue right when I am in the Guest session?
[13:11] <ioria> Mart  no
[13:11] <Mart> ioria, so in /etc/xdg/autostart I see a whole list of items, including indicator- items
[13:13] <ioria> Mart  if nothing happens when you click it , should be something you removed (or something that's not working now)
[13:14] <warripei> bye /quit
[13:23] <Mart> ioria, how to run those files? Nautilus is complaining they are not trusted

[13:38] <Manohar> ikonia what is your email id please  help me
[13:39] <ikonia> Manohar: I'm not giving you my email - you'll probably be best working out the connection problem with your ISP at the first instance
[13:39] <Manohar> ikonia: then what i do
[13:39] <ikonia> Manohar: solve that first
[13:39] <ikonia> then you can update safely

[13:40] <Manohar> ikonia how i can ISP problem solve
[13:40] <ikonia> Manohar: they will help you understand why your connection is dropping when you up date
[13:40] <cfhowlett> Manohar, first step: contact your ISP.
[13:41] <ikonia> Manohar: you can do an apt-get clean
[13:41] <ikonia> then re-try apt-get update
[13:41] <Manohar> ikonia i understand my connection is right but what i do i dont understand
[13:41] <ikonia> Manohar: your connection is right ? sorry I thought you said it got interuppted
[13:42] <Manohar> dpkg is interuppted
[13:43] <ikonia> Manohar: ok so clean that failed update out and re-run apt-get update
[13:43] <ikonia> Manohar: do you know what package is failing ?

[13:47] <wyre> what You cant update or change the kernel when using a persistant USB setup.
[13:47] <wyre>  The kernel lives in the root squashfs filesystem which is read only.
[13:48] <wyre> maybe should I hold them with apt-mark

[14:18] <abhishek> ducasse, but it is ubuntu under the hood right? Can you if possbile can a cmdline approach to install drivers necessary.

[14:38] <mooj> alright guys, maybe someone here can help me solve a headache?
[14:39] <mooj> i'm running an ubuntu 14.04 server off aws with vncserver, and gnome-control-center cant open
[14:39] <Haris> how to fix the date issue on 14.04 lts ? I'v never seen day/month names coming up as ?????? before on any linux/unix distro
[14:40] <mooj> been googling around, but nothings worked yet
[14:41] <mooj> it may be relevant that I'm using the latest nvidia driver becuase cuda 8.0
[14:42] <wafflejock> mooj, are you launching it from the terminal? can sometimes get some info about what failed there
[14:42] <mooj> yes
[14:42] <wafflejock> Haris, not heard of that problem if you type date in the terminal what do you get?
[14:42] <ducasse> mooj: gnome doesn't work properly over vnc, nor does any desktop that uses 3d accel.
[14:43] <a101101> hi
[14:43] <a101101> i have a question

[14:43] <Haris> ???? ?????? 25 19:43:37 PKT 2016
[14:44] <Pici> a101101: go for it
[14:44] <ducasse> mooj: not use gnome?
[14:44] <mooj> wafflejock: x window system error: badrequest serial 133 error_code 1 request_code 149 (randr) minor_code 8
[14:44] <a101101> have a problem the new kernel????
[14:44] <a101101> sorry, the new release kernel?
[14:45] <docmur> I just installed a Ubuntu 16.04 server and I'm trying to forward X data via ssh so I can use virt-manager, when I login to the box with either ssh -Y -2 user@host or ssh -X -2 user@host and then try to run virt-manager I get: http://pastebin.com/yCfE3ib5

[14:46] <mooj> ducasse: any other options besides ditching my desktop?
[14:46] <mooj> i mean i get that the easiest way to not have a broken hammer is to throw it away rather than to fix it, but I've got nails i want to hit
[14:47] <wafflejock> ducasse, do you know of nx or nomachine would work? mooj really dunno
[14:48] <wafflejock> mooj, all my VPS things are headless

[14:53] <sotrhraven> thank you, wafflejock
[14:53] <wafflejock> sotrhraven, not sure if support questions for it are typically fielded for it here I for one couldn't help ya :)
[14:55] <Haris> has anyone had this problem with date ?
[14:55] <aniia> eh?
[14:55] <ducasse> mooj: sorry, afk. afaik no remote desktop solution for linux works with 3d accel, your options are either a different desktop or using ssh like 99.99% of people do.
[14:56] <aniia> aqui no hablan euskera?

[14:56] <mooj> lol i have no problem using ssh, but there are things I want to do that require non-ascii graphics :P
[14:56] <aniia> euskalherria

[14:57] <ducasse> mooj: try a plain wm, or something like lxde.
[14:59] <mooj> hm
[14:59] <mooj> I'll look into it
[14:59] <mooj> though I'm not quite ready to give up on gnome yet.  took a good bit of work to get it set up well with the vncserver
[15:00] <mooj> thanks for the tip about 3d accel though, maybe I can make some headway there
[15:01] <pottoka> euskal norbait?
[15:01] <pottoka> euskal norbait?
[15:02] <auronandace> mooj: you'll want to disable any compositing features (which is what requires the 3d accel)
[15:02] <mooj> ok....where/how might I find that/those?
[15:04] <auronandace> mooj: i don't use gnome so i don't know if it lets you or where to find them
[15:05] <mooj> ok
[15:05] <mooj> i'll hunt around
[15:05] <auronandace> mooj: by far the most straightforward solution is to use a wm as others have suggested
[15:05] <mooj> ...isnt gnome a wm?
[15:06] <NoImNotNineVolt> no.
[15:06] <auronandace> mooj: it is a desktop environment
[15:06] <NoImNotNineVolt> gnone is a desktop environment, i thought.
[15:06] <SchrodingersScat> what do you need the gui for again?
[15:06] <NoImNotNineVolt> +spelling
[15:07] <mooj> i develop deep learning models for image/video processing, amongst other things
[15:08] <SimonB> Odd question. Restarted a server with 8 IP aliases. When the server came back up the outgoing IP of the server was the first alias, not the interface address we expected... Any ide why this happened, and how to prevent it?
[15:08] <NoImNotNineVolt> have you considered simply tunneling x over ssh?
[15:08] <NoImNotNineVolt> vnc isn't exactly great.
[15:08] <SimonB> I resolve it via changing the routes, and specified the source as the interface IP, but Im worried about a reboot having it repeat.
[15:09] <NoImNotNineVolt> persist the routes, make sure no network manager software is overriding the routes you want on boot.
[15:11] <SimonB> NoImNotNineVolt: So manually specify the source address for the routes in the network config? Ok, but why is the default the first alias as opposed to the interfaces IP? Thats what Im confused about.
[15:12] <mooj> NoImNotNineVolt: i haven't.  is it better?
[15:13] <SimonB> I.e. eth1 = 192.168.1.1 eth1:0 192.168.1.2, on reboot the src ip for traffic was 192.168.1.2. ip route displayed "default via 192.168.1.10 metric 100" Which I had to change to "default via 192.168.1.10 src 192.168.1.1"
[15:33] <linocisco> hi, my ubuntu is slow shutting down and sometimes freeze
[15:39] <vfw> linocisco: It freezes while shutting down?
[15:39] <vfw> linocisco: ...or it freezes during a session?
[15:40] <vfw> linocisco: Is it slow?  Or does it just take a long time to shut down?
[15:43] <vfw> linocisco: If it is a problem during shutdown, you should see information on the screen telling what is causing it.
[15:45] <vfw> linocisco: You should see some sort of error or some process or application that is having a hard time stopping.
[15:47] <RSk> Hey guys
[15:47] <RSk> i'm doing a work about ubunt where i can get information?
[15:48] <EriC^^> ubuntu.com
[15:48] <NoImNotNineVolt> ubunt? did you mean ubnt or ubuntu?
[15:49] <linocisco> vfw, freeze while in use
[15:49] <Guest42103> Ubuntu sorry
[15:49] <NoImNotNineVolt> then indeed, ubuntu.com
[15:49] <linocisco> vfw, slow shutdown or reboot time.
[15:49] <vfw> linocisco: memtest
[15:49] <linocisco> vfw, slow shutdown or reboot time. i tried to turn off wifi and networking when shutting down. but it doesn't help always. it fixed me one time
[15:50] <linocisco> vfw, how to memtest
[15:50] <linocisco> vfw, i got 4GB RAM
[15:50] <linocisco> vfw, 64GB free space
[15:50] <ducasse> linocisco: it's on the grub menu
[15:51] <linocisco> ducasse, is it risky? meaning can it wipe existing installation so that I wont lose working files?
[15:52] <ducasse> linocisco: memory and disk are two different things
[15:52] <linocisco> ducasse, I got never see memtest menu being not shown at startup. on server version, i can see
[15:52] <vfw> linocisco: Reboot hitting Esc key, you should get the grub menu and memtest will be an option.  If you don't see error right a way, run for several hours.
[15:52] <EriC^^> use a treadmill
[15:53] <EriC^^> and keep hydrated!
[15:53] <ducasse> linocisco: check that memtest86+ is installed
[15:53] <linocisco> ducasse, apt-get install memtest86+? mine is x64
[15:55] <vfw> linocisco: Try shift key will booting.  Not sure if it is Esc or Shift
[15:56] <vfw> linocisco: It is one or the other...
[15:56] <ducasse> linocisco: memtest86+, yes.
[15:56] <vfw> linocisco: memtest is more-than-likely already installed.
[15:57] <linocisco> vfw, ok
[15:57] <linocisco> vfw, let me try
[15:57] <Haris> what part of locale output do I need to change to make date's output appear in english ? the day, month part ?
[15:59] <vfw> Haris: What language is your system set to?
[16:00] <Haris> http://pastebin.ca/3732746
[16:02] <Random832> Haris: LC_TIME
[16:02] <Haris> where is it set on ubuntu ?
[16:03] <Random832> it's an environment variable, you can put it in your bashrc.
[16:03] <Haris> or how does one change the language/locale generally
[16:03] <Random832> also is there a reason you want to change just date output and not everything?
[16:04] <Haris> need the system to be in english generally
[16:04] <Haris> unless otherwise needed
[16:04] <Haris> which I don't think it is
[16:04] <Haris> at present
[16:04] <cablegunmaster> hey
[16:05] <cablegunmaster> wondering about network antennas , are they all the same? or are they tuned to a range of 2.4gighz? or 5gighz?
[16:06] <cablegunmaster> as in wireless network antennas :p
[16:07] <codepoetn> hey
[16:07] <codepoetn> i'm new to ubuntu
[16:08] <ducasse> cablegunmaster: that's a question for ##networking, i would think.
[16:08] <codepoetn> i've wiped out windows from my pc
[16:08] <codepoetn> so that i can get to learn ubuntu
[16:08] <codepoetn> but as i'm total naive at command line
[16:08] <cablegunmaster> Thanks ducasse
[16:08] <NoImNotNineVolt> hopefully you have spare computers :P
[16:11] <codepoetn> i guess i'm facing hell lot of problem in its normal functioning
[16:11] <codepoetn> i don't have spare computers
[16:11] <NoImNotNineVolt> haha
[16:11] <NoImNotNineVolt> no, well, it's just that you seem to be saying that you're totally naive at command line
[16:12] <NoImNotNineVolt> so it would be easier to learn if you had a computer [that you could use effectively] to help you learn.
[16:14] <Haris> dpkg-reconfigure locales
[16:15] <ducasse> codepoetn: as long as you are willing to learn, google a lot and read documentation you should be fine.
[16:16] <codepoetn> yeah i understand that imnotninevolt
[16:16] <codepoetn> first thing i wanna ask is
[16:16] <codepoetn> have you ever encountered a maiintainence page while boooting up your ubuntu os
[16:17] <codepoetn> ??
[16:17] <debkad> codepoetn: what is this page?
[16:17] <debkad> may be you mean boot messages?
[16:18] <ducasse> rescue mode, i would think.
[16:19] <codepoetn> no while booting up
[16:19] <codepoetn> i got a screen
[16:19] <codepoetn> that said
[16:19] <codepoetn> press ctrl+d for normal bootup
[16:19] <codepoetn> or press enter for maintaenance
[16:19] <genii> debkad, ducasse .. when for instance / can't be mounted it will prompt to enter single user mode to perform maintenance
[16:20] <h2o64> #cyanogenmod-dev
[16:20] <codepoetn> either way i was not able to get to home screen of ubuntu
[16:20] <codepoetn> and i had to format my laptop
[16:20] <codepoetn> :(
[16:20] <chl_> hey, eh, its probaly the wrong place to ask, but here goes..
[16:20] <debkad> hmm that new to me
[16:21] <codepoetn> yeah.. i didn't find the solution on even askubuntu webpage
[16:21] <codepoetn> there was some commands related to grub
[16:21] <joaquin> whats is this?
[16:21] <codepoetn> but that didn't work
[16:21] <chl_> can RIPE understand a CNAME record to a nameserver? dont have access to modify RIPE info :/
[16:21] <genii> joaquin: This is the IRC channel on Freenode for the support of Ubuntu operating system
[16:22] <ducasse> chl_: have you tried ##networking?
[16:22] <chl_> ducasse: I have not, thanks will do
[16:23] <codepoetn> what's the best place to get self-learning resources for using ubuntu os?
[16:23] <hateball> !manual | codepoetn
[16:23] <codepoetn> or maybe learning command line
[16:23] <ikonia> codepoetn: https://help.ubuntu.com
[16:23] <codepoetn> this is google question
[16:23] <codepoetn> but i guess existing users can answer better
[16:23] <ikonia> https://help.ubuntu.com is an official guide about how to use ubuntu
[16:24] <codepoetn> thanks ikonia
[16:24] <codepoetn> is it suitable for total beginner
[16:24] <ikonia> yes
[16:27] <codepoetn> i don't even no if i'm registered on irc
[16:27] <codepoetn> or i'm just named something randomly
[16:27] <codepoetn> i'm that beginner
[16:29] <vfw> codepoetn: You would know if you had registered your nick
[16:30] <pandacracks> Hello Everyone. I wanted to report an issue
[16:31] <MonkeyDust> pandacracks  le's hear it, in one line
[16:31] <codepoetn> in uget for ubuntu... i'm not getting good download speed. i get 30-40KB speed. that's it. it becomes stable. of-course my wi-fi speed is way much more than that. on my phone i get speed up to 4MBPS
[16:32] <pandacracks> the minimum system requirements for ubuntu on this ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements#Ubuntu_Desktop_Edition ) page is different from minimum system requirements mentioned for latest version 16.04 on this ( https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop ) page .
[16:32] <codepoetn> so what can be the issue
[16:33] <MonkeyDust> pandacracks  that looks more for #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:33] <pandacracks> Crisis is that former mentioned link does not mention the version of ubuntu for which that minimum system requirements were defined for and even the bigger blunder is that when we search on Google it only the first link
[16:33] <codepoetn> MonkeyDust can you help me with my problem
[16:34] <pandacracks> I am thinking that if a noob would try to install the ubuntu mentioned on the first page he could damage his old PC .
[16:36] <pandacracks> @MonkeyDust , So. Shall we leave this as it is? because, if we will then  it could confuse many new comers to ubuntu ?
[16:36] <pandacracks> What say?
[16:37] <Felishia> how do I change the keyboard language to spanish?
[16:37] <ducasse> pandacracks: look for contact info on the webpages, nothing we can do.
[16:37] <Mrokii> Hello. Is there a (relatively simple) way to stream music over the internet from an Ubuntu-installation to a single other PC?
[16:37] <Felishia> >:c
[16:37] <vfw> Mrokii: vlc
[16:38] <vfw> Felishia: Next row up with the right hand
[16:38] <Felishia> it's set in spanish
[16:38] <Mrokii> vfw: vlc is sufficient? o.O
[16:38] <Felishia> but it doesn't work
[16:38] <SchrodingersScat> Mrokii: what's your source of the music?
[16:38] <ducasse> Mrokii: or dlna.
[16:39] <vfw> Mrokii: I use mythtv
[16:40] <pandacracks> Ok. So there was a link in the footer for contributing to the guide. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide
[16:40] <vfw> Mrokii: You mean over your LAN, right?
[16:40] <Mrokii> SchrodingersScat: I simply want to stream music from my Kubuntu-installation to a friend of mine, so they can listen to it from time to time.
[16:40] <pandacracks> I will fix that later in time.
[16:40] <Mrokii> vfw: Nope, over the internet, to a friend in another town.
[16:40] <pandacracks> In the meantime if someone have time, then please do it .
[16:41] <vfw> Mrokii: plex media server?
[16:41] <Felishia> damn
[16:41] <Mrokii> vfw: I'll take a look, thanks.
[16:41] <Felishia> so why the layout change doesn't work?
[16:41] <Mrokii> ducasse: I'll take a look as well, thanks.
[16:41] <Felishia> -.-
[16:41] <snkcld> how can i install dnsmasq on ubuntu 16.04, without it interfering with /etc/resolv.conf? it seems that installing dnsmasq makes resolvconf use it automatically, but i want to use the resolvers provided by my dhcp server
[16:42] <Vorap> Hey, does anyone know if I can get my onboard GPU (Intel) working with my external gpu (Nvidia) without the need for the nouveau driver?
[16:42] <vfw> snkcld: Not sure that installing dnsmasq would alter /etc/resolv.conf
[16:43] <snkcld> vfw, right now, resolv.conf uses my dhcp settings. as soon as i install dnsmasq, it immediately uses 127.0.0.1
[16:43] <Felishia> how can I change the keyboard layout?
[16:43] <Felishia> I can't believe even this is hard to do
[16:43] <snkcld> literally as soon as i install it
[16:44] <Mrokii> SchrodingersScat: The exact source would be either a music player that is capable of serving the music to my friend or any music player plus some other method to stream the music I'm currently playing.
[16:45] <vfw> snkcld: So what are you using dnsmasq for?
[16:45] <SchrodingersScat> Mrokii: you have some options, one would be  a simple nginx server to host the files, or plex like someone mentioned (never used it myself) or owncloud/nextcloud has a music app, etc.
[16:45] <snkcld> vfw: local development. i have my app on "blah.com.dev", i want my local resolver to respond to that
[16:45] <snkcld> i will add "nameserver 127.0.0.1" manually to /etc/resolvconf/head
[16:46] <SchrodingersScat> Mrokii: to stream what you're listening to is a little different, then you'd need something like an icecast server or something (never used it myself), or one time I managed to loop music into mumble using jack :>
[16:48] <Mrokii> SchrodingersScat: Okay, thanks for the info. I'll see what of these would be suitable for my needs. Hopefully icecast isn't too difficult to set up, but I'll see what I can do with it.
[16:50] <ducasse> Mrokii: something like minidlna might also be a good choice.
[16:50] <Mrokii> ducasse: I've never heard of most of these but thanks for the suggestions.
[16:52] <backbox> hello
[16:53] <backbox> hey
[16:53] <hippybear> ?
[16:54] <backbox> hippybera
[16:54] <hippybear> helo, hai, hey, hi, howdy
[16:54] <hippybear> yeah?
[16:54] <backbox> are u new to backbox
[16:54] <backbox> or using  it from a long period
[16:55] <hippybear> you should join the offtopic room if you want to chat
[16:55] <hippybear> this is for support
[16:55] <ducasse> !backbox | backbox
[16:56] <backbox> how can i join offtopic room help me today is my 1st day
[16:56] <ikonia> backbox: are you looking for backbox help ?
[16:56] <backbox> althogh i am just 15 yrs old
[16:56] <ikonia> backbox: thats ok, is it help with backbox you need ?
[16:57] <Mrokii> backbox: the offtopic room would be "#ubuntu-offtopic", so something like "/join #ubuntu-offtopic" would be used to join the room. Depending on the irc-client you're using.
[16:58] <Mrokii> I mean, if you use a graphical one maybe there's an easer way to join the room.
[16:58] <backbox> ohkk
[17:03] <uki_> Can someone help me with this? https://askubuntu.com/questions/841698/updating-ubuntus-arm64-toolchain
[17:07] <trism> uki_: did you install gcc-ver-plugin-dev where ver is your version for gcc?
[17:09] <uki_> trism : Hmm no I have not installed that package ; aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --version : aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Ubuntu/Linaro 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.1) 5.4.0 20160609
[17:09] <uki_> trism: Is that a package for cross-compiler plugin support?
[17:09] <trism> uki_: there is this maybe? gcc-5-plugin-dev-aarch64-linux-gnu
[17:10] <uki_> thank you trism let me try it out
[17:10] <uki_> trism: that seemed to be the problem, yes. installing that package helped. thank you!
[17:15] <snkcld> how can i prevent dnsmasq from creating /run/resolvconf/interface/lo.dnsmasq ?
[17:15] <chl_> snkcld: you could disable it
[17:15] <snkcld> where would i disable it?
[17:16] <snkcld> chl_:
[17:17] <chl_> on 16.04 its in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
[17:17] <chl_> just comment it out with a #
[17:18] <chl_> and snkcld you probaly need to restart networkmanager afterwards
[17:19] <genii> Alternately, add DNSMASQ_EXCEPT=lo to /etc/default/dnsmasq
[17:19] <snkcld> chl_: "its"?
[17:20] <deanman> Hi, using an updated xenial and trying to utilize pastebinit. For some reason whenever i pipe something to it, it will simply print http://paste.ubuntu.com without appending any custom URL for my upload. Any hints?
[17:21] <snkcld> interesting, the /sbin/resolvconf specifically stops adding nameservers if it sees that any lo interfaces have a nameserver... thats precisely what i do _not_ wnt to happen lol
[17:22] <snkcld> i want DHCP to still set my dns settings (e.g. nameserver, search, etc), however, i also want to install dnsmasq locally, and not have it interfere
[17:22] <weathercloud> having some issues with my on-prem deployment of Landscape. The server is up but I am unable to register clients. I setup the cert per the documentation but still am unable to register my clients.
[17:22] <genii> snkcld: See the instruction I just gave earlier for that
[17:22] <snkcld> genii: ok i am trying that now
[17:23] <weathercloud> https://thepb.in/p/Vmh0VnqEnoWs4
[17:24] <trism> deanman: is your username over 10 characters? if you add say, -a deanman does it work? I see an old bug that sounds like that https://bugs.launchpad.net/pastebinit/+bug/1437286
[17:24] <marcis> Why i cant install teamviewer
[17:24] <marcis> I cant figure out
[17:24] <marcis> i click install but it stops
[17:24] <marcis> How i can fix this issue?
[17:24] <snkcld> genii: i want dnsmasq listening on 127.0.0.1 though
[17:25] <weathercloud> Regarding my landscape deployment issues. I opened a forum post at LQ.org. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/landscape-on-prem-install-issues-4175592198/    Any ideas are welcome.
[17:25] <snkcld> all i want is for /etc/resolv.conf and NetworkManager etc to behave just as it was before, but i also want to install dnsmasq and have it listening on 127.0.0.1 for my own purposes, and to not interfere with the rest of the setup
[17:26] <chl_> isnt that just the default setup?
[17:27] <chl_> ah wait, are you setting up a dns server on the same machine in question?
[17:27] <chl_> @snkcld
[17:27] <genii> snkcld: There might be some settings within dnsmasq to allow for this, but I think you'd need to ask them specifically about it in #dnsmasq chasnnel
[17:28] <snkcld> chl_: yes
[17:28] <snkcld> genii: ok, i will do that, thanks
[17:28] <Undo_> Could I get some help with kernel/OS version compatibility? I'd like to update the kernel on a work computer (it's on 14.04.4, kernel version 4.2.0-42-generic right now) so that it's safe against the "dirty-COW" exploit, but I'm not really sure which kernel (from kernel.org?) I should be patching to.
[17:29] <snkcld> what exactly is creating the "/run/resolvconf/interface/lo.dnsmasq" file anyway? dnsmasq?
[17:29] <chl_> i wasnt successful with having a dns server and dnsmasq running concurrently this week, fixed it by disabling it
[17:29] <snkcld> so i would simply have to tell dnsmasq not to create this file, it would seem, by reading the /sbin/resolvconf code
[17:29] <deanman> trism: It does not work either with -a deanman
[17:29] <bekks> Undo_: sudo apt-update; sudo apt full-upgrade; and afterwards install the latest hardware enablement stack for LTS.
[17:29] <bekks> !hwe | Undo_
[17:31] <Undo_> ubottu, bekks: Thanks! I've come across "hwe" but really have little idea what it is; guess I'll take a read at that wiki page.
[17:31] <Undo_> Ah hahaha oops
[17:32] <trism> deanman: I also saw this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/pastebinit/+bug/1574849 do you have an old ~/.pastebinit.xml?
[17:33] <mtgr> hello ! do you know how to quite a channel ?
[17:33] <Southern_Gentlem>  /quit
[17:33] <mtgr> thanks ! but it quit the entire irc client and not just the channel...
[17:33] <Undo_> bekks: So... doing the apt full-upgrade and then installing all the hwe stuff will install a suitable new kernel?
[17:34] <bekks> Undo_: It will install the latest available patches.
[17:35] <hippybear> Re: dirtyc0w "Exploitation of this bug does not leave any trace of anything abnormal happening to the logs"
[17:35] <hippybear> \0/
[17:35] <deanman> trism: It's just a fresh installation with latest updates. I don't have any .pastebinit.xml. The funny thing is that if i use a different provider it will work but not with paste.ubuntu.com.
[17:35] <Undo_> bekks: Ah, right. Given that kernel version 4.2 is no longer supported, does that mean I'll need to update the kernel to a newer version to even have a suitable patch?
[17:36] <bekks> Undo_: Why do you think 4.2.0 isnt supported anymore?
[17:36] <Undo_> bekks: I thought the support schedule page says it was supported from February to August? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support
[17:37] <marcis> Hello i cant install teamviewer
[17:37] <marcis> How to fix
[17:37] <marcis> ?
[17:37] <bekks> Undo_: So install latest updates as above, and install the latest HWE. You will end up in a supported, patched kernel.
[17:37] <trism> deanman: strange
[17:37] <deanman> trism: In fact if i try to explicitly say to use paste.ubuntu.com i get the following http://paste.ubuntu.com/23379929/
[17:38] <bekks> marcis: We dont know, because you didnt tell us which error you get.
[17:38] <mrbt> do you know how to find an interessant channel ? Is there a list or something ?
[17:39] <trism> deanman: yeah that's what the above bug is about you have to use -b https://paste.ubuntu.com/ , but it should use the right thing by default (it works without any -b argument here)
[17:40] <weathercloud> anyone able to help with a Landscape on-prem install  registration issue?
[17:41] <Zta> So... apt is the new apt-get or what?
[17:41] <mrbt> quit channel
[17:41] <deanman> trism: well even with https doesn't work
[17:45] <trism> deanman: you could try with the --verbose option, doesn't really seem to give much additional info though

[17:56] <NUTsTUN> I need to run 2 commands when my computer starts up, can someone help me with doing that?
[17:56] <wyre_> anyone knows if could I upgrade a system in a persistent usb?
[17:56] <bekks> !autostart | NUTsTUN
[17:57] <NUTsTUN> I've tried that and it doesn't work. I'm trying to run $ sudo modprobe -r elan_i2c
[17:57] <NUTsTUN> and $ sudo modprobe elan_i2c
[17:57] <bekks> you tried what and what doesnt work?
[17:57] <NUTsTUN> the startup programs
[17:58] <bekks> because sudo requires a terminal for entering your password.
[17:58] <bekks> NUTsTUN: you would need to use gksudo
[17:58] <NUTsTUN> What does that do?
[17:58] <bekks> gksudo is a graphical replacement for sudo.
[17:59] <NUTsTUN> Alright, I'll try it out. Thanks for the help!
[18:06] <carbine> Is anyone here able to help with some ath9k issues I'm having?
[18:07] <bekks> carbine: that depends on your actual question.
[18:09] <carbine> bekks: I am able to connect and use my connection as normal at my house. When I bring my laptop to the office, I am able to connect with no issue, but my connection stability is hit and miss. I never actually disconnect. I've turned off power management, hwcrypt, disabled IPv6. Basically anything I could find via Ubuntu forums and Google.
[18:10] <carbine> Ubuntu 16.04, ar9565
[18:10] <carbine> Fresh install of 16.04 as well
[18:11] <bekks> Whats the ouput of dmesg when the connection fails?
[18:12] <icxcnika> Hey guys, networking stuff I can't figure out. Ubuntu 16.04 as an lxd/lxc server. /etc/nework/interfaces looks like https://gist.github.com/wheimbigner/dbc0d4d6c71b932033cc7dbd40288a8a - I've changed the first 3 octets of the IP/gateway involved.
[18:12] <icxcnika> on rebooting, it works /almost/ exactly as I'd expect, except it doesn't have a default route set, such that it can't reach the outside world, and I have to manually add the defafult gateway via `route add default gw 10.0.0.241 dev lxdbr0`
[18:13] <icxcnika> any idea why the gateway setting won't stick?
[18:17] <carbine> bekks: Let me check
[18:18] <carbine> Last I see is wlp2s0: associated
[18:18] <arunpyasi> Hello people, I wanted to connect and listen songs from my ubuntu via bluetooth but its not working. I can connect my bluetooth speaker with my android phone but not with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS PC.
[18:18] <carbine> With connection not working currently.
[18:18] <bekks> carbine: thats just a single line. Pastebin the entire output when the connection fails.
[18:19] <arunpyasi> I can connect my speaker but it gets disconnected automatically in few seconds and no sound is output.
[18:19] <carbine> I'm unable to pastebin as that machine has no connection.
[18:19] <vfw>   icxcnika You don't have any network management software installed?
[18:19] <bekks> carbine: you can safe it to a text file and pastebin it after restoring your connection.
[18:19] <vfw> icxcnika: (If you do, that is more than likely the problem.)
[18:20] <carbine> http://pastebin/UF4mnUqJ
[18:20] <carbine> Whoops
[18:20] <carbine> http://pastebin.com/UF4mnUqJ
[18:23] <vfw> icxcnika: You probably need to delete the line "auto lxdbr0"
[18:24] <icxcnika> vfw: thanks, will try that
[18:25] <vfw> icxcnika: See that you do not have network-manager installed
[18:26] <rocket__> hi
[18:26] <scheuri> hello all....the release schedule lists 16.04.1, but nothing in the future...am I wrong that I remember a relativly fix release schedule for Point releases? Any info on 16.04.2?
[18:26] <rocket__> anybody has an idea how to speed up qemu
[18:26] <rocket__> its pretty slow
[18:26] <rocket__> with graphics
[18:29] <compdoc> rocket__, I dont use qemu-kvm for guests that need fast video. But you do have a choice of VNC or Spice. I dont use spice, but its supposed to be better
[18:29] <vfw> scheuri: It is not time for .2 yet
[18:29] <rocket__> i think its still slow compdoc
[18:30] <rocket__> i tried to activate opengl
[18:30] <rocket__> it says not possible
[18:30] <rocket__> compdoc, maybe i try gpu pass next
[18:30] <scheuri> vfw: thanks...I figured...I thought there was a rather fixed time schedule...but I guess I must have mis-remembered...so there is no ETA?
[18:30] <compdoc> virtualbox is better with graphics, but its not really meant to be used as a server. Just for your desktop
[18:31] <vfw> scheuri: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
[18:31] <compdoc> rocket__  ^
[18:31] <scheuri> vfw: thank you for your help...
[18:32] <scheuri> vfw: I guess it is waiting time :)
[18:32] <vfw> compdoc: No reason why virtualbox can't be used as a server.  Well, we should say servers....
[18:33] <rocket__> compdoc, can i make gpu passthrough with virtual box?
[18:33] <compdoc> Ive done it, there are tools. but its not really great for that
[18:33] <rocket__> qemu is great for that right?
[18:33] <compdoc> rocket__, dunno. I dont use passthrough
[18:33] <compdoc> your PC needs to support it
[18:33] <vfw> compdoc: If you have enough horsepower, I don't see why you wouldn't.
[18:33] <rocket__> compdoc, it would be nice to run games on windows
[18:34] <rocket__> compdoc, i have intel vx and nvidia
[18:34] <rocket__> nvidia could be some issue
[18:34] <rocket__> lets see
[18:34] <bekks> rocket__: that doesnt mean much.
[18:34] <bekks> rocket__: you need VT-d
[18:34] <Irany> Someone knows a good screenshot program which you can select an area and instantly copy to clipboard(Already tried xfce4, gnome and screengrab)
[18:35] <scheuri> rocket__: about 6 month ago or so I tried the whole virtualbox and 3D accel stuff....they made some progress IMHO, but I am not sure of gaming is really going to be much fun like that...it didn't work very well (but that is just me, YMMV)
[18:36] <scheuri> rocket__: depending on the game, you might be luckier with linux ports or with wine...but guessing that you ask here about vbox and gaming...you tried that already :)
[18:36] <rocket__> scheuri, friend of mine has done it with amd and qemu
[18:36] <carbine> I wonder if this could be part of my problem: [ 1817.139492] wlp2s0: deauthenticated from 82:2a:a8:91:77:6e (Reason: 6=CLASS2_FRAME_FROM_NONAUTH_STA)
[18:36] <rocket__> and he told me he has almost 90% performance
[18:37] <scheuri> rocket__: oh, you are talking qemu...that might be something else
[18:37] <scheuri> rocket__: sorry..
[18:37] <rocket__> but h e also said nvidia could be a problem
[18:37] <protn> hey folks
[18:37] <rocket__> thats why im using qemu not vbox
[18:37] <protn> where I can find xmlwriter for ubuntu 14.04?
[18:37] <bekks> rocket__: And you still need to meet the requirements. "nvidia" is not one of those. :)
[18:37] <rocket__> probably it was a mistake to buy this gpu
[18:37] <rocket__> but now i have it
[18:38] <rocket__> i like it
[18:38] <protn> something like http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/php7.0-xml but for php5
[18:38] <protn> :)
[18:38] <rocket__> but its a issue under linux
[18:38] <bekks> rocket__: It doesnt matter - does your computer supprt VT-d?
[18:38] <rocket__> an
[18:38] <rocket__> yes
[18:38] <rocket__> it does
[18:38] <rocket__> what is that about?
[18:38] <bekks> rocket__: VT-x or VT-d?
[18:38] <scheuri> rocket__: gaming is an issue indeed...and likely will be for some time unfortunately...but there we are
[18:38] <rocket__> i think vt-x
[18:38] <bekks> rocket__: you think or you know?
[18:38] <rocket__> i know
[18:38] <bekks> rocket__: For GPU passthrough, you NEED VT-d.
[18:39] <rocket__> wait i will have a look
[18:39] <bekks> rocket__: Not only your CPU need to support it, but your mainboard too.
[18:40] <rocket__> bekks
[18:41] <rocket__> i have some i5
[18:41] <rocket__> i will have a look in the bios
[18:41] <rocket__> one moment
[18:41] <icxcnika> vfw: removing the auto lxdbr0 doesn't change anything
[18:42] <protn> :)
[18:42] <JustMozzy> I don't get it. I have to 16.04 machines. I installed docker on both, however on has the shitty loopback for files and on the other it uses AUFS as a backend... why do I get different setting on the same system?
[18:46] <rocket__> bekks, yes i have it
[18:48] <wyre_> I need keep freeze problematic packages of upgrade in a usb persistent stick
[18:48] <wyre_> can anyone help me? what packages should I freeze?
[18:49] <rocket__> bekks, and?
[18:52] <bekks> rocket__: So your computer supports VT-d.
[18:58] <vfw> icxcnika: So just use /etc/rc.local
[18:59] <vfw> icxcnika: (If it's not enabled, enable it.)
[18:59] <vfw> icxcnika: Just add the line: route add default gw 10.0.0.241
[19:00] <icxcnika> vfw: I... can, but that seems kinda hacky
[19:00] <younder> vfw,  I am doing IP masquerading in rc.local because it otherwise messes with ufw. Is that a good idea?
[19:00] <vfw> icxcnika: I know but it will fix the problem.  Later you can figure out what is doing it.
[19:01] <ubuntu293> where can i find the wlan0 file?? it isnt in /etc/network/interfaces.d
[19:01] <vfw> younder: In my opinion, it doesn't matter much where you put your script, whether it is a firewall script or what ever, if it works it works.
[19:02] <vfw> icxcnika: Some may call something like this an ugly hack, but is it?  (Just because we say something does not make it so.)
[19:04] <vfw> icxcnika: younder I think it is all about what is easiest for me (or you).  If I see an easy way to configure something, I do it, and I don't worry about whether someone else will call it an ugly hack, and I don't worry about it because, more-than-likely, no one will even see it.
[19:06] <younder> vfw:  good point
[19:15] <vfw> icxcnika: younder The only problem with what I just said is later on - like a year from now - you may forget - you may wonder where you put this stuff.  But it should be pretty obvious that we should look at rc.local
[19:15] <carbine> May have fixed this wifi issue...
[19:16] <vfw> carbine: What was the problem?
[19:16] <carbine> Nevermind. Still having issues.
[19:16] <vfw> carbine: What is it?
[19:16] <carbine> Very unstable connection using ath9k
[19:17] <vfw> carbine: What does the signal stength look like?
[19:17] <carbine> Shows connected, fast connection every now and then. Connection drops out after 5 seconds or so. Comes back whenever it feels like it
[19:17] <carbine> vfw: full signal
[19:17] <carbine> I sit right under the AP
[19:17] <carbine> No connection issues on wifi at home.
[19:17] <carbine> Both work and home use WPA2 Personal
[19:18] <vfw> carbine: So what is unstable about it?
[19:18] <carbine> Randomly I'm unable to ping, downloads fail, websites are unresponsive
[19:18] <carbine> I have about 5-10 seconds of connectivity at a time that comes and goes at an unknown interval.
[19:19] <vfw> carbine: Check to see what you have.   See what nameserver you are using.  See that the essid has not chanbed.  See if the route is same.
[19:20] <carbine> I changed the nameservers to opendns, as well as trying google's DNS.
[19:20] <carbine> Fail on both, as well as my DHCP'd DNS
[19:20] <carbine> Disabled IPv6, turned off power management, disabled hwcrypt
[19:20] <carbine> I definately believe it's an ath9k driver issue as I had this with the same laptop running Arch last week.
[19:21] <vfw> carbine: Why are you not using your router'
[19:21] <younder> wtf: I keep a journal of changes to the system. I would recomend everyone to do the same. I also use etckeeper and thus git version control for added robustness.
[19:21] <vfw> carbine: Why are you not using your router's caching nameserver?
[19:21] <vfw> carbine: What kind of network are you on?
[19:22] <carbine> Not completely sure. Just my work's wifi running WPA2 personal.
[19:22] <vfw> carbine: Is it your router?  Or someone eles's router?
[19:22] <ulrichard> After upgrading to 16.10 I can no longer login as another user from the lock screen. Is there an easy way to bring that back?
[19:23] <vfw> carbine: Oh it is at your work place?
[19:23] <carbine> My work's router at work. My personal AT&T-issued router at home (home works, work does not)
[19:23] <carbine> Yes. Correct.
[19:23] <vfw> carbine: Try just hard coding the default route IP as your nameserver.
[19:23] <carbine> Both are WPA2 Personal. When the connection works for the short time at work, its pretty fast.
[19:23] <carbine> Okay
[19:23] <carbine> One sec.
[19:24] <ioria> ulrichard, can you open a console and login in text mode ?
[19:24] <ulrichard> ioria: yes, that is no problem
[19:24] <vfw> carbine: It may be a problem with the router's configuration.
[19:24] <ioria> ulrichard,  can you paste   ls -la ~/.Xauthority   ?
[19:25] <ioria> ulrichard,  of the not-working user, i mean
[19:26] <ulrichard> ioria: I'm not on that machine right now. But the option is not available regardless of who is currently logged in.
[19:26] <carbine> vfw: That's concerning, as this is the only wifi device I've had issues with in two years in this office with the same network setup. CHIP had working wifi, Macbook, Windows laptops, Android phones, iPhones, Windows phones. Basically, this is the only device that doesn't work.
[19:26] <vfw> carbine: And it could be that the router is using an un-reliable nameserver as primary.  (But if that is the case, probably almost everyone else will have the same problem.)
[19:26] <carbine> vfw: This network is running roughly 40 machines right now, not including various personal devices.
[19:26] <ulrichard> ioria: If I log out, then the other user can login. But it is no longer possible to leave the session open.
[19:27] <ioria> ulrichard,  how may users do you have on your system ?
[19:27] <ioria> *many
[19:27] <vfw> carbine: Well, you just have look at all the settings.
[19:27] <vfw> carbine: What netmask are you getting?
[19:28] <ulrichard> ioria: two
[19:28] <ioria> ulrichard,  none of them can login via gui ? or just one ?
[19:29] <vfw> carbine: Look at the output of iwcoinfig
[19:29] <carbine> I may have fixed this...
[19:29] <ulrichard> If one is logged in, and the session is locked, the other one can not login. It doesn't matter which one.
[19:29] <carbine> One sec to let me test.
[19:29] <bnwilson> anyone help me disable ALT for unity?
[19:29] <nrclark> anybody good with lxc? I'm having some trouble getting a development flow to work
[19:29] <bnwilson> ccsm route isn't working :(
[19:30] <carbine> Nope lol
[19:30] <vfw> carbine: What did you try?
[19:30] <bnwilson> dconf read /org/compiz/integrated/show-hud == ['']
[19:30] <carbine> Well, when I stopped using custom nameservers, it worked temporarily then went back to what it was doing previously.
[19:31] <carbine> If I could get to pastebin temporarily I could get you an output of dmesg and iwconfig
[19:31] <saint_> hi all - is there any trick to install ubuntu on an ESXi server ? I tried both desktop and server, and they boot on dhcp / pxe but not the iso... i looked at the iso, and the checksum is fine .
[19:31] <vfw> !info pastebinit | carbine
[19:31] <younder> ulrichard: have you looked at this guide? http://askubuntu.com/questions/258616/how-can-i-debug-my-wireless-problem
[19:32] <carbine> vfw: Can't stay connected long enough to install packages lol
[19:32] <ulrichard> younder: I don't see the connection?
[19:33] <catbadger> Whats the most professional free video editing software in the repo? blender?
[19:33] <ioria> ulrichard,  you are at the locking screen ... and you want to switch user ?
[19:33] <carbine> iwconfig: http://pastebin.com/yNUyRx82
[19:34] <carbine> dmesg: http://pastebin.com/ggqRy0hH
[19:34] <ulrichard> ioria: exactly. This always worked before the upgrade to yakkety.
[19:34] <ioria> ulrichard,   i cannot do that on Unity, sorry
[19:35] <ioria> ulrichard,   what DE are you using ?
[19:35] <vfw> carbine: That was the output of iwconfig?
[19:36] <ulrichard> ioria: what do you mean by DE?
[19:36] <ioria> ulrichard,   gnome, unity, lxde kde, ?
[19:36] <carbine> Yes
[19:36] <carbine> I can do ifconfig as well if it will help
[19:37] <ulrichard> ioria: unity
[19:37] <younder> ioria, oh a VM
[19:37] <ioria> ulrichard,   ok, give me a sec
[19:39] <catbadger> Whats the most professional free video editing software in the repo? blender?
[19:40] <California> catbadger: isn't blender for 3D stuff? i use kdenlive for doing simple video editing.
[19:40] <ioria> ulrichard,   sorry, yes you can switch user... what happens when you select the other user ?
[19:41] <carbine_> I was apparently disconnected from IRC.
[19:41] <vfw> carbine: We chould string several things together, like:
[19:41] <vfw> { cat /etc/resolv.conf ; route -n ; ifconfig wlp8s0b1;} | pastebinit
[19:41] <ulrichard> ioria: After upgrading to yakkety the option to select another user vanished.
[19:41] <catbadger> California blender is also a NLVE
[19:42] <catbadger> and after effects-like
[19:42] <catbadger> lol
[19:42] <catbadger> I need to do more than simple editing
[19:42] <ioria> ulrichard,   but you can unlock for the current user, right ?
[19:42] <marts1> I have recently used Handbrake and Openshot.
[19:42] <ulrichard> ioria: yes
[19:42] <marts1> Handbrake to resize a video and Openshot to clip it.
[19:43] <marts1> clip it -> I mean edit cuts.
[19:43] <NUTsTUN> Would anyone be able to help me quick?
[19:44] <ioria> ulrichard,   ok, the option is still there ( https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/shell-exit.html )  but not working for you . Can you login via gui in the other user from the login scree ?
[19:44] <carbine_> vfw: Trying now
[19:44] <carbine_> I assume this will fail without connection
[19:44] <vfw> { cat /etc/resolv.conf ; route -n ; ifconfig wlp8s0b1;ping -c3 av.com;} | pastebinit
[19:45] <ulrichard> ioria: Only if I log out the current user first.
[19:45] <vfw> carbine_: Yea, it will have to happen when connection is up.
[19:45] <NUTsTUN> My Elan touchpad doesn't work on startup so I have to run the $ sudo modprobe -r elan_i2c and $ sudo modprobe elan_i2c commands for it to work
[19:45] <carbine> Hmm. Odd.
[19:46] <NUTsTUN> I've tried setting up a startup application but that doens't work
[19:46] <delarge> hi there, Im trying to set up a FTP server (vsftpd) but doesnt seems that is listening. The 'netstat -a | grep ftp' doesnt have an output. And the starting seems OK when I do the '/etc/bin/init.d/vsftpd start' http://pastebin.ca/3732833
[19:46] <vfw> NUTsTUN: Just put it in /etc/rc.local
[19:47] <carbine> vfw: http://pastebin.com/AJhneYuV
[19:47] <NUTsTUN> Put what in? A .sh file with the commands?
[19:47] <th0r> NUTsTUN, have you added those modules to /etc/modules?
[19:47] <ioria> ulrichard,  this is  an old report is your situation ?  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/950583
[19:48] <NUTsTUN> th0r: Yes
[19:49] <ulrichard> ioria: yes, the description matches.
[19:49] <NUTsTUN> vfw: Put what in? A .sh file with the commands?
[19:50] <ioria> ulrichard,  apt-cache policy lightdm | grep Installed
[19:51] <nrclark> Does anybody know how to create an LXC container from an existing filesystem?
[19:51] <bekks> NUTsTUN: just add an entry in /etc/modprode.d/ for loading your desired modules.
[19:51] <ulrichard> ioria: 1.19.5-0ubuntu1
[19:51] <NUTsTUN> bekks: I tried that already
[19:52] <bekks> NUTsTUN: And what did you put into which file?
[19:52] <ioria> ulrichard,  apt-cache policy  gnome-screensaver | grep Installed
[19:52] <ulrichard> 3.6.1-7ubuntu5
[19:53] <vfw> carbine: nameserver 127.0.1.1 ?
[19:53] <vfw> inet addr:192.168.0.120  Bcast:192.168.1.255 ?
[19:54] <vfw> I see a couple problems there.....
[19:54] <catbadger> marts1 so you like opencut?
[19:54] <catbadger> open shot i mean
[19:54] <NUTsTUN> bekks: Wait, I misread the last pathname you sent. I believe I tried adding the elan_i2c.conf to the modprobe.d/ I forgot what to put in it tho
[19:54] <ioria> ulrichard,  do you have other display manager , like gdm ?
[19:54] <carbine> Let me see what the machine I'm on says
[19:54] <bekks> NUTsTUN: the name of the module you want to modprobe.
[19:55] <vfw> NUTsTUN: Just add two lines to /etc/rc.local  (make sure it is enabled)
[19:55] <bekks> vfw: No need to.
[19:55] <mcphail> catbadger: blender is the best editor on Ubuntu at present, imho
[19:55] <vfw> bekks: Yea, I see
[19:55] <bekks> vfw: the /etc/modprobe.d/ facility is exactly designed to do that job.
[19:55] <carbine> vwf: This is on the Windows machine I'm using to talk to you on: http://pastebin.com/pyMpGPu0
[19:55] <vfw> NUTsTUN: Do as beeks said, it's a better solution.
[19:56] <ulrichard> ioria: Not that I knew of. The machine is relatively new. I freshly installed it in July, and that was the first upgrade.
[19:56] <NUTsTUN> bekks: What lines do I add to rc.local?
[19:56] <bekks> NUTsTUN: Wrong file.
[19:57] <carbine> vfw: Everything on the Ubuntu machine was set via DHCP
[19:57] <NUTsTUN> bekks: Wait, didn't you just say to modify rc.local?
[19:57] <ioria> ulrichard,   you upgraded to 16.10 from what version ? 16.04 ?
[19:57] <carbine> I could manually assing all the IPv4 stuff
[19:57] <ulrichard> ioria: yes
[19:57] <bekks> NUTsTUN: No. Read again what I told you to do.
[19:57] <ioria> ulrichard,  can you   sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
[20:00] <NUTsTUN> bekks: Ok, so I added elan_i2c.conf to modprobe.d/ and it contains "elan_i2c" without the quotes. Is that it? or should I put "-r elan_i2c" first?
[20:00] <ulrichard> ioria: It upgraded just what a simple upgrade would also do.
[20:00] <noureddine> hi every body
[20:00] <NUTsTUN> Hi
[20:00] <ioria> ulrichard,  what exactly ?
[20:02] <ulrichard> ioria: mysql-common
[20:02] <ioria> ok
[20:02] <carbine> vfw: The odd thing is that the DHCP settings allow me to get to websites occassionally.
[20:02] <docmur> I'm trying to setup a DHCP server on my server, I have the DHCP server configured to hand out addresses, the problem I'm running into is that when I bridge to a port from eth2: http://pastebin.com/4aE3rmE0, the interface I bridge to, stops working
[20:03] <ioria> ulrichard,  try sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
[20:05] <ulrichard> ioria: It ececuted without a message. But after Super+L  there is still no list. Would I have to log out or reboot to see an effect?
[20:05] <ioria> ulrichard,  maybe :(
[20:05] <ioria> ulrichard,  what you mean without a message ?
[20:05] <Tortillion> Hello!
[20:06] <ioria> ulrichard,  yiou should see a menu
[20:06] <Tortillion> Is this the right place to get help?
[20:06] <ulrichard> ioria: there was no menu, I was back at the prompt immediately.
[20:06] <bekks> Tortillion: help with ubuntu? yes.
[20:07] <Tortillion> Well, I have this old laptop whichhad XP on it.
[20:07] <ioria> ulrichard,  ok, try reboot but i'am pessimistic
[20:07] <Tortillion> Dell Lattitude D800
[20:08] <Tortillion> And I wanted to get Lubuntu on it.
[20:08] <ulrichard> ioria: I also don't get the menu on the other machine that still runs 16.04.
[20:08] <Tortillion> So I burn the CD
[20:08] <ioria> ulrichard,  yeash, my mistake
[20:08] <Tortillion> When I put it in,it says theres a problwm with PAE
[20:09] <ioria> ulrichard,  it means you don't have other DM
[20:09] <Tortillion> So I force PAE, and it works
[20:09] <Guest21473> how i can install nautilus file manger on linux mint cinnamon 18
[20:09] <bekks> Tortillion: So you already have a solution.
[20:09] <Tortillion> Then, I click try lubuntu
[20:09] <Tortillion> Wait
[20:09] <Tortillion> Thwn I intall it
[20:09] <Tortillion> The problem is
[20:10] <Tortillion> It failed to install GRUB
[20:10] <bekks> Tortillion: please dont use enter that often.
[20:10] <ktosiek> what's the last nginx USN about?
[20:10] <ioria> ulrichard,  could be a VM issue
[20:10] <ktosiek> can't find any specifics, is that really an RCE?
[20:11] <Tortillion> Oh sorry. Anyway, it doesn't connect to thw internet, even though the internet worked on xp.. Maybe that ia why GRUb didnt install
[20:11] <ktosiek> asking here, as I'm not invited to #ubuntu-security :-)
[20:11] <bekks> Tortillion: grub doesnt need internet for being installed.
[20:11] <Tortillion> Thats the strange part.
[20:11] <ioria> ulrichard, you can try to boot a previous kernel if you still have one
[20:12] <Tortillion> I try to install GRUB at the terminal but it says cannot  reach the website.
[20:13] <ulrichard> ioria: I will try. But can't right now. Thanks for looking into the issue.
[20:13] <ioria> ulrichard, no problem, good luck
[20:13] <alkisg> Tortillion: are you trying `apt-get install grub-pc`, or `dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc`? You can't use apt-get install if you have no internet access.
[20:13] <Bashing-om> Tortillion: Netweoking; wired or wireless ??
[20:13] <bekks> Tortillion: can you pastebin the entire output including the command you are using?
[20:13] <Tortillion> I tried both.
[20:13] <bobek> hi need help with Double Commander, drag and drop to another app not working
[20:14] <Tortillion> I will.
[20:14] <bekks> Tortillion: if your box doesnt have internet connect and you are using apt-get/apt for installing a package, it cannot be installed due to the missing interbet connection.
[20:14] <bobek> anybody to help^^
[20:14] <alkisg> Tortillion: also, if the pc doesn't have grub, it won't boot; if it doesn't boot, where are you running those commands?
[20:14] <bekks> Tortillion: from a cd install, you dont need internet at all for installing a base system including grub.
[20:14] <Tortillion> CD
[20:15] <mooj> x-forwarding gnome-session?! its almost working...
[20:15] <Tortillion> I clicked try Lubuntu so I had the Termina
[20:15] <bekks> Tortillion: and then you tried to install grub into the cd?
[20:15] <Tortillion> No, I put in a boot repair CD
[20:15] <Tortillion> But it says connect to internet for that
[20:16] <alkisg> Tortillion: what's the output of: lspci -nn -k | grep -A 2 Ethernet
[20:16] <alkisg> It will show your network card and the driver
[20:16] <bekks> Tortillion: So thats not an Ubuntu cd?
[20:16] <Tortillion> First I tried lubuntu cd but it sidnt work
[20:17] <bekks> Tortillion: so the answer to my question is "no" - correct?
[20:17] <Tortillion> Yes
[20:17] <Shatojon> Hello. I just setup vsftpd - I launched it, created a user and created a password for it. Logged in through Filezilla great. Issue is I can't figure out where the directory is? I was never required to enter a directory or anything of the sort. So I don't know where that user is uploading files right now.
[20:17] <Tortillion> Ok the command lspci
[20:18] <bekks> Shatojon: when entering / as the remote directory, what are the first three entries you can see in the list?
[20:18] <Tortillion> Says broadxom corporation netxtreme bcm5705m gigabit
[20:20] <Shatojon> Hey bekks  - I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean "entering / as the remote directory".
[20:20] <Shatojon> I'm very new to Linux, doing this to learn :)
[20:20] <bekks> Shatojon: you are using filezilla. Enter / as the remote path on the right pane.
[20:21] <alkisg> Tortillion: if you run dmesg, do you see a message about firmware for broadcom missing?
[20:21] <Shatojon> Ahh I found it, thank you bekks !!
[20:21] <Shatojon> It was /home/<username>
[20:22] <Tortillion> Let me check. Thanks for helping me by the way.
[20:22] <Shatojon> Would you happen to know how I can change that, bekks? I'd like that user to be logged in to /usr/local/nginx/html
[20:22] <bekks> Shatojon: then you would need to change the home directory of that user.
[20:23] <bobek> hi need help with Double Commander, drag and drop to another app not working
[20:23] <Shatojon> Could you teach me how to do that, bekks ?
[20:23] <Tortillion> When I input dmesg it gives me a lot of information.
[20:24] <bekks> Shatojon: sudo usermod  -d new_home_dir  username
[20:24] <Shatojon> Is "usermod" the command?
[20:24] <Shatojon> Is usermod a command specifically for vsftpd? How does Linux know that I'm trying to use that command on vsftpd as opposed to any other app I have installed?
[20:24] <Tortillion> Ther are some lines that say firmare not found
[20:24] <bekks> Shatojon: no, the command is [~chatter@95.175.159.250] has joined
[20:24] <bekks> Shatojon: it is a command to be entered in a terminal.
[20:25] <bekks> Shatojon: It changes the home directory of a user, and it has nothing to do with vsftpd.
[20:25] <Shatojon> The FTP server is actually creating new users on the computer, bekks ?
[20:26] <Shatojon> It's not simply allowing users to upload/download files from the computer thanks to a user/pass system?
[20:26] <alkisg> Tortillion: you need to download those files and put them in /lib/firmware in order for your network to work
[20:27] <Tortillion> I see.
[20:27] <Shatojon> bekks:  I just realised that "sudo useradd" is actually nothing to do with vsftpd.
[20:27] <Shatojon> Sorry! That actually explains a lot. Thank you :)
[20:28] <Tortillion> Also, using dpkg reconfigure grub-pc says package grub pc is not installed
[20:29] <alkisg> Tortillion: you are on the rescue cd, we don't even know which distribution that is, of course there's no grub there, it probably boots with isolinux
[20:30] <Tortillion> Now I am on Lubuntu
[20:30] <alkisg> Tortillion: it's possible (I've seen it) that an ubuntu 12.04 live cd does contain the firmware and sees internet; that way you'll be able to chroot and install whatever you like
[20:30] <MonkeyDust> Tortillion  what's the output of    cat /etc/issue
[20:31] <Tortillion> Cat
[20:31] <MonkeyDust> Tortillion  in a terminal
[20:32] <Tortillion> Sprry abput that its hard tp type on this tablet
[20:32] <Tortillion> Ok. Says
[20:32] <Tortillion> No such file or directory.
[20:32] <Shatojon> Hey bekks  - attempting sudo usermod -d /usr/local/nginx/html karl echoed: "usermod: user karl is currently used by process 11862".
[20:33] <bekks> Shatojon: so log out every instance of that user.
[20:33] <Shatojon> I'm not sure how to do that, bekks
[20:34] <bekks> Shatojon: close all programs, log out the user.
[20:34] <Shatojon> I don't know how to log out the user - is there a command for that?
[20:34] <bekks> Shatojon: Is "karl" your regular user?
[20:34] <Shatojon> Nope.
[20:34] <Shatojon> I created him when setting up the FTP.
[20:34] <bekks> Shatojon: So close filezilla.
[20:35] <Shatojon> Ahh ok.
[20:36] <Shatojon> Sorry for all the questions bekks, I really appreciate the help.
[20:36] <Shatojon> I restarted the computer the web server and FTP are hosted on and can no longer connect via Filezilla, is that normal?
[20:36] <Shatojon> Does the service not start automatically?
[20:37] <bekks> Shatojon: Depends on how you installed and configured it.
[20:37] <Shatojon> Hmm, I used this guide; http://www.krizna.com/ubuntu/setup-ftp-server-on-ubuntu-14-04-vsftpd/
[20:37] <Shatojon> Oddly enough, I just did sudo service vsftpd restart
[20:37] <Shatojon> But I still can't connect to it
[20:37] <Shatojon> Filezilla insists that Error:	Network error: Software caused connection abort Error:	Could not connect to server
[20:38] <bekks> Shatojon: So start the vsftpd service?
[20:38] <Shatojon> I did, I typed "sudo service vsftpd restart"
[20:38] <bekks> Shatojon: thats RESTARTING, not STARTING.
[20:38] <Shatojon> Ahh, sorry.
[20:38] <Shatojon> Is it just sudo service vsftpd start ?
[20:39] <Shatojon> Oh it worked
[20:39] <Shatojon> But on port 21, I'm very confused now.
[20:39] <Shatojon> Before restarting I was connecting on port 22.
[20:39] <Shatojon> Because I followed the second part of the tutorial that said it wasn't secure and to set it up and whatnot ( Please note using ftp on port 21 is a big security risk . it’s highly recommended to use SFTP. Please continue for SFTP configuration  Secure FTP ( SFTP ) )
[20:39] <bekks> Shatojon: FTP always works on port 21. SSH works on port 22.
[20:40] <Shatojon> Ok, I understand. I thought that by doing all this stuff, I had disabled FTP and only allowed SSH ( http://i.imgur.com/pQYhCWC.png )
[20:40] <Shatojon> So now I'm not sure I understand what following the second part of that guide actually did.
[20:42] <Random832> Shatojon: which "second part"? The steps are numbered 7-10
[20:43] <Random832> anyway, sftp is a completely separate system from ftp. you can just uninstall vsftpd (which despite the name has nothing to do with sftp)
[20:43] <Shatojon> Yes, 7 to 10
[20:43] <Shatojon> I followed the steps 7 to 10.
[20:43] <Shatojon> Then I restarted the computer this is all hosted on
[20:43] <Shatojon> Once it was back up, I did sudo service vsftpd start
[20:44] <Shatojon> And now I can't connect with port 22, I have to put 21, which defeats the purpose of steps 7-10 I thought?
[20:44] <Random832> 22 is SSH (which includes SFTP), 21 is FTP (which has nothing to do with SFTP)
[20:44] <Random832> you might have to change the protocol type in filezilla, not just the port number
[20:50] <lm_3> Hi there, any suggestions for a good, mostly 100% compatible, works-out-of-the-box laptop that is not the dell xps developer edition? thanks
[20:51] <nicomachus> lm_3: check out System76
[20:53] <lm_3> nicomachus: do you work there or are you simply a happy customer ? :)
[20:54] <nicomachus> lm_3: have just heard a lot about them. possibly a future customer. definitely don't work there.
[20:54] <lm_3> ok thanks
[20:54] <nicomachus> They are very well known. Check out reviews online or something.
[20:54] <wafflejock> lm_3, I'm a mostly happy customer, have a laptop from them that has been good through 12.04 and 14.04 with 16.04 I have some graphics issues with the Intel HD4000 HDMI for whatever reason (I've gone to some lengths to figure out what's going on but no fix so far)
[20:54] <wafflejock> in terms of getting something that works without a lot of fiddling required they are legit
[20:57] <Shatojon> At the moment, ftp users can create and delete, but not append. Any idea how to give them that permission?
[20:57] <younder> wafflejock,  well standarh hardware is the simplest path
[20:58] <wafflejock> younder, not sure what you mean by that exactly? mostly problems I've encountered with linux have been around wifi or graphics drivers, a lot of that has improved the last few years I've been actively using Ubuntu but still some problem chipsets
[21:00] <lm_3> I'm asking for a university professor, and she does not have the patience to deal with compatibility issues that is all
[21:00] <younder> wafflejock,  ubuntu has been adopted as a standard exactly because it 'like debian' has great hardware support. Ubutu is a bit more minimalistice and has a more secure setup by default.
[21:00] <younder> minimalistic
[21:00] <lm_3> she requested specifically ubuntu, and preferably lenovo or ubuntu
[21:01] <lm_3> *lenovo or dell
[21:01] <wafflejock> hehe was waiting for the correction :)
[21:01] <lm_3> but it seems lenovo does not ship ubuntu out of the box anymore
[21:02] <lm_3> the dell developer edition seems nice, but overpriced
[21:02] <lm_3> http://www.dell.com/ca/business/p/laptops?~ck=mn#!facets=16260~0~195640&p=1 for the curious
[21:02] <younder> lm_3, Few companies do. There is a parnoanoia in the buisness world for things free.
[21:02] <wafflejock> lm_3, yeah if you check out the wifi chipset and the graphics chipset in terms of compatibility/issues that's where I believe most of the problems live, I have a desktop from 2008 that's still doing great though, I did buy a PCI wifi card for it at some point but did the research first to be sure I wouldn't have to fuss with it
[21:03] <lm_3> I want it to be able to hibernate, which is more difficult to ascertain
[21:04] <logikos> if I want a local dev workstation is it better to start with ubuntu server and install xfce or to start with xubuntu and install lamp
[21:04] <younder> lm_3, I know I keeps my systems avive 24-7. Hybernate seems to be problematic on some systems
[21:05] <Shatojon> Thank you for the help, have a good evening everyone!
[21:05] <wafflejock> lm_3, can't say I've seen a lot of hibernation issues but my computers are typically full on or full off or maybe in sleep for a few minutes here or there
[21:05] <bekks> logikos: Doesnt matter actually. I'd start with a desktop environment.
[21:05] <logikos> I realize what I want can be acomplished either way ... but my gut tells me that if i start with xubuntu i'll get better driver support for various display adapters etc
[21:05] <bekks> logikos: The driver support is exactly the same in both cases.
[21:05] <logikos> bekks, thanks
[21:05] <younder> logikos, Ubuntu pretty much supports ALL harware vendors.
[21:07] <younder> logikos, Some require a bit of tweakin (atheros wifi comes to mind)
[21:08] <lm_3> I would be curious what you guys think about the dell xps. is 1900 $CAD an acceptable price for a Intel i7, 8gb memory 256gb ssd laptop?
[21:08] <logikos> younder, yeah .. last laptop I had the built in wifi would work but couldnt get more than 1mbps down for whatever reason when running ubuntu .. windows (before i formated the drive) it worked fine .. not sure if that was a atheros adapter or not...
[21:08] <nicomachus> lm_3: that's really a better question for ##hardware
[21:08] <mewecoffee> wafflejock: yeah I cant get my dual boot win10/ubuntu 16.04 desktop to hibernate properly (on ubuntu side) most of the time it works, but randomly, 10 to 15 seconds afterwards it will just turn itself back, and itll automatically go back into hibernation after idle period passes, but its pushed me to only hibernating in windows
[21:08] <younder> As ususal the more you step of the mainline the more problems you will have.
[21:13] <younder> logicos: Linux can require a bit of 'stick with it' ness. If I F*** with it long enouh, I can usually get it to work
[21:13] <wafflejock> mewecoffee, gotcha yeah have definitely heard of problems with it between windows and linux with how things "go to sleep" typically just running Windows in a VM myself now but have a few systems that can dual boot if I need native windows for something
[21:14] <lm_3> nicomachus: there is a hardware specific irc channel?
[21:15] <younder> wafflejock, I have heard sad stries of people that have tried to install Linux first and THEN windows.  It can ben done. but it is, as far as I understand,tricky
[21:15] <wafflejock> lm_3, really depends on details of the processor, prices of i7 can vary a ton depending on clock speed and generation/architecture of the chips
[21:15] <wafflejock> younder, yeah windows wipes out the boot loader as far as I know then have to go through live usb repair of grub... not too terrible but not something you want to do first time installing an OS
[21:16] <younder> lm_3, fuh #hardware
[21:16] <lm_3> wafflejock: http://www.dell.com/ca/business/p/xps-13-9360-laptop/pd?oc=cax13ubuntuh5161ca&model_id=xps-13-9360-laptop
[21:17] <wafflejock> lm_3, ah yeah it's a pretty crazy high end i7
[21:17] <lm_3> younder: I mean, it is not specific to ubuntu right
[21:18] <younder> lm_3, nop
[21:18] <younder> lm_3, hardware never is
[21:18] <wafflejock> lm_3, usually you'll see clock speeds anywhere from 2.66GHz up to 3.6GHz or so (maybe a bit higher on the extreme also extreme edition ones have up to 10cores I've seen on a single processor but cost $1000+ for the processor alone
[21:19] <wafflejock> yeah $1649 for the extreme edition :P craziness, but if you google i7 7th generation around the same clock speed and cache you'll get an idea of what the processor itself costs, but laptops area always more for the design/convenience too
[21:20] <younder> wafflejock, I'd start with a I5. That has enogh power. Unless you are a developer.
[21:20] <wafflejock> yeah i7 is going to drain battery more too I think higher wattage on those typically
[21:21] <lm_3> if you guys vouch for system76 I might go with that, if it is indeed reliable it seems to be an obvious choice
[21:21] <younder> wafflejock, I get 8 hrs.
[21:21] <slee> hi, i see the latest gfx card drivers for nvidia is "Releases: beta: 375.10, official: 370.28", but the ubuntu repos only have the latest at 341.42, any idea when they'll update?
[21:22] <slee> oops, 361.42
[21:22] <younder> slee: the NVIDIA webcite
[21:22] <wafflejock> younder, with an i7?
[21:22] <Crystax> hello
[21:22] <younder> wafflejock, I 5
[21:23] <wafflejock> younder, ah okay yeah still impressive but was gonna say mine sucks down batteries in a couple of hours unless I'm being really light on the system (dimmed down and all)
[21:23] <Crystax> i got  NEWBIE question yeah i know i am noob  i need to encrypt some sensitive data for one of my customer
[21:23] <lm_3> the oryx pro is very sexy
[21:23] <Crystax> got a prog to counsil me
[21:23] <ldumont> Hey guys, is there anything particular about installing Ubuntu on a dual boot setup where the Ubuntu partition is on the second disk (GPT format). The first disk holds Windows in a MBR format.
[21:23] <Crystax> ldumont sry never try this one
[21:24] <lm_3> anyways, thank you all for your help
[21:24] <wafflejock> lm_3, have fun computer shopping :) good luck
[21:24] <younder> Crystax, quickc
[21:25] <Crystax> thank
[21:25] <Crystax> so hard to insure some privacy today
[21:25] <EriC^^> ldumont: use a bios-boot partition on the gpt one and install grub there and have the bios boot it
[21:25] <younder> Crystax, scratch that
[21:26] <Crystax> so sudo apt-get quickc
[21:26] <ldumont> So Grub should be installed on the second GPT disk?
[21:26] <EriC^^> ldumont: would be better
[21:26] <younder> Crystax, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome
[21:27] <ldumont> Alright, I'm going to try! Thanks
[21:28] <younder> Crystax, you also wan't a erase fasillity if you wan't to encrypt individual files
[21:30] <Crystax> got a weblink so i can read about it i am still pretty noob 20 year without having the right to be in same room that computer      last computer was a a pentium one  i still remenber basic  getting use to gnome and linux
[21:30] <Crystax> i ear there a game to learn gnome
[21:33] <afl456> Is 16.10 working well, time to move up from 16.04 yet?
[21:33] <Crystax> thank i find the link     your a savor  younder
[21:35] <Crystax> younder i got diff to find quickc
[21:35] <wafflejock> afl456, can see the known issues here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YakketyYak/ReleaseNotes to see if those may effect you, personally haven't tried but it's released and have heard mostly positive things from the little bit I've heard
[21:36] <afl456> @wafflejock I'm a bit hesitant after the last upgrade borked a heap of my php/mysql dev sites.
[21:37] <wafflejock> afl456, yeah personally I stay on LTS most of the time unless something is fixed that is causing me problems on the LTS
[21:37] <funabashi> ist possible to move a process to my screen session ?
[21:39] <cigara> hey all, does anyone has experience with compton? im having difficulties changing some animations..
[21:42] <tomreyn> funabashi: http://serverfault.com/questions/55880/moving-an-already-running-process-to-screen
[21:43] <wafflejock> afl456, always good to have a backup before potentially breaking changes but also you may want to check this out https://puphpet.com/ nice for making Vagrant setups and you can store your dumped SQL structure with your projects and have it load the sql in when it's starting up/provisioning
[21:43] <tomreyn> !info reptyr
[21:43] <tomreyn> funabashi: ^
[21:44] <funabashi> tomreyn: danke
[21:44] <tomreyn> welcome
[21:46] <joltman> Hey!  I've got a 14.04 x64 server VM running.  I've run apt-get update and dist-upgrade, but I'm not getting past kernel 3.13.0-98-generic.  I thought I should have gotten a kernel above 3.13.0-100-generic.  Is anyone able to assist?  Or am I wrong that the -100 kernel isn't available yet?  Thanks!
[21:48] <wafflejock> joltman, appears to be released http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/linux-image-3.13.0-100-generic you try a, apt-cache show linux-image-generic
[21:50] <tomreyn> joltman: 3.13.0.99.107 was released on oct 12 according to http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/l/linux-meta/linux-meta_3.13.0.100.108/changelog
[21:50] <tomreyn> joltman: are any warnings or error messages reported by "sudo apt-get update"?
[21:51] <ubuntu> Hello, anybody out there?
[21:51] <joltman> The Apt-Cache command shows -100
[21:51] <joltman> tomreyn, i haven't seen any errors...lemme try again
[21:51] <younder> ubuntu: 1764 users ;)
[21:52] <Guest14275> :)
[21:53] <tomreyn> joltman: you're welcome to show the output of "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-cache policy; sudo apt-get -fV install; sudo apt-get -V dist-upgrade" (you can cancel the upgrade once it prompts if you don't want to instll patches now)
[21:53] <joltman> i see lots of hits and gets
[21:53] <joltman> and about 6 IGN
[21:54] <tomreyn> !pastebin | joltman
[21:54] <Khar00f> Good evening everyone
[21:54] <joltman> http://pastebin.com/LM85Hqmg
[21:57] <tomreyn> hi Khar00f
[21:57] <joltman> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23381047/
[21:59] <joltman> tomreyn, i tried that long update. apt-cache-policy -fv install command
[21:59] <joltman> 0 updated
[21:59] <Khar00f> I have a question for anyone that feels like answering, i'm trying to setup my SMB server the shares are all done but i can't access them from windows
[21:59] <Khar00f> i think it has to do with user permissions, the folder permissions are good
[21:59] <tomreyn> joltman: "apt-cache-policy -fv install" is not a command i provided
[22:00] <Khar00f> does the smb server have it's own set of users or does it use the system users?
[22:00] <joltman> sudo apt-cache policy was the command
[22:00] <tomreyn> joltman: and the output you put on pastebin is not that of the commands i provided
[22:01] <joltman> wafflejock was the one who asked me to run the apt-cache show linux-image-generic  sorry tomreyn !
[22:01] <tomreyn> np

[22:03] <chubinou> Hi, I recently upgraded my (k)ubuntu to 16.10, and since, my screen is flashing/flickering. I already tried to downgrade my kernel or my video driver without any results. has anyone experienced something like this?
[22:04] <kicksled> Khar00f: easiest way is to make a new group called smbusers or something like that, add the users you want to have access in that group and then add the line "valid users = @smbusers" without " " in your smb.conf
[22:05] <Khar00f> hehehe
[22:05] <Khar00f> thank you kicksled
[22:05] <Khar00f> so basically smb can use the existing system users but you have to tell it to
[22:05] <kicksled> Khar00f: in the shares you want the users to have access to. and add the line "guest = no" also. if you want everyone to have access you can just add "guest = yes" and "force user = nobody" to the shares in smb.conf
[22:05] <Khar00f> it doesn't look there by default
[22:05] <kicksled> yeah
[22:05] <kicksled> thats how I set up my smb shares at least
[22:06] <Khar00f> i only want authenticated users to have access to the shares
[22:06] <Khar00f> makes sense
[22:06] <kicksled> Khar00f: btw, its "guest ok = no/yes" not "guest = no/yes" as I stated, forgot that ok :p
[22:07] <Khar00f> yup, that part i set already
[22:07] <Khar00f> :)
[22:07] <kicksled> hope you get it working :)
[22:07] <kicksled> restart the smbd after editing
[22:08] <Khar00f> kicksled: where were you yesterday :)
[22:08] <Khar00f> you're my saving grace :)
[22:08] <Khar00f> than you sir
[22:08] <Khar00f> one last question
[22:09] <Khar00f> is there a default group that every user is part of when they're created?
[22:09] <joltman> ok, i guess i'm out of luck for a kernel update, unless i move to the xenial kernel?
[22:09] <bekks> Khar00f: no.
[22:10] <Khar00f> thanks bekks
[22:13] <wafflejock> joltman, are you sure you didn't get it previously but just haven't rebooted into it yet? just a last guess I didn't see all the details above
[22:14] <joltman> wafflejock, i'll give it a shot now.
[22:14] <joltman> but...
[22:14] <joltman> that is a possibility!  I'd feel super dumb if that's the case
[22:15] <GreenObsession> kidd on fire in #DataHoarder breaking it down large style #DataHoarder
[22:19] <joltman> wafflejock, whelp...i'm an idiot
[22:19] <joltman> lol
[22:19] <joltman> i'm on the patched kernel
[22:19] <joltman> sorry for the noise, all.
[22:19] <wafflejock> joltman, heh well glad it was something simple and not something crazy, happens to me all the time
[22:20] <joltman> tomreyn, and sorry for wasting your time too
[22:22] <slee> hi, i've asked in #nvidia, but no reply yet, thought i'd ask around...does anyone know of a possible setting in the nvidia xserver settings that can be causing textures in a game to not load? i'm now on the latest driver 370.28(xubuntu/gtx 750ti)everything in the game works fine except textures not loading, a screenshot of game: http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1477421018.png
[22:24] <wafflejock> chubinou, what did you upgrade from?
[22:24] <kicksled> Khar00f: glad to help. let me know when you tested it and if you got things working :)
[22:24] <wafflejock> chubinou, also what kind of graphics card/chipset?
[22:24] <arooni> whats the best way to share an external hard drive connected to my mac mini with other (or specific) devices on my network? (in this case, my ubuntu laptop)
[22:25] <slee> samba?
[22:25] <wafflejock> arooni, I usually just like to use ssh/scp sometimes have used rsync but not often if it's just moving a few files
[22:26] <arooni> wafflejock: its mainly for setting it up as something i can see in file manager; i want to be albe to save partial/completed files from transmission
[22:26] <wafflejock> arooni, maybe also consider nfs or sshfs (I've only used the former)
[22:27] <arooni> hmmm
[22:27] <arooni> what about sharing over SMB?
[22:27] <wafflejock> arooni, with nfs at least you can have it just mount automatically then shows up in the browsers
[22:27] <abhishek> hi
[22:27] <abhishek> how do I know which nvidia I need to install?
[22:28] <him-cesjf> Hello, I am running Kubuntu 16.10 on a Dell laptop. For some reason, the OS hangs/responds very slowly in between while typing or switching tasks or while doing any work. During this hang/slow behaviour, I notice the fan revving in high speed, delay in typing, network disconnection and  stuck digital clock seconds counter which restores to normal after the lag subsides but occurs every 10 seconds or so lasting for about 3-4 seconds. Is this a
[22:28] <him-cesjf> kernel issue? How can I determine what is causing this?
[22:28] <wafflejock> arooni, it's an option but if I'm just dealing with linux to linux (or os x in your case) from what I've heard and experienced NFS tends to get the best performance
[22:29] <arooni> gotcha
[22:29] <arooni> wafflejock: do i need some software to set up nfs on the mac and ubuntu side?
[22:31] <wafflejock> !info nfs-kernel-server
[22:32] <Khar00f> kicksled: didn't work, there was a group called samabshare in the group list, i added the users in that group, and i added the group under "valid users = @sambashare" restarted witht his command "sudo systemctl restart smbd.service nmbd.service" tried to login with windows, still asks for username and password
[22:33] <Khar00f> i'm leaving for a few, i'll be back later, but if you answer me i'll scroll up and see your answer, thanks again
[22:33] <wafflejock> arooni, http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/apple-mac-osx-nfs-mount-command-tutorial/ << appears mac side wouldn't need anything   this explains the ubuntu side of the setup https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo
[22:39] <ControlledKaoz> Hello.
[22:40] <ControlledKaoz> I have a question. What is the difference between 16.10 and 16.0.4 LTS Ubuntu?
[22:40] <wafflejock> ControlledKaoz, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YakketyYak/ReleaseNotes
[22:41] <wafflejock> ControlledKaoz, are you asking what LTS is or just what the differences are? the link should answer the second one
[22:41] <ControlledKaoz> Well, I am trying to figure out which is the "better" of the two or the most stable. Is LTS similar to a pre release?
[22:42] <tomreyn> !lts | ControlledKaoz
[22:43] <tomreyn> those without "lts" have short support, less thana year
[22:43] <wafflejock> ControlledKaoz, LTS is stable and gets updates for longer
[22:43] <ControlledKaoz> Thank you, that is exactly what I was looking for.
[22:43] <wafflejock> ControlledKaoz, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases helps too

[22:54] <abhishek> I am getting this on upgrading http://paste.ubuntu.com/23381233/
[22:55] <abhishek> why does being held back mean?
[22:57] <shadoxx> abhishek: it means that there's an update available for the package specific, but for other reason (ie, version pinning with apt), it won't be upgraded. it's being "held back" at it's current version
[22:57] <shadoxx> abhishek: try 'apt-get autoremove && apt-get update -y'
[23:00] <xdarkice481x> hey

[23:04] <Chunkyz> sorry to ask such a noob question. if I want to use ubuntu WITHOUT a DE but use a window manager like i3-wm, can I use the netboot image and only install what I want?
[23:05] <kicksled> Khar00f: yeah, what happens when you enter a valid username and password in windows? do you want everyone to be able to access share without any username?
[23:06] <wafflejock> Chunkyz, not sure about netboot but the minimal install instructions here may help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems
[23:06] <abhishek> shadoxx, hi it shows this still http://paste.ubuntu.com/23381307/
[23:07] <Chunkyz> thanks wafflejock
[23:08] <kicksled> Khar00f: see http://pastebin.com/48RD2RQ6 for an example of how I've set up my shares in smb.conf

[23:18] <jerry> hi
[23:18] <docmur> I setup my ubuntu server to act as a DHCP server.  I setup an interface in /etc/network/interface, called br1, the problem is when I bridge it to the other interfaces, those IP's stop working for access and when I tie it to eth1, well my VM's can ping the DHCP server, no traffic can go out, this is my /etc/dhcp/dhcpd file: http://pastebin.com/M5kmhLVj  this is my interface file:
[23:18] <docmur> http://pastebin.com/9a4UGNM4 and this is my ip route list: http://pastebin.com/UGV1nXMw
[23:19] <Steamcentral> It doesn't recognize it at all. Manual says it should support Linux Kernel 3.3-3.5. I'm running 4.4.
[23:19] <lordcirth_> Steamcentral, anything in dmesg when you plug it in?
[23:19] <abhishek> I am getting this on upgrading http://paste.ubuntu.com/23381233/ why does it show neon-desktop is held back?
[23:21] <wafflejock> him-cesjf, have you tried checking what's going on in the system monitor or htop or top
[23:21] <Steamcentral> Yes it is lordcirth_
[23:22] <kicksled> docmur: do you have the correct interface in /etc/default/ics-dhcp-server?
[23:24] <docmur> I've never set that before, would it make a difference?
[23:25] <kicksled> if I remember correctly you should set the interface that you want to lease addresses on in that file docmur
[23:25] <Steamcentral> It's showing up in dmesg but won't load lordcirth_
[23:26] <kicksled> but been years since I set up an dhcp server, so I could be wrong docmur. But I found some links mentioning it also on askubuntu, so could be worth a try
[23:26] <docmur> Well I just made the change
[23:26] <docmur> I'll see if it works in a second
[23:26] <kicksled> restart dhcp server after change
[23:29] <kicksled> docmur: you could also try adding "bridge_ports eth0 eth1" in the br1 options in your interface file if it still don't work
[23:30] <docmur> Every time I add the birdge ports line, I lose the ability to connect via ssh to those addresses, which matters because one of them is the external IP of the system
[23:30] <kicksled> ah, I see
[23:32] <ksdfksd> Anyone alive?
[23:38] <kicksled> docmur: with the ssh issues, check your sshd.conf and see if there is any ListenAddress statements, if so comment out. you could also add "up /etc/init.d/ssh restart" as a last line in the brctl block in your interface file. that has solved the issue for other people with that isse of not be able to connect via ssh with the bridge_ports line
[23:39] <ootani> こんにちは
[23:39] <phenom> How do you enable autologin on xubuntu? 16.04
[23:39] <ootani> i'm using 16.10
[23:39] <hungry> i am not aware of any way to do that phenom
[23:40] <phenom> When there is a will.
[23:40] <docmur> Well now I'm in the VM, it can ping the gateway / DHCP Server 192.168.1.1, it has the ip route http://pastebin.com/GjyEhPpy and I have the nameserver set to 192.168.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 but it can't reach the net
[23:40] <hungry> absolutely
[23:42] <kicksled> docmur: firewall rules that needs to be updated perhaps?
[23:43] <docmur> I made sure to disable ufw on both, new server, doesn't need it active right now
[23:45] <docmur> Could it be a route problem on the host?
[23:47] <kicksled> docmur: open /etc/sysctl.conf and uncomment the line "net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1"
[23:49] <docmur> Did that, still not working
[23:53] <kicksled> docmur: and add "iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE" and "iptables -A FORWARD -i br0 -o eth0 -j ACCEPT" to your /etc/rc.local file
[23:54] <kicksled> docmur: and reboot
[23:55] <docmur> That did it :)
[23:55] <docmur> Thanks!
[23:56] <kicksled> great, no problem :)
