Task Manager shows 119 and freem-m used + shared = 119 [00:12] xubuntu is beter than kubuntu [00:12] better [00:16] Hello [00:17] I am a new user of Ubuntu mate [00:18] and I was trying to install megadownloader [00:18] but I got the message that python-central dependencies are missing or something like that :P [00:19] !info megadownloader [00:19] Package megadownloader does not exist in yakkety === kicksled_ is now known as leavd [00:19] usuario_: ^^ details . [00:20] Que es leavd?? === leavd is now known as kicksled [00:21] So, trying to install megadownloader on ubuntu mate is useless?? [00:22] usuario_: What is megadownloader? [00:22] usuario_: We have no details to advise .. How are you attempting to install and on what release ? [00:24] megadownloader is a download manager like Jdownloader [00:24] but works better with Mega site [00:26] hii all [00:26] I downloaded a deb package [00:27] megadownloader-0.4.deb [00:27] Hi laheeb [00:29] so, I used synaptic to install it but got an error message regarding python central === Hiz is now known as Guest11082 === Guest11082 is now known as Hiz [00:34] So... [00:37] usuario_: It looks like python-central last appeared in Precise (12.04). [00:37] hummm [00:38] usuario_: Unfortunately, 12.04 is due to die off early next year. [00:39] usuario_: It looks like there's a megatools package. It's command-line only, though. [00:40] usuario_: If you want the megatools package, just open a terminal, and run `sudo apt update; sudo apt install megatools` [00:40] what is megatools? === andyhuzhill1 is now known as andyhuzhill [00:40] usuario_: It's a command line program for accessing Mega. You can download with it. [00:41] !info megatools [00:41] megatools (source: megatools): Command-line client for the Mega cloud storage service. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.9.97-1 (yakkety), package size 105 kB, installed size 319 kB [00:42] so, all downloads should managed by terminal? [00:42] usuario_: If you use megatools, yes. [00:43] ok [00:46] thanks for the advice [00:53] successfully installed megatools.

[01:31] nedved: I could give an advice here. But I think that would be very illegal. [01:31] r? [01:32] Wulf: :-/ [01:33] Wulf: I have no idea how to navigate through lynx but if it is terminal only I would assume it would work because all other web access works in the terminal [01:33] https://ibin.co/2zySlxhaGDAL.png - no sound!! please help [01:34] Bray90820: so web browser is not the problem. Must be a GUI thing :) [01:34] Bray90820: what happens if you open e.g. libreoffice? [01:34] Bray90820 did you try chromium with --disable-gpu --no-experiments ? [01:35] !sound | nedved [01:35] nedved: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. [01:35] Bray90820 you can add those in /etc/chromium-browser/default under CHROMIUM_FLAGS [01:35] Wulf: The reason I don't think it's a gui issue is because firefox and chrome both work if I use the usb wifi card I have [01:36] Bray90820: lynx https://www.google.com/ [01:36] Bray90820: you can use cursor keys and return etc. to move around [01:37] Also the tablet just crashed when trying to load the software center [01:38] Bray90820 if you have a phone you can ssh in your box (android Termux or ConnectBot) and issue a "dmesg -wH" to see the last logs maybe [01:38] that is if your network works ofc [01:39] de-facto: I can't ssh after it crashes but I could just leave it running on top and show you what happened when it crashes [01:39] you cant access ttys anymore to get more info about the crash reason? [01:40] Not after it freezes [01:40] When it freezes it's a complete kernel panic [01:43] I have a bunch of files like this gORCLRF.jpeg.txt Kk96zTh.jpeg.txt ogUADwZ.jpeg.txt SCLzhRh.jpeg.txt w6WINvD.jpeg.txt how can I remove the .jpeg from their name? [01:45] de-facto: Nope it froze before it showed the complete error [01:45] This is the most complete thing I have [01:45] https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33402675/IMAG0104.jpg [01:47] elisa87: for i in *.jpeg.txt ; do echo "${i/.jpeg/}" ; done [01:47] elisa87: although, you can use mv "$i" "${i/.jpeg/}" instead of the echo to actually move them, or I guess rename regex is probably just as simple [01:48] SchrodingersScat: can you please give a complete final answer for renaming them? I am not bash savvy [01:48] elisa87: something like, rename 's/\.jpeg//g' *.jpeg.txt [01:49] Bray90820 hmm might be wifi driver indeed, did you look for alternatives for it? like newer versions or other wifi stack? [01:49] I have looked all over the place and nothing has worked [01:49] de-facto: [01:50] rename 's/\.jpeg//g' *.jpeg.txt worked like a charm thanks SchrodingersScat [01:50] elisa87: charms don't work, this worked much better than a charm. Good luck out there, have fun. [01:51] Bray90820 did you change the wifi driver stack for that wifi? just curious if its a general problem in that stack or if the bug sticks to a particular version of it maybe [01:51] I did not change it [01:51] the only time you would really need the bash version would be if you needed that to be recursive, afaik [01:51] I don't really even know what that means [01:52] zone_oke [01:52] still no sound. :-( [01:52] https://ibin.co/2zyaJfGV1DhK.png [01:52] Bray90820 because if for example you would change it to another stack or version and it works you can be sure its causing the problem then. does it just occur with browsers or when you access the network in another way too? === ada__ is now known as nedved [01:53] https://ibin.co/2zyaJfGV1DhK.png anyone? [01:53] https://ibin.co/2zyaJfGV1DhK.png anyone?;-( === precise|CHI is now known as precise [01:53] * ioannis_ receives a trillion dollars [01:53] de-facto: I wouldn't even know where to begin with that [01:53] Zimbabwe dollars? [01:54] wjat [01:54] de-facto: I can access the network in a terminal but it has frozen with firefox chrome and the ubuntu software center [01:54] orlock: hil [01:55] Bray90820 so i guess it would freeze too while using it from terminal after you produce some network load from there (e.g. download ubuntu iso with wget or such) [01:55] nedved: F6 [01:56] vfw: show me internal and hdmi [01:56] vfw: internal work... only hdmi my problem :-( [01:56] I have a bunch of files that possibly 10% of them are empty, how can I detect all empty files? [01:57] elisa87: find [01:57] Bray90820 well you can try to find out which exact WiFi chip you have and google for alternative driver versions (they probably came with your kernel) for it. Problem is if you use non default drivers its not really supported then (like from PPAs or maybe from aircrack recommendations). [01:57] de-facto: I'll check if you have a wget link for me [01:57] elisa87: find . -size 0 [01:57] Bray90820 http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.10/ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso [01:57] nedved: Oh, ok [01:58] Bray90820 from terminal: wget 'http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.10/ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso' [01:58] vfw: so? :-) [01:58] nedved: I don't know. [01:58] vfw: okay bro [01:59] elisa87: and if you want to delete them find has -delete, I use find . -size 0 -delete ##sometimes, but be careful because that's recursive and will delete things. [01:59] $ find . -type f -empty | wc -l [01:59] thanks [02:00] de-facto: Searched many times for drivers the only thing I find is an old custom kernel which I can't use because it has no touch screen or audio support [02:00] https://launchpad.net/~tigerite/+archive/ubuntu/kernel [02:02] de-facto: It seems like it's not freezing with wget but I will eat and give it time to download [02:02] see you in a little bit [02:03] hmm btw which wifi chip you got there? [02:04] SchrodingersScat: can you please have a look http://pastebin.com/LbGwGYhm I can explain further if my explanation is not very obvious [02:04] I removed some ppas, is there a way to purge apps that were installed via the ppas? [02:04] is 3.0 usb compatible with everything ubuntu? [02:06] Bray90820 can you post the result link from this command? sudo lshw -C network | nc termbin.com 9999 [02:07] elisa87: so you just want to display them like that? [02:08] right. I don't want to delete those files but I want to create a stat file that shows stuff like so :D [02:08] SchrodingersScat: [02:09] Hi, my brightness keys don't work on my laptop. How can I fix this? [02:10] I think it's just a mapping issue [02:10] Works in Windows. [02:11] My laptop is an ASUS K501UX [02:11] aliendude5300: do you have brightness control in your gui? [02:11] aliendude5300: e.g. I can click on upper-right corner and control it [02:11] It works under brighness & lock [02:11] brightness* [02:12] I just don't like opening up the settings application to change brightness [02:12] aliendude5300: then go to your keyboard options and see if you can map your keys [02:12] aliendude5300: or run `xev' in a shell and see if your keys work [02:12] elisa87: this is my answer, for i in * ; do echo -n "$i"; cat "$i" | sed ':a;$!{N;s/\n/, /;ba;}' ; done [02:12] I don't see the options in the available mappings [02:13] elisa87: stole the creative part from here: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/132832/remove-all-the-new-lines-in-a-text-file-using-sed [02:13] So, when I press the keys in xev, I don't see events triggered [02:13] SchrodingersScat: http://askubuntu.com/questions/842653/creating-a-customized-stat-file-out-of-files-a-current-directory just thought to phrase my question better [02:14] The same keys work in Windows. It does trigger events for the volume up/down [02:14] can i make a 1 tb usb into a live stick with all persistent memory/storage? [02:14] * SchrodingersScat doesn't remember if there's a persistence limit or not [02:14] are there any drawbacks to using such a very large stick? [02:15] mikubuntu: 1 tb usb stick? [02:15] Pretty sure you can do a full install on a 1tb USB [02:15] Wulf: yeah for $11 online (plus) $4 shipping [02:15] Lol [02:16] Wulf: reviews seem legit [02:16] mikubuntu: THat's a scam. Don't buy it. [02:16] mikubuntu: largest one I can see here is 512 GiB. Just 163€ [02:17] Jordan_U: wulf well they seem to have a lot of them https://www.wish.com/c/577a84ec5c4a1b07d54536df [02:17] Add [02:17] if you put in the search box usb you get pages and pages of them [02:17] so, 99% of those are fake. They make tools to detect fake USB sticks. [02:18] You WILL suffer data loss if you use a fake large capacity USB [02:18] SchrodingersScat: so for i in * ; do echo -n "$i"; cat "$i" | sed ':a;$!{N;s/\n/, /;ba;}' ; done > stat_file did something weird but without redirection worked fine [02:18] you can fix the capacity though and get the ~4GB of actual storage. [02:18] also I can't understand the sed part (for replacing I guess at all) SchrodingersScat [02:18] mikubuntu: A common scam is to provide a 1 GiB flash module plus custom firmware to report itself as larger. After writing a certain amount of data, anything further will simply be lost. [02:18] aliendude5300: never heard of it -- fake usb? [02:19] how would you redirect that to a file ? for i in * ; do echo -n "$i"; cat "$i" | sed ':a;$!{N;s/\n/, /;ba;}' ; done > stat_file SchrodingersScat [02:19] elisa87: me either mostly, but I know that bit after \n/ is the part that's being substituted, it used to just be a space [02:19] yes. it's a common scam. you can buy a drive like 64gb that's actually 2gb. after the first 2gb it writes over your old files to trick you. you lose data. [02:19] shows fake capacity in your computer [02:19] http://www.ebay.com/gds/How-to-repair-a-fake-USB-drive-pen-drive-/10000000010832144/g.html [02:20] mikubuntu: Now that you know that that link is a scam, please don't post it in this channel again. [02:20] wow, so maybe i'm better off buying a lexar at the local store [02:20] elisa87: maybe some >> instead of > and inside the loop? also consider consulting #bash because I'm not guaranteed to give sane answers [02:21] mikubuntu: Definitely. THough there are probably places you can get better deals than your local store. ##hardware can probably help you there. [02:21] much. your local store will sell you a real drive [02:21] amazon.com -- the ones shipped and sold by amazon are a good bet too [02:22] will be much cheaper than say best buy or fry's [02:22] well, gotta get at least 20 gb for the 17.5 data i need to save off this box so i can finally fix it with a fresh install [02:22] Hello. [02:23] I want to search INSIDE the text of the files in a folder. [02:23] and since i've never seen a 20gb i guess it will be 32 [02:23] When I search right now it's just searching the file names. [02:23] Any ideas? [02:25] cyanred: Are the files text files or libreoffice documents/PDFs/something else? Do you want a GUI solution or would a terminal based one be OK? [02:25] Text. [02:25] I'm using the file manager. [02:25] GUI would be better. [02:25] But why doesn't it by default allow me to search the text files? [02:28] hi guys be back [02:28] mikubuntu, this is what a real 1tb usb costs: https://www.amazon.com/Kingston-DataTraveler-Predator-1TB-DTHXP30/dp/B00E65QM8O [02:29] cyanred: In the terminal it's easy to do a one off, as long as you have a genral idea of where the file is so that you can limit the number of files that need to be searched: grep -Ri 'text to search for here' /path/to/search/in/ [02:29] so.... i don know, but start system with linux-image-extra-4.4.0-45-generic lost hdmi sound... then, try bootup wih linux-image-extra-4.4.0-31-generic and hdmi sound is back! [02:29] thanks for all. [02:29] Jordan_U, I'm not good with terminal. [02:29] Do you have a GUI? [02:30] Wulf: hey [02:30] Wulf: so.... i don know, but start system with linux-image-extra-4.4.0-45-generic lost hdmi sound... then, try bootup wih linux-image-extra-4.4.0-31-generic and hdmi sound is back! [02:30] cyanred: I veguely remember tracker being an indexing tool that indexed the contents of files for later searching, but I haven't used any such tool for so many years that might be very out of date. [02:30] nedved: coincidence? [02:31] Wulf: maybe... after upgrade kernel lost hdmi sound! :/ [02:32] Jordan_U, How come Ubuntu doesn't allow us to search text files inside? [02:32] In my icons I see the first few lines of text in the text file [02:32] so the OS already knows. Why not allow us to search the files? [02:33] cyanred: It does. It's just a feature that I have never wanted to use, and thus I don't know how off the top of my head. === everyone is now known as Everyone [02:34] Hey [02:34] Hey [02:35] Jordan_U, try find [02:35] you may have to updatedb first [02:35] I used the Gnome tool: [02:35] http://askubuntu.com/questions/127892/how-to-find-a-text-file-which-contains-a-specific-word-inside-not-in-its-name [02:35] Worked perfectly.

[02:46] no it just was meant to cause some traffic on your wifi [02:47] Alrght [02:48] Well it didn't freeze the tablet just stoped the download at 9% [02:48] Might have been because the tablet locked tho [02:50] sorry too tired to be helpfull, if i were you i would google about that wifi chip you got there [02:50] I did that already but thanks anyways === KingsQuest- is now known as KingsQuest [03:02] Hello, I am using this command: cat links.txt | xargs -n 1 -P 8 wget -q to be able to run 8 instances of wget.

I went to ##python and they had no idea [06:16] Can anyone help me? [06:17] pip install pyopencl [06:19] threatworking: purged pyopencl and used pip. Same issue [06:19] "No module named 'pyopencl'" [06:19] find / | grep -i pyopencl [06:20] amazoniantoad: If you install via the package, it's in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/, which should be in the path, I'm pretty sure. See: http://packages.ubuntu.com/yakkety/i386/python-pyopencl/filelist [06:20] Flannel: then why doesn't python recognize it? I install pyopencl for python3 and 2 [06:23] on the redhat family you can do like a rpm -iV to check for package manipulation from the database, whats the dpkg/apt equivelent [06:23] if there is one? [06:24] amazoniantoad: you can verify that /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ exists in the path, with `import sys` and `print (sys.path)` [06:24] Hi, does any one here know how I can make ubuntu wake-up when my laptop is docked? [06:24] SynfulAck: What do you mean by "package manipulation (from the database)"? [06:25] Flannel: http://pastebin.com/6Dd3yx4x [06:25] Flannel, i think it checks the hashes or something [06:26] SynfulAck: you've got dpkg --verify [06:26] amazoniantoad: You're running python 3.5, when you install "python-pyopencl" you're installing it for python 2. You need to install python3-pyopencl for python3's library [06:26] Flannel: [06:27] Flannel: I did, via sudo apt-get install python3-pyopencl [06:27] Hi, folks. [06:27] amazoniantoad: well, looking further at that paste, you actually don't have dist-packages in your path. So, that would be your problem too. [06:27] hi pipe [06:27] hai friends [06:28] Question. Haven't installed ubuntu in a couple years. Now installing yakkity on a new laptop running windows 10, and was hoping to set it up in a dual-boot configuration with the ubuntu partition encrypted [06:28] amazoniantoad: Are you running the python that comes with ubuntu? or did you install your own python version? [06:28] I'm wondering why the lvm and encryption options are grayed out when I select "install ubuntu alongside windows boot manager" in ubiquity. [06:28] Flannel: I'm pretty sure it's the ubuntu version. Though it has been a long time, it could be something else. [06:28] amazoniantoad: because that path looks like you're running a python version from your home directory, not the system version. [06:28] Don't think it is though [06:29] Flannel: should I purge python and reinstall? [06:29] does anyone know why the only canned dual-boot option in the installer disables lvm and dmcrypt? It makes me nervous to set up my own partition scheme, since maybe the installer knows something I don't [06:30] amazoniantoad: Try running /usr/bin/python3 (well, and tab complete that to whatever dot version you have, depending on your ubuntu version) [06:31] amazoniantoad: and then inside *that* python shell, see if you have the library [06:31] Flannel: you're right. That was the problem. I don't know where this anaconda thing came from. What can I do to change this to the default installation? This has caused me a lot of headache === for{} is now known as Alleanza [06:32] SynfulAck: look into the "debsums" package [06:32] amazoniantoad: Well, it looks like it's in your home directory. So... delete it :) [06:32] Flannel: but if I try to execute python where will it point to? Back to the default directory? [06:32] dax, system is already compromised, need forensic tools [06:32] amazoniantoad: It points to whatever "python" executable is first in the paths. `which python` will tell you where "python" will come from. [06:32] dax, thx though, i know about that package [06:33] amazoniantoad: Depending on your ubuntu version, you may actually be interested in `python3` and not `python` (which would be python 2) [06:33] Flannel: thank you so much! omg [06:33] Flannel: such a friggin headache [06:33] amazoniantoad: Of course, whether you want python 2 or python 3 is up to you, of course. Your anaconda thing was python 3 [06:34] Flannel: Yeah I kind of learned to use python3. Though it doesn't matter that much. Python 3 appears to be more strict syntatically [06:34] amazoniantoad: regardles, you've got it solved. So that's good. [06:35] Flannel: thanks again. Going to go play with opencl now :) [06:35] what the f is the difference between a caching nameserver and a master smth smth server - defferent modes in Bind9 ? [06:39] if someone responded, I didn't see :( pidgin crashed [06:41] pipegeek: you didnt miss anything but i dont know the answer to your question === KingsQuest is now known as k-r4d [06:59] Why do I get the following error when trying to install python-pip? http://paste.ubuntu.com/23391694/ I already tried update and upgrade and -f install. [07:00] "This may mean that you have [07:00] This may mean that you have [07:00] hrmm, whoops [07:00] "This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or" is a classic line [07:00] the 'or' is particularly raw [07:01] reisio, what to do? [07:01] Anyone any idea? [07:02] hello [07:03] CtrlC: looking at the output, my guess is that it wants a version of python that once existed but doesn't presently, as far as your install is concerned [07:03] I'm looking for an IDE for Xubuntu [07:03] in that case you can probably track down a deb of that version & install it [07:04] hello: for developing what? === rizzy is now known as riz0n [07:04] I'm developing a theory based around applying bio-statistics to server joins [07:05] complex joins that is === Ilija is now known as Ilija-Marcelco [07:05] hello: uhuh...

[07:08] yes that is correct [07:08] thou be-est f'real? [07:08] I am working to computerize my theories [07:09] it is very complex [07:09] if you say so [07:09] you asked ... [07:09] yeah but that's not really the answer to what I asked :D [07:09] the data structure are very complex [07:09] MacOS was not capable of handling the theoretical limits [07:10] mabus: thanks anyway [07:10] hello: you might look at anjuta or kdevelop, but I'm not sure entirely how focused on scripting languages they are [07:10] personally I'd just use a text editor & a terminal [07:10] I was forced to switch to Linux [07:10] well, as believable as that is, it's also hilarious to read from anyone :p [07:10] how do I install terminal? === Ilija is now known as Ilija-Marcelco [07:11] hello: heh === nano is now known as Guest13625 [07:12] will terminal be able to handle one million theoretical limits? [07:12] help me to install terminal please! [07:13] you already have terminal [07:13] HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?!?! [07:14] you've got one line to not be a troll, or i'm going back to what i was doing === Ilija is now known as Ilija-Marcelco [07:14] I cannot comply to the above request :-( [07:14] guys [07:14] hello, ctrl + alt + f1 [07:14] guys how do i choose between xubuntu and ubunto mate [07:15] what is the pros and cons? [07:15] i was told they are essentially the same [07:15] I went with Atom for my IDE everyone O:-) [07:15] newscripter: you mean choose which to install? [07:15] Ben64: yes [07:16] depends if you like xfce or mate desktop [07:16] note you can have both installed at the same time [07:16] well thats the problem, i dont know. I was told they are practically the same but i should pick either [07:16] looking for a tie breaker to pick which one [07:16] ubuntu-mate seems more polished, in my opinion [07:17] nicer looking or you mean better supported [07:17] ? === eaglepsyx1 is now known as eaglepsyx [07:17] nicer looking, more functional. but this is my opinion [07:18] anyone using Pyzo? [07:19] thank you Ben64 [07:19] +rep [07:19] no such thing here, but you could do "!cookie | Ben64" [07:20] hello there [07:21] register [07:21] a [07:21] aa [07:21] a [07:21] a [07:21] name?

Does a stock install spin down idle spinning drives by default? [07:27] hi there! [07:27] hi [07:28] 16.04 it is total PITA to connect my BT headset [07:28] i read various SO's and it seems that kinda historically ubuntu had troubles with BT [07:29] joob: on a desktop, or laptop? [07:29] arlekin: all distros & all OSes have trouble with BT [07:29] reisio, desktop(dell core duo) [07:30] joob: I wouldn't think so, no, but I haven't actually checked [07:30] reisio: seems so, since the only device/OS i have no problem with is my android phone [07:30] my assumption is /etc/hdparm.conf reisio [07:30] joob: if you have a power manager installed (default GNOME/Unity probably would), you can check its prefs [07:30] just curious if ubuntu had it's own way first before proceeding [07:31] reisio, this is a server, no gui [07:31] arlekin: IME things that support bluetooth in addition to other wireless systems are usually hopelessly overloaded [07:31] and that's the problem with bluetooth [07:32] which is a shame, because being able to use multiple wireless devices with one receiver is essentially the single reason to use bluetooth over plain wireless [07:33] folks I am in trouble, dont know everything was working fine a while ago, well I am running ubuntu 16.10, my firefox browser is not working, but my gogole chrome broswer works fine and can load internet, firefox says Server not found I even tried all these https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-cant-load-websites-other-browsers-can but no use, there is another inbuilt brower in ubuntu that also dosent seem to load net [07:33] no clue what wrong here, and no I have no proxies [07:33] reisio: oh well... im not even that ambitious, i just wanna my headphones... [07:34] because of this I am not able to connect through hexchat it also says irc.freenode.net not found, had use webchat from chrome [07:35] hubatrix: open a terminal and do "ping irc.freenode.net" [07:35] arlekin: that's all anybody wants [07:35] Ben64: ping irc.freenode.net ping: irc.freenode.net: Name or service not known [07:35] hubatrix: ping 8.8.8.8 [07:36] yup Ben64 0 percent packet loss [07:36] Ok, if you run tasksel you get some ncurses prompt which allows you to install other server components, and in that there is an option to install a basic ubuntu server. The question is if i choose this option, is there a way to transition from a desktop to this install and wipe out all that crap you dont need for a server? [07:36] hubatrix: you need to set new static dns servers [07:36] PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=1 ttl=58 time=7.98 ms [07:36] how did this happen Ben64 ? and how do I set new static dns server ? [07:36] hubatrix: dunno, and use your network manager === gordon is now known as Guest16967 [07:37] I dont get it cant all my requests channel through google dns and serve me ip's ? google dns semes working right Ben64 ? [07:38] hubatrix: yes, google's dns servers are free to use. 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 [07:38] so Ben64 how do I set up static dns with network manager ? [07:38] open it, it's kind of just... there === guest293 is now known as b1ack1isted [07:39] Ben64: gui ? [07:39] yep [07:40] sup guys,,,, anyone know howto remote torrent in Linux from android?? any points in the right direction would be greatly appreciated [07:40] search returned nothing for " network manager", how do I do this in terminal cant I use netwrokctl ? [07:40] Ben64: [07:41] hubatrix, you can terminal edit resolv.conf for now [07:41] for now in the sense isnt it permanent joob ? [07:42] hubatrix, just for now.. so u have a way while you search for a solution [07:43] the solution is to add a new static dns ip into to my resolv.conf right ? joob, right now it is just nameserver 127.0.1.1 [07:43] hubatrix, If you have NetworkManager then you should instead statically add nameserver addresses via network indicator: Edit Connections... | Edit... | IPv4 Settings | Additional DNS servers. [07:44] you certain that procedure isnt there? [07:45] hubatrix: fwiw, it's pretty common for DNS forwarding to be the first thing to go when COTS network routers start getting tight on ram.. give your router a reboot [07:45] I did that twice Triffid_Hunter [07:46] hubatrix, give resolv a go. [07:47] hubatrix: well install 'dig' and you can trivially find out which servers are working and which aren't.. I usually check router first, then ISP, then google public to find out what's broken [07:47] joob: I added 8.8.8.8 as value for additional namserver under ipv4, still chrome works and nothing else connects to internet [07:47] hubatrix, can you ping from the router? either on a webpage or ssh? [07:47] hubatrix, or perhaps add dns at router level anyway [07:49] Triffid_Hunter: darned plants [07:49] joob I can ping my router, cant ping any webpage [07:50] Triffid_Hunter: I have dig [07:50] hubatrix: then you can dig @127.0.0.1 google.com, dig @(your ISP [07:50] 's dns) google.com, dig @4.2.2.1 google.com [07:50] hubatrix, i meant ping from router. what that means is logging into your router over web/ssh and issue a ping coming from 192.168.1.1(for ex). [07:50] and see which DNS servers are working and which ones aren't. perhaps unbound has barfed and needs a restart? [07:52] joob: Triffid_Hunter http://sprunge.us/GVCg [07:52] What is the estimated time to upgrade from 14.06 to 16.04? It says hours, if possible I like a better estimate. [07:53] I cant curl, I cant wget [07:54] Mement, it varies because it depends on how old/new hardware is overall. hard to predict [07:55] joob, Computer is unavailable during upgrade or is it done in background as any other package update? [07:56] joob: ideally what should your resolv.conf look like ? [07:56] mine just has nameserver 127.0.1.1 [07:56] hubatrix, try pinging this address. it is one of the first dig replies i got on my end. ping 139.162.227.51 [07:57] Mement, i think you can still use it. i never do that procedure myself i always reinstall. [07:57] yes joob that works 0 packet loss [07:57] dns issue..its gotta be [07:57] can you log into your router and check the dns entries [07:57] hubatrix: wtf, your local dns server is returning empty success.. pretty sure you need to restart unbound or whatever your local dns server is [07:58] I've seen unbound do that once or twice when connections are going up and down rapidly [07:58] Triffid_Hunter, hubatrix could solve this at the router level couldn't they? [07:58] what should I do Triffid_Hunter ? [07:58] I logged into router (web) but there seems no ping tool [07:58] there [07:59] ok look for dns entry [07:59] joob: not if the router's DNS forwarder is fine but unbound is mangling all the replies [07:59] hubatrix, you have another machine on your network with the same issues? [08:00] hubatrix: I've no idea what the thing is in ubuntu that lets you restart unbound (if that's even what it's using).. maybe sudo killall unbound? hopefully it'll get automatically restarted [08:01] Why does pip install flask get the following error: [08:01] locale.Error: unsupported locale setting [08:01] I have my smart phone and that works fine, loads any page requested on both firefox and chrome joob Triffid_Hunter [08:01] heya! Can somebody tell me how I can make this work: dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/input-sources/xkb-options ["ctrl:nocaps","altwin:swap_alt_win"] [08:01] here's my locale and locale -a: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23391820/ === mcphail_ is now known as mcphail [08:02] hubatrix: Triffid_Hunter joob so I guess my router is proper? [08:02] my ubuntu has issues [08:02] other machines in yer network same problem too? [08:03] joob: no [08:03] they work fine [08:05] should I add this in dhclient.conf, prepend domain-name-servers 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4; ? joob [08:05] hubatrix, resolv.conf is my suggestion [08:05] no comment on that other file [08:05] hubatrix: why don't you just open the network manager :S [08:05] joob: what should I add in resolv.conf ? [08:05] Ben64: I did [08:05] and [08:06] hubatrix, wherever you go that suggestion, go ahead and try it. just be sure to make a backup of the file before you edit it. [08:06] resolv.conf gets overwritten each boot [08:06] it's so easy to just add it using the network manager [08:06] hubatrix, http://askubuntu.com/questions/130452/how-do-i-add-a-dns-server-via-resolv-conf [08:07] edit connections | edit | ipv4 settings | additional DNS server : 8.8.8.8 | save, tried to load a page still same thing not fixed Ben64 [08:07] Ben64, hubatrix says he cant find that area in networkmanager [08:07] additional? [08:08] what does it say in ipv4 settings at the top [08:08] Ben64: yea because method is DHCP [08:08] automatic [08:08] change to dhcp addresses only [08:09] there is automatic dhcp adress only , no dhcp adress only [08:09] Ben64: [08:09] yeah same thing [08:09] okay I saved and tried a page [08:09] and you'll want to put '8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4' for dns [08:09] still nothing works Ben64 [08:10] without the quote === pavlushka is now known as praisetheSun [08:10] did that Ben64 [08:10] nothing still :/ === praisetheSun is now known as pavlushka [08:10] try ping google.com [08:11] Ben64: $ ping google.com ping: google.com: Name or service not known [08:11] reboot time [08:11] reboot whole system Ben64 ? [08:11] yep [08:11] k I will be back [08:13] bbc arabic === rizzy is now known as riz0n [08:16] hey Ben64 thanks a lot ! it works now [08:17] but is this an permanent solution ? Ben64 [08:17] and these many years it was in automatic dhcp why all of a sudden I had to change this ? any idea why this would happen [08:18] hubatrix: yep forever [08:18] thanks joob Triffid_Hunter [08:18] might be a dns server you're getting that is giving bad info or is down or who knows [08:18] i stopped using ISP dns's long ago [08:19] same here [08:19] thats one reason why i wanted you to check dns on router hubatrix [08:19] still never got an answer. :P [08:20] yeah i set good servers on my router and not have to bother with it on any device [08:20] Ben64, you mind a server question? :P [08:20] go for it [08:21] how could i tell if the spinning hdd on a desktop running 16.04 server is, in fact sleeping? why? i am not near the machine so a script or a log record of it spinning down. [08:21] would help me determine it is sleeping as instructed. [08:22] I use dyndns.org Ben64 [08:22] hubatrix, to recieve dns? or to host a dns name for your ip? [08:22] you mean the dns service that got massively attacked recently? cool [08:22] how dO I check dns on router joob by pinging from router ? [08:23] depends on router [08:23] netgear [08:23] it's not really on topic here though, but it'll be in one of the pages probably [08:24] log in to router. look for something like static dns and what it says, even if it is blank say so [08:24] lol Ben64 after I added DNS I am not able to login through web to my router it says "You are not connected to your Router’s WiFi network. To access routerlogin.com, your device must be connected to your Router’s WiFi network. Check your current connection and try again." [08:24] joob: not sure if you can query that using hdparm === rizzy is now known as riz0n [08:25] joob, yes it was blank last time I checked [08:25] minutes ago [08:25] joob: man-page says hdparm -C /dev/whatever [08:25] hateball, would a status check in a 30 minute cron in a loop help? I could pipe results to file in ram [08:25] I am trying to connect to a windows share using ubuntu 16.04 [08:25] hubatrix, then put in a good dns. a few to pick from [08:26] hubatrix: routerlogin.com ??? [08:26] it sees the machine, but although the machine has no password, it won't let me in without password [08:26] yup Ben64 I am not able to login, when I say routerlogin.net it now says You are not connected to your Router’s WiFi network. To access routerlogin.com, your device must be connected to your Router’s WiFi network. Check your current connection and try again. [08:26] joob, yes when I am able to login to i [08:26] it [08:26] hubatrix: why are you using routerlogin.net though [08:26] joob: I don't know what you want to do, I only saw you asking for a way to determine if it was sleeping or not [08:27] mystique_, windows defaults to no sharing from windows unless user has a password. if this windows account just "logs in" then thats the issue. [08:27] 192.168.1.1? [08:27] ok, so windows logs in from other machines with out password [08:27] hubatrix: depends, but maybe [08:27] hateball, i want to know a remote server spinning hdd is sleeping from a reporting method [08:28] since i cant hear it power down sitting close [08:28] joob, every windows machine can share [08:28] but ubuntu can't (baffling) [08:28] yea ben64 I can log in now, joob sorry my bad static routers is empty not static dns, there is something called dynamic dns and its turned off as of now [08:29] hi everyone!, i joined ubuntu to a domain but now i want to leave the domain and delete users, i tried to delete users before leave domain but i can't [08:29] mystique_, amongst themselves? [08:29] yeah [08:29] Dynamic DNS service is not enabled. should this enabled ? [08:29] hubatrix: no [08:29] what exactly are you trying to achieve? [08:29] joob: what's the output of sudo hdparm -I /dev/ | grep level [08:30] mystique_, make a test windows account and put a simple password on it. then login to it, enable sharing and see if it works that way. Are you getting prompted for who to login *as* from ubuntu? [08:31] delete domain users in my pc [08:31] hubatrix: it might be in dhcp settings, it might be impossible, it might be behind an "advanced" button, who knows [08:31] g2g2g, leave the domain first then purge [08:32] I did that all that Ben64 its just not there, anyhow what ever I have done right now is a long term solution right ? [08:32] hubatrix: for your computer yep [08:32] joob, how can i purge? [08:32] cool thanks again [08:33] del accounts left behind because of it [08:33] joob, ok, trying that [08:33] mystique_, if this works it narrows down whats going on [08:34] mystique_, are these windows computers on a domain? [08:35] we don't know, but it autodetects as 'workspace' or something [08:35] we're trying to set up a new account [08:36] workgroup [08:36] is the domain [08:39] @g2g2g run command -> control userpasswords2 [08:41] workgroups and domains are two dif things. if these machines giving you a problem are on a domain(check properties) then this is another problem altogether. [08:42] indeed [08:42] this is a plain windows 7 ultimate install [08:42] ok. can you share from the test account? [08:42] then it won't be on a domain [08:42] it works fine with no effort in windows, so I presume it's pretty much the default of everything [08:43] I have an ubuntu running on a rented vserver which runs with KVM, and I started getting crashes every few hours(!) with the screen output looking like this: http://i.imgur.com/IDsbW3W.png [08:43] someone having a clue what this could be?

[08:44] not what its for mystique_ [08:44] if youre reluctant to make a test account [08:45] its hard enough troubleshooting....what probably is a windows-side issue [08:45] nice... [08:45] 16.10, my dns stopped resolving addresses... [08:45] ztane: interesting [08:45] I had to reboot the computer since I couldn't troubleshoot without google... [08:45] Ben64, wonder if something's going on again. [08:46] possibly [08:46] like that crap last week [08:46] dnsmasq resolved at 127.0.1.1, but it must have been some other that didn't work then... [08:46] ztane: someone just came in here with the same issue [08:46] blah blah blah, set static ips, use 8.8.8.8, 8.8.8.4 ... they're google's free public DNS [08:46] perhaps it was an onetime issue [08:46] no, it didn't work either... nothing in the resolv.conf, nothing in the network manager...

[08:48] ztane, so the problem is it fails after a few hours uptime? [08:48] need some help with grub ...as ussual [08:48] joob: That fixed it perfectly [08:48] hateball: ew. [08:48] lol [08:48] joob: lets see if it recurs :d [08:48] Ntemis: :D [08:48] this was the first time so far...

[09:06] joob, yes i need, is for company [09:08] ah I thought you were on a windows machine [09:10] g2g2g, i dont have expertise in doing what you are asking. i so suggest you take an image of a perfectly working ubuntu system. this way, if you encounter terrible messes attempting this at least you don't waste time reinstalling [09:12] when I try to install ubuntu in a computer that has preeinstalled windows 10 in uefi mode, the computer doesn't detect the live usb from which I am trying to install linux mint. Need help please [09:12] linux ubuntu* [09:13] ask in the mint support channels guest_ [09:13] !mintsupport [09:13] Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [09:20] Is there a channel for Mate? [09:20] !mate [09:20] Ubuntu MATE is a supported !flavor of Ubuntu that uses MATE as the default desktop environment. It functions similarly to older versions of GNOME. For more information, see https://ubuntu-mate.org/ [09:23] So this channel is correct then? [09:23] Correct, for ubuntu. [09:24] Is there a plain ubuntu as well? [09:26] barq: That'd be... Ubuntu [09:26] with !unity [09:29] hey guys, anybody knows where the gnupg2 keys are stored? right now i have gnupg and gnupg2 (for enigmail) but the have different key stores, how do you guys handle this? [09:30] ~/.gnupg ? [09:34] !unity [09:34] Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity [09:34] Why do people use Mate instead of unity? [09:35] Probably as a matter of preference or because they got bored of unity and then wanted something new [09:36] Myself, I tried gnome for a couple of days [09:38] mate is lighter than unity [09:43] joob: yeah gnupg1 stuff is in located in ~/.gnupg, but gnupg2? [09:43] Hi. Can i upgrade dirctly from 15.04 without reinstalling all my software [09:44] my apology. [09:45] might need to export them now.. ive never used v2 [09:45] joob: ah i see, there are diffrent file extensions now, gpg for v1 and kbx for v2 [09:45] so i have to export them from v1 to v2 [09:45] i dont know exactly what you're doing so i cant say [09:45] if you want to keep them definitely [09:45] jirido: yes, but fresh install is easier [09:46] want to use them with enigmail too === for{} is now known as cautOBunica === cautOBunica is now known as for{} [09:48] hmm. right. I might have to live with it then. Ther is so much === for{} is now known as MaiTitos [09:48] jirido: no, do not live with it, you're running a dangerously unsupported version [09:50] brunch875, back to unity? [09:55] Budgie ubuntu remix is the best fastest ever [09:55] MaiTitos: Well, I really liked gnome. Stuff like integrated desktop recording on hotkey was just fantastic. I missed stuff like + to launch applications but you could install a gnome plugin to mimic that. But in the end I just missed how clean and keyboard-only unity feels like. If only there was a shortcut to "open last notification"... [09:55] Anyway, if you want to talk DEs, I'm around #ubuntu-discuss [09:55] ok [09:57] how come you can't change the bash prompt colors anymore? [09:57] in 14.04 [09:58] lantern: you can in 16.10 [09:58] I don't remember ever being unable to change the colors [10:04] brunch875: would u mind pastbinning your relevant configs?

[10:15] brunch875: this is a server. no gui [10:16] you mean there's no colors when connecting via SSH? === MaiTitos is now known as meltd0wn [10:18] brunch875: i'm saying the server has no desktop environment [10:18] i dont use keyboard shortcuts to open apps [10:19] and i dont use mouse [10:19] i disabled the launch bar [10:20] lantern: then how do you reach a command prompt? SSH? Is there a screen there on your server in which you access a tty physically? [10:21] i use systemd to open my browser :D [10:22] how many ubuntu users use systemd to open their browser? :D [10:22] lantern: here's my ~/.bashrc anyway, so you check out some coloring http://paste.ubuntu.com/23392230/ [10:23] hello I did sudo *.deb, everything was in /home/Desktop/ [10:23] is this supposed to be there?

[11:07] Eggdrop requires Tcl and the Tcl development files to compile. [11:07] If you already have Tcl installed on this system, make sure you [11:07] also have the development files (common package names include [11:07] 'tcl-dev' and 'tcl-devel'). If I just wasn't looking [11:07] in the right place for it, re-run ./configure using the [11:08] thanks [11:08] filosofie: use http://paste.ubuntu.com .... [11:08] yes [11:08] thats the error message [11:08] ;] [11:09] how can I find the tcl files? [11:09] so i can put the right path ? [11:11] ah its ok [11:11] found it [11:11] When I am in the vi editor, press i for insert and then use the arrow keys to navigate in the file it types ABCD instead of navigating. How can I fix this? [11:12] barq: use vim instead of vi [11:12] barq,use nano instead of vi [11:12] barq: Press Esc and try to navigate, Insert mode is inserting text [11:13] On Kubuntu I could always navigate in i mode [11:14] barq, this has to do with the keyboard settings in your terminal. What termimnal are you using? [11:14] The default mate one [11:14] How can I tell the version? [11:15] barq: then you need to "set nocompatible" if you don't want traditional vi behaviour [11:15] Where do I set that? [11:16] barq: if you are in traditional vi, add it to ~/.exrc [11:16] barq: if you are using vim, set it in ~/.vimrc [11:16] I don't have .exrc [11:17] barq: then make it [11:18] Thanks, now it works. [11:18] Is there also a way to see windows that are minimized apart from tabbing? [11:18] barq: np. But, seriously, use vim instead of vi if you don't want endless headaches [11:19] OK, I'll havea a go [11:21] GPG error: http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY [11:22] I tried sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys [11:22] but get host not found [11:22] barq: vim and vi should by default both point to vim.tiny, the default editor on Ubuntu, I cant imagin these are different programs under Xenial. [11:23] I had to install vim [11:24] barq: I usually install the vim package and switch the default editor to vim.basic, then both vi and vim start the vim.basic editor [11:24] Hi. I can't upgrade from 14.04 to 16.06, do-release-upgrade complains about BAD signature from "Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key", and then "Authentication failed". What shoud I do? [11:25] ktt9: Did you run "apt-get update" and install all available updates before adempting the dist-upgrade? [11:25] Yes. [11:25] It went well, without any problem. [11:26] Palm_premium: vim-tiny just give a vi clone. The "vim" package is proper vim [11:26] ktt9: Stange, if the key was bad I would expect it during the updating of the headers and during the upgrades as well [11:27] Before I did apt-get update/upgrade do-release-upgrade complained about apt being too old or something. [11:28] mcphail: Agreed vim.basic is great, allong with vim-nox for pythong plugin support ;) [11:28] ktt9: could you run "apt-get update -qq", it should not produce output. [11:29] Okay, just a moment. [11:30] how to remove .git directory from vendor/commerceguys/zone and is it good to remove .git inside library.

[11:35] Can anyone recommend a bluetooth ergonomic logitech mouse that works with Ubuntu? I tried the MX Master and the bluetooth did not work despite trying some of the fixes online. [11:36] I guess it doesn't have to be logitech... === rizzy is now known as riz0n [11:38] JuJUBee, have a logitech mx 5500 (pretty old at this point but still nice) the mouse and keyboard work with the dongle that came with the them in Ubuntu for me [11:38] JuJUBee, that said I usually use a smaller RF mouse just out of convenience and because it's lighter and ultimately more comfortable [11:38] Palm_premium: apt-get update -qq indeed didn't produce any output. [11:39] ktt9: followed by "apt-get dist-upgrade", which will install all available updates [11:39] JuJUBee, other one is not bluetooth but gets good enough range to never really drop out and don't have to deal with bluetooth and pairing [11:40] apt-get dist-upgrade discovered that 7 packages should be updated. It proceeded to installation and successfully completed the task. [11:40] ktt9: Coul you retry running "do-release-upgrade"? [11:40] Palm_premium: do-release-upgrade still fails. [11:41] ktt9: still the same warning about the archive? [11:41] authenticate 'xenial.tar.gz' against 'xinial.tar.gz.gpg'; gpg exited 1; BAD signature [11:41] wafflejock, thanks, I am looking for a bluetooth mouse. Don't want to deal with the dongle if I can avoid it. [11:42] ktt9: I take it 'xinial.tar.gz.gpg' is a typo? [11:42] Yep. xenial.tar.gz.gpg actually. [11:42] ktt9: Probably a caching issue [11:43] wafflejock, Look at this on amazon, MUST be mistake... https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Revolution-Cordless-Laser-Mouse/dp/B000HCT12O/ref=pd_sim_147_5?ie=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000HCT12O&pd_rd_r=T1GPCEFJ9Z1Z156T8YZ6&pd_rd_w=HRW5i&pd_rd_wg=Vv4y8&psc=1&refRID=T1GPCEFJ9Z1Z156T8YZ6 [11:43] ktt9: could you run "apt-get clean" and retry the upgrade [11:44] apt-get clean silently succeded, do-release-upgrade loudly failed. [11:44] With the same error. [11:45] This problem haunts me since yesterday morning. How often caches are reset? [11:45] JuJUBee, haha yeah I saw a few crazy prices just looking it up now too maybe I should be selling high :) [11:46] JuJUBee, I think it was around $120 for the set, wasn't cheap but wasn't that expensive [11:46] ktt9: Could you try updating the update "apt-get install update-manager-core". The apt-cache is never cleared automaticaly, only manualy. [11:47] .. [11:47] Oh. apt-cache. I thought you meant some server cache or something. [11:47] Hello everyone !! i'm newbie [11:48] Palm_premium: update-manager-core is already newest version. [11:48] ktt9: when instaling software with apt-get the packages are stored locally before install, when reinstalling software or rerunning the do-release-upgrade there is a change a cached version is used. [11:48] ktt9: Just making sure. [11:48] Understood. Thanks. [11:49] JuJUBee, I think this is the newer version of what I bought, I can't recall exactly when I bought it but was at least 3 years back [11:49] JuJUBee, https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-MK710-Desktop-Wireless-Keyboard/dp/B0036E8V08/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1477655304&sr=1-2&keywords=mx5500 [11:49] wafflejock, that still requires the dongle, correct? [11:50] Howdy all [11:50] I don't want keyboard though... [11:50] ktt9: are you using a proxy service? [11:50] Most probably. [11:50] JuJUBee, you might want to search here https://certification.ubuntu.com/catalog/search/?query=logitech that's gonna be the best way to know it will work [11:50] Palm_premium: How do you switch the default editor to vim.basic? === albert is now known as Guest42628 [11:51] I'm at work now and I believe I not only use proxy, but also VPN and also running Ubuntu in virtual machine. [11:51] JuJUBee, mine had it's own bluetooth dongle too but don't recall if it works with other bluetooth connections... the dongle and keyboard/mouse all have pair buttons on them but not sure I tried with other bluetooth devices really [11:52] barq, update-alternatives --config editor [11:52] wafflejock, thanks for the tips... [11:53] JuJUBee, no problem...actually just tried the mouse with another bluetooth dongle and worked fine so should be fine with your built in too I would guess [11:53] ktt9: is it a test machine? [11:55] Now I get GPG error: http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY [11:55] wafflejock, good to know. [11:55] How can I fix this? [11:55] ktt9: you can try (re)adding the key for the archive repository or disabling the repository. [11:56] I tried sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys [11:56] But get host not found [11:57] ktt9: Or if you are feeling adventurous, you can surpress the GPG error or perform an old-school manual upgrade, I would recommend creating a snapshot before trying either. === BioKee is now known as Guest59718 [11:59] How can I surpress or do oldschool? [12:00] barq, can you try doing "host keyserver.ubuntu.com" [12:00] http://ilredentore.dynv6.net [12:00] barq: I suspect you might have an internet/dns issue [12:01] I am behind a firewall [12:01] firefox works [12:02] barq: ah [12:02] barq: do-release-upgrade is a wrapper script. Step one, make sure all updates are installed. [12:03] barq: step two, edit /etc/apt/sources.list and all files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and change the code word (trusty) to (xenial) [12:04] barq: step three, "apt-get update -qq" and check for errors. [12:04] barq: step four, perform the upgrade "apt-get dist-upgrade" [12:05] barq: But I would not recommend doing this in production and if possible create a snapshot or backup before attemptin this. [12:36] linux_user: /etc/default/grub === RAX is now known as rax- [12:36] I don't like nvidia as a corporation but it tends to work much better [12:36] ok…I’ll check into that.

[12:40] Thank you [12:41] laura__: but there's something you should be aware of: windows comes with a functionality called "fast boot" which doesn't properly close the hard drive when shutting down [12:41] “close the hard drive"? [12:42] so if you boot to linux and try to open the windows partition it will refuse to open it to prevent data corruption [12:42] I didn’t know hard drives had lids! [12:42] linux_user: just a manner of speech :p [12:42] Would rhis be ok for ubuntu notebook [12:42] so I recommend disabling fast boot [12:42] http://www.tesco.com/direct/dell-inspiron-11-3162-116-inch-laptop-celeron-2gb-ram-32gb-blue-with-mcafee-internet-security-2016-unlimited-devices-bundle/214-5001.prd?skuId=214-5001&pageLevel=sku&sc_cmp=ppc_sh-_-sh-_-tesco-_-214-5001&gclid=CjwKEAjw7svABRCi_KPzoPr53QoSJAABSvxfLKSmbQjuvH2S7FT9-ZdwKF6QYuTOlucgSsQQFdlcKxoCxpnw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds&source=others#product-details-container [12:42] from windows [12:42] (sorry for massive link) [12:43] I want to buy for uni but i dont like windows, its annoying [12:43] Windoze on a celeron with 2GB of RAM!?! Oh my gosh, you are asking for pain!?! [12:43] And mac too espensive [12:43] “Thank you Microsoft, may I have another?” [12:43] I own a used Mac === wedjats_ is now known as wedjats [12:44] But if i install ubintu [12:44] $500-$700 you can get a circa 2011-2013 unit with an i7 and 8GB of RAM. [12:44] Will it be faster [12:44] But i need a notebook/light computer [12:44] Walmart (in the US anyway) has really good deals on i5s and i7s [12:44] less than $500 from Dell or ASUS [12:45] long live the iphone, the iphone is dead [12:45] so its a ripoff? [12:45] The dell notebook [12:45] laura__: when I got my laptop I bought it without any OS [12:45] well, I wouldn’t say a rip off, but, chromebook is the best choice if you want to go low end [12:45] Do you need aintvirus? [12:46] if you don't want to use windows, you could probably save that 100eur :p [12:46] at least the chromebooks you know can run Linux in most cases [12:46] Ive never seen a place where u can buy computer with no OS [12:46] ??? [12:46] Well buying one with ChromeOS is basically the same (cost wise) as not getting an OS [12:46] I ordered mine from a UK store [12:46] Chromebooks i heard hard to install linic [12:46] it should be a lot cheaper now that the pound is really low [12:46] *linux [12:46] are you european? [12:46] Sorry im on my phone [12:46] Yes [12:46] laura__, there are lot of place to buy computer without OS (or with ubuntu pre-installed) [12:46] depends on the chromebook many are easy too [12:47] Ubuntu kicks toukhes if you can buy a laptop with it preinstalled (if thats what you want) [12:47] This secureboot thing confuses me, my laptop is 10 years old, i decided i need new [12:47] I got got mine configured from https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/laptops/ [12:47] can buy it without windows there [12:47] I want it to be lightweight and run Linux thats it [12:47] but that was last christmas so maybe the prices aren't as good [12:48] how can i change the wallpaper of the login screen in ubuntu xenial im using lightdm [12:48] Thank u everybody for advice [12:48] Does the ubuntu boot sequence go through some tests and what not like text through the screen? [12:49] So basically avoid AMD/Broadcom, get a live USB and test it or get laptop with no OS? [12:49] Ok I will try :P [12:49] Is AMD not supported? [12:50] laura__: and if it turns out that it isn't compatible with ubuntu, the european law allows you to return it "because you don't like it" [12:50] Really??? I didnt know that!!! [12:50] so don't worry too much [12:50] Thank u :D [12:50] Thats new information [12:50] yes, there's like a week in which you can return devices/games if you don't like them [12:50] In UK its very easy to return things anyway [12:51] At least for me [12:51] laura__: it's got harder with the repealing of the sale of goods act [12:51] Hi, how do i copy from a terminal VI to a gnome software like gedit? Last message in VIM is "XXX ligne copied" [12:51] laura__: though if you quote replacement legislation it seems to still work. anyway, veering OT so I'll stop [12:51] Ok i'll be on the hunt! :p and aah well most of the time its easy to return anyway :p [12:52] sylario: is it a terminal in the graphical session or are you using a TTY? [12:52] How can I create a link? I used to have Eclipse in the start menu of kubuntu [12:52] sylario: use the terminal clipboard (if in a GUI session) [12:52] sylario (IRC): try ctrl+shift+c [12:52] I am using terminator [12:52] I'll go PC world and ask for Advice [12:52] Hello. Which one of these gnome setting commands are correct? https://paste.ubuntu.com/23392609/ [12:52] Thank u everyone have a nice day [12:53] You could always pay an American to come deliver a VAT free laptop to you too! [12:53] good luck, laura__! [12:53] sylario: if you want to copy from vim to the clipboard you have to use the "+ or "* registers [12:53] kenziefc[m]: ctrl+shift-v does not work [12:54] otherwise it copies to the default vim clipboard which is internal to vim [12:54] I have a hp laptop has a AMD apu and GPU will ubuntu work on it? I thought it would, wanting to do a dual boot with win 10 [12:54] FireStriker: almost certainly [12:55] FireStriker (IRC): depends on the model. my r360m isnt supported, so I have to live with intel graphics. [12:55] sylario: If you want to copy current line to the system clipboard to vim, you have to write "+yy [12:56] THEN you can paste normally to gedit [12:56] is it the + that count? [12:56] no, "+ means register + [12:56] Idk need to open it up and have a look the battery is and was fucked [12:56] my last command is gg"*yG [12:56] so i should do gg"+yG ? [12:56] yes [12:56] FireStriker: what model laptop is it? [12:56] I am now in grub rescue can I boot from a cd here or reboot the pic? [12:56] the * register is for the "midle click paste" [12:56] Pavilion 15 [12:57] 2013 [12:57] Working on a old Toshiba 2008 [12:57] in linux, if you select a text, you can open a different window and paste it by middle clicking [12:57] how can i change the wallpaper of the login screen in ubuntu xenial im using lightdm [12:57] in vim, that is the * register === jaune is now known as illiswilgig [12:57] ctrl-c ctr-v is the + register for vim [12:58] Is the login screen called X? [12:58] RatchetTheGamer: no, X is the display server [12:58] Ok [12:58] it's basically what makes it possible to put windows on the screen [12:59] on top of that, there's the desktop environment (DE) such as unity / gnome [12:59] mm, using + it still put the xxxx lines copied message but it does not past in gedit [12:59] Oh nice [13:00] Now booting to repair MBR [13:00] RatchetTheGamer: X is now quite old, so there are efforts to replace it with new alternatives such as wayland, or mir [13:00] sylario: if you write :registers you can check the contents of the registers [13:00] Ok didn't know much about it and heard about it a little [13:00] what do you see in "+? [13:00] Hello all, so i screwed up my boot system by deleting my old linux partition for Manjaro, so I'm trying to install ubuntu alongside Windows with the need of a new/repaired bootloader. How should I do the manual install? [13:01] RatchetTheGamer: I'm not an expert myself, but I believe the "login screen" is what you would call lightdm on the default ubuntu installation [13:01] gnome uses gdm [13:01] Ok thanks [13:01] but you can exchange them too [13:02] brunch875: how do i see "+ ? [13:02] Panther96 (IRC): just install ubuntu on top of the old manjaro partition, it should configure the bootloader automatically. [13:02] sylario: write :registers [13:02] I don't know much [13:02] it should display the contents of every register [13:02] I just like the feel of it [13:02] i already deleted the manjaro partition (hence how i screwed up) [13:02] I thought it would be easier to delete them the start afresh with Windows and the free space [13:03] Panther96: if I was in your situation I would boot from an ubuntu live CD and follow the installation progress [13:03] Panther96 (IRC): you just need to install ubutnu on the free space then [13:03] you can choose to install ubuntu alongside windows and it will put the bootloader [13:03] strange i have no + register [13:03] the bootloader will detect both ubuntu and wjndows [13:04] sylario: it's probably empty [13:04] i have 0 to 9, "", - . : % and / [13:04] "" and "0 seems to be my lines [13:04] The problem with that brunch875 is that I tried that but when it boots i got a grub failure so the Windows bootloader doesn't get restored [13:05] Fixed MBR now on to install of ubuntu [13:05] Panther96: try to fix the MBR first to see if you can boot to windows [13:05] that should wipe GRUB [13:05] maybe using a non azerty keyboard mess with the kind of register ubuntu uses? [13:06] sylario: no,no. Try placing the cursor in the line you wish to copy to the system clipboard [13:06] then type [13:06] :y + [13:07] that yanks current line to "+, which is the system clipboard [13:07] Just use a windows repair disk and do bootrec /FixMbr or bootrec / FixBoot [13:07] can also ggVG to select everything first and then :y + [13:07] register name invalid [13:07] I tried that within Windows (using F12 on UEFI i can still access it through an extra step) but bootrec for some reason refuses to work unlike how I've used it for the past 10 years so I'm attempting to try to reinstall linux with its own booloader and add windows to it [13:08] sylario: perhaps your vim installation doesn't support system clipboard [13:08] What's the best stuff to see if the os is good for the computer? [13:08] sylario write :version [13:08] and look for +xterm_clipboard or -xterm_clipboard [13:08] + means it is available, - means it isn't [13:09] huho [13:09] i may have forget something [13:09] i am using SSH [13:09] sylario: is it possible to select the text with the mouse, right click and then "copy"? [13:10] the simplest solution is sometimes the best one [13:10] Does ubuntu have a start menu? [13:10] brunch875: yes but i want to copy hundreds of lines [13:11] sylario: are you using ubuntu to connect to your server? [13:11] FireStriker, it depends on your needs [13:11] brunch875: client and server are ubuntu(s) [13:11] FireStriker, there are various desktop environments you can run on Ubuntu all have some sort of application launcher, with Unity the default they call it the Dash you use windows key then can search and launch things [13:12] sylario: since you're using vim, you could use vim's functionality to connect via netrw via SSH [13:12] Thanks [13:12] FireStriker, you can get a preview of the various DEs here http://askubuntu.com/questions/65083/what-kinds-of-desktop-environments-and-shells-are-available [13:12] brunch875: :e scp://user@host/relative/path/from/home.txt for example? [13:13] yes, although I don't remember the syntax, that seems to be correct [13:13] What do I want to do/look for when testing the is to see if it works well on the computer [13:13] FireStriker, when you have the base Ubuntu you can switch between these or you can get versions like Ubuntu Gnome or Kubuntu or Lubuntu that have a particular DE by default and no other, but default is Unity for regular desktop Ubuntu [13:13] how can i change the wallpaper of the login screen in ubuntu xenial im using lightdm [13:13] Ik I was useing Lubuntu [13:14] sylario: ubuntu comes installed with vim-tiny by default. If that isn't enough (maybe it doesn't come with clipboard support) you can always sudo apt install vim [13:14] Okay i get thats an option, but is there any way to install ubuntu with its own boatloader that can add windows ? [13:14] thanks for your help, i did not learned what i expected but i still learn a little bit more on vim [13:14] like nearly every other distro out there [13:14] FireStriker, well it all depends on the needs, with Linux a good thing is you can run it without the desktop environment at all if you just need something to be a server of some sort, then it isn't wasting resources on things it doesn't need to do, aside from that just how useful is it to you [13:15] FireStriker, most people spend a majority of their time in a browser in that case just having a stable system that doesn't always reboot itself and starts up quickly is usually considered good but it's all subjective :) [13:15] Panther96: if you install ubuntu normally, you can select through the installation to "install alongside windows". That should set up grub to let you choose OS at startup. [13:16] but if windows MBR is messed up, you should repair it first using a windows recovery disk [13:16] Okay makes sense, I was just confused because my installer says Install ubuntu alongside Windows Boot Manager, which is why I was confused [13:16] brunch875: I am (a webdev) in the process of learning all i can on cli tools, to be able to do everything from a shell (in case of emergency?) thx again [13:17] FireStriker, there are various standalone launcher things too that will effectively act as a start menu launcher but can't recall the name of the one I used off hand [13:17] but thanks I'm going to go ahead and attempt to salvage my windows MBR [13:17] sylario: that's great. I personally do all of that from the cli myself. If you need any more help with vim you can always join #vim and ask around there [13:18] in kde there's quicklaunch [13:18] FireStriker, ah think it was "gnome do" but there may be similar things for LXDE and the like [13:18] Oh nice the keyboard short cuts work now [13:18] brunch875: probably when i'll want to set colors for an exotic markup language ^^ [13:20] 1.2gb is good for watching 720p [13:20] I have 2gb ram btw [13:20] It looks smooth [13:20] Feels smooth [13:20] I think it's much better than lubuntu [13:21] FireStriker, which version is that? [13:22] LTS [13:22] FireStriker, typically you're okay on the RAM until you run out and it starts using swap, think video performance is mostly effected by the GPU or CPU if it isn't using GPU acceleration [13:22] What's swap? [13:23] FireStriker, when your computer runs out of RAM it will typically use some space on your hard drive called swap space to act like RAM but it's way slower for the processor to access stuff then because it has to swap it back and forth between the hard drive and RAM [13:23] Ok [13:23] FireStriker, in the terminal if you type, free -m it will show you how much ram is used/free along with swap [13:24] the -m does it in megabytes [13:24] Ok was just looking at task manager [13:24] I would use free -h [13:25] brunch875, ah that is better === mpumalanga_ is now known as mpumalanga [13:33] While the installer is installing can I have the task manager open? [13:34] i need to resize my / partition. i have a 120gb ssd. / is 10gb and 6gb free at the end. and then there's an extended partition with /home and swap. i need to make / bigger to upgrade to the latest distro [13:34] FireStriker, yes [13:34] OY1R, try gparted on a live session [13:35] hello fans i'm still here! [13:36] If I need to can I increase the partition? [13:37] FireStriker, when you started the installer, don't mess with it. [13:37] so many zombies joined the channel [13:37] ubmt, don't worry about join/parts [13:38] OerHeks,but i worried about spam [13:38] did i spam the channel? [13:38] I am wondering if I need to in the future after the installer finishes [13:38] Hi, can someone pls help me enable 2 fingers scroll in my touchpad? [13:39] ubmt: here's a little guide for that http://wiki.xkcd.com/irc/Hide_join_part_messages === Smn is now known as Guest80886 [13:39] Can you set up two finger scrol on a touchpad that doesn't have it? [13:40] FireStriker: if the touchpad can only detect one finger at a time, it's going to be a bit impossible :p === galeido_ is now known as galeido [13:40] brunch875, FireStriker, my touchpad has it. It works on windows [13:42] yes,you tube i watch [13:42] someone235, systemsettings > mouse & touchpad should have that option [13:42] Mine doesn't I think it can detect 2 fingers don't know it did have a finger on side scrolling but that broke when I updated to win 7 from vista [13:43] FireStriker: the finger on side should work without trouble. Just check the system settings [13:43] K [13:46] OerHeks, here it is: http://i.imgur.com/a2JgOCE.png . I don't see that option [13:46] btw, any scrolling will be good, not just 2 fingers [13:48] someone235, that page is set to a mouse, rog sica, change that to your touchpad perhaps? [13:48] 'device' [13:49] i don;'t have xubuntu myself, so cannot check on it [13:49] ikevin, is it just a matter of dragging the extended partition to the end and the resizing the / ? [13:50] OerHeks, this is my devices: http://pastie.org/private/o2qtkzewdt9tryo7rtm68q# [13:51] OY1R, yes [13:51] OerHeks, and I don't have this option in any of them [13:51] ikevin, allright ill give it a shot.

[16:58] NOVATechies: I know but it is out. [16:59] Maxaroth: not officially. [16:59] k [16:59] bringing up 17.04 alfa is not helpfull. [17:00] wait why did you want the details? [17:01] OerHeks: 17.04 development branch is not always stable I thought [17:01] There's no reason to bring up 17.04 in this channel. If you want to discuss 17.04 issues, take it to #ubuntu+1. This channel is for supporting current releases only [17:02] xXEoflaOEXx, you wanted the details [17:02] Maxaroth: If the dialog box appeared about internal error, Look for Details button and then please wait to see more details [17:03] oooh [17:03] random crashed should be in your logs, syslog.1 kern.log.1 dmesg.0 [17:03] i thought you ment the system details [17:04] Maxaroth: I did not mean the system details, wait for a minute [17:04] k well i have to wait for the box to come up again [17:11] update support ?

[17:19] Pici: Yes, it is not [17:19] i don t understand kylin [17:19] Hello! Does anyone know, why the latest Ubuntu14LTS update would want to change /etc/sudoers [17:19] Southern_Gentlem: isnt there a command to get the list of ports that are open in the firewall, and then subtract the ones that services are listening on? [17:19] Maxaroth, just ask, wait and see [17:20] sudo: Normally, the update will prompt whether to accept the changes, so you can have a look? === SuperSeriousCat is now known as Lorakcs [17:20] and i you chose that ubuntu? you are japonese? or something === for{} is now known as WeComeOne [17:21] The updates window showed empty - which is suspicious.. So I did not apply changes. Can I see the proposed change somewhere, and the reason? === Loracks is now known as rany [17:21] Southern_Gentlem: what happens when a service tries to listen on the same port as another service thats already listening? [17:22] lsof [17:22] fqtw, sudo netstat -tulpn [17:22] or net-stat [17:22] Southern_Gentlem: that gets the list of services listening but how to get the list of open ports in the firewall? [17:23] fqtw, sudo ufw status [17:23] sudo: There's "apt-get changelog sudo" [17:24] hmm [17:24] sry, got disconnected [17:24] Southern_Gentlem: that gets the list of services listening but how to get the list of open ports in the firewall? [17:24] I'm having a bit of a problem. I'm using 4 monitor setup, in which one monitor is on portrait mode [17:25] the thing is that icons on my desktop that should be on the main monitor go outside of the monitor to the height where the portrait mode monitors height would be [17:26] and then at the bottom they go under outside the main monitor the same amount [17:27] anyone encountered the same problem [17:27] fqtw_:when there is an open port there is a service attached too it, there is no such thing as open port without a service.. [17:28] i'm using 16.04 with unity [17:28] you can scan for open ports (services) with nmap [17:28] It is the service that opens a port [17:28] Mathisen: got it.. ufw is active. Now what was the site to copy-paste text from ufw log [17:29] sudo, ? [17:30] Mathisen: to share you the log from "netstat -tulpn" [17:30] sudo, cat you just look yourself.. you should see listening ports there [17:30] cant* [17:31] otherwise > https://paste.ubuntu.com/ === fqtw__ is now known as fqtw [17:31] whats a good way to set env vars like db password for a server? so that other users on the system cant see them [17:32] or sudo apt install pastebinit && sudo ufw status | pastebinit [17:33] Mathisen: right.. that was it. see http://pastebin.com/GhUewtr7 === Lorakcs is now known as SuperSeriousCat [17:35] fqtw: you don't set db passwords in the environment [17:35] nacc: then how? [17:37] Hey all, how can I upgrade an Ubuntu MATE 16.04 install to 16.10? [17:43] if my server needs db credentials in env vars, should i set them in .bash_profile ? [17:43] what db [17:45] Southern_Gentlem: postgres [17:45] but it doesnt matter what db [17:45] other credentials too [17:45] not just db [17:47] Hi all - I'm trying to make a metapackage deb for some custom stuff I'm working on, but I'd like it to not suggest autoremoving all the packages if a user removes one of the packages in the metapackage. [17:47] (e.g., if the metapacakge pulls in A and B, and the user removes A, apt suggests/will autoremove B.) [17:47] Isn't that the desired behaviour? If a user has already manually installed a package, removing the metapackage won't affect it [17:48] (asi I understand it, anyway) [17:49] applepi: that's the way metapackages work. It will suggest removing them, but only remove them if told to do so [17:49] Well it recommends removing the metapackage AND all the packages it pulled down. [17:49] applepi: yes, that's how apt works [17:50] applepi: apt suggests removing packages that you didn't explicitly install when the thing you did explicitly install has been removed === KingsQuest is now known as k-r4d [17:53] applepi: if the user want different behaviour, (s)he can use apt-mark [17:54] mcphail: oooh. interesting. [17:54] I'll take a look at that, I've never seen apt-mark before. [17:57] applepi: I'm vaguely aware there are other ways users can tweak the default behaviour of apt to preserve or remove automatically installed packages [17:58] hi [17:59] vemium: Welcome! Ask your question, please. [18:02] was about to ask to remove something but found it here: /usr/lib/firefox/distribution/searchplugins/locale/../google.xml [18:06] hey folks I am running ubuntu 16.10 and forgot my mysql password so I removed it and did a fresh install of sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.7 but this is the following error I am getting http://sprunge.us/dPPE any idea how to fix this ? [18:09] How do i enable a custom keymap at the login screen? [18:09] G3nka1, run the journalctl command there to get more details [18:11] Any suggestions on that? [18:12] Can you run xmodmap at the login screen? [18:12] TheNH813, what are you trying to accomplish in particular? === tomreyn_ is now known as tomreyn [18:13] Enable a variant of the colemak keymap at the login screen. [18:15] TheNH813, think ubuntu is using xkb, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Custom%20keyboard%20layout%20definitions?action=show&redirect=Howto%3A+Custom+keyboard+layout+definitions looks like there may be a built in keymap for it https://colemak.com/Unix [18:15] TheNH813, would guess since that's directly in X it would be enabled/working as soon as X itself is started but dunno [18:16] I'l look at that, thanks. [18:18] TheNH813, no prob let me know how that works out, haven't messed with xkb myself [18:19] I find xkb to be rather messy. But, Il figure it out. [18:23] HI there, i need help with my ubuntu [18:23] !ask | vemium [18:23] vemium: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [18:23] vemium let's hear it, in one line [18:24] TheNH813: iirc, you could configure the keymap the x server will use in an xorg.conf snippet under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d [18:24] I just installed ubuntu mate, it's not accepting my password [18:24] Few times worked [18:25] Is numlock on? [18:25] vemium, try it with CAPS on? incase CAPS was on when you entered it first time [18:25] vemium: So you are entering the wrong password. Check wether caps lock is pressed, check numlock too. === Drunkwizard is now known as Internaut [18:25] still doesn't work [18:26] So its still the wrong password. [18:26] vemium: I suggest booting a live cd and resetting your password. [18:26] ducasse: Yeah, using xorg.conf.d is what i intend to. [18:26] Yes, i used sudo command to install something, and it worked and after that i doesnt [18:27] vemium, a reinstall isn't a big deal really. sure, you can follow bekks' suggestion and you WILL learn something. but if you are intimidated by that, reinstall and write the pass down. :P [18:27] vemium, you mean after the 2nd sudo you didn't get the password line? [18:28] there is a timer that allows sudo to be executed, 5 minutes iirc [18:29] After second sudo every time i enter it it is wrong password [18:30] ducasse: Basically, for ergonomic reasons I wanted dvorak or colemak. Turns out colemak was better for me as ZXCV are in the same place. And you know, undo cut copy paste shortcuts are important. Looks like /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d dosen't exist. Do I put a folder of file there? [18:31] dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd [18:31] I am 100% certain that i enter correct one, i was hoping for quicker solution than that [18:31] TheNH813: just put a valid snippet there [18:31] ??? [18:31] TheNH813: (in a file) [18:31] Wnat's with the random spam? [18:32] TheNH813: MonkeyDust dropped a cat on his keyboard. [18:32] LOL [18:32] duncasse: Ok, will do. [18:33] TheNH813: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d itself is a dir, though (as indicated by the .d) [18:33] Ah, ok, wasnt sure, but thought so. Thanks [18:35] duncasse: Would I just put a file with the usual: [18:35] Section "InputDevice" [18:35] In it? [18:36] TheNH813: yes, that should be it. [18:43] Hi. Ubuntu 16.10. I've noticed this on desktop as well as server. This seems to be the stock settings in both distros(server/desktop). http://i.imgur.com/AbLPL00.png -- Do I need to have the hourly one since it is running nothing? does this do-nothing task spin up a hdd on a server? Curious. [18:44] cd /etc/cron.daily/ [18:44] ls [18:44] ... [18:44] Guest41925: no, it doesn't. and you should leave it there so that if you install something that does take advatage of cron.hourly, that it actually runs. [18:46] Pici, why did you suggest ls of that dir? unless I missed something, i don't understand the relevance. Thanks. [18:46] Guest41925: I forgot which window I was typing it, it wasn't a suggestion. [18:46] ah ok === WeComeOne is now known as fourKrulz [19:01] In your opinions, what's the best frontend for setting up a samba network thingy? [19:01] FoeHammered: vi [19:01] FoeHammered, huh? frontend? [19:02] FoeHammered: In other words... use a text editor to edit it's .conf file [19:02] FoeHammered, if you ask me, edit smb.conf [19:02] I mean to say, I think I've tried the "vi" approach and fallen short for lack of a clear understanding of what I'm doing. Which probably means I should learn more or not do it, but there's a lot of convenience to having the ability to just drag and drop folders and files back and forth. [19:03] Like, I managed to make it work once, then never had it work again. [19:03] So I'm hoping for something that'll do the work for me, at least once, competently. [19:03] FoeHammered, i strongly suggest setting up in a text editor. It will somewhat force you to comprehend what is going on. [19:04] Guest41925, Well, thing is, I really have tried that, followed the instructions, and it just didn't work. [19:04] Guest41925, So I figure I could do it the hard way and have it not work and I learn nothing again, or I could do it an easy way and have it work and maybe learn something. [19:04] FoeHammered, well you can start by pasting your smb.conf to pastebin and posting the URL here [19:05] FoeHammered, https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/samba-server-ubuntu-16-04/ [19:05] Well, it dosen't work. X ignores keyboard settings in /etc/X11 [19:05] Guest41925, It's been a few reinstalls since I tried, so I'll do that if I find it. [19:05] I do have a no-BS smb.conf file I keep around. but it is mainly for those who just want a share. darn the torpedoes. [19:05] I did find a way that works though. Anything set in text input settings appears on the login screen. How do I register a custom keymap into that? [19:06] * FoeHammered nods. [19:06] * reisio nods betterer [19:06] I put it in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols but it dosen't show up in text entry settinbgs [19:06] Guest41925, may I see said file, so that I can learn from it? [19:06] FoeHammered, sure.. swec. [19:07] * FoeHammered clicks the tutorial link, too. [19:07] FoeHammered, n.b. in that link 'useradd till -G smbgrp' i think is wrong, use usermod [19:08] Well. That wouldn't help... [19:08] Noted, thanks, ioria. [19:08] FoeHammered, yrwlc [19:08] I am trying to install a disk image of ubuntu 16.04 and it asks me if i want to burn it as a file or just the contents which do I choose [19:09] Burn it with rufus [19:10] FoeHammered, http://pastebin.com/Chu1cepd [19:10] ducasse: You still there? How do I make a keymap appear in text input settings now? The xorg.conf.d method didn't work, but I noticed anything set in text entry settings also shows up at the login screen. [19:10] Guest41925, Gracias. [19:11] hi [19:11] I put it in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols, but it won't show up. [19:15] I do not have rufus installed all that I have is Brasero [19:15] r063r1: use dd [19:15] like a man [19:15] lol [19:15] sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M && sync [19:16] :D [19:16] hey === linus is now known as Guest32792 === rizzy is now known as riz0n [19:19] r063r1, if you do use dd, feel free to post the command here BEFORE you issue it. === lelouch is now known as Guest84251 [19:24] dd is overrated [19:24] 90% of things people use dd for, cp works just fine [19:25] Hello ! I'm in a real need of help to setup my samba server running in ubuntu 16.04.1. I finally got it working and can access it from all dekstops (windows & macs) on the network, but none of them can write on the share. I checked dozens of topics on internet about permissions, etc., but I couldn't find what is wrong with my setup === blackhole is now known as Guest88617 [19:25] what is dd [19:26] eric\ [19:26] hello al [19:26] all [19:26] My share is a on a second HD (mounted /dev/disk/by-uuid/62bd0d6c-a140-408d-a292-c91812b40e75 /media/odin/ARCDD auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0 ) [19:28] my smb.conf is : [ARCDD] path = /media/odin/ARCDD public = yes force user = filesharing valid users = filesharing revalidate = yes read only = no create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 [19:28] r063r1, man dd [19:28] the whole /media/odin/ARCDD is owned by filesharing, group is sambashare, filesharing is in sambashare group [19:28] Random832, so using cp to dump an .iso is practical? Yeah....... [19:29] To try, it also have 777 permissions on all files... yet I can't delete or add a file to the samba share from other desktops on the network [19:29] Would be really grateful is someone could help :x [19:29] Guest41925: i'd be concerned for timing issues with writing to disk, but i wouldn't use dd either.

I noticed some days ago that a abnormal activity happens on my disk. So, there are a continuous loop creation of a file called atril-thumbnailer inside /tmp directory. [22:35] In about 1 hours is suffisant to be created thousands of files like this [22:37] !info atril xanial [22:37] 'xanial' is not a valid distribution: kubuntu-backports, kubuntu-experimental, kubuntu-updates, partner, precise, precise-backports, precise-proposed, stable, testing, trusty, trusty-backports, trusty-proposed, unstable, utopic, utopic-backports, utopic-proposed, vivid, vivid-backports, vivid-proposed, wily, wily-backports, wily-proposed, xenial, xenial-backports, xenial-proposed, yakkety, yakkety-backports, yakkety-proposed, zesty, zesty-backports, zesty [22:37] !info atril xenial [22:37] atril (source: atril): MATE document viewer.

[22:39] marcelomauro: A thought ,, is atril in a startup process somewhere ? [22:41] Bashing-om, I just dont know. Everything start to happen two days ago [22:41] and my system gets slowly [22:42] I would to know if I need o reinstall the system [22:43] marcelomauro: Maybe read through the boot log - journalctl -b -0 - see if there is a hint of where atril is getting started ?? [22:44] marcelomauro: So far all we are looking at is re-configure atril . [22:45] * emil__ [22:47] Hi all. I have installed Ubuntu Mate 16.10, AppArmor 2.10.95-4ubuntu5.1, QEMU emulator version 2.6.1, libvirtd (libvirt) 2.1.0. I'm create shared directory with virt-manager and successfully mount it inside guest. But i cannot nor write nor `ls' inside it. How to fix it? [22:49] but I'm afraid that everything comes back before that [22:51] Bashing-om, See: A lot of lines like this: Out 28 19:49:49 mach1 kernel: traps: atril-thumbnail[8084] general protection ip:7f2018d6ab2c sp:7ffcf78728c0 error:0 in libcairo.so.2.11400.6[7f2018d33000+10e000] [22:51] Out 28 19:49:49 mach1 kernel: traps: atril-thumbnail[8093] general protection ip:7f529d83fb2c sp:7ffd8ff464e0 error:0 in libcairo.so.2.11400.6[7f529d808000+10e000] [22:52] What do I have to do? [22:53] marcelomauro: I do not know what to advise as I do not know how atril is started . [22:53] eu__: maybe it is mounted write protected? [22:54] eu__: into the VM, that is [22:54] oh wait you can't ls either [22:54] eu__: sounds like issues with permissions. make sure the user runnning the qemu process has RW access to the files shared [22:55] Bashing-om, Can I stop this process or remove this aplication? [22:56] in /etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/*.files i can see string '"/tmp/share/" r,' [22:56] @kicksled, @tomreyn does it matter? [22:57] eu__: you could try the steps descrbied here to see if you get it sorted http://askubuntu.com/a/822309 [22:57] marcelomauro: I do not think you can remove it until you stop the process . what returns ' ps -e | grep atril ' ; As a place to start hunting . [22:58] @kicksled it's apparmor! [22:58] @kicksled after service was stopped, i can ls and touch in share [22:59] Bashing-om, It shows this: 13744 ? 00:00:00 atril-thumbnail === mmmmmm is now known as piski_po_meni [23:00] @kicksled thx === Zachary_DuBois is now known as officerpewpew === officerpewpew is now known as Zachary_DuBois === flugger_g is now known as flugger [23:15] how can my cron job guess a suitable DISPLAY environment variable to show its message on my current X session? I used to snoop on xfce4-panel's environment with ps, but now ps reports just a dash for all my processes. [23:18] Sven_vB, the environment variable DISPLAY ? [23:18] th0r, yes [23:18] oh, I meant to guess a suitable value for it [23:19] Sven_vB, echo $DISPLAY should show the current display [23:19] yeah, from within my X session, that works. cron jobs however don't have that set. [23:19] that's why in the past I spied on panel's environment [23:20] Sven_vB: what kind of message? [23:20] tgm4883, gxmessage. or any other graphical program I'd like to start. [23:21] oh actually the cron job also needs to check wmctrl's window list first, to decide whether to show the message [23:22] Sven_vB: oh, I was going to suggest you use the built in notification stuff but it sounds like that won't work for you [23:24] Anyone know what the LXDE default Debian theme is as would love to have that theme in Lubuntu === CompuDesktop is now known as Compu [23:27] How do I upgrade my graphic card drivers? [23:33] Gents, is the latest desktop ubuntu friendly with a radeon r9 200 series? === flugger_c is now known as flugger [23:34] https://goo.gl/vBpaQM [23:34] mariogrip: We can try this, if ya willing. activate a terminal ' ctl+alt+t ' kill the atril process ' sudo kill 13744 ; sudo apt purge atril ' . reboot and see now if atril starts back up (??) . [23:37] R13ose: Generally on linux you do not upgrade drivers - this ain't Windows - as the kernel takes care of that . But what graphic's set(s) are you running ' lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D' ' ? [23:37] hi [23:37] sarek: we don't need/want that sort of post, thanks [23:38] LVLAaron: see if this helps ... http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMD-Radeon-GPU-PRO-Linux-Beta-Driver%E2%80%93Release-Notes.aspx [23:38] Bashing-om: thanks. http://pastebin.com/kMgKdhxr [23:39] Thank you ambassador ikonia [23:39] no problem [23:39] yeah, but does it work? [23:39] Installing a driver doesn't = works very well [23:42] R13ose: That shows Intel as the driver, and the i915 driver. Intel provides the driver in the kernel. there should be nothing else you can or should do . Is there a present issue ?? [23:42] Bashing-om: yes there is. [23:44] In KDE, this is not redrawing, firefox, chromium tabs, and plank dock icons sometimes. When I have tabs open then move one to the other or even scroll down, I need to go to another window before that loads. Any ideas? [23:44] hello guys [23:44] :) [23:45] so i have one problem with my driver of intel, im have intel hd 4000 and my os not detecting that [23:45] R13ose: Seems a desktop issue .. I do not use or know KDE. perhaps others here can offer an opinion . [23:46] Bashing-om: I am in here because KDE is not giving me any answers [23:47] R13ose: K; To be here to ask is OK .. but I just have no familiarity with KDE, others here perhaps ? [23:48] DEFCODE: What leads you to think the Intel driver is not loading ? === rizzy is now known as riz0n [23:49] @bashing-om Yep, that not loading. [23:50] Bashing-om: everyone says this is the graphic card and not the desktop [23:51] DEFCODE: Show in a pastebin ' sudo lshw -C display ' please . [23:52] https://i.imgsafe.org/3e49b5ff0a.png [23:52] picture of text?? [23:52] R13ose: K well . One can read what X think's ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log ' But the system shows the driver loaded .
