[00:29] <JeffHoogland> So I've followed the directions here for installing my TP-Link A600 USB wireless card on ubuntu 16.04, but it says "device not managed" in my network manager. These steps worked on Ubuntu 14.04. Any suggestions for what to try to get this wireless card to work? http://askubuntu.com/questions/726569/tp-link-ac600-driver-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts-x64
[00:45] <neldogz> I have an rsync ingore file specified like this: --exclude-from=/opt/rsync/ignore_list     where .phoronix-test-suite is in that ingore_list but its not being ignored. Other folders like .adobe are being ignored. What gives?
[00:46] <maddawg2> hey guys.. so i signed up for a vpn service provider that uses IKEv2 as the protocol, I'm trying to figure out how one can connect to this protocol in ubuntu 16.04 Desktop
[00:47] <deweydb> how do i fix this?

[00:51] <Bashing-om> deweydb: A PPA ? What is installed ' apt-cache policy ffmpeg libavcodec57 ' in a pastebin site, please, see what the story here is .
[00:54] <deweydb> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23405081/
[00:55] <th0r> maddawg2, ike looks to be part of the ipsec protocol
[00:58] <Bashing-om> deweydb: Well, we are dealing with a PPA .. ( PPAs are not supported in this channel ) .. What results ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo apt -f install ' ?
[00:59] <deweydb> -f sounds scary... i'm not going to pooch stuff by doing that?
[01:01] <Bashing-om> deweydb: Should not breaj anything . update the data base, upgrade installed packages - if possible ..and then  -f to  " fix-broken " might work .
[01:01] <Bashing-om> break*
[01:03] <deweydb> didn't seem to do much
[01:04] <deweydb> it seems like its just stuck on something silly
[01:04] <deweydb> all the pacakges are saying: Depends: libavutil55 (>= 7:3.2) but 7:3.2-0~16.04.york0 is to be installed
[01:04] <deweydb> literally this is the same version, but titled differently
[01:05] <Bashing-om> deweydb: "didn't seem to do much" does not help to see the problem .. what are the commands results ?

[01:08] <jamie_1> i dont feel like doing it individually... would take forever
[01:10] <Bashing-om> deweydb: Now try ' sudo apt full-upgrade ' see if it will address this " packages have been kept back >> libavcodec-extra " .
[01:12] <deweydb> that package continues to be held back

[01:14] <DonaldTrump> hahaha

[01:23] <jamie_1> weird... im doing a do-release-upgrade -d and im on 16.04 and its not find diddly crap...
[01:24] <deweydb> Bashing-om: nope. for example: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23405171/
[01:24] <maddawg2> for the life of me i cant figure out how to get strongswan to work in 16.04
[01:24] <Bashing-om> jamie_1: ' grep Prompt= /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades ' is set to get what ?
[01:24] <maddawg2> the network-manager-strongswan doesnt show up in network-manager
[01:25] <maddawg2> it's suppose to show there
[01:25] <jamie_1> oh :/ its set to lts... but i thought the -d flag would all it to go to 17.04
[01:26] <jamie_1> *allow it to go to
[01:27] <Bashing-om> deweydb: So, now a separate issue with ' libswresample2 ' ?
[01:27] <jamie_1> i set it to any
[01:27] <maddawg2> sheesh 17.04 cant even get 16.04 working correctly with half my stuff
[01:27] <maddawg2> sheesh
[01:28] <maddawg2> i knew i should have switched to debian
[01:28] <maddawg2> now that seals the deal
[01:28] <deweydb> its a whole wackload of packages, all that support ffmpeg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23405186/
[01:30] <deweydb> i don't know how to describe this exactly, i don't know the parts of a version number are called, but for example. it will have a requirement for version (>= 7:3.2) of a package, but the PPA provides 7:3.2-0~16.04.york0 which technically is fulfilling that requirement, it is >= 7:3.2 but the part at the end of the package version (-0~16.04.york0) is confusing the package manager
[01:30] <deweydb> is there some way i can say to apt "
[01:31] <deweydb> "hey apt, this satisfies the requirements, just accept it"
[01:31] <Bashing-om> deweydb: K' did you purge ffmpeg prior to attempting to install it ( I see no --reinstall switch) ?
[01:31] <helpme_> what are my option on installing ubuntu? im currently running it from usb but get an error when i try to hit install
[01:32] <alex97> what error?
[01:32] <deweydb> Bashing-om: purging does not make a difference, its still confused about those package versions: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23405200/
[01:32] <helpme_> sorry ubuntu 16.04 experienced an internal error
[01:35] <helpme_> when i click to add a partition it just disappears or gives me that erro0r
[01:35] <helpme_> also cannot boot windows anymore
[01:36] <Bashing-om> deweydb: Checking . be back soonest .
[01:36] <alex97> What version of windows do you have?
[01:36] <helpme_> 10
[01:36] <alex97> Probably you have active UEFI Mode
[01:36] <helpme_> will check and be back
[01:38] <deweydb> Bashing-om: i gave up, and found a different PPA
[01:38] <deweydb> and it worked
[01:39] <Bashing-om> deweydb: Great ! was looking at libavcodec57 OR libavcodec-extra57 installed, but not both .
[01:40] <alex97> Anyone have try to install CPanel on Ubuntu?
[01:40] <alex97> *tried

[01:44] <helpme_> back i saw nothing in bios about uefi
[01:44] <helpme_> just want to get ubuntu installed
[01:45] <helpme_> idk why i can run from usb but not install
[01:45] <helpme_> and for some reason the default language seems to be chinese
[01:47] <helpme_> is there any flavor of linux i can install from lan?
[01:48] <lordcirth> helpme_, most allow PXE booting
[01:48] <helpme_> please explain ?
[01:48] <helpme_> pxe?
[01:48] <lordcirth> helpme_, it's not easy to set up
[01:48] <lordcirth> PXE lets you boot an OS over your ethernet port
[01:49] <helpme_> ok i googled , have you done it before?\
[01:50] <helpme_> or any ideas why i cant seem to install from usb ?
[01:51] <helpme_> i think it might have something to do with disabling my hdd to boot from usb, because i didnt see usb as an option in the boot priority list ?
[01:53] <helpme_> brb gonna play around in bios
[01:59] <rhl> where can you ask about writing debian packages?
[02:03] <minimec> rhl: Ou want to create a deb package? http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html
[02:04] <helpme_> ok so enabling the hdd helped once i figured out how to hit f4 to be able to pick what device to boot from something to do with hp software , now how should i partition my drive to save all windows data but install ubuntu as the primary os
[02:05] <lordcirth> helpme_, shrink Windows, install beside it.  Doesn't the installer have an automatic feature for that?
[02:06] <helpme_> no not really , i know it used to in earlier versions but now it gives me an option to erase all data or create my own partitions however i like ,
[02:06] <helpme_> thing is , i know nothing about partitions because they used to let you use a slider
[02:06] <helpme_> not sure why taking away that feature was beneficial
[02:07] <minimec> helpme_: This seams to be a good guide... http://www.everydaylinuxuser.com/2014/05/install-ubuntu-1404-alongside-windows.html
[02:08] <helpme_> thx so much ill check it out
[02:09] <rhl> minimec: I have been reading stuff like that. I am trying to package something which depends on MPI. In particular, I want to have two subpackages for MPICH and OpenMPI. I've gotten the control file written I believe, but i'm not sure how to specify the dual builds in the rules file. On redhat systems there are MPI Macros in the spec files. Not sure if there is somethign similar for debian, and I can't find the documentation..
[02:10] <minimec> helpme_: the official guide... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[02:10] <helpme_> damn the steps involved being able to shirink the windows partion from windows which i am currently unable to boot from due, to booting from liveusb ubuntu somehow? tried to run a windows bootfixer (from linux) and then it messed up the boot even worse
[02:10] <helpme_> before it would just time out
[02:11] <helpme_> thx minimec ill check it out
[02:15] <JeffHoogland> So I've followed the directions here for installing my TP-Link A600 USB wireless card on ubuntu 16.04, but it says "device not managed" in my network manager.

[02:15] <minimec> rhl: You would do that in the 'Depends:' line. Now... I cannot tell you how to handle that, if the dependencies are some of your own subpackages. I have never done that.
[02:15] <helpme_> problem solved thanks minimec ,
[02:16] <debkad> me too
[02:16] <rhl> minimec: no I have the depends worked out, what I am saying is that i need to build twice, once for each subpackage.
[02:16] <rhl> because i have an MPICH version and an OpenMPI version
[02:18] <minimec> rhl: Oh... That's beyond my knowledge... ;) I did some basic packaging, but nothing really complicated.
[02:19] <erpo_> I am totally new to creating deb packages and trying to troubleshoot a deb that does not appear to be building properly. In the debian/ directory of the source tree, there is a patches/ subdirectory, which contains a .patch file in diff format. I think it should be applied before the package is built, but when I install the package I see that the patch hasn't been applied. Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this issue?
[02:21] <minimec> erpo_: Have you checked this? http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/patches-to-packages.html
[02:22] <rhl> minimec: thanks anyways :)
[02:22] <erpo_> minimec: I haven't yet, but it looks useful. Thanks for the link.

[02:32] <pizzaops> So I've been using Ubuntu for years now (since 5.04 maybe?) and one thing I've noticed is that in all these years, even despite having a custom DE (unity), there's still no obvious way to log out or reboot and haev Ubuntu gracefully quit applications instead of just killing them all. Mac and Windows try to actually quit your applications first. Any thoughts?
[02:32] <pizzaops> Any hacks/workarounds for this?
[02:32] <pizzaops> like maybe an app that quits all other apps when you quit it, that launches at login or something
[02:34] <giovoni> thanks for the share
[02:34] <giovoni> Bashing-om, Pici
[02:36] <giovoni> pizzaops, i think there is a way to do this
[02:37] <pizzaops> giovoni: go on!
[02:37] <giovoni> don't know off the top of my head how, but i vaguely remember reading something in regards to that
[02:37] <pizzaops> giovoni: cool, I'll do some more googling then
[02:37] <pizzaops> or maybe a forum post
[02:37] <Jordan_U> pizzaops: There are apps that can stop the logout process. For example Gedit will stop the logout process if a file is open and changes to it haven't been saved.

[02:44] <ThePotato> Bashing-om: how do i fix/check it
[02:45] <Jordan_U> ThePotato: Is your machine UEFI based or BIOS based?
[02:45] <ThePotato> i dont know
[02:45] <Bashing-om> ThePotato: How about we look at the drive from the liveUSB . pastebin ' sudo parted -l ' . See what we can do to re-install grub to that drive .
[02:47] <ThePotato> http://pastebin.com/thSVcQ4C
[02:49] <Jordan_U> ThePotato: How old is this computer?
[02:49] <ThePotato> like 5-6 mo
[02:50] <Jordan_U> ThePotato: Then it almost certainly is UEFI based. Were you given multiple options for booting the Ubuntu LiveUSB? It looks like it was booted via BIOS/CSM but to install for UEFI you need to boot the installer via UEFI.
[02:50] <Bashing-om> ThePotato: I do not know here, we bow to Jordan_U .. SRT at play here ?

[03:05] <ThePotato> and then i put it on legacy
[03:05] <ThePotato> and then i used the boot menu and it labled the usb under legacy
[03:06] <Jordan_U> ThePotato: OK. You definitely want UEFI if at all possible. Please try booting the installer via UEFI and report back exactly what problem there is when you do, and hopefully we can find a better oslution for the problem than booting in legacy mode.

[03:59] <cfhowlett> k_sze[work], better asked in #ubuntu-server or #networking
[03:59] <wudu_honour> You can use static ip to renew
[04:00] <cfhowlett> wudu_honour, ?  OK me = confused.  I thought static IP was ... static, i.e. non-changing?
[04:00] <toyman> Lol am i in?
[04:00] <cfhowlett> toyman, ask your ubuntu support questios
[04:01] <toyman> I need help with a monitor backlight brightness.
[04:01] <toyman> It gets to zero if i press a key after some idle.
[04:01] <toyman> At least i would like to know what is the daemon that is in charge of it.
[04:02] <wudu_honour> cfhowlett , you must kown how the DHCP work if you want to change you IP!
[04:02] <matju> hi... help. "apt-get autoremove" just got stuck. It's uninstalling old kernels, and while running grub, it seems to have run umount -l, which has been in D state for several minutes. I don't know why it's trying to umount anything at all.
[04:05] <toyman> I need the name of a daemon that is lowering my display's backlight brightness. It has a bug the causes the brightness to drop to zero.
[04:05] <matju> ... what do I do ?
[04:05] <cfhowlett> matju, open a terminal tab and PS -x
[04:06] <cfhowlett> see if any processes have gone zombie
[04:11] <xly> life
[04:12] <matju> cfhowlett, no zombies. and «umount -l» is unrelated, after all, at least as «ps -afx» can tell (though it's stuck anyway). It was started by udisksd. Apt is stuck running «/etc/grub.d/30_os-prober», particularly «blkid -o export /dev/sda1»
[04:13] <matju> ... blkid is D
[04:13] <cfhowlett> matju, do you have any other read/write going to that disk??
[04:13] <matju> D+ actually
[04:15] <matju> not sure what it is, normally my main HD appeared as /dev/sda, but now it's /dev/sdb
[04:16] <cfhowlett> matju, that is ... not comforting.  Have you got a USB plugged in or something?  and/or encryption?
[04:18] <CheetahPixie> Goodmorning people.
[04:18] <CheetahPixie> I am having an issue with upgrading to Yakkety from Xenial.
[04:18] <pero> looking to disable tap to click on my laptop - disabled it in settings but it still tap clicks (16.10)
[04:19] <CheetahPixie> No matter what I do, what configs I make, or pretty much whatever else, I can't seem to get do-release-upgrade to upgrade to Yakkety.
[04:19] <cfhowlett> CheetahPixie, current OS?
[04:19] <cfhowlett> nvm
[04:19] <CheetahPixie> I've tried setting that one option from LTS to normal, changing mirrors (I am in Iceland), and even running something exotic, nothing happened. I am currently on Xenial.
[04:20] <matju> cfhowlett, no encryption. I have no /dev/sda at all at the moment. I have several usb drives. Apparently, my /dev/sda was a hard disk that I thought was mounted but isn't. I don't know what happened.
[04:20] <cfhowlett> CheetahPixie, run a terminal command for addition: sudo do-release-upgrade
[04:20] <CheetahPixie> I did that many, many many times.
[04:20] <cfhowlett> CheetahPixie, and the error msg?
[04:20] <CheetahPixie> "no new releases found"
[04:21] <cfhowlett> CheetahPixie, lsb_release -a        returns ... what?
[04:21] <CheetahPixie> 16.04.1.
[04:22] <CheetahPixie> I have tested an upgrade from UK and US mirrors to no avail. I am currently on Icelandic mirrors, for the particular reason they don't charge for inter-country internet traffic at all, but that's moot with a 300GB data cap. Speeds however are not.
[04:23] <matju> cfhowlett, if you have no other ideas, do you think it's time to try a reboot ?
[04:23] <CheetahPixie> Any ideas, cfhowlett ?
[04:23] <cfhowlett> matju, sadly no bright ideas ... well wait ...
[04:24] <cfhowlett> matju, you could boot a USB, chroot to your system and run the autoremove
[04:24] <cfhowlett> CheetahPixie, ensure you have lsb only turned off.
[04:24] <cfhowlett> LTS
[04:24] <matju> cfhowlett, it's possible that the umount -l is for what was /dev/sda, but I can't tell until I have a way to see that drive appear in /media/*/, and now it doesn't auto-mount anymore.
[04:24] <Bashing-om> CheetahPixie: Kist to verify; what returns ' grep Prompt= /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades ' ?
[04:25] <pero> CheetahPixie: you have update-manager-core installed and edited its config?
[04:25] <CheetahPixie> pero ; yes
[04:26] <CheetahPixie> lsb only? cfhowlett
[04:26] <cfhowlett> CheetahPixie, yes make sure that is NOT enabled.  yakkety is not LTS so "no release found" would be correct
[04:26] <CheetahPixie> Basing-om ; normal, I tried switching back and forth from LTS and normal at least twice.
[04:27] <cfhowlett> when you switched, did you sudo apt update?
[04:27] <CheetahPixie> Fully.
[04:27] <CheetahPixie> No new updates over the Icelandic repos in foreign ones.
[04:27] <CheetahPixie> Still nothing new.
[04:28] <toyman> I'm not pleasured to spam like this, but i ask once again. Does anybody know the name of the daemon that does the laptop display backlight brightness lowering on idle?
[04:28] <toyman> I guess i should try creating a question on the askubuntu.
[04:29] <matju> cfhowlett, i don't know why I should boot a USB. I've never needed that, and afaik, grub hasn't committed its changes yet. Or is it in an unstable state ? BTW, I have another bootable linux fs on my main drive (internal sata) if ever that one is borked.
[04:29] <CheetahPixie> toyman ; Last I checked, you could search for backlight in repos with dpkg, found me a few packages in the past.
[04:29] <cfhowlett> matju, in the interest of avoiding the nuclear option of a reboot back to what appears an unstable system, I suggested a USB + chroot.
[04:29] <toyman> Hm, thanks, CheetahPixie, i'll try.
[04:30] <CheetahPixie> toyman ; Definitely backlight-(insertvendor) or something. I remember, I think, a backlight-dell package on an old Inspiron of my friend's scrolling by on install.
[04:30] <matju> cfhowlett, ok, thanks
[04:31] <pero> looking to disable tap to click on my laptop - disabled it in settings but it still tap clicks (16.10)
[04:32] <pero> in fact i don't think anything in there works - sensitivity doesn't work either
[04:33] <CheetahPixie> pero ; I would look up the config file and make sure you have permissons to modify it.
[04:34] <CheetahPixie> oh; what brand of laptop is this toyman ?
[04:37] <pero> it's a fresh install...
[04:37] <CheetahPixie> hmm
[04:38] <pero> ya nothing works in there
[04:39] <CheetahPixie> do ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/synaptics* and tell me what it replies with, pero
[04:39] <CheetahPixie> (assuming you have a synaptics pad)
[04:41] <nomic> nyone help with nfs
[04:41] <nomic> v bad problem
[04:41] <pero> ya it's synaptics - nothing there
[04:41] <pero> xorg.conf.d doesn't exist
[04:42] <CheetahPixie> huh
[04:42] <CheetahPixie> hmm
[04:42] <pero> there's one in /usr/share
[04:42] <CheetahPixie> ls ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals/mouse returns anything?
[04:42] <ObrienDave> nomic, just ask. plenty here that can help
[04:43] <nomic> i hav ramdisk set up on server & I get mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.168.1.65:/home/user/ramdiskmountpount
[04:43] <pero> CheetahPixie: https://gist.github.com/peronero/275a8a0c04984e2a81cacb839245f49f
[04:43] <nomic> i need ramdisk because its sd card -- need it as ram .. sd card is deteriorating
[04:44] <ObrienDave> nomic, take the : out
[04:44] <ObrienDave> what is your command line?
[04:45] <CheetahPixie> hmm
[04:45] <CheetahPixie> yeah
[04:45] <nomic> sudo mount 192.168.1.65:/home/dan/m /home/dan/m -o rsize=32768,wsize=32768,intr,noatime
[04:45] <CheetahPixie> look at the /usr/share configs
[04:45] <nomic> worked on /home/dan/m as filing system
[04:45] <CheetahPixie> see what permissions they are under
[04:46] <ObrienDave> try //192.168.1.65/home/dan/m /home/dan/m -o rsize=32768,wsize=32768,intr,noatime
[04:46] <ObrienDave> just got done messing with fstab. what a headache LOL
[04:47] <nomic> I repeat -- this worked when it was exporting from disk (sd card)
[04:47] <pero> nothing obvious in there
[04:47] <nomic> not ramdisk
[04:47] <nomic> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.1.65/home/d
[04:47] <maximus_dynamo> o-o
[04:48] <maximus_dynamo> Wow, this actually works
[04:48] <maximus_dynamo> First time using irc
[04:48] <lunarctx> Ah, I remember my first time. lol
[04:48] <ObrienDave> welcome to the REAL internet ;P
[04:48] <CheetahPixie> Welcome to the old-but-good technology of text chat from before WWW was a thing, maximus_dynamo
[04:49] <maximus_dynamo> Thanks
[04:49] <lunarctx> It was on like linux mint 7
[04:49] <maximus_dynamo> Yeah, I'm actually kind of realizing all that I've been missing
[04:49] <pero> yea this is real fancy
[04:49] <CheetahPixie> now just imagine a modem screech and random BBS business to make the feeling complete
[04:49] <maximus_dynamo> And how much the "New and fancy" internet is kinda overrated :(
[04:49] <pero> anyhow i dont really fuck around in there CheetahPixie, i'd much rather the Settings worked
[04:49] <pero> really want to *
[04:49] <theredpanda> hello :D
[04:50] <CheetahPixie> I understand, but I've had permissions issues before. If the permissions don't allow you to write there, you got your answer, pero
[04:50] <pero> i remember i've seen those conf files before years ago and this one definitely looks light
[04:50] <pero> well that file is owned by root
[04:50] <pero> as it probably should be in /usr/share?
[04:51] <CheetahPixie> hmm
[04:51] <pero> settings doesn't ask me for root when it loads up
[04:51] <CheetahPixie> is there nothing around .gconf that points to a synaptics config?
[04:51] <pero> so it presumably cant write to it
[04:51] <CheetahPixie> that's my guess
[04:51] <CheetahPixie> there was some ls wizard trick that told you permissions
[04:52] <pero> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1751 May 24 19:40 50-synaptics.conf
[04:52] <nomic> i got tmpfs              10240       0     10240   0% /home/dan/m
[04:52] <nomic> it is "tmpfs"
[04:52] <nomic> wont mount on nfs
[04:52] <nomic> avail on server
[04:52] <CheetahPixie> ah, ls -lah
[04:52] <CheetahPixie> hmm
[04:52] <CheetahPixie> okay
[04:52] <CheetahPixie> only root can write there it seems
[04:52] <pero> the other file is just vendor specific stuff for several laptops
[04:52] <CheetahPixie> yeah
[04:53] <pero> there's a 0byte gconf in my home dir
[04:53] <CheetahPixie> still, try poking around with enabling write perms on that file
[04:53] <CheetahPixie> huh
[04:53] <pero> onvm it's a dir
[04:53] <CheetahPixie> yep
[04:53] <CheetahPixie> ~/.gconf
[04:53] <pero> an empty dir :)
[04:54] <nomic> ok
[04:54] <nomic> i worked this
[04:54] <ObrienDave> nomic, try mount //192.168.1.65/home/dan/m /home/dan/m nfs -o rsize=32768,wsize=32768,intr,noatime
[04:54] <nomic> but -- I may have
[04:54] <nomic> no its ok ... the IP ADDRESS WAS WRONG
[04:54] <ObrienDave> gotcha
[04:54]  * nomic wheels into wall 
[04:54] <nomic> rite now I tryi it again with my settings
[04:55] <CheetahPixie> well played momic
[04:55] <nomic> what happened .. am raspberyry pi mate rite --a nd the nfs seems to havfe slowed
[04:55] <nomic> thinking fragmented thinkign don't thrash the sd card for 9 months
[04:55] <nomic> is only a ~ 4mb now directory but .. better to use ramdisk rite
[04:55] <nomic> made headless server -- plenty of RAM (relatively)
[04:56] <nomic> so I have my nfs server with ramdisk .. will be fast
[04:56] <CheetahPixie> nomic , next time, ifconfig first
[04:57] <nomic> well sure
[04:57] <mm_> hello all
[04:57] <nomic> /home/dan/m *(fsid=25,rw,sync)
[04:58] <nomic> ^ what does *fsid=25 do -- is that 'all of ip' = any ip?
[04:59] <ObrienDave> file system id, i think. not sure
[04:59] <nomic> cos some guy said use /home/dan/m *(fsid=25,rw,sync)  <- for export of ramdisk .. dir = ramdisk ..
[05:00] <nomic> otherwise I get sudo exportfs -a
[05:00] <nomic> exportfs: /home/dan/m requires fsid= for NFS export
[05:00] <mikubuntu> hmmm -- lots of little buggy things on my new 1404 lubuntu ... for some reason can't install maxthon, but i had it installed on 15.10 -- https://imagebin.ca/v/30KY3TziwIXB
[05:00] <CheetahPixie> got your repos in order, mikubuntu ?
[05:00] <ObrienDave> 14.04 is too old, probably
[05:00] <CheetahPixie> it might be
[05:00] <pero> new 1404
[05:00] <pero> ?
[05:01] <ObrienDave> 14.04 is 2.5 years old ;P
[05:01] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: hmmm, repos?
[05:01] <CheetahPixie> your sources.list
[05:02] <CheetahPixie> what's the output of your cat /etc/apt/sources.list mikubuntu ?
[05:02] <Broken|PC> hi all
[05:02] <Broken|PC> /join ##shellcoder
[05:04] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23405681/
[05:05] <CheetahPixie> hmm
[05:05] <ObrienDave> mikubuntu, according to your repos you have 16.04
[05:05] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: oh, i forgot about software sources -- where do you set those these days
[05:05] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu , that is the list of your software repos you just pasted to me
[05:05] <mikubuntu> ObrienDave: i'm sorry, thats what i meant
[05:05] <CheetahPixie> what does lsb_release -a return?
[05:06] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so where do we update that stuff now?
[05:06] <CheetahPixie> I asked you a question.
[05:07] <CheetahPixie> what's the output of lsb_release -a?
[05:07] <CheetahPixie> (and your sources.list won't need changing if lsb_release -a reports Xenial)
[05:07] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu
[05:09] <ObrienDave> mikubuntu, no sleeping at the keyboard ;P
[05:09] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: what about 'restricted extras
[05:09] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: u just said 'mikubuntu' i was waiting for the rest of it . lol
[05:10] <ObrienDave> read UP
[05:10] <CheetahPixie> You already have the restricted extras enabled. Note all the restricted suffixes on the lines.
[05:10] <mikubuntu> oh never sawr that cause u din't say mikubuntu
 what's the output of your cat /etc/apt/sources.list mikubuntu ?
[05:12] <CheetahPixie> You saw it. I don't need to append mikubuntu for you to see it.
[05:12] <ObrienDave> oops you got that part LOL
[05:12] <mikubuntu> mikubuntu@mikubuntu-HP-Pavilion-g6-Notebook-PC:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID:	Ubuntu Description:	Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Release:	16.04 Codename:	xenial mikubuntu@mikubuntu-HP-Pavilion-g6-Notebook-PC:~$
[05:12] <CheetahPixie> See
[05:13] <CheetahPixie> you have 16.04.1.
[05:13] <Cyb3rw0rM> see
[05:13] <CheetahPixie> Not 14.04.
[05:13] <CheetahPixie> This is Xenial, and all your sources.list entries are Xenial as well. Thes entries then don't need changig.
[05:13] <mikubuntu> ObrienDave: i said that way up -- 1404 was a misspeak
[05:13]  * ObrienDave goes back to sleep
[05:13] <CheetahPixie> I would then reccommend to run ' sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ' without the quotes.
[05:14] <CheetahPixie> Yeah, I've ran into people trying to update an earlier release with newer repos after a botched release upgrade so just making sure
[05:14] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: don't you think i should stay with lts?
[05:14] <ObrienDave> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade would work
[05:15] <CheetahPixie> Those three are used by the update manager to update your computer with normal updates...
[05:15] <CheetahPixie> ...do-release-upgrade is used to upgrade from one version of Ubuntu to the next.
[05:15] <CheetahPixie> dist-upgrade can't do this.
[05:15] <ObrienDave> mikubuntu, only if you don't mind going through this garbage every 6 months
[05:16] <ObrienDave> LTS is good for at least 2 years
[05:16] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so isn't 1604 the LTS?
[05:16] <ObrienDave> yes it is
[05:17] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so then i don't understand why u suggest 'dist-upgrade' ?
[05:18] <CheetahPixie> 16.04 is the LTS.
[05:18] <ObrienDave> dist-upgrade is more through than upgrade
[05:18] <CheetahPixie> dist-upgrade gives you updates.
[05:18] <mikubuntu> i kind of like LTS, 6 mos seems to come along too fast
[05:18] <CheetahPixie> The difference between upgrade and dist-upgrade is that dist-upgrade updates your kernel, whereas upgrade does not.
[05:19] <CheetahPixie> dist-upgrade is not equivalent to do-release-upgrade.
[05:19] <CheetahPixie> dist-upgrade does NOT, contrary to its name, upgrade your Ubuntu from, say, 16.04 to 16.10.
[05:19] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: ok -- so it's not upping me to 16.10
[05:19] <CheetahPixie> That job is solely the responsibility of do-release-upgrade.
[05:19] <Random832> CheetahPixie: Technically, I think editing your sources.list and then doing dist-upgrade is still supported, just not recommended.
[05:20] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: thats where i was confused -- sorry will do the commands now
[05:20] <CheetahPixie> No problem, sir.
[05:20] <Random832> And the difference isn't specifically that it upgrades the kernel, it's that it will install new packages (and kernel upgrades involve a new package due to the way the kernel packaging is structured)
[05:20] <CheetahPixie> LTS is supported for five years.
[05:20] <ObrienDave> 3 years on Xubuntu
[05:21] <CheetahPixie> Well, it's the most obvious difference, so, to a newcomer it is the most visible, Random832 .
[05:21] <jastina> is there a way to check if a device supports bluetooth 4.0/LE?
[05:22] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu : when the upgrades are finished, try installing Maxthon to see if anythig hapens.
[05:22] <gmh> Installed Ubuntu 16.10 on a Packard Bell EasyNote. Love the compability these days. Everything is working out of the box :)
[05:23] <gmh> Screen is crap though. Colors are all washed out and screen got like a "white layer" over it. I guess the LCD sucks (its an old and cheap computer). I was wondering if there is something I could do abuut it tho? (correct it somehow / make it better).
[05:24] <ObrienDave> clean the screen?
[05:24] <gmh> Its not dirty :P
[05:24] <gmh> It just bad.
[05:25] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: ok was going to post my output does it look ok -- http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23405769/
[05:25] <gmh> Possible to increase contrast, boost colors etc?
[05:26] <CheetahPixie> That means there's no updates to install
[05:26] <ObrienDave> mikubuntu, it looks pretty normal
[05:27] <CheetahPixie> (well, except the ones that it did upgrade in dist-upgrade)
[05:27] <CheetahPixie> I however see nothing related to libgcrypt, which was what Maxthon demanded.
[05:27] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: maxthon .deb install still saying error: dependency not satisfiable: libcrypt11 (greater than or = 1.4.5)
[05:27] <CheetahPixie> So: sudo apt-get install libgcrypt11 mikubuntu
[05:28] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: why din't i think of that
[05:29] <ObrienDave> because you're new ;P
[05:29] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: unable to find libgcrypt11
[05:29] <ObrienDave> sudo apt-get install libcrypt1
[05:29] <ObrienDave> sudo apt-get install libcrypt11
[05:29] <ObrienDave> oops
[05:31] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: mikubuntu@mikubuntu-HP-Pavilion-g6-Notebook-PC:~$ sudo apt-get install libcrypt11 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package libcrypt11 mikubuntu@mikubuntu-HP-Pavilion-g6-Notebook-PC:~$
[05:31] <CheetahPixie> hmm
[05:31] <CheetahPixie> that's odd
[05:31] <mikubuntu> i know right
[05:31] <CheetahPixie> do sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:32] <CheetahPixie> try uncommenting the xenial partner line (not the deb-src one)
[05:32] <CheetahPixie> then hit ctrl+x to save after removing the # from said line
[05:32] <CheetahPixie> then do sudo apt-get update and repeat the install attempt
[05:35] <ObrienDave> hmm, it is libgcrypt11. still not available in standard repos
[05:35] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: https://imagebin.ca/v/30Kj9bxx4tdd
[05:35] <CheetahPixie> so
[05:35] <CheetahPixie> yeah
[05:35] <CheetahPixie> that's the line
[05:36] <CheetahPixie> but did you apt-get update after saving?
[05:36] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: sry -- would text have been easier to read?
[05:36] <CheetahPixie> nope, image is fine
[05:36] <CheetahPixie> but still
[05:36] <CheetahPixie> did you save it?
[05:36] <mikubuntu> ummmm, no
[05:36] <mikubuntu> it said error
[05:36] <CheetahPixie> hmm
[05:36] <CheetahPixie> no permissions?
[05:37] <CheetahPixie> if so
[05:37] <ObrienDave> get libgcrypt11 here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgcrypt11
[05:37] <ObrienDave> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/libgcrypt11_1.5.3-2ubuntu4.4_amd64.deb
[05:38] <mikubuntu> ObrienDave: oh no, i could never do that
[05:38] <ObrienDave> suit yourself
[05:38] <CheetahPixie> That package is for Trusty, ObrienDave
[05:38] <mikubuntu> ObrienDave: i don't know how
[05:38] <ObrienDave> ya think?
[05:39] <mikubuntu> as little as possible
[05:39] <mikubuntu> gets me in trouble
[05:39] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu : exit nano, press up, suffix "sudo " to the line, make the modification, try saving, then run sudo apt-get update afterwards
[05:39] <ObrienDave> out of here. SMH and poofs
[05:40] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: forgot how to exit nano been a long time lemme look at it
[05:40] <CheetahPixie> ctrl+x
[05:40] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: was i supposed to edit it at all?
[05:40] <CheetahPixie> Yes, you were.
[05:41] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: don't know what i was sposed to edit
[05:41] <CheetahPixie> Below the partners line, remove the # from the deb (not the deb-src) line, then ctrl+x and save.
[05:42] <CheetahPixie> when that's done, do sudo apt-get update.
[05:43] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: ummm, don't see it
[05:44] <CheetahPixie> Press the down arrow to navigate to the next screen.
[05:44] <CheetahPixie> Or pgdown.
[05:47] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu ?
[05:48] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23405806/
[05:49] <CheetahPixie> oh, you already added it
[05:49] <CheetahPixie> do sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install libgcrypt11
[05:49] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: i din't add anything
[05:49] <CheetahPixie> you weren't supposed to add anything
[05:49] <CheetahPixie> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23405681/ is one of your earlier pastes, notice how the line was commented?
[05:50] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: i dint do anything
[05:50] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: by commented you mean it has one or more ##?
[05:50] <CheetahPixie> check line 46 in that paste
[05:51] <CheetahPixie> and http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23405806/ line 5
[05:51] <CheetahPixie> you enabled the partners repository, or uncommented that line, either one
[05:51] <CheetahPixie> but now; sudo apt-get update
[05:53] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: i promise i din't do either one
[05:53] <CheetahPixie> well
[05:53] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so anyways am i supposed to exit nano?
[05:53] <CheetahPixie> ctrl+x and save still
[05:53] <CheetahPixie> yeah
[05:54] <CheetahPixie> and now do sudo apt-get update
[05:54] <mikubuntu> isn't it save first and ctrl x last?
[05:54] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: guess i'm not sure how to exit either and save
[05:55] <CheetahPixie> ...ctrl+x for the fourth time
[05:55] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: i don't see a save anywhere
[05:56] <CheetahPixie> ctrl+x should pop up a save prompt
[05:56] <Whiffle> I'm having problems with steam not opening.
[05:56] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: Ohhhhhh
[05:56] <CheetahPixie> genius
[05:56] <Whiffle> can anyone help?
[05:57] <CheetahPixie> Whiffle: try opening steam from a local terminal.
[05:57] <CheetahPixie> See what errors it spits out.
[05:57] <Whiffle> unable to load driver: i965_dri.so

[05:59] <CheetahPixie> huh
[05:59] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: i don't see a 'save' anywhere -- https://imagebin.ca/v/30KqIKvZemzH
[05:59] <CheetahPixie> seems you're missing a driver, hold on Whiffle
[05:59] <Whiffle> I'm running on my motherboard's graphics, so the proprietary driver is in use
[05:59] <CheetahPixie> doesn't pop up the prompt when there's nothing to save mikubuntu
[06:00] <CheetahPixie> just do sudo apt-get update now
[06:00] <CheetahPixie> well
[06:00] <CheetahPixie> whiffle it says it is unable to load i965_dri.so
[06:00] <CheetahPixie> which means said driver is missing
[06:00] <Whiffle> all right.
[06:00] <Whiffle> what should I do from here?
[06:01] <CheetahPixie> Whiffle try doing sudo apt-get install i965-va-driver

[06:03] <CheetahPixie> huh
[06:03] <Whiffle> CheetahPixie: from what I've read online, it could be a clash of steam trying to use old libs and it's conflicting, causing the crash
[06:04] <CheetahPixie> Whiffle that's likely. Some have found the libs in other places on their system it seems.
[06:04] <Whiffle> CheetahPixie: New to Linux and I'm not sure how to handle that
[06:05] <CheetahPixie> If I were you, I would try sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Whiffle
[06:05] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: brb
[06:05] <Whiffle> working
[06:06] <Whiffle> CheetahPixie: is a reboot required after these commands?
[06:07] <CheetahPixie> Whiffle no, but they are required for new kernels (Ubuntu can't swap Linux kernels while it's running is the reason)
[06:07] <Whiffle> ok. attempting to lauch steam
[06:08] <Whiffle> CheetahPixie: Same error messages
[06:09] <ledeni> mikubuntu, try 'sudo apt-get install libgcrypt11-dev'
[06:09] <CheetahPixie> there seem to be a bunch of askubuntu threads Whiffle , must say I'm not experienced in Steam giving me shit
[06:10] <Whiffle> CheetahPixie: I came here after I looked through the threads. I performed the steps that I could understand thoroughly
[06:11] <CheetahPixie> hmm
[06:12] <CheetahPixie> https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=193802 might help some Whiffle
[06:13] <CheetahPixie> also, uh, mikubuntu , does Maxthon have a newer version? Because it seems that libgcrypt11 is a way outdated dependency but I might've found a workaround.
[06:13] <Whiffle> cheetahpixie: it seems these threads may be outdated. The files are completely different
[06:14] <CheetahPixie> I know, and people have had luck withSteam after removing these files.
[06:14] <Link> ,
[06:14] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: what about what ledeni said?
[06:15] <CheetahPixie> unlikely, but you can give it a try
[06:15] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: can it hurt?
[06:15] <Mojtaba> Hi, Does anyone know how to copy one directory to multiple destinations in parallel?
[06:15] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: maxthon newest version is 5x i think
[06:16] <CheetahPixie> Try it first.
[06:17] <Mojtaba> Hi, Does anyone know how to copy one directory to multiple destinations in parallel? (It is possible to do it in GUI; I want to do it in command line)
[06:18] <ledeni> Whiffle, try 'sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri'
[06:19] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: ledeni http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23405860/
[06:19] <Whiffle> ledeni: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done libgl1-mesa-dri is already the newest version (12.1~git20161011.fc8b358b-0ubuntu0ricotz~xenial). 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[06:19] <CheetahPixie> Now try launching the Maxthon install mikubuntu.
[06:19] <CheetahPixie> I'd still suggest a newr version of Maxthon.
[06:20] <Whiffle> ledeni: if I might make a suggestion, is there a way to diagnose more accurately what is going on?
[06:20] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: i'd rather a newer version, that's just the one that was delivered from the page: http://www.maxthon.com/blog/maxthon-expands-its-suite-of-high-performance-web-browsers-to-linux/
[06:21] <CheetahPixie> huh
[06:21] <CheetahPixie> okay
[06:21] <ledeni> Whiffle, check --> http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/libgl1-mesa-dri/filelist
[06:22] <CheetahPixie> tried installing the downloaded one yet?
[06:22] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: error: dep not satisfiable: libgcrypt11
[06:22] <Whiffle> ledeni, how do I check this?
[06:24] <ledeni> Whiffle, look path of i915_dri.so
[06:24] <Whiffle> ledeni, what command do I use for that?
[06:24] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu do uname -p and tell me what you get
[06:25] <Whiffle> ledeni, new to linux, so I'm going to need help learning to walk, so to speak
[06:25] <ledeni> Whiffle, lol no babysitting
[06:25] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: x86_64 -- i was about to tell u i used the 64 bit
[06:26] <ledeni> Whiffle, just joking
[06:26] <Whiffle> ledeni, I got it :)
[06:27] <CheetahPixie> http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/cdimage/snapshot/Debian/pool/main/libg/libgcrypt11/libgcrypt11_1.5.3-5_amd64.deb mikubuntu download this
[06:27] <Whiffle> ledeni, i'm looking up how to find the path
[06:28] <CheetahPixie> when downloaded; sudo dpkg -i libgcrypt11_1.5.3-5_amd64.deb
[06:28] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so don't run the gdebi?
[06:28] <ledeni> Whiffle, if you had installed libgl1-mesa-dri  then i915_dri.so will be /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i915_dri.so
[06:29] <CheetahPixie> nah, save the file and do the sudo dpkg -i on the file
[06:29] <CheetahPixie> will allow us to see errors better too
[06:29] <Whiffle> ledeni, what shall I do from here?
[06:30] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: [sudo] password for mikubuntu:  dpkg: error processing archive libgcrypt11_1.5.3-5_amd64.deb (--install):  cannot access archive: No such file or directory Errors were encountered while processing:  libgcrypt11_1.5.3-5_amd64.deb

[06:30] <CheetahPixie> wait
[06:30] <ledeni> try to run ateam in terminal and see path from missing i915_dri.so
[06:31] <CheetahPixie> in what directory are you, mikubuntu ?
[06:31] <CheetahPixie> might ave to cd Downlads
[06:31] <Whiffle> ledeni, I don't know how to do that.
[06:31] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: directory? .. lol
[06:31] <ledeni> Whiffle, steam
[06:31] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: what whiffle said
[06:32] <CheetahPixie> what does your prompt look like, mikubuntu?
[06:32] <Whiffle> ledeni: Running Steam on ubuntu 16.04 64-bit STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1476379980) libGL error: unable to load driver: i965_dri.so libGL error: driver pointer missing libGL error: failed to load driver: i965 libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
[06:32] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: yes its in Downloads
[06:32] <CheetahPixie> yeah
[06:32] <CheetahPixie> in your terminal
[06:32] <CheetahPixie> do cd Downloads
[06:32] <CheetahPixie> and repeat the install attempt
[06:33] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so it's just '  cd Downloads  ' ?
[06:34] <CheetahPixie> yep
[06:35] <Whiffle> ledeni: I'm confused by this problem
[06:36] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23405901/
[06:37] <CheetahPixie> Wonderful.
[06:37] <CheetahPixie> That means it's now installed.
[06:37] <CheetahPixie> Install Maxthon now.
[06:37] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: ok lemme try
[06:37] <Whiffle> ledeni, it seems the drivers are in place, they're simply not being used
[06:39] <rexwin_> when ever I try to login as anyuser I get No directory, logging in with HOME=/
[06:39] <rexwin_> why is it not logging me as normal user?
[06:39] <Ben64> rexwin_: is that the exact error message
[06:40] <Mojtaba> Hi, Does anyone know how to copy one directory to multiple destinations in parallel? (It is possible to do it in GUI; I want to do it in command line)
[06:40] <rexwin_> No directory, logging in with HOME=/
[06:41] <rexwin_> there are no error messages just it is not logging as regular user
[06:41] <ledeni> Whiffle, did you enable -386 architecture
[06:41] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: indeed, maxthon is installed -- thx so much
[06:41] <Whiffle> ledeni, not actively
[06:41] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: now there was this one other thing
[06:42] <rexwin_> it is logging as user but when trying to run mail i get Can't canonicalize "//Maildir"
[06:42] <Whiffle> ledeni, do I need to perform this action?
[06:42] <ledeni> Whiffle, for steam yes
[06:42] <Ben64> rexwin_: what's the output of "cat /etc/passwd | grep <user>"
[06:42] <Whiffle> ledeni, what commands do I give for that?
[06:43] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: why won't the gdebi installer close? how can i kill it? few other windows were doing the same thing over the evening
[06:43] <rexwin_> ramu:x:1003:1004::/home/ramu:
[06:44] <CheetahPixie> sudo pkill gdebi
[06:44] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: and what about restricted extras, apparently i'm not using the native drivers for something or other the software sources says
[06:44] <CheetahPixie> show me the stuff
[06:44] <ledeni> Whiffle, sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
[06:44] <Ben64> rexwin_: how about "ls -ld /home/ramu"
[06:44] <Whiffle> ledeni, I got no output
[06:45] <rexwin_> ls: cannot access '/home/ramu': No such file or directory
[06:45] <ledeni> Whiffle, sudo apt-get update
[06:45] <CheetahPixie> Whiffle it's not supposed to give output, but you have now added i386 asan arch
[06:45] <Ben64> rexwin_: well there you go, the home directory that is set for that user does not exist. create it.
[06:45] <Whiffle> cheetahpixie: understood
[06:45] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so it's no longer 'killall?'
[06:46] <chris2bass> How do i know if I have the KDE desktop environment vs GNOME? Trying to follow a guide for accesing files from a shared folder in Windows OS
[06:46] <Whiffle> ledeni: done
[06:47] <CheetahPixie> and an apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade later, you have all the packages you need Whiffle
[06:47] <ledeni> Whiffle, udo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri:i386
[06:47] <Ben64> chris2bass: depends what version of ubuntu you installed? ubuntu comes with Unity, ubuntu-gnome comes with gnome, kubuntu comes with kde, xubuntu comes with xfce, lubuntu comes with lxde...
[06:47] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu : pkill terminates a process by name, kill terminates by pid, killal does something entirely different

[06:49] <ledeni> Whiffle, udo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri-dev
[06:49] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so i'm not having any problem right now, but isn't it a good idea to have the extras just in case? i know once i had to run some quicktime video and it needed the extras and it was really important because it was courthouse video of my niece

[06:51] <chris2bass> Ben64 I installed Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Comes with Unity (reading wikipedia)
[06:51] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu : definitely not microcode, but then again, if you run into any issues, it's there for you to enable. Microcode is pretty much updates (not always benefical nor important/visible to the end user) to your CPU to fix errata and design bugs.
[06:51] <Whiffle> ledeni, your "s" key not working? lol
[06:51] <ledeni> Whiffle, lol
[06:51] <Blankspace> Mine also
[06:52] <chris2bass> How would you recommend I share folders between Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04
[06:52] <CheetahPixie> chris2bass : in that case, gnome
[06:52] <Whiffle> ledeni: done

[06:53] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: ok so i'll blow it off for now -- wow, well thx so much for all your patience and help. especially the patience.
[06:54] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu you're welcome.
[06:54] <mikubuntu> :)
[06:54] <CheetahPixie> How new are you to Linux?
[06:54] <mikubuntu> i'm a newbie since 7.04
[06:54] <mikubuntu> :(
[06:54] <CheetahPixie> huh
[06:54] <CheetahPixie> still seem to have a lot to learn
[06:54] <CheetahPixie> padawan, even after 9 years, is still young
[06:54] <mikubuntu> can't help it i'm old
[06:55] <CheetahPixie> nah, not old
[06:55] <Kartagis> chris2bass: install samba
[06:56] <mikubuntu> linux works too well -- i go years without any problems, then when something serious happens i find myself back here
[06:56] <Blue1> been there
[06:57] <mikubuntu> meanwhile my msoft friends are running back and forth to the shop shelling out $150 to "clean up the viruses" at least couple times a year.
[06:57] <chris2bass> Kartagis, thank you will do. Quick question why Samba. Just curious.
[06:57] <mikubuntu> but you can't convince them there is a better way
[06:57] <Ben64> chris2bass: that's what windows uses for file sharing
[06:57] <Whiffle> mikubuntu, give me bill gates and a whiffle bat in a padded room for 30 minutes.... he'll straighten his shit out
[06:57] <ledeni> Whiffle, try run 'steam-native' in terminal
[06:57] <Kartagis> because samba is the solution
[06:57] <Kartagis> heh
[06:58] <chris2bass> Is that the same as SMB?
[06:58] <Kartagis> aye
[06:58] <Whiffle> ledeni, command not found
[06:58] <CheetahPixie> yeah well
[06:59] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu , if you dabble into experimentation and miscellaneous fuckery, you'll learn Linux's quirks and kinks rather fast and find yourself a wizard soon enough
[06:59] <mikubuntu> i have been hating msoft since long b4 i ever owned a computer -- when my whole window on the world was hotmail, and if you didn't sign in every so often they deleted all your mail, which was essentially your file system.
[07:00] <Whiffle> mikubuntu, can't stand msoft. after vista hit the market, i made the linux vow
[07:00] <Whiffle> and this is the first computer I've owned since. Built it just a few months ago
[07:01] <Whiffle> worked with linux in the military, and it always worked. never had software problems there. That's why I switched to linux
[07:01] <mikubuntu> oh i def don't do any hardware, and my other box has a failing hdd don't know what i'm gonna do about it
[07:01] <Whiffle> mikubuntu, I'm a radar technician by trade. Hardware is my forte. I'm not so good with software
[07:02] <mikubuntu> cool
[07:02] <ledeni> Whiffle,what gpu you have
[07:02] <CheetahPixie> very neat
[07:02] <chris2bass> I decided to try ubuntu to save money. Going to retire power hungry machines, have a single machine run VMs to do those task.
[07:02] <Whiffle> ledeni, no gpu currently installed
[07:02]  * CheetahPixie raises RX480 *
[07:02] <mikubuntu> chris2bass: what's the deal with VMs
[07:03] <mikubuntu> i never understood the whole thing
[07:03] <ledeni> Whiffle, rm ~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 & rm ~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1
[07:03] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu : LOTS of companies use VMs. This means that, if a machine fucks up, they can just copy a backup drive for the VM back in and be up and running again in 5 minutes as opposed to 5 days.
[07:03] <Whiffle> ledeni: [1] 10962 rm: cannot remove '/home/miner2/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1': No such file or directory
[07:04] <CheetahPixie> a VM basically is a computer within a computer.
[07:04] <chris2bass> I don't want all those programs to run on my host OS.
[07:04] <CheetahPixie> It's a program that runs on top of your OS and then runs an OS in itself.
[07:05] <ledeni> Whiffle, did you remove libstdc++.so.6
[07:05] <chris2bass> If I succeed I will retire 2 machines, I currently have three machines on 24/7/365
[07:06] <Whiffle> ledeni: no. How do I do this?
[07:06] <ledeni> Whiffle, rm ~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6
[07:07] <Whiffle> ledeni, rm: cannot remove '/home/miner2/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6': No such file or directory
[07:08] <CheetahPixie> but yeah
[07:08] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu It would do you tons of good to learn software.
[07:08] <ledeni> Whiffle, ok something else
[07:09] <ledeni> Whiffle, 'LD_PRELOAD='/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6' DISPLAY=:0 steam'
[07:09] <ledeni> Whiffle, in terminal
[07:09] <Whiffle> ledeni, understood
[07:10] <ledeni> Whiffle, try run 'steam' in terminal
[07:10] <CheetahPixie> fun fact of the day: sed is 42 years old
[07:11] <Whiffle> ledeni: Running Steam on ubuntu 16.04 64-bit STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1476379980) libGL error: unable to load driver: i965_dri.so libGL error: driver pointer missing libGL error: failed to load driver: i965 libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
[07:12] <CheetahPixie> btw: screw my earlier problem, modded repos and just gonna gun it
[07:12] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so the software i would really like to learn is email servers, i'm a politician and i need to be able to send lots of emails and my yahoo or google accts don't let you do that.
[07:12] <lotuspsychje> !langue | CheetahPixie
[07:12] <lotuspsychje> !language
[07:13] <joob> Stupid question time. /dev/random and /dev/urandom produce byte streams? As in, their numbers are going to be random between 0-255?
[07:14] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: so is that something i could do on lubuntu?
[07:14] <CheetahPixie> It's something you could do on any Linux.
[07:14] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: i don't even know if i'm defining that properly.
[07:15] <dax> joob: if you're interpreting bytes as numbers between 0 and 255, yes
[07:15] <dax> joob: but yeah, they are bytestreams
[07:15] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: ok, i'm ready to start .. lol
[07:15] <CheetahPixie> You can host/administrate/work with email servers on any Linux distro, really.
[07:15] <CheetahPixie> I however have absolutely no experience at email servers so
[07:15] <CheetahPixie> You'll have to look elsewhere.
[07:15] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: it's only 3:15 am
[07:15] <CheetahPixie> 7:15AM here
[07:16] <CheetahPixie> college soon
[07:16] <ledeni> Whiffle, look like we have bug in steam ---> read http://askubuntu.com/questions/614422/problem-with-installing-steam-on-ubuntu-15-04
[07:16] <CheetahPixie> speaking of politics
[07:16] <mikubuntu> CheetahPixie: are you studying revolutionary ubuntu politics?
[07:16] <CheetahPixie> nope
[07:17] <CheetahPixie> I was just curious how long you've been in it
[07:18] <CheetahPixie> yet politics happen to be mildly relevant to FOSS projects (like Ubuntu)
[07:18] <mikubuntu> 3rd campaign for congress right now. in 92 i worked on a presidential campaign with the current gov of california
[07:18] <CheetahPixie> sounds awesome
[07:18] <chris2bass> Is this normal, I feel like it should show me more options after double clicking WORKGROUP
[07:18] <chris2bass> http://i.imgur.com/NUBkyRF.png
[07:18] <mikubuntu> open source is very much political
[07:18] <CheetahPixie> different goals, different ideas
[07:19] <CheetahPixie> from a "just because it can" for DSLinux up to a "Linux for Human Beings" in Ubuntu.
[07:19] <CheetahPixie> But I don't want to clog a support channel with chitchat so.
[07:19] <FManTropyx> is there a simple program that just records audio from mic? Audacity seems overkill for that
[07:20] <CheetahPixie> FManTropyx overkill is best kill
[07:20] <FManTropyx> are PC mics really bad? the sound barely registers on the computer
[07:20] <CheetahPixie> mikubuntu You should see a new chat tap in the IRC client you are using from e. I sent you a private message.
[07:20] <FManTropyx> needing to add a preamp would be annoying
[07:20] <CheetahPixie> FManTropyx Check your mixer.
[07:21] <l9> morning all :)
[07:22] <FManTropyx> what was the command for that? I've had the same on a Windows PC, so the mic could be bad
[07:23] <CheetahPixie> Is it a laptop mic?
[07:23] <CheetahPixie> If so, it's going to be born bad.
[07:23] <theriel> wow, 1694 nicks :o um, quick question.. i just upgraded and noticed nautilus now puts bookmarks at the bottom, below places/devices. how do i rearrange the sidebar in nautilus?
[07:23] <theriel> googling gets me some old links about editing the source code and recompiling, or then editing the default places or bookmarks
[07:24] <FManTropyx> no, external "table" mic
[07:26] <Whiffle> ledeni, performed all tasks on that link. no change
[07:26] <theriel> hrm, i think i'll come back later :D
[07:26] <chris2bass> what does apt-get mean? is it an abbreviation ?
[07:27] <Whiffle> chris2bass it's the installation process for ubuntu
[07:27] <ducasse> chris2bass: apt = 'advanced packaging tool'. get = 'get' :)
[07:28] <chris2bass> cool, thank you
[07:35] <ledeni> Whiffle, sorry buddy but I'm out of solutions
[07:36] <Whiffle> ledeni: thanks for trying
[07:45] <FManTropyx> how do I remove the beginning of a recording in Audacity? there used to be a menu item for that, but now I cannot find it
[07:45] <cfhowlett> FManTropyx, select the area, use the cut tool
[07:45] <FManTropyx> cut form cursor location to he beginning/end, or sth
[07:46] <FManTropyx> it is hard, because it doesn't fit on the screen and I don't seem to be able to make it smaller (decrease the zoom-in)
[07:46] <cfhowlett> FManTropyx, you could select and zoom to the selection
[07:47] <FManTropyx> that's exactly the hard part
[07:47] <FManTropyx> I shall defeat it somehow, possibly by resorting to referring to the help
[07:48] <cfhowlett> radical step, that!

[08:10] <blueray52> hi
[08:11] <Spookan> Guest45947: Maybe its better you ask in #Windows.
[08:11] <blueray528> hi
[08:11] <Spookan> blueray52: Hello!
[08:12] <Guest45947> no body knows
[08:13] <oizo> @Guest45947 you didn't specify the error, what kind of error did you get?
[08:14] <Guest45947> cant open
[08:14] <auronandace> Guest45947: if you are talking about windows 10 then you should know when it shuts down it is actually hibernating which means you won't be able to access the partition from linux
[08:15] <cfhowlett> Guest45947, so reboot windows and do a proper shutdown
[08:15] <Guest45947> no
[08:15] <Guest45947> windows did not answer
[08:16] <ducasse> Guest45947: what are you trying to do here - install ubuntu or get windows working?
[08:17] <Guest45947> i dont worry about windows at all i just wanna get back my old memory thats all
[08:17] <ducasse> Guest45947: old memory?
[08:18] <Guest45947> HD
[08:18] <ducasse> Guest45947: your files?
[08:18] <Guest45947> yes
[08:20] <ducasse> Guest45947: boot the ubuntu installer in "try ubuntu" mode, then try to access your disk.
[08:22] <auronandace> Guest45947: these situations are why it is best to keep your files on a separate storage partition. In your case though you should be able to mount the ntfs partition as read only (even though the partition isn't clean) and copy the files to a safe place
[08:22] <Guest45947> i tried gave me error and i try to install on HD without erace HD ubuntu didnot install in the same time cant find the files
[08:24] <Guest45947> is any other way to restore HD back in time
[08:25] <cfhowlett> get your windows disk out and repair will get you going
[08:27] <Guest45947> you recon it will work-
[08:28] <cfhowlett> wouldn't have suggested it if I didn't
[08:33] <Skyrider> Can someone tell me if this correct in etc/fstab?
[08:34] <Skyrider> #UUID=3ebe1d9f-c07b-d101-30ac-159fc07bd101 /home/ ext4 nodev,nosuid       0       2
[08:35] <akik> Skyrider: you need to remove the #
[08:36] <Skyrider> Ya, I disabled it on purpose
[08:36] <Skyrider> But the rest of the line is properly added?
[08:36] <akik> Skyrider: yes
[08:36] <dax> i don't see a problem with it, Skyrider
[08:36] <Skyrider> Weird...
[08:37] <Skyrider> Whenever I add this and boot my pi
[08:37] <auronandace> Skyrider: make sure the UUID is correct
[08:37] <Skyrider> The terminal is stuck (on boot) on "assuming drive cache"
[08:37] <Skyrider> the HDD just keeps being active, doing nothing.
[08:38] <Skyrider> I also attempted to replace the UUID + ID with /dev/sda6 , same thing.
[08:38] <dax> i don't think it matters, but remove the / from the end of /home/ perhaps
[08:38] <dax> auronandace: wrong UUID should be throwing an error, not just sitting there
[08:39] <Skyrider> I believe the full message was "Assuming drive cache: write through"
[08:39] <Skyrider> If I remove the fstab code with the # as I copy/pasted above. It works normally.
[08:40] <Skyrider> Now, I do have to admit that the home directories already exists and that the home directory and its subs were previously running on debian.
[08:40] <Skyrider> I am not sure if that might conflict somehow.
[08:41] <Skyrider> The odd thing however is that if I add the fstab code, and use a specific command line to reload the fstab. the home directory works just fine.
[08:41] <Skyrider> Just when I reboot, it goes all wrong.
[08:43] <akik> Skyrider: is your pi running ubuntu?
[08:44] <Skyrider> yup
[08:44] <Skyrider> Welcome to Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.1.19-v7+ armv7l)
[08:44] <Skyrider> I found an arm image yesterday, thought I'd go check it out.
[08:45] <akik> Skyrider: does it work if you change the options nodev,nosuid to defaults ?
[08:46] <Skyrider> #/dev/sda6   /home    ext4          defaults       0       2 <- was my previous attempt
[08:46] <Skyrider> Didn't work either, stuck on same message.
[08:47] <Skyrider> Maybe, just maybe I know what might have gone wrong.
[08:48] <Skyrider> I assumed my main account would just work, but the system is set to login into ubuntu.. which does not exist on my home partition.
[08:49] <Skyrider> But even without a ubuntu home directory, it still should login, right? Just not properly show stuff anymore without the bash files.
[08:49] <akik> Skyrider: you said that the boot hangs ?
[08:49] <Skyrider> Ya, on the message "Assuming drive cache: write through"
[08:50] <Skyrider> Oddly enough as I mentioned above, still HDD activity (constant)
[08:50] <Skyrider> I have rsynced the current home directory to my new home partition
[08:50] <Skyrider> Lets see if that works.
[08:54] <Skyrider> Drats
[08:55] <Skyrider> Stuck on no caching  mode page found, assuming drive cache.
[08:55] <Skyrider> This message does also appear when not using the home partition in fstab, but just passes by quickly.
[08:57] <Skyrider> actually, I got further..
[09:23] <Skyrider> What is plymouth boot screen
[09:26] <SebthreeBQM10HD> Skyrider, wahts Plymouth you mean?
[09:26] <SebthreeBQM10HD> Skyrider,   Plymouth is responsible for the boot up theme, so  the image with the Ubuntu logo when booting up
[09:26] <SebthreeBQM10HD> or your custom theme if have changed that
[09:26] <cfhowlett> !plymouth | Skyrider
[09:27] <Skyrider> Mh... Oddly enough, after a few min it does go further..
[09:27] <Skyrider> but then its stuck on that booting plymounth command line.
[09:27] <Skyrider> Do I need it if I only use terminal?
[09:28] <SebthreeBQM10HD> Skyrider,  if only terminal for what?
[09:28] <Skyrider> no GUI, just plain terminal.
[09:28] <Skyrider> eg, always remote connection through ssh.
[09:28] <SebthreeBQM10HD> Skyrider,  maybe not, but I think it's meant to be there anyway
[09:29] <Skyrider> Then I wonder why it is stuck on the message.. mmhhh...
[09:30] <akik> Skyrider: if you add the /home fstab line after a successful boot, can you then "mount /home" and "umount /home" without problems?
[09:30] <Skyrider> I never had a successful boot aftering adding the home in fstab.
[09:30] <Skyrider> **after
[09:31] <akik> Skyrider: i meant, comment the line, boot the machine. then after the boot remove the #
[09:31] <Skyrider> I do believe that adding a boot delay in cmdline.txt also gives problems, meh.
[09:31] <akik> Skyrider: what is cmdline.txt ?
[09:31] <Skyrider> This is ubuntu on the pi2 :p
[09:32] <Skyrider> cmdline is for the pi boot up options.
[09:32] <Skyrider> oke.. removed the /home in fstab
[09:32] <Skyrider> it boots up properly now.
[09:33] <akik> could this /home mount problem somehow be connected to systemd?
[09:34] <ducasse> i doubt he would be expected to create a mount unit, but it could be worth a try...
[09:35] <EriC^^> Skyrider: what does blkid and /etc/fstab look like?
[09:36] <Skyrider> https://paste.ubuntu.com/23406257/
[09:36] <EriC^^> and sudo blkid?
[09:36] <Skyrider> https://paste.ubuntu.com/23406261/
[09:37] <Skyrider> Should really just use 1 pastebin,  but.. here's the cmdline.txt: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23406263/
[09:38] <Skyrider> rootdelay I added for a reason. Just to make it wait for HDD activity.
[09:39] <Skyrider> But its showing long delay issues if I use this it appears.
[09:39] <EriC^^> Skyrider: are you booted into it right now?
[09:39] <Skyrider> Right now, ya.
[09:39] <Skyrider> Because I disabled the home fstabs lines.
[09:39] <EriC^^> Skyrider: try to uncomment the home fstab line then sudo mount -a
[09:40] <Skyrider> That works (untagged the /dev/sda6), which I also tried yesterday.
[09:40] <Skyrider> But once I reboot, it'll just be stuck on the drive cache command line again.

[09:44] <Langley> Does anyone know why this fix isn't released for 14.04 yet :( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1568604
[09:45] <ducasse> Langley: no, we don't.
[09:45] <Langley> Is there any way to push for it, because it's really annoying
[09:46] <ducasse> Langley: comment on the bug, and get others to do the same.
[09:48] <Skyrider> I've disabled the quiet / splash from the cmdline
[09:48] <Skyrider> Now I see the full terminal info... its doing a HDD check.
[09:48] <akik> Skyrider: did you check "journalctl -xe" for errors for that mount?
[09:48] <Skyrider> Maybe that's why it never went further... duh
[09:48] <caseyjr> so's your face
[09:48] <Skyrider> No, I have not.
[09:49] <Skyrider> 3.3%, this might take a while.
[09:49] <Skyrider> Seeing its 800gb orso in size.
[09:49] <Skyrider> Now I know why it was stuck... it was doing a check, while it didn't show it was.
[09:49] <Skyrider> Glad I disabled the quiet/splash screen.
[09:50] <caseyjr> can u hear?
[09:50] <Skyrider> ?
[09:50] <cfhowlett> caseyjr, go away and play elsewhere please.
[09:51] <akik> Skyrider: the fsck was hidden because of "quiet splash" ?
[09:51] <Skyrider> Indeed
[09:51] <caseyjr> i stumbled here. iget your doing something.
[09:52] <Skyrider> Is there an fstab command line so my home won't be fscked?
[09:54] <asperon> anybody else having problems with ondrej php7.0-curl on trusty? i get this "undefined symbol: zend_unset_property in Unknown on line 0"
[09:54] <caseyjr> sorry ..keep up the work
[09:59] <Pharaoh> Hi all! Just installed 16.10 with nomodeset option - display seems to have gone awry, no support for intel/amd drivers... any ideas?
[10:20] <pedrocr> my 16.04.1 install has stopped asking for the encrypted swap password on boot
[10:20] <pedrocr> it just hangs there until time out, making the boot slower and not mounting the swap
[10:22] <Pharaoh> Hi all! Just installed 16.10 with nomodeset option - display seems to have gone awry, no support for intel/amd drivers... any ideas?
[10:25] <theDoomGuy> in which script does the TERM env variable get set ?
[10:27] <MacroMan> How can I check disk usage? ie. what processes are reading/writing
[10:28] <MacroMan> I think I'm getting quite bad paging to disk
[10:29] <trijntje> pedrocr: it shouldn't ask for a swap password at all, it should just pick a random one
[10:35] <malik_> hi
[10:35] <squaregoldfish> MacroMan Do you mean paging as in using swap space? If so, you’ll only see that the kernel is using the disk. You’ll have to see the memory usage of your processes to see which ones are using the most.
[10:38] <Pharaoh> Hi all! Just installed 16.10 - any idea on when the graphics driver updates will be available
[10:40] <tachikomas> Pharaoh: if you are on nvidia, you can Download the latest from the nvidia site (proprieeary)
 : I have AMD Radeon HD series.
 : Both intel and amd drivers have unstaisfied dependencies
[10:41] <Pharaoh> unsatisfied
[10:45] <Skyrider> Thanks.. after the check, it works properly now.
[10:45] <pedrocr> trijntje: yeah, it's working now that I've changed /etc/crypttab to use /dev/sda6 instead of UUID
[10:47] <trijntje> pedrocr: don't do that, there is no guarantee that your harddisk will always be on /dev/sda6. Worst case, ubuntu could even overwrite another disk that has a sixth partition
[10:47] <pedrocr> trijntje: then I don't know what the issue is
[10:47] <pedrocr> trijntje: blkid doesn't identify a UUID for this partition
[10:47] <Pharaoh> anyone has an idea on intel / amd driver updates for 16.10 ...Also, i was forced to put nomodeset in grub.
[10:48] <trijntje> pedrocr: how do you know your swap is not in use?
[10:48] <pedrocr> only a PARTUUID
[10:48] <andreborda> hello, can anyone help me with a halfway done drive recovery job?
[10:48] <pedrocr> trijntje: by running free
[10:48] <pedrocr> trijntje: and by looking up the syslog where systemd was timing out on that partition
[10:48] <Wulf> andreborda: details?
[10:49] <andreborda> Wulf: I accidentaly formated my safe drive with the windows boot creation tool. ASked for help yesterday here and got to the point where I have a testdisk log, but not sure what to do with it
[10:49] <trijntje> pedrocr: I'm not sure whats wrong then, but I do know you don't need to enter a password for your encrypted swap
[10:50] <kosmos890> I cant import .sql.zip file using phpmyadmin - Ubuntu Server 16.04
[10:50] <pedrocr> trijntje: yeah, that was a red herring
[10:50] <andreborda> Wulf: The drive is 2tb, new partition something like 32gb
[10:50] <pedrocr> trijntje: the problem is that the UUID is not detected anymore
[10:51] <andreborda> Wulf: And I don't normally use linux, so I'm in over my head a bit here
[10:55] <pedrocr> strange, my sda6 partition has lost it's UUID completely
[10:55] <pedrocr> is that stored in the partition table?
[10:57] <Wulf> andreborda: the 32 G, were they overwritten?
[10:58] <andreborda> Wulf: I think they got overwritten by the tool, yeah. But I havn't toutched it after that, apart from the testdisk and ddrescue tools
[10:59] <scottc> Hi all, if I wanted to start sending crash reports for Compiz does anyone have any idea on whether it could potentially contain any sensitive information?
[11:00] <Wulf> andreborda: double check it
[11:01] <Wulf> andreborda: e.g. hd /dev/sdb1 or whatever your new partition is
[11:01] <andreborda> Wulf: I have the testdisk log
[11:03] <MacroMan> squaregoldfish, Yes. Thanks.
[11:05] <andreborda> Wulf: does this help? http://pastebin.com/Py1c7E9s the testdisk log
[11:05] <mosez> oh god... glusterfs is such a s***... it's not working like documented in all the guides
[11:07] <ikonia> mosez: please don't swear, there is no need to
[11:08] <unkblank> Hiii
[11:11] <mosez> ikonia: https://cl.ly/2f013X0j0I1V so this is better? ;)
[11:11] <ikonia> mosez: with no context, no
[11:12] <mosez> 51.15.45.91 is the ip of the host where i executed it -.-
[11:13] <mosez> lets try it with the private ips
[11:13] <C0r3> I noticed, (only tried with gedit) when I open gedit > File > Open and in the file browser I do 'Ctrl+h' to display hidden files then I close gedit. Now when I open Files (nautilus), the hidden files are displayed, so now I do 'Ctrl+h' again to hide hidden files and close nautilus. When I open the nautilus again, I see that my hidden files are visible (it happens everytime until you go to gedit > file
[11:14] <C0r3> browser and 'Ctrl+h' to hide the files). Is it a bug??
[11:16] <mosez> awesome, looks like it is really just realted to the ip address... used the private ip and it worked... damn
[11:18] <denemeee> hi!
[11:18] <denemeee> :)
[11:22] <PCatinean> I have uninstalled spotify but if I do locate spotify I get a lot of remaining files
[11:22] <PCatinean> how do I purge these?
[11:23] <boxrick1_> Is there a difference between the way Ubuntu 14 and Ubuntu 16 deal with tftp?
[11:23] <boxrick1_> Since I have the same folder and the same permissions being served up with atftpd
[11:23] <ikonia> PCatinean: depends how it was installed
[11:24] <PCatinean> ikonia, downloaded from the spotify webiste, double click and install
[11:24] <ikonia> boxrick1_: later client version, but other than that, should be the same
[11:24] <boxrick1_> Yet one requires **7 permissions to read the file from tftp the other is happ with 400
[11:24] <PCatinean> I think it's the rpm
[11:24] <ikonia> PCatinean: ok - so then how did you remove it
[11:24] <boxrick1_> Hmm how odd
[11:24] <ikonia> PCatinean: it' san rpm - thats not meant for ubuntu, thats meant for redhat based machines
[11:24] <PCatinean> ikonia, sudo apt-get purge spotify-client
[11:24] <PCatinean> ah, .deb then sorry
[11:25] <boxrick1_> Is there any obvious reasons I would have to change permissions to be world readable for tftpd on ubuntu 16 yet I don't on 14?
[11:25] <ikonia> PCatinean: so their package doesn't have a good clean up then
[11:25] <ikonia> just remove the files
[11:25] <PCatinean> It seems so
[11:25] <PCatinean> Do manual rm then?
[11:25] <PCatinean> damn, that's ugly :(
[11:25] <ikonia> PCatinean: nothing else is going to remove it
[11:25] <ikonia> PCatinean: the spotify website says they want feedback, so feed back
[11:25] <PCatinean> a lot in cache I see
[11:25] <PCatinean> good idea ikonia
[11:25] <ikonia> cache is local to your user
[11:25] <ikonia> the package uninstall will never clean that up
[11:27] <hammed> anyone here has root
[11:28] <PCatinean> oh so I have to clear cache manually
[11:28] <PCatinean> I will just remove things realted to ti
[11:28] <PCatinean> Maybe I can have a repository to install spotify
[11:28] <ikonia> PCatinean: just rmeove .spotify in your home dir
[11:28] <PCatinean> after so it does automatig updates
[11:28] <PCatinean> yeah, 10x
[11:28] <ikonia> PCatinean: https://www.spotify.com/uk/download/linux/
[11:28] <ikonia> that configures a repo for you
[11:28] <hammed> anyone here has root
[11:29] <ikonia> hammed: yes, why
[11:29] <hammed> anyone here has root
[11:30] <ikonia> yes, you asked
[11:30] <ikonia> what do you want hammed
[11:30] <schwing> what do you mean by root?
[11:30] <schwing> to your computer?
[11:30] <rexwin_> Failed to start dovecot.service: Unit dovecot.service is masked.
[11:30] <ikonia> just ask the actual question
[11:30] <rexwin_> how to unmask dovecot?
[11:30] <ikonia> rexwin_: what does the startup log for it show
[11:31] <dax> rexwin_: assuming that it was manually masked by you/someone else and you're undoing that: sudo systemctl unmask dovecot.service
[11:32] <ikonia> it could be a service setting the mask
[11:32] <ikonia> a depend hence check the start up log
[11:32] <PCatinean> ikonia, just noticed there was one configured, strange
[11:32] <ikonia> PCatinean: why is that strange ?
[11:32] <PCatinean> hope it does not have any more bugs after installing it again
[11:33] <beaver> @info chromium-browser
[11:33] <beaver> !info chromium-browser
[11:33] <hammed> anyone here has root
[11:33] <PCatinean> ikonia, omg maybe you can help me out with this. It's been driving me crazy. Chromium browser cannot login to the profile and I have re-login to everything every time
[11:33] <PCatinean> I asked before but nobody answered
[11:34] <ikonia> PCatinean: login to what profile ?
[11:34] <PCatinean> the main google profile, and I have to login back to everything (gmail, bitbucket, facebook, github) everything
[11:34] <ikonia> PCatinean: do you have any warnings/errors when it tries to login to google
[11:34] <PCatinean> I've googled a lot and no solution worked. Tried re-install, removing and adding my profile again
[11:34] <ikonia> (as in the progile)
[11:34] <PCatinean> yeah
[11:34] <PCatinean> 1 sec
[11:34] <ikonia> PCatinean: use a pastebin if it's long
[11:35] <andreborda> I have used ddrescue on a drive that I need to recover, but the destination drive is too small. If I get a bigger drive, will the recovery be affected because it was already done once?
[11:36] <andreborda> as in, should I just try and get what was found on the first try, or can I just erase that and start anew with another run and no further loss of data
[11:38] <PCatinean> ikonia, one sec
[11:39] <rexwin_> how to determine is a package is already installed on ubuntu
[11:39] <PCatinean> ikonia, i have to restart, only then it starts acting up
[11:39] <PCatinean> brb
[11:39] <PCatinean> dpkg -l | grep package
[11:39] <PCatinean> I think rexwin_
[11:39] <PCatinean> brb
[11:39] <Duvdevan> linux is tha best
[11:40] <kz> linux or windows?
[11:41] <PCatinean> ikonia, I'm not sure why I'm not getting the explicit message, I did get it before. But my profile icon on the top right has a yellow exalamtion mark in a triangle and I get: A change in your account requires that you sign in again.
[11:41] <PCatinean> and it does this every time for every restart
[11:41] <PCatinean> Also says: Account sign-in details are out of date
[11:42] <PCatinean> ahh, could it be because I changed the password to my id_rsa.pub?
[11:47] <pandaadb> Hi. Would someone know if the Xorg version 1.18.4 includes the vsync fix for optimus enabled nvidia chips?
[11:48] <andreborda> If I run a new ddrescue, does it negatively affect the data recovery after the first attempt?
[11:48] <pandaadb> i would like to try it but i don't know how to build from a certain commit. I figured if it is in there i could upgrade the distro and see if it fixes things
[11:48] <pedrocr> it seems encrypted swap with UUID is just a broken config
[11:48] <pedrocr> since the UUID is stored in the partition data it only works on the first boot
[11:49] <pedrocr> once luks clears the partition the uuid is erased
[11:49] <hanmac> hi i have problems to run "do-release-upgrade" to "yakkety" it says it can't resolve some problems.    is there a way to do it manulally? (i think something about changing the sources list or something like that)
[11:50] <akik> pedrocr: i have my swap partition uuid in /etc/crypttab and it works
[11:50] <popey> hanmac: maybe pastebin the output so we can see what's broken?
[11:50] <PCatinean> ikonia, it seems that when I enter the password in my keychain, it tries to login to my google account and fails
[11:52] <PCatinean> brb
[11:53] <popey> hanmac: while it is possible to manually upgrade by fiddling sources.list, we generally don't recommend it, and it may not help here, as it seems you have a problem which is more fundamental.
[11:54] <hanmac> popey i dont think it might help you that much, the output is localized ... and i can't get it to output it in english :/
[11:55] <Ben64> hanmac: put the errors on paste.ubuntu.com anyway? most of it is going to be package names and stuff
[11:55] <pedrocr> akik: could you paste me the crypttab line?
[11:55] <pedrocr> akik: maybe I'm missing a trick
[11:55] <akik> pedrocr: http://pastebin.com/raw/XbtvtKGK
[11:56] <pedrocr> akik: what's /root/swapkey ?
[11:56] <akik> pedrocr: it's used to open the device
[11:56] <hanmac> popey & Ben64: there is no package names http://paste.ubuntu.com/23406710/ just saying that it can't do it
[11:56] <pedrocr> akik: but did you define it?
[11:56] <akik> pedrocr: yes
[11:57] <pedrocr> akik: so you're making the swap persist between boots?
[11:57] <popey> hanmac: is this a server or desktop?
[11:57] <hanmac> popey: local desktop
[11:57] <akik> pedrocr: i used this guide: http://thesimplecomputer.info/full-disk-encryption-with-ubuntu
[11:57] <popey> hanmac: what's the desktop you use? kde / unity / gnome ?
[11:58] <akik> pedrocr: probably yes i'm using the same swap without using mkswap in between
[11:58] <hanmac> popey: cinnamon as desktop but have kde and gnome installed too
[11:58] <popey> ahhhhh
[11:58] <popey> hanmac: was it originally an ubuntu unity install that you removed packages from? What was the original install?
[12:00] <pedrocr> akik: right, not ideal either
[12:01] <hanmac> popey: hm yeah it was a original from unity i think probably unity (but i don't like it) i dont know if i removed packages from ...
[12:01] <akik> pedrocr: both root and swap are always encrypted
[12:01] <Pharaoh> Hi all! any idea on "The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates/ubuntu yakkety Release' does not have a Release file."
[12:01] <hanmac> i manageed to open synaptic while the other process was calcing the changes. now i can see what it want
[12:01] <popey> hanmac: that makes sense. if you remove unity (and some other packages) it can remove ubuntu-desktop which will remove other things, and may break upgrades
[12:02] <MrHos> How can I set root password? I need to login into root username from login page
[12:02] <popey> hanmac: there's a quick and easy way to fix it.
[12:02] <popey> hanmac: sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop^
[12:02] <popey> hanmac: note the caret (^) on the end, which is important
[12:02] <popey> hanmac: if it installs more stuff, then this will probably fix the upgrade
[12:03] <pedrocr> akik: I know, but there's no point persisting swap info between boots
[12:03] <pedrocr> akik: it's a potential information disclosure
[12:03] <hanmac> popey: unity and ubuntu desktop are installed ... i did a look what it want to remove and it seems there are some K* packages it doesn't like anymore ...
[12:03] <hanmac> i will look what i can do with that
[12:04] <popey> hanmac: yeah, run that command though, it can un-break quite a few things :)
[12:04] <popey> hanmac: I'd be interested to know what/if it installs more stuff
[12:04] <popey> because on a default system, it shouldn't, and if it does, that indicates breakage
[12:06] <akik> pedrocr: yea i think mkswap creates a new uuid for the partition
[12:06] <Shogoot> hi all. seems ive killed cronjob prossess, how do i stat it up again?
[12:06] <MrHos> someone please help me find my answer
[12:07] <popey> !rootsudo | MrHos
[12:07] <Pharaoh> Hi all! any idea on "The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates/ubuntu yakkety Release' does not have a Release file."
[12:07] <bencc> how do I know what font to install for chinese support in libreoffice and chromium?
[12:07] <hanmac> popey: ok it does intstall a few packages. some not 100% needed ones from unity
[12:07] <bencc> fonts-wqy-microhei or fonts-arphic-ukai?
[12:07] <popey> hanmac: do you have any kde ppas on your system?
[12:08] <popey> Pharaoh: that ppa has no yakkety packages, that's why
[12:08] <popey> Pharaoh: hasn't been updated since trusty - http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates/ubuntu/dists/
[12:08] <hanmac> popey: hm no, but i still have the open synaptic with the "new" package data, there i can select the packages it does want to remove (the ones that probably prevent the system from updating) and remove them myself
[12:09] <Pharaoh> @popey: i just did a freh 16.10 install - it screwed up display  completely
[12:09] <popey> Pharaoh: well done :)
[12:09] <popey> Pharaoh: what video card do you have?
[12:09] <Pharaoh> popey: AMD RADEON HD 6950
[12:10] <Pharaoh> popey: forget that, I can fall back on Intel, even that does not work, unsatisfied dependencies
[12:11] <greybert> There any examples on how to configure teamd/libteamd for bonding?
[12:13] <rexwin_> how to find what files are installed by dovecot-common pacakge?
[12:15] <popey> rexwin_: once installed you can use "dpkg -L <packagename>" or you can go to packages.ubuntu.com/dovecot-common
[12:15] <lordcirth> rexwin_, or apt-file list <pkg>
[12:15] <lordcirth> If you have it installed
[12:19] <Pharaoh> popey: looks like I was able to set up AMD correctly for now
[12:27] <Sircle> Is there a way to just move /home to another HD? I had SSD and space ran out. I want to attach a new HD and shift my files to it. Is there an easy way?
[12:27] <Wulf> Sircle: mv
[12:27] <Sircle> Wulf: how to tell linux that the /home is moved now?
[12:28] <Sircle> Wulf:  else than just mv command?
[12:29] <Wulf> Sircle: ok, the whole process. Login as a user that doesn't have its home directory in /home. E.g. root. Not sudo, login directly. move /home to /blah. Create a new /home. Edit /etc/fstab to mount the new partition in /home. mount /home. move /blah/* to /home/
[12:29] <Wulf> Sircle: or perhaps you're using lvm?
[12:30] <Wulf> Sircle: then pvcreate, vgsomething, lvextend, resize2fs
[12:32] <hanmac> popey: i got it working ... i did remove some packages (which would be removed in the future too), enough to get do-release-upgrade working again ^.^
[12:33] <popey> hanmac: awesome!
[12:33] <hanmac> i did make a list of what that it would update (which include something i needed to remove) + a list of what do-release-upgrade does remove so i can add it later
[12:33] <popey> great news
[12:34] <mooj> *great news, everybody!  Planet Express isnt going out of business!
[12:34] <hanmac> it says it does take 6 days with a 56K-Modem xD good that i am slightly faster than that :p
[12:41] <rexwin__> I am not able to remove dovecot fully from my system how to remove it by better ways
[12:58] <rexwin__> what provides /etc/dovecot/conf.d/20-pop3.conf
[13:00] <ioria> rexwin__, dovecot-pop3d  and dovecot-core
[13:00] <Wulf> rexwin__: dpkg -S
[13:05] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:06] <yoksil> hi
[13:09] <ioria> 🎃
[13:10] <Bloom> Hello guys
[13:10] <Bloom> Can someone help me?
[13:11] <kosmos890> I cant import .sql.zip file using phpmyadmin - Ubuntu Server 16.04
[13:11] <kosmos890> You attempted to load file with unsupported compression (application/zip). Either support for it is not implemented or disabled by your configuration.
[13:11] <BluesKaj> Bloom, just ask your question
[13:12] <Bloom> Well im looking for a program which can stream videos from my ubuntu server directly to my smart tv
[13:12] <Bloom> I've tried Kodi but dont know if it is possible
[13:12] <hateball> It depends what your TV supports
[13:13] <BluesKaj> depends how smart your tv is
[13:13] <hateball> Most likely you will want a mediaserver that can do transcoding, and iirc Kodi does not do that by default
[13:13] <Kinder-Pingvi> Hi guys. Who had a problem with open drivers for Nvidia cards? I mean fully stuck my PC in random time..
[13:13] <ioria> !info mediatomb
[13:13] <jack_> XBMC
[13:14] <BluesKaj> jack_, XBMC=kodi
[13:14] <th0r> Bloom, stick a raspberry pi on the back of the tv. That's how I do it
[13:14] <Bloom> Annnnd what is that
[13:15] <jack_> BlueJay So I see
[13:15] <hateball> Mediatomb works well, takes some setting up tho
[13:15] <BluesKaj> I don't muck about with streams , connect my pc directly to the tv, hence HTPC
[13:15] <Bloom> well i just want to stream it to my tv, cant i do it via chromecast in any way
[13:16] <jack_> Bluejay same here, HDMI out from old laptop with MInt
[13:16] <th0r> Bloom, the pi? a $35 single board computer ... I think there is even an ubuntu for it now
[13:16] <hateball> Bloom: There is also the option of using Plex, altho it is not open source it is free as in beer
[13:16] <Bloom> I've tried Plex but that means i have to compromise most of the files
[13:16] <Bloom> not compromise lol, dunno whats its called
[13:16] <Bloom> compress the files
[13:18] <BluesKaj> bluejay?
[13:19] <zzarr> hello!
[13:20] <zzarr> I'm having problems that ssh timeout when connecting to a xen guest running 16.04.1
[13:22] <CacheMoney> is there a way to snap windows to the left or right side when using 3 monitors?
[13:23] <BluesKaj> my tv isn't very smart ..but can a hdd-outboard connect via usb to a smart tv and call up files ?
[13:26] <bsamorim> guys, is there some sort of 'man' for the time complexity of standard UNIX commands, such as ls, find, etc?
[13:27] <PinkPing> how can i clone github with terminal?
[13:27] <PinkPing> https://github.com/yongye/cpp
[13:28] <neldogz> I am calling an ignore file as follows: rsync -avi --exclude-from=/opt/rsync/ignore_list    and in the ingore file I am excluding certain directories from backup of my /home such as .adobe, .cache, .macromedia, .steam ... but for some reason .phoronix-test-suite is not being excluded. Has anyone run into a similar issue with exclusions?
[13:29] <PinkPing> how can i clone github with terminal? https://github.com/yongye/cpp
[13:29] <ioria> PinkPing,  git clone url
[13:30] <PinkPing> git clone https://github.com/yongye/cpp
[13:30] <ioria> yep
[13:30] <cerion> git clone https://github.com/yongye/cpp.git
[13:31] <PinkPing> Ceber: but link have no .git.
[13:31] <PinkPing> cerion:
[13:31] <ioria> zzarr, you probably need a StayAlive instruction in config files
[13:32] <ioria> zzarr, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25084288/keep-ssh-session-alive
[13:32] <zzarr> ioria, That's what I thought too, but I have tried that without success
[13:33] <ioria> zzarr,  server and client ? https://bjornjohansen.no/ssh-timeout
[13:33] <PinkPing> but link have no “.git”.   cerion
[13:33] <ioria> PinkPing,  git clone url
[13:34] <PinkPing> https://github.com/yongye/cpp.git  vs https://github.com/yongye/cpp   which is correct ioria ?
[13:34] <ioria> PinkPing,  git clone https://github.com/yongye/cpp
[13:34] <zzarr> only on the server
[13:34] <PinkPing> thanks ioria :)
[13:35] <ioria> PinkPing,  no prob
[13:35] <PinkPing> then why that guy add .git to url? ioria ?
[13:35] <ioria> PinkPing,  idk,
[13:35] <PinkPing> thanks
[13:35] <PinkPing> :)
[13:35] <ioria> zzarr,  search the logs and be sure the prob is the timeout
[13:35] <zzarr> thanks ioria I'll try that
[13:36] <ioria> zzarr,  np
[13:37] <zzarr> I have had a look at syslog, dmesg and faillog, but there are no entries related to ssh
[13:38] <ioria> zzarr,  /var/log/auth.log
[13:38] <chibill_> So after my install ubuntu on first boot sits at a black screen spamming errors...
[13:38] <chibill_> Any idea?
[13:38] <zzarr> thanks, I will have a look at that
[13:39] <chibill_> I have a nvidia gtx960M which I think might be what is causing it.
[13:39] <Bloom9900> Cant i just install kodi on my smart tv or on a chromecast?
[13:40] <ioria> !nomodeset | chibill_
[13:40] <ANNA-cc> Command "nomodeset" / "nomodeset |" not found.
[13:41] <chibill_> I have heard that.... have not had a chance to do it yet. (On my windows install that is on it)
[13:44] <zzarr> ioria, nothing in the log
[13:45] <zzarr> do you think it could be a xen related problem?
[13:45] <ioria> zzarr,  nothing about the issue or nothing about ssh ?
[13:46] <zzarr> ioria, I ran a tail -f on the log while connecting to the machine, I saw that I was connected, but nothing when disconnected
[13:48] <ioria> zzarr,  you should see something like 'session closed for user x'
[13:48] <neldogz> I am calling an ignore file as follows: rsync -avi --exclude-from=/opt/rsync/ignore_list    and in the ingore file I am excluding certain directories from backup of my /home such as .adobe, .cache, .macromedia, .steam ... but for some reason .phoronix-test-suite is not being excluded. Has anyone run into a similar issue with exclusions?
[13:48] <ioria> zzarr,  grep ssh /var/log/auth.log
[13:49] <zzarr> ioria, I know, but that don't happen
[13:50] <zzarr> or is "systemd-logind[###]: Removed session ###." related?
[13:53] <ioria> zzarr,  no idea
[13:54] <madd_step> Hello everyone, what is the best way to flush the DNS Cache in ubuntu? I've tried /etc/init.d/dns-clean and systemctl restart systemd-resolved and nothing seems to work (btw I'm testing by trying to ping without a netwok connection)
[13:55] <zzarr> ioria, thanks for your time
[13:57] <ioria> zzarr,  no prob
[14:11] <fabio70mi> Hi On Ubuntu 16.10 x64, I get "Cannot use CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG: -fstack-protector-strong not supported by compiler" with gcc (Ubuntu 6.2.0-5ubuntu12) 6.2.0 20161005 compiling Linux/x86 4.9.0-rc3
[14:56] <isometric05> q: is there a known issue on Ubuntu 14.04.5 and installing via EFI?
[14:56] <isometric05> (server) I install via EFI into ESX or VirtualBox and the machine *hard* locks on first boot
[15:02] <Pharaoh> Grr... I tried to install AMDGPU pro drivers on 16.10 and it bombed - it would not let me log in..
[15:02] <Pharaoh> anyone else has graphics issues with 16.10 (i have an AMD Radeon HD GPU)
[15:17] <chibill_> After install my Ubuntu was sitting at a black screen I used nomodeset to fix that but now it just sits there with a purple screen.
[15:17] <chibill_> Any idea?
[15:19] <chibill_> (So many people leaving an joining)
[15:20] <rob-vir-u17> Hello I can install packages offline no prob with sudo apt-get install and then paste the urls in a computer with internet and download the pkgs. The problem is when some packages get moved or replaced. I need to do a apt-get update offline. How to achieve this? thanks
[15:20] <ikonia> an apt-get update offline ?
[15:21] <ikonia> apt-get needs access to a mirror of some sort, local, internet, whatever
[15:21] <rob-vir-u17> yeah, so that when I do apt-get install I will get the updated package urls
[15:21] <ikonia> updated package urls ?
[15:21] <ikonia> the urls never change
[15:21] <rob-vir-u17> ikonia: I download the packages from another computer, add them to local and then apt-get install works fine
[15:21] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: explain how you install them
[15:22] <Frankenstein> why not just hook up this computer to the internet
[15:22] <rob-vir-u17> because not possible
[15:22] <Frankenstein> >_>
[15:22] <rob-vir-u17> no niternet at home
[15:23] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: explain how you install a package
[15:23] <rob-vir-u17> ikonia: apt-get update: then it returns errors because it cannot connect to the urls
[15:23] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: right, that's never going to work
[15:24] <rob-vir-u17> so I copies the urls to a pendrive
[15:24] <ikonia> the urls ?
[15:24] <ikonia> what do you mean
[15:24] <ikonia> the URL just points at a host on the internet, copying that to a pendrive won't do anything
[15:24] <rob-vir-u17> something like /pool/main/ubuntu/apps/vlc.deb
[15:25] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: so you copy the deb file from the internet repo to the local pen drive
[15:25] <ikonia> thats a very hard way of working
[15:25] <rob-vir-u17> yeah, sort of, they end up in /var/cache/apt/archives
[15:26] <ikonia> so you fool it to think it's downloading it by putting it in the local cache
[15:26] <rob-vir-u17> yeah, but when packages are moved replaced updated or renamed the old urls dont work
[15:26] <ikonia> no, they won't
[15:26] <ikonia> this is a bad way of working
[15:27] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: I'd suggest you need one of 3 options
[15:27] <ikonia> 1.) a local mirror - you'll need enough disk space to transfer a mirror to your local machine to act as a local repo
[15:27] <rob-vir-u17> the whole repo?
[15:27] <ikonia> 2.) apt-on-cd !aptoncd from the bot
[15:27] <kikwkh> hello
[15:28] <rob-vir-u17> I've tried apt-on-cd with mixed results.
[15:28] <ikonia> 3.) use the install CD as a repo, however it will not contain all repos (only main)
[15:28] <rob-vir-u17> exactly. Many of the apps I need arent on the cd
[15:28] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: they way you are currently working will break as packages update and depdnencies update, yet your local machine doesn't
[15:28] <kikwkh> I have problems using nvidia proprietary drivers in ubuntu 16.04
[15:28] <rob-vir-u17> ikonia not really
[15:28] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: yes really
[15:29] <rob-vir-u17> when new packages are released I also get the dependencies urls
[15:29] <rob-vir-u17> it's just like being connected to the internet, only you download the pkgs manually
[15:29] <rob-vir-u17> only I haven't figured out how to update it manually
[15:29] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: you can't get the dependencies
[15:29] <Frankenstein> this isn't like being connected to the internet at all
[15:30] <rob-vir-u17> ikonia I can, otherwise I wouldnt have been able to install many software
[15:30] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: as you'll end up with package 1+deps, then X months later package 2+ different deps that will conflict
[15:30] <chibill1> My ubuntu install hangs at a purple screen. (After I finally got it to do anything other than sit at a black screen by using nomodeset)
[15:30] <rob-vir-u17> ikonia the pkgs will simply be upgraded
[15:31] <ikonia> no, they wo'nt
[15:31] <rob-vir-u17> they do
[15:31] <rob-vir-u17> I have updated a lot of software this way
[15:31] <chibill1> Any idea what I should do?
[15:31] <rob-vir-u17> an explanation of what apt-get update does would help
[15:31] <ikonia> rob-vir-u17: they can't work like that, sorry
[15:31] <kikwkh> My CPU is Intel Pentium Dual core with GeForce 7300 LE graphics. I tried using nvidia drivers from Additona Drivers. Unity doesn't render properly. Then I tried adding the graphics drivers ppa and tried installing nvida 304.132 driver. It also didn't help -- unity doesn't start. My machine is running 16.04. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
[15:31] <ikonia> apt-get update just updates the package meta data
[15:32] <rob-vir-u17> it downloads something
[15:32] <chibill1> Update updates the version info. Upgrade upgrades the package based off that infi
[15:33] <rob-vir-u17> cause if your not online apt-get dont work. So what does it download?
[15:33] <Frankenstein> apt-get can work offline
[15:33] <chibill1> The version info from the servers.
[15:33] <rob-vir-u17> Frankenstein: I meant apt-get update
[15:33] <chibill1> It downloads the version information. Like what the latest is.
[15:33] <rob-vir-u17> chibill1: does it not download some sort of text file containing pkgs info?
[15:34] <chibill1> Sort of.
[15:34] <rob-vir-u17> great. And that text file has a url right? I need that
[15:34] <chibill1> Mostly
[15:34] <chibill1> No
[15:34] <chibill1> I don't know.
[15:34] <rob-vir-u17> how to retrieve it from apt-get update
[15:34] <chibill1> I came here to get help with my purple screening install.
[15:35] <rob-vir-u17> sorry didnt see
[15:35] <rob-vir-u17> lol
[15:35] <rob-vir-u17> go ahead its your turn
[15:35] <chibill1> Got it to go from black screen to purple...
[15:35] <chibill1> By adding the nomodeset arg
[15:35] <ioria> chibill1, can you  open a console ? ctrl+alt+f1 (f2)
[15:35] <chibill1> But now it just hangs at a purple screen.
[15:36] <chibill1> No
[15:36] <chibill1> This screen appears right after grub disappears.
[15:37] <ioria> chibill1, press ESC, wait until it finishes , wait a minute, and try to open the console
[15:37] <ThePotato> ok
[15:37] <chibill1> Esc does nothing
[15:37] <ThePotato> Jordan_U: im back with some bad news
[15:37] <rohan> hello all. When I click on the software updater in Unity, nothing appears to happen, is this normal?
[15:38] <chibill1> I hate that my nvidia card in my laptop at times like this.
[15:38] <ThePotato> Jordan_U: i reinstalled ubuntu and it took significantly longer, and then Dell SupportAssist comes up and scans for hours on end
[15:38] <rohan> it has the little arrow to the left of it, but I can't view anything
[15:39] <allizom> kikwkh: I have a desktop with the same GPU and nouveau works well enough. Do you specifically need the proprietary driver?
[15:39] <ioria> chibill1, choose recovery thenfrom grub
[15:39] <chibill_> My irc client just crashes.
[15:40] <chibill_> But I am back.
[15:40] <NoImNotNineVolt> i recommend irssi. it has never crashed on me in years of ircing.
[15:41] <prese_lp> hi, any one having problems with nvidia 304 drivers in Ubuntu 16.04? I can't boot into the system after installing the driver. Nouveau works fine though.
[15:41] <chibill_> Any other ideas why it's stuck in a purple screen. (On Android. As my laptop is what I having problems with)
[15:41] <rohan> How should I perform and upgrade if I can't see the updater?
[15:41] <ioria> chibill_, you probably need to install nvidia drivers and prime . are you on an hybrid system ?
[15:42] <chibill_> Not sure what you mean by hybrid but yes I can use my i7 gpu and nvidia card at the same time. (I set nomodeset to even get past a black screen) so not sure how to do anything now.
[15:42] <rohan> Should I just pick upthe computer and shake it really ahrd?
[15:43] <rohan> hard?
[15:43] <ioria> chibill1, that's an hybrid system  (intel + nvidia)
[15:44] <chibill2> My internet times
[15:44] <chibill2> Timed out again.
[15:44] <ioria> chibill2,  usually that issue does not stop you from opening a console,
[15:45] <|VAH|-BlueTu> lol
[15:45] <|VAH|-BlueTu> lol
[15:45] <|VAH|-BlueTu> lol
[15:45] <|VAH|-BlueTu> lol
[15:45] <rohan> Is it normal in 14.04 to NOT be able to see the updater?
[15:45] <chibill2> Does the problem normally start right after grub disappears? And the fix for the problem on the ask ubuntu is to use nomodeset which I already am.
[15:47] <ioria> chibill2, if you can't open a console,  select Advanced Option -> Recovery from the Grub screen
[15:48] <chibill2> Okay. I will in a sec
[15:52] <chibill2> The recovory loads. Now what?
[15:53] <ioria> chibill2,  enable networking and then root shell
[15:53] <Pharaoh> Hi! I need some help to fix graphics for 16.10 - I have an AMD GPU. I tried amd-gpu pro last time and I could not log in
[15:54] <Pharaoh> Should I just wait for updates or do we have a possible solution?
[15:54] <chibill2> When I enable networking it spams grwp :./etc/resolv.conf No such file or directory
[15:55] <chibill2> I got it to load the system some how.
[15:55] <ioria> chibill2,  mmm,    root shell ?
[15:55] <meddy> hey I have a problem with loging into ubuntu software center, it says that my e-mail/password is not valid(in 100% is). I found on the net that it was some kind of bug
[15:56] <bulletxt> hi, im in the process of upgrading from ubuntu 12.04 to 14.04,  before proceeding I noticed the upgrade wants to automatically remove (without choice) some external packages I installed.... can this be avoided? thanks
[15:56] <Pharaoh> @meddy - i have experienced that bug too.
[15:56] <chibill2> I was able to get a root shell. Not sure if the networking I
[15:56] <BluesKaj> Pharaoh, did you try xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu ?
[15:56] <chibill2> Is up.
[15:56] <meddy> @Pharaoh have you fixed that anyway?
[15:56] <Pharaoh> BluesKaj - how do I do that?
[15:56] <ioria> chibill2,  try sudo apt update
[15:57] <ioria> chibill2,  or just   apt update
[15:57] <chibill2> No networking apparently.
[15:57] <BluesKaj> Pharaoh, open a terminal, sudo apt install xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu
[15:57] <ioria> chibill2,  wifi or cable ?
[15:58] <chibill2> I should be able to plug it into a cable in like e
[15:58] <chibill2> 30 min
[15:58] <chibill2> I can't remember how to set wifi up from the shell.
[15:58] <ioria> chibill2,  ping 8.8.8.8   is dead ?
[15:58] <chibill2> I have no
[15:58] <chibill2> I am not in a network...
[15:59] <chibill2> I would not connect
[15:59] <ioria> chibill2,  yep, well exit and resume see what happens
[16:00] <bulletxt> anyone? Any idea why the upgrade wants to remove some packages without letting me choose? thanks
[16:00] <Pharaoh> BluesKaj - xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu is already the newest version (1.1.2-1)
[16:00] <Pharaoh> where (if) can I make the switch from intel proc to AMD Gpu?
[16:01] <chibill2> Welp still got a purple screen. Think I need to wait the 25 min and then do the apt-get update and upgrade
[16:02] <Eragon> what is going on here
[16:02] <meddy> lol have anyone had a device which speaker sound was playing through headphones channel?
[16:02] <Eragon> exit
[16:04] <Bona_> Anyone knows whats up with the #rsyslog channel?
[16:05] <Bona_> It says channel name is illegal...
[16:05] <mabus> works for me
[16:05] <devnull84> works for me
[16:05] <devnull84> register your nick ?
[16:05] <devnull84> or identify
[16:05] <devnull84> or both :P
[16:07] <Bona_> im sorry, im new to the concept of IRC channels. So i have to register first on the rsyslog website to join the channel, correct?
[16:08] <NoImNotNineVolt> Bona_: probably not.
[16:08] <Pharaoh> BluesKaj - in software updates/ Additional Drivers, I see "this device is using an alternative driver" processor microcode firmware for cPU's from intel-microcode (proprietary)

[16:12] <Mojtaba> Hi, Does anyone know how to copy one directory to multiple destinations in parallel? (It is possible to do it in GUI; I want to do it in command line)
[16:12] <Pharaoh> BluesKaj - yes, some NqSQL db's use GPU power too.. .I am not sure why  the graphics are completely off since 16.10 installation. Any idea? I don't think the GPU is detected at all
[16:13] <BluesKaj> Pharaoh, it must be otherwise you wouldn't have any graphics

[16:21] <nathdwek> Hi there
[16:21] <Pharaoh> BluesKaj, what would built-in-display (on the display screen) mean?
[16:21] <nathdwek> Anyone recently upgraded to 16.10 and have hints on how to get haskell going?
[16:21] <nathdwek> Related to these issues: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/PIE
[16:22] <ALLCAPS> how do i change display to grayscale in linux?
[16:24] <nicanaca0> hey chat, trying to create my own fail2ban filter but unsure about a bit of syntax. Anyone know what \s stands for in the failregex field? I'm not sure if it's a regex flag (thought it should be /s though) or something else
[16:29] <TBotNik> All: Having huge performance problems. Don't understand anything about RAM vs SWAP or performance tuning, but looking in system monitor have 23 PostGres session and should only be 7.  How do I fix that? Trouble started with last Google/Mozilla consequitive upgrads.  Can't see anything under "ps -A" but appears to be some hidden java/javascripts.  Keep getting javascript timeout errors.
[16:30] <chibill_> So I am just going to give up on booting linux on my laptop... None of the help from here has helped. (An what I find online did not help either)
[16:31] <tommi> Chibill are you booting it from usb or cd ?
[16:31] <TBotNik> chibill_: Just got on, what's the problem?
[16:32] <chibill_> Ubuntu boots to a purple screen. (Had to use nomodeset just to not get a black screen) Booting off my hard disk where it is install tommi
[16:33] <tommi> Did you install it right ?
[16:33] <chibill_> Yes.
[16:33] <chibill_> Followed the grpahical install. (Had to use nomodeset to even get that working)
[16:34] <tommi> What laptop is it ?
[16:35] <chibill_> Bit of background I have a GP62 leopard pro from MSI. It has a i7 6700hq and also a nvidia gtx960M (<---- causing all my problems)
[16:35] <mabus> 0000000000000000000000000000000099999999999999999999999999999999999999999999yyyyyyyyyyytytytytytrtrtrererewewewewqwqwqqwqqw`qqwqqwqqw1q1q1~q2121
[16:36] <mabus> whoops sorry
[16:36] <tommi> That computer should be compatible with linux let me check what i can do
[16:37] <chibill_> It boots debian just fine but none of the networking works because it is using an older kernel.
[16:37] <chibill_> And when I update its kerenl basiclly same problem.
[16:37] <chibill_> So yeah.. Was trying ubuntu because it has an already updated kernel
[16:39] <wudu_honour> why th ATI driver is so hard to install in  ubuntu?
[16:40] <wudu_honour> version 16.04 not support, how can I do ?
[16:41] <tommi> Chibill have you tried to start in recovery mode ?
[16:41] <Yenlo> hi, can anyone please tell me how to disable the keyboard shortcut (F-key + F12) for STANDBY?
[16:42] <chibill_> Yeah Recovery sort of works... (X does not work properly but I can at least get a root shell)
[16:42] <elichai2> how can I access automounted MTP devices(by nautilus I think) via terminal?
[16:43] <elichai2> tried here: cd /run/user/1000/gvfs/mtp\:host=%5Busb%3A001%2C006%5D/ but no permissions(even root)
[16:44] <tommi> Ok chibill boot the laptop and let me know when it hangs on purple screen
[16:45] <chibill_> I am on the laptop right now. (Would need to get my irc on my phone)
[16:45] <chibill_> I dual boot windows 10 if that matters.
[16:45] <nacc> wudu_honour: what ati driver? do you mean fglrx?
[16:45] <tommi> Dual boot should not be a problem
[16:46] <chibill_> Also if your going to suggest to press esc otr ctrl-alt-f1 or (f2) that did not work when I asked for help before.
[16:47] <tommi> When the computer hangs at purple screen try shift + f3 that will bring you to commandprompt
[16:47] <tommi> At the command prompt login and type
[16:47] <tommi> sudo service lightdm start
[16:48] <ikonia> tgm4883: is the bot problem sorted ?
[16:48] <chibill_> okay. I will try that and also star irc on my phone.
[16:48] <wudu_honour> do you  have de xorg ?
[16:49] <chibill_> okay Going to try booting.
[16:50] <tommi> Let me know when it hangs
[16:51] <elichai2> anyone?
[16:51] <wudu_honour> ?
[16:51] <tommi> ?
[16:51] <elichai2> how can I access automounted MTP devices(by nautilus I think) via terminal?
[16:51] <elichai2> tried here: cd /run/user/1000/gvfs/mtp\:host=%5Busb%3A001%2C006%5D/ but no permissions(even root)
[16:52] <tommi> Tested sudo su ?
[16:52] <elichai2> yep
[16:52] <wudu_honour> sudo passwd root then su
[16:53] <tgm4883> ikonia: yea, looks like it's gone

[16:53] <Bashing-om> elichai2: What is the mount point ? pastebin ' ls -al /media/<username>/ ' .. then we can access that file system from terminal .
[16:53] <elichai2> wudu_honour, passwd is for changing password...
[16:54] <tommi> Sudo su should work
[16:56] <elichai2> Bashing-om, http://pastebin.com/zx575yTW
[16:56] <elichai2> tommi, tired
[16:56] <tommi> ?
[16:57] <tommi> If you try
[16:57] <tommi> If you tried sudo su and it still wont work i have no idea what the problem is
[16:57] <elichai2> maybe that's not the mount point
[16:58] <wudu_honour> I agree with you , elichai2
[16:58] <elichai2> wudu_honour, so how can I find the mount point?
[16:58] <Bashing-om> elichai2: K and of the 4 .. which is the present target to mount ?
[16:59] <elichai2> Bashing-om, what K and 4?
[17:00] <elichai2> ohh the hebrew in my system distrubted the formating
[17:00] <tommi> Chilbil still here ?
[17:01] <Bashing-om> elichai2: K is your reply seen, and your response is invired .. 4 is the number of mounts in /media . to know what devices are present. try : ' sudo fdisk -lu ' .
[17:05] <elichai2> Bashing-om, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23407722/
[17:08] <elichai2> only 1 directory inside /media/elichai2 is in use
[17:08] <elichai2> the others are empty (probably old mounts)
[17:08] <rickardve> Anyone who managed to use ec2-ami-tools to bundle a Ubuntu 16.04 Instance Store AMI? I get problems with grub, and it failes to boot.
[17:08] <rickardve> (It does work with 14.04 and 16.10)
[17:10] <chibill2> I am here.
[17:10] <tommi> Chibil did it work ?
[17:10] <nacc> rickardve: i'd ask in #ubuntu-server, maybe?
[17:10] <Bashing-om> elichai2: And it is sda2 - oldHDD - that you desire to access from terminal ?
[17:11] <chibill2> I am reinstalling. (I wiped it out after trying to get passed the purple screen for a few hours..
[17:11] <chibill2> Be for)
[17:11] <tommi> Did you try what i wrote ?
[17:11] <rickardve> nacc: good idea.
[17:11] <elichai2> no, I think I said it. MTP doesn't show up on lsblk and stuff like that

[17:22] <guru> lol
[17:23] <Anonymu> Dont laught at my name ):
[17:24] <chibill2> Almost done reinstalling. Its odd that the installed works fine but the OS does not.
[17:24] <Skyrider> Is there an fstab command line to skip fsck?
[17:24] <Anonymu> Chibill it might be due to that ubuntu wont load the desktop enviorment
[17:24] <Anonymu> Sorry for my bad english
[17:24] <LondonAppDev> Hey guys, when I run 'nmcli device show wlp6s0', the DNS is set to a 10.x address, but when I do 'nslookup' it uses Google's DNS which are in the resolve.conf file... How can I make the resolve.conf file automatically update with the networks local dns?
[17:25] <Skyrider> And how to do really alter' your hostname?
[17:25] <auronandace> !hostname | Skyrider
[17:25] <Skyrider> That explains much
[17:25] <Skyrider> I only edited 1 file.
[17:25] <Skyrider> I did use hostname <newonehere> but that did not work.
[17:26] <Anonymu> Chibill: if it still hangs at purple screen do as i wrote. When it boot into command prompt
[17:26] <chibill2> Okay.
[17:27] <joescript> hi
[17:27] <joescript> has any try i3 on ubuntu ??
[17:27] <Anonymu> There you can either test startx or sudo service lightdm start
[17:27] <auronandace> joescript: i'm using i3, works great
[17:28] <joescript> Don ubuntu ?? how it works for you and the learning curve?
[17:28] <auronandace> joescript: yes, on ubuntu 16.10 and my laptop on 16.04
[17:28] <Anonymu> Had the same problem with ubuntu hanging at purple screen. I found out it was due to faulty installation wich caused it to not load the desktop/gui
[17:28] <joescript> does i3 handle mulit diplay fine?
[17:29] <chibill2> What did I have to hit to get the console?
[17:29] <auronandace> joescript: i haven't tried multiple displays sorry, but once you get used to a few key combinations it is very useful
[17:29] <Anonymu> shift + f12 i think it was
[17:29] <Anonymu> or shift + f2 cant remember xD
[17:29] <joescript> do you use it with other WM tools or panels?
[17:30] <chibill2> It work... This time the install worked. Very odd.
[17:30] <auronandace> joescript: just the default that gets dragged in by the package manager
[17:30] <chibill2> Now to install the nvidia driver so I don't have to use nomodeset
[17:30] <auronandace> joescript: i also install lxappearance to set the gtk theme for my graphical apps
[17:31] <Anonymu> You should not need to start with nomodeset
[17:31] <chibill2> I do or else it black screens. (Nvidia is shity)
[17:31] <Anonymu> Your gpu should be compatible out of the box
[17:31] <joescript> auronandace , some say to use suckless-tools with it
[17:32] <auronandace> !info suckless-tools
[17:32] <chibill2> Really?
[17:32] <Anonymu> Yes chibill2
[17:32] <Anonymu> Ubuntu should be able to detect the gpu during installation
[17:32] <auronandace> joescript: never tried that, i'm not much of an advanced user so the defaults are fine for me
[17:33] <chibill2> Okay. Any idea how to connect to a WPA2-Enterprise wifi point in ubuntu?
[17:34] <Anonymu> A question about the blackscreen you get when you boot without nomodeset
[17:34] <Anonymu> For how long have you tried to have the computer on with blackscreen
[17:35] <guru> hey
[17:35] <guru> any
[17:35] <Anonymu> Yes

[17:40] <guru> yes
[17:40] <guru> all 4 are primar
[17:41] <guru> all 4 are primary
[17:42] <Bashing-om> guru: Show us what you are working with ... We expect win10 to be UEFI rather than MBR partitioning .

[17:48] <nacc> Bray90820: `df -h /boot/`?
[17:48] <Bray90820> Thanks
[17:48] <guru> did u  get it?
[17:48] <nacc> Bray90820: that presumes it is its own partition
[17:48] <nacc> Bray90820: if it is not, the question doesn't make sense :)
[17:48] <Bashing-om> guru: Run ' sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 ' . The result is a URL back in terminal . Pass that link back here .
[17:49] <younder> jamie_1, chromium os?
[17:49] <Bray90820> nacc: That was exactly what I wanted thanks
[17:49] <nacc> Bray90820: np
[17:49] <jamie_1> younder: ?
[17:49] <joescript> its cool aurnandace
[17:49] <younder> jamie_1, as in what about chromium os?
[17:50] <jamie_1> younder: no thanks lol, chromium is a good laugh, with what might be coming with it maybe, but as of right now chromium is not something i would invest my time in
[17:50] <guru> will it work without the packages?

[17:53] <Redfoxmoon> I've got a Dell laptop with second gen intel chipset, C/200 audio controller, snd-hda-intel module is loaded; but I get no sound
[17:53] <Guru2> Bashing-om: Run: command not found
[17:53] <Redfoxmoon> running up-to-date 16.04
[17:53] <Bashing-om> Guru2: sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 - only in a termimal .. and it will work .
[17:54] <auronandace> Redfoxmoon: try running alsamixer to see if any channels are muted
[17:54] <Guru2> Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/5pon
[17:54] <Redfoxmoon> auronandace, did; speaker was muted, unmuted
[17:54] <Redfoxmoon> still got the same issue
[17:55] <mqg> How to change the order of execution of services at startup?
[17:55] <ZarroBoogs> mqg: what release of Ubuntu are you running?
[17:55] <mqg> Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu 14.04
[17:56] <ZarroBoogs> mqg: well, 16.04 uses systemd and 14.04 uses upstart, so there are different ways to do it on each release.
[17:56] <_leonardo> Is there any tutorial for using XChat-Gnome?
[17:56] <Redfoxmoon> auronandace, heh, helps to increase the volume...
[17:57] <isometric05> q: is there a known issue on Ubuntu 14.04.5 and installing via EFI?  Post-install in any virtual machine 14.04.5 EFI boot results in a black screen and a *hard* lock of the hypervisor. Tested on ESX and VirtualBox.  14.04.2 was working fine.
[17:57] <auronandace> Redfoxmoon: glad you got it sorted
[17:57] <Redfoxmoon> thanks :-)
[17:57] <sdexter> I am attempting to do upgradeson a 14.04 machine and getting the following error: files list file for package 'linux-generic' is missing final newline
[17:57] <EriC^^> isometric05: i think efi + ubuntu in vbox doesn't work
[17:57] <Bashing-om> Guru2: You are so cirrect .. NBR partioning .. and Windows has all 4 partions taken up . A few options . 1) is one of the partions a Windows recovery partition where you can copy it off to a storage medium ?
[17:57] <EriC^^> just windows works in uefi mode in vbox isometric05
[17:57] <mqg> I know change service order with upstart using update-rc.d but with systemd not
[17:57] <auronandace> _leonardo: probably best to move to hexchat
[17:57] <mqg> You can help me  ?
[17:57] <isometric05> EriC^^: weird... 14.04.2 was working.
[17:57] <sdexter> and /var/lib/dpkg/linux-generic.list is not a list at all
[17:58] <_leonardo> But I am on xubuntu
[17:58] <isometric05> ok
[17:58] <ZarroBoogs> mqg: for 16.04+ take a look at the dependency information here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd#Handling_dependencies for 14.04: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#start-depends-on-another-service
[17:58] <auronandace> _leonardo: hexchat is available in the repos, works fine on xubuntu
[17:58] <Guru2> i dont care about that
[17:58] <_leonardo> @auronandace I will try HexChat. Thank you!
[17:58] <EriC^^> isometric05: not sure, it's what i remember though
[17:58] <_leonardo> exit
[17:58] <Guru2> i just want to dual boot it and and off to my sis
[17:59] <EriC^^> isometric05: might be wrong
[17:59] <isometric05> EriC^^: just a weird change.  I don't see people running into it online, but I don't think a ton of people are looking at 14.04.5 in depth since 16.04 is out
[18:00] <isometric05> *esp* analyzing EFI boot. I think 14.04 was the first Ubuntu release to support it
[18:00] <Bashing-om> Guru2: Well .. as Windows has all four primary partitions taken up . Ya got to do something to allow the partition for ubuntu to install to .
[18:00] <Guru2> so how can i do that
[18:00] <EriC^^> isometric05: http://askubuntu.com/questions/566315/virtualbox-boots-only-in-uefi-interactive-shell
[18:00] <Guru2> i have all the drives empty
[18:00] <Guru2> so i have no issues with DATA LOSS
[18:01] <daum_> hey guys -  i have a t460 which has an integrated intel skylake graphics card, when i have dual monitors (one displayport+hdmi) hooked up, i get tons of flickering.  I read some people suggested upgrade my kernel to 4.7, but wanted to see what you guys suggest
[18:02] <SOUL_OF_ROOT_> Hi!
[18:02] <Guru2> Bashing-om:  so i have no issues with the losing any data , conisder that i had flashed the hardrive and then installed brand new windows yestrday
[18:02] <Guru2> and trying to install ubuntu today
[18:03] <auronandace> daum_: skylake is quite new so a newer kernel does work better, i used to have issues with videos in vlc on 16.04 but on 16.10 it works fine (4.8 kernel so skylake is better supported)
[18:03] <daum_> auronandace, did you also install https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/intel-graphics-update-tool-linux-os-v2.0.2 ?
[18:03] <auronandace> daum_: no
[18:04] <daum_> ok - so probably best for me to just look up how to install a 4.7/4.8 kernel? i assume that is fine even though i'm on 16.04?
[18:05] <Bashing-om> Guru2: The thing is that presently all 4 partitions are in use .. there can be ONLY 4 primary partitions in a MBR scheme . Now you have to decide which Windows' partition you can delete and possibly shrink the Windows' operating system partition then .
[18:05] <auronandace> daum_: LTS releases also get access to newer kernels from newer releases so 4.8 from 16.10 should be available in 16.04
[18:06] <Guru2> Bashing-om: so i have installed windows in C drive so ui want me to shrink C? and install there?
[18:06] <daum_> ok will take a look to see hwo i do that upgrade, thanks!
[18:06] <isometric05> EriC^^: the issue isn't getting stuck at the EFI shell though.  We get a hard lockup at a black screen
[18:06] <sdexter> ugh it looks like a lot of them are corrupted too. bleh
[18:06] <EriC^^> isometric05: oh
[18:07] <isometric05> EriC^^: it's weird... the efi loader / kernel crashes so hard it takes virtualbox down with it on my desktop
[18:07] <isometric05> Our ESX nodes also lock up with the same issue.
[18:07] <isometric05> Disable EFI boot and everything works fine :-|
[18:08] <isometric05> also, it's post-install not pre.
[18:08] <Guru2> Bashing-om:  could u guide me through any link or some source where i can have look and follow up with the installtion?
[18:09] <Bashing-om> Guru2: NO ! I say again .. due to addressing , there can be ONLY 4 Primary partitions on the hard drive ( then we get into making that primary partition up as 'extended' and in this 'extended' is where ubuntu will be able to install . so you decide on which partition to delete .
[18:09] <auronandace> Guru2: you have 4 partitions already, you need to delete one to make room for ubuntu
[18:10] <EriC^^> Guru2: the last partition doesn't have a filesystem it seems, maybe use it?
[18:11] <Guru2> EriC^^:  how do i do that
[18:11] <Guru2> Bashing-om:  how would i do that
[18:11] <EriC^^> Guru2: go to gparted and delete it
[18:11] <EriC^^> then install ubuntu and choose alongside windows
[18:13] <Guru2> Root privileges are required for running gparted.
[18:13] <EriC^^> go to the dash and type gparted
[18:13] <EriC^^> (first icon on the left)
[18:14] <Bray90820> other flavors of ubuntu like Kubuntu and Lubuntu and stuff have the same kernel right
[18:14] <auronandace> Bray90820: yes
[18:14] <Bray90820> Alright
[18:15] <Guru2> EriC^^:  alright , i got it
[18:15] <HSD_> Hi - my 16.04 laptop tried to update and the kernal is nolonger valid.  what is the best way to copy my data to an external HD?  I am currently using it with a bootable usb
[18:15] <Bashing-om> Guru2: Bear in mind a 1st time install of ubuntu for the long term requires 30 Gigs of space .
[18:16] <Guru2> Bashing-om:  sure thing
[18:16] <EriC^^> HSD_: rsync
[18:17] <Guru2> Bashing-om:  right now suppose i delete a part and i use that , through windows i can use that partion right?
[18:17] <EriC^^> HSD_: you can boot an older kernel if you'd like
[18:17] <EriC^^> Guru2: not out of the box, windows doesn't support ext4
[18:17] <HSD_> Eric - thanks - I tried the older kernel and it didnt work
[18:18] <Bashing-om> Guru2: You are talking here about installing 2 separate OS .. Windows takes a bit of effort to get it to "see" ubuntu .
[18:18] <HSD_> i will try rsync
[18:18] <Guru2> suppose i choose a disk which has 200gb right now , can i allocation like only 50gb and allocate the rest 150 for the other part?
[18:18] <EriC^^> HSD_: oh, well to backup your stuff mount both partitions somewhere and then sudo rsync -av /path/to/stuff /path/to/mounted/exthdd
[18:19] <EriC^^> Guru2: you have around 500gb at the end
[18:19] <EriC^^> in partition #4 that doesn't have a filesystem
[18:19] <Guru2> Yes
[18:19] <Guru2>  i do
[18:19] <Guru2> EriC^^: yes i do
[18:20] <Guru2> EriC^^: yes there is no file system right
[18:20] <EriC^^> you could make an extended partition with it, and make 50gb for ubuntu and the rest a ntfs that windows will see and use
[18:20] <Guru2> EriC^^:  i had left that space becuase i could do that for the ubnutu
[18:20] <HSD_> Eric
[18:20] <Guru2> EriC^^: thats what i was about to do so i needed assitance :D
[18:21] <HSD_> Eric^^ thanks
[18:21] <EriC^^> HSD_: no problem
[18:21] <Guru2> EriC^^: okay i create a new on that unallocated drive right?
[18:21] <Guru2> EriC^^:  but i am kinda  of dumb , i need assitance so that i dont go wrong
[18:21] <EriC^^> Guru2: yeah, delete the 4th partition then create the extended one
[18:22] <Bashing-om> Guru2: A matter of sematics .. you presently have 1 hard drive of 1TB capacity .. and presently partitioned as MBR with ALL 4 partitions in use . Ubuntu sees this 1TB drive as 'sda' and on this sda are the 4 partitions sda1, sda2, sda3, sda4 . Ya got to delete ( Windows recovey ??) 1 of those primary partitions to become "unallocated" space .. the ubuntu installer will then deal with it .
[18:23] <Guru2> EriC^^:  help me wout with free space preceeding and following
[18:23] <EriC^^> Guru2: for the extended one use all the space, leave 0 space following it
[18:24] <Guru2> Bashing-om:  so u mean to say that first part i remove i have no issues at all?
[18:26] <sponge> If I have problems with my HD controller, will I see it in the syslog?
[18:26] <Bashing-om> Guru2: Once the empty partition is deleted .. then it is up to you what you want to do .. eric is great here to advise on "something else" .. or you have the option of "install alongside" and let the install wizard take care of all details .
[18:28] <Bashing-om> GinoManWorks: ^ however " install alongside" will not give you the option to make up a shared NTFS 'logical' partition .
[18:29] <GinoManWorks> You mean... Guru2?
[18:29] <OerHeks> always make space from within windows
[18:29] <Guru2> Bashing-om: sure , ill have a word with eric , thanks :)
[18:29] <Guru2> EriC^^:
[18:29] <Guru2> EriC^^:  right now i have this
[18:30] <Guru2> EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23408011/
[18:30] <EriC^^> Guru2: great
[18:30] <EriC^^> create now a logical partition for windows and leave the rest for ubuntu
[18:31] <Guru2> EriC^^: so right now my next step would be?
[18:31] <EriC^^> as unallocated space
[18:31] <plzhelpmeineedhe> I''m stupid or something, can someone help out with iptables?
[18:31] <plzhelpmeineedhe> On ubuntu 14.04 desktop.
[18:31] <plzhelpmeineedhe> I created a rule by running: sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -m iprange —src-range 146.66.156.0-146.66.156.255 -j DROP
[18:31] <plzhelpmeineedhe> that should block connection to those ips in range, right?
[18:31] <plzhelpmeineedhe> why can I still ping them?
[18:32] <EriC^^> Guru2: make the windows partition inside the extended one with the space that's left from the ubuntu size
[18:32] <plzhelpmeineedhe> I do sudo iptables -L and see: DROP       all  —  anywhere             anywhere             source IP range 146.66.156.0-146.66.156.255
[18:32] <EriC^^> Guru2: so around 630gb windows partition
[18:32] <plzhelpmeineedhe> PING 146.66.156.1 (146.66.156.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
[18:32] <plzhelpmeineedhe> 64 bytes from 146.66.156.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=51 time=72.4 ms
[18:32] <plzhelpmeineedhe> still works
[18:33] <EriC^^> Guru2: ubuntu will be left with around 50gb to install to
[18:33] <Guru2> EriC^^: okay so file system shall be?
[18:33] <EriC^^> Guru2: ntfs
[18:33] <harrr> In which  file does ubuntu settings sound set how high you can scroll the volume?
[18:33] <Guru2> EriC^^: thanks
[18:33] <OerHeks> sudo iptables -A INPUT -s  146.66.156.0/24 -j DROP
[18:34] <EriC^^> harrr: try gsettings list-recursively | grep volume
[18:34] <plzhelpmeineedhe> OerHeks, but how do I block my PC from connecting to it?
[18:34] <Guru2> EriC^^: i have NTFS 560gb and rest around 60gb unallocated again
[18:34] <plzhelpmeineedhe> I want so no data to those IPs can leave my PC
[18:35] <Guru2> EriC^^: so do u really need 60gb for ubuntu?
[18:35] <EriC^^> Guru2: ok, cool, well that's a good size
[18:35] <Guru2> EriC^^: thanks
[18:35] <Guru2> EriC^^: now my next step of action would be?
[18:35] <harrr> Thank you. Shall I copy and paste the full output?
[18:36] <EriC^^> Guru2: save the changes and then click on install ubuntu on the desktop
[18:37] <harrr> gsettings list-recursively | grep volume

[18:42] <spotter> is there a repo for the latest aws cli?  the one in yakkety is 1.10.1 which is very old, they are up to 1.10.38
[18:44] <sergiootl> test
[18:45] <harrr> I have asked the question on several ubuntu forums. Where can I ask the question?
[18:45] <Guest6906969> repeat your question
[18:47] <harrr> In which  file does ubuntu settings sound set how high you can scroll the volume?
[18:48] <ppf> harrr: isn't that always 100%?
[18:48] <ioria> harrr, man pactl
[18:49] <ioria> harrr, let me see if i can find a link  ...
[18:49] <harrr> On ubuntu 16.04 64bit mate desktop you have not the option to check 'allow louder than 100%'. I want to set mate sound to 200%.
[18:49] <ioria> harrr, http://askubuntu.com/questions/322486/increase-sound-level
[18:50] <OerHeks> lolz 200% .. get real, over 100% gives sound a bad hearing.
[18:50] <Guest6906969> OerHeks, known as clipping and distortion :)
[18:52] <OerHeks> 150% is the max you can damage your ears with
[18:52] <Guest6906969> OerHeks, lol, its a line level. thats irrelevant
[18:54] <NoImNotNineVolt> yea seriously, that's some terribly misleading information :P
[18:55] <harrr> I will start another computer that runs ubuntu 16.04 and test the command on mate desktop.
[18:55] <NoImNotNineVolt> clipping is often introduced in music intentionally, so to call it "bad" is not accurate.
[18:56] <viju> Hi, on terminal it suggested use sudo apt autoremove
[18:56] <viju> and now it's messing up with the bootloader and all. Is it something to be worried of?
[18:57] <ioria> viju, can you paste it ?
[18:57] <viju> It said following files are not required
[18:57] <Bashing-om> viju: define " messing up " .
[18:57] <OerHeks> viju, "and now it's messing up with the bootloader " can be totally normal, removing a kernel line from grub
[18:58] <viju> Looks like it's removing some old versions, but the last time I ran it just made my whole system unusable
[18:58] <OerHeks> be happy you don't have to do all those commands manually :-D
[18:58] <viju> ~pastebin
[18:58] <ioria> viju, probably you removed an old kernel, and grub has been reconfigured
[18:58] <Mojtaba> Hi, Does anyone know how to copy one directory to multiple destinations in parallel? (It is possible to do it in GUI; I want to do it in command line)
[18:58] <viju> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23408122/
[19:00] <capoderra> hello, all. I've set up a raid 0 with 2 disks. I recently moved and I've wasted too much time trying to figure out what went wrong with my Ubuntu server, so I've decided to re-install. I was wonder if it was possible to pick up my two disks during the installation and continue where I left off, or if I would have to reconfigure a new raid 0 with the new installation of Ubuntu. Any ideas?
[19:00] <ioria> viju, dpkg -l | grep linux-headers*
[19:00] <NoImNotNineVolt> Mojtaba: why not symlink?
[19:00] <Mojtaba> NoImNotNineVolt: It is backup
[19:00] <NoImNotNineVolt> fair enough.
[19:01] <NoImNotNineVolt> use rsync for backups.
[19:01] <Guest6906969> capoderra, you can test this yourself by booting live and using mdadm to detect
[19:02] <viju> ioria, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23408136/
[19:02] <Guest6906969> Mojtaba, kick of multiple scripts at same time with rsync?
[19:02] <capoderra> Guest6906969: I have booted from a live USB and used it to offload some stuff from md0 that I didn't want to lose
[19:02] <Guest6906969> capoderra, then you have your answer.
[19:03] <capoderra> Guest6906969: hot damn
[19:03] <Guest6906969> :)
[19:03] <SpeakerToMeat> Hello.
[19:03] <harrr> the command does not work. If you after entering the command, scroll the sound icon in the mate menu bar, you cannot scroll above 100%.
[19:04]  * gopi1410 waves
[19:04] <viju> Also, what do these lines mean?http://paste.ubuntu.com/23408148/
[19:04] <Mojtaba> Guest6906969: I want to do it in one shot. any command which can make it in parallel
[19:04] <harrr> In mate sound preferences you can scroll volume level above 100%.
[19:04] <Mojtaba> Any other thought?
[19:05] <Guest6906969> Mojtaba, i just answered that
[19:05] <capoderra> Guest6906969: so during install, I just install ubuntu server to my third disk and ignore the fact that I have two other disks?
[19:05] <EriC^^> Mojtaba: for i in /location1 /location2; do rsync -av /stuff "$i" &; done
[19:06] <Guest6906969> capoderra, IMO yes. You can add your RAID mounts afterward. FYI, you should make a backup in case things go wierd.
[19:06] <harrr> For some reason, non gnome desktops have no 'allow louder than 100%' option.
[19:06] <EriC^^> effectively what Guest6906969 suggested, in a command
[19:06]  * h4ckcod3r high fives
[19:06] <ioria> viju, ok, you don't have the linux-headers-4.4.0-31-generic (and i don't know why) ... but you get other errors ?
[19:06] <guru> EriC^^: woah thanks mannnn
[19:07] <guru> EriC^^:  everything great
[19:07] <capoderra> Guest6906969: The clouds just parted and a shaft of light is shinning down form the heavens. I hear music.

[19:07] <Guest6906969> capoderra, make your backups then break out the champagne.
[19:07] <guru> Bashing-om: thanks to you too
[19:07] <guru> EriC^^: chaoo good night
[19:07] <EriC^^> guru: thanks you too
[19:08] <Guest6906969> Hello. Ubuntu 16.04. Not having a problem just curious(for a server script). Is it sufficient to run smartmontools on a live machine for reporting? Relevant: https://www.maketecheasier.com/monitor-hard-disk-health-linux/
[19:08] <ioria> viju,  not sure it's related with the headers problem
[19:09] <ppf> Guest6906969: what do you mean by 'live machine'?
[19:09] <viju> ok
[19:09] <HSD_> Hi - I am trying to backup my home diretory from a 16.04 laptop.  the OS dies when it tried to auto update.  I could not boot to an old kernel.  My problem is usr/home/bob is unreadable.  how do I get the permissions back to copy photos and documents from /bob?
[19:09] <SpeakerToMeat> Guest6906969: And what kind of reporting
[19:10] <SpeakerToMeat> Guest6906969: smartctl (from smartmontools) should read the smart status in most disks (if smart is enabled in bios). And there's tests you can perform on live disks (with limitations)
[19:10] <EriC^^> HSD_: try sudo -i
[19:10] <EriC^^> then browse around
[19:10] <HuHa> HSD_: are you using an encrypted home directory?
[19:10] <heye> can anyone help with squashfs?
[19:10] <Guest6906969> SpeakerToMeat, I have a server that is sitting elsewhere on the net. It runs SSH(no pass) and accepts incoming connections for an rsync. Anyway, I have a reporting script on this box to email me reports and occasionally I want a status check(IP, df -h, etc). I also want to run a health check occasionally in case of SMART warning of HDD failures.
[19:10] <HSD_> eric^^ thanks - HuHa - no
[19:10] <Bashing-om> HSD_: Have you tried a file system check/repair on that partition ?
[19:11] <HuHa> HSD_: ok, that makes everyting a bit easier ;-)
[19:11] <HSD_> Bashing-om  - no
[19:11] <HSD_> Bashing-om  - on boot up I get a kenrel panic message
[19:12] <HuHa> HSD_: tried booting from a USB stick with a live system?
[19:12] <HuHa> HSD_: if that works, you can simply mount that partition
[19:13] <HSD_> I am using a bootable usb now.  (sudo mount usr/bob) ?
[19:13] <SpeakerToMeat> Guest6906969: Yes with smartmontools you could set up smartd to run (a daemon), and email you when something goes bump
[19:13] <HSD_> noob here...
[19:13] <Bashing-om> HSD_: Encryption a factor here on your /home ?
[19:13] <HuHa> HSD_: you need to find out where the home directory is - on what partition
[19:13] <HSD_> Bashing-om: none
[19:14] <Guest6906969> SpeakerToMeat, do you have experience with smartd? I am thinking of going that route but have some questions.
[19:14] <HSD_> HuHa: i can see it in the filemamager
[19:14] <HuHa> HSD_: then you are almost there
[19:15] <SpeakerToMeat> Guest6906969: Btw is this a dedicated server? running smart in a PVS is something your provider should do, not you
[19:15] <HuHa> HSD_: what filemanager are you using?
[19:15] <heye> ?
[19:15] <Bashing-om> HSD_: As you are already booted with a liveUSB . wont take much to run that file system check . what returns ' sudo fdisk -lu ' to identify the target .
[19:15] <Guest6906969> SpeakerToMeat, nope. a headless box sitting without kb/mouse/mon
[19:15] <HuHa> HSD_: and what flavour of Ubuntu, for that matter - plain Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu
[19:15] <HSD_> HuHa: ubuntu 14.04 filemanger
[19:15] <HSD_> HuHa: plain
[19:15] <HuHa> that would probably be Nautilus
[19:15] <ppf> Guest6906969: i still didn't understand your question
[19:16] <SpeakerToMeat> Guest6906969: Not much, I normally run smartctl by hand, but here's an old guide as a starting point, https://blog.shadypixel.com/monitoring-hard-drive-health-on-linux-with-smartmontools/ and the smartmontools manuals might help further.
[19:16] <HSD_> HuHa: it is what comes on the bootable usb
[19:16] <Guest6906969> SpeakerToMeat, thanks for the link.
[19:16] <ppf> sufficient in what way? what do you need exactly?
[19:16] <Guest6906969> SpeakerToMeat, some of the links ive found are terse on detail
[19:16] <HuHa> HSD_: do you have another machine in your network you could copy the stuff to?
[19:16] <SpeakerToMeat> Guest6906969: Yes but is this server yours to use whole? or is it divided (virtualized or otherwise)? If it's not under your control, it's up to the server's owner to do the checks.... and if it's under your control, and virtualized, you need to do this on Dom0
[19:17] <Guest6906969> SpeakerToMeat, yes, mine. it's a headless box.
[19:17] <HuHa> HSD_: or a NAS or a large USB stick that would take all the stuff in your home directory?
[19:17] <HSD_> HuHa: i was going to use an external hd
[19:17] <HuHa> HSD_: ok, that's fine
[19:17] <HuHa> HSD_: the simple way is to just plug that external HD in and use the filemanager to copy your stuff
[19:18] <HuHa> HSD_: the more advanced way would be to use a shell and "rsync" and keep time stamps etc. - if that is important to you
[19:18] <HSD_> HuHa: that is not working - "bob" is unreadable
[19:18] <Guest6906969> SpeakerToMeat, the URL content you provided is identical to the one i mentioned earlier. :) Someone plagarized the other heh
[19:18] <HuHa> HSD_: ah, ok, so you tried that already... of course it is a real possibility that your disk has a real hardware error
[19:18] <HuHa> HSD_: but since you are already this far, it can't get that much worse anyway
[19:19] <HuHa> HSD_: so we'll try to talk you through unmounting that disk and using "fsck" to check for filesystem errors
[19:19] <HSD_> HuHa: if i just copy all of "bob" will i be able to set new premissions?  (I can read the drive, but not the directory)
[19:20] <HSD_> HuHa: great
[19:20] <HuHa> HSD_: you won't even be able to copy anything if you can't read it
[19:20] <HSD_> HuHa: got it
[19:21] <HuHa> HSD_: you _could_ try with "sudo", but very likely when running from a USB stick you are already using user ID 1000 which is the default for "bob" (if that's the only user account on that system, which is likely)
[19:21] <HSD_> HuHa: ok
[19:21] <HuHa> HSD_: so, from here on it's shell all the way - there be dragons etc. ;-)
[19:21] <Guest6906969> SpeakerToMeat, I think i have everything i need to do this.. thanks for the help.
[19:21] <HuHa> HSD_: so first open a shell window
[19:21] <HSD_> lol!
[19:21] <Bray90820> Can someone help me here auto remove doesn't seem to find my old kernels
[19:21] <Bray90820> http://pastebin.com/raw/9AkqKizK
[19:22] <HSD_> HuHa: is that "terminal" in noob speak?
[19:22] <HuHa> HSD_: yes
[19:22] <and_die> Where am I supposed to put binaries, /usr/bin ? ( context: upgrading to the latest static build of ffmpeg )
[19:22] <HSD_> HuHa: done
[19:22] <HuHa> HSD_: you know how to use pastebins? like https://paste.ubuntu.com/ ?
[19:22] <HSD_> HuHa: yes
[19:23] <HuHa> ok, so in that terminal, type    sudo fdisk -l    and pastebin the output
[19:24] <HSD_> HuHa: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23408219/
[19:26] <HuHa> HSD_: ok, so we have /dev/sda (the disk with that Ubuntu you are trying to back up), /dev/sdb (your external HD to save it to?), /dev/sdc (the stick you booted from?)
[19:27] <HuHa> HSD_: it's an LVM setup (logical volume manager), that makes everything a bit more complicated since you can't simply use plain partitions to do stuff
[19:27] <HSD_> HuHa: yes - that is correct
[19:28] <HuHa> now let's check what is currently mounted where - please pastebin the output of    mount
[19:30] <HSD_> HuHa: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23408249/
[19:30] <grac3> Hello. New to IRC and seeking help with a cloak
[19:30] <EriC^^> !cloak | grac3
[19:31] <grac3> ubottu: thank you
[19:31] <Anonum> the bot is a lie
[19:32] <HuHa> HSD_: ok, the root filesystem from your machine is still mounted - that's the /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root  line
[19:32] <HuHa> HSD_: did you have your home directory on a separate filesystem?
[19:32] <HuHa> HSD_: if you don't know, that's ok, we can check
[19:32] <Bray90820> Can someone help me here auto remove doesn't seem to find my old kernels
[19:32] <Bray90820> http://pastebin.com/raw/9AkqKizK
[19:33] <HSD_> HuHa: i dont know - i didnt do anything special when i set it up
[19:33] <HuHa> HSD_: ok, so let's check
[19:33] <HSD_> HuHa: ok
[19:33] <HuHa> HSD_: the trick now is that the old root filesystem is now mounted at /media/ubuntu/0276ec8f-5214-42a3-ab4d-bf814ef022ab
[19:33] <HuHa> HSD_: so we need to check etc/fstab there - so please pastebin the output of    cat /media/ubuntu/0276ec8f-5214-42a3-ab4d-bf814ef022ab/etc/fstab
[19:35] <HSD_> https://paste.ubuntu.com/23408272/
[19:35] <subuku> hi. I run in some serious trouble. I have a ubuntu 15.10 up and running. is there a secure way to make a distupgrade even if support period is over?
[19:35] <HSD_> HuHa: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23408272/
[19:35] <EriC^^> !eolupgrades | subuku
[19:36] <HuHa> HSD_: ok, so it's no separate filesystem, it's also on /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root
[19:36] <subuku> ubottu: I know. thats why I ask if there might be a way anyway
[19:36] <HuHa> HSD_: let's try the shell to access your home directory from here -     cd /media/ubuntu/0276ec8f-5214-42a3-ab4d-bf814ef022ab/home
[19:37] <HuHa> HSD_: you should now see at least a directory   "bob"
[19:37] <HuHa> (with   ls   , of course)
[19:37] <HSD_> HuHa: YES!
[19:38] <HuHa> HSD_: let's try to copy it - your external HD is mounted at  /media/ubuntu/My Passport
[19:38] <HSD_> HuHa: bash: cd: bob: Permission denied
[19:38] <HuHa> HSD_:   sudo bash     then   cd bob
[19:39] <HuHa> HSD_: i.e. we are opening a new shell, but with root (administrator) permissions - we are The Big Boss [tm]
[19:39] <HuHa> HSD_: try not to do anything stupid now ;-)
[19:39] <HSD_> HuHa: i'm such a noob - it worked!
[19:40] <HuHa> HSD_: well, that's the Linux/Unix security model ;-)
[19:40] <narnian> hi
[19:40] <HSD_> HuHa: i will follow step by step!  i promise
[19:40] <HuHa> HSD_: now go back up one directory so you see "bob" again with "ls"
[19:40] <subuku> what do I have to expect if I now perform a dist upgrade on 15.10 ?
[19:40] <HuHa> HSD_: cd ..
[19:40] <HSD_> done
[19:40] <HSD_> HuHa: done
[19:40] <HuHa> HSD_: now let's try to copy stuff
[19:41] <Bashing-om> HuHa: HSD_ A permission issue on the /home directoty why not able to access normally ??
[19:41] <HuHa> HSD_: this command is for Real Men ;-)       rsync -n -rtv  bob /media/ubuntu/My\ Passport
[19:42] <HuHa> Bashing-om: No clue why - you should be UID 1000 when booting from a stick
[19:42] <HuHa> HSD_: notice that this command is only a "dry run" to check if it complains - you should see a gazillion files scroll by
[19:42] <Bashing-om> HuHa: true . hummm ..
[19:42] <narnian> helloooo
[19:43] <HuHa> HSD_: what this command does: It copies recursively (-r) with timestamps (-t) and verbosely (-v) everything from bob to your external HD - we need to protect the blank in the filename with a backslash
[19:44] <Anonum> hhh
[19:44] <narnian> deep web
[19:44] <HSD_> HuHa: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23408299/
[19:44] <HuHa> HSD_: notice that since your target disk has a FAT style filesystem, it cannot copy all Linux file attributes, so we can't use   rsync -av   here
[19:44] <narnian> how an i enter deep web?
[19:44] <ioria> encrypted
[19:44] <Guest6906969> narnian, tor ?
[19:44] <HSD_> HuHa: here it the out put
[19:44] <HSD_> HuHa: here is the out put
[19:44] <HuHa> HSD_: that was all?
[19:45] <HSD_> that's it
[19:45] <ioria> his home is encrypted
[19:45] <HuHa> ok, looks like your home directory _is_ encrypted after all - that's a stub home directory to show you when the real thing is not mounted :-(
[19:45] <HuHa> any clue, anybody, how to mount an encrypted home dir manually?
[19:46] <narnian> i'm learning that stuff
[19:46] <ioria> almost two ways... both terrible
[19:46] <Anonum> !help
[19:47] <Anonum> Gotta love that bot
[19:47] <Anonum> ubottu: I love you
[19:47] <HSD_> HuHa: yes
[19:47] <HuHa> HSD_: did you try to boot an older kernel when the new one wouldn't boot? you should have at least one older one in the boot menu
[19:47] <Anonum> !commands
[19:47] <HSD_> HuHa: i had 3 or 4 options
[19:48] <HuHa> HSD_: and none of them would boot?
[19:48] <HSD_> HuHa: i tried 2
[19:48] <HSD_> HuHa: i can try again
[19:49] <HuHa> HSD_: IMHO this would be the easiest solution... but give me some minutes to check something
[19:49] <HSD_> HuHa: i can go back and try the other two - sure - take what you need
[19:50] <HSD_> HuHa: this started when the laptop auto rebooted during update for 16.04 it was origanally 14.04
[19:50] <HuHa> HSD_: the system probably asked you for the pass phrase for your home directory each time you logged in - right?
[19:50] <HSD_> HuHa: no
[19:50] <HSD_> hu
[19:51] <HSD_> HuHa: yes
[19:51] <HSD_> HuHa: sorry - typed too fast
[19:51] <HuHa> HSD_: ok, so you remember that pass phrase, I hope... because if not, say goodbye to your home dir... ;-)
[19:51] <HSD_> HuHa: im good there!
[19:52] <HuHa> HSD_: try this first: http://www.howtogeek.com/116297/how-to-recover-an-encrypted-home-directory-on-ubuntu/
[19:52] <HuHa> that's step-by-step instructions to do exactly what you have in mind
[19:52] <HSD_> HuHa: - HUGE THANK YOU to you and Eric^^!
[19:53] <HuHa> HSD_: hold it, we're not there yet ;-)
[19:53] <HSD_> HuHa: lol - almost left
[19:54] <HuHa> HSD_: and rembember: Linux takes this security stuff seriously - that encryption stuff is _meant_ to make life hard on people who don't have the proper pass phrases ;-)
[19:55] <HSD_> HuHa: i have the passphrase - no worries
[19:55] <HuHa> ok, so follow the instructions and hope it will work out ;-)
[19:55] <andreborda> hello, I just finished clonign a drive with ddrescue. Is there a good tool for file recovery?
[19:56] <HuHa> you might want to pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster or some other deity of your choice now ;-)
[19:56] <Bashing-om> !testdisk
[19:56] <gebruiker> deadline vs cfq, any opinions which one performs better for desktop systems with HDD drives?
[19:56] <HSD_> HuHa: lol!
[19:56] <andreborda> Bashing-om: was testdisk for me? I have run it but not sure what to do with the results
[19:57] <phil42> never used deadline, satisfied with cfq
[19:57] <Ben64> andreborda: depends what you want to do exactly
[19:57] <HuHa> but the reason I came here for... any clue, anybody, how to contact NHellFire / Nathan Rennie-Waldock ?
[19:57] <Bashing-om> andreborda: Well was to be directed back to you .. hang on a bit and I get ya the tutorials .
[19:58] <HuHa> he maintains the PPA for my QDirStat, and I'd like to tell him that a new release is out, but I don't have an e-mail address
[19:58] <andreborda> Ben64: I want to recover as much as possible, accidentaly formated my safe drive, so pic, videos and .doc's and other simmilar files
[19:58] <HuHa> https://github.com/shundhammer/qdirstat/releases/tag/1.1  named Pumpkin for obvious reasons ;-)
[19:58] <HuHa> andreborda: formatted with what tool? and what filesystem?
[19:59] <Ben64> andreborda: you might be able to get the whole filesystem back with testdisk, if not, there's photorec that goes through and finds files, but it's messy and you lose file names
[19:59] <Bashing-om> andreborda: keep in mind Ben64's query . There is : http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step ; http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/15761/recover-data-like-a-forensics-expert-using-an-ubuntu-live-cd/ <- written in a user-friendly way and introduces you to testdisk in a gentle way ; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2112112 .
[20:00] <andreborda> HuHa: http://imgur.com/a/JMrUI formatted with windows 10 USB boot disk creation tool
[20:01] <Ben64> you put data on it?
[20:01] <HuHa> andreborda: then you might just be lucky - it says FAT32, so probably only the FAT is destroyed
[20:01] <andreborda> Bashing-om: AaronMT: thanks, I'll look into those now. yesterday someone asked me to run testdisk, but warned that I shouldn't use it by my noobself because it is very powerful
[20:02] <andreborda> Ben64: Only the data the tool created
[20:02] <AaronMT> Please don't ping me.
[20:02] <Bashing-om> andreborda: Just exercise thought and care . Not so difficult .
[20:03] <andreborda> oops, pinged the wrong guy :D meant to be Ben64:
[20:03] <andreborda> ok so should I try the testdisk tool on the clone that I just created?
[20:04] <HuHa> andreborda: yes
[20:04] <andreborda> I'll look into it anyway, but just wondering if I can disconnect the original drive just to be careful
[20:04] <andreborda> HuHa: ok thanks
[20:04] <dryllows> exit
[20:06] <HuHa> andreborda: and BTW you just learned the hard way that Thou Shalt Make Backups Of The Things You Invested Work In - like your photos etc. ;-)
[20:06] <Guest6906969> a backup isnt a backup until a recovery test is complete
[20:06] <HuHa> rsync is your friend
[20:06] <andreborda> HuHa:  aha yeah! I had to buy a 3TB drive for the clone, will now set it up as a NAS
[20:06] <HuHa> that's the nice thing about rsync - it's plain files, not a nightmarish format ;-)

[20:21] <mikeymop> hey guys, Kubuntu question
[20:22] <mikeymop> I stopped display-manager.service and cannot ssh in, is this required for sshd
[20:22] <mikeymop> becuase i know kde wont let you run sshd unless you log in
[20:22] <guzzlefry> ZombikkuAmerica: No sound until I kill/restart pulseaudio for instance. The XFCE4 mixer app just hangs at "Establishing connection to PulseAudio. Please wait..."
[20:23] <HuHa> mikeymop: sshd is on a much lower level than the display manager, so no, you don't need a DM for sshd
[20:23] <mikeymop> HuHa: well Kubu 16.04 is systemd, so it's a .service instead
[20:24] <mikeymop> I expected the same thing but I can't just reboot and reconnect which is annoying, i have to go to the computer and sign in
[20:24] <HuHa> mikeymop: still, sshd is a network service, the display manager is X11 related
[20:24] <mikeymop> do you know of a way to get sshd to execute without me loggin in
[20:24] <HuHa> mikeymop: please explain this "kde wont let you run sshd unless you log in"
[20:24] <mikeymop> HuHa: try it, sshd.service will not run until you pass the lock screen
[20:25] <mikeymop> i found an issue reported and everything
[20:25] <HuHa> huh?!
[20:25] <HuHa> I find that hard to believe...
[20:26] <HuHa> it might be a weird coincidence, but whywould sshd need the display manager?
[20:26] <mikeymop> oh, thats why
[20:26] <mikeymop> yea, i stop display-manager and it signs me out so i cant reconect
[20:26] <mikeymop> HuHa: it's a kde quirk
[20:26] <HuHa> that would be a hard bug in the base system IMHO
[20:26] <tgm4883> I'm doubtful
[20:27] <mikeymop> https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1421753
[20:27] <HuHa> mikeymop: eh... is it possible your home directory is encrypted?
[20:27] <mikeymop> it isn't
[20:27] <HuHa> mikeymop: and you don't have access to your ~/.ssh dir unless you are logged in?
[20:28] <mikeymop> exactly
[20:28] <mikeymop> network-manager can be a headache, made nat'ing my VMs a pain
[20:29] <HuHa> mikeymop: well, in that forum thread they discuss Network Manager vs. traditional network setup - that _might_ be an explanation
[20:29] <mikeymop> which would tie the behavior to stopping display-manager
[20:29] <HuHa> so unless it's a laptop, you might be better off with a traditional network setup without NM
[20:29] <mikeymop> so stupid
[20:29] <mikeymop> that's gonna be a weekend project T.T thanks
[20:30] <HuHa> mikeymop: http://askubuntu.com/questions/431682/how-do-i-use-etc-network-interfaces-instead-of-network-manager
[20:31] <mikeymop> think this will boot me off if i did it over ssh?
[20:31] <HuHa> mikeymop: fiddling with the network over ssh always has a risk of disconnecting yourself for good until you have physical access to the machine
[20:32] <mikeymop> dang it
[20:32] <mikeymop> alright, thanks for the help man

[20:42] <HuHa> If you manually manage your network card in /etc/network/interfaces , network manger will not manage it , it will state "Not Managed"
[20:42] <HuHa> ah, sorry,
[20:44] <jujubee_> mabus and ioria I dropped my connection there and did not see your response
[20:45] <jujubee_> Wonder why it says I just quit?
[20:45] <jujubee_> Ah, I see the _ now at end of nic
[20:46] <ioria> jujubee_, try   auto enp1s0    (before iface enp1s0 inet static)
[20:46] <jujubee_> mabus: can I use network manager for my situation?  back in the day I remember only being able to manage a single interface so I used etc/network/interfaces to do it
[20:47] <mabus> jujubee_: if you're having trouble and no reason not to use network manager, it's easier.
[20:47] <ioria> jujubee_,  iirc, an interfaces file overrides NM
[20:47] <jujubee_> mabus: so in the config for lan interface, what do I set gateway to ?  my ISP?
[20:48] <jujubee_> ioria: why auto before static?  seems contrary...
[20:48] <ioria> jujubee_,  auto ups your enp1s0
[20:49] <jujubee_> ioria: ok.  Only problem is I am on the box I am trying to set up, so I will have to restart and that will drop my connection here.
[20:50] <ioria> jujubee_,  wait for some other solutions then ...
[20:50] <jujubee_> ioria: should I also auto my enp3s0 (my internet side)?
[20:51] <ioria> jujubee_,  if you want it... otherwise you need to up it later
[20:51] <jujubee_> I need it.  I am using iptables to forward between inside and outside
[20:51] <ioria> jujubee_,  sudo ifconfig ... up
[20:52] <jujubee_> ioria: ok, I will make changes and restart  bee back soon I hope
[20:55] <ZombikkuAmerica> ioria: Not ifconfig, net-tools is deprecated
[20:55] <ZombikkuAmerica> use [ sudo ip link set ... up ] instead
[20:55] <ioria> ZombikkuAmerica, right, ip link ...
[20:55] <ioria> ZombikkuAmerica, but it should work
[20:56] <NotSo> #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:00] <jujubee> ioria: seems to have worked
[21:00] <ioria> jujubee, as ZombikkuAmerica said if you need to set manually use    ip link set not infconfig
[21:01] <ioria> jujubee, are you on 16.04 ?
[21:01] <jujubee> ioria: yes 16.04.1
[21:01] <jujubee> ioria: I prefer to use /etc/network/interfaces to set them on boot
[21:01] <ioria> jujubee, ok ifconfig (you don't need it now) it's a bit deprecated
[21:02] <ioria> jujubee, yeah
[21:02] <jujubee> it is working now
[21:02] <ioria> jujubee, good job
[21:02] <jujubee> thank you
[21:02] <ioria> jujubee, happy hallow
[21:03] <jujubee> Yes yes.... waiting for all the little kiddies to start knocking for candy...
[21:03] <ioria> jujubee, 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
[21:03] <jujubee> nice
[21:07] <isometric05> so.. another question. Was Ubuntu 14.04.5 updated to "force a raid sync before completing the install"?
[21:08] <isometric05> Our installation now takes 200+ minutes while waiting on the md raid to rebuild :-(
[21:16] <dirtyhunter> hey everyone!)
[21:18] <gebruiker> hi dirtyhunter
[21:23] <hhee> guys, video dont play in ubuntu. only sound. i've installed smplayer, vlc. what i did wrong? which packages i need to install?
[21:25] <Ted_> I was wondering if someone could help me with setting permissions on multiple directories using chmod.  I need to set the directories to 644 but not effect the files within the direcotires?
[21:26] <nacc> Ted_: setting the permissions on a directory doesn't affect the files within it, unless you used -R
[21:26] <akik> Ted_: you need to set the x-bit on a directory to be able to cd there
[21:26] <nacc> Ted_: please pastebin `ls -ahl` output before and after your chmod and indicate what the issue is
[21:27] <tomreyn> combine 'chmod' with 'find' if you want to do it recursively for directories only
[21:28] <Ted_> Can you give me an example I am new linux
[21:29] <nacc> `chmod 644 /path/to/dir1 /path/to/dir2`
[21:29] <nacc> Ted_: --^
[21:29] <nacc> Ted_: without more details, feels like we're doing your homework :)
[21:29] <Ted_> Thank you.
[21:35] <akik> i don't get it. putting 644 permissions on a directory? that doesn't fly
[21:36] <akik> maybe he'll get a f on his test
[21:37] <mescon> hey... i have 2 mountpoints that i merged with unionfs like so: unionfs-fuse -o cow,allow_other /mnt/nas/media=RW:/mnt/acd=RO /mnt/media - that's all fine and dandy, but when i remove a file from /mnt/nas/media and i start playing it from /mnt/media (which would then get it from /mnt/acd) the file is replicated and essentially downloaded to my nas again where it sits... anyone know how to solve that?
[21:37] <nacc> akik: agreed, strange question
[21:47] <krokket> Hi. I just apt-get upgrade-d my 14.04.5 system and while 'Setting up sudo (1.8.9p5-1ubuntu1.3)' it wanted to modify my sudoers file, adding /snap/bin to the secure_path. Is this a bug? I don't have anything snap-related installed.
[21:47] <CountryfiedLinux> Hey Kdenlive isn't opening.
[21:48] <CountryfiedLinux> http://pastebin.com/BMYiusYg
[21:48] <nacc> krokket: aiui, this is probably snap support getting backported to trusty
[21:48] <nacc> krokket: not a bug, and expected i'm guessing
[21:49] <nacc> krokket: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/s/sudo/sudo_1.8.9p5-1ubuntu1.3/changelog
[21:49] <nacc> refers to LP: #1595558
[21:50] <pedrocr> I was all happy that modesetting was the solution for flickering on intel but it gets horrible tearing in video instead
[21:50] <pedrocr> back to the intel driver now with sna, all seems well so far
[21:52] <krokket> Thanks nacc, it looked a bit suspicious to me at first. I decided to keep my old sudoers file for now, which should be ok unless I need sudo with snap, I hope.
[21:53] <nacc> krokket: i believe what will happen (if you read the bug) is if some syadmin tool was snapped and installed, ti would not be executable under sudo
[21:53] <nacc> krokket: on its own, it doesn't really do much
[21:54] <Jsync> Hm.
[21:56] <krokket> nacc: Yes. It's just weird (to me) that sudo changes something for a package that is not installed.
[21:57] <nacc> krokket: meh, there are bigger things to be worried about :)
[21:58] <krokket> certainly :) thanks again!
[22:01] <lucas-arg> any one here solve the tearing problem??? using nvidia intel drivers no matter what i use i have tearing
[22:02] <gebruiker> zesty is the latest release right?
[22:03] <nacc> gebruiker: it's the current development release
[22:03] <gebruiker> nacc: oh is it newer than yakkety?
[22:04] <nacc> gebruiker: yes
[22:04] <nacc> gebruiker: and not yet released
[22:06] <sabato> hi
[22:06] <gebruiker> nacc: any eta? I am curious about what kernel version yakkety uses and zesty?
[22:07] <nacc> !info linux
[22:07] <nacc> !info linux-image-generic
[22:07] <popey> gebruiker: zesty wont be out till april next year, it only just started development
[22:07] <nacc> gebruiker: ubuntu releases on a regular schedule, october and april of every year
[22:08] <nacc> gebruiker: fwiw, zesty is currentlyon the same kernel as y
[22:11] <gebruiker> nacc: seems 4.8 hmm any release that has 4.7?
[22:11] <ikonia> gebruiker: do you actually have a kernel problem ?
[22:11] <ikonia> I'm not quite sure why you are looking at kernel numbers in this way
[22:13] <kk4ewt> gebruiker,  and any older kernels could leave you vulnerable to the Dirty Cow big
[22:13] <kk4ewt> bug
[22:13] <gebruiker> never mind i already found my answer on packages.ubunut
[22:14] <ikonia> do you actually have a problem with the kernel ?
[22:14] <nacc> gebruiker: no, no ubuntu shipped with 4.7 afaik
[22:18] <PugaBear> I just started up my laptop, and it won't connect to wifi. The wifi menu has enable wifi' automatically unchecked, which isn't normal, after all reboots. `sudo service restart network-manager` doesn't help. I can connect on my phone and other laptops just fine. What's going on? :L
[22:18] <mehmet> is there any turkish ?
[22:18] <nacc> !tr | mehmet
[22:18] <GreyFaceNoSpace> hello
[22:19] <_0xbadc0de> hi there ppl
[22:19] <mehmet> how old r u
[22:21] <apb1963_> PugaBear, not sure...  What happens if you check the box?
[22:21] <GreyFaceNoSpace> i had ubuntu gnome 3 installed and decided to change my desktop enviroemtn to xfce. i installed the xfce desktop enviorement then removed all the ubuntu-gnome-desktop enviroment. my latop is now slow as fuck when i boot in to ubuntu and i still get the gnome booting screen, although i dont have the gnome desktop enviroment anymore. how can i first of all remove the gnome 3 booting screen and make booting faster ?
[22:21] <_0xbadc0de> can I install ubuntu server from a ubuntu box without any cd or usb flashdrive?
[22:22] <apb1963_> _0xbadc0de, You mean over the network?  Yes.
[22:22] <popey> _0xbadc0de: sure, you could dd over the top of the entire drive.
[22:24] <_0xbadc0de> so I just grab an iso extract it somewhere
[22:24] <Sutter_Cain> Is there a way to use sha1 signed Repositories in 16.04?
[22:24] <_0xbadc0de> extract it onto an external hd (yeah I can use these) and dd the contents onto sda?
[22:25] <popey> GreyFaceNoSpace: maybe look at using "systemd-analyze blame" to see what's eating time on boot up?
[22:25] <popey> _0xbadc0de: grub can boot an iso off the filesystem, yes.
[22:25] <GreyFaceNoSpace> popey: where do i use this command? in the terminal?
[22:25] <popey> yes
[22:25] <_0xbadc0de> it can?
[22:26] <popey> yeah
[22:26] <_0xbadc0de> grub is not a complete retard after all
[22:26] <popey> _0xbadc0de: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot
[22:26] <popey> IKR!
[22:26] <popey> that page is a bit overkill, might be better guides online, I haven't done it for a while, but know it is possible and works
[22:26] <_0xbadc0de> thought it had to boot stuff that is embedded on the drive it runs on alone
[22:30] <GreyFaceNoSpace> popey: http://pastebin.com/82fTZbJQ
[22:30] <GreyFaceNoSpace> popey: this is what i got when i ran systemd-analyze blame
[22:30] <popey> yeah, look at the top
[22:31] <popey> 36 seconds of network manager waiting for network connectivity?
[22:31] <popey> GreyFaceNoSpace: http://askubuntu.com/questions/615006/ubuntu-15-04-network-manager-causing-slow-boot maybe change the timeout as per that guide?
[22:35] <birarda> hoping somebody can help me with a udp packet checksum problem
[22:35] <birarda> AFAICT checksumming is offloaded to the NIC on our ec2 instance
[22:36] <birarda> I don’t have an option to disable the oflload (it says fixed) - I presume this would move the checksumming to the kernel
[22:36] <birarda> problem is, the NIC seems to not be doing its job and is letting packets with a bad checksum through
[22:37] <gustavo_> He everyone?
[22:38] <gustavo_> does anyone here speaks portuguese
[22:38] <gustavo_> ?
[22:39] <gustavo_> Hey
[22:39] <gustavo_> gasoline
[22:39] <gustavo_> kachau
[22:40] <gustavo_> are you all without keyboard
[22:40] <gustavo_> ??
[22:40] <nacc> !ask | gustavo_
[22:46] <GreyFaceNoSpace> popey: i tried the solution you gave me...and my booting is much faster now.
[22:47] <GreyFaceNoSpace> popey: any idea how i can remove the gnome 3 booting screen now?
[22:47] <freddish> is there any chance that ubuntu touch would work on my Samsung s6 ? anyone tried that before ?.
[22:54] <johnzorn> is there an easy way of creating a preseed.cfg file from an existing system for automated installs?
[22:59] <kholdstayre> in bash, how do i get the path that a global script sits at?
[23:01] <johnzorn> kholdstayre, which command
[23:01] <nacc> kholdstayre: `which` presuming you are trying to invoke a command
[23:02] <kholdstayre> ah cool, that worked, thx
[23:07] <shadaloo> hi there - when I plug my headphones in they are not being detected as a separate sound device
[23:07] <shadaloo> any ideas?
[23:07] <shadaloo> my headphones are playing together with my speakers
[23:07] <shadaloo> when I plug my headphones in I would like the speaker audio to be automatically muted/disabled
[23:07] <shadaloo> any ideas?
[23:10] <johnzorn> shadaloo, do you have auto-mute enabled in alsamixer?
[23:10] <shadaloo> johnzorn: no idea
[23:12] <shadaloo> johnzorn: how do I do that
[23:12] <shadaloo> lol
[23:12] <johnzorn> shadaloo, type alsamixer at a terminal
[23:12] <shadaloo> johnzorn: sure I know about alsamixer
[23:12] <shadaloo> but what is auto-mute
[23:12] <shadaloo> and how do I enable that
[23:12] <johnzorn> mine has an auto-mute mode that can be disabled
[23:13] <johnzorn> use the arrow keys
[23:13] <johnzorn> up/down for enable/disable
[23:13] <shadaloo> hrmm
[23:13] <shadaloo> it is enabled
[23:14] <johnzorn> is the card the right card up in the corner?
[23:14] <shadaloo> sure is
[23:14] <shadaloo> the thing is
[23:14] <shadaloo> my headphones are plugged in
[23:14] <shadaloo> and the system doesn't recognize them as being plugged in
[23:15] <johnzorn> they are usb?
[23:15] <johnzorn> or regular 45mm audio jack?
[23:15] <shadaloo> I can only get the headphones to work by selecting Headphones under pavucontrol --> Output Devices --> Built-in Audio Analog Stereo --> Port --> Headphones
[23:16] <shadaloo> 3.5mm audio
[23:16] <shadaloo> standard port
[23:17] <V7> Which one is better ... Code::Blocks or NetBeans ?
[23:17] <johnzorn> shadaloo, alsamixer idea was my only one sorry
[23:17] <shadaloo> johnzorn: no worries mate
[23:21] <drkjstr> V7, might be a better question for a programming channel. I haven't used code::blocks much. I've used Netbeans for C++ and Java.

[23:36] <IMP> question: is it ok to install 32bit and 64bit openjdk in parallel via apt-get?
[23:38] <nicomachus> IMP: yes
[23:39] <IMP> nicomachus: intellij hangs on a gradle task to build a java app ever since I did it
[23:44] <drkjstr> IMP, I found this link, http://askubuntu.com/questions/110852/can-i-install-a-32-bit-java-in-addition-to-a-64-bit-version , but don't have any first hand experience.
[23:48] <IMP> drkistr, I had seen that question and had no trouble installing even both versions via apt (the link suggests that's not possible). But when I set the jdk to use to the 32bit version I still get an exception from the code: "API supports only x86 architecture", hinting it was compiled with the 64bit version.
[23:53] <drkjstr> IMP, Check this link: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/783662/java-32-bit-vs-64-bit-compatibility . Seems the libraries matter.

[23:57] <OerHeks> apb1963_, i would use POL, https://www.playonlinux.com/en/app-143-Microsoft_Office_2000.html
[23:57] <backbox> I had a look on internet about that but it ask for too many things to download and all are from unknown sources
