[00:47] hola alguien ahi [00:47] alguien aqui [00:47] que me conteste [00:47] alguien que me hable [00:52] alguien aqui === Ghoulish is now known as johnc4510 [02:38] hello === gh0st is now known as Guest74287 [03:30] I have just joinedd the beutiful world of linux and I am very happy. Though I need some assistance. I have a dell laptop. All multimedia keys work except brightness multimedia keys. [03:30] I hope if anyone of you can help me. [04:44] Hello, I cannot copy anything to my USB anymore. The problem doesn't exist with another distribution so it is not related to my USB drives. [04:49] I'd like to do a backup of all my files but now I am cannot copy or move any of my files. Not sure what causes this problem and hope anyone could help out. [06:08] ren: what's the output of: sudo fdisk -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [06:12] http://termbin.com/im8w [06:14] ren: when you ran that command, did you have the usb stick inserted? [06:14] no, i try again with usb inserted [06:16] http://termbin.com/8xpe [06:17] OK, now what's the output of this? grep sdb /proc/mounts [06:18] it doesn't show here in hexchat.. [06:19] OK, now run this: udisksctl mount -b /dev/sdb1 [06:19] i cannot paste it [06:19] What was the output of that? [06:19] Error mounting /dev/sdb1: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Error.AlreadyMounted: Device /dev/sdb1 is already mounted at `/media/martin/D9DC-0B6B'. [06:20] OK, now run this: caja /media/martin/D9DC-0B6B [06:20] A window should appear with your stick contents [06:20] yes [06:21] So it doesn't appear that anything is wrong with your stick or its mounting [06:21] We didn't do anything at all, we just checked where it was mounted [06:21] mhm yeah [06:21] i see [06:21] i can tell you what i did the day before [06:21] maybe it helps to reconstruct what went wrong [06:22] https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/how-to-run-eset-nod32-for-linux-in-ubuntu-mate-16-04-or-16-10/9733 [06:23] I tried to install ESET and make the file executable by enabling it in the context menu properties [06:24] the installer appeared but it didn't proceed and another window appeared along with it and "recommended" to install something related to PyPar2 which I did (without knowing what it is) [06:24] that two things were missing on the system related to PyPar2 [06:25] so I installed that and it seems as a result of this, I cannot copy any files to USBs anymore [06:25] Can you copy files using that window that just opened? [06:27] no, it says: error while copying to "D9DC-0B6B". The destination is read-only. [06:27] this happens to all USB drives I insert [06:27] OK let's try this: [06:27] sudo umount /dev/sdb1 [06:27] and all of these work without problems in another distro [06:27] sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt [06:28] sudo touch /mnt/test [06:28] What's the output of these commands? [06:28] and sudo umount /dev/sdb1 [06:29] all of them produce no output at all, also no error messages [06:29] Then you just wrote a file called test to the usb stick [06:29] So it's not read only [06:30] oh i see, nice [06:30] in caja: if i go to properties > permissions [06:31] file access is set to: -- [06:31] for all groups, owner, group and others [06:31] That's because fat32 doesn't support permissions [06:31] and i cannot change it [06:31] It's a windows file system, not the linux one, ext4. [06:31] (actually, a dos file system) [06:32] but yesterday I was still able to copy files to this USB [06:33] in fact, none of my USB - even those formatted with other file systems, don't allow copying to it from caja [06:34] i just tried the same USB in another distro, and i can copy files onto it [06:34] because the permissions allow writing access [06:35] so it seems to me a problem with caja [06:35] not sure what I can do now [06:36] somehow the default settings of caja were overwritten by what I did yesterday [06:41] do you have any other idea what I could do to get the default caja settings back? [06:51] ren, if eset puts udev rules to change the mount permissions, then you need to uninstall eset [06:51] If you don't know how to do that, contact the eset company [06:51] To see the mount options, it's that "grep sdb /proc/mounts" command that I said in the beginning [06:52] You can compare that with e.g. another distro, or an ubuntu live cd [06:52] the problem is that eset is not even installed [06:53] It did get a chance to mess up your system, didn't it? [06:53] Try this: [06:53] i am not sure if it was eset, i rather think it is the stuff i installed later [06:53] the pypar2 thing [06:54] I can't imagine why a compression library would mess with mount options [06:57] I just checked some of my folders like documents, downloads, etc. (not on usb) [06:57] and properties shows that the permissions options are globally changed [06:57] no file access under owner, group, others [06:58] so it seems that it looks like the eset installation "hangs" [06:58] and keeps "allow executing file as program" active, thereby preventing any file access [06:58] You mean that you cannot write files to your desktop? [06:59] I can, but the context menus of properties strangely all show "--" for file access [07:01] and the "allow executing file as program" is active in all folders [07:02] All these are normal [07:02] Directories have the "x" bit set because it means "allow users to see their contents", it's not related to execution [07:03] ren, remove your usb stick, then insert it again, then type this: [07:04] cat /proc/mounts | nc termbin.com 9999 [07:05] http://termbin.com/mwju [07:05] wait [07:05] need to insert [07:06] http://termbin.com/vlyl [07:07] Could the USB drives have been added to fstab with ro somehow? [07:07] It doesn't say ro there [07:07] It only says errors=remount-ro [07:07] ren, now try this: touch /media/martin/0224-24F1/test [07:08] Does it show any error messages? [07:08] no error messages [07:08] OK, now run this: caja /media/martin/0224-24F1 [07:08] Do you see the stick contents AND a test file there? [07:09] error message pops up [07:09] could not find ... [07:09] Could not find what? caja? [07:10] could not find "/media/martin/0224-24F" [07:10] You didn't type the "1" [07:10] at the end [07:10] ah, ok [07:10] now caja opens up [07:11] And you see the usb stick contents, and do you see a test file there? [07:11] yes [07:11] OK, now right click there and create a file or folder [07:11] Do you have write access? [07:12] no, don't have any access [07:12] Double click on the test file [07:12] Does it open with pluma? Can you write text there and save it? [07:13] yes, opens up with pluma and also saves text [07:13] Then you do have write access... [07:13] Do you mind if I see what you're talking about, by sharing your screen with me? sudo apt-get install x11vnc; x11vnc -connect srv1-dide.ioa.sch.gr [07:13] i cannot drag and drop through caja anymore [07:14] ok [07:16] installing now [07:27] ren, I deleted your caja settings [07:27] Are things ok now? [07:27] Test and see [07:27] ok, wait a sec [07:28] thanks so much, it seems to be working now [07:28] what was the problem? [07:28] Caja saves its settings at ~/.config/caja [07:28] I renamed that folder to caja.bak, so that it was re-created cleanly [07:29] Since that fixed it, it appears you had some wrong caja settings somewhere [07:29] I don't know which; you can restore them and play with them if you want to find out, but it might take a lot of time to pinpoint the exact setting :) [07:29] I see [07:30] I never used X11vnc before [07:30] do I need to deactivate it somewhere? [07:30] or deinstall? [07:30] Nah, leave it, it doesn't hurt anything [07:30] Just press ctrl+c in the terminal for me to disconnect [07:31] There [07:31] Ctrl+C from the keyboard [07:31] Anyway I pressed it for you [07:31] I got disconnected now [07:32] It's not a service that runs on boot, you only manually run it when you want, so it doesn't hurt to have it installed [07:32] And it only takes a couple of mb [07:32] thanks a lot for your help [07:32] np [07:33] i need to learn more about this, have been using ubuntu mate for half a year now === sergio_ is now known as Guest80547 [11:33] I'm having some problems with mount that maybe you can help me with. I'm trying to mount a NTFS drive and it works but the options are all wrong. In /etc/fstab the line is /dev/sdb1 /media/extern ntfs-3g auto,rw,exec,nosuid,nodev,noatime,user_id=1000,group_id=1000,umask=000 0 0 but in cat /proc/self/mountinfo it mounts as /media/extern rw,nosuid,no [11:33] dev,noatime shared:30 - fuseblk /dev/sdb1 rw,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096. Does anyone know what I can do to get the options right? === mortalius__ is now known as mortalius [16:47] Hi everyone, do you know where can I get doc for building ubuntu mate for raspberry pi? [18:35] hi friends
