[00:00] Hi all i had some question about ubuntu someone can ask me pls ? [00:00] !info nvme-cli yakkety [00:01] nvme-cli (source: nvme-cli): userspace tooling to control NVMe drives. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8-2 (yakkety), package size 123 kB, installed size 271 kB [00:01] ooooh [00:02] so I can install that [00:04] nice Dell article about nvme http://www.dell.com/support/article/nl/nl/nlbsdt1/SLN299303/en === nya is now known as Guest49174 [00:07] well it hasn't crashed yet ;) ;) [00:08] I really messed something up on an OSX HFS+ partition. Essentially dumped the partition tables. I am not that well versed in parted. I ran testdisk and have been able to locate the partition table after DD to and image and then to another disk. is there anyone who can look at this http://pastebin.com/mTQ4Yiwa and give me a hand with the right way to put the partition table back on this thing? I screwed up 3 times and the DD from image [00:09] (also sorry for wall of text, wanted to get everything pertinant in a single post) [00:09] your message cuts off at " I screwed up 3 times and the DD from imag" [00:10] I screwed up 3 times and the DD from image to disk takes about 33 hours to complete [00:10] So I could really use a hand because I am quite obviously lacking the neccesary skill to do this [00:11] do what Synnn? [00:11] what exactly did you do to break it [00:11] Moved the partition table to the end of the disk [00:11] is there any utility that shows the particular disk i/o activity volume per device? === c-kel is now known as sydfx [00:12] cncr04s: atop? [00:12] iotop [00:13] frankly iotop sucks though and it is not per-device [00:14] Ahh, sorry I'm newish and yeah it does suck. [00:15] 2 down vote accepted Do as the gdisk prompt suggests: Use the e option on the experts' (x) menu to relocate the data structures to the end of the disk. You can accomplish the same thing in parted or GParted if you prefer. IIRC, they do it semi-automatically, although they ask for confirmation. [00:15] I did that Ben64 [00:31] kinda interesting that lshw shows a mismatch between what it detects and what the mobo manual says they should be [00:32] and the manual was written for what version of bios vs what is installed [00:33] Hi, does anyone use Visual Studio Code on Ubuntu? [00:33] I did apt update and then upgrade, now I have an app that is version 1.8-5 (tmux) is it possible to get an even higher version of this program through apt-get ? [00:33] If so, wondering how I can configure GitHub integration. [00:35] can anyone help me [00:36] yoo [00:37] how do I join another room?

[01:17] concernant grep [01:17] Hi legoeland, english only please [01:18] okay [01:18] can you help me about grep command ? [01:19] legoeland, sure, i can try, but just ask the channel generally with your details / pastebin [01:20] i m not sure i understood [01:20] can i give you my problem ? [01:20] here [01:20] i think its simple [01:22] legoeland, we are waiting on you to state the problem [01:23] is it possible that grep -vf file1 file2 blocked with processus stoped or quit without result or gives false result ? when file1 contains 7000 lines and file2 contains 30000 lines ? Please is it normal ? === Enzo is now known as Guest87465 [01:26] man grep: -v, --invert-match Invert the sense of matching, to select non-matching lines. ( intresting [01:27] looks like it greps nothing? [01:27] yes i know and that's what i really want to do [01:28] logically then the answer would be yes. not sure why you want this check, but it seems legit. [01:29] sorry i wanted to answer : yes it looks like it greps nothing [01:30] i want all in file2 that is not in file1 [01:30] and i doesnt work [01:30] it doesn't work [01:32] legoeland: if I understand what you're trying to do, then grep is not the right tool for that [01:33] ok, and witch one please ? [01:34] I don't know that there is a standard gnu utility for that. I would write a simple ruby script myself. put all the lines of file2 in a hash and subtract out each line of file1 [01:37] and what is the grep -v command if it is not what we are talking about ? [01:38] grep -v inverts your search [01:38] it lists lines that dont match your patterns [01:38] try man grep [01:39] it sort of does that except that your pattern has to be "any of the lines in file1". you can form such a pattern by regexp quoting each line and concatenating then with "|" sandwitched in, but doing that is harder than what I suggested before [01:39] yes i read it of course but i am french lol sorry [01:40] if i write grep -vf file1 file2 what am i suppose to do [01:40] ? [01:40] http://man.cx/grep(1)/fr [01:41] #mit [01:41] legoeland: you need a pattern always with grep. giving a filename as a pattern doesn't do what you think it does [01:41] ok i forget to say you something === ninjasquirrelmas is now known as _person [01:41] file1 is a list of patterns [01:41] and file2 too [01:43] file1 and file2 are two list of emails [01:50] hello all. I have a legacy machine still running 8.04. Yes yes.. I know - but upgrading for this one isn't an option. In any case, the last command doesn't seem to support the -F command. Anyone know if there is a way to find the exact time of your own login.. down to the second (epoch time preferably) [01:53] hi [01:53] hello [01:54] I woke up just now. [01:54] thin for support get a supported version [01:54] chatter in #ubuntu-offtopic taofeng [01:55] bazhang - Depricated integrated hardware - upgrading isn't an option unfortunatly for this machine (I've tried :( ) [01:57] thin then you can try some other location for support [01:57] fair enough - any recommendations? [01:57] askubuntu.com [02:06] lol [02:18] does anyone know how I can manage what keys my keyboard is matching to? For some reason it seems to have fucked up and swapped @ with " and | with ~ o.O [02:18] Is it possible that installing jackd1, made me lose my default sound configuration? It seems that when I don't have jack enabled, pulseaudio is not present.

When I plug my NUC with Ubuntu into my 4K tv through HDMI, I just get a black screen. When I use the DisplayPort connection, it works fine. [03:19] I read an article suggesting this is an HDMI handshake issue. I didn't have this issue on XUbuntu 14 with the same hardware. Is there a known, standard fix for this type of issue? [03:41] Hi, I was trying to block an IP using iptables which belongs to one of my VM [03:41] but unable to do so, I did the research on google in order to find where I am going wrong [03:41] but no help so far [03:42] this is how the rule looks like :http://pastebin.com/nJLykSjY [03:42] any help [03:47] can I set an entry in an efi grub to a grub-pc that is installed on an other partition ? [03:47] hidey * [03:48] niteshnarayanlal, I am just starting to work with iptables, but I wouldn't specify a protocol or a destination [03:50] niteshnarayanlal, something like 'iptables -A INPUT -s 10.x.x.x -i wlan0 -j DROP' [03:50] th0r, protocol because IJust want to block the ICMP requests and I haven't specified any destination [03:51] sudo iptables -A INPUT -p icmp -s 10.0.2.15 -j DROP [03:51] this is what I have used [03:53] niteshnarayanlal, that looks good...if it doesn't work I would try tacking /32 onto the ip, but I don't think that is really necessary.

[04:59] yes koji is the builder [04:59] not nessassarly from source [05:00] oops~ [05:00] koji builds the packages then uses those packages to build the isos [05:00] why do the isos need to be compiled from source ? [05:01] thanks [05:01] maybe wrong express of my mind [05:01] i still think there is some tool to create iso using some material [05:01] yes [05:02] like its easy to build updated live isos [05:03] livecd-tools and the fedora-kickstarts packages [05:04] are these (koji/livecd-tools/fedora-kickstarts) are ubuntu packages? [05:05] no [05:06] so, the official ISOs are created from an working RPM-system? [05:06] for ubuntu go talk to them about their buildserver [05:06] yes [05:06] koji.fedoraproject.org [05:07] any links/wiki to explain how official ISOs are created? [05:07] i mean the general process [05:08] no idea (i am sure its in google somewhere [05:08] buildiso, remember fedora existed before ubuntu [05:09] does debian using the same way to build ISOs like ubuntu? [05:09] no idea ask those 2 [05:10] opps sorry i am in too many channels [05:10] you really resourceful [05:10] i thought i was in the #fedora when i was asking your questions [05:10] answering your questions [05:11] i was giving you the fedora answers [05:11] hmm...

[05:16] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ [05:17] buildiso i use rufus and flash usb [05:17] to creat iso install [05:17] Dreaman, i think they are wanting to build from scratch [05:17] yes [05:18] this is not good idea [05:18] ok [05:18] :) [05:18] just want to know how ISO are created [05:18] Dreaman, why is this not a good idea [05:18] as an archive, saved as an ISO file [05:19] @kk4ewt do you know the ubuntu ISO build process? [05:19] no [05:19] jist download an burn iso on disk or flash usb boot [05:20] Dreaman, he wants the steps that actually creates the iso [05:20] ok [05:20] any one know those steps?

How do I disable freespin on my Logitech MX Master? Right now if spin it fast it goes to freespin mode and I'd like it to stay in "click" mode. Using Ubuntu 16.04LTS [07:17] SouLShocK: it's very likely you need to do that with the windows software if the mouse is programmable. [07:24] ducasse: tried that just now, works in windows, but when I boot up Ubuntu it goes back to "SmartShift" mode as Logitech calls it [07:26] SouLShocK: ok, so it's not stored in the mouse. all i can tell you is that in recent years logitech have started making mice that only really work with windows, i've got one that sends keyboard events instead of button presses. [07:27] how nice of Logitech to embrace Windows (only) support [07:27] hi === root____8 is now known as taofeng [07:29] SouLShocK: i know there is some logitech support software for linux, you might want to look around and do a search on your model - maybe someone has figured out a fix.

[08:16] hi [08:17] can i use ubuntu 16.04.1 daily updated iso?from here http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xenial/daily-live/20161105/ [08:17] try and find out [08:18] ?? [08:18] mkili, of course you can. [08:19] hi [08:20] The universe packages, translation-en, and DEP-11 metadata and its icons seem to be a bit large in size [08:20] translation packages are always large in size. [08:20] i heared,its not possible disable an uncheck developer option in daily iso ! [08:21] mkili, Daily builds (development branch) disable the checkbox of Developer, because these versions are the Developer mode [08:22] I suppose there is not set date for 16.4.2 [08:22] I upgraded to 16.04 from 15.10 and I have the strangest bug I've ever come across - when the base of my laptop is flat, the keyboard is disabled, but when the back is held up, the keyboard is enabled. It's not a hardware issue, as it works on the login screen and when waking from suspend. I'm at a loss here [08:23] so where can i download normal 16.04.1 updated iso? [08:23] mkili, from the official website? [08:23] mkili: [08:23] mkili: https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop [08:23] mkili, Go to Downloads and then scroll down until you see 16.04.1, then download it [08:23] rocketeer99, thats really weird [08:24] i know...i mean 16.04.1 iso with all updates until now. [08:24] mkili: there is none, download updates while installing [08:24] mkili, i doubt you can do that [08:24] yeah [08:25] rocketeer99, still sounds like a hardware issue to me. [08:25] is there any reason why I should update to 16.10 from 16.04 LTS? [08:25] ElvenDude: It's a lenovo yoga S1 - perhaps the update enabled some sort of tablet mode and disables it? [08:25] still, it's an odd one. [08:25] FManTropyx, not really. [08:25] theyesman: It also works perfectly when I'm booted to windows, and xinput list returns it with id 12 in both positions [08:25] FManTropyx: there are probably more reasons to stay on an lts release [08:25] support remains much longer with the lts release. [08:26] rocketeer99, definitely sounds like a issue where something is altered by physical movement. [08:27] like accelerometer being affected. [08:27] rocketeer99, i think it has something to do with your laptops tablet mode [08:27] rocketeer99, maybe theres an option in the settings? [08:27] mine isnt a tablet version so im not sure [08:28] Hey, I upgraded to 16.10 and I am not getting any kernel updates?? Any idea as to why this is happening [08:28] FManTropyx: keep in mind that if you do upgrade, you will have to keep doing that every six months or so. [08:28] ElvenDude: I don't know of a tablet mode in ubuntu, but it has an accelerometer. Prior to 16.04, there was simply no support for the tablet form at all [08:28] ub_ubuntu: what is the latest kernel you've got? [08:28] I haven't heard of someone adding such a mode [08:29] rocketeer99, i'd put money on the accelerometer causing it. [08:29] join #android [08:29] ducasse: I have 4.8.0-22-generic [08:29] rocketeer99, as to how to fix, i really have no idea where to start with that! [08:29] rocketeer99, but there must be some settings somewhere right? [08:29] I checked regular keyboard settings [08:29] rocketeer99, do you have the wacom tablet option? [08:30] rocketeer99, maybe you could try something there [08:30] rocketeer99, ElvenDude what desktop environment are you running? [08:30] ub_ubuntu: make sure linux-image-generic is installed [08:30] theyesman, im running unity and have modified it to look like mac [08:30] theyesman: Stock unity7, and yes I have wacom settings [08:30] with paper theme [08:30] theyesman, macbuntu [08:30] ElvenDude, sorry, my q directed at rocketeer99 [08:31] apology. [08:31] ducasse: Thanks I am on it [08:31] theyesman, ahaha thats alright [08:31] ElvenDude: the macbuntu thing is wellknown for breaking things [08:31] ducasse, so far its working very well [08:31] Also the 4.8 kernel I have seems to spawn a lot of processes together. At one point the top command shows more than 1200 processes runnning [08:31] Wacom tablet settings doesn't seem to have anything related to keyboards [08:31] ive also put the bing wallpaper changing script [08:32] rocketeer99, okay i thought maybe you could try something there [08:34] What's very interesting to me is that xinput query-state 12 returns key[###]=up in both positions [08:38] is there an alternate command I could use to determine what's killing the keyboard? [08:38] rocketeer99: have you looked at the logs? [08:39] ducasse: I haven't looked at them yet - which would you recommend I start with? [08:39] rocketeer99: dmesg [08:40] rocketeer99: 'dmesg -w' follows it like tail -f [08:40] ducasse: That was very helpful, ty [08:41] seems to be an acpi issue: http://pastebin.com/96kB438R [08:42] i want to buy some more memory for my machine but how do I find out what memory tye I have to buy? [08:42] rocketeer99: interesting. consider filing a bug.

[09:04] I noticed it said something about thermal event, and it was running a bit hot. This has also been a sporadic bug, but killing everything and letting it cool has resolved the keyboard dying issue [09:04] without rebuild entire source kernel [09:06] That's completely unreasonable. If the cpu is above a certain temperature, then, and the laptop is not at an angle, the keyboard (and nothing else) is disabled. I have to feel bad for anyone trying to debug this [09:06] yes [09:07] Actually super funny though [09:08] Also because I do not know how to do them [09:15] hello [09:16] cool [09:18] Hey, I upgraded a package, some things are not working correctly now and I suspect it's because of the upgrade.

[12:49] join #warzone2100-lobby [12:49] :/ [12:50] sry wrong cmd [12:50] taofeng : there should be a web cp for vsftp [12:50] donttrustem: well yea, linode :) but, as I said, see if yo can simply ignore that error, as that askubuntu post suggested, because even though it's not openvz, the external kernel makes for the same kind of a situation [12:51] blackflow:but the upgrade terminates [12:52] good morning [12:52] Thank you [12:52] donttrustem: well, then you're in a pickle. see if you can install a regular kernel in your current installation and boot with pvgrub [12:52] I'm going to get it [12:52] donttrustem: with that done, then you can upgrade regularly with a local kernel [12:52] how can I find help getting midi so sound right on my computer? basically the sound ends exactly when the key is released [12:52] donttrustem: but eh... that old systems, I'd suggest just reinstall [12:52] midi notes, I mean [12:52] JFlash: try #ubuntu-studio [12:53] obviously that's not idea [12:53] ideal* [12:53] thanks ducasse [12:53] blackflow: I think that is my best option [12:53] anyone know how to remove file /var/lib/dpkg/lock ? [12:53] yw taofeng [12:53] donttrustem: while at it, consider going pvgrub from the start [12:53] I always hated linode doing external kernels. [12:54] blackflow: the problem is it is a mail server and I need to migrate it to 16.04 but I cannot unless I upgrade to 12.04 first :S [12:54] ducasse, ubuntu-studio is invite only [12:55] JFlash: no, but you might need to !register [12:55] I am a registered user [12:55] hey, for some reason, "do-release-upgrade -d" on ubuntu 16.04 isn't allowing me to upgrade to 16.10 because "No new release found" [12:55] !register [12:55] Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode [12:56] anyone know how to remove file /var/lib/dpkg/lock ? i searched google but useless . [12:56] donttrustem: which means you can survive a certain small downtime for reinstallation. script it in advance, use a proper external backup for data (another linode, hourly), and the upgrade should be limited to a few minutes of downtime + time to pull data in from backups. [12:56] JFlash: try #ubuntustudio instead, i had no problems joining [12:56] donttrustem: I say that instead of install 16.04 elsewhere and move data, because of IPs. I guess you built an IP reputation and changing it would be adverse to outgoing mail [12:57] blackflow: I can take the server down …. I am working on a clone but I have no idea how to doe waht you are saying [12:59] donttrustem: which part? [12:59] blackflow: pvgrub and the kernel … so all of that bit ;( [13:00] donttrustem: okay so linode is KVM virtualization, right? It used to be XEN, so if your node is that old, might be xen too. With XEN, linode used host-side kernels, meaning the VMs did not run their own. [13:01] yeah KVM [13:01] donttrustem: but since you say your kernel is 4.8-something-linode, that means it's still a host side kernel [13:01] now, there's something called pvgrub which allowed xen domUs to run with local in-vm kernels. [13:01] OK [13:02] I left linode before they switched to kvm, so I don't know how they do it today, but there _has_ to be an option to run your own kernel. open a ticket with them. [13:02] OK [13:10] is this normal for radiance in 16.10? http://imgur.com/a/swTUs === ilfantomas_ is now known as ilfantomas [13:12] Soul_Sample: the black border? [13:12] blackflow: yeah, I don't see borders like that on any elements anywhere else [13:15] Soul_Sample: probably a bug. [13:15] blackflow: I figured, but I wonder if it's on my system only, I'd like to fix it [13:17] Hello. I have a small doubt. I have a flask app running in apache web server. When we I hit the index page, the app is supposed to start an ubuntu docker container and then stop redis (lines 9 and 10 in the script). But the issue is that none of that happens. Are they any methods to achieve this. [13:17] the script is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23430449/ [13:17] how is this an ubuntu problem ? [13:17] I suggest you talk to the flask support group [13:25] @ikonia: Fine. But, does that have anything to do with user permissions [13:25] blackflow: https://www.linode.com/docs/tools-reference/custom-kernels-distros/run-a-distribution-supplied-kernel-with-kvm [13:26] donttrustem: great, you found it :) [13:26] I am getting this https://www.dropbox.com/sh/59tmxbc2km4vxdm/AAD94Jxz9WmDYgGJYYodLtHGa?dl=0 [13:27] blackflow: support sent it to me … now going to break the server [13:27] ola [13:28] donttrustem: backups! and don't trust linode's backups! [13:29] I have the production box as the backup :) [13:31] blackflow: not sure this is correct ls /boot/vmlinuz* [13:31] ls /boot/vmlinuz* /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-74-generic /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-74-server [13:33] hello everyone [13:33] someone online?

Is it possible on 16.04? One gives internet access and the other has local NAS/printers etc [13:38] blackflow: Crap .. http://pastebin.com/5vL7Qx06 [13:38] wake up ! The whole profession of psychiatry is an outright fraud and an ongoing crime of the highest order !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [13:38] I have tried this AskUbuntu solution but in the end I was unable to connect to an additional network: http://askubuntu.com/questions/488588/how-do-i-connect-to-multiple-wifi-networks [13:39] blackflow: it’’s not mounting the /dev/sda [13:39] ANTI_psychiatry: stop spamming, you've been told a hundred times. [13:39] donttrustem: with local kernel? [13:40] donttrustem: it's kvm, so if it has virtio, it's possible the kernel sees /dev/vda instead of sda [13:40] meaning you should probably properly configure grub [13:40] blackflow: now it is going over my head a bit [13:42] I think I know what did wrong .. [13:42] I just used what they had in the tutorial [13:42] Hi, is there an IRC channel for Canonical? [13:43] I have a question regarding employment opportunities at Canonical.

Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu or /msg alis list http [13:46] blackflow: I have the server backup now …. what do I need in the grub conf? [13:47] Can I put it in pastebin? [13:49] donttrustem, you could just load grub with parameters and try them out first before modifying /etc/default/grub and updating update-grub [13:50] lucas-arg: I have it faild [13:50] faild [13:50] failed [13:50] lucas-arg:http://pastebin.com/5vL7Qx06 [13:50] donttruth [13:50] donttrustem: actually I don't think it's grub, check fstab and what the root mountpoint is [13:51] if it's something like /dev/sda1 and now you maybe need /dev/vda1 [13:51] OK [13:51] you can also drop the root mount from fstab [13:51] you don't need fstab to mount root [13:52] agree with blackflow donttrustem you have to configure your disks first /etc/fstab and see whats in there try lsblk from an usb live ubuntu image and see what yours disks are, then edid /etc/fstab [13:52] agree with blackflow donttrustem you have to configure your disks first /etc/fstab and see whats in there try lsblk from an usb live ubuntu image and see what yours disks are, then edit /etc/fstab [13:52] blackflow: proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 [13:52] proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/sda / ext3 noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1 [13:52] donttrustem: /dev/sda ? no partition number? [13:53] how to run manually a demanded fsck because the system dosnt boot anymore, error code 4 [13:53] blackflow: http://pastebin.com/FFxCZmAk [13:53] that is the fstab [13:55] donttrustem: comment those out until you get a working boot, then you'll see what the device names are [13:55] I have kernel version 4.4.0-45-generic installed. when updating packages I get the error "WARNING: missing /lib/modules/version" and "depmod: ERROR: Bad version passed version" any idea on the proper way to fix this? [13:55] donttrustem: except the proc one [13:55] you should have something like /dev/sda1 or 2 or 3 or whatever not /dev/sda whats like ths disk not the partition try from an usb live image lsblk and then point fstab to /dev/sda1 o 2 or whatever [13:55] OK [13:55] lucas-arg: I guess it's possible, because it's a VM [13:55] both are block devices, sda or sdaX [13:55] the error is printed exactly as "WARNING: missing /lib/modules/version" [13:56] the problem with no partitioning is on the boot side, but being VM, it probably doesn't matter, the kernel just needs a block devices with a filesystem on it [13:56] blackflow: OK .. now just reboot [13:58] guys how can i always run fsck on my drives every time my linux machine starts ? Seems like i need to edit a file... [13:59] commco, cron [13:59] cron.d ? [14:00] zark_: cron.d in ubuntu ? [14:00] how to run manually a demanded fsck because the system dosnt boot anymore, error code 4 [14:01] blackflow: same issue … in the linode configure we also have Block Device Assignment /dev/sda for the image and /dev/sdb for the swap [14:01] huhu: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/fsck#Forcing_the_check [14:02] huhu: "You can also force fsck at boot time by passing fsck.mode=force, as a kernel parameter." [14:02] blackflow: http://pastebin.com/m6RK6cHv [14:02] blackflow: how to do that .. I mean which file has this entry ? [14:03] commco: that's the kernel param on boot, you set in the boot menu [14:03] donttrustem: can you pastebin your /boot/grub/grub.cfg ? [14:03] yep [14:03] blackflow: but that would be a temp change I need a permanent change .. [14:04] blackflow: http://pastebin.com/haWVvdtn [14:04] blackflow: correct me If Iam wrong :| [14:04] huhu, easy2boot + tools [14:05] blackflow: fstab: overlay / overlay rw 0 0 [14:05] tmpfs /tmp tmpfs nosuid,nodev 0 0 [14:05] looks that ok? [14:06] huhu: that overlay line does not look right [14:07] donttrustem: that's /etc/default/grub? [14:07] donttrustem: I meant /boot/grub/grub.cfg [14:07] yeah [14:07] (and I wrote /boot/grub/grub.cfg :) ) [14:07] commco: I don't know. I just googled "force fsck on boot" :) [14:08] commco: oh, but you can also add that to your grub config for permanence [14:08] coucou [14:08] blackflow: I take it’s not correct :( [14:08] blackflow: Thanks.. I will look into it.. :) [14:08] commco: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub and then run update-grub [14:09] hi [14:09] blackflow: I will give it a try.. [14:09] donttrustem: I don't get it. Do you have /boot/grub/grub.cfg? Can you pastebin it, or was that it? Because that's NOT a valid grub.cfg [14:10] donttrustem: oh wait... that's ubuntu 10? so probably grub1... in that case it's /boot/grub/menu.lst or something [14:10] blackflow: OK .. let brung the server back up …. I think this is my fault [14:10] I hashed out some stuff :( [14:12] How do i run a script that requires text mode user input before lightdm takes over and it goes to x? i am running 16.04 with latest patches, LXDE and lightdm. i tried simple services in /etc/systemd/system, didnt work [14:13] They run but are not interactive they are BG [14:14] okay so odd question, how fesable would it be to hold my boot partitions, one for linux and one for windows, on a 64gb flash drive and use the hdd for storage and programs? [14:14] melt: maybe using a Before= dependency in the unit file? so run before lightdm or something? [14:14] ahhh [14:15] jamie_1: like a cheap usb stick? [14:15] blackflow: good info, trying now. :) [14:15] blackflow: its a 64gb sandisk cruiser [14:15] i dont know if thats considdered cheap but thats what i have [14:16] blackflow: http://pastebin.com/FhhM4Tt8 [14:16] jamie_1: my experience with usb sticks is that they die fast, much sooner than the theoretical wear defined by the number of readwrites or age [14:17] jamie_1: but, things like FreeNAS actually do that kind of separation, so theoretically it's feasible. I just doubt with usb sticks [14:17] blackflow: that usb drive is rather new, but i was hoping that i could put all my boot stuff on my flash drive and then have my hdd which is only 250gb as storage, i was thinking of using multiboot [14:17] blackflow: I edited the /etc/default/grub which is where I went wrong I think …. [14:17] donttrustem: fix that root=/dev/sda in it [14:17] it's probably vda [14:17] (but confirm that first) [14:18] donttrustem: maybe you could use UUIDs instead, check with blkid [14:18] but im unsure how that would work with root on linux... i know i can do it fine on windows and just install everything to a gpt partition scheme, but the root is where programs are usually stored so the 64gb might fill up quicker than i would hope unless i would store them on hdd and just do a simbolic link to them in root [14:19] blackflow: I know it might be a silly question but how do I confirn it should be vda [14:19] :D [14:19] damn .. are crazy the internet things [14:20] donttrustem: frankly, not sure, as you need to boot into the kernel that in turn sees the device based on driver. check with support. or try UUIDs [14:20] donttrustem: but... if it can't find sda, chances are it's vda. try it, see what happens :) [14:21] so edit the file that says don’t edt :) [14:22] @_@ [14:23] blackflow: OK .. here goes nothing :) [14:24] blackflow: it runs but still goes to the os. the current service file i have is like this: http://hastebin.com/ovexopugoc.ini [14:24] donttrustem: sure. it says don't edit because it will be rewritten by the next run of update-grub [14:24] OK [14:24] donttrustem: so you can do it manually once to see if it works, and once you boot into such a system, running update-grub should fix it [14:25] rebooting now [14:26] melt: what about Before=lightdm.service ? [14:26] Trying now. [14:27] blackflow: :( ALERT! /dev/vda does not exist. Dropping to a shell! [14:27] donttrustem: blast [14:27] donttrustem: hey, can you ls /dev on that busybox shell?

[15:51] but if you're using something like dnsmasq you can "flush" it's content [15:52] as far as I know there is none [15:52] i've cleared dns cache in chrome [15:52] if you do "nslookup www.domain.com" do you see the right address or the wrong address [15:55] cvele: run "ps ax | grep dnsmasq" in terminal to check if dnsmasq is running. if its running see if you find the --cache-size= option, if its set to 0 caching is disabled. also, some routers cache, some ISP-dns servers cache also. do you use the same dns servers in both ubuntu and windows? [15:55] nslookup wrong address both in ubuntu and win, but chrome on win goes to right address [15:59] hi [15:59] hi [15:59] hi [15:59] Does anyone here use i3? [16:00] I'm new and would like a cool config [16:00] you'd do better asking in the i3 channel [16:00] as that will have a lot more people with a wider range of settings [16:01] alright [16:01] channel #i3 [16:02] hey guys, I'm having trouble trying to connect to a specific wifi at home but I have no idea where to begin debugging that. I've tried to connect to different networks and it worked, it's just my personal network that doesn't work [16:02] ahtd: try to plug router on and off [16:03] zewny: I've done that already and it didn' t work. any other idea? [16:03] ahtd: what happening exactly, what stage of the connection does it get to [16:04] ikonia: it tries to connect but fail [16:04] ikonia: it just keep trying on and on [16:04] yes, but what part of the connection process does it fail at [16:05] ikonia: is there a way to check that on the command line? [16:05] how are you configuring the connection ? [16:06] i'm using the graphical interface [16:06] ahtd: using network manger ? [16:06] ikonia: yeah [16:06] thanx guys and girls, you gave an idea, and i fixed it [16:06] ahtd: so the syslog should log that trying to connect [16:06] ikonia: I've tried restarting it, but it doesn' t work too [16:07] is there a list of packages that have ubuntu-patches? [16:07] list [16:07] gebruiker: what do you mean ? [16:08] hi all! running a backup job via Deja Dup, but its creating several 50Mb archive files (in backup destination) any way to specify bigger archive size ? [16:08] ahtd: see what syslog says, and I would check the logs on the router as well, could be the router not accepting the connection as well [16:09] ikonia: (assuming ubuntu wiki, UbuntuForDebianDevelopers knowledge), some packages from debian have patches that are added and eventually submerged back into debian again, and some not. is there a list of packages that have recieved the ubuntu-care ? [16:09] ikonia: kicksled thanks guys, I'll see what I can do [16:09] gebruiker: not that I'm aware of, however it will be in the package definition [16:09] gebruiker: can you supply context as to why you need this ? [16:10] ikonia: curiousity in learning more about packageing and ubuntu and debian relationship [16:10] !list [16:10] Giovanni: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». [16:10] you'll see the patch definitions in the package manifrsts [16:11] what is the best way to backup a system on the cloud like aws? [16:16] rexwin_: backup data of back the box as an "image" ? [16:16] sorry, backup the data or make an image of the box [16:17] yes, make an image of the box [16:17] it's not really practical for AWS, as you'd have to use something like S3, which mans you'd need an app that supported IAM or keys, then you'd need to transfer that over the internet for storage, then recover that down over the public internet [16:17] it is possible though [16:19] guys, is it prohibited to share knowledge about torrents availability here ? [16:20] zewny, linux torrents? [16:20] anyone know a good photo gallery manager in php? [16:20] bazhang: if that makes difference, i'd ask about it, and best source of linux torrents is ? [16:21] zewny: the linux distros link to their torrent images [16:21] distrowatch.com zewny [16:21] zewny: it's normally on the individual linux distros page a link to the official torrent [16:21] Is there any screen capture software for linux that doesn't crash or otherwise suck? [16:21] thank you both [16:22] pepijndevos, whats wrong with kazam [16:23] bazhang, last time I tried it it sort of glitched out and left a dysfunctional icon in my toolbar. [16:23] pepijndevos: simplescreenrecorder? [16:23] rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "/backups/Pictures" failed: Permission denied (13 [16:24] pepijndevos, no probs here at all [16:24] this is what I get when I run grsync [16:24] I'll give it another go.. [16:24] great [16:24] pepijndevos, the one I most recently used is just called Screenshot [16:25] rifter, doesn't seem to do video though. [16:25] pepijndevos: or screenstudio [16:33] pepijndevos, sorry I thought you meant a screen shot program === Elronnd is now known as Elronnd|slex [16:59] is there a way to get ubuntu 16.04 server to stop changing the video mode during boot? [16:59] Hello :) [16:59] I'm not sure what it's doing, but I can see it booting for a few seconds and then the screen goes black [16:59] seems to be trying to set a new resolution or something [17:00] nbastin: on server? I wouldn't think the server would try to do tha [17:00] tgm4883: yeah me either.. :-/ [17:01] thats strange. Every time i've installed server it locks into the best resolution [17:01] ZenPowerBuilder: it might be trying to, but it finds one that doesn't work [17:02] My computer crashed while upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04. Has anyone had this problem? [17:02] I've had this problem before with the fbconsole driver, but I don't remember how I fixed it [17:04] Should I try rebooting from a USB drive? I probably lost everything too right? [17:06] blah, removing load_video or gfxmode lines has no effect [17:08] Ha [17:08] Sorry I meant to say has anyone had any experience recovering from a crash while upgrading? [17:10] Hello all [17:10] Hello [17:10] woo, passing nomodeset to the kernel seems to have fixed it === Tims_Tech is now known as Tim_NL [17:11] Congrats. [17:13] How about those super smart people on here. I have a big problem. My system crashed during an upgrade and I need some advice. [17:14] well, if you didn't make a backup before you did it, you might be able to boot from a USB and make a backup of some things [17:14] Can anybody help me? [17:14] although configs and stuff will be in a weird state [17:15] nbastin thanks. That is kind of what I was hoping to do [17:15] Do you know if the USB drive needs to be empty? I imagine so. [17:16] Steve__: empty? when? It needs to have an OS on it... [17:17] I mean does it need to be empty except for the OS? [17:17] Steve__: as long as it boots, it doesn't matter [17:18] but I mean, if you make one from scratch it will destroy everything that was on it before [17:18] (usually, anyhow, as a result of the process used) [17:18] Why automysqlbackup daily folder is empty? [17:18] Ok. Thank you nbastin. I am getting a black login screen after a failed boot attempt. [17:19] Steve__: can you ctrl+alt+f1 to a console? [17:19] I will try a new, empty USB drive and load 16 === ilfantomas_ is now known as ilfantomas [17:20] Should I load 16.04 or 14.04 like I was running before? Does that matter? [17:21] ducasse yes I can [17:21] Steve__: ok, try running 'sudo apt install -f' [17:26] also it's 2016 ffs, can we get an indicator of which interfaces actually have link in the interface chooser... [17:27] I am trying to access the internet on virtualbox could anybody help me please> [17:27] nbastin: ubuntu has been doing that mode switching for a longer time (during boot) [17:28] nbastin: did you find a way to stop it? [17:28] akik: I know I had this problem with 14.04 but didn't remember how to fix it [17:28] akik: well at the moment I'm just setting nomodeset on the boot line, but then when I finally get it to work I'll change it in grub [17:29] nbastin: yea i guess it's to do with the fb studd [17:29] stuff [17:29] akik: I just don't see the point of this on server, and wonder why they do it (we *always* have this problem - it never ever works fresh) [17:29] just in 14.04 I had a PXE setup that I'd apparently already fixed by hand [17:29] now I'm building a new one for 16.04 [17:30] nbastin: at some point in time there was a boot parameter nofb === Tim_NL is now known as Tims_Tech [17:31] yeah consolefb seems to be the only option these days [17:37] Heya guys, a quick question. Does Ubuntu Core 16 effect us normal users? [17:38] NwS meaning? [17:38] Is it something I need to "worry"/keep an eye on or is it only meant for IOT? [17:39] Or I should go back re-read what this is all about.. [17:39] Go back and read [17:39] Kk will do that lol [17:39] My computer keeps crashing and im not exactly sure why, reading systemlog. As soon as the computer restarted, i uploaded the system log https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/491406/syslog . anybody think they can help? it will happen when im not doing anything and its idle [17:51] hi everone! [17:52] im trying to setup a local repo using ubuntu server 16.10. my souces.list in /etc/apt uses yakkity, but my mirror.list uses xenial. does this make a differance? [17:52] im using apt-mirror. [17:53] i assume that im downloading packages for 16.04. witch would suck considering ive probably been downloading the wrong packages for the last couple nights === JanC_ is now known as JanC === ImpeccableEyes is now known as UrsaTempest === for{} is now known as YouthOfTheNation [17:55] okay im was wrong and confiused. 16.10 is yakkity...but im on 16.10 but my sources.list shows xenial. even lsb_release -a shows 16.10.. whats happening [17:57] can anyone see this? [17:57] I can [17:57] pagliacciBlake, thank you [18:02] DarthEaron: you are running yakkety but the repos listed in sources.list are for xenial? [18:02] correct [18:03] DarthEaron: that makes _no_ sense :) [18:03] DarthEaron: what does 'apt policy base-files' say? [18:04] ducasse, im very sorry, i messed up. sources.ist is correct. mirror.list is wrong [18:05] DarthEaron: i kind of suspected that ;) [18:06] ducasse, sorry about the confusion. so i should just copy the souces.list repos into mirror.list and restart. fun fun. [18:07] ducasse, trying to run an offline repo in hyper-v inside windows 10 [18:07] (i hate hyper v but its used at work so im learning it. ) [18:09] cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep -v "#" >> /etc/apt/mirror.list for the win! [18:09] DarthEaron: if you run into other problems with apt-mirror, i suggest #ubuntu-server, more people there are using it than here. [18:10] ducasse, oh thank you!!! [18:11] can anyone name one aplication to write a windows 10 image into a bootable USB disk ?

[18:24] ducasse, will try , thanks === tcz is now known as delaytv [18:25] Guest28828: if you can't find any searching launchpad I guess there isn't any [18:26] that's too bad, I hate the changes made to nautilus in the last couple of versions [18:26] hakr: if you have access to a dvd burner you could burn a dvd?

[18:44] hey [18:46] Im trying to get ubuntu working with a Marvell 88E8057 ethernet controller.. but the sky2 driver does'nt seem to work and I cant get the sk98lin driver from marvell to work with the 4.8 kernel.. Is there anyway I can either rebuild the driver for the 4.8 or anyone else got at good suggestion [18:47] Hi [18:47] is there crtl+shift+del windows to ubuntu thing?

[18:50] you should get a tiny cross [18:50] yes [18:50] and nothing happens [18:50] i got cursor with disallow [18:50] yeah click on a window and it should close it [18:51] but it not work [18:51] i cant click o nstuff [18:51] click on stuff* [18:52] if you have a working terminal, ps aux | grep wireshark (assuming thats the app that hangs) find pid and type kill [18:53] ty :3 [18:53] or pkill wireshark [18:53] worked for me earlier today when I had an app that froze and xkill gave me an error message about the cursor [18:53] if it's not a lot what is ps aux? [18:53] or what EriC^^ said, thats easier [18:53] worked! [18:53] so amaazing how stuff is easier [18:54] ps aux lists the processes [18:54] thx [18:55] xocket: there's alot of useful commands and stuff here http://tldp.org/LDP/GNU-Linux-Tools-Summary/GNU-Linux-Tools-Summary.pdf [18:55] ty :3 [18:55] so much [18:55] np [18:57] Hello :) [18:58] ello [18:58] I have some minor quirk when I have installed ubuntu on ZFS, and it isn't ZFS related I think, but methof I used, network manager doesn't manage anything really [18:58] if I install ubuntu normally with GUI-installer NM works, also in live, so it is not all bad [18:59] I've already checked /etc/network and generally everywhere I could figure out to look at [18:59] method to install was basically debootstrap and install base system etc like that [18:59] EriC^^, Thanks! [19:00] Brisr: no problem! :) [19:00] I gave up [19:00] for some reason, NM does manage mine wireless just fine, but not wired nor 3g [19:01] Changing the motherboard instead [19:01] so... I wonder does installer do some extra step with network manager, or what would be the diffirence between normal install and mine [19:03] I've even thrown out an idea if it would be even some apparmor stuff or something.. but I'm at loss here :) [19:03] I'm on Ubuntu 15.04 but when I try uprade to 16x with `sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` it shows 0 updates [19:04] dequeues: because you do that kinf of update with "do-release-upgrade" [19:04] hey guys, can someone tell me how to DECREASE bluetooth mouse sensitivity ? [19:04] there's no such option in "Mouse & Touchpad" [19:04] running ubuntu 16.10 [19:05] dequeues: "dist-upgrade" in apt-get is kind of misnomer... it doesn't mean that it updates your distro to new release, but updates your current distro up to it's date [19:05] Onepamopa: there should, I know I have that option, but I don't have bluetooth mouse currently tough [19:06] olmari, well, strangely enough - I don't [19:06] it's an old laptop, fujitsu-siemens [19:06] there's option for the touchpad, but not for the mouse [19:06] the mouse successfully connected @ bluetooth, but speed is way too fast .... [19:07] no pointer-speed in mouse settings? [19:07] OerHeks, pointer speed only for the touchpad, I tried adjusting that - no effect @ the bt mouse [19:07] olmari: ah, okay. How would I go about updating the distro? [19:08] dequeues: like I said earlier, "do-release-upgrade" should do it [19:08] OerHeks, perhaps there's a way to do that via terminal ? [19:08] (I hope..) [19:09] Onepamopa explore the 'xdotool' command [19:09] MonkeyDust, thanks, will do [19:09] olmari: it's saying command not found [19:10] I like seeing ubuntu getting better and better, so perhaps @ next updates this annoying issue could be fixed ... :) [19:11] dequeues: then one needs to install it, not sure with what it actually came.. it wasn't too self-explanatory [19:11] I haven't seen vanilla ubuntu 16.04 [19:12] ah, I needed update-manager [19:12] dequeues: update-manager-core I believe [19:12] hehe :) [19:13] oh great: An upgrade from 'vivid' to 'xenial' is not supported with this tool. [19:13] sup [19:13] hello === pixel is now known as Guest93607 [19:13] ... [19:13] great [19:13] my name changed [19:13] >:( [19:14] dequeues: so by steps it is, unless reinstall [19:15] Hi people. I Have a simple question: ¿What is the differencie in "ls /etc | sort -rn" and "ls /etc | sort -r". I know one dows a "numeric sort", but i dont know what a "numeric sort" is. [19:17] btw, I don't see a package manager in ubuntu, which do I choose? [19:19] Onepamopa, apt apt-get software center or synaptic package manager take your pick [19:20] squinty, I thought there wasn't a bundled package manager GUI, but found "Ubuntu Software" )) === tinyalpha is now known as optik [19:21] coming from bsd for the last 6 years I haven't touched linux ;) [19:21] Okay this might be a windows issue but what can possibly cause a machine (raspberry) to be perfectly pingable but windows gets one response and then only timeouts for like 10 minutes or restart. Tested with multiple windows and linux machines. Very strange [19:21] Like it's rate limiting windows only and then like a maniac [19:22] is one of these computers running ubuntu? [19:25] well ubuntu can ping the raspberry in question and it itself runs a debian derivat. But I guess it's rather a windows issue because in the linux world there is no issue just windows has this weird behaviour (the strange thing is that you get one response and then deadline). I thought maybe someone has an idea or encountered something like this before. [19:26] so unless the ubuntu system has an issue, and based on what you say it doesn't, you're indeed asking this on the wrong channel [19:28] E: /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-s4XXFf/1-flightgear-data-base_1%3a2016.3.1+dfsg-0ubuntu1~ppa2_all.deb: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/games/flightgear/Phi/index.html', which is also in package flightgear-phi 2016.2.1+dfsg2-2 [19:30] hello and good evening! [19:30] i need urgent advice [19:31] my system is halfway down: graphics do noit work properly, even login screen [19:31] ubuntu-drivers-common:i386: [19:31] Depends: python3-apt but it is not going to be installed [19:31] Depends: python3-xkit but it is not installable [19:31] Conflicts: ubuntu-drivers-common but 1:0.4.22 is to be installed [19:31] i see only a single-color backgrounds, then (after i blindly logged on) screen split in half between grey and non-grey [19:31] dust, if flightgear is comming from a PPA, contact the ppa owner, but i read this now > https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?t=30694&p=296720 [19:31] and mouse pointer as well [19:32] what can i do to fix things up? [19:35] Kurvivor, i think you need to give more details: what ubuntu version, fresh install, what syste spec, what videocard and driver? [19:35] hi all, to use GLPI, i setup LAMP server and service using https://www.linode.com/docs/websites/lamp/install-lamp-on-ubuntu-16-04, and performance accessing this is slow. Should I remove and install XAMPP? [19:36] mine is 16.04.1 Desktop x64 [19:36] linocisco, XAMPP is not supported here. [19:36] or better in #ubuntu-server [19:37] OerHeks: here is most of uname output: 3.13.0-100-generic #147-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 18 16:49:53 UTC 2016 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux [19:37] OerHeks, thx [19:37] kept, as i hoped, up tpo date with by installing updates when prompted [19:37] OerHeks, I am not asking about XAMPP. performance problem is issue [19:38] how can i get video card information from the command line? [19:40] Kurvivor, lspci | grep VGA [19:40] linocisco: question you asked was if you should remove and install xampp. a better formulated question about your issue I guess could give you better answers :) also, #ubuntu-server is probably a better channel to ask about server stuff :) [19:40] Kurvivor, you can use glxinfo for more detailed stuff [19:40] hi, I am using bumblebee on my optimus laptop and it stopped working after last apt-get upgrade... any recommended debugging procedure? [19:41] linocisco, just saying moving to xampps does not give support here, you might want to reask in #ubuntu-server too, i am unknown with glpi [19:41] OerHeks: it is GeForce [19:41] VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK107 [GeForce GT 640] (rev a1) [19:41] apn: noted [19:41] kicksled I have noticed performance problem accessing glpi app after installating LAMP. if it is not good practice to install LAMP on ubuntu desktop, should I use XAMPP instead? [19:41] kurvivor: the same issue? [19:41] i need your opinion. [19:41] !xampp [19:41] We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories; see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. [19:42] is it normal because mine is Desktop ubuntu? [19:42] we should not suggest xampp, your conclusion that a desktop envidonment besides a service is too heavy, might be true [19:42] serycjon: does your lapton not work in the same way as mine? [19:43] hello [19:43] Kurvivor: I have just joined this channel, so I don't know your issues. but my graphics don't work after last apt-get upgrade [19:43] at the moment, when i switch with Ctrl-Alt-F7 to graphic interface, all i see is black screen and mouse cursor [19:43] kurvivor: is it the same? === Raxzinator is now known as Raxz [19:43] serycjon: seems like that [19:43] thankfully irc is accessible from console [19:44] I have managed to get it somehow working, but glxinfo says couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig [19:45] and optirun glxinfo says bumblebee daemon is not running... [19:45] bumblebeed says module 'nvidia-331' is not found... So I guess I will install latest nvidia drivers and hope for the best [19:46] serycjon, seems like an old install, what version of ubuntu is this? [19:46] linocisco: I honestly have no idea. But I would guess running a LAMP stack on a ubuntu desktop could cause some performance issues, depending on how much resources you have available. The desktop environment uses quite a bit of resources, meaning less resources available for your LAMP stack and GLPi. [19:46] bumblebee -> prime is current [19:46] OerHeks: 14.04 [19:48] result of glxinfo: Error: unable to open display [19:52] i plugin a usb storage device and in dmesg i see that it has been picked up and after 10 seconds it is given a sd device name (sdd) but fdisk -l does not list the storage device and i cannot seem to mount the device.

[19:53] notblackcat: have you tried formatting the device with gparted? or you need the data on it? [19:54] Kurvivor: lsb_release -a [19:54] i have 14.04, the horror [19:55] why does apt-get dist-upgrade does nothing, then? [19:55] it has a partition, it works in my other linux computer without issue. [19:55] Kurvivor: 14.04 is still a valid LTS [19:55] guys, another question - is there an ssh manager for linux with user/pass auto authentication? (not ssh keys) [19:55] there's such for windows, putty-nd [19:56] anything similar for linux ? [19:56] Onepamopa: putty? [19:56] lotuspsychje: also i cannot even fdisk the device [19:57] kicksled, plain putty doesn't have auto authentication [19:57] notblackcat: wich linux Os does it work, and wich ubuntu version is your current? [19:57] I was thinking more on the line of yaquake [19:57] 1 window, multiple sessions [19:58] tho it doesn't have session manager :( [19:58] both are ubuntu 16.04 [19:58] lotuspsychje: one is a laptop one is a desktop [19:59] notblackcat: hmm, weird, tested other usb ports? both systems up to date to latest .1? [20:00] lotuspsychje: yes, this is strange, i don't know what to think about it. have tested the usb device in front ports, back ports, and a usb hub. same behavior. [20:00] notblackcat: try a tail _f /var/log/syslog in both systems and plugin your device and compare [20:00] -f [20:01] notblackcat: what i would surely test is backup your data to the working ubuntu, then format it with gparted [20:02] lotuspsychje: i will try that. [20:02] hello! i seem to have a problem with graphical display after updating system [20:03] i suspect my graphical card drivers stopped working [20:03] how can i verify that? [20:03] and how can it be fixed? [20:08] Kurvivor: ubuntu version? graphics card chipset? driver version? [20:09] ubuntu version is 14.04 [20:09] Kurvivor: updated to latest? [20:09] VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK107 [GeForce GT 640] (rev a1) [20:10] lotuspsychje: yes. I will upgrade it further if needed (although i do not know how, as apt-get dist-upgrade does not do anything at the moment) [20:10] how do i get driver version from command line? [20:10] Kurvivor: sudo lshw -C video [20:11] Hello guys I'm here to say that my installation of Ubuntu has been a bit faulty I vamt boot into Ubuntu its just contiusly on the loading screen and I tryed loading by grub and doing startx didn't work what can I do [20:11] What can 8 do? [20:11] Chickenshadow: press esc and see what it's hanging on [20:12] provide more details about your system, how you are attempting to boot, and perhaps the avenue which got you closest to success? [20:12] startx and grub are completely not related [20:12] lotuspsychje: well, there are a lot of lines in the output [20:12] OK oys Ubuntu 16.04 [20:13] Kurvivor: what does driver= say? [20:13] 64bot [20:13] lotuspsychje: nothing, no such line [20:14] Kurvivor: you sure? does it sau 'unclaimed' or so? [20:14] OK I'm booting now [20:14] Kurvivor: you could check additional drivers section to see other drivers [20:15] Its on a black screen [20:15] lotuspsychje: sorry, i was wrong [20:15] !details | Chickenshadow as kyeegun suggested [20:15] Chickenshadow as kyeegun suggested: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. [20:15] lotuspsychje: configuration: driver=nvidia latency=0 [20:16] Kurvivor: check additional drivers and test another driver version to test perhaps [20:17] Kurvivor: also i recommend to keep your system up to date to latest [20:17] I can't past stuff in because I'm on my phone I can't loginto my HP elletebook 8440p [20:17] lotuspsychje: how do i update system to latest version? [20:17] Kurvivor: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [20:17] Its stuck on a start job [20:17] Chickenshadow: which one? [20:17] lotuspsychje: well, i have done that - and it did not fix a thing for now [20:18] or du you mean ubuntu version? what would command for that be? [20:18] sudo apt-get dist-upgrade does not start an upgrade, for some reason [20:18] It sayes its hold until boot prosses finishes [20:19] Would it help if I updated to 16.10 [20:20] Chickenshadow: higher kernel versions can fix stuff [20:20] And its stuck on starting the GNOME display manager [20:20] Chickenshadow: but first it would be interesting to know what 16.04 doesnt work first [20:21] Chickenshadow: is it a fresh installation or did it just happen after a reboot or something? [20:22] And another error is failed to start LSB:Dell fan/cpu-temperate moniter [20:22] It happens after installation of an aplivatin [20:23] Kurvivor: does lsb_release -a show .5? [20:23] How do I go to command line at grub? [20:24] Chickenshadow, what is an aplivatin ? [20:24] !grub | Chickenshadow [20:24] Chickenshadow: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [20:24] hey ioria :p [20:24] Application [20:24] lotuspsychje, lotussssssssssssssssssssssss [20:24] hi lotuspsychje [20:24] MonkeyDust: :p [20:24] Chickenshadow, can you elaborate ? [20:24] I have grub that's about it [20:25] I can go in recovery mode [20:25] Chickenshadow: start from the beginning, tell us the whole story: you installed ubuntu 16.04? then what [20:26] And get the command there [20:26] lotuspsychje: yes, it does [20:26] in Description section [20:26] Kurvivor: ok, so your up to date..try another driver switch from additional drivers section, can you find that? [20:27] Kurvivor: tell us wich driver versions you see in the list? [20:27] Chickenshadow, if you don't say what you did before the issue, we canot help you [20:28] I got some games then months passed all fine Ubuntu then I added some macox themes worked fine no prob then I installed both windows version and Linux of rids of rods and installed flightgear then I rebooted and [20:29] Couldn't login [20:29] lotuspsychje: what list? What driver sections? i do not know what commands i need to use o get to it [20:29] Chickenshadow, whatever you did, undo it [20:29] lotuspsychje: no windows are being displayed for me [20:30] Kurvivor: you have no GUI? [20:30] ioria: can you undo apt-get upgrade? [20:30] Kurvivor we have to know *something*, to be able tp help you [20:30] lotuspsychje: that is correct [20:30] loskutak, don't think the problem is in there [20:30] lotuspsychje: that's how i described my problemat first [20:31] Hi, sorry if that's a noob question to ask, but I was wondering about what the process was to switch to libinput in Ubuntu16.10? What package do I have to install? Do I have to switch from the driver previously used by my touchpad, uninstall it? Also what should I expect to have to configure once I am using libinput? [20:31] after something (i presume, an update i agreed on), my gui went missing [20:31] So I flowed some wiki sugestins and that made my laptop reboot every second so I whent into grub and tryed my best and now the command startx doesn't work [20:31] ioria: I have just joined, but my nvidia/bumblebee stuff stopped working after apt-get upgrade :/ [20:31] loskutak, don't use bumblebee, use prime i'd say [20:31] i get screen filled with grey (if it is login screen) or black (after i blindly type in a password and login) [20:32] i also have mouse cursor there [20:32] Well guys I have nothing [20:32] and artefacts if i try and move it [20:32] Chickenshadow, and don't use startx... [20:32] I can't any way [20:33] i presume the problem lies in my graphic card drivers, however - how can iverify/check that? [20:33] Kurvivor: ubuntu-drivers list from terminal [20:33] elmagio_: do you see xserver-xorg-input-libinput? that worked for me in previous version [20:33] Chickenshadow, if you got recovery , you can check logs [20:33] elmagio_: it didn't need any config [20:33] How? [20:33] ioria, well I will switch to prime, if that will help... the thing is I don't know what to do now... I thing the problem for me is that nvidia-331 cannot be found... does that mean that the driver got uninstalled somehow? [20:33] akik: Yeah, that's available [20:33] Chickenshadow, cd /var/log [20:34] akik: so I install that, reboot and I'm using libinput? [20:34] lotuspsychje: nvidia-340, nvidia-367, nvidia-304 are there [20:34] [20:34] No need to uninstall synaptics? [20:34] elmagio_: probably just needs a logout & login [20:34] loskutak, dpkg -l | grep nvidia* [20:34] Yeah.... [20:34] Kurvivor: test another version... [20:35] Now what? [20:35] lotuspsychje: a) how do i find out which one is currently installed b) how do i test another version? [20:35] well thanks akik ! I'll do that then. Any idea how to make sure I'm using libinput afterwards? [20:35] elmagio_: you notice it probably easiest that you can keep two fingers on the touchpad and the mouse cursor still can be moved :) [20:35] sorry for those questions - i do not have an internet browser at the moment to find answer to them myself [20:35] Chickenshadow, check kern.log and boot.log and Xorg.0.log [20:36] akik: what do you mean? wouldn't that make it impossible to have 2 finger scrolling? [20:36] What do I look for? [20:37] Chickenshadow, errors , failed ... [20:37] elmagio_: that was just the biggest problem for me with the default touchpad driver [20:37] ioria: lot of stuff... http://pastebin.com/Vpeusd3y [20:37] elmagio_: i couldn't keep two fingers on the touchpad and move the mouse cursor [20:38] Kurvivor: try this: cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version [20:38] How do I look to the right? [20:38] oh ok, well thanks akik. Have a nice day ! [20:38] loskutak, well, i'd purge bumblebee and nvidia* and i'd start ovr [20:38] since i see people talking about nvidia drivers and bumblebee, can someone explain to me why can i use prime-selec to switch between GPUs on a desktop PC (not an optimus laptop) when i connect the display to intel GPU? I never thought this is possible. [20:39] prime-select* [20:39] *over [20:39] ioria: oh gosh... If I only remembered how I have got it working before... :/ Well... hopefuly i will get it going [20:39] lotuspsychje: NVIDIA UNIX x86 Kernel Module 304.132 [20:40] which seems to be kind of old [20:40] loskutak, sorry [20:40] Kurvivor: ok so current driver 304, test another one now [20:40] lotuspsychje: how do i do that? [20:41] Now Kern.log died [20:41] Kurvivor: sudo apt-get install yourdriver-version [20:42] well before I mess my system up completely, anybody has a recomendation, how to get primus/bumblebee running? any tutorial working for you? I remember spending insane amount of time a year or two ago on this... [20:42] lotuspsychje: it says nvidia-340 is already installed [20:42] Well. All of my logs don't exist anymore [20:43] loskutak: sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime [20:43] loskutak, if you install from 'Additional Driver' you don't need any other setup [20:43] Can I get all of my files off of my computer somehow? [20:43] Kurvivor: thats weird, try a purge then [20:44] Hello [20:44] Is there a way to login to ubuntu using openpgp? Can anyone link me a resource so I can learn more about this? [20:44] Chickenshadow, are you in root shell by now ? [20:45] Yeah [20:45] Chickenshadow, mount -o remount,rw / [20:45] K [20:45] loskutak i dont have a manual but i can tell you that to get it working on Ubuntu you need 1) to manually edit /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf and change every occurence of nvidia-current to the name of your nvidia installed package (nvidia-361 for example). also if you try to setup bumblebee after using prime-select you have to do prime-select intel from what i remember. Often prime-select messes it up beyond my patience. [20:45] Chickenshadow, uname -r [20:46] I can't use ubuntu on vm [20:46] lotuspsychje, ioria: so purge all nvidia stuff, then install nvidia-prime, then install some nvidia driver? or the other way around? [20:47] 4.4.0-generic [20:47] loskutak: nvidia-prime should be installed with an nvidia driver [20:48] loskutak, purge nvidia, sudo apt-get purge nvidia* and sudo apt-get purge bumblebee* reboot and try first from Additional Drivers [20:48] What do I do now? [20:48] Chickenshadow, paste the whole line [20:48] How what line [20:48] I'm talking [20:49] !ask | shakib[m] [20:49] shakib[m]: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [20:49] Chickenshadow, there is no simple 4.4.0-generic on ubuntu (by default) [20:49] lotuspsychje: purged nvidia-3* (to get all driver versions known on the system), then installed nvisia-340 [20:49] 4.4.0-45generic [20:49] Chickenshadow, ok [20:49] Kurvivor: reboot and test? [20:50] Chickenshadow, cat /etc(issue [20:50] lotuspsychje: will do [20:50] bye [20:50] Chickenshadow, cat /etc/issue [20:50] I can't use ubuntu on vmware. why?

[20:56] jarnos: wich country are you in? [20:57] Chickenshadow, with that cmd, you boot in text mode... and can reinstall things (hopefully) [20:57] MonkeyDust: [20:57] lotuspsychje: thank you [20:57] Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/default.target to /lib/systemd/multi-user.target. [20:57] praise be, i have GUI once again [20:57] Chickenshadow, try to reboot [20:57] jarnos: perhaps the #ubuntu-mirrors channel know whats up? [20:58] lotuspsychje, Finland. [20:58] Kurvivor: did it work? [20:58] OK [20:58] lotuspsychje: yes [20:58] !yay | Kurvivor [20:58] Kurvivor: Glad you made it! :-) [20:58] How do I boot in text mode?

[21:05] Chickenshadow, how did you install it ? [21:06] Chickenshadow, usually the script or the installer got a 'unistall flag' you can use [21:06] I installed rigs of rods from command but that failed so I tryed wine that also failed [21:07] Chickenshadow, k, try to restart lightdm .... sudo service lightdm restart [21:07] And I installed flight gear by command s [21:07] Chickenshadow, maybe you have gdm [21:08] Chickenshadow, sudo service gdm restart [21:08] I can't [21:08] Chickenshadow, what you have gdm or lightdm ?

[21:37] Hello, anyone familiar about installing the Lumina Desktop Environment onto Ubuntu? [21:38] xotu: I think it's an issue with Vivaldi. [21:38] xotu: Thanks it is fixed now. [21:38] :D [21:39] sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*-vf @ aruns [21:39] then sudo apt-get update [21:39] ok [21:39] nm [21:39] okay so two down and lets see === precise is now known as precise|snek [21:43] ok solved three issues on here [21:43] i can get a hang of this [21:43] but no one can solve mine!?@#!@?# [21:43] lol [21:44] what's ur prob! [21:44] I'm trying to get xmonad working on xubuntu 16.04. It launches, closes/hides all windows and then doesn't seem to recognize default hot keys. alt-shift-enter won't launch new console, etc [21:44] I need help with grub [21:45] the boot repair tool isn't working for me [21:45] DMJC, what do you need to do? [21:45] I've got ubuntu on /dev/sda3, /boot on /dev/sda1 [21:45] whats the error [21:45] grub is booting in grub-repair mode [21:45] I can boot my system by setting prefix=(hd0,msdos1)/grub [21:46] but I need to permanently set those options. [21:46] try sudo apt-get check @ scottrb3 [21:46] then sudo apt-get install -f [21:46] it keeps trying to default to prefix=(hd0,msdos3)/boot/grub [21:47] try running upgrade-grub again [21:47] er [21:47] update-grub [21:47] that doesn't work... [21:47] maybe fstab is wrong? [21:48] dankan: What doesnt work on that command? [21:48] grub-install [21:48] then run it [21:48] xotu reinstalling grub is good idea, it doesnt hurt to check if fstab is written ok. [21:49] have you tried grub-rescue @ DMJC? === ilfantomas_ is now known as ilfantomas [21:49] ok let me find an article on this.. too much typing [21:50] grub is always a common issue [21:50] sec [21:50] it might be fstab [21:50] I'm going to test something [21:50] http://askubuntu.com/questions/192621/grub-rescue-prompt-repair-grub [21:51] yeah I can get into the system using the rescue prompt [21:51] DMJC check the UUID of disks with gnome-disks and compare them to fstab, maybe something wrong with the /boot and then grub wont boot right. [21:51] possibly @ dankan [21:51] the problem is it doesn't save those settings for the next boot [21:51] i loathe grub [21:51] look at that article @ dmjc [21:51] scroll down [21:51] it gives you info on saving settings on next boot === neurosis-- is now known as neurosis [21:55] Hi, I am back with the nvidia issue... I get this when booting: systemd-udevd[915]: failed to execute /bin/systemctl ... no such file or directory [21:55] let me tell you something about Nvidia [21:56] I've always had trouble with that damn gpu [21:56] on linux [21:56] i prefer Intel gpu [21:56] loskutak but the system boots? [21:56] SORRY FOR THE CAPS, I CANNOT TURN IT OF :/ STUCK IN CONSOLE. [21:56] [21:57] IT BOOTS, BUT NO GRAPHICS [21:57] and yet you managed to type without caps when you first joined [21:57] loskutak, tell me this , whats your nvidia GPU model [21:57] if you look at the error it can't execute the systemctl command to start a service, you need to look at what service that is [21:58] loskutak: try "reset" === precise|snek is now known as precise [21:58] how can i find the default gw in a LAN [21:58] b_p: your network admin tells you [21:58] b_p: type: netstat -rn [21:59] b_p, netstat -rn [21:59] if i am a guest in a lan? can i assume that the dhcp server is also a gateway? [21:59] (oh lowercase back :)) [21:59] -1 [21:59] b_p: no, you cant. [21:59] b_p: no, the dhcp server will give you the gateway [21:59] but it will probably not be the dhcp server [21:59] b_p, You can se this by typing ifconfig [22:00] well hot diggity thankyou [22:00] Izno: how do you see the default gateway using ifconfig? [22:00] no you cannot [22:00] so running grub-install after you set the boot variables locks them in [22:00] ifconfig will not tell you the gateway, and it will not tell you what the gateway should be [22:00] beautiful [22:00] ikonia: /bin/systemctl start --no-block nvidia-persistenced.service... but the file that doesn't exist is the /bin/systemctl... [22:00] loskutak: so there is your problem [22:00] @ DMJC congrats [22:00] and you're welcome ;) [22:01] Nvidia issues gives me shudders [22:01] just duckduckgo.com your issue [22:01] I've had nightmares as a newb with Nvidia [22:01] years ago [22:01] xotu its mainly optimus laptops, and people who try to use bumblebee :P [22:01] ikonia, youre right... [22:02] Guys I need my drivers [22:02] what happened now @ Chickenshadow [22:02] then install your drivers [22:02] I can't loaf my driver nouveau [22:02] How [22:03] And swrast [22:04] ikonia: yeah, it seems so... do you have any idea what to do with it? the whole line is: [22:04] [ 19.365797] systemd-udevd[915]: failed to execute '/bin/systemctl' '/bin/systemctl start --no-block nvidia-persistenced.service': No such file or directory [22:04] Chickenshadow, did you ever install nvidia drivers? maybe there is a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ that blacklists nouveau [22:04] loskutak: you need to find out what provides that unit and either a.) remove it to stop the error b.) add what it needs to give the missing file [22:04] ok, so, whoever suggested "xdotool" for adjusting bluetooth mouse sensitivity - wrong, I don't see such option [22:05] any other suggestions ? [22:05] loskutak: did you say you're missing /bin/systemctl ? [22:05] GNU really needs to update their documentation. If you use grub-rescue mode to change the variable settings. Run grub-install with no extra parameters to save the new settings. [22:05] that would have saved me 2 days of bullshit. [22:05] Um [22:05] akik: yes [22:05] DMJC: please don't swear [22:06] How do I know if it blacklists it? [22:06] sorry @ DMJC ..no shit .. i dont use grub [22:06] there's alternatives yanno [22:06] loskutak: i don't know how you accomplished that. maybe "sudo apt-get install --reinstall systemd" will fix it [22:07] xotu: please stop swearking [22:07] akik: he doesn't need to re-install systemd [22:07] Hi, I have been having a problem while trying to set up screen lock time and dimming as well. I have used the ubuntu settings on the control panel but no matter how much I change the settings. It still doesn't work. [22:07] akik: somebody told me it is not supposed to be there in 14.04? [22:07] ikonia: how else is he going to get /bin/systemctl back? [22:07] akik: it's not missing [22:07] loskutak: systemd is not used on 14.04 [22:08] shit [22:08] I have tried dconf settings and I still seem to have the same problem. [22:08] Wetes my drivers?? How do I install them? [22:09] ikonia: so the issue is that somebody upgraded the drivers package so that it is compatible only with newer ubuntu version? [22:09] loskutak: what package have you installed, from where ? [22:09] Hey there. So I set up tunnelbear VPN on mylaptop according to their guide, but I'm having issues getting a custom dns server to be used, so I'm running into dns issues [22:09] Chickenshadow, read the files in /etc/modprobe.d/ and check if they have the line "blacklist nouveau" in them, or something like that [22:09] how do I set up ubuntu 16.04 to use a user defined DNS server, even when using vpn? [22:10] i helped resolve 6 people's issues today but no one can resolve mine.. im done for the day [22:10] bbl [22:10] Chickenshadow, novueau should load by default if its installed and not blacklisted, (given that you have just an nvidia gpu installed) [22:11] ikonia: the issue started just by apt-get upgrade, I believe... then later I have purged nvidia* and bumblebee*. Now I have installed nvidia-367 nvidia-settings nvidia-prime [22:11] loskutak: apt-get upgrade will do nothing [22:11] loskutak: so you've installed package from somewhere that has a depedency on systemd [22:12] Yeah [22:12] loskutak, are you by chance using the ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa to get nvidia-367 ? [22:12] here's another bug I noticed - mouse sensitivity is normal on the login screen, and crazy high when logged in [22:12] Its not in blacklist [22:13] It can't load nouveau [22:13] dankan: I dont see that ppa in /etc/apt/sources.list.d [22:13] loskutak: that doesn't mean you've not used it at some point [22:13] loskutak, its ubuntu 16.10 or 16.04? [22:13] dankan: 04 [22:14] loskutak: 16.04 or 14.04 [22:14] How can I list my drivers [22:14] ikonia: well I have installed the driver freshly few minutes ago, so I thing it shouldn't be from that ppa [22:15] How [22:15] loskutak: a.) please confirm the exact ubuntu version b.) if you have used PPA's before - please say as just because you did something "now" doesn't mean there are not left overs from PPA's [22:15] Chickenshadow, check if you have xserver-xorg-video-nouveau installed - command is apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-nouveau === Enzo is now known as Guest68764 [22:17] ikonia: how to get the version? I have forgotten the command. I have used PPA's before [22:17] loskutak: lsb-release -a [22:18] It says policy: no command found [22:18] loskutak, try just switching to 361, or remove all nvidia packages to run in nouveau. If noveau will work you can try to install nvidia-361. If you are not sure which version of the drivers is for your gpu , search for linux drivers on nvidia's website. to check your gpu version run lspci | grep VGA and see the name in brackets () [22:19] does anyone know HOW to auto execute a command AFTER user login (Unity) ? [22:20] or how to permanently disable mouse acceleration [22:20] Chickenshadow, you don't have apt-cache? which ubuntu are you using [22:20] Ctrl alt f1 [22:20] seems like it gets auto enabled on login [22:20] Onepamopa, let me tell you [22:20] 16.04 64bit [22:20] Onepamopa, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mouse_acceleration see the bit "disabling mouse acceleration" [22:21] ikonia: it is 14.04.5 [22:21] if you are using evdev for the imput driver you need to place the file first file ,if you are using libinput you need to place the second file [22:21] loskutak: ok, so when telling people about your syste, make sure you share that info "04" won't cut it as there is 16.04, 14.04 and even 12.04 [22:21] dankan, "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/" ain't such folder [22:21] Onepamopa, but on ubuntu you place the files in /usr/share/X11/... [22:21] Ahh it works now [22:22] i was getting to that @ Onepamopa [22:22] exit [22:22] noticed )) [22:22] so its /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-mouse-accel.conf [22:23] to check if you are using evdev or libinput use xinput @ Onepamopa [22:23] Dankan it came up with dome stuff does that mean I have s driver? [22:23] Some [22:24] Chickenshadow, if its says that the installed version is (none) it means its not installed [22:24] ikonia: sorry, I have missed the question.. I thought dankan was asking if my version is 14.04 or 14.10, so I have replied just by 04 [22:24] can someone please help with teamviewer? [22:25] well, I will try to purge nvidia stuff again and try different version of the driver [22:25] OK I have it then [22:25] i need to settup sound for virtual dj wine application [22:25] Why foent steam launch then? === AndChat93396 is now known as ratbox [22:26] Can't [22:26] Chickenshadow, run steam from terminal, steam usually does not work for me on nouveau though :P [22:27] Yeah I did do steam in s terminal but it don't work [22:27] Onepamopa, also after you place the file you need to logout to see if it works ,forgot to mention that (but it is mentioned in arch wiki) [22:27] Hi [22:27] Chickenshadow, does it print any output error? [22:28] My ubuntu crashes every 5 minutes I have to reboot with the hardware. How to diagnostic it? [22:28] Hey there. So I set up tunnelbear VPN on mylaptop according to their guide, but I'm having issues getting a custom dns server to be used, so I'm running into dns issues [22:28] given package name, how can I check whether it will be installed from PPA? [22:28] how do I set up ubuntu 16.04 to use a user defined DNS server, even when using vpn? [22:28] 16.04 crashes many times... [22:28] be careful while moving to 16.04 [22:29] been on it for ages [22:29] ages??? [22:29] loskutak, apt-get policy package-name lists the package version and all versions from your repositories [22:29] never chrashed [22:29] was it not released recently? [22:29] vinoth: Well, it was the first OS I installed on it [22:29] vinoth: Well, the 16th of july [22:29] wait, no [22:29] april [22:30] or is it april 2016? [22:30] I know the name is pretty much the date it was released [22:30] I think 4th month year 2016 [22:30] dumle29: the version, not the name. [22:30] right [22:30] i was in 16, until two days back [22:30] moved to 15.10 again [22:31] I was quite lucky that 16.04 was released [22:31] !15.10 | vinoth [22:31] vinoth: Ubuntu 15.10 (Wily Werewolf) was the 23rd release of Ubuntu. Support ended on July 28th, 2016. See !eol, !eolupgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/wily [22:31] vinoth: currently supported releases are 14.04, 16.04 and 16.10 [22:31] Because aparrently 15.10 would've bricked my laptop [22:31] it's using a skylake cpu [22:31] i5 6600U [22:32] aren't we forcing users to upgrade [22:32] like the stupid windows does [22:32] no? [22:32] It's a bug in the linux kernel, it was rather big [22:32] 16.04 moved to a newer kernel [22:32] you mean in 15.10 [22:32] no? [22:33] as I understood, at the time of me installing ubuntu on my laptop, it was bricking laptops. Aparrantly I got lucky, and installed it a month or so after 16.04 released [22:33] can someone help me? [22:33] oh... cool [22:33] whats your problem deejayicy? [22:34] dankan, well, xinput doesn't show anything even remotely to evdev or libinput [22:34] i installed ubuntu and wine, the instaled virtual dj from it, but i need to setup sound for the headphones [22:35] does the 'router' field of the DHCP offer is the 'default gw' that will be used? [22:35] Onepamopa, if you use xinput, it will list devicses , you need to find your mouse and do a xinput --list-props X where X is your device ID (its listed by xinput earlier) [22:36] if it will spam evdev and some options , it means it uses evdev, if it will spam libinput and some options , it uses libinput @ Onepamopa [22:36] can you connect on my pc? [22:37] Onepamopa also , you can just check if xserver-xorg-input-libinput is installed, if its not , you are using evdev. Also evdev is the default one on any ubuntu install maybe except ubuntu-gnome from what i know [22:38] Onepamopa, (i just mention libinput because it is a possibility, also i like to install it myself because it works better with my sharkoon drakonia mouse. Also i think evdev with disabled acceleration is still kind of decelerating, its too slow compared to windows.) [22:39] anyone knows if the router field of the DHCP is intended for the gateway that route shows? [22:40] Onepamopa, also creating either of those configs wont mess anything up, you can always just remove them and go back to the original state. [22:40] dankan, finally got it working [22:40] thanks [22:41] these things should be made adjustable during the initial installation or available @ system settings (which for some reason they aren't) [22:41] b_p: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2132 [22:42] Onepamopa, you dont have mouse speed control in system-settings? [22:42] it doesn't mention the gateway [22:42] dankan, I have for the touchpad (which doesn't affect the bt mouse) [22:43] b_p: see section 3.5 [22:43] dankan, i read it but it doesn't mention the gateway, i need to know if the default gw that ubuntu defines is the same that reads in that field [22:43] can someone help me? please [22:43] Onepamopa, well i guess its a common bug with evdev drivers. I dont have such option on my desktop for my mouse, thats why i use libinput because it fixes it :P [22:44] Hello. I'm just wondering if someone could possibly help me also? [22:44] dankan, so many little annoying things that need to be fixed in order to make ubuntu better... [22:44] seems like nobody's interested in fixing them [22:44] which in itself is annoying... [22:44] Onepamopa, well i believe everyone is slowly switching to libinput [22:44] have to doing a backup to a network drive (windows drive share) , how to find it in terminal... [22:45] Dragoneye: You dont need to find it, you need to mount it. [22:45] Onepamopa, also this little thing is broken since gnome 3 :P i bet that if you run a live xubuntu from usb or cd you will be able to adjust mouse speed from the settings [22:45] bekks: have mounted is, cant find it [22:46] Dragoneye: See the output of "mount" and you will see where you mounted it. [22:47] i installed ubuntu and wine, the instaled virtual dj from it, but i need to setup sound for the headphones .... Can someone help me..please? [22:47] then* [22:47] Does anyone in here use Ubuntu Mate? I'm having an issue with getting my clock to display the correct timezone. [22:47] @deejayicy Do your headphones show up in PulseAudio Volume Control? [22:48] @jim-the-bear I have MATE on 15.10. What exactly is it doing wrongly? [22:48] Onepamopa if you think this is a big inconvenience consider that you cannot change mouse scroll speed at all in any gui except KDE (and i believe this still changes nothing) [22:49] i dont have pulse audio [22:49] incredible ! [22:49] OK, well it might just be called Volume Control or something similar. I assume you're on Unity? [22:49] i'm on default ubuntu [22:50] jim-the-bear: Dual booting Windows and Windows controls the hardware clock, maybe ? [22:50] OK, so then I believe it's called just Volume Control. Plug your headphones in and see if htey show up [22:50] hey guys [22:50] hey, what up [22:50] @ProficientWombat I'm using 16.04 in a virtual machine. The clock is getting progressively slower, and I can't find a way to get it to update with an Internet time source. [22:51] !ntp | jim-the-bear [22:51] jim-the-bear: Information about using and setting your computer's clock on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime - See https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/NTP.html for information on usage of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) [22:51] @jim-the-bear Woah, never heard of anything like that. Strange [22:54] [img]http://shrani.si/f/W/bQ/2VMsMzKt/screenshot-from-2016-11-.png[/img] [22:54] [url=http://shrani.si/?W/bQ/2VMsMzKt/screenshot-from-2016-11-.png][img]http://shrani.si/t/W/bQ/2VMsMzKt/screenshot-from-2016-11-.jpg[/img][/url] [22:54] Shrani.si [22:55] deejayicy: please stop that [22:56] bekks: Done! :-D Tnx! [22:56] @ubottu I just set it to my time zone, and the clock is still 2 hours and 10 minutes late. [22:56] so this is correct for here: http://shrani.si/f/W/bQ/2VMsMzKt/screenshot-from-2016-11-.png [22:56] And I just realized I may have just addressed a bot. I feel so incredibly foolish. [22:57] jim-the-bear: no need to feel foolish [22:57] jim-the-bear: set you clock, and setup NTP as well. [22:58] and this one other control panel for audio: http://shrani.si/f/R/KZ/1bbLe6k/screenshot-from-2016-11-.png [22:59] I just set it to my time zone, and the clock is still 2 hours and 10 minutes late. MATE doesn't appear to allow me to choose servers like the diagrams I was linked to. [22:59] so i need to setup audio for virtual dj over wine [23:00] jim-the-bear: you dont need to use MATE for configuring NTP. [23:01] so can someone connect over teamviewer or some software [23:01] @bekks I understand that. I'm just using the Ubuntu MATE as my OS. My problem is when I try to change the Date/Time in the system administration Date and Time menu, I'm not allowed to change servers. [23:02] jim-the-bear: Just configure NTP manually using the configuration file. [23:02] @bekks Can you help me get to that? [23:02] deejayicy, i know this is an Official Ubuntu Support Channel but i wouldn't let random people touch my pc with Teamviewer on your place. [23:03] not random just admins :) [23:03] jim-the-bear: Ubottu already gave you a link on how to do that. [23:03] or mods, or something [23:04] deejayicy, you are trying to make wine use alsa right? [23:04] deejayicy, try this https://askubuntu.com/questions/77210/how-to-change-the-default-audio-in-wine-to-alsa-only [23:05] i dont know if i have alsa or what alsa is [23:05] @bekks It doesn't tell me where to put the new lines [23:05] Did they ever change alsa to allow more than one program to use it at a time? [23:05] @bekks Or doesn't it matter? [23:05] jim-the-bear: It does :) [23:05] jim-the-bear: The article tells you exactly what to do. [23:06] Rarrikins, yes they implemented a mixer into it. [23:06] oh i missed the link...thanks [23:06] ? [23:06] deejayicy, try to install the virtualdj with playonlinux [23:06] ok [23:07] deejayicy, if wine is messing with you and you have no sound i guess it should be an easier way to set it up. wine is really a picky software, and to be honest you shouldnt rely on ubuntu support to help people with it [23:07] can anybody help me my wireless connection keeps getting disconnected! [23:07] ok [23:10] Hey all, my friend just wiped a Windows 8 pre-install and installed Xubuntu 16.10, but now his PC just boots to "Start PXE over IPV4/IPV6" and then continues to the HP PC Diagnostic UEFI utility. I thought we disabled Secure Boot, how can we fix this? [23:10] Rarrikins, at least the last time i was able to remove pulseaudio without purging most of my DE i was positive you could use alsa with multiple applications =P [23:11] Is it possible to get Google Drive working on Ubuntu? [23:12] dankan: Ahh, I see. Thanks. [23:13] interesting folks on here lol [23:13] just had a 1 hour chat with a muslim guy; too bad he decided to go [23:19] Hi again! How can i see all instaled programs in ubuntu?

[23:55] what desktop environment are you using [23:56] unity [23:56] The one that comes with ubuntu [23:56] I want to find the folder where it's located so i can look at the codes/configs and learn from that [23:57] So, I have a problem where I install 16.04.1 server, boot, everything is fine, but if I reboot it won't mount the root filesystem [23:57] This happens regardless of how many times I reinstall - the 2nd boot always fails [23:57] nbastin: And which mnessage do you get at that point?
