The minecraft launcher runs fine but then I try to launch the game I get this crash report: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23439491/ From what I have gathered online it can be caused because xrandr gives multiple output opeions to java or something like that.

[00:38] hexafraction, if you use iptables to intercept the ports, those that are DROPped respond with Request timed out [00:38] those that are REJECTed respond with destination port unreachable [00:39] Does that require manually specifying ports? [00:39] hexafraction, yes, iptables is the packet filter in th ekernel [00:39] Or can I blanket-statement it so that any port that isn't being listened to by a program does not respond with REFUSED? [00:40] hexafraction, I am not an iptables expert, but I believe you can set the default policy to be either drop or reject [00:40] OK, thank you [00:40] I'll look into that approach. [00:40] hexafraction, but you do understand if you set such a policy, you need to open the ports you do want [00:40] Hmm [00:41] it's kind of like.....reject everything....except.... === Beng_Beng2 is now known as Beng_Beng === ilfantomas_ is now known as ilfantomas === Liz is now known as Guest88263 === Beng_Beng2 is now known as Beng_Beng [00:48] so I use youtube-dl to rip a 4K trailer to my computer, it plays it across all the monitors (3).

How can I troubleshoot this? [02:25] If anyone has advice on defeating the blinking cursor, please let me know [02:29] cash: Graphic's driver ? Can you boot to grub menu ? And if so what results booting with the boot parameter ' nomodeset ' ? [02:30] Bashing-om this occurs after a failed resume on Nouveau (nvidia card) [02:30] system boots to a blinking cursor every boot after this failed resume happends [02:31] grub cant boot a recovery kernel either [02:31] still goes to blinking cursor [02:31] its like, nothing loads and there is no opportunity for nomodeset to show me whats up [02:32] cash: Encryption ? where /swap contents are not reloaded ? .. Just as a thought . [02:33] Thanks [02:33] No encryption [02:33] Im kinda a nob -what do you mean about the swap contents? [02:34] with recovery mode, nomodeset is on but nothing occurrs and no text shows up [02:35] I created a small swap partition on /dev/md2, how do I tell ubuntu to turn swap off on that partition if its already mounted as swap [02:37] cash: " failed resume": the state of the system is in /swap, when resuming then the contemnts of /swap are written back . Not to say this is the issue . just a possibility . [02:37] easy [02:39] which is the more stable ubuntu flavor? I'm using xubuntu, but it seems to broke with very easy [02:46] ts1k: All are stable on mainline hardware . What is your hardware or what are you doing the breaks the system ? [02:48] Bashing-om thank you - how would I clear that out on my next boot? You may be onto something since the system is frozen upon this failed resume === ktomz is now known as bitch [02:50] cncr04s: sudo swapoff /dev/md2 [02:51] hi, i need some help. i need to make a partition bootable. im on a Ubuntu live [02:51] That will turn it off right now. If you want your system never to use /dev/md2 for swap again, you have to edit /etc/fstab and remove the line pertaining to /dev/md2. [02:52] dekatch: Often, setting the bootable flag on a partition is not enough to fix a problem with booting. What problem are you trying to solve? [02:53] erpo_ i want to install Windows ffrom it [02:54] I don't understand. Do you mean that you want to install Windows on that partition? [02:55] no. i want to copy my setup files on it. and then boot from it [02:55] boot setup and then install [02:56] cash: IF and only IF a failure is upon a resume , then that configuration is highly suspect. Do the UUIDs agree ' sudo blkid ; cat /etc/fstab ' ? [02:56] checking [02:57] I typed the command - which partition are you interested in? [02:57] lots of output [02:58] Bashing-om Sda1, Sda2 and Sda3 all have different uuid's [02:58] what does that mean? [02:59] guess I'm kinda screwed here. can't open a single partition. meh. nvm I'll install from dvd :/ [02:59] anyhow thanks [03:00] Bashing-om: my hardware is a new gaming laptop asus i7 6700 Nvidia [03:00] cash: UUIDs are unique identifieres, so yes each will be different . what you wamt is that in the blkid output the UUIDs match what is in the fstab file . [03:01] Bashing-om checking now.. [03:01] Bashing-om: at first it recognized pretty much all the hardware, which was very good... [03:02] ts1k: i7 is no problem . Nvidia graphics .. may have to install the propritary driver . [03:02] Bashing-om: but after removing some broken packages, like qgis and grass (both of geo science) problems started... [03:02] Bashing-om can I send you a private chat with the output of sudo blkid ; cat /etc/fstab? [03:03] I apologize but i do not know what im looking for [03:03] cash: No .. use a pasrebin site .. such that all here may be able to contribute . [03:03] Got it one sec will do [03:03] the windows disk cant be mounted and the camera software (cheese) start to fail on startup [03:04] Bashing-om http://pastebin.com/eCV1CEZe here it is [03:05] ts1k: Well in linux , we break it - we get to keep the pieces - and put it back together , what results ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo apt -f install ' ? [03:08] Bashing-om: I have to say that I am more happy with this distro that I thoght, I have been using Gentoo for many years, but now I dont have the time to setup all this things [03:08] cash: UUIDs are not the problem .. got enough space on swap ? what shows ' free ' in a pastebin . [03:08] Yeah I have enough space in swap - same size as my ram [03:09] ts1k: I too am a convert to 'buntu .. my last was slackware . [03:09] Bashing-om This is a failure only on resume when using Nouveau graphics on my computer (macbook with geforce 9400m) [03:09] Bashing-om: so I have to say that it was very impresive how xubuntu recognices almost everything of my hardware laptop :) [03:10] cash: Sorry end of my thoughts, as I have no experience with suspending; others here will have to advise . [03:11] ok thanks for your help [03:11] I really appreciate it [03:12] Bashing-om: hahaha I was using Slackwre from 7 to 10, then OpenBSD and Gentoo, and now I just need my machine running as fast as posible, so that why I choosed Ubuntu [03:13] ts1k: What is the graphic's hardware ; show in a pastebin - lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D' - . [03:13] @ Bashing-om I do agree that my configuration is highly suspect. This bug I mentioned has caused me to need to pull the hard drive and re-image it on a different machine. Couldnt get a USB or DVD to boot an installer and fix things. Its like it was bricked. [03:14] Bashing-om: no problem with my graphics, I'm using the propietary driver of Nvidia, and is working fine [03:15] ts1k: Let me give ya a bit of asvise on "fast" //ot is a minimal install .. and if ya want a GUI may I suggest xfce4 . I nulti-boot on this box .. and the minimal is nt far the fastest . Almost as fast on this spinner as xubuntu is in a SSD . [03:15] Bashing-om: Nvidia Geforce GTX 960m [03:16] ts1k: 367 version driver ? see: http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/108586/en-us . [03:17] Bashing-om: let me see... [03:18] Bashing-om: the driver is 361.42 [03:19] ts1k: the (m) is this one : http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/108586/en-us still the 367 version is what nvidia recommends . [03:20] ts1k: 361 should work /. but maybe try the 367 and see if 367 works the better ?? [03:21] Bashing-om: mmmm, I'm not sure, dont like to change what is already working fine :P [03:25] Bashing-om: I'm downloding it right now, I'll give it a try [03:25] ts1k: That is fine ,, you did say the priority was "fast" and fast is a minimal install .. build your own . [03:28] ts1k: remember to purge the old driver .. and also remove the old /etc/X11/Xorg.conf if used . If this is hybrid graphics, ya want to also install nvidia-prime to control the graphic's sets .

I have a machine where init is trying to make the volume groups active *before* cryptsetup has unlocked the partition--which obviously doesn't work. [03:58] yes I had a slight problem when I have 2 or more discs [03:59] That's true. I have two disks too. [03:59] i mean new to hosting and cloud server. I want to use glpi inventory app to be accessible online [04:00] lastlog linocisco [04:00] ilk, How did you end up changing the order around? [04:01] i never did figure it out . . . [04:01] it would just say the disc was unavailable [04:01] Bashing-om, what do you mean? i didn't see any log history to go back [04:01] ilk, In my case it fails to unmount a partition I need to boot. [04:01] ouch === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo [04:02] My workaround was to go to recovery mode in grub. [04:02] From there, it at least shows me whats going on so I can type the password and. [04:04] I can type the password from there and it unlocks, but I can see where it tried to make the LVM partitions active too soon. [04:04] The funny part is it then tries again on the LVM and of course succeeds at making everything active. [04:05] So I tell it to resume normal boot at the two dialogs, and then it comes the rest of the way up. [04:08] A few months ago, one of the updates messed up the grub prompting for the unlock password. [04:08] I figured out I could just type the password to the empty gray screen and it would work anyway. :) [04:08] I have a (hopefully) quick question about updating the kernel in my version of Ubuntu. [04:09] I'm not new to Linux, but I'm a recent "use it full time" convert. [04:09] I've never had to update the kernet b/c I always assumed apt update/upgrade would handle that. [04:09] But I'm having an issue which apparently is fixed by this. [04:10] linocisco: Oh. that was a typo on my part - to the server - to see if there was a former query . [04:10] What's the worst that can happen if I update the kernel and something blows up? [04:10] hey guys. I can't install nginx on ubuntu:14.04. http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/n/nginx/nginx_1.4.6-1ubuntu3.5_all.deb [04:10] 404 not found [04:11] http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/n/nginx/ [04:11] I'm not sure which you're after, but there's the list. [04:11] * of what's available [04:11] anyone know what to do if cryptsetup password prompt doesn't show up? I only get a prompt and echo. Have to boot in recovery to get cryptsetup up to decrypt and boot. [04:12] ajg4M3l5: One can always boot the former kernel if there are problems wiht the latest installed kernel . [04:12] other kernel works [04:12] Ok cool, thanks. [04:12] ingive, I am literally working through a similar problem right now. [04:12] ah ok, an apt update fixed the issue [04:13] terafl0ps, it's a black screen with prompt for you? [04:13] I usually run this routinely: sudo apt clean && sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt autoremove [04:13] Up until a couple days ago when I applied the last kernel updates, I would get a broken grub prompt for the password. [04:14] I could type the password there, but it never worked. [04:14] Yeah, that's what I'm trying to avoid since I've never done a manual kernal update. [04:14] If I rebooted, I would get a traditional grub menu. [04:14] i don't even remember doing a kernel update [04:14] From there, if I chose "Ubuntu" I would get only a gray screen. [04:15] Funny part is if I ignored the gray screen and just typed my password, it worked and unlocked. :) [04:16] i think I am going to install new kernel [04:16] I actually kind of liked it because if you didn't know what was happening, someone else would have no idea how to how to even boot my machine. [04:17] Anyway, this afternoon, that stopped working. [04:17] Now I can get in if I do the same thing, but choose recovery mode from grub menu. [04:18] Recovery mode shows me all of the text on the screen from the init scripts running so I can see that it's failing because it's trying to make the LVM partitions active before cryptsetup runs to unlock the disk. [04:19] Ingive, I am on 4.4.0-45 right now. [04:20] does it work if you boot from old kernel? [04:21] I think it did for me but my drivers are broken there [04:21] No. [04:21] I got stuck at a gray screen and it wouldn't unlock. [04:22] recovery shows me the unlock screen though but regular boot is just a prompt and echo [04:26] are linux and ubuntu essentially the same [04:26] Ingive, the normal unlock screen with the image of the circle with squiggly lines in the middle never ever works for me. [04:26] for terminal shell [04:26] breezy_, Ubuntu is one flavor/distribution of LInux [04:26] breezy_, yes, by default almost every distribution uses the same shell, bash [04:27] * rifter tries something [04:27] im brand spanking new to ubuntu... can someone tell me whats a good resource [04:27] !info bash [04:27] bash (source: bash): GNU Bourne Again SHell. In component main, is required. Version 4.3-15ubuntu1 (yakkety), package size 577 kB, installed size 1560 kB [04:27] using it for development [04:27] Ingive, When I see that, I have to press alt+ctrl+del to reboot. Then, for whatever reason, I get a grub menu. [04:27] not sure if im gonna need servers? [04:27] terafl0ps, that's quite odd [04:27] hmm.. my info is pretty outdated as far as linux programming books go [04:28] ya i need somethng current [04:28] breezy_, oh well in Linux every system is capable of having the same kind of software [04:28] Yeah, so basically I have to reboot once to get a grub menu so I can choose advanced options to go to recovery mode. [04:28] I do know that as far as websites go, stackoverflow.com has programming advice for any kind of system [04:28] do you know if it's plymouth that is failing? [04:29] a lot of books/tutorials say "linux server basics" [04:29] it's a site where programmers talk [04:29] are they talking about how to use the linux operating system or is linux server a completely different thing [04:29] i want to learn how to use the operating sys [04:30] yeah, every linux system runs some software that is a server - for instance Xorg (the graphics server) or MySQL (a Relational Database Management Server) [04:30] namecheap.com vs godaddy vs 1and1hosting? [04:31] linux operating system is the same, there is no distinction [04:31] in terms of support 247, what is best? [04:31] i still dont understand rifter... i know what mysql is but why would it be running that randomly [04:31] for bash programming, there is an Oreilly book, but the man page for bash has essentially the same information [04:32] so what i want to learn is how to bash right [04:32] not how to run a server [04:32] breezy_, some software relies on MySQL to store data. Since it can run on any linux system, developers tend to use it as a dependancey [04:32] dependancy [04:33] oh, well then I would recommend the Oreilly book. In general, if there is an Oreilly book for something it's a pretty good if not the best resource [04:33] orly [04:34] even if its slightly older? [04:34] i love o'reilly books problem is some are a bit old so im hesitant to use them [04:34] well, most of the stuff that is in shell programming is evry very old [04:34] any reason why Ubuntu would have an issues creating a symlink? [04:34] it hasn't changed, and that is for a good reason [04:35] looks like this one wasn't updated since 2005, but bash prohgramming has not changed in that time https://www.amazon.com/Learning-bash-Shell-Programming-Nutshell/dp/0596009658/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1478493222&sr=8-1&keywords=oreilly+bash [04:35] hmm.. probbaly should have trimmed that url [04:35] I run "ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/file /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/file", and when I do anything with the symlink, it's not there. "cat" says it can't find it, "vim" says it's an empty file [04:35] the pocket reference is newer [04:35] I've never encountered this before [04:36] "ls -al" says it's a symlink to "/etc/nginx/sites-available/file" though [04:36] Gorian, why are you using a symbolic link for a file [04:36] "should I be using a symlink for a file" was not my question [04:36] take out the -s and the file will be a normal link and can be used in any way [04:36] well, that is my answer [04:36] good for you [04:37] i dono 2005 :. [04:38] ur right but i dont want to be missing anything [04:38] probabl gonna go for something more current [04:38] you're not. bash programming has bene the same for over 20 years [04:38] the bash shell was actually made to be compatible with shell programming from .. oh, 30-40 years ago [04:39] https://www.amazon.ca/Pro-Bash-Programming-Second-Scripting/dp/1484201221/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1478493510&sr=8-10&keywords=bash [04:39] is this good? [04:39] I dunno .. I haven't read that one [04:40] but it's probably fine [04:40] ok thanks rifter [04:41] you have to understand - since core systems rely on the stability of shell scripts, the methodology behind them can't really change without breaking everything else. Some individual behavior might change, but overall it has to stay consistent [04:41] idk what was up with that. Deleted the original file and the symlink, recreated both, and now it's working. [04:43] that does seem odd [04:43] is btrfs a good option instead of ext4? does anyone uses it daily? [04:44] breezy_, by the way, the C programming book I used to use is from the 70s but that is what we used in class in the 90s and some people still use that style. [04:45] but it's probably better to get a more recent C book than that, to address some ideas that have come up since then [04:47] anyway, that bash book you found is probably fine [04:47] I selected few things via synaptic to upgrade but how do i get it upgrade? [04:48] funkyheadgirl, you click the apply button - the check mark [04:52] i cant press apply it's grey and cant be clickd [04:59] funkyheadgirl, that is strange - once you select stuff for upgrade it should be clickable. let me check something [05:00] also said this [05:00] "Starting without administrative priveleges [05:00] You will not be able to apply any changes. But you can still export the marked changes or create a download script for them." === _backup is now known as BackUP [05:00] funkyheadgirl, aha that is why then.. I was going to suggest checking that [05:01] well, what you want to do is export those then, and restart using : gksu synaptic [05:01] that will ask for your password and you will be able to apply [05:04] looks like my system is having problems or I would be able to give you more specific instructions. But yeah, just starting synaptic like that you can pick and apply the changes [05:04] the only reason to export and import would be if you didn't remember what you picked [05:05] lemme try that === Kirito___ is now known as Kirito_ === SonikkuAmerica is now known as Guest10885 [05:12] hi gksu synaptic worked just fine, thank you everyone! [05:12] hooray! [05:12] wuhuu! [05:14] Gorian, sorry about earlier.. I have a headache and am not thinking well tonight. What I meant to say is that in some circumstances if you do a symlink to a file, an action will be done on that symlink instead of the actual file. That would be a reason vi would act weird, maybe. I've only ever used symlinks for directories or over different filesystems [05:18] rifter, no problem. I hope you feel better ^.^ [05:19] Ingive, I made some progress, but I don't know if this helps you... [05:19] i solved it [05:19] i solved it buy removing quiet and splash only having nosplash in cmdline default in grub config, then updated grub and initramfs [05:19] I'm just too used to self-righteous assholes in IRC. ask a question about using ZFS "oh, why would anyone want to use ZFS? You don't need that!" "Well, I want to cache lots of data and setup a vdev including an SSD to have decently fast caching" [05:20] I had to remove the "splash" option from my /etc/default/grub on the default linux startup parameters. [05:20] haha [05:20] "oh, why would anyone want that? It wouldn't be faster than WAN" "Okay, but I just wanted to know how to install it on this particular OS/appliance, not whether or not you think I should use caching" "Oh, no one wants to do that, don't do it" [05:20] "... thanks for the help..." [05:24] hello all [05:24] I have an extremely out of the ordinary question regarding networking. I need to bridge several Bluetooth PANs to a Ethernet card. Bluetooth connection don't show up in the list of devices to add to the bridge. What should I do? [05:24] my @reboot lines from crontab are not being executed on next boot ? [05:24] @Haris Hello. :D [05:25] is that normal on 14.04 lts ? [05:25] No idea. Never used chrontab. [05:25] I put things that need to autostart in init.d [05:26] that would be only for root. I'm talking about stuff that needs to be run as a normal user [05:27] Add it as a startup job. There's a way to add it to all user's Startup applications list. [05:27] I dont' remember how though, but soem applications, (Skype, etc) do this when installed. [05:28] Or put it in /etc/profile [05:28] Which is a file that executes at login of each user account. [05:29] It sets up enviroment variables, etc, and functions similar as ./bashrc except it's global. [05:29] But any bash script can be put in there\ [05:29] Appended to the file I mean [05:29] Gorian, yeah, I realized after I said it that that was what I sounded like, and I hate those people as well [05:30] TheNH813, Interesting question. I don't think you can do that. [05:30] http://superuser.com/questions/934372/bluetooth-over-ip [05:32] terafl0ps: Hm..... Interesting [05:35] TheNH813, Taking a couple steps back, what would you ultimately like to accomplish? Depending on the hardware you're using on the PAN side, there may be way easier ways to do it. [05:35] terafl0ps: Oh.... I completely missed the mark. Ad-Hoc Bluetooth PAN is my solution. [05:36] Surely that's an easier way to connect a bunch of devices to each other. [05:36] rifter, it happens ^.^ [05:36] And then just give one device internet. [05:36] Is there a reason you can't use wi-fi? [05:37] But has it been implemented..... hmmmm..... [05:37] terafl0ps: They'l be close together, so I though I could cut power consumption. [05:37] Using BT 4.0LE. [05:38] A mesh network of sorts. It wouldn't need Internet all the time, just occasionally. [05:39] How close? Is a wired link an option? [05:39] example of my crontab lines that are not executing on reboot are like -----> @reboot cd /home/user1/scripts/one-ofthe-scripts || exit; rm -f running-script.lck; nohup ./run-script1.sh 1>>info.log 2>>error.log & [05:40] terafl0ps: Possibly. [05:40] If I use USB>Ethernet adaptors on the ARM boards and connect a router. As they only have Wireless. [05:41] Or implement my own propreitary network protocol over the IO pins. I installed Ubuntu on a bunch of ARM boards and it's workign great so far. [05:41] Haris: Is each script user specific? [05:42] Because the user must be logged in for such a command to work. [05:42] all thsoe 5 scripts are under the same user. but its a normal user. its not root [05:42] doesn't crontab run them on @reboot automatically ? === surya is now known as Tsurya [05:42] hello [05:42] ..on next+ @reboot.. [05:44] TheNH813, I have an Android tablet with the world's worst wi-fi transceiver, and that's pretty much what I did. I found a micro USB to USB A female OTG cable and plugged in a cheap 10/100 Ethernet adapter. [05:46] Hm..... I think I'd just implement Ethernet or my own protocol in Python over the I/O wires in that case. I got 40 pins and I'm only using 20 for other stuff. 20 Ethernet adaptors with be expensive. Wires and code is free to me. :P Thanks for the help and suggestions. [05:46] Haris: Do you have any other users requiring a script. [05:46] not yet [05:47] Would you need that in the future? [05:47] may be. not sure [05:47] TheNH813, does it support SPI on any of the pins? [05:48] terafl0ps: Yes. Hardware SPI on some and software SPI/I2C on all of them. I was thinking of that or software Ethernet. [05:48] I have an odd task for my litle Ubuntu servers/nodes to complete, so I guess I need and equally odd network. [05:48] XD [05:49] Haris: Give me a minute. Think I may have a solution. [05:49] tyt [05:50] Haris: Does creating a autostart for a .sh file sound like a valid option to you? [05:50] This can be user specific if desired. [05:51] ofcourse. I'm writing one now [05:52] What I would reccommend then, is to store the startup script in the user's home folder, and create a .desktop shortcut file in ~/.local/share/applications. IT then shows up (just for that user) in the "Autostart Applications" settings. [05:53] That folder is dedicated to creating program shortcuts on a per-user basis, and you can add them to startup liek any normal program. [05:53] TheNH813, I am definitely not an electrical engineer and I haven't done any real embedded systems development, but I was watching this video the other day where a guy was clustering Orange Pi boards and had a similar idea to use SPI for Ethernet connectivity. http://www.eevblog.com/forum/blog/eevblog-934-raspberry-pi-supercomputer-cluster-part-1/ [05:55] hmm === surya is now known as Guest18823 [05:57] Ah, saw that vid, COMPLETELY forgot about it. That guy is David Jones, I definitely know who he is, and I watch a lot of his videos. I could likely do something similar, but an even simpler method. I could create a parallel databus over SPI and write a scheduler to prevent conflicts. Similar to how the older PCI (not PCIe) bus works. I have some food for thought now, I'm sure I'l figure it out. Thanks. [05:58] One step closer to finishing my Ubuntu powered cluster. [05:59] Haris: I discovered that /home//.local/share/applications folder when I figured out where Wine put application shortcuts. Came in handy many times I needed to autostart custom programs stored in the user's home folder. [06:00] this is for .. auto starting stuff .. on next reboot ? [06:00] hi [06:01] hi [06:01] hi [06:01] Haris: Yes, but you'l have to check whether the system was just rebooted within the script though. [06:02] how ? [06:02] uptime ? [06:04] Haris: That's one way, but there are others as well. Such as creating a subfolder folder in a publicly writinge folder such as /tmp that gets it's contents erased at shutdown or reboot. Simply create a file in there when the script runs, and every time the script executes, check for it's presence. If it dosen't exist, it means a reboot jsut occured. [06:06] Simply put, create a system job that clears out a folder at every bootup or shutdown. Then make the script you want to run create a marker/flag file in that place, it could even log stats there. Named something like username.script.alreadyrun. Pretty simple, should be only a few lines and a new system task in init.d.. [06:06] To handle the deletion of all the flag files at startup/shutdown [06:07] That's what I do for that kind of thing, a bit archaic, but gets the job done simply without fancy configs. Puppy Linux uses this a lot as well if I remember correctly. [06:09] hmm [06:11] Haris: Well, I gotta go work on something. I may return, may not. Good luck with your task.

As I recall, one of the first steps in compiling the kernel is to create a .config file by reading the existing kernel. [07:52] WeiJunLi, that .config is the file you edit and use to compile the new kernel [07:53] WeiJunLi, I think the command is 'make config' or 'make menu-config'....but that is very old knowledge so check it out [07:53] th0r: did you use kasan ? [07:54] WeiJunLi, nope. I played with compiling the kernel back when it was almost necessary to do so....many MANY years ago [07:56] but all that is off-topic here. won't be long someone will mention that [07:56] th0r: sorry where should i do that make config [07:56] WeiJunLi: see the link from ubottu [07:57] WeiJunLi, as I recall, you clone the kernel source directory, then do that command in the new copy.

[09:36] the point is that, this command is run in parallel by two processes without any synchronization, but it doesnt happen that log.txt is not complete, which I expect.

[13:07] even after reboot i'm not running it as root [13:07] id wager running as root would've worked, sounds like you ran into some ulimit problems [13:07] aah yeah thats quite possible [13:08] I'm processing tick data files.. 100million of them to be preceise [13:08] so creating/deleteing files frequently.. [13:08] that would cause ulimit issues rt? [13:10] it could, you might need to modify ulimits for that user accordingly [13:12] xanvincent, hmm seems like a bigger issue than i thought.. i could also be running out of iNodes [13:18] Hi. I can`t login to GDM after an update. I have the same problem described here, but couldn`t understand the solution. Can anyone help?

[13:31] last week I upgraded to ubuntu 16.10 on my Oracle VM [13:32] is there some trick to making Ubuntu realise it has two monitors connected? the 'Monitors' section of the settings area only shows one... but my onboard intel graphics supports two (one on DP and one on VGA) and I have two connected. [13:32] now, when I insert a pendrive and select it in the menu, nothing happens [13:32] is there something I need to do? [13:32] (select it in the USB menu as a device in the VM) [13:34] marcoagpinto: I assume you've checked that the guest additions are installed? [13:34] geirha: after the upgrade I need to reinstall the guest additions? [13:35] I had 16.04 and upgraded to 16.10 [13:36] yeah, the guest additions should be updated accordingly, but it's the first thing I'd check when having problems with things that guest additions are needed for [13:38] what packages does ubuntu uses in order to render fonts better than other distros? [13:38] geirha: I am reinstalling the guestadditions [13:39] :) [13:39] hey there, im having probems with hdmi out put it goes off ramdonly and turns back on again... [13:39] no idea what it is [13:39] ive tried with xset but didnt help [13:41] I have installed ubuntu 16.04 and am fighting the bootmenu right now... just used boot-repair and uploaded to pastebin... which pastebin does boot repair load too_ [13:42] i pressed return while tzping and its gone [13:45] geirha: It still doesn't work :(((((((( [13:55] anyone recommend a program to edit the tags of .wma files? === meles1 is now known as meles [13:58] or altenratively is there an easy way to convert .wma to some other file-type [14:03] My nvidia graphics card isnt working after a kernel update.

[14:06] ubuntu231, x86_64 [14:07] Hi, seems I finally found a solution to my sound problem: changing order of sound card detection at startup. Found it here: cat /proc/asound/modules . In cas it can help troubleshooting other's problem. [14:07] Southern_Gentlem: thanks! Do you know if I'll need a driver for the nividia card or an add on for heat management? [14:07] /set buffers.look.hotlist_counter on [14:08] I can't get passed the login screen after a kernel update on Ubuntu. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with my graphics card, as the new screen resolution indicates something is clearly wrong there, but i do see my wallpaper(it isnt a black screen or anything). I put my password in, and it attempts to login, but it brings me right back to login. === precise|snek is now known as precise [14:18] Hi all [14:19] I'm trying to setup elasticsearch on an Ubuntu 14.04 machine. The installation went all (apart from some warning messages regarding locale settings) but I can't manage to start it. [14:20] I found all the files that were supposed to be created upon installation, except the the log file. the start script will not provide an error if the daemon fails to start, so I have to rely on the log file, which, in my case, hasn't been created. [14:21] if anyone tried to install it, succeeded but had the same problems, I would thank for some suggestions [14:21] using the oracle java not the open jdk [14:22] To register [14:23] I have a file you want to do [14:23] Help pleade [14:24] I am on a Sony Vaio Laptop with Windows 7 [14:24] What version do you want jdk [14:24] I want to have ubuntu as dual (second) os [14:24] Hey.

[14:39] What packages does ubuntu uses in order to render fonts better than other distros? [14:40] de-facto: wayland + plasma is an option [14:40] although you should be able to get X11 running [14:40] queen-tonic: what's the problem? [14:41] its so unstable for me on Xenial [14:41] it loops on login manager [14:41] sponge: its probably just the ubuntu font family itself [14:42] although infinality provides the BEST font rendering found anywhere [14:42] i had this on a friends laptop too couldnt resolve it just a reinstall helped === marcoagpinto is now known as marcoag_stressed [14:42] seems to originate from xenial repos sonehow [14:42] de-facto: apt purge ubuntu-desktop && apt install ubuntu-desktop [14:43] i am on ubuntu gnome [14:43] xanvincent, I've heard that ubuntu/canonical use patented "technology" regarding font rendering. I was wondering if they're using infinality or something else. [14:43] well whatever package [14:43] they're not using infinality [14:43] although you can install it [14:43] ubuntu's rendering is good, but infinality is better [14:43] I've read that infinality can break the system and harm wine functioning [14:44] wine fonts are fix-able [14:44] ive had no issues with it, but i just run ubuntu-server these days. [14:44] xanvincent, fixable through terminal/coding? [14:44] so i dont mess with fonts anymore really [14:44] wine configs [14:45] xanvincent, What are you using now as desktop? [14:45] sponge: Arch. [14:46] xanvincent, Interesting. My wonder regarding fonts was because I was contemplating trying manjaro. And there I read that it can breat the system [14:47] You use default font settings on Arch? === precise is now known as ShiaLaBeouf [14:47] does not work to reinstall gdm or ubuntu gnome desktop [14:48] sponge no, I installed infinality [14:48] manjaro is a good way to ease into arch [14:48] their xfce product is pretty stable these days [14:49] xanvincent, I was aiming for kde :S [14:49] xanvincent, What settings do you use for infinality? windows-#? osx? linux? [14:50] bye [14:51] I have custom settings I've tweaked, but the infinality or osx configs are really good starts [14:51] sponge: plasma is fine, i just don't classify it as "stable" :) [14:53] xanvincent, Yeah, I hope it will become more stable in time. Does one need to install extra fonts from an osx system in order to use the osx config? [14:55] Some one please help [14:55] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/qJnn3CWt/irccloudcapture2140719414.jpg [14:55] no [14:55] I shinked sda4 [14:55] you dont, its just "osx-like" settings [14:56] *shrinked [14:56] to make the font rendering resemble the thick antialiased stuff you see in macos [14:56] although if on arch or manjaro, install and use the infinality-tweaked font faces too. [14:56] Now I have 100gb free space but it shows as unusable [14:56] Anything wrong? [14:57] probably needs to be formatted, queen-tonic [14:57] did you shrink your windows partition using the windows partition manager? [14:57] queen-tonic: i'd guess you're hitting the 4 partition limit on MS-DOS partition tables :( [14:58] xanvincent: no with ubuntu install [14:58] What shall I do? [14:59] yeah you're in a hard place because you need the 4th partition in order to install any other OSes [14:59] How do I do that [15:00] I thought ubuntu install wpuld handle that [15:00] Shall I revert [15:00] yeah but ubuntu isnt going to delete or move your data [15:00] Hey guys, I have a Ubuntu 14.04 desktop computer (w/ Nvidia graphics) that doesn't have display anymore on boot. I have access to tty1/2/.. but no GUI starting.. any thoughts ? thank you [15:00] you need to move the data from your 4th part to the 3rd, and then remove the 4th partition [15:00] Hello guys, I have a very weird situation, I am using Docker with Ubuntu (the docker container is running jenkins if that is relevant), In order for the docker to run correctly i had to mount certain shared libraries on ubuntu to get docker to run correctly, one of those libraries is /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libapparmor.so.1 ... It has been working great for months, but i just upgraded the jenkins image and it turned /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu [15:00] directory [15:01] sauvage, why do you need those libs outside of your Docker setup ? [15:01] Xanvincent why? [15:02] The docker Image of Jenkins needs to use the host shared libraries, so i had to mount them [15:02] well the docker container rather [15:02] really ? [15:02] yea, there is a huge forum post specifically about the libapparmor [15:02] Can't we just shrink the sda4 and create a new one with that free space [15:02] Not sure why when i upgraded the jenkins image, it turned that shared library into an empty directory... [15:02] queen-tonic: ms-dos formatted disks only support 4 primary partitions [15:03] you currently have 3 windows partitions + the "hidden" boot partition for windows [15:03] Oh I see [15:03] I dont think I got any on mine [15:03] sauvage, I don't see any extra deps for jenkins Docker [15:03] Will it be fine if I just click revert? [15:03] but the installer isnt going to touch your data, you have to do that part. [15:03] (16.04) why wont my usb devies show up in vbox? Istalled the guest-additions and the extension pack and the USB 2.0 seems to be ok under device manager [15:03] yeah it should be [15:04] what version of ubuntu are you on? [15:04] Ok ı will revert and cancel [15:04] installed* [15:04] Than handle it later [15:04] sounds good, queen-tonic [15:04] sync [15:05] Xanvincent I did reert but its still there [15:05] I need to figure out how to get /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libapparmor.so.1 back to normal, do i need to download that file? or how does that work? [15:05] sauvage, 14.04.5 [15:05] (16.04) why wont my usb devies show up in vbox? Istalled the guest-additions and the extension pack and the USB 2.0 seems to be ok under device manager in the windows 7 guest [15:05] it turned that file into a directory, i don't know why or how that happened.. [15:06] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/LMpZ1eQk/irccloudcapture-687503711.jpg [15:06] sauvage, https://github.com/SvenDowideit/dockerfiles/issues/17 [15:06] sauvage, try : ls -la /lib/........-gnu/ [15:06] its likely that just the so.1 is not existing anymore [15:06] So my computer is for some reason not using my main monitor as it should, It shows my second monitor than mirrors it on my first [15:06] maybe you could juste "ln -s" [15:07] it looks like the file its self is missing too [15:07] Ive tried xrandr -s 0, restarting a few times, and messing with cables a bunch [15:07] Xanvincent you saw the s?creenshot [15:07] sauvage, does the directory exist ? [15:07] which directory? [15:07] My display settings only show my second display [15:07] the one you pointed out before sauvage [15:07] in /lib [15:08] Hey guys, I have a Ubuntu 14.04 desktop computer (w/ Nvidia graphics) that doesn't have display anymore on boot. I have access to tty1/2/.. but no GUI starting.. any thoughts ? thank you [15:08] yes /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ exists still but it is missing the shared library libapparmor.so.1.4.0 and the linking to it [15:09] sauvage, wha't in this dir ? [15:09] no *apparmor* ? [15:10] hello [15:10] so /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ has all the shared libraries and they all look normal, except for libapparmor which for some reason was turned into an empty directory [15:12] i don't know how these libraries work inside of /lib/x86-64-linux-gnu/ is it possible to redownload one of the files and re set up the linking? [15:13] I have a Ubuntu 14.04 desktop computer (w/ Nvidia graphics) that doesn't have display anymore on boot. I have access to tty1/2/.. but no GUI starting.. any thoughts ? thank you [15:13] whats the status of RX460 support on ubuntu? [15:13] sauvage, did you check the link I gave u ? [15:13] https://github.com/SvenDowideit/dockerfiles/issues/17 [15:15] whats the status of Amd RX460 support on ubuntu? [15:15] Yes, so that was why i was linking the file in the first place, that solution worked for 6 months [15:15] However, this is a different issue because now that library is completely missing from my ubuntu install [15:16] hey folks [15:16] i just set up munin on my ubuntu 16.04 laptop, and all graph images are broken links [15:17] hi [15:18] my audio output is bad [15:20] yop [15:20] prashanta_: bad how ? [15:20] with crackling sound [15:20] sauvage, did you consider reinstall the docker service ? [15:21] dell technician told me to reinstall os [15:21] but i dont want to [15:22] gi [15:22] hi bros [15:22] do u like lol? [15:23] bye -.- [15:24] xanvincent, I can't find any information about "infinality-tweaked". Is this one of the options of infinality? [15:24] no [15:24] i meant i tweaked it myself [15:24] lol [15:25] just use the infinality or osx settings [15:25] youll be happy [15:27] Discover seems to be broken in Kubuntu...Ive read that installing muon is a fix, but it is not a perfect fix. Does anyone have any news about this? [15:27] ok, thanks xanvincent :) [15:30] hello, how to fix crackling audio sound output [15:31] Kubuntu 16.04 to be exact [15:33] Hello, the command "sudo apt-get update" do exactly the same operations of " search for updates " in the settings menu? [15:34] !dpkg | Guest [15:34] Guest: dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. [15:34] !apt [15:34] APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) [15:37] Many thanks,..so the "sudo apt-get upgrade" do the [15:37] Guest, in other words all package managers including apt are based on the dpkg package management system [15:37] same of "install update" of the settings menu?...right? [15:38] sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade [15:40] so, if I do "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get upgrade" is the same thing to do "search for updates" and "install all updates" from the setting menù?...

But you can access the machine through SSH and that works fine? But the problem is that you dont see any output while the machine is booting up? [16:18] BlauskaerM: yes, thanks anyway. I think I just found it - it seems to be a problem with grub in graphic mode [16:18] i'm watching an online video using firefox but i want to save this video on my PC. Anybody can say me where is the temporaly file which contain the video i'm watching online?

Try to stay on the channel topic :) [16:22] omg, reinstalled all of Xorg and its drivers, now got a gui back... haw can i disable all xorg updates for the future? [16:23] BlauskaerM, but i'm using firefox for ubuntu [16:24] and the firefox channel is muted [16:26] ok i'm downloading this using this plugin BlauskaerM [16:28] hmm i guess i have to pin all xorg related packages manually to prevent this desaster from happening again :( === TOM is now known as Guest72197 [16:35] I just updated from 16.04 to 16.04.1. Ubuntu fails to boot. It drops into the recovery console. [16:35] I'm wondering what a good way to debug is [16:36] The error recommends journalctl -xb. Running that gives a huge number of lines. The only thing I saw was apparmor failing. [16:36] pmitros: how did you update? [16:36] SwedeMike: Ubuntu GUI prompted me. I hit okay to everything. [16:37] SwedeMike: I tried apt-get update/upgrade since, and they didn't do anything. [16:37] I'm honestly not sure if the AppArmor failure is related to whether it boots [16:38] "Failed to start LSB: AppArmor initialization"/Unit apparmor.service has failed/apparmor.service: United entered a failed stated./apparmor.service: Failed with result 'exit-c [16:38] " [16:39] I'm thinking it could also be X. startx doesn't do anything, and the update removed a bunch of obsolete x-server stuff. But that might have been obsolete regardless from a previous upgrade [16:39] And upgrades sometimes fail to update NVidia drivers [16:39] Although lsmod lists 'nvidia' [16:41] 'startx' doesn't start X [16:41] pmitros: when you said apt-get upgrade, have you also done dist-upgrade? [16:42] pmitros, only if you are running the propretary drivers downloaded and installed from the nvidia site, otherwise the nvidia drivers in addtional drivers are upgraded when aavailable apgrades are in the repos [16:42] upgrades even [16:42] dist-upgrade says nothing to be done. It does complain about a file, 50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist, in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d [16:43] Otherwise, it lists 10 otherwise innocous packages which are no longer required [16:43] It didn't used to complain about that file, as far as I know, but the complaint says it's just ignoring it [16:43] It's not failing on it [16:44] * pmitros runs apt autoremove to get rid of those few files [16:44] dpkg --configure -a doesn't do anything either. [16:46] pmitros, I deleted that file with no consequences [16:46] So startx, looking at the log files, fails because it can't connect to dbus [16:49] hello guys and girls [16:49] i have a question if i'm allowed [16:50] i just downloaded open office to install it under ubuntu [16:50] but it doesnt work [16:50] seems it has to do with symlink [16:50] "howto"? please? [16:51] i have libre office also for complete my question [16:53] nobody? [16:53] knittell: Whenever possible use the Software Center to install things first instead of manual installation. The applications from there have already been made to run without issues [16:53] ah yes, tx for remind me genii [16:53] totally forgot that [16:53] !info libreoffice [16:53] libreoffice (source: libreoffice): office productivity suite (metapackage). In component universe, is optional. Version 1:5.2.2-0ubuntu2 (yakkety), package size 3 kB, installed size 17 kB [16:54] i'm completely new with ubuntu [16:54] i will try that now and thank you [16:54] hi [16:54] i have libre office already, but for a reason i prefer yet to use open office [16:54] hello zoder [16:55] so you are new to ubuntu knittel, what goal you ahve with ubuntu ? [16:55] knittell: out of curiosity, why would anyone prefer open office to libre office? [16:55] knittell also if you like you might want to take a look at synaptic for managing software, its a bit more advanced than Software Center, but also more complicated [16:55] tgm4883: my question as well [16:56] I think Ubuntu may be falling apart under the weight. Back in '96, on Debian, I could understand all this stuff. Now, it's just layers on layers on layers, and I have no way of knowing why things are failing. [16:56] It just stopped booting [16:57] Back then, you'd always get an error message which you could trace back. Now there are masked errors upon masked errors [16:58] pmitros: FUD, but fine -- you are free to use another distribution, as you see fit. 'just stopped booting' could mean many different things. [16:59] pmitros: when you say it takes you to a recovery console. Is it telling you that it's just taking you to recovery (which IIRC, is a menu system) or does it just drop you to a text login prompt [16:59] nacc: I don't think any of the others are better [17:00] tgm4883: I'll give the exact thing in a moment. Just rebooted. But no menu system.

My lsusb states that it's a Railink RT5372 usb adapter. and lsmod states that the available drivers are rt2X00 and rt2800 [17:52] destini: One is personal and the other is linked to my college. They are both having the same problem [17:53] akik: I have _an_ xorg.conf, but it's just the one that got created during installation, I haven't customized it. The only thing in it is a section for the mouse. [17:53] ltallen... the account that is linked to your college... is of what domain?

[20:56] then that's probably the cause? [20:57] bekks, hard to tell , i just follow stuff that I see online including that video [20:57] JFlash: Well, apparently that broke your wine install. [20:57] i think it told me to remove wine and install wine rt === _0xdeadface is now known as pigmei [20:58] why do you just do random stuff you see in some video? [20:58] maybe what I have runing is wine-rt and that doesnt support the 64 version?

[21:36] How do I get ubuntu to show me a text based login? I want to log in and run startx the old fashioned way. [21:36] ikonia: i agree with you on that. in this instance the question was about a build system bug [21:37] it's not, it's a compiler flag problem [21:37] Industrial: What release ? and what DE .. as 'startx' has limited applications to what DE . [21:38] I don't understand why you'd want to create the problems that come with start X [21:38] you want to use a desktop - use a desktop [21:38] everything is very integrated in a modern distro desktop, so why create a problem, what's the benift [21:38] benifit [21:39] ikonia: no, it is a bug. kernels don't build with gcc6 right now. debian's got an open ticket [21:39] Bashing-om: tiling window manager and 16.10 [21:39] Don't need a DE [21:39] Industrial: but what's wrong with lightdm [21:40] dm != de [21:40] ppf: really, I'm pretty sure I've got a build from gcc6, is it debian specific gcc build, or gcc in ever [21:40] Hello guys how to update value for this sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme without entering numbers manually?

Be aware here in this environment it is up to you what services are started . [21:41] ikonia: I've used the startx method for years, why is it a problem? [21:42] Bashing-om: that's not very sane way [21:42] Bashing-om: So I don't have e.g. networking that way? [21:42] Industrial: because the desktop / X stuff is more integrated in later releases [21:42] Industrial: because it's unnecessarily complicated [21:42] why not just use let the system deal with it like everyone else [21:43] ppf: To me it seems that having a DM as opposed to not is "more" but I'll let the idea go. [21:43] Industrial: Yep . no networking until you enable and start networking ( for instance) . [21:43] Industrial: DM != DE [21:43] ppf: I know. [21:44] So how do I get my display back to the primary/laptop screen if it boots up and shows a black laptop screen? [21:44] so thats the real problem [21:44] In a sane not complicated way [21:44] can you switch ttys? [21:44] ppf: There is a better alternative ? .. That method does work for my use case . [21:44] "my desktop sometimes shows a black screen, can you help" [21:44] ppf: yes, but the tty seems unusable [21:44] unusable how? [21:44] at least, the screen is black [21:45] ikonia: it's lightdm, not the desktop [21:45] Industrial: How do you know? [21:45] Why I can't access my shared folder on lubuntu from my windows 10.. .I've tried everything installed Samba etc and have no luck. [21:45] Industrial: yes, I understand that, [21:45] bekks: because I haven't logged in yet at that point [21:45] bekks: because when I connect the external display, the external display goed on with the login screen and the laptop screen flips on too [21:45] Industrial: Since its black, you dont know wether lightdm was started or not. [21:45] ah :) [21:45] Anyone have cue what is wrong? [21:46] I have a MSI laptop, and don't seem to have a key combo that swaps screens. [21:46] However lightdm is multi-monitor so I'm kinda stumped as to why it wouldnt work [21:46] lightdm has a log file [21:46] did you check that? [21:47] zacstone, how are you trying to access the share? what happens when you do? [21:47] I guess one solution is to keep the laptop screen on (it is broken, physically, and only partly usable) always on the desktop so it will never be off during next logins. [21:47] I get "the specified network name is no longer available" [21:48] Hi [21:48] "*your folder* is not accessible. you might not have persmission to use this nerwork resource. contract the administrator of this server to find out blah blah " [21:49] @pballer2007? [21:49] and how are you accessing the share, zacstone [21:50] is this the right place for help with ubuntu/pxe/kickstart ? [21:50] zacstone, did this share ever work...or are you just getting it online? [21:51] I just started it, installed lubuntu on my other system and shared the folder so i can upload my files on this system from my windows 10 [21:51] zacstone, did you define the samba user and password? (smbpasswd) [21:52] yes [21:52] I can see shared folders [21:53] Why windows 10 didn't ask me for password first before giving me this error? [21:55] zacstone, don't know win10, and probably a lot of the folks here aren't up on it either [21:56] zacstone, are you using the same username in windows and samba? [21:56] I guess so [21:57] zacstone: echo %username% on windows, echo $USER on linux [21:58] akik, I don't think the samba user has to be a linux user. The samba user is defined separately from the linux user. It can be the same, with the same password, or different. [21:58] it works most easily if the username and password are the same [21:59] akik, agreed, but checking $USER isn't a guarantee. That is why I have asked (several times) about how he defined the samba user. [22:00] both have same user name zacstone [22:00] zacstone, both windows and linux? [22:00] yes sir [22:01] @th0r does tag works? [22:01] #th0r test === dreamon_ is now known as dreamon [22:01] zacstone, those both worked. [22:01] Okay, haven't been on irc for few year [22:01] zacstone: use "nick: message" [22:01] zacstone, and the third user/password, for samba, is the same also? [22:01] simply th0r works too [22:02] #th0r yes [22:04] zacstone, you do need to attach that username/password to the folder in windows, or windows won't be able to access it. Also, this is probably fixed by now, but years ago I had a problem with windows uppercasing the password. But as I said, I suspect by this time it is fixed. [22:05] how do attach user/password to folder in windows? === kosta is now known as Kosta7 [22:07] it tries to use the logged on credentials first (or any saved/cached credentials for that resource, which don't exist in this case I'm fairly sure). that's why akik suggested it's easiest when the username and password are the same on both systems (useful in a single user environment). [22:08] to set a username/password for that resource try (first article I found, hope it's clear) -- http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/19864/~/how-do-i-map-a-network-drive-in-windows%3F [22:08] pballer2oo7, I can't speak for windows, but linux requires it to be included in the mount command or provided at mount [22:08] you need to check the "Connect using different credentials" checkbox [22:09] i've used "smbpasswd -a username" in my single user samba setup [22:09] I have this checked too [22:10] if you checked it, it'll pop up a NT logon form. provide your samba authorized user and pass from your linux machine. [22:11] zacstone, are there any shares on the lubuntu system that you _can_ access from you win10 machine? [22:12] my lubuntu system is already shared, i can see folders on my windows 10 but cannot access them [22:17] can you run KDE with 2gb of ram? [22:20] anyone know how i can attach a current session to a screen session === Guest8045 is now known as p1l0t [22:22] looks like reptyr did it [22:23] it's not a thing [22:23] reptyr a good attempt at a thing that's not really done. [22:23] So I made a floppy disk with a file on it. The formatting is FAT and I saved a .ini file that needs to be on there for an old server. It won't read the file but I think it might be the permissions [22:24] I tried sudo chmod 777 but it doesn't say there is an error but it stays like 544 [22:25] @th0r those are same error i got [22:26] https://techjourney.net/cannot-connect-to-cifs-smb-samba-network-shares-shared-folders-in-windows-10/ [22:26] On an old EOL Ubuntu release, can I upgrade the kernel to something a bit more recent than the one that was originally released with it? [22:27] I'm using 2.6.20 right now, but I was hoping to get 2.6.25 or later for 3D support in my VM. [22:29] Oh apparently fat doesn't support file permissions [22:30] Maybe I need to change the name of the owner? But then to what? [22:30] how do i switch page in nano ? [22:31] Or maybe this should be in NTFS anyway? [22:31] Don't worry in the end all machine will become linux [22:34] linux-mint [22:35] hola [22:36] p1l0t: See if this helps : https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2337933 <- mount USB drive with full permissions .\ [22:37] Bashing-om: thanks [22:39] p1l0t: :) with Window's file systems .. it is all in the mount point .

[22:46] dave0x6d, and hopefully that ox is not touching the internet [22:46] box [22:46] dave0x6d: But .. that release is end of life ,, and the software repo no longer exist ,, that release has NO support . [22:46] Bashing-om: I know. [22:47] kk4ewt: I'm only running an email server on it. [22:47] (kidding) [22:47] shell shock, heartbleed and dirty cow is just the ones i can think of out the top of my head that you are vulnerable to [22:48] kk4ewt: I am literally using this VM for practicing exploits :p [22:48] hello folks, question with systemd. I'm attempting to write a startup script on 16.04 to /usr/lib/systemd/system/script.service [22:48] I just wanted 3D acceleration on it to make it a little nicer to use. [22:48] dave0x6d: Point your browser to http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ , Then one can d/l kernels of choice . [22:48] Nano tells me no such file or directory. after digging a bit, it appears /system/ does not exist. where am i going wrong? [22:49] Bashing-om: 5:44:21 PM  Bashing-om: Yeah, I already have old-releases in my sources. [22:49] dave0x6d: You are not comprehending what I am telling you .. [22:50] hello [22:50] Hi [22:50] Bashing-om: So you're saying apt-cache search doesn't work? [22:50] hello [22:51] is it ok to have multiple lines in my crontab file? for example * * * * * some_command and then the next line is * 4 * * * some_other_command [22:51] basically i want to do something per minute and something at 4am [22:51] saganbyte, why not [22:52] kk4ewt: ok, for some reason the second line is not firing off :( [22:52] dave0x6d: No, will not work as there is verry limited availability of any packages in the 'old-releases' repo . so point your browser direct to the source http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ ; now you can obtain any kernel that you desire . [22:52] saganbyte, i didnt say your time setting was correct but that you can have more than one cronjobs [22:53] kk4ewt: i see [22:53] so is my time setting is incorrect? [22:53] do startup scripts need to be written as root/sudo? [22:53] jolly need to be run as root/sudo yes [22:54] ok thank you! [22:54] Bashing-om: I'm not seeing linux-image. http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/ [22:54] thats why most of the time they are run in rc.local [22:54] tl;dr, I was never a C programmer, I want to build a package and maintain a PPA for it [22:54] So basically I got the package to build with "debuild -b -uc -us", but when I use dput to upload it, it uh, complains about signing the package [22:55] dave0x6d: Whatever is in that repository was frozen when Feisty hit it's EOL. Whatever kernels are there are whatever the latest ones were that were available at that time. Being an interim release kernels are not usually bckported to those releases, so no "test" kernels would have existed [22:55] dave0x6d: There is also : http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ that contains all the kernels . [22:55] I'm confused what to do right now, is it messing with debuild or debsign or what? [22:55] I think -uc/s are flags to not sign the package but whenever I specify them it uh, fails to build [22:55] sorry, x'd out the wrong tab. [22:56] dave0x6d: You could search launchpad PPAs for non-official later kernels which individuals or groups ported to Feisty, but i don't hold out much hope therer. [22:56] Ok, I tried to create that startup script again. My error is the same. [ Error writing /usr/lib/systemd/system/my.service: No such file or directory ] -- any thoughts? [22:56] Bashing-om: That does definitely not contain "all" the kernels :p I can't even find the current 2.6.20-15 kernel I'm currently running [22:57] dave0x6d: Ny apollogies .. the old-releases link is to the .iso file not to the kernel only . [22:58] Anyone have a suggestion for my startup script error? [23:00] Found the folder. http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-meta/ [23:01] dave0x6d: Agrreed, I do not see feisty listed . sorry to mis-direct you . [23:08] Is /usr/lib/systemd/system/ the best place for startup scripts or am I misreading this? === lubuntu is now known as Guest76814 [23:13] Ugh, I can't install a new kernel since I'm missing linux-firmware [23:13] myself i think it should be in /etc/systemd/system/ [23:15] thank you kk4ewt, i will give that a shot [23:15] Is there even a non-free on feisty? [23:28] im running ubuntu mate 16.10, can i install another DE or will it just break the system? [23:29] kubuntu-desktop for kde thrmo [23:29] hello gents! [23:29] and gals [23:29] or xubuntu lubuntu etc thrmo [23:30] i actually wanted a taste of unity [23:30] should i just clean install it? [23:30] ubuntu-desktop then thrmo [23:30] ; [23:31] bazhang how can i change DE afterwards? login screen? === root is now known as Guest14585 [23:31] thrmo, choose at login yes [23:32] hey guys, quick question. Currently dual-booting w10 and ubuntu. My sdd partition for ubuntu is full. Can I create a partition from a hdd used in Windows, format it, and use it from ubuntu? [23:33] Hi, I'm trying to start LXDE with lightdm, and it's not letting me. I have Session=LXDE in .dmrc and user-session=LXDE in my autologin setup in lightdm.conf, but it still starts a session for a different DE. === Elronnd|slex is now known as Elronnd [23:33] Guest14585: you can resize partitions with gparted [23:33] Guest14585: there is a gparted livecd you can put on a usb stick [23:33] Screw it, 3D isn't worth it. [23:34] Guest14585: you can also install gparted in the ubuntu install image [23:34] thing is, the sdd is nearly full. i need like 250gb+ for some games, so a second drive is currently my only option. [23:34] Guest14585, you can also look into creating a new "mount point" on the hdd then copying over your files there [23:35] that sounds like a good option, thanks! would a usb3 drive, or something external be a viable alternative? [23:35] Guest14585: mount points are in /etc/fstab, a usb3 drive would work fine [23:36] no me deja mi mami === marcoag_stressed is now known as marcoagpinto [23:36] fantastic - thanks for you help man :) [23:36] when getting "E: failed to fetch http://... 404 Not Found" is there a way to force apt to automatically try at least 1-2 other mirrors? [23:36] and just like that... he gone! [23:37] we call that brothel quick where i'm from [23:38] MrJones: are you on a slow connection? [23:38] Caelum: it's a 404 error, so it's probably some sort of mirror misconfiguration [23:38] I can test it [23:38] what's the addy [23:38] ? [23:38] anyway I have been sporadically seeing these on some automated installs, and it kind of annoys me that apt doesn't at least try one other mirror [23:38] MrJones: for update or for getting a package [23:39] installing a new package after apt-get update clean && apt-get update --fix-missing [23:39] it means that a package got update right AFTER you did the update [23:40] that occasionally happens [23:41] yes but the mirrors don't update all at once, do they? it's just kinda annoying apt doesn't even try one other source or anything [23:46] hello [23:49] pplplplplplplplayso on [23:55] Hi! [23:56] So, i gotta execute this script and the 'start' parameter at boot time: '/opt/spunky/startscript.sh start' i added it into '/etc/rc.local' but no luck, any help ? [23:57] hey guys i get this error:... it works but im wondering what this message means... did i screw up the install? http://pastebin.com/UFAjHgtu
