SMART is not all incompassive . does not take the place of the manufacturer's tests . After all, SMART is just interpreting the data stored on the drive .

[01:50] sclimans, ive never had a harddrive recovered, but my guess is that the *.bin is the raw disk image [01:50] Sean_McG: actually I did lot of commit/push last time. I believe there are still some code to be pushed. [01:50] rdh, I think you're correct. But how do I use this image? [01:51] k [01:51] Sean_McG: maybe I should try upgrading the eclipse to Neon. And see if it fixes the problem? [01:51] rockstar__: worth a try but no guarantees [01:51] sclimans, and then if so, you could use dd to put it on a harddrive... dd if=/path/to/*.bin of=/dev/sdc <- drive you want it on. [01:52] ok I'm try upgrade it now just to make sure [01:52] anybody know how to get drivers for y50 on kubuntu installed for 4k screen? [01:52] winsen: No can create additinal partitions for a separate boot as primary . In the MBR partitioning scheme there is a max of 4 primary partitions - one of those 4 is the extended partition that allows 128 logical partitions. Unless there is an over-riding need the use of a separate /boot partition is discouraged in linux . Now what is your real problem ? [01:53] rdh, I don't have a hard drive to put it on. It's a 120 gb file. Any way I can simply mount it as a virtual drive? [01:54] sorry nvidia drivers? [01:54] Hi. I want to use the LTS Hardware Enablement stack, but can't find any documentation on how to do so. I have Ubuntu 16.04, and had initially installed when 16.04 had just come out in April. [01:54] sclimans, https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&p=163047 [01:55] All I can find is that Ubuntu uses the Hardware Enablement Stack by default starting with 16.04.2, but that doesn't help me because I'm on 16.04.0 (I believe). [01:55] Tynach: I'm reasonably certain there is a document on the Ubuntu website for that... at least for trusty (14.04) because I just did it a few months ago [01:55] Sean_McG, yes, there is one for 14.04.

[02:23] bashing-on: I wonder if it was not boot partition that I already created? [02:24] bashing-on: that a good idea. how can I do that? [02:24] winsen: You have no boot partition as such . There is boot code installed to sector 0 of the hard drive and the remaining boot stages are installed to the root partition of the operating systems . [02:25] I have a question around "su". I can run a command using "sudo" just fine. but if I want to change the user in the shell to "root" by entering "su", the same password I use to run the sudo command does not work. any idea why? [02:25] sector327: because you type your password in sudo, su expects root's password [02:25] Hello all, any bluetooth experts around? [02:26] xD [02:26] sector327: so just 'sudo su -' instead [02:26] bashing-on: rememeber what I told you. I already changed grub2 boot order and made windoz first. Grub2 was working perfectely. maybe that explains why sda3 still exist in primary partition? [02:26] winsen: " Bashing-om " with an om .. if ya miss my nick I will miss your replies .. tab completion ! works , [02:26] Sean_McG, thank you. so once I'm in as root, I should then be able to change the root password that I obviously forgot. :) sound right? [02:27] bashing-om: rememeber what I told you. I already changed grub2 boot order and made windoz first. Grub2 was working perfectely. maybe that explains why sda3 still exist in primary partition? [02:27] bashing-om: I am sorry [02:28] winsen: paste ' cat /etc/default/grub ' and we see what the booting situation is set up to be at present .. maybe an easy way to correct . [02:28] Sean_McG, it worked. THANK YOU!!!! [02:28] sector327: yes, but it may be better to keep root locked and only use sudo. nowadays there are precious few reasons to actually log in as root [02:28] you da man! [02:28] (or maybe woman) [02:28] * Sean_McG checks [02:28] not a woman [02:28] bashing-om: remeber I am using live cd [02:28] *remember [02:29] winsen: Well .. do you have access to another machine to irc from .. and we boot up one of the linux systems . [02:29] sector327: root@ohana:~# passwd -S [02:29] root L 01/16/2014 0 99999 7 -1 [02:31] Sean_McG, gotcha. thanks again [02:31] winsen: If it is but a config issue, we can directly tell grub what to boot . IF we know what to boot . [02:31] bashing-om: unfortuenetelly it's my only machine [02:31] bashing-om: result: https://paste.debian.net/898267/ [02:32] bashing-om: can you check on it? [02:32] I think 01/16/2014 is when I actually installed this OS [02:32] Well ,, will take a bit if time .. no big deal .. welcome to the learning curve . We find out IF sda3 is that primary operating system, ok ? [02:34] winsen: ^^ sorry did not nick to you . [02:39] bashing-om: ok. how can we find out what is/ was sda3 ? and most impotant how do do as you said above: "... We purge grub, re-install grub to that operating system and from that grub chainload all the others . Once grub boots then you change the booting order ." [02:42] bashing-om: are you still ther? [02:44] winsen: K; what we want to find is that "primary" linux system .. that might be on sda3 . with me so far ? we mount sda3 from the livDVD and see if you think that is the one you want as "primary" . [02:46] hello, what seems to be the cause of this error -> fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable [02:46] is it a ram thing? [02:47] bashing-om: Iare there any way to know if sda3 was boot partition or not? [02:47] *are [02:49] winsen: Sure ,, we look at some of the files .. and see if that is the operating system .. and IF that is the one you want as that primary boot control authoruty , There can be only one such authority per hard drive . [02:50] bashing-om: do you have any explanation about the 3 first additionnal wrong lines tat it shows first on grub2? [02:51] *that [02:51] bashing-om: are there any command line that can show us what kind of files are in sda3? [02:53] winsen: Those lines are generated from scripts that frub reads and copiles into the master . I will bet that what you have is recursion from grub reading several scripts from the differing systems . [02:55] bashing-om: right. As we know, normally we should 3lines but not see all those several script from the differeing system [02:56] winsen: Sure we mount sda3 .. and LooK . In the liveDVD run ' sudo mkdir /mnt/looksee ; sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/looksee ; ls -al /mnt/look/boot/grub/grub.cfg. Just as a place to start "looking" . [02:58] bashing-om: https://paste.debian.net/898273/ [02:58] bashing-om: it shows nothing apparentely ? [02:59] winsen: Surprised .. I had expected that partition to be bootable .. what have we from ' ls -al /mnt/looksee/ ' ? [03:00] bashing-om: I have one information from gpatred: on sda3=system files ext4, size 14Gio, used 7Gios, unused 6.35Gio [03:01] ls [03:01] in ubuntu when the gui prompt says there is software updates and you can select download ...can you also simply do apt-get update && apt-get upgrade and accomplish same thing? [03:02] bashing-om: I don't get you, where did you see that? [03:02] winsen: We already know that info , What we are seeking is that prinary booting partition . [03:02] bashing-om: https://paste.debian.net/898274/ [03:03] MarcoP: Affirnative . The GUIs are but front ends to apt . [03:03] bashing-om: how do you know that is bootable partition? [03:04] bashing-om: do you mean that sda3 was the old '/' partition? [03:06] bashing-om: lines 10 and 27? [03:06] bashing-om: are you still there? [03:09] winsen: Yeah ,just checking. That install is 14.10 utopic . Not the primary I do not think .. still we need to either remove that install OR get it upgraded as it is no longer supported . [03:12] thanks Bashing-om [03:13] winsen: Let's continue looking . get out of sda3 ' sudo umount /mnt/looksee ' and now we look at sda9 . Do ' sudo mount /dev/sda9 /mnt/looksee ; ls -al /mnt/looksee ' . [03:14] MarcoP: Happy2help . CLI is so much nicer and easier, huh ? [03:15] I like CLI better for that :) [03:15] easier [03:15] MarcoP: Inquiring minds want to know .. and the CLI tells all . [03:15] :) [03:16] Hello! [03:16] :) [03:16] I need some help, I'm on Kubuntu but I thought maybe someone here could give me a hand. I'm trying to sign into 'Google' in online accounts but when I click 'Google' nothing happens [03:18] I'm trying to follow https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=355415#c19 comment 19 but I'm getting lost at the CD part :) [03:18] KDE bug 355415 in accounts-kcm "Cannot connect to Google Hangouts" [Grave,Resolved: worksforme] === linux_ is now known as WyZeGuY [03:18] winsen_: I have a short attention span .. no response soon and I do wander off else where .

O was looking at line numers and get mis-directed there .. ok sda8 ! [03:21] bashing-om: you didn't tell me about sda3? === dyson is now known as Guest96372 [03:22] winsen_: We leave sda3 for now as it is a 14.10 install . Maybe we remove that install ? as it is no longer supported . [03:22] bashing-om: after sudo mount /dev/sda8 /mnt/looksee? [03:23] bashing-om: "...as it is no longer supported" what do you mean? [03:24] winsen_: Yeah .. you have the hang of it :) then we look ' ls -al /mnt/looksee ' see if we even want to spend any more time on this partition . [03:24] Any Android junkies online?

[03:30] winsen_: Yeah ,, done here with sda8, as is another 14,10 install that is EOL .. ' sudo umount /mnt/looksee ; sudp mount /dev/sda10 ; ls -al /mnt/looksee / see what we have here . [03:30] sudp/sudo* typo ! [03:32] bashing-om:I don't get you. can you please be clear? [03:34] winsen_: " vmlinuz-3.16.0-4 " is a release 14.10 kernel that is installed to sda8 . It is EOL . now we want to release sda8 and now see what is on sda10 . [03:35] bashing-om:It seems to be wrong typo [03:35] bashing-om:https://paste.debian.net/898282/ [03:36] hello lurkers one and all [03:38] winsen_: Ouch ! show me ' sudo blkid ' .

"vmlinuz-3.16.0-4 " is a release 14.10 kernel that is installed to sda8 . It is EOL . now we want to release sda8" I can see the same thin on each of them [03:45] bashing-om: sudo blkid supposed to show unmounted partition? [03:46] bashing-om: you don'texplain anything. [03:47] bashing-om: from an hour [03:47] bashing-om: I am still have the same problem [03:47] winsen_: Yeah .. blkid shows all the system is sware of . Here it do see sda10 . // let's see what is mounted presently . show ' mount' - maybe /mnt/looksee is still in use ? [03:49] bashing-om: yes but it means no partition are mounted with the lat command line? [03:49] *last [03:49] it showed many partitions [03:49] well .. I stop and explain . we can not fix what we can not find right ? So we are looking to find something we can fix . sda3 and sda8 we can not fix . They are EOL and there is no software repository to work from to fix grub . Now we hope we can work from sda10 . [03:50] bashing-om: are you kidding? [03:51] bashing-om: sda8 is the curent '/' how is this possible? [03:53] winsen_: I kid you not . " v3.16-rc1-utopic/ " .. and that release has long been out of support . [03:54] winsen_: Possible that /mnt/looksee is still attached . do ' sudo umount /mnt/looksee ' to detatch it . [04:00] bashing-om: "v3.16-rc1-utopic/ "? I don't get you. [04:01] winsen_: That kernel version(s) are for utopoc release . that is 14.10 . [04:01] !utopic | winsen_ [04:01] winsen_: Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) was the 21st release of Ubuntu.

We have no access to the software repository in a EOL release to install the files we would need to fix grub . [04:04] winsen_: Then we hope that the system you upgraded is on sda10 ! [04:05] bashing-om: no sense at all, how could system be installed in the whole partitions? [04:07] winsen_: See your https://paste.debian.net/898283/ . Each partition contains a seperate operating system except sda9 that is a common swap . [04:08] winsen_: Opps.. sda6 is a shared data partition . [04:10] winsen_: Remember, when we started this off I asked if you knew the primary booting system ? well we still looking to find it . [04:12] s [04:12] bashing-om: the primary partition is sda8. no need to search. my question is just what is sda3 whether old boot partitio or not... the rest I know it. [04:13] bashing-om: I mean on linux sda8 is / === HoloIRCUser3 is now known as ledeni [04:15] winsen_: I would "Assume" that the install on sda8 is a clone of the sda3 install. And further .. as you have updated the system recently, it sure was not the installs on sda3 or sda8 as they are EOL and have no access to a repository to update from .. Now that only leaves us sda10 as a possibility . As that is the last linux partition on that drive . [04:15] bashing-om: primary partition should be sda3 because from sda4 and so on are extended partition all is showed here : https://paste.debian.net/898294/ [04:17] bashing-om: yes maybe sda3 is clone of sda8 it very possible [04:17] where has flash gone in ubuntu 16.04?

" /dev/sda10 335042560 428630015 93587456 44.6G 83 Linux " . sda10 is the last linux partition . the others we have looked at and they are not current . [04:17] Sonderblade - it's in the Canonical repository, the adobe-flashplugin package. [04:17] Sonderblade - partner [04:18] bashing-om: for my part i used to create boot partition in every distro i installed that why I asked you how can we know that [04:19] SonikkuAmerica: oh right [04:20] bashing-om: sda10 is home partition. [04:20] bashing-om: I told you I know what I've done [04:21] bashing-om: you're just keep asking me to type and pastbin without any explanation which's really very ennoying. [04:21] winsen_: Then yoy have 2 installs that have not been updated in more than a year . what can I say else ? [04:22] bashing-om: what is sda3 is it '/' partition or boot partition? no answer [04:24] winsen_: Well .. can be either .. mount it and "look" .. if /mnt/looksee/boot/grub/grub.cfg file exists, then it is both . [04:24] bashing-om: "2 installs that have not been updated for more than a year..."where did you see that? [04:25] bashing-om: I already mounted sda3? [04:25] winsen_: Booting kernels " boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4- " that kernel belongs to release 14.10 . [04:27] bashing-om: I guess you're talking boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4- of ubuntu 14.10 version right? [04:28] bashing-om: I guess you're talking about "boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-" of ubuntu 14.10 version right? [04:29] winsen_: Teah .. now as that is the booting kernel .. then these systems are way out of date . and have not been able to even be updated in a very long time as the repository DOES not exist . [04:29] bashing-om: you didn't answer to my question.

[04:31] winsen_: Right ,, now what is your not-comprehending about that kernel ? [04:32] bashing-om: yes or no. [04:32] ok [04:32] bashing-om: I see [04:32] winsen_: yes or no what ? I have lost your train of thought . [04:33] bashing-om: can you explain how is that possible? === uhhf1 is now known as uhhf [04:34] hello [04:34] how can i istall telegream [04:34] bashing-om: It's ok. you already answered here. winsen_: Right ,, now what is your not-comprehending about that kernel ?" [04:34] winsen_: Please expand on "what can you explain how is that possible" ? I fail to follow your thought process . [04:35] bashing-om: you're sayong some partitions are updated and others not. except sda8 all of of the rest are not right? [04:35] *saying... [04:38] bashing-om: anyway thanks. now I am sleepy. I have to go bed. I'll see later. g.night [04:39] winsen_: sda8 also is booting up the 14.10 kernel . Now IF you have an updated system as you say you did .. then it must be on sda10, as that is the only partition we have not looked at . Mount it again and look once more to assure ourselves that what is true, is true . === spock is now known as Guest35071 [04:40] ...

[07:12] let me say that, you play wow right [07:12] I used to have the NAGA before [07:12] nope [07:12] its great for lol or dota [07:13] but for me the naga was hard to hit the keys [07:13] so many [07:16] . [07:16] sonu_nk: Logs are commonly found in /var/log [07:17] Fire are u using any firewall rule? [07:17] nope [07:17] i was told i dont need to mess with that [07:17] i am getting service unavailable for my domain..which log i need to check hateball [07:17] Im looking for good rules [07:17] oh yea the naga [07:18] Razer_Chroma_Err: What do you need to configure iptables for? Do you have any running services that listen to the outside world? [07:18] well Im new to firewall [07:18] just more for protection [07:18] heeps of buttons. dont need that many. i was talking mainy about the logitech ones with 4 top buttons and no side buttons, i like the side buttons [07:18] not service running [07:18] sonu_nk: Do you mean you want to read apache logs? /var/log/apache2/ and whatever filename you configured the site to log to [07:19] Razer_Chroma_Err: If there's nothing listening, then there's nothing that needs to be filtered [07:19] I hava some vm for testing [07:19] but just that [07:19] gotcha [07:20] also the ip forwarding is necessary to be use? [07:20] hateball [07:20] Razer_Chroma_Err: What do you mean? [07:21] I only have vm running but I wanna be able to send and receive files on those vms [07:21] maybe a ftp server [07:21] Im reading a lot but its all new for me [07:21] FTP is terrible, use SFTP at least [07:22] gotcha, secure ftp [07:23] besides I want to be safe to browsing internet and stay away from those nasty malwares [07:24] !virus | Razer_Chroma_Err [07:24] Razer_Chroma_Err: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using Samba). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [07:24] Razer_Chroma_Err: There is malware for Linux, but the chance of you being hit by anything is slim [07:25] and malwares? [07:25] Razer_Chroma_Err: And typically there are no exploits in the wild that doesnt require you entering your sudo password. And if you do that without knowing why, well you deserve what you get [07:26] Razer_Chroma_Err: Just be sure to keep the system up-to-date and you'll be fine [07:26] :) [07:27] thank you hateball, this community is GREAT! [07:28] ik razer [07:28] Razer_Chroma_Err: That said, a simple script could wipe your entire ~/ (home) so use common sense [07:28] I usually stay away on rm commands [07:28] yep one typo can also do that hate [07:29] rm-rf = panic [07:29] i know someone who almost lost over $1000 of software on a linux server [07:29] wow [07:29] he did a typo entire drive wiped [07:29] they made backups so it was saved [07:29] does linux have a easy way to backup all the content? [07:30] !backup | Razer_Chroma_Err [07:30] Razer_Chroma_Err: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [07:30] then later just do a boot disk then get it all back easy and smooth? [07:30] that would of been a hell of a thing to tell your boss [07:30] Razer_Chroma_Err: Making a full system clone with something like clonezilla is nice, if you dont need file level restore [07:31] otherwise you can just !rsync your stuff somewhere [07:32] Ill ready more, again Im very new to it... [07:33] now Im getting my MSI lit keyboard working [07:33] I want to be able to change the colors [07:33] also [07:33] when I start with linux [07:34] my system was already with win10 [07:34] under the UEFI... [07:34] it was a pain to get it changed to UEFI + legacy [07:35] having a raid of 4 ssds on this laptop I had to get a extra ssd just for linux [07:35] the issue was the grub was not showing... so for me F11 only [07:35] spend 2 days looking for results on the bootloader [07:36] Razer_Chroma_Err: what model keyboard is it? usually you can change/disable leds using xset at least [07:36] if it is one of them fancy one that can do all the rainbow stuff you may need something else [07:36] msi gt72 [07:36] exacly hateball [07:36] oh it's a laptop? [07:37] yup [07:37] GT72 2QE [07:39] Razer_Chroma_Err: googling brings up https://github.com/stevelacy/msi-keyboard but I have no idea if it works [07:39] sweet [07:39] Im going to try out [07:39] I have small machine, 32bit, installed with LT1S 16.04, that is tight on disk. How do I make updating does not leave previous linux packages behind wasting disk space and filling the disk after few updates? [07:40] Razer_Chroma_Err: Seems you need to install node.js and such, but that's all in the repos [07:40] :) [07:41] nikolam: sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean [07:42] hateball, 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 13 not upgraded , it did nothing to reclaim disk space, belonging to older. non-active linux [07:43] nikolam: autoremove will remove unused kernels, are you saying you still have a bunch in /boot ? [07:44] it's not about /boot, it is using disk space elsewhere, and yes hateball it behaviour of keeping older linux after update and filling disk is as old as ubuntu [07:44] npm ERR! Linux 4.4.0-47-generic [07:44] hateball [07:45] Error: Cannot find module 'msi-keyboard' [07:45] how to operate windows usb drive in ubuntu seamlessly and vice versa? [07:46] Razer_Chroma_Err: Well that is a third party application and not supported here, I just pointed you to it. [07:46] oh, its okay [07:46] thanks tho [07:46] nikolam: have you checked with 'du' what dir is actually using all that space? [07:47] linux-headers, linux-headers*generic, linux-image*-generic, linux-image-extra*generic is kept from previous linux and filling the disk [07:47] nikolam: oh you have release-upgraded? [07:49] hateball, is's 16.04 LTS install from minimal image, netinstall [07:50] nikolam: That's weird then, if you do updates using regular apt-get dist-upgrade, then apt-get autoremove should remove unused kernels [07:51] wel it doesn't and it's like that since.. 2007 I think [07:51] how do i check if i have all of the drivers [07:52] it gives ability to boot previous kernel and save the day if update made something up. Happened during the years sometimes. [07:52] But I need to limit it to, say 1 or how many I want previous ilinux and it's packages, not to keep all previous [07:52] nikolam: there's scripts do remove unused kernels in a more thourough way tho [07:53] yes, it could be great to have that as tunable in ubuntu, so that I can set how many of them to keep to save disk space (including zero) [07:54] after removing *4.4.0-45* packages, I reclaimed almost 2GB and I can live again [07:55] but that would happen on nex update, yes scripts to remove, maybe. [07:55] nikolam: if you have the byobu package installed, it'll pull in a purge-old-kernels script with it that you can use [07:56] how to operate windows usb drive in ubuntu seamlessly and vice versa? [07:56] thanks, hateball will try it. [07:58] lenswipee: Can you elaborate? [07:58] lenswipee: Ubuntu can read/write NTFS partitions just fine by default [07:58] most usb thumbdrives are formatted with fat32 anyway, too, which it can also read [07:59] if it's a regular external drive that uses usb connectors, it's probably gonna be formatted with ntfs.. what you want is one of those because theya re readble by both systems [08:01] hateball, well it cant read my usb drive [08:01] hateball, well it cant read my phone plugged in to it i mean [08:01] Hello, is it possible to reduce the number of /dev/tty63 and /dev/ttyS27 ? [08:02] hateball, i cannnot access my photos on my phone when plugged into ubuntu pc [08:02] okay that is different [08:02] some phones don't show up as a usb drive as I recall .. maybe [08:02] what kind of phone is it [08:02] lenswipee: That’s most propably not a usb drive. [08:03] right vlt .. lenswipee some phones don't show up as a usb drive like they should. However most phones these days do have an option when they plug in that must be checked [08:03] like you can set them to "charge only" or media.. at least android. what kind of phone is it [08:04] sometimes there is software that you have to install.. or that used to be a thing [08:08] any native tool that reminds you to take a break ? [08:09] any app from the software center you know of? [08:10] is it possible to reduce the number of /dev/tty63 and /dev/ttyS27 ? ls /dev/tty* | wc -w give 100 and ACTIVE_CONSOLES="/dev/tty[1-6" [08:11] lenswipee: a phone is different, usually it uses MTP if it is android, and if it's iOS I dont think it presents itself at all [08:12] hateball, so whats the solution? [08:12] lenswipee: well you can start by telling us what phone it is [08:13] The mindreaders are all asleep currently [08:13] its andriod, samsung galaxy s2. dont laugh :) [08:13] lenswipee: That's fine. IIRC you can set them to use Mass Storage Mode rather than MTP in the connection options [08:14] lenswipee: which would then present the device as a regular thumbdrive [08:14] #linuxcontainers [08:14] let me try [08:18] lenswipee, you may have to unplug and replug to get the dialog to show up. I think there is another place to look, but that's what I usually do [08:19] Should be able to slide down the notification drawer on the phone and pick the connection settings there [08:20] please guys i have a little problem i have set my host files as follows https://dpaste.de/pRGB but i can login as user@server.onestore.su what else do i need to do? === dyson is now known as Guest19403 [08:20] yeah === bwr_ is now known as bwr [08:22] kingplusplus, do you mean you *can't* log in? I'm trying to look now [08:22] kingplusplus: well for one, the hostname is only for your loopback interface, and not for whatever interface you may present on your LAN [08:23] kingplusplus: say if it has 192.168.1.2, you need to use that in your hosts file [08:23] yep [08:23] rifter: i mean ssh user@server.onestore.su ssh: connect to host server.onestore.su port 22: No route to host [08:23] kingplusplus: do you have an sshd installed and running on the server at all? [08:23] yeah kingplusplus you need that hosts file set like hateball said, on both machines [08:23] in phone has two options: mtp or ptp [08:24] well no route is because he doesn't have dns and didn't put the ip in the hosts file [08:24] if it was just sshd he'd get connection refused [08:24] well if it was missing sshd or the firewall [08:24] rifter: true [08:24] rifter: i used cloudflare by adding A records [08:25] lenswipee: hmmm, you should be able to read over MTP at least, but I don't run Unity myself so I am not sure how it tries to mount the device [08:25] kingplusplus, are both machines set in the dns settings for the appropriate interface to use that dns server? [08:25] have you fixed the mouse yet Razer_Chroma_Err [08:25] rifter: how do you mean both? [08:26] rifter: is one machine no? the one with the IP [08:27] hey firestriker [08:27] not yer [08:27] ok [08:27] its not crashing yet [08:27] but I have an issue with saving the config file [08:28] if I logoff/reboot, does not save it [08:28] not a big deal because is just the color [08:28] but Im still looking on the crash [08:28] also for the keyboard, I got a lot of errors lol [08:29] those are all note-pre-gyp err! [08:30] how is this possible that I'm adding repository, running apt-get update then trying to install google-drive-ocamlfuse and ubuntu returns Unable to locate package? [08:30] right after I run the npm install [08:30] $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alessandro-strada/ppa [08:30] $ sudo apt-get update [08:30] $ sudo apt-get install google-drive-ocamlfuse [08:31] hateball i do not have sshd [08:31] gonliSs: that ppa might not have packages for your ubuntu version, did you check that? [08:31] Kingsplus no you need the same dns on both machines, or a dns that will talk to the dns that has the record [08:31] ducasse: I successfully installed it on another VPS with the same system [08:31] hateball: i think i have sshd installed because i can ssh using user@IP [08:31] kingsplusplus Kingsplus no you need the same dns on both machines, or a dns that will talk to the dns that has the record [08:32] I'm running: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS [08:32] kingplusplus, er see above :P [08:32] rifter: do you mean my local system? needs dns? [08:32] gonliSs, does it list at all ? " apt-cache search google-drive " [08:32] kingplusplus, both the machine you are connecting from and the one you are connecting to [08:33] I am using a pc with intel and nvidia gpu. [08:33] kingplusplus, yes both the local and the remote must be connected to dns for that to work [08:33] kingplusplus, or you can have the hostfiles on both machines set to the right thing [08:33] Mathisen: storageservicemanager - KDE PIM storage servicce [08:33] Is there a way to switch btw the two automatically depending upon the need at the moment? [08:34] abhishek_, yes is the short answer [08:34] rifter: that is hard work so it means i can’t login to the server when am not in my local pc, may abroad etc [08:34] Using the nvidia settings application, it makes me log out to make the switch. [08:34] abhishek_, I think the nvidia-settings tool does that [08:34] rifter, how? [08:34] kingplusplus, no as long as it is on a dns server that other dns servers talk to, a registered domain, then you can conect from anywhere [08:34] Any ideas guys?? [08:35] abhishek_, there should be a setting in there that says use one processor for desktop and another for 3d appllications. It's been awhile since I used it [08:45] https://www.meetup.com/Tallinn-Linux-User-Group/events/235592843/ [08:45] https://pad.riseup.net/p/i8NdLC35RZTG [08:45] meetup in Tallinn [08:45] rifter, my question is detailed here http://askubuntu.com/questions/853037/switching-between-intel-and-nvidia-gpu-grahpic-cards [08:45] by english [08:53] have a good night everyone [08:55] Hi can someone pls tell me which ports are used by apt-get? my sys admin (a windows guy) has been tightening the security settings; now all outbound ports are closed by default and I need to let him know the exat minimum requirements. does the firewall need to open just ports 53 (udp) + 443 (tcp)? thanks [08:56] abhishek_: bumblebee used to be a way, but I think it is deprecated now. I think the supported way is to use nvidia-prime === Piper-Off is now known as Monthrect [08:56] abhishek_: but that does not do what you want, as you need to restart X to switch between cards [08:57] hateball, yeah. Any other way you know? [08:57] anyone know a good program to save the state of my windows on each of my workspaces? [08:57] as in, which windows goes where [08:58] abhishek_: Nope, I shun hybrid gpus [08:59] devbie, I believe apt-get uses port 80 by default [09:00] so port 53 and 80 [09:01] for DNS and HTTP respectively [09:01] Myris: thx [09:08] snapcraft === ubuntu is now known as Guest88903 [09:17] ruTorrent does not see network drive. any solutions? [09:27] I just applied some patches and when it was done my mouse had it's x and y axis changed, anybody else seeing this? [09:34] hi sll [09:35] is rkhunter safe to use? [09:35] jac76: "some patches" is not very helpful [09:35] jac76: if you mean regular Ubuntu updates, you can review what was changed in /var/log/apt/history* [09:35] not sure how to be more specific about the patches [09:35] it said patches were available and I let them install [09:46] term.log seems to have more readable text in it. [09:47] even so, there is a lot of stuff installed during that patch [09:49] also patched, no problems [09:53] Hello everyone [09:54] Is there a software to edit OneNote's files (.one) ? [09:54] well, there is some python stuff, some imagemagic stuff, some dhcp stuff, a ubuntu-release-upgrader-core thing (1:16:04.18), [09:55] I don't see anything in the upgrade that would specifically target my wireless logitech mouse [09:58] what advantages does add-apt-repository have apt-key + cat? It seems to pull depend on half of the internet just so it add repositories a bit easier [09:58] I see only one warning message: update-rc.d: warning: start and stop actions are no longer supported; falling back to defaults [09:58] I mean, I have it in build scripts and I'm not sure I want python on my server === spammy is now known as Guest48531 [10:14] imrg, could you upload them to a hotmail/outlook account and then edit them online? [10:15] Maybe I could try that Jazzy_J [10:16] Last solution I can use a Windows VM, but if I could work on my machine that'ld be better [10:17] I understand. I use many devices, so I keep my working copies on various cloud services. Makes transferring from one system to another much easier. [10:17] hey guys how do yuo make a live usb on xubuntu [10:18] when power is low, what the system will do? [10:19] usually [10:20] hi, I am new to Linux. Needed some help on some issue. [10:23] I installed Ubuntu on my friend's laptop which had Windows 8 already installed in it. I chose dual boot. But, now I am not able to access ntfs partitions in when I log into Linux. [10:23] LinuxNovice, we are here to serve what questions do you have? [10:23] It doesn't access the ntfs partitions which were created in windows installation. [10:24] hibernation issues most likely [10:24] yep [10:24] and Windows doesn't recognize the ext4 partition I created for Linux. [10:24] LinuxNovice, hmm what version do you have? maybe install the ntfs tools? but .. they should be there. Did you encrypt the windows partition? [10:24] No, I think. [10:24] hey guys how do yuo make a live usb on xubuntu [10:25] LinuxNovice, windows can't read ext4 .. there were some programs for awhile that let you read ext2 partitions.. I don't know what state they are in now [10:25] Mathisen: can you please elaborate. [10:25] rifter, then, ext4 partition can be accessed by only Linux? [10:26] LinuxNovice, install ntfs-3g " apt install ntfs-3g " then " mount -t ntfs-3g -o ro /dev/sdx /media/windows " for example sdx = your ntfs partition [10:26] LinuxNovice, there is tools to read ext4 for win but im not so sure about write suport [10:27] Mathisen: Will that solve the problem. I mean can I access ntfs partitions in Linux? [10:27] yes [10:28] LinuxNovice, usually yes. Windows doesn't know what to do with it. However there were windows tools to read those partitions at one time that stopped being maintained for awhile. I am gonna check what is going on there [10:28] thanks Mathisen [10:28] FireStriker, this page covers making the usb stick https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick [10:29] FireStriker, this seems to detail another method of doing the same thing https://www.pendrivelinux.com/creating-an-xubuntu-live-usb-from-cd/ [10:29] ok. Will try that. [10:30] Thanks a lot guys, for your help. === D is now known as Guest9393 [10:32] i dont have the disk creater tool === for{} is now known as VorbeDeDuh [10:36] hello [10:36] anyone home [10:36] just me here then [10:36] :( [10:37] getting coffee.

[11:07] The thing is, I've check my mail.log under /var/log and in that date and that time there is no mail send... [11:07] Do I have to look in other place? [11:07] Thank you for the help === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [11:16] Juanete: it is possible that your machine has been compromised, but it is more likely the spam headers were faked so they appear to come from you === spammy is now known as Guest20526 === EriC^ is now known as EriC^^ [11:23] trying to install a newer kernel I get this error http://pastebin.com/Vi7AdCmf [11:34] ducasse: thnks a lot for the answer. Someone is telling me that even lookin at my mail.log, it is possible to have the PHP code to send mail if some hacking has been done in the machine [11:35] how is the best way to check all the code in the server having Ubuntu and plesk installed? [11:35] Juanete: a lot of stuff can be hacked to send mail, but the odds are it's just faked headers. [11:37] ducasse: that's what I'm telling my hoster but they don't give me more info. How to look if that header is true? I mean if you have the date, time and header, how would you look into your server to see if that happened? is therea ny place, log to chcek even if hacked, that a email has been sent from the server? [11:38] Juanete: it can be *extremely* hard to tell if you have been hacked, but i strongly suggest you get someone who knows how to read email headers take a look at it first. [11:39] Juanete: not an expert on this, but what mail server app are you using?

[11:42] *for bug [11:42] **bugs [11:42] Juanete, this exact thing happend to me also, for me it was the joomla contact page that someone had managed to use the php mail fuction with [11:43] my host shut the site down until it was fixed :( [11:44] EriC^^: Mathisen the thing is that in my mail.log I didn't find the message that they are telling me there is a spam. So I have another question [11:44] Hi, I like to do local mirror of ubuntu for provisioning system instalation, But I dont want to mirror everything, but just files are requred by ubuntu installer, how can i do that? [11:44] section 'main' is enough? [11:44] Do a ubuntu server needs a mail server for sending mails with php mail?

I have only previously done this with apt-get or a package manager.. so I wasnt sure of A) Where to get the ko file. B) How to install it after I had it.. can yiou just plonk it in /lib/modules/kernel-name/drivers/net for example ? [14:28] :P [14:30] oh and more importantly.. how to find out which driver I needed for the device.. herh [14:31] how can i make rofi use space for moving downwards?

[14:31] i used '! rofi.kb-row-down: space' but it doesnt work [14:32] Kingsy: normally you don't install addtional drivers, driver modules just come with the standard kernel image. addtional drivers must be compiled for the running kernel version, which is not an easy task for a beginner. plus this external drivers mostly have bad code quality because hardware manufacturer don't give a f*ck about code quality. [14:32] other settings like those regarding colors are respected [14:33] wtn4726: ah I see [14:33] but because this is a kernel driver it should work if we just slot it in ? [14:33] because it has already been compiled against it? [14:33] does anyone here use rofi? [14:33] Kingsy: better stick to the drivers that come with the kernel. [14:33] This is mostly new for me so sorry if I am off on the wrong track.. :P [14:34] wtn4726: got ya [14:34] and ax88179_178a is a driver that comes with the kernel? Its just not been packaged ionto the iso? [14:34] Kingsy: because once they made it into the official kernel, they got some code review. there is an exception, the so-called staging area. [14:35] Kingsy: yes, ax88179_178a is included. but the mini image does not have it. [14:36] ah ok [14:36] so that should make this jbo easier.

[17:31] i tried lsusb but I see nothing but my mouse [17:32] RNeville, nvidia seems to have the best support nowadays for most linux OSs [17:32] coy: that may be because it is connectid in charge mode, then it will do nothing but charge.

[17:39] Hi all, I got a question? I mounted windows shares permanently with CIFS, everything run smooth but mount fail during boot process I suppose due to Home folder encryption. What can I do? [17:40] ducasse: Bashing-om all I see is lines about AMDGPU, nothing about amdgpu-pro [17:40] all I see is the developer options to turn on usb debugging [17:40] granted I feel like even with the OS drivers, I should be getting better performance than my GTX760 [17:40] coy: no, this is a box of options that only appear when usb is connected, and it should be under notifications.

[17:44] ok my phone only indicates a "Battery full" no additional options when I plug it in... I attempted it a few times now. Does Ubuntu have anyway of detected the phone? [17:44] *detecting [17:44] coy: not if the phone is in the wrong mode, it needs to be in mtp or mass storage mode. [17:45] i tried using mtpfs but it won't work [17:46] ducasse: thanks for checking. My benchmarks I ran seem to indicate that it's active, but my game performance in dying light and other games is abysmal [17:46] I will look at my phone more for either option you just suggested [17:47] tgm4883: i hate to say so, but that matches what many others have told me about those drivers... [17:47] tgm4883: so i think it's a common problem. [17:48] :/ [17:48] tgm4883: have you tried the amd forums?

[18:19] Random832: always mondered if cmd is really the same as alt, or not =) [18:19] LinuxCrazy: depends on application. [18:19] LinuxCrazy: 'wine' can work well for some [18:19] does it work on all? [18:19] LinuxCrazy: otherwise, virtualbox with complete windows install can work for others [18:19] enyc, if you are running a cross-platform app or x11, generally option is alt, and command is "super" [18:19] LinuxCrazy: no, just the same as 'do all windows programs work on all versions of windows' ;p [18:20] ok. how much space does the virtual box consume? [18:20] ducasse: So different question, how to mount samba disc to folder? My samba disk is ext3 file system, can I use something like this? mount -t smbfs //servername/myshare /mnt/servername/myshare -o username=myself [18:20] LinuxCrazy: as much diskspace as you give it.. you would need windows install image and license of course [18:20] if suppose I install win8 in virtual box. [18:20] Someone suggested installing linux-firmware-nonfree a while back to fix my wifi issue. I've installed it. [18:20] LinuxCrazy: you can set the virutal disk space as you like [18:20] ok. [18:21] LinuxCrazy: but... worth _trying_ 'wine' with your particular application, it MAY work more than well enough [18:21] It means complete windows install in virtual box?

[18:22] LinuxCrazy: that tends to be a total pain rebooting, access to data, etc [18:22] LinuxCrazy: its much nicer to use both at once if it works for your applcitaion combination [18:22] LinuxCrazy: so you don't need to keep rebooting and restarting everything and all that nonsense [18:23] LinuxCrazy: did you search in the appdb above??

[20:43] Guy1524: why don't you delete compiz config and see what happens when logging into unity? [20:43] akik, so when I put sda5 on /home, then installed software/updates are still on the main partition, right? [20:43] no, I did do sudo apt upgrade though [20:43] but this sounds like a plan [20:43] Guy1524, fresh install 16.04 ?

[20:44] a while ago [20:44] Guy1524, fresh install ? [20:44] fub: the installed packages will not be on /home [20:44] it was fresh 6 months ago [20:44] akik, yeah, so the plan: mount sda5, remove everything, copy everything from current /home to /sda5, then remout as /home ?

[20:48] ill try backing them up and seeing if that works [20:48] Guy1524: that's not compiz config if that's what you mean, config is probably somewhere in .config directory [20:48] xangua: its not user based [20:49] for some reason I cant run ifconfig [20:49] akik, mh, I have not played with partitions and uuids [20:49] but I may run later into a problem when my current / is running out of space [20:49] Guy1524 - we don't use net-tools anymore, you should use ip instead [20:49] I'm just moving my problem to some days later now [20:49] Try [ ip link ] [20:49] so maybe the best solution is to tackle it now and move everything [20:49] it says this command could not be located because /sbin is not included in the PATH environment variable [20:50] i am inclined to believe that running unity as root might work [20:50] is that possible [20:51] Guy1524, maybe we messed you .profile or path === InceptionTime_ is now known as DeadEnd [20:51] *your [20:52] Guy1524, at system level, not user [20:52] how can I restore that [20:52] akik, what do you think of this: a) mount sda5 b) copy every file from sda6 to sda5 c) run grub to boot from sda5 ? [20:52] Guy1524, what did you do lately ? [20:52] I have working ubuntu unity laptop I am using right now, so I can copy any files over [20:53] I can send you history [20:53] fub: you need to check the uuid of /dev/sda5 and change it in /etc/fstab [20:53] fub: but you know, this is a risky operation [20:54] Guy1524, echo $PATH [20:54] akik, why do I need to change the uuid? [20:54] fub: your /dev/sda6 and /dev/sda5 have a different uuid [20:55] btw guys, sorry if I take a while to respond, my internet is terribly slow [20:55] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23529215/ [20:55] here [20:55] fub, a better bet would be to just comment out the old line in fstab...just in case [20:55] akik, right. And when I copied everything from sda6 to sda5 and then run grub again, grub may detect the OS on sda5 and add it to the boot loader so I can boot from it, can't it? [20:56] th0r, I still dont get why I need to change this file [20:57] fub: your system tries to mount / according to the uuid information in /etc/fstab [20:57] fub, if that is true...you should reconsider the whole idea [20:57] fub: when you run sudo update-grub, the grub configuration will be also updated to reflect this [20:58] now ifconfig works for some reason [20:58] Guy1524, echo $SHELL [20:59] Happy Thanksgiving everyone [20:59] I get /bin/bash [20:59] Guy1524, no idea, sorry [21:00] hello [21:01] Guy1524, just give a look at ~/.Xauthority ownership and if you have file owned by root in your home [21:01] akik, th0r: https://paste.pound-python.org/show/iAryBBJtRARBfsvmxA99/ -- shouldnt this work?

[21:03] .gvfs [21:03] fub: on laptop screen, it looks good :) can't be 100% certain it will work [21:03] its a folder and there is nothing in it [21:03] akik, this should also be with nearly no risk [21:04] not sure why it even exists [21:04] <_d-> If there is any moderator of Ubuntu community around please be attention to update the article about install Ubuntu on SDCard , it's not support all type of Sd Cards in markets.

[22:55] = [22:55] hey guys, I asked this question earlier but nobody was able to solve it. When logging into unity, the desktop hangs (this affects all accounts). Here is my ~/.xsession-errors file: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23529677/ [22:55] hmy my theme is funny looking, :S [22:56] how r u ? new to linux, doing computers for years but finally took the leap :-) [22:56] I have tried many things, however none of them have solved this issue [22:56] ls [22:56] Thegamekeeper: :) congrats! :) U were running windows before? Guess i'm OK, but a bit tiered. [22:57] Guy1524: :/ I'll see if i can see the log [22:57] Guy1524, what release are you on? [22:57] 16.04 LTS [22:57] joachimhs: For Debian, I had good experience with network-based installation. [22:57] Guy1524, 64 bit or 32?

Is the ubuntu-desktop package still installed? [22:59] those are the big things I have tried, I have also tried some other things which did not help [22:59] yes [23:00] joachimhs: right, if you can erase both of them (one for install image, one for new system). [23:00] Guy1524, is this install an upgrade or was it a fresh install? [23:00] this was a fresh install of 16.04 [23:00] and then I upgraded to 16.04.1 [23:00] Guy1524: what do you get if you run this: upstart-udev-bridge --help [23:00] and it has worked since I did that a few months ago [23:00] joachimhs: Then I guess it would work. [23:00] have you tried reinstalling unity itself? === daniel is now known as Guest17787 [23:00] yes [23:01] why is the answer "reinstall binary packages" ?? [23:01] joachimhs: (one could make a dry-run in a virtual machine) [23:01] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23529708/ is what I get [23:01] ikonia: it might be the answer, but they're jumping to conclusions :) [23:01] Because Ubuntu is windows [23:01] Anyone know who to reset the keyboard? etc/default/keyboard was changed to swap caps lock & ctrl keys and now I cannot reset back [23:01] Guy1524: and how are you running this if the desktop is not starting?

[23:02] gyre007, does this happen in openbox or only in unity? [23:03] Guy1524: did you add any third party repository? [23:03] maybe, let me check [23:03] Guy1524: it smells like unity is starting with the wrong $PATH setting, as it complains about not being able to find essential programs. Did you mess with files in /etc, such as /etc/environment or /etc/X11/ > [23:03] ? [23:04] yokisuci.... i think its a learning game.... just need to put the time in...iv run all 3 but linux seems to be my go to, so i thought why not do it on my main machine [23:04] no, not that I recall [23:04] what's the content of /etc/environment at the moment? [23:04] these are all the ppas I have added: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23529715/ [23:04] WINEARCH=win32 [23:04] Guest17787: Maybe try ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration ' .

[23:13] yokisuci: yeah its a nice clean GUI, just trying to meet ppl on here for more help & info [23:14] Thegamekeeper: (Y) have you tried XFCE? [23:14] Guest17787: Great - ( I did have my reservations as to how effective it might have been .. ) [23:15] whyameye: you may be able to set those in /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d -- I'm not sure if that is used only for the resolver instance of dnsmasq or also for its dhcp cousin though. [23:15] yokisuci: not yet...any good? worth installing? [23:15] Bashing-om: Do you know how to permanently disable the cap lock key? I tried in start programs setxkbmap -option caps:none , but sometimes it seems to come back on, not sure if its a virus or a hack. [23:16] Guest17787: Did you try in the BIOS? [23:16] Seveas: there's no files in that directory. I'm thinking there must be a configuration somewhere else? How does it know what ip addresses to start assigning? [23:16] Guest17787: what's the output of gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options [23:16] Juanete: you mean F2 on bootup? I don't remember ever seeing it as an option there. [23:17] yeap [23:17] it should be, depending on the computer you have [23:17] whyameye: it autodetects something usable. The diretory is empty by default, but you can add files to it, see man dnsmasq [23:17] Thegamekeeper: yeah it's more lightweight then mate. If you don't have a thing for Gnome 2, i would recommend installing Xfce. :) [23:18] Guest17787: Did you try setxkbmap -option caps:none [23:18] Thegamekeeper: but i've changed to tiling WM so don't use mate or xfce anymore. :/ [23:18] Guest17787: Look here: http://www.howtogeek.com/194705/how-to-disable-or-reassign-the-caps-lock-key-on-any-operating-system/ [23:18] Juanete: yes he did. But gnome may override that, hence my question :) [23:19] ok [23:19] I'd go for the BIOS [23:19] won't be there [23:19] yokisuci: cheers mate.... iv got I5, 500 GB SSD, 8 GB RAM , so running good, but i can always go faster..... i might buy 16 GB RAM as my x-mass pressie lol [23:19] Guest17787: unity as the DE ? do you have a keyboard app indicator icon in the top panel. ? [23:21] Thegamekeeper: haha i got i5 on the laptop, but only Core 2 Duo on the desktop. :( haha then you don't need a lightweight DE anway ;) [23:21] Bashing-om: yes [23:22] Thegamekeeper: anyway, think i'll try too sleep. Have to get up tomorrow. >.< [23:22] Thegamekeeper: night [23:23] yokisuci: nope :-) im in the process of instead of fixing everyone elses pc's to finally building my water cooled system... got i7 etc sitting just bits and bobs to buy.... im off work tomorrow .. nice chatting...catch u later [23:24] Guest17787: I no longer run unity, so my memory may be real hazy ,, but can you not change the behavior of individual keys from that app ? [23:25] Guest17787: what's the output of gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options [23:26] Bashing-om: they're hiding it quite well these days, but with gsettings you can still set it [23:26] Bashing-om: what do you run instead of unity? unity, and especially it's upstart dependency are beginning to irritate me enough to consider switching.
