[00:00] hi everyone [00:01] Does anyone knows how to fix Razer Chroma DA on Ubuntu 16.04? [00:01] The buttons stop responding somethimes [00:02] tgm4883: http://pastebin.com/VcAmDT20 this? [00:02] but switching to another mouse the problem seems to fix [00:02] linux_user: What returns ' grep Prompt= /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades ' ? [00:03] Prompt=lts [00:03] oh, sorry Bashing-om I thout was for me, my bad [00:05] Razer_Chroma: NP .. as to your mouse issue , sorry I can not help there . [00:20] Jordon_U: my end goal is to have a computer where I can test out multiple OSs. I don't want a dual boot, but quadruple boot. Ubuntu will be the first (actually already have windows 10 on the system, but I won't really be using that) I want to set up about 3 different distros to run VMs in for Web dev, but I want to be able to have one data partition for all including the VMs. What I don't know is if I can save data to a sep [00:20] arate partition when using a VM. [00:21] CentOS, Ubuntu maybe even BSD [00:24] incognito-dg, sounds like you have your plan ready, go for it [00:30] hello everyone how I can install the drivers for the Intel HD Graphics 520 card (Skylake GT2) on Ubuntu 14.04.5 [00:32] that fresh GPu needs kernel 4.8 with supported intel drivers IIRC, install 16.10 [00:33] OerHeks, for ubuntu 14.04.5 the drives is out? [00:33] ? [00:33] Jordan_U: boot-repair converted my system to EFI nicely. [00:33] angeltrusty1404l, not that i know of [00:34] angeltrusty1404l, i am not going to advise to use the drivers from the intel site, then you are on your own [00:39] andywork: I am aware that installing the 4.7 kerenel has worked in some cases : https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2333832#post13531896 . [00:39] angeltrusty1404l: ^^ sorry andywork . [00:40] np man [00:44] Good morning all [00:44] what is this and how can i resolve this? [00:44] N: « 50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist » dans le répertoire « /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ » a été ignoré car il utilise une extension non valable [00:44] E: L'opération updates n'est pas valable [00:45] i was trying to get openvpn working earlier, and i somehow broke my internet. my computer thinks its connected to wifi (next to me), but it cannot ping google [00:45] help please? [00:46] knittel, is this 16.04 lts or 16.10? [00:46] knittel: at some point, you told apt (dpkg) to upgrade the unattend-upgrades package and (iirc) not take the distribution version of the conf file, perhaps backing it up (I can't recall if it does that by default when you select that option). So it created a file with an invalid suffix in the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d directory. It's just a notice (note N: ) [00:46] 16.04 [00:46] knittel: that file will be ignored, as it says -- so you can either delete the file, after confirming you don't want to take whatever changes were in it, or you can leave it and ignore the warning [00:47] that i was guess already, but tx for say that [00:47] i was thi nking to still get the updates if i can [00:47] i'm not yet do know what i can ignore and what not [00:48] knittel: and yes, you will; but you gave an invalid subcommand? [00:48] knittel: i don't know what command you ran to get that message, since you only provided the warning text(s) [00:48] it was un update from 15.10 to 16.xx [00:48] and yes i guess i chose the wrong line [00:49] it was a multiple choice question so to say & not easy to read [00:49] knittel: right, and that was an eol upgrade, too, so there can be issues there [00:49] knittel: not necessarily wrong, btw [00:49] i did the update by synaptic i think so [00:49] so the terminal only showed me what it did [00:50] without asking [00:50] knittel: that is to say, there's nothing wrong inherently with saying you don't want a distribution's conf file, if you had local modifications === matthew__ is now known as EvilMaster [00:51] ok, i leave it then because i dont have the command [00:51] knittel: what command? [00:51] so understandeble you guys can not help me out [00:51] not a prob yet [00:52] so as told i installed by logiciels et mises a jour de upgrade === gallo is now known as Guest28303 [00:52] and i opened the terminal only to follow the process [00:53] its quite different then wi ndows :) [00:53] but i like it [00:54] its a complete new world :) [00:56] hi all [00:58] Hey all. Still having trouble with booting into 14.04 LTS. Recently attempted adding nomodeset to grub, hasn't fixed it. [00:58] previously posting as 'Gimmickless', now using IRC on phone. [00:58] so I have this 2 boxes of ubuntu running with mate desktop environment and was wondering/(and strongly hoping!) that it would be possible to have the 2nd's boxes desktop as my second desktop on the left (workspace 2). Would that in any way be possible? [01:03] The problem: Ubuntu boots up to the splash screen, but cuts out to a black screen with an unblinking cursor after a couple seconds. ALT-CTRL-F# doesn't work for all values of #. [01:04] *of the first box evidently === guest170 is now known as gimmickless [01:07] nfisher, synergy perhaps ?https://symless.com/synergy/ [01:07] !info synergy [01:07] synergy (source: synergy): Share mouse, keyboard and clipboard over the network. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6.2-0ubuntu3 (yakkety), package size 769 kB, installed size 3433 kB [01:07] gimmickless: it's a known bug. reboot, enter boot menu and remove "splash quiet" from the kernel line. [01:08] OerHeks, hmk thanks for the suggestion, ill check it out === eedee is now known as mkpgrmfreeagn [01:12] [ubuntu] One version of Ubuntu running on two different machines - redd.it/Ubuntu [01:12] doggu, please no bots here [01:17] Hi! I am trying to install Ubuntu 16.10 on a Thinkpad S431. I booted the installer off of USB, and it freezes on the "Setting up the partitioner" step. How can I get Ubuntu installed? [01:17] good morning oerheks [01:18] trhy from dvd Alan? [01:19] This computer does not have a DVD drive. [01:19] dont know then, sorry, i have installedfrom dvd [01:19] not by key [01:20] and if a computer have not dvd rom i use an external [01:20] i installed ubuntu since 2009 with the same usb stick [01:21] then you can explain to alan oer :) [01:21] I guess I will need to get an external DVD drive. [01:21] Alan-r, did you make free space before booting? [01:22] No, the hard drive has a 15 gig NTFS partition that I want to use. But did not get the chance since it crashed as partitioner was starting. [01:23] i think you have 4 primairy partitions already, the installer does not like that [01:24] Alan-r, boot in live mode, remove this ntfs, as ubuntu cannot install on that anyway [01:25] How do I boot in live mode? I did not see that option. [01:25] I have the normal Ubuntu 16.10 ISO. [01:26] Sure you passed that screen, install ubuntu <> try ubuntu [01:26] blackflow: Something seems wrong. I followed your suggestion and ran update-grub. The splash screen still shows up. That should not be, I don't think. [01:28] i'm permitted a question oerheks? [01:28] i have 1 hdd, 1 tb [01:29] can i run 3 linux on that disk and have only 1 swap partition? [01:29] I do not have the Try Ubuntu option. I can Install Ubuntu Server, Test Memory, Boot from first hard disk, Rescue a broken system. [01:29] knittel, i believe you can as long as you shut down before switching distros [01:29] knittel, never done that myself, but is should be possible [01:30] knittel, swap cannot be accessed by an install if another install is currently using it [01:30] in the past i had a lot of compuetrs, now only one [01:30] glitchd +1 don't use hybernate/sleep then [01:30] so i need to be careful :) [01:30] where could i find that? [01:30] OerHeks, #winning lol [01:30] anyway its just experimenting to see what is possible or not [01:31] and also to look wich distribution i like most [01:31] i see, glitch, but anyway 1 computer can not run 2 OS in The same time [01:31] at lezast i have never done that :) [01:31] knittel, right.. [01:32] knittel, well actually, you can. its not suggested, but it is possible [01:32] with 1 Tb i would not create headaches if your ram is just 4gb/8gb [01:32] 2 gb :( [01:32] my ram is sh.. [01:32] My Ubuntu installer does not have a Try Ubuntu option. Do I have the wrong ISO? [01:32] knittel, upgrade [01:33] but i know about 32 bits and that stuff [01:33] Alan-r, yep [01:33] my distros are i386 [01:33] knittel, but do you have a 32 bit cpu [01:33] I'd been installing ubuntu 16.10 a number of times in a vmware vm. It's hit or miss that files in /var/lib/dpkg/info/* are corrupt. I saw many references to this through google-foo. Is it common to randomly have this corruption? [01:33] onjly i have a nice big hdd thats all :) [01:33] and some knowledge, but windows based [01:33] Ok! Which ISO do I need for a live USB system? [01:34] Alan-r, just download and install unetbootin [01:34] Alan-r, install/live is one iso, this screen > https://assets.ubuntu.com/v1/49a92ce6-install_1.jpg [01:35] Thank you!!!!!!!!!! [01:35] OerHeks, yes that is correct but is is possible to download an iso and not be given the option to boot a live session [01:35] OerHeks, there is a right and a wrong iso for the live session option [01:36] I've been directed to ask about how to determine a "package" for a bug report. Am I in the right place? [01:36] glitchd, ?? huh ?? there is no right/wrong iso, and no, i have no knowledge of not booting live iso [01:36] edemco, for ubuntu, yes. [01:36] ubuntu 16.04 [01:37] OerHeks, there have been occatoins when i have downloaded an ubuntu iso, burned it to either a usb or a cd, booted it and not been given the option to boot a live session [01:37] I have an issue with not being able to use my HDMI output connection [01:37] How do I determine the package connected with this bug? [01:38] edemco, hdmi monitor connected before boot? does your laptop ( i presume) have a FN key internal screen/external screen/both ? [01:39] else the package you want to file a bug against, would be the videodriver i guess [01:39] edemco, how are you sure that its the package preventing you from using hdmi output? [01:40] ... after boot. There is a Fn key, but it does not work to make the external monitor light up. [01:40] edemco, have you checked your bios for any relevent options? [01:41] I've checked the drivers (intel card) and made sure they were correct. I've also checked using xrandr. [01:41] BIOS are correct. [01:41] try to boot with hdmi connected [01:41] what distro are yo using by chance? [01:41] Everything was working with 14.04, but not after upgrade. [01:42] edemco, have you tried booting a live cd to see if it works in there? [01:42] Pretty sure that it's a driver issue. [01:42] Yes, tried Live CD with no difference. [01:43] check first from monitors on Unity Contro Center [01:43] to see what driver is in use >> lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' [01:43] maybe XF86Whateverkey not binded [01:44] Also tried upgrading the kernel, with no change. [01:45] [01:45] Used the Intel driver updater to make sure that the driver was right and installed properly. [01:45] linuxlite, awesome question [01:46] edemco, uh oh, intel driver from their site? not supported in ubuntu .. [01:47] file a bug to the intel site then, not sure how [01:48] Well ... according to what has been published, the intel driver is packaged with 16.04 and is the same as the driver that intel uses in the driver updater. [01:48] There was not change. The driver is i915. [01:49] <_28_ria> lambertu: hello [01:49] still, I think it's a driver problem. [01:50] <_28_ria> lambertu: chromium doesn't have the problem, that FireFox has with video playing on youtube. [01:50] _28_ria, have a question? [01:51] <_28_ria> glitchd: yes [01:51] ..? [01:52] Dangit, grub, why won't you stop using the splash screen when I tell you to? [01:52] hi guys, sorry I was away... [01:53] I dont know the fix about the razer chroma not working perfectly on ubuntu 16.04 but using another mouse really solved the issue. [01:53] gimmickless, did u update grub after setting the option not to use the splash screen? [01:53] Ill email razer about that [01:54] glitchd, with sudo and everything [01:55] <_28_ria> glitchd: after firefox got upgraded to V50, my videos on youtube started jurking. Not right away. They play fine in the beginning, but it takes one computer load spike, like, for example, switch a window or make a bookmark, or something else, that spikes the processor quickly, the video starts jerking and nothing, even reloading page doesn't restore the video back to normal, until I close FF and r [01:55] Using Lubuntu 16.04 but this also happened with xubuntu, after computer enters in suspend and I try I try to come back the screen remains black [01:55] <_28_ria> glitchd: eopen it again. It looks like, it's playing and every half a second it flashes several frames of the video from the time of spike. I tried to tweak opengl, graphics settings, compiz, no settings seem to make any difference. And I've rebooted several times already. [01:55] <_28_ria> glitchd: I have a standard opensource nVidia drivers since the ubuntu 16.04 removed the proprietary drivers. Java is installed. Video acceleration is enabled, I think, but I don't know how to check, except, that I think Unity wouldn't work without acceleration. my system is set to get updated daily. chromium doesn't have the problem, that FireFox has with video playing on youtube. [01:56] Can I pin this HDMI problem on a particular package? [01:56] _28_ria: you could try to run unity in low graphics mode [01:57] <_28_ria> xangua: how do I do it? [01:57] good news is, I was able to mash ESC in time to log into terminal mode. Now running apt-get update just in case. [01:57] _28_ria, have you tried purging and reinstalling ff? [01:58] gimmickless, try removing then purging and reinstall ff [01:58] _28_ria: sudo apt install compiz-settings-manager , search for the"unity"plugin and in the bottom you will find the option [01:58] gimmickless, maybe something got mucked up in the config files somewhere.. [01:58] glitchd: what is reinstalling supposed to do? [01:59] xangua, read my last reply and youll find out [01:59] <_28_ria> glitchd: no, It just got autoupdated. In the previous version, it didn't have this problem. Will purge delete my FF profile? [01:59] _28_ria, more than likely, yes [01:59] _28_ria, but you can move it, then reinstall and move it back [02:00] glitchd, ff = firefox? [02:00] yes [02:01] <_28_ria> xangua: Ah, I was looking through unity plugin in compiz, but didn't notice the low graphics option. Thanx, I will try and see if it helps [02:01] of all the programs that could bork up a boot program, I would not expect a web browser to cause it. will try anyway after rebooting post-update. [02:01] gimmickless, wait, what? [02:02] gimmickless, that was a typo and it was meant for _28_ria [02:02] haha! figured as much. [02:03] gimmickless, sry i didnt catch it [02:03] gimmickless, good thing you did [02:03] np [02:06] <_28_ria> xangua: Does enabling low graphics mode in Unity just makes Unity to put less load on graphics card and but the card will still accelerate videos and games, or it will disable acceleration and games, that require acceleration will not play properly? [02:08] <_28_ria> xangua: I mean, does it switch the graphics to some compatibility mode or it will just lower the bells and whistles in Unity itself? [02:09] Okay, splash screen still comes up even when I told it to. ESC gets me into command line login. [02:09] OerHeks, any idea how to identify the "package name" for a HDMI output problem? [02:10] *told it not to [02:10] So I am here using the intel graphics driver on 16.10 and am getting some errors "The public key is not available" [02:11] Bray90820: When are you seeing this error message? [02:12] startx fails either when initializing built-in extension DRI2 or loading extension GLX ("Fatal server error: no screens found") [02:13] Jordan_U: In the intel graphics tool when I try to install the driver [02:14] I see that Bray90820 used the intel graphics tool as well. [02:14] Eddinn: ? [02:15] _28_ria: if what you want us having a better performance on videos or games maybe you should switch to a lighter desktop environment like xfce [02:15] ciao [02:18] Gentlmen! (or gentlepeople I suppose), I just switched VPN providers and this provider has over 100 different connections you can use. Is there a way to import them ALL, populating my username/pwd into the network config manager? Currently it looks like I have to go into network manager and import each one seperately. Surely there;s a way to import them all. (using gnome network manager in unity). described here - [02:18] https://nordvpn.com/tutorials/linux/openvpn/ [02:18] hello [02:19] gurjar, hello back to you! [02:20] can anyone help me with linux ? [02:20] i want to install linux [02:21] sorry wm awseome [02:22] sector327: they actually have 1468 [02:22] I have an issue with not being able to use my HDMI output connection and am logging a bug report after being assisted in AskUbuntu. Now I'm being asked to log it against a package name and have been directed here get help to determine the package name. How do I determine the package name? [02:22] Peetz0r, yeah. haha. But I just want to automate it to get a bunch to choose from [02:22] gurjar, the best way to install is to download the iso from ubuntu [02:23] If you'd put them all in there, thet network-manager-applet would probably get scared and run to his mommy [02:23] woo compiling 4.8.11 for ubuntu... [02:23] I'd pick 10 or so and do those manually [02:23] Peetz0r, I agree. just trying to automate it so I dont have to do it 10c [02:23] 10x [02:23] i need to install wm awesome [02:24] gurjar, wm? [02:24] doing 10 by and is easier than automating it ;) [02:24] wm = window manager [02:24] you're probably looking for awesomewm, which is indeed a window manager [02:25] sector327: but if you really want to automate this, I'd find or write a script that takes their ovpn files and convert those to networnmanager config files. take a look at the files in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ [02:26] gurjar, looks like it is in apt... [02:26] Hello , I just want to buy VDSL + nbn ready modem any suggestion . [02:26] Peetz0r, ;) yup. looks like a bash project to me! I figured there might already be somehting written or existing. I'll write one up [02:26] no its a environment [02:26] gurjar, yes it is [02:27] and you can get it : apt-get install awesome... [02:28] meanwhile, startx fails because none of the modules exist. the heck. [02:28] a desktop environment is not really the same as a window manager, altough a window manager is often a central part of a desktop environment - you may not need (or even want) a full desktop environment if you already have a window manager and other parts to go with it [02:28] gurjar, you can have multiple environments installed at once, and your login manager will allow you to select which to load... [02:28] yeah but i facing problem to install it can you help me? [02:29] Hello, I have a file I'm trying to unzip in a directory, but I get the message no such file exist - even though it appears to be in directory [02:29] gurjar, try: sudo apt-get install awesome. [02:29] .. [02:29] i did [02:29] and [02:29] and? did it work? did it fail? if it failed, how did it fail? is there any error message? [02:29] we really need more information to help you. [02:30] next step pls ? [02:30] If it installed gurjar, then you need only logout, then in the login screen, choose awesome [02:30] okay thanlk you \ [02:31] RNeville, might want to check to see if it is a zero byte (in size), maybe it didn't "download" properly [02:32] thx squinty [02:33] squinty, it is 22.1kb - showing under properties, so it is there [02:34] trying to run this command: cd Downloads && gunzip -v ~/Downloads/linux-brprinter* [02:34] but get message : no such file [02:34] why [02:35] you don't have to cd into a folder and at the same time use the full path. it not the cause of the issue but anyway === Wulf4 is now known as Wulf [02:35] but... is it actually a gzip file? not a regular zip? of any other type or archive/compression?

[02:42] ? [02:43] coaxial: no, elementary OS isn't supported here [02:43] Jordan_U: Faster boot time. With a mobile i5 (dual core), I'm booting up in ~4.7 sec on the kernel now (and 1.4 in userspace). =) [02:44] coaxial, i dont think elementary OS is pulling from the same source as ubuntu? [02:44] dave0x6d: What is the boot time with grub, if you remove the default 3 second delay (which allows you to enter the grub menu if you need to)? [02:45] no idea, didn't time it. =P [02:45] just have no need for grub on a VM. [02:45] Help please.

[02:57] hello))) [02:57] tomed: Not unless it was a supernet attack [02:57] Against the ISP [02:57] wtf is supernet attack? [02:57] RNeville, "UNIX is very simple, it just needs a genius to understand its simplicity", Dennis Ritchie [02:57] Or a DDoS attack [02:57] RNeville, one of my fav quotes. [02:57] Which might get to you depending on if the line is shared [02:58] alectaylor it was ddosattack.exe 1.1.1.25 [02:58] (and how their load balances are configured) [02:58] rdh: "unix is user-friendly. it's just very selective about who its friends are" - someone probably ;) [02:58] Peetz0r, LOL. [02:59] now thats , lol - rdh [03:00] tomed: Well, your ISP limits how much bandwidth it will allow to your IP address. If more is sent than you have paid bandwidth for, then your ISP will start dropping packets. Dropping packets is very efficient, and so I expect that it would take a serious DOS to affect your neighbor's traffic. [03:02] Linux 0x90 4.8.11-custom-ubuntu #1 SMP Mon Nov 28 20:58:14 EST 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [03:03] tomed: I guess it matters at what point they start dropping packets, but still it would require a much bigger DOS to stop you and your neighbor from being able to access the internet than it would to just stop you. For further discussion on this though, please move to ##networking. [03:05] <_28_ria> Jordan_U: You mean DoS [03:05] <_28_ria> Writing DOS, creates confusion with an OS [03:07] unless you account for oversubscription (or whatever the correct term is) [03:08] e.g. the total capacity of an area is less than the sum of the capacity of every individual connection [03:08] often dramatically less [03:09] e.g. I happen to know that where I live, then entire neighbourhood fiber connection goes trough a 2x 10G ring. there are 1000 houses which can all get cheap gigabit fiber if they like [03:09] Peetz0r: Please move this discussion to ##networking as it is not Ubuntu related. [03:10] true ;) but I could also stop because the point is made [03:15] If I have a GUI based program that needs to be run as root is there wa way to launch it from the application strip? [03:16] <_28_ria> MannyLNJ: gksu name_of_gui_prog [03:16] <_28_ria> MannyLNJ: or sudo name_of_gui_prog [03:17] <_28_ria> MannyLNJ: either way, it's just gksu will ask for password graphically, but sudo in console. [03:17] _28_ria: MannyLNJ: You should not use plain sudo with GUI programs as it could lead to ~/.Xauthority being owned by root, preventing you from being able to log in. [03:18] _28_ria: Also, sudo in a launcher won't work as there is no terminal for the user to enter their password into. [03:18] MannyLNJ: What app are you trying to run as root? [03:18] Jordan_U, I am trying to execute a complied program called f3-qt located in /home/emanuel/f3-qt-master but it needs ROOT access [03:18] Guys, I want to install a wifi adapter. But I only have windows drivers. Can I install windows drivers on Ubuntu [03:19] subho: Identify the adapter. [03:20] subho: lspci |& nc termbin.com 9999 [03:20] subho: Send us the resulting URL [03:20] MannyLNJ: What is f3-qt and why does it need to be run as root? [03:21] subho: Tell us the make and model. [03:21] does any body know why the online store shutdown or quits when opening up right a way? [03:21] subho: You more-than-likely do not need to install drivers. [03:21] using ubunut 16.04 64bit [03:22] vfw: http://termbin.com/lucf [03:22] Jordan_U, f3-qt is a GUI interface to the F3 suite. F3 allows you to test flash drives to see if the quoted capacity is correct. I collect novelty flash drives and many of them are 16GB drives programed to report as 32GB or larger. [03:22] vfw: But, in windows I can create a AP hotspot [03:22] Jordan_U, more info at http://oss.digirati.com.br/f3/ [03:22] MannyLNJ: wow. I was expecting fake flashdrives to be smaller, lige 2GB or 4GB ;) [03:23] vfw: While in linux it shows device dowsn't support AP mode [03:23] vfw : I suppose it's driver problem [03:23] Peetz0r, most of the fake ones are 14-16GB. I get them from wish.com and when I show they are counterfit I get my money back. [03:23] subho: You don't have it installed right now, do you? [03:24] vfw: I have it inserted in the USB port, but not specifically installed the drivers [03:24] does any body know why the online store shutdown or quits when opening up right a way? [03:24] does any body know why the online store shutdown or quits when opening up right a way? [03:24] does any body know why the online store shutdown or quits when opening up right a way? [03:24] does any body know why the online store shutdown or quits when opening up right a way? [03:24] vfw: Cause I couldn't find any [03:25] subho: So, what is the make and model? [03:25] MannyLNJ: Then gksu would indeed be the solution. [03:26] subho: lsusb |& nc termbin.com 9999 [03:26] subho: Send us resulting URL [03:26] query= on boot my laptop displays boot screen and then screen is dark... what do i do? [03:27] Jordan_U, great I see how to launch gksu from a terminal but how do I add it to the bar on the left side? [03:29] Hey there! I have an i7-4790 CPU, a quad core with HT, 4 cores, 8 threads. In load measuring tools those 8 threads are treated as if they were full cores. Here's my question: How do i know which thread runs on which core - t0 & t1 = c0, t2 & t3 = c1, ... - anyone stumbled across documentation? (This is not about process management, as in a running application. I'm talking "processing pipelines".) [03:29] MannyLNJ: You need to create a launcher for it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToAddaLauncher [03:29] subho: Can you tell us what WiFi device you have? [03:30] vfw: I am giving you the link. Just a moment [03:30] vfw: http://www.ebay.in/itm/600-Mbps-RT5370-USB-WiFi-Adapter-Wireless-WiFi-Dongle-With-External-Antenna-WiFi-/331863400698? [03:30] Thats it. [03:31] vfw: I think it's model is RT5370 [03:31] subho: iwconfig |& nc termbin.com 9999 #Send resulting URL [03:33] vfw: I did it yesterday. Send it to you only. It looks as if its working. But since I can't create AP, so there must be some problem. [03:33] Anyways : http://termbin.com/hdc1 [03:34] faekjarz: you generally don't care :) [03:35] faekjarz: but you'd probably get that from lscpu and the threads per core and cores per socket value(s) [03:36] subho: That's strange, it appears to be working but not showing in the output of lspci. [03:37] subho: But I'm not sure that this particular device is fully supported in Linux. Is this a desktop computer? Or a laptop? [03:38] Its desktop. [03:38] When I boought it on ebay it says supported in Linux [03:38] nacc: oh, i do care. That's why I'd like to prove my theory, and identify which thread runs on which core. ;) lscpu is new to me and produces an interesting report, but it doesn't tell the thread number to core relation *reads the manpage* [03:39] They did provide me with a download link for linux. I did download the files. [03:39] However can't install it [03:39] Since no run or config files [03:39] so typing ./config produces a page full of errors [03:40] faekjarz, i doubt it will be one core these days, this might help http://stackoverflow.com/a/11450459 [03:40] subho: Where did you get the software? What is the name of the file? [03:41] vfw: I can give you the download link. It's just 2 mb. [03:41] vfw: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hifqv9zkhfu2cw0/DPO_MT7601U_LinuxSTA_3.0.0.4_20130913.tar.bz2?dl=0 [03:42] vfw: oh, right its a mediatek device [03:43] subho: In order to compile from source on a Ubuntu system you must first install build-essential package: sudo apt-get install build-essential [03:44] vfw: It shows my build-essential is already up to date [03:44] OerHeks: thanks for the effort. but nope, i'm talking about hardware processing pipelines (8 cores, that are actually 4 w/ HT), not process management (no pids involed here) [03:45] any advice? [03:45] vfw: I did follow some tutorials on the net. They all finally do the same i.e. ./config , sudo make , make instal [03:45] faekjarz, no PID? then there is no process going on. [03:46] read carefull what you just asked :-D [03:47] vfw: Could you download the file and see as to hoe to install it?? [03:48] subho: Did you uncompress the file? [03:49] vfw: Yes I did. But there are no such files as config [03:49] subho: tar zxvf DPO_MT7601U_LinuxSTA_3.0.0.4_20130913.tar.bz2 [03:50] OerHeks: ok, there're two types of threads: Type A is a process, sub-process, parallel process, that runs in the kernel, and has a PID. Type B is related to Intels Hyper-Treading tech, 4 cores w/ HT = 8 logical cores, or as a mater of speaking 8 threads. (i think our misunderstanding is caused by redundant nomenclature) :) [03:50] subho: Did you cd to the resulting directory? [03:50] vfw: Yes I did [03:50] subho: ./configure [03:50] problem solved [03:50] bye [03:51] vfw: When I do that it produces huge no. of errors [03:51] good day all [03:52] And ls -a the directory, there are no ./configure files [03:52] subho: ./configure |& nc termbin.com 9999 [03:52] subho, no configure indeed, but a make-file, pretty clear howto in that folder > README_STA_usb with steps to do [03:53] is it possible without an extreme extent of modificatioon(i'm ok with remastering ISO) to have an install image for ubuntu server to generate a VNC server during the installation process? [03:53] subho: make [03:53] I'm attempting to use hyper-v. But, I don't want to use a windows client to connect to a terminal to install the image [03:54] subho: Send me the URL for the output of ./configure [03:54] vfw, that driver he got is for kernel 2.4/2.6 ... [03:54] OerHeks: Thank you! [03:55] vfw: http://termbin.com/id7f [03:55] vfw, you can safely download that file from that dropbox, clamav says oke [03:55] subho: You need to find more current software for your device. [03:56] OerHeks: You've already looked at it? [03:56] subho: uname -a |& nc termbin.com 9999 [03:56] the make command also gives me errors. [03:57] subho: What veresion of Ubuntu do you have? [03:57] uname -a |& nc termbin.com 9999 [03:57] Ubuntu 14.04 [03:57] vfw, yes, now i found all he needs is firmware, driver itself is available.. http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-linux/203041-wireless-usb-adapter-ralink-rt2870-ubuntu-14-04-a-post959433.html?s=695d963adf1a3fd5ce69ee47c01cdb54#post959433 [04:00] subho: Follow the above link [04:01] OerHeks: But my is RT5370.

[04:18] jcsh: on the cd? [04:18] jcsh, vnc without x ? [04:18] yes, sir [04:18] no [04:18] it's not a live system, it's an installer [04:19] thank you [04:19] are you familiar with hyper-v at all Ben64 ? [04:19] nope [04:19] damn [04:19] you can install a vnc server afterwards [04:20] right, at that point i'd use xauth [04:20] framebuffer for vnc https://github.com/ponty/framebuffer-vncserver [04:20] Amm0nl: I am doig it...but isn't it for RT5572. Mine's RT5370 [04:21] thank you, OerHeks. I'll look into it.

[04:29] im trying to migrate my ubuntu disk to an ssd [04:31] subho, looks like you need patched version to make it compile [04:32] Amm0nl: So, how to do that?? [04:33] hola [04:34] I'm back... anyone want to try (again) to help me get Xorg accepting tcp connections? [04:34] Amm0nl: I do have Windows drivers [04:35] Amm0nl: Can I use NDISK wrapper to install them? [04:35] vfw: the x11vnc thing worked for what I wanted to do yesterday, but today I have a 3rd machine I'd like to be able to run X11 apps from [04:35] Though I'm not familiar with them [04:35] subho: What version of ubuntu are you on? [04:36] 14.04 [04:36] rez_ninjah: You can't use the same solution for the 3rd computer? [04:37] vfw: it doesn't actually have a monitor on it. that one is headless. [04:38] I can work around this, but it's getting a little tiresome. linux is supposed to be getting easier to use, not harder. [04:38] it would be nice if my computer just did what I told it to do. that's one of the (many) draws for me of using linux.

[04:41] Amm0nl: There is no firmware-ralink in ubuntu repo [04:41] correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't the UUID referring the filesystem, not the disk? [04:41] Amm0nl: It says unable to locate package [04:43] subho: Are you still in DPO_MT7601U_LinuxSTA_3.0.0.4_20130913 ?

But it seems its the driver for RT2870 [04:46] vfw: I don't think it would work for my device RT5370 [04:47] subho, someone build a patched driver in the german ubuntu-forums, threads are ancient.. https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/c300ru-usb-rt2860-kein-ieee-802-11n/#post-2831641 [04:47] subho: Yes, I see that as well [04:47] there is a driver attached [04:47] RT5370 is basicly RT2800 [04:48] OerHeks: So it's the same? [04:48] see https://wiki.debian.org/rt2800usb [04:48] ..RT5370, RT5372, RT5572 [04:49] ubuntu needs such pages, but advanced users know where to check [04:50] !info firmware-ralink | OerHeks [04:50] OerHeks: Package firmware-ralink does not exist in yakkety [04:51] subho: sudo apt-get install firmware-ralink [04:52] vfw: Unable to locate package firmware-ralink [04:52] Amm0nl: Trying method B [04:52] subho: Yea, that's what I thought.

You guys are great. [05:31] or download the 16.04 iso and see if it works [05:31] Such quick replies [05:31] Anyway, thanks for trying [05:31] subho, then maybe there was nothing to pipe then^^ [05:31] hello [05:32] Amm0nl: I used lsmod |grep rt2 |& when termbin.com 9999 [05:32] It showed use netcat === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo [05:32] That message appears when when there's nothing to show [05:33] Amm0nl: I would use 16.04, but on my ancient hardware its pretty slow. Actually tremendouly slow [05:33] So, I use 14.04. Anyways will give it a try [05:35] subho, you could use lubuntu or xubuntu then [05:35] I have tried both, it works better, but no where near to 14.04.

Now I want to access the server over one more hop (at home - outside the network) but that machine does not have virtualgl installed. Any suggestions? [10:57] whothehellami How are you accessing it from home? X forwarding? VNC? [11:00] theblazehen, I got an account right now so I can connect to the 1st server with ssh. but I the documentation says that I have to use "vglconnect -s" to the 1st and vglconnect -s to the 2nd server [11:01] theblazehen, does this answer your question? ^^ [11:03] whothehellami pretty much, yeah [11:04] So what you can do is use an ssh proxycommand to directly connect to the first server. You do use a vglconnect when you're on the same network, right? [11:04] quick one: I'm about to install php7.1, seems I don't need the ondrej ppa now I've updated - already have php5 installed. Am I OK to run them simultaneously? [11:05] whothehellami https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSSH/Cookbook/Proxies_and_Jump_Hosts add to ssh config at home with jump host being the host at the office or whereever [11:05] (on 12.04 LTS) [11:06] luxpir, "I'm about to install php7.1, ...already have php5 installed" ? [11:06] how would you do that, without ppa/external sources? no 7.1 for 12.04 ... [11:06] pchoo, do you hotplug HDMI? [11:06] qui est de france, [11:07] theblazehen, so you mean it should be possible to create a tunnel instead of connecting to host1 and from host1 to host2? [11:07] OerHeks: I just updated and was offered php7.1 and all related packaged [11:07] *s [11:07] only other sources I have in my sources.list are for nginx [11:07] let me check cache policy [11:08] luxpir, sounds like nginx provides that, we have no 7.1 yet .. [11:08] whothehellami yes. Then you connect to first host directly via the tcp tunnel that's created, rather than over 2 interactive ssh sessions basically [11:08] *Sorry* I had the ondrej PPA already in place. Many apologies... [11:09] luxpir, glad you found out :-) [11:09] OerHeks: thanks for pointer. so if I install it from there, I can run alongside 5? [11:09] maybe proposed gives 7.1, not sure [11:09] Amm0n: I have HDMI plugged in before I boot and unplug after it is shut down, so no. That setup has been how I've been using the laptop since I got it 6 months ago [11:09] whothehellami performance will likely suck though. Can I recommend running a vnc server at the office or whereever and connecting to that from home? [11:10] luxpir, err, i guess not. to be sure, reask in #ubuntu-server [11:10] OerHeks: OK, will do [11:10] OerHeks: thanks. [11:11] That's what I do. Desktop runs in a lxd container, with vnc server, and virtualgl connects to the hosts x server with a unix socket passed through to the container, and have my thin client connect to the vnc server [11:12] Have terrible performance when using straight X over tcp, on gigabit connection. My resolution is larger than most though. 9280x2560 [11:13] theblazehen: have you tried x2go? [11:14] kwk Yes. It runs over ssh though. Too much processing speed needed. Thanks for the suggestion [11:15] kwk worked great with my netbook when I used it. Currently I use tigervnc server and tightvnc client (tightvnc client lets you set compression level to 0, others have a minimum of 1), can watch 2560x1440 video at ~30 fps and ~870 mbit/s bandwidth, around 70% pu usage [11:16] hi [11:16] i am trynig: apt-get update , but i have this error: Some index files failed to download.

[11:28] no [11:28] i am on vagrant [11:28] oke, then 403 is blacklisted, not sure why for that official repo [11:28] Can anyone point me in the direction of where to go to get more information on the deeper inner workings of Linux and how decisions and direction are made for the distro? For example, where can I find (or start) a discussion on why there isn't a centralised contact manager / address book? [11:30] Or perhaps even better, the Linux equivalent of https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AddressBook/AddressBook.html [11:31] t0th_-_, you edit manually, remove br. >> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse [11:32] remove br. in all lines? [11:32] i see, i need put br. in this line? [11:33] no, remove them like my example [11:33] then you end up in the main server [11:34] Gargoyle are you looking for user facing stuff, or inner workings? [11:35] Inner workings - seems to be that there is no Linux equiv of that doc which is why every other bit of software writes their own addressbook (for example). [11:36] In my mind, this should be something that sits below X, KDE, Gnome, whatever. [11:37] not work [11:37] very strange [11:37] where i find the oficial source.list on internet to download? [11:37] Gargoyle well, there is ldap, but thats equivelant to active directory really. And kde / gnome etc came before those projects would happen. You can probably share gnomes ones with other things via dbus - just send some pull requests [11:38] active directory is a combination of LDAP, DNS and Kerberos [11:38] it's not exactly the same [11:38] SCHAAP137 Right. Bad comparison. [11:39] theblazehen: My point, what if it's a non gnome system? [11:39] http://www.tldp.org/ https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/Documentation and installing arch -> gentoo -> LFS should give you more on how it all fits together [11:39] Gargoyle Well, then, we just need someone to develop a DE agnostic one [11:39] prometheus depends on libjs-handlebars [11:39] http://packages.ubuntu.com/yakkety/prometheus [11:40] it's not available on Ubuntu 16.10 [11:40] why was it removed? [11:40] I just noticed "something" continuously trying to access 127.0.0.1:4101 on 16.10 system. When it fails, it just tries again. My guess is 10-20 probes a second and it does not seem to stop. What is this? [11:40] so to be clear, this is traffic on the lo interface [11:41] Braille protocol, Quadrox GuardDVR, Quadrox GuardNVR, Quadrox WebCCTV DVR, Quadrox WebCCTV NDVR, Quadrox WebCCTV NVR, Blackberry Enterprise Server, NewOak [11:41] Trojans that may use this port: OptixPro [11:41] Wow...

[11:43] It's my own machine, trying to access my own machine [11:44] and while it certainly looks weird, i don't think its malicious [11:44] (yet anyway) [11:44] you could throw Wireshark at this traffic [11:45] Already did. It's just trying and trying and trying... No connection is ever established [11:48] tmus, ss -nlp | cat [11:48] Also, I can't see which PID is doing this which suggests to me - systemd (or indeed a rootkit of sorts) [11:49] tmus: lsof -i:4101 [11:50] SCHAAP137, yeah, nothing is listening on that port - but something is probing it [11:51] Good morning/afternoon! n00b question: Is there a 100% free "Ubuntu/Canonical Landscape" ?

[11:54] tsglove: no problem [11:54] SCHAAP137, xbrlapi, which seems to be a braille thing, was causing this traffic. killall xbrlapi && apt-get purge xbrlapi should take care of this, although i don't know why it's doing that [11:56] ah, braille stuff, okay [11:56] how to i login to a different user in terminal without exec bashrc? === hc is now known as Guest67454 [12:06] Hi folks [12:08] hi [12:08] sruli sudo -u otheruser -i [12:09] Guys quick question, why does my ubunto works with FN keys and debian not , since debian is a unconfigured ubunto, what am i missing, thank you and hope to hear soon from you !

[12:31] debian guys dont have a clue what i am talking [12:33] p, netcrime run sudo os-prober , then sudo update-grub [12:33] tehfreakjoe, this is not the place for debian issues [12:33] tehfreakjoe, debian is definately not just a unconfigured ubuntu [12:33] BluesKaj: I cannot get in to Ubuntu. It always boots Windows [12:33] netcrime where did you install grub (if you used grub?) [12:34] donught: I dont remember choosing to install it on ubuntu installation [12:34] so not sure [12:34] netcrime then you probably installed it to a partition that your bios will never be able to reach [12:34] netcrime, ok , hold the left shiftkey down right after the post/BIOS page [12:35] donught, grub installs automatically [12:35] BluesKaj: what that will do? (I will have to restart this pc to try) [12:35] netcrime either configure the windows boot manager to boot ubuntu or install GRUB to the front of your main disk and configure GRUB to boot windows [12:36] it should show your grub menu [12:36] Hmm ok will try [12:36] BluesKaj ubuntu can install the GRUB bootloader to the partition of ubuntu not the front of the disk [12:36] netcrime are you only using 1 disk? [12:36] yes donught and ubiquity should do so automatically [12:37] donught: Yes I do.

[13:29] p_d, from google's site [13:30] download .deb file from google, after installation it will add a new repository to have update using apt [13:31] I have already downloaded it from there.. after clicking on downloaded file it redirects me to something called "Ubuntu Software" and then after clicking the page on software never loads [13:31] there's comma after clicking^ [13:32] if ubuntu software fail to install it, you can use a terminal and type: sudo dpkg -i [13:32] Okay [13:32] nor (if dependency are needed): aptitude install file.deb [13:33] hello. My 'journalctl' appears to be missing a bunch of logs. 'jounalctl --list-boots' only shows the current boot, but not any of the previous ones. How can I fix this?

[13:35] ikevin, at present chrome downloaded file isnt there.. Is there any command to download Chrome? [13:35] ikevin: no error , some messages which are same when i try direct commandname or sudo commandname [13:35] p_d, you can download it from here: https://www.google.fr/chrome/browser/desktop/ [13:36] jackhumm, not easy to debug without error messages :x [13:37] hi is trusty still the current release? [13:37] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/eF61pOrq/ [13:37] and if not how do i upgrade to the current version? [13:37] jackhumm, take a look at the return code (sudo scrypt.py && echo $?) [13:38] i am trying to setup this https://github.com/captn3m0/hackertray [13:38] but the problem is , i want it to run once my computer get connected to internet [13:39] hello. My 'journalctl' appears to be missing a bunch of logs. 'jounalctl --list-boots' only shows the current boot, but not any of the previous ones. How can I fix this? [13:39] jackhumm, start it with systemd, you will not need sudo [13:39] ikevin: i added it to if-up.d [13:40] if-up.d script are executed as root, no need to use sudo [13:40] jackhumm: https://liquidat.wordpress.com/2014/03/18/howto-using-dbus-to-query-status-information-from-networkmanager-or-others/ [13:40] i think you should do it with dbus [13:41] i am using this http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/166473/debian-how-to-run-a-script-on-startup-as-soon-as-there-is-an-internet-connecti [13:41] http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/47695/how-to-write-startup-script-for-systemd and just add a dependancy on network [13:42] if it was not x it would have suggested systemd [13:42] but you probably can not use the network target if you use a laptop [13:44] so , this wont work [13:45] obiwahn, network-online.target is a target that actively waits until the nework is "up", where the definition of "up" is defined by the network management software. Usually it indicates a configured, routable IP address of some kind [13:46] so , what is the solution wise guys? [13:47] why running hackertray command on terminal shows the tray icon , but when i do sudo hackertray , nothing shows up [13:47] i think the problem lies here , [13:48] try: sudo DISPLAY=:0 hackertray [13:48] dont you want to drop privileges? [13:49] then su would probably be the right tool [13:49] no , it wont show up when i use sudo [13:50] it can be a restriction in the script, to refuse to start as root [13:50] jackhumm, why you need sudo ? it'a a gui application .... why do you need to start it before X ? [13:50] Hey guys, I am trying to install ubuntu touch on my nexus 4.

[13:52] jackhumm, may i ask you why ? [13:52] It says, I have held broken packages. Can anyone clarify as to what error is this?? [13:52] jackhumm, it'a a panel indicator ... how can it run without X ? [13:52] ioria: because i want this program to be sitting on my tray , when i start my computer , and my computer doesnt somethimes get connected to internet [13:52] ioria: i have no idea [13:53] subho: sudo apt -f install [13:53] jackhumm, usually, you put an indicator in Autostart [13:53] vfw: Still the same error [13:54] subho: sudo apt autoremove [13:54] hi [13:55] vfw: Even after it I get the same error.

[13:56] jackhumm, you can make a script that check if network is available, if 'yes' start the indicator .... i don't think you need a unit service [13:57] vfw: Does it have to do anything with universal archive being enabled or not === blackhole is now known as Guest61368 [14:03] hi, does someone know were to find drivers for Dell XPS 13 9360 (2016 DE)?

[14:43] question: it's in your USB drive, .trash directory [14:43] xangua: the ubuntu trash shows nothing [14:43] Press control+ h to see it [14:43] ^ ^ ^ [14:44] question: it's in your USB drive [14:44] xangua: i don't get it, i deleted it from the drive, [14:45] He's saying its not in your system trash, but on the .trash directory on the flash drive. any directory starting with a . is hidden so you need to use CTRL + H to see hidden folders. [14:45] BluesKaj: It says cannot access archive: No such file or directory [14:45] Errors were encountered while processing: [14:45] google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb === AndChat|294644 is now known as J-PASH [14:45] Once you can see the .trash folder you can remove it from there [14:45] xangua: usually when i delete a file from a USB drive it shows up in the ubuntu trash, after which i can restore it or empty it, not the case in ubuntu 16.10 [14:46] daku_: why the strange extra steps in the new ubuntu? [14:46] p_d, what says? [14:46] question: what you're saying makes no sense actually [14:46] It has ever been that way [14:47] BluesKaj: sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb ..I'm trying to install google chrome [14:47] xangua: makes perfect sence, you delete a file, it is in the system trash. in 16.10 it is in a hidden file that i have to access then delete again? [14:47] question: I dunno, I literally only use flash drives to install OS on, so I wipe them after every use so I don't know how it was before or is now. [14:48] p_d, which folder is the deb file in...downloads ? if so so click on it and ithe self installer should start === nat is now known as Natkeeran [14:49] p_d, there may be a short delay before the self installer appears [14:50] BluesKaj, yes it's in Downloads.. After clicking it it opens "Ubuntu Software" and it page loads endlessly there no response at all [14:50] xangua: is there a way to have the trash function as in older ubuntu versions? [14:51] hi all [14:51] BluesKaj, Ubuntu software isnt responding me I've waited for 1 Hr. just to see whats there in Internet section but no respone page is loading endlessly [14:52] question: no, as this was never the "older function" [14:52] p_d, open a terminal, cd ~/Downloads, then, sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb [14:52] question: I dunno, now that I'm thinking about it. I was under the impression it had always been like this. I'll try it since I'm running 16.04 but I think its always been like that. Windows and Mac do the same thing if using external drives. [14:52] No one here uses kubuntu? [14:52] xangua: of course it was, you delete a file from a USB and it shows in the system trash, i was just using 16.04 this morning [14:52] Biscuit-: the folks in #kubuntu do [14:53] Biscuit-, I use kubuntu, what's your question?

Does anyone have any pointers on how to delete *everything* in a filesystem except a list of given paths? I'm creating docker files and I'd like to empty out as much as possible from within the container. The simpler the better! [14:55] Biscuit-, in that case join us in #kubuntu [14:56] BluesKaj, it runs ..Please read this response - http://pastebin.com/brLUacrR in the end it says error..Then I searched for Google Chrome it shows chrome I opend it as of now its running fine. [14:58] p_d, ok good [14:59] people, is anyone else having problems with the 16.10 trash? deleting files from a USB makes them just disapear and not go to the system trash. is there a fix? [14:59] What do I do with my Ubuntu Software? What if I want to download a software? [14:59] Is their any way to fix it? [15:00] I've tried using find with -regextype posix-extended and using -not and -regex to specify a pattern which will be negated, but it seems to strangely ignore the pattern sometimes. [15:01] BluesKaj, Chrome is not running fine..There's no picture in Icon of there instead there's a question mark [15:01] question: apparently this is a Nautilus bug that dates from 2006, perhaps you used other desktop environment in 14.04?

[15:54] !latest | superguest [15:54] superguest: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. [15:54] superguest: that is for yakkety, not xenial [15:54] nacc I know [15:54] superguest: why do you need the later version? [15:54] superguest: your options for getting newer software are to upgrade or to build from source. [15:55] going to be pretty tricky to get the newer version to work without upgrading to 16.10 [15:55] superguest: but nichomachus' question is a very releavnt one [15:55] nicomachus b/c a function I need is not available in 2.8.8 [15:55] ok, what function? [15:55] nicomachus, nacc, I consulted #ffmpeg before coming here.

[15:57] superguest: are you opposed to upgrading to 16.10? [15:57] superguest: simplest answer is upgrade to 16.10, imo [15:57] wait, isn't the new HWE released with yakkety kernel and packages? [15:57] only kernel and x [15:58] nicomachus: but yes, 16.04.1 is out [15:58] it's .2 tho [15:58] nicomachus: won't help in this case [15:58] ah, oh well. superguest are you opposed to upgrading to 16.10?

[16:07] hey, anyone have experience with openACS ?

[17:22] yocs0000: See in the first screenshot I post it was the starting screen. From there if I select any section Internet, Audio,Graphics any the application doesnt load any data see the second screenshot same this happening over.....and this happens recently I downloaded google chrome ,deb file I double clicked then it directs me to "ubuntu software" then it loads endlessly and if you see the first screenshot in upper side there's three option All, Installed, [17:22] Updates these all dosnt upon at all just load endlessly ..If you want any screenshot again tell me [17:22] posted* [17:22] misque: " ubuntu for work, so it is imparative that it works well " then it is LTS release that is advised that you "should" be running . [17:22] hello [17:23] whats up doc [17:23] i just installed ubuntu 16.04 [17:23] its awesome.. even i force using it with 1gb ram [17:23] planning upgrade to 3gb [17:24] nacc: when i delete a file from a HDD it disapears completely, but still takes up memory space (usually it goes to the system trash where i can preminantly delete or recover). [17:24] How do I get snap-installed apps to appear in Dash? [17:25] any alternatives for xampp? and more user friendly. [17:25] Can anyone help me with my headphone problem? [17:25] misque: how are you 'delet[ing] a file from a HDD' ? [17:25] misque: and what do you mean by 'takes up memory space' ? [17:26] Bashing-om: true, but i do not need support, i use it for academic work, not enterprise, pluse i was hoping the buggy 16.04 would be fixed, but seems not, slower to copy/paste and this issue with the system trash [17:26] banzai27: Great .. but if ya running the top of the line editions of 'buntu you will find 4 gigs of ram a better experience ; though 2 Gigs will suffice . [17:26] nacc: i press the delete button in my keyboard to delete my files [17:26] misque: so you mean in a GUI/nautilus/files [17:27] misque: so you mean it's not been moved to the trash? [17:27] nacc: so if i have a 10GB HDD for example and in it is a 9GB file, when i delete the file (and it doe not show up in the trash) i assume it was perminantly deleted (line rm in terminal) but when i check the HDD memory 9GB are still occupied [17:27] nacc: yes in the GUI [17:27] Moscherkobold: Honestly, this is the 1st I am aware that there is any problem with the "trash" . What is the issue exactly - be aware I am not a GUI personality type . [17:28] Check that, Firefox mis-rendering is a symptom of my having, apparently, totally borked my font system... [17:28] bashing-om : 4Gb are a bit too much imho.. i dont use multitasking that much [17:28] misque, ls -dl /home/$USER/.local/share/Trash/ [17:28] nacc: not moved to the trash, but disapears from the nautilus window and i cannot find it [17:28] say i wanna join a channel and it ask me to register, how to do it? [17:28] ioria: hmmmm yes it is there, ok, but how can i perminantly delete it for free up space? [17:28] misque: what ioria said; also 'memory' is not the term to use (hence my confusion) -- you're referring to disk space, I think? [17:29] misque, who's the owner of Trash ? [17:29] nacc: yes disk space, sorry i am not a programmer [17:29] ioria: nacc ok the file is in the hidden trash directory [17:31] !register > banzai27 [17:31] banzai27, please see my private message [17:31] ioria: nacc how do i delete it perminantly? when i try to delete it, it just returns to the same hidden trash location [17:32] misque: I don't know -- I don't have any such directory here [17:32] banzai27: K,, rule of thumb .. there can be no such thing as "too much ram " . But I agree, U pulled ram from this box for my wife's box and run now with 4 gigs just fine . - for what I do :) [17:32] nacc: this is really wierd, is this a bug, or a new way to use linux? [17:32] misque, please paste ls -la /home/$USER/.local/share/Trash/ [17:33] banzai27: U/I ** .. I did pull . [17:33] ioria: ok 1 moment [17:33] bashing-om : lol...sounds fair [17:33] Bashing-om: I was wondering how he knew your wife.

[17:55] JustTheDoctor: my money says that it's an issue with the script [17:56] then why isnt it even giving me a output log with the output of the script? [17:56] like i said if i manually run the cmd it works, cron doesnt [17:56] ioria anything else I can try? [17:56] JustTheDoctor: I'd have to see the script [17:57] anyone care to share some kicka$$ tweak for Xenial? [17:57] I'm getting desperate :( [17:57] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/Rc8YlWcX/ [17:57] ioria: squinty ok i can delete my file from the terminal, but is this a bug, or just a new way ubuntu wants us to use linux? [17:57] Aiirborne, can you put sudo apt fuull-upgrade in a pastebinit ? [17:57] ioria yes [17:57] misque, :þ i don't know, mate [17:57] this is my cron now: 5 * * * * /votesystems/run.sh 2>$1 /var/log/cron/output.log [17:58] ioria: i don't know, can someone file a bug report about this? [17:58] misque, sure [17:58] JustTheDoctor: you probably want 2>&1 not $1. [17:59] Pici: +1 [17:59] fixed that [17:59] Jeff916: provide more details. What command did you run, what was the ouptut (use a pasetbin) [17:59] Jeff916: *pastebin [17:59] 5 * * * * /bin/sh /votesystems/run.sh 2>&1 /var/log/cron/output.log [17:59] ioria: thanks, i hope canonical fix this, i was exited for 16.10, but this is kind of a basic usability poroblem :-) [18:00] !bug | misque [18:00] ioria: thanks for your help :-) [18:00] misque: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [18:00] misque, no probs [18:00] this is getting rather annoying [18:01] JustTheDoctor: also, 2>&1 should be at the end, I don't think that is going to work the way it's written (You're redirecting 2>&1, but you aren't directing any output to the log file) [18:01] Chr|s: Had a similar issue with redshift when a new kernel was installed on my 14.04 install . I re-installed redshift to resolve . [18:01] @nacc thankyou so much for your answer, I ran the following: http://pastebin.com/DQSTrxej [18:01] 5 * * * * /bin/sh /votesystems/run.sh > /var/log/cron/output.log 2>&1 like that? [18:01] Jeff916: ok, those are the mount commands -- but you said something like umount was failing? [18:02] JustTheDoctor: yes [18:02] ioria not sure what happened but now can't even sudo apt upgrade http://paste.ubuntu.com/23554361 [18:02] fixed [18:02] does the file output.log need to exist or will it create it/ [18:02] JustTheDoctor: it should create it since it's running as root [18:02] Aiirborne, why 1.154 is installed ? xenial is 1.108 [18:03] @nacc yes, I'm assuming using: "sudo umount /dev/sda2" (sda2 is my root partion) should work [18:03] ioria I have no idea [18:03] and does it go every 5 minute's from when its saved or based on 12:00, 12:05, etc? [18:03] Aiirborne, ppa installed ? [18:03] is there a way to fix it I'm not sure what happened [18:03] JustTheDoctor: no, not with the way you wrote it [18:03] JustTheDoctor: you have it set to run 5 minutes after the hour [18:03] Jeff916: why would it? you've mounted directories underneath it, and so it's in use? [18:03] o [18:03] JustTheDoctor: eg. 12:05, 1:05, 2:05 [18:03] ioria that is probably it [18:03] should it be */5 ? [18:04] Jeff916: you shuld reverse the mounts you did, in the order you did ithem, no? [18:04] Aiirborne, you have (or have installed ) mismatching pkgs version [18:04] JustTheDoctor: yes [18:04] Aiirborne, look at /etc/apt/sources.list.d [18:04] with */5 its every 12:00, 12:05, etc? [18:04] JustTheDoctor: yes [18:04] ty [18:04] nacc I exit'd the chroot, I'm a noob and this is my first time I have ever had to use chroot. What commands should I use? Thankyou [18:04] hopefully it works this time! :) [18:04] AMEN [18:05] finger crossed [18:05] or is it crossed finger [18:05] banzai27: please, no color commentary.

NFS? [18:06] Henster: what's the exact error? [18:06] ah.. ok nacc [18:06] sorry for that [18:06] didnt realize the .sh script had to have the full path also ;P [18:06] and my port is open [18:06] ioria this is what that looks like http://paste.ubuntu.com/23554387 maybe thats the wrong xorg ppa [18:06] im using no.ip [18:06] what is the topic again? [18:07] Henster: what's the exact error? [18:07] @nacc are you still there bud?

[18:07] banzai27: see /topic [18:08] "nacc You are my hero :D [18:08] banzai27: but i will say, if you were wondering what you did 'wrong' earlier -- behavior like that is why you get banned from IRC channels... [18:08] Henster: does the traffic reach your server? [18:08] @nacc thankyou so much! [18:08] ioria I shouldn't be I only have intel graphics [18:08] Jeff916: np, do you see the logic? it's basically just going backwards through the list you did [18:08] Henster: I ask what the error is because it's different if DNS is problematic, from no port open, or Apache being misconfigured, etc... [18:09] nacc: i tried /topic and it said you're not a channel operator [18:09] Aiirborne, so how come you have xorg-edgers ppa ? (btw i think you need to purge them all ) [18:09] banzai27: don't run anyting else, just run '/topic' [18:09] banzai27: you probalby tried to set the topic [18:09] @nacc yes bud I understand, I'm trying to learn and thanks to amazing people like you the linux community is what it is :) [18:09] actually im not getting banned "banned".. just doing things wrong with my nick register [18:09] banzai27 do you have a technical ubuntu question? [18:09] i checked on this website if the port is open. also im also runnig a open vpn server ,, i checked on the NOIP,com and can see my public ip address [18:10] 'how can i check if the traffic is reaching the server ? [18:10] ioria probably cause I don't know what I'm doing and just copy and paste things from google when I have a problem [18:10] Henster: with tcpdump [18:10] @nacc thanks again bud, got to go now :) [18:10] Henster: also check if the request is registered in the Apache logs but has errored out [18:10] monkeydust : as matter of fact yes i do...i tried to set up two monitor on my freshly installed ubuntu 16.04.1 and the screen keeps flickering [18:10] Aiirborne, can you paste also /etc/apt/sources.list ? [18:11] i set up 1 vga to dvi i filter and 1 vga directly [18:11] hmm, that time it didnt log anything [18:11] gatta wait another 5 minute's. [18:11] banzai27 ok, then stick to that question and drop the useless remarks [18:11] is there a way to fix that [18:11] useless remarks?

The debian one's are a little behind [18:17] should I need to use sudo first? :/ [18:17] prefix* [18:17] Aiirborne, if i were your, i'll get rid of the ppa and i'll remove whatever you installed from Kali, and remove the source [18:17] p_d not for apt-cache [18:17] ioria is there a way to reset ppa to default?

[19:24] p_d: I do not know vagrant but that is the version you get from repository .... do you need a specific version? [19:26] hi guys. stupid question im not able to get anywhere with GRUB. i followed the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery#Recover_Grub but all i ever get is the grub menu [19:26] nicomachus, hey [19:27] Aiirborne: seems like it will break [19:27] does anyone know why it stopped showing ubuntu as my OS? [19:27] 12.04 if it matters [19:27] Aiirborne: probably best to back up at this point and reinstall and bite the bullet [19:27] ubuntu778: you get a grub> prompt? [19:27] yes [19:28] ubuntu778: type "ls -l" [19:28] no matter what i type there it doesn't show though. only thing the keyboard takes is enter (which gives me a new line) [19:28] odd, try booting a live usb [19:28] EriC^^ i wish I could I'm stuck in a hotel cause my car broke down on the way back home from thanks giving :/ I need to do my school work [19:28] im currently in a live cd now [19:29] ubuntu778: Show the channel what you are working with , from a liveUSB pastebin ' sudo parted -l ' . See what we can do to get you booted . [19:29] but the options it gives me to recover a broken system ; none of them seem to apply [19:29] Aiirborne: any live usb? [19:29] EriC^^ I usually bring one but this would be the time I didn't [19:29] ubuntu778: type "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999" in a terminal and paste the link it gives you here [19:30] Bashing-om/eric i dunno where to type that i get: http://imgur.com/VNyFxt6 [19:30] shell is just 'busybox' not proper shell [19:30] so i cant do things like gpart [19:31] ubuntu778: is that the server iso? [19:31] yes. its headless server. not desktop [19:32] Aiirborne: maybe download an iso real quick and use grub to boot it to get the school work done [19:32] ubuntu778:T hat looks to be a server ( ir minimal ) install medium .. We need to use a desktop medium . [19:33] so 'desktop' version then? [19:33] EriC^^ grub can boot from an iso saved on the computer? [19:33] Aiirborne: yeah it can boot it usually [19:33] Aiirborne: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot [19:34] thats 404 for me. [19:34] EriC^^ wow so I can reinstall this way as well? [19:34] ubuntu778: the link above? [19:34] downloading desktop ver tho [19:34] yes [19:35] ubuntu778: try to execute the shell and then try lsblk [19:35] error 500 now. but im downloading 'desktop' version now [19:35] ok [19:35] Aiirborne: yeah [19:35] lsblk not found. #busybox things. [19:35] Aiirborne: you'd need to have the iso on another partition though [19:35] i think [19:40] Aiirborne: try downloading the 14.04, i haven't had much luck before with 16.04 and grub booting [19:40] Aiirborne: what does your partition table look like? try sudo parted -l [19:41] EriC^^ http://paste.ubuntu.com/23554720 [19:42] Aiirborne: perfect, you can use the swap partition for grub [19:43] Aiirborne: sudo swapoff -a [19:43] Hey guys just quick question. If I have Ubuntu on my SSD and I have a storage hard drive. If i want to reinstall Ubuntu I should be fine wiping the SSD and keeping the storage hard drive untouched? [19:44] then sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda5 [19:44] EriC^^ http://paste.ubuntu.com/23554730 [19:45] CDO: Yep . just be aware of what you tell the installer . [19:45] Bashing-om: Just to wipe that certain partition? And if I'm going to install Windows it shouldn't matter either should it? [19:47] Boa tarde ara todos [19:47] CDO: Well, depends on what the system identifies and what options you use to RE-install . A "install alongside" will default to the 1st hard drive that is "generally" known as sda . A 'sudo parted -l " so you "know" what is . [19:48] Hmm okay maybe I'll come back when I'm ready to reinstall [19:48] Thank you! [19:49] Aiirborne: sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda5 [19:49] Aiirborne: also type sudo nano /etc/fstab and add a "#" to the line that says swap in it [19:49] then save and exit with ctrl+x [19:49] *add a "#" to the start of the line [19:51] hi, can i assign IP to a linux user only? [19:52] EriC^^ http://paste.ubuntu.com/23554753 [19:53] can someone port me to the german channel please [19:54] CDO: Good deal, we are here to help . A stitch in time saves 9 .

Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! [19:55] danke [19:55] how do I remove mic static?! [19:55] what would make an interface name change to eth0@ifxx where xx is an integer (this is in an ubuntu docker container) [19:56] How would i detect on the system if my ubuntu server is direct connected to another computer verses a switch? anything in ifconfig output? [19:57] ok EriC^^ / Bashing-om - im in terminal again [19:57] milkaaxx: assigned how? [19:57] funkster: maybe through MAC address in the IP header [19:58] funkster: ' ip route show ' work for ya ? === captain_fixerpc1 is now known as captainfixerpc14 [19:58] blackflow, i sell an account, i give him an IP address, the user can only use that even if there are 20 in ifconfig... [19:58] ubuntu778: terminal on a liveUSB ? or in the install ? [19:59] Bashing-om: i'd have to test in a bit, but you saying the route output would be different then connected to switch? [19:59] liveusb [19:59] milkaaxx: use how? to make daemons listen on? for outbound traffic? [19:59] den_lesnov [20:00] blackflow, yea, lets say they start a bouncer on 0.0.0.0, it will only listen to his ip, and when he connects to irc, no /bvhost needed [20:00] funkster: Well . will show the IP of the other end . now it cn not tell you what that IP is . weather it is another vomouter, a router or a switch . Here you need to know what is on your network . [20:00] milkaaxx: yes through a container of some kind, lxd, lxc, ... [20:01] milkaaxx: then you assign one IP per container [20:01] blackflow, what should i google .. to start?:D [20:01] milkaaxx: LXD [20:01] ubuntu778: I have lost where we are . catch me up with what we are working with . Pastebin ' sudo parted -l ' . [20:01] blackflow, thanks [20:02] Bashing-om: is a pm easier? lots of traffic in here [20:02] plymouth does makes the monitor flicker and eventually turn off for a while and then turn on again upon checking /dev/sda1. The only time plymouth is displayed correctly is when shutting down or rebooting [20:02] I am running xenial [20:03] funkster, sudo nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24 (or your subnet) tells you something ? [20:03] Bashing-om: http://imgur.com/a/bsZiU [20:03] blackflow, it's a virtual machine.. [20:04] ioria: i need to detect if machine is connected to another computer TO set an ip correctly. [20:04] milkaaxx: doesn't matter, you can have LXD containers in a VM too. [20:04] ubuntu778: Not better, that peer review ( EriC^^ _ is good to have and as well the edification of all looking over our shoulders. If the parts and joins are problem you can set in your irc client to ignore them . [20:05] its webclient so i have no idea how. but that doesn't matter. [20:05] basically GRUB shows nothing- i can't type in grub when it boots. its installed and doesn't load my OS. i'm running server 12.04 [20:05] but i'm currently booted using livecd "desktop" version of 12.04; and i linked gpart here http://imgur.com/a/bsZiU [20:05] parted* not gpart [20:07] ubuntu778: Ouch .. I can not relate with your install - LVM - . I do not know anything about LVM and perhaps encryption . EriC^^ ??? [20:08] blackflow, thank you [20:09] ubuntu778: try sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda5 sda5_crypt [20:10] EriC^^: sorry to be a problem but whats that doing exactly? i need the data to be untouched. [20:13] ubuntu778: decrypting the partition [20:14] EriC^^: okay. sorry to be dense but my issue is grub not detecting the os? i just want to make sure we're doing the right thing [20:15] ubuntu778: yeah, we're on the same page, we need to decrypt the partition to chroot and reinstall grub and whatnot [20:15] okay thanks. [20:16] EriC^^: "device is not a valid luks device" [20:16] ubuntu778: it's not an encrypted partition? [20:16] no; its on a datastore [20:17] ubuntu778: ok, type sudo apt-get install lvm2 [20:18] hm ill have to connect it to the internet.. which.. is far away [20:18] my closest internet is two switches away haha. [20:19] well EriC^^ I downloaded 14.04 then moved it to the new partition but when I tried to boot it from grub it wasn't there and it's not on the new partition now either not sure what happened but I'm downloading again [20:20] Aiirborne: how did you move it to the partition? [20:20] guys, does vim vundle or another packages manager available in ubuntu repos? 16.04 [20:21] EriC^^ mounted the partition to /mnt and then mv .iso mnt [20:22] Aiirborne: does /etc/crypttab have anything? [20:24] EriC^^ I don't see a crypttab [20:24] hhee: Huh ? rephrase for me ? [20:24] ubuntu778: hmm [20:25] Aiirborne: ok [20:25] hhee: no, you'd need to install them manually. [20:25] EriC^^ this time I am downloading it straight to the mount point that will work right? [20:25] EriC^^: ok i have lvm2 installed now [20:26] EriC^^: ubuntu778 Not much help here .. but the only time I have seen LVM on a single disk is when encryption is employed . [20:27] i didn't setup the system; so i'm not sure if/what its encrypted [20:29] Hi, all. I got my self in a bit of a mess, hoping someone can help me, though I probably don't deserv it :D [20:30] what kind of mess is that? [20:30] I have a ubuntu server running 13.04 [20:30] no good [20:30] !ask | Dlabz [20:30] Dlabz: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [20:31] nicomachus: sorry, but I know that asking for out of support version is a problem [20:31] Hi, I am having an issue with Ubuntu 16.04. [20:31] yea you need to upgrade, Dlabz [20:31] can't get support until you do. [20:31] yup, but doesn't work [20:31] so, I need help to upgrade [20:31] Dlabz, what does not work ? [20:32] I've had it fine for the past month or so since upgrading from 15.10, but last night Network Manager seemed to break. [20:32] release upgrade [20:32] As cannot get wireless connectivity, only wired.

Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [20:32] Am running apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade at the moment. [20:32] cant find files [20:32] I am guessing I need to upgrade to 16.10? [20:32] It's just that whenever I checked, 16.10 wasn't available. [20:32] So I am guessing it would now be available? [20:33] aruns: you never *need* to upgrade to 16.10, at least not for a bug issue [20:33] nacc: But Network Manager isn't allowing me to connect via Wi-Fi, only ethernet. [20:33] And apparently this is a common issue on 16.04. [20:33] nacc, no, my ubuntu is so old, it gae me wrong info :D [20:33] thanks, I'll try this [20:33] Dlabz, Well 13.04 is a long time ago. You would have to go though all the realse upgrades from the sequentially. If you have messed at all with your system it is unlikely to work. I would backup and then do a full reinstall. [20:34] aruns: you could try a 16.10 live session, then, and see if it's fixed [20:34] Dlabz, try the link posted otherwise you need to edit sources.list with the new release name ... [20:34] Hello. Can someone tell me what's up with the upstream redis-server package in Trusty? Why isn't it receiving security backports? [20:35] ioria: can you point me to the list, in case I need it later, so I don't need to explain to someone from start? [20:35] It's on 2.8.4. Debian's analogous package is on 2.8.17, and has received multiple security backports [20:35] Most importantly for CVE-2015-8080 [20:35] Hello, i was delete all iptables "iptables -F" and now i can't connect to my eggdrop via DCC? It;'s can by that i delete iptables? How i can restore? Thanks [20:36] !info redis-server trusty [20:36] redis-server (source: redis): Persistent key-value database with network interface.

I thought that it was primarily a thing about copyright status? I suppose that's multiverse. [20:37] !components | monoum [20:37] monoum: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. [20:37] monoum, if you are so concerned, why not install a newer ubuntu ? redis-server Version 2:3.2.1-1 (yakkety) [20:38] OerHeks: honestly, that seems like a terrible answer [20:38] I find it hard to be believe that no one from the community has been concerned about redis 2.8.4 on trusty? I've seen multiple threads online complaining about it without satisfactory outcomes. [20:38] thanks, ioria, so far seems to be working with the updated sources [20:38] Dlabz, ok [20:38] There must be some other political issue preventing the inclusion of important security updates? [20:39] monoum: find the bug report? [20:39] monoum: did anyone file a bug? or submit a fix? [20:40] monoum: political issue...? no. [20:40] monoum: there are only 9 bugs filed against src:redis right now, nonoe of which relate to security issues in trusty [20:42] Like I said, it's been mentioned several times online, and yes, I checked the bug reports. Here's one that seems like it was automatically closed after a referral to the SecurityTeam (which would be irrelevant as a universe package, apparently) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/redis/+bug/1467606 [20:42] Launchpad bug 1467606 in redis (Ubuntu) "EVAL Lua Sandbox Escape (CVE-2015-4335 / DSA-3279)" [Undecided,Expired] [20:42] I guess I just assumed that redis-server is such a widely-used package that this would've come up sooner and have a ready explanation... [20:43] monoum: there was a response for community activity, and then nothing [20:43] monoum: you shouldn't just assume that redis-server is such a widely used package [20:44] Usually go to IRC for the ready explanations that exist but are for whatever reason not showing up on Google [20:45] Yeah, I mean, I guess (?) redis-server may not be widely used. Maybe everyone uses a different PPA for redis. [20:46] But OK, thanks for pointing this issue out everyone. I now have clarity on why the 14.04 package is out of date and insecure. I will definitely be thinking about doing something about this. :) [20:47] Hi i get this error on ubuntu, Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic). [20:47] got it to Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS , thanks ioria and others [20:47] Is there anything official for wxWidget 2.8 (dev)? Because i want to compile a application, and it needs wx 2.8, but i only find 3.0.. (Ubuntu 16.04) [20:47] Dlabz, good [20:48] BarBQ: That's an SSH authentication failure. It means you don't have the things you need to log in to the server you want. Contact your system administrator to get that stuff. [20:48] monoum its a lab machine and i own it. [20:49] monoum: like switching to Debian? :) [20:49] BarBQ: you might try running `ssh -vvv` [20:49] someone_, 2.8 is for trusty, i guess [20:49] Basically i am trying to SSH from ubuntu machine to Centos7 and that is the error i get. [20:49] BarBQ: OK. Configure it correctly. Right now password auth is disabled if you're expecting to input a password. You'll have to update that in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. If you're expecting key auth to work, your key is not enrolled properly on one server or the other. Try Googling for a SSH setup guide. [20:49] !google | monoum: fyi...

[20:51] monoum is there a simple fix? [20:51] On Ubuntu 16.04. [20:51] nacc: So i have to get that version by myself and compile it by myself? [20:51] Has anyone else also been experiencing Network Manager issues on 16.04? [20:51] hey === ubuntu is now known as Guest91994 [20:52] aruns: yeah, LinuxActionShow had a rather negative review about that specific issue. Personally haven't had it because I don't wifi. [20:52] someone_: yes, or maybe run your application in a trusty VM or container? [20:52] someone_, what app ? [20:53] nacc: I visted wx's site and they provide a repo it seems [20:53] does anyone know how to create a xorg.conf file in 16.04? any help would be greatly appreciated [20:53] ioria: iMule [20:53] rhino77: you don't generally need to, otherwise if you konw what you're doing, just create it in the normal place [20:53] rhino77: running Xorg -configure will autodetect hardware and write you a sample xorg.conf in root's homedir [20:53] !xorgconf| rhino77 [20:53] rhino77: The /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is deprecated, but sometimes may still be needed to pass values to specific drivers. See `man xorg.conf` for file structure and syntax. For Ubuntu-specific documentation and more information, see also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config [20:54] genii: thanks :) [20:54] BarBQ: the simple fix is probably enabling password auth and logging in with your password.

Now I'm wondering .. which is faster but at the same time the safest? Waiting for # sync to complete or can I shutdown? Would shutting down still have to wait for # sync , giving me no change in time waited, but less control? [21:14] Finetundra_: K; Sad that bad things happen ..

It tries to find libGL and/or libMesaGL, but cant find it [21:22] dbkaplun: you'd need to do some research on the proper perl regex, of course [21:22] dbkaplun: you are asking for a negative lookahead assertion, iiuc [21:23] dbkaplun: Did you tried putting your regex inbetween ''? like grep -P 'foo(?!-bar)' because bash tries to interpret the ! specially [21:24] someone_: thanks!

[21:35] I mean is that a community 3rd party apache tool? [21:35] ash_workz: i believe apachectl is a debian/ubuntu-ism, yeah [21:35] because I don't think #httpd will help me with that [21:35] ash_workz: no, it's an apache thing :) [21:35] nacc: is there a better channel to ask about it [21:35] ? [21:36] ash_workz: well, actually, i'm not sure, a2enmod/a2dismod is a debian/ubuntu thing -- apachectl may be an upstream tool [21:36] Hi, for some reason my server isn't accepting key based authentication, it just prompts for a password, is there a sshd configuration to enable this? [21:36] ash_workz: what's your question? [21:36] nacc: ooh, TIL. apachectl is indeed a debianism [21:36] nacc: because I am wondering why apachectl -M lists modules as x_module instead of how the mods appear on Apache.org (which is mod_x) [21:36] I would like to keep password based auth in addition to key based authentication [21:36] Key based auth is just not working at the moment [21:37] ash_workz: apachectl has the naming hardcoded [21:37] ash_workz: iirc, it looks at the apache module's ame, then just suffixes _module [21:37] gopnik_: pastebin your sshd_config [21:37] Hey guys. I currently have Ubuntu on my machine and I'm planning to wipe Ubuntu and use Windows. Ubuntu is on my SSD and I also have a HDD. If I wipe the SSD to install Windows my HDD should be fine and not lose any data correct? Here's a paste of fdisk: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23555183/ [21:37] okay, but where does it get it's name? [21:37] ash_workz: what are the 'it's in that question? [21:38] blackflow, http://pastebin.com/MiyzeQ8Y thanks [21:38] gopnik_: PubkeyAuthentication yes [21:38] because I can't be trying to look if I have a module installed if the pub says "mod_x" and who knows if "x_module" is how apachectl describes it [21:38] nacc: ^ [21:39] gopnik_: also, why did you comment out most of the config? That's generally not a good idea [21:39] blackflow: i guess my i have understanding of the permissions is incorrect, 755 behaves normally [21:39] Seveas, not my server [21:39] nacc: would a concrete example help? [21:39] Sorry bad paste... http://paste.ubuntu.com/23555189/ [21:39] I'm just a root user, friends server [21:39] gopnik_: under what user are you ssh-ing in? [21:39] just my user (gopnik) [21:39] ash_workz: what 'pub' ? [21:40] gopnik_: in that case just uncomment the PubkeyAuthentication yes line :) [21:40] Thanks! [21:40] EriC^^ you still there? [21:41] gopnik_: also disable PasswordAuthentication, and set UsePAM no [21:41] <_Sym_> Should I disable tpm in my bios? [21:41] blackflow, not my server, the other users need password auth [21:41] gopnik_: and make sure that your user's .ssh dir and authorized_keys inside are both owned by the user that's ssh-ing in [21:41] what about pam? [21:41] gopnik_: then leave it on [21:41] CDO20: So long as you do not reboot . then sda will not be touched unless you direct so . Does not Windows default to installing to the 1st hard drive (sda ) ? [21:42] gopnik_: and note that if you allow both, pubkey auth has NO security advantage over passwords [21:42] blackflow, I'm doing this for my convinience, not typing in password [21:42] you might wish to use the Match directive and those users who want pubkey, explicitly disable passwords, to regain the security advantage [21:42] I understand the risk of leaving on passwords :( [21:42] Bashing-om: I haven't tried yet. Just wanted to make sure it wouldn't be touched. [21:43] Bashing-om: Also want to make sure that windows will be able to access and use a ext4 type [21:43] drwx------. 2 ME ME 4096 Sep 24 10:13 .ssh are these the correct permissions? [21:43] gopnik_: yup. [21:43] authorized keys has the same permissions [21:43] technically depends on what that dot at the end means [21:44] huh, odd, still not working. I will dig into it [21:44] CDO20: If you are just going to RE-install Windows, I do not see how there could be a problem . But the folks in the #windows channel will be better able to advise . [21:44] nacc: falling back on a concrete example: "An issue was found in mod_cgid." -- says a scan... I don't know what you call the "CVE-*" links... so I said "pub"... anyway; can I rely on `apachectl -M | grep 'cgid_module'` to tell me if I have mod_cgid? [21:44] gopnik_: you mean same class, aka 600 ? :) [21:44] gopnik_, are you sure it's in your home dir? [21:44] gopnik_: the user account has set password and is unlocked? [21:44] ash_workz: why wouldn't you use 'cgid' ? [21:44] gopnik_: journalctl -xe --identifier sshd [21:44] Bashing-om: Perfect. Appreciate the help [21:44] or from the client ssh -vvv [21:44] ash_workz: or use a | regex [21:44] gopnik_: ssh won't allow login into passwordless accounts, pubkey or not pubkey, so the user must have set a password and be unlocked (passwd -u ME) [21:45] CDO20: For windows to see ext4 ya got to install the tools on Windows . Does not out of the box . [21:45] I have a password [21:45] Random832, it is in my home directory [21:45] installation requires that the system have kernel headers. /lib/modules/4.4.0-21-generic/build/include/linux/version.h cannot be found on this system. [21:45] Anyone knows how to fix it ? [21:45] Specifically /home/ME/.ssh [21:45] nacc: you mean just grep 'cgid'; that's great and all, but I'm pretty confident there are cases were that may produce undesired results [21:45] uname -a prints good headers [21:45] Can anyone help me boot ubuntu14.04.iso from grub2? I got the grub menu created but when I boot the iso from grub I get "line 46 can't open /dev/sr0 no medium found" and "Could not find the iso reboot to window run chkdsk /r and fully shut down etc etc" [21:46] nacc: I mean, basically I just want to check if a particular module listed on apache.org as mod_x is installed (reliably) [21:46] debug1: Offering RSA public key: /home/gopnik/.ssh/id_rsa [21:46] debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,password [21:46] This seems to stick out on ssh -v [21:46] ash_workz: you're trying to predictively determine if you're affected by a CVE -- it's better to have false positives than false negatives. [21:46] ash_workz: but that's neither here nor there [21:46] gopnik_: did you read my comment about unlocking the account? [21:46] !info linux-image-generic xenial [21:46] linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 4.4.0.47.50 (xenial), package size 2 kB, installed size 12 kB [21:46] gopnik_: good. Does .ssh/authorized_keys on the server match .ssh/id_rsa.pub on the client? [21:47] nacc: I'm trying to determine if a CVE is applicable to me [21:47] Aiirborne: [fair warning, I have no experience booting isos] /dev/sr0 is a real cd drive, shouldn't that be using /dev/loop0 or whichever loop device you chose to mount the iso? [21:47] hihi: ^^ Package system broke ? or not updated as the above is the kernel you should be up on . [21:47] Bashing-om: Hmm okay. And there's no way to change EXT4 to NFTS without formatting the drive correct? [21:47] ash_workz: i think in general, apachectl outputs "module name"_module for all apache modules [21:47] blackflow, my account has a password, what does unlocking the account do? [21:47] nacc: or rather, if I need to investigate the CVE more closely to resolve whatever impact closing the vulnerability may have [21:48] ash_workz: a module's name is not mod_cgid or cgid_module, but cgid, imo [21:48] CDO20: Vorrect . If ya change the file system type ya get a new partition table . [21:48] Aiirborne, That sounds wrong to me. Why do you think the cdrom driver is loaded (well the format) before the kernel is? [21:48] nacc: well, I'm annoyed at the naming convention entirely [21:49] <_Sym_> what is the intel trusted platform module (tpm) used for anyway... I always wondered why i had that error in dmesg [21:49] Seveas, oh snap this may be it [21:49] one sec [21:49] Seveas younder I have no idea what I'm doing but I did set the loopback loop when I made the menu entry [21:49] <_Sym_> I set it to hidden in the bios and now the error is gone [21:49] ash_workz: that's very unforunate for you; not really the point. Also, I feel like you're reading the wrong text(s) [21:49] CDO20: But if ya gonna RE-install Windows, the installer will re-format the partitions anyway . [21:49] ash_workz: e.g.: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_cgid.html [21:49] Aiirborne: Follow this guide: http://www.supergrubdisk.org/wiki/Loopback.cfg#How_do_you_use_a_loopback.cfg_to_boot_an_iso.3F [21:50] ash_workz: clearly says the "module identifier" is cgid_module [21:50] ash_workz: 'mod_cgid' is the .c file's name, nothing else (at least not guaranteed) [21:50] bashing-om - i heard that i need to link something with something [21:50] about that kernel thing [21:50] nacc: so, I can rely on what's listed under "module identifier" [21:51] ash_workz: i think so, but i'm not guaranteeing anything [21:51] ash_workz: you'd need to test it to see [21:51] _Sym_: https://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/24818.html [21:52] <_Sym_> thanks Jordan_U [21:53] _Sym_: You're welcome. [21:54] hihi: Well, rather beloeve something on your system is not right . ' dpkg -l | grep linux- ' do you see "ii linux-generic ; ii linux-image-generic" in that output ? [21:54] Jordan_U do you mind taking a look at my grub menu entry http://paste.ubuntu.com/23555258 [21:55] getting this when I try to ssh now [21:55] debug2: input_userauth_pk_ok: fp SHA256:RUDlzsiNLVsJhd4y/a8yUL4W5lRdsA0/gGlztMzueUs [21:55] sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed: agent refused operation [21:56] gopnik_: is the key RSA or DSA? [21:56] RSA [21:57] just before that I got debug1: Offering RSA public key: /home/gopnik/.ssh/id_rsa [21:57] And the server accepted it [21:57] Aiirborne: $isofile should contain the full path to the iso, but I would prefer if you used the guide I linked to to make your entry. [21:58] <_Sym_> Jordan_U, it sounds like tpm is not very useful for ubuntu and most people recommend disabling it [21:59] <_Sym_> It sounds like tpm is mostly used for windows 10 [21:59] Jordan_U ok I am trying to use the guide now [22:00] Hello [22:00] _Sym_: Correct. To use a TPM properly in any major desktop distro unfortunately takes a prohibitively large amount of manual configuration. (CoreOS last I looked is the only major distro that supports TPMs out of the box, and it's a distro for containers so definitely not desktop oriented. [22:00] I have a quick question, didn't know where else to ask [22:00] Bashing-om: dpkg -l | grep - linux-generic [22:00] grep: linux-generic: No such file or directory [22:01] _Sym_: And Chromium OS actually makes great use of a TPM out of the box. [22:01] Trying to replace power supply on desktop. How do I unplug the wires that go into the power button? [22:01] Jordanshackelfor: That's a question for ##hardware. [22:01] ##hardware for that Jordanshackelfor [22:02] Kthanksbai [22:02] So I have a PC which has no operating systems currently installed. I'd like to dual-boot with windows 7 and ubuntu, which one is best to install first? [22:02] <_Sym_> It can be used for disk encryption or hacked to store drm keys [22:02] Nicmavr: Windows. === greyback|afk is now known as greyback [22:02] Jordan_U, thanks [22:02] <_Sym_> thanks again, Jordan_U [22:02] Nicmavr: You're welcome. [22:03] _Sym_: You're welcome. === Prelude2004c_Zzz is now known as Prelude2004c [22:04] hihi: Ya want that as ' dpkg -l | grep linux-generic ' . [22:04] hihi, is this a MINT issue [22:04] Well I am using mint [22:04] !mint | hihi [22:04] hihi: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [22:05] But whos issue is that, I have no idea, and Bashing-om: output is empty [22:05] Tho nobody replying there [22:05] Jordan_U, also do you know if there's any programs for ubuntu that regulate battery consumption for a laptop? [22:05] then wait hihi [22:05] :P [22:05] not our problem, hihi [22:06] Nicmavr: What do you mean by regulate? [22:06] I've tried to upgrade 3 times and nothing happens....has anyone had this problem when they tried to upgrade? [22:07] Jordan_U, like in windows where the OS sort of regulates what hardware/programs run in the background for optimal battery life. Ubuntu doesn't have that right? [22:07] mich: upgrade? as in sudo apt upgrade? [22:07] it seems ubuntu fails to upgrade every time... is that why people are leaving this distro? [22:07] nicomachus, no, I am following the instructions on ubuntu's very own pages [22:07] mich: what instructions are those? [22:07] mich: from what are you trying to upgrade and to what? [22:07] hihi: get the system updated and the required linux-generic installed if ya going to build packages on that system . [22:08] can someone who knows what they are talking about talk to me, please? [22:08] mich: can you answer questions, please? [22:08] 15.10 to 16,10 but the software states the newest OS is 16.04 [22:08] mich: you can't update from 15.10 to 16.10 [22:08] https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/upgrade [22:08] mich: 15.10 is eol, you must first update to 16.04 [22:09] !EOL | mich [22:09] mich: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [22:09] nacc, yes, I figured that [22:09] mich: secondly, you probably need to toggle the lts flag in the release upgrader [22:09] mich: check that second link. [22:09] mich: once you've updated to 16.04, to update to 16.10 [22:09] mich what is happening, is perfectly normal [22:09] but, how do I initiate the upgrade? I choose 'upgrade' and it makes me enter my password...then nothing happens [22:09] hihi: As above, if this is mint .. seek help in mint's support channels . [22:09] or nothing I can see [22:10] mich: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [22:10] if that's normal, that is pretty awful [22:10] True [22:10] just follow the instructions. [22:10] mich: you shouldn't have let your distribution go out of service. that's user error, not Ubuntu's fault. [22:10] mich: you chose to put yourself in an unsupported position [22:10] I've done this before... I don't ever remember having a problem [22:10] mich: please first follow the help to get to a supported release [22:10] mich you should have upgraded, before it was eol [22:11] mich: then you can modify your local configuration to allow for non-lts updates, if you want [22:13] so no one is going to tell me how to upgrade to 16.04? okay [22:13] Nicmavr: Ubuntu doesn't have any way for an app to register itself as a "background task" for the purposes of battery regulation. There are tools to help you get better battery life though, like powertop. Obviously, where it is possible to save battery without negatively impacting user experience those strategies are used by default. [22:13] mich: you've already been given the link [22:13] mich: we've told you several times. [22:13] mich: I literally linked a step by step instruction page to you twice. [22:14] monoum i fixed it now with help from a friend. I had to remove openssh-server and reinstall it again and that fixed it. [22:14] so complain all you want, but you can go troll somewhere else. [22:14] something something leading a horse to water... [22:15] tgm4883 you can lead a horse to the water, but it has to drink by herself (or similar) [22:15] MonkeyDust: i think tgm4883 was making a joke :) [22:15] :) [22:16] nacc i know i know ... [22:16] something something knowing is half the battle ;) [22:16] E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. Ubuntu 16.04 [22:16] Jordan_U well it loads the menu now that lets me pick if I want to try ubuntu, install ubuntu, check disk, check memory but then I get the same error after I select any of the options [22:16] apt-get install not working [22:17] xfceone: can you paste the full output of that?

I created the menu entry with the guide that I was given and I can boot to the options where I can select to try / install / check disk/ etc but after I select one I get an error about the iso could not be found and something about /dev/sr0 [22:23] I tried all helps from ubuntu sites [22:23] xfceone: there's no such thing as 'package1' in Ubuntu. Either pastebin the real output, or remove the unsupported software.

[22:24] ok just a moment [22:24] xfceone: and no editing. [22:24] Seveas: ah good point :) [22:26] Jordan_U this is the loopback.cfg like from the guide http://paste.ubuntu.com/23555402 [22:26] <_Sym_> mtrr sanitizer is unable to automatically choose from several options of memory layout on my system [22:26] Hello [22:26] ohai WPX [22:26] I've a problem .. there is a shell file did a remove to all files [22:26] I have a really big binary, anyway to figure out what makes it up? [22:26] <_Sym_> I chose the values that use the lowest amount of ram [22:26] rm -R -f /var/lib/mysql/* [22:27] <_Sym_> but I have no idea which one is the best one to use [22:27] how to restore them please [22:27] WPX: do you ahve backups? [22:27] WPX: restore them from backup [22:27] SADLY NOOO :( [22:27] WPX: then no, there's no recovery [22:27] SURE ? [22:27] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23555403 [22:27] WPX: or find an expensive data recovery company. [22:27] on windows. I can run program to restore files [22:28] aiirborne: That's not from the guide I linked you to. [22:28] xfceone: that's not the full output. [22:28] it is [22:28] WPX: linux is less forgiving. If mysql is still running with all tables open, you may be able to recover some data. [22:28] xfceone: let's say it is, please provide the output of `apt install gcc gcc-5` [22:28] aiirborne: Ahh, I see. You should be looking at the section "How do I use a loopback.cfg", not "How do I create a loopback.cfg". [22:28] Jordan_U maybe I misread/mistyped but thats what the guide said or I'm doing something wrong [22:29] ok [22:29] xfceone: and pastebin the unedited content of /etc/apt/sources.list and all files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d [22:29] sadly, the shell script stoped the services before delete [22:29] WPX: well, you're screwed. [22:29] WPX: out of curiosity, why was that trying to touch the mysql files directly? That seems like bad design [22:30] WPX: Like we said in #mysql recover from backup Dont take candy from strangers and if you do, read the script before running it. [22:30] stupid script .... to install ZPANEL [22:30] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23555415 [22:30] Jordan_U I followed that and the menu entry that looks like that is saved in /etc/grub.d/ but there was no loopback.cfg in /boot/grub/ so I made that too.. I don't think I really understand what I need to do [22:30] Seveas: well not screwed, couldn't he try to recover the files with something like testdisk? [22:31] xfceone: looks like dependency hell. I second Seveas. Need to see sources.list and sources.list.d [22:31] I mean, it's a last ditch effort at this point [22:31] ok [22:31] WPX: power the system down. Boot from a live cd. Make a bit-by-bit copy of the drive with dd. Run photorec or other recovery software on that image. Pray. [22:31] I'm really just trying to reinstall so I can do my school work... my car broke down on the way back home from thanks giving and so I'm stuck here fro the next few days til it gets fixed [22:32] and of course you make the copy onto another medium. You must avoid any writes to that drive. [22:32] Seveas: it is a cloud droplet on digital ocean [22:32] WPX: oh. Then we're back to 'you're screwed' [22:32] xfceone: did you make sure to run `apt update` before running these commands? the version of cpp-5 it's referring to is the release version, not the -security or -updates version(s) [22:33] aiirborne: Have you read the section titled "How do you use a loopback.cfg to boot an iso? [22:33] ? === ubuntu is now known as Guest32275 [22:33] aiirborne: That is the only section you should be looking at. [22:34] apt-get update but nothing [22:34] Jordan_U yes I have read it is it saying that the menu entry should be in /boot/grub instead of /etc/grub.d [22:35] is that what I'm doing wrong? [22:35] xfceone: more /etc/apt/source.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | nc termbin.com 9999 [22:35] aiirborne: Which is true. It should be in /boot/grub/custom.cfg . [22:35] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23555432 [22:36] xfceone: that's far from the entire content, and missing all files in sources.list.d === rapscalian is now known as RupturedI0 [22:36] <_Sym_> Should mtrr_spare_reg_nr be equal to the number of disabled registers? [22:36] use the command I just gave to pastebin it all. [22:37] nc is removed [22:37] then install it. [22:38] nothing in list.d [22:38] I can`t [22:40] if you want us to support you, you're going to have to provide the information we need to do so. Otherwise this is a pointless exercise in frustration. === IznogooD is now known as izzno [22:40] Seveas thanks [22:40] try something [22:40] I can`t install nothing with apt-get [22:41] . [22:41] ı'm lin [22:42] It is working now [22:42] _Sym_: Please pastebin the output of "dmesg". [22:42] Jordan_U can you look at my custom.cfg it is in boot/grub http://paste.ubuntu.com/23555452 [22:42] thanks I checked the updates from Software&Updates [22:43] ubuntu.iso is the only thing on sda5 [22:43] aiirborne: Get rid of everything before the "menuentry" lines. The only thing needed is the menuentry. [22:44] aiirborne: "Replace TITLE with the title you want for the menu entry and PATH with the path to the iso file (not including device name) for example: "/boot-isos/foo.iso"." The "not including device name" bit is important, so it should be: iso_path="/ubuntu.iso" [22:45] Jordan_U ok thanks [22:45] aiirborne: You're welcome. [22:46] Jordan_U so it will just find what device it is on? [22:47] aiirborne: Correct. [22:47] Jordan_U wow awesome thanks again going to try it now [22:49] <_Sym_> Jordan_U, ok, ill need to reboot. brb [22:50] <_Sym_> Jordan_U, you want to see dmesg without any changes to the boot command line right? [22:51] _Sym_: Correct. [22:51] <_Sym_> ok.. brb [22:52] How to extract router firmware .bin file? [22:54] xfceone: Normally, you just upload it to your router. [22:54] Jordan_U it worked! thanks! one last question though what is the best way to back up some pictures from terminal? [22:56] bekks but with Ubuntu? [22:57] xfceone: Open a browser, upload the firmware. [22:57] <_Sym_> Jordan_U, well, i feel silly.. the problem has fixed itself when I build 4.8.11. I never tried the latest kernel w/o removing that boot command line. :-) [22:57] xfceone, through the router via the browser [22:57] I need to see the source code for firmware [22:57] <_Sym_> Jordan_U, I probably would not have tried if you did not ask to see the dmesg. lol [22:57] _Sym_: :) [22:58] xfceone: So ask the vendor of your router wether they will provide the sourcecode to you. [22:58] xfceone, then contact the maker [22:58] xfceone: the binary firmware package does not contain sourcecode. [22:58] ok thanks [22:58] <_Sym_> Thats two I owe you now. [22:59] it is compiled? [22:59] <_Sym_> I like a dmesg that has no errors. :-) [22:59] xfceone: guess why it is called "binary" :) [22:59] ok [22:59] thanks [22:59] aiirborne: "Best" as always depends on you and your exact situation. I would probably use something like "rsync --progress --recursive /path/to/source/directory/ /path/to/destination/directory/" which will copy the directory found at the first path to the directory specified by the second path, showing progress of the copy as it goes. [23:00] <_Sym_> 0.000000] Found optimal setting for mtrr clean up :-) [23:00] <_Sym_> super === oVer is now known as Guest17687 [23:02] <_Sym_> Jordan_U, I just have one last question. I see this "total RAM covered: 14512M" in the MTRR output, but I only have 8GB RAM.. how is that number derived? [23:04] _Sym_: Please pastebin your full dmesg and the output of "free -m". === Affro is now known as awayfro [23:06] <_Sym_> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/HBix2gbj [23:07] Does the -np flag in wget not work? [23:08] _Sym_: Looks like that's your total virtual memory. [23:08] <_Sym_> Jordan_U, mem + swap? [23:09] <_Sym_> because I added that up and its not equal [23:10] _Sym_: mem+swap minus areas that can't be used. [23:10] <_Sym_> oh [23:10] <_Sym_> i see [23:10] <_Sym_> :-D [23:10] <_Sym_> thanks [23:11] <_Sym_> You have been a great help to me today [23:11] <_Sym_> I think I solved everything I wanted fixed [23:11] _Sym_: You're welcome :) === mike_ is now known as Guest20283 [23:38] <_Sym_> Jordan_U, I think that when I disabled TPM in the bios, it freed up a register that then allowed mtrr sanitizer to find the correct layout. [23:45] in 16.04 how do i enable a terminal bell? I tried to find somthing online but nothing works. I have no buildt in speakers. [23:45] so how would you hear the bell [23:46] The external speakers work fine === Prelude2004c_Zzz is now known as Prelude2004c [23:46] terminal preferences profile [23:47] kk4ewt, set to bell on [23:49] What is the purpose and what does the terminal bell do? [23:49] kk4ewt, wait it works now. Anyhow thanks for your time. [23:49] younder: In Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 with Gnome Terminal that alone leads to an alert sound being played for me when the terminal recieves a bell. Do other alerts work? [23:50] abaldygle, Actually it deals with a strange bug where a bell character get's displayed when I press tab [23:55] how do I dislodge a stick? [23:56] FManTropyx: ... we might need some context for that question. [23:57] I wsih to safely remove USB memory, but I cannot find a button for 'safely remove hardware' [23:58] FManTropyx: what desktop environment? In unity you can right-click it to get that option [23:58] this is Ubuntu Studio, so it has xfce [23:59] ok, I did it in the file manager [23:59] it was well hidden!
