[00:02] <skaag> how do I edit PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes in ubuntu 16.04 ?
[00:04] <nacc> skaag: sudo vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config ?
[00:04] <nacc> skaag: not usually necessary, though
[00:07] <skaag> nacc: I'm trying to access using an rsa key but it claims it's not in PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes
[00:07] <skaag> debug log: "Skipping ssh-rsa key /root/.ssh/id_rsa - not in PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes"
[00:08] <skaag> never mind, solved it
[00:08] <snadge> 16.04 doesn't seem to remember my workspace switching settings.. every time i log in, the switcher isn't there, and when i re-enable it, it defaults back to 2x2 .. does anyone know how to fix this?
[00:08] <skaag> I just realized that if you specify a key with PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes in /etc/ssh/ssh_config without a + then it will be the only type accepted
[00:08] <snadge> i've tried unity-tweak-tool and ccsm
[00:08] <snadge> none of my other ubuntu systems do this either.. frustrating :P
[00:12] <FManTropyx> help
[00:13] <Bashing-om> !help | FManTropyx
[00:13] <FManTropyx> what happens with apt-get install synaptic and why?
[00:14] <FManTropyx> this old wikihow gives me different instructions, so do I just install qt-sdk?
[00:15] <Bashing-om> !info qt-sdk xenial
[00:15] <FManTropyx> !info synaptic
[00:15] <Tabmow> How would I go about playing wma files on ubuntu? Several forums topics say it should just work with vlc or have outdated references to gstreamer and w32codecs, any ideas?
[00:16] <FManTropyx> thank you!
[00:16] <bazhang> smplayer Tabmow
[00:16] <Bashing-om> FManTropyx: Terminal ( fastest) way ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt install qt-sdk ' .
[00:17] <bazhang> Tabmow, there are other codecs apart from the restricted extras like x264 you might wish to add
[00:17] <FManTropyx> yeah, I'll try that
[00:18] <Tabmow> bazhang, checking now
[00:19] <Tabmow> Still get an error, these are audio files.
[00:19] <Tabmow> I have the restricted extras already installed too... strange.
[00:19] <bazhang> Tabmow, which all codecs did you install already
[00:19] <bazhang> ok
[00:20] <Tabmow> I haven't installed anything besides vlc, smplayer and the restricted extras.
[00:20] <bazhang> I have found some wma even native windows players dont like
[00:21] <Tabmow> let me try it on my windows vm
[00:22] <Tabmow> Weird... of course the first track I was testing didn't play. Second one plays fine.
[00:22] <bazhang> Tabmow, with the windows tool?
[00:22] <Tabmow> both
[00:23] <bazhang> could be corrupt then is my guess
[00:25] <Tabmow> Yeah, half of them are... weird. Ok thanks for the help.
[00:28] <skaag> after adding 386 as a supported architecture in Ubuntu xenial, how do I enable 32bit linking support?
[00:28] <skaag> installing this now: apt-get install gcc-multilib
[00:28] <skaag> hopefully it helps
[00:35] <aiirborne> ioria EriC^^ and Jordan_U I just want to say thanks for your help today I really appreciate it you all are great
[00:35] <FManTropyx> why don't I have a traceroute command?
[00:35] <wedgie> FManTropyx: mtr
[00:36] <genii> FManTropyx: Because default nis tracepath. If you want traceroute, install it instead.
[00:36] <pavlos> traceroute replaced by mtr
[00:36] <wedgie> FManTropyx: you can install traceroute but i think you'll find that mtr is very nice
[00:37] <FManTropyx> who is mtr?
[00:37] <FManTropyx> now I'm stuck at 49%
[00:37] <aiirborne> wow mtr is nice looking. looks like a bit of a learning curve though
[00:38] <pavlos> mtr is the command, eg. mtr google.com
[00:38] <FManTropyx> apt-get appears to have an issue connecting to fi.archive.ubuntu.com
[00:39] <FManTropyx> ok, I wrote down that 'mtr' emulates TracerT on Ubuntu
[00:44] <wedgie> FManTropyx: it's short for "My Trace Route" if that helps you remember it
[00:53] <hanasaki> what packages are available to do your own web based email ui?  from an imapS server
[00:54] <chibi_> I have a slight problem.
[00:54] <FManTropyx> mmhmm
[00:55] <chibi_> I want to use my Nvidia GTX960M graphics card with ubuntu but ubuntu does not recognize it.
[00:55] <chibi_> To boot I have to pass the grub arg nomodeset.
[00:56] <chibi_> And when I install the proprietary drivers upon reboot lightdm refuses to load. (Get stuck at log in screen)
[00:56] <chibi_> I have 16.04
[00:59] <Bashing-om> chibi_: Driver conflict ? Pastebin ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' .
[01:00] <chibi_> I can't right now with out rebooting. BRB (On windows right now.) But i don't think its a conflict but.
[01:01] <Bashing-om> !info nvidia-367 xenial
[01:01] <Bashing-om> !info nvidia-375 xenial
[01:03] <chibill_> Okay I am back on actual ubuntu
[01:04] <chibill_> what did you want me to run?
[01:05] <Bashing-om> chibill_: run ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' . in a pastebin site .
[01:06] <chibill_> http://pastebin.com/W5MTNz1E
[01:07] <chibill_> Its odd that nvidia 304 is there when I am set to use the default x Org driver.
[01:08] <Bashing-om> chibill_: do : ' sudo apt purge nvidia* ; sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' ; reboot. Ya want a much later driver .
[01:09] <chibill_> Do i have to do anything with the nomodeset i need to boot? (So i don't get the CPU #13 has stalled error stuff)
[01:09] <FManTropyx> why has apt-get stopped working?
[01:11] <Bashing-om> chibill_: Once installed (367 I expect the install wizard to choose) Then remove the boot parameter and reboot .
[01:12] <chibill_> I don't think it will boot with out the parameter. But okay
[01:12] <Bashing-om> chibill_: After the 367 driver is installed .
[01:12] <FManTropyx> neither of the commands fixed my package problem, btw, they just redisplay all the errors, so I guess I should uninstall those pkgs?
[01:13] <chibill_> I will be back if it does not work
[01:13] <Bashing-om> chibill_: That is why we are here . help is what we do :)
[01:14] <Jordan_U> FManTropyx: Please pastebin the output from apt-get that you are seeing.
[01:14] <FManTropyx> ok, I tried to remove one faulty package and apt-get wants to remove 167 packages
[01:15] <wedgie> FManTropyx: those packages probably all depend on what you are trying to remove. What did you try to remove?
[01:15] <FManTropyx> that output is already here: http://z80.guru/asdf/fail.txt
[01:16] <FManTropyx> the first library there
[01:17] <wedgie> oh boy... what led up to that mess?
[01:17] <FManTropyx> installing Ubuntu
[01:17] <FManTropyx> it's fresh install!
[01:18] <wedgie> that output was produced during the output?
[01:18] <wedgie> err, that output was produced during the install?
[01:18] <FManTropyx> no
[01:19] <FManTropyx> very soon after it
[01:19] <FManTropyx> well, the first library, then the others joined in
[01:19] <FManTropyx> now I cannot apt-get update
[01:19] <FManTropyx> it just hangs
[01:20] <wedgie> spontaniously appeared in the terminal? You have to give us more information or we can't help you. What commands were run that led up to the problem?
[01:20] <FManTropyx> that one dude on reddit was probably right about Linux sucking
[01:20] <FManTropyx> yes, the error about the boost library spontaneously appeared at a later use of apt-get
[01:20] <FManTropyx> which had nothing to do with boost
[01:20] <FManTropyx> something somehow broke it
[01:20] <wedgie> and what use of apt-get was that?
[01:21]  * wedgie pulls teeth
[01:21] <FManTropyx> there is no way I could remember that
[01:22] <PickledEggs> could you post /var/log/apt/history.log somewhere?
[01:23] <FManTropyx> this seems to have started happening before the start of the history log
[01:24] <FManTropyx> it reveals nothing
[01:24] <FManTropyx> ah, there are older archived ones
[01:25] <FManTropyx> I'll dig into them at some point
[01:25] <FManTropyx> then I can show if anything relevant
[01:28] <PickledEggs> also if it's a fresh install, it seems like something went terribly wrong - is there a compelling reason not to just nuke it and start over?
[01:29] <FManTropyx> yeah
[01:35] <Jordan_U> FManTropyx: Please pastebin the output of "sudo apt update".
[01:38] <aiirborne> Hey Jordan_U you here?
[01:38] <Jordan_U> FManTropyx: Please also pastebin the output of "sudo apt install --reinstall libboost-filesystem1.58.0".
[01:39] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: Yes.
[01:41] <aiirborne> Jordan_U thanks for the help earlier. I think I have made a final mistake on this journey. When I reinstalled 14.04 I formatted my current broken installation. Well the 14.04 installation failed and I am now in grub rescue. Is there any hope of fixing this
[01:44] <aiirborne> I check all my partitions but none of them have grub
[01:45] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: Please boot from a LiveUSB, run boot info script: https://github.com/arvidjaar/bootinfoscript and pastebin the RESULTS.txt that it produces.
[01:47] <CopherNeue> is there a way for a bashfile to run using upstart when I connect a device?
[01:47] <CopherNeue> or do I use something other than upstart?
[01:48] <guzzlefry> How can I modify the ssh keyring stuff to prompt me for each usage of the key?
[01:48] <guzzlefry> Using Xubuntu 16.04 is that has any bearing on it.
[01:48] <guzzlefry> s/is/if
[01:48] <bb0> sup
[01:49] <Jordan_U> CopherNeue: Use a udev hook.
[01:51] <archi> someone offer free bnc?
[01:52] <PickledEggs> Bayonet Neill-Concelman?
[01:52] <nicomachus> archi: you could try FreeBNC
[01:53] <nicomachus> or znc
[01:58] <Squarism> What is a good drawing program for linux/ubuntu - (not gimp - as its a image manipulation program - not drawing)
[01:58] <claude_> you could try krita
[01:58] <pavlos> mypaint
[01:59] <OerHeks> tons of apps .. https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/department/painting/
[01:59] <OerHeks> pinta +1
[01:59] <nicomachus> Squarism: inkscape
[02:00] <OerHeks> for vector graphs, inkscape indeed!
[02:00] <nicomachus> inkscape is probably the closest OSS alternative to Adobe Illustrator
[02:00] <Squarism> haha tons of opinions
[02:00] <OerHeks> for photo i would say darktable
[02:00] <nicomachus> well, different variations and features. Inkscape is your full-featured vector graphic illustrator. mypaint is similar to MS Paint. I've never used krita.
[02:00] <nicomachus> or darktable.
[02:03] <pavlos> mypaint integrates well with the wacom pen tablet
[02:07] <linux_> kkk
[02:07] <linux_> nesesito aprender de linux
[02:07] <cfhowlett> !es
[02:08] <cfhowlett> or is that French?
[02:08] <cfhowlett> !fr
[02:08] <nicomachus> I think it was poorly spelled spanish.
[02:08] <nicomachus> french doesn't use 'de'
[02:08] <cfhowlett> :)
[02:08] <linux_> gracias
[02:08] <cfhowlett> de nada
[02:11] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: Did you see my last message to you?
[02:14] <aiirborne> Jordan_U yes can't really do that right now. My car broke down on my way back from visiting family and I stuck in a small town. That why I was trying to go through all the trouble to do a fresh install that way. I appreciate the help though
[02:16] <aiirborne> I plan on going to walmart tomorrow to get a USB but even then I'm not sure I will be able to get to a computer to make it into a Bootable drive
[02:16] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: Ok, there are other options that might be able to salvage this machine.
[02:17] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: Do you have more than one hard drive?
[02:17] <aiirborne> Jordan_U no I don't
[02:18] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: Is there an error message shown before you get the grub rescue shell?
[02:20] <aiirborne> Jordan_U "error no such partition entering rescue mode"
[02:21] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: What is the output of "ls"?
[02:22] <aiirborne> Jordan_U hd0 hd0,5 hd0,3
[02:23] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: OK. "ls (hd0,3)/". Does it seem to list the directories in your root filesystem?
[02:24] <aiirborne> No "./ ../ lost+found/"
[02:25] <aiirborne> But that is where it was
[02:25] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: Is (hd0,5) swap?
[02:26] <aiirborne> hd0,5 has the ubuntu iso I was going to install from
[02:26] <cfhowlett> that can't be right, aiirborne
[02:27] <aiirborne> It was swap though before I turned swap off and downloaded the iso there to do a clean install
[02:27] <cfhowlett> aiirborne, ah, no HDD.  right.
[02:28] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: OK, does it only contain the one file then?
[02:28] <aiirborne> Yes ubuntu.iso well and lost+found
[02:29] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: Were there any error messages during installation?
[02:29] <aiirborne> No it just froze
[02:29] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: At what point did it freeze?
[02:30] <aiirborne> Once I got passed the select what partition to install to
[02:31] <aiirborne> I think it froze at detecting filesystem
[02:31] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: And you have no other drives or computers around?
[02:32] <cfhowlett> aiirborne, installing to a partition while booted from that same partition won't work
[02:32] <aiirborne> no :/ I may be able to use the hotel computer tomorrow I think they have one for guests
[02:34] <aiirborne> Cfhowlett it was 2 different partitions but on the same drive
[02:35] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: In the future, pass "toram" as a kernel parameter to load the whole live environment into RAM so that it no longer needs to be read from disk while installing.
[02:35] <aiirborne> Well the iso I booted from was on sda5 and I was planing on installing to sda1 which became sda3 after it formatted
[02:36] <aiirborne> Jordan_U ahh I don't know how to pass a kernel parameter but that sounds pretty cool
[02:37] <aiirborne> Well today has been a pretty good learning experience for me.
[02:37] <dn> I want to send email for terminal, so what should I do ?
[02:38] <k00l3th4n> dn: Use sendmail
[02:39] <aiirborne> So there is no way to boot an iso from grub rescue right?
[02:40] <Jordan_U> aiirborne: You are indeed out of luck until you have another drive.
[02:40] <dn> k00l3th4n  thanks;
[02:41] <aiirborne> Jordan_U ok well I appreciate the help
[02:43] <OerHeks> coret streetwitch
[02:47] <k00l3th4n> dn: welcome
[02:47] <neon_squirrel> Hey, guys. Weird question. On the XPS 13 Developer edition, Dell has, by default, due to some contractual BS, disabled the super key by default. If I wanted to re-enable the super key after remocing dell-super-key, how would I do it in dconf via CLI?
[03:00] <arsalan> Hello there
[03:00] <arsalan> i have a problem
[03:00] <cfhowlett> !ask | arsalan ,
[03:00] <Caballero> good day, i am trying to recover a windows laptop for a friend using a boot usb ubuntu install, and i am having a hard time finding the path to the windows hard drive data.. when i try to mount any of the patition shower in /dev ls it answers cant find /dev/sda3 in /etc/fstab
[03:01] <wedgie> Caballero: what command are you using to mount it?
[03:01] <arsalan> my Ubuntu 16.04 have a problem with boot time and it's so slower in boot process
[03:01] <Caballero> sudo mount /dev/sda3
[03:01] <wedgie> you need a mountpoint
[03:02] <wedgie> mkdir /mnt/windows; mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/windows
[03:02] <Caballero> that sound pretty logical now that you say so thx
[03:03] <arsalan> how can i make Ubuntu boot time faster
[03:04] <arsalan> is anybody there ?
[03:04] <Bashing-om> Caballero: system commands require sudo as a prefix ;  sudo mkdir ............. .
[03:04] <cfhowlett> !patience | arsalan
[03:04] <Caballero> also  wedgie  do you know a better technique to tell wich is the windows partition then trying them and checking ?
[03:04] <Caballero> Bashing-om,  yeash i figured so thx
[03:04] <wedgie> Caballero: lol, that's what i always do.
[03:05] <wedgie> Caballero: if you find a slick solution to that let me know
[03:05] <fraroco> exi
[03:05] <fraroco> exit
[03:05] <Bashing-om> Caballero: ' sudo parted -l ' might tell .
[03:05] <fraroco> sorry!
[03:05] <fraroco> jeje
[03:05] <Caballero> ima try that!
[03:06] <Caballero> it does!
[03:06] <Caballero> well it tell me the size of partitions.. and with deduction i can go long ways
[03:07] <Bashing-om> Caballero: :) :)
[03:09] <Caballero> failed to mount /dev/sda3    input/output error, ntfs is either inconsistent or there is hardware fault, or its a softraid/fakeraid hardware... tell me to reboot on windows twice and do a checkdisc... (wich is not possible)
[03:10] <Caballero> not fun
[03:10] <Datz> Hi, I'm having networking trouble with my install. When I tried to update the machine with aptitude update, all of the archive failed to resolve. I also can't ping a site like google.com without it failing, but I tried to ssh in from the outside, and it worked fine.
[03:11] <Datz> ping: unknown host google.com ^
[03:11] <ahn0st> hey
[03:12] <neon_squirrel> Heyo!
[03:12] <Datz> I can however ping google.com's IP address and get a response, so it looks like there are DNS issues.
[03:12] <CallmeChewy> I'm working on using the "mail" command - anyone with experience using it?
[03:12] <Bashing-om> Caballero: Maybe tell the system mounting a windows partition .. like so ' sudo mkdir /mnt/windows ; sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ' where sda1 is the Windows' operating system partition .
[03:13] <ahn0st> my web browser is saying html5 not supported
[03:13] <ahn0st> im using firefox
[03:13] <Caballero> Bashing-om,  will try thx a lot
[03:13] <Jordan_U> ahn0st: When do you see this error?
[03:14] <ahn0st> whenever i want to watch youtube live
[03:14] <Bashing-om> Caballero: Not saying that the Windows' file system is not marked as dirty .. maybe if so .. buntu might can fix .. might !
[03:15] <Caballero> same: corruptedfile $upcase , failed tommount input/output error ntfs inconsistent or hardware fauult. ..
[03:15] <Datz> looks like I'm missing /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf
[03:15] <ahn0st> brb
[03:16] <Bashing-om> Caballero: Which is the operating system partition for Windows ?
[03:16] <Caballero> sda3 i figured for being the only one that is big..
[03:18] <Caballero> i just could boot another smaler partition
[03:18] <Jordan_U> Caballero: Are you trying to back up data, or actually write to the windows partition?
[03:18] <Bashing-om> Caballero: K .. then try and reset the bit ... ' sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda3 ' .May have to d/l the tool ' sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g ' . I do not recall if it is installed by default .
[03:18] <Caballero> i will see if there is any interesting contect there..
[03:19] <a|ien> is there an easy way to get ubuntu to stop changing the name of my network interface?
[03:19] <Caballero> no internet on that laptop atm, // i just want to retreive that before reinstallation
[03:21] <OerHeks> use the live iso, preferred way to fix partition issues
[03:21] <Caballero> im on live iso on usb..
[03:23] <Caballero> yeah so the partition i could actualy mount is only the factory instal data and such..  downst contain the user files im trying to retreive.. i will try ntsffix real quick
[03:24] <Datz> Hi, at some point I've altered /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/original I'm not sure how to bring it back to its original state, how can I tell, or troubleshoot this?
[03:24] <Jordan_U> a|ien: Why do you not want to use the deterministic naming scheme?
[03:25] <Datz> I had an entry for nameserver which I've changed from my old gateway, to my current one.
[03:25] <a|ien> because its changing on its own between reboots
[03:25] <a|ien> and im having to manually edit the interfaces file to have networking again
[03:25] <a|ien> i have almost 400 machines to setup and i dont have time to chase screwed up interface names
[03:25] <Caballero> Bashing-om,  you rock my universe.. i owe you a case of beer
[03:26] <Jordan_U> a|ien: You get a different name from one boot to the next? What version of Ubuntu?
[03:26] <a|ien> correct, it is sporadic but happens to like 60% of the machines ive setup so far
[03:26] <a|ien> 15.10 server
[03:27] <Bashing-om> Caballero: Well .. Now .. I tell ya .. others told me . I just passed it on to you .
[03:27] <a|ien> i boot it up with a single video card and static the IP
[03:27] <a|ien> then shut it down and add the other 4 video cards
[03:27] <a|ien> and when i reboot it the name has changed
[03:27] <cfhowlett> 15.10 is WAY past end of life, unsupported and unsecured.  if you are managing 400 machines, you  missed direct upgrade deadline.  expect breaches.
[03:27] <Jordan_U> a|ien: That's quite odd. Is there only one ethernet device per machine?
[03:27] <a|ien> yes only one interface
[03:28] <a|ien> the customer is running this older version because it requires a specific amd video driver to mine cryptocurrency properly
[03:28] <a|ien> these are just simple crypto miners locked behind a vlan behind a cisco asa, im not worried about breaches
[03:28] <Jordan_U> a|ien: Please file a bug report about the names changing between boots. Until the bug is fixed, you can run "sudo ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link" or pass the kernel parameter net.ifnames=0 as explained here: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/
[03:28] <OerHeks> disable 'predictable interface naming in grub'
[03:29] <a|ien> thanks Jordan, I actually was just reading through that page and found the fix
[03:29] <wedgie> oh man, when did support drop to 9 months?
[03:30] <a|ien> once i do that will it rename itself to eth0 or just stick with the currently assigned name?
[03:30] <cfhowlett> LONG ago.
[03:30]  * wedgie hasn't been paying attention for a few years apparently
[03:35] <tomed> let's say i have ip   1.1.1.25   and let's say my neighbor use same ISP and has ip  1.1.1.27.   if somebody ddos attack me only (ip 1.1.1.25),  my internet would go down, but would my neighbor's internet go down as well?
[03:37] <a|ien> Jordan_U: With the sudo ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link command, should there already be a link file there that I am pointing into the void or is /etc/systemd/network/ empty by default?
[03:38] <wedgie> tomed: hard to say. Would depend a lot on how the ISP had things set up. But possibly. And the fact that the IPs are close together probably isn't all that important. In any case, not a #ubuntu question
[03:38] <tomed> wedige  what if somebody ddos attacks your neighbor's ip  RIGHT NOW; would you go down as well?
[03:38] <cfhowlett> tomed, as #networking
[03:38] <cfhowlett> ask
[03:39] <mkultra> it depends on the scale of the attack. mostlikely yes
[03:39] <mkultra> all that trafffic has to converge at a gateway in whatever node the victim ip is at

[03:58] <jeffreylevesque> but, if i do `sudo apt-get install nginx -y`, i am pretty sure it installs 1.10.2
[03:58] <jeffreylevesque> for ubuntu 14.04
[03:58] <jeffreylevesque> `nginx -v` displays "nginx version: nginx/1.10.2"

[04:06] <oduasv> Hello guys! I have a bit of an issue after replacing my video card (AMD r9 270) to an (AMD rx480). When I first booted up, it said The system is running in low-graphics mode. Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. I am on Ubuntu 16.04
[04:07] <oduasv> I am unable to get to a desktop, however after going through the GUI I can use alt+f1 to enter a console
[04:08] <Bashing-om> p_d: ' dpkg -i <package> . where you are in the PWD as the target or give dpkg the full path to the file .
[04:08] <p_d> Bashing-om hmm thanks
[04:10] <oduasv> I tried googling the issue, but the relevant stuff wasn't relevant. Is there a different IRC I should be in for my question?
[04:12] <hitachi[m]> 😂😂😂
[04:21] <jeffreylevesque> how do i install a newer version of nginx - http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/nginx
[04:21] <jeffreylevesque> i think there is 1.10.x
[04:21] <rocketeer> Quick question: I checked my home folder today to find six folders with very long gibberish titles (e.g. 栯浯⽥数整⽲挮捡敨眯扥楫⽴捩湯慤慴慢敳뫛쇅߈䞡㻰ꄛ﫠) that I certainly did not create. How would I go about figuring out how they got there and why?
[04:21] <jeffreylevesque> and 1.11.x - http://nginx.org/en/download.html
[04:22] <rocketeer> jeffreylevensque: I'm assuming regular apt update && upgrade doesn't update it?
[04:22] <oduasv> rocketeer: Have you cd'ed into them and snooped about?
[04:22] <subho> Amm0n: As you suggested yesterday, I have upgraded to 16.04 from trusty. Now could you just provide the links for downloading the drivers for my wifi adapter
[04:23] <rocketeer> oduasv: Yup, they're empty
[04:23] <jeffreylevesque> i'm using https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-nginx
[04:23] <oduasv> even with sudo ls?
[04:23] <oduasv> I'd remove them if they are completely empty
[04:24] <jeffreylevesque> the module essentially runs `sudo /usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confold --force-yes install nginx=some-version`
[04:24] <jeffreylevesque> where `some-version`, i've fixed to "1.4.6-1ubuntu3.7"
[04:25] <rocketeer> even sudo ls -h -A returns nothing, but this happened about a week ago and I deleted. They're back, and that's a little odd.
[04:26] <oduasv> seems like you need to write a script that monitors processes that create folders :)
[04:27] <rocketeer> odusav: In addition, they were created on different days (four on the 23rd, one on the 24th and 27th), so it's not just one weird thing
[04:28] <oduasv> I guess there isn't anyone that could solve my problem atm.

[05:28] <subho> Hey guys, I am trying to install the wifi adapter drivers. But I am getting errors when I do sudo make.
[05:28] <subho> The chipset is Mediatek RT5370.
[05:29] <ignacio> subho, which errors?
[05:30] <subho> ignacio: http://termbin.com/bl8r
[05:30] <ignacio> then it ends=?
[05:31] <subho> Nah, this is the correct one. http://termbin.com/tv0c
[05:31] <subho> Don't know why that one happened though(ending suddenly)
[05:32] <ignacio> subho, why not just use the ubuntu builtin function to install property drivers?
[05:34] <subho> ignacio: In the Additional drivers it doesn't recognize my wifi adapter
[05:35] <ignacio> http://askubuntu.com/questions/163598/how-do-i-install-wireless-drivers-for-ralink-rt5370-offline :/ no idea
[05:36] <subho> ignacio, all the links in that page are dead. It seems mediatek moves pages pretty rapidly
[05:37] <ignacio> subho, http://cdn-cw.mediatek.com/Downloads/linux/DPO_RT5572_LinuxSTA_2.6.1.3_20121022.tar.bz2
[05:37] <subho> The only drivers I could get were from Mediatek Search feature
[05:37] <ignacio> that one seems to work
[05:37] <subho> That is the one I tried to make
[05:37] <ignacio> I got that link from a comment in one of the answers
[05:37] <ignacio> oh
[05:37] <subho> It's giving me the errors
[05:47] <subho> ignacio: Any help
[05:49] <glitchd> while in terminal, anytime i press the "h" key, it brings up the online documentation screen. its driving me crazy. it just started doing this.
[05:51] <ignacio> glitchd, wut?
[05:52] <subho> The Windows version of the drivers seems to work. Can I install that via Wine or something....??
[05:53] <glitchd> ignacio, i explained my problem perfectly..
[05:56] <ignacio> subho, I don't think so
[05:57] <subho> Well, then how about NDISwrapper.
[05:57] <subho> Never used it
[06:13] <Kartagis> I have an ubuntu box in a vm. when I fire it off, I get attempt to read or write outside of disk hd0 but when I boot it off live iso, I see everything perfectly. how do I fix that or do I need to create anew?
[06:17] <Triffid_Hunter> Kartagis: does the filesystem header have a different size to the partition? does the partition table list a partition that doesn't exist off the end of the disk which your live media doesn't use?
[06:18] <Kartagis> Triffid_Hunter: how do I check those?
[06:19] <Triffid_Hunter> Kartagis: gparted or fdisk or cfdisk for the partition stuff.. filesystem stuff depends on the filesystem, try resize2fs if you're using ext3 or ext4
[06:23] <Kartagis> Triffid_Hunter: does https://www.dropbox.com/s/u4l7ral07e2twe9/VirtualBox_Ubuntu%2016.04_30_11_2016_09_21_56.png?dl=0 help?

[06:25] <Kartagis> EriC^^: chrooted, right?
[06:25] <EriC^^> yup
[06:26] <Triffid_Hunter> Kartagis: how do you have 100.0022 GiB worth of space allocated on a 100.0GiB disk?
[06:26] <Kartagis> idk
[06:26] <Triffid_Hunter> Kartagis: looks to me like your swap may well be hanging off the end
[06:27] <Triffid_Hunter> Kartagis: and why is it extended? I'd suggest blowing away sda2 and sda5 and just putting a normal swap partition that doesn't hang off the end of the disk
[06:28] <EriC^^> sounds good ^
[06:29] <Kartagis> when I right click on them, menu is greyed out
[06:29] <EriC^^> Kartagis: use cfdisk
[06:30] <EriC^^> sudo cfdisk /dev/sda
[06:31] <Triffid_Hunter> Kartagis: perhaps they're in use? do it from your live media
[06:31] <Kartagis> that's the only way I can boot right now
[06:32] <EriC^^> does lsblk show them in use?
[06:32] <Kartagis> aye
[06:33] <EriC^^> the swap?
[06:33] <Kartagis> aye

[06:39] <EriC^^> disk hd0 sounds like grub stuff

[07:24] <Kartagis> older kernel? hm, never tried that. I've only tried current kernel recovery

[07:25] <Kartagis> Mac
[07:26] <Kartagis> sorry, macOS
[07:26] <Kartagis> heh
[07:29] <Kartagis> interesting. this makes me thing the kernel is missing files?
[07:29] <Kartagis> because an older kernel booted
[07:29] <Kartagis> EriC^^: ^^
[07:30] <Kartagis> time to reinstall that kernel maybe?

[07:46] <denza242> Hi for some reason when I run apt update it says I have a read only FS
[07:46] <denza242> I tried saving a simple text file but it said the same thing
[07:47] <denza242> how do I make my fs read/write-able again
[07:48] <Kartagis> EriC^^: re-installing seems to have fixed it
[07:49] <Kartagis> however, when I did apt-get install, I wasn't warned that it already exists
[07:50] <EriC^^> Kartagis: aha, cool
[07:51] <EriC^^> Kartagis: i'd check the disk health from the host os
[07:51] <denza242> here's what dmesg says
[07:52] <Amm0n> Kartagis, maybe you removed it by accident, check dpkg.log?
[07:52] <denza242> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23557054/
[07:53] <wk-work> denza242: try booting into safe mode and running fsck
[07:53] <Kartagis> Amm0n: on, dpkg.log says half-installed for that
[07:54] <denza242> wk-work: do I risk nuking my data if I do
[07:54] <denza242> I mean I'd prefer making a backup first
[07:54] <wk-work> denza242: No, fsck is just used to analyze and possibly repair the filesystem
[07:55] <denza242> fair enough brb
[07:55] <Kartagis> oh, that's from today
[07:55] <ConsoleFx> whenever I am trying to connect to a remove host through ssh (a virtualbox linux image), every time I come across with permission denied even if the password is correct, sshd_config has enabled entries like Listen 0.0.0.0, Port 22
[07:55] <ConsoleFx> I tried to flush iptables via "iptables -F" but still no luck :(
[07:55] <Kartagis> thanks EriC^^
[07:56] <ConsoleFx> I have no idea what could be the reason for this!
[07:56] <wk-work> ConsoleFx: access denied? are you trying to login as root?
[07:56] <ConsoleFx> wk-work, yeah
[07:56] <EriC^^> Kartagis: no problem
[07:56] <wk-work> ConsoleFx: you possibly need to allow root logins with passwords
[07:56] <ConsoleFx> wk-work, whats the config I need to enable agaist the config file then?
[07:57] <ConsoleFx> wk-work, PermitRootLogin yes ??
[07:57] <wk-work> ConsoleFx: sshd_config, make sure PermitRootLogin is set to Yes
[07:57] <ConsoleFx> ah okay
[07:57] <ConsoleFx> oops i think that was commented
[07:57] <ConsoleFx> let me check
[07:58] <ConsoleFx> wk-work, currently its configured as "PermitRootLogin without-password"
[07:58] <andarys> hola
[07:58] <ConsoleFx> shall I comment that line?
[07:58] <andarys> channel ubuntu spanish?
[07:58] <wk-work> ConsoleFx: that basically means you can only login to root via ssh with an ssh key
[07:58] <wk-work> well, or PAM, but you understand
[07:59] <ConsoleFx> wk-work, aah okay... let me comment that line then and have PermitRootLogin as yes
[07:59] <ConsoleFx> that should solve I feel
[07:59] <wk-work> yep that should be it
[07:59] <ConsoleFx> wk-work,  awesome :)
[08:03] <ConsoleFx> wk-work, I can comment UsePAM yes... right?
[08:03] <ConsoleFx> or it would have any consequences?
[08:03] <ConsoleFx> all I want is to let me login to root through another box
[08:06] <ConsoleFx> wk-work, buddy it worked :)
[08:06] <ConsoleFx> thanks for the help!

[08:17] <mMati123> Hi all, I have a problem with OpenSSL build process, I want to install OpenSSL with fips certification in Ubuntu 14.04 (OpenSSL 1.0.2j). According to OpenSSL fips doc I do the folowing steps to build and install it : https://bpaste.net/show/ffafda8116c4. After this Ubuntu doesn't see new installed OpenSSL and my application is not properly linked t
[08:17] <mMati123> o dynamic libraries of OpenSSL, how can I properly build and install it from sources on Ubuntu??
[08:20] <fickyou> do you set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the corrent position of your compiler result?
[08:21] <blackflow> mMati123: it's not as simple as installing just one library. If your new OpenSSL lib is supposed to replace the existing, you pretty much have to rebuild ALL the installed packages that use openssl as a library.
[08:22] <mMati123> blackflow: for my needs I need to rebuild only my app, which actually cannot be rebuild because of linker error
[08:22] <mMati123> fickyou: I don't do it actually
[08:23] <blackflow> mMati123: in that case you make sure that the new fips enabled lib does not install itself in the paths of default system openssl lib

[09:37] <Amm0n> ok, then pleas /join #freenode for more support
[09:37] <pchoo> Amm0n: with the older kernel testing the crash dump process (as suggested in the link you previously provided) has caused the system to hang.  However as a new thing,  scroll lock and caps lock are blinking
[09:37] <msevwork> is there a terminal text editor similiar to nano which can do column editing?
[09:37] <samba> shall i join freednode Amm0n?
[09:38] <pchoo> I'm getting no other response,  and it's been 8 minutes now
[09:38] <yocs0000> msevwork: what do you mean? The text file would not be structured in columns.
[09:38] <Amm0n> pchoo, then reboot the normal kernel and see if it created a dump
[09:38] <kilyiphone[m]> Hello 😂
[09:38] <msevwork> yocs0000, emacs can do that
[09:39] <msevwork> but too had to learn
[09:39] <msevwork> like vertical select text and delet
[09:39] <msevwork> e
[09:39] <msevwork> not horizontal line by line but vertical
[09:40] <yocs0000> msevwork: you mean working on two files in parallel?
[09:40] <pchoo> Amm0n: no dump. will try your other suggestion
[09:47] <anzipex> Hey, does anyone use xchat for ubuntu?
[09:48] <Amm0n> anzipex, xchat is dead, use the fork hexchat
[09:48] <pchoo> Amm0n: It hung just the same, hasn't left anything in /var/crash
[09:49] <cfhowlett> anzipex, xchat has been dead for YEARS.  use hexchat
[09:49] <Amm0n> pchoo, you mean the halt thing?
[09:49] <pchoo> yes
[09:49] <Amm0n> did you disable quit,splash too?
[09:49] <anzipex> Hm... Well I'll try it, thanks
[09:50] <pchoo> i removed 'splash quiet' from /etc/default/grub and ran sudo update-grub2
[09:50] <Amm0n> pchoo, and halt is giving some output?
[09:50] <pchoo> would I have had to reboot before running halt?
[09:51] <Amm0n> yes
[09:51] <pchoo> ok, let me try again now
[09:51] <sambaSec> thank u athison and Amon and all guys here i have been registred and got my new nickname verified
[09:51] <Amm0n> you could just use SHIFT at boot then "e" to edit the same line as in /etc/default/grub
[09:52] <Amm0n> pchoo, except this isn't persitent then
[09:52] <Amm0n> pchoo, for testing stuff like we do
[09:53] <pchoo> Amm0n: yeah,  I read that,  I was just going to re add it after
[09:53] <pchoo> It's got some more output than before
[09:53] <pchoo> Lots of misaligned ok statements
[09:54] <pchoo> One failed: Failed to start Network Manager Wait Online.
[09:54] <Amm0n> pchoo, oh
[09:55] <Amm0n> reboot and check sudo systemctl status NetworkManager-Wait-Online.service or something
[09:55] <pchoo> The next line is 'See system to status NetworkManager-Wait...  Yeah,  that
[09:57] <Amm0n> pchoo, to see if that's your problem, you could disable this service
[09:58] <pchoo> Amm0n: Here's the output https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/VeHCgnia/
[10:02] <pchoo> Amm0n: My colleague just checked, his failed also, buit he doesn't have these shutdown issues.
[10:05] <Amm0n> pchoo, nvm then disable this service wouldn't be enough though , i've just read.. and you would notice problems with it at boot and not at shutdown
[10:06] <Amm0n> pchoo, so back to the crashdump maybe..
[10:06] <Amm0n> pchoo, does this machine have more than 2GB RAM?
[10:10] <timetocode> I'm trying to start a node script using systemd. Here is the service: https://bpaste.net/show/e633d7b28d02 . Line 8 is where I run the script. I can run that line on my own directly from the prompt, but when run by systemd I get status=127/n/a which I think means that the command is not found. How can I debug this further?
[10:11] <pchoo> Amm0n: 16gb
[10:21] <foito> hello i have problem with my network. When i plug-in my wifi adapter i got alot of disconnect because signal disappears and i got a problem report. can someone help me please?
[10:22] <shivra> foito does it happen even whe you are close to router?
[10:24] <Amm0n> pchoo, other guys mentioned USB3 as possible problem: http://askubuntu.com/questions/508029/ubuntu-14-04-stuck-on-shutdown
[10:26] <pchoo> My suspicion is actually gfx now,  I just dried to find out if it was using nvidia or Intel,  and lshw -c video crashed in the same way
[10:27] <Amm0n> pchoo, then check dmesg or kern.log syslog
[10:29] <Amm0n> pchoo, i have to go now, pls ask someone else here or ask for me again later
[10:29] <feroulis> can i see if someone respond to my question?
[10:31] <pchoo> Amm0n thanks for all your help!
[10:32] <younder> Never mind echo $XTERM, locate  xtern-256-color give /lib/terminfo/x/xtern-256color as compiled terminfo entry
[10:38] <Amm0n> pchoo, no problem
[10:38] <Amm0n> pchoo, one more thing: boot a live iso and see if you have the same problem
[10:38] <Mercury_> i am unable to write data to a USB serial using echo "ATI" > /dev/ttyUSB2 but using minicom it's working. Any idea ?
[10:39] <Amm0n> pchoo, and diff the BIOS settings with your friends laptop maybe
[10:39] <Razer_Chroma> veryone
[10:39] <Razer_Chroma> Can anyone put me in the right direction?

[10:44] <deronnax> I would like to unit-test a big python-sqlalchemy app. Currently it's pretty slow, has anyone succeeded in moving mariadb data file in /tmp ?
[10:44] <nikolam> Hiz_, what should I use instead of /etc/gdm/Init/Default  on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS , so I have VNC server start ok with Ubuntu? (it is now using lightdm)
[10:46] <nikolam> I was thinking to say Hi
[10:47] <nikolam> there is lightdm now and I suppose /etc/gdm/Init/Default is not right path
[10:47] <nikolam> as per: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers#x11vnc
[10:48] <abcen8> newbie
[10:48] <abcen8> hy nikolam
[10:48] <abcen8> l9
[10:48] <nikolam> is  /etc/gdm/Init/  now /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/ ?
[10:49] <loodoons> I think Ubuntu is the Microsoft's bitch ^^ Who's agree with me ?
[10:50] <nikolam> loodoons, this is support channel, you ar free to discuss offtopic things on #ubuntu-offtopic or similar
[10:51] <tomreyn> loodoons: this isn't the right channel to discuss this. this channel is only for support. maybe #ubuntu-offtopic would work for it.
[10:52] <tomreyn> (in fact this is not the right channel to discuss anything, it's really just for providing or receiving support.)
[10:53] <tomreyn> nikolam: /etc/gdm/Init/ refers to gdm, /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/ refers tro lightdm. those are two software options for a graphical login daemon.
[10:53] <foito> hello i have problem with my network. When i plug-in my wifi adapter i got alot of disconnect because signal disapiars also i got report a problem pop-up window
[10:53] <nikolam> tomreyn, as I see with Ubuntu, lightdm is now default with fresh install of 16.04LTS
[10:54] <nikolam> tomreyn, Should I suppose I put same file inside /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/ ?
[10:56] <tomreyn> nikolam: it's a different software, so the same configuration file is unlikely to work.
[10:56] <nikolam> I would need to access console via VNC on Ubuntu at boot
[10:57] <nikolam> I have some VM inside to access graphically
[10:57] <Kali_Yuga> I recently get this when playing videos http://www0.xup.in/exec/ximg.php?fid=52180756. forum says add a ppa but i won't ad a ppa for no reason
[10:57] <tomreyn>  /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf lists available configuration options for lightdm. or you could switch back to gdm.
[10:58] <Kali_Yuga> I recently get this when playing videos http://www0.xup.in/exec/ximg.php?fid=52180756. forum says add a ppa but i won't ad a ppa for no reason
[10:59] <tomreyn> !repeat | Kali_Yuga
[10:59] <nikolam>  I don't see /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf fiel ther by default
[11:00] <Kali_Yuga> tomreyn: I couldn't see my own message when i sent it. relax
[11:01] <shivra_> foito: could you run lspci -vvnn | grep -i net and tell me what comes after Network Controller?
[11:01] <avellanedas> hi everyone
[11:02] <pchoo> Amm0n: FYI: I did sudo apt-get purge nvidia-* and that has stopped the crashes
[11:03] <nikolam> and what x11vnc options to put there, obviously x11vnc <options> is not the right line
[11:03] <avellanedas> how are you?
[11:03] <Kali_Yuga> i already looked online that's why i'm asking here, they say adding ppa but i won't add one. there is no good reason for doing this
[11:03] <avellanedas> bye everyone
[11:04] <tomreyn> nikolam: on ubuntu 16.04, /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf is part of the lightdm-gtk-greeter package
[11:04] <DX099> hi all
[11:04] <DX099> does anyone have any experience with Ubuntu preseed configuration files?
[11:04] <tomreyn> Kali_Yuga: which software discplayed the message you uploaded?
[11:05] <Kali_Yuga> tomreyn: Firefox
[11:05] <OerHeks> Kali_Yuga, 'libavcodec may be vulnerable ... or not supported... " then don't add ppa if you don't want to.
[11:05] <Kali_Yuga> tomreyn: everything is up to date, using Firefox 50
[11:05] <OerHeks> !info libavcodec
[11:06] <akik> Kali_Yuga: is this on ubuntu 14.04 ?
[11:06] <Kali_Yuga> akik: yes
[11:07] <akik> Kali_Yuga: i had the same message but i don't know the fix
[11:07] <DX099> !info libavcodec-ffmpeg
[11:07] <DX099> !info libavcodec-ffmpeg56
[11:07] <OerHeks> http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libavcodec-extra
[11:07] <OerHeks> !info libavcodec-extra
[11:07] <OerHeks> !info libavcodec-extra trusty
[11:08] <tomreyn> there is also libavcodec54
[11:08] <nikolam> lightdm-greeter is virtual package and not installed by default.  I am worried I would change login experience instaling it or do something bad to login by installing it?
[11:08] <nikolam> Anyway, going to the site itself, So I will se for myself.
[11:10] <Kali_Yuga> basically this issue http://askubuntu.com/questions/853533/how-to-update-libavcodec-on-ubuntu-14-04-vulnerability-associated
[11:11] <Kali_Yuga> was asked
[11:11] <Kali_Yuga> 4 days ago so i don't think i'm the only one
[11:11] <OerHeks> see last comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1643467
[11:12] <Milad213123012> anyone knows why irssi won't connect to IRC?
[11:12] <OerHeks> so wait for FF to fix this
[11:12] <Kali_Yuga> OerHeks: Oh ok thx very much. now i know it's just a bug
[11:12] <OerHeks> Kali_Yuga,  or please confirm that bugreport, it helps
[11:13] <tomreyn> Kali_Yuga: software developers sometimes make the software check whether a software they developed was released more than a giuven time period ago. sometimes they also check whether a new software version exists or whether the release version they think you are running is no longer supported. however, those checks do usually not account for patched packages provided by ubuntu (and other linux distributions) which build on the same release but
[11:13] <tomreyn> have additional security patches applied.
[11:13] <akik> OerHeks: the bug report is saying that libavcodec should be updated, not firefox (?)
[11:13] <Kali_Yuga> OerHeks: I will confirm. didn't see the last line there :)
[11:15] <Kali_Yuga> doesn't have a huge effect. videos everything still works. just this message popping up all the time
[11:16] <OerHeks> akik how to tell 54.35.1  in http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/trusty/libav ?
[11:18] <Kali_Yuga> k clicked Yes, it affects me
[11:20] <Kingsy> How can I install 2.7.3-0ubuntu2 on 16.04 ?
[11:22] <shivra_> Kingsy: did you tried apt-get?
[11:22] <OerHeks> Kingsy, what package name?
[11:23] <Kingsy> shivra_: that would be ideal
[11:23] <Kingsy> OerHeks: thats the problem I don't know the package name
[11:24] <Kingsy> I have tried apt-get install python=2.7.3-0ubuntu2.2 which is the version I want
[11:24] <Kingsy> but it cant find that package.
[11:25] <Kingsy> haha I just realised I didnt even mention it was pyrthon I was attempting to downgrade heh
[11:25] <shivra_> launchpadlibrarian.net/142761203/python_2.7.3-0ubuntu2.2_i386.deb
[11:25] <shivra_> this should work
[11:25] <tomreyn> and would be unsupported
[11:27] <tomreyn> Kingsy: you should not just install any specific python version. on 16.04, the 2.x python branch is version 2.7.11-1. what makes you want to use a different python version?
[11:28] <OerHeks> 2.7.3 would be the old precise package..
[11:28] <OerHeks> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python2.7
[11:28] <Kingsy> tomreyn: I need to make a virtualenv to run a web app that needs 2.7.3
[11:29] <tomreyn> Kingsy: have you tried it with 2.7.11? if it did not work with that version then tell the webapp developers ybout it and have them fix it.
[11:29] <Kingsy> tomreyn: yes it does not work
[11:30] <Kingsy> tomreyn: that is not a realistic solution.. although that would be best case :) heh
[11:30] <tomreyn> Kingsy: but downgrading python to an unsupported and insecure version to run a web application with is a realistic solution?
[11:31] <Kingsy> tomreyn: probably not no .. heh its a shame you cant have a different version in the env
[11:31] <haxabja> Hi, is it possible to set Alt + Shift as the change keyboard layout shortcut?
[11:31] <haxabja> I use a lot of keyboard layouts and switching with the default one is a pain in the ass.
[11:32] <tomreyn> Kingsy: you could install ubuntu precise and enjoy its remaining ~6 months of partial security support with the version you want to use.
[11:33] <tomreyn> Kingsy: ...just for this application, in a VM.
[11:33] <OerHeks> Kingsy, even if you run precise 12.04 in a vm, python will be 2.7 2.7.3-0ubuntu3.9
[11:38] <Eightynine> Hi. Will Ubuntu work with Skylake?
[11:38] <tomreyn> Eightynine: generally, yes.
[11:39] <shivra_> haxabja: if you are using Ubuntu 13.10 and newer just click on AppIndicator of your current keyboard layout and click Text Entry Settings.. you can change it there
[11:39] <Eightynine> Does it support Secure Boot?
[11:39] <Mercury_> I am unable to write data to serial USB port /dev/ttyUSB2, using `echo "ATI" > /dev/ttyUSB2` but its working via minicom. Any ideas ?
[11:40] <tomreyn> Eightynine: yes, ubuntu kernels are signed.
[11:40] <Mercury_> I am unable to write data to serial USB port /dev/ttyUSB2, using `echo "ATI" > /dev/ttyUSB2` but its working via minicom. Any ideas ?
[11:41] <tomreyn> Eightynine: persionally i would recommend against using secureboot if you have a choice, though. mostly for political reasons which don't belong into this channel. (we could discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic if your nickname is registered and you wwould like to discuss it.)
[11:42] <mozart1893> can anyone help with the AWS Floating IP setup for failover purposes
[11:43] <Eightynine> I need a fast and stable system to replace Windows 10 on my PC, I don't want a system which decides for me what to do.
[11:44] <mozart1893> can anyone help with the AWS Floating IP setup for failover purposes
[11:44] <tomreyn> Eightynine: go with one of xubuntu, ubuntu-mate, or lubuntu 16.04 lts.
[11:45] <Eightynine> And what about Ubuntu GNOME?
[11:45] <tomreyn> Eightynine: gnome is not as fast as those i listed, but the difference is not huge.
[11:46] <tomreyn> Eightynine: you can install them side by side and switch between them by just loggin out and back in.
[11:46] <Eightynine> Ubuntu MATE comes with Compiz?
[11:47] <tomreyn> Eightynine: yes, but i think you can disable or reduce compositing to a minimum.
[11:47] <mozart1893> can anyone help with the AWS Floating IP setup for failover purposes
[11:48] <tomreyn> Eightynine: actually ubuntu-mate comes with compiz but compiz is disabled by default (based on what i just read)
[11:48] <mozart1893> can anyone help with the AWS Floating IP setup for failover purposes
[11:48] <tomreyn> !repeat | mozart1893
[11:49] <tomreyn> mozart1893: maybe try asking this in ##aws
[11:50] <Eightynine> Thouth I have 4 GB RAM and not bad CPU I want light and fast system. I don't like MATE menu and file manager in XFCE. Can I choose Cinnamon? Is it stable? It was buggy when I used it last time
[11:50] <Mercury_> Srry, got DC, I am unable to write data to a usb serial port using `echo "ATI" > /dev/ttyUSB2` but its working using minicom with same user. Any ideas ?
[11:51] <mozart1893> tomreyn: thanks...
[11:53] <tomreyn> Eightynine: cinnamon 2.2.14-1 is available in ubuntu 16.04.1
[11:53] <tomreyn> i have no first hand experience with it, so can't comment on stability.
[11:54] <Eightynine> It's older version. Is there at least 2.8 or the latest 3.2?
[11:54] <tomreyn> not in the official repositories.
[11:55] <sweb> is there any tools for manage and automatic update /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname ?
[11:55] <sweb> what's tools name ?
[11:55] <tomreyn> sweb: manage and update how?
[11:56] <sweb> tomreyn: i have multiple node for example for database and DFS hosts ... i need to automatic update them in one place other servers update their hosts name and /etc/hosts
[11:58] <tomreyn> Mercury_: i don't think you just echo stuff to a serial tty. minicom and other terminal emulators understand and use the proper protocol. that's also why you need to provide certain parameters when setting up a serial connection.
[11:59] <tomreyn> sweb: use DNS, that's what it's for.
[12:00] <tomreyn> sweb: and dhcp for the hostnames
[12:02] <nicanaca0> chat i'm going mad! is it possible to disable the highlight-to-copy and middle-click-to-paste "feature" in ubuntu?
[12:10] <tomreyn> nicanaca0: it's a standard X feature (and has been that for some 20 or 30 years). i'm not aware of a way to disable the paste on MMB click specifically, but you can disable the MMB entirely using: xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 25 3 4 5 6 7 8 9"
[12:11] <tomreyn> To persist this (after X restart / reboot) please the following in ~/.Xmodmap: pointer = 1 25 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
[12:11] <tomreyn> this is based on a web search, i have not tested it.
[12:12] <vahe> stopped working the light on the keyboard after reinstalling Ubuntu, any ideas?
[12:13] <nicanaca0> the MMB is actually not too bad, it's the highlighting text overriding the clipboard which is annoying. I'm just trying out clipman (don't need anything from it but it seems it can disable the copy on select stuff)
[12:21] <Mercury_> tomreyn: yes this is why i have used stty to set other parameters prior to it like baudrate,etc.
[12:25] <tomreyn> Mercury_: maybe unbuffe ris what you want? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4233808/piping-data-to-linux-program-which-expects-a-tty-terminal

[12:46] <tomreyn> chisung: do you have an (english language) ubuntu support question?
[12:49] <chisung> maybe not
[12:50] <roy_> help
[12:52] <theoceaniscool> roy_, Try to state your problem in a more detailed way than "help"
[12:52] <iceroot> hi
[12:52] <iceroot> are all (default) repos from ubuntu part of the security team and updates? or only content of the main repo?
[12:53] <theoceaniscool> iceroot, If you mean that all DEFAULT repos are checked by Canonical (The business behind Ubuntu), then yes
[12:55] <iceroot> theoceaniscool, ok. then i guess it was "in lts releases, only main packages get 5 years of support, the rest 18 month). if i remember correctly there was a restriction with everything not inside main repo
[12:56] <rifter> ties this morning
[12:57] <theoceaniscool> iceroot, There are external repos (and PPAs) which are mantained by third parties, for which you have no guarantee. But the main system (not necessarily packages) are supported up to 5 years ( in LTS releases)
[12:58] <black-moses> hey
[12:58] <black-moses> go to your terminal
[12:58] <black-moses> and type
[12:58] <black-moses> hollywood
[12:59] <iceroot> theoceaniscool, hm, ok. Dont have an ubuntu here atm but if i am correct with "apt-cache show packagename" there was also a line "support". And inside LTS releases not all packages to have 5 years but i cant recheck it atm, because of missing ubuntu here but of course thank you for your help
[13:08] <banzai> hi
[13:09] <g4gg2> hi
[13:09] <black-moses> hi banzai
[13:09] <g4gg2> where can i download 14.04.2 ubuntu ? i can only see 16.04
[13:10] <Guest23631> how can i uninstall certain app from terminal?
[13:10] <Guest23631> hi black-moses
[13:10] <acicula> Guest23631: apt-get uninstall <package-name>
[13:10] <Guest23631> acicula thanks
[13:11] <acicula> err remove even, sorry
[13:11] <ice9> what's  the kernel params needed to unlock encrypted root during boot?
[13:11] <acicula> ice9: depends on how the encryption is setup, are you us luks or?
[13:11] <Guest23631> when i freshly installed ubuntu 16.04 the ubuntu software has been crashed and so i installed ubuntu software center
[13:12] <ice9> acicula, luks with keyfile on usb stick
[13:12] <Guest23631> Q : what is the most updated : is it ubuntu software or ubuntu software center
[13:14] <acicula> ice9: is /boot encrypted too?
[13:14] <Kingsy> anyone seen this stacktrace before? http://hastebin.com/udawikalok.md <-- just asking around see if anyone can shed any light :)
[13:15] <chisung> hello
[13:15] <ice9> acicula, boot is on  the usb stick too, so i just need to know the kernel params to provide the cryptkey and the cryptdevice
[13:15] <chisung> hahahaha
[13:15] <chisung> hohohohohohoho
[13:16] <acicula> ice9: i think you have to specify cryptdevice and cryptkey
[13:16] <acicula> ice9: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Device_encryption
[13:16] <ice9> acicula, i already tried cryptkey= and cryptdeivce= params but it won't get unlocked
[13:16] <ice9> same setup is working fine with Arch but in Ubuntu it doesn't
[13:16] <acicula> ice9: different device names perhaps?
[13:17] <ice9> acicula, it's the same disk
[13:17] <ice9> and i'm using UUID
[13:17] <acicula> ice9: only one hard drive in the system?
[13:17] <acicula> ah ok, that should be static yeah
[13:17] <ice9> acicula, yes, full disk encryption, lvm over luks
[13:17] <acicula> then idk what could be the issue
[13:19] <ice9> acicula, may be the initrd doesn't have the lvm/encrypt hooks by default?
[13:19] <ice9> where to add them?
[13:19] <p_d> do we use sudo as prefix during Local package installation in command "dpkg -i package_file*.deb" ?
[13:20] <ice9> how to chroot to ubuntu root from another linux distro?
[13:22] <banzai27> i recently installed new Ram and i want to add more swap space... i choose an extended partition fs=ntfs
[13:22] <acicula> ice9: i've seen suggestions to regenerate the initrd but idk if that helps
[13:22] <banzai27> now its shrinking space but took a whole lot of time
[13:22] <banzai27> am i doing it wrong?
[13:22] <acicula> ice9: mount the root somewhere, then bind the proc sys  and dev filesystems, then just chroot /mount/point
[13:23] <acicula> ie mount -o bind /proc /path/to/mount/proc
[13:36] <ice9> acicula, when i run the chroot command I get "groups: cannot find name for group ID 19"
[13:36] <p_d> I cant install Virtualbox. I ran "dpkg -i package_file*.deb" in the downloaded .deb file. this was the output - http://imgur.com/a/P25OQ  ..Please help me with installation
[13:38] <p_d> .deb file folder*
[13:42] <acicula> ice9: does it still go into the chroot?
[13:43] <banzai27> helo
[13:43] <acicula> p_d: its telling you to shutdown all Virtualbox instances and restart
[13:43] <acicula> p_d: though why are you manually installing debs instead of using apt-get?
[13:43] <ice9> acicula, only change the prompt but no command work
[13:44] <acicula> p_d: unless you now what you are doing and need a particular feature i wouldnt really recommend doing it that way
[13:44] <acicula> ice9: /bin/bash and then source /etc/profile
[13:44] <acicula> does that work
[13:44] <p_d> acicula: yea I'm manually installing .. What do you suggest should download it via apt-get?
[13:44] <ice9> acicula, /bin/bash throw the same error message
[13:45] <acicula> p_d: you are trying to update/install virtualbox
[13:45] <p_d> acicula, install
[13:45] <acicula> p_d: then try using apt-get or the software repository to install it for you
[13:45] <ice9> acicula, ithink i'm inside the chroot but bash isn't working
[13:46] <clarkk> I've noticed that aptitude does not show that a package is installed, even though it is. Does anyone know what causes this and how I can fix it?
[13:46] <EriC^^> ice9: what exactly are you trying to do?
[13:46] <p_d> acicula, apt-get install virtualbox right?
[13:46] <acicula> ice9: did you boot a rescue cd and drop to a root shell and then tried to chroot or something else?
[13:46] <ice9> acicula, i'm trying to chroot from working system
[13:46] <acicula> p_d: i believe so, it has a few supporting packages that you may need
[13:46] <p_d> okay thanks v.much
[13:49] <acicula> ice9: idk, id try it again from a rescuecd, it sounds like some issue with your current groups not existing within the chroot, but i dont see how that would be an issue
[13:49] <clarkk> I've noticed that aptitude does not show that a package is installed, even though it is. Does anyone know what causes this and how I can fix it?
[13:50] <p_d> acicula: it says - "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem."
[13:50] <acicula> p_d: ah yeah, you may want to try and purge the virtualbox package you tried to install before
[13:51] <acicula> ie apt-get remove <package-name>
[13:51] <contrapunctus> o/
[13:51] <acicula> the error is because the previous installation was only half finished, so that is why you get the message to finishig configuring (everything)
[13:52] <p_d> acicula, do I need to run "apt-get remove virtualbox" befor apt-get?
[13:52] <acicula> p_d: yeah, or may have to use dpkg to remove it
[13:53] <banzai27> hi
[13:53] <banzai27> how do i  update xchat-gnome to newer version?
[13:54] <p_d> acicula, " sudo apt-get remove virtualbox" says "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem."
[13:54] <p_d> what I need to run now?
[13:54] <contrapunctus> banzai27: "sudo apt update && sudo apt install xchat-gnome" I guess
[13:55] <acicula> p_d: sudo dpkg --remove virtualbox does that work
[13:56] <banzai27> contrapunctus: will do
[13:57] <p_d> acicula, it says "dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove virtualbox, only the config
[13:57] <p_d>  files of which are on the system; use --purge to remove them too
[13:57] <p_d> "
[13:58] <acicula> add --force-remove-reinstreq before virtualbox
[13:59] <contrapunctus> I just tried upgrading this Dellbuntu from 14.04 to 16.04, but dpkg reported errors in installing/configuring the new kernel (!). The notebook, as you may expect, now refuses to boot (goes to a blank screen after the bootloader menu, with the Caps Lock light continually blinking.). Any ideas?
[14:00] <manners13> hey guys i wonder if anyone could help as i havent got a clue where to start
[14:00] <manners13> i have a 8tb usb raid box which seems to work if i reboot the machine but after while it just disconnects
[14:01] <manners13> if i then reset the usb port i can get it to come back but not always
[14:01] <acicula> 8tb raid box over usb?
[14:01] <manners13> sometimes i have to wait for the device number to change then it will mount again
[14:01] <manners13> yup a sharkoon raid box
[14:01] <manners13> works on usb3
[14:02] <acicula> yeah i figured it would, cant imagine using an 8Tb box over usb2.0 :P
[14:02] <manners13> lol
[14:02] <acicula> when you say device number
[14:02] <acicula> what is changing?
[14:02] <manners13> like usb 1 device 5
[14:02] <manners13> which changes to 6
[14:02] <manners13> etc
[14:03] <acicula> can you pastebin your dmesg output somewhere?
[14:03] <manners13> kk
[14:05] <karstenk> Hello!  Is there a method to show the real boot sequence of services?
[14:06] <EriC^^> karstenk: systemd-analyze blame ?
[14:07] <manners13> http://pastebin.com/aTPWNzpu
[14:08] <karstenk> EriC^^  that should be the seqence of booting?  what does the first column with ms show?
[14:09] <EriC^^> karstenk: time it took to initialize
[14:10] <karstenk> but that could not be what I want. that is ordered by ms and not how it is the configured init
[14:10] <phreeme> have a strange issue with ubuntu. if a window is restored I mean not maximized, when another window gains focus the window in the background keeps it shape but has the desktop wallpaper painted over it.. I can sometime give the window focus and it corrects it and sometimes have to maximize it to redraw its contents
[14:10] <clarkk> I'm just about to upgrade my installation of ubuntu from 12.04 to 14, and I'm going to do it via update-manager.  Is it best to disable all 3rd party repositories before doing so?
[14:11] <acicula> manners13: so its disconnecting the drive because there are errors reading from it
[14:11] <manners13> yup
[14:11] <manners13> how can i fix it
[14:11] <acicula> is there a sleep mode or something like that on the device?
[14:11] <karstenk> Eric^^ as this command returns that webmin, psql,mysql and proftp started before networking?
[14:11] <www-bukolay-net> Hi
[14:11] <p_d> acicula, it says -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23558182/
[14:12] <acicula> p_d: --remove --force-remove-reinstreq virtualbox
[14:12] <manners13> yes it does have one
[14:12] <acicula> can you turn it off
[14:12] <manners13> aparently it sleeps after 30 mins
[14:12] <EriC^^> karstenk: ah i think it doesn't give the actual order
[14:13] <acicula> or disable it, (idk the product)
[14:13] <p_d> acicula, sorry i really didnt get this one, what to remove?
[14:13] <EriC^^> karstenk: there's systemd-analyze plot
[14:13] <manners13> not that i can find
[14:14] <manners13> https://www.sharkoon.com/Download/Storage_Solutions/Raid/5-Bay_RAID_Station/manual_5-bay_raid_station_en.pdf
[14:14] <EriC^^> karstenk: systemd-analyze plot > something.svg
[14:14] <manners13> thats the manual for the box
[14:15] <manners13> i had the same thing previously that worked for around 7 years without any problems
[14:15] <manners13> then it died so i replaced with the same one
[14:21] <p_d> acicula, --remove --force-remove-reinstreq virtualbox says - http://paste.ubuntu.com/23558218/
[14:23] <p_d> you there acicula?
[14:27] <p_d> " sudo apt-get install virtualbox" says http://paste.ubuntu.com/23558246/ ..anyone knows how to tackle this prob.?

[14:30] <Sebastiaan5> hello
[14:30] <tomreyn> p_d: decide whether you want to use ubuntu's APT repository for virtualbox or that of oracle and configure the repositories to pull fomr on your system accordingly (and apt-get update). then remove any packages not sourced from these repositories you end up with. then install virtualbox from the repositories you have enabled.
[14:31] <tomreyn> (be aware thatthis could effectively result in downgrading virtualbox, which may make existing VMs unbootable)
[14:31]  * tomreyn afk
[14:33] <Sebastiaan5> I have a question about Iptables vs NFtables anyone can answer?
[14:34] <p_d> tomreyn: I'm pretty much new in these ubuntu and all.. I cant decide really ..I previously installed virtualbox through "apt-get install virtualbox" now I need this again.. Can you tell me the steps I need to perform thats what am looking for

[14:49] <taofeng> Ubuntu deployment openwrt development environment why so slow
[14:50] <taofeng> Download source in China for a long time
[14:51] <taofeng> I think ubuntu10.04 handy
[14:53] <thebwt> p_d: for 16.04 did you follow the instructions here? https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[14:53] <thebwt> under "Debian-based Linux distributions"
[14:53] <midori-rus> thxer ok, I have found and disabled windows secure boot. But it still did not helped me. Do I need to re-install ubuntu after the disabling?
[14:54] <Dr-008> im trying to log stuff to /var/log/ as user 'server' this is not allowed. can only root log stuff? (and group 'syslog'?)
[14:54] <Dr-008> or should i place my user 'server' in the group 'syslog'?
[14:54] <thxer> midori-rus, no if you have a backup use boot-repair
[14:54] <thxer> it will install grub and configure it for u
[14:55] <thxer> but do a backup before, some time boot repair fail
[14:55] <midori-rus> thxer: at the momend I have windows and installed ubuntu which I can't run. Do I need to run boot-repair using ubuntu live cd?
[14:56] <p_d> thebwt, I'm a very complete beginner in linux I just entered in this world can you please mind helping me? I dont know what to replace in this -"deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian xenial contrib"
[14:56] <thxer> midori-rus, solution are here : http://www.everydaylinuxuser.com/2014/05/install-ubuntu-1404-alongside-windows.html  // At the end boot-repair
[14:57] <thebwt> p_d: if you're using xenial, that line is fine as is
[14:57] <thebwt> p_d: 16.04 == xenial
[14:57] <thxer> boot repair will do job need to run boot-repair using ubuntu live cd? // yes
[14:58] <p_d> thebwt, do i need to add anything like sudo, get something like that?
[14:58] <p_d> should I straightforward copy paste in terminal?
[14:58] <mathematic-alpha> hello everyone i have some issues
[14:58] <thebwt> p_d: have you used vim or nano before?
[14:59] <p_d> thebwt, no
[14:59] <thebwt> p_d: then do this "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[14:59] <backbox> hello
[15:00] <thebwt> p_d: actually, close that file. it's better if you make a new one.
[15:00] <p_d> thebwt, which file you are referring to?
[15:00] <thebwt> p_d: "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vbox.list" which should open an epty file.
[15:00] <thebwt> empty*
[15:00] <thebwt> sources.list, which lists all the ubuntu repo info
[15:01] <p_d> thebwt, should I run this "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vbox.list" now on my terminal?
[15:01] <thebwt> Yessir
[15:02] <p_d> yea it open an empty file
[15:02] <svoy> народ кто поможет обновить убунту 15.10 до16.10
[15:02] <thebwt> perfecto, paste that line from the vbox page into it
[15:02] <pavlos> !ru
[15:02] <thebwt> p_d: "deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian xenial contrib"
[15:02] <p_d> thebwt, done
[15:03] <thebwt> p_d: save, close
[15:03] <p_d> thebwt, done
[15:03] <thebwt> p_d: you've told the software apt, where to look. Now we need to tell it how to verify the software (so if the site ever got hacked, people couldn't upload fake packages)
[15:03] <svoy> #ubuntu-ru
[15:04] <thebwt> so with gedit closed, do you have your terminal back?
[15:04] <p_d> thebwt, yes

[15:04] <Mitchell92> Hello. How is ubuntu functionality on two in one ultrabooks? Is there a good interface for touch screen, and does it automatically disable the keyboard / touch pad once its folded over into tablet mode?
[15:04] <thebwt> p_d: bueno, run 'wget https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox_2016.asc'
[15:05] <thebwt> p_d: that downloads the file at that url to the current working directory
[15:06]  * thebwt is assuming wget comes default on current kicks....
[15:06] <p_d> thebwt, downloaded
[15:07] <thebwt> p_d: sweet, so now you need to add it to your apt keyring 'sudo apt-key add ./oracle_vbox_2016.asc'
[15:07] <dioo> we
[15:08] <p_d> thebwt, it says "OK"
[15:09] <thebwt> p_d: cool, so moment of truth. run 'sudo apt-get update' . This commands refreshes the package metadata list, think of it as grabbing the latest catalouge from the various repos.
[15:09] <thebwt> we're hoping for now errors
[15:09] <p_d> thebwt, now its downloading something
[15:09] <thebwt> yup, the metadata lists
[15:10] <p_d> Oh kay
[15:10] <thebwt> p_d: so if that completes without errors, try out 'sudo apt-get install virtualbox-5.1'
[15:11] <p_d> thebwt, what's 5.1? is it a version?
[15:11] <thebwt> yes, I'm mostly quoting the docs, I assume that's the new2est
[15:12] <thebwt> the idea is to freeze your version at the lastest major release. If vbox6.0 comes out, you don't want your system to upgrade to it automatically.
[15:12] <thebwt> Because you may actually loose compatibility with your existing vm's
[15:12] <thebwt> lose*
[15:13] <p_d> thebwt, please read this sir- http://paste.ubuntu.com/23558431/ last line gives some error(idk)
[15:13] <dioo> wqe
[15:13] <Dioporcone> tgr
[15:14] <p_d> hmm thats the good thing
[15:14] <Dioporcone> uela
[15:17] <p_d> thebwt, you there?
[15:19] <acicula> p_d: same problem still
[15:19] <thebwt> p_d: sec
[15:19] <p_d> yes acicula
[15:19] <p_d> thebwt okay
[15:19] <acicula> thebwt: he has an unfinished installed deb from virtualbox that is in a broken stage, needs to purge/remove the one he installed via dpkg
[15:20] <acicula> or finish setting it up again perhaps?
[15:20] <thebwt> gotcha, let's remove that because installing via dpkg directly is less than ideal
[15:21] <acicula> tried dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq but that didnt work
[15:21] <thebwt> against what?
[15:21]  * thebwt scrolls
[15:21] <acicula> for p_d to remove virtualbox
[15:21] <p_d> hmm
[15:21] <acicula> but then it still complained about the broken state and please run dpkg-reconfigure etc
[15:22] <thebwt> p_d: do this, 'dpkg -l | grep virtualbox' and pate for us
[15:22] <p_d> sure
[15:22] <thebwt> PASTE*
[15:23] <p_d> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23558476/

[15:26] <jost> Sorry for reposting - not sure if my messages arrived:
[15:26] <jost>  Hi! One of my servers (14.04 LTS) ran out of disk space for the root (/) partition, because of automatic updates. Some updates where left not installed or unconfigured. I decreased the root-reserved disk space for that partition, so there is now some room left (~360MB), and tried to run sudo dpkg --configure -a, which aborts because linux-headers-3.19.0-74 is not installed. So I try to install that package
[15:26] <jost>  using ` apt-get -f install`, which fails - the error message is "error creating directory `./usr/src/linux-headers-3.19.0-74/include/linux/mfd/samsung': No space left on device". Apt tells me: "After this operation, 66,2 MB of additional disk space will be used." Why does this fail? There are about 360MB room left on that disk...
[15:26] <jost>  What can I do to get the system running again? And how do I prevent the auto-updates filling the disk with old kernels? Should I just run "apt-get autoremove -y" in a cronjob once a week?
[15:26] <micmak> hello everyone. i am having a problem with a debian installation. everything was working fine and suddenly today everything hangs when connecting remotely after some time. ssh/telnet/plex/sftp/ftp they all connect and works for few seconds than it hangs. any ideas? i don't have problem with the internet if i am connected locally on the server. both server and client are on lan
[15:27] <thebwt> jost: does 'apt-get autoremove' do anything?
[15:27] <p_d> thebwt, "dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq virtualbox virtualbox-qt virtualbox-5.1" should I run this?
[15:27] <thebwt> p_d: yes
[15:27] <p_d> okay
[15:27] <thebwt> jost: and is /boot on a separate partition?
[15:28] <jost> thebwt: Yes, it tells me that it'll remove about 15 kernels and install the missing package, and then aborts with the same error message as posted above
[15:28] <TigerMonarchy> morning all. on my onscreen keyboard so I might be slow.
[15:28] <jost> thebwt: yes, it's a separate partition and has 398MB left (~50%)
[15:28] <thebwt> hmm
[15:29] <p_d> thebwt, this is the result - http://paste.ubuntu.com/23558504/
[15:29] <TigerMonarchy> my knucker keyboard is not working correctly after upgrading my kernel
[15:29] <p_d> idk if it's removed or what
[15:29] <jost> I've got an idea - I'll remove some of the old kernels manually... will come back with the results.
[15:30] <thebwt> p_d: it did, we should also doa  --purge on that though
[15:30] <p_d> thebwt, okay ..
[15:30] <TigerMonarchy> was working before upgrade, now just inputs wrong commands on keypresses
[15:30] <thebwt> p_d: dpkg --remove --purge --force-remove-reinstreq virtualbox virtualbox-qt virtualbox-5.1
[15:31] <p_d> okay running this ^^
[15:31] <TigerMonarchy> if anyone can help, i'd appreciate it
[15:32] <thebwt> TigerMonarchy: may just need to install the old kernel version. Are you on the lts kernel or the hwe one?
[15:32] <p_d> thebwt, it gives an error- http://paste.ubuntu.com/23558521/
[15:32] <thebwt> TigerMonarchy: in fact, if you reboot and use the grub menu to load the old one, does the keyboard work as intended?
[15:33] <thebwt> p_d: hmm, just take out the --remove then
[15:33] <amikrop> I want to create a launcher for a combined command, as to run the first one, and then start the 2nd one (while the 1st is still running).. What do I put in the Exec clause? first && second ? or first & second ?
[15:33] <p_d> okay
[15:33] <TigerMonarchy> nope. hence why i came here
[15:33] <TigerMonarchy> booted from prev kernel to check. still on it
[15:34] <thebwt> TigerMonarchy: weird, then it's not the kernel update that did it. Was there x11 updates too?
[15:35] <TigerMonarchy> i not sure. just ran the list.
[15:36] <p_d> thebwt, gives some kind of warning - http://paste.ubuntu.com/23558534/
[15:36] <acicula> thats actually ok
[15:36] <thebwt> p_d: that's a good warning, so now 'sudo apt-get instll virtualbox-5.1'
[15:37] <p_d> ohh
[15:38] <p_d> now its installing some files around of 65 MB
[15:38] <p_d> its virtualbox i guess
[15:38]  * thebwt crosses fingers
[15:38] <jost> Ok, so I googled a bit and the problem is, that my root partition is out of inodes
[15:38] <jost> how can I fix that?
[15:39] <p_d> will tell you result after 10 mins
[15:39] <thebwt> jost: gonna need to rm some stuff, not a great spot to be in.
[15:40] <thebwt> jost: so I'm guessing this is some kind of cloud device, it could be wordpress image overload or a full mail spool
[15:40] <thebwt> TigerMonarchy: I am not sure how to proceed, I'm not desktop inclined with all this :/
[15:40] <jost> thebwt: no, it is't a cloud device, just a virtual server somewhere... I'll check if there is a ton of small files somewhere
[15:41] <thebwt> jost: 'qshape active'
[15:43] <TigerMonarchy> thanks
[15:44] <thebwt> jost: you can also do 'du -sh --inode /dir/i/suspect/exploded'
[15:46] <bunjee> anyone on?
[15:46] <mhoney> when installing ubuntu 16.04 on LSI 9260 the raid is seen as an SD device, but after install/reboot grub sees it as HD device, any tips on fixing this?
[15:46] <bunjee> need help transfering files from external hdd......anyone help?
[15:47] <izzno> bunjee, exfat utils
[15:47] <bunjee> izzno - what's that?..........newby here.....
[15:47] <BluesKaj> bunjee, got the uuid for the externel setup in /etc/fstab?
[15:48] <izzno> bunjee, a package that recognizes most fat partitions
[15:48] <bitirici> bu nası bi yer hacı mantığı nedir?
[15:48] <BluesKaj> bunjee, or install samba
[15:48] <genii> mhoney: You must have a custom kernel, because normally *buntu uses SCSI compatibility layer so that all hdd apear as sdX and not hdX
[15:48] <harishkrupo> grub is unable to detect my initrd file. it detects only the ucode.img. Any suggestions?
[15:49] <mhoney> genii, just usung standard install image.  Seems like it might be a grub issue
[15:50] <EriC^^> harishkrupo: maybe it doesn't exist?
[15:51] <harishkrupo> EriC^^: it exists
[15:51] <harishkrupo> it is just unable to find it
[15:51] <EriC^^> harishkrupo: in a grub prompt ls /boot doesn't show it?
[15:52] <genii> mhoney: GRUB will see them as like hd(0), hd(1), hd(0,1) and like this, yes. That's normal. But after loading kernel and initrd the first hard drive should be sda like normal, unless something like you're getting dropped to GRUB command-line
[15:52] <genii> work, afk
[15:53] <im-so> hi, why after I while ubuntu becomes slow? I have reinstalled os ~1 week ago, and installed about 8 apps only
[15:53] <bunjee> izzno - how to install exfat utils?
[15:54] <harishkrupo> EriC^^: it shows
[15:54] <EriC^^> harishkrupo: ok, does initrd /boot/init..... work?
[15:54] <harishkrupo> EriC^^: the problem is update-grub2 doesnot write it to the cfg file
[15:54] <harishkrupo> yup
[15:54] <EriC^^> harishkrupo: aha
[15:54] <EriC^^> what does it write?
[15:55] <harishkrupo> EriC^^: it writes initrd /boot/ucode.img. it should write initrd /boot/ucode.img /boot/initrd.img
[15:56] <okan_> Hello
[15:57] <clarkk> I have used synoptic to remove a load of third-party packages, because I want to upgrade the system. I have then gone into aptitude, and it says that it's going to reinstall some of them (they are listed under "Packages to be installed" with a "p" in the left-most column. Can someone
[15:57] <clarkk> explain why this is, please?
[15:58] <clarkk> when I look at the details panel for them, they don't say there's any dependency conflict
[15:59] <harishkrupo> clarkk: upgrading to a different version of ubuntu or package upgrade?
[15:59] <bunjee> how to apply this - uuid for the externel setup in /etc/fstab?
[15:59] <okan_> This Polari irc client really sucks :P
[16:00] <clarkk> harishkrupo: upgrading from 12.04 to 14. But this issue is not related to upgrading. Why won't it let me uninstall these 3rd party packages?
[16:00] <clarkk> it says they are uninstalled, but it seems to be forcing me to install them again
[16:00] <harishkrupo> could you give an example?
[16:01] <clarkk> for example, the package, puddletag
[16:02] <clarkk> here is a screenshot  https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14392713/temp/Selection_423.png
[16:02] <harishkrupo> clarkk: did you completely remove the package?
[16:03] <clarkk> yes, but I didn't purge it, because I want to keep the configuration files (in my user dir)
[16:03] <harishkrupo> take a backup and try doing a purge
[16:03] <harishkrupo> no purge doesn't delete files in your user dir
[16:04] <clarkk> why do I need to do that?
[16:04] <harishkrupo> only system (global) files
[16:04] <clarkk> Is my understanding of how it is supposed to work incorrect?  Or is this not working as expected?
[16:05] <clarkk> ok, thanks. One moment...
[16:05] <harishkrupo> I recently upgraded, it didn't ask me to install
[16:05] <harishkrupo> so this is weird
[16:07] <im-so> when I try use sudo apt-get... I get this error, rtz is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported. And when i try to login as root, i get Authentication failure error, how to fix it?
[16:08] <clarkk> harishkrupo: did you see my screenshot? Is there any way in aptitude to purge those packages that are listed under "to be installed"?
[16:08] <harishkrupo> im-so: do you have any other user in your system?
[16:08] <im-so> harishkrupo: no
[16:08] <harishkrupo> clarkk: i dont know about aptitude but apt-get purge <package> will do the job
[16:09] <bunjee> can anyone help me copy files from an external hdd?
[16:09] <harishkrupo> im-so: is this a new problem?
[16:09] <im-so> harishkrupo: Yestarday everything was ok, today I come back from work and problem just showed up
[16:10] <harishkrupo> im-so: be default the root account is locked in ubuntu
[16:10] <im-so> harishkrupo: how could that happen? and how to fix it?
[16:11] <harishkrupo> im-so: to solve this you need to go into recovery, drop to root shell and add your user name to the sudoers file
[16:11] <im-so> harishkrupo: ok, I gonna try, thanks
[16:12] <nedbat> Looking at this page: http://releases.ubuntu.com/xenial/ , it seems like there's a bunch of text copied and pasted at the top... Am I misunderstanding something?
[16:13] <nedbat> I'm looking for the "alternate install" that provided more options when installing a server.  Is that gone for Xenial?
[16:13] <clarkk> harishkrupo: apt-get purge reports that none of those packages are installed
[16:14] <p_d> thebwt, you there
[16:14] <harishkrupo> clarkk: how are you upgrading?
[16:15] <clarkk> harishkrupo: I'm not upgrading yet. I'm trying to resolve this issue. When I do, though, I'll use update-manager
[16:16] <harishkrupo> after purging those packages try update-manager to check if it tries to install those packages
[16:17] <clarkk> ok, thank you
[16:18] <p_d> acicula, ..
[16:19] <clarkk> harishkrupo: which of the ppas should I disable before upgrading?  Just 3rd party, or do I need to also disable some that come with Ubuntu (but are initially disabled)?  If I have to disable ubuntu's default ones too, then it's going to cause a problem, because there is no way I can
[16:19] <clarkk> uninstall all the packages from them
[16:20] <p_d> After installing/downloading 100% virtualbox ..it gives me an erro - http://imgur.com/a/MbMsf ..how to resolve it"Running VMs found"?
[16:21] <harishkrupo> clarkk: you dont have to worry about the ppas, the update manager takes care of it.
[16:21] <clarkk> oh really?
[16:21] <harishkrupo> clarkk: the official ppas. for the unofficial ones, just comment them. but that should not be a problem
[16:22] <clarkk> harishkrupo: will it also disable all 3rd party repos?
[16:22] <clarkk> (automatically)?
[16:22] <harishkrupo> clarkk: I never disabled anything, i just upgraded. the update manager took care of everything
[16:22] <clarkk> interesting
[16:22] <clarkk> thank you! :)
[16:25] <p_d> Anyone have any experience with virtualbox?
[16:25] <clarkk> I've just noticed that all my 3rd party repos are in separate files in /etc/apt/sources.list/.  I'm sure programmatically, it would be very easy for the upgrade manager to simply ignore them. Do you think that's what it does harishkrupo?
[16:26] <tgm4883> clarkk: it disables them automatically
[16:26] <clarkk> fantastic!  Thank you harishkrupo and tgm4883
[16:28] <harishkrupo> clarkk: yes, thats exactly what it does
[16:28] <quup> Hi, I'm getting a bunch of "thermald[930]: sysfs write failed trip_point_0_temp" messages in the log, roughly once every 5-30s. Running /usr/bin/sensors doesn't show any high temperature. What's the message about?
[16:31] <gthank> Does Xenial server ship with any default firewall rules?
[16:35] <lotuspsychje> !firewall | gthank
[16:36] <lotuspsychje> gthank: see also #ubuntu-server for deeper investigation
[16:36] <soledad_> hola
[16:38] <gthank> thanks
[16:40] <chippy> Hello - if i remove imagemagick and then sudo apt-get source --compile imagemagick and then sudo dpkg -i *.deb to install the local packages . when security updates to imagemagick  get released would imagemagick be included in the list of things to upgrade?
[16:40] <chippy> should I mark the packages to hold in that case?
[16:41] <chippy> this is because imagemagick on 16.04 doesnt have support for Jp2 files (its a known bug)
[16:42] <xangua> chippy: if you remove a package you'll also stop receiving updates
[16:43] <chippy> xangua, but im compiling the package from source and installing from local deb file
[16:43] <ducasse> chippy: you should hold it, if a higher version comes through it will be updated
[16:43] <EriC^^> chippy: i think it would update it
[16:43] <EriC^^> not sure though
[16:43] <chippy> aptitude show imagemagick shows state: installed
[16:45] <chippy> yeah, doing a apt install says it's already the same version (which it is just with a fixed bug)
[16:45] <chippy> Thanks
[16:53] <arooni> question; i have a t420 laptop that kernel panics every time I try to suspend/resume.  running ubuntu 16.04;  what should i do?
[17:05] <pchoo> arooni: I was recently helped through something like that, does it also occur when you log out/shutdown, or only on suspend?
[17:06] <arooni> pchoo: only on suspend
[17:06] <pchoo> I was recommended to follow this: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/kernel-crash-dump.html
[17:06] <pchoo> That was you can get the crash dump and diagnose further there
[17:06] <p_d> thebwt, you there?
[17:08] <p_d> How to remove virtualbox?
[17:08] <arooni> pchoo: got it;  installed it and rebooting; then i'll try to suspend/resume and cause the error
[17:10] <Richard_Cavell> Hello everyone.  I'm trying to boot from the Ubuntu 16.04.1 AMD64 DVD on an iMac5,1.  I get to this screen with a blinking cursor.  No amount of typing on the keyboard or mouse input makes it get past this screen - the cursor flashes quickly but it doesn't seem to accept input.  I get the same problem with Ubuntu Mate and Mint, but not Debian.  Any ideas?  http://pasteboard.co/4eAVOF230.jpg
[17:11] <compdoc> Richard_Cavell, is the keyboard usb?
[17:11] <Richard_Cavell> Yes
[17:13] <compdoc> Richard_Cavell, Ive never seen that prompt booting the standard desktop image. might be asking to boot legacy of UEFI, but cant say. how did you create the boot media?
[17:13] <Richard_Cavell> Burned it with Disk Utility under OS X.  The burn verified.
[17:14] <compdoc> you downloaded the iso file?
[17:14] <Richard_Cavell> Yes
[17:15] <Richard_Cavell> I get the same problem with Ubuntu Cinnamon, Ubuntu Mate, Mint Cinnamon, but not with Debian Cinnamon nor Debian Mate
[17:15] <compdoc> are there options in the bios to use uefi or legacy boot?
[17:15] <Richard_Cavell> I'm not an expert but I think with iMac you pretty much get EFI only
[17:16] <compdoc> Richard_Cavell, do you have a standard usb keyboard from a non-mac pc?
[17:16] <Richard_Cavell> No but I can get one if you think that will solve it
[17:17] <Richard_Cavell> My Mac keyboard is plugged in via USB by the way
[17:17] <compdoc> might be worth a shot, if it doesnt recognize the keyboard you have.
[17:18] <eranicpo> f someone has SSh key and username+ pass of my github, Can he do a dangerous work on my system?
[17:18] <eranicpo> if
[17:18] <Mercury_> I am trying to echo a text to serial IO using `echo -ne "ATI" > /dev/ttyUSB2` which is not working with minicom it is . Any ideas ?
[17:19] <Pici> eranicpo: your private ssh key?
[17:19] <compdoc> Richard_Cavell, does your mac support usb3 and usb2 ports? are some usb ports colored blue?
[17:20] <monsune> do i have a problem there with such amount of dropped? RX packets:1135192079 errors:0 dropped:10730 overruns:0 frame:0
[17:20] <Richard_Cavell> compdoc: They are not coloured blue, and I can only see that they support up to 480 Mbit/sec
[17:21] <monsune> i mean do drops occur when NIC is failing?
[17:21] <compdoc> USB 2.0 = 480 Mbit/s
[17:21] <compdoc> so thats good
[17:22] <im-so> why sound is laging on ubuntu when I'm multitasking?
[17:23] <wedgie> eranicpo: if your credentials have been compromised you should change them immediately.
[17:25] <Jordan_U> Richard_Cavell: That menu is from your Mac's EFI boot firmware, not Ubuntu (for whatever that's worth). It's (in an extrememly user unfriendly way) asking you if you want to boot the DVD via BIOS or via UEFI.
[17:26] <Richard_Cavell> Jordan_U: Okay.  Thanks for the info.  But I am unable to select anything...
[17:26] <eranicop> sorry for asking again, my sytem rebooted. Should I concern about github key and user+pass?
[17:26] <wedgie> eranicpo: if your credentials have been compromised you should change them immediately.
[17:27] <Jordan_U> Richard_Cavell: Does this keyboard work in the boot firmware at all? For example, if you hold the option key during boot do you get a choice between drives?
[17:28] <Richard_Cavell> Jordan_U: If I hold down the C key, it boots to the optical drive.  That's the only option I get without installing rEFInd, which is a third party boot thing
[17:31] <Jordan_U> Richard_Cavell: OK, you have a few options that I can think of. 1: Get an iso that only has [U]EFI support so that you don't need to chose (I can make this for you, but you'd have to trust me that it is legitimate). 2: Install rEFInd and use it to boot the DVD specifically via EFI instead of via BIOS (CSM). 3: Make a bootable USB drive with the Ubuntu installer that is only bootable via [U]EFI (I can
[17:31] <Jordan_U> help you do this).
[17:36] <Mercury_> anyone any ideas ?
[17:37] <yocs0000> Mercury_: about?
[17:38] <Richard_Cavell> Jordan_U: All 3 of those options sound unpleasant
[17:38] <Richard_Cavell> How do I do the third one?  I don't have a spare USB stick right now but it seems the least unpleasant
[17:38] <Mercury_> I am trying to echo a text to serial IO using `echo -ne "ATI" > /dev/ttyUSB2` which is not working with minicom it is . Any ideas ?
[17:39] <Mercury_> i have already set baudrate and other parameters using stty
[17:39] <Jordan_U> Richard_Cavell: Get a FAT32 USB drive (basically all thumb drives come with Fat32) and copy the files from the iso (or from the DVD you already created from the iso) onto the root of the drive. That should be it.
[17:40] <Richard_Cavell> I could just "burn" the .iso onto the USB stick
[17:40] <Richard_Cavell> then boot to it
[17:41] <Jordan_U> Richard_Cavell: You don't "burn" to hard drives, it's a term specific to optical media. If you used a tool like dd to write the iso to a USB drive the resulting USB drive would be bootable via both [U]EFI and BIOS, which might lead you to the same problem you're having with the DVD.
[17:42] <Random832> Mercury_, are you sure you set the parameters on the right tty? i think stty works on stdin, not stdout
[17:42] <Random832> or you can use stty -F /dev/ttywhatever
[17:44] <Mercury_> Random832: already did the same, i have also tried unbuffered
[17:44] <grnmtn> I recently set up canonical-livepatch on a server, and it looks like the first kernel patch was applied this morning. However, I see that /var/run/reboot-required is present. Is this true, or is whatever creates /var/run/reboot-required unaware of live patching?
[17:44] <Mercury_> If i can get something/anything to provide output to usb serial port using shell script , my work would be done
[17:46] <Random832> Mercury_, maybe it's all the opening and closing that screws things up
[17:46] <Random832> try doing "exec 3>/dev/ttyUSB2" and then using >&3 or /dev/fd/3 for the rest of the script
[17:47] <Random832> and then exec 3>&- to close
[17:47] <porkstore> anyone know how i can recover editing a file when my terminal was disconnected
[17:47] <Random832> porkstore, what text editor were you using?
[17:48] <anthony__> hi
[17:48] <porkstore> i didn't t hink it was possible, but when i try to nano the file it says the file is being edited by <user> and lists a pid
[17:48] <porkstore> but when i ps aux it's not listed
[17:48] <Random832> porkstore, what about ps -p [the pid it said]?
[17:48] <porkstore> otherwise i was going to try reptyr
[17:48] <porkstore> but reptyr can't find the pid
[17:49] <Random832> porkstore, do ps -p [pid], to see if the process exists or not
[17:49] <anthony__> i know its not normal but i need help
[17:49] <porkstore> no, it doesn't seem to exist with ps -p either
[17:49] <Random832> then it doesn't exist, there's probably a lock file or something making nano think it exists.
[17:50] <porkstore> do you imagine the edit is in the lock file or it's hosed
[17:50] <Random832> it might be - i don't know if nano can recover or not
[17:51] <Random832> unfortunately when i try to google it all i find is stuff about vim which uses the same filename
[17:51] <porkstore> oh heyy
[17:51] <biffbaxter> lsof file name?
[17:51] <porkstore> nano saved it with .save
[17:51] <Random832> porkstore, do a hexdump of .file.swp and see if any of your data is in there
 can youhelp me
[17:51] <Random832> anthony__, you haven't even said what you want help with yet
[17:52] <anthony__> no sound
[17:52] <porkstore> it's all there in file.save
[17:52] <porkstore> go nano !
[17:52] <porkstore> thx random
[17:52] <Random832> anthony__, i don't know much about sound systems
[17:53] <Mercury_> Randome832: tried, it didn't helped
[17:53] <anthony__> Random832: ok so is there any one here that may be able to help me
[17:53] <mowru> whats the best way to monitor the auth.log file ?
[17:53] <porkstore> no sound when you installed ubuntu, maybe your audio driver etc
[17:53] <grnmtn> porkstore: I'd suggest using a terminal multiplexer when editing files over ssh, like screen or tmux
[17:53] <porkstore> i know i just forgot to do so
[17:53] <anthony__> well it saysits  there just not playing
[17:54] <porkstore> usually with ubuntu and any common hardware someone else will have had the same problem so if you google ubuntu and your device you might find answers about it
[17:54] <grnmtn> porkstore: yeah, definitely been there ;)
[17:55] <porkstore> not a great response i know
[17:55] <anthony__> yeahi went from windows to ubuntu
[17:55] <Dr-008> the authorized_keys file in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys should be the user:group from the ~/ user dir?
[17:56] <porkstore> anthony__ - in my experience that is the big advantage of ubuntu over other linux distros is you will find tons of documentation for any such issue if you spend some time googling the specific problem and device model number + ubuntu
[17:56] <anthony__> wish i new a computerguy in michigan thatcould help me out a little
[17:57] <grnmtn> Dr-008: I believe authorized_keys should be owned by your user, but group doesn't matter for that particular file
[17:57] <Dr-008> grnmtn, ok thanks
[17:57] <grnmtn> Dr-008: ~/.ssh directory needs to be owned by your user, and permissions set to 700
[17:57] <biffbaxter> no sound on laptop or desktop?
[17:58] <anthony__> is there a dir i can find
[17:58] <anthony__> laptop
[17:58] <Dr-008> anthony__, i bet you wish you lived in canada by now, with all the presidential stupidity lately :p
[17:59] <anthony__> i dont vote on clowns, i was in germany again
[17:59] <biffbaxter> hardware type? and are you sure its not trying to send out via HDMI vs PCH
[18:00] <Jordan_U> !ot | Dr-008 anthony__
[18:00] <anthony__> biffbaxter im not sure with ubuntu im new
[18:01] <anthony__> ubottu: didnt know, im new
[18:01] <biffbaxter> open a terminal and enter cat /proc/asound/cards

[18:05] <noorideenae> Hello guys.. Is Kali safe for new Linux users?
[18:05] <biffbaxter> for what?
[18:05] <noorideenae> For learning security
[18:06] <noorideenae> My friend told me its a matter of time until yli get hacked
[18:07] <biffbaxter> Kali is good for learning security...Its Debian now, not Ubuntu so there are slight differences. Do not suggest using it as a daily desktop. (some do, but I do not - I use Kali for my pentesting work only) but easy to install and use and then watch vids and learn...be careful to not break laws
[18:07] <MonkeyDust> noorideenae  sounds exciting, keep us informed
[18:07] <haldpoop> If I had root access, is there a file I can delete to remove the root password or a file I can delete that would allow me to access any folder in apache or something similar?
[18:07] <Jordan_U> noorideenae: This channel only supports Ubuntu. I would not recommend a distribution where you run as root by default though.
[18:08] <biffbaxter> You don't have to run Kali as root...I do not and just elevate as needed. Simple to config. But again I do not use as a daily desktop, its a tool
[18:08] <nacc> haldpoop: as the root user you can already access any folder in apache
[18:09] <SwedeMike> haldpoop: if you remove /etc/shadow you remove all passwords for all accounts.
[18:09] <noorideenae> Well to be honest I want to learn how to penetrate.. That's all
[18:09] <MonkeyDust> haldpoop  make sure you have a backup of the file
[18:09] <SwedeMike> haldpoop: but that's probably not soemthing you want to do
[18:09] <noorideenae> I will not use it as daily basis
[18:09] <noorideenae> Thank you very much guys
[18:10] <Southern_Gentlem> noorideenae, lol
[18:10] <biffbaxter> yep..good to learn...then go to securitytube, or pluralsite, etc...watch vids and play
[18:10] <Richard_Cavell> Jordan_U: Thanks for all your help.  I have to go and buy a USB stick before proceeding.  I'll bow out until tomorrow.
[18:10] <Jordan_U> haldpoop: What is your end goal?
[18:10] <Jordan_U> Richard_Cavell: You're welcome. Please keep me updated on how it goes :)
[18:10] <Richard_Cavell> ok thanxbye
[18:11] <noorideenae> Thanks for the help guys wish you the best of luck
[18:11] <noorideenae> Bye
[18:14] <haldpoop> The reason I wanted to know that is cause Iwanted to know the damage one can do if they had access to a remote application that ran on root, and they somehow found an exploit to delete files or create empty ones.
[18:14] <fanl> \nickserv
[18:16] <nacc> haldpoop: once a user has root access, they can delete everything on your system.
[18:16] <haldpoop> nacc, OK, let me rephrase this, I want to know what information they can get with only these.
[18:16] <nacc> haldpoop: anything that is on the system.
[18:17] <haldpoop> nacc, How? they can only delete or create an empty file.
[18:17] <nacc> haldpoop: or that goes through the system
[18:17] <nacc> haldpoop: what? root can do anything on the system
[18:17] <nacc> haldpoop: you're saying your magic vulnerability prevents full escalation?
[18:17] <Jordan_U> haldpoop: Best to confine such applications via apparmor or systemd. For easy additions to your systemd service files to do this see: http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/security.html
[18:18] <im-so> any elelmentary os users here?
[18:18] <haldpoop> nacc, The remot program that the attacker has access to is running on root, and all it can do is delete a file or a directory or create a directory.
[18:19] <haldpoop> nacc, Can they get any information out of it? can they gain access to root somehow?
[18:19] <Jordan_U> haldpoop: Keep in mind that just because none of use can think of a way to exploit the ability to create empty files does not mean that no way exists. There is very likely a way to exploit this in a way much more subtle than deleting /etc/shadow and allows arbitrary code execution.
[18:20] <nacc> haldpoop: sorry, so you're saying by normal execution of your program, they can only do that
[18:20] <Jordan_U> !elementary | im-so
[18:20] <nacc> haldpoop: that's not how to think about security
[18:20] <nacc> haldpoop: you have to think about what happens once your application is exploited, and since it's running as root, they are fully unconfined
[18:20] <anthony__> is there a program on ubuntu for searching names of people??????
[18:20] <haldpoop> nacc, I see.
[18:21] <nacc> anthony__: I don't understand what you mean? 'names of people'?
[18:21] <Jordan_U> anthony__: Searching for names from what list / database? For what purpose?
[18:21] <anthony__> yes
[18:21] <haldpoop> Jordan_U, evem with these limitations?
[18:21] <anthony__> find
[18:21] <im-so> Jordan_U: I'm in that chanel, but nobody answers, two days allready
[18:22] <Jordan_U> im-so: Unfortunately that doesn't make this channel appropriate. One consideration when choosing a distro is often how good their support community is. You can also try ##linux which is for any distribution.
 im trying to see who my neighbor is
[18:23] <nacc> anthony__: i don't even know where to start. Why not go ask them?
[18:23] <thebwt> p_d: was at lunch, should be just 'sudo apt-get remove virtualbox-5.1'
[18:23] <p_d> thebwt, hy
[18:23] <p_d> okay
 is there a way to contact you other then here? im new here and dont understand some of this
[18:25] <Jordan_U> haldpoop: Yes. Most vulnerabilities take a simple seemingly not very important ability and use it in a clever not-easy-to-forsee way to gain the ability to execute arbitrary code.
[18:25] <nacc> anthony__: please just keep it in the channel. What are you confused by?
[18:26] <Jordan_U> haldpoop: Did you see my link aboutg limiting the capabilities of a service via its systemd service file?
 just looking for help with ubuntu, im use to windows.
[18:26] <nacc> anthony__: just ask in the channel, then
 ok
[18:27] <haldpoop> Jordan_U, Yes.
[18:27] <p_d> thebwt, can you look at this for a moment- http://imgur.com/a/xubvX ..is my virtualbox installed?
[18:27] <Jordan_U> anthony__: If you'd like in person support, there is likely a Linux User Group in your area.
[18:28] <thebwt> looks like it, but I don't know much about troubleshooting virtualbox and vagrant (I'm a docker guy myself)
[18:28] <anthony__> not that bad im just learning this and need advice and lil help
[18:28] <p_d> thebwt, okay np ..please look at this too-http://paste.ubuntu.com/23559231/
[18:29] <thebwt> the packages think they're installed
[18:30] <p_d> okay now I think I should go and install vagrant ..what say>
[18:30] <p_d> ?*
[18:33] <Henster> man whay can i not add extra ip adress and get the routing to work ... so frustrated
[18:36] <Southern_Gentlem> how many are you using
[18:36] <Southern_Gentlem> public or private
[18:37] <ntdiop> test
[18:37] <Henster> 2 private
[18:38] <jeffreylevesque> is there /etc/environment for ubuntu
[18:38] <Henster> its adding thie routing thats the main issue /etc/networking

[18:39] <MonkeyDust> jeffreylevesque  the folder exists, but it's empty (here, that is)

[18:46] <cerealguy> hi
[18:46] <dark> i have an hdd that was encrypetd on a windows 10 machine but will not even show up on ubuntu any fix for that
[18:49] <jeffreylevesque> whats the equivalent command from centos, for `/etc/init.d/network restart`?
[18:49] <jeffreylevesque> on ubuntu 14.04
[18:49] <ignacio> sudo service networking restart?
[18:50] <ignacio> idk xD
[18:50] <Henster> i think this is ging to work
[18:50] <Henster> https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2253781
[18:50] <Henster> @dark do you want to retieve the data ?
[18:51] <BluesKaj> jeffreylevesque, try /etc/init.d/networking restart
[18:51] <thebwt> p_d: I don't know anything about vagrant, so you're on your own
[18:52] <cerealguy> u guise excited about a supported docker coming?
[18:53] <BluesKaj> nope
[18:53] <thebwt> cerealguy: 'supported' is a funny concept. It will be neat to see an easy kubernetes deployment, for sure. But docker-machine makes provisioning hosts easy.
[18:54] <fero> hi, i got a problem with my wifi, i got disconnect every some minutes, please help me
[18:55] <cerealguy> thebwt: so is it one of those things where u can run it all u want but pay for support if u need it?
[18:55] <cerealguy> i'm not clear on what an agreement like that looks like
[18:56] <BluesKaj> !u
[18:56] <cerealguy> o my bad
[18:56] <cerealguy> !o
[18:56] <BluesKaj> not bad cerealguy , just mistaken :-)
[18:57] <p_d> okay np thebwt
[18:57] <cerealguy> lulz
[18:57] <p_d> thanks for the help
[18:58] <thebwt> cerealguy: I am not honestly sure, that's less an ubuntu thing and more a Canonical thing. see https://www.ubuntu.com/support/plans-and-pricing
[18:58] <cerealguy> cool
[19:03] <SebthreeBQM10HD> hi
[19:06] <fero_> hi, i got a problem with my wifi, i got disconnect every some minutes, please help me
[19:07] <awwww> fero_ : which vendor ?
[19:08] <fero_> awwww, ubuntu 14.04
[19:09] <pavlos> chipset? you can get it from lsusb
[19:09] <SebthreeBQM10HD> fero_, why not upgrae to 16.04 ?
[19:09] <Henster> man ..ggg
[19:11] <fero_> SebthreeBQM10HD,  i have done that but because i am new linux user it was hard for me to find solutions
[19:12] <nacc> fero_: so you are on 16.04 not 14.04?
[19:12] <fero_> and a friend of me suggess me to turn to 14.04
[19:12] <SebthreeBQM10HD> fero_, which wireless hardware ?
[19:12] <nacc> fero_: also, please respond to pavlos' question
[19:13] <maxtim> Hello, I posted a question here a couple days ago about maximizing rhythmbox when you re-open it. You can find the full question here: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2344686
[19:13] <maxtim> as of yet, I still haven't found a solution for this problem. Any help would be lovely
[19:13] <SebthreeBQM10HD> fero_,  wireless support between 14.04 and 16.04 probably hasn't changed that much in general
[19:14] <fero_> pavlos, i am new here
[19:14] <SebthreeBQM10HD> or even with 16.10 in there as wel
[19:14] <fero_> SebthreeBQM10HD, wait a min i am trying to figure out how to find it
[19:15] <SebthreeBQM10HD> fero_, you may have some wireless hardware that has issues with Ubuntu,   might work with another distro that does wireless support dienretly though,  but I am not  saying go use anoher distro, I am jus saying.  also betwen recent ubuntu versins that are in support it will probably work the same really or prety much
[19:15] <SebthreeBQM10HD> fero_,  try lspci in th terminal
[19:15] <SebthreeBQM10HD> anything about wireless there if so what
[19:16] <fero__> nacc, i am on 14.04
[19:16] <SebthreeBQM10HD> did you get my last two messages
[19:16] <SebthreeBQM10HD> looks like you got disconnected
[19:16] <fero__> pavlos, i got 2 wifi one internal an one external
[19:16] <fero__> SebthreeBQM10HD,  no
[19:17] <SebthreeBQM10HD> I pu that bewe n versions of ubuntu ti would probably work the sme or pretyt much
[19:17] <pavlos> fero__, it would help to know the chipsets for those wifi
[19:17] <fero__> SebthreeBQM10HD, i got every some minutes, i an new linux user
[19:17] <SebthreeBQM10HD> also that in another actsual distro it migh work better, but then I said I wasn'  saying go try another distro
[19:17] <SebthreeBQM10HD> I also said to run lspci in the terminal
[19:17] <SebthreeBQM10HD> that may list the wireless hardware
[19:17] <pavlos> fero__, which gives you issues, the internal or the external?
[19:17] <SebthreeBQM10HD> as well as yur other hadware compnents
[19:17] <SebthreeBQM10HD> pavlos, he loses  wirles every few minutes or so,
[19:18] <cerealguy> imagining this conversation happening in a huge rainstorm
[19:18] <fero__> 04:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8723BE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter internal
[19:18] <fero__> but i buy a wifi adapter that is stronger
[19:18] <fero__> wait a sec
[19:19] <SebthreeBQM10HD> pavlos, seems had the same issue with 16.04 and 14.04

[19:19] <fero__>  <- i wanna use this one
[19:20] <fero__> now i am connected with ralink because the other has not good signal

[19:22] <Datz> Hi, I'm having an issue, where I can access apache2 from www, but not from within the local network.
[19:22] <MonkeyDust> Henster  if you don't get an answer here, try in ##networking (double #)
[19:23] <Henster> thanks buddy
[19:24] <fero__> :/
[19:24] <pavlos> fero__, so the RT5370 is an external usb stick that has good signal but disconnects often ...
[19:25] <fero__> pavlos,  yes .. but when i got disconnect i lose the signal of each wifi
[19:26] <Henster> @datz you need to change the ownershio of the file sud chown username: username -R /var/www
[19:26] <Henster> *sudo
[19:27] <fero__> sorry i got disconnect again
[19:27] <Henster> if your using wordpress you need to give the system access to upload files  : sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/wordpress2/wp-content/uploads
[19:28] <Datz> I'll check, but I think www-data already has access
[19:28] <Datz> Like I said, the site is working on the internet
[19:28] <Datz> I can access it from anywhere but locally
[19:29] <Datz> but I'll take a look
[19:29] <Henster> do you have Viraul hosts ?
[19:30] <Datz> no
[19:30] <Henster> i have the same issue as well .. lol
[19:30] <Datz> Oh, interesting.
[19:30] <Henster> strange thing i can access my ownclloud
[19:30] <Henster> xxx.com/owncloud
[19:34] <fero_> i miss somthing?
[19:35] <Datz> Yeah, I've changed ownership to www-data, yet still having trouble
[19:35] <Datz> Don't think that'll make a difference, because it is still serving up the files.
[19:36] <Datz> Has to be with the configuration
[19:36] <Datz> of apache2, or DNS or something?
[19:38] <fero__> :(
[19:39] <pavlos> fero__, you may have to blacklist the internal card, I'm looking for links
[19:39] <fero__> pavlos,  ok thank you
[19:43] <fero__> should i try this -> http://askubuntu.com/questions/513377/unstable-wireless-ubuntu-14-04

[20:02] <Buntunewbie> Ok, I will try the ppa-purge approach again.
[20:03] <pavlos> feros, the command I typed will run lsmod and pipe the output to nc which should provide you a url like http://termbin.com/somethingSomething
[20:04] <pavlos> feros, lsmod is to list what modules are loaded

[20:26] <EriC^^> BlackDex: yeah, if you don't have a need for any, run sudo apt-get purge <package> then reinstall it, all the config files will be gone
[20:27] <BlackDex> thats my problem :p
[20:27] <BlackDex> hehe

[20:30] <EriC^^> BlackDex: no problem
[20:30] <chrisyyyy> ioria, truew
[20:30] <ioria> chrisyyyy,   what desktop are you using ?
[20:31] <chrisyyyy> ioria, gdm3
[20:32] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  grep cdrom  /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:32] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  you can paste here
[20:33] <chrisyyyy> ioria, sure? :D
[20:33] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  yup
[20:33] <chrisyyyy> ioria, saw i'm wrong here :D
[20:33] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  it's ok, paste it, it's just one line
[20:33] <chrisyyyy> ioria, #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.5.0 _Jessie_ - Official i386 NETINST Binary-1 20160604-14:07]/ jessie main
[20:34] <ioria> chrisyyyy,   you're Debian, not ubuntu, mate
[20:34] <chrisyyyy> ioria, said it one sentence before
[20:34] <ioria> chrisyyyy,   yep, sy
[20:35] <ioria> chrisyyyy,   so, the route is first your logs (/var/log/),  ten your video drivers ...
[20:36] <ioria> *then
[20:36] <ice9> when i launch gnome-terminal the first time after login, the desktop crash and the background turns to black color, where can be the issue?
[20:36] <ioria> chrisyyyy,   but i'm not good at Debian, #debian it's the right place
[20:37] <chrisyyyy> ioria, trying to find smth useful in syslog.gz
[20:37] <Bashing-om> ice9: Graphic's driver ?? pastebin ' sudo lshw -C display ' see the status of the driver .
[20:38] <Buntunewbie> Having used ppa-purge, a folder still remians in usr/share from a PPA I installed.  How do I remove it, and how do I remove ppa-purge?
[20:38] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  ok..... check if you have root owned files in your home folder , or some external sources added to the system (sources.list)
[20:39] <ice9> Bashing-om, https://gist.github.com/anonymous/bd042501d498ea816e4573dbfd795668
[20:39] <chrisyyyy> ioria, whats the command for "show me files with their rights"?
[20:39] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  ls -l
[20:39] <xangua> 2:01 PM <xangua> Buntunewbie: the folder? What folder? What repository? Did you install anything from it?
[20:40] <EriC^^> Buntunewbie: type dpkg -S "/usr/share/...path/to/file"
[20:40] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  the freeze sometimes it's also an hardware issue about ram
[20:41] <Bashing-om> OverCoder: Hummmm .. hybrid graphics . Got a consistent config file ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log ' : To your pastebin site .
[20:42] <chrisyyyy> ioria, mhm.. thats annoying.. because theres a "magicmirror" script running on it, dont want to restart it everyday when im in front of the mirror :D
[20:42] <Buntunewbie> eric^^: Thanks, but the folder is still there.  I tried "dpkg -S /usr/share/indicator-keylock"
[20:43] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  you can try another DE (xfce4, or lxde) and see if the issue persists
[20:43] <EriC^^> Buntunewbie: did it say which package owns the file?
[20:43] <ice9> Bashing-om, any something useful in that output?
[20:43] <pavlos> fero, try sudo modprobe -r ideapad_laptop  (seems this module when loaded prevents wifi from starting
[20:43] <chrisyyyy> ioria, Nov 27 07:11:27 Trauminsel gnome-session[818]: (gnome-settings-daemon:974): GLib-CRITICAL **: Source ID 1198 was not found when attempting to remove it
[20:43] <Buntunewbie> eric^^:  I am sorry, I do not know what you mean.
[20:43] <chrisyyyy> ioria, could that be something? the time should be the same as shown on the desktop
[20:44] <EriC^^> Buntunewbie: what did it output when you typed the command?
[20:44] <Bashing-om> ice9: Sorry , bad on my part ^ "  Hummmm .. hybrid graphics . Got a consistent config file ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log ' : To your pastebin site ." should have been directed to you .
[20:44] <fero> pavlos, nothing happen
[20:44] <Buntunewbie> eric^^:  "indicator-keylock: /usr/share/indicator-keylock"
[20:45] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  yep, it'a a bug of gnome-control-center
[20:45] <EriC^^> Buntunewbie: ok, if you don't need the package type sudo apt-get purge indicator-keylock
[20:45] <pavlos> fero, if you type lsmod | grep idea, nothing should list (the module was removed)
[20:45] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1264368 chrisyyyy
[20:46] <Buntunewbie> eric^^:  Wow, thank you!  Worked a treat, nice one.  How do I now remove ppa-purge?
[20:47] <fero> pavlos, when i installed the ubuntu i had to do somthing because my internal wifi had a similar problem
[20:47] <chrisyyyy> ioria, ok so i would test lxde since it is used on other machines with this script, maybe that should help. What do i have to do to install it properly and use it on startup?
[20:47] <EriC^^> Buntunewbie: sudo apt-get purge ppa-purge
[20:48] <pavlos> fero, I dont have a similar laptop to test, I just read various pages to see if something would help
[20:48] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  on ubuntu you just install lubuntu-desktop or lxde (on Debian i don't know) , then from gdm you select it as session
[20:48] <pavlos> fero, I think there is a conflict, both wifi drivers (modules) are loaded
[20:49] <chrisyyyy> ioria, mhm.. i think i have to read about lxde, cause i want to autologin and autostart the script
[20:49] <pavlos> fero, It should work with just the internal RTL
[20:49] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  autologin is troublesome
[20:49] <chrisyyyy> ioria, meh
[20:49] <pavlos> fero, If you need to use the external only (RT5370), you should disable the internal wifi on BIOS
[20:50] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  on deb,  apt-get install lxde
[20:50] <Buntunewbie> eric^^: Thank you so much for your time and your help.  You are a credit to open source, keep up the great work.
[20:50] <chrisyyyy> ioria, should i remove gnome?
[20:50] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  nope
[20:51] <chrisyyyy> ioria, but i have to change something so that lxde will boot on startup
[20:51] <Bashing-om> ice9: Did I loose ya ? Does the file exist ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log ' ?
[20:51] <EriC^^> Buntunewbie: no problem
[20:52] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  autologin you mean ?
[20:52] <fero> pavlos, negative... i use the external only in the dormitory because the Access point is far away of my room but when i travel i use the internal
[20:52] <chrisyyyy> ioria, the graphic environment it boots on startup is gnome
[20:52] <chrisyyyy> ioria, how to change it to lxde?
[20:52] <fero> i will try to  connect with internal and unplug the external
[20:53] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  oh, yes you need to remove the autologin you set for gnome, and enwble it for lxde
[20:53] <ioria> *enable
[20:53] <ice9> Bashing-om, yeah but there is no any error at all
[20:53] <fero> pavlos, when i buy the external wifi adaptor i don't installed any drivers... its possible that cause the problem?
[20:53] <chrisyyyy> ioria, nothing else? just change the autologin and it will boot on lxde with the user?
[20:54] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  removing the autologin, will give you the choice of DE, then you enable it for the new DE (lxde)
[20:54] <pavlos> fero, well, upon boot, if the drivers are in the kernel, it will load the modules. If not, you'd have to install the RT driver
[20:54] <phako> I seem to have trouble with systemd-resolved, networkmanager and dnsmasq
[20:54] <chrisyyyy> ioria, ah get it
[20:55] <phako> when using host/nslookup, i can perfetcly resolve a host name, when using ping, it fails
[20:55] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  so, you'll see again the gdm screen for login
[20:56] <fero> pavlos, also when i install ubuntu the internal wifi adaptor had a problem with power managment
[20:56] <Bashing-om> ice9: Then next is to see what ' /etc/X11/xorg.conf  ' has set for the display .
[20:56] <chrisyyyy> ioria, ok installed lxde now, i will give it a try tomorrow when im home. i can take a better look on it than
[20:56] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  ok, good luck
[20:56] <chrisyyyy> ioria, thanks for ur help mate
[20:56] <Kali_Yuga> hello everybody
[20:56] <ice9> Bashing-om, but the DE is working fine even i can run 3d game
[20:56] <ioria> chrisyyyy,  you're welcome
[20:58] <pavlos> fero, the rtl8723be is loaded from the pastebin you provided
[20:58] <fero> pavlos, this is the internal
[20:58] <Bashing-om> ice9: Sorry, now I am the one lost "  the desktop crash and the background turns to black color " would indicate a loss of graphics to me .
[20:59] <pavlos> fero, correct ... and the RT5370 is the external
[20:59] <ice9> Bashing-om, i'm sorry for the confusing, ONLY the background turn to black losing the background wall paper with a screen flicker; but the DE is still working, X doesn't crash
[21:00] <pavlos> fero, and the RT5370 is handled via the rt2800usb module
[21:01] <fero_> pavlos, maybe that will help you
[21:01] <fero_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23559803/
[21:01] <Bashing-om> ice9: Well , now that is a new one on me ,. I have no idea of what the causation might be . I will bow to others' advise in this matter .

[21:05] <pavlos> fero, ok
[21:15] <guzzlefry> How can i restart the wifi network interface?
[21:15] <guzzlefry> The drivers seem to be crashing. :/
[21:16] <Bashing-om> guzzlefry: What release are you in ? makes a difference .
[21:16] <guzzlefry> Xubuntu 16.04
[21:16] <guzzlefry> Just started having issues, so I'm guessing an update broke things.
[21:18] <ice9> which modules to probe if the touchpad stopped working?
[21:25] <Bashing-om> guzzlefry: I do not know much about WIFI on 16.04 .. but might see what ' systemctl enable NetworkManager.service ; systemctl start NetworkManager.service ' does .
[21:27] <elGALLO> Hi, I have Ubuntu 16.0.1 Server with ubuntu-desktop installed. I made a RAID 0 of three 4TB drives = 12TB mounted to ~/data. SickRage  can't seem to write to RAID 0 mount/volume
[21:31] <bunjee> what's the steps to take to transfer files from a hdd to the computer with UBUNTU?
[21:32] <MonkeyDust> bunjee  that's a very general question, be more specific
[21:32] <Bashing-om> bunjee: What is th path ?? from one ubuntu machine to another 'buntu machine on the same router ? or what ?
[21:33] <bunjee> trying to transfer MP3's or pictures from a hdd to my ubuntu os.
[21:33] <MonkeyDust> bunjee  are you in ubuntu now? you can use cp (copy) or ssh
[21:34] <MonkeyDust> rsync, rather
[21:35] <bunjee> monkeydust - yes.....newby... don't know what cp or ssh is........
[21:36] <thebwt> what kind of hdd?
[21:36] <bunjee> seagate
[21:36] <thebwt> over a sata cable to the motherboard?
[21:37] <thebwt> does that other hdd have windows on it?
[21:39] <bunjee> seagate hdd just has mp3's and want tio transfer them on to Ubuntu hdd
[21:39] <thebwt> how is that hdd formatted
[21:40] <bunjee> have no idea
[21:40] <MonkeyDust> bunjee  how is that hdd connected to the ubuntu machine?
[21:40] <bunjee> just with the usb
[21:40] <thebwt> that's not an hdd
[21:40] <thebwt> that's a flash drive
[21:41] <thebwt> it doesn't automatically come up when you plug it into the desktop?
[21:41] <elGALLO> or an extrnal bay
[21:41] <thebwt> elGALLO: I feel like.. in context thats unlikely
[21:41] <\9> bunjee: is it an external hard drive?
[21:42] <bunjee> ok........I get it...the hdd has a connection to the ubuntu machine that is usb
[21:42] <bunjee> \9.....yes
[21:43] <MonkeyDust> bunjee  in ubuntu open a terminal and type this : lsblk -f ... then paste the outcome here : http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and paste the link in the channel
[21:43] <\9> thebwt: there, quit the assumptions
[21:43] <thebwt> sure...

[21:44] <\9> must be quite the old computer if it has a floppy drive...
[21:45] <teward> \9: or the bit is set in BIOS regardless of a floppy drive existing or not (happened to me a few too many times)
[21:45] <thebwt> true nuff
[21:45] <\9> bunjee: you may talk again
[21:45] <bunjee> monkeydust - okay - it's there now.....
[21:46] <bunjee> \9 - thank you...sorry....
[21:46] <\9> bunjee: it's alright, next time please use a pastebin service
[21:46] <\9> such as  http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[21:48] <thebwt> bunjee: It's there meaning you got it to open, or it's there you pasted the output into ubuntu pastebin
[21:50] <bunjee> I'm in Dolphin now - I just want to drag some mp3's to the deaktop - when I disconnect the hdd - the mp3's do not play...
[21:50] <MonkeyDust> bunjee  Dolphin, so it's KDE ?
[21:51] <bunjee> monkeydust - yes
[21:51] <Jordan_U> bunjee: What happens when you try to play the mp3 files after dragging them to the desktop? Do the mp3 files play if you open them directly from the external drive?
[21:51] <MonkeyDust> bunjee  by dragging the files, it's possible you just symlink them, so if you disconnect the drive, there's nothing it's linked to
[21:51] <\9> perhaps you created links instead of copies
[21:52] <bunjee> jordan_u - links sounds like what's going on
[21:53] <MonkeyDust> bunjee  hit ctrl-a to select all files, then right click and copy, then paste them in ubuntu
[21:53] <Jordan_U> bunjee: MonkeyDust: Possible, but I doubt that making symlinks is the default behavior for Dolphin when dragging and dropping files.
[21:54] <Pinkamena_D> Trying to install a latex package for all users, I cannot. I get (running on debian, switching to user mode!) while running tlmgr.
[21:54] <bunjee> monkeydust - I will paste what the error reads........it's there now
[21:54] <Pinkamena_D> how can I get a version of tlmgr or something imilar which does not always run in user mode?
[21:54] <MonkeyDust> bunjee  use pastebin to paste the outcome here
[21:55] <Jordan_U> Pinkamena_D: Is the latex package you're trying to install available as a packge in the repositories? If so, I would recommend just installing it via apt.
[21:55] <bunjee> monkeydust - just clciked on paste
[21:55] <Pinkamena_D> Jordan_U: no, I used apt-file and it is not available
[21:56] <Jordan_U> bunjee: You need to share the URL of the paste in this channel for us to be able to access it.
[21:56] <bunjee> jordan_u  - ok....Unable to run the command specified. The file or folder /media/bunjee/Seagate Backup Plus Drive/Cream/Discography/1966 - Fresh Cream [DCC 24k Gold (GZS 1022)] @320/11 - Spoonful (Willie Dixon).mp3 does not exist.
[21:56] <MonkeyDust> bunjee  paste the new url here
[21:57] <Pinkamena_D> Jordan_U: it is called 'tracklang', but I would rather fix this generally. Also I already asked over at the latex channel but they directted me here.

[22:21] <kw1234> after upgrade of packages system cannot boot anymore... any ideas on how to troubleshoot?
[22:23] <thebwt> kw1234: tried diffrent kernels?
[22:23] <Rob235> hey
[22:23] <kw1234> thebwt boot device not recognized :(
[22:24] <thebwt> oh boy, I'm not sure on that
[22:24] <Rob235> I'm having some smb issues.  I cant connect to any network shares on my newly installed ubuntu partition
[22:24] <kw1234> and kernel was in the list pf updates...
[22:24] <Rob235> keeps asking for password
[22:24] <Rob235> but I can connect on other systems
[22:25] <Bashing-om> kw1234: Can you boot as far as the login screen ? And at the login screen can you activate a console interface ( ctl+alt+F1) ?
[22:26] <kw1234> Bashing-om no, that is the thing. looks like grub is messed up.
[22:27] <kw1234> so, ssd is not recognized as boot device anymore
[22:31] <Bashing-om> kw1234: Well, next up then as a step back, is if bios hands off to grub . Can you boot to the grub menu ? Maybe from there we can boot the system and fix grub ( if that is the problem) .
[22:33] <kw1234> Bashing-om: nope. just see Insert Boot Media... press any key
[22:34] <taliptako> hey i'm moving to ubuntu
[22:34] <taliptako> does ubuntu have media installer ?
[22:35] <taliptako> netinstall
[22:35] <thebwt> like http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/netboot/ ?
[22:35] <lil> what up ladies, lmao
[22:36] <Bashing-om> kw1234: Ouch, now that is unreal for any upgrade to have such a drastic effect . But, we can "look" , Biit up a liveUSB(DVD) and pastebin ' sudo parted -l ' so we know what we are working with and consider re-installing grub .
[22:36] <Bashing-om> biit/boot**

[22:55] <kw1234_> And, yes EFI, although like 5yrs old
[22:56] <hipitihop> On 16.04 when I initiate a gracefull shutdown e.g. sudo reboot or update manager prompts to, do lxd/docker and vagrant vm's shutdown gracefully too or do I need my own init scripts or some such

[23:02] <Bashing-om> kw1234_: Well . sorry for the delay ,, is there any return ' /sys/firmware/efi/ ' ? As I want to determine if UEFI is also a factor .
[23:03] <Bashing-om> kw1234_: Make that command ' ls -al /sys/firmware/efi/ ' . .
[23:04] <kw1234_> Bashing-om: np, meanwhile installed efibootmgr http://paste.ubuntu.com/23560232/

[23:21] <amikrop> Hi, I used this guide http://www.binarytides.com/ubuntu-fix-nvidia-graphics/ and instead of splash image I see nothing (just the purple-ish background) during boot. This method used to work for me in previous Ubuntu versions though.
[23:22] <guille1> I have more information. I have 2 sites on the same server. One loads fine, so it isn't a router issue. This happened out of the blue, no changes were made to the site.
[23:23] <reisio> guille1: perhaps a 'localhost' vs '127.0.0.1' issue, or the like
[23:23] <reisio> I'd talk to #nginx
[23:27] <guille1> reisio: what do you mean a bjy.0.0.b issue?
[23:28] <reisio> guille1: I mean talk to #nginx
[23:35] <yorwos> is there any command to give through terminal so that recordmydesktop will encode the rest of my video ? i dont think i can record the same thing again , lots of players in a game were involved
[23:35] <reisio> yorwos: what format is it now? (ffmpeg -i file)
[23:35] <Bashing-om> kw1234_: Back for the naunce . I do not know what to make of the apt log .. but sure makes me want to check the file system .
[23:36] <reisio> if you just have a half-encoded output, you probably want to find the original file, probably in /tmp/, but possibly in the working dir
[23:37] <yorwos>  Stream #0:1: Video: theora, yuv420p, 1920x1072 [SAR 1:1 DAR 120:67], 15 fps, 15 tbr, 15 tbn, 15 tbc
[23:38] <reisio> yorwos: so: ffmpeg -i input.file -c:v libx264 -c:a libfdk_aac output.mp4
[23:38] <kw1234_> Bashing-om: the only things I see that are out of ordinary... All packages were updated OK. There were no similar warnings in previous kernel updates. Searching through interwebs resulted in few entries saying that these warnings are not harmful.
[23:38] <reisio> yorwos: you might also want to make it lower res, too
[23:39] <reisio> yorwos: for which, IIRC, you can add in '-vf scale=1280:-1'
[23:39] <WyZeGuY> Root is so unforgiving.
[23:39] <reisio> depends on who your audience is
[23:40] <yorwos> this .ogv file is missing my last minutes of the video, i can re-encode it to whatever but my problem is the rest of the missing video
[23:40] <reisio> some people would rather have a buffered 1080 video than un unbuffered 720 <shrug>
[23:40] <reisio> yorwos: you need to find the original source file, if it exists
[23:40] <reisio> yorwos: check /tmp/ or the dir the ogv was saved in
[23:40] <yorwos> undelete source in /tmp somehow then ?
[23:41] <reisio> it wouldn't have been deleted unless you did a reboot, at least
[23:41] <reisio> and not always in that case
[23:41] <yorwos> no i havent reboot
[23:41] <amikrop> This http://askubuntu.com/questions/362722/how-to-fix-plymouth-splash-screen-in-all-ubuntu-releases/ used to work for me in previous Ubuntu versions, but not in 16.04 (instead of viewing the splash image I just see the empty purple background). Any help, please?
[23:41] <WyZeGuY> I was setting up a self-hosting note app, and in the folder I was at, I ran "mv /* /var/www/html/serve" ... yea, it started moving the entire drive to that folder. I noticed it when my desktop icons started disappearing, and was like awwwww shit
[23:42] <bazhang> no cursing here please WyZeGuY
[23:42] <WyZeGuY> bazhang, did I curse?
[23:42] <bazhang> yes
[23:43] <WyZeGuY> bazhang, I'm rereading it, and I don't see any cursing
[23:43] <bazhang> 'awwww -->that word<----'
[23:44] <WyZeGuY> bazhang, what, "shit"? that's not a curse word anymore
[23:44] <yorwos> i can't find anything in /tmp or /home/Desktop either pointing to the raw files of recordmydesktop
[23:44] <Bashing-om> kw1234_: Presently I am just not sure bow how best to proceed . Not able to boot to the hrub boot menu bothers me greatly and then there is " checksum areas are greater than image size. Invalid section table? " . Can not see how running a file system check from the liveUSB would not be a good thing to do . Are we looking at sda2 as 'root' and sda4 as /home ?
[23:44] <reisio> yorwos: find /tmp -type f -exec file {} \; | grep -i video
[23:45] <bazhang> WyZeGuY, lets just not repeat it here, thanks
[23:45] <reisio> yorwos: it might also be in ~/ (/home/youruser)
[23:45] <WyZeGuY> let's not repeat it? it it it it it lol i repeated it
[23:46] <kw1234_> Bashing-om: exactly, sda2 is root sda4 is home
[23:46] <WyZeGuY> "fuck" and "cunt" are still considered curse words, so i won't say those. deal?
[23:47] <reisio> yorwos: it's also possible it was all stored in memory, in which case it's gone; that'd be odd, though
[23:47] <Bashing-om> kw1234_: Let's take a gentle poke and see what fsck thinks ' sudo fsck /dev/sda2 ' . Depending on what results we may want to get the more agressive .
[23:48] <reisio> yorwos: http://www.chiptoxic.net/?q=node/18
[23:49] <kw1234_> Bashing-om: clean
[23:52] <guille1> hi! I have a problem with nginx on ubuntu. A website won't load from outside my LAN. This happened 2 days ago with no prior change to the site. I can load it from inside my LAN and I can also access another website hosted on the same server from anywhere. Can someone help me please troubleshoot this problem?
[23:52] <yorwos> yea, the app says it saves the files in /tmp , but there is no directory in the format of rMD-session-*****
[23:52] <yorwos> i still havent closed the app, its still running
[23:53] <Bashing-om> kw1234_: Humm .. I guess that is a good thing ! what results now rebooting and setting in the UEFI firmware to boot " Boot0000 ' >> Hard DriveBBS(HD,,0x0) ??
[23:53] <reisio> guille1: #ubuntu-server
[23:54] <guille1> join #ubuntu-server
[23:56] <yorwos> do you think would work ?   locate rMD-session-* | grep /rMD-session-*$
[23:57] <yorwos> no results
[23:58]  * kw1234_ hopes to be back
[23:58] <kw1234_> Bashing-om: wish me luck ;)
[23:59] <Bashing-om> kw1234_: Well, no luck ..hard work =  just hoping we do not next re-install grub ,, as I have little familiariry with UEFI systems .
