| Android169 | My IRC client doesn't recognize - as a valid character for joining channels | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| Android169 | So ... What do i do | 00:09 |
| blackflow | get a better client | 00:09 |
| Android169 | I don't want to use a different one I guess i will | 00:09 |
| Android169 | It's the number one client | 00:09 |

| wookie_ | can someone help me figure out how to install the dependencies for gcc 5? I get a dependency error when i type " sudo apt-get install gcc-5 " | 00:12 |
| blackflow | wookie_: what dependency error, which ubuntu? | 00:13 |
| wookie_ | blackflow, Ubuntu 14.04 https://gist.github.com/WikiWookie/c520f92da4a11bee474cd3dee1264a47 | 00:14 |
| GALL0 | made some zfs pools in freenas, couldn't get plugins etc going. can any suggest how to mount/edit fstab so I still use these pools? https://puu.sh/t12yG/7e14b67859.png | 00:15 |
| blackflow | wookie_: is that from a PPA? | 00:16 |
| wookie_ | blackflow, Yes | 00:16 |
| wookie_ | blackflow, sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test | 00:17 |
| blackflow | wookie_: I don't think PPAs are supported here | 00:17 |
| wookie_ | So is there any way I can install gcc5? I might have found a way to get my drivers for my wireless usb adapter to work if I can isntall gcc5 | 00:18 |
| blackflow | GALL0: zfs doesn't use fstab normally, except in legacy mode. what plugins? | 00:18 |
| GALL0 | plugins with freenas, just wanted plex, deluge, sickrage, couchpotato. plex wouldnt install. so gave up on freenas, but I like how easy it was to "create" RAID 0 | 00:19 |
| blackflow | GALL0: so ask in #freenas, this is Ubuntu linux support | 00:20 |
| GALL0 | blackflow any other way to gt the zfs _member to mount? | 00:20 |
| GALL0 | I'm dumping freenas and now have Ubuntu | 00:20 |
| blackflow | GALL0: `zfs mount` | 00:20 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | hi | 00:20 |
| GALL0 | I want to us the zfs pools | 00:21 |
| blackflow | GALL0: in fact, you must first import a pool and the datasets will automount. so you -R or -N to be safe | 00:21 |
| GALL0 | thanks | 00:21 |
| blackflow | GALL0: take a look at OpenMediaVault, but that's debian based | 00:22 |
| GALL0 | blackflow came back to ubuntu, really want to use/keep ZFS. only wanted to try freenas for its "ease" of use. but being that it runs off a flash drive write speeds are slow even with a USB 3.0 flash drive | 00:24 |
| blackflow | GALL0: okay, so it's zfs pools should be importable to Ubuntu. Not the "plugins" which are FreeNAS plugins | 00:25 |
| GALL0 | oh no, don't care about the plugins, i know how to `sudo apt install <package>` | 00:25 |
| GALL0 | just wanted the ZFS filesystem. though I do like docker, even though its a pain to install on 16.04 | 00:26 |
| blackflow | GALL0: okay good, and you'll need "zfsutils-linux" installed, it'll take a while as it has to build the DKMS | 00:26 |
| GALL0 | no worries, not in a real rush. thanks for the help | 00:27 |

| ubuntu795 | hello #Ubuntu, I'm having a booting issue. I can see stuff on my storage/windows hard drive, but I can't boot windows. How do I repair it? | 00:58 |
| Ben64 | you can boot ubuntu? | 00:58 |
| ubuntu795 | I don't have Ubuntu installed now, and my HDD isn't showing up as EUFI | 00:59 |
| Ben64 | then why are you here? | 00:59 |
| ubuntu795 | I want to install Ubuntu, but took it off of my windows drive to install it on SSD | 00:59 |
| rommel | did you have ubuntu and windows installed together and working | 01:00 |
| Ben64 | ok... then install ubuntu? | 01:00 |
| ubuntu795 | I had Ubuntu on the drive first, but decided to swap drives. | 01:00 |
| rommel | so what wa booting windows grub2? | 01:01 |
| ubuntu795 | So I got my windows onto that drive now, but it's not reading as UEFI and keeps sending me to grub recovery | 01:01 |
| Ben64 | if you want to install ubuntu, install ubuntu | 01:01 |
| Ben64 | if you want to get windows working, join ##windows | 01:01 |
| ubuntu795 | Great advice bruh, maybe some windows fans will be able to navigate my issue with getting kicked to grub rescue then? | 01:02 |
| ubuntu795 | Sounds about right? | 01:02 |
| Ben64 | you don't have ubuntu installed, it's not an ubuntu issue | 01:03 |
| ubuntu795 | That don't make any sense. My windows drive is getting rekt by Ubuntu's grub rescue and you are telling me it's windows fault that grub is rekt? | 01:04 |
| Ben64 | it's your fault actually | 01:04 |
| OerHeks | you deleted ubuntu, so fix it with your windows iso? | 01:05 |
| ubuntu795 | Maybe it is my fault for installing Ubuntu then | 01:05 |
| samthewildone | On Ubuntu 16.04 Mate and having a problem where the fonts don't render correctly. | 01:05 |
| rommel | does windows ven provide an iso anymore | 01:05 |
| Ben64 | rommel: yep | 01:05 |
| OerHeks | rommel, sure, free download nowadays | 01:05 |
| samthewildone | It's quite hard to explain... It's like a glitch. | 01:05 |
| ubuntu795 | I'm in Ubuntu now, looking at the drives partitions, I can see /dev/sda1 (my windows partition showing 465GB used, but not letting me boot into it) | 01:07 |
| ubuntu795 | how do I fix grub to at least let my HDD read as UEFI | 01:08 |
| ubuntu795 | install ubuntu beside it? | 01:09 |
| rommel | it may work | 01:09 |
| rommel | os probe in the installation may pick it up | 01:09 |
| uxfi | marry xmas | 01:10 |
| rommel | thanx and back at u | 01:10 |
| uxfi | thanks man | 01:10 |
| Kali_Yuga | ubuntu795: do you only want windows on your harddrive? | 01:11 |
| ubuntu795 | yes, I want windows on my HDD, and Ubuntu on my SSD for Blender | 01:12 |
| uxfi | Kali_Yuga Indian? | 01:12 |
| bazhang | !ot | uxfi | 01:12 |
| ubottu | uxfi: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 01:12 |
| uxfi | thanks bazhang | 01:13 |
| ubuntu795 | I wanted to maximize my blender performance by having it on an SSD in Ubuntu | 01:13 |
| Kali_Yuga | no not indian | 01:13 |
| ubuntu795 | I'm in grub rescue, stuck and bored | 01:15 |
| ubuntu795 | ls | 01:15 |
| ubuntu795 | lol | 01:15 |
| Ben64 | ubuntu795: so install ubuntu | 01:15 |
| ubuntu795 | will it let me back into my windows? | 01:16 |
| Ben64 | maybe | 01:16 |
| ubuntu795 | I'll try | 01:16 |
| wookie_ | How do I change my kernel from 3.16 low latency to 3.16 generic? | 01:19 |
| ubuntu795 | Ok, when I try to install, it pops up a box that asks me if I want to Force UEFI Installation? And warns me: If you wish to install in UEFI mode and don't care about keeping the ability to boot one of the existing systems, you have the option to force that here. If you wish to keep the option to boot an existing operating system, you should choose NOT to force UEFI installation here. | 01:21 |

| Kali_Yuga | ubuntu795: might this help? http://askubuntu.com/questions/274371/install-on-second-hard-drive-with-startup-boot-option seems a bit complicated cuz you have 2 mbr's and would be annoying to change in bios uefi boot option always | 01:23 |
| === emiserson is now known as emerson | ||
| Kali_Yuga | put both operation systems on the ssd would be my suggestion. and files on hdd as storage maybe | 01:24 |
| ubuntu795 | I am not going to install Ubuntu then. If I wipe out my windows, it's going to wipe out everything I didn't sync to my clouds yet. | 01:25 |
| blackflow | ubuntu795: and that'll be a nice lesson in taking and appreciating backups. :) | 01:27 |
| Peetz0r | merry christmas! https://nos.nl/data/image/2016/12/25/342280/original.jpg | 01:28 |
| blackflow | persnonally, tho', I'd advise you to get two drives and don't mess with os/grub multiboot. | 01:28 |
| ubuntu795 | I have two drives | 01:28 |
| blackflow | ubuntu795: one for ubuntu and another for windows? | 01:28 |
| Kali_Yuga | ubuntu795: both os'es would be running from the ssd. | 01:29 |
| ubuntu795 | One is an SSD, the other is a HDD, and I wanted to make my SSD Ubuntu, and my HDD Windows... but I can't boot into windows because it keeps sending me to grub rescue | 01:29 |
| Kali_Yuga | ubuntu795: you would have to constantly switch in Bios you're preffered boot device then | 01:31 |
| Kali_Yuga | i wouldn't recommend doing it like that really | 01:31 |
| ubuntu795 | I'm okay with that, it's set up to when I want to boot into windows, all I have to do is press F11 and select it from my bios | 01:32 |
| ubuntu795 | problem is, I can't boot my windows, cus it sends me to grub rescue instead | 01:33 |
| ubuntu795 | And there's no Ubuntu on that drive | 01:33 |
| Kali_Yuga | okay try | 01:33 |
| Kali_Yuga | EasyBCD | 01:34 |
| ubuntu795 | googling it now | 01:34 |
| Kali_Yuga | on a ubuntu live cd change the boot loader to windows | 01:34 |
| ubuntu795 | I have ubuntu live running now | 01:34 |
| Kali_Yuga | try changing the boot loader to windows then | 01:35 |
| ubuntu795 | I have 2 machines to set this up on, so I can run blender render farm and game on windows | 01:35 |
| ubuntu795 | Kali_Yuga: how do I change the boot loader from live USB? | 01:36 |
| Kali_Yuga | good question | 01:36 |
| myraft | hi all, recently upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04.01 and am getting kernel panic not syncing vfs unable to mount root | 01:37 |
| myraft | any help would be highly appreciated | 01:37 |
| Kali_Yuga | there is a bootable recovery cd from easy bcd never tried it though | 01:38 |
| tomreyn | myraft: did the upgrade go without error? | 01:38 |
| tomreyn | myraft: also, when does the kernel panic happen - early during boot, or later on? does it happen on every boot? | 01:39 |
| myraft | tomreyn, I did get some errrors, but not knowing continued | 01:39 |
| Kali_Yuga | ubuntu795: http://neosmart.net/EasyRE/ | 01:39 |
| Kali_Yuga | maybe | 01:39 |
| myraft | it happens on every boot | 01:39 |
| myraft | but I do get ubuntu choices and see other recovery modes | 01:39 |
| tomreyn | myraft: does a recovery / ermergency boot work? | 01:39 |
| Kali_Yuga | to change boot loader | 01:39 |
| ubuntu795 | so it's gonna cost me $20 to fix a problem that Ubuntu created? FML | 01:40 |
| myraft | I am in advanced options right now and see : linux 4.4.0.53-generic , linux 4.4.0.53-generic(upstart), linux 4.4.0.53-generic (recovery) and 3.13.0.105 | 01:40 |
| tomreyn | myraft: try the last one | 01:41 |
| tomreyn | myraft: actually not | 01:41 |
| myraft | I did that, takes me to command line | 01:41 |
| Kali_Yuga | ubuntu795: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreUbuntu/XP/Vista/7Bootloader | 01:41 |
| tomreyn | myraft: try this one: "linux 4.4.0.53-generic (recovery)" | 01:41 |
| myraft | tomreyn, trying now | 01:41 |
| Kali_Yuga | ubuntu795: Run Boot-Repair from a liveCD, click "Advanced options", tick "Restore MBR", click "Apply" | 01:42 |
| myraft | get end Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS : Unable to mount root fs | 01:42 |
| myraft | in about 1 sec | 01:42 |
| myraft | tomreyn, thanks for helping - totally lost | 01:43 |
| tomreyn | myraft: can you take a photo and upload it? | 01:43 |
| Kali_Yuga | ubuntu795: listen what i'm telling you | 01:43 |
| ubuntu795 | Kali_Yuga: I tried that, when I rebooted it still sent me to grub rescue... maybe it has something to do with windows being installed in compatability mode? | 01:44 |
| Kali_Yuga | complatibilty mode? | 01:45 |
| tomreyn | myraft: when this is done, go to the menu where you can select the kernel to boot again and press 'c' (as in "command line"). then type 'ls' and press enter, and tell me what it returned. | 01:45 |
| ubuntu795 | kk, got into windows recovery, gonna try the other suggestions | 01:46 |
| tomreyn | myraft: finally, do you have a ubuntu live or installer cd / usb stick you could boot from? | 01:46 |
| myraft | tomreyn, here is the pic : http://pasteboard.co/egN4NpcAb.jpg | 01:48 |
| ubuntu795 | i tried to recover windows, and it found it, but it says: Failed to save startup options | 01:48 |
| === ubuntu795 is now known as EiriksHDD | ||
| myraft | I don't remeber the version I tried the system upgrade , so I don't have a live CD / USB. | 01:49 |
| myraft | I believe it was 14.04 | 01:49 |
| EiriksHDD | lemme try winblows chat | 01:49 |
| tomreyn | myraft: do you have any other way to boot this system then? | 01:50 |
| Kali_Yuga | just change the mbr | 01:50 |
| myraft | no only ubuntu | 01:50 |
| tomreyn | myraft: you mean the ubuntu installation on the hard disk, right? | 01:50 |
| myraft | please note , if I pick the older version, I can get to command line | 01:50 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yes the installation is on hard-drive | 01:51 |
| tomreyn | myraft: kernel 3.13.0.105 gets you a command line? | 01:51 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yes it does | 01:51 |
| tomreyn | okay that's good, then boot into that, and see if you got networking there. you can run "ping -c3 8.8.8.8" and see what it returns | 01:52 |
| myraft | tomreyn, trying now | 01:52 |
| === j is now known as Guest80199 | ||
| tomreyn | if you have internet, it should say something like "3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2003ms". if you don't, it will say something like "3 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2003ms", or it will error out entirely and not print this line. | 01:54 |
| myraft | tomreyn, says network is not reachable | 01:54 |
| myraft | tomreyn, says network is unreachable | 01:54 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, maybe we don't actually need internet. what does this return: lsb_release -d | 01:56 |
| myraft | tomreyn, "Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS" | 01:56 |
| myraft | should I try to boot in older version than did , or is it a grub problem all around / | 01:57 |
| === Smn is now known as Guest31367 | ||
| tomreyn | myraft: i do not understand the question you just asked, can you rephrase it please? | 01:58 |
| Guest31367 | guys i want to make a bash script to check the checksum of a file by parts using head -c value file | md5sum, so I want to check by 50mbs | 01:58 |
| myraft | rather than choosing kernel 3.13.XXX should I try something earlier in the list ? | 01:59 |
| Guest31367 | how can I make so?afaik head takes from the first buy until it grabs all the bytes one specified | 01:59 |
| myraft | tomreyn, or nevermind my question, lead away - I am all ears and desperate :) | 02:00 |
| tomreyn | myraft: you could try the 'upstart' boot option but it is unlikely to work | 02:01 |
| tomreyn | also, what's the output of: lsblk -dno NAME | xargs echo | 02:01 |
| myraft | tomreyn, the command returns : "sda sr0". Also, I am not sure what is the 'upstart' boot option | 02:02 |
| tomreyn | myraft: "linux 4.4.0.53-generic(upstart)" in your kernel list. but i doubt it will work. | 02:02 |
| myraft | tomreyn, trying now | 02:03 |
| tomreyn | myraft: ok. so you have a single internal hard disk drive, is this correct? | 02:03 |
| tomreyn | + cdrom, but nothing else | 02:03 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yes | 02:03 |
| myraft | has usb drives | 02:04 |
| myraft | tomreyn, upstart gives same kernel panic | 02:04 |
| myraft | do I need to put 16.04.1 on usb and try booting from that ? | 02:05 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, as expected. those "uusb drives" are not currently connected to your computer, right? | 02:05 |
| myraft | yes | 02:05 |
| tomreyn | how would you put 16.04.1 on a usb stick and boot from it? | 02:05 |
| tomreyn | currently, you dont seem to have a way to download and write it anywhere? | 02:06 |
| myraft | tomreyn, from the machine I chatting on, get it here, put it on USB and then try that (will be PAINFUL) | 02:06 |
| tomreyn | painful how? | 02:06 |
| tomreyn | it's a good approach in this situation if you can do it on this second computer you have. | 02:07 |
| cfhowlett | !ping | 02:07 |
| ubottu | pong! | 02:07 |
| myraft | tomreyn, don't have much of choice. Unless there is a pointer | 02:07 |
| tomreyn | myraft: we can try to just install grub on your hard disk's MBR from the 3.11.xxx kernel. but this is error prone. | 02:08 |
| myraft | tomreyn, definitely worth it, since the plan I am talking about might land me back here. | 02:09 |
| myraft | tomreyn, so lead away | 02:09 |
| myraft | should I restart and get to command line ( please note - no internet ) | 02:09 |
| tomreyn | myraft: for the record: i assume, based on what i read so far, that the newer grub boot code was not properly installed during your upgrade. this would possibly explain why you can boot the old but not the new kernels. | 02:09 |
| myraft | tomreyn, your assumption is as good as I can guess | 02:10 |
| tomreyn | myraft: do i understand correctly that you would like tp try and upgrade grub from the existing system rather than prepare a bootable ubuntu usb key now? | 02:11 |
| tomreyn | just to confirm | 02:11 |
| myraft | yes | 02:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: then please boot into the 3.11.xxx kernel | 02:11 |
| myraft | so doing | 02:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: how does your internet access work there? do you have a wired ethernet connection or a wireless (radio) connection? | 02:12 |
| myraft | tomreyn, loading to older kernel - No internet | 02:12 |
| myraft | tomreyn, the ping said unreachable | 02:13 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i mean when this computer worked, how was it connected physically? | 02:13 |
| wookie_ | Can some help me figure out how to install a different kernel? | 02:13 |
| cfhowlett | !kernel | wookie_ | 02:13 |
| ubottu | wookie_: The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) | 02:13 |
| myraft | tomreyn, it was wired - sorry did not understand the question | 02:13 |
| myraft | tomreyn, the troubled machine is a desktop | 02:14 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, and your ip address was provided from the router, i suppose? | 02:14 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yes | 02:14 |
| tomreyn | myraft: alright, so we can try to get on the internet. but first, let's see which versio of grub you have there: dpkg -l grub* | grep ^i | 02:15 |
| tomreyn | myraft: this should show a list with several lines and columns, the third column should have version numbers. most of these should be 2.02-something, can you tell me the exact version of that? | 02:16 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, what if the kernel is already on my system? Here is the error. sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.16.0-30-generic | 02:17 |

| tomreyn | myraft: okay, please reboot and try the first kernel option | 02:24 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, what if using the --reinstall tag doesn't work? I just did sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.16.0-30-generic --reinstall and restarted the computer and it still have the same kernel I previously had | 02:26 |
| myraft | tomreyn, still getting kernel panic | 02:26 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, so the upgrade you did, it was from a ubuntu OS to a ubuntu PS, not some other OS which is an ubuntu derivative, right? | 02:27 |
| tomreyn | *OS, not PS | 02:27 |
| myraft | tomreyn, correct , upgraded from ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04.1 | 02:27 |
| cfhowlett | wookie_, why do you believe the kernel is not present when the system reports that it is? | 02:28 |
| myraft | not sure about 14.04 (might be 15.04) | 02:28 |
| tomreyn | myraft: 15.04 would not ahve allowed you to upgrade to 16.04 in one step. | 02:28 |
| myraft | tomreyn, goes to show my noobi-ness | 02:28 |
| myraft | tomreyn, so any ideas boss ? | 02:29 |
| tomreyn | myraft: don't worry, everyone starts like this. let's look forward. now please go to the grub menu again, the one where you can select kernels to boot from. | 02:29 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, I know it is present, but if I do uname -a it still shows I am using 3.16-031600-lowlatency | 02:29 |
| wookie_ | and not the one I was supposed to reinstall | 02:29 |
| myraft | tomreyn, mighty kind of you sir. I am at the grub menu | 02:29 |
| myraft | I can select 3.13.0-105 again? | 02:30 |
| cfhowlett | wookie_, sounds like it did indeed install then. reboot, hit (esc) to bring up your grub menu >>> advanced options >>> choose your ubuntu version, i.e. kernel. | 02:30 |
| wookie_ | ok, I'll try that. Thanks for the help btw | 02:31 |
| cfhowlett | happy2help! wookie_ | 02:31 |
| tomreyn | myraft: only using cursor keys, not pressing enter, highlight the 3.x kernel entry, then press 'e' and take a photo. then press escape and highlight the first kernel entry, and press 'e' and take another photo. | 02:36 |

| myraft | tomreyn, thnx for coming back | 02:38 |
| myraft | will do | 02:39 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, I didn't see the linux-header files for the version I wanted. Is there a way for me to load them into grub advanced options? | 02:39 |
| cfhowlett | wookie_, dpkg -l | grep linux-headers* | 02:39 |
| cfhowlett | in your terminal | 02:39 |

| tomreyn | myraft: thanks, looking now | 02:46 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, can you still boot the 3.13.0 kernel? | 02:48 |
| myraft | tomreyn, 3.13.0 (like many versions back ) ? | 02:49 |
| myraft | tomreyn, the oldest I see is 3.13.0-24 | 02:49 |
| tomreyn | myraft: yes thats the one. | 02:50 |
| tomreyn | myraft: basically th eone which we bootzed before and which worked | 02:50 |
| myraft | tomreyn before that is 3.2.0.61 | 02:50 |
| tomreyn | 3.2.0 is older than 3.13.0 | 02:50 |
| myraft | ok the one we booted and got to command line was right 3.13.0.105 | 02:51 |
| myraft | tomreyn, booting to it now | 02:51 |
| tomreyn | right | 02:51 |
| myraft | says /dev/sda1 clean | 02:51 |
| tomreyn | myraft: do you not get a login prompt? | 02:52 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, I ran the code "dpkg -l | grep linux-headers*" and it showed something change in the terminal, yet when I started it didn't show any other kernels to choose from | 02:52 |
| myraft | tomreyn, : yes | 02:52 |

| tomreyn | myraft: okay, please run: blkid | 02:53 |
| myraft | tomreyn, did that, does not return anything | 02:53 |
| tomreyn | myraft: does the "/dev/sda1" entry have an UUID which starts 14e51cd8 | 02:53 |
| tomreyn | huh | 02:53 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, with sudo please | 02:54 |

| myraft | tomreyn, yes did that with sudo and see UUID="14e51cd9- | 02:55 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, thats the sda1 line, or a different one? | 02:55 |
| myraft | tomreyn, also see /dev/sda5 UUID="f5dc6068 | 02:55 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: I have not paid close attention here, but a broken proprietary graphic's driver , maybe ? | 02:55 |
| myraft | tomreyn, sda1 line | 02:55 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23685708/ This is what I'm getting. But when I restarted I didn't see any updates to the grub advanced options | 02:56 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: "not syncing: VFS : Unable to mount root fs" kernel panic on boot after upgrade to 16.04 with 16.04 kernel but not the old 3.13.0 kernel | 02:56 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: doesn't seem like a graphics driver issue to me | 02:57 |
| cfhowlett | wookie_, no lowlatency anything on that list .. | 02:57 |
| cfhowlett | also dpkg -l | grep linux-image* | 02:57 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: Yeah, not a graphic issue :) | 02:58 |
| bobdobbs | Hi all. I cant connect to the network from my asus laptop, which is loaded with ubuntu 14.04. Based on some assistance I got from this channel a few hours ago, it could be a driver issue. How can I get more diagnostic info? | 02:58 |
| tomreyn | myraft: ok, thanks. can you please note down the sda1's UUID exactly? | 02:58 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, I don't need the lowlatency I need linux-headers-3.16.0-30-generic | 02:58 |
| cfhowlett | !wifi | bobdobbs | 02:58 |
| ubottu | bobdobbs: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 02:58 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i don't need it here, but you need to enter it elsewhere. | 02:58 |
| cfhowlett | wookie_, got it. | 02:58 |
| bobdobbs | cfhowlet: I can't connect on either wifi or if I'm connected directly to the modem with a cable. | 02:59 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, When I run the linux-image I get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/23685719/ | 03:00 |
| myraft | tomreyn, /dev/sda1: UUID="14e51cd9-eaa6-4d2e-85ed-9b3e920677b2" Type="ext4" PARTUUID="00010e8c-01" | 03:00 |
| bobdobbs | Folks who helped me earlier suspected that I has airplane mode activated. But I found the setting, and airplane mode is off. | 03:00 |
| bobdobbs | Also, the folks earlier suspected that a piece of software called 'network-manager' might be missing. | 03:01 |
| bobdobbs | So I went out and braved the boxing-day crowd to buy a USB stick, in case I had to transfer a file from another computer to my lappy | 03:02 |
| cfhowlett | wookie_, first: apt-get install --reinstall the linux-image then sudo grub-update | 03:02 |
| tomreyn | myraft: now: sudo cp -p /boot/grub/grub.cfg /boot/grub/grub.cfg-old; sudo sed -i 's;/dev/sda1;UUID=a61685f2-dabc-4658-aaf2-b867b39898e3;g' /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 03:02 |
| myraft | tomreyn, doing so now | 03:04 |
| jpvega | can anyone recommend an application which consolidates all the different chats: fb, icq, messenger, whatsapp and so forth | 03:04 |
| myraft | tomreyn, do I put the UUID that I jotted down or the a6168..... ? | 03:05 |
| tomreyn | myraft: also what does "mount | grep ^/dev" say for where /dev/sda1 is mounted? it should have a "/dev/sda1 on ..." line | 03:05 |
| tomreyn | myraft: you would just ran these commands exactly as i typed them | 03:06 |
| tomreyn | myraft: was there any unexpected output when you ran them? | 03:06 |
| tomreyn | ideally, there should be none | 03:06 |

| abezuglov | hey all! After upgrading my 16.04 to 16.10, neither music nor videos are playing. | 03:07 |
| Guest31367 | anyone here could help me with a a bash script? I basically have it done, but I have a problem with an echo | 03:07 |
| abezuglov | any quick remedy? thanks! | 03:07 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, put it in a pastebin and post the link | 03:08 |
| Guest31367 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23685748/ if I remove the echo line it will actually work, without it it will just keep looping on hte first sector without actually outputing the md5sum | 03:08 |
| myraft | tomrey : still doing the first command . Got confused after jotting down UUID 14e now am putting a61.... but doing so now. | 03:09 |
| tomreyn | myraft: for exaplanations, the "sudo cp -p ..." command makes a backup copy of your grub configuration file (which grub reads at boot and displays the boot menu from). the "sudo sed -i ..." command then edits the grub configuration file, replacing any "/dev/sda1" texts in it by the UUID of this partition / file system | 03:09 |
| Guest31367 | what it does is check chunks of bytes to compare hashes, but for usabilities sake I wanted to point out what group of blocks the result was for, but the echo line is breaking the rest of the script | 03:09 |
| Guest31367 | I just need a way to alter the output so it is easier to read | 03:09 |

| tomreyn | myraft: sorry, my mistage | 03:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: sorry, my mistake | 03:11 |
| bobdobbs | if I type lspci -nn, I get a list of devices, including two network controlllers. So I'm guessing that I don't have a hardware issue | 03:11 |
| bobdobbs | 'ifconfig' only gives me details for lo | 03:11 |
| myraft | tomrey , ran the command 's;/dev/sda1;UUID=a61685f2-dabc-4658-aaf2-b867b39898e3;g' /boot/grub/grub.cfg - no errors | 03:11 |
| myraft | tomreyn, running mount |grep ^/dev shows /dev/sda1 on / type ext4 (rw....) | 03:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay i think i gave you the wrong uuid there. i'm not sure where i had that from | 03:12 |
| tomreyn | myraft: so i'm afraid you will need to type again, sorry. | 03:13 |
| myraft | tomreyn, that is what I was asking - so should I use the backup copy to replace and do the operation again | 03:13 |
| myraft | tomreyn, sure - appreciate the help | 03:13 |
| tomreyn | myraft: yes, do this: sudo cp -p /boot/grub/grub.cfg-old /boot/grub/grub.cfg; sudo sed -i 's;/dev/sda1;UUID=14e51cd9-eaa6-4d2e-85ed-9b3e920677b;g' /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 03:14 |
| tomreyn | myraft: if this works out without error (whould not produce any output) then please reboot again and select the first kernel on boot. | 03:15 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, I'm looking at it now,but it might take me a minute (novice) | 03:16 |
| Guest31367 | ok, im still here testing some things | 03:16 |
| Guest31367 | so the echo line by itself works, and the dd line by itself works, so it is a problem when getting both mixed up | 03:19 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, would the echo be interfering with a string buffer? Maybe that's stupid... still playing with it | 03:21 |

| Guest31367 | well, I just guessed my way through this so that might be happening | 03:21 |
| ozzo | i am newbie in ubuntu how i can add network n chanel in xchat | 03:22 |
| myraft | tomreyn, did that please note had a 2 at the end. Then did sudo reboot , it just sits at a blank black screen | 03:23 |
| myraft | tomreyn, should I power down and restart ? | 03:23 |
| ozzo | hello any buddy help me plz | 03:23 |
| myraft | tomreyn, keyboard (caps lock not responding ) | 03:23 |
| myraft | tomrey - powered down ( restarted ) - still getting kernel panic | 03:24 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, any luck with the first kernel now? | 03:25 |
| bobdobbs | Is network-manager an essential component of ubuntu 14.04 for networking? Like, I can't find it on my system. And I'm wondering if this is why I can't connect to the net | 03:25 |
| tomreyn | myraft: oh sorry missed it | 03:25 |
| myraft | tomreyn, still getting kernel panic | 03:25 |
| tomreyn | myraft: what did you mean by "had a 2 at the end"? did i fail to copy and paste again? | 03:25 |
| tomreyn | yes i did | 03:26 |
| tomreyn | <myraft> tomreyn, /dev/sda1: UUID="14e51cd9-eaa6-4d2e-85ed-9b3e920677b2" Type="ext4" PARTUUID="00010e8c-01" | 03:26 |
| ozzo | how i can add network | 03:26 |
| myraft | tomreyn, not biting that hand that feeds, but that is what it seem linke | 03:26 |
| myraft | but I had the b2 rebooted to the first kernel and still PANIC | 03:27 |
| tomreyn | myraft: hehe, yes, when i feed you nonsense, please bite | 03:27 |
| cfhowlett | ozzo, xchat is unsupported and undeveloped. replace it with hexchat | 03:27 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, how do you use the shell script? When I use it "test.sh file.odf", I get a bunch of "cannot skip to specified offset" | 03:27 |
| tomreyn | myraft: reboot, highlight (but dont press enter) the first kernel, press 'e' | 03:27 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, linux and ubuntu are the work of satan. | 03:28 |
| cfhowlett | https://hexchat.github.io/news/announcement.html >> https://hexchat.github.io/news/announcement.html | 03:28 |
| tomreyn | myraft: then look for the uuid in those lines you are editing then and add the missing trailing 2 | 03:28 |
| cfhowlett | wookie_, ? work on your comedy in a different channel please. | 03:28 |
| Guest31367 | uh, might be because of its size, chunk = 10 makes it so it moves 10mbs each time | 03:28 |
| Guest31367 | the value in the for is the number of times it moves | 03:29 |
| tomreyn | myraft: note that there can be multiple occasions. also, there is this line which starts with "linux" and can be quit eloing - scroll to the end. | 03:29 |
| myraft | tomreyn, I got the 2 when doing the sed command | 03:29 |
| tomreyn | myraft: oh so you fixed my mistake there before you rebooted but the kernel error persists? | 03:29 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yes I did | 03:30 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, I just realized the echo is being put into out.txt for me. is that the problem? In that case I think I have a solution for you (if you just want it put into the command line) | 03:30 |
| myraft | and yes problem persists | 03:30 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i'm glad that one of us is intelligent | 03:30 |
| tomreyn | myraft: hmm, so i guess something is wrong with packages after all | 03:30 |
| myraft | it is sitting in a blank screen for a a while | 03:30 |
| myraft | I did see some "errors" , and it said something like run "dpkg .... " after install | 03:31 |
| tomreyn | myraft: but no kernel panic? | 03:31 |
| myraft | tomreyn, just sits there - should I power it down or wait for a few minutes ? | 03:31 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, Will do. Anyways, all of this work didn't solve my problem unfortunately. I was trying to get this Archer T2UH wireless wifi usb adapter to work, but I cannot install the drivers. | 03:31 |
| myraft | it has been over 2 mins . | 03:31 |
| Guest31367 | leaftype, no, it is not a problem, at least for me when I add the echo line it just doesn't ever output the hash and loops with the same sectors | 03:32 |
| tomreyn | myraft: reboot and try the "recovery" 4.x kernel | 03:32 |
| cfhowlett | wookie_, usb? that would be considered a critical detail to mention. ask again in channel with ALL relevant details. if they're not already deep in the 'nog, perhaps someone will know. | 03:32 |
| myraft | tomreyn, even recovery 4.x is given kernel panic | 03:33 |
| Kali_Yuga | wookie_: did you get that stick working? is that youre question to get it working? | 03:33 |
| tomreyn | myraft: so is there a kernel panic or not? since you said something about a black screen, but kernel panics do produce output | 03:33 |
| wookie_ | Kali_Yoga, Yes, I'm still trying to get it to work. I've been going over a lot of forums posts on ask ubuntu, but I can't get the drivers to work from anywhere. | 03:34 |
| myraft | tomreyn, kernel panic after forced shutdown (power off). | 03:34 |
| Kali_Yuga | could this work with ndiswrapper maybe? | 03:34 |
| myraft | tomreyn, kernel panic in recovery mode too | 03:34 |
| wookie_ | I thought installing a certain kernel would help make it install, but it didn't help | 03:34 |
| Kali_Yuga | i got usb wifi sticks working with ndiswrapper | 03:35 |
| tomreyn | myraft: so you get a kernel panic when shuitting down. i'm more interested in whether oyu get a kernel panic while trying to boot and get to a login prompt. | 03:35 |
| wookie_ | Kali_Yuga, I've never used it before, and none of the other people having problems with this stick mentioned it | 03:35 |
| cfhowlett | wookie_, Kali_Yuga http://www.tp-link.com/en/download/Archer-T2UH.html#Driver | 03:35 |
| cfhowlett | native linux driver | 03:36 |
| Kali_Yuga | download that | 03:36 |
| myraft | tomreyn, no - I didn't explain well. I get kernel panic when I boot into 4.x (anything) | 03:36 |
| Kali_Yuga | and get the inf file. extract the .exe | 03:36 |
| tomreyn | myraft: so that's still the case, you get a kernel panic after selecting a 4.x kernel in the grub boot prompt, and before it reaches the "login:" promnpt. correct? | 03:37 |
| Kali_Yuga | extract the exe there should be an .inf file. and you give that ndiswrapper | 03:37 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yes that is the case | 03:37 |
| myraft | I am uploading the -e image from 4.x kernel to ensure I got the 2 at the end. | 03:38 |
| ozzo | -f | 03:38 |
| tomreyn | myraft: alright, thanks for clarifying. (i still don't understand the part about the black screen then but will just ignore it for now.) | 03:39 |
| myraft | uploaded the 'e' option from 4.x kernel to http://imgur.com/a/r5yMn | 03:39 |
| myraft | tomreyn, uploaded the 'e' option from 4.x kernel to http://imgur.com/a/r5yMn | 03:40 |
| tomreyn | myraft: thanks. this still says /dev/sda1 on the (last) "linux" line for some reason | 03:41 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, with a test file and reducing the for loop, the output.txt file looks fine to me. Here's what I get: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23685857/ | 03:41 |
| wookie_ | cfhowlett, I tried that earlier. http://paste.ubuntu.com/23685852/ same error. The reason I was trying install the different kernel is because the generic one has the /build/ folder | 03:42 |
| myraft | tomreyn, not sure what should it say and where ? | 03:42 |
| Guest31367 | so maybe it was a problem with that, i changed it slightly now the user defines the size of chunk and number of chunks to check | 03:42 |
| tomreyn | myraft: on the last screenshot you posted, the last line starts with "linux", do you see this? | 03:43 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, Changing the file size only made it more coherent, since it repeats for 544 blocks by default (huge files), so the majority of those would be the same | 03:44 |
| Guest31367 | actually, I ran the script without > output. now that I added it again it broke again, I don't understand | 03:44 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, It worked before, it simply had 544 versions, most of them the same | 03:44 |
| myraft | tomreyn, that is a mistake on my part - uploading new image | 03:45 |
| Guest31367 | no, in my case it doesn't output the hashes to console, or the echos, but only when I add > output | 03:45 |
| leaftype | > output doesn't put anything on the console, that's not what it's supposed to do | 03:45 |
| leaftype | it outputs it to a file called output.txt | 03:45 |
| Guest31367 | I thought it would output to both console and to the text file | 03:46 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, nope. A redirection means you're creating a file INSTEAD of putting it on the console | 03:46 |
| Guest31367 | I assume that just as the terminal didn't show the correct info that it wasn't doing the rest as it was supposed to either, but yeah, it is creating the text file properly so I guess i'll leave it as is | 03:46 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i see. so on the screenshot you posted there erroneously, later in this "linux" line, it says "root=/dev/sda1" - but it should say "root=UUID=14e51cd9-eaa6-4d2e-85ed-9b3e920677b2" there. | 03:47 |
| Guest31367 | I was confused because it did output something, just not everything | 03:47 |
| Guest31367 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23685861/ anyway this is the final script just in case you wanted to check it | 03:48 |
| myraft | tomreyn, uploaded the 'e' option from 4.x kernel to http://imgur.com/a/r5yMn - uploaded new image | 03:48 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, ah, lots of new tinkering going on :) | 03:48 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, this one looks good, but since it doesn't work, this was the wrong approach. so let's try something else - getting internet working and repairing those packages. | 03:49 |
| Guest31367 | yes, at the end it is more flexible now, had to change how it was written otherwise it wouldn't take the variable as part of the range | 03:49 |
| tomreyn | myraft: boot into the kernel which works, the one we tried before. | 03:50 |
| myraft | tomreyn, trying now | 03:50 |
| myraft | tomreyn, doing now | 03:50 |
| Guest31367 | thank you very much, leaftype | 03:50 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, the output you were getting to the console, btw, was just what is output by dd itself as a status. Do you want that there? | 03:51 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: myraft Do we know for sure that 'root' is on sda1 ? And want to try and boot from grub explicitly and see what results ? | 03:51 |
| Guest31367 | I guess I prefer it didn't output anything but I guess it is no big deal | 03:51 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, not sure what that means | 03:51 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, instead of status=noxfer , put in status=none | 03:52 |
| myraft | tomreyn, Bashing-om: at the command prompt where the kernel is not connected to net but can do some sudo command | 03:52 |
| Guest31367 | oh, thank you, I'm even more lost with dd that I'm with bash | 03:53 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: For now I am just looking over yall's shoulder . Giving a thought now and then . | 03:54 |
| myraft | aye | 03:54 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, Also, if you want to put it into the console AND into output.txt, you have a cool option there too. replace "> output.txt" with "| tee output.txt" | 03:54 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: tomreyn has the lead and is doing an excellent job . | 03:55 |
| leaftype | | is a pipe of the output, and tee puts it in both places | 03:55 |
| tomreyn | myraft: can you show the output of "mount" again, please? i can't find it in the scroll back | 03:55 |
| Guest31367 | the slippery tee, I use it so little I always forget it exists | 03:55 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: thanks, but then it's getting late and i'm sick, so i make mistakes ;) | 03:55 |
| leaftype | Guest31367, I was learning about it like 2 weeks ago for some reason or other, so it didn't take much refreshing to refind it | 03:55 |
| leaftype | as for dd, man pages are awesome | 03:56 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: i think we had looked at "mount" fomr the kernel which can boot up fine (3.13.0) and there /dev/sda1 was mounted at / | 03:56 |
| myraft | tomreyn, mount |grep ^/dev SHOWS : /dev/sda1 on / type ext4 (rw,,realtime,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered) | 03:56 |
| Guest31367 | well, it is good all is sorted out now. Again, thank you, leaftype | 03:56 |
| tomreyn | :) | 03:56 |

| myraft | tomreyn, how to connect to internet ? | 03:58 |
| tomreyn | myraft: thanks. right, so let's try to get networking going. | 03:59 |
| tomreyn | mycraft: "ip link" shows several lines, i assume? one will say ' lo:', i'm NOT interested in this one, what do the others say in place of ' lo:'? | 04:00 |

| myraft | tomreyn, says eth0 lo (from typing ls /sys/class/net) | 04:02 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: K, at this point in my thought process I would boot to grub's commnd line. verify that the system knows where the config files are , and see what happens booting up explicitly . - mind ya I have no experience booting systemd from grub . | 04:02 |

| myraft | !ping | 04:04 |
| ubottu | pong! | 04:04 |
| tomreyn | myraft: thanks. so do: sudo ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 && sudo dhclient eth0 | 04:04 |
| tomreyn | myraft: ideally ouy'll get an ip address assigned then, and ping will wotj this time around: ping -c3 8.8.8.8 | 04:05 |
| tomreyn | wotj -> work | 04:05 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: tomreyn has the lead, too many cooks spoils the soup . You have more than enough to keep up with :) | 04:07 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: hmm me neither (systemd boot process from grub). my approach is currently to ensure all packages are installed and up to date, since this happened after a release upgrade, and i suspect not all packages were installed properly. | 04:07 |
| myraft | tomreyn, got command working | 04:07 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: i'll be happy to pass on tzo you after this if it fails, since i'll be even more tired and out of ideas then | 04:07 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: same thoght, but in direct relation to grub package . | 04:08 |
| myraft | so I have internet now on a old kernel | 04:08 |
| tomreyn | myraft: nice. so 3 of 3 packages received, 0% packet loss, it says? | 04:08 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yeap | 04:08 |
| tomreyn | myraft: very well, so let's look into apt: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -f install | 04:09 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: myraft I too pretty tired, but good for a bit yet ., In systemd I would expect the network to be like " logical name: enp1s9 " | 04:09 |
| tomreyn | myraft: any warnings or error messages there? | 04:10 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: also on kernel 3.13.0? :) | 04:10 |
| myraft | tomreyn, acknowledge how long you have been with me | 04:10 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: Nope .. upstart would be eth0 . | 04:10 |
| tomreyn | which is what we have now | 04:11 |
| myraft | should i run the sudo commands / or what am I doing in with systemd | 04:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: please run the apt-get commands i indicated | 04:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: also dont worry about the time i'm spending, it's an interesting problem and i learn from it myself | 04:11 |
| tomreyn | also, it's the holidays - wohoo! | 04:12 |
| myraft | tomreyn, doing a bunch of things and then stopped | 04:12 |
| tomreyn | myraft: stopped as in, errored out, or just completed? | 04:12 |
| myraft | tomreyn, says E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem | 04:12 |
| myraft | tomreyn, so about to run that I guess. | 04:13 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, that's an error, indicated by the "E:" there. indeed, run it. | 04:13 |
| myraft | tomreyn, so running that now | 04:14 |
| tomreyn | myraft: good | 04:14 |
| myraft | tomreyn, looks like it is doing quite a bit , no prompts for me to do anything. | 04:14 |
| tomreyn | myraft: so you probably had an incomplete upgrade there. and we're now completing it. | 04:15 |
| myraft | tomreyn, awesome | 04:16 |
| myraft | tomreyn, seeing some errors like error processing grub-pc | 04:16 |
| tomreyn | myraft: mind that, this isn't guaranteed to fix the boot issue, but it surely has the potential to do so. ;) | 04:16 |
| myraft | tomreyn, error processing pkaage nfs-commong | 04:17 |
| myraft | but the process still continues | 04:17 |
| tomreyn | myraft: it would be good to take note of these errors if you can or we can later look them up in /var/log/apt/term.log | 04:17 |
| myraft | tomreyn, bads news | 04:18 |
| tomreyn | once it's complete, you can do "sudo less /var/log/apt/term.log" to read it. | 04:18 |
| tomreyn | myraft: bad news? | 04:18 |
| myraft | comes back to the prompt. Says Processing halted because too many errors | 04:18 |
| tomreyn | can i see a screen shot there please? | 04:18 |
| myraft | tomreyn, so done | 04:22 |
| myraft | tomreyn, http://imgur.com/a/r5yMn | 04:23 |
| myraft | last screen | 04:23 |
| tomreyn | looking | 04:23 |
| tomreyn | mycraft: what does this command return: pastebinit -v | 04:24 |
| z8z | Is there any supported nvidia card which works with some opensource driver? Where can i find a list? | 04:24 |
| myraft | tomreyn, returns : pastebinit v1.5 | 04:25 |
| leaftype | z8z, do you already have an nvidia card you want to check? if you're buying a compute rand using open source drivers.. why nvidia? | 04:25 |
| leaftype | z8z https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/CodeNames/ | 04:26 |
| tomreyn | myraft: please do: sudo dpkg --configure -a | pastebinit | 04:26 |
| tomreyn | myraft: this should return a URL, so i can look at the output | 04:27 |
| tomreyn | myraft: sorry, let me revise this command to run: | 04:27 |
| tomreyn | myraft: sudo dpkg --configure -a 2>&1 | pastebinit | 04:27 |
| myraft | tomreyn, already run it , | 04:28 |
| myraft | tomreyn, doing it with 2>&1 | 04:28 |
| tomreyn | myraft: thanks | 04:28 |

| tomreyn | myraft: i'm looking at it, thanks. | 04:31 |
| myraft | k | 04:31 |
| tomreyn | myraft: this is a pretty broken system. before we spend more time on it, you may want to consider a reinstallation. | 04:31 |
| myraft | tomreyn, copy that .... any ideas for path of least resistence | 04:31 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: any comment on that from you? | 04:31 |
| myraft | tomreyn, or can I revert back to what I had running - 14.04 or something like that. | 04:32 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: No matter how we look at it .. much much faster to save the data and RE-install. But we learn nothing from taking the nuclear option . | 04:33 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i don't think you can downgrade this system easily. and if you'll do a new installation, it makes sense to go with 16.04 rather than 14.04 or whatyou had there. | 04:33 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: well mycraft is not just here to teach us, right ;) | 04:34 |
| myraft | tomreyn, will follow y'all lead that downgrading is not possible. As for reinstall - will I lost data ? | 04:34 |
| myraft | PLEASE SAY NO ! | 04:34 |
| tomreyn | myraft: you can backup any data you need to preserve | 04:35 |
| tomreyn | myraft: this "mount | grep ^dev" we ran earlier, did this only return a single line of output? | 04:36 |
| tomreyn | just the /dev/sda1 line, or were there more? | 04:37 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yes single ilne | 04:37 |
| myraft | tomreyn, /dev/sda1 on / type ext4 (rw ...... | 04:37 |
| myraft | tomreyn, just plugged in an usb drive ( will need to back a boat-load of data) - | 04:38 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay. i'm wondering where you can backup your data to. what other external storages do you have available? | 04:38 |
| myraft | tomreyn, just pluggged in external drive in USB / how do load it or mount it ? | 04:39 |
| tomreyn | myraft: is there any data on this usb drive you just plugged in which you need to preserve? | 04:39 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yes | 04:39 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: I am all for fixing , but bear in mind that I have no php7 skills , that us on you to fix . the translation from upstart (14.04) to systemd (16.04) your config files are broke ! | 04:39 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, I am ok blasting it away (as long as I can backup the data) | 04:40 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, not sure why u mention php7 | 04:40 |
| myraft | so how do i mount the external drive plugged into usb | 04:41 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i think hphp7 is one of the packages which faile dto install | 04:41 |
| tomreyn | myraft: "dmesg | tail" should tell you which partitions were found on this usb drive you just plaugge din | 04:41 |
| myraft | tomreyn, I have no hesitation to blast away php | 04:41 |
| tomreyn | *plugged in | 04:41 |
| Bashing-om | !info php7 xenial | 04:42 |
| ubottu | Package php7 does not exist in xenial | 04:42 |
| tomreyn | myraft: was this a server or a desktop computer? since you have a mail server and webserver and php installed | 04:42 |
| Bashing-om | !info php7 trusty | 04:42 |
| ubottu | Package php7 does not exist in trusty | 04:42 |
| myraft | tomreyn, was a desktop | 04:42 |
| Bashing-om | !info php7.0 trusty | 04:43 |
| ubottu | Package php7.0 does not exist in trusty | 04:43 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i'm asking because i only plan to help you backup the data in your /home directory , so anything in your users' directory and on the desktop, but not some server data like websites or databases etc. | 04:43 |
| tomreyn | unless you tell me which servers you had running, then we can try to add this | 04:44 |
| myraft | tomreyn, lets go with this | 04:44 |
| tomreyn | myraft: so which sdb* partitions did dmesg resport? | 04:44 |
| myraft | tomreyn, : dmesg | tail | 04:45 |
| tomreyn | i'm just guessing its sdb, could also be sdf or something | 04:45 |
| tomreyn | myraft: yes, you should run this | 04:45 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: Looks to ne apache2 from php5 . | 04:45 |

| tomreyn | myraft: does "ls /mnt/" return anything? | 04:50 |
| myraft | tomreyn, shows freenas | 04:51 |
| myraft | tomreyn: something the company admin had setup (don't need or connected it anymore). | 04:51 |
| tomreyn | myraft: does "ls /mnt/freenas" return anything? | 04:51 |
| myraft | tomreyn, no | 04:51 |
| tomreyn | okay. do: sudo mount /dev/sdb /mnt/ | 04:52 |
| engineer-pearl | I am trying to run a command in a screen window while it is detatched and it is not being recognized. I have tried 'screen -S booted -p 0 -X "echo hello"', 'screen -S booted -p 0 -X echo hi', and 'screen -S booted echo hi',. The screen was initialized with 'screen -S booted' so I know it should be running. duckduckgo has not been sufficiently helpful. What is wrong with my command? | 04:52 |
| tomreyn | myraft: then "df -h /mnt/" - to find out how much free space is available | 04:52 |
| myraft | tomreyn, problem : says mount ; specail device /dev/sbd does not exist | 04:53 |
| tomreyn | myraft: sbd is not sdb | 04:53 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i.e. you made a little typo while copying the command | 04:54 |
| intrafear | can anyone recommend a good desktop widget style cpu/memory monitor ? | 04:54 |
| myraft | tomreyn, Yikes (my bad) - so mount : wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb, missing codepage o helper program | 04:56 |
| engineer-pearl | I usually just use gnome-system-monitor. What information do you need? | 04:56 |
| intrafear | just really cpu/ram | 04:56 |
| myraft | df -h /mnt show 19G Avail 86% used | 04:56 |
| tomreyn | myraft: my bad also, please use: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ | 04:56 |
| intrafear | ill try gnome-system-monitor, i remember how that worked | 04:56 |
| tomreyn | myraft: then "df -h /mnt/" again | 04:57 |
| myraft | tomreyn, thanks df -h /mnt show /dev/sdb1/ 932G 695G Avail 26% ussed | 04:57 |
| myraft | tomreyn, starting the copy from ~/Documents to this place | 04:58 |
| myraft | might take some time | 04:59 |
| tomreyn | myraft: well that's plenty. so let's see how much data we need to backup (this will take a good while to run): sudo du -sh /home/ | 04:59 |
| myraft | tomreyn, how to specify where to copy to e.g. /mnt/somedir_20161225 | 04:59 |
| tomreyn | myraft: if you copy files as they are you will loose linux file system permissions. my plan was to create a tar archive on the usb disk and store data in there instead. but you decide. | 05:00 |
| myraft | tomreyn, I go with yoru plan | 05:00 |
| myraft | way too tired | 05:00 |
| tomreyn | myraft: s;) o the 'du' command please | 05:00 |
| myraft | tomreyn, du -sh /home did not come back yet | 05:00 |
| tomreyn | ok | 05:01 |
| myraft | tomreyn, still going | 05:01 |
| tomreyn | myraft: so you have another usb disk or stick where you can put the ubuntu installer on then? since you'll need one to reinstall later, right? | 05:02 |
| myraft | tomreyn, | 05:02 |
| tomreyn | i'm here | 05:03 |
| myraft | tomreyn, got one plugged in right now | 05:04 |
| tomreyn | myraft: you may have posted a line starting with a /, which IRC interprets as a command but does not echo | 05:04 |
| tomreyn | myraft: 'du' is still going? | 05:04 |
| myraft | tomreyn, 87 G | 05:05 |
| tomreyn | myraft: okay, i bet this will take a while. but we don't need to wait for it, since it's complete once copying finishes. | 05:06 |
| myraft | tomreyn, got a new USB in this machie | 05:08 |
| tomreyn | myraft: thats to do what? | 05:09 |
| myraft | got a new USB on the machine I am chatting with - so that I can download 16.04.1 and use as live USB ( I guess) | 05:10 |
| myraft | not sure if there is a option from the existing system | 05:10 |
| myraft | tomreyn, also if I can just copy ~/home/me/Documents and ~/home/me/Pictures I am good | 05:11 |
| myraft | tomreyn, I don't need to copy all 86 GB | 05:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: to do the full backup now, do: sudo tar -cf /mnt/ubuntu-backup.tar /home/ | 05:11 |
| myraft | so what is the easiest way to copy these to the /mnt/20161225 directory, can I do a mvoe | 05:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: or just copy those documents if thats all you want | 05:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: for the documents and pictures, you can do: sudo cp -r ~/home/me/Documents /mnt/20161225/; sudo cp -r ~/home/me/Pictures /mnt/20161225/ | 05:13 |
| myraft | tomreyn, | 05:13 |
| myraft | tomreyn, doing now | 05:13 |
| myraft | tomreyn, in the mean time, do I start downloading Ubuntu 16.04 on the USB stick , or is it to be nuke from the broken workstation ? | 05:14 |
| jwash | hi everyone, in windoze web pages say Alt + 0127 to do a section symbol. How do i do it in Linux? | 05:14 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i think it may be easier to create the ubuntu installer on the system you are using IRC on now | 05:14 |
| tomreyn | that's if oyu have another usb slot available there | 05:15 |
| myraft | I have a clean USB connected to the system I am chatting with you | 05:15 |
| myraft | tomreyn, I a downloading ISO file from here : https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/thank-you?country=US&version=16.04.1&architecture=amd64 | 05:16 |
| myraft | tomreyn, does that work as "installer" or "live USB" ? | 05:16 |
| tomreyn | myraft: both. here's how you get the iso written to the usb storage: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Creating_a_bootable_Ubuntu_USB_flash_drive_from_Windows | 05:17 |
| myraft | tomreyn, the machine I am using is Ubutu aswell | 05:18 |
| tomreyn | myraft: oh, good choice, i was assuming windows because of the ntfs formatted usb disk | 05:19 |
| myraft | tomreyn, so now I have the ISO on the USB. I remember there was something I had to do to make ti "live USB" | 05:20 |
| myraft | I don't think expanding it was the right thing | 05:20 |
| tomreyn | myraft: indeed, placing the iso file on the usb wont work | 05:21 |
| tomreyn | nor is expanding it. | 05:21 |
| myraft | ok ? | 05:21 |
| tomreyn | myraft: use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Install_and_run_Startup_Disk_Creator_alias_usb-creator | 05:21 |
| tomreyn | but be sure to store it on the right disk, not the one you are currently backing up to | 05:22 |
| tomreyn | any contents of this destination will be erased | 05:22 |
| tomreyn | myraft: if you prefer command line, then the mkusb method (also discussed on this wiki page) can be the better approach. | 05:24 |
| myraft | ubuntu has startup disk as a app | 05:24 |
| myraft | sweet | 05:24 |
| myraft | using that now | 05:24 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: tomreyn Faster is "dd" .. something like just ' sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M && sync ' But must be very sure .. very ! | 05:24 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: ok, you can guide on that ;) | 05:25 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, the ubuntu startup disk did not work | 05:26 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i should go to bed soon. please take a short time to think about what else you may need backed up form tzhe old system. websites, php code, mysql databases, global configurations etc. | 05:26 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: :) .. just that I have the more faith in terminal :) | 05:26 |
| myraft | tomreyn, thanks buddy | 05:28 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: same here, but it can be more complicated than a GUI tool when there is a lot of overhead in transporting back and forth what is and should be happening on screen. | 05:29 |
| tomreyn | well, depends | 05:29 |
| tomreyn | myraft: welcome. so IF you used the 'tar' command to backup your stuff, you will be able to view and extract the contents of this archive using file-rolle or squeeze (or the text-only 'tar' command) on linux, or using 7-zip on any system. | 05:31 |
| === chen is now known as Guest27570 | ||
| myraft | tomreyn, copy that. Apparently the "Startup disk creator" on Ubuntu does like 16.04 | 05:32 |
| tomreyn | myraft: be sure to not just unplug the disks when you're done backing up. the safest way is to power off the computer and unplug the disk then. | 05:33 |
| myraft | copy that | 05:33 |
| tomreyn | myraft: yes i think there is some ubuntu release where it does and another where it doesn't work, i forgot which is which, though | 05:33 |
| myraft | tomreyn, if u must call it a nite | 05:34 |
| myraft | let me see if Bashing-om can give the command line option | 05:34 |
| myraft | tar copy still going | 05:34 |
| myraft | b back after 30 sec | 05:34 |
| tomreyn | myraft: yes, 6:30 am and i got to travel tomorrow (or rather later today). | 05:35 |
| tomreyn | so... good luck! | 05:35 |
| tomreyn | i'll probably be around more tomorrow | 05:35 |

| Bashing-om | myraft: Great, and it computes as correct ? | 05:48 |
| darknight8273 | run the command "md5sum filename.iso" | 05:48 |
| darknight8273 | and compare the output to the sum on the server | 05:49 |
| darknight8273 | you should get something like this : 4a03af46476d4a2e601c5a4a01423efc | 05:49 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, I did and got 176b94c34406b88f1740f08c7668a7e1 | 05:50 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, I don't see that on http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ | 05:50 |
| darknight8273 | myraft, it will be there as a seperate file on the download mirror | 05:51 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: compare to : http://releases.ubuntu.com/xenial/MD5SUMS // checking . | 05:51 |
| cfhowlett | 16.04.1 64 bit = 17643c29e3c4609818f26becf76d29a3 | 05:51 |
| myraft | cfhowlett, thanks , but I am getting 176b94c34406b88f1740f08c7668a7e1 | 05:52 |
| cfhowlett | then you got a bad download. do a torrent and try again. | 05:52 |
| myraft | cfhowlett, will do that | 05:52 |
| Bashing-om | cfhowlett: myraft :) .. See that is why we check before copying . Saves a lot of effort later ! | 05:54 |
| cfhowlett | indeed! | 05:55 |
| Bashing-om | cfhowlett: myraft what we have here is a real hosed up release upgrade. Maybe not able to fix so we prepare for the worst . | 05:56 |
| cfhowlett | I always clean install for precisely this scenario | 05:57 |
| cfhowlett | and I run LTS only to save my sanity. | 05:57 |
| Bashing-om | cfhowlett: same ^ . We learned the hard way . | 05:58 |
| myraft | cfhowlett, Bashing-om: thnx , learned a new thing. I downloaded from ubuntu site, so was incorrectly sure that it must be OK. Should have been tipped off that it was only 377 MB. Right now I am getting 1.5 GB from torrent. | 06:00 |
| myraft | about half way there. | 06:00 |
| cfhowlett | :) whenever possible, myraft, use torrents. much cleaner self-checking and reliability than a direct DL. Of course, run the md5sum anyway ... | 06:00 |
| White_Light | darknight8273, kexec completely hangs if you let it handle reboots, and kdump-tools just locks on any kernel panic. I've verified memory is allocated for the crash, everything is configured for grub, all relevant services are running, all kernels are up to date, regenerated grub. | 06:01 |
| White_Light | just totally freezes | 06:01 |
| White_Light | works like a dream on CentOS/RHEL | 06:02 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: :) .. See we are all at some point on this learning curve . We never ever quit learning . Now presently you have become our ginny pig :) | 06:02 |
| myraft | :) | 06:02 |
| darknight8273 | White_Light, hmm | 06:02 |
| White_Light | I hope I'm making some dumb mistake, but I can't figure it out so far | 06:02 |
| darknight8273 | and this is unique to 16.04? | 06:03 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, so after getting the 1.5 GB from torrent and doing md5sum , it confirms. Now doing the startup disk from the Ubuntu GUI, about 10% done | 06:07 |
| myraft | my desktop backup is still running | 06:07 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: Making good progress , But I say again I have the greater faith in terninal to make up the liveUSB . | 06:09 |
| cfhowlett | myraft, curious query: where on the planet are you?! That download was FAST! | 06:09 |
| myraft | cfhowlett, in washington - have FIOS | 06:10 |
| cfhowlett | myraft, ah, one of those? Bellevue? | 06:10 |

| darknight8273 | White_Light, have you done this part? "Testing the Crash Dump Mechanism will cause a system reboot. In certain situations, this can cause data loss if the system is under heavy load. If you want to test the mechanism, make sure that the system is idle or under very light load. " | 06:11 |
| darknight8273 | i mean have you done the testing part? | 06:12 |
| White_Light | darknight8273, yeah that's where it fails | 06:12 |
| darknight8273 | oh ok | 06:12 |
| White_Light | I'm just testing on an otherwise idle vm | 06:12 |
| White_Light | I've used it on centos but not ubuntu | 06:12 |
| marcAnthony | hi guys! Is there any linux thing that can monitor server status by just ssh access (no plugin to install or anything, just ssh) ? | 06:15 |
| math571 | are there any automatic hardening programs | 06:16 |
| cfhowlett | math571, enable your firewall, disable browser flash, install adblock, avoid sketchy sites. | 06:17 |
| math571 | cfhowlett: would replacing gnash with flash do the deal | 06:17 |
| math571 | i mean flash with gnash* | 06:17 |
| cfhowlett | never used it, math571. I run FFox with the no-flash plugin and enable it very selectively. | 06:18 |
| math571 | FFox? | 06:18 |
| math571 | ah firefox | 06:18 |
| math571 | i too use the no-flash plugin, cfhowlett, and i only turn it on for youtube or porn | 06:19 |
| Triffid_Hunter | marcAnthony: sure, make a script that sshes in periodically and emails you whatever info you like from the server, or emails you if ssh login fails | 06:19 |
| math571 | but i was wondering if it was of any use to turn to gnash | 06:19 |
| cfhowlett | math571, try it. | 06:19 |
| Triffid_Hunter | marcAnthony: cron is good for that, and use ssh keys instead of password | 06:19 |
| marcAnthony | thanks for your advices, but I am looking for something more "realtime monitoring" such as graphs. Do you have any idea? | 06:21 |
| cfhowlett | marcAnthony, might want to ask #ubuntu-server for such recommendations | 06:22 |
| darknight8273 | dont use flash | 06:22 |
| darknight8273 | its ridden with holes | 06:23 |
| dudeji | Hey guys I am having one ubuntu server which writes to fs , but now I am getting high IO on one of the server . But other server is fine. What can be issue with this server / | 06:24 |
| marcAnthony | <cfhowlett> :: I'll give it a try | 06:25 |
| math571 | darknight8273, what do you use | 06:26 |
| darknight8273 | use youtube-dl | 06:27 |
| darknight8273 | works for most sites, is actively developed and is safer than adobe crap | 06:27 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: Gonna go indulge in my nasty habit. back in a few . | 06:27 |
| math571 | i remember using youtube-dl to get porn a year ago | 06:28 |

| Bashing-om | myraft: Yeah , that one is bad enough ,, I do not want more . | 06:32 |
| dudeji | not sure if it is ubuntu-server or just ubuntu | 06:32 |
| dudeji | its just ubuntu i checked it | 06:33 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: We got a liveUSB of 16.04 yet ? | 06:41 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, yes , that was done a while back | 06:41 |
| myraft | it is the backup that is kiling me | 06:41 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: Sorry - missed it . OK . next is verify the copy . boot the liveUSB and as soon as the bios screen clears hold a shift key -> kanfuage screen; wscape key -> boot options screen -> " check disk for defects " . | 06:43 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, still doing backup - | 06:45 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, not sure I follow : shift key -> kanfuage screen; wscape key -> boot options screen -> " check disk for defects " . I get the shift key , what happens after that ? | 06:46 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: K; patience here is a virtue .Ya get a "language" screen, escape key to accept the default . See I too am getting to tired to do this . | 06:47 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, I hear you. It is 2 in the morning . So calling it a night. Will let the backup finish before trying to do a fresh install (since it will nuke the system is wha tI guess). | 06:48 |
| Bashing-om | myraft: Yeah .. but we can still try and salvage this install . tomorrow (??) . | 06:49 |
| myraft | Bashing-om, copy that | 06:50 |
| myraft | thanks man | 06:50 |
| myraft | will be on the system in about 7 hours (if you are around). | 06:50 |
| myraft | thanks again | 06:50 |

| blackflow | MarcoP: clamav checks firefox (sites it opens) at run time? | 12:21 |
| MarcoP | not sure blackflow | 12:22 |
| blackflow | MarcoP: well afaik it doesn't, so I'm confused by your question | 12:22 |
| MarcoP | can ubuntu get a windows trojan? | 12:22 |
| MarcoP | I did a scan with clamav | 12:22 |
| MarcoP | manual scan | 12:22 |
| blackflow | "get"? yes there are intrusion vectors where a trojan can be planted but whether it'll work, that's another question | 12:22 |
| MarcoP | i wonder if this is a false positive or real... | 12:23 |
| blackflow | you did a scan of what? | 12:23 |
| MarcoP | the computer dude | 12:23 |
| MarcoP | come on man | 12:23 |
| MarcoP | you never did a AV scan? | 12:23 |
| blackflow | you ran "clamav --scan-my-computer-dude" ? | 12:23 |
| MarcoP | i did a scan on idiots on #ubuntu thats the scan i did | 12:24 |
| blackflow | so that's what i'm asking you, WHAT did you scan, and WHERE did it report that trojan | 12:24 |
| blackflow | alright then. good luck with that. | 12:24 |

| yao_ziyuan | i read about a 0-day attack affecting ubuntu 16.04 recently (http://arstechnica.com/security/2016/12/fedora-and-ubuntu-0days-show-that-hacking-desktop-linux-is-now-a-thing/). does upgrading to 16.10 fix it? | 12:25 |

| yao_ziyuan | Ben64: cool | 12:30 |
| yao_ziyuan | Ben64: do you suggest me installing 16.04 or 16.10? | 12:30 |
| Ben64 | 16.04 | 12:31 |
| yao_ziyuan | Ben64: why? | 12:31 |
| Ben64 | it's LTS | 12:32 |
| yao_ziyuan | Ben64: my new desktop computer (XPS 8900, i7-6700K, 32G RAM, GTX960) has problems installing 16.04 (probably related to the GTX960 video card). | 12:33 |
| yao_ziyuan | it can install 15.10 without problems or any special parameter. it can install 16.10 with the "nomodeset" parameter. | 12:33 |
| yao_ziyuan | but for 16.04 i haven't found a parameter that can make the video card work. | 12:34 |
| yao_ziyuan | if i install 16.04, at startup it will show a flashing window. | 12:34 |
| yao_ziyuan | meaning the video card doesn't work. | 12:34 |
| Ben64 | ok then do whatever you want, why ask if you're hiding extra info | 12:35 |

| tomreyn | myraft: i assume the backup is done? | 14:10 |
| tomreyn | i.e. the tar command exited without error. "ls -lh /mnt/" should hint on it. | 14:11 |
| myraft | tomreyn, good morning. got live USB and got the backup done from last nite. Now have booted using USB and trying installation "alongside" Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS" - hoping to save some of the existing | 14:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: hmm, your old installation had everythiong on a single partition. If you install into this while keeping files in place, you may not end up with a clean system. I've not ever done this, though, so I'm not sure how this actually behaves, what is cleaned up automatically and what is kept. | 14:14 |
| yao_ziyuan | what will be the next LTS after 16.04? | 14:15 |
| tomreyn | yao_ziyuan: 18.04 lts. it's a 2-year release cycle for lts | 14:15 |
| yao_ziyuan | i see | 14:15 |
| myraft | tomreyn, not sure either. doing it this way it is spinning a wheel for 9 mins now. | 14:15 |
| yao_ziyuan | so 16.04.1 is my wish, only if i can make it install on my xps 8900. | 14:16 |
| tomreyn | myraft: also i read in the scroll back that bashing-om had offered (?) to go over his approach of fixing up your existing installation without reinstalling. | 14:16 |
| tomreyn | myraft: so the installation is already running? | 14:16 |
| tomreyn | egsome: flashing through wine is not a good idea. use freedos. | 14:17 |
| myraft | tomreyn, you are right that he had offered, but it was 2 AM and we were both tired. Not sure how to "fix" the installation. I am hoping installing alongside might save the old files | 14:18 |
| myraft | tomreyn, installation is running - not sure working. It is spinning the first screen for 13 mins now. | 14:19 |
| egsome | tomreyn, didn't think about it, did You try it recently ? last time for me was some years ago. | 14:19 |
| tomreyn | myraft: yes it should. i'm just wondering whether it will actually keep more than it should, like those broken packages. | 14:19 |
| tomreyn | myraft: what does this screen say? | 14:19 |
| myraft | tomreyn, this is the 2nd screen. Says "install Ubuntu 16.04.01 LTS alongside Ubuntu 16.04.1" Select drives is an option and show /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 - hidden | 14:21 |
| tomreyn | egsome: a year ago roughly. i tend to attach an external disk with windows 10 on it nowadays when i have to work with hardware which no linux compatible firmware update mechanisms are available for. | 14:21 |
| tomreyn | myraft: both sda1 and sda2 are hidden? | 14:22 |
| myraft | tomreyn, no /dev/sda1 (ext4) is not hidden. | 14:22 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i'll spin up a VM to see what you see, should not take long. | 14:22 |
| egsome | tomreyn, Actually I have dual boot with Windows 10 right now, but love to stay inside Ubuntu, Windows is really annoying me ! | 14:22 |
| myraft | tomreyn, that is quite a bit of effort to help a complete stranger. Thanks. | 14:23 |
| egsome | tomreyn, Downloading FreeDOS, hope to get something working, maybe through VirtualBox. | 14:23 |
| myraft | tomreyn, two button options were "back" and "install now". After clicking install now, now watching spinning wheel for about 20 mins | 14:24 |

| Skankhuntfourty2 | if so i will google and emudetcate myself on the subjects | 14:28 |
| myraft | tomreyn, says "if you continue, the changes listed below will be written disk. | 14:28 |
| kk4ewt | Skankhuntfourty2, yes either via ssh or vnc | 14:28 |
| tomreyn | myraft: 20m without indication of progress or of wehat it was doing is VERY long, this seems wrong. i'm still fighting with bringing up this VM here. | 14:29 |

| BluesKaj | egsome, lots of false positives with linux versions of windows antivirus | 14:30 |
| myraft | tomreyn, the partition tables of the following devices change SCSI. The following partitions are going to be formatted : partition #6 of SCSI 1(0,0,0) (sda) as ext4 partition #5 of SCSI (0.0.0) as swap | 14:30 |
| myraft | tomreyn, option buttons are "go back" or "continue" | 14:31 |
| tomreyn | myraft: if you'll foprmat partitions you'll loose data, that's NOT what you want. | 14:32 |
| myraft | copy that | 14:32 |
| tomreyn | egsome: if you got freedos from an untrusted location get it from a trusted location instead. but freedos support is not here in #ubuntu. | 14:32 |
| tomreyn | myraft: see if there's a way to just install without formatting | 14:35 |
| myraft | tomreyn, not sure - that is what I am trying to figure out. | 14:35 |
| myraft | tomreyn, might as well hit the "go back" button and try again. | 14:35 |
| tomreyn | yes if those are your only options, you'll need to | 14:36 |
| tomreyn | those -> "back" and "continue" | 14:36 |
| myraft | tomreyn, installation type options (abbreviated) : "erase Ubuntu 16.04 and reinstall", "Install ubuntu 16.04 alongside 16.04", "erase disk and install ubuntu" , "someting else" | 14:37 |
| myraft | that is why I chose install alongside. | 14:37 |
| tomreyn | myraft: i agree, this sounds like the right option. but not if it then formats your existing sda1 partition. maybe the best approach is this: you resize your existing sda1 partition using gparted (exit installer, then look for the partitioning utility), then reboot into the installer again and do a fresh installation on a new partition. | 14:40 |
| myraft | tomreyn, so I selected "something else". How about create a new partition table and install there ? | 14:41 |

| sruli | Peppernrino: maybe something with the dns on it, try pinging ubuntu.com from it | 14:45 |
| Peppernrino | so it shouldn't be dns | 14:45 |
| tomreyn | myraft: you have a single partition table per disk. if you create a new partition table, it overwrites the old, and you loose your existing partition. do not try to change your partitions using the installer, but return to the live system (exit installer) and use gparted from there. | 14:46 |
| Peppernrino | pings google fine | 14:46 |
| myraft | tomreyn, ok doing it now. | 14:46 |

| tomreyn | myraft: sorry, I got sidetracked. okay, so since sda1 is almost full, shrinking it is not going to hlep us much. | 15:03 |
| tomreyn | myraft: we can, however, delete sda2 + sda5, this will free 20 GB, which is enough for a new installation | 15:04 |
| tomreyn | you could then have a second linux installation next to the old one, and without touching its data. | 15:05 |
| myraft | tomreyn, deleting /sda2 and sda5 | 15:05 |
| tomreyn | myraft: this will allow you to access and copy data from the old installation form a (graphical) file browser after installation. i think it's a good way to go. | 15:06 |
| Skankhuntfourty2 | kk4ewt ty | 15:10 |
| myraft | tomreyn, please take a look at this http://imgur.com/a/uzVoC ( image 3) | 15:10 |
| tomreyn | myraft: actually remove this "New partition #1", make it "unallocated space" | 15:11 |
| tomreyn | or just "unallocated" | 15:11 |
| tomreyn | myraft: once that's done, reboot (again into the live / installer usb), start installer, install into unparititoned space. | 15:13 |

| myraft | anything else to do before I restart | 15:13 |
| tomreyn | myraft: no, i don't think there is anything else | 15:14 |
| myraft | tomreyn, do I need to change "Flags" boot from sda1 to sda2 | 15:14 |
| tomreyn | myraft: the installer will do it. but you can actually remove the one from sda1, this may help the installer ignore this one. | 15:16 |

| tomreyn | myraft: hmm sda2 should be removed. are you able to remove it now? | 15:21 |
| tomreyn | myraft: you should only have sda1 and free space there | 15:22 |
| noone32 | hi how can I use dedicated GPU instead of intel? | 15:23 |
| myraft | tomreyn, check out the new image I uploaded to : http://imgur.com/a/uzVoC | 15:23 |

| noone32 | but i also see 01:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK208M [GeForce GT 740M] (rev a1) | 15:24 |
| darknight2324 | noone32: u'll have to enable nvidia modules in the kernel | 15:24 |
| noone32 | darknight2324: how? | 15:24 |
| tomreyn | myraft: you have 2 storage devices attached, disk sda has 138.3 GB capacity. disk sdb has 21.8 GB capacity. are we sure that sda is the internal hard disk / SSD we want to install to? | 15:25 |
| myraft | tomreyn, I selectted /sda2 and started installation . | 15:26 |
| myraft | :) | 15:26 |
| tomreyn | myraft: ok, good luck.- :) | 15:26 |
| tomreyn | myraft: my next question would have been why there is data stored on sdb2. | 15:27 |
| tomreyn | sorry sda2 | 15:27 |
| noone32 | anyone? | 15:28 |
| TZAnolo | noone32 is your system a NVIDIA OPTIMUS | 15:28 |
| noone32 | no, it is a geforce | 15:29 |
| ledeni | TZAnolo, it is | 15:29 |
| noone32 | no it is geforce | 15:29 |
| === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo | ||
| TZAnolo | sorry, I really dont know how. | 15:32 |
| noone32 | uh | 15:33 |
| noone32 | how can i enable them? | 15:33 |
| tomreyn | noone32: axxording to http://askubuntu.com/questions/661922/how-am-i-supposed-to-use-nvidia-prime/661924#661924 you need to: sudo apt-get install nvidia-361 nvidia-prime | 15:34 |
| tomreyn | noone32: but dont turn to me if this breaks your grpahical output, i don't feel like debugging nvidia today. | 15:35 |
| noone32 | i've just installed it with run file from nvidia website | 15:35 |
| tomreyn | that's probably a good approach to break things. | 15:36 |
| noone32 | why? | 15:37 |
| noone32 | it is the official one | 15:38 |
| BluesKaj | TZAnolo, sudo lshw -C video, do you see 2 dispalys listed? | 15:38 |
| tomreyn | because those driver installers you can download from nvidias website are often not well integrated with ubuntu and tend to break on kernel updates. | 15:38 |
| noone32 | hmm | 15:38 |
| tomreyn | but i don't really have first hand experience, this is just an observation based on previous chats here. | 15:39 |
| === LastResort is now known as RebelAngel | ||

| aruns | Hi. | 15:40 |
| aruns | I am running Ubuntu 16.04, what is the best way to perform a virus scan? | 15:40 |
| aruns | As our company website, made using WordPress, seems to have been infected. | 15:41 |
| noone32 | BluesKaj: yep | 15:41 |
| aruns | And I merely want to rule out the possibility of my laptop being compromised. | 15:41 |
| aruns | As I have edited blog articles on the company website using this laptop. | 15:41 |
| kk4ewt | aruns, clamav | 15:42 |
| aruns | kk4ewt: Ah, I've already installed that. | 15:42 |
| aruns | Just wondered if that's the best command line utility I can use for Ubuntu. | 15:42 |
| caliculk | Hm, so my VPS company finally performed the upgrade and I was able to do a "do-release-upgrade" but now when rebooting my vps, the server hangs every boot with what appears to be be trying to perform fsck on every boot. I can't be sure, but it just states "/dev/vda1: clean a/b files, x/y blocks" and then just sits there for a while (longer then 30 seconds, so far it has been a few minutes). | 15:42 |
| BluesKaj | noone32, can you pastebin the output? | 15:43 |
| caliculk | Is there any way to bypass this with minimal boot up access to the machine? | 15:43 |
| noone32 | sure | 15:43 |
| kk4ewt | aruns, also look up the virus that the wordpress site is populating | 15:43 |
| noone32 | BluesKaj: http://pastebin.com/vPniCyD0 | 15:43 |
| kk4ewt | aruns, that tells me the admin of the wordpress site has not been keeping it updated | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | noone32, you should be using the nvidia-prime driver from the ubuntu repos, not the driver from bvidi's website..they're numbered the same but their kernel modules don't get upgraded by apt/dpkg when needed | 15:48 |
| BluesKaj | bvidi's=nvidia's | 15:48 |
| noone32 | hmm, let me check :P | 15:49 |
| BluesKaj | ok , gotta leave for a20mins or so....freezing rain emergency | 15:49 |
| wookie_ | ledeni, sorry I didn't see your message. It says Bus 003 Device 004: ID 148f:761a Ralink Technology, Corp. | 15:49 |
| noone32 | aww :D | 15:50 |
| === Fuzi_ is now known as Fuzi | ||
| noone32 | and what is the correct number of nvidia-*number* package for 740M? | 15:52 |
| Bruno_BSC | Sdasadad | 15:53 |
| Bruno_BSC | sorry | 15:53 |
| noone32 | WAT? keyboard testing? | 15:54 |
| myraft | tomreyn, got the installation - shows another drive with the data in there | 15:58 |
| myraft | tomreyn, thanks man | 15:58 |
| tomreyn | myraft: very well. now your new installation only has those 20 GB, which is not much. you'll best backup any data you still need to the new installation (as much as fits) or to a usb attached disk. and then you install and start gparted again and remove sda1, then create a new ext4 file system there and make it usable form your new installation. | 16:01 |
| myraft | ok | 16:01 |
| tomreyn | myraft: you will run into permission errors while accessing most directories on sda1. you can still do so as root, though. you could start the nautilus file browser from a temrinal using sudo to achieve this; sudo nautilus /mnt | 16:06 |
| myraft | tomreyn, how do I get the other drive to mount on bootup | 16:07 |
| myraft | right now I had to click from nautilus to mount | 16:07 |
| noone32 | how can I run nvidia prime? | 16:07 |
| tomreyn | caliculk: fsck during boot is entirely normal, that's a standard approach for the root file system. | 16:08 |
| caliculk | tomreyn yeah, but it shouldn't take 10 minutes, should it? | 16:08 |
| caliculk | I was able to install Ubuntu 16.04 via CD, and it boots fine, but, in my experience I have never had it happen on every boot. | 16:09 |
| tomreyn | caliculk: no. and it doesn't, fsck already exited based on the output you posted. something else must be hanging. | 16:09 |
| tomreyn | caliculk: try an emergency boot, this might provide a better clue | 16:09 |
| tomreyn | i mean recovery | 16:09 |
| caliculk | Well, it's already blown away. :) | 16:09 |
| caliculk | If it does it again after this next dist-upgrade, I will give it a go though | 16:10 |
| wookie_ | Since I can't get the drivers to install on my Archer T2UH AC 600 wireless adapter, can someone recommend a usb wireless adapter that is plug and play for 14.04 or 16.04 | 16:11 |
| aruns | Is there a decent command line virus scanner for Ubuntu? | 16:13 |
| ur0 | ClamAV? | 16:13 |
| aruns | I am using Clamscan but it keeps on reporting too many false negatives. | 16:13 |
| aruns | Yeah. | 16:13 |
| aruns | I have tried Clam but too many false positives. | 16:14 |
| ioria | wookie_, http://askubuntu.com/questions/726569/tp-link-ac600-driver-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts-x64 | 16:14 |
| wookie_ | ioria, I tried to go through so many of those forums posts yesterday and this morning. I still can't get it to work. If you would like to help me figure this out I would appreciate it though. | 16:15 |
| ioria | wookie_, you mean you tried to build that driver from git and it does not work ? | 16:15 |
| wookie_ | ioria, correct. | 16:16 |
| tomreyn | myraft: mkdir -p $HOME/sda1; sudo cp -p /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.orig; blkid /dev/sda1 | cut -d' ' -f2 | tr -d '"' | xargs -i echo '{}' $HOME/sda1 ext4 user,users 0 2 | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab >/dev/null | 16:16 |
| ioria | wookie_, the pciid is correct ? 148f:761a | 16:16 |
| wookie_ | ioria, yes | 16:17 |
| myraft | tomreyn, thanks | 16:17 |
| ioria | wookie_, are you on trusty or xenial ? | 16:17 |
| wookie_ | ioria, trusty 14.04 | 16:17 |
| wookie_ | ioria, I can show you the errors I am getting if you would like | 16:17 |
| ioria | wookie_, yes | 16:17 |
| tomreyn | myraft: this will make sda1 available at sda1/ inside your home directory on next boot, or when you run: mount $HOME/sda1 | 16:17 |
| wookie_ | ioria, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23688481/ | 16:18 |
| OerHeks | wookie_, some few hours back you asked for changing the kernel from lowlatency to generic, did you change? | 16:23 |
| wookie_ | OerHeks, I tried it, but when I switch kernels I don't have any access to internet | 16:24 |
| wookie_ | OerHeks, even when I plug in ethernet I have no internet | 16:24 |
| ioria | wookie_, it build for me ... | 16:24 |
| ioria | *s | 16:24 |
| wookie_ | ioria, Did you read my ubuntu paste? | 16:25 |
| ioria | wookie_, uname -r ? | 16:25 |
| ioria | wookie_, a moment, please (only two hands :þ) | 16:25 |
| wookie_ | ioria, 3.16.0-031600-lowlatency | 16:25 |
| ioria | ho, now it's clear | 16:26 |
| wookie_ | ioria, Thanks for taking the time to help me. | 16:26 |
| ioria | wookie_, i don't think you can use that kernel anymore | 16:26 |
| ioria | wookie_, you need to upgrade to xenial HWE | 16:26 |
| wookie_ | ioria, so I have to update to 16.04? | 16:27 |
| ioria | wookie_, no, if you don't want ... just the kernel and xorg | 16:27 |
| ioria | wookie_, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 16:27 |
| ioria | wookie_, this part : sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-xenial etc. etc ... | 16:28 |
| wookie_ | ioria, so the one under Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Trusty tahr? | 16:29 |
| ioria | wookie_, yes, you're trusty , right ? | 16:29 |
| wookie_ | ioria, how do I verify I am trusty? I am pretty sure I am trusty | 16:30 |
| ioria | wookie_, cat /etc/issue | 16:30 |
| wookie_ | ioria, it says "Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS \n \l" | 16:30 |
| ioria | wookie_, ok, may i ask you why you're using 3.16.0-031600-lowlatency ? | 16:31 |
| wookie_ | ioria, I was trying to figure out a kernel that would work with the drivers, so for some reason I installed the lowlatency instead of the generic. I'm a noob :P | 16:32 |
| ioria | wookie_, can you paste ls /boot ? | 16:32 |
| wookie_ | ioria, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23688546/ | 16:33 |
| ioria | wookie_, ok, you can remove the 3.16 ans use 3.13.106 (that is updated) or you can upgrade to the xenial hwe | 16:35 |
| wookie_ | ioria, Which is the easiest? | 16:37 |
| ioria | wookie_, you manually installed 3.16 for what purpose exactly ? | 16:38 |
| wookie_ | ioria, to try and get the drivers for the Archer T2UH to work | 16:38 |
| myraft | tomreyn, after running updates , I can't see 130 GB drive. I can see it in GParted | 16:38 |
| ikonia | this all sounds a bit slapdash wookie_ | 16:39 |
| hamid | hello | 16:39 |
| ioria | wookie_, then not useful :þ | 16:39 |
| ikonia | eg: the LL kernel....who really needs that | 16:39 |
| === hamid is now known as Guest53588 | ||
| wookie_ | ioria, I agree. Should i I just install the xenial kernel? | 16:39 |
| ioria | wookie_, why not ? | 16:39 |
| wookie_ | ioria, so I guess I just do "sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-core-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-xenial libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts-xenial "? | 16:40 |
| ioria | wookie_, yes, but reboot your machine with the 3.13.106 | 16:40 |
| wookie_ | ioria, ok brb | 16:40 |
| ioria | oh, i hope it's not using amd | 16:41 |
| tomreyn | myraft: which one was the 130 GB drive again? sda1? | 16:42 |
| myraft | tomreyn, yeah that was the one where all the documents etc was | 16:42 |
| tomreyn | myraft: so your old linux installation, right | 16:42 |
| myraft | I don't mind deleting it... since I think I ahvee a back | 16:42 |
| myraft | correct | 16:42 |
| tomreyn | myraft: is it not mounted in ~/sda1 ? | 16:43 |
| myraft | tomreyn, not that I can see | 16:43 |
| wookie_ | ioria, say a prayer. Here we go | 16:43 |
| tomreyn | myraft: nautilus ~/sda1 | 16:43 |
| ioria | wookie_, what video card do you have ? | 16:43 |
| tomreyn | myraft: ^ type this in a terminal | 16:44 |
| myraft | tomreyn, Unable to find the requested file. | 16:44 |
| myraft | It was there on the first bootup, then run updates and now it is gone. i can see it on gparted | 16:44 |
| wookie_ | ioria, how do I find out? | 16:45 |
| myraft | brb | 16:45 |
| ioria | wookie_, lspci | grep VGA | 16:45 |
| myraft | tomreyn, brb | 16:45 |
| wookie_ | ioria, VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Richland [Radeon HD 8550G] | 16:45 |
| ioria | wookie_, stop, then | 16:45 |
| ioria | wookie_, lspci -k | grep VGA -A2 | grep driver | 16:46 |
| wookie_ | ioria, Kernel driver in use: radeon | 16:47 |
| ioria | wookie_, the point is that on the xenial hwe you can't use proprietary amd (fglrx) | 16:48 |
| ledeni | wookie_, what is lspci | grep Wireless | 16:48 |
| wookie_ | ioria, ah ok. I understand | 16:48 |
| ioria | wookie_, you can only use radeon, if for you is ok, go on | 16:48 |
| john_rambo | I am trying to create a DIVX disk .... I am using DEVEDE ....After adding the files when I click forward nothing happens | 16:49 |

| wookie_ | oh | 16:49 |
| wookie_ | whoops | 16:49 |
| noone33 | now I think i have to reinstall the previous driver | 16:49 |

| captainNoob | hi good fellows | 16:52 |
| curlyears | heigh hough | 16:53 |
| captainNoob | after few hours i cant find ansawer to my question | 16:54 |
| wookie_ | ioria, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23688640/ I guess I am ready for "make install" | 16:55 |
| captainNoob | right now, im chaigin windows servers to ubuntu ones | 16:55 |
| ioria | wookie_, yep | 16:55 |
| captainNoob | but i cant seem to find any other s/w option than iscsi | 16:55 |
| curlyears | I am trying to install a 3D CAD package, and the installl runs into a line that emits: Can't open directory <whatever> access denied. Weird thing is, I am running it in sudo | 16:56 |
| captainNoob | like even ata over ethernet, or plain nfs | 16:56 |
| Prelude2004c | hey guys.. running ubuntu 14 and i just installed ispconfig and whatever.. Setup a few sites but when i am trying to run it, javascript doesn't seem to be loading | 16:56 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: what are you talking about | 16:56 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: just ask a question | 16:56 |
| Prelude2004c | is there something i can do to enable javascript on server ? i am running apachd2 | 16:56 |
| Prelude2004c | is there something i can do to enable javascript on server ? i am running apache2 | 16:56 |
| ikonia | Prelude2004c: ispconfig = unsupported | 16:56 |
| ikonia | Prelude2004c: javascript is client side | 16:56 |
| Prelude2004c | i would think so.. very odd... two computers are doing the same thing :( | 16:57 |
| wookie_ | ioria, if I restart my computer, how do I make it load the currently kernel as default? | 16:57 |
| ikonia | Prelude2004c: you would think so what ? | 16:57 |
| ioria | wookie_, removing the 316 one ... but first test your dongle, i'd say | 16:57 |
| ioria | wookie_, you need to reboot on the 3.13.106 of couse | 16:58 |
| wookie_ | ioria, ok | 16:58 |
| wookie_ | ioria, ill be right back then | 16:58 |
| ioria | oki | 16:58 |
| captainNoob | ansawering to ikonia: i cant seem to find any plain standard than iscsi | 16:59 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: standard for what ? | 16:59 |
| anders__ | Can I check if my inxtallation uses hardware or software rendering? | 16:59 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: iscsi isn't a standard | 16:59 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: unless I'm not understanding what you're asking | 16:59 |
| captainNoob | i got job to move to light terminals | 17:00 |
| captainNoob | means no hdd | 17:00 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: ok ? | 17:00 |
| captainNoob | and im being forced to iscsi quite, couse i dont see option of mounting like /var on nfs share | 17:01 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: are you asking for options to make diskless clients ? | 17:01 |
| captainNoob | i quite dont understand why remote install is limited to such wierd way\ | 17:02 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: what ? | 17:02 |
| captainNoob | ok... lets say i have 100 machines | 17:03 |
| captainNoob | each of them require me now to manualny fix fstab and make new nfs connections | 17:03 |
| captainNoob | including time to setup them | 17:03 |
| ikonia | that seems a very bad idea | 17:04 |
| wookie_ | ioria, IT WORKS!!!! | 17:04 |
| captainNoob | any better one? | 17:04 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: are your machines diskless installs or do you just want /var to be on a remote server ? | 17:05 |
| captainNoob | if my problem was var on remote i wouldnt even bother thinking | 17:05 |
| ioria | wookie_, how is going ? | 17:05 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: you'd be really helpful if you could answer the question I ask rather than a random comment | 17:06 |
| wookie_ | ioria, it seems to be working well | 17:06 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: are your machines diskless installs or do you just want /var to be on a remote server ? | 17:06 |
| ioria | wookie_, ok | 17:06 |
| captainNoob | like i said, all machine are diskless other than SAN providing pxe | 17:06 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: san providing PXE ? | 17:07 |
| ikonia | SAN is a disk device, not a pxe device | 17:07 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: are you trying to make full diskless installs ? | 17:07 |
| wookie_ | ioria, how do I remove the 3.16 kernels from my grub menu? I would like for ubuntu to use this kernel as default now | 17:07 |
| ikonia | or are you using remote LUNS from a san | 17:07 |
| ioria | wookie_, uname -r ? | 17:07 |
| wookie_ | ioria, 3.13.0-106-generic | 17:07 |
| captainNoob | no, no luna for boot, plain dhcp and tftp | 17:08 |
| ikonia | no luna for boot ? | 17:08 |
| captainNoob | i ust lost hope getting any help here, its helpdestk | 17:08 |
| ioria | wookie_, can you paste dpkg -l | grep linux-image | grep ^ii | 17:08 |
| ikonia | captainNoob: you're not getting help because you're not actually stating a problem | 17:08 |
| anders__ | The ssd disk I am booting from is so slow, can I check if it uses usb 3 or not? | 17:08 |
| ikonia | anders__: usb = slow | 17:08 |
| ikonia | anders__: so don't expect anywhere near SSD performance from the disk on the end | 17:09 |
| anders__ | Even usb 3? | 17:09 |
| ikonia | anders__: yes | 17:09 |
| anders__ | Its a usb SSD | 17:09 |
| anders__ | oh, ok | 17:09 |
| anders__ | Hm, there is a card reader on the computer, can I boot up from the card reader? | 17:09 |
| wookie_ | ioria, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23688788/ | 17:09 |
| ikonia | anders__: depends on your bios | 17:09 |
| anders__ | I am not sure I can find the card inside that drive however, its kind of sealed | 17:10 |
| ioria | wookie_, first sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.16.0-30-generic | 17:10 |
| Sean_McG | is there a good hardware support channel on freenode? | 17:10 |
| ikonia | ##hardware | 17:10 |
| Sean_McG | cool | 17:10 |
| wookie_ | ioria, done | 17:11 |
| ioria | wookie_, sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.13.0-49-generic | 17:12 |
| wookie_ | ioria, shouldn't I remove the 3.16 low latency first? | 17:13 |
| ioria | wookie_, after that, yes but you just need 2 kern (106, and 101) | 17:13 |
| anders__ | If I install ubuntu alongside windows 10, it will be llke a large file with the linux fs? | 17:13 |
| ioria | wookie_, 49 not needed | 17:14 |
| wookie_ | ok I just did the one you said, I didn't do the 3.16 low latency yet | 17:14 |
| ikonia | anders__: no, it will be a partition | 17:14 |
| ikonia | !install | anders__ | 17:14 |

| sasser | dont dual boot just scrap windows | 17:14 |
| ikonia | sasser: he can dual boot if he wants | 17:15 |
| ikonia | some people need windows | 17:15 |
| sasser | for | 17:15 |
| ikonia | for what ? | 17:15 |
| wookie_ | sasser, Some video-games. Some programs are better on Windows and are easier to install on windows. | 17:15 |
| sasser | use wine if you have to | 17:15 |
| ikonia | wine is not a solution | 17:16 |
| sasser | been 100 percent windows free for like 2 years now, not long but its a good start | 17:16 |
| sasser | :) | 17:16 |
| ikonia | sasser: bully for you - not everyone can do that | 17:16 |
| ikonia | sasser: people have different needs and requirements | 17:17 |
| sasser | when i get on windows i about puke | 17:17 |
| ikonia | sasser: then you're stupid | 17:17 |
| wookie_ | ioria, should i do sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.16.0-031600-lowlatency | 17:17 |
| sasser | maybe | 17:17 |
| ikonia | if using an operating system makes you puke | 17:17 |
| ioria | wookie_, 49 removed ? | 17:17 |
| ikonia | sasser: you understand it's not 1999 - it's not "cool" to just slam microsoft products ? | 17:17 |
| anders__ | Isnt installing alongside windows 10 meaning that it will share the fs with win10 | 17:17 |
| ikonia | it's not a badge of honour | 17:17 |
| sasser | the imagary, words, everything about win32 makes me puke | 17:17 |
| sasser | windows ruined my life i will bash it all i want | 17:18 |

| wookie_ | ioria, ugh. I can't remember. I think I used dkpg somehow | 17:19 |
| ioria | wookie_, ok, lets try sudo pat-get purge linux-image-3.16.0-031600-lowlatency and keep an eye on errors | 17:20 |

| wookie_ | ioria, all done | 17:23 |
| lugarius | sasser: I am windows free since I was 12, I am 18 now | 17:23 |
| ioria | wookie_, ok bookmark this page, 'cause when your kern will be updated, you'll need to rebuild the module | 17:24 |
| wookie_ | ioria, I bookmarked it | 17:24 |
| ioria | wookie_, ok | 17:24 |
| wookie_ | ioria, am I all set now? :) | 17:24 |
| ioria | wookie_, guess so | 17:25 |

| myraft | tomreyn, had to drop out for a bit. Tried sudo mount ~/sda1 , says can't fine /home/<USER>/sda1 in /etc/fstab | 17:28 |
| yuken | myraft, forgive me if I missed anything, but what he is looking for is /dev/sda1, most likely | 17:30 |
| yuken | not ~/sda1, which points to /home/user/sda1 | 17:30 |
| linux769 | hello, was hoping to get some help with mdadm / Linux raid | 17:30 |
| myraft | yuken, thanks that is what i figured. But getting the same eror. I am now modifying /etc/fstab with the UUID | 17:31 |
| linux769 | i originally built my raid using the whole disk (no partitions). I have a drive that has failed and need to replace it. But all the instructions on found online show how to replace using partitions | 17:31 |
| yuken | I have no clue how to help there :p. SOmeone else should get to you, hopefully. | 17:31 |
| linux769 | do I have to do anything to prep my new disk before adding? | 17:31 |
| ikonia | linux769: you just replace the partition with the device | 17:32 |
| tomreyn | myraft: we placed an entry in your /etc/fstab earlier which was intended to enable you to mount /dev/sda1 (referenced by its block device uuid) to ~/sda1/ | 17:32 |
| linux769 | ikonia: like this? mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --add /dev/sdc | 17:32 |
| tomreyn | ...using the mount ~/sda1 command | 17:32 |
| ikonia | linux769: if it's set, yes | 17:32 |
| linux769 | ikonia: what do you mean by if it is set? | 17:33 |
| ikonia | linux769: if thats the right meta device and the right physical device and you've removed the failed disk from the array | 17:33 |
| linux769 | ikonia: ahh ok | 17:34 |
| linux769 | ikonia: is it possible to partition this drive and add it that way? or can you not mix whole device with partitions? I ask because I plan to replace all the drives with bigger drives (this replacement is larger) | 17:34 |
| myraft | tomreyn, not quite. I missed the line that was supposed to it (which I found scrolling back). | 17:34 |
| myraft | tomreyn, I see u sent this - mkdir -p $HOME/sda1; sudo cp -p /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.orig; blkid /dev/sda1 | cut -d' ' -f2 | tr -d '"' | xargs -i echo '{}' $HOME/sda1 ext4 user,users 0 2 | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab >/dev/null, but I missed it. | 17:35 |
| tomreyn | myraft: correct, that's it. | 17:35 |
| myraft | infact I copied it down, but the sysetm was running upgrades and rebooted without doing it. | 17:35 |
| tomreyn | all by itself! | 17:36 |
| tomreyn | :-P | 17:36 |
| myraft | tomreyn, nah all by my me not paying attention. | 17:36 |
| ikonia | linux769: you could partition it | 17:37 |
| linux769 | ikonia: so its ok to mix. Awesome. Thanks so much for your help ikonia. | 17:38 |
| myraft_ | tomreyn, I am now connected from the newly built machine | 17:38 |
| myraft_ | that way I don't ahve to go back and forth | 17:38 |
| wookie_ | ioria, Is the bit-rate listed in wavemon the speed of the connection? I'm assuming that is what that means | 17:38 |
| bebe | anyone know which program uses this icon ?? http://i.imgur.com/2cvfrMK.jpg | 17:39 |
| ioria | wookie_, you can see that in iwconfig, iirc | 17:39 |
| tomreyn | myraft_: that's a good plan. you can also use pastebinit now and just copy and paste the urls | 17:40 |
| myraft_ | tomreyn, this is what the URL for gparted is ; http://imgur.com/a/jJSzE | 17:40 |
| tomreyn | ...and commands (in the other direction) | 17:40 |
| wookie_ | ioria, ah I see, so thats probably the max speed the card can handle right? | 17:41 |
| tomreyn | myraft_: ok. are you still trying to access the old disk or does it work now? | 17:41 |
| ioria | wookie_, well not a wifi expert, maybe ask in #networking | 17:41 |
| myraft_ | tomreyn, tyring to access the old disk | 17:42 |

| ioria | wookie_, this is a good link https://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-find-out-wireless-network-speed-signal-strength.html | 17:43 |
| tomreyn | myraft_: if you haven't or prefer not to, you can try to just start nautilus and look at which disks it shows. you may be able to mount it this way. | 17:43 |
| myraft_ | tomreyn, was about to. nautilus does not show it. fstab has no reference to it. | 17:44 |
| lloydng | is there a filipino here? | 17:45 |
| lloydng | or chinese maybe? | 17:47 |

| deiks | hi, need help about changing resolution for double displays, i've tried adding with xrandr, newmode, addmode, additonal modules, installation pack from website, but still unsucessfully. | 17:50 |

| tomreyn | mycraft: okay, i'm convinced, sorry. when you click on 'Home' there, then on sda1, what do you see? | 17:52 |
| tomreyn | mycraft: Home on the left column, with the house icon | 17:52 |
| === nathan is now known as leaftype | ||

| deiks | also getting that display is urecognized while in "Display" | 17:55 |
| tomreyn | myraft_: can you do this on a terminal: ls -la ~/sda1/ | 17:56 |
| myraft_ | tomreyn, can I change fstab to do it something like this | 17:56 |
| myraft_ | tomreyn, says no such file or directory | 17:56 |
| tomreyn | myraft_: if you ran the command you quoted earlier (i dont think you ever said you did) it should be there | 17:57 |
| tomreyn | *Never | 17:57 |
| myraft_ | tomreyn, I did not run the command. That was a mistake on my part | 17:57 |

| myraft_ | tomreyn, you said you would prefer that I don't. Sure I will run it now. but in mind fstab has changed has no reference to old . What I am trying now is this : http://imgur.com/a/jJSzE | 17:59 |
| L30 | thanks | 17:59 |
| myraft_ | tomreyn, ran the command and now it shows ~/sda1 . Please note 0 files | 18:01 |
| tomreyn | myraft_: you are right, i said so, sorry. it's good that you ran it now, though, since it didn't work without. please run this now: mount ~/sda1/; ls -la ~/sda1/ | 18:03 |
| tomreyn | myraft_: does it show the files now? if so, nautilus should also show them now | 18:04 |
| chinmay_ | 12 | 18:04 |
| myraft_ | tomreyn, it does , it does | 18:05 |
| tomreyn | myraft_: and those will be available after reboot, too | 18:05 |
| tomreyn | myraft_: what we setup earlier with the long command line is that /dev/sda1 (referenced by its block device UUID rather than the name "/dev/sda1" - which could under some situations point elsewhere) is mounted to /home/<yourusername>/sda1 automatically on boot. | 18:07 |
| boodllebat | should i let ubuntu choose partition alongside my windows or i should give partition manually ? | 18:08 |

| BluesKaj | boodllebat, make sure you are in UEFI mode and not legacy | 18:12 |
| boodllebat | leaftype: i have 1 TB of space so i left 240 gigs unallocated and rest i gave to windows 10 | 18:12 |
| boodllebat | BluesKaj: yes i am in UEFI i never disabled UEFI to go back to legecy | 18:12 |
| boodllebat | BluesKaj: do i need to install efibootmanager as i'm done installing ? | 18:13 |

| leaftype | boodllebat, I'm trying to find confirmation, but for some reason I thought they switched to a swapfile by default | 18:15 |
| ikonia | boodllebat: the #ubuntu-ops channel can also help | 18:15 |
| BluesKaj | boodllebat, yes, i assume you need to save the efibootmanager partition,but not sure whether grub replaces it or not | 18:15 |
| boodllebat | ikonia: do i need to install efibootmanager as i'm done installing ? | 18:15 |

| sruli | tomreyn: i need sudo ... was thinking of using lvm, questions is how long should it take to revert changes if the session has changed ~1gb of files? | 18:30 |
| tomreyn | sruli: there is no native mechanism for resetting all of ubuntu upon reboot (that i'm aware of). what's the greater goal there? | 18:30 |
| boodllebat | Yes completeted installation :D | 18:30 |
| boodllebat | everything working fine | 18:30 |

| boodllebat | BluesKaj: thanks | 18:31 |
| ioria | boodllebat, you're wlcm | 18:31 |
| BluesKaj | boodllebat, np | 18:31 |
| tomreyn | sruli: lvm snapshotting would probably be the way to go there. there more oyu can limit the locations where retores need to take place, the better in term sof performance, time to restore. | 18:32 |
| sruli | tomreyn: i guess almost all of the changes will be in /home/ before i start messing with it if anyone can give a ballpark figure as a guide for how long should it take to revert changes if the session has changed ~1gb of files? | 18:33 |
| anli | I seem to not be able to switch from unity to gnome-session-flashback, I can pick it, but when logged in, its unity anyway | 18:34 |
| tomreyn | sruli: how long it would take to restore a previous snapshot after a given amount of data (1 gb) has changed depends much on the speed of the storage media. it would probably be close to instant on a RAM disk, on a hard disk it could take a minute or some minutes. there are other, less impacting factors which matter, too. | 18:35 |
| deiks | how to avoid problems about "Unknown Display" | 18:35 |
| sruli | tomreyn: is it possible to use lvm in reverse? basically writing new data to snapshot and discard on shutdown, therby avoiding the need to revert | 18:36 |
| tomreyn | sruli: but this is somewhat of a theoretic discussion unless you can come up with a way to automate it, i guess. and i'm not aware of one (though i imagine such can very well exist). | 18:36 |
| === schiggn is now known as koffeinfriedhof | ||

| Backwards | Ikonia thanks for asking but, I have scoured the entire internet and every website has something different that doesn't work with the nexus website. | 20:12 |
| ikonia | nexus website ? | 20:12 |
| ikonia | what has that got to do with anything | 20:12 |
| Backwards | Ikonia I meant by nexus that the next website visited is more confusing that the third for forth website. | 20:13 |
| ikonia | Backwards: so whats your actual problem | 20:13 |
| Backwards | Above I asked if anyone has encountered working with Anope or Inspircd2 and has had any issues with their actual Ubuntu box i.e., UNIX box. | 20:15 |
| ikonia | Backwards: what is the problem YOU have | 20:15 |
| ikonia | not what others have had | 20:15 |
| Backwards | I compiled Anope which is "Chanserv" on my server and when I read the directives the people who wrote the directives didn't properly word the instructions in a basic way for someone new to it. | 20:17 |
| ikonia | why are you compiling things | 20:17 |
| sruli | tomreyn: yes i saw that one, same as the rest, no instructions on how to achieve it | 20:17 |
| ikonia | are there no ubuntu packages | 20:17 |

| ikonia | Anonymous2016: stop please | 20:17 |
| tomreyn | sruli: lvm is redhat technology, and they like not to document things too well publically so they can sell consulting hours. | 20:18 |
| Backwards | Ikonia, the instructions was to download the tar.gz file and compile it based upon if your machine was a 32 bit or 64 bit. | 20:18 |
| ikonia | Backwards: the easy way to approach this is to use an IRC server that is packaged in the ubuntu repo | 20:18 |

| sruli | tomreyn: lvm2 has been around for years, just spent more then an hour searching the net, apart form the 20 articles stating how amazing it is that you can achieve this with lvm2, cant find anything explaing how to do it | 20:19 |
| ikonia | Backwards: you're not ansking clear questions | 20:19 |
| ikonia | Backwards: what is the problem YOU currently have | 20:19 |
| Backwards | I was asking if anyone has installed Anope with Inspircd2 | 20:20 |
| ikonia | Backwards: why ? | 20:20 |
| ikonia | Backwards: are you having a problem with it ? | 20:20 |
| OerHeks | Backwards, you state you have it working, but ask for anyone with issues? | 20:20 |
| tomreyn | sruli: thanks for confirming what i just said. still, it's not a super spoecial use case, and seems quite simple really. you create a snapshot, theny ou write to the snapshot. | 20:20 |
| Backwards | My IRCD server works just fine. | 20:21 |
| EriC^^ | Backwards: install the ubuntu package instead of compiling | 20:21 |

| tomreyn | charybdis + atheme > inspircd + anope IMO, but ymmv | 20:22 |
| sruli | tomreyn: how do i write to the snapshot instead of the original? in standard snapshot case it will write new data to original, i am not sure but it might only be a switch that i need.. | 20:22 |
| tomreyn | sruli: you mount the snapshot device, and write to it? | 20:23 |

| tomreyn | sruli: i.e. you use it like any other block device / file system. | 20:24 |
| EriC^^ | Backwards: stick with the ubuntu packages and you'll also get updates whenever the maintainer releases them and ubuntu picks them up | 20:24 |
| sruli | tomreyn: doesnt help, what if for example i do apt dist-upgrade? will that write to original or snapshot | 20:25 |
| EriC^^ | and just "man <program>" to read about how to use stuff | 20:25 |
| tomreyn | sruli: depends on where you mount stuff, i guess | 20:25 |
| Backwards | EriC^^ I usually do an apt-get install <package> but I have reservations on whether the package is reliable from the Repositories. | 20:26 |
| EriC^^ | Backwards: what reservations | 20:26 |
| sruli | tomreyn: if i dismount the original and mount that snapshot i wont really have a os will i? | 20:26 |
| Backwards | Not all packages are up to date. | 20:26 |
| EriC^^ | Backwards: that's true | 20:26 |
| ikonia | Backwards: why is that a problem | 20:26 |
| EriC^^ | Backwards: the security issues are up to date though usually | 20:27 |
| Backwards | You can install a new install and then use sudo apt-get update and it retro-grades the package. | 20:27 |
| EriC^^ | so it's mainly just features and support | 20:27 |
| ikonia | Backwards: no it doesn't | 20:27 |
| ikonia | Backwards: what is the problem you have come to this channel for ? | 20:27 |
| EriC^^ | ikonia: he needs help on the directives used for compiling his chanserv stuff | 20:28 |
| ikonia | EriC^^: ahhh, well done, I'd not got that from him | 20:28 |
| ikonia | the answer is "use the package | 20:28 |
| ikonia | if you want your own custom stuff - you should be able to build it | 20:28 |
| Backwards | Ikonia I wanted to hear some human voices rather than search websites. I don't mind being corrected if I am doing something not right. | 20:28 |
| ikonia | Backwards: then use the ubuntu provided packages | 20:28 |
| EriC^^ | Backwards: i think asking in the forum or channel for the specific package would get you more responses | 20:30 |

| k00l3th4n | Does anyone have experience with windows managers here? | 20:31 |
| ikonia | k00l3th4n: just ask the real question | 20:32 |
| k00l3th4n | I'm using Mate and after an upgrade it stopped working. What is the first step to resolve this issue? | 20:32 |
| EriC^^ | k00l3th4n: stopped working how? | 20:32 |
| ikonia | k00l3th4n: you'll need to describe better than "stopped workig" | 20:33 |
| k00l3th4n | As in the entire windows manager stopped working. There are no window borders. | 20:33 |
| k00l3th4n | I'm currently on ParrotOS with the Mate DE. | 20:34 |
| Backwards | k00l3th4n Your first mistake is that you perhaps did not do a system backup which Windows has a System Restore. Always use: System Restore Point before any installation. Then you will be able to restore your Windows box as it was before installing anything. | 20:34 |
| k00l3th4n | You can make a restore point for linux? | 20:35 |
| Backwards | Never install anything without backups. | 20:35 |
| k00l3th4n | Please point me in the right directions to get familar with this method. I always backup my /home before an upgrade but not the system. | 20:36 |
| ioria | lol | 20:36 |
| Backwards | Yes. Windows is not Linux but if you create a mirror image of the hard drive, you can back up anything. | 20:36 |
| k00l3th4n | I'm not using Windows. I'm using Linux... Not a VM either. | 20:37 |
| EriC^^ | k00l3th4n: does it work if you try to create a new user? | 20:37 |
| k00l3th4n | EriC^^: Let me try real quick. | 20:37 |
| Backwards | One method is using my favorite VBOX by SunMicrosystems. You can make any stupid mistake or anything and you can clone the original and experiment with it. You can put any OS on VBOX. I recommend using that method first. | 20:39 |
| Backwards | VBOX is free. | 20:40 |
| k00l3th4n | EriC^^: It doesn't work when i create a new user. Also, in the 'windows' settings it says windows manager is upsupported. | 20:40 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, what is this Parrot os ? | 20:41 |
| === tlyu_ is now known as tlyu | ||
| Backwards | If you get that error message it may mean that you don't have Administrator permissions. | 20:41 |
| k00l3th4n | ioria: It's a pentesting distro like kali. | 20:41 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, i see | 20:42 |
| k00l3th4n | ioria: it's a great distro too. it's a new distro so there are bugs | 20:42 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, of course | 20:43 |
| k00l3th4n | Backwards: I don't like using VMs. This build in my main rig | 20:43 |
| k00l3th4n | ioria: You should check it out. Kali is great too, but parrotos has the mate de. | 20:44 |
| Backwards | When there are bugs there are error messages. Using VM an I am not referrring to VMware. VBOX is a great way to experiment and solve your issues before installing an OS or kernel on a Hard Box. | 20:44 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, i see Mate it's the default de | 20:44 |
| k00l3th4n | Backwards: I know what you mean. I haven't had any issues until now with this distro. I think I'm just gonna reinstall. | 20:46 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, try (if you have it) the Guest account then check you video driver, then your environment variables | 20:47 |
| k00l3th4n | Is there a method to backup an entire linux system with restore points... like windows? | 20:47 |
| blackflow | virtualbox taints the kernel and "voids the warranty", and if you have kernel issues with vboxdrv present, you're on your own. it's also now owned by Oracle which says a lot about it. if you want quality linux native virtualization, use KVM. | 20:47 |

| === RebelAngel is now known as mewe | ||
| === mewe is now known as meiweh | ||
| k00l3th4n | ioria: It's not a driver issue or anything like that. It has to do with the default windows manager not being supported anymore. This update just came out today so there havne't been bug reports yet. I did a blind dist-upgrade and something went wrong. I was just wondering if there was a way to reconfigure the default windows manager. | 20:49 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, which is in your case ? | 20:50 |
| ioria | openbox | 20:50 |
| ioria | ? | 20:50 |
| k00l3th4n | ioria: marco | 20:51 |
| Backwards | k00l3th4n Backing up your Linux box is easy. Create an ISO disk which is Read/Writeable and you can do that or just burn an IMAGE of your hard drive. | 20:51 |
| blackflow | Backwards: stop giving out stupid advice | 20:51 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, so this is incorrect ? https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=parrotsecurity | 20:51 |

| slicktux | why not rsync / | 20:52 |
| Backwards | Backflow, sorry for saying this but what you said was stupid. I am a professional Data Recovery Expert. | 20:53 |
| slicktux | depending on how yer backing up and what. . . I back up /home/user to an external HDD. . . | 20:53 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, i see mate and openbox as defaults | 20:53 |
| Backwards | I get paid $300.00/hour for what I do. | 20:54 |
| nedstark | I am a professional DJ, but i give financial advise on the side | 20:54 |
| slicktux | if it is the whole OS then make replcate partitions, sda*, and rsync -aHAX /dev/sda /dev/sdb | 20:54 |
| blackflow | Backwards: good luck with that, meanwhile stop giving bad advice here. | 20:54 |
| k00l3th4n | ioria: that's weird when I went to deconf the default was marco | 20:54 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, weird, yes | 20:54 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, lets try ubuntu :þ | 20:54 |
| k00l3th4n | ioria: So how do I change it to openbox. I install openbox and changed it in deconf but still no windows manager. | 20:55 |
| ioria | k00l3th4n, you can surely remove any de you installed, and reinstall it properly | 20:56 |
| blackflow | k00l3th4n: Parrot OS doesn't have much to do with Ubuntu, or am I wrong? | 20:56 |
| ioria | not you're not | 20:57 |
| blackflow | so it's kinda offtopic here, no? | 20:57 |
| k00l3th4n | Backwards: I think it is debian based. | 20:57 |
| tomreyn | sruli: i ahven't tested it, but i guess you can either mount or bind-mount the snapshot on top of the original mount. it's probably safer to mount elsewhere and chroot into it. | 20:57 |
| k00l3th4n | Backwards: Yes, it kinda is. But I'm talking about the Mate DE so it kinda does. | 20:58 |
| Backwards | k00l3th4n If you want you can msg me and I can help you. | 20:58 |
| ikonia | k00l3th4n: I'd advise against that | 20:58 |
| onla | is there some nice way to mvoe files between devices in LAN if I have problems mounting phone to linux | 20:58 |
| blackflow | k00l3th4n: Mate DE is not Ubuntu specific product. Ubuntu MATE is Ubuntu with MATE desktop envrionment, if that's what you were thinking. | 20:58 |
| k00l3th4n | I'm gonna try a few things and reboot. I'll be back guys. Thanks. | 20:58 |
| Backwards | Ikonia, what is your problem. You have a puffed up attitude about yourself. As if you are the foremost authority on everything. Take a break. Stop insulting people you don't know. | 20:59 |

| waltman | I got through a server install and decided I wanted to redo it with a different partitioning scheme. But now when it offers to partition the drives, the SSDs aren't even listed! | 21:11 |
| waltman | WTF? | 21:11 |
| waltman | And if I don't do it this way, how can I resize the filesystem on my root partition? | 21:11 |
| Andy80 | hi, probably an hot question, but do you have any ETA about the libphp-phpmailer patched release, please? | 21:13 |
| tomreyn | waltman: you may need to reboot and redo the installation from scratch, since making the linux kernel (or that of any other OS) update partition tables during runtime is not guaranteed to succeed. | 21:13 |
| tomreyn | waltman: and this *might* be why ssd's can no longer be repartitioned. that's just a wild guess, though. you could show a screne shot. | 21:14 |
| tomreyn | *screen shot | 21:14 |
| waltman | It never did ask me to confirm its default partitioning scheme during the initial install. | 21:14 |
| blackflow | Andy80: you ask because of CVE-2016-10033? | 21:14 |
| waltman | tomreyn: I'm TRYING to reinstall, but it's not listing the drives I used. | 21:15 |
| tomreyn | Andy80: there are never any ETAs for patches. | 21:15 |
| blackflow | Andy80: the package is in universe, so it's community effort, meaning no idea when it's gonna be patched, and if :) | 21:15 |
| tomreyn | waltman: hmm this is unusual indeed. and you didn not make any other changes in the mentime, such as changing bios / raid configurations etc? | 21:16 |
| waltman | no. | 21:16 |
| waltman | All I did was run apt-get update/dist-upgrade. | 21:17 |
| tomreyn | waltman: can you spawn a shell (escape to main menu of installer, select last or last but one option), and run lsblk? | 21:17 |
| waltman | lsblk: not found | 21:18 |
| tomreyn | waltman: if lsblk doesn't work, do "cat /proc/partitions" instead | 21:18 |
| waltman | it's showing sda | 21:18 |
| waltman | and a whole screenful of other things | 21:19 |
| tomreyn | waltman: you said SSD*S*, as in plural, so i guess sda is rather the device your installer runs from | 21:20 |
| waltman | yeah, they're hardware raid 0 | 21:20 |
| tomreyn | waltman: maybe your SSDs are actually NVMes and not SSDs? | 21:20 |
| waltman | SVM? | 21:20 |
| waltman | NVM? | 21:20 |
| Root1204 | hello | 21:20 |
| waltman | they're 2 physical SSDs. | 21:21 |
| tomreyn | waltman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NVM_Express | 21:21 |
| blackflow | waltman: I do have to ask.... you're running SSDs in Raid 0? You're aware of what tha means for data durability? | 21:21 |
| waltman | No. | 21:21 |
| waltman | So I *don't* want to mirrow them? | 21:21 |
| waltman | mirror | 21:22 |
| blackflow | waltman: you do, but that's Raid 1, not 0 | 21:22 |
| tomreyn | waltman: okay you need to find out whether sda is the HW RAID over your SSDs or whether its the device the installer is running form. | 21:22 |
| waltman | sorry, let me check. | 21:22 |
| blackflow | 0 doubles the chances of one disk failure blowing your entire data away | 21:22 |
| waltman | Sorry, raid1 | 21:22 |
| blackflow | mkay. :) | 21:22 |
| waltman | I told the bios to boot from "usb hd" just like when I did the initial install. | 21:23 |
| Root1204 | Has anyone install ubuntu on a chromebook without using crouton? | 21:24 |
| waltman | also it's not mounted | 21:24 |
| WeiJunLi | those segfaults are due that _libc_fork assertion? http://dpaste.com/04CVHQY | 21:24 |
| waltman | oh wait, it IS mounted! | 21:24 |
| waltman | it mounted /dev/sda1 on /media | 21:24 |
| waltman | Can I get it to not do that? | 21:25 |
| Ben64 | waltman: i'm confused. what are you trying to do, what is happening | 21:26 |
| waltman | I have 4 drives in this box, 2 250GB SSDs and 2 4TB HDs. The 2 SSDs are hardware raid 1. My bios doesn't support hardware raid for drives that big, so they're just plain old drives right now. I did an install, but I want to redo the partitioning on the SSDs. | 21:29 |
| ikonia | waltman: if it's "bios" I doubt it's hardware raid | 21:29 |
| transhuman | hi i am getting the following error /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmrc: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/modules/libunity-gtk-module.so: undefined symbol: g_settings_new | 21:29 |
| ikonia | it's more likley fakeraid | 21:29 |
| transhuman | anyone know how to fix this on ubuntu 16.04 | 21:29 |
| waltman | bios raid, whatever. | 21:29 |
| ikonia | waltman: it matters | 21:29 |
| ikonia | transhuman: looks like it's incompatible with the version you are running | 21:30 |
| transhuman | seems as if support of g_settings_new is not available in the built in version of libunity-gtk-module.so | 21:30 |
| waltman | But now when I try to reinstall, it's mounting /dev/sda1 (which should be raid'ed with sda2 as /media. | 21:30 |
| transhuman | can i custom compile this libary if so is there directions on doing so | 21:30 |
| waltman | So my only options are to install ubuntu to the 4TB drives. | 21:30 |
| ikonia | transhuman: strongly advised not to | 21:30 |
| ikonia | transhuman: more so without understanding why it's missing, eg: deprecated | 21:31 |
| TheSilentLink | hello | 21:31 |
| waltman | I can undo the raid in the bios if that would be better. | 21:31 |
| ikonia | waltman: it's probably not recognising the fake raid | 21:31 |
| ikonia | (hence why I said fakeraid matters) | 21:31 |
| blackflow | waltman: you always have the option to build the array yourself with mdadm. bios/fakeraid is worst there is. | 21:31 |
| waltman | will the installer do that? | 21:31 |
| blackflow | waltman: no idea, I always do it manually. | 21:32 |
| waltman | Or do I just install to /dev/sda1 and then setup the raid separately? | 21:32 |
| transhuman | I need to solve my current vmware fling console problem with the desktop mouse pointer failing to line after it times out and goes to sleep...the other way to "solve" this problem is to set a timeout value for the vmware fling to infinity but I can't seem to locate this setting either | 21:32 |
| blackflow | waltman: I suppose you can pre-create the mdX devices and use them for the installer to install root and other partitions on | 21:32 |
| ikonia | transhuman: I don't see how setting a timeout will fix a library | 21:33 |
| transhuman | I was hoping the gtk console would be installable to get around this problem | 21:33 |
| transhuman | its too drastically different ways of solving one problem (too different angles) I guess I am stuck | 21:33 |
| waltman | OK, let's see if I can figure out how do undo the raid on this bios... | 21:33 |
| transhuman | the libary is to get the vmrc console working in Ubuntu while the timeout is with the web client | 21:34 |
| tomreyn | waltman: which server hardware and RAID controller is this? | 21:38 |
| Lemon_Haz | i am asking more simple question | 21:39 |
| Lemon_Haz | wich country is this | 21:39 |
| waltman | tomreyn: it's a gigabyte 78lmt motherboard | 21:39 |
| tomreyn | waltman: so its actually not a server hardware platform, and certainly fakeraid | 21:40 |
| tomreyn | waltman: i.e. use software RAID (or no RAID at all) | 21:41 |
| waltman | OK, I think I just turned it off. | 21:44 |
| tomreyn | remote power off but no remote power control? | 21:44 |
| wiggmpk | Anyone wanna help me figure out why vinagre is automatically starting after reboot/login? Nothing showing up in ~/.config/autostart or /etc/xdg/autostart | 21:46 |
| waltman | OK, that fixed it. If I choose "Guided", will it give me a chance to partition the way I want, or just I just choose "manual"? | 21:47 |
| tomreyn | waltman: just manual | 21:47 |
| waltman | ok, thanks | 21:48 |
| wiggmpk | waltman: guided will partion /boot swap and fill up the rest with / | 21:48 |
| waltman | It should really say that then! | 21:48 |
| tomreyn | not much space there, it probably does in some documentation | 21:49 |
| sruli | while doing a update on a new install (16.04) the update process hung, i cancelled it and tried again but i get a error unable to lock /var/lib/dpkg/ i checked with ps for /var/lib/dpkg/ and i get "/usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/debconf/frontend /var/lib/dpkg/infor/cryptsetup.prerm remove" and another line "/bin/sh /var/lib/dpkg/info/cryptsetup.prerm remove" also my file explorer seems mest up, icon images have gone (all dirs look like unrecognised files http://im | 21:49 |
| wiggmpk | waltman: agreed, but I believe it's geared towards the novice that wouldn't necessary care or know how to separate partitions. | 21:49 |
| tomreyn | but it surely would help, i agree | 21:49 |
| waltman | No, what it says is that you'll get a chance to review it, when you really don't. | 21:49 |
| wiggmpk | oh? I thought it showed you what it will write to the table... | 21:50 |
| wiggmpk | been a while | 21:50 |
| waltman | Maybe I missed it the first time. | 21:51 |
| wiggmpk | Is there anywhere else I should look for applications starting automatically other than ~/.config/autostart or /etc/xdg/autostart ...? | 21:52 |
| glowdemon1 | Hi | 21:53 |
| glowdemon1 | Whats the best way to search for packages to install with 'apt'? When I try 'apt list PDO' or 'apt search PDO' I can't find any packages | 21:53 |
| glowdemon1 | Is there a better way or am I doing something wrong? | 21:53 |
| sruli | after a reboot, i get debian grub, cant find my install it seems fs is messed up, what could have caused it? (^) | 21:54 |

| glowdemon1 | Ah. Just noticed I'm in the wrong channel, my computer runs Ubuntu but my Docker container runs Debian, it also may be because I'm in a Docker container | 21:59 |

| eelstrebor | tomreyn, the guest won't see it unless the host mounts it first | 23:22 |
| tomreyn | Guest96434: 666, strange permissions. what's the idea behind that? | 23:22 |
| tomreyn | eelstrebor: not if you pass the cdrom through (but i have not checked whether virtualbox lets you) | 23:23 |
| Guest96434 | I was going to do 777 but it isn't executable so I removed that flag because the remote computer was getting confused when I opened it | 23:23 |
| * eelstrebor asked in #vbox also but no one seems to be awake there | 23:24 | |
| * eelstrebor is wondering if there is an linux app or lib that's missing preventing the dvd from mounting | 23:25 | |
| Zeropedian | any machine learning freaks here? | 23:26 |
| Guest96434 | I seem to have messed up the permissions on this box so much I can't even access my home directory anymore. Time for a reinstall :) | 23:26 |
| eelstrebor | Guest96434, it could be that you need to do a chown on your home directory | 23:27 |
| kk4ewt | or fix it | 23:27 |
| tomreyn | eelstrebor: cdrom/dvd-rom/-rw writer passthrough using virtualbox by example http://askubuntu.com/questions/288288/how-to-enable-the-dvd-writer-passthrough-checkbox-in-virtualbox https://i.stack.imgur.com/W6bMR.png | 23:27 |
| PocketUser | I have a coke addiction! | 23:27 |
| kk4ewt | home is usually 644 | 23:27 |
| PocketUser | Yea 644 | 23:28 |
| Guest96434 | eelstrebor, I did a chown and it didn't fix it. I'll try 644 | 23:28 |
| PocketUser | Cool let us know how you get on with 664 | 23:29 |
| PocketUser | 644* | 23:29 |
| PocketUser | Lol | 23:29 |
| eelstrebor | Guest96434, be sure to make it recursive - but some stuff in the home directory need certain permissions other than 644 - i.e. gnupg files | 23:29 |
| kk4ewt | chmod -cR 644 | 23:30 |
| Guest96434 | Still getting permission denied errors | 23:30 |
| Ben64 | Guest96434: what error | 23:31 |
| kk4ewt | and what was the exact command that you used | 23:31 |
| Guest96434 | Cannot access *: Permission denied | 23:31 |
| PocketUser | Are you sure you're typing it correct? Mine work ok with chmod -cR 644 | 23:31 |
| Guest96434 | sudo chmod -cR 644 /home/webadmin | 23:32 |
| Ben64 | why would you recursively set everything to 644 | 23:32 |
| Ben64 | directories need executable bit set | 23:32 |
| Guest96434 | great now sounds like a good time to reinstall since there's nothing on this vm | 23:32 |
| Guest96434 | still not sure why i can't get ftp working but that'll be a project for another day | 23:33 |
| kk4ewt | Guest96434, is your user webadmin | 23:33 |
| Guest96434 | kk4ewt yes | 23:33 |
| josefig_ | hi all, what have you used in the case you need to read emails on raw and process depending on the contents of emails? I'm using fetchmail to retrieve the emails from an specific email account, but for example if I have any kind of command or notice I would like to create a bash script to do something else, how have you done this before? I know you're the gurus on this :) | 23:33 |
| PocketUser | Oh welcome to the chat josefig!! | 23:34 |
| josefig_ | hi PocketUser, thanks :) | 23:35 |

| trelos | Well, they are destroying the entire planet and have no connection to nature or anything/anyone, so it wouldn't surprise me one bit. Either way, they must be stopped. | 23:38 |
| PocketUser | What's the point in keep changing your nick? Just makes you look at twat! | 23:38 |
| IamKrilcov | can someone help me with dling ubuntu? | 23:39 |
| trelos | The Chabad Lubavitchers, the most powerful and influential group of these world destroyers, believe that gentiles are non-living souls, literally a different and eternally inferior species of soul, literal excrement left over after the creation process, and that the Jews themselves are the only actual living souls, and that they alone are the same quality of substance of the Godhead himself. | 23:39 |
| bazhang | trelos, wrong channel | 23:40 |
| PocketUser | Wtf is trelos banging on about??? | 23:40 |
| Bashing-om | IamKrilcov: What is the problem ? | 23:40 |
| EriC^^ | IamKrilcov: what's up? | 23:40 |
| bazhang | no cursing here PocketUser | 23:40 |
| trelos | In their belief system, in the Zohar for instance, it states clearly that when their messiah comes, all gentiles on the face of the Earth will be be enslaved, as most are already through fractional reserve usurious banking systems and so on, and ultimately all killed, every last one of us, and sent to dwell in hell under the Angel Duma, whoever that is. | 23:40 |
| Zeropedian | anyone editing videos on ubuntu mate? | 23:41 |
| bazhang | Zeropedian, what have you used so far | 23:41 |

| Skeet | Hey guys, am trying to use boot-repair to fix grub problems. Currently had windows 10 and ubuntu dualbooting. Can someone help out? | 23:41 |
| bazhang | IamKrilcov, thats a setting in firefox | 23:42 |
| Zeropedian | i tried everything | 23:42 |
| IamKrilcov | i am using the ubuntu browser. | 23:42 |
| bazhang | Zeropedian, please name some of those | 23:42 |
| Zeropedian | lightworks and kdenlive seems to be the best that linux does offer | 23:42 |
| EriC^^ | IamKrilcov: that browser is comical sort of | 23:42 |
| Zeropedian | lightworks is pretty close to sony vegas pro 12.. | 23:42 |
| IamKrilcov | yea, thank you | 23:43 |
| Zeropedian | but i never used it full time..so i am bit unconfident deleting my windows and switching to ubuntu | 23:43 |
| EriC^^ | it's meant for the ubuntu touch stuff more than anything else i think | 23:43 |
| IamKrilcov | Victory! | 23:44 |
| PocketUser | Sorry! Trelos | 23:46 |
| bazhang | PocketUser, stay on topic here, chit chat elsewhere | 23:46 |
| Guest96434 | Would anyone be willing to take me through a vsftpd setup that gives me write access to /var/www | 23:47 |
| IamKrilcov | can someone direct me to a command line channel? | 23:47 |
| IamKrilcov | I need help with dl'ing shasum generators and using them | 23:47 |
| sjaak | hola | 23:50 |
| tomreyn | IamKrilcov: this channel is, amongst other, about command lines | 23:51 |
| Skeet | Can someone help me repair my grub menu on win10/ubuntu dualboot? Encountering this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/23691239/ | 23:51 |
| tomreyn | IamKrilcov: you can use the sha*sum or openssl commands to generate shasums | 23:52 |
| itsmemario | Hi guys I am having issue. I want to copy information from my log file from the programme "Log", the informtion about "hardware" and "important". I installed multitails but i cannot make it work. any help / app suggestion? | 23:52 |
| PocketUser | I got it to work using chmod 775 /root | 23:53 |
| PocketUser | 644 also works but isn't ideal for /www dir | 23:55 |
| itsmemario | any help please? | 23:56 |

| Skeet | Can someone help me repair my grub menu on win10/ubuntu dualboot? Encountering this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/23691239/ | 23:57 |
| PocketUser | Mario asked for help.... I asked him what help he needed! | 23:57 |
| bazhang | PocketUser, use tabcomplete for the actual nick | 23:57 |
| Guest96434 | Anyone know why I can't write with vsftpd even though i have write enabled in the .conf? | 23:58 |
| itsmemario | PocketUser: I am trying to get a copy of my log report (the same you can find in the "log" application). This app does not let me copy the data. I need to copy the "hardware" log section and the "important" section. Any ideas? | 23:58 |
| IamKrilcov | this is hard | 23:58 |
