MarkB2The initial install has it booting from a flash drive... and apparently the internal flash memory is big enough to hold it all.00:00
CodeMouse92MarkB2: What's the *thing* in question?00:01
MarkB2It's an Intel Joule.00:01
MarkB2Joule 570x.00:01
MarkB2This thing has me running circles.  It's the way Intel ..phrases.. their instructions.00:02
MarkB2I've been at this for three days now.  Yeesh.00:03

MarkB2Please.. I have a request.  Here is a URL to installation instructions for ubuntu on an Intel Joule: https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/start/intel-joule/00:16
bazhangMarkB2, snappy?00:17
MarkB2I am confused between "Ubuntu Core" and "Ubuntu Desktop".00:17
MarkB2bizhang: I am so wrapped around the axle right now...00:17
bazhangMarkB2, #snappy for help with that00:18
MarkB2<sigh>  I've been there.  They see a newbie and start laughing.00:18
bazhangMarkB2, please stop with all the excessive commentary here00:19
bazhangMarkB2, holiday weekends, especially this one, are going to be slower on irc support00:19
MarkB2I'll see if someone on #snappy can give a hand with this.00:20
ralexI just got a lenovo Y700 and im testing ubuntu 16.110. However when i opened a game, the fans didnt seem to turn on. I tried installed lmsensors and fancontrol but the pwnconfig commmand didnt return any pwn-capable sensor modules.00:22
ralextrying to see the howtos for this laptop online and im not finding much.00:23
Kissamosis it possible to install ubuntu on an android device?00:26
bazhangKissamos, there are various guides online00:26
tomreynralex: check the bios settings on fan control / cpu limiting (this is more a ##hardware channel topic), did you run a recent version of sensors-detect and add the kernel modules it suggested? was the CPU temperature actually elevated to a degree where fans would have kicked in?00:27
ralextomreyn, i used the version that exists in the repos...00:28
tomreyni see00:29
tomreynof sensors-detect, i am guessing00:29
ralexoh i didnt see the last part of the output...00:30
ralexthe guide i was using is kindof out of date compared to the version that im using :(00:31
tomreynoften the best guide is the one which comes with the software, also called a 'manual' or 'README'.00:33

pmntuhallo everybody. Do any openvpn experts know, can I setup a a client connection to a server with just a crt file? I'm not sure if I'm chasing a red herring.00:36
Phaneshello00:37
Phaneswhere is the ubuntu maintainer and developer channel00:37
Orxata_hi again!00:37
Orxata_thanks for all your help, btw00:37
tomreynpmntu: crt is short for certificate, AKA a (signed) public key. you would probably (but not necessarily) also need a secret key. it all depends on the server configuration.00:38
pmntuThe dude who set it up is on the other side of the planet and is very bad at responding to emails.00:38
Orxata_I've finally fixed that annoying pi with --set-selections00:38
Orxata_I will never use dpkg again00:38
Orxata_what's the problem?00:39
pmntu@tomreyn cool, so I don't need any additional files potentially?00:39
pmntu@tomreyn +thank you:)00:39
tomreynpmntu: maybe, maybe not. you will need some kind of secret for sure, though. be it a private key or a passphrase. as well as a username and server to login to.00:40

fyrrildoes mkdir automatically create a symlink now?00:41
blomstertjthat was a verification code honestly00:41
tomreynblomstertj: oh right00:41
pmntu@tomreyn I thought just one file probably wouldn't do much by itself. I have the server address. I'll go look at it some more for a bit. Thank you.00:41

leptoneim running ubuntu 16.04 on an M11X netbook. It runds great but gives me a lot of trouble connecting to WIFI networks, sometimes it sees that nextworka nd will connect, sometimes it sees the network but wont connect and some times is doesn't see the network at all.00:46
leptonetoday it just started not seeing or connecting to any wifi networks at all. when i go to System Settings > Network it shows that my machine is in Airplane mode. I'm able to toggle the switch but if i open and close its on Airplan mode when i come back. Also it shows a toggle for Wifi that is switched off . I can click the the toggle and it moves and then immediately moves back to the off position.00:46

leptonehas anyone see this issue before or know how i might go about trouble shooting it?00:47
fyrrilI'm not sure that it hurts anything, I just wanted to know why. Some of the older folders I have are still 1, some are 3,4,5. But all the new ones are 2 for whatever reason.00:49

fyrrilwedgie, https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch01.en.html#_links is what I was given to read earlier maybe I'm misinterpreting it00:53
wedgiefyrril: what does that link have to do with mkdir?00:54
fyrrilwell, very likely nothing00:56
wedgiefyrril: mkdir creates directories. ln creats links00:56
fyrrilwedgie, I had asked about the number column after the drwxrwxrwx, was given that link, and have been looking for reasons they might go together00:57
fyrriltheory of operation I guess00:57
wedgieoh, that's the 2 you were referring to. Wasn't clear from your earlier question00:59
wedgiefyrril: that is the number of links, or directories in side the directory01:00

thorsten11evening all01:10
leptoneim trying to follow this solution which says to run sudo lshw -class network and look to the "product" line to get the model number of my wifi card http://askubuntu.com/questions/762198/16-04-lts-wifi-connection-issues/768268#76826801:10
leptonewhen i run that command and pipe it to 'grep product'01:10
leptonemy output is: product: Centrino Wireless-N 1000 [Condor Peak]01:11
leptoneif i look here: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/centrino/centrino-wireless-n-1000-brief.html01:11
leptonethere is a downloadable PDF that lists a bunch of model numbers for this card01:11
leptone does anyone know how i figure out which one i have on my machine?01:11
leptonedoes it matter if i put the wrong one?01:11
zzo38It seems that Exim is using "mboxo" format while Heirloom-mailx is using "mboxrd" format. How can I make Exim to also use "mboxrd" format?01:20
leptonehow can I find out which Centrino Wireless-N 1000 WiFi card (which for the four possible model numbers) I have on my machine?01:20
zzo38Also, why does it cause a kernel panic when I turn on the printer? It did not used to do that, and I have not changed the operating system.01:22
oaulakhdoes anyone knows about ubuntu bash in windows 10?01:23

tomreynleptone: "8086:0083" and "8086:1325" are your device IDs, searching the web for them (maybe related to Linux / Ubuntu / Debian) should yield some results.01:35
cfoch_nvm01:36

sadnakedhi, im trying to bridge two networks with lubuntu by setting the ipv4 settings of ethernet to "shared to other computers" and plugging a router in there, right now it kind of worked? but i can only access through 1 device, the rest are "trapped" in second router's network03:40
sadnakedi wanted to know if i was going for it the right way or it just fluked-worked and im supposed to be doing it differntly03:40
wedgiesecond router?03:42
wedgiehaving a hard time picturing your setup03:42
sadnakedsorry, lubuntu connects to router 1 wireleslly, then is connected to router 2 with an ethernet cable, device 1 (the one which "just works") is connected wirelesly to router 203:43

sadnakedwedgie i look around and i saw several posts of people who got it working by editing the ipv4 settings, so i went that way, but then i realized that most of them were connecting just 1 device through it, so i figured i should ask here03:51
wedgiesadnaked: not sure. I would expect it to either work for all devices or for none. Only 1 device working seems strange03:51
SweepyofaceDoes anyone know how rdiff-backup will behave if a full backup is restored to the dir it's ran on?03:51
Sweepyofacenot sure the best course of action here03:52
wedgiesadnaked: cause i'm assuming that router2 is natting, so you can't tell the difference between the various source devices by IP anyhow03:52
Sweepyofacewill it just keep working?03:52
sadnakedwedgie its as if there were two different networks going on, for example, from the working device i can't access router 2 admin page, but i can through the others03:55
sadnakedi also nmaped it and they are not showing up there03:55
wedgiesadnaked: do the working device and the non-working devices get IP addresses on the same subnet?03:55
oldocbrown"This is a test, this is only a test. If this had been a real emergency, you would have been creamed by now." - Ziggy03:55
Sweepyofaceany ideas?03:57
sadnakedwedgie, no, non-working devices are getting 192.168.0.* and the working one has a 10.42.0.*, also those directly connected to router 1 have a 192.168.1.*03:58
wedgiesadnaked: well that sounds all wrong.03:59
wedgiewhere's that 10.42.0.x coming from?03:59
wedgiewhat's the IP of your ethernet interface on your lubuntu box?04:00
sadnakedwedgie, i just got into router 2 admin interface, and changed its ip to 192.168.1.2 and deactivated dhcp, now i have internet on all of them but they all have 10.42.0.* ips on the three of them04:02
wedgiesadnaked: so is your lubuntu box providing dhcp?04:02
sadnakedwedgie its 10.42.0.104:02
sadnakedi think it is04:02
wedgieok, so it's all working now?04:03
sadnakedyep, it ended up being a rather stupid question, but you helped me think shit through, is there any way i can have router 1 providing dhcp?04:04
sadnakedthanks a lot04:04
wedgiesadnaked: not without getting more complicated than you probably want to. Quit while you're ahead if it's working :P04:05
sadnakedwedgie lol, if i can access the 192.168.1.* range through the 10.0.42.* devices then im ok, and it seems so, thanks a lot!04:07

TheNH813I installed a new GPU (NVidia GT 740) and games start MUCH slower then with the APU internal graphics. Same texture resolution, etc. Example: Skyrim (On WINE) takes over 40 seconds to load, when it's near instant with the internal graphics.04:18
Guy1524TheNH813: you are using proprietary driver right04:18
TheNH813No. Does it make that much of a difference?04:19
TheNH813It didn't make any difference with the AMD card I use dpreviously.04:19
Guy1524yes, noveau is terribly slow unfortunately04:19
Guy1524yes, noveau is terribly slow unfortunately04:19
Guy1524whoops04:19
TheNH813LOL double posting happens to the best of us. XD04:19
TheNH813Ah well, at least I know the card isn't the issue. Gonna grab proprietary drivers then.04:20
Guy1524anyway, radeon (the open source amd driver) is much closer to proprietary driver speeds04:20
Guy1524however noveau is much worse because nvidia doesn't document their hardware at all04:20

TheNH813Nah, just a misunderstanding I presume.04:21
Ben64don't install drivers from the website04:21
Guy1524to get proprietary drivers, you just install the nvidia-(driver version package)04:21
TheNH813Ah, they actually have a package now?04:22
Guy1524the easiest way to do this is through the additional drivers application04:22
Guy1524its  a default application on ubuntu04:22
TheNH813Last I used proprietary was on 12.04, and it didn't exist int he repos.04:22
Guy1524just search for it04:22
Guy1524ya, its really useful, just select the proprietary option, and click apply changes04:22
TheNH813Nice! They actually made the Additional Drivers application usefull. I see there's a microcode update for my processor too. Might as well switch that option on as well.04:23

kmdude344Quick question, Can I have both LXQT and LXDE installed on the same system and use them independantly or does LXQT take over? Because I have both installed and I only have the option to use LXQT.07:48
xanguakmdude344: how did you install them? I know the Lubuntu-desktop metapackage uninstall lxqt if installed07:49
kmdude344Just the individual DE's themselves, no metapackages or nothing07:50
kmdude344just apt-get install lxde07:50

ToxmiI'm trying to make bootable disk from ubuntu iso: the comand `sudo dd if=~/Desktop/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdc1 bs=4M` boot the device but nothing happen (blank screen) writing to /dev/sdc (instead of sdc1) do not boot at all and go to local OS09:19
lkthomasI am wondering how did those old Unix system survive on leap year ?09:19
lkthomasI mean leap second09:19
Ben64Toxmi: use sdc not sdc109:21
ToxmiBen64: with just sdc it doesn't boot at all09:25
Toxmibut with sdc1 it at least boot (however to a blank screen)09:25
ToxmiI thought it might be iso problem but I get the same results from arch and windows iso as well09:25
ToxmiSo you're saying this is the right way and nothing more is needed: `dd if=TheIso.iso of=/dev/sdc` done09:26
tomreynToxmi: that is my understanding, but i haven't done it in a while. which ISO are you using? which capacity does the USB stick have?09:34

srulitomreyn: sorry i meant http://paste.ubuntu.com/23710436/09:52
_maddysruli: /boot/efi/EFI has "ubuntu", other dirs don't exist09:52
sruli_maddy: thats the problem, the efi partition you have is not the windows one, from your lsblk output i cannot see the efi partition that windows would use, i do not know how windows boots at all!09:55
srulimaybe someone else can help you09:55
tomreynhmm i'm not actually sure, sruli, i'm not so comfortable with EFI booting, try to prevent it whenever possible.09:56
_maddyI did detach my windows hd when I wasn installing ubuntu, (just to make sure it does not mess up my windows booting), so I guess that caused this09:56
srulithe output of your lsblk is not what i would expect .. so i dont know09:56
sruli_maddy: is windows installed in legacy or eufi?09:57
_maddysruli: not sure09:57
_maddyoh well, thanks for trying to help, I will just use bios to select OS for now, and fix it later09:58
tomreyn_maddy: did you make changes to the bios after you last booted windows, and before you noticed windows can no longer be booted (without slecting the boot device at powerup)?09:58
sruli_maddy: wait a moment09:58
_maddytomreyn: no, don't think I did09:59
tomreyn_maddy: since you had the windows devices disconnected when you installed, run: sudo update-grub  # - maybe they're just missing on grub's configuration file.10:00
srulitomreyn: os-prober doesnt find it.. updateing grub wont10:00
_maddytomreyn: I've already run it a few times, it doesn't find the windows10:01
tomreynok, i give up then ;)10:01
_maddybut I can mount the windows partitions on linux just fine and access the files10:01
srulii am sure you have 1 installed as legacy and other as eufi, paste output of "sudo efibootmgr"10:02
tomreynto determine whether you're booting in EFI mode: sudo efibootmgr10:03

tomreynsruli, _maddy: yes this would explain the lack of windows uefi boot records on the uefi nvram storage10:06
sruli_maddy: you wont be able to get grub to see both... both have to be same.. either reinstall ubuntu as grub or reinstall win as uefi.. (i would go for both uefi)10:06
_maddyok, not going to reinstall now, but next time I do it I'll remember this10:07

bhikkhusubhuticryptoswap is the password box thing I get10:45
tomreyndinet: i cannot spot an error on this file, but maybe it's on one of the others. i suggest you move /etc/apache* out of the way (e.g. rename them, or move them to /root/), then üpurge and reinstall all apache2* packages, then diff the default configuration files to your customized ones.10:46
bhikkhusubhutimy idea is to remove the cryptoswap line and put back the line for swap10:46
tomreyndinet: what's strange is that dpkg still knows about apache 2.2 packages, it might suggest that your distribution upgrade did not go well / is not yet complete. you should check using: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -Vf install; sudo apt-get -V dist-upgrade10:48

tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: based on its name, i assume this is backed by a LVM2 logical volume which can be listed using 'lvs'. also, based on the name i assume this is a dm-crypt encrypted block device which is configured in /etc/crypttab, too ?10:54

LinuxNewbie_ok. not suitable for my needs, then.10:57

dinettomreyn: service apache2 start | sh: 0: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory10:59
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: encrypted swap makes sense as part of full disk encryption, if you plan to use this on this system. full disk encryption protects your stored data at rest (switched off or with RAM suspended to disk) against physical access.10:59

ubottuLinuxNewbie_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience11:04
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, I commented the crypto line and then uncommented  the other line for swap as it was before11:04
gxblary!patience11:04
ubottuDon't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/11:04
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, that was my hunch what to do.11:04
LinuxNewbie_I did ask the question, above.11:04
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: in /etc/fstab, replace "/dev/mapper/cryptswap1" by "UUID=8762e5d5-5afa-4a5f-ba7c-c5fae6936ea6"11:04
MonkeyDustLinuxNewbie_  people enter and leave, hit the up arrow to repeat your question11:04
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: okay so you're set11:05
dinettomreyn: thanks for the help, my forhead was starting to bleed11:05
LinuxNewbie_I have Xubuntu installed on my old laptop, which seems to be a bit sluggish. Any other better option?11:05
tomreyndinet: ;) glad you worked it out11:05
LinuxNewbie_Could debian with xfce be a little faster than Xubuntu?11:06
sruliLinuxNewbie_: have you tried lubuntu?11:06
LinuxNewbie_or how is Mint xfce compared to Xubuntu?11:06
EriC^^LinuxNewbie_: i doubt that11:06
tomreynLinuxNewbie_: lubuntu is indeed slightly more lightweight. or you could run iwthout a graphical desktop.11:06
LinuxNewbie_is lubuntu suitable for beginners?11:06
dinettomreyn: and to top it for I had a big ANFO-detonation close by11:06
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, if you can just take a peek at line 13 and below http://paste.ubuntu.com/23710662/11:07
MonkeyDustLinuxNewbie_  yes11:07
LinuxNewbie_I am switching over to Linux from Windows.11:07
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, don't worry about the uuid it is the same as before11:08
tomreyndinet: uh, hope you're doing well there.11:08
dinettomreyn: yes I am the anfo was a tunnelconstruction, and now apache complains on forbidden access to a vhost11:09
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: you're set, i.e. the change you made (commenting in the previous line in /etc/fstab, and commenting out the one for encrypted swap, as you had discussed here) was and is fine.11:10
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: and this /etc/fstab you just posted does, too11:10
one808有人吗11:11
guivercLinuxNewbie_: ubuntu with same apps/libs loaded should be same speed as debian.  by default each (xubuntu/debian) will have different apps loaded (slightly from memory).   how much memory do you have?  also be aware if you like KDE apps that use Qt libs; they'll be slower in XFCE as it has to load libs (XFCE uses GTK+2 libs); ie. use the default apps if you're limited in ram & resources (or do your homework).  Yes Lubuntu11:12
guivercis suitable for beginners; but taste will make you love or prefer another desktop.  my 2c.11:12
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, thanks I actually wrote an article long ago on askubuntu http://askubuntu.com/questions/33697/how-do-i-add-a-swap-partition-after-system-installation11:13
tomreyndinet: if you seek assistence with it, post the configuration file again.11:13
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, going to reboot11:13
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: alright, i hope it's fixed.11:13
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, But I am a newbie myself.. just trying to give some stuff back.11:14
LinuxNewbie_I have a laptop that runs on Intel Celeron M single core 1.6 ghz cpu and 2 gb ram.11:14
LinuxNewbie_It is almost 11 year old.11:14
dinettomreyn: I have the vhosts in the users homedirs11:14
dinettomreyn: that was one of the edits in apache2.conf I had11:15
guivercLinuxNewbie_: I'd recommend Lubuntu for you; but XFCE (xubuntu), or MATE should also be okay in that; but I'd not have other apps open if you like lots of tabs in your browser(s).11:15
dinettomreyn: atleast the the server starts now, getting the vhosts to work is easier. Famous last words..11:16
LinuxNewbie_guiverc, I will try Lubuntu.11:16
tomreyndinet: try not to edit apache2.conf if you can get around it this time. instead, create new files in /etc/apache2/{mods,sites}-available (and symlinks in {mods,sites}-enabled) and in /etc/apache2/conf.d/ as needed.11:19
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, I booted but still needed the crypto password.11:19
guivercLinuxNewbie_: went and looked; i have an equivalent laptop (thinkpad t42p; 2gb & celeron m) and personally I prefer XFCE, but also have MATE & LXDE loaded on mine (I select at login).   (I also have debian loaded on mine; but debian can be harder to install for newbies)11:20
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: pastebinit /etc/crypttab11:20
dinettomreyn: got it working now11:20
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, I do not understand11:20
bhikkhusubhutiyou want that file ..let me try11:21
guivercLinuxNewbie_: as a simpler & easier install - I'd still recommend Lubuntu over debian for you (even if mine has debian).11:21
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: that's a command you can run on your system11:21
tomreyn!pastebinit | bhikkhusubhuti11:21
ubottubhikkhusubhuti: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com11:21
tomreyndinet: :) nice.11:21
Teaboyanyone know how to fix overscan when using a monitor via HDMI?11:22
LinuxNewbie_guiverc, I already have Xubuntu installed on my laptop. As you suggested above I'll install lxde and mate desktops on it and try.11:22
bhikkhusubhutibhikkhusubhuti@Subhuntu:~$ cat /etc/crypttab11:22
bhikkhusubhuticryptswap1 UUID=8762e5d5-5afa-4a5f-ba7c-c5fae6936ea6 /dev/urandom swap,offset=1024,cipher=aes-xts-plain6411:22
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, above line was the cat output11:22
dinettomreyn: even if I put it in apache2.conf11:23
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, that is the same uuid11:23
LinuxNewbie_guiverc, thanks a lot for your help.11:23
dinettomreyn: thanks alot11:23
guivercYep; but try & use the default apps for each desktop. As a beginner its confusing; ie. leafpad=lxde, pluma=mate, mousepad=xfce for simple editing. using the wrong one will cause extra libs to be loaded into memory; and slow machine a little; which can become significant as run more apps.11:24
LinuxNewbie_and btw, does lxqt have more features than lxde?11:24
LinuxNewbie_can I install lxqt also?11:24
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: you no longer want to use encrypted swap, so don't.11:25
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, I did shrink the swap and that caused the problem.  It wanted me to NOT make free space before the partition, but I did it anyway.  It preferred it after11:25
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: i.e. comment out or remove that line, then run: sudo update-initramfs -u -k all11:25
MonkeyDustLinuxNewbie_  it's still in development stage, don't ask again ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LXQt11:25
guivercLinuxNewbie_: LxQt = LXDE using Qt libs; LXDE = GTK+2 libs; ie. default libs used are different; LxQt is newer so may have fewer for now; but is replacing LXDE.   Note the life of each distro; even-year.04 = LTS (long time support), all others are short-life11:25
LinuxNewbie_ok. won't go for it.11:25
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, OK  I have very little ssd space and I wanted to recover more space11:26
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, only one line.. commented out.. going to reboot.. cross fingers11:27
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: whether swap is encrypted or not won't have a relevant impact on disk space. i am aware that you reduced the size of the swap partition and created more paritionable space this way. this is not an ssd but classic NAND flash storage as found on an sdcard.11:27
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: it probably supported limited write cycles and as such using full disk encryptioon is a bad match for this type of storage.11:28
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, yes that is what I did.  I decreased my swap from 700 to 400.  I have 8gb of ram so it is not neccessary11:28
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, I only have 13.5 right now (with the extra space)11:28
LinuxNewbie_to create lubuntu live usb with persistence, pendrive of what size is needed?11:28
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, so what should I do?11:29
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, blkid is still the same11:29
guivercLinuxNewbie_: first thought = 8gb; but will depend upon how much space you need; how many apps you'll have, what you'll save. I'd prefer 16gb myself.11:29
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, but the eq of checksum would be different as you say11:29
LinuxNewbie_ok. I'll install it on the hard disk itself.11:30
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: my suggestion did not change: comment out or remove the line in /etc/crypttab, then run: sudo update-initramfs -u -k all11:30
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, It was a good thing I stuttered.. I forgot the update part :)11:31
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: i see. reboot again when you're done.11:32
boskohi11:32
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, making some warnings possible missing firmware. I have seen that before..when I installed the mainline (I removed the mainline)11:32

tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: very well. what this remaining password prompt is for, i do not know.11:36

bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, and the disk usage works fine too11:36

roryLinuxNewbie_: you can install multiple DEs on one installation and choose with DE to use on the login screen11:37
LinuxNewbie_ok. the question was on that only.11:37
guivercLinuxNewbie_: yes & no.  at login screen you'll see a gear type icon you can select to pick your desktop.  logout and change to select the other.  on menu's though you may suddenly have two editors appear (mousepad=xfce, leafpad=lxde); and picking the correct one will be faster; but hard to pick if menu says "Editor, Editor" as your options.  some DEsktops don't display app name, just function (editor) so this may be your11:38
guiverconly trip-up.11:38
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, thanks again.. going off.. I sometimes brows the askubuntu to see if I can help here and there11:38
LinuxNewbie_ok.11:38
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, to pay back to the system.. I used to be a programmer in the usa msvcpp 1994-9911:39
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: giving back this way is appreciated (by me personally).11:39
tomreyni would have become a monk to regain my mental sanity then, too.11:39
guivercLinuxNewbie_: i mentioned editors before; when running you can click about to see which loaded; some DEsktops provide app names; some provide function-names (eg. "editor" thus leafpad|pluma|mousepad|gedit|... for different desktops all have same function-name)11:39
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, I cannot program anymore though .. the tools are quite difficult.  I am a dinasour now.  Otherwise, I might help out in the foss world.11:40
LinuxNewbie_ok11:40
guivercLinuxNewbie_: note: clicking about - i meant clicking "about" near help.11:40
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, many people like dhamma.org  . the free way to learn meditation.  Most of us western monks started there.  volunteer run.  I live in myanmar now.. it has been 16 years11:41
tomreynbhikkhusubhuti: cool. we could chat more in #ubuntu-offtopic if you'd like to chat more. this channel should be limited to support really.11:41
bhikkhusubhutitomreyn, sorry  if you want.. I will go there  now11:42

OERIASHello12:11
jgcampbell300so im haveing a bit of trouble, just upgraded to ubuntu 16.04 .. cant seem to get my workspaces to run on each monitor ... before I had it setup so that workspace 1 was on monitor 1 workspace2 on monitor2 etc ... all 4 monitors had a workspace of its own ... just cant remember how it was setup ... any ideas12:12
Capum321sruli: not both, just show on notebook screen. and only enable when I set it on monitor settings app.12:12
guivercsruli: no idea, but dpkg could be protecting kernel (from delete); but don't think it'd be wise to have system not update kernel; i'd just fudge grub2 to default to an older (wanted) kernel.12:13
srulijgcampbell300: what do you have in Settings > Display Settings12:13

srulitomreyn: i PM'd you the goal12:30
jgcampbell300hmm think ill play around with mir and see what its about ... later12:30
srulitomreyn: you told me yesterday to hold the package without version number.. that did the trick... now moving to next stage how do i update12:31
tomreynsruli: i read what your goal is, but am puzzled about the use case (you don't need to discuss more closely if you prefer not to). update to what?12:32
srulitomreyn: if for example i am currently holding version 4.4.0-21 and want to update to 4.4.0-56 while latest realease is 4.4.0-58 how would i do that?12:34
tomreynsruli: "sudo apt-get install <packagename>" - kernel packages contain the (upstream) version number in their package name.12:35
srulitomreyn: the million $ question is which package exactly do i need get ? package name? everything from "dpkg -l "*$(uname -r)*" | grep generic ?12:37
tomreynsruli: is storing /boot on a removable device instead an option?12:37
OerHekslatest is 4.4.0-57, anyway12:37
tomreynsruli: if you want to install 4.4.0-56 then it's: sudo apt-get install linux-image-4.4.0-56-generic12:39
srulitomreyn: for this machine its too much hassle to use usb boot, i use on other machines12:39
srulitomreyn: just linux-image? not headers or anything? what about if it also uses linux-image-extra?12:39
adymitrukxar-: nah. I do that elsewhere ;) I'm actually curious and posted the same thing in other non Linux places12:44
srulitomreyn: thanks, i wasted 40-50 hours writing a script to update and hold back all kernel related packages that are newer then 30 days.. script started simple 10 lines, ended up 500 lines.. removed unattended-upgrades package, last night yesterday i found the dpkg hold feature ... now i am all set with unattended-upgrades12:44
EriC^^adymitruk: most are anti-polls here12:44

=== c_ is now known as Guest31723
Linuxcrazyok.12:51
tomreynsruli: i haven't tried this in a while, but IIRC grub will only prompt for the passphrase once it boots a kernel entry which requires it. so if you'd default to windows chain loading you'd get no passphrase prompt, but you could hold down shift / press escapt to ge tthe grub prompt and select an FDE linux boot and get the passphrase prompt.12:52
EriC^^tomreyn: i think grub needs the passphrase to decrypt "/" if he has /boot encrypted as well12:52
EriC^^if he doesn't want /boot inside of the luks then it would be straightforward12:53
srulitomreyn: how will grub get the kernel if its encrypted?12:53
EriC^^otherwise how would grub be able to decrypt /boot to get it's configuration file and modules and whatnot12:53

_ramokhi12:54
EriC^^sruli: i wonder if it would work if you just put /boot/grub on a clean unencrypted partition12:55
tekisuihey ramok12:55
sruliEriC^^: you men boot from usb?12:55
EriC^^so grub can get its config files and modules and you get a grub menu12:55
_ramokhow can i add a gatewa to an interface permanently? currently i'm doing: ip route add default via 10.4.2.152   after restart. my interface definition looks like this: auto eth0     iface eth0 inet dhcp          dns-nameservers xxxx.xx.x.x.x.x12:55
maddawg3ok i guess not..12:55
EriC^^sruli: no i mean if the kernel is inside the luks, but just the /boot/grub files are outside, unless that's not desirable from your part12:55
maddawg3you can add routes in the ifconfig file _ramok12:56
sruliEriC^^: i likes the key on usb idea better, but am open to exploring both, how would i setup the grub for that?12:56
_ramokmaddawg3: ifconfig file? where can i find those?12:56
maddawg3your network config file?12:57
maddawg3the same place you set your ip address12:57
maddawg3the iface eth0 inet dhcp... where id you put that?12:57
maddawg3it goes in there12:57
_ramokmaddawg3:  i set it up in /etc/network/interfaces  with the following settings: auto eth0     iface eth0 inet dhcp          dns-nameservers xxxx.xx.x.x.x.x12:57
EriC^^sruli: make a ext2 partition and mount it under /boot/grub i guess12:57
tomreynEriC^^, sruli: her'E another suggestion: grub in MBR with unencrypted /boot to chainload either (a) windows and (b) another grub. the other grub would use an encrypted /boot12:57
EriC^^sruli: i've no idea how/if that would actually work12:57
EriC^^it was just a "i wonder" kind of thing12:58
maddawg3yes _ramok12:58
maddawg3thats where it goes12:58
_ramoki've tried to put ip route add default via 10.4.2.152  also to thise file, but ping google.com resulted in an unknown network12:58
maddawg3you can set your gateway there12:58
maddawg3well are you trying toset a gateway or a route?12:58
maddawg3different things12:58
sruliEriC^^: i was thinking about that too... wouldnt know how to start... TJ would have figured it out in a minute.. shame he is not around amymore12:58
_ramokmaddawg3: i think a route12:59
maddawg3https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/12:59
maddawg3see sample there12:59
maddawg3it has a gateway in there12:59
maddawg3if you want a route you need to do add route12:59
EriC^^sruli: try it in a vm12:59
sruliEriC^^: tomreyn: i will need to set aside 3-4 days to play with this gonna make time for it in the next few weeks..13:00
EriC^^or go with tomreyn 's idea, it's the same concept and security wise with the same implications13:00
maddawg3_ramok, try the route add <ip>13:00
maddawg3but i'd actually do   post-up route add GATEWAY_IP dev eth013:01
tomreyni think the double grub approach should work out. if EriC^^ 's approach also works out, it's probably the bette rone. but i'm not sure it would in terms of when the passphrase is prompted for.13:01
maddawg3then pre-down route del GATEWAY_IP dev eth013:01
maddawg3so it adds it before it comes up13:01
maddawg3and deletes it beforee coming down13:01
_ramoklet me try this out13:01
tomreynactually, thinking again, in fact both could work.13:02
sruliEriC^^: tomreyn: the idea of encrypted boot with key on usb intrigues me most..13:02
maddawg3here's kind of an example... wont apply much to you.. but kinda what it might look like _ramok http://docs.ovh.ca/en/guides-network-bridging.html#debian-derivatives-ubuntu-crunchbang-steamos13:02
tomreynsruli: oh that is definitely a more common one than the other two.13:02
_ramokmaddawg3: i'm still getting:  ping google.com   ping: unknown host google.com  with this config: post-up route add 10.4.2.152 dev eth013:03
_ramokpre-down route del 10.4.2.152 dev eth013:03

_ramokmaddawg3: this is what the hoster wrote me: On BACKEND servers without direct Internet-access:1st Set default route: “ip route add default via 5.6.7.8” (replace 5.6.7.8 with GATEWAY servers private IP-address)13:04
maddawg3well i'm not sure about how your networking is set up13:04
_ramokOn GATEWAY server:1st Enable NAT. Example: ”iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 10.0.0.0/8 -j SNAT --to-source 1.2.3.4 (replace eth0 with public-Internet interface and  1.2.3.4 with gateway servers public IPv4 address)”2nd Activate IP-forwarding: “echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward”13:04
srulitomreyn: EriC^^: obviously, boot will need to use a different luks than / dont want the key for / on a usb stick13:04
_ramokmaddawg3: so i've actually one server with a public and private ip, and a second node that should use this one as a gateway13:04
maddawg3can you pastebin your interfaces file?13:04

maddawg3and where is the instruction from your hoster?13:05

maddawg3where's your gateway?13:06
tomreynsruli: i think the approach where oyu store the crypto key on a usb attached storage is one where you first select to boot this grub kernel entry after grub configuration was laoded from an unencrypted /boot, and then (optionally, but recommendable) are prompted about your passphrase to decrypt the key stored on the usb storage.13:06
_ramokOn BACKEND servers without direct Internet-access:1st Set default route: “ip route add default via 5.6.7.8” (replace 5.6.7.8 with GATEWAY servers private IP-address)13:06
maddawg3oh it's dhcp?13:06
_ramokyes13:06
tomreynsruli: if you'd fail to provide that passphrase grub would just keep asking.13:06
_ramokand my gateway is on 10.4.2.15213:06
maddawg3and they arent doing this routing a tthe dhcp server13:06

sruliyes, that what i want.. i will revisit this sometime next week13:07
maddawg3also those last two lines should be under eth0 for best practices13:07
maddawg3not under eth113:07
_ramokmaddawg3: which ones do you mean?13:07
maddawg3the post up route13:07
maddawg3are they supposed to be tied to eth0 or eth113:08
_ramoketh013:08
maddawg3ok13:08
maddawg3then move them to the correct section first13:08
maddawg3and what is the IP address you have currently on eth0?13:08
_ramokmaddawg3: done13:08
_ramokmaddawg3: on the private node: 10.4.2.22613:09
maddawg3is eth0 private or public?13:09
maddawg3and can you ping the gateway address?13:09
_ramoketh0 is private13:09
maddawg3private as in only for LAN?13:10
_ramokmaddawg3: yes i can ping the gateway address13:10
maddawg3cuz your dns server is located on that config13:10
maddawg3can you ping the other gateway you added13:10
_ramokmaddawg3: yes, private as in only for LAN13:10
_ramoki have only one13:10
maddawg3oh wait13:10
maddawg3yea you only have one set13:10
maddawg3you shouldnt need to  set it at all in a dhcp13:10
_ramokfrom 10.4.2.226 i've pinged the gateway: 10.4.2.15213:10
maddawg3ok13:11
maddawg3so the issue then is your DNS?13:11
maddawg3wait i'm confused13:11
maddawg3what do you  mean by private and public interface13:11
maddawg3why do you have eth1 and eth013:11
_ramokon private IP  and one public IP13:11
_ramokone VM can have a private and a public IP13:11
maddawg3one private IP?13:11
maddawg3what for?13:11
_ramokthe gateway server has a private and a public IP13:11
_ramokto not have the node exposed to the public13:11
maddawg3well yes cuz it's a gateway13:12
maddawg3arent you trying to get it online?13:12
_ramokmaddawg3: just to call the internet, but not to be reachable13:12
_ramoke.g. for ntpd13:12
maddawg3well 10.4.2.152 is a private IP13:13
maddawg3thats not public13:13
_ramokon the gateway i run the following: 1st Enable NAT. Example: ”iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 10.0.0.0/8 -j SNAT --to-source 1.2.3.4 (replace eth0 with public-Internet interface and  1.2.3.4 with gateway servers public IPv4 address)”2nd Activate IP-forwarding: “echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward”13:13
maddawg3i'm a bit confused13:14
aleiwelcome me!13:14
maddawg3your hoster doesnt give you a gateway?13:14
maddawg3usually they give you a gateway13:14
maddawg3i mean it looks like you have it set to DHCP13:15
maddawg3which implies the DHCP  should be setting this up for you13:15
maddawg3the dhcp server that is13:15
maddawg3also have you tried pinging google by IP address instread of name _ramok13:16
maddawg3cuz it could also just be a dns issue13:16
maddawg3and also pinging your dns servers13:16
maddawg3they are on the public internet13:17
_ramokmaddawg3:  ping 8.8.8.813:17
_ramokconnect: Network is unreachable13:17
_ramokso but if i set this command via cli ip route add default via 10.4.2.152  everything works13:17
maddawg3then put that in the config13:17
_ramokmaddawg3: still:  ping 8.8.8.8 connect: Network is unreachable13:19
maddawg3i'm confused because you have no gateway defined in your interfaces file13:20
maddawg3usually that's defined by the dhcp server13:20
maddawg3why not define the gateway13:20
maddawg3just gateway <ip address> under the eth0 config13:20
maddawg3and delete that post up and pre down stuff13:20
maddawg3but the point of DHCP is to be automatic13:21
maddawg3so why they arent passing this from the DHCP is beyond me13:21
_ramokadding just the gateway option also doesn't work13:21
maddawg3yea man i dont know then13:21
maddawg3sounds like they have a fucked up network13:22
maddawg3if they are using dhcp you shouldnt have to d efine any of this13:22
maddawg3otherwise there's no point of having dhcp13:22
maddawg3have they not provided a sample configuration???13:22
maddawg3it's odd that they wouldnt provide that13:22
_ramokmaddawg3: nope13:23
maddawg3time for new hoster then if they cant help you13:23
_ramokokay, i'll try to clarify it with them. i've also treid nearly all of the above options..13:23
maddawg3also i havent seen  the instructions they sent you13:23
maddawg3so cant say13:23
maddawg3but those are the only ways to add routes and gateways insie the config file13:23
maddawg3you could also simply try just putting in the interface file "ip route add default via 10.4.2.152"13:24
maddawg3i dont know if that will work13:24
maddawg3you can also set up a script that does the command at startup everytime13:24

dStructCommonCents: they're essentially USB to HDMI video cards in a sense, with very low latency, I wouldn't expect to do any epic gaming on them but for desktop and video they work great15:48
Vamp898Hi there. I used this guide to setup SSSD on Ubuntu 14.04 https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/sssd-ad.html and everything works perfect. But when i use the exact same guide for Ubuntu 16.04, i can join the AD, i can use getent to get user ids and groups and so on, everything works almost fine15:49
Vamp898But login with su or on the desktop does not work with 16.04. When i try with su i get "su: System error"15:49

OerHeksi think chromium does not work with netflix, chrome and firefox do.16:10
Amm0nstar31416, imho 2.154s is a sane time for your NIC to get an IP-Address from the Router and startup.16:11
fortyseven47Isn't the last version of chromium already patched to support widevinecm?16:11
dStructjgcampbell300: I like to do it old school with diff16:11
jgcampbell300dStruct, :)16:12
dStructstar31416: you could always you know set a static IP instead of being at the mercy of a DHCP server response from your router16:12

star31416dStruct, Amm0n: I don't use DHCP as you can see in http://pastebin.com/47LLSp4Y16:21
star31416And more than 2 second to initialize a bridge and assign a static IP address is very long.16:22
star31416s/second/seconds16:22
dStructstar31416: hmm I'd have to play around with that setup in my lab to see if the speed could be improved, basically you have a few things happening, the layer 2 physical link between devices may be where it's being held up, if you watch the link light on the NIC during the 2.5~ delay is it linked and green already?16:23
one808ha16:23
=== joe__ is now known as Big_joe
star31416dStruct, I will check the link LED.16:25
dStructstar31416: also you're going to want to hard code any auto-negotiation options to use for example 1000 full duplex or 100 full, it takes time for the devices to "negotiate" the link prior to link up16:26
dStructstar31416: probably on both ends of the link if possible, router and host16:26
dStructstar31416: something like pre-up /sbin/ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full16:27
dStructstar31416: and another thing, if you have multiple adapters you may want to look at the EXCLUDE_INTERFACES= option in /etc/default/networking to disable any extra non-used hardware.  Or you could toggle the CONFIGURE_INTERFACES= option to NO, and manually set up the bridge using CLI tools and a script if you really need to16:36

jgcampbell300ducasse, I have been reading about xrandr a bit ... is it better than xorg17:23
dStructstar31416: if you're looking to speed things up even more, there are services that start by default that aren't really needed in most cases, postfix for one, maybe samba too17:23

ducassejgcampbell300: unless you _need_ to use xorg.conf for some reason, i prefer xrandr. my config is just a single command line.17:25
meandcombye17:25
dStructducasse: xrandr works well usually17:25
ducassedStruct: agreed.17:26
star31416dStruct: Samba is important because it is a NAS. Furthermore, I use postfix for sending notifications if something bad happens.17:27

j41xangua: Some people say a BIOS update might solve the problem17:34
star31416dStruct, I just upgraded from 4x4TB to 4x10TB and that's enough for now. :-)17:34

xanguadStruct: how can I see the logs? Last time I had to get my hands dirty was also around 200817:38
star31416dStruct: ZFS, BRTFS, or something else as filesystem?17:38
dStructstar31416: I think we have ZFS on it, I didn't do the install on that particular box17:39
dStructxangua: /var/log maybe syslog might have some errors in it17:39
xanguadStruct: weird thing is if I remove light light and install xscreensaver (or the opposite) suspend might work... Until next reboot17:39
dStructxangua: also you may check the options in the BIOS and/or tweak them to see if for example S3 sleep versus S1 sleep helps the situation17:40
star31416dStruct: I have performed a couple of tests before I decided to go with ZFS. Up to now, ZFS seems to work flawlessly. I'm able to get 600MB/s local performance on the ZFS storage system which is more than enough for me.17:41
dStructxangua: it might be more helpful if you can just paste.ubuntu.com the /var/log/dmesg and maybe the syslog too if it's not too big17:41
dStructstar31416: yeah I've used ZFS and been very happy with it in the past17:41
dStructstar31416: I built a Supermicro 160TB array a few years back when 4TB was still the biggest drive you could get, and used ZFS for it17:43

star31416dStruct, I really like the caching capabilities of ZFS. Currently I'm running 32GB of ECC RAM and an additional SSD, both for caching. The performance combined with the reduced power consumption is incredible. For example, if I watch a 1080p movie with a duration of 90 minutes, then ZFS caches the whole movie within a couple to seconds and puts the magnetic data drives in standby mode for the remainder of the movie. :-)17:49
dStructstar31416: yeah it really is the FS of the future, I'm a fan17:50

dStructprg318: there are a few ways to do that, and I believe that should be the default method18:49
tomreynsarath: that's a login session on TTY1 (ctrl-alt-f1 or -f2 to switch there)18:50
prg318is there some kind of dpkg reconfigure i can do? i set up static in the installer and then realized that I'll be needing dhcp on all18:50
dStructprg318: do you not want to use network-manager?18:51

sarathtomreyn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23712843/ believe this is the process18:52
tomreynsarath: is do-release-upgrade still running then? run "sudo pstree" and look at the branch relevant to the release upgrader.18:52

tomreynsarath: so: ssh -p 1022 yourserversipadress18:53
blib1currently I have to login for the ubuntu box to connect to the wireless network - how do I make that happen at boot time?18:53
dStructprg318: /etc/network/interfaces and putting auto eth0, and then iface eth0 inet dhcp should do it18:54
dStructprg318: assuming eth0 obviously18:54
tomreynblib1: edit wireless connections and tick the checkbox  to make it available system-wide / for all users.18:54
sarathit works, but opens new shell.. I want to go back to the process 2806218:55
tomreynsarath: maybe you need to connect using a different user account. which user owns PID 28062?18:56
saraththat is root18:56
sarathno password for it18:56
prg318dStruct: so yeah that will work for eth0 but i'm trying to get it to use dhcp for every single network interface - i have six18:57
tomreynhmm,i'm pretty sure do-release-upgrade prints a message on screen when it spawns this extra sshd, explaining how to recover from it. but i don't remember it.18:57
prg318it's a really weird use case but i just want all physical network interfaces to use dhcp for addressing18:57
dStructprg318: you'll need entries for each interface then, eth0 eth1 etc18:57
prg318okay - the strange thing is that i don't know if they are reliably enumerated the same way...  i have enp3s0, enp5s0, enp13s0, etc18:58
dStructprg318: nothing wrong with that, I actually prefer that in some situations, as I'd prefer to control static assigned addresses from the DHCP server if I do use static for something18:58

tomreynsarath: "If your ssh session gets disconnected, you can resume the installation. All you have to do is open a new ssh session, and run do-release-upgrade again. It will reconnect to your previous installation." - this is from 2014, however.19:01
tomreyn... but then you already tried sudo screen -x19:01
prg318dStruct: problem with mapping mac addresses to interfaces is that i need an image that will work on multiple machines that will have different MACs.. which is why i was hoping i could wildcard * to use dhcp19:03

dStructsarath: basically if you didn't use screen prior to being disconnected, there is no way to properly reconnect to your disconnected session, it can be done but you'll break some stuff and your upgrade wont be happy about it19:03
prg318i could install network manager i guess? or reinstall with ubuntu-desktop or something19:03
dStructprg318: ahh well you didn't say anything about making a master image :D19:03
dStructprg318: if you're not on a desktop version there's no point19:04
dStructprg318: so what is it you're trying to do?19:04
prg318i just want any detected network interfaces to attempt to use dhcp for ip addressing19:04
xanguaWell I just restarted and can't come back from suspend again19:05
jgcampbell300ok so another xorg question ... do i really need to set ( Option "DPI") if the system can get the info from all of my monitors19:07
dStructxangua: try ctrl+alt+f1 and login and type pm-suspend, does it wake/sleep that way?19:09
dStructprg318: since you have random devices and you're making a image for multiple machines you may want to use network-manager or wicd19:10
xanguadStruct: no after reboot19:11
prg318okay thanks.. i think i'll just make an image based off of -desktop so networkmanager is preconfigured19:11
hdmi-guestHello, I'm the guest that just asked about HDMI audio problems. I tried to update the drivers, but failed. I had to nuke and reinstall nvidia through the official repos. I checked the Nouveau drivers and it didn't change anything either.19:11
prg318thanks dStruct  !!! much appreciated for your help19:12
dStructprg318: before you do that, you may try installing network-manager, if I remember right it may set DHCP by default19:12
dStructprg318: sure thing, good luck :D19:12
prg318yeah i may go that route19:12
prg318thank you19:12
dStructxangua: hmm, and you have the latest current Ubuntu version?19:13
sintrehdmi-guest is this a complete no sound issue?19:13

dStructMuffinMedic: are you trying to ping your own machine?20:34
MuffinMedicno. the machine has a different hostname20:35

MuffinMedicYea, but why is the TLD being appended?20:35

dStructMuffinMedic: what are you trying to do?20:36
MuffinMedictrying to figure out why this is happening. http://paste.ubuntu.com/23713426/20:37

dStructMuffinMedic: the search entry20:39
MuffinMedichm dStruct , nothing in there except 3 name serves - all google's20:40
dStructMuffinMedic: does your /etc/hosts have anything exotic in it?20:40
dStructMuffinMedic: well you could try switching your dns to say opendns and test if it remains the same20:40
MuffinMedichm nothing in /etc/hosts20:41
dStructMuffinMedic: you could also maybe set /etc/resolv.conf to search .local for example and see if that changes the behavior20:41

j41Agro: Probably. You could then install Unity ontop of that.21:06
Agroalright awesome, thanks21:06
j41Agro: I'm not aware of a way to do a minimal install like that, although there might be one.21:06
Agrowell it didnt have to be perfect, just didnt want most of the desktop stuff21:07
jgcampbell300Agro, I wonder if you could start with a Debain net install21:07
dStructjgcampbell300: the Window Manager is a singular program, you can't run more then one21:08
dStructjgcampbell300: try top right -> System Settings -> Display21:08
jgcampbell300dStruct, oddly enough Displays only shows 1 monitor but nvidia settings sees them all21:10
dStructjgcampbell300: then your displays aren't setup right, if you have multiple displays connected to a standard video card chances are you don't have to do anything usually21:11
jgcampbell300dStruct, hmm guess ill backup what i have and try to reinstall xorg and nvidia settings21:12
dStructjgcampbell300: well I don't know if you need to do all that, did you save the original xorg.conf?21:12
jgcampbell300dStruct, i bleave so ... but it dosnt work right21:13
dStructjgcampbell300: what does it do?21:13
jgcampbell300dStruct, puts monitors all over the place21:13
dStructjgcampbell300: you can arrange them in System Settings -> Displays21:14

jgcampbell300dStruct, aye ... all 4 monitors and 2 cards with all the correct info21:23
dStructGroundZero: some laptops are NOT *nix friendly at all21:23
dStructjgcampbell300: good, then it should just be a matter of proper configuration21:24
dStructjgcampbell300: you should be able to do everything from the nVidia Settings app21:24
GroundZeroyeah..and the new graphic card that i liked so much was suddely a burden for me..because the kernel was too old for it21:24
jgcampbell300dStruct, ya .. I had it all runing with mint ... all same hardware i been using for a year21:25

dStructjgcampbell300: sounds like something is completely borked in one of the configs somewhere, hard to be sure, does /var/log/Xorg.0.log have anything good in it?21:32

dStructjgcampbell300: well if you can restore the original config that's what I would do, but I have no idea what other changes you might have made, you could try it21:36
jgcampbell300dStruct, dont think its the config ... i just erased it a few min ago and had nvidia make a new one21:37

rocketsnailWhy does my internet hotspot crash when I connect my Windows 10 Pro pc to it but not when I connect my iPhone to it? (created new wifi connection, chose my network card, set new ssid, set WPA personal password, ipv4 is shared and required, ipv6 is ignored, I set up the hotspot by clicking "connect to hidden network" and clicking the connection I created)21:38

dStructrocketsnail: I'm sorry :D21:40
rocketsnailAgreed though :)21:40
dStructrocketsnail: get yourself a copy of VMware Fusion and just run Winblows inside Mac OS X21:40
yvaHi, I'm trying to install a dualboot on an xps13. Some tutorials recommend to switch from RAID to AHCI. Is this necessary?21:40
nils_yva, yes21:41
dStructyva: I can't imagine why you'd be running it in RAID mode on a laptop, unless you actually have a RAID, AHCI is required I believe21:41
Jeatonany good applications for burning avi to dvd format?21:41
nils_yva, RAID is not really RAID mode, it just means it's loading a different driver than the Microsoft AHCI driver when booting windows which I believe is currently unsupported by linux21:41
rocketsnaildStruct: I am on winter break and want to play games on my windows 10 partition but USB to ethernet adapter won't work. It works in OS X just fine. so, I want to plug the ethernet into my ThinkPad x220 running ubuntu and make a wifi hotspot so I can connect to it with my Winblows macbook21:41
yvaOk, thanks!21:42
nils_yva, however, if the live CD detects the disk then you don't need to.21:42
yvaAlso, any idea how I can get a /data partition encrypted?21:42
rocketsnailmy wifi network crashes when I connect windows 10 to it and I have to restart NetworkManager21:42
dStructrocketsnail: not sure why it's doing that, but you should be able to share your connection, have you tried setting up Ubuntu as an Wifi Access Point maybe?21:43
rocketsnailNo how could I do that?21:43
rocketsnailor would you recommend Bluetooth? I was getting DNS issues when I tried to set up a bluetooth PAN21:43
dStructrocketsnail: it's been too long since I did it, but google should point you in the right direction21:43
dStructrocketsnail: bluetooth is essentially a serial connection, it would be slow21:44
rocketsnailah :/ fair enough, I'll check out setting up Ubuntu as a wifi access point!21:44
nils_rocketsnail, what version of Ubuntu are you running? You are using the "Use as hotspot" feature in Network Manager, right?21:45
rocketsnailgod this is a better article than anything I've found so far: https://askubuntu.com/questions/180733/how-to-setup-an-access-point-mode-wi-fi-hotspot21:45
rocketsnailnils: unfortunately I am running Ubuntu MATE 16.0421:45
dStructrocketsnail: keep in mind if you're using Ubuntu's wifi adapter for internet access, it can't do both, it can be a wifi client, or an access point, not both21:45
cipsad21:45
nils_dStruct, I believe the situation is rocketsnail has an ethernet connection and wants to share that via Wifi21:46
rocketsnaildStruct I am using ethernet to supply the internet connection21:46
nils_dStruct, like the mobile hotspot feature on android/iphone et al21:46
nils_rocketsnail, sudo systemctl status NetworkManager.service21:47
rocketsnailnils_: it seems like vanilla Ubuntu would be the easiest way to set up the Hotspot as Ubuntu MATE doesn't have that option. Could I install ubuntu settings manager in Ubuntu Mate? Or would I be able to use plain ubuntu in a VirtualBox VM and create a wifi hotspot from inside the vpn?21:47
rocketsnailnils_: will do21:47
nils_rocketsnail, or maybe I misunderstood the situation. You have your Ubuntu system connected to the internet via Ethernet, and it's also connected to a wireless lan provided by another AP?21:48
ralexso i ended up installing hardinfo on this new laptop and looked under sensors and its not showing anything under the fans.21:49
ralexthis is in reference to lenovo y700 on ubuntu 16.1021:49
rocketsnailnils_: no I wish to create a wifi hotspot using the internet I'm getting from my ethernet connection. I set up the wifi hotspot and am able to connect with iPhone just fine, but when I connect to the wifi hotspot from windows 10 the wifi hotspot crashes. This occurs whether my iPhone is connected or not21:50
rocketsnailnils_: after I crash the hotspot by connecting with windows 10, NetworkManager.service is still reporting as "active (running)"21:51
rocketsnailbut my wifi card is reporting as "device not ready" until i restart network manager21:51
jgcampbell300dStruct, hey thanks for the help but i gota get up and do soemthing my back is killing me21:51
dStructrocketsnail: anything in the logs?21:51
dStructjgcampbell300: anytime :D21:51
nils_rocketsnail, bit of a long shot, can you see if there is anything suspicious in the kernel log (dmesg output should be enough)21:53
ulrichhello22:02
rocketsnailnils_: sorry I was having connection issues so I saw your message at irclogs.ubuntu.com, so what I should do is try to crash the hotspot by connecting to it with win10 and immediately type dmesg in console to review the output?22:04
dStructrocketsnail: you can open the log files in /var/log22:04
dStructrocketsnail: more /var/log/dmesg for example22:04
rocketsnaildStruct: ah understood thank you22:05
dStructrocketsnail: I prefer tail -f /var/log/dmesg usually22:05
nils_rocketsnail, does the ubuntu box crash completely?22:05
rocketsnailnils_: no only the wifi adapter crashes. It says "device not ready". I am able to revive it with "sudo service network-manager restart"22:06
nils_dStruct, dmesg is a binary that just dumps out the kernel log buffer.22:06
dStructnils_: yes, but it can't tail -f it :D22:06
rocketsnaildStruct: I wasn't able to get any output using the tail command (nothing has been logged yet)22:07
nils_dStruct, well, as long as dmesg is loaded into the page cache you can still get the kernel buffer even if the file system died.22:07
dStructnils_: nice22:07
rocketsnailnils_ dStruct: Using "dmesg" in console gives me a lot of information but I am not sure what I'm looking for. I see some tags like iwlwifi and IPv622:08
exalthow well does the 1080 work on linux?22:08
j41exalt: GTX 1080?22:08

j41exalt: I've got a 1060 and it works fine22:08
rocketsnailI see a segfault in red22:08
j41exalt: I assume the 1080 will work fine too22:08
exaltj41: nicw22:09
nils_rocketsnail, that segfault is the likely cause of the problem22:09
nils_rocketsnail, good news, it's nothing you did, bad news, it's likely nothing that's easy to fix22:09
rocketsnailnils_: I understand now, yes it is absolutely the issue22:10
rocketsnailnils_ Here is the line that contains the segfault https://paste.ubuntu.com/23713788/22:11
rocketsnailI am not getting much information from that :)22:11
nils_rocketsnail, yeah that pretty much just tells you that wpa_supplicant died, which is the program that provides WPA authentication22:11
nils_rocketsnail, disabling and enabling wifi just restarts wpa_supplicant22:12
george_guys anybody knows about ff acceleration with old nvidia ion chipsets22:12
rangemongerif i do restart or shutdown -h now commands and nothing at all happens, what would be a way around this?22:14
nils_rocketsnail, I would think that Microsoft did the usual job of implementing authentication, using some weird password schemes half wrong and that's enough to crash it22:14
rangemonger*reboot22:14
dStructrangemonger: are you doing so as a super user?22:15
rangemongerindeed i am dStruct22:15
dStructrangemonger: well that'd odd then, no idea22:15
rangemongerdoing those commands just does a carriage return22:15
BuckyHi, could someone help me?  dpkg throws this error when I try to apt-get upgrade: /var/lib/dpkg/info/tomcat7.config: 48: /etc/default/tomcat7: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string22:15
rangemongerbut i can still do other commands like dir or what have you22:16
nils_rangemonger, can you switch between terminals?22:16
nils_Bucky, there is a problem in the config file /etc/default/tomcat722:16
rangemongernils_: im remoted in via ssh22:16
nils_rangemonger, I see22:16
nils_rangemonger, there may be some process holding up the shutdown procedure22:16
rangemongerwhats the command to see the processes again?22:17
nils_rangemonger, any network filesystems mounted perhaps? Or something like corosync, zookeper etc.?22:17
nils_rangemonger, ps ax shows you all the processes22:17
rangemongernils_: i was messing around with lcx when things started getting all laggy, does that count?22:17
rangemonger*lxc22:17
nils_rangemonger, that makes the whole process thing a bit more problematic22:18
Buckynils_, I don't see an issue here though, does the 48 not mean the line number?22:18
nils_Bucky, yes22:18
rangemongerhmm22:19
Buckynils_, well I spent a few hours looking at it last night and couldn't see anything wrong, here it is if you want to give it a look: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23713829/22:19
nils_rangemonger, if you really wanna reboot22:19
rangemongeri do22:19
nils_rangemonger, there is /proc/sysrq-trigger22:20
rangemongeras long as it wont threaten any mounted ntfs partitions to do so22:20
rangemongerthey werent under use22:20
nils_rangemonger, ntfs? Is this some sort of satanic ritual?22:20
jim_Hi22:20
jim_what the hell do I do now?22:20
nils_rangemonger, so what you do is (as root) echo s > /proc/sysrq-trigger22:20
rangemongernils_: i have 2 ntfs ddrives automounting at boot22:20
nils_rangemonger, using ntfs-3g via fuse?22:21
jim_Ok which room should i head to for the new bee's22:21
nils_rangemonger, it may be that it can't umount the ntfs filesystems and is therefore hanging22:21
rangemongeri beleive so, whatever the default ntfs setup is when you install u22:21
nils_maybe even due to the fuse process crashing or something22:22
rangemongerunlikely but ill try to unmount em22:22
nils_which gets me back to: echo s > /proc/sysrq-trigger22:22
nils_which will cause an Emergency Sync22:22
nils_means all dirty blocks will get written to the disk22:22
nils_and then you can use the following which will immediately reset the system cho b > /proc/sysrq-trigger22:23
nils_the same effect is achieved by pressing CTRL+ALT+SysRq+b on the physical machine (same as pressing the reset button)22:25
rangemongeraccessing the physical machines not an option for another 6h or so22:26
dStructnils_: fwiw even the early *nix's had that option but it was usually a binary in /bin called sync to do an emergency sync22:26
nils_dStruct, yes, that still exists22:27
dStructnils_: I know because I'm running SysV R3 :D22:27
nils_dStruct, that sysrq thing is assuming you may not be able to use the shell anymore in any capacity22:27
nils_dStruct, that must be the old days when the rubber boots where still made of wood ;)22:28
dStructnils_: yeah that's a hailmary we're going off the cliff22:28
dStructnils_: the original filesystem we still use was installed in 197322:28
nils_dStruct, hah yeah, but I think that sysrq thing made it to the linux kernel some time after 200022:29
nils_dStruct, which would bring me to the story behind ctrl+alt+del but I'm already too far off topic22:30
rangemongerwhy would unmount be "umount" thats just asking for problems :P22:31
rangemongeri didnt notice the command lacks an n for a while22:31
kk4ewtrangemonger, because unix admins were lazy22:31
dStructnils_: haha22:31
zotac:)22:32
nils_rangemonger, that's one of the regrets of the creator of unix22:32
nils_rangemonger, he said if he would do it again he would call it create() instead of creat()22:32
kk4ewtrangemonger,  same reason ls is only 2 when its stands for list22:32
nils_part of the reason is that it was more to type22:32
rocketsnailhow often are the logs updated? irclogs.ubuntu.com22:32
rangemongerwow, thanks that guy22:32
nils_back in the day before powered keyboards you had to press really hard so every saved keystroke counts22:33
nils_think old timey typewriter but you need to finger to push down certain keys22:33
nils_also think this was before tab completion22:33

rangemongersweet, thanks for the help nils_22:46
BuckyOK, I have no idea how this happened so it must've been a programmer's typo or something..22:46
nils_rangemonger, share with the class, what was it?22:46
nils_Bucky, it looks like someone using vim without knowing vim ;)22:46
tomreynnils: what about Bucky's "-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -$" ? you removed those.22:47
nils_tomreyn, MaxPermSize is unsupported by Java 822:47
rangemongerim not entirely sure what caused it but i sysreq'd it fine, i wasnt using the echo part of the command at first, so my bad there22:47
nils_tomreyn, -$ is gibberish22:47
Buckymust be the buddy I let use the server then, I'm not sure what he's trying to do with it22:47
tomreynthanks22:47
rangemongernow that its restarted, i can restore my backup via timeshift22:47
rangemongeri think it was something with lxc22:48
rangemongerwhen i was installing it, the console output was odd and it was getting really slow22:48
nils_rangemonger, are you using libvirt with lxc?22:48
rangemongerit did complete ok though22:48
rangemongeryes nils_, i am22:48
rangemongeror i was, rather22:49
nils_rangemonger, but it's a systemd based ubuntu?22:49
rangemongeryes, unfortunately22:49
rangemonger*unfortunately22:49
nils_yeah libvirt is usually blocking shutdown until all the vms are shut down22:50
nils_systemd usually has timeouts for that22:50
jcjordyn120does anyone know how to quiet these messages? http://pastebin.com/NZ4WUpZN22:51
rangemongershouldnt that atleast result in a verbose message when i try to shutdown?22:51
nils_rangemonger, thing is, when it tries to shut down a container/VM and that one hangs you won't find the output where you'd expect it22:52
nils_rangemonger, if at all22:52
rangemongerah, right22:52
rangemongerthat kind of makes sense22:52
nils_jcjordyn120, I think your disk may be broken.22:52
jcjordyn120nils_, the disk and controller are working fine.22:52
jcjordyn120no SMART errors, no IO errors, nothing. just these22:52
Buckydpkg is working now, thanks a lot guys! =)22:53
nils_jcjordyn120, I could tell you how to quiet them all22:53
jcjordyn120nils_, how?22:53
nils_Bucky, alright, just check that tomcat comes up again22:53
nils_jcjordyn120, dmesg -n alert22:54
jcjordyn120nils_, does "dmesg -n alert" stop them from being printed from journalctl and dmesg?22:55
nils_jcjordyn120, only on the console22:55
jcjordyn120nils_, ah22:56
nils_jcjordyn120, although I'm not 100% sure since rsyslogd might be having a different idea22:56
nils_jcjordyn120, but it would usually just spit out messages to the primary console22:56
jcjordyn120nils_, I don't have rsyslog enabled.22:57
rocketsnailnils_ I was finally able to set up a hotspot with create_ap :) https://github.com/oblique/create_ap22:57
nils_jcjordyn120, then no harm no foul. It will still go to the kernel log buffer, not to the active console though.22:58
nils_jcjordyn120, and the kernel has a nice rate limiting function if it gets too much22:59
jcjordyn120nils_, I know I tried running systemd in debug mode xD22:59
nils_jcjordyn120, I gotta say, I learned to like systemd this year22:59
jcjordyn120nils_, same here, allows me to admin my server way easier. :)23:00
nils_jcjordyn120, it used to be that I blamed systemd, now I blame bad unit files23:00
jcjordyn120nils_, same here23:00
jcjordyn120can't wait when ubuntu will go 100% systemd unit files, and not LSB wrappers.23:00

nouckeyHi Guys & Girls ! I know there are terrible things happening to the world right now but I'm drowning here, it's been 12 hours and I don't know what to do anymore I feel I'm making it worse. SO very quick summary: I'm super newbie and my session (or guest) won't start. I tried several solutions that probably complicated stuff, I used Ubuntu 14.04 and migrated to ubuntu 16 while trying to repair things. Super dumb I know, but > d23:13

rocketsnailnouckey: walk us through what you see after you turn your computer on to the point where you are stuck23:20
nouckeyisn't it the room for that ?23:20
yvaNobody knows how to encrypting a /home at install (dualboot)?23:20
nouckeyok thanks23:20
rocketsnailyva: I believe you can select that option during Ubuntu installation, yes23:21
nouckeyi'll need to precise a little bit things before : it worked ok (not great but ok) and then last night i updated some stuff then didn't reboot right away. Then it warned me I didn't have much free space but I didn't do anything about it either. Later on my computer froze, as it regularly does (the hardware is pretty shitty)23:22
nouckeyand when I turned it back on it showed me a session screen, that I don't usually have23:22
yvarocketsnail, yes I'm following http://linuxbsdos.com/2014/05/28/how-to-install-ubuntu-14-04-on-encrypted-mbr-partitions/ but the option to first select encrypt then mountpoint doesn't seem to work on 16.0423:22
nouckeyusually I have my desktop23:22
nouckeyand wether I go to my session (correct password) or the guest session, it goes back to the login screen after a couple of seconds23:23
nouckeythat was my initial problem23:23
nouckeynow it's pretty much the same thing except my graphics are fucked and I upgraded to ubuntu 1623:25
sintreguess you can decide which is faster to backup what you can off of your system and reinstall23:26
sintreor spend your time finding some help for a ver odd problem23:26
yvaIt seems that you can't select anything else than crypto23:26
nouckeyoook fair enough, how can I backup from where I'm at ?23:27
sintrewhere are you?23:27

Pelo1968hi folks, I'm trying to get an app to launch on start but I can'T manage it,  the command line I use works in the terminal but if I try in the session dialog is does nothing, I can't even run it in a launcher or in alt-f223:34
gpfor some reason cups is printing my pdf documents with the font upside down. but another desktop isnt. hoping it is because one desktop has the appropriate fonts and the docker image doesnt23:35
sintrenouckey > been there honest a pc dying on you either by os or hardware  hits home23:35
gphas anyone run into that before btw?23:35
gpcups printing pdf text out of place and upside down even though the pdf renders appropriately on screen23:36
sintrenouckey  but best bet is to try and recover anything you can , reinstalling afterwards will probally only take an hour,23:36
Pelo1968gp what prog are you using and have you tried another ?23:36
kk4ewtgp,  yes it turned out i had to upgrade the firmware in the printer23:37

flapzThe header versions in my kernel under apt-cache search exceed what uname -r tells me.23:42
flapzI mean... the kernel header versions in my under apt-cache search exceed what uname -r tells me.23:42
flapzhow do I update the kernel so they match?23:43
Pelo1968flapz, what do you mean exceed ? the version number is higher ?23:43
flapzyes.23:43
nils_flapz, did you perhaps install a kernel from another suite? What version are you running? Are you running a stock kernel?23:43
Pelo1968flapz, apt cache only tells you the available packages not those installed, you need to install it then it will get used ,23:44
nils_flapz, apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)23:44
flapzE: Unable to locate package linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-amd6423:44
ikoniakali....23:44
ikoniadoesn't that just say it all23:44
ikoniaflapz: why are you in #ubuntu asking about Kali ?23:45
flapzI thought they would have similar apt commands to upgrade23:46
nils_ikonia, that's not a kernel I recognize23:46
ikoniathis channel is for UBUNTU23:46
ikoniaand you know this as you're also in the kali channel asking the same thing23:46
flapzno one is alive over there.23:46
ikoniaso you don't come to this channel and expect it to support kali23:47
ikoniayou chose to use kali linux - that includes their support resources23:47
