[00:00] Goodnight mate:) [00:00] Goodnight === Zren_ is now known as Zren [00:00] Hi folks. [00:00] How do I install updates from UNTRUSTED sources? [00:00] It won't let me.. [00:00] Reddiy98i: what is the error? put it into paste.ubuntu.com please [00:01] Hi Reddiy98i:) [00:01] k1l_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23761237/ [00:01] When I click OK it doens't do anything. [00:01] I want to install the packages. [00:01] There's a settings tab to the left I must have to click and configure. [00:02] Reddiy98i: can you use apt on terminal? "sudo apt update" and then "sudo apt install "? and show that on paste.ubuntu.com? (close the software center first) [00:03] Reddiy98i: or what packages are we talking about? do you have .deb pacakges there? [00:03] It's from the Software Update. [00:03] I got these untrusted package updates since I updated my Intel drivers. [00:04] This requires installing packages from unauthenticated sources. [00:04] Then I click OK and nothing updates. [00:04] no key [00:04] But there's a Settings... option I can click [00:05] I must need to config that to let me install untrusted updates [00:05] Reddiy98i: can you please use the terminal as i asked you? that gives better context and errormessages [00:05] do you know how I do that? [00:05] OK, one moment. [00:05] Charles1st No, I don't believe there ever was a movie about you. [00:05] ddquestion, if you mean bit by bit using the bs and count flag then no. Cat is faster but I wouldn't trust it to make a swapfile for example. Dd is more accurate based on various resources on the net. [00:06] k1l_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23761250/ [00:06] Dreaman What key mate? I presume you don't mean you looked under the mat? [00:07] Sorry, that charles1st comment was for a different room:D [00:07] k1l_, Can you figure out what I am to do? [00:07] Wow. [00:07] I just typed xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" [00:08] Reddiy98i parameters your mashine [00:08] And the improvement was dramatic. [00:08] That means my RGB FULL is being reset every time I reboot. [00:08] Reddiy98i: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 56A3DEF863961D39 [00:09] can this be trimmed down any further? hoping to build a little tool that will list displays for users like the one we saw earlier: http://paste.silogroup.org/oluxuhagiz.rb [00:09] k1l_, Fantastic. [00:10] You solved it. Now I am fully upgraded/updated. [00:10] k1l_, How do I get the RGB = FULL to stick so it doesn't reset to limited every time I reboot? [00:10] How do I access my Intel graphics GPU/ [00:10] ? [00:10] Good work k1l_:) [00:12] Reddiy98i: put that into a /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ file [00:12] xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" [00:12] This is what I type to make my RGB = FULL, so this is what needs to go in there. [00:12] dont use Xsession.d [00:13] that isn't what that's for [00:13] that's for launching applications with X [00:13] I hate it when it's really late on a Saturday night, and a beer sounds good, and then you realise you don't have a Pubkey. [00:13] Reddiy98i: yes, but use fullpath for xrandr. so use "/usr/bin/xrandr" there [00:13] what you're looking for is Xorg configuration [00:14] you need to build a Xorg.conf to do that right [00:14] Phanes: that's exactly what xrandr is [00:14] yes but thats not where you call it. xrandr is not for persistent changes [00:14] Phanes: you shouldn't tell people not to use it [00:14] Hi, booted from a pendrive, Ubuntu 16.04.1 64. I want to install beside my existing Win10 on a gpt fmt SSD [00:14] i should because i know their use cases [00:14] So what is the best way to program a persistent change? [00:15] I get the warning in gparted: “physical block size is 2048 bytes, but Linux says it is 512” [00:15] Xsession.d is for 'launch this application in my unique unsupported use case', Xorg.conf is where you make persistent changes like that [00:15] Phanes: so how do you configure xorg.conf snippet for that xrandr command? [00:15] newer Xorg won't have a Xorg.conf as they want to autodetect stuff, so you'll want to create the file [00:16] akik, you can use mine as a template: http://paste.silogroup.org/idayegapoz.vbs [00:16] Phanes, So what shall I do? [00:17] Reddiy98i, see above [00:17] Phanes, Your link? If I use that I'm going to have some probs. [00:17] You have nVidia graphics, for one. I have Intel. [00:17] right you'll want to edit it for your display configuration [00:17] Phanes: i don't have that problem. i'm using Xsession.d [00:17] the names and resolution and placement is what you'd care about [00:18] Phanes: this specific setting cant be set in xorg.conf. so your advise doesnt help. [00:18] Reddiy98i: use my method. it wont hurt but will run that command on every gui login. [00:18] there is not a setting that xrandr has that xorg does not have. [00:18] I need help installing ubuntu 16.0.4.1 on a gpt SSD [00:19] k1l_, not accurate [00:19] gptssddual why not 16.10 [00:19] gptssddual Hello mate:) Someone will be able to help you shortly. [00:19] hello [00:19] k1l_, /usr/bin/xrandr [00:19] What will using this full path accomplish vs xrandr? [00:19] Phanes: i am happy if you look up that setting and how to get it work in xorg.conf. but so long you cant prove it i named a working solution without sideeffects. [00:20] Dreaman, because I need a stable system, I chose LTS [00:20] my X is loading the wrong libglx and wrong nvidia_drv, how can I change this_ [00:20] Like this? /usr/bin/xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" [00:20] k1l_, ill start looking around for it, do you have his hardware profile [00:20] Speiros, thanks for the kind words :-) [00:20] That doesn't do anything. [00:20] Reddiy98i: in scripts its better to go with fullpath and not rely on shortened paths. [00:20] gptssddual ssd driver in 16.04 [00:20] k1l_, How come when I put that in the terminal it does nothing? [00:21] WHen I use this it works: xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" [00:21] not see a hdd ssd [00:21] :) [00:21] Is it already in mbr? [00:21] k1l_, this is a driver option so it's already a little flaky but let's try this first: http://paste.silogroup.org/odaxubosar.vbs [00:21] Dreaman, oh, I see the SSD alright, but I get an ominous warning in gparted: “physical block size is 2048 bytes, but Linux says it is 512 [00:21] my laptop work [00:22] Reddiy98i: "/usr/bin/xrandr --version" does this work? [00:22] ssd is win 10 and 1 tb of hdd 100 gb is ubuntu [00:22] can I remove this without issues? xserver-xorg-core [00:22] k1l_, Yes. [00:22] xrandr program version 1.5.0 [00:22] Server reports RandR version 1.5 [00:22] press ignore gptssddual [00:22] gptssddual All good mate. Hopefully your issue will be resolved. [00:22] serdar: no. [00:22] ehm, actually that should go in the Device section [00:22] Reddiy98i: so does the other command. but it doesnt change something since its already changed [00:23] k1l_, You're right. [00:23] It only works if the change can be made. if it's already changed it does nothing. [00:23] Interesting. [00:23] darn [00:23] OK, so I need to put this in the persistent file: /usr/bin/xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" [00:23] Which file? [00:23] it provides a libglx.so which is used by xorg [00:24] basedmars, do you know the cause for that warning? I had a long install time installing two other OS'es (one of which is Windows) on the SSD so I don; t want to waste my work, that's why :-) [00:24] instead it should load this /usr/lib/nvidia-375/xorg/libglx.so [00:24] Reddiy98i: create a new on in the named folder. like 41-fullrgb [00:25] k1l_, in etc X11 Xsession.d? [00:25] I use a gpt which converted from mbr gptssddual . That could be the cause of it [00:25] basedmars, If I know know the cause of the warning and *why* I can ignore it, I would be reassured. [00:25] k1l_, Do you know why full RGB is not enabled by default? [00:25] gptssddual: that warning could be shown, since the ubuntu-live-usb has a different sector size on the usb and on the "burned" .iso file used [00:26] Reddiy98i: yes in that folder. [00:26] Reddiy98i: i dont know. maybe your monitor is seen as tv, which do have that settings [00:26] k1l_, Why do you say call it 41-fullrbg? [00:26] What's the 41 for? [00:27] Reddiy98i: the .d folder is run through by a script which starts the files with commands after their numbering. [00:27] Reddiy98i: same goes for grub.d folder. or motd.d folders etc. [00:27] That warning is a must I think, since we're dealing with hard disk partition table and the partition itself here. It could lead to data loss if done uncorrectly, hence warning are useful [00:27] k1l_, ah, so gparted would stick wth the size reported by the ISO and not overwrite things it should not? Currently when I lookup my NFS partitions in gfdisk, they all show up as type 83 linux, with misaligned cylinders. === Smn is now known as Guest47981 [00:28] ^ NFS -> NTFS [00:28] k1l_, I'm in that folder now and it won't let me create a new document. [00:28] Why is that? [00:28] k1l_, that made me a bit worried to press on and potentially ruin the present installs... [00:29] k1l_, for future reference: https://www.x.org/archive/X11R7.5/doc/man/man4/intel.4.html | it may be called "LVDS24Bit" instead of "Broadcast RGB" as a device section item though, i can't test without his hardware [00:29] Reddiy98i: since its system folders you need admin permissions. use nano: "sudo nano /etc/X11/Xsession.d/41-fullrgb" then paste it into nano. then press ctrl+o for saving, and then ctrl+x for leaving [00:30] k1l_, What is your role on the Ubuntu team? [00:31] k1l_, Phanes was saying you had something wrong. [00:31] Reddiy98i: just supporter and irc operator. [00:31] basedmars, thank you for the explanation. [00:32] k1l_ nervious and lame :) [00:32] i wouldn't call it wrong, just that Xsession.d is not intended for driver option calls from xrandr. This will still work but can become a slippery slope. I think the link does a better job explaining the options. [00:32] Phanes, Which link? [00:32] but what you've been given will absolutely work [00:32] Phanes, What is your role on the Ubuntu team? [00:32] Dreaman Seems to be getting a lot accomplished, from where I'm viewing. [00:32] Reddiy98i, dedicated troll and eater of thinly sliced brisket. [00:32] * Phanes tips hat [00:33] Speiros but my mashines work [00:33] I'd prefer taking advice from a team memberf. [00:33] lol [00:33] yeah actually I'm answering question without answering question gptssddual . I'm a noob so I try guesswork and got humbled by real a real expertise answer. I hope someone could help you with this. [00:33] Does anyone here know how to patch NES roms to play homebrew mods? The mods are .ips files [00:33] 1 hour videocard [00:34] problems [00:34] Dreaman Yes, that may be the case, yet apparently so does k1l_'s machine, and he/she is helping others with theirs. [00:34] basedmars, I hope so too, since the [00:34] and +q some times [00:34] :) [00:35] Reddiy98i work or not this intel video card [00:35] basedmars, I hope so too. Until know I feel uneasy about going ahead with the install. I am using Linux since 1997 and I never got a warning like this. [00:36] Dreaman, It's an Intel video card, yes. [00:36] Dreaman, Why? [00:36] my is but in a i7 processor [00:36] basedmars, know -> now [00:36] and nvidia video dual [00:36] my laptop [00:38] Dreaman I don't understand. What does that mean? [00:38] gptssddual: the warning is from the usb drive when opening gparted. [00:39] k1l_, so if I understand correctly the USB uses 2048 size blocks while the live kernel reports 512 byte blocks? [00:39] 4x [00:39] or is that the other way around? [00:40] gptssddual: no. the usb hardware got 512 sectors and you burned a iso on it with 2048 sectors on it. (or vice versa.) [00:41] its just telling that you have a hardware vs Filesystem missmatch on some disk. but since that is a known issue with usb pendrives and new ubuntu isos you get that for the live usb itself, too === marlonspawn is now known as cody- [00:42] k1l_, ok, that makes sense. In that case I'll creat the soft-RAID1 on the twin HDD's and use my SSD for the /boot and / [00:43] chege the boot hdd [00:43] change [00:44] ssd and normal hdd [00:44] Dreaman, please elaborate, I don't get what you are trying to tell me. [00:44] ok [00:45] Hi. My computer died! Not sure if this is the right place but atm i'm running Memtest86+ and i need to know, when does it finish? How do i know when it's done? [00:46] Rhombix, you mean your computer crashed? If it were dead you would not be able to run Memtest, now would you? [00:46] It looks as if the test reached 100% and started again [00:47] gptssddual I think Dreaman is saying that you don't necessarily have to have /boot as a separate partition. [00:47] gptssddual: it crashed on me, then crashed when i rebooted. i chose Memtest in the BIOS [00:48] Rhombix, did the "pass" parameter increment when it got to 100%? In that case the Memory would seem fine (at least on the first pass). Did you see any errors being reported?\ [00:48] is there a dedicated ubuntu for the pi or is raspbian "it" [00:49] Speiros, thank you for the translation ;-) I normally don' t use a separate /boot partition, sorry for the confusion, Dreaman [00:50] :) [00:50] * Phanes has read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RaspberryPi but is unsure if this is ubuntu or an ubuntu-like flavor (are there things that are going to be missing) [00:51] there is no ubuntu for the first pi since that arm chip is way too old. there are builds for rpi2 and rpi3 [00:51] if im reading right ill need to build out from a -server base image and then turn on hw accel in a custom xorg.conf? [00:52] https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23761422/ [00:52] Rhombix What's happening now? [00:53] interesting work [00:53] intel driver an ssd [00:53] gptssddual: it's all ASCII, there are two bars ("Pass" and "Test") and Test completes every couple of minutes, Pass has reached 100% once but it started again and it's now on 46%. Memtest has been running for about an hour. [00:53] Speiros: same [00:54] Rhombix, sounds perfectly normal to me. Again, did you get any errors? [00:55] Phanes, which generation of RaspPI are you using? [00:55] gptssddual, its a pi3 [00:55] gptssddual, most expensive alarm clock ever :) [00:56] Phanes, no worries then, as k1l_ already told you, go right ahead and install the Ubuntu for the PI3 [00:56] gptssddual: there's a notice in the bottom half of the screen: Memory SPD Informations - it lists two things, one of them has the word 'Crucial' in it [00:56] actually, both [00:57] gptssddual, im evaluating versus an existing raspbian install on it, thanks though [00:57] Panes, if it's an alarm clock, you are going for, you are probably better off using a simpler module, like the Arduino Nano. [00:57] Slot 0: 4096 MB DDR3-1600 - Crucial STxxxx etc [00:57] not sure if arduino has the muscle to host a vnc server [00:58] * Phanes checks [00:58] Phanes, sorry for misspelling your nick there :-/ [00:58] lol [00:58] Phanes, probably not, forget what I had said then. That is some Alarm Clock you are going for.. Whoha. [00:59] lol. it'll fill multiple purposes throughout the house, least of which is a core module for a house-wide sound system, alarm clock, weather app, and ad-hoc desktop via vnc [01:00] This is important for me, because it's 1am here and the test has been running for ~70min. I want to know when I can go to sleep. [01:00] My old alarm clock had just two chips on it, some passives, a 4x7-segment display and a simple psu and that was your lot... [01:01] Rhombix, the test runs infinitely long if you haven't specified the number of passes it must complete. [01:02] What? [01:02] I just ran the test, there was no such dialogue [01:02] Rhombix, Crucial is probably the brand marked in the SPD. [01:02] oh [01:02] Rhombix, you do know what the SPD is, don't you? [01:03] gptssddual: it's a component, right? idk exactly [01:04] makes more sense though, given the wording around 'cruciat'. [01:04] 'crucial' [01:04] Okay people. Enjoy your days. Sleep overdue by 24 hours. [01:05] Rhombix, it's a simple ROM containing some static data that identifies the memory module, such as CAS latency, access speed and the make of the chip, in your case, the chips have been branded "Crucial" [01:05] Hi All - noob here - My software center just stopped working. I tried reinstalling sudo apt-get but no luck - any thoughts? [01:05] Speiros, sleep well :-) and thanks for the help! [01:05] HomeSchoolDad, launch it from the terminal and use a pastebin to give us the output [01:05] when it crashes [01:06] Phanes: ok stand by [01:06] HomeSchoolDad, you'll need sudo for that... [01:06] gptssddual: thanks for all the help. if it's completed once it's probably safe to turn off now. [01:06] good night :) [01:06] HomeSchoolDad: what means "stopped working"? [01:06] Rhombix, good night :-) [01:07] Phanes: noob here - command line for running software center? [01:07] no clue i live in a world of cold menacing terminals [01:08] k1l_: it will not launch from the gui [01:08] gptssddual: i have sudo [01:09] HomeSchoolDad: doest it load at all? [01:09] HomeSchoolDad: what ubuntu is it? [01:09] HomeSchoolDad, the same as Phanes really. I don't know the real name as binary... [01:10] i think it's `software-center` [01:10] HomeSchoolDad: open a terminal and run "software-center" [01:10] k1l_: no - 16.04 [01:10] Ah, yes, that would make sense, so HomeSchoolDad, please run the following line: sudo software-center & [01:11] detach is unnecessary [01:11] gptssddual: no. dont run sudo with gui programs [01:11] gksudo [01:11] gptssddual: it launched with "software-center" [01:11] k1l_, ah, yes gksudo, that you for the correction [01:11] that -> thank [01:11] and it will ask for root permissions with udev. doesnt need to be started with root [01:12] k1l_, seems I need to learn a thing or two about GUI tools... [01:12] * Phanes eyeballs that posix/lsb spec [01:13] gptssddual: here is the paste bin : http://pastebin.com/U8tP8Pi1 but it DID launch this time [01:14] woof, that gi error. [01:14] gptssddual: it looks like the 14.04 version [01:14] HomeSchoolDad, have you done anything odd like remove python2 or try to move from py2 to py3 [01:14] Phanes: nope [01:15] Phanes: i ran updates [01:15] i dont see unusal errors there [01:15] yeah wouldn't be fatal, but is there a branch on github i can fix those on while its in front of me [01:16] * Phanes gets his fork out [01:17] k1l_: it looks like the old version, but it seems to be running (shrug) [01:17] HomeSchoolDad: does it work now with the launcher icon? [01:17] k1l_: stand by [01:17] HomeSchoolDad, odd that it exits with status 0, usually that means: no errors. [01:18] k1l_: it does NOT launch from the gui [01:18] * Phanes tries to remember if xdg-open would launch that .desktop file [01:18] k1l_: it pops right up from terminal [01:19] it does [01:19] gptssddual: IDK - the gui is not working but it come right up form command line [01:20] HomeSchoolDad, find out the path of the .desktop file the icon points to and then in the term just `xdg-open $that_path` [01:20] HomeSchoolDad: can you try the "gnome-software" too? [01:21] k1l_: gmone-software does nothing [01:21] HomeSchoolDad, do you need to install an app in a hurry? In that case you could install synaptic and search for the app there... [01:22] gptssddual: i need cad for robotics team [01:22] HomeSchoolDad, synaptic is not as flashy as Software-Center, but it will get the job done. [01:22] HomeSchoolDad: you could use "sudo apt install packagename" in the meantime [01:22] Also true, but the you'd need to know the package name first. [01:23] gptssddual: sudo apt-get synaptic ? [01:23] or uh, we could xdg-open the .desktop file the icon points to, ya know, like the gui does. [01:23] HomeSchoolDad, that's it [01:23] gptssddual: thanks! [01:23] o_O [01:24] since 16.04 the gnome-software is the new software-center [01:24] HomeSchoolDad: make sure you dont have the typo you made before in "gnome-software" [01:24] Phanes, your solution is also good of course. I might be a bit biased against software center... [01:25] oh, not a solution its a testing process [01:25] it tells you what's broken [01:25] k1l_ and is a jocke [01:26] not as low level as a strace but that's not needed for gtk apps usually [01:26] Phanes, yes, but what if HomeSchoolDad is in a hurry, than it's better to get to the goal quickly and skip the analysis until he has time ;-) [01:26] gptssddual, O_o [01:26] k1l_: gnome-software does not repspond [01:26] * Phanes goes away to do something else [01:27] you guys are awesome [01:27] HomeSchoolDad, what kind of CAD program do you need? [01:28] Hello worldQ [01:28] HomeSchoolDad just terminal sudo su pass apt install synaptic open see the repos and install evrithing [01:28] g [01:28] Dreaman: HomeSchoolDad dont do sudo su. that is not good advice. [01:28] 'install everything' is generally frowned upon lol [01:28] generic: basic - i want to show some concepts to my team - i don't have a windows PC to run the FIRST software [01:29] k1l_: thanks [01:29] su not work not debian [01:29] HomeSchoolDad, try librecad [01:29] nikolov@ubuntu-ivan:~$ su [01:29] Парола: [01:29] su: Грешка при удостоверяване [01:29] nikolov@ubuntu-ivan:~$ [01:30] Librecad [01:30] :) [01:30] gptssddual: that's what i just grabbed! thanks [01:30] dreaman [01:30] HomeSchoolDad, np [01:30] от българия ли си [01:30] Hi!

I am cloning this repo inside my Vagrant box and then running the script [01:32] gptssddual not russians [01:32] Bulgarians [01:33] guess i'm the only one with issues running apt upgrade? [01:33] Dreaman, generic sorry, my Cyrillian is not that good to see the difference. [01:33] Industrial, is the script running as root? [01:33] It's okay same lango [01:33] I speak russian as well lol [01:34] generic, sorta, anyway, we speak English here on this channel :-) [01:34] tjsimmons: does sudo apt update work? [01:34] Yea we have to otherwise we will get asskicked [01:34] gptssddual you canadian [01:34] :) [01:34] k1l_: i'm running as root in an lxc container. it runs, but hangs on every package [01:34] Dreaman, no, I' m Dutch [01:35] a ok [01:35] tjsimmons: does it work on apt update to get a proper clean list? [01:35] Dreaman, but I have nothing against Canadians ;-) [01:35] k1l_: it doesn't fail, and reads all the sources [01:35] ok :) [01:36] tjsimmons: ok, so its not a connection issue at all or a ipv6 issue or such [01:37] right [01:37] whoa, I'm running a Live environment now and the time seems to be off, it' s actually 2:35 AM here. I need to get to bed! [01:37] right now it's stuck on updating bash [01:37] 100% downloaded it says [01:37] Industrial, https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/blob/master/src/chsh.c <-- i think this is what youre looking for [01:37] "98% [1 bash 583 kB/583 kB 100%]" [01:38] Phanes: no it's running as use 'ubuntu' [01:38] Phanes: wat? I don't know C :-) [01:38] Dreaman, Phanes, k1l_ , thank you so much for the help. I need to catch some ZZzzz's before I mess up two days of work ;-) [01:39] Industrial, it either needs a password supplied via expect (man expect), run as sudo privs (man sudoers), the line directly injected into /etc/passwd (requires root, and dont), or you can copy that source and im pretty sure you'll still need pass or root, but, could hardcode (dont do that) [01:40] in short, re-evaluate what you want to do. [01:41] In other words: Good everyone, I'm going to bed... [01:41] Okay, well I guess I can just add it as a post-install script to be ran in an interactive session so I can supply the password at the right time (after ssh-ing into the vagrant box) [01:41] Phanes: thanks for the thinking/time :) [01:41] yep [01:41] Phanes: however vagrant uses keyfiles and not passwords so I don't know the password to the ubuntu user. [01:41] but I'll get that sorted :D [01:41] Industrial, also (man sed) (think sudo) (think dont) [01:42] Apt log is also empty [01:43] This is pretty rad. With just a Vagrantfile and one command (vagrant up) I get a complete development station with programming tools, IDE configured, shell etc and also a window manager. Any new stuff I'll just add a new install script and press DESTROY and RECREATE.. awzum =D [01:43] you know you can build your own vagrant images right [01:43] instead of post-installs [01:43] k1l_, I' m switching to the server installer, so I can setup RAID1 and lvm properly before actually installing. [01:44] I can take a vagrant box state and generate an image off of it to work from in another Vagrantfile? [01:44] there's a little more setup but yes [01:44] tjsimmons: i am not familiar with lxc and if that is some sort of lxc issue with diskspace or such [01:44] Cool. I could specialize the box for each project and add required tools .. but that might be a bit overkill :D [01:45] it is a pretty common approach [01:45] Plus I wouldnt want to force my personal homefile on someone else using it [01:45] k [01:46] Signing off... [01:46] Industrial, a fully functional environment should be immediate after launching a new container if youre hoping for a smooth sdlc [01:47] Maybe I just need to use an Ubuntu mirror repo? [01:48] tjsimmons, im not really getting a feel for what your issue is doing [01:48] you've got an lxc container deployed, apt upgrade is stalling after the first package? [01:51] Phanes: yes [01:51] basically [01:51] tjsimmons, can you copy what happens in your term, and paste the dmesg as well [01:51] (guest dmesg) [01:53] while installing ubuntu, i chose to encrypt my whole disk. later, i also checked a box saying i want my personal data to be encrypted. what does the latter even mean? and will it even make any difference... [01:55] Phanes: sec [01:56] http://pastebin.com/uhWH898Q [01:56] terminal output. it eventually starts timing out connections [01:56] tjsimmons, journalctl -n 30 [01:57] HOWDY PEOPLE! I am having an issue that maybe you all can help with. I have cinnamon running, and there is no keyboard shortcut to toggle the case (uppertcase/lowercase) of whatever text I have highlighted. How do i tell the custom keyboard shortcut to do that with my key combo? [01:57] tjsimmons: how long did you wait? could be it is calculating stuff in the background for that upgrade [01:58] i don't see anything useful in dmesg or journalctl [01:58] k1l_: until they timed out. few minutes? [01:58] hello... I've plugged an internal HDD on my PC while it was on. The HDD gets properly recognized w/out any problem. Does it mean it's hot swappable? Or do I still face chance of data loss? [01:58] timing out? hmm. [01:58] yeah, the connections to archive.ubuntu.com [01:59] what does `curl -I http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/` net you [01:59] (from that same guest) [02:00] Do i have to point the shortcut gui to a... bin file? or something? [02:01] that curl isn't installed. haha. sec [02:01] futurama140, yeah keyboard macros to executable [02:01] well, i can install curl just fine [02:01] Phanes: it gave me the html from that page [02:01] so that worked [02:01] tjsimmons, can i see the output of your `df -h` [02:02] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/dWNMsg7P/ [02:02] Phanes: i really still dont know my way around the fileing system, how would i go about finding the file? [02:03] futurama140, im not aware of an executable that would change text case for whatever text is highlighted in X you may need to write a macro that wraps around the clipboard [02:04] Phanes: wow im in over my head, this will take a while... [02:04] futurama140, you could also bind the key in vim [02:04] it'll be a little easier to do than that [02:07] eh, i can do better than that [02:07] check out xclip [02:07] xdotool [02:07] futurama140, `xclip -o -sel p | tr '[:lower:][:upper:]' '[:upper:][:lower:]' | xclip -i -sel c; xdotool key Shift+Insert` or something to that affect [02:08] not responsible for side effects [02:09] Phanes: im willing to take the chance. im a totaql n00b, though, what do i do with that string? [02:09] you want to build a script and bind your macro key to that script [02:10] futurama140, http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html [02:10] futurama140, and please be aware that this is outside the scope of ubuntu, you'll get better help from here in #bash since you're writing a bash script [02:10] Phanes: ok, thanks. just got a bit of reading to do then. im sure it'll be immensely useful [02:11] its a good guide for starting out [02:11] Phanes: I realize this isnt really the appropriate room, but it's the only one that ever has any activity! [02:13] no worries. you'll turn that noobsauce into dry linuxer sarcasm in no time. [02:20] [02:23] eh whtever. using the mirror at kernel.org solved my upgrade issues [02:23] no idea what's going on with me and archive.ubuntu.com [02:25] hey could someone help me out? I'm trying to boot a windows 10 usb off of hardware that was previously configured running ubuntu on. Anyway, when i try to boot it just loads grub every time? i don't know how to boot the usb? [02:25] talk to ##windows, you're probably having issues with your BIOS/UEFI boot order [02:25] ok [02:25] yeah almost 100% that's it [02:25] cool thanks guys [02:25] you aren't interrupting your boot sequence to pick usb before it hits your main boot drive [02:26] (i.e. current OS is irrelevant) [02:26] Phanes: I had this http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Commands-For-Text.html#Commands-For-Text pulled up earlier, and i noticed the bash command for doing exactly what i want. does that make my job any easier? [02:26] tjsimmons i would hit F11 to select a boot option, and when i select the drive, it goes straight to grub [02:27] ah, then maybe it can't find anything to boot off of on that usb [02:28] I need help with my Ubuntu install [02:29] Oh wait nvm [02:31] CIao [02:31] :) [02:31] Italiani??

[02:54] Rufus works good on Windows [02:54] I'm running ubuntu 16.10 [02:54] I use gnome disk utility [02:55] gnome disk utility can make bootable disk ? cna you guide through ?

I will get back to you with result. [03:03] weswes887: One more question, I can see from disk utility that there is one 80MiB Loop Device created autometically, (/var/lib/snapd/snaps/core_714.snap) I don't know how and for what it created, any idea ? [03:03] Nope [03:03] Idk if it is a ubuntu thing or what (I use Arch and Opensuse mostly) [03:04] mcafeemedia: nothing major yet, would need to get a closer look at the audio and its sub system [03:04] tatertots: if what I'm reading is correct the board (z170x gaming 5 gigabyte) is capable of pushing dolbydigital thru optical out (which is what I'm using) but is currently pushing PCM (2.1 surround) [03:04] ok. my bootable USB disk created, let me try to reboot my device and check whether it works or not. [03:05] tatertots: let me log into this channel from my laptop and I'm going to check the bios and make sure i'm not missing a toggle somewhere [03:05] mcafeemedia: install inxi and let's take a look and figure some stuff out [03:05] tatertots: ok, shutdown -a ;) [03:06] mcafeemedia: don't forget to install inxi [03:06] tatertots: installed [03:07] mcafeemedia: inxi -Fxrzc0|nc termbin.com 9999 [03:07] tatertots: kshj [03:08] Mozammel: The loop device is probaly a mounted disk image or something [03:10] mcafeemedia: modinfo snd_hda_intel|nc termbin.com 9999 [03:11] tatertots: gfcy [03:11] mcafeemedia: what are you using as your > 2.1 source sound to test with?

[03:14] You're welcome, gnome disks is a great application [03:14] tatertots: termbin 38yh for output from speaker-test [03:14] how is ubuntu working on the pi zero? [03:16] mcafeemedia: hardware looks to be capable, it'd have to be something with your configuration [03:17] Bedtime for me. [03:17] tatertots: yeah, that's why i'm here, the ubuntu wiki for surround sound has a bunch of stuff that is old or doesn't work, and one link is malicious [03:17] Wish me sweet dreams. [03:18] * mcafeemedia wishes KSIGNSIPA sweet dreams [03:18] mcafeemedia: you should try playing some true, Dobly digital 5.1/Dobly DTS source material to test with. Like a dvd movie or something that would have true DD 5.1 raw [03:19] how can I set up my wireless as an access point from the command line? [03:19] or hotspot [03:19] tatertots: there is a website that runs 5.1 tests, i'm assuming the file from their is true 5.1 [03:19] tatertots: think i could produce one in audacity? [03:20] mcafeemedia: if you play the file back you can observe it's properties [03:20] tatertots: Oin rhythmbox? [03:21] mcafeemedia: use the default video player to play the audio file [03:21] mcafeemedia: then observe it's properties [03:21] tatertots: opening an mkv of Django Unchained, I know it was 5.1, next i'll grab that audio file.... what do you mean observe? [03:22] tatertots: just right click the file? Or do you mean just listen to it? [03:22] mcafeemedia: observe=look at [03:22] mcafeemedia: you have to play the file in the video player to observe it's properties page in the video player [03:23] tatertots: oh, gotcha, also does ubuntu have a version of the screen cmd built in, if so..what is it? [03:24] Hey guys [03:24] I"m on 16.04, xps935.

[03:41] mcafeemedia: you should report those in #ubuntu-wiki [03:41] mcafeemedia: i'm just glad you got your 5.1 surround sound working, that documentation will sort itself out over time in the long run......maybe [03:42] tatertots: LOL doubtful, I reported it in #ubuntu-docs but that's a barren waste [03:42] it does! sweet i learned something about chroot and now know less about how chroot works than before i knew it.

[06:23] on the linux side? [06:28] Hi niggers. [06:29] TragicM3LON, no, windows boot will not recognize linux, afaik [06:29] tearfree prevents lines like fire right ? [06:30] when i see fire on video it´s like alotta images see lines [06:30] just trying to get this system to recognize a windows usb, to install windows, but grub keeps pulling up [06:31] wanna run videos smooth with radeon II [06:31] TragicM3LON, Is your Windows USB bootable? Are you be able to boot from USB in BIOS? [06:31] TragicM3LON, that's not grub and that's not how you launch windows. you need to reboot, hit your bios and choose your boot devide [06:31] device [06:31] i've done that [06:31] it still goes to grub [06:31] so i don't know what's going on [06:31] TragicM3LON, you need to reinstall MFT first. i know there's instructions, but can't remember where they are [06:32] boot- priority perhaps ? [06:32] TragicM3LON, check your manual. it will tell you how to boot from selected media [06:32] TragicM3LON, When you boot to USB is it going straight to the HDD boot? [06:32] i know how to, but when i select the USB it goes right to grub [06:32] i hit F11 to select a boot device, select the USB, goes right to grub [06:32] usb? you have windows on a usb? [06:33] TragicM3LON, Are there any HDD activities? [06:33] yes i created a bootable USB [06:33] in any case, "how do I boot windows"? is a ##windows query or - again - read your hardware manual. [06:33] ya well felt like a linux thing, since it keeps pulling up grub [06:33] and lets face it, the windows people don't know how to do this [06:34] TragicM3LON, How did you make your USB bootable? dd? [06:34] i tried dd and then tried Etcher to see if dd wasn't working [06:34] As discussed last time, this is not an #ubuntu issue. Your computer not booting a Windows install disk is irrelevant to #ubuntu, and unaffected by your currently-installed OS> [06:35] also off-topic = "make a windows usb" [06:35] ^ [06:35] Hello, my root account is being actively bruteforced through SSH. Any advice on how I can globally drop attempts for about 10 minutes after a few failed connection attempts? [06:35] TragicM3LON, Ask on ##windows. [06:35] Yes, I think we've covered that. [06:35] i'll try again there, last time the ppl just went off in Russian [06:35] so whatever [06:35] LoganDark: so is every other public ssh server. Ignore it, or change port, or use fail2ban/denyhosts [06:36] (or firewall it off) [06:36] dax didn't expect the rudeness, but I will check out fail2ban thanks [06:36] Wasn't being rude, it is what it is. [06:36] how to update "hexchat" on ubuntu? [06:37] digital_ghost, sudo apt install hexchat [06:37] LoganDark: people often think it's them specifically getting targeted and get worked up about it. Hence me mentioning that we all get that. [06:38] cfhowlett: i already installed it, my version is 2year old, i want to upgrade to latest hexchat version [06:38] dax: All I'm asking for is a way to automatically ban IPs after failed connection attempts. I don't need any extra info [06:38] But thanks anyway [06:38] digital_ghost, open a terminal : hexchat --version [06:38] LoganDark: fail2ban or denyhosts will both do that, in case you disregarded the rest of the sentence [06:38] 2.10.2 is the latest in the ubuntu repos digital_ghost [06:39] LoganDark: though I think one is unmaintained, so I recommend looking at both [06:39] in case you disregarded the rest of my sentence, I already said, I quote "but I will check out fail2ban thanks" [06:39] LoganDark: ah, good. I forgot you said that. [06:39] lol [06:39] IRC goes by quick doesn't it [06:40] I'm doing 10 things at once right now, also -_- [06:40] Lol [06:41] cfhowlett: my client broke today and i got banned, somebody told hexchat is overflooding because i am using the old unstable version [06:41] Lol [06:43] digital_ghost, use xchat [06:43] lol [06:43] digital_ghost, What Ubuntu version? [06:43] or bitchX [06:44] xXEofla0Exx: 16.04 LTS [06:45] digital_ghost, It seems that you may have to upgrade to Yakkety to get the latest version of HexChat. [06:46] xXEofla0EXx: can i update using other repos? [06:46] digital_ghost, mixing repos = breaking ubuntu [06:47] msg ubottu yakkety hexchat [06:47] digital_ghost, and yakkety has 2.12.02-2ubuntu2 same as xenial [06:47] woah, i'm on 16.04 and my hexchat is current [06:48] 2.12.4 [06:48] hi [06:48] ObrienDave, ! really? [06:48] yes [06:48] ppa? [06:48] hi [06:49] hi? [06:49] Or one could read the download section https://hexchat.github.io/downloads.html [06:49] ask your ubuntu question sohum_ [06:49] PPA, snap, etc [06:49] digital_ghost, Download hexchat and hexchat repositories from yakkety or use the download link above ^^ [06:49] how do you overclock? [06:49] im noob [06:49] sohum_, wrong channel. ask #hardware [06:50] oops srr [06:50] im noob [06:50] cfhowlett, no, official repos [06:51] ObrienDave, https://launchpad.net/~gwendal-lebihan-dev/+archive/ubuntu/hexchat-stable 2.12.0-2-xenial ... unless you snapped or something [06:51] hi folks, apologies if this isn't the right place for this question -- I'm using 14.04 in a Docker container to try to build a library that uses OpenGL. I'm using conda to build it like this: https://github.com/ccordoba12/pcl-conda-recipes/blob/master/pcl/meta.yaml [06:52] the problem is I get errors like this: "make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib64/libGLU.so', needed by `lib/libpcl_surface.so.1.8.0'. Stop." -- it's as if cmake was able to find OpenGL, but then fails to link with it [06:52] what is this channel topic [06:52] ? [06:52] oh, my bad, getdeb ppa, sorry [06:52] sohum__, read your topic [06:52] * cfhowlett delivers smack to side of ObrienDave's head to force recalibration [06:52] a[0]: are you chatting from 14.04 right now? yes or no [06:53] tatertots: no, the stuff I'm talking about is all happening inside docker [06:53] a[0]: or you have console level access to 14.04? [06:54] a[0]: i understand inside the docker [06:54] a[0]: do you have access to the 14.04 system right now? [06:54] cfhowlett, lol [06:54] hey [06:55] I have a service that prevents boot process to finish [06:55] a[0]: meaning can you open terminal in the 14.04 environment you have? yes or no [06:55] I was wondering how I can disable it easily [06:55] (16.04) [06:55] Mister_X, What service that prevents Ubuntu from booting? [06:56] tatertots: apart from connectivity issues to a remote machine, I can run a shell in it, inside docker, yes. "the 14.04 system" is a just FROM line in a dockerfile [06:56] if you're not booted, I don't see a service blocking your boot, Mister_X [06:56] dnscrypt-proxy [06:56] cfhowlett, not sure to follow you [06:56] a[0]: i'm just asking if you have live, realtime administrative level access to the 14.04 system right now? [06:59] yes [06:59] a[0]: do you want to find tshoot and find out why it can't find OpenGL [07:00] a[0]: step #1 install inxi, inxi is in the official ubuntu repositories making it easy to find in the gui software manager, or your preferred installation method. [07:01] a[0]: step #1 install inxi, inxi is in the official ubuntu repositories making it easy to find in the gui software manager, or your preferred installation method. also making it easy to see details and possibly community reviews and such [07:02] a[0]: once you have inxi installed let me know, then we'll go to step #2 [07:05] a[0]: are you familiar with installing software in a 14.04 environment? do i need to provide you with the steps? [07:06] tatertots: i am, but I think it will be more effective for me to gather the Dockerfile and small handful of files; the issue should be exactly reproducible [07:06] just another minute or two === farhad is now known as Guest30632 [07:09] tatertots: this should reproduce the problem https://gist.github.com/jtbandes/14e0c5a285a4fee969a562a49fd60da9 [07:10] I had to modify things slightly because gist doesn't accept files nested in dirs; running again myself to verify. but basically follow the instructions in the first file, and you will ultimately see the failure on the last step [07:10] any way to abort a service startup while the system is booting? [07:10] a[0]: well no step #2 for you is all i'm reading [07:10] dnscrypt-proxy is hanging and preventing the whole system to boot [07:11] a[0]: and that's perfectly acceptable [07:11] a[0]: take care, and good luck [07:11] Mister_X, Are you able to boot into recovery mode? [07:12] thanks [07:12] yes [07:12] but when getting a root shell, after a minute, screen gets messed up [07:13] a[0]: do they have #docker irc channels on freenode that you're aware of? [07:13] Mister_X, Did the screen actually distort or does the text get mixed? and what happens when you remove dnscrypt-proxy? [07:14] tatertots: there probably is one. but I figured it's more about the OS than about docker itself. I haven't used this channel really before so I wasn't sure whether it's totally on topic here [07:14] text gets mixed [07:15] sometimes, it gets back in the menu [07:15] there may also be some Stack Exchange site where this is appropriate, but I don't think Stack Overflow is quite right for it [07:16] a[0]: yes i agree, i'm wondering why you're seeming to avoid rolling up your sleeves and trouble shooting at the 14.04 level, is it due to you not being truly familiar enough with it from a system administrative perspective? [07:16] a[0]: that means being at that 14.04 console with administrative credentials [07:16] Mister_X, Maybe use: echo manual | sudo tee /etc/init/dnscrypt-proxy.override [07:16] https://docs.docker.com/opensource/get-help/ tatertots [07:17] I guess I don't quite know what "troubleshooting at the 14.04 level" means. I'll admit I am not the most experienced 14.04 sysadmin, but I am certainly familiar enough to have provided what I believe are exact repro steps for my problem inside a container [07:17] jajajajaja [07:17] jajajajaja [07:17] jajajajaja [07:17] jajajajaja [07:17] jajajajaja [07:17] jajajajaja [07:17] jajajajaja [07:17] jajajajaja [07:17] jajajajaja [07:17] jajajajaja === uuapr is now known as gnvmzpp === gnvmzpp is now known as gsbclq [07:21] tatertots: (you probably want to resend that, it got blocked by the spam filter) [07:22] ok [07:22] anyone have any thoughts as to why networking.service takes so long to come up?

I'm trying to upgrade from 15.04 to 16.10 via USB, I'm just wondering if the installer will delete my music files. [08:07] Sam-Vesta If it's an upgrade, technically it's not supposed to, but why risk it? Do you have an external drive or something? [08:08] Sam-Vesta, possibly but that's why you backed everything up first, right? RIGHT? [08:08] I don't. I'm in a bit of a bind. Laptop doesn't have a CD drive. [08:09] Ah, I had one of those, but was installed with windows. [08:09] I'd love to do a backup, but I don't have the resources for it. Money tight, old laptop died, I'm lucky I was able to get the HD into this old spare. [08:09] if's it's not important enough to back up, it's not important enough to save. [08:10] Sam-Vesta Are you an artist, or a listener? [08:11] Listener. [08:11] Sam-Vesta Because maybe you can encrypt the files and save them to some cloud. But personally I minimise cloud stuff, although it's near impossible these days. [08:12] Speiros: So the usual behavior for Ubuntu when it installs on a partition is to keep the old (non-system) files if it's a compatible linux install? [08:13] Sam-Vesta I've never gone so far as to testing it. I delete the whole hard drive and reload, and have my files externally...but I'm quite sure. Before doing it, have a look on the ubuntu wiki. I'll try to find a link. [08:13] Thanks for the help, I appreciate it. [08:15] Where'd he go?

So you can see that an external file system and the ext4 are different things? [09:57] strange something corrupted my fstab [09:58] Speiros: I found that, there is an ext4 in my fstab, but I introduced xfs there [09:58] strange [09:59] and this is also wrong... UUID=C246-A538 /boot/efi vfat umask=0077 0 1 [10:00] Serdar1 I'm not experienced enough to know what the issue is here. [10:00] Serdar1: what is wrong about the efi entry? [10:01] why is there a vfat, I never did that [10:01] also /boot is not an extra partition [10:01] ah, /boot/efi is the windows bootloader I guess. [10:01] Serdar1: it's the efi system partition, you need that. [10:01] Speiros: I did not introduce it, that's the case [10:02] ducasse: this is new to me. the last time I installed linux I only used /boot partition or none, but efi system partition... [10:02] Serdar1 What is the system you're introducing? Is it 16:4, 16:10, or something else? [10:02] 16.10 [10:02] Ok, thanks [10:03] Speiros: if your machine already had windows installed the esp would already be there, otherwise you would need to create it. this is probably your first uefi system, that's why you haven't seen it before. [10:04] ducasse To Serdar1? [10:04] bad tab complete :) [10:04] :) [10:04] ducasse: before I mean 5-6 years ago :) [10:05] how to Create Bitmap from a byte array in python [10:05] Serdar1: on uefi systems you need the efi system partition, that's where the bootloader is stored. [10:05] pavan: ask ##python [10:07] pavan That's who can help with that issue mate. [10:07] not getting reply from there [10:07] pavan It appears there is a large #python site too. [10:08] python is huge yes [10:08] pavan Try the single hash. [10:08] Anyone have a real #ubuntu question? [10:09] Anyone made partition in Usb drive?

[10:10] use fdisk [10:10] Yest? [10:11] where can I see these [OK] messages from boot, is this in syslog or somewhere else? [10:11] make sense [10:12] pavan There are over 1500 in #python, but you're in ##python. [10:13] Serdar1: no, they're not stored anywhere afaik. === Jochen_wvdT is now known as Schlawiner [10:14] hmm, the official channel seems to have moved from ##python to #python now... [10:17] ducasse Yeah, it seems so. [10:20] i'm on xubuntu 16.04. i have three monitors. sometimes two of my monitors don't power back on after the computer sleeps. i can force them back on via xrandr though https://gist.github.com/sabrehagen/66da13e33820788270015305d8a385f9 [10:20] is there somewhere i can view the 'monitor' logs to look for any error messages?

[10:45] tatertots: maybe you should listen to what his problem actually is first? [10:45] tatertots, no because it would take me ages to reset everything because I need to set up watercooling and all that jazz. [10:46] Fot anybody new to my problem: http://m.imgur.com/gallery/euwBu [10:46] For anybody new to my problem: http://m.imgur.com/gallery/euwBu [10:47] HexaChop: what kind of external disk? [10:47] ducasse: he has links for the ppl that are new to his problem, that haven't heard about it over the last week or no with symptoms that occur across linux distributions. [10:47] ducasse: enjoy the read [10:47] Adata NH13, Ducasse. [10:48] HexaChop: never heard of. is this a standard usb -> sata thing? [10:48] Ducasse, yes, most of them are. [10:51] Ducasse, it is a laptop harddrive sized HDD put into it. [10:52] HexaChop, witch laptop ? [10:52] HexaChop: the specs even say it should work with linux, so i doubt there's anything funny there. the reason i asked is because the image you posted looks like a controller failure to me. [10:53] ledeni, I didn't open it, it is simply of the size of a laptop HDD put inside. [10:53] HexaChop,laptop model [10:54] Ledeni, heh, you do not understand, do you. It came with it already in the external hdd box. [10:55] Ledeni, it connects the HDD inside via sata + it shows activity via LEDs. [10:55] HexaChop,i just asking company of laptop and model [10:57] Ledeni, it didn't come from a laptop, it came from factory as a one solid piece with HDD already inside the box. [10:58] hexchop so this is a custom build then? [10:58] HexaChop: i think he's trying to ask about what the disk is connected to - is it a laptop, if so - which? [10:58] HexaChop,it is laptop or desktop [11:01] hi all [11:01] if i'm a normal user ($) how can I use up arrow in terminal to retrieve a previous command? [11:02] I have a strange behaviour. I create xorg.conf with nvidia-xconfig, but everythime I restart lightdm it gets overwritten [11:03] Ledeni, take a look at the HDD online, all of the specs are there, mate. [11:03] PSUser2: as usual [11:03] PSUser2 hitting the up arrow is the normal way [11:03] HexaChop,it is laptop or desktop? [11:04] he's gone, ledeni [11:04] Who's gone? [11:05] I need to assign bash instead of shell, i didn't know, i just found out [11:05] HexaChop, you've been here almost 30 minutes and have yet to explain the most basic questions. read the details and try again [11:05] HexaChop: nobody is asking about the disk, forget the disk - what is it connected to? [11:05] !details | Hexachop [11:05] Hexachop: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. [11:05] PSUser2: 'chsh /bin/bash' [11:06] Ducasse, what should I do, mate? [11:06] PSUser2 what's the outcome of env|grep SHELL [11:06] * ducasse throws in the towel [11:07] i've fixed it with this: sudo chsh -s /bin/bash [11:07] HexaChop, you have an interesting problem. refusing to give sufficient details is demotivating to helpers. I'm out, too. [11:08] Cfhowlett, what kinds of details you need? [11:08] HexaChop: you've been asked about ten times what kind of machine this is. [11:08] Cfhowlett, I got disconnected, sorry. [11:09] Ducasse, Desktop UEFI. [11:09] * cfhowlett suspects games are being played ... [11:09] yeah... [11:09] Cfhowlett, what is my reason to play games? Seriously, bro... [11:11] So, it is hand-built, no branding, UEFI Desktop PC. [11:12] I can tell you the specs if you so wish, ducasse, cfhowlett, because the PC is hand-built by me, there is no branding...

Actually I wanted to know which one is more active and up to date with the latest features.

I didn't realise there were options. [11:26] I am buying a new laptop this week and intend to install Ubuntu on it. That's why I wanted to know that. [11:30] EriC^^, my SATAs are burried under GPUs. [11:32] HexaChop, you use dvd or usb stick with ubuntu install media? [11:33] HexaChop: if you boot 10 times it might boot once correctly, then you can add that line in that thread [11:36] EriC^^, switched ports. [11:37] That wasn't very easy. EriC^^. [11:37] <- noob here: if i want(need) to code in java, should i use openJDK or the oracle thingy? :3 [11:38] HexaChop: did it work? [11:39] neeca: for learning basics openJDK should do the trick.

[12:09] HexaChop: the thing is, there's uefi mode and bios mode, if you install an OS in a mode, and another in a different mode, you have to switch it in the bios every time you want to boot the different one [12:09] HexaChop: what OS is installed in the other hdd?

[12:11] you could check windows in which mode it's installed [12:11] EriC^^, nope, only on Power Supply. [12:12] HexaChop so there is dependency between this HDD and the others? Or not?

[12:21] rodolfo Here's a link where someone had the same problem in 14.4: http://askubuntu.com/questions/565851/how-to-get-rid-of-the-bottom-panel-in-gnome-3-classic-session [12:21] EriC^^, 32GB. [12:21] HexaChop: yikes [12:21] that's a lot for a swap [12:22] EriC^^, home partition logical or primary? [12:22] shouldn't matter cause the partition table type should be gpt [12:23] HexaChop: try opening a terminal and typing "sudo parted -l" and check the partition table type [12:23] rodolfo read through it though, before applying it, as one person stated that it didn't work, but that's at the end of the explanation, and then they said it worked when they deleted it. [12:23] there used to be a "PC suite" for symbion phones, isnt there a similer by google for android? Is there a software for PC /Linux that would pair with my android phone and I be able to send SMS via native android SMS app internally via copy paste in my computer? [12:23] Speiros, thanks for the link, I tried that as well. I followed guidelines, forum threads/posts from 2, 3, 4 and even 5 years ago. None worked out. It's almost as if the Gnome team did now want their panel to be removed at all this time. [12:24] I see rodolfo. What about the javascript extension it speaks of? [12:24] EriC^^ where to look after the command? [12:24] HexaChop Press enter [12:25] Speiros, I did that already, mate. [12:25] Oh, after you've typed your password into sudo [12:25] HexaChop: Partition table: 4th line [12:25] EriC^^, MsDos. [12:25] ah [12:25] HexaChop: you need to create a fresh gpt one [12:25] close the installer [12:25] Sircle there's wammu/gammu [12:26] then type sudo gdisk /dev/sda if that's the name of the hdd [12:26] EriC^^, how? [12:26] ^ [12:26] Oh yeah. [12:26] after gdisk opens, press "o" then "w" then quit [12:27] HexaChop: it'll erase everything on the disk [12:27] rodolpho So as root, have you been able to go into the file to see the panel? [12:28] EriC^^, what if deletes USB instead? === lubuntu is now known as Guest531 [12:28] HexaChop: nah it won't, make sure the name (/dev/sda) is the same one you got in sudo parted -l [12:29] Speiros, in a nutshell: the javascript extension contains what seems to be a shell extension, which cannot be toggled on or off because Firefox outputs the "Attempt to postMessage on disconnected port." error message. I tried Konotopov's solution following this link: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754316 It seems it worked, but this time I get another error code: "File closed". [12:29] Gnome bug 754316 in Browser extension "GNOME Shell Integration Plugin Crashed on Firefox with electrolysis enabled" [Normal,Resolved: fixed] [12:29] EriC^^, Create blank GPT, Create GPT, Create MBR? [12:30] HexaChop: create blank gpt [12:30] EriC^^, k. [12:30] rodolfo Ok. [12:30] EriC^^, now it asks for command. [12:31] Speiros, Is there an other way to make Gnome Shell "detect and accept" the javascript extension? [12:31] HexaChop: press "w" [12:31] EriC^^, done. [12:32] HexaChop: press "q" [12:32] rodolfo There seems to be another link on Ubuntu. Do you want to see the link? [12:32] EriC^^, the program can be found in following packages. [12:33] rodolfo Sorry, on askubuntu.com [12:33] Speiros, sure. Is it more recent? [12:33] No, it's just over 2.25 years old. [12:33] http://askubuntu.com/questions/75530/how-to-install-gnome-shell-extensions rodolfo === rymate12- is now known as rymate1234 [12:34] HexaChop: ok, try sudo partprobe then sudo parted -l again and see if the partition type changed [12:34] Speiros, I'll look into it. [12:34] rodolfo Ok, best wishes with it. [12:34] EriC^^, gpt now. [12:35] HexaChop: cool, start the installer again and same thing [12:35] Good morning everyone. [12:35] EriC^^, k, thanks, bro. [12:35] :) Hi kc9iid [12:35] HexaChop: no problem [12:36] Speiros, the link you mentioned provides information on how to install extensions from the official repository and from the Gnome-shell Extensions website. Any idea on how to manually install an extension [the one from Askubuntu you mentioned previously]? [12:37] rodolfo Oh, I see. Sorry. I thought the tool would help, but didn't realise it was just for already existing extensions. [12:37] Sorry, trying to get text to appear in a lighter color. [12:38] EriC^^, need a screenshot? [12:38] HexaChop: sure wouldn't hurt [12:38] *sure, wouldn't hurt [12:41] EriC^^, Here. http://m.imgur.com/gallery/BUDUo [12:41] rodolfo Here's one more that might help. It has a person making their extension, and then calling it to where they want it. Does this help? https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeShell/Extensions/StepByStepTutorial [12:42] rodolfo Just past half-way I think. [12:43] hello I am trying to run a script from start up with the following command xrandr -s 6, I wrote a script called http://pastebin.com/xiwPFdGs and saved it as scale_display.sh I try to run the script from terminal and it wont work, I added it to crontab -e, and it also doesnt work [12:43] can someone tell me what I am doing wrong [12:44] I just added to the crontab -e the scripts location, but even when I try to run it from terminal it doesnt work [12:44] the (script that is) [12:44] australopithecus you have to chmod +x the file [12:44] Speiros, On it. I tried this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/196884/how-to-install-gnome-shell-extensions-offline the person who provided the solution suggested to put the extension file inside the ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/ directory but there is no "gnome-shell" in my share folder. [12:44] EriC^^, here. http://m.imgur.com/gallery/BUDUo [12:45] HexaChop: looks good [12:45] EriC^^, ok, hit next? [12:45] HexaChop: yeah [12:45] awesome monkeydust, was wondering if you could give me an explanation for this, you are just modifying the permission correct? [12:45] if not that is fine too, I appreciate your help a lot [12:45] thank you [12:46] HexaChop: you can make the swap 32gb if you want it won't matter [12:46] MonkeyDust: wammu does not detects my phone [12:47] rodolfo Ok...where is your gnome-shell folder located? [12:47] rodolfo Or is there none? [12:48] Speiros, there is none. I tried starting gnome-shell using the Terminal, which output "Window manager warning: Display ":0" already has a window manager; try using the --replace option to replace the current window manager.Segmentation fault [12:48] " === richard is now known as Guest85924 [12:50] Speiros, the tools I was struggling with are Dconf, Gconf, and Gnome-tweak-tool. I guess I'll add gnome-shell to the mix and see how it goes. [12:52] rodolfo Yes, fair enough. Sorry rodolfo I can't find the solution. What do you mean tools you were struggling with? Using to troubleshoot? [12:53] Speiros, Yeah. And after trying to install gnome-shell, the terminal confirms it's ALREADY installed: "gnome-shell is already the newest version (3.18.5-0ubuntu0.2)." I don't see where the gnome-shell folder is located though. [12:53] rodolfo Technically, that's progress. Just need to find it. [12:54] EriC^^, I am getting same error with UEFI, but now it is EFI. [12:54] Can you do a search? I think if you're signed in as root, you can search, even if you can't edit, but at least you can find it and log the path. [12:54] HexaChop: no problem, click on continue [12:54] HexaChop: oh you mean a different one, what's the error this time? [12:54] Speiros, I just did using my file manager as root. Nothing. [12:55] EriC^^, lemme upload. [12:55] rodolfo Okay. [12:55] I don't know the commands to ask for the path for a specific folder. [12:55] HexaChop: k [12:56] Sircle https://wammu.eu/phones/ [12:56] ok so I want to run the following command on startup xrandr -s 6' [12:56] Speiros, running out of ideas here. Is there a way to talk to anyone from the Gnome team on IRC? [12:57] rodolfo That's a good idea...there's a #gnome channel [12:57] EriC^^ it says upload error. [12:58] ok so I want to run the following command on startup 'xrandr -s 6' to scale ubuntu Mate 16.1 to my display, I wrote a script with only this command in it scale_display.sh how do I add this to startup, I read I can use upstart anyone have a good guide on how to use it or if it is applicable for this case?, I also tried adding it to crontab -e, by adding '@reboot /path/to/script/scale_display.sh' and it didnt work [12:58] HexaChop: what's the error say roughly? [12:59] australopithecus, i'd use a lightdm hook [13:00] how do i do that ioria? [13:00] australopithecus, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM#Adding_System_Hooks [13:00] The partition table format in use on your disks normally requires you to create a separate partition for boot loader code. This partition should be marked for use as an efi boot partition and should be at least 35mb... EriC^^. [13:00] HexaChop: oh damn [13:00] my bad.. [13:00] HexaChop: i completely forgot about creating the efi partition [13:01] where is the path to the file I need to edit? [13:01] EriC^^, don't do that again, please. [13:01] HexaChop: lol :P [13:01] ok nvm lol [13:01] HexaChop: can you go back to the partition table screen? [13:01] sorry ioria, also thank you for your help [13:02] EriC^^, Yep. [13:02] australopithecus, ok [13:02] HexaChop: ok, make a 300mb partition type efi [13:03] Do I edit this file /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/*.conf file ioria right? It gives two options [13:03] hello [13:04] EriC^^, done it is of 1GB. [13:04] oh you just make a file got it [13:04] HexaChop: that's huge [13:04] Hello [13:04] anyone here ?

[13:08] amrmondy there's also the channel #docker [13:08] Speiros I guess I'll have to wait. I've just been told by a friend those devs from the Gnome channel are less likely to answer. *sigh* [13:09] rodolfo Sorry mate. I did find though an old terminal command, but I tried it and it didn't work on my computer. [13:09] Speiros, what is it? [13:09] EriC^^, are u a dev or something? [13:09] It's on this article. There's a couple of them. http://superuser.com/questions/159290/finding-a-directory-in-a-linux-terminal [13:09] australopithecus, "if you want to override the system configured default session you should make a file /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-myconfig.conf" [13:10] HexaChop: nope [13:10] EriC^^ Come on mate...we're all "something":D [13:10] australopithecus, inside [SeatDefaults] and display-setup-script=command [13:10] Speiros: in that sense yeah :D [13:10] EriC^^, you should become one [13:11] HexaChop: thanks, maybe one day a linux admin or something [13:12] EriC^^, np. You solved my issue like it was child's play. === rodolfo is now known as Rod_ [13:13] HexaChop: yeah i've done this a couple times before :P [13:13] ~infobot [13:13] you still have some stuff to do after the install though, so it always boots and the graphics are nice [13:14] hi [13:14] Speiros Are you using the latest Gnome version? [13:14] angone? [13:14] anyone? [13:15] lieber what [13:15] Rod_I doubt it, although I updated. [13:15] HexaChop: once it installs, reboot with nouveau.modeset=0 again, and then run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [13:16] EriC^^, how? [13:17] HexaChop: hold shift to get grub, then press "e" and add it in the line that says linux /boot/vmlinuz ... quiet splash instead of quiet splash then press ctrl+x [13:18] HexaChop: you also might need to choose a different graphics driver, if you press on the dash and type drivers you'll get a program that shows what drivers you can try out, there's always the one at the nvidia site in case nothing works out [13:20] Hey folks [13:21] EriC^^, what to do with quiet splash? [13:22] HexaChop: remove it and put nouveau.modeset=0 [13:22] Hi BluesKaj Is all well? [13:23] hi Speiros, all is well here, and you? [13:23] EriC^^, what's next?

[13:44] HexaChop: yup [13:44] HexaChop: paste the link it gives you here [13:45] Naive_Pixie: could you show "ls -al /etc/apt/souces.list.d/spotify.list" put it in paste bin [13:45] I'm pretty new to this and from what I've read and tried I'm not the only one who's done it. but it's frustrating because I don't know how on earth to fix it. I can't open Ubuntu software or the updater either [13:45] okay, one sec [13:45] I typed in sudo get-apt dis-upgrade -f [13:46] Naive_Pixie, http://askubuntu.com/questions/667801/type-sudo-is-not-known-in-source-list [13:46] "ls -al /etc/apt/souces.list.d/spotify.list" ... ? [13:47] Naive_Pixie it may be policy kit related [13:48] I need someone to talk me through how to fix it, I'm finding instructions online difficult to follow [13:48] EriC^^, look up. ^^^ [13:49] Naive_Pixie :) It can be frustrating. [13:49] @MonkeyDust what does policy kit related mean exactly? [13:50] Speiros it is haha! but I was slowly getting kinda good at it until I tried to install spotify. [13:50] HexaChop: it has typos, try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [13:50] Naive_Pixie it's a service you can enable or disable, searching now where and how [13:50] Hey all [13:50] Hi, I've got a network issue. I'm using the wifi, I'm not able to access any urls nor to ping them. But I can ping IPs. If I'm trying to reach an ip in the browser I only have the page's title loading. [13:50] EriC^^, it worked with the -f. [13:50] Naive_Pixie Yeah, there are many factors eh. [13:51] HexaChop: cool [13:51] HexaChop: try opening the dash and typing drivers [13:51] Koskoz How are you browsing? [13:51] Speiros: chrome or Firefox [13:51] Koskoz also sounds like your DNS lookups aren't working [13:52] Eric^^, I hope that these drivers will have no interference with my Windows drivers... [13:52] yeah hopefully I can fix it soon I've tried a few things but they all required sudo but it's not recognizing sudo as a 'thing' for lack of a better term [13:53] EriC^^, I can't find dash program. [13:53] Naive_Pixie: Did you follow the instructions from spotify's page? [13:53] Treehug88: I tried setting 8.8.8.8 in the network manager but that doesn't work either [13:53] Yup to the best of my knowledge I followed the instructions exactly Lollipop [13:53] HexaChop: it's the first icon in the launcher on the left [13:54] Naive_Pixie: what ubuntu version do you use? [13:54] HexaChop The swirly button top left [13:54] 14.04 [13:54] Koskoz look at this: http://www.tecmint.com/8-linux-nslookup-commands-to-troubleshoot-dns-domain-name-server/ [13:54] EriC^^, k, there is Additional Drivers and Software & Updates. [13:55] HexaChop: ok click on additional drivers [13:55] I'm trying to update all my ubuntu software and O.S. using Ubuntu Software, but whenever I click install, it seems to start installing, then the progress bar will get stuck at around 20%, after several minutes the option "install" is clickable again. Is there a fix? [13:55] MOUD check the logs [13:55] treehug88, where are the logs? [13:55] Naive_Pixie: hmn .. Have thought about upgrading your system? [13:55] EriC^^ what next? [13:56] MOUD start with /var/log/system.log (I think that's what it's called on ubuntu/debian [13:56] I wouldn't have a clue how to do that. and right now this is all I hav [13:56] have [13:56] EriC^^, my PC needed to restart to apply updates. [13:57] MOUD, what verion of ubuntu are you on? [13:57] Naive_Pixie You mentioned being walked through this, according to the instructions on the page. Are you happy to go through it one step at a time? [13:57] EriC^^, now all I see is a black screen... [13:57] HexaChop: aha, press ctrl+alt+del [13:57] HexaChop: actually [13:57] Yes Speiros that's exactly what would help :) [13:57] hold that thought, try ctrl+alt+f1 [13:58] Naive_Pixie I don't know what you're doing, but at least we can log what is happening along the way, and someone else can help. [13:58] In /etc/network/interfaces I only got two lines: iface lo and auto lo [13:58] Ok. [13:58] EriC^^, screen is black, mate. [13:58] Should I have something related to wifi? [13:58] Let me back up, and we'll go through form the beginning. [13:58] HexaChop: np, try ctrl+alt+del then hold shift to get grub [13:58] I can copy paste the issue I'm having, [13:58] it's in my terminal. [13:58] EriC^^, I am in grub now. [13:59] Naive_Pixie http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [13:59] EriC^^, nouveau.modset=0 again? [13:59] Naive_Pixie, Yes, please upload it to the link MonkeyDust just typed. [14:00] yes I've been on there Monkey, usually I can work it out but right now either the script on there isn't working or I'm using the wrong one or just doing it wrong somehow [14:00] oh you mean upload it to the site? [14:00] Yes:) [14:00] Naive_Pixie: yes and give us the url for your pastes [14:00] That way people don't get code congestion...if there's such an expression. [14:00] okay hang on [14:01] cfhowlett, 16.04 [14:01] If not code-congestion(C) [14:01] :D [14:01] Just kidding [14:01] MOUD, let's leave the graphical update for now. more info will be available from using the terminal so open one up [14:02] cfhowlett, it's open [14:02] HexaChop: yup [14:02] EriC^^ why it takes forever to load? [14:02] MOUD, sudo apt update | pastebinit && sudo apt full-upgrade | pastebinit [14:03] cfhowlett, need to install pastebin [14:03] MOUD, nope sudo apt update | nc termbin.com 9999 [14:03] HexaChop: does it mention any errors? [14:03] EriC^^, i get a lot of code then a huge 00 type code and repeats. [14:04] HexaChop: aha [14:04] ah [14:04] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23764254/ [14:04] Naive_Pixie, Excellent:) [14:05] I think I've successfully done what you meant! [14:05] Yes [14:05] cfhowlett, it's stuck in the first line: "http://termbin.com/ix94" [14:05] Naive_Pixie: It says that you dont have spotify.list in your repositories [14:05] Naive_Pixie: remove the "." before /etc [14:05] oh also, my Ubuntu Software Center is refusing to open, and the updater isn't working either. [14:06] please help me [14:06] my ub8untu [14:06] going to sick [14:06] HexaChop: we'll deal with it later, first thing getting the driver working and maybe it'll solve it too [14:06] !help | Eddard [14:06] Eddard: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [14:06] Naive_Pixie: I think they are going to work after we fix this [14:06] HexaChop: when it boots type "sudo ubuntu-drivers list | nc termbin.com 9999" [14:07] okay so I need to remove the ".", anything else? [14:07] Lollipop that sounds good to me! [14:07] MOUD, is this kali OS [14:07] Naive_Pixie, The problems may be all related [14:07] Naive_Pixie: Could you show us "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d/" [14:07] help me to fix my ubuntu 16.04 LTs , stuck in login menu? please answer fast because im going to sick [14:07] cfhowlett, no, Ubuntu 16.04 but I added the Kali repositories. [14:08] Eddard: does the guest account work? [14:08] Naive_Pixie: did you try the sed command again? (I would recommend removing the "-i" so it doesn't actually edit the file until you know it's going to work) [14:08] MOUD, well, if it's sticking on line one, I suspect the mirror might be down for the moment. try a different mirror [14:08] Eddard We will try to answer you as best as we can, but speed isn't recommended as errors happen when people rush. It'll be okay. [14:08] one sec guys one thing at a time. lollipop I'm pasting it now :) then I'll try you're idea yeats [14:08] MOUD: bad idea to mix repos from different distros [14:08] cfhowlett, shouldn't ubuntu just skip if it's not on? [14:09] MOUD, depends [14:09] yeats, I didn't know. But I wanted some programs that are available on kali, that's why I added the repo. [14:09] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23764373/ [14:10] cfhowlett, so what do you recommend? [14:10] MOUD: yeah, that's not the way to do it - look for Ubuntu PPAs for the individual apps or install from source [14:10] MOUD: or just try out kali separately [14:10] moud what HE said. [14:10] Hmmm, line 16? [14:10] MOUD, but to your specific issue, switch mirrors [14:10] yeats, cfhowlett, ok, will do that later. [14:11] cfhowlett, ok, I'll check. [14:11] ok i will waiting for the best answer and hope the answer fix my problems [14:11] Eddard: does the guest account work? [14:11] MOUD, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors [14:11] Im back [14:11] HexaChop: wb [14:11] nope [14:12] EriC^^, my tablet shut off. [14:12] Yeats: it came up with unknown command [14:12] Eddard: is it a fresh install or it worked before? [14:12] HexaChop: np [14:12] l0llip0p, What are your thoughts on line 16? [14:12] fresh install [14:12] Lollipop: did you get my paste?' [14:12] HexaChop: try "sudo ubuntu-drivers devices | nc termbin.com 9999" [14:12] EriC^^, maybe yo [14:13] Naive_Pixie, Your paste was clear:) [14:13] Eddard: does ctrl+alt+f1 work? [14:13] EriC^^, I can't get past grub again. [14:13] HexaChop: why not? [14:13] it does [14:13] so basically the script that is on Ubuntu help doesn't work and I have no idea why [14:13] Eddard: type "cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999" and paste the link it gives you here [14:14] EriC^^, I get a lot of text then 00 55 type code and repeats as an infinite cycle. [14:14] ill try [14:14] HexaChop: can you take a screenshot of it? [14:14] EriC^^, ok. [14:14] Naive_Pixie, I can see a typo on line 16, but I'm not sure whether it's an intentional one, or actually a typo. [14:14] HexaChop: ok, cool [14:15] Naive_Pixie: can you pastebin the command you ran and the full output? [14:15] yup gimmie a sec yeats [14:16] and speiros if you tell me what code to try step by step I'll do it [14:16] cfhowlett, do I need to add the deb-src too? [14:16] MOUD, not unless you are working with source code [14:16] cfhowlett, no then. [14:16] Naive_Pixie, I'm not experienced enough to guide you through code, but as a team others on here can help with their experience. [14:17] hey [14:17] I have a question [14:17] it says http://termbin.com/uzy9 [14:17] I can't use n mode on my wife connection [14:17] what should i do ?

[14:18] can anyone help me [14:18] does anyone use ubuntu on virtual machine and it runs fast? [14:18] On mine it's very slow [14:18] Eddard: it looks clean without errors [14:18] hold up, I'll try it without the '.' before the 'bak'? [14:18] Eddard: try "DISPLAY=:1 startx unity" [14:18] Eddard: see what it says [14:19] Naive_Pixie: sorry, put the "-i" back so that it reads "-i.bak" again - I just consulted the sed docs (cool, I didn't know you could do that) [14:19] HexaChop: try postimage.org [14:20] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23764442/ [14:20] or tinypic.com [14:20] it says X.Org X Server 1.18.3 [14:20] Release Date: 2016-04-04 [14:20] X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 [14:20] Build Operating System: Linux 3.13.0-95-generic x86_64 Ubuntu [14:20] Current Operating System: Linux Robot 4.4.0-57-generic #78~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Sat Dec 10 00:14:47 UTC 2016 x86_64 [14:20] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-57-generic root=UUID=952ff627-de6d-4d85-b105-fe1a011cf27e ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 [14:20] help me [14:20] oh okay cool I'll re try it with that again. do I still leave out the '.' before /etc? [14:20] beeman: many factors to consider (virtualization platform, host specs, how much you're allocating, etc.) [14:20] Eddard: does it end with any errors? [14:21] yeats: for example press windows key it's become lag(slow) for a few seconds [14:21] Eddard: if you could somehow paste it in paste.ubuntu.com that would be great (btw how did you manage to paste that here from ctrl+alt+f1?) [14:22] Naive_Pixie: yes, if you're trying to change the actual file ("." in this instance means "the path starts in the current directory") [14:22] sorry im noob [14:22] Same message as just before, [14:22] beeman: what are the specs of the pc and which ubuntu version?

[14:27] happy2help! moud [14:28] yeah thats what it spat out :D [14:28] beeman, virtualbox is the goto solution [14:28] cfhowlett: no. bye [14:28] beeman: I would recommend using VirtualBox instead (though I'm kind of choking recommending an oracle product) [14:28] yeats: no. bye [14:28] yeah Yeats I've been working on it, only been using it for a few months and it's the first time I've actually needed any real help so I think I'm getting there :D [14:28] HexaChop: ok, try a few times to boot it, it might boot up once every 10 tries or so [14:28] ok [14:29] HexaChop: once it boots, we'll follow the advice in that thread about fixing it [14:29] Yeats, what oracle is bad? [14:29] EriC^^: respond? [14:29] Another thing, how can I install kubuntu interface so I can switch between ubuntu and kubuntu interfaces? [14:29] MOUD: what is kubuntu interface?

[14:30] hmmm [14:30] beeman: try virtualbox maybe? [14:30] It has work on me sometimes [14:30] beeman: also give it more ram, like 2gb [14:31] virtualbox uses a key and mine is broken [14:31] beeman, yes, that seems to be the one, thanks.

[15:24] https://ptpb.pw/FX-q i did upgrade , but still i get that it just cant can't do it? [15:24] ioria: no from a ppa, we were thinking to go the repo 367 route instead, any thoughts? [15:25] EriC^^, why not the last 375 ? from ppa ... [15:25] EriC^^, http://termbin.com/39vz [15:25] I think this will breal a dep in the long run don't want to leave the like that [15:25] Why does it happpen here , now ?j [15:25] ioria: no idea about nvidia drivers, if it's better then by all means :D [15:26] A Ka Shqipetar Ketu [15:26] EriC^^, 375 it's just the last added [15:26] !info nvidia-375 [15:26] Package nvidia-375 does not exist in yakkety [15:26] ioria: in the graphics-ppa ?

[15:27] I have issues with nvidia-375 [15:28] the ppa seems a little broken, http://termbin.com/xi1a [15:28] EriC^^, 367 i think [15:28] O Shqipeeeee [15:28] Ku Jeni [15:28] Pse Nuk Shkruni [15:28] for some reason lightdm is replacing my xorg.conf with a different version [15:29] at every (re)start [15:29] someone know, how I can prohibit that_ [15:29] Sperios, This is super frustrating again... [15:30] Speiros, This is super frustrating again... * [15:30] HexaChop: nvidia 367 from the repo, or nvidia 375 from the ppa? [15:31] serdar: Try to purge/remove lightdm amd re-install. [15:31] EriC^^, neither repo nor ppa means anything to me, I do not understand a thing. [15:31] HexaChop Patience mate. Think of the wise words of Chicago ♪We've come too far to leave it all behind♪ [15:31] HexaChop, so, it's a fresh install (i guess) did you have problems updating it ? [15:31] :D [15:31] HexaChop: repo is the one from the official ubuntu repositories, the ppa is an external repository run by someone else [15:31] ioria, what do u mean? [15:31] Sperios, true. [15:32] HexaChop, 16.10, right ? [15:32] Speiros, true. * [15:32] ioria, right. [15:32] HexaChop, sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [15:33] ioria, http://termbin.com/ktfu [15:33] How is everyone doinng this morning? Enjoy your Sunday? [15:33] HexaChop It looks like you have the option of choosing the one on Ubuntu, or the NVIDIA one, is that correct EriC^^ ? [15:33] k00l3th4n, it is nearly evening here, mate. [15:33] Hi k00l3th4n :) [15:33] HexaChop, if it's a fresh install... what happened ? [15:33] 2:30AM here. [15:34] HexaChop: Well... How is your evening going? [15:34] Ioria, already updated maybe? [15:34] Speiros: Hello mate. [15:34] :) [15:34] k00l3th4n, not very well, linux problems, mate. [15:34] HexaChop, this was caused by the nvidia drivers ? [15:34] Speiros: oh, no that is an option though too [15:35] ioria, Don't... really... know... [15:35] HexaChop: nvidia 367 from the repo, or nvidia 375 from the ppa, or the nvidia one from their website [15:35] HexaChop: What issues are you having. Maybe I can help. [15:35] EriC^^ Ah, okay. [15:35] k00l3th4n can't install Nvidia drivers. [15:35] HexaChop, so, try to purge nvidia and reboot sudo apt-get purge nvidia+ [15:35] HexaChop, so, try to purge nvidia and reboot sudo apt-get purge nvidia* [15:35] ioria: he hasn't installed nvidia yet [15:36] EriC^^ why repo oficial work good in ubuntu [15:36] HexaChop, dpkg -l | grep nvidia | pastebinit [15:36] Dreaman: he wants latest drivers [15:36] HexaChop: Oh man! yeah, that can be a pain in the ass. I think it took me a couple of days last time I had that problem. [15:36] is not good idea [15:36] but [15:37] HexaChop: ioria maybe it's half installed [15:37] HexaChop: You are gonna have to download the driver and install from command line without xorg. [15:37] ioria, I don't have pastebinit. [15:37] HexaChop, dpkg -l | grep nvidia | nc termbin.com 9999 === jorge_ is now known as Guest39565 [15:37] hey [15:38] ioria says use netcat. [15:38] k00l3th4n: I did that right now, but the result is the same [15:38] Hi all. Is there a way to force Unity Dash open application list first instead of last files or etc. ? [15:38] tchnq: there's the shortcut super+a incase it helps [15:38] HexaChop: Can you pastebin your errors. That way I can maybe help. [15:38] and then I get the black screen [15:39] EriC^^, awesome! What about mouse click? [15:39] k00l3th4n, I can't use neither termbin nor pastebin. [15:39] HexaChop Why? [15:39] tchnq: no idea, there's right click > applications just found that :) [15:40] k00l3th4n, speiros, it asks me to use netcat. [15:40] HexaChop Ok. [15:40] EriC^^, :D discoveries :)) [15:40] k00l3th4n, speiros, it asks me to use netcat (termbin). [15:40] tchnq: haha :D [15:40] And I wanted to ask as well is there a nice resource in a web to build my own ubuntu [15:41] HexaChop: That's weird for sure. Never had that issue before. [15:41] HexaChop: try dpkg -l | grep nvidia | curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us [15:41] Because I am using default ubuntu build from site. [15:41] Everyone says I am newb >_< [15:41] !minimal | tchnq [15:41] tchnq: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [15:41] EriC^^, finally, http://sprunge.us/NNBL [15:41] What card do you need a driver for?

[15:42] k00l3th4n, 2x ASUS Strix 1070 [15:42] HexaChop: does "dpkg -l | grep nvidia" give you anything in the terminal? [15:42] HexaChop, dpkg -l | grep nvidia no output, right ? [15:42] hello. is there a way to se where apache2, php7 and mysql slows down? since upgrade to 16.04 wordpress is extreamly slow [15:43] ioria, EriC^^, none. [15:43] HexaChop: dpkg -l | grep -v ^ii | curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us [15:43] HexaChop, so it broke by itself ? [15:43] ubottu, Thx! [15:43] ioria, EriC^^, I had no NVIDIA drivers after installing ubuntu, I get no output, that why http://sprunge.us/NNBL is empty. [15:43] that's* [15:43] HexaChop, ok... so how apt broke ? [15:44] ioria, idk if it broke at all. [15:44] HexaChop, yes, you got unmet deps [15:44] HexaChop, sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [15:44] he did attempt to install nvidia-367 [15:45] try the dpkg -l | grep -v ^ii command [15:45] it'll show anyyh [15:45] What's difference between Linux live usb creator and grub and yumi? [15:45] *anything that isn't installed correctly [15:45] What about Intel HD graphics driver on ubuntu 16.04 LTE? I've didn't installed any driver, so I believe ubuntu is using default driver. I have worse fps then in windows in Dota2 [15:45] HexaChop, try sudo apt-get purge nvidia* and see what it says [15:46] ioria, http://termbin.com/pjx3 (for the sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade) [15:46] HexaChop, right, purge [15:47] ioria: wildcards with apt.. yesterday some guy broke his install purging gpg* [15:47] <_war10ck_> Hello all, just upgraded to 16.04 and found that the free space status bar is dropped in Nautilus(updated from 12.04) [15:47] ioria, http://termbin.com/xs3f (for the try sudo apt-get purge nvidia*) [15:47] HexaChop: Are you using 64-bit? [15:47] k00l3th4n yep. [15:47] (just a heads up on this wildcard issue) [15:47] <_war10ck_> Is it something that I am missing or that feature is really dropped in nautilus [15:47] HexaChop, it's a mess [15:47] EriC^^, really ? [15:48] ioria: yes [15:48] ioria, purge? [15:48] EriC^^, that's a total different pkg [15:48] it removed apt even, he had to use dpkg -i to get it back [15:48] ioria: ok :P [15:48] Noone here playing Dota2 on Intel HD? [15:48] ioria: apt is kind of coco for cocopuffs with wildcards [15:48] k00l3th4n: I purged and reinstalled lightdm, but it still overwrites my xorg.conf [15:48] HexaChop, it says 367, 370, 375 .... [15:49] EriC^^, yeah [15:49] ioria: on different systems getting different results too [15:49] EriC^^: i get can't drop privileges for files... when i install some pkcages necessary for flash? [15:49] The following packages requested additional data downloads after package installation, but the data could not be downloaded or could not be processed. [15:49] HexaChop, i'd start to purge language-pack-es [15:49] ttf-mscorefonts-installer [15:50] serdar: Okay, try to purge/remove xorg then reinsall. [15:50] HexaChop, sudo apt-get purge language-pack-es [15:50] short question, as I understood, I don't need nomodeset when I install nvidia drivers, is that still valid? [15:50] test [15:51] hahhaa salute [15:51] ioria, sudo apt-get purge language-pack-es [15:51] yes [15:51] Anyone know how can I confirm that Transmission is connected through VPN? [15:51] ioria, http://termbin.com/j7xs , sorry. [15:52] throwaway: which vpn service? [15:52] HexaChop, sudo apt-get purge language-pack-gnome-es [15:52] dependson that throwaway , [15:52] Expressvpn [15:52] ioria, http://termbin.com/j7xs [15:52] darn [15:52] ioria, exact same outcome [15:52] Expressvpn, lodearit [15:53] What's meaning of "Linux which runs from ram"? [15:53] ioria, http://termbin.com/4706 [15:53] HexaChop open the setting and try sp and install [15:53] it is connected through vpn as all traffic passes, unless the connection is down then it's all exposed, accidental cuts happen [15:53] esp [15:53] HexaChop: try sudo apt-get install language-pack-es-base [15:53] Dreaman, do what? [15:53] see why it won't install it [15:53] throwaway: Hold on a minute and i'll send you a link to download a file to check you vpn through transmission. [15:53] HexaChop, if you run apt-get -f install ? [15:53] k00l3th4n, no thanks [15:54] lodearit, ok [15:54] EriC^^, it gives me a lot of command not found. [15:54] ioria, yes. [15:54] k00l3th4n: I purged lightdm now and reinstalled it but I got the same issue [15:54] HexaChop, what happens ? [15:54] HexaChop: sudo apt-get install language-pack-es-base [15:54] ioria, installed a lot of stuff, why? [15:54] HexaChop, something wrong [15:55] do I need nomodeset? as I understood, this is not needed, when I install nvidia driver [15:55] HexaChop, when it finishes, rerun update and full-upgrade [15:55] EriC^^, It worked. [15:55] ioria, I did the -f install thing a while back now. [15:55] throwaway: Google ipMagnet and download use the magnet to check if you client is connected through VPN. [15:55] HexaChop: try sudo apt-get install language-pack-es [15:55] HexaChop, sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [15:56] thanks, k00l3th4n [15:56] ioria, http://termbin.com/jjgb [15:56] throwaway: It's pretty simple. That's the method I use. [15:56] HexaChop, still broken [15:57] throwaway: Let me know if it works. [15:57] EriC^^, http://termbin.com/gp5d [15:57] throwaway: And you're welcome bro. [15:57] HexaChop: ok, let's take a breather [15:57] and try to figure stuff out [15:57] deal? [15:57] EriC^^, I can keep going actually. [15:58] Is it fine if I ask a Ubuntu installation problem I'm having? [15:58] lightdm kills me. can someone tell me another dm, except sddm? [15:58] Do it Volis:) [15:58] Someone will look at it. [15:58] HexaChop, again if you run apt-get -f install what happens ? [15:58] i mean like let's try to see what's going on instead of pulling random wires [15:58] HexaChop: ^ [15:58] HexaChop, try sudo apt-cache clean all [15:58] http://prikachi.com/images.php?images/803/9013803E.png HexaChop lame Ñ= [15:58] serdar: pastepin you error and send the link so I can see the errors. [15:59] ioria, http://termbin.com/ummp [15:59] k00l3th4n: lightdm replaces my xorg.conf, I don't know what I should paste there [15:59] Alright, so my friend has an Asus X205TA and I followed the exact instructions here ( https://github.com/lopaka/instructions/blob/master/ubuntu-16.04-install-asus-x205ta.md under BIOS Setup) to try boot with USB but I'm not able to [15:59] HexaChop, and ? [15:59] Volis: what happens when you try to boot? [15:59] ioria, I get this: http://termbin.com/ummp [15:59] Volis: acpi=off [16:00] HexaChop, and it stops ? [16:00] ioria, yep. [16:00] HexaChop, dpkg -l | grep -v "ii " | grep -v "rc " [16:00] what happened to kdm or gdm? [16:00] What happens is, I create the bootable USB. Plug it into X205TA, power on, press Esc key to select the boot device, select USB drive and then it shows me the same dialog again after black screen for 2 seconds. [16:01] ioria, http://termbin.com/lokl [16:01] I choose USB stick again and then it proceeds to boot with Windows again [16:01] Volis: press e and add acpi=off, that might help maybe pci=nomsi also helps you [16:01] HexaChop, it'all broken . [16:01] serdar: So what is the issue. You can't use xorg or what? Or are you not get a windows manager? [16:01] had a similar issue with my msi notebook here [16:01] serdar, Press e at the menu where it shows me bootable media? [16:01] HexaChop, bad installed i guess ... don't know how [16:02] HexaChop, try sudo apt-cache clean all [16:02] ioria, what are you suggesting? I CHECKED the MD5, it was perfect. [16:02] k00l3th4n: I change xorg.conf with my settings or with nvidia-xconfig and when I (re)start lightdm it gets replaced [16:02] HexaChop, lvm, encryption ... how did you installed ? [16:02] Volis: yes and go down where you see splash and add there these two entries and press F10 [16:02] ledeni, E: Invalid operation clean. [16:03] ioria, what? [16:03] HexaChop, installed plain and simple ? without lvm or encryption options selected ? [16:03] serdar: Interesting. I'm not sure I can help bro. All I can advise is reinstall xorg and your drivers. [16:03] ioria both selected [16:04] serdar, maybe something in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d overriding? [16:04] HexaChop, if you ask, i'd reinstall sorry [16:04] Amm0n: and here is the funny fact, there is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d [16:04] ioria, nope, I am SO DONE. [16:04] lol [16:05] HexaChop: yeah [16:05] MD5 went perfectly..., ioria. [16:05] serdar, Alright I think this is what you're saying ( http://askubuntu.com/a/160056 ) but that computer has Windows 8. No Grub. [16:05] HexaChop, it's not all in the checksum [16:05] I might getting old, but I have the feeling, that 5 years ago gentoo was easier :/ [16:06] Volis: your usb stick is using grub I guess [16:06] hi [16:06] The following packages have been kept back: [16:06] gnome-software gnome-software-common snapd ubuntu-core-launcher ubuntu-software [16:06] serdar, is this a multiuser system? you could use Autostart X at login and ditch the DM bloat [16:06] brb [16:06] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded. [16:06] how to upgrade that? [16:06] sperios, I give up, mate. [16:06] those packages cancreate a chain reaction, so i need to upgrade them? [16:06] serdar, yes but it doesn't even start to boot. The Esc option to select the boot media I'm talking about is BIOS [16:06] HexaChop, try sudo apt-get clean all [16:07] lodearit: Hello, what is your issue? [16:07] speiros, I give up, mate. * [16:07] i wantt to fix that 5 not upgraded [16:07] HexaChop I don't know mate. [16:07] lodearit: sudo apt-get install dist-upgrade [16:07] Volis: what exactly happens, I was not giving to much attention [16:07] why do i get that? error, and how to fix it? i am already on 16.04 [16:07] HexaChop You've got the ubuntu part working, but it's drivers now isn't it? [16:08] lodearit: try 'sudo apt full-upgrade' [16:08] Speiros: it's always drivers :D [16:08] serdar, to your KMS question. Do you need a different resolution in kernelspace? If so it's supported since nvidia 364.12+ [16:08] serdar, I plug the USB, power on the device, press Esc key to see the boot options (Windows Boot Manager or USB: Sandisk), select USB and press Enter and it comes back to the same dialog. [16:08] lodearit: I'd backup your system before ever dist-upgradeing. [16:08] Amm0n: I've installed 375 now [16:09] serdar, The second time when I select and enter USB. Windows boot anyway. [16:09] Speiros, this is so frustrating... I am seriously about to give up now... [16:09] serdar I guess. I'm staying with 14.4 for now...at least for a little while. [16:09] k00l3th4n: why on earth do you say that? dist-upgrade is the recommended way to update on ubuntu. [16:09] serdar, The USB works on a different computer. My BIOS is set exactly as defined here https://github.com/lopaka/instructions/blob/master/ubuntu-16.04-install-asus-x205ta.md [16:09] Volis: is secure boot enabled? [16:09] serdar, Disabled [16:10] ioria, I know what is wrong [16:10] ducasse: You [16:10] ioria, I have a red minus sign at the top. IT says this: [16:10] k00l3th4n: so if i get not upgrade packages, even though i did apt-get upgrade, and then number of packages keep on increasin then is it bad/ [16:10] Volis: It's hard to check websites, if you are not on X :) [16:11] an eror occurred, please run package manager (and a lot more text), ioria sperios. [16:11] speiros * ^ [16:11] serdar, oh wait, I'll tell you in that case, "Advanced tab, USB Configuration -> USB Controller Select set to EHCI" and "Security tab, Secure Boot menu -> Secure Boot Control set to Disabled" [16:11] HexaChop What part is the error that occurred? [16:11] HexaChop the initial install? [16:11] ducasse: That's correct. It's just safe to make backup before a dist-upgrade. It could break you system. At least in my experience. [16:11] I am trying to move my vps to a vm, I have a tar.gz with all the files of the vps in it (sys, dev, etc, more) and I was thinking I'd create a new ubuntu vm, and extract all the files over it, but how do you figure out what version of ubuntu you were on? [16:11] Volis: so you are not seing the Try Ubuntu boot menu? [16:11] Speiros, I have at the top taskbar a red minus sign [16:11] serdar, nope [16:12] .... I am trying to move my vps to a vm, I have a tar.gz with all the [16:12] HexaChop,close package manager if you have open [16:12] how did you create your usb? [16:12] ledeni, it wasn't open. [16:12] k00l3th4n: that is *very* unlikely, unless you use a ton of random ppas. [16:12] serdar, I used rufus on Windows 10 machine [16:12] HexaChop, try sudo apt-get clean all [16:12] Volis: hmm that's fine [16:12] So How do you figure out what version of ubuntu you are running from a backup? [16:13] ledeni, done, got no error, no nothing really. [16:13] Volis: is this a uefi bios? [16:13] guideX: /etc/issue [16:13] ledeni, got no output. [16:13] serdar, I'm pretty sure it is [16:13] guideX: why does it matter? [16:13] HexaChop When you say at the top taskbar, the top of what, and which taskbar? [16:13] lodearit: No that's not bad, just mean there are upgrades for you packages. You should be fine to upgrade. Just be careful when upgrading anything with xorg. [16:13] EriC^^ I am trying to move my vps to a vm [16:13] I'm trying to picture what would have a red minus sign HexaChop [16:13] Volis: can you select on Bios which device you boot in? [16:14] HexaChop, now try sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [16:14] but I'm not sure what version of ubuntu I'm on to create the new vm [16:14] serdar, I did. That has the same effect [16:14] I was planning to Extract over the new ubuntu files [16:14] Speiros, near the internet arrows. [16:14] ducasse: Again, true. It's just better to be prepared incase anything breaks. That way you can revert to your previous system if something goes wrong. [16:14] guideX: that's not a good idea [16:14] Volis: what did you download? [16:14] serdar, I disabled "Windows Boot Manager" option from the BIOS boot options and the computer kept on booting straight to BIOS [16:15] EriC^^: ah ok, do yuou have any recommendations how I can do it? I wish to move from my vps to a vm, but I'm having alot of trouble [16:15] Volis: tried different slots? [16:15] ledeni, solved it myself, had to put -f before full-upgrade [16:15] guideX: boot a live iso in the vm, and create a partition table on the vm disk and partitions, mount them, then copy over the backup install [16:15] HexaChop So it's working now? [16:15] serdar, I have tried both Ubuntu 16.10 x64 and x86 desktop versions [16:15] guideX: then chroot to the install and reinstall grub [16:15] serdar, yes, tried different slots and different USB sticks too [16:16] Speiros, ype, it fetched files now. [16:16] Speiros, yep* [16:16] EriC^^: hrm ok, I tried that before, but I don't actually know how to do much aside from a normal install of ubuntu, but i'll research how to do all those things [16:16] HexaChop See...don't give up mate:) The folks in here have a huge skill and knowledge base between them. [16:16] serdar, X205TA doesn't have a CD reader else I would have tried Plop Boot Manager as well [16:16] ACL question: Can anyone tell me why the mask of subfolders is r-- considering the ACLs of the parent? https://gist.github.com/2called-chaos/3d6eff4b699644a34fca4dc15c456a63 [16:16] I ran into some failure before [16:16] HexaChop Bits and pieces, along with our own understanding, and guess what??? [16:17] do you have a different usb stick Volis ? [16:17] HexaChop Ubuntu. Literally:) [16:17] HexaChop, ok now update your system first [16:17] creating the partition table without installation, mounting, chroot, reinstall grub etc [16:17] ledeni, command, please? [16:17] these are things I usually let the installer do [16:17] ledeni, the command worked for installing [16:17] serdar, yes I do, I have so far tried three all of which work just fine on other computers [16:17] HexaChop, already give you [16:18] guideX: it's not difficult [16:18] EriC^^: yeah but I am not too good with linux [16:18] guideX: create a partition table using fdisk (press o then w to write), the use cfdisk (it's very intuitive) to create the partitions [16:18] Volis: have you searched for X205TA boot from usb? [16:18] guideX: you'll manage easily and learn a ton i'm sure [16:18] hrm ok i'll try again [16:18] if you have any issues feel free to ask here [16:19] ledeni, worked. [16:19] ok cool [16:19] HexaChop,great [16:19] had to hit yes, added -f somewhere to make it work, ledeni. [16:19] Volis: it looks like, that your bios don't allow boot from usb, maybe ou need to update your bios [16:20] serdar, yes I have and just did that again. People seem to have that problem but no answers so far. The most thorogh installation procedure is defined in the Github md file I linked [16:20] Volis: did you follow that guide, replacing the efi with the 32bit version and whatnot? [16:20] HexaChop,ok [16:21] ducasse: I've learned to always backup my system before upgrading a bunch of packages. It doesn't hurt to have a backup anyways. It's good practice. [16:21] EriC^^, What do you mean? [16:21] ledeni, what's next? [16:21] k00l3th4n: that is what snapshots are for ;) [16:21] HexaChop, sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-367 [16:21] I tried Ubuntu x86 on the USB if that's what you mean [16:21] k00l3th4n Yep. I learned to keep files external and introduce them to the system. [16:22] Volis: uefi usually is 64bit, and the ubuntu installer uses that, for 32bit you need to do some stuff and the link you provided outlines stuff [16:22] EriC^^: he has a bios issue, the system is not loading from usb. [16:22] HexaChop,opss [16:22] EriC^^, I tried x64 in that case too, that should have worked [16:22] serdar: it's using uefi no? [16:22] k00l3th4n, Also, I only just had the reminder by a close friend, to keep an external drive handy in my go-bag. I never thought about that before. [16:22] HexaChop, just sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-367 [16:22] Volis: it's not 64bit [16:22] looks like I'm on Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS \n \l I could have sword it was 16, weird [16:22] sworn [16:22] ducasse: True! I usually just clone my / [16:23] i'll start with an ubuntu 14.04 then [16:23] Volis: isn't this the guide you posted? https://github.com/lopaka/instructions/blob/master/ubuntu-16.04-install-asus-x205ta.md [16:23] "Separate system already running Ubuntu 16.04 - this is where you will build the 32bit boot loader and create the USB install flash drive" [16:23] ledeni, E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). [16:23] Speiros: I'd say your friend is right. I have an extra drive just for backups. [16:23] you need to get a 32bit uefi and replace the 64bit one in the ubuntu installer so you can boot it Volis [16:24] HexaChop, sudo apt-get clean all [16:24] EriC^^, How do I do that? [16:24] k00l3th4n, Yep:) [16:24] ledeni, done, gave no output again [16:25] do you guys know, when selecting an ubuntu version, should it be the ubuntu-14.04.4-server-amd64.iso or ubuntu-14.04.4-server-i386.iso [16:25] So...the ubuntu wiki...I have an idea. [16:25] Volis: do you have a system already running ubuntu 16.04? [16:25] EriC^^, I have a system running Windows 10 instead :| [16:25] guideX: do you want a 32bit or 64bit? [16:25] ducasse: You use a VM? I dont' use VMs, so snapshots arent relevent to me. [16:25] Who has some responsibility with the wiki? [16:26] HexaChop, sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 [16:26] ledeni, what that did? [16:26] HexaChop,sudo apt-get update [16:26] guideX, Check the computer you intend it install it on. See if it is 32 bit or 64 bit [16:26] ledeni, got the update, too. [16:26] guideX, If your CPU does not support x86_64, try i386, What is your CPU? [16:27] EriC^^, Is this the problem that you're talking about? http://askubuntu.com/questions/392719/32-bit-uefi-boot-support [16:27] ledeni, Reading package lists... Done [16:27] HexaChop,sudo apt-get install nvidia-367 [16:27] k00l3th4n: no, i use btrfs and zfs [16:27] Volis: that might work [16:28] ledeni, not working. Again some -f thing [16:28] ducasse: Cool. How do you lile ZFS? [16:28] EriC^^, cool, I'll try that [16:28] HexaChop,again sudo apt-get clean all [16:28] Volis: do you have a usb? [16:28] Ah, it's okay. Found all the info on the actual Ubuntu wiki...as regards the Ubuntu wiki:) [16:28] EriC^^, yes I do [16:28] ledeni, done. [16:29] HexaChop,ok [16:29] Volis: you could use an ubuntu live session to run the commands in the first guide you posted, in case it does some fancy stuff so it loads on the tablet [16:29] Volis: the commands are in that gray box [16:29] starting with apt-get install p7zip-full ... [16:29] ducasse: I've been thinking about switching to ZFS. I here good things. [16:29] EriC^^, what are you talking about with Volis? [16:30] EriC^^, oh okay I'll boot the live session on this computer and run the commands [16:30] Volis: do you have another usb? [16:30] EriC^^, Is it fine if I do it on a virtual machine I have that is running Ubuntu? [16:30] ledeni, what to do next? [16:30] EriC^^, only one right now [16:30] cause you'll need it (that's the one you're going to make so it works on the tablet) [16:30] ah right [16:31] Volis: ok, boot the live usb, and report back here once it's booted [16:31] That's okay, I'll get one as soon as possible and then do it [16:31] EriC^^, you can make linux ubuntu run on TABLET? [16:31] maybe we can add files to it, it just needs the bootia32.efi file in efi/boot/ [16:31] HexaChop, It's Asus X205TA so yeah tablet. [16:31] xXEoflaOEXx: it's an i5 in an asus eee slate [16:31] hi, im going to buy a samsung nvme ssd 512GB pro for my notebook and install ubuntu 16.10 64 bits in it. I want that unit for the speed. Will these drivers make it go as fast as possible? http://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/minisite/ssd/download/tools.html [16:31] HexaChop: yes [16:32] Got to go guys/gals. Be back later. [16:32] HexaChop,sudo apt-get install nvidia-graphics-drivers-367 [16:32] the problem though is, I have no idea what was installed on the vps [16:32] ledeni, E: Unable to locate package nvidia-graphics-drivers-367 [16:32] HexaChop, Worth learning eh:) [16:32] is there a way to know if it's one or the other via the tar.gz? [16:33] Speiros, learning what? [16:33] stanstill: those drivers are for windows [16:34] I am having issues booting into Ubuntu 16.04.1. I can successfully boot via recovery mode but not the normal mode. I've tried using boot repair to no avail. http://paste2.org/GLBxYMCB The issue I'm having is that I cannot type in my (LUKS, I think) decryption password on the normal boot UI === al_ is now known as Guest94682 [16:35] ducasse: ok, so will that samsung nvme still work with 3,500 MB/sec write and 2,100 MB/sec write speeds? or am I screwed for using linux? [16:35] Apple_: what happens in normal mode [16:35] guideX, So it must support x86_64, Try x86_64 on and see. [16:36] stanstill: afaik samsung nvme drives work as they should with linux [16:36] ok ducasse what tool do I need to check write and read speeds, once I install ubuntu in the unit? [16:37] The boot loader pulls up a prompt asking for the decryption password. I can't type in that box. The keyboard still works though - I can Alt-Sysreq-reisub [16:37] stanstill: try hdparm or bonnie++, the latter is much more comprehensive [16:37] both from the terminal I assume... [16:37] is apache tomcat a webserver for java? [16:38] stanstill: yep. [16:39] HexaChop,can you open software & updates application [16:39] stanstill: what speeds you actually get depends on your workload. [16:39] I'll get a better boot link. http://paste2.org/e0X91NjD [16:39] ldeni, sure. [16:39] ducasse: Im aiming for samsung, because all HDDs I own are samsung and all references I have read about the brand are good. Id like to hear your opinion [16:39] ledeni, sure. [16:40] stanstill: i have a bunch of samsung sata ssds, they are excellent. [16:40] ledeni, what's next? [16:40] bleh [16:40] HexaChop, Sorry, was having a shower man. Learning this system. [16:40] ducasse: does speed also depend on used percentage? (how much data I store in the unit) [16:41] HexaChop,check restricted software [16:41] Speiros, I am not sure if it worth the price it comes with (having nearly all of your braincells destroyed). [16:41] ledeni, there says nvidia drivers [16:41] ledeni, and I can select one of them [16:41] HexaChop,yes [16:42] stanstill: it can, if the drive is very full. [16:42] HexaChop I understand that part. Beginning on the platform is hell awkward. [16:42] darn [16:42] ledeni, it wasn't there before. [16:42] lightdm is not replacing xorg.conf only, wenn nomodeset is set in grub [16:43] HexaChop,select 367 [16:43] btw. how to upgrade from 16.04 to 16.10? [16:43] ok ducasse , which brand would you choose? samsung or crucial? for nvme ssds I mean [16:43] ledeni, selected latest [16:43] HexaChop, ok [16:43] serdar: if everything is working for you I'd advise against upgrading. otherwise it should notify you about the new release automatically in the upgrade manager [16:43] ledeni, after selecting, it reverts back [16:44] HexaChop, how is going ? [16:44] HexaChop, opss [16:44] serdar: if it's not, open software & updates and there change Notify me of a new ubuntu version to "for any new version" [16:44] ioria, I did not need to reinstall ubuntu, it was fine... [16:44] HexaChop, ok, try sudo apt-get instal dclock [16:44] ioria, some of your commands was wrong (missing -f) [16:44] stanstill: absolutely samsung, imo. [16:44] HexaChop, ok, try sudo apt-get install dclock [16:45] ducasse: many thanks for all your answers [16:45] is "many thanks" used in the English speaking world or does it sound foreign? [16:45] EriC^^ The boot loader pulls up a prompt asking for the decryption password. I can't type in that box. The keyboard still works though - I can Alt-Sysreq-reisub. Here's a better link http://paste2.org/e0X91NjD [16:45] stanstill It's still correctly used. [16:45] ioria, E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). [16:45] HexaChop, you can't install anything until you fix the broken pkgs [16:45] hello, is Ubuntu more stable than Debian testing? [16:46] ledeni, opss? [16:46] redundancy stanstill but it's alright [16:46] HexaChop,again sudo apt-get clean all [16:46] Soul_Sample: none of my desktops are working (e21 and plasma) so I cannot use anything x releated [16:46] hi, anyone have a tutorial about using android as wifi receiver?¿ [16:46] ubuntu 16 [16:46] ledeni, done. What goes next? [16:46] I just need to change sources.list, right? [16:46] HexaChop,sudo apt-get install dclock === jstein_ is now known as jstein [16:47] basedmars: if "many thanks" is redundant, the "thanks a lot" is also redundant [16:47] serdar you can just try running sudo do-release-upgrade -d from the terminal [16:47] serdar: just a sec, that would upgrade to 17.04 [16:47] ledeni, E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). [16:47] serdar: hold that command! [16:47] HexaChop, again , you can't install anything until you fix the broken pkgs [16:47] ioria, pkgs? [16:47] what's the name of Soul_Sample it was not working at all [16:47] HexaChop, packages, [16:48] stanstill I don't think grammar and sentence structure are clung to deeply any more in the English language. Especially with texting, and also having many nations speaking some dialect of it. [16:48] ioria, what, that requires reinstall? can't I just run from Live USB to fix it for me? [16:48] HexaChop,close software & updates [16:48] HexaChop, you said you fixed it [16:48] serdar: maybe we should first focus on fixing your desktops, upgrading won't help [16:49] ledeni, closed [16:49] HexaChop,again sudo apt-get clean all [16:49] ioria, I can sense anger in u for some reason. [16:49] HexaChop, lol [16:49] ioria trying to be K.I.T.T. :D [16:49] Soul_Sample: I installed ubuntu two days ago, it was really painful until now [16:50] HexaChop, kitty, kitty [16:50] HexaChop,and sudo apt-get install dclock [16:50] ledeni, E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). [16:50] The car? [16:50] HexaChop, you can't install anything until you fix the broken pkgs lol [16:50] lol [16:50] HexaChop,did you sudo apt-get clean all [16:50] what is the name of 16.10? [16:51] I haven't heard a reference to that for years. [16:51] serdar: yakkety yak [16:51] yakkity yakk [16:51] ledeni, yep [16:51] !ping [16:51] pong! === iczero is now known as wlp1s1 [16:51] thanks [16:51] serdar: but 16.04 is a long term support version, you'll get less software, less themes and less ppa's for the 16.10. and also it has a smaller support window [16:52] HexaChop, can you tell us exactly what you did the first time you log in ? [16:52] serdar: i also had ridiculous network manager issues with 16.10 [16:52] hexachop, did as told - update linux. [16:52] ioria, did as told - update linux. [16:52] HexaChop, uname -r ? [16:53] ioria WHAT? [16:53] uname -r [16:53] HexaChop, what's the output ? [16:53] ioria, 4.8.0-32-generic [16:54] HexaChop, you did run sudo apt full-upgrade or what commands ? [16:54] ioria, sounds about right [16:54] Yeah, I remember that command [16:54] Which are different ways to use Linux on Windows device? [16:54] HexaChop, ok, you ran the upgrades... and then ? nothing more ? [16:55] fund, as always, dual boot, virtualbox or just remove windows and put linyx [16:55] ioria, I don't remember, tbh. [16:55] linux * [16:55] HexaChop, it can't break by itself [16:55] What about live Linux? [16:55] 40 minutes ago. the -f was put before full-upgrade. [16:56] Is it 4th type? [16:56] ioria HexaChop can't he just press up in the terminal and review all the commands, unless it was ages ago? [16:56] ioria, who knows, technology is getting more and more advanced. I hope it will not start a rising against humans. [16:56] HexaChop, Soul_Sample right ... run history in terminal [16:56] ioria, sudo apt-get update (first command) [16:56] HexaChop, and paste [16:56] HexaChop With the amount of syntax errors and upgrades, I don't think you'll have much to worry about:D [16:57] HexaChop, history [16:57] ioria, how to view history? [16:57] HexaChop, history [16:57] HexaChop, type it [16:57] HexaChop: just type history in the terminal and it should give you a list of all of the commands you ran [16:58] ioria, 1 sudo apt0get-update [16:58] 2 sudo apt-get update [16:58] 3 sudo apt-get update [16:58] 4 ps aux | grep dpkg [16:58] 5 sudo apt-get update [16:58] 6 sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [16:58] HexaChop It will probably be a big list mate.

I've been up for nearly 24 hours again! [17:01] Speiros, don't die. [17:01] HexaChop, ok, as soon as you ran dist-upgrade you were forced to run sudo apt-get install -f [17:01] HexaChop I don't intend to just yet. [17:02] HexaChop, that's not normal [17:02] HexaChop, and bytheway, the command it's not dist-upgrade anymore but full-upgrade [17:02] Wasn't it install then upgrade? [17:03] HexaChop, but not sure has been the culprit [17:03] ioria, you are telling me there might be someone who tried to ruin my system? [17:03] HexaChop, oh, please [17:04] HexaChop, no [17:04] ioria, oh, kk.

I have followed the guide on OVH servers and hope that somebody else might have done this with OVH before who could help? [17:16] 14.04.4-64 server is downloading now..

[18:20] popey: I mean, are there any headquarters for the Canonical group else than UK? [18:20] Industrial Ok, so it's separate from the sudo password then it seems? [18:20] mhsabbagh: multiple companies, multiple offices [18:20] ledeni, done. [18:21] well. back to having apt upgrade issues [18:21] Hmm, I see now. So this report is just for the UK office.

It has been nearly 2 FULL DAYS... It is done... [18:50] Yep. Is it working now? [18:50] Speiros. THIS is impossible. [18:51] MOUD: download these then install them by: cd Downloads, sudo dpkg -i kdeconnect*.deb [18:51] Speiros. NOW I get this: E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [18:51] xXEoflaOEXx, ok [18:52] HexaChop How are those broken packages affecting things that you use? [18:52] HexaChop, I mean, as I'm using an older version, but it's fine for what I use it for at present. [18:52] Speiros IDk what is going on. [18:53] HexaChop, Have a play on your computer, and see what is good and what isn't. Maybe the broken packages don't matter. Do you have sound for instance? [18:54] Speiros. Yup. Youtube works. [18:55] HexaChop, So the broken dependencies might not matter...at least yet:) [18:55] SP [18:55] Speiros, it was gone before. [18:55] Speiros, it just appeared out of nowhere. [18:56] MOUD: Is the download finished? [18:56] xXEoflaOEXx, yes, it just finished. [18:56] MOUD: Open the terminal, then run: cd Downloads, then sudo dpkg -i kdeconnect*.deb [18:57] HexaChop It can be frustrating looking, but if things are working, and secure, then the goal is accomplished. [18:57] xXEoflaOEXx, I did but it gave me errors: http://pastebin.com/QgB503Sq [18:58] Speiros, DRIVER is not installed, and nothing is accomplished. [18:58] ledeni, could you please and try to assist further? [18:58] HexaChop, ok [18:59] HexaChop,can you open software & updates [18:59] HexaChop, and unclick restricted === liam_ is now known as Guest35338 [19:00] ledeni, OK, thanks. [19:00] ledeni, unchecked [19:00] HexaChop,sudo apt-get clean all [19:01] HexaChop, and sudo apt-get install vim [19:01] ledeni, done [19:01] MOUD: Move these 2 .deb files to /var/cache/apt/archives using sudo mv kdeconnect*.deb /var/cache/apt/archives, then do sudo updatedb, then install kubuntu-desktop again. [19:01] ledeni, E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [19:02] xXEoflaOEXx, ok [19:02] HexaChop, and sudo apt-get -f install [19:02] Hello when I plug in an HDMI cable I get video but sound doesnt go through my TV, I have checked sound preferences and no hardware or output selection is available for the HDMI cable, can anyone help me? I am using Ubuntu Mate 16.1 [19:03] How do I install shift-command in Ubuntu? [19:03] ledeni, Reading package lists... Done [19:03] Building dependency tree [19:03] Reading state information... Done [19:03] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [19:03] HexaChop, and sudo apt-get install vim [19:04] ledeni, [19:04] !info shift-command [19:04] ledeni, E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [19:04] Package shift-command does not exist in yakkety [19:04] xXEoflaOEXx, more dependencies: http://pastebin.com/140uCZbX [19:04] !info ubuntu [19:04] Package ubuntu does not exist in yakkety [19:04] HexaChop What is the broken package doing? [19:05] MOUD: sudo apt-get -f install [19:05] Speiros, it says that I HAD broken packages... WUT? :O [19:05] Hi. I want to debug a program that is running from the terminal. is there anyway to do debugging using eclipse? please note that i am still a beginner. thanks [19:05] HexaChop, If it's not causing any dramas, it's not worth stressing over. [19:05] HexaChop, In my opinion, that is. [19:06] Speiros only that it doesn't let me instakk [19:06] the program is written in C [19:06] Speiros only that it doesn't let me install anything. "no biggie". [19:06] what is this shift-command louisdk . I can't seem to find it in apt [19:06] nvm im dumb [19:06] Ammonium351: maybe you should try #eclipse channel [19:06] HexaChop, So you can't install anything? Have you tried the software centre? [19:06] Speiros, it doesn't even work. === earth_ is now known as basedmars [19:06] HexaChop, ledeni suggestion: could synaptic fix the broken packages? [19:07] HexaChop, the software centre doesn't open for you? [19:07] l0llip0p thanks I will try there [19:07] HexaChop, It's the orange briefcase thing on your left side toolbar (for want of a better word) [19:08] if you mean ubuntu software, it does open up [19:08] earth_:It stands for shift positional parameters and is used in bash scripting. [19:08] xXEoflaOEXx, it's done. now what? [19:08] HexaChop, Okay, try to upload say...gweled [19:08] Speiros, but I doubt you can find drivers there. [19:08] MOUD: Reinstall plasma-desktop again [19:09] louisdk: shift is a bash builtin. Ubuntu comes with bash by default. I'm not quite sure what you want to install. [19:09] pavlos, synaptic? [19:09] HexaChop, Depending on the drivers, yes and no. If you've programs already on your computer, they should be called in automatically with the commands. Still, I think you're missing one driver, and taht it works fine. [19:09] Speiros, it's my GPU Driver, I am stuck at very blurry graphics. [19:10] HexaChop, Okay. [19:10] HexaChop, just another package manager [19:10] ledeni, what do u mean? [19:10] According to this website http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/scripting/posparams, it is already built in louisdk [19:11] HexaChop,synaptic ==> just another package manager [19:11] HexaChop, synaptic is a package manager [19:11] Hi. What are some chiclet keyboards that are compatible with linux distros? I'm thinking about the apple one. any suggestions? [19:11] Jordan_U, basedmars: A friend of mine can't find the command in bash on his Ubuntu. Whatever we just use my Debian or Arch box instead. [19:11] ledeni, let's fix those broken packages. Maybe pavlos could help, too. [19:12] HexaChop, There are drivers on Synaptic, but as mentioned, you will be pulling drivers to your machine that may be incorrect. [19:12] HexaChop, synaptic could be under Admin tools. If you dont have it (and as I understood, you cannot install anything), wont help [19:12] HexaChop: do you know which packages are broken? [19:12] l0llip0p certainly not, it doesn't show. [19:13] HexaChop: try 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' [19:13] l0llip0p, no output. [19:13] HexaChop, to recap, you were able to do update/upgrade but trying to install anything complains about broken packages. install -f did not help, right? [19:14] pavlos, sounds aaaaabbbboooouuuttt right. [19:14] louisdk, the command is 'shift' in bash ubuntu 16.04. Got it from the man page [19:14] HexaChop, apt-mark showhold [19:14] MOUD: Is it installing? [19:14] ledeni, no output. [19:14] HexaChop: what does 'dpkg -l |grep -v ii' give you? [19:15] l0llip0p, take a look. http://termbin.com/teu3 [19:16] xXEoflaOEXx, it just finished but got an error. http://pastebin.com/vxfA5wLr [19:16] HexaChop, dpkg --get-selections | grep hold [19:17] HexaChop: okay what does: 'dpkg --get-selections |grep -v installed' [19:18] ledeni, no output [19:19] So, I'm trying to get a win8.1 machine to see a couple of shared printers on ubuntu 16.10. They are both enabled and shared, but the windows box is not seeing them. Any suggestions? [19:19] l0llip0p, http://termbin.com/hoym. [19:19] l0llip0p, http://termbin.com/hoym [19:19] HexaChop,sudo apt-get autoremove [19:19] MOUD: Try to download this: https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/staging-kdeapplications/+files/kaccounts-providers_16.04.3-0ubuntu1~ubuntu16.04~ppa61_amd64.deb [19:20] louisdk: How exactly are they trying to use "shift"? It's definitely there. It's "shift" rather than "shift-command", and you won't find it in /bin/ because it's a builtin rather than an external command (because it needs to be). [19:20] xXEoflaOEXx, ok, then what? [19:21] TIL: installing ubuntu on (apparently) a slow pendrive works, but it takes HOURS [19:21] ledeni, Reading package lists... Done [19:21] Building dependency tree [19:21] Reading state information... Done [19:21] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [19:21] HexaChop, sudo apt-get update [19:21] vegii, adding persistence takes a very long time [19:22] MOUD: Open the terminal again, and cd to Downloads then do: sudo dpkg -i kaccounts-providers*.deb [19:22] usb-c will hopefully change all that [19:23] nedstark: nah, I mean installing it, not creating a liveusb [19:23] HexaChop, sudo apt-get full-upgrade [19:23] How's the os speed nedstark . Any lag or freezing? [19:23] xXEoflaOEXx, http://pastebin.com/nBYUyz5p [19:23] HexaChop, have you tried, sudo dpkg --configure -a (cant remember) [19:23] ledeni, http://pastebin.com/mqKyxLFs [19:23] I mean vegii . Sorry nedstark [19:23] basedmars, i've never had good luck with pen drives OSs except the non-persistent kind [19:24] pavlos, I can't remember too. [19:24] he has [19:24] sry he/she [19:24] MOUD, sudo apt-get purge account-plugin-google [19:24] hi guys [19:24] basedmars: it's still on 83% installing, but the terminal is responsive... [19:25] does anyone know how i can invert the fn-keys-function in xubuntu? [19:25] HexaChop, trusty ? you have a trusty repo [19:25] hello, it's been 2 days that i'm trying to create and seed a torrent from my ubuntu server machine and it is not working, neither downloading nor seeding. I have installed a vnc server just for that and even in transmission, i manage to create the torrent, get all the file but there's no seeding, even if i add a ubuntu torrent from the official website it doesn't download, i have opened the required port so ... [19:25] atm if i want to use the standard f1,f2,...,f12 keys I have to hold down the fn-key [19:26] guillaume___: is that a vps? [19:26] guillaume___ is your IS blocking torrents? [19:26] *ISP [19:26] iora repo? [19:26] ioria, repo? [19:26] HexaChop, open software & updates [19:26] HexaChop, repository [19:26] ledeni, sure [19:26] what torrent client are you using? [19:27] ioria, where are repositories and what they do? [19:27] HexaChop, Trusty being the 14.4 version [19:27] HexaChop, other software [19:27] HexaChop, they give you sw for your distro [19:27] xXEoflaOEXx, it's done. [19:27] ledeni, yes? [19:27] HexaChop, but you are yakkety not trusty [19:27] MOUD: Now do: sudo dpkg -i kaccounts-providers*.deb [19:27] ioria, ye, I think it is yakkety [19:27] ledeni, what next? [19:27] HexaChop, trusty is 14.04 you are 16.10 [19:28] xXEoflaOEXx, same error but now is facebook-plugin :S [19:28] ioria exactly [19:28] *plugin-facebook [19:28] HexaChop, untick http://ppa.launchpad.net/graphics-drivers/ppa/ubuntu [19:28] HexaChop, so you shouldn't have it [19:28] MOUD, sudo apt-get purge plugin-facebook [19:28] ioria How does a person check to see which repository they've got? [19:29] ledeni, unticked four boxes. [19:29] ioria, what are you suggesting? [19:29] HexaChop, apt update or chech your /etc/apt/sources.list [19:29] xXEoflaOEXx, it's done. Also it seems that the package was installed successfully [19:29] HexaChop, ok [19:29] HexaChop, i don't know how a trusty repo is in your sources.list [19:29] MOUD: now reinstall kubuntu-desktop.

Done [19:29] HexaChop, sudo apt-get update [19:30] using something like root explorer or its unpaided verson [19:30] HexaChop, i think it's wrong [19:30] xXEoflaOEXx, that's odd: http://pastebin.com/ADDZ3NNS [19:30] HexaChop, comment the trusty sources with '#' in sources.list [19:31] MOUD: That means it installed kubuntu-desktop successfully. [19:31] xXEoflaOEXx, ok, going to restart then. [19:31] I wonder how the repo got mixed up in the first place ledeni . What's the lsb_release [19:31] ledeni, I can't send you the log, but it is basically the same as for iora. [19:32] ledeni, ioria* [19:32] basedmars, lsb_release is for displaying a version of Ubuntu you are using. [19:32] HexaChop, sudo apt-get update [19:32] ioria, sources.list is where? [19:32] HexaChop: /etc/apt/ [19:32] HexaChop, /etc/apt/ [19:32] Yes xXEoflaOEXx thank you [19:32] basedmars, you are welcome. [19:33] ledeni, http://termbin.com/up2v [19:33] I mean what is the lsb_release for the said system [19:33] HexaChop, /etc/apt/sources.list the 'ri' flag you have in the dpkg output is weird ... it means it is currently installed, but is about to be removed [19:33] l0llip0p, pavlos where to open it? [19:33] exit [19:33] ioria how to get to that dir? [19:34] HexaChop, you can cat /etc/apt/sources.list to view it [19:34] HexaChop, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list [19:34] Hi! What would be a good place to ask questions about Duplicity? AFAIK they have no IRC channel of their own. [19:34] HexaChop: any luck booting from anything at all yet? [19:34] pavlos, ioria, l0llip0p, cat: /etc/apt/sources.lis: No such file or directory === grumblebee is now known as grumble [19:34] HexaChop, *list [19:35] not lis [19:35] hi , i have an iso 16.04 LTS . is it the latest version of Ubuntu Desktop [19:35] xXEoflaOEXx, I restarted the laptop but ubuntu didn't ask which interface to run, it automatically open the default one (ubuntu) [19:35] tatertots, I am in linux but unable to install drivers, amte. [19:35] HexaChop, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list [19:35] tatertots, mate* [19:35] MOUD, Does it automatically login? [19:35] ledeni, thanks. [19:35] It's the latest version for the LTS line hwpplayer1 . The latest one is 16.10 [19:35] ioria, deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu yakkety main universe multiverse #Adde$ [19:36] hwpplayer1: 16.04 is the lastest Long term support release . There is the short term 16.10 available . [19:36] xXEoflaOEXx, no, it's password protected [19:36] vegii and timyp not it's a dedicated server, but i now managed to make the seeding work but for some reason it doesn't download on the other end, i can see "seeding to 1 of 1 connected user" but i think it could be that it seeds to the tracker does that make sens ? [19:36] HexaChop, that command gives you the ability to edit the file ... move with arrows keys , find the 'trusty sources' and commant them [19:37] HexaChop, but maybe it's a better a new one [19:37] MOUD, Then logout, look at the Ubujntu logo, and click on it, that should display between Ubuntu and Plasma. [19:37] ok i will install 16.04 then [19:37] xXEoflaOEXx, ok [19:37] ioria, http://pastebin.com/Tk74EM1t [19:38] Good afternoon, mates [19:38] HexaChop, it's wrong [19:38] Anyone have much experience with efibootmgr issues? My google-fu has failed me. [19:38] gamemako, hi. [19:38] Gamemako good evening [19:38] ioria, what are you suggesting? [19:39] HexaChop, replace with this http://paste.ubuntu.com/23766189/ [19:39] HexaChop, I think any line with trusty should be commented [19:39] !ask | Gamemako [19:39] Gamemako: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [19:39] HexaChop, as before , cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.back [19:40] Guliianume____ how many seeds are there?

Thank you very much for your help and patience. [19:40] HexaChop: you have to super user [19:40] MOUD, welcome. [19:40] HexaChop, use sudo .. then copy and paste the content of the link i gave you in sources.list [19:40] l0llip0p, ioria, it is already sudo... [19:40] HexaChop, Open it using sudo gedit.

[19:42] hi all - I just added a new drive to a 1404 machine.. there is no activity I know of, yet there is a steady 6M/sec write going on .. what is this ? [19:43] !gksu [19:43] If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [19:43] ioria, I have change the source.list into the one you have specified earlier. [19:43] HexaChop, sudo apt update | nc termbin.com 9999 [19:44] pkexec is the better alternative imho [19:44] ioria, http://termbin.com/a3oa [19:44] HexaChop, it's ok for me, now [19:45] HexaChop, if you installed nvidia from ppa yuo may need to add it again [19:45] ioria it is not installed at all [19:46] HexaChop, can you install vim now (to make sure you can install packages) [19:46] HexaChop, i see something in your last pastebinits [19:46] *saw [19:46] any idea on how to find out what process is writing ? I search `lsof` for a volume name but nothing [19:47] pavlos, sure. Command? [19:47] HexaChop, sudo apt install vim [19:47] darkblue_b: what does lsblk give you? [19:47] darkblue_b: iotop [19:47] pavlos, thx [19:47] pavlos, ioria, works.

[19:48] ioria no joke. :D [19:49] HexaChop, you no longer report broken packages [19:49] HexaChop, sudo apt full-upgrade [19:49] pavlos I think so [19:49] ioria, pavlos, IT UPGRADES FINALLY! [19:49] HexaChop, you can do a sudo apt upgrade [19:50] jatt iotop topions ? [19:50] HexaChop, ok.... just wait, you may need to use -f again [19:50] ioria, kk. [19:50] man iotop darkblue_b [19:50] oh comon [19:50] basedmars : why i can't see 16.04.1 but only 16.04 [19:50] if people suggest iotop then say the full line [19:51] looking for someone who knows ubuntu netorking. [19:51] HexaChop, I suggest install synaptic (good to have ... sudo apt install synaptic) [19:51] Questions: [19:51] Is is possible to set up two interfaces on the same subnet? [19:51] pavlos, installed. [19:51] anyway I see this 6M/sec constant WRITE is still going on this newly added drive.. no idea [19:51] pac1 you mean eht0 and eth0:1 [19:51] what's your 'lsb_release -d' hwpplayer1 [19:52] basedmars : Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS [19:52] ioria, I am awaiting your command. === pedro is now known as Guest2797 [19:52] I suggest 'sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade' hwpplayer1 [19:53] HexaChop, to recap, your system did update/upgrade and CAN install packages [19:53] basedmars : this is the only way to insstall a fresh system. then maybe i can sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade and dist-upgrade then maybe [19:53] sort of. these get renamed. and its usb0 and eth0 which get renamed to enp0s20u10u1 andenp3s0 [19:53] pavlos, yup. [19:54] enp3s0 is the usual connection to my router. [19:54] HexaChop, the next issue is your video I guess [19:54] the other is a Raspberry pi connected via usb. [19:54] HexaChop, what you wanna do ? [19:54] HexaChop, which nvidia driver [19:54] oh, isee [19:54] ioria you said something about -f command [19:55] HexaChop, only if you have issues [19:55] basedmars : do you have any other suggestion ? [19:55] ioria, I can't install NVIDIA drivers, too. === dreamon_ is now known as dreamon [19:55] HexaChop, what command did you issued ? [19:55] ioria let's start from the beggining. [19:55] right [19:55] HexaChop, bow you have the proper repo, it should work [19:55] beginning*, ioria. [19:55] now [19:55] I have a Lenovo S10 netbook, and just installed the "netbook" variant of ubuntu. Would the latest LTS of ubuntu still support my hardware if I upgrade? [19:56] Did you mean you want to install Ubuntu-16.04.1 on a fresh system hwpplayer1 [19:56] HexaChop, what command are you using to tell that 'I can't install NVIDIA drivers' ? [19:56] basedmars : i can download the iso again and setup the system again , do i need that ? [19:56] ioria it was probably because of the wrong repo, [19:56] ioria I tried various commands. [19:57] HexaChop, dpkg -l | grep nvidia* [19:57] ioria, no output. [19:57] Yes. However you could use zsync service to save bandwidth by updating the previous iso hwpplayer1 [19:57] HexaChop, ls /etc/apt/ sources.list.d [19:57] ok iotop genuii -- it looks like ext4lazyinit [19:58] HexaChop, ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d [19:58] hwpplayer1: if all updates are installed you are essentially on 16.04.1 [19:58] this is 1404, I dont recall seeing that, but the name sounds ok [19:58] how to monitor network activities in ubuntu?

[20:09] HexaChop, nothing :þ === Jordy is now known as Jordinary [20:09] codfection, I have windows, too, linux is for programming. :) [20:09] HexaChop, ok nice. [20:09] ioria, it shows :?... [20:09] HexaChop, which language? [20:09] codfection, ty. [20:09] codfection, eng. [20:09] HexaChop, never installed for 2 1070 .... [20:09] programming language :| [20:10] codfection I have 2x ASUS STRIX 1070 GPUs. and 32GB of RAM [20:10] HexaChop, ubuntu's sluggish unity still crashes on your beast PC? (internal error has occured) ? [20:10] HexaChop, prepare for purging operations .... :) [20:10] codfection, python and html, looking forward to C++ and other languages I will leanr while using linux. [20:11] Okay, so here's the gist. I have another crazy 32-bit EFI laptop here (Lenovo Flex 4). Installed Ubuntu, but can't boot directly. Using bootable USB and booting to the internal SD card via grub works. I have installed grub-efi-ia32 and all, but no dice on getting it to boot. The BIOS doesn't recognize the EFI partition or grub, goes to legacy/BIOS boot grub-rescue and tries to find i386-pc which doesn't exist (and can't exist, else [20:11] HexaChop, sudo apt-get install nvidia-375 [20:11] codfection, surprisingly, it does crash a lot. [20:11] HexaChop, what error? [20:11] HexaChop, ubuntu is meant to crash. lol [20:11] codfection had over 500 errors while launching before. [20:12] HexaChop, and no crashes in windows right? [20:12] ioria, it is successfully installing. [20:12] cofection yup. [20:12] HexaChop, yup, that shows how failed ubuntu is [20:12] codfection, yup. [20:12] HexaChop, wait ... [20:12] ioria, yes? [20:12] HexaChop, using encryption, right ? [20:13] ioria I think, so, maybe, yes? [20:13] HexaChop, you should know mate [20:13] ioria I think I did encrypt something, but not my home dir. [20:14] codfection GTA V still laggs on ultra lol :D [20:14] HexaChop, do you insert passphrase when you boot ? [20:14] ioria, no. [20:14] HexaChop, no encryption then [20:14] ioria, there, problem solved. [20:14] yup [20:14] ioria, got a purple window. One of the texts say: UEFI Secure Boot is not compatible with the use of third-party drivers. === edmundnoble is now known as eanoble [20:15] HexaChop, just rebooted ? rigth now , i mean ... [20:16] codfection, UEFI new systems secures you from using any other OS except windows which is BS in my opinion. [20:16] ioria, not yet. [20:16] you mean secureboot [20:16] ioria, it does not allow me to boot [20:16] ioria the installed od the NVIDIA [20:16] ioria of* [20:17] HexaChop, ubuntu has been a total disaster for me. [20:17] ioria, http://pastebin.com/MsRR6prm [20:17] it keeps crashing every time! [20:17] codfection, Hey! Nice to see you on my boat! Tickets are free! [20:18] HexaChop, I think you should disable secureboot [20:18] HexaChop, let's say 'ok' [20:18] HexaChop, and yes, secure boot nuked [20:18] ioria so OK, lemme disable it. [20:19] HexaChop, unity is only being used in ubuntu and not in any other linux distros. no wonder it keeps crashing. devs are incompetent for GUi [20:20] codfection what are you using? [20:20] codfection, you can install it on Arc [20:21] ioria, unity is not found on other distros. I checked it. [20:21] ioria, its for ubuntu exclusively [20:21] codfection, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/unity [20:21] ioria, its the forked version perhaps [20:21] codfection, It seems to be working well on mine, although back in 2010 I did like the gnome desktop too. [20:21] codfection, idk, sy [20:21] Speiros, no crashes at all? [20:21] codfection Why do you think it's causing you problems? [20:22] No, not one [20:22] ubuntu lol [20:22] Not with the unity interface [20:22] codfection, btw, you're right .. is very problematic [20:22] codfection See, I did an update, but wasn't comfortable with it, and resolved the problems by reverting to the one that worked to all my needs. [20:23] HexaChop, so, are nvidia drivers installed? [20:23] codfection It is literally in an "as-is" state, excluding updates. [20:24] you don'thave to touch it or it goes mad [20:24] codfection Not that I'm dissing your problems, but I am stating that not all instances does the unity, nor Ubuntu have problems like that. [20:25] Speiros, idk. ubuntu is holding all packages to make it "stable" and yet those crashes [20:25] ioria I am now 1080p! [20:25] codfection It could very well be that I don't use the computer for many things, excepting making my music and documentation and the such too. [20:25] HexaChop, you damned lucky guy [20:25] codfection Yeah, I appreciate that mate. Something is obviously needing work on to prevent it crashing on your machine. [20:25] ioria, but I am re-installing using sudo dpkg --configure -a because it was interrupted before. Thanks! [20:25] HexaChop, no problem [20:25] ioria, it is fully installed already :D [20:26] HexaChop, ok [20:26] ioria Holy SMOKES it feels amazing for my eyes. [20:26] HexaChop, grgrgrrgrgrgrgr [20:26] ioria exactly. [20:26] HexaChop, i hate you [20:26] ioria, Why? :((((( :D [20:27] HexaChop, kidding .þ [20:27] ioria. I know :D [20:27] HexaChop, gtx 1070 seems to be a very good card [20:27] pavlos, not really. [20:28] pavlos even with 2 of them GTA V laggs. [20:28] at about 50FPS, pavlo.

[20:29] HexaChop, :þ [20:29] HexaChop, :) [20:29] ioria, there :D [20:29] ioria, how do I minimize applications? :DDD [20:30] codfection: if you just want to chat please go to #ubuntu-offtopic [20:30] HexaChop, meaning ? [20:30] ioria, seriously, I can't minimize apps like in windows. [20:30] ducasse, whats wrong? [20:30] ioria there is no "-" here. [20:30] ducasse, tell me how to make this ubuntu not crash on me giving the error "Internal error has occured" [20:31] 16.04 [20:31] HexaChop, oh.... bad news [20:31] ioria, lol, had to drag my mouse up :DDD [20:31] HexaChop, update and full-upgrade again and reboot [20:31] ioria, I am just purely raw-green in linux. [20:32] ioria, lol, had to drag my mouse up :DDDDDD [20:32] HexaChop, update and full-upgrade again and reboot [20:32] ioria, and the thingies appeared. [20:32] where the name is of the app appears the thingies when you put your mouse on the app name [20:33] codfection: depends on what the error is. what crashes exactly? [20:33] codfection: that's the first thing you've said since you came in here that has to do with ubuntu support. [20:33] HexaChop, you can also install another DE [20:33] ioria, the minus appears when you put your mouse on the top bar of the app when it is in full screen [20:33] ioria, let's try, [20:35] HexaChop, oh... well, maybe better fix your actual issue [20:35] k1l_, programs and sometimes desktop. corebird etc. [20:35] ioria, don't you get it? I have no more issues. [20:36] ducasse, read up please and then talk [20:36] HexaChop, oh, great [20:36] HexaChop, you can install gnome, or kde ot xfce4 or stuff if you want ... also lxde [20:36] Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS now it says that :) it's done [20:36] codfection: you have been here before, so you know we cant handle "everything is broken" but need to focus on one issue with specific informations and work on that. [20:36] ioria I can easily switch between those? [20:36] HexaChop, they are all DE for linux [20:36] codfection: i did, all i saw was ranting. provide details on your problem. [20:36] HexaChop, sure [20:37] codfection: it looks to me that you dont want to solve issues but just want to rant out of frustration. then #ubuntu is the wrong place. [20:37] ioria let's DO IT. [20:37] HexaChop, how big is your hard drive ? [20:37] ducasse, would you expect me to be happy and pleased on those horrible crashes? what logic are you using? [20:37] ioria 500GB for linux-only [20:37] k1l_, corebird crashes [20:37] ioria my graphics... letters slightly blur out. [20:37] k1l_, and sometimes unity crashes [20:37] HexaChop, do you know kde ? [20:38] codfection: what version in use? what ubuntu? what exact error? can you start corebird from a terminal and show the errors when it crashes in a pastebin? [20:38] ioria, no? [20:38] ducasse, you look very incompetent to me. please dont provide support with that attitude of yours. you are giving ubuntu community a bad name [20:38] codfection: no, i expect you to stick to support issues here. you've still not provided any details. [20:38] k1l_, 16.04 lts [20:38] codfection see this is why you have problems unresolve man. [20:39] HexaChop, you can install it with apt-get install kubntu-desktop ... but for now i suggest you to became familiar with unity [20:39] If you punch the goalkeeper, the whole team is offside, if you know what I mean. [20:39] codfection: stop that attitude against supporterst while you contributed nothing but ranting so far. if you are too frustrated for working with the support in here come back when you have calmed down. [20:39] codfection: i'm not the one who came in here ranting about how useless ubuntu is. [20:39] k1l_, error appears in gui pop up saying" internal error has occured on 16.04" [20:39] ducasse: let it go, its not helping the issue [20:40] ioria your suggestions seems reasonable. [20:40] ducasse, I am just gonna ignore you. and talk to someone who can actually help me out on ubuntu crashes. thanks [20:40] codfection: i asked you specific questions and tasks === demodemou is now known as demodemouu [20:40] ioria let's do it === demodemouu is now known as demodemou [20:40] k1l_: fine by me.

[20:41] HexaChop: let it go. [20:41] k1l_, not other users. only ducasse who is being oversmart here [20:41] codfection: you are missing the point of my statement [20:41] HexaChop, given your hw and that you are a gamer i suggest you this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto [20:42] ioria, I needed that, despite the fact that I have a monitor Motherboard monitor mounted right into the PC. :D [20:42] HexaChop, ok, explore steam then [20:42] ioria, I can't see GPU though.

[20:59] HexaChop, if you see blurry icons, blurry letter ... you may shutdown and replug the cable [20:59] adu, why its not setting the default audio to pulseaudio? [20:59] codfection: ext4 works fine for me, no problems...but...I am considering migrating to either ZFS or btrfs, and it seems that since btrfs can be built in and more easily booted from, I am wondering how hard and what the potential pitfalls/downfalls are with doing so... [20:59] ioria, ok, brb. [20:59] HexaChop, firmly [20:59] linux_user, whats the big deal between btrfs and ext4 [21:00] linux_user, is there an advantage for SSDs? [21:00] ioria, done. [21:00] codfection, I followed the tutorials to set the default device with pulseaudio, however, after suspend it always selects hdmi (5.1 channel), but my TV is hdmi [21:00] hdmi(stereo) [21:00] adu, which tutorials? [21:00] ioria, still, blurry, my cable is very powerful so IDK what is going on, on windows it seems fine. [21:00] There's a dangerous bug on btrfs linux_user . This could have been fixed tho. I wouldn't use btrfs for production case [21:01] HexaChop, no idea ... try another hdmi port [21:01] HexaChop: how is it blurry [21:01] codfection There was a good article comparing the two: SSD's and HDD's. I can try to find it...? [21:01] codfection, like this http://askubuntu.com/questions/71863/how-to-change-pulseaudio-sink-with-pacmd-set-default-sink-during-playback [21:02] basedmars: what is the big bug in btrfs? [21:02] linux_user: i much prefer zfs, but btrfs is working nicely now in my experience. really nice to have snapshots on /. [21:02] adu, perhaps ask the more experienced users here [21:02] I will absolutely not use btrfs if it has a big can corrupt my files [21:02] then its junk and I wont use it at all [21:02] linux_user, https://twitter.com/btrfs/status/762589934662193152?lang=en [21:02] I hate having to switch from 5.1 to stereo every time i come back from the bathroom :( [21:02] Speiros, what to compare lol. SSD is the best. thats it. [21:02] ducasse, let me see this major bug first that basedmars is talking about [21:03] adu, sad. its too much of work, isnt it [21:03] ducasse: zfs is not bootable on Linux I thought [21:03] Ben64, letters, slightly blurry. [21:03] linux_user: that's for raid 5/6 which i wouldn't use [21:03] ioria, maybe missing some other drivers? [21:03] ioria, on windows, I had to install A LOT more drivers. [21:03] linux_user: it is bootable, but major hassle and unsupported [21:03] ducasse: "not bootable"? [21:03] linux_user, I think it has issues with grub [21:03] codfection Ah, I misread your question. [21:03] HexaChop, mmm, don't think so, but maybe i'am wrong [21:03] linux_user: "not bootable"? [21:04] ducasse: sorry, typo [21:04] k1l_: np [21:04] ioria I have no "Super" button. [21:04] all: first, an unsupported boot of zfs is of disinterest to me [21:04] HexaChop, the network icon in the top bar is blurry ? [21:04] ioria, no [21:04] all: second, I am not planning to use raid 5/6 so that btrfs bug is of no issue to me [21:04] linux_user: you seem to mix things here. [21:04] HexaChop, so what is blurry ? [21:05] huh? [21:05] Speiros, it happens dont worry [21:05] ioria, text is blurry for some reason [21:05] linux_user: you _can_ boot from zfs if you really want to, but on ubuntu it is only supported for data [21:05] HexaChop, alslo in firefox ? [21:05] linux_user: the ubuntu installer doesnt have support to create zfs / partitions. but you can make those manually and have zfs as / partition. [21:05] HexaChop, also in firefox ? [21:05] ioria I am in firefox :D [21:05] ah okay [21:05] Windows button HexaChop ? [21:05] I am fine with btrfs [21:05] if it is supported [21:05] HexaChop, in gedit ? [21:05] I do not need raid 5/6 [21:05] 16.04. just got back from vacation. Hooked my LG monitor back up to my laptop, and it thinks it is a Goldstar, instead, and does not have the correct resolution. [21:06] let me ask this then: [21:06] ioria doesn't seem to be blurry. [21:06] HexaChop, in terminal ? [21:06] is installing too and booting from btrfs supported in the 16.10 installer of Ubuntu? [21:06] linux_user: straight btrfs on single disk or raid 0/1 works fine imo [21:06] EDinNY made me laugh :D [21:06] linux_user: yes [21:06] good [21:06] HexaChop: any suggestions? [21:06] ioria terminal is very not blurry. sharp. [21:06] raid 0/1 is all I plan on at the moment [21:06] whence this bug is fixed it should be just a kernel upgrade I'd think anyway [21:06] HexaChop, so only firefox ? [21:07] not reformatting the btrfs partitions [21:07] EDinNY, I have no idea. Why would it switch for no reason? Linux is weird. [21:07] EDinNY, set the resolution using xrandr and save the layout. done. !next [21:07] ioria, seems like so, yea. [21:07] HexaChop, apt-cache policy firefox [21:07] !next [21:07] !ping [21:07] pong! [21:07] !debian [21:07] Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See https://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/ubuntu-and-debian - !Repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! [21:08] !arch [21:08] ioria, http://termbin.com/rndi [21:08] HexaChop, it's ok [21:09] ioria, what do u mean? [21:09] HexaChop, it's updated [21:09] ducasse: so if I wish to use btrfs, too boot from it and install too it, and use raid 0/1, then it seems like it'd be okay to do that in general? [21:09] ioria, oh, ok. [21:09] ioria, I have no audio realtek driver [21:10] HexaChop, i have to go, good luck [21:10] sy [21:10] linux_user: just keep backups [21:10] Hello world [21:10] Hi generic:) [21:10] ioria bye [21:10] linux_user: in *my* opinion, yes. i know several people who use btrfs under the circumstances i mentioned earlier, none of them has had problems. [21:10] linux_user: only raid 5/6 is problematic, and has always been so. [21:11] speiros, how to get raltek drivers on linux? [21:12] speiros, realtek* [21:12] HexaChop I dont recall. Let me see if there's a page for it. [21:12] linux_user: you can always ask in #btrfs, but they're sort of biased ;) [21:12] speiros, OK, thanks. [21:13] I'm trying to install a package called "librespot" from github via rust and cargo, and am getting this error when compiling "syntex_syntax": https://paste.ubuntu.com/23762603/ [21:13] true true [21:13] how can i mount an ext4 external HDD [21:13] any ideas what could be causing the error? That's the full --verbose output. [21:13] though part of my question was also install support for Ubuntu [21:13] they would send me here ostensibly had I asked that there [21:14] linux_user: i recommend zfs for data storage and other things that is not /, though. it's just nicer and more mature. [21:14] HexaChop Here's an article from 2014 (my version) https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2205497 [21:14] ducasse: I agree entirely [21:14] I am about to build a FreeNAS server too [21:14] HexaChop, Actually, it was a couple of months prior. [21:14] that will be pure ZFS [21:15] hwpplayer1_ What is happening? Have you plugged it in already? [21:15] Speiros, hmm.. [21:15] HexaChop What is wrong with it? [21:16] Speiros : i just formatted the old ext4 system disk , and create an external disk ext4 formatted. But i have permisson issue [21:16] linux_user: on my desktop, / is btrfs, /home is zfs and the rest is zfs over nfs. works really well. [21:16] hwpplayer1_, Ah, I see. I can also only open my HDD on admin, and then share it to this account. [21:16] hwpplayer1_, Is that the same issue? [21:17] Since you guys are using zfs, would you recommend zfs for cold hdd storage. I mean unplugged linux_user ducasse . I've been wanting to use zfs, but no use-cases yet. [21:17] !gentoo [21:17] Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Arch Linux, Manjaro, Slackware (using other packaging systems) [21:17] Sperios : something like that [21:17] hwpplayer1_, Ok, so the problem is accessing the HDD from the user account? [21:18] Sperios : yep [21:18] hwpplayer1_: so you can mount it [21:18] Ben64 : i was searching for that [21:19] basedmars: i don't see why not. [21:19] hwpplayer1_: explain exactly what is going on [21:19] hwpplayer1_, Are you also the admin on your computer? [21:20] Speiros : Yes this is my own computer [21:20] Ok:) [21:20] Speiros : i'm searching how to mount a disk on Ubuntu [21:21] hwpplayer1_, So you're not running Ubuntu currently, but wanting to from the ext4? [21:21] hwpplayer1_: open disk utility, select partition, press "mount" (play icon) [21:21] hello [21:22] Speiros : I run Ubuntu Desktop , i have an external HDD [21:22] -x [21:22] Did some more reading on that page ducasse, yeah if you do not use raid 5/6 it seems fine to use btrfs [21:23] granted, ZFS with raidz is better [21:23] but as an upgrade to ext4 for booting Ubuntu I like btrfs from what I saw so far [21:23] vegii : Ext4 (version 1.0) — Mounted at /media/hwpplayer1/989ffdae-0284-4519-8880-8b1c7445ecc6 it says that on Gnome Disks [21:23] hwpplayer1_, Ok, so what disk do you want to mount? [21:23] FreeNAS is a very good way to run ZFS and have a lot of options for it! [21:24] hwpplayer1_, Did you mean hdd and not disk? [21:24] Speiros : it's an External HDD , i can't write something on it [21:24] hwpplayer1_, Yep, okay. That's what I thought you meant, but when you mentioned disk I was confused. [21:24] :) [21:24] hwpplayer1_: also, you shouldn't need root to mount an external hdd on ubuntu desktop afaik [21:25] Hello ! The canon printer driver's daemon delays the shutdown of my machine by 5 minutes (time betwen the sigterm and the sigkill). I couldn't find anywhere how to set the timeout to sigkill to 5 seconds or something [21:25] vegii, that's true, but it is an issue. I have the same on my computer. [21:25] vegii : so how can i use that external HDD [21:25] linux_user: yep. btrfs is great for /, gives you some nice features. check out apt-btrfs-snapshot. [21:26] hwpplayer1_: so it is mounted, so you don't need to know how to mount it [21:26] hwpplayer1_: if I had that problem, I'd try unmounting it and mounting again in gnome-disks === ricardo is now known as Guest8699 [21:26] hwpplayer1_: sounds like you just need to give permission to your user to write to it [21:26] apt-btrfs-snapshot is a package? [21:26] hwpplayer1_: is anything on it? [21:27] Ben64 That is it, yes. [21:27] Spieros, I am in Windows now. [21:27] Speiros* [21:27] HexaChop, Okay. Are you happier with it? [21:27] Ben64 : yep , i need to add my hwpplayer1 user to that group [21:27] I see that package now [21:27] Speiros, how to set up GRUB so I could select between windows and Linux? [21:27] interesting! [21:27] Ben64 : But which group is that ? [21:28] hwpplayer1_: sudo chown hwpplayer1:hwpplayer1 /media/hwpplayer1/989ffdae-0284-4519-8880-8b1c7445ecc6 [21:28] hwpplayer1_: there might be files on that disk that have some unix permissions for other users. chown or sudo nautilus should work [21:29] Ben64 : Thanks , it was that [21:29] Thanks friends , now i need to sleep [21:29] Have a good day [21:29] goodnight:) [21:30] I tried almost everything, even tried to pkill the daemon before shutdown, it doesn't work [21:30] It's the CAPT printerdriver v2.70, it's the latest [21:30] Speiros, are you there? [21:31] HexaChop, I'll have a look on the net, and see what's there, as I don't now grub either:) Sorry man, but my knowledge base is very, very small, and I believe it's getting more restricted as time goes on. [21:31] Speiros, OK. [21:31] I checked all the config files to see if there is something related to timeout between sigterm and sigkill but couldn't find [21:31] HexaChop, is grub installed? [21:31] Anybody knows how GRUB works? [21:31] glitchd, yes, it came with linux [21:32] HexaChop, and you are able to boot into linux with it, correct? [21:32] glitchd, yes. [21:32] HexaChop, are you positive that you did not delete the windows paritition? [21:32] ducasse: I am going to do a 16.10 install under VMware and play with btrfs a bit on root [21:33] I am back, switched IRC channels. [21:33] IRC clients rather [21:33] HexaChop, are you positive that you did not delete the windows paritition? [21:33] glithcd i am in windows now lol [21:33] linux_user: yes, get used to it before using it 'live' [21:33] glitchd, I am in windows now, lol. [21:33] HexaChop, well i am not sure how to fix grub from windows.. [21:34] glitchd, my linux is on another distant harddrive. [21:34] linux_user: learn how to make snapshots and rollback etc [21:34] HexaChop, when you next boot into linux run "sudo update-grub" and see if it finds windows [21:34] glitchd, let me boot into it right now. [21:34] HexaChop, alrighty then [21:35] is there ubuntu productivity application, which lets you set goals to achive within a particular time and alarm you.basically like a timetable [21:36] some time ago I thought I needed one large hdd/ssd for all OSes to be displayed in grub but thankfully, reality is much nicer [21:36] digital_ghost: are you looking for a project management tool? [21:36] anybody know if NEC Corporation uPD720200 USB 3.0 Host Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 30 [XHCI]) support is broken in 4.4.0-58-generic ? I have problem with it. [21:36] ducasse: exactly, that is what the vmware instance would be fore...to play with it safely before I migrate to it entirely [21:38] HexaChop As a side point, I did find an article similar, but from not being able to get into linux. It's here: - https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2348841 [21:38] bekks:not really , just simple to-do list like app.kind of like the one you find on android [21:39] brb [21:39] digital_ghost: I am not using Android, so I dont know anything about that "app". [21:40] what's a good video desktop recorder? [21:41] bekks:I wasn't mentioning any particular app.Just saying there are lot of to-do apps for android and iphone [21:41] Speiros, I cant boot into linux it is just purple screen. [21:42] . [21:42] Speiros, after inserting all HDDs and CDROM. [21:42] HexaChop, Sorry, you were away and I didn't realise. Heres a link. [21:42] https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2348841 [21:43] HexaChop, This is probably your same problem? [21:43] When installing windows ssd was disconnected. [21:44] Speiros, [21:44] HexaChop, Yep? [21:44] Above text, Speiros. [21:45] Yes, the link I sent you was answered about 40 minutes ago, by what appears to be the same problem. [21:45] HexaChop, Is it different? [21:47] Speiros, it shows just blank purple screen. [21:47] HexaChop, Yeah, I see...I wonder what disappeared from the file to make it not boot up. [21:48] Speiros, I reconnected all HDDS, SSDS and CDROM. [21:48] trying to learn how to use dd to backup my ~500gb hd. what block size should i use? [21:48] HexaChop, im guess you were able to boot from live usb. [21:49] HexaChop Ok, so backpedalling a bit...these weren't connected before when your Ubuntu was working? [21:49] lasersaber with just one HDD that has linux in it, then i can boot. [21:49] Speiros, basically. [21:50] HexaChop, sounds like you still need to update-grub to fix the grub config then [21:50] HexaChop, Okay. Can you go back to how it was, and see if it works firstly, and then we can load one at a time, and see which one is causing the issue...probably the CD drive. [21:51] hey, i have ubuntu MATE and recently notifications are not running; when i try to listen to some audio, i assume the sound settings are muted since I can't hear anything, in genral: apps that work as tray icons no longer opens up or rather not showing up, and i was wandering how i can fix this issue. [21:51] Speiros, omg if its booting from cd and not the hd, i will seriously muck my pants..lol [21:52] glitchd It isn't about the booting, but about what hardware was added since the install that worked...at least that is how I'm seeing it. Then we can work out what drivers are needed, if that is the problem. [21:53] is it much work to add vlan tagging on nic's ? [21:53] No. [21:54] glitchd But yeah, how frustrating if it ended totally back at square one, although I doubt it very much:) [21:56] Hi, I'm doing do-release-upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 like aptitude update; aptitude upgrade and do-release-upgrade. Everything went fine and after reboot I'm not able to ssh the server but it's pingable and only FTP port is active, I can connect with FTP user. I can use rescue mode from hosting and after chroot to my working env I'm doing lsb_release -a and it shows me 14.04. So now I know that server boots and even vsftpd starts, but nothing else. How s [21:56] hould I debug this? What actions to do? If I set sshd_config port to 2222 and make service ssh restart, everyhing works fine. [21:56] HexaChop, so now u can boot with live ubuntu but only see a purple screen? [21:58] marchelly: see if the ssh server is running? [21:58] marchelly, maybe #ubuntu-server [21:58] marchelly so setting it to 2222 solves it? [21:58] k1l_, just in chroot [21:58] Speiros, taken out the CDROM, everything works fine except there is no Loading screen. [21:58] Speiros, I am chating to you via linux now. [21:58] HexaChop, What do you mean loading screen? [21:59] MonkeyDust, no, just in chroot. Just fortesting that sshd isworking fine running it by hand, and yes,it'sworking. [21:59] Speiros, there are no logo Ubuntu and no dots. [21:59] marchelly: try to restart ssh and see if there is an error? maybe the old ssh conf had changes that dont work with the new ssh version? [21:59] k1l_, no, when running ssh in chroot it works fine and I'm able to connect remotely [21:59] HexaChop, boot using the advanced option recovery then resume booting [22:00] marchelly: so its just not starting at startup? [22:00] lasersaber, reason for that? [22:00] lasersaber, how to update GRUB [22:00] Hello; I've tried installing the DMD compiler with a .deb file from http://dlang.org/download.html, but when I try to install it with dpkg, it throws at me an error "attempt to replace /usr/bin/dman". It seems there is a file name conflict with an already existing file on my disk. What should I in this case? (I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) [22:01] k1l_, hw can I debug rc booting services, as it looks likethat it only boots vsftpd and nothing else (there are apache, nginx, and other services set to be started on boot) [22:01] HexaChop, i was having similar issue and that's how i was able to boot into ubuntu [22:01] k1l_, yes, it's not starting on server start [22:01] marchelly: its using upstart on 14.04 [22:01] lasersaber I am in ubuntu right now [22:01] Someone suggested me to use dpkg-divert [22:01] lasersaber I don't want to do that every time though [22:02] Speiros, how to update GRUB? [22:02] k1l_, so how should I fix this? upstart? [22:02] i am getting package not found error , all the time. need assistance to fix it [22:02] marchelly: ubuntu did use "upstart" as the init untill ubuntu 15.04. [22:02] Hello everybody [22:03] can't update repo [22:03] HexaChop, is ubuntu installed or u on liveusb? [22:03] digital_ghost what's the outcome of cat /etc/issue [22:03] k1l_, Iwas using rcconf before to set services that should run on boot [22:03] lasersaber, no on HDD, I have drivers installed already [22:03] so now I should use another techniq? [22:03] Can someone correct me if I'm wrong... [22:04] marchelly: so maybe that is the reason why that doesnt work now on 14.04 [22:04] MonkeyDust: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS \n \l [22:04] !upstart | marchelly [22:04] marchelly: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [22:04] HexaChop, I believe it's man update grub [22:04] I need assitance in regards to using a vpn. I dont want to set up a server, I simply want to connect trough a VPN. Any help is appreciated. [22:04] speiros, maybe sudo update-grub? [22:04] HexaChop, 16.04? [22:04] lasersaber, 16.10. [22:04] marchelly: there should be the initjobs .conf in /etc/init [22:05] HexaChop, sounds good. man should pull up a manual for it. [22:05] digital_ghost what's the outcome of sudo apt update ... use this page to show it to the channel ... http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [22:05] k1l_, okay, let me chroot one more time and check that. [22:06] Everyone, why when booting ubuntu, there is no loading screen? [22:06] HexaChop, use Grub Customizer [22:07] HexaChop: there is as standard. you get the purple ubuntu screen and then the login screen [22:07] I don't know whether to ask here in in #python, but can anyone tell me why python3-pip has such big dependencies, including python *-dev packages? [22:07] HexaChop, http://tipsonubuntu.com/2016/10/15/install-grub-customizer-ubuntu-16-10/ [22:07] k1l_ I get nothing just purple screen [22:07] MonkeyDust: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23767060/ [22:07] *here or in [22:07] HexaChop: except you did remove "quiet splash" for debugging reasons [22:07] Hello everybody, how to connect through a VPN on ubuntu?

I mean is it become unusable tho HexaChop [22:09] digital_ghost ppas are not supported here, try disabling them, first [22:10] lasersaber, how to re-enable loading screen? [22:10] digital_ghost: the qucs PPA doesnt have any support for 16.04. so remove that [22:10] okay i see, dont i need any third party client? like cyberghost etc? [22:10] k1l_, there is an initjon in /etc/init/ssh.conf [22:10] *initjob [22:10] johnnybravo: no, not really. [22:10] sudo startx [22:10] ? [22:10] no [22:11] lasersaber: no, dont do that [22:11] never mind [22:11] k1l_ how to re-enable loading screen? [22:12] HexaChop: ? what screen exactly? [22:12] k1l_ The boot loading screen. [22:12] HexaChop: do you mean the "login screen"? or the purple screen while the system is loading (the one i posted) [22:12] k1l_ the one you posted [22:12] I think he meant the one you posted [22:13] HexaChop, the boot loader screen where you choose OS you want to boot? [22:13] HexaChop: do you see a black screen with the kernel messages running on boot? [22:13] lasersaber, no, the one that shows laoding animations [22:13] I think he's seeing a blank purple screen [22:13] k1l_ just purple screen, absolutely nothing else. [22:14] lasersaber, loading* [22:14] marchelly: what runlevels are named inside the file to start on? [22:15] start on runlevel [2345] [22:15] marchelly: that is correct. [22:15] I don't have the loading screen too. It boot so fast, it just go right to the user login. that's on hdd btw [22:15] It's usable, so it's alright [22:15] marchelly: maybe you need to look into syslog or upstart log if there is something happening [22:15] k1l_, let me check this, moment [22:15] HexaChop, do you get a user login screen? [22:16] basedmars, for me it takes about a minute, I don't know if it is frozen or loading... [22:16] lasersaber, no. [22:16] HexaChop: did you remove "quiet splash" from the kernel line on boot? [22:16] Anyone able to help me figure out why this file refuses to run, saying it doesn't exist despite ls -al saying it does exist with execute perms? https://zerobin.net/?759a431f1eda45a2#EgavSS3O8HuMCeQjqhfze4GgEszLBA1zY5+MgCgmWUw= [22:16] k1l_, there is nouveau.modeset=0 instead. [22:16] This is on Ubuntu Desktop 16.04, 64-bit [22:17] HexaChop: ok, try to add "quiet splash" on the grub one time to test if that is working [22:17] k1l_ but it resets back to quiet splash after rebooting anyways. [22:17] !nomodeset | HexaChop this explains how to add/rmeove stuff there for one time boot. just add "quiet splash" [22:17] HexaChop this explains how to add/rmeove stuff there for one time boot. just add "quiet splash": A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [22:18] SierraKomodo cd to the folder and then use ./Franz [22:18] k1l_ let me reboot and check... [22:19] Is it by design that the system beep (or bell or whatever) is disabled in Ubuntu? If so, why? [22:19] Context for my question: https://askubuntu.com/a/587311 [22:20] tekeli-li: yes its the standard setting. on most distros, i guess [22:20] It's not just me than. That's nice to know, but the *why* is also of interest to me. [22:21] MonkeyDust: That didn't work either. As a note, this is me trying to debug why it won't run when I double-click the icon in file manager. https://zerobin.net/?583d865949d656c8#W3ElY2NV0Awio1LU+JcdbbZO81Vpt3ULPoonQKsKfFg= [22:21] k1l_, nothing interesting there on I donot know what I'm looking for [22:22] k1l_, told you it would reset, but this time I am getting the dots and a purple strip underneath... [22:23] SierraKomodo pastebin cat Franz ... http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [22:23] HexaChop, do you a screen like this? https://i.stack.imgur.com/8RYuZ.png [22:23] I think it would be helpful if you explain it step by step for every instruction k1l_ . He mention he's raw green in linux before [22:23] I [22:23] HI [22:23] HexaChop: i linked you a howto to one time test it. i know that method is resetting since that is the idea of "one time testing" [22:23] lasersaber, yes, but without the blue dots. [22:23] HI [22:23] NEGA [22:23] MonkeyDust: Is it normal to be flooding terminal with random characters when I do that [22:24] SierraKomodo use this page http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [22:24] lasersaber, only when hitting shift though. [22:24] marchelly: hmm, i am not a init specialists. [22:25] k1l_, why am I getting loading dots and black strip underneath, everything else is black background. [22:25] k1l_, why am I getting loading dots and black strip underneath, everything else is black background. [22:25] Could you post a picture of it HexaChop for reference [22:25] k1l_, Okay, I'm adding hook to vsftpd.conf as the last line to run sshd -D [22:25] HexaChop, try selecting the recovery mode option [22:26] basedmars, not really, I would need to reboot again [22:26] Hey anyone here wanna help me with a mini-series I'm starting, "The Linux NOOB and a GURU"? [22:26] k1l, rebooted the server and now even ftp is not working (server pingable!) [22:26] lasersaber and reason for that is? [22:26] that's nice )) [22:26] profetix that's for #ubuntu-offtopic [22:26] Yeah, no one ever responds there [22:26] HexaChop: video driver/card issues [22:26] profetix If you have one called "The Linux NOOB who doesn't learn and a GURU", I might be able to play the noob:? [22:27] lasersaber, basedmars and others, you are very supportive, I like it. [22:27] k1l, driver is installed, I have 2x ASUS STRIX 1070 GPUs. [22:27] lol [22:27] HexaChop: i still dont know what kernel modes you have and tested now. [22:27] Hah! I was looking to be the noob but happy to share that role haha [22:27] k1l, shouldn't you be k1l_? [22:27] HexaChop, so u can boot into ubunt [22:27] It kinda is related to support ;0) [22:28] tekeli-li: the majority thinks that pc speaker is annoying. so it was turned off by default [22:28] lasersaber I am in ubuntu now [22:28] MonkeyDust: It gave 72.1 MB of output to a textfile when I ran cat > ~/Documents/cat.txt, said file is refusing to open in gedit [22:28] HexaChop, can open a terminal? [22:28] profetix It sounds good mate. Best wishes with it, but I couldn't really help:) [22:28] lasersaber, yes. [22:28] can you* [22:28] ok [22:28] SierraKomodo it's not a bash script? [22:29] SierraKomodo that was retorical [22:29] HexaChop, is the system hooked to the internet? [22:29] It's supposed to be a executable that I can't get to run at all [22:29] Came directly from here: http://meetfranz.com/ [22:29] connected* [22:29] lasersaber, I am talking to you through ubuntu. [22:30] I used franz too SierraKomodo . Open it is as easy as double clicking [22:30] have you tried in terminal? sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade [22:30] basedmars: Nothing happens when I double click. [22:30] Does it have executable permission SierraKomodo ? [22:31] lasersaber, yes, a billion times already [22:31] basedmars: Yes. [22:31] What about the filesize. 67mb SierraKomodo ? [22:31] HexaChop, ok, have you rebooted since the update and upgrade? [22:32] basedmars: 72.1 MB [22:32] lasersaber I upsated and upgraded a while back. [22:32] HexaChop, ok [22:32] The archive is version 4.04 [22:32] lasersaber, updated* [22:32] 4.0.4* [22:33] HexaChop, hmmm i dont know then :-/ [22:33] k1l_, u there? [22:33] k1l, u there? [22:33] Yes mine is 4.0.4 too SierraKomodo . Franz is 1.3.1 version [22:35] HexaChop, maybe u can share your screen so we can have a better look [22:35] HexaChop: yes [22:35] Can you paste sha256 of the packages SierraKomodo . 'sha256sum Franz-linux-x64-4.0.4.tgz' [22:35] Mine is 65e63c9aa71c46f391ce5b62bca0b77dcae59d0cef18691e39e4c5ec24a85e6b [22:35] lasersaber, share? [22:36] HexaChop, so we can see what you see [22:36] k1l, Thank you for answering. Have a good day. [22:36] lasersaber tw type stuff? [22:37] so we can see what you're looking at [22:37] basedmars: Need to redownload the archive; I deleted it after extracting [22:38] Well we could compare sha256 of the franz executalble [22:38] lasersaber, share screen while booting is not possible I believe. [22:38] HexaChop, do u have a smartphone? [22:38] SierraKomodo, b699e162ee1bcb6a1b24a05d31a5f154b61681ae513e7fed59cc2a07cfa4b78f Franz [22:38] lasersaber, you won't believe this but no, it broke, sadly. [22:39] lasersaber I do have a tablet without a camera. [22:39] lol [22:39] ok [22:39] basedmars: Well, that's definitely not the same for the Franz file itself [22:39] Hmm. Is there a version file in the franz directory SierraKomodo ? If so what is the version. Mine is 1.3.1 [22:40] HexaChop, no other device with a camera around? [22:40] lasersaber not really [22:40] basedmars: 1.3.1. The archive finished redownloading, I'll re-extract it [22:41] lasersaber, I could however take a photo of the booting screen, I don't like calling random ppl for security reasons, to be honest. [22:41] basedmars: Out of curiousity, do you have the 32-bit or 64-bit version [22:41] HexaChop, i was going to say to use www.appear.in :-/ [22:42] forgot about them. I have 64 bit version one SierraKomodo [22:42] lasersaber, + it's midnight [22:42] Hey guys! [22:42] basedmars: Well, 64-bit's what I told it to download, but the archive itself that the website gave me is 'Franz-linux-ia32-4.0.4' [22:42] I'm looking for something like quicktime recording on linux. Any ideas? [22:43] Which might be my issue [22:43] lasersaber, I can describe how my boot screen looks like... [22:43] royal_screwup21, http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Linux_software_equivalent_to_Windows_software [22:43] Yes, i suspect that could be it. Let me try grab the link [22:44] HexaChop, hopefully someone will be able to help you [22:44] lasersaber I hope you are not too offended that I rather not love-chat? [22:44] live* [22:44] lasersaber live* LOL [22:44] lol [22:44] lasersaber lol it's not there! [22:44] SierraKomodo, this github page will sort you up https://github.com/meetfranz/franz-app/releases [22:45] just need to see what is happening, no need to video chat or even show your face etc [22:45] lasersaber, would you like to continiue to solve my issue? [22:46] I am upgrading to 16.04, want to use btrfs for /home partition on SATA harddisk, is it safe ? [22:46] royal_screwup21, ok [22:46] royal_screwup21: What do you use quicktime recording for? [22:46] Jordinary: I basically want to make a youtube video [22:46] HexaChop: looks like you made some progress and actually got a OS to install to hard disk, good job. [22:47] plus, I haven't used anything like quicktime bfore, so I want to tryout something new [22:47] tatertots, thank you, mate :) [22:47] royal_screwup21: So you want a video editor, correct? [22:47] HexaChop, i would describe your issue again to the channel in case others missed it [22:47] royal_screwup21 There is also openshot video editor. [22:47] lasersaber do you what is the issu enow yourselfl mate? [22:47] Jordinary: Basically, yeah [22:48] btrfs is generally safe papabose . However ext4 is tried and tested filesystem and highly stable. [22:48] Nice slip up royal_screwup21, you meant Jordan_U :) === Jordinary is now known as Jordy [22:49] Jordan_U aw, sorry :P [22:49] royal_screwup21, I use openshot for making my music videos (although not many are out to be seen as I took most down:)) [22:49] royal_screwup21: http://askubuntu.com/questions/5911/video-editing-software-options [22:49] at this point i forgot lol [22:49] basedmars: Thanks! I want to try ZFS and btrfs, may be on a external hardrive then! [22:49] lasersaber, just to remind you, I would like to ask you to re-post it on the channel, would be highly appreciated, mate, I need to fix boot loading screen. [22:50] thanks Speiros! [22:50] lasersaber (it is midnight, my brain is malfunctioning, I was refering to tatertots...) [22:50] sorry, bbl [22:50] royal_screwup21, np mate. It has less glitches than pitivi, but remember to save each step of the way. [22:51] Speiros, could you re-post my issue, mate? [22:51] I'm not sure what could have possibly gone wrong, but I'm on a server here where /etc/apt/sources.list *does not exist*. Is there any other fix than just looking for the file on another pc and copying it over? [22:51] HexaChop, Okay. [22:51] Speiros, thanks a huge bunch. :) [22:52] Timvde: I'm wondering what other critical files might be missing. Please pastebin the output of "lsb_release -a". [22:52] Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23767255/ [22:52] I typed in sudo apt update and I got this shit: [22:53] royal_screwup21, no swearing, please, mate. [22:53] royal_screwup21: don't swear please [22:53] ikonia and ioria, are you sisters or something? :D [22:53] (Code: 0) There was an error with TheP(aste)B.in! [22:53] Hexa Chop (one word) has just uploaded Ubuntu 16.4, which are on the same computer as his windows 10. He has them on separate drives, and they worked well. When swapping, he plugged in some other hardware, and since unplugging it, has been left with a blank purple screen on load up. [22:53] HexaChop, Is that about right? [22:54] royal_screwup21, It looks like you've put a command on there using Pastebin. [22:54] royal_screwup21, Rather, using the words "pastebin" somehow. [22:54] Speiros, yeah, you could say except I am getting loading balls without any logo and getting purple strip and the background is black (situation changed, mate, but good enough. Thanks! :)) [22:55] Well, guess it's time to ask again. Got a 32-bit EFI issue. Can only boot via boot stick -> grub menu. Have installed grub-efi-ia32 and all, but no dice. Boot goes past EFI boot and straight to legacy/BIOS, hits grub-rescue because i386-pc is not present (i386-efi is, but can't boot through it). efibootmgr -v shows some odd structures I would not expect, namely a whole lot of periods. Any ideas on what causes the periods, o [22:56] https://thepasteb.in/p/NxhVD2gg22YiN [22:56] I typed in sudo apt update and I got this^ [22:56] what does it mean? [22:56] Speiros, I got invalid core dump error... [22:57] Speiros, what is going on? [22:57] (Oddly, the log shows my previous comment truncated, but the client here does not. Is that a log quirk, or are you all seeing a truncated message as well?) [22:57] royal_screwup21: do you have any other program running that uses the ubuntu repos? [22:58] royal_screwup21: like software center or the updater etc [22:58] Jordan_U: I... Can't believe this. I used my root powers to grep .bash_history and .zsh_history files, and a (former, luckily) admin actually executed "sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list" O.o [22:58] royal_screwup21: I think Ubuntu Updater is running, it holds the lock on the sources list [22:58] k1l: Well I think I accidentally downloaded a software twice [22:58] Jordan_U: Looking through his other history now to see if there are other places where he screwed up. [22:59] k1l: should I reboot? [22:59] OK, going to bed, everyone, cya tomorrow, I hope to fix this issue on the 3rd day of troubleshooting... [22:59] royal_screwup21: Hint: " is another process using it? " .. make sure no other instance of a package manager is currently open . [22:59] royal_screwup21: no. that error you showed means: there is another program runnin which blocks the usage of the package system to not make a mess when 2 programs change things there. [22:59] royal_screwup21: its one at a time, for the package system. [22:59] HexaChop, I don't know about core dumps. [23:00] k1l: So what should I do now? [23:00] royal_screwup21: do you have any other programs running like software center, updater, or other apt processes? [23:00] oh lol I tried running the command again, and it worked [23:01] Gamemako: Your message was truncated at ", o". [23:03] Jordan_U: Thank you, wasn't sure since Pidgin seems to assume the whole message went through. Used to old mIRC which stopped me from typing at the correct point. [23:04] Gamemako: you could use hexchat, it's more like mirc, and it auto wraps your messages so they dont get cut off. [23:05] guys, what's the tl;dr of the significance of a DE? [23:05] I used UEFI, but installer failed to download GRUB2, and crashed. [23:06] royal_screwup21, What is tl;dr? [23:06] royal_screwup21: service. [23:07] Speiros: too long; didn't read -- he is requesting a short version or gist answer [23:07] Gamemako, Ah, thanks:) [23:08] http://imgbox.com/MRjv6r0d [23:09] royal_screwup21: DE: desktop environment [23:10] royal_screwup21: the applications, principally GUI applications, which make up as a whole what satisfies your "desktop" paradigm [23:12] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_metaphor [23:12] This is weird. I've been up for over 24 hours now, and I'm not tired. I hope I sleep well tonight (it's 10am here) [23:12] 24 isn't too extreme [23:13] reisio, I go back to work next week, so I need to get a routine going. I'm concerned about that. [23:13] I just typed in df -h and I see a bunch of words with their respective parameters. What are the most important things I should know? [23:13] it might be worthwhile to take a little nap in the afternoon, though, so you can be tired for ordinary sleepy time in the evening, instead of your body forcing you to sleep very early and you waking up in the middle of tomorrow night [23:13] Speiros: exactly [23:13] A true 24 hour ubuntu support there Speiros . However I recommend sleep mate [23:14] royal_screwup21: on the right, 'Mounted on', '/' is the most important [23:14] royal_screwup21: and possibly /home, if you have a separate /home [23:14] I did that yesterday...or whatever it's called before now, and slept for about 4-6 hours, which isn't bad. [23:14] royal_screwup21: then look at the 'Avail' (available) column [23:14] basedmars, lol so it seems man:) [23:15] thanks reisio! [23:16] It was 24 about 6am, so probably 28 now. I'll have another cuppa tea and see what happens. In the words of Roger Daltrey, "at least I'll get my washing done". [23:16] reisio what's the difference between /dev/sda6 and /dev/sda1 [23:16] Speiros: down a cup of tea in the afternoon and take a nap with a timer [23:16] Hello, I recently installed KDE Plasma to see how I liked it, which I decided I did not. After removing it, occasionally when Ubuntu Starts up, Unity is themed like KDE, whited out and with KDE style icons. When it does this, a message pops up about an error in /usr/lib/unity-settings-daemon/unity-settings-daemon. Does anyone have any ideas? [23:16] Speiros: then if your body gets tired as it should, you will be able to put off sleeping till 9 or 10pm when it'll be more convenient [23:16] the former has a higher space availability, if that helps [23:17] royal_screwup21, They are your partitions mate. [23:17] royal_screwup21: sda represents the first storage device, the numbers represent partitions on that device [23:17] reisio Yeah, hopefully. [23:17] tmpf --> temporary files? [23:17] royal_screwup21: if they don't have FS labels, you can't really know their contents/purpose without looking at their mount points & examining their data, or /etc/fstab might say [23:17] royal_screwup21: tmpfs? [23:18] yeah I see tmpfs too under "filesystem" [23:18] royal_screwup21: that's a particular type of filesystem, probably for your /dev [23:18] or, rather for /run or /media [23:18] whoops [23:20] the_count: Maybe: sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth ; sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm ' . [23:21] so [23:22] does anyone have suggestions for a file tagging software? [23:22] Hi all! [23:22] experience with maipu switch? [23:22] Hi khazakar [23:22] Bashing-om: I've done the first one there already. Is there any way to know if reconfiguring lightdm worked, besides waiting it out [23:22] Something that I can use to change flac tags in batch [23:23] reisio is there a command that will tell me how much overall space I have left? [23:23] I have a little problem with my Ubuntu 16.04 - I cannot sign file using gpg,It tells me that I don't have private key,but I generated it using password and keys app. [23:23] royal_screwup21: yes, but it'll depend on how your system is setup [23:24] shoot the command [23:24] royal_screwup21: "df -h" [23:24] royal_screwup21: do you have a separate /home partition? [23:24] reisio um, nope === richard is now known as Guest3565 [23:24] theNope. seeing is what is is all that ine can do ,, now if still with issues run the above again and add ' sudo update-initramfs -u ' to rebuild the kernel image . [23:25] royal_screwup21: df -h | egrep '\/$' | awk '{ print $4 }' [23:25] k1l: I'm not really looking for chunks of informations telling me there's x GB for this partition, y GB for the other, and so on. I basically want something that'll give me a bigger picture [23:25] why is there a 2 year (at least) old bug in thunar that causes it to crash when renaming a file> [23:25] royal_screwup21: i still dont know what your issue is at all. [23:25] reisio Nice! [23:26] What's more,when I use command gpg --list-keys myemailthere,It tells me that I don't have public key,but It's generated using password and keys app,too :D [23:26] royal_screwup21: if you show the output of "df -h" in a pastebin people could tell you what lines to look at so you know for the future [23:27] Hi, my headphones stopped working, and I ruled out a hardware problem (no problem in Windows on same machine). I hadn't changed anything that I know of to cause this. Ubuntu 16.10, Dell XPS 13 9350. The speakers do work. I solved this the other night by changing some pulseaudio settings as per https://askubuntu.com/questions/132440/headphone-jack-not-working. The solution was only temporary as the problem is back, even though [23:27] the settings remain changed per the linked instructions. A user in #pulseaudio suggested it could be a kernel bug. Any advice? [23:27] I have since removed pulseaudio to no avail. [23:28] k1l: I was looking for the amount of space left on my machine. I wanted to know the overall picture, not the space left on partitions [23:28] royal_screwup21: echo $(df -h | egrep '\/$' | awk '{ print $5 }') full [23:28] https://thepasteb.in/p/3lh76OJOzpGc1 [23:29] here's my df -h. What are the important things I should know? [23:29] royal_screwup21: the fourth line, for sda6, is virtually all you will regularly care about [23:29] royal_screwup21: for /, which is your root FS mount point [23:29] exit [23:29] royal_screwup21: since you dont have a seperate /home partition, the line with "mounted on : /" is the line to look at. [23:30] you have 380G left, 8% used (or 100-8=92% free) [23:30] reisio Hmm, awesome! [23:30] royal_screwup21: the udev and tmpfs lines are just virtual and not real partitions. /dev/sda1 is just the efi partition needed for the bootloader. [23:31] more than I have left :p [23:31] k1l: Thanks! [23:36] Well, this was expected. boot-info reports nothing at all for boot information, not even remarking that it has no boot. Time for some aspirin, I think. #ubuntu-blogs === Trystam is now known as Tristam === tommy_ is now known as Guest41542 [23:44] gubernator: hi [23:46] #http://imgbox.com/MRjv6r0d [23:47] I've just upgraded 14.04-->16.04, and my ZFS pools are no longer imported on boot. I can manually do a zpool import, but this isn't wholly useful as my /home partition is on the ZFS... [23:47] papabose: installer? for what? [23:48] reisio: Installer for the OS, it failed to download GRUB for some reason. I reinstalled OS but did not use UEFI this time. That worked. [23:51] Lunar_La1p: is zfsutils-linux package installed? [23:52] k1l: I manually installed it, but I'm now manually removing the old packages, removing the ppa, re-installing the zfsutils-linux package, and seeing if that works. [23:53] (just to ensure no conflicts/problems there) [23:53] Lunar_La1p: yes, maybe the PPA or old packages interfer. since 16.04 got native zfs support now it should just mmount zfs tanks if it sees them [23:59] OK, so, that works mostly. It means that everything happens automatically without me manually loadeing kernel modules etc. However, when zfs goes to mount the relevant pool at /home, it fails because /home already exists. [23:59] Hmm, no, not that it already exists, but htat it is not *empty*.,
