| SemiNus | minimec, I did not upgrade the system | 00:00 |
| gaghiel | figured it out | 00:00 |
| minimec | SemiNus: can you give me the version of the installed php package? like 'dpkg -l php'? | 00:04 |
| piglit | okay stupid qestion i did just install a program called elmer how do i start it ? | 00:04 |
| Bashing-om | !info elmer | 00:04 |
| ubottu | Package elmer does not exist in yakkety | 00:04 |
| SemiNus | minimec, | 00:05 |
| SemiNus | https://dpaste.de/wr9H/raw | 00:05 |
| SemiNus | minimec, I just ran: $ sudo a2dismod php5.6 $ sudo a2enmod php7.0 $ sudo service apache2 restart | 00:06 |
| minimec | SemiNus: Ok. so php is not even installed. | 00:06 |
| SemiNus | however, my phpinfo still shows 5.6 | 00:06 |
| k1l | piglit: start elmer from the dash? | 00:06 |
| SemiNus | minimec, it is - I am developing on this system! | 00:06 |
| SemiNus | minimec, if php was not installed, apache would not be able to serve php files other than as plain text | 00:06 |
| Lavinho | seminus no option | 00:08 |
| SemiNus | Lavinho, what is no option? installing from dvd? | 00:08 |
| Lavinho | no | 00:08 |
| SemiNus | Lavinho, can you boot from USB ? | 00:08 |
| Lavinho | no | 00:08 |
| SemiNus | what does this thing support at all!? | 00:08 |
| SemiNus | network installation then | 00:08 |
| SemiNus | what is the current OS ? | 00:09 |
| Lavinho | windows 10 | 00:09 |
| wendico | hello is there a command to restore default PPAs i have to many repositories added there after the time. Thank you very much | 00:09 |
| === longerstaff13 is now known as LONGERSTAFF13 | ||
| SemiNus | Lavinho, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wubi#Install_Ubuntu | 00:09 |
| minimec | SemiNus: I don't get it. Your result for the php package tells me that the is 'un', which means 'u'nknown,'n'ot-installed. How did you install php? | 00:09 |
| SemiNus | minimec, aptitude install php5.6 | 00:10 |
| SemiNus | and also aptitude install php7.0 | 00:10 |
| k1l | wendico: you use ppa-purge to remove them. you need to do that manually | 00:10 |
| SemiNus | if I remember correctly | 00:10 |
| wendico | thank you k1l | 00:10 |
| minimec | SemiNus: Oh... I see. So you don't have the php meta package installed... | 00:10 |
| SemiNus | also weird - I disabled php5.6 and it still runs according to my phpinfo() | 00:11 |
| SemiNus | $ sudo a2dismod php5.6 | 00:11 |
| SemiNus | $ sudo a2enmod php7.1 | 00:11 |
| SemiNus | $ sudo service apache2 restart | 00:11 |
| SemiNus | erm - 7.0 not 7.1 | 00:11 |
| Lavinho | wubi does not exist | 00:13 |
| SemiNus | on the internet?! | 00:13 |
| SemiNus | Lavinho, https://sourceforge.net/projects/wubi/ | 00:13 |
| minimec | SemiNus: and that php5.6 version is from the ppa? Because the last version of php5 was in 14.04LTS | 00:14 |
| SemiNus | yep, from the ppa | 00:14 |
| SemiNus | should I remove it entirely? | 00:14 |
| SemiNus | I believe there was a reason why I needed it | 00:14 |
| SemiNus | maybe sugarcrm | 00:14 |
| k1l | Lavinho: wubi is dead. dont use that | 00:14 |
| * wedgie waves hand. You are not interested in Wubi. Move along | 00:14 | |
| k1l | SemiNus: dont suggest using wubi. its dead. | 00:15 |
| SemiNus | what shall he do otherwise? no cd/dvd drive and he cannot boot from usb | 00:15 |
| k1l | pxe | 00:15 |
| k1l | but i doubt Lavinho doesnt have cd/dvd drive and it doesnt boot from usb. | 00:16 |
| minimec | SemiNus: As you cannot remove the ppa with 'ppa-purge', I would remove it with 'sudo apt purge php5.6', then 'sudo apt autoremove'. The you can delete the related files of the ppa in /etc/apt/sourced.list.d | 00:16 |
| Lavinho | no | 00:16 |
| SemiNus | minimec, ok, wanted to avoid that, but I uninstall php5.6 | 00:17 |
| minimec | SemiNus: Well 'ppa-purge' would have done the same... | 00:18 |
| k1l | Lavinho: you laptop does boot from usb | 00:19 |
| SemiNus | omg | 00:19 |
| SemiNus | minimec, I uninstalled php5.6 (even purged it!) | 00:20 |
| SemiNus | I enabled php 7.0 | 00:20 |
| SemiNus | restarted(!) apache | 00:20 |
| SemiNus | and the phpinfo() tells me I was using php5.6 | 00:20 |
| SemiNus | I can prove it with screenshots if you don't believe me | 00:20 |
| SemiNus | the title of the php info says: | 00:21 |
| SemiNus | PHP Version 5.6.26-2+deb.sury.org~xenial+1 | 00:21 |
| minimec | SemiNus: did you also 'sudo apt autoremove'? | 00:21 |
| SemiNus | nope | 00:22 |
| SemiNus | apt or apt-get ? | 00:22 |
| minimec | SemiNus: both will work. 'autoremove' should remove old 5.6 dependencies... | 00:22 |
| SemiNus | thank you | 00:22 |
| k1l | Lavinho: seems like its a laptop with 32bit uefi. that is a pain | 00:22 |
| SemiNus | minimec, that wants to remove my kernel images! | 00:23 |
| wendico | enough for today, good night all :) | 00:23 |
| SemiNus | minimec, https://dpaste.de/qNig/raw | 00:23 |
| minimec | SemiNus: Yeah. It might remove some old obsolete kernel images. | 00:23 |
| SemiNus | there is no php package anyway ;/ | 00:24 |
| k1l | Lavinho: see this on how to make a usb pendrive that works with that 32bit uefi on that laptop: http://askubuntu.com/questions/684041/ubuntu-debian-on-a-lenovo-ideapad-100s-linux-has-issues-with-this-laptop | 00:24 |
| minimec | SemiNus: I see that. So maybe do 'sudo apt install --reinstall php7.0' | 00:25 |
| SemiNus | minimec, there are still many php5.6* related packages installed | 00:25 |
| SemiNus | why does aptitude purge php5.6* not work? | 00:25 |
| SemiNus | oh, apt-get can do this | 00:26 |
| SemiNus | perfect | 00:26 |
| minimec | SemiNus: I don't like these '*' remove command personally, but yes. | 00:26 |
| SemiNus | I am in trouble | 00:27 |

| === Spontex is now known as Guest79888 | ||
| SemiNus | DAMN | 00:28 |
| k1l | look at dmesg | 00:28 |
| SemiNus | my whole hard drive is not writeable any more | 00:28 |
| SemiNus | I cannot do *anything* | 00:29 |
| SemiNus | all my files are gone | 00:29 |
| SemiNus | what the !!!!! | 00:29 |
| k1l | this sounds like a hardware issue, tbh | 00:29 |
| k1l | look at dmesg what happend | 00:29 |
| SemiNus | https://dpaste.de/KNZQ/raw | 00:30 |
| SemiNus | why did this happen just now?! | 00:31 |
| k1l | external drive? | 00:31 |
| SemiNus | I have an SD card plugged in, but not mounted | 00:32 |
| Lavinho | no | 00:32 |
| SemiNus | the hard drive I am working on is the normal one (the internal one) | 00:32 |
| k1l | is that drive an external drive? | 00:32 |
| SemiNus | no | 00:32 |
| SemiNus | internal | 00:32 |
| Lavinho | internal | 00:32 |
| Lavinho | external no | 00:32 |
| SemiNus | k1l, you are talking to me, right? | 00:32 |
| Lavinho | no boot external | 00:32 |
| Lavinho | right | 00:32 |
| k1l | SemiNus: yes :) this error looks like a hardware issue. could be loose cable, or power supply issue or broken disk. | 00:33 |
| k1l | SemiNus: its possible that his error only happens under load. | 00:33 |
| SemiNus | k1l, unfortunately I cannot reboot right now, as I have 8 SSH connections running | 00:34 |
| k1l | Lavinho: look at the askubuntu link. it explaines how you can make the usb work to boot | 00:34 |
| SemiNus | and they still perform operations... but I will reboot a little later when the SSH sessions are finished | 00:34 |
| Lavinho | post link | 00:34 |
| k1l | SemiNus: keep in mind, that they can break too since they cant write anything to the drive now. | 00:34 |
| k1l | Lavinho: scroll up | 00:35 |
| SemiNus | k1l, that would be the moment to jump... | 00:35 |
| SemiNus | k1l, the sessions run since this morning and are 90% done | 00:35 |
| minimec | SemiNus: Well if your harddrive is read only, it is not sure that the open programs still running corerctly... | 00:35 |
| Lostfile | why do you have 8 conncetions do you have 8 users using it or jno | 00:35 |
| SemiNus | Lostfile, I am performing a task images (resizing, sharpening, face-detection, etc.) | 00:36 |
| Lostfile | oh | 00:36 |
| SemiNus | and in order to use the maximum resources, I opened 1 session per CPU | 00:36 |
| SemiNus | to get the most out of the server | 00:36 |
| SemiNus | my provider hates me already... ^.^ | 00:36 |
| wedgie | sounds like you need screen or tmux | 00:37 |
| Lostfile | i has that and it helped me alot | 00:37 |
| SemiNus | what's that? | 00:37 |
| Lostfile | its like screen | 00:37 |
| Lostfile | sort of | 00:37 |
| wedgie | SemiNus: allows you to run multiple shell sessions over a single connection | 00:38 |
| Lostfile | that to | 00:38 |
| wedgie | SemiNus: google tmux. It'll change your life | 00:38 |
| SemiNus | ah, I remember... the was something to put a process in the background | 00:38 |
| * SemiNus is googling | 00:38 | |
| SemiNus | weird that google + chat still work | 00:38 |
| SemiNus | maybe they write to the RAM | 00:39 |
| Lostfile | i think you could use a app i have in mind but your using a ssh connection right | 00:39 |
| === LONGERSTAFF13 is now known as longerstaff13 | ||
| SemiNus | Lostfile, what app? ssh is perfect | 00:40 |
| Lostfile | is sort of somthing you run on your desktop i for get the name of it | 00:41 |
| SemiNus | gimp? ;) | 00:42 |
| Lostfile | now i remember it was Terminator | 00:42 |
| * SemiNus googles it up | 00:42 | |
| Lostfile | gimp no thats a image thing like photo shop | 00:42 |
| Lostfile | :] | 00:43 |
| SemiNus | I am doing graphic editing in a shell actually | 00:43 |
| Lostfile | oh | 00:43 |
| SemiNus | Lostfile, gimp -b -i -d -f | 00:43 |
| Lostfile | cool | 00:43 |
| SemiNus | batchmode, no GUI, don't load data, no fonts | 00:43 |
| SemiNus | and then batchscripts... | 00:43 |
| SemiNus | handcoded stuff, performing all kind of cool things | 00:44 |
| SemiNus | I am just coding an eye-detection | 00:44 |
| SemiNus | however, I lack many other skills | 00:44 |
| Lostfile | well your better then me | 00:45 |
| SemiNus | by the way: there is also something called gimp-console | 00:45 |
| SemiNus | that comes along with gimp, and is a pure command line thing | 00:45 |
| Lostfile | all i can do is make very basic web sites and a few simple scripts | 00:46 |
| SemiNus | Lostfile, I am sure you can do many things that I can't do | 00:46 |
| SemiNus | look, I am not even able to correct my php version | 00:46 |
| durka42 | systemd troubles: I disabled a service (sudo systemctl disable avahi-daemon), but somehow it started up again (I guess it was activated by socket?). How can I *really* disable it? | 00:46 |
| SemiNus | which I installed from a private PPA in a moment of weakness which I totally forgot about | 00:46 |
| SemiNus | so shame on me ;) | 00:46 |
| Lostfile | yeah be careful with host repos my firend | 00:47 |
| Lostfile | friend | 00:47 |
| Lostfile | those i mean lol | 00:47 |
| wedgie | durka42: likely something else depends on it and is causing it to start | 00:47 |
| wedgie | in which case masking it entirely might break things you don't expect | 00:48 |
| durka42 | is there a way to query that? | 00:48 |
| w9qbj | SkypeForLinux worked on 14.04, tried it today on a new load of 16.04 - something like "Does not work with your software", What now? | 00:49 |
| w9qbj | Any workaround or fixes? | 00:49 |
| durka42 | the security scan is flagging avahi-daemon, so "you can't turn it off" is not an answer :) | 00:50 |
| === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 | ||
| SemiNus | brb, rebooting now | 00:51 |
| tatertots | w9qbj: "skype - client for Skype VOIP and instant messaging service" is in the ubuntu repositories | 00:51 |
| wedgie | durka42: well, you can use ''systemctl mask <service>'' to well and truly keep it from starting | 00:51 |
| === xrandr_ is now known as xrandr_laptop | ||
| durka42 | I see that cups-browsed.service has the line Wants=avahi-daemon.service | 00:51 |
| wedgie | durka42: but again, be prepared for things to break if they depend on it | 00:51 |
| durka42 | is that what I'm looking for or is there another way for something to depend on it? | 00:51 |
| Lostfile | i use Ring its like skype but its p2p | 00:52 |
| Lostfile | or discord | 00:52 |
| wedgie | durka42: probably that. I don't see a way to ask "What depends on service X" but you can do systemctl list-dependencies <service> to see what it depends on | 00:52 |
| w9qbj | tatertots, thanks, that one did work. | 00:55 |
| durka42 | well I've apt-get removed avahi-daemon now :) | 00:56 |
| wedgie | lol, that's another option | 00:56 |
| durka42 | this is a server, I don't need this kind of thing | 00:57 |
| wedgie | but in the general case "mask" as opposed as opposed to "disable" will prevent a service from starting no matter if something else depends on it | 00:58 |
| durka42 | yeah | 00:58 |
| durka42 | well, cups-browsed still depends on avahi-daemon yet it doesn't complain if I start it | 00:58 |
| durka42 | I assume it won't find any printers though :) | 00:59 |
| durka42 | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 00:59 |
| blueking | forgot how to use unrar in cli of ubuntu :/ | 01:01 |
| wedgie | blueking: unrar e something.rar | 01:01 |
| wedgie | (e for extract) | 01:01 |
| blueking | remember I used flag -xvf alot before ? | 01:01 |
| wedgie | blueking: that would be tar | 01:02 |
| k1l | that is not unrar | 01:02 |
| blueking | ah that yea | 01:02 |
| hospitalcolt | Does anyone else have complaints about the last firefox update? | 01:02 |
| blueking | more than 20 years since I used it :) | 01:02 |
| k1l | hospitalcolt: "that complains"? | 01:02 |
| hospitalcolt | k1l: engine ded | 01:03 |
| k1l | hospitalcolt: if its "my addon doesnt work", well, that is a common issue | 01:03 |
| blueking | wish I had 2 x 8 core xeon :/ | 01:04 |
| Lostfile | i use firefox and i have no problems with it | 01:04 |
| krizoek | blueking, what would you need it for? | 01:05 |
| blueking | nothing virtually :P | 01:06 |
| Lostfile | i even have greasemonkey installed let me tell you that is one fun plugin | 01:06 |
| Lostfile | ;] | 01:06 |
| blueking | just boring to wait for unrar BD movie | 01:06 |
| wedgie | blueking: some players (vlc, kodi) can play it still RAR'd up | 01:07 |
| krizoek | ok | 01:07 |
| amitkm9204 | hello guys | 01:07 |
| blueking | wedgie I have ac ryan media player that refuses rar/zip files | 01:08 |
| blueking | kids use | 01:08 |
| amitkm9204 | is there anyone using SDL2 ? | 01:08 |
| Whiskey | Anyone that can help? | 01:13 |
| Whiskey | I try to do apt-get install but it won´t work | 01:13 |
| wedgie | Whiskey: going to need more details than that. What package? What command? What is the error message? | 01:14 |
| Whiskey | it tell me to run "apt-get -f install" but it gives me "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" | 01:14 |
| blueking | command to copy ALL files *.mkv from under directories ? | 01:16 |
| amitkm9204 | "sudo dpkg --configure -a " try this | 01:16 |
| Whiskey | amitkm9204: talk to me? | 01:16 |
| OerHeks | Whiskey, sudo apt ... | 01:16 |
| amitkm9204 | and then try to install your package again | 01:16 |
| blueking | cp -R *.mkv test I tried | 01:16 |
| amitkm9204 | Whickey; yes | 01:17 |
| Whiskey | fucking linux | 01:17 |
| wedgie | blueking: can you be more specific? Want to grab all mkv files recursively, and put them in one location? | 01:17 |
| Whiskey | windows wuld never do that how would i know how to slove that | 01:17 |
| Whiskey | i hate linux when it does this to me | 01:17 |
| blueking | wedgie yes | 01:17 |
| OerHeks | Wickwatch your language please, thanks | 01:17 |
| wedgie | Whiskey: windows would have popped up with "you need elevated privileges to continue" or something like that | 01:17 |
| hggdh | Whiskey: please calm down and mind your language | 01:17 |
| k1l | Whiskey: please stop swearing and show the full output on paste.ubuntu.com and link it here | 01:18 |
| amitkm9204 | Whiskey : mind your language | 01:18 |
| wedgie | blueking: shotp -s globstar; cp -- **/*.mkv /some/destination | 01:18 |
| Whiskey | seems like that did not work | 01:18 |
| wedgie | blueking: err | 01:18 |
| wedgie | shopt | 01:18 |
| k1l | Whiskey: and if you show me the packagemanagement from windows, your comparison would actually make sense :) | 01:18 |
| Whiskey | i think im out of space somewhere | 01:18 |
| amitkm9204 | Whiskey : show your command and the error you are getting | 01:19 |
| Whiskey | i can´t is not in eglish | 01:19 |
| wedgie | Whiskey: we'll manage. | 01:19 |
| amitkm9204 | just provide it. we will manage. | 01:19 |
| wedgie | alternatively, there's probably a channel for your native language | 01:20 |
| Whiskey | anyways windows never have this problems | 01:20 |
| Whiskey | i think thats the only got whit that system | 01:20 |
| Whiskey | http://codepad.org/CYsJ8ew8 | 01:20 |
| blueking | can't just cp *.mkv add -R -r or something to check folders too ? | 01:20 |
| k1l | Whiskey: if you put "LANG=C " in front of the command it will be english | 01:20 |
| k1l | Whiskey: "df -h" | 01:21 |
| wedgie | blueking: -R makes it copy directories and it's contents. | 01:21 |
| hggdh | anyway, it seems /boot is out of space | 01:21 |
| k1l | can you pastebin that? | 01:21 |
| Whiskey | http://codepad.org/3HWIbNee then | 01:22 |
| k1l | Whiskey: now "df -h" please | 01:22 |
| amitkm9204 | Whiskey : what was your installation command? | 01:22 |
| Whiskey | http://codepad.org/9mGIuUkV | 01:22 |
| Whiskey | installation command? | 01:22 |
| wedgie | blueking: if globstar is distasteful for some reason, it can be accomplished with find as well | 01:22 |
| k1l | Whiskey: "ls -al /boot" please now | 01:22 |
| k1l | Whiskey: background: your /boot partition is full of old kernels so it cant install new kernels. (which are outdated anyways) | 01:23 |
| Whiskey | what the **** is that | 01:23 |
| Whiskey | http://codepad.org/6lSvwjeZ <-- looks like duplicates you dont need | 01:24 |
| k1l | Whiskey: yes, that makes you 7 installed kernels | 01:24 |
| Whiskey | awsome :D | 01:24 |
| k1l | Whiskey: "dpkg -l | grep linux-image" please in a pastebin | 01:25 |
| Whiskey | always good to have something to fall back on :D | 01:25 |
| Whiskey | damn you don´t wanne see this i promise | 01:25 |
| Whiskey | it makes me look bad :/ | 01:25 |
| Whiskey | http://codepad.org/LOr5dfdk | 01:25 |
| wedgie | blueking: find . -name "*.mkv" -exec sh -c 'cp -- "$@" /some/destination' _ {} + | 01:25 |
| k1l | Whiskey: what is "uname -a" (you can paste that in here) | 01:26 |
| blueking | if not overwrite existing files on destination ? | 01:26 |
| Whiskey | Linux WhiskeyDB 3.19.0-69-generic #77~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Aug 30 01:29:21 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 01:26 |
| wedgie | blueking: didn't mention that part :P | 01:27 |
| wedgie | blueking: what's your actual goal here? | 01:27 |
| k1l | Whiskey: ok, we will now remove some old packages to make space to let apt work again. then we clean up some mess | 01:27 |
| Whiskey | :) | 01:27 |
| blueking | I failed use -R so there are 400 GB of mkv files at destination no point copy em over again | 01:27 |
| Whiskey | k1l: happy you like to help | 01:27 |
| k1l | Whiskey: "sudo dpkg -r linux-image-3.19.0-58-generic linux-image-3.19.0-64-generic linux-image-3.19.0-65-generic" | 01:28 |
| blueking | but there are some mkv's left in diff folders and too lazy to snoop through all folders | 01:28 |
| wedgie | blueking: well, find . -name "*.mkv" will give you a list to work from | 01:28 |
| Whiskey | k1l: it don´t like that | 01:29 |
| k1l | Whiskey: why? its removing old unused kernels | 01:29 |
| Whiskey | how would i know? | 01:29 |
| Whiskey | http://codepad.org/CysJ4RDn | 01:29 |
| Whiskey | Anyways im stupid so, why don´t the stupid system don´t remove it automatic when it install the new ones thats my big question | 01:30 |
| k1l | Whiskey: ah ok, we need to add the extra packages | 01:30 |
| k1l | "sudo dpkg -r linux-image-3.19.0-58-generic linux-image-3.19.0-64-generic linux-image-3.19.0-65-generic linux-image-extra-3.19.0-58-generic linux-image-extra-3.19.0-64-generic linux-image-extra-3.19.0-65-generic" | 01:30 |
| Whiskey | When it comes to run MySQL and Apache stable Linux is the shit but this makes me crazy windows would never ever do that to me :D | 01:31 |
| k1l | Whiskey: ^ | 01:31 |
| Whiskey | And if some problem would come i would fix it myself :d | 01:31 |
| k1l | Whiskey: apt would have done that automatically, but we can use that when we made some space first | 01:31 |

| agrgaer | quick question, my windows 10 update on an old laptop pretty much bricked it, it goes into a boot loop and doesn't start. can i turn it into an ubuntu 10.1 without a prob? i can acess bios somehow btw | 01:32 |
| Whiskey | i guss it work whit the command untill its done | 01:32 |
| kzet | Is it just me, or does Chrome feel faster than Firefox? | 01:33 |
| k1l | Whiskey: if it work it will take some time to remove that kernels. let it run | 01:33 |
| Whiskey | well thats the problem i don´t think it did | 01:33 |
| k1l | kzet: possible. there is chromium even in the repos | 01:33 |
| Whiskey | is it possible to kill it and restart the process? | 01:33 |
| agrgaer | kzet- firefox still better imo | 01:34 |
| agrgaer | feels safer | 01:34 |
| kzet | agrgaer: Yeah, no, I get that | 01:34 |
| k1l | Whiskey: please show what you see. if you see a new prompt its finished. it will remove kernels and undo the modules. that may take some time | 01:34 |
| kzet | agrgaer: I just get furious when things feel slow. :/ | 01:34 |
| Whiskey | i don´t see anything i did alt z | 01:34 |

| Whiskey | i think that | 01:37 |

| Whiskey | http://codepad.org/gBxopO9X | 01:40 |
| hanshenrik | agrgaer, also, why 10.1? you'd probably want 16.04 | 01:40 |
| k1l | Whiskey: ok, that made some space on /boot, now run "sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade" | 01:41 |
| k1l | Whiskey: when that is done we look to the general issue with your kernel base | 01:41 |
| agrgaer | hanshenrik: just get it usable i already have a back up, also 10.1 because it was listed as compatible on dell support and i don;t want to brick it again. just need something for younger sublings to browse on | 01:41 |
| Whiskey | k1l: then it tells me to run apt-get -f install | 01:42 |
| Whiskey | again | 01:42 |
| k1l | Whiskey: do it | 01:42 |

| hanshenrik | agrgaer, i'd recommend you try Xubuntu 16.04 - and in the unlikely event it doesn't work, 10.1 - but installing 16.04 isn't going to brick it so bad that you can't install 10.1 on it later, anyway | 01:44 |

| k1l | Whiskey: ok now please look at here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Kernel.2FSupport.A14.04.x_Ubuntu_Kernel_Support | 01:46 |
| hanshenrik | agrgaer, and no Wubi dual boot, do a proper grub install - if you don't need dual boot, outright delete the whole windows partition while you're at it | 01:47 |
| clundquist | I was expecting 16.04.2 to have the 4.8 kernel. apt-get update / apt-get upgrade / apt-get dist-upgrade didn't seem to find them. Were they held back from the release? | 01:47 |
| k1l | Whiskey: your 3,19 kernel is out of support. you need to decide if you want to go for the original 3.13 kernel or the 4.4 kernel base. | 01:47 |
| kerwin | I am looking to replace my hardware and want to get a very nice machine.... Does anyone have any idea how good the dell XPS 15 is for running Linux or even a System 76machine is ??? | 01:47 |
| Whiskey | wtf | 01:48 |
| Whiskey | What is the diffrence between them? | 01:48 |
| xangua | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuPre-installed kerwin | 01:48 |
| k1l | Whiskey: the 4.4 is the newer one. | 01:48 |
| Whiskey | k1l: i do get that but you also talk about 3.13 | 01:49 |
| agrgaer | hanshenrik, yup. windows partition would be f-ed anyway lol | 01:49 |
| kerwin | thanks xangua | 01:49 |
| Whiskey | i have support untill 2019 so i should be fine :d | 01:50 |
| Whiskey | i have 14.03 | 01:50 |
| Whiskey | i have 14.04 | 01:50 |
| k1l | Whiskey: 14.04 came originally with 3.13 kernel. but you can get a new kernel from the new ubuntu release. like shown in the picture. but the new kernel got limited time frame of support. so you are now on a deadend and need to decide to either fall back the original 3.13 or the 4.4 | 01:51 |
| Bashing-om | clundquist: Nope: sysop@x1604:~$ lsb_release -a >> Description:Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS >> 4.4.0-62-generic ; on standard install . | 01:51 |
| k1l | Whiskey: not the intermediate kernel. | 01:51 |
| Whiskey | will it do any diffrence on the system? | 01:51 |
| Whiskey | i mean this year the new lts version should come and just update to it i guss, it should be possible ? | 01:52 |
| clundquist | Bashing-om: Yeah, that's what I got too. I read some news a while back saying it would pull in 4.8 | 01:52 |
| Whiskey | in the terminal i mean | 01:52 |
| k1l | Whiskey: 3.13 got 5 years support. and 4.4 got support to the end of the ubuntu 14.04 life. all inbetween is canceld as you see in the picture | 01:52 |
| clundquist | I guess I'll install the yakkety kernel packages | 01:52 |
| k1l | Whiskey: i suggest to try the 4.4 kernel. since it has at least the same support as you now have with 3.19 | 01:52 |
| Whiskey | k1l: what is the problem whit those linux system is so damn complicated | 01:53 |
| k1l | Whiskey: and yes you can upgrade to ubuntu 16.04 on terminal to that. | 01:53 |
| clundquist | https://fossbytes.com/ubuntu-16-04-2-second-point-release-date/ was the article mentioning the 4.8 kernel | 01:53 |
| Whiskey | I used LTS as i know it has support alot of years forwared | 01:53 |
| Whiskey | Should it not fix this for me automatic untill the end of the system whit is in the "middle" of 2019 | 01:53 |
| k1l | Whiskey: yet it does have support. but not that specific part of it. its just aboiut the linux kernel | 01:53 |
| Bashing-om | clundquist: I do not know that HWE is available yet for xenial . IF and when it is then the later kernels will be available . | 01:53 |
| k1l | Whiskey: if you would be using the 3.13 kernel. then yes. but you installed the 3.19 kernel. | 01:54 |
| Whiskey | k1l: i have no clue how tha can happen | 01:54 |
| Whiskey | "that | 01:54 |
| k1l | Whiskey: the 3.19 is preinstalled when you install the 14.04.3 image | 01:54 |
| Whiskey | what do you think i should do | 01:55 |
| Whiskey | as you seems to know what you talk about | 01:55 |
| k1l | that is because maybe hardware build after the 14.04 release might new a newer kernel to work. so a 14.04 with 3.13 kernel might not work. | 01:55 |
| Bashing-om | !hwe | clundquist | 01:56 |
| ubottu | clundquist: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 01:56 |
| k1l | Whiskey: i suggest to change up to the 4.4 kernel. which is named 14.04.5. its like the 5. servicepack from 14.04 | 01:56 |
| Whiskey | if i update to the 16.04 | 01:56 |
| Tynach | Hi, how do I force aptitude/synaptic (or whichever is able) to remove a package before installing other packages, to fix broken packages? One package that's partially installed is trying to overwrite a file from another package, but nothing depends on that other package, so I want to simply remove it first before finishing the install of the broken package. However, whenever I simply mark the package I want removed to be removed, and mark | 01:56 |
| Tynach | the package to be fixed as being upgraded/installed, it tries to install the latter before removing the former (which just causes it to error and do nothing). | 01:56 |
| k1l | clundquist: you need to manually change once to the backports track or kernel | 01:56 |
| Whiskey | can that give me any problem whit the programs i running on the server? | 01:56 |
| hanshenrik | Bashing-om, how does clundquist play with Canonical's LivePatch service? | 01:57 |
| k1l | Whiskey: yes, since 16.04 changes the php version and mysql version. | 01:57 |
| Whiskey | what does that has to do whit it | 01:57 |
| Whiskey | as long its allredy installed why just not ignore the new ones? | 01:57 |
| k1l | Whiskey: you asked for 16.04 | 01:57 |
| Whiskey | yes | 01:57 |
| Whiskey | but php and mysql is not preinstalled | 01:58 |
| kk4ewt | Whiskey, cause the newer packages fixed vulnerbilities | 01:58 |
| k1l | the linux kernel i am talking about does not affect php etc. | 01:58 |
| Whiskey | okey lets update it | 01:58 |
| Whiskey | the karnel | 01:58 |
| Bashing-om | hanshenrik: Sorry, I do not understand - rephrase ? | 01:58 |
| k1l | yes. ok. | 01:58 |
| hanshenrik | Bashing-om, read 20 seconds of this https://www.ubuntu.com/server/livepatch | 01:59 |
| k1l | Whiskey: "sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-xenial" this will bring you to the 4.4 kernel. | 01:59 |
| Bashing-om | hanshenrik: reading . | 01:59 |
| k1l | but it will not change you to a 16.04 (just to make clear) | 01:59 |
| Whiskey | require restart? | 01:59 |
| Whiskey | k1l: im not that stupid but thanks :d | 02:00 |
| k1l | Whiskey: yes. to change to a new kernel you need to restart once after the install is complete | 02:00 |
| Whiskey | will the old autoremove or? | 02:00 |
| clundquist | I don't need live patching / ksplice. I just wanted to update a NUC. | 02:00 |
| clundquist | I'll add the backports ppa | 02:01 |
| clundquist | thank you all | 02:01 |
| k1l | Whiskey: no. i would first make the reboot after the install is done. so if there are issue you can fallback to the working kernel. | 02:01 |
| Whiskey | hmm problems | 02:02 |
| k1l | Whiskey: ok. please show | 02:03 |

| === Wulf4 is now known as Wulf | ||
| Bashing-om | puff: If nomodeset works ,, then install a proprietary driver ( nvidia ) . | 02:58 |
| puff | Though it *is* an nvidia card... actually two cards, linked somehow. | 02:58 |
| puff | I.e. two video outs, though currently we're only using one. | 02:58 |
| puff | Installing video drivers when I can't login is a little tricky. | 02:59 |
| puff | I can get in via the virtual terminals, though. | 02:59 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Worth a shot as you can get a TTY ; ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' . | 03:00 |
| puff | Bashing-om: Ah, good. | 03:01 |
| puff | Bashing-om: That I can do, I prefer apt to the GUi stuff. | 03:01 |

| puff | Bashing-om: Upgrade wants to install a whole buncha packages. | 03:02 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Be aware that in 14.04 and newer Nvidia cards .. we have not caught up . I did fall into that . | 03:02 |

| HankMoody | Damnit, okay, I've got two new problems I've stumbled into. 1 Ctrl shortcuts don't work in VLC (which I can probably wait on; I saw in the bug tracker it's supposed to be in the coming updates) and the second one is xscreensaver still coming on even when VLC is open and running (I've fixed it before in Debian, just can't remember how) | 03:05 |
| Bashing-om | puff: What release did you install ? 16.04+ does have nouveau driver support for most of the newer Nvidia cards . | 03:05 |
| puff | 16.04 LTS | 03:07 |
| HankMoody | I should also state that in the first I tried the two "accepted" fixes from the forums and they didn't seem to work; and on the second, yes the "disable screensaver" option is clicked in VLC. I'll download caffeine if need be, just was seeing if there was a more obscure setting somewhere. | 03:07 |
| puff | I think it's 16.04.1 LTS | 03:07 |
| puff | Bashing-om: It's slogging through the apt-get upgrade (been for awhile) now. | 03:08 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Well , should work out of the box - try the "autoinstall" anyway and we see what works out . | 03:09 |
| puff | Bashing-om: autoinstall? | 03:09 |
| puff | Ah, apt-get autoinstall. | 03:09 |
| puff | Bashing-om: This problem happened because of one of the ubuntu updates, to begin with. | 03:10 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Well that too can happen when an update breaks a proprietary driver . we get to look'n when the update/upgrade completes . | 03:11 |
| puff | I need to build my aptwiki idea. | 03:12 |
| puff | Basic idea is to make a wiki/forum where the page structure is defined by the repos, and has an apt-ish command line interface (or eventually build it into the GUis too) and let users, etc annotate packages. | 03:13 |
| puff | With multiple server levels, kinda like maven, i.e. one for your team, then the department, then company-wide, then the public servers, etc. | 03:14 |
| puff | And also factor in your hardware details, so you'd by default see issues specific to your hardware. | 03:14 |
| qmr | Bashing-om: it's using framebuffer and not a text console | 03:17 |
| qmr | why does a new install of ubuntu server not boot to a working VTY? | 03:18 |
| qmr | ...and VTY1 is yellow | 03:18 |
| puff | Bashing-om: Hm, saw several clusters of lines about nvidia scroll up in the upgrade. | 03:18 |
| Bashing-om | puff: What ever anyone can do to help in trouble shooting procedures us great . We were working on such an effort .. but the prime mover got pulled away . | 03:20 |
| puff | Hm, "Your system has UEFI Secure Boot enabled." | 03:20 |
| puff | Well, I'm a developer, that sorta system is pretty buildable. My only weak point in tackling that I'm not that knowledgable about apt/dpkg internals. | 03:21 |
| puff | It wants me to toggle off UEFI Secure Boot to use third-party drivers. | 03:21 |
| puff | Advisable? | 03:21 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Yeah ,, in some implemetations of EFI you have too disable secure boot . | 03:23 |
| puff | ok | 03:24 |
| Bashing-om | puff: I know of no source for a nvidia driver that is not trusted . | 03:25 |
| puff | Okay, finished the upgrade, should I reboot and do the uefi drivers thing next, or do the ubuntu-drivers autoinstall first, then reboot? | 03:25 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Were me I would reboot with what is and see now what happens ager the software updates have installed . then If still no GUI we look and see what is installed and go from there . | 03:27 |
| Bashing-om | ager/after* | 03:27 |
| puff | Drat, same issue. | 03:30 |
| Worm_in_a_Box | Can I customize lubuntu iso so it will have libre office instead of gnome office? How? | 03:30 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Let's see what is ' sudo lshw -C display ; dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' in a pastebin site . | 03:31 |
| puff | Bashing-om: So, still not great. Question, this machine has nothing critical on it, what are the odds that I'd be better off just installing from scratch? | 03:31 |
| puff | Also, is there a command line tool for doing a pastebin? | 03:32 |
| puff | e.g. sudo lshw -C display | dopastebin.sh | 03:32 |
| puff | How about this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/186371/how-to-submit-a-file-to-paste-ubuntu-com-without-graphical-interface | 03:33 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Won't take long to look .. and try and fix .. I like termbin for a pastee ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia | nc termbin.com 9999 ' . | 03:34 |
| puff | http://termbin.com/0a50 | 03:34 |
| puff | http://termbin.com/3sw7 | 03:35 |
| Bashing-om | puff: still look'n but ouch ' ii bumblebee " . BumbleBee has been depreciated . | 03:36 |
| puff | Ah, yeah, he might have installed that to get the multiple video cards working. I can strip that out? | 03:37 |
| puff | sudo apt-get remove bumblebee? | 03:37 |
| FiveBroDeepBook | .çôêå | 03:37 |
| puff | ok, removing. | 03:40 |
| Bashing-om | puff: And more .. driver conflicts : " ii nvidia-352-updates ; ii nvidia-361 ; ii nvidia-367 : and I do not know what to make of all the " ri libcurand6.5:amd64 ' where these libs are only partitally installed . | 03:40 |
| puff | Whoa, okay... so what's your suggested course of action? Remove them all and then do ubuntu-drivers autoinstall again? | 03:40 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Removong BB depends on how you installed it ! | 03:41 |
| puff | Uh-oh, I did apt remove. | 03:41 |
| puff | Worst case, I can install from scratch. | 03:41 |
| Bashing-om | puff: K . let's run ' sudo apt purge nvidia* ' and now see what is left from a new 'dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia | nc termbin.com 9999 ' . | 03:44 |
| Aurust | Hello | 03:45 |
| puff | Bashing-om: Ah-hah! I hadn't realized I needed to select the xubuntu-session from the login dropdown (the look of the login screen changed, I assumed it had been selected). When I changed to xubuntu-session, it succeeds in logging in via GUI. | 03:46 |
| puff | Bashing-om: Should I still purge nvidia and reinstall? | 03:46 |
| === Trystam is now known as Tristam | ||
| puff | Bashing-om: The other thing I wanted to do with the aptwiki thing, basically have a work-alike command line interface, but prompt the user to enter a short comment about why they're installing the package... and keep track of which packages were consciously installed vs. which were dependencies. | 03:49 |
| Aurust | Can someone help with an ntfsfix issue? | 03:49 |
| puff | Aurust: I'm afraid I'm not familiar with ntfsfix, sorry. | 03:50 |
| Bashing-om | puff: As to a reinstall of the driver ., we must have a clean slate 1st .. as the the wiki you need to find TJ- . all this has been done . | 03:51 |
| Bashing-om | puff: I need to be away for about 20 minutes ., back soonest . | 03:52 |
| puff | Bashing-om: Hm, is TJ a regular here? | 03:52 |
| puff | It's purging. | 03:53 |
| puff | Bashing-om: What do I do after the purge? | 03:53 |
| puff | sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall? | 03:53 |
| Bashing-om | puff: TJ- "was" regular .. but He had to drop out .. ( building a new house ) have not seen him in some time . | 03:54 |
| puff | Okay, so the purge finsihed, thn I did sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall, then restarted. | 03:55 |
| puff | Yeah, that's a challenge. I'm just renovating an old house and it's a serious distraction. | 03:55 |
| ceda_ | On windows I can right click a folder and it says : open with visual code. Can I do the same with ubuntu ? | 03:56 |
| sponix | ceda_: Of course you can, because Windows and Linux are the Exact Same Thing ! | 03:59 |
| bazhang | !behelpful | sponix | 04:01 |
| ubottu | sponix: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. | 04:01 |
| bazhang | try a chat channel for random commentary sponix , NOT here | 04:01 |
| puff | Weird, I shut down fully and then booted, it booted and didn't give me a login screen, went straight into xubuntu, logged in and etc. | 04:04 |
| sponix | puff: I have mine setup to do that all the time | 04:07 |
| sponix | ceda_: If you have Ubuntu related questions please go ahead and ask them in the channel | 04:08 |
| ceda_ | I already did | 04:09 |
| sponix | ceda_: I'm not familiar with "visual code" is that a Coders IDE or something ? | 04:10 |
| clay | henlo | 04:10 |
| ceda_ | The program is irrelevant, I just want to have the option to right click and have open with when I right click | 04:10 |
| ceda_ | but yes | 04:10 |
| ceda_ | it's an IDE | 04:10 |
| ceda_ | I found out how to do it with files, but not folders | 04:11 |
| clay | this is cool. i'm going to leave see y'all later | 04:11 |
| puff | Even weirder, I switched to the virtual terminal to run apt/dpkg and check on the drivers... and it spontaneously rebooted. It came up with the motherboard splash page (American Megatrends) and then said "Power supply surges detected during the previous power on.\nASUS Anti-Surge as trigged to protect system from unstable power supply unit!\nPress F1 to Run SETUP | 04:11 |
| sponix | ceda_: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Studio_Code https://code.visualstudio.com/download | 04:12 |
| ceda_ | You are playing dumb ? | 04:13 |
| sponix | ceda_: MS Visual Studio is likely where the "visual code" option comes from, and it seems that it is available for Linux now. I have Never used it though, so I can swear to how effective it is on Linux | 04:13 |
| ceda_ | I just want to add visual studio code to the context menu | 04:15 |
| ceda_ | It could be notepad++ | 04:15 |
| ceda_ | or any other software | 04:15 |
| ceda_ | this is done on the os | 04:15 |
| ceda_ | Like now when I right click a folder I have to click => open with another application => then select visual studio code | 04:16 |
| puff | Dang, this was a $100+ power supply from newegg, only a year old. | 04:16 |
| ceda_ | I'd like to be able to have "Open with visual studio code " when I right click | 04:16 |
| ceda_ | I'll ask Stackexchange I doubt I'll get anything from here | 04:18 |
| sponix | ceda_: On most file types after you select to Open with a specific application that becomes the default option from that point on | 04:18 |
| sponix | puff: Could ask about that in ##hardware, But I've seen it recommended to turn that feature off because it often has false alarms | 04:21 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Back. Ouch on the aboves .. maybe all those strange "ri libcurand6.5:amd64" conflicting libs ?? . what have we now to work with ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia | nc termbin.com 9999 ' . | 04:29 |
| puff | Yeah, I've been going around and around. I'm reinstalling from scratch now. | 04:31 |
| puff | Also, the thought occurs, we're in a hackerspace in a pretty old building, and he didn't bring a UPS down with his PC, so... | 04:32 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Uh Huh line load is another factor . | 04:33 |
| puff | I like the origami art in the installer. Don't remember that from last time. | 04:34 |
| Antares | С добрым утром страна! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZplYy2dgX8 | 04:42 |
| bazhang | Antares, dont post youtube here | 04:44 |
| puff | Well... okay, the install finished, it prompted me to restart, I restarted, removed the USB ubuntu drive... now I'm at the grub prompt. Now what? | 04:44 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Sorry EFI booting is not in my expereience - but I can hazard to guess that the boot code install defaulted to the USB device rather than the hard drive . | 04:46 |
| puff | Hm... okay, well I can reinstall again. | 04:46 |
| puff | What do I need to do? | 04:46 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Make sure of the hard drive ID ( sudo parted -l ) .. with the install option " something else" one can direct where to install the boot code . | 04:48 |
| puff | Bashing-om: sudo parted -l from the grub prompt? | 04:49 |
| Bashing-om | puff: No, from the liveUSB terminal . | 04:49 |
| puff | Okay, so step one, shut off, reinsert ubuntu live thumbdrive, restart, hit esc/f2 to get the BIOS utility, select boot off the thumb drive. | 04:50 |
| puff | del/f2, actually. | 04:51 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Might try booting the system with the liveUSB plugged in. see if from the liveUSB we can boot the install ( and some one can direct you how to install the boot code to the hard drive ) . | 04:51 |
| puff | I'm not sure what you mean. I'm booted into the Try Ubuntu/Install Ubuntu dialog nwo. you're saying run "Try" and then from inside that run the installer, instead of just directly selecting "Install Ubuntu", like I did last time? | 04:54 |
| Bashing-om | puff: I am the last to give advise on installing and booting a EFI machine . Too many variables that I just do not know . I can accept that all you need - as the systen did install - is to properly install the boot code . | 04:57 |
| puff | Okay, so if I read you right, what you're saying is that, presumably the install set up the main system and etc fine, it just didn't set up the bootloader (grub) correctly. | 04:58 |
| puff | So I need to get help from somebody who knows grub and UEFI. | 04:58 |
| puff | Also, note, when I was upgrading, it said to enter a password for fiddling with UEFI, and later it would prompt me for that same password, to be sure it wasn't some malware. But it never prompted me for the password. | 04:59 |
| puff | Are my first two comments a correct/accurate statement of your position? | 04:59 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Yeah .. I bet if you get the boot code installed all will be fine . ( else re-install from the something else option and direct where to install the boot code ). | 05:00 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Acer laptop ? | 05:01 |
| puff | No, it's a newegg desktop, asus motherboard, american megatrends BIOS. | 05:02 |
| puff | Okay, reinstalled, back to grub bootlaoder. | 05:03 |
| puff | So I guess the problem is that grub wasn't set up with a default entry pointing to the new Ubuntu install? | 05:03 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Well, No idea of where a UEFI password comes into play here . | 05:04 |
| puff | It's not prompting me for a UEFI password. I was just noting that as an odd thing that came into play. | 05:05 |
| Bashing-om | puff: As I say, I do not know enough about EFI to be constructive . | 05:07 |
| puff | Cool. Many, many thanks for your help so far. | 05:07 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Well . not much help as you have a non-booting machine :( | 05:08 |
| puff | Yeah, well, you pays your money and you takes your chances. | 05:12 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Iffen ya want .. we can try and boot this system - but will be a learing thing for me , may take some time . | 05:16 |
| puff | Bashing-om: It's cool, I think I'm done for the night. I'm going to research this. | 05:18 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Oh kay .. I am always open to stepping up on this learning curve :) | 05:19 |
| HankMoody | Damnit, okay, I've got two new problems I've stumbled into. 1 - Ctrl shortcuts don't work in VLC - which I can probably wait on; I saw in the bug tracker it's supposed to be in the coming updates. I tried the two workarounds for it and didn't have any luck. | 05:24 |
| HankMoody | The second one is xscreensaver still coming on even when VLC is open and running (I've fixed it before in Debian, just can't remember how). I've also got caffeine up right now and it's not stopping the screensaver from starting. | 05:24 |
| HankMoody | Also with VLC the "disable screensaver option" IS selected | 05:25 |
| puff | Bashing-om: Again, many thanks. At this point, I fiugre it has to be one of two things, either a) magic bytes on the droive somewhere (I've seen this before) or b) something written in BIOS, aka UEFI. | 05:29 |
| puff | Bashing-om: I'm out of steam for the night, and more importantly my friend is - he got up at 3am today and has to get up at 5am tomorrow. | 05:29 |
| puff | Bashing-om: Going to pack it in. Tomorrow or the day after, I'll use dd to write 0s across the entire physical device of the drive, just to rule that out. | 05:30 |
| puff | Bashing-om: I fully expect that not to fix the problem, but as I've said, I've seen that happen before. | 05:30 |
| HankMoody | Yeah i was gonna say I'd be really surprised if that ended up being the issue. | 05:30 |
| puff | Bashing-om: Guy was trying to reinstall windows, it was having weird problems with the previous windows install. I used an ubuntu live CD to format the disk... problem still persisted. Finally I used dd to write 0s across the entire physical disk. That solved the problem. | 05:31 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Andddd .. to this time there is no set standard for the UEFI specification . everyone does it different . | 05:31 |
| puff | There was some magical part of the drive that ubuntu format and windows installer and etc were ignoring. | 05:32 |
| puff | So I'm going to do that iwth this drive, just to rule that out, but I won't be surprised if it doesn't fix the problem. | 05:32 |
| puff | Again, thanks for all the help. you're a champ. | 05:32 |
| puff | I will check back in later and update you with the outcome. Goodngiht. | 05:33 |
| puff | I'm afk now, don't know what the irc command is to do that. Apparently /afk isn't it. | 05:33 |
| Bashing-om | puff: Can you say (M)aster (B)oot (R)ecord . that resides at sector 0, that is not in the domain of the file systems ?? | 05:33 |
| HankMoody | (slash)away is puff | 05:35 |
| ubuntunewbie | any mysql user here? | 06:19 |
| backbox | hola | 06:21 |
| CobaCoba | Hey | 06:21 |
| backbox | hola | 06:21 |
| ubuntunewbie | hey | 06:21 |
| CobaCoba | I have a questio | 06:21 |
| ubuntunewbie | hola hola | 06:21 |
| backbox | como estan | 06:22 |
| CobaCoba | I recently try to install ubuntu to dual boot with win7 | 06:22 |
| backbox | type and spanish | 06:23 |
| CobaCoba | But i just hit 4 disk partition which is the maximum required partitions | 06:23 |
| backbox | exit | 06:23 |
| CobaCoba | Now i cant make disk partitions for /root | 06:24 |
| CobaCoba | Any solution? | 06:24 |
| ubuntunewbie | i think that is optional? | 06:25 |
| CobaCoba | Fyi : 4 disk partitions are 3 ntfs (win partition) and 1 swap | 06:25 |
| ubuntunewbie | yeah 1st is main 2nd is swap other are ntfs | 06:26 |
| CobaCoba | Is it okay if i put swap in logical memory so i can make /root memory? | 06:26 |
| ubuntunewbie | well i'm also newbie in ubuntu | 06:26 |
| HankMoody | The second one is xscreensaver still coming on even when VLC is open and running (I've fixed it before in Debian, just can't remember how). I've also got caffeine up right now and it's not stopping the screensaver from starting. Also yes the disable screensaver option is selected | 06:27 |
| CobaCoba | If i put swap in primary memory, i cant make /root memory because of maximun requirements | 06:27 |
| ubuntunewbie | what i found when i uninstall windows 7 and install ubuntu is it use higher ram than windows 7 | 06:27 |
| CobaCoba | I dont think that ubuntu use higher ram | 06:27 |
| ubuntunewbie | ubuntu used 87% ram when windows used 33% | 06:28 |
| CobaCoba | Perhapas it depends on apps usage i installed in ubuntu | 06:28 |
| ubuntunewbie | fresh install | 06:28 |
| CobaCoba | Ohh | 06:28 |
| ubuntunewbie | it was desktop | 06:28 |
| CobaCoba | I had installed kali linux and it only took 700mb of 8gb ram. | 06:29 |
| CobaCoba | *it tooks only | 06:29 |

| k1l | Guest66589: the ubuntu inside the vbox cant see the external usb. you need to give the usb-port to the vbox in the vbox settings first. else you need to manage the issue with the windows host. | 09:14 |
| Jonii | I busted my Ubuntu installation by removing... Well, all the programs, including any shell I had | 09:14 |
| Jonii | Can I fix it via live CD? | 09:14 |
| Guest66589 | k1l: I did that Now | 09:15 |
| Guest66589 | http://termbin.com/q1dg | 09:15 |
| Guest66589 | I'm using windows 10 now with + ubuntu iso, in a virtualbox | 09:16 |
| k1l | Guest66589: run sudo parted -l again when the usb-hdd is given to vbox | 09:16 |
| Guest66589 | it has 2 partitions number 1 is start 2048 B size 4096 B name apple | 09:17 |
| Guest66589 | 2 1582MB 1584MB 2458KB it says EFI | 09:18 |
| Guest66589 | did it see it? | 09:18 |
| Guest66589 | or I reboot the virtual box? | 09:18 |
| Guest66589 | or how Can i install with out a cdrom linux in my external h/d to wipe it to put it as a NTFS partition not a fat 32 partition | 09:19 |
| k1l | Guest66589: please attach "| nc termbin.com 9999" to show it | 09:19 |
| k1l | Guest66589: if you cant manage to give the usb hdd to virtualbox you need to fix the issue with #windows or boot a ubuntucd/usb | 09:20 |
| Guest66589 | How do i do that? | 09:20 |
| Guest66589 | ubuntucd? | 09:20 |
| Guest66589 | with /usb? | 09:20 |
| k1l | https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows | 09:21 |
| Guest66589 | the link is http://termbin.com/cpd0 | 09:21 |
| k1l | that still is not the external hdd. so i guess you better ask the #windows guys or real boot the usb | 09:22 |
| Guest66589 | my usb stick is 3 TB though | 09:22 |
| k1l | that is not a usb stick. that is a usb hdd. | 09:23 |
| Guest66589 | that's what I'm trying to install | 09:23 |
| k1l | Guest66589: you are mixing a lot of issues here | 09:23 |
| === sophia is now known as Guest79004 | ||
| Guest66589 | then if you are so advance why don't you guide me completly? | 09:24 |
| anddam | Jonii: how did you remove all the programs? | 09:24 |
| Jonii | anddam, I tried fixing corrupted file system | 09:24 |
| Jonii | And tried to cleverly utilize tip that was intended for ubuntu 14.04 | 09:24 |
| Jonii | But it kinda failed | 09:24 |
| anddam | Jonii: ok but I asked how did you remove the programs, not what was the intended purpose | 09:25 |
| Jonii | I used apt purge | 09:25 |
| Jonii | And as it turns out, the program I removed had basically the entire system as dependencies, it seems | 09:25 |
| anddam | Jonii: good, with what arguments? | 09:25 |
| anddam | purge won't remove unneded dependencies, autoremove will do that | 09:26 |
| anddam | k1l: you just lose a customer | 09:27 |
| k1l | Guest66589: again: if you want to see the usb disk inside the vbox, you need to go to the vbox settings and click on devices, usb, ... to make vbox use that usb for ubuntu inside vbox. as long as you dont do that ubuntu will never see any usb connected to the pc. | 09:27 |
| Jonii | No I meant, whole system had those packages as dependencies | 09:27 |
| === Schlawiner|BNC is now known as Jochen_wvdT | ||
| Jonii | Those were some sound things I think? | 09:27 |
| k1l | anddam: :/ | 09:27 |
| Jonii | alsa-base etc | 09:27 |
| === Guest79004 is now known as sophia_ | ||
| anddam | Jonii: I don't know what you think, if it's alsa it's likely nothing critical | 09:27 |
| anddam | Jonii: if you could clarify better that "those packages" you could get some good advice how to restore things | 09:28 |
| anddam | also yuo could just reinstall the system on top | 09:28 |
| anddam | you* | 09:28 |
| Jonii | anddam: well, I can no longer boot any further than initramfs | 09:28 |
| anddam | I agree that's pretty much broken | 09:28 |
| anddam | I'd avoid the hassle of just reinstall on top | 09:28 |
| anddam | time-saving | 09:28 |
| Jonii | I've chrooted into the old system, but apt gives me "failed to fetch ... temporary failure resolving ..." | 09:29 |
| Jonii | :/ | 09:29 |
| anddam | no network | 09:29 |
| Jonii | Can I fix that? | 09:30 |
| anddam | can you setup the network manually? | 09:30 |
| Jonii | I have network actually | 09:33 |
| Jonii | ping command works. Pinged 8.8.8.8 | 09:34 |

| Jonii | It printed something that doesn't contain errors in it | 09:36 |
| kbob | ok, dig -x bbc.com | 09:36 |
| kbob | or dig x freenode.net | 09:37 |
| Jonii | it hangs? | 09:38 |

| lapide_viridi | Hey, I'm looking for å way to access files on my server in browser, like Google Drive. Any suggestions? | 09:39 |
| anddam | there | 09:39 |
| anddam | you have network connectivity but no DNS server setup | 09:39 |
| lapide_viridi | I already have Syncthing set up for all my machines, but I'd like a web interface too. | 09:40 |
| anddam | lapide_viridi: like google Drive meaning with office features? | 09:40 |
| anddam | office suite | 09:40 |
| Jonii | Now it works! | 09:40 |
| Jonii | Yeah, this all started with my hard drive failing or something? Grub couldn't find filesystem no longer on my disk | 09:41 |
| Jonii | So i fixed that, but some percentage of files on my computer are missing, and fixing that I ended up accidentally deleting programs :( | 09:42 |
| lapide_viridi | anddam, perhaps, if you know some. Just give me a few options, and I can have a closer look | 09:42 |
| lapide_viridi | anddam, primarily I just want to be able to get a file trough the browser, if I need to. More functionality would be a bonus. That is what I meant with drive-ish | 09:43 |

| HankMoody | Anyone know a fix for xscreensaver still coming on even when VLC is open and running (I've fixed it before in Debian, just can't remember how). I've also got caffeine up right now and it's not stopping the screensaver from starting, and yes the disable option is selected in VLC | 09:53 |
| MrOpenSource | @HankMoody I dont use xscreensaver for example just caffeine | 09:59 |
| HankMoody | Hmmm, alright | 10:01 |
| anddam | lapide_viridi: nothing like that, there are simple file browsing scripts but that won't be as structured as what you seem to ask, like having a search feature and all | 10:05 |
| Quality_Beef | hi hi im beef | 10:08 |
| Quality_Beef | hello | 10:09 |
| Jonii | Okay, so, I reinstalled Ubuntu-desktop, but it still throws me to busybox initramfs | 10:09 |
| MonkeyDust | Quality_Beef hi, this is ubuntu support, ask your ubuntu questions here | 10:09 |
| Jonii | And I paid close attention to it this time, and when I type "exit", it tells me "Alert, UUID does not exist" | 10:10 |
| Quality_Beef | lol i remember when i had those problems | 10:10 |
| Jonii | Which seems to be the cause for why boot up process does not work quite right | 10:10 |
| x86- | I just got an amazon vps, ifconfig does not show an IP address for IPV6, modprobe ipv6 does nothing. cat /etc/module I don't see IPV6 | 10:10 |
| x86- | how can I download and install the ipv6 kernel module? | 10:10 |
| anddam | lapide_viridi: ahh, "green" | 10:11 |
| lapide_viridi | anddam, do you have something that comes to mind? | 10:11 |
| k1l | x86-: i suggest you ask aws for that. on vps you cant install kernel module yourself if the host doesnt allow you | 10:11 |
| lapide_viridi | anddam, green? | 10:13 |

| Jonii | Also, I seem to have corrupted kernel image thing... Can I fix that? | 10:39 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: run "sudo update-grub" on terminal in ubuntu | 10:41 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: this should look for other OS installed and put them into grub,too | 10:41 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: Thanks but it does not display anything else even after updating | 10:41 |

| tomreyn | Jonii: what is a "corrupted kernel image thing" and what makes you think you have it? | 10:46 |
| tomreyn | maybe try answering the 2nd question first. | 10:46 |
| Jonii | I can't boot into 4.4.0-62 but I can boot into 4.4.0-59 | 10:46 |
| tomreyn | what happens when you try to boot using 4.4.0-62? | 10:47 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: what does "sudo os-prober" output? | 10:47 |
| Jonii | I go to initramfs and it tells me root device was not found | 10:47 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: I already tried that and it doesn't return any output | 10:47 |
| tomreyn | Jonii: did 4.4.0-62 every boot up properly? | 10:48 |
| tomreyn | *ever | 10:48 |
| Jonii | tomreyn: yes | 10:48 |
| Jonii | But a lot of stuff has happened the past 12 hours | 10:48 |
| anddam | tomreyn: thanks. I got math symbols and the runes, so I figure the terminal is fine | 10:48 |
| Jonii | Well, 14 hours | 10:48 |
| tomreyn | Jonii: what changed between then (when it booted up fine) and now? | 10:48 |
| anddam | tomreyn: it's likely something going on with my remote host locale | 10:49 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: can you show "dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999" | 10:49 |
| tomreyn | anddam: try: env | 10:49 |
| Jonii | My hard drive failed. Grub would enter grub-rescue, telling my disk lacked proper file system. I managed to fix that, but ended up with very slightly corrupted version of my OS. I tried to reinstall affected packages, but because of syntax error, I ended up purging every program on my computer pretty much | 10:49 |
| anddam | tomreyn: looking for? | 10:50 |
| Jonii | I used live CD to recover from that and reinstall desktop, but it only works if i boot into older kernel image | 10:50 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: there could be an issue: it needs to mount the windows partitions to look what OS is inside and since windows doesnt shutdown properly the windows partitions cant be mounted by other OS. | 10:50 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: http://termbin.com/kdgd | 10:50 |
| tomreyn | anddam: anything locale / text + character encoding related, i guess. | 10:50 |
| tomreyn | anddam: also 'locale' | 10:51 |
| erladfafas | tutorials state that steam is in the multiverse of 16.04 | 10:51 |
| erladfafas | but synaptic does not find it | 10:51 |
| erladfafas | what could be the cause? | 10:51 |
| erladfafas | has it been removed? | 10:51 |
| Jonii | tomreyn: obviously that's the short version. I don't really know which details of this journey are important enough to share, but that's the general outline of the past 14h | 10:52 |

| tomreyn | erladfafas: it's there, maybe you haven't enabled... | 10:52 |

| tomreyn | !multiverse | erladfafas | 10:53 |
| ubottu | erladfafas: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. | 10:53 |
| erladfafas | tomreyn, what is there to enable except the sources.list? | 10:53 |
| tomreyn | erladfafas: nothing. you also need to update the packages lists, of course. | 10:53 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: Will do quickly | 10:53 |
| erladfafas | maybe my repos are mixed up | 10:54 |
| erladfafas | I will reset the sources.lst | 10:54 |
| erladfafas | I dont use other repos anyway | 10:54 |
| tomreyn | Jonii: maybe just purge the 4.4.0-62 kernel and reinstall it then. | 10:54 |
| tomreyn | Jonii: actually based on the journey your system went through already, you might want to reinstall instead. but that's your decision to make of course. | 10:55 |
| tomreyn | erladfafas: you can show the output of "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-cache policy" on a pastebin if you would like your APT sources reviewed. | 10:56 |
| miedziak | Hi. I'm struggling with dual graphics. Intel IGP and discreet AMD GPU. The best i found is DRI_PRIME=1 ./executable which force rendering on AMD, but the output doesn't show on my laptop screen. | 10:57 |

| MonkeyDust | Jonii not if you have a seperate /home partition | 10:58 |
| Jonii | I don't | 10:59 |
| tomreyn | Jonii: if you have your /home on a separate partition, you'd only loose the installed packages and their system-wide configurations, not your users' personal files nor the users' configuratiojns (such as arrangement of icons on the deslktop etc.) | 10:59 |
| tomreyn | oh i'm late ;) | 10:59 |
| MonkeyDust | tomreyn :) | 10:59 |
| MonkeyDust | Jonii here's what you do ... backup your personal files, then reinstall and create a separate /home partition | 11:00 |
| tomreyn | Jonii: so you could backup /home to a tar.gz archive on a different disk / usb stick / dvd... | 11:00 |
| tomreyn | oh i'm late #2 | 11:00 |
| MonkeyDust | i'm outta here :) | 11:00 |
| erladfafas | tomreyn, https://paste.ubuntu.com/23972995/ | 11:01 |
| tomreyn | no no keep going | 11:01 |
| Jonii | I guess... | 11:01 |
| tomreyn | erladfafas: looks fine, you should be able to install the steam package this way. | 11:01 |
| Jonii | I dualboot. I seem to recall it's difficult to reinstall so that you'll end up overwriting ubuntu partition alone | 11:01 |
| tomreyn | erladfafas: note it's only available for i686 though | 11:02 |
| erladfafas | tomreyn, apt-get finds it, synaptic doesnät | 11:02 |

| tomreyn | erladfafas: try this: sudo apt-get install steam:i386 | 11:03 |
| miedziak | If you have /home on a separate partition, wouldn't it be enough to install complete Buntu on one partition and then, just link up the /home partition to fresh instalation? | 11:03 |
| anddam | tomreyn: something obvious come to mind? | 11:03 |
| anddam | comes* | 11:03 |
| erladfafas | tomreyn, yes, apt-get worked already | 11:03 |
| tomreyn | anddam: also there is #ubuntu-steam where this might be better suited. | 11:03 |
| tomreyn | erladfafas: ^ | 11:04 |

| anddam | just got it | 11:04 |
| Jonii | Are there any cool improvements with 16.10? | 11:05 |
| tomreyn | anddam: the remote config should work fine as long as you actually have those locales installed. the (local) C locale doesn't cover UTF-8, i *think* | 11:07 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: Hi | 11:08 |
| tomreyn | anddam: if you want to keep using the C locale locally (why?) then set it to C.UTF-8 instead | 11:08 |

| AppAraat | hello, I've noticed that I often go back and forth between Ubuntu VM snapshots on my system and that sometimes those snapshots have yet to be updated. I don't want to put a lot of strain on the servers hosting the updated packages so I'm wondering if I can do the following: Run the update once, "cache" the updates to a different server and then if I want to update again, I just point it to the "cache server" | 11:11 |
| AppAraat | (which runs locally) and get updates from there. | 11:12 |

| tomreyn | Jonii: keep in mind that by upgrading from the 16.04 LTS release to the 16.10 (non-LTS) release you force yourself to go through two upgrades per year (until at least the 18.04 release in april 2018), and that non-LTS releases are usually not as polished (and bug free) as LTS ones. | 11:12 |
| AppAraat | mandelaboy_: usually it automounts, but if not, look in your file manager for the drive and double click it. | 11:12 |
| MonkeyDust | mandelaboy_ sudo mount /dev/blah [folder where you want to see it] | 11:12 |
| AppAraat | ^ that is the CLI variant | 11:12 |
| MonkeyDust | mandelaboy_ gigolo is a nice gui | 11:13 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: what is the error? can you show it on paste.ubuntu.com? | 11:13 |
| Jonii | tomreyn: yeah... dunno. once every 6 months doesn't seem too bad | 11:13 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23973160/ | 11:14 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: MonkeyDust: AppAraat: And that error is for sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt1/ | 11:15 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: ok, try with sda5 | 11:15 |
| tomreyn | AppAraat: there are a couple APT specific caching servers, such as apt-cacher, apt-proxy, aptli (and others i forgot), or you could use a generic http cache, such as squid proxy, or a webserver which supports disk caching, such as nginx, apache | 11:15 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened. The volume may be already mounted, or another software may use it which could be identified for example by the help of the 'fuser' command. | 11:15 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: "mount | nc termbin.com 9999" | 11:16 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: http://termbin.com/fz07 | 11:16 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: ok, sda5 is already mounted | 11:17 |
| Kirch | I'm receiving 408 request timeout error in almost every site I tried. I've tested in Chromium and Opera too. | 11:17 |
| tomreyn | AppAraat: handling this overhead probably doesn't make much sense unless your primary intent is to speed up updates slightly, or you are going to use this proxy for 5 systems or more, i would say. | 11:18 |
| MonkeyDust | Kirch start here http://www.checkupdown.com/status/E408.html | 11:18 |
| Apachez | doesnt seem to happen much in the casper bug repository... are there no maintainer alive in there? Thinking of https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bugs | 11:19 |
| tomreyn | Jonii: yes this is probably fine. personally i would miss the lack of polish much more, though. | 11:19 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: AppAraat: When I open /dev/sda3 in file manager, it can't open it and it seems like it's some sort of text file | 11:19 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: AppAraat: "No application for block device files" | 11:20 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: yes, that is not a data partition. i am not sure if that is the reason why os-prober fails to find windows | 11:20 |
| Kirch | Ok, what should I do so? | 11:20 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: Hmm... :( | 11:21 |
| AppAraat | tomreyn: usually I test out different snapshots and since they're imaged from an older install, apt upgrade hauls in like 200+ MB of packages. So I thought I'd maybe ease the strain of servers. | 11:21 |
| AppAraat | mandelaboy_: it seems that /dev/sda5 is mounted on /media/christiaan/OS - is that what you were looking for? | 11:21 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: you could try to make a own grub entry pointing to windows. | 11:21 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: I would love to do that | 11:21 |
| AppAraat | tomreyn: unless it's not a big deal that I download somewhere around a GB per day? | 11:23 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: "blkid | nc termbin.com 9999" | 11:23 |
| tomreyn | AppAraat: i appreciate where you're coming from. but my (limited) understanding is that nowadays bandwidth is cheap, and enough mirror servers are available, so that it does not really matter. not for some hundred MBs. | 11:23 |
| mandelaboy_ | http://termbin.com/ep1y | 11:23 |
| tomreyn | AppAraat: for a different perspective, there are many cloud providers who never asked themselves this question and whose entire clouds just pull data live from the public mirror servers. | 11:24 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: Forgot to link you http://termbin.com/ep1y | 11:26 |
| AppAraat | tomreyn: yeah that's what I've always wondered. Bandwidth could be cheap but not at cloud scale I guess. Does that put considerable strain on servers? I'll still check those tools out in case I'll be updating multiple machines at the same time. | 11:26 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: now "sudo nano /etc/grub.d/40_custom" and then add this at the end: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23973205/ then press ctrl+o to save it and ctrl+x to exit. then run sudo update-gurb | 11:27 |
| tomreyn | AppAraat: i would think it does in that large scale, but i do not actually know. | 11:28 |
| tomreyn | *on | 11:28 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: Thanks. It doesn't show anything different from the previous sudo update-grub | 11:30 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: i am not sure if msdos2 is the correct partition. its worth adding it and seeing if it works on grub. | 11:30 |
| mandelaboy_ | k1l: How do I do that? | 11:32 |
| k1l | mandelaboy_: yes, there is no echo in it so there is no output. i suggest to test in on reboot | 11:32 |
| mandelaboy_ | ok i'm rebooting k1l | 11:33 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: Hi there. I rebooted and selected something called " 'Windows " , but the screen just turned blank for a few seconds and then returned to the grub | 11:37 |
| Kirch | Anyone? | 11:39 |
| Zta | Anyone here by any chance know how to feed "apt-get install gitolite3" with options so it won't prompt for a ssh key? I know adding "--admin-ssh-key /tmp/admin.pub" won't work but perhaps something similar. Or if it looks for a default key so I can place one? | 11:39 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: ok, open "sudo nano /etc/grub.d/40_custom" and change (hd0,msdos2) to (hd0,2). then run sudo update-grub again | 11:39 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: I'm so sorry for the terrible state of my computer btw | 11:40 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: Ok now reboot? | 11:41 |
| TZAnolo | Good morning. | 11:42 |
| TZAnolo | i neet to change the configurations of lightdm | 11:42 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: yes, if that doesnt work, you can press "e" in grub to edit that number again to 4 or 5 to test the other windows paritions | 11:42 |
| TZAnolo | and I know that all configurations are stored in /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d | 11:43 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: Ok | 11:43 |
| TZAnolo | but there are 9 files inside this directory | 11:43 |
| TZAnolo | wich one can I change? | 11:43 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: the documentation on windows and grub side varies a lot which partition to choose. so see if that works for one | 11:43 |
| TZAnolo | it's looking like a few configurations are kept in different files | 11:44 |
| TZAnolo | anyone | 11:46 |
| Npco | Question, Ubuntu Software, Updates, Os Updates... I click install, four seconds into the process it stops and is still availible. | 11:49 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: no matter what I type when I press e, it says: error: disk ''(hd0,2)'" not found | 11:49 |
| Npco | can anyone suggest a good vmware repository equivalent? | 11:52 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: ok, edit that again back to "hd0,msdos1" | 11:53 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: gives same error when I click ctrl X to boot | 11:53 |
| lapide_viridi | anddam, congratulations. You must be the first person to identify that my nickname is indeed latin. How comes that you recognized that? | 11:53 |
| lapide_viridi | Are you, by any change, a medical student? | 11:54 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: and msdos5 or msdos4? | 11:55 |
| mandelaboy | Unfortunately yes k1l | 11:55 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: are you sure the windows is ok to boot at all? because i strongly think msdos2 should be working. | 11:57 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: I booted from Windows into ubuntu this morning | 11:57 |
| Npco | is virtual box in the repository? | 11:58 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: I followed this: https://itsfoss.com/no-grub-windows-linux/ | 11:59 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: ok, then exchange the entries to: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23973346/ maybe this uefi loader works | 11:59 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: so you edited that before and it was not the installer? | 12:00 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: well, if the uefi entry doesnt work i dont know what to do then. | 12:01 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: Thanks for the help. I guess I'm stuck with ubuntu | 12:03 |
| k1l | did you try my uefi bootentry? | 12:05 |
| mandelaboy | k1l: I don't know how to do that unfortunately | 12:05 |
| === Npco is now known as fearitself | ||

| nx9010 | Hey everyone, I've got some issue where I can't open my Software center, does anyone have a better solution to getting new software on Lubuntu? running on an old laptop here | 12:13 |
| mandelaboyOnPC | k1l: How about this http://askubuntu.com/a/729752/650701 | 12:15 |
| k1l | mandelaboyOnPC: worth a try on the msdos2 setup | 12:16 |
| mandelaboyOnPC | k1l: So will it be (on /dev/sda3) then? | 12:17 |
| k1l | no, msdos2 is sda2 | 12:17 |
| mandelaboyOnPC | k1l: Ok. At the moment after the ### BEGIN, there is nothing else until ### END | 12:18 |
| k1l | only hd0 is started at 0. msdos starts at 1 (yes, doesnt make any sense, but they started this and stay on that scheme) | 12:18 |

| nx9010 | btw people, what I love about linux is how you can crank to 100% cpu usage with encoding h265 while still being able to do other things | 12:25 |

| Lavinho | how to install ubuntu on lenovo ideapad 100s ? | 12:27 |
| CrazyTux | hello, need some help. | 12:27 |
| CrazyTux | I have a file on the NTFS partition. I want to delete that but not able to. | 12:27 |
| ph88 | hi guys, i installed this deb from sourceforge https://sourceforge.net/projects/mercury/ after installing apt seems to be broken https://paste.fedoraproject.org/552898/86816060/ does anyone know how to fix it ? | 12:28 |
| CrazyTux | It says "Error removing file: No such file or directory". | 12:28 |
| CrazyTux | how can I delete that? | 12:29 |
| ppf | CrazyTux: the file doesn't exist | 12:29 |
| ppf | how are you deleting it? | 12:29 |
| CrazyTux | ppf, I can see that file. | 12:29 |
| ppf | with what | 12:30 |
| CrazyTux | I press Shift+Del to delete that file. | 12:30 |
| ppf | using which program | 12:30 |
| CrazyTux | on linux. | 12:31 |
| CrazyTux | I select that file in the file manager and press shift+del on it. | 12:31 |
| Lavinho | help me | 12:32 |
| ppf | try in the terminal, CrazyTux | 12:32 |
| CrazyTux | ok. but how? | 12:33 |
| nx9010 | Lavinho, I do not think it would be easy to that on that specific model due toe the | 12:33 |
| Lavinho | lenovo ideapad 100s | 12:33 |
| nx9010 | nature of that model | 12:33 |
| ppf | CrazyTux: rm "full path to the file" | 12:34 |
| nx9010 | Not sure if it would be supported without compiling your own drivers for it. | 12:34 |
| CrazyTux | ppf, I tried that too. It says the file does not exist. | 12:34 |
| Lavinho | nx910 help me | 12:34 |
| CrazyTux | It is on the ntfs partition. | 12:34 |
| ppf | CrazyTux: then the file doesn't exist | 12:34 |
| ppf | doesn't matter | 12:34 |
| CrazyTux | but, I can see the file. | 12:35 |
| k1l | mandelaboy: i dont know, sorry. | 12:35 |
| k1l | Lavinho: i linked the howto now 3 times to you. i will not link it a 4th time | 12:35 |
| Lavinho | I do not know with the commands that are there | 12:36 |
| nx9010 | Just saying this Lavinho, I am still having issues with my Compaq nx9010 here and that is an old known laptop | 12:37 |
| CrazyTux | hello, any help? | 12:37 |
| michaldybczak | I can't download dropbox daemon, google is not helping, I am clueless and don't know what to do next | 12:38 |
| k1l | Lavinho: yes, you have a very special laptop. its more like a chromebook not like a laptop. that doesnt have a disk or ssd but a emmc card. and a rubbish 32bit uefi. its the worst laptop to install linux to for a beginner | 12:38 |
| michaldybczak | drobox works well everywhere exept ubuntu? | 12:38 |
| Lavinho | explain | 12:38 |
| Lavinho | ? | 12:38 |
| nx9010 | Its like the asus transformer t100 lol | 12:39 |
| michaldybczak | it doesn't matter what source I use to install drobox, it always fails at downloading deamon | 12:39 |
| michaldybczak | can anyone help me with it? | 12:39 |
| nx9010 | Lavinho, think about trading it for an older laptop that will support linux | 12:39 |
| nx9010 | and run a small light weight distro like Lubuntu | 12:39 |
| nx9010 | but maybe on your current DSL | 12:39 |
| k1l | Lavinho: look at the howto i linked you several times now. read it. | 12:39 |
| nx9010 | although it is not noob safe | 12:40 |
| CrazyTux | for which kind of users and for which kind of computers is Lubuntu suitable? | 12:40 |
| ph88 | can someone with ubuntu 16.04 pastebin an ls of their /usr/bin ? | 12:40 |
| nx9010 | k1l, I think you are wasting time like me :p people just want a nice distro working out of the box on anything | 12:40 |
| nx9010 | That is why so many people got a Pi and now sell it on ebay because they do not know how to deal with limited resources. I myself prefer GUI's | 12:41 |
| nx9010 | anyone here running a linux server? | 12:42 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: for everyone. but the intention of Lubuntu is shipping a desktop ubuntu that is made for slow and old hardware. | 12:42 |
| CrazyTux | ok | 12:42 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: but there are others who like lxde and run that on modern fast comupters | 12:43 |
| nx9010 | or if you prefer performance tasks over eye candy, right k1l? | 12:43 |
| nx9010 | like encoding libraries | 12:43 |
| CrazyTux | that means we can't expect many features in Lubuntu that we see in a distro like Ubuntu? | 12:43 |
| nx9010 | They are mostly replaced with more light weight altrenatives | 12:43 |
| nx9010 | But you can install seperate things ofcourse from Ubuntu in Lubuntu | 12:44 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: that heavily depends on what features we are talking about. they still share the same repos, so everything is installable on lubuntu, too | 12:44 |
| CrazyTux | ok | 12:44 |
| nx9010 | CrazyTux, What are the specs you are installing Linux onto? | 12:44 |
| CrazyTux | I have a laptop that has 4gbs of ram. 1TB HDD and it runs on Intel Core i3 cpu with 2 Ghz. | 12:45 |
| nx9010 | I dont recommend the normal Ubuntu installation, it's so tablet based :( | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 12:45 |
| nx9010 | I'd go for Mint or Lubuntu that myself | 12:46 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: any ubuntu flavor will run on that | 12:46 |
| CrazyTux | ok. I am using Xubuntu on it. | 12:46 |
| nx9010 | The onboard graphics might be a little bit slower on the newest ubuntu | 12:46 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: and if you feel its kind of slow i strongly suggest buying a ssd. that is a lot of speedup | 12:46 |
| CrazyTux | ok | 12:46 |
| CrazyTux | It's fine now. | 12:47 |
| nx9010 | or a cheaper option, a SSHD, so you have a fast cache | 12:47 |
| k1l | nx9010: the gpu requirements didnt change over the last years. | 12:47 |
| nx9010 | If you only have one bay in your laptop but still want to be able to have loads of movies or data with you | 12:47 |
| k1l | i dont suggest sshd. | 12:47 |
| cfhowlett | CrazyTux, sudo apt install lxde. logout, choose lxde session, login. you'll have the look and feel of lubuntu, but not the apps. test away. | 12:47 |
| nx9010 | Why not if I may ask? | 12:47 |
| CrazyTux | the problem I encountered is that there is a file on the HDD. On the ntfs partition. I am not able to delete that. I get an error message saying that the file doesn't exist. | 12:48 |
| CrazyTux | cfhowlett, I'll try that. | 12:48 |
| nx9010 | Yes. It's exactly the same size as the SSD cache if I am not mistaken. | 12:49 |
| nx9010 | Which would explain why it can not be deleted I suppose. | 12:49 |
| nx9010 | Its a mirroring system only the HDD controller has access to. | 12:49 |
| cfhowlett | CrazyTux, should you choose to go with a different *buntu, a new install in not required. simply install the *buntu-desktop of choice and purge the xubuntu-desktop. | 12:50 |
| cecilia | holoo | 12:50 |
| jophish | hi all | 12:50 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: where do you get that error exactly? | 12:50 |

| jophish | how can I debug a slow wireless conection with ubuntu? | 12:50 |

| === Jochen_wvdT is now known as Schlawiner | ||
| k1l | michaldybczak: after that use the system settings -> updates and software to change the dropbox PPA to direct at xenial and not wily. | 13:04 |
| CrazyTux | I have tried rm also. But the result is the same. | 13:06 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: i doubt | 13:06 |
| michaldybczak | k1l, ok, I got rid of willy. but now it says, lack of dependencies no drobox for nautilus drobox | 13:06 |
| CrazyTux | how can I post the screen shot here? | 13:06 |
| cfhowlett | CrazyTux, and no errro message? | 13:06 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: can you show the rm command and output? | 13:06 |
| cfhowlett | CrazyTux, commandgoeshere | pastebinit | 13:06 |

| k1l | michaldybczak: did you run "sudo apt update"? | 13:07 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: is the nam correct? did you use tab completion? | 13:07 |
| michaldybczak | yes. and the weird thing is, when I try to apt install dropbox, it says it is already the newest version | 13:08 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: and are you sure that is actually a file and not a placeholder from ntfs? | 13:08 |
| CrazyTux | k1l, what is tab completion? | 13:08 |
| michaldybczak | kl1, the issue is, dropbox daemon always fails to downlad | 13:08 |
| k1l | michaldybczak: apt purge dropbox* | 13:09 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: use the tab key to let the name be automatically completed | 13:09 |
| CrazyTux | k1l, not sure what it is. It just sits there on my ntfs partition. | 13:09 |
| jyo_ | Hello | 13:09 |
| CrazyTux | tab key? where? | 13:09 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: "sudo rm tmp*press tab key*" | 13:10 |
| michaldybczak | k1l, after that dropbox-nautilus was installed successfully. however I'm not sure what is the difference between this and usual dropbox, will be checking | 13:10 |
| jyo_ | Does anyone know where I might find the gnome-color settings, the file would be great. | 13:10 |
| Tin_man | CrazyTux, geeesuz it's the key that says "TAB" | 13:10 |
| jyo_ | I am having an issue running eclipse with i3wm on ubuntu. | 13:11 |
| tomreyn | anddam: so what's what you chose when installing, an option called "leave locale as it is" IIRC | 13:11 |
| jyo_ | Or any other solution, | 13:11 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: please provide a "ls -al" from that directory | 13:11 |
| michaldybczak | k1l, the same issue. when I open dropbox, it wants to download daemon and fails: http://imgur.com/a/S57KJ | 13:12 |
| cfhowlett | CrazyTux, ls -al | pastebinit | 13:12 |
| CrazyTux | ok. I typed rm then space then the file name and then pressed the TAB key. Is that right? | 13:12 |
| michaldybczak | k1l, I tried to install dropbox from different sources, from deb, from willy and more and always got stuck at the same download error | 13:12 |
| k1l | michaldybczak: do you use a proxy? or tor? or vpn? | 13:12 |
| nx9010 | Could I run some emulator on a laptop with a Pentium IV ? under lubuntu? | 13:13 |
| michaldybczak | k1l, no, no proxy or vpn. | 13:13 |
| ducasse | jyo_: iirc there is an open bug for eclipse with i3, but i don't remember the details. | 13:13 |
| cardin | hey | 13:13 |
| Night_ | k1l: I manged to remove it, it was in "/usr/sbin/nginx.old" | 13:13 |
| Night_ | rmed that and it is clean | 13:13 |
| Night_ | thank you :) | 13:13 |
| k1l | Night_: ah right, sorry forgot about that. | 13:14 |
| Night_ | k1l: no worries :) I learnt from it, which is better than beeing told where it was. | 13:14 |
| Night_ | any suggestions on which modules to include in an nginx build? | 13:15 |
| CrazyTux | k1l, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23973673/ | 13:15 |
| michaldybczak | k1l, I usually can handle some various issues. I wouldn't come here if the problem was above my abilities to find out what is wrong. basically, all dropbox installation methods I found are working till I get this daemon download and then error, always the same, reboot doesn't help. I'm stuck. | 13:15 |
| CrazyTux | k1l, please look into that. | 13:15 |
| Night_ | I'm building one with this one https://github.com/grahamedgecombe/nginx-ct | 13:15 |
| k1l | michaldybczak: run "dropbox start -i" | 13:15 |
| Night_ | CrazyTux: did oyu get cyptovirus? | 13:16 |
| Night_ | sure looks like it | 13:16 |
| CrazyTux | Night, what is that? | 13:16 |
| michaldybczak | k1l, I get: Starting Dropbox...<urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:590)> | 13:16 |
| Night_ | a virus that encrypts all your files and makes you pay | 13:16 |
| michaldybczak | that at least tells us something | 13:16 |
| michaldybczak | will google what the certificate issue is | 13:17 |
| CrazyTux | Night, I don't think so. | 13:17 |
| Night_ | what is your issue michaldybczak | 13:17 |
| Night_ | CrazyTux: that is a long sha2 hash | 13:18 |
| CrazyTux | Night, I don't know this either. | 13:18 |
| ioria | CrazyTux, it's 0 size, try find . -size 0 -delete in that folder | 13:18 |
| Luciano | !ciao | 13:19 |
| SchrodingersScat | CrazyTux: if rm won't delete it, would find maybe do it? something like find . -name "tmp209*" -delete | 13:19 |
| Luciano | !list | 13:19 |
| ubottu | Luciano: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». | 13:19 |
| CrazyTux | I just want it to be deleted from my hard disk. | 13:19 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: ok, now please go to that folder with "cd /path/to/that/folder". then do "rm tmp209" then press your tabulator-key to let the name be automatically completed. | 13:19 |
| SchrodingersScat | thought they said they tried that | 13:19 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: that way you make sure not to misstype | 13:19 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: when you are in the folder a "rm tmp209*" should work too | 13:20 |
| Luciano | !ciao | 13:20 |
| Luciano | !list | 13:20 |
| ubottu | Luciano: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». | 13:20 |
| Night_ | k1l: does that look like a cryptovirus toyou? Only pleaces ive seen those files are with that | 13:20 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, my issue is with downlading dropbox daemon. I get urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed | 13:20 |
| k1l | Night_: i dont know what that user did there | 13:20 |
| Night_ | michaldybczak: you are missing a CA | 13:20 |
| michaldybczak | what is CA? | 13:21 |
| ioria | cerification authority | 13:21 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: if that is not working unmount that partition and run a fsck on it. | 13:21 |
| Night_ | so you michaldybczak you need to check with CA dropbox uses and grab that toyour repo | 13:21 |
| CrazyTux | I did as instructed. That still says no such file in that directory. | 13:21 |
| CrazyTux | ok. I will try this. | 13:21 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: wait | 13:21 |
| Night_ | https://www.digicert.com/digicert-root-certificates.htm | 13:21 |
| Night_ | grab thse michaldybczak that test | 13:21 |
| k1l | CrazyTux: try one more time with "rm -f" to force the rmeove | 13:22 |
| Night_ | DigiCert EV Code Signing CA (SHA2) | 13:22 |
| jyo_ | ducasse, this is simply to do with eclips depending on the system tooltips background color for the editor message boxes, and being unable to change the colour. | 13:22 |
| Night_ | and DigiCert SHA2 Extended Validation Server CA | 13:23 |
| Night_ | those are what dropbox uses from a quick check | 13:23 |
| jyo_ | I was wondering if there is a system file somwhere that I could use ore create to do the same. | 13:23 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, and then what? Copy one of these to /etc/apt/sources.list? | 13:23 |
| Night_ | noooo | 13:23 |
| javed | any body here | 13:23 |
| javed | any body here | 13:23 |
| Night_ | sudo mkdir /usr/share/ca-certificates/extra | 13:23 |
| anddam | tomreyn: likely | 13:23 |
| cfhowlett | ask your ubuntu question javed | 13:23 |
| SchrodingersScat | !ask | javed | 13:23 |
| ubottu | javed: 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 | 13:23 |

| javed | which is the best backbox or linux | 13:24 |
| Night_ | for oyu apple | 13:24 |
| anddam | tomreyn: what's a sane setup instead? | 13:25 |
| cardin | btw What is the best ubuntu flavor for older pcs | 13:25 |
| javed | not fo rapple | 13:25 |
| javed | apple | 13:25 |
| k1l | javed: since you ask in #ubuntu: ubuntu | 13:25 |
| Night_ | well you pick OS for your needs | 13:25 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, is your command with "digi....crt" correct? or should I paste there something? | 13:25 |
| cfhowlett | javed, backbox is not supported or discussed here. perhaps you should ask #linux . | 13:25 |
| anddam | k1l: how did you even understand the question? | 13:25 |
| Night_ | no, you need to download verty | 13:25 |
| Night_ | cert, and edit the last part | 13:25 |
| Night_ | :) | 13:25 |
| SchrodingersScat | cardin: iirc the lightest is lubuntu, followed by xubuntu | 13:25 |
| k1l | anddam: my guessing foo is magic :) | 13:26 |
| CrazyTux | btw, which DE between Mate and Xfce provides an interface with rich features and is more intuitive? | 13:26 |
| Night_ | k1l: foo magic is sline! | 13:26 |
| cfhowlett | CrazyTux, install both, test and decide for yourself | 13:26 |
| SCHAAP137 | good question, imho Xfce is more reach in features regarding the panels etc | 13:26 |
| SCHAAP137 | *rich | 13:26 |
| SCHAAP137 | but MATE feels more intuitive | 13:26 |
| CrazyTux | ok | 13:27 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, sorry, been trying to figure out what you meant, but I have no idea what to do. when I click on those certificates, I get message, I already have them, so I went back to the last one of the root certificates and finally found a one that was not there and I got some dialog window that asked me if I trust it. otherwise, I have no idea what to put into your commands and how to obtain that "it". this certifiate thing is totally | 13:30 |
| michaldybczak | new and confusing for me. | 13:30 |
| Night_ | michaldybczak: give me 5min I'll make a script for you, doing some of my own now so hold on :) | 13:31 |
| k1l | michaldybczak: run "sudo update-ca-certificates -f " | 13:32 |
| k1l | this will update the root certificates from your system. | 13:32 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, thanks. I feel ashamed to use so much of your time. I prefer to know what I am doing but in this case I bet it will be quicker that way then explain and talk a lot through this. | 13:32 |
| DoJoker | dd | 13:32 |
| Night_ | No issue, we where all at this stage at once, and we always strive to learn more | 13:33 |
| cfhowlett | michaldybczak, sometimes just kicking back and watching the irc streams can be quite educational ... | 13:33 |
| jyo_ | might be able to grab the setting from here: “gtk-color-scheme” gchar * | 13:33 |
| tomreyn | anddam: most commonly you'd set it to your preferred / local LOCALE. For me, it's "de_DE.UTF-8". | 13:34 |
| michaldybczak | k1l, I did update it, but it didn't change anything, still the same error. | 13:34 |
| jyo_ | could be fun trying, I am just studying pointers now ... | 13:34 |
| michaldybczak | cfhowlett, ubuntu channel is very, very challenging and confusing. too many things going on so it's hard to keep track. I am in awe seeing how some can help many people simultaneously. that's an incredible multi-tasking skill. I wish I had such a divided attention. | 13:35 |
| setuid | TIL we don't call them 'channels' anymore, they're "streams"? | 13:36 |
| jnoob22 | michaldybczak, get a job in support ... you'll become very good at all that :-) | 13:36 |
| cfhowlett | a stream is an ongoing topic within the channel | 13:36 |

| cfhowlett | elegant code, Night_ | 13:37 |
| Night_ | cfhowlett: quick and dirty | 13:37 |
| Night_ | does the trick | 13:37 |
| Night_ | ^^ | 13:37 |
| Night_ | could have been #!/bin/bash and such | 13:38 |
| Night_ | but meh | 13:38 |
| michaldybczak | jnoob22, I would be not in the right place in such job. I know that one can improve some skills, but some talent must be there to back it up. I lack of it. I rather focus on one or few things and dig slowly, providing that is something I understand and like. so I can patently follow the topic. but some things are outside my scope and then I just can't focus on it long enough, too much variables, too much new information, too little | 13:38 |
| michaldybczak | available time. | 13:38 |
| Night_ | michaldybczak: give me heads up weather or not it works, if not I'll digg some more around | 13:39 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, thanks, will do | 13:39 |

| piglit | if i do fdisk -l i get: Disk /dev/md:0 think that is the one | 13:42 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, I did what you posted and the same issue: Starting Dropbox...<urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:590)> | 13:43 |

| niceguy | hi people | 13:44 |
| niceguy | I got an issue | 13:45 |
| piglit | koffeinfriendhof: it tells me sdd and sdb are raid 1 /mnt/raid1 | 13:45 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, no. I use "dropbox start -i" then I get this window: http://imgur.com/a/I2cx5 and then this one: http://imgur.com/a/S57KJ, while on terminal I get the erro output I posted above | 13:45 |
| piglit | thanx | 13:45 |
| jnoob22 | having a look, Night_ | 13:46 |
| piglit | soo long ago i could not remember | 13:46 |
| niceguy | I just moved my swap partition from sda5 to sda7 | 13:46 |
| Night_ | michaldybczak: is that osx? | 13:46 |
| niceguy | but my distros don't know that. | 13:46 |
| niceguy | how can I tell'em | 13:46 |
| EriC^^ | niceguy: change /etc/fstab | 13:46 |
| k1l | michaldybczak: make sure there is no .dropbox folder in your home | 13:46 |
| EriC^^ | niceguy: guy the new uuid from "sudo blkid" and put it there | 13:47 |
| jnoob22 | Night_, you get any errors thus far? | 13:47 |
| Night_ | not tried bulding yet, wanted to know if I am missing anything | 13:47 |
| jnoob22 | depends on what you're trying to add into it. | 13:47 |
| niceguy | EriC^^: thx, will do | 13:47 |
| jnoob22 | if you do make mistakes though, remember you can always just do make clean; and start over | 13:47 |
| EriC^^ | niceguy: np | 13:48 |
| Night_ | jnoob22: I wanted stantd, but with that nginx-ct | 13:48 |
| Night_ | i normaly use nginx-common and nginx-full | 13:48 |
| Night_ | with http2 ssl | 13:49 |
| koffeinfriedhof | piglit: You do not mount a disk, you mount a partition. Use "cat /proc/mdstat" to check state of raid, the other commands to see what partitions are available and where they are mounted | 13:49 |
| Night_ | i dont support non ssl | 13:49 |
| jnoob22 | those look to me to be a good start mate. Just depends on what you would like to add. | 13:49 |
| niceguy | EriC^^: done it, so now i need to reboot? | 13:49 |
| Night_ | jnoob22: ok ill give it a try 2min | 13:49 |
| Night_ | 2sec | 13:49 |
| piglit | confusion is that lsblk tells me the /mnt/raid1 = 3,7Tb and diskanalyser tells me it is 49.1 GB | 13:49 |
| EriC^^ | niceguy: yeah, you could try "sudo mount -a" to test first | 13:49 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, no, that's ubuntu but stiles as osx, macbuntu theme and all ;P | 13:50 |
| jnoob22 | Night_, if it's compelling just post output to UPB | 13:50 |
| EriC^^ | niceguy: unless you're in a live usb, then nevermind | 13:50 |
| michaldybczak | but stiled* as osx Night_ | 13:50 |
| piglit | diskanalyser = baobab | 13:50 |
| niceguy | EriC^^: I ran the command | 13:50 |
| koffeinfriedhof | piglit: df -h shows you the partitions size and used state | 13:50 |
| jnoob22 | wish there was a channel (erm "stream") for how to build a house :-) | 13:51 |
| EriC^^ | niceguy: ok, does "lsblk" show the swap ? | 13:51 |
| niceguy | nothing on the screen though | 13:51 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, I don't have any drobox folder in my home. installation never got to a point to create it | 13:51 |
| Night_ | configure worked | 13:51 |
| Night_ | michaldybczak: which dopbox did oyu install | 13:51 |
| jnoob22 | Night_, good deal | 13:51 |
| Night_ | ill test it on my dev box jnoob22, make running now | 13:51 |
| Night_ | no errors | 13:51 |
| jnoob22 | i assume you want to install to /usr/local/ ? | 13:52 |
| Night_ | yeah | 13:52 |
| jnoob22 | dont think i saw --pre .. | 13:52 |
| Night_ | hmm where should that me | 13:52 |
| george_ | hello can i get some help please i am using ubuntu 16.04 the shutdown button is missing from the cog icon | 13:52 |
| Night_ | did not see that in documentation on build for nginx | 13:52 |
| jnoob22 | Night_, /usr/local is default, so you don't need it unless you want to install it elsewhere | 13:52 |
| Night_ | ah :) | 13:52 |
| jnoob22 | i always do --pre=/home/hseritt/apps | 13:53 |
| jnoob22 | but that's just me | 13:53 |
| Night_ | aha :) | 13:53 |
| george_ | as i when i click shut down the only option availible is log off | 13:53 |
| Night_ | make and make install ran just fine | 13:53 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, I tried from caja, drobox from deb, from willy repo and now nautilus-dropbox. the same issue with everyone. | 13:53 |
| jnoob22 | for a dev/prod server, what you have is ok. as long as *you* know where it's at | 13:53 |
| Night_ | but no service is added | 13:53 |
| jnoob22 | Night_, do you need a service to start up with system startup? | 13:53 |
| Night_ | mm | 13:53 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, caja didn't even opened so I deleted it. | 13:53 |

| jnoob22 | it's not going to install a service mate | 13:54 |
| Night_ | so need to add that my self | 13:54 |
| jnoob22 | yes | 13:54 |
| jnoob22 | im certain if you do a search on how to create your own init script, it will tell yo uhow | 13:54 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, let it for now. I will have to go for about 2 hours. we won't solve it right now it seems | 13:54 |
| Night_ | yeha doing that now | 13:54 |
| jnoob22 | Night_, you handy with bash programming? | 13:54 |
| Night_ | jnoob22: been awhile since i touched that | 13:55 |
| jnoob22 | it's actually simple to create your own init script | 13:55 |
| Night_ | got any example? | 13:55 |
| Night_ | sudo: nginx: command not found | 13:55 |
| Night_ | hmm | 13:55 |
| jnoob22 | If you google something like ubuntu service init script howto ... you may find this gem ;-) https://mobiarch.wordpress.com/2014/05/16/creating-an-init-script-in-ubuntu-14-04/ | 13:56 |

| jnoob22 | in fact Tomcat (by its quirkiness at times) lends it self for this sort of thing | 13:57 |

| michaldybczak | Night_, thanks anyway, the issue may be some python package related. I somewhere that someone got around it downgrading some package. those topics were a bit too technical so I didn't understand too much. I am not a programmer. anyway, will have to go soon. maybe I will drop by later. thanks again and also thanks to k1l and cfhowlett | 14:00 |
| cfhowlett | happy2help! michaldybczak | 14:00 |
| Night_ | :) | 14:00 |
| k1l | michaldybczak: well, it could still be an python issue | 14:00 |
| k1l | did you make changes to python? | 14:00 |
| george_ | i cant take a screenie but the cog icon at the top right->shutdown->there should be 2 boxes shutdown and log off the only box is log off | 14:00 |
| michaldybczak | no, not that I am aware of | 14:01 |
| george_ | is there a way i can get the shutdown option back | 14:01 |
| michaldybczak | this is pretty fresh ubuntu install. I just installed software and styled it as osx and that's all | 14:01 |
| anddam | what's the proper place to setup locale for a X session? | 14:02 |

| clissold345 | george_, Can you simply turn your computer off and restart? You'll lose any unsaved data (but on reboot you would lose unsaved data too). | 14:16 |

| as__ | hi, I logged in before with a nickname i dont remember: trying to reset a password. What I did in grub did not work. Grub confirmed that the password got changed, but on typing exit the system froze and I had to unplug. Logging in again I tried the new password but I did not log in | 14:26 |
| compdoc | beqa, dont paste crap into the channel. | 14:26 |
| EriC^^ | as__: how did you reset the password? | 14:30 |

| Night_ | k1l: would think reset of bar would work | 14:43 |
| vgoodguy | i am using ubuntu 16.04 64bit and I wanted to dual boot phoenix os | 14:43 |
| vgoodguy | but when i choose live cd or install at boot, pc restarts by itself | 14:44 |
| vgoodguy | what should i do? | 14:44 |
| k1l | Night_: george maybe a unity reset can help | 14:44 |
| Night_ | k1l: annoying to use cmd after terminal, nothing works | 14:44 |
| Night_ | k1l: what i thought | 14:44 |
| cfhowlett | vgoodguy, do you have ubuntu installed? | 14:44 |
| vgoodguy | yes | 14:44 |
| vgoodguy | cfhowlett, yes | 14:44 |
| george | how do i reset unity please | 14:44 |
| cfhowlett | vgoodguy, then go to the phoenix OS support for help with installing it. | 14:45 |
| cfhowlett | there's a help cent4r and a forum | 14:45 |
| vgoodguy | cfhowlett, they said that phoenix supports x86 processors. | 14:46 |
| MonkeyDust | vgoodguy start here http://www.phoenixos.com/help/faq/x86 | 14:46 |
| vgoodguy | cfhowlett, I am using an Intel x64 | 14:46 |
| cfhowlett | vgoodguy, this is NOT phoenix support. for installing phoenix, go to their support pages. | 14:46 |
| MonkeyDust | vgoodguy you're in the wrong channel | 14:46 |
| === fcanela_ is now known as fcanela | ||
| vgoodguy | MonkeyDust, I thought maybe my Ubuntu was having conflicts with phoenixOS. seems like that's not the case now. | 14:47 |
| k1l | george: do a "dconf reset -f "/home/yourusername/" " while inserting your username ther | 14:49 |
| vgoodguy | k11 bro, is there anyway to do the same with KDE, (kubuntu) ? | 14:49 |
| k1l | vgoodguy: i dont know kde, sorry. the guys in #kubuntu might know | 14:50 |
| vgoodguy | join #kubuntu | 14:51 |
| k1l | george: seems its a user setting from your user. so if that doesnt help after relogin then install and use "unity-tweak-tool" to reset to defaults | 14:51 |

| Eva_ | Ubuntu login problem - By misstake I switched off my Ubuntu system before an extensive updating was finished. After that I could not log in. When I enter my password the computer seems to restart and shows the login screen again. Is there any way out of this mess? Please could anyone help me! Kind regards from Sweden. | 15:32 |
| FinalX | Eva_: don't really have the time now to dive deeply into it with you, but one way would perhaps boot from a live cd, mount the filesystems, chroot to them, and "apt-get install -f" at least | 15:35 |
| FinalX | then try update+upgrade from within the chroot after | 15:35 |
| sirv | login screen u mean graphical login screen ? but u can login into console ? | 15:36 |
| Eva_ | Thank you FinalX! | 15:36 |
| sirv | when u press ctrl+alt+f1 | 15:36 |
| sirv | eva -- u gen an console login prompt right ? | 15:37 |
| negre | negre | 15:37 |
| Eva_ | Yes, graphical login screen. | 15:37 |
| negre | negre | 15:37 |
| sirv | eva > look .. now u are using another computer right ? | 15:37 |
| Psychonaut | negre, Are you okay mate? | 15:38 |
| sirv | eva > on the broken computer when u press ctrl+atl+f1 u get into text mode , there u can login, | 15:38 |
| sirv | and maybe finish the update process | 15:38 |
| Eva_ | Should I press Ctrl-Alt-F1 when I start the computer? | 15:38 |
| sirv | no | 15:38 |
| sirv | when u are asked for your username and password | 15:38 |
| Eva_ | Yes, I am using a Windows computer right now. | 15:38 |
| sirv | then try to login with your username/password | 15:39 |
| sirv | and then try 'apt-get install -f' | 15:39 |
| negre | negre;fr | 15:39 |
| sirv | or "sudo apt-get install -f" | 15:40 |
| sirv | u cannot login into ubuntu desktop right, but maybe u can login into console | 15:41 |
| Eva_ | Thank you, I tried to log in i text mode and It was not possible to enter my password. | 15:42 |
| Eva_ | The cursor didn´t move forward, when I enterd the pasword letters. | 15:42 |
| Eva_ | And I have got message: Incorrect pasword | 15:42 |
| ducasse | Eva_: there is no cursor at all when you enter password in text mode | 15:45 |

| ChadTaljaardt | How to enable root in vsftpd? | 15:49 |
| sirv | eva > try again | 15:49 |
| Eva_ | No, really not. | 15:49 |
| sirv | eva > what is your username ? | 15:49 |
| ioria | Eva_, ok, so if you cannot login you need Recovery Mode from Grub -> Advanced Options | 15:49 |
| Eva_ | My user name is Eva. | 15:50 |
| ioria | Eva_, you know Recovery Mode ? | 15:50 |
| sirv | so enter Eva ... the press enter .. then type password .. then press enter again ... | 15:50 |
| sirv | try to type the password first in the login: prompt instead of username .. so you can chceck that they keyboard layout is correct | 15:51 |
| sirv | so you can visibly see the password | 15:51 |
| Eva_ | Thank you I m trying ... | 15:52 |
| ChadTaljaardt | Anyone know how to let root login to ftp? | 15:52 |
| Night_ | why on earth would you wnat that | 15:52 |
| ducasse | ChadTaljaardt: i hear a lot of bad ideas in this channel, but i think that is a new record tbh. | 15:53 |
| ChadTaljaardt | i need to edit my /var/www folder | 15:54 |
| ChadTaljaardt | the computer isnt connected to WAN | 15:54 |
| Seminarian | I've been updating some packages with software center. Now something broke on my system. I'd like to undo all updates from last week. How can I approach this easily? | 15:54 |
| ChadTaljaardt | its a private computer in my house lol | 15:54 |
| Seminarian | running kubuntu 14.04 btw. | 15:54 |
| ducasse | ChadTaljaardt: still, bad practice. give a normal user access instead. | 15:55 |
| Eva_ | I tried several times an I got the same error message , is there anything else I could do? | 15:55 |
| ioria | Eva_, you know Recovery Mode ? | 15:55 |
| Eva_ | No? | 15:55 |
| Eva_ | Sorry, I don`t know how to enter recovery mode. | 15:56 |
| ioria | Eva_, you can select the rescue mode from Grub , you need to press shift right after the bios screen | 15:56 |
| Onepamopa | can someone tell me how to add a custom OS menu entry in grub2 but on TOP, before ubuntu | 15:56 |
| === Guest15105 is now known as easeleaf | ||
| Psychonaut | Eva_, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode | 15:57 |
| ioria | Eva_, after pressing shift (spam it) you'll see something like this https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/access-grub2-boot-loader.png | 15:57 |
| Eva_ | Thank you, I have tried already three times to press Shift after the BIOS screeen, but it didn´t open anything. | 16:00 |
| Onepamopa | can someone tell me how to add a custom OS menu entry in grub2 but on TOP, before ubuntu ? | 16:00 |
| Onepamopa | anyone? | 16:00 |
| HankMoody | Morning everyone. Am I correct in that there is currently now way of watching DRM flash content? | 16:00 |
| EriC^^ | Onepamopa: add it to /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 16:00 |
| Eva_ | Thank you for the link to the new screen. | 16:01 |
| HankMoody | currently no way*** | 16:01 |
| ioria | Eva_, keep trying, otherwise you need a live cd | 16:01 |
| EriC^^ | Onepamopa: and change the number before _custom so it's run before other ones | 16:01 |
| Onepamopa | EriC^^, it's already there but it appears on the bottom | 16:01 |
| Onepamopa | ah okay | 16:01 |
| xangua | HankMoody: it depends, there's a project called "fresh player", what site? | 16:01 |
| EriC^^ | Onepamopa: make it 06_custom | 16:01 |
| Eva_ | Should I press the Shift several times? | 16:01 |
| Onepamopa | so let's say 10_linux -> 20_linux, and 40_custom -> 10_custom ? | 16:01 |
| Onepamopa | ah okay | 16:02 |
| ducasse | Eva_: try esc instead | 16:02 |
| Eva_ | Or shoudl I hod that key all the time? | 16:02 |
| Eva_ | Escape after the BIOS screen? | 16:02 |
| ducasse | Eva_: yes, spam it | 16:02 |
| HankMoody | foxsportsgo.com, watchespn.com, nbcsports.com, etc. Pretty much want a way to be able to watch them all on my Linux box. Not necessarily all at once, but a couple of them at a time. | 16:03 |
| Eva_ | Yes, that worked with Esc! :-) | 16:03 |
| EriC^^ | Onepamopa: then sudo update-grub | 16:03 |
| Onepamopa | yes, did that | 16:04 |
| Eva_ | And what should I do now in the GNU GRUB screen? | 16:04 |
| ducasse | Eva_: 'advanced', i think, and then 'recovery' | 16:05 |
| HankMoody | xangua: during (american) football season I generally watch 4 or 5 games at once; and once that's over I do the same with international football. I've got accounts with all of previously mentioned sites, I've just been unable to watch them on my Linux box, and am then forced to find a less than reputable (not to mention low quality) site to stream the games on. | 16:05 |
| compdoc | VIDEOS ON nbcsports.com work for me. I dont have an account to try foxsportsgo.com | 16:05 |
| HankMoody | compdoc: what browser? | 16:06 |
| Eva_ | I didn´t find any recovery. Only System setup or Advanced flags for Ubuntu. | 16:06 |
| xangua | HankMoody: so check fresh player, as I said | 16:06 |
| compdoc | watchespn.com wants me to install Flash | 16:06 |
| ducasse | Eva_: yes, it should be under advanced | 16:06 |
| compdoc | HankMoody, chrome | 16:06 |
| Eva_ | Thank you, I will try now! :-) | 16:06 |
| HankMoody | xangua: thank you | 16:06 |
| HankMoody | xangua: Weird, I just tried pulling up the United game and it did the typical endless "loading" circle. | 16:07 |
| ducasse | Eva_: when the recovery menu appears, there should be an entry to reset password | 16:08 |
| Eva_ | I have got several options of Ubuntu (recovery mode) with different numbers. The highest is Ubuntu with Linux 3.13 .0 - 108 and the lowest is 3.13.0 - 32 | 16:10 |
| ducasse | Eva_: try the highest | 16:10 |
| HankMoody | xangua: Excellent, this is exactly what I was looking for and partly the reason I ditched Debian. I had read some articles that said that the DRM via flash packages had broken and was hoping for another to come along before too long; and my hopes have been answered. | 16:12 |
| xangua | Yes, flash has been broken for several years ;( | 16:13 |
| Eva_ | ducasse_: I have got a recovery menu with following alternatives: resume, clean, dpkg, failsafeX, fsck, grub, network, root, system-sumary | 16:13 |
| anddam | any hint about what could be wrong with unicode on a remote ubuntu host? https://gist.github.com/anddam/a9cf3aef9eb58e9924fc87344e59d22a | 16:14 |
| ioria | Eva_, network and then root shell | 16:14 |
| Eva_ | Which of these options should I choose? | 16:14 |
| Eva_ | OK, thANK you! | 16:14 |
| HankMoody | Yeah it's the same way in Debian, the last one that worked there was hal-flash iirc. The only flash sites that worked were CBS's "All Access" and part of "WatchESPN". You couldn't get the big games to load, but if you clicked on enough of the random sports nobody gives a damn about a window would pop open, and you could get random "extra" streams to open, the sky cam, the Spanish broadcast, etc. | 16:16 |
| OerHeks | HankMoody, google chrome does DRM. but flash will soon be dead, as it should be, browsers block the plugin. | 16:18 |
| Eva_ | I entered "network" from the recovery menu and I have got warnings. The latest came from ModemManager[724]: Couldn´t find support for device at ...: not supporterd by any plugin - Maybe because I use my modem at another computer right now? | 16:20 |
| === miczac_ is now known as miczac | ||
| HankMoody | Oh I'm not complaining, other than (now previously) not being able to stream games. I agree Flash has needed to be taken out and shot in the head a long time ago. | 16:20 |
| Eva_ | Now the network has finished. But I can not find root shell in the recovery menu. | 16:21 |
| ioria | Eva_, just 'root' | 16:21 |
| Eva_ | OK. | 16:22 |
| Eva_ | Done. And what should I do now? | 16:22 |
| ioria | Eva_, better to cd in you home, because now you are root, pay attention of what you type ... cd /home/eva or what is your username | 16:23 |
| Eva_ | I have got a prompter on the bottom of the screen. But I dont know what to write there. The row is: root@eva-HP-Pavillion-17-Notebook-PC:~# | 16:24 |
| ioria | Eva_, pwd ? | 16:24 |
| Eva_ | Sorry? | 16:25 |
| ioria | Eva_, pwd | 16:25 |
| Eva_ | What does that mean pwd? | 16:25 |
| ioria | Eva_, type pwd | 16:25 |
| Eva_ | :-D OK, done. | 16:25 |

| kang0 | anddam | 16:34 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: a line written xxx ? | 16:34 |
| ioria | Eva_, very good, now you have a shell and have write permission : can you resume your issue ? you interrupted an upgrade ? | 16:34 |
| Al3xG0 | Is there any command that identifies the XXX line in a file and cuts away from it? | 16:34 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: XXX being a number? | 16:35 |
| Al3xG0 | EriC^^ no text | 16:35 |
| ducasse | kang0: for the 100th time, this channel is for ubuntu support. if you still want general linux-related discussion, try ##linux or #ubuntu-offtopic | 16:35 |
| anddam | Al3xG0: not a command specific, you'll use one of the text processor | 16:35 |
| Al3xG0 | he is word XXX in file cut | 16:35 |
| Al3xG0 | after XXX | 16:35 |
| Eva_ | Thank you ioria! Exactly what should I type in order to resume my interrupted upgrade? | 16:35 |
| anddam | Al3xG0: grep -v comes to mind, or sed, or awk | 16:35 |
| anddam | Al3xG0: what you said isn't very clear | 16:36 |
| ioria | Eva_, we can start with : dpkg --configure -a | 16:36 |
| MonkeyDust | Al3xG0 is this useful http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22792744/should-i-use-cut-or-awk-to-extract-fields-and-field-substrings | 16:36 |

| Al3xG0 | MonkeyDust is count lengh | 16:38 |
| Al3xG0 | ;/ | 16:38 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: an easy way that comes to mind is grep -A10000000 XXX /file (or put a larger number if needed) | 16:38 |
| Al3xG0 | He does not tell which line is the word XXX. | 16:39 |
| Al3xG0 | EriC^^ no have line number bro... | 16:39 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: type wc -l /file | 16:39 |
| anddam | Al3xG0: why don't you get it? | 16:39 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: the 100000 is just the number of lines to grab after XXX , just make it large enough that it gets it all | 16:39 |
| Al3xG0 | EriC^^ no haver number line i have word | 16:40 |
| anddam | Al3xG0: it's difficult to understand what you are trying to say | 16:40 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: yes, type "wc -l /path/to/file" | 16:40 |
| EriC^^ | what does it say? | 16:40 |
| anddam | EriC^^: I think he doesn't want text after the match | 16:41 |
| anddam | he wants to truncate a file up to a certain word (that likely means the first occurence) | 16:41 |
| Eva_ | Many thanks ioria! Now lots of things happened! :-) Finally I have got a question about "control": (Y/I/N/O/C/D/Z) [default=N] | 16:41 |
| Eva_ | Should I just press Enter? | 16:41 |
| ioria | Eva_, it's not clear to me, but in this cases better default ! aka press enter | 16:42 |
| Al3xG0 | wc -l b.txt | 16:42 |
| Al3xG0 | 18724393 b.txt | 16:42 |
| Eva_ | OK. | 16:42 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: what are you trying to do? give a small example | 16:42 |
| Al3xG0 | i need get after badboytraining.biz | 16:43 |
| Al3xG0 | only ... | 16:43 |
| Al3xG0 | i no have line badboytraining.biz | 16:43 |
| Al3xG0 | in file. ... | 16:43 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: try "grep -A200000000 badboytraining.biz /path/to/file" | 16:43 |
| Al3xG0 | How could you find the line of badboytraining.biz for file. | 16:43 |
| Al3xG0 | grep -A200000000 badboytraining.biz b.txt | 16:44 |
| Al3xG0 | Binary file b.txt matches | 16:44 |
| Al3xG0 | If I know the word line I could use split | 16:45 |
| Al3xG0 | How could he know the word line | 16:45 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: "cat -n b.txt | grep badboytraining.biz" | 16:45 |
| Al3xG0 | # cat -n b.txt | grep badboytraining.biz | 16:45 |
| Al3xG0 | Binary file (standard input) matches | 16:45 |
| Al3xG0 | lol | 16:45 |
| EriC^^ | try with grep -a | 16:46 |
| Al3xG0 | # cat -n b.txt | grep -a badboytraining.biz | 16:46 |
| Al3xG0 | 625737 badboytraining.biz | 16:46 |

| tekmanx | Anyone here using Ubuntu Core/Snap on Raspberry Pi? | 16:54 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: np | 16:55 |
| OerHeks | tekmanx, ask your real question and find out, 'anyone' questions are hardly answered here. | 16:56 |
| vgoodguy | is there any simpler way to setup file sharing between linux machines on same network? | 16:56 |
| vgoodguy | p.s I already checked the google and the sols were not anyway near simple. | 16:56 |
| wedgie | vgoodguy: vgoodguy nfs is probably the simplest | 16:57 |
| tekmanx | Where do you create your ssh keys for Ubuntu Core/Snap? | 16:57 |
| tekmanx | This is confusing.. | 16:57 |
| fakam | Hello, besides auto-hiding the unity launcher, is there a way to make it so games, apps and such go over the unity launcher? | 16:57 |
| OerHeks | tekmanx, to login a fresh install ?? | 16:57 |
| tekmanx | OerHeks: Yes. I have an Ubuntu SSO account.. | 16:58 |
| tekmanx | Where do I create a key to upload it there? | 16:58 |
| tekmanx | They have very vague. documentation on this. | 16:58 |
| vgoodguy | wedgie, does in come with gui? | 16:58 |
| wiggmpk | Can anyone shed some light on to why nvidia-37x drivers depend on any Unity components whatsoever? | 16:58 |
| OerHeks | tekmanx, not upload, import ( download ) see step 2 https://developer.ubuntu.com/core/get-started/raspberry-pi-2-3 | 16:58 |
| tekmanx | OerHeks: I've been at step two for about an hour :| | 16:59 |
| tekmanx | I've been on the page it referred too.. it's not so clear.. | 17:00 |
| as__ | hi, I still need to reset my password through recovery mode (unless you suggest a different approach). I have unlocked the disc and I have twice tried this http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword , but the new password does not work... tips welcomed | 17:00 |
| HankMoody | xangua: I an all not too unexpected twist I can't seem to get fresh player to work for me. I ran all the command lines to get it installed and edited the config file, restarted the browser and I'm still gettin the endless spinning wheel. | 17:00 |
| tekmanx | OerHeks: Have you looked at those steps? | 17:00 |
| wedgie | vgoodguy: uh, dont know. i barely use gui for anything. most of my linux boxes dont have any. | 17:00 |
| Psychonaut | vgoodguy, SSHFS https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs | 17:01 |
| as__ | if my username is dexter i have to execute passwd dexter, right? | 17:01 |
| tekmanx | OerHeks: The instructions read: | 17:02 |
| tekmanx | The first step involves creating a set of RSA keys for use in authentication. This should be done on the client. | 17:02 |
| tekmanx | But the client isn't configured yet.. | 17:02 |
| tekmanx | lol | 17:02 |
| tekmanx | You can't do anything on the client unless you have a key... | 17:02 |
| wedgie | as__: yes, otherwise it defaults to the current user (orob root) | 17:02 |
| AionNL | yes, if you run as root @as__ then yes, you can also try changing the root password and then login as root after rebooting | 17:02 |
| as__ | wedgie: then I dont know what im doing wrong, are these isntructions http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword updated for 16.10? | 17:02 |
| Al3xG0 | What maximum limit does a server support from open connections? | 17:03 |
| Eva_ | Now the updating finally is finished. I have got error messages for fglrx and fglrx-amdcccle. Is that anyting I should care about? And how should I now start the graphical Ubuntu system from the text mode? | 17:03 |
| Al3xG0 | EriC^^ What maximum limit does a server support from open connections? | 17:03 |
| ioria | Eva_, run apt-get update | 17:03 |
| Al3xG0 | have limit kernel? | 17:03 |
| AionNL | as__ : make sure you have that mounting command sorted , like that you can verify you see your home dirs. if not you are resetting it in the wrong environment | 17:03 |
| Eva_ | Should I type: apt-get update? | 17:04 |
| ioria | Eva_, yes | 17:04 |
| Eva_ | OK. I have got lots of error messages. | 17:04 |
| ioria | Eva_, ping www.google.com | 17:05 |
| EriC^^ | Al3xG0: no idea, ulimit -a lists some stuff related i think | 17:05 |
| Eva_ | I gues because there is no internet connection on that computer. | 17:05 |
| tekmanx | OerHeks: ? | 17:05 |
| OerHeks | tekmanx, you would need an other (ubuntu) machine to prepare keys, i guess | 17:05 |
| ioria | Eva_, we need connection to upgrade | 17:05 |
| Eva_ | OK. | 17:05 |
| tekmanx | OerHeks: See what I mean now? It's not clear... | 17:05 |

| wedgie | as__: then unless you know your old password you're hosed. restore from backup time | 17:31 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ I suggest not enryting /home or anything like that unless know password etc decypriton key etc for sure | 17:31 |
| vidarlo | I have a TT4650 DVB device. It worked perfectly in 16.04.02 _before_ I installed ubuntu on a new drive. | 17:32 |
| vidarlo | and it works perfectly on OpenSuSE | 17:32 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ wedgie mgiht be some way to crack the encryption of the /home but that wont be easy | 17:32 |
| vidarlo | however, when loading the appropriate modules, nothing happens with ubuntu reinstalled | 17:32 |
| vidarlo | have tried with 4.4.0-62 and -59 | 17:32 |
| as__ | reinstalling time... | 17:32 |
| wedgie | SebthreeBQM10HD: better off trying to crack old password to recover the key | 17:32 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ don't do a encrypted home | 17:32 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ unless you have proper valid reason to have tha tencrypted | 17:33 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | that's my advice | 17:33 |
| michaldybczak | Night_, tried to use "cd ~ && wget -O - --no-check-certificate "https://www.dropbox.com/download?plat=lnx.x86_64" | tar xzf -" and moved it a little bit further, but still it couldn't get it through http so my download is still failing | 17:33 |
| vidarlo | wedgie: if you have unencrypted swap, simply grep for the key in swap... :D | 17:33 |
| wedgie | as__: and if you do, write down the key when it prompts you to do so | 17:33 |
| as__ | :D wedgie | 17:33 |
| as__ | is it a good idea to copy all hidden files (.mozilla for example) into a brand new notebook? | 17:34 |
| wedgie | as__: note that you could just create another user and continue using the current install | 17:34 |
| === fotografo is now known as fotografoLombard | ||
| wedgie | you just eont be able to get your files back | 17:34 |
| vidarlo | as__: depends, I have used the same ~ since approx 2000 | 17:35 |
| as__ | vidarlo: what is ~? | 17:35 |
| Kirch | I've receiving 408 request timeout problem in almost every site I've tried to access. I've tested on Chromium and Opera, but the problem persists. I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 and there is nothing on the internet about it. | 17:35 |
| vidarlo | as__: home folder | 17:35 |
| as__ | wedgie: if those are the options I will reinstall | 17:35 |
| b100s | OerHeks, i created special efi partition: in article was recomendation to create /boot/efi with fat32 and mark it as boot, but ubuntu 16.04 installer doesnt give me abiliti to mark it as bootable but was special type in selection menu of fs-types - efi partiton; so.. looks likes ok, waiting for done installation; but one question: should i create /boot partition? | 17:36 |
| as__ | regarding encryption: is there a maximum size for filenames? 5 hours ago, as I was copying all my data into the new notebook some files could not be copied, because the filenames were too long. That neve rhappened to me | 17:36 |
| as__ | but I never encrypted before | 17:37 |

| Eva__ | ioria, now I have connected my 4G modem to my Ubuntu computer | 17:38 |
| Eva__ | The screen on Ubuntu computer is black. | 17:39 |
| ioria | Eva_, ok, press 'esc'-> grub -> advanced oprions -> recovery mode | 17:39 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ I think generally reallh long file names, may not be liked by file systems | 17:39 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | really long | 17:39 |
| b100s | can be a problem in Unetbootin | 17:40 |
| b100s | going to create new usb-stick | 17:40 |
| Eva__ | Yess, done¨. | 17:40 |
| ioria | Eva_, network | 17:40 |
| Eva__ | Yes, done. Modem for device at ... succesfully created. ModemManager[895]: <info> Modem: state changed (unknown -> disabled) | 17:42 |
| ioria | Eva_, mmm, root | 17:42 |
| Eva__ | I typed root. Didn´t get any output. | 17:43 |
| ioria | Eva_, you're already at a prompt ? | 17:43 |
| Eva__ | By the way I can see this message: Invalid mobile equipment error code: 50 | 17:43 |
| Kirch | Anyone have a reference to solve my problem? | 17:43 |

| SebthreeBQM10HD | hi | 17:45 |
| as__ | how many of you run an encrypted home dir? | 17:45 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ not that many people, mostly paranoid people | 17:45 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ what you got to hide ? | 17:45 |
| ioria | Eva_, what you mean 'lost' ? | 17:46 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, sudo for root I had to re join here so | 17:46 |
| Eva__ | I pressed finally Ctrl-C. | 17:46 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | !sudo | 17:46 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !pkexec (for older releases: !gksu and !kdesudo). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 17:46 |
| Eva__ | Now I have got the graphical interface. | 17:46 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, ctrl c will stop whaever is running in terminal yes | 17:46 |
| ioria | Eva_, that is 'resume' i guess | 17:47 |
| Eva__ | Should I try to restart the computer once again and press ctrl-shift-f1? | 17:47 |
| ioria | Eva_, if you can't login in gui or in console, yes | 17:47 |
| ioria | Eva_, and you still need the recovery mode to work | 17:48 |
| ioria | Eva_, but if you have a livecd, we can try from there | 17:49 |
| Eva__ | OK, now I have restarted the computer. Should I choose the recovery mode once again? | 17:50 |
| ioria | Eva_, yes | 17:51 |
| Eva__ | OK, done. Should I now choose network again? | 17:51 |
| ioria | Eva_, yes | 17:52 |
| ioria | Eva_, i thin the issue is your device | 17:52 |
| Eva__ | I have got the same messages. The screen stopped writing new messages after this one: ModemManager[832]: <info> Modem: state changed (unknown -> disabled) | 17:54 |
| as__ | help me understand this: if I encrypt the ssd wheren 16.10 is installed, encrypting a home dir is a bit ridiculous, right? | 17:54 |
| Eva__ | There is no prompter on the bottom of the screen. | 17:54 |
| ioria | Eva_, ok, it's not working | 17:54 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, what are you trying to do ? | 17:56 |
| ioria | SebthreeBQM10HD, we need connection on recovery mode | 17:56 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, I think the way to do it is a ethernet cable if an do tha, or sot it out | 17:56 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, wirelss could be difficcul to configure eiher way | 17:57 |
| ioria | SebthreeBQM10HD, no ethernet cable available | 17:57 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ by default for Ubunu, /home would be in the / | 17:57 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ however I think the whole hard disk needs to be encrypted really, not just /home or that can kind of deafer the piont of encryption, I remember reeading something online abou that awhile ago | 17:58 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ basically its not as secure as people may think when only /home is encrypted | 17:58 |
| ioria | Eva_, choose 'root' instead of 'network' and we try to bring it up manually | 17:58 |
| === tarunno is now known as Guest91126 | ||
| === Guest91126 is now known as tarunno_ | ||
| Eva__ | Yes. I am in root. | 17:58 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | as_ still though unless you got something to potentailly hide from the po lice :d, or some critical secret company enterprise business data, or something like that, why encrypt i ? | 17:59 |
| ioria | Eva_, ping 8.8.8.8 | 17:59 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | it | 17:59 |
| Eva__ | I have got lots of "Destination Host Unreachable" | 18:00 |
| ioria | Eva_, yes, run ifconfig | 18:00 |
| Eva__ | Should I interrupt the ping-command first? | 18:01 |
| Eva__ | Its still running. | 18:01 |
| ioria | Eva_, yes | 18:01 |
| Eva__ | With ctrl-c? | 18:01 |
| ioria | Eva_, yes | 18:01 |
| Eva__ | Now I entered ifconfig. | 18:02 |
| ioria | Eva_, what you see ? | 18:02 |
| Eva__ | lots of things ... | 18:02 |
| ioria | Eva_, look at the left side .... those are the interfaces names | 18:02 |
| Eva__ | but nothing I could connect with my 4G modem | 18:02 |
| Eva__ | eth0, lo and wlan0 | 18:03 |
| ioria | Eva_, ifconfig eth0 up see what it says | 18:05 |
| Eva__ | When I typed ifconfig eth0 up, I didn´t get any output. | 18:06 |
| ioria | Eva_, you know your modem ip ? run route | 18:07 |
| Eva__ | Sorry, I don´t know the ip for my modem. Route gave this output: Kernel IP routing table .... which information should I look at? | 18:09 |
| ioria | Eva_, a number like 192.168.1.1 | 18:10 |
| Eva__ | I am sorry. I don`t know. Where could I find it? | 18:10 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, route command should get it ging by ioria | 18:11 |
| ioria | Eva_, so the 'route' output is just ' Kernel IP routing table' ? and nothing else ? | 18:11 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, did you run the route command ? | 18:12 |
| Eva__ | No, no. There is a table: Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface | 18:12 |
| ioria | Eva_, and after ? | 18:13 |
| Eva__ | default * 0.0.0.0 U 1002 0 0 eth0 | 18:13 |
| Eva__ | link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 | 18:13 |

| Eva__ | I typed "sudo dhclient eth0". Waiting for output from that command. | 18:15 |
| sachin | Hello, guys. I have a problem. Whenever I try to compile file using "make" command, tab completion does not work. If I have a file named palindrome.c , I'll have to type the name full. | 18:18 |
| CrazyTux | I just installed Lxde DE, but not able to find the option for Lxde during log in. | 18:18 |
| ioria | Eva_, interrupt, then | 18:18 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | CrazyTux, how did you install it ? | 18:18 |
| Eva__ | By Ctrl-C? | 18:18 |
| ioria | Eva_, yes | 18:19 |
| Eva__ | OK, done. | 18:19 |
| ioria | Eva_, sudo dhclient wlan0 | 18:19 |
| CrazyTux | sudo apt-get install lxde | 18:19 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | CrazyTux, make sure it's lubuntu-desktop and not just lxde, for the whole thing, should come up asking what log in screen when that one to. ctral tab or whatever to select, and lxdm is a good one | 18:20 |
| Eva__ | No output from this command either. | 18:20 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | CrazyTux, yep do this then. sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop | 18:20 |
| ioria | Eva_, ping 8.8.8.8 | 18:20 |
| CrazyTux | ok. let me try. | 18:20 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: i think make is used for Makefiles, not .c programs | 18:20 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | crazy l xdm is the log in screen of lxde, and my prefered | 18:20 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | CrazyTux, ^^ | 18:21 |
| Eva__ | Again I get lots of "Destination Host Unreachable". | 18:21 |
| sachin | No actually it works with .c and .cpp too. there | 18:21 |
| ioria | Eva_, then you need a livecd | 18:21 |
| ioria | brb | 18:21 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: not for me! | 18:21 |
| Eva__ | OK. Thank you! | 18:21 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: it says "Nothing to be done for ...c" | 18:21 |
| sachin | there's no hassle to go through "cc filename.c -o executable" | 18:22 |
| Eva__ | brb? | 18:22 |
| sachin | don't use the .c extension. Just file name | 18:22 |
| Eva__ | Should I boot the computer with the Live CD? | 18:22 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: ah i see, without the .c it does compile | 18:22 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, yeah | 18:23 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, can do recvoery stuff and re insttlls with that | 18:23 |
| sachin | yeah, but autocompletion does not work on that stage. | 18:23 |
| Eva__ | Thanks a lot! And thank you all you kind people who took your time to help me! :-) | 18:23 |
| sachin | Is there a workaround for it? | 18:23 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: it's not its intended use though! | 18:23 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: you could make an alias or function | 18:24 |
| sachin | yeah... so I asked for workaround. I am afraid I am not that good at bash scripting. | 18:24 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, ad | 18:24 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, and brb be right back, ioria should be back in a bit in other words back soon | 18:25 |
| nathdwek | Hi, what the latest status to have a working haskell+stack setup working on ubuntu16.10? | 18:25 |
| nathdwek | github says rebuilding from scratch from source should do it, and it did work on another machine some time ago (I don't remember if there was something specific). Now I'm on a fresh 16.10 machine and I can't seem to get past the linking errors. | 18:25 |
| CrazyTux | SebthreeBQM10HD, you also use Lxde? | 18:25 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | CrazyTux, sometimes lxde itself, but mostly just for the log in screen in distros :) | 18:25 |
| CrazyTux | do you prefer it over others? | 18:26 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | CrazyTux, out of the five or so I have tried, I think lxdm is the best | 18:26 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | CrazyTux, just answering that, as your question comes in :D | 18:26 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: hmm 1 sec | 18:26 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | CrazyTux, for an interface though, no not tht keen on lxde | 18:27 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: makeq() { make "${1%%.c}";} | 18:27 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: that should strip the .c at the end and pass it to make | 18:27 |
| sachin | embed in it in .bashrc ? | 18:28 |
| Eva__ | SebthreeBQM10HD thank you for your explanation! :-) | 18:28 |
| EriC^^ | sachin: yes | 18:28 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, where you from ? | 18:28 |
| sachin | let me give it a try! | 18:28 |

| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, du are svensk oh, ok pm me :) | 18:28 |
| vgoodguy | If you gotta chose between an intel ATOM with an SSD or CELERON with eMMC, which one would you go for? | 18:29 |
| Eva__ | Ja, jag är svensk. :) | 18:29 |
| vgoodguy | which one would support lubuntu easly? | 18:29 |
| vgoodguy | If you gotta chose between an intel ATOM with an SSD or CELERON with eMMC, which one would you go for? for LUBUNTU | 18:29 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, thats interesting, since I am half sweed, can chat more in privat message about things like that if you want, would be off topic here | 18:29 |
| vadi | I'm on a fully updated Ubuntu 16.04 system, and when I try to install a .deb file, the gnome software app simply crashes. Is this expected? | 18:30 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | vadi, no that should work | 18:30 |
| ioria | Eva_, if you don't have a livecd, download it again and make a ubs with rufus | 18:30 |
| Eva__ | Thank you ioria, I guess I can download it from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD - is that right? | 18:31 |

| SebthreeBQM10HD | Eva__, tommorow yeah, but certain people would be up for trying to help you more now :) | 18:47 |

| HankMoody | Anyone willing to help me with DRM flash? I already installed fresh player, it's not working. Also tried some guides to no avail. Including one that had been answered with in the past week. | 19:03 |
| tarball | ioria, same error, no such file or directory | 19:03 |
| OerHeks | HankMoody, google chrome does DRM. but flash will soon be dead, as it should be, browsers block the plugin. | 19:04 |
| OerHeks | 64 bit only | 19:04 |
| EriC^^ | wrapash: /msg nickserv sendpass | 19:04 |
| EriC^^ | wrapash: or sendpass <email> maybe | 19:04 |
| tarball | ok, will reinstall | 19:04 |

| ioria | tarball, and it's libreoffice is installed , right ? | 19:04 |
| ioria | tarball, and libreoffice is installed , right ? | 19:05 |
| EriC^^ | tarball: reinstall what? | 19:05 |
| HankMoody | OerHeks: thank you, I know it will be dead soon. Is there any reason you can think why my chrome installation won't do DRM? (nbcsports, foxsportsgo, watchespn, etc.) | 19:05 |
| OerHeks | HankMoody, nope. | 19:05 |
| HankMoody | My chrome is 56.0.2924.87 64 bit | 19:05 |
| tarball | EriC^^, ioria, yes, libre office is installed, I've been opening files in this session..reinstalling it now | 19:05 |

| smhar | I want to have this mostly used with laptops with EFI. since the laptop doesn't have installed, I booted from ubuntu 16.10 live cd | 19:07 |
| EriC^^ | tarball: reinstalling won't help, the problem is a user config issue and anything to do with apt won't touch the user files | 19:08 |
| EriC^^ | smhar: then you'll need an efi partition and a /boot partition | 19:08 |

| bytefire | hi, how do you know which GPU is currently in use? there are two on my laptop - intel (builtin) and nvidia | 20:07 |
| robotti^ | OerHeks: that's how | 20:08 |
| robotti^ | without using nonfree firmware blobs | 20:08 |
| k1l_ | robotti^: that better suits into the #ubuntu-offtopic or ##hardware channe | 20:09 |
| robotti^ | k1l_: ok, thanks! | 20:09 |
| OerHeks | bytefire, driver in use >> lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' # this gives the driver intel/nvidia ( or nouveau) | 20:11 |
| bytefire | OerHeks: cool! | 20:11 |
| bytefire | OerHeks: how do you switch? | 20:13 |
| OerHeks | bytefire, nvidia settings > prime http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/04/switch-intel-nvidia-graphics-ubuntu-16-04/ | 20:14 |

| bytefire | car** | 20:16 |
| bytefire | card | 20:16 |
| ioria | bytefire, for that i think you need the mesa-utils and the glxinfo command | 20:16 |
| bytefire | ioria: right | 20:17 |
| ioria | bytefire, also xrandr --listproviders | 20:17 |
| OerHeks | oh, my bad. | 20:18 |
| OerHeks | i thought in use would be in use. | 20:18 |
| bytefire | ioria: well just got glxinfo. is it "server glx vendor string:" in output? | 20:21 |
| ioria | bytefire, glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer string" | 20:21 |
| bytefire | OerHeks: that's alright because that's also what i wanted to know | 20:21 |
| bytefire | ioria: cool | 20:21 |
| ioria | bytefire, xrandr --listproviders what it says ? | 20:21 |
| bytefire | ioria: xrandr says nvidia which is consistent with glxinfo output | 20:22 |

| UbuntuMaxor | Using wine cuz im to lazy to setup my .rpm | 20:29 |
| UbuntuMaxor | What does wine stand for, people? | 20:29 |
| ducasse | UbuntuMaxor: wine is not an emulator | 20:29 |
| bytefire | ioria: okkay. i guess that answers the question as side effect | 20:29 |
| dh128 | wine is not an emulator | 20:29 |
| UbuntuMaxor | ok | 20:29 |
| k1l_ | UbuntuMaxor: wine is a windows layer. and .rpm is the wrong pacakgeformat for ubuntu | 20:29 |

| k1l_ | UbuntuMaxor: this is for ubuntu help. for generic other other liunx help there is ##linux | 20:31 |

| SchrodingersScat | UbuntuMaxor: guess it's inadyn now | 20:31 |
| UbuntuMaxor | what are the hotkeys for exiting nano? | 20:31 |
| SchrodingersScat | crised: you probably backgrounded a command, and it is now stopped. | 20:31 |
| k1l_ | UbuntuMaxor: ctrl+x | 20:31 |
| UbuntuMaxor | oh | 20:31 |
| SchrodingersScat | UbuntuMaxor: ctrl-x for me. | 20:31 |
| UbuntuMaxor | Thanks. | 20:32 |
| crised | SchrodingersScat: so the program behind it, it's not executing? | 20:32 |
| crised | it's frozen there? | 20:32 |
| SchrodingersScat | crised: hmm, that depends on your line used. Be careful of using &, is this in a URL or similar? | 20:32 |
| crised | SchrodingersScat: nope it's a script, a nodejs program | 20:32 |
| SchrodingersScat | idk about nodejs | 20:33 |
| SchrodingersScat | crised: that's normally what I see in console when something has been backgrounded with & though, normally when I incorrectly don't quote urls, like "https://youtube.com/v?=blahblah&t=120" | 20:33 |

| k1l_ | UbuntuMaxor: ask the wine specialists in #winehq | 20:40 |
| \9 | why would you run steam through wine? steam has native binaries available | 20:40 |
| UbuntuMaxor | bc i want to play windows games | 20:40 |
| ducasse | crised: are you still trying to get the stopped process running, or stop and background a new one? | 20:40 |
| crised | ducasse: I want to run a process in the background | 20:41 |
| ducasse | crised: 'programname &' | 20:41 |
| crised | ducasse: I do that then it stops | 20:42 |
| crised | after pressing enter | 20:42 |
| w9qbj | crised, that process may need input from stdin | 20:42 |
| crised | w9qbj: it does | 20:43 |
| w9qbj | crised, then the input is effectively <EOF> you may need to redirect the input from a file | 20:43 |
| UbuntuMaxor | Welp winehq is COMPLETELY empty | 20:44 |
| k1l_ | !wine | UbuntuMaxor | 20:44 |

| UbuntuMaxor | so is there any chance anyone here can help me with my problem | 20:44 |
| UbuntuMaxor | it concerns running steam through wine | 20:45 |
| ducasse | UbuntuMaxor: i suggest you wait for it to be non-empty | 20:45 |
| koffeinfriedhof | UbuntuMaxor: If you want to play windows games, why don't you use Windows? Ubuntu is not a windows-replacement app... | 20:46 |
| k1l_ | UbuntuMaxor: the channel is not empty. and you are in there | 20:46 |
| UbuntuMaxor | no ones bothering to say anything | 20:46 |
| SchrodingersScat | UbuntuMaxor: you're trying to do dns through noip? | 20:47 |
| UbuntuMaxor | forget the noip problem | 20:47 |
| SchrodingersScat | then yes, idk what you're doing, maybe you need to reiterate your goals | 20:47 |
| ioria | UbuntuMaxor, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam/Wine | 20:48 |
| k1l_ | UbuntuMaxor: ask the specialists at #winehq, maybe it takes some time. but do look at the wine database in the meantime | 20:48 |
| SchrodingersScat | yeah, the wine database pages are helpful, should get you started. | 20:48 |

| adebg | pressed enter accidentally... | 21:04 |
| adebg | I have a major support problem but boot-ubuntu is empty. | 21:05 |
| adebg | Anyone who would be so kind as to listen to it? | 21:05 |
| k1l_ | !details | 21:06 |
| ubottu | 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. | 21:06 |
| sherman_ | who has to own ~/.config/hexchat? root or user? | 21:06 |
| k1l_ | sherman_: no | 21:06 |
| k1l_ | sherman_: dont do stuff as root in your home | 21:07 |
| sherman_ | so user, so permissions are right | 21:07 |
| adebg | Bot, that wasn't my question. My question is: how do I boot my computer and access my OS? | 21:07 |
| k1l_ | sherman_: ls -al .config/hexchat/ | nc termbin.com 9999 | 21:07 |
| OerHeks | adebg, that sounds more like a question | 21:08 |
| UbuntuMaxor | how can i Install mimeo | 21:08 |
| OerHeks | adebg, hold shift @ boot, grub menu appears, and choose | 21:08 |
| k1l_ | adebg: what did you do? what do you see as error? | 21:08 |
| UbuntuMaxor | i need it for a steam wrapper fsr | 21:08 |
| adebg | This problem began when I upgraded Debian Jessie to Stretch. Broke grub. Yes I know it's not ubuntu but I used ubuntu boot repair (inside unetboot) to boot into my computer again. | 21:08 |
| adebg | Boot repair did not work. | 21:08 |
| sherman_ | k1l_, http://termbin.com/kly6 | 21:08 |
| adebg | It said it did, but it did not. | 21:09 |
| OerHeks | adebg, wrong channel, join #debian | 21:09 |
| k1l_ | sherman_: see all that root stuff? you did copy that as root | 21:09 |
| sherman_ | k1l_, sorry | 21:09 |
| k1l_ | sherman_: dont need to be sorry, you are messing up your system | 21:09 |
| adebg | But debian wouldn't know what to do... boot repair has further messed up my filesystem. It's SUPPOSED to work with debian. | 21:10 |
| sherman_ | so now I have to recursively change permissions to sherman:sherman, right? | 21:10 |
| k1l_ | sherman_: sudo chown -R sherman:sherman .config/hexchat/ | 21:10 |
| tarball | as I also wrote shortly before, I cant open libreoffice. I reinstalled it, removed config file, but still no avail | 21:10 |
| sherman_ | thanks a lot k1l_ | 21:11 |
| OerHeks | adebg, you haven't joined #debian at all ..3 | 21:11 |
| lerner | my main partition is a crypt-luks one. in the old days I used to have ext4 as primary partitions and given that 5% of its size were reserved for emergencies, reduce that to 1% (we are talking about 1TB HDD). does crypt-luks also reserve 5% of the blocks for emergencies? how do I reduce its value? | 21:17 |
| ThePi | Hi, I am Ubuntu 16.04 ....quite often when playing minecraft, I get an entire system freeze. I am unable to switch to tty terminals to kill the process or anything like that, and I must hard-reboot. | 21:17 |
| ThePi | *I am on | 21:17 |
| k1l_ | ThePi: look at the /var/log/ for the syslog and Xorg logs from before the reboot to see what the issue is | 21:18 |
| Homely_Girl | k1l_, I made a note of when my other password is required, is now a good time? :) | 21:20 |
| k1l_ | Homely_Girl: just ask, others can help too :) | 21:21 |
| Homely_Girl | Hi there, is there a way I can change the password to my "login keyring"? | 21:22 |
| === james is now known as Guest97393 | ||
| k1l_ | Homely_Girl: open "seahorse" then right click on passwords:login and select change password | 21:23 |
| ThePi | k1l_: I don't see anytihng useful in syslog, and in XORG, i see this NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "NULL" as the very last line. Nothing else seems useful | 21:23 |
| Homely_Girl | k1l_, Thanks | 21:25 |
| lerner | where do I ask about crypt-luks? | 21:27 |
| Homely_Girl | k1l_, All sorted, thank you. | 21:27 |
| Zoom | Does anyone have any experience cross-compiling packages for arm here? | 21:31 |
| helpmeh | hi i -rm dpkg | 21:32 |
| anddam | I could use a word of advise about unicode support in terminal, on my local system works fine, when I ssh into a remote ubuntu system, same 16.04 I get wrong glyphs in place of "odd" characters | 21:32 |
| helpmeh | how do i make a fedora bootable usb | 21:32 |
| helpmeh | my ubuntu is broken :( | 21:32 |
| anddam | helpmeh: is something wrong with #fedora? | 21:33 |
| \9 | !fedora | 21:33 |
| ubottu | 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) | 21:33 |
| \9 | meh that's not very useful | 21:33 |
| helpmeh | i have ubuntu | 21:33 |
| \9 | helpmeh: if you care to explain your problem with ubuntu we might be able to help with that | 21:33 |
| anddam | helpmeh: that's not a point relevant to your question | 21:34 |
| Zoom | I'v installed gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi and downloaded the source for the package. But I get the Unmet Dependencies error when compiling, so I tried 'apt-get build-dep -a armhf MYLIB' but it says the dependencies "are not installable" | 21:34 |
| anddam | by the same reasoning I could be asking about my car's engine, since I have ubuntu | 21:34 |
| Zoom | So, how to get those dependencies for cross-compilation? | 21:34 |
| OerHeks | helpmeh, how in the world would you remove dpkg 'by accident'? ( you have been here before with this odd situation) | 21:34 |
| lerner | is synaptic no longer in use? | 21:35 |
| OerHeks | lerner, sure it is, not standard installed iirc | 21:35 |
| \9 | lerner: it still exists, but isn't provided by default afaik | 21:35 |
| lerner | should I no use it anymore? whats being used nowadays? | 21:36 |
| helpmeh | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (100) THIS IS MY PROBLEM | 21:36 |
| \9 | lerner: if you like synaptic, of course you can still use it | 21:36 |
| helpmeh | I -RM DPKG BY ACCIDENT :( | 21:36 |
| OerHeks | lerner, that is up to you, 16.04 uses apt. ( previously apt-get ) | 21:36 |
| \9 | helpmeh: that just says that there was a problem | 21:37 |
| glache | hihi | 21:37 |
| k1l_ | lerner: synaptic is not preinstalled since years now. you can still use it if you like after reinstall | 21:37 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: can you put the full output on paste.ubuntu.com and link that here? | 21:38 |
| helpmeh | how do i do thar? | 21:38 |
| OerHeks | helpmeh, if you install Fedora,m don't wipe yum :-D | 21:38 |
| helpmeh | lol | 21:38 |
| \9 | go to http://paste.ubuntu.com and put the output there | 21:39 |
| helpmeh | i can't even make the boot usb as apt-install dosent work | 21:39 |
| \9 | then click "Paste!" and pass the link here | 21:39 |
| helpmeh | yeh do i ls something? | 21:39 |
| \9 | no, you paste the context of the "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (100)" | 21:40 |
| anddam | what does "-rm" mean anyway? | 21:41 |
| Sir_Andrei | Hi, ppl, i have a problem, I've deleted a file (fs ext4), i've searched in Google, but all options i've found makes me recover ALL files in the fs, that's stupid, cause i know in what folder the file was, there is a program to recover just that file? | 21:41 |
| k1l_ | if you really removed dpkg manually (why ever you want to do that anyway) you still can get dpkg back from manually loading the the package and extract that | 21:41 |
| k1l_ | but all that removed dpkg and load fedora stuff doesnt make any sense | 21:42 |
| ChunkzZ | how do I install an older version of kodi on ubuntu 16.04? it's been updated to 17 but I want to install 16...? | 21:42 |
| helpmeh | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23977047/ | 21:42 |
| helpmeh | i have manually extracted it still dosen't work | 21:42 |
| anddam | Sir_Andrei: some would argue it was stupid deleting it in first place, likely the program you use will let you cherry-pick the files to recover | 21:42 |
| helpmeh | i just want to make a fedore usb and delete ubuntu :( | 21:43 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: how did you remove dpkg | 21:43 |
| anddam | k1l_: what I don't get is the leading dash in "-rm" | 21:43 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: use dd with the iso image, | 21:43 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: "ls -la /usr/bin/dpkg | nc termbin.com 9999" | 21:43 |
| anddam | like it's two short options | 21:43 |
| Sir_Andrei | anddam, well, it was a stupid delete, no doubt, but, for example, Piriform Recuva in Windows let the user to pick the files when recovering. | 21:43 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: the guys in #fedora can help you understand the parameters requried for the fedora image | 21:43 |
| lerner | i dont know how to add this https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/0.83+nmu1ubuntu1 to my sources | 21:43 |
| ikonia | lerner: why do you want to add that ? | 21:44 |
| anddam | Sir_Andrei: and what program are you using on linux that isn't allowing you to do that? | 21:44 |
| lerner | ikonia, i like synaptic | 21:44 |
| ChunkzZ | anyone? | 21:44 |
| helpmeh | yes but how can i make usb without dpkg ? | 21:44 |
| k1l_ | lerner: you dont add that to your sources | 21:44 |
| ikonia | ChunkzZ: anyone what | 21:44 |
| Sir_Andrei | testdisk. | 21:44 |
| \9 | lerner: just apt install that | 21:44 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: you don't need dpkg | 21:44 |
| OerHeks | ChunkzZ, ubuntu 16.04 gives kodi 15. and https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/ubuntu/ppa has only 16 for wily ... | 21:44 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: I just told you use dd | 21:44 |
| ChunkzZ | OerHeks, what does that mean? | 21:45 |
| anddam | Sir_Andrei: sure it's not photorec instead? testdisk is for partition tables | 21:45 |
| k1l_ | lerner: make sure universe is activated. then install synaptic | 21:45 |
| OerHeks | ChunkzZ, no kodi 16 for 16.04 | 21:45 |
| helpmeh | ls: cannot access '/usr/bin/dpkg': No such file or directory Use netcat. | 21:45 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: yes, you said that | 21:45 |
| Sir_Andrei | Well, testdisk is the package... | 21:45 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: just use dd to make the image | 21:45 |
| Sir_Andrei | Yeah, photorec. | 21:45 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: the guys in #fedora can help you with the parameters | 21:45 |
| \9 | helpmeh: how did you remove dpkg? with rm? | 21:45 |
| WeiJunLi | what a soft lockup bug really is? | 21:45 |
| helpmeh | yes | 21:45 |
| ChunkzZ | OerHeks, really?! | 21:46 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: so do you want to fix your ubuntu now? or just make a fedora and delete ubuntu? | 21:46 |
| \9 | helpmeh: so putting dpkg back in would fix it | 21:46 |
| OerHeks | ChunkzZ, if you find a way, let us know. | 21:47 |
| helpmeh | well i would like to fix it :( | 21:47 |
| ChunkzZ | OerHeks, wish I never upgraded now :( | 21:47 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: because i dont want to waste effort for this if you trash that anyway. you make it hard enough to support you anyway | 21:47 |
| helpmeh | i have dpkg_1.18.4ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb | 21:47 |
| lerner | why do you use apt to install things instead of synaptic? isnt synaptic easier? | 21:48 |
| k1l_ | lerner: what? | 21:48 |
| ikonia | lerner: use software center then | 21:48 |
| ikonia | lerner: | 21:48 |
| helpmeh | my software center dosen't work | 21:48 |
| OerHeks | lerner, it is a choise. | 21:48 |
| \9 | lerner: i find using the command line faster than clicking through menus | 21:48 |
| k1l_ | lerner: you dont need 12 programs preinstalled. the choice is apt or software center. the rest can be installed from the repo. so install what you need | 21:49 |
| \9 | lerner: if you want to use synaptic, just install synaptic and you have it | 21:49 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: ar x dpkg*.deb data.tar.gz | 21:49 |
| blueking | mkisofs still on apt-get thing ? | 21:50 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: then "tar xfvz data.tar.gz ./usr/bin/dpkg" | 21:50 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: then "sudo cp ./usr/bin/dpkg /usr/bin/" | 21:50 |
| k1l_ | blueking: apt is just a program to handle the ubuntu repos. so you ask if mkisofs is in the repos? | 21:50 |
| blueking | yes | 21:51 |
| helpmeh | i just get > | 21:51 |
| \9 | blueking: it appears that it's in genisoimage | 21:51 |
| lsnestest | I'm having a weird issue. I am using X happily (running in irc in chrome), but when I go to the command line and type: xterm, I get: xterm: Xt error: Can't open display: 127.0.0.1:0.0 | 21:51 |
| \9 | !info genisoimage | 21:51 |
| ubottu | genisoimage (source: cdrkit): Creates ISO-9660 CD-ROM filesystem images. In component main, is optional. Version 9:1.1.11-3ubuntu1 (yakkety), package size 316 kB, installed size 1524 kB | 21:51 |
| k1l_ | !info genisoimage | blueking | 21:51 |
| ubottu | blueking: please see above | 21:51 |
| blueking | ok :) | 21:52 |
| \9 | lsnestest: try DISPLAY=:0 xterm | 21:52 |
| lsnestest | display var is broken | 21:52 |
| lsnestest | great thanks | 21:52 |
| helpmeh | terminal is stuch with > | 21:53 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: where | 21:53 |
| krizoek | hi, someone here know about xdmx? i seem to get input/output error when i try to use any application when the screen is being shared. and i did type xhost + on both computers too | 21:53 |
| \9 | k1l_: unenclosed brace i guess | 21:53 |
| \9 | er | 21:53 |
| \9 | quote | 21:53 |
| heari | hi guys, I am looking for information about emacs to gnu-emacs website. I am trying to use some shortkeys like 'M-f' 'M-a' 'M-<'. but I dont understand what is M mean in this shortkeys. | 21:53 |
| \9 | which suggests he copy/pasted the quotes | 21:53 |
| krizoek | im using this: startx -- /usr/bin/Xdmx :1 +xinerama -display :0.0 -display localhost:10.0 -norender -ignorebadfontpaths | 21:53 |
| \9 | and left one out | 21:53 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: details matter a lot. "my car is broken" doesnt help the mechanic to know what is wrong, neither | 21:53 |
| blueking | genisoimage can be used for BD iso too ? | 21:54 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: make sure you dont copy the " but just what is inside the " " | 21:54 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: you can stop the command with ctrl+c | 21:54 |
| \9 | helpmeh: press ctrl+d to get out | 21:54 |
| \9 | er ctrl+c | 21:54 |
| helpmeh | i still have Could not exec dpkg! E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (100) | 21:55 |
| \9 | then you did not follow the instructions | 21:55 |
| nointerface | Hello everyone, I am here | 21:55 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: stop making more mess. follow the clear instructions and report details if the suceed or give errors. | 21:55 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: ls -la /usr/bin/dpkg | 21:56 |
| ikonia | please show me the output of that command | 21:56 |
| \9 | nointerface: hello, this is ubuntu support | 21:56 |
| blueking | k1l_ what I am going to use this iso tool are to make iso from bd folder/files | 21:56 |
| nointerface | Hello ubuntu support, how are you doing? | 21:57 |
| \9 | nointerface: we are doing fine. do you have an issue with ubuntu? banter is at #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:58 |
| blueking | k1l_ from CLI (no gui on this ubuntu machine) | 21:58 |
| helpmeh | ls: cannot access '/usr/bin/dpkg': No such file or directory | 21:58 |
| nointerface | As a matter of fact, I do. I am wondering whether or not it is possible for me to the whole ubuntu? | 21:58 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: then you didn't follow the instructions correctly | 21:58 |
| ikonia | helpmeh: the binary is still not there | 21:58 |
| helpmeh | i copy pasted ffs | 21:58 |
| nointerface | If you could help me out with that, that'd be great | 21:59 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: please copy all the terminal commands and output you did now to paste.ubuntu.com and link it here | 21:59 |
| \9 | nointerface: sorry, is it possuble for you to do what? "to the whole ubuntu" doesn't make sense | 21:59 |
| OerHeks | nointerface, possible to do what? | 21:59 |
| nointerface | I want to the whole ubuntu | 22:00 |
| nointerface | Is this possible? | 22:00 |
| wedgie | yes | 22:00 |
| nointerface | What's the command? | 22:00 |
| wedgie | the whole ubunto or no ubuntu | 22:00 |
| k1l_ | nointerface: you are missing a verb | 22:00 |
| nointerface | Oh, I am sorry | 22:00 |
| helpmeh | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23977154/ | 22:00 |
| nointerface | I want to DELETE the whole ubuntu | 22:01 |
| nointerface | Is this possible? | 22:01 |
| nointerface | preferably with a simple command in the terminal | 22:01 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: see, that is the wrong commands | 22:01 |
| helpmeh | :( | 22:01 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: so we make that step by step now and i need you to show the full output everytime on paste.ubuntu.com to make sure it worked. | 22:02 |
| ikonia | nointerface: you can't delete it from the terminal you're running ubuntu from | 22:02 |
| \9 | nointerface: you can't delete the running operating system. you need to use a live cd | 22:02 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: start with "ar x dpkg*.deb data.tar.gz" and show the output please | 22:02 |
| ikonia | nointerface: you'll need to delete it properly from an external boot | 22:02 |
| \9 | nointerface: or some other system repair tool | 22:02 |
| nointerface | Are you sure? There was some command that made me delete the root folder | 22:02 |
| nointerface | I've forgotten it, but I am pretty sure it exists? | 22:03 |
| helpmeh | there is o output | 22:03 |
| helpmeh | no* | 22:03 |
| ikonia | nointerface: no | 22:03 |
| k1l_ | nointerface: thats not working | 22:03 |
| \9 | nointerface: that's not going to work | 22:03 |
| ikonia | nointerface: deleting the root folder, is not deleting ubuntu | 22:03 |
| \9 | you'll just end up with a broken OS | 22:03 |
| nointerface | Oh | 22:03 |
| k1l_ | nointerface: if you want to delete ubuntu remove the partitions and install another boot loader | 22:03 |
| nointerface | I'm sorry for wasting your time. | 22:03 |
| ikonia | you're not wasting our time | 22:03 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: ok, now: tar xfvz data.tar.gz ./usr/bin/dpkg | 22:03 |
| ikonia | it's a reasonable question | 22:03 |
| helpmeh | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23977185/ | 22:04 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: ok, now: sudo cp ./usr/bin/dpkg /usr/bin/ | 22:05 |
| helpmeh | no output | 22:05 |
| nointerface | How do I join a BBS network? | 22:05 |
| blueking | k1l_ ok got it now mkisofs :) | 22:05 |
| ikonia | nointerface: what do you mean ? | 22:05 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: "ls -la /usr/bin/dpkg | nc termbin.com 9999" | 22:05 |
| nointerface | like, for example, I want to connect to a BBS. How is this possible? | 22:06 |
| ikonia | can you give an example of what you're trying to do | 22:06 |
| ikonia | nointerface: what do you mean "connect to a BBS" | 22:06 |
| helpmeh | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23977200/ | 22:06 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade | 22:07 |
| nointerface | A friend wants me to join his BBS. He says to use telnet and connect to the address on port 23 | 22:07 |
| ikonia | nointerface: so exactly that then telnet $address 23 | 22:07 |
| nointerface | oh, thanks | 22:07 |
| nointerface | One last question guys | 22:07 |
| nointerface | Is 2017 the year of the Linux desktop? | 22:07 |
| ikonia | nointerface: no | 22:08 |
| ikonia | nointerface: please don't troll | 22:08 |
| nointerface | i'm sorry goodbye | 22:08 |

| dueyfinster | I just tried to visit https://unity.ubuntu.com/mir/ and it seems it's been defaced? | 22:09 |
| ikonia | dueyfinster: yup, looks like it's been compromised | 22:10 |
| OerHeks | dueyfinster, try https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mir | 22:10 |
| helpmeh | very slow | 22:10 |
| \9 | dueyfinster: looks like a bad day for canonical... that's out of our hands | 22:10 |

| k1l_ | helpmeh: so dpkg is fixed now. | 22:11 |
| helpmeh | its still updating | 22:11 |
| helpmeh | progress 15% | 22:12 |
| k1l_ | dueyfinster: i dont think its defaced. the hacking there is usually named the code work, not in the meaning of cracking | 22:12 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: let it run. after that you can use your ubuntu normally again | 22:13 |
| helpmeh | thank you | 22:13 |
| dueyfinster | k1l_: perhaps yeah | 22:14 |
| coolguy | Is it true that hacking doesn't exist anymore? | 22:14 |
| ikonia | coolguy: not a real question and offtopic | 22:14 |
| OerHeks | 24th there is chance to test site usability! https://twitter.com/Canonical/status/829752165182894081 | 22:14 |
| bazhang | coolguy, thats not topical here | 22:14 |
| k1l_ | coolguy: what about you stop joining with different nicknames in here and stop trolling? | 22:14 |

| helpmeh | ive had it long time | 22:17 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: we can fix that when apt is doen | 22:18 |

| n00b | hello | 22:29 |

| Guest26005 | please help, i think i've overwritten my partition data | 22:30 |
| ubuntu-mate | hello | 22:30 |
| Guest26005 | i wanted to update from 14.04 to 16.04 | 22:30 |
| Guest26005 | and update failed | 22:30 |
| Guest26005 | then i inserted the ubuntu 16.04 dvd and choose "reuse partition" | 22:31 |
| Guest26005 | assuming that this will keep the old partition data untouched | 22:31 |
| Guest26005 | now the installation failed | 22:31 |
| Guest26005 | i want to backup my /home and /var/www folders | 22:32 |
| helpmeh | progress 76% | 22:32 |
| Guest26005 | is this possible? | 22:32 |
| \9 | Guest26005: assuming it indeed didn't format the partition then yes sure | 22:32 |
| \9 | Guest26005: i never used that option myself so i don't know | 22:32 |
| Guest26005 | how can i find it formatted the partition | 22:32 |
| Guest26005 | ? | 22:32 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: if you installed virtualbox from ubuntu then you need to install the virtualbox-ext-pack package. but wait untill the apt is done | 22:33 |
| \9 | Guest26005: mount the filesystems and see if the data is still there | 22:33 |
| \9 | Guest26005: you can do that from the file manager or manually using the 'mount' command, e.g. mount /dev/sda1 /mnt | 22:33 |
| Guest26005 | each time i upgrade to a new ubuntu version i have troubles | 22:35 |
| Guest26005 | this time was really bad | 22:35 |
| Guest26005 | what if /home was deleted? or the partition formatted? | 22:35 |
| \9 | if it just said "reuse" then it really shouldn't have done that | 22:36 |
| Guest26005 | how can i recover in that case? | 22:36 |
| k1l_ | Guest26005: the updates and upgrades do get automated testings for the original packages. so if your hardware doesnt have special issues or you install 3rd aprty pacakges the upgrades do work | 22:36 |
| \9 | iirc there's a separate "wipe" option | 22:36 |
| H0m3YC7au5 | Guest26005: foremost | 22:36 |
| Guest26005 | \9 i am in grub now, here i have a lot of options: with 4.4.0 ...with 3.13, etc | 22:36 |
| Guest26005 | upstart/recovery, etc | 22:37 |
| helpmeh | broadcom is bad with linux | 22:37 |
| \9 | Guest26005: you should use the installation medium to do this | 22:37 |
| Guest26005 | to mount / ? | 22:37 |
| Lanevall | Hi all, i need some one to ask some questions to, its regarding the "non smooth" feeling of the ubuntu desktop compared to windows :(, iwe been using Linux for about a year and its coming along fine in usage and what i need it to do, the only thing that is bathering me is the smoothness. anyone experienced in this matter? | 22:37 |
| \9 | Guest26005: when you're uncertain about the state of your partitions you definitely shouldn't boot into it | 22:38 |
| Guest26005 | ok. i have kernel panic whatsoever | 22:38 |
| \9 | well that can be expected of a failed install | 22:38 |
| helpmeh | lanevall install gentoo :P | 22:38 |
| \9 | helpmeh: don't be unhelpful | 22:39 |
| Lanevall | is that the only solution? :) | 22:39 |
| bazhang | helpmeh, thats not helpful at all | 22:39 |
| Guest26005 | i was used with fdisk and cfdisk, and now I am little afraid to use the DVD kit..which is more like..windows | 22:39 |
| Guest26005 | and I don't know what it is doing to my partitions really | 22:39 |
| Lanevall | i want to find a solution to my current desktop, not install a new one :) | 22:39 |
| helpmeh | its still stuck in 91 % | 22:40 |
| bazhang | Lanevall, 'smoothness' is very vague | 22:40 |
| bazhang | Lanevall, we need way more details | 22:40 |
| helpmeh | do you have gnome? | 22:40 |
| OerHeks | Lanasee if you have the correct videodriver instalkled, that might explain lack of smoothness | 22:40 |
| k1l_ | Lanevall: installed the proper video driver? | 22:40 |
| Guest26005 | \9: you suggest entering "Rescue mode" from the installation dvd? | 22:41 |
| \9 | Guest26005: i'm not sure what that does.. i've always used the "try ubuntu" option | 22:41 |
| Lanevall | okey, i understand the vaugeness in the question and i have more info, just wanted to see if you wanted to help me out, thank you for that | 22:41 |
| \9 | Lanevall: helping people out is what this place is or | 22:41 |
| \9 | for* | 22:41 |
| helpmeh | k1l i think its stuck on 91%? | 22:41 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: let it run | 22:42 |
| Lanevall | im running ubuntu 16.04, on a intel i7 3.0 ghz, GeForce 980M 8MB graphics ram, 16 GB DDR4 | 22:43 |
| Guest26005 | \9 ok. files are intact | 22:44 |
| Lanevall | and the smoothness im talking about is screentearing, not feeling the 144hz smoothness i feel in windows 10 when moving windows in my desktop e. | 22:44 |
| Guest26005 | so the only solution would be to backup all my files and then install on a clean disk? | 22:44 |
| \9 | Guest26005: i would recommend that | 22:44 |
| Lanevall | the nvidia driver reports its installed correctly and i get decent FPS in games | 22:44 |
| Lanevall | but not in my desktop | 22:44 |
| k1l_ | Lanevall: dpkg -l | grep nvidia | nc termbin.com 9999 | 22:45 |
| \9 | Guest26005: i also would recommend using a separate partition for user data. so you can wipe the system all you want while keeping your files | 22:45 |
| Guest26005 | \9 ups..only files in /home are fine | 22:46 |
| Lanevall | http://termbin.com/96cs | 22:46 |
| Guest26005 | \9 those in /var/www have been deleted | 22:46 |
| Guest26005 | how to undelete? | 22:46 |
| \9 | !undelete | Guest26005 | 22:46 |
| ubottu | Guest26005: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery | 22:46 |
| \9 | though if it tried to install on that while only keeping /home.. your chances aren't very good | 22:46 |
| Lanevall | k1l_: did you get the link? | 22:47 |
| k1l_ | Lanevall: ok, that is the latest ubuntu nvidia driver | 22:47 |
| Lanevall | yes | 22:47 |
| Lanevall | and my system should be able to get a smooth nice feel to it with this specc, a 3000 dollar laptop should be able to run ubuntu nice | 22:48 |
| k1l_ | Lanevall: looks like its nvidia related and you can try this setting: http://askubuntu.com/a/858019/31260 | 22:49 |
| melani | hay algun español? | 22:49 |
| Lanevall | but that does not seem to be the case in this matter, something must be wrong somewhere in the system | 22:49 |

| faLUCE | (Ubuntu 16.04) hello. I have a very bad Wifi internet connection with my pc. It is often very slow, and it disconnects often as well (I have to restart /etc/init.d/networking) The ADSL is ok, and other pcs don't have any problems. Then, it's a driver issue. How can I correct that? | 22:52 |
| Guest26005 | but i hae a lot of numbers | 22:52 |
| melani | vale | 22:52 |
| Guest26005 | no fs path there | 22:52 |
| Guest26005 | :( | 22:52 |
| \9 | Guest26005: oh for the data recovery.. i don't know anything about that | 22:52 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: ok, when apt is done then open the software center | 22:53 |
| Guest26005 | \9 i want only to recover /var/www/public_html | 22:53 |
| Guest26005 | and that will be enough for me | 22:53 |
| helpmeh | i have it dosen't open | 22:53 |
| \9 | Guest26005: it may well have been overwritten by now | 22:53 |
| Guest26005 | i don't have any backup of that i think | 22:53 |
| melani | me puedes dar el link | 22:53 |
| melani | otra vez pofi? | 22:53 |
| Sir_Andrei | Poné /join ubuntu-es (type join...). | 22:53 |
| Guest26005 | <\9> Guest26005: it may well have been overwritten by now | 22:54 |
| Guest26005 | why do you think that? | 22:54 |
| Sir_Andrei | Idk if ur using a irc client or if u re from a webclient, but..., well, the command should work. (No se si estás usando un cliente IRC o si estás desde un chat web, pero bueh, el comando debería funcionar de todas formas.) | 22:54 |
| melani | mandame | 22:54 |
| melani | un mensaje privado andrei | 22:55 |
| \9 | Guest26005: because when the filesystem is reformatted, all data is considered free space and can be overwritten anytime | 22:55 |
| Sir_Andrei | Oka. | 22:55 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: run "ubuntu-software" in terminal and see what it says there | 22:55 |
| Guest26005 | \9 i have a raid formation with 2 drives | 22:55 |
| \9 | err wait it wasn't reformatted | 22:55 |
| Guest26005 | forgot to put offline one of them for backup | 22:55 |
| Guest26005 | does this help? | 22:55 |
| Guest26005 | maybe one of them still have the old data? | 22:55 |
| \9 | but the directory appears to be removed and an installer was run atop of that | 22:55 |
| helpmeh | says nothing just $ has gone | 22:56 |
| \9 | Guest26005: i'm unfortunately not experienced with raid either.. but if you think so then yeah sure | 22:56 |
| \9 | but if it really did remove the directory, then the directory is free space and the uninstaller could have overwritten it | 22:56 |
| \9 | er | 22:56 |
| \9 | the installer* | 22:56 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: "ls -al .local/share/gnome-software/ | nc termbin.com 9999" | 22:56 |
| Guest26005 | \9 i never thought that it will delete my /var/www folder entirely | 22:58 |
| Guest26005 | because i had data in public_html | 22:58 |
| Guest26005 | and the new folder is called "html" | 22:58 |
| helpmeh | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23977498/ | 22:58 |
| Guest26005 | so it had no reason to remove my folder | 22:58 |
| Guest26005 | :( | 22:58 |
| \9 | Guest26005: well as i said before, i never used that option. so all i can do is guess | 22:59 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: that is an old paste :) | 22:59 |
| \9 | Guest26005: for all i know it's even possible that the data was just moved | 22:59 |
| helpmeh | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23977509/ | 23:00 |
| Guest26005 | i always had this problem with linux | 23:00 |
| helpmeh | lol | 23:00 |
| Guest26005 | it is not undelete reliable | 23:00 |
| Guest26005 | :( | 23:00 |
| helpmeh | linuxmasterrace | 23:00 |
| \9 | Guest26005: nothing is "undelete reliable". windows just moves things into trash | 23:01 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: the command is "ls -al .local/share/gnome-software/ | nc termbin.com 9999" | 23:01 |
| Guest26005 | =)) it's not that | 23:01 |
| Guest26005 | it is just because i thought that overwrite means to write over and delete nothing | 23:01 |
| Guest26005 | when you write files into folders | 23:01 |
| Guest26005 | you don't delete files... | 23:02 |
| Guest26005 | this is how i understand it | 23:02 |
| \9 | but if you write a file on top of another file then the old version is lost | 23:02 |
| Guest26005 | :( it doesn't matter now | 23:02 |
| \9 | sure it may linger somewhere in the hard drive, which is where the data recovery tools come in | 23:02 |
| \9 | but as more writes occurr the chances dwindle because the risk of it being overwritten *on disk* increase towards 1 | 23:03 |
| monk_ | I'm pretty sure the gnome3 team ought to be working in redmond. what a pos. | 23:03 |
| bazhang | monk_, thats not topical here | 23:03 |
| Sir_Andrei | ...kinda stupid guy... -.-, sry. | 23:04 |
| monk_ | it is when there software screws up my unity install. | 23:04 |
| Guest26005 | \9 so i have to shutdown and boot live cd? | 23:04 |
| bazhang | monk_, file a wishlist bug if you think it needs improvement | 23:04 |
| Guest26005 | \9 because time is running and it may damage the folder | 23:04 |
| Guest26005 | \9 if not already did | 23:04 |
| \9 | Guest26005: you're running the system right now? | 23:04 |
| monk_ | like a clean uninstall? | 23:04 |
| helpmeh | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23977533/ | 23:05 |
| bazhang | monk_, what is your exact ubuntu support issue | 23:05 |
| \9 | Guest26005: if you want to do data recovery on something, using it is the last thing you want to do | 23:05 |
| bazhang | monk_, this is NOT the complaints channel | 23:05 |
| Guest26005 | \9 right | 23:06 |

| helpmeh | ty it works now | 23:08 |
| Lanevall | just like the 3 last comments say, it did not work for me | 23:08 |
| helpmeh | didnt want to rm after i -rm dpkg lol | 23:08 |
| k1l_ | Lanevall: did you try the "nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode ...... " command i linked you? | 23:08 |
| k1l_ | helpmeh: the way to success is not to delete the wrong stuff. so if you dont know its ok to delete better rename the file or folder | 23:09 |
| Guest26005 | \9 thanks a lot for info | 23:09 |
| Lanevall | yes i did k1l_ , i pasted that whole line in the terminal | 23:09 |
| Guest26005 | '\9 bye | 23:09 |
| Lanevall | still alot of screentearing and not feeling any smoothness at all | 23:11 |

| Lanevall | _( | 23:11 |
| helpmeh | how do i install i2p ? | 23:12 |
