[00:37] mices, thats a metapackage, ok to remove [00:37] mices: because lubuntu-desktop has that as a dependency [00:38] lubuntu-desktop is a metapackage needed for what? [00:38] to run firefox? [00:38] mices: for lubuntu. [00:38] for lubuntu mices [00:38] but you say it's ok to uninstall lubuntu-desktop? [00:38] if you isntall lubuntu-desktop it will pull in all the programs you need for the full desktop experience. [00:38] i see [00:38] mices correct [00:39] listen to this short story [00:39] mices what short story is that [00:39] i installed on a acer aspire one zg5 with 1gb ram [00:39] mices: so if you remove lubuntu-desktop there is still lxde etc installed. [00:39] i thought it was slow so i uninstalled firefox and installed chrome and it got a lot faster [00:40] it went from unusable to usable [00:40] youtube videos im talking about [00:40] then i noticed if i uninstall lubuntu-desktop goes with it [00:41] makes me say hmmm [00:41] mices, as said thats not an issue [00:41] so then it seems firefox itself is slower than chrome [00:41] chromium [00:42] mices, with a scant one gb ram, hard to believe firefox ran at all [00:43] heh [00:43] mices so accept the limitations of your very low ram system, or up the ram [00:43] in case anyone ever tries to sell you one, the zg5 maxes out at 1.5gb ram [00:44] cause it has 512mb soldered on [00:44] mices well thats hardly topical here [00:44] sorry [00:44] #ubuntu-offtopic for chit chat mices [00:45] for what it's worth it runs great with 1.5gb ram and lubuntu/chromium [00:45] no need for a better pc [00:45] @k1l_ my connexion died , did u send smth ?

[01:13] hello [01:15] I'm trying to formad my HDD from a live CD of ubuntu, but when I open gparted I see my HDD as 'unallocated space'. I had problems with my HDD's partitions before (that's why I'm formatting it). [01:15] format* [01:16] Does anyone know how can I format (if I can) from this live cd, or shall I need other tools like Hirens boot? [01:16] format to ext4 or ntfs? [01:16] Ntfs, since I will install first Windows 7 and then scientific linux [01:16] cant use ubuntu for that [01:17] use window 7 install disk for that [01:17] I have problems. [01:17] i.e: I can't. [01:17] Dunno why, there is some problem with my partitions, that's the reason why I'm trying to format it. [01:17] bios issues thwen [01:17] check ide/achi [01:17] I did. [01:18] I didn't see nothing special there. Anyway, I loaded default settings. [01:19] try a diffenrt port on your motherboard [01:19] make sure it is a differnt controller [01:19] most motherboard have 2 x sata controllers [01:19] It is a laptop [01:20] I didn't open it. [01:20] ok, lets try this create an ext4 from live cd [01:20] an ext4 partition? [01:20] then reformat that to ntfs with windwos instsall [01:21] I have all my hdd as 'unllocated space'. [01:21] But if I run testdisk tool I can see my old partitions. [01:21] Moreover, if I run windows 7 I can see my old w7 partitions. [01:21] I don't know if I'm explaining myself. === johnnyPanda is now known as john___ [01:22] I can boot my old w7 with, for example, hirens boot tool, and then I'm able to access to my old windows 7 partition. But in Gparted, from this live CD, I see all my hDD as unllocated space. [01:24] If I run fdisk -l from terminal, I can see my partitions.

[01:57] effectnet, what app, whats the new version, why do you need the latest [01:57] effectnet: if it's a brand-new update, it's probably not in the repo yet, so you can't get it from `apt-get`. The easiest way is to see if the application's developers released a .deb file and use thta [01:57] well it's freeplane. oh it's kinda new and i want to get the latest key fixes and stuff. some of the stuff isn't working quite right.

[02:06] bazhang, I tried googling the problem that I'm having and I even found people making scripts to make it work but I don't understand how to use those [02:06] effectnet, on 16.10 it's quite a bit higher [02:07] nx9010, to add a folder and do a batch encode? [02:07] k i'll check it [02:08] nx9010, that simply puts them in a queue [02:08] nx9010, the actual encoding/re-enoding time will not be altered [02:09] effectnet, /msg ubottu info freeplace [02:09] bazhang, Yes, what is the 'normal' way to do it directly under Hanbrake?

[03:13] intruz: sorry not sure, never had linux along with touchscreen device [03:14] but if there's driver which is controlling it you should be able to blacklist it in initramfs I guess [03:14] Len, could i use this /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf [03:17] intruz: ya [03:18] remember about update-initramfs -u [03:18] I'm out, good luck [03:19] hey guys, I'm trying to connect to wifi in ubuntu 14.04 but the wifi networks are not showing up [03:19] I tried various forums but with no avail [03:21] Len, how do i figure out the name of the module?

I can login via terminal just fine but I'm at my wits end trying to fix this. I have reinstalled the desktop enviornment, graphics drivers, sddm, etc trying to fix this and nothing. Anyone have any ideas? [03:44] Hello. Does anyone else find that nm-applet provides inconsistent visual monitoring of a wifi signal? I.e., do you find that the ))))) icon in the panel sometimes shows no signal when the signal is fine, or that it shows the Ethernet icon even though you're still connected to wireless?

But that doesn't happen [04:32] If I google for restoring sound control to the bar, I get posts from 2010 that are way out of date === drewlover is now known as _dnb_ [04:35] If I recall correctly, before the reboot I could configure the panel by invoking a context menu [04:37] I take it that this is a recent change to the way the gnome desktop works? I did do an apt-get dist-upgrade recently [04:38] My ideal outcome: I want to be able to control the volume without hunting through layers of settings. [04:38] Before the reboot I could do this with a slider that I could immediately invoke from the panel [04:42] bobdobbs, I think this might have to do with the indicator-sound process. And package. Can you tell if indicator-sound is running? [04:42] tubal: lets see... [04:43] tubal: I can't tell. ps -auxw | grep 'indica' returns nothing [04:44] afaict, my system doesn't have a command called 'indicator-sound' [04:44] Hrm. Do you have any other icons in your panel? .... It's not a command per se. [04:46] On the far left I can see 'Activities'. Next to it I can see an icon for emacs, which I'm running.

[04:47] tubal: the icon for sound control is actually there after all [04:47] tubal: it's just visually obscured by the corner of another monitor that I have on my desk [04:47] lol bobdobbs [04:47] * bobdobbs facepalm [04:47] Oh! Well good. I'm surprised that you have no *-indicator processes. [04:48] Maybe it's different in Gnome vs. Unity? [05:18] !ping [05:18] pong! [05:30] What is the easiest way to get ubuntu to run a terminal command on startup? [05:32] stick it in /etc/rc.local [05:33] if it's more then a few lines, might want to put it into it's own shell script and call the script from rc.local [05:33] JairunCaloth: not now...nowdays you must create a service [05:33] rc.local doesn't work anymore? [05:34] it's present on my 16.04 system [05:34] I have a wacom tablet that I want to turn the touch function off automatically when I log in with: xsetwacom set 10 TOUCH off [05:34] I telling you..not in 16.10 [05:34] lame [05:34] fortunatly, creating systemd services isn't that hard [05:35] is specifically what I'm trying to achieve. [05:35] yes, but rc.local was easy [05:36] can someone help, i can't connect to wired ethernet connection [05:37] hopup: you can also add the script to your shell (bash .profile or login) [05:38] just a guess, but the desktop environment might have some functionality for running commands on login. [05:38] kbob: I think that might be what I need to do. There is an askubuntu where the guy was trying to do something similar. I'll try it and let you know if it works. [05:40] How can I open/unpack .mpkg files on ubuntu? [05:40] coyotebm: can you provide some additional details such as which version you are running, are you using a static IP or dhcp, ect.. [05:41] kbob: I just append it onto the bottom of .profile right? No special deliminators? [05:41] Oh yeah sorry. I'm running ubuntu 14.04 and a dhcp [05:41] JairunCaloth: do you want the output of ifconfig? [05:41] sure [05:45] JairunCaloth: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23979620/ [05:45] pov: maybe xar? [05:45] And when I try to get my driver, in settings, there is none to download [05:47] coyotebm: so it looks like you are failing to get a DHCP address for whatever reason [05:48] eth0 is up, so it appears that you have a link. [05:49] Do you have other devices hooked up to the network that can get a DHCP address without problem? [05:49] Yes [05:50] what happens if you configure an unused static IP address from the same subnet? [05:51] I have not tried that yet [05:52] If I'm understanding you right, the dhcp is something that assigns dynamic ip from a subnet [05:52] yes [05:52] for most folks that's your home router. [05:52] And it is different from machine to machine [05:52] yes, each machine requires a seperate IP address. [05:52] hello JairunCaloth [05:53] if you have two with the same address, bad stuff happens [05:53] hi uxfi [05:53] My home router has multiple machines with dynamic ips, so its not the fault of the router [05:53] the eth0 is a device that handles ethernet connections, but from the ifconfig its working correctly [05:54] it does look like it is, and it looks like it has a good physical link. [05:54] hopup: yes [05:54] ok, I'll find something online about getting a static ip [05:55] the eth0:avahi device showing up tells us that the machine wasn't able to get a DHCP address, so it auto assigned an address from a special subnet reserved for localy auto configured networks. [05:55] kbob: alrighty! thank you! [05:56] coyotebm: you can just use ifconfig to assign an address for testing purposes. [05:57] ifconfig eth0 netmask [05:58] once you do that, see if you can ping the router's IP. [05:58] I am not sure how to find netmask [05:58] is it just 255.255.255.0 [05:59] on a home network, probably 255.255.255.0 [06:00] ok I ran that, but internet is still not here [06:00] well, you don't have a default route yet so your computer doesn't know where to send internet traffic [06:01] we just want to make sure you can ping the router now. [06:01] is that just the default gateway [06:01] normally, but since you didn't get a DHCP address your computer probably doesn't have the correct default gateway [06:02] for now, just see if you can ping the routers IP address [06:03] that will tell us that the NIC is working correctly and that you actually have a good physical link. [06:04] how do i find my router's ip? [06:05] is that the subnet mask [06:05] it will vary from router to router. A good start is either the manual that came with the router, or googling the model number to find out what the router's default IP is. [06:05] usually something like 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 [06:06] my default gateway is 1.1 [06:06] what address did you assign eth0? [06:06] 192.168.1.100 [06:06] ok, so see if you can ping 192.168.1.1 [06:07] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23979702/ [06:07] I am unable to [06:07] saying network unreachable [06:08] the only address that doesn't say that is 192.168.1.1 ( my default gateway ) [06:09] coyotebm: `ip addr` and `ip route` output? [06:09] thats router [06:11] JairunCaloth: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23979715/ [06:11] its so hard pasting things when your working on two computers [06:12] Your eth0 is down, it doesn't look like you correctly assigned an IP address to eth0 [06:12] advise me please irc-client for ubuntu [06:12] also NO-CARRIER indicates there isn't a physical link [06:12] something like xchat [06:12] xchat is deprecated [06:12] maybe my ethernet cable is broken? [06:13] sakhd, hexchat [06:13] https://hexchat.github.io/news/announcement.html [06:13] perhaps [06:13] The command I used as "sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.9" [06:13] sorry I missread it the first time. you did assign the address correclty [06:14] but the link is down [06:14] is this software or definitely the cable's fault [06:14] I would check the cable first [06:14] Ok I'll find another one [06:16] cfhowlett: thank you [06:16] happy2help! sakhd [06:18] coyotebm: I have to go to bed, work in the morning. Once you swap the cables, you'll want to restart networking to clear out the manual stuff we assigned. [06:20] coyotebm: You need a default route! [06:21] @JairunCaloth, I switched the cable, and the ipaddr is different [06:21] agent_white: his machine isn't getting dhcp. we assigned a static IP and tested pinging the router. [06:21] I'll try pinging my router [06:22] coyotebm: `sudo ip route add default via 192.168.1.0 dev eth0` [06:22] coyotebm: Run that then try again [06:23] shouldn't need a route to ping machines on the same subnet. [06:25] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23979766/ [06:25] here is my new ipaddr [06:25] @agent_white it says that there is invalid argument [06:25] looks like you got a DHCP address that time. but your static ip is still assigned. [06:26] so with dhcp address, should be no issue [06:26] so I'm thinking the cable swap fixed it. [06:26] then what is the issue now? [06:27] it set up the new IP as a secondary, so may not have set a route [06:27] I think its the configuration file that I edited it when I was initially trying to solve the issue [06:27] restart networking it should clear the static IP and get an address on eth0 [06:27] ok so I'll just restart network-manager service [06:28] probably not good enough. since we assigned the static outside of network manager [06:28] restart system? [06:29] service network restart should do it [06:29] network? [06:29] has recognized service [06:30] networking maybe. I always forget which it is [06:30] seems like neither work [06:31] Hello all. Is the ubuntu website having issues? [06:32] I keep getting a 403 error on all alternative downloads [06:32] me too [06:32] I retried it a couple of times and the download went through [06:32] service networking restart should do it... or just reboot the box [06:33] ok just rebooted and i'll ipaddr [06:34] JairunCaloth: TIL ARP resolution on subnets. Thank you for mentioning that :) [06:34] seems like the temporary ip is gone [06:34] can you get on the internet? [06:34] not yet [06:35] i got assigned 14 on my ip though [06:35] ok, that's good [06:35] agent_white: no prob :) [06:36] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23979793/ [06:36] eth0 looks good. check that you have a default route [06:37] direct route? [06:37] ip route [06:37] rather, run the ip route command [06:37] i think so? [06:38] lemme get the paste [06:39] OMG [06:39] I have internet! [06:39] :) [06:39] Bad cables man. they will get you every time [06:39] Its just there is a bunch of certificate errors [06:40] but thank you so much man [06:40] Learned a bunch [06:41] cool, glad I could help :) [06:41] Anywho, to bed with me. Nite guys. [06:41] good night [06:41] JairunCaloth: Night! [06:42] coyotebm: Quicktip - you can check an ethernet cord by plugging both ends into a switch that has the 'status lights' for the port [06:42] if both light up, it shows loopback is functioning and thus the cable is bueno [06:44] Thats a good tip agent_white . [06:45] agent_white: i noticed the lights the second time i plugged in the cable. Thought it was just a coincidence [06:45] <_dnb_> Looking for samba help, hopefully something simple: http://pastebin.com/jxnC1XpT [06:46] hi, I am using Xubuntu 16.10.

And elsewhere too. Not in DE though. [07:04] ok. Back to my query. How many DEs can I use on my existing Xubuntu 16.10 without causing any problems or inconsistencies. [07:04] ? [07:05] Can I install Ubuntu Mate on my Xubuntu 16.10 now? [07:05] please somebody guide me in this. [07:07] CrazyTux: You can install DE's until you run out of disk space . [07:08] Great. [07:08] CrazyTux, From what I've read, installing a DE *might* alter your display manager settings. That's the only caviat I know of, and it's fixable afaik. [07:08] how can I install Ubuntu Mate? [07:09] CrazyTux, slow your roll. do you want ubuntu mate or just the mate DE? [07:09] what's the difference between the two? [07:10] I have Xubuntu on my laptop now. [07:10] I think Mate DE is what I want to install over it. [07:10] DE = desktop environment. eye candy, look and feel. desktop = the DE plus the default apps for that distro [07:11] does it mean if I install desktop I'll have installed DE also? [07:11] yes [07:11] then, I want to install Ubuntu Desktop. [07:11] ubuntu-mate-desktop seems to be the package, CrazyTux . [07:11] this would be unity [07:11] sudo apt install ubuntu-mate-desktop [07:11] Or the GUI [07:12] only one command? [07:12] listen to cfhowleft [07:12] ok [07:12] let me execute that command now. [07:13] good luck :P [07:13] if it fails try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-mate-desktop [07:13] rbux, you have any other suggestion? [07:13] ok [07:14] I think there is something running on my computer that is chewing up space. I keep looking at my free space and it keeps dropping. I don't know what is running that could cause it [07:14] I had over 900GB of space, and now I am down to 895 in less than 10 minutes [07:15] do u use chrome or chromium? [07:15] yes [07:15] i prefer both too :P [07:15] I use chrome [07:15] xrandr: One suspect is the log files . [07:15] maybe its because you have a lot of chrome://extensions and chrome://apps [07:15] CrazyTux, http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/download [07:16] 13GB in logs [07:16] ok [07:16] wow thats a lot :p [07:16] Bashing-om: but it keeps dropping. [07:16] if i want to stop logging, what do i do? [07:17] cronjob [07:17] just archive / outsource em [07:17] xrandr: You do not fix logging , one finds our what and why . [07:18] unity-scope-home was the culprit. [07:19] kept writing to syslog [07:19] can I clear out syslog and regain space? [07:21] xrandr: Yeah you may,delete the old logs - so long as you know the cause . [07:21] xrandr, 13 gb of logs is a metric crapton. My whole system clocks in below that number. track what's triggering and fix it. [07:22] cfhowlett: unity-scope-home was writing to it with this message: Unable to get value. NULL row data in DeeSequenceModel@0xaa2610 at position 2. The row has probably been removed [07:22] followed by: Unable to get uint32. Column 2 in DeeSequenceModel@0xaa2610 holds a NULL value in row 2 [07:22] xrandr, easy fix for now: disable scopes [07:23] don't know what it's all about, but i killed unity-scope-home and it is no longer chewing up space [07:23] cfhowlett: what are scopes? [07:23] !scopes | xrandr [07:23] xrandr: integrated search engines [07:24] ah ok [07:24] The thing that noone likes, kinda like Corsana [07:28] agent_white, what is Corsana? [07:28] !corsana [07:28] tubal: cortana [07:28] cortana and there is no factoid because it is for windows not ubuntu [07:29] I misspoke. [07:29] Ah. What a daft name. [07:30] And *someone* must like scopes, or I guess They'd have been drpped by now. I like them. Except the ones that don't seem to do anything. [07:30] tubal: You could say the same about internet popup advertising [07:31] Which... is what they are pretty much. [07:31] agent_white, If you've enabled the commerce ones, which I think are disabled by default. [07:32] Being under the Internet ones in general. [07:32] tubal: I don't use it at all, personally. [07:33] I do, and quite like them. And the menu-less approach in general. But I can see how that could be a bad fit for some. [07:35] I run dmenu and don't worry about adverts messing up my searches. [07:37] I disabled those scopes.. [07:38] what is dmenu? I can't find mention of it in apt*. [07:39] tubal: it's in suckless-tools [07:41] ducasse, Ah thanks. [07:42] I am running ubuntu 16.04 desktop within virtualbox on a mac. My problem is that I use to write [] {} with ALT-L (SHIFT-L) but it seems ALT-L have a different function on ubuntu.

[08:11] heat with txt 'French are for dorks' [08:11] heat hat [08:13] <_dnb_> @bearlycitrus, looks like a few modules are failing, notably the nvidia one. You can disable them for fallback testing, or reinstall the nvidia driver so it can be found [08:14] usually how long does sudo gpart -W a drive a drive takes? [08:15] mr-fool: depends [08:15] _dnb_ , ok. well also my network connection arent working [08:16] <_dnb_> check dmesg for any signs of errors [08:16] <_dnb_> but also, most of that is typically controlled these days by network manager [08:16] <_dnb_> meaning through the ui stuff [08:17] good morning [08:17] <_dnb_> you can still manually bring it up, but it's a pita [08:17] Ben64: would it be easier if I use window 10 and try to rebuild the boot table? [08:17] mr-fool: no idea what you're doing [08:17] what is the ./configure option to install to /usr/bin instead of /usr/local/bin? suprised to find something not in the ubuntu repo [08:17] <[twisti]> on my old ubuntu, i used to get a notice every time i logged in via ssh saying if there were updates to packages i had installed, that feature seems to be gone from my lts 16 install, anyone know how to get it back ? [08:18] Ben64: basically this https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/5tkclx/cant_access_my_ntfs_drive/ [08:18] bearleycitrus when you restart networking you get any message ? [08:18] _dnb_ so I should probably try to disable nvidia and get inside the gui [08:18] jshriver: normally --prefix [08:19] mr-fool: hopefully you have backups [08:19] Ben64: not for my anime and porn [08:19] ducasse thanks sounds right, been a long time. --prefix=/usr/bin --prefix /usr/bin with/without leading /? [08:19] mr-fool: you should probably get help with this from ##windows though, linux and ntfs don't play 100% nicely together [08:19] bearleycitrus: no, try to get the right nvidia version installed [08:19] jshriver: /usr/bin will likely be overwritten, so I'd advise against that; maybe /opt instead? [08:19] blueking not on the screen, any logs I could check? [08:20] thanks [08:20] was thinking about systemctl sumthin [08:20] ifconfig only shows me lo [08:20] no eth0 [08:20] amazed ta-lib isn't available in the repo. But it's a really small library and probably not used a lot [08:21] bearleycitrus checked /etc/network/interfaces ? [08:21] im sure i have both eth0 and eth1 usually [08:21] it says auto lo [08:22] iface lo inet loopback [08:22] thats it.... [08:22] dmesg | grep eth0 [08:22] see if anything was loaded for eth0 on load [08:22] I get two lines mentioning eth0 [08:23] in dmesg [08:23] can also do "lspci | grep NET" to see if it even detects cards in the system [08:23] did it give any errors in dmesg or any useful info? [08:24] if the card is wireless it might be called wlan0 instead of eth0 [08:25] jshriver: does "lspci | grep NET" show anything on your computer?????? try it [08:25] it doesn't does it [08:25] tatertots no it does not show anything [08:26] bearleycitrus: i know that..but i don't think jshriver did...he does now [08:26] bearleycitrus: can you open terminal? [08:26] yes [08:27] bearleycitrus: in terminal> sudo apt install inxi [08:27] bearleycitrus: let me know when its done [08:27] bearleycitrus: wait does the wired connection work? [08:27] I have no internet connection [08:27] no [08:28] bearleycitrus: oh yea that's right [08:29] bearleycitrus: no network, and you have non functional graphics and or glx rendering too correct? [08:29] I have a cable connected to eth0 [08:29] correct [08:30] bearleycitrus: the graphics thing occurred after installing nvidia right? [08:31] no, it has worked before with nvidia [08:31] with this driver [08:31] I run some stupid command to delete old kernels, because I had low space on / and then i upgraded from 16.04 to 16.10 [08:31] then, no gui interface, no network [08:31] deleted driver for nic too then ? [08:32] I dont know :( [08:32] can I verify that? [08:33] lspci did show your nic ? [08:36] changing the ownership of the ntfs drive in window seems to make it readable under window [08:36] so.... [08:37] S [08:37] mr-fool: you are running windows 10 and can't access ntfs drive in linux? [08:38] auronandace: basically the ntfs drive is not readable under window 10 after I reinstall it, it has always been readable under linux. I attempt to fix this issue by extending the volume under window 10 then none of the os can read it. now i change ownership of the hdd it is readable under window 10 [08:38] have to restart to see if it is readable under linux [08:39] bearleycitrus: if i were in your shoes, i'd simply backup any important data and reinstall, chalk it up to a lesson learned [08:39] bearleycitrus: next time around be cognizant of how you ration/partition your drive space [08:39] bearleycitrus dmesg | grep -i network [08:40] mr-fool: i know when dual-booting you need to make sure win10 actually shuts down properly (rather than the default hibernate) to be able to get the ntfs partition to mount properly under linux [08:40] blueking Intel pro/1000 Network Driver [08:40] s [08:40] eth1 network connection [08:40] auronandace: or disable fastboot [08:41] mr-fool: yeah, that is essentially it [08:41] bearleycitrus hmm none eth0 ? [08:41] eth1: intel pro/1000 network conneciton [08:41] no [08:41] interfaces eth0 not eth1 ? [08:42] dual nic or ? [08:42] rebooting to linux to see if it works or not [08:43] bearleycitrus you have dual nic ? [08:43] yes [08:43] dual nic [08:44] one of em are missing then.. dual nic pci-e card ? === dreamon_ is now known as dreamon [08:44] dual nic integrated to motherboard both of them [08:44] so wierd one is missing lol [08:45] well [08:45] Think I will do a backup of files then re-install [08:45] pull cable out from eth0 port then reboot and see if eth0 are back could be shortened tp cable ? [08:47] no it is not readable under linux :< [08:48] that sucks [08:48] mr-fool: any errors when you try to mount it manually? [08:49] is there a data format that is good for switching between linux and window? [08:49] auronandace: how do I mount it manually [08:50] !mount | mr-fool [08:50] mr-fool: mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount [08:50] bearleycitrus reinstall of linux wouldn't bring back eth0 me thinks since the other nic show up... [08:51] auronandace: sudo mount /dev/sdc [08:51] mount: can't find /dev/sdc in /etc/fstab [08:51] mr-fool@mrfool-hetzer ~ $ sudo mount /dev/sdc3 [08:51] mount: can't find /dev/sdc3 in /etc/fstab [08:51] Bluetooth isn't detecting any devices now but it did yesterday.

[08:54] nope [08:55] bearleycitrus: no, but that file is not used if network manager is controlling the nics [08:56] http://imgur.com/a/bd5kQ <---basically my issue atm [08:57] Why isn't my bluetooth adapter working? https://dpaste.de/1s6o/raw [08:58] auronandace: any more tips [08:59] ss [08:59] mr-fool: it is using ldm, not normal partitions [09:00] mr-fool: here is a page that might help: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8427372/windows-spanned-disks-ldm-restoration-with-linux [09:00] auronandace: I think I will just boot to window 10 [09:01] copy the files then format it to ntfs [09:01] rebooting to window [09:01] back in 4 mins [09:04] auronandace: should I format the nfts drive in ubuntu or window? [09:06] I'm trying to use an openvpn based vpn using kvpnc and the network-manager plugin, but i'm unable to do so. I have imported the configurations and certificates to the kvpnc client but when I try to connect the kvpnc console log says "error: OpenvpnManagementHandler: Connection refused". What should I do? [09:08] mr-fool: windows is usually the best option for that but if that is your win10 install (rather than just a data partition) that would mean you'd need to reinstall win10 [09:08] I can boot into the gui on a older kernel, my network connection is grayed out in the manager, says they arent handled. [09:08] auronandace: it is my data drive [09:09] mr-fool: if you make the partition through linux just remember to boot to windows and let it run the chkdsk on it [09:09] basically I have 3 os drive: ubuntu, linux mint and window 10. 2x 2th internal data drive, 1x 320 gb data drive [09:09] and external hdds too [09:10] bearleycitrus why not use 16.04 LTS ? [09:10] idk, stupid, I wanted to try the ubuntu gnome 8 [09:10] 16.04 lts runs poorly on amd rx 280x [09:11] the gpu temp reading is off [09:11] leading to the system believing in overheating [09:11] is it possible to rollback to 16.04? :P [09:11] now I just use rx 480 [09:11] fyi, I am a casual miner [09:11] I don't paly games [09:12] 16.04 still present ? located at /boot [09:16] Hi. I'm not sure if this is a Kubuntu-specific problem, so I'll ask here as well. I am using Kupfer (an app to start other apps/search for items via some shortcut and a subsequently opened command-window). Kupfer is started automatically, but the command-window doesn't open when I hit the shortcut. The *only* way I can get it to work is to stop the autostarted process and to run Kupfer manually from the [09:16] command-line. Not even starting it manually from Kubuntus' app-launcher seems to work. Any thoughts on what the problem could be? [09:28] bed time [09:30] how do i paste ssh key into digital ocean terminal? using firefox on Ubuntu/i3 [09:31] Mrokii: Maybe that button isn't issuing the request properly back to the app... maybe run `dbus-monitor` and see what is being issued when you click the button, compared to from the command line? [09:36] hey anyone know how to batch encode a folder of files in Handbrake? cant seem to queue more than 1 file at a time... [09:37] I already asked in Handbrake on IRC but no reply, so maybe someone here uses it under Linux === acidghost is now known as acidghost_ [09:38] Hi guys..

Thanks. [09:47] Mrokii: Worth a shot at least! I'm not familiar with your Kupfer deal, but thinking in terms of IPC issues. [09:47] bash vs gui button sounds session and dbus related... maybe. [09:47] * agent_white shrugs [09:50] hi [09:51] I got a repeater that is now connected to wifi. Do I have to connect to repeater everytime or it's enough to connect to original wifi and the repeater handles the extension? [09:52] is there a way to enable unity dash show calculations by default instead of manually selecting info -> Sources: calculator manually every single time? [09:53] and this is on 16.04 lts [09:53] do it in terminal by $ bc [09:53] use the basic calculator instead? [09:53] <[twisti]> on my old ubuntu, i used to get a notice every time i logged in via ssh saying if there were updates to packages i had installed, that feature seems to be gone from my lts 16 install, anyone know how to get it back ? surely someone must know what i mean ? [09:54] Peyam: it's slow workflow [09:54] besides searchboxes in osx and kde show simple calculations by default [09:55] Xard, i'm sorry I probably dont understand what you mean. but you want to use the calculator? === Yolo is now known as Guest45251 [09:57] Xard, do you mean that you write a calculation in dash and it automatically forward you to the calculator? [10:00] Xard, I suggest making a keyboard shortcut. Maybe that makes it easier. [10:07] Hello [10:10] oh, you can use "calc:" prefix to force search like "calc:(2951+4612)/3.2" [10:11] hi, what is purpose of libglu1-mesa? [10:11] or try to add a "info-calculator.scope" to the dconf->com->canonical->unity->lenses->always-search list [10:11] but that didn't seem to do anything unfortunately [10:21] I use Windows as my OS, how do I use Ubuntu without disk segmentation?

[10:24] asdfgf: 2gb ram is a bit short to run vms [10:24] asdfgf: you could install ubuntu to a usb if you want [10:25] asdfgf: you could run ubuntu in a live desktop from the usb pendrive. but for the long run you want to isntall it onto an internal disk [10:27] hi guys [10:33] I have 4GB, 3.88GB usable.

Thank you. [11:09] for google apps i would suggest to run the browser addons from chromium or chrome [11:21] thank you, k1l, what addons should i install in my chrome or chromium?

[12:10] CrazyTux, you can allways install 'cheese' I guess [12:11] let me try that. [12:11] CrazyTux: its your decision if you trust google. there is an alternative with chromium. [12:11] Greetings you'all! [12:12] ok. I'll stick to chromium. [12:12] What's your favorite programing language?

I dont know whatpercentage of blocks is reserved (EXT4 is 5%), but that is too much on a 1TB SSD. I want to reduce that value to 0.5%, but if I execute sudo tune2fs -m0.5 /dev/mapper/nvme0n1p3_crypt I get tune2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/mapper/nvme0n1p3_crypt, /dev/mapper/nvme0n1p3_crypt contains a LVM2_member file system. What should I do? [12:16] ubuntu is installed in this main partition [12:17] you need to do it on the lvm volume that is mounted as / (and therefore the one having the ext4 filesystem) [12:17] topkektyrone: see their readme how to install and run it [12:17] ...not on the mapper of your lvm luks crypt device [12:19] topkektyrone: since you want to run that program for research purposes and not for just hacking other ones wifis, you want to read the documentation anyway because you want to know in detail how it works. [12:19] i did it returned ImportError: No module named setuptools [12:20] FinalX, there is only one ext2 here, no ext4. This ext2's mount point is boot. Is this the one I need? [12:21] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23981011/ [12:23] topkektyrone: sudo apt install python3-setuptools [12:25] still get sudo: ./wifiphisher.py: command not found === SirMarky1 is now known as SirMarky [12:26] lerner: You encrypt disks/partitions with LUKS. You *clearly* run LVM on top of that partition as your pasted error shows (/dev/mapper/nvme0n1p3_crypt contains a LVM2_member file system.); then you have a filesystem on top of that LVM volume. That's the one you'll need. I can't look into your system, only you can. So it's important you understand the different layers. [12:26] did the setup work now without error? [12:28] yes but cant install PyRIC and blessings [12:29] lerner, lsblk or mount or df / should tell you the device name [12:30] topkektyrone: its hard to support that when we dont know whats going on. [12:31] i have followed the help [12:31] but it is ubuntu :/ [12:31] topkektyrone: but when you run software from 3rd party you might want to ask that 3rd party for help with their code. its not from ubuntu and not made to work with ubuntu by ubuntu [12:33] http://paste.ubuntu.com/23981066/ i have followed the instructions [12:34] someone who knows why i can run this line i ubuntu 14 but it does not work in 16 ? echo IP=$(ifconfig eth0 2>/dev/null | awk '/inet addr/{print substr($2,6)}') [12:34] Hiya folks [12:35] Name10: because the device naming changed? look at ifconfig [12:35] ifconfig also says eth0 ?

[12:39] Kll_: Nope :-( [12:39] BluesKaj: Its says eth0 [12:40] ups wrong ssh 2 sec :-) [12:40] Name10: then i guess something changed with the version from ifconfig [12:41] it still says eth0.

[12:57] wendico: it's either vmx (intel) or svm (amd) flag [12:57] akik: thank you im reading it [12:58] i've extracted it to zed/downloads/wifiphiser-1.2 how i run it? [12:58] topkektyrone: what you do there has nothing to do with dpkg, apt or ubuntu.

[13:11] or may be that is time to thinks bout leave unity for ... what ? : ) [13:12] b100s: if you remove one monitor that is not a bug. [13:12] ok, solved. removed the package mentioned in the error, dont know how it got installed there [13:12] k1l_, what do you mena? cant get you [13:13] k1l_, it still reproduce on laptop without external monitor [13:13] b100s: if you have a multimonitor setup and remove one monitor the sorting of the windows has to be rearanged [13:13] Sorry I asked this before then got disconnected... hi, why would it be that my broadcom usb picks up all local wifi networks with iwlist but network manager doesn't even work? [13:14] b100s: it doesnt to that for me if i lock the screen. maybe the xserver crashs? maybe driver issues? [13:14] I've tried installing a new broadcom driver but I have no idea how to check if it's running okay [13:15] wassu[ [13:15] k1l_, even when i use ecternal monitor without mirroring it should keep ordereing becuase external monitor using instead laptops [13:15] b100s: change in resolution? [13:15] k1l_, may be driver or xserver issue, yes; but for me it doesnt make sense as for user [13:16] b100s: then look at the logs if there is an issue. [13:16] k1l_, whic one, for what shoudl i grep and what path ? [13:17] b100s: i dont know what to grep for. .xsession errors in your home. or Xorg.0.log in /var/log [13:27] this is what lsusb says: Bus 001 Device 009: ID 0846:9011 NetGear, Inc.

I'm running a docker container on "start of runlevel 0" but i seems as some device mapper things has already stopped working then. [14:07] using Keyboard Layout Chart from language menu in menubar shows the keyboard map with ellipsis where the glyps won't fit the shape of its key. This prevents me from seeing the char on several keys [14:07] ducasse: can you be more specific with "software-virtualized system" please. That is what HAxm is i thing, but does not support linux [14:07] is there a way to avoid this and have the font scale? [14:09] wendico: what program do you want to run? [14:09] this is what I meant https://dl.dropbox.com/s/46akuhyzg4tcuuh/Screenshot%20from%202017-02-12%2015-08-03.png [14:09] wendico: and iirc does HAxm need the vt-d cpu support, which you dont have [14:10] k1l_: so far just i made a hello world and want to download some examples, im just 2 weeks learning so far [14:10] but my virtual machine did not work it asked vt-x or HAXM [14:11] wendico: but what do you want to virtualize? [14:11] what processor do you have wendico ? [14:11] i want to virtualize android [14:11] wendico: with what virtualization program? [14:11] Psychonaut, thanks! Do I need to install cabal to install it http://ianwookim.org/hoodle/installation.html? Is there .deb file somewhere(git repo releases doesn't have it)? [14:11] wendico: there are programs like virtualbox who run without cpu support. [14:12] processor: T4500, software: i tried android studio (dont work), genymotion(dont work) [14:12] virtual box installed and im experienced with it [14:13] but i dont know how to install an android system so i installed genymotion [14:13] wendico: looks like they use kvm, which needs cpu support. [14:13] well [14:13] if you are familiar with virtualbox [14:13] why not follow a guide like : http://www.howtogeek.com/164570/how-to-install-android-in-virtualbox/ [14:14] aionnl: following link [14:14] the guide itself is bit outdated [14:14] but the link to androidx86 is updated [14:14] so all that changes is a newer version of the iso === acidghost is now known as acidghost_ [14:17] aionNL: wow really? i asumed i couldnt run android straight on VB because just the existence of genymotion === acidghost_ is now known as acidghost [14:17] there are always work arounds when people put their minds to it :)) [14:17] like my esxi machines are completely unsupported but i can even use passthrough with a bit of fiddling and lots of google :)) [14:18] abhishek, Sorry mate no deb available for hoodle compile from git or use cabal (https://github.com/wavewave/hoodle/issues/39) === acidghost is now known as acidghost_ === acidghost_ is now known as acidghost [14:26] #freeswitch-fr [14:30] AionNL: downloading ISOs so i can test them in my virtual box, i just hope it does work without hardware vt-x [14:30] it should run as binary only [14:30] but keep int mind it will be slow [14:30] since that t4500 is old [14:30] i know, np to be slow, just want it to be posible [14:32] i've not had best luck with genymotion, but I could be a dumb too [14:33] btw aionNL, i heard that i could virtualize vt-x on a nested virtualization, do you have any knowledge about it? [14:34] i mean, if i install VB inside an VB machine, will the last VB support vt-x? [14:34] nabend [14:36] im just gonna go ahead trying hehe [14:43] wendico: that is so much overhead that is not suitable for your cpu [14:44] wendico, https://www.pcsteps.com/508-nested-virtualization/ [14:44] k1l_: thank u, i think android_x86 will just run fine, is installing now on VM an android 6, i cant belive it === miguel is now known as Guest56515 [14:44] wendico: look out for a project that works without vt on the cpu. else there is no chance. the android sdk will run without vtd iirc === danny is now known as Guest20372 [14:47] need to reboot, brb, got some window crashes === michael1 is now known as hoagies [14:52] plz can u share the link about nested virtualization again? thank you very much, had to reboot coz i crashed after plugin a usb defective cable [14:57] what's the shortcut to type ellipsis with international with Alt Gr layout? [14:58] Why don't u just type 3 points [15:00] help me === darlene is now known as Guest7266 [15:01] help me [15:01] with what? [15:02] hi. What is the current easier/best way to customise a livecd? I found a lot about Ubuntu Customisation Kit, but it's a discontinued project. I just need to distribute a live image with a few more files [15:02] easiest* [15:02] How do i uninstall xampp completely? [15:03] Guest7266: you installed that bundle from the website? [15:04] @k1l_ oh k1l_ yesterday you were gone when i came back , are u still up to look up my pb ? [15:04] v5: right [15:04] oh yes! [15:05] you installed that bundle from the website? [15:05] I want to delete all packages from xampp [15:05] Guest7266: "ls -al /opt/lampp/uninstall | nc termbin.com 9999" [15:05] run taht in terminal please and show the output url here [15:06] @k1l_ so i rebooted with a different kernel version and had the exact same issue [15:06] v5: why don't you type an 'e' in place of an 'a'? they are similar enough and people will likely understand you anyway [15:07] anddam: so you use the wrong layout for your language? or what is the exact issue? [15:07] k1l_: and what specific language would that be that "owns" ellipsis? === KindOne_ is now known as KindOne [15:08] I have an ANSI keyboard, I cannot see the shortcuts using the keyboard viewer as explained earlier [15:08] let me repost [15:08] this is what I meant https://dl.dropbox.com/s/46akuhyzg4tcuuh/Screenshot%20from%202017-02-12%2015-08-03.png [15:09] a few keys aren't visible even scaling the window [15:09] I'm not even sure there is a direct combination for ellipsis, that's why I asked [15:09] hi. What is the current easiest/best way to customise a livecd? I found a lot about Ubuntu Customisation Kit, but it's a discontinued project. I just need to distribute a live image with a few more files [15:12] anddam: for me its altgr+. [15:13] anddam: from the layout you posted i guess you need compose+/ [15:15] not that's a small question mark composed char [15:16] it's shown as ellipsis just because the char doesn't fit [15:16] the keyboard viewer isn't written very well [15:16] k1l_: how's your layout called? [15:16] what keyboard layout do you use then? [15:16] English (International with AltGr dead key) [15:17] setxkbmap -query wil tell [15:17] pc105 us,us intl [15:18] mine is pc105 de (for german) [15:18] I write Italian at times (so just the accented vowels) but the physical layout is ANSI [15:18] therefore I'm using a dead key keyboard layout === per is now known as Guest8549 [15:19] this is the only key I was used to on a mac that I didn find straightforward on ubuntu [15:19] but 105 is not ansi [15:19] oh right due to the one missing key [15:20] btw this is a laptop so the keyboard is emulating the numeric keypad as well [15:24] I tried all the keys not clearly shown in that picture to no avail [15:25] btw I find a duplicate oe diphtong, that I find curious [15:25] anddam, this symbol you mean ? …' altgr + # (with en int dead key) [15:25] anddam, or unicode 2026 [15:25] ellipsis is … [15:26] ioria: I'm not sure I'm seeing what you typed since my remote host on which I'm using weechat isn't showing unicode [15:26] IIRC ellipsis are ASCII tho' [15:26] yes, i mean … [15:26] i guess you need to activate compose key then and use that with the key left oft shft-r [15:27] installed ubuntu 16.04 LTS. now the TV won't see the dlna server, while other devices can. worked fine in 14.04. anyone with minidlna experience? [15:27] anddam, try unicode > ctrl+alt+u and type 2026 [15:28] k1l_: what's to activate other than choosing a dead key layout? also does right shift really make a difference while composing [15:28] ? [15:28] ioria: I don't get that ctrl-alt-u thing [15:29] anddam: compose key is deactivated on ubuntu on default. but that is needed for the elipsis shown on the picture you showed. [15:30] k1l_: ok, but I'm already using it and I didn't do any specific activation [15:30] ioria: but yes, I want U+2026 [15:32] anddam, i am using the same layout chart , (en international AltGr dead keys) and altgr + # works fine.... [15:34] what does setxkbmap -query say? [15:35] I figure I should have pc104 [15:35] ioria: also what physical layout is your keyboard? [15:35] anddam: try compose+.+. [15:36] anddam, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23982032/ === Spontex is now known as Guest85399 [15:36] ducasse: nope, doesn't compose a thing, I mean even giving a space after that won't type anything in text editor [15:36] im trying to enable apache virtualhost access to only my local network. [15:36] paste.ubuntu.com/23982003/ [15:36] this didnt work [15:36] ioria: mm my variant says just "intl" [15:37] not altgr-intl [15:37] anyone an idea / experience with this? [15:37] anddam: it does here, i get '…' [15:37] ioria: no, my bad, it's altgr-intl [15:37] anddam, so, it's not the dead keys... you need to install it [15:37] anddam, ok [15:37] ducasse: what physical layout? [15:37] ioria: what do you mean? also what's your physical layout? [15:38] anddam, what you mean 'physical ' ? [15:39] I mean how the keys are materially placed on the keyboard, regardless of the layout setup in the operating system, that is a logical layout [15:39] anddam, well, hash (#) it's right before 'enter' keys ... [15:39] my keyboard is physically a PC104, not sure why the installer setup a PC105 [15:40] ioria: and the enter key is horizontal or vertical? [15:40] anddam, both... it's angular [15:40] but hash near the enter key suggests it's an ISO layout, UK language [15:40] if it's English [15:40] anddam, L shaped (but reversed) [15:40] angula means it's vertical [15:41] the common layout in USA is ANSI [15:41] anddam, yes, sorry ... L shaped (but reversed) [15:41] that's what I got with this laptop [15:41] anddam, and the ctrl+alt+u thing not working ? [15:42] so there's this small difference at the very base that doesn't necessarily make a shortcut working for you working for me as well [15:42] ioria: I don't know what's that supposed to do, enter some "unicode endpoint mode"? [15:42] anddam, ys [15:42] anddam, you got a -u- underscored [15:43] ioria: on my system ctrl-alt-u does nothing and then typing 2026 obviously makes '2026' appear in the editor [15:43] anddam, you first need to get the (u) or you can't type unicede [15:44] ok, what's the (u)? [15:44] anddam: use ctrl+shift+u instead [15:44] again I'm running weechat on an ubuntu system that for some reason won't correctly display unicode [15:44] ducasse: yep, that did the trick [15:44] didn't know that [15:44] anddam, yrs, also ctrl+shift+u [15:44] anddam, type 2026 [15:45] ioria: from my POV it's "only" rather than "also" [15:45] it's uncomfortable enough but works [15:45] next question is how do I tell xorg that I have a PC104 [15:45] System settings doesn't make you select the hardware keyboard type === Piece_Maker is now known as Acou_Bass [15:46] anddam, and altGr+# not working ? [15:46] ioria: # is on top of the number 3 [15:46] ioria: and composing it will yield ³ [15:46] that Im not sure you can see [15:46] is a superscript 3 [15:46] it's* [15:46] anddam, ok [15:46] because I don't have an ISO layout [15:47] ioria: what language is your keyboard? [15:48] anddam: setxkbmap -model pc104 [15:49] ducasse: is that permanent? [15:50] no, it's not [15:50] anddam: you need to make it run on x server startup, like in ~/.xsessionrc [15:50] just tried logging out [15:51] ducasse: I'd rather change the config that is setting pc105 in first place [15:51] anddam: sure, but that's not the question you asked :) [15:53] … [15:53] how does that appear? [15:53] yep, that works [15:54] I need to fix this unicode support [15:54] whoever has 5 more minutes of patience please read this about my unicode issue https://gist.github.com/anddam/a9cf3aef9eb58e9924fc87a344e59d22a [15:55] anddam: if weechat is running in an utf8 locale it could be a font issue [15:55] anddam: the link is 404 [15:55] k1l_: the screenshot in the gist or the gist itself? [15:56] neither are 404 for me [15:56] ducasse: the font is the same I use to check unicode support on local system, and that's Unity's default [15:56] ducasse: does that rule it out? [15:56] how to unable auto join to something channel? [15:57] anddam: yes, it was a bad guess to begin with. it's a common glyph. [15:57] anddam: https://gist.github.com/anddam/a9cf3aef9eb58e9924fc87344e59d22a works [15:57] SadBoy981ER: depends on the client [15:58] irssi :) [15:58] k1l_: what does 404? [15:58] anddam: your whole gist link [16:00] correct, it's got a spare 'a' in the middle of the hash [16:00] that's odd [16:00] can someone help me? [16:00] electrolex: with what? [16:00] electrolex: answer is "probably yes" [16:00] Ubuntu won't play wav/aiff in some programs [16:00] SadBoy981ER: have you tried #irssi? [16:01] I've looked everywhere and I can't find solution [16:01] electrolex: so let's play a guessing game where people try to force information about your issue out from you, shall we? [16:01] ? [16:02] ducasse no,i used irssi on lubuntu :) [16:02] whatever… [16:03] electrolex: which programs? [16:04] Hexchat and also some programs in "Wine" [16:04] why [16:05] hexchat runs natively in linux [16:05] I can't hear any sounds in "Wave" format [16:06] so install the codec need to do that [16:06] electrolex: ubuntu-restricted-extras is installed? [16:07] I've tried "unrestricted formats" and "wavpack" (no luck) [16:07] <_sfiguser> if i'm working on a git repo, i just downloaded it... then i work and make some modifications... then i want to merge with a remote branch ... but at this point another one has already modified the branch, how should i manage ? [16:15] _sfiguser: by joining #git [16:15] _sfiguser: it depends on the upstream policy, likely you'll want to rebase [16:15] that is pull using --rebase or fetch and then rebase [16:15] electrolex: do you have an actual error? [16:16] electrolex: for instance by running the program from cli and trying to play a wav [16:16] anddam, it simply doesn't work (I can't hear anything) [16:16] in hexchat [16:16] for sounds [16:16] electrolex: so you should answer "no I don't have that" [16:16] are yuo running the program from CLI? [16:17] CLI? [16:17] you, damn this new keyboard [16:17] command line interface [16:17] no [16:18] are you trying that now? [16:19] anddam, you want me to try running hexchat from CLI? [16:20] yes, I want. Btw doesn't the fact that I explicitly asked about it already suggested that? [16:20] so reconnect? [16:20] if the program then goes and says "I cannot find such and such library" we know what's happening [16:20] ah ok [16:20] smart [16:20] electrolex: can't you run a second instance? [16:20] or reconnect, as long if you check if there's an actual error [16:20] k1l_: got a chance to read that? [16:21] I read some askubuntu entries about unicode in console but I'm not in console [16:21] I'm at pty [16:23] anddam, (process:7274): dconf-CRITICAL **: unable to create file '/run/user/1000/dconf/user': Permission denied. dconf will not work properly. (that's the only error) nothing directly from sound [16:27] electrolex: without an error it's hard to tell how to solve the issue [16:27] ioria, ducasse: I found a reference for the unicode composition https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey#Unicode_composition [16:27] the rest of the page is pretty outdated tho' [16:30] anddam: wikipedia has a page on that with a nice table of the various combos [16:30] ducasse: link please? [16:31] and how do I change the global config of Xorg in order to set pc104 keyboard rather than have a per-session setting? [16:32] anddam: i think this is what i was thinking of - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key#Common_compose_combinations [16:32] salut [16:32] what is the cmd to connect to irc.xxx.xx for example ? [16:33] someone pls . [16:33] ? [16:33] Sowhat, on whaich client [16:33] which [16:33] xchat [16:34] @BlueKaj i would like to connect to different servors without GUI [16:34] xchat is no longer supported, it's old , try hexchat instead [16:34] ah ok [16:34] gonna try thx for the advice ;) [16:34] if you want a konsole type iec client try irsssi or weechat [16:34] downloaded 16.04.1 ubuntu , in ISO format.. is it possible to run it as LIVE CD using demon tools or anything..? [16:34] irc cleint [16:34] ducasse: I see, I read about the third level compose key, is that referred to the plain US layout? [16:35] with the International AltGr variant sihft+altgr doesn't compose a thing [16:35] blackwind_123: what is demon tools? [16:36] blackwind_123: the actual answer is you can run the ISO image you downloaded as live, not sure about the demon tools part yet [16:37] greetings [16:38] I am booting using ubuntu 16.10 live cd. I am trying to install grub into a usb drive. I issued this command: [16:38] grub2-install --target x86_64-efi --efi-directory /mnt --boot-directory /mnt/boot --removable [16:38] anddam : can you let me know steps to run it as live..?? demon tools is kinda emulator, i dont have virtual box or vmare.. hence this question [16:38] but got error that grub2-install does not exist [16:38] I assumed it could be called grub-install .. [16:38] but now it says that /usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi/modinfo.sh dosn't exist [16:39] blackwind_123: I cannot since I don't know demon tools (odd name for an emulator and never heard it before) [16:39] blackwind_123: what do you mean - run live iso on ubuntu? [16:39] blackwind_123: if you want to run the live dump it on an USB flash memory or burn a CD and you're set === si is now known as Guest84691 [16:39] ducasse: he didn't say "on ubuntu" [16:40] anddam: hence my question. [16:40] ducasse: oh I thought that was a quote [16:40] guys, I don't know if this is the right place, but what 'chmod' do I need to apply to /home/ directory, so users can't 'nose' other users directory? thanks in advance [16:40] thanks anddam : [16:40] ducasse: I just reconfigured keyboard-configuration package and I now saw the altgr and compose key questions, but I figure those are just for console [16:41] anddam: demon tools can be thought of as a loop device under windows [16:41] The_Myth: go-rwx [16:41] ducasse: oh, so answer to blackwind_123 is "no way" [16:41] blackwind_123: you'll need an actual emulator [16:42] if i compile a package (and deps), how can i let aptitude knnow? do i have to make a deb? [16:42] anddam: chmod go-rwx /home/* or just /home/? :x [16:42] anddam : yes i think so, going to download virtualbox... :) [16:43] The_Myth: recursively to all the tree if you're worried about nosy neighbors === danny is now known as Guest30470 [16:45] anddam: i'm not certain, but i suspect you might need to configure them under x as well. that is done with setxkbmap. [16:45] pvl1: you don't unless you want to set a repo, you just install it with dpkg -i [16:45] ducasse: but that's going to be a per-session setting, fixing a wrong setting coming from an earlier stage in xinit [16:45] I'd like to setup that earlier stage [16:47] anddam: you can also do it with xorg configuration [16:47] ducasse: where is it? AFAICT I'm running on Xorg autoprobe since there's no xorg.conf [16:47] anddam: you set the exact same flags, just set them in a different way [16:48] should I dump current config and edit the resulting xorg.conf? [16:48] back in a minute [16:48] anddam: you can add a snippet containing just what you want in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d [16:49] ah, good ol' .d config directories [16:49] so just the input section for keyboard [16:49] how do I dump currently running xorg config? [16:49] anddam: yes, i expect there are examples on the arch wiki for example [16:50] arch wiki is excellent [16:50] back in a couple minutes [16:52] Hello [16:52] Is it possible to switch to a different user in bash [16:53] I know I can do, "su - otherUser" but how would I supply a password automatical [16:54] how to I create a custom ubuntu live cd [16:54] ? [16:54] carcabo: http://bfy.tw/A2ts [16:54] every answer I find googling points to a discontinued project (ubuntu builder, uck, remastersys) [16:55] S0bait: You can do sudo followed by the -u flag and the username to spawn a new shell as that user. [16:55] carcabo: then you probably need to do some legwork you apparentl arent trying to do [16:56] pvl1: what do you mean? [16:57] S0bait: You would also have to specify the shell after the username, for e.g. sudo -u root bash [16:57] @aruns my goal is when superuser A executes a shell script, it is run instead as User B [16:57] Hey I just set up ubuntu with i3wm. Can't get xbacklight to control the brightness. When i run just 'xbacklight' I get: 'No outputs have backlight property' [16:57] S0bait: Ah I see. [16:58] carcabo: ubuntu-builder was last updated 2016-04-23 [16:58] S0bait: And you would want to have this shell script run without requiring user B to input their password? [16:59] carcabo: kickstart or fai http://askubuntu.com/questions/409607/how-to-create-a-customized-ubuntu-server-iso [16:59] anddam, maybe found an 'ellipsis' solution that works on every layout [16:59] Hello World! [16:59] aruns: Yes or find a way to supply it [17:00] ioria: "I'm all ears" [17:00] anddam: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo#Step_4:_Build_and_install sudo checkinstall was what i was looking for [17:00] S0bait: Have you considered using sudo with the -H flag? AFAIK this sets the home directory to that of the target user, along with the security settings for that user's home directory [17:00] anddam, are you on Unity ? [17:00] btw the keyboard-configuration helped, now I see unicode in shell [17:00] Can you ellaborate [17:00] S0bait: So I think it will grab the target user's password from the password database, I will run a quick test to confirm. [17:00] ok [17:01] ioria: I am [17:01] yikes.. I accidently deleted /etc/passwd from my vagrant box and now I cannot ssh.. how do i fix this [17:01] anddam, you need to enable the 'Compose key' in keyboard -> shortcuts -> Typing [17:02] anddam, click on 'disabled' and , e.g., select Right ontrol [17:02] *Control [17:02] why does this not install dpkg -i Fern-Wifi-Cracker_1.6_all.deb? Errors were encountered while processing: Fern-Wifi-Cracker_1.6_all.deb [17:03] anddam, then press Right Control and two times period (.) [17:03] S0bait: /etc/passwd isn't synced to your Vagrant box, is it? [17:03] S0bait: Otherwise I would say you should probably just reinstall the Vagrant box. [17:04] Maybe backup what you need from the Vagrant box and copy it over to your host machine, then add to the new Vagrant box. === Piece_Maker is now known as Acou_Bass [17:04] ioria: then ofc I lose right control (that I never use anyway) [17:04] ioria: that's the .+. composition ducasse was talking about, thanks [17:04] anddam, does it works ? [17:05] yep [17:05] something don't work as I expected. I don't want users to get down from their /home/username, but still want their public-html be accessible via web. with chmod go-rwx /home/*, that don't happen. :/ [17:05] that's almost as handy as on macos [17:05] anddam, ok, so you needed to enable it [17:05] yes, it wasn't clear to me that altgr in an altgr variant layout wasn't the same thing as composition key [17:05] why does this not install dpkg -i Fern-Wifi-Cracker_1.6_all.deb? Errors were encountered while processing: Fern-Wifi-Cracker_1.6_all.deb [17:06] anddam, yes, you loose Right Control for other activities [17:06] aruns: Any luck with that test you were doing? [17:06] one thing I wasn't able to figure in Unity control panel is how to set the proper physical keyboard, recnofiguring keyboard-configuration package did the trick but still I figure there should be a GUI setting for that [17:06] anddam, an btw you were right, the 4-th level for ellipssis is broken [17:07] ioria: I haven't catched yet how 4th level works and I don't care right now [17:07] I' good enough with the setup I have now [17:07] anddam, altGr + shift [17:07] odd thing in a default Terminal I cannot use unicode mode [17:07] anddam, altGr + shift is the 4th level [17:07] ???

[17:15] pvl1: never heard it being called 'd' [17:15] aadi: nobody has a clue what a "black screen of a infinite loop" is [17:16] unless it's something at Apple's new HQ [17:16] not found with gdebi after installed it [17:16] anddam: i guess yeah that was a weird thing to call it actually [17:16] or Windows killing itself after an update [17:16] pvl1: ah you just made up some words :-) [17:16] ok lost enough time today [17:16] thanks all for the info [17:17] aadi, can you install from Software & Updates | Additional drivers? [17:17] @topkekarooneys you just say sudo gdebi *the package*.deb and then follow the prompt [17:17] guys any idea how to solve random frezess "kernel panic" ? [17:18] pavlos, i did that but eventually that result in a black screen and i was unable to use my machine until i have removed that nvidia driver installed from Software & Updates | Additional drivers [17:18] mzam: I had an issue with that a while ago. Started booting from an older kernel at the grub screen. Not a solution but it's kept me going till now. [17:19] pavlos: and therefore i am trying to install manualy [17:19] @mzam Depends do you know which kernel you are rocking on your setup once you figure that out you can start to see if this is a common issue if so I would say roll back your kernel [17:19] dean____: my panic happening when i play games or use VM [17:19] I'm getting "W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/kbl_dmc_ver1.bin for module i915_bpo [17:19] aadi, which nvidia card, which ubuntu ? I guess you can run with the nouveau driver for now, right? [17:20] anddam: ignore it, just intel screwing up. [17:20] a quick search didn't show any hint if this is an actual issue (other than a possible one) and how if posssible to get the driver [17:20] ok [17:20] SkyLake [17:20] palvos: i am using NVIDIA GEFORCE 930MX and i am on UBUNTU 16.04LTS [17:20] @mzam are you sure that is a kernel panic? and not lets say your computer that able to handle what you are throwing at it?

[17:23] lantern-shadowcl: 16.04 LTS [17:24] palvos, and i guess that error is because of nouveau driver, right? [17:24] @mzam okay did it or you recently update the kernel?

To exit nano, type Ctrl + X [18:18] aadi: put a "#" at the start of the line that says GRUB_TERMINAL [18:19] EriC^^ +1 that should be fine too [18:19] guest2302948, this is for a vm, but it could work http://www.deepshiftlabs.com/dev_blog/?p=933&lang=en-us [18:19] <_dnb_> Looking for samba help, hopefully something simple: http://pastebin.com/jxnC1XpT [18:19] S0bait: systemd is the default init system now (ubuntu 16.04+) [18:20] EriC^^, OerHeks let me reboot my machine [18:20] aadi, and run sudo update-grub after [18:21] yup ioria :) [18:21] aadi, ok [18:21] aadi: you have to update-gru bfor changes to take effect [18:21] brainwash: Are there any examples I can use ?

[18:36] guest2302948, if isc is running on the server, the client will get the ip from it [18:37] how do i get sed to match a full line? i want to replace only if 'foobar' is full line not if there is anything else on the line [18:37] ioria: didn't want to install/setup/run dhcp server (just need to assign one ip to a specific device) [18:37] sruli: use ^foobar$ [18:37] guest2302948, mmm, ssh connect and run a script [18:38] can't ssh connect cause the device won't get an ip cause there is no dhcp server [18:38] ioria: [18:39] guest2302948, right [18:39] tharkun / EriC^^: rmadison to the rescue https://qa.debian.org/madison.php?package=linux&table=all [18:40] or dak rather [18:40] OerHeks, ioria, that doesn't work :( [18:40] thanks EriC^^: google has become a nightmare, try searching it for "sed match full line" in first few pages all results were about replacing full line! [18:40] guest2302948, why don't you set it static and then ssh and do what you want [18:40] aadi, what it's not working ? [18:41] what would i have to do to replace gnome keyring with keepassx? [18:42] ioria: then I would have to have a displyport to hdmi adapter to get a monitor working :) [18:42] menace: You'd need to patch the sources of all gnome applications that use the keyring. Or you just dont use the keyring at all and use keypassx instead, manually. [18:43] ioria, I asked about undoing a command [18:43] oh, that's hardcoded? :( [18:43] aadi, cat /etc/default/grub [18:44] guest2302948, maybe you need to elaborate your issue (not only what you want to achieve) [18:45] ioria: got a raspberry pi with an sd card (raspbian on it) I only can connect via network that's it (raspbian is preconfigured to use dynamic ips) [18:47] ioria, what will that do i.e cat /etc/default/grub do?

[18:50] guest2302948, can you paste the output of 'ip a' ? [18:50] ioria, I have commented that GRUB_GFXMODE [18:50] how come ubuntu has different repos than debian? like can i install .deb's from later versions of debian as long as the platofrms match?

I have no access to the pi cause no ssh cause no ip cause no dhcpd :) [18:52] brainwash: im sorry but can you please elaborate? like why would it matter if i can usually find the debs? [18:52] i meant this probably shouldbe on #ubuntu-arm tbh [18:53] pvl1: well.. what are you trying to do? [18:53] what is the goal? [18:53] pvl1, ubuntu packages might be build different than debian packages. [18:53] guest2302948, no physical access to it ?

[18:58] hi [18:58] ioria, pasted :) [18:58] dork: i just find that its easier to test/script from the shell with sed than in vim. but maybe thats because im not good with regex or all of vim yet [18:59] gambl0re hi [18:59] aadi, give us the url [18:59] xpistos: is it all 2017? [18:59] ioria, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23983477/ [18:59] dork: it is right now, but it won't be next year etc [18:59] thnk bekks [19:00] lerner, a thought ... netstat -i; wget http://bbc.co.uk ; netstat -i [19:00] ioria: just asked on the pi channel they told me just to mount the image (raspbian) and modify the /etc/network/interfaces file -> stupid me [19:00] ioria: so just remove the sd card with the os and modify the file on another machine [19:01] aadi, and you wanted to comment GRUB_TERMINAL=console ? [19:01] xpistos: if the lines you want to zap all and only those lines contain 2017 just do :g/-2017//g [19:02] once the data gets a bit more complicated i would expand it with sed and some bash scripting [19:03] thats what i was getting at [19:03] but ty dork now i know how to delete lines with regex :) [19:05] ioria, Yes [19:06] aadi, because it's still commented out ; this cmd simply remove the '#' ('s/#GRUB_TERMINAL/GRUB_TERMINAL/g') , so to revert you edit the file and put an '#' before [19:07] ioria: thx for helping, bye [19:07] guest2302948, ok [19:08] ioria, Let me reboot my machine :) [19:13] ioria, Also i saw that my machine is now booting up by GNU v2.something which is not the latest, so how can i upgrade to latest one? === _dnb__ is now known as _dnb_ [19:13] aadi: how do you know its not the latest? [19:13] aadi: And why do you want another version than supplied by the official ubuntu repos? === dikdik_ is now known as fuzzbutt [19:14] when will be the next class ? === fuzzbutt is now known as dikdik [19:15] hello? [19:15] hi [19:15] hi [19:15] The Ubuntu repos contain old software [19:15] im having trouble with chrome running ubuntu in a vm [19:16] Can't get GCC 6 [19:16] i keep getting 'Your connection is not private' whenever i try to access google [19:16] do you know whats wrong [19:16] dikdik: yes [19:16] dikdik, there is a test in toolchain http://askubuntu.com/questions/746369/how-can-i-install-and-use-gcc-6-on-xenial [19:16] I need that GCC 6 for LTO [19:17] if you absolutely really no-way-around it need it, intsall the testing toolchain [19:17] but it's unstable [19:17] bekks, Earlier i was viewing V3.something and with purple screen now I am viewing V2.something with black screen ; thats why i am asking [19:17] aadi: There never was grub v3. [19:17] aadi: that thing does not exist yet. [19:17] !info gcc-6 [19:17] gcc-6 (source: gcc-6): GNU C compiler. In component main, is optional. Version 6.2.0-5ubuntu12 (yakkety), package size 7185 kB, installed size 25271 kB [19:18] aadi, please show us :-D [19:18] I bootstrapped GCC 6 [19:19] dikdik: what ubuntu are you running? [19:19] 16.04 [19:19] !info gcc-6 xenial [19:19] Package gcc-6 does not exist in xenial [19:19] if you really need gcc-6, there's a ppa for it [19:19] dikdik, why you say outdated, as 16.04 is LTS = stable ? [19:20] https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test [19:20] The OS is not outdated [19:20] bekks, shit :"( but now i am viewing a black colour one and earlier was purple one :( so i got confused :"( [19:20] the software in the repos is [19:20] :P [19:20] dikdik: that's got a gcc6. but ppas aren't stable, so use at your own risk [19:20] dikdik, have fun with that ppa [19:20] PPA? [19:20] especially with that [19:21] user-provided package repos [19:21] dikdik: you said you bootstrapped gcc6 yourself [19:21] does that not suffice for using lto? [19:23] I don't need to use a PPA if I compiled it myself :P [19:23] no you don't [19:23] what do you need then? [19:24] I don't need anything, just complaining :P [19:24] right, how useful ;) [19:25] dikdik: #crybaby :P [19:25] ubuntu uses a stable release model [19:25] if that's not to your liking, there's other distributions that don't [19:27] Yeah, Stability annoys me.. I think I need to switch :) [19:28] Ubuntu just wants to keep things stable and doesnt want to get the latest stuff. Switch to a rolling release distribution if you need this. That doesnt fit security issues. Compiling yourself does work too but isn't that handy because of manual lookup of newer releases, fixes, patches,... [19:28] Arch sucks though [19:28] dikdik: why? its rr and not unstable. [19:28] I just needed LTO for one stupid thing I tried to uild [19:29] And now it is built [19:30] dikdik: you may switch to #gentoo but there are rumours that you have to compile a server and irc-client yourself to join that channel :P [19:32] I built IRSSI from source :P [19:32] No servers though [19:32] which debian corressponds to 12.04? [19:33] pvl1, cat /etc/debian_version [19:33] dikdik: :D [19:33] lol ty [19:33] np [19:35] how to read big books faster? plz help over 1000 pages come on lol :) [19:35] skip the odd pages [19:36] hello [19:36] hello [19:36] i am trying to use "magicrescue" to recover the content of a deleted folder [19:36] problem is i don't know how to specify the path of the original deleted folders [19:37] i started "magicrescue" and i've got in the output folder, a lot of recovered unnamed files ..but which are already on the disk in other folders [19:37] looks like "magicrescue" is wasting time watching in other folders ... i am not interested in [19:38] more than that.. i don't know how will i know which file is which? [19:39] rescue, i am afraid you need to examine each file, same issue with testdisk [19:39] names are not easily recovered [19:40] ok. but if it takes more than 2 week-man to examine files, it is better ttry rewriting files by hand..isn't it? [19:42] Depends on what the files contain [19:42] i get error trying to unrar a file so i try to install unrar-nonfree. anyone knows how to do that? [19:42] i am on 16.04.1 [19:43] sudo apt install unrar === xrandr_ is now known as xrandr_laptop [19:45] ware do i find help with metasploiut [19:46] numnum: probably on their website [19:46] numnum, #metasploit has its own channel [19:46] oh cool [19:46] ppf: unrar doesn't work for this file [19:47] manual > http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man1/unrar-nonfree.1.html [19:48] owen1: then it's no a rar file [19:48] ppf: it worked! i followed your advice and at the end of the installation i saw 'update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/unrar-nonfree to provide /usr/bin/unrar (unrar) in auto mode' [19:49] hi, i have a problem with vdpau not working.

[20:10] Hi there. How to change this service into the new systemctl ? http://pastebin.com/8cnuJzZG [20:10] what's the latest ubuntu channel? [20:10] how would i downgrade chrome [20:11] gambl0re, not. [20:11] google does not keep old vrsions available. [20:12] but i cant access google.com in chrome...i keep getting 'your connection is not private' message [20:12] is there a channel for 17.04 ubuntu, I'm having an issue with gnome evolution, and other's are having the same issue on arch, but I don't know whether to log a bug or not [20:12] hi [20:12] dr4c4n, #ubuntu+1 for next releases [20:13] thanks :) found it on the website :) [20:13] fizikz: All I can say is that the driver is correct. per : http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_32667.html . I am stuck here as " ii mate-optimus " is put of my experience ramge. I do not know what to advise in this case. [20:14] *out of my experience [20:15] gambl0re, on what chrome verion? [20:15] c/version [20:15] latest 56 [20:16] ive been trying to fix with another dude for the past hour [20:16] current is 55, so you are not on ubuntu, are you? [20:16] http://imgur.com/a/3NxRx [20:16] Bashing-om: mate-optimus was installed by ubuntu-mate-desktop, to get the MATE DE, but i am not using optimus [20:16] http://imgur.com/a/CDaIk [20:16] fizikz, just a try: install libvdpau1 and vdpau-va-driver and restart [20:17] http://imgur.com/a/50xDB [20:17] hi [20:17] does ubuntu enables fstrim by default for SSDs? [20:17] no [20:17] dviola: yes [20:18] thanks [20:18] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqKafI7Amd8 [20:18] gambl0re, 1st paste is windows, 2nd paste is an odd url, https://www.google.co.uk/?gfe bla bla try https://www.google.co.uk/ [20:19] yea i cant access google.com in chrome [20:19] firefox works fine [20:19] so i dont know what to do [20:19] ioria: those packages are already installed. maybe a good idea to reinstall? or even reinstall the nvidia drivers? [20:19] try https://www.google.co.uk/ without the unusual garbage behind it. [20:20] i think that comes from a posted link, not your home button [20:21] fizikz: I have attempted in past issues to deal with mate-optimus - just do not have the skills to know what to do with it . [20:21] it doesnt work [20:21] ExecStart=xx isn't working anymore for some reason.. [20:21] gambl0re, if that does not solve it, contact the chrome, where you got 56... [20:21] What is the equalivant? [20:21] gambl0re: using any proxies vpns or company network? [20:21] no im using home network [20:22] gambl0re: are you at home or som wifi [20:22] homr [20:22] fizikz, idk, sy [20:22] Bashing-om: mate-optimus has caused issues in the past? it should not be running/enabled for me, since my graphics card doesn't even support optimus [20:23] ioria: np, thx for the ideas [20:26] gambl0re: the cert of that page is broken. you can manually proceed when you click on advanced and then "proceed to .... (unsafe)" [20:26] gambl0re: talk to google.co.uk about that issue [20:26] k1l, current is chrome 55, so gambl0re is using unstable.. [20:26] fizikz, it's an old thread ... see if it helps https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1505854 [20:27] OerHeks: no, 56 is the current stable [20:27] 55 is chromium [20:27] * OerHeks runs updates again [20:27] i dont see that - proceed to.... [20:28] they mustve removed it in v56 [20:28] gambl0re: google.co.uk does work in my chrome. maybe its a dns or ISP issue [20:29] it works on firefox [20:30] oh my bad, restarting chrome now [20:30] gambl0re: try it in a private tab [20:30] no [20:31] no? [20:31] https://www.google.co.uk/ works fine here, without the garbage behind that url [20:32] it doenst work in incognito [20:33] ioria: interesting hint. could this be a problem? > $ ls -la /usr/lib/libvdpau_nvidia.so [20:33] lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 51 Nov 6 17:57 /usr/lib/libvdpau_nvidia.so -> /etc/alternatives/i386-linux-gnu_libvdpau_nvidia.so [20:33] fizikz, are you 32 bit ? [20:33] ioria: yes === krzysztof is now known as Guest65717 [20:36] can i somehow reset the sources.list on my ubuntu [20:36] without messign up already installed stuff [20:36] styler2go: Reset to what? [20:37] bekks "factory" e.g. default values [20:37] styler2go: Then you will not receive updates for packages from PPA, etc. anymore. [20:37] fizikz, do you have a /usr/lib/nvidia-current/vdpau/libvdpau_nvidia.so file ? [20:37] can i somehow remove all packages from ppas? [20:37] styler2go: whats the underlying problem that you are trying to solve? [20:38] styler2go: ppa-purge [20:38] hi all [20:38] bekks: i get those errors on apt update: E: Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial-updates/main/dep11/Components-amd64.yml.xz Hash Sum mismatch [20:38] like 5 errors [20:38] styler2go: Resetting sources.list will not magically solve it. [20:38] and when i try to install something i get: E: Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gst-libav1.0/gstreamer1.0-libav_1.8.2-1~ubuntu1_amd64.deb 404 Not Found [IP: 141.30.13.10 80] [20:38] i might have added soem faulty ppas [20:39] ioria: yes, and the alternatives file links to it: $ ls -l /etc/alternatives/i386-linux-gnu_libvdpau_nvidia.so [20:39] lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 44 Nov 6 17:57 /etc/alternatives/i386-linux-gnu_libvdpau_nvidia.so -> /usr/lib/nvidia-304/vdpau/libvdpau_nvidia.so [20:39] styler2go: the errors you just told us relate to official sources, not to PPA. [20:39] hmm [20:39] so why do i have those [20:40] styler2go: The firest error tells you there is a mismatch in a hash sum, the second tells you that the file requested isnt there, which tells you that your package lists are outdated. [20:40] so the second one is an fault of the first one i assume? [20:40] i know what they say but i am not sure why i get these errors hmm [20:41] why does sudo thunar return No protocol specified Thunar: Cannot open display: ? [20:41] bekks: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23984200/ [20:41] this never happened before [20:42] styler2go: Did you try using archive.ubuntu.com instead of de.archive...? === krzyszto1 is now known as elc [20:42] there's an error in DEP-11.. what's DEP-11? [20:42] isn't that ppa? [20:42] styler2go: No. [20:42] humm [20:43] styler2go, you could try: sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* && sudo apt-get update [20:44] Hash Sum mismatch usually happens when you use a proxy [20:44] Will purge the cache and reload all? [20:45] It will purge the lists & hashsums [20:45] Ok did it, same errors on those DEP-11 files: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23984221/ [20:45] styler2go: Did you try using archive.ubuntu.com instead of de.archive...? [20:46] Not yet... should i? [20:46] did you run apt update recently? [20:46] styler2go: Guess why I am asking you. [20:46] sudo sed -i "s/de.archive.ubuntu/archive.ubuntu/" /etc/apt/sources.list ? [20:46] yes, ppf [20:46] okay [20:47] fizikz, sudo update-alternatives --config libvdpau_nvidia.so what it says ? [20:47] trying without de. now [20:47] worked perfectly [20:48] Is the german mirror faulty? [20:48] ioria: update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for libvdpau_nvidia.so [20:48] styler2go: No. [20:48] styler2go: looks like. i'm seeing the same errors [20:48] woah [20:48] should we report that somewhere? [20:49] styler2go: you just hit a race condition where the package list contents dont match the filesystem, due to updating them from the main mirror. [20:49] styler2go: No. :) [20:49] bekks: unlikely [20:49] ppf: Why? [20:50] because i have the same errors for dep-11 right now [20:50] ppf: because you are hitting the same race condition... [20:50] which kind of race condition? [20:50] 0212 214904 < bekks> styler2go: you just hit a race condition where the package list contents dont match the filesystem, due to updating them from the main mirror. [20:50] styler2go: the one I already explained to you. [20:50] i am not sure if i can correctly understand "race condition" lol [20:50] bekks: that's not an explanation really ; [20:50] ) [20:51] ppf: Reakky, why not? [20:51] but.. didn't i clean the cache? [20:51] *Really [20:51] styler2go: you cleaned your cache, but you did not magically make the package lists on the server match the filesystem content on the server. [20:51] oh [20:52] so it was still a server problem? [20:52] to clarify, where's the race condition? between myself and the repo servers, or between the repo server and the upstream mirror? [20:52] ppf: I just clarified it. [20:52] Why doesn't the backup user have write privileges in it's home directory? (/var/backups) [20:52] bekks: yes, fair enough [20:52] would it be bad to change ownership of /var/backups to the backup user? [20:53] bekks but if i would like to clean up my ubuntu from third-party stuff, ppa-purge would be my tool? [20:53] styler2go: If you are using PPA, yes. [20:53] cool [20:54] actually never heared of it but got a nice explanation on askubuntu right now [20:54] hi guys can someone point me to a nice ssh guide? [20:54] fizikz, it's probably a 'driver' conflict or miscofiguration, but idk how to safely help you [20:55] Doow: Huh ?? /var/ generally is not under any users home . see the result : ' ls -ld /var/ ' . where it is root that owns and is grouped . [20:55] ioria: what would be a good way to reinstall the driver? [20:56] fizikz, maybe, try [20:56] Bashing-om, maybe it's something I changed and I forgot, but I don't think so. cat /etc/passwd lists the backup users home dir as /var/backups [20:56] fizikz, ot try the solution in the link i posted [20:57] Bashing-om, but yes, it's the root user that owns /var/backups right now (and hence my problem) [20:58] I'm trying to write some backup scripts and gpg wants to create the .gnupg directory in the backup users home directory [20:58] Hello, I'm trying to download Ubuntu 16.10 via bittorrent and I'm getting 403 [20:59] Just checked and the same is happening for all of the bittorent options [21:00] Same for non-bittorent as well [21:01] Doow: My system: "backup:x:34:34:backup:/var/backups:/usr/sbin/nologin" . As to a backup script . never encountered such in my writting . just do not know . [21:01] technocf: I have no trouble getting the .torrent files, what exact url are you using? [21:01] Bashing-om: ok, thanks anyway :) [21:01] Doow: All the downloads give me 403, this is the torrent: http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.10/ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent [21:02] Same happens with the ISO: [21:02] http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.10/ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso [21:02] technocf: odd, that works for me (at least the torrent) [21:02] Doow: Does the ISO give you 403? [21:03] let me check [21:03] These are the official downloads from links on the homepage [21:03] torrent works here fine too [21:03] technocf: iso works fine as well [21:03] Well why on earth do I get a 403 :/ [21:03] technocf: could it be your isp blocking them? [21:04] Dont see why they would [21:04] technocf: or some location specific thing, maybe you're redirected to a different server than me (I'm in sweden) [21:04] Anyway, the 403 is coming from "Apache on Ubuntu Server at releases.ubuntu.com" [21:05] technocf, oh, not in your torrent client? [21:06] No, cant even get the file [21:06] try http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/ [21:06] i suspect a server issue with us, ubuntu.com [21:06] ioria: after changing the symlink do i need to reboot or restart X for it to take effect with the driver? [21:06] Downloads from there fine [21:06] Didn't even know about this site before you sent me that [21:06] Hi, kinda new to linux here, I want to install ubuntu server on my computer, however I plan upgrading the ram quite soon,will I have to reinstall/modify files after upgrading ram or does ubuntu server automatically detects it? [21:06] still i tried your url, which works fine for me [21:07] randomdude128: Ubuntu will detect it. [21:08] does anyone know about vsftpd here? [21:08] velusuni: what if? [21:08] bekks, ? [21:08] dunno if it's appropriate for hits channel but: what are people using for archival long term storage nowadays? (ie: not data center: home PC environment) [21:08] velusuni, ask your real question, wait and see [21:08] velusuni: How about just asking your actual vsftpd question? [21:09] this channel [21:09] k9_bloke, anything but ssd. [21:09] i have setup vsftpd but when i try to upload i get Response: 553 Could not create file. and fails to upload the file [21:10] k9_bloke: HDD, optical storage or what? [21:10] 7 [21:10] k9_bloke, there are warnings that if you keep data over 1 year on ssd ( without power), files may get corrupted or not readable at all. [21:10] OerHeks, tks.. flash sticks cannot be included as ssd, irght? [21:10] velusuni: So you dont have write permissions in the folder where you are trying to upload files to. [21:10] ok thanks [21:11] k9_bloke, not sure about that [21:11] elias_a, this is my doubt: isn't optical soon to be vanished? [21:12] elias_a, I mean, no more drives manufacturing - and we all end up with hundreds of disks that cannot be read [21:13] OerHeks, I was thinking about flash sticks - but that 1 year stuff is puzzling me - tks! [21:13] k9_bloke: Well... if you can spare bucks for a real RAID NAS that is good IMHO. [21:15] k9_bloke: i use a raid 1 NAS and a single (usually disconnected) USB disk as backup [21:15] elias_a, so you mean redundant electro mechanical - yah, it may be costly :D [21:16] for two people with quick upload rate a backup on each others cloud service would be perfect [21:16] Is there a good guide available for the default accounts in ubuntu? their responsibilites, and how they're set up by default? [21:17] ezfox, alright NAS got 2 hits - ill look for that (think its network storage) [21:17] I tried checking the server documentation, but couldn't see anything [21:18] thanks a lot guys! [21:18] k9_bloke: check synology and qnap [21:18] ezfox, ok, tks [21:21] Hi on shutdown this message appeared: "install and generate color profiles" or somethibg [21:21] What does that mean? === zaphod is now known as Guest801 [21:31] Hi on shutdown a message appeared saying "generating and installing color profiles" or something what does that mean? [21:39] hey guys, how long does it usually take for gparted to shrink an hfs+ partition? [21:39] im shrinking as far as I possibly can [21:39] w/ no remaining space afterwards [21:41] unity does not seem to honor StartupWMClass if the desktop file is not in the "applications" dir :/ [21:41] Hi, i need help with my settings in ubuntu 16.04, my setup is: i7 3.0 gHz, 16 GB DDR4, GTX 980M 8GB, m.2 disk - Screen 165hz ROG swift 27". i cant get ubuntu to run smooth, when moving windows its like i have terrible refreshrate in the desktop. screantearing when moving windows arround. it works perfect in games and all runs smooth there, but my DE is not pleasing at all. i have the latest nvidia [21:41] drivers installed and active. [21:42] proprietary drivers, right [21:42] yes [21:43] does the problem occur in other DEs? [21:43] problem might be that in the DE, my laptop only runs with the built in intel HD graphics [21:43] yes, i have tried Unity/ubuntu default, XFCE, openbox, KDE [21:44] well even with intel graphics, the performance should be good [21:44] all have the same problem [21:44] well it sucks to be honest [21:44] :) [21:45] any thoughts of what might do the trick? [21:45] ok [21:45] try glxinfo [21:46] make sure its using the correct card [21:46] do you have prime installed [21:46] (nvidia-prime) [21:47] im now in germany and the clock app shows the day names in german, but I need them in english and month before day. where do I reconfigure that? [21:47] glxinfo tells me im using nvidia drivers and card [21:47] nvidia prime? what is that :) [21:48] you should have it installed already if you have the proprietary drivers [21:48] k [21:48] im confused tbh [21:48] you could try blacklisting the intel card [21:49] no, dont do that [21:49] do you know if you have hardware musxing [21:49] *muxing [21:49] what is that? [21:49] muxing? :) [21:49] basically, is there an option to turn off your intel card in the bios [21:50] on some laptops, the dGPU goes through the iGPU to display to the screen [21:50] iirc its a laptop, [21:50] so i should blacklist the intel card in bios... [21:50] Lanevall: np [21:50] no [21:50] hi k1l [21:50] if there is an option, that should work [21:51] and if there is not an option for it? [21:51] as long as you are sure you dont need it to get a display [21:51] Lanevall: open the nvidia settings and look under the prime profiles [21:51] then we need to find another solution [21:51] listen to k1l [21:51] he knows more than me [21:51] i need it when my 27" is not plugged in ofc [21:51] okej [21:52] shud be able to assign onboard sound card to default system sounds and other programs to the mixer ?? no??

[22:12] k1l: Xubuntu 16.04 LTS [22:12] will try nvidia-prime then [22:13] ezfox: if you install the nvidia driver from the ubuntu repo it will work. but make sure to clean out all bumblebee stuff you used now. [22:13] okidoki === Trystam is now known as Tristam [22:20] hi is ubuntu 14.04 still supported? [22:20] yes [22:21] cool [22:21] !14.04 | hehehe [22:21] hehehe: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) was the 20th release of Ubuntu. Download at http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ - CHECK FOR POINT RELEASES at http://releases.ubuntu.com - Release Info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes [22:21] 14.04 is still a great server [22:21] i think so too [22:22] I run 8 Ubuntu servers and 7 of them are 14.04 [22:22] hehehe: keep in mind, that not all pacakges do have 5 years support, so some might not have support left after april [22:22] kll means no security updates? [22:24] hehehe: and not bug fixes. ubuntu/canonical only supports the packages in main repo. in universe its the community that makes the support and teams like kubuntu or lubuntu only say they can give 3 years. [22:27] and in mean time sudo apt-get upgrade upgrades all packages right? [22:27] what if I complied some? those need manual upgrade? [22:28] hehehe, use apt-get full-upgrade [22:28] hehehe: first run apt update to get the new packages list. then apt full-upgrade [22:29] what if I use sudo apt-get upgrade ? [22:29] hehehe: yes, packages from 3rd party repos or own compiled code is not supported by ubuntu obviously [22:29] hehehe: it doesnt install new kernels, for example [22:29] hehehe: Also see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases . [22:30] but it install security patches? [22:30] hehehe: no. not all. some need to change other packages which only "upgrade" is not allowed to. so run apt full-upgrade [22:31] plo [22:31] oki [22:34] Hello. Had to reinstall, cause when I tried to install nvidia via the ubuntu mate welcome/additional drivers, it did'nt finish all the way. The progress bar stopped right before the end. I rebooted, and gui wouldn't load, just had a blocks test text and a underline blinking randomly on black screen after booting. Is it safe to just try again, or should I do something else? [22:35] running ubuntu mate btw :-) [22:35] nicklas, i think you need to be more patient, the driver install can take some minutes, depending on the speed of your machine [22:36] it must compile the driver/dkms and such [22:36] well, i waited for a pretty long time [22:36] hm [22:36] how long? [22:36] you dont think it matters that its ubuntu mate? [22:36] nope [22:36] never had this problem in regular ubuntu, kubuntu or xubuntu [22:37] u mean lubuntu? [22:37] i mean, its the same base, so shoudnt matter i guess [22:37] lubuntu too [22:37] this is ubuntu mate [22:39] doesnt matter for the base system and video drivers what ubuntu flavor you use [22:40] in terms of viruses, nowdays is ubuntu subject to some? or nope? [22:41] firefox had some security bugs but ok its not ubuntu related [22:41] all software is subject to viruses [22:41] dimisdas: well ok u mean outside facing software [22:41] well, which one? http://www.dumpt.com/img/viewer.php?file=xg9uqbq3w3aev813njbg.png i chose the tested one last time [22:42] hehehe: software has bugs that can lead to security issues. so its important that the software gets updates when such bugs get known. that is what the ubuntu security team does. see ubuntu.com/usn [22:43] nicklas: the 367 version driver :) [22:43] okidoki :-) [22:44] whats the best way to reinstall google chrome [22:45] hmm [22:45] alot of holes [22:45] :D [22:46] sudo apt-get purge chromium-browser && rm ~/.config/chromium/ -rf # and reinstall [22:47] last line was wrong > sudo apt-get purge google-chrome-browser && rm ~/.config/google-chrome/ -rf # and reinstall === quarters_ is now known as quarters === ubuntu is now known as Guest90633 [22:55] Well, its's stuck again. What to do? [22:56] nicklas: what means stuck? [22:56] nicklas: it needs to compile some kernel modules, that can take some time [22:57] I know, but it shouldn't take this long. [22:57] what is "this long"? [22:58] http://www.dumpt.com/img/viewer.php?file=mzzpqqnahzj1ozr4tzy9.png [22:59] just wait ..

[23:06] elisa871: why dont you install the python stuff from ubuntu? like python-cffi pacakge? [23:09] k1l: Iinstalled python-cffi and it still says it can't find cffi module when I run jupyter notebook [23:10] is it using python3? then python3-cffi [23:11] iirc /home/mona/.cache/pip/ should not be owned by (ALL) [23:12] !info ipython-notebook [23:12] ipython-notebook (source: ipython): interactive Python html notebook.

[23:12] hey all, I have a need for an email server that doesn't take forever and a day to setup, I just need something that I can set up for my one game server to send out autentication emails and be done, anything like that? [23:12] Guy1524, no. [23:12] OerHeks: is there any way to check on progress? [23:13] Guy1524: Not unless you have a known good backup and time to put the FS back to the way it was [23:13] gartral: forget it if you dont want to have a spam server that gets blocked by everyone [23:13] k1l: I kinda need it [23:14] no python 2.7 k1l` [23:14] level1linus (a utube channel made a few videos on that topic, you might wanna check them out [23:14] *linux [23:14] elisa871: use the ubuntu package for notebook.

[23:29] hi [23:29] is it safe nowdays to update from lubuntu 14.04 to 16.04? [23:29] yes [23:29] "safe" yes, always backup important data [23:29] so most bugs are gone from 16.04? [23:30] but as always: if you have backups murphys law doesnt strike [23:30] tomorrow is the release of 16.04.2 [23:30] OerHeks: then maybe best to wait?
