[00:00] When I did `apt upgrade`, it' [00:00] mellowmaroon: tell us whats going mate [00:00] woops. It'd hang on "dkms" post-install stuff [00:01] I read somewhere else it might be from using NVidia proprietary drivers, which I had on. [00:01] the only thing bothering me is the X update that comes with HWE stack [00:02] I guess my question is, how long should the DKMS thing be running? It doesn't really give any indication of status... [00:03] Apart from apt's default bar, but that was stuck as it was trying to do the DKMS thing [00:03] mellowmaroon: how long did you let it sit at that point? [00:03] Probably 15-30 min [00:04] I had to wait for the same DKMS thing on my desktop (what I'm using now), but it only took like about a min [00:06] And I couldn't really use apt after that point, because it would keep wanting to continue the update [00:06] Like, when I forcibly quit [00:07] im trying to upgrade hwe stack, im on 14.04.5 with kernel 3.13.0-110-generic. i used command " sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-core-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-xenial libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts-xenial libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-xenial libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-xenial:i386 libglapi-mesa-lts-xenial:i386 " and i [00:07] got error "E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages." here is the log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24049894/ [00:08] azizLIGHT: are you fully dist-upgraded to start? [00:08] nacc: yes [00:08] @azizLIGHT: That also looks like output from apt-mark [00:09] azizLIGHT: like when you do "apt-mark hold xyz" [00:09] i dont think ive ever done that? [00:10] Ok, it might be that the system did it automatically then. Just something to check out maybe [00:10] I'm not really sure, just noticed it was similar [00:10] nacc: i just did sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and it installed 0 packages [00:11] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [00:13] azizLIGHT: well i'm not able to help too much, you can try and manually install those 5 packages [00:13] azizLIGHT: if they install, then try the same HWE install command again [00:14] any ebook text to speech recommended? [00:15] hey I'm reinstalling ubuntu 16.04 [00:15] and when I go to partitions [00:17] I can see /dev/sda and /dev/sdb [00:17] is that normal? [00:17] I already erased everything [00:17] I just want to start from scracth..I will only use ubuntu [00:17] j4f-shredder: those aren't partitions, but disks, so y es, i fyou ahve two disks [00:17] I deleted windoes [00:17] j4f-shredder: sda is 1st data device recongnized, sdb the 2nd . [00:17] j4f-shredder, it doesn't matter as long as you have more than one drive plugged in [00:17] hello [00:17] Hi [00:17] any brazillian guy? [00:17] noooo [00:17] I think I wiped my whole disk [00:17] is there any way of reverting this [00:17] I didn;t moved forward yet [00:17] !br | Saigaung [00:17] Saigaung: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para entrar no canal por favor faça "/join #ubuntu-br " sem as aspas. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, use #ubuntu-pt. Obrigada. [00:17] i am iniciant on english and ubuntu [00:17] !recovery | j4f-shredder [00:17] j4f-shredder: If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode. For instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode [00:17] nono [00:17] Im not trying to recover [00:17] j4f-shredder, that is another issue. Regarding the two disks, I'd be worried if you couldn't find both there if you have two disks :D [00:17] j4f-shredder: if you wiped a disk, you can't really recover it [00:17] Im on the step [00:17] j4f-shredder: depends on what 'wipe' is [00:17] where you defined partitions [00:17] j4f-shredder: Sorry wring factoid . , Wait one and I hunt up the reference . [00:17] and I havent confirmed [00:17] j4f-shredder: Are you trying to erase what's on the drive?? [00:17] exit [00:18] I can see the sdb with all the partitions [00:18] and the hdd which is the sda but doesnt show anything [00:18] the hdd has only movies and data [00:18] the sdb shows the windows partition and the ubuntu one [00:18] j4f-shredder: Ok, choose which one you want Ubuntu to erase and replace [00:19] I want to erase everything from that partitionyes [00:19] j4f-shredder: So choose it [00:19] should I put create new partition table? [00:19] delete Ubuntu + Windows partitions and create a new partition [00:19] j4f-shredder: Yeah, create a new partition table if you want to start from scratch [00:19] j4f-shredder: ' sudo parted -l ' so you know which device is the install target ! [00:20] now [00:20] which partitions should I create? [00:20] to do it the right way [00:20] for the swap zone, etc [00:20] I had troubles before for not doing this properly [00:20] that's why I'm asking [00:21] depends on how much memory your PC has [00:21] 256 gb [00:21] ssd [00:21] memory [00:21] 8 gb [00:21] Ok, you might need then some swap space [00:21] but which partitions and in what order should I create them [00:22] how much memory you have does not determine if you need swap space on its own [00:22] I just want to know how the pro's do this thing [00:22] e.g., if you are never loading your system, then you don't need swap [00:22] I always mess up with this step [00:22] I use virtual machines [00:22] for android dev [00:22] the you probably want swap as you're liable to overcommit your host [00:22] Create one partition of 8162 megabytes [00:22] Create one partition of 8192 megabytes [00:22] that will be swap [00:23] two partitions of 8196 [00:23] or 1? [00:23] No, sorry [00:23] gsilva: careful, if you say it that way, j4f-shredder will create two [00:23] just one with 8192 megabytes [00:23] does the order matters? [00:23] Yea, wanted to fix just the number but pressed enter accidentally. Apologies [00:23] I don't think so. nacc, could you help here? [00:23] there has always been discussions about this, but for SSDs i don't think it matters [00:24] for rotating disks, there was some argument for putting it at the end of the disk [00:24] nacc: those packages installed but took like 100 mb :/ [00:24] imma restart before i try hwe command again [00:24] brb [00:24] which in this case is first the OS then Swap [00:24] j4f-shredder, then create another partition with the remaining size and that is where you will install Ubuntu [00:24] its asking me for type of partition (Primary or logical) . Location of the new partition(Beggining of this space/end of this space . Use as: (swap area?) Mount point: ?? [00:25] In which step are you? [00:25] i think the default partitioning is probably sufficient for most people. I tend to use a single /, no swap and don't have a problem running VMs and containers [00:25] could you provide values for those options for both partitions? [00:25] If you're creating the swap partition, tick the use as swap [00:25] they can both be primary, if you have nothing else [00:25] I dont have that option [00:25] I just need exact values [00:25] you just wrote that [00:25] cause thats the hard part [00:26] gsilva: they were asking a question, i think, in the parens [00:26] j4f-shredder: use as: swap [00:26] type of partition (Primary or logical) . Location of the new partition(Beggining of this space/end of this space . Use as: (swap area?) Mount point: [00:26] j4f-shredder: don't put your thoughts in the quotes [00:26] j4f-shredder: it makes it impossible to help you [00:26] e.g., "(swap area?") [00:26] lets start with the beggining [00:26] j4f-shredder: we don't know if that's you or ubuntu saying that [00:26] type: primary, location: beginning, use as: swap [00:26] nono, its ubuntu [00:27] except for the use as: [00:27] The remaining part should disappear [00:27] j4f-shredder: right, as I *just* said. [00:27] which has other options like ext [00:27] j4f-shredder: so don't do that if you want efficient help... [00:27] I don't recall which one to use... fat32 I think [00:27] for swap? [00:27] it left 1 mb before the swap [00:27] swap is its own fs type [00:27] is that normal? [00:27] Oh, we're still in swap, sorry :D [00:28] recovery stuff, yes [00:28] gsilva: and ext4 for the primary / partition [00:28] for the other partition, repeat the process. use the remaining space, type: primary, location beginning, use as: nothing; mount point: / [00:29] filesystem, ext4 [00:29] Yes, FAT32 is Windows, right? [00:29] j4f-shredder: again, at this point, i don't know why you didn't just take the default partitioning? I think it would be about the same [00:29] gsilva: yeah, old windows :) [00:29] nacc, he might be afraid of deleting everything. I too feel the same way when formatting computers :3 [00:29] cause I wanted to wipe out everything [00:29] Thanks for pointing that out [00:29] I want to delete everything [00:29] gsilva: they are intentionally wiping everything [00:29] I will go back [00:29] and pick that option if its the same [00:30] Didn't it have an option to delete everything in that partition? [00:30] WAIt [00:30] right, i thought it did as well, gsilva [00:30] something like 'delete all partitions and take the default' or so [00:30] whats the difference of picking ext3 ext4 ext2 btrfs and so on [00:30] j4f-shredder, it might delete your partition with movies and stuff [00:30] Besides, you're already halfway through so just might as well finish it [00:30] * nacc was under the impression that j4f-shredder already did that by formatting that disk [00:30] j4f-shredder: they are different filesystems [00:31] the movies and stuff are on another hdd disk [00:31] the 1 tb one [00:31] this is the ssd [00:31] nacc, no, he has two disks: One for media, one for OSs. He wants to delete everything from the OS disk and install Ubuntu and leave the other one has it is [00:31] yes [00:31] j4f-shredder: didn't you say something about not seeing any partitions under the other disk? [00:31] j4f-shredder: in this case, sda, that is [00:31] yes [00:31] sda has nothing listed under [00:31] gsilva: --^ [00:31] gsilva: that's what i was referring to... [00:32] j4f-shredder, not sure if this is the best tutorial or not but it might help pointing out what filesystems are: https://www.pctechguide.com/hard-disks/file-systems-fat-fat8-fat16-fat32-and-ntfs-explained [00:32] I just want to solve this, if I pick the default configuration [00:32] j4f-shredder: i would suggest one thing at a time, then -- that is, first reinstall, then see if you still have your other data [00:32] will it wipe out both disks? [00:32] j4f-shredder: only if you tell it to [00:33] nacc, I usually do this manually to make sure I don't delete stuff I don't want to delete. So I am not entirely sure what that option will do [00:33] So take it from here, please :) [00:34] j4f-shredder: at this point, what you have done manually with gsilva's help is fine. I was just asking why you didn't use the defaults (and even there, i thought you got the choice of which disks to use) [00:34] It shows a message [00:34] I did [00:34] I used silvas counsil [00:34] but now its showing a message FOrce UEFI installation? [00:35] nacc: i did the huge command for hwe stack upgrade and i got some errors towards the end of the apt-get command. here is the tail end of that log with the error messages: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24050002/ [00:35] this machine firmware has started the installer in uefi mode but it looks like there may be existing operating systems already installed using bios compatibility mode [00:35] I dont want windows no more [00:35] azizLIGHT: i believe virtualbox may not be compatible with the hwe stack [00:35] azizLIGHT: someone else was complaining about that eariler [00:35] oh, but ill boot ok right [00:35] azizLIGHT: i think it just means you can't use vbox in the hwe kernel [00:36] on the bios I used to see like 3 or 4 different entries for windows and ubuntu [00:36] on the priority list [00:36] I want to get rid of that [00:36] anything i should do before i shutdown and restart [00:36] is this refering to that? [00:36] in case i dont get to boot [00:36] besides backup [00:37] azizLIGHT: nothing off the top of my head [00:37] i read the log files, yup its just some virtualbox stuff [00:37] they cant make the kernel module i guess [00:37] azizLIGHT: i am guessing there is already a bug for it, but i'd search for that [00:38] please, I need some assistance here [00:38] azizLIGHT: yeah, it's presumably a mismatch between the vbox kernel module and the hwe kernel sources [00:38] oh well [00:38] j4f-shredder: you can force uefi if you are just using ubuntu [00:38] wish me luck imma reboot [00:38] azizLIGHT: gl! [00:38] but I want to get rid of all those entries on the bios [00:38] I have 2 ubuntu entries [00:38] i don't know what you mean by 'bios' [00:38] and 2 windows entries [00:38] the bios doesn't have entries [00:38] do you mean grub? [00:38] j4f-shredder, that's no the bios, that's grub [00:38] I would like to get rid of that [00:38] j4f-shredder: if you mean grub, then the reinstall will fix it [00:38] nono [00:39] its the bios [00:39] Once you delete everything, that will disappear [00:39] nono [00:39] it's not grub [00:39] its the bios on priority preferences [00:39] once I installed windows on uefi mode [00:39] and suddenly I had like 6 entries [00:39] there [00:39] Do you have more than 1 media device plugged in? [00:39] instead of a disk [00:39] I have a list like [00:39] AH, that happened to me before [00:39] the hard drive [00:40] and 4 more entries, two for windows and two for ubuntu [00:40] Right. It lets you choose all entries [00:40] and only one of those 4 works [00:40] I just want to start fresh [00:40] and get rid of all of that [00:40] how do I do? [00:40] start your media device [00:40] change the priority back to your media device [00:40] what? [00:40] USB, DVD, whatever [00:41] I don't know what you did there but you now really need to format that disk and a make a fresh installation [00:41] Im on the usb [00:41] the first [00:41] option [00:41] Ok, you can now choose try, install and so on, right? [00:42] then I have . Windows Boot manager(P1 kingston) . Ubuntu (P1 kingston) Ubuntu (P1 kingston) UEFI .(KingstonDT 101 usb) P1: Kingston [00:42] all those options [00:42] You're in the BIOS? [00:42] I had it set on the usb when that message came up [00:42] yes [00:42] Gigabyte bios [00:43] Can you change the boot order to your USB that has the media installation? [00:43] yes [00:44] but if I do that then I get that force uefi installation message [00:44] I would need to wipe out the uefi mode [00:44] and use the legacy mode [00:44] ok, try that [00:44] once I did a pretty messed up installation in order to be able to install windows [00:44] I had to partition a pendrive in uefi mode [00:44] don't wipe nothing, just change the boot mode to legacy [00:46] I just see legacy usb support [00:46] Im using gygabyte H81M-H [00:47] If you change to that, does it stop displaying all those disks? [00:48] nacc: 4.4 hangs on boot for me unfortunately [00:49] how do i find the logs for the failed boots [00:49] gsilva I just found it [00:49] Failed to load com32 file menu.c32 says now [00:49] azizLIGHT: where did it hang? logs should bein /var/log [00:49] oh jesus xD [00:50] What did you find then? [00:50] What is the easiest way of creating a bootable usb in Ubuntu? I have trued unetbootin and it doesn't work [00:51] astro: ubuntu has got the usb creator. but you can use "dd" on terminal for ubuntu isos, too [00:51] astro, use usb creator, standard app. [00:51] dd && sync [00:51] I just selected the usb with the legacy mode activated [00:51] astro, in ubuntu: https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu [00:51] in Windows https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows [00:52] These are pretty straightforward guides and I always managed to do it [00:52] I'm not sure what is going on there, j4f-shredder because it seems your media device is broken? [00:52] nacc: it hung here http://i.imgur.com/OfKK09J.jpg [00:53] nacc: keyboard was unresponsive on this kernel at that point [00:53] had to press down power button [00:53] azizLIGHT: did you enter your passphrase? are you sure it's unresponsive and not just waiting for you to enter the passphrase? [00:54] azizLIGHT: did you try sysrq? [00:54] oh good action with encrypted disk .. [00:54] nacc: i entered the passphrase, i saw no characters typed. i rebooted and entered passphrase properly and hit enter and waited and it was nonresponsive [00:54] all my other kernels never had a problem? [00:55] with encrtyped disk [00:55] what's the name of the app managing the login screen that's in the latest LTS? [00:55] azizLIGHT: http://askubuntu.com/questions/786267/wont-boot-drop-to-busybox-after-kernel-upgrade-with-encrypted-disks maybe? [00:55] azizLIGHT: i feel like it's possibly a misconfig somewhere, but i hav eno idea where [00:57] tangled_z: lightdm [00:57] k1l_ thanks :) [00:59] i'd like to send an on screen display notification in the center of the screen, is there a way to do this with the current notify-send system? [01:00] mynyml seems not possible with this tweak tool too .. http://www.webupd8.org/2016/05/customize-notifyosd-notification.html [01:02] OerHeks, i feel like there must be a basic 3rd party library that does that somewhere [01:08] how do I remove the efi [01:09] how do I remove the efi mode from a usb [01:09] ?? [01:09] the problem is the pendrive cause the hard disk is wiped [01:09] and the ubuntu installation is saying me I started it in uefi mode [01:12] what are the files used to boot the system? and how do they differ between kernels? maybe i can compare those files between my nonbooting 4.4 and my booting 3.13 and see what the issue is [01:16] hi all I have a fujitsu laptp running ubuntu and it seems the backlight keys do not work, is there a package etc to make it work? [01:21] hello hello. can anyone tell me how to set the umask for apache on Ubuntu? should it go in /etc/apache2/envvars ? [01:22] @jaith umask [01:22] jaith I know you can set the user in the envvars file [01:22] there's no setting for umask currently in that file. just add one? [01:23] yaboo: is there some way to check apache's umask setting now? [01:23] jaith as far as I know, never needed too 755 was ok for me [01:24] yaboo, i need newly created files to be 664 instead of 644 -- situation involves a shared file system and apache on a guest vm [01:25] I'm having issues with audio devices being detected -- pactl is only showing one sink available, but there should be 3 [01:25] I have no idea where to even start debugging this :/ [01:26] hey all, I have a weird bug with 16.04.2 LTS on my HP EliteBook 2730p, when I come out of sleep mode I lose my ability to login on lightdm... or rather, my session never comes back up, There's no mention of any issues related to my GPU in dmesg, I'm kinda at a loss as to how to continue [01:28] I know that my VTs work, even ones left logged in aren't affected [01:30] hmm, my lightdm is not displaying any choice of window manager [01:30] even though ive added one to /usr/share/xsessions/ [01:30] jaith: altering the default read/write perms of files is dangerous, not only from a security standpoint, but also stability, I'd recommend a cron job to alter the directories you need every n minutes [01:31] (and it gives me "Failed to load session" when i try to login) [01:31] hi all I have a fujitsu laptp running ubuntu and it seems the backlight keys do not work, is there a package etc to make it work? [01:31] gartral: thank you for the warning. i like to think of myself as very security-minded. This is an unusual circumstance, and only required on my workstation where I am running a virtual machine with VirtualBox [01:32] gartral: It's a tiny change of umask default 022 to 002 [01:33] gartral: the issue is that apache runs on a VirtualBox vm and needs write access to a shared folder from the host machine (which is my workstation). apache on the guest/vm can write these files just fine initially, but due to the way the shared folder is mounted, files need to be group-writable to be written after they have initially been created by apache [01:34] Hi guys! I need help getting wireless working with my Macbook Pro in Ubuntu Server 16.04 (Broadcom BCM4360) [01:34] gartral: long story LOL.

[01:36] SamIam: well... um... what does ifconfig say? [01:37] @gartral: shows only loopback - no wireless [01:37] gartral: although a question does occur to me. Would you ever recommend adding a umask to tighten permissions? E.g., 077? [01:38] jaith: certainly, but not often [01:42] hey all, I have a weird bug with 16.04.2 LTS on my HP EliteBook 2730p, when I come out of sleep mode I lose my ability to login on lightdm... or rather, my session never comes back up, There's no mention of any issues related to my GPU in dmesg, I'm kinda at a loss as to how to continue. I know my VTs work fine [01:52] hi i need some help [01:52] is anyone here [01:53] guess not [01:53] what is up?

[02:10] I'd like to pretend I am using ubuntu to websites, you see [02:13] medfly: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:51.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/51.0 [02:13] thanks! === zorro is now known as Guest69578 === dunmerfro is now known as foodfro [02:14] medfly: make your life easy and install ubuntu :p [02:20] I am using 16.10 with Unity. When I double-tap the touchpad with 3 fingers, Ubuntu switches apps (as if I had typed Alt+Tab). Is there a way to disable this behavior? I keep accidentally triggering it. [02:21] liche la plotte :) [02:22] jacius: sometimes that happens to be, but didn't know how to trigger it... It seems to be a know bug, did you check on Launchpad? [02:22] (the alt switch apps popup I assume) [02:28] Hi, i am trying to get sound to work via hdmi on my rasberri pi. I am running ubuntu mate. can anyone help? [02:30] hi, I have a quick question. I might be an idiot but I always thought writing a new partition table was a stubstitute for writing all sectors to 0 via dd etc. Is that not the case? [02:30] There seems to be an existing issue related to the app switching: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1264795 [02:30] Launchpad bug 1264795 in unity (Ubuntu) "Alt+Tab Switcher randomly activates itself" [Medium,Triaged] [02:31] But I think the app-switching behavior itself is probably an intentional feature, not a bug. [02:31] KC1AFM: are you using https://ubuntu-mate.org/raspberry-pi/ ? [02:32] yes [02:33] teddy_berror: not the same thing at all. [02:33] writing 0's to the whole disk will take quite a long time, depending on the size of the drive [02:34] Hi. [02:34] I get this error: [02:34] wedgie: Sure, I didn't think so. I just meant that it would, in practical use, appear to be a fresh disk [02:34] E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) [02:34] E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? [02:35] Does anybody have a way to resolve it. It's quite frustrating. [02:35] KC1AFM: What have you tried? > lspci | grep Audio [02:35] Wadjenes, you need to be root/sudo [02:35] doc|work_ doesn't work when I'm root as well. [02:35] I tried sudo -s [02:35] teddy_berror: from that perspective, yes. Just keep in mind that all the old data is still physically on the drive, if someone was motivated enough to recover it [02:35] Wadjenes, then something else is accessing the repo. Do you have synaptic or any other package manager open? [02:35] wedgie: phew. okay. that was my main concern ty [02:36] Ok I completely removed windows and installed ubuntu, now when I try to access my other HDD drive with files and movies it says I dont have permissions to watch it [02:36] No. [02:36] I've got HexChat and firefox open. [02:36] I created a sub user [02:36] with root privileges [02:36] Wadjenes, check updates, maybe there is a row waiting [02:39] OerHeks: In progress [02:40] OerHeks: I tried doing sudo apt-get update; it was working and then returned said error. [02:40] OerHeks: Is there a place where I SHOULD be looking at the updates? [02:40] j4f-shredder: what is the other hard drive partition type. Fat32 ? [02:40] OerHeks: I'm fairly new to ubuntu; I've got the latest version however. [02:40] type binary [02:41] size unknown [02:41] Wadjenes, there's one that runs by default, to do auto updates and the like [02:41] j4f-shredder: where are you reading that from? [02:41] nautilus [02:41] is there a command [02:42] j4f-shredder: i can't think of one easy/good way except gparted. Can you open that and find your hard drive from the list? Then you should be able to see what it was formatted as on Windows [02:43] ntfs [02:44] mount point is media/root/HDD [02:44] hi there - simple question. i have a network printer, laser - Fuji Xerox Docucentre C2275 [02:44] how should I best add this to my ubuntu setup? [02:44] I tried using "Generic PCL Laser Printer" and it does print, but it's in black and white and has low DPI resolution [02:45] so i figure there's probably a better option to use? [02:45] j4f-shredder: okay, good, thanks. One sec. [02:45] hi in apache2 I am looking for the module that gives support for User and Group settings in apache2.conf anyone know what the module is called in Alpine-Linux its called mod_unixd.so [02:45] in flags section I can see boot [02:46] doc|work_ OerHeks: Issue resolved.

[02:50] I was using 16.04 for so long, finally switched to 16.10 and I noticed a drastic difference. 16.10 is A LOT smoother. [02:51] Wadjenes: there is no 17.01 [02:51] xangua: there will be. [02:51] There will not ;-) [02:51] !17.04 [02:51] Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus) will be the 26th release of Ubuntu. It is due to be released in April 2017.

[03:11] lotuspsychje: the issue is that it does not show up as a sink or output device [03:11] the only sink detected is the hdmi adapter, and it's suspended -- nothing is showing up for the speakers or headphone jack [03:13] does anyone have any ideas about the printer issue? [03:13] ubuntquestion: perhaps fuji drivers on their website? [03:14] jon-mac: what ubuntu version? recent hardware plugin? [03:14] i looked, they dont have linux [03:14] lotuspsychje: 16.04, what do you mean recent hardware plugin? [03:15] they do have Mac, which apparently has a ppd file in the dmg file - but i wasnt able to figure out how to extract it from the dmg file [03:15] (if anyone here knows how that would be a great help too) === NemosCene21_ is now known as NemosCene [03:15] lotuspsychje: this is a new machine, just got it with 14.04 from dell, and updated it to 16.04 if that's what you're getting at [03:15] jon-mac: updated to latest 16.04.2?

[03:22] unfortunately I didn't check if the audio worked :/ [03:22] I figured that would be the least of my problems [03:23] but dell supports it on 14.04 so the hardware should be capable [03:23] jon-mac: should be yes, but perhaps somethig going wrong with driver [03:24] what package provides mod_unixd.so in the latest ubuntu dpkg -S mod_unixd.so shows nothing [03:25] lotuspsychje: yeah theres clearly something below pulse that's borked -- I messed with alsa for a while but am not sure if that's the right level to mess with [03:27] transhuman: I may be mistaken, but : http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=mod_unixd.so&mode=filename&suite=xenial-updates&arch=any .

[05:03] which is the best? [05:04] j4f-shredder: ' sudo lshw -C display ' in the configuration line is a driver shown ? [05:08] nores: If it really is 12.04 it has no support any more. Could that be the reason for python not installing? [05:08] nores: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [05:08] nores: What is the output apt-get gives you? [05:09] Bashing-om: Im just installing gnome as suggested [05:09] elias_a, yes it is. but i though there could be an unofficial python3 repository, ppa or something..

How can I make sure the permissions are 777 [05:19] do you know how to correct the gnome [05:19] its freezes on login screen [05:20] No, I know exactly zilch about GNOME. It's one of my subjects of least knowledge in Linux. I abandoned GNOME about when GNOME 3 came out and never came back.

If you will not follow my thought process I can not help . [05:27] the only thing I can do is go to grub->advanced options->recovery mode->root shell prompt [05:27] and then throw your command [05:27] package gdm is not installed an no information available [05:27] thats what it says [05:28] use lightdm [05:28] instead gdm [05:28] j4f-shredder: You say you can get to the login screen .

Third-party PPA's also stopped doing it and places that are making it available ignore security updates. PHP 5.3 has been end of support since august 14, 2014. [12:00] And before that it was already a year or two end of life. [12:01] Upgrade, now. [12:02] FinalX: it's 2 days i'm working on trying to get sugar crm work so i'm not trying to play to have fun.... sugar crm ce works with php 5.2 5.3 [12:02] i have serious problems with php 7....

The software should've been upgraded years ago. [12:04] Support has ended years ago. Security updates will no longer be done. [12:04] Upgrade, now. [12:04] Guest38261, install the ppa [12:05] ikevin xerial not mine 16:10 [12:05] Guest38261, there are packages for xenial, trusty or precise [12:05] https://launchpad.net/~sergey-dryabzhinsky/+archive/ubuntu/php53 [12:05] Seriously, there's not a lot of incompatibilities between 5.3 and 5.6. Class inheritance and register_globals that have been off by default for a decade now. [12:06] I understand you have serious problems with 7, but 5.6 might work just fine. [12:06] And 5.6 on xenial is supported until what, 2021? [12:06] azizLIGHT: hmm i'd abort it looks like it's removing a lot of packages that dont have anything to do with it [12:07] EriC^^: hmm [12:07] oh ehm, I'm sorry, xenial and up all have 7, of course (as they should..) ..

PHP 5.3 is officially EOL. No security patches any more. Not recommended to use. Only if things (code) really bad. All users encouraged to switch to the most recent version! [12:10] Going back to my original point: Upgrade, now. Even that repository is not giving you security fixes anymore. [12:10] Situations like this is what causes so many problems in the world. [12:11] Unmaintained sites, unfixed PHP versions, thousands of sites exploited and DDoS'ing all over. People like me are the ones having to clean it up.

[13:17] hi, my ubuntu can't start anymore and is trying to start lightdm in a loop with failure forever, any idea how I can stop the boot and manually start a X session ? [13:17] sorry... [13:17] no hope? [13:17] You have a ton of interfaces. [13:17] mm I sse [13:17] tcpdump: thanks a lot! [13:18] Some physical, some virtual. [13:18] (by the way, no other tty than F1 are up) [13:18] and it is not necessary right? [13:18] well, it depends... [13:18] mahakal: if you need to paste stuff go to http://paste.ubuntu.com cause the bot would ban you if you do longer lines [13:18] depends about what? [13:18] i saw a tunnel interface, which is typically a vpn client. [13:18] Do you need a VPN client? [13:18] oh ok ..i would take care from now [13:18] nope [13:18] so...ca I swich it off? [13:18] there's one thing I've been meaning to ask. There's a new CVE out there, expoiting DCCP. I'd like to turn it off. Will creating /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-dccp.conf and adding the 4 lines to it do? https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2017/CVE-2017-6074.html [13:18] I mean, only you know if you need all those interfaces. [13:19] yes...I dont need..not really [13:19] mahakal: try dpkg -l | grep grub | nc termbin.com 9999 again to see the output now [13:19] ok [13:19] I think that I put that by accident [13:19] Welastevil: typically you need to uninstall whatever created the interfaces. [13:19] how to erase that? [13:19] Aliekezhi: does the guest account work? [13:19] mmm I ssee [13:19] EriC^: maybe it needs to be done in 2 seperate steps, remove and hten install? http://paste.ubuntu.com/24052978/ [13:20] Can it make some damage or make my pc slow...or intenet cnnections slow or doesnt really metter? [13:20] azizLIGHT: yup seems so [13:20] azizLIGHT: i hope it doesn't want to remove a bunch of other stuff though [13:20] Eric^: http://termbin.com/v3fy [13:20] Welastevil: are you asking if there's any risk in removing interfaces arbitrarily? The answer is, of course. [13:20] azizLIGHT: try with -s first [13:21] mahakal: it looks good, run "sudo update-grub" for good measure [13:21] nope [13:21] Eric^:OK [13:21] Im asking if its f let it be what ever it may be inactive... [13:22] just leting it there....nao worries about this long output? === EriC^ is now known as EriC^^ [13:22] EriC^: when i try to remove only: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24052991/ [13:22] but there are proprietary software to recover data from live dvd..is there really no tool to do it on ubuntu? [13:23] azizLIGHT: try sudo apt-get -f install; sudo dpkg --configure -a [13:23] EriC^^: not much going on there: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24052995/ [13:24] tarball: live dvd or live usb? === lethu_ is now known as lethu [13:24] tarball: you mean you have a live usb that has persistence and you want to recover the data from there? [13:24] EriC^: i have done that url is http://paste.ubuntu.com/24052996/ [13:25] EriC^: i have done that url is paste.ubuntu.com/24052996/ [13:25] one of the things I enjoy with Microsoft RDC is the fact that the remote desktop "syncs" with the local device: same resolution, sound etc. is there any VNC app that can do this for Ubuntu/Lubuntu? [13:26] EriC^^, I don't have access to my login session [13:27] Razva, have you seen x2go? [13:28] alkisg: I'm on a Mac, I can see that x2g has a Mac client [13:28] EriC^^, I only see the ubuntu logo and can see the message of lightdm trying to start forever while pressing F1 [13:28] Aliekezhi: oh ok [13:28] so the login screen never appears [13:28] ccc [13:28] EriC^^, I would like to interrupt this and be able to have a terminal access [13:28] Eric^^ I wish it were that :) no, it is a live dvd [13:29] Aliekezhi: try ctrl+alt+f1 [13:29] EriC^^, I'm already there [13:29] tarball: aha, that's pretty interesting [13:29] EriC^^, but no login is asked, I see for ever the message [FAILED] failed to start lightdm === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo [13:30] Eric^^ do you think it's worth a try with testdisk? [13:30] tarball: not sure what to suggest for it except maybe try photorec or testdisk, there are a lot of tools for data recovery in ubuntu [13:31] if not...its ok... i dont think it an mean any harm... [13:31] Eric^^ I never had experience with these on a dvd, I hope one of them works [13:31] tarball: try to join ##linux and ask there as well, they might know about it [13:31] EriC^^: what else should i try [13:32] mahakal: aha, something is a little weird about the efi there [13:33] can I emulate middle button on a laptop? [13:33] I'd like to alt-resize my windows like I used with an actual 3-buttons mouse [13:33] tarball: you ran a live dvd and created a document or something, and you saved it to ram, and now you want to find it again after reboot??? [13:33] or, rebind the resize action to alt-right click maybe [13:34] mahakal: can you type (ls /sys/firmware/efi; sudo parted -l; cat /etc/fstab) |& nc termbin.com 9999 ? [13:34] ok [13:34] thanks [13:34] EriC^^, well actually I used the recovery mode, that's the only way I found to have an access [13:34] hello guys === erwin is now known as easyOnMe [13:35] Ok done that [13:35] http://termbin.com/szpc [13:35] Aliekezhi: aha, the logs for lightdm might show some info about the problem, they're in /var/log/lightdm also try using an older kernel if it happened after a restart [13:36] hi everyone [13:36] mahakal: aha, you need to install grub-efi cause you're using uefi [13:36] I know this is a no no but just now [13:36] I just shutdown my linux because my browser hang up and the whole laptop hang up too [13:36] EriC^^, I'm really astonished that a simple error with session/DM blocks everything like this...Usually it's possible (on other distributions :p) to change tty and startx manually etc [13:36] While that happened I was installing netbeans [13:37] EriC^^, ty for the log path [13:37] mahakal: type sudo apt-get purge grub-pc grub-pc-bin; sudo apt-get install grub-efi-amd64-signed [13:37] alkisg, I saved it on 'Documents' folder of the live ubuntu dvd- [13:37] so I do not know how to continue the installation from where it left off [13:37] any command I can use to continue the unfinished installation [13:37] tarball: this is in RAM, not in a hard disk. RAM by definition gets erased when the power is lost (reboots etc) [13:38] EriC^^: is it even safe for me to reboot at this point [13:38] tarball: the live DVD uses the DVD and the computer RAM to "emulate" a writeable system, so anything that you save on desktop etc in the live session, end up in RAM, and are completely lost on reboots [13:39] alkisg, there is no such thing as RAM data recovery? [13:40] tarball: after reboot, no, not really [13:40] alkisg..oh [13:40] azizLIGHT: maybe if you remove them one by one it won't much of a problem? hold on [13:40] Eric^: done [13:41] mahakal: ok, try "sudo grub-install; sudo update-grub" [13:41] There's a new CVE out there, expoiting DCCP. I'd like to turn it off. Will creating /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-dccp.conf and adding the 4 lines to it do? https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2017/CVE-2017-6074.html [13:42] in short, how do I disable DCCP? [13:42] easyOnMe: usually "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" are enough, and if it needs something more like dpkg --configure -a, it will prompt you to run it [13:42] Eric when grub-pc is not removd,it said "if you remove grub-pc the system will not reboot next time until you have new config file" [13:42] so choose no to remove it [13:42] azizLIGHT: save this file http://termbin.com/71rt [13:42] did i do wrong.. [13:43] azizLIGHT: then try for i in $(cat filehere); do sudo apt-get purge "$i"; done see what happens [13:44] alkisg: you mean it will continue the unfinished netbeans installation I happened to disrupt when I shutdown my laptop with a long press [13:44] easyOnMe: yes [13:44] mahakal: hmm, did the last command work correctly? [13:45] sudo grub-install; sudo update-grub ? [13:45] alkisg: I see ok let me do that then and I will update you after [13:45] thanks [13:46] alkisg: no it did not work [13:46] EriC^^: how do i save a log of that, output is too long for scrollback [13:46] netbeans installation never continued [13:46] easyOnMe: "did not work" is too generic, what was the output? [13:46] Eric^^;connection is slow.i dont think i will be able to do the update dist now [13:46] azizLIGHT: it should be in /var/log/apt/term.log [13:47] mahakal: that only updates grub [13:47] so update-dist can be avoided [13:47] mahakal: yeah, just sudo grub-install; sudo update-grub [13:48] it's important for booting [13:48] EriC^^: should i go Y on all the questions? http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053089/ [13:48] easyOnMe: what's the output of dpkg -l netbeans? do you see that it's installed? did you try to install it with apt-get install netbeans, or by some other way? [13:49] alkisg: I installed it by downloading the file from netbeans [13:49] EriC^^: i think ffmpeg is from ppa, kodi is from ppa and dont mind removing it, nuvlaplayer same, dont mind removing, vlc shouldnt be from ppa, but easily reinstallable, [13:49] easyOnMe: that's not a proper method; run sudo apt-get install netbeans instead [13:50] alkisg: I followed this: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/10/netbeans-8-2-released-how-to-install-it-in-ubuntu-16-04/ [13:50] azizLIGHT: it wants to remove other stuff, i guess we could play along then reinstall the stuff it wants to remove, i can't think of a way otherwise [13:51] EriC^^: its gonna be a big list im guessing [13:51] azizLIGHT: yeah [13:51] alkisg: dpkg -l netbeans [13:51] this is the debug log of rhythmbox while pluggin the ipod in, I'm not sure what's happening with udev https://gist.github.com/anddam/4f1cfe94adf702487ff6caa20f674c7b [13:51] http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053096/ [13:51] any hint appreciated [13:51] easyOnMe: we don't support custom installers here, use the version that is shipped by ubuntu [13:51] easyOnMe: sudo apt-get install netbeans [13:51] EriC^ : that command work cleanly "No error reported" [13:52] azizLIGHT: maybe the stuff is a little redundant and after a few packages it stops wanting to remove so many (hopefully) [13:52] I see [13:52] mahakal: great, type "dpkg -l | grep grub | nc termbin.com 9999" lastly === expert is now known as Guest89871 [13:53] EriC^^: im seeing a change in tone here. its wanting to install stuff now: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053107/ [13:53] http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053109/ [13:54] azizLIGHT: i'd abort it's getting pretty huge [13:54] it wants to remove libreoffice and other stuff! [13:54] okay, and those things are lts-utopic [13:54] EriC : http://termbin.com/vwpn [13:54] is there any command option on apt-get install, on which enable to download dependencies on itself? automatically? instead of giving stderr to the user and let the user do it manually? [13:54] azizLIGHT: maybe by using some other means we can force it to just remove the xorg stuff we want without removing the others? [13:55] azizLIGHT: like using dpkg or some apt option? [13:55] i was trying install vlc and some dependencies are missing [13:55] im not sure [13:55] yes [13:55] craptalk: it does that by default usually [13:55] anyway, i install it in .deb form, not apt-get install [13:55] i download that myself [13:56] alkisg: there is this message that says [13:56] The installer lock file exisist at /home/jboy/.nbi/.nbilock [13:56] mahakal: ok, type sudo apt-get purge grub-pc-bin [13:56] but everytime i tried it in form of .deb, and do dpkg -i, it would leave the error of dpendencies [13:56] I believe that this is the one that has not finished or completed the netbeans installation [13:56] what shall I do now [13:56] craptalk: yeah dpkg doesn't satisfy dependencies i think [13:57] easyOnMe: for custom installers, you would need to ask in the respective software support channel; e.g. #netbeans [13:57] EriC^^: what is the main problem here, so that i may describe it later to others? [13:57] ok thanks [13:57] craptalk: i think sudo apt /path/to/deb can install .deb files and it might satisfy dependencies too, not sure [13:57] kinda boring to do it manually, moreover, it would be more than one required dpndencies [13:57] really? i can use apt into downloaded .deb file? [13:58] EriC^^: my understanding is that some of my packages are being gotten from a ppa and we are trying to restore them to ubuntu repo versions, but without success and dependency problems [13:59] EriC^^ : done URl is : http://termbin.com/cilx [13:59] azizLIGHT: yes, the xorg packages are the xorg-edgers version, and the ppa has been removed but we need to downgrade the packages as well [13:59] craptalk, yes [14:00] ikevin: i just knew it. altho dpkg is technically apt also [14:00] gotta try it out [14:00] azizLIGHT: mainly we need to see a way to downgrade the packages without using remove then install so it doesn't start wants to remove other stuff in the process [14:00] but could you explain the basic difference of these commands two? [14:01] maybe how they behave while we installing the pkg or something? [14:01] EriC^^, azizLIGHT, to install a specific version, use apt install package=version [14:01] anyone here knows how to unlock a file [14:01] easyOnMe: how do you mean? [14:01] alkisg: this will work on downgradeS? [14:02] azizLIGHT: yes [14:02] EriC^^ : what to do now [14:02] azizLIGHT: apt policy package => see the available versions, apt install package=version => downgrade [14:02] so EriC^^ i just have to look at the xorg-edgers packages and see the ubuntu repo version tag and use apt install of the ubuntu-repo-version [14:02] azizLIGHT: try alkisg 's suggestion [14:02] of that package [14:03] azizLIGHT: yeah the list is here http://termbin.com/71rt [14:03] There is this message: The installer lock file exisist at /home/jboy/.nbi/.nbilock [14:03] I am trying to install netbeans [14:03] azizLIGHT: try apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-nouveau [14:03] because I force shutdown my laptop earlier because it hang up [14:03] is it still installed and is it still the xorg-edgers version? [14:03] so the netbeans installation that was in progress never completed the installation at all [14:04] EriC^^: Installed: 1:1.0.11+git20141030.3fb97d78-0ubuntu0sarvatt~trusty2 [14:04] mahakal: it looks good, you can try rebooting if you want [14:04] easyOnMe: maybe there was some currently running process [14:04] EriC^^: this is the ubuntu repo version: 1:1.0.10-1ubuntu2 0 [14:04] craptalk: yes at that time when I shutdown [14:04] so now I am trying to install again netbeans [14:04] but the wizard gave me that message [14:04] that I just pasted [14:04] azizLIGHT: aha, try sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau=1:1.0.10-1ubuntu2 [14:04] and that process still there, or at least became zombie [14:05] is it apt-get or apt [14:05] EriC^^: alkisg said apt [14:05] craptalk: so what can I do [14:05] azizLIGHT: apt in newer ubuntu versions, apt-get in all versions [14:06] sweet: The following packages will be DOWNGRADED: [14:06] EriC^^ : ok its going to be really serious..but one last question ..Typing "grub" in terminal says "grub :command not found " [14:06] delete that file what was locked [14:06] Installed: 1:1.0.10-1ubuntu2 [14:07] neat!!! [14:07] mahakal: yes, that's normal [14:07] thats one down, many to go [14:07] azizLIGHT: nice! [14:07] ok..and how to contact you if something goes bad [14:07] !cookie | alkisg [14:07] alkisg: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [14:07] Haha, thanks EriC^^ I was hungry :D [14:08] can I install server from Desktop image? [14:08] !cookie | alkisg [14:08] lol i cant give cookies [14:08] mahakal: use your phone or a live usb to get back here from http://webchat.freenode.net [14:08] alkisg: :D [14:08] azizLIGHT: Maybe the bot doesn't want to make me toooo fat... :D [14:09] hi [14:09] heh [14:10] EriC^^ : after removing grub-bin ..you did not ask me to do "grub install ; update grub"etc [14:10] how do i run through this list and find apt-cache policy ubnutu repo versions, and then run apt-get install *package*=*ubuntu_version* [14:10] i can do it one by one but id rather not [14:11] mahakal: yes it's not required, that just removes the packages from the system but grub is already installed in the efi partition and everywhere else from earlier [14:12] anddam, dont think ive seen that option [14:12] ok ..going to do bootinh [14:12] mahakal: if you want you can run sudo apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64-signed grub-efi-amd64 grub-efi-amd64-bin [14:12] how will I know whether my ubuntu os got corrupted due to forced shutdown via long ppress of the power button [14:12] it won't harm at all [14:12] I mean will I be creating severe damage with what I did [14:12] EriC : whats your final advice [14:12] easyOnMe, yes you can [14:13] mahakal: run the command above, then try rebooting [14:13] Hi there [14:13] I have problems getting a uefi system to boot [14:13] can someone here help? [14:13] ok [14:14] installing was no problem but I can't get the grub menu [14:14] murks_: what's happening? [14:14] does anyone here use geary [14:14] ? [14:14] murks_: what model pc? [14:14] I'd like to know where the full options for geary are. [14:14] I know in the top right corner there are some settings, but it's like 5 or 6 settings. There must be more settings, somewhere, right? [14:15] EriC^^: acer something, here is a bootinfo paste: http://paste2.org/zD5O0HHV [14:15] EriC^^ : should i run "grub install ; update grub" [14:15] now [14:16] azizLIGHT: can you paste a sample of "apt-cache policy xorg-package" ? [14:16] murks_: acer's have a uefi trust option that has to be enabled first [14:16] EriC^^: which one [14:16] EriC^^: meaning? I managed to disable secureboot [14:17] murks_: it comes up after enabling the admin password [14:17] compdoc: downloading the server install image meanwhile [14:17] hello. On 16.04 I created a hotspot wifi connection with a tplink usb nic, using network manager. I can see the connection listed in ifconfig (wlxf4f26d110211 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr f4:f2:6d:11:02:11) but I can't see it in the wifi available networks. What can I do? [14:17] azizLIGHT: any one will do [14:17] EriC^^ : should i run "grub install ; update grub" now [14:17] EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053264/ [14:17] or should go for booting [14:18] i tried to downgrade libgl1-mesa-glx to ubunto repo version but it wont budge? http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053243/ [14:18] mahakal: sure, run "sudo update-grub" [14:18] anyone about the udev question? I'm pretty lost there [14:18] it's ok without grub-install [14:18] ok, found something, will look that up in uefi [14:18] ok [14:19] azizLIGHT: apt-cache policy $(dpkg -l | awk 'NR >= 6 { print $2 }') | awk '/^[^ ]/ { split($1, a, ":"); pkg = a[1] } nextline == 1 { nextline = 0; printf("%-40s %-50s %s\n", pkg, $2, $3) } /\*\*\*/ { nextline = 1 }' | grep status [14:19] azizLIGHT: this is a list of packages that don't come from your sources.list [14:19] azizLIGHT: i.e. the ones that you need to downgrade [14:19] ok [14:20] going for boot.Good luck [14:20] alkisg: he wants to downgrade the xorg-edgers one right now [14:20] the boot-repair tool fails http://paste2.org/BUEc1WOz [14:20] alkisg: this is the list he has of the packages that have its stuff http://termbin.com/71rt [14:20] alkisg: EriC^^ this is whats not from sources.list: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053282/ [14:20] EriC^^: I don't know which of his packages come from that ppa, and that command above will tell us... [14:21] and the first legitimate one libgl1-mesa-glx, wont downgrade [14:21] alkisg: we kind of went through it earlier getting the packages [14:22] EriC^^: ok. azizLIGHT, it looks like you haven't ran apt dist-upgrade recently, so that list isn't accurate. [14:22] alkisg: oh ok [14:22] i see what you meant, it gives packages that dont have a source repo [14:22] Yup [14:22] thought you meant it lists all the packages that are from ppa's installed [14:22] i had run dist-upgrade and was on 14.0.4.5 and then i did upgrade to hwe stack using the multiarch command [14:23] azizLIGHT: what's the output of apt policy ppa-purge? Why doesn't it come from stock ubuntu? [14:23] then the kernel didnt work for me (hang on luks passphrase entry), so i wanted to downgrade back to how everything ws, because i noticed that half of my things disappeared and were uninstalled: notepadqq for instance [14:24] alkisg: it looks like when i did hwe stack upgrade, it upgraded everything to xorg-edgers versions along with half of hwe stack or something [14:24] alkisg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053292/ [14:24] EriC^^: boot was successfull [14:24] mahakal: great! [14:25] azizLIGHT: ok, so it would be nice to downgrade that one too, i.e. everything in that list [14:25] but i did not saw the grub2 welcome screen [14:25] mahakal: do you have 2 OS installed? [14:25] no [14:25] alkisg: right, im trying but i cannot downgrade libgl1-mesa-glx. the pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053243/ [14:26] mahakal: it's usually hidden unless you hold shift when the pc starts, or if there's 2 OS [14:26] mahakal: you can make it appear always if you want [14:26] thanks EriC^^ , boots now [14:27] azizLIGHT: some packages have dependencies on the same version of other packages, so it's best to use a big apt install package1=version package2=version for all of them, not run them one by one [14:27] i see [14:28] EriC^^: i think ubuntu uses both grubs..Because before installing grub2 i sometime hold shift during boot and the grub 2 was shown at top..but when checking the version on command line it used to show 0.97 [14:29] mahakal: which version ? [14:29] ubuntu uses grub2 [14:29] EriC^^: how did you make this list. can you do it so it also adds the ubuntu candidate under it [14:29] EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24052790/ [14:30] Now :grub-install (GRUB) 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.12 [14:30] Before : 0.97 [14:30] alkisg: except x2go, which doesn't really works properly on macOS, is there any other option? [14:30] mahakal: before what? [14:31] Razva, I've never used macos so I wouldn't know, try to see if there's a #macos channel in freenode [14:31] Before installing grub-pc [14:31] murks_: great, no problem [14:31] btw, xorg-edgers ppa says "WARNING: Do not use this PPA with enabled HWE stack." [14:33] ppf : the strange thing is that typing grub on terminal now produce the message : the package grub is not installed [14:33] mahakal: ubuntu has both the old grub 0.97 package and the new grub2 package. But noone uses the old grub 0.97 package nowadays [14:33] mahakal: maybe, the old grub package was installed, it had also the config files left [14:33] mahakal: so if you run apt install grub, you get the old one, and if you run apt install grub-pc, you get the new one [14:33] oo [14:33] mahakal: the grub package is the old legacy grub [14:33] but i have both file install ..that is menu.lst is still in right folder..So how to know that which grub version is used by the booting process [14:33] mahakal: do you still have menu.lst ? [14:33] mahakal: dpkg -l '*grub*' | grep ^ii | nc termbin.com 9999 [14:34] yup [14:34] There's a new CVE out there, expoiting DCCP. I'd like to turn it off. Will creating /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-dccp.conf and adding the 4 lines to it do? https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2017/CVE-2017-6074.html HOw do I disable DCCP in Ubuntu 14.04? [14:34] its still there [14:34] mahakal: right now it should be using the grub.cfg one [14:34] menu.lst doesn't get erased when removing the old grub [14:34] alkisg : http://termbin.com/trvy [14:35] mahakal: see, you don't have a packaged called "grub" installed, with version "0.97" [14:35] mahakal: if it says the proper version at the top then you should be good [14:35] Eric^^ : but how to confirm that [14:35] ok [14:35] LuMint: just upgrade your syste [14:35] m [14:36] the CVE has been fixed yesterday [14:36] LuMint: That page suggests that it was fixed already [14:37] EriC^^ : i mean some type of echo statement that i can put in grub.cfg to confirm [14:37] ? [14:37] Pici: i'm running 14.04. And I'm sure I didn't receive the update. [14:37] mahakal: grub 0.97 cannot read grub.cfg, it can only read menu.lst [14:37] LuMint: What kernel version are you on? [14:38] LuMint: fixed kernel packages are available. just upgrade them [14:38] sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [14:38] ohh...alkisg u r right [14:38] LuMint: If you were using one of the hwe stack kernels, make sure that you're using one that hasn't reached its EOL. [14:39] hello [14:40] Pici: 3.13.0-107 [14:41] ppf: according to the 3.13.0-108 changelog it doesn't deal with the CVE. [14:41] ppf: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kernel-package/+changelog [14:41] 3.13.0.110.118 [14:43] EriC^^: what was the command to find pckages which are from xorg edgers again === Guest38261 is now known as rek [14:44] ppf: i have 3.13.0.110 in the list, but I'm not sure if it's 110.118 [14:45] ppf: how can I found it out and also where do i find the changelog for it? [14:46] dpkg -s linux-image-generic [14:48] azizLIGHT: this is the list http://termbin.com/71rt [14:49] ppf: dpkg-query: package 'linux-image-generic' is not installed and no information is available [14:49] weird [14:51] ppf: do you mean I should Install .110 first? === KindTwo is now known as KindOne [14:53] is it normal for laptop running ubuntu-gnome, to last 2-3 hours? [14:53] activites are coding, browsing, streaming [14:53] craptalk_: power saving packages installed? [14:53] LuMint: how to check? [14:54] but, is it normal? [14:54] i check that laptop lasting around 5 hours is normal [14:55] i think ubuntu-gnome has some heavy animations which could effect the power [14:55] craptalk_: apropos power [14:55] craptalk_: apropos energy [14:55] craptalk_: apropos saving [14:55] LuMint: no... just [14:56] run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [14:56] ppf: will that upgrade me to Ubuntu 16? [14:56] ppf: what essential explanatin would that be? [14:56] LuMint: no [14:56] it will upgrade your kernel [14:57] craptalk_: ECONTEXT? [14:59] one of the things I enjoy with Microsoft RDC is the fact that the remote desktop "syncs" with the local device: same resolution, sound etc. is there any VNC app that can do this for Ubuntu/Lubuntu, except x2go? [15:01] EriC^^: i downgraded those in the list to ubuntu repo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24053421/ [15:01] now what shall i do [15:01] i am pretty sure a lot of my packages have gone missing, and some are still on some kind of git [15:06] how do i do apt-cache policy of all packages on system [15:07] azizLIGHT: good job! [15:07] azizLIGHT: dpkg -l | awk '$1 == "ii" { print $2 }' | xargs apt-cache policy | grep -C10 someppa [15:09] EriC^^ : i want to try REMnux disro based on ubuntu .But instead of providing ISO image its downlid file is "virtual appliance file in ova format"..How can i use it on ubuntu 14.04 [15:11] EriC^^: thanks, working through the mess bit by bit :P [15:11] my RAM is 8 gb, but linux says it 7,2. how does it possible? is it being used by other things related to RAM requirement? [15:12] mahakal: download the file then load it in virtualbox [15:12] craptalk: do you have integrated graphics? [15:14] EriC^^ : My laptop is 4gb ram ,pentiium quad core SO which would be good choice virtualBox vs VMware . [15:14] EriC^^: how can i find from this those packages who are not Installed: ubuntu [15:14] mahakal: The one you like more. [15:15] mahakal: i've never tried vmware, i think they should be similar in performance, virtualbox works nicely for me though [15:16] EriC^^ : on web i have learnt that virtualbox put far less burden on cpu than vmware [15:17] mahakal: aha, interesting [15:17] azizLIGHT: you want all packages from any ppa's? [15:18] EriC^^: yes im trying to find all non-ubuntu packages. and see if they need to go back to ubuntu version or not [15:18] so that includes : installed: none [15:18] EriC^^ : but you know thing would have been more nice if i could dual boot REMnux and ubuntu.Because in virtualization RAM is divided..and system get slow === Poster|z is now known as Poster [15:18] and git and xorg edgers and anything else [15:19] mahakal: i think you can [15:21] EriC^^ :Aha what does this mean : https://paste.ubuntu.com/24053542/ [15:21] mahakal: https://remnux.org/docs/distro/get/#install-remnux-on-an-existing-system [15:21] it says it can allow you to install on a physical host [15:22] EriC^^: BINGO we share same material with different mean === Guest10839 is now known as zokko [15:23] EriC^^: installing on a physical host mean i can have option to dual boot selecting from grub menu ?? [15:23] mahakal: i think it means that remnux is like an addition that can be added to any ubuntu system, they usually give the iso that's based on ubuntu + remnux, you can use the install script to add remnux to an already installed ubuntu [15:24] means like any other software like wireshark,nmap,geany ?? [15:24] mahakal: you can install it on top of your current ubuntu, or if you want a separate system you could install another ubuntu (dual boot) and run the install script there and it would make it with remnux [15:25] mahakal: it does some modifications to ubuntu, software, maybe some settings, etc [15:26] Eric^^ : ok.SO can i do this : booting an ubuntu system from usb the runnig that script in this environment? [15:27] yeah you can do that, or make a live usb that has persistence [15:28] this is the script it runs https://remnux.org/get-remnux.sh it looks like it installs lots of software and some settings [15:28] craptalk, 8 GB should show as 7.7 GiB (multiplier is 1024 instead of 1000). [15:28] what process is taking care of updating networks share in "real time" by default on Ubuntu ? Is it avahi ? [15:30] does ubuntu by default delete all old kernels if I execute sudo apt-get autoremove but the 2 newest ones? [15:30] EriC^^: consider the scenario : you boot ubuntu from usb..install wireshark on it..the next time you boot from usb ..Will wireshark be there or not ? [15:30] lerner: No. [15:30] lerner: usually yes [15:30] lerner: You can use "purge-old-kernels" from the biksehd package, to do so. [15:31] bekks, EriC^^ who should I listen to? [15:32] !autoremove [15:32] lerner, look at ls /boot, do the autoremove, look again at /boot it keeps the last two (16.04 === Birosso is now known as Bigotto [15:42] hi [15:42] anybody here?

(gnome) [16:19] hello [16:19] HEXCHAT [16:21] sruli: Close the dconf gui editor (if you have it open) and run in the terminal "dconf reset /foo/bar" [16:21] Hi all, can I get quick feedback on that tiny design issue: https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/1559 [16:22] hi all, I've got a Dell XPS13 with ubuntu installed. The previous owner installed arch alongside ubuntu and used gummiboot to enable multiboot, is it possible to restore the original ubuntu bootloader in any way? [16:22] sruli: Change the /foo/bar part to the path containing the options. It'll clean it up. [16:22] tdannecy: /foo/bar = full path? "/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/custom0/" [16:23] sruli: Yep. That looks right to me [16:25] version of ubunut is 14.04 [16:25] tdannecy: didnt delete, they are still there [16:25] sruli: Try the command with -f [16:26] sruli: So, "dconf reset -f /foo/bar/" [16:26] tdannecy: reading the man page now.. -f is for dirs.. will try [16:26] ThePeach: yes, you just need to install Grub from a live disk. You may even be able to just use bootrepair on a live disk. [16:27] nicomachus: I managed to start ubuntu (luckily it kept the entry in the boot) [16:27] nicomachus: would I go about grub-install grub-mkconfig etc? [16:27] tdannecy: that didnt help. [16:28] sruli, there is also gconf-cleaner, can be installed from the software center [16:30] sruli: Try running the command on a higher up dconf dir? [16:31] tdannecy: where would i specify the entry "custom0"? what would my path/command be? "dconf reset -f org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/ ??" [16:32] paclos, cannot find any gconf / dconf-cleaner in repo [16:32] pavlos: ^ [16:32] sruli: Running that command will/should remove anything in the custom-keybindings dir [16:33] sruli: Well, anything that's not default [16:33] Hi, any woman around here? [16:33] tdannecy: dont want to remove all, but wil have to bite the bullet, just want to make sure it wont delete the actual dir so i will be able to add custom keyboard shortcuts later. [16:34] It won't remove the dir itself, just everything inside it. [16:34] Is there a way to restore the default Lubuntu shortcuts? I changed "./config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml" [16:34] Hi, I know this is the wrong place to ask, but im sure many of you also use windows, and office. Does anyone know of any kind of workaround for activating office 2013 without a bloody microsoft account? [16:35] Ajxa_, yes enter the auth key [16:35] Ajxa_, you maybe have more change to get a reply on #windows [16:35] Ajxa_: seriously. If you know it's the wrong place ... use #windows or #ubuntu-offtopic [16:35] sruli: I mean, you could backup the entire dconf, delete the original, rebuild dconf with default actions, and then manually re-add the settings from the exported file. [16:36] sruli: Or, just re-add the dconf settings in the dir. It's up to you. [16:36] its a general knowledge question to be fair..people know this from experience but okay ill try my luck elsewehere [16:36] Ajxa_: general knowledge is also offtopic for this channel. [16:37] Ajxa_: and has *nothing* to do with Ubuntu, as you readily admitted. [16:38] Ajxa_: http://i.imgur.com/GiYdIzP.jpg [16:39] Im sure imgur is pretty on topic xD its okay i already went to windows :D [16:39] tdannecy: how do i re-add it, when i tried from the command line it did overwrite it but didnt work and didnt show in shortcuts gui.. that how i got into the problem in the first place [16:43] sruli: Run a "sudo dconf-update"? [16:46] I am realizing that I suck at linux administration [16:46] tdannecy: i deleted it by deleting the higher level as you suggested, however i cannot resolve my problem, how can i add a shortcut from a bash script in gnome ? it adds it to dconf but doesnt work [16:49] aux, iops, cores, etc; I have only the faintest idea of what to make of various metrics and close to nil idea on how to produce them [16:49] tdannecy: i see when i add a shortcut in gui it also adds a entry inside media-keys itself in addition to the sub object it adds, when i add from the command line it doesnt do that [16:50] sruli: Can you re-state your original question? I'm confused on what you're trying to do. [16:50] ash_workz: not sure what each of those are myself, but 'cores' to me is not a metric? [16:50] ash_workz: but also, not really a support question [16:51] tdannecy: the original question i posted was how to delete, which i have now achieved.. the original thing i wanted to achieve is to add a keyboard shortcut from a bash script [16:51] nacc: no; I'm kinda just complaining :\ hoping the super nice people in here will be like `@see CoolTutorial` [16:51] sruli: Keyboard shortcut for what? Gnome? Unity? Vim?? [16:53] hi boys, I installed TightVNC and when I connect to the server I'm logged as a root, not as a sudo user I just created. I'm stuck. Would appreciate any help [16:54] davvvid: 'sudo user'? [16:54] tdannecy: in gnome, i want a shortcut to launch a script which opens a web page, using the keyboard shourcut gui its simple enoung, however i want to add that shoutcut from command line / bash script [16:54] davvvid: a regular user with sudo privilege? [16:54] tdannecy: i tried using the instructions and script from http://askubuntu.com/a/597414/483497 but that only works if there are existing shortcuts set, i dont know what i need to edit in the script that it should add without existing shortcuts set [16:54] nacc, yes. regular user with sudo privilege [16:54] davvvid: who is the server running as? [16:54] davvvid: as in, look at `ps aux` on the server system and see [16:55] davvvid: did you start it using sudo? [16:55] ducasse, yes [16:55] davvvid: then it's running as root [16:55] davvvid: you escalated the privilege to run it [16:57] it's not running without sudo [16:57] vncserver: Wrong type or access mode of /home/david/.vnc. [16:57] sruli: The link you provided has instructions to create a new set, in both the Bash and Python examples. [16:57] davvvid: probably you ran it with sudo once, which made that directory owned by root [16:58] davvvid: check the permissions? [16:58] tdannecy: yes, but it checks first for existing ones, as i dont have existing ones if fails [16:58] is it ok to update pip using pip, after installing it from the repos? [16:58] is it ok to update pip using pip, after installing it from the repos? [16:58] The python comment says "make sure the additional keybinding mention is no duplicate" [16:59] (sorry if that send twice, just making sure it got on here) === afru is now known as lunchdatefro [16:59] pvl1: do you have a reason to do so? iirc, by default, pip will put itself in /usr/local and leave the system pip in /usr -- note that modifying /usr outside of the packaging system is not ideal [16:59] pvl1: i would suggest not updating the system pip outside of the packaged version, if you are using the pacakged version [17:00] nacc: thats what i figured... only a matter of time before theres issues [17:01] nacc and ducasse. I love you boys. all is working === Name is now known as nameee [17:02] pvl1: do you have a specific need for a newer pip? [17:02] pvl1: i believe you can install it 'locally' (as in your home directory) for just your user [17:02] davvvid: yw [17:02] tdannecy: i beleive that is to check if the keybind being added is not a duplicate as in that case it also fails, if you look as the while true function, you will see that it specifically checks for existing number, i guess it needs an argument that if there is no number start at 0, never edited python before.. not sure how to do it [17:02] nacc: nope, just pip recommended i update and gave me the command, and i was like, aptitude will not be happy [17:03] Hello. Anyone has expirience installing u. On arm ? [17:03] pvl1: ok -- i'm also not a python expert, but that's just my expectation :) [17:04] nameee, there is an ARM channel too #ubuntu-arm [17:07] Oer heks thank you! [17:07] hi [17:07] Hi - question about ubuntu Core. I have a working machine in KVM, and when I want to ssh into it, it asks key passphrase. When I enter it correctly, it asks users password, which I don't know... any ideas? [17:07] ooo neat [17:07] how do I know the 10 latest things I installed ? [17:07] thanks OerHeks [17:07] https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/pwm-general/BVTWTtMu2kA [17:07] If anyone has any ideas to my issue above [17:07] or say 20 latest packages, yeah they can be as old as hell, but they should be in order, so how do I list them ? [17:08] be greatly apprciated [17:08] would keep it in a PWM channel if one existed :( [17:08] Anyone used dism in Windows [17:08] lol kang0 #Windows-server [17:08] c'mon [17:09] slunatecqo, you need the ssh keys >>>> ssh -i @ >>> http://askubuntu.com/questions/870635/ubuntu-core-ssh-key [17:10] OerHeks: As I said. I have it all set up. I do use the key, and after I succesfully use it (I enter the right passphrase) it asks for USER password (not key passphrase) [17:11] hey guys does anyone know ? [17:11] slunatecqo, with ssh key you don't need passphrase/user, so something is not setup correct? [17:11] OerHeks: that is what I am asking. What is not set up correct? [17:13] slunatecqo, not sure, i have no core running here :-( [17:13] slunatecqo: maybe ask in #snappy (not entirely correct there, but they may know where to ask [17:13] nacc: thanks [17:14] kierqueen, not exactly 10 lines .. grep " install " /var/log/apt/history.log [17:15] slunatecqo: is the sso server different computer than the ubuntu machine? [17:16] akik: i mean the sso server will be ubuntu one or whatever, right? for core, i mean [17:17] nacc: ok yea i don't know about that. just thought whether the keys are in the correct location [17:18] akik: yeah, we're debugging it in #snappy now -- looks like a key mismatch (passphrase, possibly) [17:20] gparted won't let me create a logical partition, but ubuntu installer will. is there some trick to doing it in gparted? [17:22] however ubuntu installer apparently won't let me do anything with the encrypted logical partition i want, except create one single big partition inside it.. i want four partitions (three ext4 and one swap) to live inside the same encrypted container. is that possible? === KindTwo is now known as KindOne [17:23] exit [17:24] Congratulations! [17:24] sarbs_: you can accomplish that with lvm and creating logical volumes inside the volume group [17:25] hoi all [17:25] hi [17:25] does anyone know how to update/upgrade thunderbird on debian jessie please? [17:25] winsen_: probalby ask in a debian channel? [17:25] akik how can i set that up? or are you meaning i'll have to go with the single giant ext4, and then lvm is some layer on top of that? [17:25] sarbs_: lvm is a layer below the fs choice, not above [17:26] nacc: no discriminatiopn please [17:26] winsen: this is the Ubuntu support channel. [17:26] nacc: I know I am also using ubuntu and I have the same probleme [17:26] problem [17:26] sarbs_: you select a partition which you want to use as the lvm physical volume [17:26] winsen: what problem is that? [17:26] there is a chanel on oftc called #debian [17:27] winsen: so far you have only asked how to update thunderbird on debian jessie; which is not a problem. [17:27] sarbs_: but i think the ubuntu installation takes care of this [17:27] also how do I find out how much space sagemath is occupying, including all the files, that is manuals, /usr/ etc [17:28] akik oh, i think i see what you mean - yeah, i can create a logical volume, but then i'd have to create multiple encrypted containers inside *that*, each of which would have one partition inside.. that'd require me to decrypt four different containers (ie enter four passwords) at boot time [17:28] i'm looking for a way to have *one* container, 4 child parts [17:28] did i understand what you're saying correctly? [17:29] sarbs_: sorry i haven't used the enccrypted lvm setup myself. i use luks, but i know that the encrypted lvm exists in ubuntu [17:30] A common mistake is to encrypt the home dir and hen for get to encrypt the swap as well. [17:30] sarbs_: a logical volume would be for example the root partition, the /opt partition of the swap partition inside the lvm volume group [17:31] nacc: so far please no discrimination. updating/upgrading TB would be the same on ubuntu and debian. Now tell us if you know the answer otherwise no comment [17:31] tdannecy: i finally figured out how to add from script, i missed 1 step, it would be great if that python script allowed to add if there are no previous shortcuts set [17:32] sarbs_: you can also set a key file to open the encrypted partition in luks [17:32] winsen, nice attitude, but you get answer in #debian [17:32] winsen no, it's not necessarily the same. ubuntu and debian use different package repositories and have sometimes differing versions of software. if you want answers for debian, ask in debian support channels === debian is now known as Guest58404 [17:34] winsen, to surprise you: we have the latest already \0/ [17:37] OerHeks: "nice attitude"? do I need your permission...? [17:37] winsen, follow the channel rules and you are fine :-) [17:37] I want to create an enviroment varible that has the path of a directory. I am confused if I should create teh variable in .profile or .bashrc [17:37] sarbs_: anyway thanks [17:37] winsen: you haven't said a problem? updating thunderbird is `apt update; apt upgrade thunderbird` [17:38] winsen: if you meant, 'how do I upgrade thunderbird on Ubuntu', which you still, afaict, have not asked, then I would say !details to you -- as you haven't said what you have tried, what version you are on, what version you want, etc. [17:39] nacc: I mean, I don't want to upgrade all my system. that's why. I just need to upgrade only TB. [17:39] winsen: why not? you're intentionally holding back your system? [17:39] whats a good way to learn ubuntu [17:40] any website? [17:40] winsen: I believe if there are updates available, `apt install thunderbird` will just upgrade it [17:41] nacc: the last time I did that, I had problems with my system...and frankly I forgot which software.. [17:41] if system fonts or user fonts are updated / changed qt based irc client konversation crashes always [17:41] on ubuntu 16.04 [17:42] do you keep getting font updates too? [17:42] winsen: it feels rather difficult to help. Regular updates (at least security ones) should be run anyways. If you want the 'latest' version of thunderbird, you won't get that from Ubuntu anyways. [17:42] winsen: and you still haven't responded to my second point -- no details. So i'll let someone else help you [17:42] "Setting up fonts-opensymbol (2:102.7+LibO5.1.6~rc2-0ubuntu1~xenial1) ..." was just a reminder of this [17:43] nacc: anyway thanks all [17:43] ahoj [17:43] je tu aj nejjaky slovak [17:43] !sk [17:43] Žiadame slovenských používateľov aby v kanáli #ubuntu hovorili po anglicky. Slovensky a česky sa dohovoríte v #ubuntu-cz. === Trystam is now known as Tristam [17:44] nacc: I wonder if we really need to upgrade TB every version? [17:45] Zythyr i got dc'ed so didn't see if you got an answer, but: https://serverfault.com/questions/261802/what-are-the-functional-differences-between-profile-bash-profile-and-bashrc [17:46] winsen: i don't know what you mean [17:47] nacc: is it really necessary to upgrade TB? in my case from 45.6.0 to 45.7.1 [17:47] winsen: define 'necessary'? are you willing to review it for if you're affected by bugs, etc.? [17:47] winsen: and I don't know if there are CVEs [17:48] winsen, of course TB really hasnt had that many updates the last couple of years [17:48] winsen: what version of Ubuntu? [17:48] winsen: I don't see any 45.7.1 in Ubuntu [17:48] sarbs_ Thank u :) [17:48] after a software has been made using make, how is it converted to a package ? [17:48] after a software has been made using make, how is it converted to a package ? [17:49] kierqueen: it's not converted to a package, per se, but the package building uses make [17:49] kierqueen http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html [17:49] kierqueen: you want to look at a debian source package -- and may wnat to take this to #ubuntu-devel [17:49] .deb ? how do we get there ?

Now I cannot connect to the server either via putty or VNCViewer [17:50] winsen: --^ 45.7.0 [17:50] nacc: 45.7.1 is the latest version of TB [17:50] !latest | winsen [17:50] winsen: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. [17:50] winsen: and also, if it's a security update, it will come back [17:50] when we download a package we get .tar file [17:50] so ... then what [17:50] what's this .deb ? [17:50] !details | kierqueen [17:50] kierqueen: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. [17:51] kierqueen, how about reading the links your were given above [17:51] kierqueen: please use the other channel I mentioned, and also give more information than that (a specific example) [17:51] yeah, even I am confused so can't elaborate [17:51] nacc which other channel? [17:51] winsen, with normal updates you woud have 45.7 already https://launchpad.net/thunderbird [17:51] Southern_Gentlem: I was givne only one link [17:52] and did you read it ? [17:52] kierqueen: #ubuntu-devel [17:52] OerHeks: what is the normal update? by terminal..? [17:52] kierqueen: this isn't really a support discussion [17:52] winsen, gui app, terminal, your choise. [17:52] Southern_Gentlem: yes [17:53] kierqueen: you must read very fast [17:53] kierqueen, that shows you how to build a package step by step [17:53] I don't use bazaar I use git but would try if it is necessary [17:53] OerHeks: how to you update TB by terminal? [17:53] Southern_Gentlem: ducasse: moved to #ubuntu-devel [17:54] Need help. I am noob to shell commands. I want to list all the files in a directory that match the pattern "layer*block*.svg". How can I list them and sort it in alphabethical order [17:54] nacc, inderstand [17:54] understand [17:54] OerHeks: how to you upgrade TB by terminal? [17:54] Southern_Gentlem: was just an FYI, so I don't need to type twice :) [17:54] winsen: I already told you how to do that. [17:55] I'd like a setup where Xorg isn't started by default, should I install desktop and then disable gdm (and possibly other units) or install server and then Xorg on it? [17:55] winsen, not, update all packages. [17:56] winsen but you are on debian, ask them too? [17:56] nacc: you mean by "apt install thunderbird" [17:57] winsen: if there is an update for it and you ahve the corresponding repository enabled, then yes, that should upgrade just thunderbird (well, and its dependencies if any and if needed) [17:57] hi [17:57] nacc: thank you [17:57] does sb know a live CD distro less than 700MB up-to-date? [17:57] Zythyr: it's just "ls -1 layer*block*.svg" [17:57] might want an -a in there just to be safe ^ [17:58] Zythyr: the -1 makes it output in one column [17:58] cfoch-always, only Lubuntu fits on cd [17:58] "up2date" no [17:58] nacc: It's ok thanks all [17:58] OerHeks: is it live? [17:58] is it.... live? [17:58] cfoch-always, yes, install and live mode [17:59] the one which fits on a CD is live? [17:59] to be more specific ^ [17:59] cfoch-always: any OS booted from a cd/dvd/usb is live... [17:59] live just means it's not installed on the hard disk of the machine that's booting it. [17:59] nicomachus, correct, except * mini and server iso [18:00] akik Thanks. let me try to see if it works [18:02] akik It worked! HOwever, the listing of hte files is not in alphabehtical order. How do I make sure the filenames listed are sorted [18:02] Hello, I simply want to edit the hidden bash_profile file thou i can not find it in home directory i only find bashrc so what can i do ? [18:03] Bash_John: are you using a GUI to look for files? [18:03] I am building a deb package. I need to include a bunch of service files into the package. I dumped all the files in debian directory [18:03] Bash_John: if you want to edit a file that doesn't exist you just go and create it [18:03] no i am using terminal with root [18:03] doin all command [18:03] but it picks only the one which matches the name exactly [18:03] viral_mutant: probalby want to ask in #ubuntu-devel [18:03] Zythyr: you can pipe the ls command output to sort i.e. ls | sort [18:04] Bash_John: the file may not exist for all users (specifically for the root user) [18:04] nacc: ok. I asked on ubuntu-packaging, but I guess there are not enuf ppl [18:04] Bash_John: there is no .bash_profile by default [18:04] viral_mutant: or it might take some time to respond [18:05] non default graphic session anyone? [18:05] damn miss leading thread i read on your site then :/ witch file can i edit to update profile then (need to add bin directory) [18:05] Bash_John: "your site"? [18:06] Bash_John: you can add it there, just create it [18:06] the site that i read that from ? [18:06] Bash_John: you can always *create* a .bashrc as anddam and ducasse said [18:06] Bash_John: we have no idea what you've read or where [18:06] well i find a .bashrc file thou it has data in it [18:06] Bash_John: but also, if you don't know that you can create a .bashrc if it doesn't already exist, I'd be rather hesitant to suggest doing anything as root [18:06] nacc: or why he's doing it as root [18:07] ditto [18:08] well if now i cant do this i anyways will remove ubuntu so theres no point in being carefull [18:08] Bash_John: what? [18:09] "if you don't know that you can create a .bashrc" [18:09] I know how to thou i do not know how to delete xD [18:09] Bash_John: maybe start over. You are root and want to edit a ~/.bashrc file? [18:09] Bash_John: .bashrc should be there [18:09] Bash_John: .bash_profile you can create [18:09] na i am user and i do the su command [18:10] :) [18:10] Bash_John: you understand that su makes you root, right? [18:10] yes [18:10] thou i do not understand how it can be dangouruss :P [18:11] Bash_John: full control and access can't be dangerous? [18:11] you can delete or change permissions on all your files [18:11] Bash_John, using su with root permissions means you have god powers and can totally remove everything on the hd [18:11] i have come to the conclution that everything in my home user folder i am suppose to have controll of and beond that i am not, so if i just follow thous rules when being root it should not mess anything [18:12] Bash_John: if you are exclusively in your home folder, you don't need root at alL! [18:12] Bash_John, examples please [18:12] some useful kernel configs to enable when fuzzing? [18:13] ehm i do not tutch anything for example before the directory home/user [18:13] Bash_John, what exactly is the issue [18:14] the exact issue is that i need to add paths to command line [18:15] akik I did "ls -1 layer*block*.svg [18:15] akik I did "ls -1 layer*block*.svg | sort". The resulting list is not sorted. The * is the ls command is a number [18:16] Bash_John: you're not exaclty listening. It's bad practice to be root when you don't need to be. Also you might be changing the permissions/ownership of your home directory which can break things. Also, if you type the wrong command, as root, you can erase your hard drive. Don't be root unless you need to be. [18:16] so it can find executable files [18:16] Can I upgrade to the latest kernel on my Ubuntu 14.04 LTS release if I have Nvidia drivers installed from http://ppa.launchpad.net/graphics-drivers/ppa/ubuntu [18:16] ok well il just restart the terminal then [18:17] Bash_John: if you just need it at the comamnd line, `export PATH=/path/to/add:$PATH` [18:17] how to launch a not truste launcher? [18:18] i have read that thou i do not exactly understand it what is the add:$PATH ? [18:18] akik Actually I just noticed. Even the default "ls -1" list the file names, but they are not properly sorted. For example "layer_13_block_21.svg" comes before "layer_9_block_33.svg" [18:18] neldogz: do you mean the latest trusty kernel? hwe stack? [18:19] the line i need to add is /home/john/voxforge/bin/htk/bin [18:19] Xundres, can you repfrase that? [18:19] !bash | Bash_John [18:19] Bash_John: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. In Unity or GNOME, search the dash for "terminal" and press ENTER. Other desktops: Applications -> System Tools -> Terminal (MATE), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [18:19] Bash_John: may want to read that to get an intro to the PATH variable [18:20] OerHeks: how to start an untrusted executable file [18:20] PATH=/home/john/voxforge/bin/htk/bin:$PATH or what ? [18:20] ah so path is a command [18:20] ok ok [18:20] Bash_John: no, PATH is a variable. [18:21] i never understand the --help anyways but il check if i understand this one [18:22] "Doc, My brain hurt's" [18:22] Zythyr: change 9 to 09 [18:22] "well we just have to take it out then" [18:22] Xundres, i would not, but this page might be any help https://www.howtogeek.com/285595/how-do-you-safely-run-an-untrusted-executable-file-on-linux/ [18:25] OerHeks: ty [18:25] I seem to just needed to read some few lines, i alreaddy knew pipe interface and shell [18:27] akik brainwash Okay i fixed hte issue. I have to use "ls -v -1". THe -v does natrual sort [18:28] Ok now i know, You have been a great help :D your parrents should be prowd :) [18:29] hey, can someone suggest me some good terminal emulators for ubuntu, just like iTerm for OSX [18:29] hi [18:29] i need help [18:29] montem: xterm [18:30] montem, standard gnome-terminal is fine [18:30] I installed ubuntu on my chomebook (acer r11) with crouton, but when i type "sudo startunity" the screen goes black and comes back to this: http://pastebin.com/L1k4XLAP [18:30] Is there a reason why the left click stops working for some time then eventually works again. Ubuntu 16.04 [18:31] jdfsajd, you might want to reask in #crouton [18:31] nicomachus: i am searching the web for terminal emulator many are suggesting Termintor. so, which one is better? [18:32] montem: that's an opinion, it depends on what you want/need. [18:32] montem, Hyperterm is coolish [18:33] montem: standard gnome-terminal, xterm, Hyperterm, Termintor, whatever. They all work. The rest is up to you, we can't help with your aesthetic decisions. [18:33] I use the default term with zsh + ohmyzsh :) [18:33] nacc: i use linux as parallel desktop in OSX. So, i am not regular user of ubuntu terminal, but i want multiple window or tab. [18:34] standard gnome-terminal is best :-) and has tabs [18:34] ^ [18:34] OerHeks: ok i will try gnome-terminal, thanks [18:34] tabs is nice. [18:35] Is gnome-term on ubuntu as default? [18:35] yes [18:35] I run that and no tabs :( [18:36] Edit -> Preferences -> "Open new terminal in [Tabs]" [18:36] ah thank you kind sir nicomachus [18:36] ctrl SHIFT t opens new tab [18:36] ctrl ALT t new terminal, easy to remember [18:37] You would think that would be a default. Thanks [18:37] OerHeks: plebs. gotta change that shortcut to ALT+T. Less fingers needed. :D [18:38] * OerHeks presses ctrl pgup on nicomachus' keyboard [18:38] nix_: i think OerHeks talking about terminal comes with gnome-ubuntu [18:38] 5~ [18:38] montem, = gnome-terminal [18:38] Yeah, If I run gnome-terminal it's the one I use, the default terminal. [18:39] But is there and explanation why the left click suddenly stops working, and then eventually comes back? [18:40] I guess I could try and throw my mouse around a bit? [18:40] nix_: have you tried another mouse? [18:41] nicomachus: change battery if wireless mouse [18:41] wired [18:41] nix_: ^^ [18:41] that too, nix_ ^ [18:42] What happened to dirty mouse sanctuary? [18:42] I will try the mouse on another ubuntu install I have to see if it's the mouse or something else.

Very frustrating [20:03] lupus: i guess maybe you are using android studio or something? perhaps ask in their channel (I think they have their own) [20:03] gutschke: ok -- you might ask in #launchpad and mention your OOPS id [20:03] I tried multiple times. I logged out and back in. I enter just minimal text. I seems unrelated to what I type. I think, it's just the package that can't accept bug reports. [20:03] gutschke: iirc, livepatch is actually a snap anyways, not sure if that's the right place to report the bug [20:03] \exit [20:04] That's the place that the official announcement of the service recommended. === Salamiwarrior is now known as Bigotto [20:04] If I was a paying subscriber, than there apparently are other ways to report bugs [20:04] gutschke: ok, i wasn't sure [20:04] gutschke: aiui, unless the LP devs put something in place, it shouldn't OOPs for a specific package like that [20:05] gutschke: what was the failure message (from livepatch) btw? [20:05] nacc: that's what I thought. But I can't spot anything else that would be unique to my bug report. And it is somewhat suspicious that this package seems to have zero bugs filed against it. [20:06] gutschke: suspicous indeed, hence i'd ask the LP folks (in #launchpad) [20:06] sruli: did that conf file help? [20:06] So during package upgrade, a new kernel tried to install but my /boot folder is full. I'm trying to purge old ones, but I just get "linux-image-generic : Depends: linux-image-4.4.0-64-generic but it is not going to be installed" which is the new one [20:06] It successfully applied a whole bunch of CVE fixes this morning and then asked me to reboot. I did that, and afterwards LivePatch silently failed to restart. In other words, while I think I am still protected, I am not! === rumble is now known as grumble [20:07] and trying to run "apt -f install" like it says fails because there is no space left! anyone know how to fix this? [20:07] bnason: how are you purging them? [20:07] nacc: idea-ultimate is a binary afaik [20:07] The error message is that it no longer likes my Ubuntu distribution. It insists that it only supports 16.04 LTS -- which of course is what I have been running all along. [20:07] apt purge linux-image-4.4.0-31-generic linux-image-4.4.0-34-generic.... [20:07] bnason: just use `apt autoremove` [20:07] bnason: purging manually will continue the installation immediately [20:08] bnason: iirc [20:08] nacc, autoremove gives me the same message, 1 sec elt me post it [20:08] nacc: changing the system font and rebooting seemed to have resolved my problem [20:08] Is Ubuntu better than Debian? [20:08] http://pastebin.com/NH7Dk49N [20:08] lupus: ok [20:08] lmw: that's a matter of opinion [20:09] ah -f is going forward i think [20:09] ducasse: going to try it now === kosta__ is now known as kosta7 [20:11] Ubuntu core is "transactionally updated"? What does this mean? apt package manager? [20:11] nope still failing arg [20:12] webly: no, core doesn't use apt [20:12] bnason: you might have to use dpkg manually if you're wedged like this [20:13] bnason: can you pastebin `ls -ahl /boot` [20:13] hello ubuntu channel [20:13] nacc: oh cool, a bit what Courgette does with Google Chrome? :) [20:13] webly: i don't know what that is [20:13] webly: but i'd assume not [20:15] ioria: sorry, I was out. I'm reading what you just wrote [20:16] gutschke: as an interim solution, see if livepatch snap was recently updated, and rollback if so? [20:16] ioria: I tried to compile the git clone too, blacklisted the modprobe one, and installed the git one. But have the same problem [20:17] faLUCE, no networks listed ? [20:17] ioria: no networks listed [20:18] I'm not at my Macintosh right now, but tit seems updating from 12.04 to 14.04 basically messed with my display settings, such that the only resolution I can see and choose is 1600x1200, instead of 1920x1080 like it was originally. (PowerPC, Mac, ATI Radeon 7000) [20:18] Is there an easy solution I could copy down and use at the mac when I get home? :) [20:18] faLUCE, ca you paste journalctl -u systemd-modules-load.service [20:19] I've just added my bluetooth earbugs via a medialink bluetooth USB adapter. Trying to figure out how to select my earbuds. http://pasteboard.co/BVdgj5aFY.png [20:19] ioria: currently I removed the git installed, and un-blacklisted the black list. Should I redo that? [20:19] faLUCE, nope [20:21] ioria: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24054996/ [20:21] nacc i think dpkg --purge is working, thanks [20:21] ducasse: i added that conf file, no difference, anything else i can try? [20:21] bnason: cool [20:21] Ubuntu latest stable vs Ubuntu LTS for Web developers? :) Especially for a Linux VM that is used on windows. [20:22] webly: If you need to ask a question like that, the answer is LTS, always. [20:22] faLUCE, sudo lshw -C Network [20:22] sruli: i gtg in a minute, but read the alsa page on the arch wiki, it has a lot of useful info. [20:23] ducasse: actuallt, i now get outoput on amxer, just cant figure out where to set the volume, thnaks [20:23] ioria: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24055005/ [20:23] sruli: run 'alsamixer' [20:24] faLUCE, if you shutdown the other wifi ? [20:24] ioria: in fact I was thinking about a conflict, given that they are both realtek [20:24] ioria: let's try [20:24] (disconnecting) [20:25] faLUCE, try to down it and configure the wlxf4f26d110211 interface [20:25] faLUCE, wireless=unassociated [20:25] bekks: when I need to ask that question :) so this means that I am a ubuntu beginner and should embrace stabilitiy [20:26] webly: it means run lts unless you have a real *need* not to [20:27] ioria: disconnected the other nic, plugged the usb one, and got this from dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24055020/ [20:27] ioria: note "[gio feb 23 21:25:00 2017] Error: Driver 'r8188eu' is already registered, aborting..." [20:28] faLUCE, did you removed the git module ? [20:28] ioria: yes, but I did not reboot [20:28] after removing [20:29] let's reboot [20:30] ducasse: thanks:) [20:30] ducasse: the hdmi card has no volume option, how can i set it to use the intel PCH? [20:31] sruli: you can't set volume through pavucontrol either? [20:33] ducasse: cant open it http://paste.ubuntu.com/24055045 [20:34] ioria: disconnected from the non-usb wifi, plugged the usb wifi and this is dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/24055043/ [20:34] (I can't see its network yet) [20:35] ioria: maybe it has something to do with ipv6 [20:35] ducasse: found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pavucontrol/+bug/881797 will try it now [20:35] Launchpad bug 881797 in pavucontrol (Ubuntu) "pavucontrol will not launch missing lib fresh 64 bit xubuntu install" [Undecided,Invalid] [20:35] faLUCE, have you edited the new interface configuration ? [20:35] ioria: yes, it's configured as a hotspot with network-manager [20:35] sruli: try reinstalling libatkmm-1.6-1v5 [20:35] sruli: but to switch, replace both 'card 0' with 'card 1' [20:36] faLUCE, well, first i'd try if it works normally .... set it static . You know how ? [20:37] ducasse: only that one, in the bug report it suggest a list of packages (thanks for adding the 'v5' its not in the list and got an error) [20:37] ioria, what do you mean with static? [20:38] ioria: static ip? [20:38] faLUCE, you need your ssid, your router passphrase, ip, netmask (255.255.255.0) and dns 8.8.8.8. right click on Network icon and 'Edit onnection' [20:38] ioria: do you mean that I should try It as a client to my router, instead of hotspot? [20:39] faLUCE, yes [20:40] sruli: which ubuntu are you on btw? [20:41] faLUCE, in IPv4 tab, i mean [20:42] ducasse: lubuntu 16.04 , i had to install all packages listed in teh bug report to get pauvcontrol runiing, i change to card 0, will reboot now and test (sudo apt-get --reinstall install libsigc++-2.0-0v5 libpangomm-1.4-1v5 libcairomm-1.0-1v5 libglibmm-2.4-1v5 libatkmm-1.6-1v5) [20:44] i am running ubuntu-gnome on my laptop, and the battery lasts around 2 hours with browsing, streaming, coding, activities [20:44] is it normal? since the ubuntu-gnome also has many animations by default? [20:46] ducasse: as if by magic, i now have sound ;-) thanks and thank you ioria & OerHeks [20:46] ioria: it works as a client. Then there are two possibilities: 1) network manager is messing stuff 2) the driver doesn't work as hotspot [20:46] can someone help me.. firstly how do you get internet access in the recovery console again? === paolo_ is now known as faLUCE [20:47] sruli: yw :) [20:47] ioria: it works as a client. Then there are two possibilities: 1) network manager is messing stuff 2) the driver doesn't work as hotspot [20:47] faLUCE, ok ...mmmm === manfred is now known as Guest36295 [20:48] oh nm [20:48] faLUCE, not an 'hotspot' specialist... but you need also ethernet for that [20:48] Kingsy: OIn the recovery console menu, enable networking option . [20:48] faLUCE, sy, you have eth driver=r8168 [20:49] or is it some menu pref to be save power man or boost power man? [20:49] hi, i am looking for a way to get chrome ( and/or chromium ) to send notifications with libnotify instead of the chrome buildin nnotification so it gets better integrated into your desktop - is there a way ? [20:50] Bashing-om: thanks [20:50] sruli, tell us details ... :þ [20:50] Need help. I am running Ubuntu 16. I connected it to a mointor that has a a low resolution. WHen Ubuntu boots, nothing shows up. Its just a black screen. WHen I change the moinitor a high resolution monitor, eveyrthing works fine [20:50] here is a question, I hvae just installed ubuntu minimal. No DE, no extra packages.. and it hangs just after it shows the blocks etc for the main drive... [20:51] however if I install ubuntu desktop it works.. boots up just fine [20:51] Kingsy: I slow but get there . Glad ya seen the way . [20:51] Kingsy: hit alt-f1 - I bet you get a login prompt [20:51] CarlFK: alt f1? erm ok but I cant see why that would work [20:52] CarlFK: na, no login prompt [20:52] Kingsy: alt-f1 to f7 flip between VGs [20:52] it hangs at /dev/sda1: clean, blah blah [20:52] Kingsy: alt-f1 to f7 flip between VTs [20:52] CarlFK: no effect [20:52] ioria: I'm seeing that network-manager (or network-manager's GUI) is messing up stuff. it's not the first time. I had many problems with network-manager in the past [20:53] I am thinking its something to do with my gfx card but I just don't see why it matters if I don't have a DE [20:53] surely the opensource drivers should be enough to get my to a prompt [20:53] faLUCE, i see, how are creating the hotspot ? [20:53] ioria: firstly i created /etc/asound.conf with config from http://termbin.com/rb9g (from ducasse) installed pauvcontrol (pauvcontrol didnt work needed to reinstall all pkgs from #4 in launchpad bug 881797) still couldnt get hdmi to work so changed to pch by changing 0 to 1 in /etc/asound.conf [20:53] Launchpad bug 881797 in pavucontrol (Ubuntu) "pavucontrol will not launch missing lib fresh 64 bit xubuntu install" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/881797 [20:54] ioria: in fact, I don't see the new connection in the list. I have to choose an existing connection and then I have to choose the NIC in a window, on the fly [20:54] Kingsy: hmm.. hold shift down on boot to get grub menu, try rescue mode. see if that gets you to a prompt [20:54] CarlFK: there is only recovery and normal mode from what I see hold on [20:54] ioria: I created the hotspot with the network manager GUI [20:54] sruli, thanx [20:54] Kingsy: In a minimal install, try and tell the kernel you are booting to a terminal . in the grub boot line remove quiet splash and all after . and insert the term text . [20:54] Kingsy: I am having a similar issue, except I don't care because I am sshing into the box so I haven't dug into it [20:55] sruli: aplay -l gives you the card number to use, so you know [20:55] Bashing-om: what is "insert the term text .' ? [20:55] CarlFK: oh weird.. I managed to get to a login by entering recovery mode then just resuming startup [20:55] Kingsy: same here [20:55] hrm [20:56] ducasse: added to my notes, thanks [20:56] CarlFK: given that I don't know what the problem is I am not sure how to proceed [20:56] Kingsy: oh, it may be ctrl-alt-f1 to 7... [20:56] CarlFK: Instead of the boot parameters "quiet splash ro vt_handoff=7" replace them with the word text . [20:56] hello [20:57] installing openobox now [20:57] I'll install lightdm too [20:57] see if it boots :P [20:57] Bashing-om: ah. thanks. Kingsy do that "text" thing ^^^ [20:57] ok will do if this doesnt work [20:57] Kingsy: Did you install xorg in this minimal install ? === paolo_ is now known as faLUCE [20:57] Bashing-om: no [20:57] installing it now [20:58] Kow: K; no xorg == no GUI . [20:58] lol https://postimg.org/image/wpvmyqvlj/ [20:58] Bashing-om: yeah its not that I wasnt getting a GUI. I wasnt getting to a prompt [20:59] wow lightdm needs ALOT of stuff [20:59] heh [20:59] Kingsy: Not to belabor the obvious; but you did verify the .iso download file ? [20:59] it was much work getting the screenshot out of the laptop [21:00] Bashing-om: yeah I did a checksum on it [21:00] Bashing-om: also, like I say, it works for unity [21:00] but I hate unity :P [21:00] Kingsy: On my core install . singe user system .. there is no need of a login manager . useless overhead in my opinion . [21:01] Bashing-om: so how do you get into the GUI? startx? [21:02] well. just saw that network-manager is a complete disaster. I don't understand why ubuntu still uses it [21:03] Kingsy: Yeah something similar / with xfce it is ' startxfce4 " I would expect openbox top have something similar . Once configs are done one can then start the GUI with the command ' startx ' . [21:03] Bashing-om: got ya, yeah thats no good here. This is an HTPC so it needs to be friendly :) [21:05] hmm what login manager does unity use? [21:06] Kingsy, .. but you hate unity ? [21:07] hehe thats why I am asking [21:08] Kingsy: I do not think you need or want lightdm if ya going to run openbox . gemme a tic to hunt up a guide for the minimal install . [21:09] yeah lightdm wAs the wrong choice I purged it [21:10] hi guys [21:10] I need a help about users [21:11] !details | heari [21:11] heari: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you.

[21:12] On Ubuntu 16.04. Working on an application with some friends, a basic Twitch IRC bot. [21:12] I took message from shell [21:12] Bashing-om: nice [21:12] ducasse: you still around? [21:15] Bashing-om: I could try out SLiM [21:15] question has anyone experience installing https://github.com/apple/ccs-calendarserver ?

[21:20] Hey all, if I chmod my working directory for Python to 777 will hackers be able to access the server hosting my Django app? [21:21] DustBunny: not necessarily, but it can make their life easier if they manage to find a vulnerability. Does your python app need to be able to write to that directory? [21:21] DustBunny, could well be, 777 is silly [21:22] argh I just don't understand... riddle me tis [21:22] this [21:22] DustBunny, time to reinstall ;-) [21:22] It's a RESTful API and according to my error logs it's because some of the files it accesses don't have the proper permissions [21:22] I install ubuntu minimal, install openbox, and lightdm reboot and it works (well I get to the login screen). Do the exact same thing but with Slim and it crashes on the /dev/sda1: clean ... files ... blocks screen [21:23] what in the world [21:23] Kingsy: Not find the one I want for a guide - poor memory that I have - but this: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/minimal is good . [21:23] Bashing-om: seem my message above?? [21:23] really weird [21:23] DustBunny: what does their documentation say the proper permissions are? [21:24] Need help. I am running Ubuntu 16 on a desktop. I have Monitor 1 which supports 1920x1080. Monitor 2 supports 1280x800. When I connect the desktop to Mintor 1, it works perfect. However, when I connect to Mointor 2, I end up booting to a blacksccreen after the Ubuntu's purple sccreen. I edited GRUB to include "nomodeset" which allows me to properly set boot Mointor 1 and 2. However, I am unable [21:24] to change the mointor resolution. [21:24] Well it doesn't say, just errno 13 [21:24] "Errno 13: Permission Denied" [21:24] Zythyr: you can use xrandr to set it manually [21:25] Kingsy: I do think ya got to configure the login manager ( slim ) . In all instances can you boot to terminal and then try and start the GUI ? [21:25] Zythyr: see here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [21:26] nicomachus I used the command xrandr, but it only had one opption for hte reoslution which is 640x480 [21:27] I'm trying to get my bluetooth earbuds to work with Ubuntu. Ubuntu sees them and has paired them....but it shows connection off. What can I do? === kosta_ is now known as kosta7 [21:27] Bashing-om: only if I enter recovery mode first [21:27] Bashing-om: which seems weird in itself? why would that work but booting directly wouldnt? [21:28] Bashing-om: sorry I cant remember what you said early about grub options.. could that be the fix? [21:28] Kingsy: Then something is hosed up if the only access you have is via recovery . In Booting to terminal the GUI graphic's driver is not at that time even loaded . [21:29] Bashing-om: thig is tho, if I install lightdm then reboot it works.. no recovery mode needed I get to the login screen [21:30] nacc: how enable it to run at startup? is that an extra step when setting up systemd script? [21:31] Kingsy: All I can think of for lightdm working is the default settings 'work' whereas for slim ya got to set them . Want to try and biit to terminal - login to the system from there ? [21:31] nacc: i can do "service myapp start" and THAT works...just not automagically when i reboot [21:31] biit/boot* [21:31] theseb: something like `systemctl enable NAME` iirc [21:33] Kingsy: Ouch ! .. wait one .. what release is this - systemd ? - then we got to do a different parameter to get to terminal . [21:33] nacc: it is a shame they just don't all fire up at bootup [21:33] Bashing-om: yeah 16.10. Oh there we go. [21:33] Bashing-om: I am at a login screen now... [21:33] openbox doesnt install xorg as a dependency ? [21:34] now I feel stupid [21:35] however I am still unsure why I cant just clean boot to a terminal prompt.... :P [21:35] Kingsy: All a process of learning . minimal install you tell the system what and when to install . dependencies ! [21:35] just thought it was an apt-get thing [21:36] Bashing-om: any thoughts on my previous message? Why can I clean boot into a login manager but I cAnt into a terminal prompt? [21:36] I has to be something to do with my gfx card or setup [21:39] Kingsy: Let's tell the kernel ya want to boot to terminal . at the grub boot menu 'e' key for edit mode => boot parameters screen; arrow down to the line starting with linux and replace quiet splash and all after with systemd.unit=multi-user.target . key combo ctl+x to continue to TTY1 terminal . [21:40] Bashing-om: cool, but surely that cant be a feature? the system crashes if you do not have a GUI unless you tell it not to crash...

[22:15] OerHeks: no, I solved the earlier issue (access point) [22:15] OerHeks: the access point issue was only a network-manager GUI issue [22:17] hrm, I just don't understand.. haha [22:19] Kingsy: can you pastebin `apt-cache show nvidia-378` ? [22:19] Kingsy: a thought; as this is a fresh install , after the install of the system completed the 1st thing you did was ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' ??? [22:20] Bashing-om: yeah done that [22:20] nacc: sure 1 second [22:20] Kingsy: All I can say too is weird . [22:21] i suspect as part of lightdm [22:21] what is preferred? apt upgrade or dist-upgrade? [22:22] comptekki, both are valid, but do different things [22:22] nacc: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24055593 [22:22] !distu-upgrade [22:22] comptekki: apt has upgrade and full-upgrade, technically, dist-upgrade is for compat with apt-get [22:23] !distupgrade [22:23] A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [22:24] it seems that if I use just upgrade not everything gets updated, but dist-upgrade does. I need to check closer the diff... [22:25] comptekki: with `apt`, I would recommend using full-upgrade if you only are interested in staying up to date [22:26] nacc: any ideas on that? I don't see anything funny in that output you asked for... but its 100% asking to install gnome when I try to install this [22:26] Kingsy: can you show it in a pastebin? [22:26] nacc, ok thanks [22:26] checking man apt now [22:27] one moment [22:29] yeah - looks like apt full-upgrade would do it like apt-get dist-upgrade [22:39] OerHeks: solved (work-around) in this way http://askubuntu.com/questions/804607/ubuntu-16-04-wifi-intel-7265-slow-disconnecting [22:40] nacc: https://hastebin.com/ixujobikak.sql [22:40] nacc: bloody hell that took some doing, couldnt copy out of rxvt for some reason [22:54] Kingsy: presuming you had networking, you can use pastebinit [22:55] nacc: I couldnt it was hanging beause it wanted a Y/n [22:55] nacc: anyway, doesnt matter.. you see the output? weird eh? [22:55] Kingsy: ah i see -- it is weird [22:55] Kingsy: you could try and figure it out via `apt-cache rdepends...` [22:55] Kingsy: starting with some gnome package [22:55] Kingsy: and going backwards until you hit nvidia-378 [22:56] nacc: but lets say I figure out a dependency.. how do I resolve it? [22:56] is it ultimately.. I cant install the driver this way unless I install all this crap? [22:58] Where can I find a program for doing a timeline for my Ubuntu desktop? [22:58] good evening [22:59] I can't find /etc/rc.local anymore in 16.10. What should I use, instead? [22:59] Correction ... I want to prepare a timeline of events in my life with my Ubuntu based desktop [23:00] Kingsy: I too experienced somewhat similar - new nVida card on 14.04 minimal - I declined installing the poriprietary driver due to all the bloat also installed . I do not recall what all the ystem wanted to install, however . [23:00] Bashing-om: I see. [23:00] well I am going to install the driver.. even if I have to do it oem [23:01] i want to ask about kdc kinit: Cannot find KDC for realm "KHALID.LOCAL" while getting initial credentials === jackNemrod_ is now known as jackNemrod [23:03] anyhelp about tht [23:05] Is there a place for getting help? Can I get some help on a system freeze problem? [23:05] Quit [23:06] !details | expert975 [23:06] expert975: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. [23:06] Kingsy: right, you probably can't work around it [23:08] hi, i am looking for a way to get chrome ( and/or chromium ) to send notifications with libnotify instead of the chrome buildin nnotification so it gets better integrated into your desktop - is there a way ? [23:08] I'm using ElementaryOS. My problem is, if I open a minimum amount of programs, the system freezes. [23:08] !elementary | expert975 [23:08] expert975: Elementary OS is an Ubuntu derivative which is supported in their IRC channel #elementary on irc.freenode.net - http://elementaryos.org/ for more information on this distribution. [23:09] any idea about this? rc.local is missing in 16.10.... this is weird.... [23:09] im tryin to make a domain controller but everytime i reach the step of kinit administrator@KHALID.LOCAL it gives me the message kinit: Cannot find KDC for realm "KHALID.LOCAL" while getting initial credentials [23:09] thyriaen: I think you need to use an extension e.g. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/libnotify-notifications-i/epckjefillidgmfmclhcbaembhpdeijg [23:10] that extension doesnt work [23:10] hasnt been maintained since 2014 or something [23:10] Why for some install via apt-get do I have to manually install dependencies (also via apt-get). Shouldn't i just be prompted to install any dependencies if it was packaged correctly? [23:11] jak-e: such as? and for what version of ubuntu? [23:12] thyriaen: Oh sorry, it's been a while since I last used :-\ [23:12] thyriaen: did you read http://askubuntu.com/questions/465727/activate-chrome-native-notifications ? [23:14] jak-e, when you install a pkg, it also tells you it will install pkg-commom, for example. It does install deps [23:16] thyriaen: other than that, you should ask in #chromium [23:16] ah nice [23:16] thank you [23:16] will do <3 [23:17] Thanks pavlos and nacc, I think you've answered my question. [23:18] brainwash, i have not but i will thanks [23:18] jak-e, example, I tried (dry-run) to install psensor, it will bring psensor-common as well. http://paste.ubuntu.com/24055952/ [23:34] more joins quits than chatting going on in here lol [23:37] haha yup [23:37] I am still raging about this nvidia issue [23:38] I'm trying to get my bluetooth earbuds to work with Ubuntu. Ubuntu sees them and has paired them....but it shows connection off. What can I do? [23:43] mylisto: try this, just found it https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2276467 [23:55] how can i get udev to write to a file vendor & idproduct of usb device each time they connect [23:56] in other words i want to "echo {idVendor}:{idProduct} > /file"
