| Bashing-om | Afdal: Afdal Maybe check ' cat /var/log/dpkg.log | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| kaosine | Bashing-om: especially since my sister is going to be using it and I want the thing to last for as long as possible once I get the disk burned and installed to try laptop | 00:01 |
| k1l | Afdal: /var/log/apt/ and look at the logs there | 00:02 |
| Bashing-om | kaosine: I am prejudiced in favor of xfce . All I can say . | 00:02 |
| Mitchy | what command line web browser uses the least of resources ? | 00:03 |
| Afdal | hmmph | 00:03 |
| DocMAX | pavlos, rc2 is before what? | 00:03 |
| kaosine | Bashing-om: that's what another guy was telling me so probably downloading xubuntu then to make things easy | 00:03 |
| Afdal | Well I don't see "libopus" or "opus" in recent package updates anywhere... | 00:03 |
| Afdal | What could it have been that broke Opus detection | 00:04 |
| wedgie | Mitchy: curl or wget are what you want. And you've already been given examples for both of them. | 00:04 |
| Mitchy | ok sorry | 00:05 |
| Mitchy | wget i only used for downloading | 00:06 |
| kaosine | Bashing-om: which means the computer will be going from Vista to xubuntu. Man that still feels weird to say. Though I hope I can teach my sister how to export from libre to ms | 00:06 |
| Bashing-om | kaosine: While xfce is very customizable and cinfigurable to the extreme - getting away from default is a steep learning curve - there be dragons ! But it is why is it so configurable ! | 00:07 |
| kaosine | Bashing-om: I just know I'm staying far away from unity. That is a resource hog. I liked gnome better | 00:08 |
| Bashing-om | kaosine: You are going about it the right direction ; burn ya a xubuntu disk amd see what you like . | 00:09 |
| === Trystam is now known as Tristam | ||
| kaosine | Bashing-om: if I don't (or in this case my sister) I have 9 more discs XD | 00:10 |
| Bashing-om | kaosine: http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ . | 00:11 |
| Mitchy | wedgie i did a little readback but when i try the given example of do wget -qO- http://www.google.com > sleep 300; done i get syntax error | 00:13 |
| tgm4883 | Mitchy: it would help to post the error, but my guess is that sleep doesn't take that input | 00:14 |
| tgm4883 | you probably want && there | 00:14 |
| wedgie | the > makes no sense. change that to a ; | 00:14 |
| tgm4883 | or rather, stick it in cron | 00:14 |
| tgm4883 | yea ; is better than && in this case | 00:15 |
| wedgie | 15:06 < OerHeks> Mitchy, something like " while true; do wget -qO- http://www.google.com > /dev/null; sleep 300; done " | 00:15 |
| Mitchy | im trying to learn but idk how to go about that | 00:15 |
| tgm4883 | you apparently fail at copy & paste | 00:15 |
| wedgie | or, cron: | 00:15 |
| tgm4883 | which is ok, we all fail sometimes :) | 00:16 |
| wedgie | 15:48 < wedgie> Mitchy: run ''crontab -e'' then enter this: | 00:16 |
| wedgie | 15:48 < wedgie> */5 * * * * /usr/bin/curl --silent http://your.site.com/whatever.php > /dev/null 2>&1 | 00:16 |
| Mitchy | i never used cron so im sorry i dont know | 00:16 |
| tgm4883 | first things first, I'd make sure that running "/usr/bin/curl --silent http://your.site.com/whatever.php" does what you want it to | 00:16 |
| tgm4883 | Mitchy: for as much leeway that I give new users, wedgie literally gave you the exact command to run and the exact line to add.... | 00:17 |
| wedgie | has to substitute his own URL, of course, but yeah. | 00:17 |
| Mitchy | sorry i got on your nerves, im used to see what happends and when i copy the command while true; do wget -qO- http://www.google.com > /dev/null; sleep 300; done nothing happends at least not that i can see | 00:21 |
| wedgie | Mitchy: that's by design. It runs every 5 mins and hides all output. Because, presumably, you don't care what the output was, only that the script got hit and did whatever twitter stuff that it does. | 00:22 |
| Mitchy | aha ok thanks for clearing that part | 00:23 |
| wedgie | remove the > /dev/null if you really want to see it | 00:25 |
| Mitchy | it creates a sleep file in my folder | 00:28 |
| lucidguy | any mdadm savvy people here? | 00:29 |
| wedgie | Mitchy: then you're still not copy/pasting correctly :( | 00:29 |
| Mitchy | while true; do wget -qO- http://www.google.com > sleep 300; done | 00:30 |
| Mitchy | thats what i used | 00:30 |
| wedgie | I don't think I can help you. I'm sorry. | 00:31 |
| Mitchy | ah i forgot to remove the > | 00:32 |
| roadrunneratwast | hi gang. i hope my computer isn't breaking down again. but probably | 00:34 |
| roadrunneratwast | i am getting i/o errors on boot | 00:34 |
| roadrunneratwast | blk_update_request butffer I/O error on /dev/sda | 00:35 |
| roadrunneratwast | sector | 00:35 |
| roadrunneratwast | what do i want to do now? run fsck.ext4 on the next boot? | 00:36 |
| Ben64 | sounds like a dying hard drive | 00:36 |
| roadrunneratwast | how do i do this ? | 00:36 |
| roadrunneratwast | :( | 00:36 |
| roadrunneratwast | nooooooooo | 00:36 |
| roadrunneratwast | i went through this before | 00:36 |
| Bashing-om | roadrunneratwast: In the case of I/O erroros - 1st thing is check the hard drive's health . smartmontools . | 00:36 |
| roadrunneratwast | yeah | 00:36 |
| roadrunneratwast | smart tools said it wasn't so healthy | 00:36 |
| pavlos | DocMAX, I suggested /etc/rc2.d/ which is multi-user and networking. Isnt that runlevel the earliest you can use? | 00:37 |
| DocMAX | and then? what i need to do? | 00:37 |
| DocMAX | put a script in there? | 00:37 |
| roadrunneratwast | so do i need to get a new hard drive? | 00:37 |
| roadrunneratwast | or can i do fsck -c ? | 00:38 |
| Ben64 | time to replace the drive | 00:38 |
| roadrunneratwast | no | 00:38 |
| roadrunneratwast | i just replaced it | 00:39 |
| roadrunneratwast | ugh | 00:39 |
| DocMAX | i need to mount after network is up | 00:39 |
| tarball | hello everyone, I have two lists of packages that I created with aptitude and dpkg respectively. now I am trying to install them on a new system, but I couldnt find the right command in my searches | 00:39 |
| lafleurdubien | Anybody have an issue with Ubuntu 16.04 where wifi stops working and you are unable to reconnect? | 00:40 |
| Bashing-om | roadrunneratwast: Might be best ' sudo smartctl --all /dev/sda | pastebinit ' and we have a gander at the data . | 00:40 |
| roadrunneratwast | ok | 00:40 |
| wedgie | tarball: what format is this list in? | 00:40 |
| tarball | wedgie, both are plain text files | 00:41 |
| tarball | one list is from dpkg, the other from aptitude | 00:41 |
| roadrunneratwast | bashing-om it started when i forced quit from a slow hibernate | 00:41 |
| wedgie | tarball: can you patebin the contents? A handful of lines from each file should be fine | 00:42 |
| roadrunneratwast | rather it was slow to wake up from a hibernate http://paste.ubuntu.com/24061998/ | 00:42 |
| tarball | wedgie, sure | 00:43 |
| ragnarock_2 | Woohoo! | 00:43 |

| roadrunneratwast | can you tell anything from the # 1 Short offline Completed: read failure 90% 4950 247534441 | 00:43 |
| roadrunneratwast | is that doom? | 00:43 |
| roadrunneratwast | impending doom | 00:43 |
| roadrunneratwast | ? | 00:44 |
| lafleurdubien | Please help! My 16.04 installation loses wifi connection after suspend and its completely unable to reconnect | 00:44 |
| lafleurdubien | happens every time I wake from suspend | 00:45 |
| wedgie | roadrunneratwast: yes, impending doom. Make sure your backups are current | 00:45 |
| roadrunneratwast | ugh | 00:45 |
| Bashing-om | roadrunneratwast: Toss that drive . No longer able to reallocate bad sectors among several other problems . | 00:45 |
| roadrunneratwast | :( | 00:46 |
| roadrunneratwast | blah | 00:47 |
| Bashing-om | roadrunneratwast: Hey It happens . Even the best drives only have a 5 year life expenctancy . Good thing that SSDs have come on .. Hard drives are cheap ! | 00:48 |
| roadrunneratwast | they are much cheaper than i thought | 00:48 |
| roadrunneratwast | so that's good | 00:48 |
| wedgie | roadrunneratwast: take the opportunity ot upgrade to an ssd :D | 00:49 |
| Bashing-om | roadrunneratwast: +1 wedgie . Makes a world of difference . | 00:49 |
| roadrunneratwast | do you think an fsck would help tide me over? | 00:49 |
| roadrunneratwast | for a bit? | 00:50 |
| wedgie | roadrunneratwast: no. It's not a filesystem problem | 00:50 |
| wedgie | that drive is a ticking timebomb. Plan accordingly | 00:50 |
| tarball | wedgie, I tried a few things meanwhile but still cant get it right..this is the paste: paste.ubuntu.com/24062029 | 00:50 |
| roadrunneratwast | oh fiddlesticks | 00:50 |
| Bashing-om | roadrunneratwast: That drive is dying . IF there is anything on that drive you value . get it off that drive NOW / Do not use it untill your data is safe . | 00:51 |
| roadrunneratwast | bah i don't have anything important on here | 00:51 |
| roadrunneratwast | but muck fy lime | 00:52 |
| Bashing-om | roadrunneratwast: I can feel a new fresh install of 16.04 on a most excellent SSD in your furure . | 00:52 |
| roadrunneratwast | haha | 00:53 |
| roadrunneratwast | thanks | 00:53 |
| deathSong | Whats up bitch | 00:55 |
| Aurorasaura | sudo chmod 444 /test | 00:55 |
| tarball | wedgie, and this is from the output of dpkg method of listing: paste.ubuntu.com/24062047 | 00:55 |
| tarball | both files have 'i' at the start of each line, and the commands I tried rejected it..and without 'i' they give 'unable to locate package X', x being the file name in the output | 00:57 |
| lafleurdubien | Fresh install of 16.04.02 and everytime I wake from suspend I cannot connect to wifi. Even with running systemctl network-manager.service restart. The only way to get it back is reboot. | 00:57 |
| wedgie | tarball: pkgs=(); while read -r; do pkgs+=( $(awk '{print $2}') ); done < <(cat packages otherpackages) ; echo sudo apt-get install "${pkgs[@]}" | 01:02 |
| FMan | what is this 16.4.2 now? | 01:02 |
| wedgie | tarball: substitute "packages" and "otherpackages" with whatever your file names are | 01:03 |
| wedgie | tarball: and if that outputs something that looks sane, remove the "echo" and run it again | 01:03 |
| nacc | FMan: normal .release of the LTS | 01:05 |
| nacc | FMan: includes the HWE stuff by default | 01:05 |
| tarball | wedgie, thank you so much, trying them now | 01:05 |
| FMan | when did that come out? | 01:05 |
| OerHeks | year 2016, month 04 | 01:06 |
| FMan | no, the .2 | 01:06 |
| nacc | FMan: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 01:06 |
| FMan | hmh, why haven't I been told about this? | 01:06 |
| nacc | FMan: are you already on 16.04? | 01:07 |
| OerHeks | hostnamectl status # will show you | 01:07 |
| tarball | wedgie, I think that is sane :) the output is 'sudo apt-get install package1 package2 package3...package n' | 01:07 |
| wedgie | tarball: :) then run it again without the echo | 01:08 |
| tarball | wedgie, without echo it prompts to command line, without installing | 01:08 |
| nacc | FMan: if you are, and if you've kept it up to date you are already on 16.04.2 | 01:09 |
| nacc | FMan: the only difference would be opting iin to HWE | 01:09 |
| wedgie | prompts? It should prompt for your sudo password and then run apt-get install with all of those packages | 01:09 |
| nacc | !hwe | FMan | 01:09 |
| ubottu | FMan: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 01:09 |
| wedgie | tarball: pkgs=(); while read -r; do pkgs+=( $(awk '{print $2}') ); done < <(cat packages otherpackages) ; sudo apt-get install "${pkgs[@]}" | 01:10 |
| tarball | wedgie, instantly I have another problem (though this happened for the second time in the last half hour)..the monitor gets black while along the left edge green-colored pixels move, and in a few seconds the computer shuts down..this has not happened before, but happening with this fresh install. | 01:11 |
| wedgie | O_o | 01:11 |
| tarball | as a reason I think of that I didnt install the mentioned third party software for graphics, wifi, flash etc.. | 01:12 |
| FMan | I don't know what HWE stacks are and that page doesn't explain it | 01:12 |
| tarball | could it be for that reasonß | 01:12 |
| tarball | ? | 01:12 |
| nacc | FMan: then you didn't read that page -- HWE = Hardware Enablement = LTS Enablement Stack | 01:12 |
| wedgie | I doubt it. That sounds more serious. But i've never encountered such a thing so I'm not sure | 01:12 |
| OerHeks | FMan, "provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS" basicly | 01:13 |
| nacc | FMan: updated the acronym expansion onto the wiki page | 01:13 |
| FMan | I did not read it completely, but it doesn't explain it | 01:13 |
| nacc | FMan: literally the first full sentence on the page | 01:14 |
| OerHeks | FMan, well, it does, not without reading. | 01:14 |
| FMan | it talks about LTS Enablement Stacks, not HWE | 01:14 |
| nacc | FMan: as i just said, i added the bit that's confusing you | 01:14 |
| FMan | I think you are all in a conspiracy to confuse me | 01:14 |
| nacc | FMan: hit refresh | 01:14 |
| nacc | FMan: they are the same | 01:14 |
| nacc | FMan: added the bit that clarifies what is confusing you | 01:15 |
| tarball | I will check syslogs..hope it tells something | 01:15 |
| nacc | FMan: two terms for the same thing | 01:15 |

| happyfr0gg | I am getting sick and tired of these GPG No Public Key errors from apt. ARRRRRRHHHH. | 01:15 |
| joseluna | hola | 01:16 |
| bazhang | !gpgerr | happyfr0gg have you seen this | 01:16 |
| ubottu | happyfr0gg have you seen this: Getting GPG errors after adding custom repositories? Find the GPG keyword for the repository (it's 437D05B5 for the standard ones) and run « sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com <key> » | 01:16 |
| tarball | the only other thing I changed was to disable Intel AMT | 01:16 |
| tarball | ah, and a bios update | 01:16 |
| FMan | it also talks about GA stacks | 01:16 |
| nacc | FMan: GA = General Availability, the version that shipped with 16.04.1 | 01:17 |
| happyfr0gg | ubottu, Do I take the GPG key from the error I get from apt and include that in the command you gave me? | 01:17 |
| ubottu | happyfr0gg: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:17 |
| Bashing-om | happyfr0gg: ?? maybe ' sudo apt-key update ' <-which can fix the missing Ubuntu keys . | 01:18 |
| OERIAS | Can Someone help with an error that says something about withholding broken packages? | 01:18 |
| Bashing-om | OERIAS: Pastebin the command and the error . we see what we can do . | 01:18 |
| happyfr0gg | Bashing-om, I get 'resource limits'. | 01:19 |
| happyfr0gg | 4 processed and 4 unchanged. | 01:19 |
| happyfr0gg | 11 of them show resource limits at the end of their lines. | 01:21 |
| Mitchy | is there a gui in ubuntu 16.04 (unity) for making cron jobs? | 01:21 |
| Bashing-om | happyfr0gg: Ouch !! .. just how many keys do you have ' ls /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d | wc -l ' ? | 01:22 |
| OerHeks | !info gnome-schedule | 01:23 |
| ubottu | Package gnome-schedule does not exist in yakkety | 01:23 |
| OerHeks | oh | 01:23 |
| OERIAS | Bashing-om, do you know of the command that can produce the error? | 01:24 |
| Mitchy | yeh i noticed that | 01:24 |
| happyfr0gg | Bashing-om, 91 | 01:24 |
| Bashing-om | OERIAS: You can run ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' see if the error is repeatd . | 01:24 |
| tarball | is there important graphics software that needs to be manually installed among the third party software that is optionally presented during OS install? | 01:25 |
| Bashing-om | happyfr0gg: Yukkie ! .. Look there is a 40 key limit . See: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1263540 . | 01:26 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1263540 in apt (Ubuntu) "Apt-get reports NO_PUBKEY gpg error for keys that are present in trusted.gpg." [Undecided,Fix released] | 01:26 |
| happyfr0gg | Bashing-om, I am at the link you provided. How do I apply the fix? | 01:29 |
| Bashing-om | happyfr0gg: Start removing apps and keys that you do not use . You have to get below 40 keys . | 01:30 |
| OerHeks | 91 keys... it is a record !!! | 01:31 |
| happyfr0gg | I have to have less than 40 softwares on my system for my Ubuntu to be more relevent than Windows? | 01:31 |
| Bashing-om | happyfr0gg: see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2195579 for some background and guidance . | 01:31 |
| Mitchy | i thank u all for ur patience , once i got my head out of my (where the sun wont shine) i figured out what to do due to the help from you guys | 01:32 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: i have very little idea why you would need > 40 PPAs on a system | 01:32 |
| OERIAS | Bashing-om, Sudo apt update produces this : http://pastebin.com/D3JyAT5X | 01:32 |
| OerHeks | Mitchy, have fun, sorry i could not find a cron gui | 01:33 |
| happyfr0gg | I have a bunch of software on my system that I have installed over the last few years. | 01:33 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: all from PPAs? why? you understand there's no guarantee any of it is good, or maintained, etc. | 01:34 |
| Bashing-om | OERIAS: So far so good " 4 packages can be upgraded " carry on with ' sudo apt upgrade ' :) | 01:34 |
| Mitchy | its ok oerheks i was to impatient and ignorant you guys are aesome | 01:34 |
| happyfr0gg | Can I delete PPA's without affecting the software installed? | 01:35 |
| uzjsn | yes | 01:35 |
| OERIAS | Bashing-om, also worth noting Transmission has "Disappeared" | 01:35 |
| OerHeks | happyfr0gg, ppa-purge works with correct keys, AFAIK... | 01:35 |
| OerHeks | !ppapurge | 01:35 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 01:35 |
| tarball | as I mentioned above, I recently got two instant display blackouts followed by shutdowns in a short interval..I've just excluded third party software during my fresh install. could that be related to this problem? | 01:36 |
| tarball | like drivers etc.? | 01:36 |
| uzjsn | does your system overheat? | 01:36 |
| tarball | uzjsn, no | 01:36 |
| tarball | in additional drivers I only see an intel microcode firmware | 01:37 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: you can remove a PPA from your sources, but that makes you even more insecure, in some sense -- then if the PPA owner was to update, you won't see it | 01:37 |
| tarball | I just ran a bios update yesterday, and plugged/unplugged cmos socket, but after that I could work for long hours without problem, with my old OS. | 01:38 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: but if you use ppa-purge it will remove both the ppa and the installed software | 01:38 |
| OerHeks | tarball, forgotten to plug the powercord back in the videocard? | 01:38 |
| happyfr0gg | nacc, including their gpg keys. | 01:38 |
| happyfr0gg | ?? | 01:38 |
| tarball | OerHeks, but I haven't touched the videocard | 01:39 |
| happyfr0gg | nacc, including their gpg keys??? | 01:39 |
| OerHeks | tarball, your issue sounds like it. else i have no clue. | 01:40 |
| tarball | I was only trying some ram modules and meanwhile saw cmos cable was disconnected. I connected it and then removed again | 01:40 |
| tarball | OerHeks, graphic card was also what came to my mind..is there a way to check the health/proper running of it? | 01:41 |
| happyfr0gg | I had no idea that there was a limit of the number of software I could have installed on a Ubuntu system. That fucking sucks. | 01:41 |
| nacc | !language | happyfr0gg | 01:41 |
| ubottu | happyfr0gg: Please avoid any language that may be considered offensive, including acronyms and obfuscation of such - also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines || The main channels are English only, for other languages, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 01:41 |
| tgm4883 | I'm not aware of any such limitation other than your hard drive space | 01:42 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: you're not really restricted in that sense. You are restricted in the number of repositories that apt-key can handle it seems | 01:42 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: that one is tied to the other for PPAs is its own issue. | 01:42 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: but again, you ahven't really answered why you thought you needed 91 PPAs | 01:42 |
| happyfr0gg | I don't know. | 01:42 |
| tarball | wedgie, the recent command doesnt install the packages, while it mentions which packages are missing/not available among them..I thought about running your first command that returned all package names after apt-get install, copy them, and run | 01:42 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: not a great answer for something you can only do as root | 01:43 |
| happyfr0gg | I have installed software from PPA's over the years and was not aware of the GPG resource limit. | 01:43 |
| tarball | does "Checxbox" provide relevant info on this? | 01:45 |
| tgm4883 | happyfr0gg: did you paste the error message somewhere? | 01:46 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: and you understand what a PPA is and the implication of it? | 01:46 |
| Bashing-om | happyfr0gg: Mind ya lots I do not know . but : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2195579 . ( I have yet to steer you wrong in all this time ) . | 01:46 |
| happyfr0gg | A PPA is similar to Windows executables? | 01:47 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: no | 01:47 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: a PPA is like a separate archive, meaning anything you install from it, you are expressing trust to be installed as root on your system | 01:47 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: and it's wholly unsupported | 01:48 |
| kaosine | Bashing-om: welp I may have screwed up one disc if i can get the stupid thing to stop...meant to use etcher and used the mac burner instead >_< | 01:48 |
| nacc | happyfr0gg: except by the PPA owner | 01:48 |
| Bashing-om | kaosine: Ya bark'n up an alley I can not echo .. I no do Windows or Mac . | 01:49 |
| kaosine | Bashing-om: I only do it since my mom bought the computer I'm on(well the one this replaces) whoops | 01:50 |
| wedgie | tarball: if you just want the packages in a copy-paste friendly format: awk '{printf "%s ", $2}' file1 file2 | 01:50 |
| kaosine | once this comptuer goes out of warranty I'm putting ubu on it though >_> | 01:50 |
| tgm4883 | happyfr0gg: to reiterate what nacc is saying, PPA's should only be added if you trust the people making the PPA, as it's trivial to put malware on a PPA | 01:51 |

| gaurav2 | how to install java in Ubuntu | 01:54 |
| StatelessCat | gaurav2: did u read the wiki page on this ? | 01:56 |
| OerHeks | !java | 01:56 |
| ubottu | To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 01:56 |
| pinPoint | I just installed SpamAssassin, I noticed it created what looked like a group/user 'debian-spamd' for Ubuntu 16.04.x. Is that group/user 'debian-spamd' needed? | 01:57 |

| OerHeks | gaurav2, well, install java or better openjdk then? | 02:02 |
| gaurav2 | ok I'll try it today then ill tell you what issue arise thanks all | 02:03 |
| Bashing-om | kaosine: And we are back to " does not Mac have the tool 'dd' to write a hybrid image file to disk ?" . | 02:03 |
| kaosine | Bashing-om: it does but I think the issue is that for some odd reason it needs both ports so I'm going to have to see if I can somehow take etcher to the vista computer and burn the image that way then reboot it and install | 02:04 |
| kaosine | Bashing-om: my computer is seeing this thing as a 8kb disc when it's supposed to be 4.7gb XD | 02:06 |
| Bashing-om | kaosine: Ouch ! .. and what does a known medium report ? | 02:09 |
| kaosine | Bashing-om: IDK I'm guessing it really needs the second port so I'm going to hope I can get it onto the destination computer burn it and then reboot and install | 02:10 |

| craptalk | i got lenovo IdeaPad 310 15ABR, it seems that it has a bit of heat near the touchpad, how can i check if the fan is running on my machine? | 02:34 |
| craptalk | i tried using thinkpad program but is there any other way? | 02:34 |
| craptalk | or is the heat normal thing? | 02:35 |
| dimisdas | craptalk: read into lm-sensors | 02:36 |
| dimisdas | craptalk: it will give you the “sensors” command that prints temperatures and fan rpm | 02:36 |
| junktext_ | craptalk, also your BIOS may have a display menu of your laptop's temperatures detected. | 02:42 |
| kaosine | phew almost done with the burn of ubu to dvd ^_^ | 02:43 |
| junktext_ | Nice! | 02:43 |
| craptalk | junktext_, i got this message Sorry, no sensors were detected. | 02:44 |
| craptalk | This is relatively common on laptops, where thermal management is | 02:44 |
| craptalk | handled by ACPI rather than the OS. | 02:44 |
| kaosine | junktext_: well xubu....I'm going as light as possible on this thing right now | 02:44 |
| craptalk | what does it mean? | 02:44 |
| junktext_ | craptalk, so where did you get that message? You already checked out your BIOS menus? | 02:45 |
| craptalk | i got it on my terminal, i run sensors-detect | 02:46 |
| craptalk | it shows me that msg | 02:46 |
| junktext_ | Ah, yeah, I usually first check the BIOS itself as it has lower-level access. | 02:46 |
| dimisdas | I’ll take a guess and say that power management is not done by Ubuntu but something else, like BIOS | 02:47 |
| dimisdas | power and thermal management * | 02:47 |
| junktext_ | But, not every BIOS/UEFI has temperature readings. | 02:47 |
| dimisdas | Check junktext_’s suggestion | 02:47 |
| craptalk | well, what kind of configuration can i do in BIOS? is enable or disable thing? | 02:47 |
| craptalk | can i configure the speed of fans or something like that? | 02:48 |
| junktext_ | It depends on your BIOS, craptalk. But, what I am saying is that you could reboot your computer and enter the BIOS menu using like the F2 or F12 key. Within the BIOS it may show you various temperatures. | 02:48 |
| kaosine | Well that was weird. Xubuntu installer loaded weirdly and slow there for a bit | 02:49 |
| junktext_ | There may be a way to report the temperatures to Ubuntu, but I've never really cared to do that. Although, dimisdas is likely correct on his suggestion on that aspect. | 02:50 |
| dimisdas | craptalk: there’s a github project for fan control for linux kernels with the thinkpad-acpi patch, take a look | 02:52 |
| dimisdas | https://github.com/Stanko/ThinkPad-Fan-Control | 02:52 |

| OerHeks | https://launchpad.net/~transmissionbt/+archive/ubuntu/ppa this one is valid | 04:30 |
| OerHeks | but i would just use the regular transmission, nothing wrong with that. | 04:30 |
| Bashing-om | OerHeks: Oh waht sharp eyes you have . | 04:30 |
| OerHeks | but about dependencie problems, did you run sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade ?? | 04:31 |

| Shmam | Hello? | 05:37 |
| ragnarock_2 | Hello! | 05:37 |
| Shmam | This is probably pretty basic, how do I run two commands in the same shell? | 05:37 |
| ragnarock_2 | At once or one after the othr? | 05:38 |
| Shmam | one after other | 05:38 |
| ragnarock_2 | command1 ; command2 | 05:38 |
| Shmam | I need to run "vagrant run" then "vagrant ssh" | 05:38 |
| Shmam | in the same shell | 05:38 |
| Shmam | If I run vagrant up, I can't do anything else in the terminal window | 05:39 |
| ragnarock_2 | If it helps you can put & after a command so that you can keep putting in commands | 05:39 |
| pavlos | Shmam, maybe you can ask in the #vagrant channel | 05:40 |
| ragnarock_2 | But don't close the terminal if you do that. The program's attached to it :P | 05:40 |

| ragnarock_2 | I'm asking because with this old hunk of junk, there's a really weird way to boot into Linux. | 05:49 |
| tatertots | ragnarock_2: would you like to know that...i can find out | 05:49 |
| tatertots | ragnarock_2: standby | 05:49 |
| Bashing-om | tatertots: I do not know powerpc .. but a 3.2 kernel for a trusty install ??? | 05:49 |
| ragnarock_2 | Which involves being booted into Mac OS 9 first, then loading a kernel file and initrd separately | 05:49 |
| Bashing-om | !info linux-image-generic trusty | 05:50 |
| ubottu | linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 3.13.0.110.118 (trusty), package size 2 kB, installed size 30 kB | 05:50 |
| ragnarock_2 | And since Mac OS can't read ext I have to copy the kernel and initrd manually. | 05:50 |
| tatertots | ragnarock_2: this is all your grub2 shows right now https://gist.github.com/0ae4a821d6c1ce17894b7fa7feae0000 | 05:51 |

| tatertots | ragnarock_2: wouldn't do you much good anyway since there'd only be what you have now as an option | 05:52 |
| tarball | does ubuntu produce reports in ms excel format? | 05:52 |
| tatertots | ragnarock_2: you had fglrx prior to the upgrade | 05:53 |
| tatertots | ragnarock_2: after the upgrade you were left with kernel supplied driver which limited your resolution choices to http://paste.ubuntu.com/24062876/ that being said you can install from scratch your desired ubuntu version, keep what you have right now, or go back to what you had previously (as far as ubuntu version is concerned)...balls in your court | 05:55 |

| tatertots | ragnarock_2: you can try a manual strategy however YMMV | 06:00 |

| pavlos | tarball, libreoffice can read xlsx | 06:12 |
| tarball | pavlos, I ran Checbox twice, and each time the test report was created in html and xslx formats. this is what I am referring to. ubuntu tool's report is created with ms excel??! | 06:15 |
| tarball | first I thought nothing other than something going wrong, but when it was created again in the second run.. | 06:16 |
| pavlos | tarball, I have not used Checkbox but if the resulting report is in html/xls format, you can view the html via browser or use libreoffice to view the xls file. | 06:18 |
| tarball | pavlos, the point is why it is in xslx format? | 06:21 |
| tarball | Does ubuntu contain ms office? | 06:21 |
| pavlos | tarball, libreoffice and librecalc | 06:22 |
| tarball | or libre office? | 06:22 |
| tarball | pavlos, then how come the system testing tool of ubuntu created the report output as xlsx file? | 06:23 |
| pavlos | tarball, b/c if you double click it, it probably opens libre calc to view the results | 06:24 |
| tarball | pavlos, certainly it opens libre office, as ubuntu does not run ms office. but how/why is the output xlsx? | 06:25 |
| pavlos | tarball, libreoffice (writer, calc, impress) is equivalent to MSoffice (word, excel, powerpoint). | 06:27 |
| tarball | pavlos, am I not able to make the point clear? | 06:28 |
| pavlos | tarball, no ... checkbox gives you output files in various formats, one of them is xls. So, use libre calc to view it | 06:29 |
| Aurorasaura | What does vi stand for ? | 06:29 |
| tarball | pavlos, of all free formats why does ubuntu choose primarily xls -a windows format- to produce its output? am I using windows or ubuntu? | 06:30 |
| epac | Aurorasaura: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vi - it stands for the shortest ex command to get into visual mode. | 06:30 |
| Aurorasaura | like sudo vi /etc/whatever | 06:30 |
| SwedeMike | Aurorasaura: "It was not until version 2.0 of ex, released as part of Second Berkeley Software Distribution[4] in May, 1979 that the editor was installed under the name "vi" (which took users straight into ex's visual mode), and the name by which it is known today. " | 06:30 |
| Aurorasaura | Thank you epac | 06:31 |
| pavlos | tarball, interoperability ... be able to view/edit files either from libreoffice or msoffice | 06:32 |
| tarball | interoperability is not about using proprietary format instead of the free format in your hand. | 06:33 |
| Aurorasaura | Just wanted to verify that in Ubuntu server changing the /etc/passwd file for a user from /bin/bash to bin/false removes only the ability to log in to the server interface | 06:33 |
| tarball | I cant make sense of your argumentation, pavlos | 06:33 |
| tarball | let's all use windows formats, then..let's use .exe, .bat, .dll..why dont we do? let's close the FOSS shop | 06:34 |
| tarball | then maybe Redmond shows a big interest in developing ubuntu further | 06:34 |
| pavlos | tarball, libreoffice writes odt files but also has the ability to read/write excel files. Nothing to do with exe, bat, or dll | 06:35 |
| epac | anyone has a clue about debian-installer and when/where i can load drivers? | 06:36 |
| pavlos | tarball, since I cannot explain better, I hope someone else will ... | 06:36 |
| tarball | sure I will bring this up in a wider sense | 06:36 |
| uzjsn | xlsx format was designed in 2006 | 06:38 |
| tarball | so what? | 06:38 |
| tarball | it's ms | 06:38 |
| uzjsn | ods format was designed in 1994 | 06:38 |
| uzjsn | for a windows 3.1 application called StarOffice | 06:38 |
| uzjsn | it is clear which one is superior | 06:39 |
| tarball | the point is xls is ms excel, which a FOSS system is not supposed to produce its documents with | 06:39 |
| tarball | let's adopt all the "superior" stuff from windows then | 06:39 |
| tarball | let's make it SOSS..superior open source software | 06:40 |
| tarball | superior as in superior speech | 06:40 |
| epac | tarball: to a certain extent the format has been reversed engineered, so a FOSS system could. that being said, it doesn't help the argument to keep things "Free(TM)/Libre" in the long run, but it does help with interoperability. | 06:40 |
| epac | neither one is "superior" to the other, without proper context. Superior at what? | 06:41 |
| uzjsn | xls format was documented in 2001 | 06:41 |
| tarball | I didnt say superior | 06:41 |
| tarball | I quoted | 06:41 |
| uzjsn | and it is trivial to implement | 06:41 |
| uzjsn | unlike ODS which requires XML and ZIP | 06:41 |
| epac | tarball: that was more aimed at uzjsn... | 06:42 |
| tarball | epac, yes I see | 06:42 |
| epac | well, Zip is patented... | 06:42 |
| epac | so technically, not "free". | 06:42 |
| tarball | the logic of such adoption is flawed | 06:44 |
| tarball | and adoption this way is even worse, when you have options. that shows you don't care. | 06:45 |

| degenerate | hey having some problems getting my radeon r7 370 to work on ubuntu i couldnt get it to work on 16.x so im running 14.04 now tryin to see if it will work any better | 07:31 |
| degenerate | graphics/driver_version FAILED ERROR: No video driver loaded! Possibly in failsafe mode! ------------- VIDEO DRIVER INFORMATION ------------- ------------- HYBRID GRAPHICS CHECK ---------------- Graphics Chipset: AMD (1002:6811) Loaded DDX Drivers: ati, radeon, modesetting, fbdev, vesa Hybrid Graphics: no | 07:31 |
| degenerate | i got that in my system testing | 07:31 |
| degenerate | and Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.8, 256 bits) in my pc info | 07:32 |
| degenerate | i can see fglrx proprietary driver and fglfx-updates but when i click on one and hit apply chances it starts then stops and reverts back to Advanced Micro Devices Inc Using X.org X server AMD/ATI Displayu wrapper from xserver-xorg | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | degenerate: you tested this on updated systems? aka 14.04.5 and 16.04.2? | 07:35 |
| Bashing-om | degenerate: Dependent on the kernel. what kernel are you running in 14.04 ' uname -r ' ? | 07:35 |
| degenerate | degenerate@degenerate-Alienware-X51-R3:~$ uname -r | 07:36 |
| degenerate | 4.4.0-64-generic | 07:36 |

| degenerate | lotuspsychje, i couldnt find any help in 16.10 thats what i tried | 07:40 |
| Bashing-om | degenerate: No FGLRX for you '' too mew of a kernel . If ya want/need FGLRX it is either downgrade the X stack to 3.13 or clean install 14.04.1 . | 07:40 |
| degenerate | lol | 07:40 |
| degenerate | this is becoming such a headache | 07:41 |
| degenerate | all i wanted to do was try steam csgo on my alienware desktop | 07:41 |
| lord-ragnarock | (ragnarock_2 via laptop) I just did sudo apt-get install linux-powerpc-smp, which supposedly downloaded the latest kernel (3.16 I think?), but I can't seem to find it in my /boot folder, just good old 3.2 ;/ Where does apt store this stuff? | 07:41 |
| degenerate | ive tried 3 diffrent ubuntus and fresh installed maybe 7 times already .... so 14.04.01 u think will handle it? | 07:42 |
| Bashing-om | degenerate: AMD is in the midst of giving us what we asked for . there are growing pains . | 07:42 |
| epac | why is there a set of efi signed kernels in the dists folders for Xenial, but not matching updates for the initrd.gz for netbooting with? | 07:42 |
| alkisg | epac: initrd is generated, not shipped | 07:43 |

| degenerate | Bashing-om, http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/14.04.1/ 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop image correct? | 07:44 |
| Bashing-om | degenerate: Yes on 14.04.1 .. The last to support FGLRX is the 3.13 series kernels . | 07:44 |
| degenerate | ill download burn and give it a shot thanks for your help | 07:44 |
| lotuspsychje | degenerate: but then also be carefull with a (not updated) system | 07:44 |
| degenerate | well i mean what other option do i have install windows or buy another graphics card | 07:45 |
| Bashing-om | degenerate: ^^ make sure you do not opt in for HWE, as then you are back in no support for a proprietary driver . | 07:46 |
| Bashing-om | !hwe | degenerate | 07:46 |
| ubottu | degenerate: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 07:46 |
| lotuspsychje | degenerate: you can also hang at #gamingonlinux where they know alot of workarounds | 07:46 |

| darkzek | A external drive is not showing up at all, I have tried 2 cables so far neither of them work. Output of "sudo lshw -C disk": http://pastebin.com/Q3k3TjE1 | 07:50 |
| lotuspsychje | darkzek: what happens if you tail -f /var/log/syslog and plugin? | 07:51 |
| lotuspsychje | darkzek: what brand of hd? usb3 ? | 07:51 |
| mcrt | how come ati is lagging so badly with their drivers? | 07:53 |
| alkisg | darkzek: `udevadm monitor` shows usb events, connections and disconnections etc. Have it running while trying to connect the disk. Also, if the disk requires more power than your usb port offers (and you hear clinging sounds), use a usb hub which might give more power, or a Y cable with 2 USB connections to 1 | 07:53 |
| darkzek | A old usb one, dont know what version though | 07:54 |
| darkzek | tail -f /var/log/syslog returns "http://pastebin.com/LMNvG41N" | 07:55 |
| lotuspsychje | mcrt: join #ubuntu-discuss for topics on matters like that | 07:55 |
| mcrt | lotuspsychje: thanks | 07:55 |
| mcrt | s/ati/amd :P | 07:55 |
| darkzek | alkisg just tried that and nothing came up, the leds light up but no sounds or anything. Must just be dead | 07:56 |
| darkzek | Thanks for trying :) | 07:57 |
| lotuspsychje | darkzek: doesnt seem like usefull usb errors | 07:57 |
| alkisg | darkzek: try in another port with more power first | 07:58 |
| lotuspsychje | alkisg: +1 good idea | 07:58 |
| alkisg | darkzek: it's very common for disks to need 700 mh and usb ports to provide only 500 ma | 07:58 |
| alkisg | That's why the Y cables exist | 07:58 |
| alkisg | And some usb hubs provide 1000 ma, | 07:59 |
| alkisg | so if you have one that is externally powered, try putting it between the disk and the pc | 07:59 |
| darkzek | I dont have any usb hubs or anything like that, I tried on my case's usb and my extra usb extention card and neither of them work. | 08:01 |
| metaresolve | Hi. I learned psql on a VPS that I rent. I'm now working with sensitive information and want to run a virtual box on my windows machine so i can access ubuntu and psql | 08:01 |

| metaresolve | but i'm having problems installing the virtualbox. can someone help? or suggest how I might access psql? | 08:01 |

| CombuderBob | I want to mount an EncFS folder in /mnt/My_Files by pre-creating a folder and chown'ing it. Are there any security/stability issues compared to mounting it as a folder in my Home folder? | 08:24 |
| alkisg | After you mount it, verify that others cannot access it; it's not guaranteed to take the mode of the My_Files folder | 08:25 |
| alkisg | It takes the mode of the mounting options | 08:26 |
| alkisg | So if /home/username is 700, and /home/username/my_files is 755, others cannot see it; but if /mnt/my_files is 755, they'll be able to see it | 08:26 |
| CombuderBob | Ok, that seems reasonable. | 08:28 |
| CombuderBob | By the way, I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around permissions in general. When we talk about others in Linux does that mean other users on the computer/network if shared or more towards other applications not run from my user? Actually, more like: Know any good guides? | 08:30 |
| lotuspsychje | !chmod | CombuderBob | 08:30 |
| ubottu | CombuderBob: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 08:30 |
| CombuderBob | Nice! | 08:30 |
| CombuderBob | Ok, I think I've got it now. I've done it before but only following guides without actually understanding what I've done. I've composed a string of commands, could you verify or point out errors please? :) | 08:44 |
| CombuderBob | sudo mkdir /mnt/Files -> sudo chown bob /mnt/Files -> chmod u=rxw /mnt/Files -> chmod o-rwx /mnt/Files | 08:44 |
| Ben64 | CombuderBob: why not just chmod 750 /mnt/Files | 08:47 |
| CombuderBob | Ben64: Because I followed the guides example of using letters instead of numbers. ^^ Basically I'd like to verify that my example would do the same so I know I actually understand what I'm doing and not rely on irc support or internet searches. :) | 08:50 |

| isky897 | chkdsk? | 09:16 |
| elias_a | Is it possible to change the default save location of print to file in 16.04? | 09:16 |
| alkisg | isky897: what's the output of this command? sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 | 09:16 |
| Serdar | there is no such a tool like chkdsk | 09:16 |
| isky897 | @alkisg I dont have aterminal in installation mode | 09:16 |
| garybot | chkdsk is a windows tool | 09:16 |
| isky897 | @garybot I tried to do that on bios and it seems ok | 09:17 |
| alkisg | isky897: press alt+ctrl+f1 to switch to text mode, then run the command, then alt+ctrl+f7 to swtich back to graphiccs mode | 09:17 |
| elias_a | Print to (pdf) file does not seem to remember the last folder the file was saved into. | 09:17 |
| isky897 | garybot I know, but not sure which fs he has, e2fschk I think is the think. | 09:17 |
| Serdar | should I use wine or what_ | 09:17 |
| isky897 | thing | 09:17 |
| isky897 | not, use a tool for linux sure, but check the disk | 09:18 |
| garybot | oh.. well boot in legacy mode that should solve your problem.. | 09:18 |
| garybot | your trying to dual boot ubuntu and windows i guess.. | 09:18 |
| isky897 | mabe the partition table is problem, you could put a another one, but i dont know what you did to the disk before | 09:18 |
| alkisg | mahakal: yes, ext4 file systems have permissions, so if you want any user to be able to write to it, either mount it with different permissions, or use another file system | 09:18 |
| isky897 | @garybot at some point in the future but not now | 09:18 |
| isky897 | the installation also let me choose a password for secure boot | 09:19 |

| mahakal | alkisg: i have change the owner from root to me many times using sudo chown ..but whenever i reinsert it the owner is set to root agains | 09:20 |
| alkisg | mahakal: how do you set the owner to you? Also, "guest" is not "you", it's another user. | 09:20 |
| mahakal | alkisg: first i use "sudo chown mahakal:mahakal /dev/sde" then i use "sudo chmod 777 /dev/sde" | 09:22 |
| alkisg | mahakal: you're changing the block device, while what you want is to change the permissions of a folder | 09:22 |
| mahakal | And guest is "other" ..it should allow other to read write execute | 09:22 |
| Serdar | I am here on a bood usb and need to check the disk, where NTFS was used, so e2fsck can't be used here :( | 09:22 |
| alkisg | mahakal: try this: (1) insert stick, let's say it mounts to /media/username/usbstick (2) sudo mkdir /media/username/usbstick/my-folder (3) sudo chmod 777 /media/username/usbstick/my-folder | 09:23 |
| MonkeyDust | isky897 you can drop the @ ... simply type two characters of the name, then hit tab | 09:23 |
| alkisg | mahakal: then everyone will be able to write to that folder. But of course *not* to all the stick, but just to that folder. | 09:23 |
| isky897 | MonkeyDust: got it thx | 09:23 |
| mahakal | alkisg: ok i will try this and come back..thanks | 09:24 |
| alkisg | np | 09:24 |
| mahakal | alkisg: but isnt there any way to give 777 permission to the usb stick itself | 09:25 |
| mahakal | because i need to use it on my college computers a lot | 09:25 |
| thibaultmol | There is a problem with the drivers for the gtx 10 series GPU's from nvidia which makes it so that install ubuntu is a pain in the *ss for new users. When are they planning on fixing that in the kernel? | 09:25 |
| thibaultmol | http://askubuntu.com/questions/795547/ubuntu-16-04-unable-to-boot-with-gtx-1080 | 09:25 |
| alkisg | mahakal: you can put it to /etc/fstab, or you can specify udev rules for it. The default mounts options for usb sticks are not changed with chmod or chown. | 09:26 |
| alkisg | mahakal: then use vfat or ntfs, not ext4 | 09:26 |
| mahakal | alkisg: before i changed it ..it was using fat32 file system | 09:27 |
| alkisg | Format it back to fat32 then, it appears that's what suits you better | 09:27 |
| alkisg | Serdar: if `parted -l` and `fdisk` show 8 mb *disk*, then no file system check will do you any good | 09:27 |
| tatertots | thibaultmol: you are chatting from a computer with a gtx 10xx in it right now? | 09:28 |
| thibaultmol | tatertots: I'm on my windows 10 install right now | 09:28 |
| mahakal | alkisg: ok ,actually i am learning grub and what i want to learn is "Making a multiboot usb",will you suggest any resources to learn this..the internet has information but in very scattered way | 09:29 |
| thibaultmol | it's an easy fix, but for people who are new to ubuntu and want to try it out, they're going to give up easily if they can't even get passed the installer | 09:29 |
| alkisg | mahakal: use some of the existing tools like rufus or easy2boot etc, those will tell you to use fat or ntfs32 | 09:30 |
| alkisg | *fat or ntfs | 09:30 |
| mahakal | alkisg: however is it possible to make a multiboot usb ? | 09:30 |
| alkisg | mahakal: yes, i have one with 10 distros live cds and windows and a linux installation | 09:32 |
| MonkeyDust | mahakal https://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ | 09:32 |
| mahakal | alkisg: you are awesome .I wanna do that ,if you write any personal blog..please please please tell me that | 09:33 |
| mahakal | MonkeyDust: very thanks | 09:33 |
| mahakal | alkisg: i have formatted the pd to fat32 using gparted but which flag to set now ? | 09:34 |
| alkisg | mahakal: I'm not going to write a how-to in irc... use one of the tools, they'll format the stick for you | 09:35 |
| mahakal | alkisg: i know that thats why i asked about blog ..LOL | 09:36 |
| mahakal | alkisg: which flag to set or unset all ? | 09:36 |
| alkisg | No, I haven't written a blog about how to make a multiboot stick | 09:36 |
| alkisg | mahakal: don't format it, use a tool | 09:37 |
| alkisg | They will ask you things like "what os do you want?" and set the proper flags for it | 09:37 |
| isky897 | alkisg: my partition table is ok, I put everything there, I have some experience with linux, not with ufi and secure boot | 09:38 |
| mahakal | alkisg: currently i want to use usb for general stuff like movies,text.pics etc | 09:38 |
| alkisg | mahakal: then no flags are needed | 09:38 |
| alkisg | isky897: from your partitions we'll be able to see if your system is using uefi or not | 09:39 |
| ducasse | isky897: what does 'ls /sys/firmware/efi' say? | 09:40 |
| isky897 | the installation requested a EFI partition table at some point, so I am creating one every attempt, but else what would point to UFI? | 09:40 |
| alkisg | ducasse: he's booted in uefi mode from the live cd, but the question is if his hard disk was using uefi or not | 09:40 |
| ducasse | alkisg: ok | 09:41 |
| alkisg | isky897: does the disk have any data in it, or not? | 09:41 |
| isky897 | or brand new | 09:41 |
| alkisg | If not, you can just reformat it in gpt mode, and be done with it | 09:41 |
| isky897 | no | 09:41 |
| isky897 | gpt mode? | 09:42 |
| alkisg | It's the partition table for uefi systems | 09:42 |
| isky897 | i boot from usb, in legacy mode apparently | 09:42 |
| alkisg | Didn't you say that the installer reported that you are in uefi mode? | 09:42 |
| isky897 | i deleted my secure key from bios, so maybe it will work now | 09:42 |
| alkisg | And that your disk was in legacy mode? | 09:43 |
| mahakal | alkisg: is there any book on linux booting that touch every details,dangers,best practice for linux booting stuff | 09:43 |
| alkisg | mahakal: I don't know | 09:44 |
| alkisg | isky897: you reported this message: "This machines's firmware has started this installer in UEFI mode but it looks like there maybe existing operating systems already installed using BIOS compatibility mode, If you continue to install Debian in UEFI mode,it might be difficult to reboot into any BIOS-mode operating system." | 09:44 |
| alkisg | That sounds like you booted in uefi mode and your disk is mbr | 09:44 |
| isky897 | ok | 09:45 |

| david__ | alkisg i have ubuntu mate installed with mate desktop but i want to instal KDE | 10:53 |

| tarball | bekks, and how can he do so? and why is it enough reason for that format to appear in a FOSS system? | 13:32 |

| eightfold | and when i disconnect the external monitor, the panels do not come back om my laptop display | 13:49 |
| Guest40666 | because you need all monitors to be as same resoulution | 13:49 |
| eightfold | Guest40666: well, that is exactly the kind of desktop environment retardation i'm talking about :) | 13:50 |
| mernilio | Greetings fellow linux friends! :) | 13:50 |
| tarball | windowsization of ubuntu underway | 13:50 |
| ouroumov_ | elias_a, huh, Ubuntu MATE is an official derivative, therefore it is within the scope of support. | 13:50 |
| mernilio | I said hi FELLOW LINUX FRIENDS! | 13:51 |
| ouroumov_ | Guest40666, no you don't. | 13:51 |
| elias_a | ouroumov_: It has been repeated on this channel again and again that Mate is not supported on this channel. | 13:51 |
| tarball | mernilio, dream on | 13:51 |
| MonkeyDust | mernilio hi, this is the ubuntu support channel, ask you ubuntu question | 13:51 |
| mernilio | you can answer me! .. | 13:51 |
| ouroumov_ | elias_a, so what, the topic is lying? | 13:51 |
| mernilio | Hi MoneyDust | 13:52 |
| mernilio | Dont underestimate my power! | 13:52 |
| mernilio | of talking with capitals! :-P | 13:52 |
| elias_a | ouroumov_: Perhaps I have got it all wrong. Thanks for correcting! | 13:53 |
| mernilio | im a kick ass dude also .. beside that! :-) | 13:53 |
| MonkeyDust | mernilio stop | 13:53 |
| elias_a | ouroumov_: I have thought Mate is not an official derivative... | 13:54 |
| ouroumov_ | elias_a, you're correct that say, if someone installs debian, then MATE on top of it, it's not supported. But Ubuntu MATE is an official derivative since release 15.04 I think. | 13:54 |
| mernilio | I cant stop being a numero uno guy? Thats what i am! | 13:54 |
| ouroumov_ | eightfold, maybe try and use xrandr to manually set up your displays. | 13:55 |
| elias_a | ouroumov_: Oh - it is such a new thing... no wonder I had wrong impression about that. :) | 13:55 |
| eightfold | ouroumov_: but what happens if i disconnect the external display from the laptop then? do i have to edit that file again? | 13:56 |
| elias_a | eightfold: What is your display setup like? | 13:56 |
| ouroumov_ | eightfold, I'm not sure. I've used Ubuntu MATE with multiple displays (up to 3) and I've never had this kind of problems. | 13:57 |
| mernilio | MoneyDad ... in scandinavian mythology Magnus is the god of arms ... you can give your son that name. | 13:57 |
| elias_a | eightfold: Laptop display + the display you talked about? | 13:57 |
| Guest40666 | i installed kde plasma desktop and i dont have buttons to close minimize and maximize and title bar how to fix that? | 13:58 |

| Lilpenguin | I'm trying to ssh through a router to to my machine at home | 14:08 |
| Lilpenguin | doing some virtual cloud stuff | 14:08 |
| bekks | Lilpenguin: Did you setup your router accordingly? | 14:09 |
| Lilpenguin | but I'm on my neighbors wifi which he has allowed | 14:09 |
| Lilpenguin | no I have not since it is my niehbors | 14:09 |
| Lilpenguin | Do I have to set up forewarding on the actual router? | 14:09 |
| bekks | Lilpenguin: So you have a router and a network at home, and your neighbour does. Correct? | 14:09 |
| llutz | Lilpenguin: you could establish a reverse ssh-tunnel from your machine at home to the remote site. needs you being at home, once | 14:09 |
| Lilpenguin | My niehbor owns the router | 14:10 |
| Lilpenguin | I cannot really ask him to open the ports | 14:10 |
| Lilpenguin | I would like 5901 and 22 | 14:10 |
| Lilpenguin | for vnc and ssh | 14:10 |
| Lilpenguin | Reverse tunnel? | 14:11 |
| Lilpenguin | llutz what does this entail? | 14:12 |
| llutz | Lilpenguin: yes, that establishes a connection from your home-machine to your remote-host, which can be used t the way back. Needed if you cannot reach home-machine from WAN | 14:12 |
| Lilpenguin | I need to establish a vnc session to the server which is at home | 14:12 |

| Lilpenguin | Ya, but I have that, but the cloud is on the bigger desktop | 14:14 |
| Lilpenguin | cloud will be on | 14:14 |

| ducasse | jester_: ubuntu has a proper security team and takes it seriously, all these derivatives usually only use ubuntu's security patches | 15:54 |

| gulzar | RalphBa: ok this I can tell him, hope he know his router login/adr | 16:10 |
| RalphBa | gulzar, lets assume his network ist 192.168.0.0 then the router might be 192.168.0.1 | 16:10 |

| RalphBa | elias_a, it is just stupid. but after what I experienced with the usual it guys, theres nothing else to expect | 16:17 |
| gulzar | RalphBa: will try and see | 16:17 |
| gulzar | RalphBa: thank you | 16:17 |
| RalphBa | gulzar, ok, much luck (depending on the internet service provider he may also have no public ip, in that case it gets complicated involving calling that guys) | 16:18 |
| RalphBa | gulzar, so if you get further problems check for https://www.iplocation.net/public-vs-private-ip-address | 16:19 |
| gulzar | RalphBa: ok | 16:22 |
| gulzar | RalphBa: thank you | 16:22 |
| RalphBa | gulzar, welcome | 16:22 |
| gulzar | bazhang: Hello, long long time. Years . How are you? | 16:23 |
| elias_a | RalphBa: Nice support attitude you've got. Kudos! | 16:24 |
| RalphBa | elias_a, ? | 16:24 |
| elias_a | RalphBa: Trying be polite here. :) | 16:24 |
| RalphBa | elias_a, ahh, thanks | 16:24 |
| et09 | 2017 - nvidia or amd? | 16:24 |
| RalphBa | elias_a, not often but if I think once I try my best | 16:24 |
| gulzar | RalphBa: almost 6yr ago I was ubuntu fan, got bad feeling from this channel. Switched to fedora and its irc was worst. Then on Arch and the people were best there. After so many years this level of support feels good | 16:25 |
| elias_a | gulzar: That's why I'm hanging here. :) | 16:26 |
| et09 | gulzar: ditto, but my main prob was the repos | 16:26 |
| et09 | arch/ubuntu split right now | 16:26 |
| RalphBa | gulzar, I fear you cannot nail this to a distro. it depends on the people | 16:27 |
| gulzar | et09: I like the CUDA/nvidia support on ubuntu. Never able to configure nvidia on arch. | 16:28 |
| gulzar | RalphBa: yes to people, not the distro. | 16:28 |
| et09 | it's a little harder | 16:28 |
| gulzar | RalphBa: ubuntu is bes for newbies. and my only recommendation to all people want to try linux | 16:28 |
| RalphBa | hmm... its about gpus here? OFFTOPIC: do anyone know the best FP64 performance for good price? | 16:29 |
| et09 | although usually on ubuntu i think i end up doing it from the .run files nvidia gives you, and ditching the ubuntu packages | 16:29 |
| ghighiri | ciao | 16:29 |
| faLUCE | Hello, I don't want to be polemic with my question, because I'm very grateful to all the Ubuntu's team over the years, but.... what did it happen in the last two years?? The last distros are too much unstable and full of bugs. Why? Is the ubuntu project going to be dismissed? | 16:29 |
| RalphBa | most gpus are tied to good FP32 performance, for simulations thats trash | 16:29 |
| ghighiri | !list | 16:29 |

| gulzar | faLUCE: bugs, maybe ubuntu is doing lots of experimentation with one distro all platform | 16:30 |
| faLUCE | gulzar: but I did not experienced so many bugs in the past... | 16:31 |
| faLUCE | now I'm forced to change the distro | 16:31 |
| gulzar | faLUCE: debian? | 16:31 |
| OerHeks | faLUCE, give exact examples? this sounds more like a flamewar | 16:31 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: networking, graphics | 16:31 |
| gulzar | faLUCE: networking is much better on ubntu I think, lots of support, lots of contributers | 16:32 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: for example, I had kernel panics with a usb dongle, the internal wifi nic doesn't work properly and the screen flickers | 16:32 |
| h1n1 | hello my ubuntu is intact, and i change much my distribuition. | 16:32 |
| OerHeks | faLUCE, and those do not happen in other distros ? you well know usb wifi devices do not all have optimal drivers. | 16:32 |
| gulzar | faLUCE: kernel panicks, I only got them on fedora 16 untable beta. or while messing with KVM | 16:33 |
| faLUCE | anyway, I don't want to make a flamewar. I just wonder what is the status of the project | 16:33 |
| gulzar | faLUCE: its going good, backed by a millionare | 16:33 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: but I use ubuntu since some years, and never had so many problems | 16:33 |
| === RalphBa is now known as RalphBa|Away | ||
| gulzar | I wish I can have HUD on arch | 16:33 |
| faLUCE | ok, I had to tune many things (which is normal in linux), but never had so big problems with networking, graphics etc. | 16:34 |
| OerHeks | faLUCE, so what distro runs RTL8188CUS fine? | 16:34 |
| gulzar | faLUCE: happens sometimes, last month after Arch udpate X stopeed working, have to revert and wait for a weak | 16:35 |
| OerHeks | don't blame the ubuntu project on 1 piece of flaky hardware | 16:35 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: in fact I don't know. I only know that in the past I had no problems with wifi. I'm not BLAMING ubuntu project, I only wander what is the reason for that | 16:35 |
| gulzar | faLUCE: stick with LTS? | 16:35 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: with graphic card I had many problems too | 16:35 |
| faLUCE | <gulzar> faLUCE: stick with LTS? <-- what do you mean? | 16:36 |
| gulzar | so what are you using now? | 16:36 |
| faLUCE | gulzar: I use 6.10 with 4.0.22 kernel | 16:36 |
| gulzar | faLUCE: LTS-> long term support AKA LTE versions | 16:36 |
| gulzar | faLUCE: that's what I put on people who wants ubntu only for work and no hassle during updates | 16:37 |
| faLUCE | gulzar: do you mean that I should use LTS? | 16:37 |
| gulzar | faLUCE: if so many problems with new OS, stick with LTS | 16:38 |
| faLUCE | gulzar: which release? | 16:38 |
| OerHeks | faLUCE, time to do updating, 16.10 comes with 4.8 | 16:39 |
| faLUCE | 6.04 ? | 16:39 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: do you mean 4.8 kernel? | 16:39 |
| gulzar | try upgrade complete system also | 16:39 |
| h1n1 | install package .deb from dpkg. good luck for you. my Ubuntu have interface LXDE and app of the Kali. | 16:40 |
| gulzar | i3 here | 16:40 |
| OerHeks | faLUCE, what do you not understand? | 16:40 |
| bekks | h1n1: So you are using Kali? | 16:40 |
| faLUCE | gulzar: I'm a bit frightened before doing a complete upgrade... I'll do that only in desperationg, when I can't get out of networking problems | 16:40 |
| bekks | HWE ships Kernel 4.8.0 for 16.04 as well. | 16:41 |
| MonkeyDust | h1n1 what's the output of cat /etc/issue | 16:41 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: faLUCE, time to do updating, 16.10 comes with 4.8 <--- do you mean 4.8 kernel? | 16:41 |
| faLUCE | Ok | 16:41 |
| gulzar | yes | 16:41 |
| faLUCE | I downloaded 3 days ago 16.10 and I got 4.0.39 + 4.0.22 kernels | 16:41 |
| bekks | OerHeks: faLUCE: on 16.04: sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-16.04 | 16:42 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: but my first thought is: what is the status or RTL8188CUS on 4.8 kernel? | 16:42 |
| onicrom | hi all, ubuntu 12.04 here... just updated my kernel and it seems the header/src files are missing. files in /usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-109-generic point to ../linux-lts-trusty-headers-3.13.0-109/sound BUT that trusty-headers dir doesnt exist! this seems to be the only version that is missing the linux-headers-3.13.0-109 (non-generic) src dir | 16:42 |

| OerHeks | faLUCE, explain this? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YakketyYak/ReleaseNotes#Linux_kernel_4.8 | 16:43 |
| MonkeyDust | onicrom tip: instead of struggling with 12.04, better upgrade ... 12.04 will be !eol in a few weeks from now | 16:43 |
| bekks | onicrom: Isnt it time to update soon, since 12.04 is quite old - but still supported. | 16:43 |
| onicrom | MonkeyDust: thats not very helpful | 16:43 |
| onicrom | it is still supported | 16:44 |
| onicrom | we are upgrading | 16:44 |
| onicrom | but not now | 16:44 |
| onicrom | and i need this resolved i cant just upgrade a prod system because of this | 16:44 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: I simply downloaded the image from Lubuntu website, and the provided kernel was 4.0.22 + 4.0.39 | 16:44 |
| faLUCE | maybe the problem is L-ubuntu | 16:44 |
| bekks | faLUCE: And now just run the command given. | 16:44 |
| bekks | faLUCE: Lubuntu uses the same packages as Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc. | 16:45 |
| faLUCE | bekks: you gave a command for 16.04 | 16:45 |
| bekks | faLUCE: I did. | 16:45 |
| faLUCE | I'm using 16.10 | 16:45 |
| bekks | faLUCE: And the command is almost the same for 16.10, just search for the linux image hwe package. | 16:45 |
| user_32 | this is BR for here | 16:45 |
| faLUCE | bekks: ok, but I still wonder: what is the status or RTL8188CUS on 4.8 kernel? | 16:46 |
| faLUCE | *OF | 16:47 |
| bekks | faLUCE: Take a look at the official kernel changelog for 4.8 | 16:47 |
| faLUCE | bekks: ok | 16:47 |
| OerHeks | status of that 8188cus is the same crappy driver as a year ago, not a kernel issue. | 16:48 |
| bekks | I second OerHeks. | 16:48 |
| OerHeks | and you have kernel 4.8, else you did something yourself.. | 16:48 |

| OerHeks | So, what is the status of Ubuntu Project? | 16:49 |
| faLUCE | OerHeks: then, on windows there are same issues with the same NIC? | 16:49 |
| faLUCE | or similar issues? | 16:49 |
| bekks | faLUCE: The chipset stays crappy, yes. | 16:49 |
| OerHeks | nice try, i'll ignore you now. | 16:50 |
| faLUCE | I'm not polemic, I'm trying to understand | 16:50 |
| bekks | faLUCE: Windows is irrelevant for this channel. | 16:50 |
| faLUCE | because it appears strange to me that a network card has so many issues. | 16:50 |
| bekks | faLUCE: It is a RTL chipset. They are crappy for decades, which is a well known "feature". | 16:51 |
| ducasse | faLUCE: that chipset should not be used for anything relating to computing. | 16:51 |
| faLUCE | it could be easily what you say, but I want to understand better | 16:51 |
| faLUCE | bekks: ducasse but it seems that it's quite common | 16:51 |
| bekks | faLUCE: And its still crappy. | 16:52 |
| ducasse | i wanted to use a stronger word, but yes. | 16:52 |
| ducasse | faLUCE: the reason it is common is that it is cheap. a lot of people buy cheap stuff, with no thought about quality. | 16:56 |

| nvdrivers | hey all, i have run into a bit of trouble, looks like my nvidia driver modules are not properly installing | 17:43 |
| bekks | Why not? And how do you install them? | 17:43 |
| nvdrivers | first ran into an issue after trying to install the latest cuda package from nvidia, cuda-repo-ubuntu1604-8-0-local-ga2_8.0.61-1_amd64.deb | 17:43 |
| nvdrivers | which wanted to install nvidia-375 | 17:43 |
| nvdrivers | i was on nvidia-367.15 | 17:44 |
| nvdrivers | ive tried to purge and reinstall, but after reboot i get "NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with NVIDIA driver. Make sure that latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running." | 17:44 |
| OerHeks | nvdrivers, don't use the cuda package from nvidia, told you hours ago. upgrade to 16.10 for cuda 8 | 17:44 |
| bekks | And is it installed and running? | 17:44 |
| bekks | Ah. | 17:44 |
| nvdrivers | OerHeks: yes, I have removed this package though, im trying to install the old drivers | 17:45 |
| nvdrivers | i will upgrade to 16.10 | 17:45 |
| nvdrivers | but as it stands i fear that will bring more problems, and possibly not fix this issue | 17:45 |
| nvdrivers | i'd rather do a fresh install of 16.10 | 17:45 |
| nvdrivers | right now i need cuda and the drivers working, as something needs delivered at work | 17:46 |
| nvdrivers | http://guanghan.info/blog/en/my-works/building-our-personal-deep-learning-rig-gtx-1080-ubuntu-16-04-cuda-8-0rc-cudnn-7-tensorflowmxnetcaffedarknet/ | 17:46 |
| nvdrivers | i followed these steps for the original setup | 17:47 |
| nvdrivers | or these https://yangcha.github.io/GTX-1080/ | 17:47 |
| nvdrivers | which used nvidia cuda_8.0.27_linux.run for cuda, but drivers were from ppa | 17:48 |
| nvdrivers | that worked fine | 17:48 |
| pavlos | nvdrivers, I was able to install cuda 8 on 16.04 (d/l the deb file from nvidia site, apt update, then apt install cuda, took long time but all went ok | 17:48 |
| nvdrivers | pavlos: that's what i did | 17:48 |
| nvdrivers | download deb, dpkg -i ubuntu1604-8-0-local-ga2_8.0.61-1_amd64.deb | 17:49 |
| nvdrivers | but then it wanted to update the driver | 17:49 |
| nvdrivers | after that ive been unable to load any nvidia driver | 17:49 |
| pavlos | nvdrivers, I dont have the gtx-1080, I have a 550Ti, I can look up which driver is using | 17:50 |
| nvdrivers | it doesn't have anything to do with the card | 17:50 |
| nvdrivers | it looks like the module isn't even being loaded | 17:51 |
| nvdrivers | or installed properly | 17:51 |
| OerHeks | so with 16.04 without kernel 4.8 and your cuda8 you will miss essential kernel hooks. | 17:51 |
| pavlos | nvdrivers, mine uses 375.26 | 17:52 |
| nvdrivers | OerHeks: it worked fine before | 17:52 |
| nvdrivers | has cuda changed requiring hooks that are not available in 4.4 | 17:52 |
| nvdrivers | since 8.0.27 | 17:52 |
| nvdrivers | between there and the current 8.0.61 | 17:53 |
| nvdrivers | which afaik isn't available from ppa, only 8.0.44 | 17:53 |
| nvdrivers | in short, i want to try diagnose and fix the problem, deliver this stuff to boss... then re-provision the machine with 16.10 | 17:54 |
| nvdrivers | all i can seem to load is "nvidiafb" there's no other loadable nvidia kernel module | 17:54 |
| nvdrivers | did that pastebin work? | 17:55 |
| OerHeks | nvdrivers, i guess you understand your support issue is invalid. | 17:55 |
| nvdrivers | find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) -type f -name \*.ko | grep nvidia | 17:56 |
| nvdrivers | im just trying to track down what is blocking "apt install nvidia-367" from working | 17:56 |
| nvdrivers | those drivers were working fine | 17:56 |
| nvdrivers | and i cant seem to find anything in the logs, there are no errors or warnings | 17:56 |

| nvdrivers | i have that same problem at home, it has killed my battery also | 18:17 |
| bonfire | It's a samsung with dual graphics (intel and ATI) | 18:18 |
| nvdrivers | got a new one, wasn't long before it has no capacity to hold charge | 18:18 |
| bonfire | The CPU sits at 92 Celsius idle after about 15 minutes. | 18:18 |
| bekks | Maybe clean the fans? | 18:19 |
| nvdrivers | pavlos: ok looks like installing headers fixed the issue | 18:19 |
| nvdrivers | it's a bit strange that there's no error about it! | 18:20 |
| bonfire | bekks, windows does not have the same issue. | 18:20 |
| nvdrivers | kind of useless | 18:20 |
| bonfire | nvdrivers, have you experience with bumblebee? I'm just not sure where to begin | 18:21 |
| conan | hello!!! | 18:21 |
| nvdrivers | bonfire: i use nvidia-prime | 18:22 |
| nvdrivers | but even then it's still hot | 18:22 |
| nvdrivers | fan runs louder | 18:22 |
| nvdrivers | it's really disappointing | 18:22 |
| bonfire | I read somewhere that it may be the GPU running at full bore, but the laptop is configured to use the onboard Intel chipset | 18:22 |
| nvdrivers | yeah even when it switch to intel, still hot | 18:23 |
| nvdrivers | there's stuff about clock stepping, etc. | 18:23 |
| nvdrivers | sadly running windows on the laptop kept the temps and battery drain at healthy levels | 18:24 |
| asdf_ | hi guys I have a problem | 18:26 |

| asdf_ | Guys I accidentally deleted my /var/www/html can somebody give me theirs? or give a solution to backup or restore the file? | 18:28 |
| bekks | asdf_: Restore is possible only if you created a backup before. | 18:28 |
| bekks | asdf_: By default, that directory only contains a index.html - I doubts thats your actual issue. | 18:29 |
| asdf_ | yes thats my issue | 18:29 |

| tomreyn | asdf_: which webserver do you have installed? | 18:30 |
| k1l_ | asdf_: its your web stuff. that dosnt work with files from someone else | 18:30 |
| asdf_ | aww, is there a way to create new file | 18:30 |
| asdf_ | RE: tomreyn I have apache2 | 18:30 |
| tomreyn | if it's apache, the index.html file is robably part of the apache2-common package | 18:31 |
| k1l_ | asdf_: just open a texteditor and put the stuff in you want and save the file there | 18:31 |
| k1l_ | asdf_: that really depends what on what you want or had there | 18:31 |
| OerHeks | reinstall apache, done. | 18:31 |
| asdf_ | What I really want to do is to search for localhost and use DVWA (damn vulnerable web application) and test sql injection but the web page says 404 not found and The requested URL / was not found on this server. Apache/2.4.25 (Debian) Server at localhost Port 80 | 18:32 |
| asdf_ | But I guess that it does not work because I removed my /var/www/html | 18:32 |
| OerHeks | you .. hacked yourself? | 18:33 |
| asdf_ | nope :p | 18:33 |
| nvdrivers | OerHeks: seems just installing the linux headers has resolved the problem completely, and that cuda package is playing fine | 18:33 |

| amazoniantoad | I suddenly cannot see 5ghz wireless networks but can still see 2.4ghz. Can someone help me figure out what happened and how to fix this? | 18:36 |
| asdf_ | Ok thanks. That worked but now, however I want to access the DVWA by searching localhost but it does not show it | 18:37 |
| k1l_ | asdf_: you need to reinstall that stuff | 18:37 |
| asdf_ | What stuff? | 18:37 |
| k1l_ | because you deleted all of it | 18:37 |
| k1l_ | asdf_: you delete all your websites and stuff that is supposed to work with apache. | 18:39 |
| asdf_ | k1l_: ok then. how can I reinstall them | 18:40 |
| MonkeyDust | asdf_ you don't install websites, you create them | 18:41 |
| asdf_ | MonkeyDust: I want to use DVWA but it does not load | 18:42 |
| bekks | asdf_: What is "DVWA"? | 18:42 |
| asdf_ | MonkeyDust: it is Damn Vulnerable Web Application used to test sql injections etc. | 18:42 |
| pavlos | asdf_, sudo apt install apache2, test with http://localhost/ | 18:42 |
| bekks | asdf_: Yuou need to install and configure it as the docs of DVWA tell you. | 18:43 |
| k1l_ | asdf_: asak them how to install and setup their software | 18:43 |
| MonkeyDust | ddg finds a few DVWA tutorials | 18:46 |
| bekks | Not even a need for asking, their README.md shipped in their download provides a link for an install video. You just need to read... | 18:46 |

| pavlos | amazoniantoad, is your network card dual band? | 18:52 |
| Jonii | Hello. I installed Ubuntu with more or less default settings, and unfortunately I ended up with Swap | 18:56 |
| Jonii | Now I need to figure out a way to disable it | 18:56 |
| k1l_ | Jonii: comment it in the fstab | 18:56 |
| Jonii | Okay. Now, just to be safe, can I check what applications are being put into swap? | 18:57 |
| Jonii | Like, worst case scenario is that they'd crash if memory runs out, no? | 18:57 |
| tgm4883 | Jonii: you'd have to reboot after doing the fstab change | 18:57 |
| k1l_ | Jonii: that will take effect after reboot | 18:58 |
| OerHeks | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#Why_do_I_need_swap.3F | 18:58 |
| k1l_ | but if you use swap now, that means it will kill programs next boot if you run out of memory | 18:58 |
| tgm4883 | Jonii: how much ram do you have? | 18:59 |
| Jonii | 8gb | 18:59 |
| Jonii | Browsers and office programs for whatever reason keep taking about 5gb of it | 19:00 |
| k1l_ | well, memory is there to be used. | 19:00 |
| Jonii | I wouldn't really mind browsers rather crashing on me than just there not being swap, but I'd want to make sure it's just browsers that crash | 19:00 |
| Jonii | The problem is, I do game every once in a while | 19:01 |
| tgm4883 | Jonii: I wouldn't disable swap | 19:01 |
| Jonii | And unless I do with freshly rebooted machine, game ends up being slowed down by swap shenanigans | 19:01 |
| Jonii | And you can't seem to get rid of that problem without rebooting the entire machine | 19:01 |

| roshan | qualcomm autherous | 19:22 |
| roshan | eternal-pain: qualcomm autherous | 19:22 |
| eternal-pain | roshan, depending on the chipset you need a specific driver for that. what is the output of "lspci | grep -i network" ? | 19:24 |
| roshan | eternal-pain: give me 2 minutes. I'll back eith output | 19:25 |
| roshan | eternal-pain: The output is: 02:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros Device 0042 (rev 30) | 19:27 |
| roshan | eternal-pain: any solution ? | 19:30 |
| eternal-pain | roshan, i just had to search for the package, as i never had an atheros card. seems to work if you just install the driver automatically with jockey | 19:31 |
| roshan | NatureShade: can you please help me to find wifi driver for Qualcomm Atheros Device 0042 | 19:31 |

| OerHeks | eternal-pain +1 ---> second last post: driver is included by default in 16.04 | 19:35 |
| roshan | eternal-pain: I am getting vendor, modalias, driver and driver inthe list | 19:36 |
| roshan | eternal-pain: and vendor is NVIDIA Corporation | 19:36 |
| eternal-pain | roshan, if it shows you the wifi card, you need the additional driver. you can install it either directly by the package name with "apt install <package>" or automatically with jockey by typing "ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" | 19:37 |
| eternal-pain | the nvidia hardware is most likely your graphics card | 19:38 |
| roshan | eternal-pain: nope its showing only NVIDIA card | 19:38 |
| eternal-pain | then the driver should already be installed | 19:38 |
| eternal-pain | what does "iwconfig" say? | 19:38 |
| lord-ragnarock | How do I simply download a kernel with apt-get? I did 'sudo apt-get install linux-powerpc-smp' and the new kernel is nowhere to be found in my /boot folder | 19:47 |
| bekks | lord-ragnarock: powerpc doesnt use /boot IIRC. | 19:47 |
| lord-ragnarock | Ohhhh | 19:47 |
| lord-ragnarock | I'm asking cause I use an app called BootX from Mac OS, which requires I copy a kernel and initrd over from the Linux drive | 19:48 |
| lord-ragnarock | I currently use 3.2 and would like to experiment with... I think it's 3.16 now? | 19:48 |
| bekks | lord-ragnarock: So take a look at the package content, and you will see where the files are being placed. | 19:48 |
| bekks | lord-ragnarock: Current kernel is 4.8 :) | 19:49 |
| Jonii | Can you add widgets or the like to unity desktop? | 19:49 |
| lord-ragnarock | Can you actually compile that for ppc? :) | 19:49 |

| A_Legit_Cookie | the Ubuntu MATE config | 19:57 |
| OerHeks | lord-ragnarock, those options disable DKMS | 19:58 |
| A_Legit_Cookie | is it bad that my Ubuntu MATE config is empty | 19:58 |

| A_Legit_Cookie | through the welcome window | 20:01 |
| A_Legit_Cookie | that appears when you boot up ubuntu | 20:01 |

| alkisg | gl | 20:38 |
| nvdrivers | not sure how x11vnc worked, although it seemed to be just forwarding the lightdm framebuffer | 20:38 |
| nvdrivers | tigervnc also got me to the lightdm greeter | 20:38 |
| alkisg | It might be workable for VMs, but e.g. not over the network, so it's nothing like unity 2d | 20:38 |

| bekks | nvdrivers: Insecure. a mess when setting up, a mess when using it. | 20:55 |
| nvdrivers | what alternatives are there? | 20:55 |
| nvdrivers | this is on a private network so security is not a huge issue | 20:56 |
| bekks | nvdrivers: x2go, as you've already been told. | 20:56 |
| nvdrivers | i have been? sorry | 20:56 |
| nvdrivers | huge apologies, did not see that | 20:56 |
| nvdrivers | that can be used with ubuntu desktop? | 20:57 |
| pavlos | nvdrivers, I use nomachine for remote desktops | 20:57 |
| thermos | bashing-om: how does one do that? | 20:57 |
| nvdrivers | pavlos okay, thanks | 20:57 |
| nvdrivers | x2go has a good windows client? | 20:58 |

| anddam | k1l_: ah ok, from old sysvinit thought the multi user was runlevel 3 or the like | 20:59 |
| anddam | so "standard" | 20:59 |
| OerHeks | nvdrivers, it is all there , http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php | 21:00 |
| anddam | k1l_: so I was wrong disabling lightdm unit | 21:01 |
| nvdrivers | thanks, i was there but hit a page where it wasn't so clear re windows | 21:01 |
| anddam | why the --force when enabling multi-user.target? | 21:01 |
| k1l_ | if you want only konsole login, yes | 21:01 |
| nvdrivers | let's give this a shot | 21:01 |
| k1l_ | no need to. | 21:01 |
| anddam | not konsole, I'd like no Xorg at all | 21:02 |
| anddam | but you didn't mean KDE's konsole, did you? | 21:02 |
| k1l_ | no, i didnt mean the kde program. | 21:03 |
| OerHeks | konsole/tty1/terminal | 21:03 |
| Bashing-om | anddam: Boot to terminal systemd ' systemd.unit=multi-user.target ' But then it is on you to enable any and all services that depend on the GUI that you need . | 21:03 |
| anddam | Bashing-om: sorry, I didn't quite understand what you just wrote | 21:04 |
| Bashing-om | Ya want to boot to terminal ( no GUI ) then ' systemd.unit=multi-user.target ' will do that . but many services will not be enabled . | 21:05 |
| masm | On Ubuntu 16.04, I can't play any .mp4 files or any video file in Firefox. Whenever I try to open one, I get this and nothing else happens: http://i.imgur.com/FvYex2Vl.jpg | 21:06 |
| masm | Can someone tell me on how to play a mp4 file in the browser? | 21:06 |
| anddam | Bashing-om: I don't get where shold I use ' systemd.unit=multi-user.target ' | 21:06 |
| masm | I would appreciate it greatly | 21:06 |
| anddam | is that a kernel parameter? | 21:06 |
| anddam | should* | 21:06 |
| masm | ofcourse youtube and vimeo work fine | 21:06 |
| k1l_ | anddam: yes. in the kernel line on grub | 21:06 |
| masm | but a direct video file link does not play | 21:06 |
| masm | k1l_, can you help? you must know something | 21:07 |
| OerHeks | masm, did you install restricted extras?? | 21:07 |
| masm | OerHeks: ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 21:07 |
| anddam | k1l_: ah ok, is it any different than using set-default with systemctl? | 21:07 |
| masm | OerHeks: yes i have installed that and the ones for xubuntu as well. still no solution | 21:07 |
| anddam | Bashing-om: ^ | 21:07 |
| k1l_ | no | 21:07 |
| Bashing-om | anddam: Oh . sorry .. boot to grub menu , 'e' key and edit the linux line . This what you have in mind ? | 21:07 |
| anddam | Bashing-om: I want a permanent setup, set-default seems just fine | 21:07 |
| anddam | it's a headless home computer | 21:08 |
| alkisg | masm: what's the output of `file /path/to/mp4` ? | 21:08 |
| masm | alkisg, literally that command or do i need to annex a mp4 file? | 21:08 |
| alkisg | Put the mp4 you're trying to play, there | 21:08 |
| OerHeks | masm, then what is in that mp4? mp4 is just a container. | 21:08 |
| masm | alkisg: i don't have the mp4 on my system | 21:09 |
| nvdrivers | hmm x2go wants to use plasma | 21:09 |
| masm | alkisg: firefox can't play them in the browser | 21:09 |
| nvdrivers | i was hoping it would work with unity | 21:09 |
| masm | alkisg: all mp4s work in vlc | 21:09 |
| nvdrivers | plasma did complain about opengl 2.0 | 21:09 |
| alkisg | masm: I just wanted to see if it's a supported codec; you could download it if it's not too big | 21:09 |
| masm | alkisg: the problem is that firefox can't play .mp4 files, vlc and everything play them finely | 21:10 |
| alkisg | They use different libgs | 21:10 |
| alkisg | *libs | 21:10 |
| alkisg | And my firefox can play my .mp4 files... | 21:10 |
| alkisg | So I wanted to see what codec is your mp4 using... | 21:10 |
| masm | alkisg: this problem isn't just about mp4 | 21:11 |
| masm | any video format does not play in firefox | 21:11 |
| masm | i have installed restricted-extras but still no solution, could quicktime fix it? | 21:11 |
| masm | please note that youtube and everything else works, its just that a direct link to some .mp4 or .avi does not work, firefox does not play it | 21:12 |
| A1Gard | Hi | 21:12 |
| alkisg | masm: so, `firefox /path/to/avi` doesn't work for you, right? | 21:13 |
| thermos | the MD5 sums are the same. | 21:13 |
| masm | alkisg, yes | 21:13 |
| alkisg | masm, do you have any videos shipped by ubuntu? locate ogv | grep ogv$ | grep /usr/share | 21:14 |
| masm | alkisg: actually there's something called browser-plugin-vlc, let me install it and see what happens | 21:15 |
| alkisg | The firefox support is embedded | 21:15 |
| alkisg | It doesn't need vlc or anything to play videos... | 21:15 |
| thermos | bashing-om: the checksum is good. | 21:17 |

| tehmal | OerHeks: 42gb/45gb of "/" -.- | 21:19 |
| masm | OK alkisg looks like you were wrong, a simple installation of browser-plugin-vlc now plays all video files in the browser | 21:19 |
| masm | i should have googled more | 21:19 |
| tehmal | i clear /var/logs and /temp but...not specialy help :> | 21:19 |
| thermos | does kvm work w/ windows? | 21:19 |
| OerHeks | tehmal, so you call it a vista virus, funny | 21:19 |
| A1Gard | hi every body i have question about publish software in ubuntu offical repom | 21:20 |
| alkisg | masm: nice, except that videos play fine here, and I don't have that plugin: $ dpkg -l browser-plugin-vlc dpkg-query: no packages found matching browser-plugin-vlc | 21:20 |
| A1Gard | can anyone help me? | 21:20 |
| riadh | hell | 21:20 |
| tehmal | OerHeks: yes, when im going to school at PCs was intall "W Vista" and usualy at "C:/" be... 2~3% free space | 21:20 |
| tehmal | and size of C:/ was exacly 45gb | 21:21 |

| tehmal | OerHeks: i typed sudo rm /var/logs/* -R && sudo rm /tmp/* but not help... only lose around 2-3 gig =C | 21:23 |
| OerHeks | uh oh, don't empty the log folder like that ... | 21:23 |
| OerHeks | not all logs will be recreated. | 21:24 |
| tehmal | OerHeks: i do it wrong? | 21:24 |
| OerHeks | and removal of /tmp/,.. i have never done this in years. no need to. | 21:24 |
| OerHeks | sudo apt autoremove # this should clean up stuff, and check your /home/ folder for big logs | 21:25 |
| rond_ | Hello! Why if I do "export M2_HOME=/home/kamil/maven/apache-maven-3.3.9" having opened terminal in some directory and then open second terminal in another directory, then "echo $M2" prints nothing? | 21:25 |
| tehmal | OerHeks: izi... 400gb free at /home/... idk where are logs at home | 21:25 |
| momken | rond_: echo $M2_HOME | 21:26 |
| rond_ | momken: in another terminal then i've set it - prints nothing | 21:26 |
| tehmal | OerHeks: but why only 2gb is left ?! | 21:27 |
| tehmal | OerHeks: at Ubu partition? | 21:27 |
| momken | It won't in another terminal. Other terminal as another session | 21:27 |
| momken | rond_: Except you define that export in bashrc or something similar | 21:27 |
| transitbot | has anyone installed remix os alongside ubuntu? | 21:28 |
| thermos | ok, what would keep my bootable USB from being seen as bootable by 2 different computers? | 21:29 |

| rond_ | momken: so: export ... works only for current session (terminal), if I want to make it persistent then i should modify the /usr/environment file? | 21:33 |
| alkisg | thermos: when you insert the usb stick to your windows, do you see files like vmlinuz, syslinux etc inside it? | 21:33 |
| alkisg | thermos: also, the computers you're using now, are they uefi or legacy bios? | 21:33 |
| momken | rond_: You can modify /etc/profile or /etc/bashrc or ~/.bashrc (if I remember correctly) | 21:34 |

| stratocastorNM | Hello everyone!! | 21:42 |
| stratocastorNM | Anyone here get folding at home working? 16.04? | 21:45 |
| sphrak | Hi im having issues with link speed on my nic. all of a sudden I get this in dmesg: https://dpaste.de/g5sE#L and I have changed cables 3 times but it still occurs. ubuntu 16.04 lts | 21:45 |
| sphrak | im on kernel 4.4.0-64-generic | 21:46 |
| stratocastorNM | So still occurs with all three other cables? | 21:48 |
| stratocastorNM | ifconfig show errors? | 21:48 |
| sphrak | stratocastorNM: yes, at first I get 1000mbit/s then after a while its downgraded to 100 | 21:49 |
| stratocastorNM | made cables yourself? | 21:49 |
| sphrak | 1 of them it self made, but the other two are factory made and they do work with my other computers at 1000mbit no problem | 21:49 |
| alkisg | Does it happen with another kernel? E.g. an older one or a live cd? | 21:50 |
| sphrak | so I dont think its the cable tbh, because the only thing Ive changed lately is that I rebooted that computer yesterday to upgrade kernel. havent rebooted since 4th of feburary | 21:51 |
| sphrak | and then the issue came about | 21:51 |
| sphrak | alkisg: I havent tested that yet | 21:51 |
| stratocastorNM | could you show us results of lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net | 21:52 |

| keks | unity's multitouch gestures work fine | 22:00 |
| stratocastorNM | well shprak, taking a look through, but dont see anything obvious.. Just coneccting straigh to a switch? Or yet, whats the setup? | 22:01 |
| stratocastorNM | Try different ports? | 22:01 |
| sphrak | stratocastorNM: yes its directly to a HP ProCurve switch, ive tested other ports aswell but it acts the same im afraid -perhaps its dying on me haha | 22:02 |
| stratocastorNM | I'd hope not! but possibly.. | 22:04 |
| sphrak | well ill fiddle around some more, I have other NICs I can try with anyways so.. thanks for taking a look anyways :) if I find any thing significant ill report back | 22:05 |

| keks | hey, i just installed 16.10 on a yoga 900. everything works great! can i enable two-finger scrolling on the touchscreen though? it already works on the touchpad and unity's multitouch gestures work fine on the screen | 22:17 |
| keks | (i hope asking again is okay after some time?) | 22:17 |
| ikonia | I doubt it | 22:18 |
| ikonia | but I don't oknw | 22:18 |
| ikonia | don't know | 22:18 |
| keks | yeah i just realized that was only 15m | 22:18 |
| keks | i'll idle anyway, maybe ask again tomorrow | 22:18 |
| ikonia | thats fine | 22:19 |
| ikonia | 15m is fine | 22:19 |
| ikonia | but I mean I doubt you can do it on the touchscreen | 22:19 |
| keks | ohh is see :) | 22:19 |
| keks | hm, too bad | 22:19 |
| ikonia | you'll need to look at what xorg driver your touch screen can support | 22:19 |
| ikonia | probably none | 22:19 |
| ikonia | touch screen on linux is quite a narrow window of supported devices, | 22:19 |
| keks | oh the touch screen works | 22:19 |
| ikonia | but I don't know the full list | 22:19 |
| ikonia | keks: thats a good start then | 22:19 |
| ikonia | you just need to see if the driver it's using supports multi-touch, | 22:20 |
| keks | unity's multitouch gestures work fine | 22:20 |
| ikonia | there maybe overlay software if it doesn't (I'm guessing) | 22:20 |
| keks | but scrolling doesnt... | 22:20 |
| c|oneman | it's pretty amazing when I had a yoga, the touchscreen was great, and the trackpad was trash. HOw can they repeately put out lousy trackpads year after year, and then pull out a great touchscreen, relatively a new concept | 22:20 |
| keks | yeah the trackpad is annoying, feels like it sometimes randomly jumps | 22:21 |
| momken_ | momken hi | 22:34 |
| momken_ | momken, hi again | 22:35 |

| RedPenguin | I am trying to find out, for SSL Certificates are they shared via various programs? I added an SSL cert and Chrome is working but ffmpeg, VLC, and others aren't | 23:00 |
| keks | RedPenguin: try copying it to /etc/ssl/certs | 23:01 |
| RedPenguin | tried but so far everything but Chrome is saying SSL error | 23:03 |
| RedPenguin | I was given a p12 file which seems difficult to put on the Linux PC | 23:04 |
| RedPenguin | A Windows machine I tried the p12 file on took it immediately, it's just being more difficult on my Ubuntu | 23:05 |
| KenLL | Hello. | 23:05 |
| KenLL | It appears with the latest update that FULL RBG is enabled by default? | 23:05 |
| KenLL | Can anyone confirm? | 23:05 |
| KenLL | When I used to reboot I'd type: /usr/bin/xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" | 23:06 |
| KenLL | The screen would go black and then come back with better colors. | 23:06 |
| KenLL | Now that line does nothing. | 23:06 |
| KenLL | Any devs in here? | 23:06 |
| zerorax | hi | 23:08 |
| RedPenguin | unless I didn't make the crt file correctly | 23:08 |
| pierre_ | hello everybody | 23:09 |
| RedPenguin | I am not really sure how to take a p12 that contains the Certs and Key together | 23:09 |
| zerorax | I'm interested in completely rewriting unity without compositor or fancy effects, but recreating the same APIs and app programming methods for interacting with it. Would anyone be interested in helping with the project? I think there's no reason unity needs to use more than 10-15mb of ram | 23:09 |
| KenLL | It appears with the latest update that FULL RBG is enabled by default? | 23:09 |
| KenLL | Can anyone confirm? | 23:09 |
| KenLL | When I used to reboot I'd type: /usr/bin/xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" | 23:09 |
| KenLL | Now that line does nothing. | 23:09 |
| keks | RedPenguin: hang on, gonna search for p12 | 23:10 |
| tgm4883 | !patience | KenLL | 23:10 |
| ubottu | KenLL: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 23:10 |
| RedPenguin | keks: thanks, I did do a lot of Googling for myself but I think I have been doing it all wrong | 23:11 |
| KenLL | Is the Ubuntu Forum a better place to ask? | 23:11 |
| KenLL | I mean is the responsive better there? | 23:11 |
| KenLL | I thought the same devs would go there as here. | 23:11 |
| k1l_ | KenLL: file a bug or ask an answer on launchpad.net | 23:12 |
| === inb4 is now known as wlp1s1 | ||
| tgm4883 | KenLL: you could wait longer than 3 minutes before asking again. You could also check what updates you did and then look at the changelog | 23:12 |
| KenLL | I had big 145 MB update | 23:12 |
| KenLL | that was the most recent one. | 23:12 |
| tatertots | KenLL: you're saying that with HDMI the ones and zeros coming from the video source were dull and that you had to issue the above mentioned line to get satisfactory color reproduction?.....seems odd | 23:12 |
| KenLL | tatertots, I'm saying that I used to type that line every time I booted. The screen would go blank, then come back with much better colors. | 23:13 |
| keks | RedPenguin: so I found this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/403174/convert-pfx-to-cer | 23:13 |
| KenLL | This line: /usr/bin/xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" | 23:13 |
| KenLL | Now when I type that nothing happens, so I wonder if it's being enabled by default since the latest update. | 23:13 |
| keks | do that and put the .cer/.crt file to /etc/ssl/certs | 23:13 |
| KenLL | How do I figure out which mode my xrandr is using? | 23:14 |
| tatertots | KenLL: you can try to post in the forums but don't be surprised if the post grows dust and mold | 23:14 |
| KenLL | tatertots, How come? | 23:15 |
| KenLL | tatertots, How come I use HDMI2 instead of HDMI1? | 23:15 |
| KenLL | My monitor has only 1 HDMI port. | 23:15 |
| KenLL | So why is it using HDMI2? | 23:15 |
| keks | KenLL: xrandr --prop | 23:16 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: do you have 2 HDMI ports on your video card? | 23:16 |
| KenLL | Ah, I'm using RBG Full. | 23:16 |
| KenLL | It appears the latest Ubuntu update or kernel update has made it so that RGB FULL is being activated by default. | 23:16 |
| KenLL | I used to have to do this manually. | 23:16 |
| KenLL | Now what about why my monitor is using HDMI2 instead of HDMI1? | 23:16 |
| KenLL | It has just the one HDMI port. My comp has only 1 HDMI port as well. | 23:17 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: maybe there is a second one that doesn't have a port on it? | 23:17 |
| KenLL | A second what? | 23:17 |
| KenLL | 1 HDMI port on the monitor, 1 on the comp. | 23:17 |
| prppedro | KenLL: may be there's an onboard and another offboard | 23:17 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: HDMI port | 23:17 |
| keks | maybe its only accessible through a docking station | 23:18 |
| keks | could be a lot of things | 23:18 |
| KenLL | It's pretty clear my comp has just 1 HDMI port, and the monitor has just one HDMI port. | 23:18 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: right, because video card manufactures have never just not added a second port in order to save money.... | 23:18 |
| keks | KenLL: hang on, i'll check my crystal sphere | 23:19 |
| * tgm4883 isn't sure why it matters | 23:19 | |
| KenLL | tgm4883, My comp is an MSI Cubi. It has 1 displayport, 1 HDMI port. | 23:19 |
| KenLL | That's all. | 23:19 |
| prppedro | KenLL: whatever your HDMI configuration is... | 23:19 |
| KenLL | It has built-in Intel graphics. | 23:19 |
| prppedro | probably there's nothing to do with your problem per se | 23:19 |
| KenLL | But I feel I should be using HDMI1, not HDMI2. | 23:20 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: does your mini display port show up as HDMI? | 23:20 |
| prppedro | Sometimes, my laptop onboard WLAN lists as wlan1 instead of wlan0 | 23:20 |
| KenLL | You think that's mini display port is HDMI1? | 23:20 |
| KenLL | I'll try that display port. One moment. | 23:20 |
| * tgm4883 shrugs | 23:20 | |
| tgm4883 | I don't think it really matters | 23:21 |
| keks | yeah it doesn't matter at all | 23:21 |
| tatertots | KenLL: open terminal | 23:21 |
| KenLL | Any benefit to using mini display port to HDMI vs HDMI to HDMI? | 23:21 |
| prppedro | tgm4883: yep, chances are high it does not... | 23:21 |
| tgm4883 | but you seem super interested in this, so I'm going to go back to knocking people out and hiding their bodies in dumpsters | 23:21 |

| KenLL | tgm4883, I'm trying to maximize the clarity and colors of my screen experience. | 23:22 |
| KenLL | http://termbin.com/h3l9 | 23:22 |
| KenLL | Here is what it says. | 23:22 |
| KenLL | Output HDMI2 using initial mode on pipe 0. | 23:23 |
| KenLL | Is that optimal? | 23:23 |
| keks | yes | 23:23 |
| keks | its perfect | 23:23 |
| KenLL | Like I say, I used to type RGB = FULL when I rebooted and it made a big difference. Since the latest update I don't notice any difference when I type that | 23:23 |
| KenLL | so I assume it's doing it automatically. | 23:23 |
| KenLL | keks, http://termbin.com/h3l9 | 23:24 |
| KenLL | There is the full result for your analysis. | 23:24 |
| FMan | off to bed - good night hacking away with your ubuntus! | 23:24 |

| tatertots | KenLL: press enter share url/link here | 23:24 |
| prppedro | My laptop says there's DP and HDMI despite there's none, really... So, may be your controller supports two HDMI ports, but there's only one wired to HDMI 2 slot | 23:25 |
| keks | KenLL: there is a way to run the HDMI protocol over displayport, maybe that is what HDMI1 is for | 23:25 |
| keks | but it doesn't matter | 23:25 |
| KenLL | keks, No idea. | 23:26 |
| KenLL | I just think it's strange that I have the only HDMI port on my computer hooked to the only HDMI on my monitor, and it shows as HDMI2. | 23:26 |
| KenLL | Why does it say: Output HDMI2 has no monitor section | 23:27 |
| KenLL | but then it says: Output HDMI2 using initial mode 1920x1080 on pipe 0 | 23:27 |
| tatertots | KenLL: because it doesn't | 23:27 |
| KenLL | tatertots, http://termbin.com/h3l9 | 23:27 |
| KenLL | see here. | 23:27 |
| KenLL | It says both those things. | 23:27 |
| keks | it sais HDMI1 has no monitor section because there is no monitor attached to HDMI1 | 23:27 |
| tatertots | KenLL: and it really does not matter...these things to no work "linearly" like your thoughts | 23:27 |
| KenLL | But also says HDMI2 has no monitor selection | 23:27 |
| tatertots | KenLL: and it really does not matter...these things do not work "linearly" like your thoughts | 23:28 |
| KenLL | before it says the other line about pipe 0. | 23:28 |
| KenLL | tatertots, If you say so. So my setup is fairly common? | 23:28 |
| tatertots | KenLL: so don't think to hard about it....it's doing it's job...it's job is to produce a picture for your eyes...and its doing just that | 23:28 |
| keks | its a monitor attached to a computer | 23:28 |
| keks | yes its common | 23:28 |
| KenLL | I'm not doing anything strange yet it's using HDMI2. However notice this output: | 23:28 |
| KenLL | http://termbin.com/h3l9 | 23:28 |
| prppedro | KenLL: What's the deal with your ~video experience~? | 23:29 |
| KenLL | 12.162] (II) intel(0): Output HDMI2 has no monitor section | 23:29 |
| KenLL | 12.162] (--) intel(0): Output HDMI2 using initial mode 1920x1080 on pipe 0 | 23:29 |
| KenLL | How can it say both those things? | 23:29 |
| keks | you posted that link like ten thousand times now. we've all seen it. its fine | 23:29 |
| tatertots | KenLL: we've already seen http://termbin.com/h3l9 | 23:29 |
| KenLL | They are mutually exclusive. | 23:29 |
| tatertots | KenLL: if you're going to post links try the new one you've yet to post | 23:29 |
| KenLL | tatertots, Which new one? | 23:29 |
| keks | qed | 23:30 |
| keks | KenLL: I guess it first checks for config files and then plug and play devices | 23:30 |
| tatertots | KenLL: in terminal> xrandr|nc termbin.com 9999 | 23:31 |
| keks | there are no config files ("no monitor section") and then it finds the monitor via pnp | 23:31 |
| KenLL | My monitor is straining my eyes and giving me a mild headache. It may be the monitor, but I want to be assured I have things functioning 100%. Like I say, when I used to type RBG = FULL it made a huge difference. Now that seems to be enabled by default.. so it looks like someone at Ubuntu listened to my feedback. | 23:31 |
| keks | take | 23:31 |
| keks | a | 23:31 |
| keks | walk | 23:31 |
| KenLL | Here you are, tatertots: | 23:32 |
| KenLL | http://termbin.com/6blj | 23:32 |
| KenLL | Anything interesting here? | 23:32 |
| keks | i can't take it anymore | 23:32 |
| prppedro | KenLL, perhaps you should be more specific... It could be the refresh rate, but I highly doubt it. My bet is that you spend too much time in front of that screen... | 23:33 |
| prppedro | The easiest thing to try is to swap your display, if possible. | 23:33 |
| prppedro | You know, just to test... | 23:33 |
| tatertots | KenLL: looks normal | 23:34 |
| prppedro | But it's for sure unrelated with the position of your HDMI port, it's number or the lunar phase... | 23:34 |
| KenLL | prppedro, True, but like I say I used to type RBG = FULL and it made a huge difference. Before I figured that out I was using RGB = Limited without even knowing it. If I hadn't looked into things in great detail I'd never have known any better. | 23:34 |
| KenLL | I'd still be using Limited right now. | 23:34 |
| KenLL | Now it seems RBG = FULL is enabled by default in the very latest Ubuntu update package. | 23:35 |
| tatertots | KenLL: you don't have to type that anymore...get over it | 23:35 |
| onys | KenLL, try redshift-gtk or redshift-gui to dim the blue channel a bit, it helps me a lot, also darker themes | 23:35 |
| tatertots | KenLL: i used to have to hand crank my ford model "T" just to start the engine...my new car...i don't have to do that anymore | 23:36 |
| KenLL | tatertots, Yes, but changed only in the past day. | 23:36 |
| KenLL | Right up until today I always had to type RGB = FULL when I booted up or I'd be using Limited. | 23:36 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: if you switch it to limited and then back to full, does anything change? | 23:37 |
| KenLL | tgm4883, I tried now this: | 23:37 |
| KenLL | --> /usr/bin/xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Limited" | 23:37 |
| KenLL | But this gives error messages and does nothing. | 23:37 |
| KenLL | The magic line until today was this: /usr/bin/xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" | 23:38 |
| KenLL | That improved my colors about 3X. | 23:38 |
| tatertots | KenLL: post in the forums and wait on replies | 23:38 |
| tatertots | KenLL: you'd need expensive instruments to claim 3x...measuring and making a guess with human eye sight is far from scientific | 23:39 |
| KenLL | tatertots, It appears with the latest update not only is RGB = FULL enabed by default, but I can't make it "Limited" even if I tell it that in the command line. | 23:39 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: the error message would be helpful | 23:39 |
| KenLL | tgm4883, X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) | 23:39 |
| prppedro | KenLL: It's hard to tell, colour adjustment is something kinda personal... You should fiddle with the settings until you find a confortable point. | 23:39 |
| KenLL | tatertots, Just my guess to give you an idea of the magnitude of the improvement. | 23:40 |
| KenLL | I had literally been using my monitor for about 10 months on Limited mode because I didn't know any better. | 23:41 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: try "Limited 16:235" | 23:41 |
| KenLL | That did it. This is how I was using my monitor for 10 months before I stumbled into RGB = Full. | 23:42 |
| KenLL | It's much inferior. | 23:42 |
| KenLL | It appears one of the devs in here listened to my feedback and made RGB = FULL the default. | 23:42 |
| KenLL | Congratulations on that. | 23:42 |
| k1l_ | KenLL: so what changed? sometimes when you change versions commands do change. | 23:42 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: ok, so now it's worse when you set it to limited? | 23:42 |
| KenLL | tgm4883, Absolutely. I believe RGB = FULL is now the default in the very latest Ubuntu update. | 23:43 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: ok, so now do the full command again | 23:43 |
| KenLL | I specifically made this request. I didn't know any devs were listening in here. | 23:43 |
| KenLL | tgm4883, Yes, I put it back to Full. | 23:43 |
| tgm4883 | and it's back to how it was before, it's not better? | 23:43 |
| KenLL | Where is the Change Log for the Ubuntu updates? | 23:43 |
| tgm4883 | honestly, it probably wasn't you asking in here about it. It was probably a bug fix in the automatic detection | 23:44 |
| k1l_ | KenLL: there is no general changelog. they are noted for each package | 23:44 |
| === On4r4p is now known as On4r4p______ | ||
| KenLL | I am in Broadcast RGB Full mode. I believe Automatic used to be the default. | 23:45 |
| KenLL | Now with the latest update it actually goes beyond Automatic and sets Full. | 23:45 |
| KenLL | This is a big improvement because 80% of users have no idea they are using RGB = Limited. | 23:45 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: no, it's probably still automatic. Just that the automatic detection is working better on your hardware | 23:45 |
| k1l_ | ok, so your issue is fixed. everything done | 23:46 |
| tatertots | please..make it stop | 23:46 |
| KenLL | k1l_, True, that part of the issue seems fixed though I'm still puzzled I'm using HDMI2 instead of HDMI1. | 23:46 |
| KenLL | But I'm told that makes no difference. | 23:46 |
| tgm4883 | OMG | 23:47 |
| KenLL | I'm going to reboot my machine and see if I start once again using RGB = Full without having to explicate it via command line. | 23:47 |
| k1l_ | KenLL: i guess you dont plan to dig into technical code or technical details on how to build a a video card hardwarewise, so stay with the easy answer and be happy. | 23:48 |
| KenLL | k1l_, Like I say, for 10 months I was using RGB = Limited without even knowing it. | 23:48 |
| KenLL | I'm lucky I realized that or I'd still to this day be using Limited. | 23:48 |
| k1l_ | KenLL: all the channel knows your story | 23:48 |

| tgm4883 | KenLL: have you tried adjusting your color profile yet? | 23:49 |
| KenLL | tgm4883, No. How do I do that? | 23:49 |

| dejand | hello, i have a one question about Landscape (https://landscape.canonical.com) i cannot find information about licencing and pricing. my question is, is it free for on-prem installation and are they any limitations. Also I dont quite get what's the difference between landscape and ubutnu advantage | 23:50 |
| KenLL | tgm4883, It says I need to go to System Settings + Color. | 23:52 |
| KenLL | But I can't find that. | 23:52 |
| tgm4883 | dejand: you have to call for pricing I believe. IIRC, up to 10 devices are free, but not on premise | 23:52 |
| OerHeks | dejand, scroll down.. 'get landscape .." | 23:52 |
| tgm4883 | KenLL: you are using Unity? | 23:52 |
| KenLL | tgm4883, No, Mate. | 23:52 |
| tgm4883 | FFS | 23:52 |
| dejand | those links just redirect to me Ubuntu Advantage | 23:53 |
| KenLL | I asked in #ubuntu-mate just now, but there's only 80 users in there and it probably won't get a response. | 23:53 |

| coffeeguy | hi am looking for a gmail webmail alternative with an ubuntu client? | 23:56 |
| OerHeks | coffeeguy, tons of free email services, not really an ubuntu support issue | 23:57 |
| coffeeguy | recommend any? | 23:58 |
| coffeeguy | true that it's not an ubuntu issue i'll ask in ##linux :) | 23:59 |
| OerHeks | How about the mail service your provider gives you? | 23:59 |
| dotscit | coffeeguy: find webclient that allows POP or IMAP. Whatever you prefer. | 23:59 |
