| Zambzz | thanks 😀 | 00:00 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: :) of course . Now if ya can just get stable on a default install . | 00:00 |
| causative | I've been having a problem where my game repeatedly freezes for a second at a time, and I've noticed that each time this happens, my CPU0 usage drops to zero for a brief period... so maybe there is something wrong with CPU0, is t here any way to disable it? if I try echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online I get permission denied (I can disable the other 7 CPUs) | 00:01 |
| === marius_ is now known as Guest995 | ||
| causative | or I'd like to switch some other CPU to CPU0 | 00:01 |
| FoeHammered | oscar mike golf i learned so much today thank y'all | 00:01 |
| nacc | causative: if you really have an issue with cpu 0, that measn you probalby have a hardware issue. | 00:01 |
| nacc | causative: most likely, given that you're playing a game on it, cpu 0 is really thread 0 or so | 00:02 |
| causative | nacc, I have disabled the other 7 CPUs, andI'm watching my system monitor performance widget | 00:02 |
| causative | so it's def CPU 0 | 00:02 |
| causative | also this is not just this one application, I have had similar freezes at other times, this is just when it's more of a problem | 00:03 |
| nacc | causative: "CPU" is just the Linux terminology, it's really a logical thing, not a physical thing. | 00:03 |
| nacc | causative: it seems incredibly unikely that only your thread 0 would have physical issues and none of the others | 00:04 |
| Gongoj | Question. In bash is it possible to inject a keystroke through a script to automatically accept a license? | 00:04 |
| causative | it's a single threaded program | 00:04 |
| azizLIGHT | Bashing-om: well i think im stable now. the whole reason im trying to get to HWE 4.4 was xbox one controller support. but im hearing from my other hcannels that i should just a newer version of xpad | 00:04 |
| azizLIGHT | ive been doing this all wrong eh | 00:04 |
| azizLIGHT | and causing my self and all of you such headaches | 00:05 |
| nacc | causative: do you understand cpu topology? | 00:05 |
| causative | nacc, are you telling me that /proc/cpuinfo is purely logical and has no correspondence to my hardware, even t hough it lists 8 CPUs and that is my hardware? | 00:05 |
| nacc | causative: when i said thread 0 it had nothing to do with your software threads | 00:05 |
| nacc | Gongoj: you could use expect | 00:05 |
| nacc | Gongoj: or `yes` | 00:05 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: All a process of learning . there is the care and feeding of your 'buntu :P | 00:05 |
| Gongoj | For instance the command 'sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ext-pack' needs me to use the keys tab spacebar spacebar to accept agreement. Can this automated? | 00:05 |
| nacc | Gongoj: you don't want to automate, genearlly, accepting agreements | 00:06 |
| nacc | causative: no, i am saying that if /proc/cpuinfo says you ahve 8 cpus, it means you ahve 8 logical cpus. It does not mean you physically have 8 cpus. Which means that even if you did disable logical CPU 0, that if your hardware is that broken, there's probably something else wrong | 00:06 |
| causative | nacc, I am not aware of an alternate meaning of thread than software threads, and googling doesn't turn up much, can you give me a link? | 00:06 |
| Gongoj | i just want to automate my virtualbox installation as much as possible. | 00:07 |
| nacc | causative: SMT? | 00:07 |
| nacc | causative: Symmetric Multi-Threading | 00:07 |
| UserUS | Gonoj: Yes, you can write a simple script and have it execute at a certain time | 00:07 |
| === xtr is now known as Guest210 | ||
| causative | nacc, there may be something wrong, I did get some weird CPU pipeline errors some months ago though they haven't returned | 00:08 |
| Gongoj | From the example I gave I don't know how to automate the accepting of the license. | 00:08 |
| causative | but it seems it might be possible the error is just in one specific core | 00:08 |
| causative | and I want to disable that core and see if it helps | 00:08 |
| causative | except I'm not able to disable cpu0, just the others | 00:09 |
| UserUS | causative: that will cause a logical failure, it will get bad blocks | 00:09 |
| === Numline1 is now known as Guest59662 | ||
| nacc | causative: i don't think you understand how computer hardware works, or the likelihood of only one core being bad, but let me look | 00:10 |
| nacc | UserUS: what? cores have nothing to do with blocks | 00:10 |
| nacc | causative: you oculd isolcpus=0 and see if stuff just doesn't get scheduled on logical cpu 0 | 00:11 |
| === amin_ is now known as amflir | ||
| UserUS | nacc: it will lead to that with the miswrites if all but one logical unit is left | 00:11 |
| nacc | UserUS: what are you talking about? | 00:11 |
| nacc | UserUS: 'all but one logical unit'? | 00:11 |
| UserUS | nacc: so if he disable the other 7 | 00:12 |
| nacc | causative: alternatively, i think you need to pass 'cpu0_hotplug=1' | 00:12 |
| Zambzz | credel, well that didn't work 😢 | 00:12 |
| causative | I would enable one of the other 7 before disabling 0 | 00:12 |
| Zambzz | crendel* | 00:12 |
| nacc | causative: generally, cpu0 isn't hotpluggable, because there are lots of assumptions | 00:12 |
| nacc | UserUS: you can't disable all your cpus | 00:12 |
| nacc | causative: --^ | 00:12 |
| nacc | causative: so you don't need to worry abou tthat | 00:12 |
| UserUS | nacc: oh well good | 00:12 |
| Alessandro_ | Hello. I'm having some issues using MariaDB on Ubuntu 16.04. I install it with "apt-get install mariadb-server mariadb-client". When I run "mysql -uroot", however, I get "Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'". I then run mysql_safe_installation and set a password for the root user, and I still get the same error over and over again when logging in with "mysql -uroot -p" and typing the correct password. any hint? | 00:13 |
| nacc | UserUS: which is why i asked what you were talkinga bout. Because if you could, then where you would 'you' (the shell you're running) be running? | 00:13 |
| UserUS | nacc: exactly | 00:13 |
| Gongoj | Ugh okay thanks | 00:13 |
| nacc | UserUS: what does that at all ahve to do with bad blocks? | 00:13 |
| nacc | causative: without cpu0, you won't be able to suspend/resume, some machines also won't poweroff wihtout it | 00:14 |
| causative | nacc, pardon me if this is a silly question, is there any way to direct it so that CPU 0 is still CPU 0, but the game's thread is forced to run on a different CPU? | 00:14 |
| nacc | causative: yes | 00:14 |
| Zambzz | ooo crendel for some reason by entering recovery mode and then exiting it got me bk to login and now i see stuff | 00:14 |
| nacc | causative: also, i think the ubuntu kernel does not set CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 so it won't matter, you still can't hotplug it :) | 00:14 |
| UserUS | nacc: well, if somehow you could theoretically stay connected after disabling them, the drive could fail | 00:14 |
| nacc | UserUS: that is, as far as I can tell, gibberish | 00:15 |
| Zambzz | my problem is solved, thanks for the help guys | 00:15 |
| nacc | UserUS: and not useful in a support channel | 00:15 |
| UserUS | nacc: you asked what I meant | 00:15 |
| nacc | causative: taskset | 00:15 |
| nacc | UserUS: and i think what you are saying you meant is 'if you could run a process without any cpus online, you could get bad blocks'. Which is ... gibberish. | 00:16 |
| zach2825 | hello, does anybody here use LXC? | 00:16 |

| zach2825 | lxc network used to be a command but now its gone in version 2.0.9 | 00:16 |

| nacc | Alessandro_: may want to ask in #ubuntu-server | 00:18 |
| Alessandro_ | nacc thanks | 00:18 |
| nacc | UserUS: fine, 'if you could run a process without any cpus online, you could see a memory failure'. a) vacuously true and b) it doesn't make any sense. Please drop it. | 00:18 |
| UserUS | nacc: I will. But you should do some research. | 00:21 |
| causative | thanks nacc i tried taskset, no improvement, guess i need to look elsewhere, try isolcpus=0, or give up | 00:25 |
| nacc | causative: with taskset did you isolate it to not cpu 0? did cpu 0 still get used? | 00:26 |
| causative | command was taskset -p fe 5856, previously it was ff | 00:27 |
| causative | I don't know how to check if cpu 0 is still getting used | 00:27 |
| nacc | causative: taskset -p pid | 00:27 |
| nacc | causative: how were you checking if it was getting used before?? | 00:27 |
| causative | that's how i checked | 00:27 |
| causative | thought you meant something else | 00:27 |
| causative | yes, it's fe now | 00:28 |
| nacc | causative: but how did you check before? | 00:28 |
| causative | taskset -p 5856 | 00:28 |
| causative | before you talked to me i turned all the other CPUs off so what I saw in the system monitor widget had to be on CPU0 | 00:28 |
| nacc | causative: no, i meant earlier you saw that cpu 0 was dropping off or whatever | 00:29 |
| nacc | causative: also, you did turn some other cpus back on, right? | 00:29 |
| zerorax | anyone else using mariadb have a problem with the current version in the repo hanging right after you start it? | 00:29 |
| causative | yeah i turned them all back on | 00:29 |
| zerorax | *16.04 | 00:29 |
| Grasdorvo | o | 00:29 |
| causative | specifically the monitor is called indicator-multiload | 00:30 |
| nacc | causative: the thing is if cpu0 is glitchy, then anything runnng on cpu0 will lead to issues | 00:31 |
| nacc | causative: so it doesn't really make sense to just try and taskset the one task you care about, other stuff is running too | 00:31 |
| causative | you think I should try tasksetting all processes to fe? | 00:32 |

| nacc | Aurorasaura: do you mean software RAID? | 01:55 |
| nacc | Aurorasaura: mdadm is what you want | 01:55 |

| Aurorasaura | Kinda but all the drives are different sizes | 01:56 |
| uub | I first have to resolve the hostname by myself and replace it with its IP address in a rsync command to make it actually work | 01:56 |
| uub | why? | 01:56 |
| nacc | Aurorasaura: oh then you want LVM | 01:56 |
| Aurorasaura | I am trying that lol but the documentation is so hard to follow | 01:56 |
| nacc | uub: that's not generally true, i don't think | 01:56 |

| BHSPiMonkey | Using Ubuntu 16.04 (standard flavor with Unity) and my screen never auto-locks, despite my "Brightness & Lock" settings having Lock "ON" and set to "Lock screen after: 1 minute" | 03:00 |
| BHSPiMonkey | (Correction: 16.10) | 03:01 |
| BHSPiMonkey | I've tried turning Lock off and back on, and changing the lock timeout to 30 seconds, and it still never locks on its own. I'm monitoring xinput events and nothing is happening that would reset the idle timer. How can I debug this? | 03:01 |
| BHSPiMonkey | I'm able to manually lock via the power menu and the keyboard shortcut; it's only the automatic timer that isn't working. I'm not sure how Unity determines how long I've been "idle" (so that I can monitor that myself or add some logging) | 03:03 |

| BHSPiMonkey | kostkon: though despite those last messages, I can confirm that unity-settings-daemon is indeed running right now (I actually have no idea what process actually watches the clock and auto-locks the screen) | 03:15 |
| Guest96509 | terribly | 03:15 |
| BHSPiMonkey | If I knew which program was supposed to be responsible for the auto-lock timer, I would have started digging into source code by now | 03:16 |
| BHSPiMonkey | As far as I can tell, Unity uses the same conf keys that gnome-screensaver would, but has its own homegrown implementation | 03:17 |
| kostkon | BHSPiMonkey, well you could tail -f the xsession error file and see if you are getting the same error message when the screensaver lock is supposed to fire up | 03:17 |
| BHSPiMonkey | will do | 03:17 |
| BHSPiMonkey | Nope, no new lines after the 30 sec. | 03:19 |
| kostkon | BHSPiMonkey, it could be random then | 03:19 |
| BHSPiMonkey | I wish it were more obvious what mechanism is supposed to enforce the timeout (so I could make sure that process is running), and subsequently how that process determines if you've been idle (so I can monitor whatever events it's monitoring) | 03:20 |
| lotuspsychje | BHSPiMonkey: did you have this on previous ubuntu versions? | 03:21 |

| BHSPiMonkey | I'm really keen on figuring out what in my current install is preventing it from working as described | 03:25 |
| lotuspsychje | BHSPiMonkey: wondering if different kernels test would influence this, have you tried to !bug it yet? | 03:25 |
| BHSPiMonkey | (And to be honest it's a bit of a problem when the Settings app tells you a security setting is "on" when it really isn't) | 03:25 |

| OerHeks | oh, ubottu is offline | 03:28 |
| BHSPiMonkey | I'll probably end up doing a full checkout of unity source repos when I get home and start digging. I really hate this issue | 03:28 |
| acidchild | OerHeks: what does the bot say when you do !mainline? :) | 03:29 |
| OerHeks | acidchild, it points to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds , where is stated that it is for testing | 03:30 |
| lotuspsychje | BHSPiMonkey: i strongly reccomend to test 16.04.2 LTS also on your issue, to compare | 03:31 |
| acidchild | OerHeks: so unrelated to my issue. ok | 03:32 |
| OerHeks | acidchild, you tried, and you claim it is in previous kernels too, so mention that in the bugreport? | 03:33 |
| OerHeks | acidchild, did you search in bugs for your machine + close lid ?? | 03:33 |
| acidchild | OerHeks: http://askubuntu.com/questions/395428/laptop-does-not-suspend-when-lid-is-closed | 03:36 |
| acidchild | it's very hard to tell what the laptop is doing when the lid is closed, it's possible it's not suspending at all. | 03:37 |
| acidchild | i'll give the work around in the forum a go but it seems weird this issue exists at all. | 03:37 |
| Condor_Peregrino | Hellow guys, I was wondering if someone could help me with the next problem. I recently installeda HDD drive to my computer and I encrypted it. The thing is after putting the password to open it etc. It says that I do not have the permissions to enter "The file could not be saved because yo do not have the propers permissios. Choose antoher save directory. | 03:37 |
| acidchild | how did you encrypt the drive? | 03:39 |
| acidchild | is this your base OS drive or is this an additional disk? | 03:39 |
| === lu is now known as Guest69139 | ||
| Condor_Peregrino | acidchild: I encrypted when I installed the system; this is an HDD drive that I want to use only to store files. M | 03:41 |
| acidchild | OerHeks: or it is something as simple as -> http://i.imgur.com/wAKG5JB.png :p | 03:42 |
| acidchild | Condor_Peregrino: screenshot/pastebin please. the real error is needed. | 03:43 |

| acidchild | what are you doing that causes this. | 03:45 |
| jamesd | Condor_Peregrino: save it in your home directory or /tmp or /var/tmp or fix the permissions on where you want the file to be | 03:45 |
| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: ¿Can I change the level of permissions that that drive has in certain times only? | 03:48 |
| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: ¿how can i change the persmissions? | 03:48 |
| jamesd | sudo -s | 03:49 |
| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: ¿And what will be the commands? | 03:50 |
| jamesd | chown your-user-name /some/directory/you/are/interested/in | 03:50 |
| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: will the permissions be permanent? | 03:50 |
| jamesd | or chmod 7777 /some/diretory/you/want/to/write/too #note this is not a good idea if you care about security | 03:51 |
| jamesd | it will make your user id the owner of the files in the directory. | 03:51 |
| jamesd | if you own the files usually you can write to them | 03:51 |
| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: oh nice!,let me try it out | 03:51 |
| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: it worked!!!! | 03:54 |
| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: many thanks! | 03:54 |

| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: well I have a question that is a little bit for difficutl | 03:58 |
| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: difficult | 03:58 |
| jamesd | ok | 03:59 |
| Condor_Peregrino | jamesd: well I want to run a Virtual Box image on this HDD drive. ¿Will this virtual machine will be always available?, in the senses that obviously I need the password of the hard-drive but after that will I have to use chown all the time?. | 04:00 |
| jamesd | Condor_Peregrino: now that you have done chown you own the file you can make changes to it... you can start the virtualbox image headless and i think there are ways to have it autostart headless when you power on hte machine but haven't looked at that in years.. | 04:01 |
| Joey__ | hi 16.04 question. I would like to install mono complete for version 3.2.8 (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+package/mono-complete) how would I specify that I want this version and not 4.2.1.102? | 04:02 |

| stanford_ai | Every time my ubuntu 14.04 updates, the wifi stops working. Why is it doing this again, and again?????? | 05:23 |
| BHSPiMonkey | lotuspsychje / OerHeks - Thanks for the leads on the screen lock issue. Turns out the "Lock screen after" timeout setting starts counting *after* the "Turn screen off when inactive for" timeout has been reached. The two options aren't even presented under the same subheading so it's quite unclear that they are connected... | 05:23 |
| stanford_ai | should I disable all updates? ubuntu is annoying as fuck | 05:23 |
| BHSPiMonkey | Nevertheless the timer is working, so I guess there's no issue there. I might open a bug to propose making the settings UI for those options a little more self-documenting | 05:24 |
| BHSPiMonkey | (or to allow for the lock timeout to happen -before- the screen poweroff timeout, which is what I was expecting / wanting) | 05:25 |
| raccoonsrage | uRock is it going to be the same SSH as before? | 05:26 |
| BHSPiMonkey | stanford_ai: never heard of that happening. Have you opened a bug report with details about your system and the steps to reproduce? In the meantime you might want to stick to security updates only | 05:26 |
| raccoonsrage | i have it forwarding for the machine running ubuntu | 05:27 |
| stanford_ai | BHSPiMonkey, I don't even know how to file a bug report, how to reproduce it, or what info to send. I want to do work | 05:27 |

| hitman1 | I have to split my display. I have 3 monitors. How to since my CPU only have 1 VGA port and no HDMI ? | 06:12 |
| arunpyasi | hello people !! I am having issue with my MIC. It works fine in Windows 10 but not in Ubuntu !! | 06:14 |
| hitman1 | I I purchase video card will it solve my problem ? | 06:14 |
| arunpyasi | what might be the reason ? | 06:14 |
| raccoonsrage | microphone? | 06:14 |
| hitman1 | Since VC too have 1 VGA port and I need 3 to connect 3 monitors. | 06:14 |
| hateball | hitman1: If you get a dedicated GPU the internal (cpu) wont be used. So you'll want a card with 3 outputs | 06:15 |
| hateball | hitman1: With displayport it is also possible to daisychain from a single port | 06:16 |
| arunpyasi | raccoonsrage, yes, the internal mic of laptop | 06:16 |
| raccoonsrage | make sure you have all the drivers installed | 06:16 |
| hitman1 | hateball, I saw few cards on amazon but they all have 1 VGA and 1 HDMI. | 06:16 |
| raccoonsrage | i had to add a couple that were missing after switching over | 06:16 |
| hitman1 | And I need atleast 3 VGA or 3 HDMIs. | 06:16 |
| arunpyasi | raccoonsrage, I have pavucontrol | 06:16 |
| hateball | arunpyasi: how are you determining "not working"? Have you tried recording in e.g Audacity? | 06:17 |
| hitman1 | How it is possible with display port ? | 06:17 |
| arunpyasi | raccoonsrage, which driver do you recommend for that ? | 06:17 |
| hateball | hitman1: https://www.displayport.org/cables/driving-multiple-displays-from-a-single-displayport-output/ | 06:17 |
| arunpyasi | hateball, yes, tried in Audacity | 06:17 |
| hateball | arunpyasi: have you made sure the device is not muted? run "alsamixer" in a terminal to see if that is the case | 06:17 |
| hitman1 | arunpyasi, what a nick lol .. :D | 06:18 |
| cb007 | hitman1: better than ours :p | 06:19 |

| ubuntu_n00b | I'm following up with AWS support, but does it also make sense to file an Ubuntu issue? | 06:20 |
| arunpyasi | hateball, ok, just got it working but has a lot noise | 06:21 |
| arunpyasi | and distortion | 06:21 |
| hateball | arunpyasi: what chipset is it? "lspci" | 06:21 |
| hateball | arunpyasi: it's possible you need to supply some kernel options for it to behave properly | 06:21 |
| arunpyasi | 00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Sunrise Point-LP HD Audio (rev 21) | 06:22 |
| hitman1 | hateball, I didn't get the displayport concept | 06:22 |
| hitman1 | Should I need to buy something ? | 06:22 |
| raccoonsrage | no | 06:23 |
| hitman1 | Then How can I split displays on different monitors using display ports >? | 06:23 |
| hateball | hitman1: well it depends on you having monitors with displayport | 06:23 |
| hitman1 | hateball, My monitors only have 1 port and that is VGA. | 06:23 |
| hateball | hitman1: well then you'd need a GPU with 3 total outputs, be it VGA+HDMI+DP, and use adapters for HDMI->VGA and DP->VGA | 06:25 |
| hateball | hitman1: anyhow, it's not really Ubuntu related, ##hardware would be a better place | 06:25 |
| hitman1 | If I need to buy a video card then which one should I go for as my sole purpose is split display and not gaming. | 06:25 |

| cfhowlett | OnceMe, that would be more ... | 09:17 |
| OnceMe | https://thepasteb.in/p/Q1hBOBAR1Zwu8 | 09:18 |
| cfhowlett | OnceMe, yep... ppa are non-trusted | 09:18 |
| OnceMe | but why is this ppa not found? | 09:18 |
| cfhowlett | the 404 suggests that either the package has been dropped or that source is in error | 09:18 |
| OnceMe | I used this to regularly update php | 09:18 |
| OnceMe | how to fix the source? | 09:19 |
| OnceMe | Should I remove this ppa? | 09:19 |
| ikevin | zamba, sftp localhost, when logued, type "version" | 09:19 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: talk to the ppa owner | 09:19 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: this is why ppa's are not trusted | 09:19 |
| cfhowlett | OnceMe, your choice. I don't do ppa myself ... | 09:19 |
| OnceMe | how do you install php then? | 09:19 |
| OnceMe | also I see in sources.list.d some files | 09:19 |
| OnceMe | those are ppa untrusted right? | 09:19 |
| cfhowlett | from the main repos ... apt install php | 09:19 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: you use the distro provided and maintained packages | 09:20 |
| ikonia | that way you are guarenteed support for the lifecycle of the distro | 09:20 |
| zamba | ikevin: thank you :) | 09:20 |
| OnceMe | cfhowlett: but that php version is obsolete | 09:20 |
| ikevin | zamba, you welcome | 09:21 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: what version of ubuntu are you using | 09:21 |
| OnceMe | 14.04 LTS | 09:21 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: what version does that ship with ? | 09:21 |
| ikonia | 5.4 ? | 09:21 |
| OnceMe | yes | 09:21 |
| ikevin | 5.6 i think | 09:21 |
| ikevin | o: | 09:21 |
| OnceMe | but I need fpm as well | 09:21 |
| OnceMe | fpm is not included | 09:21 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: so use a later version of ubuntu (16.04 lts for example which ships with 5 or 7) | 09:22 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: and that way you get support for the full lifecycle | 09:22 |
| OnceMe | I want 5.6.30 | 09:22 |
| ikonia | it doesn't really work like that | 09:22 |
| ikonia | more so with fixes being back ported | 09:22 |
| ikonia | the version will not always match upstream | 09:22 |
| ikevin | OnceMe, why you wan't this specific version? | 09:23 |
| OnceMe | because I have all I need in that version | 09:23 |
| OnceMe | and on my production server, it's 5.6.30 aswell | 09:23 |
| OnceMe | I want that to be matched | 09:23 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: it doesn't work like that though | 09:23 |
| OnceMe | I could used vagrant though | 09:23 |

| vyddtu | oops.. i want to paste an image somewhere before asking you people my query. | 09:27 |
| Legal | vyddtu, yes. Open image in text editor, and then paste. :/ But use imgur maybe... | 09:27 |
| vyddtu | Legal: let me try. thanks | 09:27 |
| OnceMe | ikonia: so what do I do? | 09:28 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: understand the versions the distro ships and pick a distro that supplies a support version that meets your requirements | 09:28 |
| === stefa____ is now known as sco01 | ||
| OnceMe | well you are saying I should use vagrant | 09:28 |
| ikevin | OnceMe, or don't upgrade php/mysql (freeze your currents package) | 09:28 |
| OnceMe | but I think its the best way anyway | 09:28 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: not at all | 09:29 |
| ikonia | I'mnot saying that at all | 09:29 |
| ikevin | OnceMe, http://askubuntu.com/questions/18654/how-to-prevent-updating-of-a-specific-package | 09:29 |
| Ben64 | really bad idea ^ | 09:29 |
| ikonia | agreed | 09:30 |
| ikevin | i know, but ... | 09:30 |
| Ben64 | ikevin: best not to give bad ideas out probably | 09:30 |
| OnceMe | Ben64: would you recommend vagrant | 09:31 |
| ikonia | no | 09:31 |
| vyddtu | Hello. I want to reinstall my Ubuntu.[[[ http://picpaste.com/unnamed.png ]] This is my current Disk Architecture along with Windows 7 installed which i feel is not correct. Please suggest me right partitions for fresh Installation. | 09:31 |
| OnceMe | why not | 09:31 |
| Ben64 | OnceMe: no | 09:31 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: for the reasons I stated earlier | 09:31 |
| ikonia | I have no idea why you think vagrant voids those reasons | 09:31 |
| Ben64 | vyddtu: why reinstall? and you should be able to boot the installer and choose to replace ubuntu | 09:32 |
| vyddtu | Ben64: you mean i run the Ubuntu 16.04 DVD again and replace Ubuntu? | 09:33 |
| Ben64 | vyddtu: yeah that should work | 09:33 |
| OnceMe | ikonia: it doesnt | 09:34 |
| OnceMe | but can ensure my distro is the same across local, staging and production environment | 09:34 |
| OnceMe | I use centos 6.8 on a local/staging platform | 09:34 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: by using the same distro | 09:34 |
| OnceMe | yes | 09:34 |
| Ben64 | yeah, then install centos 6.8 | 09:34 |
| OnceMe | thats why I need vagrant | 09:35 |
| Ben64 | no | 09:35 |
| ikonia | no | 09:35 |
| OnceMe | I like ubuntu as a home desktop | 09:35 |
| ikonia | thats how you ensure it | 09:35 |
| ikevin | OnceMe, if you wan't the same env as your production, clone your production server | 09:35 |
| OnceMe | what? | 09:35 |
| Ben64 | either use ubuntu or use centos, you can't make them the same | 09:35 |
| OnceMe | I know | 09:35 |
| OnceMe | I use ubuntu | 09:35 |
| Ben64 | i don't think you do know | 09:35 |
| OnceMe | for a home desktop, and when I develop apps, I use vagrant to run centos 6.8 | 09:35 |
| OnceMe | becuase thats my production server | 09:35 |
| OnceMe | right? | 09:35 |
| ikonia | use whatever technology you feel best to deliver a centos environment that mirrors your production server | 09:36 |

| aavrug | I have upgraded my Ubuntu OS to 16.04. Few MySQL tables are broken because Of that. Is there any way that I can downgrade MySQL to 5.5? | 09:37 |
| ikonia | no | 09:38 |
| OnceMe | aavrug: use vagrant | 09:38 |
| ikonia | and tables won't break because of an upgrade | 09:38 |
| ikonia | OnceMe: please stop telling people to blindly use vagrant | 09:38 |
| ikonia | it is not the answer | 09:38 |
| cfhowlett | OnceMe, do you work for vagrant or something?? | 09:38 |
| ikevin | aavrug, normally there a script to convert mysql database after upgrade | 09:38 |
| aavrug | ikonia, yea it is in MySQL5.7 even from 5.6 there are lot of changes and because of that something broken | 09:38 |
| aavrug | ikevin, what's that? | 09:39 |
| OnceMe | cfhowlett: yes | 09:39 |
| OnceMe | :D | 09:39 |
| aavrug | OnceMe, why I use vagrant? | 09:39 |
| Ben64 | aavrug: you don't, it's not a solution | 09:40 |
| aavrug | I don't think this is my solution | 09:40 |
| ikonia | aavrug: you need to understand what is cause the problems and if it's really "tables" that are broken | 09:40 |
| aavrug | Ben64, yea | 09:40 |
| vyddtu | Ben64: actually my ubuntu /var used to get filled. Tired of solving this problem am trying re-install. | 09:40 |
| ikevin | aavrug, what does mysql log said? | 09:40 |
| Ben64 | vyddtu: you'd probably have more luck solving the problem instead of reinstalling | 09:41 |
| aavrug | ikonia, I got the error and tried to fix that but still getting same error like there is a comparuison using ">" operator which is working fine in 5.5 but from 5.6 it is not working. Even I tried to convert my tables to utf8-general-cli but still not working | 09:41 |
| ikonia | you've just said things that don't make sense | 09:42 |
| ikonia | you have a comparison in the sql thats failing, so you convert your tables to utf8 ? | 09:42 |
| vyddtu | Ben64: i tried shifting /var to my my home director and making appropriate changes in fstab, but thats where i broke the system. it is working but shows errors. | 09:42 |
| Ben64 | vyddtu: why would you move /var to home??? | 09:43 |
| cfhowlett | vyddtu, wait, what? why? | 09:43 |
| aavrug | The table collation was latin-swedish-ci and I searched for the error I got that I have to change it to utf8... | 09:43 |
| ikevin | aavrug, ">" operator work fine in mysql 5.7 | 09:43 |
| ikonia | aavrug: the first thing I would suggest you do is make a clean note of the problems/errors, then talk to the #mysql channel to understand how to deal with them | 09:44 |
| ikonia | the problem isn't ubuntu, the problem is your application may need work to comply with the later mysql version | 09:44 |
| ikevin | aavrug, "select 2 > 1 ;" said what? | 09:44 |
| vyddtu | Ben64: My /var used to get filled and i was unable to install any more software when my root had much space. So i was suggested to merge /var with root partition and delete /var | 09:44 |
| aavrug | ikonia, 1 | 09:44 |
| vyddtu | cfhowlett: sorry merge /var to root i meant | 09:45 |
| cfhowlett | vyddtu, worst - advice - ever | 09:45 |
| ikevin | aavrug, it mean the operator work, maybe you have problem with rom type | 09:45 |
| vyddtu | cfhowlett: i was given this link to follow: http://askubuntu.com/questions/89105/how-do-i-relocate-on-my-ubuntu-moveable-directories-var-and-usr | 09:45 |
| aavrug | Btw I know it is MySQL related error but I have shortage of time that's why I was looking for a way to downgrade the MySQL version. | 09:45 |
| ikevin | row* | 09:45 |
| aavrug | But it seems there is no way to achieve that. | 09:46 |
| ikonia | aavrug: not going to happen | 09:46 |
| ikonia | aavrug: get everything documented and clear and talk to the experienced guys in #mysql | 09:46 |
| ikonia | aavrug: they will be your quickest path to sucess | 09:46 |
| aavrug | ok thanks | 09:46 |
| aavrug | yea I think so | 09:46 |
| ikonia | aavrug: you'll need to describe your problems clearly though | 09:47 |
| ikevin | aavrug, be sure you row are INT (or any numeric type) | 09:47 |
| aavrug | ok I'll check and thanks I'll take care of that. | 09:47 |

| g105b | More specifically, I know there are various tools around systemd (upstart, initd), and I wanted to make sure I have the terminology correct before googling. | 10:21 |

| CFIL | does anyone know of such a thing? | 10:22 |
| k1l_ | g105b: upstart and sysvinit are not tools around systemd, all 3 are init systems. | 10:22 |

| masami | hey, i'm new to Linux and i have question. What's the best way to copy *large* files from ubuntu computer to external hard drive? i guess ctrl-c and ctrl-v is not reliable. pls help. | 11:39 |
| cfhowlett | masami, the copy command is cp ... | 11:39 |
| masami | cfhowlett: do you know gui app for that? so that there's something like indicator to let me know when copying is finished | 11:40 |
| cfhowlett | masami, terminal time: man cp will give you all the details, but the --verbose option will display progress | 11:41 |
| k1l | masami: first look if your filesystem on the external hdd can make use of that big files (like 4gb limit on fat). then you can use the gui file explorer and use crtl+c and ctrl+v. but you can use rsync if you want to be very sure | 11:41 |
| k1l | masami: why do you think the file browser is not good for this? | 11:42 |
| masami | cfhowlett: i type terminal time: man cp on terminal? like that? | 11:43 |
| cfhowlett | masami, yep. | 11:43 |
| cfhowlett | first the dash >> terminal | 11:43 |
| cfhowlett | open the terminal and type man cp | 11:43 |
| masami | k1l: i just formatted a 4TB using gnome disk utility to encrypted (because i read it gives secutiry). what do you mean sorry? | 11:43 |
| masami | ..now it is a blank hard disk | 11:44 |
| k1l | masami: i ask why you think the gui copyprocess is not reliable. | 11:44 |
| trudko | Hello ;), what's going on with Ubuntu? I've been using Ubuntu Gnome since 16.04 (previous was using ElementaryOS and Ubuntu before that) and I am experiencing general unstabillity. I had to ignore at least 3 reported errors on startup ,I still have a problem of automatically switching fly mode on and off(i think this was also reported), audio isn't switched automatically when I plug in and out the headphones, suspend when I closed the l | 11:45 |
| trudko | problem is that twice during last week I got log out when I locked the screen(hopefully this is just temporally) , is this case of bad luck, me doing something really wrong or quality of Ubuntu isn't what it used to be ?.... | 11:46 |
| trudko | Really I need stable Linux Distro where I dont have to configure that much so I can focus on my work | 11:46 |
| BluesKaj | HI folks | 11:46 |

| ostekake | Hello! Trying to create a bash script to learn (task in a book) but I fail at the first part. I need to check weather a disk exists, I do this by checking for it in /dev/sd* (as it's not mounted) but my bash fails and can't see /dev/sdd even though it exists. https://hastebin.com/etajuhosed.bash | 11:54 |
| masami | ok i get it. thanks | 11:54 |
| ducasse | ostekake: try -b instead of -f | 11:56 |
| ostekake | ok trying thanks ducasse : ) | 11:57 |
| ostekake | thank you that worked ducasse! | 11:58 |
| ducasse | ostekake: /dev/sdd is not a regular file :) | 11:58 |
| ostekake | I noticed, but I thought I could treat it like a file any how as it's not a directory | 11:58 |
| ostekake | apparantly my view of files is too boolean | 11:59 |
| geirha | Also, use [[ ]] instead of [ ] for testing files, and printf instead of echo | 12:07 |

| OnceMe | how can I get rid of ppa-s? | 12:12 |

| OnceMe | where can I see lists of all ppa-s? | 12:14 |
| OnceMe | I want manually ot remove it | 12:14 |
| OnceMe | and should I remove apps I have installed via it? | 12:14 |
| ubottu | OnceMe: 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 | 12:14 |
| k1l | OnceMe: you better use ppa-purge since that removes the apps automatically | 12:14 |
| Tessargi | Can anyone tell me where are the settings for the „taskbar” are stored? I'm trying to modify the default shortcuts for guest-session | 12:17 |
| k1l | OnceMe: you can see the ppas when running "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d/" | 12:17 |

| Luv1 | Hi, I am new to Linux based Operating systems. I would like to know more about coding, primarily OSD. Can somebody help me. I know C and C++. | 13:00 |
| JFox762 | So ummm Im thinking of getting a 2nd hard drive to install onto my desktop pc (Which is basically my gaming workhorse) and install Ubuntu onto that 2nd Drive... | 13:00 |
| JFox762 | this is just to experiment with | 13:00 |
| JFox762 | how big a drive would you recommend? | 13:00 |
| JFox762 | Im new to linux | 13:00 |
| PradipW | Hello. | 13:00 |
| EriC^^ | JFox762: anything over 20gb will do | 13:01 |
| JFox762 | Would I find myself filling up that 2nd drive by *A LOT* | 13:01 |
| Legal | JFox762, 10TB, Helium seagate. But anything modern will do :) | 13:01 |
| aamutahti | JFox762, linux doesn't take much space, maybe 20GB with the OS and a bunch of applcications. Just depends on how much space you want for media | 13:01 |
| === PhilS_ is now known as Billtuer | ||
| JFox762 | well i plan to keep aall my games and media on my windows drive | 13:01 |
| k1l | JFox762: its up to you. minimum would be like 10-15GB | 13:01 |
| aamutahti | JFox762: you can access ntfs from linux | 13:02 |
| aamutahti | i.e your windows drive | 13:02 |
| JFox762 | Oh ok... so would a 500 gb hd last me a while? | 13:02 |
| aamutahti | yes absolutely | 13:02 |
| k1l | JFox762: the ubuntu systen uses around 10gb. the rest is the stuff you store on the hdd. | 13:02 |
| JFox762 | when Im booted into linux... | 13:03 |
| brunch875 | JFox762: I am using a 120GB ssd where I install everything | 13:03 |
| JFox762 | i can't affect the files on the windows drive... right? | 13:03 |
| brunch875 | JFox762: you can access the windows drive and edit it as you please | 13:03 |
| === Billtuer is now known as ThinkTeamwork | ||
| JFox762 | hmm ... so if i screw something up in linux | 13:03 |
| JFox762 | i can screw up my windows drivE? | 13:03 |
| k1l | JFox762: you can mount the windows partitions, yes. | 13:03 |
| JFox762 | brb... but feel free to answer... | 13:04 |
| brunch875 | JFox762: If you do something wild which breaks linux, it won't affect the windows partition, no | 13:04 |
| brunch875 | mostly | 13:04 |
| brunch875 | now then, you can always get in the windows partition and hit the delete key a couple of times while selecting folder | 13:05 |
| brunch875 | is that what you mean by screwup? | 13:05 |
| OlofL | tatertots: maybe soon :) if ubuntu supports it, does also kubuntu then? | 13:10 |
| EriC^^ | JFox762: if you run a command that uses root privileges you could screw it up big time | 13:10 |
| EriC^^ | especially stuff related to disks and partitioning | 13:11 |
| JFox762 | so is there a way to set up my partition... | 13:12 |
| Condor_Peregrino | Guys Im trying to format my encrypted internal HDD drive. I have already used the chown command to give me the attributes to doanything on the drive.The thing is I want to format it and doesnt let me | 13:12 |
| JFox762 | so that my Windows Drive HDD | 13:12 |
| JFox762 | and my Linux HDD... are completely separate | 13:12 |
| JFox762 | so that if I boot into linux Hdd | 13:12 |
| JFox762 | it can't access anything from the Windows HDD? | 13:12 |
| EriC^^ | so just don't run random stuff, and always see which name is in the command | 13:13 |
| JFox762 | not even see the partition? | 13:13 |
| Condor_Peregrino | all this started because I formatted my system from cero and now all the system is a little bit weird, small | 13:13 |
| Condor_Peregrino | why is this? | 13:13 |
| EriC^^ | like /dev/sda isn't the same as /dev/sda4 | 13:13 |
| EriC^^ | JFox762: yeah you can pass a parameter to the bootloader grub and it won't let linux see it at all | 13:13 |
| JFox762 | Ok... | 13:14 |
| tatertots | OlofL: yes | 13:14 |
| JFox762 | my ultimate goal, eventually, is two have 4 drives on my PC... I eventually want to take my current 1TB HDD, and replace it with a 2TB SSHD for my Windows.... and just migrate everything over to it | 13:15 |
| JFox762 | then my 1 TB, I will format it, and turn it into a linux hdd | 13:15 |
| JFox762 | and then.... | 13:15 |
| JFox762 | perhaps two drives of 1 TB each in a Raid 1 Config for stable storage of important documents, etc... | 13:16 |
| alkisg | JFox762: you can also use virtualbox to setup and test ubuntu in a virtual machine inside windows, without getting a new hard drive | 13:16 |
| JFox762 | I tried virtualbox... but it was sluggish | 13:16 |
| JFox762 | Which is crazy because my system is pretty decent | 13:16 |
| JFox762 | i5 4690k | 13:17 |
| alkisg | Did you give it 2 or 4 cores? | 13:17 |
| JFox762 | GTX 970 | 13:17 |
| JFox762 | and I think I have 16gb | 13:17 |
| JFox762 | I have no idea | 13:17 |
| JFox762 | Im not on my desktop | 13:17 |
| alkisg | The default is to be single core, that's one of the reasons it would be sluggish | 13:17 |
| alkisg | The other would be "no client graphics drivers" | 13:17 |

| ikonia | JFox762: no problem | 13:51 |
| RxMcDonald | ikonia: It keeps computing but I need to compute something else | 13:51 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: explain the problem "it's computing" means nothing | 13:51 |
| ic3cdr | Hi | 13:52 |
| RxMcDonald | ikonia: the CPU keeps going and going and I need to compute other things | 13:52 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: what is it being used by | 13:52 |
| RxMcDonald | ikonia: Ubuntu keeps computing and i can't do anything It's computing with the CPU | 13:53 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: what is using the cpu | 13:53 |
| RxMcDonald | ikonia: Ubuntu | 13:53 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: no it's not | 13:53 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: what process is using the cpu | 13:53 |
| RxMcDonald | Ubuntu keeps computing, I can't do anything | 13:54 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: how do you know this | 13:54 |
| ikonia | how do you know it's "computing" | 13:54 |
| RxMcDonald | Because I can see the computer CPU with a green light in front of it | 13:55 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: sorry, I'm not accepting this as a diagnosis | 13:55 |
| RxMcDonald | It is flashing very fast so it's still computing | 13:55 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: lets start from the begining, what version of ubuntu is this | 13:55 |
| theptr | Does anybody know a good chat client for ubuntu ? I want to use if possible facebook messenger irc and whatsapp in 1 client :) | 13:55 |
| ikonia | theptr: you'll be dissapointed then | 13:56 |
| RxMcDonald | ubuntu 6.10 | 13:56 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: then it's not supported | 13:56 |
| theptr | ikonia, is it not possible ? | 13:56 |
| geirha | Hopefully you accidentally left out the leading 1 there | 13:56 |
| RxMcDonald | ikonia: ok how do I add more ubuntu in the CPU? | 13:56 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: sorry - we don't support ubuntu 6.10 here | 13:56 |
| ikonia | it's an end of life distirbution | 13:57 |
| RxMcDonald | ikonia: tell me how to increase the ubuntu in the CPU please | 13:57 |
| ikonia | and I've got to be honest, I think this is a "troll" question | 13:57 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: no, 6.10 is end of life | 13:57 |
| RxMcDonald | yes but how do I increase the ubuntu? | 13:57 |
| ikonia | as if any cpu has a flashing light on the mother board to show how hard its working | 13:57 |
| ikonia | RxMcDonald: discussion over, your distribution is not supported, | 13:57 |
| RxMcDonald | but I want to increase ubuntu to supported CPU | 13:58 |

| Condor_peregrino | guys I have reinstall my systema and all the installation process has been very complicated. Now all that is installation doesnt work or works slowly | 14:10 |
| Condor_peregrino | why can this be? | 14:10 |
| ikonia | define doesn't work please Condor_peregrino | 14:10 |
| Condor_peregrino | ikonia: for example I want to install the "Terminator" terminal. I did a successful installation through the terminal without any problem. Then I try to open it from Ubuntu menu and it tries to open but nothing happens. Then I run the command "Terminator" form the terminal and it works awesome. That happens with many packages that Im trying to install | 14:17 |
| ikonia | Condor_peregrino: thats not being slow | 14:18 |
| ikonia | Condor_peregrino: that suggests to me the place you're installing to is not in the desktops path/location aware, so it can't open the applications | 14:19 |

| Taxicletter | I'm on Xubuntu and I have an external USB drive, FAT, with my music on it. | 14:25 |

| Taxicletter | With read/write permissions. The group is also my name, but only read permissions. I try to change that in the property window, but that doesn't work... | 14:27 |
| Taxicletter | SO, blocky... can you help? :-) | 14:27 |
| BluesKaj | Taxicletter, do you have the drive UUID entered in /etc/fstab? | 14:27 |
| Taxicletter | I don't think so, I didn't do that anyway. | 14:29 |
| yeeve | Anyone in chat using VOIP softphone software for their PC? I tried to setup our windows version using wine/mono but although it installs when I load it I just get a black app window and high CPU usage | 14:31 |
| ikonia | use a native linux one | 14:31 |
| yeeve | Any recommendations? | 14:32 |
| Taxicletter | In fstab is only my harddrive, it says to use blkid and than I have it there:"/dev/sdc1: LABEL="MUZIK" UUID="192F-1717" TYPE="vfat" | 14:32 |
| Taxicletter | " | 14:32 |
| ikonia | doesn't the astrix client support softphone ? | 14:32 |
| yeeve | ikonia, I'm new to this, don't know about astrix but the windows one is 3CX, | 14:32 |
| ikonia | yeeve: look up astrix | 14:33 |
| ikonia | yeeve: see if the client does enough of what you want | 14:33 |
| Pici | *asterisk | 14:33 |
| Condor_peregrino | ikonia: I agree, how can I fix this?. How can I detect what is real problem? | 14:34 |
| ikonia | thanks Pici | 14:34 |
| ikonia | Condor_peregrino: I'd look at the programs you are installing them. how you are installing them, then research how to setup unitys desktop to be aware of those locations | 14:34 |
| yeeve | Can't seem to find astrix/asterisk clients but there is a lot of recommendations for Ekiga so I'll start there | 14:34 |
| hateball | yeeve: what you want is a SIP client, and Ekiga is one | 14:35 |
| Condor_peregrino | ikonia: all the programs has been installed from Ubuntu software center, thats why I have this doubts. They should be installed correctly with no problem or not? | 14:35 |
| BluesKaj | Taxicletter, for example here's my outboard sata drive entry in /etc/fstab : UUID=b56bb1a6-e887-4383-aaeb-e9ad50d34f47 /media/kaj ext4 defaults 0 1 | 14:35 |
| yeeve | I see hateball thanks for the clarification :) pretty new to this stuff | 14:35 |
| Condor_peregrino | ikonia: should I use my SSD for all the programs and the storage on the HDD? | 14:35 |
| === Menzie607 is now known as Menzador | ||
| Condor_peregrino | ikonia: both disks are encrypted | 14:35 |
| Taxicletter | @BluesKaj this is what mount gives about that drive: /dev/sdc1 on /media/jonathan/MUZIK type vfat (ro,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,showexec,utf8,flush,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks2) | 14:36 |
| hateball | yeeve: and well, your voip solution needs to use standards of course, so you dont in fact have to use some combo of a particular proprietary client | 14:36 |
| ikonia | Condor_peregrino: you don't normally get a choice the installer will install in common locations (eg: /usr/bin) it's up to you if you use the ssd for that or not | 14:37 |

| yeeve | I thought as much hateball but I had to try the windows client first to please management, it does't work so now I'll look for a native linux client which will fit our needs. Do you have any recommendations? Ekiga has poor reviews in SoftCent but I'm still happy to try it out | 14:37 |

| OerHeks | yakiza, why don't you start with the 16.10?? | 16:22 |
| yakiza | i did this | 16:22 |
| yakiza | http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/05/install-linux-kernel-4-6-ubuntu-16-04/ | 16:22 |
| bonsaitree | Why the *main* software repository is not present in the sources.list file? I have restricted, universe and multiverse, but *main* is not present. Thanks in advance. | 16:22 |
| k1l | that is a bad howto. | 16:23 |
| yakiza | cause i have loads of things installed and i need my internet cause i have some deadlines for 2 of my projects comming up and i dont have time to set up a new system | 16:23 |
| k1l | yakiza: ubuntu ships the 4.8 kernel from 16.10 in the official repos. | 16:23 |
| X_asdasd | Any way to install google chrome on 32-bit lubuntu ? | 16:23 |
| yakiza | k1l here ? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.10-rc1/ | 16:23 |
| k1l | bonsaitree: maybe you clicked that away in the system settings? | 16:24 |
| k1l | yakiza: no, that is the mainline kernel. they are missing a lot of ubuntu service | 16:24 |
| OerHeks | yakiza, curious, how did you install any software if you needed a newer kernel for networking, and that kernel never worked?? | 16:24 |
| k1l | !hwe | yakiza | 16:24 |
| ubottu | yakiza: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 16:24 |
| ducasse | X_asdasd: try chromium instead | 16:24 |
| charlie_sanders | X_asdasd, sure | 16:24 |
| k1l | X_asdasd: there is no 32bit chrome anymore. | 16:24 |
| X_asdasd | ohh shiit :/ | 16:25 |
| yakiza | OerHeks: i just changed my motherboard i didnt install anything i changed motherboard see that ethernet doesnt work research i saw that it was kernels problem and i download with y phone the new kernel to install | 16:25 |
| yakiza | ubottu: but i have to download it i cant do it like this cause my machine doesnt have intent | 16:27 |
| ubottu | yakiza: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 16:27 |
| yakiza | k1l what do you mean !hwe? | 16:28 |
| k1l | yakiza: see the bots message and link. there is a backports kernel from 16.10 to 16.04 that has support by ubuntu. | 16:28 |

| yakiza | k1l dont i nned to download .deb files? | 16:30 |
| yakiza | ducasse tehter? | 16:31 |
| ducasse | yakiza: connect with usb cable | 16:31 |
| yakiza | ducasse: i download the files to my phone then i pass it to my pc with usb i just dotn understand what file to download | 16:32 |
| ioria | yakiza, we told you weeks ago to install 16.10 . why you haven't done that ? now you need to reboot on the that 4.6 kernel, and if ethernet works, install from the console the 16.10 kernel and xorg (maybe first purge your nvidia) | 16:33 |
| yakiza | ioria i know man well reall life reasons no time... i purged nvidia i just need to install newer kernel | 16:34 |
| bismark | i want to install openstack using conjure-up, but i want to do it using a 300 GB partition | 16:34 |

| ioria | yakiza, reboot on 4.6 .... on that network works, right ? | 16:34 |
| bonsaitree | k1l:Isn't the *main* software repository the most important one which brings you the updates directly from Canonical? I think i haven't clicked that away, are you able to help me get that back? | 16:34 |
| bismark | where should i have to mount that partition? | 16:34 |
| yakiza | i dont have 4.6 | 16:34 |
| yakiza | i just have 4.4 | 16:34 |
| ioria | yakiza, sorry, haven't you install another kernel from mainline ppa ? | 16:35 |
| ioria | *ed | 16:35 |
| yakiza | i installed 4.10 but i get stuck in log in loop | 16:35 |
| yakiza | ioria | 16:35 |
| ioria | yakiza, can you boot with that kernel from grub ? | 16:36 |
| nacc | bonsaitree: main doesn't get updates, generally, fwiw -- it's the release archive, though | 16:36 |
| yakiza | yes give me a sec ioria | 16:36 |
| ioria | yakiza, if yes, just open a console | 16:36 |
| yakiza | ok | 16:36 |

| yakiza1 | ioria i can ping | 16:40 |
| ioria | yakiza, ok, so we want to install the 16.10 kernel and xorg ? | 16:41 |
| yakiza1 | ioria yes but i dont want to loose filea | 16:41 |
| yakiza1 | ioria if i can only upgrade just the kernel would be so nice | 16:42 |
| ioria | yakiza, no, you can't upgrade ... you need to install a different package | 16:42 |
| k1l | the hwe stack, to be precisse | 16:42 |
| ioria | yakiza, linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04 | 16:42 |
| yakiza1 | i write w gwt to that? ioria | 16:43 |
| yakiza1 | wget | 16:43 |
| k1l | yakiza1: no, not wget | 16:43 |
| ioria | yakiza, wait, first purge nvidia sudo apt purge nvidia | 16:43 |
| ioria | yakiza, wait, first purge nvidia sudo apt purge nvidia* | 16:43 |
| yakiza1 | ioria but nvidia in 16.04 works fine should i do it anyway? ioria | 16:44 |
| k1l | yakiza1: use apt to install official pacakges. "sudo apt install packagename" so it loads it from the repos and installs it. | 16:44 |
| ioria | yakiza, how did you install nvidia ? | 16:44 |
| ioria | yakiza, from ppa , from the official repo ? | 16:45 |
| yakiza1 | from linux proprietary drivera i had done it with wifi usb | 16:45 |
| ioria | yakiza, f | 16:45 |
| yakiza1 | ioria f? | 16:45 |
| ioria | yakiza, if you ask me, you need to unistall that | 16:45 |
| ioria | yakiza, if you want we can proced anyways | 16:46 |
| yakiza1 | ok ok so i purge nvidia? i am just frustrated ioria | 16:46 |
| ioria | yakiza, you used the nvidia installer ? | 16:46 |
| yakiza1 | no i went to additional drivers and from there i selected the ones i need and it worked | 16:47 |
| ioria | yakiza, ok... sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04 | 16:48 |
| yakiza1 | i will do what you say i purged nvidia now ? ioria | 16:48 |
| ioria | yakiza, we'll see later run this, sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04 | 16:48 |

| ioria | yakiza, already done ? | 16:53 |
| yakiza1 | yes | 16:53 |
| ioria | yakiza, so, reboot (from grub) with the 4.8.0.xx kernel | 16:54 |
| ioria | yakiza, sudo reboot | 16:54 |
| yakiza1 | ok | 16:55 |

| egonsen | hi. systemd does not start lightdm (ubuntu 16.10). it shows the black/white login screen (tty). when i login there andn enter "$ sudo lightdm", lightdm is started normally. how can i solve this? i want lightdm to start after boot | 17:00 |
| ioria | yakiza, it's ok, mate ? | 17:00 |
| yakiza1 | yes i am in | 17:00 |
| ioria | yakiza, good job, but now you need to remove (purge) that 4.10 kernel | 17:01 |
| ioria | yakiza, dpkg -l | grep linux-image | grep ii | pastebinit | 17:01 |

| k1l | egonsen: what happened before? did you change anything? | 17:02 |
| egonsen | k1l, i cannot remember. i think i changed something many weeks ago (the last time i used ubuntu) | 17:05 |
| k1l | egonsen: changed what? like setting the boot to multiuser.target? | 17:05 |

| ioria | yakiza, i think 4.10 is on top of the grub list, so you'll automatically boot that... we want to remove that kernel ? | 17:05 |
| yakiza | yes ioria | 17:05 |
| ioria | yakiza, sudo apt purge linux-image-4.10.0-041000rc1-generic and paste the errors, in case | 17:05 |

| kostkon | jarlath, install pavucontrol and set the monitor of your sound card as the input device for discource | 17:06 |

| ubuntly | hi | 19:18 |
| ubuntly | So I tried to use user "admin" in Ubuntu setup - but it is denied as a reserved username. | 19:19 |
| ubuntly | I can create an user admin later though - and there are no negative effects... | 19:19 |
| ubuntly | so this is more a relict/purist thing? | 19:19 |
| Pici | ubuntly: its likely because there is already an admin group, and it doesn't want you to mess with that. | 19:20 |
| scottjl | because there already is an "admin" account | 19:20 |
| Pici | Users in the admin group are the ones who are allowed to use the sudo command. | 19:20 |
| ubuntly | right | 19:20 |
| ubuntly | and exactly that I want | 19:21 |
| ubuntly | well, I will pick a different user name then | 19:21 |
| ubuntly | what is a good username for the "normal" user in Ubuntu setup - except admin of course? | 19:21 |
| ubuntly | "notroot"? :D | 19:21 |
| scottjl | their name | 19:21 |
| Pici | ubuntly: Your first user already gets put into the admin group. | 19:21 |
| ubuntly | I want it more generic | 19:21 |
| scottjl | user ? | 19:21 |
| ubuntly | hmm, user, why not | 19:21 |
| ubuntly | but that user is in admin group | 19:21 |
| ubuntly | so it is an important user | 19:21 |
| ubuntly | sudouser? | 19:21 |
| ubuntly | superuser? | 19:21 |
| Pici | its up to you. | 19:22 |
| ubuntly | suser? | 19:22 |
| === andreas is now known as Guest57489 | ||
| elias_a | ubuntly: Use "dickhead" or "totalmess". Nobody wants to use those accounts without real need. :P | 19:22 |
| scottjl | useraccount, someuser, generic | 19:22 |
| scottjl | though if this is a multi-user system, you really ought to use real names | 19:22 |
| w9qbj | pick a name not close the the namespace for administratiors of any app. make to be less confusing | 19:23 |
| ubuntly | elias_a: right,I will use admin as sudo user - later then when the server is provisioned after setup. | 19:24 |
| BluesKaj | oh lord, just use a derivative of your own name | 19:24 |
| ubuntly | ok | 19:24 |
| unstablevet | can anyone help an ubuntu studio with a hp pavilion dv6000 access the webcam | 19:24 |
| w9qbj | there is already many *admin* users, groups, directories( folders) and processes. | 19:24 |
| w9qbj | why make life dificult | 19:25 |
| ubuntly | OK, so summarize this: The Normal user account created by Ubuntu Setup is also able to sudo by default, is that right? | 19:25 |
| scottjl | yes | 19:26 |
| k1l | ubuntly: yes. | 19:26 |
| ubuntly | thanks. | 19:26 |
| k1l | ubuntly: and every new user beeing put in the sudo group can use sudo too. | 19:26 |
| scottjl | the normal user account created by setup is given admin priviledges because you have to start out with someone being admin. | 19:26 |
| ubuntly | right | 19:26 |
| ubuntly | I could even delete that user after the setup and add my own crazy user stuff? | 19:27 |
| ubuntly | good | 19:27 |
| scottjl | because ubuntu locks direct root login by default | 19:27 |
| Ben64 | ubuntly: but why | 19:27 |
| scottjl | if you delete that use without setting up another account with admin you will basically lock yourself out of admin | 19:27 |
| ubuntly | Ben64: because the server will be provisioned automatically, admin, users are added with keys, etc | 19:27 |
| ubuntly | I just want the setup to be over :) | 19:27 |
| ubuntly | I will call it "suser" now :O | 19:28 |

| ubuntly | wtf lol | 19:43 |
| ubuntly | I found it somehow funny XD | 19:43 |
| baizon | no, it was just stupid | 19:43 |
| ubuntly | OK, it is intended that the Ubuntu setup doesn't ask me for a root password - because I should use that user to sudo/su to root, right? | 19:44 |
| k1l | ubuntly: yes | 19:44 |
| k1l | !root | ubuntly | 19:44 |
| ubottu | ubuntly: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 19:44 |
| ubuntly | ah, much better | 19:44 |
| ubuntly | the first I always did (in older debians) was to get rid of root for a sudo user :) then it makes sense | 19:44 |
| k1l | this is a basic concept of ubuntu. | 19:45 |

| ppedro | i wast just apeing the fellow who spammed here before :P | 19:49 |
| OerHeks | ppedro, don't make fun of lonely people. | 19:49 |
| OerHeks | :-D | 19:49 |
| ppedro | :D | 19:49 |
| OerHeks | lets move on with support. | 19:49 |
| ppedro | you are right, sorry | 19:49 |
| ubuntly | now I decided to user "superuser" instead "suser" - it looks better | 19:50 |
| ppedro | seems like youre solving some big problems | 19:51 |
| BluesKaj | it's not as if he called some one else by that pc-incorrect word | 19:51 |
| ppedro | I am not so experienced with Unix, but I find it silly to disable root and just have sudo ;i | 19:53 |
| k1l | ppedro: even windows made something similar with their admin setup. its not a silly approach | 19:54 |
| nicomachus | ppedro: commentary not necessary. | 19:54 |
| ppedro | :D thanks k1l and nicomachus | 19:54 |
| ppedro | It was more a conversation opener | 19:54 |
| Th3_ghost | ppedro: is not silly, it is for security | 19:54 |
| ppedro | Th3_ghost: security in what sense? | 19:54 |
| scottjl | ppedro: it's to foster better security habits. one should avoid logging directly in as root if possible. | 19:54 |
| tgm4883 | also, this channel isn't for conversation. That would be #ubuntu-discuss | 19:54 |
| ppedro | I mean, if you have a root account (with the same password) and a sudo account (<- with the same password), what is the gain in security? | 19:55 |
| ppedro | tgm4883: ah, the hierarchy has beaten me, bye bye. | 19:55 |
| dannyLopez | Can help me with a DB problem? | 19:56 |
| tgm4883 | dannyLopez: not unless you tell us the problem... | 19:56 |

| tgm4883 | Th3_ghost: he's gone | 19:57 |
| dannyLopez | Jajaja tgm4883 I think the support is only in Ubuntu. :O | 19:57 |
| scottjl | tgm: can't discuss in here but can solve database issues? | 19:57 |
| tgm4883 | scottjl: well this is a support channel... | 19:58 |
| Th3_ghost | so what can we do here? | 19:58 |
| Toggi3 | Ubuntu, because some of us live in a Debian world and want long term releases, and either don't have the luxury of using, or do not wish to use, red hat and co. ;p | 19:58 |

| tgm4883 | Toggi3: off topic | 19:58 |

| === bonfire_ is now known as bonfire | ||
| tgm4883 | dannyLopez: you'll probably have to reach out to the DHIS2 people for that since it's a unique package that not a lot of people run, and it's not even in the repositories | 20:02 |
| dannyLopez | But the comand is not of the program. | 20:03 |
| ubuntly | hi | 20:03 |
| ubuntly | My hoster only offers Ubuntu 14.04 ISO - can I easily upgrade to 16.04? Fresh installation, so there is not much to be migrated? | 20:03 |
| dannyLopez | I mean, exist any way to delet a rol created whit createuser -SDRP dhis | 20:04 |
| tgm4883 | dannyLopez: ah it's a postgres db command | 20:04 |
| ubuntly | When I upgrade a fresh 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS, there won't be a performance penalty because the apt package manager handles all this usually perfectly? | 20:05 |
| scottjl | ubuntly: a 14.04->16.04 upgrade is not equal to a fresh 16.04 install. but it's close. | 20:06 |
| ubuntly | scottjl: why not equal? what will be different? more clutter? | 20:07 |
| scottjl | yes | 20:07 |
| genii | ubuntly: If you have many PPAs it can be a pain, depending on what they are | 20:07 |
| scottjl | but there is nothing wrong with running a 14.04 lts install right now. | 20:07 |
| scottjl | genii: he said a fresh install | 20:08 |
| genii | scottjl: Ah, missed that :) | 20:09 |
| scottjl | ubuntly: you have about 2 more years of support for 14.04 lts. | 20:09 |
| genii | ubuntly: Fresh install 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS upgrade rarely gives problems | 20:09 |
| ubuntly | I see | 20:10 |
| ubuntly | ok, I found my hoster also offers a minimal image with 16.04 - it is not a clean install but it will only contain minimal packages | 20:11 |
| ubuntly | that's what I want | 20:11 |
| ubuntly | otherwise the ansible provisioning will fail because there are already packages in place that can't be just removed | 20:11 |
| mario__ | Hello, can I ask a question of Ubuntu? I'm a new user.. | 20:12 |
| OerHeks | hi mario__, shoot! | 20:12 |
| genii | mario__: Yes, just state your question and someone should reply | 20:12 |
| ubuntly | so Ubuntu Landscape offers kernel upgrading without restart, right? Among some other auto upgrade stuff? | 20:13 |
| mario__ | Maybe this question has been asked a lot, I'm learning now. I have an old netbook with An ATOM processor, 1GB of RAM, and I am trying to guess which version of Linux or Ubuntu is better to install on this device | 20:13 |
| OerHeks | ubuntly, yes, live patching, but the kernel only | 20:13 |
| ubuntly | OerHeks: and this live patching costs money at some scale because the Landscape team has to prepare the normal Linux kernel upgrade for a live upgrade? | 20:14 |
| mario__ | I am thinking on MATE, but I'm not sure if it's the best option. Thanks in advance. | 20:14 |
| OerHeks | mario__, xubuntu/mate or lightweight Lubuntu/openbox | 20:14 |
| ubuntly | OerHeks: or is there some proprietary, non opensource tech involved? | 20:14 |
| ubuntly | >> Why does Landscape service cost? Could one prepare the linux kernel upgrades also with an opensource tool (also taking the risks ofc)? | 20:16 |
| OerHeks | ubuntly, yes, it is a canonical prop thingy, Dustin wrote a nice Q&A http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2016/10/canonical-livepatch.html | 20:16 |
| mario__ | I will try xubuntu/mate then, thank you a lot guys :) | 20:16 |
| lol768 | I'm pretty sure it just uses kpatch | 20:16 |
| OerHeks | see "Q: How does this compare to Oracle Ksplice, RHEL Live Patching and SUSE Live Patching?" | 20:16 |
| ubuntly | and there are no OpenSource LivePatches now? :) | 20:16 |
| OerHeks | kslice, but unsupported AFAIK | 20:17 |
| ubuntly | I see | 20:17 |
| ubuntly | probably too much to invest for a truly opensource solution | 20:17 |
| ubuntly | maybe when the kernel team itself decides to make one? | 20:17 |
| dannyLopez | tgm4883: Yes, is a postgres db | 20:17 |
| stratocastorNM | Hello everybody! | 20:19 |
| ZeptoByte | Hello :) I really need help getting grub2 to work again.. Can someone help me? | 20:22 |
| diogenes_ | ZeptoByte, what's wrong with your grub? | 20:24 |
| ZeptoByte | I moved the ubuntu partition to make it bigger, and now grub wont start.. And I have deleted all of the content of the /boot folder | 20:26 |
| shazzr | Weird thing....if I use debian on my laptop it starts much faster than if I use ubuntu. How can I check what takes so much time? | 20:26 |
| diogenes_ | how are you chatting here? | 20:26 |
| k1l | ubuntly: the service used for the kernel upgrades is livepatching. and yes you can do it on your own if you want. but 3 machines are for free from canonical service | 20:27 |
| diogenes_ | shazzr, run systemd-analyze blame | 20:27 |
| k1l | ubuntly: http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2016/10/canonical-livepatch.html | 20:27 |
| scottjl | ZeptoByte: You've pretty much hosed your system deleting /boot | 20:29 |
| shazzr | diogenes_: apparmor.service, 21.8 s, and plymouth-read-write.service, 21.7 s. Can I disable them in any way? | 20:29 |
| diogenes_ | shazzr, first google and read the documentation | 20:30 |
| ubuntly | k1l: three for free? cool! I guess even for commercial use, etc - great! | 20:30 |
| ZeptoByte | @scottjl, I can't somehow reinstall it from a live usb? | 20:30 |
| OerHeks | ubuntulog2, actually, if you are a developer with ubuntu, contact them ;-) | 20:30 |
| k1l | ubuntly: see that blogpost with that faq | 20:31 |
| ngochai | hi guys, how do I disable console on framebuffer device and keep the framebuffer device (/dev/fb*) | 20:32 |
| scottjl | ZeptoBte: You can but it wouldn't be an easy process. Unless you needed that exact install, better off booting from live, backing up data, and reinstalling. | 20:32 |
| dannyLopez | OerHeks: Im not dev, Im a simple user and just follow a tutorial | 20:32 |
| anddam | while creating a backup using the Backup panel in System Settings I get a "Backup Failed - Permission denied" | 20:32 |
| diogenes_ | ZeptoByte, http://pastebin.com/WxequHSj | 20:32 |
| stratocastorNM | Anyone here install folding at home on Ubuntu? | 20:32 |
| anddam | I used a SSH storage location, specifying the server, the folder and the username (same as my user on this system) | 20:33 |
| ZeptoByte | Thank you @diogenes, I will try that | 20:33 |
| anddam | where can I read a more detailed log of what's failing? | 20:34 |
| diogenes_ | ZeptoByte, good luck | 20:34 |
| ZeptoByte | diognes_, it didn't work.. I've posted the output here http://pastebin.com/vptnfckQ | 20:40 |
| diogenes_ | ZeptoByte, you're in trouble, reinstalling is way to gpo | 20:41 |
| diogenes_ | go* | 20:41 |

| AnonyL35 | hello | 20:51 |
| anddam | does Unity support having different Universal Access rules for different displays? | 20:56 |
| caimlas | ducasse, so, related to the issue I mentioned earlier about systemd falling over... there's more information now, but I'm not sure how to proceed further from this: http://pastebin.com/i7cs1TJ4 | 20:57 |
| Aremis117 | anddam | What are you trying to do | 20:58 |
| Aremis117 | Do you want one display to be dedicated to magnify? | 20:58 |
| caimlas | ducasse, was hoping you might have some input on what to investigate, short of the core, of why it's falling over. | 21:00 |
| Aremis117 | caimlas | Whats going on? | 21:01 |
| caimlas | Aremis117, systemd-udevd is falling over (seemingly) randomly on a 16.04.02 VM, as is pretty much the whole of everything else related to systemd. It may be by my own doing, but I am not certain what as of yet. | 21:02 |
| caimlas | systemd being what it is, and not terribly robust, doesn't appear to provide sufficient log data for diagnosis. | 21:02 |
| Aremis117 | Try OpenRC | 21:05 |
| anddam | Aremis117: I have a 13" 1080p where I use Large Text setting, when I connect the external display, 1080p but 23", I'd like that to not have large text | 21:05 |
| the_ktosiek | Ugh, I'm seeing Ubuntu switching to another VT on Alt+Left / Alt+Right. Is that a new thing? | 21:06 |
| the_ktosiek | I'm pretty sure Alt+Left wasn't doing this (I'm using this shortcut a lot in the browser) | 21:06 |
| Aremis117 | anddam | There should be something in options for unity to treat every display individually. Thought I use mate and haven't played with unity in a long time. Its in the same menu as having the side bar on every screen though. | 21:08 |
| anddam | Aremis117: I figure I get the panel | 21:09 |
| anddam | btw anything about having more verbose output from deja-dup? | 21:09 |
| anddam | my user can ssh into the configured ssh host, and I have my pub key in remote authorized | 21:09 |
| anddam | also my remote user can write in the target folder | 21:09 |
| anddam | I tried running it manually but it doesn't have a --verbose, and DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 suggested at http://askubuntu.com/a/191003 has no (apparent) effect | 21:11 |
| anddam | I tried env DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 deja-dup --backup | 21:11 |
| anddam | I expected some more output in CLI but I just got the gtk window with "permission denied" displayed | 21:11 |
| anddam | ~/.cache/deja-dup is empty | 21:12 |
| Aremis117 | anddam | Theres also features like the OSX style magnify stuff that you could use 9IE hold cntrl + alt + mousewheel up or down to zoom in). | 21:12 |
| anddam | Aremis117: oh that's nice, I used to use that quite often on macos | 21:13 |
| pavlos | ZeptoByte, I thought you were trying to recover the existing system, hence the link | 21:14 |
| ZeptoByte | pavlos, Yeah I was, but it didn't look like I could get it to work again :/ Anyways now i'm reinstalling the system | 21:17 |
| pavlos | ZeptoByte, ok | 21:17 |
| Aremis117 | anddam | Yeah there should be something like that available to you.p | 21:17 |
| ZeptoByte | I didn't loose any important data. I just need to use some time, setting everything up again.. | 21:18 |
| ZeptoByte | But thank you so much for your help, anyways. pavlos | 21:18 |
| pavlos | ZeptoByte, np | 21:19 |
| ZeptoByte | I | 21:19 |
| ZeptoByte | I've always been suprised, of how nice the ubuntu community is. ;) | 21:20 |
| anddam | Aremis117: the Screen Display pane, the one that allows you to say "put dock in all monitors", cannot split Universal Access, it can only switch between mirroring and split screen | 21:21 |
| anddam | Aremis117: but the Universal Access setting will be global | 21:21 |
| RedPenguin | hello all | 21:23 |
| RedPenguin | I know of cron for scheduled tasks, but is there any thing similar to Windows's Task Scheduler to run a GUI/bash script, I can see open up in a terminal and see in foreground vs background? | 21:23 |
| Aremis117 | anddam | I remember something like enabling one screen for accessibility options or something like that. Maybe I'm just thinking of the 12.04 beta :\ | 21:24 |
| Aremis117 | Sorry | 21:24 |
| anddam | oh damn, I typed in a wrong path, that's why deja-dup wasn't working | 21:25 |
| anddam | Aremis117: np, thanks for the info | 21:25 |
| anddam | how can I add a dot folder in a Gtk file dialog? | 21:26 |
| anddam | nvm, right click "show hidden files" | 21:27 |
| OerHeks | ctrl H | 21:27 |
| anddam | I'd like to be able to type in a path tho', is there such a thing in Gtk's file dialog? | 21:27 |

| anddam | I have an actual problem with CUPS and Broterh MFC-250C printer (multifunction inkjet) | 21:36 |
| anddam | I installed lpr and CUPS wrapper deb packages from manufacturer, CUPS correctly recognizes the USB printer and assign the proper driver, but then jobs are simply accepted and immediately marked as completed but the printer doesn't do a thing | 21:37 |
| anddam | I don't know where to get more info | 21:37 |
| nacc | anddam: if you are using debs from the mfr, probably from them | 21:37 |
| anddam | I mean from logs or so,there are no issues or error in CUPS logs | 21:38 |
| unstablevet | when i use lsusb i cant see my integrated webcam what do i need to do from there? | 21:38 |
| anddam | nacc: pfff, I figure it's magnificent on their side already to even have bothered about providing those in first place | 21:38 |
| nacc | anddam: or just use a printer that works with linux | 21:38 |
| anddam | nacc: trying to be smart, with wise suggestions? | 21:39 |
| nacc | anddam: if cups isn't logging anything, then i'm not sure if it's not the printer or driver | 21:39 |
| nacc | anddam: at which point, you'd need to ask the driver author for how to debug | 21:39 |
| anddam | nacc: nothing that I can see, I checked the logs from web ui | 21:39 |
| anddam | anyway, I'll try again tomorrow, I'm tired now | 21:39 |
| anddam | thanks for the attention anyway | 21:40 |

| Pici | Simonious: You're not meant to replace the keyserver name in the command, try with just keyserver.ubuntu.com | 21:45 |
| Simonious | ooo, that looks better! | 21:46 |
| Kazuto | I feel like my whole VPS is exploding. Every time I try to update my packages, I get told “Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1),” each sudo command tells me my hostname refuses connection, and ZNC can't read my config. Where the hell do I start troubleshooting? | 21:51 |
| nacc | Kazuto: pastebin the first case (full command all the output) | 21:53 |
| lafleurdubien | does anyone here have experience writing tutorials for Digital Ocean? | 21:54 |
| Kazuto | nacc: Including the update output? | 21:54 |
| nacc | lafleurdubien: doesn't seem topical for this channel? maybe #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:54 |
| nacc | Kazuto: probably doesn't hurt, but I was mostly interested in the comamnd that leads to the error | 21:54 |
| Kazuto | nacc: `sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` | 21:55 |
| Kazuto | I'll get the full output in a sec | 21:56 |
| nacc | Kazuto: ok | 21:56 |
| unstablevet | can someone assist me please | 21:57 |
| Kazuto | nacc: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24086554/ | 21:57 |
| kalwnau | t | 21:59 |
| nacc | Kazuto: wow, have you not updated in some time? | 22:01 |
| Kazuto | nacc: Yeah, I know, it's been about two months | 22:02 |
| nacc | Kazuto: that's terrible, for it's own reason | 22:02 |
| nacc | Kazuto: esp. in a droplet, which means you're 100% insecure | 22:02 |
| nacc | Kazuto: but whatever, that paste doesn't have the relevant output | 22:02 |
| Kazuto | That's the only output though | 22:02 |
| nacc | Kazuto: did you use pastebinit? | 22:02 |
| Kazuto | Pastebinit? | 22:02 |
| nacc | Kazuto: oh i see, it just put it in the middle, sorry | 22:02 |
| nacc | Kazuto: seems suspicious that it's around package 1000 | 22:03 |
| nacc | Kazuto: have you tried using `apt` rather than `apt-get`? `apt update; apt full-upgrade`. Just curious if it's a tooling issue | 22:03 |
| Kazuto | I'll try it | 22:03 |
| Bashing-om | unstablevet: No help until the issue is known, state the problem . | 22:03 |
| unstablevet | i cant seem to find my integrated webcam when i use lsusb or lspci I'm not sure where to go from there | 22:04 |
| Kazuto | nacc: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24086583/ | 22:04 |
| nacc | Kazuto: ok, run `sudo apt-get -f install` | 22:05 |
| Bashing-om | unstablevet: I would run ' tail -f /var/log/syslog ' in terminal and see if the system picks up when the cam is connected . | 22:05 |
| Kazuto | nacc: Running now | 22:06 |

| LVDSXorg | Hi, I installed 16.04 on an older laptop that has RS880M graphics card, and I know current xorg doesn't support it. Is this the reason why my display resolution is stuck at 1600x900 ? I tried added undetected resolution but my screen goes blank | 22:08 |
| nacc | Kazuto: why do you have old 14.04 kernels on your system? | 22:10 |
| Kazuto | nacc: ? | 22:10 |
| nacc | Kazuto: in any case, it doesn't look like any failures from that command | 22:10 |
| nacc | Kazuto: /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-110-generic | 22:10 |
| Simonious | Are the network problems still going on? | 22:11 |
| Kazuto | nacc: No idea. Could that be a problem? | 22:11 |
| Kazuto | I'm basically at the point where I'm going to save all of my work off-site and re-flash the system though | 22:12 |
| Bashing-om | unstablevet: xtl+c to close that terminal . and open a new terminal ( ctl+alt+t - unity ) . and in this terminal type ' tail -f /var/log/syslog ' . And nothing else . In this terminal is the tail of the log and the (-f) is to see all that gets added to the log file . Terminate the logging in that terminal with ctl+c . to return to CLI prompt . | 22:12 |
| nacc | Kazuto: yes, you might as well, tbh, if that's an option | 22:12 |
| Kazuto | Alright. Thanks for your help, nacc! I'll hang out here until it's done, then I'll rejoin on ZNC. | 22:13 |

| LVDSXorg | when I do xrandr -q, I see my display to be LVDS, should I use LVDS-0 when adding a new mode ? | 22:16 |
| LVDSXorg | Thing is when I try to change my resolution, I get a black screen. I am not sure why | 22:17 |
| OerHeks | LVDSXorg, no, LVDS is correct https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Dynamically_testing_different_resolutions | 22:19 |
| unstablevet | bashing-om:what specifically would i look out for? | 22:19 |
| LVDSXorg | oh okay OerHeks. Any idea why I get the black screen though ? should I play with the rate ? I am trying to get 1920x1080 60 | 22:21 |
| Bashing-om | unstablevet: Whatever is reported when the cam is connected . That would be my starting point . Get some ID's and such to begin following the bread crumbs . | 22:21 |

| clissold345 | Can I ask about 17.04 here? It seems to have installed ok except that I cant open websites in firefox. I can connect to the router and I can ping. Eg ping 8.8.8.8. | 22:25 |
| genii | clissold345: #ubuntu+1 is the official place for Zesty until it reaches actual release | 22:26 |
| dbarton | clissold345: execute a "dig example.net" in your console | 22:26 |
| dbarton | genii: didn't know about #ubuntu+1… thanks :) | 22:27 |
| Apachez | in ubuntu, is there a "good" way to run a specific command AFTER user logged into the gui AND network is up and running? does for example network-manager have a postinit script that it can trigger once network is up and running? | 22:28 |
| clissold345 | genii, I'll try there. Thanks. | 22:29 |
| dbarton | Apachez: in case you use systemd, you could add a service unit (w/ oneshot command) and add it to the correct target (network.target if I'm not completly wrong)… but I think ubuntu uses upstart by default | 22:30 |
| Apachez | yeah if I add an app in startup applications it seems to be working as expected | 22:35 |
| Apachez | but so would gigolo also do but gigolo fails since network isnt up yet when it runs | 22:35 |
| Apachez | so "proper" way to do this would be to locate a trigger of network up and mount as the user | 22:35 |
| Renji666 | Ciao a tutti | 22:52 |
| Apachez | is it possible to disable the unmount option for a user when acting on a gvfs mount? | 23:04 |
| Apachez | like in nautilus | 23:04 |
| eightfold | hi there | 23:08 |
| eightfold | how should i upgrade python 2 to python 3 | 23:08 |
| eightfold | i'm running 16.10 | 23:08 |
| === bitch is now known as |||||||||||||||| | ||
| nacc | eightfold: you don't | 23:09 |
| nacc | eightfold: you run the correct interpreter as needed | 23:09 |
| nacc | eightfold: both are present (python is python 2 and python3 is python 3) | 23:09 |
| eightfold | nacc: ok, but i need to install a program via pip | 23:09 |
| eightfold | and i requires python 3 | 23:09 |
| eightfold | and it | 23:09 |
| nacc | eightfold: pip3 | 23:09 |
| dbarton | eightfold probably change the shebang to python3 | 23:09 |
| === |||||||||||||||| is now known as bitch | ||
| nacc | eightfold: python3-pip rather | 23:10 |
| nacc | eightfold: use the correct pip for the correct environment | 23:10 |
| eightfold | nacc: ok, so apt install pip3? | 23:10 |
| nacc | eightfold: python3-pip iirc | 23:11 |
| eightfold | argh, somebody told me i'd get the latest version by issuing apt install pip | 23:11 |
| k1l | !info python3-pip | 23:11 |
| ubottu | python3-pip (source: python-pip): Python package installer. In component universe, is optional. Version 8.1.2-2ubuntu0.1 (yakkety), package size 106 kB, installed size 558 kB | 23:11 |
| nacc | eightfold: there is no package named pip | 23:11 |
| eightfold | nacc: do i need to uninstall something first, in order not to introduce chaos | 23:11 |
| k1l | eightfold: but are you sure that python package is not in the repos already= | 23:11 |
| nacc | eightfold: no | 23:11 |
| nacc | eightfold: python2 and python3 are in separate paths | 23:12 |
| nacc | eightfold: and 'latest' is relative to ubuntu, of course, not upstream | 23:12 |
| eightfold | k1l: what python package? | 23:12 |
| nacc | eightfold: what python package are you trying to install eventually? | 23:12 |
| eightfold | ok, i'll install python3-pip | 23:12 |
| k1l | eightfold: python2 and python3 are installable at the same time. so not to get a mess all pyhton3 stuff is named python3 | 23:12 |
| k1l | eightfold: the python package you want to install with pip | 23:13 |
| lerner | what command do I need to start a program in 2 hours time? | 23:14 |
| dimisdas | Sleep | 23:15 |
| mcphail | lerner: "at" | 23:15 |
| eightfold | ok, fail. "Exception: Sorry, Python 2 is not supported" | 23:16 |
| nacc | eightfold: where and what command? | 23:16 |
| eightfold | even though i installed python3-pip | 23:16 |
| nacc | eightfold: no context makes it impossible to help you | 23:16 |
| nacc | eightfold: use a pastebin | 23:16 |
| eightfold | pip install --user wpull | 23:16 |
| nacc | eightfold: that's because, as I just said, it's pip3 | 23:16 |
| nacc | eightfold: pip3 to use python3 | 23:16 |
| eightfold | nacc: what is pip3? | 23:17 |
| nacc | eightfold: the python3 pip | 23:17 |
| eightfold | sorry, but i don't understand a thing. the python3 pip is pip3 | 23:18 |
| eightfold | and i insalled it | 23:18 |
| k1l | eightfold: pip is only python2. if you want python version3 to be used you need to use "pip3" | 23:18 |
| nacc | eightfold: there are two commands | 23:18 |
| eightfold | ahhh | 23:18 |
| eightfold | sawry | 23:18 |
| nacc | eightfold: both are for what you are thinking of as 'pip' but you need to tell it which interpreter you want to use | 23:18 |
| k1l | eightfold: it doesnt know what python you want since both pythons are installed | 23:18 |
| eightfold | all these pythons :) | 23:19 |
| nacc | there are two | 23:19 |
| eightfold | pip3 install --user wpull | 23:19 |
| eightfold | worked better | 23:19 |
| lerner | mcphail, so example: 'at 2am firefox -p' | 23:19 |

| mcphail | lerner: "at" accepts jobs from stdin. So you could use: echo "DISPLAY=:0 firefox -p" | at now + 2hours | 23:27 |
| ablest1980 | hi | 23:27 |
| lerner | mcphail, so what I wrote would not work? | 23:27 |
| mcphail | lerner: you'll need to set the "DISPLAY" variable for graphical apps | 23:27 |
| ofir | Hi, I'm experimenting with this ancient kernel 2.6.20-15-generic while reading the Art of Exploitation, and I am puzzled about how stack execution is allowed there | 23:34 |
| eightfold | nacc: do you think this could have anything to do with the fact that i don't have python3 installed? | 23:34 |

| genii | Hm | 23:37 |
| OerHeks | Could be an 2nd option, genii | 23:38 |
| k1l | eightfold: see, the error tells you its missing python3-html5lib | 23:38 |
| nacc | eightfold: well, it does (if you know python and ubuntu) because it can't import a module and ubuntu generally has sane pacakge names for python modules | 23:38 |
