[00:00] <k1l> zenguy: looks like a jdk issue with some own libjpeg
[00:01] <zenguy> ok hmm
[00:01] <zenguy> maybe use a different java library?
[00:01] <tetramaster> i also tried ferro backup
[00:01] <zenguy> like oracle or openjava
[00:02] <tetramaster> and novabackup
[00:02] <tetramaster> (trial version)
[00:05] <zenguy> looks like i have oracle sun java installed
[00:10] <zenguy> hmm see if that worked reboot time :)
[00:12] <azizLIGHT> i have xboxdrv installed and my x360 wired controller works ok when i launch it manually with "sudo xboxdrv --mimic-xpad --silent &" but x360 wired controller doesnt work when i boot up and xboxdrv service starts automatically on boot with commandline "xboxdrv --daemon --silent --dbus disabled --mimic-xpad --mimic-xpad-wireless --trigger-as-button --detach-kernel-driver --next-controller --mimic-xpad
[00:12] <azizLIGHT> --mimic-xpad-wireless --trigger-as-button --detach-kernel-driver --next-controller --mimic-xpad --mimic-xpad-wireless --trigger-as-button --detach-kernel-driver --next-controller --mimic-xpad --mimic-xpad-wireless --trigger-as-button --detach-kernel-driver" .... i have to stop the service and launch the command manually and then controller works
[00:13] <azizLIGHT> im on 14.04
[00:13] <mikeymop> k1l: wait but my directory is rwxrw-r-x and it browse to it
[00:13] <mikeymop> i can't
[00:13] <azizLIGHT> xboxdrv 0.8.5-1 from http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages
[00:16] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, i might be xpad interferring with xboxdrv
[00:17] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, try "sudo rmmod xpad && sudo xboxdrv --silent &"
[00:17] <azizLIGHT> rmmod: ERROR: Module xpad is not currently loaded
[00:17] <azizLIGHT> and xboxdrv says:  Error couldn't claim the USB interface: LIBUSB_ERROR_BUSY
[00:18] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, look up the libusb error and figure that part out
[00:19] <azizLIGHT> i unplugged and replugged the controller and launched xboxdrv a bunch of times
[00:19] <azizLIGHT> same error, kept repeating, and now its working
[00:19] <azizLIGHT> im seeing controller buttons on the prompt
[00:19] <azizLIGHT> how do i make it work properly on boot
[00:20] <pac1> freecad
[00:20] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, try ps -A | grep xboxdrv
[00:20] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, is there a bunch of instances of it running already?
[00:20] <azizLIGHT> glitchd: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24105329/
[00:21] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, kill those 2 processes and try the command again
[00:21] <azizLIGHT> this is ps aux | grep xboxdrv: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24105337/
[00:22] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, kill all of the processes regarding xboxdrv
[00:22] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, then try again
[00:22] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, with the command i gave you
[00:24] <azizLIGHT> glitchd: well i dont have xpad loaded, and xboxdrv seems to be working sure
[00:24] <azizLIGHT> why doesnt it work on boot
[00:25] <glitchd> because its not set to load on boot
[00:25] <glitchd> you have to add it to the list of modules to load on boot
[00:26] <azizLIGHT> sorry i was not clear. i meant that ive never had xpad working or loaded, so thats not the issue. i meant that why doesnt xboxdrv service ever make the controlelr work on boot automatically? why must i shutdown the already running (but not functioning) xboxdrv service, and then launch it again with sudo xboxdrv --mimic-xpad & to make it work
[00:27] <glitchd> im not sure
[00:27] <azizLIGHT> how can i modify the command line arguments to the xboxdrv service thats launched on boot
[00:27] <azizLIGHT> i want to remove --silent
[00:27] <azizLIGHT> and see a log
[00:27] <azizLIGHT> or rather, is thera log somewhere already
[00:30] <glitchd> azizLIGHT, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/zesty/man5/modules.5.html
[00:33] <azizLIGHT> is doing "sudo modprobe xpad" permanent
[00:33] <azizLIGHT> will it survive a reboot
[00:34] <genii> no
[00:34] <genii> put the module name /etc/modules
[00:38] <azizLIGHT> so i added xpad to /etc/modules and controller works on on boot
[00:38] <irishab> hi

[00:43] <foodSurprise> hey fellas
[00:43] <foodSurprise> i've installed google-chrome...how do i install flash
[00:45] <azizLIGHT> i thought google-chrome comes with it builtin
[00:45] <ash_workz> right now i have `find . -print0 | parallel -0 pg_restore -d mydb | tee restore.log` running in screen. It hasn't moved in quite some time and nothing has printed to the log; I don't think it's working, but I can't be sure... I have separate screens that I think are currently actually doing the work, but... is there a way to check with like `ps` or something if I can kill that screen?
[00:47] <foodSurprise> looks like you are correct azizLIGHT
[00:49] <ash_workz> lmao @ azizLIGHT
[00:49] <ash_workz> azizLIGHT: <3 just for your nick
[01:00] <zenguy> couldn't figure out what it was, i guess i could clean out the log files when they need it
[01:00] <zenguy> in a year or whatever
[01:00] <lucas-arg> how can we use a dictionary in libreoffice in the snap package??

[01:26] <BlueProtoman0> Ahem.
[01:26] <BlueProtoman0> (Not sure if my question was posted due to connection issues, so I'm gonna try again)
[01:26] <BlueProtoman0> I use Guake as my primary terminal.  However, when I right-click a directory in Nautilus and select "Open in Terminal", the directory is just opened in the default Ubuntu terminal.  How can I make Nautilus open that directory in Guake?
[01:33] <rocketeer> So I have a Lenovo thinkpad with both a touchpad and a joystick mouse thingy, and the touchpad is starting to die on me (registering phantom mouse movement). Is there any way I can disable moving the mouse with the touchpad, but continue to use the touchpad for clicking?
[01:34] <rocketeer> That way I could use the joystick mouse to move the pointer and the touchpad to click rather than carrying around a usb mouse
[01:37] <redrabbit> any fan control software with gui like speedfan around
[01:38] <redrabbit> that would be actually easy to get to work
[01:38] <redrabbit> pwm control have been a pain and the fans dont even changed speed at all
[01:38] <redrabbit> control works fine from speedfan
[01:42] <rocketeer> redrabbit I don't know of any GUI programs but lm-sensors may be helpful if you're having trouble with pwmconfig
[01:42] <redrabbit> well from lm sensors i can see temperature and speeds
[01:42] <redrabbit> theres a way to control as well ?
[01:43] <redrabbit> i couldnt control even fiddling with /sys/class/hwmon/*
[01:43] <redrabbit> must be something i need to swich somewhere
[01:43] <rocketeer> I did find this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/22108/how-to-control-fan-speed
[01:45] <rocketeer> A gui fan control doesn't seem to exist at least as of 2010: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1373493
[01:47] <redrabbit> its preventing me from switching this pc to ubuntu now, now was to deal with it, i tried stuff from that link, i had it bookmarked ^^ i dont lose hop though
[01:47] <basil1x> My fans spin, I'm pleased not to ask questions.
[01:47] <redrabbit> fan regulation ftw

[01:51] <basil1x> Need kaby lake intel firmware on 16.04.
[01:52] <foodSurprise> does anyone have experince with wine
[01:53] <foodSurprise> when i start winetricks it gives me WINEARCH=win64 even though i set it to be win32 in console
[01:58] <MarkusDBX> can I trust ubuntuupdates.org?
[02:01] <kenrin> Thats up to you.  They are not affiliated in any way to canonical
[02:10] <Mcl0vin> guys how would I change the color of ipcalc
[03:02] <foodSurprise> can anyone recommend a lightweight gmail or email client for linux
[03:02] <foodSurprise> something that would be worth running outside of a browser
[03:13] <basil1x> foodSurprise, I use Thunderbird.  It's not particularly lightweight, but I like it.
[03:13] <basil1x> It's already installed in Ubuntu.
[03:15] <foodSurprise> im looking at clawsmail vs syphleed
[03:15] <foodSurprise> thunderbird isn't lightweight enough
[03:19] <skjones> are the updates offered in the software center the same ones as in the update manager?
[03:20] <foodSurprise> shouldn't they both use apt-get update
[03:20] <foodSurprise> and upgrade
[03:20] <basil1x> They should be exactly the same.
[03:21] <basil1x> apt.  apt-get is old and crusty
[03:21] <ubuntu> hi
[03:22] <skjones> thx
[03:23] <foodSurprise> so happy i installed ubuntu on this netbook
[03:23] <foodSurprise> dear god its so much faster than win7
[03:25] <Old_Dog> I have the MATE DE on this install of Ubuntu. I cannot find an update manager.
[03:29] <Old_Dog> I'm using Ubuntu 15.04 with MATE. Can someone tell me how to find the update manager?
[03:30] <basil1x> You can always install the synaptic package manager.  I rather like it.
[03:30] <Old_Dog> I guess I found it.  Software Updater.  hmmm  thanks
[03:33] <poco_> so every time I boot I have to "run sudo mount -a" in order to get to connect to my NFS shares because otherwise it gives me the "so every time I boot I have to run sudo" error. How would you go about fixing this? Do I need to change permissions for /mnt/ (where the the shares are mounted)?
[03:36] <aelsilmare> hey anyone know about the current state of the kernel?  is version 5 coming soon?
[03:42] <lotuspsychje> aelsilmare: perhaps ask in the kernel channel?
[03:42] <aelsilmare> what channel is that?
[03:42] <lotuspsychje> aelsilmare: #kernel
[03:42] <aelsilmare> kool thx d00d
[03:42] <lotuspsychje> aelsilmare: ##kernel sorry
[03:44] <dooglus> I just booted up an old ubuntu machine that I hadn't used for a year. It won't connect to any encrypted wireless hotspot, but unencrypted is fine. This wasn't an issue last time I used it. Any ideas?
[03:44] <dooglus> it's "Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS"
[03:44] <aelsilmare> what encryption? WEP? WPA?
[03:44] <dooglus> WPA2 personal
[03:45] <aelsilmare> should be easy..wpa_supplicant should have a config file in /etc...should contain your ESSID and password
[03:45] <dooglus> I didn't try WEP or WPA - I just turned the encryption off completely, and that worked. maybe old Ubuntu didn't support WPA2?
[03:45] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: update system fast to 4.04.5 plz
[03:46] <dooglus> I use network manager in XFCE4 to manage the wireless passwords
[03:46] <lotuspsychje> 14.04.5
[03:46] <aelsilmare> what's every1's favorite WM?
[03:46] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: ok. are the problems with 4.04.2?
[03:46] <lotuspsychje> !discuss | aelsilmare
[03:47] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: always try to keep an update system, to avoid problems
[03:47] <aelsilmare> word...I'm available for help I have over 5 years experience with Ubuntu so I can answer all sorts of questions but I'll navigate there
[03:47] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: I just want something to plug into the TV that I can stream from - nothing sensitive will be on it
[03:48] <dooglus> when I say stream, i mean play streams, not broadcast
[03:48] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: will the box be connected to internet?
[03:49] <dooglus> yup. I'm doing an apt-get upgrade now - not sure if that's enough to upgrade the minor version number though
[03:49] <dooglus> it's a 3 hour download
[03:49] <dooglus> 20% [214 libgs9-common 1,833 kB/2,067 kB 89%]            76.1 kB/s 1h 41min 46s
[03:50] <dooglus> the laptop screen got smashed when the airbag went off when my driver hit a deer at high speed - so I figure it's idea for pluggin into the TV - don't need the laptop screen for that...
[03:54] <lotuspsychje> !contribute | aelsilmare welcome to help us
[04:02] <dooglus> I have another question, which I wait for that apt-get upgrade to download...
[04:03] <dooglus> my ISP limits my downloads to about 50 kB/s each. but if I do 20 downloads at once, they all get 50 kB/s, so it's not a bandwidth issue
[04:03] <dooglus> is there some way I can ask apt-get to make multiple connections, maybe to download multiple packages at once? it would make the download so much faster
[04:04] <dooglus> or, even better, is there some way I can have Ubuntu split *every* download over multiple TCP/IP connections, so I get more than 50kB/s per download?
[04:04] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: better to let apt install the regular way
[04:05] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: multiple sessions result in a lock
[04:05] <rocketeer> lotuspsycheje: Multiple sessions actually playing with dpkg result in a lock
[04:05] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: another workaround is to update your box in a public place faster?
[04:05] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: I don't want multiple sessions
[04:06] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: it's a few hours' drive to civilisation from here - so not really
[04:08] <rocketeer> dooglus: "apt download packagename" will download it to the working directory
[04:09] <rocketeer> I'm not sure if there's a way to make that play nicely with dpkg

[05:33] <noobcake> Hello, I am somewhat new to linux permissions and have come across an odd problem I was hoping someone can help me with. In short, I am getting permission denied errors for a user that belongs to the group. For testing I have created a new directory within the home folder of the main user. I have confirmed with "sudo -u www-data stat /home/primary" that he can read this users home directory. Now for the new folder that is
[05:33] <noobcake> assigned to the same group and permissions (I even tried 777) the other user cannot stat that new directory. What am I missing about permissions here?
[05:35] <JFox762> Hey guys

[05:57] <noobcake> smahan83 I will try it in a moment
[05:58] <JFox762> where do i find the calculated hash?
[05:58] <noobcake> dan01 yes
[05:58] <dan01> noobcake: Thanks :)
[06:01] <JFox762> how do i verify my ubuntu download?
[06:05] <Threeletters> Does this channel also support Ubuntu's bash on windows 10 subsystem?
[06:05] <smahan83> JFox762, it will mess with it as it will overwrite the bootloader on your first disk
[06:06] <noobcake> smahan83 sorry, what do you mean? Is this a command?
[06:08] <xangua> Threeletters: no, I believe there's a channel for it tho
[06:08] <JFox762> Why does the server automatically download the AMD64 version of Linux on my machine?
[06:08] <JFox762> My PC is rocking an intel processor
[06:08] <smahan83> noobcake, it is a complicated thing
[06:08] <JFox762> not AMD

[06:16] <Threeletters> Well, on the off chance anyone has an idea here... I'm trying to get the keybase GUI subsystem working, but when I pipe the GUI to an x server, nothing happens other than a success message in the CLI. By way of comparison, gvim works just dandy. What are some logs I can look at that might point me in the right direction?
[06:18] <JFox762> Now do I Run sha256sum on windows?

[06:41] <Aaron> Hello everybody
[06:44] <dan01> Aron: Hi
[06:45] <wander> Hello, anyone familiar with grep? I had some issue with Apache and i was told by #httpd to check to see if Ubuntu is "listening to Port 443"
[06:45] <Aaron> wander: man grep ;)
[06:46] <wander> Yes, i was told to type "man grep" but ive never used this before or heard of it so typing it is giving me a manual
[06:46] <Aaron> wander man nmap, To see at least, if is running.
[06:46] <wander> typed "man nmap", got "No manual entry for nmap"
[06:46] <thinky> hi
[06:47] <Aaron> wander sudo apt-get install nmap
[06:47] <Aaron> ;)
[06:47] <wander> kk, will install
[06:47] <Guest80083> netstat -an | grep 443
[06:47] <wander> ill try that guest
[06:48] <thinky> when i run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" i see this error on terminal: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24107086/
[06:48] <wander> hmm, it seems like i got this: "tcp6       0      0 :::443                  :::*                    LISTEN"
[06:48] <thinky> can somebody help me pls?
[06:48] <JFox762> can someone help walk me through how to run this checksum thing?
[06:48] <wander> @thinky, it says something about ur resources. Do u have enough space?
[06:48] <JFox762> I'm having trouble figuring out how to do this
[06:48] <Aaron> thinky: type sudo ps x | grep apt
[06:49] <Aaron> is running kill the pid with sudo kill -9 pid number ;)
[06:49] <thinky> ok
[06:49] <alkisg> thinky: apt is already running, try sudo apt daily stop
[06:49] <wander> Btw @aaron, more manuals :(
[06:49] <thinky> bash: type: x: not found
[06:49] <alkisg> thinky: or just wait for a minute or too
[06:49] <JFox762> I have the iso, sha256sum and sha256sums.gpg in the same directory
[06:49] <Aaron> wander: google has a lot of them. ;)
[06:49] <thinky> alkisg: i got same error last nite and closed
[06:49] <wander> When running "man nmap", i get another long and frightning manual.
[06:49] <thinky> now i tried again and same eror
[06:49] <alkisg> thinky: apt daily runs once per day, yes
[06:50] <wander> Except google's is not in black & white tho lol
[06:50] <wander> But what
[06:50] <wander> I typed "netstat -an | grep 443"
[06:50] <thinky> E: Invalid operation daily
[06:50] <wander> and got "tcp6       0      0 :::443                  :::*                    LISTEN"
[06:50] <wander> literally all that
[06:50] <alkisg> thinky: so, one time yeasterday and one time today surely makes sense. Sorry, sudo service apt-daily stop
[06:50] <Aaron> then, is running
[06:50] <wander> it seems to be listening over ipv6?
[06:50] <wander> if thats what i think its doing?
[06:50] <Aaron> wander: check your firewall settings.
[06:50] <Aaron> that might help
[06:50] <wander> i only have UFW
[06:51] <thinky> Warning: Stopping apt-daily.service, but it can still be activated by:   apt-daily.timer
[06:51] <Aaron> thinky: just remove the deamon and that's about it ;)
[06:51] <thinky> how to remove daemon?
[06:51] <jpugarte1> hello, could someone help with a problem related to ROS installation? I am getting this msg: bash: /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash: No such file or directory
[06:52] <wander> Okay, so i typed "ufw app list" and it says its allowing "Apache, Apache Full, Apache Secure, and OpenSSH"
[06:52] <alkisg> thinky: don't remove anything
[06:52] <alkisg> thinky: it stopped, now try apt update again
[06:52] <wander> Idk if any of the apaches have port 443 in them
[06:52] <thinky> same error :S
[06:52] <alkisg> thinky: ps aux | grep apt
[06:52] <smahan83> JFox762, type sha256sum *.iso, then Tab and Enter
[06:52] <smahan83> JFox762, compare the hash with what is in SHA256SUMS
[06:53] <thinky> alkisg: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24107109/
[06:54] <Aaron> let me install irssi xD
[06:54] <Guest80083> wander: what is the issue you are having with apache?
[06:54] <alkisg> thinky: you are running gnome-software, close it to run apt: /usr/bin/gnome-software --gapplication-service
[06:55] <JFox762> ok it is running
[06:55] <JFox762> Is there a way to copy the string of text that it produces?
[06:55] <alkisg> thinky: you can't run apt two times, one from GUI and one time from the console
[06:55] <thinky> i am not running anything alkisg
[06:55] <thinky> i just tried to update on terminal
[06:55] <wander> Well, i had UFW disabled all this time so port 443 should have been working but wont
[06:55] <alkisg> thinky: check your paste, it says gnome-software there
[06:56] <wander> I have now typed the command "sudo ufw allow https"
[06:56] <alkisg> thinky: if you closed it, and apt is still running, then kill it
[06:56] <wander> and i restarted the server
[06:56] <JFox762> how do i open the gpg file?
[06:56] <thinky> what pid ?
[06:56] <wander> ohh, i just restart the server. Its much easier and everything gets closed
[06:56] <thinky>  2173 ?        Sl     0:04 /usr/bin/gnome-software --gapplication-service ?
[06:56] <alkisg> thinky, that, and 2517
[06:57] <wander> Sadly this did not work :(
[06:57] <alkisg> thinky: it sounds like you opened gnome-software, and when you closed it, it continued doing things in the background
[06:57] <Guest80083> wander: are you trying to connect locally?
[06:58] <wander> no, im trying to connect via my domain
[06:58] <wander> Here is my full problem: https://www.reddit.com/r/apache/comments/5xf551/apache_refuses_to_load_ssl/?st=izuvlnpd&sh=9b7d7375
[06:59] <wander> i have no problem typing in my servers IP address locally on the network
[06:59] <wander> The thing is, when i type in my domain
[06:59] <wander> Chrome says the server refuses to connect over SSL
[07:00] <JFox762> so if i download with utorrent
[07:00] <JFox762> or bit torrent
[07:01] <JFox762> will it automatically "Checksum:
[07:01] <wander> I have no idea what I am doing wrong. None of the articles on the front page of Google can help me
[07:01] <wander> And im sure im not asking for rocket science here
[07:01] <wander> I have a self signed certificate that I want to use on my server but Chrome wont take it
[07:03] <wander> do i have a unique problem?
[07:03] <Guest80083> wander: it would be a good idea to do a port scan on your server, as mentioned be sure the port is openn from the outside
[07:03] <wander> good idea
[07:03] <JFox762> is md5checksum an ok alternative?
[07:03] <JFox762> to sha?
[07:05] <Guest80083> also RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off ... looks a bit suspect, I would think to look at that closer
[07:05] <wander> which file?
[07:05] <wander> @Guest80083
[07:05] <wander> i think it has to do with the conf but i cant tell
[07:06] <wander> that seems to be the best bet
[07:06] <Guest80083> from your pastbin
[07:06] <wander> I know but which pastebin file?
[07:06] <wander> theres
[07:06] <wander> 2
[07:06] <Guest80083> vhost
[07:06] <Guest80083> https://pastebin.com/raw/6cVFVCMX
[07:07] <Guest80083> I could completly be wrong, but thats where I would start
[07:08] <wander_> hey im here, that felt weird
[07:08] <wander_> anyway i used a guide for that
[07:08] <wander_> cuz i needed to force HTTPS
[07:08] <Aaron> what are you doing hacking?
[07:09] <wander_> Me? @aaron
[07:09] <Guest80083> did the port scan reveal an open 443 port?
[07:09] <wander_> According to nmap, 443 is open! https://pastebin.com/raw/VSBy27mb
[07:10] <wander_> so it has to be from configs
[07:10] <Guest80083> sounds like it may be a vhost config issue then. I would look into that.
[07:11] <wander_> only thing that i dont fully understand so has to be it
[07:11] <wander_> okay thanks for the nmap idea though
[07:11] <wander_> will come in handy
[07:11] <dan01> I have a question what are the disadvatanges of using Ubuntu over Windows these days?
[07:11] <Guest80083> I havent messed with vhost in years.. hopefully you are on your way!
[07:12] <Aaron> dan01: that with Ubuntu you get the source code, and windows you don't ;)
[07:13] <dan01> Aron: I'm serious, I'd like to switch for some time, but I have all sort of silly concerns, for instance: Why don't I have a Intel Graphics Control Panel in Ubuntu
[07:14] <Aaron> dan01: because you need to configure the sources.list and install additional drivers.
[07:14] <Aaron> I'm not using Ubuntu I'm Downloading it right now.
[07:16] <smahan83> JFox762, why do you need a gpg file?
[07:19] <smahan83> JFox762, do you need to verify the ISO you've downloaded or you suspect it was compromised by hackers/government/etc?
[07:26] <mohsen-rashidi> hello
[07:27] <Apachez> how do I reinstall a deb in ubuntu without removing it first (its already installed but I accidently wiped some files who belongs to this deb and now I want to reinstall it so the files gets recreated)?
[07:29] <mohsen-rashidi> I`ve the intention to remove the Unity and install xfce instead; but i`m not sure whether to remove unity firsthand and then install xfce to prevent the duplication of apps or to do the otherwise! what do you suggest? thank you
[07:29] <meta-coder> Apachez: Why not remove and install again?
[07:30] <Apachez> meta-coder: because then apt wants to remove everything labeled ubuntu
[07:30] <Apachez> which I dont want
[07:30] <Apachez> some stupid dependency
[07:32] <meta-coder> Apachez: Which ubuntu labeled package? You can remove it if it's just be a metapackage.
[07:32] <Apachez> I have solved it already
[07:32] <meta-coder> OK
[07:32] <Apachez> if you want to remove ubuntu-wallpapers-yakkety it will try to remove ubuntu-desktop unity8 and another 200 or so packages...
[07:33] <Apachez> which is... bad :)
[07:35] <meta-coder> Apachez: did you try apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-wallpapers-yakkety?
[07:35] <meta-coder> s/apt-get/apt/
[07:38] <Apachez> yup that was the fix
[07:39] <alkisg> (09:29:33 πμ) mohsen-rashidi: I`ve the intention to remove the Unity and install xfce instead; but i`m not sure whether to remove unity firsthand and then install xfce to prevent the duplication of apps or to do the otherwise! what do you suggest? thank you ==> first xfce
[07:39] <alkisg> Ah he left
[07:41] <alkisg> (09:13:11 πμ) dan01: Why don't I have a Intel Graphics Control Panel in Ubuntu ==> the linux philosophy is that all companies should provide the backend, and desktop environments should provide the frontend (gui) to configure graphics. So intel writes the driver and gnome writes the monitors dialog.
[07:42] <manvam> Easiest quetion for this chat: I need a cron that goes every Sunday at 5:30am
[07:42] <manvam> how would i type that?
[07:42] <manvam> i know the whole "crontab -e" but typing the hours, days, months, etc
[07:43] <JFox762> Does my boot media have (usb thumdrive) have to be in ext4 format to install Linux?
[07:44] <alkisg> JFox762: no, it's usually fat32
[07:44] <alkisg> JFox762: normally you download ubuntu.iso and write it to a stick, so it's a mixed form to support both efi and not
[07:44] <dan01> alksig: I see, ok.
[07:44] <dgtlchlk> manvam: "30 5 * * 7" should work or "30 5 * * 0"
[07:45] <JFox762> ok
[07:45] <JFox762> when i try to boot from the USb
[07:45] <JFox762> it doesnt seem to recognize it as a boot disk
[07:46] <manvam> dgtlchlk: so that translates to "Every Sunday at 5:30am"
[07:46] <alkisg> JFox762: how did you create the usb stick? dd? rufus? unetbootin?
[07:46] <dgtlchlk> manvam: yes
[07:46] <manvam> correct?
[07:46] <manvam> thank you!
[07:46] <manvam> This one right? 30 5 * * 0
[07:46] <dgtlchlk> that or 30 5 * * 7, though 7 is a bit more non standard. might not work with every cron
[07:47] <manvam> im using crontab -e with ubuntu server 16.04
[07:47] <manvam> i just want it to auto update itself
[07:47] <manvam> ohh yea
[07:47] <manvam> last question
[07:47] <dgtlchlk> sure fire way to find out, try it and set the date ahead
[07:47] <manvam> do i need to use 'sudo'
[07:48] <dgtlchlk> to set a user crontab entry? no
[07:48] <manvam> like "30 5 * * 0 sudo apt-get update"
[07:48] <dgtlchlk> oh
[07:48] <manvam> no, when typing it out, do i type "30 5 * * 0 sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y"
[07:49] <smahan83> JFox762, you need an image writer software to replace the normal filesystem on the thumbdrive
[07:49] <ducasse> manvam: put it in roots crontab, then you don't need sudo
[07:49] <dgtlchlk> manvam: 16.04 already has a daily apt-get update
[07:49] <manvam> ohh ea, im running as root
[07:49] <manvam> forgot to mention
[07:49] <manvam> so i guess not
[07:50] <dgtlchlk> theres a system service for it already
[07:50] <manvam> this is my full command
[07:50] <manvam> "30 5 * * 0 apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y && apt autoremove && reboot"
[07:50] <dgtlchlk> thats not really a good idea
[07:50] <ducasse> manvam: if you want automatic upgrades, just use unattended-upgrades
[07:50] <dgtlchlk> unattended dist-upgrades can go bad
[07:51] <manvam> so how would i do this?
[07:51] <dgtlchlk> by hand
[07:51] <manvam> im talking about unattended-upgrades
[07:51] <dgtlchlk> https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/automatic-updates.html
[07:53] <manvam> ohh wow so it already has that built in
[07:53] <manvam> but wait
[07:53] <manvam> some updates may require reboot
[07:53] <manvam> the thing about apt-get update is that it updates software
[07:53] <manvam> does unattended-upgrades do that or only to the system?
[07:53] <ducasse> manvam: read the docs, it can auto-reboot
[07:53] <dgtlchlk> also, the system is software
[07:53] <dgtlchlk> so thats a moot line to draw
[07:54] <manvam> I know but what about apache, mysql, php, and such?
[07:54] <dgtlchlk> what about them?
[07:54] <manvam> does unattended-upgrades take care of them too?
[07:54] <ducasse> of course
[07:54] <dgtlchlk> you can specify "any" package
[07:54] <manvam> ohh wow! extremely useful! how do i know if its working?
[07:54] <manvam> like any "service" thing i can call like apache2?
[07:55] <dgtlchlk> heh, you really are in over your head
[07:55] <manvam> i came from Windows to Ubuntu because i want complete control
[07:55] <manvam> Windows 10 really blew it for me
[07:55] <manvam> Microsofts policy that "we will update on our time" is fucking me over hard
[07:55] <pickle_> winblow$
[07:55] <dgtlchlk> thats changing anyway but
[07:55] <dgtlchlk> eh
[07:55]  * dgtlchlk shrugs
[07:55] <JFox762> I dont seem to be bothered by it so much
[07:56] <JFox762> why is that a problem for so many?
[07:56] <manvam> On my normal general laptop, sure. Microsoft can update
[07:56] <JFox762> i mean I'm not a huge fan of microsoft... but I've never really had an issue with windows updating constantly
[07:56] <JFox762> I have to use Windows for gaming
[07:56] <manvam> Before, I used to host the actual programs (apache, etc...) on Windows itself
[07:56] <JFox762> I wish all the games I love to play were available on linux
[07:57] <manvam> but due to the bad timing and conflicts, Windows fucking blows in that department
[07:57] <manvam> So im running a VM
[07:57] <manvam> Ubuntu VM
[07:57] <JFox762> alkisg
[07:57] <ducasse> !language | manvam
[07:57] <JFox762> alli did was move the iso to the disk
[07:57] <manvam> Ohh, im very sorry
[07:57] <JFox762> to the usb drive
[07:57] <alkisg> JFox762: that doesn't make the drive bootable, you need to follow the wiki page instructions
[07:57] <alkisg> JFox762: when you download ubuntu, it has a link for how to make a usb stick
[07:58] <manvam> Anyway, back to my question: how can i change the time of unattended-upgrades because...
[07:58] <manvam> I tried going into "nano /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades"
[07:58] <alkisg> JFox762: what is your current OS, windows? https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
[07:58] <manvam> and well, theres no place to set the time
[07:58] <JFox762> 10
[07:58] <alkisg> JFox762: ok, read that page that I linked above ^
[08:04] <ducasse> manvam: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1965730
[08:06] <smahan83> manvam, are you one of those who boast with a year+ uptime?
[08:07] <manvam> if ur saying about "uptime" as in when was the last time i had to access the server
[08:07] <manvam> i never got a full year
[08:07] <manvam> 3 months max so far until i had to go in to modify files to fix something
[08:08] <ducasse> manvam: uptime = time since last reboot
[08:08] <manvam> ohh, idk. I dont care when the server reboots
[08:08] <rstudio_HALP> Ubuntu 16.10, can't get rstudio to run unless using launching w/ sudo. Halp?
[08:08] <manvam> I just need it to work when i need it
[08:09] <manvam> it can reboot all night if it has to install the new security patches
[08:09] <manvam> as long as when I use it, my server is working, im fine
[08:09] <manvam> of course, i would hope its fully patched too
[08:09] <manvam> and that I dont need to manually update it myself
[08:10] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> hi
[08:10] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> what is the best way to fully cutsomize a Ubuntu image and then quickly deploy it to a lot of identical computers?
[08:10] <manvam> anyway im off for the night, thank you very much
[08:11] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> create an ISO + Clonezilla, OEM install...?
[08:11] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> maybe using Fully Automatic Installation (FAI)? http://fai-project.org/
[08:12] <rstudio_HALP> Launch a program, get this error: "TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'window.desktopHooks.notifyRCrashed')"
[08:12] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: one quick way that I'm using is to create a VM however you want it, and then dd the result to the clients
[08:13] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> "dd the result to the clients". how exactly?
[08:13] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: I also have a usb stick that I sometimes use to boot+clone the installation that I have there
[08:13] <alkisg> dd is a command that copies a disk to another disk
[08:13] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> i know what dd is
[08:13] <alkisg> dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=1M
[08:13] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> but these computers have no OS
[08:13] <alkisg> Then gparted /dev/sdb to grow the partition, if needed
[08:14] <alkisg> You can boot them via usb stick or netboot them, I use ltsp for netbooting
[08:14] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> i have to create some kind of installaton media to work with them
[08:14] <rstudio_HALP> If any of you guys can offer some help, I'd be beyond appreciative.
[08:14] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> netboot? hmmm
[08:15] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> can you please describe a way that doesn't require a network at all? just using CD/DVDs, USB sticks, etc.
[08:15] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: sure, make an installation to a usb stick, customize it, then boot the client with that, and dd from usb to hard disk
[08:16] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> to install it to the USB i just need to perform a regular install in a ext4 partition inside the USB, is that correct?
[08:16] <alkisg> Yes
[08:16] <alkisg> Also make a swap partition so that dd is easier
[08:17] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> woah i'll need a bigger stick for this, i have a lot of spare 4GB sticks but that won't be enough :/
[08:17] <alkisg> 8 gb is enough
[08:17] <alkisg> The swap can be just 64 mb
[08:17] <JFox762> so im trying to install Linux on my 2nd hard drive I just got...
[08:17] <alkisg> You can easily resize it with gparted after dd
[08:17] <JFox762> Do I have to format, and partition that hard drive before loading the boot drive?
[08:17] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> to clone the swap, i just dd it like the main partition and expand it?
[08:18] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: you clone the whole stick, so sdb1=ext4 goes to sda1, and sdb2=swap goes to sdb2, and then with gparted you resize them in 10 seconds to fill the whole disk
[08:18] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: that way you won't have to bother with either fstab or grub
[08:19] <alkisg> It's really just a dd and 10 secs for gparted resize
[08:19] <alkisg> You dd the whole sdb to sda, so all partitions get transferred
[08:19] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> yeah sounds very convenient
[08:20] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> thanks a lot ^^
[08:20] <alkisg> np; but you'd like the network more :D
[08:20] <alkisg> It's extremely easy to set it up
[08:20] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> i do, but we're still setting up the network
[08:20] <alkisg> Note that the stick should be just enough to fit your OS, don't buy a 64gb one and need to dd all of it, it will take a lot of unneeded time
[08:21] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> we have the switches and all the cables mounted in the wall but the router isn't giving IPs, and we're still missing things in some parts
[08:21] <alkisg> Giving IPs with dnsmasq is 1 line
[08:21] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> yeah i'll buy a 8GB stick :)
[08:22] <alkisg> You could probably also use the 4 gb for the initial setup, it should fit...
[08:25] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> i have it all ready, thank you a lot alkisg <3
[08:25] <alkisg> np
[08:27] <JFox762> so i selected "install ubuntu"
[08:28] <JFox762> and as soon as I select that
[08:28] <JFox762> it blanks out the screen
[08:28] <JFox762> and my monitor shuts off o_O
[08:28] <JFox762> followed shortly by a sound on my speakers
[08:28] <JFox762> that sounds like a bongo being tapped
[08:29] <JFox762> but still ... screen is blank, and monitor is receiving now signal
[08:31] <alkisg> JFox762: if you press caps lock now, does the keyboard led blink?
[08:31] <k1l_> sound like nomodeset is needed. is it a nvidia card?
[08:31] <JFox762> its a gtx 970
[08:31] <JFox762> i tried to plug in my monitor to my motherboard
[08:32] <JFox762> dvi
[08:32] <JFox762> and thtat didnt pull imageeither
[08:32] <k1l_> !nomodeset | JFox762
[08:32] <k1l_> you need that for the install and 1st boot of the installed os. then install the nvidia driver from ubuntu and you should not need that anymore
[08:33] <JFox762> if i jsut remove the graphics card
[08:33] <JFox762> for the install
[08:33] <alkisg> If you plug your monitor to your motherboard, reboot for it to take effect
[08:33] <alkisg> The bios initializes the connected card
[08:33] <JFox762> so i need to remove my graphocs card?
[08:34] <alkisg> Noone said that
[08:34] <alkisg> Try to reboot while having the monitor connected to your motherboard card
[08:34] <alkisg> If that doesn't work, see the link about how to use nomodeset
[08:37] <smahan83> Linux (even Ubuntu) is not for the faint of heart
[08:40] <JFox762> how do i modify the kernal from windows?

[08:43] <B105PH3RE> JFox762: you shouldn't have any issues installing, btw what version are you trying to install and flavor?
[08:44] <B105PH3RE> why can't I see itsgokul and lufeng talking?
[08:44] <B105PH3RE> just blanks
[08:44] <alkisg> That's what they're typing :)
[08:44] <B105PH3RE> weird
[08:44] <B105PH3RE> of some secret crypto thing haha
[08:45] <itsgokul> its new type of alien language
[08:45] <B105PH3RE> kewl, how do I learn?
[08:46] <itsgokul> 10 space equals hi
[08:46] <itsgokul> its secret
[08:46] <B105PH3RE> fine then
[08:46] <B105PH3RE> :_(
[08:47] <B105PH3RE> JFox762: your not getting picture during install or after install either?  Do you see a grub menu or splash at all or just no signal front monitor?
[08:48] <JFox762> just after booting to the boot drive
[08:48] <JFox762> like after hitting enter on "install ubuntu
[08:48] <JFox762> i might see a purple screen with some icons for a brief second
[08:48] <JFox762> and then the screen goes blank
[08:48] <JFox762> and shuts off
[08:48] <B105PH3RE> this is a live cd?
[08:48] <JFox762> but i was able to get around it
[08:49] <JFox762> by removing my gfx card
[08:49] <JFox762> temporarily
[08:49] <B105PH3RE> what cable are you using for the monitor and are you using an adaptor/converter for the cable?
[08:49] <JFox762> according to the link... after i install. ubuntu
[08:49] <JFox762> hdmi
[08:49] <JFox762> or not hdmi
[08:49] <JFox762> dvi
[08:49] <JFox762> I *WISH* I had HDMI
[08:49] <B105PH3RE> dvi and you using strictly dvi cable to monitor or using a converter?
[08:49] <JFox762> well the card supports it
[08:49] <JFox762> i just dont have the cables to attach to my PC and TV
[08:50] <JFox762> well it works now
[08:50] <JFox762> with my GFX card out
[08:50] <JFox762> and the monitor plugged directly to the motherboard
[08:50] <B105PH3RE> when you using your graphics card you get nothing
[08:50] <JFox762> yes
[08:50] <JFox762> so im installing ubuntu without my gfx card installed
[08:51] <JFox762> according to the thing...
[08:51] <B105PH3RE> and I am assuming your booting your computer with the cable on the video card not internal, did you try changing the order on the video card post in the bios?
[08:51] <JFox762> uhhh no i didnt try that
[08:51] <JFox762> but
[08:51] <JFox762> i dont think it gives me the option
[08:51] <B105PH3RE> there almost always is an options for AGP/IGP and then you make asure its not IGP/AGP
[08:51] <B105PH3RE> or sorry
[08:51] <JFox762> ok
[08:52] <B105PH3RE> IGP/PCIE
[08:52] <JFox762> soooo... Im at this instlal screen
[08:52] <B105PH3RE> or whatever
[08:52] <JFox762> when does it ask me which hard drive to install on?
[08:52] <B105PH3RE> something like that
[08:52] <JFox762> I have windows on my primary hard drive
[08:52] <JFox762> that I dont want to mess up
[08:52] <B105PH3RE> if you don't have a PCIE graphics card installed your onboard will work but once you install the card then you should be prioritizing the addon card
[08:52] <smahan83> JFox762, you need to install the loader on your *second* disk
[08:53] <smahan83> and use a bios boot menu to select it later
[08:53] <B105PH3RE> this config in your bios won't effect your windows configuration whatsoever
[08:54] <B105PH3RE> did you try booting with the graphics card installed and leaving it connected the onboard
[08:55] <JFox762> ok
[08:55] <JFox762> So... hmmm
[08:55] <JFox762> under "Device for boot loader installation"
[08:55] <JFox762> i should click "ATA ST320318AS (250gb)?
[08:56] <JFox762> my other drive is a western digital, which contains my windows
[08:56] <JFox762> os
[08:56] <B105PH3RE> are you wanting dual boot of you want to pick the drive from boot bios menu?
[08:56] <JFox762> ummm
[08:56] <B105PH3RE> you want to leave the windows intact then choose the LINUX DRIVE
[08:56] <JFox762> the 250gb drive?
[08:57] <k1l_> the grub needs to be isntalled on the MBR from the disk that boots first. so you get asked what os you want to boot
[08:57] <B105PH3RE> it won't effect the windows but you will have to boot from bios or make the linux priorty and use the grub to boot windows that way
[08:58] <B105PH3RE> I usually leave my windows drive intact and then install linux on a second drive with grub and have os probe the second hdd for windows option
[08:58] <JFox762> Ok so...
[08:58] <B105PH3RE> and change the hdd order in bios
[08:58] <B105PH3RE> whichever you want
[08:58] <JFox762> it says...
[08:58] <JFox762> well
[08:58] <JFox762> i want it to default to windows
[08:58] <alkisg> +1 B105PH3RE, that also allows for removing the second disk and boot windows without having to remove grub
[08:59] <JFox762> unless I hit the F11 key
[08:59] <JFox762> for my bios options
[08:59] <k1l_> JFox762: you can set Grub to default to windows.
[08:59] <JFox762> OK
[08:59] <B105PH3RE> thats an option also
[08:59] <B105PH3RE> can even have 0 delay and then just use shift on boot to goto linux
[09:00] <JFox762> So.....just install both, the bootlogger and linux system onto the 250gb drive
[09:00] <JFox762> and that will leavre windows intact
[09:00] <B105PH3RE> roger that
[09:00] <B105PH3RE> 250gb is the linux drive of course right?
[09:00] <JFox762> yes
[09:00] <JFox762> my windows 10 is 1tb
[09:00] <JFox762> WD
[09:00] <JFox762> my new linux drive is the 250gb one
[09:00] <B105PH3RE> ok so choose that one
[09:01] <JFox762> when i click "install now" it comes up with a dialogue box.... saying
[09:01] <JFox762> No root file system is defined. Pleas correct this from the partitioning menu
[09:01] <B105PH3RE> are you using the whole drive?
[09:01] <JFox762> the whole 250gb drive
[09:01] <JFox762> yes
[09:02] <B105PH3RE> whats the version you installing 16.04 15.04?
[09:02] <JFox762> there is a /dev/sda1 at 134mb
[09:02] <JFox762> and free space 248865mb
[09:02] <JFox762> 249865*
[09:02] <B105PH3RE> so you have a small partition on the drive
[09:02] <JFox762> remove it?
[09:02] <B105PH3RE> if you don't want it
[09:03] <smahan83> i wonder why his "second" drive is sda
[09:03] <B105PH3RE> its got a partiion on it
[09:03] <JFox762> possibly has something to do with which sata?
[09:03] <JFox762> well to be fair
[09:03] <JFox762> my other drive also... has like ...
[09:03] <JFox762> 3 partitions i think?
[09:03] <B105PH3RE> was this a windows drive at any point or from a laptop cuz sometimes its the restoration parition
[09:04] <JFox762> I think one is for the recovery
[09:04] <k1l_> show a "sudo parted -l" in a pastebin and link it here
[09:04] <JFox762> the new drive?
[09:04] <JFox762> the new drive is fresh from the factory
[09:04] <JFox762> or at least it should be
[09:04] <reppson_> good morning from sweden
[09:04] <B105PH3RE> hmm
[09:04] <B105PH3RE> weird
[09:04] <B105PH3RE> I would investigate whats on that partition first buts that me
[09:05] <smahan83> JFox762, you can press ctrl+space to open a terminal window
[09:05] <JFox762> hmmm
[09:05] <JFox762> ok so
[09:05] <JFox762> i removed the one partition on my 250gb drive
[09:05] <JFox762> and i double clicked on Free space
[09:05] <reppson_> first time on Linux works fine so far
[09:05] <JFox762> should i create a partition?
[09:05] <B105PH3RE> my linux always works
[09:06] <k1l_> smahan83: the shortcut on ubuntu for terminal is ctrl+alt+t
[09:06] <JFox762> because when i tried to install into free space
[09:06] <JFox762> it says no root file system is defined
[09:06] <alkisg> (11:05:00 πμ) smahan83: JFox762, you can press ctrl+space to open a terminal window ==> does that work in ubiquity even if there's no session? (i.e. user selected "install ubuntu" not "try ubuntu")?
[09:06] <JFox762> please correct this from the partitioning menu
[09:06] <B105PH3RE> you have to create the root parition first
[09:07] <JFox762> ok
[09:07] <B105PH3RE> but there should have been an option at the beginnined to install alongside or use entire disk or something
[09:07] <JFox762> there perhaps
[09:07] <JFox762> was
[09:07] <reppson_> but not wine works.a problem must solve
[09:07] <JFox762> but i clicked "Do something else"
[09:07] <JFox762> because I wanted to make sure that Ubuntu would install only on my 250gb drivre
[09:07] <alkisg> JFox762: when you installed windows, did you also have that 250 gb disk connected? I might be possible that the partition you deleted was the windows boot partition
[09:07] <alkisg> *it
[09:07] <JFox762> no
[09:07] <alkisg> OK
[09:07] <JFox762> not when i installed windows
[09:08] <JFox762> I bought the drive after i decided i wanted to try ubuntu on my main pc
[09:08] <B105PH3RE> but at the top should show you which drive your going to install it to
[09:08] <JFox762> Im on my laptop, which is running Gallium OS (linux distro for Chroembooks)
[09:08] <JFox762> just fyi
[09:08] <mystified1234> need some hardware help.  Gpu issue, system crashing or monitor goes crazy. both internal & external
[09:09] <JFox762> I like linux enough that I want to try Ubuntu on a more,... hardcore machine
[09:09] <mystified1234> laptop i5-480 Gpu nvidia g330
[09:09] <JFox762> ok
[09:09] <B105PH3RE> mystified1234: did you try a new cable?
[09:09] <mystified1234> hoe to read dmesg from cli with pause option
[09:09] <JFox762> so... should i create ok
[09:10] <mystified1234> it's a laptop
[09:10] <k1l_> !dualboot | JFox762
[09:10] <JFox762> should i create a new partition with ext4?
[09:10] <B105PH3RE> JFox762: once I tried linux on my main system I never removed it just upgraded it... haven't looked back since its been 5 years now
[09:10] <k1l_> JFox762: its fine to have a dualboot. and its fine to use 2 different disks for that. i dont see why you are making it so complicated :)
[09:11] <B105PH3RE> mystified1234: is this happening while on battery or plugged in or both?
[09:11] <mystified1234> both
[09:11] <B105PH3RE> does this happen on a tty also without running X?
[09:11] <mystified1234> yes
[09:12] <B105PH3RE> once it happens system doesn't response at all or just not usable
[09:12] <mystified1234> thats where im at at this point but can't read all of  dmesg how to pause the text
[09:12] <B105PH3RE> can you ssh in while its messed up?
[09:12] <JFox762> do i absolutely need to do this with a Boot *CD*
[09:12] <mystified1234> it's ok for a few minutes then reboots
[09:12] <JFox762> or can i just use my thumdrive like ive been using?
[09:13] <B105PH3RE> either way doesn't matter JFox762
[09:13] <B105PH3RE> so the system's rebooted itself mystified1234?
[09:13] <mystified1234> yes
[09:13] <mystified1234> sometimes sometimes stays closed
[09:13] <B105PH3RE> damn thats sounds like a major problem.... no dmesg or logs trails that you can find?
[09:14] <B105PH3RE> did you swap out your RAM?
[09:14] <mystified1234> dmesg starts
[09:14] <mystified1234> but I can only see the end of the file
[09:14] <B105PH3RE> new harddrive no peripherals... etc?
[09:14] <mystified1234> how can I view with nano
[09:14] <alkisg> mystified1234: dmesg | less
[09:14] <mystified1234> k
[09:14] <mystified1234> thx
[09:14] <alkisg> q to exit from there
[09:15] <JFox762> so if i click "install ubuntu alongside windows boot manager"
[09:15] <alkisg> if you have network and you want us to see it, dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999
[09:15] <alkisg> mystified1234: ^
[09:15] <JFox762> will it allow me an option to pick a drive?
[09:15] <JFox762> or do i have to use the "Something else" option":
[09:16] <smahan83> JFox762, select "something else" and create a partition in the free space: ext4, mount point /
[09:17] <mystified1234> rebooting
[09:18] <JFox762> ok... how much space for that partitition?
[09:18] <mystified1234> ill try termbin.com/w5ht
[09:18] <JFox762> does Grub need to have its own separate partition from the OS?
[09:19] <JFox762> from ubuntu that is?
[09:19] <smahan83> all 250 gb? no, it is installed in mbr
[09:19] <B105PH3RE> what time is it in sweden?
[09:20] <mystified1234> tx
[09:20] <smahan83> B105PH3RE, 10 am
[09:20] <JFox762> MBR?
[09:20] <JFox762> the MBR in my main drive you mean?
[09:20] <B105PH3RE> 4:20 am here
[09:20] <JFox762> the windows drive?
[09:20] <smahan83> mbr of the drive you will select in that combobox
[09:20] <mystified1234> http://termbin.com/w5ht
[09:21] <JFox762> it gave me a dialogue box saying i need to assign a partition for swap spacE?
[09:22] <smahan83> JFox762, no need to
[09:22] <mystified1234> now its frozen...
[09:23] <JFox762> why dont i need swap space?
[09:23] <JFox762> how do i assign swap space, and how much?
[09:23] <smahan83> JFox762, if you have more than 2gb ram, it will suffice
[09:24] <JFox762> i have 16
[09:24] <JFox762> i can add swap space after installation if i so choose... correct?
[09:24] <B105PH3RE> mystified1234: i think i know whats happening
[09:24] <reppson> wife work this weekend that give more time discover ubuntu
[09:24] <mystified1234> thx
[09:24] <smahan83> yes, you can
[09:25] <B105PH3RE> is it going to suspend the screen blanking causing it to freeze it seems to me
[09:25] <reppson> and its a nice day for a skii ride also Lot of snow
[09:26] <B105PH3RE> mystified1234: add consoleblank=0 to your grub cmdline
[09:26] <B105PH3RE> and retest the tty for the problem
[09:26] <mystified1234> ok
[09:26] <JFox762> ok it is installing *fingers crossed*
[09:26] <B105PH3RE> also disable your screen blanking or any power saving mode in the X
[09:26] <mystified1234> grub.cfg
[09:27] <B105PH3RE> /etc/default/grub
[09:27] <anddam> having a local server at home running NFS server would it be better to switch deja-dup backup from ssh to local one, over the mounted NFS export?
[09:27] <B105PH3RE> the default linux is GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
[09:29] <reppson> smahan83. is there any voice chat programs like paltalk for windows for ubuntu system? Not skype i have that but something else?
[09:29] <B105PH3RE> mystified1234: once you make the change you need todo update-grub
[09:29] <smahan83> reppson, idk
[09:30] <reppson> idk? is that a voice chat program?
[09:30] <B105PH3RE> reppson: you video conference or voice?
[09:30] <smahan83> i don't know
[09:30] <B105PH3RE> sorry reppson you want for video or voice?
[09:31] <JFox762> is libre the same as open office?
[09:31] <reppson> B10. voice and video like paltalk for windows. i have not suuced run wine so i can try paltalk on ubuntu
[09:31] <B105PH3RE> pidgin is the only cross-platform that I am aware of to work...
[09:31] <mystified1234> 2 cmd lines
[09:31] <B105PH3RE> and its a pain
[09:32] <smahan83> JFox762, yes, it is a fork of openoffice. also it is in active development while openoffice is pretty much abandoned
[09:32] <JFox762> so i should switch to libre on all my machines?
[09:32] <reppson> ok so its possible voice chat with other pidgin members in that program?
[09:33] <mystified1234> = default  or
[09:33] <B105PH3RE> yes but it using google, msn, facebook, and such protocols
[09:33] <mystified1234> =linux ""
[09:33] <B105PH3RE> xmmp supports the video conferencing I believe
[09:33] <insiad> Does ubuntu have paid staff
[09:33] <bazhang> reppson, there are unofficial items for that, these are at your own risk
[09:33] <mystified1234> screen went binary code\
[09:34] <bazhang> insiad, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:34] <reppson> ok i see. but first try solve the wine program so i can run windows chat programs. wine is installed but not work. Strange!
[09:35] <bazhang> reppson, check the appdb and then for help in #winehq
[09:35] <bazhang> !appdb | reppson
[09:35] <B105PH3RE> reppson: did you configure your wineprefix by running winecfg and such?
[09:36] <reppson> ok i am a very beginner with linux it works fine so far so i hope i can solve the wine problem
[09:36] <B105PH3RE> reppson: running a virtualbox would be best
[09:37] <JFox762> i am succesfully logged into Ubuntu! :)
[09:37] <reppson> what is virtualbox? my english is limited
[09:38] <JFox762> Virtualbox allows you to create a "Virtual" PC environment
[09:38] <JFox762> kind of like a PC within your PC
[09:38] <smahan83> a free oracle virtual machine software
[09:38] <JFox762> you can test untrustworthy software in it
[09:38] <JFox762> if im not mistaken
[09:38] <reppson> ok fox. is that something i must download?
[09:38] <JFox762> since it is isolated from everything
[09:38] <JFox762> Only if you wwant to set up a virtual machien
[09:39] <JFox762> i keep mispelling machine
[09:39] <JFox762> i suck on this keyboard lol
[09:39] <smahan83> reppson, you can install it from repos
[09:39] <B105PH3RE> wine mainly for like games and such graphics oriented stuff if you want apps virtualbox is better for that
[09:39] <thorn__> 大家好
[09:40] <B105PH3RE> thorn__: english?
[09:40] <bazhang> !cn | thorn__
[09:40] <reppson> ok.im not so good in compters. i installed ubuntu on a windows computer i can use both operating systems
[09:40] <bazhang> reppson, wubi?
[09:41] <reppson> wubi ??
[09:41] <JFox762> i sure hope i didnt screw up my windows partition
[09:41] <bazhang> reppson, you said you installed ubuntu on windows
[09:41] <B105PH3RE> windows ubuntu intaller
[09:41] <JFox762> testing that now
[09:41] <reppson> no windows works normal no problems
[09:41] <smahan83> is wubi still supported?
[09:41] <bazhang> reppson, yes, how did you install ubuntu on windows
[09:41] <B105PH3RE> spill it man :)
[09:43] <JFox762> well i was able to get to my windows log in screen
[09:43]  * B105PH3RE waits in anticipation of reppson question.
[09:43] <JFox762> and even my background image is the same
[09:43] <JFox762> soooo most likely nothing got screwed up on that drive
[09:43] <reppson> i burned ubuntu 16.10 and installed it. it was possible choose keep windows 10 during the installation procedure
[09:44] <bazhang> reppson, so a dual boot
[09:44] <JFox762> so....
[09:44] <JFox762> should i install the drivers for my NVidia card now?
[09:44] <JFox762> before I install ubuntu?
[09:44] <JFox762> not install
[09:44] <reppson> yes when start computer i can choose between linux and windows
[09:44] <JFox762> i mean boot into it
[09:45] <JFox762> So... what are the recommended System requirements for Ubuntu? Like at what point should you be considering installing Xubuntu or Lubuntu, or associated lightweight distros?
[09:46] <JFox762> I mean, my desktop system is absolutely going to do ok
[09:46] <JFox762> GTX 970
[09:46] <B105PH3RE> its your flavor
[09:46] <smahan83> JFox762, if you have 1 gb ram or a single core processor
[09:46] <JFox762> Intel 4690K processor
[09:46] <bazhang> JFox762, what are your current specs on that computer
[09:46] <JFox762> 16gb
[09:46] <B105PH3RE> tell me whats your flavor?
[09:46] <bazhang> JFox762, thats fine for the standard ubuntu
[09:47] <JFox762> Oh yeah
[09:47] <JFox762> I also have another laptop...
[09:47] <B105PH3RE> dude I've got ubuntu  on some old freakin stuff
[09:47] <JFox762> a reall old one
[09:47] <reppson> fox. what do you mean with boot into it? as i said when i start computer i can choose between win or ubuntu
[09:47] <bazhang> JFox762, please dont use the enter key like that
[09:47] <bazhang> JFox762, all the info together on one line, please
[09:48] <B105PH3RE> wifi and nic's give some problems after initial install gotta install some packages but other then that works like a charm
[09:48] <smahan83> reppson, with the grub or the windows bootloader?
[09:48] <JFox762> Ill try to do that bazhang, sorry about that.
[09:49] <reppson> eh what is grub? i have a boot menu when i start computer, win or ubuntu
[09:49] <JFox762> I love the look of the Ubuntu desktop environment. Absolutely gorgeous. Looks better than even OSx
[09:50] <bazhang> JFox762, did you want more support, or to chat
[09:50] <B105PH3RE> kde4 plasma is beeutiful
[09:50] <bazhang> reppson, grub allows you to boot between win and ubuntu for example
[09:51] <B105PH3RE> windows users would enjoy kde plasma
[09:51] <B105PH3RE> thats how I start converting them.
[09:51] <reppson> ok that is what i have then maybe as i can choose between the 2 systems when i start computer
[09:51] <bazhang> JFox762, did you wish to find help for that old laptop, please give us the specs
[09:51] <bazhang> B105PH3RE, please keep the chatter to the offtopic channels
[09:52] <B105PH3RE> Roger Thats Sir, Right Away Sir!
[09:52] <B105PH3RE> :)
[09:53] <reppson> if i can solve the wine proplem i dont need windows longer. i can format the drive and install only linux
[09:54] <bazhang> reppson, wine for whatsapp, or what
[09:54] <bazhang> reppson, have you checked the appdb as we suggested you do yet
[09:54] <reppson> wine is a program that let me run win programs
[09:55] <bazhang> reppson, yes, some, not all
[09:55] <mvvvv> reppson, what is your : wine --version ?
[09:55] <B105PH3RE> you need to make sure that you install the dependencies for the applications your running in wine.
[09:55] <B105PH3RE> its like a new windows.
[09:55] <bazhang> reppson, I gave you a link to check for which wine supports and runs, have you checked it yet
[09:56] <JFox762> So it seems now everytime i start my system.. it asks me what system to boot into
[09:56] <JFox762> oh well
[09:56] <JFox762> not a big deal i can leave it as is
[09:56] <B105PH3RE> you can default it off
[09:56] <B105PH3RE> so you don't see it
[09:57] <JFox762> advanced ubuntu?
[09:57] <reppson> no i have not. i do that soon. i take a tour in ubuntu now this is very new for me
[09:57] <B105PH3RE> basic stuff
[09:57] <JFox762> I mean advanced ubuntu options?
[09:57] <bazhang> B105PH3RE, perhaps you mean changing the grub timeout
[09:57] <reppson> i succed install spotify and skype works fine
[09:57] <B105PH3RE> roger that
[09:57] <bazhang> B105PH3RE, thats not turning it off
[09:58] <B105PH3RE> essentially
[09:58] <B105PH3RE> hiding it
[09:58] <bazhang> B105PH3RE, no, as you can get back in and re change the timeout
[09:59] <B105PH3RE> well if you don't want to have it at all then you should have chose to install grub to the linux partition not the windows partition
[09:59] <JFox762> what version of Skype do you all recommend?
[09:59] <B105PH3RE> none
[09:59] <JFox762> Why?
[10:00] <B105PH3RE> its not native
[10:00] <ikonia> B105PH3RE: yes it is
[10:00] <B105PH3RE> and microsoft owns it now
[10:00] <ikonia> JFox762: the current stable linux build works, there is an alpha with more advanced fatures, and it's growing in stability
[10:00] <bazhang> !info skype partner
[10:00] <ikonia> B105PH3RE: that is pretty much the most pathetic answer you can give, well done for lowering the bar
[10:00] <bazhang> there is skype B105PH3RE JFox762
[10:00] <B105PH3RE> hah
[10:01] <JFox762> Well, yeah, but it's the only way I can video chat with my Fiance in Thailand (She's Filipina, works as an English teacher there)
[10:01] <B105PH3RE> ya I know there's skype but I mean it started out on windows and then migrated over
[10:01] <ikonia> JFox762: the legacy stable build supports video just fine
[10:01] <bazhang> JFox762, so enable the partner repo and install it
[10:01] <ikonia> B105PH3RE: you're just saying silly things now - stop it
[10:01] <B105PH3RE> it have to shut up now
[10:01] <JFox762> Legacy Stable build...
[10:02] <JFox762> lol
[10:02] <ikonia> JFox762: skype has been slowly maintained on linux for a long time hence "legacy" there is a new alpha, that is pretty much the same as the windows client, but its not marked as stable yet, but it is very usable
[10:02] <reppson> ubottu. i am on that appdb webpage now. what i look after there?
[10:02] <bazhang> B105PH3RE, please again stop the excess chit chat and commentary here, it's not helpful at all
[10:02] <JFox762> I think on my current laptop, running Gallium OS, Im running Skype for Linux Beta
[10:03] <JFox762> I think,... I previously was running a version of skype that had an interface that reminded me of AOL Instant messanger from the 90s
[10:04] <bazhang> JFox762, you have instructions on how to install skype on ubuntu via the partner repo, was that clear for you
[10:08] <JFox762> ubuntu really feels a lot like... OSx
[10:08] <bazhang> JFox762, lets take the chatter to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[10:08] <smahan83> JFox762, unity was made to emulate that successful os, at least visually
[10:08] <ikonia> smahan83: no it wasn't
[10:09] <MonkeyDust> unity was made to make ubuntu usable on a phone
[10:11] <JFox762> Well I got all the help I needed installing ubuntu :) it seems everything is running spectacularly. Thanks for the help guys! :)
[10:16] <jhsdkj> hi

[10:30] <qc170422> /
[10:38] <frib> I tried to install ubuntu on a USB using a second live-USB that I Booted in EFI mode. On the target USB i created a 300MB EFI partition and made the rest EXT4. I specified to install the bootloader to /dev/sdx where x is my target usb. After reboot the usb is not bootable (no EFI files available) and my main disk ends up pointing to the grub installed on the target usb (not a problem easy to fix). How can I make this usb bootable? thanks
[10:39] <frib> btw the usb is bootable via the grub installed on it, but there is no way to get to grub without the main disk booting to it
[10:39] <insiad> frib: is their shortcut key that you can select device to boot from
[10:39] <frib> insiad, of course that's how I know it's not bootable because i specifically selected it
[10:39] <frib> the EFI is not "populated" or something
[10:40] <frib> instead the EFI was written to my main disk, no matter what i try it doesn't write the EFI to the usb
[10:40] <insiad> frib: during the instal did you select a USB partition to install grub
[10:41] <frib> insiad, it doesn't ask about grub
[10:41] <JFox762> So I tried installing the drivers for NVidia... but it won't let me install them unless my Card is installed in the PC. The problem, however, is that if I have the card installed... I get no video, and can't see anything when I get ubuntu loaded up. How do I get this to work?
[10:42] <insiad> https://i.stack.imgur.com/fHPI8.png frib bootloader
[10:43] <insiad> https://i.stack.imgur.com/fHPI8.png frib bootloader
[10:43] <frib> ok
[10:45] <frib> " I specified to install the bootloader to /dev/sdx where x is my target usb."
[10:48] <JFox762> Im able to get to a pre-boot commandline
[10:48] <insiad> frib: did you try changing bios not to use uefi see if your USB boots
[10:49] <craptalk> I got samba error, please check this http://pastebin.com/6D65quti
[10:49] <craptalk> i tried few times, and still no clue
[10:49] <frib> insiad, my bios has legacy support, it doesn't boot either way i have tried every possible combination
[10:51] <insiad> frib: did you create a uefi partition on USB
[10:51] <frib> insiad, did you read my question?
[10:51] <frib> because you're literally asking me everything that i stated in my question
[10:52] <ducasse> JFox762: pretty sure you can install the nvidia drivers without the card being in the machine
[10:52] <JFox762> It didn't let me
[10:52] <JFox762> So...
[10:52] <ducasse> JFox762: what didn't let you?
[10:52] <JFox762> Linux
[10:53] <JFox762> or rather the program
[10:53] <JFox762> it said it did not detect the card
[10:53] <ducasse> JFox762: _which_ program?
[10:53] <JFox762> the drivers I downloaded from NVIDIA
[10:54] <ducasse> JFox762: you shouldn't use those at all.
[10:54] <craptalk> I got samba error, please check this http://pastebin.com/6D65quti
[10:54] <frib> does anyone know how to fix the EFI on a usb installation?
[10:54] <JFox762> Shouldn't use what? Drivers from NVidia?
[10:54] <anonymous> hi
[10:54] <insiad> frib: I think I did this by instilling bootloader to root partition of install instead of device
[10:54] <ducasse> JFox762: yes. install the correct drivers from the repo for your card from the command line, shut down, plug the card in and boot the system.
[10:55] <ducasse> JFox762: don't download software from websites to install, all you need should be in the repos.
[10:55] <zoli__> hi. How can I get back the color icons of the hdd in nautilus, as it was in earlier ubuntus? Now from trusty there are only fix monochrome icons!
[10:56] <frib> insiad, i tried that too
[10:56] <ducasse> JFox762: also, have you tried booting with nomodeset with the nvidia card plugged in?
[10:56] <JFox762> im trying to
[10:57] <JFox762> I just can't make sense of the this website, so https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
[10:58] <ducasse> JFox762: what is it you don't understand?
[10:58] <JFox762> i dont know how to run nomodeset
[10:59] <ducasse> JFox762: read the "How to temporarily set kernel boot options on an installed OS (not wubi)" section on that link, it explains everything.
[11:00] <JFox762> that link has broken images
[11:01] <ducasse> JFox762: you shouldn't really need them, there is only one line that starts with linux, and you just put nomodeset at the end
[11:03] <ducasse> JFox762: besides, you're not permanently changing anything, it's just for one boot so you can get the drivers installed.
[11:04] <JFox762> DO I type a space after "quiet splash $vt_handoff"
[11:06] <JFox762> Ok it worked,
[11:06] <smahan83> what worked?
[11:14] <itsgokul>

[11:14] <MonkeyDust> itsgokul  it works, we see you
[11:15] <itsgokul> :P
[11:15] <k1l_> itsgokul: stop that in here.
[11:15] <ducasse> itsgokul: cut it out, it wasn't funny before, it isn't funny now
[11:15] <itsgokul> i thought everyone is sleeping
[11:16] <ducasse> itsgokul: even if they were, that's irrelevant.
[11:16] <k1l_> !ot | itsgokul
[11:16] <itsgokul> ok.. okk...
[11:17] <ph88> tracker-extract and tracker-store always eat all my cpu, what's the recommended way to stop it? I already tried http://askubuntu.com/a/353450/231084
[11:18] <itsgokul> good
[11:21] <itsgokul> which ubutu version
[11:22] <ducasse> ph88: you want to permanently stop it from running?
[11:23] <ph88> well if it would work properly it can just run ... but if it's eating all my cpu for long periods of time i don't want this
[11:23] <ph88> so whatever it's doing is fine as long as it doesn't eat my cpu
[11:23] <ducasse> ph88: which ubuntu version?
[11:23] <ph88> 16.04
[11:24] <ducasse> ph88: did you try all the things that are mentioned on that link for 16.04?
[11:24] <ph88> i only tried that one answer
[11:25] <ph88> The values could be changed using dconf-editor by navigating through org > freedesktop > Tracker > Miner > Files
[11:25] <ph88> this i tried
[11:26] <ducasse> ph88: why not the others, especially the one about using the gui to set it to only run when the machine is not in use?
[11:26] <JFox762> Is there a way to get Ubuntu to recognize middle mouse click (scroll wheel click) and allow for a "super fast scroll" like you can do in windows?
[11:26] <ph88> ducasse, which one you mean ?
[11:27] <MonkeyDust> JFox762  yes, that's what the middle scroll wheel normally does
[11:28] <diogenes_> ph88, the right things that worked for me is the "echo -e "\nHidden=" comands
[11:28] <diogenes_> so do those ones
[11:29] <ph88> diogenes_, here it says it's best done in my .config local directory https://gist.github.com/vancluever/d34b41eb77e6d077887c#startup-files so i copy the desktop files there and then change them ?
[11:29] <ducasse> ph88: install tracker-gui, then the last bit here http://askubuntu.com/a/499777
[11:30] <ducasse> ph88: if that doesn't work - http://askubuntu.com/a/779443
[11:31] <ph88> ducasse, ok i changed stuff with the gui .. lets hope it works in the future
[11:33] <diogenes_> ph88, I personally did this: 1 navigate to /etc/xdg/autostart open every single tracker.desktop files in a text editor and just added this following line to every one of them: Hidden=true, save the files and reboot
[11:34] <Zta> I'm about to backup a video dvd and I'm wondering what tool to use.  I've just tried Handbrake and my ripped file gets quite large like 1.2GB for about 1½ hours of mp4 with normal profile.  Is this normal?  "Usually" files are about 600MB but perhaps they've been limited that way to fix a disc?
[11:38] <FMan> that sounds normal
[11:38] <FMan> remember that DVD has a 4 GB capacity
[11:39] <FMan> if I backed up a DVD, I would just copy the files out of it (but I suppose MPEG-2 is too bad for ppl nowadays (I remember for someone it was already ten years ago))
[11:42] <Zta> Okay.
[11:42] <Zta> Good to know =)  And you're right about the 4GB.  I suppose a 1:4 reduction in size is okay.
[11:44] <Zta> FMan, but you'd prefer to copy the VOB files?  Aren' t they a little messy to playback on a tablet and in general?
[11:45] <ilmaisin> aargh, after updating to 16.04.2 kernel, usb tethering went uselessly unstable
[11:46] <smahan83> you cannot just copy files from dvd, they are encrypted
[11:48] <nikola> test
[11:48] <smahan83> I used something called dvdbackup
[11:50] <FMan> Zta: I was just thinking of a "pure" backup, then I'd preserve the original files (but I suppose you just wanted a backup copy of the video rather than an exact DVD backup)
[11:54] <thyriaen> i am trying to get f.lux ( https://justgetflux.com/ ) to work - but it does not change anything when i hit preview :: no errors - do you guys know what could be the issue or whom i could ask about it ? :)
[11:57] <ducasse> thyriaen: why not use redshift instead? it's in the repos.
[11:58] <thyriaen> cause i did not know about it - will check it out
[11:58] <thyriaen> any major differences ?
[11:58] <ducasse> thyriaen: :)
[11:58] <ducasse> thyriaen: not that i know, it does the same thing.
[11:58] <thyriaen> okey cool thanks a lot
[12:06] <thyriaen> ducasse, so do i just run redshift on startup then ?
[12:08] <ducasse> thyriaen: just autostart it on login like you would any other application
[12:08] <thyriaen> ye
[12:09] <MonkeyDust> i had to install geoclue-2.0 in order to make redshift work
[12:10] <thyriaen> so the way i see it you just launch it with -t DAYVALUE:NIGHTVALUE - but does it increase those steadily like f.lux does over a few hours ?
[12:10] <thyriaen> so like a dayly cycle ?
[12:10] <ducasse> thyriaen: read the package description, 'apt show redshift'
[12:12] <thyriaen> sounds good :)
[12:12] <thyriaen> justs dont know what value i need for the night now
[12:12] <ducasse> thyriaen: there is also a gui, redshift-gtk
[12:13] <thyriaen> ye i've found that already thx
[12:24] <kacie> all the really crappy kewl shit happens with ubuntu for some reason
[12:26] <thyriaen> thanks ducasse : everything works beautifully now <3
[12:28] <ducasse> thyriaen: np :)

[13:03] <voltbit> hello, anybody having a bug where (evince pdf viewer) is not visible in alt+tab menu?
[13:18] <tesla__> Heyy
[13:19] <tesla__> which frameworks i can use to program HTML?
[13:20] <MonkeyDust> tesla__  bluefish (in the repos), or bluegriffon (not in the repos)
[13:20] <tesla__> Thank you Monkey!!!
[13:21] <MonkeyDust> !html
[13:22] <tesla__> so then wich editor is the best? in ubuntu/linux to program HTML5/CSS3/JS
[13:22] <MonkeyDust> tesla__  the one you like most, that's the best
[13:22] <tesla__> tnks and sorry for this dumb question but im new on this and i want to learn ahaha
[13:28] <joeel84> A text editor, and a browser are usually all you need for web stuff.
[13:28] <joeel84> Firefox and Chrome have developer tools built in
[13:28] <joeel84> I'm usually editing HTML and CSS and usually the WYSIWYG editors just kind of get in the way
[13:29] <joeel84> Are you using a CMS or trying to build stuff from scratch?
[13:37] <dimisdas> !best | tesla_
[13:38] <dimisdas> oh well
[13:41] <catbadger> hey I'm running ubuntu server and have some docker questions. #docker is always empty. If anyone here would mind answering some questions DM me please as I dont' want to polllute #ubuntu
[13:42] <cmrabet> Hi all
[13:42] <MonkeyDust> catbadger  simply put your docker question in one line, then wait
[13:42] <catbadger> um it's a little more involved than that
[13:43] <catbadger> I have the problem typed out with enough detail to help an answerer, but it's like 7 lines.
[13:43] <cmrabet> I'm trying to setup Shit+CTRL+left key to select all text in the current line until the end using xdotool but it's not working, this is what I have in the keyboard shortcut settings: bash -c "xdotool getactivewindow key Shift+End" . Can anyone help me please? Thanks
[13:44] <catbadger> cmrabet did you try editing the Shift+End part to say Shift+Ctrl+Left?
[13:44] <cmrabet> By the way, I've been using Macs for a decade now and recently jumped to Ubuntu. I'm trying to replicate one of the features I miss the most (end, start, select end, etc. with keyboard)
[13:45] <cmrabet> catbadger, I have that in the other section where you enter the combination of keys
[13:45] <catbadger> oh
[13:45] <MonkeyDust> catbadger  past your question here on this page, then paste the link here in the channel http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[13:45] <catbadger> sorry i'm not an expert, i just thought I'd try. :)
[13:45] <cmrabet> catbadger, so I have in the command to run bash -c "xdotool getactivewindow key Shift+End" and then in the combination of keys to trigger the command to run Shift+Ctrl+Right
[13:46] <anddam> !best | anddam
[13:46] <catbadger> here is my docker question thank you MonkeyDust http://paste.ubuntu.com/24109895/
[13:46] <anddam> dimisdas: joke?

[13:49] <catbadger> i hope that is ok.
[13:49] <dimisdas> catbadger: Have you tried #docker-dev and #docker
[13:50] <whatsoever64839> Hello guys. I put a network card in the PCI slot. ifconfig doesn't see it but lspci does. I tried with another card and another slot and the result is the same. Am I doing something wrong?
[13:50] <catbadger> dimisdas i will try docker-dev
[13:52] <anddam> is there any advantage in using NFS in place of SSH for duplicity backup?
[13:52] <anddam> whatsoever64839: missing driver?
[13:52] <anddam> whatsoever64839: I'd check dmesg for occurencies of the card chipset
[13:54] <whatsoever64839> anddam: that commans returns a whole lot of lines
[13:54] <whatsoever64839> anddam: what do I have to look for?
[13:54] <lotuspsychje> anddam: try ##networking perhaps
[13:55] <ducasse> whatsoever64839: which ubuntu version are you on?
[13:55] <MonkeyDust> hi lotuspsychje
[13:55] <lotuspsychje> hey MonkeyDust
[13:56] <whatsoever64839> ducasse: 16.04
[13:56] <ducasse> whatsoever64839: what does lspci say about it?
[13:57] <whatsoever64839> ducasse: 03:05.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02)
[13:58] <ducasse> whatsoever64839: does lspci -k list a module in use for it?
[13:59] <whatsoever64839> ducasse: Kernel driver in use: e1000 Kernel modules: e1000
[14:00] <ducasse> whatsoever64839: and ifconfig lists nothing?
[14:00] <whatsoever64839> not for this device
[14:01] <llutz> whatsoever64839: ifconfig -a
[14:01] <whatsoever64839> llutz: the -a flag actually makes it listed
[14:02] <llutz> whatsoever64839: so its there, just down/not configured
[14:02] <anddam> plot twist
[14:02] <whatsoever64839> llutz: how do I make it work?
[14:03] <llutz> whatsoever64839: read "man ifconfig"
[14:03] <llutz> whatsoever64839: or better, "man ip"
[14:03] <anddam> btw what's the proper approach to figure what the appropriate driver module is for a certain hardware, going into kernel source?
[14:04] <akinode> hey, I want to setup my claws-mail client on hotmail but I keep getting this error message: (claws-mail:2337): WARNING **: [15:02:43] IMAP error on imap-mail.outlook.com: connection refused
[14:04] <akinode> does anyone know what that's about? did they change the address?
[14:04] <akinode> I followed the instructions here: http://superuser.com/questions/71876/claws-mail-configuration-for-gmail-and-hotmail
[14:04] <lotuspsychje> anddam: ubuntu drivers get recognized automaticly
[14:05] <llutz> whatsoever64839: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/network-configuration.html
[14:05] <lotuspsychje> anddam: for some devices there's need to search driver manual
[14:06] <ducasse> anddam: you can run modinfo on a module to see which devices it's for
[14:06] <anddam> lotuspsychje: is that an ubuntu-specific feature? I thought it was just the kernel
[14:07] <lotuspsychje> anddam: check also ubuntu-drivers from terminal
[14:07] <anddam> ducasse: yea, I was wondering the opposite, tho', if you have some esotic hw how do you figure the proper module
[14:07] <anddam> (without plugging it in and looking dmesg)
[14:07] <anddam> lotuspsychje: I will, thanks
[14:09] <ducasse> anddam: aiui, the kernel holds a list of what hw is supported by the modules it knows about, and loads the right one when the hw is available. there is no list as such stored on the filesystem, you'd need to use modinfo.
[14:11] <someone235> Hi, I have a very strange behaviour. When I do "ping shippuden.co.il" in my ubuntu machine I see that the ip address is 104.27.142.42, and when I do the same with another machine, I get 104.27.143.42 . Someone knows what could cause it? The two machines are connected to the same wifi network. And I can't browse to the site with my ubuntu machine because I get the wrong IP address
[14:12] <craptalk> i got this on my log http://termbin.com/vmt0. Is this somehow clue of why my ubuntu-gnome failed after hibernation?
[14:12] <craptalk> please help
[14:12] <craptalk> i am running ubuntu-gnome 16.04 LTS
[14:12] <ducasse> someone235: both addresses are assigned to that hostname, you get one at random
[14:13] <MonkeyDust> someone235  google, too, has more than one ip address, it's not unusual
[14:13] <whatsoever64839> llutz: I added the interface in /etc/network/interfaces and rebooted but it doesn't work
[14:14] <Dr_Coke> lol@craptalks name
[14:15] <llutz> whatsoever64839: "doesn't work" is not a usefull error explanation
[14:15] <ducasse> craptalk: just doing 'dmesg | grep error | nc termbin.com 9999' is useless as it leaves out tons of info. there's no context there.
[14:16] <whatsoever64839> llutz: same as before, it's not recognized, but I did just what the guide says
[14:16] <ducasse> whatsoever64839: pastebin /etc/network/interfaces
[14:16] <llutz> whatsoever64839: and the output of "ip a s"

[14:18] <anddam> nvm, already answered

[14:27] <root____5> hello
[14:27] <root____5> hello
[14:27] <cnnx> how do i allow root logins on ubuntu. i added PermitRootLogin yes and restarted sshd
[14:27] <root____5> exit
[14:27] <cnnx> on 16.04.2 lts
[14:28] <compdoc> there is no root account, unless you give it a password
[14:28] <cnnx> i did
[14:28] <cnnx> let me check /etc/passwd
[14:28] <cnnx> root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
[14:28] <cnnx> looks fine
[14:29] <compdoc> ca you logon as root on the console? youre talking about ssh
[14:29] <compdoc> can
[14:29] <cnnx> let me go to the station
[14:30] <cnnx> compdoc: no, local root login doesnt work either
[14:30] <cnnx> so its not an sshd config issue
[14:31] <cnnx> only way i can root is ssh as my user then sudo to it
[14:31] <llutz> cnnx: thats the intended way
[14:31] <cnnx> i guess i prefer getting straight into it
[14:31] <whatsoever64839> cnnx: did you add AllowUsers string?
[14:31] <cnnx> whatsoever64839: in which file?
[14:31] <whatsoever64839> sshd_config
[14:31] <cnnx> no
[14:32] <cnnx> but its not working locally either
[14:32] <cnnx> so i dontg think its that
[14:32] <llutz> cnnx: the root account is locked by default
[14:32] <compdoc> there are sites that show you how to enable the root account, but this is ubuntu and the root account wasnt enbled by design. bad idea to mess with it
[14:32] <cnnx> not a big deal then
[14:32] <cnnx> i'll leave it
[14:33] <whatsoever64839> cnnx: sudo passwd (enter new password)

[15:00] <maha_x> can anyone help with "out of range" problem with my ubuntu live image?
[15:01] <robertzaccour> howdy
[15:01] <whatsoever64839> llutz: it's failing to start raise network interfaces now and takes more than 5 minutes to boot
[15:01] <robertzaccour> What is the user name and password during the live session on the login screen?
[15:03] <whatsoever64839> robertzaccour: which distro?
[15:04] <robertzaccour> whatsoever64839: xubuntu
[15:04] <cnnx> i have this problem with xubuntu at work
[15:04] <cnnx> i have dual screens
[15:04] <cnnx> dont know if its related
[15:04] <cnnx> while im working all of a sudden my screen goes weird showing parts of the screensaver red flame thingy
[15:04] <whatsoever64839> robertzaccour: that's the username
[15:05] <cnnx> then i press alt-ctrl arrow to switch workspace
[15:05] <robertzaccour> cnnx: I'm asking what the live session password is on the login screen.
[15:05] <cnnx> and it goes away and its fine again
[15:06] <robertzaccour> Right now my user name in the live session is xubuntu. I don't know the password for the login screen.
[15:06] <whatsoever64839> robertzaccour: try to leave it blank
[15:06] <robertzaccour> I'm trying to make a video on a panel plugin for a global menu but I need to log out and back in. I need to know the password to get back in.
[15:06] <robertzaccour> ok
[15:08] <maha_x> is it possible to run the live image with default VGA? All I get is a "out of range" message on my screen
[15:08] <maha_x> nomodeset doesnt help
[15:09] <compdoc> maha_x, been a long time since Ive seen that. you using a crt, or what?
[15:09] <llutz> whatsoever64839: if you want to use more than one iface with dhcp (whyever), i guess you need to run multiple instances of dhclient. this needs to be configured
[15:10] <whatsoever64839> llutz: I want to use this machine as a router,that's why
[15:10] <llutz> whatsoever64839: so it makes no sense to configure both ifaces to use dhcp
[15:10] <maha_x> no it's dell 16:10 panel
[15:10] <pjgrep> I'm on trusty. My dns takes a very long time (about a minute or more) to resolve. It tries to connect to an IPv6 address first when I try to do an apt-get update. Suggestions?
[15:11] <pjgrep> trusty (LTS)
[15:11] <pjgrep> eg: 100% [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1560:8001::11)]

[15:12] <PCatinean> Hey guys, how di I install nodejs locally without all the hundret of dependencies?
[15:12] <pjgrep> ducasse, thanks. Is that a bug in ubuntu, or a misconfig by me? Wondering how it happened.
[15:13] <ducasse> pjgrep: it's more an indication of some problem with ipv6 dns config, i'd think
[15:16] <tom_> lol
[15:18] <pjgrep> ducasse -- that worked, thanks. Wondering if it is just apt or other resolutions
[15:19]  * pjgrep checks
[15:19] <pjgrep> hmm. just apt.
[15:19] <pjgrep> ducasse++
[15:20] <robertzaccour> It worked, thanks.
[15:20] <ducasse> pjgrep: iirc, i narrowed it down to those ubuntu servers, seems they just time out over ipv6. my memory may be faulty, though.
[15:21] <finexbeer> is the intell Celeron good for ubuntu
[15:23] <ducasse> finexbeer: it should work, but 'good' is subjective
[15:25] <finexbeer> ok
[15:27] <ducasse> finexbeer: it all depends on what you're going to use them for, and how important performance is to you
[15:29] <freebandZ> hello family and greetings from TEXAS! i have a n00b question forgive me or asking
[15:30] <baizon> !ask | freebandZ
[15:30] <freebandZ> i have a lenovo thinkpad and the previous owner has unbutu 11.07 installed and was the admin
[15:31] <ducasse> freebandZ: wipe it and install a supported version
[15:31] <freebandZ> HOW do i reset the password and let myself become the SU and ROOT user
[15:31] <baizon> freebandZ: sudo -i
[15:31] <freebandZ> wipe it meaning? is there a code i run from the terminal or
[15:32] <ppf> freebandZ: no, get a current version and install it
[15:32] <ducasse> freebandZ: reinstall, wipe the disk clean.
[15:32] <ppf> it'll wipe the old one along the rode
[15:32] <llutz> freebandZ: you don't want to use an old installation, where you don't know what the former owner did
[15:32] <freebandZ> i thought there was a way to run a code from the terminal but im currently logged into a "guest" account.. so i am very limited on admin
[15:33] <ducasse> freebandZ: that ubuntu version is not supported and don't get updates, you need a newer version
[15:33] <finexbeer> APU AMD E2-7110 con scheda grafica Radeon™ R2 (1,8 GHz, 2 MB di cache, 4 core)
[15:34] <finexbeer> its good processes for ubuntu
[15:35] <freebandZ>     
[15:35] <ducasse> finexbeer: again, it depends

[16:04] <fotonzade> yeah its some openmw thing
[16:04] <fotonzade> I just want to know how to get rid of it
[16:04] <alkisg> There's ppa-purge to remove ppas
[16:04] <alkisg> !ppa-purge
[16:10] <fotonzade> alkisg, I cant install anything
[16:10] <fotonzade> without solving this
[16:11] <alkisg> fotonzade: try: sudo dpkg --purge libbullet2.85:amd64; sudo apt-get install -f
[16:11] <dekon> alert volume could be too low dekon :D

[16:14] <BigMao> Hi everyone - I'm trying to set up a software RAID using mdadm. I have unmounted all the drives I want to use, and now I'm encountering the problem "cannot open /dev/sda: Device or resource busy"
[16:14] <alkisg> fotonzade: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ppa-purge => download ppa-purge.deb and run sudo dpkg -i ppa-purgexxxx.deb
[16:14] <alkisg> Then ppa-purge + your ppa
[16:15] <BigMao> What could be causing the drive itself to be busy if I've already unmounted all of my partitions?
[16:15] <alkisg> BigMao: swap
[16:15] <alkisg> swapoff /dev/sda5...
[16:16] <BigMao> Thanks, but that's not my issue. I have the operating system, EFI, and swap on a separate drive.
[16:16] <BigMao> https://bpaste.net/show/4284510798b4
[16:16] <catbadger> for anyone who is having the same problem as me, it was 100% user error. i had a bad option in my start script. it wasn't in my minimal example...
[16:16] <alkisg> And which one is busy, and what is the exact message?
[16:17] <llutz> BigMao: ""swapon -s"
[16:17] <BigMao> https://bpaste.net/show/46a404eb7d87
[16:17] <BigMao> llutz: https://bpaste.net/show/3173146a5945
[16:18] <BigMao> alkisg: /dev/sda is busy. I've pasted the output of mdadm
[16:18] <BigMao> I was previously using it for /home, but I decided to configure a software RAID, so I unmounted it.
[16:18] <BigMao> (Sorry for inexact language, I unmounted /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1)
[16:19] <alkisg> BigMao: did you use umount -l, or plain umount?
[16:19] <BigMao> I tried the umount -l first, and when that didn't work, I mounted again and used umount.
[16:19] <alkisg> umount -l is lazy unmount, so the files can still be in use
[16:19] <alkisg> You have to reboot now, I don't know of any other way
[16:20] <BigMao> All right - thanks for the advice :) I think I have some ideas.
[16:21] <zzookk> Hello, guys. I can't press hotkeys in java window when keyboard layout is not US. How can i fix it?
[16:22] <akbarzaiem> hello
[16:22] <ducasse> zzookk: don't use java :-P more seriously, what java window?
[16:23] <ruffleS> Hello! I need help installing proper drivers for my notebook's (Dell XPS 14) hybrid graphics card
[16:24] <ruffleS> 01:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF117M [GeForce 610M/710M/810M/820M / GT 620M/625M/630M/720M] (rev a1)
[16:24] <ruffleS> 08:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6235 (rev 24)
[16:25] <diogenes_> ruffleS, what kernel?
[16:25] <zzookk> ducasse: Any java window. I cant even paste something with ctrl+v, when i have another keyboard layout
[16:25] <zzookk> java-app*
[16:25] <ruffleS> diogenes_: 4.8.0-22-generic
[16:25] <ducasse> zzookk: which jvm are you using?
[16:26] <BigMao> alkisg: After rebooting, the machine is no longer remotely accessible, so I'll have to drive there to check it out. I think the reboot should fix it though.
[16:26] <diogenes_> ruffleS, did you actually install the river?
[16:26] <diogenes_> driver*
[16:26] <ducasse> zzookk: and which ubuntu is this?
[16:27] <ruffleS> diogenes_: not really. i don't know which one i'm supposed to use. i think i'll try nvidia-367
[16:27] <zzookk> ducasse, java -version tells me that - openjdk 64-bit 1.8. ubuntu 16.04
[16:28] <diogenes_> ruffleS, in terminal run: sudo ubuntu-drivers list
[16:28] <ruffleS> diogenes_: it gives me the nvidia-340 but this one, from previous experiences, still gives me a non stopping fan and overheating pc
[16:29] <ducasse> zzookk: it _could_ be an openjdk bug, you could try searching launchpad and file a bug if you don't find an open one that sounds similar
[16:29] <diogenes_> ruffleS, is it nvidia optimus?
[16:29] <zzookk> oh :(
[16:29] <ruffleS> diogenes_: yes
[16:31] <Guest41463> hi
[16:31] <diogenes_> ruffleS, I have optimus myself and I'm using it with bumblebee and it's even more amazing performance than in used to run on windows with original driver, no fans, no overheating you just use your intel integrated for all the majority of work and you use nvidia only for heavy demanding stuff
[16:31] <ruffleS> diogenes_: how can i set it up then?
[16:32] <ruffleS> please tell me it's an apt-get away
[16:32] <diogenes_> ruffleS, wait,I'll find the info you might need
[16:32] <ruffleS> thanks
[16:32] <Guest41463> i have problem wich debian can someone help me?
[16:32] <ducasse> Guest41463: try #debian
[16:33] <diogenes_> ruffleS, look here: http://www.webupd8.org/2016/08/how-to-install-and-configure-bumblebee.html

[16:43] <pjgrep> I'm on trusty. My dns tries to resolve via ipv6 first, and takes a long time, before falling back to ipv4. Eg firefox, irc.
[16:43] <SebthreeBQM10HD> hi
[16:43] <pjgrep> also happened with apt-get, but that got fixed via forcing apt-get to use ipv4. So, how do I force ipv4
[16:44] <pjgrep> in general I mean
[16:48]  * pjgrep looks at http://askubuntu.com/questions/456008/slow-dns-lookup-after-upgrading-to-14-04
[16:49] <alkisg> pjgrep: go to network manager and in the ipv6 tab, put "local only"
[16:49] <SebthreeBQM10HD> pjgrep, afer upgrading to 14 .04 ?
[16:49] <SebthreeBQM10HD> that's the old lts
[16:50] <pjgrep> I'm not sure how this machine ended on trusty (lts). It may have been an upgrade to trusty lts.
[16:50] <Tex_Nick> pjgrep: have you looked in "Network Manager" to see if in the "IPv6 Settings" tab "Require IPv6 addressing for this connection to complete" is checked ?
[16:50] <SebthreeBQM10HD> !trusty
[16:50] <pjgrep> Tex_Nick, alkisg --  checking...
[16:51] <SebthreeBQM10HD> pjgrep, it can only upgrade to 14.04, if you upgraded from the unsupported 13.10  or th previous lts before that 12.04
[16:51] <pjgrep> SebthreeBQM10HD, that's understood.
[16:52] <pjgrep> I'm just not sure if it was a clean install or if I upgraded from unsupported or previous.
[16:52] <SebthreeBQM10HD> pjgrep, seems you got  internet issue I just joined, but yeah to the upgrades.  I would suggest upgrading to 16.04 lts though, even though 14.04 will be supported for another year or so yet
[16:52] <ruffleS> diogenes_: i'm rebooting the machine now. hope it works. cheers!
[16:53] <diogenes_> ok
[16:54] <SebthreeBQM10HD> pjgrep, and things dont just upgrde, someone has to tell it too, in response to 14.04 upgrade
[16:55] <pjgrep> HOw do I get to network manager? I've gone to      settings (cogwheel)  ---> system settings -->  hardware--> network ---> mobile broadband (which is what I am using now)
[16:55] <SebthreeBQM10HD> pjgrep, a clean install of 16.04 lts, might be a good way to go
[16:56] <pjgrep> SebthreeBQM10HD, yup. Just wanna try and fix this --- it's the only thing that is left bothering me for now. I can worry about upgrade to 16.04 later.
[16:57] <Tex_Nick> pjgrep: now click on Options ... bottom right
[16:58] <pjgrep> Tex_Nick, that's currently grayed out. presumable 'cos I'm using it :-/
[16:59] <pjgrep> I guess I should be going offline, and changing require ipv6 addressing, yeah?\
[16:59] <pjgrep> I'll give it a shot
[17:00]  * deldate hi guys
[17:00] <Tex_Nick> pjgrep: in terminal ... nm-connection-editor
[17:00]  * pjgrep checks nm-connection-editor
[17:01] <kaz> #ubuntu
[17:02] <Tex_Nick> pjgrep: click on your connection "Name" then "Edit"
[17:02] <dekon> is someone using mate? Looks like my Sound Effect -> Alert Volume level is not being saved
[17:03] <pjgrep> Tex_Nick, nm-connection-editor opened up a gui. I explored it, but saw no ipv6 items in the tabs
[17:07] <Tex_Nick> pjgrep: hmmm strange, on every 14.04 i've seen, this is what it looks like ... http://imgur.com/a/GiO0K
[17:08] <alkisg> Maybe he didn't yet click to edit his connection, and he's in the main dialog still...
[17:08]  * pjgrep waits patiently for imgur to resolve  ;-)
[17:09] <dekon> hmm same issue described here, no answer -> http://askubuntu.com/questions/886928/problem-with-alert-sound
[17:10]  * pjgrep checks dialog again...
[17:12] <pjgrep> Tex_Nick, I actually have no ipv6 tab. my tabs are: general | mobile broadband | ppp settings | ipv4 settings. And that's it, even afters stretching the window horizontally.
[17:13] <pjgrep> I guess it is some weirdness to do with connection method.
[17:13] <pjgrep> buried inside the isp offering.
[17:14] <ioria> pjgrep, no ipv6 tab ? you can check in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections  and  sudo cat my-connection
[17:15] <alkisg> pjgrep: if you want to completely disable ipv6, google for "disable ipv6 ubuntu", there's an easy method for it using sysctl
[17:16] <fotografoLombard> .it
[17:16] <pjgrep> ioria, it shows an ipv4 stanza, no ipv6
[17:17] <ioria> pjgrep, interesting
[17:17] <ioria> pjgrep, cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6
[17:18] <s0b> Morning all
[17:18] <pjgrep> ioria, thanks. I was waiting for alkisig's suggestion to resolve in its own sweet time in the browser ;-)
[17:19] <s0b> I've run into a situation where available drive space differs between df and du/ls. I have been unable to locate the offending files and directories
[17:20] <s0b> Does anybody have suggestions beyond lsof?
[17:23] <semitones_> hey what's the difference between putting something in /etc/crontab and doing sudo crontab -e?
[17:24] <s0b> harder to screw up the second one maybe ;)
[17:24] <alkisg> s0b: what file system? do you have big sparse files or big deleted files that are still in use?
[17:25] <linuxlove> hi
[17:25] <linuxlove> how are you guys?
[17:25] <s0b> ext4 and lsof gives me nada. I rebooted and mounted it on a live boot atm
[17:26] <linuxlove> i lost my connectivity through ssh because of wrong configuration
[17:26] <linuxlove> can i fix this?
[17:26] <alkisg> s0b:  Well, if you rebooted it's not a "deleted but in use" issue. What do you see with df and what with du?
[17:26] <semitones_> thanks s0b
[17:31] <s0b> alkisg, looks like counts total proper now :/
[17:31] <s0b> +/- 1G
[17:32] <ducasse> linuxlove: you mean you screwed up sshd config and now you can't connect?
[17:32] <linuxlove> ducasse, yes
[17:33] <linuxlove> i changed /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny to wrong configuration
[17:33] <tgm4883> linuxlove: remove those and restart SSH
[17:34] <linuxlove> tgm4883, i dont have access to server now
[17:34] <ducasse> linuxlove: is it a vps?
[17:34] <tgm4883> linuxlove: .... Then how do you expect to fix it?
[17:34] <linuxlove> ducasse, yes
[17:34] <ducasse> linuxlove: some providers give you console access
[17:35] <linuxlove> ducasse, can i fix in console?
[17:35] <linuxlove> i sent a ticket for provider
[17:35] <ducasse> linuxlove: if it will let you login, yes
[17:35] <tgm4883> linuxlove: if you made changes that broke something, logic would usually dictate that if you revert the changes you made it would work again
[17:36] <linuxlove> i am waiting for my provider response
[17:37] <ducasse> linuxlove: just see if they give you console access through webui
[17:38] <linuxlove> vps is on wmware
[17:39] <s0b> alkisg, is it possible im getting wierd problems because i have /var and a /var/lib/XXX
[17:39] <s0b> like two seperate partitions
[17:40] <s0b> i rebooted and df is telling me 16g /var, and 3.4g from /var/lib/xxx. du in /var is giving 4g total
[17:40] <s0b> but even 4 + 3.4 is half of 16
[17:41] <ducasse> s0b: there could be data in /var that /var/lib/xxx is mounted on top of
[17:42] <ducasse> s0b: so the remaining data in /var is hidden to du
[17:42] <s0b> i just umount, trying du again
[17:51] <ducasse> linuxlove: please keep your questions in the channel. i haven't looked at vmware in years, no idea what they offer or not today.
[17:53] <s0b> ducasse, thank you, that was indeed the issue.
[17:54] <ducasse> s0b: np
[18:00] <gpupassman> hi
[18:00] <gpupassman> can someone help me with gpupass_

[18:59] <arooni> help with installing ubutu?  i have a 120GB SSD drive; and 4GB of ram, core 2 duo processor.  1) should i make a swap parititon?  of 4GB?  2) should i split up my /home and / partition?  thanks!
[19:00] <batobin> Hello, does anyone know which services I can safely remove from default installation of Ubuntu 16.10?
[19:01] <OerHeks> !partitioning
[19:01] <OerHeks> arooni, let ubuntu do the partitioning, or read the wiki
[19:02] <Tex_Nick> La09x09: I don't use a screensaver or screenlock ... so not an issue for me, but if you need it then by all means install it ... http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2015/01/install-caffeine-indicator-ubuntu-14-04/
[19:02] <ducasse> batobin: that depends entirely on what you're going to use it for
[19:02] <batobin> Yes...I'd like a recent link for services I can safely disable...I don't use network and server...I'm trying to squeeze max performance from 3GB ram
[19:03] <arooni> do i want LVM with the new install?  seems like it will make parition resizing easier
[19:04] <ducasse> batobin: there is no such link as it is impossible to answer
[19:05] <La09x09> when I put the volume to maximum and then press volume keys on laptop, it goes back to medium(default) volume
[19:05] <La09x09> (1
[19:05] <La09x09> i.e. 100%. but I wanna put it more through volume keys just like I could on settings
[19:05] <batobin> ducasse: would deleting unnecassary packages achieve the same effect?
[19:05] <vlt> arooni: Yes, use swap. LVM is nice and also on nearly every of my machines. But it depends on what you intend to do with that computer-.
[19:06] <ducasse> batobin: of course, but you still need to determine what you need and not
[19:06] <Bashing-om> arooni: You been around here long enough to know that how you set up your system is particulat to "your" use . SSD install, I did the homework and I went with a standard install ( leaving 25% of the SSD unformatted ) // Swap . depends on your use case and your history of how nuch/many times sweap is hot . I have run with as little as 7 Megs of swap with no issues .
[19:09] <arooni> yeah ; i'm setting this up for my mom
[19:09] <arooni> don't want to mess it up; because shes not going to mess with the finer points of linux/ubuntu
[19:09] <texla> Ubuntu-16.04.1 trying to change the first boot to Ubuntu in the grub menu. The command i was told to use takes /etcc/default /grub to the nano editor. I can change the required entry from zero to "Ubuntu" but then I don't know how to save and exit from nano. What I try returns file modified not saved!!!
[19:10] <OerHeks> arooni, then don't bother with LVM and partitioning
[19:10] <qkzoo1978> Alt+tab lets me switch between open windows.  If I have 4 open terminals is there a shortcut to switch just between the terminal windows and not everything else I have open?
[19:11] <OerHeks> qkzoo1978, no. hold the win key to see all shortkeys.
[19:11] <sdfsffasfsdf> guys can someone help me with the next error? https://imgur.com/a/zhloF
[19:11] <MonkeyDust> qkzoo1978  alt-tab makes you switch to the previously opened window
[19:12] <OerHeks> sdfsffasfsdf, just hit continue, or cancel ?
[19:12] <vlt> qkzoo1978: Try if Alt+^ (the key right over Tab) does what you want.
[19:12] <MonkeyDust> qkzoo1978  you can also work wirh different workspaces
[19:13] <qkzoo1978> Ya, I never grasped workspaces.  Perhaps I should look into it when I have 10 different windows open.
[19:14] <sdfsffasfsdf> OerHeks: i know that the thing is I want to fix those problems of packages etc
[19:14] <MonkeyDust> qkzoo1978  ctrl-alt-arrow right
[19:14] <Auprivave> qkzoo1978, use i3 ;)
[19:14] <qkzoo1978> i3?
[19:14] <ducasse> sdfsffasfsdf: then let it report the problem
[19:15] <vlt> qkzoo1978: Mind the “;)”
[19:15] <sdfsffasfsdf> ducasse: already did that :(
[19:15] <OerHeks> sdfsffasfsdf, unlikely you can.
[19:15] <sdfsffasfsdf> OerHeks: why?
[19:15] <ducasse> sdfsffasfsdf: what do you mean you want to fix it? fix the code?
[19:16] <qkzoo1978> Thanks for your help, I'll try playing around with workspaces and like the win(super) thing, didn't realize that!
[19:16] <alkisg> texla: what do you mean? Isn't ubuntu the default grub option anyway?
[19:17] <qkzoo1978> How do you send an open window to another workspace?
[19:17] <Auprivave> qkzoo1978, i3 window manager. sure, takes some time setting up, but worth cheking out. windows can float as well, in cases where stacking works better.
[19:17] <sdfsffasfsdf> ducasse: I mean I need to stop having the problems, because each time I boot the same problems appear
[19:18] <qkzoo1978> Auprivave: I appreciate the suggestion
[19:18] <texla> alkisg, It highlites another program first then I HAVE TO SHIFT TO uBUNTU

[19:19] <texla> alkisg, Linuxlite is the other program installed if I could save and exit nano it should change the /etc/defailt/grub
[19:20] <joci> when i start to whatch movie my screen starts to turn off for one secund then it comes back, what might couse this anying issue ?
[19:20] <alkisg> texla: what's the output of this command? ls -l /etc/grub.d | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:20] <Auprivave> any nginx lovers her?  listen 80 default_server;
[19:20] <Auprivave>     listen [::]:80 default_server; in my block. systemctl reports: nginx: [emerg] a duplicate default server for 0.0.0.0:80 in /etc/nginx/sites-ena.....
[19:21] <Auprivave> is that an ssl config issue?
[19:21] <Auprivave> running on ubuntu 16.04 docker image.
[19:22] <Tex_Nick> qkzoo1978: try right clicking on window title bar then from contet menu ... "Move to another workspace"
[19:23] <texla> alkisg, http://termbin.com/7f5g
[19:24] <alkisg> texla: it's possible that your mbr is managed by linuxlite's grub, not by ubuntu's grub. Do you mind uploading your grub.cfg? cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:24] <ducasse> texla: isn't there a listing of commands at the bottom in nano?
[19:25] <texla> ducasse, There is a list but does not work as listed
[19:26] <joci> when i start to whatch movie my screen starts to turn off for one secund then it comes back, what might couse this anying issue ?
[19:26] <ducasse> texla: ctrl+o does not write?
[19:27] <alkisg> ducasse: I think that he's using the boot manager of linuxlite
[19:27] <alkisg> (grub again, but on a different partition, different grub.cfg etc)
[19:27] <alkisg> Otherwise ubuntu would be first
[19:28] <alkisg> So in this case, he'd need to grub-install from ubuntu, and then tell linuxlite not to manage mbr
[19:28] <alkisg> texla, can you upload this? cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:29] <kaz> HI all! I haven't used Linux in many years so I'm relearning. I use to use Mandrake. Does anyone have any quick tips for me
[19:29] <alkisg> Yes, this is #ubuntu support :)
[19:29] <texla> alkisg, http://termbin.com/vnvj
[19:30] <glitchd> is there a way to make the screen lock when resuming from suspend without lightlocker?
[19:31] <alkisg> texla: so, ubuntu is first there, and linuxlite is correctly detected. Do this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
[19:31] <alkisg> texla: this will make ubuntu's grub manage the mbr, so you'll see the ubuntu grub menu, with ubuntu first
[19:31] <Auprivave> kaz, depends on what the goal is.
[19:32] <kaz> ok first i would like a terminal on my desktop
[19:32] <alkisg> texla: but in the future, linuxlite might take over mbr again, so after the dpkg-reconfigure command, you need to go to linuxlite and tell it not to install its grub to mbr
[19:32] <texla> alkisg, I had grub 0.97 in Ubuntu and was told to install grub-pc which i did from synaptic now Ubuntu is first in the grub list but when changing default from 0 to Ubuntu it does not change in list to boot UBUNTU FIRST
[19:33] <alkisg> texla: it does not change it because you installed linuxlite and you are using grub from linuxlite, not from ubuntu
[19:33] <alkisg> Do the dpkg-reconfigure command that I said, to fix it
[19:35] <alkisg> texla: when you see grub, if it's purple, then it's ubuntu's grub. If it's not purple, it's linuxlite's grub.
[19:35] <texla> alkisg, /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: grub-pc is broken or not fully installed
[19:36] <alkisg> texla: what's the output of this? dpkg -l '*grub*' | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:36] <texla> alkisg, Reinstall of grub-pc gives a 127 error
[19:37] <Auprivave> kaz, ubuntu is its deb you are after. Fedora is its rpm. and Manjaro if Arch is your thing.
[19:37] <alkisg> (also, how you had grub 0.97 in ubuntu 16.04 is beyond me :D)
[19:37] <Auprivave> kaz, if its not for production, it doesnt matter what you choose
[19:39] <kaz> thanks Auprivave what about gentoo?
[19:39] <ducasse> kaz: we support ubuntu. if you want help choosing a distro, try ##linux
[19:40] <kaz> Thanks again Auprivave
[19:40] <kaz> ##linux
[19:41] <joci> when i start to whatch movie my screen starts to turn off for one secund then it comes back, what might couse this anying issue ?
[19:42] <glitchd> is it necessary to have lightlocker installed to have the screen lock itself after suspend?
[19:42] <texla> alkisg, http://termbin.com/2z7m
[19:42] <Auprivave> kaz, its perfectly alright to ask here, since most distros are based on Ubuntu nowdays. if you have been away from linux, Ubuntu is a safe bet.
[19:44] <alkisg> texla: can you run `sudo apt-get install -f`, and put the whole output to paste.ubuntu.com, and give us the link? For some reason your grub installation failed.
[19:44] <glitchd> possibly specified the wrong place to install grub..
[19:45] <glitchd> before you paste the output, how about showing the actual command u used?
[19:48] <texla> alkisg, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24112440/
[19:49] <alkisg> texla: you put the letter "o" instead of "0" in the configuration file
[19:50] <glitchd> geezus.
[19:51] <Boneripper> hello
[19:51] <glitchd> yo
[19:51] <texla> alkisg, please give me the correct command
[19:52] <glitchd> same command, but use a 0(zero) instead of an o(letter o)
[19:52] <Boneripper> can someone please explain if deleting this will cause an issue..N: Ignoring file '50unattended-upgrades.ucf-old' in directory '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension
[19:53] <glitchd> Boneripper, i dont see why it would, its an old version of a file. a file thats more than likely been replaced.
[19:54] <texla> glitchd, Do not know which command to change o to 0
[19:54] <Boneripper> thank you glitchd
[19:54] <glitchd> Boneripper, if unsure, just move it somewhere else and then reboot
[19:54] <Boneripper> could you pse tell me the command for removing the files through terminal from my system?
[19:54] <Boneripper> thank you.
[19:54] <alkisg> texla: sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[19:54] <alkisg> texla: there, replace the letter "o" with zero, "0"
[19:55] <alkisg> Then run sudo apt-get install -f again
[19:55] <glitchd> yes, and yes.
[19:55] <glitchd> Boneripper, what file manager are you using?
[19:56] <Boneripper> naulitus
[19:56] <ayycaramba> This channel doesnt need you to be identified anymore?
[19:56] <glitchd> Boneripper, press "alt+F2" then enter "gksu nautilus"
[19:56] <Boneripper> i think... ?
[19:56] <glitchd> Boneripper, then locate the file and either delete it or just move it.
[19:57] <ayycaramba> Question: On unix I'm creating new files and folders in the root directory of a wordpress install, but when I try to access those folders/files I just get a 404. It's not a permission issue.
[19:57] <Bashing-om> ayycaramba: Correct, this channel does not require registration .
[19:57] <glitchd> Boneripper, easiest way to figure out the file manager is to open one and go to the help menu and click about
[19:57] <batobin> Can I hide Ubuntu top panel??????
[19:58] <glitchd> batobin, yes.
[19:58] <ducasse> ayycaramba: on 'unix'?
[19:58] <Auprivave> ayycaramba, did you chown -r ?
[19:58] <glitchd> batobin, right click top panel, go down to panel then to panel preferences, then its like the 3rd option down
[19:59] <texla> alkisg, Still cannot exit nano correctly or save the file
[19:59] <alkisg> texla: ok, run: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
[19:59] <ducasse> texla: what happens when you press ctrl+o?
[19:59] <Boneripper> it jsut says "files"
[19:59] <alkisg> texla: but remember to use sudo...
[19:59] <glitchd> texla, do you have gedit installed? use that instead of nano if u cant figure out nano
[19:59] <batobin> glitchd: I cannot right-click the panel
[20:00] <Boneripper> but i deleted it , see what happens when i run the sudo apt-upgrade command
[20:00] <batobin> Im on Unity btw
[20:00] <batobin> I want it to hide or autohide when fullscreen
[20:00] <Boneripper> sweet, no more err msgs
[20:00] <glitchd> batobin, omg sry for the confusion, i didnt even think to as what dm you were using
[20:01] <Boneripper> is there any chance i can hide all the system messages on irc.. like who has quit and joined etc?
[20:01] <glitchd> batobin, i dont use unity, so im not positive on how to accomplish what you want, sry again.
[20:01] <glitchd> Boneripper, yep, ill see if i can find the setting real quick
[20:02] <batobin> glitchd: it's fine! I kinda guessed you might be referring to some other dm cuz they make it that easy
[20:02] <ducasse> !quietirc | batobin
[20:02] <Boneripper> thank you
[20:03] <glitchd> Boneripper, https://odd.blog/2012/10/10/hide-the-annoying-bits-in-xchat/

[20:04] <rabbitnightmare> is there a version of Ubuntu with nvidia graphics drivers in place so I can install it properly on my machine
[20:04] <rabbitnightmare> xorg crashes when trying to boot with the gtx 1070
[20:04] <rabbitnightmare> my motherboard does not have IGP at all
[20:04] <glitchd> rabbitnightmare, im pretty sure no version of linux comes with nvidia graphics drivers pre-installed..
[20:04] <rabbitnightmare> I know there used to be
[20:05] <ayycaramba> ducasse, Yeah.
[20:05] <glitchd> rabbitnightmare, i could be wrong, but like i said, im pretty sure..
[20:05] <ayycaramba> nah Auprivave I'll see about doing that
[20:05] <rabbitnightmare> glitchd: I was not arguing so much as hoping lol
[20:05] <rabbitnightmare> I hate doing things from the cli I know I can I just dont like to
[20:05] <glitchd> rabbitnightmare, its all good =)
[20:06] <rabbitnightmare> hogh end hardware and Linux don't seem to get along sadly it seems still
[20:06] <rabbitnightmare> high*
[20:07] <glitchd> rabbitnightmare, maybe you can get a clue as to why its crashing with dmesg?
[20:07] <rabbitnightmare> graphics card not supported without the blob
[20:07] <glitchd> blob?
[20:07] <rabbitnightmare> ill be back later to think about this its my anniversary

[20:32] <terrible> hey someone can help completely uninstall plexmediaserver everytime the system boot give me this error
[20:32] <terrible> http://picpaste.com/Screenshot_from_2017-03-04_16-28-42-e4wi46Ib.png
[20:33] <terrible> im using ubuntu xenial 16.04
[20:34] <Booperdooper> Hey, I am using Ubuntu GNOME 16.04.2 LTS GPT.
[20:34] <Booperdooper> Is there a way to make GRUB use BIOS instead of UFEI for
[20:34] <Booperdooper> ...boot
[20:35] <ramadhan> ls
[20:36] <Booperdooper> My BIOS will let me boot Ubuntu if I select it from the boot menu, but it wont boot without intrferance and the BIOS wont let me alter it >.>
[20:36] <bekks> Booperdooper: Interference of what?
[20:36] <Booperdooper> I have to press F10 and select ``ubuntu"
[20:37] <agrecascino> hello
[20:37] <agrecascino> i'm on armhf ubuntu 14.04
[20:37] <ComputingComet> hello all
[20:37] <Booperdooper> I mean, like, I cant boot without explicitly.telling it to look at UFEI...
[20:37] <ioria> anddam, the unicode is 2022 ( ctrl+shift  and press 2022)
[20:37] <agrecascino> and when i share a device(a microphone) in firefox, the browser immediately crashes
[20:38] <agrecascino> any ideas on what's wrong?
[20:40] <Booperdooper> Basically, I want to make GRUB use the legacy mode and not try to boot from UFEI, but I really dont want to reinstall if i can help it.
[20:40] <mikey> somehow my user was removed from the sudoers file
[20:41] <terrible> hey someone can help completely uninstall plexmediaserver everytime the system boot give me this error
[20:41] <Guest98890> can i recover from being removed from the sudoers file if it's my only user?
[20:41] <Whiskey> im not so good at linux, is this good ? http://codepad.org/pn96qxAM
[20:41] <terrible> http://picpaste.com/Screenshot_from_2017-03-04_16-28-42-e4wi46Ib.png
[20:41] <terrible> im using ubuntu xenial 16.04
[20:41] <Guest98890> can ubuntu recovery get my user back
[20:41] <Whiskey> As 142MiB don´t seems to be anything but i don´t know how linux use its memory
[20:42] <anddam> ioria: ah thanks, I didn't know how that was called
[20:42] <bekks> Whiskey: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/
[20:42] <anddam> ioria: no "smart" shortcut for that, eh?
[20:42] <anddam> •
[20:42] <ioria> anddam, really don't know.... yo can make a script and call it with a shortcut
[20:43] <Guest98890> I'm really stuck right now, does anyone know how I can save my system?
[20:43] <Whiskey> bekks: problem is that my server dies after a month cuz it don´t have any RAM to spare
[20:44] <Guest98890> i can't even scp in a working one without a sudo user
[20:44] <Whiskey> so it get out of ram
[20:44] <bekks> Whiskey: So configure a swap area.
[20:44] <bekks> Guest98890: what happened actually, and what are you trying to do?
[20:45] <Guest98890> bekks: i closed an ssh session on my desktop, moved to my laptop, tried to install tmux to find my only user is magically no longer in my sudoers file
[20:45] <anddam> ioria: no easy keymap ressignment in GNOME/Unity, right?
[20:45] <Whiskey> bekks: you think thats who makes it out of ram?
[20:45] <anddam> Settings > Keyboard > Custom shortcuts only allows for Unity actions to be targeted
[20:45] <bekks> Whiskey: ?
[20:45] <Guest98890> i rebooted my server by hand, went back to my laptop, ssh'd in and still no sudo
[20:45] <Whiskey> and make it crash
[20:45] <bekks> Guest98890: I dont believe in magic.
[20:45] <Guest98890> bekks: can i login as root from recovery mode to add my user to the sudoers file
[20:46] <Guest98890> bekks: the last thing i was doing was messing around in /var/www/*
[20:46] <Guest98890> and this server doesn't have incoming ports other than 22
[20:46] <anddam> Guest98890: yes you can but please use longer sentences, your issue was quite scattered around
[20:46] <bekks> Guest98890: so you messed up your sudoers file before ;) I'd use the recovery mode for fixing it.
[20:47] <Booperdooper> Anyone got any ideas for my EFI -> BIOS conversion
[20:47] <anddam> bekks: then you should read "Off to be a Wizard (Magic 2.0)"
[20:47] <Guest98890> bekks: anddam , not sure how. it has 440 perms but I wasn't touching /etc last session. I coudn't find a guide on google
[20:47] <anddam> Booperdooper: my idea is "why even?"
[20:47] <bekks> Booperdooper: configure your system for using BIOS or UEFI.
[20:48] <Guest98890> bekks: does recovery mode boot into root? because i never configured a p/w for root so i can't log into it without sudo
[20:49] <Booperdooper> Anddam because the PC is 10 years old, and despite it supporting UFEI, the dumb developers of the BIOS didnt think allowing it to directly boot to a UFEI partiton was needed without using the boot menu :P
[20:49] <amin> how to convert a regex from egrep to grep?
[20:49] <shanky_> hey is there someone who used cuckoosandbox?
[20:49] <bekks> shanky_: No.
[20:49] <shanky_> :(
[20:50] <mikey1> bekks: dropped connection
[20:50] <Booperdooper> I dont want to press "F10 + DOWN × 9 + Enter" every time I boot :P
[20:51] <mikey1> Booperdooper: are you using grub or systemd-boot
[20:51] <Booperdooper> Grub i believe
[20:51] <mikey1> you can control that list, you can choose the default as well
[20:52] <Booperdooper> Idk, whatever ubuntu-gnome 16.04.2 LTS ships with
[20:52] <mikey1> do you have a bunch of duplicate kernel listings?
[20:52] <mikey1> grub-efi
[20:52] <Booperdooper> Okay!
[20:52] <mikey1> are you dual or triple booting?
[20:52] <Booperdooper> I have removed the EFI partition, but I cant suss out which partition type in fdisk to replace with. Single boot.
[20:52] <mikey1> i never had to do that with grub before
[20:53] <coffeeguy> boot into live cd/usb and reload grub?
[20:53] <mikey1> does grub need an mbr partition in legacy biod?
[20:53] <mikey1> bios
[20:54] <Booperdooper> I think so
[20:54] <mikey1> bekks: i added my user to a www-data group
[20:54] <Booperdooper> It needs some boot partition, right?
[20:54] <mikey1> i think that at the same time removed me from sudoers group
[20:55] <Booperdooper> Also, I am using LVM if that means anything
[20:56] <coffeeguy> can anything be done in bios, sometimes there's and ubuntu boot in the bios boot order option
[20:56] <Booperdooper> CoffeeGuy yep, but I cant make it default
[20:56] <coffeeguy> hmm
[20:57] <Booperdooper> Seems like an oversight on the BIOS dev's part.
[20:57] <coffeeguy> try f11 while booting?
[20:57] <mikey1> what is the proper permission for the sudoers file
[20:58] <mikey1> can someone check their system for me
[20:58] <Booperdooper> CoffeeGuy I can if I use the boot menu, it is just rather annoying to press F10+Down 9 times+enter

[21:32] <CaLone> hello. my firewall denies access on this server and on pychess Fics servers to.. i tried to ad the ports whit ufw allow but still have to disable it for actualy tipe here on irc and play whit pychess..
[21:37] <joserc87> Hello
[21:43] <patriotar15> coffeeguy, ?
[21:44] <coffeeguy> hmm not sure :(
[21:44] <coffeeguy> not sure how you got to where you are either
[21:44] <coffeeguy> i mean what did you do?
[21:44] <patriotar15> well
[21:45] <coffeeguy> start from the beginning?
[21:45] <patriotar15> i tried installing drivers for My stupid video card.... and it kept giving me an error about Xserver needing to be shut down. so i looked into how to shut down xserver
[21:45] <coffeeguy> logout and login i would think
[21:46] <bekks> patriotar15: And which card do you have, and which drivers did you try to install?
[21:46] <bekks> login/logout will not stop the X server.
[21:46] <coffeeguy> ok noted
[21:46] <bekks> Shutting down the X server will.
[21:46] <patriotar15> right ...
[21:46] <patriotar15> but x server seems to be running
[21:46] <bekks> patriotar15: So you did not stop it.
[21:47] <esp> hi all
[21:47] <patriotar15> how do i turn xserver back on?
[21:47] <bekks> patriotar15: How did you stop it?
[21:47] <patriotar15> i ran init 3
[21:48] <bekks> patriotar15: which Ubuntu do you use?
[21:48] <patriotar15> http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/25668/how-to-close-x-server-to-avoid-errors-while-updating-nvidia-driver
[21:48] <patriotar15> i followed these instructions
[21:48] <patriotar15> 16.04
[21:48] <patriotar15> i think
[21:48] <bekks> patriotar15: Please double check.
[21:49] <coffeeguy> thanks bekks :)
[21:49]  * coffeeguy reboots
[21:50] <patriotar15> i may have hit ctrol alt f1
[21:51] <bekks> patriotar15: So stop the lightdm and restart it.
[21:51] <bekks> *lightdm service
[21:51] <patriotar15> how do i cehck my linux version?
[21:51] <bekks> patriotar15: lsb_release -a
[21:52] <patriotar15> yes i have 16.04.2lts
[21:53] <patriotar15> ok so I typed "lightdm service"
[21:53] <bekks> patriotar15: that wont work.
[21:53] <patriotar15> display is still not showing any other supported resolutions other than that blasted 1024 by 768
[21:53] <bekks> patriotar15: sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm stop
[21:54] <bekks> patriotar15: sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm start
[21:54] <patriotar15> ok
[21:54] <patriotar15> so it ummm
[21:55] <patriotar15> brought me to a black screen with a command line
[21:55] <bekks> So start the lightdm service again.
[21:55] <patriotar15> dev/sda1:clean 297041/15261696 files, 10877892/61034752 blocks
[21:56] <S0bait> Hi guys
[21:56] <patriotar15> it wont let me type anything into it
[21:56] <joserc87> Hi S0bait
[21:56] <bekks> patriotar15: So press ctrl alt f1 and start the lightdm service.
[21:56] <S0bait> First ubuntu arm install, i login with ubuntu, ubuntu as username and password, asked to change my password, but when i change it it doesnt change the password
[21:58] <S0bait> What can i do?
[21:59] <joserc87> S0bait: What is the error exactly?
[21:59] <bekks> S0bait: Open a terminal, and just use passwd
[21:59] <S0bait> bekks: how can i do that i cant even login
[22:00] <patriotar15> ok so i restarted lightdm service, back to desktop, checked display settings, still no other dresolutions
[22:01] <bekks> patriotar15: How did you update your nvidia drivers?
[22:01] <bekks> S0bait: you said you logged in?
[22:02] <patriotar15> ok
[22:02] <patriotar15> i wasnt able to bekks
[22:02] <patriotar15> it kept telling me that xserver was running
[22:02] <S0bait> @bekks I have "ubuntu login:"  i put in username and password and immediately asked to change the password as it has expired.
[22:03] <S0bait> bekks: ^^ additionally, when I put in the password it just says an error and then refreshes the screen back to that.
[22:03] <bekks> S0bait: WHICH error? :)
[22:03] <patriotar15> so when I tried that command again... and typed the whole /etc/init.d/lightdm stop/start
[22:03] <bekks> patriotar15: stop stops it, then you install the driver, then you start lightdm.
[22:04] <S0bait> bekks: "passwd: Authentication token manipulation error"
[22:05] <patriotar15> well when i did the start portion, it came up with this code.
[22:05] <patriotar15> http://pastebin.com/7adeHTUA
[22:05] <bekks> patriotar15: So do what it tells you to do.
[22:07] <patriotar15> pastebin.com/Tqu0Js7k
[22:08] <bekks> patriotar15: So what else did you do for breaking your X server?
[22:08] <patriotar15> do i have to redownload xserver?
[22:08] <patriotar15> remove it and replace?
[22:08] <Soyboy> Hi, I have the Razer Blade Stealth with Ubuntu GNOME installed and when I close the lid, the laptop suspends, however when I reopen it, it continues to suspend every 5 seconds. I found a file that logs the lid state and on first boot it says it's open, but after I close the lid and open it again, it continues to report that it's closed. Any suggestions?
[22:09] <S0bait> bekks: then it just turns the screen black and refreshed back to the ubuntu login prompt. If you are not sure i can take a picture?
[22:09] <bekks> patriotar15: No.
[22:09] <bekks> patriotar15: Thats not how things work on Linux.
[22:10] <bekks> patriotar15: You need to uninstall the driver you installed, following the uninstallation guidelines in the documentation shipped with the driver.
[22:11] <Mathisen> S0bait, reboot into recovery, then first " mount -o remount,rw / " then try to set a password " passwd whoever
[22:11] <bekks> S0bait: Is that a new installation?
[22:11] <patriotar15> http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/25668/how-to-close-x-server-to-avoid-errors-while-updating-nvidia-driver
[22:11] <bekks> patriotar15: Please stop spamming that stackexchange crap. Thank you.
[22:11] <patriotar15> i typed sudo init 3
[22:11] <bekks> patriotar15: I told you what to do already.
[22:11] <myk_> Is ubuntu a good choice for hosting static web apps? Wondering how hard securing nginx is...
[22:12] <bekks> myk_: As hard as securing it on other linux distributions.
[22:12] <patriotar15> the driver never installed, it kept telling me unable to install
[22:12] <S0bait> bekks: Yes brand new installation. I have downloaded the .img file from the ubuntu website, and i have installed using the same image like 15 times now :P
[22:12] <bekks> patriotar15: And still, you broke your X server.
[22:13] <bekks> S0bait: Which hardware do you use?
[22:14] <Soyboy>   h2wp,9oh}Bs%t?Xh
[22:14] <S0bait> bekks: I have a raspberry pi 3. I alrady used this image to install and get it working, but i had messed up something in my setup and i wanted to reinstall; but since then, its been like this.
[22:15] <patriotar15> screw it
[22:15] <patriotar15> im going to format my OS
[22:15] <patriotar15> and start over
[22:15] <bekks> !language | patriotar15
[22:15] <Soyboy> Hi, I have the Razer Blade Stealth with Ubuntu GNOME installed and when I close the lid, the laptop suspends, however when I reopen it, it continues to suspend every 5 seconds. I found a file that logs the lid state and on first boot it says it's open, but after I close the lid and open it again, it continues to report that it's closed. Any suggestions?
[22:15] <patriotar15> oops
[22:16] <bekks> S0bait: I'd use this instead: https://ubuntu-mate.org/blog/ubuntu-mate-for-raspberry-pi-3/
[22:17] <S0bait> bekks: what's the difference?
[22:17] <bekks> S0bait: The link given works :D
[22:17] <S0bait> HAHAHA
[22:18] <S0bait> So just incase i miscommunicated, i was using this" ubuntu-16.04-preinstalled-server-armhf+raspi3.img"
[22:18] <S0bait> i'll try that now.
[22:18] <Mathisen> i would try booting into recovery first, your problem is most likely that you somehow managed to mount as read only
[22:19] <patriotar15> see the biggest issue I had with ubuntu, is the fact tha tit doesnt seem to support my video card at all when it boots up
[22:19] <bekks> patriotar15: Then you wouldnt see anything.
[22:20] <patriotar15> i have to type "nomodeset" everytime
[22:20] <blue_cheese> Hullo
[22:20] <Mathisen> patriotar15, what card ?
[22:20] <patriotar15> gtx970
[22:20] <bekks> patriotar15: You have to put that option into your grub config.
[22:20] <bekks> !nomodeset | patriotar15
[22:21] <patriotar15> i know, but i had to enter it *EVERYTIME* i booted
[22:21] <bencc1> how can I find what package provides the "ip route" command?
[22:21] <patriotar15> Im going to log into windows... format the linux drive... and just do a clean reinstall *Sighs*
[22:21] <bekks> patriotar15: Please read the link given, it explains on how to configure your system so you dont have to type it everytime.
[22:22] <bekks> patriotar15: you dont need windows for reinstalling linux.
[22:22] <rx-bad> i cant install java
[22:22] <rx-bad> i cant install java, pls help me
[22:22] <patriotar15> i do, since when i try to boot off of grub, it blanks out my screen... so i can't even run the installation media
[22:23] <bekks> !java | rx-bad
[22:23] <patriotar15> it blanks my screen *AND* my screen shuts off due to no input
[22:23] <rx-bad> thanks
[22:23] <bekks> patriotar15: so put the nomodeset option into the kernel options when booting the installation medium.
[22:24] <patriotar15> ok... so .... i select the boot drive...  and then what do I do immediately after that?
[22:25] <bekks> patriotar15: Did you readthe link I just gave you? I doubt that :)
[22:25] <Jordan_U> patriotar15: Are you booting via BIOS or via UEFI?
[22:31] <patriotar15> i believe it is uefi,
[22:31] <patriotar15> bekks, I read the link... I missed the part about permanentizing the nomodeset
[22:32] <patriotar15> by missing it, i meant the other time i read that link before you linked me
[22:35] <patriotar15> so what is the best way to install nvidia drivers then?
[22:35] <patriotar15> so i dont kill xserver next time?
[22:37] <bekks> patriotar15: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[22:42] <foodSurprise> does anyone know of an app for the Canvas learning management system
[22:42] <foodSurprise> for college students? It has a sane API and is open source...one would think there would be
[22:42] <patriotar15> ok i just finished reinstalling ubuntu, im back att the desktop... went to display, it still doesnt have my desired resolution,... should I install Xserver? or the driverS?
[22:47] <koleygr> patriotar15, you can check if there are drivers suggested drivers in software and updates
[22:48] <koleygr> it is in the tab additional drivers
[22:50] <patriotar15> darn
[22:51] <patriotar15> Wish I had knwn about that on my *FIRST* installation of ubuntu...the appropriate nvidia binary driver showed up right away
[22:51] <backbox> hi
[22:52] <backbox> hi world
[22:52] <bazhang> backbox, ubuntu support issue?
[22:52] <backbox> umm.. no, i dont think so.. im not sure i should be here, just would like to talk to fellow human beings
[22:53] <bazhang> #ubuntu-offtopic for chatter backbox
[22:54] <backbox> can anyone see or hear me>
[22:54] <backbox> ?
[22:54] <bazhang> backbox, /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:54] <backbox> okay
[22:54] <bazhang> backbox, this channel is support only, not chit chat
[22:54] <patriotar15> bekks, according to the nomodeset instructions you linked me too... installing the proprietary drivers (Which I am doing right now) should make nomodeset unnecessary
[22:55] <backbox> how do i join ubuntu-offtopic
[22:55] <backbox> ?
[22:55] <ChadTaljaardt> can someone explain somethign to me, what does the yes command do?
[22:55] <ikonia> ChadTaljaardt: in what context
[22:56] <ChadTaljaardt> i type in yes into the terminal, and i get a weird output lol
[22:56] <ChadTaljaardt> wait ill take a video
[22:56] <ikonia> I don't need a video
[22:56] <ChadTaljaardt> https://cl.ly/2T0n2t0Q0E0r
[22:56] <ikonia> it outputs "y" or "confirm"
[22:57] <backbox> okay i will find a chit-chat channel. sorry to waste time.
[22:57] <ChadTaljaardt> ikonia that doesnt explain the video :/
[22:57] <ikonia> ChadTaljaardt: it does
[22:57] <ChadTaljaardt> unless i dont understand haha
[22:58] <ChadTaljaardt> i cant even do anything with the terminal now except close it haha, ctrl+c doesnt stop it haha
[22:59] <ikonia> ctrl+c stops it just fine
[22:59] <ChadTaljaardt> not for me?
[23:00] <rafal> hello
[23:00] <ChadTaljaardt> im so confused haha, why is this happening
[23:01] <ChadTaljaardt> does it do the same for everyone else?
[23:01] <patriotar15> Is there a way to disallow my Linux OS from accessing my Windows hard drive?
[23:01] <ikonia> a.) why are you blindly typing "yes" b.) why what is happening ? it's doing exactly what it should
[23:01] <Guest55742> exit
[23:01] <OerHeks> ChadTaljaardt, maybe on a mac c
[23:01] <OerHeks> * mac keyboard?
[23:02] <ikonia> ctrl+c works fine to terminate yes on a mac
[23:02] <ChadTaljaardt> ikonia why does it spam the letter y when i type in yes?
[23:02] <ikonia> ChadTaljaardt: I just told you why earlier
[23:02] <ikonia> ChadTaljaardt: read the man page
[23:02] <ChadTaljaardt> im using a mac but ssh into ubuntu
[23:03] <Soyboy> Hi, I have the Razer Blade Stealth with Ubuntu GNOME installed and when I close the lid, the laptop suspends, however when I reopen it, it continues to suspend every 5 seconds. I found a file that logs the lid state and on first boot it says it's open, but after I close the lid and open it again, it continues to report that it's closed. Any suggestions?
[23:03] <ChadTaljaardt> ahh okay
[23:03] <S0bait> bekks: It works, so far. I got everything up and running. But my team for my final yearproject, assumed i was installing ubuntu.. :P
[23:04] <S0bait> bekks: also will everything that i can install on ubuntu will be installable on this clone?
[23:07] <OerHeks> Soyboy, quick find, Intel's Management Engine Interface. / answer #5 https://insider.razerzone.com/index.php?threads/razer-blade-stealth-linux.11334/
[23:10] <FireBeard> for a very long time user of both linux and Ubuntu, I have a really stupid question... I have about a gazillion kernels in my /boot which -I guess- makes my boot slower, can I just delete some of them...?
[23:11] <FireBeard> I m really out of practice on this one, anybody care to assist?
[23:11] <FireBeard> can I just delete all but the two most recent ones?
[23:12] <S0bait> bekks: I had to use command `raspi-config` to which opened up like an old DOS looking gui from which i had to enable ssh service, can i do this via command line?
[23:13] <abdollah> hello i have problem using the last ubuntu os on my asus computer it's freezing
[23:13] <S0bait> bekks: http://prntscr.com/eg3l4y this is what i mean
[23:14] <OerHeks> FireBeard, sudo apt autoremove # this shoudl take care of old kernels except current and previous one.
[23:14] <FireBeard> OerHeks: !!!! :) :)
[23:14] <OerHeks> :-D
[23:14] <FireBeard> wow, awesome, thanks, I'll try that now :D
[23:15] <FireBeard> including the #?
[23:15] <OerHeks> no the # is comment
[23:15] <OerHeks> should not harm, though
[23:20] <S0bait> bekks: I think i figured it out, I found the source code of the gui so i 'll just copy the code.
[23:21] <FireBeard> thanks OerHeks, you still da man ;)
[23:21] <FireBeard> and if this breaks my install, I will find and tickle you till you pee your pants
[23:21] <FireBeard> so there
[23:22] <OerHeks> yah, that is the problem, you know where i live so i gave the shortcut to fix it :-)
[23:25] <FireBeard> hihi
[23:25] <FireBeard> I actually executed your command, before rebooting [because of a new kernel install]
[23:25] <FireBeard> I may have ruined this install, we'll see
[23:28] <Bashing-om> FireBeard: "autoremove" will not cause harm in and of it's self . If there is a problem, you had deeper and graver problems to start with :)
[23:29] <FireBeard> Bashing-om: I should have known all this, or be able to look it up in the man pages or google it at least
[23:30] <FireBeard> I've become nothing more than a pure user now
[23:30] <Tex_Nick> OerHeks: Rule #1 : never give advice to people who know where you live ;-)
[23:30] <FireBeard> LOL
[23:30] <FireBeard> he's just Dutch, just like I am
[23:31] <Tex_Nick> ;-)
[23:31] <FireBeard> I don't know where he lives, around utrecht at all
[23:31] <FireBeard> ;)
[23:32] <FireBeard> he and I go way back, he's a very cool and very knowledgeable person
[23:32] <Tex_Nick> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[23:32] <FireBeard> he knows it
[23:40] <tubal> Hello. So, running apt autoremove did as expected, removing superseded kernel stuff. However, it also seems to have uninstalled the module for my wireless card, bcmwl.  See https://paste.ubuntu.com/24113844/  .  I haven't rebooted. Thought it best to stop here and ask if anyone has a notion of why this was done.
[23:43] <OerHeks> tubal, "was ACTIVE on this kernel." does not mean you run 4.8.0-38 now
[23:44] <OerHeks> It is a correct just removal of the dkms module, else that folder will grow
[23:46] <tubal> OerHeks,  uname says 4.8.0-39-generic ...   Okay, yeah. So, I think you mean, it's all still in place, only this time for 4.8.0-39. Is that right?
[23:47] <OerHeks> jups
[23:47] <tubal> Cool. Thanks OerHeks .
[23:47] <OerHeks> it is just cleaning /lib/modules/
[23:48] <tubal> I see, yeah.
[23:59] <easyOnMe> just want to ask: will there be any problem if I install nginx on my ubuntu laptop even though I already have apache2 installed
[23:59] <easyOnMe> I mean will there be a problem if the two run side by side together
