[00:51] well i still need the newer version of libvirt [00:52] Hi [00:52] snowkrash: since you ask, you seem to worry about how stable it is. and since its alpha/beta there is the risk of something will break. [00:52] the question is how high this risk is [00:53] how high can it be if its one month before release? [00:53] dont kn ow ubuntu that good to say that [00:53] snowkrash: no one can tell you or give you a guarantee. that is the point of alpha and beta releases. they are not final [00:53] else ubuntu would make the final release now. [00:53] not much can change in 2 months [00:54] snowkrash: the answer will not change, just because you would like to here another answer. [00:54] haha :D [00:54] snowkrash: Al I can advise is that I have 17.04 as stable on my system - that is not to say that an update will not break ! .

I'm trying to install a package (ssmtp). since I preconfigured /etc with valid configuration which *must not* be overridden, I had to mount /etc/ssmtp to a read-only filesystem. now apt-get complains it cant overwrite the valid conf files with its new default ones, and refuses to install ssmtp. how can i force it to install my package, and ignore these errors? [02:47] daniel331: why would you preconfig it? and i think it will notice you have a config file (normally) and ask if you want to keep it? [02:47] daniel331: there may be an apt config or something you can set [02:49] nacc: docker ;-). as a sysadmin, easy email sending from multi-containers is a bit of holy grail. the solution is to have each container with the ssmtp binary, and the host as well. we configure the host and make sure it can send email, then mount host's /etc/ssmtp to /etc/ssmtp in every container. since it is imperative that no matter what happens, no container can affect any other container, we mount /etc/ssmtp as a read-only [02:49] mount point at that time. :-) [02:50] usually its enough to install ssmtp when the image is built but sometimes we dont have control over the image build process, so... this is how we end up in the situation where we have to write-protect our most important conf files :-) === pwater is now known as piercedwater [02:52] daniel331: why not preinstall ssmtp into your docker image?

[06:48] Thank you dax; I'll pull the trusty package [06:51] Eh, actually the yakkety package as the trusty one can't satisfy the deps [06:51] I have a machine. But I can run "sudo -l" command because of my user is not in sudoers file. When sysadmin login with my user. sysadmin runs "sudo -i" without anyproblem. how its possible I couldnt understand. But as I see screenshot of sysadmin, he login as root after then he runs "su userX" after than he runs "sudo -i" so it works for him. But In my case I login to system with userX and I can not run "sudo -l". I get your user is not in sudoers file [06:51] what can be the problem? [06:52] please tell me probabilities about this :( [06:52] temhaa: he belongs to the "sudo" group, and you don't. Use the "id" command to see your groups. [06:54] alkisg: so what does "su" command do? If sysadmin goes to this user with su command what groups does he see whenever run the "id" [06:54] temhaa: the "su" command is not used in ubuntu, it is there to login as root if the root account has a password, but in ubuntu that's a disabled account. That's why we used sudo -i instead, to get root rights without logging in as root. [06:56] alkisg: yes he login as root after than he runs su command [06:56] temhaa: "su userx" means "I already have root rights, and I want to login as userx without using a password" [06:57] temhaa: if you run that without root rights, it asks for a password [06:57] Also, it's best to use `su - userx`, with a dash there, to properly initialize the environment [06:58] alkisg: got it. yes its better to use "-" to get environments for that user [06:58] alkisg: I think problem is this. one more question. [06:58] alkisg: does ubuntu has root group by default [06:58] alkisg: I see my user is in root group [06:59] temhaa: there is no "root group", there is a "sudo group" [06:59] * alkisg hopes he doesn't actually use the root=0 group... [07:00] alkisg: id command also get this one: 0(root) [07:01] alkisg: my user is not in sudoers file. but /etc/group file says root:x:0:userX in first line why they did like it. [07:02] alkisg: is it bull shit? [07:03] temhaa: there is a root account, but it's disabled for logging in to it using username/password. You use the root account with sudo. [07:04] temhaa: the root account needs a group too, so it's the root=0 that you saw. But no other users are supposed to belong to that group , it's a private group [07:04] temhaa: the sudoers file has %sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL, which means "all members of the sudo group". So just put yourself to the sudo group. [07:06] alkisg: the problem is I dont know how can I use root account. and as I understand I am also owner of files that owner is root. [07:06] alkisg: my sudoers doesnt have ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL but It has this one: root ALL=(ALL) ALL [07:06] or you can create a USER_NAME ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL [07:06] temhaa: what's the output of "id" for your user? [07:07] 1 [07:07] pid 1 [07:07] alkisg: http://dpaste.com/0ZT4HXW [07:07] temhaa: that's a very bad thing to do, undo it :) [07:08] Don't put yourself to the root group, put yourself to the sudo group [07:08] alkisg: http://dpaste.com/1W9W9WT [07:08] What's the output of this command? sudo grep %sudo /etc/sudoers [07:08] alkisg: I am not sysadmin but I want to learn the reason. I am interesting sysadmin issues :) [07:08] temhaa: ah, ok, if you're using some broken software then you should ask for help there... [07:08] alkisg: but I will say to him [07:09] (or some broken configuration done by the sysadmin...) [07:09] alkisg: they are using chef for congiguration as I saw. chef configuration is broken [07:10] I don't want to help you learn how to exploit your broken configuration, but do tell your sysadmin that this root group means that you have unlimited access to everything, but in a bad way [07:10] whats the fun in that :) [07:10] alkisg: ok [07:10] alkisg: and [07:10] alkisg: I get error when I run sudo command because of I am not in sudoers file, what else? [07:11] temhaa: yes, you're not in the sudoers file so you can't run sudo like that [07:12] alkisg: so root group is not about this [07:12] Yes it's not about running sudo [07:12] alkisg: ok thank you so much [07:12] np [07:12] alkisg: I learn a lot of things. : ) [07:12] You can also read wikies :) [07:13] E.g. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [07:13] Or man sudo [07:13] That also works [07:13] alkisg: yes you're right. thanks for advice [07:14] is it true that unity gives you adds? [07:57] hi [07:58] hola [08:05] Maybe I'm going mad, but [08:05] How do you upgrade chrome on ubuntu? [08:05] 'tis only on version 50, but no upgrade button in it anywhere - I thought it auto-updated [08:06] Yaiyan: it upgrades with the rest of the system [08:06] Yaiyan, https://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/google_chrome [08:06] So adding a ppa should allow the current version of chrome to upgrade? [08:06] you know about this problem, Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/list/packages.linuxmint.com_dists_rosa_main_i18n_Translation-en, [08:07] !mint | deldate [08:07] deldate: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [08:07] ducasse, chrome isn't in the list of updates in the software manager [08:07] Yaiyan, no need to install from ppa, google have a repo for chrome [08:07] if you get chrome from their website, it auto adds the repository [08:07] Hrumm [08:08] Chrome came auto-installed - Ubuntu was preinstalled on this laptop [08:08] I have no idea how Dell installed it, though [08:08] How do you list your PPAs? [08:08] Yaiyan: what's the output of `dpkg --print-architecture` ? [08:08] amd64 [08:08] OK, just checking, because i386 has stopped updating [08:09] Ah [08:09] http://pcradio.ru/radio/komfortnoe [08:10] Yaiyan: `apt-cache policy google-chrome*` will tell you where you get it from [08:10] Yaiyan, check with: apt-cache policy google-chrome-stable [08:10] ubottu, hmmm oke thanks [08:10] deldate: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) === donttrustem_ is now known as donttrustem [08:11] Yaiyan, in my case, using google repo i'm on version 57 [08:12] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb is the output of that, which appears to be the right ppa from what google tells me [08:12] Yaiyan, true, so, what candidate version apt show you? [08:13] 56 [08:13] And 50's installed [08:13] Run sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [08:13] ubottu, but when i update, mint get the ubuntu packages [08:13] deldate: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [08:13] I'll try that in a minute, the software manager has locked dpkg, and downloads are a bit slow at the moment [08:13] Thanks! :) [08:14] deldate: you are still on mint, and we don't support that. it's too different from ubuntu. [08:14] deldate: ubottu is a program, a "bot", that we use to take notes. Don't talk to it. [08:14] ubottu, oke : ) [08:14] deldate: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [08:14] deldate, but mint has its own issues [08:16] hello, colleague is having x server issues (unable to log in) on Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 [08:16] what is the proper way of solving the problem? [08:16] eduardas_m, what error X show you? [08:17] we tried installing lightdm instead of gdm through recovery first, but still got x failure [08:17] you can take a look at /var/log/X.log (if X don't start), if X start and you can't login, take a look at ~/.xsession_error [08:17] ikevin: Could not create lock file in /tmp/.tX0-lock. [08:17] ok thanks, i have a litle problem on mint, i use the ubuntu on different pc [08:18] eduardas_m, does "df -hT" show you / (or /tmp) are full? [08:18] deldate, ask in mint support channel [08:20] ikevin: colleague is trying to reinstall x server via apt now === sparklyballs2 is now known as sparklyballs [08:20] do not have access to cmd at the moment [08:20] reinstalling it maybe not solve the problem === sparklyballs is now known as Guest32349 [08:21] you can do a ctrl+alt+f2 (or f3, f4, ...) to get another tty [08:21] ikevin, ok [08:25] Hello! On Ubuntu 12.04 LTS we could run an Xvnc session (and a DE in it) and use Alt+Tab to switch between windows. Doing the same on 16.04 leads to the strange behaviour that I can only switch to the very next window, not to others. I can see their icons but only Alt+Tab to the second. Any idea how to fix this? It drives me crazy. [08:26] This affects also our xrdp sessions (running on Xvnc). [08:26] ikevin: reinstalling x server actually helped :) [08:27] this makes me wonder: do updates that break x server for users actually get pushed without proper QA? [08:27] vlt, does all windows are on the same desktop? [08:27] eduardas_m, QA? [08:27] I am not sure, but it looks like this breakage was update related [08:27] quality assurance [08:29] eduardas_m, updates are tested before realase, so, a lot of things can break the installation and that are not related to the package [08:29] ikevin: Yes. Ctrl-Alt+left/right to switch between desktops works fine, btw. [08:30] bbl [08:31] ikevin, alkisg, worked great, thanks :) [08:31] eduardas_m: updates can also break things if you are using ppas. [08:31] Yaiyan: np [08:31] I must have just forgotten the apt-get update, or something like that [08:31] Thanks! [08:33] ikevin: “bbl”? [08:33] vlt: 'be back later' [08:33] ok [09:04] Morning. :) I'm running 16.04, but I need some more recent packages (specifically AStyle and Cppcheck). My problem is that I don't need them just once, but I have to maintain a script to automatically set up a development environment for my coworkers, so now I'm wondering what the simplest option for installing these would be. [09:05] Could I just set up apt to use the zesty repo for these packages? Could I potentially set up a repo of another distribution, and if so, which ones would be least likely to cause problems? [09:05] no [09:05] that's what to do if you want to break your system [09:05] Last straw option would be to download and build the source package from the project sites, but I hope for an easier option. [09:07] SlashLife^m: you can maintain your own PPA with those versions, and have all your co-workers put your ppa to their sources [09:07] zesty 17.04 packages on xenial 16.04? why do you need those slightly newer versions? [09:08] easy mode - deal with 16.04's versions, i can't imagine you absolutely need the incremental version update from zesty. less easy mode - install 17.04. unsupported mode - find a ppa, guru mode - build them yourself [09:08] OerHeks: Let's put it this way: I just started out using those two programs and directly ran into a bug with Cppcheck, as well as not having two styling options our code style guide requires. [09:09] SlashLife^m: you can request to backport bug fixes in 16.04, it's called SRU [09:09] This will benefit all your co-workers, and all other xenial users [09:10] alkisg: That could be an option; is there any resource that describes how the process works (would I request a version, or would I need to find a specific commit on the Cppcheck repo, etc?) [09:10] !sru [09:10] Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates [09:12] Cool, thanks. [09:13] I'm setting up a server and I'm trying to use hosts.allow to restrict ssh to my ip. My ip is dynamic so I have a script update a dns entry myhost.domain.com and added that to hosts.allow. It isn't working. Elsewhere I read that the reverse dns entry is checked so I created reverse.domain.com as a cname to the reverse dns entry. Doesn't work. Any suggestions? [09:13] So, to wrap this up: If I don't want to set up a PPA (getting the administrative paper work done to get a server set up for that might take up the better part of the year), then getting the source package and building "manually" from the script would be the way to go? [09:13] cantfigureit: i'd recommend to you to just enforce key authentication and not worry about blocking ips [09:14] Ben64: Thanks, I've done that and added 2-factor auth but I was hoping to further lock things down if possible. Defense in depth and all that. [09:15] (In case and SRU is not an option/rejected) [09:15] *an [09:15] cantfigureit: if anyone can get your key they deserve your server [09:15] hello Ive installed ubuntu lately but Im unable to hibernate, I managed to activate the hibernate option but [09:15] when I try to hibernate [09:15] I end up with a black screen [09:15] and I end up having to force shutdown the pc [09:17] SlashLife^m: PPAs are hosted in launchpad, so you just sign up and click a button to create it [09:17] does anyone know why its not working ? [09:17] There's no need for the better part of a year [09:18] Hi, how do I add Ubuntu Trusty to the list on launchpad here? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1605494 [09:18] Launchpad bug 1605494 in linux (Ubuntu Yakkety) "vmxnet3 LRO IPv6 performance issues (stalling TCP)" [Undecided,Fix released] [09:18] alkisg: Ah, okay. Cool. Though it seems a bit stupid to have a package that is out there anyway mirrored like that, but then that'd definitely be a viable option. [09:19] Anyway; I'll look into the SRU and then decide how to continue. Thanks for the help. :) [09:21] Im on xubuntu 16.04 btw [09:21] Is this channel for me since I use something like Lubuntu? [09:22] nepetax: 'like' lubuntu? === daniel is now known as Guest47070 [09:22] nepetax: [09:22] "This channel supports: Ubuntu and its official flavors" [09:23] Oh, well I've been using Linux for almost a week and it was good. I still use Windows though. [09:24] * nepetax uses Linux for learning to use Bash, Linux software development, maybe use Python and some git of course. [09:25] hello how can i cut paste a folder and replace the sub folders that already exist ? [09:27] * nepetax scratches head. "I don't know how to do that actually." [09:27] But I know mv is used for moving. [09:31] armayss: have you tried sudo mv -t -v /your_folder /destination_folder ? sudo is for root privileges if folder is hidden for example* [09:32] Kind of heard that playing with sudo can be dangerous [09:33] hi [09:35] Hello! On Ubuntu 12.04 LTS we could run an Xvnc session (and a DE in it) and use Alt+Tab to switch between windows. Doing the same on 16.04 leads to the strange behaviour that I can only switch to the very next window, not to others. I can see their icons but only Alt+Tab to the second. Any idea how to fix this? It drives me crazy. [09:35] This affects also our xrdp sessions (running on Xvnc). [09:35] Ctrl-Alt+left/right to switch between desktops works fine, btw. [09:38] fozu, it says mv: failed to access 'v': No such file or directory [09:38] vlt, does it work with other vnc viewers and servers? If yes, just file a bug for xvnc. [09:39] vlt, e.g. try `xvnc4viewer -listen` on one pc, `x11vnc -connect pc` to another pc, then f8 => full screen, and finally see if alt+tab works there. [09:39] (it works fine for me...) [09:40] alkisg: Thank you, I'll try that. [09:41] i have mv: cannot move '/src/formation-back/server' to '/src/formation-back/dist/server': Directory not empty [09:44] armayss: didnt get what you want do exactly. can you elaborate [09:45] Anyone here who knows a lot about working with wine? [09:46] !wine | linuxnoob [09:46] linuxnoob: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [09:46] smellysocks, is that good ? rsync -a /src/formation-back/dist/ /src/formation-back/server/ && rm -rf /src/formation-back/dist/* [09:46] i want to cut paste from one directory to another with replace [09:47] armayss: never used rsync but i think mv then rm may help. [09:48] but does mv work if certain folders have the same name and replace them ? [09:48] armayss: read the mv man page, you might need -f or similar [09:49] does anyone know if it is possible to add a "fingerprint"(InstallationID) to wine? I'm kinda stuck when I want to registere a program due to that wine generates a installationID=0; hm [09:50] linuxnoob, check the appdb, then ask in #winehq === eric_herman is now known as EricHerman === matthew is now known as Guest54148 === tekku is now known as tekk [10:05] armayss: sorry, was iddle, yeah I made a mistake, should be -vt if so. [10:10] hola [10:10] my screen goes black within a few seconds of not doing anything [10:10] armayss: try mv --help and man mv for documentation, there is also 'force' option, so this radical mv -fvt should be working [10:11] my screen goes black within a few seconds of not doing anything. All my power management settings look fine [10:11] never use -f if you don't need to [10:11] i have set that - it should not turn off screen for more than 30mins [10:11] of inactivity [10:11] fozu i didnt understand the -t ? i read the man page [10:12] como instala el navegador en ubuntu mate [10:13] #ubuntu-es for espanol juanjo [10:13] here is english [10:14] Hi, does anyone know how to enable paste function with middle mouse button click? It seems to have stopped working for me [10:15] Hi [10:16] Oki dot matrix printer says "in use" then "idle" and doesn't print [10:16] it's for target directory, meaning the folder you want to put other folders just the way they are [10:17] have you tried that? [10:18] i'm on other distro now, so I can't check that, but isn't there a option for Open as Administrator when you right click on the folder in graphic mode? [10:21] Hi, I need to configure a 'hotspot' dongle for someone, it's an independent device (like a cellphone, I guess) so it gives-me an ssid, and I can find it in the wireless menu, but the only password I see on instructions it's a pin, and the wifi password field doesn't accept a pin [10:22] it has a webpage to configure but when I create an account, it has a APN field, and I don't know what to put in there [10:22] Hi. I have a crashed system (literally, motherboard broke to pieces) from which I want to salvage data from the SSD. I want to boot from an identical motherboard with the ubuntu install stick, and then rescue the data. How do I boot the install, so it won't touch the local harddrive while booting (especially NOT stuff like read the partition table, try to access the swap partition, or mount/recover journal on the hard disk partitions) it need [10:22] s to leave that disk alone until I can get a unmodified image of the disk saved elsewhere [10:23] how do I do that? [10:23] also I don't know what connection type should I choose if I create one using network manager [10:24] does anyone know how to enable middle mouse button paste functionality in 16.04? [10:24] CorvusCorax: eh, the easiest way would be to connect it via a usb case, do you want to put it internally in a sata slot? [10:24] CorvusCorax: I'd recommend something like grml.org. It won't touch anything by default and there's even a "forensic" boot param. [10:26] CorvusCorax: i.e. since you have a crashed board and you're putting the disk elsewhere, you don't need a live system, you only need to take care not to automount the disk [10:26] I might use grml then. The SSD is a PCIE drive, not a SATA drive, I don't have any external PCIE controllers, so I can only connect it internally [10:26] Ah [10:27] CorvusCorax: for internal disks, there's no automount logic, as long as it doesn't apper in /etc/fstab, it's not automounted [10:28] it will appear to the system as /dev/mmcblk0p*** [10:28] I dunno if that is treated as internal or external. my SD card reader also exposes as /dev/ssdblk* [10:28] I just realised that likely even the BIOS will access the disk when it scans for bootable EFI hard drives [10:29] but at least it would only acess the EFI partition, I don't care about that too much [10:31] the package vim-autopep8 on xenial seems broken, it installs /usr/share/vim/addons/ftplugin/python_autopep8.vim but the default runtimepath doesn't include the directory, https://gist.github.com/anddam/9cfcc5a6635d1a18745d88336486f3a9 [10:32] I figure I should file a bug [10:39] hello everyone [10:39] I could use some help regarding adding fn-keys to openbox [10:40] anyone here who could help me? [10:41] toha1, about what ? [10:41] http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Bindings toha1 read that yet [10:45] thyriaen: I've added xf86 keys [10:45] and a xf86audiomute [10:46] toha1, you read the link I just gave you? === Zhrebec is now known as AtuM [10:46] this is the result of apt install -f and I'm wondering how to keep a copy from these two packages as .deb file offline to avoid re-downloading them? [10:46] yeah, that's the link I used" [10:46] The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: [10:46] linux-headers-4.4.0-62 linux-headers-4.4.0-62-generic [10:46] linux-image-4.4.0-62-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-62-generic === bogdan_ is now known as Bogdar [10:47] btw, what I was trying to is fixing the broken software database error [10:53] can anyone confirm that's a bug? [10:53] TheLawyer: iirc apt does not keep packages in the local cache by default, but apt-get does. [10:54] I'm getting an error loading libpthread after running ldconfig as root and adding its parent directory to the ld configuration [10:54] the unprivileged user can't run anything that links libpthread [11:00] test [11:01] hi, I have a small question - how do I limit package search to specific architecture. I need to generate a list of i386-only packages, but apt-cache does not understand the "apt-cache search libabc*:i386" [11:02] if anyone knows how to generate a text list of i386-only packages with wildcard, I would be really grateful. [11:03] htanks ducasse , I've always thought apt and apt-get are the same thing just different names [11:04] which log file should I look into when an application doesn't fire up or crashes? [11:10] nvm fixed it (it was an apparmor profile fwiw) === alex23_away is now known as alex23 [11:21] user4212: you can do something like this "dpkg -l | awk '{ if ( $4 == "i386" ) print $2 }'" === dreamon_ is now known as dreamon [11:25] hi guys [11:25] akik: thanks, but dpkg only lists items already installed...

[11:27] oh well [11:28] akik: thanks for trying to help :) [11:29] I am currently trying to find out, if its possible to append stuff to the end of pipe. Like this: ' echo "hello"|command ' , but I want "hello:i386" printed. [11:29] i get this error when i install my canon scanner driver: paste.debian.net/919102 [11:29] any help? thanks [11:30] is it because i need to install something libpng and libusb ? and how? [11:30] mantise: after it finishes, execute an "apt-get install -f" [11:31] i can t set 1024x768 on my monitor, only 640x480, xubuntu 1604, thanks [11:31] as sudo ofc ? [11:31] user4212: as sudo ? [11:31] mantise: yes ofc [11:31] mantise: did you check if your device is supported by sane? [11:32] user4212: well the printer driver worked fine. error with the scanner. the command you said, just gave me this:0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. [11:32] mantise: have you tried installing sane-pixma package? It claims to support your scanner. [11:33] mg5100 [11:33] nop ? i have mg5150, but its the same series and driver. on ubuntu 16.10 [11:33] user4212: what are you trying to append and stuff? i just joined [11:34] user4212: where do i find the sane-pixma ? :) [11:34] EriC^: Basically I want apt-cache(or whatever) to find and list all packages with wildcard, but both x64 and i386 versions. [11:34] mantise: sudo apt install sane-pixma [11:34] What exactly is it that triggers apache2 on boot (16.10)? I see no indications in the logs of it even trying to start on my server. [11:35] starting it manually works fine [11:35] Doow: try sudo systemctl enable apache [11:35] user4212: ok, well my printer driver is installed and working, hope it wont mess up that driver then ? [11:35] mantise: the problem with proprietary drivers, is that they are usually linked against system libraries, which get updated - thus no longer function if proprietary driver is also not updated. [11:35] user4212: to be honest i didn't quite get exactly what you mean [11:35] user4212: i downloaded my drivers from canons website [11:36] you want like "something *wildcard*" and you get the output in apt-cache policy style? [11:36] user4212: for ubuntu/debian [11:36] EriC^: sure, I want apt to list both x64 and 386 versions of package with a wildcard. [11:36] user4212: [11:36] user4212: maybe try installing apt-show-versions [11:37] EriC^, that doesn't work, gimme a sec [11:37] EriC^: I want "apt search package*:i386" basically. apt-cache only outputs x64 name... [11:37] http://paste.ubuntu.com/24151223/ [11:37] user4212: oh ok [11:38] user4212: maybe "apt list | grep "package.*386" ? [11:39] it's listed in /etc/init.d/apache2 [11:39] EriC^: it seems to bring me forwards, thank you! [11:39] user4212: should i still try to install the sane-pixma ? [11:39] user4212: or just apt list [11:39] mantise: please try to use drivers available in repository when possible. [11:40] mantise: the problem right now you seem to be having, is that the driver was made in 2010, after which libpng (which is system PNG image support library) was updated and no longer compatible with older version that that 2010 driver uses. [11:41] user4212: well im new to linux and drivers :D the repository is a bit advanced imo. how to i get the adress? i know i should go to the software and updates to apply them [11:41] user4212: oh :s well i just tought the Canon driver from their website was the best choice, and since the printer driver is working fine :) but yeah i see [11:43] mantise: sudo apt install sane-pixma, connect your scanner, check if xsane/scanlite/simplescan sees it. [11:44] user4212: E: Unable to locate package sane-pixma [11:47] mantise: ouch! try this "apt install libsane libsane-extras" [11:47] testing testing [11:48] anybody there [11:48] sevarg1q2w: pong! [11:48] ping [11:48] thx [11:48] user4212: did that now, still same error when trying to instsall sane-pixma [11:49] mantise: nah, dont install sane-pixma. Its part of sane-backends, which in turn is present in "libsane-extra". [11:49] mantise: just this: "apt install libsane libsane-extras" [11:50] user4212: i just installed the libsane-extras mate :) then what ? [11:50] mantise: install one of scanner programs and run them to check if your scanner gets recongnized [11:51] user4212: ok :) did the ./install.sh again too. still error with the libpng and usb. do you know a good scanner program i can get from software center ? [11:51] user4212: nvm i have simplescan on this install [11:51] mantise: scanlite (for kde), simple scan (for unity/gnome), xsane for complex one. [11:52] Hey, I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 which I use for testing, and it seems that libiptcdata0-dev is no longer available in apt. Could someone confirm? It used to be available before. [11:52] user4212: simplescan says no scanner connected [11:52] I find it hard to believe that it's really not in apt, because then our build team, which uses various distros including various ubuntus, would have complained [11:53] mantise: is sane itself installed? [11:53] uuouououo [11:53] user4212: i dont think so :D i just installed the 2 canon drivers. the printer driver worked fine, not the scanner :) === wang_ is now known as Guest26158 [11:54] DrSlony, it probably is still there, just not in the 14.04 repos anymore [11:54] 2222 [11:54] ttyfscker how do i fix that? [11:54] mantise: "apt install sane" ? [11:54] libiptcdata is dead since 2009, but many programs still use it [11:54] what's the fuck [11:55] user4212: that is installed now [11:55] Guest26158, watch the language please [11:55] are you kidding me [11:55] mantise: anyways, according to http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/zesty/man5/sane-pixma.5.html your scanner is supported since 2013 [11:56] mantise: I don't know if udev needs restart to rescan the rules, so a reboot might do it. Or it just works out of the box. [11:56] it's definitely there in 16.04 and 16.10 DrSlony , just confirmed on both of my Ubuntu machines [11:57] user4212: so i did the install sane now, the sane-pixma still fails. anything else i should do before a reboot ? === Troy1 is now known as Troy^ [11:57] mantise: forget sane-pixma, its part of sane suit, which is physically present in "libsane-extras". [11:57] ttyfscker thank you for checking. How can I get it in 14.04? I must use 14.04 because that's what Travis CI uses. [11:57] user4212: ok, ill just try with a reboot now then [11:57] mantise: yup === _salem is now known as salem_ [12:04] This page shows that libiptcdata is in Ubuntu 14.04, but I just downloaded a 14.04 live USB and ran "sudo apt-get update" and I don't see it there. How do I get it? http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libiptcdata0-dev [12:04] mantise: in case it didn't work, I have found a PPA that supports current canon proprietary scanner driver: http://tipsonubuntu.com/2016/08/14/canon-printer-driver-scangear-mp-ubuntu-16-04/ [12:05] user4212: it worked just fine ! [12:05] mantise: oh, then you don't need that [12:05] mantise: happy scanning [12:05] user4212: If i have to fix this again on another box. i just have to do the apt install sane and libsane libsane-extra ? [12:05] mantise: yup [12:06] user4212: that was the thing that sorted it out ? Great. Thanks for your help <3 [12:06] mantise: I would also check if gutenprint supports your canon printer. if it does, you don't need canon prop. driver either [12:06] user4212: gutenprint ? [12:06] mantise: yes, sane is a big project that supports huge amount of scanners natively. its opensource and already in repo. [12:06] user4212: btw, i got gimp installed now? it came with sane ? [12:08] mantise: probably "sane" pulled it, not sure if you need "sane", but you do need "libsane". [12:08] ah i see. but maybe just sudo apt install libsane libsane-extra was enough ? [12:08] user4212: ^ [12:09] mantise: about open printing, the packages are foomatic-db-gutenprint and printer-driver-gutenprint [12:09] mantise: but I have no idea if your printer is supported. if its not, then use proprietary driver [12:09] user4212: Ok. well it works fine now. so no reason to change it ? :) [12:11] mantise: yes, but "sane" does not hurt. It installs scanadf and xcam which are good to have if you have automatic document feeder on the scanner. [12:11] Solution: sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty universe" [12:12] user4212: ok, thanks :) its working just perfect now, so im happy :) [12:15] user4212: what does the command apt-get install -f - you said u should enter after the install ? [12:17] mantise: "apt-get install -f" is a fixer command, that tries to find broken packages and remove them or add missing dependencies. [12:18] mantise: you might want to "apt purge scangearmp*" to remove parts of proprietary driver [12:18] proprietary scanner driver* [12:19] mantise: if you still want this driver, the current versions are maintained in the ppa I linked above. [12:19] mantise: but if sane natively supports your scanner at all resolutions/dpi you don't [12:21] How to install derby database in ubuntu 16.04 [12:21] How to install derby database in ubuntu 16.04 [12:22] user4212: so you think i should go install that insted ? with sudo add-apt-repository ppa:inameiname/stable [12:23] user4212: i think i have tryed to do that btw. but i could NOT install the synaptic package manager programs [12:23] mantise: I would first purge the parts of proprietary scanner driver. if your scanner works with sane, then you don't need it. Sane native support is better thing than support via proprietary driver. [12:24] user4212: ok, ill try apt purge scangearmp [12:24] "apt install synaptic" ? [12:24] "apt purge scangearmp*" [12:24] user4212: yeah i have installed that synaptic. i wasnt able to get the installs in the program tho.. but yeah ill try purge scangermp first [12:24] How to install derby database in ubuntu 16.04 [12:25] user4212: and yes: apt purge scangearmp* [12:26] mantise: synaptic will not allow you to install anything if you have other package-related software running - gui or terminal. [12:27] user4212: ok, well i bugged last time i tryed. anyways, purge says this: E: Unable to locate package scangearmp* [12:28] user4212: E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'scangearmp*' - E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'scangearmp*' [12:28] mantise: Ah, sorry, I didnt pay attention to your log. the cannon script removes its packages if it fails, so the system should be clean anyways. Well, pre-2013 ati could learn a thing!.. [12:29] user4212: great :) then the sane and libsane-extras working just fine, so i dont need the ppa ? :) [12:30] mantise: correct. its only to provide backend, ie "driver" part. [12:30] Hello all. [12:32] user4212: i see :) well im kinda new to linux, tryed it many years ago. now i removed my windows partitions :D so now i have to get it all working at my ubuntu 16.10 install :) [12:32] araby is not a native English speaker and is kinda struggling to install derby db on ubuntu 16.04. If anyone is patient enough and can help them please do. [12:32] user4212: again, thanks. appriciate that people spend their time helping others :) [12:33] Rashad: thank you :) [12:35] hi [12:35] i need assistance about logrotate [12:37] my logrotate conf file is here : https://paste.linux.community/view/e8268bc1 [12:37] Plop718: you'ce not written that [12:38] thats come from a howto guide [12:38] but what happen when the roraton occurs is that the dates are stacked... [12:38] dates are "stacked" ? [12:39] what is a "stacked" date ? [12:39] yes stacked like that : https://paste.linux.community/view/f843c36e [12:40] Plop718: what do you mean "stacked" [12:40] Plop718: the 5th line of that ls output is nonsense [12:40] instead of plop.20170310.log it becomes plop.20170309.20170310.log [12:40] are you asking what is causing a log file to have two date suffixs ? [12:40] yes [12:41] i don't understand why... [12:41] it is like if logrotates applies to old log files too [12:41] Plop718: it's probably being applied to a file thats still open [12:42] again, I suspect the example rotate file you've shown is not one you've written but cut and paste from a guide [12:42] ikonia it is my own logrotate file [12:42] for what version of ubuntu ? [12:43] i mean i may have copied from a guide at the begining but i change it to suits my needs [12:43] 16.04 [12:43] Plop718: so a.) why is it referencing /etc/init.d - 16.04 uses systemd b.) do you understand what all those setting sdo ? [12:44] -------------------------------------- [12:44] Morning. What's a good app for managing services/daemons. 16.04 LTS, and I'm not using the default DE/WM [12:44] Does anyone know how to cut part of the string? For example: echo "this is a string"|cutcommand "is a". Result what I'd like to have is: "this string". [12:44] user4212: depends on what you want to cut and how you identify what you want to cut [12:45] user4212: awk/sed [12:45] ikonia mhmm that is a good point ! [12:45] rotate *.log [12:45] Plop718: look at what you've told it to do [12:45] you're rotating files to be called $file.$date.log [12:45] so it will rotate rotated files [12:45] ikonia: thanks! its a fixed known string with a space, the string is: "not installed" [12:45] because they have a .log extension [12:45] user4212: I wouldn't cut it, I'd grep it [12:45] then manipulate that [12:46] ikonia: well, I need this string part removed.. [12:46] user4212: use sed [12:46] user4212: man sed / man awk [12:46] ths ikonia ! [12:46] ikonia: you mean use google, I am absolutely newb with regex [12:47] :) [12:47] user4212: no, I didn't say use google [12:47] user4212: I said "use sed" [12:51] sed -e "s/not\sinstalled//", thanks google [12:52] user4212: you do realize this is #ubuntu and not #sed right? [12:52] Hi. I am having an nginix issue (not sure if this would be the right place for that). I have ngninx respond fast most of the time, and then it starts timing out for exactly 1 request and hangs for 1 minute. I tested the server running, and curling localhost directly resolves the issue [12:52] okay, here is a one-liner to list all libsdl packages, except debug and doc. Usefull to pull all dependencies at once. echo $(apt-show-versions -r -p libsdl* | grep ^libsdl | grep -v -- '-dev' | grep -v -- '-dbg'| grep -v -- '-doc'| cut -d' ' -d"/" -f1 | sed -e "s/not\sinstalled//") [12:52] would someone be able to point me into a direction maybe? === tcorneli is now known as tcorneli_ [12:53] pandaadb: what do the log files say? [12:53] includes all supported architectures on the system =) [12:53] hi, is it possible to use ipsec in ubuntu? i found several forums with instructions, but none of them work [12:54] scottjl, http://pastebin.com/3C7aNCBZ [12:54] so, the upstream ulr 127.0.0.1 works perfectly fine [12:55] my test is to run a loop of 50 requests and time it. Querying the 192.168 url results in 1 minute timeouts, querying the localhost one that bypasses nginx resolves the issue [12:55] that is why I suspect this to be nginix, but i am not too sure if I am chasing the wrong tail [12:56] pandaadb: you're sure your upstream connection is keeping up? [12:57] they are both deployed on localhost and the api i hit responds a static String. It should be able to handle at least 100 a second (i would go as far as saying 1000/s) [12:57] it should, but it's still saying timing out. [12:57] hit that directly with your test. is it keeping up? [12:57] yes [12:58] hitting that directly causes no issues at all [12:58] yeah then i'd say it was nginx [12:58] We have the same issue on an identical box, and removing the ip tables seems to work [12:59] My "vboxnet" virtualbox virtual network adapter started showing up in network manager, as an unmanaged interface with no name. Anyone seen that? [13:00] scottjl, IP tables were the culprit. Just don't really understand why yet. but resetting them fixes the symptoms [13:00] pandaadb: glad you found it. [13:01] thank you :) === miki is now known as Guest76806 [13:21] Hi. Running Ubuntu 16.04 which has qemu-system version 2.5. This is old, so how do I get a 2.8 version running? [13:29] hello, can anyone point me to a link of instructions on how to add apps to the start up grooup [13:31] hi, how can i update my virt-manager to the latest version 1.4.1? [13:34] apt update && apt upgrade ?? [13:35] user4212: did you solve the arch package search thing? [13:35] rami_: 1.4.1 isn't offered in any Ubuntu repos. [13:36] Heelo, World! [13:37] i did the update and upgrade thing but as mentioned by Pici it is not offered in ubuntu repos [13:37] i downloaded it from the main website [13:38] but i did not found the way to update [13:54] anddam: yes, thank you! I can share the solution with you if you want. lists all installable arch packages except dbg/doc, handy for one-line pulling of libsdl. === guest is now known as rory [13:58] no thanks, I was going to suggest aptitude with ~r operator [14:04] Hi is there a channel I can ask about email? [14:07] Hello. How can I find out which package put a binary there when `dpkg -S /usr/bin/the_binary` doesn't return a result but gives me "dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /usr/bin/the_binary" instead? [14:09] fub: You could try to find a !ppa, a .deb file or compile it yourself. [14:11] vlt: [14:12] vlt: dpkg -S *location* [14:12] user4212: A location like /usr/bin/the_binary? [14:13] vlt: can be both file and directory [14:15] vlt: if dpkg says no pattern matching, then it was created outside of dpkg. preinstalled or created on execute. [14:15] dpkg -S /bin/bash >>> bash: /bin/bash [14:16] vlt: dpkg -S /usr/share/aspell/ >>>> aspell, aspell-en: /usr/share/aspell [14:16] Hi [14:18] user4212: Ok, thank you. Found it. It was a symlink to a symlink to a binary known by dpkg. [14:18] I face with strange problem, I installed the amdgpu-pro driver for radon HD5450, after reboot I stuck on login screen loop and couldn't login into the ubuntu [14:19] I removed the amdgpu-pro, but now I have new problem and poor resolution [14:19] I don't know what to do for solving this problem I asked other channel also google too but didn't worked [14:21] Zenom: can you boot the machine? [14:21] Zenom: perhaps I can try to help [14:22] I'll happy about it user4212 [14:22] r9 280 with radeon here. [14:22] Yes I can boot but I have display problem now [14:22] I wanted to use my GPU but faced with new problem :d [14:23] what "glxinfo | renderer " say? [14:23] Zenom: its not dualgpu, is it? [14:23] https://ghostbin.com/paste/hb9wq [14:23] I have no experience with optimus/amd switchable [14:24] No it's desktop with just one graphic card [14:24] Zenom: doh!

[14:24] https://ghostbin.com/paste/hb9wq [14:25] Zenom: looks like neither amd radeon, nor amdgpu are running [14:25] Zenom: you are on llvm pipe [14:26] What's the llvm pipe? [14:26] Zenom: software renderer [14:26] Zenom: apt install libdrm-radeon1 libdrm-amdgpu1 [14:27] https://ghostbin.com/paste/hb9wq [14:28] Zenom: can you dump me contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log? [14:29] in the same paste [14:31] user4212, done please check the link again === Piece_Maker is now known as Acou_Bass [14:32] Zenom: you are using some PPA with newest Xorg and support for amdgpu-pro, I assume? Well, AFAIK amdgpu-pro is not supported on anything lower than RadeonSI (7xxx). But the possible reason of why no driver at all is loaded could be different - like you didn't update initramfs or didn't install newer kernel required for the library. [14:32] Zenom: looking up [14:33] Zenom: yeah, you are trying amdgpu-pro with old kernel 4.4 [14:33] so what should I do now? [14:34] Zenom: this line "[ 29.562] (II) [KMS] drm report modesetting isn't supported." [14:35] Zenom: two things - you can either remove the PPA and get back to original state, or you can install kernel - but you need said hardware support for amdgpu-pro. AFAIK its currently even only available for rx 4xx, with planned expansion towards 7xxx. [14:35] Zenom: so if you go path 2, then you will end up with newer "radeon" driver. [14:36] Would you please help me out what ever you think is better for me [14:36] Zenom: I have stock HWE 4.8 kernel here (16.04 LTS) and xenial backports activated. Works for my r9. [14:36] because I really don't what to do now [14:37] https://ghostbin.com/paste/984xp [14:37] Zenom: short version - we can either unroll the changes(1) or finish the changes(2), however that amdgpu-pro driver supports only hardware rx 4xx. It will not support 5xxx, you will be using NEWER stack. [14:38] you will be using NEWER "radeon" driver on your hardware, not "amdgpu-pro". [14:38] SO it's up to you final decision [14:39] Zenom: I would roll back the changes, unless you want to experiment. [14:40] Zenom: can you please give me output of this: "grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*" [14:40] we can remove the amdgpu-pro and installing the suitable driver? [14:40] Zenom: basically this [14:40] Zenom: even if you install required Kernel for amdgpu, the amdgpupro will NOT run on your hardware. [14:41] Zenom: "radeon" driver will, its newer version. [14:41] https://ghostbin.com/paste/984xp [14:41] Zenom: without quotes please [14:42] https://ghostbin.com/paste/984xp [14:43] Zenom: "apt install ppa-purge" [14:43] no quotes === salem_ is now known as _salem [14:45] https://ghostbin.com/paste/8r2u8 [14:46] Zenom: "apt purge amdgpu-pro amdgpu-pro-lib32 amdgpu-pro-dkms glx-alternative-amdgpu-pro" [14:46] Dual booting windows and linux using UEFI+GPT: asks to set esp flag on the boot partition but no esp flag exists [14:46] Hello [14:47] Zenom: ?

[14:54] drvanon: first of all, all of the FTPS options are terrible, and this is one of the reason why. FTP uses a dynamic secondary port, which seems to be filtered by your port blocking. Check your ftp server's options to see if you can specify a specific range of ports for that and then allow those. [14:55] after upgrading to yakkety, the touchpad works like a "screen" in that if I simply touch the upper left, the cursor moves all the way over there, so I can't "drag" it – I have no idea how to google this [14:55] anyone know what the phenomenon is called?

[14:59] user4212, https://ghostbin.com/paste/9q8e8 [14:59] Unhammer: when touchpad hardware starts to behave or being detected as mouse, and gets mouse driver attached, this is the result. [15:01] Zenom: you should be fine to reboot now. However, you need to clean two ppas from your sources after reboot. And best way via "lsof" before "rm".

Ihad this working for my user and not root but i keep getting authentication failure. Where to start? [16:15] Bill1973, access by ssh? [16:16] dn1987p yes [16:17] Bill1973: did you have to restart the machine? [16:17] after the dist-upgrade? [16:17] It wad working from juice android ssh client on 15 [16:17] Bill1973, you can try to run ssh with verbose output ( -v )? [16:17] i don't think juice will do verbose [16:17] no options on the SSH connection [16:17] oh alright [16:17] got another linux pc maybe to connect from? [16:17] Bill1973: did you reboot the machine? [16:18] juice does scroll a bunch of stuff by when you're initially connecting though [16:19] ssh works fine locally. Many reboots since update. Just no need to ssh from WAN on phone cause i was home. Needed to access from work and noticed it wasnt working [16:19] Bill1973: you may have reset some DHCP configs with the update. [16:20] Ican still use ssh local ip, port is open on router still [16:20] static IP mac assigned [16:20] so the issue is just when connecting from behind the router? [16:21] No connecting by internet ip at all. I can ping it etc. [16:22] Its just not letting my user authenticate after update [16:22] would installing ububtu on a macbook be bad for the flash storage?

[16:39] qemu-system-x84_64 -hda file.img format raw ? [16:39] i don't use qemu.. file=... but -hda [16:41] legortied: you don't usually need to tell qemu what format a disk file is in, it's embedded in the file itself [16:41] legortied: but if you need it to override, then it's something like -drive file=file.img,format=raw [16:42] legortied: `man qemu-system-x86_64` is your friend [16:42] i register [16:42] why not -hda nacc [16:43] i'm in package hell right now. i can't install krb5-multidev [16:43] E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

No need to sudo? [16:46] http://pastebin.com/1TrejLXk [16:47] aotaointbin: for some reason you don't have xenial-updates enabled [16:47] aotaointbin: is that right? [16:47] you probably need sudo to access auth.log [16:48] aotaointbin: `apt policy libkrb5-3`, please? [16:48] only xenial and xenial-security, it seems [16:49] http://pastebin.com/bYjp5X6Z [16:49] aotaointbin: but you chose to download and install some packages manuallY? [16:50] not as far as i know, no... [16:50] aotaointbin: e.g., you've insallted libkrb5-3 via dpkg? [16:50] aotaointbin: did you have updates enabled at some point int he past? [16:50] dp1987p looks as if its expecting root login. [16:50] That seems "unsecure" [16:50] i haven't touched my sources.list intentionally in a very long time.. [16:51] or ever. [16:51] Bill1973, what is expecting root login? [16:51] I mean not thatt theres anything sensitive [16:51] Ssh [16:51] and no, i haven't installed any debs manually in recent memory, or ever... [16:51] ssh only accepts root login? [16:52] lemmee try a new identity and try logging in as root from wan [16:52] deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-backports main restricted universe multiverse [16:52] can you copy and paste the error message maybe? [16:52] that may have been recently removed from my sources.list somehow... [16:52] if its not too long, else pastebin or something [16:53] dn1987p, you should avoid ssh as root. ssh as user, then become root [16:53] (sources.list has a mtime from two weeks ago and i see a sources.list.save from that same time that has the backports source in it) [16:53] yes, he needs to change that in the config then [16:53] maybe setup sudo [16:53] aotaointbin: i can only report what your system reports [16:53] aotaointbin: i don't ever trust a user's memory :) [16:53] aotaointbin: but you have at least a few packages installed by hand for some reason, from xenial-updates [16:54] that's... odd. to say the least. === E4xoi is now known as exio4 [16:54] Hello. Can someone confirm Alt+Tab not working for window-manager marco (from MATE DE) in a vnc4server session on Ubuntu 16.04? [16:54] aotaointbin: i agree. You might look in /var/log/dpkg.log or /var/log/apt/history.log [16:54] Juice wont copy just that. I'll pastebin.... [16:55] so the problem is that i have ubuntu2 packages where i should have non-ubuntu2 packages? [16:55] * aotaointbin has no idea what this version naming scheme means [16:56] aotaointbin: the issue is that you have installed some packages manually [16:56] aotaointbin: whether you remember doing so or not :) [16:57] aotaointbin: and those packages are not in any archive apt is currently configured to know about [16:57] aotaointbin: apt can't resolve that on its own [16:58] so... should i add xenial-updates? :P [16:58] dn1987p https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/24152501/ [16:58] not sure what the easiest way out of this mess would be. [16:58] aotaointbin: that is one fix; i assuem you are not running -updates for a good reason [16:59] not really. i don't mess with my repos. [16:59] is it supposed to be in sources.list by default? [16:59] aotaointbin: alternatively, `apt install krb5-multidev libkrb5=1.13.2+dfsg-5 lik5crypto3=1.13.2+dfsg-5 libgssapi-krb5-2=1.13.2+dfsg-5` [16:59] aotaointbin: yes, so you obviously *did* mess with them at some point :) [17:00] Brb [17:00] i did at one point (years ago) add packages.elasticsearch.org repos, but those have been commented back out for years. [17:01] aotaointbin: i mean, as you said, updates are typically on by default (not strictly required by any means, but highly recommended) [17:02] aotaointbin, do you have Proposed enabled ? [17:02] Does anyone know why my pc wont boot from ubunutu disk? [17:02] its 1st on the boot priority [17:02] no. [17:03] deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-updates [17:03] ? [17:03] neither do i, haha. [17:03] aotaointbin: should work, yes [17:03] aotaointbin: but it's still a weird situtation -- did you look in the logs? [17:03] malformed entry, (Component) [17:04] i didn't see anything in my dpkg logs [17:04] hello, world [17:04] i mean, nothing that looked relevant [17:04] and apt logs are all gzipped up now [17:04] aotaointbin: well, you need to tell it main universe, etc [17:05] aotaointbin: ... gzipped doesn't mean you can't read them [17:05] aotaointbin: zless /path/to/file.gz [17:05] i know, but i'm lazy :P [17:05] Am. Back. Sorrry was getting coffee gitters lol [17:05] there's a zless?! [17:05] quit [17:05] aotaointbin: sorry, i'm in a bad mood and that's a terrible attitude to have when someone is trying to help you. hopefully someone else is able to . [17:05] ex-chat [17:06] Bill1973, checked if your ip is banned? in fail2ban.log or sudo iptables -L [17:06] nacc: i really appreciate the help that you've offered and apologize sincerely for how i've responded. [17:06] aotaointbin: it's ok, i have had a bad 24 hours and am on a short fuse :) [17:06] dexter97: /quit [17:07] understandable. i'm just running up against the clock with some dev stuff and this unexpected package hell issue is not what i needed :( [17:07] aotaointbin: you were likely to hit it eventually with someone else [17:07] thanks for the zless tip, also. my life just got a lot easier. [17:07] dn1987p absolutely mone under iptables -L [17:08] there's a gap in my apt and dpk logs around the time that my sources.list got updated. weird. [17:08] So, I'm trying to convert a batch of files from .wav to .mp3. How would I go about doing this? [17:08] aotaointbin: that's a bit disconcerting [17:09] they both go quiet from 02-22 through 03-10, but i mean, i don't update regularly anyway, so that could be it... [17:09] Bill1973, wrong password? ^^ [17:09] OneM_Industries, try soundconverter from the repos [17:09] Works internal network [17:09] aotaointbin: ah, esp. if you only run security, you should be updating regularly [17:09] Ok. [17:09] Bill1973, you should disable root login anyway, do you have another user? and suoers set up? [17:09] but sources.list was modified on 02-27 [17:10] then maybe post your sshd_config [17:10] Yes. I login with that user locally and then use su or usually sudo [17:10] aotaointbin: so the root cause of your issue is those 3 dependencies listed are on the version from xenial-updates, but krb5-multidev is from xenial (release) [17:10] i should be, yes, but i'm a dev and have terrible sysadmin practices. [17:10] I havent tried root from external or even locally [17:10] what are ubuntu2 packages? [17:13] dn1987p. I tried root from external, same thing. ssh not recognizing external port is obviusly finding its way to pc from router [17:14] aotaointbin: in what context? [17:14] Pici: http://pastebin.com/ZQ55k7ku [17:14] aotaointbin: it just means that its the 2nd build of the package. [17:14] gotcha. [17:14] thakns. [17:14] np [17:15] i have no clue [17:15] adding xenial-updates fixed things. yay. [17:15] thank you for your patience nacc. [17:17] Bill1973, i really dont understand what you mean by that [17:17] Bill1973, but also im not a native speaker, so apologies [17:17] its like going though the worm hole with morgan freemon [17:17] just now [17:18] tracy-laptop, is there a question? [17:20] Ok. Tried root from internet. No go. Tried root locally no go. Ican login as my user locally via ssh external coonnection from internet not working [17:21] aotaointbin: np [17:21] Port 22 is open on same router as when ubuntu 14 & 15 worked [17:21] ufw is not enablef [17:21] aotaointbin: ubuntu2 means it's a difference between the base debian version and the ubuntu package, and it's the second set of changes in that difference [17:21] Is this the appropriate channel to inquire about lightdm? [17:22] caninodev: sure [17:22] helo nacc [17:22] which networking do i setup for the transfer of files in qsemru? [17:22] Hello [17:23] legortied: whichever one you want?

What is the proper way on 16.04 to tell apt to keep certain packages on a specific version? [17:24] legortied: qemu is not networking either [17:24] !hold | vlt [17:24] !pinning | vlt [17:24] vlt: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto [17:24] @Eric^^: I have researched into vnc and xdmcp but haven't been able to figure out how to use lightdm to display both local users and remote users at the prompt [17:24] Does anyone know how to install Ubuntu 16.04 alongside windows 7 [17:24] Bill1973, i dont know, restart everything and check for configuration flaws (especially NAT and sshd_config) [17:24] EriC^^, nacc: Thank you!

[17:25] legortied: whichever one you want to use [17:25] pavlos: i have read everything [17:25] I havent touched anyof it since the dist-upgrade and i did that over ssh [17:25] host-only networking [17:25] pavlos he has issues booting from CD. [17:25] Ubuntu 16.04 via CD [17:25] legortied: what does that mean? [17:25] xxcryptoxx: what issues? [17:26] It doesnt boot [17:26] xxcryptoxx: any errors? [17:26] None [17:26] nacc: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/QEMU#Host-only_networking [17:26] xxcryptoxx: can you try the cd on another pc? [17:26] No [17:27] xxcryptoxx: did you change the bios boot order to cd first? [17:27] legortied: well, taht quite clearly is bridged without a bridged device [17:27] legortied: i feel like you didn't even both reading the page you just linked me to [17:27] Yes EriC^^ [17:27] xxcryptoxx: what exactly happens when it tries to boot? [17:27] nacc iread it obviously, it's full of crap [17:28] xxcryptoxx: CD or DVD? Been some time since Ubuntu no longer fits on a CD, also how did you put the Ubuntu ISO in this "CD"? [17:28] legortied: -drive media=disk,if=ide,index=1,format=raw,file=file.img [17:28] legortied: uh... [17:28] EriC^^ it just blinks for a few seconds and then boots normally [17:28] what is this whole loop back crap meaning? [17:29] xangua no idea on that one, will have to wait for a reply from him :D [17:29] legortied: it very literally says "If the bridge is given an IP address and traffic destined for it is allowed, but no real interface...is connected to the bridge.... This configuration is called host-only networking" [17:29] legortied: very clearly says what you need to do to configure it *immediately* after in the example [17:29] Well i know during booting it reads the because it pauses unusually longer than regular and the screen is black with a blinking underscore the it goes directly to the regular boot menu EriC^^ [17:29] xxcryptoxx: is legacy mode enabled? [17:30] This bites. The only reason i found it was bored at work all night an was trying to setup vsftp for abuddy to be able to download files [17:30] I have no idea what legacy mode is [17:30] xxcryptoxx: in the bios, is uefi enabled or csm legacy? [17:30] Wow, gnu/linux is amazing! [17:31] Doesnt show legacy or uefi [17:31] k [17:31] xxcryptoxx: try holding shift when the pc boots [17:32] What does shift do [17:32] xxcryptoxx: if you have another working cd try to see if it works or also doesn't [17:32] xxcryptoxx: it might give the grub bootloader screen, just a long shot [17:33] shall i use qemu-system-x86_64 for 64 bit and qemu-system-i386 for 32 bit [17:33] Odd thing is. The tablet i use at home to ssh into same box locally has had the same user and pass across now 3 different uv7ntu version and still works but as of 16 i can no longer login from my cellphone with same user/pass [17:33] EriC^^: it said Grub Loading then went to the menu [17:33] and what is all that loop back meaning? how does it work, the theoretical concept of looping and backing [17:34] xxcryptoxx: it says try ubuntu/install ubuntu? [17:34] No [17:34] on mounting too it loops on itself, and for flash ddrive that is connected from outside nacc [17:34] xxcryptoxx: what menu then? [17:34] Went straight to the boot menu [17:34] geirha: what are your views on loopback interface/ ? [17:34] legortied, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_device [17:35] I have ubuntu 13.10 alongside windows aswel [17:35] But i want to upgrade it [17:35] xxcryptoxx: ok, did you consider booting the iso from grub? [17:35] does 13.10 support upgrading from the cd? or was that 14.04 + [17:36] EriC^^: how do i boot from grub? [17:37] I think its 14.04 most articles talk about 14.04 [17:37] legortied: in the context of disks? or in the context of networking? [17:37] legortied: why are you asking me specifically? [17:38] xxcryptoxx: 13.10!!? [17:38] xxcryptoxx: you need to fix that asap [17:38] nacc why? also he is on a very limited data plan so cannot easily upgrade :) [17:38] Yes [17:38] what is index=.. I read the manual but it's not clearly explained 0,1? what's all that [17:38] * xangua still is asking how he fits Ubuntu image into a "CD" [17:39] !eol | ChadTaljaardt [17:39] ChadTaljaardt: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release?

That's impractical and expensive [17:40] pavlos: my internet is too slow, that link can't be opened, can anyone explain instead what is all that indexing crap [17:40] manual is unclear on this [17:40] legortied: I know, i mean mean xxcryptoxx , he didn't replied [17:41] legortied, the link about loop devices? I dont know this index= you're referring to [17:41] legortied: this is not a qemu support channel [17:41] Reply to what? xangua [17:41] legortied: i'm fairly sure there is one, you are better off asking in [17:41] xxcryptoxx: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot#Menuentry_Example [17:42] legortied: and if the manpage is confusing, then perhaps you need to read more of the qemu wiki pages [17:42] legortied, there is a #qemu channel [17:42] xxcryptoxx: how did you fit Ubuntu into a "CD" and what you used to do it? [17:42] ok nacc though i came from there. but never mind, no openbsd man pages are failry easy to read [17:42] xxcryptoxx: boot the iso you have on your current hdd, put it on the windows partition so it's not touched during the upgrade, and just click in the installer to upgrade to the new ubuntu [17:42] pavlos: yes but i came fro m there [17:42] legortied: what does openbsd have to do with anything? [17:43] xangua: i meant dvd [17:43] the manuals i mean nacc have you ever used it? openbsd or freebsd [17:43] the qemu docs does assume you know a bit about the hardware it emulates [17:43] legortied, is there a specific question about the index= you referred before? [17:43] openbsd documentation is superb [17:43] xxcryptoxx: if you need any help booting the iso let me know [17:43] legortied: why are you mentioning that in the ubuntu support channel? [17:43] legortied: i don't really care about *bsd [17:43] pavlos: you wrote index=... i am asking what's tat [17:43] legortied: read the manpage, it says quite clearly what it is [17:44] legortied, I did not [17:44] EriC^^: cool [17:44] This option defines where is connected the drive by using an [17:44] index in the list of available connectors of a given interface [17:44] type. [17:44] legortied: yes, we can all read it, don't paste it in the channel [17:45] it's even grammatically wrong [17:45] am i missing something or is there no way to do l2tp connections from network manager on ubuntu atm? [17:45] legortied: then submit a fix [17:45] LiENUS start from the beginning, what brings you here, what have you tried, ubuntu version etc [17:46] lol you are being too hard on me [17:46] legortied: even grammatically wrong, it's clear what it does [17:46] MonkeyDust, tried googling network-manager-l2tp [17:46] trying to set up a l2tp vpn from ubuntu [17:48] LiENUS, with NM ? [17:48] ioria, ideally yeah [17:48] LiENUS, not sure, but you may need a plugin ... [17:49] LiENUS, http://askubuntu.com/questions/762355/xerus-missing-l2tp-plugin-for-network-manager [17:49] ioria, yeah the plugin doesnt seem to exist anywhere other than in source form or heavily outdated ppa that doesn't even contain packages for the newer ubuntu versions [17:49] Guys my ubuntu 16.04 screen is sleeping after every 10 seconds of inactivity AND this problem has started since morning ..Whats the problem ? [17:49] LiENUS, http://askubuntu.com/questions/762355/xerus-missing-l2tp-plugin-for-network-manager [17:50] LiENUS, but you need to compile by yourself [17:50] ioria, yeah which may break things even further next month when i upgrade to 17.04 [17:50] LiENUS, right [17:51] LiENUS, you recompile [17:51] Anyone here with experience on lightdm/xdmcp/vnc? [17:51] !ask | caninodev [17:51] caninodev: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [17:52] LiENUS, there is a ppa ... https://launchpad.net/~seriy-pr/+archive/ubuntu/network-manager-l2tp [17:52] I have two udiaf [17:52] http://kldp.net/projects/qps nice process manager and one of the few at linux which seems a start... [17:52] pavlos, yeah its quite a few years out of date :/ [17:53] I have two ubuntu machines.. One of which is headless.. I'd like to mix into my other ubuntu machiine both local and remote logins in lightdm. How do I do that [17:53] pavlos, stopped at Utopic [17:53] <[jasper]> at [17:54] caninodev, why lightdm ? you can use xrdp [17:54] Guys my ubuntu 16.04 screen is sleeping after every 10 seconds of inactivity AND this problem has started since morning ..HELP PLEASE [17:54] caninodev i never tried this myself, but start here http://askubuntu.com/questions/25189/remote-login-with-graphical-display-manager-gdm-lightdm [17:55] mahakal: try set -b off [17:55] legortied: i'm sorry if you feel i'm being hard on you -- but using virtualization (at the low level that is qemu) does assume you know quite a bit already [17:56] ioria, monkeydust: thanks looking into both those resource [17:56] mahakal: i think it wasn't set -b .. [17:56] s [17:56] EriC^^: xset? [17:56] ducasse: yeah! that's it [17:56] thanks [17:56] mahakal: try xset s off [17:57] What what ? i did that "set -b off " [17:57] mahakal: try the xset command [17:57] i hope that will not create any issue [17:57] ok [17:57] mahakal: no worries [17:58] EriC^^: can i put iso on usb then install on to hdd? [17:58] xxcryptoxx: sure if the pc boots usb's [18:00] EriC^^: it did not work. === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [18:01] mahakal: which de are you using? [18:01] mahakal: 'xset -dpms' [18:01] mahakal: make sure usb boot is first in the boot sequnce in your bios/uefi [18:01] sequence === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo [18:03] anni [18:03] Eric^^ : what do you mean by "de" [18:04] Eric^^: the problem has started since just some hour ago [18:04] mahakal: desktop environment, ubuntu xubuntu lubuntu etc [18:04] ubuntu 16.04.2 [18:04] mahakal: try 'xset -dpms' first, it should disable powersaving for the monitor [18:04] EriC^^: okay i have it on usb now what do i do? [18:04] did you try ducasse 's suggestion? [18:04] xxcryptoxx: restart the pc, select the usb first in the boot order and it should boot [18:05] xxcryptoxx: how'd you put it on the usb btw? [18:05] Ok [18:06] EriC^^: i copied it as iso [18:06] EriC^^: i Think that method worked .But would you please tell me where such config files are kept for future references [18:06] hmm my dns is suddenly down, any tips and tricks to get back up without rebooting or something? [18:07] mahakal: it's not in a file, it's kept in the running x server [18:07] EriC^^: no successful nslookup? [18:07] nacc: nope, it says REFUSED [18:07] EriC^^: hrm, that's odd! using local nameserver? or a public one? [18:07] ioria, monkeydust: I looked into xrdp and x11vnc... I understand the concepts.. but I have a nuance to incorporate.. On the 'client' machine, when it boots up and provides the lightdm prompt, the user is presented with the possibility of logging in remotely or locally.. Those two solutions presume the user already logged in [18:08] nacc: a local one i guess, it's the default [18:08] mahakal, idk if it survives a reboot ... just try [18:08] i added nameserver 8.8.8.8 to resolv.conf seems to be working again now, thanks anyways though [18:08] Ugh no luck.... [18:08] EriC^^: ah weird, sorry [18:08] ducasse: Thanks Bro.But i want to atleast examine the terminal related setting.How can i do that [18:08] xxcryptoxx: that won't boot [18:09] mahakal: examine what? i don't understand. [18:09] EriC^^: so i wasnt meant to use iso [18:09] xxcryptoxx: try this command, sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M progress=status && sync [18:09] xxcryptoxx: grub iso booting is something else altogether [18:09] mahakal: if you want to probe the values of the x server you can run 'xset q' [18:10] ducasse: i mean xserver's files from where it reads the required parameters [18:10] xxcryptoxx: type sudo parted -l , get the name of your usb and replace it in /dev/sdX [18:10] in the command above, that should give a bootable usb [18:10] mahakal: as i said, they're not stored in files [18:10] The name of my usb is Crypto [18:10] ducasse: "xset q" did the job.Thanks again [18:10] xxcryptoxx: i mean the file name of the device, it should be next to Disk in parted 's output [18:11] /dev/sdb or /dev/sdc maybe [18:12] ideas with what i can use my dust collecting server other than IRC? [18:12] T0t0r0: try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic, maybe [18:13] ops you are right mb [18:14] I have the same PC that is running its 3r version of Ubuntu(14 dvd install, 15 dist-upgrade & 16 dist-upgrade), same router set with static IP via MAC and portforwded, the tablet iam using can still connect with same juice app, username and password as first ubuntu 14 install. Ihad not attempted to ssh in from outside of my network since dist-upgrade to 16.04 lts. Locally everything works externally ican connect but get authentication failure [18:15] caninodev, at the moment i can only think to two different users : jhon ; jhon-remote ... if you select jhon-remote a vnc command in .profile will redirect him to the remote server .... idk if useful [18:16] Same port is op on router and i can access my osmc raspberry PIs from internet via ssh so i know portforwarding is working too [18:16] ioria: so setup a local user such that their .profile points to the other server? [18:16] caninodev: iirc lightdm supports remote logins via xdmcp, but it's highly unusual to use that nowadays. it probably also does not support all modern x extensions etc. [18:16] caninodev, only the second one [18:16] ducasse: in addition xdmcp is insecure [18:17] EriC^^: error: cant find command `sudo'. [18:17] caninodev: yes, it is. [18:17] ioria: so how would such a .profile look like? can I have the vnc client completely replace the local windowmanager with whatever the server designate? [18:18] Also i ran sudo ufw disable to test if that was the case and is not. [18:18] xxcryptoxx: go to the dash and type "startup" [18:18] xxcryptoxx: press on startup disk creator [18:18] caninodev, you already have a ~/.profile ... you need to add the vnc command [18:18] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/7mOibcG3/irccloudcapture941397289.jpg [18:19] xxcryptoxx: you're confusing stuff [18:19] ioria: right. got that.. is it possibel to subsume the local x environment entrely to the vnc client [18:19] EriC^^: omw [18:19] xxcryptoxx: grub iso booting isn't what we're doing anymore [18:19] EriC^^: what are we doing now :-) [18:20] xxcryptoxx: what you said :D putting ubuntu on the usb to boot it and install [18:20] caninodev, can you elaborate ? [18:20] Must i go into ubuntu 13.20 and type these commands or no? [18:20] 13.10* [18:20] xxcryptoxx: yeah [18:20] Ohhhh [18:20] how do i remove a ssl cert? [18:21] EriC^^: ok now im in Ubuntu 13.10 what do i do now? [18:21] ioria: {Story Board}-> user sits down on desktop, boots up, lightdm prompt appears -> user has choice, login locally using local.user with x and whatever windowanager is locally set OR user logs in remote.user, and whatever window manager set remotely is used.. [18:21] xxcryptoxx: does it have a net connection? [18:21] No [18:22] xxcryptoxx: ok, type sudo parted -l and look for your usb [18:22] caninodev, right, you can also install different DE on the server... [18:23] ioria: ok..so how do I configure lightdm to display both local.user and remote.user? [18:23] Typed i, it says parted: invalid option -- 'I' [18:23] Is there anyway to get a ecruptfs mount passphrase from an unmounted partition? [18:24] caninodev, i advice against using unity in vnc ... for that you create a new user .... [18:24] That is ecryptfs, not ecruptfs. [18:24] ioria: I am fine with not using unity [18:24] mal_misbehaving: did you try ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase? [18:24] ioria: basically I want to configure lightdm to allow either one to be a thin client or a local client [18:25] Guys three processes named : evolution-calendar* are consumin 120+ RAM memory ? Are they must for system to run ? [18:25] EriC^^: typed it in says parted: invalid option -- 'I' [18:25] xxcryptoxx: it's small L [18:25] Oh [18:26] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/SpYCxPw6/irccloudcapture540139930.jpg [18:26] caninodev, maybe i wasn't clear ... they are both real system-users ... but one (when you login) will be automatically redirected to the remote server [18:26] EriC^^: [18:27] ioria: so on the client desktop, I should setup a user that mirrors that of the remote server, configure the .profile to run vncclient instead of xclient? [18:28] xxcryptoxx: ok, so do you need anything on the usb still? it's going to get complete wiped fyi [18:28] caninodev, i lost you [18:28] EriC^^: i just want the usb to install it on to the HDD [18:29] xxcryptoxx: ok, type sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M progress=status && sync [18:29] xxcryptoxx: everything on the usb will get wiped as i said [18:30] ioria: "the real system-users".. Both local and remote have to be created on the client desktop correct? [18:31] caninodev, correct [18:31] I am trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 on an HP micro server Gen8 with 4 x 8GB disks (no UEFI). I want RAID 1, so configured an LVM VG consisting on 2 PVs which were 2 MD RAID devices across the entire GPT formatted disk. Installing Grub fails because it says it needs embedding (unclear why as Grub has native LVM and MD drivers I thought) and it can't embed without a BIOS boot partition. What's the best way to go here? Will a RAID 1 /boot on two of [18:31] the disks work? Or do I need 2 non-RAIDED identical /boot partitions? (I want to be able to boot when the RAID is degraded). [18:31] EriC^^: what does 4M mean? [18:32] caninodev, or you want exlore the 'nis' package [18:32] xxcryptoxx: 4mb, it'll make it transfer quicker [18:32] there is a lot of people here [18:33] c3VwcmlzZWJ1dHRz yes, welcome, now you're one of the crowd [18:33] EriC^^: dd: unrecognizedboperand 'progress=status' [18:33] old dd [18:33] yeah [18:33] Um 8TB not 8GB obviously [18:34] does anyone here know perl? [18:34] xxcryptoxx: try status=progress [18:34] c3VwcmlzZWJ1dHRz: yes, but there are also perl channels [18:34] cool [18:34] xxcryptoxx: try dd if=/path | pv | dd of=/path [18:35] c3VwcmlzZWJ1dHRz type /j #perl [18:35] alexbligh1: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB#GUID_Partition_Table_.28GPT.29_specific_instructions [18:36] EriC^^: dd: invalid status flag: 'progress' [18:36] xxcryptoxx: EriC^^ status=progress is a pretty new feature [18:36] that is a new flag in coreutils [18:37] xxcryptoxx: ok, nevermind the status=progress part [18:37] it just gives a progress report as it copies it, just give it a minute or 2 and it'll finish [18:37] ducasse, thanks. Does that mean I can (possibly, with parted) generate one of those BIOS grub partitions in the post-mbr gap? [18:37] pipe it thru pv, which isn't relatively new. get a progress report with no problem. [18:38] EriC^^: now all i see is the input thingy(the line that blinks nothing else) [18:38] Ok nvm EriC^^ [18:38] It did something [18:38] xxcryptoxx: ok, type "sync" [18:38] alexbligh1: gpt has no post-mbr gap as it has no mbr [18:39] EriC^^: 370+1 records in 370+1 records out [18:39] EriC^^: typed it now what? [18:39] ducasse, sorry post-GPT gap. The article you referenced said "The post-GPT gap can also be used as the BIOS boot partition though it will be out of GPT alignment specification. Since the partition will not be regularly accessed performance issues can be disregarded, though some disk utilities will display a warning about it. In fdisk or gdisk create a new partition starting at sector 34 and spanning to 2047 and set the type. To have the viewable [18:39] partitions begin at the base consider adding this partition last." [18:39] xxcryptoxx: that seems a little low and it was very quick, you sure about the iso file you gave it? [18:40] EriC^^: iso is 1,6gb [18:40] xxcryptoxx: actually nevermind [18:40] Try again later my eyes hurt. Taking a nap [18:40] xxcryptoxx: ok, reboot the pc, go to the bios settings and put the usb at the top of the boot order [18:41] 25,0988s, 61,9MB/s [18:41] EriC - I did with this result: Error: Unwrapping passphrase failed [-2] [18:41] Info: Check the system log for more information from libecryptfs [18:41] alexbligh1: i'd probably just create a small partition near the beginning [18:41] mal_misbehaving: what's your actual problem? [18:41] ducasse, was trying to rescue the existing installation [18:42] alexbligh1: right, is there space at the end? gpt needs some free space after the last partition as well. [18:42] EriC^^: it did nothing just went to menu [18:42] I wish wubi came with it [18:42] ducasse, needs to be in the first 2TB. Disks are 8TB so the end is no good [18:43] alexbligh1: he means the backup gpt partition table info [18:43] Ecryptfs drive failed. Trying to recover data. Created dd images... [18:44] Fscked to fix file system with 3% damage. Trying to unencrypt data from dd image... [18:44] EriC^^: didnt work [18:44] mal_misbehaving: did you try decrypting it with sudo ecryptfs-recover-private /path/to/.Private ? [18:44] alexbligh1: well, then you probably need to use that gap. i've never done that. [18:44] xxcryptoxx: any bios settings like usb boot or fast boot or something like that? [18:45] xxcryptoxx: try a different usb port [18:45] alexbligh1: what are you trying to do? [18:45] mal_misbehaving: ok, so the dd image is an image of the partition or the whole disk? [18:46] how do I update a single software like hexchat over terminal? [18:46] EriC^^, I installed 16.04 on a non-UEFI machine with 8TB disks - LVM'd RAID1. Won't install grub. So trying to retroactively add a bios_grub partition [18:46] EriC^^: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/kEGDaOFN/received_1079770792134530.jpeg [18:46] L00P3X: sudo apt update && sudo apt install hexchat should grab the newer version [18:47] alexbligh1: did you create a 1mb bios_boot grub partition in the first 2tb? [18:47] L00P3X also try the --reinstall flag [18:47] EriC, it is the home partition only. I can post output to commands on github, but I don't know where on github to post the text. [18:47] thank you Eric^^ i tried whit apt-get ubuntu hexchat but seems to be more complete [18:47] EriC^^, not initially. That's what I'm trying to put in the post GPT gap [18:48] MonkeyDust nice way too [18:48] L00P3X: no problem [18:48] mal_misbehaving: ok, did you mount the dd image? [18:48] EriC, yes. [18:49] alexbligh1: ok, it can be anywhere in the first 2tb [18:49] EriC, I also: sudo ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase mnt/tmp/everyone/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase [18:49] EriC^^, thanks - am giving it a try [18:49] Received: Error: Unwrapping passphrase failed [-2] [18:49] Info: Check the system log for more information from libecryptfs [18:50] alexbligh1: np, set the partition type to ef02 so grub knows where to install [18:50] EriC^^: ?

[19:00] mal_misbehaving: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [19:01] mal_misbehaving: if it didn't find the wrapped passphrase then you need the actual passphrase to decrypt it [19:01] ubottu: hello high bot [19:01] xxcryptoxx: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [19:01] ubottu: i dont === miguel is now known as Guest17295 [19:02] EriC, I have the original password used to log into the account. [19:02] mal_misbehaving: without the wrapped passphrase it won't help :/ [19:03] sorry [19:04] mal_misbehaving: are you sure you pointed it to the right dir? [19:04] xxcryptoxx: i meant the boot option in the bios [19:04] Hi Eric, no worries. I should have documented the mount-passphrase. Can you explain the difference between wrapped passphrase, mount passphrase, and my login passphrase? [19:05] Also, is there anything I can do to the original drive that might unlock that wrapped passphrase? [19:06] mal_misbehaving: the passphrase is the key used to encrypt the files, the wrapped passphrase is a file which contains the actual passphrase, but it's been wrapped (encrypted) using your login pass, so when you enter the login pass it decrypts that file, and gets the actual passphrase and does the decryption of the filesystem with it [19:06] EriC^^: the startup bios? [19:06] xxcryptoxx: or another folder [19:07] EriC, thanks. How can I view my system log? [19:07] mal_misbehaving: /var/log/syslog [19:08] mal_misbehaving: are you sure the wrapped passphrase is gone though? i find it very odd it would have disappeared [19:08] EriC^^: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/ZgiJw49o/irccloudcapture-1272665095.jpg [19:08] mal_misbehaving: i have an idea, how about try to recover the wrapped passphrase using some recovery utility like testdisk or photorec? [19:08] EriC, does this mean the headers were corrupted or the system is looking in the wrong place... [19:09] Valid eCryptfs headers not found in file header region or xattr region, inode 12 [19:09] i still find it hard to believe among all the files, it got corrupted [19:09] EriC^^: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/0JKosmmL/irccloudcapture-375088390.jpg [19:10] Also, could I try and extract the file from my non-fscked image file using photorec? [19:10] mal_misbehaving: yeah [19:10] Where would I look? [19:11] xxcryptoxx: it all looks good [19:12] xxcryptoxx: which ubuntu are you trying to install? [19:12] EriC^^: 16.04 [19:12] EriC, also, if I reset up Thunderbird, will I be able to merge the old files... [19:12] EriC, into the new setup if I'm ever able to retrieve them? [19:13] mal_misbehaving: /home//.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase [19:13] mal_misbehaving: try a quick sudo find -iname "*wrapped-passphrase*" [19:15] EriC, you mean on my currently mounted image file that I can't access? === Mack_ is now known as Guest3913 [19:17] xxcryptoxx: dunno what to do in this case, there's booting the iso from grub, but i've not had like with 16.04 kept getting an error about /dev/sr0 [19:17] give it a shot maybe you won't get the error, or somebody knows how to fix it [19:17] mal_misbehaving: yeah [19:17] also the unfsck'd one if this one fails [19:18] EriC, I'm looking at a ">" Do I need a closed quote mark? [19:18] EriC^^: how do i uninstall ubuntu, maybe thats the cause of all this mischief? [19:18] How do I move beyond the ">"? [19:19] mal_misbehaving: yes, you might have missed a " [19:19] mal_misbehaving: try sudo find /mnt -iname "*wrapped-passphrase*" [19:19] mal_misbehaving: press ctrl+c [19:20] xxcryptoxx: no it's nothing to do with ubuntu, it's before it in the bios [19:20] EriC, result: /mnt/tmp/.ecryptfs/everyone/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase [19:20] EriC^^: oh [19:20] mal_misbehaving: great! [19:20] why's it in /tmp that's pretty odd [19:21] mal_misbehaving: where is the actual home partition mounted to? [19:21] EriC, I ran a command that put it there. Let me see if I can post a link to it. [19:21] xxcryptoxx: wanna try the grub iso booting? [19:21] EriC^^: wait a bit [19:22] mal_misbehaving: try typing lsblk and see what it says under mountpoint [19:22] xxcryptoxx: k [19:22] EriC^^: looks to me like it's just mounted to /mnt/tmp, the .ecryptfs folder should be at the root. [19:22] lsblk [19:22] ha ha! [19:23] mal_misbehaving: :D [19:23] ducasse: yeah there's another .ecryptfs there too, pretty odd [19:23] EriC^^: no, each user has a subdir beneath the top .ecryptfs dir [19:24] EriC, my head is wrapped to keep it from exploding. [19:24] ducasse: aha [19:24] EriC, I think this is the relevant result: loop0 7:0 0 838.2G 1 loop /mnt/tmp [19:24] mal_misbehaving: ok [19:24] try the following command [19:25] sudo ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase /mnt/tmp/.ecryptfs/everyone/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase [19:25] Should I enter my original login password? [19:25] yes [19:26] Oh my goodness! [19:26] Wrapped passphrase appears from the ether. [19:26] lol [19:26] it worked? it gave the mount passphrase? [19:27] EriC, yes, I think so. [19:27] ok, write it down somewhere [19:28] i'd get a tattoo of it after all that happened :D [19:29] EriC, before my computer crashes, right? [19:30] yeah it's very important [19:30] EriC, I was following a tutorial that required this information... let me try it and I'll report back in a few minutes. [19:30] ok [19:31] xxcryptoxx: try this command, sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M progress=status && sync -> does this apply to DVD also? [19:31] Exterminador: no [19:32] just USB stick? [19:32] EriC, actually, I bounce what I'm doing off you b4 I do it... [19:32] after that command, does we need to type anything else? [19:32] EriC, I will input the wrapped passphrase after entering the following... [19:32] EriC^^, sudo ecryptfs-add-passphrase --fnek [19:33] Exterminador: the paths need to be correct [19:33] Eric^^, is that about right? [19:34] ducasse: yeah, but after the command finishes it's job, it's all set? or do we need to type anything else? I'm learning a bit everyday.. :D [19:34] Exterminador: no, that's all [19:34] mal_misbehaving: yes [19:35] great! that's pretty cool to create a bootable USB stick.. [19:35] mal_misbehaving: i'm not sure you need to do those steps [19:35] mal_misbehaving: try just doing as before and type the mount passphrase you got earlier [19:36] mal_misbehaving: try sudo ecryptfs-recover-private /path/to/.Private [19:36] ducasse: I need a hint.. if possible.. I need to keep an internet connection to a kinda of a webchat, that's needs to input in username and password... any way to do it from CLI? [19:37] EriC^^: Already did it. Said inserted tok with sig... [19:37] EriC^^, into the user session keyring (x2) [19:38] EriC^^ - per tutorial, I'm noting 2nd key value. [19:39] mal_misbehaving: ok, following along the guide [19:40] EriC^^, I posted the instruction at this link: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24153352/ [19:40] EriC^^, working through now, will check in a couple minutes. [19:41] Exterminador: you want to access a webchat from cli? i'd guess a lot of them depends on js etc. [19:42] so, it's almost impossible right? no way to have some kind of gui inside the vps, correct? [19:43] Can anyone help me with preseeding a 16.04 system? [19:43] recently i updated my system to 16.04 , after some time my screen turns black , what might be the problem ? [19:43] i am on 64 bit system! [19:43] EriC, entered value, hit delete, cursor won't allow me to enter correct value... [19:43] Exterminador: i'm not sure i understand the question. [19:43] How can I delete the input on the line and start over entering the input? [19:44] mal_misbehaving: try ctrl+u [19:45] ducasse, ctrl-u only gets me to the beginning of the 2nd section on input. Somehow, I have to sections and can't edit the first section. [19:45] ducasse: tbh is to keep an IRCcloud account open all the time.. but it needs email and password input. the only thing that I have that can keep it alive is the vps.. is that possible or it's better to don't even try? [19:45] two sections, not to sections. [19:46] mal_misbehaving: try cancelling it with ctrl+c [19:47] Exterminador: in theory you might be able to cobble something together, but it would probably be slow and a bit of a hassle. [19:48] anyone please help ! [19:48] !patience | theparadoxer02 [19:48] theparadoxer02: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [19:49] EriC^^, that worked, but I need to start over. On it now. [19:49] ducasse, i thought no one payed attention.will mind next time! [19:49] mal_misbehaving: try the sudo ecryptfs-recover-private /path/to/.Private if you can [19:49] ducasse: thanks anyway.. let it be. :) [19:50] theparadoxer02, check your power and session setting timers [19:51] EriC^^: is there anyway to upgrade in terminal for DVD or usb in terminal [19:51] EriC^^, OK. On it now. [19:53] xxcryptoxx: yes, you can do an upgrade using the internet [19:53] EriC^^: find: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied [19:53] xxcryptoxx: i mean no, but you can use the internet to upgrade [19:53] EriC^^: isnt there a file i can mod [19:54] mal_misbehaving: did you give it the /mnt/path/to/.Private ? [19:54] xxcryptoxx: i dont think so [19:54] xxcryptoxx: you can't upgrade from usb or dvd [19:55] Thats literally the dumbest thing ever, not being able to upgrade via usb or dvd [19:55] isn't possible to upgrade with core manager or whatever it's called? or the current OS of him is way too old? === cyborg is now known as Guest98655 [19:55] xxcryptoxx: i'd go for the grub iso booting [19:56] EriC^^: okay give me the steps [19:56] xxcryptoxx: boot into the ubuntu install you have right now [19:56] Exterminador: not from usb/dvd, only network [19:56] Im in EriC^^ [19:56] xxcryptoxx: copy the iso to the windows partition [19:56] EriC^^: its on the desktop yea [19:57] مرحبًا جميعًا :) [19:57] xxcryptoxx: no i mean on the windows partition [19:57] hi all! I'd like to upgrade my qemu from 2.6.1 to 2.8, but 2.8 is not yet available. However I found it here: https://launchpad.net/qemu . How can I upgrade to 2.8? I'm on Ubuntu 16.10. [19:57] Or must i put it in C EriC^^ [19:57] xxcryptoxx: yeah exactly [19:57] *not yet available from apt [19:57] yanosh: 2.8 is in 17.04 only [19:57] xxcryptoxx: yeah put it in the main dir so it's easy to get to [19:57] yanosh: 16.10 only has one version of qemu, others are unsupported [19:58] oh, yeah.. it's true.. we need internet access to do that.. btw, after an upgrade into a development version, is it possible to downgrade to the LTS version or it needs to be reinstalled from scratch? [19:58] yanosh: and 2.8 will never be in 16.10 officially [19:58] EriC^^: i just put it in Local Disk [19:58] nacc, ducasse, do I have to upgrade to 17.04 ? [19:58] Exterminador: nope, it needs to be reinstalled [19:58] Exterminador: downgrades aren't a thing in ubuntu, reinstall is your option [19:58] yanosh: yes, but that's not released yet [19:58] EriC, yes: sudo ecryptfs-recover-private /mnt/tmp/everyone/.Private [19:58] yanosh: if you insist on 2.8 [19:59] EriC^^, I'm following the instructions I posted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24153352/ [19:59] nacc, my problem is that I can't enable 3D acceleration on virtio driver. I'm getting this error: virtio 3d acceleration is not supported [20:00] when trying to start vm [20:00] EriC^^: done [20:00] mal_misbehaving: try giving it this line [20:00] mal_misbehaving: try the sudo ecryptfs-recover-private /mnt/tmp/.ecryptfs/everyone/.Private [20:00] yanosh: if that is a big issue for you, wait until 17.04 is out and then upgrade [20:01] Result: INFO: Found [/mnt/tmp/.ecryptfs/everyone/.Private].

[20:02] yanosh: and you know this is fixed in 2.8? [20:02] I wanted to give it a chance. [20:03] not sure what's the problem [20:03] mal_misbehaving: yes [20:04] yanosh: that should not be a problem with a normal guest, something else might be wrong. [20:05] yanosh: or do you mean "too slow for games, but not too slow for desktop work"? [20:05] ducasse, it too slow for desktop work too [20:05] EriC, INFO: Found your wrapped-passphrase [20:05] Do you know your LOGIN passphrase? [Y/n] [20:05] mal_misbehaving: press Y [20:05] enter the user pass you usually had [20:05] yanosh: then i suspect a deeper problem. [20:06] yanosh: you don't need 3d accleeration for desktop or games (afaik) [20:06] Eric^^, can I ctrl-v the wrapped password? I received an error when I just did this. [20:06] mal_misbehaving: no need for the wrapped one [20:06] mal_misbehaving: type the usual user login password [20:07] EriC^^, INFO: Success! Private data mounted at [/tmp/ecryptfs.NkuaD91n]. [20:07] mal_misbehaving: great! [20:07] nacc, its like a comic book you know. GUI goes with like 5 FPS [20:08] erm.. when I try 'ssh root@localhost' on my lappy it says 'connect to host localhost port 22: connection refused' is that router related or some kinda firewall on the OS? [20:08] yanosh: then something is definitely wrong. [20:08] yanosh: that is abnormal in general, how are you connected to the guest, howa re you configured it? [20:08] I suspect something is wrong with my ubuntu host because when I try to enable 3D acceleration I can't even start the guest. [20:08] Exterminador: root ssh disabled? [20:08] nacc, I configured it in virt-manager [20:08] EriC^^, I see the directory structure, but I'm not finding individual files. [20:08] Jello [20:09] Exterminador: try systemctl status ssh [20:09] I need to be with root to do that? [20:09] mal_misbehaving: how about the size of the dir? [20:09] Exterminador: no [20:09] nacc, I set virtio devices everywhere I could. [20:09] EriC^^, OK, I found a couple. Maybe the missing files are corrupted. I'll check dir size. [20:10] inactive (dead), on my wife's user account [20:10] mal_misbehaving: try df -h [20:10] nacc, this is the command generated by virt-manager: http://pastebin.com/h5n2hBpx this is the last working version [20:10] Exterminador: try sudo systemctl enable ssh [20:10] erm.. Loade: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory) [20:11] Exterminador: ok, try sudo apt install openssh-server [20:11] EriC^^, it might be find. Maybe a delay in loading. I'll play around for a bit. [20:11] mal_misbehaving: ok [20:11] erm.. my wife don't have sudo privileges.. [20:11] EriC^^, that was awesome help... Thx. [20:12] mal_misbehaving: no problem [20:12] yanosh: per https://www.kraxel.org/blog/tag/virtio-gpu/ gl=on must be passed, as its off by default [20:13] EriC^^: okay im on the command line in Grub [20:14] xxcryptoxx: type ls and get the name of the windows partition [20:14] hd0,msdos2 or so [20:15] how do I add my wife user account to sudoers list?

We don't want to diverge from Debian without good reason [20:31] nacc, I can't decide if this virtio 3D acceleration thing can even be accomplished or should I just give up. [20:32] yanosh: it cannot be accomplished using ubuntu packages [20:32] yanosh: probably wait til 17.10 or 18.04 [20:32] yanosh: you don't need 3d acceleration to use a desktop [20:33] yanosh: (in a VM) [20:34] nacc, okay no need for 3D acceleration, but I seem to be not having any HW acceleration at all [20:35] EriC^^:5% complete :/ [20:40] yanosh: the defaults from virt-manager should be sufficient to use a desktop in a VM [20:40] yanosh: if they are not, then something else is the problem, with most common hardware [20:47] so i installed kdeconnect and it pulled a whole bunch of kde packages to my system but the kdeconnect package was broken and didnt work so I uninstalled it but didn't uninstall all the dependencies that it downloaded...

[21:08] ScorpiusZ: that's *not* an answer [21:08] ScorpiusZ: an expert *what*? [21:08] ScorpiusZ, use it, read about software, like the many of us.

[21:10] ScorpiusZ, sure there is a 'server' tab on the top panel [21:11] list rooms [21:11] ScorpiusZ: this freenode network has too many channels to search it with the client. better use the alis bot like the ubottu told you [21:11] https://linuxnewbieguide.org/ [21:11] nacc, There are no entries for sda6 or sda3 and listed in grub menu why should i be showing kernels [21:11] Thanks scott [21:12] ScorpiusZ, tip 1: xchat is no longer under development, use hexchat instead ( = clone with security patches) [21:12] texla: what? update-grub doesn't configure the disk you have installed grub on [21:12] you'll probably find more usefull articles with google [21:12] texla: "why should i be showing kernels"? that doesn't make sense to me [21:12] Oh I just installed this from store [21:12] I'll do hex chat thank you [21:13] texla: can you show a "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999" [21:13] texla: all `update-grub` does is look at kernels it finds in /boot and updates the grub configuration file with those entries [21:13] Hi guys.

[21:18] ScorpiusZ, tip 2: install synaptic, a detailed softwarecenter ( softwarecenter gives metapackages only) [21:18] texla: i understand if you are not a native English speaker, but I genuinely don't understand that sentence [21:18] texla: and grub1 != grub2 if you recnetly updgrade [21:19] I missed tip 1 [21:19] ScorpiusZ: tip 1 was to use hexchat :) [21:20] synaptic package manager is what I need to download? [21:20] nacc, I recently upgraded to grub-pc 2.02 and that is when the display changed [21:20] texla: show us "dpkg -l | grep grub" [21:20] texla: grub2 has been the default since 16.04, i believe [21:21] texla: so you mean you upgraded from 14.04 -> 16.04? [21:23] EriC^^, http://pastebin.com/07hdcpVL [21:24] we got a grub update today .. 2.02 indeed [21:24] texla: looks good [21:24] nac [21:26] EriC^^, Before upgading grub the kernel info showing in a window between boot and login [21:26] texla: do you want that back? [21:26] texla: so you don't mean update-grub at all, you mean grub itself? [21:27] nacc, no I mean it now shows up in update-grub [21:28] texla: there was never "a new windows" when running update-grun [21:28] how do i update grub? [21:28] texla: do you mean grub customizer or such? [21:28] texla: the menu grub displays is unrelated to the output from `update-grub` [21:28] ScorpiusZ: you dont need to as enduser. [21:28] But what is it for? [21:29] !grub | ScorpiusZ [21:29] ScorpiusZ: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [21:29] ScorpiusZ: grub is the "bootmanager" when you boot up. if you have more than one OS installed it lets you choose what OS to boot. [21:29] Okay so Grub is Ubuntu BootMngr [21:29] texla, so before the upgrade, you got a grubmenu to choose from? [21:29] k1l, Before upgrading grub it showed the display that comes when booting for selecting sda6 orsda3 [21:30] ScorpiusZ: its a linux bootmanager. not only ubuntu. it can boot windows, too [21:30] this IT stuff is exhausting [21:30] ScorpiusZ: so far nothing you've said is IT :) [21:30] texla: i think you are mixing things here. update-grub did never show that. [21:30] https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/ [21:30] OerHeks, yes that is correct [21:30] Thanks for pointing tht out nacc [21:30] is texla just looking for the 'advanced menu' ? [21:31] ScorpiusZ: as i said, for the regular user, grub just works and you dont need to touch that [21:31] Has anyone here taken CompTIA A+? [21:31] nacc, I would like to remove 22 kernel entries from update [21:31] So I think the problem is with the steam.postrm script in /var/lib/dpkg/info I ran it in debug mode and get https://bpaste.net/show/f9fb57ab77a4 [21:32] texla: the "advanced menu" is not displayed in the output on terminal when running update-grub. but its included in the grub when booting. [21:32] texla: you want to remove the kernels? `sudo apt autoremove` [21:32] texla: pastebin "dpkg -l | grep linux-image; uname -r" [21:32] texla: remove the kernel packages. that will remove them from grub and make your get some disk space back. [21:32] oh ya, nevermind texla use nacc 's command [21:33] nacc, sudo apt autoremove only removes autoremovable entries in synaptic [21:33] texla: apt is not related to synaptic, i don't know what you mean [21:33] texla: and you only need to keep the most recent two kernels, general [21:33] *generally [21:34] texla: "dpkg -l | grep linux-image | nc termbin.com 9999" [21:34] texla: so unless you manually installed a bunch of kernels, autoremove should know what to do [21:34] texla: or removed the metapacakges [21:34] texla: and "ls -al /boot | nc termbin.com 9999" [21:34] Has anyone here taken CompTIA A+? [21:34] !ot | ScorpiusZ [21:34] ScorpiusZ: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [21:34] texla: show this output urls here so we can see some facts [21:35] k1l, http://termbin.com/lr6p [21:35] Ok it was definitely the postrm script blocking the purge.. weird issue [21:35] seems like autoremove should work [21:35] bonsairoot: strange, were you able to fix it? [21:36] Well Ubuntu is on the A+ [21:36] texla: so that is a 14.04 32bit? [21:36] ScorpiusZ: so? [21:36] So I want to know if anyone taken it and how this applies to that or is that to ask in the other room? [21:36] ScorpiusZ: this is the Ubuntu support channel (see /topic) for resolving issues with Ubuntu [21:36] ScorpiusZ: this channel here is for supporting technical ubuntu issues. for general chatting we have #ubuntu-offtopic [21:37] nacc, yea managed to purge it now [21:37] k1l, http://termbin.com/5tcv [21:37] #ubuntu-offtopic [21:37] texla: "lsb_release -sd" "uname -a? [21:37] join ubuntu-offtopic === Agent_ is now known as Agent [21:38] nacc, It may be unbelievable but autoremove performed the operation stated [21:39] k1l, ray@ray-Kudu-Pro:~$ lsb_release -sd" "uname -a [21:39] Usage: lsb_release [options] [21:39] lsb_release: error: no such option: - [21:39] ray@ray-Kudu-Pro:~$ [21:40] texla: that are 2 commands [21:42] k1l, Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS [21:42] ray@ray-Kudu-Pro:~$ uname -a [21:42] Linux ray-Kudu-Pro 4.4.0-66-generic #87-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 3 15:27:09 UTC 2017 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Lin [21:42] texla: ok, so you want to get rid of th 3.13 kernels? [21:43] texla: performed what operation? [21:43] k1l, Yes and maybe keep only 4.4.064 and31 as backup [21:44] texla: "sudo apt purge linux-image-3.13* linux-image-extra-3.13* linux-headers-3.13*" [21:45] nacc, When i ran sudo apt autoremove it didnot remove any kernels only packages in synaptic [21:45] texla, autoremove keeps the current 4.4.066 and 64, for recovery, that is enough. [21:45] they're prorbably set to manually installed [21:45] texla: synaptic is not related to any of that [21:45] texla: i see; then something must be holding them via manual install [21:46] and yes, wild clicking in synaptic can lead to such things like manually holding packages [21:46] lol [21:46] yes [21:51] k1l, http://pastebin.com/5pmKFynJ [21:52] texla: yes, that should have worked now [21:54] Hey, I-m trying to install the synaptic gesture for the ubuntu notebook pad and I get this error [21:54] configure.ac:51: error: must install xorg-server development files before running autoconf/autogen [21:54] how do I fix that error [21:54] k1l, http://pastebin.com/idj500kg [21:54] I'm a noob [21:55] I left windows behind [21:55] Sympathy points from here! [21:55] k1l, Show I not be showing sda3 and sda6 in that update [21:55] j4f-shredder_: is xorg-dev installed? [21:55] I just installed ubuntu [21:55] I don't know anything [21:55] texla: i still dont know what you mean with sda6 etc [21:56] texla: "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999" [21:56] k1l, sda6 is Ubuntu and sda3 is Linuxlite [21:57] texla: so that is a totally different issue. [21:57] texla: why did you not say that in the beginning… [21:57] I am struggling to install wine on ubuntu. I get wine1.7 has no installation candidate [21:57] texla: "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999" [21:57] btw, 5th time i ask for that parted list now.... [21:57] how do I install xorg-dev [21:57] j4f-shredder_: sudo apt insatll xorg-dev [21:58] j4f-shredder_: sudo apt install xorg-dev [21:58] (sorry, had a typo) [21:58] k1l, http://termbin.com/mw5i [21:59] texla: "dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999" [22:00] usually, grub should look for other OSs on the other disks/partitions. maybe dmesg has a reason why it doesnt find that linuxlite. [22:01] Hello. how do I know what GPU i am using? i have a laptop with intel hd and amd radeon something. I also had problems when connecting to docking and using external display with my hp zbook g2 [22:01] OlofL_, open terminal : lscpu [22:01] or look at your manual [22:01] k1l: Thanks, I have another problem [22:02] it asks for another dependency [22:02] libevdev [22:02] >=0.1 [22:02] 0.4 [22:02] OerHeks: grep what?

[22:31] Olanzapin, what guide did you follow? [22:32] https://bitbucket.org/sanrath/ [22:32] Hello [22:33] Olanzapin, that is no guide, just a download [22:33] https://bitbucket.org/sanrath/mediatek_mt7610u_sta_driver_linux-64bit [22:33] guide [22:34] no, again a download :-( [22:34] oh wait .. [22:34] installs ok but i dont get the card to work properly [22:35] ive got a problem. Want to burn the ubuntu 10.10 netbook iso on a usb stick, but my netbook only shows my this text("Operating system not found") when i try booting from my dongle. Maybe someone here knows a way to fix this [22:35] rufus [22:36] jakobflamm, 10.10 is dead, use a supported version [22:37] OerHeks I know that but i cant really run 12.04 on my netbook (god knows i tried). Stuttering all over the place even when i forcefully install the linux netbook kernel [22:38] rufus in windows only right? [22:38] yes [22:39] thougt you have enoter computer [22:41] jakobflamm: use the Lubuntu iso. and use a recent one. like 14.04 or 16.04 [22:42] jakobflamm: Lubuntu is made for old and slow hardware [22:44] ty k1l Ive got lubuntu on a other usb stick (new version) but i also cant get the result i want (youtube and flash are still horrible) [22:52] jakobflamm: at some point you hit the limits of your hardware's capability [22:53] Hey, so I have a partition, for example /dev/sdb1, that I want to completely move to /dev/sdc. What's the best way to go about doing this? [22:53] Like, move the partition and the data inside it. [22:54] mcphail guess so but im gonna try atleast ;) [22:57] tsimonq2: One can only resize (move ?) partitions into adjacent unallocated space . [22:57] Bashing-om: So not from one disk to another? [22:57] tsimonq2: Simpler to just mount both and then sudo mv * /sdb1mountpount /sdc1mountpoint [22:58] genii: Aren't there weird permissions issues when doing that? [22:58] i.e. won't root own everything? [22:58] tsimonq2: mv preserves everything [22:58] tsimonq2: Situation as combining partitons on separate disks is the functions of raid and LVM . [22:59] genii: And you're 100% sure that I can do that? Just making sure before I do something that might wreck my system... ;) [22:59] (Yes I know, backups... :P) [22:59] !search apt [22:59] Found: muon, laptop, uses apt's stuff for getting and searching packages, if*, xbug*, slow, source, adeptcrashfix*, apt-proxy, touchpad, oneko-#ubuntu-offtopic and 79 more, see http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi?search=apt [22:59] Bashing-om: But I'm doing something completely different here [23:00] tsimonq2: Something like: sudo mv * /sdb1mountpount/* /sdc1mountpoint ...actually. Otherwise you'll get a structure like /sdc1mountpoint/sdb1mountpount/whatever-else-here [23:00] Olanzapin Ty its booting ;) [23:00] genii: Gotcha, zsync'ing an ISO now so I can dd it onto a USB drive [23:00] tsimonq2: As genii advises . maybe best to change the pointer rather than move the data . [23:01] Bashing-om: Huh? [23:02] tsimonq2: mountpoint as a pointer to the data in reference . [23:02] Bashing-om: I still don't get what you're referring to.
