[00:00] Heres the Scenario, I have a AP on the network that has a static IP on some random subnet, its acting as a bridge only. No dns/dhcp/default gateway, pure layer 2 as far as I can tell. How can I find its IP address without factory resetting the whole setup. === lethu_ is now known as lethu [00:02] Mchammerdad, is this your homework? [00:03] oerHeks, it is atleast if you consider thats this is at my house. [00:04] You would be ble to see this rule in your router [00:05] at least a connected mac adress === David is now known as Guest76344 [00:06] hi [00:06] am i muted 0.o\ [00:07] can anyone hear me? [00:07] we can see you. [00:07] oh [00:07] good [00:16] hi [00:16] hello [00:16] ubuntu loading dots [00:16] it took long time [00:17] What version do you have? [00:17] im on win 10 [00:17] VM? [00:18] i has ubuntu iso on my usb flash already [00:18] Shouldnt use a flash drive [00:18] It will wear out really fast [00:19] Unless you want it to be temperary? [00:19] i want a dual windows 10 and ubuntu on one laptop [00:19] Then why not use an external hard drive [00:19] what that external? [00:20] It would last a lot longer and in the long run would be cheaper then buying usbs left and right [00:20] However Depending on ram and hard drive space you could also run a virtual machine that would do the same job but on the same hard drive [00:21] so that would be the cheapest option [00:21] i has 64 GB Usb Flash [00:22] yea your using the usb like a hard drive [00:22] but there is to much reading and wrighting [00:22] it will wear it out [00:22] currupt all your data [00:22] my radeon6870 just started reving the fan up full blast when I scroll (browser, etc.), and performance (scrolling) is really bad (< 1fps). has there been any changes to dpm or radeon related stuff over the past week or so? [00:23] create new partition? [00:23] partitions on the drive dont matter [00:23] it will still wear out [00:24] my advice to you would be to use a VM. or to get an external hard drive to mess around with [00:24] it will still wear out means deleted right? [00:24] it means your files will be currupted and unrecoverable [00:24] How much RAM do you have? [00:24] and what version of ubuntu are you using? [00:25] \on my computer? [00:25] on your USB [00:25] Yea on your computer where the fuck else would you find ram [00:25] how? [00:25] sorry language [00:25] lol [00:25] your using windows ten? [00:26] .... [00:26] Go to the Windows search bar and type “My Computer”. You’ll get “This PC” desktop app, Just right-click on it and choose “Properties”, as shown in the image below. [00:26] radeonFAN: question is....have YOU installed any newer kernels over the past week or so? [00:26] No image [00:27] copy paste i dont use windows [00:27] only the ones that came down the offical update channel. 16.04. I tried flipping back one kernel, but same issue [00:27] ram is 2.00 GB (1.89 GB usable) [00:29] radeonFAN: in terminal> sudo apt install inxi pastebinit [00:29] radeonFAN: let me know when its done [00:30] What ubuntu are you using Eric? [00:30] tsimonq2, You can either edit using command line or if you prefer a UI look into https://launchpad.net/~danielrichter2007/+archive/ubuntu/grub-customizer [00:30] not yet im on win 10 [00:31] i mean what ubuntu do you have? [00:31] and after its done loading does it seem slow at all or is it just loading that is slow? [00:32] Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS ISO on my usb flash [00:33] is it just the loading that is slow? [00:33] yup [00:34] My best guess is you did not get a flash drive with a fast enough read write rate. so it takes a while to read the OS. [00:34] read/right rate [00:34] Eric_____, you using usb2 at all or does your computer only have realy old usb1? 2 gb ram tells me your computer is old [00:34] na he could be using a laptop [00:35] old? [00:35] im on laptop [00:35] he is running windows 10 his computer is not that old [00:35] VM is not ideal for you. [00:35] btw [00:36] my latpop is works grat [00:36] great [00:36] -_- im dumb lol its laptop === Menzador is now known as SonikkuAmerica === SonikkuAmerica is now known as Menzador [00:39] Read write rate is my best guess @Eric____ [00:40] I would say definitely get a usb 3.0 [00:40] should increase speed [00:40] do i turn fastboot off [00:41] or just dualboot linux and win [00:41] uefi ? if so turn off fastboot and secureboot to make life easyer for you [00:41] "easyer" [00:41] xD [00:42] did turned fastboot off and secureboot is disabled [00:42] and now you want to install ubuntu ? [00:42] yup [00:43] dual win 10 nd untuntu [00:43] i would boot your win again and resize partition there before starting install just to be on safe side [00:43] so you have empty space that ubuntu can use [00:44] how resize partition where? [00:44] xD the same way you created it [00:44] dik manager? [00:44] disk [00:45] run diskmanager in win 10.. win + r "then type" diskmgmt.msc [00:45] dik manager is the way to goooo [00:47] i start type run then typed diskmanager.msc [00:47] yep [00:48] its said invaild [00:48] RIP [00:48] Eric_____, diskmgmt.msc [00:48] not diskmanager..

[04:07] about* [04:11] can anyone help me to set up a cron job? [04:11] this is what I have: http://pastebin.com/A4GLUzDn [04:12] I want cron to run a script, and the script checks to see if a process is running, if not it starts it. [04:14] chris11, I have some experince using cron on other *nix systems [04:14] ok, cool. [04:16] do you see anything wrong with my setup? [04:18] I'm not that familiar with Ubuntu controls. Do you know anything about the command line interface? [04:18] a little bit. [04:19] ps ax | grep -v grep | grep $process > /dev/null just searches for a process with the name in hte process variable. [04:19] The cron daemon (called survace in Windos) must be running to work. [04:19] "ps ax | grep -i cron" [04:20] its running as root. [04:21] the script works when I run it my self. [04:23] to list things you have queued to run under cron you can use the cammand "crontab -l" [04:23] just lists this: [04:23] PATH=/usr/bin:/home/ubuntu/python_files/process_folder_for_blocked_ratios [04:23] */1 * * * * br_make_run [04:25] chris11: you have PATH in your crontab? [04:26] It's been I while I"ll need to look on some man pages for the memory to refiesh [04:26] I read that was sometimes suggested when you didn't put scripts in the normal places. [04:28] is br_make_run a shell script? [04:29] its a bash script I think. === ansivirus is now known as Guest18541 [04:29] chris11: you can't do that in crontab [04:29] really? why not? [04:30] because, anyway just put the full path to the script [04:30] which you should do anyway for cron stuff [04:31] The thing to remember is that environmental variables are not always the same when I process runs under cron. When I use to cron cron scripts I was sure to include the complete path to the file. [04:32] ok, that's good to know [04:33] Is cron fresher in your mind? I remember there were a few tricky things. But the brain fog is stow to clear. Are you better at helping? [04:36] anyone running an old macbook 2,1 [04:39] how is it going? [04:41] ok. not setting the path in the crontab was a good idea. I accidently reset my path variable, but I got that fixed. [04:42] anyone running an old macbook 2,1 [04:46] does it matter if cron can't write to the file? [04:47] when you type "crontab -l" does it give you an error? [04:47] no === jpugarte1 is now known as dckx [04:48] do you want the script to write to a file whenever it runs? [04:49] no [04:49] I was just wondering if chmod 755 would prevent cron from running it. [04:53] br_make_run is the script you want to run correct? Does the first line start with #/bin/bash or somthing liuke that? [04:54] i am going to upgrade my ubuntu server from 14.04 to 16.04. should i be worried about breaking my icecast server when i upgrade? === baggar11_ is now known as baggar11 [05:00] does br_make_run is the script you want to run correct? Does the first line start with #/bin/bash or something like that? [05:03] ok I have my test script running [05:04] no it does not. [05:04] should it? [05:06] alright, I just added that line. [05:07] My suggestion is that you create a new test script that runs once per minute. That way you can see if everything is running and you have permissions. Do you want to try that? It will append to a file in your home directory. [05:07] I tried that * * * * * touch t.txt worked [05:08] My home wifi network is not visible in ubuntu but all the other devices such as phone and windows laptop can access the wifi. What would be the issue ? [05:09] good [05:10] check if device driver for wifi is installed [05:11] zerofinish, all other wifi signals it can capture but not the home one. I can see my hotspot wifi from the phone as well. [05:11] What is the location of the script you wish to run? is it /home/myname/br_make_run or somthing like that? [05:12] yeah, its something like that. [05:12] actualy the file does not to need a #!/bin/bash on the first live I took it off and it it is still working [05:12] interesting [05:14] I don't know if it needs to "chmod 755" your file, but it dosn"t hurt. I would sugest that you use "*/1 * * * * /home/myname/br_make_run" with the real compleat path [05:15] I did both [05:15] dv [05:16] ryban [05:16] I'm a little confused about .sh Should it be at the end of my filename, and should it be at the end of the path in the crontab? [05:16] alnr [05:16] shafox, try restarting the network manager 'sudo systemctl restart network-manager' [05:17] To creat a test script I suggest you have a test script with two lines "date >> /home/myname/test-out.txt" and the next line "printenv >> /home/myname/test-out.txt" [05:18] when you type ls is your file "br_make_run" or "br_make_run.sh" you don"t need the sh, but it is a good way to rember that the file is a shell script. [05:18] ok, I'll try that. [05:18] type "ls" for list [05:21] printenv prints out all the environmental varubles. Your home directory is an environmental varuble. the comand 'cd' takes you home and ~/test-out.txt is a file in your home directory. However if the varuble HOME is not set corectorly they will not work [05:24] that is why I suggest you include the full path to wher the test script sends to. "~/test-out.txt" should work, but if $PATH is not set (in the cron job) it will not work. Mine apears to be set corectaly [05:24] just always use full paths [05:24] hello [05:24] :D [05:25] , but if $HOME is not set (in the cron job) it will not work., it is realy best to use full paths like Ben64 said === john is now known as Guest40635 [05:27] how is it going [05:27] I'm trying the test script. [05:28] did you mean try to see if cron could start it? or just start it myself? [05:30] after you create your test script. put it in as "* * * * *" with the compleat path and script name. It should run every minute. [05:32] wait, it should be date << file.txt, right? [05:34] no use >> that pushes the output to your file. Also use a compleat file path because you don"t know the curent directory when the script is running [05:35] ah, just a minut. I had an error in the cron job [05:35] mine seams to start the curent directory as my home, but don"t depend on it. [05:36] I used a complete path [05:36] ok, that worked. [05:36] HOME=/home/ubuntu [05:36] LOGNAME=ubuntu [05:36] PATH=/usr/bin:/bin [05:36] LANG=en_US.UTF-8 [05:36] SHELL=/bin/sh [05:36] PWD=/home/ubuntu [05:38] good now you will see what it takes to get a script working [05:38] zerofinish, will try that [05:40] ok, thanks [05:41] well I"m going to take care of my bizz [05:41] thanks for the help. [05:41] your welcome [05:41] the only distro that succesfully live boots on my system is unfortunately chinese (ubuntu kylin) [05:42] i've also tried systemrescueCD, opensuse, and ubuntu 16.04. only chinese ubuntu works [05:42] weird - what is your hardware [05:46] 2 pascal cards [05:46] and a haswell cpu [05:46] custom build, anton02 ?? [05:46] who doesnt? [05:48] does there need to be a space betweeen the comment section and the first cronjob in crontab? [05:48] anton02: what kind of errors do you encounter whe trying to install? [05:48] !cron | chris11 [05:48] chris11: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto [05:48] doesnt mention any errors just locks up [05:49] anton02: lockups at wich points? [05:49] near the beginning of the boot process [05:49] anton02: did you try press F1 to see text mode at boot? [05:50] anton02: where specific? can you see ubuntu dots loading? grub? [05:50] after grub [05:51] anton02: what kind of graphics card do you have? [05:52] pascal [05:53] any reason a script would fail if I used absolute paths but work if I used relative paths? [05:53] Is there any PDF/book reader which gives an option to trim the margins or empty spaces for easy readibility in tablet mode? [05:53] anton02: sudo lshw -C video please [05:54] it's two SLI gtx 1070 [05:55] anton02: think its those GTX 1070 that might refuse boot [05:55] ok [05:55] anton02, in sli ? [05:56] anton02: try few things: test other ubuntu versions 14.04 or 16.10 and !nomodeset, and F1 at boot for errors [05:56] !nomodeset | anton02 [05:56] anton02: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [05:56] yeah, already tried nomodeset. it's the only way i got chinese ubuntu to boot [05:56] suggestion, anton02: try lubuntu [05:57] with nomodeset [05:57] next one im trying is trueOS [05:57] OK, --- so why were you here again? [05:57] because im talking about ubuntu' [05:58] is there a way that I can help casper find the iso image that contains an Ubuntu system? [06:00] himcesjf: not sure if its what you need, but Mupdf is pretty nice & lightweight [06:00] The ISO is on the root directory of filesystem sda8. grub was able to loop mopuint it and get the kernel and initrd === anonymous is now known as Guest53058 [06:01] anton02: try other kernel versions also [06:02] anton02, so ubuntu does not boot with nomodeset? [06:02] no [06:02] well, chinese ubuntu does [06:02] unbelievable .. [06:02] a bit skeptical myself [06:03] unless there is some way off base hardware in that custom build [06:03] anton02: is your system uefi or legacy booting? [06:03] uefi [06:03] anton02: have you tested installing ubuntu in legacy? [06:03] no [06:03] anton02: try all the suggested steps please and come back ok [06:04] ok [06:04] anton02: and keep in mind this is ubuntu support, we support only ubuntu [06:06] TheLexx: whats your end goal mate, what are you doing exactly? === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo [06:36] !ping [06:36] pong!

[07:15] skcin7: update your system to 16.04.2 first please [07:15] I'm using OpenVPN to try to connect, with command "sudo openvpn --config client.ovpn", which works fine on other machines like my MacBook Pro, but is not working on my Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS box. [07:16] lotuspsychje Hmmm okay. Do you think that might help? [07:17] skcin7: well, lets close that out [07:17] skcin7: always keep your system up to date, to stay out of trouble [07:20] anyone in here having any problems playing youtube vid on ubuntu mate [07:21] herbuntumate_: did it work before? [07:21] ya [07:22] herbuntumate_: when did things start to go wrong? [07:22] i did some update and it quit working [07:22] herbuntumate_: can you recall if it was firefox 52? [07:23] "some update" .. so we need to ask what update ? [07:23] after i did some update yesterday i have no sound and the vid play to fast [07:25] i did update in the software boutique. i did a reinstall and now its ok [07:25] just woudering what might have gone wrong [07:25] herbuntumate_: its after the fact now...the past...so no analysis can be performed [07:26] .. had to tell without the issue present. no logs ? [07:26] herbuntumate_: unless you're just looking for shots in the dark also known as guessing [07:26] so a non-solvable-problem as it is fixed :-D [07:28] i just dont want it to happen again. its a mistory to me [07:28] no data = no answers. [07:29] k. i will keep a close eye on it to see if it happens again [07:30] weird [07:36] Ok lotuspsychje I'm on 16.04.2 LTS now. [07:44] I can successfully connect to the VPN from my local machine, but when I try to from my Ubuntu box, it just hangs there. [07:44] If anybody has any help or might have any ideas, it would be greatly appreciated. [07:46] skcin7: what operating system is "my local machine"? === Jochen_wvdT is now known as Schlawiner [07:47] MacBook OS X Sierra [07:47] And I can also connect to the VPN via iOS iPhone [07:48] skcin7: and is it on the same LAN with the ubuntu machine? ...that's a yes or no question there.... [07:48] Why can't I see my home wifi network ? I am alble see every other wifi network in my system but not the home one. How do I resolve this ? I have already restarted the network-manager and networking, but still no visibility of the wifi [07:49] skcin7: with the same .ovpn file, no changes? [07:49] 2 different Ubuntu boxes which I own and control with completely separate IP addresses. 1 is the VPN server, 1 is the VPN client. I'm trying to route all traffic from the client to the server, so that outgoing connections from the client will say it has the server's IP address. [07:49] shafox: are you able to manage your home wifi at any level / [07:49] ducasse, no changes to the .ovpn file whatsoever [07:50] skcin7: love how you avoid answering the yes or no questions....good luck using that strategy [07:50] tatertots, I can use my home network wifi in other devices such as phone, windows laptop and ubuntu laptop as well but not in one of the system which is dell vostro 2520. [07:50] tatertots, I tried to dns-clean but got error on restart [07:50] The same "sudo openvpn --config client.ovpn" command successfully connects to the server on my OS X Sierra, but it is not connecting properly on my Ubuntu 16.04.2 [07:50] Tatertots, different LANs [07:50] If there are lots of wireless networks nearby, the network you are looking for might not be on the first page of the list. If this is the case, look at the bottom of the list ... to display the rest of the wireless networks. [07:51] https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/net-wireless-find.html [07:51] shafox: the reason i asked that is because if i started to talk about modes like a/b/g/n or 2.4ghz vs 5ghz and where and how to manage them would you have that deer in the head lights look on your face? [07:51] tatertots, I have both 2.4 and 5ghz. [07:52] So I'm not sure what could be different about the Ubuntu machine to cause it to not connect to the VPN, when the .ovpn is the same. [07:52] skcin7: can you add --verb 4 to the command line and see what pops up? [07:53] shafox: ok...and do you know what mode you are operating in? [07:54] tatertots, I have 802.11abg [07:54] from the lshw -clkass network [07:54] shafox: that's not what i was referring to but ok.... [07:55] shafox: you're focused on the computer itself....and that's fine and dandy.....i was talking about the "network" [07:55] ducasse Options error: You must define TUN/TAP device (--dev) [07:56] tatertots, how would I find that ? [07:56] shafox: answer this yes or no question [07:57] shafox: have you ever seen the embedded web server user interface of your modem/router? [07:57] tatertots, no. [07:57] shafox: yes or no....there's no bad or wrong answer...i just want to further understand where your head is at [07:58] tatertots, no [07:58] I have not. [07:59] shafox: you can view (and possibly connect) to other wifi networks....that's enough to validate the functionality of the wlan adapter itself...only if you could configure your wireless network to be more like the ones you CAN pick up [08:00] tatertots, I can view and connect to other network, e.g. I can connect to the hotspot wifi through my phone. [08:00] tatertots, I have netgear r6220 router. [08:01] shafox: try clicking either of these and report the results http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.0.1 [08:01] shafox: maybe one of those will get you to the right place [08:03] shafox: did either of those get you somewhere? [08:03] tatertots, I can connect to my router from different system i.e. this one which is a windows. Do you want me to connect from the system where I cannot access the wifi network? If so I can enable wifi hotspot and then can report. [08:03] shafox: it does not matter from where you access it ...whats important is that you access it [08:04] tatertots, in that case I am on the router home page. [08:04] shafox: did it ask for a password? [08:04] tatertots, yes user and pass, [08:05] shafox: ok ...sounds like you had enough information to gain access to it [08:06] shafox: navigate to the area regarding wireless, if you do not understand what is there or what it does screen shots can be posted to http://imgur.com [08:06] tatertots, i can access that. tell me what are you looking for. [08:07] shafox: what i talk about modes....i'm talking about the modes you would find in your netgear router web page.....not talking about your computer at all when i talk about "modes" [08:07] shafox: can you confirm what mode you are operating in? [08:08] tatertots, for the 2.4ghz i see modes are enabled on ssid broadcast and 20/40mhz coexistence. [08:08] shafox: is there two independent radios? one for 2.4 the other for 5 ghz? if so there is likely two ssid's to boot [08:08] tatertots, for the 5ghz only ssid broadcast. [08:08] tatertots, yes there are two. [08:09] tatertots, for the modes i can see upto 300mbs for 2.4ghz and upto 867mbs for the 5ghz [08:09] shafox: make note of the ssid to each....are they the same ssid? [08:09] hello every1, how can I install xfce in ubuntu?¿ (even use it) [08:09] or gimme a tutorial to install unity 2D plz [08:09] tatertots, both have different ssid, one is netgear and another one is netgear-5g [08:09] turista, sudo apt install xfce4 [08:10] (sry for my wrong english) I'm using ubuntu 16.10 x64 [08:10] it does not show [08:10] gonna try with that number [08:10] ducasse, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24163011/ <--- Not sure if you can tell there why the OpenVPN connection is failing. [08:10] It seems to be getting stuck on OPTIONS IMPORT part [08:10] shafox: no mention of a,b,g,n or ac anywhere? [08:10] tatertots, nope. nothing of that sorts. [08:11] tatertots, can I pm you the screenshot or shall i post it here ? [08:11] shafox: you can pm me the link to the imgur.com screen shot....hexchat file transfer is far from reliable [08:12] tatertots, sure [08:13] skcin7: seems to fail when it's about to up and configure the new tun interface, if i understand this correctly. [08:14] tatertots, imgur.com is not able to upload wait for a bit to upload. [08:14] Do you think something might be configured wrong on the client itself? Is it an error with the .ovpn file? ducasse === Chris^ is now known as Kazuto [08:14] !info network-manager-openvpn-gnome [08:14] network-manager-openvpn-gnome (source: network-manager-openvpn): network management framework (OpenVPN plugin GNOME GUI). In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.6-2ubuntu1 (yakkety), package size 74 kB, installed size 496 kB (Only available for linux-any) [08:16] tatertots, Thats all i get from the page. [08:18] shafox: temporarily set 2.4 ghz to 54Mbps max, remove encryption and double check that no mac filtering is taking place, apply the changes, the router will reboot itself to apply the changes, check to see if it shows up then [08:19] skcin7: i'm not sure, tbh, i'm not very familiar with openvpn. have you considered asking in #openvpn? show them that log and ask for help, if they tell you it's an ubuntu problem they might at least say where it is. [08:21] tatertots, now it shows up the 2.4ghz one. [08:22] hello [08:22] my ubuntu verry slow [08:23] shafox: that means you were configured in such a way that put your network at conflict with the capabilities of the adapter [08:23] tatertots, ahh ok. [08:23] tatertots, what are my options ? [08:24] shafox: you should put things back one at a time until you reveal which change results in a loss of communication, you will need to apply the changes and allow the router to reboot each time you make a change [08:25] tatertots, ok. First I will enable encryption. then will up the modes. [08:25] shafox: put the encryption back like it was initially and see if that results in a loss of communication...that will rule that one single factor out [08:27] tatertots, stuck at the first. Enabled encryption and now it doesn show up. [08:27] shafox: that's a good thing....you found the culprit [08:28] shafox: simply use a different encryption [08:29] shafox: be glad you didn't spend days or weeks focused on treating that linux computer versus the "network" [08:30] tatertots, currently it was wpa2-psk[aes) and i changed it to wpa-psk(tkip)+wpa2-psk(aes) and it is showing up. [08:30] tatertots, it has been like that for a long time [08:30] shafox: i think i saw you in here with this issue yesterday.....but now you've made some real progress and identified exactly what is causing the issue....which was a incompatibility of encryption standards [08:31] shafox: security is futile [08:31] shafox: i think its safe to crank your speed back up from 54Mbps now [08:31] tatertots, yeah yersterday i sat down to fix this issue. [08:32] tatertots, i got an warning while ramping up from 54 to 300mbs that it may not work in the encryption level is selected. but it did restart the router. [08:33] Wonder how long on average it takes the CIA to crack ubuntu password encrypting. Maybe CIA invented the encryption under an alias with backdoors [08:33] shafox: you'll know when it comes back up [08:36] tatertots, it does connect. [08:36] shafox: good deal [08:38] let me restart and try to see whether it is still working just in case. tatertots thank you so much for the patience and the guidance. [08:39] shafox: no problem my friend === topi`_ is now known as topi` [09:03] hi, I'm trying to install ubuntu 16.10, but get problems with grub. So I run boot-repair-disk from a USB-stick, but the program complains that it is not in EFI mode - anyone knows what to do? [09:07] magnus_: is your computer old. [09:08] a few years, yes [09:08] 2-3 years I think, maybe 4 [09:09] magnus_: go into bios disable secure boot [09:09] magnus_: what was the problem with grub in the first place? === rymate12- is now known as rymate1234 [09:13] eh..... well...now, when I rebooted it, it actually worked.... hrm. I rebooted to get the grub error msg but it just booted [09:14] maybe helped just to ask.....;) well, actually, I changed some bios settings and that seems to have made a difference [09:14] !yay | magnus_ [09:14] magnus_: Glad you made it! :-) [09:19] guys, what do the Ubuntu developers use to patch the kernel? [09:19] what kind of hacks do they use? [09:20] can I install a vanilla kernel? [09:21] <\9> i'm not sure what exactly is done but i figure they backport fixes and stuff like that? [09:21] <\9> if you want vanilla, use arch or something [09:21] ok [09:21] <\9> nothing stops you from compiling a kernel yourself but that goes in conflict with the package system [09:22] I know [09:22] I've already tried clang to compile the latest kernel. [09:22] some modules it failed to compile. [09:22] Fyr: also certain functionality might depend on the ubuntu patches [09:22] ducasse, what functionality exactly? [09:23] hibernation? [09:23] Fyr: last time i tried, lxc broke for example [09:24] Fyr: i really wouldn't mess with compiling the kernel without a very good reason. [09:25] ok [09:25] it gave me a huge performance increase on opensuse. [09:26] on Intel's i7 49XX CPU. [09:28] Fyr: that's not my experience at all, but feel free to experiment. just be aware that if you break it you get to keep all the pieces. [09:29] (= [09:31] Fyr: i might get yelled at for suggesting this, but if you want to test a patched kernel check out projects like liquorix. they have prebuilt packages for debian/ubuntu. it's still completely unsupported, of course.

[11:34] sayres, can you try to boot from live usb version and check if there is an issue? [11:34] dn1987p: immediately when i connect to internet by wireless my ubuntu is frizzed and nothing is not registered on syslog or other logs. [11:35] FMan: you would need to upgrade to 16.10 first, you can't upgrade 16.04 to 17.04 directly. [11:35] well maybe then its a hardware defect? [11:35] and not a system issue [11:35] if the issue persists under any system configuration [11:35] dn1987p: now i am in ubuntu with 4.4.0-31 kernel , i have this problem with 4.4.0-64 and 66 linux kernel [11:37] right, I'll keep that in mind, but I'd do a fresh install due to Boost not working right...

[11:41] you said that before [11:42] you can also try doing network configuration without network manager [11:43] sayres, https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 if you want to try, take a look here [11:44] dn1987p: I use external wireless device .let my I plug out this and see that is there any driver for this.

[14:45] k1l: no not work ,my problem still remained [14:46] ioria : no but i have not disabled it [14:46] sayres_: i still dont know if that is a driver or hardware issue since you cant say or run a clean ubuntu [14:46] sayres_, IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlx00304f8b1f0f: link becomes ready [14:47] sayres_, but it shouldn't be an issue [14:47] k1l: http://termbin.com/5lqt still the same [14:48] i clean all of ppa [14:48] k1l: I dont think it is because of hardware issue .because in 4.4.0-31 version of kernel ,work perfectly [14:49] ioria: yes ,I don't think an ipV6 cause the problem [14:49] sayres_: is there a chance to run a ubuntu without all your packages and changes?

[14:50] ioria: yes ,exactly [14:50] RonWhoCares: its not the standard when it freezes [14:51] sayres_, modinfo rtl8192cu please [14:52] ioria: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24164740/ [14:53] sayres_, you are on 4.4.0.31 right now ... [14:53] ioria : yes, i need internet and in this kernel i have it [14:54] ioria: do you want modinfo rtl8192cu to other kernel? [14:54] sayres_, well, we need the dmesg from your 66 kernel, yes [14:55] ioria: ok . i need restart my pu.i will come back soon [15:01] <_Trullo> ok after update to latest ubuntu it aborted or something, too many errors.. now I get a black screen with a bunch of letters.. ending with kernel panic, not syncing VFS, unable to mount root fs.. [15:03] ioria : https://paste.ubuntu.com/24164797/ [15:04] how did you update [15:04] ioria: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24164806/ [15:04] <_Trullo> I got a question when I logged in [15:05] ioria: this is info from 66 kernel [15:07] ioria: i think before connect to internet everything is ok [15:08] sayres: what video card is it? [15:08] sayres_, i see [15:08] k1l: now ,default but befor nvidia [15:08] sayres: did you install the ubuntu nvidia driver from the repo? [15:09] i saw some crazy motherbords which didnt work properly without the prop driver from nvidia [15:09] k1l: yes , but now I have not installed yest [15:10] sayres_, it freezes when you run the dhclient command or when exactly ? [15:10] k1l: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24164844/ [15:10] sayres, ioria https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1666421 did you see this one already? [15:10] Launchpad bug 1666421 in linux (Ubuntu Yakkety) "kernel 4.4.0-63 with USB WLAN RTL8192CU freezes desktop" [High,Fix committed] [15:11] dn1987p, he's using 66... but thanks looking ... [15:11] oh alright i somehow thought it was 63 [15:11] which would be odd though [15:12] dn1987p, same the issue still there in 66 [15:12] dn1987p : no but i have problem with 64 and 66 [15:12] sayres_, it freezes when you run the dhclient command or when exactly ? [15:13] What is the easiest way to setup a printer? Any explanation why it's not as easy as in windows? [15:14] ioria, [High,Fix committed] does that mean the fix is already available through official sources [15:14] dn1987p, committed not released [15:14] PCatinean: yes, easy explanation: because the manufacturer dont ship the same quality drivers and software as for windows. [15:15] k1l, and windows holds like a central repository copied from linux-style repositories and automatically install on windows startup? [15:15] sayres, when does it freeze exactly ? [15:16] PCatinean: i dont understand what you mean [15:16] k1l: the last one log file [15:16] ioria: exactly ubuntu is connected to internet . you think when ubuntu fist ping from internet [15:16] k1l: http://termbin.com/obwv [15:16] how can i resolve em? [15:16] When you start windows and plug in a printer it automatically installs the drivers and it works out of the box. I just assume printer manufacturers make the driers and microsoft published them in a central repository [15:16] That enables this automatic find&install procedure [15:16] ioria: exactly ubuntu is connected to internet . you think when ubuntu give first ping from internet [15:17] sayres, so when you run the dhclient command ? [15:17] PCatinean: yes, the manufacturers work together with microsoft for that. [15:18] ioria: exactly [15:18] sayres, why don't we try witout dhcp? and set it static ? [15:19] ioria: how can i do exactly? [15:20] sayres, sudo service network-manager stop [15:20] XATRIX: "apt-mark showhold | nc termbin.com 9999" [15:20] ioria : ok ,so!!

[17:37] YmFzZTY0, no, it's ok, grub will be reinstalled [17:37] ioria: you had me so worried there [17:38] YmFzZTY0, sy, when you remove ubuntu you erase the bootloader [17:38] YmFzZTY0, but if you reinstall it, it should be fine [17:39] OK, thanks! [17:39] guys i seem to have a large name on my external wifi card does anybody know how to permanantly change it to something more simple like bob? [17:41] lol [17:42] <_sfiguser> hello all, i have a problem with my linux, "NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s!"; it doesn't poweroff or shutdown... i do it manually after these messages, and the brightness sometimes dims... with no particular cause... can it be something related to acpi ? it is a 4.4.0-53-generic kernel [17:47] k1l http://paste.ubuntu.com/24165747/ [17:48] virtuosoj: what ubuntu is that exactly? [17:48] i only find debian people with such issues [17:49] k1l, ubuntu 16.10 [17:49] freshly installed basically. I'm going to now try to install it with the Mate software boutique [17:49] and if that doesnt work i might just go back 16.04.2 [17:49] virtuosoj: wait [17:49] quit [17:50] virtuosoj: run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" first. [17:50] k1l, that did nothing [17:50] 0 upgrade [17:50] virtuosoj: then "sudo apt install libxtst6:i386 libxrandr2:i386 libglib2.0-0:i386 libgtk2.0-0:i386 libpulse0:i386 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0:i386" [17:51] k1l, eyy it worked! ty! [17:52] although my question now: why is it running in 32bit mode? [17:52] steam is the 32bit hell [17:52] or am I understanding that wrong [17:52] because they didnt make it work with 64bit at all. [17:52] that's... fucked up... [17:53] hey everyone, ive tried upgrading the Kernel of my Ubuntu 16.04.02 distro however selinux-policy-default is erroring out with "error processing package selinux-policy-default (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 137" after attempting to upgrade to kernel 4.4.0.66.70. If i purge the default policy my system [17:53] is able to update to the next kernel. Does this mean SELinux is no longer compatible? [17:55] guys i seem to have a large name on my external wifi card does anybody know how to permanantly change it to something more simple like bob? [17:55] guys i seem to have a large name on my external wifi card does anybody know how to permanantly change it to something more simple like bob? [17:56] The version of SELinux I am using is 2:2.20140421-9 (if anyone wants to look at it for reference.) [17:57] I have non UbuntuInstaller files on my Installer Disk, this causes the installer to crash, after it says 'scanning the CDrom' is there a fix to this other than removing the files on the drive? [17:59] k1l, everything working great, thanks! [18:02] Sorry for repeating my question, but is there a way to make sure that the UbuntuInstaller doesn't crash even though there are extra files on the UEFI Installer Disk [18:05] I have the On Screen Keyboard enabled in Universal Access but how do I make it show up? [18:05] I need to use it as a virtual number pad [18:06] if anyone wondered what the resolution was for the help I requested it was stopping all processes (it was a memory problem.) [18:07] hello every1, I finally did install xfce4 yesterday but I don't know how to use it [18:07] someone told me that it would prompt me after the reboot but nothing happend [18:08] turista: install "lightdm" [18:08] turista: that is the login screen. that will prompt you then to login to the gui :) [18:09] gosh, I didn't know about it, lemme check [18:09] turista: yes, only installing xfce doesnt install a *dm [18:10] by the way, since some days ago I manually set the screen resolution of the computer cuz after the restart it always drop a bunch of errors [18:10] please may someone advise me on how to stop the Ubuntu Installer from crashing [18:11] YmFzZTY0 describe the symptoms, in one line [18:11] with the xrandr and I was wondering if I can set it up directly on a file [18:11] btw I did install the stuff, should I restart now?¿ [18:11] YmFzZTY0: i dont understand what the issue is. [18:12] hi [18:12] Crashes after showing 'scanning the CD-rom' this is probably because I have unrelated files also on the Disk, I am 'unable' to remove these files as I need them and they're too large to transfer [18:12] i did installed ubuntu iso on poweriso then its worked [18:13] By the disk, I mean my flash drive with Ubuntu Installer [18:13] YmFzZTY0: you are using the ubuntu usb? [18:13] k1l, yes [18:13] then i need help with dual windows 10 and ubuntu on one laptop [18:13] someone using tomcat server on ubuntu here? [18:14] kl? [18:14] yup kl [18:15] now im on ubuntu [18:15] YmFzZTY0, how did you do the stick ? [18:16] ioria: unetbootin, using Ubuntu, I then later added a folder with my backup files onto that USB stick [18:16] YmFzZTY0: is that a usb pendrive or a hdd? [18:16] YmFzZTY0: unetbootin is known to make issues. [18:16] k1l, it's a usb pendrive [18:17] YmFzZTY0, oh, i'am not good in customized ubuntu isos [18:17] YmFzZTY0, on ubuntu i suggest dd, on win rufus [18:17] ymfzzty8 u need PowerIso easy [18:18] PowerIso is easy [18:18] YmFzZTY0: the adding files should not make issues. but unetbootin makes issues since it changes the bootloader(syslinux) stuff [18:18] I wonder wich's the next step after installing lightdm >_< [18:18] should I restart now?¿ [18:18] turista: reboot? [18:18] thx gonna do that now [18:20] kl? [18:21] Wait, nevermind, the error wasn't 'fatal', it just wasn't good, ubuntu should work. thanks for your help! I'm going to try the install [18:21] ymfzzty8 use powriso [18:22] poweriso [18:23] kl you there? [18:24] Hello [18:24] I have a strange problem as of yesterday [18:24] My external disk does not work [18:25] It is somehow recognized but it is not accessible [18:25] kl?

[18:41] riccardo, like 4.8 or 4.4 ? [18:41] Eric_____: Dual-booting is quite easy on Windows 10. Are you familiar with shrinking your hdd from Disk Management in Windows? [18:41] strive: yeah it is, also if you pass it a symlink it won't work, i was just messing about with finding which package my nc was from minutes ago, dpkg -S $(readlink -f /bin/nc) helped go through the maze of symlinks === marianne is now known as Guest15183 [18:42] riccardo, that kernel it's not stock [18:42] EriC^^: You rock dude, thank you. [18:43] it wont install without Grub Boot loader [18:43] <_Trullo> k1l, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24166111/ [18:43] strive: no problem [18:44] _Trullo: so what did you do before this problem? [18:44] _Trullo: because that is a lot of missin updates [18:45] Eric_____: you need grub to boot ubuntu. so follow the instructions [18:45] ioria, it comes from mainline [18:45] ioria, I suppose so [18:46] how to get grub [18:46] <_Trullo> k1l, ubuntu wanted to install the latest upgrade [18:46] riccardo, i know... what ubuntu 16.10 ? [18:46] riccardo: the mainline kernels are not stock kernels and miss some features from ubuntu [18:46] ioria, how can I see what kernels I am using [18:46] riccardo, i told you ... uname -r [18:46] Eric_____: the ubuntu insatller will install grub. so follow the regular instructions [18:46] ioria, yes, that is the kernel I am using. I remember having some other kernel. Let me reboot to a stock one. [18:47] riccardo, are you 16.10 or 16.04 ? [18:47] _Trullo: what is the output of "lsb_release -sd" and "uname -a"? [18:48] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot right?

[18:50] <_Trullo> no, I just booted it up today. and a question came up if I wanted to upgrade [18:50] _Trullo: so you did the 14.04 to 16.04 upgrade? [18:50] <_Trullo> think so, it's was a big download [18:51] has anyone noticed that VLC downloaded from the software center won't automatically play the contents of a folder? I'm on 16.04 [18:51] _Trullo: sudo apt remove insserv [18:51] _Trullo: then "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" [18:52] <_Trullo> too many errors [18:53] <_Trullo> I got error on the first line too [18:53] show the output in pastebin [18:54] ioria, nothing changed [18:54] uddane, did you install the snap or the deb package?

[18:57] <_Trullo> k1l, that last line? no [18:57] Eric_____: run the ubuntu usb and install ubuntu. it will install grub. [18:58] _Trullo: i dont see what you see. so its important to show the pastes [18:58] uddane, Ubuntu Software lists two vlcs. Did you use Ubuntu Software to install?

[19:02] ioria, but I can learn it [19:03] riccardo, you can try this parameter "usb-storage.delay_use=5" [19:04] I paste it in the terminal? [19:04] riccardo, nope :þ [19:04] I'm having trouble doing anything with a hard drive I just added. fdisk returns `fdisk: cannot open /dev/sdb: No such file or directory` -- but I know it's there and I see /dev/sdb exists. [19:05] Am I using the wrong utility? [19:05] ioria, where then? [19:05] riccardo, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters [19:05] riccardo, in grub [19:05] ioria, thanks I read it [19:05] hi everyone, Can I use a .exe program on ubuntu 16.04? [19:05] asdasd [19:06] Anonymous [19:06] EXPECT US [19:06] not without emulating [19:06] riccardo, but i assume your disk is ok ... healthy i mean === anonymous is now known as Guest92594 [19:06] Or maybe running wine [19:06] & [19:06] #$%^&*()*)(&^@#!%^W($% [19:06] i want to copy a compact flash card [19:06] xheart, Lookup Wine [19:06] ??????? [19:06] ???????????????????? [19:06] ??????????????????// [19:06] xheart, what do you need to run an exe for then? [19:07] xheart, can't you use dd? [19:07] the .exe is the flash card program exetension [19:08] i want to do an exact copy [19:08] xheart: to a same sized flash drive? [19:08] xheart, I think you should look for an alternative, you can probably use dd to do that. [19:08] yes exact everything [19:09] i conect the flash card reader and usign the dd? [19:09] i connect the flash card reader and use the dd? [19:09] the dd is a program or a command? [19:09] xheart: yeah, get the names of the disks and do sudo dd status=progress if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/sdY bs=4M conv=sync,noerror && sync [19:10] if= is the source and of= is the destination [19:10] Hi [19:10] xheart: terminal command [19:10] It's a program, but I think it's only available from terminal. [19:10] Is Unity 8 somehow stable? [19:10] but can i transfer the info to the pc then copy to the flash card? [19:10] xheart, Yes [19:11] xheart: yeah, put of=/path/to/file bs=4M conv=notrunc,sync,noerror [19:11] xheart, storage devices like flash cards are actually the same as a file [19:12] why is it always failed when i created bootable iso using dd command? [19:12] i copy/ paste that command did not recognize [19:12] i failed to boot, i just tried to create ubuntu iso image [19:13] xheart, you can't just copy it [19:13] i made me using windows again [19:13] it made me* [19:13] xheart, you'll have to fill in the arguments [19:13] xheart, what exactly do you want to do? [19:13] i want to transfer the file to the pc then copy to the flash card [19:14] xheart, and where is that file? [19:14] on the compact flash card [19:14] xheart, so you want to copy a file from flash to the pc, right? [19:14] xheart, You wanted to clone the compact flash right? [19:14] yes [19:15] yes [19:15] xheart, or just a file? [19:15] Weird: gdisk is telling me -- Disk /dev/sdb: 0 sectors, 0 bytes [19:15] clone the compact flash [19:15] But it's a 3TB disk? [19:16] xheart, check with your 'disks' utility what dev your compact flash is. [19:16] Or does anyone know a better way to determine that? [19:17] xheart, insert flash, df should list the device [19:18] ok [19:19] xheart, something like /dev/sdX where X is b,c,d,e,f, ... [19:20] xheart: if you run df -h, you can identify it by its size -- you may have a few devices in /dev/sd* [19:20] hi. i want to install ubuntu 5.04 (yes, srsly) on a 64bit machine. will that be possible with the installation files available in the ubuntu archives? [19:20] ok [19:20] you like sudo apt df? [19:20] debioul, rather old release [19:21] xheart, No [19:21] Should be installed by default [19:21] ok [19:21] just run df -h [19:21] Then you see what devices are mounted and what size they are. Then say whish /dev/xxxx file your compact flash is [19:22] correct [19:22] sda1 [19:22] xheart, you could try, lsblk [19:22] sdb1 also [19:22] Like, if your card is 32gb and you find one that is 32G, what one is it? [19:23] xheart, try this, lsblk | nc termbin.com 9999 and give us the url [19:23] be careful, sda1 may be your root partition.. [19:26] xheart, like pavlos said, just copy "lsblk | nc termbin.com 9999" in your terminal, you'll get an url. Share it with us, then we can see what storage devices are on your pc. [19:26] xheart, sample output ... http://termbin.com/s7a3 [19:27] TIL about termbin. Cool. [19:27] Ok, so I'm trying to force a new partition scheme on this disk I have. Starting to worry something is irrecoverably wrong. [19:28] I am having trouble booting into my account [19:28] Something about mdm [19:28] pavlos i will try with wine [19:28] apowl, I didn't know about it too. [19:28] xheart, why wine? we are working with ubuntu and linux [19:28] So I went to terminal and startx now i am here [19:29] Here is the output I get when I print the partition table via gdisk: `Disk /dev/sdb: 0 sectors, 0 bytes` [19:29] It is as if I am not connected to my file system [19:29] Uh, I don't think that will work. That was what I adviced when he just asked about running exe files. Haha. [19:29] hi [19:29] apowl, try fdisk -l and throw the termbin at the end [19:30] It's not showing up via fdisk -l. that gives me: fdisk: cannot open /dev/sdb: No such file or directory [19:30] but gdisk does see it. [19:30] And I see /dev/sdb there. [19:30] #oieee [19:30] #vcs chupam? [19:31] apowl, try sudo parted -l /dev/sdb | nc termbin.com 9999 [19:31] can anyone help me? [19:31] Has anyone had success mapping the Thinkpad X41 tablet buttons to their actual function? [19:32] Kostas, mint display manager? [19:32] I've followed the instructions here, but haven't had any luck with the buttons such as rotate screen: https://www.linux.com/learn/installing-ubuntu-904-ibm-x41-tablet [19:33] pavlos: sdb isn't showing up http://termbin.com/glpt [19:33] !pm | Kostas [19:33] Kostas: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. [19:33] I've got the screen to rotate, and the stylus works [19:35] no pm please, kostas i read only here [19:35] apowl, replace parted with gdisk and give the url [19:35] When I log on it first told me the mdm was not connected or that I am not the owner of my folder then, i startx which i noticed the my folders looked diffeent, first i am at elivated privliges then I can not view into my file system because i do not have the permissions for it [19:35] Kostas, mint display manager? [19:35] Yeah, gdisk is the only that sees it. Reports this issue: http://termbin.com/jiat [19:35] what is that? [19:36] Kostas, you say mdm, so i ask. [19:36] oh i didnt know what that stood for [19:36] mint is not supported her, they have their own issues [19:36] now when i log on it goes to a black screen with my mouse pointer free [19:37] Kostas, there is a mint channel !mint [19:37] apowl, sdb is empty [19:37] Is the scancode the same as a keycode? [19:38] pavlos: that's what's weird. It's definitely a disk, and it's 3TB. [19:39] apowl, maybe you can try gparted (gui) and verify disk data, the partition table may be corrupt [19:39] I'm just not sure if it's picking up the keycodes (0x6c) and how I would map that to a command [19:40] pavlos: this a server, so no gui, but I'm trying to write a whole new partition table anyway. [19:40] pavlos: does it need a current table for that to be possible? I had thought not [19:41] does the age of a usb matter. will it wear out faster? Getting tails os so will be repeatedly booting of of it [19:41] apowl, so the disk has no data, then parted should let you make new partition, format it, etc [19:42] Curry, more a Q for ##hardware [19:42] OerHeks, aight thnx ill head over there [19:42] Curry, uhmm [19:42] Curry, hold on a dab off topic sure but [19:42] SebthreeBQM10HD, sure [19:43] Curry, yes if you ikeep on putting things on a usb, and taking off again etc, that is more likely to wear out the usb more over time [19:43] ioria, here I am [19:43] I tried but I was not successful [19:43] Curry, plus ubs in genreal probably are only desgined to really last a few or so years, before they might have issues, I guess [19:43] riccardo, does it work in another pc ? [19:43] Surprised noone here has had experience trying to map a hardware key to a command [19:44] SebthreeBQM10HD, aight. appreciate the info. i was just going to dedicate to staying as a bootable tails, so shouldnt be too much of a prob. but the usb is like 6 yrs old so ill find another one [19:44] ioria, I am trying now [19:44] riccardo, ok [19:45] Curry, a six years usb will probably work, but for more important things, I would suggest newer usbs yeah [19:45] a year or two or so, is still new in this context, if not used, and kept ok [19:45] pavlos: the issue is the 0 size. When I try to create a partition (via gdisk) I get: `Problem: partition 1 is too big for the disk.` [19:46] SebthreeBQM10HD, yea it was barely used, just a couple pdfs and stuff. should be good then. thnx [19:52] oh wait, or did the site refer to mapping the shortcut to the keycode, and then in the file, set the keycode to a mapped key on the keyboard? [19:53] hi guys :D [19:53] Im new [19:54] Woohoo! I think I figured it out haha. I'll have to try it tonight. Since the hardware key is mapped to a physical key, I then have to create a shortcut for the physical key to a command === DerRaiden_ is now known as DerRaiden [19:57] apowl, does this help? https://joshstrange.com/ubuntu-formatting-a-3tb-drive/ [19:58] <_Trullo> if I need to reinstall ubuntu, what do I need to backup?

[20:58] No. this is in "software" on ubuntu [20:59] I am running ubuntu gnome and ubuntu studio on this machine for 2 different projects and the software app in both is telling me to do this. I am just wondering if there's any way to get rid of it. dell's site shows that I am on the most current "bios" [21:00] If I didn't absolutely need this machine I would run it to see if it bricks so I can let everyone know not to do it. But alas, I am not made of money and this precision laptop was quite expensive. [21:00] plexdave1, oh, seems legit > Ubuntu 16.04 and later natively will notify you for BIOS updates https://www.dell.com/support/article/nl/nl/nlbsdt1/SLN171755/updating-the-dell-bios-in-linux-and-ubuntu-environments?lang=EN [21:00] i think that number is the bios number [21:01] Trying to run bootinfoscript..getting syntax error near new line using sudo ${0} What wrong? [21:01] That's actually a model number schema for dell latitudes. The series they are showing is 5th gen, I am on 6th gen. It's all wrong, I didn't even think about running it, but I was just curious about it so here I am. [21:01] plexdave1, to be sure, ask dell support? [21:02] plexdave1, their docs say bios/firmware updates are (finally) possible [21:02] I get their newsletter for this model laptop and it alerts me to bios updates. Is there any way to tell "software" to ignore that? If someone else is using this machine, they might just think "oh an update"....

Is there default configuration I need to change to allow it to be accessible, or? [22:09] wedgie: "sudo apt install ffmpeg mpv" like you would install any package.

I have a Thinkpad X41, I have the rotate screen working, but I can't get the hardware buttons to map any of the actual things they are supposed to do [23:57] I've followed the instructions here: http://zootlinux.blogspot.ca/2009/06/thinkpad-x41-tablet-and-linux.html [23:58] hmm 2009 is rather old, maybe they no longer work on current systems. [23:58] thinkwiki.org is usually a good resource for thinkpad on linux [23:58] But, if I can get the rotate to work, I'm sure I can still button map the physical buttons to work [23:58] I did check out the thinkwiki.org, but it didn't provide much support with this [23:59] I used the coding table here:http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Tablet_Hardware_Buttons
