[00:00] I made a script: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24167865/ [00:00] And on top of that, I have it starting with the startup applications [00:01] So in my dumbness, I blew up /boot. Is there an easy way to recreate it? [00:02] murrdawg: hmm yes i guess that's what i would have done, too. i'm afraid i can't help if that doesn't work. you'll need to map the scan codes on your own using xev or the like. [00:03] The only way I can see that perhaps I messed up, is under the startup applications, I add the /etc/rc.local [00:03] apowl: is your system still running or did you try to reboot after the fact? [00:03] tomreyn: still running. [00:04] apowl: was /boot a separate partition? if so, recreate it. see /etc/fstab for something which mouints to /boot if you dont know. [00:05] tomreyn: yes, it's a separate partition -- /dev/sda1 [00:05] tomreyn should I be making it an executable? or leave it as is? [00:06] apowl: so this partition still exists? and the file system on it as well? [00:06] Partition still exists, filesystem is blown up. [00:06] From df -h: /dev/sda1 3.0Z 3.0Z 0 100% /boot [00:06] Z :) [00:06] apowl: which ubuntu release? [00:07] 16.04 [00:07] is /boot full? [00:07] I corrupted the FS by `dd`-ing sda1 instead of sdb1 :( [00:07] Partition is still there. [00:07] ah oke [00:07] Wondering if there's a way to recreate /boot [00:08] so force unmount it, create a new ext4 file system on sda1 [00:09] apowl: sda1 was that the EFI partition ? [00:09] then mount it at /boot, then reinstall the linux-* packages you currently have installed. [00:10] Bashing-om: probably. To be honest I'm not sure how to check. [00:10] tomreyn: reinstalling will add everything /boot needs? [00:11] apowl: reinstall grub, too. i would hope that's all then [00:11] oh also update-initramfs -k all [00:12] although i guess this may happen automatically [00:12] Well guys I must say as being an unwanted client and for 4 months trying to figure why switching and resetting equipment never worked.. I think I understand. Mind you all I knew about was ports [00:13] Now seeing IPv6 addresses as people come in here.. [00:13] Dizzyywoo: cool [00:14] Dizzyywoo: for issues with this irc network better ask in #freenode . this channel is for ubuntu support [00:16] So I've been server stacked from smart tv to direct tv and blinded to script schema WebKit 1.0 hamlet 1.1 with built proxies around the entire area. Link local IPv6 push/multicast with .vbs script stored in the cloud? [00:16] Binded* [00:16] Html* [00:16] Dizzyywoo: do you have an ubuntu support issue? [00:21] Hello [00:22] Whats the difference between Linux and unix? [00:22] AndroUser, have you seen the wikipedia page for that? it's not topical here [00:23] No [00:23] AndroUser, then go have a look [00:23] What is topical here? [00:23] How can I capture a button press to see what code it is bringing up? [00:23] ubuntu support only AndroUser [00:23] AndroUser: technical support issues [00:23] AndroUser: ubuntu support [00:23] Pntscan [00:23] murrdawg: xev [00:23] murrdawg: ' xev ' will do that for you . [00:24] Thanks! [00:24] Interesting.... so it's not acknowledging the hardware buttons on the Thinkpad X41 display [00:27] So does this mean I have to install some kind of driver? [00:28] murrdawg: i suggest to take a look into the "thinkwiki" for the x41 [00:28] k1l I have been, and not seeing much to help me in my predicament [00:28] \ [00:32] Forgive my dumb question, I have not been on IRC in a long time. How do I get to the mint linux channel? Thank you [00:32] murrdawg: this? http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Tablet_Hardware_Buttons [00:32] !mint | AssociateX [00:32] AssociateX: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [00:32] thank you. [00:33] AssociateX: they use another irc network. [00:33] k1l yes, which is where I got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24167865/ [00:33] This is the scancode for the toolbox: 0x68 [00:34] http://wfseta.com/vgjbtpsi2 [00:34] and it should correspond to pause [00:34] but when I hit the button, it doesn't do anything [00:34] guest-H8WvaA, don't spam here, thanks [00:35] didnot no what it was [00:35] yes you do [00:35] @k1l [00:35] thank you [00:38] jackedu [00:43] k1l anything further? [00:46] definitely confirmed even with bindkeys that the buttons aren't recognized [00:47] does anyone know how to compile a c++ program on Ubuntu? I am having trouble using the package isostream [00:49] Here is my problem. I get the error "end1 is not a member of std" when trying to write a simple hello world program [00:53] figured it out. Apparently 1's and l's look a lot a like [00:53] quit [00:53] \quit [00:53] :quit [00:55] Does it matter what filesystem I make boot? What's the deafult, ext4? [00:55] yep [01:00] Any humans online? [01:01] maybe [01:01] poofromspace, yes [01:02] Can anybody install Deepin environment and tell me how it is on Ubuntu? [01:02] !find deepin [01:02] File deepin found in moka-icon-theme, ubuntu-kylin-software-center, ubuntukylin-theme, unity-greeter-badges [01:02] did you mean kylin? [01:03] poofromspace, what is the deepin DE [01:03] I meant the Deepin Desktop Environment. [01:03] I want someone to install it and see how it looks [01:03] poofromspace, yes, what is that [01:04] Or any bugs. Because it's probably the most beautiful desktop environment on Linux, better than Pantheon. [01:04] There is no official deepin support in repository for Ubuntu 16.04 [01:04] poofromspace, install from where [01:04] poofromspace: there is a ppa for 16.04 https://launchpad.net/~leaeasy/+archive/ubuntu/dde [01:05] http://askubuntu.com/questions/761107/how-to-install-deepin-desktop-environment-in-ubuntu-16-04-lts [01:05] Yeah. [01:05] poofromspace, there's a PPA, its not supported here [01:05] poofromspace, why dont you do it yourself? [01:06] I don't have a computer rn [01:06] hahaha.... [01:06] poofromspace, then look on the internet for screenshots [01:06] I didn't. I couldn't find anything besides the information on how to install it [01:06] I did* [01:07] poofromspace: look on the deepin website. they have screenshots [01:07] poofromspace, did you understand about 'not supported here' [01:07] Hi all. Having a really weird issue with MOCP (Music On Commandline Player). I start it, but it crashes immediately. I'm still pretty newb to ncurses and all, wondering how I can go about digging into the issue? When I run the debug command it just hangs [01:07] (Full disclosure: Running debian, but I trust the Ubuntu folks WAY more to have run into something like this, and IIRC it hit me on Ubuntu 12.04 too) [01:08] #debian econdudeawesome [01:08] Thanks for the pointer bazhang [01:08] As I said, I trust Ubuntu folks WAY more to have run into something like this, and IIRC it hit me on Ubuntu 12.04 too. [01:08] econdudeawesome, please keep debian issues to the proper channel [01:09] Thanks for the pointer bazhang [01:09] econdudeawesome, and stop asking here please [01:10] Bazhang not supported here what? [01:10] Alright, anyone besides Bazhang have any ideas? [01:10] poofromspace, deepin [01:11] econdudeawesome, on your debian system ? [01:12] deepin - too many bug warnings in chinese, i dont read chinese [01:13] Oh. [01:13] How about KDE? [01:13] poofromspace, what about it [01:14] I mean as a desktop environment how is it? [01:14] Buggy? [01:14] try it yourself. buy a computer [01:14] poofromspace: where is the sense in asking if you dont have a computer at all? [01:14] poofromspace, it's super; did you have an actual installed ubuntu system support issue [01:15] Dude I've been Ubuntu for like 4 years now. I know very well about all this. [01:15] poo-troll .. /ignore [01:15] poofromspace, you can readily find screenshots at distrowatch.com [01:15] I hear you OerHeks [01:15] The thing is I've had a lot of problems with Unity. [01:15] So I want to migrate to a different DE. [01:15] install gnome-shell the poofromspace [01:16] I tried Gnome.. Didn't liked it much. [01:16] poofromspace: we cant tell you what desktop is best for you. so you need to test some desktops and find the best match yourself [01:16] poofromspace, only YOU can know what it's like for you === guest-H8WvaA is now known as atowndown [01:16] I just want a DE which looks really gorgeous as in the UI doesn't eats up a lot of ram [01:16] poofromspace, so really, polling here will not be what you want [01:17] poofromspace, check distrowatch.com, look at screenshots for lxde xfce and so on [01:17] How about recommendations? [01:17] I did. [01:17] I've seen all of them. I just want a personal opinion [01:17] poofromspace, not from this channel, no [01:18] poofromspace, this is ubuntu support, not a polling station for 'best DE' [01:18] poofromspace: #ubuntu-offtopic is a more suiteable channel to talk to people about their favorite desktop in use [01:19] What was it's name again? Ubuntu off? [01:20] !ot | poofromspace [01:20] poofromspace: #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! [01:20] does anyone know what the issue is with nvidia drivers snaps and libGL, I am getting the failed to load swrast error [01:20] Okay thanks. [01:20] and more imortantly how can I fix it [01:21] jjgalvez6500, nvidia drivers snaps ?? [01:21] never noticed nvidia driver as snap [01:21] nvidia drivers and snaps, specifically I am having issues with the qownnotes snap [01:22] not nvidia snaps, but nvidia drivers and snaps [01:23] hello how do i remove old kernels using terminal? [01:23] jjgalvez6500, #snappy tried there yet [01:23] hey bazhang [01:24] robbieusa, list them then apt remove them [01:24] bazhang: not yet I'll ask their [01:24] how? [01:24] robbieusa, best to leave and extra one [01:24] an [01:25] robbieusa, why the command line [01:25] robbieusa, sudo apt autoremove # this will delete all except current and previous kernel [01:25] doesnt work oerheks [01:26] robbieusa, oh? what error do you get? use paste.ubuntu.com for the output [01:26] cant [01:26] when i recieve an update can update says lack of disk space (error) [01:26] cant* [01:27] so you did not try my command? [01:27] yes last time i was here [01:27] robbieusa, did you enter the command correctly [01:27] then i recieved an update with error again === guest-H8WvaA is now known as atl [01:28] i have 14.04lts [01:28] oh, mayb apt-get, >> sudo apt-get autoremove [01:28] k [01:28] robbieusa, sounds like you did not enter the command correctly [01:29] apt-get changed in between [01:29] it removed nothing [01:30] no space on the drive .. maybe it is closed dirty, now mounted read-only ? [01:31] try 'touch test' # and see if you get a write error [01:32] idk [01:32] im trying to do https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2240697 i think [01:34] if you perform the touch test action, we can determin what is really happening. [01:35] does anyone use stream2chromecast? [01:35] it does not work for me, i know it's not ubuntu-related...but it'slinux related [01:35] :) [01:36] sh0t, chromecast, the google hardware thing? [01:36] yeah that thing there [01:36] haha [01:37] trying to stream to my tv but it does not work from my compter but from my android phone yes [01:37] im doing its updating right now in terminal https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2240697 [01:37] sh0t, the instructions are online for that, all over the place [01:37] Howdy all, it's me again, the erstwhile debian'r. Despite @bazhang's protests to the contrary, the mocp issue could affect both ubuntu and debian distributions. So, for the chat logs, the workaround is to move the ~/moc folder to something like ~/.moc.save, then rerun mocp. It worked for me, may for you. Good luck. [01:52] hello everyone :) === jake| is now known as Conley [01:54] does anyone know how to fix the vidia GL issue with snaps? [01:54] ? [01:54] jjgalvez6500: maybe the guys in #snappy know better [01:55] k1l: tried their, no replies [01:56] sorry just started Ubuntu yesterday :( [01:56] i would help if i knew my stuff :( [01:56] crimzicz, have you read and gotten the ubuntu manual and pdf [01:56] no [01:57] crimzicz, what about the ubuntu wiki and ubuntu help links [01:57] no... [01:57] -_- [01:57] !manual | crimzicz [01:57] crimzicz: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ [01:57] thanks :) [01:57] !rute | crimzicz and this too [01:57] crimzicz and this too: documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - https://www.andrew.cmu.edu/course/95-799/rute.pdf [01:57] crimzicz, have a read of those, that will help a lot [01:57] thank you :) [01:58] crimzicz, there are also ubuntuforums and askubuntu.com [01:59] im familiar with Linux just not Ubuntu all that much [01:59] used Linux Mint in the past [02:00] i use Ubuntu 16.10 though... http://ubuntu-manual.org/ only has Ubuntu 16.04 :( [02:01] crimzicz, the same applies [02:01] ok [02:01] thanks bazhang :) [02:15] Haaii === the_ant1 is now known as the_ant [02:25] Is there a guide for optimizing my ubuntu setup for games? My frame rates are not as good as my hardware would suggest I should be able to reach. [02:29] hey all, I have a .desktop application that runs a bash script, but I can't seem to keep things running in the background despite the usual & or disown commands. (the bash script is a little menu that asks the user what they want to do, which launches a code editor, a browser, etc but when the .desktop app ends, it kills the editor/browser) [02:33] I've tried `nohup google-chrome foo.html &` I've tried `google-chrome foo.html& ; disown` I've tried `google-chrome foo.html & ; disown -h %1` ... nothing helps, as soon as the launcher app closes in its terminal window, it kills off the browser etc [02:41] hi all [02:42] may i ask you somethings how to install msfconsole on backbox [02:42] backbox isn't supported here, their channel is #backbox on irc.autistici.org [02:43] thank you ben64 [02:43] hi guys, this might not be the right place, but here I go. Does anyone have configured dropbox to use the actual same dropbox folder from Windows and ubuntu? Not only that, but also having that dropbox folder only sync selectively (as opposed to the entire dropbox folder as it is on the cloud)? [02:43] online informaion seems outdated and doesn't address the selective sync issue... especially for the first synchronization === IdleOne- is now known as IdleOne [02:45] dckx like in a dual-boot system where you're accessing the same folder on disk (assuming vfat mounted on linux, not ext4 mounted on windows?) [02:45] iandouglas_: exactly [02:46] dckx, I've tried it in the past, but the files I was writing weren't syncing well, I ended up with lots of "conflicted copy" copies of my files, depends what you're syncing and how often, etc. [02:46] not sure if it was a problem with dropbox or that what I was writing was changing faster than dropbox could upload [02:48] iandouglas_: that's too bad. If one only installs dropbox on windows, for instance, and then creates/updates file while on ubuntu, the files would of course upload just fine when one booted back into Windows, right? [02:50] dckx, yes. I did have dropbox running on Nautilus just fine, but trying to sync high-frequency written files was problematic for me, but it's certainly possible [02:50] can i create dir1/dir3/dir3/dir4 with just one command [02:50] dckx, are you asking because it's something you want to try, or because you're trying it now and something's not working? [02:51] dar123, mkdir -p dir1/dir2/dir3/etc [02:51] great, thanks :) [02:52] anyone here familiar with creating .desktop files to add apps to the launcher? i'm having a problem doing so with a bash script to run other programs in the background [02:54] iandouglas_: because it is something I want to try. In any case now that I think about it, it seems there is no real reason for me to have dropox on ubuntu, as long as the files I add or modify inside the dropbox folder while being in ubuntu, are updated correctly when I boot back into windows. [02:55] is there someone that could assist me with getting my bluetooth adapter work? total noob to linux [02:55] dckx, true, but it'd still be convenient to have ubuntu upload them too [02:55] well almost total noob anyways [02:55] kiarday, what kind of bluetooth adapter is it [02:56] how can i find that out iandouglas [02:56] kiarday, try one of these: lspci | grep -i blue or lsusb | grep -i blue [02:57] you'll probably see something like Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0cf3:3004 Atheros Communications, Inc. AR3012 Bluetooth 4.0 [02:57] Can anyone recommend a package which has neural net software? [02:59] iandouglas_: yes, that's true. I guess I will try and see what happens... My original fear was that since when I am syncing selectively on this laptop, when I installed dropbox in ubuntu and selected the existing dropbox folder from windows, it would for some reason delete all the files, and then re-download them before I could tell ubuntu's dropbox to only sync the selected folders which window's dropbox has already downloaded... that [02:59] seems completely non-sensical now. Thanks for your help [02:59] dckx, happy to help, good luck [02:59] ty [03:00] iandouglas jadra@Jadra ~ $ lsmod |grep blue bluetooth 479232 8 bnep,rfcomm [03:01] kiarday, that doesn't tell us what your bluetooth adapter is, use the lspci or lsusb commands to get the actual make/model, like an Intel, Broadcom, Atheros, etc [03:02] kiarday, that just shows us that your system is trying to load a bluetooth module (driver) [03:02] when i do the lspci it just acts as if i hit enter it doesn't do anything [03:02] weird, can you do "sudo lspci" ? [03:03] it should give you a bunch of output of everything in your system [03:03] oh, if you're using grep and see no output, then nothing directly identifies as bluetooth hardware [03:03] try it without the grep, and just do "lspci" or "lsusb" and see if anything there looks like it mentions bluetooth [03:04] are you sure your system even has bluetooth? [03:04] if i do it without grep nothing says bluetooth at all [03:04] yes I am sure there is bluetooth on the system [03:04] i have a light and and a switch to turn it on and off but it doesn't do anything [03:05] okay, try "lsusb -v | grep -i bluetooth" [03:05] acer travelmate5730 [03:05] couldn't open device some information will be missing [03:06] http://www.linlap.com/acer_travelmate_5730 says your laptop's model might not be tested yet for bluetooth compatibility [03:06] you could do "dmesg | less" and in the output type "/bluetooth" and see if it shows any errors, etc [03:07] anyone here familiar with creating .desktop files to add apps to the launcher? i'm having a problem doing so with a bash script to run other programs in the background. [03:08] iandouglas_: I installed dropbox but when I try to change the dropbox folder's location I cannot select the partition where it is installed. [03:08] so does that mean it will be pretty difficult to get working ? [03:09] dckx, do you have your shared partition mounted somewhere? you could try exiting dropbox on linux and manually changing the path in the config? [03:09] kiarday, depends on the actual hardware [03:10] kiarday, what I'm seeing online is that it's a broadcom device, not hard, but broadcom doesn't open-source their drivers [03:10] kiarday, there will be lots of guides out there for getting the broadcom firmware loaded onto your system and loaded at boot-time though [03:10] I've had several systems with broadcom wireless and bluetooth, it's not too hard to do [03:11] even for a sorta-noob :) [03:11] ok so where do i start ? lol [03:11] dckx, the only danger with mod'ing your config is making sure the partition is mounted before dropbox starts... [03:11] kiarday, I'd start with google ;) [03:12] kiarday, let me see if I can pinpoint the model of broadcom [03:12] kiarday, actually you can do that for me with "lspci | grep -i broadcom" or "lsusb | grep -i broadcom" [03:12] my systems have broadcom bluetooth listed under lsusb [03:14] lsusb doesn't return anything with broadcom listed [03:15] what about lspci [03:15] nope just doublechecked [03:15] your laptop's an older model, like 2010 era, so this should be well solved [03:15] hmm, are you sure it's on right now? I wonder if it hides the hardware from the listing if you turn it on/off [03:16] one thing to try: run dmesg, hit your switch to turn it on or off, then run dmesg again and look at the last several lines to see if it says anything [03:16] also try the lsusb/lspci commands but grep for "bcm" [03:16] check lsmod for "bcm" as well [03:17] Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized [ 664.625124] Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized [ 664.625127] Bluetooth: L2CAP socket layer initialized [ 664.625134] Bluetooth: SCO socket layer initialized [ 723.501744] Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized [ 723.501753] Bluetooth: RFCOMM socket layer initialized [ 723.501759] Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.11 [ 1099.247584] Bluetooth: BNEP (Ethernet Emulation) ver 1.3 [03:17] okay, looks like it's on now [03:18] try lsusb/lspci again [03:19] Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5764M Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 10) [03:19] well, that's your ethernet port [03:19] nothing for bluetooth huh? [03:19] nope [03:21] lspci -vv | grep -i bluetooth or lsusb -vv | grep -i bluetooth [03:22] nada [03:23] k, run "dmesg| less" again, search for bluetooth again with /bluetooth and maybe paste 10-20 lines before/after ... use paste.ubuntu.com and give the URL here [03:23] iandouglas_: the partition seems to be mounted. It shows on the launcher, and when I right click on it it says "unmount"... does that mean it is mounted? [03:25] dckx, sounds like it [03:25] kiarday, while you're pasting stuff there, paste the output of 'lspci' and 'lsusb' without any -v verbose settings [03:26] anyone here familiar with creating .desktop files to add apps to the launcher? i'm having a problem doing so with a bash script to run other programs in the background. [03:29] i guess i can't figure out what you me to run with that last dmesg command [03:30] kiarday and you're sure you have bluetooth? a hardware profile I saw online at http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/shishimaru/AcerTravelMate5730 doesn't list any bluetooth hardware [03:31] ah, looks like your bluetooth is an intel 5100 [03:31] im not 100 percent positive, but if it doesn't have it, what would the switch be there for ? and the light ? [03:32] oops, I misspoke about the intel 5100 [03:32] how about the biometric scanner ? anyway to make that work ? [03:32] switch could be for wifi [03:32] no i have a seperate switch for wifi and bluetooth [03:33] a separate switch for each? [03:33] yes [03:34] this is a pretty feature rich laptop so id be highly surprised if it didn't have bluetooth all evidence says otherwise === donttrustem_ is now known as donttrustem [03:43] sorry, house slood, gotta go, be back later [03:48] hi guys, has anybody here heard of or used Linux Lite?

[04:17] did you update/upgrade before installing? [04:18] i did.

Does that sound right? [04:40] sataII max is 6 Gb/s, msata uses 2 pcie lanes ( 2x3 Gb/s) , m2 uses 4, and these are raw numbers [04:41] so technically they are equal, i guess [04:56] anyone here familiar with creating .desktop files to add apps to the launcher? i'm having a problem doing so with a bash script to run other programs in the background.

So I just installed Linux Mint PPC 11 on this Apple Powerbook G4. Everything is working fine except for sound. So in my search for answers, I came across the following: "Basically they say to remove /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local.conf and it should work after a reboot. Also, remove "snd-powermac" from /e [06:53] Everybodydothefl, this is ubuntu support only. [06:53] !mint [06:53] Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [06:53] mint has its own iddues indeed [06:53] So what I need help with for example, is how exactly do I go about removing /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local.conf? Is there a way to get the needed root admin rights to do it through the GUI file system, or do I need to do it in terminal & if so, what are the commands I would type [06:53] ... iddues ... hmmmm? [06:53] *Facepalms* [06:54] Everybodydothefl: linuxmint has their own irc chat channel on spotchat network [06:54] Again, I am aware of that, but as I already said, This is an active IRC chat, while that one is not, & again, as I said, since this is more of a general linux matter I am asking for assistance on, I figured that I could get some help on it [06:55] Everybodydothefl, and yet, this channel still only supports ubuntu. if you need more support than your OS offers, perhaps you should reconsider your OS choice?? [06:55] Everybodydothefl: go there now for help.....you've been told you and your problem aren't wanted here....i hope it kicks in and you understand that at this time [06:58] Ok ao let me see if I am understanding this correctly. So your answer is, even though this is a general linux question that applies equally as much to Ubuntu as it does Mint, instead of actually being helpful, you would rather be elitist cunts whom refuse to give the time of day unless it's about Ubuntu specifically? Right. Way to represent the linux community fellas [06:59] your attitude and your profanity have no place here. leave please [07:00] cfhowlett Your objection to my use of profanity is understandable, however your criticism of my attitude is not. I came here requestiong assistance & the response I got from you lot, including you personally was essentially "If it's not Ubuntu specifically GTFO" [07:00] asked and answered. we're done here. [07:01] So tell me how you can stand in criticism of my attitude when I was first greeted with rudeness? [07:01] you were greeted with facts. [07:01] It is a general Linux question. Are you telling me that those are not welcome here? [07:01] !topic | Everybodydothefl [07:01] Everybodydothefl: Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic [07:02] Isn't the purpose of this chat to act as a help community for Linux users? [07:04] ##linux has many users. And hopefuly more welcoming. [07:04] In fact, let me position the question another way. Did it ever once dawn on you that if you & the 1 or 2 others that responded, that maybe had I not been treated rudely from the outset, maybe my response wouldn't have been rude as well? [07:05] use rm /path/to/file [07:06] Everybodydothefl: there are cases where something works fine in ubuntu and it doesn't work in mint because mint does something wrong. To an ubuntu user or developer, pinpointing a mint bug is completely wasted time. And since we can't know beforehand if it's a mint problem or not, we just don't support mint (or any other unofficial derivative) at all [07:06] Users at #linux might care about many distros; ask there [07:08] @alkisg I can understand that & respect that. I have heard what you said, now please afford me the same courtesy. I have tried the linux mint room & it's nothing but lurkers whom never talk at all. Secondly, the question I had was more of a general universal question which would apply the same to most distros, specifically how to go about removing blacklisted items from the file system [07:09] Everybodydothefl: then you can install an ubuntu VM, and come with your question, and test our answers on that VM. Then, with that gained knowledge, you can see if it works the same way in mint or not, and we won't care about that second part. [07:10] @alkisg, so just to clarify, am I to presume that the procedure for say... to remove /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local.conf, are you inferring that the process for doing this would be different in Mint than it is in Ubuntu? [07:11] For example, mint writes whatever it wants in /etc without respect for debian policy, so yes, there are many cases where things don't work as expectd there [07:13] @alkisg Ok, that makes sense. So with that information, I'll look in other rooms. Thanks for having the decency to clarify that for me. @cfhowlett & @tatertots, you could learn a thing or 2 from this guy. [07:13] Everybodydothefl: explaining that to each mint user does take time that we don't want to invest. I just happened to have time now to make an exception for you. [07:13] He said essentially the same thing, but actually had the common decency to be respectful & clear about it instead of obtuse elitist jerks like the 2 of you [07:14] To be honest, I didn't see any swearing from these guys, but I saw from you [07:14] It didn't feel good to come here to help people and see all that. [07:14] Anyway, from now on it's offtopic, let's pause now. [07:16] @alkisg Understandable, & hey I work in tech support, so I get it. Maybe a copy / pasta script that's a bit clearer might help for those times. My perspective is I was thinking it would be more of a "How do you update the system? Sudo apt-get update" type of universal thing that is the same for all Debian & Ubuntu forks [07:16] That's why when I was met with such abrupt seeming obtuseness, I was put off, because I thought it would be more of a universal thing. Anyway thanks for the clarity [07:17] For example, apt-get update doesn't work properly in mint :) [07:17] aint that the truth XD [07:17] We can't have !info functions for every bit that is broken in every derivative distro [07:17] We're offtopic now, let's stop [07:18] Honestly I tried getting Ubuntu MATE PPC & Lubuntu to install on this old heap but mint PPC & Gentoo are the only ones that would work & Gentoo is too much of a pain in the neck to be worth it on an old powerbook [07:18] ok deuces [07:18] You can come here or in #ubuntu-mate for mate issues [07:19] Ok hang on, I did come in here 2 days ago for the MATE issue & was also shooed off [07:19] So my questions then were valid regarding MATE? [07:19] Sure, ubuntu-mate is an official flavor [07:19] Because I would MUCH rather run that [07:19] Do so then :) [07:19] I am [07:21] Ugh, that makes me rather frustrated then because when I was actually trying to install MATE, I was told that this wasn't the place for those questions. It would have saved me hours of headache if I could have actually gotten help back then [07:21] Well the issue I was running into was when I would try to install MATE from a USB, once I got past Yaboot & it would start to load the USB live image, the display on this poiwerbook would just cut off [07:22] I don't know about macs/powerbooks etc, you'll have to wait for someone else [07:22] ok [07:22] yeah because if I can get mate PPC to run on this heap, that would be fantastic [07:22] Everybodydothefl: you referenced linux mint and elitist cunts which never goes well [07:22] Or at least Lubuntu PPC [07:23] XD I know, Mint is kind of the red headed step child [07:24] & as for those 2 that I called as such, whether the language was called for or not, that is how they came across. It may not have been intentional, but that is how it came off. [07:25] hello [07:25] anddam, greetings. ask your ubuntu question [07:25] im back [07:25] I'm looking at the org.gnome.desktop.interface document-font-name property with and without Universal Access > Large Text setting enabled [07:25] well for now I' [07:25] I see the font is in both cases Ubuntu Mono 13, where's the large text option reflected? how can I know how big it is? [07:26] I'll see if any of the lurkers in the mint room have learned how to type responses yet. Wish me luck [07:26] lol [07:29] the 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into/target/. Without the GRUB boot loader,the installed system will not boot. [07:30] Hey guys, I've been trying to fix an issue with my front panel sound for a while now. I'm currently running 16.04, and there is no sound output from the front panel. I've gone through the solutions I could find online, which involved unmuting my headphones in alsamixer, but they're not muted and I'm still not getting any sound out. The input jack works fine. Do you guys know of any other solutions? [07:31] Sc1F1: EXPLAIN [07:32] ericwithgirl friend [07:34] can't remember how run command on X display wasn't it something like export DISPLAY 0:0 firefox or something like that, thanx any help [07:34] from a ssh external tty [07:37] radfactz: The only solutions I've been able to find online have been to either install gnome-alsamixer, or to just run alsamixer in terminal. Apparently a lot of people had experienced the front panel audio being muted by default. Whenever I run alsamixer, neither "Headphone" or "Front" is muted, and this being the only solution I could find, I'm a bit lost at what to try next. [07:38] i use pulseaudio mixer pavucontrol to control my outputs inputs, also be sure to have your bios enabled the fron panel [07:38] Sc1F1: do you mean audio out jack on front of pc [07:39] radfactz: Yes I do [07:40] the 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into/target/.

[07:48] Sc1F1: not really option. Just select it. And close the app [07:48] radfactz: Still no output [07:49] Sc1F1: whats your distro/version? [07:49] radfactz: There is about half a second when I first plug it in that audio will play, but then it goes away [07:49] Sc1F1: what music player are you using [07:49] radfactz: Ubuntu 16.04 [07:49] Sc1F1: some music players select their own audio output [07:50] radfactz: I've just been trying with youtube to troubleshoot, but neither Rhythmbox or any other program I've tried work either. [07:51] Sc1F1: try installing pavucontrol and using that to control the output devices and you can select the output for each stream and see if that works [07:54] B105PH3RE: Whenever I run pavucontrol and select Headphones, the bar moves back and forth as if sound was playing, but there is no audio. [07:54] front panel or rear panel [07:55] what do you have under configuration tab? [07:56] Sc1F1: are you using headphones or speakers [07:56] Front panel, rear panel works just fine.

I don't understand how to interpret what python would do [10:38] Eric______: next to status at the top move the border so it says fully what's under it, i think it should say "Healthy (Extended partition)" [10:38] without trying it, it's worth guessing [10:38] or maybe there is a simple rule to follow? [10:39] lesshaste: wrong channel? [10:39] argh [10:39] sorry [10:40] 2mb move into black ?

[11:01] atralheaven: right. see what the uuid of cryptswap1 is, delete everything else. [11:01] ducasse: actually I didn't know about crypttab at all. what should I do now? deleting the first line and keep one of those lines?

[11:21] Fla_2016, have you tryed tools like padevchooser? [11:21] Ikevin: nope.. [11:22] atralheaven: they sure can. ok, comment your swap line out of fstab, then reboot to restart the entire crypt subsystem. if you don't comment it out, you might get problems booting again :-/ [11:22] Ikevin: is't a ppa? [11:22] Fla_2016, nop [11:22] Ikevin: it's a ppa? [11:22] ok [11:23] Eric i restart then f2 right? [11:25] Fla_2016, oh sorry, it look like padevchooser is no longer availlable in ubuntu :x [11:26] ducasse: sorry commenting out mean putting # or removing it? [11:26] atralheaven: i think you have to have /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 in /etc/fstab instead of the uuid [11:26] atralheaven: # at beginning of swap line [11:27] Hi. Is the Ubuntu Precise 12.04 EOL at the END of April or on April 1st?

[11:29] ducasse: I think that should be right, yes? https://hastebin.com/raw/vabadoxunu , it did it automatically [11:29] EriC^^: he has that, but needs to reboot [11:29] EriC^^: idk, is it safe to reboot and see? [11:29] atralheaven: yes it is [11:29] atralheaven: no [11:29] ok so lets see what happens! [11:30] atralheaven: wait, please [11:30] the only scary part is in /etc/crypttab but you're using uuid there so no worries [11:30] ducasse: ok [11:30] atralheaven: comment out the last line as well. if something is wrong and systemd can't find it, it will halt boot. [11:30] Looking for the best distro for an elderly person to work with. Best ideas I could come up with. Lately, I have been looking into Lubuntu. Anyone have any input? Thanks! [11:31] ducasse: you mean the "/dev/mapper/cryptswap1 none swap sw 0 0" line? [11:32] atralheaven: yep. comment at beginning of line, save, then reboot. [11:32] atralheaven: before you reboot [11:32] lucia_: I think Lubuntu isn't as complete as, for example, Xubuntu. [11:32] can you please run "(cat /etc/crypttab; sudo blkid) | nc termbin.com 9999" ? [11:33] lucia_: lubuntu is for elderly computers, not elderly people [11:34] EriC^^: sure, here is the results: http://termbin.com/xnv4 [11:35] I am currently running Ubuntu 14.04 as my distro and have not looked into Xubuntu. I'll have to download the live version and give it a try. Thanks! [11:35] atralheaven: that looks good still [11:36] +1 === degville_ is now known as degville [11:37] so should I comment out the "/dev/mapper/cryptswap1 none swap sw 0 0" line before rebooting now? [11:37] atralheaven: there is an open bug on this, so i would still comment that line out to be safe. we'll fix that after reboot. [11:37] ducasse: ok [11:38] can someone help me? i used the command marco --replace and now i dont know how to get unity back [11:38] brb! [11:39] u_u, unity --replace is not working?

[11:42] atralheaven: brilliant :) now you just remove the comment sign for the /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 line in fstab and everything's good. no need to reboot again. [11:43] .eric? [11:44] ducasse: is that normal that the swap partition in gparted is not on? I mean I have the swapon option, is that normal? [11:44] u_u: I'm guessing you tried rebooting.. [11:44] atralheaven: gparted says it's not in use? does 'free -m' report swap? [11:45] ducasse: free -m: "Swap: 3318 0 3318" [11:46] it shows swap, so I think its ok? [11:46] if you have this setup on your system now, may you check and see how is it for you? [11:46] atralheaven: good. i guess gparted doesn't see it because you're using the crypto device, not the raw block device. [11:46] Eric im on f2 screen [11:47] atralheaven: hang on, i'll check. [11:48] atralheaven: same thing here. [11:50] Eric? [11:50] ducasse: good :) so everything is fine! thank you! [11:50] EriC^^: thank you too!

It shows the two partitions of the USB [12:04] Im outside smoke wait [12:05] well, if you just want an image, `dd if=/dev/sdb of=disk.img bs=4M status=progress` is a good start [12:05] or `pv /dev/sdb > disk.img` [12:05] JakeukalaneWeb: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 and paste the link it gives you here [12:05] I installed Ubuntu MATE and it worked without problems. Then I connected my headphones and selected them in sound settings. I had sound but couldn't make it lower. Then I installed Budgie and I have no sound even when selecting headphones and couldn't switch keyboard layout in Budgie. [12:05] OK. I will do in a time. I realized I cannot do right now [12:06] Eightynine, sometimes you have to turn the other hardware in sound settings to "off" [12:08] Anyway I am really happy that there is people here helping. I will connect here from now on a lot. Thank you everybody [12:08] I selected soundcard instead of monitor but there's empty space in sound settings where you can select profile.

[12:35] CrazyTux Is Penis [12:35] Wirehunter: that looks like a huge package [12:36] kontol [12:36] leeyaa: try installing linux-image-extra-virtual-lts-xenial [12:36] 350MB [12:36] leeyaa, It's a port of linux 4.8 from ubuntu 16.10 [12:36] I need just reiserfs [12:36] hello [12:36] http://m.imgur.com/NjbH6Sm [12:37] I cant believe it is that difficult rofl [12:38] leeyaa: check the package i mentioned, it should have the modules you're missing [12:38] ducasse: don't have it [12:39] Eric______: reboot the pc, try pressing on the F12 key while it's about to boot [12:39] sorry I mean I do have it but it is huge [12:39] im not installing 350MB just for reiserfs [12:39] You can remove your older kernel image afterwards [12:39] 350M is huge? [12:40] Wirehunter: swapping the kernel for something so simple is out of the question for me [12:40] this isn't 1980 [12:40] scottjl: im a minimalist [12:40] Text screen is black n white [12:40] then you get minimal functionality [12:40] why install something so big if you are going to need like 1% of it === KindTwo is now known as KindOne [12:40] and yet you're using ubuntu [12:40] this used to work 14.04 and earlier [12:40] grawity: the server image is pretty good [12:40] if you want minimal you should be installing debian, or building gentoo [12:41] Eric______: which acer is this? [12:41] but to install a 300+MB package for Reiser ... [12:41] and to swap kernel for it like wtf [12:41] are you sure thats the only way ? [12:42] cause I can install it somewhere else and copy that module [12:42] but still it sounds stupid [12:42] Do i hold esc and f12 same time? [12:43] Eric______: no [12:43] Eric______: which acer model is it? [12:43] Eric______: seriously, you are trolling, right? [12:43] is reiserfs support officially removed ? cause it is, ill just ditch it [12:43] afaik Debian removed it, but I might be wrong [12:44] leeyaa: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=717517 [12:44] Debian bug 717517 in ftp.debian.org "RM: partman-reiserfs -- ROM; now useless" [Normal,Open] [12:44] I guess it is removed indeed, that explains [12:45] ok thanks, ill just convert that crap to ext4 [12:45] leeyaa: reiserfs was meant as a replacement for ext2. time has moved on since then [12:45] Acer E1-532-2657 [12:45] k1l_: yeah ik. it was great for workflow with many small files at that time. but this was like 8y ago [12:45] most distros that used reiserfs moved to ext3 when that was stable. [12:46] this is part of my daily struggles with ubuntu hardy and dapper ;p [12:46] Eric______: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KycrBtjuJHc [12:46] k1l_: it's there in 16.10 and 17.04, though? [12:46] ducasse: you probably have some extra package enabled [12:47] ducasse: the module? or the package? [12:47] Yes, it's in the hwe kernel :P [12:47] on xenial [12:47] the module [12:47] Im dumb eric [12:48] Wirehunter: I still don't know if even if I install it it will mount that volume, the volume is from ubuntu dapper [12:48] I forgot to enble f12 in bios settingz [12:48] leeyaa, why wouldn't it? It's still reiserfs, right? [12:48] Eric______: any luck with it now? [12:48] so ill just convert it, I wont even say to my team there is a kernel option [12:49] Wirehunter: you never know until you actually do it [12:49] is hwe kernel considered for its servers now ? [12:49] What i do next reboot pc then press f12 right? [12:51] Eric______: yeah [12:51] Eric i forgot to enabled the f12 im dumb lol [12:54] http://m.imgur.com/II8JByB === semeion is now known as mnemonic [12:55] Eric______: try the first one USB hdd [12:57] http://m.imgur.com/JiA5lwp [12:58] Eric______: press enter [12:58] help [12:59] Its said try ubuntu without installing and install ubuntu [12:59] i installed projectsend on ubuntu, its working fine on the lost but while accessing on network it cannot open pages as its accessing them as localhost [13:00] quit# [13:00] Eric______: same black and white menu as before?

[13:20] Eric______: yeah let it install to it === longerstaff13 is now known as system323 [13:21] I go on windows 10 to redo it again [13:21] ok [13:23] Eric do i format the usb flash then install ubuntu iso again right?

[13:42] Eric______: seriously: how hard can it be? https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows [13:43] Ill do rufus [13:43] https://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ [13:43] I really like this tool, It's as easy as 1, 2, 3 [13:44] It even downloads the iso for you [13:45] Wirehunter: some of them have issues, since they change the ubuntu iso to make their own boot screen or boot menu, which can result in errors. rufus is known to work. [13:45] Which one i download rufus 2.12 or rufus 2.12 portable? [13:45] perhaps dump question: how can i install programs for users who are not in sudoers? [13:45] with apt-get [13:46] Eric______: the portable works without installation on windows [13:46] k1l_, I always use universal-usb-installer, never gave me any trouble, but I always chose an iso from my filesystem. [13:46] nscp: if you isntall the programs with apt every user can use them [13:46] k1l_: sorry just realised it's with pip [13:46] nscp: pip has some --user switch or such [13:47] I want dual [13:47] k1l_: ah, i didnt know that! ill look into it, thanks :) [13:47] I download rufus portable [13:47] Eric______: that is not related to making a ubuntu usb [13:47] nscp, non sudo users cannot install [13:49] Its downloading iso on rufus portable [13:50] cfhowlett: in that case, how can i install a program with pip for another user? [13:50] nscp, no idea what pip is, sorry. but the standard installation uses apt [13:51] nscp: users would use pip --user afaik [13:51] cfhowlett: no problem, thanks anyway :) pip is a tool for managing python packages as far as i know [13:52] nscp: ubuntu already ships a huge load of python pacakges in the repos [13:52] k1l_: im looking for the `aws-cli` package [13:54] Try awscli [13:57] I got ubuntu iso in usb flash that downloaded from rufus portable [13:57] What i do next? [13:59] Do i try ubuntu without installing or install ubuntu which one? [13:59] arny: thanks, ive misspelled it i see :) running `pip install --user awscli` did the trick. thanks everybody! [14:00] Eric______: are you wanting to install ubuntu or just try it? [14:01] Yup so i can have windows and ubuntu [14:01] Eric______: did you get the same black & white menu? [14:02] Eric______: then select install [14:02] Eric______: use the live ubuntu. from there you can run the isntall app but have internet too [14:03] It got me confused [14:03] Eric______: you need to answer the question from EriC^^ first, that's kind of important [14:04] Yup [14:04] Eric______: black & white? [14:05] Yup [14:05] Eric______: np, press on try ubuntu [14:05] hello, anyone know how to remove a program in ubuntu, it keeps comming back everytime i reboot [14:06] i'm trying something in a vm, if it works we'll go ahead with it Eric______ === Spontex is now known as Guest50187 [14:07] Rufus dont works [14:07] Funeral: what program and how did you install it? [14:07] f.lux indicator applet [14:07] dont remember how i did install it [14:08] it goes away when i remove it from the ubuntu software manager but comes back when i reboot [14:09] f.flux? that was not insatlled from the ubuntu repos [14:10] Rufus dont work [14:10] Funeral: "grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | nc termbin.com 9999" and show the output url here [14:10] So i do on poweriso [14:10] Eric______: so what happend? [14:10] Eric______: stop [14:10] Eric______: tell me what doesnt work? what exactly? stop making a mess all over again [14:10] It was dots loading still [14:11] Eric______: how long did you wait? [14:11] k1l_: http://termbin.com/zis0 [14:11] 2to 3 mins [14:11] Eric______: so you saw a purple screen with dots showing in the middle? [14:11] Yup [14:12] Eric______: the loading can take some time, depending on the hardware [14:13] Funeral: so you didnt use a PPA, how did you install it? [14:13] Eric______: rufus didn't work so you wrote the usb with poweriso like last time? [14:13] Yup it was worked [14:14] i think i used http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/03/install-f-lux-in-ubuntu-16-04/ [14:14] or http://askubuntu.com/questions/493507/flux-for-ubuntu-14-04-possible [14:14] i think i have two different flux [14:14] Funeral: did you run "sudo apt purge fluxgui"? [14:15] E: Unable to locate package fluxgui [14:15] Funeral: so you used the git install? [14:16] prob both >_< [14:16] the first one didnt work [14:16] now i use Redshift [14:16] Funeral: "sudo python setup.py install --record installed.txt" then run "sudo xargs rm -vr < installed.txt" [14:17] someone can help with file-roller cause it crash on every boot of the system?? [14:18] ython: can't open file 'setup.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory [14:18] I created a file /etc/systemd/system/hostapd.service so that hostapd runs as a service. But when I try systemctl status hostapd, it says no such file or directory. Please help https://paste.ubuntu.com/24170870/ [14:20] Eric______: booted yet? [14:20] It downloading iso on poweriso wait [14:21] Eric______, Again? [14:21] Eric______: the point of writing it with something else was that we suspect poweriso didn't do it correctly since you can only boot in uefi mode. [14:21] Eric______, An ISO image shouldn't change, so what's the point in downloading it again and again? [14:22] Eric______, Please try this one https://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ [14:22] You all see and wait if its work ill let you know [14:22] Funeral: "ls -al /tmp | nc termbin.com 9999" [14:22] Eric______: rufus has a dd write mode too. did you use it? [14:22] Can't get easier than that. [14:22] hi there channel which ubuntu for toshiba 2800.400 [14:23] Eric______: but if you install while booted in the wrong mode you will have the same problem you came in here with six hours ago. [14:23] dury: up to you. Most people will usually recommend the LTS version, which would be Ubuntu 16.04 LTS [14:24] k1l_: http://termbin.com/5mwf [14:24] dury: try the 16.04 first [14:24] rudus has a dd write mode? [14:24] rufus* [14:24] when did that become a thing? [14:24] Eric______: Alt-I (v1.4.7 or later) - Toggle ISO image support: By default, when an ISO image can be used as both a regular bootable ISO (Syslinux, WinPE, ...) or bootable flat disk image (DD), Rufus will choose the former method when copying the data. With this option, you can force DD image writing. [14:24] MediocreN: isn't Rufus a windows program? [14:24] nicomachus: yes it is [14:25] wrong place to ask, then [14:25] nicomachus: come on now [14:25] no i ask because akik just said it has one [14:25] nicomachus: it can be used to write a linux iso on a usb stick and install .. linux [14:25] nicomachus, k1l_, old laptop though toshiba 2800.400 [14:26] are you using a usb 3.0 to try and instal? [14:26] dury: i dont know what toschiba 2800.400 is [14:26] See everyone on picture im right with poweriso [14:27] dury: what's the hardware? Pentium, celeron, core2duo? [14:27] nicomachus, k1l_, http://www.toshiba.fr/discontinued-products/satellite-2800-400/ [14:27] http://m.imgur.com/wU5YKbd [14:27] nicomachus: all the satillites were celeron age i believe [14:27] someone can help with file-roller cause it crash on every boot of the system?? [14:27] pentium III I guess [14:27] dury: looks like pentium3? then i dont think that there is a ubuntu that will work [14:28] oh, i stand corrected [14:28] k1l_: 64MB memory is the real problem [14:28] ^ [14:29] Maybe Lubuntu? but I don't think so [14:29] nicomachus: i dont think pentium3 are supported at all. iirc pentium4 is the oldest supported cpu [14:29] you could use crunch bang [14:29] nicomachus: yes. Programmers got sloppy with memory [14:29] Eric______: open a terminal and enter 'ls /sys/firmware/efi'. if that returns a small list you are in uefi mode, and your install will not work. [14:29] puppylinux maybe [14:30] or Damn Small Linux could be too [14:30] dury: ##linux will know if there is a linux that still runs on that old and slow machine. [14:30] crunchbang will run on that beast [14:30] dury: DOS [14:30] i'd imagine damn small would also [14:31] Funeral: maybe run the git clone again and then afterwards run the uninstall instructions: https://github.com/xflux-gui/xflux-gui [14:31] sa [14:31] salut [14:32] hello [14:32] k1l_: oki, ill try [14:32] greetings [14:32] Eric______: don't do anything yet! [14:32] where are you at now? [14:33] MediocreN: DOS [14:33] Im on terminal [14:33] EriC^^: check mode first, though [14:34] Eric______: ^ [14:35] Eric______: just type the 'ls' command i gave you [14:35] hello [14:35] hi jakeukalane [14:36] I have a computer with Ubuntu 14.04.5 that don't have internet [14:36] before an update, it had internet [14:37] I don't know what happened, how I could set internet again [14:37] Is: command not found [14:37] Eric______: ls /sys/firmware/efi [14:38] small L not an I [14:38] jakeukalane, No internet? Does it have an ip? [14:38] the nm-applet don't connect [14:39] jakeukalane, wifi or ethernet? [14:39] ah, also the screen seem distorted. I think it started when I started ubuntu in fault mode [14:40] neither. it doesn't connect with the cable [14:40] jakeukalane, Are you familiar using a terminal? [14:40] yes [14:40] what interfaces can you see with ifconfig? [14:40] jakeukalane: can you choose an older kernel to boot in grub menu? does it work there? [14:41] ok, I will try. I will search how to show differnt kernels [14:42] jakeukalane: on grub menu, go to "advanced options" there it will list old installed kernels to boot [14:42] I will try, thanks [14:42] what key is the one to show the menu? [14:42] jakeukalane: hold shift [14:43] great, thanks [14:43] How to run terminal as adim? [14:43] Eric______: put sudo before a command [14:45] sudo is/sys/firmware/efi? [14:45] Eric______: no, just run "ls /sys/firmware/efi" [14:46] ok, the other kernel worked [14:47] Eric______: you're almost done, just run that command and tell us if it gives a bunch of dirs or what it says [14:47] how I set that that kernel always start with that kernel? [14:47] the grub* [14:47] jakeukalane: better look at what was broken on the new kernel to not have that issue again [14:48] how I see that? [14:48] jakeukalane: run "cat /var/log/syslog | nc termbin.com 9999" and show the output url here [14:48] It said config_table fw_platform_size runtime systab [14:48] Eric______: ok, in the same terminal, type "ubiquity -b" [14:49] ok, I will do [14:49] efivars fw_vendor runtime-map vars [14:49] Eric wait i go on webcat easy [14:51] im here eric [14:51] Eric: ok, open a terminal and type "ubiquity -b" [14:51] \o/ [14:52] this will open the installer without installing the bootloader, ducasse pointed it out, god bless him, lol xD [14:52] O_O [14:53] see it worked with PowerIso better [14:53] so we're not that far off from installing ubuntu now Eric______ after the installer finishes, we can manually install the bootloader in legacy mode and you should be good [14:53] ikeh [14:53] ikeh [14:53] ikimochi [14:53] TidakDiKetahui: this channel is for ubuntu support only. [14:53] wow [14:54] what is termbin.com? [14:54] Eric: in the installer choose to install as usual, press on the "Install ubuntu alongside windows" and let it install itself [14:54] sorry [14:54] it said welcome on screen [14:54] sry [14:54] jakeukalane: it will load the text to a pastebin an show you a url, show that url here so we can see the output [14:56] eric it said force uefi installition [14:56] Eric: say yes [14:56] contnue in uefi mode? [14:56] yes [14:57] I know this might be off topic but does anyone know the terminal command in encfs to decrpt I tried encfs encrypted folder decrypted folder and it asks for other variables [14:58] eric it said erase disk and install ubuntu [14:59] encryt the new ubuntu installation for security [14:59] I also want to delete a user, but it says that it doesn't exists [15:00] use livecd with the new ubuntu installation [15:00] something else [15:00] which one? [15:03] http://m.imgur.com/TWf1lG5 [15:04] Atomic20: what other variables [15:04] Eric______: press on "Something else" at the bottom [15:04] mount options [15:04] -v [15:05] --reverse crpt [15:05] that menu [15:05] Atomic20: paste it in paste.ubuntu.com [15:05] what's the command in encfs to decrypt [15:05] I really just need the command to decrypt [15:08] Atomic20: encfs /full/path/to/dir /full/path/to/empty/dir [15:09] Eric______: ?

[15:15] Hello [15:15] on memory ram? [15:15] Eric: yeah [15:15] whers system info? [15:16] hi guys, could someone help me out. my iotop show 24.60 for IOWAIT. im not sure what is the reason for it. I have 4 cores so i guess its 100% IOWAIT on a single core. [15:16] iostat* [15:16] I have found this document about which drivers are available in linux for working with Gobi3000 mobile-broadband cards [15:16] http://www.option.com/download/243_Gobi3000LinuxPackageGuidedoc.pdf [15:17] Eric: press on the settings icon that has a wrench and go to details [15:17] 大家有懂中文的吗 [15:18] 英文不太好,遇到问题想请教在的 Ubuntu-mate 16.04.01升级后到了16.04.02发现桌面壁纸和字体等没有办法设置 [15:18] !cn | wei__ [15:18] wei__: 如欲獲得中文的協助,請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [15:18] Excuse me, the main document is this one: http://www.lanedo.com/documents/Qualcomm%20Gobi%20devices%20on%20Linux.pdf [15:18] This is a better document [15:19] Memory 1.8 GiB [15:20] It seems that in my ubuntu bydefault it's using drivers "cdc-wdm" and "qmi_wwan" for managing my mobile-broadband card [15:22] eric? [15:22] There are 2 series of drivers for working with Gobi mobile-broadband devices: 1.Qualcomm's GobiNet/GobiSerial and 2. qmi_wwan in upstearm kernel [15:23] But the "qmi_wwan" driver doesn't work well in my ubuntu. Anyone has experience with it? [15:24] There are no ttyUSB devices as mobile-broadband modem to speak with, so I can't upload the firmware to the gobi-device [15:26] As described in http://www.lanedo.com/documents/Qualcomm%20Gobi%20devices%20on%20Linux.pdf under section 3.4.1, the device /dev/cdc-wdm1 is currently known and available in my ubuntu [15:27] k1l_, the paste is 1.2 Mb; I can't upload [15:27] jakeukalane: i gave you a command that will upload it and will show you a url [15:27] This shows that cdc-wdm driver is currently loaded to communicate with my mobile-broadband card [15:28] but I don't have internet on the computer when I execute the command [15:28] jakeukalane: you said it worked with the older kernel [15:28] yes, but I started again the new kernel to do the output [15:29] jakeukalane: its ok to run it from the old kernel [15:29] ah, ok [15:29] also, I want to remove a user, sudo deluser user should work right? [15:32] ok, I solved, I deleted the user :D [15:32] jakeukalane: yes, that will remove "user". use --remove-home if you want to get rid of the homfolder too [15:33] eric? [15:33] hide joins :) [15:34] can i decrease size of root partition for my swap? lastime i tried, it had a kind of warning that it might be corrupted? [15:34] so when i accidentally put remaining size for / partition, could it be tweaked? [15:34] i have 1TB disk size [15:35] i kinda worry if it would do some harm [15:35] kalby-imanie shouldn't be a problem [15:35] Only if the sectors have data in them, but they are probably empty :p [15:35] as long as you don't do drastic decrease [15:36] as long as i dont mess with /boot partition, things would work fine right? [15:36] kalby-imanie: changing things on partitions can always result in dataloss. so what do you want to do exactly? [15:36] data loss is fine, but not my OS to be corrupted [15:36] well, if system data gets "lost" the system is not fine anymore :) [15:36] :p [15:37] http://termbin.com/joyl [15:37] system related things are under / partition, right? [15:37] grub and whatnot [15:37] oh your swap is made huge :p [15:37] kalby-imanie: can you show a "sudo parted -l" in a pastebin and explain what you want to change? [15:38] Yeah i'm pretty sure you can change that without any problems [15:38] jakeukalane: what is the output of "uname -r" on the working kernel? [15:39] http://termbin.com/ju51, this is my VM partition [15:39] i would try at it first [15:39] but please explain [15:39] let say i want to reduce root size for swap [15:39] k1l_, 3.13.0-91 [15:40] would it be okay? [15:40] kalby-imanie for your swap it would not matter [15:41] kalby-imanie: yes, shrinking sda3 and increasing sda2 should be ok [15:41] but if you have 1TB disk, why are you worried about this? [15:42] i just want to know how it works [15:42] I think the solution should be to set that kernel to default [15:42] jakeukalane: no, that is not the solution [15:43] jakeukalane: because that way you miss kernel udpates which are there to fix security issues [15:43] Kalby-imanie :p, your better off reading docs and tutorials then [15:43] I think the new kernel is 118 [15:44] jakeukalane: does "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" want to install new updates? [15:44] 108, sorry [15:45] yes, a lot [15:45] 112, an xserver between them [15:45] jakeukalane: run them. maybe that issue is already fixed [15:45] ok, I will do === jackNemrod_ is now known as jackNemrod [15:46] hey guys, when I set MTU value to 1492 in my DSL connection via Edit Connections the value is not set - it's still 1500.

[16:21] sgen: sure, if they're the kind that auto-starts with the system [16:21] tracker and dropbox would be my first guesses [16:22] I dont have either of those installed [16:22] why at the end of a release upgrade it says removing 107 packages could take "several hours"? shouldnt removing packages be pretty quick? [16:22] sgen: run this in a root shell: grep inotify /proc/*/fdinfo/* [16:22] then what i do next?

[16:25] Eric______: it looks good, press Install now [16:25] nacc: Because Im using node watches and ive run out of inotify watches [16:26] sgen: just increase the maximum number of inotify watches? rather than potentially breaking software taht assumes it can use inotify?

[16:29] "useful"? it doesn't have to be a round number, you know [16:29] bit weird a choice but doesn't matter [16:30] grawity: 'useful' as in reference value [16:30] so what should I set it to? [16:30] grawity: yes, it doesn't need to be round, but it makes sense to be for most people to understand *why* you set it to something [16:31] join #drupal-google [16:31] sgen: ah on 16.04 the default appears to be 8192; so just set it to a high enough value that you don't hit the limit?

[16:49] eric^^? [16:50] It seems no matter what I try in a virtual machine of kubuntu, the clock never shows the correct time. Anyone know what I have to do? [16:50] onca: use NTP? [16:50] thanks I'll check that out [16:51] onca, maybe wrong timezone is set? [16:51] no. it's set to EST. [16:52] onca: when you say it doesn't show the correct time. Is it off by exactly some amount of hours? or is it off by minutes? Or something else? [16:52] because those are vastly different things [16:53] It is off by 4 hours [16:53] Yep, that sounds like a timezone thing. 4 hours in which direction? [16:53] onca, My rig is always off by 4 hours with a Manjaro dual boot. [16:54] Normally I just ignore it. [16:54] eric?

I was thinking 1:01 AM [17:00] it's a VM, so I think that makes things a little more difficult. What hypervisor are you using? [17:00] Eric, just be patient, you got support from EriC^^ for 8.5 hours now, he must eat & sleep i guess [17:01] Eric: also, he helped you get the installer started correctly. now you just install as you did before, you should be fine. [17:01] hey oerheks take a look at picture [17:01] Hi everyone! Something quite odd has been happening on my Ubuntu installation. After I got a notification saying that I was running out of space, I opened the Disk Usage Analyzer and found that the directory .Private contains many subdirectories starting with ECRYPTFS_FNEK_* and some are very large, one is taking up 4GB and the others also around 1GB. Does anyone have any idea how to fix that? [17:01] ducasse [17:02] http://m.imgur.com/3nVCjrC [17:03] pineappletoothbr: have you failed to type your encryption password correctly a few times? [17:03] i wonder why ubuntu repos doesn't contain the latest glibc release.. is there a reason for this? the version I have is 2.23 but is already available the 2.25 [17:03] pineappletoothbr: that's your encrypted home [17:03] !latest [17:03] Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. [17:03] ishufncv: --^ [17:04] nacc: ok, I see. but they do contain security patches.. [17:05] ishufncv also sometimes the people packaging the software are sometimes different from the developers on it, and again stability on ubuntu takes precedence over latest version. [17:05] tgm4883 I think it is. I wonder why there's so many of those folders [17:05] ishufncv: "they do contain"? what is "they" and the security team puts out updates as needed [17:05] ishufncv: security updates get backported [17:06] Some were last opened months ago though. I don't think I'll run into any problems if I delete those [17:06] Eric: still there? [17:06] ishufncv: ubuntu/debian do bacport security patches but dont increase the version. that is the idea behind a stable release system. its not a rolling release. [17:06] wb eric^^ [17:06] pineappletoothbr: if you delete them you will delete the actual contents of your encrypted home [17:06] http://m.imgur.com/3nVCjrC [17:06] with "they" I mean the 2.24 and 2.25 [17:06] Eric: thanks [17:07] Eric: ok, press continue [17:07] k1l_: ok that make sense [17:07] ishufncv: what security issues are you wondering about? CVE please [17:07] ishufncv: and 2.24 is in 16.10+ [17:07] it said where are you? [17:07] ducasse thanks, there's twenty of them though. Is everything working as it should or there shouldn't be so many? [17:07] ishufncv: also 2.25 is not yet in Debian and we're unlikely to move ahead of Debian on glibc === danny_ is now known as pinchi [17:08] pineappletoothbr: there are usually plenty of them, yes.

From there, you should be able to import keys. Run through the Enigmail wizard. [20:16] !who | rx-determine [20:16] rx-determine: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [20:16] ok brb [20:16] rx-determine: in soviet russia, email install you.

I don't have thunderbird with enigmail with me at the moment. Sorry :( [20:20] does anyone here use quilt [20:21] how do you make quilt mail to thread the sent messages? [20:22] now that I can see the Grub2 menu when booting the ubuntu ISO. Can I change the resolution of the menu from GRUB? [20:23] obviously it won't be a permanent change but just so that the menu is legible [20:23] I found references to GRUB_GFXMODE but not sure if it can be set from grub> [20:23] hydrajump: yeah, it's in the grub settings somewhere. I think it's in /etc/default/grub [20:24] hydrajump: when you are in grub, you can enter grub command line and change options from there [20:24] bytefire: not really ontopic -- but i think it's a flag to quilt [20:26] nacc: thanks for replying! been asking all day.. [20:27] nacc: sorry can't find the right channel. there is a --reply-to option to quilt mail, but i don't know how to use it. [20:27] it seems to be looking for a file, i.e. a sent email file [20:28] when i supply a sent email it works okay but then it still generates an intro email [20:28] no idea how to do it. btw i'm using 0.65 [20:31] Hello again [20:32] Having trouble using environment variables with spaces in them [20:32] I could compile an out-of-tree driver (kernel module) for my mobile-broadband card [20:32] For example `export space="human readable name"` [20:32] Now how could I use it instead of the current driver? [20:32] running `env` would give space=human [20:33] Sorry, interpreting the output of `env` gives space=human [20:33] but ignores "readable name" [20:33] Hello, is it possible for me to see the UDP messages being sent by an application? My goal is to recreate the same type of messages to send to the same target port. [20:35] apowl: you might want the bash channel?

[20:38] nacc: yeah posted on mailing list yesterday [20:38] S0bait: yes -- i think that's what wireshark and others can do [20:38] bytefire: ok :) [20:39] nacc: i thought the same - message id. but it fails with error. something like file not found [20:39] trying to replicate an existing machine. did the base install of 12.04 (I know, I know; I'm trying to see how an upgrade will affect the current box).

[21:46] thanks [21:47] Blackhawk8100, with 16.04 you will get the open source radeon driver, or AMDgpu opensource, automaticly.

[23:02] which card and what drivers, which version of ubuntu [23:02] frozenonline, Using nvidia-prime. Known issue I think. [23:03] 960m; Drivers 378.13; ubuntu 16.04 [23:03] frozenonline, it is said in the nvidia forum by a mod or something, patches are sent, but it won't be in 16.04. [23:03] frozenonline, tearing using what vid player\ [23:03] I have an i7 6770HQ; MSI Laptop GP72-6QF [23:04] frozenonline: screen tearing in firefox? or any specific application ? [23:04] it is a known issue with nvidia, both x and kernel needed patches [23:04] firefox mostly and simple watching small videos within VLC, Video Player [23:05] frozenonline, what happens with smplayer [23:06] frozenonline: in firefox enter "about:config" in the address bar (without the " " of course) and observe your settings [23:07] frozenonline: locate "layers.acceleration.force-enabled" [23:07] frozenonline: report it's state/status [23:07] haven't tried smplayer [23:08] default | boolean | false [23:08] frozenonline: set it to "true" [23:08] frozenonline, so why not give it a check [23:09] frozenonline: apply the changes, exit and relaunch/restart firefox and test for this so called "tearing" [23:10] frozenonline: report observations afterward [23:10] frozenonline, does the video have a slightly blue-ish tint to it [23:12] does the tearing on vlc come with reszing the window, does vlc start fullscreen [23:13] smplayer seems to work nicely. [23:14] For VLC it happens in reg window and in FS mode [23:14] no change on setting the default value from false to true [23:15] so on to test with smplayer, if you so decide [23:15] no bluish tint [23:15] not video acceleration then [23:15] oddly enough when using the xvidia settings and switching to intel works fine.. [23:17] This may not be the proper venue but I have a question in regards to the nvidia settings; if my display shows. "PRIME Displays cannot be controlled by nvidia-settings and must be configured by an external RandR capable tool. [23:17] This is why I want to switch over to bumblebee one day. [23:17] Does that may any difference when modifying the xorg.conf file? [23:18] is it possible to use a font .pf2 as a terminal font? [23:18] would upgrading to the latest X11 (1.19) make a difference? [23:19] or it simply an nvidia driver issue or a combination thereof? [23:19] frozenonline, doing all that before checking other video players? [23:21] frozenonline, just google nvidia prime screen tearing, lot's of people having the same issues and possible fixes. [23:22] thanks wire. [23:22] I want to copy a 5.9 gb file to a thumb drive of 128. I read online how to format and even mount it so Icould transfer the file. It still says win95 on Fdisk -l. It copy file an the last bit it said some kind of error. I'm lost what should I do ? I trying to play the file on the PS4. I having such a hard time getting this working. Is exfat supported any more. [23:22] Or workarounds :( [23:23] You can use bumblebee instead of nvidia prime as well, but I think it's hard to configure. It didn't work for me and I gave up on it. [23:24] It creates a new xorg instance with the gpu, just to run a specific application and switches off the gpu when it isn't required without logout/reboot. [23:27] Question about Ubuntu 16.04.02 in the 32 bit version. Is PAE enabled by default or is some manual tweaking needed?? [23:27] Hiya all. Not sure im in the right place. Is there anyone here with knowledge of the ubuntu classic server image for raspberry pi 2? [23:29] popey, are you available? You approved my wiki editor application, but I still can't edit the London, Ontario page. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/London [23:30] james1138: ubuntu is PAE only :) [23:33] Mayor Thanks K1l!! I am using the 64 bit version but I am just plain worn out trying to get my older 32 bit apps to run. On top of that... getting Wine to run 32 bit so I can keep playing my favorite old 32 bit games... yuck. If this grampa had hair - it be yanked out. [23:34] The only thing I see maybe a issue of Chrome no longer updates 32 bit... but I can live with that. [23:34] james1138: ubuntu is multiarch. so you can run 32bit stuff on the 64bit os. and there should not be any doubt to run a 64bit os on a 64bit cpu [23:34] james1138: wine runs on 64bit. [23:35] but yeah, as you mentioned the opposite is not true [23:35] Wine requires 32 bit architure (sorry spelling) to run 32 bit Windows apps. [23:35] (so no 64-bit dependent stuff on 32-bit) [23:37] james1138: it depens on 32bit libs which you can install on 64bit ubuntu. [23:38] iirc wine will drag in a lot of 32bit libs anyway. [23:40] Google isn't really helping me here... If I have an incoming request on 1.2.3.4:80, how would I redirect that to 1.2.3.5:8081, which is on the same machine (I assume using iptables) [23:40] I'm having issues binding my server directly to the second IP for some reason... It's a DigitalOcean floating IP, and doesn't appear on ifconfig, so I'm wondering if that could also be causing issues... === erwinnovo is now known as easyOnMe [23:58] /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER snowrichard rycwohzttfex [23:59] snowrichard: time to change your password [23:59] You added a space there [23:59] ^
