[00:00] <adymitruk> OerHeks: thank you.. I'll send that link.
[00:01] <bonsairoot> OerHeks, True... according to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dell_XPS_13_(9360)#Bluetooth they have Killer 1535 which is in mainline... bluetooth should work out of the box
[00:01] <adymitruk> k1l_: yes, I'm familiar with the project. I just thought there was a specific page for it
[00:01] <k1l_> adymitruk: and ususally dell lists all the needed drivers on their support webpages. if they need special drivers that are not inlcuded in ubuntu already
[00:02] <adymitruk> k1l_: ya.. this guy can't for the life of it to get his bluetooth headphones to work with it
[00:02] <bonsairoot> adymitruk, If it really is the newest xps 13 (late 2016) the driver should be in recent kernel versions already (see link I posted)
[00:02] <adymitruk> bonsairoot: yes I'm reading that page. thank you.
[00:03] <tatertots> adymitruk: have the actual end user of the computer come here directly for help......
[00:03] <k1l_> adymitruk: there is a difference with BT doesnt work at all and BT doesnt work with some other device :/
[00:03] <adymitruk> k1l_: I'm also wondering about that.. I'll see if he can get any other bluetooth things to connect
[00:16] <nacc> momken: yes, i assume so
[00:25] <momken> nacc: I created a new issue in their github repo. I hope they could help me, because I guess they are my last chance to make this card work in ubuntu
[00:25] <momken> nacc: Thank you for helping me :)
[00:33] <foli> Canonical data centre firewall maintenance is now complete.
[00:34] <OerHeks> foli, is there a bounty for testing?
[00:35] <nacc> momken: you are welcome
[00:42] <nacc> Sweetshark: fwiw, it worked fine for me (adt-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud)
[00:46] <dar123> Hey guyz, i want to create a script that does few things on startup. For e.g. Untar from source, compile, modify default configs, restart service. Have to start services in a sequence, what's the best practice
[00:54] <kirillow> im trying to get ubuntu to work on a machine with ryzen 7, prime x370 pro mobo, rx460 gpu but I cant install it. It's teling me `core perfctr but no constraints; unknown hardware!`
[00:54] <kirillow> also `no southbridge IOAPIC found` before that (though Im not sure they're related or that the latter is even fatal?)
[00:55] <OerHeks> kirillow, what kernel do you use?
[00:55] <OerHeks> 4.10.1 is stable, according to this page https://www.servethehome.com/amd-ryzen-with-ubuntu-here-is-what-you-have-to-do-to-fix-constant-crashes/
[00:58] <kirillow> is there a distro thats coming with 4.10.1 out of the box?
[00:58] <kirillow> otherwise, how would I do that?
[01:02] <Sweetshark> nacc: for zesty?
[01:05] <Sweetshark> nacc: on my xenial system it fails to find the zesty image (because it uses an outdated URL), on my my yakkety box it times out at some point. Patched the URL on xenial, maybe that works now.
[01:11] <Bashing-om> kirillow: The development release 17.04 runs the 4.10 kernel . inquire in #ubuntu+1 .

[01:37] <bazhang> brendon_, so you have no ubuntu issues
[01:37] <bazhang> brendon_, so find another channel to chatter in, NOT here
[01:37] <theorem> so, where is the "System" > "Administration" window in this article ?  : https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/37659/the-beginners-guide-to-linux-disk-utilities/
[01:38] <Sosa> Bashing-om
[01:38] <brendon_> ?
[01:39] <brendon_> baz.....did yo ujust tell me to leave?
[01:39] <hggdh> brendon_: yes.
[01:39] <wafflejock> theorem, you can just search for disk utility in the dash (hit the windows/super key)
[01:39] <bazhang> brendon_, take the chatter to another place, NOT here
[01:39] <Sosa> i need help pease
[01:39] <EriC^^> theorem: install smartmontools if you want a nice smart test
[01:39] <brendon_> catc a bullet wit your face.
[01:39] <theorem> EriC^^: yes, I have installed them
[01:40] <theorem> wafflejock: dash won't find "disk utility"
[01:40] <Sosa> If one wanted to help me could talk
[01:40] <wafflejock> theorem, try just "disks" are you using Unity? (personally on Gnome, they call it disks)
[01:40] <theorem> EriC^^: installed the CLI tools, was looking for a GUI one
[01:40] <nicomachus> wafflejock: "disks" here on unity
[01:40] <theorem> wafflejock: yes, nothing for "disks" either
[01:41] <theorem> Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
[01:42] <theorem> package manager also doesn't let me install 'GSmartControl'
[01:42] <theorem> so, er... not working
[01:45] <wafflejock> theorem, sorry had to search around a bit, the one I have is called gnome-disks the package is gnome-disk-utility if you want to install that one
[01:46] <wafflejock> not sure if that's the same Unity typically comes with though
[01:46] <theorem> wafflejock: trying
[01:46] <theorem> gnome-disks it is !
[01:46] <theorem> thanks
[01:46] <wafflejock> cool no prob
[01:47] <theorem>  Iwould never have found it
[01:47] <wafflejock> yeah strange that didn't come up in the dash
[01:47] <wafflejock> there should be a .desktop entry for it I think
[01:47] <theorem> while I have you here
[01:47] <theorem> I was looking for a way of exercising the disk because it's developing bad sectors
[01:48] <theorem> it's still passing SMART tests
[01:49] <wafflejock> hmm yeah I've heard the SMART tests are mostly bogus (Leo Laporte says) but don't know good utilities for testing hard drives really, someone else here may know though
[01:50] <wafflejock> I think in gnome-disks there's a benchmark option per filesystem
[01:50] <wafflejock> but not sure how much detail it'll give and probably better stuff out there
[01:50] <theorem> see ...
[01:50] <theorem> ZFS is reporting that 1 disk has bad sectors (2) : ata-WDC_WD30EFRX-68EUZN0_WD-WMC4N1410539
[01:51] <wafflejock> ah okay yeah would trust ZFS
[01:51] <theorem> and smartctl is reporting 6 bad sectors on WD-WMC4N1909308
[01:51] <theorem> (another disk)
[01:52] <theorem> but ...
[01:52] <theorem> WD-WMC4N1909308 is not in /dev/disk/by-id
[01:53]  * theorem rechecks
[01:53] <theorem> nope, it is .. hold ..
[01:54] <Sosa> When it appeared connect the phone to flash tool program comes to this letter [03:29] <Sosa> 15/056/2017 02:56:10 - ERROR - Not a sin file 15/056/2017 02:56:10 - ERROR - Error flashing
[01:54] <theorem> weird , it's not part of any pool
[01:56] <wafflejock> theorem, you might want to try #zfs or #hardware for those ones.  I mean you can write large images to the disks and check a checksum, but there's gotta be more thorough ways of checking the disk.  I know zfs has some tools for checking things too but it also checks on reads and writes I think but have only used it in a FreeNAS context so couldn't tell ya anything definitively
[01:57] <theorem> wafflejock: I think I may have an extra disk just sitting around ...
[01:57] <theorem> which would be weird
[01:58] <wafflejock> heh
[02:20] <adithya> j
[02:26] <binarydepth> Can an App write on another App's configuration files or have access ?

[03:23] <ufiq> plisss
[03:24] <davido_> ufiq: I'm not sure I understand. Do you have a question?
[03:25] <ufiq> new of training
[03:25] <davido_> fine, but this is the ubuntu support channel. is there a specific question?
[03:25] <ufiq> bugtraq
[03:25] <ufiq> bugtraq
[03:25] <davido_> ufiq: That is not a question.
[03:26] <ufiq> no
[03:27] <Padawan> Is vim supposed to come with ubuntu?
[03:28] <niiyaizu> Padawan: no
[03:28] <davido_> Padawan: vi is pre-installed. you can install vim using apt.
[03:28] <B105PH3RE> vi does though
[03:28] <niiyaizu> that'd be terribly inefficient
[03:28] <Padawan> niiyaizu: what would be terribly inneficient?
[03:28] <B105PH3RE> mousepad,leafpad are gui editors that are good also
[03:28] <ufiq> corupt
[03:28] <niiyaizu> Padawan: having to download ubuntu every time you install vim
[03:29] <davido_> ufiq: please stop whatever that is you are doing.
[03:29] <ufiq> code hack facebook
[03:29] <Padawan> He says he can use vi command but he says when he opens vi it says its Vi Improved.
[03:29] <Padawan> whats up with that
[03:29] <ufiq> bug
[03:31] <JohnDoe2> any idea how I may make available my user's $PATH to /usr/bin/env? When ran from sshkit (a ruby ssh command automation), echo $PATH does not include my user's $PATH. Not sure what the terminology is, but .bashrc does not get loaded with this type of ssh session.
[03:35] <Cyber_Akuma> Is it possible to run Ubuntu without a swap partition if you have a large amoutn of ram?
[03:35] <Ben64> yes
[03:36] <Padawan> its possible if u dont have a large amount of ram
[03:43] <PipeItToDevNull> Cyber_Akuma, Just dont max the RAM
[03:43] <PipeItToDevNull> You dont need alot
[03:46] <Epx998> anyone familar with dnsmasq, the #dnsmasq guys are afk
[04:33] <darthho0> Hey I have a Killer e2400 gigabit ethernet controller using alx driver. My wired connection is extremely slow or not working at all. Just installed 16.04 and it says connected but not internet activity
[04:38] <darthho0> my wired connection is going very slow or not connecting at all in 16.04
[04:47] <darthho0> k
[04:54] <tatertots> darthho0: are you using the computer right now?
[04:54] <darthho0> yeah
[04:55] <darthho0> tatertots, i tried disabling ip6 but not working
[04:55] <tatertots> darthho0: at this moment is it (A) going very slow or (B) not connected at all?
[04:55] <darthho0> in and out while going slow tatertots
[04:55] <darthho0> i'm on another computer for xchat but my other computer is having the problems... it connects and reconnects ofter
[04:55] <tatertots> darthho0: what method are you using to measure 'slow'?
[04:56] <darthho0> when i apt-get install something it goes slow or stops and my wireless gets 1mb/s versus 40kbs on wired
[04:57] <darthho0> tatertots,
[04:57] <dsixone2> hello
[04:58] <tatertots> darthho0: have you performed a thorough analysis of the logs?
[04:58] <darthho0> no not entirely sure how
[04:58] <darthho0> i can barely read ifconfig ;/
[04:59] <darthho0> it was working relatively good when i fresh installed 16.04, but it was still slow... now it justs cuts on and off tatertots
[05:00] <apb1963> Is anyone using Godot for game development?  I'm running into issues with mouse & window - I don't know if it's just me, Godot, Unity Desktop or what...
[05:00] <tatertots> darthho0: well it takes experience to perform a thorough analysis, so you would either need to (A) gain the years of experience yourself to be able to perform such a task, or (B) allow another person to perform this analysis, which may trigger trust issues if you have them and paranoia if you suffer with that
[05:00] <tatertots> darthho0: so it's a rather tough spot to be in
[05:01] <darthho0> yeah lol ubuntu use to just work... but lets do this analysis
[05:02] <Kali_Yuga> how do I tell it to automatically connect to a specific  channel too? I've done so far: irssi --connect=$SERVER  --password=$PW --port=$PORT --nick=$NICK
[05:02] <tatertots> darthho0: does the symptom occur when booted to livecd/liveusb?....if this symptom is recently occurring it's likely something recently has induced this symptom, in any even you will need to do the following in terminal
[05:02] <tatertots> darthho0: in terminal>     sudo apt install inxi pastebinit sosreport
[05:03] <apb1963> I think it's  unity... my desktop just rebooted itself.
[05:03] <tatertots> darthho0: if wireless is faster at the moment then perform the above action while using wireless
[05:03] <darthho0> tatertots, honestly installing anything will take about an hour... with that connection
[05:03] <darthho0> i don't have wireless on that computer :(
[05:04] <tatertots> darthho0: do you have livecd/liveusb?
[05:04] <darthho0> yeah should i load that up and see if problem is there?
[05:05] <tatertots> darthho0: does the symptom occur when booted to livecd/liveusb? yes or no.....you should be able to answer that question definitively after you boot livecd/liveusb
[05:05] <apb1963> tatertots, Ask him about his router. Then tell him to reboot the router and see if that helps.
[05:05] <darthho0> doing now
[05:06] <apb1963> tatertots, my router does crappy things requiring reboots every so often.  Maybe he has one too.
[05:07] <tatertots> apb1963: he'll rule out his installed os as the possible culprit, then if needed based on the results booted to livecd/liveusb the network and it's equipment will be investigated
[05:08] <apb1963> tatertots, sounds good :)
[05:10] <darthho0> tatertots, oddly enough it won't connect. i don't think its detected the wire
[05:11] <tatertots> darthho0: your objective 1st and foremost was to boot to livecd/liveusb.....so the first order of business is to confirm that you were successful at that task alone
[05:11] <tatertots> darthho0: are you booted to livecd/liveusb yes or no?
[05:12] <tatertots> darthho0: are you booted to livecd/liveusb?   yes or no
[05:12] <darthho0> yes tatertots
[05:13] <ubuntu69> ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu
[05:13] <niiyaizu> ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu
[05:13] <ubuntu69> why does #clones forward to ##unavailable, whose entrymsg says the channel i was trying to reach may be clone-infested?
[05:13] <root> !ops
[05:13] <ubuntu69> its kind of the point in trying to join #clones
[05:13] <tatertots> darthho0: while booted to livecd/liveusb unplug and replug the ethernet cable
[05:13] <ubuntu69> i am looking for clonez
[05:13] <FTY> .
[05:14] <ubuntu69> !ops | root is floodspamming via the !ops-bot
[05:14] <tatertots> darthho0: do you have connectivity after unplug and replug of the ethernet cable? yes or no
[05:14] <darthho0> no
[05:15] <tatertots> darthho0: power cycling your router/modem will disrupt connectivity for all devices on the network, with that being said, that is something you could try while booted to livecd/liveusb
[05:16] <darthho0> i can't get to router currently. kinda impossible
[05:16] <dsixone2> that is not problem
[05:17] <tatertots> darthho0: do you have a livecd/liveusb of any other linux distribution in your possession?
[05:18] <darthho0> yeah freebsd fedora etc but i think they are outdated
[05:18] <darthho0> slackware shit like that but very old
[05:19] <darthho0> like bsd9 and ubuntu 11 and fedora 13 i think fedora is the most recent one
[05:19] <tatertots> darthho0: the symptom isn't inherent to your installed os exclusively as the symptom is also observed while booted to livecd/liveusb,
[05:20] <darthho0> well that might not be entirely true... because pre installation i dled files from ubuntu to update the os
[05:20] <Kali_Yuga> how do I tell it to automatically connect to a specific  channel too? I've done so far: irssi --connect=$SERVER  --password=$PW --port=$PORT --nick=$NICK
[05:20] <darthho0> for some reason i have no wired connection in this liveboot
[05:22] <tatertots> darthho0: your initial testimony says "slow OR no connectivity"....intermittently in nature....
[05:23] <tatertots> darthho0: thus far while booted to livecd/liveusb you have observed 1of2 of those symptoms (no connection)
[05:24] <darthho0> yeah correct tatertots
[05:24] <tatertots> darthho0: boot another linux distro (of your choice) and determine if the symptom occurs with another linux distro
[05:26] <tatertots> darthho0: report the results of the findings
[05:26] <darthho0> must it be an alternative distro or could it be 13.10 ub
[05:27] <darthho0> i got fedora 20 i'll try that
[05:27] <tatertots> darthho0: what livecd/liveusb are you booted to right now?
[05:27] <darthho0> ubuntu 164
[05:28] <darthho0> damn fedora is pretty lol
[05:28] <tatertots> darthho0: as long as it's a linux distro other than ubuntu 164 (as you wrote) it's good for the purpose of this analysis
[05:29] <tatertots> darthho0: does the symptom occur (either of them slow/no) when booted to fedora?
[05:30] <darthho0> same with fedora
[05:30] <darthho0> its showing no connection at all btw
[05:31] <tatertots> darthho0: then the symptom is exhibited with your hardware/pc no matter what linux is used, meaning it is not a ubuntu issue nor is it a fedora issue for that matter...we just ruled out os's
[05:32] <darthho0> i just got this computer in the mail today lol
[05:33] <darthho0> it was working earlier
[05:33] <tatertots> darthho0: because you have no access to the network gear, the only things you have access to that you can physically touch would be bios settings that involve the network adapter, the cable that is being used and.............
[05:33] <darthho0> when i boot os from ssd the wired connection is on
[05:33] <tatertots> darthho0: your environment is also another common denominator is this
[05:33] <tatertots> in this
[05:34] <tatertots> darthho0: when i say environment this included but is not limited to the ethernet cable that may have hypothetically speaking been chewed on by a cat/dog or pet you may own and other "environmental" conditions
[05:35] <tatertots> hypothetically speaking
[05:36] <nwe> hmm if you will host your own apt-repo is reprepo the best chocie or is something else I should use instead?
[05:36] <tatertots> darthho0: do you have another known good ethernet cable to replace the current one with?
[05:36] <OerHeks> bending cheap wires can do that too
[05:36] <tatertots> darthho0: that would rule out a bad cable
[05:37] <darthho0> h/o
[05:37] <darthho0> i'll check
[05:37] <OerHeks> nwe, you can choose a private ppa, it survives formatting
[05:38] <OerHeks> http://askubuntu.com/questions/71510/how-do-i-create-a-ppa
[05:38] <tatertots> darthho0: in your testimony you say "it was working earlier"
[05:39] <tatertots> darthho0: environmentally speaking.....what has changed between now and then....give it some thought
[05:39] <darthho0> i put in a gpu
[05:39] <tatertots> darthho0: any thing else you can think of?
[05:40] <darthho0> no not really
[05:40] <nwe> OerHeks: I will take a look on it.. Im goal is to sync dockers repo, so I can have the stuff in my internal network..
[05:40] <nwe> maybe I can use apt-mirror too that too?
[05:41] <tatertots> darthho0: then you will remove the gpu...as if entering into a time machine and going back to when it "worked" and report the results
[05:41] <darthho0> i'll just restart tomorrow and restart the router
[05:41] <darthho0> ok will do
[05:41] <OerHeks> nwe, sure
[05:42] <nwe> but maybe it looks cleaner to host that seperate?
[05:44] <darthho0> tatertots, still persist
[05:45] <tatertots> darthho0: did you also find a known good cable and replace the cable?....or are you still using the same cable
[05:46] <darthho0> don't have one right now
[05:46] <darthho0> i'll have access to more stuff tomorrow
[05:47] <tatertots> darthho0: most wired network adapters have small led lights on them...these are referred to as link lights or activity lights....do you see link lights when the ethernet cable is plugged in?
[05:47] <darthho0> when i load up computer it says network discovery has been disable
[05:48] <darthho0> yeah i do
[06:00] <ItsMeLenny> after using jackd ive lost control of my audio input
[06:01] <ItsMeLenny> even after jackd is off, i cant select or control inputs
[06:05] <darthho0> i got it working tatertots
[06:06] <darthho0> i was using a pluglink and used the ethernet through my cable box
[06:07] <sheen> .
[06:15] <tatertots> darthho0: glad you located the "environmental" culprit
[06:16] <tatertots> darthho0: those powerline ethernet things are hit and miss .....was it in the electrical outlet by itself or with a co tenant?
[06:20] <jordy_> Hi all. What would be the best way to collect the deb and all dependencies of a wireless driver of a currently offline computer on another Ubuntu computer?
[06:20] <jordy_> I would then like to install everything using a usb and dpkg...
[06:24] <OerHeks> jordy_, softwarecenter gives that option, to download only.
[06:24] <OerHeks> else see the !offline factoid
[06:24] <OerHeks> !offline
[06:25] <jordy_> Thank you guys.
[06:31] <FManTropyx> morning
[06:32] <bobsterman> good afternoon :p
[06:32] <tatertots> good evening
[06:32] <FManTropyx> no, morning!
[06:34] <bobsterman> any package maintainers on? need help with debhelper: Can you install to custom directories? i.e. /usr/share/<something>/<package>
[06:38] <OerHeks> bobsterman, yes, on ubuntu: ./configure --exec_prefix=/usr/share/<something> http://askubuntu.com/questions/879387/changing-default-directory-for-debhelper-while-packaging-deb
[06:38] <OerHeks> but you are on debian, ask there again
[06:40] <bobsterman> yea, some dude on debian has responded, thanks anyway

[07:03] <dahlia> I have ubuntu mate on a raspberry pi. I'd like to use it headless over a wifi connection but the wifi doesn't work unless I log in via the console. Is there any way around this?
[07:04] <hateball> dahlia: did you make sure to mark the wifi connection as a "system connection" ?
[07:04] <dahlia> hateball: I'm not sure I know how to do that
[07:04] <hateball> dahlia: otherwise it'll only auth to it after you log on
[07:05] <hateball> dahlia: go into the properties for the connection in network-manager and tick the box for "all users can use this" or some such
[07:05] <hateball> not running neither mate, nor english, but NM should look quite similar
[07:06] <dahlia> i dont see that option and the edit connection button is greyed out
[07:06] <dahlia> can I edit some file instead?
[07:11] <ducasse> dahlia: have you highlighted your connection?
[07:11] <dahlia> ducasse: yes but the edit button is disabled
[07:12] <dahlia> would it matter if I was doing this via vnc?
[07:12] <ducasse> i don't _think_ so...
[07:13] <FManTropyx> I just experienced 10 minutes of 100% HDD usage with practically no responsiveness including almost two minutes of the clock not running, mouse pointer not moving, nothing reacting to anything at all (16.04.2)
[07:13] <ducasse> dahlia: can you try running nm-connection-editor maually?
[07:14] <dahlia> kk
[07:15] <dahlia> ducasse: ok if I run it with sudo then it lets me edit
[07:17] <ducasse> dahlia: make sure both "automatically connect..." and "all users may connect..." are on under general.
[07:17] <dahlia> ducasse: I think I did both, rebooting now to test
[07:18] <dahlia> ducasse: looks like that worked :) tyvm!
[07:19] <ducasse> dahlia: np :)

[07:39] <plympton> HELLO i cant get runescape to install
[07:42] <OerHeks> plympton, how did you try to install runescape?
[07:44] <plympton> with the terminal
[07:45] <plympton> i am still trying with wine but no luck
[07:45] <OerHeks> runescape is available for 16.10 and up .. http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=runescape
[07:45] <linocisco> hi all, I have once installed atom editor to be used with Rails app development. I can't find it now anymore and how to make sure it has completely removed or still exist?
[07:45] <OerHeks> else you want a ppa like this one : https://launchpad.net/~hikariknight/+archive/ubuntu/unix-runescape-client
[07:45] <OerHeks> but carefull, ppa's are unsupported here
[07:46] <plympton> ok
[08:05] <OnceMe> I'm on 14.04 and I dont have systemd.. how do I disable services which are shown in services --status-all?
[08:07] <SebthreeBQM10HD> hi
[08:07] <ducasse> OnceMe: take a look at the update-rc.d man page
[08:08] <linocisco> hi all, I have once installed atom editor to be used with Rails app development. I can't find it now anymore and how to make sure it has completely removed or still exist?
[08:10] <ducasse> linocisco: 'locate atom'?
[08:11] <linocisco> ducasse, thanks. but so many outputs. some are under subdirectory of linux headers
[08:12] <ducasse> linocisco: try to grep for 'bin', for example
[08:12] <OnceMe> ducasse: I did update-rc.d disable nginx
[08:12] <OnceMe> but service --status-all shows nginx + still
[08:13] <OnceMe> do I need to relogin?
[08:13] <ducasse> OnceMe: you need to stop it, you only disabled it from starting on boot
[08:13] <linocisco> ducasse, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/24187437/
[08:13] <OnceMe> aha ok
[08:14] <ducasse> linocisco: 'locate atom | grep bin'
[08:15] <linocisco> ducasse, output is like that /usr/bin/xlsatoms
[08:16] <ducasse> linocisco: then atom is most likely gone
[08:16] <linocisco> ducasse, ok. thanks.
[08:18] <linocisco> sublinetext vs atom for ruby editor?
[08:18] <Duckle|wasDumle> linocisco: 70 usd vs 0 usd, and not really #ubuntu relevant :)
[08:18] <ducasse> linocisco: what is 'best' is totally subjective
[08:20] <linocisco> ducasse, Duckle|wasDumle sorry.
[08:20] <ducasse> linocisco: try them out yourself, see what you like :)
[08:27] <Morbious> hi
[08:29] <Morbious> can anyone point me how to get ifupdown to working properly on Ubuntu 16.04 ? I have problems with default gateway which isn't setting up after reboot
[08:30] <ikonia> ifupdown shouldn't really be used
[08:30] <ikonia> how are you setting the gateway
[08:30] <ikonia> and what are you doing to expect the gateway to appear on the network interface
[08:33] <Morbious> I use /etc/network/interfaces file
[08:34] <Morbious> what is proper instead of using ifupdown ?
[08:36] <ikonia> MacroMan: so ifupdown does just that, it ups or downs the actual interface,
[08:37] <ikonia> although I'm surprised it's not parsing the gateway param
[08:38] <Morbious> I found that there is a bug in ubuntu
[08:38] <ikonia> where ?
[08:38] <Morbious> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/1573272
[08:38] <ikonia> ahhh bond interfaces
[08:40] <Morbious> yeas , that's problem bond interfaces :)
[08:40] <ikonia> that sort of makes sense and isn't really a bug (I take the point though) as the bond device isn't a "real" interface
[08:42] <Morbious> yes, but in other systems it works
[08:42] <ikonia> really ? which other systems ?
[08:43] <Morbious> centos ?
[08:43] <ikonia> that handles interface config differently though, the ifup and ifdown scripts work different
[08:43] <Morbious> I have no problems with it on this system, debian too
[08:43] <ikonia> debian - that is interesting as that should be the same

[08:57] <anddam> hello
[08:57] <anddam> is there a straightforward way to edit a couple altgr combination in a English International AltGr layout?
[08:58] <anddam> namely I'd like to have simpler compositions for … and ·
[08:58] <anddam> now I'm using compose-compose-.  for the former and ctrl-shift-u and the code point for the latter
[08:59] <anddam> it's doable, but a bit annoying
[09:00] <schultza> that really doesnt help
[09:00] <schultza> too bland.
[09:01] <schultza> it also assumes you do not seperate /usr
[09:01] <schultza> night
[09:14] <Zenom> Hi
[09:14] <EriC^^> hi
[09:15] <Zenom> What's this error means? "sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set
[09:15] <Zenom> "
[09:15] <EriC^^> Zenom: it means it's not owned by root and doesn't have setuid bit, did you do chown -R something by mistake?
[09:17] <Zenom> yes
[09:17] <Zenom> I wanted to get permission to some file with -R
[09:17] <EriC^^> what did you run?
[09:17] <Zenom> How can I fix it?
[09:17] <EriC^^> what did you run first?
[09:19] <ikevin> Zenom, chown root:root /usr/bin/sudo && chmod +s /usr/bin/sudo
[09:19] <ikevin> so, it's possible you have break another rights
[09:19] <Zenom> sudo chmod -R a+w
[09:19] <Zenom> sudo chmod -R 775 '/usr/bin
[09:19] <Zenom> sudo chmod -R 775 '/home
[09:19] <EriC^^> Zenom: you need to reinstall unless you got a backup of the permissions
[09:19] <Zenom> sudo chmod -R 777 '/home
[09:20] <Zenom> reinstall sudo?
[09:20] <EriC^^> no, the whole os
[09:20] <ikevin> changing right on /usr/bin is a really bad idea
[09:20] <cfhowlett> really ^3 bad
[09:21] <Zenom> there's not any other solution, I can't reinstall whole OS
[09:21] <OerHeks> uh oh ..
[09:22] <OerHeks> you *can * reinstall, do doubt about that. you created a mess, no way of fixing that properly within 10 hrs
[09:23] <ZenWalker> hello, there is a database with a lot of .debs with old versions ?
[09:24] <ikevin> Zenom, you can use debootstrap to restore some rights, so it's better to reinstall
[09:24] <Zenom> how ikevin
[09:25] <ikevin> Zenom, installing another system on a directory, then copying file from new system to your current one
[09:27] <EriC^^> you could reinstall every package of the OS
[09:27] <EriC^^> using dpkg and xargs, it would take a while but it should work i guess
[09:28] <EriC^^> yup it works
[09:28] <ikevin> EriC^^, not sure that override defined right
[09:28] <EriC^^> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24187648/
[09:29] <EriC^^> he didn't change the owner, so it should be enough, didnt test ownership
[09:29] <ikevin> EriC^^, oh, good to know that !
[09:30] <EriC^^> Zenom: it shouldn't be that bad we can make it a little efficient
[09:32] <ramsub07> Hi, i'm trying to ssh into two servers in one command. I am also forwarding ports, from local to remote1, then remote1 to remote2. After ssh into the remote2, I want to activate a profile inside the server. I do this command, but the environment doesn't seem to get activated,  `ssh -f -L localhost:8888:localhost:8889 user@10.1.9.230 'ssh -f -L localhost:8889:localhost:8890 n13 -t 'source .ramanarc''`
[09:32] <EriC^^> find /usr/bin | while IFS='' read -r file; do package=$(dpkg -S $(readlink -f "$file") | cut -d: -f1); sudo apt-get install --reinstall -y "$package"; done
[09:33] <EriC^^> Zenom: ^ that will follow links, get the package responsible for the files, and reinstall that package
[09:34] <mono89> hi
[09:35] <apb1963> EriC^^, Since he hosed standard system files, another way would be for some kind soul to execute a find on their system, recording file privileges.. and then writing a simple script to restore them on the other side.
[09:35] <EriC^^> hi
[09:35] <EriC^^> apb1963: yeah but we have to have the exact same packages he has installed
[09:36] <EriC^^> it would be very trivial to get them back, just getfacl -Rnp /usr/bin > file, then sudo setfacl --restore=/file
[09:36] <apb1963> EriC^^, that would save him having to download... just a restoration of permissions if that makes any sense.
[09:36] <ramsub07> *i'd also be happy if when i ssh into my server, the .bashrc will be the source file
[09:37] <EriC^^> apb1963: yeah it does, it'll restore not fully though and other stuff too
[09:38] <apb1963> EriC^^, Would it be difficult to do a diff between the two systems?
[09:39] <ramsub07> Hi, i'm trying to ssh into two servers in one command. I am also forwarding ports, from local to remote1, then remote1 to remote2. After ssh into the remote2, I want to activate a profile inside the server. I do this command, but the environment doesn't seem to get activated,  `ssh -f -L localhost:8888:localhost:8889 user@10.1.9.230 'ssh -f -L localhost:8889:localhost:8890 n13 -t 'source .ramanarc''`
[09:39] <nugroho> wallpaper xorg picture howto?
[09:40] <EriC^^> apb1963: not really, maybe dpkg -l on both, and then use comm to see what packages are missing
[09:40] <apb1963> ramsub07, what profile?  how do you know it's not being activated?
[09:41] <EriC^^> i forget how comm works, if it doesn't have to be sorted and it just looks if the line is there or not
[09:41] <ramsub07> apb1963: i have created that profile just a couple of minutes ago
[09:41] <ramsub07> that profile is .ramanarc
[09:41] <apb1963> EriC^^, just a thought.  Probably too much work.  Much easier your way
[09:41] <Zenom> sorry ikevin and EriC^^ I was calling with phone back again
[09:41] <apb1963> .rama narc is your profile?
[09:42] <apb1963> Why would you expect that to work?  Is that something new I don't know about?
[09:42] <EriC^^> Zenom: is internet connection a problem? you can download the packages that relate to the files with this command below
[09:42] <EriC^^> find /usr/bin | while IFS='' read -r file; do package=$(dpkg -S $(readlink -f "$file") | cut -d: -f1); sudo apt-get install --reinstall -y "$package"; done
[09:43] <EriC^^> for me wc -l gives 2600 files, so there's a lot
[09:43] <Zenom> EriC^^, https://ghostbin.com/paste/uef48
[09:44] <apb1963> ramsub07, What commands did you put in your .rama narc file?
[09:44] <EriC^^> Zenom: there's the part after -y
[09:44] <ramsub07> apb1963: i am activating an anaconda environment and a couple of environment variables
[09:44] <Zenom> after enter showed me just >
[09:45] <EriC^^> Zenom: press ctrl+c, copy it again
[09:45] <EriC^^> you didn't put the whole thing, there's some stuff after -y still
[09:45] <Zenom> Ok I'll check again
[09:48] <apb1963> ramsub07, Edit the .profile file.  Put your commands in there, at the bottom after everything else.  See if that works for what you're trying to do.  Someone else may have a better recommendation like .bashrc I'm not sure which is better for what you're doing.
[09:49] <ramsub07> apb1963: can i do something like "source .ramanarc" in the .profile file
[09:49] <ramsub07> ?
[09:49] <apb1963> ramsub07, Actually I think you can.  Good idea.  Try it.
[09:50] <Zenom> EriC^^, just flooding by sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set
[09:50] <EriC^^> Zenom: oh, press ctrl+c
[09:50] <EriC^^> Zenom: remove sudo from the command and run it from a root shell
[09:51] <apb1963> Is anyone using Godot for game development?  I'm running into issues with mouse & window - I don't know if it's just me, Godot, Unity Desktop or what...
[10:02] <apb1963> probably me.
[10:02] <Zenom> sorry EriC^^ I have Internet problem, but the command showed me again sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set
[10:02]  * apb1963 goes to bed.  zzzzzzz

[10:12] <mono89> ahh perfect thx
[10:12] <EriC^^> Zenom: yeah, if you haven't enabled the root password then login from the recovery and fix the sudo permissions

[10:29] <k1l_> yao_ziyuan: no, ubuntu uses ext4 as standard filesystem, which doesnt need defragmentation like the windows filesystems do
[10:30] <adityaduggal__> hi
[10:30] <yao_ziyuan> k1l_: how do i know my system's file system type?
[10:30] <Photon> EriC^^ https://i.imgur.com/8DYqlW7.jpg
[10:31] <k1l_> yao_ziyuan: "sudo parted -l" will tell what partition has what filesystem
[10:32] <Photon> ikevin https://i.imgur.com/8DYqlW7.jpg
[10:32] <yao_ziyuan> k1l_: ok, it's ext4.
[10:33] <k1l_> yao_ziyuan: that is the ubuntu standard
[10:34] <yao_ziyuan> k1l_: thx

[10:34] <Bob_> Hi, I want to run Ubuntu on a PC and I have the ISOs on a Mac
[10:34] <Bob_> I want to use a USB
[10:34] <ikevin> Photon, don't use " on IFS= so 2 '
[10:34] <Photon> ikevin ok
[10:34] <k1l_> Bob_: use "dd" to create the ubuntu usb.
[10:35] <ikevin> Photon, and don't drop the space after
[10:35] <Bob_> Won't work, gives an error: no mountable filesystems
[10:36] <ikevin> Photon, oups, replace : echo "$package" by : apt-get install --reinstall "$package"
[10:36] <Photon> would please give me whole command again please ikevin
[10:37] <ikevin> Photon, find /usr/bin | while IFS='' read -r file; do package=$(dpkg -S $(readlink -f "$file") | cut -d: -f1); apt-get install --reinstall -y "$package"; done
[10:37] <Photon> thanks
[10:38] <k1l_> Bob_: try this= https://penguintosh.com/
[10:39] <akis> kll: ok thanks i will do it.

[10:42] <ikevin> Photon, does "ping google.fr" is working?
[10:44] <Photon> ping: unknown host google.fr ikevin
[10:46] <ikevin> Photon, ok, and "ping 8.8.8.8" ?
[10:46] <akis> kll: i started thunar through terminal. i shredded a file to check if terminal reports anything. thunar freezed. nothing was written on terminal. i terminated thunar because was hanged. Terminal says: killed. Nothing else. No sign about what makes thunar to be freezed. any help?
[10:47] <ikevin> akis, does dmesg show you anything? or on .xsession_errors
[10:47] <vlt> Hello. When I use x2x and specify "-east", for example, everything works fine for keyboard and mouse. Now I want to get rid of "-east" and have the controlled screen directly on my X display. This works for keyboard but not for mouse: I can't see the mouse movement on the remote screen and also clicking doesn't seems to have an effect. I tried "-big" but no difference. Any idea what to do here?
[10:48] <Photon> connect : Network is unreasonable ikevin
[10:48] <thereyougo> I have this weird behavior in bash, if I type very long command and it reaches right edge of the screen it doesn't wraps to a new line, imagine screen is about 12 characters and I use symbol "|" as edges of the screen, now if I type this command:
[10:48] <thereyougo> |$ls /dir/dir/di|
[10:49] <thereyougo>  it reaches the right edge and now if I type "r" the screen will be like:
[10:49] <thereyougo> |r            |
[10:49] <thereyougo> so it just scrolled entire line left off the screen at put cursor at the begining, instead of wrapping to a new line
[10:49] <ikevin> Photon, does you computer use ethernet cable or wifi?
[10:49] <thereyougo> how to fix it ?
[10:50] <akis> ikevin:  on .xsession_errors there is only this message: "openConnection: connect: No such file or directory. cannot connect to brltty at :0" . On what should I pay attention on dmesg?
[10:51] <thereyougo> or in other words the command line is a one line like in IRC client, where you don't have multiline editing and you have to scroll back and forth through one line of text
[10:52] <tozen> akis: have u tryed to remove thunar configuration from ~/.config?
[10:52] <thereyougo> I don't think its a "bug" of some sort, it just requires setting some option or parameter but I need to know what is it
[10:52] <OerHeks> thereyougo, screenshot?
[10:53] <akis> tozen. no. should I try it?
[10:53] <thereyougo> OerHeks: why
[10:53] <thereyougo> OerHeks: you using IRC client right now, so you know what I'm talkign about
[10:53] <tozen> akis: coshkan mate!!
[10:53] <OerHeks> thereyougo, your issue is so weird, and a screenshot might help
[10:54] <akis> tozen. i beg your pardon?
[10:55] <tozen> akis: just move it to another name and restart thunar
[10:57] <Photon> I'm using Ethernet ikevin
[10:57] <thereyougo> OerHeks: do this: in your bash terminal press "a" and hold it, after 10 seconds you will see 4-5 lines of "aaaaaaaaaa" text on your screen, because it wraps after every 80 or so characters, now try the same in your IRC client, after you get 80 characters your IRC client just scrolls entire line to the left and puts your cursor in the middle and it just cotinue scrolling text to the left putting your
[10:57] <thereyougo> cursor in the middle so after 10 seconds of pressing "a" you will still see just one line in IRC client, that is how my bash behaves there is only one "edit" line
[10:57] <ikevin> Photon, ok, type "ifconfig" and search a line that start by "enp" and give me the full interface name
[10:58] <k1l_> thereyougo: what ubuntu is that exactly? what terminal is in use?did you change things?
[10:58] <OerHeks> thereyougo, what if you hold ctrl and press <-
[10:58] <jink> /lc/lc
[10:58] <thereyougo> OerHeks: press what ?
[10:59] <k1l_> thereyougo: did you make changes to your .bashrc?
[11:00] <jink> thereyougo: ctrl + left arrow
[11:00] <Photon> ikevin https://i.imgur.com/mEizJZM.jpg
[11:00] <OerHeks> <- = arrow backwards
[11:00] <OerHeks> why not a screenshot, i wonder
[11:00] <thereyougo> it prints ;5D
[11:00] <Photon> didn't find line started with enp
[11:01] <ikevin> Photon, try "ifconfig -a"
[11:01] <Photon> ok "enp3s0"
[11:02] <Photon> ok "enp3s0"  ikevin
[11:02] <ikevin> Photon, ok, now: dhclient enp3s0
[11:03] <thereyougo> I think if you never experience it you can't help
[11:03] <Photon> ikevin done
[11:04] <k1l_> thereyougo: and i think with that attitude and not answering questions for more specific informations, its not possible to help you :/
[11:04] <ikevin> Photon, now try again "ping google.fr"
[11:05] <thereyougo> you can't do nothing, I don't blame you, but its so sad
[11:06] <k1l_> ok. looks like he was not interessted in resolving that issue at all
[11:06] <ducasse> thereyougo: this sounds like a readline setting i vaguely remember, it should be covered either in 'man bash' or 'man 3readline readline'
[11:06] <ducasse> oh, too late.
[11:06] <cfhowlett> noted and added to /ignore
[11:06] <OerHeks> i am só sorry

[11:08] <akis> tozen. nothing changed. still hangs when it shredds.
[11:10] <ikevin> Photon, ok, now you can retype the "find /usr/bin ..." command
[11:10] <Photon> ok but Google didn't worked ikevin
[11:11] <ikevin> Photon, ok correct !
[11:11] <ikevin> Photon, echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf
[11:12] <akis> Before this issue appeared Thunar while shredding files was working and the user could see the file how it was shredding. Now Thunar seems to shredd them but no visible work and meanwhile is freezes.

[11:16] <adityaduggal_> need help managing multiple ubuntu desktops
[11:18] <adityaduggal_> Need to have the following requirements: 1. Connect Remotely via SSH over internet, 2. Connect remotely via remote desktop over internet, 3. Manage common username passwords for all machines via cloud server, 4. Get keystrokes of computers with screenshots
[11:18] <adityaduggal_> Can any one let me know how to go about the above requirements
[11:20] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[11:21] <JuJUBee> After reboot, fsck ran on /home  where can I view results?
[11:21] <akis> Well. I saw at var/log/syslog the following message: Thunar[1538]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fcd1abbb9de sp 00007ffc95f9c758 error 4 in libc-2.23.so[7fcd1ab1d000+1bf000]. Is it clear what happens on my system and Thunar hangs while shredding files?
[11:23] <guest0815> I want to create a new user to run a process with restricted rights (spawned for that user by root). There isn't any reason to give that user a password, is there?
[11:24] <OerHeks> JuJUBee, /var/log/fsck
[11:25] <OerHeks> ?
[11:25] <JuJUBee> OerHeks, (Nothing has been logged yet.)
[11:25] <ikevin> Photon, hard to see anything :x
[11:26] <OerHeks> JuJUBee, or find it with: grep -A 1 fsck /var/log/*
[11:26] <Photon> I tried to take a better phone but sorry
[11:28] <ducasse> guest0815: no, it's much like being able to run processes as root with sudo without root having a password
[11:28] <JuJUBee> OerHeks, checkfs returned 2 messages in syslog from March 13.  I restarted the server on March 14 which is when the fsck must have run
[11:28] <JuJUBee> At least the notification that it needs to run...
[11:29] <JuJUBee> I was not in due to weather.  This morning I let fsck run on /home  and there are no messages for today
[11:29] <guest0815> ducasse: ok, cool. Wanted to make sure I got that idea right.
[11:30] <OerHeks> JuJUBee, not sure if all is 100% oke, there will be a log ?
[11:31] <Photon> ikevin https://i.imgur.com/lhnBoJQ.jpg
[11:32] <ikevin> Photon, you have write "resolv.cof" instead of "resolv.conf"
[11:32] <akis> anyone has any idea about this error: Thunar[1538]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fcd1abbb9de sp 00007ffc95f9c758 error 4 in libc-2.23.so[7fcd1ab1d000+1bf000] ?
[11:33] <guest0815> akis: what did you do when it happened?
[11:34] <Photon> ikevin worked
[11:34] <Photon> Google ping working :) ikevin
[11:34] <guest0815> akis: Thunar has this pesky bug that makes it crash when doing simple file operations like moving or renaming. It could be that.
[11:35] <akis> guest0815: i shredded a file using Thunar's custom action shred command. First time this issue appeared is today after yesterdays system update. Before it worked fine for months (Xubuntu 16.04.2 installed)
[11:35] <Photon> ikevin I rewrite and run the command again, working...
[11:36] <Photon> ikevin When done I'll let you know
[11:36] <ikevin> Photon, ok, now do the "find ...." command
[11:37] <akis> guest0815: it's a new issue for me.
[11:38] <guest0815> akis: I think yours is a different issue to the one i'm familiar with. No idea, sorry.
[11:39] <Guest69061> I am running xenial/desktop. I want to go back to an older version that was in xenial ( linux-image-4.2.0-17-generic ), but it no longer seems to be in the repo.
[11:39] <akis> guest0815: I think so too! And i looked for similar complains but i found nothing. I am afraid is a new one.
[11:39] <Guest69061> Is there are repo with old unsupported packages for a supported version?
[11:40] <ducasse> Guest69061: not really, no.

[12:25] <InvisibleRasta> what do i have to install?
[12:26] <hateball> InvisibleRasta: you should be able to to pick the restricted driver in the software updater gui
[12:27] <InvisibleRasta> what is the software updater gui?
[12:27] <hateball> eum.. I dunno, I dont run unity. search for "updates" in dash I guess
[12:27] <PipeItToDevNull> "Additional Drivers"
[12:28] <PipeItToDevNull> Is what the app is called
[12:29] <k1l> InvisibleRasta: system-settings > software and updates > lst tab
[12:29] <InvisibleRasta> i selected nvidia binary driver from there and do i have to also put  using processor microde firmware for intel cpu from intel-microcode
[12:29] <Photon> ikevin https://i.imgur.com/hT97gPc.jpg stuck here for a while
[12:30] <k1l> InvisibleRasta: yes, the intel microcode doesnt hurt to install too
[12:30] <InvisibleRasta> after installign this i should be able to reboot and have X working with nvidia?
[12:30] <hateball> InvisibleRasta: Yep
[12:30] <ikevin> Photon, i don't see any error, your computer is maybe working, do you see the hard disk led blinking?
[12:31] <k1l> InvisibleRasta: yes
[12:31] <Photon> ikevin neither do I
[12:32] <FMan> now the Ubuntu machine is completely frozen: the clock is still showing 10:52, which was almost 4 hours ago
[12:32] <Photon> but now I don't see blinking ikevin
[12:32] <FMan> I guess there is nothing else to do, but a hardware reset
[12:33] <ikevin> Photon, if you hit "enter" key, does the computer show you a move?
[12:34] <Photon> ikevin I hit the enter just next other line
[12:35] <Photon> Didn't happened anything else ikevin
[12:35] <ikevin> Photon, nop
[12:35] <ikevin> Photon, it's just to see if your computer is freezed
[12:35] <ikevin> do a ctrl+shift+f2
[12:36] <ikevin> you will have another terminal, when your on, type "ps aux | grep dpkg" to see if dpkg do anything
[12:37] <Photon> ctrl+shift+f2 not working
[12:37] <Photon> You thinking I need to reboot ikevin
[12:38] <ikevin> Photon, you can do a ctrl+c to cancel apt
[12:38] <ducasse> Photon: ctrl+alt+f2
[12:38] <ikevin> ducasse, oh thx, i've not see my mistake :x
[12:38] <ducasse> Photon: alt+f7 to get back to x

[12:50] <vlt> Hello. I have a pc "3.2.0-105-generic #146" from Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Its cpu has no "pae" flag.  What kernel version do I need on Ubuntu 16.04 to boot this pc?  It refuses to do so now with: "This kernel requires ... pae. Unable to boot – please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU."
[12:50] <vlt> *pc that runs ...
[12:51] <ikevin> Photon, try ctrl + z
[12:51] <k1l> vlt: i think only the Lubuntu iso does support non PAE setups
[12:52] <ioria> vlt you can try forcepae -- forcepae  flag, but not sure it works
[12:52] <vlt> k1l: I don't need an iso. I'm booting this machine via PXE and can offer any kernel that is avaiable in the repos.
[12:53] <vlt> ioria: "forcepae" as kernel cmd line?
[12:53] <ioria> vlt yup
[12:53] <Photon> ikevin ctrl+z worked
[12:54] <Photon> What should I do next?
[12:54] <ikevin> Photon, ps aux | grep apt
[12:55] <ioria> vlt  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE
[12:56] <vlt> ioria: Thank you. I checked the current cmd line and "forcepae" is already there.  Does that mean that it won't work or that it might work when I _remove_ "forcepae"?
[12:57] <ioria> vlt  it's just forcepae or   (double)  forcepae -- forcepae  ?
[12:57] <k1l> forcepae is for old cpus, that support pae but dont show the cpu flag. like some older pentium4
[12:57] <Photon> https://i.imgur.com/9eTmMWZ.jpg ikevin
[12:58] <ikevin> Photon, it look like apt is working
[12:58] <vlt> k1l: Ah ok.
[12:58] <vlt> ioria: single now
[12:58] <ioria> vlt  try the double
[12:59] <Photon> So, what should I do next ikevin ?
[12:59] <vlt> ioria: I'll do.
[12:59] <ikevin> Photon, you can try to kill apt and restart it
[13:00] <ioria> vlt  what's your cpu ? pentium M ?
[13:00] <Photon> ok and back to resume or recovery mode again ikevin ?
[13:00] <ikevin> Photon, nop
[13:01] <ikevin> Photon, kill -9 23798
[13:02] <I-am-Groot> ducasse, I mean...Nautilus keeps freezing, greying out or crashing
[13:02] <ducasse> ikevin: try with -TERM first
[13:03] <vlt> ioria: Tried double, tried w/o forcepae => no difference. CPU is "Transmeta(tm) Crusoe(tm) Processor TM5800": http://termbin.com/d092
[13:04] <ducasse> I-am-Groot: what does 'apt policy nautilus say'?
[13:04] <Zenom> ikevin, I rebooted but showing me this again https://ghostbin.com/paste/d3y7h
[13:04] <ducasse> I-am-Groot: what does 'apt policy nautilus' say, sorry?
[13:05] <ikevin> Zenom, you need to be in recovery until your system is repaired
[13:05] <Zenom> Ok I'll back to recovery again
[13:05] <ikevin> Zenom, or use recovery to repaire sudo then reboot in normal mode
[13:06] <ksbalaji> how to get jack sound server working in ubuntu 16.04 please?
[13:07] <ioria> vlt  you don't have pae flag ... and you want to boot what kernel ? the xenial one ?
[13:07] <I-am-Groot> ducasse, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24188454/
[13:07] <vlt> ioria: Yes, is there an alternative kernel in xenial's repos that will run on non-pae CPUs?
[13:08] <Delvien> y
[13:08] <Photon> Ok ikevin I'm in recovery mode again
[13:08] <ioria> vlt  id think so... neither lubuntu (stops at 12)... you need to fake-flag i guess

[13:10] <ioria> vlt   check out the second part 'Upgrading'
[13:11] <ducasse> I-am-Groot: ok, so the installed version is correct. can you try logging in as guest user and see how nautilus behaves then?
[13:11] <KaiForce> I have a VM running 15.04, and do-release-upgrade says I can't move from whatever version this is to whatever is current.  Do I need to install a new machine to update this?
[13:11] <ioria> vlt   you install linux-image-generic-pae  and you pretend to add the 'pae' flag to the cpu
[13:12] <I-am-Groot> ducasse, Sure
[13:13] <ducasse> !eolupgrade | KaiForce
[13:13] <ksbalaji> kil , thanks - also for solving my repository server problem for which I sought help here. It is cool.
[13:14] <Photon> ikevin https://i.imgur.com/RcSEYEW.jpg
[13:14] <KaiForce> ducasse: thanks...  I wonder if I'd be better of with a fresh install.
[13:14] <k1l> KaiForce: you waited way too long. so now you are in a messed up situation. you need to run now once (!) the sepcial upgrade "sudo do-release-upgrade -d" to get to the EOL 15.10. from there on you can upgrade with the regular upgrade to the 1.04
[13:14] <k1l> KaiForce: imho, a fresh isntall of 16.04 will be faster.
[13:14] <ikevin> Photon, do the "dpkg --configure -a" and when it's finished, do the apt-get install --reinstall sudo
[13:15] <akis> or can i purge the newest (current) version and install the previous?
[13:15] <KaiForce> k11:  ok, thanks.  Not a big deal, this machine is basically a utility machine, I can install a fresh VM and restore my configs/etc pretty easily.
[13:17] <Photon> ikevin it says dpkg: error: unable to access dpkg status area: Read-only file system
[13:17] <ikevin> Photon, mount -o remount,rw /
[13:18] <I-am-Groot> ducasse, It seemed snappier on guest than it is in my current account
[13:21] <Photon> https://i.imgur.com/roxYvRY.jpg ikevin
[13:22] <ikevin> Photon, you need to reconnect to network : dhclient enp3s0 && echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf
[13:23] <ikevin> Photon, i need to go to the market, i'll be back in few minuts
[13:24] <Photon> ok ikevin I'll waiting for you thanks for leting me know
[13:24] <ikevin> ok
[13:24] <I-am-Groot1> ducasse, It seemed snappier on guest than it is in my current account
[13:25] <I-am-Groot1> Seems like i lost connection
[13:25] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[13:25] <raddy> How to do initdb in postgresql in xenial?
[13:26] <ducasse> I-am-Groot1: ok, then it could be something in your settings that causes this, but i use neither unity nor nautilus, and don't know how to reset them. i'm sure someone else can help with that.
[13:28] <I-am-Groot1> ducasse, Thanks, and there is also this problem...where all applications fail to detect Internet connectivity from my usb modem after i have disconnected and reconnected it.
[13:28] <I-am-Groot1> The only thing that seems to work is a reboot or restart network manager
[13:29] <raddy> I have mistakenly deleted datadir
[13:29] <raddy> Now i have to recreate it.
[13:29] <raddy> Please suggest
[13:29] <raddy> How do i run initdb in postgresql in ubuntu
[13:31] <raddy> got it
[13:32] <vlt> ioria: I have read the help about PAE/PentiumM.  I don't understand a few things: There doesn't seem to be a "linux-image-generic-pae" package available in the xenial repositories (and why would I want that for a non-pae CPU?) and then: Why would I fake a pae flag and how if the kernel isn't running?
[13:32] <ioria> vlt   you install "linux-image-generic-pae" on you system  ....
[13:33] <vlt> ioria: Unfortunately I can't find this pkg.
[13:33] <ioria>  !info linux-image-generic-pae precise
[13:33] <ioria> vlt   you are on precise now, right ?
[13:34] <vlt> ioria: No (and yes). The pc is able to a 12.04 kernel.
[13:34] <vlt> *to boot
[13:35] <vlt> ioria: Ok, if I installed the -pae kernel on 12.04, what happens then?
[13:35] <ioria> vlt   then you 'edit' the /proc/cpuinfo as in the link above
[13:36] <vlt> ioria: Ok, and then? (And why would I do that?)
[13:36] <ioria> vlt   then you  you try to boot the xenial kernel
[13:37] <vlt> o_O
[13:37] <ioria> vlt  becasue, in this way, the new kern would think that you have the pae flag
[13:37] <vlt> Can someone, please, confirm that?
[13:37] <ioria> vlt  have you read this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE/PentiumM ?
[13:37] <lotuspsychje> !pae | vlt
[13:37] <vlt> ioria: Yes.
[13:39] <ioria> vlt   i did on a pentium M , idk for sure if 'll work on Transmeta(tm) Crusoe(tm) Processor
[13:41] <vlt> lotuspsychje: How would altering /proc/cpuinfo while running on a kernel that is working change the behaviour of a kernel booted later that refuses to boot a non-pae CPU?

[14:09] <InvisibleRasta> hello guys, i jsut installed ubuntu 16.04 and now i want to remove unity. I alredy installed mate
[14:09] <InvisibleRasta> how can i do this safely?
[14:10] <ppf> InvisibleRasta: of course
[14:10] <InvisibleRasta> if i remove unity will i also loose the login manager?
[14:10] <ppf> no
[14:10] <ehsan> ikevin it recognized my Network controller az Qualcom Atheros AR9485
[14:10] <ehsan> like when I wrote lshw -c network
[14:10] <lotuspsychje> InvisibleRasta: why dont you just install ubuntu mate vanilla?
[14:11] <ehsan> it knows both ethernet and wireless but said they are unclaimed
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> ehsan: chipset?
[14:11] <InvisibleRasta> lotus waht is ubuntu mate vanilla?
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> !mate | InvisibleRasta
[14:12] <ehsan> lotuspsychje Qualcomm Atheros AR9485
[14:12] <InvisibleRasta> ppf, what command do i have to run to remove unity
[14:12] <lotuspsychje> InvisibleRasta: i just mean, if you like mate, why not install it clean right away?
[14:12] <ducasse> InvisibleRasta: he means just use the ubuntu mate installer, but you probably want to keep your stuff?
[14:12] <ppf> InvisibleRasta: sudo apt remove unity8
[14:12] <ppf> !info unity
[14:13] <ppf> or just unity, maybe
[14:13] <InvisibleRasta> unity8 package doesnt work
[14:13] <InvisibleRasta> exist
[14:14] <k1l> unity8 is a different thing. that is the new unity still in development
[14:14] <ehsan> can I download Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 package drivers copy it on a stick memory and install or compile it in the other system ?
[14:14] <ppf> k1l: you're right, it was the first unity package that i came across from an apt search :)
[14:14] <lotuspsychje> ehsan: the problem might be you could not update during setup process?
[14:15] <lotuspsychje> ehsan: was your iso a 14.04 or 14.04.5?
[14:15] <ehsan> dude I have no internet not by wireless nor ethernet
[14:15] <ehsan> xubuntu 14.04
[14:15] <k1l> InvisibleRasta: the ubuntu package for mate should depend on a *dm. i dont know which dm mate favours but you can look afterwards what dm package is installed and install the lightdm or others if you want
[14:16] <ubuntu> hi
[14:17] <Guest47558> Hi
[14:17] <lotuspsychje> ehsan: i would try to get a 14.04.5 or perhaps loan some plugnplay usb wifi from someone thats gets recognized to be able to update
[14:17] <PCatinean> Can someone help me setup my dns records in order to make an email account work?
[14:17] <Guest47558> I have an issue with GNOME ubuntu where my workspace grid on my bottom panel is not displaying properly
[14:17] <Guest47558> is there an easy way to reset it ?
[14:17] <lotuspsychje> Guest47558: the #ubuntu-gnome channel might know that one
[14:20] <lotuspsychje> ehsan: both chipsets are atheros, or do you have broadcom also?
[14:20] <ppf> actually anything not qualcomm will do
[14:24] <k1l> ehsan: does "rfkill list" show some blocked yes?
[14:25] <ubuntu-mate> After updating to 16.10 network stopped working. I tried to restart PC, restart network, edit configuration file but it didn't help.
[14:26] <BluesKaj> ubuntu-mate, ethernet?
[14:26] <lotuspsychje> ubuntu-mate: update hold a kernel update or network-manager new version?
[14:27] <ehsan> kIl: nothing happend
[14:27] <ubuntu-mate> Yes. I'm using DSL.
[14:28] <BluesKaj> ubuntu-mate, if it's an ethernet connection, sudo dhclient
[14:28] <ubuntu-mate> I have no idea. I tried to reinstall network manager and it didn't help.
[14:29] <lotuspsychje> !info network-manager
[14:29] <BluesKaj> sudo dhclient , in the terminal , ubuntu-mate
[14:29] <ubuntu-mate> Without any options?
[14:29] <BluesKaj> no options
[14:31] <lotuspsychje> ehsan: was the other chipset also atheros?
[14:31] <BluesKaj> ubuntu-mate, now try a browser
[14:32] <ehsan> lotuspsychje: no just wireless
[14:32] <lotuspsychje> ehsan: no broadcom right?
[14:33] <k1l> ehsan: "rfkill list" does output nothing?
[14:33] <ehsan> yes no broadcom
[14:33] <k1l> ehsan: make sure you have the hardware switch no set to off. make sure its enabled in bios, too
[14:34] <Eightynine> Thank you. It helped. But it still shows a little cross on the network icon.
[14:34] <ehsan> kil: yes rfkill doesnt have any output
[14:35] <k1l> ehsan: that is very uncommon. so make sure the hardware switches are not set to off and its enabled in bios
[14:35] <ehsan> kil: it doesnt have any switch
[14:36] <lotuspsychje> ehsan: what kind of pc is this again?
[14:36] <ehsan> in bios network stack is enabled
[14:36] <k1l> ehsan: did it work on the ubuntu live usb?
[14:37] <ehsan> kil: no i did not whats ubuntu live usb
[14:37] <ehsan> you mean try ubuntu
[14:37] <k1l> ehsan: yes, the thing you installed that ubuntu with
[14:38] <ehsan> dear xubuntu 14.04 have install on this pc 1 year ago
[14:38] <k1l> and it worked before?
[14:38] <ehsan> I am sure if I install it again it works
[14:38] <ehsan> but I need it with its installed packages
 and it worked before?
[14:39] <ehsan> Yes it worked
[14:39] <k1l> so what did you do so it doesnt work anymore?
[14:39] <ehsan> I tried to install mysql
[14:39] <ehsan> during this it happend
[14:39] <lotuspsychje> ppa?
[14:39] <k1l> did you reboot since?
[14:40] <ehsan> yes several times I have reboot it
[14:40] <k1l> ehsan: can you reboot, and press left shift to get to grub menu and there choose an older kernel on advanced options?
[14:41] <ehsan> sure I try it now
[14:41] <nogger> hi all, i' m having difficulties compiling a program in ubuntu
[14:42] <lotuspsychje> !compile | nogger
[14:42] <nogger> for my class, i'm trying using eclipse and all my previous project compile regularely
[14:43] <ehsan> in advanced mode there are 7 options all like each other but are with "(recovery mode)"
[14:43] <ehsan> which one I have to choose
[14:43] <ehsan> ?
[14:43] <k1l> ehsan: there should be another older kernel in the grub menu.
[14:44] <nogger> this one throws an error make: ***[name of my project] error 127
[14:44] <k1l> ehsan: something like this: https://i.stack.imgur.com/Db5MK.png where you can chose the older kernels (without the recovery extension)
[14:45] <k1l> nogger: look at the log. he cant find something
[14:47] <ohcanada> hello. i was wondering what is going on with the 4.8.0.42.14 kernel for xenial, which appears to have been withdrawn. this is the second time in as many weeks, that an updated kernel has been offered, thru the usual channels and then silently withdrawn with no explanation
[14:48] <nacc> ohcanada: i believe it is being fixed as we speak -- that kernel was broken due to a packaging issue with another package (aiui)
[14:48] <FManTropyx> can I look at some log in order to try to find out what happened? I forcefully reset to regain control of PC
[14:49] <ohcanada> nacc: i see. best practice to sit tight with the new (but broken) kernel, or revert?
[14:49] <nacc> ohcanada: if you were able to update, it probably won't be broken -- and i think a newer version should replace it soonish (let me read more of the backlog elsewhere)
[14:52] <ehsan> thank you everybody spacially kil, loyuspsychje and ikevin
[14:52] <ehsan> I finally revoverd it by older versions
[14:52] <nacc> ohcanada: aiui, just like before, contentfully the kernel is fine, it's a dependency issue
[14:52] <ehsan> thank you
[14:53] <k1l> ehsan: make sure to run the updates "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" to get all bugfixes
[14:54] <ehsan> sure dear kil
[14:55] <mustmodify> I have an ubuntu machine that I SSH into to do dev work. But I never use the console (unless the machine is borked.) I assume the answer is no, but ... crazy question ... is there some way to get the machine to show a website and, if reset, to automatically come up with that website again after booting? I mean, either not logging in or automatically logging in as an isolated user?
[14:55] <nacc> mustmodify: "show a website"?
[14:56] <ohcanada> nacc: thanks squire. ok one more question. isn't stuff meant to go to 'proposed' and thus receive attention from the keen edgers before hitting the main repos?
[14:56] <k1l> mustmodify: show a website on ssh? or what do you mean?
[14:56] <mustmodify> nacc: yep. I'd like to pull up a dashboard with the status of my client's websites.
[14:56] <mustmodify> since I don't use that monitor.
[14:56] <mustmodify> Sorry, apparently I wasn't clear.
[14:57] <mustmodify> I have two machines.
[14:57] <mustmodify> pular and logopolis
[14:57] <nacc> ohcanada: yes, this is a case that 'technically' couldn't be caught with the tests as written
[14:57] <nacc> ohcanada: i think that will be resolved
[14:57] <mustmodify> I use pulsar.
[14:57] <mustmodify> From Pulsar, I ssh into logopolis to do dev work.
[14:57] <mustmodify> but I don't use pulsar's keyboard or monitor except when Pulsar is borked.
[14:57] <nacc> ohcanada: it's a web of dependencies and when one version goes in dependent on another version, and the other version gets removed, the first has to be as well (or it becomes uninstallable)
[14:57] <nacc> ohcanada: that's my rough understanding
[14:57] <ohcanada> nacc: ok. good stuff
[14:58] <nacc> mustmodify: what does keyboards or monitors have to do with websites?
[14:58] <nacc> mustmodify: websites are hosted by a service (apache2 typically, or nginx) in ubuntu, it doesn't matter if the hosting system is headless or not
[14:59] <mustmodify> nacc: I don't want to *host* a website.
[14:59] <mustmodify> I want one to be displayed on the unused monitor automatically.
[15:00] <ohcanada> well, i think i'll leave you chaps to it. toodlepip
[15:01] <mustmodify> I assume that isn't feasible / secure, though. So nm. Just thinking out loud.
[15:01] <k1l> mustmodify: well, you can set a browser to be run fullscreen on that xserver
[15:03] <KSC> hi
[15:03] <KSC> He!
[15:03] <KSC> hey!
[15:03] <KSC> *
[15:05] <mustmodify> k1l: sometimes the keyboard isn't plugged in or whatever, so I was wondering if there was a way to set up the machine to boot and then bring up the page without any user action.
[15:05] <k1l> mustmodify: yes
[15:07] <k1l> mustmodify: some might call that "kiosk" system.
[15:09] <mustmodify> Oh... yeah... a kiosk ... perfect. Can't believe I didn't think of googling that. Thanks.
[15:09] <k1l> mustmodify: something like this https://www.danpurdy.co.uk/web-development/raspberry-pi-kiosk-screen-tutorial/
[15:15] <FManTropyx> how common is it for Ubuntu to just totally freeze up?

[15:16] <ikevin> FManTropyx, it depend of a lot of things
[15:17] <Cyber_Akuma> I noticed that even modern versions of Ubuntu seem to have issues with corruption now and then with writing to NTFS partitions. Any suggestions what would be the best setup if I wanted to dualboot Windows/Ubuntu and create a storage partition to share between them? Fat32 is out due to video editing and thus needing large file support
[15:17] <BluesKaj> ntfs works for both
[15:18] <FManTropyx> how can I make the mouse slower? there is no graphical setting for that
[15:18] <Cyber_Akuma> I have had several ntfs partitions corrupt when I performed write operatins on them under linux
[15:18] <FManTropyx> I suspect Firefox was behind the problem I just experienced
[15:18] <nacc> Cyber_Akuma: i would be surprised if they corrupted due to the writes; perhaps incorrect umounting
[15:19] <nacc> FManTropyx: "mouse speed"?
[15:19] <Cyber_Akuma> Is exfat an option?
[15:20] <BluesKaj> Cyber_Akuma, and install ext2fsd on windows to access your linux partitions and data, if needed
[15:20] <FManTropyx> heh, I thought mouse speed was a bit funny way of expressing it, but I mean the distance traveled by the mouse pointer relative to a certain amount of physical mouse movement :)
[15:20] <guest12435> hi can someone assist with my gnome issue my workspaces at the bottom are not working properly have tried tweak tool and preferences
[15:21] <nacc> FManTropyx: yes, i know, the setting is called "mouse speed", i think?
[15:21] <FManTropyx> alas, I did not find the mouse speed setting
[15:21] <FManTropyx> I looked, where the acceleration thing is (I have xfce)
[15:21] <nacc> FManTropyx: settings -> mouse & touchpad here (gnome ubuntu)
[15:21] <nacc> FManTropyx: ah i don't know where/if xubuntu exposes it
[15:23] <FManTropyx> ok, thank you, maybe I'll try to ##xfce later and perhaps I will install just normal Ubuntu - this distro is in fact Ubuntu Studio

[15:52] <skinux> I've about 30G of free disk space, is that a good amount for trying to download and install MATE or another good light-weight DE?

[15:52] <skinux> Right now I use Unity with the panel moved to horizontal at the bottom.
[15:53] <skinux> I'm trying to figure out why my machine can't handle running a VM without being laggy these days. When I first bought it, it could handle a VM, but now it seems it can hardly handle a headless VM.
[15:53] <Cyber_Akuma> Hmm, that seems to mostly just tell you how to edit grub to boot into windows :(
[15:53] <AndChat|512129> I'm trying to mount a disk with the Disk app, but Edit Mount Options is not available.
[15:55] <sipior> Cyber_Akuma: you booting via {u}efi?
[15:56] <Cyber_Akuma> I don't think the system supports uefi, it's a core 2 duo system
[15:57] <sipior> Cyber_Akuma: probably efi 1.1 or something

[16:00] <sipior> Lavinho: you're looking for the "icedtea-plugin" package
[16:00] <Lavinho> yes i installed
[16:00] <Lavinho> but no function
[16:01] <Southern_Gentlem> Lavinho,  what version of firefox
[16:01] <Lavinho> 52.0
[16:01] <sipior> hmm. good point. does ff52 break icedtea?
[16:01] <Southern_Gentlem> firefox is blocking java
[16:01] <Southern_Gentlem> google for how to open that up
[16:02] <Southern_Gentlem> https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Fix-slowness-crashing-error/How-to-allow-Java-on-trusted-sites/ta-p/6206#firefox:win7:fx51&mobile:android:m50&ios:web:&firefox-os:linux:fxos2.0&thunderbird:linux:tb45
[16:03] <sipior> Southern_Gentlem: i hope it's not an NPAPI plugin
[16:03] <Lavinho> no appear
[16:04] <OerHeks> Lavinho, icetea firefox is a debian name
[16:04] <OerHeks> we just have firefox
[16:04] <sipior> OerHeks: i think you're thinking of "iceweasel"
[16:05] <Dworf> hi, how this scenario would be possible: I have ubuntu server with openvpn, i can connect it from wan ip. if i want to reroute the ubuntu to another vpn (some vpn service) can i connect it from outside? so it would be phone->openvpn->vpnservice->internet?
[16:05] <sipior> ah no, they've changed it to "icecat" now.
[16:05] <Dworf> so that i could use my already paid vpn service from outside of my house
[16:06] <OerHeks> uhhh.. oops, you are correct
[16:07] <OerHeks> b.t.w. firefox 52 breaks a lot of stuff, alsa
[16:07] <OerHeks> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/03/firefox-52-no-sound-pulseaudio-alsa-linux
[16:07] <Lavinho> where is the solution ?
[16:09] <sipior> Lavinho: i think you need to use the "Extended Support Release" of firefox
[16:09] <sipior> Lavinho: i think the icedtea plugin in npapi-based, and will not work on firefox 52.
[16:09] <denNorske> I opened a browser too , can't open that specific webpage from my ubuntu.
[16:10] <denNorske> DNS is resolved, but stops there
[16:11] <OerHeks> sipior +1 https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Problems-with-add-ons-plugins-or/Why-do-Java-Silverlight-Adobe-Acrobat-and-other-plugins-no/ta-p/31069
[16:11] <Lavinho> thank you
[16:12] <OerHeks> I think it is a good thing, dropping support java flash and silverlight
[16:13] <ddoobb> So I have two USBs, one automounts on inserting, the other doesn't. I'm trying to see why. Any ideas?
[16:13] <sipior> denNorske: is the host itself reachable?
[16:14] <Southern_Gentlem> ddoobb, put the second in does fdisk -l see it ?
[16:14] <ChadTaljaardt> does anyone know why im getting this error E: Unable to locate package update-alternatives
[16:15] <ddoobb> Southern_Gentlem: Yes it's there, lsblk sees it too. Just doesn't automount it. Manual mounting works like it should.
[16:16] <Lavinho> not funtion
[16:16] <ddoobb> Problem USB has a GUID partition table, One EFI partition with boot flag, if that helps.
[16:16] <Lavinho> function
[16:16] <sipior> ChadTaljaardt: update-alternatives is a command, not a package
[16:16] <sipior> ChadTaljaardt: comes with dpkg, i believe
[16:16] <denNorske> sipior: yes
[16:17] <sipior> denNorske: does "telnet <hostname> 80" connect to anything?
[16:17] <nacc> sipior: yes, from dpkg
[16:17] <sipior> (or whatever port the service is running on)
[16:17] <ChadTaljaardt> im following this http://askubuntu.com/questions/26498/choose-gcc-and-g-version
[16:17] <denNorske> give me a sec
[16:17] <ChadTaljaardt> and i cant run the first command
[16:17] <ddoobb> I just made this USB into a liveusb with Unetbootin, so that may have something to d with it?
[16:17] <nacc> ChadTaljaardt: that seems very unlikely on Ubuntu. What version?
[16:18] <denNorske> sipior: Trying [ip]...
[16:18] <ChadTaljaardt> nacc 16.10
[16:18] <denNorske> so no response at all, it seems
[16:18] <nacc> ChadTaljaardt: please use a pastebin and write the exact command you ran and output
[16:18] <sipior> denNorske: you probably have a firewall dropping that connection
[16:18] <denNorske> I thought so too, but in so case where
[16:18] <denNorske> I don't have IPtables enabled
[16:18] <ChadTaljaardt> nacc  https://gist.github.com/ChadTaljaardt/33075f04f3bfab68e442983c8f376241
[16:19] <nacc> ChadTaljaardt: you ran the command fine
[16:19] <nacc> ChadTaljaardt: but there are no alternatives to change
[16:19] <nacc> ChadTaljaardt: you have to have multiple gcc installed before you can do anything with alternatives
[16:19] <ChadTaljaardt> ahh okay
[16:19] <ChadTaljaardt> i understand haha
[16:19] <pvl1> is there a netboot live for booting using http/pxe
[16:19] <pvl1> for uefi
[16:20] <nacc> ChadTaljaardt: which is quite literally the first command and output from that page
[16:23] <denNorske> sipior: Can't find any firewall related settings that would do that
[16:23] <denNorske> sipior: I can Ping it
[16:23] <ddoobb> What is the best filesystem to use for liveUSBs?
[16:24] <sipior> denNorske: i imagine someone else is running the firewall. is this all your own network?
[16:24] <qwebirc941182> is there anyway to Stop Ubuntu from running this during an automated install "finish-install: info: Running /usr/lib/finish-install.d/50config-target-network"
[16:24] <qwebirc941182> i find that it overwrites my /etc/network/interfaces
[16:25] <denNorske> sipior: Ping wouldn't be possible then (if blocked), and yes
[16:26] <sipior> denNorske: why wouldn't it be possible? you can surely block tcp/80 without blocking icmp.
[16:26] <Name> Hello. I installed Ubuntu with password and I choose to "Encrypt home with password". For reasons (don't go into it), I decide to delete this account and start new one. The new one, has new password. Will new account's home be encrypted using it's own password, or the password from 1st account?
[16:26] <denNorske> True, I'll have a look at the network setup sipior , thanks
[16:26] <sipior> denNorske: good luck
[16:28] <ppf> Name: using its own password, of course
[16:29] <Name> ppf: Just making sure :p, my password got compromised, need "safer" place to secure my data, so I decided for new account. Are you sure?
[16:29] <denNorske> Name: wouldn't quite make sense if not
[16:29] <denNorske> :)

[16:59] <dnsly> hi
[16:59] <dnsly> is there a nice and quick command to flush the system dns cache?
[17:00] <dnsly> equivalent to ipconfig /flushdns on windows cmd?
[17:00] <ppf> nacc: ah, alright
[17:00] <ppf> sometimes it is annoying not to see parts and joins
[17:01] <nacc> ppf: :)
[17:01] <pvl1> dnsly: afaik, ubuntu doesnt cache dns unless you install a cache
[17:03] <dnsly> pvl1: so it is the DNS resolver that is used
[17:03] <dnsly> I see
[17:03] <dnsly> it doesn't know yet of the new IP
[17:03] <dnsly> but I don't want to use Google public DNS on production because of rate limits, etc

[17:07] <dnsly> the domain transfer was just some hours ago
[17:07] <ppf> dnsly: then you need to call them or just wait it out

[17:08] <arya__> hi, I am getting the Ubuntu software updater pop message to update the current applications and softwares I use. when i click install now

[17:09] <arya__> this is been hapenning since quite a while
[17:09] <arya__> how should i download and install updates?
[17:09] <ppf> arya__: your disk is full
[17:09] <ppf> delete old stuff or get a bigger disk
[17:10] <pvl1> dnsly: you probably cant get around rate limits. its unusual for dns rate limits. unless you're using ddns
[17:10] <arya__> ppf: how should i decide what is old and what should i delete?
[17:11] <ppf> arya__: how would anyone of us know which of your data is old??
[17:11] <arya__> :D
[17:11] <arya__> good one!
[17:12] <ppf> you can run a sudo apt autoremove to uninstall old an unneeded packages
[17:12] <ppf> but that won't get you far

[17:25] <technocf> Hello, does anybody have any idea about creating a bootable Windows XP usb using Ubuntu.
[17:26] <pvl1> technocf: pm me
[17:26] <Mathisen> technocf, dd should work for xp , dd does not work on new win version but for xp it should
[17:27] <Mathisen> technocf, sudo dd if=windows.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M; sync
[17:29] <technocf> Mathisen: i tried that but then it just doesn't boot from it.
[17:30] <Mathisen> technocf, okej i guess  "winusb" is the thing you want then
[17:30] <technocf> Didnt work either, after using that it just takes me to a grub prompt when i try to boot from the usb
[17:31] <Mathisen> ... :( manual way then.. gparted make partition, flag for boot copy .iso content over
[17:32] <technocf> Trying that now
[17:32] <Mathisen> make it fat32

[18:37] <As4xk> Hi. I used "apt upgrade" instead of "apt-get upgrade". During this there was a conflict in some configuration file but apt would not let me see which file. It just showed the "choose [Y/N/O/D/..]" question. (looked like apt only showed one line at a time of the output from apt-get. So I hit ctrl-c to stop it.
[18:37] <As4xk> After that nginx can not be configured. I tried apt-get --force-yes remove nginx libnginx-... and all nginx related things. Also tried with apt-get purge with all nginx related packages. After removing or purging i do apt-get autoremove and autoclean and clean and finally "sudo dpkg --configure -a". Then I do "apt-get install nginx-full".
[18:38] <As4xk> Then I get this output: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24190343/
[18:39] <As4xk> Could anyone help me "reset" nginx package, or point me in the direction of some log files that could tell we what is wrong?
[18:39] <As4xk> If relevant: I'm on Ubuntu 14.04.5
[18:40] <As4xk> And i use "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/nginx/stable/ubuntu trusty main" as APT repo for nginx

[19:06] <crised> This may be hard to describe problem, but I'm running Ubuntu 16.04, but I get intermittent lags on my internet connection (and internet connection is not the problem). How can I debug this? ping times looks ok? I'm using fixed IPv4...
[19:06] <crised> May it be something wrong with the drivers? These issue started 2 weeks ago approximately
[19:07] <crised> using ethernet
[19:10] <pavlos> crised, there is ntop, tool for network monitoring
[19:11] <crised> anybody?

[19:13] <Epx998> crised: youre getting lag locally, how did you determine it was not your internet connection?
[19:13] <legortied> hey my ubuntu keeps on getting stuck? And it freezes often??????????
[19:13] <legortied> nacc: what can i do
[19:13] <Delvien> I doubt its a software issue, thats a very slim possibility
[19:13] <legortied> I have hp core i5 with nvidida driver?
[19:13] <Delvien> ^ was to crised
[19:13] <CodeMouse92__> legortied: What version of Ubuntu?
[19:14] <Epx998> legortied: try running top and see what is causing your lag.
[19:14] <legortied> CodeMouse92__: xenial
[19:14] <CodeMouse92__> legortied: Also, are you by some chance running Chromium/Chrome when the lags/freezes happen?
[19:14] <legortied> Epx998: which memory do I see? No I usefirefox

[19:14] <legortied> but even when I play the flightgear heavy duty game it does stuck a lot
[19:15] <legortied> and many other peopel do face the same problem on heavy gaming in particular like apt install flightgear
[19:15] <Delvien> is that a windows game?
[19:16] <CodeMouse92__> legortied: How much RAM do you have in your machine?
[19:16] <CodeMouse92__> legortied: Also, do you usually only have this problems when running games?
[19:16] <legortied> 8GB that is not as problem
[19:16] <legortied> no it does freeze randomly do
[19:16] <CodeMouse92__> legortied: You would be surprised how much memory a game takes up. I've got a 12GB machine that gets laggy on Minecraft at times. :P
[19:16] <legortied> I use the default driver no idea which one
[19:17] <mahakal> Guys i am working on unix domain socket programming..Is there any way to manipulate/analyse the content of the socket files ?
[19:17] <legortied> use x.org X server noveau display driver
[19:17] <legortied> i saw it in softwares and updates?
[19:18] <legortied> CodeMouse92__: no it  works fine on manjaro
[19:18] <Delvien> legortied: thats probably the reason. Nouveau is the open source driver, the proprietary will run 3d apps better
[19:18] <legortied> for some reason it NEVER freezes
[19:18] <legortied> Delvien: but it's the default setting?
[19:19] <Epx998> isnt there an nvidia driver that is available?
[19:22] <legortied> Epx998: there is
[19:22] <legortied> but why does it happen only to me , as others too leave it in their default mode?

[19:34] <ddoobb> Has Ubuntu gotten heavier compared to say, 12.04? I remember I could run a liveUSB on my old laptop and it was always snappy. Now it's hanging heavily every 2-3 minutes.
[19:38] <OnceMe> ssh-keyscan host returns nothing and no known_hosts has been generated, how to preadd fingerprint?

[19:45] <Pinkamena_D> really strange question here: something on my laptop keeps creating the file /var/run/do-not-hibernate (ubuntu 14.04 LTS) I use hibernation quite frequently in my work. I have found if I just remove this file and hibernate after, hibernation works fine. How can I prevent this file from being created, and also how can I know if I am messing something up by deleting it?
[19:47] <ppf> Pinkamena_D: i think the file gets created when you install a kernel upgrade
[19:47] <Ben64> from google - "aborts the hibernate/sleep if the kernel has been upgraded (checks for /var/run/do-not-hibernate)"
[19:47] <Pinkamena_D> this is happening every one or two days - I would think this is too quick for that update?
[19:47] <Pinkamena_D> If that is the case, can I turn off the automatic update?
[19:48] <Ben64> don't turn off updates, just reboot after doing a kernel upgrade
[19:48] <Pinkamena_D> rebooting that often is quite a detriment - I keep a lot of stuff running
[19:49] <Ben64> ok
[19:52] <ioria> Pinkamena_D, don't you have a pm-hibernate log or pm-suspend log in /var/log ?
[19:52] <Pinkamena_D> I am sure I do
[19:59] <mikeymop> is anyone using dekko for mail?

[20:06] <Hans-Martin> hi folks, I'm trying to sync music to my android phone using rhythmbox - but rythmbox does not recognize the phone, even though nautilus has no problems showing its contents. Most posts on the web deal with connecting a phone to ubuntu in the first place, but that's not my problem :-(
[20:06] <ppf> crised: until the next reboot
[20:07] <aotaointbin> can't you just copy it using nautilus then?
[20:07] <crised> ppf: I want to disable it forever, I'm not using that built in interface
[20:07] <Ben64> crised: if you're not using it, what is the problem?
[20:08] <pavlos> crised, ip link set down eth0
[20:08] <crised> Ben64: network is intermittent, and I feel that is caused because it starts to look network on an interface that isn't connected
[20:08] <crised> pavlos: will that prevail?
[20:08] <Ben64> crised: nope
[20:08] <Ben64> that's not how it works
[20:09] <crised> Ben64: what's causing my intermittence?
[20:09] <Hans-Martin> aotaointbin: sure I can, I was hoping that rhythmbox would deal with tags and folder structure in a more intelligent way...
[20:09] <Ben64> impossible to tell with the information provided
[20:09] <crised> Ben64: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6bb1b2ea06f5ae9b448480850fac6774
[20:10] <crised> enp4s0 is the IPv4 link that I use
[20:10] <boriseto> Where can I reset the network manager with all the saved networks inside? Like delete all the config or whatever it has so it could recreate it by itself?
[20:10] <Ben64> looks like you plugged in an ethernet to enp4s0
[20:11] <crised> Ben64: so it's the cable?
[20:11] <Ben64> it might b e
[20:12] <mikeymop> genii: ty
[20:13] <mikeymop> Hans-Martin: do you have file transfer enabled in the usb connection settings?
[20:13] <Hans-Martin> mikeymop: yup, mtp
[20:14] <crised> Ben64: I wan't able to ping 8.8.8.8 for a few seconds
[20:14] <Hans-Martin> mikeymop: as I said, it shows nicely in nautilus, just rhythmbox does not recognize it
[20:14] <crised> Ben64: you see, it also got disconnected from freenode... I think it's not the cable
[20:14] <Ben64> crised: yep, try a new cable, try a new <device your computer connects to>
[20:14] <Ben64> crised: a bad cable could definitely cause that

[20:17] <MasterChicken> When I enable Ubuntu Desktop Sharing through the cool Ubuntu application, is that equivalent to setting up a VNC server?
[20:17] <ioria> MasterChicken, that is vino, yes
[20:20] <MasterChicken> ioria, what is vino?
[20:21] <ioria> MasterChicken, default ubuntu vnc server
[20:21] <ioria> !info vino | MasterChicken
[20:22] <MasterChicken> ioria, I can't seem to connect to this server from a realVNC viewer. It says downgrade the viewer or use lower encryption.. It is confusing. Any suggestions?
[20:22] <ioria> MasterChicken,    gsettings set org.gnome.Vino require-encryption false
[20:23] <MasterChicken> ioria, from the server or viewer?
[20:23] <ioria> MasterChicken,    the server
[20:24] <MasterChicken> ioria, how do you make the viewer use the correct encryption?
[20:24] <Ben64> get a good viewer
[20:24] <ioria> MasterChicken,   where are you connecting from ?
[20:25] <ioria> MasterChicken,  windows machine ?
[20:25] <MasterChicken> ioria, RaspberryPi
[20:26] <ioria> MasterChicken,  try vinagre from the client
[20:27] <MasterChicken> ioria, do you know the package for that?
[20:28] <ioria> !info vinagre
[20:28] <MasterChicken> ioria, Raspbian support GNOME?
[20:29] <ioria> MasterChicken,  idk
[20:34] <Hans-Martin> mikeymop: looks like libmtp is really bad at recognizing new(ish) devices as possible music players. I'll find another solution (some kind of file sync will work eventually)
[20:42] <Aurorasaura> Would anyone be able to help me with constantly getting a "transport endpoint is not connected" when using mhhdfs? I have read extensively on possible fixes and even downgraded but nothing seems to help. It happens once a day at least.
[20:43] <Aurorasaura> I did come across this though http://nramkumar.org/tech/blog/tag/mhddfs-the-transport-endpoint-is-not-connected/ but have no idea how to install the "patch"
[20:45] <Kali_Yuga> why does my script continue if I hit cancel? output after pressing cancel is always 0: dialog --title "test" --backtitle "tet" --stdout --inputbox "try Cancel" 7 40;clear;printf "$?"
[20:46] <Kali_Yuga> sorry why does my script continue if I hit cancel? output after pressing cancel is always 0: dialog --title "test" --backtitle "test" --stdout --inputbox "try Cancel" 7 40;clear;printf "$?"
[20:47] <OerHeks> is there a connection in "try cancel" and pressing cancel = valid?
[20:47] <Kali_Yuga> how to tell the inputbox to actually cancel if cancel is pressed
[20:48] <Kali_Yuga> OerHeks: I don't think so I just want to know how to tell it to actually cancel
[20:49] <Kali_Yuga> Try if it spits out a different value but it does not "Ok" & "Cancel" both spit out 0. If not I could continue with an if command
[20:50] <Kali_Yuga> statement*
[20:51] <nacc> Kali_Yuga: becuase printf is printing the return value from clear probably?
[20:51] <nacc> Kali_Yuga: don't try to be clever
[20:51] <gagly> Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins  how can i specify a wildcard here so that these can be fetched from my private repos ?
[20:53] <Kali_Yuga> nacc: OMG
[20:53] <Kali_Yuga> nacc: It actually spit out 1 OMG. clear no way
[20:54] <Kali_Yuga> thank you
[20:54] <nacc> Kali_Yuga: i have no idea what "clear no way" means, but you just made a simple shell programming error
[20:57] <ppf> what sort of script is that
[20:58] <nacc> ppf: `dialog` is a shell dialog command
[20:59] <ppf> !info dialog
[20:59] <ppf> that one?
[20:59] <nacc> ppf: yeah

[21:37] <gusgg_> What is this apt-get issue where it says there are dependencies, names them, and then says "they will not be installed".  I can then manually install them and things proceed as expected. e.g.:  libignition-transport2-dev : Depends: libignition-msgs-dev but it is not going to be installed
[21:39] <genii> gusgg_: This happens when you have external repositories like PPAs and there is a version of that dependency which is a mismatch to the one which is required by what you're trying to install
[21:42] <gusgg_> genii: does that mean that manually resolving the dependency is appearing to work but it's an illusion?
[21:45] <wad> I'm on a dual-boot laptop, and I can't change some stuff under Windows, because "IT department". The hardware clock is in my local timezone, and Windows expects it that way. But when I boot to Ubuntu, it shows the wrong time, because it expects the HW clock to be in UTC. I've several things, but have failed to make Ubuntu do what I want.
[21:46] <wad> I followed the instructions here, but after a reboot, still the wrong time: http://www.webupd8.org/2014/09/dual-boot-fix-time-differences-between.html
[21:46] <Bashing-om> wad: What release ? systemd ? then try as ' sudo timedatectl set-timezone UTC ' .
[21:47] <wad> 16.04 LTS, 64-bit desktop.
[21:47] <dax> it's sudo timedatectl set-local-rtc 1, actually
[21:47] <dax> assuming you actually want both OSes to show the correct local time
[21:48] <wad> Good assumpton. ;)
[21:51] <wad> So I've set the timezone to MDT (UTC-6), and the hardware close to the current time in MDT. This makes Windows happy. But timedatectl shows local=9:50 am (incorrect), universal=15:50 pm (incorrect), RTC = 9:50 AM (not sure what this is)
[21:52] <wad> I wish there were some way to tell the OS which timezone the HW clock is in.
[21:52] <wad> Then I could tell it what timezone I want it to display times as.
[21:52] <wad> (Since I'm making wishes, can I wish that Microsoft would stop making operating systems? Pretty please??)
[21:53] <wad> Doing "timedatectl set-local-rtc 1" doesn't change my clock.
[21:54] <wad> It does make RTC be correct, in the output of timedatectl.
[21:54] <wad> What is RTC anyway?
[21:54] <gimpy0455> How do I get sudo to not use networking at all?  when I try to sudo with a bad DNS setting (because crappy VPN) it hangs fora while before prompting for password
[21:55] <Bashing-om> wad: How about ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure ntp ' to set the system clock ??
[21:55] <nacc> wad: real-time clock
[21:55] <nacc> wad: typically a hardware device
[21:55] <wad> Ah. I wonder if this  laptop has one.
[21:56] <Jakeukalane> hello, do you know where I can ask about convert command? because I think maybe ubuntu irc is not the best place...  and if can ask here, tell me
[21:56] <ppf> !ask
[21:56] <wad> The RTC is correct, is there a way to make the clock that shows on the desktop pull time from that?
[21:56] <nacc> !alis | Jakeukalane
[22:00] <Jakeukalane> nacc, thanks, I hope those enormous outputs didn't reach the channel
[22:04] <infinitepooonfac> Hi
[22:05] <infinitepooonfac> Which screenshot tool is installed on Ubuntu?
[22:05] <dckx> hi guys, I need some help. I was following a guide to use bumblebee to switch between nvidia and intel GPU in Ubuntu16.04. At some point I restarted, and now keyboard and trackpad don work so I can log into ubuntu... Tried recovery, but sudo apt-get in terminal does not work because it can fetch packages... it seems there is an issue with DNS.  Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
[22:08] <xangua> infinitepooonfac: in vanilla Ubuntu, gnome screenshot
[22:08] <dckx> when I try to update packages it says "temporary failure resolving 'ppa.launchpad.net'"
[22:08] <infinitepooonfac> xangua ok thanks
[22:08] <dckx> when I try to ping google, it times out
[22:11] <OerHeks> dckx, what ppa exactly? bumblebee is depreciated, prime is current
[22:11] <pavlos> dckx, see if this helps ... echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf > /dev/null
[22:11] <vuphan> host irc.oftc.net
[22:11] <Finetundra> Hey folks, what's the best way to install oracle java?
[22:11] <OerHeks> !java | Finetundra see this guide:
[22:11] <dckx> pavlos: I tried that (found it somewhere) but didn't fix the problem. I will try again
[22:13] <dckx> OerHeks: I don't know exactly what you mean... when I do the apt-get update, manu ppas cannot be contacted... or I don't even know if they are ppas... it says 'linux.dropbox.com', 'archive.canonical.com', dl.google.com, packages.ros.org
[22:13] <dckx> etc
[22:13] <OerHeks> dckx, can you paste the output on paste.ubuntu.com ?
[22:13] <pavlos> dckx, can you ping 8.8.8.8 ? that's a google DNS
[22:15] <pavlos> dckx, also check /etc/apt/sources.list if you have conflicting ppa's
[22:16] <dckx> pavlos: I just did the echo nameserver, and trying to do apt-get update... but it is taking forever, has been in 0% for 2 or 3 minutes (before it just jumped through all the ppa's instantly
[22:17] <dckx> pavlos: ok, so now it is making progress, but it is failing to connect
[22:17] <dckx> pavlos: when it is done, I will ping 8.8.8.8
[22:17] <OerHeks> sounds like dead ppa's ..
[22:17] <dckx> OerHeks: I can't, I am in recovery mode
[22:17] <pavlos> dckx, you could do, apt clean then apt update
[22:17] <dckx> pavlos: but some of the repositories include us.archive.ubuntu.com, security.ubuntu.com...
[22:18] <dckx> pavlos: I think the problem is I don't have internet connection. I am in recovery mode, in terminal... I can't login into ubuntu because keyboard and mouse are dead
[22:19] <gimpy0455> when using alt+tab, is there any way to quick way to expand the "window group" or whatever it is called that you are on?  Such as if you want to switch between 2 firefox windows I have to tab through every other window and get back to firefox, wait a second, then it shows both firefox windows and I can select the one I want
[22:20] <pavlos> dckx, unplug/replug keyb/mouse see if that helps
[22:20] <dckx> pavlos: it is a laptop
[22:20] <pavlos> dckx, oh ... can you boot off a live cd usb?
[22:21] <hggdh> gimpy0455: Alt-`
[22:21] <dckx> pavlos: I have tried external usb keyboard and mouse... keyboard and mouse work in windows, also in console, and also in recovery mode... but do not work once ubuntu boots. Also, I read somewhere that it might be that xorg got damaged, which is why the update, clean, upgrade, etc should be done. I can try booting from livecd...
[22:21] <dckx> pavlos: on a side note, ping 8.8.8.8 is frozen
[22:22] <pavlos> dckx, sure, if you dont have net, ping wont work ... can you boot a previous kernel?
[22:22] <wedgie> gimpy0455: on unity it's alt+`
[22:22] <gimpy0455> hggdh: that'll work, thanks
[22:23] <dckx> pavlos: that is in advanced options? I have 4.8.0-41, 4.8.0-36, and 4.4.0-66... but none of them work
[22:24] <pavlos> dckx, I thought 4.8 is for 16.10 but 4.4 is 16.04 (might be wrong)
[22:24] <dckx> pavlos: I also have the upstart and recovery mode for each one of those kernels... I haven't tried all, but upstart doesn't boot, and the normal ones have all the same issue with kb and mouse
[22:25] <dckx> pavlos: this also may be important... when I am in recovery mode and go to "resumen normal boot", I get an error message (among many "OK" messages) that says: Failed to start Clean up any mess left by 0dns-up
[22:25] <OerHeks> pavlos, you can get kernel 4.8 on 16.04 with: sudo apt-get install –install-recommends xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04
[22:26] <dckx> and then booting stops... I i try to update packages via recovery mode (instead of terminal via recovery mode) I also get the error message that packagex cannot be fetched
[22:26] <pavlos> OerHeks, ty
[22:27] <OerHeks> pavlos, can you help him chroot from live iso?
[22:27] <pavlos> OerHeks, nope, I have to leave in 10 min
[22:28] <jazz_vibes> hey all, need help diagnosing why a kworker is stuck on 100% (also new to irc)
[22:28] <pavlos> dckx, the idea is to boot off a live CD, then mount your drive and other things, chroot into, and fix things
[22:28] <OerHeks> oh oke, dckx , follow this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery
[22:28] <OerHeks> or we walk you through it
[22:28] <pavlos> dckx, see guide from OerHeks
[22:29] <OerHeks> see the part update-failure, follow it step 1-7
[22:29] <dckx> OerHeks: perfect, I'll do that, thank you.
[22:29] <dckx> pavlos: I'll do that, thank you
[22:30] <OerHeks> with step 8, ( i hope you have wired networking) you can pastebin the output
[22:33] <OerHeks> dckx, sudo apt update | nc termbin.com 9999
[22:37] <jazz_vibes> i've run perf here is the output http://pastebin.com/pDpy4E5R
[22:38] <dckx> OerHeks: this is embarassing, but this thing keeps saying incorrect login
[22:39] <dckx> OerHeks: my login is "Juan Pablo Ugarte"... could it have to do with the spaces? or what?
[22:40] <xz> hi there, I want to create customized live USB distro off 16.04.01
[22:40] <xz> 16.04.02 it is
[22:40] <xz> I need only to add couple of files and install 2 packages
[22:41] <OerHeks> dckx, possibly .. not sure how to catch this;   Juan\ Pablo\ Ugarte    ??
[22:41] <xz> is there some script, that I can just fill in the blanks?
[22:41] <xz> all of the tutorials on the internet are very lenghty
[22:41] <xz> messing with /etc/hosts, resolv, etc.
[22:41] <OerHeks> xz there used to be a UCK, but that project is dead
[22:41] <OerHeks> !uck
[22:43] <xz> OerHeks: so what's out there instead of uck?
[22:43] <nedstark> opensuse has a website that lets you make a custom version of their distro pretty easily
[22:44] <infinitepooonfac> which website?
[22:44] <OerHeks> xz, there is cubic, but i never tried that myself > http://askubuntu.com/questions/741753/how-to-use-cubic-to-create-a-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-image
[22:45] <OerHeks> nedstark, indeed, for many years now
[22:45] <xz> OerHeks: I'm going to give it a go
[22:45] <dckx> OerHeks: since I am in livecd, username was 'ubuntu' and password was blank
[22:45] <nedstark> infinitepooonfac, https://susestudio.com/
[22:45] <OerHeks> xz let us know, if it works, maybe it can be a replacement for UCK
[22:46] <OerHeks> dckx, ohhh.. good find!
[22:46] <nedstark> i've had mixed results with builds, they seem to fail if you pick the wrong packages
[22:51] <xz> OerHeks: so far it does something it says it extracts the iso (which I think means it is unsquashfsing casper)
[22:51] <xz> OerHeks: and now I have chrooted console window, cool
[22:51] <xz> OerHeks: I can do stuff, or just hit 'next'
[22:52] <OerHeks> :-)
[22:52] <Scarybaby> sup ya'll. I just built a apache webserver. Can anyone suggest the best application to edit the web files on the server?
[22:52] <Scarybaby> I'm using mobaterm, but it's hard to navigate around
[22:53] <elias_a> Scarybaby: What about emacs? :)
[22:53] <xz> OerHeks: the problem is, in that chrooted shell, 'apt-cache search python-pip' returns no results
[22:53] <xz> OerHeks: I cannot install pip!
[22:53] <Scarybaby> emacs? never heard of it
[22:54] <nacc> Scarybaby: any editor
[22:54] <dckx> OerHeks:  so the instructions say: "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt" ... the "sda1" in there should be the partition were I installed ubuntu, right? In muy case, sda1 is the EFI system partition... I should change it to sdaN where N is the root partition?
[22:54] <Scarybaby> even if i edit on a windows computer?
[22:55] <nacc> Scarybaby: what does where you are editing matter?
[22:55] <nacc> Scarybaby: also this is the Ubuntu support channel, not sure asking about Windows applications are relevant
[22:56] <dckx> OerHeks: or should I stick to sda1? if I do sd1, then the rest of the steps give an error (mount point /mtn/proc does not exist)... however, if I try to mount sda7, for instance, it says "special device dev/sda7 does not exist"
[22:56] <Scarybaby> if i edit something in windows, it can be read on linux without issue?
[22:56] <nacc> Scarybaby: how are you editing it in windows?
[22:56] <Scarybaby> on something like notepad++
[22:57] <Scarybaby> write the html and php stuff, then upload to apache
[22:57] <nacc> Scarybaby: 'upload'?
[22:57] <Scarybaby> sfpt
[22:57] <Scarybaby> sftp
[22:57] <kangaroo72> Hi again ... ;-)
[22:57] <Scarybaby> my ubuntu server is headless
[22:57] <Scarybaby> i've been doing everything via ssh
[22:57] <kangaroo72> @nacc - no problem today - just prevention ...
[22:57] <nacc> Scarybaby: that's not uploading to 'apache', that's uploading to a directory
[22:58] <Scarybaby> sorry about that
[22:58] <dar123> I need to install and perform certain tasks when i boot a server. One of the script downloads source and compiles an application. Where should i put the script?
[22:58] <kangaroo72> can U tell me what to backup for KVM?
[22:58] <xz> OerHeks: cubic seems to work fine, but it doesn't give me persistent partition option
[22:58] <xz> OerHeks: I'm asking for more than regular user I guess, but it would be cool to have it
[22:59] <nacc> Scarybaby: afaict, there shouldn't be any issues with that. I guess you might eol issues if anything, but I don't think apache/php care (and if it does `dos2unix` may fix it)
[22:59] <nacc> Scarybaby: why not try it and see?
[23:00] <Scarybaby> so i'm good to go editing that way? great. whats the best file format to save it as?
[23:01] <nacc> Scarybaby: 'file format'? they are text files
[23:01] <fishcooker> should we restarted the service of a package after doing an upgrade to the package?
[23:01] <nacc> Scarybaby: I don't understand why you edit remotely and upload -- why not just edit files on the server?
[23:02] <nacc> fishcooker: iiuc, if it's necessary it should have been restarted for you (or you might get a request to reboot your machine, depending)
[23:02] <Scarybaby> pain in the ass in mobaterm. I'm checking out emacs, but i don't have a desktop for the server
[23:02] <nacc> Scarybaby: you don't need a desktop to use an editor
[23:02] <nacc> Scarybaby: both vim and emacs work over ssh
[23:02] <nacc> Scarybaby: i have no idea what 'mobaterm' is
[23:03] <Scarybaby> SSH terminal
[23:03] <nacc> sounds like bad software if it's hard to use an editor in it
[23:03] <Scarybaby> i've been editing it in nano but i haven't been a fan because I can't click around.
[23:04] <Scarybaby> i'm open to suggestions for a ssh terminal in windows
[23:04] <bhalash> Cygwin?
[23:04] <nacc> Scarybaby: well, that would be a question for #windows probably
[23:04] <bhalash> Or PuTTY
[23:04] <nacc> Scarybaby: you don't need a mouse to edit files
[23:04] <Scarybaby> don't need it. just prefer it
[23:05] <OerHeks> dckx, i am back. only you can tell what partitions are used, can you pastebin sudo parted -l
[23:05] <Scarybaby> my bad, i just realized im in the wrong channel
[23:05] <Scarybaby> i meant to go to ubuntu-beginners
[23:05] <dckx> OerHeks: Hi, I got that working... but when I am in steps 8 and 9 I still get the temporary failure resolving the repositories... and I added the DNS to the resolv.conf file
[23:06] <dckx> OerHeks: but I do have internet in livecd... but somehow apt still cannot connect to the repositories
[23:07] <OerHeks> dckx, oke, can you pastebin that output?
[23:07] <OerHeks> dckx, sudo apt update | nc termbin.com 9999
[23:07] <fishcooker> let's say ntp service nacc... should we restart the service?
[23:08] <dckx> OerHeks: didn't work.. how do I copy this to past bin? cant use ctrl+c, cant use mouse inside this tty terminal
[23:08] <nacc> fishcooker: i think if it needed to be restarted from theupgrade, it should have (via the package scripts). if it didn't, it wouldn't. but you can restart NTP yourself of course. It should not do any harm
[23:09] <tatertots> dckx: the old fashioned way....type it out
[23:09] <kangaroo72> @nacc: I'm creating a backup-plan for my system. Is it safe to backup "/etc/libvirt" & "/var/lib/libvirt"?
[23:09] <OerHeks> tatertots +1 type the failing ppa.launchpad names
[23:10] <OerHeks> we can tell if those have packages for your ubuntu version
[23:10] <OerHeks> if there are dead ppa's, you need to install ppa-purge, and run « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> »
[23:10] <nacc> kangaroo72: what do you want to have backed up? the VMs?
[23:11] <dckx> ok, I'll do it
[23:11] <dckx> brb
[23:11] <kangaroo72> Generic for a HDD-Crash
[23:11] <nacc> kangaroo72: but you don't care about other data?
[23:11] <kangaroo72> which e. G.?
[23:12] <nacc> kangaroo72: any data
[23:12] <nacc> kangaroo72: i don't understand what you're asking at all
[23:12] <kangaroo72> of course I have planned NGINX
[23:12] <kangaroo72> MySQL-DB's  and so on ...
[23:12] <nacc> kangaroo72: do you only want to backup your VMs? or are you asking how to backup a system in case of HD failure
[23:12] <nacc> kangaroo72: what does that have to do with anything?
[23:13] <kangaroo72> is the VM working again after restoring these folders?
[23:13] <OerHeks> kangaroo72, simple plan, clone your hdd with clonezilla
[23:13] <kangaroo72> the image of the vm is included there ..
[23:14] <nacc> kangaroo72: i don't know
[23:14] <kangaroo72> ;-)
[23:14] <kangaroo72> try'n error? ^^
[23:14] <nacc> kangaroo72: yes
[23:14] <kangaroo72> hehehe :-)
[23:14] <nacc> kangaroo72: or as OerHeks said, do whole disk images
[23:15] <kangaroo72> does clonezilla work on the fly?
[23:15] <pitt-hacker> who is ready to hack?
[23:15] <pitt-hacker> ...
[23:16] <OerHeks> kangaroo72, no, do that from a live iso, install clonezilla and go
[23:16] <OerHeks> pitt-hacker, wrong channel
[23:17] <pitt-hacker> OerHeks, why wrong chat?
[23:17] <kangaroo72> that's not what I want ... so I have to shutdown the machine ... I want to plan a copy-job via cron ... this would be nice ...
[23:17] <pitt-hacker> I have some Hillary e-mails
[23:17] <k1l> pitt-hacker: this channel is only for technical ubuntu support. thanks
[23:17] <kangaroo72> I will simulate it ...
[23:17] <pitt-hacker> I am here to help Hillary not get hacked into
[23:21] <OerHeks> kangaroo72, backing up a live system, then you surely need a plan
[23:22] <kangaroo72> All user-data are on RAID-6 backed up monthly on LTO-Tapes
[23:22] <dckx> OerHeks: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24191980/
[23:22] <kangaroo72> but the systempart, I'll do via Cronjob ...
[23:22] <dckx> that's part of it... is that enough? those are all the packages, but there was more text, very similar to that though
[23:23] <kangaroo72> I will test - thanks
[23:23] <ericnoan> what is the difference between installing the KDE package, vs installing kubuntu? and likewise for xubuntu and lubuntu?
[23:23] <dckx> OerHeks: I just did a ping, and output is: "connect: Network is unreachable"
[23:24] <dckx> OerHeks: Ok, I just realized I am not connect to internet... will try again
[23:24] <dckx> OerHeks: try again apt update and ping
[23:24] <OerHeks> bumblebee testing, seems oke, but on top of that https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa which is the one you should use, is your mistake
[23:25] <OerHeks> remove bumblebee testing please
[23:25] <OerHeks> you need to install ppa-purge, and run: sudo ppa-purge ppa:bumblebee/testing
[23:26] <matti> :)
[23:27] <OerHeks> or choose bumblebee, then remove ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
[23:29] <dckx> OerHeks: but how do I install ppa-purge if I cannot access internet? I can from livecd, but not from tty
[23:30] <tatertots> dckx: smell like you have a reinstallation of the operating system in your future
[23:31] <dell> alguien habla español?
[23:31] <k1l> !es
[23:31] <dckx> tatertots: will reinstallation remove all the software I installed? Or will just fix system files?
[23:33] <tatertots> dckx: can you name any of the software you speak of by name?
[23:34] <tatertots> dckx: if not...that's the least of your worries right now
[23:34] <dckx> tatertots: lol you are right
[23:35] <mkelogg> need some help with my program that uses pipes and forks that is interpretation of cat /etc/passwd | cut  – f1  – d: | sort.
[23:35] <mkelogg> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24192056/
[23:35] <dckx> OerHeks: I had found this solution earlier... what do you think? About contacting my ISP and all that? does it make sense? http://askubuntu.com/questions/91543/apt-get-update-fails-to-fetch-files-temporary-failure-resolving-error
[23:35] <mkelogg> for some reason cant get sort to correctly fork()
[23:36] <OerHeks> oneiric .. that version is EOL
[23:36] <OerHeks> !oneiric
[23:37] <Hydr0p0nX> anyone point me to a guide for getting the vrc-1100 fully functioning under 14.04.5 ? i can get some of the keys to work but at least the menu, info, exit, back, red/blue/green/yellow keys don't appear to be registering
[23:37] <dckx> OerHeks: I understand the deprecated ppas, or the conflict between packages. What I don't get is why I cannot connect to internet.
[23:37] <Hydr0p0nX> everything I can find seems outdated
[23:37] <OerHeks> dckx, did you chroot with oneiric?
[23:37] <tatertots> dckx: you internet works fine from livecd/liveusb....why bother your ISP for a problem that it's liability lies squarely on your shoulders
[23:37] <Guest26329> this operating system is crazy hard
[23:38] <Guest26329> it was so hard just to get here.
[23:39] <dckx> OerHeks: you mean if I did "sudo chroot /mnt" (step 7. in the LiveCdRecovery guide)... I did that... in tty it says: root@ubuntu:/#... is that what you were asking about?
[23:40] <OerHeks> dckx, no, the live iso itself, is it oneiric 11.10 ??
[23:40] <OerHeks> and is the troubled machine wired or wireless?
[23:41] <Guest26329> im gonna have to come back here when i have a whole day.  ive run out of patience and i seriously doubt i can find this chat room again. everything is so hard in this os
[23:41] <dckx> OerHeks: how can I check within livecd? it is wireless
[23:41] <wxl> @Guest26329: you can always pay for support through windows/mac. technically, you can pay for support with ubuntu, too.
[23:41] <OerHeks> dckx, ah oke, try to plugin a cable. you have no wireless connection setup.
[23:41] <Guest26329>  id sooner reinstall windows 10
[23:42] <dckx> OerHeks: ok, will be back soon
[23:42] <OerHeks> :-)
[23:42] <dckx> tatertots: good point
[23:42] <dckx> tatertots: you seem to be enjoying my situation to a certain degree, am I right?
[23:42] <nacc> mkelogg: why are you using C to just call commands on the shell basically?
[23:43] <OerHeks> dckx, normally i am the joker, and tatertots the volunteer :-D
[23:44] <tatertots> dckx: of course i do not enjoy your situation....what kind of person do you take me for
[23:46] <mkelogg> im learning pipes and forks nacc
[23:46] <nacc> mkelogg: also, you're not connecting anything (afaict) to pdfs2[0] for writing
[23:47] <mkelogg> well trying to
[23:47] <nacc> mkelogg: i'm not sure C is the best place to learn abou them, but ok
[23:47] <dckx> OerHeks: apt update working now that it is wired... any other apt stuff I should try before ppa-purge?
[23:48] <dckx> OerHeks: anything that will let me boot, so I can do the purge and all that from my installation instead of livecd (I have no trackpoad on livecd)
[23:48] <OerHeks> nope, instlal ppa-purge and go
[23:48] <nacc> mkelogg: your use of dup() seems odd
[23:48] <nacc> mkelogg: and doesn't match what the comment says, afaict
[23:49] <nacc> mkelogg: but you should be asking a programming channel anyways
[23:49] <mkelogg> ok
[23:50] <dckx> OerHeks: nevermind, I will find out myself. Thank you so much for your help :D
[23:51] <tatertots> dckx: you got internet now?
[23:51] <dckx> tatertots: I know, linux users would never rejoice out of someone else's technical mishaps
[23:52] <dckx> tatertots: yes, I do... So hopefully I'll be able to boot into ubuntu now and solve whaever packages issues from there
[23:52] <tatertots> dckx: give it a shot/try
[23:56] <tatertots> dckx: were you able to boot into ubuntu?
[23:58] <Guest11832> why i can not see the device tab when i open terminal on my VM guest ob VB
[23:58] <dckx> tatertots: no, but hopefully I will be able to fix the packages from recovery mode... but that will have to wait until I do laundry
[23:58] <Guest11832> i am using the server version without GUI
[23:59] <tatertots> Guest11832: aww...are you looking for a particular "device"?
