deskwizardMy goggle-fu is lacking tonight, perhaps someone here knows... is there any way to run a script when power saving turns on or off the screen ?00:30

ponyriderdeskwizard: make you own hook: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PowerManagement/ReducedPower#An_example_power.d_hook00:34
deskwizardponyrider: will look into that. much appreciated00:34
deskwizardponyrider: yeah, I kinda want it to do it itself, the whole point is not having to do it by hand, running shell commands manually isnt really what I was looking for00:40
Ben64yeah, it will once you do that00:41
ponyriderdeskwizard: you said to want to run a script when power saving turns on/off.. so what? how should it be done?00:44
deskwizardponyrider: that's pretty much what I was asking :P00:45
ponyriderdeskwizard: use pm-utils and just place any script in /etc/pm/power.d00:47

NiteRaidah2hi.  I've been having some ongoing troubles with a dropping connection on Ubuntu 16.04.  it's been going on in some way, shape or form since I started using Linux-based operating systems in late September.  can anyone lend a hand?01:36
NiteRaidah2http://pastebin.com/Q3BtNX3q list of specific issues01:36
MungerWired? Wireless?01:39
NiteRaidah2wireless.01:40
MungerCan you pastern the output of 'lspci' and 'lshw -C network' ?01:40
NiteRaidah2alright01:41

Munger"WARNING: you should run this program as super-user" try 'sudo lshw -C network'01:44
NiteRaidah2yeah, I was wondering what that was - didn't really want to touch that though01:45
NiteRaidah2http://paste.ubuntu.com/24212736/ sudo lshw -C network01:46
MungerI suspect you may have the wrong driver for you wifi hardware installed. I don't know exactly what you should be using, but it's where i would start looking.01:50
=== luo is now known as isolated
NiteRaidah2that's what I've thought, but I wasn't certain and wasn't going to try screwing around blindly01:51
NiteRaidah2though you don't know which one to use, where would be a good place to look?  is there an area on any of the ubuntu sites or on intel?01:52
MungerWhen it gets bad, kit may be worth checking the output of 'sudo dmesg' to see if the kernel is logging any errors01:52
MungerSomething like 'dmesg|grep wlp3s0'01:53
Munger'lsmod' will tell you what drivers you are using01:54
MungerGoogling for 'ubuntu RTL8188EE driver' may provide some help01:56
NiteRaidah2okay01:57
=== Guest20745 is now known as arCABAL
MungerI'm afraid I can't be of much more help, but hopefully you may recognise the symptoms from some of the results of that search01:58
NiteRaidah2I appreciate it01:59
al2o3-crMunger: the drivers in the paste :P01:59
NiteRaidah290% of ubuntu has been working very well, but this has been a pain since day one01:59
al2o3-crconfiguration: broadcast=yes driver=rtl8188ee driverversion=4....02:00
NiteRaidah2ugh02:03
NiteRaidah2think I've gotten myself kind of lost with this02:03
Mungeral2o3-cr, It is, but I don't know if that is a good or bad driver. All I can do is suggest things to check. IO may be barking up the wrong tree, but it does sound to me like a driver issue.02:05
al2o3-crMunger: sure02:06
al2o3-crNiteRaidah2: have you tried with any other driver?02:07
NiteRaidah2al2o3-cr: I haven't.  like I mentioned above I theorized all this was due to some sort of driver issue but I had no idea what to do and didn't want to risk screwing things up - even if that wasn't something to worry about02:09
=== luo is now known as isolated
al2o3-crNiteRaidah2: try with rtl8821ae02:09
NiteRaidah2alright02:10
NiteRaidah2probably a silly question but is it free to do?02:11
al2o3-crNiteRaidah2: of course02:11
NiteRaidah2cool.02:11
al2o3-crNiteRaidah2: firstly `sudo modprobe -r rtl8188ee`02:11
MungerWe now know two things we didn't know ten minutes ago. It's a RTL8188EE Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) and the driver is rtl8188ee 4.4.0-66-generic. Combine that with the output of uname -a and troubleshooters have something useful to go on :)02:11
NiteRaidah2Good stuff. :)02:12
nrdb I have several email boxs, what I thought I could do was to setup a VM to download all the emails (via pop) and then setup a web email server so I could read them... do you think this is a good idea?02:13
al2o3-crrtl8188ee has always been a bit crappy02:13
NiteRaidah3so uh02:15
Mungernrdb, Can't you simply switch the email accounts to IMAP instead? Mail servers are notoriously tricky, and unless you have a static IP they don;t work well anyway.02:15
NiteRaidah3was that supposed to knock out my connection?02:16
=== luo_ is now known as isolatedd
tatertotsNiteRaidah3: if you were dependent on wifi then yet...they probably should have mentioned that to you so you wouldn't be shocked02:18
tatertotsyes not yet02:18
NiteRaidah3I see02:18
isolateddisolated02:19
tatertotsNiteRaidah3: did you regain wifi or did you plug in a ethernet cable?02:19
NiteRaidah3still don't have wifi on that laptop, nor did I plug in an ethernet cable.  currently on backup laptop.02:20
nrdbMunger, as IMAP leaves the email on the email server, I usally use POP, and my internet IP of my server hasn't changed in months.02:20
al2o3-crNiteRaidah3: my bad, i summized you were using ethernet :(02:20
tatertotsNiteRaidah3: ah i see...chatting from a different computer02:20
NiteRaidah3yep02:20
NiteRaidah3no problem al202:20
al2o3-crNiteRaidah3: so the module is unloaded now?02:21
NiteRaidah3um02:21
NiteRaidah3what do you mean?02:21
al2o3-crNiteRaidah3: is the wifi connection lost on the HP?02:22
NiteRaidah3yes, it's lost on that laptop02:22

Cyberdrakealkisg, it's a desktop keyboard. USB cable. It's weird, it works fine in Ubuntu with Spotify. No, it's an FN key, not F#. It's the FN right next to CTRL.05:55
chxoh bother, i am on a VPS05:56
alkisgCyberdrake: `xev` is a program that displays keystrokes etc. Run it in a terminal, press some Fn+key combinations, and see what it produces05:56
chxthat's why :/05:56
chxsorry05:56
Cyberdrakealkisg, good idea05:57
smremchx: hehe05:57
smremuL4m0g: u must add this option after load initramfs05:58
smremon the same line05:58
Cyberdrakealkisg, it picks up the key. Oddly, it seems like the FN + vol keys work system wide. There's a package or something, I'm betting, that is on Ubuntu but not Xubuntu.05:59
Cyberdrakealkisg, output of FN + Play/Pause05:59
Cyberdrakehttp://pastebin.com/aTuQZaWh05:59
alkisgCyberdrake: in ubuntu, unity-system-settings picks up the volume key, and processes it. In xubuntu, you need to find the equivelant that would process the volume key06:00
alkisg*unity-settings-daemon, sorry06:00
coms418thats funny, I just downloaded an early version of 17 ubuntu and everything on this laptop worked out the box06:00
Cyberdrakealkisg, volume key works fine. It's FN + Play/Pause, FN + Skip, FN + Rewind that don't work.06:00
coms418first time I have ever had an OS work so good06:00
alkisgCyberdrake: it's the same thing06:00
Cyberdrakealkisg, gotchya. Hmm. I have an idea.06:01
alkisgCyberdrake: google for xubuntu pause key, to see which dialog is offered there06:01
alkisgCyberdrake: first google hit: http://askubuntu.com/questions/857359/windows-play-pause-keys-on-xubuntu-spotify06:01
alkisgCyberdrake: eh,  no, ignore that, use that one instead: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xubuntu-default-settings/+bug/116526606:02
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1165266 in xubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) "missing keyboard shortcuts" [Medium,Fix released]06:02
alkisgThis would use native xubuntu facilities06:02
Cyberdrakealkisg, I found this: spotify-client-gnome-support , going to install and see if it makes a difference06:02
Cyberdrakealkisg, I don't think Xubuntu likes to play nice with Spotify and FN keys, so we'll see06:04

uL4m0gsarem, this machine is pretty jack up, its Aspire E5-575-33BM06:31
tatertotsuL4m0g: just curious has anyone mentioned reinstalling over the last hour and a half that you've had this issue?06:32
tatertotsuL4m0g: oh nevermind....06:32
uL4m0gyou did06:32
uL4m0g:)06:32
smremuL4m0g: uefu with gpt06:33
EriC^^uL4m0g: what's the problem?06:33
smremuL4m0g: u check livecd boot correct and work or what u try?06:33
uL4m0gsmrem i dont think uefi is a good idea, the machine will not detect ssd if i change to uefi, so i change the bios to legacy06:34
EriC^^uL4m0g: what's the problem?06:34
uL4m0gEric^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24213406/ this shows up after i input the password to unlock sda506:34
uL4m0gEric^^ it stuck in emergency mode, wont load to OS06:35
smremuL4m0g: u write u are put passphrase then kernel must recognize your ssd06:35
smremand your partition06:35
EriC^^uL4m0g: fresh install?06:36
uL4m0gsmrem, this is too much problem i reinstall with hdd in 16.0406:36
uL4m0gyea06:36
uL4m0gthanks anyways06:36
smremuL4m0g: but i dont think is problem ssd06:37
smrembut if u dont have time better option reinstall:)06:37
EriC^^uL4m0g: in grub add "nomodeset" to the line that says linux /boot/vmlinuz.... quiet splash06:38
smremuL4m0g: try anothre kernel06:38
EriC^^https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=20774906:38
smremEriC^^: U know is modeset=0 and nomodeset is the same?06:41
EriC^^yeah06:41
smremnovaue.modeset=0 and i915.modeset=0 is the same nomodeset ?06:42
EriC^^i think so06:42
smremthen i write him to check this and don't work:)06:42
smremi think he have problem on graphic driver i write him try insmod all_video but steel dont work06:43
alkisgsmrem: that insmod is about grub, not about ubuntu06:44
smremalkisg: how can u think that -_-'06:44
alkisgsmrem: i.e. the drivers that grub has to display its graphic menu, _before_ it loads the kernel. Ubuntu isn't affected by that06:44
uL4m0gEric^^ the nomode doesnt work, it just put me in lower resolution but still show same emergency message06:45
smremalkisg: yes they did:)06:45
uL4m0gin ORANGE color06:45
EriC^^uL4m0g: which graphics card do you have?06:45
uL4m0gEric^^ no graphics card, i have onboard intel graphics06:45
alkisguL4m0g: what was the initial issue, the emergency console or that it doesn't load graphics?06:45
EriC^^uL4m0g: ok, try i915.modeset=0 nomodeset06:46
alkisgEriC^^: if it's falling to the emergency console, I don't think graphics drivers will help there...06:46
EriC^^alkisg: the error msg06:46
EriC^^http://paste.ubuntu.com/24213406/06:46
alkisgI'm not so sure if that's the initial problem or the result of the tries to fix it06:47
EriC^^i found on some sites that it was working, then the person started getting the error message06:47
alkisguL4m0g: so, if you try to boot the computer without doing anything to grub, you're still going to the emergency console?06:47
smremalkisg: when u use gnome and difference driver u can show menu grub but dont load e.x. correct driver after06:47
uL4m0galkisg, it goes to Please enter password to unlock sda5,    i have set it to full disk encryption, after i unlock sda5 i should load the OS asking me to type in the password then it'll bring me to ubuntu desktop06:48
alkisgsmrem: /boot/grub/i386-pc/video_cirrus.mod is the grub driver. /lib/modules/4.8.0-41-generic/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/cirrus/cirrus.ko is the linux driver. One is for grub, the other for ubuntu.06:48
alkisguL4m0g: can you paste *that* message somewhere, or a picture?06:49
theUser2WHY!!!?06:49
smremuL4m0g: try press Ctrl + Alt + F1 after encryption maybe u see another error06:49
theUser2WHY!!!? when i tell the installer I DO NOT WANT TO DOWNLOAD ANYTHING during the install procedure... does it still DO JUST THAT!06:49
theUser2?06:49
EriC^^theUser2: it's updating the repos cache probably06:50
theUser2No... its downloading everything it seems06:50
uL4m0galkisg what message, the emergency after i unlock sda5? its http://paste.ubuntu.com/24213406/  nothing works though if i follow what it says it just turn purple then back to that black screen with the emergency message06:50
alkisguL4m0g: I don't see a message for encryption there. There, it just asks you to press enter without a password.06:51
alkisgThat's the usual prompt to enter the recovery mode06:51
EriC^^uL4m0g: try i915.modeset=0 nomodeset06:52
theUser2No! means NO!   I did not consent!06:52
uL4m0gEric^^ same result as nomodeset06:52
EriC^^theUser2: the installer knows better!06:52
tatertotstheUser2: it'll be okay..just let it run it's course06:52
smremnow we clear:)06:52
theUser2No its not ok when i told it not to do it06:53
alkisguL4m0g: at that point, press enter, then type `cat /proc/cmdline`, and then type the output here. I don't think you cat enter the emergency mode without manually asking it via the grub option.06:53
theUser2Ubuntu is a rapist06:54
Jordan_UtheUser2: Please don't make such comparisons.06:54
alkisguL4m0g: nomodeset etc won't help you while you're using the recovery mode, which on purpose doesn't have graphics etc06:54
alkisgJust stop using the recovery mode and try to boot normally06:54
uL4m0ghow06:54
tatertotstheUser2: just relax..it'll be finished in a few minutes06:55
Jordan_UtheUser2: How did you tell the installer not to grab anything from the internet? Is this a Desktop or server (debian installer) installation?06:55
alkisguL4m0g: start with what I said06:55
alkisg(08:53:58 πμ) alkisg: uL4m0g: at that point, press enter, then type `cat /proc/cmdline`, and then type the output here. I don't think you cat enter the emergency mode without manually asking it via the grub option.06:55
alkisguL4m0g: this will tell us what you select in grub to enter the emergency mode. What you did wrong there.06:55
theUser2It asked me if i wanted to install updates from the interweb... i told it NO! (by unchecking the checkbox)06:56
alkisgtheUser2: if you think that ubiquity, the installer, has a bug, you can file a bug report in launchpad for it06:56
uL4m0galkisg, BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-4.8.0-41-generic root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root ro quiet splash i915.modeset=0 nomodeset06:56
alkisguL4m0g: and if you don't put nomodeset there, does it still put you to emergency mode?06:57
theUser2And it even picked a slow  server so.... this will take hours if i don't restart the installer and install without network connected06:57
uL4m0galkisg, yes06:57
alkisguL4m0g: there should be a message why you get dropped to the emergency mode. Do you see such a message?06:58
alkisguL4m0g: emergency mode is *not* because of graphics issues06:58
alkisggraphics issues come much later than the emergency mode06:58

AmisHello! I'm on MATE 16 with Compiz. I'm trying to place two gnome-terminal windows on a monitor side-by-side automatically. I could set them to be Always visible on workspace. I can even set the x/y position correctly but I CANNOT set the widthxheight properly. Anyone have experience with this?07:10
Amisgnome-terminal has --geometry but it is inaccurate and buggy07:10
smrem--execute=/usr07:10
AmisCompiz cannot change gnome-termianl size because gnome-termianl overwrites it07:10
Amisterminal*07:10
smremAmis: u whant put terminal on background?07:12
smrem*want07:13
Amissmrem, I want to place two terminal on my secondary monitor on a fixed position with fixed width and height, essentially covering my whole secondary monitor with two terminals.07:13
smreminstall unity-tweak:P07:14
AmisI have a bunch on programs starting when the system start - each placed on a specific workspace on a specific position - creating a confortable working area for me but gnome-terminal does not obey the rules of compiz07:14
Amissmrem, I'm on Ubuntu MATE which uses GNOME07:15
smremAmis: i use unity-tweak-tool in gnome on mate07:16
Amissmrem, you think it is capable of overwriting gnome-terminal's own resizing ability?07:17
smremAmis: try mate-terminal07:17
Amissmrem, I used that before and switched back to gnome-terminal because of reasons07:18
AmisI would like to have a solution involving gnome-terminal on MATE07:18
AmisIf that is even possible07:18
smremu try user or root?07:18
Amissmrem, what do you mean?07:19
smremwhen u try geometry terminal u use as user or su mode07:19
AmisI'm launching the terminal as user. I shouldn't have to start a terminal with root privileges just to have it's size set correctly07:20
alkisgAmis: what's the command line you're using?07:20
smremAmis: ok i understand but i ask if u try?07:21
Amisalkisg, I tried simply running 'gnome-terminal --role="some-custom-role-so-compiz-can-identify-my-window"' with Compiz settings about specific placement and size rules. Placement rules work. Size rules seem to have no effect.07:22
smremAmis: try mate-terminal --geometry=20x20+200+20007:22
alkisgAmis: it is possible that gnome-terminal would ignore size rules and only respect the --geometry it its command line07:24
Amissmrem, although --geometry would do the job it is not the best solution as it is measured in characters and I cannot make it strech the whole screen height because it refuses to go out of screen. Also with --geometry placing two windows side by side there will be an annoying gap between them again because it is measured in characters rather than pixels07:24
Amisalkisg, yes, gnome-terminal only obeys --geometry and that is the problem07:24
alkisgAmis: for example, mate-terminal can't be resized to pixel precision; it can only be resized on characters07:25
alkisgAmis: you would see half a character otherwise07:25
sir141elo07:25
sir141Hi all07:25
sir141Please call me :D07:25
sir141XD07:25
sir141LOLLLLLL07:25
Amisalkisg, that is why I tried compiz as that because everything else obeys compiz's size rules but because gnome-terminal sets its own size it just ignores compiz07:26
sir141LINUX IN SCHOOL XD07:26
sir141Bye07:26
sir141Hi all07:26
smremAmis: but u have --display or --full-screen or run terminal & and use --active option07:26
sir141Lubie placki07:26
alkisgAmis: well, if it's a deliberate choice of the gnome-terminal programmers, there's little that compiz can do about it07:26
alkisgAmis: you would have to file a bug report upstream to convince them that your use case is something useful for a wider audience07:27
Amisalkisg, that's why I asked here hoping someone might have some hacky but promising idea about this.07:27
alkisgNo, I think --geometry would be it... :)07:27
AmisOne last lead: maybe... is it possible to run a script inside the terminal that would resize itself?07:28
alkisgAmis: well, you could script a conversion of pixels to --geometry...07:28
Amisalkisg, I doubt geometry takes non-integer characters07:28
alkisgOf course you won't be able to resize it to non-integer characters07:28
alkisgSince the application code will refuse that07:28
AmisYea07:28
alkisgYou can just resize it to the nearest character07:28
alkisgYou can rebuild from source if you're that desperate :D07:29
Amisalkisg, that might be overkill for something this simple :)07:29
AmisWell thanks anyway smrem & alkisg. I'll try the path of resizing AFTER that window was created. See if that yield any results.07:30
smremAmis: try run with load config mode07:30
alkisgAmis: can you resize it with your mouse?07:30
Amisalkisg, of course07:30
Amissmrem, what do you mean?07:30
alkisgTo pixel precision?07:30
Amisalkisg, yea07:30
smremwith --load-config07:31
alkisgAmis: and then gnome-terminal displays only half of the last character?07:31
smremgenerate geomtery window on config file (another profile) and run with this, maybe work this07:32
alkisgBecause with mate-terminal and marco, I can't do that07:32
Amisalkisg, it breaks to a new line when the character would be split leaving a thin area where characters are never drawn07:32
=== Spontex is now known as Guest14077
Amissmrem, but then I would only be able to specify widht and height in chacters which is not really enough07:33
smremheh then u have only have source compile:)07:34
smremi'm sorry for the mistakes but i try not to sleep:P07:35
smremAmis: i never have this problem becouse i dont halt system:)07:36
Amissmrem, if I could, I wouldn't either but there are times when something goes horribly wrong, the X crashes, run out of memory, etc... and it's inevitable07:37
smremAmis: Yea, i know this feeling07:39

SuprtimeHi, I am looking for any help regarding flaky dorms wifi. 90% of time my ubuntu 16.04 is stuck connecting to it. While my roommate with windows connects without any issues, just like my android phone. Wireless works on other networks without any issues. What can I do? It's very annoying because I need net for my studies08:19
cfhowlettSuprtime, dual boot windows. or swap your wifi card for a more reliable chipset08:20

stephanlapHello. My Desktop doesn't boot up anymore. It stops at the "Kubuntu"-logo/writing. After booting into a root-shell via recovery mode i found out that my main hD has been booted in read-mode. I can remount it as read-write without problems, but I'm not sure if that helps anything. Is there a way to start the graphical login-screen from the root-shell?08:35
alkisgstephanlap: did you do anything specific that resulted in the desktop not booting? E.g. updates, new drivers?08:36
markshutlewerki have a quetion for ubuntu gnome 16.10 - firefox scrollbars are not default they are bigger/wider but the issue is they are also moved a bit away from the edge (maximised) which makes them hard to grab and easy to click on the white scroll space instead of the scrollbar08:36
stephanlapalkisg: I can't say really as I usually don't reboot the desktop for weeks.  But it's highly likely that there were some system updates the last time I had it running.08:37
alkisgstephanlap: when you see grub, press "e" in the normal boot entry, and remove "quiet splash" in order to boot normaly while seeing all the boot messages. Check for specific errors there.08:37
alkisg!quiet08:37
alkisg!splash08:38
ubottuTo change the Gnome splash screen, use gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.08:38
alkisgNah, don't we have any factoids for instructions on how to remove quiet-splash?08:38
stephanlapalkisg: I'll try that, thanks.08:38
markshutlewerkhold Shift for grub menu press F6 and edit the boot param - remove quiet splash08:39
stephanlapalkisg: Okay... the system stopped with a kernel panic (I mean, it hangs during the boot-process).08:42
alkisgstephanlap: if you correctly removed "quiet splash" and you didn't break something else there, then that's your issue. What error message does it say? Do you have a mobile phone to take a photo?08:43
cfhowlettstephanlap, something weird is happening.  throwing a kernel panic AND booting up as read only?08:43
alkisg!precise08:44
ubottuUbuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is a currently-supported !LTS release of Ubuntu.  Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/120408:44
stephanlapalkisg: there's not much to see on the screen. some messages about "automremove_wake_function", "evict", "do_unlinkat" and some others. and then the Kernel panic "not syncing: Attempted to kill init!". A Kernel offeset given08:44
stephanlapcfhowlett: It seems so.08:45
alkisgPrecise is EOL on April. Does anyone know the specific date?08:45
alkisgstephanlap: try to boot into recovery and select the "file system check" menu there08:45
stephanlapProblem is, I can't do anything at the moment, with the kernel panic. I can't switch to a virtual console.08:45

MartyIXHi, I have a computer with Ubuntu 16.10 now and I would like to buy a new one that would support 3 monitor setup (i.e. I want to connect three physical displays to a desktop computer). I want this to program with ease: one monitor for IDE, second for a bunch of consoles and the third for a browser. How would you choose proper hardware for this? I mean I guess two graphics cards but which are best supported (drivers)..09:01
stephanlapalkisg: I guess I'll reboot. I didn't get any new messages from fschk for several minutes now. I'll try the text-mode for a change.09:03

thrmohow do i make on-screen keyboard toggle automatically on unity? i'm using a x86 tablet09:07
MartyIXtatertots, Well, that's one way of putting it. The other is that I had a displaylink thingy that I connected to USB3 and it supported the third monitor. The thing was that going from Ubuntu 16.04 to Ubuntu 16.10 broke the driver somehow and CPU usage went to the sky. So call me lazy if you will but after this experience I'm somewhat sad that I have to deal with this things instead of doing something productive I'm paid for...09:08

alkisgstephanlap: can you load the recovery mode at this point?09:22
alkisgstephanlap: if yes, try adding nomodeset, nothing else would explain why you'd get to recovery but not to bash09:23
alkisg!nomodeset09:23
ubottuA common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter09:23
stephanlapalkisg: Yeah, recovery mode works (it gives me the options-screen where I can use the various options like cpkg, resume, clean etc.)09:23
alkisgstephanlap: then you either do some mistake while replacing "quiet splash" with "init=/bin/bash", or it's an issue with nvidia, which is bypassed with nomodeset. Try replacing "quiet splash" with "nomodeset" now.09:24
stephanlapalkisg: I'll try "nomodeset"09:25
stephanlapalkisg: btw, my "linux ..." line (after using "e" on the boot-option ended with "ro quiet splash $vt_handoff" and I had changed it to "ro init=/bin/bash $vt_handoff". I'm no expert with that but I think that should be correct.09:28

Kailinameserver 127.0.0.5312:00
KailiWeird12:00
KailiIt should be 80.67.169.1212:00
alkisgIt's ubuntu's internal resolver, dnsmasq12:00
KailiWell then, it's really ubuntu at fault :p12:00
ZenWhich probably indicates a setup issue with that12:00
alkisgcoop has 3 redirects, maybe dnsmasq doesn't like it12:00
KailiSo if I replace that with 80.67.169.12, it should work right12:01
Ben64Kaili: it isn't ubuntu's fault12:01
alkisgIt'll get overwritten when network-manager restarts12:01
Ben64just set a dns server12:01
Ben64use your network manager12:01
alkisgYou need to tell network-manager not to use dnsmasq12:01
KailiI did, in the network manager, I wrote 80.67.169.1212:01
Zenno you didn't12:02
alkisgNetwork manager uses dnsmasq for caching12:02
ZenYou told network manager what its upstream dns server should be12:02
alkisgSo no matter what you do in the connection settings, you'll always get dnsmasq, 127.x12:02
Ben64Kaili: nmcli dev list | grep DNS12:02
KailiError: argument 'list' not understood. Try passing --help instead.12:03
Ben64Kaili: nmcli device show | grep DNS12:03
Kailinmcli device show | grep DNS IP4.DNS[1]:                             80.67.169.1212:03
KailiAnswer is : IP4.DNS[1]:                             80.67.169.1212:04
KailiSo you see I did :p12:04
KailiMaybe I should replace dnsmasq by unbound12:04
alkisgKaili: check /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf12:04
Ben64if you want, i'd suggest using a better dns server though12:04
alkisgcomment out the dns=dnsmasq line12:04
alkisgThen restart network manager12:05
alkisgAt that point, dnsmasq won't break your queries12:05
KailiBen64 : 80.67.169.12 is the DNS of a french network association providing internet connection and fighting for privacy and network freedom, kinda like them :-)12:06

ubottubrunch875: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI14:54
brunch875yeah, I'm reading that right now...14:55
brunch875I can choose an entry on the live USB but then it hangs14:55

brunch875I just don't understand why liveUSB has stopped working for me. I can't reinstall ubutnu :/14:56
daxUbuntu works fine with UEFI. It may or may not work with secure boot (it's supposed to, but I've had issues). TPM is irrelevant to the boot process unless your firmware's doing something extra fun.14:56

Vuurdraak_on boot time15:23
brunch875OerHeks: turns out disabling UEFI solved the issue15:24
Vuurdraak_not sure hwo that works with a touchpad15:24
brunch875what baffles me is my current ubuntu installation is on UEFI15:24
BluesKajbrunch875, because that's how you installed iUbuntu , UEFI was enabled by default15:25
brunch875BluesKaj: yes, and surprisingly enough 16.10 live usb (which is the same I'm running) doesn't boot anymore on UEFI15:26
Vuurdraak_magic :D15:27
* brunch875 has second thoughts about computer engineering15:27
brunch875should've joined the school of computer wizardry instead15:27
BluesKajbrunch875, well ,you must have set usb boot in legacy mode then15:27
Vuurdraak_computer engineering is done on floor 9 3/4 you have to run through the wal ;)15:28
brunch875BluesKaj: according to wiki, you can tell which mode it's booting on by how the menu displays15:28
brunch875the menu does show in UEFI mode when running UEFI15:29
brunch875but it cannot launch the graphical interface after the menu15:29
brunch875it just gets stuck15:29
brunch875there must be something really fishy going on this laptop's UEFI15:30

john_doe_jrwhen I use the bind command w/ the —keys option…how do I know which keys are acceptable?15:32
ponyriderbrunch875: dhit delete or f2 before you boot15:32
brunch875You mean apart from toggling UEFI on / off on the BIOS and the live USB recognizing this mode, there should also be a setting in the BIOS which overrides UEFI mode on the USB itself?15:33
ponyriderbrunch875: no15:33
ponyriderbrunch875: its a dual boot iso isn't it?15:34
brunch875ponyrider: no, I only ever used ubuntu on this15:34

brunch875but the liveUSB doesn't load on UEFI anymore15:34
ponyriderlets assume its UEFI15:35
brunch875and by that I mean it gets stuck after choosing "try ubuntu" in the menu15:35
BluesKajbrunch875, is the usb stick first in the boot sequnec, if not then it won't boot15:35
brunch875the liveUSB UEFI menu, that is15:35
ponyridermmm.. how are you making the usb15:35
brunch875with the ubuntu creator, as always15:36
brunch875BluesKaj: it does boot from the USB15:36

firasHey guys, how are you doing ? Hope you're doing great ! I'm sorry to interrupt your chat but I'm working on a website http://www.dotslashlinux.com/ , I'll be discussing and reviewing several aspects of the gnu/linux, open-source, FSF world ... I'll be reviewing software, posting builds (minimal builds including a 50mb ram idle with a gui at 64bit) and hopefully make a full featured guide on tuning your own kernel (I've got a .config ready). I'll also post15:37

ponyriderand -i in.mp4.. to the file15:59
ren0v0ponyrider, no read what i said above, it freezes at the start15:59

ponyrider-ss needs to go first IIRC16:01

tewardAnyone know why dnsmasq / Network Manager would suddenly stop accepting DNS requests from the system?  It's breaking DNS on my laptop.16:06
ren0v0ponyrider, it works, not sure if its that or because i'm using it on different container (mkv) instead of (avi)16:07

ren0v0so not related to order, but something else i have no idea about :D16:09
ponyriderWhen used as an input option (before "-i"), seeks in this input16:10
ponyrider           file to position.16:10
k1lkevr: for arm devices you can use a generic iso since there are no generic drivers like there are for the pc platform.16:10
k1l*cant16:10
ponyriderWhen used as an output option (before an output url), decodes but16:10
ponyrider           discards input until the timestamps reach position.16:10
kevrk1l: that's chill16:11
ponyriderthat would be frozen frames16:11
kevrhowever there is a xenial armhf repository that's completely working16:11
kevrso im assuming since there's an amd64 image available for rpi, there's an armhf somewhere16:11
kevrarm64*16:11
kevrsorry, i meant arm64 the whole time heh, not amd6416:12
ren0v0ponyrider, let me run your command/format on it and see16:12

ren0v0ponyrider, yup works on the avi16:12
kevri have an armv7 rpi 316:12

k1lkevr: you do understand that arm and pc are two totally different platforms? and as i said already there cant be ubuntu.iso for all arm devices like there are for the pcs since we dont have the generic open source drivers. so you need a special image just made for the rpi316:18
instigatorRunning the following command does not fix the problem: apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 16126D3A3E5C119216:18
kevryes, i do16:18
kevri completely understand that16:18
k1lok. so ubuntu gives out a basic image, which you still need to adjust to your arm board in use and put the drivers there.16:19
kevrand yes, i know that, which is why im looking for an _armhf_ iso, which i found at the link you posted earlier, but it's a community image, so i was wondering if ubuntu had an official one16:19
kevrnot iso, an image*16:19
kevrright. understandable. however there's only an arm64 iso, there is no default armhf iso16:20
kevrwhich is what i was inquiring about16:20
kevrbecause if i have an armhf strict device, arm64 won't load on a 32-bit system16:20
kevras far as i know.16:21

ppfassume i have a program using mmap/munmap. is there a way, at runtime inside a library (within the same process), to enumerate the mmaps?16:23

V1P3R_LeUnGyes ^^16:26
ppfponyrider: i'm talking about processes and systemcalls16:26
=== V1P3R_LeUnG is now known as CuCus
ponyriderwell, i dont know what your talking about, but i was thinking you would make your nmap function run in the background, pipe stdout to a file and enumerate over the file16:28
ponyriderppf: what did you want to do exactly?16:28
ppfMmap16:29
ponyriderooo16:29
ppfi have a program that mmaps a file into it's address space. and i'd like to be notified whence it munmaps that file16:29
kevrdo you have control over that programs code16:30
kevr?16:30
ppflimited control. i'm a library, the program is my client16:31
kevrgotcha16:31
ponyriderppf: i have noooo idea16:32
ppfi can read /proc/PID/maps, of course. but i'm looking for something more comfortable16:32
ponyriderppf: why are yuo in #ubuntu?16:32
ppfto learn everything there is to know about making pizza16:33
kevrppf: if you don't have control over what the program does, then its kind of tough to get a "clean" solution tbh16:33
kevrid say as a library if there's something dependent on needing to do that between the client and the library, write some type of event function you can fire off when you munmap16:33
kevror provide a function that does both at once to obscure it16:34
ponyridercan yuo access another programs memory?16:34
ppfi was hoping for some sort of hook registration type thing, where the kernel'd call me back if an munmap happens16:34
kevrhmm, im not sure if there's any such facility16:34
kevri mean, you can always select/poll16:34
kevrbut like you said, that's kinda uncomfy16:35
ppfselect  what?16:35
ppf/proc/self/maps?16:35
kevrjust for changes on the maps16:35
kevrseems hacky compared to just registering an event in the library though16:36
ppfyeah but what would i hook the event onto?16:36
ponyriderppf: in bash?16:37
ppfponyrider: in bash?16:37
kevrwhen something is done. i mean, there's a process where you mmap, do something, then munmap. perhaps you could write library functions that handles both mmap and munmap for you, then you can register a callback to fire when the client calls munmap from the lib16:37
kevrthere's gotta be communication some way, i don't think there is a kernel hook for that specifically16:38
kevrthough i could be wrong.16:38
kevri mean it depends what you're doing right, if you don't have access to compiling the client then you're pretty much trying to hack logic into something you can't control, which will be messy regardless16:39
kevrbut if you have access to compiling it, you can just write good code16:39

ponyriderLordLupus: stop doing that!!17:30
LordLupusWhat I did? I need help.17:30
naccsneex: sure, but your command makes no sense17:31
pavlosLordLupus, port 2117:31
naccsneex: tar -cpf is 'create', 'preserve' and write to this file17:31
ponyriderLordLupus: is it just me, or she LordLupus not post his external ip, username/pass on irc?17:31
pavlosponyrider, correct17:32
LordLupusAnd what's wrong.17:32
LordLupusThat's an Ubuntu Server in VirtualBox.17:32
LordLupusWow!17:32
ponyriderLordLupus: thats twice now!17:32
sneex@nacc  very likely -- it was a command I used years ago on debian and I cannot remember the correct syntax; I willhave to play with it some more17:32
pavlosseems we lost Jay__17:33
zykotick9LordLupus: note, FTP is a port nightmare.  you need more then just 21 forwarded!  look into the passive/active ports for ftp.  OR better yet, DON'T use FTP.  ftpmustdie17:34
ponyriderLordLupus: you should change the port number for sure17:34
naccsneex: tar can write directly to a remote, btw17:34
LordLupusOh I know.17:34
LordLupusBut I have to put the passive ports and the passive address?17:35
naccsneex: `man tar` , search down to 'Device selection and switching'17:35
LordLupusOr something like that?17:35
pavlosLordLupus, can you ping that ip?17:35
frozenrouterLordLupus, since I have little knowledge of ftp, and there appears to be a high learning curve to proper configuration, may I suggest an alternative?17:35
LordLupusThat's my IP.17:35
sneex@nacc - hmm, Ive only used sftp with a local transfer and so Im not sure how to get tar to 'ssh' for me17:35
LordLupusI can ping it..17:35
LordLupusYou are free to connect to my server.17:36
ponyriderssh.. maybe too slow?17:36
zykotick9LordLupus: the passive ports are usually a range (one for each transfere is required i believe) and yes they all need to be forwarded to the same box.17:36
LordLupusI gave you the dates.17:36
LordLupusI know, a range.17:36
LordLupusBut why I need the passive ports?17:36
naccsneex: did you read the manpage?17:36
* sneex looking now17:36
LordLupusYes..17:36
frozenrouterdo you need ftp specifically LordLupus, or just to be able to transfer files?17:36
ponyriderfrozenrouter: suggest17:37
shinesquit17:37
LordLupusI just want to connect to my FTP Server through the external IP Address (109.103.151.25). Actually I can connect to it using the internal IP Address (192.168.100.118)17:38
ponyrideroh jesus!!17:38
frozenrouterif you have a gnu/linux system on the other end, use the scp command included with most ssh software17:38
LordLupusSorry for my bad english.17:38
cuddylierHow would I configure a KVM bridge to use IPs received from a GRE tunnel?17:38
ponyriderLordLupus: i like frozenrouter's idea, but when you make a rsa key make its alot bit number otherwise transfers will be too slow17:39
ponyriderLordLupus: can you STOP posting your ip addresses!17:39
LordLupusWell, I can't configure it. I entered here cause of that.17:40

hiro`Hey, I'm doing a reinstall of my system after it got into a bit of a state and I wondering if there's a good way to check if software is suitable for my machine (running xenial). E.g., the slack desktop client says that it's suitable for "ubuntu", but is it okay to install or should I be worried about it installing the wrong version of dependencies?17:42
tgm4883LordLupus: step 1, don't use FTP17:42
sneex@nacc  Im sorry, I almost have it -- the ssh works, and the local tar works but the data isn't showing on the remote - it justs pokes out on the terminal :(  I'll figure it out -- Thanks for letting me know that 'tar' should be able to do this :)17:42
frozenrouterhiro`: common software that provides a .deb package is normally fine to just install17:43
hiro`frozenrouter: so I don't need to worry about it explicitly targeting my version?17:44
nacchiro`: only install packages for xenial (16.04)17:44
hiro`nacc: how do I check?17:44
nacchiro`: presumably the vendor you are getting the package from will say17:45
sneex@nacc Im going to play with the syntax from http://www.commandlinefu.com/commands/view/9892/create-a-local-compressed-tarball-from-remote-host-directory  and see what rabbit hole that leads me  :)  lol  Anyways you guys have funsies ;)17:45
naccsneex: good luck17:45
frozenrouterhiro`: I have had no problems with installing .deb packages on any systems, since it interacts with package management to ensure dependencies are met. If there is a 16.04 specific package/version, use that17:45
hiro`nacc: for e.g., in the case of slack, I don't think it does. perhaps I'm missing something obvious, though: https://slack.com/downloads/instructions/ubuntu17:46
hiro`It just says "ubuntu"17:46
nacchiro`: you're right and maybe they are good at maintaining compatbility across all versions17:46
nacchiro`: i have no idea, and for support you should ask slack17:47
frozenrouterhiro`: I think that, based on my previous experience with .deb packages, any problems will probably be caught, and dependencies have usually been sorted by the software centre17:49
hiro`frozenrouter: cool, I will take your advice and install17:50
hiro`is there a good article for ubuntu that explains "here's what to do if you don't want your system to break"?17:51
nacchiro`: don't use third-party applications is probably a reasonable start :)17:51
nacchiro`: but no, i don't think any such thing exists17:52
hiro`shame. it feels pretty mysterious at times!17:52
ouroumovActually there's an easy way. If you've got the RAM: install a duplicate of your system in a VM, and set a snapshot point.17:52
frozenrouterhiro`: I don't know of any articles, but making a backup is usually the simplest way to make sure that the system can be set to a working state.17:53
ouroumovThen, don't ever do stuff on the host, untill you've verified it doesn't break your VM.17:53
naccouroumov: ah yes, that's a good point17:53
naccouroumov: i interpreted their question slightly differently17:53
ouroumovWell, my solution is not exactly user friendly either17:53
naccouroumov: yeah :)17:54
frozenrouterhiro`: You could set up a blank ubuntu vm and try installing the package to make sure that it does not break anything if a backup is not easy.17:54
hiro`unfortunately, there's probably not enough time in the day to do that.17:54
hiro`what about installing PPAs. Is this considered acceptable or the road to madness and pain?17:55
nacchiro`: PPAs are not supported officially17:55
hiro`so, the latter, in other words?17:55
frozenrouterhiro`: If I remember right, I have set up LUbuntu VMs in as little as 15 minutes17:55
nacchiro`: and have (generally) no security model, meaning the owner is under no obligation to fix issues17:56
=== Huck_Fumble is now known as ThePortWhisperer
frozenrouterhiro`: In other words, if you consider the maintainer and package trustworthy, and are willing and able to look after the system yourself if needed, PPAs can be an option, otherwise try to avoid them.17:58
nacchiro`: the underlying thing to consider is you're technically giving PPA owners root on your machine17:58
hiro`hmm, pity17:59
nacchiro`: how comfortable you are with that is up to you :)17:59
hiro`I might try setting up something in docker to test-drive a few packages17:59
* nacc would argue lxd would be faster than docker for testing, but also doesn't use docker at all18:00

wedgieLordLupus: FTP is a VERY old protocol and does some really odd things network-wise that makes it a pain in the age of NAT and firewalls. SFTP or HTTP would be FAR simpler and will do what you want. If you just need a place to pull things from, go with HTTP. If you need to upload stuff too, sftp19:29

LordLupusOkay.19:33
LordLupusSorry.19:33
LordLupusBut who will help me with my problem?19:34
Ben64people have been trying19:34
Ben64you need to listen19:34
LordLupusI read all messages.19:34
OerHeksLordLupus, portscan says tcp://109.103.151.25:21 is opened (service:ftp) tcp://109.103.151.25:22 is opened (service:ssh) so try again, with :21 specified19:35
OerHeksfree service, limited.19:35
OerHekshttps://support.nightlydev.org/tcp-udp-port-scan19:35
adityaduggaltatertots, I just checked by booting into a live CD and found that the resolution was 1024x768 in the live CD as well19:35
MungerLordLupus, http://askubuntu.com/questions/46930/how-can-i-set-up-password-less-ssh-login19:36
LordLupusOkay, I'll try ftp://109.103.151.25:2119:36
tatertotsadityaduggal: then you are at the limitation of what your configuration can do...unfortunate i know..19:36
al2o3-cradityaduggal: one sec let me check my gists19:36
adityaduggaltatertots, what could be the reason for this problem? surely the video card and the monito are capable of giving a higher resolution19:36
LordLupusOk. :(19:36
Ben64adityaduggal: what is the output of xrandr19:37
al2o3-cradityaduggal: `xrandr --newmode 1360x768_60.00 84.75 1360 1432 1568 1776 768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync`19:37
nacctatertots: adityaduggal: you can take a look in the logs and see if the card reports higher via EDID and then add them, as al2o3-cr says19:37
tatertotsBen64: adityaduggal 's  xrandr http://paste.ubuntu.com/24216954/19:37
naccalthough it would be good to debug why X doesn't like using them if they are defined19:37
Ben64well it seems to indicate a maximum of 1024x76819:38
tatertotsBen64: yep it sure does doesn't it19:38
al2o3-cradityaduggal: `xrandr --newmode 1360x768_60.00 84.75 1360 1432 1568 1776 768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync` type this in terminal19:38
tatertotsadityaduggal: you can try what al2o3-cr is suggesting with that command....don't be shocked if it results in error19:39
LordLupusI hope I'll be able to connect to my FTP server through the external IP Address.19:39
tatertotsadityaduggal: actually please do try it...and if it results in error please do say so19:39
adityaduggalal2o3-cr, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24217007/19:40
Ben64LordLupus: you really need to stop using ftp19:40
al2o3-cradityaduggal: now this `xrandr --addmode VGA1 1360x768_60.00`19:40
LordLupusNo. I want to use it.19:41
adityaduggalthis did change the resolution19:41
al2o3-cradityaduggal: lastly `xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1360x768_60.00`19:41
Ben64LordLupus: well don't. it's bad19:41
LordLupusBut the official guide is a ...19:41
LordLupus:(.19:41
adityaduggalal2o3-cr, nothing happened19:41
LordLupus@echo off19:41
adityaduggalwith the last command19:41
naccLordLupus: so far the only reason you've said you want to use ftp is because you don't want passwords19:41
LordLupusecho Goodbye 220V or 20m :).19:41
al2o3-crcan you change your resolution now?19:42
naccLordLupus: and someone provided an exact description of how to use passwordless ssh19:42
al2o3-cr^ adityaduggal19:42
LordLupusReally?19:42
Ben64and ssh is superior in every way19:42
LordLupusI know.19:42
Ben64you don't seem to19:42
LordLupusBut I really need FTP.19:42
naccLordLupus: yes, and you ignored them, because you insist on using ftp without reason19:42
Ben64nobody needs ftp19:42
LordLupusBecause ftp://ip, no ssh:// or sftp://19:42
adityaduggalal2o3-cr, can I also add another resolution directly in VGA1 mode19:42
LordLupusI need it ;). I'm sure about that.19:42
naccLordLupus: that's not even a sentence.19:42
al2o3-cradityaduggal: sure19:42
LordLupusSo, I'm an idiot?19:43
adityaduggalal2o3-cr, would it last after reboot19:43
LordLupusOr something like that?19:43
naccLordLupus: at this point, I think you're trolling the channel.19:43
Ben64LordLupus: stubborn and refusing to listen to good advice19:43
LordLupusI tried.19:43
al2o3-cradityaduggal: try it and see :P19:43
Ben64you really didn't19:43
LordLupusI did it -_-.19:43
LordLupusI entered on this channel for support.19:44
LordLupusIf you want, kick me!19:44
adityaduggalal2o3-cr, I am getting this: xrandr: cannot find mode "1440x900_60.00"19:45
adityaduggaland it seems that 1360x768 is not the best resolution for my screen I think it used to be either 1440 one or 1920 one19:46
al2o3-cradityaduggal: did you get 1360x768?19:46
adityaduggalal2o3-cr, Yes I am currently on that resolution though its better than 1024x768 but it still does not seem right19:47
Ben64adityaduggal: what monitor is it19:47
al2o3-cradityaduggal: try 1920 then19:47
tgm4883LordLupus: FTP is something you want to use, which is perfectly valid however recommended against. The server guide should be able to get you there. In this channel, you'll find people may be hesitant to help with any FTP issue19:47
Ben64because ftp is older than most of the people here, totally not secure, and just a pain in the rear19:48
adityaduggalal2o3-cr, https://www.cnet.com/products/samsung-syncmaster-943nw-lcd-monitor-19-series/specs/19:48
LordLupusOk, I have to ask then?19:48
Ben64adityaduggal: 1440x90019:49
MungerLordLupus, Let's rephrase the question. What is your objection to using passwordless sftp with private key access? It is 1000 times more secure and actually easier to use.19:49
tgm4883Munger: my guess is he wants anonymous login19:49
adityaduggalal2o3-cr, I think I would need to create a new-mode before I could add that mode19:49
al2o3-cryep19:49
LordLupusYes, I know, but I can upload bots on my IRC Channel only through a FTP Server (Public FTP Server) without login.19:50
adityaduggalso should I just run the new mode command again with the 1920 or other values for hsync and vsync change19:50
tgm4883LordLupus: *using the perl script you have19:50
LordLupusYes.19:50
al2o3-cradityaduggal: no, let me create on from the spec for you19:50
al2o3-cr*one19:51
Ben64LordLupus: what stops anyone else in the world from uploading crap to your ftp then?19:51
tgm4883LordLupus: let's not leave out any details ok ;)19:51
LordLupusAnd the perl script - ... $server = "ftp://ip/bot.php" ... $channel = "#Arena" ...19:51
Ben64seems like a great way to get hacked19:51
LordLupusAnd bot.php - ... $server = "109.103.151.25"19:51
LordLupus$channel is in bot.php, sorry.19:51
tgm4883Ben64: people on the internet wouldn't do that. We're all trustworthy ;)19:51
Ben64LordLupus: find a better way. seriously.19:52
tgm4883LordLupus: I don't think ... is valid perl19:52
al2o3-cradityaduggal: xrandr --newmode "1440x900_75.00" 136.49 1440 1536 1688 1936 900 901 904 940 -HSync +Vsync19:52
LordLupusIt's a big perl code.19:53
Ben64LordLupus: just to upload something?19:53
LordLupusBots.19:53
LordLupusTo my IRC Channel.19:53
LordLupusOn Server.19:53
Ben64is that a yes?19:53
tgm4883LordLupus: that's what pastebin is for19:53
MungerWow! That ftp server really is wide open. Damned if I would use it19:53
Ben64LordLupus: it uploads something somewhere, correct?19:53
LordLupusOn my IRC Channel - Users 9bots)19:54
LordLupus(bots)*19:54
Ben64IS THAT A YES19:54
LordLupusYes.19:54
Ben64jesus19:54
LordLupusSomething like that.19:54
tatertotsit's not like there's any super sensitive data in there...consumers rarely have data worth anything to any supposed hacker19:54
Ben64do it with ssh and one line of bash19:54
tgm4883LordLupus: omg, yes we get it. Bots, irc, server. YOu don't need to keep repeating that19:54
Ben64you're doing it the absolute dumbest way possible19:54
Ben64stop it now19:54
Ben64use a reasonable method19:55
Ben64there's a reason there is a huge amount of pushback on your intended way. it's BAD.19:55
LordLupusI can't with sftp.19:55
tgm4883tatertots: i'd be more inclined to think it would become a warez dump19:55
Ben64why not19:55
tgm4883Ben64: because the script he has doesn't support it19:55
charlie_sandersscp is really quite easy19:55
Ben64thats why make a new script19:55
tgm4883Ben64: script kiddies don't write their own scripts19:55
LordLupus...19:56
adityaduggalal2o3-cr, added the 1440x900 mode but did not change my resolution to that....19:56
LordLupusI do not know perl!!!19:56
Ben64it doesn't need to be perl!!!!!19:56
MungerThen use bash19:56
LordLupusI know just HTML, CSS, VB.NET and some PHP.19:56
al2o3-cradityaduggal: xrandr --addmode VGA1 1440x900_75.00`19:56
LordLupusI know.19:56
LordLupusBut I don't know other methods.19:56
Ben64so ask19:56
Ben64instead of trying to push through your terrible way19:57
MungerThere is an sftp server on that IP too19:57
LordLupusI know.19:57
tgm4883LordLupus: Ok, so when you use this perl script to upload a bot. What exactly ends up on the FTP server, a file of some sort?19:57
LordLupusIt's mine :).19:57
Ben64so use it19:57
charlie_sandersadityaduggal, you have to add the mode, then change it in the preferences ... that just adds the option not change the resolution19:57
LordLupusOk, let me to show you:19:57
tgm4883ok19:58
MungerSo put you public key on there and change the single line in the script to use it.19:58
LordLupusperl x.pl >> ftp://...bot.php/ >> bot.php >> IRC Channel >> Bots19:58
al2o3-cradityaduggal: xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1440x900_75.00`19:58

adityaduggalal2o3-cr, I am presuming that these settings would not just vanish on reboot or any update20:00

joedenverCarlFK: just not sure, whether it will like clonezilla format21:30
CarlFKjoedenver: yay!  you can also run clonezilla (sudo maybe) and get a menu gui thing that asks lots of questions.  then it both does it and gives you the command line params21:31

dh128I'm losing my mind. How can I set bootloader in Ubuntu installation?23:18
naccdh128: 'set bootloader'? you don't gneerally need to do that manually23:19
dh128I currently have Windows and Manjaro Linux installed. GParted tells me /dev/sda2 (100MB FAT32) is the EFI partition, but no matter what combination I try I can't get GRUB to recognize Ubuntu upon installation23:19

ubottusa7en: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/23:32
naccsa7en: also spamming the channel is increidbly annoying23:32
Bashing-omdh128: If Windows and windows is EFI, it is a real pain to IF ubuntu is installed leagacy to convert the boot loader . Can be done but above my present skill set . Much faster to just re-install ubuntu in EFI mode .23:36
dh128Bashing-om: windows and manjaro are EFI. I chose sda, here goes nothing23:38
