[00:13] <bigsec30> Hi
[00:13] <bigsec30> How do I have my IP remove?
[00:18] <slavanap> Hello. Anyone familiar with Epson Dot Matrix printers configuration and testing here?
[00:23] <lukkan99> free succ
[00:34] <louperivois> Hello, I have problems to configure my Canon P-150 scanner on Mint. I compiled a driver for Linux but I don't think it gets loaded.
[00:42] <jimkay> anyone use hexchat on ubuntu
[00:42] <acheron-a> jimkay, yes, using it now
[00:44] <louperivois> so we can see you dont come for a problem with Hexchat
[00:50] <Jordan_U> !mint | louperivois
[00:50] <louperivois> i do
[00:51] <Jordan_U> louperivois: You do what?
[00:51] <louperivois> im asking this question on 3 different channels
[00:51] <louperivois> the problem is the same for debian, ubunto and mint
[00:51] <Jordan_U> louperivois: In the future please do not ask your questions about Linux Mint here.
[00:55] <jimkay> hey acheron-a
[00:55] <acheron-a> jimkay, hi there
[00:58] <jimkay> I get an error when I start HexChat saying it doesn't have write access to config, and it doesn't save any configuration
[00:58] <jimkay> any idea?
[00:59] <jimkay> exact error is this "You do not have write access to /home/jimkay/.config/hexchat. Nothing from this session can be saved."
[00:59] <acheron-a> odd
[00:59] <acheron-a> have you checked the permissions of that directory?
[00:59] <jimkay> I googled but didn't find much
[01:00] <jimkay> that'd probably be a good idea. I forget the command to use for that
[01:00] <jimkay> haven't used linux in years
[01:01] <minimec> jimkay: The folder is probably .HexChat or .config/HexChat in your /home directory.
[01:02] <jimkay> You do not have write access to /home/jimkay/.config/hexchat. Nothing from this session can be saved.
[01:03] <acheron-a> chown -c root:yourusername /home/*/.config/hexchat
[01:04] <minimec> jimkay: I would go with 'chown -R $USER:$USER /home/jimkay/.config/hexchat'
[01:04] <jimkay> changed ownership of '/home/jimkay/.config/hexchat' from root:root to root:jimkay
[01:04] <jimkay> was that it?
[01:05] <OerHeks> just delete that folder, and restart hexchat. that chown command misses -R
[01:05] <acheron-a> that should do it
[01:06] <jimkay> ok, how do I delete that folder? sorry am noob
[01:07] <jimkay> I'm still getting the error
[01:12] <cfoch-always> hi
[01:12] <jimkay> hey
[01:12] <deadevilboy> hi
[01:12] <cfoch-always> is this the right channel to ask about "bazaar"?
[01:12] <Perigee> Could someone help me troubleshoot bluetooth connectivity? For some reason my Logitech MX Anywhere 2 mouse does not show up when scanning for devices. But, I know it works, as my phone can pick it up. Running Ubuntu 16.04 on a new Dell XPS 13.
[01:13] <Perigee> I can find other bluetooth devices though, such as my phone, from my laptop.
[01:13] <Perigee> its weird
[01:13] <minimec> Perigee: http://askubuntu.com/questions/741330/how-do-i-get-logitech-mx-anywhere-2-to-work-in-16-04-bluetooth-smart
[01:14] <Perigee> Wow
[01:14] <Jordan_U> cfoch-always: If you're referring to the revision control system, and if you're using it in Ubuntu, then it's on topic here. I'm not sure if this is the best channel to get an answer, but I don't off hand know of a better one.
[01:15] <jimkay> hexchat is cool, I wish it would save my settings
[01:15] <Musiic> xd
[01:15] <Musiic> Hola
[01:16] <cfoch-always> Musiic: hola
[01:16] <jimkay> yo
[01:16] <Musiic> Quien es mujer :v
[01:17] <Cane> does anyone know how I change my sudo password in terminal
[01:17] <Perigee> minimec: nothing coming up on scan, so it looks like my problem may be a bit different.
[01:19] <minimec> Perigee: Is the mouse in 'connecting mode'?
[01:20] <Perigee> minimec: Yea
[01:20] <Perigee> minimec: Phone picks it up
[01:20] <Perigee> minimec: I'm wondering if it's a "smart/LE" issue
[01:20] <Perigee> from what I'm reading
[01:21] <tatertots> Perigee: let me guess...you only have 1 single bluetooth device to work with right?
[01:22] <tatertots> Perigee: if someone were to ask if your computer can pair with any OTHER bluetooth device your response would have to be "i don't know" because you only have that bluetooth mouse correct?
[01:22] <Perigee> tatertots: No, I have a ton. Not sure if I have other LE ones though, as I'm not sure which are. I can turn my phone on into discovery mode and it shows up. I can probably try other devices too if needed
[01:23] <tatertots> Perigee: does your computer pair with any OTHER bluetooth devices? yes or no...if you don't know...find out
[01:23] <Jordan_U> Cane: *Carefully* run 'sudo chown -R "$USER:$USER" /home/jimkay/.config/hexchat' and in the future never run applications as root unless you *know* both that the app needs to be run as root *and* that the app was designed to be run as root. (For hexchat neither are the case).
[01:24] <minimec> Perigee: You may be right with that 'smar/LE' suggestion, although there seems a way to get these devices discovered and connected. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1576986
[01:26] <minimec> Perigee: That guy seems to be able to connect the mouse but complains that not all the 'features' (batt stat indicator) are available.
[01:27] <jimkay> thanks, it worked. not sure how I ran it as root.
[01:31] <minimec> Perigee: I forgot the link of the second bug on launchpad... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/1673230
[01:32] <Perigee> minimec: tatertots: So I can pair to my Plantronics headset as well, though I believe that is not LE either.
[01:32] <Perigee> I'll check the links
[01:35] <j4f-shredder> hey, how do I install driver for intel i5 graphics?
[01:35] <j4f-shredder> I have i5 4590
[01:35] <j4f-shredder> for some reason vmware doesnt recognize direct3d from thehost
[01:36] <j4f-shredder> it comes with onboard graphics HD 4600
[01:37] <minimec> Perigee: Oh. I see now that the first bug was filed for 'ubuntu touch'... I don't now if this also applies to normal ubuntu.  I
[01:38] <minimec> Perigee: Do you use the dongle that comes with the mouse? If not, is your bluetooh receiver on your computer BLE compatible?
[01:40] <minimec> Oups... I 'lost' an hour 30 min. ago. Guess it's 'bed time'...
[01:43] <rizonz> someone using systemd.link ? My intefaces don't get renamed on mac match and link name change
[01:45] <jimkay> how do I change my sudo password
[01:46] <tatertots> j4f-shredder: driver for your intel graphics is already in use, no further action or human intervention is required
[01:48] <j4f-shredder> I'm usign ubuntu 16.10
[01:48] <j4f-shredder> the thing is that I need to activate it on vmware
[01:48] <flickering> hi all, is it possible to downgrade from version 16.10 to 16.04 without a fresh install?  i have a problem with my screen flickering.
[01:48] <j4f-shredder> when I turn on the machine
[01:48] <j4f-shredder> it says that 3d is not activated from the host
[01:50] <Musiic> hola
[01:50] <tatertots> j4f-shredder: then you should activate 3d acceleration for the vm
[01:51] <Musiic> hola
[01:52] <jimkay> hey Musiic
[01:52] <Musiic> ??
[01:52] <j4f-shredder> no 3d support is available from the host
[01:53] <CountXuan> hello
[01:53] <CountXuan> 有中文？
[01:53] <jimkay> yo
[01:53] <tatertots> j4f-shredder: if that is fact..then you're are "blank" out of luck
[01:53] <CountXuan> I'm first time to use this .
[01:54] <j4f-shredder> sudo apt-get install libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0
[01:54] <j4f-shredder> that is what im supposed to install
[01:55] <jimkay> does anyone know how to change user password in ubuntu
[01:56] <jimkay> I'm trying to change the password that get's asked when doing sudo.
[01:56] <tatertots> j4f-shredder: what ever you do, if it doesn't change the fact that "no 3d support is available from the host" you are still ultimately "blank" out of luck
[01:57] <seednode> passwd, or passwd [username] if run as someone else
[01:57] <rizonz> mhh systemd rename interfaces doesn't work as espected
[01:57] <rizonz> *expected
[01:58] <jimkay> thanks seednode it worked
[01:58] <seednode> Excellent
[01:59] <jimkay> am so noob
[01:59] <jimkay> next ill ask if you can wipe my butt
[01:59] <CountXuan> who can tell me which e-mail client is much better one; my English is not bad ..... who can help me
[02:03] <j4f-shredder> tatertots: I already fixed it
[02:03] <j4f-shredder> gedit $HOME/.vmware/preferences
[02:04] <j4f-shredder> and you add mks.gl.allowBlacklistedDrivers = "TRUE"
[02:04] <j4f-shredder> on the host machine
[02:22] <themyth> hey
[02:38] <LibertyWeNeed> Hi, my mom is getting a new laptop. A lenovo T470 with Huawei LTE 4G built in. Will this functionality work if I put Ubuntu on it?
[02:39] <LibertyWeNeed> Or does she need to use windows?
[02:49] <LibertyWeNeed> actually I might have got the brand name wrong, It probably isn't huawei, but if anyone has an answer please advise .

[03:02] <sfdebug> does anyone here lives on usa?
[03:07] <CodeMouse92__> !offtopic | sfdebug
[03:07] <sfdebug> CodeMouse92__, do you know a channel where can i talk with ppl that lives on usa?
[03:08] <CodeMouse92__> sfdebug: There are some in that one, AND in this one. Ppl from all over the world in fact. But, unless it's a support question, it doesn't belong in this room. :)
[03:09] <magical_powers> ok, so something has happened where I can no longer put files on a usb via the gui
[03:09] <magical_powers> ubuntu 16.04
[03:10] <magical_powers> have all the permissions, write protection isn't on. I can touch files in a command line, but I cant make files via gui
[03:15] <ac2> Hey, this is a rather broad question but does anyone know if EVGA graphics card are compatible with ubuntu?
[03:16] <Volund> SO I'd like to be able to 'listen' to my Line-In. I've only found on way to do this>>> pactl load-module module-loopback
[03:16] <Volund> the problem therein is this also listens to a Mic...
[03:16] <Volund> Are there other methods I'm overlooking?
[03:17] <Bashing-om> ac2: Why would they not be ? ( I run an EVGA nVidia GT710 card ) .
[03:17] <adu> uwhere is the ubuntu-vagrant room?
[03:17] <chuck66> ac2: ubuntu supports NVIDIA graphics cards of any brand
[03:19] <adu> when is this going to get looked at? https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-images/+bug/1569237
[03:19] <ac2> Bashing-om: hey, the gt710 is the one I was looking at, do you use it for multiple displays?
[03:20] <LibertyWeNeed> tatertots, mother won't let me take windows off it unless It is garenteed. She is a school teacher so she needs the computer working. By the way I got the model wrong it was t460
[03:20] <ac2> chuck66: thanks chuck good to know
[03:22] <Bashing-om> ac2: No I do dot use but one display ( several work spaces in 2 displays )  But the card has 3 ports out .
[03:25] <ac2> Bashing-om: sorry mind claifying, so you only use two of the ports for multiple displays...
[03:27] <Bashing-om> ac2: My bad terminology . NO, I have but the one monitor that I can switch between 2 dispalys ( TTY7 and TTY8 in which I have 4 work spaces in each ) .
[03:28] <tatertots> LibertyWeNeed: best to leave it be then..try not to force linux onto friends and family...let them come to the linux side on their own free will
[03:28] <LibertyWeNeed> They are willing, but only if it works.
[03:29] <LibertyWeNeed> Because They got a thinkpad instead of buying a new macbook pro which was too expensive
[03:29] <tatertots> LibertyWeNeed: you can't make any such guarantees
[03:29] <LibertyWeNeed> ok
[03:29] <LibertyWeNeed> understood
[03:29] <tatertots> LibertyWeNeed: so don't get yourself caught up in that fight
[03:29] <LibertyWeNeed> I just thought someone here may have had experience doing this before.
[03:30] <Bashing-om> LibertyWeNeed: What you do is boot up a liveUSB - If all works and all like what they see. then for the 1st year one dual boots . Never a good idea to go Windows cold turkey !
[03:30] <tatertots> LibertyWeNeed: consumers / end users have this uncanny ability to nit pick and find that one little thing that doesn't work without linux knowledge or some fiddling...once they find that...and they will...they will beat you up with it
[03:31] <ac2> Bashing-om: it sounds like you're running a type of virtual enviornment
[03:32] <tatertots> LibertyWeNeed: so don't put yourself in that situation
[03:32] <tatertots> LibertyWeNeed: do what you will...but don't say i didn't tell you so
[03:32] <Bashing-om> ac2: Nope .. all bare metal . X is very versatile .
[03:33] <LibertyWeNeed> Basing-om, sounds like a good and safer idea. to try booting off a USB rather than installing it just to test it out.
[03:33] <LibertyWeNeed> tatertots, I agree with you
[03:33] <ac2> Bashing-om: you're running xUbuntu?
[03:34] <LibertyWeNeed> How do I create a live USB? Do I just use an ubuntu installation usb or is this something different?
[03:34] <Bashing-om> LibertyWeNeed: 'buntu is very considerate and provides a "try ubuntu" mode :)
[03:35] <LibertyWeNeed> Does that have the same full functionality as a native install on the hardware?
[03:35] <LibertyWeNeed> Or is it temporary?
[03:35] <Bashing-om> ac2: Actually I multi-boot . but yes, xfce is my prefered DE .
[03:37] <Bashing-om> LibertyWeNeed: There can be varing levels of "persistence" if one makes up a liveUSB . Performance will be no where close to that of the install to hard drive .
[03:39] <ac2> Bashing-om: nicce, thanks for all the tips, still a tad confused on how you're using the graphics card's multiple outputs on one monitor to create multiple workspaces
[03:39] <blockhead> can anybody help me an issue with a bluetooth headset, pulseaudio and a2dp?
[03:41] <flyinprogrammer> (i don't think this was ever actually sent, but sorry if it was already!) ok smart wizardry folks, someone want to explain these iperf3 results to me? http://pastebin.com/6YayrDgW  tl;dr i'm getting 60k+ retries between 2 virtualbox machines
[03:47] <Bashing-om> ac2: in xfce4: one can do ' ctl+alt+f2 ; startx -- :1 ; ctl+alt+f8 ' . Then you have full GUIs running in both TTY7 and TTY8 .
[03:49] <blockhead> W: [pulseaudio] module-bluetooth-device.c: Profile not connected, refused to switch profile to a2dp
[03:49] <blockhead> can somebody help me understand this?

[05:32] <cfoch-always> hi
[05:32] <toast13> Hi. I've installed Ubuntu 17.04beta2 with an encrypted home. Now I've got the problem that the swap file cannot be mounted and the boot process waits 90s to continue. Any solution available?
[05:33] <cfoch-always> does someone use bzr here?

[05:40] <cfoch-always> how do I see my current branch in bazaar?
[05:42] <cfoch-always> or is it just the name of the current directory?

[06:35] <SemiNus> ^ any kind of help would be appreciated
[06:35] <EriC^^> SemiNus: did you run mkfs on it?
[06:36] <lotuspsychje> SemiNus: have you tried formatting it with gparted?
[06:36] <SemiNus> EriC^^, no - am I supposed to?
[06:36] <EriC^^> mkfs.fat /dev/sdxY
[06:36] <SemiNus> lotuspsychje, no, I sticked to the shell so far
[06:36] <EriC^^> SemiNus: yes, that only sets the partition type (which really means nothing)
[06:36] <SemiNus> EriC^^, thank you for the tip.  I format it now (using the command you told me)
[06:37] <SemiNus> # mkfs.fat /dev/sdb1
[06:37] <SemiNus> mkfs.fat 4.0 (2016-05-06)

[06:37] <EriC^^> no problem
[06:38] <SemiNus> sorry for bothering, I got one more problem
[06:38] <SemiNus> the sd-card is fat32 formatted and should not know anything about user rights / permissions
[06:38] <SemiNus> however, when I try to write the card with user privileges, I cannot write it
[06:39] <EriC^^> SemiNus: when you mount it as root it gets all the perms set to root
[06:39] <SemiNus> that was _never_ like that
[06:39] <EriC^^> so you have to do gksu nautilus to copy files or use sudo from the terminal
[06:40] <SemiNus> I always mounted my external drives as root and used them as user
[06:40] <EriC^^> from the terminal? or mounted them from the filemanager?
[06:40] <SemiNus> EriC^^, I do not use the graphical tools at all
[06:40] <SemiNus> sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1
[06:41] <SemiNus> touch /mnt/sdb1/foo
[06:41] <EriC^^> maybe it mounted them with 777 as permissions?
[06:41] <SemiNus> ah, wait I have an idea
[06:41] <SemiNus> I should chown /mnt/sdb1 to user
[06:41] <SemiNus> brb
[06:41] <EriC^^> ok
[06:43] <ausafali88_> anyone knows how to troubleshoot Ubuntu Random freeze issues?
[06:43] <ausafali88_> When everything freezes, mouse SSH etc. and even no logs are writeen.
[06:45] <SemiNus> EriC^^, thank you for your help!
[06:45] <SemiNus> have a great day!
[06:45] <EriC^^> thanks you too!
[06:49] <pooinass> I had to uninstall Ubuntu for like 6 times just because I wasn't able to update update because of some key error
[06:54] <rymax99> pooinass, you 'uninstalled' ubuntu because of what's likely a missing key for whatever repo you were using?
[06:54] <rymax99> that's very fixable without having to re-install the OS
[06:54] <pooinass> I tried everything. Tried fixing the keyring error and yet it was still persisting
[06:54] <lotuspsychje> !details | ausafali88_
[06:55] <rymax99> definitely something that's fixable without resorting to that
[07:00] <ausafali88_> @ubottu version is 16.10, Errors: No errors are displayed, sceen just gets stuck, mouse pointer does not move. Steps: Have reinstalled graphic drivers andrun memtest86+ without any avail, Hardware Version: Dell XPS 8700
[07:00] <ausafali88_> http://askubuntu.com/questions/4408/what-should-i-do-when-ubuntu-freezes
[07:00] <ausafali88_> as per this link, i reach the last point "power-cysle the machine".
[07:03] <dieterd> there was last week a bug with glibc/libc last week, hitting pts2 and very rarely freeze.
[07:03] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: what kinf of graphics drivers did you reinstall?
[07:04] <ausafali88_> NVIDIA
[07:04] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: wich driver version? wich card chipset?
[07:04] <ausafali88_> GT720
[07:04] <ausafali88_> Am using default Dell XPS 8700
[07:05] <ausafali88_> Processor isi5-4660
[07:05] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: sudo lshw -C video to see driver= version?
[07:07] <arek> hi
[07:08] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: unclaimed means not installed
[07:09] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: check your additional drivers section
[07:10] <azizLIGHT> something is churning my hard drives (i have / on ssd) and i want to know what it is and whos doing it
[07:10] <azizLIGHT> how do i see what files are being written to/read from currently and their paths
[07:11] <ausafali88_> @lotuspsyche....currently its Xorg...should i change to NVIDIA?
[07:12] <ausafali88_> @lotuspsyche ...?
[07:12] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: you need to check wich driver version is available for your card first, check additional drivers
[07:13] <tatertots> ausafali88_: are you able to reproduce this "freeze" at will? or is it a random intermittent occurrence
[07:13] <ausafali88_> Random
[07:13] <ausafali88_> Additional drivers are nvidia 375.39
[07:14] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: ok, install 375 and reboot?
[07:15] <tatertots> ausafali88_: had the symptom been observed immediately after installing ubuntu? or did the symptom begin to occur more recently?
[07:15] <ausafali88_> installed these drivers yesterday but to no avail...
[07:15] <ausafali88_> immediately.
[07:15] <ausafali88_> Ubuntu on my other systems working fine.
[07:15] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: what do you mean, not available?
[07:16] <tatertots> i think the user means they installed the drivers yesterday and still had lockups/freezes
[07:16] <tatertots> if i had to guess
[07:16] <ausafali88_> yes exactly.
[07:16] <lotuspsychje> right
[07:16] <ausafali88_> no avail..means to no use.
[07:16] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: but lets first start with a working driver, keeping it unclaimed is not supposed to be
[07:17] <ausafali88_> ok...doing that..
[07:17] <ausafali88_> hope this goes well, this is our main virtuilization server..
[07:18] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: wait? 16.10 server?
[07:18] <tatertots> ausafali88_: random lockups/freezing and it's your main server?.....seems odd...wouldn't that be disruptive
[07:18] <tatertots> ausafali88_: and non reliable
[07:18] <ausafali88_> yes it is...
[07:19] <ausafali88_> and it is affecting my reputation here...
[07:19] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: choose an LTS version for a server
[07:19] <tatertots> ausafali88_: well i guess its a good thing its not a production/commercial environment with paying customers then....or you'd be in the red
[07:19] <cfhowlett> +1 for LTS only server suggestion
[07:20] <tatertots> ausafali88_: does the symptom occur with other versions of ubuntu?
[07:20] <ausafali88_> It occured with 14.04..
[07:20] <ausafali88_> but went away with driver installation..
[07:21] <ausafali88_> but it is not going now..
[07:22] <tatertots> ausafali88_: 14.04 lts would have been supported until 2019...any particular reason you decided to ditch something that worked?
[07:22] <ausafali88_> ditched that for advanced software...and now am ditched in an advanced way..beyond my understanding.
[07:23] <tatertots> ausafali88_: lol..well its good to see you have a healthy sense of humor about it
[07:24] <ausafali88_> has it anything to do with Processor drivers,,because i can see Unknown:Unknown device after that iin Additional Drivers.
[07:24] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: using non-lts ubuntu version for a production server is not really stable thing to do..
[07:24] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: how about you reinstall ubuntu server 16.04.2 freshly and try again?
[07:25] <ausafali88_> Using processor microcode firmware from Intel CPU intel-microcode(proprietary)
[07:25] <ausafali88_> can we drag this thing till 17.04 is released..
[07:25] <ausafali88_> any tip.
[07:25] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: 17.04 is also non-lts
[07:25] <ausafali88_> so this doesn't occur till 17.04 is relased.
[07:26] <ausafali88_> muy goodness.
[07:26] <ausafali88_> ok..will try to move to LTS.
[07:27] <lotuspsychje> ausafali88_: if your going to install servers for daily use, you can install random versions
[07:27] <lotuspsychje> cant
[07:30] <ausafali88_> now display is a lot neater and UNCLAIMED is not listed in lshw.
[07:35] <pooinass> How to change the Ubuntu repository to the Debian one?
[07:36] <lotuspsychje> !debian | pooinass
[07:36] <cfhowlett> pooinass, if you want debian stuff, install and use debian
[07:46] <jinxi1> how do I set a screensaver?
[07:46] <lotuspsychje> !info xscreensaver | jinxi1
[07:47] <jinxi1> why is it optional?
[07:47] <lotuspsychje> jinxi1: ubuntu ditched screensavers by default a long time ago
[07:47] <jinxi1> lotuspsychje, what is the replacement?
[07:48] <lotuspsychje> jinxi1: screen going to black
[07:48] <jinxi1> Something still needs to save my screen ;-)
[07:48] <cfhowlett> jinxi1, ditched = no longer needed or used
[07:48] <kostkon> jinxi1, because tft lcds don't suffer from permanent burn-in
[07:48] <lotuspsychje> jinxi1: but its your system, install xscreensaver without problems if you want ( i love the matrix one)
[07:49] <lotuspsychje> jinxi1: you might need some tuning with disabling gnome-screensaver, and add xscreensaver as startup job with some arguements
[07:53] <lotuspsychje> jinxi1: xscreensaver -no-splash as startup job
[07:57] <questions123> hey everyone, quick question (ubuntu 16.04): did the network manager change icons? mobile broadband showed up as 4 vertical bars in the taskbar when connected until the last update, now its showing the wifi arcs; its a little irritating
[08:14] <night-hacks> hi everyone
[08:15] <night-hacks> i run this command on my server:  lsof -i tcp:1099
[08:16] <night-hacks> and i get:   TCP afshar.test.com:rmiregistry->192.168.1.169:49216 (ESTABLISHED)
[08:16] <night-hacks> can anyone translate this output since it's odd for me.
[08:17] <sonu_nk> Hi, i am facing one issue. my website is not working on my windows pc if its open on ubuntu pc.. may be there is some DNS issue when i am accessing website on ubuntu pc...
[08:18] <night-hacks> sonu_nk: ping the websites ip
[08:18] <sonu_nk> Host: 139.162.18.127
[08:18] <night-hacks> sonu_nk: ping from your ubuntu machine
[08:19] <sonu_nk> night-hacks, issue is this : if i am accessing the application on ubuntu then it will not to access website on another pc (windows, ubuntu )
[08:19] <night-hacks> sonu_nk: you mean ssh ?
[08:19] <ducasse> night-hacks: what about the output don't you understand?
[08:20] <night-hacks> ducasse: 192.168.1.169 is my ip and afshar.test.com:rmiregistry is my friends ip !
[08:21] <ducasse> night-hacks: and? it means there is an active tcp connection between them.
[08:21] <oulanka> Is there some drawback to keeping dotfiles in a git repository, with symlinks leading from their locations (so say ~/.bashrc symlinks to ~/dotfiles_git_repository/.bashrc)? Is there some other clearly better to keep dotfiles in a git repository?
[08:22] <night-hacks> ducasse: but it's the output on my server, 192.168.0.168, how it knows i have active connection to my friends ip !
[08:23] <sonu_nk>  if i have one connection and two or more pc connected on one internet connection .. then issue : i am accessing the application on ubuntu machine.. then if i will open the website with browser on windows ..it shows timed out ..means website can only run in any one pc at a time.. this issue with only ubuntu .
[08:25] <night-hacks> sonu_nk: i had such a problem on machines, then disabled dhcp and configured interfaces static on my linux machines
[08:25] <night-hacks> sonu_nk: is your network infrastrauctures based on windows ?
[08:26] <sonu_nk> night-hacks, i am at home. and here no network .. just a internet wire connected in modem and 2 pc connected with modem ..thats it...
[08:27] <night-hacks> sonu_nk: then disable dhcp, use static interfaces, and configure default gateways and subnetmasks properly
[08:28] <ducasse> night-hacks: the command you ran above was executed on afshar.test.com
[08:29] <night-hacks> ducasse: no, on 192.168.0.168 !
[08:29] <ducasse> night-hacks: check that.
[08:29] <night-hacks> ducasse: dude, i'm sure
[08:29] <sonu_nk> night-hacks, what to do ? i am not much aware about ubuntu
[08:29] <Cyber_Akuma> I am trying to configure the grub2 GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT setting so the menu does not display automatically, but no matter what I do it's still displaying on boot.
[08:29] <ducasse> night-hacks: then what does 'host afshar.test.com' on that machine say?
[08:30] <night-hacks> ducasse: that's excatly my question
[08:30] <ducasse> night-hacks: then run it.
[08:31] <night-hacks> ducasse: run what ?
[08:31] <ducasse> night-hacks: as i said, 'host afshar.test.com'
[08:31] <night-hacks> ducasse: that's a windows machine
[08:32] <ducasse> night-hacks: run it on the machine you ran lsof on.
[08:33] <sonu_nk> any indian here.. plz ?
[08:33] <night-hacks> ducasse: afshar.test.com has address 172.16.1.38
[08:33] <ducasse> night-hacks: that is all it said?
[08:34] <ducasse> !in | sonu_nk
[08:34] <night-hacks>  ducasse: and has address 192.168.0.89
[08:35] <night-hacks> ducasse: these two outputs
[08:35] <sonu_nk> night-hacks, i am looking for more help :)
[08:36] <ducasse> night-hacks: you have some dns misconfiguration.
[08:36] <night-hacks> ducasse: on my server ? or my network ?
[08:37] <night-hacks> ducasse: or you mean ip conflict ?
[08:37] <ducasse> night-hacks: either on the machine you ran the commands on or elsewhere.
[08:38] <night-hacks> ducasse: that host is the ip address of the network admin
[08:38] <night-hacks> ducasse: he may messed it up
[08:49] <ducasse> night-hacks: that's possible. try 'sudo lsof -n -i tcp:1099' instead
[08:56] <night-hacks> ducasse: with -n it says: 192.168.0.168:rmiregistry->192.168.1.169:65145
[08:59] <ducasse> night-hacks: ok, so that command was run on 192.168.0.168, and when the host looked up the name for that address it got afshar.test.com
[09:01] <night-hacks> ducasse: so it's just me connected to that port
[09:02] <ducasse> night-hacks: yes, it can't know anything else.

[09:23] <art__> Truth is, its Ubuntu 14.04, but I I don't want to do a bootloader on that drive C:
[09:26] <art__> My question is, whether to boot to U16 from SystemRescue USB or the PenLinux thing?

[09:45] <manonales86> hi
[09:46] <manonales86> how can i add a workspace switcher to the menubar in 14.04 LTS?
[09:46] <art__> hi, manonales86    seems quiet here
[09:49] <bazhang> manonales86, is this unity or another shell
[09:51] <bazhang> manonales86, or are you using the gnome-session-fallback, eg gnome 'classic'
[09:51] <OERIAS> basic question here....
[09:51] <OERIAS> 4k or 1080p
[09:51] <OERIAS> for ubuntu?
[09:52] <bazhang> OERIAS, for what? hardware?
[09:53] <bazhang> OERIAS, does your card support that?
[09:54] <OERIAS> bazhang, for a notebook
[09:55] <bazhang> OERIAS, does your notebook support it
[09:55] <OERIAS> the notebook supports it
[09:55] <bazhang> OERIAS, what HD content did you have trouble with on ubuntu
[09:56] <bazhang> manonales86, the answer on adding workspace switcher depends if you are using unity or something else
[09:57] <jinxi1> firefox does not scale correctly on my 4k monitor.
[09:57] <jinxi1> Is this a known issue?
[09:57] <OERIAS> bazhang, i remembered a while back that ubuntu did not support 4k properly
[09:57] <OERIAS> jinxi1, I use Chromim
[09:57] <OERIAS> chromium
[09:58] <tatertots> OERIAS: are you using the computer right now?
[09:58] <jinxi1> me too, but I need a second browser.
[09:59] <bazhang> http://askubuntu.com/questions/788099/is-ubuntu-4k-ready
[09:59] <bazhang> yes it supports 4k
[09:59] <OERIAS> tatertots, no, I will be purchasing this pc soon
[09:59] <bazhang> thats a hw support issue, however,
[10:00] <OERIAS> i see
[10:01] <OERIAS> i remember a while back with a Dell preloaded with Ubuntu, the scaling of the applications was off.
[10:03] <manonales86> bazhang, i am using unity.
[10:04] <bazhang> unity-tweak-tool manonales86
[10:05] <bazhang> to get what you wanted

[12:00] <marrenarre> Hi. I need to make my Ubuntu partition smaller so I can install Windows, but when I try to resize it in GParted, I’m not able to decrease the size.
[12:01] <stanodoubleaa> hello, i tried to reformat a partion, now the partion has dissapeard and I cant find it anywhere
[12:03] <MonkeyDust> stanodoubleaa  in a terminal, type   lsblk -f    and paste the outcome here, to show it to the channel ... http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[12:05] <stanodoubleaa> MonkeyDust https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253234/
[12:06] <MonkeyDust> stanodoubleaa  is the partition you want in that list?
[12:06] <stanodoubleaa> no
[12:06] <stanodoubleaa> I use to use windows but I had one 500gb partion and I wanted to remove everything on the partion but now I cant find it
[12:08] <MonkeyDust> stanodoubleaa  you formatted it as what file system type?
[12:08] <stanodoubleaa> ext4
[12:09] <stanodoubleaa> the default
[12:11] <MonkeyDust> stanodoubleaa  what's the outcome of   df -h /dev/sda2
[12:13] <stanodoubleaa> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253276/
[12:13] <stanodoubleaa> it is the ssd I think, I really need to free up some space on it lol
[12:13] <ioria> stanodoubleaa, 99% ?
[12:13] <stanodoubleaa> but it was a 500gb partion on a 1tb harddrive
[12:14] <stanodoubleaa> yes
[12:14] <stanodoubleaa> I only had a ssd for a while
[12:14] <stanodoubleaa> so it filled up
[12:15] <ioria> stanodoubleaa, if you're on ubuntu right now, paste   df -h   and sudo parted -l
[12:16] <stanodoubleaa> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253286/
[12:18] <MonkeyDust> a lot of space, i'm jealous
[12:18] <ioria> stanodoubleaa, if you run  sudo apt autoremove   ? what it says ?
[12:19] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  btw, i think your missed partition is sdb2
[12:19] <stanodoubleaa> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253302/
[12:19] <stanodoubleaa> wait sorry
[12:20] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  without the question mark , please

[12:22] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  check df -h
[12:23] <stanodoubleaa> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253314/
[12:24] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  only 1% .... run it again
[12:24] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  autoremove , i mean
[12:25] <stanodoubleaa> Reading package lists... Done

[12:25] <stanodoubleaa> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253330/
[12:25] <stanodoubleaa> sorry
[12:25] <stanodoubleaa> and it is at 90 percent
[12:25] <stanodoubleaa> because of programs
[12:26] <stanodoubleaa> steam games etc lol
[12:26] <stanodoubleaa> very full because i didnt have any other hard drives for a long time
[12:26] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  remove (or purge) what you can ...
[12:27] <stanodoubleaa> why?
[12:27] <stanodoubleaa> I want to move it to the 500gb partion I formatted
[12:27] <stanodoubleaa> but I cant
[12:27] <stanodoubleaa> because the reformatted partion isnt showing
[12:28] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  btw, i think your missed partition is sdb2
[12:28] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  is without a fs
[12:28] <stanodoubleaa> ok so i add a file system to it?
[12:28] <stanodoubleaa> and it should show?
[12:29] <MonkeyDust> stanodoubleaa  type   sudo apt install gparted ... then run gparted from the menu
[12:30] <stanodoubleaa> i am running it
[12:30] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  you can use gparted, be sure it's not mounted
[12:30] <stanodoubleaa> what?
[12:30] <MonkeyDust> stanodoubleaa  up right, select sdb
[12:31] <stanodoubleaa> yes one partition is unknown
[12:31] <sachina> Hello guys, I disabled lightdm and now when I enabling, it is not autostarting, I have to manually start it using "systemctl start lightdm.service"
[12:31] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  give it a fs
[12:31] <stanodoubleaa> should i use ntfs?
[12:32] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  as you wish, ntfs does not support permission
[12:32] <stanodoubleaa> now there is 3mb of unallocated?
[12:32] <stanodoubleaa> isnt this normal though?
[12:33] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  paste sudo parted -l again
[12:33] <tatertots> sachina: are you using the computer right now?
[12:34] <sachina> yeah..
[12:34] <rizonz> is someone using systemd-networkd on ubuntu ? I need reliable ethX names
[12:35] <tatertots> sachina: in terminal>     sudo apt install inxi pastebinit
[12:35] <tatertots> sachina: when it's done...say so
[12:35] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  and your /dev/sdb3  is full .... (not secure, but  my personal opinion)
[12:35] <sachina> done
[12:36] <tatertots> sachina: in terminal>     inxi -Fxxrzc0|pastebinit
[12:36] <tatertots> sachina: share url/link here
[12:36] <stanodoubleaa> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253383/
[12:36] <stanodoubleaa> yes I have another 1tb hd somewhere
[12:37] <stanodoubleaa> going to free some space up
[12:37] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  so if you want to mv stuff, mount your sdb2 somewhere and cp it over
[12:37] <stanodoubleaa> do i mount it in gparted?
[12:38] <BluesKaj> rizonz, run ip add, check the .2 entry it's thenew name for eth0
[12:38] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  nope
[12:38] <rizonz> BluesKaj: erm, ok need to check
[12:39] <tatertots> sachina: sudo systemctl enable lightdm.service
[12:39] <marrenarre> Hi. I need to make my Ubuntu partition smaller so I can install Windows, but when I try to resize it in GParted, I’m not able to decrease the size.
[12:42] <BluesKaj> marrenarre, using a dpaarted live media, if si tru unmounting the ubuntu partition then resizing
[12:42] <BluesKaj> gparted
[12:42] <marrenarre> “si tru”?
[12:42]  * BluesKaj needs more light
[12:43] <psi_> si
[12:43] <BluesKaj> marrenarre, so try
[12:43] <stanodoubleaa> sorry im trying to follow online but i cant do it
[12:44] <BluesKaj> marrenarre, using a gparted live media, if so try unmounting the ubuntu partition then resizing
[12:44] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  what's wrong ?
[12:44] <stanodoubleaa> I cant mount the partion
[12:44] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  how are you mounting it ?
[12:45] <oulanka> Is there some drawback to keeping dotfiles in a git repository, with symlinks leading from their locations (so say ~/.bashrc symlinks to ~/dotfiles_git_repository/.bashrc)? Is there some other clearly better to keep dotfiles in a git repository?
[12:46] <stanodoubleaa> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253424/
[12:47] <marrenarre> BluesKaj: All I see is a greyed-out “Mount” option.
[12:47] <marrenarre> The installation is encrypted, by the way.
[12:48] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  you're not mounting a partition ....
[12:48] <BluesKaj> marrenarre, are you on live media?
[12:48] <marrenarre> BluesKaj: Yes.
[12:48] <stanodoubleaa> what
[12:48] <stanodoubleaa> yes I am?
[12:48] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  sdb it's the entire device
[12:48] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  are you in your home ?
[12:49] <stanodoubleaa> yes
[12:49] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  mkdir mountpoint
[12:49] <stanodoubleaa> yes
[12:49] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  sudo mount  /dev/sdb2  mountpoint
[12:50] <BluesKaj> marrenarre, encryption could be the problem , not familiar with partitioning encypted volumes
[12:50] <stanodoubleaa> yes
[12:50] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  paste 'mount' command output
[12:51] <stanodoubleaa> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253450/
[12:51] <marrenarre> BluesKaj: Darn. Well at least I sort of know what to search for then. Thanks anyway.
[12:52] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  now it's mounted ; copy what you want in there, and umount with   sudo umount mounpoint
[12:52] <stanodoubleaa> why unmount it?
[12:53] <stanodoubleaa> how do I get it like a normal drive i can use?
[12:53] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  because it's not in fstab, so you need to mount and umount  when you're finished
[12:54] <stanodoubleaa> can i make it a normal drive now?
[12:54] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  what is a normal drive ?
[12:54] <BluesKaj> marrenarre, this might help  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ResizeEncryptedPartitions
[12:55] <stanodoubleaa> the rest is a pic of a harddrive this is a pic of a idk card with the name mountpoint
[12:55] <stanodoubleaa> how do i change mountpoint into a harddrive icon
[12:56] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  oh, automount under media you mean ?
[12:56] <stanodoubleaa> i dont know?
[12:57] <marrenarre> BluesKaj: Yeah, I found that too, thanks. Seems like a minor hassle though. Any way I could just decrypt it permanently and then do the normal procedure? I’m willing to give up encryption.
[12:57] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  ok, sudo umount mountpoint and reboot ... nautilus should mount under /media i guess
[12:58] <stanodoubleaa> But how do i get it like it was ?
[12:58] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  how it was ?
[12:58] <BluesKaj> marrenarre, yeah that would probly make the partition acessible to gparted and it's options
[12:58] <stanodoubleaa> I had it like a normal partion but i wanted to remove everything, now it s a mountpoint. I want a norml empty partion
[12:59] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  sdb2 is empty , you just formated it with ntfs
[12:59] <stanodoubleaa> sorry if im not making sense im not good at this
[12:59] <stanodoubleaa> wait i will take pic
[13:03] <stanodoubleaa> ioria, https://i.imgur.com/WrEQLy5.png
[13:03] <stanodoubleaa> see the different icons?
[13:03] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  yes, because you mounted in ~/mountpoint ....
[13:04] <stanodoubleaa> i have no idea what that means
[13:04] <stanodoubleaa> what do i do to make it normal?
[13:05] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  can you paste   /etc/fstab
[13:07] <stanodoubleaa> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24253568/
[13:08] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  sudo umount mountpoint and reboot and see if it  automounts
[13:08] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  it should give you a different icon
[13:09] <stanodoubleaa> but does the icon mean anything?
[13:10] <ioria> stanodoubleaa,  the first two are automatically mounted under /media (/dev/sdc1 on /media/alex/New Volume), the third has been manually mounted
[13:10] <sachina> Hey guys, I disabled my lightdm using "systemctl disable lightdm.service" , how do I enable it again, "systemctl enable lightdm.service" is not working.
[13:10] <marrenarre> BluesKaj: Thanks for the help.
[13:11] <stanodoubleaa> ok, so there technially the same I get you, I thought it was temporary moint point
[13:11] <ioria> stanodoubleaa, yes
[13:11] <stanodoubleaa> sorry for my stupidity I just wanted to learn
[13:11] <ioria> stanodoubleaa, yes, it'a atemp mountpoint, unless you edit fstab
[13:11] <stanodoubleaa> anyway i will reboot
[13:11] <OerHeks> sachina, how do you tell "systemctl enable lightdm.service"  is not working?
[13:12] <sachina> I tried that and rebooted, lightdm is not autostarting
[13:13] <stannodoubleaa> hello, thankyou very much it worked
[13:14] <OerHeks> sachina, with sudo?
[13:14] <sachina> I did without sudo, I was root.
[13:15] <OerHeks> so you enabled it, but did you start? sudo systemctl start lightdm.service # and switch to ctl alt f7
[13:15] <ioria> stanodoubleaa, good job
[13:15] <sachina> do I have to start it after enabling?
[13:16] <sachina> I am already in gui!
[13:16] <OerHeks> duhh .. already in the gui ..
[13:16]  * OerHeks facepalms
[13:17] <sachina> I have manually started this using "systemctl start lightdm.service"
[13:18] <OerHeks> this might be the missing part: sudo systemctl set-default graphical.target
[13:18] <sachina> ok let my try that

[13:57] <Bliepo> Hey everyone! I have a server which also functions as router but I have a bit of a problem. I use dnsmasq for DNS on the LAN side. I want dnsmasq to do 'split horizon' DNS: I want to return the gateway IP for my domain name on the LAN side and on the loopback interface I want it to point to 127.0.0.1.
[13:57] <Bliepo> Now I excluded the loopback and WAN interface from dnsmasq, but now DNS is working for my LAN side, but not on the server (if I try to ping google it doesn't work)
[13:58] <Bliepo> Would using bind9 be my only option in this scenario?

[14:49] <shomon> yes
[14:49] <shomon> or can I find out from this half-installed computer which remaining ones are needed?

[15:31] <implite> was hexchat made in python "Python interface unloaded FiSHLiM plugin unloaded"?
[15:32] <sebsebseb> hi
[15:32] <implite> hello
[15:32] <sebsebseb> implite: hi
[15:33] <dixsonhoepp> Hi, I need the calibration of the monitor permanently
[15:34] <winter_> I am having trouble getting my microphone to work.
[15:34] <winter_> Discord does not recognize it, so does Firefox.
[15:35] <implite> you need to tell discord what audio device to use
[15:35] <implite> its somewhere in your settings
[15:35] <winter_> Only accepts "Built-in Audio Analog Stereo"
[15:36] <Menzador> winter_: What is your mic plugged into?
[15:36] <winter_> The mic plug.
[15:36] <winter_> mic in*
[15:36] <winter_> PulseAudio Volume Control seems to recognize it but I am not entirely sure.
[15:36] <winter_> I am using Xubuntu if that helps.
[15:36] <Menzador> winter_: If it's in the microphone jack, Built-in Audio Analog Stereo is correct
[15:37] <winter_> Discord is not transmitting anything.
[15:37] <winter_> or it is?
[15:37] <Menzador> winter_: So there's no mic output?
[15:38] <Menzador> Or I should say the bar doesn't move when you speak into it?
[15:38] <Menzador> Under the Input Tab there should be a volume control
[15:39] <winter_> is there any way to listen to my transmitted voice to see if it works?
[15:39] <implite> have you tested another audio recording program just to see if you can get anything from this mic?
[15:39] <Menzador> Not that I know of, at least not within PulseAudio
[15:40] <Menzador> ^
[15:41] <winter_> only noise comes through
[15:41] <Menzador> Noise?
[15:41] <winter_> yup
[15:41] <winter_> only noise
[15:41] <winter_> on audacity at least
[15:42] <implite> do you have another computer to test this mic on?
[15:43] <implite> maybe it is a bad mic?
[15:43] <winter_> i can dualboot windows
[15:44] <implite> I would just try sound recorder there just to see if you get anything... then we can rule out if it is a bad mic
[15:45] <winter_> .....and as it turns out, its because i actually turned off mic output
[15:45] <winter_> on my headphones
[15:45] <winter_> well, that settles it
[15:45] <implite> HAHA
[15:45] <winter_> im dumb
[15:45] <winter_> thanks
[15:45] <implite> well
[15:45] <implite> npnp
[15:45] <implite> we have all done this before
[15:45] <Menzador> Lol :) At least it's fixed
[15:46] <winter_> still though, thanks
[15:46] <implite> wb lol
[15:46] <implite> we have all done that before so np
[15:47] <winter_> one more thing
[15:47] <Menzador> ?
[15:47] <winter_> is there any way to improve performance on amd graphics cards?
[15:48] <winter_> i am using the pre-installed drivers
[15:48] <winter_> i was playing pro skater 4 on the dolphin gamecube emulator
[15:48] <winter_> and mvp 2005 on vmware
[15:48] <winter_> and it always feels like im playing it at sub-30 fps
[15:49] <winter_> other emulation works fine for the most part though
[15:49] <implite> there is a nice new amd driver coming out soon that will really help the performance
[15:49] <winter_> where can i find news on it?
[15:50] <implite> you will see it in your updates
[15:50] <implite> when its ready
[15:50] <winter_> awesome, cant wait
[15:50] <implite> but what is your issue?
[15:50] <implite> slow?
[15:50] <winter_> its just something im wondering about
[15:50] <implite> low fps?
[15:50] <winter_> as i said a lot of other stuff works fine
[15:50] <winter_> except for nfs underground 2 on wine
[15:50] <winter_> i have been getting into linux since january and im always stoked to see improvements
[15:51] <implite> you should look into wine bottles and play4linux
[15:51] <Menzador> That's Wine, which is an application layer as opposed to an emulator
[15:51] <winter_> i know
[15:51] <Menzador> implite: Do you mean PlayOnLinux?
[15:51] <winter_> i should probably see if i can run it on playonlinux
[15:51] <implite> yes playonlinux
[15:51] <implite> sorry
[15:52] <winter_> playonlinux is a huge improvement over wine
[15:52] <Menzador> (The latest League of Legends script allows for awesomeness on Linux) :)
[15:52] <winter_> well, improvement as in it helps wine
[15:52] <winter_> not into LoL, but it let me run Diablo 3
[15:52] <winter_> thats a good sign
[15:52] <implite> its all about handling wine bottles
[15:53] <implite> playonlinux couldnt do it without wine
[15:53] <implite> you get the right set of wine bottles and you can run anything you want ;)
[16:03] <Delysid> Hello everyone, I've been having an issue with my hp laptop and compactibility with linux in general, including ubuntu. I have two problems: random freezes and inability to power off my laptop (literally have to manually hold power off button). Which steps should I take in understanding the issues and hopefully resolving them ?
[16:09] <sebsebseb> Delysid: hold on a min, just doing soething then get back to you
[16:10] <sethu> hi
[16:10] <sebsebseb> Delysid: ok
[16:11] <sebsebseb> sethu: hi
[16:11] <sebsebseb> Delysid: which lap top?  or more speically,  ram,  proccesser?
[16:11] <sebsebseb> also which version of ubuntu ?
[16:11] <sebsebseb> and if any other distros what have you tried ?
[16:12] <sebsebseb> Delysid: how old is the lap top as well? what graphics card does it have even ?
[16:12] <ZoderUck> which of your technicians uses rasberry pi with some kind of database ?
[16:14] <Delysid> 4 gigs of ram, it  has quad-core atom processor. I have tried 14.04, 16.04, 16.10 ; also fedora, kubuntu/lubuntu
[16:14] <Delysid> And it has integrated graphic card
[16:14] <sebsebseb> Intel graphics ?
[16:14] <Delysid> Yes
[16:14] <sebsebseb> when you sya freeze
[16:14] <sebsebseb> a kernel panic ?
[16:14] <sebsebseb> Delysid: like a proper error screen, and then a re boot I guess?  yes  Linux does actsaully have something a bit like the blue screen of death in Windows, but not quite the same
[16:15] <sebsebseb> also its rare to get kernel panics
[16:15] <sebsebseb> unless faulty hardware for example
[16:15] <Delysid> I don't really get any feedback, it just stops working completely
[16:15] <sebsebseb> hmm
[16:15] <sebsebseb> how does it stop working complerlty? a big freeze and not working ?
[16:16] <Delysid> I have to hold the power off button to power it off. Windows runs normally, and so does linux as a virtual machine
[16:16] <sebsebseb> is that a virtual machine inside windows ?
[16:16] <Delysid> Yes
[16:16] <sebsebseb> oh
[16:17] <Delysid> But I don't really want to depend on windows to run linux
[16:17] <sebsebseb> Delysid: ok can you lspci and put the output from terminal onto pastebin
[16:17] <sebsebseb> thata could be a good start
[16:17] <sebsebseb> yes in linux I mean
[16:17] <sebsebseb> that will give more of an idea about your hardware what you got
[16:17] <sebsebseb> !pastebin
[16:18] <sebsebseb> Delysid: indeed  running Wndows at all, generallhy isn't that great
[16:18] <sebsebseb> but sometimes there is reason to
[16:19] <Delysid> Will running lspci on a virtual machine be accurate or should I set up a dual boot real quick ?
[16:19] <RandomNoob> Helo guys. I created clonezilla image of my ubuntu. When I am trying to restore that image from usb flash drive I cant choose it. Even there is not an choice of restoring
[16:21] <k1l> Delysid: lspci only sees the "fake" hardware provided by virtualbox.
[16:21] <sebsebseb> Delysid: indeed that's the fake stuff if done in a virtual machine,  not the real hardware
[16:21] <sebsebseb> Delysid: can also get hardware info from Windows
[16:21] <sebsebseb> at the moment
[16:22] <sebsebseb> k1l: did you see the original issue above? they have a odd issue wehre Linux keeps on crashing,  but  Windows works ok on there
[16:22] <Delysid> That's what I thought, I'll get it from windows, it's quicker
[16:22] <sebsebseb> even a virtual machine of Linux inside Windows
[16:22] <k1l> even the vm crashes?
[16:22] <dixsonhoepp> How to calibrate the monitor permanently?
[16:22] <sebsebseb> k1l: the vm woriks when inside Windows, but a pshyicall install of Linux, and crashes after a bit, it seems
[16:23] <mguy> dixsonhoepp: do you mean load a saved calibration at every boot up?
[16:23] <Delysid> My linux vm doesn't crash. Only if it's run as a main os
[16:23] <k1l> well, we need to look into the syslog/dmesg from the session when it crashed.
[16:23] <mguy> ls
[16:24] <sebsebseb> Delysid: have you got a pshyicall ikjnstall of Linux set up now, or you meant you would set up now dual boot?
[16:24] <sebsebseb> Delysid: but k11  for example will be more knowledgable in helping you with your particular issue
[16:24] <mathrock74> can somebody tell me why the meta package linux-image-generic in xenial is version 4.4.0.66.70 when linux-image-4.4.0-67-generic is already available?
[16:25] <sebsebseb> mathrock74: where?
[16:25] <mguy> Is there a page to preview unity themes?
[16:25] <Delysid> I'm running only windows currenly, I can set up a linux real quick and get back to you with logs ?
[16:25] <sebsebseb> mathrock74: and old kernels stay installed unless you remove them
[16:25] <sebsebseb> Delysid: yep that's what k11 meant, get the actsaul crash error message, from when it crashes
[16:25] <sebsebseb> the real install
[16:25] <k1l> Delysid: its hard to tell what happend. so having the logs from an install after the crash happend can shed some light
[16:26] <Delysid> Okay no problem. Any version of ubuntu you want me to install in particular ?
[16:26] <mathrock74> sebsebseb: in the official repositories
[16:26] <k1l> Delysid: 16.04.2 or 16.10 will do
[16:26] <sebsebseb> Delysid: 16.04 or 16.10
[16:26] <dixsonhoepp> mguy Yes, and do not To get lost wshen I run a game, etc
[16:27] <dixsonhoepp> mguy: Yes, and do not To get lost wshen I run a game, etc
[16:27] <k1l> mathrock74: here you see the versions: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta
[16:27] <k1l> mathrock74: see the 4.4.70 is in proposed. which is the repo for automated testings which you shoould not enable if you are not automatic testing stuff :)
[16:28] <NarcM93> hello there
[16:28] <sebsebseb> NarcM93: hi
[16:28] <NarcM93> how are you guys
[16:28] <Delysid> I'll go with 16.04.2 because LTS, 64bit. I'll get back to you guys when it crashes.
[16:28] <sebsebseb> Delysid: yeah
[16:32] <dixsonhoepp> Hi, I need the calibration of the monitor permanently
[16:37] <mathrock74> linux-image-generic was on 4.4.0-67 for a short time, they should remove the 4.4.0-67 packages from the repositories when they botch kernel updates (again), last time they did (correct meta package version and remove faulty(?) kernels)
[16:41] <k1l> !info linux-image-generic xenial
[16:43] <k1l> mathrock74: i guess #ubuntu-kernel guys can give you more detailed answers
[16:47] <mathrock74> k1l: it's ok, im only a little bit annoyed cause they obviously botched the kernel update two times in a row in xenial. this shouldn't happen in a lts version. my desktop box at work always gets these "short time" kernels, when i start my laptop at home, they're already gone
[16:47] <k1l> mathrock74: yes, there were some issues with kernel updates, but i dont know the specifics. but you are right, that should not happen
[17:00] <SopaXorzTaker> Canonical, you suck
[17:00] <SopaXorzTaker> Helping Microsoft monopolize Linux
[17:00] <SopaXorzTaker> I am sick of this
[17:00] <SopaXorzTaker> guys, don't use Ubuntu.
[17:01] <piercedwater> what should we use
[17:01] <sebsebseb> SopaXorzTaker: helping them monopolise Linux how?
[17:01] <SopaXorzTaker> piercedwater, Arch, Debian, openSUSE, Fedora
[17:01] <k1l> SopaXorzTaker: this is not appropriate in here.
[17:01] <sebsebseb> SopaXorzTaker: that Ubuntu in WIndows 10 thing, doesn't do that
[17:01] <SopaXorzTaker> sebsebseb, well, they are their so-called partners now
[17:02] <sebsebseb> Open SUSE,  had one with Microsoft before,  and I think even Redhat has a iltlte one more recently,  but this is off topic  and won't respond more
[17:02] <SopaXorzTaker> And their damn "<3 Linux" campaign is just an attemt to monopolize the market
[17:02] <SopaXorzTaker> Well, Redhat is actually a monopolist too
[17:03] <SopaXorzTaker> but they're contributing GPL code at least
[17:03] <k1l> please keep this channel clear for technical ubuntu spport. thanks
[17:03] <nichlas> SopaXorzTaker: I agree not to trust MS wrt Linux. But thats not the fault of canonical?
[17:03] <SopaXorzTaker> k1l, I wish to be banned from this channel, not going to use Ubuntu anymore :P
[17:03] <SopaXorzTaker> I actually am ban-evading now, I've been banned there before
[17:03] <SopaXorzTaker> for exactly the same discussion.
[17:04] <MonkeyDust> SopaXorzTaker  stop
[17:04] <implite> omg drama.... dont hate people...
[17:06] <sebsebseb> they got quieted
[17:06] <k1l> dont mind the trolls :)
[17:06] <implite> TYTY!
[17:18] <chuuny> Hello
[17:18] <chuuny> Hey
[17:19] <chuuny> :/srv/irclogs.ubuntu.com/2017/01/01/#bzr.txt
[17:20] <chuuny> Y a quelqu'un,
[17:21] <OerHeks> chuuny, english only please, and what has a log to do with ubuntu support?
[17:22] <chuuny> This is where we discuss
[17:22] <chuuny> or not
[17:23] <OerHeks> chuuny, oke, have fun there, please don't spam this channel, thanks.
[17:24] <fuzzyhorns> hi all. i'm using xmodmap to try to give myself a hyper key. i found these settings and they worked for me until i restarted: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jabbalaci/dotfiles/master/.Xmodmap
[17:24] <fuzzyhorns> i tried reapplying them with xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap and no dice
[17:24] <fuzzyhorns> i followed the troubleshooting guide on the ubuntu site but didn't make any headway
[17:24] <fuzzyhorns> anyone manage to have a caps lock hyper key consistently working?
[17:25] <guest12345> How can I access my files from my hard drive using a live CD? It keeps telling me I don't have permission and I am trying to back up.
[17:26] <guest12345> I mean the files of my hard drive
[17:26] <sebsebseb> guest12345: file permissions
[17:26] <sebsebseb> !permissions
[17:26] <chuuny> Sorry this is the first time I come on Hexchat. I do not know.
[17:27] <OerHeks> fuzzyhorns, add sleep 4 && xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap &  to ~/.bash_profile  ?
[17:28] <fuzzyhorns> OerHeks: but wouldn't using "xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap" now work?
[17:28] <OerHeks> yes it should
[17:28] <fuzzyhorns> like not even rerunning that is working for me which is what confuses me
[17:29] <sebsebseb> guest12345: you could become root, and move everything over etc etc to a Linux,  but then root  would own everything, and you would have to chmod later
[17:29] <sebsebseb> I mean nautilus via sudo
[17:29] <sebsebseb> guest12345: its basically since the live cd doesn't own your home folder on hard drive
[17:29] <guest12345> sebsebseb: is it ok if I PM you?
[17:30] <sebsebseb> guest12345: maybe, but may be able to get more help here
[17:31] <sebsebseb> guest12345: or might have to come back here later depends
[17:31] <sebsebseb> ok pm me
[17:31] <fuzzyhorns> https://gist.github.com/mooreniemi/12d5b756f820bf8c8e9227d942122c76 output looks right to me, too

[17:48] <OerHeks> rele-vance,  is there a ubuntu support question in that url?
[17:48] <DJones> rele-vance: Wrong channel, this is Ubuntu support
[17:50] <Delysid> Update: just freshly installed it, imma play around until it freezes.
[17:50] <OerHeks> next winter? go for it, Delysid
[17:54] <Delysid> haha you know it
[18:02] <Delysid> Well this is weird.. It's not freezing now. However it still gets stuck on power off
[18:04] <sebsebseb> Delysid: ok
[18:04] <Delysid> Just rebooted it, let me share the log so we can at least tackle that problem
[18:04] <sebsebseb> Delysid: stuck on power off could be another issue,  but you can jsut power off  linux via the power bugtton without much issue, anyway :d
[18:04] <sebsebseb> its not windows
[18:05] <Delysid> Lmao you are right
[18:21] <Delysid> Guys, something came up I have to leave. I'll get back with you tomorrow with some logs because I'm sure it's gonna freeze eventually

[18:35] <Smashcat> Anyone here use Steam on Linux with an Nvidia GPU? Seems like it's broken in 16.04
[18:37] <implite> @smashcat I use amd but i have 16.04 and steam on both linux and wine
[18:37] <implite> @smashcat what is your problem?
[18:38] <Smashcat> implite: Yeah, It seems like it's just broken with Nvidia. Not a big deal as I have a Windows gaming PC, but was just interested in trying steam on Linux. It crashes out with "can't load swrast driver". I think the steam client on linux is really old, and wants old libs

[18:49] <dury> hi there channel :-)
[18:49] <anonymous23> hi
[18:50] <dury> anonymous23, can you help, if you don't mind please?
[18:50] <MonkeyDust> dury  start with a question
[18:51] <anonymous23> what's happen : dury
[18:51] <dury> MonkeyDust, anonymous23, one sec. please
[18:59] <einstein> hey
[18:59] <einstein> In my laptop why the hell doesn't jupyter recognise python3.5 , and even in virtualenv the jupyter doesnt get installed now, earlier everything was perfect , and now as hell
[18:59] <dury> MonkeyDust, anonymous23, all right guys found it... I want to boot this iso http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/test/xenialpup/xenialpup-7.0.8-uefi.iso from grub2 I've tried with not success can you assist me
[18:59] <einstein> It says kernel is not found or recognised , and I do pip install --user jupyter that too fails, everything fails even in the virtualenv
[19:01] <dury> MonkeyDust, anonymous23, should I edit grub.cfg or what?
[19:02] <k1l> dury: this is an explanation on how to use grubs iso boot feature: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot
[19:03] <anonymous23> dury: how many dist have you on your pc
[19:04] <dury> anonymous23, you mean distros, don't you?
[19:05] <ioria> dury if you want to boot an iso from grub you can also use  the grub-imageboot  package
[19:05] <ioria> info grub-imageboot
[19:05] <anonymous23> dury: distro
[19:05] <ssimaging> hello all
[19:05] <dury> all right
[19:05] <ioria> !info grub-imageboot
[19:07] <dury> ioria, so sudo apt-get install grub-imageboot is it right?
[19:07] <ioria> dury right, then you make sudo mkdir /boot/images , cp the iso in there, update grub and reboot
[19:08] <AssociateX> Hello again.
[19:08] <ioria> dury  when you reboot, you'll see your iso in grub
[19:09] <AssociateX> If I want to kill the desktop envioronment to get back to the DM, how do I do that via cli?
[19:09] <dury> ioria, sure? does it work?, did you test it? anyway I'm going for it
[19:09] <ioria> dury  yes, with mini.iso on xubuntu 16.04
[19:10] <dury> ioria, all right :-)
[19:10] <dury> see what's happen
[19:11] <ioria> dury  after coping your iso in /boot/images, run sudo upadte-grub2  and check if it sees the iso

[19:32] <israphial> Hello! So, Ubuntu stock uses Unity. However, in my system monitor, I'm noticing that the process gnome-software is always at the top of my memory usage. I don't understand why it
[19:32] <israphial> oops...
[19:32] <israphial> Why it's like that, shouldn't I only be using unity stuff, not gnome stuff? I'm not sure why both unity and gnome are actively running.
[19:33] <MonkeyDust> israphial  unity is a compiz layer over gnome3
[19:33] <israphial> Oh!
[19:34] <sebsebseb> israphial: yeah that's GNOME 3 in the background
[19:34] <sebsebseb> israphial: Unity is deafult insteada of the GNOME inteface, GNOME Shell
[19:34] <ioria> !info gnome-software
[19:34] <israphial> Wait! So can I switch to a Unity GNOME DE right now without needing to install the big GNOME and GNOME-shell packages?
[19:34] <sebsebseb> israphial: not quite
[19:34] <israphial> Aww.
[19:34] <sebsebseb> israphial: the big GNOME stuff if you call it that is the backgorund
[19:34] <sebsebseb> the GNOME base
[19:35] <sebsebseb> israphial: you can go to GNOME Shell and give that a try, in the installl you got now though
[19:35] <sebsebseb> as well as lots of other interfaces etc as well
[19:35] <sebsebseb> KDE, XFCE, and what not
[19:35] <israphial> I cannot switch over to it, I don't have the option to in my login. Would I need to apt-get install gnome & gnome-shell in order for that to work?
[19:35] <anddam> is there a Unity program handling handwriting signatures, akin to macOS' Preview.app?
[19:36] <k1l> gnome-software is the new software center for ubuntu.
[19:36] <sebsebseb> israphial: yes should add to the log in screen as an option, and I would suggeset instalilng  to try gnome.  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop  since that's a more full proper GNOME expereince as well
[19:36] <ChrisGK> what is this
[19:36] <k1l> israphial: if you want the gnome-shell, install the gnome-shell package.
[19:36] <israphial> I cannot currently do that, sebsebseb , I am currently using internet that is locked to an extremely slow speed.
[19:36] <k1l> !ontopic | ChrisGK
[19:36] <israphial> But I will note that and install it when I can.
[19:37] <sebsebseb> israphial: well maybe just gome shell on your slow intenret, but willl still put in some other pakcages
[19:37] <sebsebseb> ChrisGK:  a ubuntu support channel
[19:38] <israphial> that would be gnome-shell, correct?
[19:39] <sebsebseb> yeah
[19:39] <sebsebseb> israphial: yeah
[19:39] <k1l> israphial: that installs the gnome shell, yes
[19:39] <israphial> gonna check the size of it, see if I can actually get it downloaded in a reasonable amt of time.
[19:40] <israphial> 25 mb, I can do that.
[19:42] <vooze> I'm trying to setup a 11TB (10 TiB) partition in ubuntu vm (Proxmox KVM host system) but when using parted it shows only 9,4T usable out of 10T on sdb1. I created it with 2048KiB 100% so it should be use all space right?
[19:47] <michelb_> can i put echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/devices/platform/applemc.768/fan2_manual and echo 2000 | sudoo tee /.../..../.../fan2_output intoo a script that loads on startup? so that my fan drops to 2000rpm at startup?

[20:02] <spm_draget> Is there a ppa for recent versions (5.7 or 5.8) of QT for xenial?
[20:05] <RyanTG> Why am I not seeing Python development options if I installed eclipse-pydev?
[20:06] <RyanTG> Still only seeing C and Java.
[20:08] <bekks> RyanTG: Maybe ask the eclipse channel?
[20:09] <RyanTG> The eclipse channel is going to tell me to use the eclipse installer script first instead of the .deb from Ubuntu.  I'm trying to stick to everything being packaged and supported or why bother with the LTS?
[20:11] <turista> Hello every!
[20:11] <turista> I've a question, I download this game called 'singularity'; but it only open when I start up (I log in the system)
[20:11] <turista> after it comes up with a black screen and it does not start :-þ
[20:12] <turista> some ppl tell me that it has something to do with the video memory or something a like but I dunno, what ya think?¿
[20:13] <RyanTG> Have you tried starting it from the command line and piping the output to a file so you can see if it's throwing any errors?
[20:15] <M2Nch3r> Hello all. Had a question, Do I have to configure my USB "Sound Card" for my Razer Kraken headset to get it working after bootup?
[20:16] <M2Nch3r> So far, when Ubuntu boots, the USB headset doesn't work until I unplug and plug it back in
[20:17] <M2Nch3r> I'm thinking whatever process Ubuntu boots up doesn't include "loading" the soundcard that is my USB Headset
[20:18] <M2Nch3r> I technically have drivers someone built for razer products on my system, but I was hoping someone might be able to direct me to some reading material in configuring sound cards
[20:18] <M2Nch3r> Research inlcuding direction to modifying alsa-base.conf in /etc/modeprobe.d
[20:18] <M2Nch3r> I do see a list there, and I was able to verify that Ubuntu recognizes it since it's showing in lsusb
[20:20] <M2Nch3r> Could anyone give me any tips with dealing with USB headsets on Ubuntu that don't work on bootup
[20:20] <mustafa_> hi
[20:20] <M2Nch3r> It does work after unplugging and plugging back in
[20:23] <turista> Ok, I tried to start the 'singularity' game from the shell but it does not do something
[20:23] <turista> I also can't cancel with ctrl + c cuz it show something like C^
[20:29] <mustafa_> sa
[20:30] <M2Nch3r> razer kraken headset (via USB interface). Is there a reason why it only is selectable in sound options after replugging it back in?

[21:03] <mulks> Hi
[21:08] <SemiNus> hi
[21:09] <SemiNus> I have absolutely no idea what channel I could ask my question in.  Since I use Ubuntu as OS,  I hoped to find help here.
[21:09] <SemiNus> Yesterday, I bought a D-Link router (DIR 615)
[21:09] <Bashing-om> SemiNus: ubuntu; then ask and see .
[21:09] <SemiNus> it's a cheap router, but it should do what I need:
[21:10] <SemiNus> my cellar has a very bad mobile internet reception (and I use mobile internet here)
[21:11] <SemiNus> so I placed my TP Link mobile router into the window, so that it has a good enough reception
[21:11] <SemiNus> the other router (D-Link, _not_ TPLink) stands next to my working PC
[21:12] <SemiNus> my goal with the D-Link router is to connect to the other WIFI network (of the TPLink router in the window) and pass the WIFI connection to my computer via Ethernet
[21:12] <k1l> SemiNus: that sounds like a question for ##networking or ##hardware
[21:12] <SemiNus> [TP Link => WIFI]  ----->  [D-LINK router]  ------>  ethernet to PC
[21:13] <SemiNus> k1l, awesome, I did not know these channel existed
[21:13] <SemiNus> thank you!

[21:32] <frib> i'm having trouble using japanese text input in wine apps. anyone know how to resolve this?
[21:32] <ppf> so, i'm just trying to use distcc. but it isn't distributing
[21:32] <sebsebseb> frib: I think you can put Windows fonts real ones, into a fonts folder in the .wine in home possibly
[21:33] <ppf> i.e., no compile jobs are ever generated on the build slave
[21:33] <sebsebseb> frib: also I belive theres a microsoft fonts package in the repos, that may apply to wine as well
[21:33] <sebsebseb> msftfonts
[21:33] <ppf> neither end produces any log messages
[21:34] <frib> sebsebseb, you mean in winetricks right
[21:34] <sebsebseb> frib: look in the hidden .wine folders anything in there for fonts?
[21:34] <sebsebseb> frib: and yes winetricks can possibly be used for this
[21:34] <sebsebseb> been ages since I used that htough
[21:34] <sebsebseb> though
[21:34] <sebsebseb> or wine
[21:35] <ppf> whats up with that? what do i need to do to make it produce worthwile messages? or, better, jobs?
[21:35] <frib> sebsebseb, the thing is it shouldn't be a font issue it's the text input I can't do
[21:35] <sebsebseb> frib: I don't know then
[21:35] <sebsebseb> I guess the programs don't work so well with japenise in wine :d
[21:35] <frib> sebsebseb, ok thx
[21:35] <sebsebseb> frib: o h yeah by the way may not be that active but you can try #winehq as well
[21:35] <sebsebseb> !wine
[21:41] <RyanTG> So if I wanted to write some Python for distributing on Ubuntu 16.04 using ONLY the official deb packages, what do I install?
[21:41] <RyanTG> disregard. bad question.
[21:42] <RyanTG> I left out the part about wanting to use Eclipse for the intellisense.
[21:42] <gaddafi_00> Google that
[21:42] <k1l> !google | gaddafi_00
[21:42] <RyanTG> Oh, thank you. I was totally unaware there was a search engine I might try before coming to a support channel.

[21:51] <Narev> Hi
[21:51] <Narev> I have been trying to get wow working under ubuntu for 2 weeks now
[21:52] <Narev> I have tried numerous how-tos, tutorials, and videos...
[21:52] <Narev> Installed playonlinux and numerous versions of wine
[21:52] <Narev> I was hoping to god someone here could help
[21:53] <Narev> Is this one of those "No one actually talks" channels?
[21:54] <RyanTG> That or they'll tell you to Google it.
[21:54] <Narev> Oh I've googled it
[21:54] <Narev> I've followed every different one
[21:54] <Narev> watched the videos
[21:55] <Narev> In the videos it works, mine does not
[21:55] <k1l> for wine issues better ask the wine specialists
[21:55] <k1l> !wine | Narev
[21:56] <RyanTG> What if the wine specialists suggest you use Arch instead because it works better there?  Will the #ubuntu channel really have helped then?
[21:57] <k1l> RyanTG: the issue is, that wine is not a program ubuntu can fix. ubuntu is shipping wine, not making it.
[21:58] <RyanTG> k1l: That implies anything not made by Canonical should be compiled from source so you can be sure you have all the latest bug fixes. Might as well be using Gentoo at that point.
[21:58] <RyanTG> Narev: What's your wine problem?
[21:59] <k1l> RyanTG: i think you are more unhelpfull now than what you actually complain about.
[22:00] <RyanTG> k1l: Would it be easier to list the software this channel does help with?
[22:01] <clackamas> RyanTG:  Go to http://www.winehq.com and review their problem list for the version of Wine you have installed.
[22:01] <k1l> RyanTG: good luck with getting your issue solved.
[22:12] <RyanTG> k1l: Nobody here was going to solve my issue anyway since Ubuntu doesn't make Python, Eclipse, Git, C, Java, Node.JS, or really most of the tools a developer wanting desperately to get away from Windows would be using.
[22:13] <katakaio> Narev: You may have already seen this, but here's a write-up for playing WoW using Wine under Ubuntu specifically https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[22:18] <RyanTG> Ah, I missed the wow part earlier.
[22:22] <jiffe> is there a way to search for repository packages which contain files which contain certain text ?
[22:23] <k1l> for files: yes. but text in file, no.
[22:24] <tomreyn> jiffe: not really ubuntu, but they share a lot of packages, so you could try this: https://codesearch.debian.net/
[22:30] <bocephus> Anychance I can get pointed in the right direction.  I can not switch between my headphones and speakers.  I have to unplug my headphones
[22:33] <jnj> Does anyone know how to have three monitors for xfce 4.12?
[22:34] <bocephus> jnj, not sure if this helps: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/11/how-to-use-multiple-monitors-in-xubuntu.html
[22:35] <jnj> bocephus: thanks but didn't really work - when I cant get the third monitor up but I do have two
[22:36] <bocephus> jnj,  so it only detects two monitors? Does the third show anything?  Might want to double check the input source on the monitor
[22:37] <bocephus> jnj, Does your 3rd monitor just show the "power save" mode or whatever?
[22:40] <jnj> bocephus: my third monitor is actually my laptop
[22:41] <histo> jnj: What?
[22:42] <histo> jnj: how are you using your laptop as a third monitor?
[22:42] <jnj> histo: I'm not, but I would like it to be. I have two monitors connected to my laptop, I was just wondering if it was possible for me to also have the display on my laptop as well. It's currently turned off.
[22:44] <histo> jnj: how are the two monitors connected?
[22:44] <jnj> histo: One monitor is connected to the vga port and the other monitor is connected to the hdmi port via a htmi to vga adapter
[22:44] <histo> jnj: most laptops can't dual screen like that. They can either clone the screen to an external output or extend the screen.
[22:45] <Bizzeh> jnj: you can get usb2vga adapters, which is essentially a USB GPU that is JUST powerful enough to present a desktop
[22:45] <Bizzeh> you can use these to add as many screens as you have USB ports
[22:46] <Bizzeh> managed to get 5 of these running 5 different screens using a powered hub running off a laptop at work
[22:47] <PR1M3-1NST1NCT> I cant find my wordpress  URL
[22:47] <SpacePotatoBear> Hi, I had 2 drives that where in an intel raid array (raid 0), i'm trying to add them to a mirrored ZFS pool
[22:47] <histo> Bizzeh: why?
[22:47] <MWM> I am trying to troubleshoot conky and need a Ubuntu to english translator:  http://conky.sourceforge.net/faq.html advises to make a change to ~/.xinitrc.  ~/xinitrc doesnt seem to exist already though?
[22:47] <jnj> histo: Oh, well I do have my laptop dual screening. I have two vga screens, I just can't get the display on my laptop (I'm assuming that you meant in terms of my laptop screen not working)
[22:47] <jnj> Bizzeh: Noted - I'll try to get those then!
[22:47] <SpacePotatoBear> I keep getting errors and I think it has to do with left over meta data. SO how can i do a full wipe, incluidng metadata
[22:47] <Bizzeh> histo: because we had them around...
[22:47] <Bizzeh> usually only have 1 per laptop, but we wanted to see how many we could connect up, and we maxed out the hub
[22:48] <histo> lol
[22:48] <archpc> whats the current state for Ubuntu on AMD R9 GPUs?
[22:53] <tomreyn> SpacePotatoBear: you're saying intel raid array, so i assume it's a proprietary fakeraid? if it was mdadm, you could --zero-superblock
[22:54] <hfp> Hi, is there any way to disable the touchpad permanently on my laptop? I can disable it on the command line manually, and I put the command into Startup applications; but it comes back enabled everytime the machine wakes up from sleep or reboots. Any suggestions?
[22:54] <SpacePotatoBear> tomreyn, yea mdadm isn't helping, I'm using dd now.
[22:54] <SpacePotatoBear> hfp, xserver settings, I did something similar for turning acceleration off, and configuring my trackpoint
[22:55] <SpacePotatoBear> hfp, I hope this helps https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics
[22:56] <tomreyn> SpacePotatoBear: if you really want to do a full wipe then either do an ata secure erase (https://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/ATA_Secure_Erase) or dd if=/dev/zero
[22:56] <SpacePotatoBear> yea I'm usind dd if=/dev/zero of=/disk/path
[22:56] <tomreyn> but most likely metadata is in either first or last sectors.
[22:56] <tomreyn> (or both)
[22:56] <hfp> SpacePotatoBear: thanks I'll check this out
[22:56] <SpacePotatoBear> we'll find out.
[22:58] <rizonz> I wonder what shall I do, mount a virtual disk for an ubuntu mirror or mount some iscsi or NFS ?
[23:27] <KalEl> Will anyone be able to read my text files or open office sheets if my account is password protected?
[23:32] <tomreyn> KalEl: depends: do you have an encrypted home directory?
[23:33] <KalEl> No I haven't encrypted it
[23:34] <tomreyn> then anyone who can read files in your home directory can access them
[23:35] <just_some_guy> I have a couple of questions about ubuntu server, is this the right channel for that kind of discussion?
[23:36] <tomreyn> KalEl: i.e. file system permissions still apply, but only when your system is booted normally. if the computer can be booted by other means or the disks are connected to a different computer, and you do not use full disk encryption, then file system permissions can be overcome.
[23:36] <blkadder> just_some_guy Probably. :-)
[23:36] <tomreyn> just_some_guy: there is #ubuntu-server for this purpose
[23:37] <tomreyn> (but i guess you can ask here, too.)
[23:37] <just_some_guy> OK well I don't want to tread on anyone's toes so just yell if you want me to move haha
[23:39] <just_some_guy> I have a fresh install, and I'm just running it as a test to learn some linux stuff because I am relatively inexperienced. Unfortunately I only have wifi here at home
[23:39] <just_some_guy> So I want to connect it up to the wifi but all I have is a netgear usb dongle, and no drivers
[23:40] <just_some_guy> I tried to copy ndiswrapper over on a usb stick, and then make install but it seems I don't have make installed
[23:40] <blkadder> Have you checked to see if the device is supported?
[23:44] <just_some_guy> Yeah I guess I am asking for it a bit maybe, there are threads where people have managed to get it to work with some difficulty but I don't think it is officially supported
[23:45] <blkadder> With native linux drivers or via ndiswrapper?
[23:45] <just_some_guy> via ndiswrapper, so I guess not
[23:46] <tomreyn> this really sounds like you should replace this piece of hardware by something supported
[23:46] <tomreyn> do yourself a favor.
[23:48] <just_some_guy> yeah I guess
[23:49] <just_some_guy> Oh well never mind, thanks for the advice
