I made a simple script that sets the properties of my touchpad. I would like that script to load each time I boot into Ubuntu. Where should I save that script? Also, I read I have to execute this command: chmod 755 script_name.sh. Do I have to provide the directory where the script is saved?

[01:16] arog: just replace the shutdown executable with a script and setup ssh keys. I would keep a backup of the shutdown command so you can fix it if you need to. [01:16] will this command remove all temporary files out of all folders recursively? [01:17] rm -rf *~ [01:18] temporary files have ~ at the end of the filename?

[01:30] #ubuntu-steam BlitzerHound [01:30] sorry for the noob question, I'm googling but not having much luck [01:30] I'll try that one, thanks. [01:34] leptone: The kernel generally takes care of " necessary drivers " . What drivers are you in reference to ? [01:34] Bashing-om, well i think i need one for the WIFI for instance [01:34] currently I do not see the the option to add a wifi network [01:35] in settings > network [01:35] sudo ubuntu-drivers list or directly sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall [01:35] OerHeks, but I'm not on the internet as idont have the wifi driver [01:35] leptone: Maybe: what shows in the "Additinal Drivers" utility ? many times drivers for WIFI are proprietary :( [01:36] leptone, then use the wired internet [01:36] OerHeks, unfortunately i don't have access to wired internet at the moment === ilfantomas_ is now known as ilfantomas [01:37] Bashing-om, additional drivers utility? [01:37] where do i find that? [01:38] type 'driver' in dash and the tools shows up .. but needs internet too [01:38] leptone: Once ya have internet - the Additional drivers is in a tab within software sources . [01:39] can some one tell me how to kill a process in the terminal? [01:39] do you know the pid [01:39] kill [01:40] so it says its not using the NVIDIA GM206 GeForce GTX 960 and its also not using the Broadcom Corp BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [01:40] so obviously i want to tell it to start using those? [01:40] leptone, yes, with wired networking enabled [01:40] so move your pc to a place with a wire [01:41] whats pid stand for? [01:41] process ID [01:42] http://askubuntu.com/questions/180336/how-to-find-the-process-id-pid-of-a-running-terminal-program [01:42] it wouldn't let me use those drivers bc it says they are proprietary [01:44] leptone, yes, they are not on the iso. [01:45] Are they having the same problems that I was having on the wireless thing? Because I finally solved that and the stuff I needed was on the ISO. [01:49] How do I connect to WDS with NetworkManager on my ubuntu installation? [01:50] jello [01:50] what's wds [01:50] test [01:52] WDS is a non-standard but commonly implemented way of allowing access points to connect to each other - extra data for mac address matching is transferred instead of lost [01:53] OerHeks, found a long cable :) [01:53] when i ran the autoinstall [01:54] ALso, something called 4addr is related somehow. Anyway, how do you configure that with networkmanager? [01:54] it is asking me which default display manager i want to use [01:54] gdm3 or lighted [01:54] is one preferable over the other? [01:55] leptone, strange question after a fresh install [01:55] OerHeks, :/ [01:55] yeah whys that? [01:57] ok yes i have the pid, but if it says operation not permitted, is that because i just cant or is there a way around? [01:58] marty__: if your current user doesn't own the process you'll have to use sudo [01:58] sudo kill [01:59] ok last question, if i kill these and something goes wrong will a computer restart reset these values? [01:59] arog: run 'which shutdown', mine's at /sbin/shutdown [01:59] really depends on what it is... What process are you trying to kill? [01:59] mostly network stuff [01:59] marty__: but most probably, yes [02:03] Hello :) [02:04] Can anyone please help me with fstab entries for smb?

(i also enabled fw ubuntu, but this was accepting 22 already. i checked via fw status) [02:12] :) Im glad i could help you BlitzerHound [02:12] Same. :3 [02:12] I've been wanting to play this for sooo long [02:12] what's up with this bug and how long does it take to fix something in ubuntu land?: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1666421 [02:12] Launchpad bug 1666421 in linux (Ubuntu Yakkety) "kernel 4.4.0-63 with USB WLAN RTL8192CU freezes desktop" [High,Fix committed] [02:13] wow, that was cool ... and fast [02:14] im using my neighbors wifi for my computer, and something has been taking his signal it seemd mbps were still running high with nothing connected, we changed the password several times, his playstation system began to act funny and now my system is too, a lady up stairs got her phone time disapeard, can any one offer some insite on this? [02:15] try #networking [02:15] make sure the wifi isn't running WEP or WPS [02:16] and stop using your neighbor's wifi, you mooch :) [02:17] wep and wps are highly hackable, and i have explain this to him but would that account for problems for software/hardware connected to the signal? [02:17] so i am running on corebird via twitter. so i just click the video, but it say need gst-plugins-bad>=1.6 but i don't see 1.6 in Synatic [02:17] i pay half lol wedgie [02:18] rickety: it could if some third party was on it and torrenting as hard as they could. But i thik rdad is right, this is a better topic for #networking as it has nothing to do with ubuntu [02:18] !info gst-plugins-bad xenial [02:18] Package gst-plugins-bad does not exist in xenial [02:19] thanks wedgie, half the reason i brought it up here is im using ubuntu 16.04, why is my system acting funny? [02:21] rickety: don't know. You're going to have to be a lot more specific about what "funny" means === BlitzerHound_ is now known as BlitzerHound [02:22] Are there apps that work like launcher - that slide from the edge of the screen on by pressing a key or moving mouse agains it? [02:22] So I had one other question. Whenever I go into something that's fullscreen, when I exit fullscreen I can't do anything. Everything is just stuck on whatever graphic was just showing and I can't click, power down properly, or switch to another program via alt+tab. Is that something I could possibly fix? [02:22] the internet i understand its not signal, things like the terminal wont open untill i reboot 2-3 times vlc and standard videos crashes often, today i had to restart 4 times just to get to the os [02:23] i know funny is general but ya know funny, its ubuntu, it really shouldnt right? [02:24] rickety: well, kinda sounds like hardware. But to rule that out, boot off of a livecd/usb. If that works ok then it's probably your install. If that also acts funny, then i would suspect hardware [02:25] Is there a keyboard shortcut that's similar to ctrl+alt+del like windows has in case the system freezes? [02:25] I'm working on a hackathon. I have a linux AWS instance. I needed to resize the partition. Was 8GB now 100. [02:25] Can someone look this over and tell me whether I've `sudo parted` correctly? [02:25] Or if so, how to correct? [02:25] https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/e12d0f0af247e2e601cdfad90b9f2f0b [02:27] wedgie, ive tried live, it must be hardware then, ive had 2 drives ( fairly new ) done kuput fail on me, with-in the last 3 months, this must be something im doing wrong? [02:27] i guess that isnt ubuntu, can you direct me to further by chance? [02:28] #hardware is a thing, i think [02:28] thanks [02:28] ##hardware that is [02:29] having some difficulties in figuring out how to boot a windows 10 iso file to my usb. I've done some research on WinUSB/this fork https://github.com/slacka/WinUSB, is this valid? [02:29] if no one can help I'll just type `quit` and deal with whatever happens. But if someone's looking, please let me know and I'll wait. :P [02:30] NiteRaidah2, booting usb is outside of the ubuntu support range. ask ##windows [02:31] righto. [02:32] mustmodify: TBH, running away as hard as I can ! " Warning: Partition /dev/xvda1 is being used. " [02:32] mustmodify: it looks like you deleted it and recreated it, not resized anything [02:38] cfhowlett ive also tried doing simmilar things as usb booting, ive had success in doing so with linux only, i havnt tried windows, is what your saying is that windows is not usb bootable? [02:39] rickety, I'm saying that this is the *ubuntu* support channel. for windows support, ask ##windows. [02:42] yeah,. i deleted all my files and directories in /var/log to now understand that i shouldn't have done that [02:42] cf, ah ok, if i were to do a usb boot project for windows os, im using ubuntu, i have unetbootin but unetbootin for some reason does not like the windows iso or something, can you recomend another bootloader such as unetbootin, before i go to the windows page? [02:42] i thought they'd get created again on reboot [02:42] help please [02:43] my name is santiago and i have lubuntu 16.10 [02:43] Dr-007: yes,they should. unless you deleted /var/log as well [02:44] No sound from speakers but headphones work [02:44] help me [02:44] please [02:45] pleaseeeee [02:45] i'm having trouble starting mysql. apparmor="DENIED" [02:45] anyone [02:47] can you help me comunitty?? [02:47] No sound from speakers but headphones work [02:48] hello? [02:48] did you try turning it on and off again? [02:48] thousaand of times [02:48] please sanjovies: wait. Somebody will eventually know about what you are talking about (I don't) [02:48] hggdh, i just checked it out. most dirs were created. but apache i had to do manually. mysqld is still not working with me. apparmor is denying it to start [02:49] No sound from speakers but headphones work [02:49] check in dmesg if you recognize your soundcard and/or speakers [02:49] I'd need way more information to even begin to suggest a fix sanjovies [02:50] Like was it working before, what sound card is it, are you using pulseaudio, alsa, did you attempt to see if anything was muted in the options [02:50] Dr-007: check what apparmor is complaining about [02:52] when i increase headsets volume in alsamixer speakers work, but every time i restart it reverses [02:52] its anonoying [02:53] what does apparmor do anyway? [02:53] AppArmor ("Application") is a Linux kernel security module that allows the system administrator to restrict programs' capabilities with per-program profiles. Profiles can allow capabilities like network access, raw socket access, and the permission to read, write, or execute files on matching paths. [02:54] Wikipedia [02:54] Is it alsa or pulseaudio you are using ? I know alsa has a Pre-Amp you can adjust to boost the volume in the config [02:54] alsa [02:55] i use alsa [02:55] If it works after you adjust it until reboot... [02:55] hi all [02:56] "alsactl store" will save the settings [02:56] x [02:57] I'll try it now and think I had to reinstall ubuntu [02:57] sanjovies, it wouldn't hurt to delete everything in home/.config/pluse and reboot and then set you volumes from the system settings panel [02:58] ill be back in a few moments [02:58] pulse i mean on that dir [03:03] it's cold in my land [03:03] Well I'm out. If the alsactl store doesn't work you'll need to specify where the file actually is. I think under /var/lib/alsa/asound.state or ~/.config/asound.state [03:03] wastrel: it will pass.

[03:44] locale shows POSIX to everything [03:44] i tried locale-gen en_US.UTF-8 [03:45] no sudo, no locale ozcanesen ... [03:46] cfhowlett, but i am root? [03:46] you should not be root on an ubuntu system [03:46] !root [03:46] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [03:47] cfhowlett, yes it works [03:47] i have problem with VirtualBox install on Ubuntu, Ubuntu is hosting windows10 [03:48] i cant access my usb and harddisk partion on windows 19 [03:49] cfhowlett, but this is a docker container of course i can be root, that is the all point of it [03:50] I can't advise about docker as I have no experience, but sudo is the ubuntu default. settings things up while you are root leads to unpredictable results. and dockers respond to sudo, do they not?

[05:25] neutron_: 18.04 [05:25] ubuntu releases are yy.mm [05:25] neutron_: 18 04 :p [05:26] neutron_: LTS is every 2 years [05:26] I am 12.04 is ending support [05:26] and I cannot wait that long [05:26] neutron_: yep, 12+5=17 [05:26] neutron_: you can upgrade to 14.04 or 16.04 [05:26] you know there are two newer LTS than 12.04 [05:27] I have this heavy duty machine [05:27] neutron_: early 2018. every 2 years. https://www.ubuntu.com/info/release-end-of-life [05:27] I cannot upgrade distro frequently [05:27] I cannot risk breaking things [05:27] neutron_: good thing you're on LTS then... [05:27] that's what LTS is for :) [05:28] So, I can upgrade to 16.04. When does its support end? [05:28] neutron_: yea, it's really time to replace Precise. April 27 [05:28] 16+5=21 [05:28] !releasenotes | neutron_ [05:28] neutron_: Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus) release notes can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes [05:29] Is there any chance that 12.04 will be extended till April 2018 so that I can directly jump to 18.04? [05:29] not sure if you want to jump to that in one step or multiple steps though [05:29] neutron_: no [05:29] usually i would just go one step at a time [05:29] You sure that 12.04 support won't be extended? [05:29] set your updater to lts only then let it do its thing [05:29] neutron_: yes and you can't skip anyway [05:29] no it whont [05:30] 10.04 was extended by almost 2 years. [05:30] go to trusty (14.04) first [05:30] I guess I will have to install 16.04 [05:30] 14.04? [05:30] why? [05:31] 12.04 can only upgrade to 14.04 [05:31] So, I have to upgrade to 14.04 and then go 16.04? [05:31] yep then let it go to 16.04 [05:31] if you want 16.04 yes [05:31] because you might not want to have to adjust so many things at once. depends what services you are running. for example adjustments for Apache 2.2 -> 2.4 you need because of syntax changes [05:31] i dunno what your trying not to brake [05:31] neutron_: and there is always clean install if you want... [05:32] this is going to be a huge pain and a lot of downtime [05:32] And I have only 30 days left. [05:33] how many servers? [05:33] neutron_: next time dont wait too long? [05:33] i dunno what your trying not to mess up [05:33] yea should not let your systems fall that far behind [05:34] if you have a large cluster, cant you reinstall them one by one without much downtime by depooling one, reinstall, repool.. next server [05:35] Thank you very much. [05:35] I'll start my upgrade. Have a nice day, folks. [05:37] bet ya that doesn't work 10.04 to 16.04 lol wow [05:37] sys admins lol 10 years to upgrade and they wait till the last second [05:39] uname -a Linux unknown linux-2.1.102 #1 SMP Sun Mar 26 14:21:00 CEST 2017 x86_64 GNU/Linux [05:39] lol === bocaneri is now known as Bock === Bock is now known as Boc [06:10] Well my laptop started at 12.10 (I believe) and has been upgraded through every release since [06:10] I bet you can do that with 10.04 as well [06:11] !who | geez[m] [06:11] geez[m]: As you can see, this is a large channel.

[06:27] majnoon: try the ##networking channel mate [06:28] asking every where :P :D [06:28] majnoon! Should be OK , try and see if it works, you usually get about 30 IP addresses form a cable modem DHCP server === Guest34296 is now known as jasonj8 [06:33] majnoon: what is the other ethernet connected to.. you do not give much info.. in short.. it's fine [06:40] Hi guys! Need help to install ubuntu 16.04.2 to small laptop with EFI 32bit working on Intel Atom Z3735g [06:41] I found bootia32.efi file and put it on my USB flashdrive into /EFI/BOOT/ to have ability to run ubuntu from USB [06:41] but during installation I obtained a error that unable to install efi-32 to my drive... [06:44] this_self! Did you boot the usb stick in uefi mode ? [06:45] Of course. Using rufus I have wrote ISO with ubuntu 16.04.2 amd64 in UEFI mode. My laptop see only USB with efi32 file [06:46] Right now I repeat installing ubuntu... and try to snap that error and put here for detailed description.. [06:47] this_self: talk to EriC^^ he's our uefi wizard [06:48] :D Thanks guys! I'll try to write him:) [06:48] this_self: try to run the installer with "ubiquity -b" then manually install grub afterwards [06:49] EriC^^: you ninja'd me! :-P [06:50] lol [06:50] getting slow in my old age :) [06:50] EriC^^, thanks! I'll try it. Also I found that I need grub-efi-ia32 package. [06:51] this_self: yup, remember to chroot to the install first, then install that package [06:52] I thought that I need to install it before run ubiquity... Also I saw that after installing this package grub-common was reconfigured. I thought that it add support 32bit efi.... So thanks for this description. Now I'll try to run installer with -b parameter and install grub manually === dewwii is now known as deww [07:19] is there an OS X channel on IRC? [07:19] anybody know how i can set "don't show window contents while moving" in unity? [07:19] !alis | lesshaste ask in #freenode next time [07:19] lesshaste ask in #freenode next time: Alis is an IRC service to help you find channels. For help on using it, see "/msg Alis help list" or ask in #freenode. Example usage: "/msg Alis list http" [07:19] does ubuntu ship with intel iris pro drivers? [07:23] realies: pretty sure it does === Boc is now known as Bock [07:35] hello [07:35] i am a new ubuntu [07:35] ducasse, thanks, will try use it alongside the dedicated one [07:36] i using it for my studying [07:36] i am a IT student [07:47] any devs awake? [07:47] found a bug in ubuntu [07:47] 30mb/s read from SSD [07:47] Windows 500 [07:48] Fedora 500 [07:48] ubuntu 30 [07:48] Linux ubuntu-ThinkPad-E460 4.8.0-45-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 24 11:46:39 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [07:52] javi404: you sure the partition(s) are not misaligned for some reason, for example? [07:53] ducasse [07:53] ducasse: going to link you to a post [07:54] ducasse: https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/62fvr4/new_crucial_ssd_slow_but_only_in_ubuntu/dfn48cg/ [07:54] ducasse: I have isolated it to ubuntu [07:57] ducasse: ? [07:57] it it time to just replace with fedora? [07:57] system doesn't seem slow but that is because i put in 16GB of ram [07:57] but 30MB/s is like USB disk performance [07:58] try googling your disk model number + ubuntu, see if others report the same. [07:59] I checked firmware, it is up to date [08:00] ducasse: googled, nothing of note [08:00] CT525MX300SSD1 [08:00] hello, i'd like to have dnsmasq started with the following configuration: dnsmasq --interface=br0 --bind-interfaces --dhcp-range=192.168.8.2,192.168.8.254 [08:00] it's ubuntu or the kernel [08:00] pick one [08:00] where should i config that? in systemd or somewhere else [08:01] lorddoskias1: what are you trying to accomplish? [08:01] i have an internal bridged network for my vm's and i want to have a dhcp server that services them so i don't have to config them manually when i spin them up [08:02] so i want to use it only on br0 [08:02] bridge is not bridged to a real nic/lan? [08:02] nope [08:02] it's internal bridge only [08:04] i haven't used dnsmasq in a bit but you don't have to do anything in systemd except make sure the service is set to start [08:04] then have it listen on the ip on the bridge [08:04] assign an ip on the bridge interface if you haven't [08:04] i have [08:04] okay, i got it [08:04] thanks [08:04] np === mudo_ is now known as mudo [08:10] lorddoskias1: I was wondering, isn't that the default with libvirt? internal network and auto assigned IPs? [08:10] i don't use libvirt [08:16] lorddoskias1: what do you use? [08:16] blackflow very long qemu-system-x86_64 command lines :D [08:19] lorddoskias1: but that just uses libvirt, doesn't it? at any rate, you don't need to set up a bridge manually, the default for qemu is the same [08:19] default is SLIRP [08:19] lorddoskias1: eg. -net nic, -net user [08:21] hmm, indeed, slirp [08:21] hi [08:21] how do I use the linux desktop as a router? [08:21] Is it possible? [08:22] refill: yes [08:22] iptables [08:22] refill: google [08:22] which aritcle [08:22] Didact69: how [08:23] refill: for example, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Router [08:23] javi404: on your slow disk I wonder if that might be some odd issue with how hdparm issues I/O and the kernel does default attribs of the device [08:23] javi404: would you be open to try an mkfs of your choice (most basic ext4 would do) and run fio with /usr/share/doc/fio/examples/ssd-test.fio against it [08:24] javi404: that already provides far more insight to latencies and such [08:24] cpaelzer: im open to testing things [08:24] javi404: from there one can tune fio according to theories we come up and/or run blktrace along to see where things fail [08:24] cpaelzer: but high level question, why is it only in ubuntu i see this? [08:24] no prob on fedora or winblows [08:25] javi404: it could be default attribs/features of the disks based on the kernel version [08:25] ah [08:25] i see [08:25] what can i see, tune live? [08:25] javi404: do you test ubuntu from the live cd as well as the F25? [08:25] i installed ubuntu as a 2nd os before i noticed [08:25] but i can try the live cd and report back [08:26] live fedora cd no prob [08:26] javi404: yeah, pastebin the full fio result or so [08:26] javi404: from there we can try to think about it [08:26] cpaelzer: i need to make space if i am roing to run mkfs [08:27] or blow the install away [08:27] or use gparted to shrink parts [08:27] is there an easier way? [08:27] there has to be something in /sys/ i can look at [08:27] javi404: I might come up with a fio template that is read only and works on the device [08:28] javi404: is the disk holding your ubuntu and windows in partitions each? [08:28] cpaelzer: yes, both [08:28] hdparm -tT confirms it is only in ubuntu that is installed where the problem is [08:28] fresh install from 2 days ago [08:28] 16.10 [08:28] javi404: well for the start you might just run fio vs /tmp then [08:28] javi404: you have an FS [08:29] FS, file servers? [08:29] yes [08:29] FS => filesystem [08:29] i have like 15TB available by NFS/CIFS if needed [08:29] fine without it [08:30] since your / is on the disk already you might just run ... [08:30] mkdir -p /mount-point-of-ssd; fio /usr/share/doc/fio/examples/ssd-test.fio [08:30] the first is the default path that template runs against [08:30] feel free to modify [08:30] taking a look [08:31] i havent used fio befoe [08:31] before [08:31] it is the de-facto disk I/O perf tool used by the kernel devs and most perf analysts [08:31] there are specials for other occassions, but this is the most one-stop-for-all tool [08:33] cpaelzer: testing now [08:34] I test on my older ssd as well so we can compare if needed [08:34] looks like it wants to write a 10GB file, its running. [08:34] yes it lays out 10G and then does various read write patterns on it [08:34] yeah, i mean i get almost 500MB/s everywhere on ssd maxing out SATA [08:34] lets see how it runs [08:34] but i used dd to read files and it shits to 30MB/s [08:35] windows and fedora work ok [08:35] i think it is something in the kernel [08:35] we will see [08:35] ack [08:37] javi404: should look like that more or less then http://paste.ubuntu.com/24286786/ [08:38] cpaelzer: going to run iotop as well to watch this file wrie [08:38] write* still going [08:38] javi404: lets settle on one of the workloads first, the default is running 4 polarizing I/O patterns [08:38] k [08:38] javi404: on the results we can settle on one to look into and then iotop/blktrace might become our friend [08:41] looks like it has about 3-4 min left [08:41] cpaelzer: ^ [08:41] Hi all, at work I use my laptop with two external monitors. When I lock it, the monitors will go to sleep shortly after, however a few seconds after they go to sleep, they wake up again, and continue in this cycle. Any idea how I can find out what is causing them to wake up? [08:42] pchoo, does it append with the laptop screen when external monitor is unpluged? [08:43] ikevin: gimme a sec, I'll check [08:44] No, only with the external monitors [08:44] are they connected over hdmi? [08:44] One is HDMI, and the other is VGA [08:44] I'll connect them one at a time and try [08:44] cpaelzer: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24286802/ [08:44] got results [08:44] learning to read them [08:44] making a drink too [08:44] becuase its almost 5am [08:44] so fuck it [08:45] install faille [08:45] error grup [08:45] Ok, it didn't happen when I had just the VGa monitor connected, I've just added the HDMI monitor [08:45] in UEFI 32bits [08:45] pchoo, if you can, try to disable ecc on the hdmi monitor [08:45] ikevin: ok, thanks, it just happened when I added the HDMI monitor, so it's definitely that one [08:46] pchoo, maybe the monitor send a signal to the pc over hdmi [08:46] ikevin: thanks, I'll look into that :) [08:47] you welcome [08:47] javi404: the good thing is that the most simple workload is already crappy slow - good since now you can debug from here [08:48] javi404: I'd focus on seq-read then, as long as that isn't fast nothing will be and it is at 12 MB/s in your case [08:48] I don't even know where to start [08:48] cpaelzer: exactly [08:48] seq should be the fastest shit [08:48] this is not my first ubuntu bug [08:49] i should probably file a bug report [08:49] but im lazy [08:49] i guess i can file report, and just post links [08:49] we know it isn't hardware [08:49] has to be kernel and/or ubuntu === pax2you1 is now known as pax2you [08:52] javi404: ok you have a secondary latency peak [08:52] ? [08:53] not yet sure what causes this, but that is what you/I/the bug report has to find out [08:53] javi404: I'll guide you on the result data [08:53] javi404: if you look at seq-read other than the averages it splits several latency stats [08:54] looking [08:54] javi404: there you see that ~40% of your requests are relatively fast at 50-100 µsec that is not perfect but kind of ok [08:54] javi404: then there is nothing for a while but then there is a second spike with 49.20% of your requests taking ~4 ms [08:54] javi404: that is what is slowing you down [08:55] cpaelzer: but why only in this os? [08:55] since this is already direct+async I/O very likely a bug in the kernel version - you said you are running yakkety right? [08:55] I wonder if that has a common problem with my issue of dd-ing to USB grinding the interactivity down to a halt [08:56] blackflow: could be [08:56] blackflow: x86 is notoriously bad ad separating I/O from the rest of the workload [08:56] ikevin: I disabled the source scanning on the monitor, i.e. set it to HDMI, and it prevented the monitors from waking up when they slept, but at the same time, when I manually work the computer, i.e. moved the mouse, the monitor did not come back on at all, and it was turned off in the display settings [08:56] because Debian 9 on the very same machine doesn't have those issues [08:56] cpaelzer: let me check again kernel === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo [08:56] blackflow: you can throttle that I/O so that the IRQs are somewhat in shape and get off without issues [08:56] 4.8.0-45-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 24 11:46:39 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [08:57] blackflow: the same is true for so many - like background indexers filling up I/O [08:57] yes yakkety [08:57] cpaelzer: yes, when I use nice -n 19 it's okay. But still, Debian on that same machine doesn't have those issues [08:57] ? [08:57] blackflow: seems like you are confirming the bug i found [08:57] blackflow: sometimes that is the price of one requesting faster I/O, bug gets fixed and the fast I/O then kills interactivity [08:57] blackflow: but I don't know your details - and unfortunately it is different every time [08:58] javi404: ok that is the stock yakkety one [08:58] yep [08:58] like i said [08:58] clean install from 2 days ago [08:58] nothing custom [08:58] cpaelzer: I see. but perhaps it's time to separate desktop from server kernels then? fast IRQ, low Hz for server, high Hz and interactivity for desktop? :) [08:58] javi404: If we assume it is a kernel bug that is the first you'll be asked anyway - so could you try https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [08:59] javi404: I'd recommend trying 4.10 and 4.4.58 [08:59] with that data at hand you could un-lazify and do a bug report then [09:00] just rerun the fio with those two extra kernels and report all three results in a kernel bug [09:00] cpaelzer: ill go with newest mainline kernel [09:00] but it is going to take me some time [09:00] try sometihng that isn't rc level [09:00] little drunk at the moment [09:00] ok will do [09:00] lol === MasterScript is now known as zz_MasterScript [09:00] blackflow: its 5am [09:00] and i have a drink in my hand fuck it [09:01] cpaelzer: thanks for your hep [09:01] help [09:01] ill go mainline kernel tomorrow morning [09:01] or in a few hours i mean [09:02] javi404: if you want subscribe "paelzer" on launchpad once you report a bug [09:02] always love perf issues as an old hobby [09:02] me too [09:02] im a hardware, kind of guy [09:02] and when reporting mind https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Bugs [09:02] got it [09:03] on that end blackflow as a totally non helpful hint, that I/O stalling would not happen on a mainframe, although to get an USB disk there needs a lot of code not legally released I think [09:03] and might be too expensive [09:04] cpaelzer: yearning for the glorious days of mainframes? :) [09:05] it was nice, but then for thta price it is supposed to be right :-) [09:05] and since I neither have a porsche nor a pool it seems some things are nice but too pricy for me === uhhf1 is now known as uhhf [09:06] :) [09:11] hello everybody [09:13] Hi, I don't know if this is a problem in ssh, ubuntu or cygwin. Either way, the problem is that I use ssh in cygwin to connect to a number of different ubuntu servers. What they all have in common is that after a while of inactivitity they sometimes hang. No connection lost or anything. They just stops accepting input. I can't even abort the current connection. [09:14] Doow: if you can't abort connection, it sounds like a problem on the client side [09:16] blackflow, you might be right. I might be trying to interrupt the 'wrong' way. I'm not sure what decides to close if I do e.g. ctrl+d. === pax2you1 is now known as pax2you [09:18] Doow: well, openssh client can abort by typing ~. and hitting enter [09:18] I'll try that the next time :) [09:20] Doow: also there are timeout settings both on the server and client side like TCPKeepAlive and ClientAliveInterval (sshd only) [09:21] i am new to ubuntu [09:21] Doow: and then sometimes it just happens, eps. if your IP changes [09:21] please introduce me some ref for terminal scirpting [09:22] hunter: google for "bash", that's the default shell [09:22] blackflow, at least one thing I know doesn't happen (my ip has been the same since I got this computer) [09:30] こんばんは [09:32] 日本語しかできません。 [09:32] !jp [09:32] 日本語の場合は /join #ubuntu-jp または /join #kubuntu-jp を入力して下さい。 [09:33] /join #ubuntu-jp　　こんばんは [09:34] anyone know of any rp chats?

Am trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 from a running system: ramdisk w/ busybox. How would I launch the netinstaller without rebooting? [10:47] Ah, to answer myself: debootstrap [10:49] `apt remove --purge postfix mail-stack-delivery -y 2>&1 | pastebinit` gives me http://paste.ubuntu.com/24287331/ [10:50] systemctl status dovecot.service 2>&1 | pastebinit gives me http://paste.ubuntu.com/24287333/ [10:51] how can i remove the postfix-mail-stack-delivery package? [10:51] Hans > mkdir -p /etc/dovecot; touch /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf [10:51] maybe reinstall dovocot so its config files returns [10:51] And try again [10:51] or hack it like that [10:52] haha, that mkdir/touch worked, thanks! [10:52] apt remove --purge postfix mail-stack-delivery -y worked now [10:53] and thanks for the pastbinit, didn't know that one! [10:53] you can also do `apt purge |& pastebinit` as shorthand for purging & capturing both stdout/stderr to the pipe [10:54] it sure comes in handy sometimes ^^ - but with the default settings, make sure not to post anything overly sensitive, like passwords/etc === anon is now known as Guest46162 [10:56] how is |& different from 2>&1 ?

[11:00] no no [11:00] deleted the whole thing and now this again [11:01] no norton [11:01] Hanshenrik, same, just shorter [11:01] firewall dear [11:01] norton is antivirus [11:01] gotcha [11:01] I have a quick question.. when I'm removing old kernels from the system, an initrd image gets created for each kernel.. why is that??? https://pastebin.com/5QYk4QSL [11:01] yasma: any firewall on linux is iptables, there are various frontends to configure it tho, like !ufw [11:02] ok [11:02] line 22 [11:03] !firewall | yasma [11:03] yasma: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo [11:04] therefore have not a firewall trade [11:04] demo version? [11:08] Yasma, you're talking gibberish [11:10] I'm sorry.no problem .bye [11:13] hi === sag is now known as Guest72751 [11:15] ciao [11:15] Hiyas all [11:15] hi [11:20] last week i ask here how to dedicate a core to process! [11:20] someone suggest to me cset command, or cpuset solution. [11:21] now i see my process annoying by context switch. [11:21] hello [11:21] is there exist any solution in ubuntu to prevent context switch for special process? [11:22] my process need to use exactly 100% of one core. [11:22] my system has 4 core, the other cores will be available for scheduling. [11:24] repozitor: only if you schedule all _other_ processes to other cores. You can pin a process to a core but that doesn't guarantee other processes won't use the core. [11:25] repozitor: for such things the containers are helpful because you can then isolate process groups and set cpu/core affinity per container [11:27] blackflow, your saying i should shield my special process to core X, and shield other processes to other core, right? [11:29] Hey [11:29] Just wanna ask something [11:29] Why do I always get lags when watching a video [11:29] I'm using Nvidia, btw [11:30] anyone? [11:30] gardon: there are many things to consider.. [11:30] Like? [11:30] And I had a guy told me to install primusrun and so I did [11:31] How do I use primusrun for video [11:31] gardon: hardware, cpu usage, swapping, disk i/o, driver problems,,, [11:31] gardon: you don't give much info and expact answers [11:31] expect even ;) [11:32] Idk what infos to give that's why [11:32] I'm just watching a video and hace chromium run in background [11:32] My computer has i3 1.8Ghz 2x [11:32] repozitor: exactly [11:32] Then Nvidia 620M [11:32] I'm using a laptop [11:33] gardon: if you have a computer powerfull enough (good cpu, plenty ram, good video)... then it could be a driver issue or even a codec issue.. [11:33] and have chromium* [11:33] It runs well on Windows [11:33] repozitor: there _is_ cpuset.cpu_exclusive setting, check cpuset manpage for more info, but I'm not sure exactly how that works for existing processes [11:33] 4GB Ram [11:34] blackflow, are you sure my context switch number for my realtime process will be without changing? [11:34] nvidia support for linux is bad [11:34] i have no idea about process container technogology [11:34] That's what I heard [11:34] so.. for smooth video, use windows.. [11:34] how about primusrun? [11:35] I though that was supposed to make things smooth [11:35] gardon: I don't know anything about that.. try and see [11:35] gardon: a pint of beer makes video smooth aswell ;) [11:35] Anyone knows how to use primusrun to run videos? [11:35] Nah, I'm done with any type of liquor [11:36] repozitor: well, I don't know if that number includes CS for kernel-userspace switches, which are normal and can't be avoided [11:36] @atum maybe you can help me out [11:36] blackflow, gathering new generated process id is hard for me! [11:36] the code for running firefox using primusrun is: [11:36] sudo primusrun firefox [11:36] Idk what's for video [11:36] repozitor: as for cpu affinity settings, yes, properly set, they won't migrate to other cores [11:36] bjr === acoolernick__ is now known as acoolernick [11:37] blackflow, if other process won't migirate to Core X, can we say scheduling won't do context switch on my realtime process? [11:37] primusrun offloads opengl to the gpu.. nice.. I haven't used it yet.. have also recently switched to amd.. not to say amd is all that better [11:38] blackflow, i need to run a realtime process. it need exactly 100 [11:38] Hmmm [11:38] 100% of cpu, can i do that with kernel extension? [11:38] Plz help lol [11:38] Anyone [11:38] gardon: you have windows, right? use that [11:39] I can't use Ubuntu for watching vids? :'( [11:39] @repozitor the videos application crashes (or lags) at some parts when watching video [11:39] repozitor: I'm not sure that's possible without having the process run entirely in kernel, if I understand what you want correctly. [11:40] repozitor: so a guy from here (proxx_) said I should install primusrun and so I did [11:40] gardon: maybe the same thing just name the video player instead firefox in that command? eg "primusrun vlc". I'm just assuming, I have on idea what primusrun does. [11:40] *no [11:40] GPU support is just bad for linux.. vendors keep things to themselves and offer only basic stuff to linux community.. I'm not a driver coder and have no influence on Nvidia, so... sorry [11:40] sudo primusrun videos [11:40] don't do anything [11:40] gardon, what is your video resulotion? [11:41] Screen resolution for monitor? [11:41] 1366:768 [11:41] and I'm just watching 360p vid or 480p === seprob_ is now known as seprob [11:42] or 720p, I'm not really sure but it's definitely not 1080p. [11:42] blackflow, what do you mean by run entirely in kernel? [11:42] do you mean kernel space? [11:42] you think kernel extension is process which is run in kernel space? [11:42] AtuM what video card is the best for linux? [11:42] Hello, is there a solution for the hang on reboot bug? [11:43] AtuM: I think I have to stick with Linux/Ubuntu because I'm tired of all the viruses you get when running windows. [11:43] repozitor: realtime computing is something I have very little experience, so I can't give you adequate advice, except like I said, you can make a process run exclusively on a core with cpusets, however, you can't avoid CS between kernel and userspace. How exactly realtime processes work in that regard, I don't know. [11:43] gardon: I have Intel on my notebook.. everything works smooth. I'm not a gamer though. I also have some cheap radeon card in my 8-core desktop.. everything runs fine.. [11:44] This is intel + nvidia. [11:44] can't answer what's best.. I'm not a hardware tester [11:44] Yup [11:44] Videos don't crash on your pc? [11:44] gardon: never [11:44] Arrgh [11:44] blackflow, ok thanks buddy [11:44] i should try on your first idea! [11:45] gardon: despite nvidia's bad support for linux compared to Windows, among the three (nvidia, amd, intel), nvidia has had least problems, in my 10+ year experience with it, so I'd always recommend nvidia for linux. [11:45] try to disable nvidia part.. I used to have a similar problem.. that worked for me [11:45] Now I'm getting mixed idea about my video card. [11:46] I don't know what to do grrr [11:46] gardon: or only enable nvidia gpu .. try not to switch between the two [11:46] Disabling the nvidia and then? [11:46] нужна помощь [11:46] Both of them are activated on my computer [11:46] no, just use nvidia like AtuM suggested [11:46] !ru | user__ [11:46] user__: Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke. [11:46] Alright I'm trying to disable intel [11:46] BRB [11:46] AtuM, install nvidi-prime and Bumblebee if you run Optimus hybrid graphics [11:47] nvidia-prime [11:47] gardon: I used to have some hybrid gpu intel+nvidia.. I coud set to force nvidia in bios [11:47] @Blueskaj I'm the guy that needs help lol [11:47] I have intel HD and nvidia gt 620m [11:47] Sooo, I have to install nvidia-prime and then bumblebee? [11:48] AtuM, sorry , wrong nick ;-) [11:49] Sooo, I have to install nvidia-prime and then bumblebee? [11:49] What's the code if so === jackNemrod_ is now known as jackNemrod [11:49] gardon, yes if your laptop uses Optimus [11:50] BluesKaj: What's the code for installing nvdia prime [11:50] gardon: I don't have such hardware, so I can't tell if that would help. I just know that it might make your life easier if you choose to use only nvidia in the bios settings. [11:51] AtuM I can also do it in the additional drivers, rigtH? [11:51] gardon: do what? [11:52] gardon, did your laptop come with intel and nvidia, or ?? [11:52] I think the intel driver is messed up [11:52] @Blueskaj, both [11:52] In the additional drivers, [11:52] the second part says Unknown: Unknown [11:52] This device is using an alternate driver. [11:53] Hello, is there a solution for the hang on reboot bug? [11:53] I chose Do not use this device in the Unknown Unknown AKA the Intel HD Graphics [11:53] AndroUser: yeah.. poweroff :P [11:54] gardon_,I asked if your laptop's graphics is called Optimus, do you knuw? , because we have to be sure [11:54] AndroUser: what bug is that? [11:54] Ohh, IDK [11:54] How do I find tat out [11:54] How do I determine that BluesKaj [11:55] gardon_: sudo lshw -C video , maybe [11:55] gardon_, it shuld be listed in the laptop manual in the specs [11:56] I don't have the manual anymore. [11:56] EriC^ here's the reply: https://paste.ee/p/0dRL4 [11:57] It is s remote server and if i need to restart, it hangs on reboot, but also on power off. The server is located elsewhere, so i don't have physical accws to it, to press the power switch every timw [11:57] AndroUser: your ssh connection hangs? [11:58] I ger the messsage reached target shutdown and then hug_task blocked for morw than 120 seconds, and this presists [11:59] AndroUser, which task? [12:00] AndroUser: just as a "first-aid workaround": # echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger <- this command "crashes" and reboots the computer.. might want to run "sync" before using it to flush all cached data to disk [12:00] So it don't reboots. Hug task, i can provide a pictute i have taken last tine i neeydet to visit [12:00] gardon_, certainly looks like Optimus, especially if it came equipped with 2 gpus [12:00] AtuM: I'm trying the Nvidia alone thing. [12:01] I click Do not use this device on the second driver. [12:01] BluesKaj: What to do now [12:01] gardon_: if "nvidia only" does not work for you.. optimus/bumblebee won't help either [12:02] Ill try this when i get to mc laptop [12:02] The screen just turned blue in the video [12:02] lmao === jackNemrod_ is now known as jackNemrod [12:02] Maybe it's the video application that has problem? [12:04] I'm just gonna switch back to windows. [12:04] I guess. [12:05] gardon_, uour options are nvidia-prine and bumblebee installation if you wnat to use both gpus as intended... intel for light graphic loads and nvidia for the higher loads [12:06] nvidia-prime , scuse my typos [12:06] Is watching a video considered higher load [12:06] 720p video [12:06] hello BluesKaj [12:06] gardon_, yes [12:07] hi kbob [12:08] http://nlug.ml1.co.uk/2016/02/an-almost-authoritative-guide-to-nvidia-prime-and-bumblebee/5065 [12:08] Is this the tutorial BluesKaj [12:09] gardon_, may be useful: https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/nvidia-geforce-6200-graphics-problem-solved/12284 === _salem is now known as salem_ === jackNemrod_ is now known as jackNemrod [12:15] gardon_, well, the Nottingham group uses an unsupported method (ppa), and the next time a new kernel is released and upgraded on your system that ppa won't upgrade and your system will break [12:16] Echo b > /proc/syrq-trigger crashes, and ssh tells no route to host, how can i orevent this state [12:16] Is there a ability to disable sysrw-trigger completely? [12:17] ouroumov_, that url doesn't apply to Optimus [12:17] AndroUser: dont you have access to the physical pc? [12:18] 30 more minutes, and then its a remote server [12:19] AndroUser, halt --reboot -f [12:20] AndroUser, or reboot -f === EriC^ is now known as EriC^^ [12:22] AndroUser: of course it crashes.. i told you this was a "first aid" for reboot.. it crashes and reboots the machine.. when it boots up again you can logon.. it's a "crash-reboot" [12:23] AtuM, wth is a crash-reboot? [12:24] BluesKaj: it's a non-clean reboot :) services are still running while the system hard-reboots.. [12:25] Yo I know about dmps set force off, but is there a way to turn off the monitor AND NOT TURN IT ON FOR KEYBRESSES? I want to type with the monitor off, and use a keyboard shortcut to turn the screen back on [12:25] I mean they run just before the system crashes [12:26] My colleege is 20 min at the serves place, then i need to get there on mondey for solving it, evey time i need to get there i need much time to get an apointment [12:26] semitones: turn off the monitor.. [12:27] My college told me that echo b crashed the server and din't rebootet it [12:27] Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction for switching my HDMI output to RGB (0-255) with an AMD card? [12:28] AndroUser: with sysrq it should boot back again.. this should not be needed for normal operation though.. if something is wrong with the whole system you should get there and fix it [12:29] AtuM, yes, how? It's a laptop [12:29] Hello [12:29] Do you think it is a good idea to release an Ubuntu rolling release version? [12:29] semitones: oh man.. don't you have that shortkey for powering off the monitor? [12:30] Yes, i should, the rest of the system is working well, only reboot and shutdown cause a oroblem.i tryed man advices from google, but nothing helped, i need to fix it on monday, but i don't know how [12:30] I've got one for sending it to another display, but there's no one for turning it off. I was wondering if there was a terminal command I could bind to a global shortcut to turn it off and on [12:31] AndroUser: start by checking the logs.. if a service is hanging and not stopping, you should find which one.. then debug to see why.. [12:31] semitones: set the brightness to zero [12:31] Logs are clean, syslog, kern log [12:32] AndroUser, what is your machine ? HP ? [12:32] Yes, hp [12:32] EriC^^, there's only so far the brightness will decrease using function keys. doesn't go to zero. Is there a 'set brightness to zero' terminal command I can investigate [12:32] AndroUser, are you fully updated ? [12:32] Yes [12:32] AndroUser, uname -r ? [12:32] AndroUser: are you using virtualization? [12:33] Ubuntu 16.04 and slso teied 16.10 [12:33] AndroUser: what software are you running on the server? [12:33] semitones: look into /sys/class/backlight [12:33] No virtualisation [12:33] AndroUser, uname -r , please [12:33] semitones: echo 0 > /sys/class/backlight/...../brightness [12:34] EriC^^, thanks [12:34] semitones: np [12:35] EriC^^: I bet semitones is doing something shady on someone elses notebook ;) [12:35] 4.8.0.44-generic [12:35] Hi [12:35] AtuM: nah, i think he has 2 screens and wants to turn one off [12:35] Tryed till 70-generic [12:35] AtuM, if only I were that sneaky. I just want to type something in freewrite style and not get distracted by typos [12:35] EriC^^: lol [12:36] AndroUser, sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [12:36] semitones: nice [12:36] I'm experiencing problems with the last kernel installed (4.4.0-71-generic), while the previous one works fine for me (4.4.0-70-generic). Looks like nvidia drivers won't start with (...).71 kernel. Can anybody tell me how to unistall it and to prevent Ubuntu from updating the kernel until a new version is released? [12:36] Thanks [12:37] Dinosaurio, how did you install nvidia drivers ? [12:37] ioria: Did it from the settings [12:38] Dinosaurio, with the Additional Drivers gui ? [12:38] AndroUser: did you have problems with the 16.04's kernel?? [12:38] With all kernels i have rryed [12:39] AndroUser: perhaps it's something specific to hp. have you found anything hp specific? [12:39] Nothing [12:40] AndroUser: have you installed hp's agents? [12:40] No [12:40] AndroUser, you first need to update your system, then try kernel parameters in /etc/default/grub [12:40] Standard ubuntu 16.04 or 16.10 i tryed [12:40] EriC^^, it works, brilliant! Or, the opposite of brilliant!!! [12:40] AndroUser: has this been a problem since clean installation? [12:41] Tryed all kernel parameters [12:41] Yes since clean install [12:41] AndroUser, what parameters you tried ? [12:42] ioria: I have some important taks to do this week so I just prefer to have the older kernel installed. In about 2 weeks I'll have some free time and will be able to check what's the problem with the drivers ;P [12:42] There are many bug reports an net, there is one post with all nernel parameters, acpi force [12:42] AndroUser: it could be some driver issue.. have you installed any specific drivers for the raid controller? [12:42] Dinosaurio, it's ok [12:43] It is a raid and no specific driver installed [12:43] AndroUser: perhaps you should do that then? have you checked if any specific driver exists for the controller? [12:45] No, it worked out of the box, expect reboot, so i din't cared about drivers [12:45] AndroUser: I've had bad experience using a generic sas driver (i believe it was mvsas) on a controller that needed specific drivers.. It seemed fine for a while but in reality it was not [12:46] Ok, i will look for it on monday [12:46] AndroUser: what controller is used? [12:47] AndroUser: # lspci -k (tells you what driver it uses too) [12:47] It is s hpe ml10 Gen9 E3-122225v5 8GB EU Svr/TV [12:49] I just connected my gmail account to my ubuntu using the online accounts [12:49] Hello. Can anyone help me fix my waste basket. I opened caja as root from the terminal and tried to delete a file. It didn't go to the wastebasket but is now gone anyway. The problem is that I can no longer send anything to the waste basket but only delete directly. I tried purging caja and using nemo instead but the result is the same. [12:49] AndroUser: it that a controller type or a server type???? [12:49] Server type [12:50] !yay | Tatou [12:50] Tatou: Glad you made it! :-) [12:50] But I have no google drive mounted? [12:50] AndroUser: so you expect me to read the manual and find out? :) [12:50] ubottu: ?

[12:55] Hi all - I installed Ubuntu Server 16.04 onto a freshly created VM (Proxmox) using the minimal Ubuntu ISO. I then installed gnome-session-flashback and xorg, but I cannot get the desktop env to start with 'sudo startx' and it doesn't start on bootup. [12:55] my xorg log is as follows http://paste.ubuntu.com/24287725/ [12:56] Daishun, nope, it should be owned by you, not by root [12:56] zetheroo: perhaps the #ubuntu-server guys might be of more help [12:56] lotuspsychje: I just got told from them to ask in #ubuntu :D [12:56] (14:55:28) rbasak: zetheroo: server people don't know xorg. Try #ubuntu. [12:56] zetheroo: server with gnome ? [12:57] kbob: yes - gnome-session-flashback to be exact [12:57] hmmm server guys forwarding server users to here, thats new [12:58] i'am little tired today, can someone confirm this command for Daishun ? sudo chown -R ~/.local/share/Trash [12:58] sudo startx, to start gnome u need something more like exec ..... [12:58] where is it specified which desktop env to start on boot? [12:58] I am looking at using chwon, not sure what to type [12:58] chown* [12:59] Daishun sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.local/share/Trash [12:59] zetheroo: install a *dm like gdm for gnome. then start gdm [12:59] startx doesnt work on the big desktop environments [12:59] so gnome-session-flashback doesn't pull in a gdm? [13:00] no [13:00] If I wanted to make a iso off a USB drive that is Windows mountable, can't I just dd if=/dev/usb-device-name or should I do if=/dev/usb-device-partition [13:01] i.e. /dev/sdg vs /dev/sdg1 [13:01] k1l_: what gdm options are there? (or is there just the one lightdm ... if that's what its called ...) [13:01] raub depends what the format of the iso is [13:02] I changed the owner. The error is gone but deleting a folder on my desktop is not showing in the wastebasket. I'll try a reboot and come back [13:02] hey [13:02] Southern_Gentlem: I am actually going th eother way: usb->iso [13:03] so yes if=/dev of=filename.iso [13:03] zetheroo: gdm and lightdm are both dm. its called Display Manager [13:03] what's the canonical way to enable /tmp on tmpfs (on ubuntu 16.04)? I see tmp.mount is not shipped by default unlike Debian where you can just 'systemctl enable tmp.mount'. [13:03] Southern_Gentlem: I did try that but when I fed it to a windows vm client as a disk, it would not mount. [13:05] hey [13:05] does ubuntu have selinux on a default desktop install? [13:05] k1l_: ok, installing lightdm [13:05] enabled by default [13:05] ? [13:05] !selinux | Jackneillll [13:05] Jackneillll: SELinux is available on Ubuntu, but not officially supported. Ubuntu uses another security framework by default, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor [13:05] yes [13:05] no [13:06] thanks [13:06] Jackneillll: afrikhaAIK it uses apparmor by default. But, selinux is a default package [13:06] s/afrikhaAIK/AFAIK [13:06] default package -> is in the default repo [13:06] what is the reason behind it? [13:06] using apparmor instead of selinux [13:07] !apparmor | Jackneillll [13:07] Jackneillll: For information about the AppArmor security framework employed in Ubuntu (since Gutsy Gibbon), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor [13:07] Jackneillll: the first thing people do on a system having selinux enabled by default is disable it.... it's just too hard to deal with. [13:07] Hello guys. [13:07] i see [13:07] People can connect to my FTP server through the public IP address, but I can't, why? [13:08] thanks [13:08] Who can solve my problem? [13:08] Lupus: likely routing. [13:08] What? [13:08] ah_, BS [13:08] Lupus: Is this at home, or on a business network? [13:08] Lupus: be carefull with ftp servers for security reasons [13:08] ah_: which was the case back when selinux policies were broken, and that advice has been invalid, and is even more so today.

[13:09] ah_: That sounds like Microsoft/Apple talk [13:09] But I want to access it through ftp://public_ip like others. [13:09] Port forwarding. [13:09] Lupus: did you check your log files for clues? [13:09] Yes. [13:10] You mean vsftpd.log? [13:10] Or something like that. [13:10] ftp? in this day and age? why not chrooted sftp (over ssh)? [13:11] Lupus: why is it important to you to use the public address? It sounds like the port forwarding isn't working properly when it has to re-route from inside your network back into the network. [13:11] @ioria I rebooted twice and the wastebasket is working as normal now with me as the owner but there is still a bug. When I click the wastebasket in caja then click another folder caja will crash. [13:11] It works. [13:11] Someone told me that I have to enable nat loopback. [13:12] Lupus: FinalX has a point tho, SFTP is just as easy to setup and WAY more secure. [13:12] I have and sftp. [13:12] k1l_: I now have a login screen. But when trying to login I get 'Failed to start session' in red text above the password input area [13:12] FTP is a pain to maintain firewall-wise as well, for sftp it's just one tcp port.

[13:35] Daishun: its not recommended to mix package versions on ubuntu [13:35] Hi. I'm having trouble with my USB devices being unresponsive, but still receive power through the cable (lightning can be adjusted on keyboard etc.). This also happened in Windows, so I'm wondering where i would find hardware logs to see if i can determine some cause? [13:36] Daishun: i would test LTS [13:36] Yeah, I'll try the LTS later [13:36] Neepu: When it's not detected, what does lsusb give you? [13:36] Neepu: is the device listed?

[13:37] Neepu: Yea [13:37] Neepu: So the device is still listed, but not functional [13:38] I did enable backports. I'll have a look at this later. I need to go for now. Thanks and bye. [13:38] If thats the case, i'm having trouble to answer that. Due to my keyboard and mouse not working, would have to get SSH up and running..

[13:40] bluetooth support in this OS has always been horrendous [13:40] !dmesg | Neepu [13:40] Neepu: dmesg is a console command which outputs the kernel ring buffer - an important log for diagnosing problems in Linux. Often when something errors with hardware it will result in additional lines reported which can be seen by running dmesg in a console. [13:43] frib well bluetooth is horrendous [13:43] Southern_Gentlem, well what other choice is there in the world [13:43] if it works sometimes it can work all of the time [13:43] logically [13:44] hello there [13:44] Southern_Gentlem: I haven't had any problems with my Bluetooth? I use bluetooth headphones over here. [13:44] one release it works the next it breaks then it works again but you have to google for 8 hours to find the correct work around, then it breaks again [13:44] I'd like to know why the netboot on ubuntu 16.04 changed my naming interface to eno1 and when the system is up it changed again to em1?! [13:44] frib, because things change especilly software [13:45] hmm ... I installed lubuntu-desktop and login work perfectly now ... [13:45] I guess I'll start with a fresh install and go with LXDE from the start :) [13:46] Southern_Gentlem, this morning bluetooth was working fine, then firefox did an upgrade -- the only thing i can think of -- and now youtube won't stream [13:46] !pm | neeps [13:46] neeps: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice.

[13:48] ubuntuzuzu: em1 or en1? [13:48] blackflow: during netboot it's eno1 and after reboot it's em1 [13:48] using grub2uefi [13:48] CrazySane, intel N-2230 [13:49] I'm in a hackathon. My dev machine has gotten wonked and I need help getting back to sanity. Someone on #postgres suggested I follow these instructions. I want to undo them. Can anyone help? http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt [13:49] I basically need to remove a repo from the apt sources [13:49] has anybody here used Budgie DE? [13:49] ubuntuzuzu: eno1 is predictable by systemd, but em1 afaik doesn't follow a default naming scheme. Do you have a link override in /etc/systemd/network/... ? [13:49] no any its a fresh install [13:50] frib: are you sure that's not a Wireless Adapter? (Or does that device have bluetooth built in too?) This is what I've found: [13:50] frib: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2089512 [13:50] CrazySane, it has built in [13:50] Hi all. I am trying to install Ubuntu 16 Desktop onto a computer already running Win 7 [13:50] mustmodify, good luck .. hint: ppa-purge [13:51] Does this look like a HW issue? https://pastebin.com/CXpWRPZ9 related to my previous question about USB devices not being responsive [13:51] I was told by the internets to make resize partyitions in Windows, so that I have a area unallocated at least 20GB [13:51] CrazySane, https://ark.intel.com/products/66889/Intel-Centrino-Wireless-N-2230-Single-Band [13:51] blackflow: em1 followed a naming scheme under ubuntu 14.04 ..? [13:51] wildpenguin, / crazytux, when 17.04 comes out .. untill then, #ubuntu+1 you know the drill [13:51] I did that, and am now trying to install Ubuntu alongside Windows, but it says the unallocated space is unusable [13:51] CrazySane, that thread is for the adapter not working? my adapter works. and bluetooth also worked fine until this morning [13:52] neeps: That looks fishy to me. Do you have another keyboard on hand to test for hardware failure? [13:53] Some further seacrhing shows that the issue is becaause Win7 makes 4 partitions and that is the limit, but what is the workaround? [13:53] ubuntuzuzu: btw, where are you looking up that name? what does "ip link show" say? can you pastebin? [13:53] Or is it not possible to dual install Windows and Ubuntu [13:53] frib: I'm just pointing out that this hardware has had issues in the past. [13:53] ubuntuzuzu: no, em1 is not a valid udev network interface name scheme [13:53] not really CrazySane [13:54] ubuntuzuzu: in 14.04, wihtout systemd, it was the usual ethX. with systemd, the naming scheme follows a predictable scheme ruleset, where en* are ethernet devices [13:54] EriC^^, I got as far as getting the script (http://paste.ubuntu.com/24288033/) to run with sudo without a password, but I get a permission denied error still. Do you have any ideas why that's possible? [13:54] neeps: my Google results tell me differently. Many people seem to have had issues with this particular hardware. [13:55] CrazySane, well all I Can say is I've been using it for years and after googling for hours, sometimes days, I always managed to make it work somehow [13:55] so apparently the hardware works [13:55] /home/patrick/.local/bin/su.d/screenbool.sh: line 4: /sys/class/backlight/radeon_bl0/brightness: Permission denied [13:55] blackflow: ubuntu 16 : em1 renamed from eth0Â, where des it come from?

Should it be something like "if echo ..." [13:57] semitones: if [ "$(cat /sys/class/backlight/radeon_bl0/brightness)" == "0" ]; then true; [13:57] samgoody: if ubuntu already uses 4 primary partitions, there is no way you can make a 5th one. that doesnt work on msdos partitiontable [13:57] blackflow: [13:57] http://fr.pastebin.ca/3789357 [13:58] There are four partitions listed asid from unusable [13:58] sda1 - sda4 [13:59] I followed the instructions on that page, but got stuck at the install ubuntu part. Because of the number of partitions, presumably. [13:59] ubuntuzuzu: did you upgrade to 16.04, or install fresh? [13:59] samgoody: yes, some preinstalled windows do already use 4 partitions. because they dont care if the user wants to install another OS [13:59] samgoody, so .. remove 1, make that space extended, and you can create new logical partitions in that [13:59] I read that there is something called logical partitions that I could setup, but it is beyond my experience [14:00] EriC^^, i feel very lucky that I didn't irrecoverably set the screen to zero with that = instead of == [14:00] Will removing 1 do in my install of Windows? [14:00] ubuntuzuzu: and a better question, is that some kind of VM? [14:00] samgoody: there is no way around the fact, that you need to delete one partition before you can make a extended partition and put the logical partitions for ubunut into that [14:00] I'm trying to install Ubuntu [14:00] OK, and that should be done from within Windows? [14:00] semitones: if you want, there's xbacklight which can control the backlight [14:00] samgoody: that means you need to get rid of the recovery partition or what else is installed on that disk [14:00] blackflow: that's physical system [14:01] ubuntuzuzu: fresh install via netboot [14:01] semitones: you can set it to a keyboard shortcut [14:01] * k1l_ needs to go afk. [14:01] Ubiquity is being uncooperative.

(I'm learning so much about bash scripting though!) [14:02] (or am I? :P) [14:03] man i'm not a lier [14:03] ? [14:03] semitones: nah you are, bash scripting is fun and to the point and handy [14:03] http://fr.pastebin.ca/3789358 [14:03] Given it's just supposed to have mkfs'd said partition itself I have no idea why it would fail to mount it [14:04] semitones: you can set it to 0 with xbacklight -set 0 [14:04] semitones: you can probably write a script around that so it's like an on/off switch, just like you were doing, the nice part is that it doesn't need sudo for xbacklight [14:05] ubuntuzuzu: well, sorry, I have no idea why you have em1 instead of, say, enpX, if that really is Ubuntu 16.04. em1 was mapping from before systemd, and it's possible the mapping was kept if you upgraded, but as you say you installed fresh, sorry, no idea.

Ubuntu didn't manufacture the hardware. [14:27] it worked fine on the setup usb stick though [14:28] tomasm-: hmm, thats weird [14:28] Q: 2017: Mega vs pCloud vs Copy vs BitCasa vs Dropbox ? [14:28] CrazySane, actually this time it worked with a fresh Ubuntu desktop install [14:28] but waited until this morning to break out of the blue [14:28] tomasm-: can you try different kernel versions on your wifi? [14:29] tomasm-: just as a test [14:29] also, if making a card work is a matter of e.g. simply runnning a 1-line command -- i don't see why it can't be supported more easily [14:29] Scoop7, such poll is beyond the scope of this channel [14:29] lotuspsychje, no idea how to do that [14:29] tomasm-: load into grub, and choose previous ubuntu version, choose a lower kernel as test [14:29] OerHeks: mm, why - they all support ubuntu OS (well dropbox does it poorly ...) [14:30] lotuspsychje, this is a fresh install i dont think there are other options [14:30] tomasm-: ah kk [14:30] !info linux-image-generic | tomasm- [14:30] tomasm-: linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image.

I'm trying to forward my rsyslogd logs to another server. this part already works, but now I want to filter out the logs comming from haproxy, cause it's way too much log. I can't figure out how I can, I bet it has to do with my *.* @@mydomain:514;Format, but I cant figure out how I should tweak it. Any help over here ? [14:46] EriC^^, a-ha It works! thanks for your help :) [14:46] semitones: great, no problem :) [14:46] a [14:47] this is weird [14:47] im sorry wrong channel ;) [14:47] oh well i'll deal with it later, i can go back to a network i've already been on but cant add a new network [14:49] question on ssh [14:50] is the config file for ssh? is it sshd_config or ssh_config? I see it as ssh_config. Am I missing something else? [14:51] harushimo: ssh_config is for the client side and sshd_config for the sshd server side [14:51] thank you [14:51] i'm guessing I don't have the daemon installed. I have ssh [14:51] harushimo: you can also use ~/.ssh/config for client side configs specific to the user [14:51] I figured that much. Thank yo so much [14:52] I appreciate the clarification [14:52] harushimo: the deamon is part of openssh-server package [14:53] (ot quip: FerengiLinux, where daemons are called daimons) [14:53] my bluetooth audio device spontaneously stopped working as of this morning. please offer troubleshooting advice, thank you, sincerely [14:54] frib: ubuntu version, stopped working after update? [14:55] frib: are you using blueman also? [14:55] lotuspsychje, 16.04.2 LTS [14:55] lotuspsychje, i was not until 5 minutes ago when I tried to install it hoping it would fix the problem [14:55] (it didn't) [14:56] frib: can you test another kernel version as test? [14:56] lotuspsychje, as for it happening "after update" the only update I'm aware of being done since this morning was a firefox update [14:56] lotuspsychje, as in go to grub menu select a diff kernel? [14:56] frib: indeed, and a small ubuntu base update [14:56] frib: yeah, could you try? [14:56] lotuspsychje, can you remind me how to make grub menu appear? [14:56] some file hidden option [14:56] frib: hold shift at boot [14:57] lotuspsychje, that never works [14:57] Hi Everyone [14:57] Im uber noob... First time [14:57] i need the grub options file with the TIMEOUT etc options [14:58] Jackal08: welcome, how can we help you? [14:58] Busy doing the official Linux Foundation intro course. Found this app. Testing it out. Is there maybe a list of topics and networks available somewhere? [14:59] lotuspsychje, found it /etc/default/grub [14:59] lotuspsychje, will try another kernel now [15:00] Jackal08: what app are you referring to? Do you mean an IRC client? [15:00] !alis | Jackal08 [15:00] Jackal08: Alis is an IRC service to help you find channels. For help on using it, see "/msg Alis help list" or ask in #freenode. Example usage: "/msg Alis list http" [15:00] So I am using HexChat? [15:00] Jackal08: for lists of networks -- there are many [15:00] Jackal08: ok, that's an IRC client [15:00] So it appears cron @reboot jobs don't run as the user [15:01] How can I best mount using sshfs and start a ssh tunnel on startup? [15:02] Tatou: if they are in the user's crontab, i thinkthey should [15:02] nacc: Does not appear to! [15:02] Tatou: static mount in /etc/fstab, or perhaps use something like autofs. I think systemd units can do automounts as well, not sure [15:03] Tatou: how did you add the cronjob? [15:03] nacc: @reboot sh ~/git/personal_linux_environment/scripts/mount-feral-completed.sh [15:03] Here is an example. From the user's crontab [15:04] lotuspsychje, changed to kernel 4.8.0-45 to 4.8.0-44 and problem persists [15:04] Tatou: @reboot is when crond starts, which might be before /home is mounted [15:04] Tatou: per the manpage [15:04] nacc: Yes.. Is there an alternative? === Luke_ is now known as Guest15487 [15:06] nacc: Ideally, I'd love to be able to do all this through scripting.. But I just need the ssh tunnel and the sshfs mounted [15:07] can upgrading the kernel solve the issue of random freezes? [15:08] Tatou: looking [15:08] wildpenguin: sometimes, if the freeze aren't random but have been root-caused and fixed [15:08] I have this kernel version 4.8.0-44-generic [15:08] nacc: I see.. ~/.profile is the way to go apparently! I'll try that :) [15:08] frib: not sure mate, out of ideas, perhaps look into your logs? [15:08] lotuspsychje, for example? [15:08] Tatou: there is a GUI -> start scripts on login [15:09] frib: anything related to bluetooth error can help right [15:09] Tatou: err, system -> preferences -> startup applications [15:09] nacc: I've seen that, but meh.. gui.. It's a pain to source control that stuff [15:09] frib: or a tail -f /var/log/syslog and fool around with bluetooth a bit [15:09] sometimes the os stops responding completely.

[15:14] wildpenguin: yea [15:14] nacc, I am using 16.04.2 [15:14] I'm sure you've all seen this in here a time or two, but from all the posts I've read and tried I can't figure it out... I log into my computer either the sound will be active and work perfectly for about 2 minutes 30 seconds, then it immediately kills and I can't hear it anymore. Sometimes it seems if I "alsa force-reload" immediately upon log in and not run any sound until everything fully loads it'll work fine. Sometimes I've got to keep [15:14] restarting and the sounds still cuts off or doesn't work at all upon login. I've gone over this article ---> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure - removing the .config/pulse folder, restarting and getting back into Unity it seemed that that had worked until I logged back in after restarting the machine to run the new kernel from the update yesterday... Sorry about being so verbose I'm just really frsutrated [15:14] wildpenguin: if you did just "upgrade", then the package manager would warn you there's (kernel) upgrades it's omitting [15:14] wildpenguin: right, so use `apt` [15:15] ok [15:15] Is it possible to check for Luks encryption programatically ? [15:15] lotuspsychje, what should I do now? [15:15] macopython: check what exactly?

[15:27] for god's sake it was working this morning ... [15:27] frib: you sure your on latest right? make sure with sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [15:27] lotuspsychje, i just did a fresh install with the ubuntu iso 2 days ago max [15:27] because i accidentally deleted my EFI partition and didn't know how to restore it [15:27] frib: alot of updates can happen in 2 days [15:27] lotuspsychje, ... [15:28] even before reinstalling my bt was working "fine" [15:28] I am looking at this link, yet I can't figure out what would the *next* network card in an Ubuntu server be named. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/src/udev/udev-builtin-net_id.c#L20 [15:28] frib: ok here's a new idea, test your blutooth in a liveusb 16.04.2 [15:28] lotuspsychje, i'm going to try this ppa first.. [15:28] no? [15:28] This first is enp0s3 .... would the next card be enp0s4 ??? [15:28] frib: its your machine, you can do what you like [15:28] lotuspsychje, which means? [15:29] the ppa could create problems? [15:29] ?? [15:29] frib: means your choice [15:29] oh [15:29] well if it's worth a shot I will try it [15:29] this guy says it worked for him [15:29] tsglove: it depends on the physical topology [15:29] frib: indeed [15:29] nacc, this ubuntu server is a VM inside VirtualBox... [15:29] I am not sure... what or how [15:29] tsglove: enp0s3 means bus 0 slot 3; enp0s4 would be bus 0 slot 4 [15:30] lotuspsychje, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1608820/comments/7 [15:30] Launchpad bug 1574324 in pulseaudio (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1608820 pulseaudio crashes when connecting to bluetooth headphones (due to ubuntu changes?)" [High,Fix released] [15:30] tsglove: right, so you control exactly what the 'physical' topology your VM sess is [15:30] he says "use my version of pulse" [15:30] *sees [15:30] that means?? sudo apt remove pulse? [15:30] remove and reinstall "pulseaudio" pkg? [15:31] nacc... I... I am at a loss. How... or... how? [15:31] I mean [15:31] I just want that second network card to connect [15:32] tsglove: don't do anything and it will by default, presuming it's configured correctly in the host [15:32] tsglove: you have not actually said anything that is an issue, afaict [15:32] how can I install pulseaudio from a ppa I just added instead of the official one? [15:32] tsglove: you pointed to a link into source (rather than the documentation of the feature?)... [15:33] Well, in VirtualBox, I added the additional network card, and the server doesn't load it. [15:33] frib: if the ppa's version is later than the release version, it will automatically on `apt update; apt upgrade`. If not use `apt policy pulseaudio` and specify the version to install with `apt install pulseaudio=` [15:33] tsglove: does your server show multiple network cards? [15:34] no... only one if I run ifconfig [15:34] yet in virtualbox, I have added two [15:34] tsglove: e.g. in `ip a` [15:34] tsglove: what? if ifconfig shows it then your server *does* show multiple network cards... [15:34] nacc, i don't know if the ppa's version is later or how to find out [15:34] tsglove: oh "only one", sorry misread [15:34] nacc, ip a does show two cards [15:34] frib: read the rest of what i wrote... [15:34] tsglove: so probably you haven't configured it properly [15:34] tsglove: are you using /etc/network/interfaces [15:35] tsglove: ? [15:35] nacc i need to install this one 1:8.0-0ubuntu3.1~xenial9 500 [15:36] so apt install pulseaudio=? [15:36] yes... just modified /etc/network/interfaces nacc [15:36] rebooting now [15:36] nacc, now it comes up in ifconfig [15:36] tsglove: right. [15:36] thank you!! I am going to read man ip to learn what it is. [15:36] tsglove: nothing to do with naming [15:36] frib: yeah, with that version in there [15:37] nacc, the whole 1:8.0...xenial9 ? [15:37] frib: yes [15:38] nacc, it won't do it because it says i have requested an impossible situation [15:38] frib: sometimes possible with PPAs that aren't maintained [15:38] nacc, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24288487/ [15:39] frib: you will need to add libpulse0 to be from the same ppa (probably the same version) [15:39] frib: and maybe pulseaudio-module-x11 from the same ppa [15:39] nacc, is it wrong that it says "but 1:8.0-0ubuntu3.2 is to be installed" ? [15:39] when i intended 3.1 [15:39] frib: no, read the output [15:39] frib: apt doens't know you want to use the ppa [15:40] frib: it onl knows what you told it [15:40] nacc, i specified the version in the ppa though [15:40] frib: no [15:40] frib: you specified *one* package's version [15:40] frib: apt always prefers the latest version it can find, unless the package has different deps [15:40] nacc, sorry I'm confused. i thought that was the whole point of specifying an earlier version [15:41] frib, you have purge your current pulseaudio and pulseaudio utils in oder to use the ppa version, dur to conflicting configs etc [15:41] frib: yes, for *one* pacakge [15:41] hmm what i find weird, this bug is from 2016, says fix released and still persist on his system [15:41] frib: but you have to specify the version for dependencies too [15:41] doesnt make sense [15:41] lotuspsychje: true, does say fix releaseed in xenial [15:41] BluesKaj, ok so I tried that and it still doesn't install [15:42] i will try installing the libpulse0 from the ppa [15:43] frib: which PPA are you using? [15:43] nacc, it's called "themuso" [15:44] hello? [15:44] nacc, i installed libpulse0, pulseaudio still wouldn't install, said I need pulseaudio-module-x11 so i tried to instal that from the same ppa, but wouldn't install [15:44] saying i needed libpulse0 and pulseaudio as depends =S!

[15:51] rbansal1: i believe you can tell dhcpd what interface to liste on [15:51] It is listening on eth0 interface. [15:51] rbansal1: if it throws an error ... it's not running [15:51] nacc, ok i think i understand, i will try [15:51] happy Friday everyone [15:52] or $EndOfWorkWeekDay for those of you in timezones were it's not Friday [15:52] new terminal window: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24288523/ .bashrc: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24288519/ suspect line 111. What's causing the alias errors? [15:53] rbansal1: yes. don't worry about configuring the interface, configure the subnet. it will figure out where to serve it. [15:53] Azulflame: missing trailing ' on line 106 [15:53] Azulflame: pretty obvious with the syntax highlighting... [15:54] Azulflame: also line 106 is gibberish :) [15:54] rbansal1, if yopu're on systemd the ethernet name is no longer eth0 , run ip adr to see the new assigned name [15:54] rbansal1: if you're using isc-dhcpd that is. that's what i use and i have it serving multiple aliases on my nic. [15:54] rbansal1, ip addr [15:54] I"m doing it in Nano, so no highlighting for me [15:54] trying to start `syslog-ng`, and getting "Execution of '/etc/init.d/syslog-ng start' returned 1: * Starting system logging syslog-ng" [15:54] Azulflame: you just pasted it [15:54] Azulflame: and the paste has highlighting...

[16:06] is there something on the touchpad? Your palm, perhaps? or is the touchpad stuck? [16:06] frib: i would purge the ppa, as i said, i don't think it would fix it [16:06] I can literally keep one finger on my right hand on the touchpad and touch somewhere else on the touchpad and it'll scroll the page [16:06] !ppa-purge | frib [16:06] barring those, it's likely a driver issue [16:06] frib: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [16:07] @Azulflame it's all been taken apart, cleaned, works fine if I don't touch when I click.

Or how would I check what version is the "current version" of the ubuntu package for 14.04 - doing apt-get upgrade php simply updates the same old PHP version. [17:18] culthero, in 16.04 it is .. with the transit to systemd [17:19] you *might* want to use the ondrej ppa on 14.04, but i would step up [17:19] OerHeks, it is probably faster to only update php / bindings then update 14.04 right? [17:19] 14 to 16 rather [17:19] yes, but with the ppa you are on your own [17:20] *scratches chin* [17:20] culthero: ubuntu doesnt change base versions once after the ubuntu release [17:20] there are pros and cons .. [17:20] culthero: ubuntu 16.04 comes with php7. an will stay on that for the support timeframe. [17:21] I understand [17:21] my worry is [17:21] "Warning: As with almost any upgrade between major releases of an operating system, this process carries an inherent risk of failure, data loss, or broken software configuration. Comprehensive backups and extensive testing are strongly advised." [17:21] I have a server which I only partially configured; containing ssl configuration, postfix setup, some apache directives, so just running the upgrade would be dangerous imho [17:21] culthero, 16.04 is beyond 16.04.1 ... so it is tested. [17:22] culthero: we cant know if your code runs with php7 [17:22] it does [17:22] code is tested [17:22] idk if the configuration will move over seamlessly [17:22] or will take hours to manage [17:22] which means spinning up another vps, doing a DNS switch [17:22] rather then having any sort of downtime [17:23] you could test your setup before in a vm [17:23] you might want to read the changes first.. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes [17:23] helo [17:23] or test the upgrade [17:23] vm, +1 [17:23] sou do brazil [17:23] oh so create a snapshot of my AWS image, spin up a VM somewhere with that image, then do the upgrade to see how it goes [17:23] but the updates and the upgrades do get automated testings. so the pacakges do support the upgrade to 16.04.

[17:24] ok that's great, thanks you guys [17:25] still have to have some downtime to create the image :) [17:27] greeting ubunthian fellows ! I have a network problem. I took the HDD of a damaged machine to another PC. booted, up, everything seems to be fine, all loading drivers shows "OK", except for the network card which is not working. tried several stuff, editing 70-persistent-net.rules didn't changed the situation, lshw -C network shows the network card with *-network DISABLED [17:27] culthero: that wouldn't be necessary if you were using LVM [17:30] culthero: on a different topic: if you are looking to develop more professionally, you could have development, staging and live environments, where at least the last two are configured identically (except for system specific configuration slike hostname / ip adresses etc.). [17:31] that way you can test such transitions safely before you run them on the live site. [17:32] tomreyn: I have 4 environments configured similarly (not entirely identically now, because of some recent changes). I attempted the update to php7 on a throwaway dev environment for a test run and it was poor, took troubleshooting to resolve some of the problems (like missing PHP modules, etc) [17:32] (and, with snapshotting, rollback quickly for a new try / extra life ;) ) [17:32] I am reading up on LVM - if LVM isn't configured following the article (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lvm) would probably be OK yeah? [17:33] you really want to configure LVM at OS install time [17:33] neat. [17:33] most of the time [17:33] unless you have unpartitioned space, then that works, too [17:33] so my best bet is to do a run on a VM of a snapshot of the live site [17:33] or you cuold shrink existing partitions etc. [17:34] This is on AWS, I can attach a new volume that's much much bigger [17:34] oh, upgrading on aws .. you would need a new image they provide.. [17:35] stock ubuntu doesn't work there? [17:35] i never used aws much, so wouldnt know [17:37] anyone here use syslog/syslog-ng?

I have a network problem. I took the HDD of a damaged machine to another PC. booted, up, everything seems to be fine, all loading drivers shows "OK", except for the network card which is not working. tried several stuff, editing 70-persistent-net.rules didn't changed the situation, lshw -C network shows the network card with *-network DISABLED [17:44] StumpDumb: "doesn't work?? ? [17:44] yep...I can write to it with SUDO CP and read it fine [17:44] parapan: Identical hardware between the old and new machines? [17:45] I believe I' affected by this.

[17:48] I shall post...one min [17:48] CrazySane: pls excuse, I've got disconnected; the hardware are different; in respect of the network, old one was a realtek chipset this now is an Intel [17:50] ? [17:50] why is this not logging to /var/log/prometheus/server.log https://gist.github.com/anonymous/26ab732ff3970ad095c8aef79b2cec75 when i run with sudo -H -u prometheus bash -c "..." it does [17:51] hashpuppy: does it output anything if you run the same ExecStart manually? [17:52] parapan_: can you pastebin sudo lshw -c network [17:52] https://pastebin.com/Zkyr8DqS [17:52] yes [17:52] StumpDumb: that partition is still set as iso9660 - a readonly image. [17:53] hashpuppy: and it writes to /var/log/prometheus/server.log then ? maybe that file is owned by root but the service user it runs as now does not have permission to write to it? [17:53] !fdisk | StumpDumb [17:53] Damn [17:53] CrazySane: not quite ..it will mean to type all manually ; but tell me what exactly do you need to have ? It gives me all characteristics of the network card (it's an onboard one) ...including hddwr address, speed, all details . and the fist line is *-network DISABLED [17:54] Does anyone here know why the facebook plugin isn't included in the Pidgin or Purple packages? [17:54] parapan_: huh? [17:54] naac, https://bpaste.net/show/25bd31d3ad1b [17:54] CrazySane: what's the huh for ? [17:55] parapan_: I didn't understand what you just said [17:55] must install...one moment [17:55] Would you please pastebin it. [17:55] mark76, uh, as far as i know, Facebook messenger stopped being XMPP-compatible a rather long time ago [17:56] Yes, and then someone wrote a new plugin that's compatible with the new api? Did none of you know that? [17:56] !pastebinit | parapan_ [17:56] parapan_: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [17:56] not sure how to use lfdisk [17:57] CrazySane: that particular command gives me all details of the network card. is it a specific info you need to know ? because to give you the full output I'll have to write-it by hand .....I cannot copy it from that other machine . . . [17:57] mark76, assuming that "none" of the people here knew about that just because i appear not to sounds like flawed logic. [17:57] parapan_: ah. So the other machine is offline. gotcha [17:57] parapan_: that makes sense, we're talking about a network card here. [17:57] jeffreylevesque_: can you get the output of tying to start syslog-ng? it would be in `journalctl -xn`, or you can run it by hand probably [17:58] CrazySane: is started but without the network . . .. . :D [17:58] CrazySane: that why I asked if you want a specific detail so I can read it on the monitor :D [17:59] parapan_: I'm fishing at the moment, perhaps someone else here will have something to start with? [17:59] mark76, anyway it wouldn't be included in libpurple itself because it's a separate project, so unless the developers somehow agree to merge it, it cannot be part of Pidgin/Purple. it could still be provided as its own package, but it just isn't (except in PPA), i guess someone could volunteer for packaging it properly [18:00] naac, https://bpaste.net/show/dd9397389de3 [18:00] CrazySane: problem is: I know the card is there, yellow LED is active (continuous, not blinking) but It may be I have no driver for it . . . [18:01] CrazySane: maybe if I start with a bootable drive ? can I check something ? if the network still not available ....maybe it's a driver issue ? [18:01] parapan_: It sounds like your system sees that it exists - if it were a broadcom device, I'd say it's thirdparty driver issues. (need to accept a license there, if I remember correctly.) [18:02] parapan_: You said it was an Intel device? [18:02] Hi. My (K)Ubuntu fails to establish a wired network connection after uprading to 16.10. Only after booting to recovery, activating network and then resuming normal boot I can have a connection [18:02] First at least wireless was working, but then i tried to remove and reinstall network-manager [18:02] llo [18:02] CrazySane: it was a realtek and now it's an Intel; it gives me a number also ... [18:02] hello [18:03] parapan_: Can you cat /etc/network/interfaces and tell me if that device is listed? [18:03] who mine? [18:03] parapan_: The logical name from the lshw command should be listed there. [18:04] So how is everyone [18:04] * CrazySane afk for a moment [18:05] All I keep getting is a permission denied? [18:05] CrazySane: in interfaces I have defined l0 and eth0' both on auto mode; when ifconfig - only l0 shows up with 127.0.0.1 address; network is 82566DM-2 gigabit network connection , vendor Intel Corporation [18:06] parapan_: is the Logical Name from lshw eth0? or eth1? [18:06] CrazySane: logical name is enp0s25 [18:07] StumpDumb: you likely need to add 'sudo' in front of what ever you're entering. [18:07] CrazySane: that could be an issue :D [18:07] yep [18:08] parapan_: edit /etc/network/interfaces and change eth0 to enp0s25 [18:08] parapan_: then reboot (you could just restart services, but rebooting is simpler). [18:08] CrazySane: so I have an eth0 defined as a network device in 70-persistent-net.rules but my logical name now is not eth0 but enp0s25 ..correct ? [18:09] parapan_: That's seems to be the case. enp0s25 follows the new naming convention. [18:09] parapan_: gone are the days of eth0. XD [18:09] parapan_: confused the crap out of me at first too. [18:10] Why on earth did they change it, after years of eth [18:10] whyyyyyyyyyyy!1!1!! [18:10] lol [18:10] CrazySane: :D I bet it will . .. but ....I'm intrigued ....never mind ..I'll come up with this second question later .....let's rename things in the proper files and I'll get back asap OK ? [18:10] parapan_: It's my understanding that it's to make the names more persistent rather than arbitrarily generated in order of enumeration. [18:10] rogier: ^^ [18:11] parapan_: Good luck! [18:13] Okay seems to work Great now...Thanks!...Bye bye [18:13] StumpDumb: Glad you're all set! Thanks for coming! [18:14] Can someone add the new Facebook plugin to the Ubuntu Pidgin package? [18:15] So anyone lost his network interface when upgrading to 16.10? [18:15] nmcli says "not managed" [18:15] six86: Lost how? [18:15] six86: Can you pastebin cat /etc/network/interfaces [18:16] CrazySane: nope..when rebooting I have a FAILED message during boot ...could not Raise network something .....I've changed to enp0s25 in 70-persistent-net.rules file also under the name label ... [18:16] CrazySane: hard wthout network, but theres just the loopback in there [18:17] CrazySane: ifconfig shows againg only l0 [18:17] parapan_: did you change the logical name in /etc/network/interfaces ? [18:17] I can get a DHCP assigned address when starting i recovery, activating network and the resume boot [18:17] I have a lenovo ideapad 100s 11 lby and it blocks with linux what to do? [18:17] mark76, you could do a request to the pidgin team, https://launchpad.net/pidgin [18:17] CrazySane: yes, from eth0 to enp0s25 .... [18:17] six86: Does this anwer help you: https://askubuntu.com/questions/71159/network-manager-says-device-not-managed [18:18] systemd... oh my... [18:18] jeffreylevesque_: oh 14.04? [18:18] yes sir [18:18] jeffreylevesque_: hrm, `sudo service status syslog-ng` maybe [18:19] jeffreylevesque_: i think it's just a wrapper around /etc/init.d/syslog-ng, so you could also try `sudo bash -x /etc/init.d/syslog-ng start` [18:19] CrazySane: nope, already tried, and as I said, there is just the loopback there [18:19] CrazySane: USB wifi is working, but not the cable connection [18:20] parapan_: what does the entire line for enp0s25 say? [18:20] parapan_: in /etc/network/interfaces [18:20] "sudo nmcli dev" knows eth0 but "not managed" [18:21] * CrazySane has to go afk for a bit. (sorry) [18:23] I have a lenovo ideapad 100s 11 lby and it blocks with linux what to do? [18:23] CrazySane: auto enp0s25 / sorry ...I'm stupid .....be back in a sec ... [18:23] Lavinho: what do you mean it blocks with linux? [18:23] Hello...I'm back, the USB drive has it's permissions set as 'read only' of other users. How do I change the permissions to read and write for all? [18:24] the system [18:24] Lavinho: I have no idea what you mean. [18:25] support only uefi [18:25] Ubuntu supports uefi [18:25] Lavinho: is English your first language? [18:25] no [18:25] CrazySane: solved it... [18:25] what is? there are channels for many languages, and I'm having trouble understanding your English. [18:26] CrazySane: Bug #1658921 and #1638842 [18:26] bug 1658921 in network-manager (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1638842 NetworkManager does not manage wired connection" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1658921 [18:26] bug 1658921 in network-manager (Ubuntu) "NetworkManager does not manage wired connection" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1658921 [18:27] CrazySane: bingo I was so stupid that I had both eth0 and the enp0s25 on the same definition; ifconfig now shows the enp0s25 ...got an IP address from the server and second LED is blinking .... [18:29] parapan: crazysane is afk [18:29] CrazySane: thanks and well done mate !! :D [18:30] CrazySane: on my behalf I must say that I was confused about that logical name issue - also due to the fact that I've updated from 14.04 to 16.04 and probably the system kept the same settings with eth0 [18:35] back. Sorry, paid job needed my attention. parapan_ glad it's working! :) [18:35] a quick question, does root account have a default password after a fresh install? [18:35] harushimo: no [18:35] !sudo | harushimo [18:35] harushimo: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli).

If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo [18:35] anyone know why ubuntu only uses /lib/systemd/system for installed services instead of /usr/lib/systemd/system? [18:35] harushimo: no. the first created user has sudo permissions [18:35] harushimo: no [18:36] okay..thanks everyone. I'm just double checking my understanding [18:36] Luke: shouldnt that be /etc/systemd/system [18:36] hi [18:36] mutante: /etc/ is where enabled services are symlinked [18:36] Luke: it uses /usr/local/lib/systemd/system as well [18:36] Luke: per `man systemd` [18:36] oh, so you dont put unit files directly in /etc? ok [18:36] nacc: it does but the user has to create that folder. the systemd package in ubuntu doesn't actually create it [18:36] six86: so you're all set now too? [18:37] Luke: well, the administrator shoud, not the user [18:37] nacc: the man pages are systemd specific not ubuntu specific. this seems to be an ubuntu thing [18:37] CrazySane: yep, seems to be a bug, now eversthing works again [18:37] Luke: i have no idea what that last comment means [18:37] Luke: also, i think /usr/lib/systemd/user works (again per manpages0 [18:37] nacc: ubuntu does not by default create or put anything into /usr/lib/systemd/system even though the systemd man pages talk about it [18:38] Luke: so? === hxegon_afk is now known as hxegon [18:38] nacc: why is that? [18:38] Luke: what manpage refers to that? [18:39] nacc: here are the official systemd docs: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html [18:39] Luke: the ubuntu manpages [18:39] nacc: see how it has "/usr/lib/systemd/system/*" in there? [18:39] Luke: which do not [18:39] nacc: then look at the ubuntu man pages and it has "/lib/systemd/system/*" [18:39] Luke: upstream manpges are irrelevant to distributions [18:40] 1 [18:40] Luke: well, in practice they are highly relevant as the basis, but i mean you can't read an upstream manpage and assume it's correct for every distribution [18:40] nacc: my question is why is it different in ubuntu. is /usr/lib/systemd/system not intended to be used in ubuntu? [18:40] Having a Mosh problem. When I do the mosh me@whateverip it just exits immediately with no message, any advice? [18:40] Luke: probably because it's different in Debian? [18:41] Luke: and yes, you should use the distribution's manpage [18:41] nacc: i know dude...

Version 1.2.6-1build1 (yakkety), package size 209 kB, installed size 832 kB [18:41] nacc: you're missing my question (or you just don't know the answer) [18:41] Luke: you want to know why this was changed? [18:41] nacc: i know they are different. that's the premise of my question [18:41] nacc: yeah [18:41] Luke: this is not the right channel for that question, look in the debian/changelog maybe? [18:42] nacc: I didn't know it was the same as system or ubuntu in debian [18:42] Luke: what? [18:42] nacc: all I know is that it's dfiferent in ubuntu than upstream [18:42] nacc: I haven't looked at debian at all [18:43] nacc: yeah you're right it's from debian [18:43] nacc: https://manpages.debian.org/jessie/systemd/systemd.unit.5.en.html [18:43] hxegon: does it happen connecting to all hosts, or just one host? [18:44] nacc: thanks [18:44] CrazySane: I only have one host to try it out on [18:45] Luke: its manually changed in d/rules in the source package [18:46] OK well this has helped me sort out where I should be putting things [18:46] Hi all, I've configured an ssh server on a ubuntu 16.04 laptop. Ive succesfully configured key authentication. It works from another linux box, but Ive tried every single tutorial online to make it work from widnows and it always says the server refused our key [18:47] Infiltrat0r: are you using puttykeygen? [18:47] Infiltrat0r: with PuTTY? [18:47] Infiltrat0r: What windows client? [18:47] (putty should work just fine) [18:47] Ive generated the windows key from puttyGen, and trying to connect with putty (from windows) [18:48] CrazySane: thanks again ! [18:48] How can i tell what SSL certificate my site is using (Apache), It’s not in the .conf file as far as I can tell. It expires shortly and I”m struggling to replace it [18:48] Infiltrat0r: you need the key in the Key: box. you have to copy and select all the text and paste that one [18:48] parapan_: No problem! [18:48] Infiltrat0r: don't use the .pub file. wrong format [18:48] sudo won't accept my root password [18:48] mark76: there is no root password by default [18:48] mark76: it's asking for YOUR password, not the password for root [18:48] Infiltrat0r: it says "public key for pasting into openssh authorized_keys file:" [18:48] scottjl, Ive put the output in authorized_keys in a single line [18:48] mark76: sudo uses your user's password [18:49] Sudo won't accept my user's password [18:49] !sudo | mark76 [18:49] mark76: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli).

If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo [18:49] mark76: its the users password to be used with sudo [18:49] Infiltrat0r: make sure you copy it all. it should start with something like ssh-rsa and end with something like rsa-key-20170301 [18:49] Infiltrat0r: you have to drag through the whole box [18:50] (i see this all the time with my end-users who don't copy the whole key) [18:52] phos1: you likely ought to ask an Apache channel.

I've never used that client, and I can't find anything specifically discussing your issue online. [18:55] CrazySane: I made a bit of progress, seems It's because I'm using bash on ubuntu on windows, so probably not appropriate for this chan. Thanks for the effort though CrazySane [18:56] Infiltrat0r: then try copying and pasting again? it does work, i can assure you of that. but if you're missing one character or an extra return it will fail [18:56] hi, I am setting up my new linode and I want to have separate partition for /var. Not sure what size is recommended for /var [18:57] heck i'm putty'ed into this linux box to get on this weechat session ;-) [18:58] scottjl, using windows and auth key? [18:58] Infiltrat0r: yep. === lethu_ is now known as lethu [19:01] ^^ PuTTY works fine 100% tested a million times [19:01] (it's a local issue :)) [19:01] yea I know its not putty, but I cant find where I ?&*( up [19:02] :( [19:05] Hi. It's shows "localhost.localdomain" topright of my ubuntu where the login screen. Is that normal? [19:07] angel-swe I don't have a current version, but sounds like that's just your host name.domain name [19:08] my ubuntu works slower than ever [19:11] angel-swe: that's the default system name and domain if you didn't set one. [19:14] slidinghorn, I installed some updates and than it asked for restart. I choose later.. than after a while electricty gone and when I restart it was like this [19:14] can I restore my ubuntu to 1 day before? [19:16] anyone around? [19:16] Hi. It's shows "localhost.localdomain" topright of my ubuntu where the login screen. Is that normal? [19:16] angel_swe: You can restore any OS like that if you have a snapshot of the disk state at the time [19:16] Be that ext4 + LVM, OpenZFS or whatever [19:17] angel_swe: no need!.. [19:17] !ask | angel_swe [19:17] angel_swe: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [19:17] which they did, one line after that [19:17] kgb, but my ubuntu works so slow now [19:17] er.. didn't mean to do that. [19:17] kgb, And it says localhost.localdomain where I login to ubuntu [19:18] you can't just run update again?.. see if it 'fixes' it - because restore can be a pain (it's not 99.9% of the time :)) [19:18] bt still [19:18] no update shows atm [19:18] you ran it and no updates? gah! [19:19] I run the ubuntu software and check updates. nothing [19:19] oh, hm... not even firefox?! :o i can see an update from today [19:19] st-range [19:20] angel_swe: So I have a linux box that I was running updates on, and somebody pulled the plug in the middle of it. (This was a technical school though) So if you pull the plug in the middle of updates, will it damage the OS? [19:20] OSupdates, yes it can [19:20] kgb, http://prnt.sc/eqvu8l [19:21] ^^ bt the updater was *not* running [19:21] depends where the plug got pulled in the downloads or the install [19:21] angel_swe: oh, wow.... [19:22] OSupdates, It doesnt loose energy middle of update progress. It happen after very minutes that update asked me if I want to restart now or later. [19:22] Everything was installed already. Just needed a restart. [19:23] or a shutdown - almost the same thing (nothing runs pre-reboot) [19:23] Why isn't there a working Facebook plugin for Pidgin in the Ubuntu repositories? [19:23] angel_swe: But the thing is, it lost power while updating. I don't want the OS to become corrupted:(( [19:23] mark76: facebook shutdown the support for 3rd party programs [19:23] how do I delete the daily updates? [19:23] OSupdates: it's quite possible that things were lost, just depends what xD [19:24] angel_swe, - did the auto update fill your directory? [19:24] kgb: It was kali linux [19:24] There's a Facebook plugin that works with the current api. [19:25] chull, I donT know what does that mean [19:25] kali is not even ubuntu, OSupdates [19:25] OSupdates: there's not going to be a process which can know if something was half-updated.. so whatever was in the middle when the power went out..:) [19:25] here are listed errors http://prnt.sc/eqvw6r [19:25] OSupdates: do you have an ubuntu issue right now? [19:25] I was doing sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. But I'm sure most of the time, if you do the command again to resume the update, it will pick up where it left off, correct? [19:25] omg. [19:25] scottjl, yea well... I've created a new key, ssh'd into the server, copied the public into auth_key and its still refused by server... I'm really starting to think am retarded... [19:25] oh boy, dustin kirkland made the hackernews wishlist and i posted so many wishes and now my post does not appear... :( i have so many suggestions... and i think it is so cool that he asks via hackernews. [19:26] How can I test what happens if an iscsi target is offline while ubuntu is booting up? Is an iptables rule enough? [19:26] kgb, and there are so many others a long list [19:26] k1l: This happened at a technical school, not on the computer that I am currently using [19:26] angel_swe, it's what is happening over and over again to my husband's ubuntu 16.04. He gets errors saying his boot directory is full, as per today. [19:26] OSupdates: so what is the technical ubuntu issue now? [19:27] chull, it is not full [19:27] angel_swe, yours or his? [19:27] angel_swe, try sudo apt-get --reinstall install signon-ui and reboot [19:27] mark76 the decision to drop support isn't in Ubuntu's court. Pidgin no longer supports their protocol. Apparently purple-facebook my still work, but always beware 3rd party applications [19:27] angel_swe: honestly i don't get it.. the power outage should have nothing to do with the updates - since that dialog had been closed :) [19:27] !ppa [19:27] A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

[19:29] ioria, delete whats in /var/crash after reboot or before? [19:29] b4 [19:29] angel_swe, sudo apt-get --reinstall install signon-ui ; remove /var/crash content and reboot [19:30] k1l: Correct, the computer lost power, but Ubuntu never shut down [19:30] ^ and during dist-upgrade, how crazy is that :DD [19:31] OSupdates: if the hardware lost power, then ubuntu was shutdown [19:31] Is there a way to make Ubiquity installer not complain about the /boot folder being part of a rootfs on an encrypted partition? [19:31] k1l: OK? So ubuntu was shut down correctly, but I'm still worried about OS damage :( === masos is now known as Guest65877 [19:32] OSupdates: hard to tell at what stage it was without knowing if there are issues on reboot [19:33] i think my laptop lost power 100 times and never had any file system issue afterwards.. seems like that was an issue in the past with ext2 but not so much anymore [19:33] k1l: But how does ubuntu shut down correctly if the computer loses power? [19:34] scottjl, still around? [19:34] I restarted [19:34] OSupdates: i never said it was shut down correctly. you made it sound like the ubuntu wasnt turned off but the hardware has no power. [19:34] still same [19:34] mutante: lost+found ftw. xd [19:34] scottjl, the user on my windows box isnt the same as the user Im trying to get into linux... does that matter? [19:35] OSupdates: and again: this is just plain hypothetically without you sitting at that machine. there can be like 1000 possible situations now. [19:35] angel_swe, you still get the crash report ? [19:35] Infiltrat0r: nope :) [19:35] Infiltrat0r: no [19:35] ioria, no [19:35] OSupdates: in best case: the system has no issues at all. [19:36] Infiltrat0r: sorry. was afk. as long as you're trying to log in with the correct user id on the box that you put the key into [19:36] ioria, But it says localhost.localdomain where login screen is [19:36] angel_swe, is that a vm ? [19:36] k1l: I bet kali linux is very fault tolerant [19:36] angel-swe: what does it say when you run "hostname -f" in shell? [19:37] OSupdates: and once again: kali is not ubuntu. so ask their support [19:37] ioria, No but now it works slow like a vm [19:37] OSupdates: kali isn't for general purpose use.. [19:37] angel_swe, fresh install ? [19:37] what would that mean to be fault tolerant? [19:38] mutante: it puts up with your faults [19:38] mutante, linux [19:38] ioria, No I have been using that ubuntu for months [19:38] angel_swe, linux is your fqdn ? [19:38] ioria, mlitiple boot side to windows [19:38] angel-swe: surprising, so i wanted to see if that just displays your hostname on login screen, but apparently not and your hostname is "linux" [19:39] angel-swe: what does it say in terminal for: hostname -f [19:39] angel_swe, your user name in linux ? [19:39] mutante, I typed hostname -f to terminal and linux was the return [19:39] oh sorry! [19:39] kgb, it says linux [19:39] *is [19:39] fqdn ? [19:39] scottjl: sure, but a sentence like "kali is fault-tolerant" as opposed to other Linux distros. I mean, they are all using the same kernel and filesystem [19:39] angel_swe, fully qualified domain name [19:39] mutante: i was making a joke. [19:40] mutante: this is the ubuntu support channel. kali is not the topic in here. === mint is now known as guest20170 [19:40] ioria, this is what it's return when I type hostname -f at terminal [19:40] angel_swe, can you paste /etc/hosts [19:40] scottjl: haha, ok :) [19:40] good evening all [19:40] Can't I just uninstall everything I installed recently? and install them again?

[19:50] angel_swe, if hostname -f gives you 'linux' but hosts gives you 'crabot' something wrong ... how did name your machine in the install ? [19:51] something is seriously screwy there =) [19:51] It should be crobot [19:52] angel_swe, try to comment that line out and reboot [19:52] Do you know what's dumb? Having to open a terminal just so you can open a root terminal [19:52] All these wierd things started right after eneryg lost like 20 minutes later when ubuntu ask me if I want to restart now or later. I choosed later. [19:52] nah, it's needed - depending on the type of modem [19:53] and lots energy like after 20 minutes [19:53] this is now what I got [19:53] it's possible that your session had been previously saved; so, only when the power went out it was a 'real' shutdown (after who knows how long :)) [19:54] So what shall I do? [19:54] reinstall the ubuntu? [19:54] angel_swe, try to comment that line out and reboot [19:54] "comment that line out" [19:54] what do you mean? [19:55] angel_swe, put an '#' in front of 127.0.1.1 crobot [19:55] or check Session and Startup first, because commenting out localhost can lose internet connection, depending on what modem is used [19:55] #127.0.1.1 crobot [19:55] like that? [19:55] yes [19:56] god this is making me insane, why refuses xorg to stick to my settings, only way i can get the resolution to stick is to put xrandr settings in .xprofile [19:56] and i refuse to do that [19:56] ok restarting [19:56] oh my bad, i didn't see that it's 0.1.1 [19:57] Could not save the file “/etc/hosts”.

If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo [20:01] ah gawd, nano *is* CLI, i'm sorry lolz :D [20:01] welp, hackernews/ycombinator will not take my post with my suggestions for ubuntu 17.10 :( [20:01] hey guys I have a ubuntu 16.04 virtual server, I am trying to increase my VHD, in hyper-v I expanded it, and now I tried to boot into livecd, to increase the partition size, but /dev/sda5 shows as locked. It is showing as LVM.. Does anybody know how I could increase or unlock it? [20:01] frazr_ just so I know when I get home (if no one has fixed it yet)are you using the Nvidia drivers? and which version? [20:02] NVIDIA-SMI 375.39 [20:02] just removed everything and wrote a brand new xorg.conf, still same issues, something is overriding it [20:02] !cli [20:02] had issues before with .nvidia-settings-rc or .config/monitors.xml overriding [20:02] but not this time it seems [20:02] i didn't know gksudo was deprecated [20:03] ..:) [20:03] re: IPTABLES, is NAT masquerading and forwarding the same thing? [20:03] frazr_ that's interesting...I run a Debian system @ home but when I get there I'll toy around with it to see what I can figure out. Hopefully you get some help before then though (just on my phone right now) [20:03] probably not huh? [20:04] i wonder if her 127.0.1.1 was some kind of router vpn or something o.0 [20:04] I can not boot in to ubuntu [20:04] ah xD [20:04] Black screen comes up when I type My pass [20:04] yeah, im seriously thinking of switching back to debian :P [20:04] jesus.. i knew that was a bad idea. :)) [20:05] kgb, opena console ctrl+alt+f1 === blkadder is now known as blkadder[afk] [20:05] thanks SlidingHorn , should have it solved by then i hope, and get some real work done, this stuff is just like a thorn in my sidfe that i cant quite drop [20:05] :) [20:05] angel_swe, open a console ctrl+alt+f1 [20:05] Did [20:05] angel_swe, login [20:06] angel_swe, and sudo nano /etc/hosts [20:06] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/s4MIaPpi/irccloudcapture338878935.jpg [20:07] angel_swe, you put your username as your host machine [20:07] Booting normal after I removed the comment [20:08] angel_swe, your hostaname is really localhost [20:08] Give me A sec please [20:08] I entered My pass on Login screen [20:08] angel_swe, your hostname it's not your username [20:08] Black screen for 2 sec and bow asking My pass again [20:09] iora what shall I do? [20:09] Noe I am in My ubutntu [20:09] is techsupport here better on weekdays than weekends ? [20:09] angel_swe, can you login in the desktop ? [20:09] Yes [20:10] Shall I open host and rename myhostname [20:10] Didact69 just kind of depends on when people have time to help. We're al volunteers here [20:10] angel_swe, but you understand that your hostname it's not your username ? [20:11] in the Universal Access panel I don't see any voice related to "zoom", should I have one? am I missing some Unity control panel package? [20:11] Well I you say so [20:11] angel_swe, the hostname it's the name of your pc, the username it's the name of your user [20:11] I'm referring to 16.04 [20:11] After it returns Like linux [20:12] iora is that something we can fix? [20:12] SlidingHorn: I figure people can volunteer more while at work is my thought [20:13] SlidingHorn: Yea. I help as I can while in my office at work. [20:13] Didact69: So, weekdays for me. [20:13] angel_swe, if you run the hostname in terminal it giges you you 'linux' ? [20:14] *gives [20:14] this cpde u gave [20:14] With -f [20:14] I'm getting errors trying to use sudo rsync -rl to move files to my raspberry pi. It used to work fine but now I'm getting broken pipe 32, or error code 255 constantly. I tried to set the serveraliveinterval and it still doesn't work. [20:14] Anyone have any ideas? [20:15] I'm running the latest version of ubuntu and having some trouble running a program [20:15] granted, it's intended to run in Windows or on a Mac but it's entirely in JRE [20:15] !wine | bumblefuzz [20:15] bumblefuzz: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [20:15] this is a link to the file: http://www.uworld.com/clients/UWorldUSMLE.jnlp [20:15] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/5o8pj56R/irccloudcapture530020997.jpg [20:16] wine doesn't help because it isn't an .exe [20:16] Ah. It's Java. My mistake. Wrong instrustions there. [20:16] it's java [20:16] angel_swe, ok, replace in /etc/hosts/ this line '127.0.1.1 crobot' with '127.0.1.1 linux.example.com linux' [20:16] there's got to be some simple way to trick the JRE to think it's running Windows [20:16] bumblefuzz: do other Java applications run on your machine? [20:17] sure [20:17] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/4jjSQlIj/irccloudcapture402695559.jpg [20:18] iora Like that? [20:18] angel_swe, yes [20:18] bumblefuzz: I'm not sure I can help you here. Perhaps someone else can? or !java === james is now known as Guest13763 === Guest13763 is now known as jamesleimer [20:19] I'm sure there's someone here with lots of linux wizardry experience that know how to trick java into thinking it's on a Windows machine... [20:19] different question what feature is System Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Universal Access > "Turn zoom on or off" referring to? [20:19] ioria, angell-swe if that 127.0.1.1 crobot is something in session and startup - it's gonna fail again [20:20] iora and reboot? [20:20] I even tried starting it from the CLI with the '-property os.name=Windows' option but that didn't work either [20:20] bumblefuzz: what leads you to believe it needs to run in windows? [20:20] kgb, what in session and startup ? [20:20] angel_swe, yes [20:20] the system requirements on the website indicate either Windows or Mac [20:20] i thought java was "write once run anywhere!" /s [20:20] no idea!..:) bt why did the logon fail the last time [20:20] it is [20:20] that's why there has to be some way to run it [20:20] bumblefuzz: why is that? what are they using that the JRE in windows/MacOS has that the *nix one doesn't? [20:21] I'm not sure about that [20:21] but there is some kind of check [20:21] I've tried running it and it doesn't work [20:21] bumblefuzz: isnt that question better suited in a java channel? [20:21] yes and no [20:21] bumblefuzz: that's the whole point of the JRE, that it is platform independent. Perhaps there are some differences, but I can't imagine they added a random OS check without a reason. [20:21] whats wrong with the installer for ubuntu 16.04 [20:22] they're super paranoid about someone lifting their content [20:22] all I'm trying to do is actually use the program [20:22] * CrazySane is leaving the office. [20:22] angell-swe: do you have like a crazy boyfriend with access to your machine? :) [20:22] Good luck! [20:22] that's just silly. you can lift it on windows or the mac just as easily. [20:22] sure [20:22] jamesleimer: what do you mean? [20:22] ioria: I typed in My pass at Login screen twice. It's asks 2 Times with A Black screen between. [20:22] I know, right? [20:22] hi [20:22] iora now I am in My desktop again [20:23] it wouldnt install ubuntu..kept going to a black screen..i finally had to go to 14.04 then upgrade to 16.04 [20:23] anyone know about my rsync errors? so far I've got code 32, code 255, code 10 [20:23] wtf is happening [20:23] angel_swe, same the localhost.localdomain issue ? [20:23] jamesleimer: some video cards need a special treatment. like setting "nomodeset" [20:23] iora hostname -f turns back linux.example.com [20:23] lol tried that...gold ol' google [20:24] jamesleimer: some machines, you can use a different install media to get going - like, cd vs. dvd vs. usb (if you're not bothered to see what's the problem. :)) [20:24] *btw. [20:24] angel_swe, ok, but you still see the same localhost.localdomain in the login screen ? [20:24] iora and now at logim screen (top left) it shows localhost [20:24] No more. Localdomain [20:24] nah now that i got ubuntu installed..im set [20:25] Hi [20:25] anyone about the Keyboard shortcut? is that Unity's or vanilla GNOME's? [20:25] angel_swe, and your prompt ? how it looks ? [20:25] sweet just sometimes a different image will have /not have whatever was halting the install process btw. [20:25] I have two bluetooth devices. One of them I can connect and disconnect repeatedly and it works just fine. The other is an Amazon echo, which after the first working connection never works again, but causes youtube stream to stop immediately.. what could be causing this? thank you [20:25] Cant I Just create A New User [20:25] Will that help? [20:26] iora prompt? [20:27] i'm like 99% sure someone had (physically) messed with your machine angell-swe :) ie. mom installing software to monitor facebook xd [20:27] angel_swe, yes... crabot@ what ? [20:28] ls [20:28] /nick DebianTUX [20:29] kgb: no one has physically access to My pc [20:29] angel_swe, and you have some errors about /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20-autoupgrades-ucf-dists file .... what is that ? [20:29] I can't imagine many mom's being able to figure out how to install software to monitor facebook on Ubuntu [20:30] iora I have no idea. Never had errors before [20:30] she might be a closet nerd [20:30] not being on facebook is a bad thing? [20:30] angel_swe, https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/s4MIaPpi/irccloudcapture338878935.jpg [20:30] having to type pwd twice.. login fail when commenting a line out of hosts.. idk. [20:31] it's pretty *crazy* if you ask me =) [20:31] Will it help if I create A New User? And use it from now on? [20:31] Why ubuntu doesnt have something Like scansfc windowd got [20:31] i can't manage to set up distcc [20:32] sfcscan is overrated :) [20:32] angel_swe, sudo adduser [20:32] So what shall I do? [20:32] Does anybody know if there is a wey to set up a xserver that could show "blinking colurs" from an 8 bit coulor depth aplication? [20:32] how do i get it to work over ssh? [20:33] Asking for room number [20:34] angel_swe, just type [20:34] I've got 2 ubuntu installations [20:34] ppf: you need distccd installed everywhere, aiui [20:35] Let me delete crobot user [20:35] And reboot to New [20:35] how can I update grub on my 2nd installation from the first one? [20:35] ppf, like this: https://www.ixquick.com/do/dsearch?query=distcc+over+ssh :DD [20:35] angel_swe, wait ... sudo usermod -a -G sudo >yournewuser> [20:35] ppf: and then you just specify ssh hosts in the config [20:35] iora oh wait I am in New User now [20:36] nacc: distccd is up and runnig [20:36] whose config? [20:36] iora shall I back to crobot to type your Code? [20:36] angel_swe, nope, you need to relogin to the first user [20:36] angel_swe, yes [20:36] !google | kgb [20:36] kgb: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. [20:36] kgb: not that you used google, but still [20:36] Ok let me go back to crobot [20:37] gotcha *whistle* [20:37] ppf: hosts [20:37] ppf: however you are specifying it now [20:37] ppf: see `man distcc` [20:37] !ip address [20:38] hosts meaning what? [20:38] ppf: read the manpage, it's a file used by distcc [20:38] nacc: it's kinda complex, though; probably will generate another 101 questions. :) [20:38] i've got one machine that i want the compiler to run on, and one that's doing the preprocessing [20:38] ^^ like that [20:38] i'd call the former the host [20:38] nacc: I did [20:38] iora done [20:38] !ipaddress [20:38] ppf: 'preprocessing'? [20:38] angel_swe, ok, loginyour newuser and sudo apt update [20:38] ppf: no, 'hosts' as as in hosts to run distcc on [20:39] ppf: not the host in client/host relationship [20:39] iora is it admin User aswell? New one? [20:39] alright, but what i'd call the client has a dynamic address and name [20:40] ppf: what [20:40] ppf: there is no 'client' in distcc, what are you talkinga bout? [20:40] ppf: you have a machine you run `distcc` on, and then you have 1+ hosts that you are remotely going to use as slaves to build [20:41] angel_swe, sudo apt update works ? [20:41] ppf: by default (plain mode), distcc does preprocessing on the machine you run it on and then sends compilation to slaves [20:41] nacc: wouldn't the "client" suggest a "server" counterpart rather than "host"? [20:41] nacc: the former is what i called a client [20:41] ppf: in pump mode slaves do both [20:41] yes [20:41] anddam: i don't know what you're referring to. ppf is the one that said "client" [20:42] if i understood you correctly, i'm supposed to add all machines to everyone's distcc config [20:42] iora https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/T6omNCay/irccloudcapture1751828105.jpg [20:42] ppf: no. [20:42] ppf: there is one distcc config [20:42] okay [20:42] ppf: the machine you are runnnig it (distcc) on [20:42] good [20:42] ppf: all the remotes need distccd installed and not running if using ssh [20:43] ppf: again, this is all literally in the manpage [20:43] ppf: e.g., use `distcc --show-hosts` to see what it would use [20:43] angel_swe, network is working ? ping www.google.com [20:43] nacc: I did, shows the host i'm intending it to use [20:45] ppf: ok, and did you configure it to use ssh as documented in the manpage? [20:45] iora no. İt doesnt sees My Wireless. Sees neigbors [20:45] could not resolve, bc of 127.0.1.1 (whatever the ntwrk it's looking for. :)) [20:46] @hostname, yes [20:46] ppf: and you understand that distccd should *not* be running on the remote [20:46] kgb telling me? [20:46] kgb, 127.0.1.1 is not set on username [20:47] nacc: you said so, yes [20:47] it's still a route [20:47] ppf: ok, because earlier you said distccd is running [20:47] installed [20:48] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/pREzhZEh/irccloudcapture1177565871.jpg [20:48] ppf: ok, and what happens when you use distcc? === PanicAtTheKernel is now known as jq [20:48] angel_swe, do you have a static ip ? [20:48] iora no [20:49] nacc: hang on, need to get cmake to pick it up, again ... [20:50] angell-swe: i was yea, is your firewall on, could you be bothered to run sudo ufw status verbose pls? === Sedated_ is now known as Sedated [20:52] kgb: inactive [20:52] or at least sudo ufw status .. to flip it on and minimize the damage if someone was playing #whosmylittleremotebot with your box. :) [20:52] sudo ufw enable that at least :D [20:52] nacc: so. running the build with distcc, while watching distccmon, only runs on localhost [20:53] ppf: i don't know what distccmon is, but if you ssh to the remote, is the compiler running? [20:53] angel_swe, reboot [20:54] kgb it Will be active om startup [20:54] ppf: you can also set DISTCC_VERBOSE=1 [20:54] ugh [20:54] Ok [20:54] angel_swe yes... maybe not good if you don't configure it [20:54] ioria: it's cool, just a temp thing [20:55] kgb, yes, i don't think it's the problem [20:55] ofc.

[20:56] yes [20:57] I installed an app from ubuntu's repo (wireshark-gtk) and when I start it, it ony displays the title bar, nothing else.... what do? [20:57] ppf: so `ssh i41pc78.ipd.kit.edu` works? [20:57] ppf: no other options [20:57] ppf: and no messages printed?

[21:06] nacc, i dont think i said that. I thought I said that I am currently using a 4.8 kernel and would like to revert to an earlier one i.e. 4.7 or earlier because from what I read in the post I was led to believe that that would resolve the issue [21:06] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/e9mXwgcr/irccloudcapture1387192362.jpg [21:06] frib: right and i told you to use 4.4, as it's supported and your answer was something else [21:07] angel_swe paste ls /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ [21:07] i thoguht you asked me if I Coudl use the 4.4 kernel [21:07] frib: you should be able to install `linux-generic` if it's not already installed and just reboot to 4.4 [21:07] i have no idea if I could, that's why I Was asking you!

[21:15] angel_swe error again... no spaces [21:15] !hwe | frib [21:15] frib: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [21:15] nacc, what do you make of that prompt etc? === pifon is now known as nomad101 [21:15] angel_swe ls /etc/apt/apt.conf.d (no spaces) [21:15] ppf: what does `ssh distcc --help` report? [21:15] angell-swe: after removing that file (http://askubuntu.com/questions/854329/how-to-repair-apt-auto-upgrades) you can sudo apt-get autoremove && apt-get clean [21:15] frib: i don't know where that prompt comes from [21:16] nacc: just switched the compiler to g++, now it appears to be working ... [21:16] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/F8S5V0Xk/irccloudcapture549202757.jpg [21:16] ppf: ah === nomad101 is now known as pifon [21:16] ppf: what were you using before? [21:16] angel_swe do you see now that file ? [21:16] ppf: what invocation line [21:16] c++ [21:16] nacc, those hwe things are apparently already installed [21:16] angel_swe 20auto-upgrades.ucf.dist ? [21:17] frib: yes, you need to not have them installed if you want to use 4.4 [21:17] /usr/lib/distcc/c++ vs /usr/lib/distcc/g++ [21:17] how can i install `syslog-ng` and all it's dependencies? [21:17] nacc, so i should remove them then [21:17] ppf: typically on linux c++ is g++ iiuc [21:18] though I am already using 4.4 [21:18] I typed sudo apt-get autoremove && apt-get clean [21:18] nacc: that's what i assumed ... [21:18] but it appears to be differnt somehow [21:18] ppf: also strange that you're using a compiler from /usr/lib/distcc that doesn't seem typical [21:18] angell-swe: sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean (don't kill me, forgot the second sudo :)) [21:18] ioria: what Code I should Enter now [21:18] angel_swe you need to move /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf.dist from there [21:18] nacc: those are just symlinks to distcc [21:19] ppf: right, if they are both symlinks to distcc, that seems odd [21:19] ppf: dunno [21:19] nacc, should i do `sudo apt remove linux-generic-hwe-16.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04` ? [21:19] angel_swe sudo mv /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf.dist /home/$USER [21:19] ppf: usually you say CC=distcc or so [21:19] it'll deduce the compiler from argv[0] [21:19] ioria: why confuse the issue with move, instead of removing it [21:19] cmake get's weird if CC isn't a file [21:19] kgb, caution [21:19] frib: right, but you need to install the non-hwe stack [21:19] no need in this case :) [21:19] ppf: sounds like cmake can't use distcc or somesuch [21:19] kgb, :) [21:19] iora wait its progressing kgb s code [21:20] nacc, is that mentioned in this link? I don't see it [21:20] nacc: it expects CC to point to an executable file (which is sensible most of the time) [21:20] ^ yeah it's packed with who knows what.. you're gonna get some Permission denied errors at the end bc i forgot the second sudo :D [21:20] if i set CC="distcc gcc" strange things happen [21:20] either way, that's what the symlinks are for [21:20] sudo apt-get clean is gonna fix it, then get rid of the file and try the update :) [21:21] nacc, i guess the non-hwe is the one from 14.04? [21:21] ppf: uh, 'distcc gcc' is nonsense? [21:21] angell-swe: as in: sudo rm /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf-dist (just kill it with fire. :)) [21:21] I Will type with second sudo when its finish. Is that Fine kgb [21:21] =) [21:21] frib: no. [21:21] frib: non-hwe is what is in 16.04.1 [21:22] Kgb what files its removing now [21:22] frib: 'sudo apt install linux-generic xserver-xorg' [21:22] frib: or just wait til the bug is fixed [21:22] i already installed linux-generic [21:23] angell-swe: just the apt-get database (with the second command) and the first one is for unneeded dependencies [21:23] will installing xserver-xorg replace my current hwe stack with the non-hwe one? [21:23] frib: yes, i think it should [21:23] angell-swe: but that damn localhost issue-thingy remains still :f [21:23] frib: but i'm not 100%, it's a trickier change [21:23] frib: you might just try a 16.04.1 live usb first [21:23] nacc: what? [21:23] nacc, ill just try it, and yes apparently those hwe packages will be removed [21:24] angel_swe have you moved that file ? [21:24] nacc, so now reboot again? [21:24] frib: you coudl try it [21:24] or no need? [21:25] iora no its progressing. Shall I open New terminal window and do it [21:25] ppf: CC="distcc gcc" makes no sense. CC is supposed to be (aiui) the compiler to use. "distcc gcc" is not a compiler [21:25] angel_swe wait .... [21:25] So are you guys running custom kernels on any of your Ubuntu machines? [21:25] nacc: agreed, that's what i said [21:25] !ot | kernelmodder [21:25] kernelmodder: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [21:26] kernelmodder: no many of us aren't [21:26] some use !mainline for testing, kernelmodder [21:26] !mainline [21:26] The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [21:27] angel_swe what is this mamerley you installed ? nvida driver ppa ? [21:27] nacc, even after installing linux-generic and xserver-xorg and switching to 4.4 kernel it still doesn't work [21:27] ppf: So how come whenever I try and customize anything inside the Linux kernel, I either end up with a bunch of errors that eventually end up in a non-zero error code in make, or a kernel panic? [21:27] nacc, should I Try with a 16.04.1 liveusb? [21:27] frib: ok, sounds like it's not a bug in the kernel then [21:27] kernelmodder: customizing the kernel is not meant to be a trivial affair [21:28] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/JuumPJSr/irccloudcapture1603019884.jpg [21:28] kernelmodder: but customizing and building the kernel from source is offtopic and better discussed in other hannels [21:29] kgb it wont hurt nothing Just because I fprgpt sudo at second right? [21:29] angel_swe it's a quassell ppa not supported in yakkety, you need to remove that ppa [21:29] no it won't [21:29] but you can run sudo apt-get clean now btw. [21:30] ^ and perhaps purge that PPA... if it's even listed in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ (or how else to get rid of it :)) [21:31] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/A6pZRdF0/irccloudcapture1489072308.jpg [21:31] angel_swe sudo mv /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf.dist /home/$USER [21:32] and then we're half-way there. :D [21:32] So what channel should I go to for kernel development? [21:32] !alis | kernelmodder [21:32] kernelmodder: Alis is an IRC service to help you find channels. For help on using it, see "/msg Alis help list" or ask in #freenode. Example usage: "/msg Alis list http" [21:33] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/foYKDz42/irccloudcapture639996844.jpg [21:34] needs a space before /home/$USER [21:34] angel_swe please, exactly how it's written sudo mv /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf.dist /home/$USER [21:34] angell-swe: also is your hostname -f normal now (or still insane? :)) [21:35] Sorru I am on My phone [21:35] kernelmodder: that's because kernel hacking is hard [21:35] nacc: well it works now, thanks for the pointers :) [21:35] time to add more machines ;) [21:36] ppf: what was missing? [21:36] actually no idea. could be because of the cc/gcc thing [21:36] can u please type it again [21:36] I will copy paste [21:37] now I am in [21:37] ppf: ah ok [21:37] angel_swe sudo mv /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf.dist /home/$USER [21:41] Hello; this is my first time here as I am struggling with booting my installed Ubuntu. I am not sure if I am in the right place to ask for help [21:41] ioria: will this be enough after? sudo apt-add-repository --remove ppa:mamarley/quassel [21:41] kgb, yeah, that or with ppa-purge [21:41] visiona, i would say you're in the only place [21:42] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/DeSUf4Qc/irccloudcapture1024450461.jpg [21:42] without purge and running the auto updated with the sources gone? :)) [21:42] visiona: What help do you need [21:42] kgb, the second purge completely [21:42] oh, well I am happy to find it [21:43] angel_swe has bee removed ? ls /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf.dist [21:43] ucf-dist not ucf.dist [21:43] visiona: what is the matter? [21:43] see the error above [21:44] OerHeks, ucf-dist not ucf.dist ... [21:45] I wasted so much time so far and still cant enjoy Ubuntu. Basically I have installed ubuntu 16.04 as dual system with WIndows 10, when I restart it doesnt turn on as Ubuntu, if I run 'Try run ubuntu from CD' (after forcing to boot CD first) I have black screen [21:45] Boot Repair doesn't work either as after clicking session it freezes [21:46] visiona: do you see grub menu on restart? [21:46] angel_swe why don't you use pastebinit ? [21:46] ioria, N. Ignoring file '20auto-upgrades.ucf-dist' so it is just a typo [21:46] if I can get to grub menu but it doesnt recognizes cd, sudo and other basic commands [21:46] grub cl [21:47] visiona: do you see the grub menu? yes or no? [21:47] (not talking about the comandline) [21:47] angel_swe can you install pastebinit ? sudo apt install pastebinit [21:48] mv: cannot stat '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf.dist': No such file or directory [21:48] sorry I wasn't clear; yes I see it now [21:48] angell-swe: file gone? sudo mv /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf-dist /home/$USER [21:48] angel_swe sudo apt install pastebinit [21:48] check the typo in the file name ^^ [21:48] sudo mv /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades.ucf-dist /home/$USER [21:49] visiona: so if you choose ubuntu on grub menu, you only see a black screen then?
