[01:22] did you open system monitor or top [01:23] maybe a process is using up cpu or disk io [01:23] no [01:23] hitman1: how many cores in this system? [01:23] 2 [01:24] hitman1: something is eating up your cores [01:24] Can I migrate from Windows to Ubuntu without losing my data(without backup, no temporary hard disk) [01:24] what thing [01:24] chrome is using more - what I see [01:25] what is the threshold for a process for memory it can use ? [01:26] hitman1: I do not understand your question [01:26] Like chrome is using 9% of mem [01:26] hitman1: that's not much [01:27] I want to know what is the max value it can use where beyond that value system freezes? [01:28] hitman1: pretty much the whole available memory. it all depends on what else is running in the system. [01:28] Now system is running normally. [01:29] hitman1: for comparison, my Chrome is right now using ~1.7G of main memory [01:29] But I only have 4G of memory as total and I think you have more.

[01:39] Nautilus will not show sda7. which would be called 60g drive even tho is is 55.9 --- it is /home to this 14.04. could that be why? [01:40] nautilus doesn't show drives that are already mounted probably [01:40] I thought you meant it didn't show up under df -h or something [01:40] it shows it under lsblk [01:40] Iforgot df-h [01:42] tried it. df -h output is confusing. lsblk is clear. [01:42] tho it doesnt show used and available [01:43] tripelb: Btw, if you just spilled your password into the channel, make sure to change it. [01:43] I did not show my password. [01:44] if its h3ath3r you did [01:44] those are all bash commands [01:44] oh yes. I thought I was in console. Thanks, I will.

What do you mean by "two connections unmanaged and one that stays in connecting state"? Where are you seeing these connections? [02:03] 16.10 [02:04] On both machines [02:04] tripelb: not that i'm aware of. [02:04] If I go to the connection icon and I put edit connections I can see 3 "wired" connections [02:05] One has the ON switch and the other two anything [02:05] tripelb: You can add a filesystem label that will show up in the output of "blkid". The device name will still be /dev/sdXY but you'll be able to more easily find the device name. Also, OS installers will usually list a filesystem's label next to the partition containing that filesystem. [02:06] I had a router when it was working fine, then my router burnt and I had to connect directly the isp provider modem to my machine using the ethernet cable [02:06] Since then I cannot make internet work [02:07] j4f-shredder_: does the modem provide DHCP? [02:07] Its a desktop pc [02:07] Yes [02:07] Dhcp [02:07] It seems that somehow it saved the router ethernet connection [02:07] Jordan_U, wedgie fedora tells you less when you are installing. basically I need to know the sdax already and the nautilus-thing they have doesnt tell me. and I had forgotten lsblk.. prolly tired. BUT fedora recognizes my wifi hardware so I dont have to be on ethernet when I install it. [02:08] i installed ubuntu and had no wifi. :( [02:08] I plugged it Modem--》Router-》Pc and now is Modem-》Pc [02:08] hi, I am trying to troubleshoot one of my friends HP laptop, Ubuntu 14.4 LTS, seems to crash irresponsively, screen freeze and kernel seems dead, syslog shows nothing, last entry regarding network scan then reboot log, is it a hardware issue ? [02:09] j4f-shredder_: It's likely that your modem will only connect to one ethernet card (by MAC address) or that it's expecting PPPoE, which requires more configuration on the PC side, including entering your DSL username and password. [02:10] And why my laptop with also ubuntu 16.10 accepted it in one go? [02:10] Without any config [02:10] kenrin, Removed quotes from both line ends package manager and update now working Thanks for the help [02:11] I plug the ethernet cable and it works [02:11] Np, watch those typos~ [02:11] j4f-shredder_: It might not use PPPoE but might still only allow connecting to one MAC address. [02:11] Ohh, I will get a new router on monday [02:12] Perhaps this is not worth it [02:12] You usually have to reset a modem when connecting a different device [02:12] j4f-shredder_: You might use one of your working machines to share internet to the others. It's not hard to setup. [02:12] Unless it is also a router [02:12] I already have that, but no wifi card on my desktop [02:13] I created a hotspot bash script [02:15] sudo nmcli device wifi hotspot con-name my-hotspot ssid my-hotspot band bg password Bcnim$ [02:15] Thay is my sctopy [02:15] Script === madsa is now known as Guest30808 === themyth_ is now known as themyth [02:28] This linux switch is tough!! 3 weeks in and I am totally flustered lol === madsa_ is now known as Guest32742 === joe75_ is now known as joe75 [02:56] Hi. I've got a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04.2 on a system I just cobbled together. Install went fine and wirelessly. When rebooted, it had no network interfaces. (ethernet is connected to mobo port, mobo is nvidia) Wireless shows in iwconfig but no interface in /etc/network/interfaces. === PanicAtTheKernel is now known as jq [03:04] generally you would lspci | grep -i net [03:04] Gallowglass: are you using the computer right now? [03:06] tatertots: I have it booted. I'm irc'ed from my laptop [03:07] hey guys, seemingly out of nowhere on a ubuntu 16.04 on an imac 2010, the unity launcher doesn't show opened applications and ALT+TAB doesn't either. (when I open an application, it works, but doesn't show as open on the launcher) loging out and in again fixes it until the next reboot [03:07] any ideas [03:10] did you apt-get update [03:12] wastrel: If you're asking me, then the answer is that I can't - both wireless and wired connections have no interfaces associated with them. [03:13] Gallowglass: did the computer have internet connectivity while booted to livecd/liveusb? yes or no [03:14] tatertots: It's an Ubuntu Server install, so I never really took it to LiveCD mode, but the installer went through connecting to the wireless successfully and downloaded updates. [03:14] Gallowglass, You need to configure with WPA_Supplicant [03:15] PipeItToDevNull: Doesn't come standard, looked up the package and it and many dependencies are missing... lotta downloading via another computer. I guess I *could* try all that, but it will be a lot of trouble to do it. [03:16] Ah, sec [03:16] Does the command nmcli work [03:17] not on a ubuntu "server" edition install...nmcli isn't there by default [03:17] Pipe: 'nmcli' is not installed. [03:17] Guess you dont have any wifi support, it is a server after all [03:17] Gallowglass: is the computer "hardwired" right now with a ethernet cable? yes or no [03:19] tatertots: Yes, it's hard-wired to a network with connection. That port is integrated to the motherboard, and the mobo is nvidia. I'm afraid the device isn't detected because a proprietary driver is needed. [03:21] Gallowglass: you better boot livecd/liveusb, where according to your own testimony, there'd be at least a probability of having connectivity. In your current situation you have no connectivity at all wired/wireless or otherwise and can do absolutely nothing [03:22] Gallowglass: lspci | grep -i net [03:23] window [03:23] wastrel: does that list the devices? [03:23] tatertots: Okay. While I'm at it, this machine is intended to be a server, but would installing desktop Ubuntu be so different? [03:24] wastrel: details coming [03:24] it lists whatever pci devices the kernel sees [03:24] Bridge: NVIDIA Corporation MCP51 Ethernet Controller (rev a3) [03:24] clear [03:24] Netoer controller: Ralink corp. RT2800 802.11n PCI [03:25] *network controller [03:25] Gallowglass: installation process would be similar but end result of the installation and the packages that would be resident not so similar [03:25] is it normally a good idea to wait a bit after a new release comes out before installing [03:26] energizer, did you mean LTS or non [03:26] 17.04 [03:26] thats nine month support cycle for non LTS energizer [03:27] tatertots: In order to avoid crazy amounts of manual downloading, maybe installing the Desktop is the best idea. I think I'll have to put that disk in anyways, since I didn't see a live environment on the Server disk menu [03:27] Gallowglass: understand that in your current situation you have do nothing, you couldn't download anything or install anything from the internet, so there's little value in you staring it the screen hoping to do something in the current state of this system === Chinesium is now known as Chinesium_Nights [03:27] that seems to be a really old card [03:27] and it works with the install image [03:28] Gallowglass: yes the desktop edition [03:28] i don't know why it woudln't work with 16.04 [03:28] energizer, were it to be a LTS, then waiting on a point release perhaps [03:28] 16.04.1 for example [03:29] i see [03:29] tatertots: Yes, off to grab my Desktop disc, as no live environment for server. [03:30] Hi everybody!!! [03:31] hi [03:34] tatertots: I'm burning up a new copy, and I'll install that instead. Any major recommendations/actions to take while in LiveCD mode to avoid this situation? [03:38] Gallowglass: hardwire the computer with ethernet cable if possible, you'll have an opportunity to establish network connectivity during installation and or while in livecd/liveusb environment. === war10ck is now known as Guest73307 [03:40] tatertots: Okay.

[05:54] Ben64 i have a drive mounted, and i want a particular folder on it to be my new home folder [05:55] madprops: it will upgrade to final [05:55] energizer: you'd have to set that up in fstab. what filesystem is it? [05:56] madprops: less buggy [05:56] jfmdn: use logrotate [05:57] ben64 you mean like ext4? [05:57] yes [05:57] ext4 [05:58] cool, why a subfolder though instead of the whole partition? [05:59] i suppose i could reconsider that [05:59] what are the downsides [06:00] it'd be in two places at once, it would rely on the parent being mounted before home could mount [06:00] oic id have to have two separate lines in fstab, first mount UUID to /media/drive then mount /media/drive to /home ? [06:02] well you said subdirectory so it'd be /media/drive/home to /home [06:02] right [06:07] energizer: since you mention /media, I'm guessing that drive is removable? Do you plan to have this drive always connected when your pc is booted, or sometimes it'll be removed? [06:08] alkisg: not removable, just an example [06:08] OK [06:08] where was i supposed to moutn nonremovable [06:09] Nonremovable drives are usually specified in /etc/fstab, and are used for things like the whole /home, or the whole /srv etc. But sure you can use /media too if you like, it's just that usually removable media goes in /media. [06:09] mhmm [06:12] rebooting, wish me luck... [06:14] wget http://digilander.libero.it/udasoft/Software/Linux/buduscript/buduscript_3786_2808.tar.gz && tar xvzf buduscript_3786_2808.tar.gz -C $HOME/.xchat2 && rm -vf buduscript_3786_2808.tar.gz && cd $HOME/.xchat2/buduscript && ./install.sh === zz_MasterScript is now known as MasterScript [06:27] that's pro stuff [06:27] I'd need someone to reproduce the non-working of magnifier feature in 16.04 Unity [06:28] specifically System Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Universal Access has "Turn zoom on or off", "Zoom in" and "Zoom out" already set but using their shortcuts won't have any effect [06:30] further more, installing compizconfig-settings-manager and running it displays the Enhanced Zoom Desktop component as present, but its zoom in and zoom out feature have no shortcuts. Setting those allows the use of magnifier [06:31] odd thing is that setting the same shortcuts via System Settings now inhibits the feature again, i.e. System Settings is hiding Compiz magnifier by trapping the shortcuts and then doing nothing [06:35] Is there a way to make Ubiquity installer not complain about the /boot folder being part of a rootfs on an encrypted partition? [06:49] ah I think this is the issue, System Settings > Universal Access in unity lacks the "zoom" section at https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.6/figures/users-system-settings-universal-access.png [07:04] not perfect... [07:04] looks like some configuration stuff is missing [07:05] im missing themes and launcher icons [07:05] I apparently have this problem: http://askubuntu.com/questions/871630/cant-send-audio-to-amazon-echo-via-bluetooth (initally thought it was this problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1608820 but realized that it only happens with the echo). But the strange thing is that it only started happening as of yesterday morning. Before that the echo didn't cause this problem. Can anyone recommend a [07:05] solution? thanks [07:05] Launchpad bug 1574324 in pulseaudio (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1608820 pulseaudio crashes when connecting to bluetooth headphones (due to ubuntu changes?)" [High,Fix released] === andyhuzhill1 is now known as andyhuzhill === ca_ds is now known as android-br [07:27] frib: have you had any updates yesterday morning? [07:28] hi [07:28] can someone help me make the printer to work [07:28] I can't make it work on ubuntu [07:30] blackflow, like from where? [07:30] frib: to software [07:30] frib: you say it stopped working as of yesterday morning. what happened yesterday morning? did you have any updates? [07:31] blackflow, oh actually i think that's irrelevant because I reproduced this problem on both 16.04.1 and 15.04 live usbs [07:31] it seems, oddly enough, to be an issue with the device itself [07:31] but it worked fine until..... yesterday morning? [07:31] 2 days ago i did a 16.04.02 reinstall [07:31] blackflow, "fine" let say ya haha, it didn't NOT work [07:31] cups server say the job is completed but the printer does not print anything [07:32] i always have to go to bluetoothctl and do connect MAC etc.. [07:32] frib: well you're giving different information now, than in your original question, and I totally lost you. [07:32] because the unity-control-center "on/off" button is always greyed out [07:32] blackflow, I didn't realize I Was [07:32] I linked to a post saying that the echo pairs but won't play audio [07:32] that remains the case [07:33] phi_: checked the printer that it's ready to print? no jam? paper in? maybe there's a button on it you have to press to start printing received jobs? [07:33] blackflow, I added the part about having to use bluetoothctl because I thought the fact that it seems to be a strange way of having to connect the device might be relevant [07:34] but I guess blueman could substitute unity-control-center as well, so maybe not [07:34] long story short, as of yesterday morning the echo pairs but only plays audio on *first* connect [07:34] frib: well, I quote you: "But the strange thing is that it only started happening as of yesterday morning. Before that the echo didn't cause this problem. Can anyone recommend a solution?" [07:35] yes correct [07:35] and I was referring to that part. If you had any changes "as of yesterday morning" :) [07:35] no as of yesterday morning nothing has changed, though I've tried several things [07:35] maybe Echo updated? [07:36] blackflow, I wasn't aware that Echo did updates [07:36] but i did try to "hard reset" the device [07:36] (to no avail) [07:37] frib: "Your Alexa device receives software updates automatically over Wi-Fi. These updates usually improve performance and add new Alexa features." From here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/help/id=201602210 [07:37] is that the device? [07:38] blackflow, yes, the echo, the tall one [07:39] because, if you didn't update software on Ubuntu, and it just stopped working one morning, logic dictates the device itself then changed. [07:39] blackflow, yea it would seem, although the slightest thing can change without one even knowing it [07:39] if you _did_ do updates on that morning and right before it stopped working (you can check via /var/log/apt/history.log), you have more info on possible causes. [07:40] just as echo updated unknowingly, i might have done a apt-get upgrade that broke something [07:40] blackflow, as I said the problem persists in previous ubuntu live usbs [07:40] so i pretty much rule that out [07:40] also, it doesn't happen with other bluetooth headphones that ihave [07:40]
