[00:46] <zoofie_> Hi, can anyone direct me to the resources I need to utilize AlienFX on Ubuntu 16.10 if possible? I have tried to install pyalienfx with no avail. The only other thing I have tried since libusb is already installed was installing Java.
[00:48] <zoofie_> Google searches have lead to repeat things that do not work and broken links.
[01:10] <whoandwhythe> It would appear that 17.04 tacks --cvs-exclude to any rsync command and I can't figure out how to disable it. Please help.
[01:10] <whoandwhythe> I've tried --no-C and that doesn't work
[01:17] <MacBook__> is installing ubuntu on a macbook air a wise thing to do
[01:18] <sinthetek> as soon as rebooted for ubuntu 16.04->16.10 upgrade, an odd mouse-click/tapping noise started at the login screen. i immediately updated repos and began the 17.04 upgrade but the sound persists pseudo-randomly (sometimes in rapid succession). it is emitted both through internal sound or through hdmi if I set it as primary output. muting the sound stops it but not a viable solution in the long term.
[01:18] <sinthetek> anyone know how to resolve this issue?
[01:24] <gogeta> sinthetek, what now
[01:30] <MacBook_Air> is installing ubuntu on a macbook a wise ieda
[01:30] <Oerheks> i would try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source / or / dpkg-reconfigure linux-sound-base
[01:31] <doublevision> hi
[01:31] <Oerheks> or see the troubleshooting guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure
[01:31] <Oerheks> sinthetek ^^
[01:35] <whoandwhythe> In Ubuntu 17.04 why is --cvs-exclude on by default for rsync and how is this change reverted?
[01:36] <MacBook_Air> should I get 17.07
[01:36] <MacBook_Air> or 16.04.2
[01:44] <cristobal> MacBook_Air, 16.04.2 its  a lorn term release
[01:44] <cristobal> lorn term support release
[01:45] <hanasaki> I have a nic with a 10.1.1.1 address and 192.168.1.3 address/  why would there be no route to the host 192.168.1.1  ?
[01:54] <Smedles> Hi all, logging onto my ubuntu server running 17.04; i'm getting a message "Ubuntu 12.04 LTS end-of-life is April 25, 2017 -- Upgrade your Precise systems!" is this just a generic message?
[01:55] <dax> no.
[01:55] <dax> or, hrm
[01:55] <Smedles> related to installated but unsupported packages?
[01:57] <Oerheks> Smedles, you are the 2nd one today, it is a cruft from a previous install, i suppose you started with 12.04 and upgraded continuesly, see the MOTD
[01:57] <Smedles> Oerheks: yeah it's an old install that has been updated many times
[01:57] <Oerheks> :-)
[01:57] <dax> oh, that's why I hadn't heard of it, I reinstalled at LTS
[01:57] <Oerheks> see  /etc/motd
[01:57] <Oerheks> *  or that folder.
[01:58] <Menzador> When are we discontinuing 12.04 non-enterprise support? I understand Canonical is extending support for paid customers
[01:58] <Oerheks> dax,  i was baffled too, but the previous asker found out himself
[01:58] <Menzador> Is it 25/4?
[01:58] <Smedles> there is no /etc/motd fiel or folder, but I'll find it :)
[01:58] <Oerheks> Menzador, yes
[01:58] <Menzador> k
[02:00] <dax> oh, and it's update-motd, which I never keep installed
[02:00] <dax> righto, note to self, Ubuntu does enough weird motd stuff that i should keep away from questions about it :)
[02:01] <w9qbj> Smedles: /etc/motd is a text file you can build yourself - motd = MessageOfTheDay
[02:03] <Oerheks> dax, is it in  /etc/update-motd.d/ ??
[02:03] <dax> Oerheks: am sitting here poking at it. It's added by /etc/update-motd.d/50-motd-news
[02:03] <dax> which is pulling it from https://motd.ubuntu.com/
[02:04] <Oerheks> ty
[02:04] <dax> which as far as I can tell should be popping that text up on everyone's system (well, everyone who has update-motd and that script enabled)
[02:05] <Oerheks> Now to find a way if this happens only from 12.04 + upgrade path, or that it also happens with 14.04
[02:07] <w9qbj>   /etc/motd will be displayed at login, if you are logging in with a shell i.e. ssh, not with the opening of a terminal session.
[02:07] <dax> w9qbj: yep. update-motd, the thing Oerheks and I are talking about, is a script that adds stuff to that file
[02:09] <w9qbj> dax: I'm using 16.04 on both the 'big iron' and my RPi, neither have update-motd it's someting a user(root?) builds.
[02:09] <Smedles> well, if nothing else, it prompted me to look at the output of 'ubuntu-support-status --show-unsupported' and remove some olf cruft
[02:36] <RacismAlert> The CIA has determined that freenode's two new servers, donated by the United Klans of America to replace old hardware, are loaded with rootkits designed to allow Klan officials to k-line Jews.  Donald Trump has ordered this information destroyed, and freenode staff have been eliminated and replaced with agents
[02:37] <RacismAlert> One agent has defected to the side of the people, and leaked this information on slashdot and reddit
[02:37] <RacismAlert> However, dax is the most dangerous of the feds' agents
[02:37] <dax> can confirm, am very dangerous
[02:37] <RacismAlert> He is going to blow up all the internet routers to destroy this information
[02:38] <RacismAlert> the only solution is for Black Lives Matter to have a huge riot outside AT&T headquarters and block the freeway so he cannot get to the core routers
[02:39] <Oerheks> telnet, hmmmm?
[02:39] <elky> while i'm not adverse to annoying at&t, could you do it in a way less inconvenient to us?
[02:39] <RacismAlert> So please join us on Easter Sunday at AT&T headquarters, and do not forget your molotov cocktails and weed
[02:39] <bazhang> RacismAlert, thats hardly topical here
[02:39] <RacismAlert> Thank you and have a nice day
[02:39] <dax> toodles
[02:40] <whoandwhythe> How can I disable a default rsync option?  --no- doesn't work in this case. Ubuntu 17.04 adds -C to everything, even if no other arguments are provided. For example rsync test@192.168.1.1:/home/test/testfile /home/test2/testfile is sent to the server as rsync --server --sender -e.LsfxC . /home/test/testfile with the -C option enabled
[02:40] <baratheon> that sounds like you've either got an alias or an env var in the way
[02:42] <whoandwhythe> baratheon: Me? Where would I check? I see nothing relating to rsync in my .bashrc
[02:42] <baratheon> alias | grep rsync
[02:42] <baratheon> env | grep -i rsync
[02:42] <whoandwhythe> baratheon:  alias | grep rsync No output
[02:43] <whoandwhythe> baratheon: same for env | grep -i rsync.
[02:45] <baratheon> maybe adding --include=.* then?
[02:46] <baratheon> the only config files are for rsyncd
[02:46] <whoandwhythe> baratheon: I've tested on a pc, server, and laptop each running a fresh install of 17.04 all with the same results.
[02:47] <whoandwhythe> baratheon: It seemed that way the more I checked into them.
[02:53] <MrMonkey31> does linux respect the readonly attribute on ntfs drives?  is there any way to make it?
[03:01] <BurtReynolds> Hello  ubuntu
[03:13] <MrMonkey31> oh boy...
[03:21] <SynfulAck> with a sudo netstat -plnt that reads 0.0.0.0:someport means its listening to every type of request right? if it does then id also be curious on why you also get :::someport too?
[03:26] <monad> What method would you recommend to install & run Xubuntu (64bit) on a 64gb USB3.0 flash drive?
[03:26] <PipeItToDevNull> monad, What OS are you making the USB on
[03:26] <PipeItToDevNull> Sorry, misread that
[03:26] <monad> Xubuntu
[03:27] <monad> Using Xubuntu Live USB to create a Live USB, preferably.
[03:28] <monad> Except my current Live USB of Xubuntu doesn't seem to have "Startup Disc Creator" installed?
[03:28] <monad> (I'm downloading latest stable, now...)
[03:28] <krypto_> SynfulAck: listening on every available nic, not type of request
[03:32] <PipeItToDevNull> monad, I see two ways of doing that, one way of a persistence partition and the other just installing to the drive and putting grub on it
[03:33] <monad> Hmm... Don't I want a persistent partition? Pendrive Linux uses an .iso stored on the disk & grub, correct?
[03:34] <monad> I'm here asking, because I'm a bit confused.
[03:34] <monad> I mean, I'm using one now... But I made it using Windows, I have never done it from Linux.
[03:35] <monad> Actually, wait, the second option sound better.
[03:35] <PipeItToDevNull> Are you just trying to make a bootable USB or one that can be used as a full persistent OS
[03:35] <monad> Can I do that with NTFS so the same partition is still visible under arbitrary Windows PCs?
[03:35] <PipeItToDevNull> Dunno
[03:35] <monad> Full persistent OS.
[03:36] <monad> I use it frequently, booting from USB to Xubuntu, rather than using Windows.
[03:36] <PipeItToDevNull> You can make an 8GB OS persistent partition and share the rest of the space on a third partition
[03:36] <PipeItToDevNull> But, Windows my decide to screw up the USB
[03:37] <monad> Hm, I believe I have done that once before, on a more Debian -based distro. What tool would you use to do that, from within Xubuntu?
[03:37] <nyceane> hello guys
[03:37] <nyceane> anybody here
[03:38] <nyceane> ?
[03:38] <PipeItToDevNull> monad, you can just DD the ISO to the USB then shrink the partition, then make a persistent one and NTFS one if you so choose
[03:38] <nyceane> https://developer.ubuntu.com/core/get-started/intel-joule
[03:38] <nyceane> xzcat /media/ubuntu/<disk label>/tuchuck*.img.xz | sudo dd of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=32M status=progress; sync
[03:38] <nyceane> i am getting bash: /usr/bin/xzcat: Input/output error
[03:38] <ACCBiggz> Hey everyone! What's a good resource for issues with a game running through Wine? Getting a runtime error for a missing file, but unsure where to begin. Thanks!
[03:39] <nyceane> can anyone help me to fix it?
[03:40] <nyceane> also /dev/mmcblk0 does not exit, only /dev/mmcblk1 exit
[03:41] <monad> I will have to look up some documentation. I haven't used DD much, nor recently.
[03:41] <nyceane> thanks
[03:41] <nyceane> oh, nvm =|
[03:41] <PipeItToDevNull> dd if=/ISO of=/dev/sdX#
[03:41] <monad> ?!
[03:42] <PipeItToDevNull> monad, That will write the ISO to the USB
[03:42] <PipeItToDevNull> Or just use the utility gnome-disks
[03:42] <monad> if= of= ? I do need to read the docs again. Clearly been too long if the basic flags look foreign to me.
[03:43] <monad> Can't find any install utility on the current system...
[03:44] <nyceane> can anyone help me? :(
[03:45] <PipeItToDevNull> monad, install gnome-disks
[03:45] <monad> thx!
[03:49] <nyceane> help... somebody, anybody :(
[03:51] <Bashing-om> nyceane: I am free - maybe I can assist ? What is the issue ? ( I just joined )
[03:52] <quidnunc> nyceane: What device is this?
[03:52] <nyceane> joule
[03:52] <nyceane> https://developer.ubuntu.com/core/get-started/intel-joule
[03:52] <nyceane> i am following instructions until step 7
[03:52] <nyceane> "xzcat /media/ubuntu/<disk label>/tuchuck*.img.xz | sudo dd of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=32M status=progress; sync"
[03:53] <nyceane> but i am getting error bash: /usr/bin/xzcat :Input/output error bash: /usr/bin/sudo: Input/output error bash: /bin/sync: Input/outpuet error
[03:55] <quidnunc> nyceane: Like you pointed out earlier, the problem is that your /dev/mmblk0 doesn't exist
[03:57] <quidnunc> nyceane: I'm not sure if the problem is that the device should exist or the if the instructions are wrong and you should be using mmcblk1. Don't try to write to mmcblk1 unless you know what device it is
[03:57] <nyceane> i switched to mmblk1
[03:58] <nyceane> quidnunc, i switched to mmblk1, which exist, but i m getting the same error
[03:59] <quidnunc> nyceane: It's a bad idea to over-write data on arbitrary devices you don't u
[03:59] <nyceane> quidnunc, what should I do? :(
[04:00] <quidnunc> nyceane: You have a pretty unique problem, you'll probably need to get info from stackexchange or similar
[04:02] <nyceane> ok, gona install windows 10 iot i guess
[04:02] <quidnunc> nyceane: Do you have the latest bios installed?
[04:02] <nyceane> this is straight out of the guide and yet it doesn't work =(
[04:02] <nyceane> quidnunc, yes
[04:02] <nyceane> quidnunc, i just installed it
[04:04] <quidnunc> nyceane: I know, I don't know anything about that architecture
[04:04] <quidnunc> nyceane: Intel community forums are another place you can ask your question
[04:06] <quidnunc> nyceane: According to this thread https://communities.intel.com/thread/110251
[04:06] <quidnunc> the instructions at the top of the page you were reading are obsolete (?)
[04:06] <quidnunc> nyceane: Did you try the instruction at the bottom ("Alternative install"?)
[04:08] <quidnunc> nyceane: Ah, never mind, it's referencing a different thread
[04:11] <quidnunc> nyceane: Anyway, I would try asking your question on the Intel community forums for the Joule, they should have the answers

[04:29] <TheHackOps> then a kernel panic
[04:30] <TheHackOps> Been trying for a couple of days to fix this now and I think i´ve followed just about every guide out ther
[04:30] <TheHackOps> Attempt to read or write outside of disk hd1 is the exact error followed by a you need to load the kernel first
[04:31] <Bashing-om> TheHackOps: "cant read outside of hd1" , Have you looked at the numbers ' sudo fdisk -lu ' .
[04:32] <TheHackOps> You mean from a live cd?
[04:32] <Bashing-om> TheHackOps: Yeah, that too will work . what ever you can boot up to a terminal.
[04:33] <TheHackOps> let me try
[04:37] <TheHackOps> what am i looking for Bashing-om
[04:41] <Bashing-om> TheHackOps: continuity of the numbers, in particular the 1sr number at the end of the 1sr line XXXX sectors allows for the last number in the last line under sectors heading .
[04:41] <Bashing-om> 1st*
[04:42] <Bashing-om> TheHackOps: If ya got a doubt. pastebin and I have a look .
[04:45] <TheHackOps> Bashing-om, https://pastebin.com/JTnnGmXp
[04:46] <Bashing-om> TheHackOps: look'n .
[04:46] <TheHackOps> cheers
[04:52] <Bashing-om> TheHackOps: I see no problem there ( that last nbt us under 'end' rahter than sector heading 0 . Si next is whay us the kernel complaining ? Show in a pasten ' sudo blkid ; cat /etc/fstab '. Make sure of what the kernel is booting .
[05:03] <Bashing-om> TheHackOps: Regrets, I lost connection . ' sudo blkid ; cat /etc/fstab ' ?
[05:09] <Youssarian> What are they going to do for the next version? Three word alliteration?
[05:15] <TheHackOps> Bashing-om, sorry had to do something
[05:15] <Youssarian> what are you all doing now that they are out of letters for ubuntu animals? :)

[05:32] <TheHackOps> :D
[05:35] <jack> for all.. i have a problem for live usb persistence on kali.. "mount failed" can anyone help me?
[05:36] <Winter-Night> hey jack, I am semi retarded when it comes to Ubuntu, so I am no help
[05:36] <thebardian> network CHANNEL ADD -auto #termux
[05:39] <Bashing-om> TheHackOps: No idea of " aufs / aufs rw 0 0 " I have never used such a mount . Comment it out and see if the kernel is then happy ?
[05:39] <wedgie> jack: you're going to want to find a kali channel. this one is for ubuntu support
[05:39] <jack> ok.. Sorry
[05:44] <TheHackOps> Bashing-om, nope
[05:44] <TheHackOps> no good
[05:44] <TheHackOps> Might just reinstall
[05:45] <AndroUser> So this is totally off topic.. but I knee good ol ubuntu would still be an irc  channel. Anyone know of an active s7 edge channel? Or related. I can't find one..
[05:46] <AndroUser> To root. Well I've already rooted it but I want to ask about a recovery. If there is one for 7.0
[05:46] <Bashing-om> TheHackOps: Well, I am surprised . http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2013/05/linux-aufs/ as my reference .
[05:48] <alexubuntu> I've got Cinnamon 3.0 installed on Ubuntu 16.04, and the background is black.  I disabled nautilus and enabled Nemo.  When I try to change wallpaper, the pictures folder is empty
[05:48] <alexubuntu> Seems like other people have had this problem, is there a solution?
[06:27] <tehmal> Hi guys. What about you think about btrfs for / or /home?
[06:30] <lotuspsychje> !btrfs | tehmal
[06:30] <tehmal> !xfs
[06:31] <ducasse> tehmal: i use it on / and for lxc containers.
[06:31] <tehmal> hmm i have btrfs for / :> works perfecly, im only ask :>
[06:31] <YankDownUnder> I used to *thrive* on ReiserFS...until, well...things went kinda "south"...was great...IN it's day...
[06:32] <tehmal> its sense XFS for /home?
[06:32] <tehmal> or better stay on ext4
[06:33] <YankDownUnder> I resisted ext4 - until I encountered some issues on a server and had to recover data...THEN ext4 became my "hero"...and default...
[06:35] <ducasse> tehmal: as long as you have working backups, test whatever filesystem you want. ext4 is good in case you need to recover something, though.
[06:36] <lotuspsychje> YankDownUnder: we told you several times to use #ubuntu-discuss for personal experiences
[06:38] <YankDownUnder> lotuspsychje: Have I somehow in the course of the past 20 years caused an issue with you? In more than 10 years of using this channel, I've not really been accosted as much as the past four days...
[06:39] <lotuspsychje> YankDownUnder: i hope you udnerstand if 1800 users will share their experiences here, it will be a big mess
[06:41] <ACCBiggz> Hey, guys! I'm trying to fix a runtime error for a game I'm running through wine and need "ovsbooleancontrols.ocx". Anyone know where I can get it?
[06:41] <YankDownUnder> lotuspsychje: I *do* understand. And I have SEEN chaos. Many times. I'd not infiltrate situations to cause more, nor wish to. I spent years "op'ing"...I enjoy my retirement with a smile, my friend.
[06:42] <ducasse> !wine | ACCBiggz
[06:44] <YankDownUnder> ACCBiggz: You could always get the .OCX from an existing Windows installation - if you've got one...
[06:44] <ACCBiggz> I do not, unfortunately, YankDownUnder.
[06:44] <YankDownUnder> ACCBiggz: http://www.fixoserror.com/fix-ovsbooleancontrols-ocx-missing-not-registered-error-step-by-step.html
[06:45] <tehmal> Guys, what u think about Unity → Gnome conversion by Canonical ? Im tried GNome 3, but is useless for me and panels are too big... =C
[06:46] <lotuspsychje> !flavors | tehmal
[06:47] <YankDownUnder> tehmal: If there are conflicts in the GTK3 libraries, some stuff will seem "oversized" or "large" - and fonts will be screwed as well...
[06:47] <rodrigot23> does anybody know of a screen capture program that can take a scapshot of a whole webpage?

[06:48] <rodrigot23> freddyp: that would just crop out a portion
[06:48] <rodrigot23> i want the whole template
[06:48] <Ben64> do it a bunch, then stitch together
[06:49] <freddyP> no it snaps the window you are focussed on
[06:49] <rodrigot23> are you certain
[06:50] <freddyP> my bad only the visible part of the webpage
[06:50] <rodrigot23> sucks
[06:50] <rodrigot23> all the resources online are out dated
[06:51] <lotuspsychje> rodrigot23: make a movie out of it with kazam?
[06:51] <lotuspsychje> rodrigot23: slowly scroll your webpage down, as you record it?
[06:51] <YankDownUnder> rodrigot23: Are you merely after the page(s) to create a template?
[06:52] <rodrigot23> no its not pages its just one template i finished
[06:52] <freddyP> print it to pdf
[06:54] <lotuspsychje> good idea freddyP
[06:54] <YankDownUnder> rodrigot23: apt search httrack ==> it's an app that will d/l the entire site for you.
[07:06] <lotuspsychje> morning alkisg
[07:07] <alkisg> Morning lotuspsychje, morning all :)
[07:14] <kerash> does anyone here know if its possible to connect to webchat.freenode.net with weechat?
[07:15] <dax> kerash: no, you'd connect to chat.freenode.net instead
[07:17] <kerash> dax: ok, I'll  give that a try, thanks
[07:18] <dax> kerash: although it looks like that's what you're currently doing, directly or otherwise...
[07:18] <dax> irc.ubuntu.com is just a pointer to chat.freenode.net, if that's the confusion here
[07:20] <kerash> dax: the confusion for me has two parts. Firstly the fact that webchat.freenode.net - I guess - may send output to my weechat in HTML - second is that it seems the connect to the #letsencrypt channel uses SSL
[07:20]  * dax tilts head
[07:20] <Ben64> kerash: channels can't use ssl...
[07:21] <dax> kerash: have you tried just doing /join #letsencrypt
[07:21] <dax> Ben64: they can be set to require it. nobody sane does that though
[07:21] <dax> (i.e., if you don't have umode +Z it won't let you join)
[07:21] <Ben64> +cnt
[07:21] <dax> indeed.
[07:22] <kerash> dax: yes I
[07:23] <kerash> dax:  tried /join #letsencryt it seems to generate some meta message, but doesn't seem to show a real channel
[07:24] <dax> I don't see any reason why it would stop you from joining. Try again and let me know the "meta message" if it still doesn't work.
[07:24] <Ben64> Apr 16 2017 00:21:26 *	kerash (~michael@203-114-132-104.dyn.inspire.net.nz) has joined #letsencrypt
[07:24] <kerash> dax: ok, I'll try again
[07:24] <Ben64> sure looks like  you joined
[07:47] <c0mrade> What's the difference between openjdk, oraclejdk and java and jre, can someone explain?
[07:48] <dax> jdk = what programmers use, jre = what users need to run programs
[07:48] <dax> openjdk is an open source java implementation, oracle has/had a closed-source one but I think it's getting phased out
[07:49] <selckin> openjdk & oracle share 95% of the code, but they will always have a cosed one
[07:50] <c0mrade> isn't java opensource anyway?
[07:50] <c0mrade> Or what's the deal here?
[07:50] <luxgeek> Hey all, first timer. Having a problem a problem installing mysql-server on a fresh install of ubuntu 16.04 - says package is broken. Any idea how I can fix it? Doing "fix broken packages" in synaptics dowsn't work
[07:50] <ikonia> luxgeek: pastebin the error
[07:51] <luxgeek> ikonia, here you go: https://pastebin.com/XjgL8heA
[07:51] <dax> c0mrade: openjdk is. oracle's crap is not
[07:52] <ikonia> luxgeek: could you pastebin the full command with full output please
[07:52] <ikonia> that would be more helpful,
[07:52] <kerash> luxgeek: probably not what you want to hear, but I have had the same problem with mysql-server or (mariadb-server) twice in the last year, in both cases I  re-installed ubuntu
[07:53] <luxgeek> ikonia, Um...was doing it from the synaptics package manager gui so not sure how to get the "full command"
[07:53] <ikonia> ahh
[07:53] <luxgeek> ikonia, lol
[07:53] <ikonia> luxgeek: ok - so lets do this from the command line to get better debug, would that be ok ?
[07:54] <luxgeek> ikonia, WAIT! Try this: https://pastebin.com/0j70LiXZ I had forgotten that I DID try it from a cli :P
[07:55] <luxgeek> ikonia, not my first time around the block...just first time using ubuntu specifically. I have usually used mint but thought I'd give it a try :)
[07:56] <ikonia> luxgeek: you have installed mariadb ?
[07:56] <luxgeek> ikonia, No, is it required? It seemed that trying to install mysql-server it automatically removed the mariadb stuff
[07:57] <luxgeek> ikonia, iirc
[07:57] <ikonia> it looks like you installed maria db and still have it installed
[07:57] <ikonia> Aborting downgrade from (at least) 10.0 to 5.7.
[07:57] <luxgeek> ikonia, Ah, wierd but I CAN fix that I think.
[07:59] <luxgeek> ikonia, So, you think it will install prop if I can get the mariadb stuff out?
[07:59] <ikonia> luxgeek: do you remember installing maria or another mysql version ?
[07:59] <ikonia> luxgeek: it shouldn't be too hard to clean up, just need to understand what you did to get the best way to clean it
[08:00] <luxgeek> ikonia, Yeah (egg on face) it was a slip of the mouse I didn't catch fast enough :P
[08:00] <ikonia> luxgeek: it's not a problem, no need for egg
[08:00] <blackbird1> Hi, since yesterday I have this problem when I execute a simple python script using opencv: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24392423/
[08:00] <ikonia> luxgeek: so how I suggest you do this is do an apt-get update to get your metadata up to date
[08:00] <ikonia> luxgeek: remove the mariadb packages (including client)
[08:01] <ikonia> luxgeek: remove the mysql cached packages from the failed install
[08:01] <ikonia> luxgeek: then try to install again
[08:01] <blackbird1> I intsalled opencv-3.0.2 with modules opencv_contrib-3.2.0
[08:02] <ikonia> could a staff member look at the user c0mrade please he's using his account/cloak to evade a ban, maybe just give him a nudge and advice he to leave the channel and talk to operators when they are active if he wants the ban removed
[08:04] <luxgeek> ikonia, Ok, tried again after cleaning up: https://pastebin.com/NpXpWugf  <-- the still sad results :/
[08:04] <luxgeek> ikonia, back in a min
[08:04] <rud0lf> please help: i messed something with files (manually compiled and installed gpg-error, i thought it was missing), and now i have this message: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24392428/
[08:04] <rud0lf> apt install --reinstall libgpg-error0 didn't help :(
[08:05] <ikonia> luxgeek: Aborting downgrade from (at least) 10.0 to 5.7.
[08:05] <ikonia> luxgeek: you've not removed the maria/other mysql stuff
[08:06] <blackbird1> rud0lf: try this ==> https://askubuntu.com/questions/624486/libgpg-error-so-0-no-version-information-available
[08:06] <rud0lf> thank you
[08:06] <luxgeek> ikonia, I, again, used the gui to do the removal and cli to install...ok, I'll have to mess with it again tomorrow (after 3am here ) Thanks.
[08:07] <ikonia> luxgeek: come back when you want to work it through and we can work it through
[08:07] <luxgeek> ikonia, wasn't sure where that was coming from
[08:07] <ikonia> (or someone else in the channel will)
[08:07] <rud0lf> worked like a charm.. i've had extra library in /usr/lib
[08:07] <luxgeek> ikonia, Thanks much :)
[08:07] <blackbird1> rud0lf: ;)
[08:15] <danboid> I tried intalling (MATE) 17.04 last night, alongside W10 UEFI after disabling secure boot. Install seemed to go fine and GRUB seemed to install without errors but I didn't get a GRUB menu after rebooting. It just booted straight into W10. Known bug?
[08:15] <alkisg> danboid: also mention that you saw apt/dpkg errors and memory issues :)
[08:16] <danboid> Not entirely true - there as a vague error right at the end of install about "Some packages needing to be reinstalled" but it ddn't say which
[08:17] <danboid> and as alkisg says, I also say lots of ubiquity warnings/messages relating to memory. Balancing RAM or something?
[08:17] <danboid> The laptop has 4GB RAM and a 1TB HD
[08:17] <danboid> Space/ RAM should not be an issue
[08:17] <jeff-rpi> using raspberry pi to chat, this is awesome
[08:18] <jeff-rpi> if only the on screen k3yboard had swipe gestures
[08:18] <danboid> Has anyoe tried installing 17.04 onto a XFS partition alongsie W10?
[08:19] <danboid> which is what I did
[08:19] <danboid> I disabled secure boot first, btw
[08:23] <danboid> Ohhh! I wonder if Windows fast startup is hiding the GRUB menu fromm us?
[08:24] <ikonia> why would it
[08:24] <danboid> Is that possible?
[08:24] <ikonia> if it's booting windows it's already gone past grub
[08:24] <danboid> Yeah, just clutching at straws there
[08:24] <ikonia> danboid: how many disks are in your system
[08:24] <danboid> 1
[08:24] <danboid> 1 1TB HD
[08:25] <ikonia> where did you install grub,
[08:25] <danboid> ubiquity doesnt give you an option so sda
[08:25] <ikonia> it does
[08:25] <ikonia> and it seems more likley from what you are saying you installed it to a partition or it didn't install at all rather than sda
[08:25] <danboid> No it doesn't. I chose "Install alongside Windows bootloader" which is te nearest it gets to asking
[08:26] <ikonia> danboid: it does ask you, it depends on the menu choices you go though
[08:26] <selckin> depends if its use EUFI or bios boot
[08:27] <ikonia> thats a good point too,
[08:27] <danboid> I chose custom partitionig but never saw a GRUB install option
[08:27] <ikonia> but even with bios
[08:27] <danboid> UEFI
[08:27] <danboid> w/ secure boot tirmed off
[08:28] <selckin> i'm new to EUFI aswel but in the bios/uefi i added grub next to the windwos bootloader off the EUFI partition, so my boot menu is the bios menu (that then loads grub or windows)
[08:29] <danboid> I didn't check the BIOS after install but having to boot via the BIOS sounds messy. I'd prefer GRUB
[08:29] <blackbird1> libopencv_contrib.so.2.4 doesn't exist in /usr/local/lib, what can I do please ?
[08:29] <danboid> messy/fiddly
[08:29] <ikonia> it doesn't boot to the bios
[08:30] <selckin> then you have to change the eufi from the windows one to grub in the bios
[08:30] <selckin> at least in mine you literly give is a path to the bootloader on the eufi parition
[08:30] <lotuspsychje> blackbird1: tell us the whole story please, what are you trying to do/install?
[08:31] <blackbird1> lotuspsychje, I intsalled opencv-3.0.2 with modules opencv_contrib-3.2.0
[08:32] <blackbird1> lotuspsychje,  since yesterday I have this problem when I execute a simple python script using opencv: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24392423/
[08:32] <danboid> selckin, I've never had to do such a thing. Ubiquity didn't warn me of having to do anything like that, beyond disabling secure boot
[08:32] <cobracyborg> hello. i'm typing password in chromium-browser and receiveing this msg in terminal:  [1:1:0416/113108.090812:ERROR:KeyboardEventManager.cpp(427)] Not implemented reached in static bool blink::KeyboardEventManager::currentCapsLockState()
[08:34] <lotuspsychje> blackbird1: can this help? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12335848/opencv-program-compile-error-libopencv-core-so-2-4-cannot-open-shared-object-f
[08:34] <danboid> I have dual-boot installed buntu with W10 before on UEFI but GRUB functioned as usual, no UEFI path entering was required but maybe this is a system/UEFI specific quirk?
[08:34] <lotuspsychje> blackbird1: or this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/165027/why-cant-my-program-find-the-libraries-in-usr-local-lib
[08:35] <blackbird1> Sorry, it doesn't lotuspsychje
[08:35] <selckin> danboid: you can use efibootmgr to configure it, or do it manual in the bios, you will see it has paths to bootloader file
[08:35] <selckin> danboid: see example output here https://www.happyassassin.net/2014/01/25/uefi-boot-how-does-that-actually-work-then/
[08:36] <danboid> efibootmgr is on the Ubuntu install discs is it?
[08:36] <selckin> yeah just boot off a live cd
[08:40] <selckin> danboid: for example on a dell 'http://www.dell.com/support/article/gu/en/gudhs1/SLN297060/xps-13-9343--how-to-install-ubuntu-developer-edition-1404-on-a-dell-pc-configured-for-the-unified-extensible-firmware-interface--uefi--bios?lang=EN'
[08:40] <selckin> danboid: you'll have an entry like that for windows
[08:40] <selckin> danboid: then add one where you pick the "grub" file
[08:42] <selckin> requires the installer to have installed for eufi and not "legacy" ofc
[08:42] <ducasse> danboid: very likely you can just edit the boot order, an entry should already be there
[08:43] <selckin> else you'll have to install grub aswel
[08:52] <blackbird1> Guys I don't know what to do, I tried evry that I found on Google, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24392423/
[08:56] <ducasse> blackbird1: install libopencv-contrib2.4v5

[09:00] <lotuspsychje> !nvidia | Zoe__
[09:01] <Zoe__> nvidia gt745m at 16.04
[09:04] <blackbird1> In all sites, the answer is to add:  "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/usr/local/lib" in ~./bashrc (and reboot)
[09:04] <blackbird1> but it doesn't work for me :/
[09:05] <code_witch> anyone familiar with x264 here?
[09:05] <ducasse> code_witch: ask your question
[09:06] <code_witch> I am trying to encode a video into h264/AVC. The command which does it has an input file parameter which is not taking in input file even though i specified the name
[09:06] <code_witch>  It gives me this error: x264 [error]: No input file. Run x264 --help for a list of options.
[09:07] <code_witch> What is the workaround here?
[09:08] <MonkeyDust> code_witch  hint, gui: winff
[09:08] <Zoe__> system wait at nvidia gfx driver update for few hours;(附加驱动页面）

[09:11] <fps> hi for some reason kde doesn't suspend after the set time while on mains power on my laptop
[09:11] <fps> it does on battery though
[09:12] <fps> argh, i just noticed that in the power settings the combobox to select the action had none of the three entries selected
[09:12] <MonkeyDust> fps  gla i could help
[09:13] <MonkeyDust> glad*
[09:13] <fps> you're welcome
[09:14] <fps> i guess it's a kde bug. the combobox has no "none" or empty option so one of the three choices should always be selected
[09:17] <blackbird1> ducasse, lotuspsychje probelm resoved by removing libopencv-contrib2.4v5 and reinstall it
[09:21] <lotuspsychje> !yay | blackbird1
[09:22] <jatt> ufw is not allowing me to mount a cifs share, even after sudo ufw allow Samba
[09:22] <jatt> what could be the issue
[09:26] <Ben64> jatt: how do you know it's ufw
[09:29] <YankDownUnder> jatt: Just wondering - did you specifically make sure the proper ports were opened - not just a generalised "Samba" yadda yadda yadda?
[09:29] <immu> i got the following issue with my respositories http://paste.ubuntu.com/24392709/
[09:29] <YankDownUnder> jatt: CIFS uses UDP ports 137 and 138, and TCP ports 139 and 445.
[09:29] <immu> duplication
[09:30] <immu> how do i reset my repo sources
[09:30] <immu> ducasse:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/24392709/
[09:30] <Ben64> immu: open the file and remove the duplicate lines
[09:32] <cfhowlett> immu rebuild with this:  https://repogen.simplylinux.ch/index.php
[09:34] <jatt> YankDownUnder: thanks for the info, will check the status of those ports
[09:35] <YankDownUnder> jatt: Cheers, mate. Double check...always a good thing.
[09:35] <jatt> when I do sudo ufw app list there is a profile called Samba and that's the one I activated, I was hoping it will allow access to the proper ports
[09:36] <YankDownUnder> jatt: For as much as I trust "software", I personally prefer to "do it by hand" - just to make sure...peace.
[09:40] <faugusztin> jatt: are you sure it is ufw blocking you ?
[09:42] <azizLIGHT> best way to get files off cds/dvds for archiving? some are scratched up cds
[09:42] <azizLIGHT> data files on the discs
[09:42] <undead> read them?
[09:43] <cfhowlett> azizLIGHT, exact audio copy *EAC*
[09:43] <azizLIGHT> they have that on linux? i thought that was a audio program
[09:43] <azizLIGHT> im looking to get data files off the discs
[09:43] <azizLIGHT> does eac handle that
[09:43] <cfhowlett> EAC will rip data
[09:44] <cfhowlett> windows / OSX only but you can pipe it through wine
[09:45] <azizLIGHT> thanks, ill try that
[09:45] <jatt> faugusztin: yes, once I stop ufw I can mount the cifs share
[09:49] <faugusztin> jatt: and what does ufw status verbose says when you have ufw enabled with that Samba rule ?
[09:51] <faugusztin> jatt: i also hope you did ufw reload when applying a new rule
[09:54] <immu> Ben64, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24392709/ ya sorry got issue with web based IRC so installed from software center

[10:03] <danboid> selckin, No luck yet
[10:03] <danboid> selckin, We tried efibootmgr and bcdedit with no joy
[10:04] <lotuspsychje> danboid: wait for eric^^ to join, he's our uefi specialist
[10:04] <danboid> I may end up having to re-install everything in legacy boot bios mode
[10:05] <ducasse> danboid: can you pastebin output of 'sudo efibootmgr -v'?
[10:05] <selckin> did an entry for grub already exists?
[10:06] <danboid> ducasse, I'd ave to ask my friend to log in ht get that. Ive been helping him over the phone
[10:06] <fearnothing> hi, I had splunk installed, and later removed it, now whenever I log in I have an error saying /opt/splunk can't be found. How do I figure out where this option is being called so I can remove it?
[10:06] <fearnothing> it's not .bashrc, I've checked that
[10:06] <selckin> grep -r splunk /etc
[10:06] <danboid> I avoid both Windows and EFI whenever I can :)
[10:06] <fearnothing> selckin - no results :(
[10:07] <BluesKaj> 'Morning folks
[10:08] <fearnothing> the exact error is "-bash: =/opt/splunk: No such file or directory"
[10:08] <danboid> Is there not a "grub-customizer" of EFI? I suppose thats not possible due to lack of true standardisation, is it?
[10:10] <selckin> what would that do
[10:10] <immu> selckin, can you switch to legacy mode please in your bios and install ubuntu
[10:10] <selckin> nein
[10:11] <immu> BluesKaj, hey buddy need help in cleaning up my sources.file
[10:11] <ducasse> danboid: we really need to see some output to be able to help
[10:11] <immu> BluesKaj, check this http://paste.ubuntu.com/24392709/
[10:12] <immu> i had to reinstall Ubuntu, due to boot failure
[10:12] <ducasse> immu: the errors tells you exactly what lines are causing the problems, just comment out the duplicates
[10:12] <bazhang> immu, you were given a link to get a fresh one
[10:12] <cfhowlett> https://repogen.simplylinux.ch/index.php
[10:12] <immu> bazhang, i missed that one as i got stuck
[10:13] <bazhang> see above immu
[10:13] <danboid> ducasse, of course, I understand.
[10:13] <BluesKaj> immu:  let's see your /etc/apt/soures.list
[10:14] <ducasse> danboid: output of 'sudo ls -lR /boot/efi' would also be helpful
[10:14] <BluesKaj> correction /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:14] <immu> blue let me do a paste bi
[10:14] <bazhang> immu, we have given you two solutions so far

[10:15] <immu> Rackta, 2018 April
[10:15] <danboid> We used a command like `sudo efibootmgr -o 2,1,0` to try to rearrange the EFI boot order
[10:15] <Rackta> immu: Awesome
[10:15] <BluesKaj> ahh, immu if you've already been fiven advice by bazhang then you should follow it
[10:15] <Rackta> Glad they dumped Unity
[10:15] <Rackta> It was cancer

[10:16] <cfhowlett> Rackta, enough. take this jibberjabber over to #ubuntu-offtopic as this channel is for support
[10:17] <aus_mal> Hi, i've found that installing certain software from gnome-software will install whole DE's without warning, is this a bug or something everyone should know?
[10:17] <anchnk> hi, I installed ubuntu with uefi boot and everything works fine, however when my computer boot I got a velvet screen with no information during 10 second
[10:17] <anchnk> before the ubuntu loader shows up.
[10:17] <BluesKaj> velvet screen?
[10:18] <anchnk> I tried to swictch to other running tty but it seens none are running yet anyone faced something similar ?
[10:18] <cfhowlett> aus_mal, not necessarily.  even so, installed DE only invokes if you choose it
[10:18] <immu> cfhowlett, got it, i though you where addressing to some one else , thanks will build now
[10:18] <anchnk> BluesKaj yeah seems it's just the background same as when ubuntu is displayed with loading dots
[10:18] <cfhowlett> happy2help! immu
[10:19] <immu> cfhowlett, thanks once again
[10:19] <aus_mal> cfhowlett: does that mean the DE won't install without my approval?
[10:19] <anchnk> it works but it annoys me not to know what is going on during that step
[10:19] <aus_mal> anchnk: sounds like grub but you said there's no information ?
[10:19] <immu> is this a good place to ask what will happ if i install under UEFI mode?
[10:19] <cfhowlett> aus_mal, it might install but it won't activate unless you choose it.  what program are you installing?
[10:20] <BluesKaj> !UEFI | immu
[10:21] <immu> cfhowlett, the generator doesn't support 17.04 or included
[10:21] <cfhowlett> immu, eh?  wait 1
[10:21] <aus_mal> cfhowlett: just wondering if there was any way to know beforehand if pressing install was gonna install the whole gnome shell or kde
[10:21] <anchnk> aus_mal yeah nothing show up, and yeah I am using grub as a boot loader
[10:21] <aus_mal> or is it safer just not to use gnome-software
[10:22] <cfhowlett> aus_mal, apt-get install -s packagename.      simulation only.  read the output for details
[10:22] <aus_mal> i need to learn to flag! thanks very much sir
[10:23] <cfhowlett> immu, you are correct.  run it for 16.04, the edit>find/replace Xenial with Zesty
[10:23] <immu> cfhowlett, ok
[10:24] <ducasse> immu: or just comment out lines 54, 59, 81 and 90 in the file you have
[10:24] <immu> ducasse, ok
[10:24] <Vbits> My Dell XPS 15 9550 running Ubuntu 17.04 is having issues with the filesystem remounting as read only pretty much randomly.
[10:25] <ducasse> Vbits: anything in dmesg?
[10:26] <tykayn1> hi folks
[10:26] <Vbits> ducasse, I just rebooted after it happened so nothing in dmesg right now. Most of the command line tools can't execute.
[10:26] <tykayn1> any idea why my cinnamon desktop doesnt shows the runing programs in the bar ? ubuntu 16.04 here
[10:27] <MonkeyDust> tykayn1  it's a separate applet, you have to add it
[10:27] <Vbits> *the commands are fine after the reboot but after the filesystem remounts most of the commands won't execute.
[10:28] <tykayn1> oh cool thanks, how do i find it ?
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> tykayn1  ok, right click on the taskbar > add applets > window list
[10:29] <selckin> Vbits: check /var/log/kernl*
[10:29] <tykayn1> ok, nice :)
[10:29] <selckin> Vbits: most likely your disk is broken tho
[10:34] <tomreyn> Vbits: also check the disks health self-assessment data using smartmontools
[10:35] <selckin> Vbits: boot of usb too and run fsck on it
[10:35] <Vbits> selckin, does it help if I say it's an nvme disk and I'm also having issues where the system does not come out of sleep mode? Also I checked /var/log/kern.log and there is nothing interesting.
[10:36] <selckin> Vbits: wll thats the current, you want the previous one from when it happened like .1 (maybe you did)
[10:37] <Vbits> selckin, I looked there as well. What should I be looking for specifically?
[10:38] <selckin> any error or things mentioning your disk
[10:38] <selckin> possible it can't write it because disk is in ro already :)
[10:38] <seeit> hi, i've got a pciex1 riser plugged into the pciex16 slot but it seems to be blocking the network from initializing during boot, any ideas how to fix this?
[10:39] <selckin> what happens exactly?
[10:40] <seeit> the Raise part of the boot fails
[10:40] <seeit> the adapter is listed as enp2s0
[10:41] <seeit> and once booted, if I try to ifup enp2s0 it says it can't be found
[10:41] <seeit> if the pciex1 adapter is plugged into a pciex1 slot there is not problem
[10:41] <selckin> maybe its enp3s now or some other number
[10:41] <seeit> hmm
[10:41] <selckin> 'ip a' to list em
[10:41] <seeit> ok
[10:43] <seeit> ok, listed as enp3s0 now but 'sudo ifup enp3s0' doesn't work
[10:43] <seeit> says Unknown interface
[10:44] <selckin> cat /etc/network/interfaces
[10:45] <Vbits> selckin, nothing in the logs relating to the block device but lines like nvme0n1: p1 p2 p3 when the system boots and lines like systemd-fsck[680]: /dev/nvme0n1p2: clean, 307/124928 files, 157681/499712 blocks
[10:46] <tomreyn> Vbits: you could try https://www.smartmontools.org/wiki/NVMe_Support
[10:47] <seeit> ok editing that file to use the new adapter name worked
[10:48] <seeit> thx
[10:48] <tomreyn> Vbits: or decide not to spend more time on it and just return it, since (unless oyu have some process destroying your file systems) this should not be happening on a (most likely) rather new nvme
[10:50] <tomreyn> Vbits: oh i just noticed you're using hibernation? maybe that's related? does the file system corruption occur if you shut down and boot properly?
[10:51] <Vbits> tomreyn, I'm not experiencing any file-system corruption. Also it's not hibernation it's suspend.
[10:51] <tomreyn> suspend to disk or ram?
[10:52] <immu> ducasse, BluesKaj cfhowlett i used this to a clean source.list file http://paste.ubuntu.com/24393125/
[10:52] <tomreyn> Vbits: "filesystem remounting as read only pretty much randomly." sounds lkike file system corruption to me
[10:53] <cfhowlett> immu, fair enough
[10:53] <Vbits> tomreyn, for smartctl what would a valid nvmelog command be. I've tried sudo smartctl /dev/nvme0n1 -l nvmelog,0,100 and it returns an error
[10:53] <immu> cfhowlett, thanks to all over here for the help.
[10:54] <tomreyn> Vbits: i would not know, never worked with a nvme, yet
[10:54] <Dark_Witcher> Guys, any idea how to fix this error, that I get in my terminal "bash: /etc/profile.d/vte.sh: No such file or directory
[10:54] <Dark_Witcher> "
[10:54] <tomreyn> Vbits: but i suggest you just start with -x
[10:54] <modles> hey all
[10:55] <marvin2> should I be using hard or soft link when linking a directory?
[10:55] <modles> got a strange issue, 16.04 mouse and keyboard connected and showing up in lsusb, but not cursor movement or keyboard input?
[10:55] <selckin> marvin2: always use soft, unless you have a really good reaso
[10:55] <Vbits> tomreyn, Suspend to disk maybe. 1 issue that could come about with that is I have 32GB of ram on the system. https://paste.ubuntu.com/24393134/
[10:56] <Vbits> there's the output of sudo smartctl /dev/nvme0n1 -x
[10:56] <Vbits> tomreyn, The sleep issue happens after 15 minutes of the lid being down while the system is on battery. No issue leaving it down overnight on AC.
[10:58] <tomreyn> Vbits: which issue would 32 GB of RAM introduce?
[10:58] <Dark_Witcher> Guys, any idea how to fix this error, that I get in my terminal "bash: /etc/profile.d/vte.sh: No such file or directory"
[10:58] <Ben64> Dark_Witcher: depends what you're trying to do
[10:59] <ikonia> pretty much says the problem in the error
[10:59] <Dark_Witcher> Ben64, literally nothing, It's just there when I open my terminal and it is annoying
[10:59] <ikonia> that seems unlikley
[10:59] <ikonia> Dark_Witcher: is this your system or a shared one
[10:59] <Dark_Witcher> yep, and I tried fixing it by installing all the vte libraries
[10:59] <Dark_Witcher> mine
[11:00] <tomreyn> Vbits: about the suspend issue, make sure you know whwther you're suspending to ram or disk. maybe look for a firmware upgrade for the device and / or try a newer kernel.
[11:00] <ikonia> why would you install things to fix it
[11:00] <ikonia> Dark_Witcher: so something has put a call to vte.sh in your bash_profile
[11:00] <Vbits> tomreyn, I'm not sure but it came to mind in case the process of suspend exhausts resources.
[11:00] <Dark_Witcher> well, when it says "no such file", you try and give it the file.
[11:00] <ikonia> either a.) put the script there b.) remove the call it
[11:00] <Dark_Witcher> how do I remove the call?
[11:00] <ikonia> that reference doesn't get put in the shell environment automatically
[11:01] <ikonia> Dark_Witcher: look in your bashrc or bash_profile
[11:01] <Vbits> tomreyn, Also it's running up to date firmware and the kernel version is 4.10.0-19-generic
[11:01] <ikonia> look in the skeleton template for your bash profile
[11:01] <ikonia> but it doesn't get added automatically, so you must have done it manually or via a script
[11:01] <tomreyn> Vbits: right you said you'r eon Ubuntu 17.10, that's surely recently enough.
[11:01] <Vbits> tomreyn, I'm on 17.04
[11:03] <michael__> hallo
[11:03] <freddyP> hej
[11:03] <Dark_Witcher> ikonia, fix it. turns out the vte file was there, it just had a version number in its name.
[11:03] <Dark_Witcher> ty ^_^
[11:05] <tomreyn> Vbits: according to this thread it's possible that your bios' fakeraid scrambles your file systems https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=204629
[11:05] <tomreyn> "I was able to solve the issue by switching the SATA Operation from 'RAID' to 'AHCI' in the BIOS"
[11:06] <Vbits> tomreyn, I had to do that during the initial setup and the option is still set like that.
[11:07] <selckin> i have the same laptop, but i've been disabling suspend for 15 years since it never worked
[11:07] <selckin> </no help>
[11:08] <tomreyn> Vbits: right that's what i would suggest, too - run it without suspend to disk for now, see if it helps stabilizing iz.
[11:08] <tomreyn> *iT
[11:08] <zzzoid> how can I get ubuntu working with MacBook pro int english keyboard - non of the built in mappings work
[11:09] <Vbits> tomreyn, Ok how would I disable that?
[11:10] <tomreyn> Vbits: in energy settings. and then you just shutdown properly instead of putting the system to sleep.
[11:10] <Vbits> also I compiled the latest version of smartmontools and the SMART test passed.
[11:11] <Vbits> tomreyn, I'm using Gnome 3 and the power control panel does not have that setting.
[11:12] <tomreyn> hmm i'm not into Gnome3, sorry
[11:13] <sarcastico> hello! Good Morning.
[11:13] <modles> am i missing something really dumb to enable mouse and keyboard?
[11:14] <modles> show up in lsusb but no control. stardard logitec usb set
[11:21] <Vbits> How would I query information about power states?
[11:26] <wilsonreuben> Help, usb dongle not showing up
[11:29] <freddyP> is it a wifi dongle ?
[11:30] <freddyP> wilsonreuben, any clues ?  what kind of dongle ? where are you looking ?
[11:31] <c0mrade> Hey I've executed a command on my server and I lost ssh connection to it, I logged back in executed tha command again and seeing something that waiting for lock... so I suspect it's still running, but how can I see the progress again?
[11:33] <freddyP> ps -aux | less
[11:36] <kerash> I thought once you lost an ssh connection, all children processes of that ssh parent would recieve a shutdown signal - unless you explicitly started the process using the '&' operator
[11:39] <c0mrade> I didn't...
[11:40] <marvin2> mv Dirname dirname did not work, I had to name it dirname2 first, then dirname. how come?
[11:41] <marvin2> maybe related that this is mounted ntfs drive, but it should still work
[11:42] <w9qbj> marvin2: "windows" doesn't know the difference between Upper and lower case - so Dirname and dirname were seen as the same
[11:43] <w9qbj> marvin2: and ntfs drive is a "windows os" type drive
[11:43] <marvin2> windows doesn't make a difference between upper and lower case, but it does keep track of case names
[11:43] <connorlanigan> Hi! I just set up Ubuntu on a computer. It has a problem with the sound though: I have connected headphones to the headphone port and a guitar amplifier to the line-in-port. The headphones play a youtube-video just fine, but as soon as there is any sound on the line-in, the output of the computer is completely muted, until I pull the line-in jack out of the computer. This can be repeated infinitely. Can you give me a suggestion
[11:44] <ducasse> marvin2: that is how you need to do it on ntfs drives in linux, afaik
[11:47] <w9qbj> c0mrade: the unless a process shutdowns 'gracefully' the lock file maynot be rm'd. you may  have to find that file and rm it yourself - probably in /var/lock/ but not always.
[11:51] <Carcus> Hello!
[11:52] <marvin2> how can I find out what architecture executable was compiled for?
[11:52] <Ben64> file executable
[11:53] <Carcus> I am having an issue where the login screen on Kubuntu 17.04 on startup. If I go to a TTY and run init 3 then init 5 the logon screen loads fine. It is just on initial startup.
[11:54] <Carcus> Any ideas? thanks
[11:54] <Ben64> init 3 and 5 should do absolutely nothing, unless they changed something recently
[11:54] <marvin2> Ben64 thanks
[11:57] <Carcus> sudo init 3 seems to stop something then sudo init 5 restarts the gui startup process. Obviosuly im new at this so I am really at a loss as to where to even start looking for the issue.
[11:59] <Ben64> Carcus: did you install ubuntu server or something
[11:59] <Carcus> Fresh install of Kubuntu 17.04 desktop
[12:00] <k1l_> Carcus: what video card do you have there? what video driver?
[12:01] <Carcus> GTX 980 with latest Nvidia drivers
[12:01] <Carcus> i think it only happens when im using 2 monitors
[12:01] <k1l_> latest nvidia drivers from where=
[12:01] <Carcus> id have to check again
[12:01] <Carcus> through the ubuntu drivers app
[12:01] <k1l_> so from the ubuntu repos. ok.
[12:01] <wilsonreuben> "freddyP: is it a wifi dongle ?" it (hauwei)
[12:01] <Carcus> yup
[12:03] <k1l_> i dont use kubuntu and dont use their displaymanager sddm(the login screen). so i cant tell you if that got issues with dual monitor setups. the lightdm works fine with dualmonitor setups
[12:03] <joka> xissa
[12:03] <joka> i'm not sure whats going one but all of the http://pt.archive.ubuntu.com repos are down
[12:03] <joka> they're unable to connect
[12:04] <Carcus> it was working fine under Ubuntu so it could be a sddm issue. thanks ill look in that direction
[12:04] <k1l_> joka: that url is hanging here, too. maybe ask in #ubuntu-mirrors so the admins know about
[12:05] <k1l_> joka: in the meantime you can switch to the main servers in the system settings to be able to load the updates
[12:05] <joka> mmm how do i do that fam ?
[12:05] <joka> oh right, graphically
[12:06] <k1l_> joka: systemsettings -> updates and software -> then you can change the mirror there
[12:06] <joka> ok thanks for the help
[12:11] <ArchaicLord> wow thats a lot of people. Hi all
[12:15] <ArchaicLord> Hi all, ok, so I am due to start work for an employer who uses linux as the desktop.
[12:16] <ArchaicLord> I am looking at i3wm and some other things and wondering if bitbucket is best place to store config files rahter than publicly on Git
[12:20] <coajaxial> Hello ubuntu users :) When I update my 16.04.2 machine via dist-upgrade, it always installs the 4.4 kernel, but im actually running the 4.8 hwe stack. after upgrade and system reboot, I can remove the 4.4 kernel with autoremove again. Is this normal?
[12:22] <zfone> hello
[12:22] <zfone> 大家好
[12:23] <k1l_> coajaxial: so you got both meta packages installed? can you please run "apt policy linux-generic linux-generic-hwe-16.04 | nc termbin.com 9999" and show the url here?
[12:23] <k1l_> !cn | zfone
[12:24] <coajaxial> l1l_: http://termbin.com/3hmx
[12:24] <k1l_> coajaxial: hmm, please run "dpkg -l | grep linux-image | nc termbin.com 9999"
[12:25] <zfone> what？
[12:25] <coajaxial> http://termbin.com/k32q
[12:25] <zfone> nice to meet you
[12:26] <coajaxial> k1l_: As i said, it always reinstalls the 4.4 kernel after a while when i do a dist-upgrade, and after reboot when i do apt-get autoremove, it wants to remove it again
[12:26] <k1l_> coajaxial: ok, remove the "linux-image-generic" package. that pulls the 4.4 kernel in.
[12:27] <immu> how many use skype here?
[12:29] <coajaxial> k1l_; ok, but thats some strange behavior, isnt it? I mean why does it always want so install it and then say its garbage afterwards?
[12:29] <cfhowlett> immu, useless question.  state YOUR issue and specifications
[12:29] <k1l_> immu: do you really want all 1790 users to answer that question? :) better ask the technical question you got
[12:30] <muhammet> s.a
[12:30] <k1l_> coajaxial: because you got a wrong package installed. that is why
[12:30] <ThetaOrionis> .ubottu
[12:31] <coajaxial> k1l_ its actually a clean 16.04.2 install (but its xubuntu *hide*) i have the same behavior on other PCs too
[12:31] <muhammet> tukish help cannel
[12:31] <cfhowlett> !turkish | muhammet
[12:31] <ThetaOrionis>  /exit
[12:31] <muhammet> yes
[12:31] <k1l_> coajaxial: did you isntall the HWE (4.8) kernel yourself or was it installed from the first place?
[12:32] <muhammet> ok
[12:33] <zzzoid> how can I get ubuntu working with MacBook pro int english keyboard - non of the built in mappings work
[12:34] <coajaxial> k1l_: Its a fresh 16.04.2 install ( so 4.8 should be preinstalled). But i can remember that my ansible script to provision my machines has a task to install the hwe stack manually. But it actually did nothing (ansible said it was already installed, so it skipped that task)
[12:35] <coajaxial> k1l_: But anyway, so uninstalling the linux-image-generic will remove the 4.4 kernel u say? I guess the linux-generic-hwe-16.04 package is the replacement then, right?
[12:35] <k1l_> coajaxial: so get to look at your scripts if it pulls the linux-image-generic packge in (which is the 4.4 kernel) . because a original ubuntu install will not do that.
[12:40] <coajaxial> k1l_: in the script there is following: "ensure xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04 is installed with --install-recommends". That was before 16.04.2 came out. In the ubuntu wiki they stated that would enable the hwe stack. But they even changed the command later to "apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-16.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04 ". Well i guess i can get rid of this task then and uninstall the linux-im
[12:41] <coajaxial> k1l_: btw, here for reference: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[12:41] <k1l_> coajaxial: i know about hwe :) but i am not sure what your and some 3rd party scripts do to the original ubuntu image. since it does not isntall 4.4 kernel and 4.8 kernel image at the same time
[12:41] <freddyP> wilsonreuben, sorry i was away afk, wifi dongles are hit and miss depending on their chipsets.  ralink chipsets have never let me down on any platform.
[12:42] <implite> I wish we could upgrade the operating system without having to reboot or install a whole new iso
[12:43] <implite> maybe we can do this and im not aware?
[12:43] <coajaxial> k1l_: wait a second, i have a clean install of 16.04.2 (xubuntu) without my provision on virtualbox, i can check what is installed there and what happens when i do dist-upgrade
[12:44] <k1l_> implite: updates work without reboot if you use the live patching service from canonical.
[12:44] <coajaxial> k1l_: oh, no sry, uname says its 16.04.1 :(
[12:45] <coajaxial> k1l_: nvm, i guess im happy with the answers u provided. I'll try uninstalling the linux-image-generic later :)
[12:47] <coajaxial> k1l_: thx, and  bye :)
[12:47] <k1l_> :)
[12:47] <implite> more like thanks and see you later ;)
[12:47] <implite> I hate bye's
[12:48] <Prutheus> Hello! I am working with GTK and libappindicator ... however, I want to change the icon of the indicator in my program dynamically ... like this: https://ghostbin.com/paste/jt9wd  but this is not working, how to solve my problem?
[12:51] <tomreyn> !ot | Prutheus
[12:52] <tomreyn> that's more of a gtk (development) question, i think they have their own irc channels (maybe on a different network)
[12:52] <implite> ya i was going to say that also
[12:52] <Prutheus> gtk guys have send me to ubuntu cause libappindicator is ubuntu related
[12:53] <implite> ubuntu-dev ?
[12:53] <implite> #ubuntu-dev is the channel i think
[12:53] <immu> since Skype is outside Ubuntu, package wanted to know if their any issues
[12:54] <tomreyn> Prutheus: oh right, try #ubuntu-app-devel then

[13:24] <alberto> Hello, everyone.
[13:25] <alberto> Can anybody please tell me how to permanently disable Wi-Fi in Ubuntu 17.04?
[13:26] <ioria> alberto, ifdown your wifi interface ?
[13:26] <faugusztin> remove the wifi card ?
[13:26] <ioria> lol
[13:26] <immu> kick your pc
[13:27] <alberto> Hahaha, I mean permanently.
[13:27] <alberto> Automatically.
[13:28] <ioria> alberto,  sudo ifconfig mywifi_interface down from cli, ot check NM and uncheck in General tab 'Connect Aumatically'
[13:28] <MrX1337> wget http://mrx1337.3x.ro/mrx1337
[13:28] <MrX1337> hello
[13:29] <faugusztin> ioria: blacklist the module used by the wifi card
[13:29] <faugusztin> ioria: then the kernel won't detect it at all
[13:29] <ioria> faugusztin, sounds extreme, but yes :)
[13:30] <Optimus_Prime> how to terminal to quick lauch?
[13:30] <Optimus_Prime> got it
[13:30] <ioria> Optimus_Prime,  pin it in Launcher ?
[13:33] <alberto> I actually need to disable the Wi-Fi interface forever, so that I won't have to uncheck the "Enable Wireless" option in the network drop-down menu every time I log into Ubuntu. (I use Ubuntu-Mate)
[13:34] <faugusztin> alberto: 1) remove the wifi from your computer 2) blacklist the device driver
[13:36] <ioria> alberto, Delete the wifi connection from NM; click on Network Icon -> Edit Connection -> Delete
[13:36] <alberto> ioria It only appears "Wired connection" there
[13:37] <ioria> alberto,  cat /etc/network/interfaces
[13:38] <alberto> https://pastebin.com/gE3NdA0i
[13:38] <ioria> alberto,  no wifi,  paset 'ip a'
[13:38] <ioria> *paste
[13:39] <alberto> https://pastebin.com/HXUeKiw6
[13:40] <ioria> alberto,  wlp2s0 is your wifi, and the state is  Dormant
[13:41] <ioria> alberto,  sudo ip link set wlp2s0  down   and check again  'ip a'
[13:41] <alberto> ok
[13:43] <alberto> https://pastebin.com/dPenQ83S
[13:43] <ioria> alberto,  now it's down
[13:45] <alberto> It's very strange, cause I click on the top panel network icon and the drop-down menu includes an option which says "Enable Wireless", which is checked.
[13:46] <alberto> I wouldn't want to have to uncheck that every time I log in.
[13:50] <sopparus> hello, I want to give my own user permission to reload nginx, can I do that?
[13:50] <faugusztin> alberto: why do you need to disable wireless anyway ? it's not like it is used for anything unless you join an AP ?
[13:50] <sopparus> its for scripting so sudo wont help
[13:51] <faugusztin> sopparus: sudo without password without that command ?
[13:51] <alberto> faugusztin I have a wired connection which works well, so I don't need the wireless to be enabled.
[13:51] <sopparus> but it will ask for password? also i have uninstalled sudo :)
[13:52] <faugusztin> sopparus: haven't i just said use without password ? http://jeromejaglale.com/doc/unix/ubuntu_sudo_without_password
[13:53] <alberto> I found something on the internet: by adding the line "rfkill block wifi" to /etc/rc.local you can manage to permanently disable wireless. However, the file doesn't exist in Ubuntu 17.04
[13:53] <faugusztin> sopparus: you can limit it to specific commands if required (instead of ALL)
[13:53] <sopparus> ah yeah
[13:53] <sopparus> ok ill install sudo again then, thanks
[13:54] <finn_> opu

[14:03] <luxgeek> I'm having trouble installing mysql-server because, it seems, I had inadvertently installed some part of mariadb, I attempted to unsintall the mariadb stuff but mysql-server still won't install. Anyone have any ideas on what I can do?
[14:04] <selckin> mariadb is the modern mysql
[14:04] <selckin> project renamed
[14:04] <luxgeek> Sadly I did some/most of it from the synaptic pkg mgr :/
[14:05] <ioria> luxgeek, be sure to have purge all the mariadb*packages
[14:05] <ioria> *ed
[14:05] <luxgeek> selckin, so does everything still work the same then? (admin, etc)
[14:05] <selckin> yes
[14:05] <luxgeek> ioria, Thanks.

[15:17] <freddyP> no
[15:17] <zerorax> So is it recommended to still use 16.04 for servers?
[15:19] <Menzador> zerorax: Yeah, 16.04 is best for servers unless you're fond of pushing patches every 6 Mo's.
[15:19] <Menzador> *mos.

[15:38] <The_Myth> hey guys.. is there any way to get openssl 1.1.0e on my ubuntu 16.04 via apt install?
[15:38] <The_Myth> i have 1.0.2g
[15:39] <Menzador> The_Myth: Do you have backports enabled in Software and Updates?
[15:39] <The_Myth> erm, its a ubuntu server (vps)
[15:39] <The_Myth> forgot to mention, sorry
[15:40] <Menzador> So add the backports repo by changing /etc/apt/sources.list to point to xenial-backports, then update and dist-upgrade as usual
[15:40] <Menzador> The_Myth: ^
[15:41] <The_Myth> oki.. gonna check that
[15:42] <mehnra> users
[15:45] <tgm4883> Menzador: The_Myth 1.1.0e isn't available for 16.04
[15:45] <Menzador> tgm4883: Thank you
[15:46] <tgm4883> Menzador: is there a particular reason you need 1.1.0e
[15:46] <Redfoxmoon> Just updated to ubuntu 16.10 running linux 4.8 and now my ethernet controller (rtl8111/8168/8411 rev 0c) seems to be dead

[15:46] <Redfoxmoon> Used to work fine in 16.04.2
[15:46] <Menzador> tgm4883: Not me, it's The_Myth ...
[15:46] <tgm4883> Heh, so it is :)
[15:48] <The_Myth> tgm4883: i've heard about some vulnerabilities on 1.0.2g
[15:48] <tgm4883> The_Myth: which ones specifically?
[15:48] <tgm4883> The_Myth: CVE numbers?
[15:49] <mehnra> /names/p
[15:49] <The_Myth>  Multiple memory leaks in t1_lib.c in OpenSSL before 1.0.1u, 1.0.2 before 1.0.2i, and 1.1.0 before 1.1.0a allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via large OCSP Status Request extensions.
[15:49] <tgm4883> The_Myth: CVE numbers?
[15:49] <The_Myth> i dnt know.. someone passed me the info. :x
[15:50] <tgm4883> The_Myth: well that's pretty terrible of them and makes it difficult to see if it's patched or not
[15:51] <Waheedi> how to install libboost-python1.49-dev libboost-python1.49.0 on zesty?
[15:51] <tgm4883> The_Myth: I mean, here's the list of CVE's for openssl and their status, but I'm not digging into all of those to see which ones you might be talking about http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/pkg/openssl.html
[15:51] <tgm4883> The_Myth: But it would appear that it's patched
[15:52] <The_Myth> tgm4883: i'll check them myself, thanks. :D
[15:52] <tgm4883> The_Myth: actually, it's probably this one https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2016/CVE-2016-6306.html
[15:52] <tgm4883> The_Myth: but yea, check them all out
[15:53] <Waheedi> I'm upgrading from 12.04 to 17.04 :)
[15:54] <Waheedi> I can see the only available packages on zesty are 1.62 and 1.63
[15:56] <Waheedi> alright not a problem manually installed the packages seems to be installed now
[15:58] <The_Myth> tgm4883: just for better understanding.. when this appears ->released (1.0.2g-1ubuntu4.4)<- means patch as been released?
[15:59] <The_Myth> *has

[16:02] <michael__> hi
[16:03] <tomreyn> ArchaicLord: what the best way to do something is is a very subjective matter
[16:03] <ArchaicLord> sorry, I know that.. just looking for ways to store my config files so then its easy set up if things go wrong
[16:04] <tomreyn> ArchaicLord: storing your configuration files in a remotely hosted git repository is an option. keep in mind that some of the files store din /etc and your home directory may contain sensitive information such as passwords and secret keys youmay not want to store anywhere else (unencrypted)
[16:05] <freddyP> store your files anywhere if you use veracrypt

[16:08] <phil23567> could someone help me with this problem? I am unable to select windows from the grub menu.
[16:10] <The_Myth> uh.. seems all the problems have been already pateched on the openssl v1.0.2g

[16:14] <j4ckcom> 16.04.2 vs 17.04, which must i install?
[16:16] <wedgie> 16.04 is LTS, meaning it will be supported for a few years. 17.04 is not, so it will be supported for 9 months
[16:16] <freddyP> install both see what you like and make a choice
[16:20] <k1l> j4ckcom: on 17.04 you need to upgrade to 17.10 in 9 months and then 6 months later to 18.04. installing 16.04 you can wait for still 4 years to upgrade to 18.04
[16:20] <j4ckcom> oh then i must install 16?
[16:20] <j4ckcom> instead of 17?
[16:21] <j4ckcom> thanks wedgie

[17:39] <MJ-Dev> Hey guys, I'll be using Ubunutu for my development environment. Will I be fine If I downloaded 17.04 or should stick with the LTS version? i.e How much of a headache is upgrading from 17.04 to 17.10 to 18.04?
[17:39] <Tweak> its not that bad of a change, and 17.04 is LTS
[17:40] <Tweak> easy upgrading
[17:40] <genii> 17.04 is not LTS
[17:40] <Tweak> it's not?? i stand corrected
[17:41] <taralej> k1l heppy easter lame :)
[17:41] <MJ-Dev> Tweak: alrighty. If there isn't that much of a headache then I would love to have a new feel every once in while ;)
[17:41] <MJ-Dev> Thanks
[17:41] <genii> MJ-Dev: Unless you require versions of libraries that are not available in 16.04, better to stick with it for a while.
[17:44] <MJ-Dev> genii: Nothin of this sort yet! Thanks for mentioning that.
[17:45] <Tweak> MJ-Dev: You're welcome, sorry i wrong about lts

[17:48] <pezdispenser> hi there, I'm having a problem getting a fresh install to boot,  googled, said it was the grub menu so I ran live usb and ran sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
[17:48] <pezdispenser> still getting the same error,  can anyone help?
[17:49] <jatt> when I activate ufw I cannot longer ping NetBIOS names, I'm using the following rules:
[17:49] <jatt> http://dpaste.com/39YKC43
[17:49] <jatt> what could be the problem?
[17:49] <pezdispenser> I actually ran this >>>sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt sudo grub-install --force --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda

[17:53] <pezdispenser> can someone have a look at this please?  boot problem, I think with grub >   https://paste.ubuntu.com/24395235/
[17:54] <ayjay_t> ReScO it sounds like you want to dual boot
[17:54] <ReScO> ayjay_t, everything but DB'ing
[17:54] <ReScO> No VMWare/VirtBox either
[17:54] <ayjay_t> personally i don't go down the "run windows on linux" path because it's not the best supported use case
[17:55] <ayjay_t> and if you're going to have to program for windows, you're going to need a windows box to test and run on
[17:55] <ayjay_t> it's like having the right tools for whatever your job is
[17:55] <ayjay_t> but if you really want to learn the hardware, you can download a compiler for windows and try using wine, i guess
[17:55] <tachyondecay> I have just upgraded to 17.04 and now Ubuntu seems to be unmounting the file system or mounting it to read-only after being up for a bit. Rebooting "fixes" it. As I power down, I see error messages along the lines of "EXT4-fs error (device nvme0n1p5): ext4_find_entry:1463 inode #183368: comm indicator-sound: reading directory lblock 0". I've already run fsck on /dev/nvme0n1p5 and it came back clean.
[17:55] <robbieusa> hey all happy easter!
[17:56] <taralej> file system ubuntu 17.04 is ext4 or
[17:57] <ikonia> taralej: you can use what you want
[17:57] <taralej> normal file system is
[17:58] <ayjay_t> pezdispenser is sda5 your partition for booting
[17:58] <taralej> i use ext4 but my is old install
[17:58] <ikonia> taralej: is your choice
[17:58] <taralej> a now
[17:58] <pezdispenser> ayjay_t:   sda1 is my partition,  but I changed it accordingly when i ran it,  that was just what I copied from the forum i found that in,
[17:59] <taralej> default is ext4
[17:59] <taralej> yes or not just
[18:00] <ikonia> oh you're asking the default, yes
[18:00] <ayjay_t> pezdispenser: i'm not really sure what you pasted, you pasted someone elses forum post?
[18:00] <taralej> thanks
[18:00] <ikonia> sorry, I thought you where asking what you should use
[18:01] <pezdispenser> ayjay_t:  I meant that ,  that was the command I used from a forum with the same issue posted,  but I changed it accordingly to sda1 for my HDD
[18:01] <pezdispenser> ayjay_t:  i meant to change it before posting here,
[18:02] <pezdispenser> ikonia:   what do you think of this,  any ideas ? https://paste.ubuntu.com/24395290/
[18:02] <ikonia> pezdispenser: either a file is missing or it's looking in the wrong place
[18:03] <pezdispenser> ikonia:   installing grub should have fixed it no? it's a fresk install,  do you have any ideas?
[18:03] <ayjay_t> pezdispenser: do you know there is a #grub?
[18:03] <ikonia> pezdispenser: depends on your system/setup, I dont know about your system / setup to comment on how it should be setup
[18:03] <whitemaiko> !MirtheN Understanding Your Potential - Myles Munroe.mobi
[18:03] <pezdispenser> ayjay_t:  I did not but thank you,   I find this channel usually has a lot of smart people on at once but ill join that too
[18:04] <pezdispenser> ikonia:   it's just an older dell latitude e5510 thats 32 bit,
[18:04] <ayjay_t> there's also #linux and pretty much any distro can help you with grub but you're going to get more specific knowledge in the relevant channel
[18:04] <ayjay_t> pezdispenser: your full commmand history/ what you tried/what didn't work
[18:04] <ayjay_t> etc
[18:04] <ikonia> pezdispenser: thats not really the info people need (but it is helpful to know)
[18:05] <pezdispenser> ayjay_t:   the only two cammands I ran were " sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda"  and  sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
[18:06] <pezdispenser> ikonia:   sorry,   what information would be better
[18:06] <ikonia> pezdispenser: you'd need to explain the problem, explain how your system is laid out, what you've done, what the problem/output is etc etc
[18:06] <ikonia> pezdispenser: I've not been following your problem, you'll also do better to ask the channel rather than random individuals
[18:06] <abolfazl777> hi every ones.I try to run a ".sh" file and it's output was this:"./startup.sh: command not found".(I was in that directory when I try to run that.)
[18:06] <ayjay_t> okay so are you trying to reinstall grub to boot to the desltop you're currently managing?
[18:06] <ayjay_t> i mean the desktop you're currently using*
[18:07] <brunch875> abolfazl777, you need to mark it as executable
[18:07] <abolfazl777> ok thanks
[18:07] <brunch875> you can either do this by doing file properties and ticking the "executable" box
[18:07] <brunch875> or with the command: chmod +x ./startup.sh
[18:08] <brunch875> which reads as "change mode startup.sh to +executable"
[18:08] <pezdispenser> ikonia:  sorry, I did ask the channel, I just seen you talking and figured I'd give you a shout as well,   I'm not the most advanced linux user,  it's just a fresh install,     i only ran these too commands on a fresh install of 16.04 32 bit
[18:09] <pezdispenser> ikonia:   googling those errors comes up as a grub error and people had solved it with those commands to reinstall grub, hopwever no beans for me.
[18:09] <ikonia> pezdispenser: thats why people need to know hte layout of your system
[18:09] <abolfazl777> brunch875,thanks.another qustion.should I do that for every new .sh file in my pc?(if I need them.my mean is they didn't by defult executable?
[18:10] <brunch875> abolfazl777, yes. By default they aren't marked as executable
[18:10] <pezdispenser> ikonia: I understand, I try to make things as clear as I can,  I'll try to make things more clear
[18:10] <abolfazl777> thanks a lot
[18:11] <gredjok> i scanned 80 DIN A3 pages, trimmed them and now I want to cut each A3 into 2 A4: each page of those 80 is a A3, the right part of each page is an even page, so I get 160 DIN A4 pages. tried with krop and pdfmod with no luck. Tips welcomed
[18:14] <pezdispenser> I may have an answer
[18:14] <abolfazl> I mark the file as executable but it didn't work yet
[18:14] <abolfazl> the output was this:"sudo: startup.sh: command not found"
[18:15] <EriC^^> abolfazl: you sure you need sudo with that?
[18:15] <SimonNL> sudo: command not found
[18:15] <abolfazl> if I didn't do that it says"
[18:15] <abolfazl> The file is absent or does not have execute permission
[18:15] <abolfazl> This file is needed to run this program
[18:16] <EriC^^> abolfazl: which program are you trying to run?
[18:16] <abolfazl> apache tomcat
[18:17] <SimonNL> I'm not at all smart with this but I think you have to use full path in your command
[18:18] <abolfazl> I run that in it's dir
[18:18] <abolfazl> and with full path it say's that too
[18:18] <ioria> abolfazl, are you sure you marked it as executable ?  paste  ls -l  startup.sh
[18:18] <abolfazl> -rwxr-xr-x 1 abolfazl abolfazl 1904 مارس  27 13:10 startup.sh
[18:19] <ioria> abolfazl,    run ./startup.sh  ?
[18:19] <abolfazl> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24395401/
[18:20] <ioria> abolfazl,    it's looking for anothe file ...
[18:20] <abolfazl> should I mark executable the other file?
[18:20] <abolfazl> (u think)
[18:20] <ioria> abolfazl,    let's try
[18:21] <abolfazl> ok
[18:21] <EriC^^> abolfazl: it sounds like the script expects it to be in the $PATH, why are you running a separate script though not something from the repos?
[18:22] <doctormon> I have installed Ubuntu 17.04, using either ethernet or wifi the computer does not resolve DNS lookups. I can ping any ip-address and I have managed to update and install packages by injecting ip-addresses into /etc/hosts but I can't figure out why the resolve doesn't work. Other computers on the network are working ok.
[18:23] <abolfazl> Eric^^,I didn't understand what u say(sorry)but it works good when I mark catlina as executable.
[18:24] <abolfazl> I add the dir to ~/.bashrc
[18:24] <abolfazl> should I add that to $PATH?
[18:26] <ioria> doctormon, you mean you can't , for example, use the browser right now ?
[18:28] <Some_Person> Is it possible to theme Tk applications to more-or-less fit in with the default Ambiance theme?
[18:29] <doctormon> iroria: not on that computer with domain names.
[18:31] <abolfazl> what're diffrence between bashrc and $PATH?(I do serche on google but nothing understand)
[18:32] <ioria> doctormon,  you should not need to edit hosts to make resolve work  ...
[18:32] <freddyP> $PATH is setting  bashrc is file containing settings
[18:34] <doctormon> ioria: correct
[18:34] <abolfazl> freddyP, how I understand add a dir to $PATH or bashrc
[18:35] <freddyP> in your home directory you should have a hidden file  .bashrc
[18:35] <freddyP> you can edit that file and define your $PATH
[18:36] <freddyP> nano ~/.bashrc
[18:36] <ioria> abolfazl, if i may....  leave ~/.bashrc alone until you got it well
[18:36] <gredjok> i found a way to crop pdf how I need em, but. Can anyone explain to me why after cutting a pdf with krop, the new file, having half of the data, is as big as the original file?
[18:37] <sinthetek> as soon as rebooted for ubuntu 16.04->16.10 upgrade (with unity), an odd mouse-click/tapping noise started at the login screen. i immediately updated repos and began the 17.04 upgrade but the sound persists pseudo-randomly (sometimes in rapid succession). it is emitted both through internal sound or through hdmi if I set it as primary output. muting the sound stops it but not a viable solution in the
[18:37] <sinthetek> long term. anyone know how to resolve this issue?
[18:37] <ioria> doctormon,  grep -i nameserver /var/log/syslog.log    what gives you ?
[18:40] <abolfazl> freddyP,I have a new app.should I add it's dir to $PATH or to bashrc?
[18:40] <pezdispenser> Running the grub repair graphical tool,   did not solve my issue :/.
[18:43] <cyrano> Why is there a file called "core" in my home directory? I used the "cat" command on it and it listed random symbols
[18:43] <doctormon> ioria: systemd[1]: Starting Nameserver information manager... [repeated twice]
[18:44] <freddyP> abolfazl, where is your new app located
[18:44] <\9> cyrano: it's possibly from some crashed program
[18:44] <brunch875> cyrano, sounds like a core dump. When an application crashes it can output the state in which it crashes to help the developers debug the issue
[18:44] <freddyP> if it you put it in /usr/local  then that should already be in your $PATH
[18:44] <cyrano> Should I delete it anyhow?
[18:44] <doctormon> NetworkManager[724\: <info>  [1478207119.4290] dhcp4 (wlan0):   nameserver '192.168.1.1'
[18:45] <brunch875> cyrano, it should be safe to do so
[18:45] <\9> above: what are you trying to do?
[18:45] <ioria> doctormon,  it should return your DNS not your router  (192.168.1.1 is your router i guess)
[18:46] <\9> er
[18:46] <\9> above: sorry, mishighlight
[18:47] <Some_Person> Is it possible to theme Tk applications to more-or-less fit in with the default Ambiance theme?
[18:47] <freddyP> doctormon, I have an issue with Ubuntu 17.04  internet browsing does not work using my router/gateways IP
[18:47] <freddyP> doctormon, I fixed it by adding another DNS server IP to my iPv4 settings
[18:47] <\9> Some_Person: to my knowledge Tk isn't that great as far as theming goes
[18:48] <freddyP> I used opendns
[18:48] <freddyP> 208.67.222.222
[18:48] <\9> some theming engine might do it?
[18:48] <freddyP> then it works
[18:48] <shadygoose> hi. I wanna access the files in the efi partition on my disk. not sure how to mount it. thoughts?
[18:48] <EriC^^> shadygoose: sudo mount /dev/sdxY /mnt
[18:48] <EriC^^> shadygoose: it should already be mounted under /boot/efi if it's a uefi ubuntu install
[18:49] <\9> Some_Person: perhaps this can help: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6500630
[18:50] <doctormon> thanks freddyP I'm trying that now.
[18:50] <shadygoose> EriC^^: device doesn't exist. running a dual boot (10 and ubuntu) and need some space in the efi to install the win10 update. i couldn't access it in windows. i am using uefi but the drive isn't listed in the file explorer
[18:51] <EriC^^> shadygoose: type "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999"
[18:51] <EriC^^> shadygoose: actually, just go to /boot/efi it should be there
[18:51] <doctormon> freddyP: Yes that worked with opendns, I wonder why it didn't work with 8
[18:51] <shadygoose> how do i go there?
[18:52] <shadygoose> ok. hold on. that was dumb
[18:53] <freddyP> doctormon, I have not had time to look deep into it but I suspect this new build of ubuntu is using a different DNS process
[18:53] <shadygoose> works. thanks Captain
[18:53] <ikonia> it uses dnsmasq the same as the last 5 or 6 ubuntu releases
[18:54] <freddyP> ikonia, something has changed  my network settings work with ubuntu 16
[18:54] <freddyP> using the same settings with Ubuntu 17.04 dont work
[18:54] <ikonia> freddyP: what's your actual problem
[18:54] <EriC^^> shadygoose: np
[18:54] <doctormon> freedyp: It is, if you look in /etc/nssswitch it's got different resolves, pitty was looking into issues, but I couldn't find good info
[18:54] <freddyP> ikonia, DNS does not work using my router's IP address e.g. 192.168.1.1
[18:54] <ikonia> freddyP: ok - so type this command
[18:54] <freddyP> ikonia, it works using opendns
[18:55] <ikonia> freddyP: "nslookup" then type "server 192.168.1.1"
[18:55] <ikonia> freddyP: then try to look up an address, eg: www.google.com from that same command
[18:55] <ikonia> freddyP: do you understand what i'm asking you to do for a test ?
[18:55] <freddyP> yes
[18:55] <ikonia> ok
[18:55] <freddyP> i am pretty versed in networking
[18:55] <pezdispenser> I installed ubuntu in legacy,   does anyone think Grub may run correctly if I install under uefi ?
[18:55] <freddyP> as i say i had no time to look into it
[18:56] <freddyP> a quick fix was opendns
[18:57] <doctormon> freddyP: Aye, I'm a programmer myself, hard to ask questions sometimes ;-)
[18:58] <freddyP> ikonia, I have since setup a local dns server on my LAN and am using that
[18:58] <shadygoose> i'm in so much trouble. accidentally deleted files I shouldn't delete in the microsoft boot partition and I don't see it in trash!
[18:59] <EriC^^> shadygoose: how did you delete them?
[18:59] <shadygoose> selected and clicked delete. mouse slip.
[19:00] <EriC^^> shadygoose: type "find /boot/efi -iname "*Trash*"
[19:00] <\9> better to use single quotes around find wildcards or bash expands them
[19:01] <shadygoose> if i put that in the terminal, i get this ">"
[19:01] <marvin2> is it possible to make autocompletion case insensitive? so that cd d<tab> also completes Directory
[19:01] <EriC^^> shadygoose: repeat it without the first "
[19:02] <doctormon> marvin2: It's possible, but it requires reprogramming the plugin for directory list completion.
[19:02] <ioria> marvin2, https://www.howtogeek.com/267061/how-to-ignore-case-when-using-tab-completion-in-the-linux-terminal/
[19:03] <doctormon> Interesting, lower level
[19:03] <uxfi> hi freinds
[19:04] <shadygoose> permission denied
[19:04] <marvin2> nice let me try
[19:04] <shadygoose> EriC^^: added sudo . got a list of files
[19:05] <EriC^^> shadygoose: is there any dir called .Trash-<some number> ?
[19:05] <shadygoose> .Trash-0
[19:05] <marvin2> ioria it worked, cheers!
[19:06] <ioria> marvin2,  good job
[19:06] <Sparrow_> I thought the dot meant they were hidden
[19:06] <EriC^^> shadygoose: ok the files should be in that dir
[19:07] <marvin2> this is useful as well, completing with one tab instead of having to press it twice. set show-all-if-ambiguous on
[19:07] <doctormon> It is odd that the howto asks you to open inputrc with root, it's not needed to be root
[19:07] <shadygoose> Eric: the folder isn't there
[19:08] <EriC^^> shadygoose: try ls -lRa /boot/efi/.Trash-0
[19:08] <EriC^^> shadygoose: in your filemanager, press ctrl+h, it should show the hidden files then browse to it and do your thing
[19:09] <Sparrow_> In caja ctrl-h toggles show hidden files
[19:09] <shadygoose> got it. you saved me a** mate.
[19:10] <EriC^^> :D
[19:17] <anddam> is it possible to set something in /etc/default to let update-grub what system name to use for a specific partition?
[19:17] <anddam> atm I'm getting "Found unknown Linux distribution on /dev/sda6", I can go and edit the config afterwards but I'd like the update script to automatically use the proper name for the system
[19:18] <marvin2> how can I really clear termina's screen instead of just scrolling prior output to the top?
[19:18] <genii> No, it's done by os-prober
[19:19] <EriC^^> anddam: you can make a custom entry and disable os-prober
[19:19] <MonkeyDust> marvin2  type   clear
[19:19] <ioria> marvin2, reset
[19:19] <EriC^^> anddam: or write some script that always edits it after update-grub makes grub.cfg
[19:21] <paradox1> Hey, I'm trying to debug a couple errors in my syslogs. Any pointers?
[19:21] <anddam> EriC^^: mm the latter sounds a reasonable approach, and update-grub doesn't have a post-hook ?
[19:22] <anddam> genii: I'll check os-prober
[19:22] <CuSn> Hi, what is the default terminal emulator  for ubuntu? is it gnome-terminal?
[19:22] <k1l> CuSn: yes
[19:22] <CuSn> danke!
[19:22] <EriC^^> anddam: i guess something in /var/lib/dpkg
[19:23] <ioria> CuSn, but there is also xterm
[19:23] <k1l> anddam: you can figure out what variable get set and make an own grub script that changes that after the os_prober is done
[19:23] <toeshred> is using bridge-utils (for creating a network bridge) deprecated in ubuntu yet?
[19:23] <paradox1> I use urxvt
[19:23] <acresearch> people, ubuntu genome3 the keyboard shortcuts do not work, how to make them work?
[19:23] <anddam> k1l: what kind of variable are you referring to?
[19:24] <CuSn> ioria: ja, just helping a rookie learn how to clear his scrollback. :-0 but all the menu said ewas terminal, a bit too generic, not helpful when you really need to know what program is being used.  :-)
[19:24] <anddam> I figure os-prober stores its output in /var/lib/os-prober/labels
[19:24] <k1l> anddam: that will need you to dive into the grub scripts :)
[19:24] <ioria> CuSn, ya, ya clear or reset
[19:25] <CuSn> aparently clear does not clear hisscrollback.  waitingt to hear how reset worked for him
[19:26] <ioria> CuSn, if he uses kde .. it's different
[19:27] <acresearch> how to make the keyboard shortcuts work in gnome3 under settings?
[19:27] <anddam> I cannot find where grub-mkconfig calls os-prober, I figure there's another proxy in the middle
[19:27] <uxfi> dancing
[19:28] <k1l> anddam: its running the scripts in grub.conf.d
[19:28] <CuSn> ioria: as he is new i suspect he just did a generic default install, prbably gnome.
[19:28] <ioria> CuSn, ah, ok
[19:28] <CuSn> :-)
[19:33] <anddam> k1l: ah ok, I silver-searched the whole /usr tree, now I'm in /usr/lib/os-probes
[19:37] <EriC^^> anddam: if you want an "unconventional" solution let me know
[19:38] <anddam> EriC^^: like vodoo?
[19:38] <zzzoid> how can I get ubuntu working with MacBook pro int english keyboard - non of the built in mappings work
[19:38] <anddam> or praying?
[19:38] <EriC^^> anddam: :D
[19:38] <anddam> EriC^^: what are you hinting?
[19:38] <anddam> or rather suggesting
[19:39] <anddam> I mean how unconventional is that unconventional solution?
[19:40] <EriC^^> anddam: well, i made a script somewhere, and in /etc/default/grub in the last line i put it the path there so it runs, and in the script it put "(sleep 20 && sed -i 's/label/another/g' /boot/grub/grub.cfg) &"
[19:40] <EriC^^> pretty unconventional i guess, it works though
[19:43] <EriC^^> i guess you could just add that line without the path to a script in /etc/default/grub
[19:46] <dbarros> is there any player that can work showing album art by 700x700 px ?
[19:47] <kai> hi
[19:55] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> hello
[19:55] <anddam> EriC^^: oh 20s for the sync with update grub, I see the unconventionality
[19:55] <anddam> EriC^^:
[19:56] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> my Ubuntu installation has been at 5% of "Configuring apt" for 1 hour. I think it's stuck...
[19:56] <anddam> why not /etc/grub.d/40_custom?
[19:56] <EriC^^> anddam: yeah that's better i guess
[19:57] <anddam> for whatever reason now update-grub and the whole os-prober thing is not recognizing one of the two system it just used to a few minutes ago
[19:57] <pacian> https://webchat.oftc.net/?channels=linode
[19:57] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: is it a new installation, are you on the live cd now?
[19:57] <EriC^^> anddam: did you modify anything?
[19:58] <anddam> EriC^^: nope, or I wouldn't say that's strange
[19:58] <anddam> I used view for all files reviewing
[19:58] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> alkisg: I'm on the live CD session installing to hdd for the first time on this computer
[19:58] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: what's the output of `ps faux | nc termbin.com 9999` ?
[19:59] <alkisg> (open a terminal to run that...)
[19:59] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> alkisg: don't say :P
[20:00] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> I'll check the output before sending it to termbin, hold on...
[20:01] <alkisg> Sure; I don't think the live cd session has any sensitive data in ps...
[20:01] <alkisg> But it's always good to check
[20:02] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> I'm running the live session from an old 2.0 USB and it's very slow... It's struggling to open the terminal
[20:03] <alkisg> USB 2.0 is fast; unless you mean usb 1.1 or 1.0
[20:03] <alkisg> If it's struggling that much with usb 2, it sounds like out of ram issues
[20:03] <alkisg> How much RAM do you have?
[20:03] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> 2 GB
[20:04] <alkisg> And which version/flavor of ubuntu is that?
[20:04] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> Budgie 17.04
[20:04] <alkisg> !budgie
[20:04] <alkisg> Cool
[20:05] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> yes it's the first release and I want to test it on my old laptop
[20:05] <alkisg> Also check dmesg for errors
[20:05] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> the DE looks pretty :)
[20:05] <alkisg> It shouldn't need that much time to open a terminal, unless it has other issues too
[20:05] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> terminix is not opening, something is wrong here
[20:05] <alkisg> You could also try alt+ctrl+f1
[20:06] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> I don't know the livecd user password
[20:06] <alkisg> It shouldn't have a password... e.g. "ubuntu" and "enter", or "ubuntu-mate" and "enter"...
[20:06] <alkisg> ...try ubuntu + enter
[20:07] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> yes it has no password,
[20:07] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> enter worked
[20:08] <alkisg> Check `top` and `dmesg`, then go on to ps faux
[20:08] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> CPU at 100%
[20:09] <alkisg> From which process?
[20:09] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> gsettings is the culprit
[20:09] <alkisg> Keep the full command line there, if any
[20:10] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> nope, that's it: "gsettings"
[20:10] <alkisg> Also ps faux will give you the parent/tree etc
[20:10] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> load: 2.11, 2.03, 1,70 on a 2-core CPU
[20:10] <alkisg> gsettings with no parameters? that's rather strange
[20:10] <alkisg> That should just output the usage
[20:10] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> right?
[20:10] <alkisg> Are you checking with `ps faux | less` now?
[20:11] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> i tried dmesg
[20:11] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> sadly I don't know how to read this output, too low level for me
[20:12] <alkisg> There's still `dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999` ....
[20:12] <alkisg> Same with ps faux too
[20:12] <salamandyr> just set up my first ubuntu system on my first triple boot system..  its trivial, but is there a way to rename "File System" disk label on the desktop?
[20:13] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> do you want me to send tail /var/log/syslog
[20:13] <alkisg> salamandyr: is that a windows partition? just label the partition...
[20:13] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: eh, I asked what I wanted to see...
[20:13] <salamandyr> not sure?  i don't think so, b/c i installed ubuntu, then mac, then windows
[20:14] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> ps faux: http://termbin.com/ub4a
[20:14] <alkisg> salamandyr: sudo lsblk --fs | nc termbin.com 9999
[20:15] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> dmesg: http://termbin.com/p5wb
[20:15] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> no comments about this crappy computer please, I know it's old
[20:15] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: it hanged while trying to read proxy settings
[20:16] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> alkisg: just curious, where did you see that?
[20:17] <alkisg> root       699  0.0  0.1  88628  4836 ?        S    21:06   0:00                      \_ sudo -H -u ubuntu gsettings get org.gnome.system.proxy mode
[20:17] <alkisg> ubuntu     700 99.8  0.0      0     0 ?        Zl   21:06  67:16                          \_ [gsettings] <defunct>
[20:17] <alkisg> The first line there, tries to read the proxy
[20:17] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> oh I see
[20:18] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> and what should I do?
[20:19] <anddam> EriC^^: seems it was mounting/unmounting the partitions that messed up the probing
[20:20] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> please don't tell me that I have to start the installation over
[20:21] <dee_two_> hi
[20:21] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: I'm not sure how a zombie process can still be eating all the cpu... normally I would tell you to kill it and see how it goes from there
[20:21] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> alkisg: to confirm, should I try to kill it now?
[20:22] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: try: sudo kill 699 700; sleep 1; sudo kill -9 699 700
[20:23] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> alkisg: done
[20:23] <alkisg> And how's cpu usage now?
[20:23] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> still there, eating CPU
[20:24] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> now it's not a child process, it's at the upper level with PID 700, defunct, 100% CPU usage
[20:24] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: eh, then I would file a bug report and repeat the installation, yes
[20:24] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> T.T
[20:26] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gsettings-desktop-schemas/+bug/1526336
[20:26] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> yes gsettings has become a zombie process for more people
[20:29] <alkisg> SaltyKawaiiNeko: a zombie process isn't a big problem; one that eats up all the cpu, is, and I don't see a bug report for that
[20:29] <SaltyKawaiiNeko> alkisg: yes you're right
[20:32] <hyper3xp-> hey guys, can anyone help me with a link on installing 16.04.2 on a UEFI system? thought i could simply disable it but i was wrong...

[20:45] <xebra> hi, I want to install a fully encrypted ubuntu, with one partition for root, another for home, and another for swap. I think at installation I need to choose "something else", and then create ONE partition choosing its format as "physical volume for encryption", and then create my ext4 partitions for linux inside that (root, swap, home). Is it so? I'm a bit confused about choosing primary/logical partition type too
[20:45] <Seveas> xebra: you're almost correct. You'll need 3 partitions: an unencrypted /boot, a PV for encrypted lvm and an (encrypted) swap partition
[20:46] <Seveas> then you create a volume group using that pv, and logical volumes insided that group, all normal filesystems like ext4, for / and /home
[20:47] <\9> xebra: i don't know how exactly you go around doing a full disk encryption but it seems nonsensical to me that it'd depend on partition type
[20:48] <\9> primary/logical partitions only matter in that there's a limit of how many primary partitions, so you can divide them up with logical partitions to have more of them
[20:48] <\9> how many primary partitions there can be in a drive*
[20:48] <xebra> \9, I think that's true for old partition tables, I think I have GPT
[20:49] <Seveas> does gpt still have this primary/logical partition thing?
[20:49] <dax> Seveas: no
[20:49] <Seveas> I only use the approach above these days with one big pv. No more fiddling with more partitions :)
[20:50] <xebra> Seveas, do I need the unencrypted boot if I'm installing in UEFI mode (along with windows, dual boot, so it will put the bootloader in the efi partition that is already there for windows)
[20:51] <Seveas> xebra: yes, the kernels need to be in an ordinary, unencrypted partition for the bootloader to find them
[20:52] <Seveas> xebra: though I did make one mistake earlier on: swap can also me an lv, doesn't need to be a partition
[20:52] <JohnWanSanSan> Hello
[20:53] <Elysium3301> So I'm wondering people, why is this? ubuntu.com/mobile
[20:53] <Seveas> The computer I'm typing this on is set up like that, with encrypted root and I believe also encrypted swap.
[20:54] <JohnWanSanSan> I'm trying to connect a TP link to Ubuntu 16.04 but it only has the driver for 14.04
[20:54] <Elysium3301> So what is this 404 number, does that mean we'll get 404 new Ubuntu phones?
[20:54] <k1l> Elysium3301: the ubuntu phones were canceled
[20:55] <JohnWanSanSan> Why not make your own Ubuntu phone?
[20:55] <k1l> Elysium3301: see https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/04/05/growing-ubuntu-for-cloud-and-iot-rather-than-phone-and-convergence/
[20:56] <JohnWanSanSan> I think you just need a nexux 6
[20:56] <Elysium3301> It's so sad to see.
[20:56] <lucas-arg> my trackpad stops working randomly, added i8042.nomux=0 i8042.reset to my kernel parameters and that helped me but still get random freezes not that often... but i dont know where is the problem
[21:03] <xebra> Seveas, I see thanks. The way I understand it, if I didn't want to use LVM but I still wanted encryption of every partition, I'd end up having to enter one password for decryption for each partition, instead of a single one
[21:04] <Seveas> xebra: might well be possible, I've only done full-disk encryption with LVM so can't give a definite answer :)
[21:07] <cores> there appears to be a problem with the default input driver config with 17.04 on my thinkpad x220
[21:07] <cores> the mouse seems "possessed" is the best way i can put it
[21:08] <cores> i assume this has come up already but i can't find references to it. bad search-fu
[21:11] <YankDownUnder> cores: "Mouse" or trackpad? Just wondering...
[21:12] <cores> YankDownUnder, both/either
[21:13] <YankDownUnder> cores: Something to try - turn off "bluetooth" services and see what happens...have experienced the "mouse/trackpad being possessed" becuase of that - just wondering...hmm...
[21:13] <cores> i tried connecting a usb mouse but same behavior
[21:14] <cores> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1574667
[21:14] <cores> that appears to be what i'm experiencing but it's hard to tell because the behavior is slightly different...
[21:14] <cores> YankDownUnder, ok i'll try that
[21:15] <cores> in that bug report people are saying it's the synaptics driver
[21:15] <implite> Hi YankDownUnder :)
[21:15] <YankDownUnder> cores: Had an issue with a client's machine. Turned off "bluetooth" services, it worked. Oddly.
[21:15] <YankDownUnder> implite: Peace, mate
[21:17] <cores> YankDownUnder, did you think the client was suffering from that same bug?
[21:17] <YankDownUnder> cores: I think the client was suffering from HEAPS of things - but yeah, same thingo. Got them sorted out.
[21:19] <yasgur99> hello im trying to reformat a usb drive. i have tried alot and i cant seem to figure it out. was wondering if someone would be able to help

[21:25] <Heelpp> What to do when Ubuntu freezes on shutdown?
[21:26] <xxbonesxx> hello?
[21:26] <Heelpp> What to do when Ubuntu freezes on shutdown
[21:26] <k1l> hi
[21:26] <xxbonesxx> is my text coming through?
[21:27] <k1l> xxbonesxx: yes.
[21:27] <xxbonesxx> ah, thank you.
[21:27] <xxbonesxx> i forgot my registered password for freenode so i wasnt sure if i needed to register another
[21:27] <k1l> Heelpp: press ESC and see what message is shown when its shutting down
[21:27] <xxbonesxx> is there a way to reset password with freenode?
[21:27] <k1l> xxbonesxx: you can ask in #freenode for help on that issue
[21:28] <xxbonesxx> that would make sense thank you
[21:28] <Heelpp> But that doesn't help, it just shows it
[21:28] <xxbonesxx> I have a ubuntu related question though.
[21:28] <xxbonesxx> k1l: would you have a moment to help?
[21:28] <k1l> xxbonesxx: just ask and see if people in here can help
[21:29] <xxbonesxx> ok
[21:29] <Heelpp> Someone help me
[21:29] <k1l> Heelpp: what shows what?
[21:30] <xxbonesxx> I would like to dual boot ubuntu with my windows 10 installation. I've managed to do this on an mbr partition just fine. I was able to use windows booloader to choose between the two. the linux option starts grub and then i choose my linux from there. I like it this way but how would i accomplish the same task with gpt
[21:30] <Heelpp> Esc just shows message, it doesn't help
[21:30] <k1l> Heelpp: what message?
[21:31] <Heelpp> Well, not message but what's going on
[21:31] <k1l> Heelpp: i dont know and see what you see there. so if you dont tell us, we cant just guess
[21:32] <k1l> Heelpp: so what message is it? it can give a hint on what is going on or blocking the shutdown
[21:33] <xxbonesxx> he left
[21:33] <xxbonesxx> Heelpp [554c41cc@gateway/web/freenode/ip.85.76.65.204] has left #ubuntu []
[21:33] <k1l> yes i saw that after i returned to end typing that message. thanks
[21:33] <xxbonesxx> lol
[21:33] <xxbonesxx> :)
[21:35] <xxbonesxx> will ubuntu create its efi boot file in the same location that windows did? or does it stores it boot file on its own partiition?
[21:36] <xxbonesxx> I guess to make things as easy as possible i just create an entry in the windows efi boot file to linuxes grub file, right?
[21:37] <xxbonesxx> or just drop windows bootloader all together... but I like to keep it incase I ever uninstall ubuntu
[21:38] <implite> I have only duel boot with old stuff non-eufi sorry bud
[21:38] <xxbonesxx> ya much simpler with mbr
[21:38] <xxbonesxx> I haven't learned the in's and out's of gpt partitioning boot records
[21:39] <xxbonesxx> how do i create an entry in the windows bootloader (efi or mbr) that will launch grub/grub2?
[21:40] <xxbonesxx> I don't know the specified path that would cause grub to launch
[21:40] <xxbonesxx> I can create the entry in the bootloader but I don't know where to direct it
[21:42] <Ben64> xxbonesxx: much easier to use grub to boot windows
[21:42] <implite> https://askubuntu.com/questions/221835/installing-ubuntu-alongside-a-pre-installed-windows-with-uefi
[21:42] <xxbonesxx> Ben64: I knew I'd get atleast one person to tell me this and I agree it probably would be. I just would like to keep the original bootloader intact and add a fork from the bootloader to the brug bootloader
[21:43] <Ben64> xxbonesxx: but why
[21:44] <xxbonesxx> I suppose I don't have a justifiable reason to go through the trouble but for sake of knowledge it would be nice to know
[21:45] <xxbonesxx> I've accomplished this same thing on mbr using neosmart to auto add the entry in the bootloader to grub but neosmart isn't updated to work with gpt afaik
[21:45] <xxbonesxx> implite: thank you for the link but that only works for mbr boot records and not efi/gpt boot records, afaik
[21:46] <xxbonesxx> implite: and that is exactly how i did it for mbr
[21:47] <xxbonesxx> implite: I was looking at the wrong link, your link may help thank you

[22:13] <davek> hi
[22:15] <davek> Enjoying Ubuntu Gnome 16.04.2 with United 1.2 theme :)
[22:15] <twisted`> hey, I'm on a Ubuntu Live USB right now, when I unmount another USB stick it removes the block device. How do I prevent this? (I've never encountered this behavior before)
[22:16] <davek> Maybe version 18.04 LTS will look something like this.
[22:18] <arrrghhh> hi all.  I'm having an issue with lirc, "ir-keytable -t" will show the keypresses, but "irw" does not.  what am I missing?  I'm trying to customize the power off button so it actually powers the system off :)
[22:19] <gil> Anyone can help me with cmake? I'm trying to make it see another package it requires
[22:21] <Ben64> gil: sudo apt-get install cmake ?
[22:22] <gil> Yes, I already got cmake.
[22:22] <gil> I'm actually trying to make the thpp library from source code.
[22:23] <gil> It relies on fbthrift package, which I also built already
[22:23] <gil> But fbthrift does not install globally, it build everything locally under my own home directory, ~/dev/fbthrift
[22:23] <Ben64> check the documentation for those, we don't really support what you're doing here
[22:24] <gil> My question is not about those packages, but about cmake.
[22:24] <Ben64> it isn't really
[22:24] <gil> How do I set a PACKAGE_LIBRARY in cmake?
[22:24] <gil> Is there a special cmake channel on IRC? I figured ubuntu is the place to ask.
[22:26] <Ben64> there is a #cmake
[22:36] <jonfen> where can i change the power settings from the CLI?

[22:47] <arrrghhh> anyone know lirc?
[22:48] <[[thufir]]> hmm, can't access websites, but IRC is fine.  DNS with ISP or something?  what are google's DNS servers IP addresses pls.
[22:48] <jonny007> Where do I sew up valid credit card numbers?
[22:48] <dax> [[thufir]]: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
[22:48] <[[thufir]]> dax: thanks
[22:49] <dax> jonny007: no hacker crap on freenode or #ubuntu, sorry
[22:49]  * [[thufir]] just wants to know what "sew up" means..
[22:49] <jonny007>  valid credit card numbers?
[22:52] <[[thufir]]> I still can't browse the web.  ping google.com or use whois.  I added 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as DNS servers through GUI for this pc's connection.  Obviously, "internet" works because IRC is fine.

[22:57] <blackswan> hi. i installed ubuntu-mate 17.04 using encrypted lvm, blackisted the nouveau driver, and now i am getting a dialog box to enter the passphrase at boot time but it isn't responding to the keyboard normally.
[22:57] <blackswan> does anybody have any idea what i have just done to myself?
[22:58] <kode54> I did better with 17.04 on an ESXi system with PCIe passthrough of an AMD video card
[22:58] <kode54> blacklisted the vmwsvga driver, and it just flashed at the login screen indefinitely, trying to start Xorg
[22:59] <kode54> apparently I had to manually configure it to use the AMD card's screens
[23:00] <JMichaelX> so, i was given a Lenovo X120e laptop, with a single core AMD CPU, and a Radeon 6310 HD GPU...
[23:00] <zephyr8965> Hey, anybody here that can help me get bluetooth running again?  My computer went to sleep and when I woke it up, my bluetooth headset was no longer listed as a sound device.  I removed it and tried to re-add it, but my computer wouldn't detect it.  So, I turned off bluetooth and turned it back on.  Now, when I right-click the bluetooth icon and click "devices", it shows that the bluetooth manager is loading, then just gives up
[23:00] <zephyr8965> and it goes away.  I'm on Ubuntu 17.04 Mate 1.18.0, 64-bit.
[23:01] <JMichaelX> using 17.04, video playback seems poor. what would my best bet be with the GPU?
[23:01] <B105PH3RE> zephyr8965: did you try rebooting our system or restared bluetooth daemon
[23:01] <B105PH3RE> may also need to restart the bluetooth applet
[23:01] <zephyr8965> I've tried neither.  I'd like to avoid a reboot because I'm multitasking and would like to not have to re-open everything.  Is there a quick terminal command to restart the bluetooth daemon?
[23:02] <B105PH3RE> service bluetoothd restart
[23:02] <zephyr8965> "Failed to restart bluetoothd.service: Unit bluetoothd.service not found."
[23:02] <zephyr8965> :/
[23:03] <zephyr8965> My headset was working beautifully before the system went to sleep.
[23:03] <zephyr8965> So I know I do have bluetooth, lol.
[23:03] <B105PH3RE> should probably disable the sleep feature and just turn off the displays
[23:03] <zephyr8965> Yeah, I'm thinking I might do that. :/
[23:03] <jonfen> where is that setting?
[23:04] <zephyr8965> How would I restart the applet?
[23:04] <B105PH3RE> depends on your desktop environment but the power management or display/screen settings should have those options
[23:05] <B105PH3RE> zephyr8965: service blueooth restart
[23:05] <B105PH3RE> also you can try restarting your blueman-applet
[23:05] <B105PH3RE> other then that rebooting
[23:06] <B105PH3RE> I can't type tonight you get it i'm sure
[23:06] <zephyr8965> AHA!
[23:06] <zephyr8965> I opened the blueman-applet through the console and when I tried to open devices, it said there is already an instance of it.
[23:06] <B105PH3RE> I found that the blueman-applet is problamatic sometimes
[23:07] <B105PH3RE> you have to kill blueman-applet first
[23:07] <zephyr8965> Got it.
[23:07] <B105PH3RE> ps -A|grep blueman-applet
[23:07] <zephyr8965> For some reason, the manager kept running even after I closed the applet.
[23:07] <B105PH3RE> anyone here good with various desktop environments I've got a problem that I can't find a way to work out
[23:07] <zephyr8965> But I closed the applet, killed the frozen manager, opened the applet back up, and was able to open devices.
[23:08] <B105PH3RE> my applet indicator app appearance/theme is generic now since I loaded i3 one time any ideas how to reset it to default xubuntu appearance
[23:09] <B105PH3RE> zephyr8965: so its working for you now?
[23:09] <jonfen> in the sound applet, is there a way to auto-select an output and input device when/if they become available?  everytime i plug in my DAC and mic I have to manually select them
[23:10] <B105PH3RE> jonfen: prioritizing the sources with pulseaudio may help been a while since I tried todo that though
[23:10] <bilb_ono> what causes tab complete to work on some files/folders but not others?
[23:11] <B105PH3RE> jonfen: prioritizing the sources with pulseaudio may help been a while since I tried todo that though?
[23:12] <B105PH3RE> bilb_ono: if your refering to the console/terminal feature it sometimes depends on the command you are using and context for the tab completion to work
[23:13] <zephyr8965> ARGH!  I got my bluetooth working again, but now that horrible lag and bad sound quality from Ubuntu 16.04 is back! Q.Q
[23:14] <B105PH3RE> zephyr8965: you mean bluetooth lag/quality or all around bad quality with the sound output?
[23:14] <Guest41022> ?

[23:15] <Guest41022> oi
[23:15] <zephyr8965> B105PH3RE: My bluetooth headset plays sound almost a full second late.  This includes the sound stopping when I pause/play spotify or youtube.  Also, there is a slight crackling to the sound.  It's only with my headset.  Laptop speakers sound normal.

[23:18] <mattpalermo> Hello Ubuntu community! Is anyone available to help me through the process of submitting a bug report? I have been collecting all the information I can about the problem over the past few days, so I do have something to contribute. I am also not afraid to run any experiments that you suggest (e.g. installing a different kernel).
[23:18] <bilb_ono> B105PH3RE: well its weird. I can run chmod +x N - tab, and it autocompletes.
[23:18] <B105PH3RE> does sh .run work cuz It maybe the sudo breaking it
[23:18] <bilb_ono> and it does that successfully
[23:18] <bilb_ono> and yeah the sh .run does work
[23:18] <B105PH3RE> but not sudo
[23:18] <bilb_ono> ah ok
[23:18] <bilb_ono> yeah like I can do ./N - tab and it completes
[23:18] <B105PH3RE> sudo may not support the tab completation in some situations
[23:18] <bilb_ono> why doesn’t it work when I use sudo?
[23:19] <B105PH3RE> does sudo .run work
[23:19] <Ben64> because ubuntu messes with tab completion
[23:19] <Fasort> I have : xset -b s off dpms 0 0 120. in my .xinitrc. but sometimes screen wont turn off.. the only solution to this is reboot or log in again. can any one help me sort it out please?
[23:19] <B105PH3RE> Fasort: the wonderfull screen off thing I always have that problem let me get the info you need
[23:20] <B105PH3RE> Fasort: this is for console blanking or the desktop environment?
[23:20] <bilb_ono> B105PH3RE: mp sudo <.run file> does not auto-complete
[23:20] <zephyr8965> Oh...interesting.  I redid the audio sync and that fixed it.  Guess it's just hit and miss?
[23:20] <Fasort> B105PH3RE, WM
[23:21] <zephyr8965> There is a tiny delay still, but it's tolerable
[23:21] <B105PH3RE> Fasort: create a file in your home directory called .xprofile and add the xset s off and xset -dpms on seperate lines and restart your computer should disable it
[23:22] <Fasort> what about xinitrc?
[23:22] <jonfen> B105PH3RE: thank you
[23:22] <B105PH3RE> Fasort: for console you have to add consoleblank=0 to your grub line
[23:22] <B105PH3RE> Fasort: xinitrc doesn't work for me for some reason but the .xprofile does

[23:29] <B105PH3RE> badcatalex: so you have to get the right driver/module for that modem
[23:29] <zephyr8965> Is there a better version of "kill" when a process just ignores it?
[23:29] <B105PH3RE> sybaWeb: you show 775M on root /
[23:29] <B105PH3RE> available
[23:29] <badcatalex> How, and where, could I get the modem's driver?
[23:30] <B105PH3RE> not sure on that one been awhile since I messed with a modem however... see what you can find from manufacturer
[23:31] <sybaWeb> B105PH3RE: aahh... so /cow it is then . Didnt think so.
[23:31] <B105PH3RE> sybaWeb: its showing that /cow is mounted as root /
[23:31] <sybaWeb> makes sense though, it changed after some downloads. But i somehow missed that
[23:32] <badcatalex> They don't even MENTION it on their site!
[23:32] <Razva> hey! how many servers can I join in a Ubuntu OpenStack cluster for free? I know that 2 years ago it was a 10 or 12 servers limit?
[23:33] <Razva> https://www.ubuntu.com/cloud/openstack/autopilot < still 10 machines
[23:33] <B105PH3RE> badcatalex: are you trying to setup a dialup internet connection or a modem peer-to-peer or make a voice phone call?
[23:34] <sybaWeb> next question: whats the go to program for storing things in an encrypted vrtual filesystem on a mounted (windows) drive?
[23:34] <badcatalex> Idk, what does the use of BBS client software count as?
[23:34] <B105PH3RE> badcatalex: you need a dialup client then...
[23:34] <B105PH3RE> terminal dialing
[23:35] <B105PH3RE> one sec lets see what I can find for ya
[23:35] <badcatalex> Does SyncTERM count? It IS a BBS dialer
[23:35] <sybaWeb> Is this a tricky area now that truecrypt went ahoy?
[23:36] <gogeta> B105PH3RE, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[23:36] <B105PH3RE> ya thats good badcatalex
[23:36] <B105PH3RE> gogeta: I don't need the help badcatalex does :)
[23:36] <gogeta> B105PH3RE, you need to add them as modems drivers are not included
[23:36] <gogeta> oh
[23:36] <gogeta> badcatalex, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[23:36] <badcatalex> Thanks, I see that there's a page on Coeaxant Cards.
[23:37] <B105PH3RE> gogeta: HSF/HCF modem should already drivers built-in no?
[23:37] <gogeta> B105PH3RE, no modem drivers have been inculded in years
[23:37] <sybaWeb> B105PH3RE: thanks for the disk space help
[23:37] <gogeta> B105PH3RE, you have to install them but its easy
[23:38] <B105PH3RE> gogeta: then you can help badcatalex do it then :P
[23:38] <gogeta> the page i gave covers it :)
[23:38] <B105PH3RE> what modem dialers are including with ubuntu 16.04
[23:39] <gogeta> B105PH3RE, none you have to add one
[23:39] <B105PH3RE> sybaWeb: no problem
[23:39] <B105PH3RE> there's none available with the default repo's
[23:39] <badcatalex> The instructions are for Ubuntu 11.10. Will that matter?
[23:39] <B105PH3RE> not installed that is
[23:39] <gogeta> no
[23:39] <gogeta> same apps and steps
[23:42] <badcatalex> The instructions won't work
[23:43] <gogeta> badcatalex, why not
[23:43] <badcatalex> See here:  https://thepasteb.in/p/g5hP99g3gN7Ur
[23:44] <gogeta> badcatalex, links are dead nice
[23:45] <B105PH3RE> badcatalex: is this a usb modem or internal?
[23:45] <B105PH3RE> sorry nvm its pci
[23:45] <B105PH3RE> haha
[23:46] <sybaWeb> what would you say is the most idiot proof way of setting up a virtual disk on an existing Windows drive, from a ubuntu live system?
[23:46] <sybaWeb> if possible
[23:48] <badcatalex> At this point, i'm this close: | | to giving up
[23:48] <yasgur99> register
[23:48] <B105PH3RE> badcatalex: are you showing a /dev/modem ?
[23:48] <yasgur99> how do i register
[23:48] <badcatalex> ?
[23:48] <B105PH3RE> badcatalex: try ls /dev/m*
[23:48] <gogeta> badcatalex, seem you only need gnome-ppp now
[23:48] <gogeta> seems
[23:49] <B105PH3RE> gogeta: he's trying to connec to a bbs not ppp internet
[23:50] <B105PH3RE> badcatalex: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/97242/how-to-send-at-commands-to-a-modem-in-linux
[23:50] <B105PH3RE> badcatalex: https://askubuntu.com/questions/192717/how-to-talk-to-usb-modem-in-linux
[23:50] <B105PH3RE> those two may shed some help for you
[23:51] <badcatalex> also, there seems to be no /dev/modem
[23:51] <badcatalex> and I still ned the modem's drivers
[23:51] <badcatalex> *need
[23:53] <badcatalex> Great, now how will I use BBSes on linux!
[23:54] <gogeta> badcatalex, type in there ip
[23:54] <gogeta> bad
[23:54] <gogeta> badcatalex, you dont need to dial them these days
[23:54] <badcatalex> I want to use the few dial-up ones that still exist
[23:55] <badcatalex> Plus, also to do a video on how modems work
[23:59] <badcatalex> There seems to be another way to compile the driver
[23:59] <badcatalex> Or not.
[23:59] <badcatalex> Is there another way?
