[07:09] Night___, well as it says, you have to update. [07:09] Night___: what is not clear ? [07:09] Night___, your system is no longer supported. [07:09] it's telling you your OS is end of life, and you should upgrade to a supported platform [07:09] sebsebseb: thanks, that did it [07:10] ouroumov: ikonia check whole, I'm running 17.04 [07:10] Night___: you didn't say that [07:10] wth [07:10] you just said "I keep getting this" [07:10] ikonia: 2nd line, of pastebin [07:10] Welcome to Ubuntu 17.04 (GNU/Linux 4.10.0-20-generic x86_64) [07:10] Maybe that's just some kind of communication strategy in that case [07:10] Night___: I assumed you upgraded your distro [07:11] would that be right [07:11] from 16.10 yes [07:11] Night___: so it's never been 12.04 [07:11] no [07:11] I do not keep hw long enough for that [07:11] I'm thinking of buying Lenovo 710 as my first device to install linux on... 7th gen i5-7Y54 , Intel HD 615 , Lenovo AC Wireless... if ubuntu 17.04 doesn't work on it, when could I realistically expect ubuntu to work on it? some months? next year? [07:11] so thats the motd message getting the wrong message from the server that hosts it, the question is why [07:11] yoga 710* [07:12] ikonia: indeed, looks like more users are having it [07:12] seames like more users have this isssue [07:12] https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2358803 [07:12] wannaswitch: impossible to say [07:12] Night___: where are you getting that info [07:12] ikonia: motd [07:12] simple enough to remove it from motd, but that does not fix root cause [07:13] Night___: so if you'd upgraded from 12.04, that woul make sense [07:13] ikonia: correct, but I upgraded from 16.10 [07:13] it looks like someone has just screwed up the motd message/url [07:13] well 16.04 -> 16.10 -> 17.04 [07:15] Night___: could you check if /etc/default/motd-news is actually the problem [07:16] https://paste.ubuntu.com/24465351/ [07:16] not muc hthere tbh [07:16] Night___: change enabled=1 to 0 [07:17] yeah did that and saw the error [07:17] it is not dynamic, it justa cat from https://motd.ubuntu.com/ [07:17] it can't "cat" a url [07:17] curl* [07:17] it has to download that as a local file [07:17] basically, that motd message appears to be unmaintained [07:18] ^true, early in the morning. saw it after i hit enter here that it should have been curl [07:18] if you change it to enabled=0 what impact does that have ? [07:19] just tested it is gone now [07:19] https://paste.ubuntu.com/24465365/ [07:19] so I would do two things - 1.) leave that as "0" for the moment 2.) log a bug saying the person maintaining the motd site needs to put some logic in it, rather than just blanket message that 12.04 is EOL [07:20] as just hitting all servers blindlg saying update 12.04 is sloppy [07:20] indeed, [07:20] ill log a bug on rt [07:21] Than kyou ikonia. :) [07:21] not a problem [07:32] Hi [07:32] how do I perform a specific command on pc start /login of my user that needs root rights? [07:33] specifically "route add ...." [07:34] https://askubuntu.com/questions/1245/add-default-route-on-boot [07:34] ah great [07:34] thanks [07:34] Yep [07:36] PipeItToDevNull, I added up route add -net 10.10.0.0/16 gw 192.168.0.192 [07:36] that should work right [07:36] why not add a static route? [07:37] Night___, isnt that a static route? [07:37] :o [07:37] i want to install uhuntu 17.04,where can i enable nomodeset before the installation? [07:37] sepp, Hit "e" on the default entry, remove any other modeset options and type it in [07:39] Xatenev: should not need to be radded on every boot [07:39] Night___, but I need to [07:39] Its gone when i just type it into CMD [07:40] but when i start my pc,ubuntu dvd is in the dvd eader,it boots the dvd then the monitor goes black and the fans are at 100%. i dont know which entry you mean. i just see a black screen [07:40] sepp, Then it isnt booting, grub should display [07:42] i can click f6 for different options (try ubuntu without installing,install etc) grub is at the top [07:42] im in the grub screen [07:42] Hit "e" on the default entry [07:44] Xatenev: reported [07:46] default is try.but i want to install ubuntu can i use install or do i need to click the default? [07:46] Any of then will work [07:46] im in [07:46] Into the edit mode? [07:46] yes [07:46] Remove any othr entry that mentions modeset then add nomodeset [07:47] Night___, you mean that is some bug? [07:48] with ' ' or just nomodeset? [07:48] Xatenev: it's not, you need to add the route somewhere [07:48] I cannot remmeber, make it look like the others. I had to do that to boot Manjaro on my 970, but it was a while ago [07:48] ducasse, Im just confused what Night___ is trying to say [07:48] :O [07:49] how do i TURNT the BASS up [07:49] Hello, i wanna switch from ubuntu to ubuntu gnome. What files should I make sure to keep? Such as ssh privkey and .bashrc .tmux etc? [07:49] i wrote it under linux and initrd [07:49] OlofL, just install gnome [07:50] OlofL: maybne your system wide files like in /etc/* [07:50] OlofL: some /var/log/apt/ logs to see what youve installed [07:50] OlofL: the question is what do you want to keep [07:50] so you can reinstall them later [07:50] save a list of dpkg -l [07:50] i dunno [07:50] taking random things will not help - and may actually cause problems [07:51] PipeItToDevNull: I heard a lot of people get complications after installing it on ubuntu... Also this is my work pc I dont wanna waste a lot of time troubleshooting [07:51] ikonia: im sorry [07:51] i will shutup [07:51] azizLIGHT: no need for sorry [07:51] Incest is the best put your sister to the test [07:51] "booting a command list command nomodeset not found" it says [07:51] wow! [07:51] sepp, I am unsure, I dont not have an ISO to boot and test [07:52] sepp: you must have added it in the wrong place [07:52] !nomodeset | sepp see this [07:52] sepp see this: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [07:52] theres a list of possible commands when i click tab but nomodeset isnt listed [07:53] ok ubottu [07:54] how do i find out if i have an acpi bios? [07:56] hi [07:56] how do i change color12 / [07:56] in ls , sagemath the colors appear a bit too bright? [07:57] I read man rxvt, in that it is color12 to bright blue? I use unity/gnome-terminal obviously [07:57] but why does the bright blue color come from? [07:57] what? [07:57] From where is it taken, and how can I change it? [07:57] it's set in your terminal. also see 'man dircolors' [07:57] Ben64: When I do ls, sagemath, it shows the fonts in bright blue, some of them [07:57] gnome-terminal settings, I checked but couldn't find it? [07:58] it's not just ls [07:58] sagemath too shows the same colors [07:59] https://ptpb.pw/Sjqc.png [07:59] look [07:59] leaderboss: https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-terminal/stable/app-colors.html.en [08:02] https://ptpb.pw/LxID.png look it's still the same [08:03] that's bright blue is creating problem, and dont know from where is it coming? What's the source? [08:03] why did installing linux work a year ago but now i require to use nomodeset? should i try an old distro?but my knoppix livecdworks [08:05] sepp: something probably changed in the drivers since then. just try with nomodeset. === GoBlack is now known as GoBlackSystems [08:05] but it isnt listed in the available commands [08:06] sepp: add it to the kernel command line in grub [08:06] how?it doesnt say [08:07] something with the command line? [08:08] "If you need to add kernel options not provided by the F6 menu, you can just type them in at the end of the boot options line." [08:09] how do i access the boot options line? === JanC is now known as Guest35192 === JanC_ is now known as JanC [08:10] read the link from ubottu, it's all detailed there [08:10] What are you trying to do sepp? [08:12] i read it and did what it said but i dont know where to put nomodeset.i think there are pictures in the thread,do you see them,i cant? [08:13] i try to install ubuntu but i vant even access the install menu of ubuntu and get a black screen and fans at 100% [08:13]
