[01:10] <thatlizdude> my Thunderbird IRC client is working! :D
[01:11] <thatlizdude> i can only recommend Thunderbird guys
[01:11] <btp> I've installed terminator and I when I right click it closes, anyone seen this issue before?
[01:12] <pynki> btp, right click the terminator or just right click?
[01:13] <btp> In the application itself. Like if I were going to right click to paste something.
[01:13] <btp> or right click to open settings.
[01:13] <pynki> so no menu :/
[01:13] <pynki> error messages?
[01:13] <pynki> start it from another terminal
[01:13] <btp> Menu pops up, but the application closes. No errors.
[01:14] <pynki> no errors...thats always strange
[01:15] <pynki> i had issue with pasting from keepass with terminator
[01:15] <thatlizdude> :)
[01:15] <pynki> same problem...
[01:15] <btp> Now it isn't even opening.
[01:19] <btp> Is apt purge the best way to uninstall?
[01:20] <ChaiTRex> btp: It depends on whether you're going to reinstall it and want to keep the configuration files around or not.
[01:21] <Salcoder> ChaiTRex+
[01:21] <btp> I would like to remove config files
[01:21] <Salcoder> Then purge it.
[01:23] <Aprel> Hi I have an important 8kb file I'm backing up in various places. For one, I want to create a cd image that is equivalent to writing that same file over and over for the 700MB of the cd. What's the easiest tool/way of creating this kind of image?
[01:23] <mncedisi> hi
[01:23] <PlasmaStar> Aprel: lol
[01:25] <Aprel> Got 700MB, why just write to the first 8kb and waste the rest and not protect yourself from a small scratch :p
[01:25] <PlasmaStar> I thought everybody recursively copy/pasted folders for fun at least one time.
[01:26] <PlasmaStar> Copy A, Paste B, Create C, Drop A and B into C, Copy C, Paste A, Create B, Drop C and A into B
[01:29] <Aprel> Maybe a tar file is better so that all the copies don't have to be indexed by the filesystem, and reduce file sector padding?
[01:29] <Aprel> Well I guess that tar just indexes them tho.....
[01:35] <Aprel> actually I might just do this with dvdisaster
[01:36] <pynki> you might get a hammer and a stone...its just 8kb
[01:37] <pynki> if its really important
[01:37] <pynki> :P
[01:37] <btp> email it to yourself :/
[01:37] <Aprel> pynki: you say that in jest, but I would have so much admiration for someone badass enough to really do that lol
[01:37] <mncedisi> im using ubuntu 16.04 and i have just did dist-upgrade , so is it important to download 16.04.2
[01:39] <pynki> Aprel, me too. me too
[01:42] <mncedisi> i am using NVIDIA Graphic card , how to get the best of my GPU , MY System says its using Gallium 0.4 on NVA8 driver
[01:43] <mncedisi> is that the best driver yet
[01:44] <Aprel> mncedisi: I always just download the official linux driver from nVidia's website and install it. I've found it less buggy than the foss and repo ones, but ymmv, and it's harder to install than the alternatives
[01:45] <wedgie> I find the "additional drivers" tool to be easy and likely to work
[01:46] <mncedisi> @Aprel thanks
[01:48] <Bashing-om> mncedisi: ' lsb_release -a ' shows what ?
[01:49] <Aprel> There was an annoying bug with nouveau and nVidia cards a couples year ago. It would cause crashes a few minutes after booting into the desktop. Before that, some screen tearing issues with nouveau and Nvidia cards.
[01:49] <pd3> 12.04 is out of support already?
[01:50] <Bashing-om> !12.04 | pd3

[02:05] <pd3> is there a plugin for vim that allowes me to expand paths with the [tab] key?
[02:43] <apm345113462> hello, sorry for the newb question, but one of my directories has this name: zzz-zzz_(zzz_zzz). When I try to cd into it, I get this error message: -bash: syntax error near unexpected token `(' Would greatly appreciate any advice on how to fix this

[02:45] <psc_> hi all, trying to install gladish on 16.04 i have this msg:  gladish : Depends: ladish (= 1+dfsg0-5ubuntu3) but 1:1+git20130222-1+pylash2~precise1 is to be installed
[02:46] <psc_> how can I fix this?
[02:49] <jonathangrice> anyone active here?
[02:49] <pd3> soso
[02:51] <jonathangrice> I'm having some technical difficulties after installing  xorg on Ubuntu 16.04 Core Main for armhf. I started a new thread on the ubuntu forum but I've not had any luck at getting any response or help.
[02:52] <pd3> whats the rpoblem?
[02:52] <Toxicsnow> Hi
[02:52] <jonathangrice> The keyboard and mouse doesn't work past uBoot.
[02:53] <pd3> lsusb shows them?
[02:53] <Bashing-om> !info ladish xenial
[02:53] <jonathangrice> yes. In tty.
[02:53] <pd3> i assume its some kind of dev kit
[02:53] <Toxicsnow> was wondering if some one could chat with me quick about backup solutions for linux servers
[02:54] <jonathangrice> same thing as the cubietruck.
[02:54] <jonathangrice> it's an AllWinner A20 board.
[02:54] <pd3> mouse and stuff are connected via usb, jonathangrice
[02:54] <jonathangrice> Yes.
[02:54] <pd3> jonathangrice, anything else working on these usb ports?
[02:55] <jonathangrice> no.
[02:55] <pd3> Toxicsnow, rsync
[02:55] <pd3> !info rsync | Toxicsnow
[02:55] <jonathangrice> it's like xorg turns off any access to USB after booting up. all lights on anything plugged in turns off.
[02:56] <Toxicsnow> pd3 so I have about 6 servers and I want to backup the OS incase of issues
[02:56] <pd3> so before xorg installation it worked?
[02:56] <pd3> Toxicsnow, you have physical access to the amchines?
[02:56] <jonathangrice> @pd3 any USB device worked in tty. Keyboard, mouse, usb thumb drive,etc.
[02:56] <Toxicsnow> yes they are on a esxi cluster
[02:57] <pd3> Toxicsnow, you can connect harddrives?
[02:57] <Toxicsnow> if need be
[02:57] <pd3> Toxicsnow, then just live boot an ubuntu and run dd to clone the harddrives
[02:57] <jonathangrice> If you require the xorg logs, here is a pastebin link. https://pastebin.com/qpfaUPe5
[02:57] <Toxicsnow> or create vertual disks
[02:58] <Toxicsnow> pd3 Im looking for a automated setup
[02:58] <Toxicsnow> like urbackup
[02:58] <thatlizdude_> how do you cancel a stuck installation on Ubuntu?
[02:58] <Toxicsnow> pd3 or backupPC
[02:58] <jonathangrice> to access tty, I have to chroot to the sdcard and apt-get remove xorg
[02:58] <pd3> thatlizdude_, restart
[02:58] <tonyt> when boot up and getting to the log in screen ubuntu makes short drum roll noise. anyone know what that is about?
[02:58] <pd3> Toxicsnow, you want a copy of the whole hdd?
[02:59] <Toxicsnow> correct except the /mnt
[02:59] <thatlizdude_> is there a better way then restart? :D
[02:59] <thatlizdude_> like something in terminal
[02:59] <thatlizdude_> see current processes and kill it?
[03:00] <Tweak|2> hi. getting this error when compiling a program and I dont see any qt3 packages in the package manager except one and thats apparently not it. hecking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.0) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation!
[03:00] <thatlizdude_> it's in the sidebar, loading an app (trying to install google-chrome-stable, should've used terminal...)
[03:01] <Toxicsnow> pd3 correct except the /mnt
[03:01] <thatlizdude_> so is there a way?
[03:01] <thatlizdude_> im kinda in a hurry, sorry
[03:01] <Toxicsnow> pd3 is there a way to a file restore to a black partion if so how do I build the bootale partion
[03:02] <Toxicsnow> pd3 to a blank partion
[03:02] <wafflejock> Tweak|2, might need one or more of the libqt packages what are you trying to compile?
[03:03] <Tweak|2> a program called cpuinfo.
[03:04] <jonathangrice> pd3, I didn't know you were helping someone else when I came in. I can wait until you're through.
[03:04] <wafflejock> Tweak|2, got a link that doesn't easily resolve in google usually the package creator/maintainer will list info about dependencies
[03:19] <jonathangrice> anyone available to help with an xorg problem?
[03:25] <pfelt> evening all.  are there any tc experts up?  i'm looking to do some bandwidth limiting, but i want it to be a unique limit for every ip in a /24.  eg: i want to limit any single ip to 100kbps but i want the whole to be able to go up to ~253*100kbps (or the max interface rate)
[03:28] <Umeaboy> jonathangrice: Write me a PM and I'll try.
[03:32] <Umeaboy> I'm no expert thou.
[03:37] <swampFox> newbie here, are there anymore useful things to run in the terminal like top, mc, irssi etc?
[03:38] <darthanubis> swampFox, htop, mtr
[03:38] <swampFox> whats mtr
[03:38] <swampFox> im familiar with htop
[03:39] <swampFox> hmm interesting, thanks :)
[03:47] <Jordan_U> swampFox: screen/tmux can be great tools, though are usually more useful to people who use ssh a lot or want to be able to log out of their graphical session while keeping commands running (like I do with irssi).
[03:48] <swampFox> im actually using tmux, mc, top and irssi right now
[03:49] <swampFox> newbie coder
[03:52] <swampFox> maybe this is asking in the wrong place.. but in tmux if i have a 5 pane display spaced the way i like. is there a way to save it without splitting and adjusting every time i start?
[03:53] <xXEoflaOEXx> Hi everyone. I am trying to upgrade from Xubuntu 16.04 to 16.10 for preparation to upgrade from 16.10 to 17.04. Will the programs which is compiled from source and installed using make install be erased? I want to keep my favorite screensaver program installed.

[03:56] <noahniuwa> Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but can anyone answer some  basic questions about ssh and public/private keys?
[03:57] <noahniuwa> Or direct me to the appropriate channel?
[04:01] <swampFox> we need more helpers in this chat :(
[04:19] <gadget> lo there. Would anybody have an idea as to what would cause networking problems after a forced reboot during a 16.10 to 17.10 upgrade. I think I rebooted into a previous kernel first, then finished the install but networking is now borked
[04:20] <gadget> the kernel module is loaded and such too but it seems to be aborting any connections?
[04:29] <wauf> I need help torubleshooting what to do next... I'm stuck at unexpected result after entering "xsetwacom --list" im following these instructions https://github.com/DIGImend/digimend-kernel-drivers/issues/26 and im stuck at the last part of (1.3)  im not sure what to do next.
[04:30] <wauf> Basically, im trying to configure a pen tablet. Anyone have experience with that?
[04:34] <gadget> wauf looks like you have a ways to go.
[04:41] <pynki> is there a way to set the date of my ubuntu server by hand? sudo date 050100012017.34 seems not to work
[04:45] <Tin_man> pynki, might look here >> https://askubuntu.com/questions/679988/how-to-change-ubuntus-server-date-and-time-via-command-line
[04:46] <pynki> user@ubuntu:~$ sudo date --set="2017-05-01 10:05:59.990"
[04:46] <pynki> Mon May  1 10:05:59 CST 2017
[04:46] <pynki> user@ubuntu:~$ date
[04:46] <pynki> Thu Apr 27 12:46:37 CST 2017
[04:47] <pynki> @Tin_man
[04:49] <pynki> ok - timedatectl set-ntp false does the trick
[05:05] <gadget> In case anyone was interested. i fixed my 17.04 network issue with this --> https://askubuntu.com/questions/904844/cant-connect-to-wifi-on-ubuntu-17-04
[05:30] <pynki> gadget, can you include a snippet of /var/log/syslog in the question or a pastebin-thingy to see wht happens when you try to connect?
[05:31] <pynki> this leaves people not googling what hardware is in it, googling what drivers are available for the ahrdware...etc
[05:33] <pynki> i should sleep...thats not a question o.O
[05:43] <thatlizdude> what irc client are you using right now everyone?
[05:47] <PipeItToDevNull> IRSSI
[05:48] <thatlizdude> is that Ubuntu client?
[05:48] <PipeItToDevNull> It is a CLI client
[05:48] <PipeItToDevNull> You are on android I see. It is a client for Linux that is run in a terminal
[05:49] <thatlizdude> ooh sounds neat
[05:49] <thatlizdude> I just discovered Mozilla Thunderbird
[05:50] <thatlizdude> it is email client, but has IRC client built in
[05:50] <PipeItToDevNull> Didnt know that
[06:01] <rud0lf> i guess most popular are mirc, hexchat, irssi and androirc
[06:01] <rud0lf> (in random order)

[06:14] <sebsebseb> wudo_honour: look at lpi for example
[06:16] <wudo_honour> thanks

[06:20] <EriC^^> morning lotuspsychje
[06:21] <IamTrying> How Ubuntu boots they are asking to give "swimlanes". Where is the "swimlanes" ?
[06:23] <lotuspsychje> thereyougo: can this help? https://askubuntu.com/questions/816076/how-to-install-grsecurity-in-ubuntu-16-04
[06:23] <lotuspsychje> thereyougo: there are many security scanners, specially for ubuntu in the repos also if you like, depending on wich security scan you wanna do?
[06:33] <lotuspsychje> IamTrying: can you hastebin the whole output you getting?
[06:35] <IamTrying> lotuspsychje: just normal default Ubuntu boot "swimlanes" i mean theres is no output. is there any "swimlanes" of it?
[06:35] <lotuspsychje> IamTrying: not sure i fully understand you mate, can you detail what your trying to do exactly?
[06:36] <IamTrying> lotuspsychje: i have a Ubuntu kiosk to a location. but there System engineer asking me to give the Ubuntu "swimlanes". I have no idea what that he means, i said you power on and you get the kiosk started but he want "swimlanes"
[06:38] <hateball> IamTrying: is "swimlanes" translated from some other language? I've never heard the expression
[06:38] <wudo_honour>  who have the realtek hd audio driver? can you share with me ?
[06:38] <lotuspsychje> IamTrying: wikipedia says its like diagram, flowchart
[06:38] <hateball> !bootchart
[06:40] <kenrin> Maybe he wants libreoffice opened
[06:40] <IamTrying> lotuspsychje: YES like those art/drawing things i guess. its very confusing with those stick neck engineers
[06:40] <wudo_honour> 5~5
[06:40] <kenrin> Libreoffice Impress ?
[06:41] <IamTrying> thank you hateball, i think "Emacs art mode"
[06:41] <IamTrying> or http://asciiflow.com/
[06:41] <lotuspsychje> IamTrying: so that leaves us the question of, you need a flowchart of what exactly on your kiosk?
[06:42] <IamTrying> lotuspsychje: i guess so. but its very confusing because the kiosk is nothing but Ubuntu boots and starts my custom Chromium
[06:43] <IamTrying> http://feimengspirit.com/images/blog/emacs/emacs-9.gif - something like this maybe?
[06:43] <kenrin> You are not making much sense.
[06:44] <lotuspsychje> IamTrying: maybe send your engineer an email back and ask what he really wants?
[06:45] <IamTrying> lotuspsychje: i send him already 'Emacs artist mode' diagram but again he is asking me 'swimlanes'. which confused me maybe i should send them the `/var/log/bootchart`
[06:46] <ducasse> IamTrying: sure he's not just joking with you?
[06:48] <IamTrying> ducasse: could be making me stupid like confuse me. cause in his email he said this week he is still busy with other project. by next week he want to do the meeting. so could be he planned to confuse me and waste my time?
[06:48] <IamTrying> i already sent him all type of Emacs artist mode drawings/arts.
[06:49] <Haris> hello all
[06:49] <sebsebseb> Haris: hi
[06:49] <Haris> what's the mod name for imagemagick on 14.04. I'v installed the mod. I need to enable it
[06:49] <Haris> I'v tried imagemagick, imagick
[06:49] <Haris> these nouns' do not work
[06:50] <ducasse> Haris: imagemagic has several component commands
[06:50] <ducasse> Haris: enable in what?
[06:50] <hateball> Haris: are you talking about apache modules?
[06:51] <Haris> php mod
[06:51] <Haris> imagemagick
[06:51] <Haris> php5-imagick
[06:51] <hateball> Clearly stating your question instead of throwing random words at the screen helps
[06:51] <Haris> 14.04.3
[06:51] <Haris> =)
[06:51]  * hateball backs away
[06:51] <Haris> I'v installed the mod. I just need to enable the php imagemagick mod
[06:51] <Haris> apache has no such mod
[06:53] <Haris> done
[06:53] <Haris> sorry I bothered. I should'v goolged
[06:54] <pynki> IamTrying, in a diagram a swimlane is exactly what it says. look at a professinal swimming poool from above and you see the lanes. do you have visio on a windows running somewhere? they have swimlanes to for flowcharts
[06:54] <pynki> hmmm already gone :/
[06:55] <thereyougo> lotuspsychje: but now when grsecurity is private it can't be used in ubuntu ?
[06:56] <ducasse> thereyougo: you'd need to set up everything yourself, it's not included
[06:57] <pierre367> hi! i'm trying to connect my bluetooth headset to my ubuntu (17.something) computer. I got it working using bluetoothctl and making the bluetooth device as a pulseaudio sink. However, my headset can also record audio, and the sound quality gets bad if it's the case. Other devices can disable mic recording which makes the headset usable. Does anyone know a way to do that by any chance please?
[06:57] <thereyougo> also anyone knows how to use wget over proxy ?
[06:57] <thereyougo> "wget --help" doesn't have any "proxy" option
[07:00] <sebsebseb> pierre367: the general sound configuration stuff may help for the os. the sound settings
[07:01] <sebsebseb> !pulseaudio
[07:01] <sebsebseb> hmm
[07:02] <sebsebseb> !info pavucontrol
[07:03] <sebsebseb> pierre367: theres something already built in for that, or try installing pavucontrol from terminal
[07:08] <Night___> hey, I keep this, anyone know howto fix it?  https://paste.ubuntu.com/24465321/
[07:09] <wedgie> what's the problem?
[07:09] <ouroumov> Night___, well as it says, you have to update.
[07:09] <ikonia> Night___: what is not clear ?
[07:09] <ouroumov> Night___, your system is no longer supported.
[07:09] <ikonia> it's telling you your OS is end of life, and you should upgrade to a supported platform
[07:09] <pierre367> sebsebseb: thanks, that did it
[07:10] <Night___> ouroumov: ikonia check whole, I'm running 17.04
[07:10] <ikonia> Night___: you didn't say that
[07:10] <ouroumov> wth
[07:10] <ikonia> you just said "I keep getting this"
[07:10] <Night___> ikonia:  2nd line, of pastebin
[07:10] <Night___> Welcome to Ubuntu 17.04 (GNU/Linux 4.10.0-20-generic x86_64)
[07:10] <ouroumov> Maybe that's just some kind of communication strategy in that case
[07:10] <ikonia> Night___: I assumed you upgraded your distro
[07:11] <ikonia> would that be right
[07:11] <Night___> from 16.10 yes
[07:11] <ikonia> Night___: so it's never been 12.04
[07:11] <Night___> no
[07:11] <Night___> I do not keep hw long enough for that
[07:11] <wannaswitch> 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] <ikonia> so thats the motd message getting the wrong message from the server that hosts it, the question is why
[07:11] <wannaswitch> yoga 710*
[07:12] <Night___> ikonia:  indeed, looks like more users are having it
[07:12] <Night___> seames like more users have this isssue
[07:12] <Night___> https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2358803
[07:12] <ikonia> wannaswitch: impossible to say
[07:12] <ikonia> Night___: where are you getting that info
[07:12] <Night___> ikonia: motd
[07:12] <Night___> simple enough to remove it from motd, but that does not fix root cause
[07:13] <ikonia> Night___: so if you'd upgraded from 12.04, that woul make sense
[07:13] <Night___> ikonia:  correct, but I upgraded from 16.10
[07:13] <ikonia> it looks like someone has just screwed up the motd message/url
[07:13] <Night___> well 16.04 -> 16.10 -> 17.04
[07:15] <ikonia> Night___: could you check if /etc/default/motd-news is actually the problem
[07:16] <Night___> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24465351/
[07:16] <Night___> not muc hthere tbh
[07:16] <ikonia> Night___: change enabled=1 to 0
[07:17] <Night___> yeah did that and saw the error
[07:17] <Night___> it is not dynamic, it justa cat from https://motd.ubuntu.com/
[07:17] <ikonia> it can't "cat" a url
[07:17] <Night___> curl*
[07:17] <ikonia> it has to download that as a local file
[07:17] <ikonia> basically, that motd message appears to be unmaintained
[07:18] <Night___> ^true,  early in the morning. saw it after i hit enter here that it should have been curl
[07:18] <ikonia> if you change it to enabled=0 what impact does that have ?
[07:19] <Night___> just tested it is gone now
[07:19] <Night___> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24465365/
[07:19] <ikonia> 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] <ikonia> as just hitting all servers blindlg saying update 12.04 is sloppy
[07:20] <Night___> indeed,
[07:20] <Night___> ill log a bug on rt
[07:21] <Night___> Than kyou ikonia. :)
[07:21] <ikonia> not a problem
[07:32] <Xatenev> Hi
[07:32] <Xatenev> how do I perform a specific command on pc start /login of my user that needs root rights?
[07:33] <Xatenev> specifically "route add ...."
[07:34] <PipeItToDevNull> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1245/add-default-route-on-boot
[07:34] <Xatenev> ah great
[07:34] <Xatenev> thanks
[07:34] <PipeItToDevNull> Yep
[07:36] <Xatenev> PipeItToDevNull, I added up route add -net 10.10.0.0/16 gw 192.168.0.192
[07:36] <Xatenev> that should work right
[07:36] <Night___> why not add a static route?
[07:37] <Xatenev> Night___, isnt that a static route?
[07:37] <Xatenev> :o
[07:37] <sepp> i want to install uhuntu 17.04,where can i enable nomodeset before the installation?
[07:37] <PipeItToDevNull> sepp, Hit "e" on the default entry, remove any other modeset options and type it in
[07:39] <Night___> Xatenev:  should not need to be radded on every boot
[07:39] <Xatenev> Night___, but I need to
[07:39] <Xatenev> Its gone when i just type it into CMD
[07:40] <sepp> 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] <PipeItToDevNull> sepp, Then it isnt booting, grub should display
[07:42] <sepp> i can click f6 for different options (try ubuntu without installing,install etc) grub is at the top
[07:42] <sepp> im in the grub screen
[07:42] <PipeItToDevNull> Hit "e" on the default entry
[07:44] <Night___> Xatenev:  reported
[07:46] <sepp> default is try.but i want to install ubuntu can i use install or do i need to click the default?
[07:46] <PipeItToDevNull> Any of then will work
[07:46] <sepp> im in
[07:46] <PipeItToDevNull> Into the edit mode?
[07:46] <sepp> yes
[07:46] <PipeItToDevNull> Remove any othr entry that mentions modeset then add nomodeset
[07:47] <Xatenev> Night___, you mean that is some bug?
[07:48] <sepp> with ' ' or just nomodeset?
[07:48] <ducasse> Xatenev: it's not, you need to add the route somewhere
[07:48] <PipeItToDevNull> 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] <Xatenev> ducasse, Im just confused what Night___ is trying to say
[07:48] <Xatenev> :O
[07:49] <azizLIGHT> how do i TURNT the BASS up
[07:49] <OlofL> 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] <sepp> i wrote it under linux and initrd
[07:49] <PipeItToDevNull> OlofL, just install gnome
[07:50] <azizLIGHT> OlofL: maybne your system wide files like in /etc/*
[07:50] <azizLIGHT> OlofL: some /var/log/apt/ logs to see what youve installed
[07:50] <ikonia> OlofL: the question is what do you want to keep
[07:50] <azizLIGHT> so you can reinstall them later
[07:50] <azizLIGHT> save a list of dpkg -l
[07:50] <azizLIGHT> i dunno
[07:50] <ikonia> taking random things will not help - and may actually cause problems
[07:51] <OlofL> 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] <azizLIGHT> ikonia: im sorry
[07:51] <azizLIGHT> i will shutup
[07:51] <ikonia> azizLIGHT: no need for sorry
[07:51] <Goojoopers> Incest is the best put your sister to the test
[07:51] <sepp> "booting a command list command nomodeset not found" it says
[07:51] <OERIAS> wow!
[07:51] <PipeItToDevNull> sepp, I am unsure, I dont not have an ISO to boot and test
[07:52] <ducasse> sepp: you must have added it in the wrong place
[07:52] <ducasse> !nomodeset | sepp see this
[07:52] <sepp> theres a list of possible commands when i click tab but nomodeset isnt listed
[07:53] <sepp> ok ubottu
[07:54] <sepp> how do i find out if i have an acpi bios?
[07:56] <leaderboss> hi
[07:56] <leaderboss> how do i change color12 /
[07:56] <leaderboss> in ls , sagemath the colors appear a bit too bright?
[07:57] <leaderboss> I read man rxvt, in that it is color12 to bright blue? I use unity/gnome-terminal obviously
[07:57] <leaderboss> but why does the bright blue color come from?
[07:57] <Ben64> what?
[07:57] <leaderboss> From where is it taken, and how can I change it?
[07:57] <ducasse> it's set in your terminal. also see 'man dircolors'
[07:57] <leaderboss> Ben64: When I do ls, sagemath, it shows the fonts in bright blue, some of them
[07:57] <leaderboss> gnome-terminal settings, I checked but couldn't find it?
[07:58] <leaderboss> it's not just ls
[07:58] <leaderboss> sagemath too shows the same colors
[07:59] <leaderboss>  https://ptpb.pw/Sjqc.png
[07:59] <leaderboss> look
[07:59] <ducasse> leaderboss: https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-terminal/stable/app-colors.html.en
[08:02] <leaderboss> https://ptpb.pw/LxID.png look it's still the same
[08:03] <leaderboss> that's bright blue is creating problem, and dont know from where is it coming? What's the source?
[08:03] <sepp> 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] <ducasse> sepp: something probably changed in the drivers since then. just try with nomodeset.
[08:05] <sepp> but it isnt listed in the available commands
[08:06] <ducasse> sepp: add it to the kernel command line in grub
[08:06] <sepp> how?it doesnt say
[08:07] <sepp> something with the command line?
[08:08] <ducasse> "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] <sepp> how do i access the boot options line?
[08:10] <ducasse> read the link from ubottu, it's all detailed there
[08:10] <GoBlackSystems> What are you trying to do sepp?
[08:12] <sepp> 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] <sepp> 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] <Ben64> sepp: its on the line that says something like "quiet splash"
[08:13] <GoBlackSystems> what version?
[08:14] <sepp> 17.04
[08:15] <sepp> i also tried siduction,manjaro only knoppix worked
[08:15] <GoBlackSystems> Ok so are you using a USB? Also how old is the PC you are installing it on... is it a duel boot?
[08:17] <sepp> i burned the iso an a dvd,i currently use windows 8.1 but if ubuntu install would work i would let it use the whole ssd so win gets deleted. x4 860k,sapphire r9 380,its 2 years old
[08:18] <GoBlackSystems> ok is windows installed with ueif in the bios?
[08:19] <ducasse> sepp: can you see the line that contains the words 'quiet splash'?
[08:19] <sepp> i dont know i just installed windows normally,cd in and started automatically
[08:20] <sepp> no ducasse
[08:20] <GoBlackSystems> I've seen that sort of thing happen when it's attempting to install with EIF on a mahing with an older BIOS... go into the bios and see if its using UEIF or Legacy boot method
[08:20] <sepp> my motherboard has no option to disable uefi,asrocm fm2+ extreme6+
[08:21] <sepp> ok i search again
[08:22] <OlofL> join #ubuntu-gnome
[08:22] <GoBlackSystems> also if it is using secure boot... with ueif. That you should turn off if it's on
[08:23] <ducasse> he can boot, so this isn't an uefi/legacy issue
[08:24] <GoBlackSystems> Ordinarily is the bios says nothing about UEIF it may be to old for it to exist... what is the date on your BIOS ?
[08:25] <sepp> ok i disabked secure boot
[08:25] <GoBlackSystems> If it's a legacy only machine you could have that problem and I've seen it in the past back in 12.04
[08:25] <sepp> 201511
[08:26] <sepp> i never enabled secure boot,it was always disabled.
[08:27] <GoBlackSystems> secure boot off and try again... also if there is not option to choose between ueif and legacy... open the file found on the bootable usb in /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[08:27] <ducasse> secure boot has nothing to do with your problem either. you are barking up the wrong tree.
[08:28] <flo_> hello to everyone . i'm triyng to disable a xinput device with this command: xinput set-prop 4 "Device Enabled" 0 but i get the following error: X Error of failed request:  BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied). can someone help me to disable that xinput device?
[08:28] <GoBlackSystems> Under "Install Ubuntu GNOME" right after boot= casper add noeif and try that out.
[08:28] <sepp> shall  i try the newes bios?
[08:29] <ducasse> sepp: no, you can boot, that isn't the problem.
[08:29] <sepp> bootable usb?i dont have one
[08:29] <GoBlackSystems> maybe... i just recall that happening to me in version 12 and that noeif swith solved it but it was an old server with no UEIF option in the bios
[08:30] <ducasse> sepp: no, you boot from cd, you said.
[08:30] <sepp> yes
[08:30] <ducasse> what happens on boot? do you get a screen with a keyboard and a small figure?
[08:31] <GoBlackSystems> oh well maybe modify it in the iso before burning it... either that or install v16.04 and upgrade from inside the OS
[08:31] <sepp> how do i open the grub.cfg file? can i do itnwith windows as it is still installed?
[08:32] <ducasse> sepp: what happens on boot? do you get a screen with a keyboard and a small figure?
[08:32] <sepp> on boot? will check it
[08:32] <ducasse> press a key on that screen.
[08:35] <sepp> i start my pc then it says american megatrends bios 2015 11 click f11 for boot menu del for bios menu
[08:35] <sepp> etc
[08:38] <sepp> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/664526 i think i was in the right menu,i didnt see quiet splash because it was outside the display,i try -- nomodeset now.
[08:41] <sepp> ducasse i found quiet splash
[08:42] <ducasse> sepp: ok, great. now just follow the instructions and add nomodeset.
[08:43] <sepp> behind nosplash i have 3---,is that ok too?
[08:45] <ducasse> sepp: leave them
[08:45] <ducasse> put nomodeset _at the end_
[08:48] <OlofL> When I work on many servers, how do I best use my .tmux conf and .vimrc settings on remote servers easy? Just copy the files or is there a trick to import local settings to remote ssh connections?
[08:50] <sepp> i did it but still black screen and 100fanspeed
[08:51] <ducasse> OlofL: i have a short script to scp those files to the machines i want them on
[08:52] <leaderboss>  https://ptpb.pw/Sjqc.png
[08:57] <sepp> error:vgacon disables nomodesetting. seems to boot now!!
[08:58] <sepp> thank you for all who helped me! :)
[09:00] <ducasse> sepp: you will probably need to install the right graphics driver after installation for the system to work
[09:00] <sepp> now i get another error NMI lockup cpu stuck for 22seconds

[09:29] <Delphin> how do you upgrade from 16.04 to 17.04?
[09:29] <immu> easy
[09:29] <ducasse> Delphin: via 16.10
[09:30] <cfhowlett> Delphin, sudo do-release-upgrade to 16.10 >>> 17.04     or clean install 17.04
[09:30] <immu> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/04/how-to-upgrade-to-ubuntu-17-04
[09:30] <EriC^^> Delphin: in software & updates enable checking for all releases then upgrade
[09:30] <EriC^^> Delphin: actually, it will upgrade to 16.10, then 17.04 , so 2 upgrades
[09:30] <cfhowlett> Delphin, but first: why do you want to leave a LTS release for a short term support release
[09:31] <rigault> ducasse, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24465729/

[09:32] <rigault> any idea why it would take so long ? It's like fsck was taking 10-20sec everytime
[09:32] <cfhowlett> Delphin, suggest you put 17.04 on a USB, boot up and test

[10:48] <victorila> `apt-key list` reports the key as expired?
[10:48] <Seveas> victorila: contact the puppet guys, not an Ubuntu problem
[10:48] <victorila> pub   4096R/4BD6EC30 2010-07-10 [expired: 2017-01-05]
[10:49] <Seveas> apt.puppetlabs.com is maintained by puppetlabs, not Ubuntu.
[10:49] <cfhowlett> victorila, try a different mirror
[10:49] <victorila> I know, I just wanted to know if I can force apt-get somehow, since I'm only installing puppet on test VMs at the moment
[10:49] <Seveas> victorila: install the puppet versions in the ubuntu repos..
[10:50] <ikonia> there is no different mirror
[10:50] <ikonia> and don't use the version from the ubuntu mirror - it's much older and may cause conflict with the rest of your estate if you've deployed from the puppet lab repo
[10:50] <ikonia> more so if you're using puppet 4
[10:50] <victorila> I am using puppet 4, yes
[10:50] <ikonia> then fix the puppet repo with the puppet guys

[13:16] <Pici> zukizukito: It may be helpful to clarify what help you're seeking with it.
[13:16] <nroetert> @zukizukito do you get an error message?
[13:17] <zukizukito> i tried opening videos with dragon player and it does nothing and shows no errors too
[13:17] <zukizukito> isnt thata little bit odd?
[13:18] <Pici> zukizukito: I'd start by opening a terminal and running it manually from there, and seeing if it gives you any errors
[13:19] <zukizukito> No file found for ".xml" , even though update-mime-info said it would exist.
[13:19] <zukizukito> Either it was just removed, or the directory doesn't have executable permission... ("/usr/share/mime")
[13:20] <AlecNord> If you opening videos why not use VLC media player?

[13:30] <corner_cubicle> Has canonical fixed the infamous network manager wifi (#1574347) in 16.04?
[13:30] <corner_cubicle> *wifi bug
[13:30] <EriC^^> bug #1574347
[13:31] <corner_cubicle> It's the only thing that's keeping me from 16.04 LTS. I'm still stuck at 14.04
[13:31] <EriC^^> corner_cubicle: ^ says fix released
[13:31] <corner_cubicle> Well, it does say that... but in the comments people are saying that they're still facing the issue
[13:32] <corner_cubicle> Does anyone over here have any issues with WiFi and suspend in 16.04?
[13:32] <Southern_Gentlem> corner_cubicle,  what distro do not have issues with that
[13:33] <corner_cubicle> Well, Arch doesn't... AFAIK
[13:34] <corner_cubicle> Is there a backport for network manager that I could try?
[13:34] <corner_cubicle> I can't see a network-manager package in trusty-backports, so maybe not..
[13:34] <aiena> I have a strange problem. I am using the PHP swiftmailer library to send emails. On the ubuntu 14.x system with the same mailserver configuration it connects fine (port 465, ssl). On Ubuntu 16.04 I set up pghp etc. Here the connection cannot be established. What could be the reason
[13:35] <lotuspsychje> corner_cubicle: did you update to 16.04.2?
[13:35] <aiena> lotuspsychje: no their are two seperate dual booted installs
[13:35] <lotuspsychje> corner_cubicle: alot of network-manager bugs are solved in .2
[13:36] <lotuspsychje> aiena: i was talking to someone else mate
[13:36] <aiena> ah sorry
[13:36] <aiena> yes figured
[13:38] <lotuspsychje> aiena: your on ubuntu server?
[13:38] <aiena> no both are regular ubuntu desktops
[13:38] <aiena> they just happen to have LAMP setup
[13:39] <aiena> one is KDE the other is unity
[13:39] <aiena> the 14.x one has unity the 16.x is kubuntu
[13:39] <rfleming> Greetings
[13:39] <lotuspsychje> aiena: could it be perhaps of init vs systemd?
[13:40] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: welcome, what can we do for you?
[13:40] <aiena> dont think so because systemd would control apache
[13:40] <aiena> apache is calling php fine
[13:41] <rfleming> Not much :)
[13:41] <aiena> in the sense that it is parsing and executing PHP
[13:41] <andi> Hi
[13:41] <rfleming> although if anyone knows how to get Ubuntu-Gnome to turn my displays off on the lock screen, that would be great
[13:41] <andi> I tried to add the ppa nginx/stable to my ubuntu 14.04 and I get the error: Error: could not find a distribution template
[13:42] <lotuspsychje> andi: we dont support ppa's here
[13:42] <andi> Google says /etc/lsb-release should look ok, but it looks like:
[13:42] <andi> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24466729/
[13:42] <lotuspsychje> aiena: not sure mate sorry, re-ask your issue with all details once in a while to channel
[13:42] <andi> Yeah, but adding ppas should be supported, or not?
[13:42] <Pici> andi: how did you try to add it?
[13:43] <andi> Pici: I used: add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/stable
[13:43] <rfleming> andi, PPA's are considered third-party and are not supported by Canonical
[13:43] <RonWhoCares> can anyone tell me the correct ppa for kdenlive in Ubuntu Desktop 17.04
[13:44] <andi> rfleming: I can absolutely understand that third party software is not support, but this error message comes directly from add-apt-repository which is part of the ubuntu core, or not?
[13:44] <rfleming> RonWhoCares, the kdenlive pages has the correct PPA
[13:45] <rfleming> andi, so it's add-apt-repository that is broken?
[13:45] <andi> It looks like that's the problem.
[13:46] <andi> The traceback I get reads like: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24466741/
[13:48] <Pici> andi: weird.  What permissions does /etc/lsb-release have?
[13:48] <rfleming> andi, This may fix your issue: https://askubuntu.com/a/733383
[13:48] <vagarwal> does anyone why a specific version of a package is removed from the repo? For example: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/1:9.9.5.dfsg-3ubuntu0.13 was available in repo on 11th April but it is not anymore. It has been superseeded by https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/1:9.9.5.dfsg-3ubuntu0.14
[13:49] <vagarwal> is it possible to find older version of packages from official ubuntu repo?
[13:49] <rfleming> vagarwal, for a variety of reasons, such as bug fixes, new features.
[13:50] <Pici> vagarwal: The changelog for the new package says why
[13:50] <rfleming> vagarwal, yep... just put the whole version in the apt-get install line
[13:50] <vagarwal> rfleming: there is a process in place where we first apply security patches in dev/qa environments. Once QA tests are passed, same exact versions are installed on the production
[13:51] <andi> Pici: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 105 Aug  1  2016 /etc/lsb-release
[13:51] <andi> Pici: Looks fine.
[13:51] <andi> rfleming: I'll have a try.
[13:52] <vagarwal> rfleming: i cannot find 1:9.9.5.dfsg-3ubuntu0.13 version in the repo anymore
[13:52] <corner_cubicle> lotuspsychje: I haven't tried 16.04.2 yet.. I guess I'll have to give it a shot. Thanks for your input
[13:53] <rfleming> vagarwal, you can use apt-cache madison bind9 to find all versions in the repository
[13:53] <vagarwal> rfleming: i will check it out now, thank you
[13:54] <lotuspsychje> corner_cubicle: always keep your system up to date mate
[13:55] <corner_cubicle> I am on 14.04.. if I'm not wrong, it is still supported by Canonical, isn't it?
[13:55] <rfleming> vagarwal, unattended-updates should apply security updates only
[13:55] <rfleming> vagarwal, it's a bad idea not to patch other packages though.  LTS releases shouldn't be installing new packages that break existing functionality.
[13:56] <lotuspsychje> corner_cubicle: yes of course
[13:56] <lotuspsychje> corner_cubicle: but as you was mentioning 16.04..
[13:56] <vagarwal> rfleming: for compliance purposes, i need to make sure i log what packages are being updated, test those systems and then promote it to production
[13:56] <rfleming> vagarwal, good luck! :)
[13:56] <rfleming> that's a nightmare
[13:57] <rfleming> (of a job)
[13:57] <corner_cubicle> lotuspsychje: Yeah, I was holding back from 16.04 'cause of this bug.. I'll back up my system and try upgrading this weekend
[13:57] <vagarwal> rfleming: it is in a way
[13:57] <lotuspsychje> corner_cubicle: okay good luck mate
[13:58] <vagarwal> apt-cache madison bind9-host doesn't shows the 3ubuntu0.13 version anymore
[13:59] <vagarwal> is there a way to find older versions of packages anywhere in a official repo?
[13:59] <vagarwal> this version is not available in trusty repos anymore: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/1:9.9.5.dfsg-3ubuntu0.13
[13:59] <Zalabaslea> packages.ubuntu.com
[14:00] <chowder> Hello all. I'm wondering if anyone knows of any Linux utilities for recovering or rescuing ntfs partitions
[14:01] <rfleming> chowder, rescue as in how?  Did you delete a partition and are trying to bring it back?
[14:02] <rfleming> chowder, if it's something like that, then I've had luck with TestDisk
[14:02] <chowder> rfleming: an enterprise data destrucion program, tabernus, somehow accidentally started to purge the HDD with Windows installed on it. I hit "cancel" before it started but know gparted reports that there is no partition. I'm thinking it wiped the MBR.
[14:02] <chowder> **now
[14:02] <rfleming> chowder, yeah, try TestDisk
[14:03] <vagarwal> Zalabaslea: packages.ubuntu.com doesn't shows bind9-host (1:9.9.5.dfsg-3ubuntu0.13) version in trusty repo
[14:03] <chowder> rfleming: I'll give it a shot. thanks for your help
[14:03] <rfleming> chowder, good luck mate.
[14:04] <chowder> rfleming: thanks again
[14:07] <rockyh> Hi!
[14:07] <rockyh> Why isn't this package available with `apt install'? http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/trusty/nss-pam-ldapd
[14:11] <Pici> rockyh: because thats a source package, have you tried installing one of the binaries that this package builds? i.e. libnss-ldapd, libpam-ldapd, etc
[14:12] <ioria> rockyh, apt-get source nss-pam-ldapd  if you really want it
[14:13] <RonWhoCares> I am at the point of reinstalling ubuntu 16.04 .  I have a few partitions setup on my hard drive.  Will my 'home' partition be erased if I do a fresh install?
[14:13] <rockyh> Pici: no, I didn't, but yes, the single packages are available
[14:13] <rockyh> ioria: ok! Thanks
[14:14] <zukizukito> hi
[14:14] <EriC^^> RonWhoCares: you could partition it manually, that'd be a better idea
[14:15] <bonsaitree> What is the difference between /dev/sdb and /dev/sdb1 ? I can't find any satisfying answer online
[14:15] <EriC^^> then add the home partition to fstab RonWhoCares
[14:15] <EriC^^> bonsaitree: /dev/sdb is the device name, /dev/sdb1 is the first partition on the device
[14:15] <rockyh> bonsaitree: /dev/sdb should be the whole raw disk, while /dev/sdb1 its first partition
[14:16] <EriC^^> yeah that's a better explanation ^
[14:16] <bonsaitree> rockyh, EriC^^ , thanks
[14:17] <rockyh> :)

[15:25] <nacc> rockyh: what do you mean "unique"?
[15:29] <hincha> rockyh do you mean this? amd64 build of nss-pam-ldapd 0.9.7-2 in ubuntu zesty PROPOSED produced these files: libnss-ldapd_0.9.7-2_amd64.deb (27.3 KiB) http://launchpadlibrarian.net/303475346/libnss-ldapd_0.9.7-2_amd64.deb
[15:31] <Guest36671> hi
[15:31] <Guest36671> hi
[15:31] <noob> hi
[15:33] <hincha> james_ non-official answer is that this may help: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2007530
[15:33] <hincha> make sure you back up your data
[15:34] <rockyh> nacc: nss-pam-ldapd should be a package which includes several packages inside. By a "unique" .deb file I mean a single .deb file that, when extracted, includes (and installs) all these packages
[15:34] <nacc> rockyh: no that's not how packages work
[15:35] <nacc> rockyh: nss-pam-ldapd is *source* package
[15:35] <rockyh> hincha: yes, but they are still multiple .deb files. Is there a way to obtain a single .deb files which is able to merge them?
[15:35] <nacc> rockyh:it doesn't include binary files
[15:35] <nacc> rockyh: it builds them
[15:36] <nacc> rockyh: it might build a metapackage that does that, but i don't know if it does
[15:36] <rockyh> nacc: ok, I didn't know it. How to install, anyway, all the contents of nss-pam-ldapd?
[15:36] <hincha> rockyh: this seems to answer your question, but it's not recommended https://askubuntu.com/questions/59094/create-final-deb-file-from-multiple-deb-files
[15:37] <hincha> if you want to do it the right way, you probably need all of the "Built files" from your original link
[15:37] <nacc> rockyh: are you on zesty?
[15:38] <nacc> rockyh: or why aren't you just using the zesty package (it's the same)
[15:38] <rockyh> nacc: I am not a developer. I run a Ubuntu 16.04 amd64 system
[15:38] <rockyh> I don't know what exactly zesty is
[15:39] <rockyh> hincha: here, Download section, three files are listed (http://packages.ubuntu.com/uk/source/xenial/nss-pam-ldapd). Can I use them to do what are you saying?
[15:40] <nacc> rockyh: don't install a version not for your release
[15:40] <nacc> rockyh: zesty = 17.04
[15:40] <rockyh> ok!
[15:40] <nacc> rockyh: those are the files that make up the source package. do not download them
[15:41] <rockyh> I found the link on Google and I didn't notice the different name. I was looking for xenial
[15:41] <nacc> rockyh: why do you want a newer version of nss-pam-ldapd
[15:42] <rockyh> nacc: no, I don't want a newer version. I am just looking for the correct version for my Ubuntu 16.04 system
[15:42] <nacc> rockyh: then just install it from the archive
[15:42] <nacc> rockyh: what package do you need?
[15:42] <rockyh> nacc: it doesn't work
[15:42] <nacc> rockyh: then file a bug
[15:43] <rockyh> nacc: `sudo apt install nss-pam-ldapd' says that the package could not be found
[15:43] <nacc> rockyh: because that's the source package name
[15:43] <nacc> rockyh: what package do you need?
[15:43] <nacc> rockyh: if you don't know, then you probably don't need the packge
[15:43] <rockyh> nacc: all the packages included in nss-pam-ldap
[15:44] <rockyh> in xenial it includes 5 packages, in trusty just three
[15:44] <nacc> rockyh: then use sudo apt install <each package name>
[15:45] <rockyh> nacc: if you think this is the only solution, I certainly can
[15:45] <rockyh> (in other OSs this is a single package, here is the reason why I was looking for a single package for Ubuntu too)
[15:46] <rockyh> (but it isn't a big problem to make separate installations)
[15:46] <nacc> rockyh: why do you need all the binary packages?
[15:46] <nacc> rockyh: i think you misunderstand, maybe, what packages are for?
[15:46] <nacc> rockyh: do you actually just need libnss-ldapd?
[15:46] <rockyh> nacc: yes, sure
[15:46] <nacc> rockyh: it will pull in whatever dependencies it needs
[15:46] <rockyh> but also all the other ones
[15:47] <nacc> rockyh: *why* do you need all 5 binary packages from nss-pam-ldapd/
[15:48] <gaetan445> jsalut
[15:48] <gaetan445> salut
[15:48] <rockyh> Because in order to properly configure an OpenLDAP client maybe all are required
[15:49] <rockyh> and because I don't know if all the packages will work, if some of them is missing because not installed
[15:49] <nacc> rockyh: you mean using openldap for authentication on your machine? libnss-ldapd and libpam-ldapd
[15:49] <nacc> rockyh: that would be a bug, as i said, if a package does  not express its dependencies correctly
[15:50] <rockyh> nacc: oh, right. Yes, openldap for authentication (the Ubuntu would be a client, server is already there)
[15:50] <nacc> rockyh: actually it look slike ther is a metapackage
[15:50] <nacc> rockyh: ldap-auth-client
[15:51] <lotuspsychje> !fr | gaetan445
[15:51] <nacc> rockyh: in the future `apt search ldap` and read the descriptions
[15:52] <rockyh> nacc: ldap-auth-client is the suggested one? Guides are not clear about it. Anyway, ok for the `apt search'!
[15:53] <nacc> rockyh: ldap-auth-client is nothing more than a metapackage which depends on libpam-ldap libnss-ldap
[15:53] <nacc> rockyh: note that the packages you were looking for were server-side, not client-isde
[15:53] <nacc> *side
[15:53] <nacc> rockyh: ldapd vs. ldap
[15:55] <rockyh> nacc: ok, I understand
[15:58] <wad> Hey guys. I have a problem. I mount my external USB SSD, unlock it, and I get the error "unlocked partition doesn't have a recognizable filesystem on it". I need to try to recover it. Where would be a good place to start? I think it's ext4.
[15:58] <lotuspsychje> wad: you can recover data with photorec
[16:00] <kikero> hello, guys
[16:00] <kikero> i did something stupid
[16:00] <Tiddlywinks91> Hello
[16:00] <wad> thanks
[16:01] <kikero> I had this lab in uni where you're supposed to load all sorts of commands
[16:01] <kikero> one of them is http://www.bitmover.com/lmbench/lmdd.8.html
[16:01] <kikero> I was kind of tired and I ran "lmdd if=internal of=/dev/sda6 count=1k "
[16:02] <kikero> basically, I wrote 1000 zeros to /dev/sda6
[16:02] <kikero> my laptop doesn't boot anymore now
[16:02] <kikero> welp
[16:02] <Mathisen> heh :) sorry
[16:03] <Southern_Gentlem> kikero, reinstall
[16:03] <Mathisen> did you have anything important that is lost now ? or can you go for reinstall ?
[16:04] <kikero> I can't reinstall from scratch
[16:04] <Southern_Gentlem> boot a live and see if you can recover your files
[16:04] <kikero> would need to recover what's on that partition
[16:04] <Southern_Gentlem> kikero, what you overwrote is gone
[16:04] <JustTheDoctor> how can i make my linux server THINK a domain is hosted on its self? on windows i'd just put the domain / ip in the hosts file.
[16:04] <kikero> well, that's just the first 1000 bytes
[16:04] <johnfg> hi folks
[16:05] <leftyfb> how often are packages built for PPA's?
[16:05] <Southern_Gentlem> boot with a live image and see what you overwrote
[16:05] <johnfg> I normally edit who's going to be allowed to sudo, with visudo.  On this brand new ubuntu 16.04 server, I don't see my name there, althought I have sudo privileges.
[16:06] <wafflejock> JustTheDoctor, check /etc/hosts you'd put it there
[16:06] <johnfg> btw...I'm coming from debian.
[16:06] <dax> johnfg: it's based on group membership, i forget whether the group name on Ubuntu is sudo or wheel, but there should be a sudoers entry for it
[16:07] <johnfg> dax: Yeah, I saw it, but it looked like it was commented out, but maybe I missed it.  Thanks!
[16:07] <wad> When installing ubuntu, and choosing the "full disk encryption" option, what filesystem does it use?
[16:07] <dax> wad: luks, lvm, and ext4
[16:07] <kikero> Southern_Gentlem, Mathisen: thanks!
[16:07] <wad> Okay, thanks
[16:07] <wad> There is a "dm-3" partition, anyone know what that is?
[16:08] <johnfg> A % is still a comment, right?  Because both admin and sudo groups have a % in front of them.
[16:08] <dax> wad: luks uses dmcrypt, so probably that
[16:08] <wad> Ah, got it.
[16:08] <EriC^^> johnfg: no, that means the field is a group
[16:08] <johnfg> Ok, got it EriC^^ thanks!
[16:09] <EriC^^> no problem johnfg
[16:09] <wad> So I'm trying to repair a "unrecognizable filesystem". Thinking of doing "fsck", trying to figure out what filesystem to specify.
[16:10] <JustTheDoctor> thank you
[16:10] <EriC^^> wad: does it have a uuid?
[16:10] <wad> I didn't ask for one.
[16:10]  * wad tries blkid
[16:10] <wad> I ran blkid, and got some.
[16:11] <wad> Oooh, that's useful!
[16:11] <wad> All kinds of good info in there!
[16:12] <wad> Here's the scoop: https://pastebin.com/HXMbrrQS
[16:12] <dakira> hey. is there an easy way to find out what apt keys belong to which repository (if the name doesn't tell)?
[16:12] <dakira> I want to remove all unused APT GPG keys
[16:12] <AstralStorm> hello, where can I get a new version of gnutls for trusty, with support for ECDH
[16:13] <EriC^^> wad: aha
[16:13] <AstralStorm> the one in normal repos doesn't support ecdh but openssl does
[16:13] <AstralStorm> which kinda breaks some applications, such as libvirtd
[16:14] <doubletoker> I installed ubuntu and I changed the network adapter after I installed is there a way to remove and reinstall it
[16:14] <AstralStorm> errors such as _gnutls_x509_get_pk_algorithm: unknown public key algorithm: 1.2.840.10045.2.1
[16:15] <johnfg> After install, /etc/hosts has got my hostname as 127.0.1.1  Not used to it being set to that.  Best to give it the ip it's assigned in this vm?
[16:15] <AstralStorm> doubletoker, see /etc/network/interfaces
[16:15] <johnfg> i.e., the ip number assigned to this host.
[16:15] <doubletoker> ok
[16:16] <wad> Okay, here's a more complete paste: https://pastebin.com/8zyRP1LA
[16:16] <doubletoker> it only shows the loopback
[16:17] <wad> When I plug in this SSD drive, Ubuntu shows a folder with some booty stuff in it, and asks for the passphrase to decrypt. I put it in, and it says "Unrecognized file system".
[16:17] <wad> I'm not sure which filesystem it the unrecognized one.
[16:18] <RonWhoCares> I just did the command    update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3    I got the error     update-alternatives: --install needs <link> <name> <path> <priority>    What do I use for   "<priority>"
[16:18] <wad> EriC^^ Did you see me improved paste? https://pastebin.com/8zyRP1LA
[16:22] <AstralStorm> doubletoker, yes, you can add more interfaces in there, see the nice wiki
[16:40] <Pricey> I've upgraded to 17.04 and pretty much all Qt based applications are exiting immediately with "Segmentation Fault". e.g. wireshark fails but wireshark-gtk is fine. What do?
[16:43] <skinux> Does Ubuntu Apache use http.conf or apache2.conf as default/main configuration?
[16:43] <Pricey> Bah... looks like it's due to bumblebee. "optirun wireshark" is fine for example...
[16:45] <hincha> i had posted a question about 1.5 hours ago: https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2017/04/27/%23ubuntu.html#t15:13
[16:45] <hincha> i also posted to the DisplayLink forums, since i think the root problem might be with their software. but it would nice to have any workarounds? http://displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=65296
[16:52] <wad> I mounted an external disk, from a different Ubuntu box, on my current Ubuntu box. The command "lvdisplay" shows that there are multiple entries with the same LV Path. Is this going to mess things up? (I'm trying to recover one of the disks.)

[17:21] <RonWhoCares> My sound card wasn't detected when I reinstalled Ubuntu 16.04 .  Any idea what I need to do?  the sound controller only shows "Dummy output"
[17:24] <lotuspsychje> !sound | RonWhoCares
[17:25] <lotuspsychje> RonWhoCares: while you mess around with sound try a tail -f /var/log/syslog to find usefull errors
[17:26] <RonWhoCares> My laptop sound card isn't installed
[17:26] <RonWhoCares> - output is showing "Dummy Output"
[17:26] <lotuspsychje> RonWhoCares: and there's a reason why in the logs
[17:27] <rfleming> Is there an issue with NVidia drivers and HDMI output?
[17:27] <doomlord> running gnome-shell on an ubuntu install: I find when i try to launch applications from the terminal, it tells me "failed to open display :0" ... is there a way around this?
[17:27] <rfleming> I can't seem to get that to function at all.  Always says it's unplugged
[17:27] <doomlord> it launches things from it's own launchers just fine
[17:27] <max100> anyone know why rednotebook is no longer in the official repo?
[17:28] <lotuspsychje> !info rednotebook | max100
[17:28] <lotuspsychje> in xenial its still there so it seems max100
[17:30] <lotuspsychje> max100: perhaps the #ubuntu-release guys would know that
[17:30] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: did you install the correct driver for your card?
[17:31] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, yep
[17:31] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: wich card and driver plz?
[17:32] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, NVidia GeForce GTX 750Ti, with the nvidia-375 drivers
[17:33] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: wich ubuntu version are you on?
[17:33] <max100> i added rednote ppa but i an error
[17:33] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, connecting two monitors (daisy-chained) over DisplayPort 1.2 standard
[17:33] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, 17.04 Ubuntu-GNOME

[17:33] <lotuspsychje> max100: we dont support ppa's mate
[17:34] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: did you have this issue on other ubuntu versions?
[17:34] <rfleming> Haven't used Ubuntu on this hardware
[17:34] <rfleming> (or Linux)
[17:34] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: okay, are there other drivers available in your additional drivers list, as a test?
[17:35] <max100> ah ok thanks for the info
[17:35] <lotuspsychje> !ppa | max100
[17:35] <lotuspsychje> max100: those can scramble your system and give you dependecy problems
[17:35] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, nvidia-375 shows as (proprietary, tested)... there's also nvidia-340 and Nouveau
[17:36] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: could you test another driver, just to see if that would fix the hdmi audio?
[17:37] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: another test would be to try an LTS version for more stable experience
[17:37] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, sure... some more info on what's happening.  pacmd list-cards show HDA NVidia, but none of the outputs show available.
[17:37] <rfleming> pavucontrol sees the 3 outputs and they're not muted.
[17:38]  * rfleming is downgrading driver.
[17:38] <CobaltFluoride> Hello
[17:38] <xiusfist> I just installed ubuntu for the first time what are some must do tweaks and apps I should install?
[17:39] <lotuspsychje> xiusfist: preload, rar,unity-tweak-tool,..
[17:39] <lotuspsychje> xiusfist: what kind of tweaks are you looking for?
[17:39]  * rfleming is restarting computer.  BBIAB.
[17:40] <xiusfist> lotuspsychje idk anything fun to mess around with
[17:41] <lotuspsychje> xiusfist: there are like tons of packages in the repos, impossible to name them all
[17:41] <scottjl> xiusfist: just browse through the store and install whatever you might like to try
[17:41] <lotuspsychje> xiusfist: if you need anything specific, ask in channel
[17:42] <xiusfist> lotuspsychje: ok lets put it this way. What are some fun things to mess around with that I couldent do on windows
[17:42] <lotuspsychje> xiusfist: thats also very general :p
[17:42] <EriC^^> mess around how?
[17:43] <scottjl> xiusfist: ubuntu is an operating system, just like windows, macos, and others. it really isn't "fun". you're going to find the same types of programs you do in any other OS.
[17:43] <lotuspsychje> xiusfist: thousands of fun terminal and GUI packages out there...
[17:43] <scottjl> you want a paint program? there are dozens (try gimp). you want a web browser? you can use chrome, firefox, and others, same old web.
[17:44] <scottjl> ubuntu isn't some magical new OS that does nothing anyone else can't do in the end.
[17:44] <scottjl>  sorry to disappoint
[17:46] <Dremo> Hello
[17:46] <lotuspsychje> Dremo: welcome, how can we help you?
[17:46] <Dremo> Do you know a lot about ubuntu?
[17:48] <lotuspsychje> Dremo: this channel is for ubuntu support questions, do you have a specific issue?
[17:48] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: any luck?
[17:48] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, no joy.  340 shows all Digital Stereo profiles as unplugged
[17:48] <xiusfist> Dremo: i read the manuel but I woulnt't call myself an expert
[17:48] <Dremo> Yes
[17:48] <Dremo> Can you tell me how to initiate photon alignment protocols?
[17:49] <scottjl> sigh
[17:49] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: ok, so anything related to that in your dmesg/syslog?
[17:49] <xiusfist> scottjl: ok well lets put it this way, what do you do in linux that makes it special for you?
[17:49] <scottjl> well, i get paid to work with linux. so that's special.
[17:50] <xiusfist> Dremo:  I did that in half life 1 once, it didnt turn out well
[17:50] <lotuspsychje> !discuss | xiusfist
[17:50] <Dremo> so can you do it?
[17:50] <Dremo> do you iknow how?
[17:50] <xiusfist> scottjl: oh that sounds neat, what certifactions do you have in order to get that gig?
[17:50] <scottjl> Dremo: do your photon processors run linux?
[17:50] <RonWhoCares> I just ran commands to install "pulse audio".  Terminal showed it was doing this.  But after rebooting it wants to remove them.  https://pastebin.com/akBSevq2  My audio device shows as a dummy output.  Any ideas?
[17:50] <Dremo> yes
[17:51] <scottjl> Dremo: apt-get install photond
[17:51] <Dremo> I think the linux is messing up the electromagnetic quark analyzer
[17:51] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, just that the kernel sees the soundcard as a device

[17:52] <rfleming> there are two other for PCM 7 and 8, as input17 and input19
[17:52] <rfleming> err input 18
[17:52] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: you have different kernels on your bootlist you can try?
[17:52] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, it's all the same
[17:53] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, I also get this in syslog: pulseaudio.desktop[4861]: Failed to open sound file.
[17:54] <xiusfist> why dosent ubuntu have show commands like ios?
[17:54] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: have you tried to restart pulseaudio?
[17:54] <rfleming> yes
[17:55] <Dremo> Lotuspsychje that wont work

[17:57] <scottjl> he's just here spamming.
[17:57] <ducasse> xiusfist: ah, _that_ ios. the linux shell is just built differently that cisco's.
[17:58] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, I'm assuming you want the class sound?
[17:58] <rfleming> lshw -C sound

[17:59] <xiusfist> ducasse: well shoot, thanks anyway
[17:59] <Dremo> Sorry I was uhhh....shaking my Lepton containment rod until it released W+ Boson Fluids...
[17:59] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: ok, looks like all drivers loaded up nicely.. can you check your syslog and dmesg for errors?
[18:00] <lotuspsychje> !ops | Dremo crosspost trolling (fedora & ubuntu)
[18:00] <Dremo> i did nothing wrong
[18:01] <ducasse> xiusfist: the linux shell(s) are intended for general computing, not networking devices
[18:01] <tonyyarusso> Dremo: This channel is specific to Ubuntu support, so please keep anything not related to that limited scope elsewhere.
[18:02] <Dremo> But i was needing support
[18:02] <Dremo> my Quantum entanglement Generator uses Ubuntu
[18:03] <tonyyarusso> Then ask about the Ubuntu parts of it.
[18:03] <axk4545> Dremo: ^
[18:04] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: somewhere in logs, should mention failed audio module or another error perhaps?
[18:04] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, there are no errors... but /proc/asound/card1/eld#0.[0-2] all show -- monitor_present 0; eld_valid 0
[18:04] <rfleming> Some NVidia documentation I read shows that that has to display a valid ELD for HDMI audio to function
[18:04] <rfleming> https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/787033/forcing-hdmi-audio/
[18:05] <rfleming> sorry, wrong document

[18:05] <rfleming> section 12.5 - Verify your ELD is Valid
[18:06] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: normally if drivers loaded up correctly things should work out of the box
[18:07] <rfleming> I agree.  I expect to see kernel hotplug events... but I don't see them
[18:07] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: another ting to try would be 16.04.2 LTS as a test
[18:07] <rfleming> Xorg.0.log show the same 'Adding input device HDA NVidia HDMI/DP' message, but nothing more
[18:07] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: hastebin your whole syslog? perhaps ill find something
[18:08] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, don't want my sssd stuff to leak out.

[18:19] <wafflejock> ash_workz, sure always good to have a backup though and recovery plan just in case
[18:19] <ash_workz> scottjl: do I have to put something in place so startup ssh before it needs to finish the installation (such that I can address any prompts and what not standing in my way)
[18:20] <ash_workz> (after the reboot I mean)
[18:20] <Larika> Hi all, I opened a new bug, please give a look maybe same issue affect you as well https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/1686802
[18:22] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: look from line 1110
[18:22] <scottjl> ash_workz: what you need to do depends on what version you're coming from and what version you're going to.
[18:23] <scottjl> ash_workz: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/installing-upgrading.html
[18:23] <ash_workz> scottjl: I thought that might be the answer :P
[18:23] <hincha> so i've been in and out of here today (https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2017/04/27/%23ubuntu.html#t16:45) ... trying to diagnose my problems that started after an `apt upgrade` this morning.
[18:23] <nacc> ash_workz: iirc, the upgrade offers *not* to restart ssh until it absolutely needs to
[18:23] <nacc> ash_workz: but i would also suggest having a serial console handy, always a good idea for remote admin
[18:23] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, how lovely
[18:24] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: i would suggest testing 16.04.2 as a test
[18:24] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: can you bootup a liveusb?
[18:24] <hincha> i just took a closer look at my most recent "Sorry, Ubuntu 16.04 has experienced an internal error" dialogs, and this one (for java-8-oracle) has the UnreportableReason of "This package does not seem to be installed correctly"
[18:25] <nacc> hincha: java-8-oracle is not an ubuntu package
[18:25] <nacc> hincha: ask oracle for support, i believe
[18:25] <hincha> no, but it seems to be a different program every error
[18:25] <nacc> hincha: right, but you've added non-supported packages, who knows what else?
[18:25] <hincha> is there a way to review these error reports i've been sending in?
[18:25] <nacc> hincha: if you have a lp account, i believe you should be able to find them
[18:26] <nacc> hincha: lp = launchpa
[18:26] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: this bug also looks similar to whats happening to your system: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1310260
[18:26] <nacc> *launchpad
[18:26] <hincha> i've had one at some point, although i don't think this computer is connected
[18:27] <hincha> the main problems i'm experiencing today are related to external displays / docking stations.  and could be a problem with the DisplayLink driver.   but that's completely unrelated to oracle java.
[18:27] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, I don't believe I have hybrid graphics like my laptop which requires bumblebee and primus
[18:27] <nacc> hincha: DisplayLink is also out of tree, right?
[18:28] <nacc> hincha: and not an ubuntu package?
[18:28] <hincha> i suspect the issue is related to the kernel upgrade, and there is a LP bug about i915 updates in 4.4.0-74 (?)
[18:28] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: indeed, but the symptons are likewise
[18:28] <hincha> but it would be nice to be able to check if the apt upgrade just fskced everything up
[18:28] <rfleming> lshw -C video shows only the GM107 as the only display device
[18:28] <nacc> hincha: ok, go back to the old kernel?
[18:28] <hincha> yes, DisplayLink is non-ubuntu
[18:28] <hincha> nacc: i tried that.  didn't help
[18:29] <nacc> hincha: ok, you need to ask DisplayLink. I've filed bugs with them in the past, because their code breaks pretty often
[18:29] <nacc> hincha: they might also be depending on something in the X stack that changed, etc.
[18:29] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: test 16.04.2 and if that works you can create a new !bug for 17.04
[18:29] <hincha> yeah, i think the first "sorry" dialog i saw today mentioned xorg.
[18:30] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, I'm going to try and load a driver from the graphics-drivers ppa first to see what happens
[18:31]  * phideas 
[18:31] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: ok try a few tests
[18:31] <nacc> hincha: so i'd first remove or try without displaylink -- in order to figure out if it's a bug in ubuntu
[18:31] <lotuspsychje> !away | phideas
[18:32] <nacc> hincha: also, if you are using displaylink because of, say, dell d3100 (or similar) display extender. I would recommend not using it :) it's not particularly performant and there are better usb-c options (I have found)
[18:32] <hincha> i thought usb-c and hdmi still didn't work?
[18:32] <hincha> they don't work for me when i plug hdmi into usb-c
[18:33] <hincha> so i have to use this docking station to get external monitors, which means DisplayLink
[18:33] <nacc> hincha: i have a usb-c dongle i use for hdmi
[18:33] <nacc> hincha: works great, no driver needed
[18:33] <hincha> nacc: is this supported in 16.04 ?
[18:34] <nacc> hincha: i'm not running 16.04 currently, but i was with it
[18:35] <hincha> well, i've got a big StarTech three display thing, that doesn't do anything for displays without DisplayLink.  and i've got a Dell DA200 thing that will do VGA, but HDMI only at 640x480 or whatever.
[18:35] <hincha> i'm going to find a straight usb-c to hdmi dongle to double check with ....
[18:38] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: perhaps test nouveau also?
[18:39] <kikero> hey
[18:39] <kikero> I ran Boot-Repair-Disk
[18:39] <g5> hi, i'm on an imac g5 als with mate 16.04 (good to be in the land of the living with it).... any way to make this machine run faster?
[18:39] <kikero> In hope that I can recover my partition

[18:40] <g5> hi, i'm on an imac g5 als with mate 16.04 (good to be in the land of the living with it).... any way to make this machine run faster?
[18:40] <rfleming> g5 new hardware? :)
[18:41] <g5> imac g5, it's 2004
[18:41] <lotuspsychje> g5: install preload, disable unwanted services at boot, clean system
[18:41] <lotuspsychje> g5: install an ssd
[18:41] <rfleming> g5, replace the regular HDD with an SSD
[18:42] <rfleming> should be a regular SATA drive
[18:42] <g5> sounds cool, will do
[18:42] <rfleming> 3.5" too
[18:42] <g5> why is ubuntu software center crossed out after sudo install?
[18:43] <rfleming> g5, more than anything that will improve your overall performance.  You can't do much about much else, but that should help.
[18:43] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: kikero needs your help :p
[18:43] <lotuspsychje> efi/partitions ill stay off
[18:43] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, I'm trying the beta driver 378.

[18:44] <g5> you guys rock, thanks for the help!
[18:44] <lotuspsychje> !cookie | guys
[18:47] <g5> i just installed preload, should it be in the control center?
[18:47] <lotuspsychje> g5: no just a reboot needed
[18:47] <hincha> nacc: well sh1t.  coworkers apple usb-c to hdmi adapter works fine.
[18:47] <hincha> i guess i need to get some new adapters.  thanks.
[18:48] <nacc> hincha: sorry about that -- yeah, i've found vendors to be pretty .. garbage for that side
[18:48] <nacc> hincha: note that also i think upstream linux is gaining some of this support (daisy chain, etc), but it's still not done, afaik
[18:48] <hincha> yeah, all my coworkers have macbooks.  i'd rather stay linux ...
[18:49] <nacc> hincha: yeah, they have the advantage of vendors caring :)
[18:51] <grendal_prime> use to be a chat client that that was just for local lan..did client to client with no server anyone know what that was called
[18:51] <kikero> lotuspsychje: I fix it
[18:51] <kikero> thanks!
[18:52] <lotuspsychje> kikero: what did you do?
[18:53] <kikero> I ran fsck from a live distribution
[18:53] <Oderus> anyone good at qml?? I'm trying to modify the breeze splash from having a black color rectangle background to a full screen image instead. here's the file. Wondering what changes I need to make at the top to achieve this? I'm clueless heh. https://paste.ubuntu.com/24468312/
[18:53] <lotuspsychje> !info qchat | grendal_prime can this help?
[18:54] <grendal_prime> thats not the one im looking for..this i believe was just one of the protocols available in empathy
[18:55] <rfleming> Ahoy hoy!
[18:56] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: working?
[18:56] <rfleming> lotuspsychje, nope.  Looks to be a kernel issue
[18:56] <rfleming> I'm seeing a lot of people with errors with the new linux kernel >=4.8 and the newer NVidia drivers
[18:57] <rfleming> at least in regards to the kernel taint thing
[18:57] <lotuspsychje> rfleming: tryout 16.04.2 :p
[18:57] <grendal_prime> found it, it was "salute" one of the plugins for empathy
[18:57] <lotuspsychje> grendal_prime: i see: Messaging account plugin for Local XMPP (Salut)
[18:59]  * rfleming is going to try kernel 4.4
[19:03] <rfleming> lol, that won't work :)  Only 2 mainline kernels.  4.10.0.19 and 4.10.0.20 :)
[19:08] <hincha> nacc: so you mentioned daisy-chaining ... so it doesn't look like i can get more than one external monitor out of one usb-c port?  at least not by going (computer usb-c) to (usb-c with hdmi and usb-c) to (usb-c with hdmi) ?  doesn't seem to be working in my testing
[19:09] <hincha> any idea if some sort of usb-c hub or something would let me connect multiple monitors ?
[19:09] <nacc> hincha: i've not tried it, tbh -- i don't believe properly supports it yet
[19:09] <hincha> ok.  thanks again :)
[19:10] <nacc> hincha: *believe linux properly, sorry missed a word :)
[19:10] <nacc> hincha: but like i mentioned earlier, i think it's supposed to be in-progress upstream
[19:10] <rfleming> nacc, supports daisy chaining DisplayPort++ 1.2 monitors though :)
[19:10] <nacc> rfleming: yeah
[19:10] <nacc> rfleming: DP vs. DL
[19:10] <grendal_prime>  ya that plugin woks pretty good.
[19:11] <grendal_prime> auto detects other clients on the same subnet. super simple to set up.
[19:11] <hincha> rfleming: how does that work?  my monitors do DisplayPort ...
[19:11] <rfleming> hincha, you need to have a specific DP IN and DP OUT port on your monitors
[19:11] <rfleming> you link the IN to the OUT on one, and the IN on the other to your video card
[19:12] <hincha> hmm... well, i have those on these monitors
[19:12] <rfleming> what video card?
[19:12] <hincha> it's on a dell xps13
[19:13] <akinode> hey, is it possible to execute a python script upon pressing a previously specified key or combination of keys?
[19:13] <speed_> help, i can not install anything "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"
[19:13] <rfleming> should work
[19:13] <hincha> i have a usb-c to displayport adapter.  i will have to try this out after i get another DP cable
[19:13] <akinode> like when i press ctrl+` then the script executes
[19:13] <speed_> i am running ubuntu 16.04
[19:13] <akinode> is there a program that can do that for me or can i do that manually?
[19:13] <nacc> !pastebin | use a pastebin and provide the exact command and output
[19:13] <rfleming> hincha, just make sure your monitors and video card support DisplayPort 1.2
[19:14] <nacc> speed_: --^
[19:14] <xiusfist> how do I see credits for who made ubuntu?
[19:14] <nacc> xiusfist: read debian/changelog for a package
[19:14] <akinode> or can you only assign shell scripts to keyboard shortcuts? if so, wouldn't it be enough for my script to call the script in one line?
[19:14] <nacc> akinode: you can run anythingn from a keyboard shortcut
[19:14] <nacc> akinode: iirc, just give it the pth
[19:14] <rfleming> hincha, most XPS 13 2015 model, or newer?
[19:14] <xiusfist> nacc: i was talking about ubuntu itself rather than a speciic package
[19:14] <akinode> nacc how?
[19:15] <akinode> how do i even specify the shortcut?
[19:15] <nacc> xiusfist: ubuntu is a collection of packages
[19:15] <speed_> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24468479/
[19:15] <speed_> here is my paste
[19:15] <xiusfist> nacc: oh yeah lol brainfart
[19:15] <nacc> akinode: here, if i hit the meta key (windows) and type "keyboard" it brings up the keyboard settings which is where all the shortcuts are
[19:16] <nacc> xiusfist: with some glue and other stuff, but it's almost all packages
[19:16] <nacc> akinode: at the bottom is a '+'
[19:16] <nacc> !info g15daemon xenial
[19:16] <nacc> speed_: --^ that package is failing to start
[19:17] <nacc> speed_: see the commands on line 32? Run those and pastebin the output
[19:17] <varazir> I have installed ubuntu-17.04-desktop-amd64.iso as a VM on my ESXi 5.5 host, now I just get a black screen after login, I can see the rightclick menu and applications but everything els is black
[19:19] <speed_> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24468493/
[19:20] <nacc> speed_: does /dev/input/uinput exist?
[19:20] <nacc> speed_: do you have a logitech g15 keyboard?
[19:20] <speed_> https://paste.ubuntu.com/24468497/
[19:20] <speed_> yes i do
[19:20] <speed_> no
[19:20] <speed_> i have a G%!)
[19:20] <speed_> 510*
[19:20] <nacc> speed_: :)
[19:20] <nacc> speed_: i would remove those packages then, and apt should be happy again
[19:21] <speed_> how can i remove them?
[19:21] <nacc> speed_: and then if g15 is meant to support your keyboard, debug why it fails separately
[19:21] <nacc> speed_: should be `sudo apt purge g15daemon g15stats`
[19:22] <hincha> rfleming: yeah, it's a 2016 (9360) model.   i'm working on it ... not sure yet.  might have to uninstall these crappy DisplayLink drivers and restart
[19:24] <rfleming> DisplayLink?
[19:24] <rfleming> eww
[19:26] <laxer> Displaylink is a horrible piece of software
[19:26] <hincha> rfleming: the DisplayPort chaining works!
[19:27] <hincha> i'm not sure if it was the DisplayLink drivers uninstall, or the IT guy giving me new DisplayPort cables that he _knew_ supported DP1.2, but it works!
[19:28] <rfleming> hincha, congratulations!  Welcome to the modern world :)
[19:33] <thundeer> anyone had succes installing ubuntu on imac?
[19:33] <rfleming> you just missed g5
[19:33] <rfleming> he installed ubuntu on a g5
[19:33] <thundeer> :/
[19:34] <thundeer> thanks. hope he returns.
[19:34] <thundeer> didnt find a guide on Apples website :D
[19:34] <rfleming> thundeer, you wanting to keep macos and dual boot?
[19:34] <rfleming> thundeer, you won't find guides on Apple's website.  They don't want you to experience freedom :)
[19:34] <thundeer> rfleming only ubuntu
[19:35] <rfleming> thundeer, what model imac?
[19:35] <minimec> akinode: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=all&section=all&arch=any&keywords=xbindkeys&searchon=names and documentation https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xbindkeys
[19:35] <thundeer> rfleming, I think its quite old. Maybe 7 years old.
[19:36] <anchnk> hello guys, I am facing a weird issue. When i enter my password within lightdm it terminates the xserver and goes back to lightdm's login screen
[19:36] <anchnk> i tried with unity and i3 and both are behaving the same way
[19:37] <tarzeau> out of disk space? quota?
[19:37] <anchnk> let me check
[19:37] <tarzeau> x logins want to write something in your $HOME
[19:37] <tarzeau> if they can't, they don't give you an error message. they just crash
[19:37] <anchnk> nah i still have plenty space available
[19:37] <thundeer> rfleming, I have a fast USB stick and a SSD disk. But Im in doubt. imac is 32 bit? or how does that work?
[19:37] <tarzeau> anchnk: then check your $HOME/.xsession-errors
[19:38] <anchnk> ok tarzeau thanks having a look
[19:38] <rfleming> thundeer, Well the really simple answer is this.
[19:38] <tarzeau> thundeer: your mac is made what year?
[19:38] <rfleming> thundeer, Apple wanted more flexibility, so they moved from an architecture called PowerPC (PPC) to Intel.
[19:38] <Bashing-om> anchnk: ^ " write something in your $HOME " maybe "yiu" are not authorized to access $home ' ls -al .ICEauthority .Xauthority ' ?
[19:39] <amazingalex224> hi
[19:39] <tarzeau> thundeer: macOS and iOS is mostly 64-bit since a few years
[19:39] <rfleming> but because everyone else runs Intel based Operating Systems, they put a chip on their hardware that prevents anyone else from running their software :)
[19:39] <rfleming> Ubuntu doesn't care about that chip and will happily install
[19:39] <amazingalex224> how do i fix this?
[19:39] <amazingalex224> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[19:39] <amazingalex224>  php-yac : Conflicts: php-xcache but 3.2.0-2+deb.sury.org~xenial+1 is to be installed
[19:39] <amazingalex224> E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
[19:39] <thundeer> rfleming, aah.. right. then its intell I guess. it ran on free bsd when I got it (osx)
[19:39] <tarzeau> rfleming: bullshit.
[19:40] <tarzeau> rfleming: it's not a chip they put in their hardware that prevents anyone else from running their software
[19:40] <anchnk> Bashing-om .Xauthority is owned by root and belong to root group that might be the issue ?
[19:40] <tarzeau> rfleming: you can install microsoft windows on a mac. so where's that chip?
[19:40] <thundeer> tarzeau, thanks. so maybe its too old, and its 32 bit.
[19:40] <tarzeau> rfleming: you can develop software on it and run that too
[19:40] <nacc> amazingalex224: talk to the ppa owner
[19:41] <tarzeau> anchnk: you login as user or root?
[19:41] <anchnk> as user
[19:41] <tarzeau> anchnk: in your home? remove it
[19:41] <rfleming> tarzeau, they bloody well do use a TPM chip to validate that the hardware is Apple OS compatible.
[19:41] <amazingalex224> no like i tried to uninstall php5.6 to get php5.5 because i need 5.5 for a panel and 5.6 isint supported
[19:42] <anchnk> tarzeau yeah I am just looking around on the net what this file does and is
[19:42] <Bashing-om> anchnk: Yepper ! ' sudo chown USERNAME:USERNAME .Xauthority ' now try and login .
[19:42] <nacc> amazingalex224: php5.5 is not supported on ubuntu 16.04
[19:42] <tarzeau> rfleming: huh? but that chip doesn't prevent you from running ANY software on it
[19:42] <rfleming> that's what lets you install Apple OS on Apple hardware... and why so many people have to hack through software on Hackintosh
[19:42] <nacc> amazingalex224: so again, ask the ppa owner providing the packages you are installing
[19:42] <amazingalex224> ok
[19:42] <tarzeau> rfleming: and their core os, darwin (mach) is open source, and can run on non-apple hardware just fine
[19:42] <tarzeau> (have fun, writing drivers for hardware they don't use though)
[19:43] <rfleming> tarzeau, correct, it's why I said that because Apple moved to Intel, they had to put a hardware chip to prevent NON-APPLE HARDWARE from installing Apple OS.
[19:43] <tarzeau> rfleming: oh please. it's just the drivers
[19:43] <simletra> how do i install java/
[19:43] <simletra> ?
[19:43]  * rfleming *sighs*
[19:43] <tarzeau> simletra: why?
[19:43] <nacc> tarzeau: rfleming take it to offtopic?
[19:43]  * rfleming gave up
[19:43] <tarzeau> nacc: i'm done.
[19:43] <simletra> because I need java u fuck wit
[19:44] <aruns_> Please no swearing.
[19:44] <anchnk> Bashing-om ok got it now it works weird I don't know how that file landed in my userspace
[19:44] <xan0v> Where can I find a list of other IRC channels that might better serve my questions?
[19:44] <rfleming> simletra, which Java, Open or Oracle?
[19:44] <thundeer> hmm. so what do i do? a 32 bit ubuntu will install? or do I need something more?
[19:44] <simletra> jdk
[19:45] <rfleming> thundeer, most likely 32 bit
[19:45] <nacc> !alis | xan0v
[19:45] <rfleming> simletra, there are two versions available.
[19:45] <simletra> well the one that works the best
[19:45] <MyStartx> Centos is the best ..ubuntu is for kids whob wants free lindows ..ha ha :))
[19:45] <rfleming> simletra, openjdk and the oracle version which is non-free
[19:45] <Bashing-om> anchnk: Most likely cause is "sudo'n" where you should not have been or running a GUI app as "sudo" .
[19:45] <simletra> i had to completely re-install ubuntu because the last time i asked for java help it fucked everything up
[19:45] <xan0v> Thank you nacc
[19:46] <thundeer> amazingalex224, you are most likely on a shared host, or you contaminated your local machine. take a look at Vagrant for local dev, and one of the cheap cloud hosts for production.
[19:46] <nacc> xan0v: yw
[19:46] <ducasse> !language | simletra read this and behave
[19:46] <simletra> no
[19:46] <anchnk> yeah I might have done something stupid like this Bashing-om thanks a lot
[19:46] <thundeer> rfleming, okay. thanks. I will. I just assumed a regular ubuntu usb wouldnt install on an imac. so maybe i misunderstood something.
[19:47] <simletra> i think you all need to take a minute be4 u try help me again
[19:47] <Bashing-om> anchnk: Not stupid - just thoughtless . we have all done it . ( GUI apps I start with the -H switch on sudo .) .
[19:47] <rfleming> thundeer, I don't know much about the mac hardware itself, but so long as you can boot from the USB, you should be golden
[19:48] <amazingalex224> im just gonna reinstall my dedi , and get php5.5 first using a ppa
[19:48] <thundeer> rfleming. I will give it a go. 32 bit is kinda cool.
[19:48] <tarzeau> thundeer: usb booting just came much later, you'll probably need a cd
[19:48] <amazingalex224> i had not much on it
[19:48] <anchnk> I was wondering does lightdm start the xserver the same way as if i would invoke startx ?
[19:49] <ducasse> simletra: drop the attitude, please
[19:49] <simletra> stop perceiving it that way
[19:49] <Zer0Day> hello
[19:49] <Zer0Day> hi guys
[19:49] <thundeer> tarzeau, wooops.. okay. thanks. so thats the missing part maybe. I will go look for a fix for that. sorry for asking here, but many of the online tutorials seem a bit sketchy.
[19:50] <nacc> simletra: the channel has language rules, if you don't follow them, then no one will help you
[19:50] <tarzeau> thundeer: pressing c is helpful too :)
[19:50] <simletra> bro I can read
[19:50] <simletra> tyvm
[19:50] <tarzeau> right after the noise
[19:50] <thundeer> tarzeau, hahha.. good one
[19:51] <tarzeau> with usb (later macs), i's the alt key i think (yandex/google it)
[19:51] <simletra> The issue still stands, I can not figure out how to install java, which java I need, or wether or not I am getting the right advicd
[19:51] <tarzeau> simletra: if you answered my question i could help
[19:51] <simletra> I have tried google, the wiki, and this channel, plus about 3 other resources
[19:51] <tarzeau> why as in for what java software do you want a jdk
[19:51] <Bashing-om> anchnk: Short answer os no, starts invokes different scripts . ( and trying startx in a lightdm display environment leads to breakage ) .
[19:51] <simletra> yet I couldn't manage to install it in a way that it would actually function
[19:52] <thundeer> tarzeau, hmm.. I will try. thanks :)
[19:52] <simletra> to play runescape on my laptop. really isn't complicated
[19:52] <tarzeau> Bashing-om: no, you can just do startx -- :1, does fine
[19:52] <nacc> simletra: that's almost certaina  jre not a jdk
[19:52] <simletra> well ok then, how do i install jre?
[19:52] <nacc> simletra: which version do you need?
[19:52] <akik> simletra: on my ubuntu 14.04 machine i have openjdk-7-jre-headless:amd64 installed by default
[19:52] <nacc> simletra: ask runescape if you don't know
[19:52] <ducasse> simletra: which ubuntu version is this?
[19:53] <nacc> akik: simletra and on 16.04 it's openjdk-8-jre-headless
[19:53] <simletra> i do not know, nor do I know how to verify which version I would need
[19:53] <nacc> iirc
[19:53] <nacc> simletra: i just told you
[19:53] <simletra> I did, I GOT NOTHING BACK
[19:53] <nacc> simletra: sounds liek a runescape problem
[19:53] <simletra> omg
[19:53] <nacc> simletra: not an ubuntu one
[19:53] <anchnk> Is there any advantages using lightdm over plain startx ? I am just wondering as I am a single user with only one window manager needed ?
[19:53] <ikonia> anchnk: why would you run startx
[19:54] <ikonia> why would you not use a login manager
[19:54] <anchnk> ikonia what are the advantages of a login manager ?
[19:54] <tarzeau> for a kiosk mode machine, to save memory...
[19:55] <tarzeau> anchnk: the login is already graphical vs a terminal
[19:55] <Zer0Day> is someone here familiar about the hax0r?
[19:55] <ikonia> anchnk: you have more options and you have a seperation of your desktop from the x config
[19:55] <Bashing-om> tarzeau: Depends ! on my xfce that command aids me in starting an addtional display on TTY8 .
[19:55] <ducasse> !ot | Zer0Day
[19:55] <hincha> now it seems like my newly connected DisplayPort monitors don't like waking from sleep.  laptop screen comes on just fine.
[19:55] <ikonia> Zer0Day: what are you talking about
[19:55] <hincha> almost the opposite of https://askubuntu.com/questions/854754/monitor-stays-in-sleep-when-daisy-chained-via-displayport
[19:55] <schaherm1cher> any support provided on this channel?
[19:55] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: support for what ?
[19:55] <hincha> if i unplug the usb-c cable, and plug it back in, the monitors work fine
[19:55] <schaherm1cher> ubuntu
[19:55] <tarzeau> Zer0Day: try #nethack
[19:55] <anchnk> ikonia tarzeau ok make sense then
[19:56] <anchnk> gtg
[19:56] <anchnk> thanks guys
[19:56] <schaherm1cher> i have installed on usb and my bootpartition for windozw drops i think
[19:56] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: this is an ubuntu support channel, yes
[19:56] <schaherm1cher> need to fix that for something
[19:56] <ikonia> boot partition for windows drops ?
[19:56] <schaherm1cher> i created report from bootrepair
[19:56] <ikonia> what does that mean
[19:56] <schaherm1cher> maybe someone can take a look
[19:56] <schaherm1cher> i can't load it got redirected to grub
[19:56] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: you've installed ubuntu to an external USB stick yes
[19:56] <schaherm1cher> yes
[19:57] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: when you boot do you get a grub menu ?
[19:57] <schaherm1cher> yes
[19:57] <schaherm1cher> i got error on grub actually
[19:57] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: does the grub menu config a windows menu item
[19:57] <schaherm1cher> but if i boot from usb it's fine
[19:57] <Bashing-om> Anthaas: Honestly .. in a single user system a login manager is useless overhead in my opinion . I run just fine with out and boot much faster !
[19:57] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: right, so what's happened here is grub has probably been installed onto your hard sisk
[19:57] <schaherm1cher> right
[19:57] <Druid-> just delet
[19:58] <Druid-> delete everything
[19:58] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: however the config files for grub are on your USB, so without hte USB stick being in, grub will not be able to load
[19:58] <ikonia> dannyLopez: stop
[19:58] <ikonia> dannyLopez: sorry, not you
[19:58] <Druid-> that was ur advice
[19:58] <mocxz> heloo
[19:58] <Druid-> u fucking idiots
[19:58] <ikonia> Druid-: stop
[19:58] <Druid-> NO
[19:58] <schaherm1cher> how can i fix that sir?
[19:58]  * dannyLopez dannyLopez stoped
[19:58] <ikonia> dannyLopez: sorry about that
[19:58] <schaherm1cher> btw ubuntu is amazing, am really new to that stuff but it's so flexible and powerful even from usb
[19:58] <dannyLopez> ikonia: ;) :*
[19:59] <schaherm1cher> i need to part my ssd and install it there
[19:59] <dax> should have gone with "hammertime" as the kick reason tbh
[19:59] <schaherm1cher> it's encrypted btw so i just thought maybe grub overwritten some loader from bestcrypt
[19:59] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: what I'd suggest you do is replace the windows boot loader on the internal disk - get your windows install booting properly
[19:59] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: from that point you can then re-apply grub to the USB and use that as a boot device IF you want to boot ubuntu
[20:01] <schaherm1cher> how to do that ikonia?
[20:01] <schaherm1cher> from lubuntu
[20:01] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: so if you join ##windows the guys from there will talk you through replacing the boot loader correctly for your config
[20:01] <schaherm1cher> thanks
[20:01] <ikonia> schaherm1cher: from then we can help you re-apply grub to the usb stick and keeping them seperate
[20:01] <schaherm1cher> okey i will try thanks for that
[20:02] <Zer0Day> when i tried to use macchanger in ubuntu i cant access the internet by my own wifi .. how could i fix this problem
[20:02] <ikonia> ha ha ha
[20:02] <ikonia> the irony
[20:03] <MyStartx> How are you ikonia?
[20:03] <ikonia> fine thank you
[20:03] <MyStartx> :)
[20:05] <mocxz> hi ikona
[20:05] <mocxz> ikonia
[20:05] <mocxz> hi ycheng
[20:05] <elky> mocxz: do you have a support question?
[20:06] <mocxz> yes elky
[20:06] <elky> what is it?
[20:06] <mocxz> how to install intel vga driver
[20:06] <mocxz> at ubuntu
[20:06] <ikonia> mocxz: shouldn't need to
[20:06] <ducasse> the intel driver should already be installed
[20:07] <mocxz> oh realy
[20:07] <mocxz> but why i got lagging
[20:07] <ducasse> mocxz: where? in what?
[20:07] <mocxz> wwhen i drag some window
[20:08] <mocxz> its cause driver or not ?
[20:08] <ducasse> which desktop?
[20:09] <mocxz> ubuntu desktop
[20:09] <ducasse> what kind of machine is this - cpu etc?
[20:10] <mocxz> um i use asus x453m
[20:15] <chalcedony> my husband has ubuntu 16.04. he somehow deleted? an important directory, which leads to lots of his other files. i don't know how he did it, he can't speak to explain. when i do ls Directory, i get nothing. and cd Directory, the same. Where to from here, please?
[20:17] <ducasse> chalcedony: do you have backups?
[20:22] <Zer0Day> how do you guys connect to tor nodes while using IRC clients?
[20:24] <Younder> You dont. Yo set up a thor node and then connect the IRC client to it
[20:25] <chalcedony> ducasse, he showed me that his computer is not currently seeing his other drives.
[20:25] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: There is extundelete - scapel tese might have a chance . http://extundelete.sourceforge.net/ .
[20:25] <chalcedony> he says that is not a new problem
[20:25] <chalcedony> wow Bashing-om *hugs*!
[20:26] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: Iffy though IF the data has been over-written .
[20:26] <ducasse> chalcedony: be careful, though, writing to the drive might overwrite what you are trying to recover
[20:27] <ducasse> !info extundelete
[20:28] <Bashing-om> ducasse: :) undelete ! was not aware was now in the repo :)
[20:28] <ducasse> has been for a while afaik. really best to install _before_ you delete the files ;)
[20:29] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, should we try to get it to see his other drives first. is there a way to get downloading undelete not to overwrite?
[20:29] <Pici> 25
[20:29] <chalcedony> ducasse, heh
[20:30] <ducasse> chalcedony: do you have the usb you installed with? you can install and run extundelete there.
[20:31] <chalcedony> he's got usb drive things
[20:33] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: " not currently seeing his other drives" maybe means the mount point has been deleted ??
[20:33] <ikevin> anyone know why when i upload files (using wireless connection) my wireless mouse come bugy, and when i download files it don't append
[20:34] <ducasse> chalcedony: see if 'lsblk' can see the drives
[20:36] <ikevin> when i upload files, the keyboard (who use the same wireless key) work fine
[20:36] <ikonia> so your wireless network card is on the same dongle as your wireless mouse ?
[20:39] <ikevin> ikonia, same usb hub so not the same dongle
[20:39] <ikonia> ikevin: try it without the hub then
[20:39] <ikevin> ikonia, it's a motherboard hub
[20:39] <ikonia> what ??
[20:39] <ikonia> a motherboard hub ?
[20:39] <ikevin> -hub+bus if you prefer :)
[20:40] <chull> ducasse, maybe it is, he thinks so :)
[20:40] <ikonia> ikevin: do you mean "they are both using ports on the motherboard"
[20:41] <ikevin> ikonia, i've 1 usb bus who is a hub for 6 usb ports
[20:41] <chalcedony> ducasse, chull is hubbys box
[20:41] <Bashing-om> chull: ( chalcedony ) : as above , we het any joy ' sudo blkid ' ? We need to identify what is broke where before jumping off the deep end .
[20:41] <chalcedony> he thinks yes it lists the drives
[20:41] <ikonia> ikevin: how do you know it's one bus ?
[20:41] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, okies
[20:41] <ikevin> ikonia, dmidecode and motherboard doc
[20:42] <ikonia> ikevin: what do you mean by your mouse being buggy
[20:42] <Ben64> sounds more like physical interference, noisy wireless adapter, too close in proximity to the mouse adapter, etc
[20:42] <ducasse> chalcedony: ok, if you can see the drives with lsblk/blkid that is a good sign. they might just be unmounted at the moment for some reason.
[20:43] <andrea_> hi everyone
[20:43] <ikevin> ikonia, hard to describe, like the mouse have a very bad signal, need 3 (or more) click to make a single click
[20:43] <andrea_> my name's andra
[20:43] <ikonia> ikevin: is the machine just working hard because it's transfering files
[20:44] <ikevin> ikonia, yes, and the keyboard (who use the same logitech dongle) work fine
[20:44] <ikonia> ikevin: yes what ?
[20:44] <chalcedony> https://pastebin.com/KxJKeMRU
[20:44] <ikevin> ikonia, and it just append when i upload some things, if i do download it work fine
[20:44] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, chull
[20:44] <ikonia> ikevin: is the machine just too busy for the mouse to respond
[20:45] <ikonia> (or respond well)
[20:48] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: So, next in terminal we go hinting for the missing files . Any idea what drive the "missing" files are on ? - We mount in terminal and "see" .
[20:49] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, the drive he's on, the missing directory is
[20:49] <chalcedony> 'Desktop'
[20:50] <ikevin> ikonia, load average are fine
[20:50] <ducasse> chalcedony: is the home directory on the second drive?
[20:50] <ikonia> not quite what I asked
[20:50] <ikonia> load average is not a test of how busy a machine is
[20:51] <chalcedony> ducasse, second drive where?
[20:52] <ikevin> ikonia, cpu, ram and flash drive are fine
[20:52] <ikonia> ikevin: how are you determaining that
[20:52] <ikevin> ikonia, htop, iotop and iftop
[20:53] <ikonia> ikevin: so then it leans more towards what Ben64 was suggesting
[20:54] <ducasse> chalcedony: in the blkid output there are two physical drives (hdd or ssd), sda and sdb. i'm guessing sdb1 is /home? can you pastebin 'df -h'?
[20:54] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: In ubuntu a drive is a physical entity that generally contains several partitions and these partitions contain the file systems . There might be several drives installed ( I presently have 3 drives on this system ) . To see these hard drives ' sudo fdisk -lu ' .
[20:55] <chalcedony> you guys are so wonderful
[20:55] <amazingalex224> how do i get my web server apache access to write to /var/www/html/gp
[20:55] <ikonia> amazingalex224: chmod it
[20:57] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: So long as you are trying we will try . who knows, someday you will be the teacher .
[20:57] <amazingalex224> like what do i type\
[20:57] <amazingalex224> it says Unable to write to: /var/www/html/gp/installer/cache/
[20:57] <amazingalex224> in my browser
[20:57] <ikonia> amazingalex224: you shouldnt be doing this
[20:58] <ducasse> chalcedony: if sdb1 is /home you can just go ahead and install extundelete, as it will be written to the root fs on the lvm volume on sda. no danger of overwriting anything on sdb.
[20:58] <amazingalex224> huh?
[20:58] <ikonia> amazingalex224: if you can't manage basic file system permissions, granting access to the webserver to be able to write, is bad
[21:02] <XV8> Does anyone know if Unity and Mir are going to be picked up and maintained by someone else since Canonical is not going to focus on it anymore?
[21:02] <XV8> Or at least Unity
[21:02] <dax> XV8: https://yunit.io/
[21:02] <xangua> XV8: /join #unit
[21:02] <xangua> #yunit
[21:02] <dax> they're in #yunit
[21:02] <XV8> Oh really? Neat.
[21:03] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, ducasse he's on sdb, from lsblk. here's df -h:  https://pastebin.com/
[21:03] <ducasse> chalcedony: we need the rest of that url :)
[21:03] <ducasse> XV8: canonical will still work on mir for iot devices aiui
[21:03] <ikonia> ducasse: really, so they are not dropping mir then, has that been confirmed
[21:03] <chalcedony> https://pastebin.com/nMRs0nCz
[21:04] <chalcedony> that will probably work better ducasse ;)
[21:06] <ducasse> ikonia: it was mentioned in a g+ post my sabdfl, iirc. pretty sure that's where i read it.
[21:06] <ikonia> ducasse: interesting
[21:11] <ducasse> ikonia: "we have lots of IoT projects using Mir as a compositor so that code continues to receive investment." - it's mentioned in his quoted comment here: https://betanews.com/2017/04/09/ubuntu-mark-shuttleworth-insults-mir-gun-control/
[21:13] <dax> so Mir will be about as relevant as Ubuntu-running IoT projects are, then
[21:15] <chalcedony> ducasse, Bashing-om did you see? https://pastebin.com/nMRs0nCz
[21:15] <__Yiota> is there any reason why services on 16.04 don't always start?
[21:15] <__Yiota> it's breaking a lot of our automation scripts
[21:16] <chalcedony> __Yiota, (im far from an expert) what sort of services?
[21:16] <ducasse> chalcedony: yes, sorry :) try 'sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt ; ls /mnt' and put that in a pastebin.
[21:17] <__Yiota> chalcedony pgpool2, haproxy, postgresql
[21:17] <__Yiota> pretty much all of them
[21:17] <__Yiota> have to force a service foo stop / start / reload
[21:18] <chalcedony> ducasse, ok :)
[21:19] <ducasse> __Yiota: try 'systemctl status servicename-goes-here' to see why it failed
[21:20] <ducasse> __Yiota: you can also use 'journalctl -u servicename' to see the whole log for that service
[21:20] <chalcedony> ducasse, Bashing-om https://pastebin.com/JMtD0Msx
[21:21] <inflatedpotato> hey guys, I want to setup a Plex / Torrent / Usenet / Automatic Movies / TV / Music Server
[21:21] <inflatedpotato> watdoido.tar
[21:22] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: ducasse And .. we have a /home listed . chalcedony what now ' ls /mnt/home/ ?
[21:23] <inflatedpotato> i'm assuming Ubuntu Server would be best for this?
[21:23] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, ok
[21:23] <ducasse> Bashing-om: that looks like another install
[21:23] <Bashing-om> dinet: re-look'n .
[21:23] <chalcedony> $ ls /mnt/home/
[21:23] <chalcedony> chull  vir
[21:25] <ducasse> chalcedony: just look under those directories if things look familiar
[21:28] <chalcedony> ducasse, chull@vir:~$ ls Desktop
[21:28] <chalcedony> chull@vir:~$
[21:28] <chalcedony> that is like a missing tooth.
[21:29] <ducasse> chalcedony: anything in 'ls /mnt/home/chull/Desktop'?
[21:30] <chalcedony> ducasse, no
[21:31] <ducasse> chalcedony: ok. i think we should forget about this. the safest approach is to use a live image and undelete the missing files from that, imo.
[21:31] <ducasse> chalcedony: that second drive just looks like another installation.
[21:32] <chalcedony> if he has almost the same things on two drives, could he do a transplant?
[21:32] <ducasse> chalcedony: what do you mean by that?
[21:35] <rfleming> I can't seem to get Ubuntu GNOME to put my monitors to sleep on screen lock
[21:35] <rfleming> seems to be related to NVidia driver/card combo
[21:35] <rfleming> works with nouveau, but I have terrible screen flicker.
[21:36] <rfleming> I'm running the right driver for my card nvidia-375 (double-checked) ... but all I get is a screen-blank
[21:37] <chalcedony> ducasse, he has another physical hard drive, with similar things on it. a backup if you will, although not entirely up to date for what he's lost
[21:38] <ducasse> chalcedony: right. then what i suggested is the best approach. do you still have the usb he/you installed from?
[21:39] <chalcedony> ducasse, asking him
[21:40] <chalcedony> ducasse, he installed from a DVD
[21:41] <ducasse> ok, and does he have that?
[21:42] <ducasse> chalcedony: you can burn a new one, it just takes more time :)
[21:45] <Oderus> anyone good at qml?? I'm trying to modify the breeze splash from having a black color rectangle background to a full screen image instead. here's the file. Wondering what changes I need to make at the top to achieve this? I'm clueless heh. https://paste.ubuntu.com/24468312/
[21:45] <Delphin> how can I reconfigure Xorg easily? I did Xorg -configure but I got "No devices to configure. Configuration failed." but it lists all my video drivers
[21:53] <chalcedony> ducasse, we found a usb stick. i cant find his stash of DVDs.
[21:55] <ducasse> chalcedony: ok, download and write the installer image on _another_ computer, so you don't overwrite when you download.
[21:56] <ducasse> chalcedony: Bashing-om will help you from here on, it's way past my bedtime and i need some sleep :)
[21:56] <chalcedony> ok
[21:58] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: I be here . when you are ready to continue from a fresh liveUSB done on a different system - ( as we do not want to write to this one ) .
[22:00] <chalcedony> ducasse, rest well thanks for all your help!
[22:00] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, great - ill do it on mine
[22:01] <ducasse> chalcedony: thanks, no problem and best of luck
[22:01] <chalcedony> thank you much ducasse :)

[22:20] <swampfox> hey

[22:24] <Bashing-om> swampfox: chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[22:38] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, formatting the usb stick
[22:39] <LordDragon> hey all
[22:39] <LordDragon> can someone explain what LVM install is?
[22:39] <LordDragon> im installing "ubuntu server"
[22:39] <LordDragon> ive installed plenty of desktop versions but didnt run into this option before
[22:40] <LordDragon> it wants to create an ext2 file system
[22:40] <ghylama> hello
[22:40] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: Stll here :)
[22:41] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: But the installer will format the stick anyway :)
[22:42] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, oh ??
[22:43] <chalcedony> LordDragon, todd?
[22:43] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: Ya on a 'buntu system ?
[22:43] <LordDragon> chalcedony: linda? ;)
[22:44] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, im on win 7
[22:45] <chalcedony> (((((((( LordDragon ))))))))))
[22:45] <LordDragon> chalcedony: *hugs*
[22:45] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, LordDragon wants the ext2 file system no?
[22:46] <LordDragon> ahh i think i figured it out
[22:46] <LordDragon> the swap partition must be ext2
[22:46] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: Nope, never mind and I do not know Windows . We see what the liveUSB checks like when ya done .
[22:46] <LordDragon> usually its just called "swap". i didnt know it was ext2 filesystem
[22:47] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, ok will wait for it
[22:48] <Bashing-om> LordDragon: I be the last person to try and expalin Logical Volune management . but on a server can be a good thing . But there is a learning curve !
[22:49] <LordDragon> Bashing-om: really? i thought it was just the filesystem. i didnt know its something i needed to learn about to just use ubuntu
[22:49] <Bashing-om> LordDragon: Be aware swap has no file suste, . that ext2 is for /boot I bet .
[23:20] <dirtyssouth> I just installed ubuntu server
[23:20] <dirtyssouth> and I can't connect to the internet
[23:20] <dirtyssouth> it's plugged directly into my ethernet cable
[23:21] <dirtyssouth> and it was able to download software from the internet just fine on install
[23:22] <dirtyssouth> but as soon as I booted into the main system, nothing
[23:23] <dirtyssouth> but when I run ifconfig, only the loopback device shows up
[23:24] <Bashing-om> dirtyssouth: What release did you install ?
[23:24] <dirtyssouth> 16.04.2
[23:25] <dirtyssouth> lshw -C network doesn't indicate a logical name
[23:25] <Bashing-om> dirtyssouth: K; and what returns ' ping -c3 8.8.8.8 ' - do we have a DNS issue here ? or ?
[23:26] <dirtyssouth> I'm actually not sure
[23:26] <dirtyssouth> also, I'll have to dc for a second to check, since it's plugged directly in
[23:26] <dirtyssouth> brb
[23:27] <Bashing-om> dirtyssouth: the ping result will be informative .
[23:27] <mahmoud__> hi
[23:28] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, it finished formatting, i told winrar to extract it to the thumb drive, finished that, gave it to hubby. told him to plug it into his computer.
[23:28] <bumblefuzz> Bashing-om I'm talking to dirtysouth on the phone
[23:29] <bumblefuzz> he says it says 'network unreachable'
[23:29] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: K; verify the copy : boot to the usb's boot menu and "check disk for defects " .
[23:30] <bumblefuzz> so, not quite a DNS issue
[23:32] <Bashing-om> bumblefuzz: -> dirtyssouth :; server: what have we in /etc/network/interfaces . Is the interface set ?
[23:32] <bumblefuzz> I already check that with him
[23:33] <bumblefuzz> auto enp3s0
[23:33] <bumblefuzz> iface enp0s3 inet dhcp
[23:33] <bumblefuzz> (in addition to loopback)
[23:33] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, he wanted to make sure you know his firefox bookmarks are still there
[23:33] <guvament> Is there a command to change my keyboard layout?
[23:34] <guvament> I've tried dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-cofiguration
[23:34] <chalcedony> but he had a lot of things in Desktop, not just those
[23:34] <guvament> But doesnt make changes
[23:34] <guvament> I've tried to set via install console-common
[23:34] <guvament> also I've tried dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
[23:34] <guvament> But I cant seem to change the alyour
[23:35] <guvament> When I press @ it shows "
[23:35] <guvament> Can anyone provide assistance?
[23:36] <Bashing-om> bumblefuzz: Local good ? ' ping -c3 127.0.0.1 ' ?
[23:37] <bumblefuzz> Bashing-om yep local's good
[23:37] <bumblefuzz> 100% received
[23:39] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: When we run extundelete we are going to retrieve ALL that the tool can find . bunches !
[23:39] <Bashing-om> bumblefuzz: On a router ? ping the router ?
[23:44] <bumblefuzz> Bashing-om, router unreachable
[23:45] <bumblefuzz> it's not hardware because it worked fine on install
[23:46] <Bashing-om> bumblefuzz: spare off the cable // try rebooting the router . The system is expecting DHCP from the router . seems not getting it .
[23:47] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, fantastic. its booting to the usb stick
[23:47] <chalcedony> well.. its in ubuntu
[23:47] <chalcedony> i dont know what its doing
[23:47] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: Small thing but the copy is verified ?
[23:48] <chalcedony> not really
[23:49] <chalcedony> Bashing-om, i downloaded it and gave it to him
[23:49] <chalcedony> if it needs stuff done.. on ubuntu?
[23:50] <bumblefuzz> Bashing-om still unreachable
[23:51] <Bashing-om> chalcedony: Legacy system; reboot the USB, as soon as the bios screen clears depress and hold a shift key -> language scrren, escape key to accept the default -> boot menu -> "check disk for defects " . // we will install the tool, mount the install and undelete files .
[23:51] <chalcedony> wonderful
[23:52] <bumblefuzz> ip addr only showing loopback
[23:53] <Bashing-om> bumblefuzz: verify there is no conflict ' dpkg -l network-manager ' I do not expect on a server that it be installed .
[23:55] <bumblefuzz> not installed
[23:57] <whydidtheydothat> Why does rsync now automatically add the -C (cvs ignore) option in 17.04? How can I stop that from being added?
