| babahulk | Hey all | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| babahulk | I failed it | 00:00 |
| babahulk | So I am on a liveUSB at the moment but can't seem to locate my main partition at all | 00:00 |
| babahulk | when I do boot repair I don't have any option to repair just create summary for help and then gives me link of like paste2.org | 00:01 |
| babahulk | no direct link | 00:01 |
| Bashing-om | babahulk: Ho Kay, in that liveUSB boot to terminal and pastebin ' sudo fdisk -lu ' let's see what we have to work to . | 00:11 |
| babahulk | bashing-om: I put that in and it just shows a bunch of small disks and the live USB | 00:15 |
| babahulk | https://pastebin.com/N7nxwGee | 00:16 |
| Bashing-om | natten: UnGood . No hard drive seen . Is this a laptop .. or is the drive easy to get to ? We got to "somehow" get that hard drive recognized . | 00:19 |
| babahulk | it is a laptop | 00:20 |
| babahulk | not sure if that makse it easier lol | 00:20 |
| Bashing-om | babahulk: ^^ sorry natten | 00:20 |
| natten | Bashing-om: haha, all good :) | 00:20 |
| Bashing-om | babahulk: Not a good situation to say the least . does GParted see the drive from that liveUSB GUI ? I hardly expect so as fdisk does not see it, but .. maybe - worth a try . | 00:23 |
| babahulk | so gparted just shows the usb | 00:23 |
| babahulk | but when I checked from windows partitions | 00:23 |
| babahulk | I was able to see all of them | 00:23 |
| Bashing-om | babahulk: encrypted ?? | 00:24 |
| babahulk | I have a password | 00:24 |
| babahulk | but never did the disk encryption | 00:25 |
| Bashing-om | babahulk: I m not at all Windows literate. maybe some one else here has a opinion on a best procedure here . | 00:26 |
| babahulk | lol | 00:26 |
| babahulk | ty | 00:26 |
| babahulk | So when I boot into Ubuntu I get dropped to the thing saying (initramfs) | 00:27 |
| babahulk | oot let me rebb | 00:28 |
| Bashing-om | babahulk: Real weird to me that Windows see the partitions, but 'buntu does not. We have a problem . | 00:28 |

| surfacelinux | Hello, is there anyone here who has successfully installed ubuntu on a surface book? | 01:05 |
| surfacelinux | I can't get the wifi to work for more than a minute | 01:05 |
| surfacelinux | after which time the kernel hits a bug and I have to reboot | 01:05 |
| surfacelinux | I've tried 16.04 and 17.04 | 01:06 |
| surfacelinux | I've also tried installing kernel 4.11rc8 but it won't boot | 01:07 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: what kind of chipset is your wifi? | 01:09 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, the driver is mwifiex, which is a Marvell driver | 01:10 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, how do I determine the chipset? | 01:10 |
| surfacelinux | mwifiex_pcie* | 01:10 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: sudo lshw -C network | 01:10 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: you can check there chipset & driver= loaded | 01:11 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, is this the chipset? 88W8897 | 01:12 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, I see the driver in the command output | 01:12 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: chipset would be showed as first line, brand + type | 01:13 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: driver= at bottom | 01:13 |
| surfacelinux | description: Wireless interface product: 88W8897 [AVASTAR] 802.11ac Wireless vendor: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. | 01:13 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, first three lines^ | 01:13 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: ok good | 01:14 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, have you attempted to get linux onto a surfacebook? | 01:14 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: here's what you could try: tail -f /var/log/syslog and disable wifi and re-enable wifi to catch usefull errors | 01:14 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: not personally, but i hear good stories from happy surface users here | 01:15 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, I can reproduce the error easily and it shows up in dmesg | 01:15 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, but once the error hits I would have to reboot | 01:15 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, it leaves the system in an invalid state | 01:15 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: surface 2,3 or 4? | 01:19 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, surface book | 01:20 |
| babahulk | I think I screwed it all up somehow | 01:20 |
| babahulk | Only drives showing up are a /dev/loop0 and /dev/sda1 which is my liveUSB | 01:20 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: seems like a known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1165938 | 01:22 |

| chilli0 | Hello :) can anyone help with byobu ? I am trying to ssh into a remote box, run byobu and get it to split the screens | 01:25 |
| chilli0 | whenever I do it using a new session it breaks for some reason | 01:25 |
| wedgie | chilli0: please be more specific about the steps you are taking and what "breaks" means | 01:28 |
| lotuspsychje | surfacelinux: few things you could try: search for modified kernel for surface book, or create a new !bug for 16.04 | 01:28 |
| AndresReyesTech | Hi everyone! | 01:28 |
| chilli0 | wedgie; ssh root@aws.surf -t 'byobu | /root/lgsession.sh' - this logs into SSH, then runs that script | 01:28 |
| chilli0 | however if I do, ssh root@aws.surf -t 'byobu -S test | /root/lgsession.sh' | 01:29 |
| chilli0 | it doesn't seem to run the script until I close the byobu session | 01:29 |
| wedgie | chilli0: ... I don't think that a pipe is what you want there | 01:29 |
| chilli0 | wedgie, I didn't really think so either.. but it worked for the first one | 01:29 |
| wedgie | does it work if you just delete the pipe? | 01:31 |
| Bashing-om | bazhang: Oh boy ,, We do have a problem ! .. OK, when booting, does bios see the hard drive ? | 01:35 |
| chilli0 | wedgie, it gives me unknown command | 01:37 |
| surfacelinux | lotuspsychje, okay, thanks | 01:37 |
| grendal_prime | ok i thought there was a way to run older versions of programs on newer releases in ubuntu. | 01:45 |
| grendal_prime | I have an app that i need to run on 1604 but there is no release yet. It does run on 14.04 isnt there a way to put all of the dependencies into one location just for that one program? | 01:46 |

| ubottu | grendal_prime: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 01:48 |
| grendal_prime | that works across releases? | 01:48 |
| antonio_ | Has anyone installed the ps3 media server recently? I can't install it on 16.04 | 01:50 |
| grendal_prime | i think what im looking for is apt-get build-dep | 01:53 |
| grendal_prime | it seems strange to me that this is not doable | 02:05 |
| surfacelinux | btw - still curious if anyone here has successfully gotten any linux working on their surfacebook, even if an old version or modded kernel | 02:06 |
| surfacelinux | any surfacebook owners here? | 02:06 |
| grendal_prime | i think the idea behind that is hardware dependency built in if i remember right. | 02:07 |
| grendal_prime | like the hardware looks for windows os | 02:07 |
| pd1 | how does hardware looks like "for windows" ? | 02:07 |
| grendal_prime | same way apple hardware and os rely on each other. | 02:07 |
| grendal_prime | i could be wrong but it seems like i remember hereing at one point that the surface hardware was specifically designed for ms os. | 02:09 |
| antonio_ | Does anyone use ps3 media server? It's not showing any of my files from my shared folders | 02:10 |
| pd1 | surfacelinux: https://github.com/jimdigriz/debian-mssp4 check this | 02:10 |
| grendal_prime | the same way euhfi...or whatever that new advanced bios is called. it was a windows thing they really wanted to make the bios only work with windows or at least make it very difficult to install anything else | 02:10 |
| surfacelinux | pd1, that's for sp4 | 02:11 |
| ShutemDown | What's a good virtualization software for windows? | 02:12 |
| pd1 | virtualbox or hyper-v ShutemDown | 02:12 |
| Jordan_U | grendal_prime: You can use a chroot or container of Ubuntu 14.04 to run the app. | 02:12 |
| pd1 | surfacelinux: https://www.reddit.com/r/SurfaceLinux/comments/4vomyi/state_of_current_linux_surface_book_support/ this is the source of the link... | 02:12 |
| grendal_prime | to virtualize windows or you want windows to be the house | 02:13 |
| ShutemDown | Is hyper v included with windows 10? | 02:13 |
| pd1 | surfacelinux: might help | 02:13 |
| grendal_prime | host that is | 02:13 |
| pd1 | ShutemDown: yes | 02:13 |
| pd1 | if you have the fitting ahrdware | 02:13 |
| ShutemDown | oh... | 02:13 |
| pd1 | ShutemDown: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/ | 02:13 |
| ShutemDown | I'll look into if I meet the requirements. I just got this new laptop | 02:13 |
| ShutemDown | thanks | 02:13 |
| pd1 | then simply: yes it will work :P | 02:14 |
| ShutemDown | :) | 02:14 |
| pd1 | if its not some creepy hardware from mars | 02:14 |
| grendal_prime | i3 does not vir host well | 02:14 |
| ShutemDown | I got I7, 12 GB | 02:14 |
| pd1 | ShutemDown: chekc the bios for virt things to enable and there you go | 02:15 |
| ShutemDown | Oh ok | 02:15 |
| grendal_prime | your good check bios to make sur it on | 02:15 |
| ShutemDown | ok thanks, you guys are great | 02:15 |
| pd1 | running it here on an i5-whatever without problems | 02:15 |
| grendal_prime | thats what my wife says too. | 02:16 |
| ShutemDown | She says pd1 is great? That's odd, you should look into that. | 02:16 |
| pd1 | ShutemDown: but virtualbox is the way more convinient solution if you have to deal with a desktop system as virtual machine | 02:16 |
| grendal_prime | thanks Jordan_U im looking into it. I thought i had to do this some time back. | 02:16 |
| grendal_prime | we play bridge sometimes | 02:16 |
| ShutemDown | ha | 02:16 |
| pd1 | ShutemDown: like 2-way copy paste, shared folders, etc | 02:17 |
| ShutemDown | i'll look into both options....It's just been so long since I've done this, I didn't know if there was anything new around (and had totally forgotten about hyper v) | 02:17 |
| grendal_prime | id continue with the forgetting if i were you...but the only virt solution i use is kvm | 02:18 |
| pd1 | if you are on a windows host then hyper-v is a great solution for running headless vms | 02:18 |
| ShutemDown | I think I'm just going to run a linux vm instead of managing 2 operating systems | 02:19 |
| ShutemDown | Now that i finally have the hardware for it | 02:19 |
| grendal_prime | i go the other direction...but i have to be portable and need the linux as the host . | 02:20 |
| ShutemDown | you have secure boot enabled? | 02:20 |
| ShutemDown | I know it's possible, but it seems like a bit of a headache | 02:20 |
| ShutemDown | I'm not willing to give up secureboot | 02:21 |
| grendal_prime | no i have more issues with the eliments than with theft. | 02:21 |
| grendal_prime | i run panasonic toughbooks. | 02:21 |
| === virtualriot is now known as sweetheart | ||
| ShutemDown | Its not theft I'm worried about...it's rootkits | 02:21 |
| pd1 | ShutemDown: if you need to worry about rootkits then you have way more important other problems... | 02:22 |
| grendal_prime | ya, i was just going to say the same thing | 02:22 |
| konrados | Hi again. I want to find all links to a directory, I found two options here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/429247/how-to-find-and-list-all-the-symbolic-links-created-for-a-particular-file | 02:22 |
| konrados | why the first answer: `find -L /dir/to/start -xtype l -samefile '/path/to/original/dir' has so much more upvotes than the second one: `find / -lname /path/to/original/dir` - doesn't the second solution do the same thing, while being much simpler? | 02:22 |
| ShutemDown | I'm not worried about them but if I can mitigate the risk then so be it | 02:22 |
| grendal_prime | well with that sort of mentality, you may want to just unplug the network card | 02:23 |
| grendal_prime | not to sound snarky. | 02:23 |
| ShutemDown | ANy risks that can be easily mitigated should be so | 02:23 |
| grendal_prime | thats the first thin i ask when hardening systems.."wich ones of these need network access and why" | 02:24 |
| pd1 | grendal_prime: better ask: who of these need users and why? | 02:25 |
| pd1 | the idiot with the usb stick will come... | 02:25 |
| pd1 | but thats all offtopic :D | 02:26 |
| grendal_prime | ya i do a lot of rpie stuff now and your right, there really only needs to be two users one root and user1 for excuting code outside of the actual system core | 02:27 |
| pd1 | konrados: you tired both commands? second one looks simpler but is it doing the same thing? if yes, the upvotes are for a nice answer that explains what it is doing | 02:30 |
| === doc|work_ is now known as doc|work | ||
| chilli0 | wedgie, any ideas? | 02:32 |
| konrados | pd1, thanks. Well, if it comes to 'trying' the thing is I have a 1 TB disk to search, and I know that both of these commands are *very* slow - it will probably take many hours. I just want to be sure that I'll call the *right* command :) | 02:34 |
| grendal_prime | wooo wooo hold your horses....this looks promissing...not what i had in mind but ill give it a shot. | 02:34 |

| akash_ | Hello children, you old chef needs help | 02:38 |
| akash_ | you see, I use ubunte mate, and please tell me how can i use windows 98 theme ? | 02:39 |
| YankDownUnder | akash_, You would decompress the theme and put it into ~/.themes | 02:40 |
| grendal_prime | probably there is a mint channel as well | 02:40 |
| akash_ | thank you children ! | 02:41 |
| akash_ | let me google that. I will find out how to do that. Just needed to know the "search phrase" | 02:41 |
| akash_ | why yankdownunder is green ? | 02:41 |
| akash_ | why I am black ? | 02:41 |
| akash_ | I am not talking about race though ! | 02:42 |
| YankDownUnder | akash_, ubuntu+mate+theme | 02:42 |
| akash_ | yep... | 02:42 |
| pd1 | maybe magic akash_ .... | 02:42 |
| YankDownUnder | akash_, It would mean that I'm directing a comment to YOU...hence "green" - fairly certain...depending on the IRC client... | 02:42 |
| akash_ | oh... I did not know that. thanks yankdownunder | 02:43 |
| wajideus | hoy | 02:44 |
| akash_ | ahoy mate ! | 02:45 |
| wajideus | so, I'm getting fed up with this keyboard bug on ubuntu :/ | 02:45 |
| sweetheart | What does it do | 02:45 |
| wajideus | it randomly presses and releases the shift key when I'm typing | 02:45 |
| sweetheart | Hah | 02:46 |
| pd1 | sure its not the keyboard itself? tried another one? | 02:46 |
| wajideus | it's not the keyboard | 02:46 |
| wajideus | brand new pc, problem doesn't occur on windows | 02:46 |
| YankDownUnder | I don't seem to recall having that issue...hmm... | 02:46 |
| sweetheart | Wonder what causes it | 02:47 |
| wajideus | eg, sometimes i'll be typing normally, and out of nowhere, it acts like I pressed shortcut combo like Ctrl-S or something | 02:47 |
| YankDownUnder | Wireless keyboard? | 02:47 |
| wajideus | other times, I'll be holding the shift key, and after I type 3 or 4 chars, it automatically releases the shift key (even though I'm still holding it) | 02:47 |
| grendal_prime | ive had that happen. I had to run that detect keyboard tool thing. | 02:47 |
| wajideus | the same thing happens when I'm trying to select text | 02:47 |
| YankDownUnder | wajideus, Is it a wireless keyboard....hmm? | 02:48 |
| sweetheart | Touchpad? | 02:48 |
| wajideus | holding the shift key, pressing the down arrow a few times, and then my text is just randomly deselected; it's annoying as hell | 02:48 |
| pd1 | wajideus: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/129159/record-every-keystroke-and-store-in-a-file tty this to get an idea of wehat it is actually doing | 02:48 |
| wajideus | &no, it's not wireless | 02:48 |
| wajideus | it's a laptop | 02:48 |
| Random832 | what kind of keyboard is it | 02:48 |
| grendal_prime | touchpads suck for that sort of thing to | 02:48 |
| Random832 | gaming keyboards sometimes do fancy weird stuff to allow more than six(?) keys to be pressed at once | 02:49 |
| wajideus | it's not a gaming keyboard or a wireless | 02:49 |
| YankDownUnder | wajideus, Find out what's running in the background - something that might affect the window manager (or desktop environment)...in some instances, "bluetooth" services could/would interrupt that... | 02:49 |
| babahulk | So after some searching and failures I made no progress | 02:49 |
| grendal_prime | the toughbooks do a good job of not being to sensitive. but my system system 76 was crazy for that sort of stuff. | 02:49 |
| wajideus | it's just the factory built-in keyboard on my laptop | 02:49 |
| babahulk | My only drives are /dev/sda1 (liveUSB) and /dev/loop0 | 02:49 |
| wajideus | and it's not a sensitivity issue | 02:49 |
| babahulk | my fstab is ded | 02:49 |
| babahulk | ubuntu@ubuntu:/$ cat etc/fstab aufs / aufs rw 0 0 tmpfs /tmp tmpfs nosuid,nodev 0 0 | 02:50 |
| wajideus | I'm noticed that when uses ncurses, if I press the arrow keys a few times, it acts like I hit Shift+Up when I haven't | 02:50 |
| wajideus | *nano | 02:50 |
| babahulk | I have no idea what happened. Everything was fine until my cat sat on the power button and it shutdown | 02:50 |
| babahulk | then all my drives disappeared from gparted and such and can't boot | 02:50 |
| babahulk | But when I swap to windows I can see the partitions for everything still saying its healthy | 02:50 |
| pd1 | "I have no idea what happened. Everything was fine until my cat sat on the power button and it shutdown" those harry monsters... | 02:51 |
| YankDownUnder | Can't always blame the cat. Cat's are blameless. | 02:51 |
| babahulk | lol | 02:51 |
| wajideus | there should be nothing running in the background. This is a clean install | 02:51 |
| wajideus | I should mention that the same exact thing happened on a vanilla install of archlinux | 02:51 |
| YankDownUnder | wajideus, Um...yes...right...nothing is ever running in the background. Never. Nada. Nothing. Nil. (extreme sarcasm) | 02:52 |
| wajideus | don't be an ass | 02:52 |
| pd1 | wajideus: record whats comming from the keyboard and see if the "shift" key input comes from the keybaord or from somewhere else | 02:52 |
| wajideus | I meant that there's nothing I've installed personally that could be messing it up | 02:52 |
| YankDownUnder | If the same issues recur with the same machine, then there would be something relatively evident to research - which would be the "keyboard driver" for that particular laptop. | 02:52 |
| pd1 | thats the only way to figure out where the problem is located since you say the keyboard is ok | 02:53 |
| babahulk | I wish I backed things up recently | 02:53 |
| babahulk | granted I can't even install without drives | 02:54 |
| pd1 | babahulk: you cannot get the harddrive at all when running from live usb? | 02:54 |
| YankDownUnder | *nix talks directly to hardware...so if hardware is flaky, then there is an issue in the communication between the OS and the hardware - which would be driver. | 02:54 |
| babahulk | just the liveUSB or a random loop0 which just started showing up | 02:54 |
| pd1 | live usb + another usb stick/hdd/external drive works? | 02:55 |
| babahulk | yeah | 02:55 |
| babahulk | it saw another drive | 02:55 |
| babahulk | but I disconnected it to prevent me from screwing it ip too | 02:55 |
| babahulk | ejected* | 02:55 |
| pd1 | its not you - its the cat.... | 02:56 |
| pd1 | ;) | 02:56 |
| babahulk | lol poor lana | 02:56 |
| YankDownUnder | CAT'S ARE BLAMELESS. | 02:56 |
| babahulk | I was in my grub settings | 02:56 |
| babahulk | and it has some UUID | 02:56 |
| konrados | Why when I enter `cd /home///` - I don't get any errors? Why can I create a symlink to `/home/////` - really, unix doesn't care about this garbage slashes? | 02:56 |
| babahulk | I didn't know if I should like copy that into my fstab? | 02:57 |

| YankDownUnder | wajideus, Right. Unity. Hang on a tick. | 03:04 |
| wajideus | but I'm 100% sure that has nothing to do with it, because i recently tried archlinux with both the i3-gaps and dwm desktops, and both had the same exact issues | 03:05 |
| wajideus | even running without a desktop environment at all, the issue is there | 03:05 |
| YankDownUnder | wajideus, Here's something to condsider - using "xinput" to "force" a keyboard layout. You can use "xinput list" to list the devices (input devices) that are on your system Armed with that information, you can "force" the keyboard to be, well, whatever...it's something worth experimenting with - especially since the issue is relatively a priority. | 03:07 |

| sunrunner20 | something funny is going on with my 16.04 server install, but i'm not sure what | 03:33 |
| sunrunner20 | it still had the cdrom repo | 03:33 |
| sunrunner20 | and now i'm getting this: sudo echo "chefserver" > /etc/hostname | 03:33 |
| sunrunner20 | -bash: /etc/hostname: Read-only file system | 03:33 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Could give it a quick "update/upgrade" and reboot - see if that resolves the issue...as well, you can install "rkhunter" | 03:35 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Every now and again - the disks need to be fsck'd - just as a matter of good maintenance and health...which - if you've not done so - is probably a good thing to do... | 03:37 |
| sunrunner20 | its a vm thats quite new | 03:37 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, All the more reason to fsck the "disks"...hmm...ain't like it's gonna take long... | 03:38 |

| segersjerry | I want to record from my usb audio interface from the command line. I have confirmed that the device works using audacity. I am trying to use arecord to do the recording, but I can't figure out what to put after the --device= flag. arecord -L lists it as card 1 device 0, but hw1,0 doesn't work. any ideas? | 03:39 |
| sunrunner20 | hrm | 03:39 |
| sunrunner20 | update seems to have hung | 03:39 |
| sunrunner20 | or a host is just taking its time | 03:39 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Patience...give it a few minutes...and if anything, you can always kill the process and try it again...hmm...could check the DNS you're using...either which...there's a resolution to that... | 03:40 |
| konrados | pd1, thanks again, I now know the difference between those two ways of looking for links. If we have two links one to /home and the other to /home/ (notice the trailing slash) - then using the first version with `-samefile /home` will find both. The second option, with `-lname /home` will find only the first link. | 03:41 |
| === root is now known as Guest24945 | ||
| sunrunner20 | dns should be good | 03:42 |
| wajideus | okay, I'm getting seriously annoyed | 03:42 |
| sunrunner20 | it was downloading from chef's servers just fine | 03:43 |
| sunrunner20 | I was drunk when I created the VM... I'm betting I just hosed the install in some subtle way | 03:43 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, No comment...ahem...yersh. | 03:43 |
| wajideus | adding i8042.dumbkbd to my grub config fixes the problems for graphical applications, but using shift+arrow keys in a terminal make it insert A, B, C, and D | 03:43 |
| sunrunner20 | lol YankDownUnder | 03:43 |
| sunrunner20 | at least its only modifications from stock are: I installed chef and enabled ssh | 03:44 |
| wajideus | also, the led on the caps lock button doesn't work | 03:44 |
| wajideus | because the whole i8042.dumbkbd thing is essentially a hack to work around the fact that the keyboard driver is crap | 03:45 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Always a good idea to install "rkhunter" (root kit hunter) as a paranoia - as well, always good to run an "fsck" on things when things are a bit freaky. | 03:45 |
| sunrunner20 | def not a rootkit | 03:45 |
| sunrunner20 | never been exposed to the internet | 03:45 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Then doing "update/upgrades" and a reboot is always good... | 03:45 |
| sunrunner20 | huh | 03:46 |
| sunrunner20 | update failed | 03:46 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, If the VM isn't exposed to the net, that's cool...nice and "sterile" and all that jazz... | 03:46 |
| sunrunner20 | ^c'd it | 03:46 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Reboot - try again. | 03:46 |
| sunrunner20 | it flashed through the list of remaining servers then complained about readonlny fs again | 03:46 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, OR...merely restart the networking: sudo systemctl restart networking | 03:46 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Reboot. Especially if it's getting freaky. Reboot. | 03:46 |
| sunrunner20 | fsck is freaking out | 03:47 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, If fsck is having a sh*tfit, then, um...something MIGHT be NOT right...hmm... | 03:48 |
| sunrunner20 | yea | 03:48 |
| sunrunner20 | I'm going to nuke and pave | 03:48 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, "Stick a fork in it, turn it over, it's done." | 03:49 |
| sunrunner20 | hey... where'd my 16.04 iso go | 03:50 |
| sunrunner20 | oh there it is | 03:50 |
| pxfgod | when I press ctrl+shift+f1 to switch to a new tty. my gui term stop run. for example. I run a chrominum on ctrl+shift+f8. it's surfing youtube.com, playing audio, after I switch to f1, voice is gone. why? | 03:50 |
| YankDownUnder | pxfgod, Because you've just switched the active session. The vid/audio is still playing - just NOT on the tty you're on. | 03:51 |
| pxfgod | it seems that chrominum process sleeps. | 03:51 |
| sunrunner20 | guestimate linux is already half done reinstalling | 03:53 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Kinda funny how fast a VM server installation goes, eh... | 03:53 |
| sunrunner20 | esp on SSDs | 03:53 |
| akash_ | hmmm | 03:53 |
| sunrunner20 | ISO is on my external HDD and vmdk is on a SSD | 03:53 |
| sunrunner20 | and I'm on a 40mbit down line | 03:54 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, SSD's *should* be "the norm" | 03:54 |
| sunrunner20 | for anybody making more than like $15/16/hr sure | 03:54 |
| sunrunner20 | that was a project at work that I ran that all the important people love me for | 03:55 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Um...hmm...can't comment there...not sure what "minimum rate" is here...I reckon it's vastly different, but. | 03:55 |
| sunrunner20 | some reason the IT head hancho ordered all the desktops as 32bit win7 | 03:56 |
| pxfgod | YankDownUnder, it seems processes run by tty8 halt. how to prevent from halting? | 03:56 |
| sunrunner20 | trying to develop on that *shudder*, ssds make it tolerable | 03:56 |
| YankDownUnder | Ooooo...32 bit Win7! Wow! | 03:56 |
| sunrunner20 | 2yrs ago I said f this and installed win7 64 | 03:57 |
| sunrunner20 | canabalized a machine for another 4gb ram | 03:57 |
| sunrunner20 | done installing lol | 03:57 |
| sunrunner20 | hrm | 03:58 |
| sunrunner20 | still have the cdrom repo again | 03:58 |
| shehin | hi | 03:58 |
| sunrunner20 | sigh, nuke pave, install by hand. | 03:58 |
| YankDownUnder | pxfgod, You've switched out of an active "application" - Chromium. The outputs are going to stop when you switch out of that tty. Since the outputs stop, Chromium stops. Because Chromium is watching the input/outputs. No way around it. Otherwise, don't use tty1 if you can merely use a different virtual desktop or open a terminal...hmm? | 03:58 |
| wajideus | Alrighty, I'm fed up with the driver nonsense. I'm going back to windows | 03:59 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, In not knowing what you're using for doing VM's - after you've done the installation, hand-edit the /etc/apt/sources.list - and remove the CDROM lines. THEN do your updates/upgrades... | 03:59 |
| YankDownUnder | wajideus, Have fun. I'll make sure that Mark Shuttleworth knows you're upset about not being able to use Ubuntu. | 03:59 |
| sunrunner20 | vmware workstation 11 I think | 03:59 |
| wajideus | good to know | 04:00 |
| pxfgod | YankDownUnder, what about to make Chromium a daemon? | 04:00 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Right oh. Well, do as I suggested. After the "server install", hand-edit the /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the CDROM schmutz. | 04:00 |
| YankDownUnder | pxfgod, Er...no. | 04:00 |
| sunrunner20 | I'd love to see a blog post about how keyboard layout detection questions were created | 04:02 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, If a hardware OEM makes something specifically for MS Windows - and ONLY for MS Windows, there's only a few ways to get around the BS...otherwise, "grin and bear it"...it's not like you can't just plug in an external keyboard and whatnot...and as well, it ain't like it's impossible to "force map" a keyboard and MAKE it work...but hey, some people want a "two minute noodles" solution... | 04:04 |
| sunrunner20 | YankDownUnder, it wasn't my drunken state that ruined the vm... aparently vmware's easy install and 16.04 don't mix | 04:14 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, Gather up rocks, throw them at the CEO of VMWare. Just not big rocks. Small rocks. But SHARP rocks. | 04:15 |
| sunrunner20 | lol | 04:15 |
| sunrunner20 | its likely because I'm using a 2-3yr old version of workstation | 04:15 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, you could blame that, yes...you could also blame everyone else...which is the norm nowadays...MEANWHILE, this is why I use VirtualBox...always...I can't blame aliens or Trump or the Illuminati. | 04:17 |
| sunrunner20 | yech | 04:17 |
| sunrunner20 | virtualbox | 04:17 |
| sunrunner20 | I have to admit vmware is the only thing i'm zealot-ish about | 04:18 |
| YankDownUnder | sunrunner20, The price is right. It's $0, $0 down, 100% finance, no monthly payments. | 04:18 |
| sunrunner20 | although now that I'm using android I'm starting to hate it | 04:18 |

| * YankDownUnder pets his Virtualbox | 04:19 | |
| sunrunner20 | backups, what are those? just use the cloud! | 04:19 |
| YankDownUnder | Clouds break. | 04:19 |
| sunrunner20 | the only thing thats driving me to android is apple dropping the 3.5mm port | 04:20 |
| sunrunner20 | and that itunes' music syncing is meh at best | 04:20 |
| * YankDownUnder pats his older Macs | 04:21 | |
| YankDownUnder | Yersh... | 04:21 |
| sunrunner20 | if android doesn't support my VPNs? | 04:21 |

I do - DO suggest getting it all solid prior to installing your databases and all that jazz on it... | 04:24 |

| ducasse | cousteau: no, so you won't be getting the actual service, but just the tool(s) to set it up. i'm guessing here, though. | 09:09 |
| ducasse | live: afaik you should disable that if you use linux | 09:10 |
| cousteau | ducasse, yeah, that was what I was thinking as well | 09:12 |
| cousteau | package content is http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise-updates/all/ubuntu-advantage-tools/filelist | 09:12 |
| ducasse | cousteau: i assume it works like the kernel livepatch thingy, and is linked to an account. but as the factoid said, this is outside what is supported here, you need to ask canonical for details. | 09:13 |
| cousteau | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+bug/1686183 and the introductory bug report | 09:13 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1686183 in ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) "Ship ubuntu-advantage in ubuntu-minimal" [Undecided,New] | 09:13 |
| cousteau | ah, sorry | 09:14 |
| ducasse | cousteau: it's nothing to be sorry about :) you can ask about it here, we just can't tell you very much or help you with actual problems with the service :) | 09:22 |
| cousteau | yeah, but you know, the noise... | 09:22 |
| ducasse | you might want to try emailing or calling them if you want the service or want to know more. | 09:23 |
| cousteau | no, I don't think I'll be getting it; I'm finishing my work with this computer anyway and after that it'll likely be formatted | 09:24 |
| cousteau | hm, if I install that package I'll get an annoying notification in the MOTD every time I connect via ssh... | 09:24 |
| ducasse | probably a script in /etc/update-motd.d that you can just disable | 09:25 |
| cousteau | yes, that's how I knew I'd get that message; I downloaded the package and I'm inspecting it | 09:26 |
| newbie_ | Hey guys, am having a slight wifi issue on my Dell Xps 13 running Kubuntu 16.04 | 09:27 |
| BillKGR | newbie_, elaborate a bit more | 09:27 |
| newbie_ | it shows all the connections, but once I put in all the info (username, password, security settings, etc.) it says 'for accessing the WiFi network you need to provide a password' and two little popups come up saying wifi deactivated and no secrets were provided. I tried my WiFi password again here which i know to be 100% correct and checked thoroughly, but it still doesn't work. Am I missing something really simple or is there ano | 09:27 |
| ducasse | cousteau: to remove it you probably need to remove ubuntu-minimal as well, and that can/will break upgrades | 09:27 |
| cousteau | I think I'll leave the update rotting there until it gets some extra stuff | 09:28 |
| === DeadKaptain is now known as Slumbering_Dog | ||
| cousteau | anyway I don't think the solution is to get paid support; if I really cared about security and updates I'd have upgraded my ubuntu. It's been long since I've started noticing that precise is getting "rotten" | 09:29 |
| BillKGR | cousteau, with a quick gsearch I found this: network manager -> manage connections->edit -> check system connection , try it and tell me if it worked | 09:29 |
| cousteau | (like, no support anywhere) | 09:30 |
| cousteau | BillKGR, I bet newbie_ will like to know that as well :) | 09:30 |
| BillKGR | haaaa, sorry cousteau :) | 09:30 |
| === Slumbering_Dog is now known as zZDog | ||

| cousteau | is it not right-clicking the network icon? (sorry, I don't use Kubuntu; but it's how it typically works) | 09:36 |
| newbie_ | right clicking it takes me to "configure network connections" | 09:36 |

| invariant1729 | Hi, I can't download adobe flash player on my ubuntu 16.04 LTS | 10:06 |
| invariant1729 | I went to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ | 10:06 |
| invariant1729 | downloaded the required files | 10:07 |
| invariant1729 | followed the readme.txt file for installation but it didn't work | 10:07 |
| maffh | rdanter: I just this command to install: apt-get install linux-tools-common linux-tools-generic linux-tools-`uname -r` | 10:08 |
| maffh | just=used | 10:08 |
| invariant1729 | still the sites can't detect flash player installed on my system | 10:08 |
| maffh | I am using ubuntu version 16.04 | 10:08 |
| rdanter | maffh: hmm, ok, to use perf for userspace only, like ls, you don't need to use sudo | 10:09 |
| Guest48155 | hi .i try to install siesta in ubuntu 17 .but when i type" sude make "after that i go to obj file to open siesta program but it cant opent it.what should i do ? | 10:09 |
| ducasse | invariant1729: wrong way to install it. install the adobe-flashplugin package instead. | 10:09 |
| ducasse | can firefox even do flash anymore? | 10:10 |
| maffh | rdanter: When I use it without sudo it complains about that I dont have permission. This is the error I receive: You may not have permission to collect stats. | 10:10 |
| rdanter | maffh: i just tried this: "perf recorg -g la /" and then "perf report --stdio" and it works (except no kernel symbols) | 10:10 |
| invariant1729 | ducasse: No | 10:10 |
| ducasse | invariant1729: no to what? | 10:11 |
| invariant1729 | ducasse: you asked "can firefox even do flash anymore?" | 10:12 |
| sobersabre | hi, I have font layout problems with terminal + bash-it | 10:12 |
| sobersabre | using terminal emulator called 'tilix', but it reproduces on any emulation. | 10:12 |
| ducasse | invariant1729: which browser are you using? | 10:12 |
| rdanter | maffh: repeated test with sudo, same results but with kernel symbols included. Tested on both 14.04 and 16.04 | 10:12 |
| invariant1729 | ducasse: chromium. I want it to be enabled in chromim | 10:12 |
| ducasse | invariant1729: then do like i told you. | 10:12 |
| cfhowlett | chromium comes with flash support IIRC | 10:13 |
| hateball | not ootb no | 10:13 |
| maffh | @rdanter : When I try to run "sudo perf report --stdio" it resulted in the following error : "File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)" | 10:13 |
| ducasse | cfhowlett: no, you need pepperflash from chrome afaik | 10:13 |
| invariant1729 | ducasse: Should I use the apt tool? | 10:13 |
| rdanter | maffh: you need to use sudo for both record and report | 10:13 |
| maffh | and when I use -f it says "zero-sized file (perf.data), nothing to do!" | 10:13 |
| ducasse | invariant1729: yes | 10:13 |
| hateball | invariant1729: for pepperflash you want "apt install pepperflashplugin-nonfree" | 10:13 |
| hateball | or if you want flash for both firefox and chromium use apt install adobe-flashplugin | 10:14 |
| hateball | needs partner repo enabled | 10:14 |
| hateball | adobe-flashplugin also has the upside of properly updating flash through apt, whereas with pepperflash alone you need to run a standalone check | 10:14 |
| ducasse | which is why i told him to use that :) | 10:15 |
| rdanter | maffh: also make sure you are in a directory where files can be written | 10:15 |
| hateball | ducasse: ah, sorry didnt see that | 10:15 |
| invariant1729 | hateball: Ok. Thanks | 10:15 |
| invariant1729 | ducasse: Thanks man. | 10:16 |
| hateball | also yes firefox does flash, but it's the only npapi plugin it supports now :o | 10:16 |
| ducasse | sobersabre: can you be more specific? | 10:16 |
| invariant1729 | hateball: What's the difference between this npapi and ppapi? what's all this jargon? | 10:16 |
| hateball | invariant1729: npapi is what firefox uses, ppapi is what chromium uses | 10:17 |
| invariant1729 | hateball: Ok | 10:17 |
| hateball | just... different APIs | 10:18 |
| maffh | rdanter: I changed the permission of the directory to chmod 777 and rerun your comments, but it still resulted into the same answer. | 10:18 |
| hateball | invariant1729: again, installing the adobe-flashplugin package will fetch the right stuff regardless of which | 10:18 |
| rdanter | maffh: which ubuntu version? | 10:18 |
| invariant1729 | hateball: oh, I see. | 10:18 |
| maffh | ubuntu 16.04 LTS 64 BIT | 10:19 |
| invariant1729 | hateball: Is there any way to install it without using apt? I mean install it via tar.gz file? | 10:20 |
| ash___ | please tell me where are the display conf files located in ubuntu | 10:20 |
| hateball | invariant1729: why would you want that | 10:21 |
| invariant1729 | hateball: I was just trying :D | 10:22 |
| ducasse | invariant1729: of course it is possible, but it is a bad idea and unsupported here. | 10:24 |
| ricard | hello,i want desinstall amazon but not is in repositori and the apt-get remove say me no found,help pleas | 10:24 |

| invariant1729 | ducasse: Sorry, I am new. How should I do that? | 10:33 |
| ducasse | invariant1729: in 'software and updates' | 10:33 |

| hateball | rdanter: thats an older package | 10:35 |
| hateball | and it's for firefox only | 10:35 |

| invariant1729 | hateball: How do I know whether it is detected at that link? | 10:52 |
| hateball | invariant1729: some animation should play, and your version info should be noted in a box | 10:53 |
| hateball | also I think flash is click to run by default, click the (i) in the omnibar to see what settings are for Flash | 10:54 |
| hateball | some pages dont play nice with click-to-run | 10:54 |
| invariant1729 | hateball: No animation and that box just shows a default image. Nothing more | 10:54 |

| invariant1729 | maybe it's because of the package | 11:07 |
| invariant1729 | maybe I should try pepperflash that works for chromium specifically | 11:07 |
| hateball | well, I'm using it myself so it should work | 11:07 |

| Bitnova | Hi, say i want to make a backup script similar to this: https://pastebin.com/wBt3GxcA To backup each app separately, but many apps, each one having their own code and paths to be backed up. And then finally to backup everything at once. How would i go about this the simplest way? Should there be a separate function for each app backup process and call each one? and then duplicate all functions into one function to backup everything at once? hope | 11:58 |
| Bitnova | someone can give me some insight on this | 11:58 |
| scottjl | Bitnova: kiss. back up each app separately. that way you can add/remove apps as easily as enabling/disabling one script. | 11:59 |
| scottjl | Bitnova: kiss = keep it simple silly | 12:00 |
| Bitnova | scottjl, thank you | 12:00 |
| scottjl | just my not so humble opinion | 12:00 |

| hoijui_ | i asked something earlier, and then was AFK, and now discovered that my IRC client only keeps the last 500 lines ;-) can anyone with more history tell me if i got a response? | 12:04 |
| cfhowlett | hoijui_, restate your question with clarity and precision | 12:05 |
| rdanter | mikaop: look in /var/log/* | 12:05 |
| hoijui_ | in a normal bash session, i can run `espeak "Hello"`, but the cronjob '* * * * * /usr/bin/espeak "Hello"' does not do what i want. why is that, and how can i "fix" this? | 12:05 |

| spider_x | Hey guys, I am trying to install ubuntu, however I think my GPU driver is not compatible or something since it causes some odd graphical errors right after grub | 12:09 |
| spider_x | so I am trying to boot it using nomodeset however, that just results in a purple screen after grub | 12:10 |
| cfhowlett | spider_x, what kind of graphical errors? | 12:10 |
| ioria | spider_x, and what kind of gpu ? | 12:11 |
| mikaop | rdanter: don't worry :) if i find the solution i will put here | 12:11 |
| spider_x | hard to describe but looks very glithcy, on top is a row of colored squares | 12:11 |
| mikaop | rdanter: thanks for your help! | 12:11 |

| hoijui_ | ioria, wooooo!! :D nice, thanks! | 12:13 |
| ioria | hoijui_, you're welcm | 12:13 |
| spider_x | I think so ioria I am switching it now, since that driver usually causes the issue I am having | 12:13 |
| spider_x | I just needed the nomodeset so I can get into the desktop and change the driver | 12:14 |
| hoijui_ | :-) | 12:14 |
| ioria | spider_x, if you can login in gui, try Additional Driver, and install nvidia, if it fails , purge it and try the ppa | 12:14 |
| spider_x | Yea, doing that currently. | 12:15 |

| Bliepo | Hello, I have a question concerning the use of zram. I am in a situation where the machine (which is attached to an ultrasound probe) recieves *massive* amounts of data (it fills 12 GB of RAM in about 30 seconds). Right now the machine is running Widows 7, but I figured installing Ubuntu and using zram might be handy to increase the effective amount of RAM. | 12:25 |
| Bliepo | The question is: how fast is compression with zram? | 12:25 |
| scottjl | zram is junk. | 12:25 |
| scottjl | you'd be far better off buying actual ram | 12:26 |
| === Vilegent is now known as Southern_Gentlem | ||
| implite | !ssh | predatorboy | 12:26 |
| ubottu | predatorboy: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for its homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 12:26 |
| Bliepo | scottjl: unfortunately, I can't buy more RAM | 12:26 |
| scottjl | zram is essentially compressed swap in ram. how much compression/performance you're going to get is going to depend on your data. | 12:28 |
| scottjl | but it's certainly a hit over real ram. | 12:28 |
| scottjl | zram was all the rage years ago. but i don't know anyone who uses it any longer. | 12:29 |
| scottjl | maybe someone else here thinks differently | 12:29 |
| Sparrow__ | Real ram all the way | 12:29 |
| cfhowlett | there is no substitute | 12:29 |
| Bliepo | scottjl: I just read zram uses lzo by default and since I have data I can benchmark :-) | 12:29 |
| Sparrow__ | writing 24 gigs a minute will be interesting | 12:30 |
| scottjl | i would think performance would be on-par with a windows 7 box. but only you testing with your data can provide actual numbers. | 12:31 |
| implite | !zram | 12:31 |
| ubottu | zRAM is a module of the Linux kernel which increases performance by avoiding paging on disk and instead uses a compressed block device in RAM, useful on systems with less RAM, and SSDs. Install zram-config to enable zRAM. | 12:31 |
| Bliepo | Well, thanks for the help. I'll do a bit more research into the cons and pros of zRAM to see if it is indeed useful. | 12:32 |
| scottjl | good luck | 12:32 |
| implite | I like to use ramdisks | 12:32 |
| implite | very very fast with some games | 12:32 |
| scottjl | zram isn't a typical ramdisk though | 12:32 |
| juniorlinuxx | rm * | 12:33 |
| pynki | you should think about your code if you fill 12gb ram in a minute with data | 12:35 |
| Sparrow__ | There is no time to compress that much data on the fly | 12:38 |
| === DeadKaptain_ is now known as zZDogs | ||
| pynki | just dump it to a disk. running windows 7 lets me assume that the data is not used in any realtime analyzing or stuff that is time critical. | 12:41 |
| === zZDogs is now known as Dogs | ||
| === Dogs is now known as zZDogs | ||
| scottjl | you might end up with better performance if you could add a ssd and dump straight to that. | 12:42 |
| Bliepo | LZO increases the size of my data instead of compressing it :'( | 12:46 |
| Bliepo | Well, seems zram is a no go then | 12:46 |
| rdanter | what about compressing in the application itself? | 12:46 |
| pynki | Bliepo, why not just dump it and then running another process to compress it? | 12:47 |
| pynki | why the data needs to be in the ram? | 12:48 |
| rory | Can I verify that rsyslog forwarding is working correctly? I'm sending very large volumes of logs and the people at the other end are saying they're only recieving 50% of what they are expecting | 12:48 |
| Bliepo | Because the company that made the software for this scanner made it in MATLAB and there is no support for dumping it real time :( | 12:48 |
| === sein is now known as Guest27448 | ||
| pynki | Blibo, what device is it? have a link? | 12:49 |
| Bliepo | It is called Verasonics Vantage, but you'll find very little info, since most of it is confidential | 12:50 |
| thyriaen | Hi, i wanna run my 2560x1440 (16:9) Monitor with 640x480 resolution stretched onto the screen with black borders on the side so the image keeps the aspect ratio ( However currently it just stretched the 640x480 pixels over the entire screen ) | 12:50 |
| Bliepo | Basic idea is that its an ultrasound machine + PC + MATLAB, so one can do data processing of the ultrasound data in MATLAB, with custom algorithms | 12:51 |
| Bliepo | Meant for research mainly | 12:51 |
| scottjl | is your scanner even going to work with ubuntu? | 12:51 |
| Bliepo | Yes, they support linux | 12:51 |
| rdanter | can you read from the ultrasound without matlab, then load it into matlab later? | 12:51 |
| Bliepo | Nope, you have to run the scanner from within MATLAB (since they use MEX files to implement) | 12:52 |
| Bliepo | Closed source off course | 12:52 |
| rdanter | pity | 12:52 |
| Bliepo | Yup | 12:52 |
| Bliepo | But it seems the raw data doesn't compress anyhow | 12:53 |
| Bliepo | Even LZMA2 does not compress it when set to ultra | 12:53 |
| pynki | Bliepo, use this thing too: Vantage Host Controller? | 12:53 |
| Bliepo | If I remember correctly, the Vantage Host controller is the pcie module they use to connect the scanner hardware to the pc | 12:54 |
| pynki | The Vantage system includes a powerful host controller workstation that has been optimized to provide the best performance with your Vantage system. It comes with a custom BIOS, installed Verasonics software including HAL, VSX, firmware and drivers; PCI express host adapter, MATLAB software, and over 100 example scripts. | 12:55 |
| Bliepo | Ah yes | 12:55 |
| Bliepo | The host controller is the workstation/pc | 12:55 |
| pynki | i do not knwo what they put inside the box - but if you fill 12gb in a minute... | 12:55 |
| pynki | and there is no way to dump the data... | 12:55 |
| pynki | what i want to say: there must be a way to dump the data | 12:56 |
| scottjl | what's the issue here? it's not scanning fast enough? shouldn't you be going back to the software provider? | 12:56 |
| Sparrow__ | I think he is trying to make an improvement | 12:56 |
| Bliepo | Well, the data is int16 (so 2 bytes), with 128 channels and 4 samples per wave. If you image 30 wavelengths deep, at 1200 frames/sec you fill 2*128*4*30*1200 = 35 MB/s | 12:57 |
| Sparrow__ | Manageable | 12:57 |
| Bliepo | Oh | 12:57 |
| Bliepo | It seems I made an error in my calculation earlier | 12:58 |
| pynki | Sparrow__, if he can store it somewhere | 12:58 |
| Sparrow__ | He just saw his error | 12:58 |
| pynki | or use it on the fly | 12:58 |

| aceventura | pynki...i don't have a windows iso...if i did i would just reinstall windows...all i have is a ghost backup of xp that was from a computer far away | 13:10 |

| pynki | you need win xp? | 13:12 |
| aceventura | pynki...yea well some people don't mind paying $100 for a windows os when they use it to manufacture soc ships and smarphones for milllions of dollars of returns on their $100 os investment...but some of us don't have that kind of money coming in and can only get some free os working with junkpile hardware....but the damn programs necessary to repair the phones are all windows based | 13:12 |

| pynki | ne said 4.8 i think | 13:43 |
| mclaren2 | yes | 13:43 |
| pynki | https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/networking/alx might work | 13:43 |
| pynki | tried their way of installing? | 13:43 |
| mclaren2 | yes | 13:43 |
| mclaren2 | i did exactly that | 13:43 |
| pynki | ok. you are sure the driver is not present on you system at all? using a custom kernel? | 13:44 |
| mclaren2 | nope | 13:45 |
| mclaren2 | but i am sure the driver isn't present | 13:45 |
| mclaren2 | is there a way to check? | 13:45 |
| bo` | velo-alien: i don't know, but it's either an issue with the gnome environment or possibly your keyboard (if an unusual keyboard) | 13:45 |

| hateball | mclaren2: and you cant "sudo modprobe alx" ? | 13:48 |
| pynki | sure it is if its a 4.8 kernel ;) | 13:48 |

| kunji | Is there a better way to manage the resources of a program than cgroups? The difficulty with those being that root access is required to setup the base one for a user (intended for use on shared systems). ulimit/prlimit is not good in my case because it lets children again use up to the limits each instead of restricting them as a group to that total amount. | 14:32 |

| kunji | pynki: I'm looking more of for a single user to limit resources just for himself for one groups of his processes. | 14:44 |
| kunji | *group | 14:45 |
| kunji | pynki: But I don't think cgroups can do it unless a root user first creates a default cgroup for the regular user, then the regular user is able to make his own sub-cgroup | 14:46 |

| yossarianuk | i.e i cannot use mdraid with EFI (ESP) | 15:22 |

| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 15:23 |

| rfleming | GNOME Classic has fubared my GNOME session. | 15:23 |
| yossarianuk | i.e efi (/boot/efi) partition cannot be made in mdraid as UEFI cannot read it. | 15:24 |
| rfleming | Logging into GNOME (not GNOME classic), I am presented with the GNOME classic interface... yet tweak tool says the extensions are not running. | 15:24 |
| rfleming | what is going on? | 15:24 |
| Eventsy | Any idea why if I get a server 404 on a script I am not getting anything in the error log? | 15:26 |
| bo` | i'm not familar with gnome desktop, but i'd guess that you're right... gnome classic fubared your regular gnome. | 15:26 |
| rfleming | thanks bo`. Very insightful :D | 15:27 |
| bo` | personally, i would reinstall and don't switch between them ever | 15:27 |
| bo` | logging into gnome classic maybe screwed up your user config files, idk. good luck. | 15:27 |

| Eventsy | Don't understand how it fails to connect when the sockets are clearly available | 15:59 |
| kunji | waxy: Well, there is wireshark, but for a config like that getting wireshark setup and whatnot is probably more work than getting this set up, that's just a guess though. | 16:00 |
| waxy | Southern_Gentlem, I'm not fully clear on the details, but I'm using MAVLink to connect a computer on the ground to one running on a drone | 16:00 |
| Eventsy | ffs | 16:01 |
| waxy | they are both equipped with rf modems which are physically connected through ethernet | 16:01 |

| momken | How could I mount a usb-dvd in Kubuntu 16.04? | 16:40 |
| lotuspsychje | !mount | momken | 16:40 |
| ubottu | momken: mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 16:40 |
| momken | It is not recognized in left pane of dolphin! | 16:41 |
| momken | But it is recognized easily in win 10 | 16:41 |
| sweetheart | Because it's not mounted | 16:41 |
| nacc | momken: let's start one layer lower, does linux see the disk? | 16:42 |
| momken | nacc: How could I know? | 16:42 |
| mikeymop | momken: i would start with an lsusb and look for the dvd drive | 16:42 |
| mikeymop | you said it's a usb dvd drive right? | 16:42 |
| nacc | momken: dmesg, lsusb, etc. | 16:42 |
| momken | mikeymop: yes dvd usb | 16:44 |
| momken | wait | 16:44 |
| momken | Yeah it is recognized in lsusb | 16:44 |
| momken | Bus 003 Device 007: ID 13fd:0840 Initio Corporation INIC-1618L SATA | 16:44 |
| momken | Actually it is a USB to miniSata adapter which converts the internal DVD drive of my laptop to an external USB drive | 16:45 |
| momken | It even writes over USB2 in win 10 | 16:45 |
| sweetheart | What's wrong with using the internal one? | 16:46 |
| sweetheart | Internally | 16:46 |
| momken | sweetheart: I have put an SSD in the HDD caddy instead | 16:46 |
| momken | more useful | 16:46 |
| sweetheart | Sounds it | 16:47 |
| nacc | momken: honestly, win10 is sort of irrelevant here. yes, it means (i guess) that the hw works, but let's ignore that for now and focus on linux | 16:47 |
| nacc | momken: can you pastebin dmesg output when you plug in the disk | 16:47 |
| sweetheart | Can you put a second battery in that Port? | 16:47 |
| Eventsy | Anyone know how to debug a connection refused 111 on fastcgi? | 16:47 |
| momken | nacc: The last lines of dmesg after reattaching the USB dvd: http://dpaste.com/049DG3M | 16:49 |
| momken | sweetheart: I don't think so. Some dells have a connector of second battery in drivebay, but my HP elitebook 8470p has this connector under the laptop | 16:50 |
| nacc | momken: looks like linux sees it fine (and has attached it to sr0) | 16:52 |
| nacc | momken: it probably just needs to be mounted, as someone mentioned | 16:52 |
| momken | nacc: Why dolphin doesn't detect it? | 16:52 |
| nacc | momken: because it's not mounted | 16:52 |
| nacc | momken: as now multiple people have said | 16:52 |
| Southern_Gentlem | nacc his output says it mounted as sr0 | 16:53 |
| nacc | Southern_Gentlem: that's not a mount | 16:53 |
| momken | nacc: But dolphin can detect many other unmounted usb flashs and hdds | 16:53 |
| nacc | Southern_Gentlem: that's the kernel device | 16:53 |
| nacc | momken: presumably you have automounting setup for those | 16:54 |
| Southern_Gentlem | momken, is there a dvd in it ? | 16:54 |

| spider_x | It is a rather annoying bug too, basically have to restart the computer if I want to logout | 17:19 |
| Eventsy | I can just cat /proc/cpuinfo but its the same | 17:19 |
| nacc | Eventsy: well, /proc/cpuinfo is showing you the current frequency | 17:20 |
| nacc | Eventsy: not the maximum(s) | 17:20 |
| Eventsy | True, but CPU freq shows the max as 3.1 | 17:20 |

| Eventsy | boost =1 | 17:23 |
| spider_x | Blah, I don't understand why it would make my monitors go into sleep mode :/ | 17:23 |

| lotuspsychje | spider_x: wich ubuntu are you running i3 on? | 17:24 |
| Eventsy | Single core stressing shows a lock at 3.1 Ghz | 17:25 |
| Eventsy | Odd | 17:25 |
| Eventsy | Should it be turboing a single core? | 17:25 |
| spider_x | 17.04 I think | 17:25 |
| spider_x | 17 for sure | 17:25 |
| nacc | Eventsy: you'd need to read the amd specs, i guess | 17:25 |
| Eventsy | I mean if it was current gen it would but the FX 8120 is old as balls | 17:25 |
| spider_x | I wonder if that's what causing all the issues? | 17:25 |
| lotuspsychje | spider_x: you could check your logs perhaps | 17:26 |
| lotuspsychje | !dmesg | spider_x | 17:26 |
| ubottu | spider_x: dmesg is a console command which outputs the kernel ring buffer - an important log for diagnosing problems in Linux. Often when something errors with hardware it will result in additional lines reported which can be seen by running dmesg in a console. | 17:26 |
| spider_x | yea looking at it now, can't make sense of it :D | 17:27 |
| lotuspsychje | spider_x: another test would be, trying i3 on LTS | 17:27 |
| spider_x | can I downgrade to LTS? | 17:27 |
| lotuspsychje | spider_x: when did this all start to happen? | 17:27 |
| spider_x | or do I have to reinstall | 17:27 |
| lotuspsychje | spider_x: reinstall or liveusb | 17:28 |
| spider_x | it only happens on i3wm, Gnome and Unity work fine | 17:28 |

| onomatopiea | Right let me think then. | 17:53 |
| onomatopiea | I want a nice unobtrusive way to boot to a secured ubuntu install | 17:53 |
| g105b | You can encrypt just the home directory? | 17:53 |
| onomatopiea | So what I am going to be installing - kodi, sshfs (or whatever). Will that all be protected in the home dir? | 17:53 |
| onomatopiea | Or more specifically, anything sentivie/configuration wise | 17:54 |

| g105b | onomatopiea: best advice is to get a good partition strategy that allows you to reconfigure drives at a later date. Once you've installed onto one partition, you're going to struggle to full-disk-encrypt it while you're booted into it already. | 18:00 |

| onomatopiea | nacc: Broken laptop keyboard! And no, it didn't work at boot | 18:02 |
| sim642 | Oh shit, 343 packages to remove, I should've done this right after upgrade I guess | 18:02 |
| nacc | sim642: yes, probably | 18:02 |
| nacc | sim642: not sure it will free up /boot or not, but it's good to do | 18:02 |
| onomatopiea | nacc: this is a crappy old laptop, so the plan is just to get SSH running on it, wake on lan, kodi, sshfs, etc. | 18:02 |
| onomatopiea | Hook it up to my TV | 18:02 |
| sim642 | nacc, I think it might because it seems like I have the kernels before the upgrade still as well | 18:02 |
| nacc | sim642: ok | 18:03 |
| nacc | onomatopiea: why do you need whole disk encryption? | 18:03 |
| onomatopiea | Damn I am stupid. Let me just plug my MS keyboard into THIS laptop. | 18:03 |
| onomatopiea | nacc: Just comfort. | 18:03 |
| web-secu2ity | hey | 18:04 |
| nacc | onomatopiea: ok, it seems like overkill for a media center that won't have anything you really need to secure | 18:04 |
| nacc | onomatopiea: just my opinion | 18:04 |
| onomatopiea | oh ffs nacc. The batteries were dead -_- | 18:04 |
| nacc | onomatopiea: and if you want it to be headless, then you are making that impossible if you have this dependency | 18:05 |
| nacc | onomatopiea: :) happens. that's why i got rid of my wireless keyboard | 18:05 |
| onomatopiea | I'd love a wired versio nof this keyboard. I love it | 18:05 |
| onomatopiea | But it doesn't exist. | 18:05 |
| onomatopiea | Anyways: I suppose ssh keys will be kept in home | 18:05 |
| onomatopiea | Fine. I'll take off full disk encryption! | 18:06 |

| anoni | i hear feedback noises when i plug my analog headphone? whats the problem? | 20:00 |
| bambooli | from my understanding (not sure if correct) FAT does not give problems with permissions but gives problems with filenames (invalid ones), EXT4 does not give problems with filenames but gives problems with permissions (later) | 20:00 |
| anoni | why no one respond to my problem? | 20:01 |
| khalil | @anoni perhaps nobody has the solution | 20:01 |

| anoni | i have an asus g551vw laptop, i hear feedback noises in my analog headphone. and its only an ubuntu problem, i haven't had the same problem in other linux distros i insalled | 20:03 |
| bambooli | i think one time i could not access the files because i had done it in EXT4 | 20:03 |
| bambooli | i did not have this issue before with windows, i guess it is a linux thing | 20:05 |
| bambooli | but i am a total beginner so maybe there is an easy way to solve this | 20:05 |
| bambooli | maybe neither FAT nor EXT4, another one? | 20:06 |
| ducasse | bambooli: you could just read up on file permissions and manage them correctly with ext4, but i admit it can be a hassle for beginners | 20:08 |

| Ben64 | you can | 20:34 |
| Ben64 | although windows needs a driver thing to be able to read ext | 20:34 |
| bambooli | i want to get rid of this "you do not have permission" thing! | 20:34 |
| Ben64 | then make yourself the owner of the directory | 20:34 |
| virtualriot | bambooli just login as root | 20:35 |
| Ben64 | no | 20:35 |
| bambooli | this is way much easier on windows (but i still prefer ubuntu) | 20:35 |
| Sparrow__ | time for lunch, catch you later | 20:35 |
| bambooli | thanks | 20:36 |
| bambooli | on windows you just get the files put them on the usbdisk and then open them on any computer you want (without that "you do not have permission" issue) | 20:37 |
| Ben64 | then use ntfs | 20:37 |
| bambooli | will ntfs give problems with filenames? | 20:37 |
| Ben64 | not enough information to determine | 20:37 |
| bambooli | because that is the problem with FAT? | 20:37 |
| bambooli | no question mark | 20:38 |
| bambooli | that is the problem with FAT (i get all these invalid filenames errors) | 20:38 |
| Ben64 | no you can't use / \ : * ? " < > | according to a google search | 20:38 |
| bambooli | but FAT is good because it does not give permissions problems later | 20:38 |
| Ben64 | it won't give permission problems if you set the owner to your owner now | 20:39 |
| Ben64 | dunno why you haven't yet | 20:39 |
| bambooli | sorry i just meant to write "because that is the problem with FAT" without question mark (it was a statement) | 20:39 |
| bambooli | but my owner now, is not the same as in another computer, right? | 20:40 |
| bambooli | then on the other computer i will not be able to open it | 20:40 |
| Ben64 | you can open it on anything | 20:40 |
| joelmo | I have added the nigtly of vlc master ppa. But I cant seem to install the latest version, mine is stuck at v3.0 2016 | 20:42 |
| bambooli | Ben64, so NTFS or EXT4 ? | 20:42 |
| joelmo | I am on 16.04 | 20:42 |
| Ben64 | bambooli: whatever you want man | 20:42 |
| bambooli | Ben64, what do you do? | 20:43 |
| bambooli | (i assume you know better than me) | 20:43 |
| Ben64 | doesn't matter what i do | 20:44 |
| bambooli | Ben64, how does a "good ubuntu user" save files on externalusbdisk? | 20:45 |
| bambooli | one who is not a beginner like me | 20:45 |
| Ben64 | depends on their needs | 20:46 |
| bambooli | Ben64, simply to have a good reliable backup | 20:46 |
| Ben64 | backup i'd use ext4 | 20:47 |
| bambooli | and then adjust the permissions | 20:49 |
| bambooli | so that anyone can access those files | 20:49 |
| Ben64 | the default permissions let everyone read | 20:50 |
| steaminstall | Hey guys! My installed steam won't start - "ILocalize::AddFile() failed to load file "public/steambootstrapper_english.txt". [2017-05-04 22:48:42] Startup - updater built Jun 16 2014 11:16:02 Segmentation fault (core dumped)" | 20:50 |
| bambooli | now i am confused between chown and chmod | 20:50 |
| steaminstall | What can i do? | 20:50 |
| bambooli | Ben64, i don't want to contradict you but i don't think the default permissions let everyone read (i remember last time i did it with EXT4 everything seemed fine UNTIL i tried to open the files from another computer) | 20:53 |
| bambooli | i could not open them | 20:54 |
| Ben64 | default for files is 644, default for directories is 755 | 20:54 |
| bambooli | but even the files that were not in a directory i could not open | 20:55 |
| bambooli | the whole disk was locked | 20:56 |
| bambooli | that's why this time i was afraid to do EXT4 (even though it is much better as it does not give all those invalid filename errors that FAT gives) | 20:56 |
| bambooli | much better IF AND ONLY IF i can access the files letter... | 20:57 |
| bambooli | later i mean (not letter) | 20:57 |

| satanejo | hi, I have a problem with a radeon 4330 and with the modprobe modeset=1 it gets the right resolution and then it shut downs suddenly | 21:06 |
| bambooli | instead of doing every time [sudo chown -R (user name) /dev/(device name) (ubuntu)] is it possible to set the external disk (EXT4) from the beginning to be accessible for all? | 21:07 |
| bambooli | this is what i am trying to understand | 21:08 |
| bambooli | maybe i can do the permission settings right from the beginning, and then there will be no permission problems later | 21:09 |
| bambooli | without having to do chownchmod | 21:09 |
| bambooli | am i on the right path? | 21:09 |
| nacc | bambooli: chown -R on a dev node makes no sense | 21:10 |
| nacc | bambooli: that's the kernel's view of a physical device | 21:10 |
| nacc | bambooli: it's not mounted, so recursing is wrong | 21:11 |
| nacc | bambooli: and all you're doing is changing the permissions on the devnode | 21:11 |
| bambooli | nacc, thanks, how do you set the external drive (EXT4) so that later i will not get the permissions problem (on other computers)? | 21:11 |
| bambooli | i mean so that i will be able to plug it in and averything will work right away | 21:12 |
| nacc | bambooli: well, the permissions problems arise by how it is mounted on each computer | 21:12 |
| nacc | bambooli: you can't prevent that | 21:12 |
| bambooli | can you not tell the guy to just allow everybody? | 21:12 |
| nacc | bambooli: i guess you could make everything world +rwx on the filesystem, but that is a hack and working around a broken model | 21:12 |
| bambooli | what is the command to do that +rwx on the filesystem? | 21:13 |
| bambooli | what do you mean broken model? | 21:14 |
| nacc | bambooli: your mental model of how an external disk works seems broken | 21:14 |
| axujen | hello, i keep trying to install the minimal cd image but i keep running into the error could not find any live images when trying to install the system | 21:14 |
| axujen | any ideas? | 21:14 |
| onomatopiea | It's looking all good now nacc :) Ubutu is all setup etc etc.. Some tweaking required but it's a good start | 21:15 |
| bambooli | nacc, sorry i am a beginner (guess beginners should be put in jail) | 21:15 |
| onomatopiea | What does it mean when my ubuntu 16.04 lock screen is blue with some rat image on it? | 21:17 |
| Bashing-om | axujen: EFI system ? As minimal does not support out of the box . | 21:17 |
| ChaiTRex | onomatopiea: Did you install Xubuntu? | 21:18 |
| onomatopiea | ChaiTRex: Yes | 21:18 |

| nacc | onomatopiea: sounds like you are using xfce | 21:20 |
| onomatopiea | ok. I suspect when I was trying to get VNC working | 21:20 |
| nacc | bambooli: if you put a filesystem on an external disk, and you want it to 'just work' everywhere, regardless of user, you need to do some permissions changing | 21:21 |
| === gsilvapt_ is now known as gsilva | ||

| bambooli | nacc, yes that's what i want, will you help me please? | 21:22 |
| bambooli | i want it to just work everywhere | 21:22 |
| bambooli | without having to do stuff from terminal every time | 21:23 |
| bambooli | i want to get done with it one time in the beginning and never again | 21:24 |
| bambooli | so i have and EXT4 external usb disk, and then i must give some permissions command, but what exactly? | 21:25 |
| bambooli | a user before said something about 644 everything | 21:26 |
| bambooli | nacc, 644 the whole disk? | 21:26 |
| nacc | bambooli: mount the ext4 disk and run `cd <mountpoint>; sudo chmod -R <permissions>` | 21:26 |
| nacc | bambooli: do you understand what 644 gives you? | 21:27 |
| bambooli | not sure | 21:27 |
| bambooli | possibility to read everything? | 21:27 |
| bambooli | do you mean mount it now? | 21:28 |
| bambooli | not here with me now | 21:28 |
| nacc | bambooli: yes, you need to change the actual filesystem | 21:28 |
| nacc | bambooli: 644 means owner has read-write, group have read and others have read | 21:29 |
| bambooli | let's do read-write for everybody | 21:29 |
| bambooli | what is the command? | 21:29 |
| nacc | bambooli: note that mount-level permissions are still applied, as are possible fstab rules | 21:30 |
| bambooli | nacc, i dont know what that means | 21:31 |
| auronandace | bambooli: can you trust every computer you will be plugging your drive into? if the answer is no then you don't want read-write access for everyone | 21:31 |
| nacc | bambooli: the permissions on the mountpoint where you mount the disk each time matters, and fstab user= or group= options can change who can read/write a mounted disk | 21:31 |
| callum_ | Can someone help me with my sound? | 21:32 |

| nacc | zealsham_: putty is available in ubuntu | 21:33 |
| bambooli | nacc, why did this permissions problem not exist in windows? | 21:33 |
| nacc | bambooli: because you weren't using ext4 then? | 21:34 |
| nacc | bambooli: and windows permissions are totally different than linux? | 21:34 |

| xiusfist | why does my computer say something about clean blocks when starting up? is that some sort of file system integrity check or something? | 22:21 |
| pavlos | xiusfist: yes, it does a file system check (fsck) | 22:22 |
| xiusfist | pavlos: isnt that bad to run that at each startup? won't that cause wear on the hard drive? | 22:23 |

| babahulk | Is there a way to change permission of an external hard drive so I can backup there first? | 22:31 |
| dannyLopez | Hi. | 22:31 |
| Jordan_U | babahulk: What filesystem is used on the external? How did you mount the partition on the external drive? | 22:32 |
| ooo | /join #luajit | 22:34 |
| _john | where do I start doing stability testing. I don't want to heat up all 4 cores in my i7 | 22:34 |
| ooo | lol | 22:34 |
| _john | I doubt it is a hardware issue | 22:34 |
| babahulk | @Jordan_U It says HFS+ | 22:35 |
| babahulk | and I have no idea what it means | 22:35 |
| Jordan_U | babahulk: That is Apple's filesystem for OSX. You cannot write to in from GNU/Linux unless you remove journaling support from the filesystem (which is something I think you need OSX to do, but I'm not certain of that). | 22:35 |
| babahulk | ah that woud make sense | 22:36 |
| babahulk | I guess I have to figure out what to do with it | 22:36 |
| dStruct | babahulk: I was just about to say what Jordan_U said, so yes it's an Apple OSX f/s | 22:36 |
| _john | you can't boot with journaling disabled on osx unless you did it from terminal in osx | 22:36 |
| _john | so no | 22:37 |
| dStruct | babahulk: I just popped into this conversation, what are you trying to do? | 22:37 |
| dStruct | babahulk: if you don't care about whatever data is already on the external disk, you can just wipe it and format it however you like? | 22:37 |
| babahulk | I would like to keep the data and put he backup there with it | 22:38 |
| Jordan_U | babahulk: What problems are you having specifically? Unless you have had problems with completely failing to boot then you can ignore boot repair's warning as it is not causing whatever problems you're having. Most computers do not need a separate /boot/ partition. | 22:39 |
| babahulk | I guess I wanted to make sure I won't have any issues in the future and just wanted to create a backup in case I screw something up in the future | 22:39 |
| babahulk | And since I got the error message I thought I had to do something to fix it | 22:40 |
| _john | I read online that you can disable journaling for external HFS+ volumes | 22:40 |
| dStruct | babahulk: if the HFS+ is partitioned to consume the entire disk you won't be able to do that, you could (if you had access to a Mac) backup the external somewhere, re-partition the disk smaller, and put the existing data back on it if you really wanted to | 22:40 |
| babahulk | tthat sounds like a good plan dstruc | 22:41 |
| babahulk | thank you | 22:41 |
| dStruct | babahulk: any time :D | 22:41 |
| onomatopiea | I'm using ubuntu 16.04 and unity. Is there an easy way to get a remote session (VNC?) onto the box remotely? | 22:42 |
| onomatopiea | I want ot be able to see what I see through the HDMI out on a remote machine as well | 22:42 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: there are lots of ways, if you're trying to connect into said machine you can simply turn on the built in vnc server, or you can use something like remina to connect out | 22:42 |
| onomatopiea | dStruct: I've been trying vncserver | 22:43 |
| _john | another tip for mac users if you have an empty or new external drive you should format from osx and setup time machine now not later | 22:43 |
| _john | or you will not be using time machine at all | 22:43 |
| onomatopiea | But it's not been working as expected tbh. I've had different desktop/environments each time | 22:43 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: it should be built into unity, you just have to use I think it's unity tweak tool or dconf to turn it on and set the settings | 22:44 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: it's referred to as "Desktop Sharing" afaik | 22:44 |
| onomatopiea | dStruct: I'll see how that goes thanks! I'll see if I can set it via ssh | 22:45 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: I'm not sure how you could set it up via SSH, I'm sure it could be done. you're configuring a remote machine so you can connect into VNC? | 22:45 |
| _john | I had difficulty with vnc in ubuntu 16.04 with unity not knowing what settings to use | 22:45 |
| _john | its more than just hit go | 22:45 |

| _john | I had ip and port the rest was over my head | 22:47 |
| nacc | gsilvapt: sorry, you weren't, gslight was | 22:47 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: oh I found it, the icon is under the launcher called Desktop Sharing which is the normal way to set it up, and dconf editor has extra options if you need them, where and how it works on the backend you'll have to google | 22:48 |
| nacc | gsilvapt: and i hit <tab><enter> too quickly | 22:48 |
| _john | the client was not on ubuntu so | 22:48 |
| gsilvapt | Ah, I see. No problem! | 22:49 |
| roothorick | I'm at a loss on how to troubleshoot this. gnome-shell crashes when certain games are launched, but only sometimes, and I can't for the life of me see a pattern | 22:49 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: fwiw, a keyboard for a laptop is usually very cheap and easy to replace, you might consider that as another option, or plug in an external usb keyboard temporarily just to set up vnc | 22:50 |
| roothorick | in the journal it looks like it fails to create a buffer or the buffer is corrupt? | 22:50 |
| onomatopiea | dStruct: Sure, but I also want it scrupted | 22:52 |
| _john | what can cause a 4790K to feeze all I/O? I am booting ubuntu 17.04 in UEFI everything works great only one freeze ever and it was totally frozen | 22:52 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: if you enable desktop sharing via unity it will automatically start with each boot | 22:52 |
| _john | I think an interrupt or halt | 22:52 |
| onomatopiea | dStruct: I want the entire (or as much as possible) of the install to be scripted | 22:53 |
| dStruct | _john: I have a 17.04 machine as well, love it so far, no issues | 22:53 |
| _john | but I don't think there are a lot of things that have full control over all hardware to behave like IRQ DMA from 1990 | 22:53 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: what install? | 22:53 |
| _john | yeah it is the best linux distro ever | 22:53 |
| onomatopiea | The install of the laptop | 22:53 |
| _john | full hardware support | 22:53 |
| _john | working package manager | 22:53 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: ahh so you don't even have Ubuntu on the lappy yet? | 22:53 |
| onomatopiea | dStruct: I do :) But I like to make it easy to flatten it | 22:54 |
| _john | I have been in and out of linux for many years but I always ran into problems where I had to build packages or test packages, add repos, fix grub, fix broken kernel updates etc.. | 22:54 |
| _john | it was never as easy as windows install and driver install with windows in the 1990's | 22:55 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: honestly it can be done, the Openstack guys have full blown head-less installs etc, but if you have a working display, I would just connect a regular usb keyboard and/or mouse to it and install normally, it's way easier | 22:55 |
| _john | I tried red hat but it was so different from a lot of stuff based on debian | 22:55 |
| scar | does anyone know how i could make an LDAP user an "Administrator" on local ubuntu 16.04 workstation? i got LDAP auth setup following LDAPClientAuthentication document, but when i open the Users and Passwords applet on the workstation, it won't let me change the role from Standard to Administrator, even if i unlock the applet using the local admin account that was created during install... (the | 22:56 |
| scar | weird thing is that my LDAP account is shown as an administrator, maybe because i am part of LDAP "admin" group) | 22:56 |
| onomatopiea | dStruct: Easier sure, but I get to learn a bit more like this | 22:57 |
| onomatopiea | dStruct: I'm a windows dev so doing some basic linux work is fun | 22:57 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: well in that case you may want to go look at how Openstack deploys their machines, they use netboot TFTP and images for the most part, not that Openstack would apply to what you're trying to do | 22:58 |
| kython | hi | 23:00 |
| onomatopiea | dStruct: ha this is interesting. I opened vnc on my lappy.. And I just keep getting the window in window in window effect | 23:00 |
| onomatopiea | Of my laptop, not the remote laptop :x | 23:00 |
| onomatopiea | I don't get it. | 23:01 |
| dStruct | onomatopiea: you vnc'd to yourself :D | 23:01 |
| onomatopiea | No I didn't though.. | 23:01 |
| onomatopiea | Because I am literally typing in the correct address here | 23:02 |
| onomatopiea | wtf? | 23:02 |
| dannyLopez | I compile the client, but not work and show this https://pastebin.com/wViniAX2 | 23:02 |
| dannyLopez | Any idea what happen this? | 23:02 |
| implite | Does anyone here know of a music player for ubuntu that i can use visual plugins with like I could with winamp and milkdrop | 23:03 |
| implite | ? | 23:03 |
| implite | does xmbc or something have this ability? | 23:04 |
| dStruct | dannyLopez: I don't even know what nextcloud is, but on the very last line did you see the part about "abstractcredentials.cpp:43 Error: User is empty!" | 23:04 |
| zhanx | i use winamp with wine | 23:04 |
| implite | i do also | 23:04 |
| implite | but i was wondering if there is a native software i could use | 23:04 |
| implite | linux | 23:05 |
| zhanx | not that i am aware of, but someone else might chime in | 23:05 |
| dannyLopez | dStruct: Dropbox alternative, but I configure all. :( | 23:05 |
| onomatopiea | Oh I give up. Maybe windows + RDP is just better | 23:08 |
| compdoc | tried x2go? | 23:08 |
| implite | I never had any issues using vnc | 23:09 |
| implite | just saying | 23:09 |
| implite | ... | 23:09 |
| vlt | onomatopiea: I'm using vnc for years now. No problems. What have you tried to accomplish? | 23:10 |
| latino31 | where is include/configh in ubuntu? | 23:10 |
| implite | teamveiwer also works but i use vnc when ever i can | 23:10 |
| latino31 | where is include/config.h in ubuntu? | 23:10 |
| onomatopiea | vlt: Basically, I want to be able to boot my ubuntu machine up and then access it via vnc | 23:13 |
| onomatopiea | vlt: I have tried to use desktop sharing (so connected via ssh -Y, vino-preferences, then running the vino-server.. Which is now causing me to just view the desktop from the local not remote machine) | 23:13 |
| implite | from inside your network? | 23:13 |
| vlt | onomatopiea: Doing this since 2006. At least. What have you tried so far? | 23:13 |
| implite | or outside? | 23:13 |
| onomatopiea | Inside my network | 23:13 |
| onomatopiea | I have this laptop, and the laptop in the other room which I am trying to connect to | 23:14 |
| vlt | onomatopiea: Have you tried vnc4server? | 23:14 |
| onomatopiea | hm I think I did, I forget what I tried earlier | 23:14 |
| onomatopiea | Will that just show me what is on the HDMI output? | 23:14 |
| vlt | onomatopiea: No, that will run a vncserver session you can configure in ~/.vnc/xsartup (or similar) and connect to. | 23:16 |
| vlt | onomatopiea: If you really want to connect to what is on an actual X server, use x11vnc. | 23:17 |
| Guy1524 | hey guys, im trying to play gta V through wine but I have keyboard issue. I have heard using an xbox controller solves the issue, but I do not have one, is there a way to map keyboard bindings to a fake xbox controller for this purpose? | 23:17 |
| implite | if your good at python you can make your own script to do this with vnc also ;) | 23:17 |
| vlt | onomatopiea: But in most cases (and if you have more than one user, of course) you want vncserver. | 23:17 |
| onomatopiea | Nope, just one user | 23:18 |
| onomatopiea | It's a media/kodi machine mostly | 23:18 |
| onomatopiea | I just want to be able to connect to it remotely ithout having to the use the TV, sometimes | 23:18 |
| Jordan_U | Guy1524: That sounds unlikely to be helpful. Try asking about your keyboard problem in #winehq, after you check the wine appdb entry for GTA V to see if a workaround for this issue is given there. | 23:19 |
| implite | having a networked tv tuner card is also nice so you can watch tv around the house | 23:20 |
| vlt | onomatopiea: Then I'd recommend vncserver. | 23:20 |
| Guy1524 | Jordan_U: I have tried both of those options | 23:20 |
| Guy1524 | I have been waiting for a fix from the winedb page for a month now | 23:20 |
| Guy1524 | and I have tried to debug it myself | 23:20 |
| Guy1524 | but steamapi64.dll blocks debugging | 23:21 |
| Jordan_U | Guy1524: Are you using the latest version of wine from here: https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu ? | 23:22 |
| Guy1524 | yes | 23:22 |
| Guy1524 | I am using wine staging 2.7 | 23:22 |
| Guy1524 | this is an issue that affects everybody | 23:23 |
| Guy1524 | I have seen somebody who was able to play the game with no problems using an xbox controller however | 23:23 |
| onomatopiea | vlt: Losing my mind here. Will give it a go tomorrow! | 23:25 |
| vlt | onomatopiea: Good luck! | 23:25 |
| onomatopiea | It is WAY past my bedtime anyways. | 23:25 |
| Jordan_U | Guy1524: Are you sure that they were using wine rather than a VM with GPU passthrough? | 23:26 |
| Guy1524 | 100% sure | 23:27 |
| Guy1524 | I am able to get GTA V running myself through wine | 23:27 |
| Guy1524 | just w/ the keyboard issue | 23:27 |
| Guy1524 | https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42330 | 23:27 |
| ubottu | bugs.winehq.org bug 42330 in -unknown "Grand Theft Auto V (Steam): black screen, only audio" [Normal,Unconfirmed] | 23:27 |
| CarlFK | where is a ubuntu version of: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/stretch_di_rc3/amd64/iso-cd/debian-stretch-DI-rc3-amd64-netinst.iso | 23:30 |
| CarlFK | really I want an iso that is about 700mb that has most of the .deb needed for a -server install | 23:30 |
| Jordan_U | CarlFK: I don't think there is any official iso matching those requirements. You can however use the mini.iso, it just will require an internet connection during installation to grab packages. | 23:32 |
| CarlFK | 700 because that is what will fit on the 780g fs that you get when you dd this to a usb stick: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/boot.img.gz | 23:32 |
| Jordan_U | !minimal | CarlFK | 23:32 |
| ubottu | CarlFK: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 23:32 |
| CoderEurope | How do I add my freenode password to my HexChat Console ? | 23:36 |
| bazhang | CoderEurope, try #hexchat | 23:37 |
| Guy1524 | if this raises any ideas, this text gets repeated constantly while running the game (GTAV): http://paste.ubuntu.com/24513913/ | 23:37 |
| Guy1524 | do you think this has to do w/ the issue? | 23:37 |
| CarlFK | Jordan_U: thanks - minimal is about what I am doing. sometimes the net connection isn't great so having most of the files local is handy. | 23:38 |
| bazhang | Guy1524, what does the appdb, and #winehq , the proper venue for this , say | 23:38 |
| bazhang | CarlFK, do you have more than a single linux machine | 23:39 |
| CarlFK | bazhang: umm. yes. | 23:39 |
| bazhang | CarlFK, then you can use something like aptoncd, or apt-mirror for that | 23:40 |
| CarlFK | bazhang: that's a little larger than a usb stick ;) | 23:41 |
| bazhang | CarlFK, how teensy weensy are your usb sticks | 23:42 |
| CarlFK | bazhang: I meant physically. dragging a 2nd linux box around is cumbersome | 23:42 |
| bazhang | CarlFK, thus the aptoncd | 23:43 |
| JUSY | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbyGT7CwLB4 | 23:44 |
| Jordan_U | CarlFK: Where does http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/boot.img.gz fit into this picture? You say that's related to why you need a 700 MB image, but I don't understand why you're not just doing a normal Ubuntu server install from a USB. | 23:44 |
| bazhang | JUSY, why post that here | 23:45 |
| CarlFK | Jordan_U: I'm trying to mimic an existing procedure that uses debian | 23:46 |
| Jordan_U | CarlFK: Why? What is your end goal? | 23:47 |
| CarlFK | usb stick that sets up a dhcp/gateway box | 23:47 |
| Guy1524 | bazhang: nothing really | 23:48 |
| Guy1524 | we kind of all are waiting for a fix | 23:49 |
| CarlFK | I think the easy way forward is to put the u-server.iso on a 2nd usb stick. the installer searches all local media, so.. meh, 2 usb sticks no big deal | 23:49 |
| Guy1524 | I would try to debug because i generally know how to program but steamapi64.dll is getting in my way | 23:49 |
| === hehehe_off_ is now known as hehehe | ||
| bazhang | Guy1524, ---> /join #winehq , the proper place to ask about individual games | 23:51 |
