GrandPa-GI am accessing via ssh00:17
Betlehemwelcome to Ubuntu FC Paralimpic00:18
GrandPa-GIt works correctly from gui in a terminal session. What did I do to ssh?00:18
pavlosGrandPa-G: .bashrc is not sourced upon ssh. source it in .bash_profile00:20
GrandPa-Gpavlos: excuse my ignorance, exactly how do I "source" it? source $HOME/.bashrc00:22
PeterM12121 root@rescue:~# sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt mount: /dev/sda is already mounted or /mnt busy00:22

BetlehemBy Tomahawk 201700:24
pavlosGrandPa-G: maybe there is a ~/.profile which has code to source ~/.bashrc00:24
GrandPa-Gpavlos: is there a default system wide .bash_profile like in etc? I am looking to see what the difference is.00:25
pavlosGrandPa-G: there should be system wide files in /etc/skel/ (I have a .profile and a .barhrc  16.0400:27
GrandPa-Gpavlos:I see what  happened. I install some mysql stuff and it created a ~/.bash_profile where there was none before. I removed it and it now works.00:27
GrandPa-Gpavlos:so I must now be picking up the system default, which is what I want. I will deal with the mysql stuff another way. Thanks for the help.00:27
pavlosGrandPa-G: you can add source ~/.bashrc in there (like you wrote) and keep the file if you want00:28
GrandPa-Gpavlos:I realize that but I think the mysql stuff didn't work anyway.00:28

implitethat would help you but thats not going to fix your problem gegen04:00
YankDownUndergegen, You can use the Google DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) but you'd want to have the IP of your router FIRST...everything else would be after that...especially if you're using a different set of DNS servers...(you can still tack on the Google DNS servers at the end...if you so desire)04:01

SnowieHi all. I just reinstalled 16.04.2 but left 3 home directories in place. I'm not trying to add the users back with instructions here http://www.tuxradar.com/answers/681 but as you can see, the blank user i created on the reinstall seems to have the same user details for my previous user account (mykal). the plan was to reinstate the users and delete the blank account.05:26

pd1the uid and gid are the same Snowie05:27
gegensudo iwconfig wlxa.. power off -> operation not supported05:28
Snowiepd1: yeah, i get that. so if i create a user mykal, i should create them with the same uid and gid that i currently have for the 'blank' user i am logged in as?05:28
Snowieand then i can safely ditch the 'blank' user?05:29
pd1https://muffinresearch.co.uk/linux-changing-uids-and-gids-for-user/05:29
pd1change them for blank05:29
Snowiepd1: just trying not to lose stuff. not the end ofthe world, but yeah05:29
pd1i assume is the safest solution05:29
pd1backup the stuff!05:29
Snowieok, so after the reinstall there is only one user 'blank'05:30
gegenmodprobe -r iwlwifi && modprobe iwlwifi 11n_disable=1 -> missing module name05:30
Snowieso i create the other 3 users, as per their home directories and uid gid05:30
gegenrmmod: ERROR: missing module name.05:30
gegenmodprobe: FATAL: Error running remove command for iwlwi05:30
pd1hmmm gegen, that might not help at all :D05:30
Snowiethen change the gid uid for 'blank05:31
pd1Snowie: chnage the uid/gid for bloank first05:31
Snowieonce done i should be able to login as one of the other users and remove 'balank'05:31
pd1then create the other users, then drop blank05:31
Snowiepd1: is it safe to change that to a user i am logged in as?05:31
pd1i do not know05:33
pd1no way to backup the data to extern?05:33
Snowienot really. I'm nto too concerned if i lose all the user data. most of our stuff is 'in the cloud' anyway. have to reinstall some games and stuff. I think i might try creating the 2 non conflicting users and work from one of those users to fix the gid uid and then kill the old user05:34

FManTropyxI guess it depends on how much memory you are using... maybe 2 GB (or none, if the 8 GB will always suffice) and I think swap should never be on an SSD08:32
pynkiFManTropyx, thanks. ubuntu switched to swap files right?08:37

kael_Hey guys, just installed ubuntu. When i opened firefox, it gives an error: Server not found. I did a little googling and ran command "ping www.google.com" it returns "ping: www.google.com: Name or server not known". I  googled this message & changed /etc/resolv.conf to have 8.8.8.8 dns, still unable to ping. Any ideas on the issue ?10:52
brotherBoxducasse: still no luck. it does recognise that i put a config into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d (in this case 70-synaptic.conf), but after doing systemctl restart lightdm.service its still mot working10:52
brotherBoxkael_: did you configure internet/wifi on that machine?10:54
brotherBoxducasse: is it important that the touchpad is managed by synaptics?10:54
kael_@brotherBox, yes the wifi seems connected from the symbol.10:54
ducassebrotherBox: you need to be configuring the correct driver, yes10:55
brotherBoxkael_: what interfaces does ifconfig show, and does the one you want to connect have an internal IP?10:55
golum@Brotherbox yes, i'm positive ive entered the right settings10:56
brotherBoxducasse: well, the entry thats recommended doesnt specify libinput or synaptics. what do you mean configuring the correct driver?10:56
ducassebrotherBox: your config does not seem to be for a specific driver, but a class of devices. but shouldn't MatchIsTouchpad be 'on' if you're trying to do this for a touchpad?10:59
kael_brotherBox_: ran "ifconfig" command seems like it is not installed, when i try to run "sudo apt install apt-tools", getting "E: unable to locate package net-tools". I am guessing i need to be connected to the internet to download this net-tools software.11:00

kael_@computeruser_: i think i am using dhcp, since in my ipv4 setting it is mentioning "default(DHCP)", @brotherBox_: "sudo dhcpd" command gives "command not found" prompt.'11:29
computeruserI don't know the command in linux but in windows you would just type ipconfig /all11:30
computeruserthat would tell you your IP, DNS, gateway and if you are on DHCP11:30
computeruserthe information we need to help you11:30
kael_@computeruser, i guess the equivalent command in linux is "ifconfig", brotherBox asked me to run it before, but I dont have it installed and for installation i need internet:(11:31
computeruserthere are definitely packages installed to do it already11:33
computeruserif you can ping then you have an connection manager loaded and running11:33
computeruseryou can use the GUI11:34

onomatopieaWhat is the best way to auto mount sshfs on login?11:42
bekks!automount11:42
ubottuAutomount is the modern way to mount directories over a network. It is much easier to manage and  more economic in bandwidth than static mounts via fstab. For more info - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Autofs11:42
onomatopieabekks: And it works with sshfs?11:43

computeruserok so ifconfig is depreciated maybe but it works perfectly and it is installed by default in all versions of ubuntu12:11

arunsHi, I am running Apache 2.4.18 on Ubuntu 16.04, I have set ServerTokens to Prod / ProductOnly in my apache2/apache2.conf file, and I have a .htaccess file in one of my test vhost subdirs in /var/www which has the following ServerSignature Off13:12
Sparrow__No you do go for a ride and let the salesman drive do you, no you drive it you see how it feels13:12
arunsWhen I visit that vhost locally and open Chrome DevTools Console after reloading the server and check the Network tab so that I can check the HTTP response headers, it still says Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu)13:13
ryzokukenguys, how ubuntu compares to elementary and mint in terms of sheer speed?13:13
zteamGuest49890, are you asking about which flavor you should pick?13:13
Guest49890its strucking again & again13:13
Kolusaruns, it sounds like you need to update your vhosts to add a virtual host to your system and point it to your directory13:14
Sparrow__ryzokuken, Guest49890 thats what I have on this system  i2 an 4gig 500 gighd13:14

ryzokukenwhich is the best ubuntu variant/derivative in terms of performance?13:16
Guest49890yes13:16
arunsKolus: ?13:16
arunsYou are misunderstanding.13:16
Troy1Guest49890: that may be your issue? you never gave us more details on when it freezes?13:16
arunsI am asking how to hide the Apache server version in the HTTP response headers, I have used ServerSignature Prod but it is not working13:17
Sparrow__ryzokuken, that question leads to a lot of discussion but it depends more on which flavors you pick.  Mint cinnamon is great but heavy, lm is very light and mint in the middle13:17
Guest49890whenever we are opening photoshop or excels sheet that time itsb freezing13:17
Kolusthats going to take a little lookup for me too13:17
Sparrow__sounds like a wine prob;em13:17

arunsGuest4989013:18
pynkithx @bekks13:18
Guest49890via gimp13:18
Guest49890sory gimp only13:18
jk^Sparrow__, Pls, what means--> "See how they actually work on tiyr jardare then install two, one to use and one to play with and break"13:19
arunsWell PSD is a proprietary format13:19
arunsSo maybe the issue is that Gimp is struggling to convert some of your PSD files13:19
Sparrow__jk^, see me in private13:19
arunsBecause it has to reverse engineer the format in order to read the files13:19

Sparrow__g498   run this in terminal   inxi -Fxxrzc013:22
Sparrow__argh, fingers are not working this am paste failures everywhere argh13:23
arunsMaybe you could go to Tools > Options in LibreOffice Calculator Guest4989013:23
arunsTweak some of the settings.13:23
arunsCheck Memory and View under LibreOffice at the top13:24
arunsMaybe tweaking some of the settings could help13:24
arunsYou could maybe try reducing the graphics cache, idk13:25
arunsNot really much of a LibreOffice user13:25
arunsMaybe see if hardware acceleration is ticked under View13:25
arunsUntick it to see if it improves performance13:25
arunsOtherwise yeah as Troy1 it probably can't handle large workbooks13:26

schahermachercan you help me remember what is ppa?13:53
pynkiryzokuken, giving advice on something like "looks" are 100% subjectivef13:53
Nokajizteam: rather (sorry) - if I rephrase the question ... I have only updates form canonical and launchpad EXCEPT webupd8.org - should I kill that one?13:53
pynkiryzokuken, i would recommend ubuntu minimal + fluxbox - but for others that may suck13:54
ryzokukenpynki: some looks are more or less universal. KDE looks better than XFCE for almost everyone.13:56
zteamNokaji, if you have added ppas yes,13:56

schahermacherany way to keep that and also be stable?14:07
nicolas_matehola tengo un problema con el bluetooth, alguien me puede ayudar?14:08
ducasseschahermacher: to get newer stable software, upgrade to a newer ubuntu version14:08
schahermacherisn't it new enough ducasse?14:09
pynkiit is14:09
schahermacherthen what should i upgrade?14:09
pynkischahermacher, openjdk is no choice for you regarding java?14:09
pynkineeds to be oracle java?14:09
schahermacheri can consider that, am installing it because i use software that use it14:10
schahermacherif it will work with openjdk i have no problems with that14:10
pynkithere are just a few corner cases openjdk cannot do things oracle can14:10
schahermacherok so first i have to uninstall the jave i already got right?14:11
pynkino14:11
schahermacherjava*14:11
pynkican install them side by side14:11
schahermacherand it will possibly prevent freezing?14:11
schahermacherjust updated everything thgough updater too14:11
pynkithe freezing was always there? or can you say: i did this and that and then it happend?14:12
schahermacherhey afx_ your music is great14:12
schahermacherit's when system is idle14:12

schahermacherok i look at it thanks pynki14:13
pynkisudo update-alternatives --config java that shoudl be the interesting line14:13
pynkischahermacher, but your software might have a config file setting JAVA_HOME or soemthing similar that needs to point to the directory with the JRE14:13
pynkibesides the alternatives thing14:14
schahermacherright.14:14
pynkitomcat for example will need that14:14

Sparrow__pynki, I could make you cry with my stories about 600 baud modems in the 70's14:37
ducasseDelvien: are those scripts?14:37
Delvienducasse: yes14:37
pynkiSparrow__, schahermacher https://grumpymole.blogspot.hk/2007/05/ubuntu-how-to-edit-grub-boot-parameters.html explain to him what to add/remove14:38
ducasseDelvien: can you  pastebin one of them?14:38
schahermacherthanks pynki14:38
pynkischahermacher, 1. Changing Boot Parameters Temporarily this one ;)14:39
Delvienducasse Well, lemme just phrase it this way, i can run fixlcd or fixhdmi and it runs. either with fixlcd or /usr/bin/fixlcd14:39
Delvienducasse: cron just isnt executing them14:39
pynkischahermacher, dw_dmac.blacklist=yes dw_dmac_core.blacklist=yes replaces quiet and splash in grub menu on boot.   Just something to try if fixing  is what Sparrow__  wrote earlier14:39
RawketLawnchasay there is a system with 1TB HDD, and that entire disk is for home directories, so everyone is free to use that 1TB of space, so you think its possible to somehow encrypt everyone's home directory without actually allocating some particular space for everyone ? I mean I know I can just make 1GB file use md-crypt and mount it for every user but14:39
RawketLawncha that would limit everyone to 1GB, so you think its possible to somehow keep that 1TB of free space for everyone and still encrypt everyone's files in home directory ?14:39
ducasseDelvien: yes, but you are running them from an interactive shell, cron isn't.14:40
Sparrow__pynki, thanks nice link14:40
Delvienducasse so if they are only running one line, i can just put that line into cron?14:40
pynkiRawketLawncha, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome14:41
schahermacherjawa - a thousands pleasures not.14:41
schahermacherjava*14:41
ducasseDelvien: that depends on what is in that line14:41
Delvienducasse: xrandr line14:41
RawketLawnchapython - a thousand and one pleasures not14:41
ducasseDelvien: cron can't 'see' your x session. you see why i needed to know what was in that script now?14:42
* pynki loves "Select and install Software" - "Retrieving file 14 of 72 (4h 48min remaining)"14:44
schahermacheri love my terminal, hopefully i learn enough to avoid drag and drop interfaces completely14:45
schahermacherwhat is good guides for basic terminal commands?14:45
pynkidaylu work14:45
pynkiavoid the mouse14:46

schahermacheryes mouse also not necessary14:46
schahermacheram pushing myself to emacs zone14:47
Greyhawknoooo14:48
ducasseDelvien: it *might* work if you put 'DISPLAY=:0.0 ' at the beginning of the xrandr line, but this is just an ugly hack. cron has no access to x sessions.14:48
pynkischahermacher, press "tab" key in the terminal - there are thousands of commands to choose, no guide can teach them to you. when you start doing things exclusively in the terminal - things like copy files, move files, etc etc - you will get used to it. almnost every problem you have could be solved in the terminal as long as you want it and do it. its a question of learning by doing. reading guides will not teach you for a long time14:48
Delvienducasse: yeah, its an ugly hack, but the utilities arent available to make this happen automagically14:48
schahermacherif i press tab nothing happens apparently14:49
Delvienducasse yeah didnt work :/ I think just making a repeating script would work better lol14:50
pynkitypei n any character. then tab. it will show you all commands that start with that char14:50
pynkidon't knwo why just tab does not work :D14:50
SquidwinAfter I finished installation and start restart and remove the installation medium, after that just a black screen shows up14:50
Squidwinwhy doesn't my OS load?14:50
itstonyYou may have to press tab twice to get it to list out all commands14:50
pynkiSquidwin, the hdd the system is installed to is choosen in the BIOS for booting?14:51
schahermacheraha, i see thank you pynki14:51
Squidwinpynki, yes I guess14:51
pynkischahermacher, "man command" will show you the manual. e.g. "man cp" for the copy command. without all the "14:52
Squidwinpynki, it is SSD actually14:52
pynkiSquidwin, that does not matter as long as the BIOS knows that you want to boot from that disk14:52
pynkiSquidwin, just checking the simple thigns first ;)14:53
Delvienducasse: repeating script worked like a charm, prolly convert it to a service at a later time lol14:53
Squidwinpynki, yes the bios option is correct14:53
schahermacheroh yes man i know my favorite is man man14:53
Squidwinpynki, still it does not work it is just a black screen with no text but a keyboard space14:53
schahermacherhow to I resize the screen to see the complete text without mouse?14:53
pynkischahermacher, in a terminal?14:54
SquidwinPlease help guys I have a lot of things to do...14:54
schahermacheryes14:54
pynkischahermacher, no way :D use up/down arrows or google "manpage command"14:54
pynkimost of them are online somewhere14:55
schahermacheri think i read some where it is possible14:55
schahermacherhowever14:55
SquidwinGuys I said I have a lot of things to do, and still the OS does not load!14:55
SquidwinCome on!!!!!14:55
pynkiSquidwin, first of all: boot a live ubuntu from an usb stick14:55
skinuxAPT is stuck running in the background and kill command isn't working, it just starts again14:55
Squidwinpynki, I booted from USB and installed it and finished every information, and I pressed restart and removed my installation medium and waited to use the OS, but it does not show.14:56
pynkiSquidwin, and then someone else needs to take over because i need to sleep. i finally got my installer files downloaded and now have 3 days time to wait for texlive to downlaod14:57
pynkiSquidwin, i know. but fixing that will need an ubuntu started from an usb stick14:57
schahermacherkeep up the good work pynki!14:57
Squidwinpynki, what do you mean?14:57
schahermacherhe means proby that you have to boot from usb again to fix that, to diagnose the problem14:58
pynkiSquidwin, plugin the usb again, boot the usb stick and choose "test ubuntu" or some liek that14:58
SquidwinAnyone please help me, I don't have time, I already spend hours on downloading and buring to USB stick.14:58
Squidwinpynki, ok14:58
pynkia _ blinking is not an error message anyone could work on14:58
Squidwinpynki, should I choose USB from legacy boot or UEFI boot list?14:59
SquidwinLegacy or UEFI boot? Which one?!15:00
SquidwinHello? Legacy or UEFI boot? Goddamit I am running out of time!15:01
ducasse!patience | Squidwin15:01
ubottuSquidwin: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/15:01
schahermacheri feel legacy15:02
schahermacherif it boots it doesn't matter apparently15:02
SquidwinI clicked on what pynki said15:02
SquidwinI clicked on check disk for defects (somehin like that)15:03
RawketLawnchapynki: are  you a brony ?15:03
SquidwinNothing happens again, it is just black screen with no text15:03
SquidwinWhat should I do?15:04
Squidwinpynki, ?15:04
blackflowSquidwin: did you try the legacy boot?15:05
Squidwinblackflow, no, UEFI bot15:05
RawketLawnchaare all new motherboards nowadays have UEFI ?15:05
Squidwinblackflow, why?15:05
blackflowSquidwin: try Legacy15:05
Squidwinit has been thousand times I am turing on and off my PC,15:06
SquidwinOkay what should I choose?15:07
blackflowSquidwin: legacy15:07
SquidwinYes15:07
Squidwincheck disc for defects?15:07
SquidwinTest memory?15:07
SquidwinBoot from first hard disk (mine is SSD)?15:07
blackflowyes15:07
blackflowthat last15:07
Squidwini clicked15:08
pynkiRawketLawncha, a brony?15:09
Squidwinblackflow, it leaded me to installation again15:09
Squidwinblackflow, should install it all over again and what if the same thing happens again?15:09
ducasseSquidwin: did you install in uefi mode or legacy mode? if uefi, where did you the install the bootloader?15:10
=== Decagon is now known as ExecSlim
Squidwinducasse, legacy boot this time15:11
blackflowSquidwin: did you actually try booting from your disk (not usb) in legacy mode?15:11
Squidwinblackflow, YES15:11
blackflowlike, unplugged the usb and/or selected proper HDD/SSD form a boot menu?15:11
Squidwinblackflow, only a black screen will show up15:12
blackflowSquidwin: and if you reboot again (not plugging your usb in), does it reach the grub menu?15:12
Squidwinblackflow, I don't really know it is just a blackscreen without text and I can type nothing!15:13
blackflowSquidwin: well does it? In case it doesn't boot properly, on next reboot it should give you the grub menu15:13
blackflowin that menu you can edit the kernel line to disable splash so oyu can see kernel messages as it boots up, maybe there'd be a clue as to why it halts15:14
blackflowand if you can't reach the grub menu at all, either you're not booting properly, or the installation is botched.15:14
SquidwinThe installtion is getting don15:15
Squidwin*done15:15
SquidwinLets see what it will show after the restart process15:15
blackflowSquidwin: did it ask you where to store the grub bootloader?15:16
Squidwinblackflow, not at all.15:16
Squidwinblackflow, it just asked for filling simple data, thats it man15:17
blackflowbefore you reboot15:17
blackflowopen the terminal and type 'cat /etc/fstab'15:17
Squidwinblackflow, I don't have access to OS now it is being finished installation15:17
blackflowThat will show you the fstab file which contains primary mount points for the system. If it contains a string like '/boot/efi' then that's an EFI installation15:17
blackflowSquidwin: are you installing Ubuntu?15:18
blackflowbecause iirc the installer should allow you to use the OS booted from the USB before you do the final reboot15:18
Squidwinblackflow, no but a Ubuntu based OS, but I had the exact same problem when I was installing pure Ubuntu15:18
blackflowNot ubuntu? We're done here. bye. :)15:19
SquidwinIt is ubuntu flavor15:19
blackflowit's not ubuntu.15:19
blackflowgo ask the devs who made the flavor what kind of changes they did, and to help you with those changes.15:19
Squidwinblackflow, it is Ubuntu based! And again had THE SAME PROBLEM WITH UBUNTU!!!!!15:19
Squidwinblackflow, it is the same!!!!!!15:19
blackflowunless youmean one of the official ones? ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu mate ?15:19
blackflowthen if it is the same, the isntaller allows you to use the OS15:20
pynkiand asks you for the grub install point15:20
SquidwinNoit did not15:20
blackflowyou can start up the installation USB, and chose to "explore", which is  a live env. you can start the installer (it opens a window) so you can use the OS while it installs15:20
blackflowthen it's not the same, is it?15:20
RawketLawnchaSquidwin: so you are asking for help with not ubuntu ?15:20
blackflowubuntu installer also asks where to store the grub loader, if that didn't change recently.15:21
blackflowSquidwin: which flavor is this?15:21
SquidwinASSUME I AM INSTALLING UBUNTU15:21
anddamwhy does claws-mail, a MUA on itself, suggests evolution and sylpheed?15:21
Squidwinblackflow, Zorin OS.15:21
anddams/suggests/suggest15:21
pynkiSquidwin, ok. open the terminal :D15:21
RawketLawnchaSquidwin: why not just use ubuntu and avoid those problems in the first place ?15:21
Squidwinpynki, the screen is empty15:21
SquidwinRawketLawncha, coz I HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH UBUNTU15:22
SquidwinOkay it asks for restart now15:22
SquidwinI will click restart now15:22
RawketLawncha"SAME PROBLEM", sticky caps lock ?15:22
blackflowSquidwin: I'm going to give you support fo ubuntu, and I don't care what it is. So my advice to you is this: check where it saved the grub loader, or if you're a a later stage, open the terminal when it's done and see the fstab file.15:22
kunjiSquidwin: Black screen is pretty generic, there are a whole host of possible issues and they may not be the same in Ubuntu as in Zorin, so I don't see how you have verified it is the same problem.15:22
* pynki reads that zorin os is rock solid and reliable15:23
SquidwinOkay the restart pocess started15:23
blackflowSquidwin: now, if that advice doesn't  help you because your installer doesn't allow that, that's YOUR problem.15:23
Squidwin1 sec please...15:23
RawketLawnchaSquidwin: I don't want to read scrollback logs, what is the exact problem ?15:23
SquidwinRawketLawnha, the problem is, I cannot open my OS.15:24
pynkiRawketLawncha, installing ubuntu likeish os - not booting15:24
blackflowRawketLawncha: black screen upon reboot15:24
Squidwinyes15:24
Squidwinnot booting15:24
kunjiRawketLawncha: From my skimming after install and reboot he gets a black screen, Zorin OS.15:24
SquidwinWTF?! I can move mouse point but the screen is empty and it seems I am not in the OS.15:25
pynkiand the usb does not allow a live system nor does the installer let him choose where to install grub15:25

Squidwinkunji, their IRC channel is frozen and I have to wait till admins send me authorization email SO SHUT THE FUCK UP!15:28
blackflowSquidwin: also, from the grub menu, remove "quiet splash" from the kernel command line, that should give you hints of any problems during the boot15:28
Squidwinso there is no way for help15:28
kunjiSquidwin: O.o  such language, lol15:28

kunjiSquidwin: rich?15:28
Squidwinkunji, crowd.15:28
SquidwinCrowded.15:29
SquidwinNow what should I do?15:29
kunjiSquidwin: You could try booting in safe graphics mode, or with other kernel parameter, e.g. acpi=off15:29
kunjiSquidwin: That should be enough to google a bit with :P, if you aren't seeing GRUB in your boot process to enter such parameter, you can hold down shift while booting to get the GRUB menu.15:29

juanonymouslotuspsychje, how do i do that btw?15:38
juanonymouswithout copying .2 image and reinstalling the os15:38
lotuspsychjejuanonymous: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade15:38
pynkiskinux, running " kill PID && apt-get update" will not work because it spawns again before your apt-get can come throu?15:39
skinuxI am only doing 'kill PID'15:39
pawel_jak zainstalowac linux 4.11 na linux mint 18.1 x6415:39
pynkiand in the time you type your aopt command it spawns again. append it with && apt-bla to the kill command15:40
juanonymouslotuspsychje, will my files be intact?15:40
skinuxSo I have to start it again to shut it down??15:40

ransom_ubuI would like to install a second OS on my computer (debian gnu/hurd).  Unfortunately during ubuntu install I assigned my entire disk to the primary ext4 partition /dev/sda1.   There is a small /dev/sda2 extended partition for which I don't knwo the purpose, and a /dev/sda5 linux-swp partition.  Can I resize /dev/sda1 and somehow create another partition for gnu/hurd?16:07
skinuxAnyone know of a free, easy to install bench testing software16:07
skinux?16:07
ransom_ubuOf course, /dev/sda1 can't be reized while ubuntu is running, so I don't know where to start.16:07
mxh-skinux: What do you want to benchmark?16:08
skinuxmy system16:09
skinuxmemory, graphics, hard drive performance, everything16:09
mxh-skinux: Right but compared to what. This benchmarks 3D performance but what would you compare the score to? https://benchmark.unigine.com/heaven16:09
ducasseskinux: for disk, try bonnie++16:09
skinuxWell, primarily, I want to benchmark RAM16:10
skinuxBut, 3D performance would be good too.16:10
mxh-skinux: For more of a full system benchmark, check this out: https://github.com/lpereira/hardinfo16:11
mxh-skinux: It's in apt so just install it from terminal as usual :)16:11
akikransom_ubu: use gparted live iso to resize your partitions16:12
akikransom_ubu: you don't actually install anything to the extended partition, but into the logical partition under the extended partition16:13
ransom_ubuakik:  Ok, i get the live iso, I should resize /dev/sda1.  Create a new partition with the free space.  Then I can just go install the second os on the new partition?16:19
akikransom_ubu: just make sure you check out before hand how you want to boot the second os16:19
bjrohanIs there any gui way to resize a luks partition? all the tutes on doing so with fdisk has me delete the partition to resize it? There's info on the partition I want to keep16:19
akikransom_ubu: ubuntu uses grub which can boot other oses16:20
mxh-Yes, select the free space and the installer will partition it for you. ransom_ubu16:20
bjrohanIt's a luks partition on a liveUSB with persistence16:20
ransom_ubuakik: grub will work.  It was part of the gnu/hurd before it was used in linux.16:21

babahulkHey all,  I was wondering what people recommend for running Windows 10 as a VM.  VirtualBox or Xen17:02
juanonymousok thanks17:02
ducasseDexterF: weird, it should. maybe it can't see it if it's plugged in while gmtp is open.17:02
DexterFducasse, weird. I think I did sth in the meantime like adb shell auth or something17:02
mxh-juanonymous: Though I cannot tell you if they are compatible with the versions you listed first. Just have to hold your thumbs. What are you trying to install?17:02
juanonymousi am trying to grab a video from youtube, using video download helper17:04
ransom_ubuakik:  I tried the live iso.  It still would not let me resize/shrink the root partition. Is there something I have to do in ubuntu first?17:04
mxh-juanonymous: Could you not just use a plugin for your browser? :)17:04
juanonymouswhich i needed those dependencies in order for my audio and video to work in sync17:05
juanonymousaw17:05
juanonymousok mxh-17:05
juanonymousbtw what is the downside of using a plugin?17:05
DexterFnow it stopped working again... im done17:05
akikransom_ubu: what do you mean would not let? the other partitions don't move by themselves, you need to arrange space for the resize operation17:05
DexterFthansk all17:05
ducassejuanonymous: or youtube-dl17:05
juanonymousducasse, will do17:05
ducassejuanonymous: that is by far the simplest way to grab a youtube video, imo17:06
mxh-Ducasse has it. In the future juanonymous when you find yourself hunting obscure libs, chances are are complete package exists that does the work for you!17:06
juanonymousbtw mxh-, what are the downside of using browser plugins?17:07
ransom_ubuakik:in the resize menu, if I try and change "New size(MiB)", it wont take.  the dialog just restores to the current size.  The minimum and maximum size are the same.17:08
Fabianoanybody using weechat?17:08
juanonymousbut anyway i downloaded the video now17:09

akikransom_ubu: sda2 is a kind of container for the logical partitions in it17:16

onomatopieatgm4883: So I'm realising. Perhaps this is not realistic. Which is a shame.. my xbox is just not good enough for my RPG based tastes17:56
ducasseRicardo_: as it is not in the repos we know nothing about it, especially since you haven't even given us the name. look for support forums or irc channels on their website.17:57
tgm4883onomatopiea: not sure what gaming you want to do, but I'd think that even single booting windows on that for gaming is going to be tight17:57

ddoobbHow do I pass an argument in terminal if oone of the arguments needs it? I'm trying to run gnome-screenshot with the options -c, -w, -f and only -f needs a file name. So -cw work and '-f <filename>'alone works but -cwf doesn't and neither does '-c -w -f <filename>'20:34
ttreadwayhey20:36
tgm4883ddoobb: have you tried "-c -w -f<filename>"20:36
ttreadwaywyd20:36
ttreadwayphotography20:36
geniiddoobb: Try --file=filename instead20:39
ddoobbGot it to work. Turns out I can't use -c and 0f for this program together. Thanks for the help.20:40
ddoobbOne more thing20:43
ddoobbThe gnome-screenshot allows saving the screenshot but is overwrites existing ones. Is there a way I can pipe the output to something that doesn't? Ideally index new ones as 0001, etc.20:45
ducasseddoobb: you could use something like scrot or maim instead20:47

SimonNLddoobb: does you print screen key do nothing?21:25
Brudazealsham_: try typing: ip addr21:26
Brudazealsham_: that will show you your network interface information including ip. As for accessing from the internet that depends on your network setup. Got a router? Are any ports forwarded to the local ip that your server installation is on?21:27
BrudaOr are you directly connected ot the modem?21:27
SimonNLhttps://www.whatismyip.com/  <=  for you www IP adres21:27

ChaiTRexzealsham_: For the command line, try: dig +short myip.opendns.com @resolver1.opendns.com21:28
ChaiTRexzealsham_: It'll show your Internet-wide IP address if there is one.21:28
zealsham_Bruda: am using a router21:28
ddoobbCould I do some bash thing to pass the timestamp as file name? Not very good with bash.21:29
Brudazealsham_: ok. Well, depending on what services you want to access from the internet you'll need to forward the respective ports to the local ip of your server. Of course install/enable/start the services you plan to use.21:29
zealsham_ChaiTRex: it showed 129.56.5521:30
ChaiTRexzealsham_: That's missing a part, but that's your external IP address.21:31
tgm4883zealsham_: well it showed more than that, which is your public IP21:31
tgm4883zealsham_: what are you trying to do?21:31
zealsham_how do i forward port. am trying to set up a private git server on it21:31
zealsham_using something like gitlab21:32

zealsham_how do i ssh into my ubuntu sever right here on another machine21:43
Brudassh name@localip21:43
Brudaif you use the same name on both machines you can omit that part and just do: ssh localip21:44
Brudaobviously replace 'localip' with the actual local network IP of the server machine.21:45
zealsham_how do i get the localip, it seems not working with the ip i entered21:46
Brudaon the server run: ip addr21:46
Brudayou should see inet followed by the local ip.21:47
Brudaignore the loopback stuff. If it's the right ip but still not working make sure you have ssh installed and the service enabled & started.21:48
zealsham_am seeing inet appear twice, one with 127.0.0.121:48
Brudathat's the loopback. Not the right one.21:49
zealsham_and the other with 10.0.2.15/24 brd 10.0.2.25521:49
Brudaloopback is for connecting to the same machine you are sitting on. Has it's uses even though it sounds redundant.21:49

tomreynBruda: it exists when he calculates it.it does not depend on the existence of that file.22:15

Kyokuis there a way to install proprietary Nvidia drivers when secure boot is enabled?22:49
BrudaKyoku: I don't have secure boot. But I think Nvidia drivers should be able to be installed like most other packages or kernels. It doesn't really depend on the boot as much as it depends on the kernel loading the modules. But if I'm wrong I'm sure someone here can correct me.22:53

YankDownUnderSometimes when a Windows 10 partition(s) cannot be read properly, it's because the "hybrid hibernation" in Windows 10 - known as "fast boot" and "fast shutdown" are enabled - and need to be disabled within Windows 10 so that the file system driver (ntfs-3g) can properly read the NTFS partition...just so's y'all know...23:16

trippsthanks alot... my problem is that windows won't boot at all23:17

trippsis it possible for one partition to crash and the other to survive?23:18
trippsnope23:18
Sparrow__tripps, yes23:18
trippsit was just win10 machine23:18
YankDownUnderIn "gparted" (or whichever) - you might need to double-check the "boot" flag for that partition...(there is a small partition for Windows that initiates the boot process - probably the smallest visible partition)...worth checking out...23:18
trippsuh oh...23:18
trippswhat would the 'flag' be?23:19
trippssda, sda1?23:19
Sparrow__prob sda123:19
trippsk, cause sda and sda1 are listed somewhere else, but only sdb and sdb1 show up as the 2nd partition23:20
Nova_deViatorsda and sdb are usually different pieces of hardware23:20
trippsoh....23:20
Sparrow__but I dont do windos any more, someone here will know more.  But your problem is not really ubuntu support ..  more like data recovery or windows23:20
YankDownUnderLook at the "attributes" for the partition in question...(right click)...see if the "boot" is ticked or not...(check all partitions, really...good to double-check and KNOW these things)23:21
Nova_deViatorso different partitions on the same drive should be sda1 sda2 sda323:21
Sparrow__correct23:21
trippsthanks Sparrow__>23:21
