[00:07] ab5ni, If you wish to "test" your system for compromise, do: sudo apt-get install rkhunter => this will install "root kit hunter" - it will update itself and check your system. Personally, I highly doubt you would have any issues with a compromise - however, stranger things have happened...

[00:57] hi guys, i use built-in audio with ubuntu 16.04 and i hear something like feedback noises through my headphone [00:58] i would like to have 16.04 as a container of all of my cisco iso but I am hitting a wall remoting to it so i am wondering if anyone has any experence [00:58] i there any free audio card driver that i can install instead of using built-in? [00:59] the box is running on an xenserver and im trying to have it run on that enviorment [00:59] fou, Truly a question to ask in #ubuntu-server [00:59] using kubuntu, is it ok to use 16.04 or its better to use 17.04? [00:59] environment* [00:59] sorry if my spelling is off [00:59] feedback noises? are you sure that you dont have your microphone active anon_ [01:00] lucas-arg, 16.04 is an LTS version - 17.04 is intermediate...(in between)...the support for LTS versions is obviously long...and support is vastly more "solid" [01:00] implite: i don't have any problem with windows 10 with my headphone? if it is my mic how can i disable it?

[02:43] I had originally planned to run a hardware mirror but the server I have purchased, a Dell T130, has a PERC S130 card [02:44] Which only support hardware raid when running Windows [02:44] I have followed the guide here to configure the software raid [02:44] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID [02:44] And the installer is currently running [02:45] Per the guide, I created pairs of partitions, one for the EFI partition, one for / and one for swap [02:45] But I'm wondering if I actually should have put the swap into mirror? [02:48] is it a raid 1 or 10? [02:48] Raid 1 [02:52] so you have mirrored the efi part too? wouldn't recommend that. swap is on you. it might speed up things or not [02:54] Hmmm, I wasn't sure about the EFI partition [02:54] I've never tangled with a software raid before, what's the potential issue with having the EFI partition in mirror?

[03:02] you input your apssword instead of myPassword [03:02] lets say your apssword 1234 then the command looks like this: echo 1234| sudo -S -e /file/you/want/to/edit [03:03] -S The -S (stdin) option causes sudo to read the password from [03:03] the standard input instead of the terminal device.

[04:26] Can this damage the monitor?/ [04:31] Capable98, I really doubt you can force a lcd monitor to go above its specs [04:33] "6) I unplugged from the BenQ for the evening. I run linux, and I’ve been using xrandr to bump up the refresh rate on the Latitude, and 200Hz feels much, **much** better on my eyes than 60Hz (yes, the Windows install hurts my eyes just as much or more, since I’ve made several adjustments to fonts and font smoothing on this partition)." === me is now known as Guest20021 === Guest20021 is now known as ronin_anubis [04:34] 200Hz feels much, **much** better to him, so it makes me curious if I'd benefit from that as well. [04:36] Capable98, a latitude laptop that has a screen that supports 200Mhz? When did that come out? As we speak probably only a handful of really expensive gaming laptops support that kind of luxury for the eyes (and fps gaming...) [04:37] omg, my old external drive was formats (I think) w/ ext4 + luks [04:37] plug into my ubuntu 17 machine. hasn't a clue what it is. [04:37] Hi, Can't I install Ubuntu to a USB and boot from it with persistence, instead of live CD (and trying to customize it which is failing for me so far) ? Any downsides to this approach? [04:37] funny you should I ask. just installed on my thumb drive - horrible speed [04:37] kostkon, why is 60 hz still standard if he says he notices a big diff using 200 hz? [04:37] just a few hours ago. [04:39] I can get the 150MB/s USB 3.0 flash so speed won't be a major concern. [04:41] Capable98, because they are cheaper [04:41] I just want to add more packages than what's in the live CD and can't do that, so thinking about installing to a USB but not sure if there're any downsides to it [04:42] Capable98, I have no idea, but regardless of what this person is claiming to have achieven with that laptop you need to have a monitor that supports 200Mhz at its native resolution. [04:42] kostkon, The BenQ apparently does. [04:42] kostkon, So the monitor needs to support it and also the computer? [04:43] !info uck | ronin_anubis [04:43] ronin_anubis: uck (source: uck): Tool to customize official Ubuntu Live CDs. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.4.7-0ubuntu2 (zesty), package size 145 kB, installed size 384 kB [04:44] ronin_anubis: booting from usb though, will bottleneck your Os [04:44] Capable98, read this http://www.avadirect.com/blog/frame-rate-fps-vs-hz-refresh-rate/ [04:45] Capable98, a lot of gaming monitors can go up to 240Mhz. And you probably a need a good graphics card as well. [04:46] and a proper conenction!

Is there any similar newer tools ? I'm planning to use this just as an emergency OS but with custom packages [04:49] ronin_anubis, if you want to use a install on the usb stick on another computer as installed for you might run into problems [04:49] ronin_anubis: install from terminal, sudo apt install uck [04:51] ronin_anubis: there are many emergency Os liveusb out there, ready for your wishes also [04:52] lotuspsychje, I get errors when I install from terminal "gfxboot (< 4.2.2) but it is not going to be installed". What other emergency live usb OSs ? [04:53] ronin_anubis: you added ppa's on your system of any kind? what kind of emergency do you need? antivirus? [04:54] How can I connect my ubuntu to hotspot [04:55] lotuspsychje, I wanted to add stuff like eclipse, netbeans, QT, ddd, meld, git and vnc [04:55] ronin_anubis, uck is a dead project, afaik , try cubic https://askubuntu.com/questions/741753/how-to-use-cubic-to-create-a-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-image [04:55] lotuspsychje, didn't add any ppas [04:56] ronin_anubis: yeah for apps like that, better create a live ubuntu yourself then, check oerheks suggestion [04:57] oerheks, lotuspsychje Ok thank you. I'll check cubic [05:04] morning cfhowlett [05:04] yowza ^3 lotuspsychje [05:12] hello, im trying to set up a vpn connection from a vps using ubuntu server 16.04, what is the simplest way to accomplish this. I've tried openvpn and cant get the dns resolver to work and pptpd wont connect period. I have been slaving at this all day any help would be greatly appriciated. [05:13] Rihannsu: the #ubuntu-server guys might be able to help you better [05:14] thanks [05:18] Hi how do I connect to wifi network [05:18] On ubuntu [05:20] Hello [05:21] Is there a way to install desktop Ubuntu on an x86 based Android tablet? [05:22] I have a ASUS Zenpad Z300C (P023) [05:25] zzarr yes, but it's not easy. The thing that is a pain is installing 32-bit grub on a 64-bit iso [05:26] I need grub? [05:26] I can't launch the kernel using uboot? [05:26] That's the way I did it. [05:26] grub that is [05:27] is there a guide? [05:27] http://hackerpublicradio.org/correspondents.php?hostid=300 [05:27] That's my guide. Also follow the links [05:28] in the show notes [05:28] thanks [05:28] n[ [05:28] np [05:28] Is there something I should think about like the Mali GPU drivers are hard to install or WiFi or anything? [05:29] O dpm [05:29] ?? [05:30] I don't know about the GPU, but the wifi is a part of my guide. I have a X205a eebook, but a lot of the same other parts [05:30] nice [05:31] yeah I found it on NewEgg for $149 open box [05:31] I think I will be able to get the GPU upp and running myself, I just wondered if there were an easy way [05:32] The sound doesn't work on mine (Realtek audio), but I'm still on 16.04 [05:33] sound isn't important to me [05:33] I only use it for email and vim, so doesn't bother me [05:33] :D [05:36] Just installed 17.04, going to downgrade to 16.04, as I'm having sound and wifi issues [05:37] My onboard speakers on my laptop sometimes dissapear from the sound thing (and will no longer play sounds), and wifi just cuts out randomly and has issues coming back on when it cuts [05:47] bynarie, my tablet comes with Android [05:48] is there a guide for how to install Ubuntu on a fastboot device? [05:54] hi you fucking faggot nigger bitch cunt ass penis [06:07] sudoedit can be run without supplying the current username's password? [06:07] pagios, sudo will need a pass [06:14] how do I remove a ppa in ubuntu gnome? [06:14] !ppapurge | segersjerry [06:14]
