[00:04] <tgm4883> Alumin: Just to echo everyone else here, you might just ask the networking team if they can do it, and tell them why you are wanting it done. If someone came to me with a sensible request I'd look at implementing. That said, if your servers are always on they shouldn't be flipping IP addresses
[00:06] <GabrielC> will ubuntu-mate go under "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/dns/gnu/ubuntu"
[00:06] <GabrielC> ??
[00:06] <Alumin> guys, I get it, but yeah...I've already been down all those roads, I know what the best practices are.  I wouldn't be writing a shell script to regenerate /etc/issue every hour if I could get DDNS or a static IP :)
[00:06] <tgm4883> Alumin: I'm still not sure why your servers need to run that hourly, they shouldn't be losing their IP addresses
[00:07] <Alumin> they don't, hourly is massive overkill
[00:07] <Alumin> it's just a question of, if it _does_ change, how long do I want to have to wait to get in
[00:07] <Alumin> but yeah, that's why I liked the suggestion of running it out of the DHCP client
[00:08] <tgm4883> Alumin: that's it though, if it's on all the time it shouldn't lose it's IP. That should even survive a reboot
[00:08] <tgm4883> Alumin: but I digress
[00:08] <Alumin> well I dunno what to tell you, it happens.  Not often, but every couple of months or so it happens
[00:09] <Alumin> sheesh I shoulda just kept my mouth shut and left it at /etc/issue :D
[00:09] <tgm4883> Alumin: so what exactly are you trying to do?
[00:09] <Alumin> seriously though, I do appreciate the concern and I get it but I've been down those roads already to get here
[00:10] <Alumin> I already did it :)  Put the machine's IP in /etc/issue so someone can come find it without having to have a login, and tell me what it is so I can update our internal DNS
[00:11] <blkadder> How are you updating DNS?
[00:11] <tgm4883> Alumin: while that sounds terrible to me, I'd at least have it email me the change automatically
[00:11] <tgm4883> blkadder: he does it via a web page
[00:12] <blkadder> Well worst case you could script that I guess.
[00:12] <Alumin> yeah, I was actually just thinking the same thing
[00:12] <blkadder> Pretty hacky.
[00:14] <tgm4883> Alumin: When you update the DNS via the webpage, how long does it take to be live?
[00:16] <kristhian> i am trying to kill this process => lenovo   22271  0.1  0.8 376148 69920 ?        SLl  08:09   0:00 bitcoind -daemo
[00:16] <GabrielC> does repos like this "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/dns/gnu/ubuntu YOUR_UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main" support ubuntu-mate
[00:17] <tgm4883> GabrielC: yes
[00:17] <kristhian> but each time i am trying to stop it, it returns that there is no such process behind
[00:17] <tgm4883> GabrielC: Ubuntu mate is Ubuntu
[00:17] <kristhian> i mean on that
[00:17] <kristhian>  kill -9 69920
[00:17] <GabrielC> THANKS
[00:17] <kristhian> bash: kill: (69920) - No such process
[00:17] <kristhian> trying to run it again

[00:17] <kristhian> Error: Cannot obtain a lock on data directory /home/lenovo/.bitcoin. Bitcoin Core is probably already running.
[00:17] <dax> kristhian: the number you want from that output is 22271, not 66920
[00:17] <kristhian> oh
[00:18] <dax> probably anyway, depends on exactly what command that output's from
[00:18] <dax> pkill -9 bitcoind should work too
[00:18] <kristhian> my bad, sorry
[00:18] <dax> np
[00:18] <kristhian> thanks dax
[00:19] <kristhian> another question, what does pkill means?
[00:19] <kristhian> process kill?
[00:19] <blkadder> Yes
[00:19] <kristhian> ok, thanks

[00:28] <hadilaflare> Hey guys Ive been having trouble installing vsftpd on ubuntu
[00:28] <hadilaflare> I was wondering if someone can help me
[00:28] <tgm4883> hadilaflare: why vsftp and not sftp?
[00:29] <hhzhk2> help what?
[00:30] <hadilaflare> tgm4883 honestly im not sure what the difference is but I wanted to create the same environment i got from shared hosting
[00:32] <Bashing-om> GabrielC: For what it is worth : https://askubuntu.com/questions/817676/how-to-install-ice-cat-on-ubuntu-16-04 .
[00:32] <jiffe> so I am trying to run the prereq on https://github.com/NVIDIA/DIGITS/blob/master/docs/UbuntuInstall.md for 16.04 and the wget $ML_REPO_PKG step is giving me Failed to add GPGKEY at http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/machine-learning/repos/ubuntu1604/x86_64/7fa2af80.pub to apt keys.
[00:32] <jiffe> checking that URL in a browser it does 404 on me, but I'm seeing posts where people fix this by changing their sudoers file
[00:33] <GabrielC> Bashing-om: found it, got the key, verified, and goood
[00:33] <jiffe> I'm running this as root as opposed to sudo so that shouldn't apply here, I'm wondering if I'm missing something
[00:35] <Bashing-om> GabrielC: :)
[00:36] <dax> jiffe: try replacing 7fa2af80 with Release (with capital R) in that URL
[00:37] <dax> jiffe: not sure it'll work, but that 7fa2af80.gpg file is indeed not there and Release.gpg is so...
[00:37] <dax> jiffe: another option would be http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/machine-learning/repos/ubuntu1404/x86_64/7fa2af80.pub
[00:38] <jiffe> hmm neither worked, Release is saying gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. and the 1404 imports but dpkg -i still fails
[00:40] <recceranger> Hi, I'm an OS X user. I finally have the time to install linux on my MacBook (the semester is over), but now I'm having second thoughts. What advantage(s) do I gain by switching to Ubuntu?
[00:40] <dax> jiffe: dpkg -i shouldn't involve gpg at all. Pastebin the entire dpkg -i output and I'll look at that
[00:41] <jiffe> dax: http://pb.jiffe.com/8GtrTWnWiRx6oDu1buwgoS
[00:41] <jiffe> maybe a step internal to the deb ?
[00:43] <dax> jiffe: that URL doesn't work, try paste.ubuntu.com or another common pastebin site
[00:43] <jiffe> oh whoops https://pb.jiffe.com/8GtrTWnWiRx6oDu1buwgoS
[00:44] <dax> jiffe: yeah, it's trying to do the gpg stuff you already did itself, and failing because the URL it's pointing at doesn't exist
[00:45] <dax> ideally the answer here is "nvidia gave you crap, ask them to fix it", but given that it's nvidia i'm entirely unsure they'd actually do so
[00:49] <jiffe> well that tells me what I needed to do, I just redirected developer.download.nvidia.com to my own web server and stuffed 7fa2af80.pub on it
[00:50] <dax> that would work too :)

[02:38] <mentally> Im running an LG ultrawide monitor and ubuntu cant seem to run it at native resolution. I can run one option smaller than native res, but when I select native resolution (3440x1440) the monitor stays black and says 'no signal'. Anyone know if there are drivers or somethig I need to install? I'm a linux newb.
[02:49] <mentally> here's my randr: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24662271/
[02:49] <mentally> the first monitor there is my laptop screen, second is my external display
[03:02] <ponyrider> mentally: sudo xrandr --newmode "3440x1440_60.00"  419.50  3440 3696 4064 4688  1440 1443 1453 1493 -hsync +vsync
[03:02] <ponyrider> mentally: sudo xrandr --addmode DP-1 1680x1050_60.00
[03:03] <ponyrider> mentally: add that to ~/.xprofile for persistance
[03:04] <ponyrider> mentally: sorry i was cutting and pasting ...
[03:05] <ponyrider> mentally: so the --addmode line should be 3440x1440 no 1680x1050
[03:05] <ponyrider> mentally: finally: xrander --display DP-1 -s 3440x1440
[03:22] <mentally> ponyrider, trying your suggestions
[03:24] <mentally> ponyrider, the final line (--display DP-1 -s 3440x1440) says "Can't open display DP-1"
[03:26] <ponyrider> mentally: try sudo xrandr --auto --output DP-1 --mode 3440x1440
[03:27] <mentally> ponyrider, instant black screen (no signal)
[03:28] <mentally> if it helps, I'm running intel core i7 7500
[03:28] <ponyrider> mentally: ok...

[03:28] <ponyrider> mentally: what model is the monitor?
[03:28] <mentally> LG 34UC88-B
[03:29] <ponyrider> mentally: nice!!!
[03:29] <mentally> thanks. love the monitor. it works great with windows but I guess intel's driver support or something is lacking on linux :(
[03:30] <mentally> this is my third attempt to run it at native res, I even installed ubuntu 17.whatever because someone said the oem support was better
[03:31] <mentally> someone on stackoverflow said to go with kernel 4.10 but that may be beyond my abilities at the moment
[03:31] <mentally> how can I tell what kernel I'm running?

[03:36] <mentally> ponyrider, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24662562/
[03:37] <ponyrider> mentally: yeah i would say maybe the driver doesnt support it yet
[03:38] <ponyrider> mentally: but i am not sure, you might find a way if you search the ubuntu forums, or even post there. good luck!

[04:13] <donny> Hi, I have a xeon cpu and setting up a Ubuntu server but the xeon requires a graphic card to run. This is going to be remote managed via SSH. I've checked over grub and can't find any reference to splace being enabled. The server is setup and running but if I take out the Graphic card and start it up it seems like it stalls and can't load or login and I can't ssh into it.
[04:13] <donny> *splash
[04:14] <donny> Any ideas how to enable booting and ready for SSH without having a Graphic card in
[04:16] <anug> i dont know how to edit on terminal ponyrider
[04:16] <ponyrider> anug: open it in notepad or whatever
[04:16] <leftyfb> donny: your server requires a graphics card. Regardless of the operating system on the HDD. Your server is not booting at all without the graphics card
[04:17] <ponyrider> then copy and paste 'sudo update-grub' in the terminal. its that easy
[04:17] <anug> do i have to manually do that
[04:19] <donny> leftyfb: Thank you, I didn't realise it needed a dedicated graphic card when I bought it. Bad researching well kinda. They didn't have the CPU I wanted in stock that could and recomended this as an alternative. Me being me and being in a rush just got it without research. Again thank you
[04:19] <anug> ponyrider,

[04:32] <lotuspsychje> anug: type of amd chipset you can see with: sudo lshw -C video please hastebin it to us?
[04:33] <anug> it was working yesterday, before i changed to nemo file explorer and edited unity icons
[04:33] <lotuspsychje> anug: and how did you edited exactly?
[04:34] <anug> i followed this https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiE4_LS3YzUAhULQ48KHTeZA6AQFgghMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsites.google.com%2Fsite%2Finstallationubuntu%2Ftweaking-ubuntu%2Fchange-default-filemanager&usg=AFQjCNEp4FZCykY83xGKs3oglw0q9tlkZg
[04:35] <lotuspsychje> anug: did you add the nemo ppa to your system?
[04:36] <anug> no, i installed directly from ubuntu software center
[04:36] <lotuspsychje> okay good
[04:37] <lotuspsychje> anug: so after installing nemo, your screen flickers? do i understand it right?
[04:40] <anug> i followed from that link and deleted some unity icons manually and restarted. then i get the boot log screen during boot and then after login. i saw empty screen with no unity launcher and dash, and the desktop files were flickering, background wallpaper was stable
[04:40] <anug> i resolved it removing nemo and restore the deleted icons
[04:41] <lotuspsychje> anug: okay, and now you want what exactly?
[04:43] <anug> i want to get the ubuntu logo back again during boot up and shutdown
[04:43] <lotuspsychje> anug: did you delete stuff from the bootlogo dir?
[04:44] <anug> no lotuspsychje
[04:44] <lotuspsychje> anug: so what does it show instead of the logo then?
[04:45] <anug> lotuspsychje, boot log running
[04:45] <lotuspsychje> anug: text base boot right?
[04:46] <lotuspsychje> anug: till you get to the login screen?

[04:49] <lotuspsychje> anug: video looks good, can you check /etc/default/grub for this line= GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
[04:51] <anug> its only splash, i changed it before from drm.debug=0xe plymouth:debug
[04:51] <lotuspsychje> anug: what do you mean you changed it?
[04:51] <anug> do i have to change it to quiet splash?
[04:51] <lotuspsychje> anug: yes, thats the default
[04:51] <anug> it was GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="drm.debug=0xe plymouth:debug"
[04:52] <anug> i changed it to splash
[04:52] <lotuspsychje> anug: why did you change that exactly?
[04:52] <lotuspsychje> anug: "quiet splash"
[04:52] <anug> okay, ill try it and report
[04:52] <lotuspsychje> anug: dont forget to sudo update grub now
[04:53] <lotuspsychje> before reboot
[04:53] <anug> okay, then after reboot?
[04:53] <lotuspsychje> anug: after reboot quiet splash should give you bootlogo back
[04:54] <lotuspsychje> anug: this is no related to your nemo issue
[04:54] <anug> okay, ill check it
[04:54] <anug> be back after reboot
[04:54] <lotuspsychje> ok
[04:58] <anug> lotuspsychje, now during boot, i saw a single line something like /sda/ and a bunch of numbers
[04:58] <lotuspsychje> anug: but after that you see the bootlogo back?
[04:59] <anug> although bootlogo appeared during shutdown
[04:59] <lotuspsychje> anug: thats normal
[04:59] <anug> no. i did not see the boot logo
[04:59] <lotuspsychje> anug: but you dont see the previous full text booting anymore?
[05:01] <anug> yes
[05:01] <lotuspsychje> anug: yes what?
[05:01] <anug> only a single line, something about /sda/
[05:01] <lotuspsychje> anug: ok, do you have a fast system with ssd?
[05:01] <anug> i did not see full boot log
[05:02] <anug> no, its normal ssd 500g
[05:02] <anug> *hdd
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> anug: on fast systems, ubuntu skips the bootlogo right to login window

[05:05] <lotuspsychje> anug: that sda text is normal
[05:05] <lotuspsychje> anug: depending what it says exactly of course
[05:05] <lotuspsychje> Kabe: can we help you?
[05:06] <anug> okay
[05:07] <anug> so everything is fine now?
[05:08] <lotuspsychje> anug: yes, you could say thet sda text is the time between bootup and bootlogo, but as your system is too fast, its forwards you to login screen
[05:08] <lotuspsychje> anug: unless you have messed in the past with bootlogo change?
[05:09] <anug> i did nothing with boot
[05:09] <lotuspsychje> anug: ok, then i presume everythings right now
[05:09] <StR1ka> Installed ubuntu server successfully, after restarting the computer all i get is a black screen
[05:09] <lotuspsychje> anug: can you explain why you changed that grub text before instead of quiet splash?
[05:10] <lotuspsychje> !deatils | StR1ka
[05:10] <lotuspsychje> !details | StR1ka
[05:10] <StR1ka> Tried loafing grub by clicking right shift, in the boot sequence, i do see upper left corner it says loading grub. But just goes to blacl screen
[05:11] <anug> i asked about this problem earlier, ponyrider replied me to change it to splash
[05:11] <lotuspsychje> anug: yes, but why did you change it yourself?
[05:12] <StR1ka> How do i change it to splash?
[05:12] <anug> why, is that a problem?
[05:13] <lotuspsychje> anug: no, im just curious why to understand
[05:14] <lotuspsychje> StR1ka: we need more details from you, ubuntu version? graphics card chipset+driver? what kind of system/hardware?
[05:14] <anug> he said edit /etc/default/grub, i didnt know how to edit in terminal, so i manually head to file location and changed it
[05:14] <anug> there are lots of grub.bak files in that location
[05:14] <lotuspsychje> anug: somebody from this channel told you to do this? and why?
[05:15] <anug> the first question i raised is -i get this error multiple times during boot,Failed to start Braille Device Support
[05:16] <anug> cause i saw that error in boot log during bootup
[05:17] <anug> he replied with <ponyrider> edit /etc/default/grub
 GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="splash"
 sudo update-grub
[05:17] <lotuspsychje> anug: no..you dont understand me
[05:17] <lotuspsychje> anug: i want to know why it was set to drm debug etc..
[05:17] <StR1ka> Ubuntu version 17.04, graphics internal video embedded with motherboard using vga cpu amd opteron processor 252
[05:18] <anug> it was already there,
[05:18] <lotuspsychje> StR1ka: this is a server for production or testing?
[05:18] <anug> before i changed it to splash as ponyrider mentioned
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> anug: default should be "quiet splash" so i dont understand why it was changed otherwise
[05:19] <StR1ka> Just testing
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> anug: but nevermind, its fixxed now
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> StR1ka: did you also try an LTS server?
[05:20] <StR1ka> Just for Learning purposes
[05:20] <anug> maybe it was changed yesterday while i was doing other things in tty
[05:20] <lotuspsychje> StR1ka: you might wanna tryout 16.04.2 server as a test
[05:21] <anug> leave it, it is now better than last it was,
[05:21] <anug> thanks lotuspsychje
[05:21] <lotuspsychje> anug: np
[05:22] <StR1ka> I did try 16. 04 same result
[05:22] <StR1ka> But ill try again
[05:22] <segersjerry> anug: friendly advice be extraordinarily careful when you are root (when you use sudo)
[05:23] <lotuspsychje> !nomodeset | StR1ka try this also as a test perhaps?
[05:35] <bray90820> So I am having an issue every time I try to setup my JBL flip in 16.04 via bluetooth it says setting up jbl flip failed
[05:42] <Kabe> lotuspsychje, was doing a find to see if anyone answered my question but I don't think anyone here has worked with Active Directory before...
[05:46] <Kabe> Samba/SSSD is giving me this error when I try to join the Active Directory... "Failed to join domain: failed to verify domain membership after joining: Access denied"... Kinit works fine...

Which package is that that Ubuntu has preinstalled, that tries to set a reasonably recent date? Is it systemd-timedated?

[06:11] <StRikA7> Completely black
[06:13] <alkisg> OK; was thinking of another issue that is not what you're seeing; try nomodeset.
[06:14] <StRikA7> How do i get into nomodesef
[06:15] <bray90820> Press E at the grub menu
[06:15] <bray90820> At least I hope it's e

[10:23] <Kendo> Hello
[10:23] <Kendo> I got a problem with mz kubuntu version, i think the last apt autoremove command i executed deleted my kernel
[10:24] <Kendo> now i get a basic grub boot screen
[10:24] <Kendo> how do i fix this best?
[10:25] <Kendo> in this basic grub boot men[ are no boot options or kernels to select
[10:26] <Kendo> menu
[10:34] <LeBronse_> Kendo: What was the last apt remove command you did?
[10:35] <Kendo> apt get autoremove
[10:35] <Kendo> i noticed a kernel was removed i think it was the actual kernel i was using
[10:36] <Kendo> after that basic grub shell appeared after reboot
[10:36] <isene> Need help with hibernation (save RAM to disk): Dell XPS15 (2017 model) w/16GB RAM, Ubuntu 17.04 w/swap file (was 2GB resized to 24GB). Machine will not hibernate - Network powers down, then up and that's it. Could someone give me a pointer on how to debug this?
[10:37] <Kendo> i am sure i have several older kernels on system like kernel 4.5 removed was a kernel 4.8
[10:38] <Kendo> so i think i have to tell grub to boot older kernel 4.5
[10:38] <JackTheDog> Hi
[10:39] <Kendo> but i never used grub basic shell, so i dont know reallz whats to do for this
[10:39] <LeBronse_> Kendo: I really don't know much about grub, so I could be very wrong, but does grub not automatically detect available kernels? Maybe somehow some partitions have been messed up so grub can't find them
[10:40] <JackTheDog> someone I'm stuck with the kernel 4.4.0-70-generic. Looks like Ubuntu is unable to check whether there're upgrades for it with the updates manager nor with apt-get update && apt-get upgrade. Can anybody tell me how to fix it and how to upgrade my kernel to the lastest version (on the Ubuntu repos)? Thanks
[10:40] <JackTheDog> somehow*
[10:40] <Kendo> zeah i think it would be enough to do grub-update but how to call it from grub basic shell
[10:41] <demahum> Brendan Gregg is showing an example here: http://www.brendangregg.com/FlameGraphs/cpuflamegraphs.html
[10:41] <demahum> But it doesn't work for me. The line is: perf record -F 99 -p 73460 -g -- sleep 30
[10:41] <demahum> I am getting help on how to use perf command after this. What am I missing?
[10:41] <sirru5h> Howdy there everyone
[10:41] <LeBronse_> Kendo: Can you ls in the grub shell?
[10:44] <demahum> Sorry all. Solved it. Problem was not existing PID.
[10:45] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[10:46] <tmus> When starting my laptop docked with lid closed and external monitor connected, GDM decides to display the login-screen on the laptop display. Any suggestions how to fix this?
[10:47] <sirru5h> H there BluesKaj
[10:48] <BluesKaj> hi sirru5h
[10:48] <Muimi> Why do people choose ubuntu rather than centos?
[10:48] <kbob> hi BluesKaj
[10:48] <MonkeyDust> Muimi  better ask i #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:52] <JackTheDog> Thanks for nothing
[10:52] <BluesKaj> hi kbob
[10:57] <BluesKaj> JackTheDog,  ??
[10:59] <MonkeyDust> BluesKaj  JackTheDog aske a question, before you entered
[11:00] <BluesKaj> yeah, i figured that ..guess he doesn't feel like repeating
[11:00] <BluesKaj> MonkeyDust, ^
[11:01] <JackTheDog> BluesKaj: someone I'm stuck with the kernel 4.4.0-70-generic.

[11:01] <JackTheDog> somehow, sorry. Forgot to correct it on the text meh
[11:02] <BluesKaj> JackTheDog,  which ubuntu version?
[11:03] <JackTheDog> BluesKaj: 16.04
[11:04] <tmus> JackTheDog, make sure you have the linux-generic package installed - that's the one that makes sure your kernel is updated. The individual kernel packages are not upgraded, but rather installed side by side to avoid a chicken-and-egg problem
[11:06] <BluesKaj> JackTheDog,  perhaps yoit  repos mirror is out of date , have you considered changing it to the UK mirror in the package manager, it's worth a try.
[11:07] <BluesKaj> yoit-your
[11:07] <JackTheDog> tmus: Yep, linux-generic was not installed, weird.
[11:08] <JackTheDog> And it works, it is now installing a new kernel version :)
[11:08] <MonkeyDust> tmus  +1
[11:09] <BluesKaj> good call tmus
[11:09] <tmus> Cool! :)
[11:09] <JackTheDog> Thank you! :D
[11:11]  * BluesKaj wonders why the package wasn't installed in the first place
[11:11] <JackTheDog> Reboot time!

[11:17] <plundra> MonkeyDust: What are you talking about?
[11:17] <hiru> nevermind I found the right package
[11:17] <JackTheDog> tmus: Okay, everything works perfectly now, just joined to say this. Thank you again :)
[11:20] <HexaByte> to answer myself: apt-file search

[11:58] <anug> i've turned on everything
[12:01] <makr> i think gnome-online-accounts is know to be a bit wonky and slow, but when i used it, it worked that way. maybe someone else has an idea?
[12:01] <Raghuram> I just tried the same in ubuntu 16.04, it's not working
[12:02] <makr> yeah, also found a lot of ppl with 16.04+ saying it doesn't work anymore when i did a bit of googling
[12:03] <anug> what else can we do using online accounts
[12:05] <makr> im using rclone for the googledrive stuff atm, but there might be better alternatives
[12:06] <anug> im using nemo file manager

[13:17] <Acou_Bass> guys ive got a slightly odd dual boot setup im wanting to achieve, TL;DR is, i want windows on the main internal memory of my laptop with ubuntu on an SD card in the SD card slot, as a full install rather than a live image... is this something i can achieve with the normal ubuntu installer?
[13:19] <lightslategray> Hi, may I ask non-ubuntu question? Why after reboot mdadm assembles array to /dev/md0 instead of /dev/md1 like I specified in /etc/mdadm.conf?  https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/6f-0xOQmnLkxx8SMXKWv2F5M1UNdIGYhyRLivL9gydE=/raw
[13:19] <_st4t1k> Acou_Bass, did you take a look at this ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromSD
[13:20] <tmus> When starting my laptop docked with lid closed and external monitor connected, GDM decides to display the login-screen on the laptop display. Any suggestions how to fix this?
[13:21] <tmus> ...very annoying - started a few weeks back I believe
[13:21] <Acou_Bass> _st4t1k: so id have to put GRUB on my internal memory, and deal with the SD card slot from there?
[13:21] <tmus> (17.04 Gnome edition btw)
[13:24] <bioescuela> good morning! I think I created an accident, I used the chown command followed by my username and a directory. This caused all of my subdirectories to look as if they are empty! When I look at this partition from gparted it shows that the files are still there. How can I recover my files.
[13:24] <_st4t1k> Acou_Bass,  you would have to add the /boot partition on your internal memory and install grub on your internal memory mbr i believe i haven't tested it though
[13:25] <Acou_Bass> thats fine with me, thats pretty much how i imagined itd go just had to check :) but that help page is awesome because yeah im probably going to run into that issue hehe
[13:25] <Acou_Bass> thanks a lot!
[13:26] <Duality> hi
[13:26] <Duality> how do i disable the console ?
[13:26] <Duality> the login console
[13:26] <mynameisjeff> Hay
[13:26] <Duality> on ubuntu server
[13:27] <Duality> i just want the login to be empty, the screen needs to be black
[13:27] <leftyfb> Duality: remove the monitor
[13:27] <Duality> :D
[13:27] <Duality> no but seriously
[13:27] <_st4t1k> Duality, you mean you want to autologin on a tty?
[13:27] <leftyfb> Duality: maybe put some glue over the VGA port
[13:27] <Duality> _st4t1k: not persee, i just want it empty
[13:27] <leftyfb> Duality: why?
[13:28] <Duality> because a very big screen will be connected to it, and white text is just enoying
[13:29] <leftyfb> why are you plugging a big screen into it if you don't want it usable?
[13:29] <Duality> leftyfb: it kinda is a cosmetic thing
[13:29] <_st4t1k> Duality, im not sure but i think /etc/issue has to do something with what your are looking for
[13:30] <leftyfb> Duality: a large black screen that displays nothing is cosmetic?
[13:30] <leftyfb> _st4t1k: no, he doesn't want the login prompt to show ... which doesn't make any sense
[13:30] <_st4t1k> leftyfb, oh
[13:31] <fallentree> Duality: is it crt or lcd screen?
[13:31] <Duality> led
[13:31] <fallentree> ooh
[13:31] <leftyfb> I still don't understand how a large black screen is useful in any way
[13:31] <Duality> it's not
[13:31] <Duality> but text floating around isn't usefull
[13:31] <bioescuela> good morning! I think I created an accident, I used the chown command followed by my username and a directory. This caused all of my subdirectories to look as if they are empty! When I look at this partition from gparted it shows that the files are still there. How can I recover my files.
[13:32] <fallentree> Duality: consoleblank kernel parameter
[13:32] <leftyfb> Duality: why not plug in a chromecast or something and display pictures? Hell, most smart tv's will display pictures from a usb drive these days
[13:32] <leftyfb> also
[13:32] <bioescuela> how can I revert and recover my files?
[13:32] <Duality> fallentree: that is to disable/enable the blanking screensaver for the console
[13:32] <fallentree> Duality: which is what you want
[13:33] <leftyfb> in /etc/rc.local you an put "exec < /dev/tty2 > /dev/tty2
[13:33] <leftyfb> chvt 2
[13:33] <leftyfb> echo
[13:33] <fallentree> Duality: the screen will go black, you you won't see the login prompt
[13:33] <leftyfb> but again, I just don't see the point
[13:33] <fallentree> Duality: until you hit a key or something. the value is in seconds of inactivity
[13:34] <BluesKaj> Duality,  my TV is my monitor, and I use it the same as nay other monitor, small or large , what's the problem ..really?
[13:34] <Duality> i was just wondering if i could make it black/empyt
[13:34] <Duality> there is no real problem :)
[13:34] <leftyfb> Duality: turn the tv off
[13:35] <leftyfb> why leave it powered on just to display a black screen?
[13:35] <Duality> because it wil go display things
[13:35] <_st4t1k> lol
[13:35] <Duality> but i don't want the console to come through
[13:35] <fallentree> well like I said, put consoleblank=30 in the kernel command line on boot, and it will turn black after 30 seconds of inactivity.
[13:36] <Duality> fallentree: oh wait you can set the timeout on that ?
[13:36] <fallentree> Duality: yes
[13:36] <BluesKaj> Duality,  not usingbthe console is an unrealistic choice
[13:36] <Duality> BluesKaj: tell me
[13:37] <Duality> why
[13:37] <BluesKaj> already did
[13:39] <BluesKaj> Duality,  beleive me if you intend to use the TV as a monitor then the console will be needed sooner or later
[13:40] <fallentree> hence the console blanking screensaver. jeeze.
[13:40] <fallentree> problem solved.
[13:41] <BluesKaj> yakuake is a good choice for the terminal
[13:43] <Duality> fallentree: thanks :) the blankconsole=1 worked
[13:44] <Duality> BluesKaj: it's going to be used as a screen, but not for tv, i can get in remotely
[13:44] <Duality> if i make a booboo it might be a issue :D
[13:44] <Duality> like say disable ssh :D
[13:45] <Duality> or network
[13:45] <fallentree> Duality: you'll want a higher consoleblank value if you want interactivity, or will have to reboot and change the param
[13:45] <BluesKaj> I use mine for TV, pc and rpi, ..it's part of our HTPC setup
[13:51] <Duality> fallentree: i am poking directly into the framebuffer
[13:51] <bioescuela> does anyone know how to revert a directory that all it's subdirectories are currently empty? The command was sudo chown user /directory
[13:52] <leftyfb> bioescuela: restore from backup
[13:54] <bioescuela> leftyfb thanks for the reply, what if I don't have a backup? I see the folders are still there, some files I can see, but most subdirectories are empty
[13:54] <leftyfb> bioescuela: chown will not delete files
[13:54] <Jack_Sparrow__> What did you do to cause it?
[13:55] <leftyfb> bioescuela: what was the EXACT command?
[13:55] <flex_> Hey there ! I am looking for a powerpoint viewer (and found pptview on the net that is not found by apt-get) so I wonder if you know any available solutions?
[13:55] <bioescuela> The command was sudo chown bioescuela /directory
[13:55] <leftyfb> flex_: libreoffice impress comes with ubuntu
[13:55] <leftyfb> bioescuela: which directory?
[13:55] <Jack_Sparrow__> flex_, try to stay in our repos
[13:56] <flex_> leftyfb: It does not support all animations comming from the pptx-format..
[13:56] <leftyfb> flex_: google docs
[13:56] <bioescuela> the directory were I had my documents, but it is in a separate partition
[13:56] <leftyfb> flex_: or office.com
[13:56] <flex_> (Y)!
[13:57] <flex_> Thanks alot i'll check those out
[13:57] <bioescuela> I know from gparted that these files haven't been deleted, but I don't know how to recover them
[13:58] <obo_> Hello does journald forward logs to rsyslog after saving them to the binary log file ?
[13:58] <leftyfb> bioescuela: how are you confirming that a file has been deleted?
[13:58] <leftyfb> or is inaccessible
[13:58] <bioescuela> I get into the file browser and the subdirectories are empty
[13:58] <leftyfb> bioescuela: use a terminal
[13:58] <leftyfb> and ls
[14:01] <bioescuela> OK, leftyfb, now I see the files, how do I access them again?
[14:02] <leftyfb> bioescuela: what directory is this exactly?
[14:02] <leftyfb> bioescuela: is it in your home directory?
[14:02] <bioescuela> it was my home directory in a previous OS
[14:02] <leftyfb> a linux OS?
[14:03] <bioescuela> then I had issues with permissions in some folders and that is why I tried chown, but it didn't work ;/
[14:03] <bioescuela> yes, linux
[14:03] <leftyfb> bioescuela: the issue is probably how you have the drive mounted
[14:04] <bioescuela> this partition is just this ex-home directory, that now I can't access through the file browser
[14:05] <bioescuela> leftyfb, so how can I mount the drive appropriately?
[14:05] <leftyfb> bioescuela: personally, I would rsync the files over to your computer at this point
[14:06] <bioescuela> leftfb: how can I do that?
[14:07] <GeneralSpongebob> Hi, I've switched from Unity to LXDE but I've got no GUI option in the logon interface. How would I switch back?
[14:07] <leftyfb> bioescuela: sudo rsync -av /path/to/files/to/be/copied/ /path/to/new/location/ --progress
[14:12] <bioescuela> Thanks leftyfb, I will try that and let you know what happens

[14:30] <l0llip0p> p0llo: well I found Debian's administriator book to be great source
[14:30] <l0llip0p> since ubuntu is based on debian
[14:31] <l0llip0p> but there could be beter alternatives
[14:31] <p0llo> does that book have apps ?
[14:31] <Jack_Sparrow__> p0llo, distrowatch.com  try a bunch of them
[14:32] <koowgnojeel> LjL: =o_o=

[14:32] <Jack_Sparrow__> p0llo, Logs of this page are an amazing place to find answers too
[14:32] <l0llip0p> p0llo: Sry what do you mean by labs?
[14:32] <MonkeyDust> p0llo  i use 'ubuntu linux cookbook'
[14:32] <koowgnojeel> LjL: Follow me I made a web site for you. @_@
[14:32] <mrchairman> Watcha cooking with that cookbook?
[14:33] <MonkeyDust> p0llo  i use 'ubuntu linux toolbox'   <-- correction

[14:51] <zealsham_> what is the best vpn for ubuntu linux to acess site block for your location
[14:51] <koowgnojeel> LjL: o_o
[14:53] <LjL> zealsham_, VPNs are external services and are not specific to an operating system
[14:54] <LjL> you can use Tor, though, depending on your location
[14:55] <zealsham_> LjL: i need a vpn where i can set destination to a particular country
[14:57] <tgm4883> zealsham_: for checking if your site works from a particular country?
[14:57] <repozitor> i run bash script in temrinal, it uses cpu 100% all the time. i don't how, but my ubuntu kill them automatically after 20s.
[14:57] <repozitor> why ubuntu kill them automatically?
[14:57] <repozitor> and how to disable this option for my process?
[14:58] <leftyfb> zealsham_: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hotspot-shield-vpn-free-p/nlbejmccbhkncgokjcmghpfloaajcffj?hl=en
[14:58] <nacc> repozitor: out of memory?
[14:58] <repozitor> no, all the process works very well,
[14:58] <repozitor> they use only 1kb of runtime memory (i mean dynamic allocation)
[14:58] <leftyfb> repozitor: you probably want to look at your bash script and improve it's efficiency
[14:58] <tgm4883> repozitor: what nacc said. I'm doubtful that ubuntu's seeing your process be a cpu hog and killing it
[14:59] <repozitor> i want to disable this option.
[14:59] <repozitor> but i don't know how?
[14:59] <Jack_Sparrow__> Let the users in @bash see your script
[14:59] <repozitor> what i should google for that?
[14:59] <Jack_Sparrow__> In #bash
[15:00] <leftyfb> repozitor: the problem is probably not "ubuntu killing your process". The problem is probably the script itself which either has a bug or is VERY inefficient.
[15:01] <repozitor> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24667493/
[15:02] <repozitor> not it's ok,
[15:02] <repozitor> these process compute something all the time.
[15:02] <repozitor> so it is normal such this cpu usage.
[15:02] <leftyfb> repozitor: that's your .bashrc
[15:02] <repozitor> of course.
[15:02] <repozitor> somebody request to see my bash
[15:03] <leftyfb> no
[15:03] <leftyfb> your script
[15:03] <leftyfb> your bash script that is causing the issue
[15:03] <repozitor> i run my program directly by this command
[15:03] <repozitor> ./a.out
[15:03] <repozitor> this process have 4 child.
[15:03] <leftyfb> can you post the script?
[15:03] <leftyfb> to pastebin
[15:03] <repozitor> after sometime, all child killed by X
[15:03] <leftyfb> :/
[15:03] <repozitor> maybe OS is X
[15:04] <leftyfb> can you post the script to pastebin?
[15:04] <repozitor> i don't have bash script.
[15:04] <tgm4883> repozitor: paste 'a.out'
[15:04] <leftyfb> "<repozitor> i run bash script in temrinal, it uses cpu 100% all the time. i don't how, but my ubuntu kill them automatically after 20s."
[15:04] <repozitor> my binary?
[15:05] <tgm4883> repozitor: is it a binary or is it a script?
[15:05] <repozitor> sorry, i mean my binary.
[15:05] <repozitor> binary
[15:05] <leftyfb> then the issue is with your binary
[15:05] <repozitor> i'm sure it's ok.
[15:05] <leftyfb> i'm sure it's not
[15:05] <tgm4883> ubuntu's not killing your binary due to CPU usage
[15:05] <tgm4883> unless you setup something explicitely to do that
[15:06] <repozitor> so you think my process killed by somebody except the bash or OS
[15:06] <repozitor> for example because of memory violation?
[15:06] <repozitor> righT?
[15:06] <tgm4883> why would your script have a memory violation?
[15:06] <Jack_Sparrow__> Is it running in some virtual anything..? or on normal install of ubuntu
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow__> tgm4883, I agree
[15:07] <repozitor> normal install of ubuntu
[15:07] <tgm4883> repozitor: where did you get your binary
[15:08] <repozitor> i got it from my friend.
[15:08] <repozitor> i'm sure it's ok
[15:08] <repozitor> because it repeat calculation on many round.
[15:08] <repozitor> every round is ok.
[15:08] <leftyfb> http://i2.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/facebook/000/010/692/19789999.jpg
[15:08] <repozitor> round #21 will fail to compute
[15:09] <tgm4883> repozitor: yea, good luck with this....
[15:11] <leftyfb> repozitor: your issue is more than likely not related to Ubuntu and more likely related to your binary.
[15:11] <repozitor> let me check again, if you think my binary have some issue
[15:12] <neminis> hello! it appears that unattended-upgrades overwrote its configuration file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades, any idea how that is possible? Logs show a sudden change without explanation, followed by a lot of DEBUG warnings
[15:12] <ananteris> hey how do you uninstall the ubuntu automatic software updater?
[15:13] <tgm4883> neminis: if you changed it, then it shouldn't get overwritten. If it was the default then I believe it can get overwritten. apt should ask you during update which one you want to keep
[15:13] <repozitor> how can i see my died child status code?
[15:14] <LufyCZ> Hi, is it okay if I automount not using fstab but a init.d shell script ?
[15:14] <tgm4883> repozitor: right after it dies you could 'echo $?'
[15:14] <repozitor> echo $? print my parent status code, not child
[15:14] <repozitor> i have 3 child, all of them died at the same time.
[15:15] <LufyCZ> That sucks
[15:15] <tgm4883> repozitor: ah fair enough. I suppose I was just guessing what your binary actually does
[15:15] <ananteris> ah.. theres a package called update-manager.. alright I'm out
[15:16] <ananteris> ubuntu is trash and it always has been
[15:17] <tgm4883> what a douche
[15:17] <LufyCZ> uhum
[15:17] <neminis> tgm4883: it was modified to allow for other sources, that's why i am surprised
[15:17] <nacc> repozitor: you need to do better parent/child watching to do that
[15:18] <nacc> repozitor: async child forking won't be understood by $?, that looks at the last command's exit status
[15:18] <repozitor> i know!
[15:20] <repozitor> something strange i found
[15:20] <repozitor> my child process id when they works fine, are 3260, 3261, 3262
[15:20] <repozitor> and when they died, their process id is 2737, 2738, 2739
[15:20] <repozitor> my OS change my child process id?
[15:20] <repozitor> my -> why
[15:20] <filisko> hi guys, when i connect my printer it appears in /dev/usb/lp1, then I run some scripts, I fuck it up and when I unplug it it still persist that /dev/usb/lp1 but of course it does not work, how I can remove it from there?
[15:20] <filisko> force it somehow?
[15:20] <repozitor> nacc, any idea?
[15:21] <LufyCZ> Is it okay if I automount not using fstab but a init shell script ?
[15:22] <nacc> repozitor: um, your PIDs are different every time they run
[15:22] <nacc> repozitor: you have a binary that is presumably buggy. Maybe debug the source.
[15:22] <nacc> repozitor: if you see a "Killed" mesage, check dmesg for the OOM killer
[15:24] <repozitor> nacc, when i fork child, they process id was 326X, and when they killed their process id is 273X
[15:25] <repozitor> i know when i launch new process they give new pid.
[15:25] <nacc> repozitor: then i don't know why you are telling the pid specifically, it's irrelevant
[15:25] <repozitor> but in this case, i give two different process id at runtime working
[15:25] <nacc> repozitor: you 'give' ?
[15:25] <repozitor> sorry
[15:25] <nacc> repozitor: i really think the problem is your code. You have not demonstrated anything else yet.
[15:26] <nacc> repozitor: not sharing any logs, not sharing any output. no source. we don't debug arbitrary binaries for you.
[15:26] <repozitor> i can share my log, i don't have code.
[15:26] <repozitor> i don't see any special message dmesg
[15:26] <repozitor> which log do you need to see exactly?
[15:27] <tgm4883> repozitor: show us any log that suggests it's ubuntu killing the process
[15:27] <nacc> repozitor: show us *anything*.
[15:28] <repozitor> whey my child starts, i print instantly /proc/childpid in my terminal, and after 20 round, i see no such file or directory message,
[15:28] <repozitor> this means they killed.
[15:28] <repozitor> wait to show something to you
[15:28] <nacc> repozitor: or they failed to start before you can print /proc/child/pid
[15:28] <tgm4883> repozitor: doesn't that just mean that your process stopped?
[15:28] <nacc> repozitor: or your code is buggy
[15:29] <tgm4883> nacc: maybe your binary is coded to stop after 20 rounds?
[15:29] <nacc> tgm4883: heh
[15:29] <tgm4883> nacc: I'm only half joking. It's suspicious that every time it stops after round 20
[15:29] <nacc> tgm4883: yeah, i agree -- or possibly a leak elsewhere
[15:30] <nacc> tgm4883: but i assume that was meant for repozitor not me :)
[15:30] <tgm4883> if it was environmental/ram usage, I'd expect it to be at least a little more random than that
[15:30] <nacc> tgm4883: that's a good point
[15:31] <repozitor> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24667761/
[15:31] <tgm4883> although, we have zero idea what this binary does, so maybe it just eats the same amount of ram each round until it dies and it's a large enough amount that it would always hit on 20
[15:32] <nacc> repozitor: um, that script just reads the *same* /proc/<pid>/status over and over
[15:32] <repozitor> tgm4883, no the run always, it's not bounded to 20 round.
[15:32] <leftyfb> repozitor: the problem is with your binary. Please seek support from the person that wrote it to debug and fix the issue.
[15:32] <tgm4883> repozitor: that just shows that at some point it stopped running
[15:32] <repozitor> ok
[15:32] <oerheks> first it is a script, then you posted this http://paste.ubuntu.com/24667493/ and now it is a binairy?
[15:33] <repozitor> really i don't have idea what is wrong with this binary.
[15:33] <nacc> oerheks: yeah it's a binary they don't have the code for.
[15:33] <nacc> oerheks: i think fully offtopic at this point, full stop
[15:33] <nacc> repozitor: neither do we.
[15:33] <tgm4883> repozitor: please look for support from the developer of your binary
[15:33] <repozitor> ok
[15:33] <repozitor> ok
[15:34] <repozitor> leave it alone
[15:34] <Jack_Sparrow__> If it was on the up and up they would offer up the source and notes..
[15:35] <repozitor> oh my god!
[15:35] <repozitor> i found the answer.
[15:37] <repozitor> parent initiate a tcp connection
[15:37] <repozitor> and share it to their child
[15:37] <repozitor> after 20s, my server times out
[15:37] <repozitor> so the child can't send data to socket
[15:37] <repozitor> and because of this they KILLED BY OS
[15:37] <repozitor> i'm so deeply sorry
[15:37] <nacc> repozitor: you don't need to tell us. we already told you it was a bug in your code.
[15:37] <nacc> repozitor: and we really don't care about your code :)
[15:38]  * eelstrebor wishes there were more dvb utilities and much better docs on the existing ones
[15:41] <tgm4883> eelstrebor: there's a few, but in my experience it seems most of the newer software is targeting the network based ones. What are you trying to do
[15:42] <mrrobot_> Hi, I'm having trouble with intel AC-8625 wifi adapter. I have tried installing windows drivers with ndiswrapper, tried a whole bunch of distros. I am currently in ubuntu 16.10, I have read in the forums that this version should work with the wifi card i have but so far i cannot get it to work. Can anyone help me please?
[15:44] <Jack_Sparrow__> mrrobot_, Are you on that machine now
[15:45] <mrrobot_> yes, through ethernet
[15:46] <mrrobot_> i have the firmware file inside lib/firmware, i have also installed intel backport
[15:46] <Jack_Sparrow__> Cool  , so install inxi         and then  Open a Terminal:   inxi -Fxxrzc0 | pastebin       Provide link  -  So We can see what you are working with
[15:46] <Jack_Sparrow__> pastebinit

[15:51] <Jack_Sparrow__> mrrobot_, I am reading this..  https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/360660/wifi-not-working-with-linux-mint-18-1-in-samsung-np900
[15:53] <Jack_Sparrow__> mrrobot_, That looks like your answer
[15:55] <mrrobot_> i have done exactly that before from another thread : https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=241076
[15:56] <Jack_Sparrow__> Then I would try kernel 4.10
[15:57] <mrrobot_> here is the dmesg output
[15:57] <mrrobot_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24667973/
[15:59] <nacc> mrrobot_: the problem is, once you've installed 'intel backport' (where does that come from?), it is no longer ubuntu to debug
[15:59] <Jack_Sparrow__> I cant hel with that, you will need to wait for someone else
[15:59] <nacc> mrrobot_: you would need to ask the intel backport driver folks to help debug why it doesn't work
[16:00] <mrrobot_> well i would not have installed it if it worked without it in ubuntu
[16:00] <nacc> mrrobot_: right, but we can't debug what a driver that is not part of ubuntu does or doesn't do
[16:00] <nacc> mrrobot_: you understand that, right?
[16:00] <mrrobot_> Jack_Sparrow__, thanks
[16:01] <nacc> mrrobot_: i would potentially see if the 17.04 live usb works, with that wifi card
[16:01] <nacc> mrrobot_: if it does, install that, or wait for 16.04.3
[16:02] <Argo456> How to create own distro based on Debian/Ubuntu?
[16:03] <nacc> Argo456: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DerivativeDistroHowto ?
[16:03] <nacc> Argo456: but not really a support topic at the same time
[16:03] <oerheks> Argo456, start removing the branding, etc
[16:03] <mrrobot_> nacc, i have allready tried 17.04, id does not work. can I try upgrading to kernel 4.9? can you recommend what should i get and how to install? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.9/
[16:03] <nacc> mrrobot_: well, 17.04 has 4.10
[16:03] <Argo456> I need good manual or howto
[16:04] <nacc> mrrobot_: so not sure why 4.9 is relevant?
[16:04] <nacc> Argo456: did you read that wiki page?
[16:04] <oerheks> mrrobot_, ah, you are still on 4.8 ??
[16:04] <Argo456> yes
[16:04] <Argo456> only remastersys
[16:04] <mrrobot_> nacc, some dude said upgrading to 4.9 worked for him, i'm desperate enough to try anything
[16:05] <mrrobot_> oerheks, yes. 4.8
[16:05] <Argo456> but remastersys died
[16:05] <nacc> mrrobot_: that doesn't make sense to me, but you can install a 4.9.30 kernel from the ppa, i guess, just to test
[16:05] <oerheks> your yakkety sources would give 4.10 with apt full-upgrade i think
[16:05] <nacc> oerheks: no, yakkety is 4.8 based
[16:06] <nacc> oerheks: zesty is 4.10
[16:06] <oerheks> oops, my bad
[16:06] <mrrobot_> so 4.10 does what 4.9 does but better?
[16:07] <oerheks> you could try the live iso, see if that AC-8625 works ootb
[16:07] <nacc> mrrobot_: i mean it's 'later'. from a hardware support perspective, that should be true. There are sometimes bugs, but it's not clear what your actual issue is
[16:07] <nacc> mrrobot_: as, afaict, in the log you just pastebinned, the device is recognized successfully by the kernel
[16:08] <Argo456> How to create own distro based on Debian/Ubuntu?
[16:08] <Jack_Sparrow__> Argo456, This is not the place to ask..
[16:09] <Argo456> where to ask?
[16:10] <mrrobot_> nacc, that is exactly my point, it should work but it doesn't. modprobe command gives me no error. i can't remember the distro but some output gave me wifi device software blocked: no , hardware blocked: yes. i read that i should push the button to enable wifi, but i do not have such a button
[16:10] <Jack_Sparrow__> try a chat room not the suport room
[16:10] <Jack_Sparrow__> mrrobot_, You have a key combo..   win key is super key
[16:10] <nacc> mrrobot_: look at rfkill output
[16:11] <mrrobot_> oerheks, thanks, already did, no dice
[16:13] <mrrobot_> Jack_Sparrow__, i have a FN key, and yes, i have checked, i have only airplane mode and it does nothing
[16:14] <Argo456> How to create own distro based on Debian/Ubuntu?
[16:14] <mrrobot_> nacc, yes it's rfkill list
[16:15] <Argo456> hey?
[16:15] <MonkeyDust> Argo456  that's beyond the scope of this channel, try ##linux or so
[16:15] <mrrobot_> the fn+ airplane mode unblock software block but not hardware block
[16:15] <Argo456> there need to reg
[16:15] <MonkeyDust> Argo456  yes, !register first
[16:15] <Argo456> no
[16:15] <Argo456> its not open
[16:16] <MonkeyDust> Argo456  ok, go to #ubuntu-offtopic for more tips
[16:16] <Argo456> no
[16:17] <Argo456> there no people
[16:19] <mrrobot_> nacc, Jack_Sparrow__ will you be around untill i install the latest ubuntu version to do it again from scratch or should i try solving this on my own?
[16:19] <Jack_Sparrow__> ill be here for the most part
[16:20] <mrrobot_> LTS or 17.04?
[16:20] <nacc> mrrobot_: yes, i'm around. I would try 17.04, as it appears to be a kerenl issue. I'm not sure i understood your last comment, though
[16:20] <nacc> mrrobot_: 'it's rfkill list'
[16:21] <nacc> mrrobot_: does that mean rfkill lists it as hardware blocked ?
[16:21] <Jack_Sparrow__> win keyand ?
[16:22] <mrrobot_> nacc, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24668318/

[16:22] <nacc> mrrobot_: right, so nothing will work until you lift the block
[16:22] <nacc> mrrobot_: so use `rfkill unblock`?
[16:23] <Jack_Sparrow__> windows key and F3 will toggle my wifi
[16:24] <nacc> Jack_Sparrow__: that's not the issue here, it's not soft blocked
[16:32] <Jack_Sparrow__> Hey nacc Sorry, I was trying to eat and follow.  He asked a long time ago about the super key and was not sure
[16:34] <nacc> Jack_Sparrow__: ah ok, np
[16:36] <eelstrebor> tgm4883, i'm trying to do blind scan with my dvb card - w_scan appears to be the only one that doesn't need an initial tuning file but i don't believe that it is true blind scan because my display says it's using some kind of channel list (that i can't find)
[16:37]  * eelstrebor is trying his hand at writing some C coding for blind scan - but the docs at linuxtv are somewhat lacking
[16:38]  * eelstrebor can open and close the dvb card and can get card capabilities, so far
[16:39]  * eelstrebor needs to figure out how to read and write to the card - the docs aren't clear on that
[16:40] <Jack_Sparrow__> eelstrebor, Since this is not really a Ubuntu Support issue perhaps you would be better off in /j #c++
[16:43] <tgm4883> eelstrebor: it's been awhile since I've tried scanning a dvb card, but have you tried dvbscan?
[16:44] <tgm4883> eelstrebor: also, I think that if you don't give it a channel list that it uses one for your country. No sense in scanning frequencies that aren't in your range
[16:46] <eelstrebor> tgm4883, sat freqs are pretty much the same worldwide - one just has to specify which lnb type that one is using - but dvbscan doesn't blind scan - i'll research this some more before continuing at ##C
[16:48] <tgm4883> eelstrebor: you didn't mention satellites ;)
[16:53] <Ab3L> hi
[16:54] <Ab3L> could you give me a help for an user?
[16:54] <Ab3L> he was on ubuntu 16.04. then he upgraded to 16.10 and now to 17.04, but he's finding some issues when he do a sudo apt-get update
[16:54] <Ab3L> the error message says that /var/lib/apt/lists/lock is inaccessible.
[16:55] <Ab3L> here the result of ls -alR /var/lib/apt/lists/
[16:55] <Ab3L>  https://thepasteb.in/p/qjhLwXk8Eq4uB
[16:55] <Ab3L>  look at lines 109 and 88.
[16:55] <Ab3L> in line 88 is it correct that owners are "_apt  root"  and not "root root" ?
[16:57] <wafflejock> Ab3L, looks the same here
[16:57] <wafflejock> Ab3L, drwx------ 2 _apt root    28672 mag 24 17:17 partial
[16:58] <Ab3L> wafflejock1: are you saying also that you cannot do any sudo update without an error?
[16:58] <wafflejock> Ab3L, no I mean my file permissions show the same
[16:58] <wafflejock> no issue here
[16:58] <wafflejock> Ab3L, I'm still on 16.04 here too though
[16:59] <DJones> Ab3L: There isn't another apt prcoess running at the same time? automatic upgrades, another apt-upgrade process, synaptic or software centre open at the same time?
[16:59] <wafflejock> not sure about that error
[17:00] <Ab3L> he's told me that no. but we cannot be sure about it. really. trust me.
[17:00] <Ab3L> i'll tell him to shut down and restart. maybe it will solve the problem.
[17:00] <DJones> Ab3L: My first thought was that another apt process was running, maybe ask them to rerun the command when nothing else is running
[17:00] <wafflejock> Ab3L, yeah would reboot after a bit to just be sure nothing is really locking the update that should be
[17:00] <oerheks> sudo apt-get clean and re-run: sudo apt-get update
[17:01] <Ab3L> sure. ok. thank you. bye.
[17:11] <xcyclist> Still trying to find out how to reduce usage in my $HOME/.cache directory, which is using over 2gig of disk.
[17:14] <kostkon> xcyclist, it's not that much space to be honest
[17:16] <blkadder> xcyclist Delete unneeded files in the directory?
[17:18] <tomreyn> you could use "du -sh $HOME/.cache/*" to get a better idea of what's allocating the space, which may allow you to take counter measures.
[17:18] <tomreyn> for example, firefox consumes a lot of the space here, and i could configure it not to cache to disk instead.
[17:18] <reporeporepo> Hi all, you know when packages have "Section: web" when you do a dpkg --info... what sections exist?  Ihave been googling but cant find? trying to exclude some sections from my mirroring
[17:18] <tomreyn> or if you have muzch RAM, you could even make it a RAM disk.
[17:19] <tomreyn> reporeporepo: https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/
[17:20] <reporeporepo> tomreyn: thanks!
[17:20] <pakcjo> Hello, I have a question about trusty, is the glibc version there modified in some way? it seems not to honor LOCPATH variable, actually setting LOCPATH seems to disable locales
[17:20] <tomreyn> reporeporepo: the subdirectories / links on this page will contain the very section identifiers.
[17:21] <pakcjo> ldd --version reports EGLIB 2.19-0ubuntu6.11
[17:21] <mrrobot_> nacc, Jack_Sparrow__ hello again
[17:23] <tomreyn> pakcjo: the patches applied for ubuntu http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/e/eglibc/eglibc_2.19-0ubuntu6.11.debian.tar.xz - also check the changelog http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/e/eglibc/eglibc_2.19-0ubuntu6.11/changelog
[17:24] <pakcjo> thanks tomreyn
[17:27] <pakcjo> tomreyn: there's nothing on the changelog about LOCPATH, (nothing recent at least), why is LOCPATH not working as expected?
[17:29] <mrrobot_> hi, i'm running on machine with an intel AC-8625 wifi adapter, i cannot get it to work. Anyone can help me please?
[17:29] <tomreyn> pakcjo: i would not know, i am not familiar with any variable of the name "LOCPATH"
[17:30] <pakcjo> If I do: LANG=fr strace ./myapp 2>&1 | grep '\.mo' strace shows that myapp.mo are trying to be read from /usr/share/locale/* but the moment I set LOCPATH, nothing shows
[17:31] <eelstrebor> tgm4883, i should be more specific - i was planning on getting a pcie card that'll do dvb-t also and that is country specific
[17:32] <pakcjo> Could this be a bug? https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Locale-Names.html unless my user is privileged (whatever that means), i'm running it as a normal user (not root, not sudo, not su)
[17:32] <tomreyn> pakcjo: i just learnt about LOCPATH by reading locale(1) - it contians an example which you could also test against.
[17:33] <tomreyn> pakcjo: maybe also ask in #ubuntu-devel
[17:33] <Jordan_U> pakcjo: What are you setting LOCPATH to?
[17:34] <pakcjo> Jordan_U: to a directory with the locales of my app
[17:34] <Jordan_U> pakcjo: Please provide the exact value you are setting LOCPATH to.
[17:35] <pakcjo> Jordan_U: second, let me try it with another app
[17:37] <pakcjo> Jordan_U: for example, setting it to /usr/share/locale fails
[17:37] <hamdjan> hi
[17:40] <hamdjan> i noticed /usr/bin/unattended-upgrade run yesterday and upgraded for me the new samba vulnerability. i see there's a unattended-upgrade.service file but there's no timer for it and its not enabled, so what manages its automatic execution? i didnt find it in cron nor in crontab either
[17:42] <pakcjo> another example, maybe I'm missing something
[17:43] <Jordan_U> pakcjo: What does strace show if you grep for "/usr/share/locale" instead of '\.mo'?
[17:43] <hamdjan> ah i think /etc/cron.weekly/apt-compat starts it!
[17:44] <pakcjo> if I do: LANG=fr_FR.utf8 strace gedit 2>&1 | grep '\.mo' I can see strace shows the open instructions to .mo files in /usr/share/locale, however if I set LOCPATH=/usr/share/locale it doesn't
[17:44] <Bashing-om> hamdjan: The types of updates you can do automatically are set by /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades , which is provided by the 'unattended-upgrades' package. It's powerful - many of those options do not have a corresponding checkbox in the GUI.
[17:46] <Xz__> hi there, I have custom kernel (ubuntu + patches). Can I build myself whole image with kernel + userspace?
[17:46] <pakcjo> Jordan_U: that grep suggestion is better, it tries to open LC_IDENTIFICATION on the LOCPATH
[17:46] <Xz__> I couldn't find tutorial nor sources for userspace build
[17:46] <pakcjo> Jordan_U: thanks, I have a new clue now :)
[17:47] <mrrobot_> hi, anyone can help me with my wifi problem? i have the ubuntu wifi script output here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24669015/
[17:51] <hamdjan> Bashing-om, yeah, it's useful! i thikn /etc/cron.weekly/apt-compat is what actually runs the stuff configured in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades
[17:51] <hamdjan> or rather /etc/cron.daily/apt-compat
[17:51] <nacc> mrrobot_: have you tried rfkill unblock?
[17:52] <mrrobot_> nacc, if i rfkill unblock 0 it only unblocks software
[17:53] <ubuntu> hello
[17:53] <nacc> mrrobot_: there is some hardware switch, i don't know where, blocking your device
[17:53] <nacc> mrrobot_: there isn't anything ubuntu can do about it
[17:54] <nacc> mrrobot_: did you add this device to your machine? or did it come with it? what machine is it?
[17:54] <mrrobot_> nacc, there is no hardware switch, i run windz 10 dualboot and it works ootb there. it's a lenovo y520
[17:55] <Guest31180> I don't know how to add device to my machine, can help me please?
[17:55] <Xz__> hey, I want to build ubuntu from source, is there some tutorial out there?
[17:55] <isene> Clean install of 17.04 creates a swap file instead of a swap partition. But then hibernate (save RAM to disk) doesn't work. I've looked hard around to find ways to get hibernate to work with a swap file - but the recipes found are outdated. Could anyone here help wlak me through getting hibernate to work with a swap file (I have 16GB RAM).
[17:56] <isene> s/wlak/walk/
[17:56] <Bashing-om> hamdjan: Yup; see: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2343732 ; https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2339387 .
[17:56] <TheSwede86> Hiya! I am trying to make "v4l-dvb" on 16.04 but I get an error that it is lacking "include/linux/version.h". I've gone into "4.8.0-52-generic" and "touched" version.h and another file so now I don't get that specific error but a whole range of other ones. I'm guessing I did something wrong when "touching" those files and not actually creating them?
[17:57] <nacc> TheSwede86: that is absolutely not the correct way to fix that error.
[17:57] <nacc> TheSwede86: you were probably missing your linux-headers package.
[17:58] <nacc> isene: https://wiki.debian.org/Hibernation/Hibernate_Without_Swap_Partition ?
[17:58] <blkadder> mrrobot_, ideapad_wlan
[17:58] <nacc> mrrobot_: i'm not sure, it could be a firmware issue then (not driver, i don't think)
[17:59] <hamdjan> Bashing-om, ah thanks for assuring!
[17:59] <TheSwede86> nacc: Ah I thought as much. The thing is I have downloaded them and still get the version.h error. "linux-headers-4.8.0-52-generic is already the newest version (4.8.0-52.55~16.04.1)."
[17:59] <isene> nacc: Thanks - I didn't get to that one. Commencing trying this out...
[18:00] <nacc> mrrobot_: try this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/893384/wifi-doesnt-work-on-fresh-ubuntu-16-04

[18:00] <mrrobot_> blkadder, what do you mean?
[18:00] <blkadder> That showed hard disabled.
[18:00] <Bashing-om> hamdjan: :) All in the care and feeding of our 'buntu .
[18:00] <blkadder> According to the link I just sent you the issue is ideapad_laptop module
[18:01] <nacc> TheSwede86: ah sorry, not linux-headers, linux-libc-dev
[18:01] <solexious> Just did a fresh install of ubuntu server. nslookup works to give me the ip of an address but ping/wget etc can't find the host name. Any ideas?
[18:01] <TheSwede86> nacc: No worries :) I seem to have that already installed as well :( "linux-libc-dev is already the newest version (4.4.0-78.99)."
[18:02] <nacc> TheSwede86: is therea f ile /usr/include/linux/version.h ?
[18:02] <wadie> Why does Ubuntu underlines should've as a spilling mistake ?
[18:02] <wadie> Why does Ubuntu underline should've as a spilling mistake ?
[18:02] <nacc> wadie: Ubuntu doesn't underline anything. Some application you are using is doing that.
[18:03] <TheSwede86> nacc: Yepp with the contents of "#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 263230
[18:03] <TheSwede86> #define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))"
[18:03] <nacc> wadie: what application are you using?
[18:03] <wadie> nacc it's the same thing in Firefox and Hexchat
[18:03] <wadie> so I figured it would be Ubuntu
[18:03] <mrrobot_> nacc, blkadder thank you, will try that
[18:04] <nacc> wadie: no, firefox has its own spell checker (afaik) if you enable it
[18:04] <nacc> wadie: i'm fairly sure that's application specific
[18:04] <nacc> wadie: but in any case, because "should've" isn't a proper contraction in english
[18:05] <nacc> TheSwede86: can you pastebin the exact command and output you get from the build?
[18:05] <TheSwede86> nacc: Sure mate. Brb
[18:06] <hosas> ioria: I tried running "do-release-upgrade --sandbox" a bug report outputted  (apparently it's a know issue ), any suggestions?
[18:06] <wadie> nacc I think you meant informal, but they're proper

[18:09] <nacc> wadie: no, i mean it's not a recognized contraction in english by any spell checker i can find. others are.
[18:09] <DoublePlusGood23> ahhh, wrong channel
[18:09] <nacc> TheSwede86: where does it mention version.h?
[18:09] <wadie> nacc weird..because would've and could've are totally fine
[18:09] <wadie> anyway thx
[18:10] <antinulled> hi there
[18:10] <antinulled> any1 around here?
[18:10] <wadie> antinulled, yep
[18:10] <wadie> hii
[18:10] <TheSwede86> nacc: It doesn't now since I ehm "touched" the files to create them. I am trying to find the command I issued and where (in which folder) I issued them
[18:10] <antinulled> I've some some pretty bad problems with my mic and wondered if maybe some of you guys could help me
[18:11] <antinulled> !exit
[18:11] <antinulled> lol
[18:12] <nacc> TheSwede86: touching them shouldn't have created any files, at least no if the file you said was present already was
[18:12] <nacc> TheSwede86: i think you did something rather wrong and need to rm the files you touch'd
[18:12] <antinulled> hi
[18:13] <antinulled> any of you got any idea why a microphone wouldn't work on Ubuntu 16.04.02TLS?
[18:13] <jayjo> if I would like to connect my ubuntu machine to an openvpn server in my aws vpc, can I somehow have it try to establish the vpn connection on start, and if it fails just continue to access the broader internet
[18:13] <Mehul> Does Ubuntu LTS GA releases assures stable kABI for its life time?
[18:14] <nacc> Mehul: you mean for 3rd party modules?
[18:14] <nacc> Mehul: well, there are multiple kernels in the LTS release, so not in that sense
[18:14] <Mehul> Yeah, but say if i stick to 16.04.0 which is GA release
[18:14] <TheSwede86> nacc: Yeah thought as much. Removed "autoconf.h" and "version.h" in "/usr/src/linux-headers-4.8.0-52-generic/include/linux", will have another go
[18:15] <nacc> Mehul: i am not sure there is an explicit kABI -- you can ask in #ubuntu-kernel maybe
[18:15] <Mehul> nacc: Thanks will do that
[18:15] <TheSwede86> nacc: Another paste with the "version.h" error this time: https://pastebin.com/AdLJ6ktZ
[18:16] <nacc> TheSwede86: -I/include ??
[18:16] <nacc> TheSwede86: this seems like a buggy Makefile
[18:17] <buhduh> hello- I have a problem 'ssh -p 12345 user@host' works, but 'autossh -p 12345 user@host' does not - autossh prints the default help message, implying it doesn't recognize the -p argument - which makes sense but I thought autossh passes arguments to ssh? This used to work before too
[18:18] <TheSwede86> nacc: If you meant that I should run "-I/include" in "/home/xxx/v4l-dvb" I get "No such file or dir". In "/usr/src/linux-headers-4.8.0-52-generic/include/linux" gives the same result.
[18:18] <nacc> TheSwede86: no, i did not meant that :)
[18:20] <mrrobot_> nacc, blkadder thanks for the help. it works!
[18:20] <nacc> TheSwede86: did you read README? are you invoking ./build?
[18:20] <nacc> TheSwede86: note, theire instructions do *not* tell you to run make
[18:20] <IntelCore> buhduh - lookup arguments for ssh, and read on autossh
[18:21] <TheSwede86> nacc: There is just "To compile both v4l and dvb, just do:
[18:21] <TheSwede86> 	make
[18:21] <TheSwede86> To install over kernel's old files:
[18:21] <TheSwede86> 	make install"
[18:21] <leftyfb> buhduh: the easiest thing to do is to setup a profile for the host in ~/.ssh/config which specifies the port and anything else you need
[18:21] <nacc> TheSwede86: hrm, what git repository did you use? or did you get a tarball?
[18:21] <nacc> TheSwede86: tbh, at this point, you're better off asking v4l-dvb folks
[18:22] <buhduh> IntelCore: leftyfb no - I think it's a bug - it works correctly in autossh 1.4d but not in autossh 1.4e
[18:22] <leftyfb> buhduh: ok, then file the bug
[18:22] <solexious> Just did a fresh install of ubuntu server. nslookup works to give me the ip of an address but ping/wget etc can't find the host name. Any ideas?
[18:22] <TheSwede86> Yeah I thought as much. Just wanted to make sure I hadn't done anything noobish and forgottens omething that might have been implied.
[18:22] <IntelCore>   autossh [-V] [-M port[:echo_port]] [-f] [SSH_OPTIONS]
[18:23] <IntelCore> I dont see any =p  argument
[18:25] <buhduh> IntelCore: read the rest of man, all arguments other than -V and -M and -f are supposed to be passed to ssh as ssh arguments
[18:28] <IntelCore> buhduh - use -M  in auto for a port
[18:28] <TheSwede86> nacc: Thanks! I'll try and get help from them :)
[18:29] <leftyfb> IntelCore: that's a monitoring port
[18:32] <IntelCore> try -W host:port  in ssh config
[18:33] <leftyfb> there's no need to do -W in ssh config. But I already suggested ssh config and was given a "meh"
[18:33] <hashwagon> My system is currently stuck at boot with what looks to be a fsck, it's been showing: /dev/sda1: clean, 57308/1179648 files, 414602/4718592 blocks without changing or updating for the last 10 minutes.. is this normal or do I have a bad spinning hard drive?
[18:34] <IntelCore> yea.. it is per user and system-wide ssh_conf
[18:34] <bray90820> Maybe someone here can help me every time I try to connect my my bluetooth speaker to 16.10 it connects for a second then disconnects
[18:36] <leftyfb> buhduh: I have autossh version 1.4e-2 on Ubuntu 16.04 and it works fine specifying the port on the command line
[18:36] <EriC^^> hashwagon: that msg is normal, try pressing ctrl+alt+del to restart though
[18:36] <EriC^^> hashwagon: if it happens again it might be hanging at starting the display manager so try ctrl+alt+f1
[18:36] <Bashing-om> hashwagon: Like a grapic's driver issue . Can you boot in recovery mode from grub's boot menu ?
[18:37] <Jordan_U> hashwagon: Unfortunately that message means that the check is finished, meaning it hung some time after that in something else, but just the output doesn't tell us what.
[18:38] <hashwagon> Okay looks like that got me to a tty1 login. This is on an ubuntu 16.04 server. I used kickstart for an unattended install and that happened on the first boot. Hmmm.
[18:39] <buhduh> IntelCore: -M is for the monitor_port - not the ssh port
[18:39] <IntelCore> buhduh --   /etc/ssh/ssh_config  is system wide
[18:39] <buhduh> leftyfb: interesting, I didnt see 1.4e-2 on http://www.harding.motd.ca/autossh/
[18:40] <buhduh> IntelCore: that isn't solution in my current scenario, unfortunately
[18:40] <leftyfb> buhduh: the -2 is probably from ubuntu
[18:40] <IntelCore> you system not user conflict?
[18:40] <leftyfb> autossh 1.4e
[18:40] <leftyfb> buhduh: why isn't ssh config a solution?
[18:41] <IntelCore> there are 2 config, one per user, one for system
[18:43] <genii> Just put user configs in the skel directory, system config in the /etc
[18:44] <IntelCore> leftyb - and you get -p in autossh ?
[18:44] <leftyfb> IntelCore: yes, it works just fine
[18:44] <IntelCore> and ssh uses port?
[18:45] <leftyfb> I tested it with a reverse tunnel to a hostname not in my ssh config. I then ssh'd to the remote host and was able to ssh to localhost:port to come back to my machine. So yes, it works
[18:47] <arooni> anyone use the pomodoro time tracking system?  do you have a command line POM tracker that you like?  ideally would be cross platform and runs on mac + ubuntu linux.
[18:47] <nik> Yo, folks! How is it going? :)
[18:47] <Delvien> !hi | nik
[18:48] <IntelCore> eh, no -p in manpage
[18:48] <Delvien> !hello | nik
[18:48] <Delvien> gahh...
[18:48] <hashwagon> Bashing-om: I'm getting the same thing on the first reboot. I'll see if anything comes up in journalctl.. any other logs I could check?
[18:48] <leftyfb> IntelCore: autossh passes all that to ssh

[19:02] <IntelCore> Dovecot and Courier are two popular and excellent IMAP/POP3 servers.
[19:03] <websterlake> new to gnu/linux/ubuntu, have enabled ufw, and have registered nick with freenode, unable to get Konversation to connect.  It says "found hostname" "no ident response" Do I need to open tcp113 inbound to make this work?
[19:04] <IntelCore> ident to server
[19:04] <Jordan_U> !ve | aleoreina

[19:04] <aleoreina> Jordan Hi.
[19:05] <Jordan_U> aleoreina: The channel #ubuntu-ve is for venezuela .
[19:05] <aleoreina> thanks
[19:05] <Jordan_U> aleoreina: You're welcome.
[19:06] <websterlake> intelcore: can you provide more info?
[19:07] <IntelCore> press F8
[19:07] <websterlake> ok
[19:08] <websterlake> intelcore: it opens the identities panel
[19:08] <IntelCore> that is you in Konv.  you also ident to freenode
[19:09] <IntelCore> reg a nick - nickServ
[19:10] <websterlake> intelcore: do  you mean I need to register another nick inside Konversation?
[19:10] <IntelCore> is this nick reg'ed?
[19:10] <websterlake> yes
[19:11] <websterlake> about 15 minutes ago
[19:11] <tomreyn> websterlake: there's no need to run an identd service.
[19:11] <IntelCore> reply mail
[19:12] <nik> Is there a way to automate channel joining in Hexchat (authorize+join)?
[19:12] <tomreyn> nik: you edit the server profile and add the channel to the "autojoin channels" tab.
[19:13] <nik> Thanks. :)
[19:13] <tomreyn> there's also #hexchat btw.
[19:13] <IntelCore> hex asks if u wanna join when it open.  and connects put space between for multi chan
[19:13] <tomreyn> (but its fone to ask here, too)
[19:13] <tomreyn> *fine
[19:14] <tomreyn> websterlake: so if you had any issues connecting to freenode then it wasn't due to identd not responding, but it must have been some other issue.
[19:15] <websterlake> tomreyn: if I am connected here in #ubuntu via the webchat at freenode, would it block me getting in from Konversation at the same time?
[19:16] <tomreyn> websterlake: i don't think so. there is going to be a limit per ip address but most likely it's > 2
[19:18] <websterlake> tomreyn: in Konversation, I'm trying to connect to#ubuntu on irc.freenode.net on 7070 with SSL box checked.
[19:18] <tomreyn> websterlake: port 7070?
[19:18] <tomreyn> that's an unusual port.
[19:18] <IntelCore> if you registered a nick, and server says you are not, it will kill other nick?
[19:19] <websterlake> tomreyn: yes, and I've also tried 6697..  I found those ports on the ubuntu wiki.
[19:19] <psichas> hi guys, can someone explain, how i could insert macro in picture file? :)
[19:19] <websterlake> tomreyn: from here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList
[19:19] <tomreyn> websterlake: apparently 7070 can work, at leats something is listening there. but 6697 would be the common port for tls.
[19:19] <IntelCore> can you register same nick in two clients?
[19:21] <akik> psichas: if this is about hacking, find another channel
[19:21] <tomreyn> websterlake: i agree this wiki page suggests 7070 should work, too. i use port 6697 with TLS ('SSL'),
[19:21] <websterlake> tomreyn: this is the log: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24669792/
[19:21] <nacc> IntelCore: these seem like questions for an #irc channel, not for the ubuntu support channel?
[19:23] <tomreyn> websterlake: "Unknown error." is not very helpful to me either. maybe people in #freenode or (not sure this exists) in #konversation can suggest how to solve this issue.
[19:24] <websterlake> tomreyn: how do I open another tab for #freenode (for instance) in this webclient?
[19:24] <tomreyn> websterlake: type this here (where you normally chat): /join #freenode
[19:25] <tomreyn> / must be the first character on the line
[19:25] <websterlake> tomreyn: many thanks, new to this..  thanks for the help!
[19:25] <tomreyn> welcome, good luck
[19:25] <websterlake> I think I will need it!
[19:26] <hashwagon> I need a reliable filesystem to be shared between ubuntu and windows. This will store important backups. Would you go with FAT32 or NTFS?
[19:26] <akik> hashwagon: ntfs
[19:26] <IntelCore> backups from which one?
[19:26] <hashwagon> Typically backed up from the ubuntu machine
[19:26] <IntelCore> usb
[19:27] <hashwagon> Yeah, onto a USB 3 drive.
[19:27] <IntelCore> win needs external drive
[19:27] <nacc> IntelCore: please work on your communication in the channel. You are not directing your comments at any one, one word comments are not helpful (esp. without question marks) and it makes it very difficult to follow what you are saying
[19:27] <nacc> IntelCore: particularly when helping new people, it's really not obvious what's going on
[19:28] <IntelCore> uh follow a convo
[19:28] <nacc> !who | IntelCore
[19:28] <nacc> IntelCore: conversations are between people, not between you and the channel.
[19:28] <IntelCore> If u dont like I go
[19:29] <hashwagon> I'd prefer it if we were all to be friends ;D
[19:29] <ioria> hashwagon, well, windows cannot read ext fs, so you really don't have much of a choice (ntfs, samba, cifs)
[19:30] <IntelCore> hashwagon - windows backup did not find a drive when I simply wanted to back it to partition
[19:31] <hashwagon> ioria: Okay, thanks. NTFS seems to be a reasonably modern filesystem compared to F32.
[19:31] <IntelCore> both , hashwagon, can back it to usb
[19:31] <ioria> hashwagon,  sure
[19:32] <akik> ioria: you can install ext2fsd or fs-driver in windows, enablind the ext fs
[19:32] <IntelCore> nacc, is that better?
[19:32] <ioria> akik, oh, please, no :þ
[19:32] <nacc> IntelCore: yes, it's clearer what you are saying and to whom, thanks
[19:33] <IntelCore> nacc which usb fs to use?
[19:34] <nacc> IntelCore: I don't know what you mean, or why you're asking me?
[19:34] <Bashing-om> hashwagon: Sorry, away for a spell . lemme catch up .
[19:34] <jj7> Lol, I made it. Now hexchat joins channels automatically. ^^
[19:34] <IntelCore> nacc - what fs is forfmatted on usb for joint backup win + ubuntu ?
[19:35] <nacc> IntelCore: I don't know, I don't use windows. I would assume both vfat and ntfs would work.
[19:35] <ioria> yup
[19:35] <hashwagon> Bashing-om: That's fine. It must be something from my kickstart install. I've never seen this with a default install from the ubuntu16.04 iso.
[19:36] <IntelCore> nacc - win 10 have creator on usb is proprietary.. so I dunno.  I never did it.  I would use creator to format the usb
[19:37] <nacc> IntelCore: I still don't know why you're directing this at me? I have no interest in windows or usb drives in this context and didn't provide any input about the topic.
[19:37] <mahdi_ja> hi all
[19:37] <tomreyn> hi mahdi
[19:37] <hashwagon> IntelCore: you're meaning to mention me in those right? I think I've going to lean towards ntfs for the USB backup.
[19:37] <IntelCore> nacc - I asked, I wondered
[19:38] <mahdi_ja> how i can disable tracker-extract process
[19:38] <mahdi_ja> this process get all time of my system
[19:38] <IntelCore> nacc - I also wanted hashwagon to know, if possible
[19:39] <fiberbaby2> in Windows I get an invisiable character when I type alt+255 how do I type that character in Ubuntu??
[19:39] <tomreyn> mahdi_ja: which ubuntu release is this?
[19:39] <nacc> IntelCore: well, as I said, I don't know. And it's random to ask me.
[19:39] <mahdi_ja> tomreyn, ubuntu 16.04 gnome
[19:41] <tomreyn> mahdi_ja: you can run "tracker-gui" and reconfigure it to (to be less stressing) or you could uninstall it.
[19:41] <bonsairoot> fiberbaby2, for alt codes use ctrl+shift and tap u.... when you see the underlined u you can type in your alt code (255) and enter
[19:41] <Bashing-om> hashwagon: OK, back up2date - mostly - . Booting : server -> what do you expect to boot too ?
[19:41] <nacc> tomreyn: looks to also be a systemd user service, so could be disabled. but i've also not had any problems with tracker here
[19:42] <mahdi_ja> tomreyn, how i can remove it
[19:42] <fiberbaby2> bonsairoot, I'm sorry but I don't understand
[19:43] <mahdi_ja> tomreyn, thank you very much
[19:43] <IntelCore> fiberbaby2 - This character in Unicode is U+00A0
[19:43] <IntelCore> fiberbaby2 - On Ubuntu, type it as Ctrl + Shift + U then 00A0
[19:44] <hashwagon> Bashing-om: Well so far I've tested this only in VM's I'm going to test it on a physical machine as well. I'm wondering if having to Ctrl+Alt+F1 is going to impact the system in any way. I'd be SSHing into it anyway. I didn't see anything that jumped out in journalctl -b so if you or anyone else had suggestions on other logs to check I'd go that route.
[19:44] <fiberbaby2> IntelCore, doesn't work
[19:45] <hashwagon> Bashing-om: but as I said this may be related to a kickstart issue so I'm also searching the web to see if I missed anything
[19:45] <IntelCore> fiberbaby2 - https://askubuntu.com/questions/88347/how-can-i-type-ascii-characters-like-alt-numpad-in-windows
[19:45] <bonsairoot> fiberbaby2, works on my end.... are you seeing the underlined u?
[19:46] <tomreyn> mahdi_ja: disabling the 'tracker' service is maybe preferrable over uninstalling the 'tracker-extract' package
[19:46] <tomreyn> mahdi_ja:i have no first hand experience with it, though, so can't reliably tell which would be the better approach.
[19:48] <Bashing-om> hashwagon: Well, a server by default has no GUI, but still mut have a graphic;s crd and driver . what can you find in the log: ' journalctl -b -0 'shows messages from the current boot ?
[19:48] <tomreyn> mahdi_ja: to remove the package, you would run: sudo apt-get remove tracker-extract
[19:48] <coffeeguy> hi was that update in the mailing list for today for firefox automatic?
[19:49] <IntelCore> i got one yesterday
[19:49] <nacc> coffeeguy: "that" update in "the" mailing list?
[19:49] <mahdi_ja> tomreyn, thank you for your attention , i think uninstalling it is better ,i limit this process with tracker-gui but still eat my cpu time

[19:51] <tomreyn> mahdi_ja: it seems to be a more common issue on older / slower computers. if you don't need background indexing of files and documents so much (but are okay to do it when needed), uninstalling the package should be okay, i would guess.
[19:51] <coffeeguy> oh ok so i'm good togo thanks nacc :)
[19:52] <IntelCore> nacc - is the web browser in Xenial called IceCat?

[19:53] <coffeeguy> not that that is incredibly important
[19:54] <IntelCore> it composite
[19:54] <hashwagon> Bashing-om: amd_nb: Cannot enumerate AMD northbridges
[19:54] <Bashing-om> hashwagon: Yuk . that ^ is out of my range of experience . IRQ interrupts ?? Just not at all sure .
[19:55] <Bashing-om> hashwagon: These while still in the VM ? Guest additions installed ?
[19:56] <jayjo> can I have my deskop ubuntu machine automatically establish a VPN connection to an openvpn server, so if I establish a connection to the vpn server I can access my local network?
[19:56] <xubunter> Hi. I did a S.M.A.R.T test on my hard disk and I getting raw values on 183 Runtime_Bad_Block. I can't find online what that means. Any help?
[19:57] <tomreyn> xubunter: are there no normaloized values available in its output? those raw values can mean all kinds of things, are vendor and even model specific.
[19:58] <xubunter> tomreyn, this is the line: 183 Runtime_Bad_Block       0x0032   100   100   001    Old_age   Always       -       5912
[19:59] <xubunter> I guess since 5912 is over the threshold I need to replace it, right?
[19:59] <tomreyn> xubunter: 183 is just the parameter ID, not the raw value
[20:00] <xubunter> tomreyn, the raw value is 5912
[20:00] <hashwagon> Bashing-om: Yeah, still in the vm environment. No guest additions yet as I haven't needed it in the past with the standard ubuntu install to function.
[20:01] <hashwagon> Bashing-om: I appreciate your concern and reaching out on this. It's a very obscure issue I feel.
[20:03] <tomreyn> xubunter: i tend to use this to make a slightly less useless guess when trying to interpet SMARTCTL attributes and their values https://www.thomas-krenn.com/en/wiki/Analyzing_a_Faulty_Hard_Disk_using_Smartctl
[20:05] <tomreyn> xubunter: i would expect a non-zero value for Runtime_Bad_Block to indicate issues, but i would not rely on it too much unless a long self test actually finds any real issues, or if one of the more commonly discussed attributes indicate that failure is imminent.
[20:05] <bray90820> Maybe someone here can help me every time I try to connect my my bluetooth speaker to 16.10 it connects for a second then disconnects
[20:05] <xubunter> tomreyn, I already read that. I've yet to find any information on what Runtime_Bad_block means
[20:05] <IntelCore> xubunter - might get another.  look:https://wiki.lime-technology.com/Understanding_SMART_Reports
[20:08] <rx> roberto needs help
[20:09] <rx> can someone help him
[20:10] <xubunter> rx, who is Roberto and what does he need help with?
[20:10] <xubunter> IntelCore, get another HDD or (read) another link?
[20:10] <bonsairoot> bray90820, do you see any errors in: journalctl | grep -i bluetooth
[20:11] <tomreyn> xubunter: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T.#Known_ATA_S.M.A.R.T._attributes discusses the meaning and relevance of this attribute
[20:12] <IntelCore> xubunter - reading, it is I do not know model of drive, but age is bad block, immenet is when it fails soon ly, so you might want to
[20:13] <bray90820> bonsairoot: Lots of errors
[20:13] <bray90820> https://pastebin.com/raw/i2gUPxHH
[20:14] <IntelCore> bye bye
[20:14] <xubunter> bye IntelCore . thanks
[20:14] <xubunter> thanks to tomreyn too
[20:15] <tomreyn> xubunter: welcome. and TL;DR: I would not take any decision based on this attributes' value.
[20:17] <xubunter> ok, tomreyn. I think I agree to that
[20:22] <bonsairoot> bray90820, hmm I can't help you sorry. There seems to be a bug about the first part: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1490349
[20:28] <bray90820> bonsairoot: Thanks anyways
[20:28] <bray90820> Anyone else?
[20:34] <jappish> hey guys, I have a rpi B+ that seems to have corrupted my SD card, I'd like to backup some of the files from the SD card but can't seem to access home dir
[20:34] <jappish> not sure if I don't have permissions or if it's corrupt
[20:34] <jappish> most folders/files are accessible
[20:35] <jappish> how can I check what the problem is?
[20:36] <jappish> I ran a check with gparted
[20:36] <jappish> no errors
[20:36] <tomreyn> jappish: use dd_rescue to create an image stored on a different drive, then run fsck on th partition(s) / file system(s) on that image, then mount the file system from that image and access your files.
[20:39] <tomreyn> jappish: sorry, i should have said "gddrescue", not "dd_rescue"
[20:40] <jappish> tomreyn: thnx, I'll see what I can find
[20:42] <tomreyn> jappish: if you have sufficient space, consider creating another copy of the image you created before you modify it with fsck
[20:42] <jappish> tomreyn: thanks, space isn't a problem, so I'll do that
[20:52] <jappish> tomreyn: I'm confused... I did 'sudo apt-get install gddrescue' but I need to use ddrescue in the terminal? right?
[20:52] <tomreyn> jappish: yes that's right, it's for historic reasons.
[20:52] <jappish> ok thanks
[20:53] <tomreyn> there used to be two more packages, named similar, doing slightly different things. it's a lot less confusing now than it used to be, but not yet perfect. ;)
[20:53] <jappish> tomreyn: should I be using any specific flags that you know of?
[20:54] <tomreyn> jappish: you probablky need none. maybe --verbose
[20:57] <Bashing-om> jappish: A quick intro : ' apt show gddrescue ' .
[20:59] <jappish> Bashing-om: thanks, didn't know you could do that =)
[21:00] <tomreyn> jappish: as the package description and it's --help output and mand page says "You *should* use a logfile unless you know what you are doing" - I should have pointed this out, too.
[21:00] <tomreyn> Usage: ddrescue [options] infile outfile [logfile]
[21:01] <jappish> tomreyn: I don't understand the difference between outfile and mapfile
[21:01] <jappish> tomreyn: is mapfile the image-file?
[21:02] <tomreyn> jappish: where do you read about 'mapfile'?
[21:02] <jappish> tomreyn: section 5 https://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/manual/ddrescue_manual.html
[21:04] <jappish> tomreyn: does this look right 'ddrescue -v /dev/mmcblk0p2 /home/jasse/sdbackup.img /home/jasse/mapfile'
[21:04] <tomreyn> jappish: i think this newer manual you pointed to uses 'mapfile' as an alias to 'logfile'.
[21:05] <tomreyn> jappish: yes, this looks fine to me. except you may need to run it with sudo - but it shoudl tell.
[21:08] <jappish> tomreyn: thanks, I think I need to reboot first.. brb
[21:11] <opaalaha> linux dont need reboot. Must of all dont need it
[21:11] <opaalaha> most*
[21:13] <arooni> say i change my default font/zoom size in gnome terminal how do i set what i have as default
[21:16] <opaalaha> copy to /etc/timezone
[21:17] <opaalaha> some brazilian here?
[21:45] <jappish> tomreyn: Ok, so I've backed up without any errors and made a copy of the img-file
[21:45] <jappish> what was I supposed to do after that?
[21:53] <Bashing-om> jappish: " < tomreyn> jappish: use dd_rescue to create an image stored on a different drive, then run fsck on th partition(s) / file system(s) on that image, then mount the file system from that image and access your files."
[21:56] <jappish> Bashing-om: thnx, lost the chat after reboot
[21:57] <jappish> can I run fsck on just the image? or use the whole drive?
[21:57] <GnomeKris> Anyone having hdmi sound issues on 17.04?
[21:57] <jappish> all my USB drives are in use at the moment
[21:58] <Bashing-om> jappish: run the file system check against the partition that contains the image .
[21:59] <jappish> Bashing-om: thnx
[22:00] <Bashing-om> jappish: Must be from a outside source - such that the target partition is NOT mounted .
[22:00] <jappish> Bashing-om: ah... I see, was just about to hit enter =)
[22:00] <secnix> The current version of VLC in 16.04 seems to have a security vulnerability that was fixed in 2.2.6.  Anyone know when this will be updated in the repos?
[22:00] <Bashing-om> jappish:
[22:01] <Bashing-om> jappish: 'mount' to know that the target is not mounted .
[22:02] <jappish> Bashing-om: the image is on my main drive now, will need to free a usb drive first, move the image there and then run fsck I guess
[22:03] <jappish> Bashing-om: any other way?
[22:03] <Bashing-om> jappish: If the image is within your system root partition, then yes ya got to move it .
[22:04] <secnix> I should clarify, the VLC version in the 16.04.2 universe repo is vulnerable to a critical remote code execution exploit that is almost a week old.
[22:04] <secnix> I need to go, but I just wanted to let someone know...
[22:05] <jappish> Bashing-om: I'm running a dual boot with a win10 partition.. can I move it to the ntfs partition and safely run fsck on that partition?
[22:07] <Bashing-om> jappish: No .. as the tool expects a ext file system NOT  Windows. Running on ntfs will be invalid and really mess up the works .
[22:08] <jappish> Bashing-om: hehe, ok, good point.. I'll just free a usb drive tomorrow and go from there, getting late here. Really appreciate the help, thanks!
[22:09] <Bashing-om> jappish: Ya got a means to make up another partition on the system disk ? this " mess about" partition can also come in handy for lots of things .
[22:10] <Jack_Sparrow__> Agreed
[22:11] <banyantree> does somebody tried yubikey on luks?
[22:12] <jappish> Bashing-om: That's a great idea but I'm running my ethereum wallet on this partition and it's only 30GB.. the chaindata eats up all the space.. I'll see if I can resize a bit more, not really using win for much
[22:16] <banyantree> actually i'd like to avoid passwords without security loss
[22:31] <ramadamadingdong> hello i keep getting https://hastebin.com/azigekotej.rb when itry to do anything with apt
[22:32] <kostkon> ramadamadingdong, clear your cache, i.e.  sudo apt-get clean and then run sudo apt-get update, then try again
[22:33] <ramadamadingdong> Kobaz: proceeding as advised
[22:33] <ramadamadingdong> Kobaz: still this error:
[22:34] <ramadamadingdong> https://thepasteb.in/p/zmh8V4KymEzTZ
[22:34] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: i think you are cutting off some output, perhaps
[22:34] <Bashing-om> !info kde-config-telepathy-accounts xenial
[22:34] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: can you paste the exact command you are running and the full output?
[22:34] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: *pastebin
[22:34] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: um, i have never seen that error (and you don't need sudo if you are already root)
[22:35] <ramadamadingdong> nacc: it was happening with any command. i was really trying to run sudo apt -f instal, let me grab full output
[22:35] <ramadamadingdong> nacc: lol i always do that by mistake :P
[22:35] <kostkon> ramadamadingdong, yeah, ran them again without sudo
[22:35] <kostkon> run*
[22:35] <ramadamadingdong> https://thepasteb.in/p/DRhjG3XzZB6ty
[22:36] <ramadamadingdong> kiwiirc's pastebin mod is cool :)
[22:37] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: the error message is line 20
[22:37] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: err, line 21
[22:37] <ramadamadingdong> ok, what would the solution be?
[22:38] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: well, in 17.04, the kde-config-telepathy-accounts file is instead in /usr/share/accounts/services/kde/google-im.service
[22:39] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: let me see when that changed
[22:39] <ramadamadingdong> nacc i am on 16.04 xenial xerus
[22:39] <kostkon> ramadamadingdong, both packages are from the repos it seems, and there's a conflict
[22:39] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: i know.
[22:39] <ramadamadingdong> oh ok
[22:40] <ramadamadingdong> my laptop is running 17.04 :)
[22:40] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: LP: #1451728
[22:40] <Bashing-om> ramadamadingdong: A conflict . remove one or the other kde-config-telepathy-accounts, or the google one .
[22:40] <kostkon> 2 year old bug, nice
[22:41] <ramadamadingdong> i cant realy remove anything
[22:41] <ramadamadingdong> unless i use dpkg -r --force-all
[22:42] <ramadamadingdong> I'm not really sure which one to remove
[22:42] <ramadamadingdong> of any actually, not sure what to do at all, the launchpad thing is confusing
[22:43] <ramadamadingdong> bashing-om: what am i supposed to run?
[22:44] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: i'll see if i can spend some time on that one next week
[22:44] <kostkon> ramadamadingdong, see if you can easily remove account-plugin-google, it's not that important in the grant scheme of things, hopefully it won't attempt to take other packages down with it
[22:44] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: the thing is, you usually only need one or the other
[22:44] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: are you intentinoally using both unity and kde?
[22:44] <ramadamadingdong> kostkon:  what, dpkg -r --force-all account-plugin-google
[22:44] <ramadamadingdong> ?
[22:45] <kostkon> ramadamadingdong, then proceed to install the other package, then try to reinstall account-plugin-google, if it works fine, if not who cares?
[22:45] <ramadamadingdong> ok
[22:45] <nacc> well, i mean you simply *can't* install these two packages together on xenial
[22:46] <nacc> it will always fail without using a dpkg flag to ignore the clash of files
[22:46] <ramadamadingdong> still screwing up
[22:46] <nacc> but then they have different contents, so if you do it wrong, there will be problems
[22:46] <ramadamadingdong> https://thepasteb.in/p/76hE7ZL8JxWtV
[22:46] <kostkon> nacc, realy a confusing mess :/
[22:46] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: actually read the output
[22:46] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: it didn't do what you asked because it can't
[22:47] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: or you have manually specified to install it?
[22:47] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: you remove it with dpkg, but didn't tell apt to remove it, i expect
[22:48] <nacc> kostkon: yeah, and the bug is full of spam and users complaining (which is all good and well, but it degenerates quickly from 'me too!' responses to 'developers suck' responses)
[22:48] <ramadamadingdong> ok:
[22:48] <ramadamadingdong> https://thepasteb.in/p/r0hwJ2X0poxuK
[22:49] <ramadamadingdong> https://thepasteb.in/p/LghN8Q5RY8MfZ
[22:50] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: you've purged a pcakge that is *needed* by unity -- but you want to keep unity?
[22:50] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: i asked rather clearly, earlier, do you want kde or unity?
[22:50] <ramadamadingdong> im ON gnome 3 at the moment
[22:50] <kostkon> nacc, yeah, and that spam makes things much more worse for the devs, bug's still there
[22:50] <ramadamadingdong> ill just go ahead and nuke both unity and kde and reinstall one or the other or neither later
[22:50] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: right, so you can remove the revdep (unity-scope-gdrive)
[22:50] <ramadamadingdong> ok
[22:50] <nacc> kostkon: yeah :/
[22:51] <ramadamadingdong> root@server:~# sudo dpkg --force-all --purge revdep
[22:51] <ramadamadingdong> dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove revdep which isn't installed
[22:51] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: sorry 'revdep' is a term for reverse-dependency
[22:52] <ramadamadingdong> oh you meant unity-scope-gdrive
[22:52] <ramadamadingdong> sorry :P
[22:52] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: right :)
[22:52] <ramadamadingdong> k just removed it
[22:52] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: does `apt-get -f install` work now?
[22:52] <ramadamadingdong> its working on it
[22:53] <ramadamadingdong> btw its ok if i use apt -f install right?
[22:53] <ramadamadingdong> i like the graphical status bar apt gives you :P
[22:53] <nacc> ramadamadingdong: yeah
[22:53] <ramadamadingdong> :)
[22:54] <edgy1> sorry i had forgotten to ghost my edgy1 nick lol
[22:59] <Bashing-om> edgy1: Keep on mind there are all those (677 and 27 not upgraded) to deal with . apt -f might be pre-mature here !
[22:59] <edgy1> ok, what should i run now (the apt-f install completed succesfully)?
[23:00] <Bashing-om> edgy1: were me .. i would run ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade ' see then what there is to do .
[23:00] <edgy1> ok
[23:01] <jushur> edgy1: you know if you set up sasl auth for your irc client, you can autoghost your previous connection/nick.
[23:01] <edgy1> jushur: i dont use irc enough to care
[23:02] <jushur> edgy1: i see.
[23:02] <Aprexer> What is scope
[23:02] <Aprexer> and how do i go back to normal
[23:03] <edgy1> Aprexer: hit alt and f4 simultaneously
[23:03] <Aprexer> Not doing anything
[23:07] <Aprexer> For some reason my laptop is stuck in it
[23:07] <edgy1> bashing-om: I proceeded as advised, what should i run next?
[23:07] <Aprexer> I don't even know why its even in scope
[23:07] <Aprexer> I haven't done anything
[23:08] <Aprexer> And you've got to like move the cursor to the far left to even see the menu
[23:08] <Bashing-om> edgy1: Completed no errors ? .. now what shows ' sudo apt -f install ; sudo dpkg -C ' ?
[23:09] <edgy1> https://thepasteb.in/p/0ghJPmlEkQqF5
[23:10] <Bashing-om> edgy1: Looks golden to me :)
[23:10] <artful> good :)
[23:10] <artful> nice, no one took Artful yet, the name of future ubuntu release 17.10 :D
[23:10] <jushur> Aprexer: try F11 or ESC
[23:11] <Aprexer> jushur its still like it
[23:11] <Aprexer> My wife hasn't done anything to it.
[23:11] <artful> Aprexer run in terminal sudo shutdown -t 0
[23:11] <artful> :P
[23:14] <Aprexer> I login and it goes to a black screen for like 10 secounds and then starts loading screen and says scopes
[23:14] <Aprexer> and goes back to the same state again where i started
[23:14] <Aprexer> And it calls these things apps...
[23:17] <kostkon> Aprexer, are you logging in unity 8 perhaps? on the login screen click on the gear icon next to your name and select unity7 from the list
[23:18] <Aprexer> gheez thanks never even knew that was a thing
[23:18] <Aprexer> she must of clicked on it by mistake
[23:18] <Aprexer> I don't even know unity 8 myself, never even heard of it.
[23:20] <jushur> Aprexer: i did some www searching and found https://askubuntu.com/questions/362549/how-to-disable-all-scopes-filters-and-dash-plugins
[23:20] <medix> anyone know if the package maintainers for vlc are aware of the security patch?  the update isn't in the universe repos for 16.04.2
[23:23] <jushur> medix: make a bugreport againt it, and se if they respond.
[23:24] <kostkon> medix, cve id?
[23:24] <medix> jushur: where should i file the report?  i'm a bit confused which maintiners to contact about it.
[23:25] <medix> kostkon: CPAI-2017-0433
[23:25] <jushur> u do it against the package for your distro version basicly
[23:27] <medix> kostkon: doesn't look like it was given a CVE for some reason.
[23:28] <medix> jushur: ok thanks, will do!  i assume here? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bugs
[23:30] <medix> kostkon: sorry, i found it: CVE-2017-8312
[23:34] <kostkon> medix, well here's its status in Ubuntu https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2017/CVE-2017-8312.html
[23:40] <medix> kostkon: thanks!  so i guess they're already aware of it, so i probably don't need to report it.
[23:40] <kostkon> medix, there's probably a bug report somewhere on lp or there's going to be one
[23:41] <kostkon> medix, or maybe there's one but it's not public
[23:46] <wiggmpk> Anyone have experience with the Xbox One S (bluetooth) Controllers in 16.04?
[23:53] <psychoticwarrior> when there is a burning in your heart
[23:55] <unholymachine> sorry, i missed a message that was posted to me. Unfortunately it was erased by the scroll.
[23:55] <unholymachine> whoever it was, if you're still here, please re-send
[23:56] <YankDownUnder> unholymachine, The message was: Ubuntu is now free. We are sending you the refund. ;)
[23:57] <chris_> hey
[23:57] <unholymachine> heh. ok .
[23:57] <chris_> where is the wubi download page? i cant find it
[23:57] <YankDownUnder> "wubi" has been retired, matey.
[23:57] <chris_> :( why
[23:58] <YankDownUnder> Lack of development - and other tools did a better job. Look at "Rufus"...or "Unetbootin"...great tools...
[23:58] <chris_> thanks
[23:59] <YankDownUnder> chris_, "Unetbootin" allows for persistence in the creation of a liveUSB...just to let ya know...
[23:59] <unholymachine> the BEST one out there is called MultiSystem
[23:59] <unholymachine> imo.
[23:59] <YankDownUnder> unholymachine, Fair enough...we all have our fave tools...
[23:59] <unholymachine> http://liveusb.info/dotclear/
[23:59] <chris_> is there any program that lets you install ubuntu and doesnt deal with partitions at all?
[23:59] <unholymachine> indeed
