[00:02] is there a way toM? re install PA [00:02] rt, PAM? [00:04] Hiya [00:31] not sure how to word it, it seems the response time in firefox for mouse and keyboard events is declining slowly. Some stuff works just fine but typing in the firefox search box or form fields may be supper slow all of a sudden. Pausing html5 videos is the worse part, it registers the click but can easily take 10 seconds. [00:32] Hi! I'm having no luck in having ufw start on boot using Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS. ufw works but I have to start it manually after every reboot. Can someone help me troubleshoot this please? [00:32] clicking the skip this add button on youtube takes longer than the add [00:33] yea i have the same problem sometimes. youtube can be a bitch [00:34] I wrote an infinite scroll javascript a few years ago, at first I had it insert 1 line when a scroll event triggered [00:34] gde33: as someone patiently pointed out to me, the first thing to try is a different browser. [00:35] Loshki: to see if the problem is there also? [00:35] gde33: exactly. [00:36] chrome has this anoying keyring popup [00:36] I just broke my installation. The system was installing updates & was hard reset in the process.... [00:37] Now it starts in "emergency mode" & I can't get networking to work. [00:37] grub-install [00:37] update-grub [00:37] update-initramfs -u [00:37] chrome has this anoying keyring popup that I have to cancle 8 times [00:37] if you cant boot [00:38] Antumd === captain_fixerpc1 is now known as CaptainFixerpc14 [00:38] on chrome yt respondes instantly [00:39] on mozilla irc the response is usually to install the version from the website rather than using the one that comes with ubuntu. [00:40] Hello, running Ubuntu Gnome 16.04, my second monitor is above my primary, and full screen programs open on the secondary.... how can I change that? [00:40] Okay psychoticwarrior, I've already tried "grub-install", but I will try the others. [00:41] AntumD: Can you boot to grub's boot menu -> recovery kernel -> enable networking ? [00:41] Actually psychoticwarrior, I think I've done all of that. [00:41] ok [00:41] yea thats true [00:42] AntumD you cant get networking too work [00:42] ? [00:42] Yes Bashing-om, I can boot into recovery. But I can't start networking. [00:42] for some reason all of a sudden im getting on error about saving information on a certain folder..how can i change the permissions back to where it should be to be able to download and save [00:43] AntumD: from the enable networking option in the recovery menu ? [00:43] * bitch hugs psychoticwarrior [00:44] Not sure if it's important, but I am using Ubuntu-derived (yakkety) Linux Mint. [00:44] AntumD: which isn't supported here [00:44] I'm booting into recovery now, I'll check messages. [00:44] AntumD: Then ya need to talk with the mint folks ; [00:44] !mint | AntumD [00:44] AntumD: The Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle) [00:46] *bitch did you get it to work [00:46] psychoticwarrior: that is inappropriate for this channel [00:46] You mean, you would have helped me had I not said I was on Linux Mint :'(. Okay, I'll go over to Mint channel. [00:47] my bad thats his nick [00:47] * bitch waves to nacc [00:47] psychoticwarrior: ah i see, sorry [00:48] how you reset persmissions back to defult in #ubuntu folder [00:48] AntumD: Not true . We would offer help of you were booting 'buntu . Many things different in mint we are not aware of . [00:48] luis30: you cannot generally 'reset' permissions -- there is no default value [00:49] luis30: also what is "#ubuntu folder"? [00:49] download...okay then what is the settings for a fresh install [00:49] settings for what luis30. Each directory is going to have different ones [00:50] kenrin, when you first create a folder or if its already created the first settins [00:50] luis30: depends on the umask [00:50] That would depend on the users umask [00:50] luis30: your question has no meaning in Linux, on its own [00:50] luis30, for the "Downloads" folder the permissions is probably drwxr-xr-x [00:51] how do i set that to that [00:51] If you open a terminal and write "ls -l" you can see it [00:51] what is the terminal command to define that for a folder... [00:51] go to files and then locate the folder and right click then properties [00:52] should be chmod but I can't remember what numbers to use... [00:52] anyone know the chmod command [00:52] ya it is chmod [00:52] 1 = x, 2 = w, 4 = r [00:52] chmod 755 <> [00:53] cmmod 755 Downloads ? [00:53] chmod [00:53] idk maybe i cant really remember [00:53] Should be that [00:54] You don't typically want to give execute on files. 644 is what I would consider "default" for those. [00:55] its still not wanting to save [00:55] su - [00:55] log into root [00:55] luis30: ok, so rather than asking any of these things, tell us the actual problem [00:55] how do i chnage the permissions of a folder called Downloads [00:55] luis30, what is the output of "ls -l" ? [00:55] psychoticwarrior: we don't recommend being root generally, in ubuntu [00:55] yea i agree [00:55] psychoticwarrior: careful sudo usage is appropriate [00:55] it may help thoighh [00:55] i want to download something in a folder called download it saying i dont have permission [00:55] true [00:55] i use sudo [00:55] all of a sudden for no reason it changed [00:56] did u get it to work [00:56] no [00:56] no one here knows how to change the permissions of a folder download to be able to save? [00:56] luis30: Langley's question still stands -- and/or show us in a pastebin the command you ran and the output [00:57] luis30: we all do, but that's not what you're actually hitting, most likely [00:57] Try using the full path to the folder [00:57] luis30: and setting folders to world writable so that you can download to them is wrong [00:57] ex. /home/luis30/Downloads [00:58] luis30: and 'download' and 'Downloads' are totally different directories [00:58] luis30: finally, what is 'it'? a browser? the terminal? [00:58] luis30: " sysop@x1604:~$ ls -ld Downloads >> sysop@x1604:~$ ls -ld Downloads [00:58] drwxr-xr-x 2 sysop sysop 4096 Apr 29 12:06 Downloads [00:59] drwxr-xr-x 62 root root [01:00] There's the problem, root is owning the folder [01:00] how i change that ...not even sure how it switched [01:00] Change it with "chown luis30:luis30 Downloads" [01:00] or whatever your user is called [01:00] k [01:00] luis30: you probably ran something (e.g., nautilus) as root or with gksudo or something [01:01] luis30: permissions don't randomly change [01:03] back [01:03] looks its working now...maybe it was bleackbit that did it [01:04] like [01:06] luis30: See: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for the likely reason . === coffeeguy is now known as `8core [01:33] hello. please help me to solve these errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24732313/ [01:55] Hello. I have a mobile broadband card in my laptop, and even if it's set to disabled, ubuntu keeps nagging me to input the pin for it. Is there a way to stop this from happening? [01:55] Without disabling it in the uefi, that is. I like having the option available to me without restarting [01:58] Could probably just rfkill block it on boot [02:01] pseudopad - does ubuntu want the device - on or off line? [02:03] psuedopad - when i click on connections, i can edit them [02:04] so it is disabled in connections? psuedopad? [02:05] !tab [02:05] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [02:06] pseudopad, ?? [02:07] ok.. next [02:24] hexchat started crashing over and over again [02:24] yes, mobile broadband is disabled [02:24] in the network settings [02:26] pseudopad, ah, ok.. so ubuntu see it [02:26] pseudopad, u might give it pin then disable [02:26] disable pin? i don't really want that [02:27] pseudopad, u have a wifi? did u selcet it? [02:27] i have wifi, i also have mobile broadband [02:27] the first is on, the second is off [02:28] well if you want to disable an internal card..device [02:28] but ubuntu still prompts me for pin, both at the login prompt before i even log in, and then again after i log in [02:28] and after resuming from sleep [02:28] pseudopad, u have a cablendem? [02:28] cable modem? no, i have fios. [02:28] ah, pseudopad , then it not keeping that [02:30] pa u deleted the mobile in system config? [02:30] No, i want to have it available when i leave my house [02:30] i want it disabled, not removed [02:30] yes [02:30] we faked the moon landings [02:30] and the name of the airforce base where it was filmed/faked is in the movie "sneakers" [02:30] avatard, not topical here [02:30] well the card may want a pin on boot, or after suspend [02:31] also, eye-tracking is now in all theatres in the USA [02:31] avatard, take the chatter elsewhere [02:31] and tinfoil is a red-herring. mind control is audible, not electromagnetic [02:31] Yes, but does that mean ubuntu is forced to activate it every time? [02:31] pseudopad, giving an isp pin [02:32] hello, i am trying to configure a google drive folder. I can access the folder from nautilus, but i don't have permission to write [02:32] i even have tried this: sudo chmod 777 /run/user/1000/gvfs/google-drive:host=gmail.com,user=siviaf.into [02:33] but it's says that i don't have permission, even with the sudo command [02:35] i'm sort of trying to determine if this is a bug in the mobile network manager, or if there is a way to turn it off [02:35] i feel like asking for the pin on a turned off device is kinda weird [02:36] pseudopad, if return from suspend it might be normal [02:37] pseudopad, is win on this pc? [02:37] what about popping up before a user is even logged in? [02:37] this is a laptop with ubuntu only [02:38] Did you read the bug report pseudopad ? [02:38] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/704123 [02:38] Launchpad bug 704123 in network-manager (Ubuntu) "Network Manager asks for the PIN even if it is memorized" [Medium,Triaged] [02:38] i looked for one, but i didn't find any entries for this exact issue [02:38] maybe i didn't look hard enough [02:38] Looks like it has been open more than five years and devs will not fix. You could try the workaround in the comments [02:39] this looks like it could be a related bug, but not exactly the same as mine === r0Oter is now known as r00ter [02:40] Sounds the same, pin keeps popping up for no reason [02:40] mine is that the pin prompt pops up all the time,e ven if the device is supposed to be disabled [02:40] yeah it seems like it could come from the same underlying issue [02:41] thanks for finding that for me [02:41] pseudopad, https://askubuntu.com/questions/137815/how-to-enable-disable-mobile-broadband-from-terminal [02:41] this a script to see [02:42] also, when i go to a folder inside the drive i can't see it's name. Just random numbers and letters [02:42] i used to have mint on this laptop. i can't remember if i had the same issue there [02:42] i could reinstall and check i guess [02:42] pseudopad, update network manager [02:42] it had a very similar mobile broadband manager [02:42] with make me think that the app don't have any permission on this folder. If i open the folder propriets it's says that the permission can't be determined [02:43] on goog drive? [02:43] IntelCore yep [02:43] update network manager to what? [02:45] i am using the gnome config solution, so it's have a google drive folder in the same way that i have a network folder (but i don't have sure if it's uses samba) [02:45] If you share Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, or Forms, you can control whether they can edit, comment on, or only view the file. [02:45] team must be set for write [02:45] hum... let me see [02:46] your goog drive? [02:48] IntelCore, the folder is the owner folder [02:48] here is the location: siviaf.into@gmail.com [02:49] but when i look the permissions it's says that it can't be determinated [02:50] hi, so as of late everytime i try to boot into ubuntu, i'm suck on /dev/sdb3 clean... blahblah, forced to go to ttyX window and fsck the main os partition, reboot to boot into OS [02:51] just now, i was forced into emergency mode? having to use the same workaround to boot into the OS [02:51] draxdeveloper, it you as owner? [02:51] I'm running Ubuntu 17.04 from USB 3.0 on my mac air.... [02:51] yep, i configured ubuntu to this [02:52] draxdeveloper, but you set perm on goog [02:52] IntelCore, i don't get it. The folder is the onwer folder [02:52] goog drive share [02:53] drip drop drip drop [02:53] so, like i said it's connect with the onwer using gnome config online accounts [02:53] IntelCore, please use complete sentences here [02:53] i dont think it your file permission, but googl drive settin [02:53] psychoticwarrior, no nonsense, we have asked you many times to keep the silliness out of here [02:53] IntelCore, it's the onwer, it's have all permissions [02:54] drippy droppy [02:54] my bad [02:54] psychoticwarrior: damn you here everyday? [02:54] but it's a shared folder anyway [02:55] draxdeveloper, just trying to help, it's not u. [02:55] IntelCore, i know. But like i said i can't change anything else in my google drive [02:56] draxdeveloper, and you set file permission for write [02:56] yep, it's shared with permission for write [02:56] draxdeveloper, and goog drive setting you allow to edit [02:56] but where is this setting? [02:57] on ggole [02:57] I could not modify a doc, I found that I was not on the team [02:58] when the person told me to edit the file [02:58] IntelCore, but it's like i said. I am the owner. I don't need permission to my folder. [02:58] I could not [02:58] (and it's listed anyway, as onwer) [02:59] hmm can't be determined [02:59] yes, that is the weird part, even the root can change this [03:00] hum... maybe this method (using gnome config) it's just in the file manager [03:01] in other words, anything besids this will not have any permission [03:01] draxdeveloper, docs & sheets require an app from google to edit files [03:01] i am not using a doc from google [03:01] k [03:02] but it's seems that even the terminal don't have access to this [03:02] so i think that the gnome config is giving access just to the nautilus [03:03] http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/08/use-google-drive-ubuntu-16-04-linux-desktops [03:03] i will try to create this folder using command line, maybe this will give permission to other applications. I think what happens is that others apps are not connect to the folder (sae thig that can happen with a network folder) [03:03] IntelCore, ty [03:04] install the GNOME Control Center and the GNOME Online Accounts packages [03:05] draxdeveloper, what desktop now? [03:06] IntelCore, i don't uderstand your question. [03:06] ist it gnome, mint? [03:06] unity? [03:07] unity [03:07] is there silent install commands in linux like in windows...for installing a program with no user intereaction [03:07] k, hmm.. gnome 3.18 [03:09] draxdeveloper, after install, you will get a gnome - auth logon panel button top near where ener password, click it to choose [03:09] IntelCore, but there is no risk of creating conflits? [03:10] unity and gnome work [03:10] im trying to install OBS and it just says "fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/kirillshkrogalev/ffmpeg-next/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found" [03:10] luis30: i think at some point there needs to be some interaction, what are you looking to do? [03:10] draxdeveloper, it will change your desktop environment, but features still there [03:11] and then it just stops [03:11] inmport on a virtualbox program [03:11] IntelCore, so i will have to use gnome to work in the drive? [03:13] luis30: import a vm into virtualbox? [03:14] -silent a valid command [03:14] ? [03:15] luis30: there is a vbox channel on freenode i think they may know better than i, sorry i couldn't be of further help [03:15] im asking for general silent install commands [03:15] linux [03:15] windows has them does linux have them? [03:15] draxdeveloper, it is cas of drive and unity [03:16] draxdeveloper, webupd8.org/2016/03/use-gnome-318-google-drive-integration.html [03:16] IntelCore, ok [03:16] that should fix draxdeveloper [03:17] luis30: i found something on google https://askubuntu.com/questions/448358/automating-apt-get-install-with-assume-yes [03:17] help [03:17] ty [03:17] Speed_: jsut ask and wait for a reply [03:17] *just [03:18] thanks aeon-ltd [03:18] I've been looking, and I can't find anything that tells me how to fix the DNS lookup issue in 17.04 I can't find local network names at all, even though in the GUI it shows my router as the first place. /etc/resolv.conf shows 127.0.0.53 for the nameserver [03:19] I don't want to have to manually edit /etc/resolv.conf all the time and deal with other changes when I'm elsewhere [03:19] im having troubble installing OBS [03:20] That's a bit vague [03:21] Speed_: open broadcaster software? [03:22] There are several walkthroughs that are pretty simple seeming from googling obs ubuntu [03:22] what problem are you having? [03:22] yes [03:22] https://hastebin.com/ahojubicec.sql [03:23] this is the output of the install [03:24] But seriously, what the hell is going on with /etc/resolv.conf?!? [03:28] genio: 127.0.0.53 is the systemd-resolved stub resolver. It is not an indication of what non-local dns server you're using. [03:29] it's broken [03:29] no local name resolution can happen this way. [03:30] how do I fix the systemd-resolved stub resolver? [03:32] When DHCP requests are made here, the router should be the current nameserver. it shows it as such when I look at network settings in the gui settings area. yet, in the command line, nothing is reachable unless I _manually_ add nameserver my_routers_ip [03:32] then, obviously, that's broken if I happen to move to another network or restart the machine for any reason [03:33] so, how do I fix the broken behavior? [03:34] genio: You're adding "nameserver ..." to /etc/resolv.conf ? [03:35] in order to get local lookups to actually work. yes [03:35] which is not the appropriate answer [03:36] hi [03:36] im new in this chat [03:36] genio: Please pastebin the output of "nmcli connection show --active". [03:37] that just gives my wireless sid and device [03:37] Ojitos: You have found ubuntu support :) [03:39] :O [03:39] excelent [03:39] genio: Which tells me the network name so that you can then pastebin the output of "nmcli connection show NETWORK_NAME_HERE". [03:40] im tryied some time the gnome cube efects but never runs [03:40] i have the latest version of ubuntu === andyhuzhill1 is now known as andyhuzhill [03:49] IP4.DNS[1]: is correct, yet ipv4.dns: is blank [04:04] Ojitos, Assuming you've activated the desktop effects...? [04:07] i dont know how to do that [04:08] also i have diffrent graphic surround for example im using now cinnamon [04:09] Ojitos, Fair enough. I gave up on Cinnamon - have to get into the Cinnamon forums/channels for assistance on that. [04:10] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1624320 *UGH* [04:10] Launchpad bug 1624320 in systemd (Ubuntu) "systemd-resolved appends 127.0.0.53 to resolv.conf alongside existing entries" [Low,Confirmed] [04:10] * genio hates [04:12] YankDownUnder: so i need to activate the desktop efects from gnome ? [04:16] Ojitos, If you're running the Cinnamon desktop, you'll have to dig into that. If you're using the Gnome-shell/Gnome 3.22 desktop, you're going to have to read-up on how compiz integrates with Gnome 3.22, matey...but it's compiz that is the "engine" that accomplishes all the "cube" and other desktop effects... [04:18] let me check if i can run the effects in cinnamon desktop [04:20] Ojitos, For me, I ended up having "issues" with effects in Cinnamon. FOR ME. Others might not...but it didn't suit my requirements and I just ditched it. (Lack of maturity in the project code + support, etc.) [04:33] i will check [04:33] i got to go to sleep [04:33] have a great night [04:35] hi, I made record in /etc/fstab and it crashed Ubuntu [04:36] is there any way I can edit this file or repair? [04:38] Kexoni: Using a Live medium for this would be one way. [04:40] I have a dell inspiron 15-7559 and looking to install ubuntu on it. I see people are having a lot of issues with the new versions of ubuntu [04:41] I found this though... thoughts? https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201508-19027/ [04:42] but when i look on dell's website, I dont see any pre installed os download options for ubuntu [04:42] Questions to ask oneself prior to installation: * Is my graphics card supported well? * Are my devices supported well? * Is my wifi/network card supported well? * Should I install an LTS version or an interim version? [04:44] Test the machine with an LTS liveUSB - make sure everything works. If so, then move towards installation. If you're game - and don't mind headaches and troubleshooting, you can always try the "latest and greatest" - LTS, however, is probably the best option... [04:44] YankDownUnder: thanks, but should i look for the os download from dell? cant seem to find it [04:45] did find this too: https://connorkuehl.github.io/dell-inspiron-7559-linux-guide/index.html [04:45] wyseguy, Since Dell fired me for cannibalising my co-workers, I can't rightly say... ;) [04:47] seems like an unlikely reason to be fired, you should go on strike [04:48] wyseguy, They did tell me to "enjoy" my co-workers...heheheheh....JOKING...meanwhile, if there isn't an "official" Dell ISO, again, you can always give it a shot with like the 16.0.4.2 LTS liveUSB to see if all yer bits and bobs work...ya know...graphics, network/wifi, internal hardward...side mirrors...transmission...brakes... [04:49] YankDownUnder: ya, i hear ya, i just figured dell would have an iso as it says pre-installed by manufacturer [04:50] Hey guys, is it possible to run a script (Python in this case) that requires user input on run but then push it back to another shell? [04:50] wyseguy, In all actuality, they probably DO - but they either bury it somewhere on the site far from public eyes, or make it only available to OEM's... [04:50] I have tried "& python script.py" and "(python script.py &)" [04:51] Second one actually runs the script but obv doesn't allow for user input. [04:51] Someone did suggest nohup but unsure about that. [04:51] !python | Intee [04:51] Intee: python is a popular Object Oriented scripting language included in Ubuntu. For more on Python please see http://www.python.org/ or #python [04:52] Would this be a python question though? :\ [04:52] Wouldn't the same thing happen if I tried doing it with a .sh that require used input? [04:52] YankDownUnder: wonder if there is some easier way to find it from them [04:53] Intee: im just widening your options mate, cant harm to try the #python channel aswell [04:53] Roger that :) [04:53] Thanks lotuspsychje :) [04:53] ..Or in #bash [04:53] Yeah, going to try bash next :P [04:53] Intee: tmux [04:53] Someone said nohup or tmux yeah :P [04:54] wyseguy: Why not just get it directly from https://www.ubuntu.com/download ? [04:58] wyseguy, Is it safe to assume that you've very nicely crafted an email to the Dell support folks asking?

Direct expierence [05:41] jhijkl: test [05:42] Mr_Pan: thats dangerous to generalize, every machine is different [05:42] I'm on another channel and can't send anything [05:42] Was just checking to see it wasn't universal [05:42] hello, I have kubuntu-desktop on ubuntu 17.04, how do I switch between display managers [05:43] lotuspsychje: ok... i User Linux in 3 differenti thinkpad Model ...

[05:46] its for IT use, but i like snappy-ness [05:46] EriC^^: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm is not working [05:46] wyseguy: perhaps use the #ubuntu-discuss channel for that [05:46] T440/450 [05:46] pravin: what's it saying? [05:48] Mr_Pan: what are your few reasons for those models? just curious [05:48] EriC^^: https://pastebin.com/FhDKVWsH [05:49] Mr_Pan: also, neither are full hd.. 1920/1080 [05:55] hey ladies and gentlemen [05:59] https://github.com/jp9000/obs-studio/wiki/Install-Instructions#linux-build-directions [05:59] i tried following these instructions [05:59] and i dont know how to run it [06:00] idk if i installed it correctly [06:00] because i dont see it [06:01] is there a way i can list all installed packages and see if its there?

[06:09] i guess [06:09] there was a selection option at the time of installation [06:09] @kenrin 404 [06:10] I thought it could be changed later so I didn't check [06:10] pravin: sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm or sudo dpkg-reconfigure sddm [06:12] akik: I tried now, but selecting either is not taking me to kdm [06:12] I have a question. [06:12] !ask | Zombie [06:12] Zombie: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [06:14] akik: Is there any way to do the selection at the login screen [06:14] I have an internal organization level CA. I need to have that CA Trusted by FireFox, Thunderbird, OwnCloud client and Pidgin.

When I try to type into certain input boxes/fields, it doesn't work. Can anyone help/has anyone had this problem before? [08:04] e.g when I try to search for a file in nautilus, it will only let me search for 1 letter. If I type another letter, it'll replace the first letter [08:04] The problem seems to behave different in each application [08:05] I'm using version 16.04 [08:14] tamj0rd2, Something to try - disable bluetooth, reboot, try again. [08:35] hello, sorry for the question, but is anyone managed to Install Powershell on Ubuntu17.04? I see no package for this version, only the "run" file, but not install. [08:35] I need it for Azure [08:45] MaximB: the deb is at https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell [08:45] MaximB: there's no 17.04 version but the older version probably works, try it [08:47] akik: yes i know, but the old versions don't work. they compalin about missing package libicu55 which is not even in 7.04 repos [08:47] MaximB: did you run "sudo apt-get -f install" after installing it? [08:47] MaximB: oh i see [08:48] i can try ingoring the deps, but not sure it's best practice [08:48] !info libicu55 zesty [08:48] Package libicu55 does not exist in zesty [08:48] yes i know :( [08:48] but is there anything that replaces it? [08:49] MaximB: askubuntu says that there's an appimage for powershell [08:50] https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/docs/installation/linux.md#linux-appimage [08:50] yes i know that too, but it's not an instalation. it's a "run" file [08:50] and I need to install addidional packages from powershell [08:50] MaximB: you can't use it? [08:50] well damn :( [08:50] it runs ok, but it won't install any modules [08:51] powershit [08:51] !info libicu zesty [08:51] Package libicu does not exist in zesty [08:51] :( [08:51] !info libicu57 zesty [08:51] libicu57 (source: icu): International Components for Unicode. In component main, is standard. Version 57.1-5ubuntu0.1 (zesty), package size 7650 kB, installed size 30192 kB [08:51] maybe that? [08:52] thanks, I'll try [08:52] but the dependency won't be fulfilled, i don't know [08:54] hi all [08:54] need some help :) [08:55] is some alive? [08:56] Ask the question. [09:00] have some problem, after an update nvidia drivers bricsCAD stops opening, I see the program starting screen but after I chose open a file or just new, bricsCAD crashes... i belive its after nvidia update because yesterday every thing works perfectly [09:02] rizhas, Isn't there a configuration change that needs to happen with BricsCAD in order to work properly with the system graphics driver? I seem to recall that this was an issue on OS/X after an update...so I'm assuming it would be the same for linux... [09:03] so what can i do to run BricsCAD ? [09:03] Firstly, read exactly what I wrote. [09:05] rizhas, Secondly read this: https://forum.bricsys.com/discussion/25166/ubuntu-update-breaks-bricscad-licensing [09:08] thnks [09:08] will try [09:13] Hi I have set up to allow FTP in my UFW but when i try to connect with filezilla it wont let me? Any tips appreciated [09:14] BRB [09:15] ubuntulove, port 21 [09:18] is there a way to increase history in the main ubuntu shell the one you get on ubuntu servers for example where you use alt + page up to scroll [09:20] aiena: Edit ~/.bashrc and change HISTSIZE [09:20] ok [09:20] aiena: Set to -1 if you want unlimited (as per the man-page) [09:23] thanks [09:23] what the difference between HISTSIZE and HISTFILEZISE ? [09:25] aiena: "man bash" will tell you. [09:26] ok [09:26] aiena: SIZE is number of commands, FILESIZE is size of the file. [09:26] will look into it in a bit [09:26] Lots of other stuff to see there. :) [09:26] I am guessing that 2000 is in bits so its like 2mb [09:26] hi, when executing ls -sh how can i sort items by szie ? [09:26] That's not it, no [09:26] aiena: histsize is for ongoing session, filesize is for all sessions [09:27] yeah jink usually the only thing I tinker with is adding 'set -o vi' at the end [09:27] soee: -S [09:27] i dont touch anything else and usually in gui terminals the terminal emulator keeps the buffer [09:27] but here there is no term emulator [09:28] Buffer and history aren't the same thing. [09:28] jink: histfilesize is how much is saved after you close the session, it's not in bytes [09:28] Buffer is how far you can scroll back, history is what commands you used. [09:28] so you can have a histsize of 50, and a histfilesize of 10, so only the last 10 commands you ran in the session will be saved for next time [09:28] hateball: Ah, right. :) [09:29] I set both to a million, here. [09:29] And erasedups is on. :') [09:29] could just set to -1 for unlimited :p [09:29] Anyway, like I said, it's in the manual. [09:29] jink: So then I need th increase the buffer not hist [09:30] i want to scroll back up to see more stdin /stderr strings [09:30] million is too small, a trillion a bit too large. [09:30] hateball: Yes, but you know how that goes. When you least expect it, the disk is full when you exit. [09:30] jink: thanks [09:31] Simplify all network sysadmin tasks by sending all stdin/stderr > /dev/null => Wow! No errors! Great job! (sarcasm) [09:32] lol good one [09:33] or pipe it to a file and then parse that file with your brain [09:33] add sufficient volume so it explodes with buzzing electricity [09:33] BOFH administration tactics. [09:34] BOFH ? [09:34] and read it with less [09:34] because less is more but more is less [09:34] "Bast*d Operator From Hell" - old term for sysops/netadmins/sysadmins/sysops [09:34] Ah [09:35] but more is also not less and less is also not more [09:35] :P [09:35] BOFH for sure [09:35] and both are true [09:36] though contradictory === coffeeguy is now known as zennguy === zennguy is now known as covfefeguy === covfefeguy is now known as coffeeguy [10:08] Hello. Where can I find out what HP LaseJet printers/scanners work on Ubuntu? Is hplipopensource.com down for anyone else? [10:09] vlt: Seems down indeed [10:09] And that's your best bet [10:09] But usually the answer is "all of them" [10:10] hateball: Ok, thanks!
