[00:53] en1gma: 1: Always have backups of any important data, even if you aren't planning to do something like repartitioning and installing a second OS. [00:53] if you don't have a backup of your data, it is not important. [00:54] both gpt and mbr are supported. [00:54] en1gma: How the drive is set up do matter . Ya want ton install ubuntu in the same mode as Win10 . OEM install of Wind10 is a EFI (GPT) install . [00:54] en1gma, and use windows to resize the windows partitions [00:56] i can resize in windows 10 disk manager i think but then do i use gparted from live usb then reboot and do ubuntu installer? [00:57] kk4ewt: en1gma: I actually disagree with using Windows to resize the windows partitions. I think that ntfsresize (the tool used by Ubuntu's installer) is just as reliable at resizing ntfs as Windows' disk manager if both are used properly. I think there is less chance of user error when allowing Ubuntu's installer to handle partitioning. [00:58] en1gma: The Ubuntu installer can handle resizing your Windows installation. [01:02] hi serach vhost [01:08] im not worried about the resizing...nice try. i been talking about the gpt and mbr. [01:09] i installed windows 10 64 bit on single ssd. bios settings = secure boot on for uefi and and bios = off [01:10] what do i need to look for when using ubuntu 16.04 amd64 live installer [01:10] when partitioning comes up. [01:10] btw i resize in windows 10 and then use gparted quite often with no ill effects. [01:11] i would let windows make the free space, and let ubuntu handle partitioning & bootloader [01:11] what does ubuntu do when it comes across a windows 10 installation? does it know to continue with gpt? [01:22] en1gma: Ubuntu's installer never changes the type of partition table (unless you tell it to whipe the whole drive) and would choose GPT for a UEFI based install anyway. [01:29] Jordan_U good info to know there. thanks [01:29] en1gma: You're welcome. === Loshki is now known as loshki-posh-clam [01:37] ok, I got one. Ubuntu 14.04.5. I'm running a container with a bridge interface so it's public facing. Every few days or so it just loaded all network connectivity. The only way to restore is to reboot the host completely. Shutting down the container, restarting lxcfs, nor restarting networking on the host resolves it. [01:55] hi. I have some lvm volumes I'd like to mount, but they're not appearing in /dev, either as /dev//, or in /dev/mapper. googling brings up mostly irrelevant stuff. anybody got any clue how to figure out what's wrong? [01:56] I also tried `systemctl start lvm2`, but it says lvm2 is masked? [02:00] nvm, figured it out [02:12] Hi, I'm running a ipsec tunnel from router a to b-server (Ubuntu). On b-network, I can ping internal network on A-network. So IP-sec is working fine. But! I have another interface attached to the ubuntu server that is private network. Trying to route packets through the ubuntu server to A-network, but it's not working. [02:13] So the client is another linux-distro, static route is configured towards the ubuntu server, but not working. Any network help please?

For some reason the machine will not assign the correct handle to the raspi.. it doesn't show up as usb0, but some odd numeric string. [04:46] Ive seen some info on this, but the solutions don't work for me. Seems like a different, more fundamental issue. [04:46] and yes this is a Mint machine, but I see the exact same bugs in *buntu - so might as well be. [04:47] !mint | Legendre [04:47] Legendre: 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) [04:47] gotcha lotuspsychje [04:48] But fwiw, it does seem to be a base-wide issue.. if you haven't heard of it yet, you might. [04:48] Legendre: you can install ubuntu if you like, see if you have the same symptons and ask here then [04:49] lotuspsychje: thanks, yeah. I ran Xubuntu for around 8-9 years.. it's a fine series. [04:49] still have it on several machines, for that matter. [04:51] again, my point is that a search reveals that there are at least as many *buntu users with this experience as mint users. Which is kind of odd, as I'd think that buntu would have a way larger aggregate share. Anyway, cheers! [04:51] hello all [04:51] hey kythx [04:51] how are you? [04:52] just fine, thanks. Your dangself? [04:52] fine [04:52] So I was just griping about an issue I'm having in Mint. What are you doing here?

[05:18] you can't downgrade [05:18] you need to install 16.04 [05:18] Why? You can just keep multiple wine versions using eg Lutris [05:18] Seems less troublesome than reinstalling the entire OS [05:20] because it doesn't work with the same version of Wine [05:20] I am using 2.10 staging on both [05:20] when I boot into 16.04 it has a delay [05:20] *doesn't have the delay [05:20] right now I booted into 17.04 and it has the delay on 2.10 staging [05:23] whats up ppl [05:56] hey [05:56] hey :) [05:58] Is it possible to use GCC 5 on Ubuntu 14.04?

[06:32] Created a minimal xubuntu desktop from the ubuntu netinstall iso on a standard 2009 macbook. Laptop does not resume / awake / turn on the screen when the lid has been closed. Does anyne know how I can fix ths ?? [06:35] laceyaney, Is it safe to assume you've already asked in #xubuntu? [06:35] Yes I did and I even posted on the macbook area of ubuntuforums... [06:36] Been trying to work this out for weeks... [06:36] laceylaney, Cool bananas...just asking... [06:37] laceylaney, And (as I'm looking at my MBP) - you've hit the "power" button - and the same, ya? [06:37] Whenever I re-open the lid after I have closed it the screen sta~ys black and hitting the power button does nothing. [06:38] To get the laptop to work again I need to force power off by holding in the power button for seconds... [06:38] laceylaney, Fair enough - asking "just so's I know"... [06:38] Totally understand :-) [06:38] laceylaney, yeah - well, doing that's kinda pointless, ya reckon, eh... [06:38] Doesn't resolve the issue at hand. [06:39] Yea it kind of is... [06:39] laceylaney, What ver of Ubu? (16.04 or 17.04?) [06:39] hello [06:39] i rekked my box by doing a sudo mv $ENV_VAR/etc/passwd where the var was not set [06:39] All I want is to be able to close the lid and resume whenever I open it again. I'm using 16.04 fully updated... [06:40] anyone know how i can boot from this live CD and restore my /etc/passwd file? i am here now https://snag.gy/n6xtdo.jpg [06:40] laceylaney, Coolbeans...16.04 at least is "supported" - as it were... [06:40] laceylaney, And you've like double/triple checked the "energy" settings - the power settings and display settings and all that lovely jazz in the XFce control centre, yersh? [06:41] laceylaney I see a lot of complaints about that problem in the forums. I am running 16.04 on a desktop and suspend does the same thing. You have to power cycle the box to get it to come back. [06:41] Yes I have indeed :-) [06:41] ~Ahhhh right ok, thanks for the heads up :-) [06:42] !whowas psycowarrior [06:42] If all this is being "squacked" about in the forums - is there a primary issue - like is it the way the kernel handles the suspend/resume, or is it graphics, or is it the power daemon...? I'll assume it's not "desktop/window manager" related... [06:43] It can't be desktop related I don't think because this has happen to me before on, openbox, i3 or even lxde only installs... [06:44] laceylaney, Yersh...reckoned as much...but still asked "just cuz" [06:44] Why not lol [06:44] It acts like a bug to me. I've not seen any credible solutions posted. [06:44] laceylaney, When you do open the lid back up...and it's obviously BLACK...have you tried doing a CTRL+ALT+F1 to see if tty1 is accessible? [06:45] Yep I've tried many different things and that was one of them... [06:45] Easyrider, Small nuclear weapons are the answer. Kinda...not a clean answer...but an answer nonetheless... [06:45] laceylaney, Thought so...still...gonna ask... [06:46] And if you actually choose "hibernate" or "suspend" when you're logging off/locking - it does the exact same thing? [06:48] well with hibernate it does the same thing only it drains part of the battery while doing so. [06:48] Suspend just does the same as when closing the lid.~.. [06:48] with hibernate it is as if the batter does not fully power down... [06:49] laceylaney, Yersh... [06:49] laceylaney, And the amount of RAM you've got is equal to your swap size, yersh? [06:49] Yes indeedy [06:50] laceylaney, ...and can't blame M$ for this...(dang...dang...dang) [06:50] I just wish I could in some way... [06:50] laceylaney, I'm actually taking a dig through kernel parameters...cuz my curiosity is piqued... [06:51] Though in this day and age I hate apple just as much now lol. Ohhh amazing. Thank you very much :-) [06:52] laceylaney, I'm reading this right now: https://askubuntu.com/questions/768136/how-can-i-hibernate-on-ubuntu-16-04 [06:53] I'll have a read myself now too :-) === r0Oter is now known as r00ter [07:03] Have you found anything of use ??

On my pc its very slow. Strange. [07:22] Freddish think I'll miss unity. I rather liked it. [07:24] Once ubuntu has fully made the switch to gnome you'll be able to uninstall it and install unity instead [07:24] Unity is still going to be developed I think... [07:26] unity will be a community project [07:26] Yeah, but there'll be more complications by default. I'll see if i can get used to gnome. [07:27] I'm installing 16.04 instead of 17.04, is there any way to automatically install the software I have installed right now in the new version [07:32] Guys I have to run right now. Will be back on asap. Thanks for the help so far :-) [07:34] iopq bash scripting? [07:35] Kaixxl, I was wondering if there was a non-annoying method [07:35] someone to do the bash scripting [07:35] *pay [07:36] iopq xD well dism is worse! [07:37] but yeah. [07:38] I need GUI text editor that can do rectangular select and edit. Equivelant to notepad++ alt+select. Suggestions? [07:41] iopq: there are ways to build package manigests [07:41] iopq: the problem you've got is sometimes package names change between version/dependencies change between versions, or packages get obsoleted [07:41] manifests I meant [07:42] !apt-mirror [07:44] I want starcraft to work so now I'm at the zoo shaving a yak [07:44] what ? [07:44] so starcraft menus have a bug in ubuntu 17.04, but work perfectly in 16.04 - same Wine version (staging 2.10) [07:45] I tested this with clean installs [07:46] to install Ubuntu 16.04 on my SSD, I'd have to back up my home folder, but it's too large to fit on my HD because my HD has 3 partitions and there's a whole Bitcoin chain stored on the SSD [07:46] to back up my Bitcoin to use an SPV wallet I need to use software to extract my private keys [07:46] that software requires Qt [07:46] so I'm installing Qt in order for starcraft to work [07:47] oh and openJDK too, so that my SPV wallet runs and can import it [07:48] only so I can format this partition and install an earlier Ubuntu a few minutes later === juboxi is now known as jubo2 [07:53] iopq: you may try Aptik, it may do the job for you [07:56] o1e9, thanks, I'll take a look at it [08:36] I need help: vlc not playing, while Totem is leaking memory whenever I tired playing a particular1080p mkv file (I used to play other mkv without any issues although they are mainly 480p and 720p) ...oh it played without any problem on windows [08:39] hosas: do the different mkvs contain video with the same codec? [08:40] hateball: I don't think so, I never checked [08:44] mkv is a container, anything can be inside it [08:51] Ben64: I know that [08:52] hmm, i prefer mpv [08:53] hateball: I used mkvinfo to check the codec id: I found non for this particular file but, as I said earlier windows could play it [08:54] hosas: try playing with mplayer/mplayer2/mpv and pastebin the output [08:54] Ben64: ok [08:57] Ben64: all went well with mplayer :)...But I don't understand why vlc couldn't handle it [08:58] because vlc is not good [08:58] also terrible visual quality. [08:58] Ben64: hahahaha...come'on really? [08:58] really. [08:58] i'm baffled that so many people apparently like it [09:00] Ben64: vlc has been saving since I was a kid....do you know why this same file is causing memory leakage in Totem (I played but eventually freezes the system..when no memory left)? [09:01] idk, totem isn't good either [09:02] Ben64: ok thanks...noted [09:15] i can use ubuntu desktop as server? [09:17] No one is here? [09:17] nope [09:18] nope :( [09:18] then i must use ubuntu server? [09:18] iopq: ? [09:18] There is nothing to forgive you to use ubuntu desktop version as a server. What do you want to serve ? [09:19] The fact is that if you do so, you might expose your desktop (i.e. the apps you use and so on as a user) to the computers you serve. [09:20] https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-connect-to-your-droplet-with-ssh geodb27 [09:21] Yeah, and ? [09:21] so i must use ubuntu server? [09:22] j4ckcom: no [09:22] Why the hell ? you can install ssh server on any linux machine, be it a destkop, server, ubuntu or whatever version you have. [09:22] would help to know what you're trying to accomplish though [09:23] Ben64: i just studying linux command [09:23] :) [09:23] would make sense to not have a desktop then [09:25] Since you are under ubuntu, you can also try all you want in a lxd container. It should be as simple as : sudo apt-get install lxd && sudo lxd create ubuntu: lxc1 && lxc start lxc1 && lxc exec lxc1 -- /bin/bash --login in a terminal. [09:25] From then on, you are in a container where you can do whatever you want without risking anything to break your desktop. [09:28] hey sorry this question must have been asked several times but can't find a proper answer. I am trying to change the lightdm background on LTS 16.04. Any ideas which file I should edit for that ? [09:29] how do I show the menu of a program? It's missing for me [09:31] iopq: the menu of "a program" ? [09:31] any program, I have no menus [09:31] "no menus" what does that mean [09:31] can you give an example [09:32] like File... [09:32] I just have nothing [09:32] or Help [09:32] Try Alt+F [09:32] iopq: you mean the window boarder drop down menus [09:33] like file/edit/view/search that sort of thing [09:33] oh I found the setting [09:33] it's in appearance > behavior [09:43] hey, i cant mount a cifs drive.

[09:47] is this a docker container ? [09:47] no a docker host [09:48] no containers running at present [09:49] so you're missing the module then [09:49] I suspect it will be provided by the client package [09:50] although I'm dissapointed it's not standard if thats the case [09:50] what version of ubuntu is this ? [09:51] 16.10 [09:51] hi [09:51] standard kernel ? [09:51] not sure, how to check? [09:52] uname -r [09:52] 4.4.0-79-generic [09:53] I don't know if thats standard for 16.10 [09:53] I don't have a 16.10 box to hand here [09:53] could i switch to std one? [09:54] ikonia: apologies for the jump-in [09:54] is that not a standard one ? [09:54] dalto: not at all, get stuck in [09:54] thats what the channel is there fore [09:54] for even [09:55] :) [09:55] this fault started after a hard shutdown [09:55] I suspect that has nothing to do with it [09:56] I suspect you have the kernel updated and the update only took place after the reboot [09:56] now the standard 16.10 kernel is [09:56] 4.8.0-54 [10:02] 4.8 really ? [10:03] installing now [10:03] will report back [10:03] installing what ? [10:04] 4.8.0-54 [10:04] hang on [10:04] where did your other kernel come from [10:04] no ide [10:04] idea * [10:04] then how are you installing 4.8.0-54 [10:05] http://www.wikihow.com/Update-Ubuntu-Kernel [10:05] you're adding a PPA ? [10:05] yeh [10:05] what are you doing - that PPA is not the current supported kernel [10:05] why are you doing that [10:05] trying to solve the cifs prob. [10:06] no [10:06] that is not the answer [10:06] didn work [10:06] you're on your own - you're just doing random things [10:06] no logic behind it at all [10:06] thanks anyway. will try again after [10:06] Hi.

Seems everywhere I can install php-xml or php-dom or php5.6-xml, but I can find none of these packages. Any idea? [10:07] cant help - I missed the crux? [10:07] bizolos: what do you mean, "everywhere you can install them but you can't find them" [10:07] how are you installing them if you can't find them [10:08] 12.04 hasn't been supported for a couple months too [10:09] thats a good point [10:10] Hey folks [10:10] Oi [10:10] I mean everyone says to install these packages but I can't install them [10:10] Yep, I have to change my version but right now I can't. I'll have to do it quickly, but I can't right now [10:11] 12.04 is not safe to run [10:11] Does anyone here know how to create a delay after successful authentication (pam)? [10:11] All I can find is about minimizing or extending delays after authentication failures. [10:12] bizolos: have you installed the DOM extension?

I aint got a clue here and am relly just Dr. Googling [10:20] Hi I have a question about SMB under Kubuntu (In a virtualbox VM) my fstab doesn't auto mount what I set in it, the file manager says "permission denied: no match for", but it of course works excellent if I do sudo mount -a, an example of my fstab would be as such; //192.168.1.84/New/ /media/smbshare-shiva/New/ cifs username=guest,password=,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,users 0 0 [10:20] hasPHP7 solve for Ubuntu there also but sure about the non support deal with 12.04 TBH [10:20] *not sure I mean [10:21] gotta roll [10:23] does it mount manually? [10:23] Yes, if I use sudo mount -a it works [10:23] I googled it and it said I should have users in the fstab line if I want all users to be able to mount it [10:24] GWM: then it sounds like the network isnt ready [10:24] Yes the network is setup to auto connect to a VPN on this specific network [10:24] Can I setup a delay? [10:24] that just allows users in the "users" group to mount. [10:25] well I kinda assume my user is there, but let me check /etc/group [10:25] GWM: if it is the network (we dont know that) I'd suggest using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Autofs [10:25] then it will perform the mount when you try to access the share [10:25] just issue "id", then you can see which groups your user is part of. [10:26] huh I don't have a users group [10:26] sudo groupadd users? [10:27] already exists huh [10:27] Just looked at the man page (and my own crontabs). In mine it just states "user", not "users". [10:27] sorry... fstabs [10:28] I saw both in examples [10:28] when user didn't work I took users [10:28] when that didn't work I went here [10:28] (after more googling) [10:29] I would say, like hateball, that the network might not be ready at mount time. [10:30] especially as you can mount it manually. [10:30] I guess I don't mind setting up autofs, but if fstab could delay it would work as well [10:31] hardware (host and guest) is installed on a 960 evo nvme disk, might be too much for the poor wifi card in this laptop [10:31] or the auto join of a vpn [10:34] I think that does take a few seconds to set up... [10:34] Maybe I can use noauto [10:34] I'll try that first [10:35] Then it won't mount at boot time, but you can then add a little boot script to the end of the boot sequence. Of course depending on which init system you use. [10:35] I think default is systemd? [10:35] In newer ubuntu, yes. Don't have much experience with that yet. [10:35] #owncloud [10:36] But, I think they've implemented a backwards compatible layer as well. [10:36] sysvinit fanatical? :D [10:36] Nope. I use both, just haven't gotten as familiar with systemd as I am with SystemV [10:37] This gif is either verboten or posted too often; http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/925/966/8d2.gif [10:38] hi I'm having a hard time configuring davfs2 getting /sbin/mount.davfs:/etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf:36: unknown option it seems as soon as I uncoment secrets option in davfs2.conf bam! [10:39] Heh... I've seen that gif before. And must admit that I'm not a huge fan of systemd. That being said, there are some features i REALLY like in it. [10:39] Hmmmm how do I edit my boot sequence under systemd then, and add mount -a too the end [10:40] questions questions, google, my oracle, whisper me your secrets [10:40] See, that's what I mean about not being all up on systemd. For me it'll be trial and error, but maybe they have a "last" keyword to the unit files somewhere. [10:40] oh a simple systemd script and put it after target.network maybe? [10:41] anyone on davsf2 ? [10:41] unless your vpn is a separate target. [10:41] now where does kubuntu want systemd scripts [10:41] *davfs2 [10:41] obinoob: sorry, never used it. [10:41] network-manager with openvpn plugin, let's find out [10:42] bhoejte: thats fine ;) anyone else? [10:42] Now THAT i've seen just yesterday (unit file placement)... Just a moment. [10:43] Cr.p... That was SuSE, but they have it in /etc/systemd/system [10:44] That is, that's where they store their unit files. [10:45] uh, bhoejte, stupid question, but where is the actual mount command? [10:45] sbin? bin? /usr/bin? [10:45] in /bin/mount [10:45] I can find a mount.cifs in sbin [10:46] In a shell, do an "which mount", that will tell you what command it executes. [10:46] It calls the individual mount executables that's used for each filesystem. [10:47] You could call the mount.cifs directly instead. [10:47] Mkay [10:48] I wonder if this'll work; https://pastebin.com/Se33Ngc6 [10:48] too stupid? [10:49] It might, and no, You're not too stupid, at least not from what I've seen. :-) [10:49] is the davsf2 package broken for server 16.04 ? [10:49] I meant the script, not myself :D [10:49] Alright let's give it a spin, do I need to enable the service or will systemd pick it up [10:50] by itself? [10:50] sudo systemctl enable mount-smb.service? [10:50] I usually do ExecStart and ExecStop to execute start/stop scripts with unit files. [10:50] unit file? [10:51] what would I use as my ExecStop paramater? [10:51] The same thing again? [10:52] [Service] [10:52] ExecStart=/bin/mount -a [10:52] ExecStop=/bin/mount -a [10:52] I call a wrapper script, then do the command in there. [10:52] But it might work. [10:52] Something like: [10:52] ExecStart=/app/KMD_SCRIPTS/bin/wildfly_startup.sh ExecStop=/app/KMD_SCRIPTS/bin/wildfly_shutdown.sh [10:53] Alright [10:53] I'll give it a whirl, time to reboot [10:56] could someone give me a brief description of how the gpio pins are accessed? [10:57] Right. The next time I should maybe pay attention if I write sudo reboot into the VM or the host [10:57] maybe. [10:57]
