cipher6Can we get help in here?00:05
bazhangask a question cipher600:06
cipher6Awesome, Lubuntu 16.04, systemd-analyze plot > foobar.svg gives me very large svg with a huge number of process with bright red bars,00:06
cipher6and I feel like my system is taking a long time to boot,00:06
bazhanghow long00:07
cipher63min 9.14s on a Lenovo T420 with an i5 and 4gb of ram00:07
IIIdefconIIIssd?00:07
cipher6Ubuntu on my busted a$$ HP boots faster and it's running unity00:08
bazhangcipher6, and what is the typical fast time you had before00:08
cipher6don't believe so, is there a way to see if it's platter/ssd w/ cracking open the case?00:08
cipher6bazhang, never had it faster, on lubuntu,00:08
IIIdefconIIIthere are tools yes not sure which00:08
cipher6just went from ubuntu on a cheap laptop to this nice lenovo and a thinner distro and didn't expect the delay00:09
IIIdefconIIIwiht disk you can see the sidk type00:09
IIIdefconIIIwith disks you can see the disk model00:09
IIIdefconIIIand google that to know if it has ssd00:09
cipher6disk and disks aren't found, did I mean diskd from fdutils?00:09
IIIdefconIIIno just disks00:10
IIIdefconIIIas an application not in terminal00:10
cipher6OH gotcha, let me look00:10
bazhang!info gnome-disk00:10
ubottuPackage gnome-disk does not exist in zesty00:10
cipher6lol00:10
cipher6no but disks is in the system tools in the gui, one sec00:10
IIIdefconIIIindeed00:10
cipher6WDC WD5000BUCT-57LS5Y100:10
cipher6googling now00:11
IIIdefconIIIthat no ssd00:11
IIIdefconIIIfor sure00:11
bazhanggnome-disk-utility00:11
bazhangwhat about that00:11
cipher6500gb Platter, :(00:11
cipher6but still, it's a 5400rpm drive, maybe i'm just being a bitch about it00:11
IIIdefconIIInot sure what youre normal boot time was before..00:11
IIIdefconIIIyou ocan try defrag it... dont think it going to help alot 5400 is just slow00:12
boohHi.  I want to convert a physical machine to kvm so I do ssh to a remote running machine and dd to have a raw image that I convert to qcow2.  It's ok with a machine that have a /dev/sda but... is it possible to dd /dev/md ??  I have md0, md1 and md2.  Or can I just dd the first drive?  (raid1 anyway)00:12
IIIdefconIIIyou have alot of apps installed?00:12
IIIdefconIIImaybe try booting live from usb and compare speeds00:12
IIIdefconIIIdont know anyting about that booh sry00:13
cipher6No, lubuntu is nearly new, through on hexchat, chrome, and uninstalled some of the stock packages00:13
IIIdefconIIItry booting live from usb see if its the harddisk that is the bottleneck, i think so00:13
cipher6whoa booh, that's intense. I have no offer for that00:13
cipher6thanks IIIdefconIII00:13
IIIdefconIIIglad to provide help00:14
cipher6IIIdefconIII, any idea why the plot has all these red bars? when the others are maroon, are the red ones, ones that ran longer than normal/necessary?00:14
IIIdefconIIInot sure if i know what youre meaning what plot?00:15
IIIdefconIIIwhere do you see red bars00:15
cipher6IIIdefconIII, do me a favor an run systemd-analyze plot > foobar.svg and it will give you a visual rep of the time it took your system on last boot00:15
IIIdefconIIIit doesnt do much :p00:16
cipher6? it didn't give you an svg file?00:16
IIIdefconIIIyes00:16
IIIdefconIIIhow to open it :p00:16
cipher6double click it, if you have the gui, the image viewer will open it00:16
IIIdefconIIIdone that lots of red00:17
cipher6hm,, if you zoom way in on the top left, what's your boot time?00:17
IIIdefconIIIup to 17 seconds00:17
IIIdefconIIItop right you mean?00:17
IIIdefconIIIleft says 0.0 s00:17
IIIdefconIIIright says 1700:17
IIIdefconIIIkernal takes 5 secon userspace 1700:18
[n0mad]1min 11.640s00:18
cipher6Highest top left corner says "Startup finished in *.***s (kernel) + *min*.***s(userspace)= *min*.***s00:18
IIIdefconIIIcool feature never knew it excistance00:18
cipher6Mine is 6.8s kernel, 3min2s for userspace00:19
cipher6are you on SSD or platter?00:19
IIIdefconIIIssd mate00:19
* cipher6 cries00:19
IIIdefconIIIhaha00:19
cipher6lol00:19
cipher6seriously though, 7 seconds?00:19

IIIdefconIIIyes00:19
[n0mad]i'm on platter, i7, 8GB ram00:19
IIIdefconIIIthis is quad core shitty old pc00:20
IIIdefconIII4 gb ram00:20
IIIdefconIIIbut ssd00:20
IIIdefconIIIusing it for kodi ubuntu os + kodi and some home automation00:20
IIIdefconIIIhdd was just too slow for me on kodi00:20
cipher6[n0mad], what do you get for $systemd-analyze plot > foobar.svg ?00:20
IIIdefconIIIhe just said00:20
IIIdefconIII1 min 1100:21
cipher6I can't see that....00:21
IIIdefconIII<[n0mad]> 1min 11.640s00:21
cipher6Oh, it was above my comment00:21
cipher6See it now00:21
IIIdefconIII;)00:21
cipher6so i7 w/ 2 the ram, half the boot time,maybe i'm just being whiny00:21
cipher6I'll have to look around and see if I have any ssd's.00:22
IIIdefconIIIi thkn ssd will provide you happyness00:22
IIIdefconIIIsry no native english00:22

RonWhoCaresI just put a brand new SD card into the card reader.  It needs formatting.  How do I do this?01:33
leviiihi. i'm trying to upgrade to OpenSSL 1.1.0 so I can use EVP_ functions in my C program. i'm running Ubuntu 16.04 and downloaded the openssl tarball(config, make, make install), but no matter what i do, I still see the same version (openssl version).01:34
l1Ll1Ll1LRonWhoCares you should be able to do it from gparted, that is probably easiest01:34
RonWhoCaresIt isn't listed in gparted01:35
l1Ll1Ll1Lhmm that isn't ideal. Can you see it in lsblk -a ?01:36

RonWhoCaresif you get into an HDD make sure you use a powered hub01:43

RonWhoCaresleviii: I'll tell you, but I don't want you to feel sorry for me01:46
leviiihehe, k01:46
RonWhoCaresIt is quite serious01:46
RonWhoCaresI had a rare hip disease when I was 2 years old.  This was 1979.  The lack of medical knowledge at the time set me up for a life time of a physical disability, using a wheelchair for all but a few steps and chronic pain01:47
RonWhoCaresA whole lot of collateral damage happened to my skeletal system that doesn't happen if you have the disease now.  Treatment now is so much more effective.01:47
leviiiwow01:48
RonWhoCaresI am receiving a long term disability.  The annual 1% increase isn't keeping up with the actual cost of inflation.01:48
leviiiShould be 3%01:48
RonWhoCaresI want to help myself.  That's all I've ever wanted to do.  I've now had 7 orthopedic surgeries.  I need 2 more within a few years.  Then I'll need another 4 in ~25 years from now01:48

RonWhoCaresWhat the Pine64 means to me is the possibility of self employment.  It means a server where the Internet is able to be consistent where chronic pain affects me each day.01:49
RonWhoCaresOK01:49
l1Ll1Ll1LRonWhoCares, how are you trying to turn Pine64 skills into self employment?01:50
RonWhoCaresl1Ll1Ll1L: I am trying to use my youTube channel, build a web site to go with it, setup an online forum, a small online store, etc.01:52
RonWhoCaresI host my own web site01:52
l1Ll1Ll1Lok, well, good luck01:52
l1Ll1Ll1Lnot sure Pine64 is particularly well suited to being your server if you get much traffic though I have to say01:52
RonWhoCaresI have 4 of them01:53
RonWhoCaresI am setting up a cluster01:53
l1Ll1Ll1Lhmm interesting01:53
RonWhoCaresI want to write and sell eBooks about chronic pain, living with a physical disability, and living with a wheelchair for mobility01:54
RonWhoCaresThere is also my blog01:54
RonWhoCaresIf I sell the eBooks myself it means I won't be giving a % of the cuts to an existing eStore01:54
l1Ll1Ll1Lgood thinking on that front01:54
RonWhoCarespart of this also is about marketing.  If someone would subscribe to a monthly membership I would give them the ebooks free01:55

sjohnsonhi.  how does one "link back" what device "eth0" is?02:02
sjohnsoni have an intel and marvel NIC and i'm having problems.  just want to make sure which one is which easily.02:02
sjohnsongrepping "dmesg" output isn't that pleasant.02:02
[n0mad]can't you just grep eth0?02:05
sjohnsonlspci shows the 2 network cards but i only see one configured in ifconfig.02:06
sjohnsonand it's actually not eth0, sorry.  it's enp1s0.02:06
sjohnsonhad to write it down.02:07
[n0mad]which is probably eth0 if you dmesg | grep eth002:07
[n0mad]on mine it is02:07
sjohnsoni can't find the marvell card that shows up in lspci in dmesg.02:08
sjohnsonwhich is another problem i'll have to face eventually.02:08
sjohnsonany hints?02:08
[n0mad]sorry, probably best to see if anyone else chimes in that might be more familiar with dealing with hardware02:12
Bashing-omsjohnson: '  sudo lshw -C network ' show what you want ?02:14
sjohnsonwill give it a try, sec.02:20
sjohnsonyes it did actually, thank you!02:21
sjohnsoni've been desiring a command like that for years.02:21

PipeItToDevNullIRC is a slow process04:05
PipeItToDevNullPlease be patient04:05
PipeItToDevNullYou can wait or upgrade, your experience will likely be the same. If you perfrom the upgrade correctly your files should be just fine. But, you of course keep backups so it is not a real risk.04:06
lotuspsychjesomeone_: non-lts is less stable then LTS why do you want to upgrade exactly?04:12

dw1not sure it's an option per https://hardforum.com/threads/gigabyte-z170x-gaming5-missing-above-4g-decoding-option.1930413/06:43
EriC^^dw1: maybe you need to update the bios06:43
Auctusso i installed 17.04 on my laptop, an HP 6910p core2duo with 4gb of RAM, where I previously had 16.04. I guess defaulting to RAM*0.5 swap doesn't work very well for <=4GB in terms of it being slow often06:52
Auctusalso, this is kind of hilarious as a "security" issue, but when you wake such a laptop from sleep, it shows you whatever is on the screen for like a solid 30 seconds before it ever shows you the lock screen06:52
Auctusit being non-interactive before you get to the lock screen06:53
dw1EriC^^, derp, it worked :)07:04
lotuspsychje!swap | Auctus07:04
ubottuAuctus: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info07:04
Auctusyeah, my point was, it worked a lot better with 1:1 swap to ram, rather than 1:2, and I assume this is also the cause of the lock screen thing07:05
EriC^^dw1: updating the bios?07:05
Auctusmaybe this is a non-issue on desktops with 8GB+07:06
Auctus4GB is probably still the most commonly sold laptop today07:06

scriptso What files or folders would you consider important when it comes to back up? I find myself in a situation where, reasons that are not part of the question, that I have to manually reinstall Ubuntu...07:25
scriptsoOf course I mean system files not personal files   and I'm very aware of applications like timeshift and aptic...  Part of that situations is that I can't I just can't use it.07:25

scriptsohey thats yeah! Hey thanks!  Again,  I'm quite aware of different backup applications ... I've used the pusit in the past as well..  I'm talking about.   Well put it this way I can't download any applications because my network card is fried,  and if I just download it and they transfer to the PC it's almost impossible because and hardly any space and the partition table is just a wreck07:29

swenssonWhen Im using ufw I can't do apt update (stuck at 0%)... What do I need to allow?08:49
l1Ll1Ll1Lyou should probably share the rules your firewall is using08:54
l1Ll1Ll1L^swensson08:54
FalcCan someone help troubleshoot an NFS mounting issue? I can mount the share perfectly fine on a Debian Squeeze and on my Ubuntu 17.04 laptop, but not on the Ubuntu 16.04 server I need it on (Operation not permitted)08:55
l1Ll1Ll1Ldo you have a firewall on your server?08:56
l1Ll1Ll1Loperation not permitted is the message I always see when I try to ping and a firewall keeps me from doing so =P08:56
Falcnope, server is a Synology NAS (also, why would the firewall block one client and not 2 others?)08:57
l1Ll1Ll1LI meant a firewall on the ubuntu server08:58
Falcah yes... how would I check? I'm very inexperienced with firewalls...08:58
AginorFalc: do you have nfs mount permissions on the server? - NFS can do access control on the server side, saying that addresses from a particular address can connect08:58
l1Ll1Ll1Ldo iptables -S08:58
l1Ll1Ll1Lwell sudo iptables -S08:58
Falc-P INPUT ACCEPT08:59
Falc-P FORWARD ACCEPT08:59
Falc-P OUTPUT ACCEPT08:59
l1Ll1Ll1Lno firewall08:59
swenssoniptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT solved it =)08:59
l1Ll1Ll1L:)08:59
AginorFalc: NFS also does UID checking, you could fall afoul of that09:01
FalcAginor: how would I test that? And why does it work on my laptop, when my laptop shares 0 users with the server?09:02
rymate1234is ubuntu touch dead?09:05
AginorFalc: check the system logs on the server and the client09:07
AginorFalc: compare the commands/configuration used to mount the directory09:07

karolyihey, is anyone having problems with installing redis-server on 17.04 and getting "Too many levels of symbolic links" systemd errors?09:10
karolyiafter having googled around, it seems it's a bug in systemd but it should have already been fixed09:10
sirru5hbecause YankDownUnder that is what it seems to be doing ...09:11
FalcAginor: synology doesn't seem to have logs, client logs would be where? Also, commands are exactly the same and acces restrictions are OK09:13
AginorFalc: /var/log/systemlog09:14
AginorFalc: what's the *exact* error message?09:14
Falcmount.nfs4 -v 10.0.0.103:/ /tmp/nfs09:15

YankDownUndersirru5h, Um...I'm lost - wassup?09:15
FalcAginor: tried it both as root and with sudo09:17
sirru5hyank you ever heard of a module being linked like a shortcut to a file09:17
YankDownUndersirru5h, yes09:17
AginorFalc: can you run "showmount -e <ip addr>" it'll list the shares on the server, and from where they can be accessed09:17
sirru5hahhh you know how that command would go?09:18
FalcAginor: Export list for srv-fhq-storage: /volume1/backup 10.0.0.0/1609:18
AginorFalc: https://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?t=10508209:18
sirru5hYankDownUnder,  I'm pretty much working with a user manual and trying to figure out how this thing works09:19
YankDownUndersirru5h, You'd use "ln" to accomplish this task...but be ABSOLUTELY sure of things...mucking about with symbolic links can get, er, a bit puzzling at times...especially if you're not taking notes (somewhere)09:19
sirru5hYankDownUnder, Yeah I know ln does get interesting, and I am taking notes, it's for work so everything is being documented.09:21
YankDownUndersirru5h, Make copies of the notes! Just in case (mistakes can be made)09:23
sirru5hSo let me ask this YankDownUnder say we are talking ip tables here the module has a hardcoded table name you could do a symlink say from /proc/net/ip_tables_names to the module09:23
sirru5hand pretty much the table should be hidden09:24
sirru5hproviding we flush whatever the current tables are it will go by whats in the module09:24
FalcAginor: saaaay... is it possible that this could be caused by the fact the Ubuntu server is an LXD container?09:25
AginorFalc: possibly :)09:25
belakI feel like I'm running into the opposite issue of most people... I'm having an issue where my shell inside gnome-terminal remembers which dir I'm in when I open a new tab - I don't want that... I'd like it to always start in the home dir. Is there any way to do this09:26
belak?09:26
afidegnumanyone tried installing google keep on ubuntu?09:27
YankDownUndersirru5h, NOW I'm lost (could be cuz I'm tired and don't understand the back story here)09:27
sirru5humm I'm tired as well YankDownUnder09:32
sirru5hYankDownUnder, if i created a kernel module it's job basically is just to keep an iptables table and rules and flush the existing tables and rules, then did a symbolic link to the module which has the rules I created would that work? (Like theoretically at this point although testing will come later)09:36

arun007Hi10:23
mgaunardhi, I just upgraded to ubuntu 17.04 and it messed up my multiple monitor setup10:24
mgaunardIt also seems xorg.conf has disappeared, is this not running X11 anymore?10:24
Ben64xorg hasn't been needed for a while10:28
Ben64xorg.conf *10:28
mgaunardI've tried to play with xinerama or gnome-panel settings, to no avail10:37
Ben64what video card10:37
mgaunardnvidia10:39
mgaunarda recent one, gtx 1070, using proprietary drivers, one X screen per screen10:39
mgaunardsorry no, not a gtx 1070, I'm confusing that with another computer10:39
mgaunarda quadro nvs 450, not nearly as new10:40
mgaunardgoogle suggests that there is an add-on to make gnome-panel span multiple screens, but I have no add-on and that's definitely not what I want10:42
Ben64make sure you have the right driver and use nvidia-settings to set it up10:42
arun007Hi10:53
mgaunardthe problem is with gnome-panel, xfce4-panel works fine and doesn't span the multiple monitors11:07

kacper_hello! I tried to upgrade ubuntu by changing the sources.list to newer one and do apt-get upgrade. I didn't upgrade the kernel first(it's 2.6). I've got an error that this version of the libc requres kernel 3.2 or later.. I tried to stop the dpkg-reconfigure and install the newer kernel, but it stopped on the same step. Is there any chance to postpone the reconfigure somehow?11:48
ioriakacper_, i guess your previous release was too old ...   lucid ?  and to what version now ?11:54
kacper_trusty => xenial11:55
kacper_ioria: ^11:56
ioriakacper_, idt so11:56
kacper_I checked it in my sources.list..11:56
ioriakacper_, trusty is 3.13 not 2.611:57
kacper_I guess i didn't update the kernel then11:57
ioriakacper_,  cat /etc/issue11:58
kacper_now it's updated 16.04 2 LTS11:58
kacper_but it's not reconfigured yet11:58
kacper_it freezes on the checking init script11:58
ioriakacper_,  and uname -r   what it says ?11:59
kacper_uname -r11:59
kacper_2.6.32-042stab120.2011:59
ioriakacper_, so it's not trusty11:59
kacper_It was trusty12:00
kacper_I changed the sources.list to new one and do apt-get upgrade; apt-get dist-upgrade12:00
ioriakacper_, really ? how ?12:00
kacper_just bymyself.. I edited the sources.list12:00
compdocthat sounds bad12:00
ioriakacper_, you 'could'  do that, but really not recommended12:01
kacper_ok. Can I change the sources.list to the previous form and do the update then? Is it possible to skip dpkg reconfigure ?12:01
ioriano12:01
kacper_ok, I didn't know that. That's how I was updating debian in the past12:01
kacper_ok.. so is there any other way to fix it other than reinstall?12:02
ioriakacper_,  ok, 2.6 i think it's lucid, not trusty and second that kernel it's not even stock12:02
Anceruname -a12:03
kacper_Linux xxxxx 2.6.32-042stab120.20 #1 SMP Fri Mar 10 16:52:50 MSK 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux12:03

jostHi! I have created a virtual machine with XUbuntu on a remote server, and would like to run automated tests in browsers there, using Jenkins. I have installed all the needed browsers, but most of them need a display to work. Since there is no display connected, and the SSH session does not use X11 forwarding, the browsers won't start. I have found Xvfb as a workaround, using the commands `Xvfb :1 &` and `export DISPLAY=:1`. After those are executed, the tests16:26
jost will run fine when started manually. But if the tests are run by Jenkins, the browsers won't find a display again. I've tried to add those commands to .bashrc, to .profile and some more things - It worked when running the tests manually using ssh, but it does not work when running them via Jenkins.

Elec_Ath0r: I think I'm missing a point here. The route of what?16:45
nicomachusminimec: what's that?16:46
th0rElec_A: you set up a default route to that interface. I never used Network Mangler to define a route, so jhutchins_wk will have to tell you how to do that.16:46
Elec_Ath0r: Gateway and Netmask has already been configured. why should I define a route ?16:46
minimecnicomachus: First link I postet is the pepperflash package. The 2nd link makes pepperflash available in firefox.16:47
nicomachusminimec: thanks, I'm using Chromium though16:47
th0rElec_A: anything going out wlan0 will go to the gateway, anything going out eth0 will go to THAT gateway. But what about something you generate locally...on the computer. Which way should it go? That is the routing16:48
jhutchins_wkElec_A: Routing is the machanism that controls that.16:48
=== juboxi is now known as jubo2
Elec_Ath0r, jhutchins_wk Thank you, I have a very vague understanding of routing since I have not worked with it before. I have to study a bit more.16:51
jhutchins_wkElec_A: It's probably easiest to set the default route to the internet card and the networks that are specific to the other card (local network) to the other card.16:53
Elec_Ajhutchins_wk: Adding a route requests ipaddress, netmask and gateways, what confuses me is I have already entered these information for the interface. Should I do it again to create a route?16:55
nicomachusminimec: my flash is apparently out of date (Ubuntu repos ship pepper flash 25, current version is 26)16:56
minimecnicomachus: In fact I have become aware of exactly that problem with chromium and pepperflash on fedora26, but as chromium is just my 'backup browser' a wait for the bug to be resolved. It is nice to now that the problem is not only fedora or ubuntu related, but affects multiple distros. You will not see that problem with the google chrome version.16:59
jhutchins_wkElec_A: It's asking for the information for the route, not the device.17:01

kirillkhI installed KDE on top of a fresh Ubuntu 17.04 (not Kubuntu). it created a Home and Trash shortcuts on the desktop, but clicking Home brings up a "Choose Application - Plasma" dialog. what am I doing wrong?17:31
BoredDanManDreaman: whats that?17:35
daveomcdI'm wanting to set the priority on a process in ubuntu so it wont max out the usage - but I want to have it set so that anytime it's called the priority is set lower for it. How can I do this? I've only seen it where when I call the process name to execute it that I add "nice" before the call...17:35
BoredDanManDreaman: (kernel x.org video card)17:35
saryX should detect/use nvidia card + proprietary driver without any xorg.conf present17:37
minimecBoredDanMan: I  have a somehow crazy idea... Could you once try to 'blacklist snd_hda_intel'? Like that the nvidia hdmi sound output isn't loaded either. If that works, we can try to find a way to only disable the nvidia hdmi sound module... I have that strange feeling that nvidia hdmi audio might be the problem...17:37
saryis this a dual graphic machine BoredDanMan !17:37
BoredDanMansary yes17:38
BoredDanManI can get my dual monitors to work on windows 1017:38
BoredDanManminimec: trying that now17:38
glitsj16daveomcd: make a drop-in script and let that call the 'real' program with the nice values you need.. either in ~/bin (for your user) or in /usr/local/bin (system-wide)17:38
BoredDanManminimec: how would i go about blacklisting that?17:39
nailykhi. I have a problem with a lan adapter intel i211. Link is constantly flapping making it unusable.17:41
daveomcdglitsj16, thanks!17:41
nailykAny advices?17:41
minimecBoredDanMan: sudo echo 'blacklist snd_hda_intel' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-intel-sound.conf17:41
minimecBoredDanMan: That should work.17:41
minimecBoredDanMan: check the result with 'cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-intel-sound.conf ; then reboot...17:42
nailykpartial syslog: http://paste.debian.net/975751/17:43
glitsj16daveomcd: no problem, just make sure the drop-in script has the exact same name as the real deal (refer to that using its full path)  and is executable17:43
minimecBoredDanMan: To be sure... I sugegst that you use a intel Chipset, which is pretty common nowadays...17:44
BoredDanManpretty sure im using an intel chipset17:44
BoredDanManill try it17:44
yao_ziyuani was interested in buying a 24" touchscreen for my desktop pc, but i did a test first: i ran a Ubuntu 17.04 live usb stick on a touchscreen laptop, and found ubuntu didn't support the touchscreen right click as windows did (long touching a screen position to right click).17:45
yao_ziyuanany solution?17:46
minimecBoredDanMan: If it wirks you will not have sound after reboot, using the internal soundcard. But it's just for a try. We can go further afterwards.17:46
oerheksyao_ziyuan, maybe that machine needs drivers from the driver menu, who can tell ??17:47
BoredDanMan_ok so something weird happened... My main monitor is working fine, but the other monitor is stuck displaying the ubuntu boot splash screen17:48
jhutchins_wk BoredDanMan There should be an Nvidia utility that installed with the proprietary drivers.  That is probably what you need to enable the port.17:49
minimecBoredDanMan: Good! Now try to configure it in the monitors gui...17:49
yao_ziyuanoerheks: so if the touchscreen manufacturere provides drivers for linux, linux would support touchscreen-based right click like windows?17:50
BoredDanMan_Ive already installed and am using nvidia proprietary drivers (version 375)17:50
oerheksyao_ziyuan, install ubuntu and enable drivers and see if it works.. testing the live iso is not suitable for your situation17:51
oerheksor use 2 usb sticks, boot live and install on the 2nd usb and boot from that17:51
BoredDanMan_lets see, theres the nvidia x server settings utility17:51
BoredDanMan_xrandr still only showing one hdmi port17:51
minimecBoredDanMan_: Can you activate the second screen in nvidia-settings now?17:52
BoredDanMan_hmmm its still only detecting one display17:52
sarynailyk: did this issue occured after an update/upgrade .. were you using wicd prior to Network manager!17:52
BoredDanMan_im wondering if one of the hdmi ports is built into the intel chipset or something17:53
nailyksary: thk for answering. tbho I don't remember when it start first.17:53
BoredDanMan_that would be weird but its possible17:53
nailyksary: no wicd, only wired network17:53
minimecBoredDanMan_: Ok. In that case you can 'sudo rm /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-intel-sound.conf' to delete the file we created and reboot again. My suggestion did not do the trick... ;)17:54
BoredDanMan_minimec: want to see the output of my lspci?17:54
minimecBoredDanMan_: I don't think that will help, as the card is recognized by the system. It would only show us the exact hardware you are using. Still... That output might be the starting point for debugging.17:56
minimecBoredDanMan_: I am pretty sure that using DVI as example for one of the monitors would work without problems.17:57
BoredDanMan_that is likely, but right now i only have hdm cords hahaha17:57
BoredDanMan_and it *should* work17:58
BoredDanMan_it works in windows 1017:58
nailykafter enabling pcie_aspm=off kernel option syslog had new entries: http://paste.debian.net/975752/17:58
BoredDanMan_oooh wait maybe i have xinerama enabled18:01

Jordan_UODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODODyao_ziyuan: I don't have a touchscreen to test with. From my googling it looks like Ubuntu doesn't enable touch and hold for right click by default.18:06

arun007how did you broke it?18:33
Jordan_U!details | freelancerbob18:33
ubottufreelancerbob: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel.18:33
freelancerbobi just unplug it and try plug it again, seems like read-only device and only 5KB18:34
freelancerbobit is 4GB usb stick18:34
pankajThis question may be out of the topic but please if anyone knows something then it would be very grateful. I was reading ubuntu documentation on servers. In ftp server section I read a line: "A major difference is that users of SFTP need18:36
pankajto have a shell account on the system, instead of a nologin shell.". I do not know what this line means correctly.18:36
Jordan_Ufreelancerbob: USB sticks die rather frequently. Did you have important data on this USB stick that you don't have other copies of elsewhere?18:36
Sleakerpankaj: when you connect via sftp, you're by default logging into an actual account on the system with shell access18:37
Sleakerie: one that can get a terminal prompt.18:37
yao_ziyuanoerheks: am installing ubuntu on that touchscreen laptop as you suggested. besides, i checked the website for the touchscreen i was interested in buying (ViewSonic TD2420), and it only provided drivers for windows.18:37
freelancerbobJordan_U: no there were not important data, but i would like to know if there is some way how to fix it18:38
pankajSleaker: What about nologin shell?18:38
Sleakerpankaj: what about it?18:38
Sleakerpankaj: I suggest checking the man-page on nologin. it's a program18:39
pankajSleaker: What is nologin user. What is its importance. I have been trying to find about it for much time.18:39
Sleakerpankaj: you set a users shell (the program that runs when they login) to /sbin/nologin18:39
pankajSleaker: OK. man page provided enough info. But still.18:41
Jordan_Ufreelancerbob: Probably not.18:42
pankajSleaker: man page says that nologin is used as something like to refuse conection for login since the account does not exist.18:42
pankajSleaker: Hello18:44
yao_ziyuanJordan_U: i tried "Simulated Secondary Click" when i tested a ubuntu 17.04 live usb stick on a touchscreen laptop. it worked but a little differently from windows: it required me to tap once and then quickly hold down my finger at the same screen position for 1-2 seconds to make a right click, while in windows i only had to directly hold down for 1 second (without the prior tapping).18:45
seruyukuHi all.  For 2 days I have tried to partition my Win10 and install Ubuntu but I cannot get the boot to work right.   I have been through stack tutorials and blogs and I still can't get an option for dual boot between Win10 and Ubuntu.   Any help is appreciated!18:45
Sleakerpankaj: correct.18:46
Sleakerpankaj: specifically it states that 'it's not available for login' - it does not mean the account doesn't exist.18:47
akikseruyuku: have you checked whether you have a menu in your bios where you can set an efi file as a bootable file? i had to do this on a acer laptop18:48
pankajSleaker: OK18:48
BoredDanMananyone have experience installing intel HD graphics drivers on ubuntu 16.04? I tried their new tool and now im getting stuck at the loading screen18:50
BoredDanManseems like the microcode module is blacklisted?18:51
akikBoredDanMan: the intel graphics drivers come with the kernel18:53
akikBoredDanMan: i915 is the name18:53
BoredDanManhmmm18:53
akikmaybe i965 too18:54
BoredDanMani think its i91518:54
seruyukuakik:  Thanks for your response!   I am looking in the BIOS now.   Under Boot sequence I only have option for Windows boot manager and UEFI: INT13(USB,0x80).   I assume the second one if my USB drive.18:54
BoredDanManthe hdmi attached to the gpu is working fine - the hdmi attached to the intel HD graphics integrated card is the one thats not working18:54
BoredDanManakik: yes that should be your USB18:54
akikseruyuku: there should be another page with uefi settings18:55
Sleakerskylake support is in kernel > 4.318:55
Sleakerso unless you have something super super new, 16.04 has everything you need as a baseline.18:55
seruyukuakik: I see now the boot options for UEFI.   I can specify a file name for boot.   RIght now it is \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi18:56
akikseruyuku: can you add another file there?18:56
seruyukuakik:  No it just lets me look at it18:56
SleakerBoredDanMan: what CPU do you have?18:56
BoredDanMani718:56
seruyukuI can add a boot option though?18:56
akikseruyuku: sometimes you need to change the admin password to do the edit18:56
SleakerBoredDanMan: what CPU do you have...18:57
akikseruyuku: \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi works with ubuntu18:57

Sleakerk that's a kaby-lake18:58
SleakerI'm not sure if kernel 4.4 fully supports that chipset which is what was in xenial.18:58
seruyukuakik:  Ok I found that file and changed the sequence to it.   Restarting, fingers crossed!18:58

pavlosResQue: did you install VB additions on guest?18:59
ResQuepavlos: yes, using the ISO from vbox menu, should i use the version from ubuntu repos?18:59
BoredDanManright now my kernel is 4.10 i believe18:59
SleakerBoredDanMan: you got the hardware refresh kernel/latest install?19:00
seruyukuakik:  For some reason it loaded a GRUB menu that only has try Ubuntu w/out installing, install Ubuntu, OEM install, check disc for defects..   Sounds like my USB boot?19:00
seruyukuakik:  I might have loaded the boot file from the USB drive.  I'm going back in the BIOS to look to see.19:00
BoredDanManSleaker: Updating now19:01
SleakerBoredDanMan: hmm.. should work out of the box then.19:01
SleakerBoredDanMan: sounds good.19:01
BoredDanManmy bad im on kernel 4.8 not 4.1019:01
pavlosResQue: look in /var/log/ there are some vb log files19:01
SleakerBoredDanMan: if it's available to get, 4.10 has kaby lake support apparently19:02
ResQuepavlos: ok thanks i will do that now19:02
BoredDanManlol im scared everything else is gonna break when i update the kernel19:02
BoredDanManim a linux noob19:02
SleakerBoredDanMan: looks like HWE kernel above 4.8 wont be availablt until next month19:03
jhutchins_wkBoredDanMan: You should be able to boot to the old kernel if the new one doesn't work.19:03
Sleakerso support for your CPU isn't 100% and you may need to wait.19:03
SleakerI'm not sure if anyone else here has dealt with kaby lake support, but I've only poked around with sky lake.19:04
seruyukuakik:   I have FS0 and FS1 in my boot selection menu.    On FSO there is a boot directory, but the only file is BOOTX64.EFI.    When I loaded the FS1 file with the path you gave me that only gave me those options that looked the installer ISO.19:04
Sleakerso can't really help much :-/19:04
akikseruyuku: can you remove the usb stick before booting? why do you keep it connected?19:05
seruyukuakik:  Trying now19:06
BoredDanManIm going to try and install 4.10, hopefully it will work19:07
seruyukuakik:   removed USB and it booted straight into Windows19:07
SleakerBoredDanMan: from where? I didn't see it available yet19:08

BoredDanManSleaker: from the mainline19:09
SleakerBoredDanMan: ?19:09
seruyukuakik:  I will look at the bios again.19:09
BoredDanMani dont think its officially supported on 16.0419:09

ResQuewhere can i find the man or help page for the command "sudo m-a prepare"19:10
SleakerBoredDanMan: if you need newer hardware support either wait till next month, or dist-upgrade/reinstall up to 17.0419:10
Sleaker17.04 has 4.1019:10
BoredDanManreinstalling the OS means ill have to reinstall all the hardware again, yes?19:14
BoredDanManif thats the case maybe ill just wait until next month19:14
Sleakeruhh what do you mean reinstall the hardware?19:14
seruyukuakik:  now my boot option that I added that was taking me to an Ubuntu install GRUB doesn't work.   Because the USB isn't in I assume.19:14
BoredDanMan*software19:14
Sleakerfor the most part installing the OS should have hardware support.19:14
seruyukuakik: Should I try boot-repair?19:14
Sleakeruh you'd need to reselect the packages.19:15
BoredDanMangotchya19:15
SleakerBoredDanMan: the other option is to attempt a dist-upgrade to zesty.19:15
Sleakerthat may be possible.19:15
BoredDanManhmm maybe worth looking into19:16
glitsj16BoredDanMan: follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack to get newer kernels on 16.0419:16
Sleakerglitsj16: not available till August.19:16
Sleakerneeds the kernel/HWE that's currently in zesty.19:16
ozcanesenwhich path do you guys prefer to put ssl certificates? i am not asking how to install, i am asking like /etc/certificates or /home or /var which is better?19:17
glitsj16Sleaker: yes i agree, just offering the supported way to get newer kernels to BoredDanMan19:18
Sleakerglitsj16: yah I suggested that path initially and gave all the options :D19:18
DeeJayhIs there a way to use the ubuntu core without snaps? I used to use the core on minimalist builds to have only what I need/want kind of like a archlinux/gentoo style build if you will19:18
BoredDanManso i guess the real question is, to wait a month or just install zesty19:18
glitsj16Sleaker: than an 'my  apologies and ignore' is in order :)19:18
BoredDanManim a bit new to the Ubuntu community, so i went with the "safe" option of 16.04 LTS support. Any risks i might run into upgrading to zesty?19:19
DeeJayhno more LTS19:19
ioriaBoredDanMan, run zesty in vm .... ?19:20
DeeJayhor run it chrooted19:20
DeeJayhBoredDanMan, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot19:21
seruyukujhutchins_wk:  I tried to run boot-repair but was in legacy mode so it failed.  Now I will try to change BIOS to boot the USB in the correct mode so I can run boot-repair19:22
Sleakerioria: that wont work if he they need hardware support from the updated kernel specifically.19:22
SleakerBoredDanMan: it really depends. for desktop use I don't see much reason on sticking with LTS stuff.19:23
BoredDanManyeah im not running a server or anything19:23
DeeJayh^Sleaker^ Server administration is the big reason for LTS and only on a business level19:23
ioriaBoredDanMan, are you on lts ?19:23
Sleakeryou just don't get extended security update support.19:23
BoredDanManit is my work computer though, so i need it to work and not get a virus19:23
BoredDanMannot that linux viruses are really a thing lmao19:24
SleakerBoredDanMan: the biggest thing is to stay current you'll need to run dist-upgrade basically every 6 months or so19:24
Sleaker'virus' isn't the issue. the issue is having package with remote exploits however rare they might be.19:24
DeeJayhso no one knows about ubuntu core? Is it only snappy now? Is there no way to run with just the ubuntu core?19:24
Sleakerdidn't ubuntu core get scrapped?19:25

nailyklooks like iommu=soft disable the built in chip and use a software management instead.19:48

ResQuecan someone help, i cant tell if virtualbox guest additions have been install successful or not, in vboxadd-install.log there is an error message about "Kernel configuration is invalid." but maybe this is just a check and not a fail.

benccwhat's the correct way to delete a user and his group from the command line20:37
akikbencc: userdel username, add -r to remove the home dir20:37
akikbencc: use groupdel to remove the group if that doesn't remove it20:38
benccthanks20:39
CedaraReinstallation of ubuntu 16.04 on a new motherboard and graphic card. I have put the basic system up and I'm quite sure I installed all updates. It's been a while since I last installed and never before on a uefi board. It's now running on a galium driver and I would like to use the nvidia one. Which of the two is it though?20:40

yorwosi did an installation of ampps which is a software stack for publishing mostly. i didn't really look into it as the guy that proposed it to me was swearing by it. it appears after installing it i can't run electrum (bitcoin wallet) due to qt4 undefined symbols. the issue seems to be pyqt versioning if not more with python and qt4. after this i found out there is no way actual removing or uninstalling ampps. what would u suggest i do ?20:43
glitsj16yorwos: did you follow a guide to install this ampps?20:49
yorwosit was simply executing a .run file for installing it20:50
glitsj16ouch.. those things can be a pain to undo.. do you have a link to it?20:51
yorwoshttp://www.ampps.com/wiki/Installing_AMPPS_on_Linux20:51
glitsj16yorwos: thx, having a look..20:52
[jasper]hej guys, Iḿ trying to make jnlp run with an older java version. I changed the alternatives...but these are like user instead of system settings right?20:52
[jasper]any idea how I can change the system installed version?20:52
ResQuepavlos: everything installed fine, there is still bugs in the log file in the link i sent you before but i dont think these are fatel errors just basic checks done by the installer. anyway thanks for the help the i did what you said and the installer finished. thanks again20:53
glitsj16yorwos: it claims that AMPPS is installed on fixed path /usr/local/ampps .. if that's correct, you can simply remove that dir20:54
yorwosi did rename the directory to ampps.bak to break using any of the inside qt4 files but im still getting the same error messages20:55
glitsj16yorwos: you could run 'sudo updatedb && locate ampps' to check if it dropped something in a different location20:56
=== grumble is now known as gurmble
glitsj16yorwos: and run a 'sudo ldconfig' after removal, that might point electrum back to what it needs instead of what ampps installed.. no guarantees though with these kind of apps, but you know that already20:58
yorwos/sbin/ldconfig.real: File /usr/local/lib/libQtCore.so is empty, not checked. is this normal ?20:58
yorwosmaybe i should do a clean re-install of ubuntu ? its been anyway upgraded from 12.04->14.04->16.04 , keeping the /home partition and formating the rest only should be easy in the livecd yes ?20:59
glitsj16yorwos: no that isn't normal, QtCore from repos would never install something under /usr/local21:00
glitsj16yorwos: that would be the longer route to take, which would work.. but you could try reinstalling qt and electrum also, i think the linker got confused with entrees in /usr/local from ampps21:02
[jasper]hej guys, how do I change the system wide java variables instead of the user variables?21:02
yorwosill try reinstalling them and see how it goes, but im afraid more links might be broken21:02
glitsj16yorwos: probably the best idea in fact, now you're in the dark and that's never a comfortable position to be in21:03
yorwosyea it dont feel right other ways, ill reinstall the os thanx for the help and input21:09
yorwostime for backups hoho21:09

seruyukuHello.   I cannot get my Ubuntu install to boot.   I have installed as a dual boot with Windows10.   I have tried boot-repair.  Still no luck.  Can anyone help?21:09
glitsj16[jasper]: anything under /etc/alternatives is in fact system-wide.. but I'm not sure what you mean by 'java variables'.. Did you use a GUI like galternatives to change defaults? CLI commands?21:12
pavlosResQue: I get the same error, version.h not found but the log continues and at the end creates user for Vbox, etc. Also, after reboot I see some info on dmesg. Glad is working for you.21:16

konradosHi, I have a small issue. Everytime I press "one" on the keyboard I get the grave accent preceding, like this: `1 - what should I do?22:39
konradosI'll try disconnecting the keyboard :)22:41
YankDownUnderKeyboard layout would appear to be incorrect.22:42

konradossame thing:(22:42
konrados`1 YankDownUnder - thanks, but what should I do now?22:42
deeeeenisHi, i have a notebook running ubuntu, bc my internal onboard sd is very small i have a sdcard as /home mp, but after time it goes ro. is there a fix for this ?22:42
konradosreconnecting the keyboard didn't work22:43
Tabmowkonrados, http://www.wikihow.com/Change-Keyboard-Layout-in-Ubuntu22:45
konradosIn the settings -> hardware -> keyboard I have keyboard model: "generic | generic `10`1 key pc""22:45
konradosTabmow, sec22:45
TabmowIt could also be your actual keyboard considering those keys are next to each other.22:46
konradosTabmow, thanks, but my 'system settings' look totally different that the one on the above link, I for one don't have an item like 'text entry'22:47
konradosI have "Keyboard Hardware and Layout" and the list of "layouts" is empty...22:49
dreamon_mpv manual found this → mf://[filemask|@listfile] --mf-...(Play a series of images as video.)22:51
konradoschanging to "generic | generic 104 key pc" didn't work either, nothing works, please ....22:51
[n0mad]konrados: you really should try a different keyboard if all the other keys are responding as you would expect22:52
dreamon_so created a filelist. and wanted to start with "mpv mf://@/tmp/filelist.txt" but fails → Playing: mf://@/tmp/files.txt → [mf] number of files: 022:52
dreamon_I think im doing it wrong22:53
konrados[n0mad], I'm pretty sure I pressed something, i.e. a keyboard shortcut, I was in a hurry... I just changed something and don't know what was it22:53
konradosI'll restart the pc, I'll be back, thanks everyone for the help22:54

opessoaSoft blocked: no23:12
opessoaHard blocked: yes23:12
saryopessoa: hard blocked" means what it says: -hardware- is blocking your wifi. So ... either you have a slider on the side of your notebook or you have a keyboard combination (like Fn F7 Mitch suggested) or you have a BIOS setting where wifi is disabled. As far as I know that are probably all the options. So if the 1st 2 are checked you could check your BIOS.23:14
