| t3kg33k | Greetings all | 00:02 |
| t3kg33k | I'm looking for a php expert. I've install php 5.6 on Ubuntu 16.04. Is there a way to confirm if mbregex is enabled? And, if it is not, how do I enable it? | 00:03 |
| transhuman | hi! is pacmanfan around? | 00:10 |
| Bashing-om | transhuman: Enter into your client pacman<tab> ; if it autocompletes, yes the party is on-line - else not . | 00:13 |
| transhuman | actually I figured he might have changed his handle | 00:17 |
| iCherry | t3kg33k, make sure you have installed the mbsting module (i believe mbregex is part of it), $ sudo apt-get install php-mbstring | 00:18 |
| transhuman | perhaps it might now be pacbard | 00:18 |
| t3kg33k | iCherry I did install that module. So, mbregex is enabled by default when that module is installed? | 00:19 |
| iCherry | t3kg33k, are you running this within a webserver like apache, or cli? | 00:19 |
| t3kg33k | yes, apache | 00:19 |
| iCherry | did you also install the apache php lib? | 00:20 |
| iCherry | $ sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php | 00:21 |
| t3kg33k | I don't think so. I installed apache, then installed php 5.6 with modules | 00:21 |
| iCherry | libapache2-mod-php has the mbstring module built in | 00:22 |
| t3kg33k | it looks as if I did install it | 00:22 |
| iCherry | you can test if php works by doing the following: | 00:23 |
| t3kg33k | iCherry, thanks a lot | 00:23 |
| iCherry | echo "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" > /var/www/html/index.php | 00:23 |
| t3kg33k | I created a phpinfo file and it shows all the information | 00:23 |
| t3kg33k | yep | 00:23 |
| iCherry | that is the default document root for apache | 00:23 |
| t3kg33k | I see the mbstring module, I just couldn't see the mbregex | 00:24 |
| iCherry | mbregex is part of mbstring | 00:24 |
| iCherry | you could also try this: | 00:24 |
| iCherry | <?php if (extension_loaded('mbstring')) { echo "loaded"; }else{echo "not loaded"} ?> | 00:25 |
| t3kg33k | iCherry From command line? Or, do I just add that to the php info file? | 00:26 |
| iCherry | add it to a .php file | 00:26 |
| iCherry | then go to the website and check if it works | 00:27 |
| t3kg33k | iCherry the page does not load from that new file | 00:30 |
| iCherry | oh sorry, my bad, try this: | 00:31 |
| iCherry | <?php if (extension_loaded('mbstring')) { echo "loaded"; }else{echo "not loaded";} ?> | 00:31 |
| t3kg33k | iCherry That worked. Thanks. Output is 'loaded' | 00:32 |
| iCherry | t3kg33k, no problem | 00:33 |

| arooni | every now and then after 20 min or so; my ubuntu 16.04 laptop drops my bluetooth connection to my headphones and i have to reconnect | 01:06 |
| arooni | is this a known problem/ | 01:06 |
| apn | arooni, sounds like a power saving feature is causing it. | 01:10 |
| eremita | helo I'm having trouble with my wifi. It's a ralink board. Anyone can telme a good wifi board that works fine in ubuntu? | 01:12 |
| eremita | i'm using ubuntu 16.04 | 01:12 |
| apn | eremita, generally, anything with intel is well supported in Linux. Most of Atheros as well. Here is the support status for different ones: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers | 01:14 |
| eremita | apn: thanks | 01:15 |
| arooni | apn: way to disable that? | 01:22 |
| apn | arooni, kind of. You will have to find out if it's bluetooth device, or port (like USB for instance) power management that does it. Then you can go to /sys to check power setting (/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:00.0/power for instance) and change it from auto to on. | 01:28 |
| apn | arooni, or you can use a tool like powertop to see if it can see it in tweaks. | 01:28 |

| nathani | what causes this error when restarting a network device: RTNETLINK answers: File exists | 02:36 |
| kenrin | Don't use multiple default gateways | 02:37 |
| kenrin | If you need to use a secondary gateway use a static route and you won't get that error. Make sure only one is in the interfaces file | 02:39 |
| nathani | https://gist.github.com/mnathani/b2c682a497406cd765b068134263468a | 02:42 |
| nathani | thats my /etc/network/interfaces | 02:42 |
| kenrin | Ah ok, that is just the most common reason for it. Possibly the interface can't be stopped when it does the restart for some reason | 02:43 |
| kenrin | If it detects it already up it will give that error as duplicate | 02:44 |
| Geo | ok, silly question... is there a simple calculator GUI I can install in ubuntu? similar to the microsoft one, I just type calc in the command box and it pops up, nothing fancy... | 02:45 |
| nathani | root@water:~# ifdown ens160 && ifup ens160 | 02:45 |
| nathani | ifdown: interface ens160 not configured | 02:45 |
| nathani | RTNETLINK answers: File exists | 02:45 |
| nathani | Failed to bring up ens160. | 02:45 |
| nathani | so, I should reboot? | 02:46 |
| kenrin | Does it give the same error when you use the new IP tool ? | 02:47 |
| kenrin | the nettools will be deprecated eventually | 02:47 |
| nathani | what new IP tool? | 02:47 |
| kenrin | ip | 02:47 |
| kenrin | as in: ip link set dev ens160 down | 02:47 |
| nathani | whats a sample command | 02:47 |
| nathani | ip link set dev ens160 down && ip link set dev ens160 up | 02:47 |
| nathani | like that? | 02:47 |

| ghostinzshell | What does Ubuntu do to allow udisksctl to mount block devices without prompting for authentication? I'm trying to replicate the same thing on Debian Stretch. | 03:45 |
| jerknextdoor | Upgraded my Dell XPS 15 from 16.04 to 17.04 over the weekend. After the first restart it goes to a black screen with '/dev/sda1 clean ####/##### blocks'. The OS is started in the background since I can ssh into the box, but something is going on with X or a driver I think. I've tried installing, removing, and every combination of driver possible. I finally gave up this afternoon and upgraded to 17.10 hoping that would get me some | 03:52 |
| jerknextdoor | I can successfully boot to the console, but am unable to `startx`. I'm out of ideas so any advice is appreciated. | 03:52 |
| senaps | hi, support for ubuntu 16.10 was ended two night a go, and now i want to upgrade to 17.04. using sudo apt dist-upgrade... it says nothing is there to update! sudo apt do-release-upgrade shows No new release found! | 03:52 |
| senaps | what should i do now? | 03:52 |
| jerknextdoor | senaps: `sudo do-release-upgrade -d` | 03:54 |
| jerknextdoor | senaps: sorry, `sudo do-release-upgrade` no need for the `-d`. | 03:54 |
| senaps | yup that throws a no new release found too :( | 03:55 |
| jerknextdoor | senaps: open up Software & Updates. Under the `updates` tab select `notify me of new ubunt version:` and set it to `for any new version`. that should do it. | 03:56 |
| senaps | jerknextdoor: i have done that too! its on any new version. it prompted me 2 nights ago for a upgrade but i didn't have a stable connection so i clicked on tell me later! now it's not upgrading or showing the need for upgrade:( | 03:58 |
| snowkidind | if i only wanted to accept incoming ssh connections from other computers within my network and not outside of my router, is there a way I can enforce that on ubuntu? | 04:23 |
| ghostinzshell | snowkidind: You can try setting the listen address to be your local subnet. | 04:25 |
| ghostinzshell | snowkidind: Or you can configure the firewall to just allow connections to your machine from your local subnet. | 04:25 |
| snowkidind | oh ok | 04:25 |
| snowkidind | thanks ill dig a bit | 04:26 |
| campitor | hello everyone | 04:49 |
| campitor | I think I messed up my dns settings, I can't lookup anything | 04:50 |
| campitor | how can I reset it to default? | 04:50 |
| campitor | neither nslokup nor other internet applications work. nslookup server 8.8.8.8 works | 04:50 |
| campitor | also server 127.0.0.1 (dnscrypt) works just fine | 04:50 |
| campitor | but other than that nothing else works out side of nslookup | 04:51 |
| campitor | help please | 04:51 |
| Ben64 | campitor: well what did you do to cause the problem | 04:53 |
| Moondhum | Hello, I did a minimal install on my laptop. My integrated webcam doesn't seem to work. I have installed 'libv4l-0' and here is my demsg https://paste.debian.net/978006/ Also I don't have /dev/video present. | 04:53 |
| campitor | Ben64 : it is the funny part, I really don't know what got me here. | 04:53 |
| === Jochen_wvdT is now known as Schlawiner | ||
| campitor | nope not working still | 05:02 |
| campitor | how can i force the whole os to only and only do ns lookup on 127.0.0.1:53 ? | 05:02 |
| campitor | and no where else? | 05:02 |
| Ben64 | campitor: you should really try to remember what you did | 05:03 |
| campitor | i really only set the dns setting for ethernet connection, nothing else | 05:04 |
| Ben64 | so unset that | 05:05 |
| campitor | i don't know why the system is persistent on usin 127.0.1.1:53 (Bind if I am not mistkaen) eventhough I am telling it to go for 127.0.0.1 | 05:05 |
| Ben64 | theres no difference between 127.0.1.1 and 127.0.0.1 | 05:05 |
| campitor | ok,, if no diff, why nslookup on server 127.0.1.1 times out, but it answers perfectly on 127.0.0.1 | 05:06 |
| campitor | it really doesn't work on 127.0.1.1 !!!! | 05:06 |
| Ben64 | you're going about this all wrong | 05:06 |
| campitor | how? | 05:06 |
| Ben64 | just unset the dns | 05:07 |
| campitor | clear the settings? | 05:07 |
| campitor | all of them? | 05:07 |
| Ben64 | yep | 05:07 |
| campitor | and it will lookup on my 127.0.0.1:53 ? auto? | 05:07 |
| campitor | ok | 05:07 |
| campitor | let me go for it | 05:07 |
| campitor | with no dns set for ethernet: server can't find www.google.com: REFUSED | 05:08 |
| campitor | !!! | 05:08 |
| Ben64 | now reboot | 05:08 |
| campitor | ok | 05:08 |
| campitor | 89ANI567 | 05:09 |
| campitor | oops wrong place for BIOS pass | 05:10 |
| campitor | LOL | 05:10 |
| campitor | Ben64 : Ben my man, now server 127.0.0.1 > www.google.com results in server can't find www.google.com: SERVFAIL | 05:14 |
| campitor | !! | 05:14 |
| campitor | yet dnscrypt-proxy reports successful proxying to the dnscrypt server | 05:14 |
| campitor | did I mess something up or is this normal | 05:15 |
| campitor | yeap working now | 05:15 |
| campitor | wrong server chosen | 05:15 |
| Ben64 | campitor: if you're going to pick a dns server, pick an actual dns server | 05:16 |
| campitor | what do you mean? | 05:16 |
| campitor | actual? | 05:16 |
| campitor | dnscrypt is pretty good, no? | 05:16 |
| Ben64 | oh dnscrypt | 05:17 |
| campitor | cause without it, I think anyone can easily send me to www.letmehackyou.com instead of www.google.com | 05:17 |
| Ben64 | not really | 05:17 |
| campitor | not just my isp, any one with access to my traffic | 05:17 |
| campitor | why not? | 05:18 |
| Ben64 | ssl | 05:18 |
| campitor | well, yes, google was just an example, even though stealing ssl certs from some websites is not that hard, to make a copy of them. but this is super easy to copy a site with no ssl | 05:19 |
| campitor | am i right? | 05:19 |
| campitor | most of ubuntu update servers use no ssl | 05:19 |
| campitor | for obvious reasons | 05:19 |
| campitor | I know there are signatures and certs in place | 05:20 |
| campitor | but still, if someone has the sigs and the keys, they might give you a faulty update | 05:20 |
| campitor | no? | 05:20 |
| campitor | YEAP WORKING LIKE A CHARM, thanks Ben64 | 05:22 |
| campitor | you awesome | 05:22 |

| Mittens007 | hi guys | 06:43 |
| Mittens007 | I am trying to start using ubuntu | 06:43 |
| Mittens007 | I have a HP laptop and was advised to get a 128gb flash drive and boot the ubuntu from the usb | 06:44 |
| Mittens007 | someone mentioned that I would need empty "dvd" disk drives or something along with the usb | 06:44 |
| Mittens007 | any idea what they are talking abou? | 06:44 |
| Mittens007 | about? | 06:44 |
| jink | USB-stick with 128GB capacity. Install Ubuntu on it. Boot from it. | 06:46 |
| Mittens007 | jink! so I don't need to order anything other than the USB 128GB flash drive? | 06:46 |
| jink | Order? | 06:46 |
| Mittens007 | yes, they told me to order a USB flash drive | 06:47 |
| jink | "they" ? | 06:47 |
| Mittens007 | yes I was trying to get support from some people who already use ubuntu | 06:47 |
| Mittens007 | but lost communication | 06:47 |
| Mittens007 | and found this channel | 06:48 |
| Mittens007 | #ketocaht | 06:48 |

| === Mittens007 is now known as Mittens | ||
| jink | If you want to try it out, using a USB-stick is a good option. If you want to install it, you can go with USB or DVD, whatever works for you. | 06:49 |
| Mittens | jink: ohhh so I don't need that DVD thing whatever that is | 06:50 |
| Mittens | jink: just use the USB stick for now okay? | 06:50 |

| Kingsy | Can someone think of a cursor size config I am missing.. I have changed the cursor size in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini and in ~/.Xresources where else would I have to change? I am getting a very large cursor in a few different applications.. one QT application for example. | 10:01 |
| oerheks | Kingsy, only certain cursos sizes are accepted, see this answer of dobey > "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-size 48" https://askubuntu.com/questions/682641/change-mouse-pointer-size-in-ubuntu-15-04 | 10:05 |
| oerheks | if that does not work, check out the theme installed?? those can be nasty too | 10:05 |
| oerheks | e.g. with unity-tweak-tool | 10:05 |
| Kingsy | well I am using openbox | 10:06 |
| Kingsy | oerheks: if I use gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-size 48 it does absolutely nothing.. | 10:06 |
| oerheks | maybe you need to logout/login again to take effect, i have no clue with openbox themes | 10:08 |
| Kingsy | oerheks: I am using lxappearance to set the cursor theme.. and I have tried alot of different ones | 10:08 |
| Kingsy | oerheks: no luck either. | 10:09 |
| Kingsy | let me try one more time | 10:09 |
| Kingsy | naa no good | 10:11 |
| Kingsy | its just so erratic | 10:11 |
| oerheks | :-( | 10:11 |
| Kingsy | now its huge in xfce-terminal | 10:11 |
| Kingsy | (I changed the cursor theme in lxappearance) then logged oput and back in again | 10:11 |
| oerheks | huge... 48 is huge indeed | 10:12 |
| Kingsy | ok adding 16 to ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini fixed xfce-terminal and chrome | 10:14 |
| oerheks | oke, you determined the right config. | 10:15 |
| oerheks | for the user, that is | 10:16 |
| Kingsy | well for xfce-terminal and chrome yes | 10:16 |
| Kingsy | but phpstorm for exampel is still shwoing a big big cursor | 10:16 |
| Kingsy | is there a settings.ini system wide? or another config I don't know about? | 10:16 |
| oerheks | not in the /home/ folders, that would be in /usr/share/themes/ and /usr/share/icons/ | 10:18 |
| Kingsy | well those are the actual theme folders.. | 10:19 |
| Kingsy | the index.theme files don't contain anything about cursor size | 10:20 |
| Durgeoble | hi | 10:20 |
| Kingsy | they just style the cursor right? | 10:20 |
| oerheks | hmm yes, no settings there in a file, you would need dconf for that | 10:23 |
| Kingsy | I checked dconf | 10:24 |
| Kingsy | I couldnt see any settings for cursor size on there at all | 10:25 |
| Kingsy | unless I am being blind | 10:25 |
| Kingsy | nothing under unity of course.. given I am not using unity | 10:26 |
| oerheks | that is where we started with, org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-size 48 | 10:26 |
| oerheks | but this theme and cursor thing is a mystery to me too | 10:27 |
| Kingsy | the cursor size is set to 16 on dconf. | 10:27 |
| Kingsy | the cursor theme is wrong... | 10:27 |
| Kingsy | ok corrected that but know that isnt going to make a differenc.e | 10:29 |
| Kingsy | hehe crazy to spend over a day trying to fix a cursor size | 10:29 |
| Mittens | it's a link | 10:29 |
| Mittens | woops wrong window | 10:30 |
| Kingsy | hehe damn I thought we had another chipping in :P | 10:30 |
| Kingsy | need all the help I can get at this point | 10:30 |
| vlt | Hello. Around every six or eight weeks our Ubuntu 16.04 LTS xrdp servers stop listening to port 3389 and no more logins are possible while all the old sessions are still running. | 10:42 |
| vlt | What could cause this? | 10:43 |
| vlt | Is there an internal "counter" that overflows after a certain amoutn of logins? | 10:43 |
| vlt | And how can I "refresh" xrdp without having to destroy all the old sessions? | 10:43 |
| vlt | old = currently running | 10:43 |
| oerheks | vlt, in the /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini perhaps, tcp_keepalive=[true|false] >> http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man5/xrdp.ini.5.html | 10:50 |
| oerheks | one should destroy old sessions, they seem to be not-properly-closed | 10:51 |
| Kingsy | swear to god.. hahaha I am going to throw my computer out the windopw :P | 10:52 |
| tomreyn | vlt: if there was an internal counter which overflowsand someone here knows about it then it would likely be a known and reported bug in this soiftware, one you could search the web for. you're basically asking whether the unexpected functionality in a specific software is a bug. since you asked this before (i think several times actually?) and no one happened to know about this specific behaviour, it's quiote unlikely you'll rub into someone on | 10:54 |
| tomreyn | this linux distribution channel whoo knows this specific software's source code well enough to tell whether its a bug or intended behaviour. | 10:54 |
| tomreyn | *rub -> run | 10:54 |
| tomreyn | in fact i saw you post this question a couple times, people responded (mentioning your nickname) and you went silent. | 10:55 |
| oerheks | if you specify the port static, you would reuse the old rdp session, it says https://askubuntu.com/questions/133343/how-do-i-set-up-xrdp-session-that-reuses-an-existing-session | 10:55 |

| sebsebseb | hi | 11:10 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: I came in after you stated your cursor issue, so I don't know what the actual problem is, but if the box isn't out of the window yet, you could go over https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cursor_themes to check if you missed something | 11:13 |
| qswz | I also came | 11:16 |
| _8bits | What desktop tweaker are you using guys at the moment? | 11:22 |
| * qswz is on lubuntu | 11:23 | |
| oerheks | useless to poll, _8bits, unity-tweak-tool for unity, gnome-tweak-tool for gnome3 etc etc | 11:23 |
| qswz | well I'm off before being molested | 11:23 |
| Kingsy | glitsj16: yeah I have been through that wiki a few times. | 11:23 |
| Kingsy | cant spot anything I havnt tried | 11:23 |
| qswz | LxQT is going to be great | 11:23 |
| oerheks | qswz, yes, waiting for 17.10 ... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/LXQt | 11:24 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: what cursor theme are you having trouble with? | 11:25 |
| Kingsy | glitsj16: all of them | 11:26 |
| qswz | yep | 11:26 |
| Kingsy | glitsj16: so the problem is on certain applications sucjh as keepassx or phpstorm the cursor is massive.. i'd say 3 times as big as it is when hovered over regular windows | 11:27 |
| Kingsy | this seems to be regardless of what cursor theme I have set. I am using lxappearance to set the theme (cursor and desktop) and I have openbox as my WM | 11:28 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: have you specified Xcursor.size in ~/.Xresources? | 11:29 |
| Kingsy | yes I have Xcursor.size: 16 | 11:30 |
| Kingsy | thats the only thing in that file mind | 11:30 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: you'd need to put in the theme you use as well in that file, Xcursor.theme:foo | 11:31 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: use the exact same name you see in /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme on the inherits line | 11:32 |
| Kingsy | ok done | 11:34 |
| Kingsy | I will log out and back ina gain | 11:34 |
| Kingsy | glitsj16: ok I think this is the issue. On lxappearance the cursor theme I have selected is called "moblin" however that is not the cursor theme that is applied. | 11:35 |
| Kingsy | also the issue still remains. the cursor is huge on certain windows | 11:36 |
| Kingsy | so somehow lxappearance isnt actually changing the cursor theme. | 11:36 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: what is set in /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme? not 'moblin'? | 11:36 |
| Kingsy | surely its not waiting for a cold reboot ? | 11:36 |
| Kingsy | it is yes Inherits=moblin | 11:37 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: that would be odd, a re-login should do it | 11:37 |
| Kingsy | yeah just did that. | 11:37 |
| Kingsy | its so so strange. | 11:37 |
| Kingsy | its like I have some serious misconfig somewhere. | 11:37 |
| Kingsy | I wish I could just scrap it all and return to default somehow. | 11:37 |
| glitsj16 | maybe you could, i'm not familiar with lxappearance, no reset to default option? | 11:38 |
| Kingsy | no :( | 11:38 |
| Kingsy | I also find it strasnge having to do this at all.. I have been using openbox for years and never had this issue | 11:40 |
| mzaza | Can I create an SSH account that can run certain commands only, with no write permissions? | 11:41 |
| Kingsy | lxappearance also doesnt seem to be editing /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme its not changing when I change the cursor themem | 11:41 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: do you have a symlink to the moblin theme in ~/.icons/default? | 11:42 |
| Kingsy | no index.theme is just a file owned by root. perhaps I should delete it | 11:42 |
| Kingsy | see if lxappearance makes one for me | 11:42 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: i'm looking at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=97229 | 11:43 |
| warri0rr | mzaza: sure | 11:43 |
| warri0rr | mzaza: that's why the execution bit and write bit are different | 11:43 |
| Kingsy | oh I lie --> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Mar 7 16:49 index.theme -> /etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme | 11:44 |
| mzaza | warri0rr: I have a directory and files owned to user 'ubuntu' I want user 'dummy' to be able to run php artisan commands in the same directory but not write to any files. | 11:45 |
| mzaza | warri0rr: Would you recommend using the default method for jailing SSH user or use Jailkit? | 11:46 |
| Kingsy | right I will update that via --> sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme | 11:46 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: i forgot about the alternatives, if it isn't already complex enough lol | 11:46 |
| ppf | why are there no package contents available at https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/llvm-3.9 ? | 11:47 |
| glitsj16 | ppf: there are, you need to follow the link at the bottom for your architecture --> list of files | 11:48 |
| oerheks | ppf, always check the updates- part https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial-updates/llvm-3.9 | 11:50 |
| oerheks | it will give hte list of files, not the packages itself | 11:50 |
| ppf | oerheks: thanks! | 11:52 |
| Kingsy | glitsj16: tell me about it | 11:52 |
| ppf | so, essentially, xenial knows the package exists, but only xenial-updates has the contents? | 11:52 |
| Kingsy | glitsj16: I fixed it!!!!! | 11:55 |
| Kingsy | but I have no idea how...... :S | 11:56 |
| Kingsy | haha | 11:56 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: haha, well, make a backup now you have it as you prefer | 11:56 |
| oerheks | ppf, when xenial was released, it used llvm 3.8 iirc, so that is why there are no packageslists there i guess | 11:56 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy folks | 11:57 |
| glitsj16 | hello BluesKaj | 11:57 |
| oerheks | that is why you always should look in updates on launchpad | 11:57 |
| ppf | oerheks: sounds alright | 11:57 |
| BluesKaj | hi glitsj16 | 11:58 |
| Kingsy | glitsj16: I reverted everyhting to core | 11:58 |
| Kingsy | so its not running a theme. | 11:58 |
| Kingsy | but at least it works | 11:58 |
| Kingsy | totally right I will make a backup | 11:58 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: nice catch, incredible how hard cursor themes are, i've had similar issues in other desktop environments | 11:59 |
| Kingsy | haha yeah. and also how ANNOYING it is when you have a cursor thats 3 times too big | 12:00 |
| Kingsy | :P | 12:00 |
| Kingsy | glitsj16: thankyou for your help! | 12:01 |
| glitsj16 | Kingsy: no trouble, i just happenend to keep you motivated to try without throwing your box on to the pavement :p | 12:02 |
| vlt | oerheks: Thank you. The tcp_keepalive setting seems to be newer than in current LTS and I don't know exactly what it does. | 12:02 |
| Kingsy | haha yujp | 12:02 |
| Kingsy | I was on the cerge | 12:02 |
| Kingsy | verge* | 12:03 |
| vlt | tomreyn: Hi! Yes, I asked here a couple of times before. Propably every six to eight weeks when it happened again ;-) I'll try to search the logs for an answer I might have missed. Thank you :-) | 12:05 |
| vlt | oerheks: What does "one should destroy old sessions" mean? My "old sessions" are sessions people currently work in without problems. Or did you mean TCP session (if there's such a thing)? | 12:07 |
| oerheks | old sessions as in your old session when it broke off without a kill signal. | 12:08 |

| necrophcodr | is this the right place to ask questions about using multistrap for ubuntu? | 12:09 |
| oerheks | necrophcodr, sure, ask wait and see. | 12:12 |
| oerheks | never used it myself, though | 12:13 |
| necrophcodr | I'm using multistrap with this configuration: https://browse.dgit.debian.org/multistrap.git/tree/examples/trusty.conf?id=debian/2.2.8 | 12:17 |
| necrophcodr | but it's simply getting stuck on | 12:18 |
| necrophcodr | Setting up libselinux1:amd64 (2.2.2-1) ... | 12:18 |
| necrophcodr | Does anyone know how to get past this? Or how to troubleshoot it? | 12:18 |
| necrophcodr | I'm running it like this: | 12:18 |
| necrophcodr | fakechroot fakeroot perl multistrap -f multistrap.conf -d . | 12:19 |
| oerheks | selinux is not installed or enabled by default. We use apparmor by default. | 12:28 |
| vlt | oerheks: But (I think) I don't have any old sessions around everytime that happens. Any idea how to find out? | 12:28 |
| oerheks | but if you want to, you can .. https://askubuntu.com/questions/481293/selinux-implementation-in-ubuntu | 12:28 |
| necrophcodr | oerheks, i'm not asking for it to be installed either. does debian use selinux by default perhaps? | 12:29 |
| necrophcodr | it's a dependency that's being pulled somehow. | 12:29 |
| oerheks | necrophcodr, could well be, yes | 12:29 |
| oerheks | vlt, your problem was a xrdp service crashing, not accepting new connections, so it is hard to find out why with such little info, one issue could be ports in use, and hardcoding the port, could fix that | 12:30 |
| vlt | oerheks: Ah, I see ... thanks! | 12:31 |
| necrophcodr | it appears that it _does_ have it compiled in and depends upon it by default, even though it isn't enabled. | 12:35 |
| necrophcodr | i guess i'll have to find a workaround somehow. | 12:35 |
| necrophcodr | i could've sworn this wasn't a problem a couple months ago though | 12:36 |
| arunangshu | how to delete Google Drive Ocamlfuse from my device | 12:57 |
| tomreyn | how did you install it? | 12:58 |
| vlt | tomreyn: Hmmm ... unforunately in my logfiles I can't find a single answer to my xrdp problem I didn't answer. Can you point me to one? I really might have missed that then. | 12:58 |
| tomreyn | vlt: i'm not sure whether it logs to., i would check xorg.*.log*, syslog and dmesg at least. | 12:59 |
| vlt | tomreyn: Oh sorry, I referred to my *irc* logfiles. | 13:00 |
| vlt | tomreyn: Nothing in xorg.log (as X isn't involved at all here), nothing suspicious in syslog/dmesg or xrdp's sesman.log | 13:01 |
| tomreyn | vlt: one of the questions i asked you one of the lprevious times you asked your question is (roughly) "what's in your log files?" | 13:01 |
| tomreyn | have you tried to increase logging verbosity / enabling debug logging? | 13:02 |
| vlt | tomreyn: Not yet. I'll find out where to set that. Thanks! | 13:06 |
| tomreyn | apparently xrdp and sesman each have their own logging configurations. you may need to modifiy both | 13:06 |
| vlt | tomreyn: Is this also you? 2017-06-17 16:34:53 rictaslix vlt: Have you checked your xrdp logs? | 13:06 |
| tomreyn | whats the error message when a client tries to connect? can you connect to the srdp server port using netcat still? | 13:06 |
| tomreyn | vlt: thats not me | 13:07 |
| vlt | tomreyn: Ok, then I'm sorry for not having replied to you. (I suspect a netsplit because there's absolutely nothing in my own irc logs.) | 13:08 |
| * vlt checks how to increase logging verbosity | 13:08 | |
| tomreyn | vlt: it is possible that someone else asked what i meant to ask and since you never responded did not actually ask more questions, sorry if that's so, can't find it on irclogs.ubuntu.com using a web search either. | 13:09 |
| tomreyn | anyways, looking forwards, the generic approach to find out why some service is not working is: get textual error messages and check the web for any of these, possibly combined with a generic descritption of this issue; check log files; increase log file verbosity, reproduce the issue, check log files; maybe try a newer version; run service through gdb, get backtrace by the time things fail, pass it to the software developers, ask for more | 13:12 |
| tomreyn | instructions. | 13:12 |
| tomreyn | that's not exactly applicable in all cases, but should usually work | 13:13 |
| tomreyn | vlt: ^ | 13:13 |
| vlt | tomreyn: Looking backwards for a last time: I hope I don't give the impression that I just want to demonstrate how wrong you are ;-) I was just deperately trying to find an answer in the irc logs I might have missed. I really appreciate your help! | 13:15 |
| * vlt increases logging (but also fires up standby xrdp servers to take over when this happens again in around six weeks :-D) | 13:17 | |
| tomreyn | vlt: it's fine, it's just generally (i can't verify whether this was the case here) a little frustrating when you respond to people's questions and they never get back to you on it, then repost the same message again later. | 13:21 |
| tomreyn | but i appreciate the energy you put into ruling this out. | 13:21 |
| tomreyn | vlt: (only) if any of the xrdp / sesman processes actually fail (segfault) you should be able to capture core files (by default those are not written to disk but piped into apport). if you have debug symbols installed you'll be able to gather 'meaningfuly' core files which you can use to generate a backtrace of the crash which can be useful to the software developers as well as the ubuntu package maintainers in identifying the malfunction. | 13:26 |
| tomreyn | but indeed look into better logging first of all | 13:29 |
| vlt | tomreyn: My current check if everything is fine is a `watch "netsat -tulpen | grep 3389"` :-D Because everytime that problem occurs the process still is running (as well as the sessions of the already logged in users) but it stops listening to tcp 3389. And you're right: that's not a real _crash_ :-/ | 13:32 |

| tomreyn | sorry trijntje_ this wasnt for you | 13:44 |
| tomreyn | arunangshu: are you aware that PPAs are not supported? this article seems to miss this information. | 13:45 |
| tomreyn | arunangshu: this said, you may be able to uninstall it using: sudo ppa-purge ppa:alessandro-strada/ppa | 13:45 |
| tomreyn | vlt: lsof allows you to specify the specific port you want to look for, whereas the netstat + grep is very error prone | 13:46 |
| tomreyn | vlt: so connections remain in established state on the server whereas the client has since disconnected. this could be due to a software bug, or due to incorrect firewall configurations. | 13:48 |

| vlt | tomreyn: I think I found the reason for the reaminig connections. Because there's no "shutdown client pc" button on the xrdp login screen users just switch off their client. The xfreerdp process there has no chance to properly close the connection. BUT: The next time someone uses this client, a new ESTABLISHED connection appears in lsof's output. No duplicates for client IP addresses. I don't suspect this as | 14:02 |
| vlt | a cause (for now). | 14:02 |
| vlt | *remaining | 14:02 |
| * vlt checks lsof on a machine with 30+ days uptime | 14:05 | |
| tomreyn | vlt: i think that's what oerheks discussed earlier | 14:05 |
| vlt | Bingo! | 14:07 |
| vlt | There's a machine with 20+ ESTABLISHED connections to the very same IP address. | 14:08 |

| ubottu | pankaj: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 16:09 |

| oerheks | 16.04 / systemd uses systemctl to change runlevel https://askubuntu.com/questions/788323/change-runlevel-on-16-04 | 16:15 |

| oerheks | pankaj, no | 16:20 |
| tomreyn | devster31: a gui providing what? | 16:20 |
| pankaj | oerheks: So, where is the file in ubuntu stored where I can change the runlevel. I do not want to change anything. Just see and confirm. | 16:20 |
| devster31 | tomreyn administration functionalities for ZFS similar to FreeNAS, it is the freeNAS page | 16:21 |
| oerheks | if you type 'runlevel' you get the answer | 16:21 |
| oerheks | again: where runlevel is stored, i guess in memory, on disk there are only scripts. | 16:21 |
| oerheks | devster31, freenas itself comes with a webgui | 16:22 |
| tomreyn | devster31: alright, i'm not aware of a ZFS administration GUI for ubuntu, but that does not mean anythnig, i never looked for one. | 16:22 |
| devster31 | oerheks yes, I know, but it's not linux, it's based on FreeBSD, and I don't really want that | 16:23 |
| devster31 | I was trying to replicate at least part of it on Ubuntu, the page I linked seemed like a good resource | 16:24 |
| pankaj | oerheks: No, Sorry but I was talking about the text file where runlevel value is stored. | 16:24 |
| oerheks | pankaj, there is no such file AFAIK | 16:24 |

| illmatix | yeah that's what i'm seeing on that page too. Not sure why my local updates and cache checks only list the other version | 16:45 |
| oerheks | did you run sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade # this might help | 16:45 |
| illmatix | hrm.. full-upgrade vs upgrade? | 16:46 |
| oerheks | if you run it, you still need to confirm, but it gives a list what might be held back | 16:46 |
| oerheks | newer kernel? | 16:46 |
| illmatix | lol nothing. | 16:46 |
| tomreyn | xenial comes with libc6 2.23 by default., if you have an older version currently it suggests a failed distribution upgrade or manually installed packages | 16:47 |
| illmatix | oh actually, i must be on trusty so that's 14.04? | 16:48 |
| oerheks | aii good find, tomreyn | 16:48 |
| tomreyn | what does this give? dpkg -l libc6; lsb_release -sd | 16:48 |

It seems to be related to our cron.daily being run, although there is nothing present in that folder.

For example I have one server with over 400 | 17:44 |

| pankaj | I know that I did something stupid. I was running ubuntu server in vmware and changes /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf file's default runlevel to 0. ANd now my ubuntu server starts but do not start as was expected. Is their any solution for this? | 18:17 |

| Bashing-om | Bundestrojaner: It just looks related . could be . Be a good thing though to do the symlinks anyway . A pain to keep current . | 18:22 |
| Bundestrojaner | Bashing-om: i'm just reading, but how is it related? i don't get errors at installing, i have random freezes of my system | 18:22 |
| Bashing-om | Bundestrojaner: Freezes are tough to identify . As is now maybe binaries won't know where to find their library files ? | 18:24 |
| Bundestrojaner | Bashing-om: The error in syslog is: "NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 79, GPU has fallen off the bus.", doesn't look like a symlink-problem for me | 18:25 |

| th0r | Bashing-om, I bet the pastebin doesn't show | 19:15 |

| wooster | hello i could use some help... i am running ubuntu in vmware. i have open-vm-tools etc installed. the tools work if i'm in unity, but if i switch WMs (to spectrwm) then the usual tools and stuff like resizing the window don't work right | 19:39 |
| wooster | any idea what that's about? | 19:39 |
| thebwt | I don't know at all, but my hunch leans towards it only works with gnome based WMs. | 19:44 |
| MikeSee | If I have three cronjobs that all run at the same time, say * * * * *; will they be run in any particular order by crond, or just in the order they are in the crontab? | 19:45 |
| wooster | yeah i don't doubt gnome is involved somehow | 19:46 |
| wooster | but i don't know how to proceed | 19:46 |

| balooo | Hi, I'm having serious problems after upgrading the kernal to 4.10.0-27-generic. You can see the problem by installing Docker version 1.12.6. and doing `docker run phusion/baseimage sleep 10000`. After doing this, any attempt to cat/modify the `/etc/crontab` file in the container causes the system to hang. Every attempt to run cron.hourly, causes more and more uninteruptable process that cannot be cleaned up. This prevents docker from being able to | 19:49 |
| balooo | do docker stop/kill. | 19:49 |
| balooo | Anyhelp, advice would be hugely appreciated. Doing this exact same thing on kernel 4.4 works without any problems. We've seen this across about 100 nodes, so it's pretty consistent. | 19:50 |
| pankaj | Where are ubuntu log files stored. I checked /etc/syslog.conf file but it was not there? | 19:51 |
| balooo | In /var/log ? Is that what you mean? | 19:52 |
| polyarchive_ | hi folks, i am wondering if there is a way to fix a locked logon screen via the tty terminal? | 19:52 |
| polyarchive_ | this only happens sometimes when i wake the computer from sleeping, that the login ox won't appear | 19:53 |
| polyarchive_ | using linux mint cinnamon | 19:53 |
| tomreyn | !mint | polyarchive_ | 19:53 |
| ubottu | polyarchive_: 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) | 19:53 |
| polyarchive_ | i was in the linux mint channel but they referred me here | 19:54 |
| balooo | tomreyn: I'm using ubuntu ubuntu :) | 19:54 |

| tomreyn | pankaj: the default system logging daemon on ubuntu is rsyslog, its configuration is stored in /etc/rsyslog* | 19:54 |
| pankaj | balooo: I mean /var/log/syslog.conf | 19:54 |
| balooo | any ideas, why 4.10.0-27 kernel might be causing cron to go crazy in containers ? :) | 19:55 |
| soee | hi, what is the proper way to get Firefox Devepoper Edition on Ubuntu ? | 19:55 |
| genii | polyarchive_: Were you on the spotchat network mint channel, or the one here on freenode? | 19:55 |
| genii | ( because spotchat is the official one) | 19:55 |
| polyarchive_ | spotchat | 19:55 |
| balooo | Actually, maybe a more useful question for here is, is there a guide/instructions I can read to learn how to downgrade the kernel from 4.10 to 4.8 | 19:56 |
| tomreyn | balooo: the most relevant thing i know about docker is that i dont want to use it | 19:56 |
| balooo | do you know anything about downgrading :) | 19:56 |
| pankaj | tomreyn: OK. | 19:56 |
| tomreyn | yes, that it is not supported | 19:56 |
| thebwt | wooster: sorry don't recall, been a long tme since I used linux on a desktop. | 19:56 |
| balooo | tomreyn: heh, really? If that's the case, it's good for me to know. Are there any reference on that? | 19:57 |
| wooster | ic | 19:57 |
| thebwt | balooo: may find luck with lts kernel vs hwe kernel | 19:58 |
| thebwt | not sure of those versions, but that sounds like a workable avenue | 19:58 |
| tomreyn | balooo: oh you mean just the kernel, not the ubuntu release, i had not read the other line. | 19:58 |
| polyarchive_ | how would you kill a locked logon screen in ubuntu? | 19:59 |
| tomreyn | balooo: you should be able to downgrade packages by installing a specific version | 19:59 |
| tomreyn | balooo: besides the apt-get man pages, this also discusses the process of downgrading a given package to a given package version https://askubuntu.com/questions/138284/how-to-downgrade-a-package-via-apt-get | 20:00 |
| balooo | thanks for that. | 20:01 |
| thebwt | polyarchive_: if you can switch to another tty with ctrl-alt-f5 or something, you can login on the cli and restart the lightdm service or wahtever your login manager is | 20:01 |
| polyarchive_ | thanks -- is there a way to see what my login manager in tty? | 20:02 |
| tomreyn | polyarchive_: your question seems incomplete. | 20:03 |
| thebwt | he wants to confirm the name of his login manager via the command line | 20:03 |
| thebwt | it should be in `ps aux`, try `ps aux | grep light` and see if lightdm comes up | 20:04 |
| thebwt | lightdm, gdm, not sure for kde | 20:04 |
| oerheks | mint uses something else with cinnamon, right? | 20:05 |
| * thebwt shrugs | 20:05 | |
| balooo | tomreyn: do you know if it's possible to install a specific version of linux-generic-hwe-16.04 ? | 20:05 |
| polyarchive_ | grep light returns grep --color=auto light | 20:05 |
| thebwt | hmm, then it's not that | 20:06 |
| glitsj16 | polyarchive_: look to where /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service is symlinked | 20:06 |
| tomreyn | balooo: if you have more than one available, you should be able to. maybe state what you are specifically trying to do including the source and target package versions | 20:06 |
| polyarchive_ | grep login returned a few things.... /bin/login -- and /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login | 20:06 |
| polyarchive_ | do any of those sound right? | 20:07 |
| thebwt | see what glitsj16 said | 20:07 |
| thebwt | and actually, if that works then I think `systemctl restart display-manager` would do it | 20:07 |
| thebwt | which that's really really cool | 20:07 |
| balooo | tomreyn: sure. I am trying to get back 4.4.0-77-generic from 4.10.0-27-generic. When i look at the apt history.log all i see is: apt installing linux-generic-hwe-16.04 which brings in linux-headers-4.10.0-27-generic and linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04:amd64 and a few more others. So I was trying to find a package i could install that would manage all those dependencies, allowing me to just go back to what it was, i.e. 4.4.0-77. I'm just not sure how | 20:11 |
| balooo | to look if old packages exist | 20:11 |
| polyarchive_ | glitsj16 -- thanks for the tip -- how do i do that? | 20:11 |
| polyarchive_ | i need very literal directions, i am quite new to linux | 20:11 |
| polyarchive_ | :/ | 20:11 |
| thebwt | polyarchive_: you jsut want to restart it right? | 20:11 |
| gpayano | Hi | 20:12 |
| thebwt | if so, all you should need to do, no matter what dm you use, is run `systemctl restart display-manager` | 20:12 |
| glitsj16 | polyarchive_: ls -l /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service .. and look at the service name it refers to at the end of the result | 20:12 |
| gpayano | anyone using Virtualbox? | 20:12 |
| wooster | god no | 20:13 |
| wooster | no oracle products for me | 20:13 |
| gpayano | I'm facing an issue | 20:13 |
| gpayano | what do you recommend for VMs? | 20:13 |
| polyarchive_ | yayyy that worked thebwt!! | 20:13 |
| polyarchive_ | thanks! | 20:13 |
| thebwt | polyarchive_: np | 20:13 |
| Dbugger | Hello everyone | 20:14 |
| Dbugger | I have a small question. Is there any hotkey to move the windows between screens? | 20:14 |
| tomreyn | balooo: so basically you want to get back from the HWE kernel to the default kernel in 16.04 LTS, i would think | 20:15 |
| tomreyn | !hwe | 20:16 |
| ubottu | The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 20:16 |
| tomreyn | balooo: if that's so, you can just: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic; sudo apt-get purge linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove | 20:18 |
| arooni | how do i modify set viminfo=%,<1000,'10,/50,:100,h,f1,n~/.viminfo to include marks !@#$%^&* ? | 20:19 |
| arooni | oops wrong chan | 20:19 |
| tomreyn | balooo: if you have headers installed, you may want to do the same there. | 20:19 |
| jscatala | hello! I create user X with home at /home/X. Then I create a user Y with home /home/X and added Y to group X. But Y still not been capable to write into X root | 20:23 |
| th0r | jscatala, make sure the group has write permissions, once you make sure you want to do this | 20:25 |
| jscatala | th0r: if I do ls -l all files have X X <filename> | 20:26 |
| th0r | jscatala, to the right of all that.....(drwxrrwxrwx) those are read,write, and execute permissions for user,group,world | 20:26 |
| th0r | jscatala, the other right....the left most column | 20:27 |
| jscatala | th0r: -rwxrwx--- | 20:28 |
| balooo | tomreyn: So installing the 4.8 linux headers package also seems to have resolved the problems. I'm just not sure if that has any other impacts, or if that's a relatively safe change as it's additive. Do you know/have any views on that? So to leave it on 4.10.0-27 and just install linux-headers.4.8 ? | 20:28 |
| jscatala | th0r: this is enought | 20:28 |
| th0r | jscatala, then the group should be able to write to that file | 20:29 |
| th0r | jscatala, for a file, a directory should say drwxrwx--- | 20:29 |
| jscatala | th0r: if I check /etc/group I get X:...:Y | 20:29 |
| th0r | jscatala, never looked there....not sure what it should say/ | 20:30 |
| jscatala | th0r: sudo chmod a+d pwd ? | 20:30 |
| th0r | jscatala, no....that is a bad idea I think | 20:30 |
| th0r | jscatala, what are you trying to do? | 20:30 |
| tomreyn | balooo: which ubuntu release are you working on? | 20:33 |
| tomreyn | balooo: kernel 4.8 is not available as an official / supported package for ubuntu 16.04 at this time. so you must have gotten this from elsewhere or built it yourself? | 20:34 |
| tomreyn | that's if you are on ubuntu 16.04 | 20:34 |
| tomreyn | balooo: so far my understanding was that you would like to downgrade from 4.10 (HWE kernel) to 4.4 (default 16.04 kernel), now how does 4.8 get into play there? | 20:35 |
| balooo | tomreyn: no, we need HWE for some aws specific capabilities. According to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=16.04.x+Ubuntu+Kernel+Support+Schedule.svg there should be a 16.04.2 (v4.8) HWE package available, or at least there was a some time. | 20:36 |
| balooo | I just don't know how/where to find it. | 20:36 |
| balooo | I'd be happy to move to HWE 4.4 as well | 20:37 |
| illmatix | hi, I was just in the process of upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04. I ran in to a problem when i guess it was updating the kernel and my /boot partition was out of space. I since tried to do a clean up like i've done in the past but everytime i try to continue the process it seems to add those images back into the directory. Any ideas how i can do this properly? | 20:40 |
| tomreyn | balooo: which ubuntu release do you run there? | 20:41 |
| tomreyn | lsb_release -sd | 20:42 |
| balooo | Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS | 20:42 |
| tomreyn | yeay | 20:42 |
| Dbugger | Noone knows how to move windows between screens? | 20:44 |
| th0r | Dbugger, I just drag the window from one to the other | 20:45 |
| glitsj16 | Dbugger: https://askubuntu.com/questions/141752/keyboard-shortcut-to-move-windows-between-monitors has a few options | 20:45 |
| oerheks | rightclick on window > move to workspace | 20:45 |
| oerheks | or hold winkey for all shortcuts | 20:45 |
| SimonNL | Dbugger: can't you right click the panel tab and choose that | 20:45 |
| Dbugger | th0r, Id like a key combination, so that I can be faster than with the mouse | 20:46 |
| Dbugger | glitsj16, that is a question from 2012. Did it even use Unity? | 20:46 |
| Dbugger | SimonNL, I would like to be able to do it without touching the mouse | 20:47 |
| tomreyn | balooo: then your choice is between (a) 16.04.0's default (GA) kernel version 4.4, specifically 4.4.0-21 currently, (b) the HWE kernel, currently 4.10.0-27, and (c) the HWE 'edge' kernel, currently 4.10.0-26 | 20:47 |
| Dbugger | oerheks, I do not what to move it to another workspace. I want to move it to another SCREEN | 20:47 |
| Dbugger | I have 3 monitors at home | 20:47 |
| glitsj16 | Dbugger: yes, unity as a compiz plugin is still able to use what's on that page, and there's desktop-environment neutral tips as well | 20:48 |
| tomreyn | balooo: the meta packages linux-image-generic, linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 and linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04-edge allow you to install these easily. | 20:49 |
| daguz_ | How do I get pam to ignore expired password. I want the password to be able to expire, but a cron job needs to continue running. | 20:53 |
| oerheks | Dbugger, with compiz manager you can, and choose a personal shortcut http://www.arj.no/2017/01/03/move-windows-ubuntu/ | 20:54 |
| oerheks | enable 'put' , and configure it | 20:54 |

| illmatix | how can i make space on /boot when trying to finish off a upgrade from 14 to 16 lst when the apt install -f recreates the 3.13.0-x initrd.img-3.13.0.-x-generic and prevents the new kernel from finishing up | 20:58 |
| balooo | tomreyn: is there no way for me to go back to the HWE kernel 4.4.0-77-generic? | 21:00 |
| Ben64 | 4.4 isn't HWE | 21:00 |
| glitsj16 | illmatix: have you tried purging unneeded kernels + header packages *before* starting the upgrade? | 21:00 |
| illmatix | glitsj16: well the examples i've seen mention different file names then what i'm seeing in /boot. | 21:01 |
| illmatix | glitsj16: this is a vm on our internal server so i'm not sure if the names differe for that | 21:01 |
| DWSR | Hey all, I'm trying to do an unattended installation of Ubuntu 16.04 via Packer on Hyper-V. When I boot into the Ubuntu installer, it reads my preseed file, but tells me that the CDROM for installation can't be found and then the VM freezes. Is there any way that I can enable additional logging or feedback? | 21:01 |
| DWSR | Preseed file and Packer template can be found here: https://gist.github.com/DWSR/2d89bc8ca8eb969b4147991eb982cf3f | 21:02 |
| glitsj16 | illmatix: focus on what's in your /boot, there's no difference in package names what apt (the package manager) is concerned | 21:03 |
| illmatix | glitsj16: well doing a purge on the images that get recreated returns package not found. the names i'm trying to clean is initrd.img-3.13.0-x-generic | 21:07 |
| boblamont | When I plug a portable USB HD into my laptop running Lubuntu 16.04, it just sort of stops. Sometimes the screen goes black (I think in those cases, it has fallen asleep and won't wake back up), other times, the panel disappears and clicking anything on the desktop makes all the icons on the desktop vanish (the background remains). What's going on? | 21:07 |
| tomreyn | balooo: what Ben said | 21:07 |
| croberts | has anyone see where all my gnome extensions are disabled upon restart | 21:08 |
| croberts | i saw a post about using system default when logging in but didnt help | 21:08 |
| croberts | it worked for a bit then stopped | 21:08 |
| croberts | 16.04 | 21:08 |
| tomreyn | balooo: 4.4 is the default 'General Availability' kernel. and going back to that just means installing linux-image-generic and ensuring you actually boot into this kernel by the multiple means available. | 21:09 |
| illmatix | glitsj16: ahh okay i think i figured it out thanks. :) | 21:11 |
| glitsj16 | illmatix: you'll need to tell apt the exact package names; initrd.img-3.13.0-x-generic suggests linux-image-3.13.0-generic for example.. might be easier to use synaptic if you're not familiar with kernel naming schemes | 21:11 |
| boblamont | I just right clicked, an openbox menu is there, choosing anything gets a "can't start lxle" type error. | 21:11 |
| illmatix | glitsj16: yeah this is a remote box with out x so synaptic might not be easy to set up in the current state but i found a awya to remove the headers once i realized the names were a little different | 21:12 |
| glitsj16 | illmatix: yeah, i understand, once you figure that out it should make some space in /boot | 21:14 |
| illmatix | glitsj16: yeah, the process we were using was only to remove the files in /boot not the actual package that's stored. So that's probably why they were getting repopulated while trying to complete the upgrade | 21:14 |
| illmatix | Thanks again glitsj16 | 21:14 |
| glitsj16 | illmatix: the gist of it being: don't rm files manually or apt won't be aware of it and will try to keep those, no problem :) | 21:15 |
| illmatix | Yeah, good to note i'll add that to our internal documentation. | 21:15 |
| doux | Home Backup Question: I tar(ed) my /home/user_name directory and then opened up Virtualbox and replaced the fresh install with my untared directory. Tried to open Firefox to see if all my settings were good. Firefox didn't want to open. What am I not understanding about recovering your home directory??? | 21:29 |
| [n0mad] | do other apps exhibit the same behavior or just firefox? | 21:31 |
| doux | n0mad: I didn't check. I will check LibreOffice Writer... | 21:31 |
| doux | n0mad: LibreOffice says my settings are locked? | 21:32 |
| redviper | you should check permissions between the old home directory and the untared one | 21:33 |
| doux | I used a different user name... but I thought that it was the number 1000 that mattered... | 21:33 |
| doux | redviper I made sure that i used tar -cvpzf, but I will check that. | 21:34 |
| redviper | oh ok; have you tried to launch firefox from command line? maybe it can give a more clear error | 21:35 |
| DWSR | Hey all, I'm trying to do an unattended installation of Ubuntu 16.04 via Packer on Hyper-V. When I boot into the Ubuntu installer, it reads my preseed file, but tells me that the CDROM for installation can't be found and then the VM freezes. Is there any way that I can enable additional logging or feedback? Preseed file and Packer template can be found here: https://gist.github.com/DWSR/2d89bc8ca8eb969b4147991eb982cf3f | 21:36 |
| Apachez | where do I disable the bad soundeffect in ubuntu terminal? | 22:10 |
| Apachez | arrived in 17.04 | 22:10 |
| Apachez | like if I backspace and there is no more chars to remove | 22:11 |
| [n0mad] | profile preferences > terminal bell | 22:12 |
| Apachez | but that seems to exist in every software runned in ubuntu | 22:13 |
| Apachez | is it some global setting? | 22:13 |
| Apachez | ok terminal bell removed that annoying thing in terminal | 22:14 |
| Apachez | now lets find it out in other software :( | 22:14 |
| Apachez | cant find it in hexedit | 22:15 |
| Apachez | err | 22:15 |
| Apachez | hexchat | 22:15 |
| [n0mad] | yeah, not sure, i've never tried disabling it but seems something more ingrained | 22:17 |
| [n0mad] | Apachez: Settings > Sounds > Sound Effects | 22:19 |
| dorkmafia | i'm trying to install ubuntu on my dual boot hackintosh/win7 (chameleon bootloader) | 22:27 |
| dorkmafia | I unplugged my win7/osx drive and I have only one drive installed | 22:27 |
| dorkmafia | I'm getting this error: "Sorry, an error occurred and it was not possible to install the bootloader at the specified location." | 22:27 |
| Apachez | [n0mad]: they are all empty | 22:28 |
| Apachez | I still get the same "bell" as I had in the terminal | 22:28 |
| Apachez | or it sounds more like a muffled drum | 22:28 |
| dorkmafia | the install usb looks like it booted up the 32 version of the installer but I have an i7 64 bit chip | 22:28 |
| [n0mad] | i turned sound effects off there and it stopped the sound | 22:28 |
| dorkmafia | so i'm also confused about that | 22:28 |
| Apachez | settings -> preferences -> chatting -> sounds ? | 22:29 |
| [n0mad] | no, in sound effects. i turned it off in that tab and the sound stopped. of course I had others listed there | 22:29 |
| Apachez | there is only one there | 22:30 |
| Apachez | default | 22:30 |
| Apachez | and it sounds like a waterdrop or ehh so | 22:30 |
| Apachez | setting alert volume to mute removed that annoying "bell" | 22:30 |
| Durgeoble | is posble to set 3 configurations to boot ? i use ubuntu in virtual machine from USB in 3 pcs with differents configurations | 22:32 |
| [n0mad] | yeah, it happens everywhere it seems when you backspace...hexhcat, gedit, terminal. it doesn't bother me at all | 22:32 |
| Apachez | well I hate that shit :) | 22:35 |
| Apachez | first thing I do on a wintendo box | 22:35 |
| Apachez | put the sound theme into "no sounds" :) | 22:35 |
| Apachez | also funny that the soundbar have a stepsize of 10% or so | 22:36 |
| Apachez | the one close to the clock (normally upper right) | 22:37 |
| Apachez | in 17.04 compared to 16.10 | 22:37 |
| Apachez | and whats "repowerd"? seems to lack manpages for that | 22:40 |
| tomreyn | !info repowerd yakkety | 22:42 |
| ubottu | repowerd (source: repowerd): Power daemon to monitor and control system power state. In component universe, is optional. Version 2016.08.3+16.10.20160830.1-0ubuntu1 (yakkety), package size 121 kB, installed size 482 kB | 22:42 |
| dorkmafia | why does my usb flash drive boot with 32 bit screen? | 22:44 |
| Apachez | anyone in here with ubuntu 17.04 and cs:go (steam) along with intel gpu? after upgrading from 16.10 to 17.04 it seems like no textures are runned when entering a game, I see only light and reflections etc | 22:50 |
| Apachez | this is how the startscreen when entering a game looks like https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/73012/4452215/9f7b948e-4843-11e4-842b-c05a8f4b2e60.png | 22:54 |
| Apachez | looks like libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0:i386 is involved in this | 23:01 |
| balooo | Does anyone how to downgrade the hwe kernel ? | 23:12 |
| oerheks | i guess if you want to undo HWE and return to the 4.4, reinstall | 23:13 |
| GalzuFromQ | I installed the 4.12 kernel but the server is still booting into the 2.6 kernel!? | 23:18 |
| GalzuFromQ | Any help would be appreciated. | 23:18 |
| bipul | When i say orphan packages! it means unused packages? | 23:21 |
| bipul | I would like to remove orphan packages from distribution. | 23:22 |
| GalzuFromQ | bipul, https://askubuntu.com/questions/286947/obsolete-packages-vs-orphaned-packages | 23:22 |
| bipul | GalzuFromQ, Thank you. | 23:24 |
| oerheks | GalzuFromQ, 2.6 kernel sounds like vagrant | 23:24 |
| oerheks | no way you run any other kernel on that, ask in the #vagrant channel | 23:25 |
| balooo | oerhks: but we were using hwe successfully, it's only when it got upgraded to 4.10 from 4.8 that it stopped working for us. | 23:26 |
| GalzuFromQ | bipul, you're welcome. | 23:27 |
| GalzuFromQ | oerheks, can you explain please? | 23:27 |
| oerheks | vagrant is a highly tweaked cloud image, not supported by ubuntu. | 23:28 |
| oerheks | ask the vagrant channel why they stick to the 2.6.x kernel | 23:28 |
| bipul | oerheks, Do you know how to install vagrant? I would love to learn about it. :) | 23:29 |
| oerheks | bipul, why do you ask, i don't support it. | 23:29 |
| GalzuFromQ | Ok, its a shared virtual server. | 23:29 |
| bipul | GalzuFromQ, Means, there is difference between VM and Vagrant? | 23:31 |
| GalzuFromQ | bipul, not sure... I haven't administered a server in a while. | 23:31 |
