Bashing-omSchnabeltierchen: Pastebin your fstab file ' cat /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999 ' to start this ball rolling .00:04
SchnabeltierchenBashing-om http://paste.ubuntu.com/25173324/ here my /etc/fstab00:08
Bashing-omSchnabeltierchen: Not OK, What are you trying to set up here ? You have no mount in fstab for a nfs share .00:14
Schnabeltierchenmhm, i thought autofs would handle the thing with fuse... but it seems i was wrong, still learning this stuff. i got a small linux box with decent storage, now i want to mount to mount some nfs shares from my nas to the box00:16
Bashing-omSchnabeltierchen: step 8 : https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-nfs-mount-on-ubuntu-16-04 . should be similar in 14.04 .00:21
Schnabeltierchenmhm so i will comment the values out in my existing configs and test it from the beginning :)00:24
Bashing-omSchnabeltierchen: K; For a network share, must mount the share(s) somewhere . to automount is the function of the fstab file .00:27
Schnabeltierchenah finally: mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.168.178.21:/volume1/Downloads ! a hint i could follow :)00:29
SchnabeltierchenBashing-om thank you for setting me upon the right trail :)00:35
Bashing-omSchnabeltierchen: Yepper . The server manages permissions . See what the tutoral says .00:41
Schnabeltierchenhttps://forum.ubuntuusers.de/post/3189407/ <-- this was the issue with the permissions... mounting it manually (sudo mount 192.168.178.21:/volume1/Downloads /media/nfs/) works, but autofs doesn´t....00:42
Bashing-omSchnabeltierchen: Never used autofs to mount . Can not directly advise .00:45
Schnabeltierchenbut you set me on the trail figuring out problem number 1, that was a great help on my way to solve this whole thing :)00:46
littlebearSchnabeltierchen,  did u try 192.168.178.21/volume1/Downloads00:51
Schnabeltierchenlittlebear: mounting just "Downloads" to the "main-nfs-folder" /media/nfs woks with ( sudo mount 192.168.178.21:/volume1/Downloads /media/nfs ) works, but autofs doesn´t mount the share....00:52
Schnabeltierchenlittlebear my autofs settings are http://paste.ubuntu.com/25173211/00:58
kenrinIt doesn't mount after you ls ?01:02
Schnabeltierchenyep01:04
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, are you using systemd by anychance?01:04
Schnabeltierchengulp... maybe... wasn´t it introduced in 16.04 first? i´m running 14.04....01:04
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, if u are just follow the instruction and 2 files to set it up ;) http://blog.tomecek.net/post/automount-with-systemd/01:04
SchnabeltierchenDescription:    Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS01:04
kenrinWhere is your /etc/auto.nfs paste or did I miss that01:04
Schnabeltierchenhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/25173211/ lines 17-2001:05
Oderusanyone happen to know in kubuntu where the config file is to set the icon theme in kubuntu?01:07
kenrinLooks good to me as long as the /media/nfs/Downloads dir doesn't exist.  May need to change the fstype to nfs4 if you are using that01:08
Schnabeltierchenahh :)01:08
Schnabeltierchenchanged it to -fstype=nfs4,rw,retry=001:09
littlebearkenrin, the config looks good to me too, i thought ubuntu 14.04 doesn't ship with nfs401:10
Schnabeltierchenreboot, but sadly nope...01:10
kenrinNo idea,  autofs is dying off to systemd so I never use it anymore01:10
Schnabeltierchensadly i can´t get my box to update to 16.04 :(01:11
Schnabeltierchenmhm can´t i use systemd in 14.04? :P01:12
littlebearinstead of 192.168.178.* can you do 192.168.178.0/2401:12
kenrinYou can not use systemd in 14.04 without destroying the OS01:13
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, i was looking at https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/106122/mount-nfs-access-denied-by-server-while-mounting-on-ubuntu-machines01:13
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, it looks like they are doing .0/24 as oppose to *, donno if that can fix the issue on the server end01:13
Schnabeltierchenlittlebear i already figured out this problem with the help of Bashing-om :) https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/post/3189407/ <-- this was giving me the the problem01:13
Schnabeltierchenwindows refused mounting the share before this change, now windows mounts it... but not my linux box01:14
kenrinIf you want to troubleshoot it more,  There is a setting inside /etc/default/autofs to output verbosely.  Then you can find out why it is not working due to errors01:14
kenrinProbably permission issue01:15
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, LOL, i totally blame the guy who designed it, they need to fix wildcard01:15
Schnabeltierchenyeah, but this was very easy to fix :)01:15
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, so now u're win is working, but linux client can't mount nfs?01:16
Schnabeltierchenthe linux client does the manually mounting ( sudo mount 192.168.178.21:/volume1/Downloads /media/nfs ) but autofs doesn´t mount the folders01:17
Schnabeltierchenthe Downloads folder gets mounted to the "main-nfs-folder", but it´s just for testing01:17
littlebearis autofs running? /etc/init.d/autofs status01:19
Schnabeltierchen"sudo restart autofs" gives me "autofs start/running, process 1554", so i assume: yes01:19
littlebearso if u cd /media/nfs/Downloads it doesn't work?01:21
Schnabeltierchennope01:21
Schnabeltierchenif i do /media/nfs it works... ls doesn´t give me anything in this folder01:22
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, can you edit it to Downloads -fstype=nfs,rw 192.168.178.21:/volume1/Downloads01:22
littlebearjust wanted to check without the retry option01:23
Schnabeltierchenkk01:23
kenrinIf you stop autofs and automount -f -v does it tell you why it is not mounting?01:24
Bashing-omSchnabeltierchen: "/media/nfs/Downloads" mounted in more than one palce ? As thr last moun overrides the former and in that case of 2 mounts will see nothing .01:24
Bashing-omas the last mount**01:25
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, fyi, on the client you just reload autofs, don't need to reboot server01:26
Schnabeltierchenhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/25173671/ is the outpuf of "automount -f -v"01:27
kenrinit says it mounted indirect on /media/nfs =/01:29
SchnabeltierchenBashing-om http://paste.ubuntu.com/25173676/ doesn´t show anything of the nfs folder....01:29
Schnabeltierchenbut after i did "sudo mount -l" the putput from the autofs changed....01:29
Schnabeltierchenhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/25173688/ is the new thing... something about udev...01:30
Schnabeltierchenlittlebear i just rebooting the client, not the server... just the end some manually mounted things, to be sure01:31
littlebearSchnabeltierchen,01:33
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, can you check permission for auto.master file?01:33
littlebearon the client put chmod 777 for now01:33
Bashing-omSchnabeltierchen: 1st paste does not show any nfs mounted . // and the system is screaming in the 2nd about the mounts in /media/ . What shows ' ls -al /media/ ; ls -al /media/nfs/ ' ?01:34
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, also do the same for /etc/auto.nfs01:34
Schnabeltierchenokay set chmod 777 to both files, http://termbin.com/gk1d and http://termbin.com/on6d are the outputs01:37
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, what's the output of automount -f -v01:38
Schnabeltierchenlittlebear: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25173735/01:39
Schnabeltierchenmhm but now the output didn´t change when i did "sudo mount -l"...01:40
littlebearin /etc/auto.master delete all other line except /media/nfs /etc/auto.nfs01:41
kenrinIt won't change until you cd and try to ls the dir01:41
littlebearSchnabeltierchen, after a autofs reload, does you're ls /media/nfs/Downloads work now?01:42
Schnabeltierchenlittlebear http://paste.ubuntu.com/25173768/ is the output after i tried to ls the directory01:45
kenrinfailedd..01:47
littlebearok, atleast we're getting somewhere :) failed to mount /media/nfs/Downloads01:47
kenrinautomount -f --debug should give ya some more info on that01:47
Schnabeltierchenkenrin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25173795/01:48
kenrinWait did you set execute on the auto. files ?  That'll cause some issues01:50
jayjowhat's the du command to show the human readable directory file size from / ?01:50
littlebearjayjo, du -h01:50
jayjojust the directores01:51
jayjothe directories totals, not each individual file size01:51
kenrinchmod -x those auto. files Schnabeltierchen .  Then re-test with automount -f --debug01:52
SchnabeltierchenAAAHHH01:53
Schnabeltierchenbut strangely: when i "cd /media/nfs" and do "ls" it doesn´t show anything, but i can do "cd Downloads" and it enters the folder...01:56
Schnabeltierchenthere was something about an --ghost flag for autofs i remember....01:56
Schnabeltierchenafter cd´ing into Downloads all files show up and i can access them... and doing "ls" now is showing the "Downloads" folder inside "/media/nfs"01:59
[n0mad]now just never touch anything02:00
Schnabeltiercheni rebooted the client severall times to for testing and stuff :)02:00
kenrinYeah you can --ghost to the end of the line in auto.master02:01
kenrinThen tab completion will work on the dir02:01
pankajWhay did ubuntu changed the log configuration file name from syslog.conf to rsyslog.conf?02:05
kenrinBecause they use rsyslog instead of syslog02:05
Schnabeltierchenthx guys kenrin, littlebear and Bashing-om! you guys did it!02:05
pankajkenrin: That's what I am asking.02:06
kenrinNot sure what you are asking then pankaj,  they moved software so the config is different.  :  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Syslogd_to_rsyslog02:08
Bashing-omSchnabeltierchen: :)02:09
maxcell_Hi, im having an error with "vainfo" it returns an error about nvidia_drv_so02:09
kenrinpankaj: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Syslogd_to_rsyslog02:10
maxcell_what should i install to have vaapi running with vdpau in nvidia cards?02:10
pankajkenrin: That was satisfying info.02:12
alnrhi all. after i used teamviewer to remote into my desktop everything (fonts, icons, chrome) got huge and is stuck like that. I know the resolution is correct. another profile on the box is ok so im thinking its something in my home folder but i dont know what. Its so bad I pretty much cant open anything like 'display' or seetings02:19

gatolinuxIt looks like "Ubuntu server" is the only distribution backed up by a Vendor (Canonical, in this case) support which on the same time remains free to use by users. Did I catch well the idea?02:22
kenrinalnr: I think that is stored in .config/compiz* or the gtk dirs.  You can always use the "unity-tweak-tool --reset-unity" if you have it installed02:24
alnrkenrin: ok thanks. i'm really curious what setting would do that. i thought maybe something to do with accessibility02:26
alnror zoom or magnify or something like that02:26
kenrinI'm not exactly sure which one does it.  But it would be in the tweak tool somewhere02:29
alnrhmm, that didnt work, still gigantic everything. tweak said it was going to reset everything and then i logged out and back in02:35
alnrmeanwhile this account i'm in now is fine02:35
th0ralnr, just an idea...since one account is fine and the other is hosed, chances are the setting is somewhere in .config. Backup the hosed .config, then copy the good one over and see if that solves the problem02:38
th0ralnr, that is ~/.config....where most of the user configs are stored02:38
alnryeah that sounds good. i was looking at .config/compiz-1 on hosed one, theres hardly anything in it02:39
alnrotoh, .compiz/session has bunch of binary files with generated names02:40
kenrinYou sure stuff just isn't zoomed in?  Can you ctrl + mousewheel and change it ?02:42
alnryeah, no its not that. is so screwed. my icons on the left are literally 6 inches square (this is on a 43inch 4k monitor)02:44
kenrinthat can be changed in the tweak tool under panel02:45
kenrinBut yeah probably better just to remove the configs02:45

LukeLRFYI it was really easy to fix this, just make a copy of the config i already used and replace the uuid by the uuid of the ubuntu disk. that works, even although ubuntu has a much older kernel version than arch linux05:24
alnryes, thanks for your help. the other setting was "Scale all window contents to match" which was set to display with smallest controls. I think this all started when I went into the desktop from my 3kres tablet and touched teamviewer resolution tweaking05:26

ubottuagenthex: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience06:28
agenthexI know it's silly to ask that as a general question, but the touchpad in this machine is not working in any distribution, and I wanted to know if anyone at all had one and got it to work.  I've been distro hopping trying to get it to work, and even compiled my own kernel.  I'm sure support will roll around eventually, but I wanted to know if anyone managed to get the touchpad working, and I'd take the (very machine-specific) questi06:31
agenthexIt's a very new machine.  The touchscreen works, and so does bluetooth and everything else I've been able to test so far.  Just the touchpad doesn't work for beans on any distribution.06:33
majaagenthex: no touch pad annoying ! there is an adtional package you can install for mouse control that my help, though i can't remember its name06:37
Schnabeltierchenagenthex: any multi-function-keys to disable the touchpad?06:37
agenthexSo, just to get it into one line and make it nice and concise and not at all wordy: If anyone has a Lenovo Yoga 720, specifically the 15" version, please let me know.  If you got the touchpad to work, help me!  If not, let's figure this out.06:38
agenthexSchnabeltierchen: yes, but it does not enable functionality.06:38
Schnabeltierchenmhm i´m a newbie, i´m certainly wrong but... try using this keys a bit, and tail dmesg or lsusb.... maybe this gives a hint06:39
agenthexmaja: Thankfully, bluetooth works (and so does touch in a pinch, but 4K is a bear for accuracy), and I have plenty of USB gear.06:39
majaagenthex: your better posting on the foraums for this btw06:41
agenthexThe funny thing is that dmesg doesn't have anything pertaining to "touchpad" or "synaptics" despite the fact that lsusb shows a Synaptics, Inc. device.06:41
agenthexI'll take it to the forums.06:42
Schnabeltierchenmhm i was thinking of installing ubuntu to my Lenovo MIIX 310-10ICR Pro but after your story agenthex i´m hesistating....06:43
pconwellLooking for suggestions on best partition format for large files (e.g. movies). Everything I'm finding on google is years out of date.06:43
majaagenthex: yeah that adtional mouse control package is what i think you need, i just can't remember its name but i used it before and sorted out lots of problems06:44
majaSchnabeltierchen: he says it works great apart from the touch pad, do you got the same touch pad06:44
agenthexI installed xf86-input-synaptics and even a psmouse-alps package, as per online discussion.  Haven't hit that holy grail yet.06:45
Schnabeltierchendon´t exactly know... i didn´t examined it this far... but i think it´s connected with usb, cause i can deattach the keyboard/touchpad part....06:45
majapconwell: thats because it no longer matters, it used to be a movie was a large file, now with databases over a peka byte they are small files, i'd say go with a raid array06:45
majaSchnabeltierchen: why not try it on a usb boot ?06:46

pconwellmaja: cool thanks!06:47
Schnabeltierchencause i´m lacking an micro-usb-otg-adapter....06:47

majaSchnabeltierchen: ahhh i see the problem, no micro sd card slot ?06:48
Schnabeltierchenmhm... that would be a solution...06:49
majaSchnabeltierchen: if its just to boot up for a test of default drivers any port will work, but just know usb 2 will mean the system runs a bit slower then it would with a normal install06:49

agenthexSchnabeltierchen: I don't think you'll have a problem installing or getting even somewhat older hardware supported.06:50
Schnabeltiercheni´ll do a backup for sure before trying to mess up anything on the device :P06:51
Schnabeltiercheni love backups :)06:51
agenthexInstallation hasn't been the problem.  Like I said, this is a super-new laptop.  Eventually, they'll figure out the issue.06:51
agenthexAlways do a backup./06:51
Schnabeltiercheni´m running a pxe server with clonezilla in my network06:51
Schnabeltierchenvery fast backups from every system :)06:52
Schnabeltierchensaves me a lot of problems06:52
Schnabeltierchendid something wrong with the pc? just boot with pxe and restore a saved backup06:52
Schnabeltierchenthe lenovo miix got an 64gb emmc storage with preinstalled/activated windows and a restore partition and stuff... i´ll mess this up for sure when i try to install ubuntu :P06:54
Schnabeltierchennevermind got it nearly running "sudo service jdownloader status" gives me   "*  is running" it´s something :P06:58
Mittenshello I have a hp laptop with windows 1007:04
Mittensmy usb flash drive 3.0 with 128gb is available07:04
Mittenshow do I install ubuntu, do I just go to ubuntu site and start downloading or am I supposed to do something with windows10 first07:05
MittensI don't need to keep windows 1007:05
Mittensfrakking slow and constant updates anyway, I HATE IT07:05
Schnabeltierchenokay, no problem... you need your usb drive to act as an install-medium07:06
Mittensyes sir07:06
SchnabeltierchenMittens: there is an windows tool https://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ which enables your usb-drive to be an install medium07:07
MittensI see07:07
Schnabeltierchenmost steps self explaining... select linux distro (ubuntu) if iso file isnt already downloaded, it will provide you with a link to download the iso file, then select the iso file, select your usb drive and go (you may install ubuntu directly on the drive, so you can use you windows from the hdd and boot ubuntu from the stick)07:09
Schnabeltierchensecond step: insert the usb drive in the laptop and boot from usb07:09
Schnabeltierchenthen the ubutu setup should appear and guide you through the process07:09
Mittenssir07:09
MittensI'm looking hard to for the ubuntu distro07:10
Mittenson the link u provided07:10
Schnabeltierchenopen the programm07:10
MittensI don't see one for flash drive install for ubuntu07:10
Schnabeltierchenit will give you the link07:10
Schnabeltierchen0.o07:10
Mittensohh07:10
Mittens"universal USB installer 1.9.7.8.exe" sir?07:11
Schnabeltierchenhttps://www.pendrivelinux.com/wp-content/uploads/Universal-USB-Installer.png <--- top right... if no file-path to an iso is given, you can acces this link to download the iso07:11
Schnabeltierchenyep download this exe on your windows 10 laptop07:12
Schnabeltierchenand start it with admin rights07:12
Mittensum it finished downlading and options are Run Open Folder View Downloadsd07:12
MittensI don't know how to start it with admin rights.. do I just choose Run?07:12
Schnabeltierchenrun :)07:12
Schnabeltierchenah no07:13
Mittensthank you07:13
Schnabeltierchenopen folder07:13
MittensWOOPS07:13
Schnabeltierchenrightclick07:13
Mittensdo I go back? it says "do you want to allow this app from an unknown publisher to make changes to your device"07:13
Schnabeltierchenit should work even without admin rights, but just to be sure...07:13
Schnabeltierchenallow this app07:13
Schnabeltierchenallow it and if it starts close it07:13
Schnabeltierchenopen the folder you saved it into07:14
Schnabeltierchenrightclick the file and search for "run as admin" or something in this meaning07:14
Mittenswell the set up window is open07:14
Schnabeltierchenfirst the dropdown menu07:14
Mittensyes!07:14
Mittensmany sorts of ubuntu..07:14
Mittensubuntu, ubuntu budgie, edubuntu. kubuntu.. lunbuntu.. etc07:15
MittensI chose the Unbuntu 32/64 bit07:15
SchrodingersScatxubuntu07:15
MittensI guess it includes all07:15
Mittensuse xubuntu?07:15
Schnabeltierchenthey mostly differ from the installed desktop enviroments... and installed packages07:15
SchrodingersScatMittens: it's personal opinion, but I like it.07:15
Schnabeltierchenyou told me your laptop would be slow... so i would suggest "lubuntu" cause it sould have the smallest hardware footprint....07:16
MittensI was asked o download ubuntu as a project07:16
Schnabeltierchenlubuntu uses the same core as ubuntu, but mhm... if you´re familiar with android "another launcher"....07:17
SchrodingersScatdifferent styles, flavours, etc.07:17
Mittensi chose "ubuntu"07:17
Mittensnd step 2 says select r ubuntu desktop iso07:18
Schnabeltierchenubuntu has a more fancy launcher wich will take up more system ressources... but it´s your choice07:18
Mittensit mskes me browse07:18
MittensI see07:18
MittensI'm trying to get it just the same as folks in this room07:19
Mittenssorry not this room07:19
Mittensbut other peeps I know07:19
SchrodingersScatSchnabeltierchen: I would think it would be on par or better than win10 though, but I haven't checked this07:19
Mittensby the way I don't want to keep win1007:19
Schnabeltierchenyeah, but he told us, his windows 10 would run slow.... so i thought something more lightweight would be good...07:19
SchrodingersScatMittens: you did a backup of any personal files though?07:19
SchrodingersScatMittens: and by backup I mean multiple copies, because please don't lose anything that would bring you to tears.07:20
Schnabeltierchenallways correct me when i´m wrong07:20
Mittensschrodinger: this laptop I bought for this purpose, no personal files07:20
Mittensbut thank u!!07:20
Schnabeltierchenis your laptop an x64 or x86?07:21
SchrodingersScatSchnabeltierchen: well, Mittens can do a test during the liveusb boot, even though it will be slower because it runs off usb, you can still get a general idea?07:21
MittensSchnabeltierchen:ummm 64-bit07:22
Mittensx64- based processor07:22
Schnabeltierchenmhm lubuntu supports a live boot from usb too, if i rememer right... so he could test both...07:22
MittensAMD a6-7310 HP07:22
Schnabeltierchenhttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/17.04/release/lubuntu-17.04-desktop-amd64.iso would be the link to the iso you need....07:22
Mittenswith AMD Radeon R407:22
SchrodingersScatSchnabeltierchen: think most do, except server and mini.iso xubuntu is my go-to for diagnostic liveusb :^)07:23
Mittensoh ok thanku, I will download that now07:23
Schnabeltierchenyou got another system beside the laptop, right mittens?07:23
SchrodingersScatMittens: that's lubuntu, just a note07:23
MittensI don't want lubuntu07:23
MittensI want ubuntu07:23
MittensxD07:24
Mittensschnabeltierchen: yep I do07:24
Mittensthis laptop is for ubuntu and studying coding xD07:24
SchnabeltierchenMittens http://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/mirror/ubuntu/releases/16.04.2/ubuntu-16.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso would be a link to a mirror for Ubuntu07:25
SchrodingersScathttp://mirror.pnl.gov/releases/17.04/ubuntu-17.04-desktop-amd64.iso is one link then, https://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads07:25
SchrodingersScatSchnabeltierchen: hmm, why suggest the 17.04 for lubuntu but the 16.04 for ubuntu?07:25
Schnabeltiercheni just looked upon the sites for the newest isos...07:25
Mittensthank you guys07:26
* Mittens attempts to download07:26
Schnabeltiercheni don´t know why they released the 17.04 images of lubuntu and the 16.04 for ubuntu07:26
SchrodingersScat17.04 is out for ubuntu07:26
SchrodingersScatpersonal choice on if you want to use a non LTS, but it's out07:26
Schnabeltierchensorry Mittens!!! i didn´t saw the button https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/thank-you?version=17.04&architecture=amd64 is the new one07:27
Schnabeltierchen17.04 ubuntu is available too :)07:27
SchrodingersScatSchnabeltierchen: yeah, if you're looking on ubuntu.com then I think they list the LTS first, because that's the more ... long term07:28
MittensI'm confused.. am I supposed to download that iso onto my computer first?07:28
Mittensmy laptop?07:28
Schnabeltierchenyou need to download the iso files on your computer07:29
Mittensperfect07:29
Schnabeltierchenstick your usb-drive insde the computer07:29
Schnabeltierchenstart the programm07:29
Mittensthanku for the confirm07:29
SchrodingersScatMittens: to get a liveUSB then download the iso to your main computer, and I believe you installed the tool to put the image on the cd earlier in chat.  Then you can use that tool to place it on the usb drive and then place the usb drive in the laptop and attempt to boot from it.07:29
Schnabeltierchenchose ubuntu, select the iso, select the usb drive and go07:29
Mittensahhh makes sense!07:29
Mittensthank you guys will try now! <3 <307:29
SchrodingersScatI guess you could also do that from the laptop if it has a working windows, but meh sometimes you need to re-do things so it's probably easier to have it on a system you're not overwriting.07:30
Schnabeltierchenfor starters an iso file is like "ziping" and cd/dvd to a single file... this iso file you´re downloading contains the installer cd/dvd for ubuntu07:31
Schnabeltierchenthe programm extracts it to your usb drive and sets it to act like it would be an usb-cd-drive with the inserted ubuntu cd07:32
Mittenscool07:32
Schnabeltierchenyou understood my gibberish?07:32
Schnabeltierchenyeay :)07:33
MittensI think I intuitively got the gist of it I thinnnnkkkk?07:33
MittensxD07:33
Mittensummm07:33
Mittensis it normal that it takes more than an hour?07:33
SchrodingersScatMittens: you can use the torrent off the site if the direct download is too slow 4 you07:33
SchrodingersScathttp://releases.ubuntu.com/17.04/ubuntu-17.04-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent07:34
MittensI don't mind being slow, but curious, do I need a torrent app? in order to torrent off?07:34
SchrodingersScatMittens: yeah, windows doesn't have a torrent client by default.07:35
Mittenswas just wondering if I'm downloading normally, the amount of time is not suspicious huh?07:35
Schnabeltierchenit depends on your internet-connection... it´s about 1,5gb....07:35
Schnabeltierchenah now i see... the dl is getting slow...07:35
SchrodingersScatMittens: you can choose another mirror perhaps. Up to you.07:35
Schnabeltierchenwhich browser are you using on your computer?07:36

Mittensam I supposed to click that now?07:36
Mittenson the hp laptop?07:37
Schnabeltierchenit´s a list of some server hosting the iso file07:37
Schnabeltierchenyou can choose one near your location07:37
Mittensis this in order to speed up the download?07:37
Mittensif so, oh my gosh guys I don't mind waitin07:37
SchrodingersScatcorrect, if one server is being slow for you, you're welcome to try another07:37
Schnabeltierchennear you location = less distance to travel in internet => faster download (in most cases)07:37

SwedeMikechilversc: I have been successful with "apt-get autoremove" when that happened. I don't know why yours doesn't work the same way. Did you try to remove the last version installed (that caused the partition to be full)08:54

MrokiiHello. This is only slightly Ubuntu-related. I want to format an USB stick to use it for data exchange with a windows-machine. I am trying to create a new partition table but am unsure if I should use GPT or ms-dos as partition-type.09:12
EriC^^Mrokii: ms-dos would be better for portability and working on more machines09:13
EriC^^Mrokii: the limitation is you can't have a single bigger than 2tb partition09:13
chilverscBen64: that just delays the problem, it should be able to remove an old image (that's just a delete)09:14

Firefly67After rebooting my desktop, I can't do anything because I get the message "Could not update ICEauthority file". I saw some threads on askubuntu which suggest performing certain fixes, but I can't run any sudo commands as I don't have root authority11:31
gatolinuxSo, great! It's because I was looking for a distribution I use and support but to escalate major incidents to the Vendor (Canonical). In this case Ubuntu is the right one (discarding CentOS/openSUSE).11:31
Firefly67is there something I can do here, or should I go to the system administrator?11:31

sewerratHey trying to spin up up my ubuntu server, but it gets stuck on Started Cleanup of temporary directories and has  been stuck there for 2 hours now. Any clue? i still got SSH access.12:51
tomreynsewerrat: check the output of 'dmesg'12:54
tomreynsewerrat: also: sudo less /var/log/syslog (press shift-g to go to the end of this file, q to quit)12:56
_pronet_Adios Mi amigos12:57
sewerrathmm there is something there, let me check, give me a couple of minutes13:01
sewerrathttp://dpaste.com/1XBWEP8 this is what i can find within  /var/log/syslog13:05
tomreynsewerrat: that's just a warning, should not cause any 'freeze'. you could discuss more what freezes there, and how you can still access the system via ssh when it freezes.13:09

elit3xI am running Ubuntu(17.04) in VirtualBox(5.1.24) ... I have followed many tutorials, but i can not get Unity 3D supported to yes. I have installed build-essential and also the VBox additions. Any other tips please!?13:17
elit3xnot sure if it matters i have KDE and plasma installed also13:17
oerhekselit3x, check the vbox settings manager, give more mem to GPU, and maybe add more cpu cores to your vbox-instance, and enable 3d13:19
oerheksGPU wants 256 mb13:19
oerheks*minimum13:19
elit3xoerheks: video memory is maxed out at 128mb .. i have it set to 2 cores.13:20
oerheksoh, not sure 128 is enough for unity, i think not.13:20
elit3xwhen i enable 3d in vbox everything stops working :(13:20
tomreynuse a different window manager then, one that is less deamanding and works fine with just 2D, such as xfce. apt-get install xubuntu.13:23
=== Darth_afk is now known as DarthWar
elit3xtomreyn:  So xfce would replace KDE or plasma correct? Sorry im new and trying to understand... if i run the apt-get that will replace my current window manager13:28
oerheksi would make a fresh vbox instance with xubuntu, ubuntu mate or ubuntubudgie, no cluther from unity in that13:30
elit3xok thanks13:32
tomreynelit3x: installing the 'xubuntu' meta package would add a new window manager option to the login menu to choose from. it would not remove unity off the VM.13:32
sewerratddd13:33
elit3xif i start fresh vbox i must install ubuntu first, and then xubuntu correct13:33
oerhekselit3x, no, just download the Xubuntu iso13:34

zanshinI'm installing 17.04 on an ASUS Q325. I updated the BIOS, I went into the BIOS and turned off Secure Boot, and I resized Windows 10 to make 256G of room. Ubuntu installed, but hangs on the first boot. If I restart the machine it comues up after a 20-30 second delay. Each subsequent boot also hangs for an extended period of time. Something isn't right but I'm at a loss as to what it could be. Any ideas?14:14

ShishKababI'm creating a service that provides users with GPG keys they use to sign verifications about other users on other servers using Node.js. Now I'm trying to generate the keys by calling the gpg2 command, but it's asking me to generate entropy. I'm generating entropy already on the client-side with a JS crypto lib. Is there some way to feed those bits into gpg2?14:30
tomreynzanshin: maybe it's checking file systems while it seems to hang? though it would normally show that. you could hit escape when it hangs to see where it hangs.14:30
zanshintomreyn: Hitting escape just nets me a blank screen.14:31
zanshinGrub is working, I can select Ubuntu or Windows, and Ubuntu does eventually start up14:31
WanterAgain: I canÄ14:32

oerheksmarvin42, 16.10 is dead, eol, use a supported ubuntuversion, 16.04 or 17.0414:35
geniimarvin42: Use the dd, and try nomodeset to get rid of the blank screen14:35
oerheksWanter, your issue is something withthe gpu driver, not screensaver.14:35
genii!nomodeset14:35
ubottuA common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter14:35
marvin42genii, how can I access the boot options inside the pendrive?14:36

ikoniawhat contents exactly17:37
ikoniashows us the output of ls -la /opt/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/17:37
codecutterfiles and directories17:37
oerheksanddam, i think you are right, that latest patch is not available|??17:38
scottjlkonrados: what do you mean by *cable* ? ethernet?17:38
konradosscottjl, a wire connection, through 2 switches and then a router17:39
scottjlkonrados: is it seeing your ethernet port? can you ping other systems on your network?17:40
JonelethIrenicushow can i set scaling for gnome apps in kde17:40
codecutternot sure what's going on17:40
JonelethIrenicusi set export GDK_SCALE=2 in my .bashrc17:40
JonelethIrenicusshould i put it in profile?17:40
ikoniacodecutter: please give the paste you've been asked for17:40
konradosscottjl, I'll try to get back here with web based irc :)17:40
konradosOn the pc in subject17:41
scottjlcodecutter: is this directory on another filesystem? is it mounted RO? there could be _lots_ of reasons.17:41
codecuttersorry, missed the request. Here you go https://pastebin.com/nRQsCYiS17:42
gde33why are so many things using 1-2 Gb virtual memory? (system monitor)17:42
codecutterrefuses to delete: sudo rm -rf /opt/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/*17:42
ikoniacodecutter: what happens if you do "sudo rm -rf /opt/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/Makefile17:42
ikoniacodecutter: are you sure it's not deleting it and the java server is not re-exploding the wars ?17:43
codecutterwell, i shut down tomcat17:43
ikoniaor is there any error/warning17:43
gde33I have kvirc and firefox running. kvirc uses 1.8 which seem a lot for irc? firefox and its 2 web content processes use 2 gb each? even system monitor uses 705 mb?17:43

konrados_scottjl: hi, not sure if you see this message, I'm now on the pc having no access to wired connection, what do I do?17:45
scottjlkonrados_: can you ping other devices on your network?17:45
gde33gnome software 1.6 gb? evolution source registry 1.2? why so many huge values? I must be not getting something.17:45
codecuttertried that already: rm: refusing to remove '.' or '..' directory: skipping '/opt/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/.'17:46
gde33surely these things overlap enormously? or it would be 30ish gb? lol17:46

codecutterah17:49
codecutterthat worked17:49
konrados_I know how to ping a website:)17:49
ikoniainteresting17:49
scottjlkonrados_: you're probably going to have to disable the wifi to test. open a command line and "ping addr" with the address of some other device on your network17:49
konrados_scottjl: but how to find "address of some other device"?.... I'm such a noob :(17:50
scottjlkonrados_: the address of your router?17:50
konrados_scottjl: sec...17:51
cousteauscottjl, not really; gnumeric uses Gtk, but that doesn't mean that you have to install a whole desktop environment17:51

RovingWriterJust thought I'd drop in and tell you guys....18:19
RovingWriterI got a call from a client, to do some work on their server... logged in and saw... 10:57:46 up 3398 days, 13:57,  2 users,  load average: 1.34, 1.03, 0.818:20
alexasoops, wrong buffer sorry18:20
RovingWriteri thought, surely it was a mistake, so i checked version.... 5.0418:20
RovingWriterover 9 year uptime on 5.04. genuinely impressed.... no power outages, no hdd failures, nothing... haha18:20
drew____RovingWriter: amazing18:20
drew____is it in a DC?18:20
RovingWriterno, its at a gas station18:21
RovingWriterthey do have generator power though, if power goes out18:21
jerprobably also on batteries, generators usually take a bit to kick in18:21
alexas@drew____ 17:46.88, internal it's a laptop18:21
pavlositdependsnetwork: I dont think there is another file with just dhcp info, I tried grep NetworkManager /var/log/syslog and see the conversation getting an ip, lease time, etc.18:21
itdependsnetworkhmm, using server, which I am beginning to think may be part of the issue18:22
itdependsnetwork^^ pavlos: I guess pointing out that there is no NetworkManager18:22
RovingWriteryes jer, it has batteries and generator18:23
drew____thanks alexas . whats above ?18:23
jerRovingWriter, makes me a bit concerned about the health of those batteries after at least 9 years of being powered on18:23
jerunless they can be removed without disrupting power to the machine, then maybe they've been serviced =]18:23
RovingWriterjer, me too. so i asked. one PSU is plugged directly into the wall, one into the UPS...18:24
RovingWriterso they have unplugged the one side over the years, to replace UPS/batteries18:24
drew____it can run with one PSU?18:24
alexas@drew____ above processes are totem and firefox18:24
RovingWriteryeah, redundant PSU18:24
jerah18:24
RovingWriterso, we decided that we're going to rebuild all the services from this machine on a new server, newer version of ubuntu, etc... update everything, and let this server live its life out, logging its uptime via a cronjob, every hour18:25
RovingWritersee how long it can get up to before failing18:25
drew____brilliant18:25
drew____alexas you are on unity or gnome?18:26
alexasi am on gnome me thinks18:27
pavlosRovingWriter: kernel is about 2.6.x18:27
drew____ya if have totem18:27
alexasi suspect you actually laughing at me @drew____18:28
konrados_pavlos: gabrielc - you still here? I have issues with the connection, which... is the problem I'm here iwht :)18:28
konrados_I got disconnected a few times18:28

pavloskonrados_: dmesg | grep enp6s018:29

gabrielc systemd restart networking.service and service restart network does not work (!)18:31

konrados_sec18:33
konrados_pavlos: gabrielc - https://paste.ofcode.org/TgnZXUSK9ye6eeRcwJt4jq18:34
konrados_oh, did I add this flag the right way?18:35
konrados_It will probably disconnect me again in a few minutes, or already did :(18:36
konrados_hmmm, it didn't :)18:36
pavloskonrados_: put just one v like, sudo dhclient -v enp6s018:37
konrados_sec18:37

gabrielckonrados:  what do you want to do? I'm not clear yet18:44
konrados_gabrielc: I have a wire connection. A cable, A rj-45, it used to work on this pc with Windows OS, with Ubuntu it does not18:45
zanshinSolved my slow boot. This article had the solution. tl;dr: Bug in the encrypted18:45
zanshin home setup. Fixing the /etc/crypttab file reduced boot time from 2+ minutes to 918:46
zanshin seconds.y18:46
gabrielckonrados: you have two connections enp6s0 and wlp2s018:46
itdependsnetworkgetting close to my dhcp issue, somehow the route add command is not being hit in the dhclient-script, if I add another one to the top it works fine18:46
itdependsnetworkanyone know where $new_routers comes from in dhclient-script?18:46

geniicase_2501: case_2501 (~case@213.205.194.203) has joined #ubuntu18:49
case_2501Thank you18:49
case_2501Is there anyway of hiding this information?18:49
pavloskonrados_: can you create a new wired connection with NetworkManager and try?18:49
gabrielckonrados:  are you the dhcp server administrator on those network?18:49
geniicase_2501: Ask for an unaffiliated cloak in #freenode ... you'll need a registered name on freenode first before asking however18:50
zanshincase_2501: Depending on the IRC client you have you can filter the join/leave messages18:50
case_2501I'm using Pidgin18:50
konrados_pavlos: - "create a new wired connection" - how? gabrielc - yes, I'm the admin, but a noob18:51

vutrallol18:55

case_2501zanshin: thank you18:57
case_2501I have activated the relevant plugin18:58
supremumhmm, whenever i try opening links (from pdf documents, the shell or hexchat) either nothing happens or firefox opens a blank window. what could be wrong? when opening from pdf i get permission denied error message.18:58
case_2501zanshin: need to somehow verify that it has worked18:59
konrados_gabrielc: no no no, I'm not trying to do anything complicated, I just want the wire connection to start working18:59
konrados_pavlos: - https://paste.ofcode.org/8gRSbRcxCaBXGRTkkRCKUM18:59
pavloskonrados_: how many systems behind the router? can you login to the router and verify that dhcp serves ip's in the range 192.168.1.10-100 your wifi got .14 are there other systems that got .10, .11, ...?19:01
pavloskonrados_: line 18 shows link is connected19:08
gabrielckonrados: do the following test. disconnect the network cable, turn off the wifi using the button, and reconnect the network cable. to know if that way the interface rj45 gets ip address19:10

donofrioI used to ssh -Y hostname, then as my normal access account just ran firefox and it rendered and I logged into my jboss admin console locked to 127.0.0.119:51
donofrioso this is kinda important that I get working because I cannot admin from outside host.....19:52
konrados_pavlos: thanks, tried that but no, it doesn't work :)19:52
gabrielcioria: auto wlp2s0, #ip addr flush wlp2s0 && systemctl restart networking.service and the network breaks19:53
leftyfbdonofrio: I just tested on an ubuntu server running 16.04 that didn't have firefox installed. I installed firefox and all it's deps, ssh -X <host> -t "firefox" worked for me19:53

gabrielcnothing4you : In my experience network-manager does not touch what is defined in /etc/network/interfaces20:17
Nothing4Youis there an easy way to check whether a network manager is running?20:18
gabrielcnothing4you. check http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/nmcli.1.html20:18
gabrielcNothing4You: and http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/wily/man5/nmcli-examples.5.html20:19
Nothing4Youthanks, i'll look into that20:19
Nothing4Youweird20:19
Nothing4Yousays examples nmcli -t -f RUNNING nm20:19
Nothing4Youtells you whether NetworkManager is running or not.20:20

ubottuTo just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software  Development Kit" (SDK).  Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations.21:26

sla3kHi, how would I go about enabling .htaccess in default directory (/var/www/html)? So far, I've created a file in this directory named .htaccess and set the directive AllowOverRide All in the apache2.conf file, restarted the apache server but the headers that I added in .htaccess are not being shown by chrome or FF21:36
saitoh183Alright I will try those tonight... Im not there anymore21:36
DakkusBut okay, after 30 minutes or so of waiting, let's try again.21:36
paddyezgenii: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25179509/21:37
DakkusHey peoples!21:37
DakkusGot 16.04 LTS, would prefer to upgrade.21:37
DakkusAny point-and-click way to do it?21:37
DakkusNo need for this to remain LTS, unless you can convince me that it's better for me.21:37
DakkusBeen using Ubuntu since 2010 or so, but never an LTS before. This computer came preinstalled with the 16.04 LTS (a week ago O.o) and I'd something somewhat more up-to-date, because I like playing newer versions of games such as openttd, widelands and openxcom :)21:37
DakkusThe usual "check for updates, press dist-upgrade" doesn't cut it this time, because I can't get the whole update window visible - presumably because this is an LTS.21:37
Dakkus...or because the last four years or so I've been using Linux Mint, which is Ubuntu based, but also not quite Ubuntu.21:37
geniipaddyez: Do sudo apt-get update ...first21:39
DakkusI have absolutely no problem with CLI, but I often install Ubuntu or Mint to newbies and would prefer knowing how to do things the newb-friendly way as well.21:39
paddyezgenii: I did21:39
DakkusAlso, they are closing this bar with wifi and my own internet connection has mb-based pricing and is rather expensive.21:39
nexiipavlos: thank you21:39
pavlosnexii: yw21:40
Dakkus...and the bar is 14 km from home and I need to walk frigging half a kilometre (well, ok, 750m) of altitude difference to get back home.21:40
paddyezgenii: my command is "sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade"21:41
tomreynDakkus: to upgrade from an lts to non-lts version: on the menu, go to settings -> software & updates -> click on the 'updates' tab, and change the value for "notify me of a new ubuntu version" to "for any new version"21:44
oerhekspaddyez, that ppa seems broken, no direct download21:44
geniipaddyez: Looks like the webupd8team hasn't changed the version to http://download.java.net/java/jdk9/archive/179/binaries/jre-9+179_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz yet21:44
geniiTheir PPA is stil on 17721:45
paddyezgenii: what do I need to add in the sources.list?21:49
geniipaddyez: Nothing. If you feel brave to modify the deb though, I can walk you through it21:54
Dakkustomreyn: Thanks! :)21:56
geniipaddyez: Basically it involves downloading the deb file, opening it, untarring the control.tar.gz file, modifying the version numbers and hashes in the file there called config, then re-tarring, and adding the tar back into the deb21:57
Dakkuspaddyez: genii can surely walk you throught that more precicely, if you explicitly ask him to. The procedure is simple, but has enough steps that people will not start explaining it without being explicitly asked to.21:58
amiriteI just update chrome and now whenever I visit a path that uses flag I get a message that says "Plugin was blocked because it is out of date", is anyone else experiencing this?21:59
paddyezgenii: and Dakkus thanx I only wanted to know if Java 9 is supported on ubuntu22:00
paddyezthe oracle version specific22:00
paddyezit seems not22:01
paddyez1.8 seems to be industrial standard22:02
geniipaddyez: You'll have to wait until Alin Andre from the webupd8team gets around to updating their PPA. In the meantime, maybe file a bug report to that team to speed the process up22:02
oerheks!info openjdk-9-jre22:06
ubottuopenjdk-9-jre (source: openjdk-9): OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT. In component universe, is optional. Version 9~b161-1 (zesty), package size 54 kB, installed size 169 kB22:06
paddyezwell Java 8 is fine for me just 9 broke my dist-upgrade22:07
geniipaddyez: Since PPAs don't have an actual bug report mechanism, use https://launchpad.net/%7Ewebupd8team/+contactuser22:07
paddyezPPA just caused a 40422:08
geniiYou might need to sign up for a Launchpad account first before the link works22:10
paddyezjust do not include PPA Java 9 if it causes a 4022:11
paddyez40422:11
oerheksjust file a bugreport to the maintainer, complaining here does not solve the 40422:12
geniipaddyez: Basically, your options at this point are: Stay on 8 until the PPA updates  or: Modify the deb file with the current info  or: Use openjdk instead22:15
paddyezgenii: yeah22:18
geniipaddyez: I filed a bug report there now. Hopefully they'll fix it in a day or two22:19

hehehewhats its repository key and url?22:58

heheheits a collection of packages23:09
heheheserver shell tools and some more23:10
nacchehehe: if you are asking how to get the cli (or other tools), you want one of mongodb-clients or mongo-tools23:10
