Bashing-omwish^: Back . And in that display for the 2 graphic's cards does it show drivers for each ?00:43
wish^Bashing-om, not that i can read00:49
bray90820If I got s new processor and motherboard would I need to reinstall ubuntu00:54
Bashing-omwish^: Well, that seems to indicate no driver loaded . Really need to confirm this . Can you boot a older normal kernel from grub's boot menu ?00:55
wish^configuration: latency=0 on both the entries00:56
Bashing-omwish^: My display output config line " configuration: driver=nvidia  " where I have the nvidia driver loaded .00:56
wish^Ok so that means I dont have a driver00:56
Bashing-omwish^: Yeah. no driver loaded . What shows from an older nornal kernel ? Maybe we will have to re-install from that current kernel - when we can boot it .00:58
wish^This happened when i tried to install the newest driver from nvidia01:00
wish^on the 4.8 kernel i get driver=nvidia01:01
wish^When i try to boot it still will not work though :(01:09
Bashing-omwish^: Installing from nvidia is not the best thing to do . We do have a trusted PPA with the latest tested/optimized for ubuntu . So I guess next is to remove the Nvidia provided driver and see what results installing 1st from the repo . As we are up in the 4.8 kernel, pastebin for me - lspci -k|grep -iEA5 'vga|3d' - And I will match the driver for the cards .01:09
wish^When i try booting the system is stalling on the Started update UTMP about System Runlevel Changes...pleted startup.p link was shut down01:10
wish^Ok i will do that command01:10
wish^3D Controller: NVIDIA Corp GM107GLM rev a201:13
wish^Kernel driver in use nvidia01:13

oerheks"newest driver nvidia" newest kernel and newest mesa too ?01:20
Bashing-omwish^: 16.04 17.04 as the release . see if that card has support in the repo ( it is in the PPA !) .01:21
wish^16.0401:22
Bashing-om!info nvidia-384 xenial01:22
ubottuPackage nvidia-384 does not exist in xenial01:22
oerheksthat quadro 1000 is supported from 352.63 and up01:23
Bashing-omwish^: ^^ so we get the driver from the PPA . For now try booting the latest kernel with the nomodeset boot paramater/01:24
schultzaWithout deleting everything, is it possible to reinstall ubuntu with a live system? For some reason, I'm runningh 250/250/250 a lot on this computer and iotop, top and mem are not showing the load that uptime is showing. Also, some apps are not responding.01:24
Bashing-om!nomodeset | wish^01:24
ubottuwish^: A 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 parameter01:24
wish^cann i just add it when selecting kernel in grub using 'e' to edit boot options?01:26
Bashing-omwish^: Yes that is the method . from the 'e' mode . Also From Nvidia " Note that many Linux distributions provide their own packages of the NVIDIA Linux Graphics Driver in the distribution's native package management format. This may interact better with the rest of your distribution's framework, and you may want to use this rather than NVIDIA's official package. " .01:28
wish^Am i supposed to just add it nomodeset anywhere in that file?01:30
Bashing-omwish^: as oerheks knows his stuff . we take that ^^ hint that the 384 version is not required . Be much safer to maintain .01:30
wish^Is nomodeset a boot flag or a command?01:41
Bashing-omwish^: It is an argument that grub passes to the kernel to disable kernel mode setting .01:43
wish^OK i managed to boot with nomodeset01:44
wish^But i cannot login :(01:45
wish^Everytime i try to login it restarts gui01:45
Bashing-omwish^: :) Making good progress . What is the name of the file you downloaded ' sudo find / -name "NVIDIA-Linux-*" ' ?01:45
wish^I have not downloaded anything yet01:46
Bashing-omwish^: " Everytime i try to login it restarts gui" At the login screen ' ctl+alt+F1 ' can you log into the system here at this console ?01:47
wish^Yup01:48

Bashing-omwish^: OK ! .. now. ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia | nc termbin.com 9999 ' . The result is a URL back in terminal, pass that link back here .01:53
Bashing-omwish^: Looks like all we have to do is install a graphics driver . Maybe as easy as that :)01:54
wish^http://termbin.com/gt9z01:54
Bashing-omwish^: Yuk ! That shows the 384 version driver installed . Where did you get it from ?01:56
oerheks"newest driver nvidia" sigh..01:56

wish^Bashing-om, oerheks Any ideas what I can do? Should i install a different driver?02:03
oerheksthat quadro 1000 is supported from 352.63 and up, so i don't get it why you wanted newer drivers.02:04
wish^My HDMI port was not working correctly so I thought I would try to update to the newest drivers02:05
wish^370 was working fine so maybe i can just revert to that then?02:05
Bashing-omwish^: want to try a short cut maybe a shot in the dark ? purge and have the system choose what it wants from what it has to choose from for a driver ? Or find out why the 384 version is not working ? Will only take a few minutes to purge/re-install and can hurt nothing to try .02:07
wish^I am up for anything that can help me get my system working again. Thanks02:07
oerheksdepends how you installed this, but yes, go into sources> additional drivers and choose 37002:08
wish^I dont have a gui02:08
Bashing-omwish^: In the interest of getting back to work ' sudo apt purge nvidia* ' then have the system choose ' sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' .02:10
rhcp[cloud]Hello all. I have been looking around on how to install Ubuntu 17.04 on my X99 Rig which has a 980TI and it seems to always boot to some garbage screen. Anyone have direct knowdlge on how to get this done? im trying to dual boot it.02:16
Bashing-om!nomodeset | rhcp[cloud]02:18
ubotturhcp[cloud]: A 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 parameter02:18
rhcp[cloud]Yep. I used this and many other flags to get 17.04 of a macbookPro 8,4 :)02:19
rhcp[cloud]let me check the page02:19
rhcp[cloud]ill try it on there. and report back i guess.02:20
Bashing-omrhcp[cloud]: sounds reasonable :)02:21
wish^Bashing-om, ok all that completed. One error kept popping back W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/kbl_dmc_ver1_01.bin for module i915 which is the driver for my built in gfx chip02:22
wish^But should i try to reboot everything after these commands?02:24
Bashing-omwish^: Consider: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1611124 . All else now good ?02:24

wish^GUI also works02:31
Bashing-omwish^: Great ,, we all sleep better now :)02:32
Bashing-omwish^: What driver did the system choose ?02:32
wish^38402:33
Bashing-omwish^: Well, all I can surmise is something glitched on the former install attempt :(02:34
ShmamWhen I run sudo iwconfig ra0 essid xxxxx key xxxxx I get set failed on ra0 ; no such device02:34
wish^Yea that is probably it02:37
Shmambut the device is listed as ra0 with ifconfig -a02:37
Bashing-omShmam: What release ? systemd ? what shows from terminal command ' ip link ' . Is there a ra0 ?02:38
wish^Again Bashing-om, you really saved me here. Thanks alot02:39
Bashing-omwish^: Welcome . doing these puzzles beats jig saw puzzles - every time :)02:41
wish^I want to learn to solve these things my self, but I have such limited time and so many things to learn.02:42
Bashing-omwish^: Believe me if ya want to and hang in here,,, you will learn :D02:43
wish^I really should learn this stuff, would help me alot in my job aswell. I do web development work02:44
wish^Would be nice to be able to manage servers properly02:46
Bashing-omwish^: Well .. time and effort . man pages are your friend .02:48
jnewt1anyone used a zebra label printer?02:59
rhcp[cloud]Bashing-om: looks like nomodeset did the trick on here too. Was able to install and boot with it. What would I install for 980ti to make things actually work proper ? Thx03:01
Bashing-omrhcp[cloud]: ' sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' Depending ya might get the 384 version driver .03:05
rhcp[cloud]Looks like 37503:07
eelstrebori wish they'd fix this bug where copying large files to a usb attached drive won't hang - kinda hard to backup the internal drive when this happens - i guess i'll have to try rsync since cp -R ain't getting the job done03:07

Bashing-omrhcp[cloud]: 375* is good .03:09

g3Yet the device is in the list of options?05:47
bray90820Do you mean is it in the bios list of options?05:48
g3Correct. It tells you to insert a "proper boot device", and you are able to boot into ubuntu?05:50
bray90820Oh sorrythat's not exactly what I meant you know how when it can't find a boot device it says please insert boot disc and press enter?05:51
g3Yes05:52
bray90820That's what it says05:52
bray90820But I may have some more info for you05:52
bray90820it says error attempt to read or write outside of disk '0'. entering rescue mode grub rescue05:54
bray90820so it failed to load grub I think05:54
g3I'm afraid we're out of my area of knowledge. I'd probably just install on another disk if I had one, or wipe and reinstall05:56
bray90820I have determined it just need to install grub again which is easy to do05:56
bray90820Way easier then reinstalling the system and configure everything back to the easy I had it before05:57
g3Eh. Do it once, ansibilize/ceph it and save it to a repo somewhere. Provision a new one whenever needed05:59

sruliI asked a few times in the past regarding a problem i had that after some idle time my system froze and in tty1 i saw many errors that it could not wrote to lower page.. smart data and test all showed the drive to be perfect, i now decided to change the drive and was shocked to find the it was burnt what can cause this to happen? see images here http://i.imgur.com/5zkqiEI.jpg http://i.imgur.com/EOzzIdO.jpg http://i.imgur.com/MuUbxl2.jpg12:27
nrdbwhy does the command "ssh -f -w 1:1 -o Tunnel=ethernet root@server true" create tun1 interface when the docs. I have read say it should create tap1 interfaces?12:27
metaphysicianioria: using apt preferences? Where can I download the previous packages now? Anything similar to debian snapshot archive?12:27
ioriametaphysician, sorry, wrong  nick12:28
woenxshey, is it possible to see the output of a running cron job?12:43

hachrethanks13:22
laviloolhi guys. I am trying to get apache to enable cors. I added a set header line to htaccess and default conf file but it does not seem to work even after restarting apache and enabling header mode13:41
laviloolanyone has a guide for enabling cors on apache, or any other simple web server for static files on how to enable cors for ubuntu 16?13:43
RonaldsMazitismy keyboard is pressing key "i" sometimes, itself13:43
lavilooli have tried webrick, lightppd, python web server, node web server but non of them worked with cors. (node didn't run at all)13:44
elitedevlavilool: make sure to enable mod_headers (a2enmod headers)13:58
elitedevlavilool: inside your server config add: Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"13:59
elitedevlavilool: or appropriate cors config13:59
elitedevlavilool: https://enable-cors.org/server_apache.html13:59
laviloolelitedev thank you for your reply. I did what you said. it seems to be working.14:05
RonaldsMazitiskey i repeats itself sometimes starts writing itself14:42
RonaldsMazitisnot pressing it or anything14:42
RonaldsMazitisbut only sometimes14:45
pavlosRonaldsMazitis: if wired, change keyboard. if wireless, change batteries14:48

darmehello. i do have gnome with ubuntu, and when my laptop is docked and its comming back from sleep, if laptop lid is closed it goes sleep again :)14:56
darmeany solution? :)14:56
pavlosRonaldsMazitis: laptop model? is there a BIOS update you need to apply?14:59
ducassedarme: perhaps the HandleLidSwitchDocked setting in /etc/systemd/logind.conf affects this, not sure14:59

dedzeHello, I have Ubuntu 16.4 and when I try to run software updater it stops and tells me "requires installation of untrusted package". And when I try to do the updates from Ubuntu Software, it always fails15:02
dedzeAlso the only software that I installed that wasnt in the Ubuntu Software app, was skype but apparently it's in my allowed sources in Software & Updates15:04
dedzeI would like to do the system updates anyways, is there an other way?15:04
pavlosdedze: can you update via terminal? ... sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade15:08
dedzepavlos: I haven't tried that but I found that it was the skype update blocking it all.15:11
dedzepavlos: should I worry about this?15:12
pavlosdedze: The output of 'sudo apt update' would tell you what's missing15:16
minimecdedze: What version of skype did you install? Because version 4.3.0... is not working any longer anyway. So in case you use the old version, uninstall it, remove the repository in /etc/apt/sources.list.d and install the version from this site https://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-linux/ I do not have an 'untrusted software' problem with this version.15:19
dedzeminimec: I have skype 5.3.0.115:20
minimecdedze: Ok. Strange that you get this error. I installed this version on multiple computers and never got this error.15:20
akikdedze: when i installed skype, it didn't install the repo public key15:21
dedzepavlos: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25213808/      that whats the terminal gives15:22
akikdedze: i needed to "sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 1F3045A5DF7587C3"15:22
dedzeakik: I'm so new to ubuntu so maybe I thought skype is allowed to do update but it's not?15:23
pavlosdedze: https://askubuntu.com/questions/909312/skype-update-error-when-running-apt-update15:23
akikdedze: when i installed skype, it didn't install the repo public key <- that is causing your proble15:23
minimecdedze: I would download that skype package again and reinstall it. That will probably add the missing key.15:23
dedzeakik: but in Software & Updates > Other Software, there is a v next to https://repo.skype.com/deb stable main15:24
akiki just gave you the command which fixes it15:24
dedzeakik: so to confirm, I enter "sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 1F3045A5DF7587C3" in the terminal and it will allow skype to be update?15:26
akikdedze: yes15:27
dedzeakik: Oki it's done, I redid sudo apt update, now I have to do sudo apt upgrade?15:29
akikdedze: run the task that failed previously15:29
dedzeOki15:30
daveomcdhow can I set up my ubuntu server to remove files from a directory every friday at 3am?15:30
dedzeIt worked, thanks akik pavlos and minimec !!15:32
pavlosdaveomcd: make a cron entry, 0 3 * * 5 (that's every Friday 3am) and call the script to delete files.15:35
GrandPa-GI would like to assign $? to a shell script variable. I tried the obvious x = $? but I get x is not a command error. What is the correct way?15:36
Posterif you're using bash, something like RETVAL=$?15:41
Posterthen you can call $RETVAL later15:41
PosterI do that often to ensure commands complete successfully15:41
nemoso... my coworker's laptop has frozen up for about the twentieth time with ubuntu - as with all the other times, it has locked up and corrupted his partition.15:42
nemothe lockups seem related to suspend and were 100% guaranteed to happen if he accidentally clicked the suspend icon in unity or closed laptop lid in 4.915:42
nemoin 4.10 kernel, it seems fine for a while, then suddenly does exact same thing.  he's developed a seething hatred of ubuntu at this point, but I think keeps trying out of grim masochism15:43
nemoI dropped by to bring it up again, just 'cause the ubuntu hardware test page is extremely misleading in this case.  it just notes "hibernate doesn't work"15:44
GrandPa-GPoster: I put in  RETVAL = $? and get ./ping.sh: line 8: RETVAL: command not found15:44
nemonot "suspend *and* hibernate will corrupt your install entirely if triggered.  oh, and 4.10 kernel will do it randomly anyway"15:44
PosterGrandPa-G: copy it verbatim, no spaces RETVAL=$?15:45
GrandPa-GPoster: works. What is the difference? why does white space count? Is it just the left side that makes a difference?15:45
nemoah. seems by miracle the most recent lockup did not corrupt is partition.  but still happens 90% of the time tho15:46
PosterRETVAL without an equal sign is interpreted as a command, I suggest reading up on bash scripting for more details15:46
GrandPa-GPoster: oky doky. thanks15:47
nemohttps://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201606-22367/  here's the laptop that's been driving him bonkers if someone wants to slap a big warning sign on it "warning, do not buy to install ubuntu yourself - it will make your life a living hell and eat all your data"15:49
nemosays linux ready if "installed by manufacturer" perhaps true, if such a thing could be bought, but definitely not true if done yourself15:50
nemohm... page now says standard images may not work - that's new?  maybe someone is putting warnings on it. good :)15:50

SimoniousYou are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 9.0.1 is available.16:15
axslayer33Is anyone here familiar with adding an Ubuntu computer to a Windows AD network?16:15
nemoSimonious: besides the bot muting you for copy/paste fail, seems like you're totally in the wrong channel - pip isn't an ubuntu thing16:18
nemowould be #python or somesuch presumably16:18
axslayer33I guess I'm in the wrong channel too since I'm getting 0 replies.16:19
itdependsnetworkIt looks like over the weekend 2.4.7-1ubuntu4.16 was replaced by 2.4.7-1ubuntu4.17, however when I apt install it is still pointing to .1616:19
gabrielcaxslayer33: see if helps https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/sssd-ad.html16:19
itdependsnetworksorry, missed the apache2 part :) apache2-bin_2.4.7-1ubuntu4.16_i386.deb16:20
axslayer33Tried that, at sudo net ads -k, it tells me "Failed: An internal error occured"16:21
axslayer33Exact error: "failed to join domain: failed to look up DC in for domain an internal error occured". I can ping the domain by name, realm tells me I'm already connected16:23

gabrielcaxslayer33: https://askubuntu.com/questions/790377/trouble-joining-an-active-directory-domain16:25
axslayer33Also everytime I tell it do something related it tells me "ignoring unknown parameter: cient use spnego"16:26
Simoniousnemo: I've got pip on ubuntu16:26
* Simonious shrugs16:26
SimoniousI had literall already put it in pastebin too https://pastebin.com/LgTvXSj516:26
gabrielcaxslayer33: copy paste the error on google and read16:27
axslayer33I've been doing that for three days....16:27
axslayer33Anyway, I *refollowed* the second link and have two things of note.16:28
axslayer33One, it's yelling at me that it failed to initialize kerbereos content. I think I know why this happened, I don't know how to undo it - in the kerberos conf file, I found references to a boatload of domains at MIT.16:29
axslayer33I'm not at MIT, so I removed them. Do I just redo apt-get krb5 to repair the file?16:29
axslayer33Two, it's now telling me failed due to memory allocation error....which is highly likely, since the ADC is virtual16:29
gabrielcaxslayer33: with "apt-get purge krb5" you remove the package and the configuration files16:30
axslayer33ok16:31
GrandPa-Gis there an easy way to setup crontab to schedule jobs relative to when the system boots, rather than on the specific hour, minute?16:31
gabrielcGrandPA-G: you can run a script on background, at boot, and the script the script will take care of the rest16:33
nemoGrandPa-G: what gabrielc said - at least in past rc.local was the place to do that - no idea if that's still case in brace new systemd world or not16:33
axslayer33dammit, now I'm back to internal error16:34
axslayer33and there's no existing device in AD Control16:34
nemoGrandPa-G: you could presumably also have a cronjob that checked "uptime"16:34
gabrielcaslayer33: check the logs on the ad server too16:34
samlamammaHi. I get hard crashes and extreme graphical bugs ever since I upgraded to 16.10 from 14.04. I'm on kernel 4.9, could it be a kernel bug? I'm using an i7-2640M w/ integrated Intel graphics16:34
nemoGrandPa-G: /proc/uptime that is...16:35
samlamammathe hard crashes 'manifest' themselves by the screen being stuck, no sound, no ability to interact with the rest of the system.16:35
itdependsnetworkwhat tells apt-get to point to a new file?16:36
nemosamlamamma: can you ssh in at least? that would help w/ debug16:36
nemosamlamamma: for checking dmes and xsession errors and xorg log...16:36
pavlosGrandPa-G: you can enable rc.local in systemd, then add to /etc/rc.local some sleep time and your commands, make sure you exit 016:36
gabrielcGrandPA-G: the script running in the background can use a "for" or "while" and run all the time16:36
nemoew16:36
samlamammanemo:Good question, I'll try to do that next time it happens. I *did* get an error just 10 minutes ago when the first crash (There's usually 2 in succession, one 'soft' that it recovers from and then one hard) which said "drm_atomic_helper_commit_cleanup_done ERROR flip timed_out", I googled that and it seems kernel-related.16:38
ioriasamlamamma, ubuntu does not use 4.9 kernel  and yakkety (16.10)  is dead (eol)16:40
samlamammaI'm gonna go ahead and try out my hypothesis and jump down a couple of kernel versions and see if I can get it to crash.16:40
nemosamlamamma: if it's any comfort - at least you don't have it as bad as my coworker.  his crashes *and* corrupts his HD16:40
samlamammaioria: I think I did a manual install of 4.9 after the crashes showed up (it was a year or so ago since I installed 16.10)16:40
nemosamlamamma: I just suggested he try trusty, since he's tried basically everything else16:40
samlamammaYeah, I might just as well upgrade.16:41
ioriasamlamamma, yes, so upgrade or fresh install16:41
ioriasamlamamma,  i'd try from livecd Zesty16:42
samlamammaioria:My set-up makes it a bit painful to do fresh installs unfortunately. I might just get a new HDD soon and do a fresh install with that.16:42
ioriasamlamamma,  ok16:43
samlamammaAnyway, thanks for the reality check. I thinkwhat you guys are saying sounds reasonable.16:43
axslayer33God dammit, now I've got an error that isn't appearing in google16:44
axslayer33Failed to join domain: failed to join domain 'EXCHANGE' over rpc: None of the information to be translated has been translated.16:45

gabrielcaxslayer33: have you configured the firewalls to allow the relevant connections?16:46
Guest45462Hi. For some reason setting vi controls in .inputrc for mysql doesn't work on ubuntu xenial. Any idea why it may be?16:46
axslayer33there are none, it's two virtual machines in a guest.16:46
axslayer33I can ping it by domain name, this doesn't make any sense16:47
axslayer33klist gives me a kerberos ticket16:47
axslayer33They can see each other, *why won't this last step work*16:47
gabrielcaxslayer33:  have the both machines turned off the firewall?16:48
gabrielcaxslayer33: both have the same date and time?16:49
axslayer33Yes16:49
valhalla_22help please!!  few days ago i was connected to   deep web sites via TOR , just out of  laziness  I didnt refresh my tor connection , I don't remember properly , my computer was in on mode for about 7 days , then on 8th day , when i restarted my ubuntu , i got this error " Setup Error end kernel panic - not syncing vfs unable to mount root fs on unknown block"  and my system just freeze there like its end of world .16:49
gabrielcaxslayer33: sometimes when errors do not appear in google it is usually that one made a typo16:50
axslayer33annnnnnd I'm back to internal error.16:52
axslayer33wait16:52
nemovalhalla_22: no idea about the tor stuff or why it would be related, but if your partition is screwed up, boot off a USB drive and fsck it16:53
nemoor use the grub recovery options ubuntu includes, but boot usb is usually easier16:54
valhalla_22ty nemo , i tried on SO but didnt got answer , how to diagnose the thign .16:55

fedorafanyoure right17:43
Southern_Gentlemlinux is linux17:43
mutanteif it was an actual kernel issue that would be true, but if it's not, not at all17:44

fedorafanSouthern_Gentlem thanks this workaround is nice enough for now17:47
fedorafannow im here17:49
fedorafanhow to roll back to 4.817:49

naccfedorafan: and how did you install those kernels?17:54
fedorafanI didnt do that17:54
oerheksmaybe synaptic is a help, but i guess you need to reinstall17:54
fedorafanjust always updated17:54
fedorafanI mean it was an automatic process17:54
oerhekserr no, 4.10 does not come with 16.0.x17:54
fedorafanI didnt do anything17:54
fedorafanjust there are updates ok let them play17:55
naccfedorafan: that's not true, or something else was done that you're not mentioning17:55
fedorafanhmm ok17:55

pankajI am using 'mail' utility for local mail delivery. After typing 'mail' I get the list of mails in INBOX but the 'd' for delete command does not delete mail. When does it delete the deleted marked messages?18:19
lotuspsychjefedorafan: wich kernel are you on now?18:19
fedorafan4.10.27/2818:19
sobersabrefedorafan: the auto-update is annoying indeed.18:19
sobersabreyou can downgrade though.18:20
sobersabreand you can choose other kernels during the grub boot.18:20
fedorafanyeah something like that18:20
sobersabrefedorafan: unless you deleted them.18:20
sobersabrepankaj: is this a schools/uni exam question ?18:20
fedorafannot me myself18:20
fedorafanbut there are not shown anymore18:20
sobersabrefedorafan: you can also install specific version of package.18:21
sobersabreif you need that kernel.18:21
sobersabrethe safest path is to manage content your machine gets, i.e. serve a limited focused mirror.18:21
fedorafanwell what to do if I want to install the older kernel18:21
pankajsobersabre: I didn't understand?18:21

cipher6lotuspsychje, um... will brasero make ubuntu recognize my optical drive?18:24
cipher6pavlos why can't i just use dd?18:24
fedorafanok18:24
cipher6this is a fundamental issue w/ ubuntu not recognizing my cd/dvd rom18:24
pankajsobersabre: That what I know but it is not happening even after I quit the terminal and started again.18:24
pavloscipher6: dd may give you a message, /dev/dvd (or cdrom) is read only18:25

sobersabreincorrectly that is.18:26
ioriafedorafan,  can you paste apt-cache policy linux-generic ?18:26
cipher6pavlos, no it tells me failed to open no medium found18:26
fedorafanI try18:26
pankajsobersabre: I checked the /var/mail/user_name. These files contain INBOX mails. They have their individual user and group permission. Not root permission.18:27
pavloscipher6: so there is no CD in the cdrom drive ...18:27
cipher6pavlos, There is a DVD in the DVD rom drive. Ubuntu does not recognize the disk drive. That's what i'm asking for help with18:27
lotuspsychjeioria: latest .2 iso got me also into kernel 4.8, seems like systems caming from .1 still have 4.418:27
geniicipher6: dd doesn't work with CD/DVD drives because the drives need additional instructions to them and not just a raw copy like hard drives/usb sticks18:28
pavloscipher6: is there any info posted in dmesg ?18:28
iorialotuspsychje, yes, but he got 4.1018:28
lotuspsychjeioria: weird heh18:28

cipher6so it's at least recognizing the other disks18:32
lotuspsychjecipher6: try brasero started from a terminal, it might give you errors? perhaps with a running tail -f /var/log/syslog also?18:33
lotuspsychjecipher6: bios recognizes your cd/dvd?18:34
geniicipher6: When this happens, and you know for certain the disk is blank, then the usual cuplrit is it's something like a DVD- or DVD+ or other format your drive doesn't recognize (18:34
cipher6lotuspsychje, yes, I installed ubuntu from the Cd drive, so I know for a fact it works,18:35
lotuspsychjecipher6: ok good then it might be relevant what genii suggests18:35
cipher6genii, both disks are from the same spool, one was authored on a windows boot, one is blank18:35
pankajWhat is the use of 'Opensmtpd' service. On Debian I could send mail locally as soon as I installed it. But on ubuntu It additionally demands this service to be added.18:35

oerhekslshw, lspci, lsusb, hostenamectl, " lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net "  gives wireless info + driver20:29
minimecnavoj: Could be that your wifi device goes into 'power save' mode and cannot wake up correctly again. We would need info about your wifi hardware. Install the software pasteinit 'sudo apt install pasteinit' and then do 'lspci | pasteinit' or 'lsusb | pasteinit' in case you use a USB wifi dongle. PAste the link you get here in the channel20:37

navojminimec give me a second to try it :)20:42
navojminimec: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25215591/20:43
minimecnavoj: As first try you could do 'iwconfig' in a terminal to get your wifi device name. Then try 'sudo iwconfig <device name> power off'. That should disable power managment for the device temporarily until next boot.20:44
navojminimec: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25215603/20:45

WhisketHi I upgraded 14.04.1 to 14.04.5 but when I run uname -a it still shows that it's on the old kernel and 14.04.1. /etc/os-release and lsb_release show 14.04.5. Does anyone know what happened and why I didn't get the new kernel?22:39
WhisketI know I can update to it but I'm wondering why it didn't automatically go from 4.2 to 4.422:39
tgm4883Whisket: what did you originally install?22:40
tgm488314.04 or 14.04.1?22:40
MittensGuys thank youuu22:40
Mittensbahzang, thanks again22:41
Mittensit was my FLASH issue22:41
Mittenssorry about the confusion, something must've happend that blocked my flash from working on that site22:41
Whiskettgm4883: It looks like I originally installed 14.04.422:43
tgm4883Whisket: hmm, that should have installed the new kernel. I don't have any 14.04 servers to check, can you pastebin 'dpkg -l | grep linux'22:45
pedahzurThe latest grub update in 16.04 is appearing to break unattended upgrades.  Apt hangs, and in /var/log/apt/term.log there is a big message about "The grub-pc package is being upgraded. Thismenu allows you to select which devices you'd like grub-install to be automatically run for, if any .... ETC."  Aren't prompts supposed to be disabled for unattended upgrades?  Has this bug been reported yet?22:45
Whiskettgm4883: https://pastebin.com/LFMBAniZ22:46
WhisketI have multiple of these machines running 14.04.4 that are all based on a VM template. I can run another dist-upgrade to see what happens. I wasn't really paying much attention the first time22:49
Bashing-omWhisket: wait for tgm4883 but ya got a lot of cleanup ( ii  linux-generic-lts-wily  ) to do and fixing in place !22:50
tgm4883Whisket: Bashing-om: good catch, that's probably it. I was trying to find how the HWE was handled back in 14.04, it's change in 16.0422:55
tgm4883Whisket: It does mention specifying the package to install here  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Ubuntu_14.04_LTS_-_Trusty_Tahr   So I would guess that in 14.04 that didn't update automatically and that it was changed for 16.0422:56
Bashing-omtgm4883: Did not look real close but did not notice that HWE was enabled in that install . I did not see linux-image-generic packages either .22:57
tgm4883Bashing-om: AFAICT, there are no hwe named packages in 14.0422:58
tgm4883Bashing-om: the "linux-generic-lts-wily" is the 14.04 naming22:58
zanshinAny urxvt fans here? I've got it installed and configured, but my favorite monospace font, Hack, is rendering with an extra space between each character displayed. I'm not sure why.23:00
WhisketBashing-om: tgm4883: Okay this is good info. I was looking at the release notes (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes) which said 'By default, the 14.04.5 point release will ship with a newer 4.4 Linux kernel from Ubuntu 16.04' and I just assumed the upgrade included that as well.23:01
tgm4883Whisket: ah, that would be for fresh installs only. You can install it separately if you want23:01
pedahzurAh, crud. appears it wasn't unattended upgrades...not sure what was going on, but the cause was elsewhere.23:02
Whisketokay great! I think this all makes sense now. Thanks for you help tgm4483 & Bashing-om !23:04
Bashing-omWhisket: .. still the need is to remove the 15.10 ( End_Of_Life) packaging .. and get you up on current packaging .23:06
