[00:10] wouldn't be the first time this helped fix dhcp ;) [00:11] I am running 16.04LTS and am trying to connect to a Western Digital NAS that is plugged into my wireless router. Ubuntu will see the folders on teh drive but will not allow me to connect as it asks for credentials. I have used every combination that I can think of with no luck. I have been able to connect by allowing guest login, but I don't want that all the time. I also tried to make a new account in the router to allow read/write [00:11] access but that also didn't work. Can anyone offer any suggestions? [00:16] Zemmy_: i assume you were able to connect to that NAS and access your files there before? when it worked, how did you do it? [00:17] also which product is it precisely. [00:17] I was using a Windows laptop. [00:17] with some vendor specific software on it? [00:18] It is an Asus TM-AC1900 router supplied by T-Mobile [00:19] and the NAS is attached to the router how? via usb or network? [00:19] USB [00:19] Zemmy_: does it not have a network interface then? [00:20] Zemmy_: how are you trying to connect? SMB? NFS? FTP? SFTP? [00:20] Zemmy_: btw, hi :) [00:20] Hi lefty [00:20] So probably some SMB other daemon on the router [00:21] the page is titled "USB Application - Network Place (Samba) Share" [00:21] ok, Samba/SMB [00:21] Zemmy_: what'S the product name of the NAS exactly? [00:21] It is an Asus TM-AC1900 router supplied by T-Mobile [00:22] Zemmy_: that's your router, not your storage [00:22] NAS= network attached storage [00:23] which normally suggests it has a network interface card / chip and a network jack. [00:23] tomreyn: The storage is an external USB which is plugged into the router, which shaes the drive to the network [00:23] Oh, sorry. I read that wrong. Western Digital My Book [00:23] its plugged into the USB port on the router [00:23] okay right that's not NAS, just an external HDD [00:25] ahh, OK. [00:25] Zemmy_: on windows, did you have some software by t-mobile or asus installed to support your router or its configuration? [00:25] no [00:25] I did all the work by pointing to it in Chrome [00:26] "cellspot.router" takes me there [00:27] when starting Ubuntu the entire drive appears and when I try to access it Ubuntu asks for credentials [00:29] Zemmy_: okay, so what i don't understand yet is that you say you had it set to guest access temporarily but you liked it better when it was somehow different. when it was somehow different, how did it work then? [00:30] Zemmy_: my point is that if you accessed it from windows before, and there were credentials configured to access it on your router, then you must have entered those crdentials in windows (and it stored /cached them), and you'd need the same credentials to access from linux now. [00:31] the only way to connec to the drives from the Ubuntu computer is to set it to guest access. From my Windows machine no such change is necessary and I can access the files [00:31] and you can probably configure different credentials on the asus routers' web interface [00:32] the only credentials I have entered are the username and password to access the router settings. those credentials do not work on the Ubuntu machine [00:33] I attempted to make another user account for the Ubuntu machine but I am still asked for credentials when trying to access it from Ubuntu [00:33] "Password required for share documents on 192.xxx.xxx.xxx" [00:38] Since Samba was involved I was wondering if there was something in Ubuntu that I wasn't aware of [00:38] Zemmy_: try this: on the router's web interface, go to "usb application", "servers center", "network place". [00:38] Zemmy_: that's where you should be able to configure a user whose credentials you'll use on ubuntu [00:40] is there a chance I would need to reboot Ubuntu for it to work? [00:40] <[n0mad]> doubtful [00:40] Zemmy_: not really, no. did you try what i suggested, though? [00:42] yes. I created an account giving it Read/Write to the necessary folders but it still asks for the password [00:42] you may need to select "share with account" on that screen to be able to configure an account [00:42] himom: Please pastebin the output of "dmesg" after or while you're seeing these artifacts. [00:42] Zemmy_: hmm, well, it might be you need to restart the router, but i would think not. it's worth a try rebooting both the router and ubuntu at this point, though. [00:43] thanks. I will try. [00:43] Zemmy_: you could also try to access the files using the FTP protocol instead of SMB (which you were trying so far) [00:44] if it still fails I will explore that. [00:50] luckily this thing is vulnerable to CVE-2017-7494 so you can just get remote code execution if needed ;) [00:52] <[n0mad]> lol [00:53] tomreyn: I'm sure it's a feature! [00:53] i'm sure t-mobile thinks so, too [00:53] is it safe to show people my dmesg? [00:54] safe: yes, usually. if you worry a lot about privacy, though, maybe you need to strip some serials nad MAC addresses. [00:55] that would be a lot of stripping though? [00:56] Hi, could someone take a look at this problem I am having//., [00:56] oops [00:57] well, anyway, trying to reinstall ubuntu and having trouble partitioning [00:57] what's wrong? [00:58] I dont understand what these SCSI things mean, the latter picture. Do they refer to the same partitions, on the upper picture, that are formatted as ext4 and linux-swap? [00:58] http://imgur.com/a/SyAin [01:00] the guided partitioning thing offers those SCSI partitions, when I choose reinstall ubuntu [01:01] it says partition 7 on sda - that is sda7 [01:01] hal9002: "SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda)" refers to your first hard disk. please be sure to have current backups before proceeding. [01:01] so look at the numbers [01:01] oh, okay [01:01] sda, sdb, sdc that's which disk [01:02] 0, 1, 2, 3... that's which partition [01:02] don't worry that it says SCSI, check which partitions on which disks you edited to make sure you didn't make a mistake [01:03] strange, fdisk -l claims there is no partition sda7 [01:03] what a mess .. 1.84 gb and 2.44 gb unallocated [01:03] oerheks, I supposedly need to leave them as such. Using a mac, alas [01:03] hal9002: I think it means it will create one doesn' it? [01:03] himom, probably, yeah [01:04] well, thats not ideal, I suppose I will just manually edit the partition table then [01:04] hal9002: if you created a partition there with ext4 file system then you know it's the one you made [01:04] hal9002: but the changes are not applied yet until you accept everything [01:04] okay [01:04] thanks [01:04] i read sda5 will be reused, and sda7 will come on the 1st piece unallocated.. if you hit continue [01:05] 1.84 gb is really not enough [01:05] yup [01:06] Jordan_U: I know you try to help and thanks for that, but I'm not sure if it's safe to send this. Nothing changes in dmsg when I run those 3d apps that display artifacts [01:07] oerheks, actually, those small unallocated partitions had something to do with optimizing SSD performance, not os x, but anyway [01:08] anyway, thanks for your help oerheks and himom. I think I might manage it from here [01:08] good luck! [01:08] thanks :D [01:12] oerheks: do you remember my problem with artifacts? I tested Ubuntu live usb and on 16.04.1 it doesn't happen at all, on 16.04.3 it happens in Blender but not in games (so still better than on my 17.04. Do you know what that could mean? Maybe it's the kernel, but even then what do I do? [01:13] himom: If you can narrow it down to being the kernel then a process called bisection could tell you exactly what change to the kernel introduced the problem, if you're willing to do the work required to find out. [01:14] Not really, all you can do is wait for amdgpu support for 4.10 [01:14] Jordan_U: how can I do that? === Schnabel1 is now known as Schnabeltierchen [01:15] oerheks: that is sad. I hope that's not true and that there is some way. Being dependent from a single company that has failed me in the past with their drivers is probably the worst thing that could happen in this case [01:16] himom: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection [01:18] himom: I expect that you'll get the best results testing from Ubuntu 16.04.1 and not upgrading anything other than the kernel. [01:18] Jordan_U: interesting, so it's like a binary search [01:18] himom: Exactly that, yes. [01:18] Jordan_U: this sounds like a great method. If I learn the exact version that starts causing the problem what will this information give me? [01:21] himom: In the best case it will tell you exactly what change caused the problem and you'll be able to just revert that change and use the latest kernel with just a single patch reverting the small change. More likely it won't be quite that simple but knowing a commit that makes the problem worse will probably give developers a very strong hint as to what the underlying problem is. [01:22] Jordan_U: that's awesome! I will try it then [01:23] Jordan_U: thanks for help [01:25] himom: You're welcome. When you do file a bug report please subscribe me to it, user jordanu . [01:26] Jordan_U: ok, I will! where should I file the report once I find out which version is causing the problem? [01:27] Jordan_U: one more thing: can I install kernels on live usb with persistence or do I need to install the OS on a hard drive? [01:32] himom: You can boot different kernel images from a LiveUSB but in that case persistance would actually likely just confuse you rather than make it easier to do so. It would be a manual process of changing the grub.cfg to point to the new kernel image, and you would *not* (for sanity's sake) want that new kernel image to be part of the "persistant" filesystem. [01:37] Jordan_U: I see [01:40] himom: You can do a normal installation to a USB drive. Main downside is that it will likely be *very* slow and may replace the UEFI boot entry for your internal drive (which can be fixed by using the USB install's grub to boot the internal Ubuntu, then running "sudo grub-install"). [01:43] Jordan_U: live usb seems like a better option then [01:46] noob question: if i get a dual band router should i get a dual band wirelss network adapter? [01:47] where else can i ask this? [01:47] ohlolz: if and only if you want to use 5GHz and 2.4GHz. You can get by with just a 2.4GHz adapter. ##networking is probably a better place to ask this though [01:47] teward: i'm getting lower wifi speed in 2.4Hz [01:48] so should i change both? the router and adapter? [01:50] himom: So then after "installing" a test kernel package copy the kernel and initramfs from /boot/ to the USB drive's fat32 partition, which should be mounted to /cdrom/ when you're booted from the LiveUSB, and edit /cdrom/boot/grub/grub.cfg adding an entry for booting your test kernel and initramfs. [01:53] ohlolz: i'd try just the adapter first, but keep in mind that "lower wifi speed" isn't necessarily the router OR the wifi adapter's fault. And you haven't stated if you're on Ubuntu or not, so unless you're on Ubuntu I can't help you here :p [01:53] Jordan_U: which files for each kernel do I have to copy from /boot ? [01:54] teward: why the adapter first? if the router doesn't have 5GHz? [01:57] himom: /boot/vmlinuz-VERSION and /boot/initrd.img-VERSION . [01:59] ohlolz: i have my reasons for suggesting the adapter first - but 5GHz isn't going to give you much of a speed boost compared to 2.4GHz for the average residential network and average consumer router. [02:01] Jordan_U: in Ubuntu repo there are kernels 4.8.x and 4.10.x but no 4.9. Does that mean I'm missing something or they just didn't use that version? === Kitlith_ is now known as Kitlith [02:03] himom: It's likely that they didn't use that version. I'm realizing that looking at the instructions these instructions only test Ubuntu changes, where a single commit could take you from one major kernel release to another. If the problem doesn't start with one of the smaller Ubuntu changes you may need to switch to bisecting the upstream git tree. [02:06] Jordan_U: ok I see. Should I use kernels from here https://www.kernel.org/ or from here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline or it doesn't matter? [02:17] himom: You would use the git repository git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git . [02:23] Jordan_U: I'm gonna try those kernels now, thanks! [02:53] hi has anyone had any issues mount smb shares hosted from a Sierra 10.12.6 client on 16.04? [02:53] Hello? Could you guys help me with my Ubuntu install? [02:58] I made a live USB that works fine on my other machine but in my new acer it boots past he bios and gives a blank screen. I looks like the boot screen where you get a bunch of text reports as unbuntu starts, but it just sits there. [03:11] fearnothing: Acer: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2330267 <- set "trust" on the Ubuntu/grub .efi files. [03:21] Hello. If I wanted to change the partition my system uses for swap, all I need to do is turn swap off and change the entry in /etc/fstab right? [03:21] My system wont fail to boot? [03:24] Era: you can do swapoff for existing, change fstab, then do swapon -a , and if that succeeds then you should be fine. Swap is not required for booting [03:25] Ok, Thanks [03:30] do you guys offer support here? [03:31] can't boot into ubuntu, get the error "end kernel panic - not syncing VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block" [03:31] i tried some things with a live usb but it didnt work === Servant is now known as Mittens [03:32] bex: Is this after a fresh installation of Ubuntu? [03:33] no but after a reboot [03:34] bex: So you installed Ubuntu, rebooted once and it worked, but then the second time you tried to boot after installing it failed? [03:34] no it's been working fine for a while [03:35] i think there was a problem with upgrading [03:35] bex: Upgrading to a new release of Ubuntu or just updates within a release? [03:35] within [03:36] I have installed Ubuntu and I get a blank screen on boot. issue with my gfx card. how to solve? [03:36] bex: Have you tried selecting "Advanced Options for Ubuntu" at the grub menu and selecting the third entry (which will be the second most recent kernel)? [03:37] yes i tried all of them i think but it doesnt boot [03:37] bex: What things did you try from a LiveUSB?

[03:40] hey guys, i just installed ubuntu mate on a tablet and im trying to tether my android phone for internet access, but only get local network access (can ping my other pc and router but not google.com) [03:41] i've tried bringing it up with ip link but it goes into state=unknown [03:41] also tried to create a neew network file in systemd/network but that didnt work [03:41] jcbitter: Is the phone acting as a Wireless AP or are you connecting by USB / Bluetooth? [03:42] USB tethering, phone is connected to home wifi [03:42] cant connect to wifi with tablet because i need to get some packages and drivers for it to work [03:43] HarendraSingh: A fresh install ? Try booting with "nomodeset" and install the proprietary driver if this is nvidia . [03:43] jcbitter: Your phone likely won't act as a gateway when it's connected via wifi rather than 3g/4g. [03:44] oh damn :/ i was afraid that might be it lol, im gonna have to go pay for data [03:46] jcbitter: Or you could download the packages and transfer them to the tablet via USB. [03:46] jcbitter: Or actually, try manually adding your router as the default gateway. Should work fine. [03:47] how would i go about adding my router as the default gateway? [03:50] jcbitter: First, check that you don't already have a default route by running "ip route list". [03:51] nop [03:51] using a different one [03:51] jcbitter: If you don't, then run "sudo ip route add default via XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX" substituting in the ip address of your router. [03:52] which is usually 192.168.0.1? [03:52] i can't figure out how to run bootinfoscript. i copied it to another usb stick [03:52] and mounted it [03:52] jcbitter: Usually, yes. [03:55] jcbitter: Then "sudo ip route delete default via XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX" where you're substituting the ip address of your old default route (probably your phone's ip). [03:56] the first command gives me a Network is unreachable [03:57] Jordan_U, btw thanks for the assist with this [03:57] jcbitter: What is the exact command you ran? [03:57] sudo ip route add default via 192.168.0.1 [04:00] jcbitter: And you can ping 192.168.0.1? [04:00] yup [04:03] jcbitter: What is the device name of the connection to your phone? [04:04] jcbitter: Try "sudo ip route add default via 192.168.0.1 dev DEVICE" [04:05] looks like it doesnt want to work, i'll go with your first advice and get the packages on my arch box and pass them via usb [04:23] "hexdump" could not be found. "mawk v1.3.3" has known bugs. Install mawk v.13.4 or newer or use gawk instead. [04:23] this when trying to run boot info script [04:23] couldnt install gawk because it wants me to put in an ubuntu cd but i only have it on a usb stick [04:26] bex: Comment out the CD entries in /etc/apt/source.list then "sudo apt update" then "sudo apt install gawk". === r0Oter is now known as r00ter [05:17] is systemd evil? [05:21] hi [05:22] I'm going to install a base Ubuntu system and then install and config as much as possible with ansible [05:23] I tried to install Ubuntu desktop with LVM, but I couldn't start the installer in advanced mode [05:24] so I've installed server edition instead, now how can I set up my wifi from cli just to clone my config repo from github? [05:24] I have ip and iw commands, but nothing network manager, etc [05:26] I can see the wlan nic with 'ip link' [05:29] leventel: See "man nmcli" for how to add connections via nmcli. [05:31] Jordan_U: thanks, but I have not installed nm yet [05:31] Jordan_U: should I install it at the base server installation? [05:38] leventel: It's up to your requirements when you install it as far as I can tell. [05:41] Jordan_U: it seems to me that wpa_supplicant is a necessary at least... thanks for your help [05:43] leventel: You're welcome. === juboxi is now known as jubo2 [07:34] Hi, Can anyone help me? I have ubuntu 14.04 lts samba server and wanna make guest users to connect to shared folder but also wants to give 2-3 people with account limited access to it. Network users will be on pc and mac [07:58] Greetings, I'm having a bit of trouble with an Nvidia Multi-Monitor setup on Lubuntu v16.04.2 (I have been to #Lubuntu, hehe). I don't mind whether I use two Xscreens or just one, but I need to span a wallpaper between both screens, and have both screens function after login. Currently the best I have is one Xscreen with a tiled wallpaper, but the secondary monitor disables *after* I've logged [07:58] in. [07:59] At the login screen, everything appears to function fine. No amount of toiling with xorg.conf has remedied the issue thus far. [08:05] The fact it seems to work flawlessly at the login screen, suggests (in my limited experience) there is a file hiding somewhere within my User account that's over-riding /etc/X11/xorg.conf [08:06] Guys, my displaylink stopped working after a kernel upgrade. I see the two monitors that are attached, but the when I wan tot move windows over to the monitors they are not seen [08:06] *not shown [08:06] I'm on ubuntu 16.04. Does anyone have experience with displaylink on ubuntu? === JanC is now known as Guest77859 === JanC_ is now known as JanC [08:11] hello, in gnome when you press super can you find files by file-name if in-file cache is disabled in tracker? === Attoy_ is now known as Attoy [08:18] hello every one! this is a support section, right? [09:11] hi [09:15] hey guys, have a new machine, and am torn between Ubuntu LTS and Debian 9. Both LTS, what would you say are advantages and disadvantages? Or Ubuntu's strenghts compared to Debian? Thanks for your help in making this choice! [09:16] After updating 16.04 to 17.04, my console does not turn off screen anymore. Used to automatically blank the screen after 5 minutes of inactivity. Trying to google this just leads to people wanting to disable that. Can anyone help me with this? [09:16] I'm having so many issues after 17.04, it's making me really frustrated. [09:17] Is HWE included in every normal point release for Ubuntu? For example, does the update automatically include HWE on a normal ubuntu desktop ISO? [09:19] moskovcan: you can see how it works here - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=Ubuntu+Kernel+Support+Schedule.svg [09:25] ducasse: so that basically means a new kernel every normal point release? am i seeing this right? [09:26] ah, forget it, see it already [09:27] ducasse: aaaah , i think i get it now. If you install only 16.04, not a point release, you don't get HWE, but if you install a point release, you get HWE and it is enabled automatically? [09:28] moskovcan: exactly. 16.04.3 contains the kernel + x stack from 17.04 etc [09:28] and will be upgraded to 16.04.4 automatically when that is released [09:29] Hi, Can anyone help me? I have ubuntu 14.04 lts samba server and wanna make guest users to connect to shared folder but also wants to give 2-3 people with account limited access to it. Network users will be on pc and mac [09:29] moskovcan, if you install 16.04.2 you will get the newers stack automatically [09:30] moskovcan, or 16.04.3 for that matter [09:32] thanks for your help. And basically, the iso that's available by default for download is a point release? [09:32] Waddup: have you seen # https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba/SambaServerGuide [09:33] moskovcan, yes, 16.04.3 since yesterday [09:34] thanks kostkon: and, hipothetically, when 18.04 is released, what do you have to do to upgrade it to a point release? is there a dialogue window askign you or something? [09:34] !hwe | moskovcan you do this [09:34] moskovcan you do this: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [09:35] sary ill go check it now thank you :) [09:36] moskovcan, exactly [09:36] ubottu: thanks, and after installing by the mentioned command, you are from thereonafter automatically updated [09:36] moskovcan: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [09:36] kostkon: it was meant for you :) [09:36] moskovcan, you wil get a dialogue asking you if you want to upgrade to 18.04 [09:37] and one final question: after the canonical layoffs, is ubuntu still invested into desktop? [09:37] moskovcan, upgrade 18.04 to a point release? it will happen automatically through your regular updates afaik [09:37] Any takers? how to re-enable console powersave screen off lost after upgrade? [09:37] when is 18.04 coming out? [09:38] xorpad: end of april 2018 :) [09:38] Also, anyone else excited about the new binutils, glibc, and gcc that came out yesterday? [09:38] what!?!?! [09:38] I can't wait that long [09:39] gcc 7.2 RC2 has a bunch of my code in it, so i'm really happy to see it released [09:39] kostkon: no, you need to install the packages mentioned in the hwe link to get the hwe stack, or it will remain on the original stack [09:39] kostkon: yes, that's what i thought, i meant for hwe for 18.04. If i install 18.04 next april, i have to manually enable hwe? [09:40] ducasse: and when i once install it manually, it will also be alway updated when a new point release occurs? [09:40] moskovcan: exactly, same as for 16.04 [09:41] sary: there is only adding users here, Im wondering if you can add users while allowing guests also on a single share folder ? [09:42] thank you all [09:42] it's now clear [09:43] and is ubuntu still invested in desktop ? [09:43] of course [09:44] thank you, that's good to hear [09:44] I've been torn between debian and ubuntu, but HWE is something that's very convenient for a desktop user [09:45] What's the best way to share a directory on a linux server over a network to a linux desktop for read-only? nfs? samba? sshfs?

I don't have any happy memories with nfs. Nor samba for that matter. [09:50] does anyone know when/if Ubuntu is going to recompile everything for ryzen? [09:51] security isn't important. [09:51] Zta: rot and die? [09:51] ubuntu packages are compiled with gcc 5.4.0 right now. 6.3.0 or greater is needed to prevent segfaults during heavy multitasking loads [09:52] One day it works. Stop using it for a few month, return and it has stopped working. [09:52] basically i just wanted windows users to login to the shared folder by guest accounts and mac users by certain usernames. i tried adding "user only = username" and guest only = yes in the same shared folder but both cant login [09:53] I'll try this first: https://github.com/dperson/samba Then nfs perhaps. [09:55] Is it possible that I always find issues nobody knows how to answer? =\ [09:56] Hi. I have a ubuntu server. [09:56] It suddenly started spiking to 100% CPU usage yesterday, and the socket connections in PHP-fpm started timing out [09:57] I restarted the server, and since then CPU occassionally spikes to about 50% whereas before it was never above 10%. And the connections are dropping even when the CPU is not so high [09:57] I dont know anything that was done that could have caused the change. [09:58] I tried using the tools I know of (top et al) and the new relic stats I have, but they all show that combined all process really are always below 50% CPU, and they dont show anything about connections [09:59] Are there any recomended tutorials for debugging this sort of stuff [10:00] Hello, has anybody had any issues running ubuntu 17.04 as a virtualbox guest [10:00] I am having no end of issues getting the vbox guest services running properly [10:06] When doing apt-get update I have a repository that is unsigned how do I get rid of it [10:07] have a look in /etc/apt/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d and remove the offending repo [10:07] or look into finding the appropriate keys for it [10:08] tomeaton17_: identify the repository by it's url / the warning given in "apt-get update" output (maybe check against "apt-cache policy"), then remove the repository from either /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ or the respective lines off /etc/apt/sources.list (but it should not be in this file really) [10:09] if the warning is that the repository is unsigned then there are no keys for it [10:09] if the warning is that you lack the keys to check its authentiticy then get the keys [10:10] No its the repository, I just used it ages ago to install shadowproxy but thanks I got rid of it now [10:12] samgoody: what changed between when it worked well and now? what you discuss sounds very much like changed (php web) application code. [10:14] samgoody: to inspect which software updates were installed when you can check in /var/log/apt/term.log* - correlate timing to the output of 'last' (or /var/log/auth.log) if you want to understand who or which mechanism installed them. [10:16] Hi [10:16] samgoody: if it turns out that an application code change may have introduced the lad spikes then look into debugging your web application, which is not really on topic here (ask in #php, look into kcallgrind etc.) [10:16] Why does sometimes a command shows usage even though syntax is correct [10:16] ? [10:17] hi save_me. it usually doesn't which command does? [10:17] it usually doesn't. which command does? [10:17] tftp [10:18] without any arguments? [10:18] anyhow [10:20] save_me: when i run 'tftp' from package 'tftp' without arguments i get the Commmand line interface [10:24] WoLf: maybe you just need to repeat them occasionally or ask at a different time of day. [10:25] could anyone tell me if its possible? having guest users and users created to access one same shared folder on samba? [10:27] Waddup: i think you can configure twho shares with different authentication configurations which provide access to the same file system locations [10:28] *two [10:29] tomreyn: wouldn't that make a conflict? I tried adding "user only=username" & "guest Only=yes" lines below the shared directory but none worked. === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon [10:33] Waddup: why a conflict? and no, i don't think you can mix guest access and authenticated access on a single share, at least not 5years ago when i last worked with samba ;) === tomeaton17_ is now known as tomeaton17 [10:41] Hey folks [10:43] Hiya [10:44] sary, Hi [10:48] I'm getting "Subquery returns more than 1 row" The weird part is that the sub-query that returns "multiple rows" have a parameter from the general query that should prevent that multiple row returning. [10:48] That shouldn't go here, sorry [11:16] hello everybody! [11:16] a question: I am trying to install the best possible graphics driver for 3D on my ubuntu 16.04, "lspci" lists "Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT DRAM Controller", [11:16] can I just install de nvidia driver? I don't understand if it is compatible or not (excuse my ignorance) [11:18] Intel's Graphics Update Tool doesn't have very good reviews [11:19] pelusso: ubuntu should come and update to the lastest supported driver version automatically. [11:20] thanks mas886, but it isn't doing a good job with the 3d [11:21] I'm trying to use Equinox 3D [11:22] intel integrated GPUs generally won't perform well on 3d intensive stuff. [11:22] I found lots of forums recommending to install the nvidia driver... [11:22] But you can always try updating Mesa drivers [11:22] pelusso, open a console and run this, lspci -k|grep -iEA5 'vga|3d, then paste the output in pastebin [11:23] or what is your recommendation? [11:23] Hi. Why checksums are distributed not over https bu over http: http://releases.ubuntu.com/17.04/ ? [11:30] I guess because "https" security is flawed and admins don't want users to be deluded. But how is it flawed? [11:32] the code is not doing anything, just hangs up with > [11:32] Hi guys, there is something i don’t understand about apache virtual host. How can i get my website to appear as http://www.mydomain.com? Which ServerName or ServerAlias should i use? Thanks! [11:33] Corneille: do you need it only for testing or in production? [11:34] hello [11:34] how to enable iptables extensions on 16.04 lts? [11:34] I would like this for production. [11:34] there is no package iptables-extensions [11:34] i need ip_conntrack_max and so on [11:36] Corneille: did you try searching apache chat room? [11:36] pelusso, copy and paste this lspci -k|grep -iEA5 'vga|3d [11:37] i'll try thanks [11:37] oops sorry pelusso lspci -k|grep -iEA5 'vga|3d' [11:39] jajajaj that made the trick BluesKaj [11:39] !pastebin | pelusso [11:39] pelusso: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [11:40] Corneille: /msg alis list httpd [11:41] pelusso, let's have alook at your hardware and drivers on pastebin [11:41] https://pastebin.com/XfXyiFHG [11:46] pelusso, do you have this installed? libegl1-mesa [11:48] it's required for 3D rendering [11:51] hi all is this the right place to ask questions? [11:52] yes, terminal says it is in its newest version [11:54] esuohrD, yes [11:55] Im having a touch time with openvpn setup. It keeps asking me to due the system-ask-password thing but if I use that command nothing happens. I just keeps asking me. [11:58] i've been folling the directions on the htpcquides website [11:58] esuohrD, did you install network-manager-openvpn [11:59] no. just the openvpn. Im running mint on a raspberry pi3, command line only. [12:01] esuohrD, then you have to add the server provided .ovpn files to /etc/openvpn [12:02] !mint | esuohrD [12:02] esuohrD: 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) [12:02] hmm ok. === KindTwo is now known as KindOne [12:16] Hi [12:18] I have "Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8821AE 802.11ac PCIe Wireless Network Adapter" And i am geeting frequent network disconnection issue. Sometimes wifi does not work. [12:18] I have tried installing https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git , but still hard luck. [12:28] bipul: in different terminal tab/window run: tail -f /var/log/syslog , and tail -f /var/log/dmesg , then try to connect , paste the result into this forum in http://sprunge.us/ . also, what does dmesg | grep rtlwifi shows! [12:28] ok. [12:35] can anyone help? what string should i add to be able to set user and guest to access single shared folder by samba? [12:38] I don't like Broadcom , Ralink , or Realtek.. the forums is full of issues with these. Intel's and Qualcomm Atheros are the best! bipul [12:38] Waddup: Are you on a server or a desktop ! [12:38] sary: im using Ubuntu 14.04lts Server === the_ant1 is now known as the_ant [12:45] Waddup: i think you can configure two shares with different authentication configurations which provide access to the same file system locations [12:45] Waddup: do you remember this conversation from before you got disconnected? [12:46] you can review how it contineud on http://irclogs.ubuntu.com [12:46] tomreyn: yes i actually answered to it "tomreyn: wouldn't that make a conflict? I tried adding "user only=username" & "guest Only=yes" lines below the shared directory but none worked." [12:46] tomreyn: im thinking it is possible its just that i have wrong line inserted. [12:47] Waddup: and then i responded again, which you probably did not get to see, yet, since your connection dropped. which is why i'm pointing you to irclogs. [12:49] tomreyn: yeah saw it just now. the thing is im not very knowledgeable in this field so you think adding "guest=yes" and "user=username" would work? or do i have the wrong line to insert? [12:49] Waddup: So your best bit is to tweak the smb.conf. shouldn't be guest ok = yes , how does your smb.conf looks like! [12:55] Waddup: you want a combination of "valid users = ...", "guest ok = yes" and (optionally) "guest account = ...". you do not want to use "guest only", unless you split it up into two shares. also, guest account generally requires share-level security, so be sure to enable that. [12:56] i.e. security = share [12:58] actually, use "username = ..." instead of "valid users = ..." with ahre-level access [13:08] Maybe I'm searching in the wrong direction, this is what the website of Equinox 3D says: [13:08] "Please, install the proper graphics driver for your system. The one provided by the manufacturer of your graphics hardware (NVidia or AMD). [13:09] The default driver on most Linux systems (Mesa) does not support proper 3D graphics! [13:10] Mesa doesn't support 3D .. what! [13:11] :s [13:11] hey on tftp command for accessing a file server says access violation [13:12] By proper they may mean certain GL_ functions [13:12] but on server file perm is 777 [13:12] These days Mesa is mostly up to par tho, so [13:12] and chown is to nobody [13:12] any reason ? [13:13] but the program is not working correctly, so I thought that should be the reason [13:14] pelusso: well, what chipset are you using? [13:15] pelusso: for AMD there is really nothing but mesa, for nvidia the binary blob usually works better than nouveau for most things [13:17] when I draw anything, it won't show [13:17] how can I check my chipset? [13:17] pelusso: lspci|grep VGA [13:17] or inxi -G [13:17] Well inxi isnt installed by default :) [13:18] tomreyn: thankyou ! [13:18] Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) [13:18] which app is that pelusso .. [13:18] true hateball :) [13:18] is Equinox 3D [13:19] sary: Here is the log https://paste.ubuntu.com/25239894/ [13:20] pelusso: so, what chipset are you using? [13:20] pelusso: this string will give even better output: lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display' [13:21]
