[00:02] tcikoritys: One issue at a time . To me getting a driver loaded ( not xserver-xorg-video-intel ) is the 1st priority . And yes systemd controls PID1 . [00:03] Bashing-om: Also, not sure if this is the right way to do this, but it seems so from a search. I added 'blacklist i915' to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, and did sudo update-initramfs -u. The modesetting boots still fail. [00:05] oerheks: should i `rm` the old kernels? [00:07] how do i log to cron? does it just take stdout? [00:08] kevr: what do you mean log to cron [00:08] syslog gets CRON logging from various cron jobs [00:08] how does that happen [00:09] by the cron job printing to stdout? [00:11] tomreyn, I'm still running through the ubuntu-server install by dd-ing the iso to a usb and booting off of it. So far, it has been a much better experience and I'm expeting it to work -- thank you for that advice. [00:15] tcikoritys: We have to have a driver . and I am trying to come up with a reason why not Intel® Graphics Update Tool 2.0.2 for Ubuntu* 16.04, 64-bit . I would prefer some other solution . [00:15] energizer: ? [00:16] Bashing-om: Would it be good to try? Or why not? [00:16] energizer: " should i `rm` the old kernels? " Not for the faint at heart . That leads to a long hard road to recover from . [00:16] Bashing-om: what do i do instead? [00:18] energizer: Have not followed your issue . but if apt can not work . then it is the realm of dpkg . [00:18] Bashing-om: im out of space on /boot. cant autoremove or apt purge anything [00:19] tcikoritys: What release are we working with ? I can not come up with a better thing than the OEM install . [00:19] Bashing-om: 16.04 [00:22] tcikoritys: can you run `lspci | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' sprunge.us` please? [00:23] energizer: Then it is a dpkg thing . get a list ' sudo dpkg -l | grep linux- ' . Then this - a template only - ' sudo dpkg -P linux-image{,-extra}-4.4.0-{46,49,52}-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-{46,49,52}{,-generic} ' where you know what the booting kernel is and DO NOT mess with that booting kernel . [00:24] From that I get: http://sprunge.us/SCYO [00:26] tcikoritys: Yeah,. let's see what kind of issues we run into with the OEM install . http://tipsonubuntu.com/2016/09/07/install-intel-graphics-driver-ubuntu-16-04/ looks pretty easy . [00:29] kevr: tcikoritys We have no driver loaded per lshw -C . maybe effected by nomodeset ? [00:31] energizer: If you do not understand the syntax of the dpkg command, you can dpkg one package at a time - with patience . [00:31] Bashing-om: i am familiar, trying it now [00:33] Bashing-om: That was working, up until it tried to install libglapi-mesa. It wanted to install version 12.something, but 17.0 is installed [00:35] Bashing-om: Sorry. It was trying to install libgles1-mesa [00:37] tcikoritys: Pastebin those outputs and we see what we can do to fix . All I can say is that we have to get some driver installed and this is - I think - a good way . [00:38] !info libgles1-mesa xenial [00:38] libgles1-mesa (source: mesa): free implementation of the OpenGL|ES 1.x API -- runtime. In component main, is optional. Version 12.0.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 (xenial), package size 8 kB, installed size 85 kB [00:40] tcikoritys: ^^ so a PPA interferring ( version 17) ?? [00:42] Bashing-om: Where do I find out? Both of them say "Source: mesa" and "Origin: Ubuntu" [00:43] !info libglapi-mesa xenial [00:43] libglapi-mesa (source: mesa): free implementation of the GL API -- shared library.

To see the origin of the affected packages ' apt policy ' . [00:48] Bashing-om: Here's what I got for those two. Libgles1-mesa http://paste.ubuntu.com/25266611/ [00:49] Bashing-om: libglapi-mesa http://paste.ubuntu.com/25266614/ [00:49] tcikoritys: What shows ' apt policy libgles1-mesa libglapi-mesa ' ? in a pastebin . [00:50] Bashing-om: perfect, thanks [00:50] back in business [00:50] energizer: Great :) one down 3 to go for me . [00:51] tcikoritys: " Maintainer: Ubuntu X-SWAT " still thin'n . [00:54] tcikoritys: A packaging error ??. lemmee see if I can pull in some additional help here . [00:57] Bashing-om: tcikoritys: what package is it your' trying to install? on xenial? [00:57] Hi, I'm trying to configure ipv6 on ubuntu in vmware and having some issues. I can ping an ipv6 address from the host machine, but get 'network unreachable' when doing it on the vm. eth0 only shows the local link ipv6 address... is there a trick to getting the vm to pick up the ipv6 address? [00:57] taht versioning (12.0.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1) looks rather wrong. [00:58] Bashing-om: that version was published in xenial-updates on 07/26, but has since been superseded [00:59] oh wait, that's odd [00:59] nacc: I'm trying to fix a problem with modesetting graphics drivers that freeze the system. Toward that end I downloaded the Intel graphics updater, which is trying to install libgles1-mesa. The version it's trying to install depends on an old version of libglapi-mesa [01:01] nacc: when I look at libgles1-mesa, wants 12.0.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 . Looking at apt show libgles1-mesa it says it wants Depends: libglapi-mesa (= 12.0.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1) . But ' sysop@x1604:~$ apt list libglapi-mesa ' has " libglapi-mesa/xenial-updates,now 17.0.7-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 amd64 " . [01:02] nacc: The interesting thing is, this has nothing to do with X. If I don't have nomodeset in the kernel parameters, the whole system freezes before systemd gets a chance to log anything. I set journalctl to use persistent storage, in hopes that it would capture something but... [01:02] Bashing-om: ack, that's odd [01:03] Bashing-om: it's also odd that it comes from the same source (mesa) as liblapi-mesa [01:03] *libglapi-mesa [01:04] nacc: Tgat is why I asked for an experienced set of eyes here :) [01:04] That* [01:04] ah [01:04] i think i see what has happened [01:05] 17.0.0~rc3-1 dropped libgles1 [01:05] in favor of libgles2 [01:05] tcikoritys: I do know from experience that if the system can not find a graphic's driver it can and does drive the system nuts . [01:06] hi, is it possible to cennect to multiple channels/servers useing irssi? [01:06] Grandolf, sure is, why not ask for more in #irssi [01:06] Grandolf: Yes. Join #irssi for assistance . [01:07] Grandolf, channels yes, servers maybe, if you use a higher port to connect, there is an #irssi channel here on #freenode [01:07] Bashing-om: i'll ask the maintainers I know [01:07] thks [01:07] nacc: K. in the mean time tcikoritys is on hold ? [01:08] Bashing-om: this is only an issue because the intel graphics driver (installer) has a dep on it? [01:08] Also, IDK if it helps, but here are the kernel modules that are currently loaded. This is with nomodeset and X running: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25266712/ [01:08] tcikoritys: yeah, it shouldn't have anything to do with the kernel (this particular packaging issue, at least) [01:09] tcikoritys: so i think in the archive itself, everything htat did depend on gles1 has been rebuilt at this point [01:09] tcikoritys: so it's probably a bug in the intel installer, tbh [01:09] tcikoritys: i'll still track down why/if gles1 needs an update so it's not present (or is a dummy package) [01:10] nacc: Thanks :) [01:11] nacc: Honestly, I do not know what all this effects . [01:11] nacc: Anything potentially for the nomodeset issue? The whole reason I'm trying to use the graphics drivers tool is because I cannot use my system without nomodeset [01:11] tcikoritys: sorry, I don't know much about the graphics subsystem itself [01:12] Bashing-om: yeah, it looks like it was intentionally done (http://launchpadlibrarian.net/325594809/mesa_12.0.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1_17.0.7-0ubuntu0.16.04.1.diff.gz), but it's unclear what the binary package itself should do (it feels like a binary package removal in a release is a bad idea (TM)) [01:13] Bashing-om: in that, there should be dummy binary packages to replace them [01:13] Bashing-om: appears to be related to the 16.04.3 stack [01:15] (a la LP: #1687981 per changelog) [01:15] Launchpad bug 1687981 in xorg-server-hwe-16.04 (Ubuntu Xenial) "Backport packages for 16.04.3 HWE stack" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1687981 [01:16] tcikoritys: nacc Know issue ? as Intel " Due to a known issue with Ubuntu* 16.04, third party applications cannot be launched automatically via Ubuntu's package manager. Ubuntu* 16.04 users must install the gdebi tool which will enable them to successfully run the Update Tool. See the following link for detailed instructions:" . [01:16] Bashing-om: hrm, strange -- I don't usually use the GUI, so I'm not sure what it's referring to [01:16] Bashing-om: what's the link? [01:17] in this situation, i would try 17.04 instead of 16.04+hwe [01:17] nacc: That from the installer page at the bottom : https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/intel-graphics-update-tool-linux-os-v2.0.2 . [01:17] oerheks: yeah, that might be a good idea [01:18] any situation actually , with HWE :-D [01:18] tcikoritys: ^^ Lot of skills, knowledge and experience say that . [01:19] just a shot in the dark, i'm guessing htat intel hasn't updated their tool for 16.04.3 [01:19] based upon their deps and versions === Schnabel1 is now known as Schnabeltierchen [01:20] intersting and in 17.04, they don't use those deps at all: https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/intel-graphics-update-tool-linux-os-v2.0.5 [01:20] Bashing-om: --^ [01:20] nacc: Ouch, I had not considered that in my recomendation to install ( no driver is installed ) the OEM driver . [01:21] Bashing-om: nor do they recommend using gdebi anymore [01:21] Bashing-om: even stranger, they say that 16.04 is obsolete with 2.0.2 [01:21] Bashing-om: ... doesn't seem quite right [01:22] Bashing-om: so yeah, i would avoid the intel stuff with hwe [01:22] Bashing-om: doesn't seem current, at least [01:22] stepping away for the evning, i'll let y'all know if i hear anything from the devs on that package [01:25] nacc: Took me hours to come to the conclusion to try OEM as a means to get a driver for tcikoritys . I just had no better suggestion at that time . the use of xserver-xorg-video-intel is discouraged . [01:27] tcikoritys: The question now is if we have a broken system on our hands ? [01:29] Bashing-om: It's been broken :) That's what the nomodeset was for. [01:29] Hi, I changed mountd's port to a fixed port because of my firewall. Is there a way to have it restart using the assigned port without restarting the machine? I tried restarting nfs-kernel-server and nfs-mountd but no luck, only a full reboot changed the port. [01:30] tcikoritys: Yeah, but with the failed driver install. is it broken to the point cannot be used ? [01:30] Bashing-om: Nah, it's still usable, but software rendering makes it just barely usable. [01:31] Bashing-om: yo [01:32] tcikoritys: What kernel are you booting ( uname -r ) . Maybe we use the 17.04 installer from Intel ?? [01:32] unicornjedi: Uh Huh ? [01:33] Bashing-om: i'm that one dude from yesterday who had trouble backing up my system. So you recommended rdiff-backup? [01:33] Bashing-om: 4.10.0-30-generic #34~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 2 02:13:56 UTC 2017 [01:35] * tcikoritys is getting something to eat, but will be back in a bit [01:37] Bashing-om: how do you back up your system? [01:40] unicornjedi: Not recommend anything I do not use . my backup tool is rsync to be truthful . [01:41] tons of options to backup [01:41] !backup [01:41] There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [01:41] unicornjedi: I see no point in backing up a system - only my personal files . All system files are on the installer ! [01:43] Bashing-om: You don't want to rollback in case something happens to your system? [01:44] backup system <> backup data [01:44] unicornjedi: I have broke my system OH ! so many times . takes me 20 minutes to re-install and copy my data back :) [01:46] Bashing-om: XD you are bamf [01:47] I suppose I'll only backup /etc and home [01:49] and maybe the apt history log so I remember what I install on my system [01:50] unicornjedi: Took me a few times to have confidence in restoration of the system . I am a believer - for my use case - my personal data and I maintain a change log of all changes I make to the system . [01:50] Bashing-om: so you have a journal you handtype (or write) with what you do with your system? [01:52] oh by the way. I made some backups with rdiff and they are too big. Can I just rm -R the directory I backedup? [01:52] Bashing-om: After talking with you, I realized I don't need to waste valuable space on my hard drive for a full system back up [01:53] thats why I want to delete those backup's I made [01:53] unicornjedi: dpkg --get-selections >> sudo dpkg --set-selections : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=261366 . My file is a file I keep on the system ( and back it up too !) . [01:53] acpi_listen gives a keycode or scancode for a special button on my keyboard, but xev doesn't detect it as a keycode. what do i edit or modify to enable this keypress event to actually get converted into a keycode? [01:54] unicornjedi: an rdif backup directory . sure it is just files . remove them if ya need the space . [01:54] man setkeycodes --- will this help? [01:56] showkey -s doesn't give me a scancode... this key might be being intercepted by acpi [01:57] showkey -- this is giving me a keycode of over 255 (which x will not support) [01:58] Bashing-om: you sure that there isn't a command to properly remove it? [02:00] unicornjedi: Nope, do not use the ap . But I can not imagine that rm'n it can cause any alarm . [02:00] heh, he didn't say such thing [02:00] oerheks: o.o ???? [02:02] " sure it is just files " so not that difficult to remove [02:02] Hey, I'm just being careful lol [02:03] Now the question is... How am I going to backup my 100gb Windows machine image... [02:03] it's so big [02:03] unicornjedi: "careful is no accident" :) [02:03] that's what she said [02:05] i ran ls and some of the directories are highlighted. dafuq that mean [02:07] How are the video drivers 3d wise on steam games for high end AMD cards? [02:13] unicornjedi: Color is a nicity set in .bashrc . [02:16] Bashing-om: nicity? [02:16] nice value? [02:18] unicornjedi: meant a nice thing . [02:20] unicornjedi: .bashrc : eval "$(dircolors -b)" >> alias ls='ls --color=auto' . [02:20] ah [02:54] I just went from xenial to zesty, after a restart the window manager doesn't "work", after login I have no menus, no launcher, etc, and opening a folder on the desktop shows the files applooking like a website you removed the css for [03:03] scorch: Were there any error messages during the upgrade? [03:04] scorch: How did you upgrade? [03:04] Jordan_U: yeah broken python3.5 (had source built it before) [03:04] removed source build and apt-get install -f fixed the rest [03:04] after restart the above happend [03:06] scorch: How did you upgrade? [03:07] do-release-upgrade [03:07] scorch: Please pastebin the output of "sudo apt full-upgrade". [03:09] Jordan_U: huh, about the same about of packages as before upgrade; maybe it didn't complete [03:10] can't paste bin it, but I went ahead with what it said === sins-_m is now known as sins- [03:14] scorch: Yeah, apt -f install just resolved the conflicts this should get you upgraded the rest of the way (though unfortunately you won't get some of the post-upgrade cleanup that do-release-upgrade would have done had there been no errors). [03:15] got it, thanks for the help [03:15] You're welcome. [04:31] after upgrade to 17.04 dhclient always segfaults wehn run [04:43] nevermind, apparmor fixed it [04:57] in ubuntu 16.04, i used to just go shared my wifi over an ethernet cable via the gui, im using 17.04 now and it seems not to work at all that way [05:00] Hey all. Anyone here ever get stuck on Get? [05:01] AriSc2: please explain your question [05:02] @Nobun when I try to run apt-get update or apt-get upgrade nothing ever downloads, it sticks at get then the server address. Nothing doing when I swap what servers it connects to or run apt-get clean [05:02] AriSc2: did you type "apt-get update" or "sudo apt-get update" ? [05:07] evening folks [05:07] @Nobun I'm in Su mode currently [05:07] so working on installing wine in a new ubuntu-mate 16.04.3 install... am i correct that the official branch is the ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa [05:07] and limited to version 1.8? [05:08] just need to make sure im getting the most stable stuff is the thing, coming from gentoo and I have 2.xx stable there.. just making sure i stick to the distro's stuff as best i can is all [05:10] FrEtEgI: I think your question is out of topic here. However, on personal experience, I would suggest to use the lastest wine version and have multiple wine versions into your system than trying to guess wich one is more "stable" [05:10] for example to run steam windows client you will now require (after last client update) at least wine 2.13 (lastest version is 2.14) [05:11] Nobun: well wasnt sure if it was more a directed issue to ubuntu or not. i tried to install the winehq ppa and winetricks was a mess. couldnt get gecko or mono to install... just a nightmare [05:12] AriSc2: not sure what could be your problem. I would try to use apt-get on a standard session (not a su one) using the sudo command [05:12] hwo about this, are you running the 2.xx version and if so what repo did you use? [05:13] good morning! [05:13] @Nobun when I exit and try with sudo it's the same. Although, for whatever reason, apt-get upgrade worked. update from private PPAs still doesn't though [05:15] sorry.... I have no idea how to help you, than :( [05:16] It's okay mate. I think it's a problem with the PPA I'm using [05:17] Silly runescaoe === RaptorJesus is now known as Majesticles === Majesticles is now known as RaptorJesus [05:47] good morning to all [06:26] Good evening. I seem to have a broken package that is hanging apt up to the point I am considering a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04.3, which I would like to avoid. [06:27] Hey everyone -- all of a sudden today my production web server (running Ubuntu 14.04) started going down, and I'm trying to figure out why. By "going down" I mean I couldn't SSH into it, and when I rebooted the server (on EC2), I checked syslog and the first time I had this problem earlier today it showed memory issues, but then a few hours later it went down again and syslog didn't seem to show the same memory issues. What else should I look int [06:27] diagnose what could be causing this? [06:28] SubatomicParticl: can you hastebin the problem of the apt error? [06:28] dshap: perhaps the #ubuntu-server channel can help [06:28] lotuspsychje: Will post in there, thanks! [06:30] Sure. Give me a moment to figure out pastebin. It's only when I try to apt install or apt remove a package, which makes it spit error code 2 (i/o error on behalf of libselinux1:i386) at me. [06:32] http://paste.ubuntu.com/25268216/ Here's the pastebin link. [06:35] I've tried using sudo apt install --reinstall libselinux1:i386 to reinstall the package that's hanging it up, but, again, that package must contain apt since it's trying to use the package to reinstall itself. Any idea how I can fix it? I'd like to avoid a fresh install, since that would take 2-3 days due to my internet speed. [06:36] SubatomicParticl: similar problem to what you have https://askubuntu.com/a/140636/15003 [06:36] hi all, I have a Linux box whose / partition is 100% utilised when using df command, but then when using du -shx /, show there is a lot of free space. [06:37] Ah, geez. I found that earlier, but felt uncomfortable doing such a task... Thanks. [06:40] Uh. We MIGHT have a slightly bigger problem. I used ctrl+f and typed in the package name with the find function. It's red, meaning there is no entry for it. [06:42] ranjan: i use bleachbit to clean out & make free space [06:43] lotuspsychje: this is a server, and I dont have UI. [06:44] ranjan: bleachbit can be used on cli also i think [06:44] ranjan: or perhaps #ubuntu-server channel might know better server tools for that [06:47] lotuspsychje: thank you. let me try that [06:50] lotuspsychje: I tried edwinksl 's post he gave me, but the dpkg status file has no entry for libselinux1:i386. It has libselinux1, but not the 32-bit edition, which is the one causing me errors. [06:53] Wait, I found it. How do I remove the entry? [06:55] Nevermind. I can handle it.

They have a printer. Can i can this printer to print on ubuntu? Printer is a "Brother MFC-L2700 DW". Thank you. [10:50] yes [10:50] oost: they seem to provide drivers at least http://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadtop.aspx?c=eu_ot&lang=en&prod=mfcl2700dw_us_eu_as [10:55] Ah, ok. Should i check the deb file for compabilities with (latest)ubuntu first? [10:57] And is it possible to test the printer driver well under a live session? [10:59] oost: yes [11:00] I have some extremely simple network config that 'service networking restart' seems to have issues with, it all appears fine to me. Anyone see anything obviously wrong? https://gist.github.com/boxrick/52c93d51e13008a0e2ddc90dc3dee95a [11:01] oost: first try to install the printer normally, chances are ubuntu already has the drivers in its repositories... System Settings -> Printers -> Add Printer ... [11:04] geirha: ok. i will check that when i am with my parents...

[11:16] acresearch: Is there a reason you need to do it with ffmpeg rather than just opening it in audacity? [11:16] acresearch: I suggest asking in #ffmpeg [11:16] hateball: won't audacity lose quality if i open it, trim it then export it again? [11:18] Another question, this PC where i am about to install ubuntu on. It has UEFI and windows 8.1... Is ubuntu compatbile with UEFI? And can i just install grub on this machine? (are these two things just as easy as it was under bios with windows xp installed on hard disk) [11:18] acresearch: I suppose so [11:18] !uefi [11:18] UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS.

[11:32] ssh only allows for connections from authorized keys automatically right? or do i need to set up some rules to restrict access only from authorized keys? [11:34] loppy2: by default it accepts passwords [11:35] if you only want keys then edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and set PasswordAuthentication to no [11:36] and restart ssh with "sudo service ssh restart" [11:36] EriC^^, so you mean it does need a authorized key but if they know the root password they can get in? [11:36] cool thanks [11:36] thats what i wanted [11:38] loppy2: no by default if they know the root password it won't work i think [11:38] loppy2: pastebin /etc/ssh/sshd_config and i can tell you how it's set up right now [11:39] well it has passwordauthentication commented out ..it has yes but its commented out ..not sure what that means [11:39] EriC^^, you think i should uncomment and then put no and reboot?
