| pavlos | chull: since you know command line, use the lines I gave earlier | 00:00 |
| pavlos | chull: fyi, email clients allow you to attach many files in an email | 00:02 |
| pavlos | chull: fyi, I use gmail, I can attach 10-20 images and send | 00:03 |
| chull | pavlos, and privacy laws say no email accepted | 00:03 |
| pavlos | chull: ok | 00:03 |
| chull | pavlos, i need to compress them and upload them | 00:03 |
| pavlos | chull: try the command line | 00:03 |
| pavlos | chull: dfc contains images and other dirs | 00:04 |
| chull | pavlos, it contains six pdfs | 00:04 |
| pavlos | chull: fine, in command line, zip my.zip dfc/* | 00:04 |
| chull | ponders if we could send it without compressing | 00:04 |
| pavlos | it should create a file my.zip | 00:05 |
| pavlos | chull: how will you send the zip file if email is not accepted? | 00:06 |
| chull | pavlos, will anything easy give me the path to that director? | 00:06 |
| chull | directory | 00:07 |
| pavlos | you're in your home dir /home/chull | 00:07 |
| chull | yes atm. the file is in xyz > cbq > kfm > etc etc etc etc etc etc | 00:07 |
| pavlos | you mean the files inside dfc/ ? they could be anything pdf, kfm, xyz | 00:08 |
| chull | pavlos, no. hubby likes to keep everything super organzized, so someone like me who uses command line has to navigate forever to find them | 00:08 |
| chull | to use zip i either have to tell it the path to the directory or BE in the directory to zip it | 00:09 |
| pavlos | chull: that task is to zip the dfc and its contents, right? ... zip my.zip dfc/* will do so | 00:09 |
| pavlos | chull: you're at home dir, the command could be rewritten as, zip /home/chull/my.zip /home/chull/dfc/* | 00:11 |
| pavlos | chull: you dont need to reference you're at home dir | 00:11 |
| pavlos | chull: zip is usually /usr/bin/zip | 00:12 |
| chull | zip /home/chull/my.zip /home/chull/dfc/ .. we are on the way | 00:12 |
| pavlos | chull: the terminal should list (adding ... adding ... until completed. See the file my.zip created | 00:15 |
| pavlos | chull: you can test with, unzip -t my.zip to verify what was zipped | 00:16 |
| chull | pavlos, we got it thanks so very much :) | 00:18 |

| jackhum | hi | 00:45 |
| pavlos | jackhum: maybe this might help ... https://askubuntu.com/questions/706414/accidentally-deleted-efi-partition | 00:56 |
| jackhum | pavlos, once deleted a partition using gparted , is there any way i can get it back :P | 00:59 |
| jackhum | i am in middle of nowhere and i dont even have a usb with me, if i close this , i wont be able to come back | 01:00 |

| jackhum | actually i have windows ubuntu and kali triple boot making 3 primary partition , i wanted to create one more partition common to them to store my files and multimedia stuff , but gparted said to me that you cant have more than 4 primary partition , so i delted the smalles 1000 MB one | 01:05 |
| pumba | jackhum: i wish i knew what to do myself.. id be more lost than you if that happened to me | 01:08 |
| jackhum | pumba, i am pretty sure , the moment this computer shut down . i will not be able to come back | 01:09 |
| jackhum | anyway i can just make my ubunntu and kali start , i will ditch window | 01:10 |
| pumba | ehhh keep trying | 01:11 |
| pumba | dont give up | 01:11 |
| jackhum | the problem is the only way to know if this is fixed is by restarting , and i will get only one shot | 01:14 |
| jackhum | anyway to check this without restarting | 01:15 |
| kenrin | can you partprobe and see the partition ? | 01:15 |
| jackhum | kenrin , what command should run | 01:17 |
| kenrin | partprobe -s | 01:17 |
| jackhum | kenrin, i tried partprobe -s , it shows no output | 01:18 |
| [n0mad] | fwiw i get no output from that command either | 01:19 |
| kenrin | strange, it supposed to update the partitions and list them | 01:19 |
| kenrin | try fdisk -l now and see if the efi is there | 01:19 |
| kenrin | or parted -l, whatever you prefer | 01:19 |

| Paynemaster | Hello everyone | 02:57 |
| Paynemaster | I got a Linux issue hoping somebody can help me out here | 02:57 |
| Paynemaster | My mouse cursor is stuck in the top left. | 02:58 |
| Paynemaster | Anyone? | 02:59 |
| Paynemaster | Is this the #ubuntu channel? | 03:00 |
| hfp | Hi, I'm trying to clone my Ubuntu install to another disk. I'm using LVM+LUKS on a 180GB SSD and trying to move it over to a 120GB SSD. I resized the crypted partition and the LVM to 100GB so that it would all fit on the new smaller drive. But when I do it with clonezilla (even with -icds enabled), it never works. It says the destination disk is smaller (duh) and can't proceed. What's the secret? | 03:02 |
| hfp | Or should I reinstall Ubuntu on the new SSD and then rm -rf / on the partition, and copy over the files manually with cp from / on my larger SSD to / on my smaller one? | 03:05 |
| Paynemaster | Hello. Anyone here? | 03:06 |
| Paynemaster | ... | 03:07 |
| Paynemaster | i don't get this | 03:07 |
| Paynemaster | Anyone here that can help me out please? | 03:07 |
| hfp | Paynemaster: People don't sit in front of their computers 24/7, ask your question and when someone who knows the answer is around they'll answer you | 03:07 |
| Paynemaster | Ah sorry. got no clue to see who's online at the time | 03:08 |
| hfp | It's impossible to tell :) | 03:08 |
| Paynemaster | was thinking i was in the wrong channel | 03:08 |
| hfp | No, that's just how IRC works | 03:08 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp could u help me out perhaps? | 03:09 |
| hfp | idk, what's happening? | 03:09 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp I got a mouse cursor issue. It seems to get stuck in the top left corner. I can mouse arround its just invisible | 03:10 |
| hfp | Does your mouse work on another computer/OS? | 03:11 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp yes. seems to be a know problem | 03:12 |
| hfp | how do you know it's a known issue? | 03:12 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp because askubuntu.com has a thread on it | 03:13 |
| hfp | I see, does it have a solution/fix? | 03:13 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp well its somewhat all over the place. the thread is from last year. So a newer version might fixed it. but iam not sure | 03:15 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp i am using a usb media tool with a app on it that runs under linux. so i can't really change that | 03:15 |
| hfp | you cant upgrade the package? | 03:16 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp how? | 03:16 |
| hfp | is it running ubuntu? | 03:16 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp theres a syslinux.cfg file in it | 03:16 |
| hfp | what does lsb_release -a get you? | 03:17 |
| Paynemaster | can't tell since i am not in it right now | 03:17 |
| hfp | that makes things rather complicated | 03:17 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp can't i see a version in the files on the usb media tool? | 03:18 |
| hfp | what is a usb media tool? | 03:18 |
| Paynemaster | like bootable | 03:18 |
| hfp | a live cd? | 03:18 |
| hfp | live usb rather? | 03:19 |
| Paynemaster | yeah | 03:19 |
| Paynemaster | boot media | 03:19 |
| hfp | if it's causing you problem, why don't you use another/a more recent version of your distro on the liveusb? | 03:20 |
| Fretegi | eening | 03:21 |
| hfp | go get ubuntu 17.04 and put that on your liveusb, it will have more recent packages that will prob fix your issue | 03:21 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp i got no clue how to do that. its a tool from toshiba that created the bootable media tool. | 03:21 |
| Fretegi | https://pastebin.com/TFkSZtvT | 03:21 |
| Fretegi | ok trying to get a cannon scanner to work, thats the output from simple-scan -d any thoughts? | 03:22 |
| Fretegi | prints fine, just cant scan.. thinking perhaps a libsane issue? | 03:22 |
| hfp | Paynemaster: download ubuntu 17.04, and use a tool like etcher.io to make a bootable usb out of it | 03:23 |
| Paynemaster | @hfp could u first tell me how to reply like u did i assume that is a private message? | 03:23 |
| hfp | how did I answer you you mean? | 03:24 |
| Paynemaster | yeah | 03:24 |
| hfp | we're chatting on the public #ubuntu channel | 03:24 |
| hfp | all other 1061 users on this channel can read what we're discussing | 03:24 |
| Paynemaster | well your nickname is in red the sudden and i hear a bleep | 03:25 |
| hfp | because I put your name in my answer | 03:25 |
| hfp | Paynemaster: like so | 03:25 |
| Paynemaster | yep | 03:25 |
| hfp | your client detects that I mentioned your nick and alerts you | 03:25 |
| Paynemaster | ah oke. like i am doing all the time? @hfp | 03:26 |
| hfp | yes | 03:26 |
| hfp | but dont start mentioning or /msg people at random, you wont make friends this way | 03:26 |
| Paynemaster | yeah i understand | 03:27 |
| hfp | I have to go, good luck Paynemaster. Try making a new liveusb from the latest ubuntu and see how that goes for you | 03:27 |
| Paynemaster | what about the tool from toshiba | 03:27 |
| Paynemaster | i got no clue if that still works then | 03:27 |
| hfp | i dont know what that tool is or what it does | 03:27 |
| Paynemaster | well doesnt matter | 03:28 |
| Paynemaster | its intergrated with the linux boot | 03:28 |
| hfp | if you stick around or come back at another time, maybe there will be someone here that can help you | 03:28 |
| Paynemaster | yeah i will try that | 03:28 |
| Paynemaster | thanks for the big help | 03:28 |
| hfp | np, good luck | 03:28 |
| Fretegi | so is there a way to downgrade libsane | 03:29 |
| Spencer-_ | Howdy folks. Im having a weird issue with my network adapters. I am of intermediate *nix knowledge. Using Server 16.04. cli only. The box im using has two network adapters - one wired, one wireless. Either one of them works, if the other isnt configured (in /etc/network/interfaces). But if both are configured, something borks somewhere during networking service restart, or system reboot, and only the wired interface comes up. In t | 03:29 |
| Paynemaster | hfp cheers ;) | 03:29 |
| Spencer-_ | the wpa_supplicant and the wireless interface can come up | 03:29 |
| Fretegi | or upgrade lol | 03:29 |
| Spencer-_ | but i have no idea why they wont use both load at the same time. | 03:29 |
| Spencer-_ | if anyone can help me figure this out, i'd be greatly appreciative. | 03:30 |
| Telex9 | Spencer-_, I might be missing something, are you trying to route traffic to both at the same time? | 03:31 |
| Telex9 | just trying to figure out why both need to be active at the same time | 03:31 |
| Spencer-_ | Telex9 - So. Thats the idea. For each adapter to be on seperate networks. | 03:32 |
| Spencer-_ | please dont yell at me if thats stupid and not possible. | 03:32 |
| Spencer-_ | Im working on a home lab network environment and Im using this box as a network services server (dhcp, ntp, tftp, etc). I'd like to use the wired adapter as access to that environment. And I want to use the wireless adapter on my home network so I can SSH in from my laptop and not have to use a console cable. | 03:34 |
| Telex9 | oh no worries. : ) We all had to start somewhere. guess how I know the answer to your question ; ) basically, its possible but not really recommended. | 03:34 |
| Spencer-_ | im basically looking for what seems to bea really complicated solution to laziness | 03:34 |
| Telex9 | ah ok, that I can get behind. | 03:35 |
| Telex9 | : ) | 03:35 |
| Spencer-_ | im not so concerned abotu recommended, since its just a home lab and i dont care if anything blows up | 03:35 |
| Telex9 | idk what your running, but basically you'll want to setup a static route for specific interfaces | 03:36 |
| Telex9 | aka run 172.16.x.x over eth0 and 192.168.x.x over eth1 | 03:36 |
| Spencer-_ | this has been an issue for a few days and at this point, ive completely worked around it and really just want to know for my own sanity why both adapters wont go up | 03:36 |
| Fretegi | https://pastebin.com/TFkSZtvT | 03:36 |
| Fretegi | any thoughts on how to address printer | 03:36 |
| Fretegi | scanner? | 03:36 |
| Telex9 | have you set the /etc/network/interfaces file to static ip addresses? | 03:37 |
| Spencer-_ | Telex - thats the idea. | 03:38 |
| Spencer-_ | Yeah, so heres what happens | 03:38 |
| Spencer-_ | i have/etc/net/int configured with static addressing for both interfaces | 03:38 |
| Spencer-_ | but | 03:38 |
| Telex9 | what version are you running btw? | 03:38 |
| Spencer-_ | 16.04 | 03:38 |
| Spencer-_ | now lets say I have nboth interfaces configed and neither commented out. If i reboot, only the wired int comes up. If i reload the network service, it errors out. | 03:39 |
| Spencer-_ | my logfoo isnt great, but lookign at jouirnelctl, it appears that the wireless adapter errors with an exit code 1 and doesnt come up | 03:40 |
| Spencer-_ | but | 03:40 |
| Spencer-_ | if I comment out the wired int and reload, eveyrthing is peachy. same if I comment out the wireless. | 03:40 |
| Spencer-_ | so one at a time, they load up fine | 03:40 |
| Spencer-_ | its only when the config has both uncommented that stuff goes sideways | 03:40 |
| Telex9 | ok, can you do a pastebin of that config? (changing the ips respectively.... ) | 03:44 |
| Spencer-_ | yeah. which configs do you want? | 03:44 |
| Spencer-_ | http://pastebin/com/Su6vGLhN | 03:45 |
| Spencer-_ | thats my /etc/net/int | 03:45 |
| Spencer-_ | except im using a wpa_conf wpa_supplicant location instead of hardcoded SSID and PSK | 03:46 |
| Spencer-_ | oh, and that pastebin shows them both on the same network, but they woudl be on seperate networks in the config i want | 03:48 |
| Fretegi | https://pastebin.com/TFkSZtvT | 03:50 |
| Fretegi | output of simple-scan -d. printer prints fine | 03:50 |
| Telex9 | : ) if you can't reach your default gateway on a local network, how do you send packets through it? check en01 | 03:50 |
| Telex9 | or your wlp2s0, *shrug* | 03:50 |
| k3y5 | . | 03:52 |
| Spencer-_ | ok, and pardon me if Im being facetious here, but my issue isnt with connectivity or routing. Its that both adapters wont load at the same time. | 03:53 |
| Spencer-_ | i.e - ifconfig | 03:53 |
| Spencer-_ | so like, with each adapter uncommented in the config file, and a fresh boot fo the system, ifconfig shows that only the wired adapter loads. | 03:54 |
| Spencer-_ | i can then manually intiate the wpa_supplicant service and it will bring up the wireless adapter, but that wont persist through a service networking reload. | 03:55 |
| Spencer-_ | however | 03:55 |
| Spencer-_ | if I comment out either adapter and reboot, the other adapter loads just fine and connectivity works fine | 03:55 |
| Spencer-_ | which leads me to believe the the config in the /etc/net/int file is fine, cause either one works if the other is commented out. Its something to do with trying to load them both. | 03:56 |
| Telex9 | Totally understand, I might just overly simplifying here, but if your box isn't sure which routes to send packets, it'll favor the wired, but then it wiggs out once on the forced reload. Since the failover of 'prefer the wired, if I see a dupe route' is being over ridden | 03:57 |
| Telex9 | your going to need some static routes in either case, since after force enabling the wireless the box isn't sure which is the best route. idk if that makes sense, perhaps someone with greater eloquence can chime in here then. : ) | 03:59 |
| Spencer-_ | oh, those are words i understand but dont know how to execute | 04:01 |
| Spencer-_ | im not used to OSes having routing tables, but i did recently learn of the command route which lists a routing table | 04:02 |
| Spencer-_ | (Im a windows guy by trade, and know my way around *nix but am not totally comfortable with the OS, obviously) | 04:03 |
| Spencer-_ | but i get routing tables, as this whole exercise is to easily access the cisco lab environment im working with | 04:03 |
| Telex9 | tl;dr Spencer-_ your going to need to put your cisco lab enviroment on a different subnet. Thats going to solve your problem. : ) | 04:04 |
| Spencer-_ | this is actually somthing that confused me as I just recently learned about the route command in *nix, after being very confused as to why the ifconfig didnt who each adapters default gateway | 04:04 |
| Spencer-_ | No | 04:05 |
| Spencer-_ | i can post a /etc/net/int config with them in different networks if youd prefer | 04:05 |
| Spencer-_ | but the issue persists regardless of what network the interfaces are configured with | 04:05 |
| Spencer-_ | that particular pastebin just happens to show them in the same network | 04:06 |
| Spencer-_ | i would be more than happy to config them on different networks and provide logs | 04:06 |
| Telex9 | ok, but... thats different. the bin provided makes it look like its crashing because you have 2 nics, going to the same place, the default logic prefers ethernet, then its being overridden with a forced reload... so without a proper load balancing proc in place, the box dies. | 04:07 |
| Spencer-_ | i get why you thought that | 04:07 |
| Spencer-_ | and i would be more than happy to reconfig and pastebin showing them on different networks | 04:08 |
| Spencer-_ | but that config file doesnt show anything relating to the actual issue | 04:08 |
| Spencer-_ | i could config and doa network service reload and paste the journalctl if that woudl help | 04:09 |
| Telex9 | that'd be helpful, i'm not sure as to why your getting a crash is the interfaces are properly config with 2 sep networks and you've setup proper static routes | 04:10 |
| Spencer-_ | in fact, ill jsut go ahead and do that, cause I understand that I probably dont quite have the covabluary to convey the complexity here | 04:10 |
| Spencer-_ | gimme just a couple minutes while i make files and move them to boxes where I can post them online | 04:10 |
| Spencer-_ | is there anything else you'd like besides the /etc/net/int and journalctl output? | 04:11 |
| Fretegi | ok how about this, where else could i go to fine libsane_1.0.26? found a guide addressing this issue but the files no longer appear to be on the debian page | 04:11 |
| Telex9 | aka sudo route add -net 192.168.37.0/24 gw 192.168.37.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 | 04:11 |
| Telex9 | Spencer-_, no rush, i'm just watching some vm's spin up and patch at the moment | 04:12 |
| Spencer-_ | ok, so i havent ever hard config'd anything into route | 04:12 |
| Spencer-_ | are you suggesting that I hard code both gateways into that as well? | 04:12 |
| Spencer-_ | im more than happy to, i just havent come across anything online that says to do that | 04:13 |
| Telex9 | for the sake of simplicity, lets go with that. : ) | 04:13 |
| Telex9 | Welcome to Linux! : ) | 04:13 |
| Spencer-_ | and like ai siad earlier, i just found out route was a thing recently | 04:13 |
| Spencer-_ | ok cool | 04:13 |
| Spencer-_ | see, im fairly certain its something dumb that gui linux does automagically that im missing in cli cause im a dummy. So ill try that. | 04:13 |
| Telex9 | not a dummy, : ) lol just learning. we've all been here. its why i know about your issue ; ) i had the same problem in version 12.04 | 04:15 |
| Spencer-_ | the only place ive ever configed the gateway, ever, is in the /etc/net/int file | 04:15 |
| Telex9 | which makes sense, but that previous config your placing 2 interfaces with 2 identical gateways. if you where a packet... : ) how would you decide where to go? | 04:17 |
| Spencer-_ | ok, so problem. | 04:19 |
| Fretegi | https://askubuntu.com/questions/788151/ubuntu-16-04-simple-scan-i-o-error/836112#836112 | 04:19 |
| Spencer-_ | when i add the gateway and network the box is currently connected to, no problem | 04:19 |
| Fretegi | ok if someone could just help me sort out this guide pls that would be great | 04:19 |
| Spencer-_ | but when I try to add the second network (remember, i cant actually get both adapters up at the same time), it tells me network unreachable | 04:20 |
| Telex9 | does the second network have a diff gateway / subnet ? | 04:20 |
| Telex9 | and are you getting an ip from dhcp on the 2nd network? | 04:21 |
| Spencer-_ | ok, i was able to get both net gws up after a reboot and a manual instantiation of the wpa_supplicant. | 04:25 |
| Spencer-_ | lets reboot and see if that works | 04:25 |
| Telex9 | fingers crossed! | 04:25 |
| Spencer-_ | ok, so heres what happened | 04:28 |
| Spencer-_ | rebooted. only wired came up. manually launched wpa_supplicant which brought up wireless. I was able to then issue commands to route for both networks (192.168.37.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24) | 04:29 |
| Spencer-_ | rebooted | 04:29 |
| Spencer-_ | only wired is up (192.168.1.0 network) and only the 1.0 network appears int he routing table | 04:29 |
| Telex9 | and when you try to reach .37 it fails ? | 04:30 |
| Telex9 | just trying to double check here | 04:30 |
| Spencer-_ | well yeha, because the adapter isnt up | 04:31 |
| Spencer-_ | which is the whole issue | 04:31 |
| Spencer-_ | two adpaters configured, only one comes up. | 04:31 |
| Spencer-_ | if either adapter is commeneted out of /etc/net/int config, then the other comes up without issue on reboot | 04:32 |
| Spencer-_ | but if both are uncommented, the wireless doesnt come up | 04:32 |
| Spencer-_ | i totally get why the wireless network (37.0) isnt showing up int he routing table right now, because the adapter isnt up so the network doesnt exist to the system | 04:33 |
| Telex9 | and..... i'm outta ideas then, its gotta be some default preference of wired > wireless. you might've already seen this but this might set you on the right track https://kindlund.wordpress.com/2007/11/19/configuring-multiple-default-routes-in-linux/ | 04:37 |

| Fretegi | can i simply add the repository from ubuntu 14.04 to my 16.04.3 install and install packages from 14.04 in a downgrade fashion | 04:41 |
| Fretegi | ? | 04:41 |
| Jordan_U | Fretegi: No. Downgrading is explicitly not supported and will leave you with a completely broken system. If you want to downgrade then you need to re-install (which you can do while still preserving /home/). | 04:43 |
| Fretegi | Jordan_U, ok so that link i posted mentions upgrading to later versions of a few sane related pacakges to resolve this issue. but i cannot find them on the debian site. any thoughts on how to get them | 04:44 |
| Fretegi | or how to address this scanner issue? | 04:44 |
| Jordan_U | Fretegi: Ahh, I see you're just trying to downgrade a single package. That's still not supported, and still probably won't work, but less doom-and gloomy :) | 04:44 |
| Jordan_U | Fretegi: To be clear, your scanner works in Ubuntu 14.04 but not on Ubuntu 16.04? | 04:45 |
| Fretegi | yup | 04:45 |
| Fretegi | well | 04:45 |
| Fretegi | mint 17.3 | 04:45 |
| Fretegi | works in it | 04:45 |
| Spencer-_ | Thank you telex, ill check that out. And also thanks for the help in general. appreciate it | 04:45 |
| Jordan_U | Fretegi: Can you test from an Ubuntu 17.04 LiveUSB? | 04:46 |
| Fretegi | yup, was dead on that as well | 04:46 |
| Fretegi | but i will happily try again on a different machine | 04:47 |
| jnewt | can anyone tell me how to fix this so i can get mariadb installed: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25281453/ | 04:47 |
| Fretegi | cannon printer, using the gutenprint driver on both the mint 17.3 (also trusty) and on this xenial machine. scanner works on mint but not here | 04:47 |
| jnewt | using 16.04 LTS, i found some people that simply said reboot, which i did, and some dpkg commands: https://serverfault.com/a/736547 none of which solved the problem | 04:49 |
| Fretegi | Jordan_U, i am building the live usb now but fwiw i found this guide which describes my problem perfectly and a solution, but i cant find the darn packages it mentions on the debian site | 04:51 |
| Fretegi | https://askubuntu.com/questions/788151/ubuntu-16-04-simple-scan-i-o-error/836112#836112 | 04:51 |
| Fretegi | http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/zesty/man5/sane-pixma.5.html | 04:56 |
| Fretegi | so for example, this same-pixma item mentions my specific scanner, but im not sure if its included in that version of libsane-common | 04:57 |
| Fretegi | anyway to tell | 04:57 |

| Rhombix | hi. i'm trying to duplicate my boot drive to a usb hdd. i tried using GParted (in a live boot session), but when i booted into the hdd, i just got a blank screen. | 06:42 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: First, be careful doing this at all. You may not realize that having two filesystems with the same UUID can be dangerous. | 06:44 |
| Rhombix | ok | 06:44 |
| Rhombix | in GParted i used "copy partition" (from sda1 to sdd1) | 06:45 |
| Rhombix | when the copy didn't boot up, i tried using the dd command to copy the first 1mb of sda to sdd (that's sda, not sda1) | 06:46 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: That most likely lead to sda1 and sdd1 having the same UUID (which you can check with "sudo blkid"). This means that if both are plugged in when you boot, which one gets mounted as your root filesystem could be up to random chance. If this is a btrfs filesystem, then it could lead to corruption of the fileystem. | 06:46 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: Is this a BIOS based or UEFI based machine? | 06:47 |
| Rhombix | UEFI (i think) | 06:47 |
| BUSY | hello! i have 2 machines on the network now, and when i use arp -a from either one, they each are given a hostname of [computer name].network.tds.net, and when i use that address to try to ssh, it resolves and works. where is this host being assigned? | 06:48 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: Then you also need to copy the EFI System Partition *and* prepare the drive to be bootable as a removable drive, which an Ubuntu installation will not be by default (because it requires a boot entry in your firmware). | 06:48 |
| Rhombix | ok. where on a device is this located? i assume it's seperated from the partitions, and will not be carried over when copying partitons alone? | 06:51 |
| Rhombix | also, could you explain more about how a removable drive is different when booted? | 06:52 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: Technically the difference isn't really with the drive being external so much as the drive being booted on machines different than the one the OS was installed on. | 06:53 |
| Dragonbird | Hey guys! can anyone help me with an iptables rule? I am trying to resolve matching hostnames from localhost. dig works just fine but other applications can't resolve the names | 06:54 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: When Ubuntu installs grub it puts some files in your EFI System Partition, one of which is at the path /ubuntu/shimx64.efi (Since your ESP is mounted to /boot/efi/ you can see this file a the path /boot/efi/ubuntu/shimx64.efi) . This is the file that your boot firmware needs to load to start Ubuntu. | 06:57 |
| Rhombix | ok. where is the ESP? is it stored on the booting device, or inside my computer? | 06:59 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: If Ubuntu / grub-install did nothing else, then your computer would not be setup to boot from Ubuntu. If you asked your boot firmware to boot from that drive it would look in the default location /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI in the ESP and would load that (if such a file had been put there by another OS, like Windows) or declare that it can't boot the drive. To make the UEFI boot firmware boot Ubuntu | 07:01 |
| Jordan_U | grub-install/efibootmgr tell the firmware "Hey, there is a file at the path /EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi on this particular ESP that will load an OS. Make an entry for it called "Ubuntu" and boot it by default (before any other OSs)". | 07:01 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: Your ESP is a fat32/fat16 partition on your hard drive. The boot entry that *points to* the file on the ESP is stored in flash on your motherboard. | 07:02 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: So, if you want a drive to be bootable by a machine that doesn't already have an entry pointing to Ubuntu's shimx64.efi you need to copy shimx64.efi to /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI . | 07:04 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: If you don't have an ESP anywhere then you're not booting via UEFI. | 07:05 |

| irgendwer4711 | hi, I have a problem with Xen 4.6. VPCU hotpluggin is not working anymore. | 07:20 |
| Jordan_U | Rhombix: UEFI means that it's UEFI. "DualBIOS" is a Gigabyte marketing term for the fact that there is a backup of your boot firmware stored on your motherboard. Like almost all UEFI firmware, your UEFI machine can boot via UEFI or BIOS depending on how it's configured. It's confusing because "BIOS" is a word that can either mean "Boot Firware", "Boot Firmware that implements the BIOS interface", or "The | 07:23 |
| Jordan_U | BIOS interface" depending on the context. I try not to refer to boot firmware as "The BIOS" when using a UEFI machine, but most other people (and motherboard manufacturers) do. | 07:23 |

| sary | ws2k3: #see man cpufreq-set . | 08:04 |
| ws2k3 | sary i know i can do it with the cpu-freq-set command. but i want to do it at boot not manualy | 08:05 |
| sary | ws2k3: then you need cpufrequtils , and adjust in /etc/sysfs.conf .. | 08:06 |
| ws2k3 | sary /etc/sysfs.conf does not seems to exsist i should create it? | 08:07 |
| sary | ws2k3: does /etc/default/cpufrequtils exist now .. no you will have /etc/sysfs.conf after you install sysfsutils .. please read the docs! | 08:12 |

| john__ | Not run ubuntu for a while but need it, 16.04, for a project. So tried 4 times to install it on a laptop. | 09:05 |
| john__ | a few hours later I have to give up and go | 09:05 |
| john__ | But how do you do it? The machine has an ext4 '/' partition, and ext4 '/opt' partition and an encrypted '/home' partition | 09:06 |
| john__ | I don't think that's too strange. But Ubuntu refuses to install. I've got it to the point that it's now not happy with swap. Does not try and create the swap in whatever way it wants the swap | 09:07 |
| john__ | Doesn't tell me how to do it. And even if it did I now can't boot the machine so how exactly? Looked in the LIVE part of the install and gparted nor disks offers any sort of encrypted swap area. | 09:08 |
| john__ | Like I say I have to go now but I'll check back later, to see if there's some option for this. I guess the way to run it is in a VM but this machine is a bit thin for that. | 09:09 |

| yeeve | hey chat, I have a separate num-pad keyboard plugged into USB, is it possible to map actions/scripts to the keys completely separately to my main keyboards num-pad? I've seen tools like luamacros but it seems too complex for my use case but I will try it if I have to | 10:24 |
| yeeve | Using 'xev' I'm able to see the 6 key on each keyboard has the same keycode but a different serial so it feels like I should be able to tell ubuntu to ignore all inputs from a specific serial ID | 10:24 |

| oerheks | nocco, check the HQdatabase | 10:34 |

| oerheks | best thing is to run it on windows itself | 10:34 |
| nocco | yeah I can imagine that. I'm a web developer and I thing going to ubuntu instead of mac which I'm using today. Sometimes I need to look at designs in photoshops. Is it good enough for that? any idea? | 10:38 |
| ducasse | nocco: running a windows application on linux is kind of the wrong way to do things, imho | 10:39 |

| yeeve | ducasse, once I have the device Id and the keycodes, what's the best way to run a script/action on a keypress and not have it output the default value (If I press 6 on the num-pad it should run a script but not input 6 on the screen) | 10:44 |
| ducasse | yeeve: depends, but normally when you bind a key in your wm/de it captures the output without printing it | 10:47 |
| yeeve | I see, I don't think I can use the wm/de keybinding stuff because it can't tell the difference between the "5" key on the small num-pad keyboard and "5" on my main keyboard's num-pad (I think at least but I guess I should confirm that) | 10:48 |

| yeeve | ducasse, appreciated, I'll give it a go with the info I have but if I don't get anywhere I'll come back to discuss it :) | 11:36 |
| ducasse | yeeve: np, good luck :) | 11:36 |
| EriC^^ | darkphoenix10: that's it, reboot as usual | 11:36 |
| darkphoenix10 | EriC^^: ok so what should I do in the move thing in GParted | 11:37 |
| EriC^^ | darkphoenix10: did you move the partition all the way back? | 11:37 |
| oerheks | darkphoenix10, your wlinux is mounted, unount those partitions with a key (locked) | 11:37 |
| oerheks | c/unmount | 11:38 |
| darkphoenix10 | Back to the very beginning of the drive? | 11:38 |
| EriC^^ | oerheks: huh, is this encryption? | 11:38 |
| EriC^^ | darkphoenix10: nevermind my advice in this case, no idea about encryption and resizing | 11:39 |
| darkphoenix10 | Oh ok | 11:39 |
| oerheks | oh encrypted.. didn't read that. | 11:39 |
| EriC^^ | oerheks: me neither, i thought that's what you were referring to with the key and stuff | 11:40 |
| oerheks | i refer to the pic https://image.ibb.co/jNvSwa/image.png | 11:40 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 11:40 |
| oerheks | sda10 and 11 are locked now | 11:40 |
| darkphoenix10 | I unmounted sda10 | 11:40 |
| darkphoenix10 | should I unmount 11 as well? | 11:41 |
| EriC^^ | darkphoenix10: can you pastebin "sudo parted -l" ? | 11:41 |
| darkphoenix10 | will do | 11:41 |
| darkphoenix10 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/25283130/ | 11:42 |
| EriC^^ | that doesn't look like it's encrypted afaik | 11:43 |
| Kartagis | ahoy | 11:43 |
| EriC^^ | darkphoenix10: do you know if it's encrypted? did you have to enter a passphrase to mount it? | 11:44 |
| darkphoenix10 | no | 11:44 |
| EriC^^ | ok, carry on then | 11:45 |
| EriC^^ | right click > move, then right click resize | 11:45 |
| darkphoenix10 | yup, did that | 11:45 |
| darkphoenix10 | what should i input | 11:46 |
| EriC^^ | after move you mean? | 11:46 |
| Kartagis | is it possible to specify a command output as Hostname in .ssh/config? | 11:46 |
| oerheks | so between 7 - 259 Gb and 10 - 283 gb there is a gap of say 24 gb, no extended partition or such | 11:46 |
| EriC^^ | darkphoenix10: take a screenshot of gparted after pressing move | 11:46 |
| darkphoenix10 | https://image.ibb.co/g69j9v/image2.png | 11:50 |
| oerheks | drag it to the left. grab the black arrow and pull | 11:50 |
| darkphoenix10 | oerheks: sorry if this might be a stupid question but how far should I drag it left? | 11:52 |
| oerheks | all the way? unless you need some space for an other partition | 11:53 |
| oerheks | or increase the 'new size MB' to the max, 2 ways of doing this | 11:53 |
| darkphoenix10 | I'm dual booting Windows 10 in case you didn't know | 11:53 |
| darkphoenix10 | oerheks: Look at my previous message if you didn't already | 11:56 |
| darkphoenix10 | I really don't know what to do now tbh | 12:00 |
| MacroMan | Programs written in python that I'm running come up with this warning: https://hastebin.com/irozonekuq.pl | 12:02 |
| MacroMan | I've tried removing the offending packages and re-installing as well as re-installing the pyhton lib itself, to no avail. | 12:03 |
| MacroMan | This started randomly a few days ago when I install glances. I've removed glances and looked in the apt logs for anything else (there wasn't) and removed that too, but still the same error | 12:04 |
| MacroMan | Ah never mind. When I started to think about it, I discovered a propblem with pip, which I reinstalled and all is working now. | 12:10 |
| oerheks | darkphoenix10, win10 has nothing to do with this | 12:11 |
| oerheks | darkphoenix10, what do you not understand, dragging that black arrow next to that yellow/white partition to the left? | 12:12 |
| oerheks | that arrow got a white block around it, in your pic | 12:12 |
| darkphoenix10 | Oh that's what I have to do, sorry | 12:12 |
| oerheks | no problem, good you ask again | 12:13 |
| darkphoenix10 | oerheks: wait so I drag the arrow on the right to the left so then all I have is a yellow block? | 12:15 |
| darkphoenix10 | I just want to make sure | 12:15 |
| oerheks | darkphoenix10, yes | 12:16 |
| darkphoenix10 | Apparently an error occured | 12:16 |
| darkphoenix10 | oerheks: Error log is located here http://paste.ubuntu.com/25283287/ | 12:18 |
| oerheks | huh? line #42 shrink file system... | 12:19 |
| oerheks | i think you drag the wrong arrow .. | 12:20 |
| darkphoenix10 | resize2fs: New size smaller than minimum (1600310) | 12:20 |
| darkphoenix10 | that caught my attention | 12:20 |
| darkphoenix10 | Also brb | 12:20 |
| TomyWork | if i lose connection to a CIFS share, half my processes end up in "disk sleep". i usually do a "umount -fl /mnt/foo" to get rid of the broken mount | 12:25 |
| TomyWork | but the applications still freeze until their current timeout is over | 12:25 |
| TomyWork | i read somewhere that the nfs driver got rid of the need for disk sleep ages ago. has cifs caught up? am i missing a mount option? | 12:27 |
| TomyWork | my fstab line: //server/path/to/share /mnt/foo cifs uid=myself,gid=mygroup,credentials=/path/to/cifs/credentials,noauto,user 0 0 | 12:28 |
| darkphoenix10 | oerheks: so is this right then https://image.ibb.co/irRT2F/image3.png | 12:32 |
| oerheks | no, you should have grabbed the other arrow | 12:33 |
| oerheks | now you make it smaller | 12:33 |
| oerheks | hit cancel, and do it again | 12:33 |
| paynemaster | Hello everyone. I got a linux issue where my mouse cursor is stuck in the top left of the screen. i can still use mouse. its just invisible | 12:36 |
| darkphoenix10 | oerheks: So this right? https://image.ibb.co/gWOEba/image5.png | 12:37 |
| oerheks | wrong again .. now you started over, and made the partition smaller.. this is so simple.. | 12:40 |
| paynemaster | Anyone in here that could assist me with my issues? | 12:41 |
| oerheks | grey is empty space, drag that thing untill you don't see any grey | 12:41 |
| foozb12 | Any guess why a tty (after logged in) doesn't have any sort of space after the $ prompt? like: 'user@host:~$ls' instead of 'user@host:~$ ls' | 12:41 |
| darkphoenix10 | oerheks: this? https://image.ibb.co/ccGWpv/image6.png | 12:44 |
| darkphoenix10 | Sorry if it's supposed to be simple, I'm not really used to partitioning | 12:44 |
| darkphoenix10 | and using gparted | 12:45 |
| oerheks | darkphoenix10, yay! | 12:45 |
| darkphoenix10 | Thanks for your help | 12:45 |
| oerheks | yes, now hit the button reisize/move | 12:45 |
| oerheks | and after this, you would need to reinstall grub2 i think, as the UUID from that partition has changed | 12:45 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: which release is this? | 12:46 |
| oerheks | !grub | 12:46 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 12:46 |
| darkphoenix10 | oerheks: https://image.ibb.co/dbMvhF/image4.png should I ignore that | 12:46 |
| oerheks | that warning is correct, see my comment above | 12:46 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse I am not sure since it is pre installed on a tool with usb boot media | 12:46 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse the way i want it to be working is that the newest linux version is on it. it that possible? | 12:47 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: you would need to upgrade every time there is a new release | 12:47 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: do you have it in front of you? | 12:48 |
| Kman | How to install QT 5.0 (>=5.7) in Ubuntu 14.04? | 12:48 |
| paynemaster | No. i can, but i need to leave this channel | 12:48 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse why would i need to upgrade it everytime? | 12:48 |
| glitsj16 | foozb12: my guess would be your prompt definition lacks the space.. check ~/.bashrc | 12:49 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: if you always want the latest version you would need to upgrade | 12:49 |
| ducasse | Kman: you would need to use a ppa (unsupported) | 12:50 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse No i don't want the latest version. i tried ubuntu 17.04 and it works. So if i can make that usb media tool with that version on it. I am all set | 12:50 |
| Kman | ducasse: 14.04 is trusty? | 12:51 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: just boot the installer and install to the usb stick | 12:52 |
| ducasse | Kman: yes | 12:52 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: you can also use the installer as a live image, or with persistence | 12:53 |
| ducasse | !persistence | paynemaster | 12:53 |
| ubottu | paynemaster: To have some persistent storage when using a Live CD, follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence | 12:53 |
| Kman | ducasse: thanks | 12:53 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse not sure if that tool wil work then? | 12:53 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: what tool is this? on a stick with persistence it should. | 12:55 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse It is called SSD Utility. Made by toshiba. Inside the tool there is a option to make it bootable | 12:56 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: this is something you would need to ask toshiba about | 12:56 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse i tried to just install it at ubuntu 17.04 but i get a ''need superuser'' I am not so experienced at ubuntu. Thats why i want to use the bootable tool. | 12:58 |
| Kman | ducasse: i got qt 5.8 ppa, so how to update old qt 4.8 to this one? | 12:59 |
| ducasse | !sudo | paynemaster read this | 13:00 |
| ubottu | paynemaster read this: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !pkexec (for older releases: !gksu and !kdesudo). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 13:00 |
| Kman | ducasse: apt-get install qt58-meta-full? | 13:00 |
| Kman | I need the old QT 4.8 system replaced by 5.8 | 13:00 |
| ducasse | Kman: sounds like a bad idea to me, nor is it something we support here. look at the instructions for the ppa. | 13:02 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse yeah i tried it but still get it. tried to login with the new user with read and wright privileges. Stil not working. | 13:02 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: if you run the tool with sudo it is run as superuser, i can't tell you anything about a toshiba tool though | 13:05 |
| yeeve | ducasse, I got the xkb stuff working but I can't find a way to find/list all unused keys. I have a standard 104 key keyboard but xinput list seems to indicate that the keyboards support ~250 keys. I've seen example showing people remapping into the media keys but I already have WM/DE level shortcuts to map Ctrl+something to certain media functions :P | 13:05 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse no worrys about the toshiba tool. Thats my part. just looking for the easiest way to use it | 13:05 |
| yeeve | do you have any advice on where/how to find un-used keys on a keyboard? :S | 13:05 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse i am just talking with a agent from toshiba. He tells me that the core cannot be updated. so i cannot use the bootable media version i guess | 13:06 |
| ducasse | yeeve: hmm... iirc xbindkeys can print a list, look at the man page. also xmodmap. | 13:09 |
| yeeve | cheers dude :P will do | 13:09 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse what i am trying to do, is putt it on Yumi, so i can use it often. Is it possible to make some sort of ubuntu version, with the tools installed i need on yumi, so it can boot with everying on hand | 13:09 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: if this toshiba tool is part of an ubuntu image they modified, it is no longer supported here. we know nothing about what they did. if it is just a binary you should be able to run it from any install (that has the necessary libraries, if shared) | 13:12 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse yeah i understand. i can still download a linux version of the tool from their site. I am just trying to make it stick on the ubuntu os and try to putt it on Yumi. Because i not have acces to the internet all the time | 13:16 |
| Kartagis | how can I use a dynamic IP as Hostname in .ssh/config? | 13:16 |
| Kman | ducasse: i have qt 5.8 installed, but qmake is still using qt 5.2. how do i update qmake? | 13:16 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse is that possible? | 13:17 |
| john_doe_jr | When I log in my linux box using ssh…it logs in but then just stalls…I press "CTRL-C" and it says, "-bash: [: too many arguments" ….anybody got an idea why this is happening? | 13:17 |

| marvin42 | how can I upgrade from 16.10 to 17.04? | 13:18 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: i'm a little confused as to exactly what this toshiba tool is - is it just a program, or part of a full ubuntu install to make it bootable? | 13:18 |
| justsomeone12321 | Hi! I have following problem, I want to install openmesh. After adding the repository "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nakednous/ppa" and updating, it says "The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/nakednous/ppa/ubuntu xenial Release' does not have a Release file." and now it is unable to locate the package. What do I have to do? Thank you for your time! | 13:19 |
| hateball | marvin42: using GUI or a terminal? | 13:19 |
| ducasse | !upgrade | marvin42 | 13:19 |
| ubottu | marvin42: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 13:19 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse its just a program. i can give u the link to their page if u want | 13:19 |
| marvin42 | hateball, I'm comfortable with both | 13:19 |
| hateball | marvin42: ducasse provided some good information, otherwise just issue "sudo do-release-upgrade" in a terminal | 13:20 |
| marvin42 | ducasse, 16.10 is no longer supported so it won't upgrade using the normal method | 13:20 |
| hateball | !eolupgrade | marvin42 | 13:20 |
| ubottu | marvin42: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 13:20 |
| marvin42 | thanks hateball | 13:20 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: not necessary. if it runs on a certain ubuntu version you should be set using the persistance link i pointed you to above, not familiar with yumi | 13:21 |
| ducasse | hateball: has it been moved yet? that normally happens quite a while after it goes eol... | 13:22 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse this one right? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 13:22 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: that's for running it as superuser. if you want to run it from a usb use the persistence instructions. | 13:23 |
| ducasse | !persistence | paynemaster | 13:24 |
| ubottu | paynemaster: To have some persistent storage when using a Live CD, follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence | 13:24 |
| hfp | Hi, I have resized my LVM+LUKS partition to clone it to a smaller SSD. It worked great, but now my inner partition is much smaller than the outer partition and I can't seem to expand it to the full size... This is what it looks like in KDE partition manager (using a KaOS LiveCD because the KDE partition manager that ships with Ubuntu is very outdated and doesn't do LUKS volumes). cf https://imgur.com/a/14p9K | 13:25 |
| hfp | ie sda3 is 118GB but the volume group can only be 92GB at most | 13:26 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse but thats read only? Yumi is just a tool where u can set up a collection of bootable files (iso's) | 13:26 |
| hateball | ducasse: I didnt think it would have, but marvin42 says so | 13:26 |
| glitsj16 | justsomeone12321: looks like the PPA doesn't support 16.04 xenial, hence you don't see any openmesh package | 13:26 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: persistence is to give you writable storage | 13:26 |
| marvin42 | ducasse, yeah, I'm unable to upgrade using the standard method | 13:27 |
| marvin42 | hateball, will it also upgrade debi installed packages? such as virtualbox? | 13:28 |
| hfp | (hey paynemaster) | 13:28 |
| ducasse | marvin42: hateball: hmm, odd. well, good to know :) | 13:28 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse ah oke i get it. sounds good. Do i still need to worry about superuser preveliges this way? | 13:28 |
| sammyg | how to tell if i have a web server installed from ssh console? | 13:29 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: yes, read the sudo page | 13:29 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse there is no way it boots up with superuser allready? So i can start right awat? | 13:32 |
| Kman | Is it possible to upgrade qt 5.2 /4.8 to QT 5.8 for ubunt 14.04? | 13:33 |
| justsomeone12321 | glitsj16: thank you! | 13:34 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: for a live image with persistence, it's probably a lot easier to just type 'sudo' in front of the command to start the tool | 13:36 |
| glitsj16 | justsomeone12321: no problem, might just purge that ppa if you don't use it for anything else, avoid clutter | 13:36 |
| hateball | marvin42: if you've sideloaded packages from outside the ubuntu repos, then no those wont be upgraded (how could they?) | 13:37 |
| justsomeone12321 | glitsj16: purged it :-) | 13:37 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse Still trying to figure out which sudo command i need for running it | 13:39 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: what do you type to start the tool? | 13:40 |
| paynemaster | @ducasse not sure since it might be different with this file | 13:42 |
| ducasse | paynemaster: whatever it is, just put 'sudo ' in front of it | 13:43 |
| yeeve | ducasse, It seems I'm able to change xkb_symbols easy enough but I feel I need to remap the numpad to different keycodes not keysymbols so I can just say if keycode:230 pressed do X becuase I'll know 230 doesn't exist on my main keyboard at all where as the Symbols seem difficult to work out if they're actually used :S Am I misunderstanding? | 13:43 |
| marvin42 | hateball, yeah, I was thinking that perhaps gdebi would take care of it. thanks! | 13:44 |
| ducasse | yeeve: sounds sane, and afaicr xbindkeys can be mapped to keycodes. | 13:44 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse give me a second booting into ubuntu right now | 13:45 |
| yeeve | The trouble seems to be that xkb_symbols worked OK for me but xkb_keycodes doesn't seem to. I think the syntax is different so I'm probably missing something :P I'll keep reading :D | 13:45 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse it is a .tar.gz file | 13:46 |
| ducasse | paynemaster_: that's an archive, you need to extract it. | 13:46 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse yeah i did. Made a folder on desktop where i extracted it to | 13:47 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse i guess its ''x_exe...'' | 13:49 |
| ducasse | paynemaster_: possibly, try 'sudo ./x_exe...' from that directory | 13:50 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse so that will be ''sudo .x-exe... /home/ubuntu/desktop/SSDUtility''? | 13:53 |
| ducasse | paynemaster_: is /home/ubuntu/desktop/SSDUtility the folder or the program? | 13:54 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse SSDUtility is the program | 13:56 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse that is the folder to the program | 13:57 |
| ducasse | paynemaster_: then 'sudo /home/ubuntu/desktop/SSDUtility' | 13:57 |
| ducasse | paynemaster_: i've gtg. read the sudo link, it is clearly explained there. | 13:58 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse says:Command not found | 13:58 |
| ducasse | paynemaster_: no, then it is the folder. give it the full path and name of the command. | 13:59 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse that is the full name? :( | 14:00 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse i oke think i follow you. that includes the previous line right? | 14:00 |
| ducasse | try 'chmod +x /home/ubuntu/desktop/SSDUtility' then try again | 14:00 |
| jnewt | simple scan won't scan back or front & back. used to work with old scanner, got a new one (same brand, just current model Fujitsu Scansnap iX500) and it is like i the selection doesn't do anything. No matter which i choose, it always only scans the front of a page | 14:02 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse it is case sensetive right? | 14:03 |
| ducasse | paynemaster_: yes | 14:03 |
| ducasse | paynemaster_: read the link i gave you, i've really got to go now. | 14:03 |
| paynemaster_ | @ducasse ah oke well thanks for the big help! i will try to get into it | 14:04 |
| eelstrebor | i guess i was wrong - they still haven't fixed the amdgpu driver problem in 16.04.3 | 14:04 |
| eelstrebor | http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-PRO-Driver-Compatibility-Advisory-with-Ubuntu-16.04.2-and-16.04.3.aspx | 14:05 |
| jnewt | Log from scanner: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25283722/ | 14:05 |
| * eelstrebor guesses they ain't in any big hurry to fix it - probably because there isn't any more money going into their coffers | 14:06 | |
| paynemaster_ | Anyone here can help me out? trying to get superuser privileges | 14:09 |
| himcesjf | !sudo | paynemaster_ | 14:10 |
| ubottu | paynemaster_: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !pkexec (for older releases: !gksu and !kdesudo). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 14:10 |
| paynemaster_ | thanks but i allready got that page. can't seem to find anything about running or installing | 14:11 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: try 'sudo bash' | 14:13 |
| paynemaster_ | sudo (program name) should be it right? | 14:13 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: run 'whereis sudo' | 14:14 |
| paynemaster_ | @gabrielc yeah i got a path now? | 14:15 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: run '/path/to/whereis bash' ie '/usr/bin/sudo bash' or '/usr/bin/sudo /bin/bash' | 14:16 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: sorry. '/path/to/sudo bash' | 14:16 |
| paynemaster_ | @gabrielc i just need superuser privileges to run a tool | 14:16 |
| geirha | sudo -i | 14:17 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: if sudo bash is successful your prompt will change from $ to # | 14:18 |
| paynemaster_ | @gabrielc i got no clue what that has to do with my problem? :S | 14:19 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: what is your problem? | 14:19 |
| yeeve | ducasse, I can get the xkb_symbols to work but if I try to remap the keycodes it doesn't seem to do anything and doesn't show any errors. I feel like I've got the syntax correct but It's just not working - code: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25283820/ does anything stand out as being _wrong_? | 14:20 |
| paynemaster_ | @gabrielc trying to get superuser previleges to run a tool which is on my desktop | 14:21 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: what graphical environment are you using? | 14:22 |
| paynemaster_ | @gabrielc how to tell? | 14:23 |
| geirha | you can drag its icon from the desktop to the terminal window to have the exact path to it written in the terminal | 14:23 |
| paynemaster_ | @gabrielc its is Ubuntu 17.04 | 14:23 |
| paynemaster_ | @geirha yeah i tried that but i still get no previleges | 14:24 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: on ubuntu 16 you can use gksudo | 14:24 |
| paynemaster_ | how hard can it be to just run a tool in ubuntu -_- | 14:25 |
| geirha | paynemaster_: what type of file is it? Use the file command on it: file /path/to/tool | 14:25 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: https://askubuntu.com/questions/284306/why-is-gksu-no-longer-installed-by-default | 14:25 |
| paynemaster_ | @geurha no sure what i need to putt in | 14:28 |
| paynemaster_ | @geirha not sure what u want me to putt in to see what file it is | 14:28 |
| paynemaster_ | @geurha can't i just look at it in properties? | 14:28 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: open a terminal and run 'sudo apt-get install gksu'. when done run gksu (from the same terminal) and a graphical windows will appear | 14:32 |
| paynemaster_ | @gabrielc yeah i did some say done. done last says unable to locate package gksu. Is that normal? | 14:33 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: you can install the packages | 14:34 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: do you have the universe component enabled? did you run `sudo apt update` first? | 14:34 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc no. i am a beginner on ubuntu | 14:35 |
| paynemaster_ | @gabriel so i used sudo apt-get install gksu. Now i need to open gksu? | 14:35 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: yes, gksu or gksudo, try first with gksudo | 14:36 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: did `sudo apt-get install gksu` succeed? you just said it said "unable to locate package gksu" | 14:36 |
| yeeve | ducasse, I have a working example using keysymbols and xbindkeys :) thanks for all your help. still have a lot to read/learn but this is awesome so far! | 14:36 |
| yeeve | do we have karma in this channel? | 14:36 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc i don't know if it succeeded | 14:36 |
| gabrielc | paynemaster_: https://askubuntu.com/questions/148638/how-do-i-enable-the-universe-repository | 14:37 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: did it install anything? or did it fail with the message you said? | 14:37 |
| ducasse | yeeve: cool, congrats :) | 14:37 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc i guess it failed with that message. Because i see nothing installed | 14:38 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: right, so first enable universe, then run `sudo apt update`, then run `sudo apt install gksu` | 14:38 |

| Optiprism | Hi, I'm trying to get a fresh reinstall of everything on my ubuntu, I've read that "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh -a" will do the trick, is this correct? | 14:40 |
| jnewt | just went to see if i should file a bug report for my scanner not working. there's 132,208 open bugs on launchpad.net/ubuntu ... i'm guessing one scanner not scanning the back page isn't getting any attention :( | 14:42 |
| pizzaBurger | Hey guys! I have a micro SD card and its not mounting. Checked 'sudo parted -l' and it does not show up. Any other way to test if the card is dead or not? Thanks! | 14:42 |
| nacc | jnewt: imo, you should always file a bug | 14:43 |
| nacc | Pyrrhic: see the link from gabrielc a moment ago | 14:43 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: --^ | 14:43 |
| nacc | Pyrrhic: sorry, mis-tab | 14:43 |
| nacc | Optiprism: why not just reinstall? | 14:43 |
| ducasse | jnewt: look at sane-project.org if duplex is supported by your scanner driver | 14:44 |
| ducasse | pizzaBurger: lsblk | 14:44 |
| Optiprism | nacc: thought there was a better option, since I don't want to mess with boot orders and stuff | 14:44 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc sorry but i can't seem to find the right command on that page. -_- | 14:44 |
| bane5000 | Anybody know of a working chromium apparmor profile for 16.04? | 14:44 |
| jnewt | ducasse: shows status Good, says "small, current, WiFi not supported. Hardware only scans in color. Backend generates binary and grayscale modes." | 14:45 |
| pizzaBurger | ducasse: so if it doesn't show up, and I know that every other part of the chain is working, that means the card is dead beyond repair? | 14:46 |
| ducasse | jnewt: i *think* it's usually mentioned if duplex is supported | 14:47 |
| ducasse | pizzaBurger: it would seem so | 14:47 |
| nacc | Optiprism: well, the command you gave just reconfigures packages, it doesn't 'reinstall' them | 14:47 |
| pizzaBurger | ducasse: alright, thanks a ton once again! | 14:47 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc all i am asking is just to get superuser privileges | 14:48 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: use sudo? | 14:48 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc its not working... | 14:48 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc i need to run a tool from toshiba. but i need superuser privileges | 14:49 |
| jnewt | ducasse: it says good means the device is usable for day-to-day work and exotic features may be missing. mine blinks a the front light constantly, no wifi (that's ok), and will only scan one-side. would you say that qualifies as "good"? i'd say that would be minimal or basic at best. | 14:49 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: how did you try to run it with sudo? | 14:49 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc all sorts of ways. ''sudo /home/ubuntu/Desktop/SSDUtility | 14:50 |
| ducasse | jnewt: you'd need to take that up with the sane devs, not me | 14:50 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: as you've been told, if it's graphical, you probably need gksudo and need to install it. You've also been told how to add universe. | 14:51 |
| nacc | !components| paynemaster_: if you need it again | 14:51 |
| ubottu | paynemaster_: if you need it again: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. | 14:51 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc they havent told be how i would know if its graphical | 14:52 |
| ducasse | jnewt: try #sane | 14:52 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: so you're trying to run a tool you don't know what it does or how to run it? | 14:53 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: also, what happens if you run it with sudo? | 14:53 |
| paynemaster_ | @nacc ofcourse i know what it does. why would i be here the first place. i just need to get superuser | 14:54 |
| paynemaster_ | the heck | 14:55 |
| paynemaster_ | for some reason i got it working now :S | 14:55 |
| paynemaster_ | just sudo /home/ubuntu/desktop/ssdutility just opened it. doing it all the time but for some reason it worked now. anyone can explain? | 14:56 |
| sparky1 | hello? | 14:56 |
| sparky1 | anyone help me with getting realtek rtl8723bs working? | 14:57 |
| paynemaster_ | no reply? | 15:00 |
| sparky1 | nope | 15:01 |
| paynemaster_ | lol | 15:01 |
| paynemaster_ | makes no sense to me really | 15:01 |
| paynemaster_ | still got no clue why i needed to install universe when it is working now :S | 15:03 |
| oerheks | paynemaster_, then universe was enabled already | 15:03 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: because you *said* sudo didn't work. | 15:03 |
| nacc | paynemaster_: we aren't at your system, we have to trust you | 15:03 |
| paynemaster_ | wel its a clean install. so i guess its enebled as default | 15:04 |
| ducasse | sparky1: you can try this driver - https://github.com/hadess/rtl8723bs | 15:04 |
| ducasse | sparky1: no guarantees, realtek chipsets are usually crap | 15:04 |
| oerheks | ducasse +1, or this ppa https://launchpad.net/~russianneuromancer/+archive/ubuntu/drivers | 15:04 |
| paynemaster_ | sadly this ssd is not showing up :( | 15:05 |

| vlt | Hello. I realized that each user's home directory could be read by any other user on our Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. With the intention to change that I ran `cd /home; chmod 0700 *`. In /home there are also a few dirs of currently "disabled" users named ".user" so I ran `chmod 0700 .*`, too and THAT might have been a huge mistake. | 15:20 |
| vlt | What does ".*" mean inside /home? | 15:21 |
| vlt | Does it include somehow ".." as well? | 15:21 |
| ducasse | vlt: try 'cd /home ; echo .*' | 15:22 |
| vlt | ducasse: Yes, I get ". .. .user1 .user2". | 15:23 |
| sparky1 | cannot seem to find it | 15:23 |
| vlt | So I set "." (which should refer to /home itself) and ".." to 0700. What is /home/.. (/) supposed to be on standard Ubuntu? | 15:25 |
| gabrielc | vlt: read the man for chown too | 15:25 |
| gabrielc | vlt: /dir/.. is / and /dir/. is /dir | 15:27 |

| yeeve | ducasse, problems! xbindkeys doesn't seem to support the keysyms, XF86MonBrightnessDown doesn't trigger but the other format like "m:0x0 + c:77" will, the issue is that the second format effects buttons on both keyboards ... am I missing something obvous? | 15:39 |
| yeeve | I did try "Mod2 + XF86MonBrightnessDown" and just "XF86MonBrightnessDown" but neither seem to trigger the command | 15:39 |
| oerheks | PCatinean, no idea there :-( | 15:40 |
| ducasse | yeeve: can you ask xbindkeys to run in the foreground with verbose output, see what it says? | 15:40 |
| yeeve | ducasse, I tried running it `xbindkeys -n` but it doesn't show any output when I hit the keys but it does mention "Please verify that there is not another program running which captures one of the keys captured by xbindkeys." on startup | 15:42 |
| ducasse | yeeve: ok, kill xbindkeys and see if xev captures the key | 15:43 |
| ducasse | yeeve: i would expect that key to be bound by default in a de | 15:43 |
| marvin42 | ducasse, while running the update my computer crashed | 15:43 |
| yeeve | xev captures all the keys and shows the correct keysyms (It shows state 0x0, keycode 77 (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightnessDown), same_screen YES) | 15:44 |
| marvin42 | ducasse, I'm able to access it via the terminal. what can I do to resume and finish the upgrade process? | 15:44 |
| ducasse | yeeve: that would usually mean it isn't captured by another process... | 15:45 |
| yeeve | ducasse, it is possible I've messed this up somewhere else. I do have a few custom shortcuts I was playing around with before (I don't have media keys on my keyboard so I was assuming I technically didn't do this myself but you never know) | 15:45 |
| ducasse | marvin42: try 'sudo apt install -f' first, and then 'sudo apt full-upgrade' | 15:45 |
| ducasse | marvin42: after that, 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' | 15:46 |
| yeeve | ducasse, this is my .xbindkeyssrc - http://paste.ubuntu.com/25284191/ none of the commands run so maybe the media key stuff just won't work for me :S | 15:46 |
| ducasse | marvin42: then pray if that's your thing :) | 15:46 |
| marvin42 | ducasse, doing 'sudo apt install -f' he asks me to do 'dkpg --configure -a'. I've done it. Plugin'n'praying now | 15:47 |
| ducasse | yeeve: i don't get why xbindkeys can't see the events... | 15:48 |
| ducasse | yeeve: are you using a de or a wm? | 15:48 |
| ducasse | marvin42: remember the full-upgrade, it's important | 15:49 |
| yeeve | I'm using XFCE | 15:49 |
| marvin42 | ducasse, after the sudo dpkg --configure -a? | 15:50 |
| yeeve | It's odd that it's not triggering on the keysyms format only, the other method did work, just on both sets of keypads | 15:50 |
| ducasse | marvin42: the important thing is that you run it | 15:50 |
| marvin42 | ducasse, right! thanks a lot! | 15:51 |
| ducasse | marvin42: yw, i hope it works. it usually has when it's happened to me... | 15:51 |
| yeeve | ducasse, it also seems odd that xbindkeys -k shows the key being picked up in that case, it's only when you actually try to define the command it doesn't seem to work | 15:51 |
| ducasse | yeeve: i'd be interested to know if this happens if you're only running a wm... could you install something like openbox to test without xfce getting in the way? | 15:53 |
| yeeve | It must be WM/DE getting in the way :S If I define it as "m:0x0 + c:77" it works instantly and `xbindkeys -n` doesn't show that warning on startup :s | 15:53 |
| ducasse | right :) | 15:53 |
| ducasse | worth a shot. | 15:53 |
| yeeve | ducasse, I can't test that at the moment but I'll add it to my list to try tomorrow. I guess you're expecting the XF86 format to work on a basic WM straight away | 15:54 |
| ducasse | yeeve: there shouldn't be anything else interfering, unless the wm does so in the default config. pretty sure openbox for example doesn't do that. | 15:55 |
| ducasse | iirc there are two places to set kb bindings in xfce, one is under wm settings and the other is under keyboard. have you looked through both? | 15:56 |
| yeeve | Ok dude :) is it fairly safe to install openbox on a running system? I tried installing i3 before and it broke my XFCE login just being apt-getting it :P | 15:56 |
| ducasse | it absolutely should not do that. if something happens just purge the package and restart the display manager. | 15:57 |
| yeeve | WM Keyboard - doesn't have any XF86 type shortcuts defined. The basic Keyboard does have a couple like XF86WWW and XF86Mail but neither are used | 15:58 |
| ducasse | i'm guessing xfsettingsd is what would grab those keys, if something does, but that's just a WAG... | 16:01 |
| yeeve | WAG? | 16:01 |
| ducasse | wild-a** guess | 16:01 |
| yeeve | lol :P | 16:01 |
| yeeve | I think you're probably right, it's got to be XFCE getting in the way now :@ | 16:02 |
| ducasse | there are so many layers it's hard to tell without trying something simpler | 16:02 |
| yeeve | I didn't realise half of the tech that went into this stuff, I've been through a lot of new stuff I didn't even know existed :P messy but interesting | 16:03 |
| yeeve | I'm sure I'll figure it out now I know what to be looking out for :P hopefully I can fix it without ditching XFCE but to be honest I do need to reinstall and have been looking at a few other WM/DE | 16:03 |
| yeeve | ducasse, I don't restart very often, do you think restarting my system might make everything fall into place if xbindkeys gets loaded before the WM key listener? Is that maybe too optimistic of a thought? | 16:05 |
| ducasse | not sure how that would work, or indeed how to do that. you could launch xbindkeys from ~/.xsessionrc, but i'm not sure what would start first | 16:06 |
| ducasse | yeeve: btw, i switched from xfce to i3 a couple of years ago, have not looked back. my needs are simple, though. | 16:09 |
| yeeve | that's interesting, I might have to reconsider doing it sooner rather than later :P in your opinion, should I reinstall with 17.04 or is it worth waiting for 17.10? | 16:10 |
| ducasse | yeeve: imo the upgrade is so simple it doesn't matter. just don't use a ton of ppas and it should upgrade just fine. i run 17.10 now, and it works well. lots of daily updates, though. | 16:11 |
| yeeve | I see, so go with 17.04 and then upgrade to 17.10? | 16:12 |
| yeeve | how do you have 17.10 already? Is it easy to get early-access to it? | 16:12 |
| ducasse | if you need to upgrade soon, i'd do that. 17.10 is publicly available, but i can't in good conscience recommend depending on a development release for your daily driver. | 16:14 |
| yeeve | Ah OK, I'll bare that in mind :) thanks for all the info today ducasse | 16:16 |
| marvin42 | ducasse, apparently everything's fine. thanks a lot! | 16:16 |
| ducasse | yeeve: np. if you want to test 17.10 you can join #ubuntu+1 for support with that :) | 16:17 |
| yeeve | aha awesome :) | 16:17 |
| kappa1 | hi | 16:18 |
| ducasse | marvin42: good :) if you had any ppas before the upgrade, they will be disabled now, so in that case look into re-enabling them. | 16:18 |
| kappa1 | I am trying to boot ubuntu through rEFInd | 16:18 |
| kappa1 | the problem is that refind is not passing the control to grub as it did before with refit | 16:18 |
| marvin42 | ducasse, so I'll have to upgrade manually the packages I've installed with gdebi? I'm concerned with a virtualbox machine.. | 16:19 |
| ducasse | marvin42: i'm talking about ppas, not locally installed packages. btw, you also need to run 'apt autoremove' to remove old stuff. | 16:21 |
| thinky | hi | 16:22 |

| FrostbyteGR | Hey there guys, I'm having trouble getting an I2C sensor working on Raspberry Pi 3 using Ubuntu 16.04 .. any clue? Installed libi2c-dev and added i2c-dev in /etc/modules but no dice, i2cdetect -r 1 displays just hyphens | 17:14 |
| FrostbyteGR | I can confirm that the sensor works properly on an ASUS Tinker Board also running ubuntu from armbian | 17:14 |
| nemo | adac: at least on my bog standard ubuntu desktop ntp was indeed installed by default and launched | 17:15 |
| nemo | adac: I have no idea what's up with your machine, but easily fixed by installing it and starting it ☺ | 17:15 |
| nemo | sudo service ntp start | 17:15 |
| vlt | adac: Afaik, recent ubuntu versions don't use the ntp pkg and do their own time syncing. | 17:16 |
| nemo | adac: maybe you accidentally removed it when installing one of the other time packages | 17:16 |
| nemo | vlt: he has same 14.04 as me | 17:16 |
| nemo | vlt: link I sent him above says this is what ubuntu does these days.. https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/NTP.html#timedatectl no idea if that's accurate with very latest distros | 17:17 |
| pavlos | FrostbyteGR: you may need to run sudo raspi-config and enable i2c in advanced options | 17:17 |
| nemo | vlt: but anyway. pretty sure my ntp under 14.04 is just the standard ubuntu settings | 17:17 |
| FrostbyteGR | pavlos: raspi-config is not available. neither at the image, nor at the repository | 17:17 |
| FrostbyteGR | I've executed the actions this procedure would do (/etc/modules and so on) | 17:18 |
| adac | vlt, nemo I'm still confused :( not surehow I can check which service is responsible for my time sync | 17:18 |
| adac | ntpdate seems to be installed | 17:18 |
| pavlos | FrostbyteGR: here's a link if it helps (see the i2c section) ... https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/raspberry-pi-spi-and-i2c-tutorial | 17:18 |
| FrostbyteGR | pavlos: I have already read that, and it doesn't mention anything besides the raspi-config way | 17:19 |
| FrostbyteGR | is it possible to get raspi-config from somewhere? I've heard it's dangerous to use though, as it's has been deprecated | 17:20 |
| adac | nemo, vlt https://gist.github.com/anonymous/c466db185b96a53af321ce04b0428ec5 | 17:21 |
| adac | actually this is the output of timedatectl | 17:21 |
| pavlos | FrostbyteGR: you should be able to apt update and then apt install raspi-config | 17:23 |
| FrostbyteGR | One moment please, I just found out something | 17:23 |
| FrostbyteGR | dtparam=i2c_vc=on enables /dev/i2c-0 | 17:24 |
| nemo | adac: welp.. apt-file says that ntp provides /usr/sbin/ntpd which does not surprise me terribly ☺ | 17:24 |
| nemo | openntpd does too apparently | 17:25 |
| dckx | hi everyone, I've trying to figure this one out a coouple of days now with no success. The 50-ssynaptics.conf file disappeared from X11/Xorg.conf.d. What file is now storing my touchpad settings? There is a 70-synapptics.conf file, but I added some custom stuff and when I run synclient on terminal, after rebooting, the changes are not being applied. | 17:25 |
| nemo | adac: aaand surprise surprise, dpkg confirms that's where my ntpd comes from ☺ soooo | 17:25 |
| El_Goose | Hi! I'm trying to do something in an Ubuntu VM but I keep getting this error of "read only filesystem" how do I fix this? | 17:29 |
| adac | nemo, this seems to be the problem | 17:34 |
| FrostbyteGR | pavlos: E: Unable to locate package raspi-config | 17:34 |
| adac | https://www.tecklyfe.com/fix-ubuntu-timedatectl-ntp-sync-no/ | 17:34 |
| pavlos | FrostbyteGR: you may need a repo in sources.list ... let me look | 17:35 |
| FrostbyteGR | pavlos: I was not able to query the sensor via /dev/i2c-0 , but I get the 0x43 and 0x1c addresses there | 17:35 |
| vlt | El_Goose: Recent Ubuntu versions seem to need a line in /etc/fstab for / to mount it rw. | 17:35 |
| FrostbyteGR | pavlos: the expected address according to the sensor datasheet is 0x44 .. so close :( | 17:35 |
| nemo | adac: ah. that makes sense. I guess due to upgrade from an older ubuntu? this system here was a clean fresh install of 14.04 | 17:36 |
| adac | nemo, I have no clue where this comes from actually. Could be yes | 17:39 |
| adac | nemo, from the howto this "Update NTP Time And Start Service" is not actually working | 17:39 |
| adac | there is no ntp | 17:40 |
| nemo | adac: apt-get reinstall ntp I guess? | 17:40 |
| nemo | er install --reinstall ? | 17:41 |
| nemo | never remember how that command works | 17:41 |
| adac | nemo, it was not isntalled at all | 17:42 |
| adac | i just installed it via apt-get install | 17:42 |

| Exterminador | hello guys. I've tried to install a snap on one spare machine that I have, but seems OpenVZ doesn't support snap installs. it there any way to circumvent that? | 20:11 |
| fradeco | ducasse: was in the gnome chat, there i didn't to mention that ;) | 20:12 |
| fradeco | but there is not too much going on there | 20:12 |
| ducasse | fradeco: don't think gnome supports that as-is, but you can probably do it yourself with xbindkeys and wmctrl | 20:12 |
| fradeco | I think i came right out of the box with that... | 20:14 |
| fradeco | *it | 20:14 |
| ducasse | Exterminador: snaps require some relatively recent kernel features to work afaik, i'm guessing your host doesn't offer them | 20:17 |
| Exterminador | seems not | 20:18 |
| Exterminador | still kernel 2.6 I guess | 20:18 |
| fradeco | ducasse: it seems to be controlled by a default extension: Windownavigator | 20:19 |
| fradeco | if i turn that off it is not possible to select a window with alt anymore | 20:20 |
| Jordan_U | Exterminador: The last 2.6.xx release was in 2011. You should consider whether or not you want to continue with a host using such an old kernel. | 20:23 |
| oerheks | 2.6 .. sounds like vagrant? | 20:25 |
| Exterminador | what's the latest kernel for OpenVZ? | 20:25 |
| oerheks | 2.6 is the latest for openvz .. with some patches i guess.. | 20:25 |
| Exterminador | it's the one they're using | 20:26 |
| Exterminador | lxc containers are similar right? | 20:26 |
| * oerheks is not saying it is old and vulnerable.. just not that sophisticated | 20:27 | |
| Exterminador | yeah. seems lxc containers work same way | 20:29 |
| Exterminador | no way to install snaps? | 20:29 |
| oerheks | no, openvz does not support lxc, HW virtualisation or windows support https://openvz.org/Comparison | 20:29 |
| Jordan_U | Exterminador: oerheks: From what I gather OpenVZ is a technology supported by the upstream kernel, at least for most features, and thus the latest "OpenVZ kernel" would be 4.12. | 20:30 |
| Exterminador | I do have an lxc machine somewhere | 20:30 |
| Exterminador | I was trying to install a rocketchat-server | 20:31 |
| oerheks | vagrant supports up to 14.04 ... so snap support is possible | 20:31 |
| oerheks | Jordan_U, ah, patched it is | 20:32 |
| Exterminador | but the command they provide is 'snap install rockectchat-server' | 20:32 |
| Exterminador | and none of them did supported that. I guess only my KVM server do support it | 20:33 |
| Jordan_U | Exterminador: I don't think you can use snaps within any other container technology. KVM is virtualization rather than containerization so it will work fine. | 20:34 |
| Jordan_U | oerheks: http://openvz.livejournal.com/42793.html says that patches are desireable but not required for using OpenVZ, unless that has changed since 2012. | 20:36 |
| Exterminador | well, but on the KVM server I have some warning on webmin related to /snap about no space left I guess | 20:37 |
| Bundestrojaner | good evening. how can i set the environment variable for sane mentioned in note 3? http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-announce/2017/000036.html | 20:38 |
| Bundestrojaner | my frontend is xsane | 20:39 |
| Jordan_U | Bundestrojaner: I believe that "SANE_USB_WORKAROUND=1 xsane" should do it. | 20:39 |
| Bundestrojaner | Jordan_U: i think so too, but i have no idea in which config file | 20:40 |
| Jordan_U | Bundestrojaner: Literally run that in a terminal and things should work. Do you want help changing the launcher so you don't have to use the terminal to launch xsane? | 20:42 |
| Bundestrojaner | Jordan_U: without export? | 20:42 |
| Bundestrojaner | Jordan_U: Changing the launcher would be great | 20:42 |
| Jordan_U | Bundestrojaner: Correct. Setting the variable in the same line as you run the command exports the variable for just that command. If you ran "SANE_USB_WORKAROUND=1; export SANE_USB_WORKAROUND; xsane" it would also work. I think that you should test that running the command I gave actually allows your scanner to work. | 20:44 |
| Bundestrojaner | Jordan_U: I've just exectuted "SANE_USB_WORKAROUND=1; export SANE_USB_WORKAROUND; xsane" - it didn't work. But i have no idea if the workaround works for my scanner... | 20:46 |
| Jordan_U | Bundestrojaner: Are you even using Sane-backends 1.0.27? It apparently was only released in May, and that workaround doesn't apply to earlier versions. | 20:48 |
| Bundestrojaner | 1.0.27 | 20:50 |
| Jordan_U | Bundestrojaner: It appears that particular workaround is not going to get your scanner working. | 20:54 |

| pvl1 | so. packages (.deb) are specific to versions right? like, if u cant find one for ur version of debian/linux, you should compile | 22:52 |
| pvl1 | or risk breaking stuff | 22:52 |
| pvl1 | s/so\.// | 22:53 |
| pvl1 | oh kool that worked lol | 22:53 |
| nacc | pvl1: you should not mix packages from different versions, yes. | 22:53 |
| pvl1 | UGH | 22:53 |
| pvl1 | FINE | 22:53 |
| donofrio_ | If anyone has some time and feel like helping here is my new install of 17.04 and I get this (mouse moves aross both screens and I can even bring up terminal on left side - any thoughts of how to fix? https://1drv.ms/i/s!AsBlZbBf72iNm4Z_w3Cbr3OW7rNKHw hwinfo@ https://apaste.info/naDx | 22:59 |
| behelit | On deep water: trying to upgrade 10.04 on a live server :) Have updated all sources to old-releases, but now I'm hit with "ERROR:root:Can not find backport 'libapt-pkg4.12'" and it restores the state of the machine | 22:59 |
| behelit | Ah. Seems to be some other reference to archive.ubuntu.com | 23:01 |
| donofrio_ | behelit, 10.04? | 23:01 |
| behelit | yeah | 23:02 |
| behelit | donofrio_: it's kind of old | 23:02 |
| behelit | maybe it is not still possible? | 23:03 |
| donofrio_ | behelit, just wondered (I mean I still use 12.04 on myppc hosts fwiw) | 23:03 |
| donofrio_ | behelit, never give up never surrender (I mean google and here is your friend) | 23:04 |
| tgm4883 | behelit: honestly, I'd do a fresh install of 16.04 rather than 10.04 -> 12.04 -> 14.04 -> 16.04 but it should technically still be possible to do it | 23:07 |
| causative | how do I disable "alt" as the key to show the dash? I have tried ccsm setting the "Key to show the Dash, Launcher and Help Overlay" to "Disabled" but "alt" is still showing me the dash... | 23:09 |
| behelit | yeah maybe that is the way to go | 23:10 |
| causative | do I have to reboot? | 23:11 |
| EriC^^ | causative: go to keyboard in settings | 23:11 |
| EriC^^ | shortcuts > key to show hud | 23:11 |
| causative | thanks | 23:12 |

| donofrio_ | nacc I'll rebuilt without dist-upgrade.....figured folks would want to know 'what will break next' but #ubuntu+1 is not a full room like this is (only 100 folks and no-one talking) | 23:36 |
| nacc | donofrio_: "rebuilt withou dist-upgrade"? all 17.10 support goes there, not here, regardless of how popular each channel is | 23:36 |
| donofrio_ | nacc, yes I'm rebuilding right now with just 17.04 give me 15 min to report results of rebuild | 23:37 |
| nacc | donofrio_: oh i see, ok | 23:37 |
| peter12345123 | could someone here help me with an internet connection issue I seem to have only on my ubuntu OS? Based on stack overflow answers I dont think it's an issue with my DNS, so I'm very confused. Much appreciated! | 23:44 |
| glisignoli | Hello, does anyone know how to make a package availabe in a preseed installation environment? | 23:44 |
| nacc | glisignoli: when do you need it in the preseed env? | 23:45 |
| glisignoli | Before I run my late_command | 23:46 |
| nacc | glisignoli: https://www.debian.org/releases/wheezy/example-preseed.txt (there's a similare file for ubuntu on the help page, i think), see the bottom | 23:47 |
| nacc | glisignoli: just put in your late-command 'apt-install ...' | 23:47 |
| nacc | glisignoli: that won't affect your target, though, just the installer env | 23:47 |
| glisignoli | Ok I'll give that a go. Thans! | 23:48 |
| nacc | glisignoli: yw | 23:49 |
