| calamari | was helping a friend with ubuntu user last night. they religiously applied updates and had HUNDREDS of old kernels, so applying anything kernel related took over 15 minutes in update-grub. My question is: is there a package that will automatically remove old kernels when, say, there are more than 5? It needs to be automatic or at worst something scriptable | 02:01 |
| neverme | Hi everyone, when the daily apt runs, it is stopping some services and is not starting it again, what should I change in other for those service to be started again once apt daily is done? | 02:02 |
| Bashing-om | calamari: 'sudo apt autoremove' . Use the unattended-upgrades package to regularly run autoremove for you. Edit the autoremove setting in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades from 'false' to 'true' . | 02:04 |
| calamari | Bashing-om: tried that.. they weren't listed in autoremove | 02:05 |
| calamari | maybe that is a recent feature and they need to upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 to get it? | 02:06 |
| Bashing-om | calamari: Then the a) package manager is broke , b) /boot/ is full and no operating head room . in these events one can renove old kernels . | 02:07 |
| calamari | well, I was forced to just manually move the old files to another dir | 02:09 |
| calamari | because to remove the old kernels via package manager would have taken days... weeks? | 02:09 |
| Bashing-om | calamari: Only need the one booting kernel installed, nice to keep one other as a back up . | 02:10 |
| Bashing-om | calamari: Package manager can remove in minutes . | 02:11 |
| calamari | Bashing-om: not in this case. as I said, update-grub was taking at least 15 minutes PER kernel | 02:12 |
| calamari | and then it was even longer after it got past that, maybe about 5 minutes more per kernel | 02:13 |
| Bashing-om | calamari: Yhen the system is in a inconsistent state. http://termbin.com/7o9d . interested in seeing how long it takes autoremove to work ? | 02:15 |

| JustTheDoctor | how would i set a file to have the permissions of -rwxr-xr-x | 02:45 |
| Stanley00 | JustTheDoctor: chmod 755 filename, or chmod u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx filename | 02:48 |
| JustTheDoctor | thank you, | 02:48 |
| JustTheDoctor | I'm still trying to figure out why i can launch the app i compiled from xfce4 desktop ;( | 02:49 |
| Stanley00 | JustTheDoctor: it usually just need execute permission, so chmod +x should work fine too | 02:49 |
| CuChulaind | at what point during login are the bash_completion.d scripts run? | 02:50 |
| JustTheDoctor | i've done chmod 755 and +x on it, | 02:50 |
| JustTheDoctor | it still wont launch xfce doesnt see it as a executeable, it asks me which program to open it with | 02:50 |
| CuChulaind | how can I use this to get a different shell when login completes? | 02:51 |
| Stanley00 | JustTheDoctor: then it simple just can't run by itself, is it a script file? | 02:52 |
| JustTheDoctor | nope, | 02:53 |
| JustTheDoctor | its a exe app compiled from source. | 02:53 |
| JustTheDoctor | if i open a console and type ./appname it runs no problem. | 02:53 |
| Stanley00 | JustTheDoctor: hmm, it's strange, can you run "file ./appname" to make sure it's elf executable file? | 02:56 |
| th0r | JustTheDoctor, try running it in a shell 'sh ./appname' | 02:57 |
| JustTheDoctor | of o do ./appname alone it works | 02:58 |
| th0r | JustTheDoctor, yes, but you want to run it from a shortcut. Edit the shortcut to read 'sh ./appname' | 02:59 |
| th0r | JustTheDoctor, the shortcut doesn't work because the app needs to run in a shell. When you start it from a terminal, you are in a shell | 02:59 |
| snowcatman | hello, in vlc i get permision denied for playing my dvd, can anyone help? | 03:26 |
| David | snowcatman: Try right clicking the dvd drive from your file manager and click properties, there click on the rw permissions checkbox. | 03:28 |
| David | Then relaunch vlc. | 03:29 |
| David | snowcatman: Tell ne if it works! | 03:30 |
| David | Sorry me not ne | 03:30 |
| snowcatman | David, i dont see that option | 03:31 |
| David | snowcatman: Try the clicking on permissions rather than properties. | 03:33 |
| snowcatman | there is no rw and security context is unknown | 03:34 |
| David | Hmmm... You could try ripping an mp4 from the cd. | 03:35 |
| David | What kind of dvd is this? | 03:36 |
| David | Is it drm protected | 03:36 |
| snowcatman | comercial dvd movie for my kids "a dogs purpose" | 03:37 |
| === Al3xG0 is now known as argus | ||
| === argus is now known as Al3xG0 | ||
| snowcatman | just wanting to play the dvd, not rip it. | 03:37 |
| David | Ah... Its probably protected by drm... Try another video playing application (gnome video?) or run vlc as sudo. | 03:38 |
| === Al3xG0 is now known as argusBR | ||
| snowcatman | its telling me that vlc is not suppost to be run as root, does not open vlc | 03:40 |
| David | Did you try gnome video | 03:41 |
| snowcatman | permision denied | 03:42 |
| David | Not as sudo | 03:42 |
| David | ? | 03:43 |
| snowcatman | um, so far nothing is happening | 03:43 |
| snowcatman | in sudo totem i dont get anything | 03:44 |
| David | Gnome video must be loading otherwise relaunch it | 03:45 |
| snowcatman | ok | 03:45 |
| David | From the dash start menu | 03:45 |
| David | (superkey) | 03:46 |
| snowcatman | ok, i deleted what i had in there and added from the dvd drive. i get picture and other langues but no sound | 03:47 |
| snowcatman | David, well its not the main movie, its the do not pirate part of the dvd. not the main part. | 03:50 |
