[00:15] <FoxLove> Oh. Thank you.
[00:15] <krytarik> Sure.
[01:06] <ScriptKiddie_> Hello
[01:07] <ScriptKiddie_> When I open Google Chrome, it spawns a new window outside of my desktop view
[01:08] <oerheks> hold alt + right mouse on the window to drag
[01:19] <jerome-> does anyone know why "/usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check --human-readable" returns "0 packages can be updated." while there are 2 packages to update?
[01:34] <_Zaphod_> i'm runing xenial, and the latest clamd update broke things for me. i need to have it listening on its socket at /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl
[01:35] <_Zaphod_> it hangs and does nothing now.  it seems to use systemd now.  i need a working /etc/clamav/clamd.conf and working systemd config files to allow listening on the socket.
[02:02] <codepython777> is there a way to print dmesg output that is only relevant for the current boot?
[02:15] <_Zaphod_> help??
[02:16] <Bashing-om> codepython777: systemd ? Then ' journalctl -b -0 ' shows messages from the current boot .
[02:17] <codepython777> Bashing-om: I am on ubuntu 16.04.3
[02:18] <codepython777> Bashing-om: It does work it seems. I read /proc/uptime and printed out times > than that in dmesg
[02:20] <_Zaphod_> if i remove and reinstall teh package, i can get the port 3310 working
[02:20] <_Zaphod_> but i cannot get the socket working no matter what I do.
[02:20] <_Zaphod_> for clamav-daemon
[02:24] <Bashing-om> codepython777: dmesg as a log file no longer applies :) It is the journal now .
[02:25] <codepython777> Bashing-om: so dmesg is going to be removed at some point?
[02:26] <Bashing-om> codepython777: See for your self : cat /var/log/dmesg >> (Nothing has been logged yet.) . No longer used .
[02:27] <codepython777> so dmesg is just a wrapper for journalctl?
[02:28] <Bashing-om> codepython777: No . The ring buffer that used to be dmesg writes now to journal . See: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-journalctl-to-view-and-manipulate-systemd-logs .
[02:29] <codepython777> Bashing-om: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25393588/ - This is a different question. I have a USB port on which I've a FTDI device. It gives me errors on boot (line 4), and then after some time attaches and works (line 46). Any ideas on how to debug this?
[02:30] <codepython777> Bashing-om: isnt systemd supposed to be replaced with something else in Ubuntu in the near future? I dont remember - but read something about this sometime back
[02:31] <Bashing-om> codepython777: Give me a tad to look over the file . As to systemd . Nope it is here to stay. Maybe was upstart that you had in mind that systemd replaced ?
[02:31] <codepython777> probably. Thanks
[02:34] <Bashing-om> codepython777: the FTDI device, flash technology ? what shows ' sudo fdisk -lu ' with the device connected ?
[02:35] <codepython777> Bashing-om: that FTDI device is a pixhawk autopilot
[02:36] <Bashing-om> codepython777: All I can surmise is a file system that initially is not picked up by the operting system .
[02:38] <codepython777> Bashing-om: I cant decode those error messages yet
[02:41] <Bashing-om> codepython777: Food for thought . Bug ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1574869 .
[02:42] <codepython777> note that the error numbers are different (-32) vs -110, -62  -- https://paste.ubuntu.com/25393588/
[02:43] <codepython777> not sure what those numbers map to yet
[02:48] <codepython777> It seems there is a timeout of 30 seconds somewhere for this error - after which the device connects, not sure where this timeout is
[02:48] <Bashing-om> codepython777: error -110 : https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/patch/include/linux/usb.h?id=feb26ac31a2a5cb88d86680d9a94916a6343e9e6 .
[02:50] <codepython777> Bashing-om: so an updated kernel might fix this issue?
[02:51] <codepython777> I am on 4.10.0
[02:52] <mitmf> how can i install libusb?
[02:55] <Bashing-om> codepython777: Nother thought is to use a USB3 port for the FTDI device .
[02:55] <codepython777> Bashing-om: I thought it was on a usb 3
[02:55] <codepython777> let me check
[02:58] <codepython777> Bashing-om: seems like that fixed the issue! :)
[03:00] <Bashing-om> codepython777: The system tells all . We just got to learn to listen to what it tells us, huh ?
[03:01] <codepython777> Bashing-om: this device is supposed to work with both 2 and 3 - Indeed I missed that it was connected to 2.
[03:04] <jvelasquez> hi, I'm just trying to compile a deb from source, but,   debuild -b -uc -us, produced an error,  here's the tail end of the output:  https://paste.ubuntu.com/25393737/   any ideas why it failed?
[03:07] <codepython777> Bashing-om: Thanks for the help.
[03:07] <Bashing-om> codepython777: Like hooking up a 6.0 Gbps drive on a sata port that supports 3.0 Gbps . Takes the sytem a bit to adjust .
[03:09] <codepython777> Bashing-om: its amazing, no errors on the usb 3 port!
[03:09] <jvelasquez> ohh. I see.  dh_install is doing what's in the install file, and it's missing what's listed...
[03:10] <Bashing-om> codepython777: :) .. And faster too !
[03:15] <codepython777> Bashing-om: yup :)
[03:15] <user1509375> Need help with vpn. I added a vpn to rdp to my workplace. It worked at first. Then I tried to setup split tunneling. Afterwards vpn no longer works even if I delete profile and recreate.
[03:25] <jvelasquez> Only the include files are missing.  Now why would the include files be missing?

[07:24] <hmmwhatsthisdo> I'm trying to use x11 forwarding on an Ubuntu LTS VM to run wireshark and mininet - I've gotten xterm to work using Xming on my local machine, but for some reason when running wireshark I get "failed to get the current screen resources"
[07:25] <hmmwhatsthisdo> can someone think of some reason why xterm would work but wireshark wouldn't?
[07:28] <Aginor> hmmwhatsthisdo: even if you could get it to work it would be rather unusable with the packets scrolling past
[07:29] <Aginor> use tshark instead
[07:34] <hmmwhatsthisdo> Aginor: relatively low-traffic (mininet VM)
[07:34] <hmmwhatsthisdo> also I have to screencap wireshark for this networking class (ugh)
[07:34] <Aginor> hmmwhatsthisdo: capture on the remote machine, write to a file, copty the file, open the file locally
[07:35] <Aginor> tshark -i <interface> -w myfile.pcap
[07:35] <hmmwhatsthisdo> this is true
[07:35] <hmmwhatsthisdo> there's no TUI frontend for tshark is there?
[07:35] <Aginor> scp remote:~/myfile.pcap .
[07:36] <Aginor> hmmwhatsthisdo: I don't see how that would be useful tbh
[07:36] <Aginor> there's too much information to display
[07:36] <Aginor> but tshark generally fills that niche
[07:36] <hmmwhatsthisdo> mainly for live capture
[07:37] <Aginor> no, it can do post-capture analysis too
[07:45] <yellabs-r2> hello all
[07:47] <yellabs-r2> is there a reason why nodejs is not in ubuntu software center ?
[07:49] <ducasse> yellabs-r2: use synaptic instead or just install from a terminal
[07:50] <yellabs-r2> its not in the repositories , so the question was why ?
[07:50] <ducasse> !info nodejs
[07:50] <yellabs-r2> ah, its in universe ..
[07:54] <yellabs-r2> thanks ducasse, i found it
[07:55] <yellabs-r2> sudo apt-cache search nodejs
[07:55] <yellabs-r2> it does not show up in software center , bu hee, i found it so that cool ..
[08:11] <qswz> sysctl is like systemctl command?
[08:12] <qswz> well no
[08:12] <qswz> weird
[08:13] <ducasse> qswz: different things, see the man pages
[08:15] <qswz> yea thx, confusing tho
[09:03] <hmmwhatsthisdo> Aginor: Ended up getting wireshark working - apparently it might be a Qt bug?
[09:04] <hmmwhatsthisdo> solution was just to install wireshark-gtk and call it a day
[09:17] <Aginor> hmmwhatsthisdo: good to hear you got it sorted :)
[09:18] <hmmwhatsthisdo> yeah - at least, wireshark-gtk didn't throw the error
[09:18] <hmmwhatsthisdo> seems surprisingly undocumented for a use case like that
[09:20] <Aginor> X-forwarding is probably not their primary use-case
[09:20] <Aginor> I suspect they'd have told you the same as me :)
[09:23] <hmmwhatsthisdo> well, I meant Qt - not just wireshark
[09:23] <hmmwhatsthisdo> there was like, 1 bug on it?
[09:27] <Aginor> it's probably not a common use-case for them either
[09:27] <Aginor> people seem to be getting worse at supporting x-forwarding nowadays
[09:27] <arahael> I'm pleased if people even support reply-to.
[09:28] <Aginor> arahael: :D

[12:33] <fedorafan> ducasse yes I know but I dont search an ide I wanted to know what you recommend and now I try pycharm
[12:35] <ducasse> fedorafan: this is the wrong place to recommend commercial products or services, try ##python
[12:38] <Fozx71> Hello everyone
[12:39] <fedorafan> ducasse yes you tried to help me thanks and this python channel was my next idea to try I saw some free ideas on ubuntu software but probably this one is nice

[12:45] <ducasse> Fozx71: which ubuntu version is this?
[12:46] <Fozx71> 16.04 x64 Desktop
[12:46] <ioria> Fozx71,  it's ok... i thought it was resolved ...  you probably need to manually install that pkg from the debian  repo
[12:46] <ducasse> Fozx71: https://askubuntu.com/questions/766491/failure-to-download-extra-data-files-with-ttf-mscorefonts-installer-on-ubuntu
[12:48] <arahael> Note, as a general rule: Don't mix debian and ubuntu packages.  That particular package must have been fine, in that particular situation, though.
[12:50] <Fozx71> Thank you for your help all.

[14:06] <a64> wudo_honour, i think there is better solution =p
[14:09] <wudo_honour> a64   may be blocked by some running  program
[14:09] <wudo_honour> which wait for be killed .
[14:10] <a64> how to find out?
[14:12] <wudo_honour> by seeing the shutdown log , such as "journalctl -xe" , or something like that
[14:16] <a64> wudo_honour, thanks a lot mate =D
[14:21] <thyriaen>  i deleted my /home/thyriaen/Documents folder and when i recreate it it does not get a shortcut in the filebrowser like it used to nor does it get this special documents folder icon - how can i create that again ? :)
[14:25] <wudo_honour> thyriaen   you can find out the way by google , or you can try use the "ln" command to make desktop  shortcut.

[14:50] <jost> Hi! Recently, my home partition ran full
[14:51] <jost> Now, ecryptfs unmounts every half hour or so
[14:51] <jost> running `ecryptfs-mount-private` fixes that, but only for some time... then it unmounts again. Does someone know how to fix that?
[14:51] <BluesKaj> Dreaman, oh, optimus, install bumblebee http://www.webupd8.org/2016/08/how-to-install-and-configure-bumblebee.html
[14:53] <Dreaman> old
[14:57] <BluesKaj> well, search for yourself then, learning how to search is half the battle in Linux, dreamcat4
[15:08] <tomreyn> jost: check /var/log/syslog and output of dmesg -T for why it gets unmounted.
[15:09] <jost> tomreyn: check here for an excerpt of my /var/log/syslog for a time frame where it happened: https://askubuntu.com/questions/950066/ecryptfs-unmounts-ever-half-hour-or-so-after-home-partition-ran-full
[15:10] <jost> there is no entry in dmesg -T since reboot (except connecting the ethernet cable)
[15:11] <tomreyn> okay there's nothing there.
[15:11] <tomreyn> maybe the disk is falling apart, check s.m.a.r.t. data / run a self test
[15:12] <tomreyn> but actually you should see that in syslog /& dmesg then
[15:13] <tomreyn> maybe do an offline fsck just to be sure
[15:19] <jost> tomreyn: Yes, though about the disk falling apart too, but the partitions / and others do not have these problems, and they are on the same disk... also, my machine checks s.m.a.r.t. on boot, and it does not tell me anything
[15:22] <emma> Hey I was previously using a PIA vpn.  But it expired. Still the connections were showing up in network manager. Now I got a new account/password with PIA and installed it, but network manager hasn't changed.
[15:22] <emma> Is there a way to uninstall the old vpn stuff and start over fresh or properly update it so that it works?
[15:35] <BluesKaj> emma,purge your old network-manager-vpn then reinstall it and run PIA
[15:44] <emma> BluesKaj: thanks that worked.
[15:45] <BluesKaj> emma, yeah, I've done the same :-)
[15:45] <emma> BluesKaj: one thing I noticed is that the vpn works/looks different now.
[15:45] <emma> BluesKaj: before it would put all those potential PIA access points in the network manager list
[15:45] <emma> now there is a green square.
[15:46] <emma> is that what you see too?
[15:47] <BluesKaj> emma, ok , yes I did for a while, think next reboot should restore the little green man icon
[15:47] <emma> BluesKaj: well I may just have an older version of kubuntu
[15:49] <BluesKaj> I've moved from network manager to managing my ethernet with the network interfaces file so i do my PIA connection via the console now, emma
[15:49] <emi71> Hello. I've a problem with ubuntu 16.04. I can't install scanner function for my Canon Pixma MG5650 . What is the correct procedure? Apparently this model is not supported?
[15:51] <emi71> I've tried with scangear but don't work....
[15:56] <emma> BluesKaj:  You're hardcore.
[15:57] <BluesKaj> emi71, have you tried running cups https://askubuntu.com/questions/574420/cups-service-not-working-cant-find-any-logs
[15:59] <BluesKaj> emma, I have too much time on my hands, so I try to solve non existing problems by creating new challenges, if that makes any sense :-)
[16:00] <emma> it makes total sense. I wasn't being sarcastic. I wish I had your skills. :)
[16:01] <BluesKaj> i do a lot of googling for tutorials
[16:02] <emma> Sometimes (but not always) I can figure something out, but I don't push the limits of my systems often enough to learn stuff consistently. So I also forget most things.
[16:03] <emma> It's like here with IRC -- I ban people so rarely that every single time I do need to ban someone I have to research how to do that again.
[16:04] <BluesKaj> I'm not a coder , just an old guy who's wrtten a few scripts with the help of others who share their skills on google :-)
[16:16] <emi71> BluesKaj, I've understand the problem. I've installed scangear 3.20 but the correct version is scangear 3.00. now I try to install it but the system answer: you must uninstall the previuous version (3.20). How can I do it?
[16:17] <emi71> the installer was referred to sudo ./install.sh
[16:17] <BluesKaj> emi71,how did you install it?
[16:17] <emi71> BluesKaj sudo ./install.sh
[16:21] <johnfg> hi guys
[16:22] <johnfg> Do nfs shares need to be in/on /srv for ubuntu?  Is that hard-coded somewhere?
[16:23] <saulus> Hi, I wonder where deja-dup-preferences are stored. I have reinstalled my system and the old backup still at hand. Where can I look?
[16:25] <emi71> BluesKaj I've solved, thanks. It was simple procedute by manual. thanks the same!
[16:27] <BluesKaj> emi71, ./install.sh --uninstall , no gurantees this wiill work correctly if you installed other .sh apps
[16:28] <saulus> it looks like my condif is in dconf.  I have installed dconf-editor. How can I select the dconf of my backup?
[17:00] <eater9> Hi, I have a pretty new install of 16.04 on a laptop and when I resume from suspend, certain things don't work for the first couple of minutes.

[17:06] <penguinfire> I have compiled kernel and used previous kernel config. It's too slow and took long time to boot.
[17:07] <penguinfire> Why
[17:07] <ikonia> your kernel, your problem
[17:07] <ikonia> no idea why you felt the need to build your own kernel
[17:07] <ikonia> more so when you're using the config from the official kernel
[17:08] <capella> "because it's there!" :)
[17:30] <penguinfire> Hey

[17:46] <DJones> penguinfire: There isn't a "best" app for anything. It all depends on your own needs, personally I'd suggest irssi whichis command line based, but maybe hexchat if you need a gui
[17:47] <oerheks> cortexman, or do a security bug report, if this is related to ubuntu
[17:47] <DJones> penguinfire: Best to check out the links in ducasse's/ubottu's links
[17:49] <penguinfire> DJones: I'm comfortable with irssi but asked for info
[17:49] <ducasse> penguinfire: to find the 'best' one, look at the list in ubottu's link and try some of them. we can't tell you what you need. i like weechat, but you might hate it.
[17:52] <penguinfire> found one irssi
[18:11] <religiono> hi
[18:11] <religiono> how to apt install pkg without confirmation, just yes. to all
[18:12] <ducasse> religiono: apt install -y, be careful
[18:14] <oerheks> sometimes -f will help too
[18:15] <religiono> why be careful
[18:16] <oerheks> you might accept a license that brings you trouble.
[18:17] <ducasse> religiono: if an already installed package conflicts, it will be removed without prompting
[18:17] <oerheks> oh yeah, removing half or complete desktop :-D
[18:17] <blackbird1> !paste
[18:18] <blackbird1> Hi, I get errors when I do: sudo apt -f upgrade ==> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25399131/
[18:20] <ducasse> blackbird1: is LD_LIBRARY_PATH set?
[18:21] <decci> I have GPU based system. I can see the GPU matrix using nvidia-smi am running nvidia-docker daemon on that system. Now I want to push GPU metrics to monitoring tool like prometheus or collectd
[18:21] <decci> Any idea?
[18:23] <blackbird1> ducasse: What's that mean ?
[18:24] <clarity510> How do I reconfigure the display of Ubuntu 16.04 via commandline
[18:24] <clarity510> I’m not sure if it uses xorg or not
[18:24] <clarity510> I installed a driver that f’d up the display
[18:24] <ducasse> blackbird1: what does 'echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH' say?
[18:25] <blackbird1> ducasse: /lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/home/mayar/MarilouV5/binu64:/usr/local/lib
[18:25] <ducasse> clarity510: it uses xorg, yes. how depends on exactly what you want to configure.
[18:25] <clarity510> should xserver-xorg be installed?
[18:25] <ducasse> blackbird1: by default that should be empty, any idea why you've set it?
[18:26] <clarity510> I tried X -configure, but it bombs out
[18:26] <clarity510> I also tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but that said it wasn’t installed
[18:27] <ducasse> clarity510: which driver did you install?
[18:27] <clarity510> nvidia cuda
[18:27] <clarity510> for ubuntu 16.04
[18:27] <clarity510> it totally killed it
[18:27] <karab44> hello
[18:27] <karab44> I can't create new file anywhere
[18:27] <clarity510> I’m debating about doing “apt-get install xserver-xorg”, but I want to make sure I’m not installing something that’s not installed by default
[18:28] <karab44> there is no RMB context option for this
[18:28] <karab44> there's only new folder but there's no new file
[18:29] <blackbird1> ducasse: I think for a virtualenv, but I remember that I delete it !
[18:29] <ducasse> clarity510: which flavor is this - desktop, server, kubuntu etc?
[18:29] <blackbird1> ducasse: must I unset it ?
[18:29] <ducasse> blackbird1: yes, try that
[18:29] <clarity510> desktop
[18:30] <ducasse> clarity510: did it work before installing  those drivers? also where did you get them?
[18:31] <karab44> LOL
[18:31] <clarity510> I got them from nvidia’s site, and it worked before I installed them
[18:31] <karab44> A bug
[18:31] <ducasse> clarity510: that's guaranteed to break
[18:31] <clarity510> why?
[18:32] <karab44> good I can though shutdown system
[18:32] <karab44> Ubuntu is very old and mature OS. Why it's still so buggy?
[18:32] <ducasse> clarity510: this isn't windows :) ubuntu provides the proprietary nvidia drivers properly packaged
[18:32] <clarity510> yeah
[18:32] <clarity510> fair enough
[18:32] <slyrobot> I have a Kubuntu Installation. 17.04. There seems to be a problem with my session. As soon as the PC locks itself it displays a message "The Screen Locker is broken anf unlocking is not possible anymore. To unlock press Ctrl + Alt + F2. I have done this to get my session back but this is occuring almost every single time. Is there a fix for this ?
[18:33] <blackbird1> ducasse: still same error !
[18:33] <blackbird1> echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH show nothing

[18:38] <ioria> blackbird1, can you show  /etc/ld.so.conf.d/x86_64-linux-gnu.conf   ?
[18:39] <blackbird1> ioria: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25399312/

[18:42] <blackbird1> ioria: sorry,  I forget
[18:42] <penguinfire> how to check glib verion?
[18:43] <ducasse> blackbird1: which ubuntu is this?
[18:43] <penguinfire> 14.04
[18:44] <ducasse> penguinfire: that was directed at someone else
[18:44] <penguinfire> oh sorry
[18:44] <penguinfire> :ducasse sorry
[18:45] <penguinfire> :ducasse can you help me?
[18:47] <clarity510> so.. do I have to reinstall, or is there a way I can repair?
[18:47] <blackbird1> ducasse: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
[18:48] <slyrobot> Anyone ?
[18:49] <blackbird1> slyrobot: Everyone :)
[18:51] <emi71> hello. I've a problem with Ubuntu 16.04. Bluetooth headset: vendor "HUHD" model hw-390m. The USB/bluetooth adapter isn't recognized. command "lsusb" recognize vendor:ID numbers but don't work. someone can help me?
[18:51] <ducasse> clarity510: easiest might be to reinstall, i'm not that familiar with those drivers. there might be an uninstall script.
[18:51] <clarity510> there isn’t :-(
[18:51] <clarity510> I tried some things online, and now it’s completely frozen
[18:52] <clarity510> :-(
[18:53] <clarity510> There’s no repair option?
[18:53] <clarity510> I don’t want to lose my files
[18:53] <ducasse> clarity510: as said, easiest is probably a reinstall, rather than spending the time fixing it
[18:54] <ducasse> clarity510: backup your data, restore after
[18:54] <SummerRain> How can i make sure another user in my ubuntu laptop wont ruin my security ?

[18:54] <bielski> @emi71: have you tried to reinstall bluez? I discovered recently that out-of-the-box some packages were not installed and blueberry was not fully functional
[18:55] <tgm4883> Don't give them admin access
[18:56] <emi71> bielski: bluez? I'm not expert, how can I reinstall it?
[18:56] <bielski> @emi71 `apt install bluez` or sth similar
[18:57] <bielski> @emi71 as a root
[18:57] <ducasse> slyrobot: have you tried #kubuntu?
[18:57] <slyrobot> ducasse: Not yet.
[18:59] <ducasse> slyrobot: probably better place to try than here
[18:59] <slyrobot> ducasse: Thanks.
[19:02] <blackbird1> Guys that error make me crazy
[19:02] <blackbird1> I can't do anyyhing with apt !
[19:03] <emi71> bielski I think the trouble is in usb not in bluetooth. Only the USB adapter is not recognized
[19:04] <Splithorizon> anyone know how to force a static ip from command line?
[19:05] <warri0rr> https://www.garron.me/en/bits/ip-addr-add-address-linux.html
[19:06] <ducasse> blackbird1: 'sudo -i', then check the variable as root
[19:07] <blackbird1> ducasse: As root it contains "/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib"
[19:08] <ducasse> blackbird1: clear it, then try apt. it must be set for root as well somewhere.
[19:08] <emi71> bielski: Bus 001 Device 007: ID 7545:0951 (no device description, and the result is that usb device don't work)
[19:10] <blackbird1> ducasse: unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH doesn't work. It must be cleared from environement files too ?
[19:11] <ducasse> blackbird1: doesn't work? you can't unset it?
[19:11] <tokam> Hallo
[19:14] <blackbird1> ducasse: As root, it works.
[19:14] <ducasse> blackbird1: so it's set somewhere in the systemwide environment
[19:16] <blackbird1> ducasse: Yes, thanks... Updrading is in progress...
[19:23] <emi71> hello. I've a problem with Ubuntu 16.04. Bluetooth headset: vendor "HUHD" model hw-390m. The USB/bluetooth adapter isn't recognized. command "lsusb" recognize vendor:ID numbers but don't work. someone can help me?
[19:24] <emi71> lsusb command result: Bus 001 Device 007: ID 7545:0951 (no device description, and the fact is that usb device don't work)
[19:33] <ducasse> emi71: the bluetooth adapter you have might be unsupported
[19:34] <bielski> @emi71 yep, as said, its sth else then I was guessing, seems like driver missing
[19:36] <emi71> ducasse thanks. I'm a beginner, excuse me, simply a question. why in windows a lot of device are recognized and in ubuntu sometimes is very difficult? I mean, "universal" drivers for usb, is common in windows. in ubuntu each device have different driver.....what is the reason?
[19:37] <jer> i've suddenly lost my sound when i muted, and unmuting doesn't bring it back. alsamixer shows the channel isn't muted, and if i do mute it using amixer it still has no volume. so unmuted, volume at any level from 0 to 100 i get no sound, but i do see the music that's playing show levels like it's outputting stuff and pactl list short sinks shows card 1 is running (which is the card i should be hearing stuff
[19:38] <jer> out of)
[19:38] <jer> any ideas what i can try to diagnose?
[19:38] <tomreyn> emi71: linux also has a generic driver for the usb bus. but not for specific devices (such also does not exist for windows). you need specific drivers for specific devices. in the end what matters is whether the company producing the hardware decides to support it on linux or not, or whether they at least provide sufficient information so someone else can write a driver.
[19:39] <tomreyn> emi71: it's the same with devices supprted / not supported on windows or other OSs (just windows still has the largest market share so they usually write drivers for it, not always for linux)
[19:40] <ducasse> emi71: in my experience, linux supports an amazing amount of hardware. however, it's just not possible to create drivers for every piece of cheap, crappy chinese hardware out there.
[19:40] <tomreyn> that's another way to put it ;)
[19:42] <ducasse> there's also many older devices that are still supported by linux that aren't supported by later windows versions.
[19:42] <tomreyn> !sound | jer
[19:43] <ducasse> jer: you might want to try pasystray to check everything is set up correctly
[19:43] <emi71> tomreyn thanks a lot for your explanation. very interesting. but I mean a different concept. if I use usb storage pens by 40 vendors in Windows, no troubles. in linux if I change a vendor, is always my great risk :) also if the device purpose is the same :)
[19:45] <emi71> ducasse thanks. read my last consideration :)
[19:45] <jer> ducasse, it says it's muted but i can't seem to unmute it =/
[19:45] <jer> ah nm pavucontrol let me unmute it manually
[19:45] <jer> something screwed with my mute button apparently, thanks
[19:45] <tomreyn> emi71: i have not had such issues with usb storage in ages. there are generic mass storage drivers for linux as there are for other OS's.
[19:47] <emi71> tomreyn ok, maybe for mass storage, not for other type of devices. however thanks for your clear explanation :)
[19:48] <tomreyn> emi71: welcome. :)
[19:48] <ducasse> emi71: 'other types of devices' generally need drivers :)
[19:49] <emi71> ducasse I think is only a problem of vendor market :) I hope in the future the situation will be better. :)
[19:51] <emi71> It is really a pity. Linux is fantastic OS, in my opinion.
[19:56] <ducasse> emi71: before you purchase, ask about linux support to show the vendor there is a demand.
[19:57] <emi71> ducasse thanks I know :) simply I had this headset "recycled" from another PC. :) no purchase now :)
[20:14] <LebedevRI> hi. trusty lts question :( is anyone aware of some ppa that contains newer version of lftp? the normal 4.4.13-1 version appears to be bugged
[20:17] <ducasse> LebedevRI: did you search launchpad?
[20:17] <LebedevRI> (i use debian, so i'm not really familiar with ubuntu) there is no backport, that i checked
[20:20] <ducasse> LebedevRI: if there's a bug, file a bug report to get it fixed. if you want a ppa i suggest searching launchpad.
[20:30] <FRWB> how could i reload /run/network/ifstate after editing it?
[20:31] <warri0rr> Why are you editing it in the first place?

[20:43] <hackal> Hi, I have an executable which is looping over some arrays and then exits, is it possible to wrap the executable in a script which will rerun the executable on exit?
[20:44] <warri0rr> hackal: Yes it's possible
[20:47] <hackal> Please could you point me to the right direction, what should I look for to do that?
[20:47] <hackal> I can do simple stuff with bash
[20:47] <Al3xG0> iconv -t UTF-8 tudo > saida
[20:48] <warri0rr> check out bash documentation. You have to wrap your executable in a while loop
[20:48] <warri0rr> while true; do ... done
[20:50] <modles> hey all
[20:50] <seven-eleven> does ubuntu has this package? > llvm-rs-cc is missing
[20:50] <modles> when setting up a l2tp vpn server is it possible to make a vpn user which can multiple different machines to use at once?
[20:51] <modles> basically want to setup a VPN for a bunch of raspberry pi's and dont want to have to create creds for all of them
[20:51] <modles> want to use the same login/password for each
[20:51] <warri0rr> yes you can use one public/private keypair for all of them I guess
[20:51] <warri0rr> or use usr/pw auth
[20:52] <warri0rr> or use a static key
[20:52] <modles> at the moment, when one logs in, the other is kicked out
[20:52] <ducasse> seven-eleven: not that i can see, which ubuntu version?
[20:52] <warri0rr> wait are all of them connected?
[20:53] <modles> i connect number 1, all good. connect number 2, number 1 is kicked off
[20:53] <seven-eleven> DISTRIB_RELEASE=16.04
[20:53] <seven-eleven>  @ ducasse
[20:53] <modles> i have uniqueids=np in my ipsec.conf
[20:53] <ducasse> !info llvm-rs-cc xenial
[20:53] <modles> uniqueids=no
[20:53] <ducasse> ^^ seven-eleven
[20:53] <warri0rr> ah well.. I cannot help you on that. I thought that was openvpn.
[20:54] <modles> yeah cant use open vpn unfortuantly
[20:54] <modles> need iOS suppor
[20:54] <seven-eleven> ducasse, but nvm i think this has to be installed a different way through another build system called gradle
[20:54] <modles> tt
[20:54] <warri0rr> ^^
[21:36] <dsuch> Hello, I have a DEB repository of my own with a package in version 1.0. I also added v1.1 for a moment and installed it locally through apt-get update/install. Then I reverted it in the repo to 1.0, followed by a local apt-get update/purge and apt-cache clean. Yet apt-cache policy will still show both 1.0 and 1.1 so when I now attempt to apt-get install package, it tries to get 1.1 which is no longer there.
[21:36] <dsuch> I wonder where apt-cache stores its database on disk - there is nothing really standing out in /var/cache? Thanks.
[22:17] <black_13> how do you download the deps for a package
[22:21] <zamanf> I have a problem with ubuntu and android. when I plug my cell phone in, it doesn't get recongised
[22:24] <tomreyn> zamanf: run "dmesg -T" and see what was detected
[22:26] <tomreyn> black_13: this happens automatically when you install a package
[22:26] <zamanf> tomreyn, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25401681/
[22:26] <black_13> i know i only want the library deps
[22:27] <black_13> i want to build the source
[22:27] <black_13> and step through it there is a feature in qt program that i want to understand
[22:29] <tomreyn> zamanf: which ubuntu release is this? all up to date?
[22:29] <momomo> i have removed linux-heards-4.4.0.93 and installed .63 ... i have rebooted .. when i do uname -r i still get 93 ... even though 93 is no longer installed ..  has something gone wrong?
[22:30] <zamanf> tomreyn, Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
[22:31] <The_Dv8or> heyheyhey
[22:32] <The_Dv8or> hey sub
[22:33] <The_Dv8or> anyone around that can help me with what Im thinking is a simple port issue
[22:34] <tomreyn> zamanf: install all pending upgrades then. 16.04.3 is current.
[22:34] <zamanf> how?
[22:35] <tomreyn> zamanf: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[22:36] <tomreyn> zamanf: in fact you should normally receive updates automatically unless you explicitly disabled it.
[22:36] <The_Dv8or> guess Ill just ask... got Ubuntu 17.04 installed with GUI.... installed postfix and sendmail.... ports dont seem to be open.... firewalls seem disabled or inactive... do I need to enable firewall like ufw, or do disabled firewalls mean everything is open, like in Winders?
[22:36] <tomreyn> zamanf: ... or lack internet access
[22:37] <tomreyn> black_13: apt-get build-dep
[22:38] <tomreyn> black_13: see "man 8 apt-get" for more info.
[22:38] <black_13> thanks
[22:38] <tomreyn> momomo: do you mean linux-*headers*?
[22:40] <tomreyn> momomo: headers is source code needed to beuild kernel modules. if you are trying to change what 'uname' reports (the verison of the current linux kernel) you would need to add another  linux-*image* package and boot into that
[22:41] <momomo> tomreyn: is it possible i have upgraded from the initial one installed?
[22:41] <tomreyn> The_Dv8or: disabled firewall means there are no restrictions.
[22:41] <momomo> can that be seen somehow, and can i restore to the the install version?
[22:43] <zamanf> tomreyn, I finished installing the last updates. no results either
[22:43] <tomreyn> momomo: what are you trying to achieve overall, which ubuntu version (lsb_release -sd) and which kernel version (cat /proc/version) do you run currently?
[22:43] <tomreyn> !paste | momomo
[22:46] <tomreyn> zamanf: in just 8 minutes? you must have either a very fast internet connection and fast storage or something went wrong. were there any errors or warnings reported? what does "lsb_release -sd" report now?
[22:46] <zamanf> 100mbps on ssd tomreyn
[22:46] <zamanf> Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
[22:47] <tomreyn> zamanf: okay, nice, so reboot and try again (you'll be running a newer kernel image)
[22:47] <zamanf> ok... let's see
[22:49] <tomreyn> zamanf: this is the bug report i was looking at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1565292
[22:50] <zamanf> ok for some reason it doesn't show up
[22:51] <tomreyn> zamanf: you mean the android device is still not detected?
[22:51] <zamanf> correct
[22:51] <zamanf> still not detected
[22:52] <tomreyn> zamanf: does "dmesg -T" look different now? or does it print the very same errors still?
[22:52] <tomreyn> zamanf: actually the bug i pointed to is just about boot delays due to undetectable usb devices.
[22:53] <zamanf> I guess the errors went away in dmesg
[22:54] <tomreyn> zamanf: can you show the output (be sure to remove the serial #)
[22:54] <tomreyn> !paste | zamanf
[22:54] <zamanf> dmesg -T |grep usb ?
[22:55] <tomreyn> zamanf: dmesg -T | grep ' usb ' | grep -v 'SerialNumber' | pastebinit
[22:56] <zamanf> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25402007/
[22:58] <tomreyn> zamanf: which brand is your mobile phone (?) by?
[22:58] <zamanf> samsung A3 2017
[22:58] <tomreyn> zamanf: hmm that's not listed there
[22:59] <zamanf> not in lsusb either
[22:59] <clarity510> yo
[22:59] <tomreyn> zamanf: try re-plugging it and check dmesg -T again. also try different USB ports and - if you have more than one - different usb cables.
[22:59] <clarity510> I had an issue with the nvidia cuda driver. I fixed it by reinstalling
[22:59] <clarity510> :-(
[23:00] <zamanf> ok
[23:02] <zamanf> tomreyn, tried all usb ports, even those for the mouse/keyboard and it didnt show up
[23:02] <tomreyn> zamanf: also make sure the phone is set to use USB for MTP mode "transfer media files"
[23:03] <tomreyn> you can also try changing those modes and see whether this results in better detection on "dmesg -T"
[23:03] <tomreyn> though i guess it's probably the cable then
[23:04] <zamanf> strange, cause the cable works fine
[23:05] <zamanf> the MTP is enabled through the developer options in settings
[23:05] <tomreyn> how do you tell?
[23:05] <zamanf> tomreyn, I can charge the phone without issues
[23:05] <duckgoose> hello!
[23:05] <The_Dv8or> yo
[23:06] <duckgoose> I'm trying to run a nodejs script but it closes when I end the SSH session
[23:06] <duckgoose> using nohup
[23:06] <tomreyn> zamanf: okay, but this is not the same, it uses different wires to charge than for data transfers.
[23:07] <duckgoose> nohup nodejs main.js &
[23:07] <duckgoose> this is correct isn't it
[23:13] <clarity510> Why does the backup software take so long?
[23:13] <clarity510> I'm not complaining
[23:13] <clarity510> I'm just curious
[23:13] <clarity510> I'd think it'd be the same as an cp -r /home/me /backups
[23:14] <tomreyn> depends on the backup software you use, the source and target storage media and the transfer link speed.
[23:14] <clarity510> It's the one that comes with Ubuntu
[23:15] <clarity510> is there a better one?
[23:15] <clarity510> I'd like to take snapshots, and store them somewhere
[23:15] <tomreyn> duplicity is fine
[23:15] <tomreyn> or duply
[23:15] <tomreyn> it can do incremental remote encrypted backups.

[23:31] <jbase> Hello all! I'm trying to run 6 GPUs on a mining rig, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. It boots fine and works with 5 GPUs, but with 6 GPUs it enters GRUB and after GRUB it hangs almost instantly (no running text at all). I tried different cards for the 6th card and I noticed this: if font in GRUB is small (like 80 columns text), it will boot fine. If font in GRUB is large (like 40 columns DOS-style), it will
[23:31] <jbase> hang. I'm booting from a USB stick. I have a feeling it has something to do with UEFI mode (I normally boot in non-UEFI). Is there any way to force GRUB into this "80-column" mode which works for me? What's it all about? any ideas? thanks.
[23:45] <buggaboosanchez> I want to have my pointer look like is see in youtube videos. Is there any way to do that?  I run Ubuntu 16.04 and the way the cursor is in the videos it has a semi transparent , brightly colored (like yellow or green) halo around the pointer. The halo is maybe the size of a quarter and the white arrow cursor (regurlar cursor) can be seen in the middle of the halo.  How do I get the halo around my cursor like that?
[23:46] <buggaboosanchez> Let me see if I can find an example
