I just now started using linux as a desktop with 17.04 rls. I don't want to get used to unity and then have to learn something else. so my question is, should i install ubuntu-gnome-desktop or gnome-shell? [00:30] It's really up to you, but it sounds like a good idea [00:33] illuminated: If you like and prefer unity - it will still be around - will be community maintained :) [00:33] well, I don't particularly have an opinion. I've only been using ubuntu desktop for about 4 days [00:34] but I did re-enable the workspaces and I like the workspace switcher as opposed to the way I've seen things switch on youtube videos of gnome-shell [00:35] also, I like the lenses of unity [00:37] illuminated: linux is all about choice .

[06:30] My MOK is also enrolled (`mokutil --import` tells me it's already enrolled). [06:31] k_sze_: have you checked the logs? [06:33] ducasse: I see this in my kern.log: API mismatch: the client has the version 384.69, but this kernel module has the version 384.59. Please make sure that this kernel module and all NVIDIA driver components have the same version. [06:33] I don't even know how that's possible. [06:34] a bug, or maybe some component failed to build. i don't know the nvidia drivers well. [06:38] k_sze_: you should probably talk to the ppa maintainers, as 384 is not officially supported by zesty. 375 won't work? [06:41] I always prefer to use cutting edge if it works. :P [06:42] So apparently 384 is still experimental: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [06:42] 381 is considered stable. [06:46] And how do I know 384 is not officially supported by zesty? [06:47] hmm: Error! Module version 0B3F53EFFE091B38635C344 for nvidia_384_uvm.ko is not newer than what is already found in kernel 4.10.0-32-generic (384.69). [06:53] k_sze_: you know it's not supported because it's not in the repos [06:55] It is in the repo [06:56] !info nvidia-384 zesty [06:56] Package nvidia-384 does not exist in zesty [06:56] Oh, you mean it only exists in the ppa. [06:56] yes. [06:58] i'd try purging that ppa and see if 375 works. [07:07] Howdy everyone [07:09] Hi! Just a quick question, does Ubuntu come installed with the killall program?

It's a simple search'n'replace in a text file.... sed -i -e 's/search/replace/g' filename.txt Except the search and replace string are variables, so sed -i -e 's/$search/$replace/g' and an example of the variables can be $search="hello" and $replace="hel~lo". (Hyphenation insertion). I'm guessing my problem is the ~ character? [08:13] No errors, but nothing happens to the file either. [08:15] mr_lou: try using " instead of ' [08:15] Alright [08:16] Progress! Awesome. Thanks ducasse [08:16] mr_lou: ' prevents expansion of variables [08:16] Have some errors though. I'm guess because the variables contains hyphens... like "32-year". [08:17] No. it's the / character. [08:17] I suppose I should put \ infront of those. [08:19] either that or use a different character to seperate needle from haystack. i often use ; [08:21] i.e if neither needle or haystack contain ; you could use search;replace;g [08:22] hello world === jstein_ is now known as jstein [08:23] hello lifeform [08:25] tomreyn, Thanks! Good to know. Didn't know that. [08:25] welcome [08:31] mr_lou: also (you may already be aware of this) if you have alphanumeric characters right behind the variables (e.g. s/$search123/$replaceFoo/g) then variables won't be expanded properly (so use s/${search}123/${replace}Foo/g instead) [08:38] tomreyn, Thanks, didn't know that either, but never ran into it either. I'm a simple guy using simple variablenames. ;-) [09:04] hi can anyone help with this error please: libdbus-1-dev : Depends: libdbus-1-3 (= 1.10.10-1ubuntu1.1) but 1.10.10-1ubuntu1.2 is to be installed [09:04] I'm trying to install a packabe but always get that error...

[09:14] tomreyn: must of missed a version there haha [09:15] does ubuntu still support connecting to NFS Servers? [09:16] I'm getting a broken pipe when mounting an NFS share... [09:20] ... millions of users out there are unable to mount NFS shares... those nfs mount command line options are idiotic [09:21] adding username and password gives an incorrect mount option was specified [09:21] mrec: where did you read that "millions of users out there are unable to mount NFS shares"? [09:21] nfs is still supported and works fine, of course. [09:21] just need to search the error message [09:22] or various nfs mount error messages [09:22] mount -t nfs -o username=foo,password=bar ip:/path /dstpath [09:22] an incorrect mount option was specified [09:23] this is horribly broken by design if it's documented everywhere like that and spits out such an error message [09:23] or you could just accept you made a mistake and move on [09:23] rather than try to justify your mistake with some odd logic that everyone else is suffering [09:24] well dinosaurs are dying out either the documented way works or it should give a meaningful error message [09:24] it's ok to get a command argument wrong, or badly formatted [09:24] everything else is idiotic. [09:24] tone it down [09:24] you're looking silly now [09:24] ikonia: what would be the mistake in my command that justifies such an error message? [09:25] mrec: I don't know the full history of your command, [09:25] I didn't use NFS for 10 years... I don't remember that it was that bad before [09:25] it could be as simple as a white space screwing up the formatting [09:25] mount -t nfs -o username=foo,password=bar ip:/path /dstpath [09:25] no spacing issue, this HAS to work or give a meaningful error [09:25] but it gives " an incorrect mount option was specified" [09:25] ok - so there is an invalid option somehwere in there [09:25] if you check with google it's documented like that everywhere [09:25] just work it through [09:26] at a glance the syntax looks sane [09:26] mrec: maybe the password has some bad char? [09:26] EriC^^: great spot [09:26] then it has to print incorrect password provided instead of an incorrect mount option was specified [09:26] mrec: bash could expand it first [09:27] mount returns with an error 32 ... after this error message [09:27] which in case they would accept the posix standard would be broken pipe [09:27] the guy who wrote this mount tool must have been totally stoned to disregard the standards [09:28] mrec: what help do you want from this channel [09:28] this is getting silly now [09:28] maybe someone knows about that silly mount command [09:28] mrec: you've just been given a good suggestion from EriC^^ [09:28] I suggest you try it and work it through with people willing to help, but please stop ranting [09:29] well I have no idea how to use this and what the real error is [09:29] mrec: ok, so try following the suggestion EriC^^ has made for a starter [09:30] according to the error message username or password might be an invalid option but who knows since it doesn't tell what the error is [09:30] mrec: I won't tell you again - stop [09:30] work the problem through with people [09:30] or be quiet [09:31] well i posted everything I did. [09:32] god...it should be -O instead of -o ... [09:33] -o options, -O optlist ... [09:34] excellent, well done [09:34] no .. I can just strip the -O [09:37] mrec: where did you get the info that username and password are valid options for nfs? they're not in the man page and i've never seen them before. [09:37] ah, quit... [09:37] it looks like a samba mount line [09:39] yes, nfs you just mount as root afaik [09:39] there are auth options for the share [09:55] the error message mrec pasted actually said the error message "an incorrect mount option was specified" [09:56] you don't use those mount options for nfs as you said [09:59] how do I reset to default apt systemd files? i assume I should dpkg-reconf some package, which one ? [10:01] untoreh: not sure what you mean but you can reinstall packages "sudo apt-get install --reinstall package" [10:03] is there a file browser with treeview? [10:04] fedorafan: gui or terminal? [10:04] gui [10:04] spacefm, at least [10:04] thanks I try [10:06] yeah that is nice [10:15] how to install ubuntu minimal using PPPoE? [10:17] penguinfire: by minimal, do you mean mini.iso? or a very small installed size, just basic features? [10:18] mini.iso [10:18] :tomreyn: mini.iso [10:20] penguinfire: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/amd64/apds06.html [10:20] :tomreyn I have tried modules=ppp-udeb kernel parameters. [10:21] penguinfire: the mini.iso is called that sfor a reason. maybe you need to use the server installation iso [10:23] :ducasse It clearly mentioned that it is not supported for netboot installs. [10:25] penguinfire: you never said that's what you wanted. if that's what you want you now know it's not supported. [10:27] I'm trying to compile the icu extension for sqlite. I installed icu-devtools, switched into the dir of the extension and ran gcc. However, it fails because icu is missing a file. Maybe someone can help. Log: https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/~usahC8eokdYQV7M6AS17Q [10:29] :ducasse That's what I have tried first. [10:30] :ducasse Is there any way to add that module manually? [10:31] penguinfire: then try something that is supported? [10:32] :ducasse something? [10:40] having trouble installing brave browser on lubuntu (16.04 i think) [10:41] dreinull: the icu-config warning suggests you should install libicu-dev [10:43] tomreyn, oh, yes, that does away with this error message, but I get another on :( [10:43] but thats probably an error for the sqlite channel or are you well versed in that too? :) [10:45] dreinull: depends on the message you got there. generally, the sqlite channel would be the right place to ask for help building their software. [10:45] (after reading any documentation available and searching the web) [10:45] penguinfire: what are you actually trying to do? what are you doing that fails? [10:46] tomreyn: https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/VHShdxsFwdeRvpdqGt~BIg [10:46] dreinull: right, talk to them (after reading any documentation available and searching the web) [10:47] ok, thank you though!! [10:47] welcome [10:49] :ducasse I want to install Ubuntu using mini.iso CD and PPPoE connection. [10:51] penguinfire: why dont you use the server ISO? [10:51] penguinfire: then why does it matter that netboot is not supported? [10:54] :tomreyn I want to make the installation as minimum as possible because it's USB I'm using. Thanks for not asking why. [10:54] the server install is very light [10:54] use that and remove what you don't need [10:55] it's probably easier than not understanding what you're missing because you don't know/realise why you need it [10:56] penguinfire: +1 on using the server image, it would save you time and hassle. [10:58] :ikonia what would be the installed size of server CD method? [11:00] penguinfire: couple of hundred meg [11:01] by default [11:02] :ikonia No, post installation size of Ubuntu server 16.04 LTS? [11:02] yeah, couple of hundred meg by default [11:05] is it really that small? iirc when i installed this laptop i only selected basic tools and it came in around 1gb [11:06] :ikonia But the iso image shows 825M. [11:06] on server ? [11:06] penguinfire: thats the iso size [11:06] server, yes [11:06] ducasse: I've got a 14.04 install that was 430mb, not sure if 16.04 made a big jump [11:06] but again - just remove what you don't want [11:06] quicker and easier [11:07] :ikonia after the installation? [11:07] yes [11:07] keep in mind what ducasse said [11:07] either way, just remove what you don't want [11:09] penguinfire: you can remove a lot of the server stuff, but none of that takes a lot of space. the difference between ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-server is small, irt size. [11:11] :ikonia thank you [11:11] ducasse is your man here [11:12] okay, thank you ducasse: [11:12] penguinfire: yw [11:15] penguinfire: after the install, do 'apt show ubuntu-server' and look at the 'depends' line for a nice list of the server stuff. things like the iscsi tools you're probably not going to need.

[13:56] linuxlove: 'echo $http_proxy' [13:57] https://pastebin.com/WzZ058nT [13:57] echo $http_proxy [13:57] http://127.0.0.1:42643/ [13:57] how can i unset? [13:58] linuxlove: 'unset http_proxy' to test, and remove it from your shell config [13:59] i dont know where i did config [13:59] where is right way of config file? [14:00] linuxlove: you should. try ~/.bashrc [14:05] what partition type do you use for ssd? [14:06] clarity510: doesn't matter [14:07] clarity510: you generally use gpt for uefi and disks over 2tb, and mbr for legacy or smaller disks [14:14] While in GParted, I have mistakenly formatted /dev/sda1 [14:14] to Fat32 [14:14] I have not restarted my machine. but I think this is EFI. [14:15] I am using http://www.sony-asia.com/support/product/sve15126cv [14:15] I have Ubuntu 16.04 installed. [14:15] From Ubuntu forum, I found Boot-repair might help. [14:29] thebigj: you should be able to recreate it with grub-install and fixing the uuid in fstab [14:30] plus efibootmgr to fix the efi variable [14:31] ducasse: Is grub-install a package? [14:31] ducasse: I am total novice user. [14:31] ducasse: Please guide. [14:31] no, it's part of grub [14:31] ducasse: Any more guidlines you can provide [14:31] ? [14:32] I am unclear how can I use 'grub' for this. [14:32] ducasse, i didnt find in direction that you said [14:34] Hello, not sure if it is ok to ask here. I've setup http auth in Ubuntu 17.04 server, with "auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;" on Nginx. Is it possible for me to view the logs of the remote IP Addresses authenticating? [14:36] thebigj: you can try either reinstalling grub itself (the package) or try boot-repair for an easier way. i'm quite busy and can't guide you right now, sorry. [14:37] linuxlove: if it's not in your user's bash config it is probably set systemwide [14:37] where is wide configuration for bash [14:38] ducasse: I am thanks for your help. I tried the boot-rapair option. Though I chosed the option to deploy the log to pastebin it didn't and showed this option at the end https://dpaste.de/dc87/raw [14:39] ducasse: I want to assure that EFI is restored and I will be able to boot like I was before. [14:39] ducasse: Sorry to annoy you when you are busy. [14:40] linuxlove: try 'sudo rgrep http_proxy /etc' to see which files refer to it [14:41] thebigj: that's ok. can you look and see if there are any files under /boot/efi? [14:41] /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest: export http_proxy="$HTTP_PROXY"; [14:42] ducasse: Output of 'ls -l /boot/efi/' is 'total 0' [14:42] ducasse: I think there are no files in this folder. [14:45] thebigj: is it currently mounted? what does 'sudo mount /boot/efi' say? [14:45] ducasse: mount: can't find /boot/efi/ in /etc/fstab [14:46] These files may contain juicy information such as [14:46]
