[00:20] and back [00:30] Hey C_minus how did putting a new desktop onto ubuntu work out? === brainwash_ is now known as brainwash [02:37] Hellooo [02:43] Go to bed. [02:59] i'm using ubuntu 16.04.3, i have some icons stuck into my unity louncher, i have uninstalled the app but still it's two icons are there, how do i get rid of them? [03:03] right click remove? [03:04] or... [03:05] maybe .local/share/applications/ and remove the application [03:05] good ol rm [03:07] ri6r application is uninstalled already [03:08] only icons are stuck in unity louncher [03:11] ri6r, i installed flatpak and then installed linphone from flatpak, then i ran linphone and added it into favorates, as soon as i added that in favorates it created another icon in unity louncher for linphone, and after i rebooted it was not in favorates anymore and i added it again, so it created another (3rd) icon of linphone in louncher, after realizing that behaviour i uninstalled linphone from flatpak, but only one icon was [03:12] now i have two icons of linphone and there is no actual linphone [03:14] i even tried to uninstall flatpak, and rebooted, and also tried unity --reset and unity --reset-icons and rebooted, but they are stuck there [03:22] ExpertNoob: did you check that directory for duplicates of the icon name? [03:26] ri6r, i don't see that .local folder [03:26] i see bin, boot, cdrom, dev, etc, home, lib ... [03:27] ah, cd /home/username [03:27] then ls -la [03:28] it should be a hidden directory in your /home/username dir. [03:29] ri6r, haha ok i did that, there was one file linphone. now i still see two icons in louncher, but now one of them got bigger [03:37] Apache failed to restart automatically on restart. Here is the systemctl status: https://pastebin.com/E6htAji1 [03:37] What can be the solution? [03:46] I'm trying to install the most recent version of eclipse (just got done downloading) from this reference: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/01/how-to-install-the-latest-eclipse-in-ubuntu-16-04-15-10/ <-- But there is no "eclipse-inst" (step 3) that I can find in my decompressed directory. [03:46] Did something change? If so, then how can I install it without instruction? [03:47] I'm sorry I'll have to do this later - the place I'm at is closing like right now and I have to leave here [03:47] sorry [03:53] Apache failed to restart automatically on restart.

However I keep running into disk full errors from various programs. apt-get upgrade, apt-get autoremove, apt-get install, apt-get -f install show disk full and sometimes resulting dependency error. git pull also shows a disk full error message. Any idea what could be causing these errors even though the disk has 1.6 [05:55] GB free space. I have rebooted the server twice already, still the same issues. [05:55] ubuntu 16.04 LTS Ben64 [05:56] ubernets, join #ubuntu-server [05:56] ok [05:56] ubernets: pastebin the output of 'df -h' [05:57] /dev/xvda1 ext4 7.8G 6.0G 1.5G 81% / [05:57] that's not a pastebin [05:58] pastebin the whole command and output [05:58] http://paste.ubuntu.com/25538619/ [06:00] ubernets: ok, and do an apt thing to get the error to show up [06:02] THis was the last apt-get upgrade http://paste.ubuntu.com/25538626/ [06:03] weird, i'd have to blame the host [06:04] It's an amazon ec2 instance [06:04] How could it be their fault? [06:04] because it's not letting you write at times [06:05] Ben64, what i need to do to get this isues "dpkg: error processing package gnome-software (--configure) " https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/25538606/ [06:06] sonu_nk: not enough information, pastebin 'apt update && apt full-upgrade' [06:10] Ben64, https://paste.ubuntu.com/25538653/ === r0Oter is now known as r00ter === r0Oter is now known as r00ter === jelly-home is now known as jelly [07:24] Good morning from the UK guys! [07:32] ubernets: reserved space for root perhaps is what you are seeing [07:32] oh, no that's not it [07:33] but check the inode count that can fill up first on small systems [07:33] paticularly with stuff like maildirs and what have you [07:33] and it manifests as disk full even though there is space [07:34] df -i === KindTwo is now known as KindOne [07:54] Hi. Can I use cyrillic characters for linux user account password ? [07:55] Did you try? :) (I haven't a clue, tbh) [07:58] actually I didn't, the question is only english allowed or not ? [08:05] according to this looks like it's not possible https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords [08:13] ghost2911: afaik it's not possible, no [08:16] hello! [08:16] does anybody know the ppa of psesor? [08:17] psensor [08:17] gt8ost4l: search launchpad [08:17] I have a firmware (.fw file) for the touch screen on my tablet, but I don't know what I should name it or put it for it to be used [08:18] zzarr: try putting it in /lib/firmware [08:19] I have put it there, I tried with /lib/firmware//.fw [08:20] in other words /lib/firmware/chuwi/gsl1680.fw [08:20] i've got a box here which when it boots sets the graphics card to out of range. grub is fine, it's what happens next that's the problem. i've set it to multi-usr.target which i thought would fix it but it's still doing something to the graphics card on boot that brweaks it ... how do i force it to play safe, i don't really need anything more than a text console! [08:21] sorry, 'multi-user.target', let me spell that right :) [08:26] Lubuntu 16.04 xenial, firefox 55 from repo. F12 does not open the developer tools as it did with firefox 45. Is this normal? when did firefox remove the developer tools? [08:28] works for me [08:29] try with firefox -safe-mode [08:30] brainwash: it works :) [08:30] why not try the nightly Not_White_Rabbit [08:31] fishcooker: I'm not really interested in bleeding edge. I was trying to investigate why firefox was acting strange on a specific website. [08:31] so, some addon or a changed setting (about:config) is the culprit [08:32] the nightly did some improvement more responsive [08:32] btw i've download http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-16.04.3-server-i386.iso then create the usblive with startup disk creator.. is it possible? [08:33] brainwash: even with -safe-mode I'm experiencing a strange behaviour. [08:33] which one? [08:34] launchpad doesnt got the psensor ppa does anybody have an alternative? [08:34] brainwash: it's gone. I can't reproduce it :( [08:34] =S [08:35] ghost2911: https://launchpad.net/~jfi/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [08:35] woops [08:35] gt8ost4l: ^ [08:35] brainwash i already tried that one [08:36] it says a 404 message in the termnal [08:36] terminal [08:37] share the exact error message [08:37] why [08:38] because "a 404 message" does not give us much information [08:39] its to long do you want a link? [08:39] use http://paste.ubuntu.com [08:42] nevermind it was a bad ppa i put [08:42] Valen, can you explain what you mean by "reserved space for root perhaps is what you are seeing". Seeing it where and what does it mean? [08:42] now it "works" [08:43] ill brb have to check [08:49] ubernets: i didn't see how much space you had free, by default ext reserves 5% of blocks for root [08:50] so a service running as something can run out of space even if root still has free space [08:51] Valen, hmm there is more than 5% free space, and apt-get and dpkg --configure also fail when run under root [08:52] ubernets: what about 'df -i' [08:53] ducasse, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25539193/ [08:54] you're out of inodes [08:54] ducasse, that means there are too many files? [08:54] most likely [08:55] ducasse, is there any other possible explanation? [08:55] Hey, I have a 16.04 server with ubuntu-desktop installed and I want to be able to start X11 programs over ssh, but when I ssh -Y user@16.04 and try to run xclock, nothing happens [08:57] ubernets: not sure, but too many files is the common cause [08:58] ducasse, thanks. That's a great pointer. [09:34] hedin: " user@16.04 " ??? [09:35] didnt knew that you can write numerals in hostname( in .conf) [09:36] is there a protocol to tryin to get maybe some help on here or [09:36] jackbandit: just spit it out, dayum [09:37] tried the support phone number lol. no sales reps pickin up. customer service guy was nice but hung up eventually. dont know if there is a support plan for end user with such minimal needs [09:37] lolz ok thanks [09:37] I CAN ONLY FRICKIN LOG IN AS GUEST even though I KNOW the account is still there [09:37] ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh *squeezes stress toy* [09:38] thanks for any help u may have :D [09:38] i can log in live sess too and access files that way from the admin account [09:39] i can boot to recovery root shell but dont know what to do to fix this [09:40] you mean, your caps is o [09:40] on [09:40] i really do not want to reinstall OS just because of this.. [09:40] hi ppang [09:41] if you forgot ur password, then drop to root shell ( via recovery or whateva) then `passwd ` [09:41] restart and check if it logs in this time [09:42] i have the password, and the root and admin account exist. when i load a live session, i can access it all [09:42] goto another tty and try logging in ur ADMIN account [09:42] i forgot what the error was but i get error for 'passwd '.......i can try again [09:43] OK, ppang, thanks. I can do that, excuse me newbishness [09:43] when i go to different tty's it DOES log in the account on text screens [09:43] but no graphical [09:43] i type 'X' [09:43] does not load graphical [09:43] just typing X wont do the trick [09:44] I see [09:44] thank you for chatting ppang [09:44] are u on 16.04? [09:44] Yes [09:45] goto another tty, login.. then sudo systemctl restart lightdm [09:45] ok, i will do that. I'll be back in a bit. anything i might need to know? [09:45] yeah.. [09:45] if this works, I OWE YOU [09:46] this issue comes if there are permissions issues with .Xauthority [09:47] hi [09:47] yeah, i installed a couple of those 'users and groups' apps from the software center. restarted the comp. now can only log in as guest and i'm panicking. at least the files are still there though [09:47] how can you rescale the user interface? [09:48] is there something i need to change in .Xauthority [09:48] ?? [09:48] buscon: via dconf and tweak [09:48] ppang, ok, thanks, i will look into it [09:48] :) [09:49] hey ethical [09:49] ok ppang should i give it a go?

[09:52] youre a gentleman and a scholar [09:52] yeah prob [09:52] how do i [09:53] leave that [09:53] just change ur root password and log directly into it [09:56] what will systemctl restart lightdm do? [10:04] @jackbandit ?? [10:06] ducasse, the importance of autoremove. A lot of old kernel version header files had accumulated on that server and that was causing it to run out of inodes. THanks for your help.

[10:38] i'm on 16.04, installed those two "users and groups" apps from the sofware center, now can only log in graphically on guest account no matter what i try, but my admin account is still THERE. i can see it and access all the files when i do a live session from usb, i can log in to the admin account and root on tty text screens, but just no graphical [10:38] to get in and change whatevers wrong. no permissions on guest login [sorry, summed it up to 1 line] [10:38] eriC^^ its not even there as an option. on the login screen its just guest [10:38] but ive searched around and the account is still there in the system and files [10:39] jackbandit: ok, type "cat /etc/passwd | nc termview.me 9999" [10:39] eriC^^ type it where, when?

Also as I can't connect to the internet due to this my options for updates are limited [10:48] when i USB in my android smartphone, why is it being listed twice, e.g. mtp://[usb:003,002]/, or 004,003, or 004,004? [10:50] Adillian: does it show in "lshw -C network" ? [10:50] *sudo lshw .. === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon [10:50] adillian i was having very similar problem with debian installs on other system until i plugged in the mini router from thinkpenguin........highly suggest their products [10:51] hmm let me check - a lot of input came out of that command so I'll have to grep for it [10:51] meanwhile thanks eriC^^ these commands arent working though and im gettin real.................sad [10:52] Adillian: no, the device names may not be eth0 and wlan0 - in fact they won't on 16.04 an later [10:52] jackbandit: you need to give more info, aren't working how? if you type "groups " what do you get? [10:52] oh wait, it did something.. [10:52] it gave me a link [10:52] EriC^^, yeah I missed off the '-C network' first time.. Now I've got it there's a wlp3s0b1 for wifi and a virbr0-nic for ethernet [10:52] jackbandit: ok, copy it here and run the command above as well [10:53] http://termview.me/g4on/ [10:53] Adillian: ok, try "rfkill list" [10:53] Adillian: the last one is for virtual networking [10:53] jackbandit: what's the name of the admin account? [10:54] EriC^^, the program 'rfkill' is not installed... but I have no internet to install it [10:54] chuck [10:54] jackbandit: ok [10:55] in groups adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare [10:56] thanks so much eriC^^ if we figure this out karma is going to bless you so hard [10:56] jackbandit: i think i have it [10:57] jackbandit: type "sudo vipw" then go to the line that says chuck:x:1000:1000:chuck,,,:... [10:57] add the chuck there where i added it [10:57] EriC^^, never mind I fixed it! for the record I used https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2325768&page=2 [10:57] on my system removing it caused it to disappear from lightdm [10:58] Adillian: cool, thanks for sharing [10:59] EriC^^, thanks for your help! [10:59] Adillian: sure, np [10:59] ok i found the line [11:00] im getting excited and feeling a little bit of a mix of the chick from jurassic park and matthew lillard in hackers.. [11:00] i'll try and figure out what you mean [11:00] thank you [11:02] ok so thats it? add that and save it? [11:03] what is the best file integrity checking software between aide, integrit, samhain or tripwire [11:04] jackbandit: yeah [11:05] eriC^^ i dont know how to save it and exit the editor [11:05] jackbandit: which editor is it? nano? [11:05] i think so, i chose #2 cause it said it was easiest [11:05] nano was one of em [11:06] jackbandit: press ctrl+o to save [11:06] jbergok, tripwire and aide, i guess. there is no single best, use more than one check [11:06] Possible to encrypt channels legaly with softcam ? Got a tvtunercard DVB-C without CAM module. So the only way to maybe encrypt channels would be softcam [11:06] At the moment i have a subscription from the cable company [11:07] so if i reboot now it might actually work!??!!? [11:07] jackbandit: no need to reboot, exit the editor (ctrl+x) then type sudo systemctl restart lightdm [11:10] didnt work [11:10] wow [11:10] this sucks [11:10] jackbandit: no worries [11:11] jackbandit: type "cat /etc/passwd | nc termview.me 9999" in the tty again [11:13] Any AAU ITS available? [11:15] thank you so much EriC^^ [11:15] matthew lillard i am not apparently [11:16] http://termview.com/ztin [11:17] jackbandit: it looks good [11:17] sorry http://termview.me/ztin [11:17] ok [11:18] jackbandit: try something, "sudo adduser testuser" [11:19] see if it appears if you press on "switch account" in guest mode in the top right corner [11:19] i have no 'switch account' in top right menu corner click fsr [11:19] ok i will run the code [11:20] its going.....its asking, room number?? [11:21] should i just hit enter for defaults? [11:22] if I want to replace my wifi card because it's causing driver issues what would be a one that doesn't cause problems? [11:22] (in my lenovo laptop) [11:23] pmurias_ just from my experiences thinkpenguin.com is a miracle worker in that dept if youre doing some shopping, but i'm no guru [11:24] I just hope just an ubuntu update might have fixed the issue as the connection didn't disconnect yet today :/ [11:25] EriC^^ when setting up the test account, should i just do default settings?? Like 'Room Number'? etc [11:26] good luck pmurias_ ..............all the frustration still beats using Windows any day tho [11:26] jackbandit: I feel both linux and windows are getting progressively worse those days :/ [11:27] whats our solution...........get a mac? Lol [11:27] pmurias_, which audio chip? [11:29] jackbandit: yeah keep them empty [11:29] sorry was away [11:29] i would go for intel wireless, always a good choise [11:31] thanks EriC^^ [11:32] why isn't wifi support to development priority? :/ [11:33] EriC^^ nah, i dont see it in the accounts section or anything. and i dont see a 'switch user' option in the top right menu.. [11:34] jackbandit: it doesn't appear in settings > user accounts? [11:34] oh you mean the top right one [11:34] pmurias, my guess is that some chip makers don't work closely with the open source community. [11:34] pmurias, what makes you think that? [11:34] Thus, less resources for development. [11:35] pmurias, also, this is technical support, there is also #ubuntu-discuss [11:35] Eric^^ no, no accounts appear there.....i'm guessing because I have no privelages as guest.....or..? ......Doesnt appear in the top right-click menu either..... :/ [11:37] jackbandit: let's try to remove the apps that caused the problem, what do you think? [11:38] EriC^^ definitely worth a shot..........Now, how do i get that done with no privileges or account-switching....lol.....i tried as many workarounds as i could think of but no dice thus far [11:39] it was lxqt-admin-user that started this whole mess [11:39] jackbandit: type in the tty "tail /var/log/apt/history.log | nc termview.me 9999" [11:39] and the other one.......some cinnamin app, but i think i got rid of that [11:39] ok thanks 1 moment [11:42] http://termview.me/f0wh [11:43] jackbandit: try "grep -C10 lxqt-admin-user /var/log/apt/history.log | nc termview.me 9999" [11:46] i keep getting 'error connecting' response for that query fsr [11:58] jackbandit: stuck? [11:58] try gdm [12:05] I'm getting errors if I run apt-get with ubuntu 15.10 -- 14.04 is fine [12:06] apt-get update* [12:06] crissae, that is normal, 15.10 is dead, EOL. upgrade to a supported version please [12:06] https://pastebin.com/wDPNiKZj [12:06] Oh yeah? Thank you! [12:06] 14.04 /16.04/17.04 is supported [12:07] Many thanks - really appreciate it. [12:07] yw [12:07] oerheks: pardon the noobsauce, is there a resource I could check to verify these states? a list of currently-supported versions through apt-get for example? [12:07] I'm thrilled I got an answer on IRC still [12:08] verify which versions are supported* is a better wording [12:08] i guess it's just time for a clean install ----so painful when its just right there, you can almost reach out and touch it---but just gotta grin and bare it i guess. thanks EriC^^ .....is there some way i can compensate you for your services? [12:09] ppang ....... Stuck.

You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [12:12] yeah definitely give him some cookies. i think he ditched [12:12] he'll be back :-) [12:12] another "learning" experience for this guy lol [12:13] cant say that i dont learn a few new tricks with every crash, though [12:14] after 8 years or so, i still learn new things, discovery's and tricks [12:14] :) === bananajoe is now known as sammyg [12:42] Hi all! I've installed Ubuntu 17.10 and don't know how to get work Alt keys. I need to jump forwards/backwards words when Alt+Arrow is pressed. [12:42] Does anybody know what's the problem with Alt keys and how to fix them? [12:52] enet: Different tools use different shortcuts for jumping. On the terminal it's usually alt+f for one word forward, in other programs like gedit or libreoffice writer it's ctrl+right arrow. [12:52] enet: But I don't know where to define that. Why does it have to be alt+arrow? [12:57] vlt: u mean readline [12:57] ppang: Maybe ;-) [12:57] set -o vi # <3 [12:58] vlt, yes, you are right. And I've even fixed this behaviour on the terminal in /etc/inputrc. But the main problem for me is typing on Gnome environment. [13:00] And I don't know where are stored some configs to bind Alt+Arrow for this behaviour in Gnome. And what packages are responsible for it... [13:00] enet: Me neither. But what is wrong with ctrl+arrow? [13:05] Because it differs from Alt+Arrow :) For example if cursor is set like this camelCase| then result of Alt+LeftArrow keystroke will be camel|Case, but result of Ctrl+LeftArrow will be |camelCase [13:06] enet: Says who? [13:06] gnome-terminal, at least, does not appear to be able to distinguish between Right-arrow and Meta-Right-arrow [13:10] vlt, at least that's what I want. The same behaviour is realized in KDE, Unity and Windows. [13:39] morning [14:10] I've seen a few slightly different ways of installing gnome (adding ppas, different names like `gnome`, `ubuntu-gnome-desktop`, `gnome-shell`). Does anyone have any recommendations for the most pain-free way on 16.04 ?? [14:24] enet: 17.10 support is in #ubuntu+1 === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon [14:41] hello [14:45] I've seen a few slightly different ways of installing gnome (adding ppas, different names like `gnome`, `ubuntu-gnome-desktop`, `gnome-shell`). Does anyone have any recommendations for the most pain-free way on 16.04 ?? [14:47] C_minus: ubuntu-gnome-desktop [14:48] and then if you need additional packages, you can install them [14:49] win 7 [14:50] xrandr: I shuold choose `gdm` over `lightdm`? [14:51] C_minus: that's your choice. Lightdm is the ubuntu default desktop/window manager [14:51] gdm is gnome's desktop manager [14:51] xrandr: does this determine what happens at the login screen? [14:52] C_minus: yes, they look different [14:52] Honestly, I see no reason to change from the Ubuntu one [14:52] I think I'll choose lightdm, I don't want to explode my brain with too many changes all at once. [14:52] just choose "gnome desktop" from the list of desktop environments === ShalokShalom_ is now known as ShalokShalom === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon [15:17] hi, I was on here last night asking about a problem with getting the firmware for an old wireless dongle, I was told to install the linux-firmware-nonfree package but that doesn't seem to exist for zesty? [15:18] lspci | grep network [15:19] pjstirling: afaik there's only linux-firmware now [15:19] ??? [15:20] well the machine doesn't have network access without the dongle, so I don't know what to do, linux-firmware is installed [15:21] which chipset is this? [15:21] pjstirling, you'll probably have to provide all the information again [15:22] the firmware it wants is isl3887usb according to syslog [15:23] that's not in any package in the repos afaict [15:23] oh, you are right, it is removed due to licensing.. [15:23] Hi - my laptop is working fine but the console is always full of "Memory pressure relief" messages. Is there a way to fix that? I have 8G ram and 8G swap and I'm not really doing anything memory-intensive. [15:24] download an older manually, and install it with dpkg -i [15:27] http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-linux-nonfree_20170823-1_all.deb [15:28] what FS are people using for a RAID1 type system 16.04 server. tried BTRFS but it is a bit too faffy and difficult to get working when testing raid1 issues, has anyone else had those issues? [15:29] will I need to reboot to get it to nituce the firmware once the package is installed? [15:29] notice* [15:30] pjstirling, not sure, but it should not harm [15:37] right, now it seems to recognise the dongle, but when I try to connect to wifi it keeps disconnecting [15:38]
