Minor723I downloaded 2 different .deb files. One is Plex and the other is teamviewer. On both when i open it and click install it does nothing. What can I do02:16
[n0mad]sudo dpkg -i name_of_file.deb02:18
Minor723Why does the install button not work?02:19
[n0mad]not sure..sometimes mine seems to not want to install just by opening the .deb as well02:20
[n0mad]when it doesn't work i just use the command line02:20
[n0mad]never bothered to see if i could find a solution02:20
Minor723plex installed teamviewer encountered errors02:21
Minor723Can i pipe this output to paste somehow02:24
RooSaladHoly cow I managed to remember how to use IRC to get here.02:25
Minor723n0mad Can you help me with dependency issues02:26
RooSaladI need help! COMPLETELY new to Linux (Ubuntu), trying to figure out how to set up a seperate drive for program installations, and how to set up another seperate drive for Steam Games02:26
Travankorgparted02:27
Bashing-omRooSalad: See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive .02:28
RooSaladBashing-om: Thanks02:28
subdavisRooSalad: recommend making drive changes from a live disk or live USB.  You can use GParted or the built in utilities.  You'll also want to mount them when you boot, so google /etc/fstab.02:28
Bashing-omRooSalad: We are here to help you over the rough spots .:)02:29
Minor723Can you help me with dependency issues installing teamviewer02:29
Minor723unless you reccomend a better program to remotly manage my linux free02:29
subdavisI would probably opt for https://www.vpn.net/ - Logmein Hamachi02:31
Minor723can ubuntu use rom files02:32
Minor723rpm*02:32
Minor723This software installer does not work for anything :(02:32
subdavisMinor723: you must convert rpms to .deb files.  There should always be a .deb option offered, or a ppa to install from.  Could you paste the output from the installer?02:34
Bashing-omMinor723: Not easily - RPM is Redhat package management . We use apt .02:34
Minor723subdavis, https://pastebin.com/m01qhKEn02:35
Minor723ok i was only asking because the software installer does not work02:36
Minor723i click install and it does nothing02:36
subdavisBashing-om: Apt is a package manager, not a binary type.  Ubuntu uses .deb (or debian) type binaries.  yum is CentOS/RHEL's package manager.02:36
subdavisI'll echo [n0mad] above: open a terminal and try to `sudo dpkg -i /path/to/installer.deb`02:37
Minor723Thats what i ran02:37
Minor723YOu can see it in my paste02:37
subdavisAh sorry, let me inspect that log.02:37
Minor723Seems to be the only way i can install software02:38
subdavisIt's possible that you need to update your package system.   Especially if this is a new install.  Read the thread on https://askubuntu.com/questions/252777/how-can-i-resolve-dpkg-dependency02:39
Minor723yes this is a new install i will look at that02:39
Bashing-omMinor723: " This deb package requires many dependency packages. Manually finding and installing dependency packages is a tedious task. We can use the gdebi package installer to automatically handle all required dependencies for us." from: https://www.linuxbabe.com/ubuntu/install-teamviewer-12-ubuntu-16-04-ubuntu-16-10 .02:39
captain_morgancan anyone suggest what would cause me to loose right click on the titlebar?02:42
captain_morganContext menu is missing02:42
Minor723After hamachi is installed where does it goI cant find it?02:45
Bashing-om!info hamachi xenial02:47
ubottuPackage hamachi does not exist in xenial02:47
subdavishttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Hamachi - if you're new to ubuntu, may I recommend the GUI version.02:48
Minor723haha thats what i thought iwas getting yes i need gui02:49
Minor723How do i remove the non gui version i installed02:49
subdavisI'm not sure how you installed it (or what the package is called).  Try `apt list --installed | grep hamachi`02:52

GoopI was wondering if there is a way for my system to have scheduled downtime. Like, my system would shut off, and then the motherboard would turn on the system half an hour later. I was just wondering if that was a thing.03:33
Random832Goop, what for?03:35
FrostyBytesGoop: that can be done on some hardware.03:35
FrostyBytesobviously there is no fully general way to do that short of a microprocessor controlled power outlet03:36
GoopSo after a while of uptime on my desktop machine, the machine starts to get a little buggy and gets a little slow. My guess is that is needs system reboots/a little bit of downtime, because I leave it turned on all the time. So I was wondering if I could schedule my system to be turned off between 2AM 2:30AM when I am asleep.03:36
Random832Goop, is there a reason you need it to be down for half an hour rather than just rebooting it?03:37
=== chickenChknChkn is now known as capella
Random832a reboot is *much* easier than what you're asking for.03:37
GoopRandom832, eh. Not sure.03:37
Random832it looks like rtcwake supports scheduling a wakeup from shutdown if your system supports it, or you could have another device on the network (some routers can do this) send a wake on lan packet03:38
Random832but honestly i'd just see if a reboot is enough first03:39
Ben64seems like the real solution would be to figure out the problem rather than work around it03:39
Random832that too03:39
Ben64 20:39:59 up 86 days, 15 min, 12 users,  load average: 2.25, 2.37, 2.3603:40
FrostyBytesthe reason this feature is poorly supported is because it doesn't make almost any sense. just reboot. what does it benefit you to have your system off for 1/2hr?03:40
Ben64desktop doing fine over here03:40
GoopRandom832, maybe I don't need half an hour downtime, I'll just schedule reboots at 2AM every day. Every time I use "sudo reboot", programs like Google Chrome don't shut down properly. Is there a way to send some sort of "gentle" shutdown signal to the system?03:40
FrostyBytesgoogle chrome couldn't care less if you yank the power cord out of the wall socket03:41
FrostyBytesproper shutdown only really matters if you are running mysql databases or something like that03:41
FrostyBytessudo reboot should usually shut things down in an orderly fashion though03:42
Random832the fact that chrome offers to restore your session doesn't mean it was actually harmed, for the record03:42
Random832for that matter, the fact that it can means it's specifically designed to be fine03:42
GoopFrostyBytes, what's the way to "proper[ly]" shutdown a Ubuntu system from command line?03:43
FrostyBytesthe reason google chrome is not shut down cleanly is because it's not a service managed by init (systemd)03:43
FrostyBytessudo reboot or sudo halt03:44
Random832FrostyBytes, init sends every process SIGTERM, that should be enough to let it shut down cleanly enough if it cares.03:45
Random832I do wonder if there's some command line incantation to use polkit or whatever to do the same kind of shutdown you'd get from the desktop environment menu, which IIRC allows programs with unsaved data to stop the shutdown03:46
GoopSo, to schedule system reboots, I would have to use root's crontab, right? How do I do that? I'm new to crontab.03:47
jerichowasahoaxRandom832: i have a regular sleep schedule and keep my computer in my bedroom, downtime like the original question describes wouldn't be bizarre for me03:49
jerichowasahoaxit would be for more like 8 hours instead of half of one, but03:49
Random832jerichowasahoax, well, the next question for that scenario would be "why not bring it back up manually"03:50
Random832especially since that's the hard part03:50
jerichowasahoaxRandom832: i had to disconnect my power button from my motherboard because i haven't gotten around to cleaning it yet, but i admit that's a less common problem03:52
jerichowasahoaxa better argument would be convenience: sure, i *could* just push the power button. but what if it did that for me when i got out of bed in the morning?03:53
jerichowasahoaxanyway, most recent motherboards should have support for scheduled wakes in some form or another - microsoft has been making a big deal about it for windows update for ages03:58

system162-system error detected . (it doesnt give ANY kind of info )05:51
system16VGA: NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT05:51
system16btw i used live-usb05:52
lotuspsychjesystem16: ubuntu does support nvidia, 2 errors on ubuntu do give usefull info05:52
lotuspsychjesystem16: wich ubuntu did you try?05:52
system16well there was 1 option : send error info to ubuntu (some thing like that)05:52
system1616.0405:53
lotuspsychjesystem16: wich iso .2 or >.3?05:53
system16what do u mean ?05:53
lotuspsychjesystem16: wich iso did you download from ubuntu.com, and when?05:53
foopermanThere's usually crash reports in /var/crash/05:54
system16last night... u mean the mirror ?05:54
system16i have the file05:54
hateballsystem16: And for nvidia cards, you will want to use the restricted driver, which is not possible during a live-session05:54
Tin_manover the years that I've been evolved with ubuntu, and linux in general, NVIDIA has been a thorn in the side.05:54
system16ubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso05:54
hateballThe open source driver nouveau is... not great05:55
lotuspsychjeTin_man: you can discuss that in #ubuntu-discuss if you like05:55
system16oh and i tried installing hexchat but it didnt open it05:55
lotuspsychjesystem16: ok good, now explain what happened after install05:55
Tin_manlotuspsychje, no discussion necessary https://www.bit-tech.net/news/tech/software/torvalds-slams-nvidia/1/05:57

lotuspsychjesystem16: try hateball suggestion also06:00
system16btw i clicked on "install ubuntu" after step 2 it hanged ( freezed)06:01
lotuspsychjesystem16: if hexchat fails, try a freenode weh session to #ubuntu06:01
lotuspsychjesystem16: but you bypassed that step right, as you instaled hexchat?06:02
system16step 2 : "install third party software"06:02
system16i enabled that option06:03
hateballsystem16: You can do that after the base install, in case it is giving you trouble for whatever reason (like mirrors being down, or no internet connection)06:03
system16btw im new to linux what is /dev/sda ? is it my C: drive ?06:04

system16btw i wanna dual-boot06:05
lotuspsychjemorning cfhowlett06:06
hateballsystem16: Uh... partitions and the filesystem structure is rather different from Windows, there's no "C:"06:06
cfhowletthey ^3 lotuspsychje06:06
hateballsystem16: If you just follow the install wizard it will install a dual boot and create partitions as needed06:06
system16so it wont damage windows ?06:07
Tin_mansystem16, best bet is not to dual boot, go to some garage sales, and pick up a used computer that has intel graphics, and install ubuntu, and play around with it. It's a good system if you can get it booted up.06:07
lotuspsychjesystem16: backup your data before you experiment06:07
cfhowlettsystem16, somewhat disagree with dual boot advice.06:07
hateballsystem16: That's the whole idea of dual boot, but as always take backups. And also like others have said, avoid dual boot if possible :p06:08
cfhowlettI suggest you install virtualbox to windows, then create a virtualmachine and install a light *buntu (xubuntu/ubuntu/budgie) there until you are ready to commit to a dualboot scenario06:08
system16i dont want those things i really like ubuntu..06:09
lotuspsychjesystem16: why do you need windows for then?06:09

system16my main pc has virtual box06:09
system16i need windows for (games)06:10

cfhowlettferal interactive is releasing linux games quite reguarly06:10
system16ok i will try to install ubuntu in virtual box06:11
hateballWhile Steam is on Linux, sadly not all games are. Depending on what you play that's not an issue tho. And !wine has made good progress as well06:11
cfhowlettsystem16, ram and lots of it will optimize your virtual ubuntu experience.06:12
system16my laptop has 8 GB of ram06:13
system16intel core i7 6500u06:13
system16nvidia 940m06:13
cfhowlettsystem16, assign half to your ubuntu will give you only 4 gb.  Technically, ubuntu will run but not sprint.  thus my earlier suggest to use a light flavor06:14
system16btw can i connect to a SFTP server without installing special apps in ubuntu ?06:14

vltHello. Is there a way to make a DHCP request without actually changing any network configuration? I want to see what IP address and gateway I *would* get assigned.06:37
system16i think u can do that in routers setup in info tab06:38
vltsystem16: I'm sorry, I didn't understand that. What do you mean with "routers setup" and "info tab"?06:42
system16192.168.1.106:42
ikoniavlt: no, the request is what gets the IP06:42
ikoniavlt: you can't do a "dummy" request,06:42
system16i use d-link.06:43
ikoniathe router has nothing to do with it06:43
system16well i can see what is my ip and... in my router setup ...06:43
ducasseyes, but he wants to see what he *would* get when one isn't assigned yet06:44
ikoniaright, because you have an IP06:44
ikoniahe's asking what he WOULD get, because he doesn't have one06:44
system16oh ok06:45
vltsystem16: There might be no router involved at all. I just wat to know what IP address I *would* get from a DHCP server (not router).06:46
vlt*want06:47
ikoniavlt: there is no "dummy" get from dhclient, sorry06:47
system16sorry idk how to do that in ubuntu06:48
vltikonia: To be precise I want to know what I would get not because I *don't* have one but because I *already* have one ;-)06:48
system16y do u want that ?06:48
ikoniavlt: you'd get what you have then06:48
ikoniabecause the lease would still be valid if it's renewed to the point you still have an IP06:48
vltikonia: I doubt that :-D06:49
ikoniavlt: I don't06:49
vltikonia: I don't have a DHCP assigned IP address now.06:49
ikoniavlt: stop messing around then, you DONT have an IP then06:49
ikoniavlt: either way, you have your answer06:49
vltikonia: I'm pretty sure I do have one. If there's no dgclient option I'll try to find out what "whereami" does to probe the DHCP server. Thanks for your help :-)06:51
vlt*dhclient06:51
ikoniait won't give you an answer until the lease for the request is allocated06:52
ikoniathe only way to get the lease is to ask for an IP06:52
ikoniaeverything else would be a "guess" or a "possible" outcome06:52
coincoin169Hi, I need java plugin to access some BMC for some server, but with ubuntu 17 and icedtea-plugin installed, firefox won't show me any java plugin in about:plugins. I read that I have to "activate" it, but how?06:57
cfhowlettshould be a popup with a button to trigger approval06:57
coincoin169cfhowlett: a popup from where? firefox?06:58
cfhowlettyep.  I get them for flash all the time.  I THINK a similar situation for java06:58
coincoin169ah yes I see but this means that flash plugin has been "found" by firefox and it asks you permission to execute it.06:59
coincoin169When you go to about:plugins you can see flash listed.06:59
coincoin169But for java plugin, it is not even listed in about:plugins06:59

Doc-Saintlylinuxnew: Ubuntu comes with a VNC server built in as the default method of remotely sharing the desktop08:11
linuxnewok, so is there anyway to connect to the built in server?08:12
Doc-SaintlyI think it's the Vino one. So, if you installed tightvnc as wel, they're probably fighting each other :)08:12
linuxnewi am trying to check the desktop enviromnet08:12
Doc-Saintlyjust use the menu and open the "Remote Sharing" (I  think) app08:12
alkisglinuxnew: why do you keep pasting that WHA... line? Also, run it like this: vncserver. It will ask for a default pass, and it will tell you which display it's using. Also, what are you trying to do?08:12
Doc-Saintlyyou can configure the password, if a confirmation is required, etc.08:12
linuxnewok let me try08:13
linuxnewi am not the one posting WHA thing08:13
alkisgAh yes sorry, my client was using the same username color there08:13
linuxnewNew 'X' desktop is orangepi:308:14
linuxnewand gave me a log file..08:14
linuxnewnow i need to change vncpasswd?08:14
linuxnewwhich i did and still no joy08:14
alkisgDidn't it ask for a password already?08:14
alkisgOK then you can connect using "vncviewer :3"08:14
alkisgBut note that this vncserver by default is running *another* desktop, not sharing the one you have08:15
linuxnewstill says wrong pass08:15
alkisgWhen you typed "vncserver", it showed some output. Paste *all* the output to paste.ubuntu.com08:15
linuxnewany desktop is fine.. as long as i can figure out how to get to it.. lol08:15
linuxnewStarting applications specified in /home/orangepi/.vnc/xstartup Log file is /home/orangepi/.vnc/orangepi:3.log08:16
system16whats the default DE name ?08:16
linuxnewthis was the output08:16
alkisglinuxnew, all of it, even the part where it asks for the password08:16
alkisgBecause if it didn't ask for one, it's using one from the .vnc folder, which might not be the one you expect08:16
linuxneworangepi@orangepi:~$ vncserver  New 'X' desktop is orangepi:3  Starting applications specified in /home/orangepi/.vnc/xstartup Log file is /home/orangepi/.vnc/orangepi:3.log  orangepi@orangepi:~$ vncpasswd Password: Verify:08:16
linuxnewok so i need to go to .vnc folder and edit a file?08:17
alkisglinuxnew: killall Xtightvnc; mv ~/.vnc /tmp/; vncserver08:17
alkisgIt should ask for a password without you typing "vncpasswd" or anything08:18
ducassesystem16: until now, unity. from 17.10 on it will be gnome 308:18

linuxnewso just type "vncviewer localhost"08:41
alkisgYes08:41
linuxnewi used network to find the IP and ssh to it08:41

alkisglinuxnew: it's in lightdm, so it's more difficult to gain access. Do you have a main linux box where you're working from? Is it ubuntu, or e.g. windows with putty?08:52
xcom169Anyone here use encrypted home folder?08:52
linuxnewwindows putty08:53
alkisgHmm, more difficult then. Just for fun, I can help you with remote support if you want...08:54
linuxnewhmm teamvierwer... but this PC is not mine...08:55
alkisgNo need08:55
alkisgYou run this on the client: sudo apt install epoptes-client08:55

sYnfoHey, I installed postgres, modified the config, and now I'd like to reinstall postgres and get the default config, however neither apt-get remove, nor apt-get purge seems to make the latter install rewrite the configs. What should I do?09:46
vltAnticom: apt update09:46
vltAnticom: Then try again.09:46
AnticomsYnfo: usually a purge should get rid of the config aswell. If that doesn't work, try finding all files postgres package has installed by running   dpkg-query -L postgresql09:49
stubsYnfo: ' pg_dropcluster 9.5 main' will destroy the existing database and config. 'pg_createcluster 9.5 main' will create a fresh install09:49
AnticomAlso during upgrade i got errors with cryptsetup. Is this pck broken atm_09:50
ducasseAnticom: looks like connection problems, try with another mirror09:53
sYnfoI did, perhaps foolishly, rm -rf /etc/postgresql, so maybe that's the issue?09:53

AnticomWhy do i need to disable UEFI secure boot when choosing to install non-free software?10:13
AnticomI don't get this10:13
ducasseAnticom: you don't need to, you can also sign those modules yourself10:15
hateballAnticom: Are you talking about eg nvidia driver?10:15
Anticomhateball: the installer was telling me to10:16
hateballAnticom: "the installer" isnt very helpful10:16
AnticomAlthough i can disable that checkbox that disables secureboot10:16
hateballAnticom: The installer for *what* ?10:16
Anticomhateball: FYI I'm currently on a live image of ubuntu and have launched the installer because i'd like to have ubuntu as secondary OS10:17
Anticomhateball: well... ubuntu's installer10:17
hateballRight10:17
ducasseAnticom: normally, ubuntu signs kernel modules for you, but third-party modules are built on your machine and thus need to be signed there10:17
hateballWell anyhows, using nvidia proprietary driver requires you to disable secureboot, but that's only in the shim, it's not in the actual UEFI10:17
Anticomducasse: is it difficult to sign packages?10:17
Anticomnever did this before10:17
ducasseand the installer doesn't disable secure boot, it disables module verification10:17
AnticomAs a background: I've just bought a new lenovo laptop (t470p) and i don't know whether all peripherals will work w/o using properiatery drivers10:18
ducassenot packages, kernel modules. you need to create a key, enroll it and sign the modules every time they get rebuilt on kernel updates10:18
AnticomMaybe i'm on the wrong track anyways10:19
hateballAnticom: if you have a modern computer you're going to want to use nvidia proprietary driver, at least for now10:19
Anticomhateball: it's got an nvidia 940m installed10:19
hateballbut that's probably the only thing, apart from intel microcode10:19
Anticomhowever all my monitors are working fine and the graphics are smooth10:19
hateballWell, don't fix it if it isnt broken10:20
Anticomand it's not intended to be a gaming rig anyways10:20
hateballIf you intend to do any gaming tho, performance will be not-great with nouveau10:20
Anticomand what about this mp3 thing?10:20
Anticomhateball: no it's a work-horse and just needs to power my IDEs. However I'm eventually going to look into GPU accelerated TensorFlow. Dunno whether i need any nvidia drivers for that10:21
hateballAnticom: you need nvidia driver to run cuda10:21
hateballAnticom: well mp3 used to be patent encumbered so that's why it couldnt be shipped by default10:22
hateballbut I think that went away recently?10:22
Anticomhttps://imgur.com/uLPRhTr this is what i'm seeing10:24
AnticomBtw it's 16.04 LTS10:25
hateballAnticom: Yes, like we've already established, that is due to installing the nvidia driver10:26
Anticomhateball: Sorry for being stupid but i'm not really sure of the consequences still :/10:27
ducasseit will disable the verification of module signatures10:27
Anticomducasse: but secure boot will still be active?10:29
Anticombecause it's explicitly mentioning secure boot there10:29
hateballAnticom: In UEFI you will have the option of both Windows and Ubuntu once you install. Once you pick Ubuntu it will load the shim, and this disables module verification *there*10:29
hateballIt has no impact on UEFI or Windows10:29
hateballIf you could disable secureboot from a liveboot, wouldnt that defeat the point?10:29
Anticomhateball: And what's the "security key" i'm being prompted for?10:30
ducasseiirc, that's where you set the password to interact with the mokmanager on the next boot, where you select to disable verification.10:32
Anticomducasse: so that doesn't affect any BIOS settings?10:32
ducasseno10:32
hateballI feel like this is going in circles10:32
Anticomhateball: well I don't know a lot about those things and i want to do my installation right because i feel like fixing it afterwards would be a great pain10:33
Anticomsorry to annoy you guys10:33
hateballAnticom: I didnt mean to offend10:33
Anticomhateball: didn't take it as such10:33
Anticom:)10:33
hateballAnticom: Here's a post also https://askubuntu.com/questions/765697/why-was-i-asked-to-create-a-password-in-order-to-disable-secure-boot-on-initial10:33
hateballAnticom: You can of course choose to not do these during install, but then you need to manually run mokutil to disable module verification, install drivers etc10:34
Anticomhateball: hm in the top answer it says that the bootloader is protected. However when choosing to install ubuntu alongside windows grub is installed as boot manager. Or is grub != bootloader?10:34
hateballAnticom: well with UEFI it is chained. UEFI will boot GRUB which will then boot Ubuntu10:36
ducassegrub is signed. if you select windows, it will pass verification off tho the windows bootloader. of you select ubuntu, it will pass you off to a signed shim, which is what controls if ubuntu is booted with or without verification on.10:37
Anticomso GRUB should be signed in order to work with secure boot or am i missing something?10:37
Anticomaaaah10:37
ducassetho=to10:37
Anticomokay10:37
Anticomso the verification is checked twice nevertheless of the chosen OS10:37
Anticom(?)10:37
ducassethink of it as a chain10:38
Anticomyep, got it10:38
ducassefirmware -> boot manager -> bootloader -> kernel ...10:38
AnticomOkay one last question concerning the partitioning. I've read over at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot#Install_Ubuntu that choosing the first option is not recommended10:38
Anticomwhy is that?10:38
AnticomI mean in my case it's a single SSD and it's just my personal laptop. So I don't see the need to fiddle with partitions or is there any advantage in my case of doing so?10:39
hateballAnticom: Probably due to non-microsoft-made tools being used to resize NTFS partitions10:39
Anticomhateball: before booting into live Ubuntu image i've shrunk the windows partition as far as i could already10:40
hateballSo it is recommended you use the tools provided in that OS to resize partitions to leave free space for Ubuntu to be installed on10:40
hateballThat information is outdated also, it mentions swap partition but swap file is now used...10:41
hateballNot in 16.04 tho I guess10:41
Anticomhateball: when checking the latter box and clicking next this is what i see: https://imgur.com/3OvhLEJ10:41
AnticomAlso i should mention that i'm basically a newbie when it comes to partitions and related stuff. So I'm likely to break anything rather than doing it better than the automatic setup10:42
hateballAnticom: I'd go with automatic :)10:42
AnticomSo unless one of you guys would like to give me step-by-step instructions i'm stuck with the manual setup anyways10:42

vijaikumarHello everybody13:03
vijaikumarI use this following command to get Xorg version in my scripts13:03
vijaikumarXorg --version13:04
vijaikumarIt was working fine in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS13:04
vijaikumarToday i randomly tested it13:04
vijaikumarand i am getting an error13:04
vijaikumar /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg.wrap: Only console users are allowed to run the X server13:04
vijaikumarI use it to get the version and force user's machine to use virtualgl since there were some issues with Xorg in between13:05
EriC^^vijaikumar: try Xorg -version13:06
AnticomOn 16.04LTS should i rather use unity-tweak-tool or ubuntu-tweak?13:07
Anticom(Setting up Flatabulous)13:08
vijaikumarEriC^^: Same issue13:08
ac_slaterguys please. I didnt update any packages or anything, but after rebooting I can't change monitor resolution and network manager grays out wifi. Is gnome puking13:09
Anticomvijaikumar: probably not recommended but for me sudo Xorg -version works13:09
ac_slater?13:09
Anticomac_slater: any valuable information from dmesg?13:10
EriC^^vijaikumar: seems like it's a known bug13:10
ac_slaterAnticom: nothing mate13:10
Anticomhm13:11
ac_slaterAnticom: No errors or anything13:11
EriC^^vijaikumar: why don't you use dpkg to get the version if it's to be run only on ubuntu/debian?13:11
ac_slaterAnticom: I'm not too good at debugging gnome issues :(13:12
Anticomac_slater: dunno whether it's a gnome issue. Did you try changing resolution via cli?13:13
ac_slaterAnticom: yea xrandr just has a single mode13:13

ac_slaterAnticom: yea man, no idea what's wrong here13:16
Southern_Gentlemyou need libtsdc-devel13:16
ac_slaterAnticom: rather shitty honestly, hopefully it's something simple13:16
Southern_Gentlemyou need libstdc-devel13:16
Anticomac_slater: sorry i'm not an expert either13:17
alkisgac_slater: what did you upgrade, e.g. from 14.04 to 16.04? Kernel upgrade? Xorg upgrade?13:18
AnticomBtw anyone on my question regarding unity-tweak-tool vs ubuntu-tweak on 16.0413:18
vijaikumarEriC^^: Thanks i will check it out13:18
vijaikumarBut i run it on Debian and RHEL13:18
vijaikumarI guess i have to look at distro specific solution now13:18
vijaikumarAppreciate your help :)13:19
EriC^^vijaikumar: no problem :)13:19
trafaret1hi there13:20
alkisgvijaikumar: hehe, then if you get that message, assume it's a new xorg :)13:21
alkisgvijaikumar: also file a bug report for that to be fixed, at least --version should run as non-root13:21
alkisgvijaikumar: you can also run: /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg -version13:22

jamie_1hey, i have a curious question... i had my hard drive port on my laptop stop working and ended up just using a external hdd duck taped to the top of the laptop lid... does any one know of any ways to install windows from linux on a eternal hdd?e i have been researching it and all i can find is way to do it from a windows install and all i have right now is ubuntu gnome and have no way to boot windows till i find a way to install it on the13:31
trafaret1is it possible to install ubuntu like second os on PC right from hard drive?13:31
jamie_1trafaret1: yes13:31
jamie_1you just need to make a live boot usb and then follow the instructions for install and select install along side windows when the option shows up13:32
alkisgjamie_1: you can create a windows boot usb stick, and then install to an external windows disk, without involving ubuntu at all; which means you can ask how to do this in #windows13:33
Menzador##windows13:33
oerheks"any ways to install windows from linux" no13:33
Menzador(not without a VM)13:33
jamie_1alkisg: not really... windows has a really stupid block... its installer will not allow installation to a external hdd13:34
alkisgjamie_1: it's possible, but not related to ubuntu, so off topic here13:34
jamie_1alkisg: i know but it though there might be some bright person in here and have a link off the cuff XD13:34
alkisgTrue, but since it's off topic, we can't post it :D13:35
oerhekssure, join ##windows13:35
jamie_1darn you alkisg :P13:35
EriC^^jamie_1: it's very simple, the solution is #*&$(#($&%* *censored*13:35
alkisgThere are many crypto-super windows sysadmins here. All hiding behind an ubuntu mask.13:35
jamie_1rofl XD13:35
EriC^^j/k, seriously though in ##windows they probably know13:36
EriC^^jamie_1: one idea i had, which is a little "last resort" would be to use virtualbox to install it using the hdd as a rawdisk image, that way windows wouldn't know what's going on really13:37
=== xtron is now known as Guest52018
jamie_1alkisg: i know that a large handful here have a large or at least larger knowlege than i do in here... expecially windows and ubuntu interacting... seeing as the last time i used windows was when i swapped from windows 7 i think it was to ubuntu 8.04 XE13:37
jamie_1*XD13:37
jamie_1EriC^^: thats what i was thinking. Thanks for confirming13:37
EriC^^there's probably an easier way, join ##windows :D13:38
jamie_1i might just say... nah screw it ubuntu is enough like i usually do13:38
EriC^^they're friendly there, if it were ##c i'd tell you to forget about it xD13:38
jamie_1EriC^^: oh i know that one... same with ##js13:39
jamie_1just thought ehhh... screw it i have 1tb now might as well do two os... but if its gonna be a huge hassel i go back to working on the site i need to get done13:39
eater9Hi - accented characters are displaying wrong in all my browsers! "ó" looks like "y" and "é" looks like "й"13:40
alkisgeater9: go to view > encoding menu, and select the correct one13:42
EriC^^jamie_1: if you have a cdrom you could use that as the hdd port if you have a usb to sata cable or something13:42
eater9alkisg: in Firefox it's set to Unicode; Chrome does not have an Encoding setting that I can find13:43
eater9alkisg: changing the setting in Firefox doesn't seem to make a difference13:43
alkisgeater9: is it a public url that you can share?13:44
eater9alkisg: here's an example: http://instantwatcher.com/title/8003568413:44
eater9alkisg: it looks like "el patryn del mal" on my browsers13:45

leftyfbJonelethIrenicus: ~/.bashrc is only for your user13:48
JonelethIrenicusleftyfb: ok anytime an application is ran it will see it then?13:48
leftyfbJonelethIrenicus: try it13:48
alkisgeater9: if you copy/paste it, does it display correctly?13:49
alkisg(e.g. in gedit)13:50
eater9alkisg: Yes it does13:51
DArqueBishoppankaj__: there are good console IRC clients like irssi and Weechat.13:51
alkisgeater9: it sounds like a broken font issue then, does it happen in a default install, or did you add some new broken font?13:51
pankaj__Ok13:51
pankaj__alkisg: OK13:52
eater9alkisg: No, I haven't installed any fonts. The browsers are using Ubuntu font, but when I use Ubuntu font in LibreOffice, the characters look correct13:54

EriC^^Aireil: can you maybe manually try grub during the ubuntu times? like use the grub command line to manually put the lines in maybe that gives a clue?16:10

tgm4883g0tcha: did you setup DNS when you setup the static IP address?17:50
g0tchatgm4883: yes, it could work fine, and i updated the OS by downloading the files so it was online17:53
tgm4883g0tcha: what version of ubuntu?17:53
g0tchatgm4883: 16.04 LTS17:54

g0tchatgm4883: #     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN17:55
tgm4883g0tcha: that's the only thing in there?17:56
tgm4883g0tcha: You don't have any DNS servers listed. how did you setup your static IP address?17:56
g0tchatgm4883: yes, the dns servers are set in /etc/networking/interfaces17:56
tgm4883g0tcha: can you pastebin your interfaces file17:56
tgm4883g0tcha: and you mean /etc/network/interfaces right?17:57
tgm4883because /etc/networking/interfaces shouldn't exist17:57
g0tchatgm4883: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/f46666f552c99c03a170917f8fbbdaee17:59
g0tchayes, i meant /etc/network/interfaces18:00
tgm4883g0tcha: the correct name is "dns-nameservers" not "dns-servers"18:00
oerheksPut nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf.d/base and run sudo resolvconf -u18:00
tgm4883oerheks: unnecessary18:00
tgm4883oerheks: he needs to fix his interfaces file18:01
g0tchadamn.. i looked at that like 15 times and i still missed it18:01
oerheksgood find18:01
g0tchawhat confused me is that it worked fine before the reboot18:01
g0tchayeah, its all good18:01
tgm4883g0tcha: my guess is that you got a DHCP address which added the DNS servers. You then set the static IP address but that didn't overwrite the DNS servers until you rebooted18:02
g0tchatgm4883: most likely, yeah18:04
g0tchatgm4883: out of curiosity, what is the best way to restart a network interface with 16.04+ ?18:04

cristian_cthis issue doesn't affect mouse wheel scrolling, oddly20:06

alkisg(also, not upgrading means security issues, so... server with security issues?!)20:20

queskermy ubuntu has vixie cron I think.  can you set the PATH in crontab for all scripts somehow?20:27
naccEriC^^: iirc, you have to remove linux-generic and linux-image-generic as well, in order for the underlyinng package to be removed (and then once /boot is cleaned up, reinstall those metpackages)20:27
Ben64nacc: not necessary20:28
alkisguname -r to see the running kernel, and dpkg --purge all the others... no need to involve metapackages20:28

oerheksZeljko, freeing space is oke, then you would need to boot from a live iso to change partitions, but you don't want to stop your server.20:42

oerheksleftyfb, he already does, with alkisg help20:56

Zeljkoalkisg its done, but as i can see any errors again20:57

alkisgHe has 4 issues, /boot space, apt broken, /home space, and server reboots.Let's at least solve the 2 first, and when his mind gets off those, give him advice for the two laters20:57

Zeljkohttp://dpaste.com/3FSQCBH21:02
alkisgSee also the "ls /boot" there21:03
binarydepthoerhek I need to add 110371 MB to the partition, it's after it as free space21:04
oerheksbinarydepth, as the manual gives: resize.f2fs -t <sectors> /dev/sdXY21:04
Zeljkoalkisg: http://dpaste.com/1W681Y221:04
oerhekswhere secors is the new number of sectors, not the amount of sectors to grow21:04
alkisgZeljko: ok, now run this: sudo apt install -f. If it fails, we need *all* the output, not just the last lines.21:04
binarydepthAnd can I calculate that? there's no way to knwo tha21:04
binarydepthKB -> MB -> GB21:05
Zeljkoalkisg: http://dpaste.com/2EAVK7B21:05
binarydepthoerheks And how can I calculate that? there's no way to know that21:06
alkisgZeljko: run this: sudo apt install linux-image-generic linux-headers linux-headers-generic linux-generic21:07
alkisgIt won't fix the mysql issue,but you do need the metapackages you've removed, which will pull the latest kernel too21:07

alkisgZeljko: 20 GB is too low for a server too, you could give it 200 GB :)21:22
Zeljkoalkisg21:22
leftyfbZeljko: no, mysql is still broken21:22
Zeljkoi have unrealirc server :)21:22
alkisgZeljko: not until you read the mysql bug and do the workarounds from there21:22
alkisgThe /boot and kernels issue was solved, but not the mysql one21:22
tgm4883alkisg: well that depends on the server...21:22
oerheksrtemove ampps, and try again21:22
Ben64Zeljko: wow you run ircd on a server with a year old kernel? enjoy getting hacked21:22
oerheks-t21:22
Ben64probably running ircd as root too21:23
Zeljkonope21:23
Zeljkoircd running from user acc21:23
Zeljkohow to remove dir with files ?21:25
PeyamHo can I remove all folders in my system that have the name eclipse?21:26
rdhrm -rf dir21:26
jeremy31Zeljko, what directory?21:26
Zeljkoof any apps21:27
Peyamrdh, does it delete all files in the system with that name?21:27
rdhno21:27
rdhcurrent working directory21:28
tgm4883Geez that just seems like a good way to break things21:28
rdhif your paranoid, rm -rf ./dir21:28
rdh./ <- ensure current directory21:28
Peyamrdh, ohh sorry I thought it was directed to me. I wan to deleted all folders with a certian name in the system21:28
Ben64Peyam: why21:28
PeyamBen64, just to clean stuff21:28
Ben64sounds like a terrible idea21:29
tgm4883"Just to clean stuff" is probably the worst excuse to do anything on a computer21:29
PeyamBen64, why?21:29
rdhPeyam, Oh,21:29
Zeljkoalkisg: and what to do now with ampps ?21:29
rdhPeyam, you know about wildcards?21:29
Ben64go around and mindlessly delete every folder matching a name? not smart21:29
Peyamtgm4883, I don't think cleaning stuf you dont need is a bad idea21:29
Peyamrdh, no21:29
alkisgZeljko: I don't know what ampps is, I only got involved to help with the /boot and kernels issue...21:29
Ben64how do you know you don't need anything in a folder called eclipse21:30
Zeljkoalkisg thanks for all21:30
binarydepthoerheks Can you help me calculate the sectors_?21:30
rdhPeyam, just careful, and play with it until you really grasp it21:30
alkisgYou're welcome21:30
tgm4883Ben64: +121:30
Zeljkonow i want to set up mysql server21:30
PeyamBen64, I dont use eclipse21:30
Peyamrdh, never gone wrong21:30
Ben64how do you know every folder called eclipse is for eclipse the program21:30
rdhPeyam, http://tldp.org/LDP/GNU-Linux-Tools-Summary/html/x11655.htm21:30
PeyamBen64, it should be21:30
tgm4883Peyam: if you don't use eclipse, then why do you have eclipse folders?21:30
Ben64Peyam: ergo, bad idea21:30
Peyamtgm4883, I used for a while now I'm cheating with intelij idea21:31
tgm4883Peyam: how did you install eclipse? How did you remove it?21:32
Peyamtgm4883, umake21:32
tgm4883Peyam: because using apt is too mainstream?21:33
Peyamtgm4883, becouse I wanting the last release. and wanted to try umake people talked about21:33
Peyamtgm4883, I use 16.0421:34
rdhPeyam, you know, make usually will have an "make uninstall" option.21:35
rdhdepends on the developers, whats left is usually user configuration files.21:36
Peyamrdh, umake --remove ide yes. I just wanted to see if it is left anything of it on my system.21:36
Ben64so do something like 'locate eclipse'21:37
Peyamnever mind. I skip it :_D21:37
rdhPeyam, well, you can look at the Makefile21:37
Peyamyou are right. I see MATLAB named a lot of files and directories "eclipse"21:38
tgm4883Peyam: there are ways to delete everything with eclipse in the name, but nobody here wants to risk having you break your system in some unforseen circumstance21:38
tgm4883well there you go21:38
Peyamyeah you got me there21:38
Peyamreal in your face moment hhh21:38
rdhPeyam, you should still learn wildcards ;)21:47
IhrFusselMy OS is VERY slow at writing files...what could cause this? "echo $(date +%s) > file" takes up to 50ms21:48
Peyamyeah indeed21:51
andrejDoes anyone know where /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00CDMountPoint comes from?  Neither dpkg -S nor apt-file find seem to know it21:51
tgm4883andrej: based on the name, from install maybe?22:00
oerhekslooks like the mount point of your dvd/cdrom https://github.com/allardhoeve/desktop-config/blob/master/modules/apt/files/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00CDMountPoint22:06
oerheksfrom install, i guess, and uncommented afterwards?22:06
Peyamdoes anyone know anybrowser excep firefox and chrome that can enable adblock in private browsing?22:20
lostfilebrave i think22:23
lostfilehttps://brave.com/22:23
MathisenPeyam, opera got it built in also22:24
lostfilewell the brave browser has adblock built in bit i dont know about private browsing22:26
lostfilebut i mean22:26

tripelbre ubuntu touch wifi only on samsung tab2  i found this.   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices/p3110  so does this mean ot works? is this the latest? stable? where do I get it? instructions? Thanks.22:28
IhrFusselNobody got a clue? My local machine only needs 2-3ms to write to a file but my dedi (both Ubuntu 16.04) takes 10-30ms for the same task22:31
andrejtgm4883 - I think you're right. I'm just wondering why many of our machines don't have it :)22:33
_Sym_I got this external samsung ssd drive (T5) and it came with ext-fat on it.  When I goto repartition the drive with fdisk, it wants to make the start sector at 65535.  That seems wrong to me.  If I only want a single ext4 parition on that external drive, would it not be ok to just make the primary parition start at 2048s?22:36
qisHi, can you recommend me a good backports-like PPA for Ubuntu 16.04? I need recent versions of common libraries.22:41
qiszlib, libpng, libjpeg-turbo, etc.22:41
tgm4883qis: no. PPAs are by definition unsupported. Why do you need recent version of common libraries22:44
qistgm4883: Because I use more recent (but already old) macros and functions. png_const_bytep, crc32_z, etc.22:48
qisI don't need support. I need a trustworthy source.22:48
Jordan_UIhrFussel: Do you have backgrounds writes going on on your "dedi"? (What does "dedi" mean here)?22:49
frontrowalexQuestion: has anybody else lost the ability to detect HDMI displays after a recent full apt upgrade in 16.04?22:50
frontrowalexVGA still works fine22:50
IhrFusselJordan_U, dedicated server meaning no need to share my resources with others (like VPS) ... I tried rebooting the machine and stopped the web server but it still takes 10-30ms to write a simple timestamp to a file22:50
gbellinozI've done a log of Googling on this but am still stuck - how do I stop apparmor from spamming my logs with ALLOWED messages?22:55
Jordan_UIhrFussel: How are you measuring the time taken?22:55
IhrFusselWith the time command ... I created a S.M.A.R.T report ... can anyone tell me if those values are bad/critical? https://pastebin.com/v5rz1LT622:56
Jordan_UIhrFussel: Timing the execution of echo?22:58
IhrFusselJordan_U, yes and it reports 2ms on my local machine, so I wonder why it's 10-30 on my dedi22:59
Jordan_UIhrFussel: I would expect it to be 0ms for both, as I get on my machine.23:00
frostschutzIhrFussel, run a long selftest on it, see if it passes23:02
Jordan_UIhrFussel: Do you use any non-standard mount options?23:03
IhrFusselI use noatime23:03
IhrFusselJordan_U, noatime can't cause this right?23:10
binarydepthI need help installing grub in chroot. I was asked by the kernel installation.23:10
binarydepthI'm installing using debootstrap23:10
ignoohello running ubuntu-gnome 16.04.1 AMD64 have an issue with compiling a file because ./config command does not work..maybe i'm doing something wrong ?23:15
ignoo*issue with compiling a package23:16
ignooor maybe missing something?23:16
ignooI already did: sudo apt install autoconf and sudo apt install libtool-bin23:17
ignooanyone? please understand i'm not so experienced with ubuntu-gnome..so i supposed ./configure to work, but it says: bash: ./configure: No such file or directory.23:20
ignoowich is weird cause configure file is just there.23:21
rdhignoo, what software are you trying to compile23:22
ignoois that relevant? well torsocks .23:23
ignoo^_^23:23
rdhyea23:23
ignoojust wanted to try that to proxy applications for better security.23:23
rdhlol im not judging, i use tails from time to time23:24
ignooye but tails is from flashdrive i just need to use for common applications i use daily..different task.23:24
rdhignoo, https://github.com/dgoulet/torsocks  <- the bit where it says... "If you are compiling it from the git repository, run ./autogen.sh before the configure script."23:24
ignoo#!/bin/sh23:25
ignooset -x23:25
ignooif [ ! -e config ]; then23:25
ignoomkdir config23:25
ignoofi23:25
ignooautoreconf -i23:25
Jordan_UIhrFussel: noatime will prevent writes while reading, and won't have any effect writing so that's not the problem. odirect definitely would.23:26
rdhignoo, mmhm23:26
ignooeheh23:26
ignoosorry.23:26
rdhREADME's and INSTALL's are your friends23:26
ignooi should have pastbinned that sorry for being uneducated.23:27
ignoo:P23:27
Jordan_Ubinarydepth: Are /dev/, /proc/, and /sys/ mounted within the chroot?23:29
ignoook it works now. i dunno how I could have been that dumb to have ignored that.. may be because i stayied some time away from linux ;)23:29
ignoowell thank you rdh, laters23:30
