| Osmodivs | adrian_1908, both HDD are UEFI (Ubuntu 16.04 and Windows 10) but I can't get to the GRUB menu when I press Shift key... | 00:00 |

| Osmodivs | In the BIOS I have the ubuntu HDD to bbot first | 00:01 |

| adrian_1908 | Hmm, no idea then. You'd indeed want to select the HDD via the BIOS menu and that should be it normally. | 00:01 |
| Bashing-om | Osmodivs: EFI it is the escap[e key grub looks for . Spam it .. only a 3 second window of oportunity . | 00:01 |
| adrian_1908 | My food is done, good luck. | 00:02 |

| varesa | Hi | 00:39 |
| varesa | Where can I find older kernel releases for 16.04? | 00:40 |
| leftyfb | varesa: why? | 00:41 |
| half-potato | so my trackpad is being detected as a mouse yet it still has multitouch capabilities. I've listened to the events using sudo libinput-debug-events --device=/dev/input/event18 and it seems like something in the kernel is handling my trackpad because it only outputs preprocessed outputs like buttons being pressed, scrolling, and mouse movement | 00:42 |
| varesa | leftyfb: I have to setup a virtual machine that matches exactly a running production server | 00:42 |
| half-potato | as a result I can't configure my trackpad to disable tap to click because libinput isn't handling whether tap to click is enabled. It seems like the input module is | 00:42 |
| half-potato | my laptop is an hp elitebook x360 g2 | 00:43 |
| varesa | I'm trying to install 4.4.0-72-generic | 00:44 |
| varesa | oh I see, I think I just had the wrong syntax for apt-get... | 00:45 |
| half-potato | i2c_hid i2c-ALP0016:00: error in i2c_hid_init_report size:137 / ret_size:2 [ 14.957380] input: ALP0016:00 044E:1215 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:15.1/i2c_designware.1/i2c-7/i2c-ALP0016:00/0018:044E:1215.0002/input/input26 [ 14.957520] hid-generic 0018:044E:1215.0002: input,hidraw1: I2C HID v1.00 Mouse [ALP0016:00 044E:1215] on i2c-ALP0016:00 | 00:45 |

| saganbyte | Hello there, i was trying to get my wireless hardware toggle to work and I 1) reset the BIOS setting by pressing F9 and then F10 2) Update the kernel selection 3) Updated my nvidia settings by clicking around | 01:45 |
| marcisb | sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/bin What does -p flag means? | 01:45 |
| saganbyte | The result is, I m stuck with a 640x480 display | 01:45 |
| saganbyte | Is there something I can do to get my back my original resolution? xrandr --verbose only displays 640x480 too | 01:46 |
| saganbyte | marcisb: it means create any intemediary directory if it doesnt exist | 01:46 |
| leftyfb | marcisb: it means create the parent directories if they don't exist. You can use "man mkdir" to read more detail | 01:46 |
| leftyfb | marcisb: why are you meaking that directory? | 01:46 |
| drowze | @marcisb -p tells mkdir to create all the dirs in the path if needed (and do not raise an error if any does not exist) | 01:46 |
| t0no6a | marcisb :lookout /usr/local/bin already exist , be careful | 01:48 |
| kostkon | saganbyte, open your nvidia settings and try changing it from there | 01:50 |
| saganbyte | kostkon: is there a command to open nvidia settings? Earlier i had messed within the Additional Drivers | 01:52 |
| kostkon | saganbyte, try typing "nvidia" and hitting tab | 01:53 |
| saganbyte | kostkon: the only thing tab completion gave me was nvidia-detector. The output of that was `non` | 01:55 |
| saganbyte | `none` | 01:55 |
| half-potato | I've isolated the problem it seems that alps.c does not have an entry for recognizing my trackpad | 01:56 |
| kostkon | saganbyte, what about "nv" and then tab | 01:56 |
| saganbyte | kostkon: nvidia-detector and nvm_prompt_info | 01:56 |
| saganbyte | In the additional drivers window I see a bunch of Nvidia binary and legacy drivers but it seems to be stuck to one particular one.. Nouveau display driver from xserver-xord-video.. | 01:58 |
| saganbyte | kostkon: | 01:58 |
| kostkon | saganbyte, right you are using nouveau then | 01:58 |
| saganbyte | kostkon: if i try changing it, it sticks to nouveau.. i ll try restarting | 01:59 |
| kostkon | saganbyte, the open source driver not the one from nvidia | 01:59 |
| kostkon | saganbyte, ok | 01:59 |
| saganbyte | kostkon: do you think i need to change anythig in the grub menu? | 02:00 |
| saganbyte | kostkon: or the bios | 02:00 |
| kostkon | saganbyte, i guess no | 02:00 |

| Vysty | Brasero and K3B are coughing up attitude. | 02:27 |
| Affabulation | Not brasero | 02:27 |
| Vysty | Using 16.04 | 02:27 |
| Affabulation | terminal is the bestr | 02:27 |
| Vysty | Affabulation: Can you walk me through burning a DVD using the terminal? | 02:28 |
| Affabulation | why not use a usb though | 02:28 |
| Vysty | We're going to have that, too. | 02:29 |
| Affabulation | Cant u just use the usb lol | 02:29 |
| Vysty | Going to a wedding in Japan and they've requested that we burn a DVD of the video. I guess in Japan no one can think creatively and you gotta use what they say. | 02:29 |
| Vysty | What I said: "They can just download it off my google drive and play it with VLC." | 02:30 |
| Vysty | My wife: "You do not understand how Japan works." | 02:30 |
| Vysty | Me: "Fuck them. I'll do it if they're that useless." | 02:30 |
| Vysty | My wife: "Nope. You do not understand how Japan works." | 02:30 |
| Vysty | So I need a playable DVD. | 02:31 |
| Affabulation | Uh Japan is more advance than other countries lol im sure | 02:31 |
| Affabulation | thy have better options | 02:31 |
| Affabulation | does Japan use ntfc or pal lol | 02:31 |
| Vysty | My Japanese wife just explained to me today that many Japanese still don't know how to use computers. | 02:31 |
| Vysty | Not quite as advanced as you think. | 02:31 |
| Vysty | Regardless, it doesn't matter: I need a playable DVD. | 02:31 |

| mmazing | logs say "no sda5/boot/efi/efi found" or something similar | 02:44 |
| mmazing | any ideas? | 02:44 |
| Affabulation | Just use a live cd boot. Into it | 02:46 |
| Affabulation | Mount the boot partition and install it again | 02:46 |
| Affabulation | grub that is | 02:46 |
| mmazing | grub-install ? | 02:46 |
| Affabulation | I mean I personally dont use grub but yea | 02:47 |
| mmazing | what do you use? | 02:47 |
| Affabulation | efi stub lol | 02:47 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: What is the original problem you're trying to solve? | 02:47 |
| mmazing | i had a 1gb regular hard drive on my laptop, installed a 500gb SSD and installed windows 10, and then moved my existing ubuntu partition over after resizing | 02:48 |
| Affabulation | LOl | 02:49 |
| Affabulation | No wonder | 02:49 |
| mmazing | it's EFI boot | 02:49 |
| mmazing | yes, people still need to occasionally use windows unfortunately | 02:49 |
| Affabulation | you do realize windows probably override the efi partition | 02:49 |
| mmazing | i do not realize that | 02:49 |
| mmazing | i've had it working in the past | 02:49 |
| Affabulation | In the past you probably did not have a efi system I assume | 02:50 |
| mmazing | it's the same laptop, it was using EFI to boot into windows boot manager or ubuntu | 02:50 |
| Cosmosnaut | anybody experience really slow steam downloads? havent gotten over 1 mb/s... | 02:50 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: Did you copy over the EFI System Partition that Ubuntu had prepared? | 02:50 |
| mmazing | i' | 02:50 |
| Cosmosnaut | new to ubunto, have tried dnsmasq | 02:51 |
| mmazing | i'm not sure, ill plug that drive back in and check it out | 02:51 |
| Affabulation | Bruh the easiest solution is boot from ubuntu live mount everything add refined ppa | 02:51 |
| Affabulation | and boom easy peasy | 02:51 |
| Cosmosnaut | or best study material on terminal, apt? | 02:56 |
| t0no6a | Cosmonaut ; ? | 02:56 |
| Cosmosnaut | with allergies | 02:57 |
| mmazing | okie dokie ... copied over the old EFI partition, will run boot-repair now and see if it still pukes | 02:59 |
| mmazing | ^^ Jordan_U | 02:59 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: Wait. I don't recommend boot repair. Also, to be clear, I hope you don't now have two EFI System Partitions. | 03:02 |
| mmazing | i erased the one that windows created and copied the old one over it | 03:02 |
| mmazing | have not run boot-repair yet | 03:03 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: How do you expect Windows to boot then? | 03:04 |
| mmazing | well, i was hoping that boot-repair would fix that, has before :\ | 03:04 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: I don't know if boot-repair can do that. | 03:04 |
| Affabulation | lololol | 03:04 |
| Affabulation | LOL | 03:04 |
| Affabulation | ahahah | 03:05 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: I think you're depending too much on boot repair doing things rather than trying to understand things yourself. | 03:05 |
| mmazing | probably so, i haven't ever had a problem with it before, however | 03:05 |
| Jordan_U | Affabulation: That's the opposite of helpful. Please think more carefully about your future posts. | 03:05 |
| mmazing | i've never seen it freeze up | 03:06 |
| Affabulation | jordan I gave him the best solution he ignored it | 03:06 |
| Jordan_U | Affabulation: I don't personally agree that installing rEFInd and hoping that it automagically fixes things without understanding is a good idea either. | 03:07 |
| Affabulation | No it wont magically fix anything but it will make it easier to detect and select each boot since he wants a magic automatic fix | 03:08 |
| mmazing | i think i might just blow away all the windows stuff, fix the ubuntu boot, and then leave unallocated space to install windows into again | 03:08 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: I don't know how to get Windows booting again from having deleted its bootloader on UEFI. ##windows might be able to help you with that. | 03:08 |
| mmazing | does that sound feasible? | 03:08 |
| fluvvell | Is anybody good at top menu Ubuntu gconf / unity adustments ? I have two screens, different resolution and my left menu encroaches the right | 03:09 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: You'll need to "fix" the Ubuntu bootloader twice, as Windows will make its bootloader the default when you install it (though Ubuntu will still be an option in your boot firmware, if you know how to get to the boot selection menu). | 03:09 |
| mmazing | how would you have gone about this in the first place? EFI always throws me for a loop | 03:10 |
| Affabulation | lol the best option for you is to start anew and install windows first and then linux | 03:13 |
| mmazing | i would prefer to use my existing linux partition if possible | 03:14 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: I'm not exactly sure what your situation was, but I think I would have moved the Ubuntu partition to the ssd from a LiveUSB, then (still from the LiveUSB) mounted the Ubuntu partition to /mnt/, mounted the EFI System Partition on the SSD to /mnt/boot/efi/ then run "sudo grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --boot-directory=/mnt/boot/". | 03:14 |
| Jordan_U | mmazing: Unfortunately I need to leave now. | 03:15 |
| mmazing | thanks, im essentially still at that step now, so i will try that | 03:15 |
| t0no6a | mmazing : dude, seriously, blow away everything then install windshit and then Ubuntu/debian/gentoo/minix whatever you want | 03:16 |

| Nilesh_ | alkisg: https://pastebin.com/AtWk4rM8 | 06:28 |
| alkisg | Nilesh_: seems fine, so you must have some local version that overrides this | 06:30 |
| Nilesh_ | alkisg: no.. i dont have any local version | 06:54 |
| Nilesh_ | alkisg: i thing GOMP_4.0 is the hard requirement | 06:54 |
| alkisg | Nilesh_: $ strings /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgomp.so.1 | grep GOMP_4 | 06:56 |
| alkisg | GOMP_4.0 | 06:56 |
| alkisg | GOMP_4.0.1 | 06:56 |
| alkisg | It does have that requirement | 06:56 |
| Nilesh_ | alkisg: ok.... | 06:58 |
| * Nilesh_ wondering why this error | 06:59 | |
| Nilesh_ | I just tried strings /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgomp.so.1 | grep GOMP_4 command and is unable to find GOMP_4 | 07:01 |
| Nilesh_ | alkisg: | 07:01 |
| alkisg | Nilesh_: strings /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgomp.so.1 | grep GOMP_[0-9] | 07:03 |
| alkisg | What's the output of that? | 07:03 |
| Nilesh_ | max i could see is GOMP_3 | 07:03 |
| Nilesh_ | alkisg: | 07:03 |
| alkisg | Hmm yeah then you need a newer version | 07:03 |
| Nilesh_ | how can I get that on ubuntu 14.04 | 07:03 |
| Nilesh_ | alkisg: | 07:04 |
| alkisg | Nilesh_: I'm not sure, I think it will depend on a specific gcc version, so... | 07:06 |
| Nilesh_ | ok | 07:06 |
| alkisg | 16.04 does support gomp_4 though | 07:06 |
| alkisg | So if you were planning to upgrade anyway, now it's a good time :) | 07:06 |
| Nilesh_ | yeah ..my app works fine on 16.04 | 07:06 |
| alkisg | If its your own app and you compiled it in 16.04, try compiling it in 14.04 | 07:07 |
| Nilesh_ | but then i use some 3rd party libs and that uses GOMP | 07:08 |
| Nilesh_ | so stuck | 07:08 |

| cool_dude | hey guys i have ubuntu server on gcp and i have file with root access only and to access root i have to run sudo as i connect to user that is created by gcp and i am using filezilla to connect so i can’t run commands so i want to give same access and ownership as root to other user and want root as well | 07:46 |
| Ben64 | cool_dude: "ls -l thefile" also, what is gcp | 07:50 |
| cool_dude | google cloud platfrom | 07:52 |
| cool_dude | but i want to give access to all files that have root ownership | 07:52 |
| ducasse | do you really need that, or do you only need access to a subset of files? | 07:53 |
| cool_dude | problem is that i installed web panel and too many files have ownership of root so i can’t use edit them using filezilla | 07:57 |

| slingamn | the desktop and server kernels are the same now, right? | 08:13 |
| ducasse | yes | 08:14 |
| slingamn | if you install the server image and then install the desktop packages from apt, are there any significant differences between that and a system installed from the desktop image? | 08:16 |
| ducasse | slingamn: the server image installs some server-related stuff | 08:17 |
| slingamn | makes sense | 08:18 |
| ducasse | you can use the mini.iso or the lubuntu 'alternate' image (just deselect the lubuntu stuff) if you want a more customized desktop install | 08:19 |
| ducasse | (the mini.iso does not support uefi) | 08:19 |
| slingamn | but the lubuntu alternate image does? | 08:20 |
| ducasse | yes | 08:20 |
| slingamn | nice | 08:20 |
| slingamn | yeah i used the server image because of the uefi support | 08:21 |
| slingamn | maybe when bionic comes out, i'll use the lubuntu alternate | 08:21 |
| slingamn | or maybe mini.iso will have uefi support by then | 08:21 |

| kettlecooked | I have an Ubuntu 12.04.4 server at our office. It's beeping with system speaker intermittently. 2-3 second spaced beeps, maybe 20-50 in count, goes on for a bit, stops for hours (or minutes) comes back, goes again etc. Any idea how to find out what's causing it? | 15:07 |
| kettlecooked | I've checked system temps and they are ok. 400 gigabyte free hard drive space. | 15:07 |
| leftyfb | puxavida: out of curiosity, why did you upgrade from a version supported till 2021 to one that will be out of support in 2 months? | 15:07 |
| leftyfb | kettlecooked: your issue is that of hardware, not the OS | 15:07 |
| puxavida | that did it. recovery mode with networking. Now it gets to ... trying to start network manager - unknown group power and it has several error messages trying to grep /etc/resolve.conf | 15:07 |
| strive | akik: LOL, no I meant ctrl+alt, lmao | 15:08 |
| puxavida | the upgrade must have hosed someting on the file system | 15:08 |
| kettlecooked | leftyfb, how do you conclude that? not saying you're wrong, just so I understand your reasoning | 15:08 |
| leftyfb | kettlecooked: beeping is hardware error codes | 15:08 |
| kettlecooked | you're not thinking about system boot up hardware error beeps? cause the system is running fine, except random beeping | 15:09 |
| puxavida | leftyfb, test system - acer iconia tab with touch - trying to see how far i can upgrade it and still get touch - it keeps failing with upgrades | 15:10 |
| leftyfb | kettlecooked: I would start by contacting the hardware manufacturer. | 15:10 |
| puxavida | will stick with 16.04 and try 18.04 when it comes out | 15:10 |
| kettlecooked | hmm.. well maybe the motherboard maker then? I built this box myself | 15:11 |
| leftyfb | sure | 15:11 |
| kettlecooked | system has been up for 309 days. might try a simple reboot... :D | 15:14 |
| nicomachus | kettlecooked: you can probably search the motherboard specs and find beep codes. otherwise, run memtest and a SMART check, monitor CPU temps and freq, fan speeds, make sure everything's ok. | 15:15 |
| kettlecooked | I don't get though why you guys are talking about beep codes - the beeping is intermittent, not like bootup POST problem beep stuff (like the ones indicating problem with RAM for example) - this is a running working system | 15:16 |
| leftyfb | kettlecooked: beeping is not typically an OS level troubleshooting method. It's almost always hardware. Unless you've got some application on there written to beep when things happen. I've never heard of such an application which means most standard/supported linux services don't do this. | 15:17 |
| genii | Systems will also beep when you hold a key down too long | 15:17 |
| anddam | how can I type a double angular bracket in Xorg? | 15:35 |
| anddam | more in general is there a GUI to the currently loaded keymap? | 15:36 |

| leftyfb | puxavida: 15.10 is not supported | 15:44 |
| puxavida | actually 17.10 | 15:45 |
| puxavida | then next march 18.04 lts arrives, right? When does beta start for 18.04? | 15:47 |

| bmatt | nicomachus: have you used it personally? and if so, did you like it? | 16:38 |
| nicomachus | bmatt: yes I use it daily for Messenger, Telegram, Whatsapp, Slack, Gitter, and Discord. | 16:39 |
| nicomachus | bmatt: it works fine. Does the job. basically just puts them all into one application that's a browser-but-not-a-browser. There are probably better programs but idk what they are. | 16:39 |
| ash_workz | nacc: but shouldn't it like... time out or something? instead of zip right through the last lines? | 16:39 |
| ducasse | bmatt: you can also use bitlbee, and then access fb through an irc client. back when i tested it you needed a plugin, but it worked. | 16:40 |
| nacc | ash_workz: I don't konw what you mean by zip. Apt will try to download all index files and then emits any warningns or errors at the end. | 16:40 |
| nacc | ash_workz: and a DNS failure on your client is typically pretty fast | 16:40 |
| ash_workz | nacc: right, by zip I mean the messages come really fast | 16:40 |
| bmatt | ducasse: i thought about that. I've used bitlbee a lot, but I figured it would get in the way of sending/receiving pictures through Messenger. That may be client specific, but either way, I use Irssi mostly | 16:40 |
| bmatt | nicomachus: I really never understood browser based applications :x | 16:40 |
| nacc | ash_workz: the relative speed of error messages is ... not really anything | 16:41 |

| ducasse | bmatt: i use weechat and honestly never tested images - i just cared about the text. | 16:42 |
| bmatt | ducasse: pictures are paramount for me ='( | 16:43 |
| nacc | ash_workz: i mean, you said you did a curl -- you can do curl, wget, etc. | 16:45 |
| nacc | ash_workz: if your DNS is flaky, though, it means ... it's flaky | 16:45 |
| ash_workz | nacc: where are you supposed to output the file? | 16:46 |

| ohlolz | tgm4883: it is because one has can answer my question correctly, either here or the debian channel. less online. | 17:42 |

| Ertain | Hello everyone. I have a small Ubuntu server (17.04) which I'm using as a clock-in kiosk for a local charity. We can't get ethernet to the device, so we have to make do with wifi. A problem I have is that it just can't get an IP address. And I'm not entirely certain why. | 18:31 |
| Ertain | While it's true I'm using an out-of-kernel module just to power the wifi adapter, I can't think of any other reason why it won't work. | 18:31 |
| Menzador | Ertain - What module? What's the output of [ lspci -vnn | grep -i network ]? | 18:37 |
| Ertain | I'm using the "8192cu" module. | 18:37 |
| Ertain | As for output of that command, I only got the information for the ethernet connection, not the wireless connection. | 18:38 |
| UukGoblin | hello, on Lubuntu 17.10, with kernel 4.13.0-16-generic, I can't get 5.1 audio to work on HDMI. It's the new Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio driver thing introduced in 4.11 | 18:40 |
| UukGoblin | stereo audio is fine | 18:40 |
| Ertain | If it helps, the wireless adapter can scan for access points. | 18:40 |
| UukGoblin | also, pulseaudio doesn't seem to work (stereo audio only works on plain alsa) | 18:40 |
| UukGoblin | (it's a Cherrytrail Intel Atom CPU) | 18:43 |
| idbentley | I'm trying to configure my /etc/network/interfaces file on ubuntu 16.04 so that the connection will always occur on a certain IP and gateway over ethernet. This was working well in previous versions of linux when the network interface was predictably called eth0, but after the upgrade to 16.04 the if is now called ens32. How can I predict what the interface will be called in the future? | 18:45 |
| TJ- | idbentley: the new interface naming scheme is designed to be predictable; it's based on the interface hardware location | 18:46 |
| idbentley | So I can assume into the future this will always be called ens32? | 18:47 |
| idbentley | @TJ- | 18:48 |
| TJ- | idbentley: "en" == EtherNet, "s32" indicates "slot 32", but I'd have expected a "pXX" (port xx) in between | 18:49 |
| TJ- | idbentley: is the interface on PCI? if not, that might explain no "pXX" in there | 18:49 |
| TJ- | idbentley: e.g. on this system with a PCI network port on PCI bus 2, slot 0, I have "enp2s0" | 18:51 |
| idbentley | TJ-: I'm not sure, it's not my rack - I'm just given access to the Virtual Machine | 18:51 |
| UukGoblin | is the Intel LPE Audio driver for Cherrytrail even meant to work with 5.1? | 18:54 |
| TJ- | idbentley: ahhh, so a virtual device, that might be it. it doesn't sound like it's presented as a PCI device but you can check with "lspci -nn" | 18:54 |
| idbentley | TJ-: Thanks for the help! | 18:58 |
| idbentley | TJ-: I have to go through this upgrade process for another machine | 18:59 |
| TJ- | idbentley: the 'old' scheme ethX relied on the devices always being detected in the same order OR a udev rule that matched on the interface MAC | 18:59 |
| idbentley | and I'd prefer avoiding having hte network interface blow up again, is there a way I can ask the machine what the interface is going to be named before I upgradE? | 18:59 |
| TJ- | idbentley: hmmm, that's a good question. Try this search: "dmesg | grep 'renamed from ' " | 19:00 |
| idbentley | TJ- "[ 2.032879] e1000 0000:02:00.0 ens32: renamed from eth0" | 19:01 |
| akik | idbentley: you can go back to the previous naming scheme by adding net.ifnames=0 kernel parameter | 19:01 |
| theablestman | menzador | 19:01 |
| TJ- | idbentley: that may give you something similar to this: "sky2 0000:02:00.0 enp2s0: renamed from eth0" so you can see the predictable name, but I'm not sure you'd see similar in a system that is using the kernel's name (eth0) | 19:01 |
| idbentley | akik: I | 19:02 |
| idbentley | 'd rather use the new predictable names after reading more about them | 19:02 |
| akik | idbentley: don't be scared when your usb network adapter name is a long hex string :) | 19:04 |
| TJ- | long hex strings are the MAC address | 19:04 |
| akik | no, the "predictable" interface naming actually creates crazy interface names | 19:05 |
| TJ- | In what way? | 19:05 |
| TJ- | I know virtual Ethernet devices get random names, but physical interfaces are predictable | 19:05 |
| akik | for example: wlx00212f398e53 | 19:06 |
| akik | i've seen this happen on usb network devices | 19:06 |
| akik | wlan & ethernet | 19:07 |
| theablestman | hello anyone know how to install ubuntustudio over ubuntu 14.04lts? | 19:08 |
| TJ- | Yes, "wl" == WireLess, "x" == eXternal, and the MAC address is 00:21:2f:39:8e:53 | 19:09 |
| akik | but i meant it is the name of the interface | 19:10 |
| TJ- | akik: right, that's how the name is built for external devices. The MAC address is unique, and the point of the naming scheme is make the name predictable | 19:10 |
| TJ- | akik: knowing where the interface is connected the name can be predicted BEFORE the device is connected (if you know the bus/slot (PCI) or MAC address (USB) ) | 19:11 |
| akik | might be usable on a machine with lots of network interfaces but of no use on a simple machine | 19:12 |
| akik | ethernet = eth0, wireless = wlan0 | 19:12 |
| TJ- | iproute2 package does allow aliases, e.g. "ip link set enp2s0 alias eth0" but I don't think the other tools will make use of it; weird. | 19:24 |

| akik | what are ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-standard packages? they don't contain any real payload, just a changelog and copyright | 20:49 |
| Romantic | Hello, is there a way to access the ubuntu clipboard from terminal? Xsel/Xclip are only accessing the X clipboard. | 20:57 |
| aloo_shu | akik I think they are meta packages intended to pull diffrent sets of packages in the earlyer stages of different installs. a look at these pkgs' dependencies should confirm this | 21:04 |
| akik | aloo_shu: i saw those packages update, and was curious why i have both ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-standard. thanks for the explanation | 21:10 |
| aloo_shu | akik: a hopefully intelligent guess it was rather, but you're welcome | 21:12 |
| ducasse | Romantic: xsel can access the clipboard, see the man page | 21:13 |
| puxavida | Romantic, not sure of your environment. I can copy from text editor or browser then use shift-ctl-v to paste or copy highlight in terminal and copy with shift-ctl-c | 21:13 |
| akik | This package depends on all of the packages in the Ubuntu minimal system, | 21:15 |
| akik | that is a functional command-line system with the following capabilities: | 21:15 |
| Romantic | I'm not looking for a way to paste, but to pipe the content of the clipboard to another tool, a la pbpaste on osx. | 21:15 |
| Romantic | looking at it ducasse | 21:15 |
| Romantic | `xsel -o -b` tx | 21:16 |
| ecdhe | What is the best supported means of allowing a network mounted home directory for ubuntu desktop? | 21:18 |
| YADW1 | Hello! Maybe it's not the right place to ask (if so please don't kill me, redirect me to a more appropriate support channel instead :D), but I'm having a lot of issues trying to play a stream from stdin with Mplayer from terminal. | 21:21 |
| YADW1 | I tried googling for some solutions, but nothing worked apparently | 21:22 |
| TJ- | YADW1: what's the source writing to stdin? | 21:26 |
| TJ- | YADW1: usually you'd do "sourceprogram | mplayer - | 21:27 |
| TJ- | YADW1: the "-" means read from stdin | 21:27 |
| YADW1 | It's adb screenrecord over USB. It works perfectly when I pipe it to ffplay or VLC | 21:27 |
| TJ- | YADW1: see "man mplayer" | 21:28 |
| YADW1 | I really don't mean to say that it's too long to read, but it's kind of... you know, 10055 lines long. I'll give it a quick look and let you know in 3-4 hours I guess. | 21:32 |
| TJ- | YADW1: first line of the SYNOPIS: "mplayer [options] [file|URL|playlist|-]" | 21:33 |
| TJ- | YADW1: convention is that if a program can read from stdin as well a file the symbol is "-" where a filename would be | 21:34 |
| YADW1 | That was quick. Yes, of course I did put a - at the end | 21:35 |
| TJ- | YADW1: well that's how to have it read stdin. what issues are you having? | 21:35 |
| on3pk | So, as you may have guessed, I'm really new to linux. I got this RFID reader from China. How do I know which device in /dev/ it relates too? | 21:35 |
| TJ- | on3pk: is it USB? | 21:36 |
| on3pk | Yes | 21:36 |
| on3pk | Some code on GitHub seems to indicate it should be /dev/ttyUSB0 but that device isn't found | 21:37 |
| TJ- | on3pk: should show up in sysfs as /sys/class/nfc/nfcX | 21:38 |
| YADW1 | TJ-: This is the command I used: "adb shell screenrecord --output-format=h264 - | mplayer -demuxer h264es -". I end up having this error | 21:38 |
| YADW1 | "[h264 @ 0xb6d92fe0]No start code is found. | 21:38 |
| YADW1 | [h264 @ 0xb6d92fe0]Error splitting the input into NAL units. | 21:38 |
| YADW1 | Error while decoding frame!" | 21:38 |
| on3pk | it doesn't appear there is a nfc folder available in /sys/class | 21:39 |
| TJ- | YADW1: that's something you'd need to ask the mencoder/mplayer folks; looks like a container encoding issue | 21:39 |
| TJ- | on3pk: check what dmesg reports when the device is connected to begin with. | 21:39 |
| YADW1 | Um, alright, thank you. Is there an irc channel? | 21:40 |
| TJ- | on3pk: e.g. on my system it's a USB device shown with "lsusb": "Bus 006 Device 002: ID 04cc:2533 ST-Ericsson NFC device (PN533)" | 21:40 |
| ducasse | YADW1: #mplayer sounds promising :) | 21:41 |
| on3pk | This looks relevant: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25963354/ | 21:41 |
| TJ- | on3pk: It presents as a keyboard then | 21:43 |
| YADW1 | ducasse: It--it's just I... I didn't want to, err, be too... obvious, yeah! | 21:43 |
| YADW1 | (Thank you of course :)) | 21:43 |
| ducasse | YADW1: no problem :) | 21:44 |
| TJ- | on3pk: use "lsusb" to identify it's bus/device numbers, then you may find a character device link with "ls -latr /dev/char/" -- the last listed device will be something like "189:641 -> ../bus/usb/006/002" | 21:44 |
| ducasse | !alis | YADW1 in case you didn't know | 21:44 |
| ubottu | YADW1 in case you didn't know: Alis is an IRC service to help you find channels. For help on using it, see "/msg Alis help list" or ask in #freenode. Example usage: "/msg Alis list http" | 21:44 |
| on3pk | oh ok | 21:45 |
| TJ- | on3pk: if it's presenting as a keyboard it may be read-only though | 21:45 |
| YADW1 | ducasse:That looks quite handy, actually. I'll give it a try next time! | 21:45 |
| toymachine | Any devs working on thunderbolt3 + egpu? If so I'd like to help out. | 21:48 |
| toymachine | Not sure where to start. | 21:48 |
| on3pk | I don't mind read only. I'm just a little annoyed it doesn't seem to be working | 21:50 |
| alexas | i want to reprogram my foor switch connected through usb to a custom key, right now by default it is programmed as F2, I have found this manual to do it http://h6o6.com/2013/03/configure-a-usb-foot-pedal-on-linux/ but in my ubuntu 17.10 i can't found specific locations to files that author mentioned, however I was able to locate my foot switch with 'lsusb' command, that is as far as I got now | 21:52 |
| alexas | foot* | 21:52 |
| puxavida | in ubuntu 16.04 (unity), is there a way to put workspace switcher in top bar? I've looked in settings/tweak tool/web search and don't see a way. or have a panel at the bottom with switcher?? | 21:56 |
| TJ- | alexas: if you're using start off identifying the device with "for n in /sys/class/input/input*; do echo $n = $(cat $n/name); done " | 21:58 |
| puxavida | i do see the switcher in the launcher, but I have the launcher auto-hide - I guess I'll need to super to view launcher then select switcher applet | 22:00 |
| dbugger | Hello everyone | 22:00 |
| dbugger | I have a weird issue with GRUB. When I click on "advanced options for ubuntu" I see something called "Low latency". What is that?? | 22:00 |
| akik | i asked earlier about this strange message on my laptop's syslog "[drm] HPD interrupt storm detected on connector DP-1". it can be suppressed by echoing N to /sys/module/drm_kms_helper/parameters/poll | 22:00 |
| akik | otherwise it was outputing the message every 2 seconds | 22:01 |
| TJ- | dbugger: we have 2 variations of the standard kernels; -generic and -lowlatency. lowlatency is better for desktops where the user doesn't expect to be kept waiting | 22:01 |
| akik | hmm actually it's every two minutes, not two seconds | 22:01 |
| CashDash123 | whats the package name fore makeinfo and m4? | 22:03 |
| akik | TJ-: isn't that always? :) | 22:03 |
| CashDash123 | *for | 22:04 |
| TJ- | !info m4 | 22:04 |
| ubottu | m4 (source: m4): macro processing language. In component main, is optional. Version 1.4.18-1 (artful), package size 191 kB, installed size 342 kB | 22:05 |
| TJ- | !texinfo | CashDash123 | 22:05 |
| TJ- | !info texinfo | CashDash123 | 22:05 |
| ubottu | CashDash123: texinfo (source: texinfo): Documentation system for on-line information and printed output. In component universe, is optional. Version 6.4.90.dfsg.1-1build1 (artful), package size 734 kB, installed size 6876 kB | 22:05 |
| dbugger | TJ-, does not expect to be waiting? What does that mean? | 22:06 |
| dedze | Hi can someone help me please? | 22:06 |
| dbugger | Can you give me a "for instance"? | 22:06 |
| CashDash123 | TJ-, ubottu Thanks | 22:06 |
| TJ- | dbugger: processes that want low latency, such as for sound (e.g. JACK) | 22:07 |
| * CashDash123 also hopes to see fan art of Tux urinating on the Ubuntu logo | 22:07 | |
| TJ- | dbugger: also, general responsiveness for GUI with heavy I/O workloads | 22:07 |
| dedze | How can I know if uid=0 and uid=1000 are me?? | 22:08 |
| dedze | In the auth log | 22:08 |
| TJ- | dedze: "id" | 22:09 |
| dedze | Hi TJ- | 22:09 |
| alexas | TJ-: I have consulted the following tutorial and found my event id of the pedal, and I followed the rest of the instruction and installed the program specified but then in my text editor it is still the key that it was: https://hillelcoren.com/2016/03/01/using-a-foot-pedal-for-ctrl-and-alt-modifiers-on-ubuntu/ | 22:10 |
| dedze | TJ-: id=1000(ussop) gid=1000(ussop) groups=1000(ussop),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),29(audio),30(dip),46(plugdev),113(lpadmin),128(sambashare) | 22:11 |
| dedze | Who are all these users??? | 22:11 |
| alexas | TJ-: ok sorry i misunderstood your message, I think I found the device input | 22:11 |
| TJ- | dedze: that's your user's ID and group menberships | 22:11 |
| dedze | TJ-: I'm always anxious about being hacked | 22:12 |
| dedze | TJ-: pam_unix(cron:session): session opened for user root by (uid=0) | 22:12 |
| dedze | Is that suspicious? | 22:12 |
| TJ- | alexas: i've not seen evrouter in use before. Were you able to configure the ~/.evrouterrc for your device's values? | 22:12 |
| TJ- | dedze: no; the cron system service does that to run time-based jobs | 22:13 |
| dedze | TJ-: I was typing on click and I'm almost sure that a right click happened for a sec, like I saw the little Paste, copy box | 22:13 |
| alexas | TJ-: yes, but without the effect apparently, I am now can't see how I can kill this program in order to restart it to see if it will work with another values | 22:13 |
| dedze | Typing on skype* sorry | 22:13 |
| dedze | Could it be a hacker remotely controling my laptop? | 22:14 |
| TJ- | alexas: I'm wondering if the lack of a response is due to the GUI moving from the event (libev) sub-system to libinput | 22:15 |
| TJ- | alexas: so it may require something done via libinput | 22:15 |
| Affabulation | lol | 22:15 |
| alexas | aha ok I found how to kill it | 22:16 |
| alexas | TJ-: am affarid I understood only half of your analysis sir | 22:17 |
| TJ- | alexas: in the last few years the input device sub-system has been moving from libev (events) to libinput. The solution you linked to relies on libev (evrouter). If your system is using libinput then evrouter will not work | 22:19 |
| alexas | TJ-: am having the ubuntu 17.10 if that helps | 22:20 |
| puxavida | CashDash123, dpkg -S /path/to/file | 22:23 |
| CashDash123 | puxavida, I'm just going to ue bash | 22:24 |

| adac | When is firefox 57 available for 16.04, anyone knows? | 22:26 |
| kostkon | adac, soon | 22:29 |
| adac | cool! | 22:29 |
| dedze | How can I figure out if my routeur is infected? | 22:31 |
| TJ- | alexas: I'm not finding much information that suggests libinput can be configured the same way. You need to confirm whether your system is using libinput or libev. On 17.10 there's a good chance it's not even using Xorg because by default it is set to use Gnome/Wayland with libinput. | 22:31 |
| snadge | where is firefox quantum!? :P | 22:33 |
| snadge | i expect an update in the update channel.. in 50 nanoseconds | 22:33 |
| snadge | .. its late :P | 22:33 |
| Pazooza | Why in 17.10 I have to do an xhost si and start a program with sudo like synaptic package manager. Never had to do that before in privious versions. | 22:36 |
| TJ- | Pazooza: "Wayland" - that project's developers decided that it wasn't sure so prevent it | 22:37 |

| Jonii | I got Ubuntu 17.10 | 22:44 |

| Jonii | Like, display it's in | 22:44 |
| Jonii | Figured it out | 22:47 |
| alexas | how can I configure caps lock as Ctrl in tty terminal, in GUI it works but not in tty | 22:48 |
| Jonii | It was pretty intuitive spot, lay out all windows and then just drag it. Though it was a bit bugged, after dragging window layout would display it wrong until you got out of window layout thing | 22:48 |
