=== sysrage_ is now known as sysrage [00:48] hi, why does gparted show me a different size than nautilus with the properties of /dev/sda1 on a virtual machine (virtualbox) ? [00:59] Hi guys, I wanted to know if there are plans to update ubuntu 16.04 to use netatalk 3.X version ... soonish [01:00] How can roll back ubuntu 17.10 to 16.04, Im having bunch of problems...before None!!! [01:04] StumpDumb, I would recommend backing up your required data and re-installing 16.04 https://askubuntu.com/questions/49869/how-to-roll-back-ubuntu-to-a-previous-version [01:05] reinstall +1 [01:05] vlouvet_, i don't see a newer netatalk in launchpad https://launchpad.net/netatalk you could build it yourself.. http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Install_Netatalk_3.1.11_on_Ubuntu_16.04_Xenial [01:06] oerheks, I have compiled it myself, but installing an apt package (or dear god a snap) would be so much easier to do for people not comfortable with configure/make/makeinstall [01:07] the 17.10 version uses netatalk 2.6.X so I doubt 16.04 will ever get 3.x support [01:08] vlouvet_, i see it is stable for some *years* now, http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/ [01:08] baked in of course, I know it is able to run once manually installed [01:08] we could request a SRU [01:08] !sru [01:08] Stable Release Update information is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates [01:08] It puzzled me to see that 3.x is stable for years and not in the official repos, since the pre-requisite libraries are in the official repos [01:09] SRUs are only for for pulling in a fix from a later Ubuntu release [01:09] all my tweaks will be lost.... [01:09] !info netatalk [01:09] netatalk (source: netatalk): AppleTalk user binaries. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.2.6-1 (artful), package size 747 kB, installed size 3984 kB [01:09] StumpDumb, yes but at least you will have a fully working system again [01:09] https://mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg4507244.html [01:10] probably because netatalk is pulled in from Debian [01:10] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netatalk/+bug/1363654 [01:10] Launchpad bug 1363654 in netatalk (Ubuntu) "Upgrade netatalk to version 3.x" [Wishlist,Triaged] [01:10] " the issue there is that some parts of the code have unspecified license and authors could not be reached to clarify the situation." [01:11] I think More testing needs to be done Before a LTS release is Released. I don't like the changes in functionality either, not to happy where this new version is heded. [01:11] Thanks....P.Oed!!! [01:11] oerheks, the ppa for 3.X is https://launchpad.net/~ali-asad-lotia/+archive/ubuntu/netatalk-stable thanks! [01:12] ... I would not upgrade carte-blance without making backups or testing with the livecd first :-) live and learn === Conflict_ is now known as Conflict [01:40] oerheks, it appears that the upstream bug has been resolved as of Jan 2017, so perhaps there is hope in getting 3.x into (debian and) Ubuntu some day? https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=751121 [01:40] Debian bug 751121 in src:netatalk "Please fix "FIXME" statements in copyright file" [Serious,Fixed] [01:43] vlouvet_: no, the upstream issue over etc/afpd/fce_api.c copyright hasn't been resolved [01:48] vlouvet_: debian/copyright just says it's assumed the reference to COPYRIGHT is sufficient since no explicit licence grant for that file has been made [01:54] well... with any luck, we will see Samba take over as the backup destination for all Mac computers in the near future with Samba 4.8 release... afpd always seemed more trouble than just straight SMB [02:04] hi everyone I need a quick help. I'm using cli based computer (raw TTY xubuntu) and I use everything without X server. I want to configure my irssi to give me sound notiffication when ppl msg me or highlighted my nick. Is that possible to do in cli? also printf '\a' does not give any sound but my music player cmus is working very well [02:05] !irssi [02:05] irssi is a terminal based IRC client. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi for help. See also !screen [02:06] hi! [02:07] ppl sent me here from irssi channel. my real problem is that printf '\a' does not give any sound. what file I need to deal with? [02:07] !cowsay [02:08] Hi, just tried out ubuntu:16.04's docker image but cannot install anything [02:08] i got https://la.wentropy.com/m1Wy [02:08] This might be a stupid question, but why can't I drag and drop from Artful Nautilus? [02:11] Google says it's the new FlowBox view feature in nautilus but doesn't say how to disable it, and I can't find a config setting in nautlius for that [02:13] ah, its the icon view mode [02:19] amosbird, what happens if you try apt instead of apt-get ? sudo comes with Ubuntu doesn't it though? In which case you shouldn't need to install sudo via apt-get [02:41] What's the most painless way to get e2fsprogs >= 1.43 on 16.04? [02:44] @roothorick, Download the .deb package file from Ubuntu's site and install? [02:45] er what? Am I gonna steal a package from zesty or something? [02:46] lol no, you can browse the repo on the browser, and grab the .deb package [02:46] roothorick: https://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/e2fsprogs [02:47] its not in the repo? [02:47] Use this Ubuntu generic URL to search for packages [02:47] https://packages.ubuntu.com/ [02:47] exactly. Latest for Xenial is 1.42.13. Too old. [02:47] @ponyrider, exactly :) thanks [02:53] I'm wondering if I should just give up and wipe that machine. That install has been through a lot [02:54] I can not access vimeo.com from my location. Can solve my problem ? [02:54] my os ubuntu [02:55] I'm having the mayb-related problem of plymouth freezing, preventing lightdm from booting, [02:55] no clue why. [02:56] Nothing in any log anywhere presents any explanation, other than the only contents of boot.log being e2fsck complaining it doesn't recognize one of the feature flags on the root filesystem [02:57] I would think if that was plymouth's issue, the system would outright not boot. But I can SSH in and see that everything else is up and running [02:57] roothorick: maybe "systemd-analyze critical-chain" can help [02:57] roothorick: it might show where any big delays are [02:57] "Bootup is not yet finished. Please try again later." [02:57] machine has been up for 34min at this point [02:57] roothorick: you can also use "systemd-analyze blame" [02:57] Same message. [02:58] roothorick: in which case "systemctl status" and look at failed/pending jobs [02:59] hm. Shows 9 "queued" jobs, nothing failed, I don't see any reference to pending [02:59] sytemctl --failed [03:00] "0 loaded units listed." I assume that means it doesn't think anything failed [03:02] roothorick: look in journalctl -b0 [03:05] It's repeatedly trying and failing to start lightdm. Only message from lightdm is a warning about not being able to find the accounts service. From a bit of googling, apparently that's harmless [03:05] oh right. It's timing out each time [03:06] from pstree / ps I can see that lightdm has invoked "plymouth quit" which appears to be where things get hung [03:15] hi [03:17] I just remembered how this install started off. I think I should put the thing out of its misery. [03:26] how do I download the latest version of quotatool, I've tried apt-get install quota quotatool and according to apt it's the most recent. I'm looking at http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/en/man1/quota.1.html and it's saying there's a new version available, aquota, but how do I get the binary of it. I've tried downloading from that manpage, compiled, make, make installed it, but it's still giving me [03:27] the //aquota.user on /dev/sda1 [/] error. [03:27] screw it [03:27] found it [03:28] zerothis: there is no aquota; the tool is "quota" - the data files are "aquota.*" [03:28] grrr, he gone [03:35] I have dropbox running in 17.10 but the indicator is missing. It was here yesterday. Google suggested "dropbox stop && dbus-launch dropbox start" but no luck. === r0Oter is now known as r00ter === luxio is now known as zer0cool [04:14] hi all :) can i boot and use ubuntu sever without installing to my hdd? [04:17] hdon_: yes, via a USB stick or similar [04:18] hggdh: thanks :) [04:42] morning alkisg [04:45] " the process runs out of its maximum allowed open sockets as determined by the operating system. " https://github.com/voc/voctomix/issues/172 [04:45] how can I tell what the max is? [04:50] CarlFK: cat /proc/sys/fs/nr_open [04:51] CarlFK: well that's filehandles, but sockets occupy a filehandle [04:51] thanks - [04:51] yeah, sounds like nofiles [04:52] cat /proc/sys/fs/nr_open 1048576 [04:52] that much? [04:53] yep that's the default [04:56] Hello. I am a programmer, not having experience with system adminitration. I need help with partitions. I have virtual machine and a few days ago I increased partition size. I can now admin it - can someone help me with your time and interactive help please ? I know I can spend hours and days, understanding how it works, but I won't need it in my daylife, so I just asking if someone can help me with that. I also know that I can remove entire system [04:56] and create new, but... I hope there is another choise. :) Thank you. [04:57] !partition | Greshnikk start here [04:57] Greshnikk start here: For help with partitioning a new install see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition | For partitioning programs, see !GParted (recommended) or !PartitionManager. Other partitioning topics include !fstab, !home, and !swap [04:58] @lotuspsychje - yes, I already tried reading about gparted.. I have only ssh, so I can use parted soft only. But it's not too simple. I mean.. there are some sort of "LVM"... and... physical devs.. I think I screwed something alread :( [04:58] Greshnikk: best way to get your issue solved, is to ask your specific question here in channel, the better you explain, the better volunteers can try help [04:59] Greshnikk: tell us where you stuck at [05:00] CarlFK: IIRC, the default is 1024 for open files (in Ubuntu) [05:01] @lotuspsychje - sure, I forgot about the question. The question is: "sudo fdisk" shows me "Disk /dev/sda: 20GiB" and "/dev/sda1 487M, /dev/sda2 19.5G, /dev/sda5 19.5G". But "pvs" shows only "/dev/sda5 PSize=9.52g". How can I increase it to 20g ? [05:01] hggdh: thanks. 1024 seems to be where things stopped in trying to duplicate this [05:02] Greshnikk: there are 2 things you need to worry about: partitions and file systems [05:02] CarlFK: you can always check by running ulimit-n (or ulimit -a for all limits) [05:03] Greshnikk: partitions allocate big chunks of the disk to file systems. file systems then allocate small chunks to files [05:03] Greshnikk: make sure everything on the LVM is unmounted, resize sda5 to the new disk size, then tell LVM that the PV has grown. make sure you understand all those steps before doing anything though :P [05:04] Greshnikk: you may have made the partition bigger, but the file system is still setup to only use the amount it was given when it was created. you need to grow it. [05:06] hggdh: ulimit-n - bingo. thank you [05:13] @CarlFK - ok, I am listening very carefully. Emm.. let me write down your answer in a notepad.. hold on a sec. Got it. Ok. All I did before was. "1. download parted, open it and use following commands: https://pastebin.com/e1Lx9sHJ" [05:14] @CarlFK - I don't know what I've done..just was following blind google's advices. But I wonder if I've screwed up or not. Before I will follow your recommendations. [05:14] Greshnikk: you are 1/2 way there. [05:16] Triffid_Hunter: you may be better at this than I. I know the concept, but not sure the tools to "tell LVM that the PV has grown" [05:17] Greshnikk: have some more reading: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/zesty/man8/resize2fs.8.html [05:18] @CarlFK - ok, give me some time then.. reading.. [05:18] I have read about that command... but couldn't use it properly, having tons of errors. But not actually with resize2fs.. but.. other command.. can't remember it.. :( [05:19] Greshnikk: if sda5 has already been grown you may simply need to pvresize /dev/sda5, maybe do something with volume groups (haven't used lvm in a long while), assign the new space with lvresize then resize filesystem [05:19] Greshnikk: resize2fs is useless until the underlying block device has grown [05:19] if you're using LVM, there's quite a lot of abstraction between that and the disk partition [05:20] personally I've gone to BTRFS which moves most LVM-like features to the filesystem layer rather than the block layer, hence why I'm rusty with LVM [05:21] I've used "lvextend -L +10g /dev/mapper/price--vg-root" and failed. I remember it. [05:21] I've been told that I have to use lvextend before resize2fs [05:21] Greshnikk: the pv has to extend first, otherwise the lv has no spare space to use [05:22] @Triffid_Hunter - I've already extended /dev/sda5.. isn't it enough ? [05:23] Greshnikk: no. you're only looking at two layers out of about 5 layers of abstraction. 1) extend partition (done) 2) extend pv. 3) (not sure if needed) poke vg to update spare space 4) extend lv (can't happen before #2) 5) extend FS (can't happen before #4) [05:25] Greshnikk: you can't skip straight from 1) to 4), LVM don't work like that :P [05:25] @Triffid_Hunter, ok.. give me some time to hunt some triffids.. I mean to read articles about extending pv in google. [05:32] OK.. I've done "pvresize /dev/sda5" and it did something.. hmm... "lvextend -L+10G /dev/mapper/price--vg-root" also DID SOMETHING... I think... I am already there... mmm [05:33] almost.. not already [05:34] resize2fs /dev/mapper/price--vg-root has increased my space.. hurraaa ))) I did it guys. Much appreciate to your help ! )) Gonna write down all the steps for the future :) [05:34] ~Triffid_Hunter++ [05:35] Oh.. there is no karma bot ? :( [05:35] Greshnikk: :D [05:41] gross. I just noticed I have flashplugin-installer on my system. Should I remove it, would I need it? or is it too late to bother removing it? [05:43] I just removed it. It had no dependents and was painless. [05:48] Good morning all! [05:53] Lope: most sites use html5 now, so flash starving a silent death [05:54] Lope: chromium uses pepperflash, not sure if thats any better === albech1 is now known as albech [05:59] how can I set a virtual screen resolution? [05:59] i need a 16:9 screen but dont have one [06:00] generic, which graphics card? [06:00] generic, better yet, what's the output of xrandr? [06:01] nvidia [06:01] I'm not sure that nvidia properly supports xrandr, so I can't comment... [06:01] dvi-3 connected 1024x768 [06:01] lotuspsychje: thanks. I see Flash is EOL in 2020 http://www.zdnet.com/article/adobe-to-say-rest-in-peace-to-flash-in-2020/ [06:02] Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1024 x 768, maximum 16384 x 16384 [06:02] DVI-I-3 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 304mm x 228mm 1024x768 60.00*+ 75.03 70.07 [06:02] !paste [06:02] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [06:02] alkisg: just 2 lines ... [06:03] xrandr is more, maybe people here will need it in order to assist you, I'm not using the nvidia binary driver so I can't comment [06:03] https://paste.ubuntu.com/26069850/ [06:03] set it in xorg.conf ? [06:04] btw, how are you planning to use that resolution? [06:04] As panning space in your main monitor? [06:04] you could pan across the screen in the old days [06:04] It's the same now too, but I think nvidia has nvidia-settings to configure that [06:05] Now you can even set it in the run time with a simple xrandr command, but I'm not sure nvidia properly supports xrandr... [06:05] there used to be a key shortcut to switch resolutions [06:05] You don't want a new resolution, you want panning [06:05] man xrandr ==> --panning [06:06] alkisg: nice [06:06] It's possible that that won't work with binary drivers, but only with the open source ones. Try it... [06:09] works fine :) [06:09] lets see if i can get back to no-panning though [06:16] I would kinda like to change partition swap to file swap, but with 1hdd/sdd setup, that is impossible right? [06:17] !swap | omenius [06:17] omenius: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info [06:17] omenius: of course it's possible, why wouldn't it? [06:18] increasing the partition size that is boot/os, that part I think is not very easy with 1 media [06:19] omenius: playing with partitions requires booting from a live cd anyway, well unless you're using lvm or something fancy [06:20] yep, just not sure if I'm bit too lazy to make usb to gain like 4Gb since I still need some swap [06:20] GB* [06:21] You don't happen to have a separate home, do you? [06:21] nope :/ [06:21] Difficult to do it without a usb stick then, yeah [06:28] hggdh: sorry did you mean i should use a usb stick as my root filesystem? [06:29] what i meant to ask was: can i use ubuntu server without installing on any disk other than a tmpfs/ramfs ? [06:33] hdon_: #ubuntu-server is more appropriate for server discussions, but AFAIK you need to reboot after installing from the ubuntu server cd, so it's difficult to do it in ram [06:33] ah thanks alkisg [06:33] You can press alt+ctrl+f2 and get a shell, but of course no services would be installed etc [06:33] hdon_: why, what prohibits you from installing even just on a file or on a vm? [06:34] alkisg: in this case the machine in question has no permanent storage whatsoever [06:34] hdon_: you can use a VM in ram [06:35] alkisg: sorry, i think i misunderstood. what do you mean install to VM? [06:35] hdon_: how much ram do you have? [06:35] alkisg: 256GB [06:36] OK, for example, you can create a tmpfs and use virtualbox or kvm or whatever, and install ubuntu-server in that tmpfs [06:36] As long as you don't reboot the host, you can reboot the VM and use it however you like [06:37] what system will i run virtualbox from? [06:37] i mean, do you recommend any bootable images to get me up and running with virtualbox? [06:37] What OS are you running in those 256 GB, e.g. ubuntu? windows? [06:37] only whatever i can burn to a DVD. it has no permanent storage. [06:38] Ehm, can it boot from a usb stick instead? [06:38] You can use that as permanent storage... [06:38] mmm yeah... guess i'll have to look around the house and see if i have any spares [06:39] So, an example. Suppose you boot from an ubuntu desktop live cd. Then you run: apt install kvm, and you have the program you need for virtualization [06:39] (virtualbox requires rebooting, afaik, so it's not suitable unless you include it in a custom dvd) [06:40] Then with kvm you can run e.g. kvm -cdrom /path/to/ubuntu-server.iso -hda /path/to/disk-in-ram.raw [06:40] That "server" then is rebootable and everything, it doesn't know it has no permanent storage behind it [06:44] Hi I'm giving my roommate a laptop with the latest Ubuntu on it. He has always used Windows, what can I do to ease the transition for him? Games, very cool things to pre-install? [06:44] I see it already has Libre Office which is great. [06:46] anonnumberanon: what does he need it _for_? most people just need a browser and an office suit...

I need help with connecting an Ubuntu 16.04 machine to an Active Directory domain [08:02] Amijai, use Centrifydc https://www.centrify.com/express/linux-unix/download/ [08:04] Mr_Pan: I have it set up. worked perfectly on ubuntu 14.04, but on 16.04 it sometimes fails to authenticate some of the users. Should i delete or change any files in their $HOME? [08:23] Amijai: did you even look to find out "why" it failed to authenticate????? [08:24] hey where are the waryland logs?

[09:02] Yes, if you run ssh -X [09:02] ssh-X? [09:02] what is it? [09:03] alkisg: help me [09:03] plz [09:03] mitmf: you are in a pc with ubuntu [09:03] Then you run ssh -X another-pc-with-ubuntu [09:03] yes [09:03] hey all [09:03] And you login there. If you then run e.g. gedit, it will appear in the first pc. [09:04] but how ssh know user and ip? [09:05] alkisg: ? [09:05] mitmf: ssh knows because you connect from an ip, using a user account [09:05] mitmf what are you trying to do? [09:06] i want to use GUI like web browser wih ssh. [09:06] for what purpose? [09:06] what is the end goal? [09:06] for eye [09:06] :( [09:06] you are on linux i take it... [09:07] mitmf, teamviewer is the way :D [09:07] * wyseguy seconds Mr_Pan [09:07] how about ssh x? [09:07] -x? [09:07] ssh -x? [09:07] ssh user@192.168.8.8 -X? [09:07] it is ok? [09:08] ssh -X user@ip [09:08] ssh -X user..... [09:08] It's ok. More info: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/PortForwarding#Forwarding_GUI_Programs [09:10] I feel more at home now that i have xcode installed on my mac, installed brew and iterm2, then downloaded the ubuntu mono font and installed apptivate and created a command-shift-t shortcut for iterm2 :p [09:10] alkisg: but i login, but there is no GNU. [09:10] mitmf: now run firefox [09:10] Type firefox and it will be displayed in your local pc [09:11] Error: GDK_BACKEND does not match available displays [09:11] If you want a full "desktop", instead of only one program, you can use this: https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php [09:12] firefox —> Error: GDK_BACKEND does not match available displays alkisg what’s wrong? [09:12] mitmf: can you run `xterm`? [09:12] xterm? [09:12] what is it? [09:13] alkisg: how about using vncserver? [09:13] Does it open in your local pc? [09:13] Firefox over ssh -X runs fine here. [09:14] mitmf: theres is vnc, x2go, ssh -X, teamviewer, xrdp and a lot of others. To help you select, you need to tell us how are you going to use that. [09:15] i just use GUI app like web browser [09:15] because i have raspberryp i [09:15] pi [09:15] alkisg: [09:16] And why do you need remote? [09:17] You have one desktop ubuntu pc and a raspberry pi, and you want to connect from the desktop to raspberry? [09:17] because raspberry pi is in other room, but i m in my room [09:17] yes alkisg correct [09:17] OK, then use epoptes [09:17] !epoptes [09:17] epoptes.org [09:17] epoptes? [09:17] You install epoptes server in your main pc, and epoptes-client to your rapsberry [09:17] And then you can double click to get access, or restart it etc [09:19] alkisg, teamviewer ? [09:19] Mr_Pan: doesn't have an arm version afaik [09:19] ...does it? [09:20] Hmm, it does have a "host for armf", I don't know if that's the standard one [09:20] Anyway, epoptes is fine and it's in the repositories [09:20] alkisg, https://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/linux/#downloadAdditionalDownloads [09:21] It only takes 1 mb ram, extremely light [09:21] And it supports wol, logoff, broadcast, view etc [09:21] A lot more than teamviewer [09:21] For Ubuntu machines on LAN, it's way better [09:21] alkisg: thanks i will try epoptes [09:21] np [09:22] epoptes is encrypted? [09:22] The commands are encrypted, yes [09:22] oh good thanks then epoptes is better than vncserver? [09:22] alkisg, epoptes run over internet ? [09:23] Mr_Pan: yes, but underneath it's using vnc for broadcast/monitor, so it's slower than teamviewer over WAN [09:23] VNC is faster in LAN, but slower over WAN [09:23] alkisg, ok thaks [09:23] np [09:23] *thanks === Gadjit is now known as Apparat === Apparat is now known as Gadjit === Gadjit is now known as Mechanismus [10:18] alkisg: i log in raspberry pi with vnc client, but when i log out vnc client, i want to run vnc server countuously. this is possilbe? [10:19] mitmf: is that while using epoptes? Or separate vnc? [10:20] i use only tightvncserver because tightvncserver is installed on raspberry pi. [10:20] already [10:20] alkisg: [10:21] Do you mean that when you logout, you want to be able to connect from the desktop, and login remotely? [10:21] I.e. vnc to the login screen? [10:22] i want to excute some program and then i wan to log out for sleeping but next day i want to log in raspberry again. so i want to see running program. [10:22] this is possible? [10:22] If you log out, the programs close [10:22] Why do you want to log out instead of locking the screen? [10:23] saving eletricity fee [10:24] Do you mean power off? Or log out? [10:24] Log out doesn't save electricity [10:25] i will power off laptop, but i want raspberry pi to run continously [10:25] Don't log off raspberry pi then [10:25] It will continue to run [10:26] can i poweroff laptop? [10:26] then raspberry pi will be log off? [10:26] No [10:26] When you power off the laptop, then raspberry pi will continue to run [10:27] oh [10:27] good [10:27] thanks [10:27] :) [10:28] np [10:31] i just close connection of vnc client, i can reconnect it without ending [10:31] :) [10:35] hey guys, is it possible to configure an interface in /etc/network/interfaces and use "iface ens192 inet dhcp" and configure the interface NOT to auto configure dns and a gateway? [10:36] I already have a ens160 with static gateway and dns settings [10:37] uh yeah that's called using a static address [10:38] and if you in fact have successfully set a static address you'll have to restate what the "actual" problem is [10:46] tatertots: well I want the ip address to be dynamically assigned [10:46] I should have stated that, excuse me [10:46] I just want an ip, nothing more [10:46] don't we all [10:53] I feel really dirty when I have to set up my machine to a static IP. [11:01] Can anyone suggest a channel where I might receive assistance with Bash scripting? Thanks~ [11:01] I suspect here isn't really... the place. [11:04] /j #bash [11:06] good morning [11:06] how to install refind on emmc acer es1-132 ? [11:06] Howdy folks [11:08] Oh you know what, I did do that earlier, but only before realising I was on ESPER and then had trouble overcoming a SASL connection problem, heh. Thanks.
