| stephen101 | Hey guys I live booted on 17 Ubuntu and no issues. | 00:09 |
|---|---|---|
| stephen101 | Both cores show working in system monitor. | 00:10 |
| stephen101 | Even my WiFi working haha | 00:11 |
| stephen101 | Wtf is the difference between 16 and 17? | 00:11 |
| bazhang | Ubuntu 17.10 (Artful Aardvark) release notes can be found here: https://ubottu.com/y/Artful stephen101 , and please no cursing here | 00:15 |
| stephen101 | Thanks. But why would I have processor issues with 16 v. 17? | 00:15 |
| stephen101 | Power, WiFi and CPU issues. | 00:16 |
| bazhang | stephen101, you'd need to specify more clearly | 00:16 |
| stephen101 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/26158204/ | 00:17 |
| stephen101 | Biggest out of those issues it was saying "Processor context corrupt" | 00:18 |
| stephen101 | I guess I am going to do a fresh format and install 17. | 00:19 |
| stephen101 | Though will have to get used to the new interface. | 00:19 |
| Ben64 | 16.04 is supported until 2021, i recommend that | 00:19 |
| stephen101 | But its not working with my PC correctly. I can't use WiFi, CPU has core issues, and there is random power issues saying my laptop has critical low battery though its plugged in. | 00:21 |
| stephen101 | I tried every solution provided earlier nothing made a change. | 00:21 |
| Ben64 | use the hwe to bring 16.04 to 17.10's kernel | 00:21 |
| Ben64 | still gets you supported until 2021, and has the newer kernel and stuff | 00:21 |
| stephen101 | So you saying 17 is like beta? | 00:22 |
| bazhang | stephen101, there are two 17's | 00:22 |
| bazhang | neither are beta | 00:22 |
| Ben64 | well there is no "17" there is 17.04 and 17.10. both releases are not LTS versions. LTS versions are supported for 5 years. Non-LTS versions are supported for 9 months | 00:23 |
| bazhang | 17.10 is the currently latest release stephen101 | 00:23 |
| Ben64 | 17.04 loses support next month, 17.10 loses support in July | 00:23 |
| stephen101 | Ya the version I grabbed is 17.10 | 00:25 |
| stephen101 | I mean worst case I can just revert is 6 months. | 00:26 |
| bazhang | stephen101, there are no downgrades | 00:27 |
| bazhang | stephen101, the next LTS is 18.04 , in april of next year | 00:28 |
| stephen101 | I can just upgrade then :-) | 00:28 |
| bazhang | stephen101, yes, thats right | 00:28 |
| stephen101 | In the mean time I am not rocking a system that is unstable. Lol | 00:29 |
| stephen101 | I spent hours trying to stabilize it. Nadda. | 00:30 |
| stephen101 | 17.10 here we come XD | 00:30 |
| stephen101 | I still wonder what they did different on the kernel, they need to apply it to 16 lol | 00:32 |
| Ben64 | like i said, 17.10's kernel is already available in 16.04 | 00:33 |
| stephen101 | Its not harm though. It was a fresh install | 00:33 |
| Ben64 | not sure what that means | 00:34 |
| stephen101 | Meaning I just got the PC. I installed Ubuntu dual with windows 10. | 00:34 |
| Ben64 | ok? | 00:34 |
| stephen101 | Problem for me is, I expect a os to generally be fully functional out the box, 16 was not least for this laptop. | 00:35 |
| stephen101 | I have it running on my other laptop without any issues. | 00:36 |
| Ben64 | Well windows isn't fully functional out of the box. And it's still not "16" it's 16.04. And you could have installed the HWE kernel in 16.04 | 00:37 |
| stephen101 | But I have never spent a day on and off researching how to get it to work properly on a windows install lol. | 00:38 |
| stephen101 | Or other Ubuntu installs... | 00:38 |
| Ben64 | pretty easy though, just install newer kernel | 00:38 |
| Ben64 | doesn't require a day of research | 00:39 |
| stephen101 | Ya but nobody earlier even suggested that lol. We went though command after command and paste bin after paste bin lol | 00:39 |
| stephen101 | Not that I didn't appreciate the help but nothing worked. | 00:40 |
| stephen101 | And they were convinced it was hw related not software. | 00:40 |
| stephen101 | Apparently I am not alone. | 00:47 |
| stephen101 | https://communities.intel.com/thread/115968 | 00:47 |
| stephen101 | Fedora gave me same errors as Ubuntu 16. And this guy has same processor but Fedora. | 00:48 |
| realies | how do you change the boot options menu to stay for 1 second instead of 15ish? | 01:00 |
| Ben64 | realies: change 'GRUB_TIMEOUT' in /etc/default/grub | 01:02 |
| realies | Ben64, thanks | 01:02 |
| realies | also, im getting amdgpu_init to crash... | 01:03 |
| realies | is it possible to boot without that driver? | 01:03 |
| * realies managed to boot in recovery mode | 01:03 | |
| realies | Ben64, it seems its' read only in that mode | 01:04 |
| Ben64 | mount -o remount,rw /dev/null / | 01:05 |
| realies | do i have to "reload" grub settings after editing the timeout? | 01:07 |
| krytarik | realies: Yes, "sudo update-grub" | 01:14 |
| realies | cool | 01:16 |
| realies | modified the network settings via the gui | 01:16 |
| realies | and it seems they are not stored in etc/network/interfaces | 01:16 |
| realies | any clues where do i find them? | 01:16 |
| realies | nmtui :) | 01:20 |
| realies | Ben64, still takes 25 seconds in the grub menu | 01:23 |
| Bashing-om | realies: Waiting on networking (??) . what does ' systemd-analyze blame ' relate in the boot process ? | 01:26 |
| realies | what? | 01:26 |
| Bashing-om | realies: run terminal command ' systemd-analyze blame ' to see the times in the boot process . | 01:27 |
| realies | 7.542s NetworkManager-wait-online.service | 01:28 |
| realies | im talking about the grub boot menu | 01:28 |
| Barones | running packettracer on bash returns nothing, but running /opt/pt/bin/PacketTracer7 starts cisco packet tracer normally | 01:35 |

| snkcld | on ubuntu 17.10, where are the wayland logs? | 02:13 |
| Kazooie | Hi. I've been handed a laptop this evening with Ubuntu 14.04 installed on it. I'm trying to upgrade it to Ubuntu 17.10 but none of the servers can be found when running `apt update`. Any ideas on how to force an update to artful? | 02:13 |
| nicomachus | Kazooie: if you're going that far, probably best to just backup the /home folder and do a fresh install of 17.10 | 02:16 |
| Bashing-om | Kazooie: Proprietary drivers reverted .' sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade ; sudo do-release-upgrade '.\ | 02:16 |
| stephen102 | Could always install from USB. Gives option to save data. | 02:19 |
| mentalita | hey I have some custom actions in caja (thunar is my default) and it asks me for sudo pass when I want to perform the action, but in the terminal (if I didn't run caja through terminal nothing is displayed)...how can I overcome the issue? | 02:21 |
| jrabbit | snkcld: are they not in /var/log ? | 02:30 |

| SemiNus | hi | 02:38 |
| SemiNus | please I need help | 02:38 |
| SemiNus | I just copied 10 GB from my local drive to my hard drive | 02:38 |
| SemiNus | erm, I meant: to my external hard drive | 02:38 |
| SemiNus | after I verified that all data has been successfully transfered to the external drive, I deleted the files from the hard drive in my computer | 02:39 |
| SemiNus | then the computer had some issues, shutting it down did not work, and I had to unplug it | 02:39 |
| SemiNus | however, after rebooting, all the files on the external hard drive were gone | 02:39 |
| SemiNus | I guess the files are still on the external hard drive as they have been copied | 02:40 |
| SemiNus | however I cannot see them | 02:40 |
| SemiNus | what can I do in order to recover them? | 02:40 |

| programo | Hi I have a problem with my wifi device drivers for Ubuntu 14.04 | 04:09 |
| programo | The enable wifi option does not show up | 04:10 |
| programo | How can I resolve this issue | 04:10 |
| programo | ? | 04:10 |
| bjrohan | Hello. I have a new Dell xps 15, nvidia 1050 and I can not seem to get a few things corrected. 1st, the machine won't shut down. in the gui trying to shutdown, it gets to the logo, then just hangs. If I then press power, the machine appears to power down, but the next day when I try to start it up, the battery is dead | 04:13 |
| bjrohan | and the battery should last much longer off than 16 hours. it lasts when I boot and shut off in Windows | 04:13 |
| bjrohan | I have this issue with both the Nvidia 384 driver and the open source nouveau driver | 04:14 |
| Jordan_U | bjrohan: Do you have the same problem if you use "systemctl poweroff" to shutdown? | 04:24 |
| Jordan_U | bjrohan: Until you get this properly fixed, know that for most laptops if you hold the power button down for a long time, around 10 seconds, it will force power off the machine. | 04:26 |
| Jordan_U | bjrohan: This bug sounds similar but not quite the same as what you're describing, and is also on an XPS 15: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1659623 . Looks like a enabling proposed: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed and installing the proposed kernel will fix the bug, as presumably will just waiting for the package to graduate from -proposed to a standard update. | 04:30 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1659623 in linux (Ubuntu) "Shutdown/reboot hang on Dell XPS 15 9550 BIOS 1.2.18+" [Medium,Fix committed] | 04:30 |
| bjrohan | Jordan_U, so in cli enter systemctl poweroff | 04:31 |
| Jordan_U | bjrohan: Actually, don't bother testing that since this is likely a known bug (and for this bug I would not expect using "systemctl poweroff" to change anything). | 04:32 |
| Jordan_U | programo: Can you test wireless from an Ubuntu 16.04 liveUSB? Any particular reason you're using 14.04 instead of 16.04? | 04:35 |
| bjrohan | Hmm I have a quite newer kernel and BIOS than the reported bug. BIOS 1.5 and kernel 4.13 | 04:37 |
| bjrohan | FWIW | 04:37 |
| Ben64 | bjrohan: i'd do this if i were you http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html | 04:38 |
| bjrohan | Ben64, Thank you, will read up on it | 04:41 |
| programo | Jordan_U, I have installed ubuntu 14.04 along side of windows 10 | 04:45 |

| bcowan | should be able to upgrade to next LTS which is 16.04, yes | 04:49 |
| programo | bcowan, will my windows break if I newly install Ubuntu 16.04 | 04:53 |

| programo | I do not have my wifi or ethernet working , so I cannot upgrade | 04:55 |
| programo | bcowan, So should I boot from usb and install? | 04:56 |
| bcowan | well thats a whole new install then, best to follow the guide | 04:57 |
| programo | Can I use this version of Ubuntu to install | 05:04 |

| programo | generating a live cd | 05:08 |
| programo | of ubuntu 16.04 | 05:08 |

| rolandbeowulf | I recently bought a bluetooth keyboard with a device switching mode so i can quickly respond to txts and get back to work on my laptop, but every time i switch away from my ubuntu 17.04 laptop and switch back, my keyboard loses the connection and i have to re-pair it. Are there any workarounds to this? | 05:19 |
| lotuspsychje | rolandbeowulf: i think breaking a bluetooth connection always requier a re-pair | 05:22 |
| rolandbeowulf | My iphone seems to handle being switched away from just fine though, so it apparently maintains the pairing in a way ubuntu doesn't understand | 05:23 |
| lotuspsychje | rolandbeowulf: are you using bluez? | 05:25 |
| rolandbeowulf | if that's ubuntu's default bluetooth, then yes | 05:26 |
| lotuspsychje | !info bluez | rolandbeowulf doublecheck plz | 05:27 |

| lotuspsychje | rolandbeowulf: maybe it can get easier for you? | 05:27 |
| programo | I have created a live usb with ubuntu 16.04 | 05:32 |
| programo | I can see that it recognizes wifi near me | 05:32 |
| programo | If I install this os on my laptop along with windos 10 | 05:32 |
| programo | will the wifi work | 05:33 |
| programo | or do I need any drivers for wofo? | 05:33 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: most wifi chipsets work by default on ubuntu yes | 05:33 |
| programo | wifi* | 05:33 |
| programo | okay | 05:33 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: wich chipset is your wifi? | 05:33 |
| programo | intel core i 5 7th gen | 05:33 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: wifi chipset, not cpu | 05:34 |
| programo | how do i find that? | 05:34 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: are you in ubuntu? | 05:34 |
| programo | nope I am installing ubuntu on my other laptop which already has ubuntu 14.04 but the wifi does not work | 05:35 |
| programo | so I am trying to replace ubuntu 14.04 with ubuntu 16.04 | 05:35 |
| programo | lotuspsychje, | 05:35 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: sudo lshw -C network | 05:35 |
| programo | okay | 05:36 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: no need to paste all, just chipset name | 05:36 |
| programo | okay | 05:36 |
| rolandbeowulf | lotuspsychje: I've double and triple checked and im pretty certain its bluez | 05:40 |
| rolandbeowulf | I didnt really touch bluetooth much before getting this keyboard so i doubt i wouldve installed an alternate bluetooth client | 05:40 |
| lotuspsychje | rolandbeowulf: bluez isnt installed by default, optional so i presume you installed it before then? | 05:41 |
| programo | lotuspsychje, | 05:41 |
| programo | http://lpaste.net/360690 | 05:41 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: okay..2 unclaimed devices not good news | 05:42 |
| programo | can I install ubuntu 16.04 on that machine? | 05:42 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: try the 16.04.3 iso live install and see if your intel wifi is detetcted there | 05:43 |
| programo | okay | 05:43 |
| rolandbeowulf | lotuspsychje: I must've installed it later, point is im 9/10 certain this is using bluetooth | 05:43 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: some chipsets can also be blocked by uefi settings | 05:44 |
| programo | lotuspsychje, I tried with live usb , without installing 16.04.3. It was able to detect wifi. So if I install the OS it should detect wifi right? | 05:45 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: yes, but dont forget to enable updates during setup ok | 05:45 |
| programo | okay | 05:45 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: good luck! | 05:46 |
| programo | I had disabled secure boot as well in uefi settings | 05:46 |
| programo | thank you! | 05:46 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: if live usb detects, its good news | 05:46 |
| lotuspsychje | rolandbeowulf: not sure what else could be done, perhaps a tail -f /var/log/syslog and plugout/in BT to see errors reatime? | 05:47 |

| lotuspsychje | rolandbeowulf: never have issues with sandisk before F12 works pretty well here | 05:55 |
| rolandbeowulf | lotuspsychje: The particular sandisks ive had almost never work for booting for some odd reason, so I think this might be something ill have to jot down and report back later on | 05:56 |
| lotuspsychje | rolandbeowulf: perhaps uefi block at boot? | 05:57 |
| rolandbeowulf | lotuspsychje: Perhaps, all i know is that ive dd'd the same iso with the same command on these sandisks and a generic garden variety usb, and the sandisks almost never work while the generics work just fine | 05:59 |
| lotuspsychje | rolandbeowulf: maybe a faulty one? | 06:01 |

I sshed into the RPi with my laptop and went to my room and connected to my room's powerline wirelessly, yet my RPi ssh window stays connected. I cant understand why. Does it mean I wouldnt need port forwarding? | 06:30 |
| jk^ | ok so have i to try that http://multibootusb.org/ ? | 06:30 |
| jk^ | alkisg | 06:30 |
| lotuspsychje | EraserPencil: perhaps an issue for ##networking? | 06:31 |
| lotuspsychje | jk^: read suggestions before chatting here | 06:31 |
| jk^ | yes, the problem is my english :( excuse me lotuspsychje | 06:31 |

| rolandbeowulf | programo: Depends on what exactly you want to learn how to use | 06:40 |
| lotuspsychje | !manual | programo | 06:41 |

| rolandbeowulf | programo: Personally I find its easiest to learn things which you actually need to know for a specific reason, so I set projects for myself as excuses to learn specific tools/skillsets | 06:43 |
| rolandbeowulf | just dont forget to walk before you sprint | 06:43 |
| jk^ | i know there is a repository to download every kind of software from... if there isn't a software in official repository, is it harmful/risky to download from other sources? | 06:44 |
| programo | rolandbeowulf, thanks for the inputs | 06:44 |
| rolandbeowulf | jk^: Depends on what you're installing and where from. I opt for installing stuff from github instead of the repos all the time, whether it be because the repos are too out of date or just not working right | 06:46 |
| rolandbeowulf | Linux isnt nearly as prone to malware as windows, but thats not an excuse to forgo common sense | 06:47 |
| rolandbeowulf | Generally id stick to the repos if you don't know what you're doing though | 06:48 |
| rolandbeowulf | you can also add third party repos but again, common sense needs to be exercised in what you add | 06:49 |
| lotuspsychje | programo: every program has also a manual page from terminal | 06:54 |
| lotuspsychje | !man | programo | 06:54 |
| ubottu | programo: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | Manpages online: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/ | 06:54 |

| jram0421 | Hey guys, have a really weird issue going on that I have no clue how to fix | 07:19 |
| jram0421 | I've verified keymaps and that there aren't any shortcuts set to Shift+e and for the love of god, even after reconfiguring layouts and keymaps can't get it fixed. I'm running 17.10 | 07:21 |
| alkisg | jram0421: can't get fixed what? You didn't state the problem you're trying to solve with shift+e... | 07:22 |
| jram0421 | alkisg: It literally won't let me capitalize e using shift+e | 07:23 |
| alkisg | jram0421: and what happens when you type shift+e? | 07:23 |
| jram0421 | it ignores e entirely. | 07:23 |
| jram0421 | yet it works without shift and works on W10 | 07:24 |
| alkisg | jram0421: is this on a laptop or on a normal keyboard? | 07:24 |
| jram0421 | Normal keyboard. Let me try another kb | 07:25 |
| hateball | jram0421: if you run "xev" does it register the shift+e input at all? | 07:25 |
| jram0421 | Recognizes the shift | 07:25 |
| jram0421 | hateball: I'll be right back, I'm going to try a few things | 07:27 |
| V7 | Hey all :) | 07:27 |
| V7 | Why this one appends to file, rather than rewrites ?: xterm -hold -title "Checking victim" -geometry 83x26-0+0 -bg "#000000" -fg "#FFFFFF" -e "airodump-ng --bssid C8:3A:35:0D:F9:30 -a mon0 --ignore-negative-one 2>&1 | tee /tmp/TMPflux/C8:3A:35:0D:F9:30" | 07:28 |
| V7 | Could you please ... if you have some time ofc | 07:28 |
| alkisg | V7: tee rewrites, tee -a appends. So what you wrote is supposed to rewrite. | 07:29 |
| V7 | Yup | 07:30 |
| V7 | But it appends | 07:30 |
| V7 | This's really strange | 07:30 |
| V7 | It looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/Ev3ij3E.png | 07:31 |
| alkisg | V7: that may be continuous output from the program you're running on xterm | 07:32 |
| V7 | continuous ? | 07:32 |
| alkisg | You run airodump-ng, suppose it outputs 3 lines per 10 seconds | 07:33 |
| alkisg | Then all those lines will just be continuously written to that file | 07:33 |
| V7 | Hm | 07:33 |
| V7 | Do you know hwo it would be right to write xterm output to file ? | 07:34 |
| alkisg | Well first I don't think you want xterm output, but airodump output | 07:34 |
| EriC^^ | i dont think the scope of this channel is to help you "hack victims" | 07:34 |
| V7 | Yup | 07:34 |
| V7 | EriC^^: this is not to hack a victim | 07:34 |
| alkisg | so it would be something like xterm -e 'sh -c "airodump-ng > file"', not using tee | 07:35 |
| EriC^^ | what then? you forgot your wifi password? | 07:35 |
| V7 | It's to lewarn how to get an output from a program which doesn't output to stdout | 07:35 |
| EriC^^ | V7: what about your question and the title? | 07:35 |
| V7 | Find some similar application which you can't redirect like > like airdoump and we'll work with it | 07:36 |
| V7 | EriC^^: This's just a line copied from a sciprt | 07:36 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 07:37 |
| V7 | So .. | 07:37 |
| V7 | airodump-ng doesn't support an output to a text file | 07:37 |
| V7 | xterm doesn't too | 07:37 |
| V7 | how then ? | 07:37 |
| jk^ | https://goo.gl/images/qgjh6f | 07:39 |
| jk^ | what have i to do at this warning of rufus? | 07:39 |
| EriC^^ | jk^: update rufus maybe | 07:41 |
| EriC^^ | get the latest version | 07:41 |
| jk^ | i downloaded it few minutes ago | 07:41 |
| jk^ | it's the latest version | 07:41 |
| EriC^^ | jk^: it does say that it will reuse them automatically later | 07:41 |
| jk^ | i don't understand :\ | 07:42 |
| EriC^^ | jk^: it's missing some files for the newer syslinux so it has to download them, in the future you won't get any warning message | 07:42 |
| jk^ | ok, then have to click "Yes" or "No"? | 07:43 |
| EriC^^ | click yes | 07:43 |

| pax_rhos | how to kill zombie processes? | 10:15 |
| alkisg | pax_rhos: they're already killed. You'll stop seeing them in ps when their childs are killed etc, allowing the os to clean them up | 10:15 |
| pax_rhos | alkisg: http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1512987492.png | 10:18 |
| alkisg | pax_rhos: update-notifier will eventually read their exit numbers, allowing the os to clean up the process table | 10:19 |
| Dani-hp | how can i list all packages which have been manually installed (for example via dpkg -i) and do not provide an upstream repo? | 10:19 |
| alkisg | pax_rhos: if you close update-notifier, they'll get closed too | 10:19 |
| alkisg | Dani-hp: apt-mark showmanual | 10:19 |
| alkisg | "do not provide an upstream repo" => apt policy | 10:20 |

| SCHAPiE | why is fonts-noto so incomplete and outdated, in 17.10? | 11:39 |
| SCHAPiE | black&white emoji, i really wonder why | 11:39 |
| lotuspsychje | !info fonts-noto | 11:40 |
| ubottu | fonts-noto (source: fonts-noto): metapackage to pull in all Noto fonts. In component universe, is optional. Version 20161116-1 (artful), package size 3 kB, installed size 30 kB | 11:40 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: whats happening exactly? | 11:40 |
| SCHAPiE | my ArchLinux install shows many more emoji (with colours also), compared to noto-fonts on Ubuntu 17.10 (many missing emoji, no colours) | 11:41 |
| SCHAPiE | both using Google's Noto fonts | 11:42 |
| SCHAPiE | but on Ubuntu the font is incomplete and/or outdated | 11:42 |
| SCHAPiE | and I wonder why | 11:42 |
| mitmf | Connection reset by 192.168.8.44 port 22 <———— what is problem? | 11:44 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: perhaps not the same version as on arch? | 11:45 |
| SCHAPiE | lotuspsychje: clearly not, indeed | 11:45 |
| lotuspsychje | !latest | SCHAPiE this is why | 11:46 |
| ubottu | SCHAPiE this is why: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 11:46 |
| SCHAPiE | stability, with a font.... doesn't make sense to me, tbh | 11:46 |
| SCHAPiE | i don't see why a font's package wouldn't be updated, in this scheme | 11:46 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: well if you find a bug on it, place a new !bug? | 11:46 |
| SCHAPiE | it's not a bug, it's just a massively outdated version with a stone-age lit of emoji | 11:47 |
| SCHAPiE | *list | 11:47 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: bugs can also contain a new idea right | 11:47 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: but in your case they might say, its already in a newer version? | 11:47 |
| SCHAPiE | i'll install it manually in ~/.fonts then, i don't see any other viable options | 11:48 |
| SCHAPiE | last time i'm using Ubuntu for my work machine, next install will be one that keeps fonts updated | 11:49 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: its your system, you can install anything you want..but we dont recommend mixing packages | 11:50 |
| SCHAPiE | i can imagine aiming for stability with non-font-packages, sure | 11:51 |
| SCHAPiE | let's say, things that contain actual code | 11:51 |
| SCHAPiE | but with regard to fonts, it makes no sense whatsoever to stick with an old version | 11:51 |
| hateball | SCHAPiE: You can mail the mailing list and ask why it's not properly maintained I guess | 11:52 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: if you need newer/older package versions play with another ubuntu version, i see 18.04 got a newer one | 11:52 |
| SCHAPiE | emoji developments are speeding up, and this package here is lagging behind in a big way, in 17.10, the latest stable version | 11:52 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: also have you tested this on an LTS version to compare? | 11:52 |
| SCHAPiE | yeah, i saw that as well, but 18.04 isn't stable yet | 11:53 |
| adrian_1908 | Aren't colored emoji a feature of applications, rather than fonts? | 11:53 |
| SCHAPiE | adrian_1908: nope, it's a font feature | 11:53 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: can you recall wich version you had on arch? | 11:54 |
| adrian_1908 | SCHAPiE: do the fonts themselves container colored vector graphics, or how does it work? | 11:55 |
| adrian_1908 | *contain | 11:55 |
| SCHAPiE | adrian_1908: https://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html | 11:56 |
| adrian_1908 | I always though that fonts are monochrome and clients replace codepoints with their own set of graphics. | 11:56 |
| adrian_1908 | *thought (tired, sorry) | 11:56 |
| SCHAPiE | it's simple; on ArchLinux i can use a significantly large part of those; on Ubuntu, many are lacking and all of them are in black/white | 11:56 |
| SCHAPiE | with the version from apt | 11:56 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: you sure arch doesnt have an additional package installed or so that covers that? | 11:58 |
| lotuspsychje | SCHAPiE: can you doublecheck apt-cache search fonts-noto to see? | 11:59 |
| SCHAPiE | lotuspsychje: ah, i found the cause | 12:04 |
| TsakNorris | I have verbatim usb-stick what has write protection. How i can format it? mount and df shows path for it, but fdisk and gparted can't find it because its secured some how | 12:04 |
| SCHAPiE | 17.10 still lacks cairo >1.15.8 and fontconfig >2.12.5 | 12:05 |
| SCHAPiE | therefore it's impossible to do colour emoji | 12:05 |
| SCHAPiE | thanks lotuspsychje, for convincing me to search better :p | 12:05 |
| lotuspsychje | !yay | SCHAPiE | 12:06 |
| ubottu | SCHAPiE: Glad you made it! :-) | 12:06 |
| SCHAPiE | lotuspsychje: still does not change my feelings i have towards not being able to use proper emoji in 17.10... but oh well, it is what it is. | 12:07 |

| Chryzo | Good morning, | 14:13 |
| Chryzo | I,ve been trying to split a csv file so that the first column value gets outputed in a file named based on the second value. I have been using: cat GeoIPCustom.csv | awk -F',' '{ print $1 >> $2".subnets" }' | 14:14 |
| Chryzo | issue is that I get bad characters in my $2 var and the filenames end being like this: VN?.subnets and fails midway | 14:15 |

| ubottu | not sure for the down part: macchanger (source: macchanger): utility for manipulating the MAC address of network interfaces. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.7.0-5.3 (artful), package size 186 kB, installed size 677 kB (Only available for linux-any) | 14:25 |
| lotuspsychje | ian5v: ^ | 14:26 |
| ian5v | macchanger afaict requires knocking the interface down | 14:26 |
| ian5v | been playing with it a bit | 14:26 |
| lotuspsychje | ian5v: perhaps the ##networking guys might know of such a linux tool? | 14:27 |
| ian5v | i'll give em a shot! | 14:28 |
| alkisg | Chryzo: is this a utf8 issue? How did that character get there? | 14:30 |
| alkisg | Chryzo: what happens if you just print $2 to stdout, is that character there? | 14:31 |
| Chryzo | alkisg, I think it is the line return from the CSV file. If i just pring to stdout, the character is not there | 14:32 |
| alkisg | Chryzo: what's the output of `file your-file.csv`? Does it say it has windows line endings? | 14:32 |
| Chryzo | GeoIPCustom.csv: UTF-8 Unicode (with BOM) text, with CRLF line terminators | 14:33 |
| alkisg | Right, it's a windows file | 14:33 |

| lotuspsychje | daniel331: also try the rotate, to see if it switched to tablet mode | 14:48 |
| daniel331 | <lotuspsychje> I've had this laptop for about 2 years and this problem happens regularly. Opening and closing the lid is what has fixed it for me in the past. Today no joy though and the problem remains no matter how many times I open/close the lid | 14:49 |
| lotuspsychje | daniel331: wich ubuntu version are you on mate? | 14:50 |
| daniel331 | possibly some minor update has fucked things. I tried to run a screen rotation script and it said "Failed to change the screen configuration" when before I was able to rotate the screen fine | 14:50 |

| lotuspsychje | daniel331: up to date system to 16.04.3? | 14:51 |

| clab | Hello I'm having problem with xkbset to set the mouse keys, it always resets the setting | 16:57 |
| GoldenHart | Hello | 17:05 |
| dreadkopp | hey guys. xubuntu17.10 should run fine with Ryzen 1600X + GTX 1060, righty ? | 17:05 |
| GoldenHart | Ubuntu 16.04 Issue. I have tried everything relating to my issue that I can find to this point. The other day I installed Oracle VirtualBox, and turned off my laptop after doing so. When it booted up again, the login screen froze and I have not been able to log in; this repeats each time I boot up. | 17:07 |
| GoldenHart | Through recovery mode I uninstalled the virtualbox, but the problem persists | 17:08 |
| alkisg | GoldenHart: which desktop environment? | 17:14 |
| alkisg | Unity? | 17:14 |
| bender| | Hey guys | 17:17 |
| GoldenHart | All I did, when I installed Ubuntu, was just get plain Ubuntu. I had no knowledge to do anything else. Desktop environment is foreign to me | 17:17 |
| bender| | So I installed Ubuntu 16.04 on an old machine (Core 2 Duo, 5 G RAM, Intel G45/43 chipset), I’m currently running GNOME on it, and it seems rather laggy. Animations are really awkward. Any suggestions? | 17:18 |
| tonyt | bender do you have amd or nvidia's own video driver installed? | 17:19 |
| tonyt | or intel. what ever video card you are using | 17:19 |
| bender| | Well I tried looking into the proprietary Drivers section | 17:20 |
| bender| | It says it’s using Intel microcode | 17:20 |
| bender| | This thing doesn’t have a discrete GPU | 17:20 |
| tonyt | oh ok. that is the only thing i can htink of | 17:20 |
| tonyt | *think | 17:20 |
| GoldenHart | Anybody got any ideas for me? :3 | 17:22 |
| bender| | Is it expected on G45/43? I ran Windows 10 on this system without any UI-associated lag, although I had to separately install graphics drivers | 17:22 |
| adamdelinux | bender| If it's an old machine, have you considered using Lubuntu? Much lighter than the full version. | 17:22 |
| bender| | glxgears also gives an average of 61 FPS | 17:22 |
| bender| | adamdelinux: I’m not using Unity, is GNOME a problem? | 17:23 |
| adamdelinux | bender| GNOME version 3 is a bit heavier, I think, but that's all I can think of. | 17:24 |
| GoldenHart | Ubuntu 16.04 Issue. I have tried everything relating to my issue that I can find to this point. The other day I installed Oracle VirtualBox, and turned off my laptop after doing so. When it booted up again, the login screen froze and I have not been able to log in; this repeats each time I boot up. Any help? VB was uninstalled and the problem persists. | 17:25 |
| bender| | GoldenHart: I’m doing the same thing man. Hunting for the ideal desktop environment | 17:25 |
| GoldenHart | I'm just trying to get to my desktop...lol | 17:26 |
| GoldenHart | A bit different | 17:26 |
| adamdelinux | GoldenHart Do you have a live boot disk? | 17:26 |
| bender| | GoldenHart: Hm? Did you mean to say you uninstalled VirtualBox and then reinstalled it and tried to log in through the same system (as in the same VDI/VHD file)? | 17:26 |
| bender| | Wait. Are you running Ubuntu natively or inside VBox? | 17:27 |
| GoldenHart | No, VB is uninstalled now. Uninstalled through recovery mode console | 17:27 |
| GoldenHart | Natively | 17:28 |
| GoldenHart | And live boot disk no I don't have | 17:28 |
| akik | bender|: mate desktop is much lighter on the system resources | 17:28 |
| bender| | Thanks I’ll look into that. | 17:28 |
| akik | bender|: and the lightest of ubuntu flavours, lubuntu | 17:29 |
| adamdelinux | GoldenHart If you can get a copy of your OS onto a flash drive or CD, you can boot into it and do a live session. Then you can at least access your files and back them up while you do repairs. | 17:29 |
| adamdelinux | akik Using MATE myself... very good. | 17:30 |
| bender| | If you have an additional USB and a PC, you can create a recovery/install disc yourself | 17:30 |
| GoldenHart | So, to search up how to do that on google, what would be my general search phrases? | 17:30 |
| GoldenHart | And no, all I have is a tablet at this point, outside of the laptop that is not working | 17:30 |
| adamdelinux | Try "create ubuntu bootable usb" | 17:31 |
| GoldenHart | Alright sir. Will try | 17:31 |
| adamdelinux | GoldenHart Oh... sorry about your laptop. You can also purchase a flash drive or CD with the OS online. Might take a few days to get it in the mail. | 17:31 |
| bender| | Hm, can you access the command line at least? | 17:32 |
| adamdelinux | GoldenHart https://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=1206 | 17:32 |
| bender| | You did say you were able to uninstall VBox? | 17:32 |
| GoldenHart | Recovery mode allows me to do so | 17:32 |

| maestrojed | lordcirth_work maybe! Getting a little outside my knowledge zone. But these ubuntu boxes are running in vagrant. The directories or files affected have so far always been in the vagrant_synced_folders path. So a path shared between guest and host. | 19:30 |
| maestrojed | when I look at the files on the host machine, they look normal and can be listed on the CLI. The host machine is OSX | 19:30 |
| lordcirth_work | maestrojed, It's possible the syncing is buggy | 19:30 |
| maestrojed | These files are also version controlled with Git which shows no changes. | 19:30 |
| alkisg | What's the file system that's reported inside the VM? | 19:31 |
| alkisg | Is it ext4? | 19:31 |
| maestrojed | lordcirth_work yeah, It is quite the coincidence. But once that VM is running, seems I should be able to solve this from a Linux POV? no? | 19:31 |
| maestrojed | alkisg let me check | 19:31 |
| lordcirth_work | maestrojed, is vagrant mounting the host folder in, or just copying at startup? | 19:31 |
| maestrojed | alkisg I believe its NTS | 19:32 |
| maestrojed | lordcirth_work I believe mounting, as typically changes made in one system are realized in the other | 19:33 |
| lordcirth_work | maestrojed, yeah, I bet that's the problem. Did you mean NTFS? | 19:34 |
| maestrojed | I have tried so much, I am not sure if its worth listing the stuff. But I can move, remove, touch, edit, change permissions, ownership, etc. on these files. But they still behave this odd way. | 19:34 |
| lordcirth_work | maestrojed, and if you copy the whole tree somewhere local in the VM, does it behave properly there? | 19:35 |
| maestrojed | lordcirth_work This is how I determined NTS https://gist.github.com/maestrojed/30fa7c9299e7721296e97825467ab4fb | 19:36 |
| maestrojed | lordcirth_work I will try! | 19:36 |
| lordcirth_work | thats NFS | 19:36 |
| maestrojed | So sorry! | 19:37 |
| torontoyes | does anyone know how to prepare the windows image to work with MAAS? is there any documentation for this? I don't really see much | 19:40 |
| maestrojed | Ok, I copied the entire tree. That problematic directory was not copied. | 19:41 |
| === jackNemrod_ is now known as jackNemrod | ||
| maestrojed | FYI, I can copy the problematic directory specifically. "cp -Rf /var/www/docroot/modules/taxonomy/ ~/debug/". The directory is copied and I can list it at its new location. | 19:44 |
| Popzi | EriC^^: lol, fixed it, made a bash script to wait 30 secs, and run a systemctl start command as the 'user' user, and just added that to run on a @reboot cron for either user since the script works on both... hacky fixes ftw | 19:47 |

| DeeJayTwo | Hi, I have an strange issue... as soon as I'm connecting a storage device to any of my USB ports, my wireless mouse and keyboards aren't working anymore. | 21:00 |
| DeeJayTwo | Hmm... I think I've found the reason for my problem...: http://www.usb.org/developers/docs/whitepapers/327216.pdf | 21:11 |
| DeeJayTwo | USB3 is leaking RF in 2.4 Ghz and breaks communications between my usb antenna and my keyboard/mouse... | 21:11 |
| tubal | Hello. I'm trying to figure out the following... it has worked before. ... | 21:15 |
| tubal | echo 7 | sudo tee > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness | 21:15 |
| tubal | bash: /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness: Permission denied | 21:15 |
| tubal | D'oh! Just saw it... the errant > . Duh. | 21:16 |
| tubal | Anyway, as you might have guessed, I'm having trouble getting backlight to work properly with 27.20/Gnome. Up to 17.04, backlight-vendor in grub.conf worked. not anymore. Booting with "acpi_osi=" gets backlight to respond to the kb, but not to gui controls. Does anyone know any other approaches? | 21:22 |
| tubal | s/27.20/17.10/ | 21:24 |
| TJ- | tubal: what's in the sysfs nodes for class/backlight/ | 21:34 |
| tubal | TJ: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26166117/ | 21:37 |
| TJ- | tubal: do both allow you to control the brightness manually? | 21:37 |
| tubal | TJ: By manually, do you mean with the kb buttons? | 21:38 |
| TJ- | tubal: no, by echoing the value to the brightness node | 21:38 |
| tubal | Only backlight=vendor did so. Current boot, with acpi=osi, I have the kb, but not the fs. | 21:39 |
| tubal | Neither allowed for gui controls. | 21:39 |
| TJ- | tubal: you can test with something similar to: echo 6 | sudo dd of=/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness | 21:42 |
| TJ- | tubal: you can get the maximum allowed value with cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness | 21:42 |
| snkcld | im on ubuntu 17.10, and id like to disable "tap to click", but it doesnt show up under the "mouse and touchpad" settings | 21:43 |
| TJ- | tubal: if one of the nodes under class/backlight does NOT change the backlight my guess would be the GUI has bound to that one | 21:43 |
| tubal | TJ: The dd line had no effect. So, by the logic of your last line, you're saying the GUI controls should respond to /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video_0 ? | 21:47 |
| TJ- | tubal: my hypothesis is that one of those two backlight device nodes doesn't actually work, but the GUI has found it first and bound to it | 21:48 |
| TJ- | tubal: if you can't change the brightness using acpi_video/brightness but can using intel_backlight/brightness, it would suggest the GUI is trying to use acpi_video0 | 21:49 |
| tubal | echo 300 | sudo dd of=/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness | 21:49 |
| tubal | That line did what you'd expect. | 21:49 |
| tubal | So, your hypothesis is the GUI is trying acpi_video0. So, based on that, how do I get it to actually do so? | 21:51 |

| pointydrip | Hello I am having trouble repairing grub from a live usb | 22:05 |
| pointydrip | am I at the right channel for help? | 22:06 |
| p0a | Hello I've removed firefox with apt-remove but I still get updates on language packs & chromium stuff. How can I completely remove the firefox virus from my system? | 22:08 |
| pointydrip | I am on natty and tried using boot repair from a live USB but I got an error, I am now on chroot to sda1 but it says grub-pc has not installation candidate and unable to locate package grub-common | 22:10 |
| pointydrip | I'm stuck with no bootloader.... | 22:10 |
| adrian_1908 | p0a: try `sudo apt purge firefox && sudo apt autoremove` | 22:10 |
| macgeek312 | I have a weird question...is there a way to move /run off of tmpfs and have it just be a normal directory? | 22:10 |
| macgeek312 | I haven't been able to figure out where it even gets mounted to adjust the size or anything | 22:11 |
| p0a | adrian_1908: what's autoremove? | 22:13 |
| p0a | adrian_1908: It's going to remove a bunch of linux-headers* and linux-image* files | 22:14 |
| adrian_1908 | p0a: it removes old dependencies that are no longer needed, among them packages that came in with now-uninstalled software. | 22:14 |
| p0a | adrian_1908: well that's a whole GB of data! nice | 22:15 |
| p0a | adrian_1908: thank you | 22:15 |
| adrian_1908 | p0a: Since you say you're still getting updates for stuff you don't want, that might be an option. Otherwise, nothing from firefox should "stick around". | 22:15 |
| adrian_1908 | np | 22:15 |
| pointydrip | Is anyone able to help me get my bootloader back? | 22:15 |
| p0a | yeah I get language packs and ffmpeg stuff for chromium | 22:16 |

| p0a | anyhow we'll see now | 22:16 |
| pointydrip | tomreyn: ya I know... but I need to retreive stuff from it | 22:16 |
| tomreyn | you'd better just backup and reinstall | 22:17 |

| tomreyn | pointydrip: ^ this is the other option, but i guess with a system that opuutdated, a reinstall is a *much* better option. | 22:18 |

| tomreyn | pointydrip: so just boot from some live media, mount the file systems of the old installation, backup data, install current ubuntu, restore data | 22:19 |
| pointydrip | tomreyn: K thx I'll try that | 22:20 |
| TJ- | tubal: you should have/try acpi_backlight=vendor in addition to any acpi_osi= options | 22:20 |

| CarlFK | how do I zero out grub so I can verify that my installer is installing it? (3 drives, sda,b,c are moving around on me...) | 22:41 |
| CarlFK | something like dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bc=100 | 22:41 |
| CarlFK | it's ok if I break the partition table and everything else too | 22:41 |
| pavlos | CarlFK: I think you need to write 512 bytes | 22:44 |
| TJ- | CarlFK: Depends on whether its BIOS or UEFI, and whether the disk label is MBR or GPT | 22:45 |
| CarlFK | TJ-: bios. not sure the 2nd - how about i do both? | 22:45 |
| TJ- | CarlFK: if you're wanting to zap the MBR boot-strap then something like "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdZ bs=442 count=1" | 22:46 |
| CarlFK | automated install should rebuild from whatever broken state things are in | 22:46 |
| gsilvapt | Hello all. A friend of my who hasn't updated his personal wiki page since 2014. He wants to update it now but it says page immutable for him but I can edit it. Any suggestions about what is happening here= | 22:46 |
