[00:08] Hi all, can somebody recommend a good IRC app for Android? [00:20] daddesio: Atomic is the least offensive, lightweight, and is on F-Droid [00:20] Hi. I'm trying to build a project. Now i get the error that the linker can't find -lz. I've searched for libz-dev etc. but couldn't find anything. Which package do i actually need? [00:21] Kon[m]: Thank you so much. Anyway, I'm in a hurry, so I picked one of the first ones I saw on the Play Store. But thanks for your suggestion. :) [00:21] I picked AndroIRC [00:23] Is it zlibc? [00:27] hi folks [00:27] I have some crap in my /etc/resolv.conf created be NetworkManager [00:28] but name resolution works! [00:28] How that could happen? [00:29] Anticom: there is a package called "zlib1g-dev" [00:31] Folks [00:31] Does anyone run Kubuntu 17.x? [00:32] please would you pastebin the files you have in /etc/resolvconf ? [00:32] Cuz I have a feeling that something screwed up my system [00:32] And I can ping hosts but I can't dig them! [00:34] deem: hm there is. I've installed libz-dev (although it apt show libz-dev didn't tell me anything useful it was installable) [00:35] ylwghst: If by "Gnome 3" you mean GNOME Shell, then no. It's not possible to use Gnome Shell with Compiz as the compositor, shell, and window manager are all bound together (the same way that Unity 7 is bound to Compiz). If you want to use all of the GNOME3 apps while using compiz as your window manager you can do that though. [00:37] is there software that will average out the inputs from three GPS units? [01:11] bipolar: good to hear. Thanks for reporting the issue in the first place! [01:24] Jordan_U: the whole environemnt is called Gnome 3... Gnome shell application is part of the whole environemnt. [01:25] Jordan_U: I wasn't asking if I can use compiz within Gnome 3. There was someone asking for help and he stated he uses Compiz within gnome3... [01:26] I was just like gnome 3 with compiz? o really? wtf? [01:27] I installed Pulse Secure Connect client which I needed to install libwebkitgtk-1.0.0. Anyone know how I can scale that on my HiDPI monitor? It is the only app that open super small? [01:27] Jordan_U: another part of whole gnome 3 stack is mutter which is the compositor deeply integrated with the other software... [01:31] On a similar topic, why is Wayland supposed to be better than X11? [01:32] Leevancleef: I don't now much about details but the Xorg works as server applications which runs and has libraries to work with your hardware... [01:33] Leevancleef, google the difference [01:35] Been there, done that, kk4ewt. Thanks for spending your time writing that helpful suggestion. [01:35] Wayland it's just protocol - a set of rules and libraries to work with the hardware which can be used by other applications. [01:38] Yeah, my impression is that Wayland is supposed to remove a step from the process, but it's somewhat arcane to me [01:38] From the Wayland project on Github: [01:39] well its here https://github.com/wayland-project/wayland [01:40] the compositor can acts like the server by its self and can communicate with clients - apps [01:45] It's working much more better on my system. I always had problems with tearing on Xorg, there's no way to completely tear free experience. On wayland the issue is completely gone. The performance of my GPU is also much more better on wayland ( i currently use nouveau which has very poor performance but much better on Wayland ). [01:49] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.Org_Server#/media/File:The_Linux_Graphics_Stack_and_glamor.svg [01:51] ylwghst, that's good news for those of us on Nvidia [02:00] I just wonder what will be with nvidia's proprietary drivers. [02:03] How do I get Ubuntu to load the proprietary nvidia drivers from the graphics-drivers PPA when the NVIDIA card is not the primary display card? [02:03] I have the drivers installed, but they are currently not loaded (lsmod does not list them) [02:04] k_sze: look for Bumblebee [02:06] In fact, currently, if I run `sudo modprobe nvidia_387`, I get "modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia_387': No such device" [02:06] Is that even normal? [02:06] `lspci` *does* list my card though. [02:07] k_sze: try sudo modprobe nvidia [02:07] ylwghst: same [02:08] are you talking about laptop right? [02:08] no, desktop. [02:11] Maybe I just need to reboot it. :/ [02:11] which kernel ? [02:13] Linux m-desktop 4.13.0-17-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Mon Nov 6 10:04:08 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [02:13] And this machine doesn't have UEFI Safeboot enabled [02:14] So I don't need the uefi driver signing steps. [02:14] does 387 work with 4.13? [02:14] could you try NVIDIA 384.59 instead ? [02:16] new to ubuntu 14.04 (pre-installed at work) and having an odd problem -- not sure what I did, but the background image I had previously selected seems to have become illusive (if I use --, I can see it, but if I select any of the desktops, it disappears again). [02:18] hello [02:18] I am using Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS (server) in QEMU [02:19] (I had previously had a problem with no icons or folders showing up either, and following these instructions fixed it: https://askubuntu.com/questions/893233/ubuntu-desktop-folders-icons-and-files-are-not-visible) [02:19] I want to connect to my virtual machine via ssh but for some reason the IP of my virtual machine does not work [02:19] any idea? [02:19] cfoch: why are you on 14.04? [02:20] because I have a software that only works in Ubuntu 14.04 [02:20] cfoh : you need a bridge network [02:20] o sorry it was for bemo [02:20] bemo: why are you on 14.04? [02:20] (worked great for a while, and then something I did seems to have triggered the background to disappear again -- though I can still see icons and and folders) [02:20] ylwghst: because that's what they support at my work... :-| [02:21] and figured I'd ask the experts before I ask *them* for help. :) [02:21] bemo: try this [02:21] feh --bg-fill /path/to/image.file [02:21] cfoch : https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-to-create-bridge-interface-ubuntu-linux/ [02:21] ylwghst: do I need to install "feh"? [02:22] probably yes [02:22] bemo which desktop env? [02:22] I was using one of the stock images -- happen to know where they are? [02:23] probably a silly question, but... how do I know which desktop? oh, wait... lightdm? [02:23] at /usr/share/??? [02:23] they should be in /usr/share/background [02:24] pstree shows "lightdm" with a "cinamon-launch"... as a child (and a bunch of others) [02:24] where ??? may be background/ , wallpaper/ [02:24] cinnamon then [02:24] bemo: sorry it;s [02:24] /usr/share/backgrounds [02:25] ylwghst, I've continued reading up on the Wayland situation, and it seems any performance increase is limited to Nouveau. OpenGL seems totally unsupported in Wayland with Nvidia's proprietary drivers, which for better or worse do offer superior performance to Nouveau. [02:25] https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2017/10/plasmawayland-and-nvidia-2017-edition/ [02:25] ylwghst: feh --bg-fill /usr/share/backgrounds/gnome/Road.jpg [02:25] Leevancleef: definitely [02:25] still shows a generic background (not the roads background) [02:26] t0no6a: I have to do that in the VM right? [02:26] aloo_shu: not sure if that answered your question on the desktop [02:26] usually right click on empty desktop space shows options like set image [02:26] I also think this division on Wayland compatibility will also hurt Nouveau by furthering the rift between FOSS driver developers and the Nvidia team [02:27] aloo_shu: it does, and I've selected different images -- nothing happens (which is different behavior from what I was seeing earlier today, where it would slowly fade from one background image to another) [02:28] there could be something in workspaces settings, too, like use same/different background per workspace aka virtual desktop, bemo [02:29] or a setting if you have slideshow or single image [02:29] or both [02:29] still poking around -- not seeing anything obvious [02:30] bemo: anyway would be good to update your ubuntu to 16.04 [02:30] (and as far as I know -- I didn't *change* anything to make it behave differently -- it *feels* like it was a side-effect of me trying to drag a nautilus icon to chrome. [02:30] ylwghst: okay, was hoping that wasn't the solution... :) [02:30] thanks [02:31] cfoch : no, on the host [02:32] bemo: well it's not a good solution to your problem but if you do not rely on something really specific there is no reason to stay on 14.04 which isn't supported nowadays... [02:32] t0no6a: I have Fedora on the host :-/ is it the best place to ask? [02:32] think I'll try the previous "dconf reset" solution I had tried before, since that fixed a tangentially similar problem earlier this morning. [02:33] ylwghst: it's a build system and our internal folks haven't blessed a newer version of ubuntu yet (though I think they're still working on it) [02:33] Leevancleef: and no CUDA computations with nouveau.. [02:33] bemo: I see [02:33] ylwghst: thanks for the help! [02:34] aloo_shu: thanks to you as well... off to go see if I can break something now [02:34] bemo, 14.04 is supported until 2019. whatever you did, you should be able to fix without upgrading which can bring a whole lot of other issues with it. [02:34] bemo you haven't played with running a graphical session as root, have you? [02:34] aloo_shu: no [02:34] pauljw: it's a "silly" thing to be worrying about on a work computer, since it's functioning normally otherwise. [02:34] ok [02:35] anyway, let me try this solution again, and see if it helps: https://askubuntu.com/questions/893233/ubuntu-desktop-folders-icons-and-files-are-not-visible [02:35] be back in a bit... [02:35] understand bemo, i wouldn't lose sleep over it, just keep looking for an answer. [02:36] pauljw: thanks. [02:37] pauljw: bemo: but 14.04 doesn't uses Compiz or ? [02:38] he is reseting /org/compiz/ key [02:38] ylwghst: what I do know is that when I couldn't see things I was dropping on my desktop with nautilus, I tried that, and it fixed my problem. [02:38] be back in a few... will let you know if it helped. :) [02:39] some DEs implement compiz features [02:39] so maybe use keys [02:39] or it was some side effect [02:40] oh wait [02:40] heis on cinnamon right [02:40] ylwghst: yes [02:41] ylwghst: ... just about to "shutdown -r now"... any new insights? :) [02:41] bemo: kill -9 -1 should be enough [02:41] no more insights after that [02:41] ylwghst: okay... doing it now ;-) [02:43] may be something just blocking my connection to the virtual machine IP? [02:43] I have an 8bitdo FC30 Pro controller. I made a udev rule for it, and when I plug it in, an event for it shows up in the system log; but I don't find an actual device file for it afterward. How can I troubleshoot this? [02:45] bemo: dconf reset -f /org/nemo/ [02:46] bemo: this should revert your nemo settings [02:47] i mean [02:47] dconf reset -f /org/nemo/ [02:47] was it the dconf command or the reboot? not sure... but it's working again. [02:47] thanks for the help. [02:47] who nows :-) [02:47] kill -9 -1 only logs you out of your session [02:48] "kill -9 -1" eventually rebooted my machine... after some complaints from some Modem somethin' or other... [02:48] strange.. [02:48] I did eventually try ctrl-alt-delete while waiting for about 30 second with no activity... so maybe *that* rebooted it [02:49] anyway, thanks again for the help -- time to go eat. :) [02:49] cya [03:11] * aloo_shu o/ [06:57] Hello. I just had a Wayland session freeze on me, so I'm wondering if there's a way to kill a Wayland session a la ctrl-alt-backspace with Xorg? [07:10] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cyrus [07:11] Under "Mailbox creation" I try to use cyradm but I am informed I can not connect to the server [07:11] I am not sure cyrus is running [07:11] the only service that installed was cyrus-imapd [07:18] cOkay [07:19] Okay* [07:19] Cyrus does not run [07:19] Despite the init script reporting no error [07:21] R0b0t1: perhaps the #cyrus channel might know that? [07:22] lotuspsychje: I will ask there, but Ubuntu adds so much configuration to most packages that the project maintainers for a specific piece of software often do not want to help [07:22] R0b0t1: i never said you cant get any help here [07:23] R0b0t1: best way to get help is idle here and ask your issue all in one line with all details, ubuntu version, kernel version, steps taken,etc [07:23] Here are logs: https://bpaste.net/show/614b4bc0a030 [07:24] * R0b0t1 sighs [07:25] Good morning everyone [07:25] Good everyone. [07:26] Morning everyone, good? [07:26] Everything is good so far. Just doing a complete reinstall of all my software so it's a little slow-going. [07:29] Hi, what is the best thing to use to connect to a smart lg tv in Ubuntu 17.10 please? [07:33] help! my laptop has windows 10 and Xubuntu + Ubuntu on it. I've updated Windows this morning but know it have entered in grub rescue mode with: error: no such partition. what should I do? [07:34] s/know/now [07:36] !grub [07:36] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [07:36] Exterminador: boot a live usb to trouble shoot [07:36] Exterminador: iirc I've seen others with the same problem, that Windows murders the bootloader. I think EriC^^ knows these things, so hang around til he is here maybe [07:36] First link there [07:36] oh [07:36] !cookie | EriC^^ [07:36] EriC^^: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [07:36] :D [07:38] erm, I must see if I still have a usb with Ubuntu or Xubuntu [07:39] Exterminador: if you're getting grub rescue, it means you still have grub somewhere so its likely a efi install, and since you're getting grub rescue it means it cant find either efi/...grub.cfg or it cant find the /boot/grub files (which would be the worst case, especially if you dont have a separate /boot) [07:41] likely windows nuked the linux rootfs, try typing "ls" in grub rescue> [07:43] got this https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/f3WWvQWS/irccloudcapture1819509855.jpg [07:44] Exterminador: that looks good [07:44] it's a msdos install [07:45] Exterminador: try ls (hd0,msdos4)/ [07:45] is it possible to achieve something like this: [07:45] i mean msdos3 [07:45] killall --ppid $$ calc ? [07:45] Is it possible to kill all subprocesses with specified names (not pids) [07:45] sounds like a linux question more than ubuntu [07:45] yup [07:46] noone answers there and in #bash [07:46] So I've asked here [07:46] EriC^^: unknown filesystem. [07:47] Exterminador: try "insmod ext2" [07:47] Exterminador: try also ls (hd0,msdos5)/ [07:49] the (hd0,msdos5)/ also gave the same error [07:50] Exterminador: does echo $prefix show anything? [07:52] it says: `echo (hd0,msdos7)/boot/grub`> [07:52] Exterminador: aye [07:52] i think windows nuked your rootfs [07:52] hi, where can i get skype or alterntivie for ubuntu 17.10? [07:53] Exterminador: make a live usb and come back here, your best best is that it just deleted the partition and you can restore it easily [07:54] EriC^^: okay. I think I have the Xubuntu USB somewhere in the drawer. [07:54] k [07:55] rainbowwarrior: in the skype web site, there's a .deb you can download [07:58] found it && booting into it [07:58] Whats password manager do you guys use. I'm having trouble integrating it into my workflow [07:59] kpassx is a good one, ive heard [08:00] do you mean keepassx? it's sort of dead, try keepassxc.. [08:00] ty alkisg [08:00] I'm using keepassxc, but it's based on manual entry and it's not really working for me [08:02] I have keyed in the titles and url to github and github.com respectively. But when I use github credentials to log in to other websites, like git kraken or something they dont work [08:03] EraserPencil: there's a scripted thingy based on rofi and pass that looked really good, but it depends on your workflow... [08:04] EriC^^: booted into live xubuntu usb [08:07] Exterminador: type "sudo parted -ls | nc termbin.com 9999" [08:07] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/ea9i [08:08] Exterminador: ok, seems like the rootfs partition is deleted [08:08] let's try to mount it blindly [08:09] okay [08:10] Exterminador: type "sudo parted /dev/sda unit s print | nc termbin.com 9999" [08:10] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/0snx [08:15] it's so weird how a simple windows update have done this. :/ [08:15] Exterminador: for i in {662196222..663000000}; do echo trying $i; sudo mount -o offset=$(( $i * 512 )) /dev/sda /mnt 2>/dev/null && echo success && break; done [08:15] Exterminador: type the whole command above and take note if it says success and the number before it [08:15] yup [08:16] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/28hG7ppz/ [08:16] this is the result of the cmd you gave me [08:18] Exterminador: try "ls -l /mnt" do you see your linux install there? /home /boot /etc [08:19] EriC^^: looks fine? https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/F6VjAudo/ [08:20] Exterminador: yup, type "sudo umount /mnt" [08:20] done [08:20] Exterminador: then type "sudo fdisk /dev/sda" [08:21] press "n" make a new partition and make sure it's a logical one and the starting sector is 662196224 [08:22] First sector (662198270-976771071, default 662198272), so, i type the 662196224 and enter? [08:23] hmm [08:23] that's outside [08:24] i have Windows 10, Xubuntu (not sure if /dev/sda5 or 6) and Ubuntu (/dev/sda7) [08:25] Exterminador: oh [08:26] i think Xubuntu and Ubuntu are inside a logical partition already, splitted in 2 [08:26] Exterminador: exit fdisk, type "sudo apt-add-repository universe && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install testdisk" [08:26] okay [08:27] EriC^^: installed [08:27] Exterminador: sudo testdisk [08:27] no log > no log > Intel > analyze [08:28] choose the disk ^ [08:29] EriC^^: https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/BMeT0mZs/ [08:30] Exterminador: press enter then do a quick search [08:31] 42% [08:31] it's kinda slow this laptop === r0Oter is now known as r00ter [08:32] it takes time usually [08:32] man windows is pretty precise though, it deleted both ext partitions, and left the swap intact [08:32] EriC^^ https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/C4PQT0tx/ [08:36] Exterminador: ok, using the arrows on the kb, make the 2nd one (D hpfs) into a P [08:37] done [08:38] Exterminador: you also want the lower hpfs a P too [08:38] HPFS - NTFS 25309 200 44 .. [08:39] when changing it: Structure: Bad. [08:39] but it's changed tho [08:39] Exterminador: np, is it P right now [08:39] ok [08:39] go to Linux 41219 206 12 50761 117 44 153286656 [08:39] make it a L or LC whatever its called [08:40] as well as the 2 ones below it, linux and swap [08:40] This looks dramatic... [08:40] it's like this now. correct? https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/OtWIu8pS/ [08:42] Exterminador: yeah, are you able to do anything with the first Linux Swap ? [08:42] possibly make it an "E" ? [08:43] D, L, P or * only [08:43] try "L" [08:43] actually nevermind [08:43] leave it D, it overlaps the linux under it [08:44] Exterminador: write the new partition table [08:44] then run sudo partprobe /dev/sda [08:44] okay [08:45] brb call [08:52] EriC^^: https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/SFXQKjD9/ [08:55] it's ok to reboot? [08:56] Exterminador: yeah try to reboot [08:57] gone into rescue mode again :/ [08:58] don't tell me I need to reinstall it all over again :x [08:58] Exterminador: nah, boot the live usb so we can see the partition table again [08:59] okay [08:59] "sudo parted -ls | nc termbin.com 9999" [09:00] damn MS that is unable to do a proper OS! [09:02] they has linux builtin [09:06] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/0e9t [09:10] Extended starts at 209GB and logical at 339GB? What happened to the space between that? [09:12] good question. and all of this because of a Windows update [09:12] :x [09:12] Eh, sometimes something else is to blame and not what we think it is :) [09:13] alkisg: been working without a flaw for the last 6 months [09:13] Sure [09:13] Everything works before it breaks [09:13] until i decided to update the damn windows :/ [09:14] sudo testdik -> paste.ubuntu.com/26175571/a [09:14] Exterminador: try sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt && cat /mnt/etc/issue [09:15] alkisg: it's not the first time someone has come here with 'just updated windows, my linux partition is missing' [09:15] For example, maybe your partitioning was wrong all that time, and it didn't trigger any issues in Linux, but it triggered a bug in windows update. No point in putting the blame to some software before reproducing the issue... [09:15] EriC^^: Ubuntu 17.10 \n \l [09:16] What can I do if input to my laptop is severely buggy? When it boots up, it can fail to detect the trackpad, keyboard, or both, and if I suspend it it's a crapshoot which will work after resume [09:16] The only input device that works every time is the touchscreen, oddly enough [09:16] Exterminador: ok, try sudo umount /mnt && sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt && cat /mnt/etc/issue [09:17] When they're not working, xinput --list won't list the ones that are not working, and they'll also be missing from /proc/bus/input/devices [09:17] alkisg: this was his old pt before testdisk http://termbin.com/ea9i [09:18] EriC^^: same output tho [09:18] he did have missing space (good spot btw), but nothing really 'unusual' [09:18] Exterminador: ok, good, so the locations of the partitions are correct right now [09:18] Exterminador: do you remember having another partition, that testdisk may discover now if you run it again? [09:18] type sudo umount /mnt [09:19] done [09:19] EriC^^: maybe tell him to run debsums in a chroot to verify disk/package integrity? [09:19] alkisg: this was testdisk's last output before we wrote the new pt https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/OtWIu8pS/ [09:19] alkisg: i think only the partition table was deleted [09:20] we could try to see if there's a fs in the missing space [09:20] Sometimes testdisk finds wrong sizes etc though, so the new partition table may be different to what he had before the issue [09:20] Exterminador: try sudo mount -o offset=$((407539711 * 512)) /dev/sda /cdrom && ls /cdrom [09:21] Heh, nice trick that one with /cdrom :D [09:21] yeah comes in handy :D [09:21] Exterminador: sorry typo [09:22] Exterminador: try sudo mount -o offset=$((407539712 * 512)) /dev/sda /cdrom && ls /cdrom [09:23] Exterminador: you possibly need to chroot now and run update-grub that's why you're still getting grub rescue> the partition numbering in $prefix changed [09:23] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/9AAWCfbc/ [09:23] Exterminador: try the mount offset, we'll fix grub, then try seeing if there's some missing fs in that space like we did earlier [09:24] Exterminador: which one is your main os, ubuntu or xubuntu? [09:25] usually was Xubuntu [09:25] Exterminador: ok try ls /mnt/home and try to figure out if its the xubuntu one [09:26] nope. it's the Ubuntu one. only 2 users. Xubuntu had 3 [09:26] Exterminador: ok, type sudo umount /mnt && sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt [09:27] done [09:27] Exterminador: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done [09:27] done [09:28] Exterminador: sudo chroot /mnt [09:28] then "grub-install --recheck /dev/sda && update-grub" [09:28] running last cmd [09:29] oops.. my Xubuntu disappeared [09:30] http://paste.ubuntu.com/26175644/ [09:30] that's ubuntu [09:30] xubuntu is already found [09:31] oh [09:31] last time it was on sda7, the Ubuntu [09:32] Exterminador: yeah no worries [09:32] Exterminador: you have 130gb of space that's unallocated right now [09:32] uh.. how to solve that? [09:32] we could search for any missing filesystems, or if you're sure you have everything already, you could just create a partition and use the space somehow [09:33] perhaps better check, just in case? [09:34] Exterminador: try "sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt && cat /etc/fstab /mnt/etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999" [09:35] mount: /mnt: /dev/sda6 already mounted on /mnt. [09:35] People : hi ! I'm struggling with the install of my new laptop under kubuntu. On my old one, I was using quasselcore with a postgresql database. I've migrated the old database to my new laptop, however, quasselcore doesn't seem to be abble to use postgresql database driver. What package am I missing do use it as I want ? [09:36] Exterminador: odd [09:36] nc: getaddrinfo for host "termbin.com" port 9999: Name or service not known [09:36] also this [09:37] Exterminador: ok, first things first, try rebooting and see how it goes [09:37] okay [09:37] doing that now [09:41] it found Ubuntu, Ubuntu 17.10 and Windows 10 [09:41] Ubuntu 17.10 seems to be Xubuntu [09:42] is that what you wanted? [09:43] confirmed. 17.10 is Xubuntu and booted successfully and all apps & users are there. I'll try Ubuntu now and so on. I'll report back any errors/issues that I may found [09:45] EriC^^: how can I see if it's Xubuntu or Ubuntu dealing with the bootloader? [09:47] Exterminador: not sure you can [09:47] is that right now the boot menu appears with a purple (?) background and before it was a black one. I suppose now it's Ubuntu dealing with it [09:48] yeah [09:48] so anything I must use grub customizer on Ubuntu and not in Xubuntu [09:48] boot into the one you want as the main os, an run sudo grub-install /dev/sda && sudo update-grub and you should be good [09:49] oh, okay then. I'll try it now tho [09:49] all seems to be working fine. still need to check windows [09:52] let's see what happens now. Windows says: Working on updates 34% [09:52] ROFL. let's see if it breaks stuff again [09:54] I'll give feedback as soon as Window$ have finished with the updating [09:54] hello people. Maybe someone can know why some packages have disappeared from the archives? for example in http://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/python-pip/ there's no python3-pip_1.5.6-5ubuntu2_all.deb anymore, only an older version (1.5.4) [09:55] and also much newer versions [09:58] thanks for all the help provided EriC^^. 😃 [09:59] Exterminador: no problem :) [09:59] I'll save the logs of this issue for future reference also. can be useful later on [10:05] edulix: packages.ubuntu.com/python-pip [10:06] Those are the packages that are needed in the archive [10:06] The others are obsolete and are removed from the mirrors [10:06] alkisg: 1.5.6 is obsolete but 1.5.4 is not? I don't understand. I mean for trusty. it just disappeared [10:07] edulix: right, 1.5.6 could be for 14.10, so when it went EOL, it was removed [10:07] alkisg: I see thanks [10:07] np [10:07] alkisg: is there any way I can check that? [10:07] Click on each package, it will get you the publication history [10:08] edulix: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/python-pip [10:08] Check "releases in ubuntu", those are for trusty only [10:08] And similar for the other releases [10:09] !info python3-pip trusty | edulix [10:09] edulix: python3-pip (source: python-pip): alternative Python package installer - Python 3 version of the package. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5.4-1ubuntu4 (trusty), package size 78 kB, installed size 437 kB [10:10] edulix: see also for vivid, the 1.5.6 you were looking for: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/vivid/+source/python-pip [10:10] alkisg: so those packages are not anywhere anymore right? [10:10] edulix: there are in launchpad, but not in the mirrors [10:10] So you can download the .debs, but not use an apt repository [10:10] alkisg: oh awesome [10:11]
