[00:00] ghostnik11: i'd expect some errors if what you say is accurate [00:00] Just hit tab twice after openssl [00:00] jrp93, okay [00:00] libssl-dev [00:01] jrp93, dax no of those worked [00:01] tatertots, i tried with the tab function and it didnt wor [00:01] ghostnik11: "sudo apt-get install libssl-dev" didn't work? [00:01] you're putting in install right [00:01] sudo apt-get install [00:01] lol [00:01] jrp93, yeah i put in install [00:02] tab will just show you results [00:02] tatertots, thats not funny, i am about to make history to a problem that has plague me for months [00:02] ghostnik11: sudo apt install inxi pastebinit [00:02] that begin with openssl [00:02] ghostnik11: let me know when done [00:03] tatertots, thats saying it will install senors and other stuff [00:03] tatertots, meant to say: sensors and other stuff like hawk [00:04] tatertots, its done now i will try like jrp93 said and try to get openssl [00:05] no don't listen to me [00:05] hello, I am on an ubuntu flavor with kde desktop (kstudio), and after release upgrade first the OS didnt boot, then, after I reinstalled grub on another OS on disk, it now boots into terminal instead of gui desktop. [00:05] jrp93, why would you say such things. you gave me advice [00:05] can you help please? this flavor doesnt have own channel. and online solutions are only for ubuntu desktops-. [00:06] just kiddin [00:06] do `sudo apt install -y libssl* openssl*` if you're feelin froggy [00:06] jrp93, yeah i did your idea and its asking if i want to display 317 possiblities [00:07] that's a lot [00:07] maybe try openssl- then tab tab [00:07] or libssl- tab tab [00:07] idk what we're even talking about though. seems like this would be easy to google [00:08] ghostnik11: inxi -Fxxrzc0|pastebinit [00:08] ghostnik11: share url/link here..if you do not get a url/link..say so [00:09] jrp93, oh i got it, tatertots and you were correct i just need to run that command tatertots said then i was able to run sudo apt-get install libssl-dev [00:09] jrp93, i am building/messing with a kernel that will unlock features for an asus t100 and i am so close to accomplishing it [00:10] nirj34, try ubuntu-drivers autoinstall [00:11] you really shouldn't use obscure distros unless you know what you're doing though [00:11] ghostnik11, sounds neat ! [00:11] ghostnik11: cool glad you got it worked out [00:11] jrp93, no actually its great, if it doesn't work well i found out something = it didn't work so try something else [00:12] oh i wasn't saying that toward you. talking to kstudio boy over there [00:13] who know what I've done that I am able to create files and document on gnome desktop? I don't know how it's happened. ???? [00:13] jrp93, but yeah there is a group of these really smart people who all have asus t100 2 in 1 pc and have been doing all types of crazy things to unlock the full potential of the device and so i have been playing with my asus t100 since finding out you could put ubuntu/linux on it. so the guys over from the google plus group have been a huge help [00:14] jrp93, is this the exact command; "sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" ? [00:14] yessuh [00:17] dax, but man in the middle attacks, when downloading some ubuntu .iso. isnt is useless? the hash itself cant be altered. as long as the file has the same hash it wasnt altered? [00:17] jrp93, do you want to help or are you having fun in between your regular weekend chatter? [00:17] dekatch: if you get the ISO over HTTP and get the hash over HTTP and don't check with gnupg, they can just MITM both [00:17] i love to help [00:17] i do think you should just use kubuntu though [00:17] unless there's some major reason you're using that instead [00:18] I asked you how I am going to run that command? [00:18] man in the middle attacks are useless either way. in defintion, even if you are some criminal, as long as the information was gathered in an non official illegal way, you remain free to go. thats at least today's law's in germany [00:18] you said a terminal pops up right ? [00:18] jrp93, syes [00:18] yes* [00:18] is it a bash shell [00:18] or just like a blinking cursor [00:18] I cant boot to gui but to shell, yes [00:18] okay then put it in there and reboot [00:18] it is the terminal that comes up when you do ctrl+alt+f1 [00:19] good there is hope then [00:19] what do I need to "put in there"? [00:19] dax, ok, well, i think the appropriate way to check the hashsum is explained on ubtuntu? [00:19] sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall [00:19] i never had that concern, so i didnt dig into it [00:19] or [00:19] devices instead [00:19] to see if it will even help [00:19] jrp93, I did it, and it said "ubuntu-drivers: command not found" that's why asking [00:19] see, it http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1514593164.png [00:19] Who know how I did it? [00:20] before I can only change background and run settings, and now can create files and folder [00:20] i downloaded my ubuntu version from windows store and i am running ubuntu on WSL. so i didnt even get the chance to check the hashsum [00:20] nirj34, where did you get this distro from [00:21] the url [00:21] ecryptfs-recover-private gives mount(2) system call failed: No such file or directory. [00:22] even from live cd, on multiple private directories [00:23] jrp93, it exists [00:23] jrp93, I installed it long time ago, one sec [00:23] just install kubuntu man [00:24] jrp93, http://kxstudio.linuxaudio.org/ [00:24] it is an audio-centered distro. I dont need K-thing otherwise [00:24] ohh [00:24] neat [00:24] on the contrary, I stay away as far as I can [00:25] @ssw0rd [00:25] !@# [00:26] did you try #kxstudio [00:26] jrp93, yes, thats what I mean [00:26] thank you [00:27] feeditpeanuts: that's due to a problem with the kernel keyring it uses [00:27] I would just install Ubuntu and use the repos to grab w/e software you want http://kxstudio.linuxaudio.org/Repositories [00:30] thanks, I will first try to find a shorter fix [00:32] feeditpeanuts: try first doing "keyctl link @u @s" - this links the user keyring into the user's session keyring [00:34] TJ- mount -t ecryptfs did the job. i'll try your suggesting after backup [00:36] feeditpeanuts: it's a known issue due to some changes to the way systemd uses the kernel keyrings for sessions. The fix is suppposed to be published some time ago but I still get tripped up by it occassionally [00:41] I have the weirdest error. I upgraded to 17.04 and my home made nodejs systemd service stopped working as it should. It is a graphql node app that sends UDP messages to the network. Reciving works, sending does not. If i stop [00:41] If i start the application manual with npm run start , everything works [00:42] But not when it is running in service mode. Anyone has any idea? [00:51] Hi. I've just installed ubuntu 16.04 on a sony laptop. It installed fine. But I can't connect to the network [00:52] It isn't automatically picking up wifi networks [00:52] and I just plugged in an ethernet cable, and it's still not connecting [00:52] I tested the cable. The cable is good [00:52] What are my next troubleshooting tests? [01:03] On the desktop I can see a wifi icon, indicating no connection [01:03] If I access it's menu I can see 'Connection Information' is greyed out [01:04] sunil`: first, figure out the wired connection. How do you connect the laptop to the internet ? to a cable modem? [01:04] hey all since i started using ubuntu over the last year or so i have noticed that i seem to get a load of problems with shutting down and starting up 'a start job is running for xxxx' or the reverse when shutting down [01:04] it makes me sit there for 5 minutes [01:04] i never remember ubuntu being like this [01:06] Hello, I have installed Ubuntu 17.04 on my 1st generation Surface Book (I couldn't install 17.10 because of a graphics card issue), but for some reason my new bootloader (Grub2?) won't show up when I reboot after installation. I've tried running boot-repair from a 17.04 live USB, but I am getting the error "Please enable a repository containing the [linux-generic] packages in the software sources of Ubuntu 17.04 (ubuntupartitionname) [01:06] pavlos: I'm running a home network connected to the world via fibre. From the ISP-supplied modem, an ethernet cable runs to a small hub. I'm running a cable from the hub to the lappy [01:06] I'm not sure of what my next steps should be. [01:07] pavlos: the ISP-supplied modem also offers wifi service. most of the machines in my room are using that wifi network. [01:08] sunil`: the ISP provided modem offers DHCP so your laptop (with wired) should get an IP. Did you reboot the laptop? [01:08] anyone here using ubuntu for playing source-based games? [01:08] sunil`: is the laptop up-to-date with updates? [01:09] I wish I could switch to linux for daily-use, but out-of-the-box CS:GO is not running very well [01:09] pavlos: yes, the modem offers DHCP service. I did reboot lappy once... [01:09] pavlos: I haven't updated since installing, about 40 mins ago. [01:09] sunil`: you cannot update since you dont have connection [01:09] (can't update cos I can't connect to the net) [01:10] pavlos: should I try rebooting? I might as well. It wont hurt anything [01:10] yes, reboot [01:10] rebooting :) [01:12] rebooted! [01:12] faster than I expected [01:12] ok... 'connection information' is still grayed out [01:13] sunil`: look at this (obviously you're using another system to chat here) https://askubuntu.com/questions/767574/no-network-after-upgrade-to-16-04 [01:14] sunil`: see answers with 15 votes [01:14] hi, could somebody tell me how to add an "check if file exist then do run command else skip" on this code? https://paste.ubuntu.com/26282156/ // the if [ -f "/dir/file.ext" ]; then // didnt work [01:15] pavlos: looking... === esteban is now known as Guest85640 [01:17] pavlos: /etc/systemd/network exists, but it is empty [01:18] sunil`: that is a dir, under that create a 20-dhcp if that file does not exist [01:18] particularly the # if [ -f "/dir"*.*" ]; then didnt work [01:19] particularly the # if [ -f "/dir/*.*" ]; then didnt work [01:19] it still displayed an "no such file or directory" error message [01:20] so it obviously skipped the if, then, else code i added [01:20] pavlos: will do. I also just tried something, so I'm rebooting that laptop again [01:20] dekatch: is there a different paste? connot see the code [01:21] pavlos, https://paste.ubuntu.com/26282156/ [01:21] dekatch: not in that pone [01:22] dekatch: there is no [ -f file ] in that paste [01:22] its two different languages who dont work together am i right TJ- ? [01:22] pavlos, yea i deleted my attempt to "if then else" becuase it didnt work [01:23] dekatch: you can't use "-f" and a shell glob, it has to be a single file as in "if [ -f "/path/to/file" ]; then ..." === semeion is now known as mnemonic [01:24] pavlos, it was an: # if [ -f "/dir/*.*" ]; then [01:24] HERE WAS THE STUFF IN THE SCRIPT else fi [01:24] pavlos, it was an: # if [ -f "/dir/*.*" ]; then HERE WAS THE STUFF IN THE SCRIPT else fi === precise is now known as precise|ducks [01:24] else echo "no file" fi *** === precise|ducks is now known as precise [01:25] uhm. but those generated files are random name TJ- , i cant define an specific name gosh [01:25] dekatch: the -f looks for a regular file ... *.* is not [01:26] dekatch: [ -f /etc/hosts ] is true [01:27] how could i make the check if file so that it looks for *.* pavlos ? [01:27] is there a way? [01:27] pavlos: k, I created that file and populated it with the content in that answer. THen I rebooted. Still no network. [01:27] pavlos: it might be worth mentioning: this is a clean install. Not an upgrade [01:27] pavlos: we wiped over windows 10 [01:28] pavlos: we are reasonable certain that the hardware and the cable are good: networking was working under windows 10. [01:29] whois sunil` [01:29] sunil`: did you install using EFI? [01:29] oops [01:29] millz, busted xd [01:29] you did run an whois on somebody, and that visible to all. you creeped out xd [01:29] sunil`: you should "try ubuntu" to verify that things work prior to installing [01:30] pavlos: what is EFI? [01:30] sunil`: UEFI ... that microsoft thing [01:30] uefi is the new bios [01:30] bios / uefi [01:31] sunil`: https://www.howtogeek.com/56958/htg-explains-how-uefi-will-replace-the-bios/ [01:31] lol to be fair dekatch I used to work with a person named sunil [01:31] thats where the curiosity came from [01:31] pavlos: I think I've got a live CD of kali around. I might test the system with that [01:31] ... or just install Kali [01:32] sunil`: try first to make sure you get an ip from the modem [01:33] hi (and happy new year all); i'm trying to remotely diagnose a problem with an ubuntu server box that seems to have suffered some hardware failure (probably disc). i've got as far as a root shell into the machine, thankfully, but wondering what the best way to proceed is. [01:33] to do what strixUK [01:34] wow and thats a huge spectrum avail. [01:34] first, looking at dmesg, i suspect a failed disc (there are four in the machine, and the probably-failed disc isn't root - that's an SSD), so i see errors in dmesg which aren't hugely enlightening. what next, SMART? [01:34] there's [01:34] dekatch: to diagnose exactly what's preventing the machine from booting normally (it's failing over to emergency mode because - i suspect - a disc in an LVM pv is sad) [01:35] dekatch: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6363441/check-if-a-file-exists-with-wildcard-in-shell-script [01:35] so first i have to identify the underlying hardware fault. [01:35] dekatch: "find /path/to/dir -type f 'name '*.*' -ls" [01:37] strixUK: you can grep for that disk in dmesg and see the errors, smartctl will test the disk and give you a lot of info. Backup first your disk b/c after it fails you're sol [01:38] as long as smartctl does nothing destructively without explicitly being told to do so it should be okay. [01:38] strixUK: dmesg | grep error [01:38] besides, everything i actually care about is on an lvm mirror anyway [01:38] strixUK: dmesg | grep sda (if sda if your disk) [01:39] pavlos, i think thats exactly what i did. here is the full script how i approached it https://paste.ubuntu.com/26282279/ [01:39] dekatch: there is a comma instead of a dot [01:40] dekatch: line 1 [01:40] oh nvm, that. that was an type. i had *.* [01:40] it right [01:40] typo* [01:40] but it didnt work. it displayed an "no such file or directory" error [01:41] so that if then else didnt work :( [01:42] the script after ; then. still does its job [01:43] so i was curios that those two commands dont go together.. because the same if then else script worked well with an find then cp command [01:43] but "for f ; do done" is something different. and it is some command i cross searched from various tutorials and threads gosh lol [01:44] * dekatch feels like he shouldnt talk xd [01:46] Why are you running scripts if you don't know what they do [01:46] pavlos, . this worked well https://paste.ubuntu.com/26282318/ [01:46] dekatch: does this work? for f in /tmp/*; do echo $f ; done [01:46] same syntax. but the command after ; then is different [01:48] kenrin, well i know what they do. i first check if a file exist and then i copy it to some directory, the other script has to check if a file exist and then renames it to its directory name and a third script later has to move them all to some prev folder [01:48] the basic command works. just the "check if file" doesnt work [01:49] sounds kinda confusing. i just read what i wrote lol [01:50] but they key function works. just the "check if file" on my second script doesnt work as intented :( [01:50] it displays many errors when i run it [01:51] dekatch: change the for loop to look for * not *.* [01:52] dekatch: and echo $f so you know whats going on [02:01] kenrin, well i know what they do. i first check if a folder exists and then i cd into that folder and copy the first file (numerical order) to another directory, the other script has to check if a file exist and then rename it to its directory name and a third script later has to move them all to some prev folder [02:02] feel like i should be more consistent on correct grammr. gosh [02:03] i hate me for not being some linux guru :( those are so worthy around our com. wish i could work as some programmer or as dev or in some data centre [02:03] ill try that pavlos thank you [02:06] the background on my attempt is setting up some surveillance stuff. its all hobby, but i appreciate your help very much [02:06] but when i fail i can life on :P lol [02:25] pavlos: thanks; grepping for errors, in this case, is not being super helpful because the problem involves lvm. what's super weird is that i am next to certain that the "failed" disc has two LVs on it, one of which is mirrored, and pvdisplay -m seems to suggest that's okay (though it's possible it might actually only be using one of the two mirrors) [02:26] the second of the two LVs on that PV is the one that is throwing errors (block page reads) [02:26] which suggests that that the disc is at least partly working, but perhaps there are bad sectors where the second LV is [02:28] it's also complaining that it doesn't know what the PV name of the broken LV is, even though it does with the first LV [02:28] there *are* some errors in dmesg, but those relate to an LV on another disc again that is actually working just fine [02:30] hola, algun hispanohablante ?

[02:35] dekatch, I switch to tty3 and can log in without an issue [02:36] uhm, no idea then i guess [02:36] If I pkill my user, I can then log into the GUI [02:36] krat0s: https://wiki.debian.org/rt2800usb [02:36] sounds strange overall [02:37] dekatch, Strange yes, but plenty of problems with the same issue in the forums [02:37] krat0s, /join #ubuntu-es [02:38] Hello, can somebody tell me what is the kde default shortcut key for maximize my active window?

I have a more custom setup than standard ubuntu kde, going to head over to #kde [02:46] thanks [02:46] no need to be sorry. just had some generic thought i think most had. but i am also just an user, but my first attempt is to feed search engines with my question [03:09] I am having problem loading ppa [03:11] I get a message that there is no pubkey [03:12] Public key not available [03:12] Gpg error [03:14] How do i go about adding the pubkey [03:15] I am trying to get plasma to update within kubuntu [03:16] I am trying to use the kubuntu backports ppa [03:16] is the best way to install packages to use apt-get? [03:17] whats the difference between apt-get wget, apt install, curl -L etc.. [03:17] im so confused [03:19] apt-get gets packages from repositories, wget gets things from http or ftp, apt install installs things from repository, curl is similar to wget [03:26] how do you go about vetting a PPA? are the ones we find on launchpad generally ok? [03:26] they're 3rd party completely unsupported. anyone can make a ppa [03:27] it seems there's quite a bit of ppa's in those regards Ben64 [03:28] What does it mean that ppa has a key [03:29] I am having problem with an update because ppa has a gpg error.... It is not signed [03:31] I get message that there is no point [03:31] Pubkey [03:32] Ben64, are those things we randomly come across on launchpad/ppa's the only way they can be installed (i.e. not compiled on our own). For example, let's take firefox-esr. how would you install that? [03:33] klebane: Pastebin ' sudo apt update ' so we see the PPA source and the error in context . [03:33] so if im installing one package using wget, another from apt-get and another packing using apt install, is this bad practice? [03:33] will just make everything messy? [03:33] Ben64, for context, I installed the PPA repository for firefox esr 1st [03:34] and then installed firefox-esr afterwards from the command line... not sure if I could have avoided the ppa command line inclusions altogether [03:35] that PPA was from the mozilla team but now that you mentioned it and googling a bit more, it shows that particular firefox esr has a bunch of different folks posting their own PPA related to firefox esr [03:36] so the question was more on a best practice approach habit to keep in mind while beginning to use ubuntu [03:38] here is what I get when I do sudo apt update: [03:38] sudo apt update Get:1 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu artful InRelease [20.7 kB] Hit:2 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu artful InRelease Get:3 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu artful-updates InRelease [78.6 kB] Get:4 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu artful-security InRelease [78.6 kB] Err:1 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu artful InRelease The following signatur [03:38] sudo apt update Get:1 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu artful InRelease [20.7 kB] Hit:2 http://archive.ubuntu [03:39] The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 2836CB0A8AC93F7A Reading package lists...

[05:10] us is all i know, America A1 [05:10] Auzi, mate hard rest [05:10] why is gnome-software so buggy [05:11] (no particular problem, just wondering) [05:11] edisonbulb: we dont take polls here mate [05:11] bugs are from lack of user experience [05:11] edisonbulb: if you find something buggy, i sggest a !bug [05:12] my experience installing regular packages is okay, but installing snap packages in gnome-software for me has had an almost 100% fail rate even on clean installs [05:12] seems that way [05:13] edisonbulb: please explain fail rate [05:14] definition of fail: the package fails to install midway & the cancel button does not actually cancel ; definition of success: the package installs without issue ; definition of fail rate: an informal approximation of the ratio of fails to successes [05:14] fail rate? depends if you can code theres lots of solutions if you understand terminal commands [05:15] i guess i can't really complain unless i'm willing to roll up my sleeves and actually contribute :) [05:15] this is my first my friend popinh my cheery [05:16] hello everyone!

[05:17] yup [05:47] hey are the sets of tools to build a kernel the same sets as it is in ubuntu as it would be in another distro === dah85_ is now known as dah85 [05:57] hello === toshi is now known as s0s51 [06:01] hello [06:02] s0s51: Hello, ubuntu issue ? === dreamscrypt is now known as dreamscript === dreamscript is now known as dreamScript === EriC^^ is now known as Guest1009 === Guest1009 is now known as EriC^ [06:45] Need help. I am trying to follow this guide for manual full system encryption. However, before installing Ubuntu, I don't have an option for "Use as" to "EFI System Partition" " for the ESP parition. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManualFullSystemEncryption/DetailedProcessInstallUbuntu === fb is now known as Guest84796 [07:19] Zythyr, are you trying to install to a uefi machine? [07:20] EriC^ I am testing in VirtualBox [07:20] Zythyr: ah, so legacy [07:21] yep virtualbox don't do uefi [07:21] Zythyr: nevermind the part about the efi partition, just select the disk as the location for bootloader and it'll install grub there [07:21] EriC^ Acutally I just saw an option in VirtualBox for EFI enable. I never kew it was there [07:21] Zythyr: yeah, but after installing it won't work with ubuntu, you'll get an uefi shell [07:21] it work with only windows i think [07:21] So i don't have to create a ESP parition? [07:21] Zythyr: nope, that's only for uefi [07:22] So when I do the real install on the laptop that suports UEFI, I HAVE to create teh ESP partition? [07:23] Zythyr: yeah, it wont boot without it [07:24] Okay but for the ESP parition I still don't see the option "Use as EFI system parition". Was it renamed to something else in Ubuntu 16? [07:25] Zythyr: i think you just double click on it and select efi somewhere [07:25] I see the option "Reserved BIOS boot area". Is that the same as "EFI System Parition" [07:25] no [07:26] maybe cause you're booted in legacy mode it doesn't offer the option? [07:26] EriC^ https://imgur.com/a/tmTxb [07:28] Zythyr: is there anything other than Use as? such as type or so? [07:30] EriC^ Nvm, I just fixed it. In VirtualBox, I went to Settings>>System and Enabled EFI [07:30] Now it shows me hte option [07:31] ah cool [07:32] * alkisg confirms that virtualbox properly supports ubuntu efi installations, he has some of them... [07:32] EriC^ Thanks for pointing me the EFI settings. I am still a noob so don't understand much for this EFI stuff [07:32] Good morning all btw [07:33] alkisg: out of the box? i always got a shell after installing in uefi mode [07:33] Yes, out of the box [07:33] My host is stock 16.04 [07:33] Zythyr: no problem [07:33] alkisg: that is odd, i've only ever tried with 14.04 tbh [07:34] EriC^: maybe there were bug fixes in 16.04 for it... [07:34] EriC^ alkisg Do you guys know much about encryption? [07:35]
