Bashing-omRichardCavell: K; See what I can learn .. back soonest .00:05
Bashing-omRichardCavell: Well, All I know to do is try . Be aware some 32 bit apps are now broken after the latest patches . unknow to me if the breakage is a part of this :(00:13
RichardCavellBashing-om, What exactly should I try?00:15
Bashing-omRichardCavell: Boot to grub boot menu. 'c' key for a command line . what results here ' set prefix=(hd0,gpt1)/boot/grub ' ?00:17
RichardCavellBashing-om, I'll have to reboot and try it, and get back to you in about 15 mins00:18
Bashing-omRichardCavell: K; of that is accepted we continue on to attempt to boot up from grub .00:18
Bashing-omof/if*00:18
RichardCavellBashing-om, Okay so I'll just reboot and try?00:19
Bashing-omripazha: Yes .. see where we go from there .. get it booted and then we see what we can do .00:21
vooks there any reasonably simple way to direct dpkg to ignore a specific dependency on a package (without recreating the package).  LXD is unnecessarily depending on dnsmasq-base, a package that is frequently found to have security flaws.00:24
=== noxs_ is now known as noxs
naccvook: `man dpkg`, --ignore-depends, etc.00:28
naccvook: although, it's not unnecessary, it depends on your config00:28
naccvook: for normal bridged usage, you want dnsmasq00:28
vookright, it's unnecessary in our config00:28
naccvook: maybe use the snap?00:29
naccvook: then you don't have to worry about dependencies at all00:29
vookhmm, ok. thanks.  I'll look into it.00:29
naccvook: presuming you trust the lxd maintainers00:29
naccvook: may want to ask about dnsmasq in #lxcontainers00:29
RichardCavellBashing-om, I'm back00:36
RichardCavellBashing-om, I was able to type that into a grub command line. It simply gave me another prompt without any error or other output. I then tried to boot, but it had the same problem as before.00:37
Bashing-omRichardCavell: Can we continue to see if we can boot .. in that 'set prefix=(hd0,gpt6)/boot/grub" is accepted ?00:37
RichardCavellI used gpt1 before not gpt600:37
RichardCavelldo you want me to try with 6?00:38
Bashing-omRichardCavell: Great .. we can continue .. ok .. boot back to grub ' set prefix=(hd0,gpt1)/boot/grub ; set root=(hd0,gpt2) ; insmod normal ; normal ; insmod linux ; linux (hd0,gpt2)/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda2 ; initrd (hd0,gpt2)/initrd.img ; boot ' .00:43
Bashing-omRichardCavell: No, our partitions are gpt1 as the edi partition and gpt2 as the root .00:44
Bashing-omEFI*00:44
RichardCavellBashing-om, By the way, that first partition is only 1 megabyte in size00:46
RichardCavellI don't know where it came from00:46
Bashing-omRichardCavell: That is the EFI partiton that contains stage 1.5 of the boot code .00:47
RichardCavellIs it normal for it to be only 1 megabyte?00:47
Bashing-omRichardCavell: Yeah .. good nuff ..it only has directives of where grub is to look next .00:48

HaximusHey there all, I'm brand new to Linux and I've been setting up a Ubuntu server.  Had a simple question regarding SSH keys, just not fully understanding it.  Anyone have a moment to talk?01:08
electricmilkHaximus, Go ahead and ask the quetion01:09
electricmilkHaximus, If someone knows the answer they will help. :-)01:09
HaximusExcellent!  I was following along some documentation suggesting that I use SSH authentication to access my server instead of Password authorization, I later realized that I misunderstood what I read, because I generated the key pair from the actual server and not from my desktop that I am using to access my terminal01:12
HaximusSo now I want to correct the mistake, but I am not sure if I should generate another key pair from the terminal on my desktop pc, and also I am curious if the fact that I generated the keypair from the server itself will cause any issues, and if I should remove it01:14
HaximusI am unable to login from my desktop pc, so I had to re-enable password authentication for the time being01:15
RichardCavellBashing-om, Hi01:16
electricmilkHaximus, I don't remember ever having to generate the key pair.  If I remember correctly I just ran: sudo apt-get install openssh-server01:16
RichardCavellI tried that sequence. It booted for about 8 seconds and then just sudden reset like before01:17
RichardCavellI couldn't see any errors in the boot sequence01:17
HaximusIts not a requirement, its just apparently more secure01:17
Tin_manHaximus, when I set my server up several years ago, this link helped when I had key problems. I might help you, not sure http://www.howtogeek.com/168147/add-public-ssh-key-to-remote-server-in-a-single-command/01:17
electricmilkHaximus,  And then used sudo service ssh status to check the status of the ssh server01:17
Tin_manIt*01:17
Bashing-omRichardCavell: Ouch . Sorry. I just do not know enough to procecute this further .01:19
RichardCavellBashing-om, How about this?  I zip up the /home/richard directory from the internal hard disk, then wipe and install a new distro over the top, then unzip /home/richard.  Sound good01:21
RichardCavell?01:21
Bashing-omRichardCavell: Well. should be good to get you back up .. yes .. But does not tell us why/where the failure lies .01:23
RichardCavellBashing-om, Is it generally the case that zipping/unzipping one's home directory is enough to salvage everything that's important?01:25
RichardCavell(All my important data is safe, don't worry)01:26
Bashing-omRichardCavell: Depends on what changes you have made to the default install system files . Me, all I backup is my personal data and I keep a change log of all changes I make . ( rsync -aiv --exclude=".*" /home/sysop/ /media/sysop/8023-774F/storage/ )01:28
Fretegievening folks01:33
Haximushow can I delete all of the contents of my /home/user/.ssh directory?01:36
HaximusNVM, think I got it01:39
FretegiHaximus, rm -rf /home/usr/.ssh/* will nuke everything in the directory.  if you want to keep interior directories forget the 'r'01:40
Haximusok, I used rm /home/usr/.ssh/* before you said that01:41
Haximusis that just as efficient?01:41
HaximusI ran ls -al ~/.ssh and it all seems to be cleared01:41
FretegiHaximus, for that directory unless u did something goofy ya should be fine. /usr/.ssh likely doesnt have any interior directories or hidden files.  if you did have hidden files we have to tweak even what i sent you a little.  but if ls -la shows it cleared then you should be good01:42
HaximusThank you for your help, much appreciated!01:43
Fretegianytime my freind01:43
Fretegiok my turn now ha01:43
Fretegirunning ubuntu mate 16.04.3, amd64.  recently upgraded to kernel 4.13.0-26 and now many things lock up, most often is caja.  system is completely unusable.  if i boot into a prior kernel the machine runs perfectly.  any thoughts? or whats an easy way to down grade the kernel without bocking new update01:43
Fretegii mean i could just uninstall the kernel and purge and the linux-image... however the next update should grab it again and i dont want that.  anyway to do what would be the equivalent of a 'mask' in gentoo?  whereby you just block a set version or range of versions on a package?01:46
HaximusIll get back to you in a couple years :-/01:47
FretegiHaximus, haha it comes way faster than u think :)01:47
mutanteFretegi: normal package updates don't update the kernel01:47
mutanteonly if you'd specifically tell it to dist-upgrade01:48
mutantewould it pull the kernel image too01:48
Fretegimutante, apt-get dist-upgrade does though.01:48
mutantewell, then don't run that ?01:48
Fretegimutante, right, and i would like to keep latest kernels01:48
mutanteeh, ok, then i'm confused what the desired result was.. newer kernel or no newer kernel01:49
Fretegimutante, let me rephrase... i would like to have current kernels, however skip this current broken one01:49
mutantegot it, well.. just wait until there is a "next" one01:49
Bashing-omFretegi: How about setting the prior booting kernel in the /etc/default/grub config file ?01:49
Fretegiso when the next one comes out i wont get prompted until it supersedes his broken one01:49
FretegiBashing-om, that would work, just make the 4.10 kernel default.  although admittedly im not sure how to accomplish that in ubuntu01:50
FretegiBashing-om, edit the GRUB_DEFAULT line?01:51
Fretegimake it 1 perhaps?01:52
Bashing-omFretegi: this line ' GRUB_DEFAULT=0 ' change the zero to the line number of the kernel ya want booted ( as shown in grub's boot menu ) .. then run ' sudo update-grub ' to propagate the change .01:52
Fretegiha ok, makes sense01:52
Fretegicourse... suppose to mutante's point..  guess i could just uninstall the darn thing and just not upgrade until i see a release higher than this broken one...01:53
Fretegijust wanted apt-get to sort it out and not tell me until there was a newer one :)01:54
Bashing-omFretegi: Yup. either will work . I think editing grub to boot is the more sane thing myself .01:55

FretegiBashing-om, so to be clear, when setting the value for Grub_default, thats counting recovery boot option lines as well right01:57
Bashing-omFretegi: Yeah .. as you can surmise the count starts at 0 .01:58
Bashing-omhreinnbeck: take a look at /boot/grub/grub.cfg for the boot order too .02:00
Fretegibrb02:02
HyD3Count off02:10
ChetManlycan I have aptitude autp update?02:10
FretegiBashing-om, ok got it02:15
Fretegicouldnt get grub to cooperate so i just wiped that kernel version heck with it02:15
Bashing-omFretegi: K. What works best for you :)02:16

hfpHi, I'm serving files to my kodi box from an ubuntu server via NFS. Once in a while, when I watch something, the playback hangs as if the NFS server stopped transmitting. I'm not sure what's going on so I checked /var/log/syslog, but I couldn't see anything around the time the issue happened. Is there anywhere else I can look on the server?03:27
kenrinDoes it hang outside of kodi?  That seems like more of a kodi issue from the light search on forum.kodi.tv I did03:33
GIGeoGamerTest03:38
GIGeoGamerI am attempting to install Ubuntu so that I can dual boot. Win10 is already installed. I am new to linux and would rather NOT unintentionally overwrite Windows. Does ubuntu ask for the language first or for the partition setup?03:47
glitchdanyone have any scripting knowledge in here?03:51
glitchdim trying to put together a script that runs xscreensaver, and if it gets deactivated, runs it again. but i dont want it to run in a loopm, since it prints messages on the screen saying something along the lines of "xscreensaver was activated while it was already running". i dont want it to print messages on the screen, just want it to run and rerun if deactivated. i want it to run until i tell it to stop.03:53
ZythyrI created a USB installer for Ubuntu Server. It takes me directly to installation. How can I get to the terminal prior to installation?03:54
Zythyr^ ignore the previous question03:57
ZythyrQuestion: I created  live USB of Ubuntu Desktop. However, is there a way I can install Ubuntu Server instead of Ubuntu Desktop if I am using Ubuntu Desktop live USB03:58
glitchdZythyr, sudo apt-get update04:02
glitchdsudo apt-get install ubuntu-server04:02
ZythyrSo I just do that from terminal?04:02
glitchdyep04:03
glitchdthen i think you choose it from the login menu before you login04:03
glitchdyou can also do it like this..04:04
glitchdYes Ubuntu desktop can become server by installing following packages04:04
glitchdLAMP server (Linux, Apache2, MySQL, PHP), Mail server & OpenSSH server04:04
Zythyrglitchd That simple? Is that the only difference?04:05
glitchdas far as im finding with all this google-fu im doing04:06
glitchdbut ive done it in the past04:06
glitchdconverted a normal ubunut installation to a server edition installation04:06
glitchdusing those commands04:06
ZythyrAfter installing LAMP server, I can disable Deskto GUI. But will this be a true server that doesn't comsume as much power as a Desktop?04:06
glitchdthats the only real difference between normal ubuntu and ubuntu-server04:06
glitchdim not sure about your last question04:07
Zythyrokay. I think I just found my way around Ubuntu Server, so I guess I'll just isntall Server using Server USB instead of Desktop USB. It was a littel confusing at first configuring the partitions, but now got it working04:09
krytarikGIGeoGamer: Here is a run-through to the installation: https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-install-ubuntu-desktop#004:09
glitchdYou could disable the display manager service with systemctl for example if your display manager is lightdm the run sudo systemctl disable lightdm.service. This will prevent the service from starting at boot.04:10

Then after a few seconds I get a 2/3's purple screen with a black strip at the top. All of which has some white lines and dot's on it that look like squished text.04:16

Energizehello04:35
Energizeanyone here04:36
GIGeoGamerUbuntu 16.04. When I click install it shows the screen I mentioned above^ the white text says a few things. failed to create kernel channel, and then some base-x timeouts. Again I am new to this so not sure. After a few seconds on that screen it moves me to the second screen where it is stuck until I force power off04:36
GIGeoGamerIt does the same thing if I click on try without installing04:37
glitchd  your trying to install ubuntu from a live usb?04:37
GIGeoGamerYes04:37
glitchdi think you need to make the usb again04:38
glitchdprobably a bad write04:38
glitchdwhat did you use to make the usb?04:38
GIGeoGamerThat is the strange part. For some reason I was getting this error, then something I changed made it work, now its not working again. I used rufus (Same thing I used to make the boot stick for my laptop)04:38
glitchdhmm...04:39
glitchdi would suggest making a new usb04:39
GIGeoGamerAlso04:39
GIGeoGamerWhen I say "made it work" I mean I was able to get to the installer but the resolution was horrible. The bottom of all the buttons at the bottom of the installer were cut off04:40
GIGeoGamerNot sure if that is normal however it may be worth mentioning I have a dedicated nvdia gfx card. I hear that sometimes causes issues?04:40
glitchdsounds like your resolution was incorrect for you display04:40
glitchdwhen you boot the usb, does it go to a menu, or does it boot straight to the ubuntu desktop?04:41
GIGeoGamerIt lets me choose try, install, oem or something. Then when I click on try OR install it does the things mentioned above.04:42

ZythyrNeed help. On my laptop which has a Gigabit ethernet card, I am only getting 100Mb/s. I checked this using "sudo ethtool en0". It says Speed: 100Mb/s07:45
lotuspsychjeZythyr: tell us your real issue?07:46
ZythyrWhy is the ethernet link speed being set to 100Mb/s when its a gigabit ethernet card07:46
oerhekscould be different reasons, the router is 100 mbit, the cabe is cat5, and not suitable for 100 mbit ..07:47
hateballZythyr: what does ethtool claim as supported and advertised modes?07:49
hateballZythyr: I mean does it claim gigabit there, but link speed is 100mb?07:50
ZythyrIt claims to be Gigabit but link speed is set to 100Mb/s. Here is my output from terminal https://pastebin.mozilla.org/907611807:51
arktvrvscat5 isnt suitable for 100mbit?07:52
ZythyrI connected it directly to a fully working ethernet cable. I tested 3 different working ethernet ports. All are good07:52
dv`_it says Link partner advertised link modes: 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full07:53
dv`_link partner being the other end07:53
hateballarktvrvs: you'd want cat5e, and unless your cable is like 15 years old it is07:54
Zythyrdv`_ What does that mean07:54
hateballZythyr: It means whatever you're connecting to supports 100mbit max07:55
Zythyrbtw I tessted using cate6e ethernet cabile07:55
oerheksZythyr, did it ever work, 1000 mbit?07:55
ZythyrSo does that mean the phsyical ethernet connection is only set to 100 instead of 1000?07:57
dv`_well clearly the transfer rate between two things can only be the minimum of what they both support07:58
Zythyr2So does that mean the phsyical ethernet connection is only set to 100 instead of 1000?07:58

Radkoshello guys10:40
Radkosdo you know by any chance why some icons are missing from my system tray in ubuntu 14.04 with unity10:41
Radkosas far as I know blacklisting systray icons are removed feature so there is nothing do with dconf10:41
Radkosfor instance xchat is missing and utox is not showing10:42
Radkosin gnome shell I can see 'em10:42
oerheksxchat .. don' t use that, is unmaintained, use the supported fork, hexchat10:43
oerheksicons missing .. sudo dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ && setsid unity # and logout/login10:44
Radkosif so the icon is not there if start them from terminal I don't see any output saying anything so unity has to keep them unseen10:44
oerheksif that does not solve, rm -rf ~/.config10:45
Radkosok I'll try that10:45

vyHey! I am using 16.04 LTS on a MacbookPro 13". I am being told that Apple has released EFI updates for OSX. Anything similar in the Ubuntu land?11:34
JoniiHello. I'd want to uninstall ubuntu. There's nothing valuable on the partition ubuntu resides in, and I'm using another OS(Windows 10) on that computer11:34
BluesKajJ3089TE, apt doesn't determine ipv6 or 4 , your networking sweup does11:34
BluesKajsetup11:34
JoniiI'm thinking of just using partitioning tool to handle this, but I'm worried the boot sector would somehow be messed up if I did so11:35
adacis the ppa  webupd8team/java broken? getting a 404 when apt tries to install oracle-java8-installer11:37
JoniiIt's made more problematic by the fact that I'm not actually sure the ubuntu boot loader thing that by default does multi-booting is even running. I ran some cleaning program on windows which said it would streamline booting, and I assumed it would get rid of ubuntu bootloader thing... but I 'm not sure it did. :O11:37
JoniiBasically, I'm very very tempted to just delete the partition, but I thought I should ask first if anyone can spot that I'm making a terrible mistake somehow11:38

BluesKajJonii, I think grug is auto installed into the /efi/boot partition so removing it would be a mistake11:40
BluesKajgrub11:40
BluesKajif you use auto installation11:40
JoniiOkay, so, how do I uninstall ubuntu?11:42
Joniidualbooting machine, and at the moment I can't even figure out how to get into the ubuntu anymore11:43
SysGhostSimply remove the partitions. Once you install another OS, it'll write over grub's MBR code11:43
JoniiI was dualbooting11:44
JoniiI want to make the other OS the only OS11:44
Joniiso I'm not installing any new OS11:44
BluesKajJonii, hold down the left shift key to get the grub bootloader when booting11:44
SysGhostthen boot up that OS's rescue/instll media, and repair the boot routine (I assume it's Windows)11:44
JoniiBluesKaj: I'll try11:45
JoniiIt's OEM windows11:45
JoniiLeft shift didn't work?11:48
SysGhostTry this: https://neosmart.net/EasyRE/11:48
SysGhostthat have options to repair the boot routine for the installed windows.11:48
Neo4what might I install for send mail on ubuntu? MTA?11:48
Neo4mail transfer agent?11:48
Neo4what does do mail transfer agent?11:48
JoniiSysGhost, I should mention, I haven't actually done anything yet. I'm trying to figure out the safest way to do the uninstallation process11:49
SysGhostNormal routine to uninstall any linux distribution on a dual boot machine, is to restore the boot record from withing the OS one want to keep, once done, the partitions that isn't in use anymore can be removed.11:49
SysGhostso the simple way would be: Boot up Windows, restore MBR, delete linux-related partitions. reclaim the unused space in ways one see fit.11:51
BluesKajSysGhost, thewre's no mbr on uefi machines11:52
SysGhostIn that case there's nothing else to be done but to remove the partitions. One can simp0ly tell the USFI boot order to boot windows directly.11:53
SysGhostUEFI*11:53
BluesKaj!uefi11:53
ubottuUEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI11:53
BluesKajSysGhost, it's not that simple11:54
SysGhostNeat thing with UEFI, is that one can have multiple boot entries in the NVRAM. Delete the grub entry there, and let it default back to "Windows loader"11:54
parvathyHi, how to list the available trays of a printer in ubuntu11:55
=== parvathy is now known as Guest7555
Guest7555Im using ubuntu 14.0411:55
SysGhostChanging UEFI boot entries can easily be done from within the UEFI setup menu. (Unless it's a really dumbed down variant some OEM manufacturers use. In that case either use windows own boot restoration method, or see linux command "efibootmgr")11:57
SysGhostif one feel uncomfortable with commands, the neosmart tool I linked above does wonders with a simple UI.12:00
SysGhostGuest7555: from command line?12:07
apixhas anyone got issues with WebUpd8 ppa ? Im getting a 404 when trying to install oracle-java8-installer12:07
JoniiOkay, I checked, UEFI manager says boot priority number 1 is "Windows boot manager"12:14
JoniiThat means i'm free to just delete the ubuntu partitions?12:14
jimb_apix, I was able to check http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu via apt-get update without an issue. I should mentino that PPA's are not supported in this channel though :(12:15
BluesKajas lonhas you don't delete /efi/boot12:15
BluesKajas long as , Jonii12:16
JoniiUmm... How do I do that, or more specifically, how do I not do that?12:16
JoniiI was thinking using Windows partition manager to just destroy everything. Though it doesn't recognize ubuntu file systems at all, so it's a bit annoying12:17
BluesKaj!gparted | Jonii12:17
ubottuJonii: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php12:17
JoniiYou mean I should use that?12:18
JoniiBecause as it stands, seems I can't even boot into ubuntu on that computer12:18
BluesKajor you can install gparted on a usb stick,Jonii , you don't need ubuntu to do that12:19
Joniiif I have to boot from usb stick, I've probably got some Ubuntu distro laying around12:20
Kingsydoes anyone know if bluez supports LDAC ?12:20
BluesKaja very handy tool.. timeto learn about partitioning, Jonii12:20

neuromute9hey folks, i'm trying to compile an old piece of software (svg2pdf) and at present it throws an error on make, cannot find lgdk_pixbuf-2.013:57
die7ubuntu is just horrible os13:58
neuromute9I've installed the libgdk_pixbuf-2.0-dev package, but it doesn't pick up on it.  How does one work round this?  The required library being lgdk... and not libgdk...13:58
neuromute9die7, you in here just to say that?13:58
leftyfbdie7: because you can't figure something out? Good luck going through life with that attitude13:59
die7neuromute9: Oh I can say even more13:59
AQi want a partation for back , how to create it ? thx in advance13:59
die7leftyfb: I can, it s not issue on my side its definetly a crap13:59
die7if ubuntu use kickstart than it should also work properly13:59
die7just look to centos13:59
neuromute9die7, so, use one of the hundreds/thousands of other OSes available to you?13:59
leftyfbdie7: so why does kickstart work for me any everyone else using it?14:00
die7leftyfb: then show me your kickstart14:00
die7leftyfb: u sue LVM14:00
die7*use14:00
die7can install grub do sdb14:00
leftyfbdie7: I showed you a working kickstart example that I based mine on. Which works perfectly.14:00
die7shom me that and then all is fine14:00
leftyfbdie7: lets not make assumptions. I do not always use LVM and most of the time, I only have a single drive14:01
AQi want a partation for backup, how to create it ? thx in advance14:01
leftyfbAQ: gparted14:01
die7leftyfb: exactly kickstart of ubuntu does not support LVM14:01
AQit is not available14:01
die7and server without LVM is just crap14:01
leftyfbdie7: lose the attitude or you'll cease to receive any further help in here14:02

die7leftyfb: some ppl can not live with bad/honest feedback14:02
die7leftyfb: I used now ks from link you posted..and guess14:03
die7leftyfb: not working..it fails to configure network14:03
TJ-die7: have you pastebin-ed your kickstart file ?14:03
die7TJ-: no14:04
Southern_GentlemAQ, yes a partiton is a the disk level14:04
leftyfbdie7: the you have an issue with your configuration. Also, that is NOTHING to do with LVM or grub14:04
TJ-die7: we cannot help if we cannot see the configuration that is failing, and any error messages seen14:04
die7leftyfb: not realy since one which i created with --gernerate works, except it does not install grub to disk14:04
AQhttps://paste.ubuntu.com/26404630/ , i want to shrink 919 gb and create another partation ext414:05
leftyfbdie7: so instead of posting what you have and giving exact error messages to help you troubleshoot, you'd rather we just do the work for you by just giving you a working config that suits your personal needs perfectly?14:06
die7leftyfb: I do not belive U have any working kickstart14:06
die7not belive this work with bubuntu14:06
die7im out..no wory, no hel;s needed, once this sad project is done..went back to centos again14:07

die7this kickstart should work with 16.414:07

Southern_GentlemAQ you realize that with that single hard that means a full reinstall14:08
TJ-die7: possibly not; that example was written in 2006 for Ubuntu 6.0614:08
AQlike in windows we create partation , one for os and another for data , i want to do that in ubuntu14:08
die7https://pastebin.com/dFFrmZFh14:09
die7this one works but installer means: you chosed to not install grub...wthf???14:09
Southern_GentlemAQ,  yes but shrinking / is different than shrinking C:14:09
leftyfbdie7: that is an example. It would probably work if you took at as an example and did some work to look through it and make sure it fits your environment. I can already see 1 issue that I can almost guarantee will make it work for you14:09
Southern_Gentlemand you were told gparted14:09
Southern_Gentlemand i advise you to do the shrinking from a live14:10
leftyfbdie7: I also see a potential problem with the kickstart you posted14:10
Southern_Gentlemin facts you cannot do this to a running system the way you are currently setup14:10
die7leftyfb: the one in pastebin?14:10
leftyfbthat's what I said14:10
AQhow , i am noob14:11
die7leftyfb: menas14:11
leftyfbdie7: why are you listing all those packages to get installed manually?14:11
die7leftyfb: this ks is created by systemc-cofig-kickstart --generate14:11
leftyfbdie7: remove all those packages except the ones that do not get installed with a default installation. Just stick with packages you know you need to manually install after a fresh install14:12
leftyfbdie7: I would just start with not installing any packages to test14:12
Southern_GentlemAQ google is your friend14:12
jimb_AQ, GParted should be on your liveCD/DVD/USB. Once you boot from that, you should have no trouble using GParted to shrink /dev/sda2 and use the free space to create /dev/sda414:12
die7leftyfb: will sthat solve my grub issue :))14:12
AQthx14:13
Kingsyahh I fixed it, bloody thing needed to be in pairing mode.14:13

Kingsyits 100% available becuase my android phone gets uit.14:13
Kingsywould be nice to have it on my PC too14:13
leftyfbdie7: systemc-cofig-kickstart --generate is a very brute force way of generating your config. Just like example configs out there, it should only be used as a template to create a config yourself14:14
TJ-die7: does this match your issue? https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=5516834#post551683414:16
TJ-Kingsy: was that all it was!? manually putting the headphones into pairing mode?14:16

ghostnik11hey i am trying to run a patch and wanted to know if i could just create it using text editor and then just place it in the folder where its suppose to go in filesystem and tell it to execute to make it work? is that how it works or is it not so?14:19
TJ-die7: as leftyfb says, remove/comment-out the manual package list - the first thing in these cases is to reduce the problem to barest minimum that is reproducable so others have a change to reproduce14:20
TJ-die7: Are you doing this install in a virtual machine or on bare hardware ?14:20
die7TJ-: bare14:20
sruliafter latest update ubuntu-gnome, after login i get a black screen with mouse pointer ctrl+alt+t opens terminal, i can type in the terminal but nothing gui works (if i hit the X on the terminal nothing happens etc)14:21
leftyfbdie7: also, the example I gave originally specifies "eth0" as the network interface. You said it failed on networking because you're using ubuntu 16.04 which uses different naming of it's devices. This is why that's an example and shouldn't just be tossed in and assumed to work out of the box14:21
TJ-die7: does the PC have multiple disks/USb flash storage  attached?14:25
TJ-die7: I ask since I see a Debian bug where, when there's multiple /unpartitioned/ storage devices in the system, debian-installer blindly selected /dev/sda which - in the bug case - wasn't the device being installed to14:26
die7leftyfb:let see it runs so far...why installer mounts partitions14:26
die7TJ-: yepp this isse I have seen also14:27
leftyfbdie7: huh?14:27
die7TJ-: even if they are partitoned it runs to issue14:27
leftyfbTJ-: the issue was due to manually installing conflicting grub packages14:28
die7TJ-: installed via USB-key it mounts usb as sda :) and no grub installation at all14:28
die7TJ-: it say you chosed not to install grub14:28
die7TJ-: then it does but to sda14:28
die7TJ-: and usb-key is usles14:29
die7TJ-: I made in secon console try which work to install manualy grub to /dev/sdb14:29
jimb_ghostnik11, this might not be the best channel for the question, but I think this will help you (if this is the kind of patch you are talking about, very common) https://www.thegeekstuff.com/2014/12/patch-command-examples/14:29
die7TJ-: but my issue is to get this with kickstart14:30
die7leftyfb: hmmm14:32
die7leftyfb: removing packages worked14:35
TJ-leftyfb: where's the conflicting grub packages?14:36
TJ-die7: if you wanted to install say, just the desktop it would be sufficient to specfify "ubuntu-desktop" in the packages list - which is a meta-package the depends on everythhing required14:39
=== nat is now known as Guest30865
die7TJ-: it´s server..need just openssh-server at begining rest will be done by ansible14:43
TJ-die7: I /think/ your issue was caused because the debian-installer automatically does the boot-loader install but then you were telling it to also install the grub packages which probably caused 'dpkg' package configuration to get confused between the 'default' options and the debian-installer options14:43
TJ-die7: yes, I was just giving you an example of using a meta-package to pull in a set of other packages (including the correct libraries), rather than specifying14:44
die7TJ-: ahh ok14:44
die7TJ-: then is --generate realy missleading14:44
die7TJ-: does post part works like in centos kickstart14:45
die7TJ-: I need to add some ssh-keys14:45
TJ-die7: kickstart is a Red Hat tool originally and I think geared mostly to how the RH/CentOS/Fedora systems do installs. It does look like the "--generate" on Debian/Ubuntu isn't intelligent - it ought to be calling 'debfoster' to get just the list of top-level and meta packages14:46
die7TJ-: now im glad it works14:47
TJ-die7: for SSH keys see this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/364051/how-do-you-preseed-an-ssh-key#36940314:47

I’ve tried creating my own package with the changed files but this results in file conflicts and so they won’t be installed unless I force it.15:28

B14CK-SPID3Rhello guys, i've just reinstall ubuntu 16.04. i want to take a back up for when my ubuntu will be crash to avoid reinstalling. which folder do i need to exclude in tar backup?16:21
brainwashsruli: delete or move your .dbus directory16:21
mistralolB14CK-SPID3R: exclude /proc /dev /sys16:21

arthur_Hi16:24
B14CK-SPID3Rmistralol: Thank you sir. so for recovery, what do i do if ubuntu stuck before login page?16:24
TJ-sruli: if this has happened in multiple systems (VMs) after a package update you should report a bug, and include the list of upgraded packages from /var/log/apt/history.log so we can figure out what caused the regression16:25

ubottudsaravanan: Meltdown is a security issue with (primarily) Intel processors. It's mitigated by kernel patches named KPTI. Ubuntu released them in security updates for 14.04, 16.04, and 17.10. 17.04 will not receive this update. 18.04 will ship with kernel 4.15, which is patched already. 16.04 has updates for Linux 4.4 (release) and 4.13 (HWE), installs with 4.10 should upgrade to 4.13. See also !spectre, !nopti18:25

new2linuxoh I didn't realize that, should I remove it18:52
jstarcheror do I set gateway to the utun0 interface18:52
x04ei guess if you route it into the vpn with source address 192.168... it won't go back into the vpn because there may be a 192.168... in the target network18:53
lotuspsychjenew2linux: check what Bashing-om suggests18:53
nicomachusdlam: /proc/loadavg will show something like 0.91 0.48 0.62 3/357 16607. those first three numbers are average load over 1, 5, and 15 mins. If you need more, you can set a cron to log that to a text file and get a longer timeframe avg18:53
new2linuxlotuspsychje: was that a question or are you telling me, I am lost as to what drives to put in18:53

new2linuxBashing-om: is that what you are asking me? I am using the gdm3 GUI not the lightdm gui19:28
Bashing-omnew2linux: Then there will be an icon in the GDM3 interface .19:29

Bashing-omnew2linux: I have no access to GDM3 desktop . I can not advise further . Play with it and see what you find .19:31

srulinacc: true about perl, googled... finding many pages on replacing part of the name but NOT finding how to swap positions when the only common part of file name is "__"19:42
naccsruli: don't think in terms of swapping. it's about saving some state (back-expressions) and then using that state later19:42
srulinacc: not sure how to do it, i can wtore a 15 line bash script to do it, but would like to be able to do it in a 1 liner19:44

naccmircx1: if you would like to provide any of that info, someone can help you20:10
new2linuxBashing-om: when I booted up and removed "quiet splash" and replaced it with "nomodeset" then it booted up in the highest resolution. However, what sucked about that was that my entering my secure disk password had to be done in text mode (I have 2 secure disks) so it had to be done twice also. When splash mode is in full effect I enter it once from the boot gui. Thus, I'd like to figure out what command line change I need to use 20:10
new2linuxsplash and get it to boot in high res mode20:10

new2linuxwhat is displaylink and how do I use it or detect it? is it hardware or software?20:12
Bashing-omnew2linux: "nomodeset" defeats Kernel Mode Setting - proprietary driver will not load .20:13
new2linuxok20:13
new2linuxso if "nomodeset" is causing it to enter the highest resolution mode, what does that tell us about using the prop driver or fixing it to work?20:13
ioriausually it's the contrary, afaik20:15
Bashing-omnew2linux: Not a clue to work with . Remove nomodeset - reboot and advise on the GUI condition at that point . problems, we start looking at the log files .20:15
new2linuxI tried booting several times without nomodeset and when I did, it gave me the low-res mode again20:16
new2linuxright now I am booting in nomodeset but I can reboot without it and then we can do more examination I guess, that is the best way ahead now?20:16

louvetvicenteIt appears that the issue is that folders are created by the user that logs into TimeMachine, but subsequent users can't access the .plist file created by the first user, this is because the files/directories are created as owned by a group named after user A, instead of using a group that both user A and user B are included in21:35

dgandhiEsoteric USBserial question: I run LXDE with an lxterm, in which i'm running screen to open /dev/ttyUSB0 which connects to a cico switch via a keyspan adapter at 9600bps - I loose data when I paste a large config file into the terminal which suggests I'm filling a buffer that then drops the extra bytes - I suspect the usb-adapter - but is there another likely suspect in my pipeline?21:44
gordonjcpdgandhi: it's quite likely the adaptor21:44
gordonjcpdgandhi: you could see if screen has got some flow control options21:45
gordonjcpdgandhi: frankly though, that's an insane way to go about it21:45
arktvrvsGaerandil90, the file must not be in that location?21:45

SkaMan814Hi Everyone! I'm trying to use the transmission-daemon on Xubuntu 17.10, and followed the official ubuntu wiki to set it up.  Every time I try to download something through the web UI, I get a permission denied error.  Thought the folder is set to 775 with debian-transmission:debian-transmission ownership.  I'm really not sure what's going on.21:53
TJ-dgandhi: something like "screen /dev/ttyUSB0 9600,cs8,crtscts,ixon,istrip"21:53
SkaMan814It's connecting to peers, will download a few MB, and then I get the error.21:54
oerheksSkaMan814, debian-transmission ?? ask in #debian perhaps?21:55
oerhekstransmission should be configured properly on ubuntu..21:55
dgandhiTJ: Ok so my presumption of the dongle being bad is likely unfounded, since i should expect to loose data on the serial line without ixon,crtscts ?21:55

goptimushey guys what's up ?21:58
TJ-dgandhi: it could be, and it relies on the serial cable section having RTS/CTS and/or DTR/DSR connected, and the USB<>RS232 chipset to support it22:01
dgandhiI'm not sure of the RS232 compliance of the cisco RJ45 adapter, or the $15 firmware dependant(why?) dongle , so the minimal config it probably a good general strategy, given how many places this can fall over.22:05

Zer0x_Yeah, as in, the tar file isn't on the specified directory or location23:00

naccZer0x_: if you meant a file called wine_gecko-2.47-x86-unstripped.tar.bz2 in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/gecko/2.47/wine-gecko, then you need to re-read the manpage, as i said23:01

Zer0x_:)23:13
naccZer0x_: then you need to do this: tar -x -f /path/to/file -C /path/to/directory23:13
naccZer0x_: you made /path/to/file, 'file', which is interpreted by your shell as './file'23:14
naccZer0x_: if you meant to say, look in /path/to/directory for 'file', then you should have specified -C *first* (manpage says the order matters)23:14
