[00:01] jas4711: so the mini.iso is missing some install routine you need? [00:01] Bashing-om, giving up? [00:02] oh he left [00:02] crap [00:02] backnforth: Nope. awating to see what results booting the liveUSb . [00:03] Bashing-om, I told hoh [00:03] you told you, I don't know how to do what you asked for [00:03] I'm not getting those results [00:04] backnforth: And I responded that to see the liveUSB boot options . hit any key soon as the firmware screen clears .......... [00:05] what's the firmware screen? [00:06] backnforth: on the old legacy sytems would be eqivalent of the bios boot screen . [00:07] is that the grub boot screen? [00:07] !efi | backnforth [00:07] backnforth: UEFI 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/UEFI [00:10] Is the desktop in Ubuntu 17.10 gnome ? [00:11] Deihmos: Default in 17.10 is wayland optional to boot Xorg . [00:11] my wifi is working !! thanks for your attention :) [00:11] i just checked, when ubuntu server iso start, i say "install ubuntu server" [00:12] ramrebol_: You do good work :) [00:12] Deihmos, yes, Ubuntu 17.10 uses GNOME [00:12] Didn't they say it would be gnome? [00:12] What happened to unity [00:12] here, all the iso you link to me say "install ubuntu" , it's not what i'm looking for [00:12] Unity went away [00:13] Bashing-om, he was asking about the desktop environment, not the window manager [00:13] I see. It looked a little more modern graphically [00:13] Ubuntu's default GNOME theme looks very much like Unity's [00:14] Where is the theme? [00:14] I just installed 17.10.1 [00:15] Bashing-om, I see boot from first hard disk whenever I don't boot uefi [00:15] Ok I think I got it. [00:16] I wonder why they ditched unity. [00:16] nobody here can give me the link to the mini iso to install ubuntu SERVER net install i386 ? [00:16] it says boot failed [00:17] Dkeagle: sorry i don't remember what mini.iso install routine includes. what is it missing for your use case? [00:17] akik, all the mini iso i found install normal ubuntu [00:18] i need the one to install ubuntu server [00:18] Dkeagle: yea but is some raid or storage setup missing from it? [00:19] Dkeagle: for most purposes the desktop/server differences is just packaging [00:19] seriously ? there's no difference ? [00:19] Dkeagle: there are differences but the kernel is the same and all the packages [00:20] i'm gonna use the server with command line in ssh connection, nothing else [00:20] Dkeagle: so what is missing from the mini.iso? [00:20] i'm just gonna put a ftp server and maybe host my private website on it [00:20] backnforth: Yuk. hate to say but this is now beyond my abilities as I have but limited experience with EFI systems :( [00:21] the thing is that i watch some videos about ubuntu server [00:21] Should I use the mvidia drivers ? [00:21] and every install with ubuntu server iso start with "install ubuntu server" [00:21] Bashing-om, I might try Ubuntu 16.04 [00:21] here, all the mini iso i got start with "install ubuntu" [00:21] is it the same thing ? [00:22] damnit how do i add a program to the panel [00:22] theres no right click menu [00:22] i have made a simple script /home/dingir/start.sh [00:23] i want to add this as an icon to the panel on the left [00:23] backnforth: How new is your hardware ? - but I do endorse 16.04.1 for stability . [00:23] Dkeagle: i'm not sure what you need but for example this machine i'm using, i've installed it from the desktop iso but i'm using it "as a server" [00:24] akik, the problem is that i have the "ubuntu 17.10.1 server i386", 751mo iso [00:24] hey === SysGhost is now known as dbd97a48-8610-4a [00:24] i have python2.7 python3.5 === dbd97a48-8610-4a is now known as SysGhost [00:25] how i can use 3.5 [00:25] when i launch it, it says "install ubuntu server" [00:25] but a can't burn that one on a 700mo CD [00:26] i need the exact same thing, but in mini.iso version (~50 mo) [00:26] Dkeagle: try the mini iso that you were linked to, and if it doesn't satisfy your needs, ask again? [00:27] <[Ketchup]> hi, are metapackages safe to remove? [00:27] akik, tried it on a VM, it installed desktop ubuntu, not server [00:27] i need the iso who says "install ubuntu server" when it's booted on [00:27] Should I use the Nvidia driver? [00:27] Dkeagle: ok i can't help you with that [00:28] looks like nobody can... Thanks anyway [00:29] Dkeagle: but you know, if you stop the login manager, you'll get a "server" login [00:29] Dkeagle: then you can configure the network interface in /etc/network/interfaces [00:30] Dkeagle: and all the packages will be the same [00:30] for example i have sshd, smbd, ftpd, stunnel servers on this "desktop" install [00:31] akik, i"ll try to find a mini iso for ubuntu server, but if i don't find it i'll do that way [00:32] or i need to find a way to burn 751mo on a 700mo cd... [00:36] use a dvd [00:37] The officially supported way of making a custom image seems to be "do what we did to make our image" [00:37] Hope you're ready to dive deep into the tools === guadalinex is now known as Guest71951 [00:40] Well tbh, they are either just a) burning the wrong image, or b) handling the right one wrong. [00:42] Will someone please at least tell me if this is the wrong channel to ask about this? https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/382fba37f940ff0c58e09f1405f70da6 [00:42] ##java is a programming help only channel and there is no channel for FrostWire [00:45] You can search channels via /msg alis LIST [00:46] Unfortunately a quick search turns some seriously inactive channels [00:46] Good luck [00:46] skinux: it says it there. you probably need sun's jre [00:46] The relevant channel is ##bittorrent, but it seems rather unpopulated [00:47] ^probably [00:47] skinux: luckily sun's jre install is pretty easy, unpack and set JAVA_HOME [00:56] Thank you. I'm downloading it now. [00:57] Hey guys! I just installed ubuntu 16.04 (latest) on a fresh new laptop and unfortunately encountering errors. Hopefully someone can help me! Initially, I found that I can't shut it down normally, when I click to shutdown it freezes there and I end up having to press the power button on the laptop. Now when I try to boot it back up, when I enter my [00:57] password, nothing happens! it stays on the background image [00:57] If anyone has time, it would be much appreciated! [01:05] i'm trying to get a PyOpenGL to work on ubuntu 17.10 and I keep getting the error "Shader Syntax Error: vertex 0:1(10): error: GLSL 1.50 is not supported. Supported versions are: 1.10, 1.20, 1.30, 1.00 ES, 3.00 ES, 3.10 ES, and 3.20 ES" [01:07] Will stay in this chat for a few hours, hopefully someone can help me! ill tip a few $ in crypto [01:10] hey guys, please , I want to install ubuntu encrypted but not using ALL my disk, is there an easy way to do this ? [01:11] notfalco: Is this because there's already another OS on the disk? [01:11] metastable: this is because maybe I'll want a dual boot later, but no ATM, so I want to leave unformatted space [01:12] notfalco: What would the other OS be if you did dual-boot? [01:13] notfalco, I would recommend managing your partitions before starting the installation process. Get your disks partitioned and formatted as you want, and then you can make sure Ubuntu installs in the correct spot [01:13] Anything that the same grub on /boot could boot [01:14] Kon-: bot that wont make it encrypted, I already tried installing in a encrypted volume made with the installer and failed :( even leaving the /boot unencrypted [01:14] notfalco: It most certainly can. [01:14] Hi, how can I select ubuntu version to which I want upgrade? I mean I have Ubuntu 14 and want exacly 16.04.2 (no .3 or higher etc) [01:15] amz: Why? [01:15] bcecause i want this version, have software which only work on this version [01:15] i will deploy digitalocean vps on ubuntu 14 and upgrade to 16.04.2 [01:15] amz: I find that... suspect. Who says it only works with 16.04.2? [01:16] it dont work on 16.04.3 because of other lib versions etc [01:16] amz: Have you tested this? [01:16] and this is most easy way [01:16] yes [01:16] is this possible to upgrade just to 16.04.2? [01:16] amz: It's not actually that easy. No, it's not possible. [01:16] bro I cant even login with 16.04 [01:16] Guest70: At the login screen, key combo ctl+alt+F2 to gain a console interface, Login here with username and password . Then we see what we can do . [01:16] or shut it down [01:17] thanks bashing ill try that [01:17] even when 16.04.2 is still supported version? [01:18] amz: The 16.04 release as a whole is supported. There is nothing in the repos that indicates "this is point release 2." [01:18] amz: Is this your code, or someone else's? [01:19] https://github.com/Phype/telnet-iot-honeypot [01:19] amz: Please bear in mind that even if this WERE possible (and it's not), you would still have to worry about keeping the system up to date, which would break it anyway. [01:20] i dont need update this :) [01:20] just need run it, dont care about details :P [01:21] amz: That kind of mentality is why I get paid so much money... [01:21] Bashing-om When I press ctl+alt+f2 at the login screen, with no password entered, the whole thing freezes (cannot enter password or see the console) [01:22] akik: Installing Sun java didn't resolve the issue [01:23] Guest70: That suggest a bad install . How did you do the install medium ? Need to verify . [01:25] Bashing-om I got the iso from the ubuntu official website, and put it on usb key with rufus [01:25] brand new usb key too [01:25] I could reinstall [01:26] I set a 30gb partition for the install [01:27] Guest70: check the .iso file: http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows . Then next is verify the USB . [01:28] Guest70: 30 Gogs will be a bit tight, but will do for a starter . [01:28] gigs* [01:29] amz: I don't know who told you that that doesn't work on .3, because I'm running it just fine on .3. [01:30] amz: perhaps here: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/16.04.2/ [01:30] Loshki: He wants to use DO, you can't use your own images. [01:30] Loshki: And there's also no reason for him to use an old release. [01:31] Can someone help me fix this docker file script? https://github.com/phillijw/ynab/blob/master/Dockerfile ... I'm getting error on the localedef line [01:34] Loshki: I'm EXTREMELY suspicious of any claim that a specific Ubuntu point release is required, because there's nothing that defines a point release other than "we're gonna package the last X months of security updates so people don't have to download them all." [01:39] Bashing-om Thanks for the help, I can confirm that the MD5 is the same as showed here http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/MD5SUMS [01:39] How would you suggest testing the usb key? [01:40] Also, I found that using the command "certutil -hashfile MD5" on windows worked better, the ones listed in the article linked didnt work === ubuntu is now known as Guest27002 [01:44] Bashing-om, Just tried with Ubuntu 16.04 since I read Linux Mint uses Ubuntu 16.04 but still the same error [01:44] Guest70: Boot from the key, as soon as the firmware screen clears press the escape key ( real small window of opportunity here) -> language screen; escape key to accept the defaults -> boot options screen -> "check disk for defects" . [01:45] backnforth_: A fresh clean install of ubuntu 16.04 ? [01:46] Bashing-om, Yep, except I did updates [01:46] Bashing-om, the amdgpu-pro drivers might work better on this [01:47] backnforth_: Updates are good :) .. So remind me what means " but still the same error " . [01:47] Bashing-om, My game is giving graphics that are black and white but mostly black [01:48] backnforth_: perhaps, but maybe in small steps, as we do not KNOW that amdgpu-PRO has been backported to that series of cards . [01:49] backnforth_: Let's look and see what driver the installed installed for graphocs ' sudo lshw -C display ' . if it is "radeon" .. well I just do not know what else we can do . [01:50] Bashing-om, do you want me to get amdgpu-pro first? [01:51] backnforth_: No .. last time we did that .. we could not recover . [01:51] what does ubuntu add over debian? [01:52] Bashing-om Alright done too, I got "Check finished: no errors found" Would've been surprised since its a brand new laptop too [01:53] Bashing-om, https://hastebin.com/ajaturezan.pl [01:53] Bashing-om, It says Ri 270/270 but I have an R9 270 [01:53] stupid me lol [01:53] yeah that's right === Timothy is now known as Guest50696 [01:55] hello [01:55] Guest70: I am at a loss then as to why you can not progress past the login screen . [01:56] how have u been guys [01:56] Bashing-om Ok thanks for the help still, Ill see if I can found a solution [01:57] if anyone else see's this and helps me resolve ill give a tip [01:58] backnforth_: what kernel - uname -r '? As I am aware that amdgpu driver must be kernel 4.7 and above . As the installer did install radeon, - rather than amdgpu - I am sceptical that any other will work . [02:00] Bashing-om, 4.13.0-32-generic [02:01] Bashing-om, I'm going to install linuxmint and try that again. I can give you system details of that if you want [02:02] !mint | backnforth_ mint isn't supported or discussed in this channel because it is not ubuntu. [02:02] backnforth_ mint isn't supported or discussed in this channel because it is not ubuntu.: The Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle) [02:02] well I could pm it then [02:03] backnforth_: But .. mint we do not support .. will get no help here in that event . Mint does things we do not know about . [02:04] Bashing-om, that's fine.. I'm just looking for a gaming system that works at the moment. I won't come here then.

[03:10] yeah but like... why did 15.04 assume it existed and that worked but now 16.04 it doesn't exist? [03:10] I guess waht I'm asking is .. is there an equivalent command that works in 16.04? [03:10] phillijw: I'm not sure, because the sudo package in 16.04 assumes the existence of that directory. [03:11] Ah.. maybe sudo isn't even installed? Hrmph [03:11] That would explain it.

[08:22] the failed install left something broken (my paste link) and i now get The following packages have unmet dependencies: [08:22] linux-image-extra-4.10.0-42-generic : Depends: linux-image-4.10.0-42-generic but it is not going to be installed [08:22] try 'sudo apt install -f' [08:24] After you install a kernel, is there anything you have to do other than update-grub? [08:24] it did something [08:24] now update and upgrade is happy [08:25] RyoshiKayo: Normally, you don't even have to do that, apt-get will do it for you in the post-install steps. [08:25] hmm [08:25] I'm trying to install 4.14.0-041400 [08:26] I'm getting an HDMI bug that seems to be the same with this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1734084 [08:26] RyoshiKayo: you don't need to update-grub manually, the packaging does it for you [08:26] Launchpad bug 1734084 in linux (Ubuntu) "Kernel Update Causes HDMI Port to Stop Working" [High,Confirmed] [08:27] supposed to be in mainline 4.14 [08:28] supposed to be fixed in * [08:28] man I can type === jackNemrod_ is now known as jackNemrod === sunray is now known as killjosefnoverap === killjosefnoverap is now known as killjosfrapis [08:39] Hi gents, whenever i run some audio i only hear white noise. I don't know if the new kernel updates have something to do with it. [08:39] hi [08:45] anyone can give me a turtorial of VIM? [08:46] no ifconfig in ubuntu anymore? i don't have it in 17.10 [08:50] @snipermax: just typ vimtutor in a cli [08:52] /win 7 [08:53] Hi everyone, I am using ubuntu 16.04.3 and glusterfs 3.13. I am seeing a huge amount of futex calls and errors on the system and it takes all the cpu time. I am stuck and I can't release why this is happening [08:54] looks like 16.04 comes with 3.7.6 [09:05] okay so like I installed the full ubuntu 16.04 on an intel atom 1.6 GHz with 2G RAM and it works pretty nicely but it is a little slow... still not bad. [09:05] what are the two types of ubuntu that are good on slower machines with low ram? [09:05] and how do they differ from 16.04? [09:05] lubuntu. some people add xubuntu to that list but xubuntu is not particularly designed to be low-resource-using [09:06] lubuntu 16.04 and ubuntu 16.04 are the same base with different desktop environments [09:06] (lubuntu is LXDE, ubuntu is unity (based on GNOME)) === Omistaja__ is now known as FMan [09:24] Hi guys [09:24] I have xubuntu 16.10 in one of my machines [09:24] I think plug is officially pulled on it [09:24] I can't update my apt cache [09:24] I am trying to upgrade it to any newer version [09:24] But it keeps giving me errors [09:25] just explain the problem [09:25] Any suggestions ? [09:25] show error with http://paste.ubuntu.com [09:25] share any errors in pastebin.ubuntu.com [09:25] ikonia :D [09:26] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/W7uI2lqt/ [09:27] so - we told you to use pastebin.ubuntu.com and you use something diferent [09:27] sudo do-release-upgrade [09:27] vijaikumar: ok, so the error is clear [09:27] you can't go directly between those two versions [09:27] 16.10 had it's 'plug pulled' 6 months ago [09:28] Is there anyway for me to atleast jump to 17.04 ? [09:28] 17.04 is dead now too [09:28] So the only solution is to reinstall then ? [09:28] hi [09:28] that's the best one [09:29] why not just wait for the next LTS release [09:29] i want to create a shortcut to /home/dingir/start.sh and that it runs it in a terminal [09:29] how do i do that.. i used to right click create new and click "run in terminal" [09:29] and you should be able to move between them [09:29] ikonia: i can't install anything [09:29] dont know how anymore.. using 17.10 [09:29] ikonia: 16.10 isn't lts [09:29] Ben64: I've just twigged it was 16.10 not 04 he's on [09:29] :) [09:29] used the name not the number [09:30] i've never done an eol upgrade, let alone eol to another eol release, idk how those work out [09:30] its not something you want is it really [09:32] any clue === Syllabear is now known as Guest44495 [09:38] Err:3 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty-security Release -- 404 Not Found [09:38] what happened ? [09:39] is 17.04 already too old ? [09:39] yep [09:39] seriously ? [09:39] indeed [09:39] * strk ignores Ben64 [09:39] neato [09:39] answered questions accurately and get ignored for it [09:40] ok, didn't really ignore you, but was tempted - are you _really_ saying that 17.04 is too old ? [09:40] guess it was my fault in using non-LTS version [09:40] !zesty [09:40] Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus) was the 26th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on January 13th, 2018. See !eol and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2018-January/000228.html [09:40] non-lts releases have 9 months of support [09:42] * strk tries do-release-upgrade and hopes for the best [09:42] thanks Ben64, and sorry for not trusting you (I'm not a frequent visitor of this channel) [09:42] np [09:44] 2014 packages are going to be upgraded. [09:44] let's go, 45 minutes of download estimated [09:45] looks like it's going to "artful" (is that 17.10?) [09:45] !artful [09:45] Ubuntu 17.10 (Artful Aardvark) is the current release of Ubuntu.

Anything i can do about this ? === gr33n7007h is now known as al2o3-cr [09:48] ph88: join the wine users community and ask there (it is what I'd do) [09:48] are they on freenode ? [09:48] #winehq [09:49] im adding a .desktop file to /home/dingir/Desktop but icon wont show up and when i click it wont execute [09:49] i did chmod +x on it [09:49] whats so complicated creating a shortcut [09:51] sounds like it doesn't detect it as a desktop file, then [09:51] maybe logout login ? [09:52] argh [09:52] also where a good place to start i want to share my drives on network [09:52] between linux box [09:53] i looked for "network file system" but dont find [09:53] hello [09:55] please advice me about Download management or download helper [09:56] !nfs | dingir_ [09:56] dingir_: nfs is the network file system.
