[00:07] seems like not that many users for that albert thingy http://www.webupd8.org/2017/01/albert-quick-launcher-090-released-with.html [00:11] Hello. === lan is now known as Kumool [00:12] https://pastebin.com/QDpheJBL I've got an issue here with Audacity. Most of the time when I record, the program freezes and I have to force quit. [00:12] I've been getting this with Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04. [00:18] yeah [00:19] anyway Ulauncher stopped finding results after my hard drive space ran out....and deleted alot of things...but it didnt fix it...so I installed ALbert...and it does the same thing...............but Synapse and Kupfer work fine [00:28] I'm at my wits end with trying to install a Brother MFC-L2750DW can anyone help? [00:29] I've tried everything from letting the system auto detect it to scripts in the bowls of searches and nothing has worked [00:36] Anyone alife who can help with a mongo problem, not database related :D [00:44] anyone? [00:44] im dying over here [00:44] Hi. Is the directory modification datetime always the modification datetime of recently modified file inside that directory? Even somewhere deeeply? [00:44] not literally before someone calls an ambulance [00:45] boshhead: just keep the faith, it's gonna be just fine! [00:45] hello [00:45] i could use some help [00:45] bosphus2: i'm pretty sure i have the exact same printer [00:45] bosphus2: and it 'just works' [00:45] well ive spent 2 days trying to install this printer with every resource I can find...nothing works [00:45] bosphus2: it's on the network, though, not direct attached [00:45] and I have to use it [00:46] i'm having a hdd issue can anyone help? [00:46] mine is visible...ubuntu and solus see it and auto install it...but cant print....solus devs said its a driver issue...but ive followed the directions on brothers site to instlal driver and it doesnt work [00:46] even called brother and they "dont support linux: [00:46] bosphus2: sorry, i have the DCPL2540DW [00:47] bosphus2: no drivers are necessary [00:47] well this one is capable of driverless printing as well...according to sources [00:47] but it wont [00:47] bosphus2: then there's something else wrong, what version of ubuntu (i'm on 18.04) [00:47] and even using their installer script etc wont work.....16.04 [00:48] ive seen several people saying the installer doesnt work for them either...typical stack exchange stuff with lots of answers and none that work [00:48] bosphus2: what 'installer' script? [00:48] from Brother's site...standby [00:48] bosphus2: as i said, afaik, totally unnecessary [00:49] well i first tried to just let ubuntu install it and it seems online but wont print [00:49] jobs hang in processing forever [00:50] konrados: I think the answer is, yes: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/hWN6gg8HS5/ [00:50] Process: 1555 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/mongodb start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) [00:50] Can anyone assist, online links doesn't help so far [00:50] i recently moved my old computer into a server chassis but i'm having a hard time seeing the hdds installed in the chassis [00:50] mzaza: run that manually (sudo /etc/init.d/mongodb start) and pastebin the output [00:50] konrados: There may be a mount option which can change that, but I am not aware of any off hand. [00:50] Hey there can I ask a question regarding making a fail2ban regex filter? If no, where can I go? #fail2ban is dead [00:50] they are connected via sas to sata on the motherboard (no raid controller) [00:51] any ideas? [00:51] this link is a driver script some people say works...hasnt for me http://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadend.aspx?c=us&lang=en&prod=mfcl2750dw_us_eu_as&os=128&dlid=dlf006893_000&flang=4&type3=625 [00:51] cupswrapper is terrible [00:51] and ive tried several variations of it people say works [00:51] nacc_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/p4CpyG8VDM/ [00:51] got any ideas? [00:51] bosphus2: dunno if it's necessary, but that whole thing is annoying [00:51] bosphus2: have you tried using 18.04? [00:52] iirc, there's been a lot of ipp: related changes in ubuntu since 16.04 [00:52] not in a position to upgrade right now...have 0.5mpbs internet as well so even getting an iso is an overnight affair [00:52] mzaza: `sudo bash -x /etc/init.d/mongodb start` [00:52] mzaza: that output in a pastebin [00:52] bosphus2: dunno, i can only report on what i know [00:52] and its not working via IPP on solus which is rolling and updated [00:53] so yours just plugged in and was detected and worked? no configurtion? [00:53] bosphus2: then i'd replace it with the one i'm telling you does work :) [00:53] not up to me...this is a family house in rural nowhere and im visiting for a while [00:53] if someone can help plz pm [00:53] it works on their macs so they dont care [00:53] bosphus2: send your docs to their macs and print from there? [00:53] Majost: thanks! Although I'm wondering if it's always the case, and I don't mean mounted devices. Like, when I look at the modification datetime of directory x, and it says 2017-01-01 - can I be sure that *no* file was created/modified after that time? Of course assuming I didn't modify the X directory mod date manually. [00:54] they are out of town...believe me Im not trying to be difficult...workarounds common sense would imply just wont work [00:54] bosphus2: what if you direct connect to the printer? [00:55] nacc_: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/fqK9Gdz9y6/ [00:55] cant...without moving the entire desktop far away [00:55] its not a solution [00:55] mzaza: systemctl status mongodb.server and journaltcl -xe output [00:56] believe me if it was as simple as a common sense workaround id have done it [00:56] mzaza: *mongodb.service* [00:56] bosphus2: sorry, i'm not sure otherwise [00:56] bosphus2: i've given you all the pragmatic solutions i can [00:56] konrados: that example I linked is not devices -- it creates a new directory, sleeps, then creates a file inside the directory, and stats the directory and file to show the modify time, which is the default value `ls` displays. [00:57] nacc_: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/XGTdwGyMjr/ [00:58] nacc im not bitching at you..ive jsut considered all that and am stuck [00:58] Majost: yes yes, I did understand that (it took me a while:)) - but... I mean can I be *sure*? That without me playing with dir modification datetime, the directory modification datetime is same as the recently modified file inside it? Always? [00:58] Majost: I assume "yes"? [00:58] By looking at your example. [00:58] konrados: The short answer is, yes -- its a safe assumption that no file was _created_ -- I think modified may be different. [00:58] bosphus2: never said you were [00:58] seems my issues are always things the stack exchange answers are unresponded to like the xkcd comic...."who are you user1234" etc [00:58] bosphus2: and please watch the language [00:59] Majost: my tests with modifyin file shows same results. Thanks again! [01:00] konrados: you can run that same command on your box, and then add `touch /tmp/foo/bar ; stat /tmp/foo /tmp/foo/bar` to modify the file in the directory and see what the behavior is though [01:00] mzaza: waht version of ubuntu is this? === Leion1 is now known as Leion [01:00] mzaza: your output is weird [01:00] mzaza: "Failed to start LSB: An object/document-oriented database." [01:00] konrados: no problem [01:01] nacc_: 16.04 [01:01] mzaza: apt-cache policy mongodb-server [01:03] nacc_: Let me tell you what happened their, i had a mongodb server up and runing fine for months now. Then it the disk ran out of space and afte I resized it, i tried to restart the process and it didn't work. I made a mistake and install mongodb, while I had mongodb-org. So I deleted mongodb and reinstall mongodb-org. I'm running on EC2 instance [01:03] mzaza: yeah, i think you possibly didn't purge something correclty [01:03] mzaza: but not sure [01:03] nacc_: nacc_ https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/m2VV57QrnC/ [01:03] mzaza: the mongodb-org package is not supported here, though [01:04] mzaza: so you're using mongodb-org now? [01:04] nacc_: I hope that I didn't purge anything because I still need the database, and I'm afraid I might be missing the latest backup. Yes I am. [01:04] mzaza: purge would remove the package not its data (aiui) [01:04] mzaza: you would need to seek support from mongodb then [01:04] nacc_: So, I should purge mongodb or mongodb-org? [01:04] mzaza: i don't know, the latter is not a supported ubuntu package [01:04] nacc_: I tried to, before I got her. But they were all dead by the time I was there. [01:05] If I just could made it alittle bit earlier :D [01:05] mzaza: yeah, there's not much we can do [01:05] nacc_: Well, thanks for your help so far. If you change your mind, I will be there. *PS this problem is on production environment :D [01:06] bosphus2 I wasn't paying attention, but sholdnt you be able to install the driver via PRINTERS in the Administration Menu? it may not have the exact model, but usually the closest simlar printer to it should work [01:06] mzaza: well, on a production environment, i hope you ahve backups and can just roll back :) [01:06] mzaza: and/or you should not have 'install'ed mongdob in prodcution without having done it first in dev [01:06] so look up similar Brother Printers and remember the models and then try to install the Printer you have Via the ADMINISTRATION/PRINTERS menu...and if yours is not on the list, choose a similar one....has always worked for me especially with Brother Printers [01:07] Hey so - there's a variable in this script that's ".*" [01:07] nacc_: I have done it in dev first, everything was fine I had the production server up for months now with no problem what so ever, until the disk ran out of space and I resized. [01:07] does that one period account for multiple periods? [01:07] mzaza: you installed mongdob on your dev server? [01:07] Say an IP address? [01:08] Gosh I should really put everything on one line rather than multiple. [01:08] shazbotmcnasty: dependson the context, but generally '.' means *any* charager [01:08] *charctger [01:08] bah, character :) [01:08] nacc_: even if there are no periods at all? [01:08] shazbotmcnasty: yes. [01:08] and did you mean ".*" or just "." === dingir__ is now known as dingir_ [01:09] shazbotmcnasty: again, it's hard to say without context [01:09] shazbotmcnasty: in a shell script, what's the variable being used for? [01:09] shazbotmcnasty: right now, iirc, that means 'a period followed by anything' [01:10] nacc_: Yes I had it. And it was fine. You see I'm not trying to install it, I'm trying to recover [01:10] mzaza: you just said you isntalled 'mongodb' in error? [01:10] I'm attempting to make a fail2ban filter. In the walkthrough that I have, it doesn't match up with the actual log stuff, so I don't think that it will ever have a match to the current regex filter, from the walkthrough. [01:10] Like for the "time" section it has ".*" has the variable, but there is no period in the time field [01:11] shazbotmcnasty: that's not necesarily shell is it? [01:11] thus that will never be matched, eh? [01:11] shazbotmcnasty: if it's using standard regex, then it's a different syntax [01:12] shazbotmcnasty: on a quick google, they use python regex [01:12] shazbotmcnasty: there's also apparently a fail2bain-regex tool [01:12] nacc_: well i don't really know it's just a .conf file. [01:12] oh that sounds nice [01:13] shazbotmcnasty: right, not clear why you'd assume taht's shell-interpreted [01:13] shazbotmcnasty: keep in mind, i've never used fail2ban [01:13] :) [01:13] i just figured ".*" and "*" or "." meant the same here and there [01:14] shazbotmcnasty: that would depend on the style of regex in question [01:14] * shazbotmcnasty shrugs. ok. [01:15] Well last thing - where do i find that fail2ban-regex tool? [01:15] shazbotmcnasty: i dunno, i was just reading their upstream docs [01:15] ok thanks [01:15] shazbotmcnasty: in ubuntu it's in the fail2ban pacakge [01:15] (at least on 18.04) [01:16] nacc_: Yes, mongodb I was confused and installed it instead of install mongodb-org, to check if i have any missing part uninstalled by mistake [01:16] how can i see what hardware needs drivers installed? [01:16] mzaza: right, so did you do that exactly on your dev server first? [01:16] mzaza: that's what i meant earlier [01:17] oh hmm it's for like testing my already made filter, not one that i need to create [01:17] shazbotmcnasty: https://fail2ban.readthedocs.io/en/latest/filters.html [01:17] shazbotmcnasty: it says it's used for 'developing/testing a regex' [01:19] nacc_: no, because my dev server didn't have a problem with disk space, the production had [01:19] mzaza: right ... so that's not great devops :) [01:20] mzaza: not trying to pick at you, but now you've gone and done something bad to prod [01:20] nacc_: yes , you're right [01:20] So this is strange. somehow http_proxy and https_proxy got set in my bashrc randomly. Proxy turned off in systems settings. Any clues as to why? [01:20] It was causing problems with pip, I removed it, but am wondering why it happened and how to prevent it in the future [01:21] it happened rather suddenly too, I use a ton of python virtualenvs and never had a problem, then all the sudden pip was getting connection refused and I traced it back to http_proxy being in my env [01:22] bodangly: check if it happesn to a new user too (which would imply system shell rc files) [01:22] bodangly: if it doesn't, then check your ~/.bashrc, ~/.bash_profile, etc [01:23] well I removed it from ~/.bashrc, but good point I will check a new user [01:24] anyone else notice pinterest is messed up in firefox?

[02:37] or something like that? [02:39] sere, no. [02:39] sere: atoms are all x64, AFAIK. [02:39] cfhowlett: thats what i though so then my cpu must be 64then right [02:39] Nachos11: awesome.. im dumb lol ty [02:41] jaranGoyang, https://www.omegle.com/ [02:42] yeah it wouldn't work at all if it wasn't // or maybe not even install [02:46] @cfhowlett thanks alot [02:46] jaranGoyang, happy2help! [02:47] i am getting this error message when trying to install an app via apt-get "Unable to correct missing packages." [02:48] what app? what ubuntu version? [02:48] i did search for a solution online but it says to upgrade my system using the updater, but the updater also fails [02:48] 17.10 [02:48] oops 17.04 [02:48] ^correction [02:48] dead. end of life. no longer supported [02:49] !eol | joufflu [02:49] joufflu: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [02:49] thank you [02:49] happy2help! [02:49] I'm trying to repurpose an old MacMini G4 (1.4GHz CPU, Radeon 9200 32MB VRAM) computer with Ubuntu 14.04 PPC, but I'm having a lot of issues with choppy video reproduction on browsers like midori, firefox, etc. Video reproduction using VLC/Mplayer2 works fine though. What could be causing this? [02:50] err, I meant video playback. === mooncakehexchat is now known as Guest35859 [02:51] I think you may want to use xfce desktop env .. unity would be a bit much for that system [02:51] too much** [02:52] DiecastMessiah, I am currently using LXDE, the system seems relatively snappy [02:52] mail-man, try this: sudo apt install lxde xfce4 [02:52] then logout, choose an alternate session and login [02:53] oh ok i think lxde is lighter than xfce but not by much.. but lighter still [02:53] the problem arises when playing videos from a browser exclusively, frame rate drops to 5 FPS or something like that, if I use a video player it runs well [02:53] suggesting that it's not hardware then. perhaps too many active plugins in your browser? [02:54] well videos on the web are highly compressed [02:54] thats more ram and cpu power to decord than on the fly [02:54] might have to pass on the HD resolution videos, mail-man [02:55] decode sorry typos [02:55] actually, I've been doing all my tests with 480p videos.. the weird thing is that if I download 480p youtube videos, the playback works fine in VLC/mplayer, whereas it is very choppy in the browser [02:55] try a different browser. [02:55] chromium-browser perhaps? [02:56] well it has to decode the video and copy back into the frame buffer, it takes more work to view on a browser versus just into VLC or mplayer [02:56] I attempted all these tests with midori, firefox, epiphany-browser. Chromium is not supported in PPC arch I think. [02:56] yeah cfhowlett would be right.. the browser is most likely taking just a bit too much ram for the video to run [02:56] There is plugins available like omxplayer for chromium that can "workaround" this [02:57] Mostly they are geared towards raspi units [02:57] I am having problems connecting to OFTC [02:57] using pidgin [02:58] I saw a video on YT of a guy who has a similar MacMini (the only difference is that his GPU has 32+ MB of VRAM), and everything works well, could this difference account for the huge disparity in performance?: https://youtu.be/m2mx9lmhEuQ?t=795 [02:58] Is it the same GPU? Maybe he has hardware decoding or something else [02:59] that vram advantage could very well explain the better performance. [02:59] yeah, it is the same GPU, but it only has 32MB vram, the one in the video has 64MB. are there any diagnostics I can check in order to verify if I have full 2d/3d accel? [03:00] i am surpriced that this PPC/Radeon9200 plays video [03:00] In chrome you can do chrome://gpu/. I'm sure there is similar for other browsers [03:00] to be honest, I didn't check if OSX 10.5 video performance was that good, I might install it again and check if video playback is as bad as I currently get on ubuntu ppc [03:00] https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/linux-gpu-benchmark/ mail-man [03:01] mesa-utils > glxgears might be a good starting point === Guest35859 is now known as mooncakehexcha [03:02] just tried it, I get 30FPS if I maximize the glxgears window at a 1024x768@32 res [03:03] So about half of what it takes to not be choppy [03:03] glxinfo reports: OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R200 (RV280 5962) DRI2 [03:03] ram. must have more ram! see ebay/amazon for options === mooncakehexcha is now known as obythd [03:04] It is running on 512mb ram so that must be an issue as well [03:05] I'll try installing 10.5 and checking its performance to see if it's a kernel module/driver issue [03:05] thanks for your help guys! [03:05] yeah not sure if mac are like pc's but vram just mean it uses 32mb on the normal ram... but thats with pc's === obythd is now known as mookcakehexchat [03:07] but it may have its own decated ram.. hard to say without reading the full spec's [03:07] I think it may have its own dedicated ram, I only used the term VRAM because I thought that was appropriate to describe that spec [03:07] thats exactly what it means, virtual ram [03:10] mail-man, props for keeping the device running. as you've noticed, system demands invoked by media is increasingly exponentially. Perhaps time to repurpose your device? Personal cloud storage, music player or ubuntu mirror leap to mind ... [03:11] or to play oldold 90 games :) [03:12] we can always use another Doom server. Always! [03:12] cfhowlett, indeed, at least in the browsing department it seems that the requirements have increased greatly, if I can't get it to play videos on a browser I might just turn it into a kodi box for streaming, it seems to handle 480p fine as long as it isn't being displayed on a browser :) [03:13] I like the way you think! You make up your own rules. [03:13] Oh! Steam server? Counterstrike Source? [03:15] to bad prism broswer died .. that may have done the trick .. i miss it :) [03:19] midori and epiphany browser are quite lightweight, netsurf was the lightest of all but a lot of websites don't work well with its html/js interpreter === dingir___ is now known as dingir [03:22] yeah can see that java is powerful but it a hog to === Menzador90 is now known as Menzie === mitch is now known as Guest95495 [03:36] hi guys can anyone tell me the offtopic ubuntu channel was able to find for other flavors not ubuntu though [03:37] you mean xubuntu-offtopic ...? [03:37] mookcakehexchat: #ubuntu-offtopic === nacc_ is now known as nacc [03:38] just general questions not related to help am running ubuntu so figure xubuntu wouldnt be it [03:39] some flavors have an offtopic channel. most don't. doesn't seem to be a frequent or high-priority request. [03:39] :) [03:40] qwasdxlo1 [03:41] how do you guys find a channel on a given topic not using /list -verbose and small window som much to hover over to get details about channel topic [03:42] most irc clinets have a channel list window [03:42] anything eqiv to a search engine perhaps [03:42] !alis | mookcakehexchat [03:42] mookcakehexchat: Alis is an IRC service to help you find channels. For help on using it, see "/msg Alis help list" or ask in #freenode. Example usage: "/msg Alis list http" [03:42] thannks [03:42] mookcakehexchat: basically i just join it and see if it exists. if it's the name of a free software it usually just works on freenode :) [03:43] (but you may have to try # and ##) [03:43] I don't fully understand this syntax for ufw. sudo ufw allow from 15.15.15.0/24 to any port 5432 Why does it say to any port, if it's only one port or the ports listed? [03:44] i would think "any" means IP [03:44] but it's unfortunate wrding [03:44] imagine a comma there [03:44] from 15.15.15.0/24 to any network, to port 5432 [03:46] thanks for the alis suggestion [03:46] Hi, I just set up my printer (canon pixma mg8120) using the directions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems on a 16.04 ubuntu mate box. The printer functions perfectly, but it pops up 19 "error" messages as shown here - https://i.imgur.com/VaaJOK0.png How do I prevent status messages being displayed as error messages? [03:46] almost more confusing than using iptables directly.. despite the point of ufw.. i guess [03:51] segersjerry: those look like notices .. is there an option in gnome setting.. sorru it been may year that i looked at gnome2 Desktop [03:52] DiecastMessiah, checking, brb [03:53] i hope there is if not i have no other idea's... i'm still pretty newish [03:54] but i played with linux a few times over the years. [03:55] mutante: what does to any network mean? it's going to that machine isn't it?

[04:12] I believe you cannot edit a pdf itself.. i think you have to convert it to something and than edit .. and export it again toa pdf [04:13] RA3OR: yeah something in ubuntu likes to overwrite stuff like that.. a while ago it was overwriting my graphics drivers with broken ones on boot, never did manage to find what was beraking things though [04:13] well, its giving me gray hairs, wasted 6 hrs(and my sleep) trying to figure out whats happening [04:14] and manually recreating it, to keep vital part of site online [04:18] linocisco: is the PDF the only file you have ? or do you have the origial document file? [04:18] DiecastMessiah, I can make duplicate and test [04:19] oh ok.. so you'll want to find a pdf converter and do like i said before [04:24] linocisco: sorry was just looking around i guess there are online tools to add things like signures or images ectect ..

[09:49] Has there been issues with Ubuntu's website today? I've been getting http 503 errors all day on multiple different networks [09:49] kamichan: a firewall can be tuned to block certain ports, or allow incoming connections from certain ip's only or interfaces etc [09:54] well i was referring to digitalocean's initial setup guide that strongly recommends it even for newbies [09:54] and, i figure a firewall is just one layer of protection that isn't needed and also likely to cause problems for me if i try to do more [09:54] kamichan: yeah, you could set it up and allow only apache's port and you probably want to allow ssh and change the port too [09:55] ah-donny: ubuntu.com is working fine here [09:55] change default port :( [09:55] kamichan: it is useful and easy to set up [09:56] kamichan: you wont need to open any port for irssi i believe, unless you disable outgoing connections, not sure [09:56] ok but there isn't a security problem right?
