[03:46] hi [03:54] Nachos11: "all interfaces" seems like an odd goal for a dhcp server - [04:11] where do I get the command nc6? [04:15] CarlFK1: dhcp client, not server. [04:16] so if I have 4 networks connected to 4 ports, I'd like to get DHCP IPs on all of them. [04:16] ubuntu xenial doesn't have netcat6 [04:18] Nachos11: I think you need to specify the config for each interface. or.. with a little hot plug udev rules you could make any new interface that shows up get dhcp'ed. [04:22] CarlFK1: The problem is that I don't know what the interface names are. [04:23] I'm trying to install on one box and then move the drive to another (headless) box to actually do the running. [04:24] I have a weird issue with my ubuntu machine. During poweroff/restart, it hangs with a blinking cursor. I waited hours and it is still stuck there. To diagnose it, I edited boot options to "text" instead of "quiet splash". Now it won't hang up at all. It quickly powers off or restarts. This has been very repeatable. Running ubuntu 17.10.1. [04:25] The text still pops up, but it is too quick to read. Where can I read those logs? [04:25] Nachos11: ' ip link ls ; to show all the NICs . [04:25] Bashing-om: I don't have console access to the machine. [04:25] because I can't ssh, because the network isn't setup.

Any one have a clue on how to fix that ? [05:17] Anyone online? [05:19] cinematicme, shoot [05:28] @chicognu one sec [05:32] Hi!! please help somebody!!! [05:32] I'm running older version of Ubuntu (14.04) for legacy purposes [05:32] digi_quake: start with a question first? [05:33] last week i configured my network interfaces to static IP... Now i changed my configuration to dhcp. [05:33] i did "ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0" [05:33] But i'm not getting any dhcpoffers [05:34] in newer versions, if i start smbd service i can immediatly get it [05:34] but in this old version, there's no smbd service [05:35] samba and dhcp have nothing to do with each other [05:35] samba is windows filesharing [05:35] so how do i get a dynamic IP?? [05:36] It says, "No DHCPOFFERS received. No Working leases in persistent databse - sleeping" [05:36] digi_quake: dunno, check your logs, see if your dhcp client is complaining about something [05:36] digi_quake: reboot your router perhaps [05:36] can you tell me where those logs are located... please? [05:37] i'm pretty novice in Linux [05:38] digi_quake: /var/log usually [05:38] okay, i'll check [05:42] hi!! any particular name for dhcp logs??? i can see dpkg.log, mail.log, auth.log, alternatives.log, ufw.log [05:49] digi_quake: Anything positive from ' grep -i dhcp /var/log/syslog ' ? [05:52] @Bashing-om: No, just multiple lines stating "DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 12..." [05:54] digi_quake: UnGood - what shows ' arp -a ' ?

[09:58] i mean like they throw vdi at me as in virtual desktop infra. i take it to mean they're on about kvm (in my understanding, just spinning up some vm's) [09:58] timdotrb: you need to upgrade, you haven't received any security patches in quite a while [09:58] brym, are you supposed to make desktops for thin clients?

[11:08] outoftime: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [11:08] *how [11:09] outoftime: yes, type "(dpkg -l | grep headers; sudo ubuntu-drivers devices) | nc termbin.com 9999" and paste the link here [11:11] rioh [11:11] ri0h [11:11] http://termbin.com/ri0h [11:12] I have an eror broken pipe [11:12] outoftime: does 'sudo ubuntu-drivers devices' give anything? [11:14] http://termbin.com/dfr4 next [11:15] outoftime: the recommended driver is nvidia-340 === SimonNL is now known as SimonNL_Afk [11:16] Yeah, I see, but I have installed 384 already, what to do now? [11:16] outoftime: sudo apt-get purge 'nvidia*' && sudo apt-get install nvidia-340 [11:18] sigle quotes? really? [11:18] yeah [11:18] hm, started without them... [11:18] np [11:19] outoftime: without a set of quotes the * could be expanded by the shell if anything named nvidia* happens to exist in the current directory [11:19] it's to avoid the shell expanding it if it finds anything in the current working dir [11:21] I have a blank black screen now [11:22] outoftime: try "ctrl+alt+del" [11:23] or possibly ctrl+alt+F2 [11:23] No, F2 didn;t work, I have tried, restarted [11:24] ok [11:24] I'm on login screen now [11:24] k, give it a shot [11:25] everything disapeared expect default scren wallpaper [11:25] *except [11:25] outoftime: try the guest account [11:26] Can't nothing is drawing except wallpaper [11:26] outoftime: does ctrl+alt+t work? [11:27] no [11:27] outoftime: try ctrl+alt+f1, login then type sudo service lightdm restart [11:28] do, login screen appeares as normal [11:28] *done [11:28] outoftime: try the guest account [11:29] EriC^^: you know, the more I see the problems nvidia drivers causing due to their proprietary hacks, I do wonder if we shouldn't install it using an overlay file-system so it can be enabled/disabled with a single mount command [11:29] done, everything is OK [11:29] TJ-: heh :D [11:29] outoftime: ok, logout, go back to ctrl+alt+f1 [11:30] TJ-, my ASUS screen is not recognized and It displays text ans CTR which kills my eyes [11:30] EriC^^: because then if failsafeX kicks in all it has to do is unmount the overlay and unload the kernel module and the system is clean [11:31] outoftime: try first 'dconf reset -f /org/compiz' [11:32] outoftime: if it doesn't work, renaming config files in the home dir could fix it, name ~/.compiz ~/.config/compiz-1 ~/.gconf ~/.config in that order one by one [11:32] it's some user config issue now [11:34] TJ-: that would be nice [11:34] Should I rename folders too? [11:35] outoftime: yeah the whole dir, e.g mv ~/.compiz ~/.compiz-backup [11:35] no luck with dconf? [11:37] done [11:37] try restarting lightdm and logging in your account [11:38] same issue [11:39] outoftime: did you rename ~/.gconf and ~/.config ? [11:39] + === ledeni_ is now known as ledeni [11:39] outoftime: EriC^^ I think it's the user's DM config been saved which includes GPU-specific names [11:40] TJ-: interesting, what should he rename/edit? [11:40] I have done nothing [11:40] fresh ubuntu 16.04 === ramon is now known as Guest28930 [11:40] I have just installed nvidia-340 [11:41] *384 [11:41] outoftime: "just" is a LOT when it involves nvidia! [11:41] I can burn everything out and start again [11:41] Is there any options for desktop sharing for wayland on 17.10? === Dorami-Doraemon is now known as Guest94025 [11:41] EriC^^: I'm trying to remember but it's a long time since I dealt with it; there was some local user config file that included GPU and/or output names in it [11:42] outoftime: i'd have this happen to me once, and renaming almost every config in the home dir didn't help, so i created a fresh user and moved my data there, you're going to have to set up the settings again anyways since we renamed the configs [11:42] natten: teamviewer? [11:44] outoftime: if you want to make a new user "sudo adduser --system " then "sudo adduser sudo" to give him privileges [11:44] outoftime: EriC^^ is there a $HOME/.nv/ directory? [11:44] Eric^^: you know, default driver is enough for me, but It recognize my Asus vw227 as CRT display and... my eyes will blow up soon [11:44] outoftime: haha, yeah that sucks for sure [11:44] yeah [11:44]
