| alpha__ | i get http://termbin.com/zef5 | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| linux_user | almost 75GB! | 00:01 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: so it's as you said, sda3 is home which you want to preserve. sda2 and sda4 can be recycled. i'm not sure what sda1 and sda5 and sda6 are | 00:02 |
| alpha__ | how will i point the new reinstalled ubuntu to the home | 00:02 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: run: grep home /etc/fstab | 00:03 |
| alpha__ | sda 4 is the swap | 00:03 |
| alpha__ | in terminal on the new install | 00:04 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: the output produced by the above command needs to be added to /etc/fstab after reinstallation. | 00:04 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: you'd need to run this command now. | 00:04 |
| alpha__ | how do i do that? | 00:04 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: what exactly? | 00:05 |
| alpha__ | sorry i getting a bit confused | 00:05 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: to run a command, you type or copy and paste it and press enter | 00:05 |
| alpha__ | yes | 00:05 |
| tomreyn | run this now: grep home /etc/fstab | 00:05 |
| alpha__ | ok now when i reinstal ubunu on sda2 | 00:06 |
| alpha__ | it will want to create its own home as part of the instulation | 00:06 |
| tomreyn | maybe better: grep home /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999 | 00:06 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: it will not just want to cxreate its own /home directory (but not partition), it will actually do it. | 00:07 |
| alpha__ | ok so why do i need to run this command now? | 00:07 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: to have its output available after you reinstalled ubuntu. with it, it will be easier to mount the old home partition in place of the newly created /home directory | 00:08 |
| alpha__ | so do i run grep home /etc/fstab or grep home /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999 | 00:08 |
| tomreyn | the latter, so it remains available online, if you dont mind it | 00:09 |
| alpha__ | im getting really confused now sorry | 00:09 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: what can i do to help you out there? | 00:10 |
| alpha__ | when i reinstall unbunt to sda 2 | 00:10 |
| linux_user | TJ-, Thank you - seemed easy to setup and its launched...some poor mirrors are gonna get hammered tonight | 00:10 |
| alpha__ | it will ask me to reformat the sda2 | 00:10 |
| TJ- | linux_user: :D | 00:11 |
| alpha__ | and then install the new fresh version | 00:11 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: correct. | 00:11 |
| alpha__ | which will have its own home folder | 00:11 |
| tomreyn | right | 00:11 |
| DexCfw | hey guys im trying to install wine on ubuntu but get this error anyone help? "wine E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" | 00:12 |
| alpha__ | so do i then run the command that you mentioned | 00:12 |
| alpha__ | above from a terminal | 00:12 |
| DexCfw | hey guys im trying to install wine on ubuntu but get this error anyone help? "wine E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" | 00:13 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: the idea is that you run "grep home /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999" now. this will post one line of text to the termbin.com website. you can then make note of this http address so you will have it after reinstalling. | 00:13 |
| linux_user | seems a pity, in a few weeks it'll have to be done again for 18.04 | 00:13 |
| alpha__ | ok | 00:14 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: this one line of text needs to be placed in the file /etc/fstab (adding to the existing lines) after installation. then reboot, and you old /home will be where it should be | 00:14 |
| alpha__ | then what do i do after the instalation | 00:14 |
| tomreyn | i'll have to leave for ~ 45 minutes now, if you have more questions i will answer them when i return | 00:14 |
| DexCfw | hey guys im trying to install wine on ubuntu but get this error anyone help? "wine E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" | 00:15 |

| linux_user | TJ-, Quick question: once this mirror is entirely downloaded, how do I tell sources.list to use it? | 00:16 |
| Bashing-om | alpha__: tomreyn: "IRT alpha__ : Might remind him when he points the installer to /home DO NOT choose to format the partition ." | 00:17 |
| TJ- | linux_user: you point the clients at it instead of the ubuntu archive servers, or you combine with a proxy | 00:18 |
| linux_user | not sure I understand how I'd do that, the regular sources use an http address on the web, just replace the ".com" part with an IP? | 00:19 |
| alpha__ | can you explaine please about not choose to format the partition | 00:19 |
| TJ- | linux_user: try this: they install apache2 or nginx as the mirror's archive server and point the LAN clients to it https://blog.shvetsov.com/2009/08/setting-up-apt-mirror-behind-http-proxy.html | 00:20 |
| alpha__ | asre you saying not to reormat? | 00:20 |
| alpha__ | i will only install ubunt on the broken partion | 00:21 |
| linux_user | I'll read it | 00:22 |
| linux_user | thank you for your help | 00:22 |
| Bashing-om | alpha__: When you pint the installer to sda3 as /home, there is checl box for "firnat" . If you intend to keep your old home in the new re-install, NO NOT check the format box . | 00:23 |
| Bashing-om | alpha__: pint/point* | 00:23 |
| epic_null | Hello. I'm looking for a header file that I need to build a program, but it doesn't seem to be in the apt-file list, and no one online seems to be complainaing about not having it. It's 'json/libjson.h'. | 00:25 |

| vvict | Hello, I'm having issues with my debian 9 installation. It is stuck in recovery mode. It says that mdadm no arrays found and also that the kernel modules cannot be loaded. | 00:32 |
| vvict | I originally had debian jessie, which I hadn't used for about two years, so I booted into an ubuntu live cd and used chroot to update all of the packages and upgrade to debian 9 according to some guides on the internet. I did this in response to the above issue in the hope that it would fix it, it did not. | 00:32 |
| epic_null | It's called GamePlay. It's supposed to manage graphics, audio, and I believe lua scripts for gaming. | 00:32 |
| epic_null | when you're writing the game anyway. | 00:32 |
| SlidingHorn | vvict, this is for ubuntu only - stick around the #debian channel and someone will hopefully be able to come by and help | 00:33 |
| vvict | oh okay | 00:33 |
| vvict | thanks | 00:33 |
| Bashing-om | alpha__: rsync is your friend . I back up /home : ' rsync -aiv --exclude=".*" /home/<username>/ <destination_path> ' . | 00:33 |
| TJ- | epic_null: so this then? https://github.com/gameplay3d/GamePlay-deps/blob/master/libjson-7.6.1/libjson.h | 00:34 |
| linux_user | TJ-, seems like a pretty straight forward thing to setup the http server to allow installation | 00:34 |
| linux_user | very nice | 00:34 |
| epic_null | Hmm... So it's in a different branch of the code? | 00:35 |
| epic_null | Well at least now I know how to get to it and why I couldn't find it... | 00:36 |
| epic_null | Thanks TJ | 00:36 |
| TJ- | epic_null: DuckDuckGo was my friend :) | 00:36 |

| Budgii | Any possibility of using Logitech software to modify mouse function on ubuntu? | 00:43 |
| SlidingHorn | Budgii, I've never tried this myself, but if you dual boot, apparently for most mice, the config from the Windows configuration tool the manufacturer provides is actually saved *in* the mouse itself. You can give that a try - or use something like xbindkeys | 00:49 |
| SlidingHorn | Budgii, most gaming/higher-end mice* | 00:50 |
| Budgii | SlidingHorn, you're exactly right. I was just looking to change the button functions with out having to reboot xD | 00:51 |

| tomreyn | Bashing-om / alpha__: the idea was not to touch the old /home (sda3) in the installer, installing everything to the old / (sda2), then later re-integrating the old /home | 01:02 |
| tomreyn | so as long as alpha__ does not instruct the installer to touch sda3 he'll be fine. | 01:03 |
| tomreyn | (and does also not clear the entire drive during installation) | 01:03 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: :) .. ^ Teach me to pay closer attention to detail ;) | 01:09 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: i'm glad you're watching over me occasionally, i make mistakes. | 01:11 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: You do keep a lot on the burners :P | 01:12 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: sorry, i'm not familiar with this idiom, keeping (sth.) on the burners | 01:14 |
| tomreyn | it sounds pretty british, though | 01:15 |
| Bashing-om | tomreyn: Americanisum .. in that you have a lot always going on . | 01:15 |
| tomreyn | Bashing-om: :) sometimes too much, not today. | 01:16 |
| alpha__ | tomreyn: i created another partition on sda5 and then edited the etc/fstab file using the one lineof txt stored on http://termbin.com/hwd6 | 01:16 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: sda5 IS a partition, you cannot create a partition on it, so i'm not sure i understand what you did. | 01:17 |
| alpha__ | tomreyn: and then rebooted and had access to my old home folder | 01:17 |
| tomreyn | whatever works for you :) | 01:18 |
| alpha__ | tomreyn: I was playing safe now i will reinstall on sda2 | 01:18 |
| alpha__ | and recyle the sda5 partition | 01:19 |
| alpha__ | now one question | 01:19 |
| alpha__ | with the backups we done for etc and thepackages | 01:21 |
| alpha__ | how will this help on reinstalling those packages? | 01:21 |
| alpha__ | so apart from the manually install packages acess to my old home folder is working like it did brfore ubuntu broke | 01:23 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: you could manually pick the software to install from the list of packages you have supposedly installed yourself, that's one of the two text files. | 01:23 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: alternatively, you could try to automate it based on the dpkg status database (but i would need to review how to automate this, too, and wont do ittonight) | 01:24 |
| alpha__ | so just go through the txt file and manually install the packages ok | 01:24 |
| alpha__ | would it be possible to do that sometime? | 01:24 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: about the configurations in the /etc archive, you can optionally review what you backed up there and cherry pick configurations you want to restore to the same place on the new system. this is mostly for reference, too. | 01:25 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: maybe tomorrow. we spent much time on this today, i need a break. | 01:26 |
| alpha__ | ok will you be able to help me on that - not tonight as its been a very hard and taxing night | 01:26 |
| alpha__ | of course | 01:27 |
| alpha__ | many many thanks for your help | 01:27 |
| alpha__ | you certianly know your way around ubuntu | 01:27 |
| tomreyn | alpha__: welcome. let's talk tomorrow and we'll see. | 01:28 |
| alpha__ | ok many thanks for all your help and time - i really do appricate your efforts | 01:28 |
| alpha__ | i say good night now | 01:29 |

| jerichowasahoax | super-duper: you're probably referring to pipelight, which is obsolete tech | 02:07 |
| jerichowasahoax | netflix migrated away from silverlight so it should Just Work™ now, so pipelight was abandoned as a project | 02:08 |
| jerichowasahoax | which is kind of a bummer because there are still other silverlight based sites that i need to use every once in a while but apparently netflix is the only one that matters to people | 02:08 |

| wyseguy | havent been on ubuntu in some time, coming back on a T430 and heard that they did away with unity. Is this already released? | 05:36 |

| Kon- | wyseguy, GNOME was the default in the 17.10 stable release, and will remain so in the upcoming 18.04 LTS | 05:38 |
| Kon- | coming out this month | 05:38 |
| wyseguy | okay, should i install 17.10 then upgrade? | 05:38 |
| Kon- | If you can't wait, you might as well try the 18.04 beta now | 05:39 |
| SwedeMike | wyseguy: if you want to install today you can either install 17.10 and upgrade in a few months, or install the 18.04 LTS betas that are now out, and then it'll become 18.04 release as that's available. | 05:39 |
| SwedeMike | wyseguy: 18.04 is not that far off, so if I were you I'd probably try that (if you have the time) | 05:40 |
| wyseguy | ah, okay so just do the beta then upgrade? is the beta pretty much stable? | 05:40 |

| madsj | I purged and reinstalled only some of the xserver-xorg-* packages after having spent several hours to get the Xserver/X11 to start. Now I can't use AltGr and thus can't type at-sign, square brackets etc. | 06:51 |
| EriC^ | madsj: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-input-all | 06:53 |
| === sebastian is now known as Guest37610 | ||
| EriC^ | possibly xserver-xorg-input-evdev | 06:53 |
| EriC^ | madsj: have a look at /var/log/apt/history.log and see which packages it removed as dependencies when you purged stuff maybe and see if you have them installed | 06:54 |
| madsj | EriC^: sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration was also proposed. But I'll try also your suggestion; xserver-xorg-input-all was the one I wanted last night when I couldn't use the keyboard nor mouse in X11 | 06:55 |
| madsj | and obviously also in lightdm | 06:56 |
| EriC^ | Ascavasaion: maybe the same package is faulty for you? read madsj 's post | 06:57 |
| OhPie | Could Linux Ubuntu be a replacement for driver access for games and all video cards? | 06:59 |
| ducasse | OhPie: what do you mean, exactly? | 07:02 |
| Ascavasaion | EriC^: Your advice of sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-input-all worked perfectly. | 07:08 |
| Ascavasaion | EriC^: Thank you. | 07:08 |
| EriC^ | Ascavasaion: great! np | 07:09 |
| punkgeek | Hello, I have problem in booting ubuntu from grub, actually, when I enter ls command in the grub command line, it show me two partition: hd0 and hd0,msdos1 but if i enter: ls (hd0.msdos1) , it say filesystem is unknown, what can i do? | 07:13 |
| EriC^ | punkgeek: do you have a live usb you can boot to troubleshoot? | 07:20 |
| wyseguy | installed 18.04, still looks like unity... hm | 07:24 |
| Kon- | The Ubuntu default GNOME desktop is themed to be familiar to Unity users | 07:24 |
| Kon- | But it's certainly GNOME | 07:25 |
| wyseguy | Kon- how do you get rid of that look and get back to the original look? have to install gnome shell? | 07:25 |
| punkgeek | EriC: yes, now I'm in rescue mode, but i don't know what should i do here | 07:25 |
| wyseguy | confused as its gnome already | 07:25 |
| EriC^ | punkgeek: type "sudo parted -ls" | 07:27 |
| EriC^ | do you have internet connection on the live usb? | 07:27 |
| Kon- | wyseguy, I think gnome-session and vanilla-gnome-desktop | 07:27 |
| Kon- | But I use Kubuntu, myself | 07:27 |
| Kon- | KDE Plasma 5.12 is rock solid and worth a look :) | 07:28 |
| wyseguy | ive just been use to the old gnome look, but ya ill take a look | 07:29 |
| wyseguy | easy apt-get install way to use kubuntu? | 07:30 |
| Kon- | wyseguy, you should be able to just install kubuntu-desktop | 07:31 |
| punkgeek | EriC^: https://beepaste.io/paste/view/rW3Pve here the output | 07:31 |
| EriC^ | punkgeek: it's the 38gb hdd? | 07:32 |
| EriC^ | there seem to be 2? | 07:32 |
| wyseguy | Kon- okay let me do that | 07:32 |
| wyseguy | then just click the cog when logging in and choose kubuntu? | 07:33 |
| wyseguy | its installing now | 07:33 |
| Kon- | I believe so, but honestly I've never switched DEs after an installation | 07:34 |
| wyseguy | okay, shouldn't be hard | 07:34 |
| punkgeek | EriC^: yes | 07:36 |
| EriC^ | punkgeek: try sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt | 07:37 |
| punkgeek | EriC^: Done | 07:42 |

| blackbird1 | Hi, does gcc 7.3 support retpoline ? | 10:05 |

| lex0r | hello there people | 10:07 |
| lotuspsychje | lex0r: welcome, how can we help you? | 10:07 |
| lex0r | i would like to change the program that locks my screen when pressing super + l or when waiting a certain amount of time | 10:08 |

| lotuspsychje | lex0r: havent tested slock myself sorry | 10:13 |
| lotuspsychje | blackbird1: have you tested a previous kernel boot? | 10:15 |

| sima | What should I do with thid ZFS support in Ubuntu, when 'zpool export' command simply does not work, for ZFS shipped with Ubuntu... ? | 10:17 |
| X1Zeth2X | Something simple like predefined themes | 10:17 |
| X1Zeth2X | sima: Have you tried compiling it in the kernel? | 10:17 |
| sima | X1Zeth2X, that would mean installing it from ZfsOnLinux source and not using Ubuntu-shipped ZFS? is that what you are suggesting. Because modules are compiled and working on every kernel update as I understand... | 10:19 |
| blackbird1 | lotuspsychje: Uninstalling the -119 kernel and reinstalling it with the updated version of gcc. | 10:19 |
| sima | It works, just it can't export the pool.. | 10:19 |

| brainwash | lex0r: I would disable the unity lock screen in the system settings, and then use xss-lock to automatically call my preferred screen locker | 10:30 |
| brainwash | lex0r: also, change or create a new keyboard shortcut for it | 10:30 |
| lotuspsychje | brainwash: +1 | 10:31 |
| lex0r | join #ubuntu-unity | 10:32 |
| brainwash | you'll have to add the xss-lock command to the startup applications | 10:33 |
| brainwash | so yeah, it's a bit hacky | 10:33 |
| brainwash | is there a reason why you want to replace the unity lock screen? | 10:33 |
| lex0r | oh, brainwash, sorry, didnt see your messages | 10:34 |
| lex0r | ahmm, well, i just like to customize my setup a bit. of course the default one works fine. its just that i think slock is really cool | 10:34 |
| brainwash | ah ok | 10:34 |
| lotuspsychje | xscreensaver is nice too | 10:35 |
| lex0r | the shortcut bit would be easy to change, new shortcut and stuff | 10:35 |
| lex0r | but the automatic lock after a certain time period seems a bit arder | 10:35 |
| brainwash | I've described how to do it | 10:35 |
| brainwash | there is xautolock also. it can trigger slock after some inactivity | 10:36 |
| brainwash | best so read the man pages for xss-lock and xautolock | 10:36 |
| lex0r | I'll do that. thanks brainwash and lotuspsychje | 10:38 |

| squeakytoy2 | lotuspsychje, like i said a bazillion | 10:56 |
| lotuspsychje | squeakytoy2: hence why to avoid ftp :p | 10:56 |
| squeakytoy2 | for my case, ftp is good enough | 10:57 |

| squeakytoy2 | lotuspsychje, you are not helping =( | 10:57 |
| lotuspsychje | squeakytoy2: i am, ssh instead | 10:57 |
| squeakytoy2 | lotuspsychje, thats not helping, sorry | 10:58 |
| squeakytoy2 | thats you preaching =( | 10:58 |
| lotuspsychje | squeakytoy2: what do you want, we reccomend you an unsafe protocol? | 10:58 |
| squeakytoy2 | lotuspsychje, i already picked the protocol, i didnt ask for a debate regarding the protocol =( | 10:59 |
| lotuspsychje | squeakytoy2: you picked, but we dont support here | 10:59 |
| squeakytoy2 | support what here? | 11:00 |
| lotuspsychje | squeakytoy2: #vsftpd also locked for ages by now | 11:00 |
| lotuspsychje | !support | squeakytoy2 | 11:00 |

| squeakytoy2 | and? | 11:00 |
| lotuspsychje | squeakytoy2: so we support ubuntu related issues here | 11:00 |
| squeakytoy2 | then why give me advice on network sharing and openssh? | 11:01 |
| michael2 | hi all, does anyone know how to find which firmware files - if any - are being flashed onto my wifi chipset at boot? I have found the wifi chipset identifier with the command lspci -nn - but I can't match the identifier to any files in the "linux-firmware" package | 11:01 |
| lotuspsychje | squeakytoy2: network sharing and openssh are supported packages/protocols from the ubuntu repos | 11:01 |

| bazhang | nikolam, contact the PPA maintainer, we cannot support PPA here | 11:21 |

| nikolam | R13ose, yes, thanks for links, but it is rather easy to install and use ZFS on Ubuntu, problem is that there is a bug on 'zpool export' and newer PPA binaries can't install and current have problem. Maybe i should install 18.04 and try it out | 11:37 |

| CryptoSiD | even ctrl+alt +del don't reboot the server, it totaly freeze | 12:21 |
| wiq | Hey tomreyn, after you asked me yesterday to DRI_PRIME=1 to /etc/environment for making my AMD graphic card default. I restarted it and all the transparency in any windows/console are gone away and also while scrolling on any webpage in browser the text is flickering | 12:25 |
| CryptoSiD | humm I booted on a rescue cd and mounted the root partition to /mnt/temp/ but when i do chroot /mnt/temp/ the server freeze completely | 12:27 |
| CryptoSiD | not sure how i'll be able to reset the root password? | 12:27 |
| brainwash | wiq: revert the change | 12:30 |
| eraserpencil | why is my aptitude searching through arm sources? | 12:37 |
| wiq | brainwash, yeah. tried doing that. the graphic card changed to intel but still no transparency effect and all | 12:39 |
| brainwash | wiq: not sure why there's a permanent change | 12:40 |
| wiq | found it. > OpenGL compositing (the default) has crashed KWin in the past. | 12:40 |
| wiq | This was most likely due to a driver bug. | 12:40 |
| wiq | If you think that you have meanwhile upgraded to a stable driver, | 12:40 |
| wiq | you can reset this protection but be aware that this might result in an immediate crash! | 12:40 |
| wiq | Alternatively, you might want to use the XRender backend instead. | 12:40 |
| wiq | Fixed | 12:41 |
| brainwash | aha | 12:41 |
| wiq | brainwash, but why did that happened? | 12:41 |
| wiq | brainwash, does that mean i cannot ever use my AMD graphic card in ubuntu? | 12:42 |
| brainwash | because using the AMD gpu did cause an issue | 12:42 |
| brainwash | maybe you can, but setting DRI_PRIME=1 for everything may be not the right way | 12:42 |
| wiq | How can I set DRI_PRIME=1 for some specific apps? bera | 12:43 |
| wiq | brainwash, * | 12:43 |
| brainwash | you create a new launcher for that app | 12:44 |
| wiq | ok, then? brainwash | 12:44 |
| brainwash | with the command "env DRI_PRIME=1 <application>" | 12:44 |
| brainwash | then you use that launcher instead | 12:44 |
| brainwash | that's something one would primarily use for games or 3D applications | 12:45 |
| wiq | brainwash, so, for eg, when i do this to firefox. then firefox will use AMD gpu instead of intel? right? | 12:45 |
| brainwash | I guess | 12:45 |
| SlidingHorn | eraserpencil, chances are you have an arm source in your sources.list... cat /etc/apt/sources.list | nc termbin.com 9999 | 12:45 |
| wiq | Ok. Thanks brainwash :) | 12:46 |
| brainwash | wiq: in firefox you can open "about:support". it will tell you which gpu is detected and being used. | 12:46 |
| wiq | brainwash, nice. i can see that currently it is using intel one | 12:47 |
| eraserpencil | SlidingHorn: what does the reply mean? | 12:48 |
| SlidingHorn | eraserpencil, you said your apt was searching arm sources...that command will show us your sources.list file so we can find out why | 12:49 |

| Octa-X | SlidingHorn, was i talking to you ? | 14:07 |
| mifritscher1 | and then forces the user to do a "up" movement with the mouse | 14:07 |
| Octa-X | or chatting ? | 14:07 |
| mifritscher1 | (wipe in form of the movement, not on the form of removing/killing) | 14:08 |
| mifritscher1 | the same thing which windows 8 introduced | 14:09 |

| Irritiable|LT | Is there a native networking diagnostic tool to fine-tune the RTS/CTS/Threshold values? | 14:47 |
| MJCD | Irritiable|LT, you dont generally play with those values... | 14:47 |
| MJCD | not since dialup haha | 14:47 |
| Irritiable|LT | Or generic TCP-based values (EG: packet data length / memory / etc)? | 14:47 |
| MJCD | you might want to ask in ##networking for more info | 14:47 |
| Irritiable|LT | MJCD: I'm not sure why you wouldn't. MTU has a huge impact. | 14:47 |
| Irritiable|LT | We're discussing felines in ##networking currently. | 14:48 |
| MJCD | Irritiable|LT, its usually defined by the link | 14:48 |
| MJCD | which can be anything | 14:48 |
| akem | MJCD, about Wayland, on the website they said because X is old and not very adapted to todays' usage, lots of unused net stuff in the architecture... | 14:49 |
| Irritiable|LT | MJCD: Ergo: Diagnostic tool native to Linux. | 14:49 |
| Irritiable|LT | Wireshark wouldn't have it, I assume. | 14:49 |

| lapaga | -18.04 will be using xorg | 14:51 |
| BluesKaj | it is | 14:52 |
| MJCD | Irritiable|LT, as I say, its something you are TOLD the mtu etc etc. Your network device just uses what its given otherwise it wouldn't be understood | 14:52 |
| Irritiable|LT | MJCD: The MTU is mirroring the router's MTU currently (ideal). Which is set just below the total TCP max. | 14:53 |
| MJCD | Irritiable|LT, yeah, that's pretty standard | 14:53 |
| Irritiable|LT | My main concern is the RTS/CTS values. | 14:53 |

| compdoc | superkuh, I update my servers not long after each new LTS version is released | 15:19 |
| superkuh | No thanks. | 15:19 |
| superkuh | I'm not looking for official support. Just unofficial. | 15:19 |
| jkemppainen | superkuh: If you were aware that it's not supported, there is no need for sarcasm. You should be well aware you're not going to get help here. | 15:19 |
| OhPie | I'll drop it. But I will Note it. | 15:19 |

| SlidingHorn | thank. you. | 15:20 |
| superkuh | I do apologize for the snark. It's just a bit frustrating that everyone thinks end of support means end of discussion. | 15:20 |

| OhPie | horrible freenode meanness | 15:21 |
| OhPie | it's cool | 15:21 |
| superkuh | That is a good idea. I just figured there might be some other users here. | 15:21 |
| === Mutter is now known as qmake | ||
| superkuh | Oh! I figured it out. The mirror I'm using doesn't have it. Gotta switch back to canonical main. | 15:23 |
| superkuh | Huh. I am using 'Main Server". I guess the load balancer sent me to 91.189.91.15 which doesn't have it despite archive.canonical.com having it. | 15:24 |
| superkuh | But archive.canonical.com resolves to 91.189.91.15 | 15:25 |
| superkuh | http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/partner/binary-amd64/ works. But 1 http://91.189.91.15/ubuntu/dists/lucid/partner/binary-amd64/ does not. | 15:25 |
| superkuh | So... not a problem on my end. | 15:26 |
| superkuh | Might want to check out your archive servers are configured. | 15:26 |
| lapaga | did you check if there was anything in that archive server? | 15:29 |
| ioria | superkuh, 91.189.92.191 for me | 15:29 |
| superkuh | Yeah. That one works here too. | 15:29 |
| superkuh | So maybe if I flush my DNS I can get a working one. | 15:30 |
| ioria | maybe | 15:30 |
| superkuh | Yep. 91.189.91.15 is bad, nothing there at all. Unconfigured apache. | 15:36 |
| superkuh | Maybe take that one out of the load balancer rotation. | 15:36 |
| superkuh | I figure this is an appropriate topic of conversation even if lucid is no longer supported. The archive servers should be. | 15:37 |
| jkemppainen | Yes, that's fine -- I didn't say anything since this does involve an official Canonical server/site that should be up. | 15:37 |
| sheldon | Haha | 15:37 |
| jkemppainen | That being said, I don't know if any of the Canonical infra/network team hangs out there, the people who configure the roundrobin rotation addresses. | 15:38 |
| jkemppainen | s/there/here | 15:38 |
| superkuh | And that's why I get frustrated with the instant chorus of 'not supported'. | 15:38 |
| ioria | superkuh, why don't you use old-release repos ? | 15:38 |
| superkuh | I think I used to? But they went away for lucid. If I'm recalling correctly. | 15:39 |
| superkuh | Alright. Well, it's no worry. It'll get flushed out when I reboot or whatever and there's nothing pressing. | 15:39 |

| ozberk | hi guys does ubuntu still supports phenom 6 processors ? | 19:08 |
| ozberk | and how is the overall performance on ubuntu 18.04 | 19:08 |
| gusteru | hi, anyone can help me about repository for raspberry 3 with ubuntu ? thanks | 19:08 |
| bodie__ | hey, trying to get my front audio jack for ACL1220 to work in ubuntu 17.10 | 19:08 |
| bodie__ | I have it plugged in and the audio settings sees "headphone", but nothing is coming out | 19:09 |
| ioria | blackbird1, btw 340 is a bit old... what nvidia card do you have ? | 19:10 |
| bodie__ | here's my ALSA debug details: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=257c5b04d2f734a6138f6629eebed9a9adcbe91d | 19:10 |
| ozberk | bodie__: first you need to activate your front pannel from bios. It must be your prodouct not HD Audio for front panel. Then open a terminal and do sudo alsamixer. You'll see a setting called headphone and currently it is muted. Press M to unmute it and rise volume up | 19:10 |
| bodie__ | ozberk, it works in windows so I don't think it's a bios config issue, and when I open alsamixer "headphone" isn't listed as muted | 19:11 |
| Bashing-om | blackbird1: "The Linux 304.* legacy driver series is the last to support the NV4x and G7x GPUs and motherboard chipsets based on them. Support for new Linux kernels and X servers, as well as fixes for critical bugs, will be included in 304.* legacy releases through the end of 2017." | 19:11 |
| bodie__ | ozberk, however, I noticed that the default selection seems to be the NVidia hdmi, and I just want to use my front panel hd audio jackl | 19:12 |
| bodie__ | s/jackl/jack | 19:12 |
| bodie__ | i'm gonna reboot and be back in a minute... i'll check the BIOS | 19:12 |
| bodie__ | however, I don't understand what you mean by "it must be your product" | 19:13 |
| ozberk | bodie__: well it seems alsamxer trying to make output from hdmi or something | 19:13 |
| blackbird1 | ioria: nvidia GeForce 210 | 19:13 |
| ozberk | bodie__: well in my case bios shows two diffrent prodoucts for the front pannel. First is the HD Audio and second is something like ACL29 | 19:13 |
| bodie__ | yes, that's the problem lol. how do i set the default to the ACL1220? | 19:13 |
| bodie__ | hm, I see | 19:14 |
| gusteru | hi, anyone can help me about repository for raspberry 3 with ubuntu ? thanks. | 19:14 |
| bodie__ | brb | 19:14 |
| gusteru | ly dangerous to use. | 19:15 |
| gusteru | N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details. | 19:15 |
| ioria | blackbird1, maybe the latest for that card is 340 | 19:18 |
| gusteru | hi, anyone can help me about repository for raspberry 3 with ubuntu ? thanks. | 19:20 |
| ioria | blackbird1, well, purge nvidia*; reboot on 119; replace gcc version, and try again with 340; other than that use nouveau | 19:22 |

| m0rd3cai | Anyone running a ubuntu VM in Azure cloud? Trying to setup the server but I have to have root password.

| Ntemis | need help for this | 20:19 |
| Ntemis | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/pGn5xYsVfb/ | 20:19 |
| akik | m0rd3cai: maybe it's just a problem that your system is not creating /var/run/mysqld? not sure why you talk about the root password? | 20:21 |
| akik | m0rd3cai: if you need to change the root password, use "sudo passwd" | 20:22 |
| m0rd3cai | akik whats confusing to me is the tutorial states to use mariadb but appears to be looking for mysql connection. ive checked netstat -l and i dont see /var/run/mysqld. | 20:24 |
| akik | m0rd3cai: mariadb is the new version of mysql. you wouldn't see the directory /var/run/mysqld with netstat | 20:24 |
| m0rd3cai | the root password is required to run mysql_secure_installation. when i created the vm with Azure, it never prompted for a root password. | 20:25 |
| akik | i think it's a fork of mysql | 20:25 |
| m0rd3cai | ahh ok, that makes more sense | 20:25 |

| akik | m0rd3cai: sudo passwd -l root | 20:27 |
| m0rd3cai | i have, i can Sudo -s and go right into root. thats what i dont get. Its got to be an issue looking for the wrong socket. | 20:28 |

| leftyfb | kashi2018: try smbclient | 21:29 |
| vlt | sere: There might me easier solutions but I use Jack audio for routing tasks like this. | 21:29 |
| akik | kashi2018: what does NET do? i haven't seen that command in ubuntu | 21:30 |
| kashi2018 | net getauthuser Get the winbind auth user settings net time Show/set time net lookup Look up host names/IP addresses net g_lock Manipulate the global lock table net join Join a domain/AD net dom Join/unjoin (remote) machines to/from a domain/AD net cache Operate on the cache tdb file net getlocalsid Get the SID for the local domain net setlocalsid Set the SID f | 21:30 |

| azizLIGHT | help i cannot get a gui past login prompt. im on 14.04, i updated from nvidia-381 to nvidia-384 from the graphics-drivers ppa when this happened. please advice | 21:49 |
| azizLIGHT | how do i go back to nvidia-381 | 21:50 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: At the login screen, key conbo ctl+alt+F1 . Can you log into the system in this virtual console ? | 21:54 |
| azizLIGHT | yes im already in there | 21:54 |
| azizLIGHT | i tried to do sudo apt remove nvidia-384 and sudo apt install nvidia-381 | 21:54 |
| azizLIGHT | but its saying nvidia-381 has no installation candidate | 21:54 |
| ozberk | ubuntu 14.06 lts works wa more better than newer releases. | 21:56 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: In the firmware disable secure boot, and run terminal commands' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf ; sudo apt purge nvidia ; sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' . I do not think 381 is in the repo ! .. Now did you install 381 version ??? maybe change the purge procedure ?? | 21:58 |
| azizLIGHT | i installed 381 when it was available. now its not there anymore in the ppa | 21:58 |
| azizLIGHT | this happens to me too often | 21:58 |
| vlt | ozberk: That doesn't sound like a valid version number to me. | 21:58 |
| azizLIGHT | when i decide to update, they removed the version i on and if my update fails im screwed | 21:58 |
| azizLIGHT | Bashing-om: ok. i will try it | 21:59 |
| leftyfb | ozberk: there is no 14.06 | 22:00 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: Cheap insurance here . what returns : sudo find / -name "NVIDIA-Linux-*" | 22:00 |
| azizLIGHT | i believe i have secure boot off | 22:01 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: Best know about secure boot . if "on" can not install the proprietary driver . | 22:03 |
| akik | was there a problem with nvidia-381 that it was removed? | 22:03 |
| azizLIGHT | my bios is not specific about it. it asks me to select windows 8 boot features. help text says if you select windows 8, secure boot optiosn c0will be shown. i have selected 'other os' so i dont see it | 22:04 |
| azizLIGHT | Bashing-om: i see old versions i saved ... 340.46.run file | 22:04 |
| azizLIGHT | i ttied booting with a older kernel. it does the same thing. when i enter my password at the gui prompt, it tries to load gui and then goes back to the password prompt | 22:05 |
| azizLIGHT | *tried | 22:05 |

| akik | azizLIGHT: is ~/.Xauthority owned by you? | 22:07 |
| ozberk | because I have been a bonehad. Ubuntu 16.04 is far more stable than the newer releases | 22:07 |
| ozberk | like windows it is just works without issues | 22:08 |
| ozberk | amazing | 22:08 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: yes its owned by me 600 | 22:09 |
| azizLIGHT | Bashing-om: what was the purge command? nvidia- ? | 22:09 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: does it print the error in /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 22:09 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: or ~/.xsession-errors | 22:10 |
| azizLIGHT | i see a log in Xorg.0.log yes | 22:11 |
| azizLIGHT | looks like the most recent boot, apr 8 | 22:11 |
| === dan_ is now known as Guest78576 | ||
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: I do highly suggest getting rid of the OEM nvidia drivers . even nvidia advises not to install them but rather from our repo . | 22:12 |
| laserbeak4445 | I just installed 18.04 and wow. The minimal installation option is really neat. Just the strict basic stuff and no amazon ad. Definitively a really nice improvement. :) | 22:12 |
| vlt | ozberk: That's a bit intentional. The April releases in even years are LTS, the following releases a bit more experimental to try new stuff and stabilize it until the next LTS release. | 22:12 |
| azizLIGHT | Bashing-om: well im asking becasue apt is saying nvidia is not installed. maybe you meant nvidia-something-else | 22:13 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: im trying to read the log | 22:13 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: apt will not know about OEM : "i see old versions i saved ... 340.46.run file" . | 22:16 |
| azizLIGHT | Bashing-om: its just a install file in my downloads folder | 22:16 |
| azizLIGHT | as far as whats installed. lets see | 22:16 |
| kashi2018 | I am glad, I am able to connect my Iphone with my ubuntu machine successfully after running 30 minutes of instructions scripts and can now Transfer all Files from Phone ubuntu machine. | 22:17 |
| azizLIGHT | i see rc for nvidia-378, rc for nvidia-381, and then ii for nvidia-384 | 22:18 |
| azizLIGHT | in dpkg -l | grep nvidia | 22:18 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: did you check /var/cache/apt/archives if it has the 381 deb? | 22:18 |
| venmx | leftyfb: im using 16.04 | 22:19 |
| leftyfb | venmx: ok? | 22:19 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: only nvidia-384 deb | 22:19 |
| venmx | just did dist-upgrade and it hung on boot on latest kernel ...38 | 22:20 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: the xorg log said failed to initialize nvidia kernel module | 22:20 |
| azizLIGHT | please see the system's kernel log | 22:20 |
| azizLIGHT | [drm] KMS not enabled | 22:20 |
| kostkon | venmx, pastebin the output | 22:20 |
| venmx | i dont get to see output as i never get to post messages | 22:21 |
| venmx | i use encrypted hdd | 22:21 |
| kostkon | venmx, oh non trivial stuff | 22:21 |
| venmx | i fix by reverting to last kernel in grub | 22:21 |
| azizLIGHT | how can i pastebin from cli. sprunge doesnt seem to work anymore | 22:22 |
| azizLIGHT | i tried booting my last kernel as well, but same thing happened | 22:22 |
| kostkon | !pastebinit | azizLIGHT | 22:22 |
| ubottu | azizLIGHT: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit | 22:22 |
| azizLIGHT | http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SY5NHtd3mZ/ | 22:23 |
| azizLIGHT | and this is kernel log http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/D2T8P4mYVv | 22:24 |
| m0rd3cai | Thanks TJ, that worked. Went through bash history, the command was sent to restart mariadb but it failed to start back up. running service start fixed it. Now to finish | 22:25 |

| azizLIGHT | Bashing-om: should i do sudo apt purge nvidia-381 nvidia 384 | 22:30 |
| azizLIGHT | welp i guess ill try nvidia-390 | 22:32 |
| azizLIGHT | thats what your last command is doing, sudo apt ubuntu-drivers autoinstall | 22:32 |
| azizLIGHT | getting 390 now | 22:32 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: My thought rrmains to insure that the OEM drivers are not in existence . Also awaiting akik's inputs . | 22:33 |
| Bashing-om | rrmains/remains* | 22:33 |
| akik | sorry i have no more inputs. was just wondering why nvidia-381 was removed | 22:33 |
| azizLIGHT | hmmm i dont know how to ensure that. when i did install 346, it was a long time ago and since then i migrated to the ppa, but i dont know to what extent 346 was removed | 22:34 |
| azizLIGHT | and by 346, i mean the OEM things | 22:34 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: Presently all we know is the the 384 driver did not build . | 22:34 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: this isnt the first time the current drivers from ppa i am on got removed from the ppa, while i tried to upgrade to newer versions on the ppa | 22:35 |
| azizLIGHT | apt is saying DKMS install completed for nvidia-390. iw will reboot and see how ti goes | 22:35 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: oh it didn't come from the ubuntu repository? i took a look at packages.ubuntu.com and couldn't find it there | 22:36 |
| akik | !info nvidia-381 | 22:36 |
| ubottu | Package nvidia-381 does not exist in artful | 22:36 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: pastenbin sudo find / -name "NVIDIA-Linux-*" .... you have to run the .run file again with --uninstall . | 22:36 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: nvidia-381 existed in the graphics-drivers ppa when it was there | 22:36 |
| azizLIGHT | ok. installed 390, and same issue after login on gui. it goes back to login prompt. Xorg.0.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/QG5wydrP7J/ and then dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Dnt5SWr7WQ/ | 22:40 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: do you need to blacklist nouveau? | 22:41 |
| azizLIGHT | i am not sure. how can i do that | 22:41 |
| azizLIGHT | do i need to do that? | 22:42 |
| akik | i don't know | 22:43 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: dmesg shows multiple lines for the nvidia kernel module | 22:46 |
| azizLIGHT | i have 2-3 kernels in stalled i think | 22:47 |
| azizLIGHT | that might be why? | 22:47 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: Secure boot preventing the build ? what shows ' mokutil --sb-state ' ? I expect the tool will need installing . | 22:47 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: retpoline is the mitigation for the cpu problems | 22:48 |
| azizLIGHT | Bashing-om: it says secureboot disabled | 22:48 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: i was looking at that and didnt know what to make of it | 22:48 |
| akik | somehow that kernel module magic string does not match what is expected | 22:49 |
| azizLIGHT | where can i adjust this information | 22:49 |
| azizLIGHT | to fix it | 22:50 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: sorry i don't know. when those fixes started coming up, my older nvidia card module stopped working too | 22:54 |
| wyseguy | ayeooo | 22:55 |
| azizLIGHT | googling this retpoline stuff to see what people know | 22:56 |
| SB1 | Hi | 22:58 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: do you have a current kernel? | 22:58 |
| SB1 | Are there any open source utility for ubuntu 16.04 LAPTOP WEBCAM? Read to install ? | 22:58 |
| azizLIGHT | im looking at /usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.144/include/linux/vermagic.h about retpoline as in this last messgae: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1030325/nvidia-driver-installation-v387-26-on-ubuntu-16-04/ | 22:59 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: i have 3.13.144 | 22:59 |
| azizLIGHT | 3.13.0-144 | 22:59 |
| vlt | SB1: cheese | 22:59 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: that guys last message says his workaround works | 22:59 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: good luck! :) | 23:00 |
| azizLIGHT | i dont understand this h file syntax however, along with the diff stuff ... i dont want to mess it up | 23:00 |
| SB1 | any ubuntu 16.04 software to make use of my labtop webcam | 23:00 |
| rud0lf | cheese ? | 23:00 |
| akik | "It is just a workaround until a real fix is there." | 23:01 |
| rud0lf | SB1: | 23:01 |
| azizLIGHT | is it correct to say he just commented the line out with /* blabla */ | 23:01 |
| SB1 | https://opensource.com/life/16/1/getting-started-qtcam-linux-webcam | 23:01 |
| SB1 | I don't know how to compile to source code for QtCAM | 23:01 |

| === dan_ is now known as Guest58720 | ||

| azizLIGHT | or something else? | 23:04 |
| mark721 | hi guys, had a quick question regarding copying and pasting? I realised if i copy using the mouse, i can't always paste using the keyboard after, i have to paste using the mouse | 23:06 |
| mark721 | is this normal | 23:06 |
| wyseguy | mark721 not sure | 23:06 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: ......... IT WORKED | 23:06 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: yes it is | 23:06 |
| azizLIGHT | Bashing-om: it worked | 23:06 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, can i stop this behaviour? | 23:06 |
| azizLIGHT | im in my gui now | 23:06 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: i dont know | 23:06 |
| bobo_ | hi, anybody online? | 23:07 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: i think you can copy with the keyboard and with the mouse | 23:07 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: and paste 2 different things | 23:07 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: as you wish | 23:07 |
| SB1 | cheese | 23:07 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, yeah thats whats happening but i dont like it | 23:07 |
| maxcell_ | why not, you can copy 2 diff. things | 23:07 |
| mark721 | scenario im in sublime and i need to copy the file path so right click copy file path, now im in the terminal trying to paste the file path using the shorcut, and its not working, then i have to use the mouse, its just inconvenient | 23:08 |
| bobo_ | i got the problem with my persistent ubuntu usb ... 2 days ago stop showing dashboard and top sidebar, every application have to turn on via individual terminal ... | 23:08 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: great | 23:09 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, just because it can be useful doesnt mean its convenient :) | 23:09 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: hmm i got you, but if you click the middle-mouse-button it will paste | 23:09 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: and for copy , you only need to pass the mouse throught the letters, dont need to right-click-copy | 23:09 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: pass the mouse, middle-click, thats it | 23:09 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, no in sublime to copy u have to right click | 23:10 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, in order to copy filepath | 23:10 |
| wyseguy | 2018 issues | 23:10 |
| bobo_ | tried adduser and restart lightdm.service as i got advised ... tried dconf reset, nohup ... , reinstall compiz, reinstall unity ... | 23:10 |
| bobo_ | nothing worked | 23:10 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: what is sublime/ | 23:10 |
| mark721 | Sublime Text ? its a text editor | 23:10 |
| maxcell_ | let me see | 23:10 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, https://www.sublimetext.com/ | 23:11 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: you sure that you can't just mark the letters and press middle button/ | 23:12 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: im going to leave a comment there for people to do sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-whatever. so noobs can fix their graphics update if botched | 23:12 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, the filepath isn't written so i cant highlight anything :) | 23:13 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, i have found a work around via ur advice tho | 23:13 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: i wanted to ask you. since i have problems usually when i do graphics update, how can i ensure a fallback. this time i didnt have my working nvidia-381 available to install. how do i prevent this | 23:13 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, you said that keyboard is separate from mouse, i made a custom sublime shorcut using this https://superuser.com/questions/636057/how-to-set-shortcut-for-copy-file-path-in-sublime-text-3 | 23:13 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, so its now fixed ty bro | 23:13 |
| Bashing-om | azizLIGHT: :) .. playing catchup amd making notes . | 23:14 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: thats inconvenient indeed, but i'm not sure that this is a linux problem, seems like a editor problem | 23:14 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: the debs are usually saved in /var/cache/apt/archives so that could be one way | 23:14 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, i mean, the issue is imho that copy and paste should have one clipboard regardless of being a mouse or a keyboard | 23:14 |
| akik | azizLIGHT: it would be good if you can write a full description how you did it | 23:14 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, its just the only time it really annoys me is during this one particular use case | 23:14 |
| azizLIGHT | will do akik | 23:15 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: yeah i mean, i think this editor could have a little update to make it work well on linux, because i really like this option of paste with middle click | 23:15 |
| akik | 14.04 is still supported for a year | 23:15 |
| maxcell_ | mark721: i think its very fast and, yeah, maybe you have a way to modify this behavior anyway | 23:16 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, https://superuser.com/questions/272925/ubuntu-behaves-as-if-i-have-two-clipboards#comment744872_272934 i mean its an opinion thing imho i never use middle click paste, i think i even tried to disable it | 23:16 |
| azizLIGHT | akik: ill just backup the debs then to a different place. because they seem to go away after some time | 23:17 |
| mark721 | maxcell_, anyway i need to run ty coz u helped me fix the issue | 23:17 |
| royal_screwup21 | what would be the quickest way to rename the files in a folder? I have a bunch of files inside a folder and I want to rename all of them to a name I have in mind | 23:49 |
