| kostkon | new0, about the number of packages? | 00:00 |

| new0 | kostkon, yes | 00:00 |
| kostkon | new0, here http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/QGDMM7Xmyt/ | 00:01 |
| new0 | kostkon, ahh nice one :) | 00:02 |
| new0 | kostkon, so... what dist-upgrade actually does? unlike update | 00:02 |
| new0 | hooo man. it's even updating the Sublime-Text in my OS | 00:04 |
| kostkon | new0, generally it can also remove or add new packages | 00:04 |
| new0 | i thought it's only upgrading the System not the software/applications | 00:04 |
| kostkon | new0, everything can be updated in ubuntu. more or less | 00:05 |
| new0 | kostkon, so i can go few version back for some software/application? | 00:05 |
| kostkon | new0, no, it's not easy to do that | 00:05 |
| new0 | kostkon, yes but didn't know about the apps too | 00:05 |
| new0 | ho ok | 00:05 |
| new0 | so... what is the diff? dist-upgrade and update? | 00:05 |
| kostkon | new0, unlike update it can also add or remove packages and handle the associated dependencies a little better | 00:07 |

| guiverc | update - updates your software repository lists. upgrade - upgrades your software versions with certain restrictions. dist-upgrade does upgrade plus packages upgrade couldn't touch. (see 'man apt-get' for more info) | 00:08 |

| rud0lf | i have some bash and python scripts that i would like to be system-wide (for all users); what is the best way to place them on PATH? | 00:26 |
| rud0lf | without mangling with PATH variable itself | 00:26 |
| rud0lf | /usr/bin ? /usr/local/bin ? | 00:26 |
| guiverc | rud0lf: i'd use /usr/local/bin/ - but if you have policies; stick to those | 00:26 |
| rud0lf | nah | 00:27 |
| rud0lf | thanks for suggestion | 00:27 |
| rud0lf | nah: i don't have policies | 00:27 |
| new0 | hi it's just asking me about the Configuring grub-pc whether i should keep my own modification or "install the package maintainer's version" is there new commnad or new setting to grub from 14.04 LTS? | 00:28 |
| guiverc | new0: do you know your change? if I make a change (esp. once I know why/what i did), i always accept 'package maintainers' version knowing it may overwrite my change; as I can always re-do my change (why I work out what I did first!) | 00:30 |
| new0 | guiverc, yes. i figure since that might be the case.. i did go the /etc/default/grub and cp to grub.backup-modified so i can always backup my changes | 00:32 |
| new0 | guiverc, just wanted to make sure i will not sure something immediatly when upgrading new system | 00:33 |
| new0 | so i kept the package maintainers's version | 00:33 |
| new0 | tnx | 00:33 |
| fbn | hi @ll, where can I ask a question regarding Ubuntu MaaS and what the cheapest power outlet is supported by it (to power cycle) ? | 00:33 |
| guiverc | new0: yep. i usually switch to term, to ensure I made a grub.cfg.blah.yyyy-mm-dd (ie. i leave breadcrumbs as doco) backup of file, so i can `diff` and check what was changed etc... | 00:34 |
| guiverc | ditto /etc/default/grub or any other file | 00:35 |
| new0 | guiverc, nice thinking by date :) love it | 00:35 |
| guiverc | (the blah is usually my username, short-reason etc) | 00:35 |
| new0 | omg i think i just run out of space | 00:36 |
| guiverc | new0: you can re-do the command and i'll continue (once you have cleared the space issue). if you're not worried about bandwidth you could always `sudo apt autoclean;sudo apt autoremove` but this will cause downloaed non-installed packages to be re-downloaded, so more efficient would be you deleting whatever you know you can (on / or full partition) | 00:38 |

| JHOSMAN | # apt install nano Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package nano is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'nano' has no installation candidate | 00:43 |
| new0 | guiverc, tnx | 00:43 |

| guiverc | sorry but I don't what you mean by crush. crash? | 00:45 |
| new0 | guiverc, yes crash. sorry for my english :) | 00:46 |
| guiverc | system no, apps - who knows (i'd expect not; but varies on app). do you often clean space? if you never do, the commands i gave assumed that was the case | 00:46 |
| new0 | guiverc, what cmd? | 00:50 |
| oerheks | JHOSMAN, is there no nano standard in Debian? in Ubuntu it is ... | 00:51 |
| guiverc | `sudo apt autoremove; sudo apt autoclean` - but will cause non-installed packages to be redownloaded again (using some space again; i'm hoping it'll clear more used space that just the will get used again) | 00:51 |
| new0 | yep. E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) i think it's because the space issue | 00:52 |
| new0 | ok | 00:52 |
| new0 | is it possible that all the update and upgrade dist-upgrade took more than 1GB or space? | 00:54 |
| JHOSMAN | oerheks: see the log with my local apt-mirror in the moment of try install nano | 00:54 |
| JHOSMAN | https://pastebin.com/a9TY92zQ | 00:54 |
| guiverc | new0: i don't know how long it was since your last upgrade/dist-upgrade thus size of packages to be upgraded, let alone prior clutter you'd not cleaned... 1gb is large yes, but if you've tons of packages & not done in awhile then yes | 00:55 |
| new0 | guiverc, it's must be udge | 00:58 |

| new0 | guiverc, Q about the OS when i am moving a Folder with a lot of files. is the OS waiting to clear the space from the source drive until all the moving Folder is been moved? or does it clear the space for every file been moved? (after been moved probably been also deleted from source and copied to destination) | 01:04 |
| yosef | Sounds Good n I am also looking at installing the updates. I asked this question because I cannot get VLC player to play dvd's n I have installed the Codecs n still no luck. maybe this is a seperate issue away from this site. | 01:05 |

| netbookfound | hello guys | 01:11 |
| guiverc_ | new0: when moving folder of files (sorry I stepped out, better if you direct the question to anyone); if on the same drive I'd expect no copy/delete as same inodes (blocks or sectors on drive) would contain data, just the directory entries are moved (not inodes containing data), if moving actual drive then this doesn't apply | 01:11 |
| netbookfound | I was wondering if I could revive an old netbook with only 2GB of storage and 512MB of ram with a minimal install | 01:11 |
| new0 | kostkon, btw it seems that you were right!! now the system popup me with "Software Update" The computer needs to restart to finish installing updates. | 01:11 |
| netbookfound | or should I look for other distros | 01:11 |
| xamithan | Nah ubuntu isn't going to run with 512mb RAM unless you don't need a DE | 01:13 |
| slidinghorn | netbookfound: any minimal distro will do just about the same for you | 01:13 |
| new0 | guiverc_, tnx but that's ok :) | 01:13 |
| guiverc_ | sorry my text was unclear.. a move on same drive means data isn't touched (data being stored on sectors or inodes on fs), just the directory entries require movement (from old location to new one) | 01:13 |
| slidinghorn | xamithan: hence, why they said minimal... | 01:13 |
| netbookfound | well, I don't intend to do anything serious with this | 01:13 |
| netbookfound | even lxde struggled to run and anything other than the distro itself and a couple of packages the disk would run out of space | 01:14 |
| slidinghorn | netbookfound: you could start with a minimal install, and likely some extra light WM and maybe even a small browser (depends on exactly what you want to do with it) | 01:15 |
| netbookfound | likely a machine dedicated to IRC and related | 01:16 |
| netbookfound | so I was thinking putting i3 and a lightweight browser like midori just in case | 01:16 |
| slidinghorn | netbookfound: if you're just lookign for IRC etc, you might eve be able to get away without a WM - just use stuff like irssi & lynx :) | 01:17 |
| netbookfound | yep, that's one I was thinking of | 01:17 |

| Thunder_Ruler | I'm having issues locking my computer, can anyone help me? | 02:25 |
| allizom | Thunder_Ruler: someone may, go on and explain your issue for it to be possible | 02:27 |
| Thunder_Ruler | The issue that i'm having is that I cannot lock my computer for whatever reason now, I think it may have something to do with me trying to mess around with LightDM, trying to customize the lockscreen on 16.04. Whenever I press to lock the computer, the screen turns off, on, off and then brings me right back to where I was before | 02:29 |
| Thunder_Ruler | the output of gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.desktop.lockdown does show: org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-lock-screen true | 02:31 |
| Thunder_Ruler | but I don't know how to change it | 02:31 |
| akem_ | Thunder_Ruler, with "dconf", you can navigate to that value and switch it on or off. | 02:34 |
| Thunder_Ruler | I'm a little confused how to use it inside of the terminal, can you explain? | 02:36 |
| akem_ | Thunder_Ruler, dconf has a GUI, just install "dconf" with apt, then type "dconf" in your term to launch it. | 02:37 |
| akem_ | Thunder_Ruler, err, type: dconf-editor | 02:38 |
| akem_ | This one is the GUI version. | 02:39 |
| Thunder_Ruler | got it, gonna try it out | 02:39 |
| allizom | Thunder_Ruler: "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-lock-screen false" should also work | 02:40 |
| Thunder_Ruler | Awesome this worked perfectly for me :D | 02:40 |
| * Thunder_Ruler does a happy jiggle | 02:41 | |
| Thunder_Ruler | i'll be sure to put the solution on AskUbuntu aswell | 02:41 |
| Thunder_Ruler | Now is dconf similar to how windows Control Panel in a way? I'm noticing some similarities. | 02:42 |

| dunnousernamefn | Hey, so I'm trying to burn an arch linux iso to a dvd. The wiki suggests using a program with a nautilus right-click menu integration thingy, but I have ubuntu-desktop installed over Ubuntu Server. How should I burn the ISO? | 03:28 |
| dunnousernamefn | Also, Disks says it's 2kb and I can't write to it using Disk Image Writer (it's a usb dvd drive if that means anything) | 03:28 |
| granttrec | dunnousernamefn, try startup disk creator, pretty ez | 03:29 |
| dunnousernamefn | I can't remember if I had problems with that in the past | 03:29 |
| dunnousernamefn | But I'm probably just imagining things | 03:29 |
| granttrec | although I'm a little bit dubious of you installing arch if this is a problem :$ | 03:30 |
| dunnousernamefn | Hmmm, it's only recognizing my external hard drive | 03:30 |
| snuggerthanyou | Scenario: You have 1 package from a meta-package already installed. If you install the meta package will it install the same package again or skip it? | 03:30 |
| dunnousernamefn | I'm testing it out before installing it on a small computer | 03:30 |
| dunnousernamefn | I wouldn't survive without a dual boot system :P | 03:30 |
| slidinghorn | dunnousernamefn: Arch isn't a live distro. | 03:30 |
| dunnousernamefn | I'm trying to make an install disk | 03:30 |
| dunnousernamefn | Installing it onto said external hard drive | 03:31 |
| slidinghorn | dunnousernamefn: that's the thing - if making an install disk is an issue, Arch isn't going to be a good idea | 03:31 |
| granttrec | same level of customization available on ubuntu dunnousernamefn | 03:32 |
| dunnousernamefn | Yes, but I'm trying to get to learn it before installing it on a small ARM board | 03:32 |
| dunnousernamefn | It only has 256MB of RAM | 03:32 |
| dunnousernamefn | I would totally go for ubuntu server but I'm not sure if it's capable | 03:33 |
| slidinghorn | dunnousernamefn: Then I'd suggest using a VM instead. Again, if you cannot create an install disk, you're not going to be able to properly install and configure Arch. | 03:33 |
| granttrec | there is ubuntu for arm eh dunnousernamefn | 03:33 |
| snuggerthanyou | there wouldnt be a noticeable difference in memory usage with no desktop | 03:33 |
| snuggerthanyou | and you'll have to deal with the abomination that is pacman | 03:33 |
| dunnousernamefn | oh god, I forgot about that | 03:33 |
| dunnousernamefn | Especially with ARM support | 03:34 |
| granttrec | https://www.ubuntu.com/download/server/arm | 03:34 |
| snuggerthanyou | I'd recommend fedora server arm or ubuntu server arm | 03:34 |
| snuggerthanyou | fedora'll probably use a tiny bit less memory | 03:34 |
| dunnousernamefn | I might just install ubuntu server x86 in a vm for now | 03:34 |
| dunnousernamefn | Oh, that's right; I can't get hardware emulation working | 03:35 |
| dunnousernamefn | That was my problem | 03:35 |
| dunnousernamefn | It said something about a cpuid bit | 03:35 |
| slidinghorn | dunnousernamefn: what application were you using for a VM? | 03:35 |
| dunnousernamefn | I was using qemu | 03:35 |
| snuggerthanyou | since it uses selinux and ubuntu uses apparmor | 03:35 |
| dunnousernamefn | I could try virtualbox I guess | 03:36 |
| granttrec | try gnome boxes | 03:36 |
| dunnousernamefn | gnome boxes? | 03:36 |
| dunnousernamefn | lemme look that up | 03:36 |
| granttrec | virtual box is a pain on ubuntu | 03:36 |
| snuggerthanyou | granttrec: No? | 03:36 |
| andfox | so how trustworthy are Snap packages? couldn't they be bundled with spyware? | 03:36 |
| snuggerthanyou | snap packages are verified by snap devs | 03:36 |
| snuggerthanyou | They're fine | 03:36 |
| dunnousernamefn | That still uses libvirt | 03:37 |
| andfox | all of them, snuggerthanyou ? | 03:37 |
| dunnousernamefn | Which is where the problem is | 03:37 |
| snuggerthanyou | andfox: Yes. Much more secure than, let's say, the AUR | 03:37 |
| granttrec | if your computer doesn't support virutalization then there is nothing to do | 03:37 |
| granttrec | vbox uses libvirt also | 03:37 |
| dunnousernamefn | virtualbox's headers once caused my computer to shut down upon creating a vm | 03:37 |
| granttrec | snuggerthanyou, its a pain since the whole uefi thing | 03:38 |
| dunnousernamefn | It should though | 03:38 |
| snuggerthanyou | That doesn't make any sense | 03:39 |
| dunnousernamefn | It's a newer computer | 03:39 |
| dunnousernamefn | Can I find out? | 03:39 |
| snuggerthanyou | UEFI or BIOS don't affect anything outside of the boot mode | 03:39 |
| granttrec | dunnousernamefn, what processor? | 03:40 |
| dunnousernamefn | It's a core i5 7th gen quad core mobile | 03:40 |
| dunnousernamefn | Maybe it's mobile being the problem | 03:40 |
| snuggerthanyou | dunnousernamefn: What do you want to do again? | 03:40 |
| snuggerthanyou | and that wouldn't be the problem | 03:40 |
| snuggerthanyou | You want to use virtualbox on ubuntu? | 03:40 |
| granttrec | snuggerthanyou, specifcally secure boot | 03:40 |
| dunnousernamefn | I'm installing it now | 03:40 |
| snuggerthanyou | granttrec: That has nothing to do with BIOS or UEFI | 03:41 |
| snuggerthanyou | It's an option in both | 03:41 |
| snuggerthanyou | Just turn it off if it's on | 03:41 |
| dunnousernamefn | I'm trying to install another linux distro in a vm | 03:41 |
| granttrec | i want to keep secure boot on tho | 03:41 |
| snuggerthanyou | Okay. whats the problem dunnousernamefn | 03:41 |
| dunnousernamefn | It runs really slow and it takes all of the cpu, which I suspect is due to a cpuid virtualization error message when I start qemu | 03:42 |
| snuggerthanyou | How much memory do you have? (RAM) | 03:42 |
| dunnousernamefn | 24G | 03:42 |
| snuggerthanyou | Have you installed KVM? | 03:42 |
| dunnousernamefn | I thought so... hmmm | 03:42 |
| snuggerthanyou | Try installing it and see if it says it's already installed | 03:43 |
| granttrec | installed if you download vbox etc | 03:43 |
| dunnousernamefn | qemu-kvm is latest | 03:43 |
| snuggerthanyou | Try sudo apt-get install kvm | 03:43 |
| snuggerthanyou | Are you using an LTS kernel? | 03:43 |
| dunnousernamefn | either 17.10 or 16.04 | 03:43 |
| dunnousernamefn | I think | 03:43 |
| snuggerthanyou | Do uname -a | 03:44 |
| snuggerthanyou | Whats the output | 03:44 |
| dunnousernamefn | Linux UBUNTU-2FRK9IS 4.13.0-37-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Wed Mar 7 14:13:23 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 03:44 |
| snuggerthanyou | Are you sure kvm is installed? Try installing standalone kvm and see if it says its already installed | 03:45 |
| dunnousernamefn | kvm isn't in apt, only kvmtool | 03:45 |
| dunnousernamefn | Note, selecting 'qemu-kvm' instead of 'kvm' | 03:45 |
| dunnousernamefn | And it is latest | 03:45 |
| granttrec | thats the package | 03:45 |
| snuggerthanyou | Hm | 03:46 |
| dunnousernamefn | vbox seems to work | 03:46 |
| dunnousernamefn | iirc it doesn't boot without kvm | 03:46 |
| snuggerthanyou | Did you tweak the settings in qemu? | 03:47 |
| granttrec | youre good to go then | 03:47 |
| snuggerthanyou | You might not have given the distro enough memory | 03:47 |
| granttrec | imo reinstall gnome boxes, its made to be pretty easy to install vms, if you can run vbox you can run this program | 03:47 |
| snuggerthanyou | dunnousernamefn: Did you tweak qemu's settings? | 03:49 |
| dunnousernamefn | does qemu have settings? | 03:50 |
| snuggerthanyou | I believe so | 03:50 |
| dunnousernamefn | And I think vbox is working now | 03:50 |
| snuggerthanyou | Alright then. Glad it works for you | 03:50 |
| dunnousernamefn | Thanks guys | 03:50 |
| snuggerthanyou | Things like virtualization software are known to be wonky | 03:50 |
| snuggerthanyou | So don't sweat it | 03:51 |

| protocol_hive | granttrec: x | 05:11 |
| granttrec | hmm idk then the instructions look pretty straigtforward, what are you stuck on? | 05:11 |
| granttrec | zaapiel, ls /dev/sda* | 05:13 |

| granttrec | zaapiel, df -h is more useful actutally | 05:14 |

| granttrec | thats part of the search Sircle | 05:27 |
| granttrec | also no sudo needed | 05:29 |
| protocol_hive | granttrec: i put the github download in my downloads, ran make.sh from there | 05:29 |

| SlyG07 | I'm new to the UNIX coding and have been trying to simply hash check my Ubuntu iso file, but I cannot seem to get the command line in the right directory. | 05:31 |
| SlyG07 | Can anyone help? | 05:31 |
| granttrec | what type of hash SlyG07 ? | 05:32 |
| cfhowlett | 1. unix ain't linux SlyG07 | 05:32 |
| SlyG07 | md5sums | 05:32 |
| cfhowlett | !md5sum | SlyG07 | 05:32 |
| ubottu | SlyG07: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 05:32 |
| SlyG07 | and sha256sums | 05:32 |
| SlyG07 | I think my directories are messed up though. | 05:33 |
| SlyG07 | I tried following this -- https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-ubuntu-on-windows#4 | 05:33 |

| SlyG07 | cfhowlett: I've only learned this terminology in the past 2 hours, so I apologize if I am incorrect. | 05:34 |
| cfhowlett | :) and it begins. no worries. | 05:34 |
| granttrec | follow the posted link and check back SlyG07 | 05:34 |
| SlyG07 | I did. I am stuck at the terminal part granttrec . | 05:35 |
| === luxio is now known as Zer0cool | ||
| SlyG07 | Navigating the directory is a little confusing... if I even set it up correctly. | 05:35 |
| cfhowlett | setting up the directory? what? have you already installed ubuntu? | 05:36 |
| SlyG07 | I think so... | 05:36 |
| granttrec | Sircle, thats what the script does | 05:36 |
| SlyG07 | Ubuntu = terminal? | 05:36 |
| Sircle | granttrec, what do you mean? | 05:36 |
| cfhowlett | !details | SlyG07, | 05:37 |
| ubottu | SlyG07,: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. | 05:37 |
| cfhowlett | SlyG07, I'm guessing you are using ubuntu on windows? | 05:37 |
| SlyG07 | cfhowlett: yes | 05:37 |
| cfhowlett | that ain't ubuntu | 05:37 |
| SlyG07 | Through the app, followed https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-ubuntu-on-windows#4 | 05:37 |
| cfhowlett | !wsl | SlyG07 | 05:38 |
| ubottu | SlyG07: Windows 10 has a feature called Windows Subsystem for Linux, which allows it to run Ubuntu (and other Linux distro) userspace programs without porting/recompliation. For discussion and support, see #ubuntu-on-windows or ##windows. For installation instructions, see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_guide | 05:38 |
| granttrec | Sircle, "color thing will show that the service is onn always" thats the point of the script i think | 05:38 |
| SlyG07 | ubottu: Thanks, I already enabled the Subsystem. | 05:39 |
| ubottu | SlyG07: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:39 |
| cfhowlett | SlyG07, if you merely want the terminal based experience, continue. if you want to experience the true might and power of this OS, install virtualbox on windows, create a virtual machine and install ubuntu in the VM. | 05:39 |
| Sircle | granttrec, I want to restart a service/ app if its not running | 05:40 |
| SlyG07 | cfhowlett: I have done that as well already, haha. That's up and running, but I wanted to try the basics of this md5sum and sha256sums check. | 05:40 |
| protocol_hive | granttrec: when i run mkfontdir ~/Downloads/cherry-font/out it returns opendir: not a directory. I dont think im understanding | 05:41 |
| cfhowlett | you run hash checks on the .iso. download the .iso. do NOT extract the files. | 05:41 |
| SlyG07 | Right, I know that's the typical order as you're confirming the .iso file is correct, but I have already downloaded everything into one file. | 05:42 |
| SlyG07 | folder* | 05:42 |
| cfhowlett | then you did not follow the instructions. | 05:42 |
| SlyG07 | Hmm... | 05:43 |
| cfhowlett | here's the deal. download and save the .iso. | 05:43 |
| cfhowlett | Run has checks against the .iso. but you said you already installed so ... | 05:43 |
| Sircle | granttrec, it greps for any process matching name. If theres color. the match will always be true | 05:43 |
| SlyG07 | Yeah, I already installed. I just wanted to practice the basics. Does having the iso installed affect the ability to run the checks? | 05:44 |
| SlyG07 | I am working backwards in this regard. | 05:44 |
| cfhowlett | yes. yes you are. | 05:45 |
| cfhowlett | we check the .iso BEFORE installation to ensure it's reliable. | 05:45 |
| granttrec | Sircle, grep is aliased to show colour and it is a process, so it will show up always, its not an extra line | 05:45 |
| SlyG07 | Right. I got to the point where I was lost at the Windows Ubuntu terminal trying to navigate the directory. Then, I just went ahead and installed the .iso file. Now I am just trying to see what I did wrong to troubleshoot and figure out whether the checks are still okay. | 05:47 |
| SlyG07 | ...for future file checks, I will at least have a process down. | 05:47 |
| SlyG07 | the* | 05:47 |
| zaapiel | dudes dd messed my usb thing up so now i dont see it with df -h | 05:47 |

| zaapiel | i used to see /dev/sdc1 | 05:48 |
| zaapiel | now i see nothing for it | 05:48 |
| cfhowlett | I'm not certain you even download a .iso for the windows based system. you might be better served in the ubuntu-windows channel | 05:48 |
| Sircle | granttrec, if I get shown the color always then this line will always be true if [ $? != 0 ] | 05:48 |

| hateball | louis__22: If this is a fresh install it's an odd choice in my opinion to go with 14.04 which goes EOL in a year. Rather than 16.04 or even 18.04 (which is out in a few days) | 08:28 |

| cluelessperson | How do you fix ubuntu's routing to handle multiple interfaces? | 09:59 |
| RyanRT | I have just finished installing the OS from the USB onto my Macbook and after the install process and upon reboot I am now seeing the install screen again rather then it booting to the od | 09:59 |
| RyanRT | is it as simple as that I have not removed the thumbstick from the macbook before i rebooted | 10:00 |
| cluelessperson | RyanRT: possibly, try it | 10:01 |
| BluesKaj | cluelessperson, what kind of multiple interfaces, more detail is in order | 10:01 |
| RyanRT | ok so simply power off the laptop remove the thumbdrive and power her back up | 10:01 |
| cluelessperson | BluesKaj: I'm connected to my own network, WIFI, and Ethernet. 192.168.2.*, and 192.168.0.*, I cannot ping on the non-default route | 10:01 |
| cluelessperson | RyanRT: sure, try it. :P | 10:01 |
| RyanRT | why not right here we go sitting here with two laptops on my lap lol | 10:02 |
| BluesKaj | what's your "non default route", cluelessperson ? This cryptic speak isn't getting us anywhere, enough with the techno babble | 10:04 |
| cluelessperson | default via 192.168.0.1 dev enp0s25 proto static metric 100 | 10:04 |
| cluelessperson | ping -I wlp4s0 192.168.0.1 fails | 10:04 |
| cluelessperson | wlp4s0 is 192.168.2.2 subnet | 10:05 |
| RyanRT | Well that was easy, that was a rather foolish question in hindsight lol, I was just hesitant cause I had not held down the Control/alt key on this bloody macbook which brings it to the boot from drive menu | 10:05 |
| RyanRT | but it must just default to that when theres a drive connected to the usb port | 10:06 |
| BluesKaj | cluelessperson, looks like your gateway and ethernet, check /etc/resolv,conf | 10:06 |
| cluelessperson | BluesKaj: huh? | 10:06 |
| RyanRT | Thank you kindly for your assistance cluelessperson | 10:06 |

| cluelessperson | it's a routing issue | 10:13 |

| BluesKaj | sorry for wasting your time, cluelessperson , I'm not here to trade insults | 10:16 |
| cluelessperson | BluesKaj: No, you made a nonsensical suggestion, then were sarcastic when I said that it was nonsensical, effectively wasting my time | 10:16 |

| JimBuntu | To the point, it sounds like you need to manually add a route to your tables, specifically that 192.168.x.x should go over the correct interface | 10:18 |
| cluelessperson | JimBuntu: the issue is that this is a highly mobile machine, those routes and interfaces will changes often | 10:18 |
| JimBuntu | You provided your IPs, but I don't remember seeing your netmask. Could the netmask be too wide? | 10:19 |
| cluelessperson | JimBuntu: it's /24 per | 10:19 |
| JimBuntu | Ok, shouldn't be the netmask then. I don't see it, may have missed it, did you post a pastebin of your routing config? i.e. route -n | 10:20 |
| JimBuntu | Wait, were you pinging via a specific device that is NOT part of the network you were pinging? | 10:23 |
| foo357 | Hello, I'm getting a very slow transfer speed when scp'ing data from host "B" to "A" . In the other direction (data from A to B) the speed is normal. (All transfers are initiated on host A). I've done a internet speed test on host "B" and the results are ok. | 10:44 |
| foo357 | What I'm wondering is if there are some more checks I can do on host "B" to determine if anything is causing trouble, otherwise I guess the issue should lie in the network between the hosts. | 10:45 |
| JimBuntu | foo357, You say you have done internet speed tests on B, have you performed those speed tests using another server in the same area as A or only the 'fastest and closest possible" as most speedtests do by default? | 10:46 |
| === alb3rt is now known as Guest63027 | ||
| foo357 | JimBuntu: Yes, I've done a couple internet speed tests, selecting a different servers. | 11:04 |
| foo357 | JimBuntu: Network speeds to the internet is fine, the only thing I can see is not ok is network speed B --> A (the other direction is ok, A --> B) | 11:06 |

| tsglove | Guys, I dd copied my 250gb ssd to a new 1tb ssd. The original 250 had xubuntu installed with full disk LUKS encryption. Now, the 1tb boots as it should, yet I have failed to "expand" the size. I was able to expand the partition where the luks crypt resides, yet I was unable to expand the luks crypt itself once un-encrypted. | 11:28 |
| tsglove | Any thoughts? I am trying not to have to re-install the entire OS on this new 1tb ssd. | 11:28 |
| pranav | I fixed it. looks like when i pasted some random command from stackoverflow. it deleted my symlink /usr/bin/python3 | 11:30 |
| pranav | recreated it to point to correct python3.5 | 11:30 |
| pranav | now able to run all commanda again. thanks guys.. my bad | 11:30 |

| netochka | I want to reduce my keyboard backlite. I remember doing it once on terminal. and i could set it from 1 to 4 (or 3) | 12:24 |

| netochka | hateball. It seems that it doesn't change anything :/ | 12:26 |
| hateball | netochka: are you on wayland? | 12:27 |
| netochka | wayland? is that a distro? | 12:27 |
| hateball | I dont know if xset works if you do | 12:27 |
| saurabh | display server | 12:28 |
| hateball | netochka: no, a display server | 12:28 |
| netochka | i tried sxet led off and it definitely doesn't effect anything | 12:28 |
| hateball | iirc 17.10 + gnome is wayland by default? | 12:28 |
| saurabh | yup | 12:28 |
| * hateball runs kubuntu + nvidia blob so wayland is out of the question | 12:28 | |

| netochka | i'm using ubuntu 16.04 lts on asus zenbook. donno if that answers your q | 12:29 |
| hateball | yeah that should not be running wayland by default | 12:29 |

| maunix | Hi All. I messup with upgrading my linux from 14.04 to 17.10... i did that by editing the sources.list, doing and apt-get update and then and apt-get upgrade. The problem is that now I have a lot of missing files or files that wont get installed because of those missing files. Googling gave me a lot of answers but none worked. The most significant problem is that i have errors of ldconfig not found and | 12:49 |
| maunix | locales broken. The paths are OK. Any hints? | 12:49 |
| maunix | may be installing that manually or something like that but using aptitude or apt-get or dpkg doesnt work at all. | 12:49 |
| maunix | I have it installed on a 32-bit netbook , using the i386 repositories. | 12:50 |
| akik | maunix: i don't think you upgrade ubuntu that way. where did you find that guidance? | 12:50 |
| slidinghorn | maunix: that's definitely not the recommended upgrade path...unfortunately I personally don't have any clue how to fix something like that. Does apt -f install do anything helpful? | 12:50 |
| EriC^^ | maunix: reinstall time | 12:50 |
| * slidinghorn agrees with EriC^^ | 12:51 | |
| maunix | EriC^^: i should get off my home folder then | 12:51 |
| maunix | i mean copy it to a pendrive. | 12:52 |
| EriC^^ | maunix: yeah, maybe copy the list of installed packages too | 12:52 |

| CheetahPixie | i have an actual question | 13:14 |
| CheetahPixie | the compression function in ubuntu caches on the local partition | 13:14 |
| CheetahPixie | is there any way i can make it cache elsewhere, like at the target? | 13:14 |
| CheetahPixie | this is preventing many hundred gigabytes of files from being compressed | 13:14 |
| blackflow | CheetahPixie: compression function? Which one? | 13:17 |
| CheetahPixie | blackflow: in the right click menu | 13:18 |
| blackflow | CheetahPixie: oh the file manager. Well I guess it's simplified for frequent use case. If you need advanced compression functionality, you can always descend to the command line and use zip, or tar. | 13:19 |
| CheetahPixie | I want to use 7zip to compress hard disk images | 13:19 |
| CheetahPixie | thought it was something in 7zip caching on / | 13:20 |
| CheetahPixie | not sure; dumping another image atm | 13:20 |
| hollusion | leftyfb, it was exactly what you thought | 13:21 |

| pragmaticenigma | chriys, are you able to run other PHP scripts in the terminal? | 13:26 |
| iamvain | Hi, I'm trying to automate the install if ubuntu server 16.04, so far I have succeeded, but I can't find the `preseed` option that would let me stop the installer from trying to update the system | 13:27 |
| chriys | yeah | 13:27 |
| pragmaticenigma | chriys, if you are able to run other PHP scripts with out any issue. Then your issue is the PHP script which we cannot support. You will need to contact the author of that PHP script for help | 13:28 |
| chriys | ok thanks | 13:29 |
| blackflow | chriys: I've seen that a lot. PHP using setlocale() for a specific locale, you just need to find out what it was and enable it with dpkg-reconfigure. | 13:29 |

| slidinghorn | !latest | CoolerZ | 14:22 |
| ubottu | CoolerZ: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 14:22 |
| Bu4nka | Heu guys any idea why i cant open the software centre? | 14:23 |
| Humatiel | fairuz: normally that is caused by non-standard repositories being enabled in /etc/apt/sources.list | 14:23 |
| CoolerZ | slidinghorn, version 5 is pretty fricking old | 14:24 |
| fairuz | Humatiel That is correct. I'm using DigitalOcean, so they have their own mirror in sources.list | 14:24 |
| CoolerZ | how do i get the latest? | 14:24 |
| slidinghorn | CoolerZ: well you have the version that came with an Ubuntu LTS that came out 4 years ago, so that's probably to be expected. There's the possibility of upgrading to 16.04 to see if its version is more up-to-speed for you, or, you could build it from source, however, that is likely to cause problems. | 14:25 |
| pragmaticenigma | CoolerZ, Updating to a more recent version Ubuntu is one way to get a more updated version of GCC. Also, is there something in particular about the newer release of gcc that your project requires? | 14:27 |

| pragmaticenigma | CoolerZ, This wasn't your question? [16:21] <CoolerZ> how do i update to the latest gcc? | 14:30 |
| geirha | fairuz: so you have two of the packages from some microsoft repo, but the dev one is only from the regular repos | 14:30 |
| slidinghorn | CoolerZ: well, responding to one of the multiple people asking what you need from a newer gcc version would be helpful - also Debian is likely to be even further behind | 14:30 |
| CoolerZ | slidinghorn, no | 14:31 |
| pragmaticenigma | CoolerZ, We are asking what you are looking for in the updated version, because there is chance the package maintainers may have backported a bug fix, security patch, or feature | 14:31 |
| Bu4nka | Heu guys any idea why i cant open the software centre? its been happening for the last few days.. | 14:32 |
| hollusion | for a windows client connecting to a samba share on ubuntu it shouldnt be an issue that the data is stored on a ext4 partition, right? | 14:32 |
| leftyfb | Bu4nka: what version of ubuntu? What desktop environment? (default, Unity?) | 14:32 |
| leftyfb | hollusion: correc | 14:32 |
| leftyfb | hollusion: correct | 14:32 |
| hollusion | thank you | 14:33 |
| pragmaticenigma | CoolerZ, if we know what you are specifically looking for, we can help. Otherwise, we are limited to supporting only the packages that are provided in the package repositories. | 14:33 |
| Bu4nka | leftyfb: ubuntu 16.04 LTS default environment | 14:33 |
| CoolerZ | pragmaticenigma, i am looking for printf_s | 14:33 |
| fairuz | geirha oh ok. Hmm | 14:35 |
| geirha | fairuz: if you downgrade the two packages, you'd be able to install that dev package, but there may be a reason the microsoft repo doesn't have it. Perhaps it simply includes the header files with the "regular" package | 14:36 |
| leftyfb | Bu4nka: what happens when you run "gnome-software" from the command line? | 14:36 |
| pragmaticenigma | CoolerZ, I cannot find any documentation on that function. The only item that shows up in my search is: The gcc compiler doesn't support those optional "safe" functions, you'll need to use the normal standard functions like printf(). I don't know if gcc ever intends on supporting those optional functions, unless actually required by a future standard. | 14:36 |
| pragmaticenigma | CoolerZ, according to the documentation these are the only supported print function: https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Formatted-Output-Functions.html | 14:38 |

| TheGrumpyScot | Q. NFS mount which mounted successfully cannot be unmounted, reports "/path/to/mountpoint" was not found in /proc/mounts ... OS is 12.04.5 - How do I umount said mount point ? | 15:12 |
| pragmaticenigma | TheGrumpyScot, where is the device mounted to? Is there any application current accessing a file within the mounted folder | 15:13 |
| TheGrumpyScot | pragmaticenigma: No apps using said mount point or files within it - and it's mounted into a blank folder created in my ~ | 15:14 |
| pragmaticenigma | TheGrumpyScot, can you explain "blank" folder.. Do you mean empty directory? | 15:15 |
| slidinghorn | Buanka: do you have any PPAs enabled? | 15:15 |
| TheGrumpyScot | pragmaticenigma: yes blank folder / empty directory | 15:15 |
| Buanka | slidinghorn: yes | 15:16 |
| pragmaticenigma | TheGrumpyScot, thanks for clarifying | 15:16 |
| slidinghorn | Buanka: please pastebin your sources.list | 15:16 |
| Buanka | slidinghorn: how do i find it? | 15:17 |
| slidinghorn | Buanka: oh, sorry: cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit | 15:17 |

| Buanka | slidinghorn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/KtWd2fQVj2/ | 15:20 |
| slidinghorn | Buanka: one thing I'm seeing off the bat is that you have a repository from a different release enabled, which *probably* isn't the issue, but isn't a good thing. | 15:23 |

| pragmaticenigma | TheGrumpyScot, And "sudo umount /home/alan/mp" does not unmount the folder? | 15:27 |
| === semeion is now known as mnemonic | ||
| TheGrumpyScot | pragmaticenigma: no, running umount via sudo or as root produces exactly the same response; ie not found in /proc/mounts | 15:28 |
| TheGrumpyScot | pragmaticenigma: and nothing in /etc/fstab is referencing wither the share or the new mount point - this is simply me testing the share in my home space prior to running on production boxes | 15:29 |
| Buanka | slidinghorn: which ppa? | 15:29 |
| pragmaticenigma | TheGrumpyScot, fstab is only for permanent mounts for booting. /etc/mtab is where user mounts exist... I think I found a option, is this shared folder samba? | 15:30 |
| slidinghorn | Buanka: the grive-tools ppa (the last one listed in your sources.list you posted) | 15:30 |
| TheGrumpyScot | pragmaticenigma: no, it's ans nfs mount, not samba - so listed in /etc/exports on the remote (.23) | 15:31 |
| Buanka | slidinghorn: checked it off the list, updated cache but still a no go | 15:33 |
| topi` | is there an easy way to upgrade from Trusty to Utopic? I g want to upgrade to newest LTS, but probably can't do it without increments? | 15:33 |
| pragmaticenigma | TheGrumpyScot, by any chance is the remote host of the share been powered down or disconnected from the network? | 15:33 |
| topi` | would it be possible to upgrade from trusty LTS to xenial LTS? | 15:34 |
| nacc | topi`: yes | 15:34 |
| TheGrumpyScot | pragmaticenigma: Nope, the share was created on the remote just prior to mounting locally, both servers have not lost power or connectivity | 15:34 |
| slidinghorn | Buanka: This is an aside to the issue we're dealing with, but I would suggest fully uninstalling grive-tools and instead using gnome-control-center and gnome-online-accounts for your Google Drive account (https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/08/use-google-drive-ubuntu-16-04-linux-desktops) | 15:34 |
| topi` | nacc: is there a CLI tool for doing these upgrades? | 15:35 |
| slidinghorn | Buanka: was there anything in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory? | 15:35 |

| bray90820_ | How is the support for appls magic mouse | 15:41 |
| pragmaticenigma | bray90820_, As long as the device adheres to industry standards, it will behave like a mouse. Some features of the mouse may require additional configuration to enable. In short, it should just work | 15:43 |
| bray90820_ | I know the mouse will work but how is the multi touch support | 15:43 |
| pragmaticenigma | bray90820_, did you read my entire message? | 15:44 |
| tgm4883 | This is the wrong forum to solicit hardware recommendations | 15:44 |
| bray90820_ | Yes I did you said may require I was wondering how it was out of the box | 15:45 |
| krytarik | That's what the Live images are for - to test things. | 15:46 |
| pragmaticenigma | bray90820_, out of the box, the mouse will work like a mouse... additional features may require configuration to enable them. The key word is may... there is no way for us to know with certainty what the outcome will be | 15:47 |
| bray90820_ | If someon owns one they can | 15:47 |
| pragmaticenigma | bray90820_, that falls in the scope of hardware recommendations, which this is not the channel for that | 15:48 |
| bray90820_ | What is the channel for that then | 15:48 |
| pragmaticenigma | bray90820_, Support of the Ubuntu Operating system. You can take your question to /join #ubuntu-offtopic and you may find an answer there | 15:49 |
| bray90820_ | Thanks | 15:50 |
| krytarik | bray90820_: More like ##hardware - but I slightly disagree with that notion, because it's also distro-dependent. | 15:50 |

| adalbert | chateau migraine? | 15:56 |
| pragmaticenigma | bray90820_, A way to think of this channel is if you had the mouse and it wasn't work, we could help get it up and running. Without having the mouse, we can't troubleshoot and cannot predict if your system will have any issues. Sometimes a device will work out of the box right away for one person, and not work for another. There are too many potential outcomes which is why we stick to fixing after the fact. | 15:56 |

| Anthaas | ducasse: Its an image viewing tool. | 16:42 |
| Anthaas | It loads a folder of images into a slideshow. | 16:43 |
| ducasse | i know, but then it requires access to your x session | 16:43 |
| Anthaas | Correct. | 16:44 |
| Anthaas | I've just read an error I missed - it would appear that x session isnt running by the time the command is run | 16:44 |
| ducasse | then you should run it from ~/.xsessionrc, not .profile | 16:45 |
| Anthaas | ahhhh | 16:45 |
| Anthaas | ducasse: Is that a file I can just create, and start adding commands to, or is there some mandatory predefined structure to it? | 16:47 |
| ducasse | Anthaas: just create it | 16:48 |
| Anthaas | ducasse: Ok, I did that, moved the commands in there, and they weren't run. | 16:49 |
| Anthaas | Neither of them. | 16:49 |
| Anthaas | (after rebooting) | 16:49 |
| ducasse | it definitely should work, which release is this? | 16:51 |

| === al2o3-cr is now known as fe203 | ||
| pragmaticenigma | Sven_vB, the words spoken no longer sync with the video in the media file? | 17:39 |
| Sven_vB | pragmaticenigma, exactly. | 17:39 |
| pragmaticenigma | Sven_vB, I'm not sure if renicing a process would fix that... as it could be the radio chip that introduces that latency | 17:40 |
| Sven_vB | pragmaticenigma, it resets when I switch the sound sink mode to "off" and then "a2dp" (or similar) again, but every few minutes there's a gap | 17:40 |
| pragmaticenigma | Sven_vB, do you have any other BT devices paired with the computer? | 17:40 |
| Sven_vB | nope | 17:40 |
| Sven_vB | oh I do, but they're not connected | 17:41 |
| pragmaticenigma | Sven_vB, maybe try removing those device pairings? If the gap occurs at a regular interval, I'd suspect that the BT controller is searching for the other devices and it has mode switch the radio from a2dp and back to do the search | 17:42 |

| MWM | I just did a fresh install of Budgie 17.10 and I cant seem to start a web browser except with "sudo firefox" | 17:44 |
| Sven_vB | I'll have to read up on how that scanning and handshake works. I'm still optimistic about the priority though, since I can provoke audio gaps by running apt. | 17:44 |
| pragmaticenigma | MWM, did you run a command simialr to "sudo chmod root" recently? | 17:44 |
| pragmaticenigma | Sven_vB, I did find this... haven't read all the way through but might be promising | 17:45 |
| pragmaticenigma | Sven_vB, https://askubuntu.com/a/171165 | 17:45 |
| MWM | I havent done anything like that. Fresh install of the whole OS and a fresh install of Firefox. Built in browser was acting up also... thats why I installed firefox | 17:45 |
| Sven_vB | pragmaticenigma, thanks! | 17:45 |
| MWM | I would just try to dig around an chown the firefox directory but I am not sure if that would mess something else up | 17:46 |
| pragmaticenigma | MWM, Where did you get your Ubuntu disk image for installation? Was it from the official Ubuntu site ubuntu.com? | 17:46 |
| pragmaticenigma | MWM, what does "whereis firefox" report? | 17:47 |
| MWM | https://ubuntubudgie.org/downloads <--not exactly ubuntu.com but still the official source I believe | 17:47 |
| oerheks | MWM, just remove the .mozilla folder, that would reset | 17:47 |
| MWM | whereis firefox returns "/usr/bin/firefox /usr/lib/firefox /etc/firefox" and another entry for the manpage | 17:49 |
| pragmaticenigma | MWM, try going to your home folder and moving the folder ".mozilla" to ".mozilla.backup" and see if firefox runs | 17:49 |
| pragmaticenigma | MWM, "mv .mozilla .mozilla.backup" | 17:50 |
| MWM | same issue after mv .mozilla | 17:50 |
| MWM | Let me be more clear. When I run firefox from the GUI it *does* open but with only a black screen | 17:51 |
| MWM | when I use "sude firefox" the browser works normally | 17:51 |
| MWM | * err sudo ...not sude :D | 17:52 |
| Sven_vB | pragmaticenigma, … however I couldn't find a solution there. the script that switches the audio mode would just automate the clicking, but I'd still have to pause every few minutes. that's especially bad because the switch to off has the same delay as audio playback, and then my headphones need about 2 seconds to switch from off to a2dp again. | 17:52 |
| brainwash | MWM: what output does firefox give you when started from a terminal window? | 17:53 |
| Sven_vB | might there be a way to configure bluetooth audio to never accumulate delays, but instead just discard fragments that couldn't be transmitted quickly enough? | 17:54 |
| MWM | there is no output. The web broswer just opens | 17:55 |
| Sven_vB | MWM, have you tried running firefox with a different $HOME directory, and thus a new clean profile? | 17:56 |
| MWM | do you mean from a differen user? The best I can do there is logout and log back in. I am the only user on this rig | 17:57 |
| crimson_king | MWM, about:profiles | 17:59 |
| pragmaticenigma | MWM, you can create a new user to test with | 18:00 |
| MWM | Well gents, I restarted the machine to see if that would make a difference and now my RDP client is being an ass. I will have to check back with you later. | 18:01 |
| MWM | Atleast I can fix the network issue, if not as quick as I would like. Thanks for the help :D | 18:01 |
| Sven_vB | in htop there are lots of vlc processes that ps can't see? e.g. there's 24372 in the PID column but "ps --no-header u 24372" gives no output and exit status 1 | 18:02 |

| realies | leftyfb, oh boi :) | 18:22 |
| lotuspsychje | !java | realies | 18:22 |
| ubottu | realies: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 18:22 |
| leftyfb | realies: you're trying to install using oracle-java8-installer ? | 18:22 |
| realies | wonder why loading the url in the browser downloads it then | 18:22 |
| realies | yes | 18:22 |
| pragmaticenigma | realies, the first URL that is used no longer works and redirects... those redirects land at a page informing a person that you have a liscense to download from that location | 18:25 |

It landed me here http://download.oracle.com/errors/download-fail-1505220.html | 18:27 |
| realies | sure, although upon my first attempt, copying that url to the browser would start the download | 18:28 |

| lotuspsychje | realies: why dont you download java8 from the ubuntu repos exactly>? | 18:28 |
| realies | it does not respond assuming because it has been used already | 18:28 |
| realies | lotuspsychje, because oracle java is not as the java from the repo | 18:28 |
| scenick_ | Hello All, I wonder whethere anyone succeeded installing Ubuntu on Acer Aspire 14. I did. It was pain. I used refind. And possibly the target solution was placing shims and certs to Microsoft folder on mmcblk0p1 partition under EFI/Microsoft folder. Just to let You know. Regards | 18:29 |
| Vic2 | In which package is dig for 16.04? | 18:30 |

| lotuspsychje | realies: contact the maintainer of the oracle repo perhaps? | 18:31 |
| Sven_vB | maybe a screenshot helps: what are those numbers in the PID column? if they're PIDs, why can't ps see them? https://abload.de/img/htop-vlc-pids-mvu13.jpeg | 18:31 |
| pragmaticenigma | Sven_vB, not sure why all those processes are started with VLC... seems like something might be wrong with VLC | 18:33 |
| Sven_vB | pragmaticenigma, so if those are processes, why can't I see them in ps? | 18:34 |
| adalbert | Sven_vB: because they are child processes. | 18:34 |

| pragmaticenigma | realies, Oracle is employing a requirement that you accept their liscense agreement when downloading. The URL is auto generated after you accept. You have a short amount of time between getting that URL and downloading the file. Oracle intends for you to accept and download the JDK from their website using a web browser. We cannot provide any further help as we can only support packaged software from Ubuntu's | 18:39 |
| pragmaticenigma | software repos. For further help, you will need to reach out to the Java community | 18:39 |

| Scenick | Hello, I would like to ask question. I'm unsure where should be the better place than here. I bought Acer Aspire ES 14. Default installation were Windows. I decided to put Linux on that machine. However default install of Linux Ubuntu 18.04 failed. Wrote: cannot find bootable device. So I experimented a bit and found that refind & possibly putting shmi & certs in first partition of mmc brought it to booting. Is that possible? | 18:43 |
| Sven_vB | nacc, the numbers from htop now show up in the LWP column. | 18:44 |
| EriC^^ | Scenick: is it a hybrid tablet kind of laptop? | 18:44 |
| Sven_vB | nacc, so are they lightweight processes? | 18:45 |

| leftyfb | Scenick: also, just disable secureboot/EFI | 18:46 |
| Scenick | It's kind of new notebook. EFI with default Secure Boot on. I turned SB off. ... I'm asking because I'm not sure about what solved the problem. It just started to boot eventually. | 18:46 |
| akik | Scenick: for some acer laptops you need to add grubx64.efi or shimx64.efi as a allowed boot file in uefi | 18:46 |
| Scenick | Default it didn't boot when placed in the default ubuntu installation folder. | 18:47 |
| Scenick | I think EFI/linux or EFI/ubuntu didn't work. Possibly it had to be placed in EFI/Microsoft | 18:47 |
| Scenick | Would be anyone interested in examining the partition? | 18:47 |
| akik | Scenick: each distro creates its own directory, like EFI\ubuntu, EFI\fedora, EFI\opensuse | 18:48 |
| Sven_vB | nacc, seems like they are. thanks! | 18:48 |
| EriC^^ | Scenick: some pc's are like that, they're hardwired to boot only microsoft efi files in those paths | 18:48 |

| Draconiator | but it works like I want it to so I'm not complaining hell I don't game on here heh. | 20:32 |
| tomreyn | Draconiator: read this https://askubuntu.com/questions/443761/how-is-trim-enabled | 20:33 |
| new0 | tomreyn, hey, nice to see you. btw can i finally remove those comments deb from source.list? | 20:33 |
| tomreyn | new0: if your system works fine now, sure. | 20:34 |
| tomreyn | i mean if apt runs without reporting warnings or errors | 20:34 |
| new0 | tomreyn, ok. what is the cmd to find the path of source.list (keep forgetting it) | 20:34 |
| new0 | tomreyn, at the moment i see no warning/errors | 20:34 |
| tomreyn | new0: the main sources.list file is at /etc/apt/sources.list | 20:34 |
| new0 | tomreyn, right. but let's just say i want to look for filename. what would be the command/ | 20:35 |
| new0 | ? | 20:35 |
| tomreyn | new0: when you add other (non standard) repositories you should place a separate file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ though | 20:35 |
| tomreyn | "ls /etc/apt" lists the contents of this directory | 20:36 |
| tomreyn | "find /etc -iname 'sources.list'" would find the file | 20:36 |
| new0 | tomreyn, i mean like locate source.list or find source.list etc.. | 20:36 |
| new0 | tomreyn, tnx | 20:36 |
| Draconiator | for some reason...i think "cronjob" sounds like something I don't wanna say lol | 20:36 |
| Sven_vB | nevermind, trusty's rlwrap has almost that feature by default | 20:37 |
| tomreyn | new0: or just "locate sources.list" ;) | 20:37 |
| tomreyn | new0: the locate command doesn't actually run a live searhc on the file system (and is thus much faster) but regularly updates a database of what's on your file system. | 20:38 |
| === Richard is now known as Guest17310 | ||

| tomreyn | new0: so you get a quick lookup (very convenient) but sometimes outdated info. | 20:38 |
| new0 | tomreyn, ok. and find command does it slower? | 20:39 |

| nbusrone | Does anyone can guide how to delete ubuntu OS without interfere with another ubuntu OS such as 12.04 remove but 14.04 is above.Grub , swap partition are share together. | 20:41 |
| oerheks | nbusrone, use a live iso, but determin first which partitions are used by 14.04 | 20:42 |
| oerheks | boot 12.04 and see which belong to that, and the rest would be 14.04, i guess | 20:42 |
| pragmaticenigma | nbusrone, when you install a new OS to the partition being decommishind, if it is Linux, it will auto find the partitions and update grub automatically | 20:43 |

| mrleaW | Hi geeks, any idea how to install CGI:IRC on Ubuntu 16.04. LTS ? | 20:45 |
| IntelCore | ty | 20:45 |
| oerheks | it is not in our repos, or i do not find it, see http://cgiirc.org/docs/install.php | 20:46 |
| oerheks | mrleaW ^^ | 20:47 |
| mrleaW | yes | 20:47 |
| mrleaW | I see that link , from there i have dowloaded the website cgi script :) | 20:47 |
| nbusrone | oerheks , pragmaticenigma : what I amd trying to achieve is , deleting 12.04 , retain 14.04 installing upcoming 16.04 or 18.04 into 12.04 free space partition .The first step , on live CD , just format the partition using Gparted then installed ? as simple as it ? Do I need to set a swap ? I saw some article where 16.04 doesn't need swap . | 20:47 |
| pragmaticenigma | nbusrone, 16.04 can still use a designated swap partition if one is defined. | 20:48 |
| mrleaW | All i need is how to load this cgi script after editing config files and moving them to /var/www/html path (i have installed apache2) | 20:48 |
| kostkon | nbusrone, you might have read that 17.10 uses a swap file instead of a partition, as does 18.04 | 20:49 |
| === fred_ is now known as Guest61241 | ||
| pragmaticenigma | nbusrone, you can use the partition tool in the installer to delete the existin 12.04 partition and install to that partition. when it goes to detect boot loaders, it will see one is already installed and trigger the update for 14.04 and which ever version you choose to install. and will remove the older non-existant 12.04 | 20:49 |
| nbusrone | pragmaticenigma : If I doesn't wanted to assgin a swap ? which memory will it use ? | 20:49 |
| pragmaticenigma | nbusrone, 16.04 still uses swap... it just uses a swap file instead of a partition... if you already have a partition, I would continue to use that | 20:50 |
| kostkon | nbusrone, your ram? how much do you have | 20:50 |
| pragmaticenigma | kostkon, that's not quite correct. Ubuntu still uses swap, it just uses a swap file instead of a swap partition | 20:51 |
| nbusrone | pragmaticenigma : Thank I'll try out tomorrow , but the partition is share with 14.04 . I can't create more partition since using MBR rather than GPT. | 20:51 |
| oerheks | pragmaticenigma, wrong, 16.04 uses a swap partition | 20:51 |
| pragmaticenigma | oerheks, it can use both | 20:52 |
| pragmaticenigma | but not at the same time | 20:52 |
| kostkon | pragmaticenigma, yeah i'm just answering his hypothetical question | 20:52 |
| nbusrone | kostkon : 8GB , I plan to upgrade but on hold since the ram price hike like double the price.Not knowing when i'll go down. | 20:52 |

| new0 | hey, when i am accessing a share folder on Ubuntu from win7 why it's allow me to create new folder/files? also why it give me free access without prompting me for user&pass? | 21:01 |
| adalbert | new0: are the ubuntu and win7 on the same system ? Is it multi boot with shared folder or ... ? | 21:04 |
| new0 | adalbert, 2 machines | 21:04 |
| adalbert | new0: ok. | 21:04 |
| new0 | adalbert, same workgroup | 21:04 |
| adalbert | new0: same user account too ? | 21:05 |
| mrleaW | Any suggestion about how to install CGI:IRC on my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS ? Thanks ! :) | 21:05 |
| new0 | adalbert, funny thing is: when i am where the share folder is defined by nano /etc/samba/smb.conf it's accessable but not changeble which is good. but when i set it via samba server configuration GUI it's also allow me to create/delete files/folder from the share folder of ubuntu on win7 machine | 21:06 |
| new0 | adalbert, not same user account | 21:06 |
| new0 | adalbert, not at all | 21:07 |
| adalbert | new0: so you got samba running on the ubuntu ? Maybe you're sharing a public folder with all permissions for anynomous ? Check samba conf ? | 21:07 |
| new0 | adalbert, what should i check? | 21:07 |
| adalbert | smb.conf | 21:08 |
| adalbert | samba's configuration file, I've no idea where that is tho :) | 21:08 |
| new0 | adalbert, samba running on ubuntu = yes; sharing music folder not with all permission but we should probably check it out; i will check conf, but what do i looking for? | 21:08 |
| new0 | adalbert, mmmm btw if i have smb.conf in home dir should it matter? is it override /etc/samba/smb.conf ? | 21:09 |
| adalbert | new0: in the samba configuration there are directives for the path's you are sharing through samba, you should check those directives. | 21:10 |
| adalbert | new0: i don't think smb.conf in home dir will work. | 21:10 |
| GuiToris | hello, how can I change power management settings in command line? | 21:10 |
| new0 | adalbert, smb.conf in home dir will not work? GREATE! solve one problem. but the share folder of Music in home dir i did share it via GUI of Samba Server Configuration and not via directive on /etc/samba/smb.conf ! should it matter? | 21:12 |
| adalbert | new0: which GUI? | 21:12 |
| new0 | Samba Server Configuration adalbert | 21:12 |
| adalbert | new0: i'll have a look | 21:13 |
| new0 | adalbert, ok | 21:13 |
| adalbert | new0: you got a link for that ? | 21:13 |
| IntelCore | is there a room for 16.04 server? | 21:14 |
| kostkon | IntelCore, just #ubuntu-server | 21:15 |

| === hph^ is now known as nhh^ | ||
| new0 | adalbert, i can try to look for a link | 21:15 |
| new0 | tomreyn, kostkon, wow, for some reason my system is really fast now considering my low hardware. perhaps it's because it's running on memory at this time and not swap file | 21:17 |
| new0 | adalbert, something like that? https://www.google.co.il/search?q=samba+server+configuration+tool+1.2.63&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi67ZjtncLaAhXEZ1AKHU-ODZ8Q_AUICygC&biw=1366&bih=650&dpr=1 | 21:17 |
| kostkon | new0, not quite sure about that but good to hear :) | 21:17 |
| new0 | kostkon, meaning it was very slow last time! and i am not sure if it's because my system were running for month without power off | 21:18 |
| adalbert | new0: in case you want to drop the GUI, here's a usefull video for configuration of samba. | 21:18 |
| adalbert | https://www.google.be/search?q=samba+server+configuration&oq=samba+server+configuration&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.3707j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#kpvalbx=1 | 21:18 |
| kostkon | new0, yep could be | 21:19 |
| new0 | adalbert, mmm so perhaps because i mix setting of folder sharing via GUI and directive.. the GUI does not do it best? | 21:20 |
| adalbert | new0: here's a link with other GUI's you can try ... https://www.samba.org/samba/GUI/ | 21:20 |
| new0 | adalbert, the Music folder does the sharing setting via gui while all other via directive. but i still don't get user and pass prompt | 21:20 |
| adalbert | new0: even after a reboot of the windows system ? fresh login ? no password ? | 21:21 |
| oerheks | use one authentication system, not 2 | 21:22 |
| oerheks | or settings | 21:22 |
| oerheks | !info swat | 21:23 |
| ubottu | Package swat does not exist in artful | 21:23 |
| oerheks | :-( | 21:23 |
| new0 | adalbert, mmm no. not after reboot. but if i play with sharing setting on ubuntu i can feel it via win7. and before i did update and dist-upgrade on ubuntu (yesterday) it did prompt me with user and pass. but just not getting accessed to it. and now i am getting accessed, but just not getting prompt :) | 21:23 |
| new0 | wieeeerd | 21:23 |
| adalbert | new0: windows keeps samba login's in the cache till a reboot or a certain amount of idle time, no idea how long tho. | 21:24 |
| new0 | adalbert, mmmmmm i guess my Q will be. what should/prefer/best practice... to use for sharing with ubuntu? | 21:24 |
| new0 | adalbert, okkk would u know how may i clear those caching? | 21:25 |
| adalbert | new0: either sftp ssh or samba. | 21:25 |
| new0 | adalbert, mmm another thought maybe this time i will google it?! | 21:25 |
| adalbert | new0: I have no idea about cleaing the cache | 21:25 |
| new0 | adalbert, another method i meant.. not sftp ssh.. but another method for samba. like GUI or just directive? and if yes to GUI what tool is good/best? likable? | 21:26 |
| adalbert | new0: a restart of the samba server on the ubuntu machine "might" force the windows connections to reset but i'm not sure about that, have to test it | 21:26 |
| new0 | adalbert, about it.. will google it. but about how to use sharing setting with samba i hope to learn here. or google it to. however you will guide me ;) | 21:27 |
| adalbert | new0: another method ? I'm not aware other than editing the smb.conf file either by hand or GUI ? | 21:27 |
| new0 | adalbert, yes. is GUI interapting with directive? and vice versa? | 21:28 |
| new0 | adalbert, or maybe i will just play around with directive before i am getting into GUI? tomreyn, kostkon, ... suggestions? | 21:29 |
| adalbert | new0: the GUI is just a frontend for editing the smb.conf file. How the GUI handles that process is different for every GUI i suppose, Some might overwrite the config file with a new one , others might update the GUI according to the config file. | 21:30 |
| adalbert | new0: what i'm saying is, that working with both might cause problems in configuration. | 21:31 |
| new0 | adalbert, yes. this is what i see. conf and GUI not match exact | 21:34 |
| adalbert | new0: in any case, after making changes to the config file either by hand or GUI you can run the 'testparm' program to verify your samba configuration . (see man testparm) | 21:34 |
| new0 | adalbert, yes. testparm | 21:34 |
| new0 | adalbert, does it say something? http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/fQPB455FCb/ | 21:36 |
| adalbert | looks good, except i would disable access to guests , but that's a personal choice. | 21:37 |
| new0 | adalbert, whattt? this is why i don't get prompt to user and pass? | 21:38 |
| adalbert | new0: guests do not have write permissions tho. | 21:39 |
| new0 | adalbert, fine.. but right now i don't have access at all | 21:40 |
| new0 | adalbert, i could open files and see list of files/folders but not changing them. GREAT. but, not it's says Windows cannot access... maybe i need valid users or something? | 21:41 |
| adalbert | new0: yes you need to create users for samba. | 21:42 |
| adalbert | new0: example here: https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/adding-a-user-to-a-samba-smb-share/ | 21:43 |
| new0 | adalbert, i do have one user for samba | 21:43 |
| adalbert | new0: have you used smbpasswd ? | 21:44 |
| new0 | adalbert, mmm i have done it via GUI but when i did it by terminal it was saying already exists | 21:45 |
| adalbert | new0: oke, then your user account should be setup for samba | 21:46 |
| new0 | adalbert, another weird thing is: when i go to my Network location on Win7 and open the share folders by network name (NetBios) it's open the share folder. but when i open it via \\IP it's say Windows cannot access | 21:47 |
| new0 | adalbert, | 21:47 |
| new0 | adalbert, but why it's behaving like this/. | 21:47 |
| new0 | ? | 21:47 |
| lokifaer | hi all | 21:48 |
| lokifaer | I just installed 17.10 and fought for adding the auto num lock with numlockx | 21:51 |
| lokifaer | then I finally realized that the command itself doesn't do anything at all | 21:52 |
| oerheks | new0, did you use something like smb://ip/share/dirpath ? | 21:52 |
| oerheks | not just //ip | 21:52 |
| adalbert | new0: did you try \\ or \\\\ ? I believe on windows you need 4slashes ... | 21:52 |
| new0 | adalbert, ok. Q when i click Property of Folder in home dir "Music" and click the tab "Local Network Share" does it belong to samba? | 21:53 |
| lokifaer | any idea what's happening here? | 21:53 |
| adalbert | new0: i believe it does . | 21:53 |
| new0 | oerheks, in windows you just do \\IP or \\Netbios-name\share-folder | 21:53 |
| new0 | adalbert, can u make sure? if u want of course :0 | 21:54 |
| new0 | adalbert, * :) | 21:54 |

| BlitzerHound | My system's been running really laggy lately and seemingly for no reason | 21:56 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: not if you're sticking to the original repo's... | 21:57 |
| BlitzerHound | I mean I haven't installed anything shady | 21:57 |
| adalbert | adalbert: BlitzerHound , 3th party ... anything could happen :D | 21:57 |
| BlitzerHound | Aside from stuff on wine. But that wouldn't affect anything would it? | 21:57 |
| new0 | adalbert, i was referring to "Locat Network Share" tab on Music folder property. lokifaer, i wanted to know if this tab is connected to samba or it just Ubuntu share?! also why when access share folder from win7 to ubuntu/samba it's not prompting for user and password. i do have security = user in /etc/samba/smb.conf | 21:58 |
| BlitzerHound | Is there like a system restore function or something? I'm just trying to figure out how to stop the lag on my system | 21:58 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: what's the load on your system? | 21:59 |
| BlitzerHound | Um... I dunno | 21:59 |
| Jordan_U | BlitzerHound: There are many things that can cause Ubuntu to become laggy, from bugs to misconfiguration. The least likely reason is malware. Do note however that Windows malware *can* run via Wine, and wine doesn't provide you much in the way of protection from that. If malware would encrypt all your personal files and ransom you in Windows, it will do the same if you run the same executable via wine. | 21:59 |

| adalbert | BlitzerHound: a load of close to 2, something is dragging ... | 22:02 |
| BlitzerHound | The top process says 'main'. The other ones are under 2mb of memory | 22:03 |

| BlitzerHound | And nothing seems to be taking up much cpu. | 22:03 |
| BlitzerHound | It's just all 0 besides the system monitor I'm using | 22:04 |

| adalbert | BlitzerHound: impossible with a load of 2... | 22:04 |
| BlitzerHound | Should I not be checking from the system monitor? | 22:04 |
| new0 | lokifaer, yes | 22:04 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: run top or htop as root ... sudo top, sudo htop. | 22:05 |
| lokifaer | do you use the same user on both os? | 22:05 |
| BlitzerHound | I don't understand what I'm looking at | 22:05 |
| new0 | lokifaer, of course if i set guest ok =yes it will be access but i don't want it to be accessable without user and pass | 22:05 |
| BlitzerHound | I see something that says xorg and that's taking up 15.9 cpu | 22:06 |
| new0 | lokifaer, not the same user | 22:06 |
| BlitzerHound | But fluctuating from that to 2.0 | 22:06 |

| BlitzerHound | Is that a bad thing? | 22:40 |
| BlitzerHound | Event logging sounds kinda bad | 22:41 |
| Jordan_U | BlitzerHound: It's not malware, and I have no problem with it, but some people don't like it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeitgeist_(free_software) | 22:41 |

| SlidingHorn | BlitzerHound: jbd is using a ton of resources (it's apparently a python wrapper around rsync [a software used for backups, etc]) | 22:51 |
| BlitzerHound | So what should I do? | 22:51 |
| BlitzerHound | I don't see jbd on the process list | 22:52 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: your drive is writing at 99% | 22:52 |
| SlidingHorn | well, first, I'd look into why you needed to install jbd (it's not in the repos), if you still need it, and figure out why it's running when you don't know it. | 22:52 |
| BlitzerHound | Is there a way to straightout uninstall it? I don't remember installing that | 22:53 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: stop rsync ... ? | 22:53 |
| SlidingHorn | BlitzerHound: it's in the window at the bottom left of your screenshot...it's currently holding 99% of your disk I/O and presumably is the python application using 12% of your CPU | 22:54 |
| BlitzerHound | It said I don't have a 'stop' command | 22:55 |
| BlitzerHound | But I have 17 similar commands | 22:55 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: first show us which process is linked to the 12% cpu pls | 22:55 |
| SlidingHorn | BlitzerHound: ^^ that's in the htop window | 22:56 |
| BlitzerHound | Alright, I see it. So how do I like... uninstall it? Like I said, I don't need it, I don't remember installing it | 22:56 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: fullscreen htop output pls | 22:56 |
| tgm4883 | You shouldn't try to remove jbd2 | 22:57 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: you can stop rsync : sudo service rsync stop | 22:57 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: see if that calms things down. | 22:58 |
| BlitzerHound | ok | 22:58 |
| tgm4883 | I'm a little concerned that someone suggested you do so | 22:58 |
| BlitzerHound | Would it be bad to have on? | 22:59 |
| BlitzerHound | Also, it seems like it's still kinda lagging. Better though, for sure. | 22:59 |
| Seveas | jbd2 is part of the kernel, part of interacting with the disks. You cannot remove it. If it's busy, that simply means you're doing lots of I/O | 22:59 |
| tgm4883 | exactly | 22:59 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: unless you're using rsync, you shouldn't use it. | 22:59 |
| Seveas | and yeah, rsycn doing lots of I/O will make jbd2 busy :) | 22:59 |

| adalbert | BlitzerHound: check load in 5 minutes, it should be below 1 | 23:00 |
| BlitzerHound | How do I check just the load? | 23:00 |
| Seveas | BlitzerHound: 'uptime' | 23:00 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: or htop | 23:00 |
| Seveas | or cat /proc/loadavg :) | 23:01 |
| adalbert | Load Average | 23:01 |

| adalbert | BlitzerHound: in order to stop rsync from running on the next boot you can use: sudo systemctl disable rsync | 23:03 |
| BlitzerHound | Alright, I'll do that. | 23:04 |
| BlitzerHound | I'm watching the load average and it IS going down steadily it seems. | 23:04 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: check also for sure if the 99% IO is gone now in iotop. | 23:05 |
| BlitzerHound | No, it's still there | 23:07 |
| BlitzerHound | It says jbd2/sda 1-8 | 23:07 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: still at 99%? | 23:08 |
| BlitzerHound | Yeah | 23:08 |
| HoloIRCUser3 | Hello I just installed ubuntu mate and I noticed that the secondary click on my trackpad is a two-finger click versus a right-click is there any way to change this to a right-click thanks | 23:08 |
| new0 | 1) when opening share folder.. it's just opened, not user and pass prompt. 2) second, when i explore via Netbios name \\computer-name all shared folder are opening, and when i explore via \\IP it's acting like the smb.conf meaning guest ok = yes are opened and valid users = a-user get me an error of "windows cannot access..." | 23:08 |
| new0 | any solution? | 23:08 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: that last screenshot , is that sudo htop or just htop ? | 23:13 |
| BlitzerHound | I'll do a sudo htop just to be sure | 23:14 |
| NutsEverywhere | anyone here using budgie desktop? | 23:14 |
| SlidingHorn | NutsEverywhere: what's your actual question? | 23:16 |
| BlitzerHound | This is the sudo htop | 23:17 |
| BlitzerHound | https://imgur.com/a/RTkAh | 23:17 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: well, that certainly looks oke. | 23:18 |
| BlitzerHound | c But the io thing is still at 99 | 23:18 |
| BlitzerHound | And it's still lagging | 23:19 |
| BlitzerHound | Should I try rebooting maybe? | 23:19 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: are you running any Raid formation on the system? | 23:19 |
| BlitzerHound | I'd assume not since I don't know what that is | 23:19 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: then try a reboot yes. | 23:19 |
| BlitzerHound | Ok. brb | 23:19 |
| BlitzerHound | Okay so I don't know if anything worked but it's not lagging. I haven't started firefox though | 23:24 |
| BlitzerHound | Also update, the thing with 99 on the iotop isn't showing up | 23:25 |
| BlitzerHound | adalbert: Should I start firefox and see if it stays that way? | 23:26 |

| BlitzerHound | But again I haven't started anything but smuxi | 23:30 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: just keep an eye on iotop. | 23:31 |
| BlitzerHound | Alright. I'm gonna try firefox. | 23:31 |
| BlitzerHound | See the second I opened firefox it started again | 23:32 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: really ? well then I guess there's something wrong with the firefox installation ... | 23:32 |
| BlitzerHound | Gonna reboot and see if it starts with chromium | 23:33 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: OK | 23:33 |
| BlitzerHound | Is there a possibility I'm being spied on or something? | 23:33 |

| SlidingHorn | BlitzerHound & adalbert let's take into account here that the machine is only 2GB of memory and is running Gnome & FF, which is going to use over half of that off the bat | 23:34 |
| adalbert | SlidingHorn: true, but the problem is jbd, taking up 99% in resources in iotop. | 23:35 |
| === Guest49167 is now known as hehehe | ||
| SlidingHorn | adalbert: I apologize, I assumed when they said "it started again" that they meant lag, not necessarily the I/O max-out issue | 23:36 |
| adalbert | SlidingHorn: if this was only for a couple of seconds or minutes it would be oke, but persistent 99% sounds like a loop somewhere | 23:36 |

| adalbert | SlidingHorn: right, that's one thing to figure out. | 23:37 |
| === greywolf is now known as funwolf | ||
| xuanrui | Thx | 23:39 |
| BlitzerHound | adalbert: Yeah man it's not going away. It starts with both firefox and chrome | 23:42 |
| BlitzerHound | And I think this time It just started up with the system | 23:42 |
| BlitzerHound | Starting to get worried. I'm already paranoid as it is | 23:42 |
| SlidingHorn | BlitzerHound: just to clarify something: by "it" are you talking about the jbd process or do you just mean the lag? | 23:44 |
| BlitzerHound | both | 23:44 |
| BlitzerHound | Well the process started when I booted up possibly, but for sure the lag hit when I opened chromium | 23:45 |
| SlidingHorn | could you post the output of ls ~/.config/autostart | 23:45 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: well, as I know nothing about jbd workings and such, this goes beyond my knowledge... Anyone else in that area ? | 23:45 |
| SlidingHorn | (pastebin, please) | 23:46 |
| BlitzerHound | Pastebin what? | 23:46 |
| BlitzerHound | The iotop thing? | 23:46 |
| SlidingHorn | BlitzerHound: sorry I didn't tag you: please pastebin the output of ls ~/.config/autostart | 23:47 |
| === alb3rt is now known as Guest43250 | ||
| BlitzerHound | Says there's no such file or directory | 23:48 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: if you really want to get paranoid, run iftop :) | 23:51 |
| BlitzerHound | Also, is it normal to have a file named "Trolltech.conf" in your .config folder? | 23:52 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: I seriously doubt it ! | 23:53 |
| BlitzerHound | I just searched and it says it's normal. o3o | 23:54 |
| BlitzerHound | I dunno. Is there a way to just permanently disable that one process? Or does it not work like that? | 23:54 |
| adalbert | BlitzerHound: as far as I know, you need jbd, it handles the data-transactions from system to disks etc | 23:55 |
