[00:02] Boyette: you connected your VPS out to a VPN? [00:02] Boyette: or setup your VPS with a VPN connection to connect out with? [00:03] i tried to setup a vpn on the vps [00:03] to change the ip of the vps [00:03] my bluetooth headset defaults to a2dp and works on xenial, but on trusty I can't use a2dp: "[pulseaudio] module-bluetooth-device.c: Profile not connected, refused to switch profile to a2dp" any ideas? [00:03] because its in canada and the saudi and israeli ban canadian connections now [00:03] and i finally managed [00:03] then i was completely banned out [00:03] offcourse because the ip changed [00:03] and its secured [00:04] Boyette: Contact the VPN provider, they should be able to force the connection offline, which (hopefully) won't try to auto reconnect [00:04] i forced a reboot [00:04] because its not on autoconnect [00:05] but this damaged some partition [00:05] also how am i going to fix this [00:05] Boyette: so you're able to manage your VPS remotely through the providers management portal? [00:06] yes [00:06] however [00:06] this is not working either because the console was also blocked [00:06] but i could still send a forced reboot command [00:07] Boyette: best option now is to put in a support ticket to the VPS provider [00:08] and what will i ask them to do [00:11] how does such thing ever work [00:11] only with 2 ips ? [00:12] Has anyone found a way to run office365 in Ubuntu? [00:12] you cant work from a management portal [00:12] there is libreoffice for that craigbass76 [00:12] there is a reason ubuntu exist and that is not because of microsoft [00:12] Boyette, Powerpoint won't play nice with LibreOffice [00:12] pff it does [00:13] only macro's in excel is really a problem [00:13] I've got text overlaying other text in the one I was working on yesterday [00:13] https://www.lifewire.com/microsoft-office-on-linux-4137049 [00:13] But not in "real" office [00:13] or use cloudbased office [00:14] @pragmaticeenigma how can this ever work [00:14] Boyette, even the online version of office won't work rightg. Go figure, eh? [00:14] i can never login anymore when the vps is operative [00:14] Both of those issues have nothing to do with ubuntu [00:14] vpn sorry [00:15] well i came here actually because i didnt manage to make the vpn work [00:15] but right now this is indeed not an ubuntu issue because actually ubuntu does what i told her to do [00:15] Yeah, you told it to lock you out [00:15] exactly [00:16] so i need 2 ips [00:16] thats the only solution [00:16] The solution would be to split tunnel the vpn, but thats more of a ##networking thing [00:17] hmm [00:17] im really very very stupid [00:17] do you know that [00:17] even im drunk [00:17] this doesnt mean i should have been that stupid [00:18] and im even locked out to the console aswell [00:19] is there an app to relay a video stream? taking a rtsp:// video and provide http:// service with the video for multiple clients. [00:24] _..._ [00:29] craigbass76: You can see if Wine has caught up to supporting office 365, I kind of doubt it as of yet. [00:31] dli: This channel is better suited to support type questions.. you may have luck with #ubuntu-offtopic [00:33] i have another question, has anyone successfully gotten rid of the "press enter to finish" message on the installer? i'm using the traditional installer on ubuntu 18.04, i put "noprompt" in the kernel command line but it still asks [00:33] pragmaticenigma, I don't know how it would, unless maybe I used a "windows" browser, like running an exe in Wine, then visiting the office site again. [00:36] pragmaticenigma, I could to a virtual box, but then I'd need a WIndows license. I quit pirating back around Fedora 1, when I quit Windows... [00:37] craigbass76: you can download a trial iso from microsoft's website, probably would work for testing [00:38] craigbass76: smart move to go on the legit, as far as wine supporting it, you might try asking in #winehq to see if anyone is aware of how to make it work [00:38] iso of windows? <-- dami0 [00:38] yeah [00:39] pragmaticenigma, I do grab music every so often, but I've always owned it on vinyl or cassette at some point. [00:39] or have a scratched CD [00:39] dami0, where? I'm logged into my ms accoutn and don't see a link anywhere [00:40] 18.04.1 LTS has been making changes on the X Server? [00:40] craigbass76: crossover support office 365, you still have to aquire an exe from the office.com site. [00:40] dami0, nevermind -- I found it I think [00:41] MS is such a . [00:41] craigbass76: i was gonna say maybe they removed it. all i can find now is the media tool [00:42] Biessie: I'm not understanding your question, can you rephrase? [00:43] pragmaticenigma : the changes that were just pushed out this past few weeks for gnome, x, etc does it help with older computers to allow it to run with less CPU usage? [00:44] about a month ago someone here mentioned it would have changes to make it run more smoother on older machines in the near future [00:46] hi, I set my nvidia driver from nouveau to nvidia-driver in the software updater and after I reboot, I get stuck on the purple screen [00:47] tty2 is showing "A start job is running for Hold unitl boot process finishes up (18min 5s / no limit). on 18.04 [00:47] Biessie: Since I don't know the context of the previous conversation, let's just disregaurd that comment. Changes are made to all parts of the Ubuntu system. As far as performance improvements, when possible, those are being made. However, there is no guarantee that will fix/help older systems. X server has been around for a very long time, and runs on all types of hardware. I have running on an old Celeron Laptop circa [00:47] 2003 without issues, and even an older generation of raspberry pi [00:48] pragmaticenigma : Roger that. my CPU jumps from 5-10% usage to 90%+ at random. i will reboot shortly and see if it helped any. I ended up changing to cinnamon which helped a good bit [00:48] Biessie: If anything, it sounds like the previous conversation you had was someone that misunderstood your original question. Is there a specific issue that you feel X is causing, and can you explain what you are experiencing? [00:49] Biessie: Switching a Desktop Environment sounds like the Desktop Environment was to blame, not X Server [00:49] and by usage, i am referring to xorg [00:50] When I reboot, I get the same problem. I can't access a tty [00:50] I just get the systemd error loading message [00:50] pragmaticenigma : Okay just upgraded and rebooted. idle xorg is at 1.3% which is a good big difference already. Hopefully it gets better! :) [00:50] Older hardware isn't going to run the latest versions of Gnome or KDE. Their system requirements are quite high. However, LXDE, XFCE, Cinamon even, have much lower system requirements [00:51] yea it's prob due to the gnome environment .. agreed [00:51] Biessie: Xorg/X11/Xserver processes instructions and renders an image on screen. It is also responsible for user input devices like keyboard and mouse when in a graphical environment. [00:52] Biessie: it's system resource usage is dictated by application sending it instructions on what to display. [00:52] Makes sense [00:52] !nomodeset | cantboot [00:52] cantboot: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [00:52] My laptop is fairly old. ASUS UL50VT model [00:53] I have a Toshiba Satellite A10, much older. I haven't even attempted Gnome Shell, or KDE 5 on it, knowing that it would just choke [00:54] I use LXDE (or Lubuntu) on it. Runs like a champ, and can do most things, even some lower resolution youtube videos [00:55] Ill look into those. Cinnamon works fairly decent on this [00:56] Biessie: for me personally, I'm more concerned about being able to use my applications than I am about the desktop interface [00:56] with the update today (been about 2 weeks since i ran my last one) it was idleing at about 5% now it's 1-2% so im about to put it to the test [00:58] Also, does it make a difference if i install the 'server' distro and then apt-get the desktop files? shouldnt be any different than if i installed the desktop version initially? [00:58] Biessie: no difference [00:58] Thought so. thanks! [00:59] nope, no difference Biessie ... all the "spins" or "flavors" have the same core, just configured to install different packages by default [00:59] ubottu: how can I turn that parameter on, since I can't get to the tty? [00:59] cantboot: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:59] cantboot: The link in message gives instructions [01:00] cantboot: it was under the bold header "How to temporarily set kernel boot options on an installed OS" [01:00] followed by what you need to do to make it permanent [01:00] pragmaticenigma: I tried holding down shift but it didn't work (UEFI). I was able to get to a grub terminal by holding down ESC [01:00] but I didn't see the grub menu [01:01] the one that lists ubuntu (memtest), where you can press 'e' [01:01] Did you press e and put the mode in? then ctrl+x [01:02] cantboot: see what xamithan said [01:02] xamithan: I only see he grub terminal, not the boot options [01:02] it looks like grub> [01:03] Thats grub rescue mode [01:06] pragmaticenigma: xamithan ah.. I held the key too long. I was able to get to the entry edit now [01:06] !yay [01:06] Glad you made it! :-) [01:07] Just keep track of which nvidia version driver you use so you know which not to do if it doesn't work [01:12] predmijat: just rebooted twice.. edited the config, loaded with ctrl+x. no luck [01:13] You didn't get it loaded with ctrl+x ? [01:13] Did you get a prompt, or . anything ? [01:13] when I press ctrl +x it goes into boot [01:14] no prompt [01:14] Did ya try ctrl + alt + f2 to switch terminals [01:14] Once you get booted up of course [01:15] hi [01:15] I'M ON A 4MHZ COMPUTER [01:16] JASON-OLD: can we help you with something? [01:16] xamithan: I know I loaded it right, I tried ctrl+x or f10 (says at bottom of grub). but I'm still stuck a purple screen [01:16] NO I HAVE TO GO, BYE [01:16] tty2 is showing the same message as earlier, where it just gets stuck forever [01:17] Thats weird, well if you really can't switch terminals you could try the recovery option under advanced and chroot. Then reinstall the nvidia driver from there [01:21] xamithan: I spoke too soon.. tty1 finally loaded up some systemd boot messages and tty2 is accessible! [01:30] xamithan: I can get in with nomodeset and startx, with the wrong resolution. I verified that nvidia-driver-390 was uninstalled. When I reboot ( no nomodeset), I'm getting the same purple screen :/ [01:33] If you did it from restricted GUI section you can set it back to noveau, but its easier to just install nvidia-364 or another verison [01:34] xamithan: I actually rebooted with nvidia disabled in my bios and I am getting the same thing [01:34] I thought intel boot would be safe [01:34] don't know how that got messed up by the nvidia driver install [01:43] trying to install vmware....getting an error stating that my dpkg needs to update [01:43] Well technicall "dpkg: error: dpkg status database is locked by another process [01:43] " [01:43] tied to update...no avail [01:43] just a general update === toaderas__ is now known as toaderas [01:44] I did change the package via chmod a+x [01:45] tried using apt-get isntall VM~~~ [01:45] think its wither dpkg is really tring to update or the fact that the the VMware package is a .bundle [01:46] bocephus: 1) vmware is not a .deb generally [01:46] mayble i will just try to install a reg .deb [01:46] bocephus: 2) dpkg being locked means that dpkg is running [01:46] bocephus: or it crashed possibly [01:46] okay [01:46] sounds about right [01:47] disconcerning when everyone leaves...hahaha [01:47] new shift?

[03:46] ubuntu 16.04 [03:46] :o [03:46] Upgrade to 18.04 spinningcat, 16.04 is way old [03:46] does not look right why now_ [03:46] stevendale, i heard 16.04 is stable one [03:46] spinningcat, http://releases.ubuntu.com/bionic/ubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent [03:46] my friend told me that [03:46] 18.04.1 is more stable [03:47] i can upgrade with aptitude dist-upgrade right? [03:47] No, use the built in software updater if you choose to upgrade [03:47] But you shouldn't upgrade [03:47] Clean installs always, always, *Always* yield better results [03:50] I see [03:50] can you tell me what is wrong in my config btw? [03:50] Is this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug supposed to create a bug or link to a wiki, because the "Report a bug" text is really deceiving and not cool if it is supposed to link to a wiki. [03:52] spinningcat: ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999 ' for X's log file . the result is a URL back in terminal . pass that link back here .

[04:01] if ubuntu 16.04 can execute unity3d i will go with that [04:01] caliculk, the link you provided (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug) goes to a wiki page telling you how to report bugs. [04:03] Thats very misleading... if you wish to "file a bug" it should perform the action, not send you to a wiki link where there is 13 different sections, and most of the steps revolve around the GUI (which is not installed by default in the server version) [04:03] * jarrid bows to all the nice people. [04:03] Call it "how to file a bug", but don't call it "file a bug" [04:04] spinningcat: X is happy, and no issues are reported . and the correct driver is loaded: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us . What issues are you experiencing ? [04:05] Because from that wiki page, I am still not 100% certain how to file a bug against a specific package without a GUI, or when it does not involve a crash. [04:05] i am just checking [04:05] if there is a problem [04:05] Does anyone know if ubuntu 18.04 will support a radeon 5750 video card? [04:05] Bashing-om, i will do some game developments [04:05] Bashing-om, than you so much === jarrid is now known as clock2099 [04:07] spinningcat: All looks good in the log . And I would expect the gpu-manager to also report happy ' cat /var/log/gpu-manager.log ' . [04:07] clock2099, I believe it should, but don't quote me on that. I have not tested it, nor do I have AMD hardware. As long as you install the right drivers/kernel extension/module, it should detect the hardware. Now for what hardware that is, I can't answer that. [04:09] caliculk: you are looking at the radeon driver with that card . see: ' man radeon '. The driver is in the kernel . [04:09] caliculk ... I seem to remember that the 5700 series was discontinued some time ago. [04:10] Bashing-om, http://termbin.com/w79d [04:10] caliculk, `ubuntu-bug` ("apport-bug symptom | pid | package | program path | .apport/.crash file" from `man` page) allows package as an option.. yeah the page is written as if crash has occurred - but it's what you're after (filing on package) i believe [04:12] guiverc, what if it is a combination of two packages? In this case, samba and samba-zfs-modules? [04:12] caliculk, the section you want on page is "Reporting non-crash hardware and desktop application bugs" [04:12] samba-vfs-modules* [04:12] anyone else seeing directories in /lib/modules corresponding to old kernels not getting removed, even after `apt-get autoremove`? [04:12] this is on bionic [04:13] I found this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+filebug which I am guessing will do something very similar, but... still. Would rather do it the proper way and then add additional information. [04:13] i'd suggest the modules (guess) - if you tag the wrong package, someone (bug-squad etc) will re-classify it for you [04:14] spinningcat: gpu-manager is happy also :) [04:14] good [04:14] thanks again [04:17] unity worked nice ! === sylvain is now known as Guest59494 === Guest59494 is now known as sylvain_233 [04:33] <_edouard> test [04:35] Can anyone verify for me that Ubuntu 18.04 lts will work for a radeon 5750? I looked on the support page and the 5700 series is not on there.

[06:22] me-1: I'd go XFCE4 for sure - it'll be tight but it will run [06:23] me-1: check out xUbuntu [06:23] guiverc no erros there [06:23] me-1, yes both will work; XFCE is lighter (slower at moving to GTK+3 so is lighter than modern MATE) - but yep. (your memory is the issue for your machine) [06:23] yeah, under any app load you're gonna be swapping a LOT [06:23] x86-, good. looking.. [06:24] guiverc, ok still python3 is missing and won't install [06:25] me-1: might want to take a look at this too - https://lubuntu.net/ [06:25] mouses, guiverc I will upgrade my ram . I will go for MATE for nostologia :) . Thank you for your help [06:25] x86-, did you execute sudo apt-get update ? [06:25] x86-, can you `apt-cache policy python3-setuptools` (https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/python3-setuptools) sending results to pastebin please [06:25] yes [06:25] me-1: have a good night/day! [06:25] python3-setuptools: Installed: (none) Candidate: 39.0.1-2 Version table: 39.0.1-2 500 500 http://us-east-2.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages [06:25] It's not installed [06:26] oot@ip-172-26-7-17:/usr/lib/python2.7# python3 bash: /usr/bin/python3: No such file or directory root@ip-172-26-7-17:/usr/lib/python2.7# python3.6 bash: /usr/bin/python3.6: No such file or directory root@ip-172-26-7-17:/usr/lib/python2.7# python3.5 bash: python3.5: command not found [06:27] x86-: what does file /usr/bin/python3.6 say?

[06:33] hash -r not that it'll matter much [06:35] ok so how can I fix this issue?? [06:36] hard to say, looks like there's something weird with amazon's apt repos [06:37] I installed a bunch of packages earlier [06:37] I removed all of them [06:38] x86-, if you `whereis python3` do you get a result? i'm suspicious you've removed python3 via `rm` & like command, so your package database doesn't match what is really installed? [06:39] yeah I had to [06:39] because apt-get remove wouldn't work.. [06:39] I removed all of the broken stuff, updated and apt-get install python3 now is installing python3.7 [06:39] trying to install 3.6 now [06:39] I’m having an odd issue with some Ubuntu servers. I have a web, app and db server. I setup Redis on the app server, and can ping it via redis-cli from the db server, but not from the web server. I’m getting the error “No route to host”. I have the firewall opened on the app server to both my db and web servers.. App is 18.04, web and db are 16.04. I don’t see anything in the server logs for app or web servers. Any ideas about wha [06:39] to try? The firewall is open to accepting connections on the port.. There is no ufw rule for blocking connections on the web server for that port [06:41] you can't use apt & dpkg type tools to install anything you manually deleted; until you get your file system to match the database. I would suggest copying `scp` them from another [like] server, or re-install -- they work from a now mismatched-database & you'll get problems like this till.. (maybe someone else has better ideas..) [06:43] this is driving me crazy [06:44] can anyone please help me [06:45] python3-minimal : PreDepends: python3.6-minimal (>= 3.6.5-2~) but it is not going to be installed [06:47] x86-, ok just got, not sure I can help, how did you install stuff other than apt install, and which version of ubuntu? [06:47] it's ubuntu 18 [06:47] I used apt-get [06:47] ok [06:48] I removed anything I installed today [06:48] ok [06:48] and I used apt as well [06:48] ok [06:48] I removed all but there is still dependencies [06:48] The following packages have unmet dependencies: python3 : PreDepends: python3-minimal (= 3.6.5-3ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed Depends: python3.6 (>= 3.6.5-2~) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [06:48] I can get python3.7 to install but not python3.7 pip.. I just removed it [06:48] but I can't get python3.6 or python3.5 [06:48] x86-, ok hold on [06:50] cozthanks [06:52] x86-, you can a repository with most versions of python if you want [06:52] install a [06:53] x86-, hopefully you could install any version, would you like the repo command? [06:54] I am not on ubuntu att the moment so cannot test it [06:54] ok [06:55] x86-, sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa [06:55] x86-, then sudo apt update [06:56] x86-, if you have synaptic installed, you can see versions of python via gui [06:56] .======. [06:57] x86-, or via terminal apt-cache policy [06:57] installing something like python from a ppa is pretty high-risk, it could easily break something [06:59] ducasse, surely possible, I am not at his system , and seems some things already broken [06:59] x86-, how long has the system been installed? [07:00] then i would rather fix those before making it worse :) [07:00] hi [07:00] ducasse, makes sense, same here, if you can push suggestions [07:01] ducasse, give it a try [07:01] ZaZaQR, hey guy [07:01] Hey, if I launch a terminal via another terminal i can't search history... If I run `bindkey -L | grep R` in this terminal I get: `bindkey "^R" redisplay` which is weird? Any ideas? [07:01] Using zsh [07:02] hi [07:03] ZaZaQR, what's up? [07:04] x86-, what is happening? [07:06] well I have to go, x86- hope it works out, if not someone here at some point, will have a solution [07:09] x86-: you removed python manually, with rm? [07:10] x86-, founf this link, may help out http://bhfsteve.blogspot.com/2012/05/run-multiple-python-versions-on-your.html [07:10] found [07:13] hi! [07:13] hey [07:13] x86-, are you still here or pvt? [07:14] is there a way, using apt or apt-get, to read update's changelog _before_ installing the update? [07:14] apt-get policy program [07:16] mementomori, $ aptitude changelog package-name maybe [07:16] ZaZaQR, 'policy' is not a valid option [07:17] My audio system is connected to my monitor so when my laptop is attached to the docking station (which is connected over hdmi to the monitor) I can play sound over this. However I am using i3, so I dont have the usual gnome sound control stuff. [07:17] Until now I use pavucontrol to set the hdmi stuff, but every time I attach my laptop in the docking station, I need to open pavucontrol, set "hdmi output" in the configuration and also set it as a default device [07:17] Is there a way to save this configuration and execute it from a script? [07:18] apt-cache policy programName [07:18] x86-, at some point I would like to know your solution [07:18] have to go [07:18] hi [07:19] yeah, apt-cache policy pkg to see what package version is currently installed, and which version is available, and apt-get changelog pkg to see the changes between those versions [07:19] ZaZaQR, apt-cache policy shows just the versions installed and to be installed. Not the changelog. [07:19] oh i thought you wanted that [07:20] perfect. apt-get changelog is what I was looking for [07:20] thank you guys! [07:20] oh cool [07:23] ubuntu 18.04 with incompatible updates of bionic backports worked for me less than a week [07:31] ops i did it again [07:35] thanks it works === qwebirc2449 is now known as nexilus [07:37] hello, I [07:38] Im having a weird graphics problem and dont know what to look for / do, on my Acer Aspire S13, after using it a while and starting intellij for example or some other intensive program like a virtualbox instance, i get graphics anomalies on the screen, the terminal starts to "lagg" and blink between old data and the new data === renato_ is now known as Guest85734 [07:38]
