However, the icon does not appear on my real desktop. [00:14] There is only a Trash icon on my real desktop.

[02:54] poz1: here or the forums [02:55] Okay sounds good [02:57] I have a NAS set up, and I can see it on the network inside of Nautilus, but it wont let me access it [02:57] poz1: Maybe permission on the nas? [02:58] I have been googleing for awhile and tryed a few things but I either could not find the info I need to complete the steps or the steps did not work [02:58] maybe, but windows 10 computers can see and access it without any addtional steps [02:59] Is it a ntfs nas? [02:59] probobly [02:59] its been awhile since I set it up [03:00] Not the most experianced person in linux but you might need samba to mount ntfs network shares [03:00] Yes, and I have been trying that [03:00] but I need the share name of the NAS system, but I dont know what that is or where I can find that [03:01] you can do it by ip [03:01] \\ipaddress\share [03:01] \ipaddressshare: command not found [03:01] How do I pull the IP of the NAS? [03:02] lol read what I typed and put in the correct info [03:02] nm, I found it by guessing [03:02] and that is not a command it is a path to a network share [03:05] bash: //192.168.0.52/share: No such file or directory [03:06] .. I just told you that is not a bash command [03:06] that is a network path [03:06] interesting [03:06] you are typing words and I am reading words but I still am not sure what to do [03:07] Let me try to break it down what I mean [03:07] thank you [03:07] the \\ipaddress section like your \\192.168.0.52\ is the base of the share [03:07] so anything you share will start there. [03:08] Now if you share a folder called test it will be \\192.168.0.52\test [03:09] if you have a folder in test called newtest it will be \\192.168.0.52\test\newtest [03:09] Does that make since? [03:09] Yes, but I dont know how the structure of the folders are on my NAS [03:10] As I said I am probablly a bad person to ask on linux because I am a windows admin but I know some ip scanners can show you shared folders and shared printers [03:11] What kind of nas is it? [03:11] synology?

What DISPLAY do I set for it to reconnect to the local x server? Tried DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 with no luck [03:16] poz1: it's wanting the NAS login credentials/password [03:17] Thats weird, it has never asked for that in windows 10. its open on my network so guest privileges should work [03:18] poz1: usually when a consumer obtains a NAS they configure some folders and define access permission for those folders...this is using done via the web interface or some software [03:18] poz1: then just press ENTER [03:18] poz1: smbclient -L 192.168.0.52 [03:18] Yes, and when I type in 192.168.0.52 it goes to that interface [03:19] poz1: hold on try this [03:19] so that brings up some info but its not my NAS info. its the info for the laptop I am on right now [03:20] poz1: make a pastebin and share what info you see [03:20] It does need a user and password to access that interface. but I should not need it to access the public (on the netword) folders [03:20] okay [03:20] poz1: if it's not the NAS then you got your IP's wrong [03:20] but the ip goes to access the nas so it has to be right [03:21] poz1: then you better let me look at this "info" [03:21] poz1: make a termbin or pastebin [03:21] poz1: are you familiar with how to make a pastebin of the info [03:21] https://pastebin.com/7rP9jhbn [03:22] I did it the hard way by going to the webside and copying it over and creating the pastebin and then coping it to here [03:22] IPC$ IPC IPC Service (My life is Cat NAS meow.) [03:22] poz1: you said NOT your NAS eh? [03:23] I say a lot of things [03:23] not always knowing what I am talking about [03:23] that's why it's important that you just let me look at things [03:23] so what is that? [03:24] poz1: well my guess is '(My life is Cat NAS meow.)' is something you typed in while playing in the NAS web GUI correct? yes or no [03:24] Yes [03:25] its then named CATNAS on my network [03:25] poz1: and you have a folder named Public? [03:25] poz1: and you have a folder named Public on the NAS correct? [03:25] pronounced like the girl in the movie series the hunger games [03:25] Yes, I think thats what its called [03:26] poz1: go visually confirm or double check what folders you have setup to be offered from this NAS [03:26] on windows its called "Public (\\CATNAS) (Z:)" [03:27] poz1: so yeah i'm %100 certain that is the NAS [03:27] [3038608.242500] audit: type=1400 audit(1546658773.868:259): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="snap.mjpg-streamer.mjpg-streamer" name="/dev/video0" pid=13166 comm="mjpg_streamer" requested_mask="wr" denied_mask="wr" fsuid=0 ouid=0 [03:27] poz1: in any event [03:27] how to remove this apparmor thing so it doesn't interfere with my wishes to run mjpeg from snap [03:28] Yes, it is the NAS. what is the best way to share screenshots on here?

[03:38] Thank you for your help tatertots [03:38] poz1: no prob [03:45] hello [03:46] i am looking anything like restore OS [03:47] For what purpose? [03:47] my current ubuntu having lots of issue [03:47] Are you looking to use a Live image of Ubuntu as a system recovery environment? It works quite well that way :) [03:47] Oh, you're looking for a function or 2 [03:48] Did you use the Backup and Restore tool to make a backup image of your system? [03:48] I'm backing up the remains of a broken Ubuntu. looks like something started to delete files until it managed to delete /bin/rm. any ideas how to trace the faulty program? syslog doesn't have anything in between the normal behavior and the failure. (successful cron job, then lots of error messages.) [03:50] Menzador, my backup system is not working in current stage [03:50] also I wonder, it looks like it deleted files by date rather than by name, spanning multiple ext3 partitions. so it's probably not just a mistaken argument to rm -r [03:52] Rockwood - There's an option to "Reinstall" from the Live image; that might be a good start. Be sure to back up your personal files elsewhere first [04:30] hi. when i restart, my resolv.conf changes nameserver 8.8.8.8 to nameserver 127.0.0.53. is there any way i can stop this? it prevents me from accessing the internet until i manually edit this each time === w1nd0wl1ck3r is now known as windowlicker [05:34] In my network settings, if I want to use a different DNS provider, do I enter the 2 ip addresses they use as comma separated?

I've installed my system from usb stick and for some reason it didn't install grub to the hdd, my system wont boot up without the usb stick plugged in. So how can I fix this? [10:01] plasmoduck: put grub on the hard disk [10:01] ikonia, whats the command? [10:02] it's a set of commands, if this is a clean install you'll find it easier to re-install and pay attention at the grub install part fo make sure it installs onto the right device rather than the USB [10:02] nah theres a bunch of stuff on here setup now [10:02] I was 2 days ago I done it [10:02] You got a good guide to the commands? [10:02] that seems foolish to continue setting up a system that doesn't boot properly [10:03] !grub2 [10:03] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [10:03] I tried $ sudo grub-install /dev/sda1 [10:03] plasmoduck: yeah, that's not going to work [10:03] plasmoduck: check out the retoregrub link, I appreciate you've not just installed windows but the process is the same [10:04] thnks [10:05] On here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub it says to do sudo grub-install /dev/XXX like I did [10:06] plasmoduck: yeah....it says to do more too [10:07] the second question is what device identifier is the usb disk [10:10] Okay I done it. [10:11] It was 'grub-install /dev/sda' [10:11] did what ? [10:11] Thats it [10:11] is it working now ? [10:11] now I can unboot? [10:11] what is the device identifier of the USB disk [10:11] I don't kow [10:11] then why are you typing sda [10:11] if you don't know [10:11] My hdd is /dev/sda [10:11] are you %101 sure of that ? [10:12] Yes [10:12] ok then [10:12] I done sudo fdisk -l and checked [10:12] if you're sure, I'm not going to doubt you [10:12] so then I ran sudo grub-install /dev/sda [10:12] shoukd that be it? [10:12] if that's all that was wrong it was missing from the mbr [10:12] thats all I need to do to fix grub> [10:12] ok [10:13] ill heck [10:25] hey ikonia it didnt work [10:25] I still need to boot from usb [10:25] shock horrr [10:25] horror [10:25] what am I missing? [10:26] what is the actual error you get [10:29] a bios error saying boot error [10:29] plasmoduck: ok - how many disks are in your system [10:29] Its the default message when there is no OS [10:29] 1 [10:29] .....so I suspect when the USB disk is plugged in, sda is not actually your hard disk [10:30] plasmoduck: can you paste 'sudo parted -ls' output? [10:30] no idea [10:30] as thats also the most common reason the installer fails to put grub on the mbr when the usb stick assumes that [11:00] ikonia, https://pastebin.com/2Sx9tfC2 [11:01] thats without the usb plugged in [11:02] I have this problem when making apt update on KDE Neon (it is ubuntu 18.04 based) https://pastebin.com/FZSL9idf [11:03] anybody understand what is taht?

[11:14] renn0xtk9, maybe, maybe not. either way it's off-topic in this room.

[12:13] check chrome's task manager to see if any of the pages you have open is using a lot of cpu [12:16] hm how come wine installer can create ico and shortcuts automatically but I can't find built-in utility to do that for existing exes?

[12:53] aqd, there is also a better method than ps | grep... kill $(pgrep -laf "nbd-client foo 1234 /dev/nbd0" | awk '{print $1}') [12:53] marginally shorter. [12:53] But of course nothing beats pkill --full [13:06] My disk usage shows as 93% available but processes fail to start citing no disk space. What's going on? https://i.imgur.com/JrGd15y.png [13:11] lots of loop back file systems there....are you running low on ram/open file descriptors [13:11] it's actually the forking of a new process that's failing [13:13] if you've got lots of small files you could be running low on inodes too which will stop writes from happening [13:18] i just installed (k)ubuntu 18.10 and i have an rx 470 GPU, i'm trying to get openCL working so i tried installing the opencl portion of the amdgpu-pro driver from AMD's website (they have instructions for that), but during the installation it failed with one of the packages saying it's only for 18.04 [13:18] so i edited /etc/os-release so that VERSION_ID is 18.04 instead of 18.10, hoping that the version check is simply there for redundancy rather than some deeper incompatibility, but as the installation was going along now, it failed to build the kernel module [13:18] my question is: is there a way to get openCL working on ubuntu 18.10 without the amdgpu-pro drivers? [13:19] Hey, i have some kind of driver/opencl/mesa/hardware support kinda issue and i don't really know who / where to ask or what to do really xD [13:20] what a coincidence, i'm here asking for amd drivers as well [13:20] when calling the command clinfo or trying to use my gpu for opencl application i wrote myself ( which work on different setup and hardware ) i get this error https://hastebin.com/kuwodejike.nginx [13:20] guys I have CUDA 9 installed on Ubuntu 16.04, how do I get CUDA 8 also installed on it? [13:20] jason0597, what is your issue maybe i can help ? been through those alot - my question is rather specific [13:20] its not allowing me to install 8 [13:21] says I got to first uninstall 9 [13:21] thyriaen: i'm on (k)ubuntu 18.10 and i need to get openCL support, but the amdgpu-pro drivers only support 18.04, so i don't know what to do [13:21] anyone? [13:21] anyone what ? [13:21] jason0597, you can use the open-source stack [13:22] jason0597, what is your gpu ? [13:22] rx 470 [13:22] is the open source stack preinstalled or do i need to get it from somewhere? [13:22] jason0597, then you should have no issue concerning the kernel version in 18.10 [13:22] jason0597, can you type clinfo and paste it to me ? [13:23] uh oh segfault when it runs [13:24] jason0597, are you using padoka ppa for mesa ? [13:24] nope [13:24] there is an stable and unstable version - one of them is here https://launchpad.net/~paulo-miguel-dias/+archive/ubuntu/pkppa/ [13:26] jason0597, that is just general drivers, now for opencl support you need 3 things as i can remember [13:26] jason0597, this is pretty good guide https://wiki.tiker.net/OpenCLHowTo [13:27] i tried installing just the opencl portion of the amdgpu-pro driver, but it gave me errors about it only supporting 18.04 [13:27] so i edited /etc/os-release in the hopes that it would trick it [13:27] but as the installation went through, it failed that the kernel module build [13:27] jason0597, is there any particular reason why you wnat to use the closed source amd stuff ? [13:28] it's just that, while i was on arch, the open source stuff was about 4 times slower in openCL [13:28] ah [13:28] if i can get open source openCL that's just as fast as it is on windows then i'll be ok [13:28] i'll try that guide [13:29] jason0597, i am not 100% sure about opencl - but opengl performance was better with open source ( both for me and as tested here : https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amdgpu-pro-1830&num=1 ) [13:29] jason0597, since december ( before i went on vacation ) amd released some open source opencl support stuff called Rocm [13:29] hmm interesting [13:29] jason0597, https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm you can see it here, [13:30] jason0597, the installation process is pretty nicely written and straight forward [13:30] jason0597, you can even choose if you want to use closed source kernel driver "ROCk" or not [13:31] jason0597, i can't really tell you 100% whats rocm is all about because i still have 1 issue there - i mean i got it installed but i still have an issue there , thats why i am here :) [13:31] i see [13:33] jason0597, but yea - ive been through the process 1 week ago - so just ask if you got a question - i think for you it will straight up work but it seems that for some reason my setup has problems with my rx vega since it seems to be missing one specific file for it [13:33] My disk usage shows as 93% available but processes fail to start citing no disk space. What's going on? https://i.imgur.com/JrGd15y.png [13:33] Hi. When I download some executable package from the internet, by default is does not have executable permission. Is there a workaround for this for the user? by zipping the files with executable permission ? [13:33] (in case it matters i'm trying to run this: https://github.com/zoogie/bfCL) [13:34] goiko i don't think you can zip a file and have it keep its permissions [13:34] if you want you can do "chmod +x " to make it executable [13:34] jason0597, thanks for your answer, I know [13:35] I am looking for a workaround, so the user don't have to call chmod +x [13:36] it's more about the file system it is put onto [13:36] the best way is to ship it as a proper packaged product [13:36] right, good point [13:41] was it pastebinit sumthin to write 'log' to a site where one can show errors to someone else ? [13:41] yup [13:42] goiko: I know that tar preserves permissions. [13:42] hi .. i have problem related to ubuntu 16.04 terminal.. [13:42] that will be overriden though depending on the file system and user it's extracted onto [13:43] thanks vlt, found https://askubuntu.com/questions/225865/copy-files-without-losing-file-folder-permissions [13:44] Hi guys, my WiFi stops working when I get back from suspend/hibernate. Tried all solutions from old askUbuntu threads, none worked. [13:44] I remember I fixed it a long time ago but after this fresh install it's back [13:44] On opening the terminal in ubuntu 16.04 the path shown is not of current directory.. can anyone help me out [13:45] nm-applet says "device not ready" [13:45] rollappuser1: What does it show instead? [13:45] Same happens with my Ethernet but modprobe -r and -i fixes it [13:46] Thanks...the path of home folder.. always [13:49] vlt: it shows the path of home folder instead of current directory path [13:50] rollappuser1: And what does `pwd` say about the current directory? [13:50] pwd shows the path of current working directory [13:51] rollappuser1: when did this start happening, did you make any changes which may have provoked this? [13:51] Hello. I have created a script for myself in /etc/init.d/mystuff and I want this to launch on every system reboot/start etc. [13:51] I don't know how to make this happen [13:51] What happened to runlevel? [13:52] Where is the rc config anymore? [13:52] Who tampered with Ubuntu? [13:52] Stop changing things! Old peopel get confused. [13:53] have a little research into systemd [13:53] it's been around for quite few releases [13:53] Who me? [13:53] yes [13:53] Ok hang out [13:53] tomreyn: I did not notice it earlier. I was not aware of this functionality of Ubuntu 16.04 [13:53] systemd is a suite of basic building blocks for a Linux system. It provides a system and service manager that runs as PID 1 and starts the rest of the system. [13:54] So this is like a new init system? [13:54] Interesting. [13:54] Nexilva: I'm aware of what it is [13:54] Nexilva: yes [13:54] Nexilva: if you know anything about technology. it's occasionally neccessary to replace technology by better or more modern one. you would not want to run drive a car from the last century, would you? [13:54] Nexilva: yes9but more) [13:54] yes, (but more) [13:54] I see [13:54] Whatever [13:54] !releasenotes | Nexilva [13:54] Nexilva: For release notes of a given Ubuntu release, please refer to the 'Docs' column on the 'List of releases' table at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [13:54] How to make systemd autostart my script? [13:55] release notes tell you about such potentially breaking changes [13:55] Nexilva: have a little reseaerch into it, there are a few ways [13:55] Nexilva: depends on how you want to approach it [13:55] https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.service.html# [13:55] I see. [13:55] I found this. [13:56] tomreyn: May i know the possible issue that could have lead in terminal [13:56] Ahh. I have to have my own service script and then add that to systemd sysctl thingy [13:56] rollappuser1: it is not a default behavour of ubuntu 16.04, something changed on your system. [13:56] I see. [13:56] Nexilva: that's one option [13:56] Nexilva: as I said there are a few ways to approach i [13:56] it [13:56] What are the other ones? [13:57] Nexilva: do a little research as I said [13:57] rather than just quickly google [13:57] systemd is pretty critical [13:57] I haven't the time to invest into that amount of research [13:57] I need a quick solution to this. [13:57] doubtful [13:57] Let's see. [13:58] I'll prove you wrong. [13:58]
