[00:11] stevehendo34: btw, the resoults you'd get from that search are articles about doing it your own, not 1-click anything :) [00:11] Hi! I recently installed ubuntu 18.04 [00:11] But my speaker are not working [00:11] Gerowen, the former [00:11] In settings there is only headphones, which by the way are not plugged [00:12] !sound | qwebirc95537 [00:12] qwebirc95537: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.

[01:12] no i need help using it i see 1. 2. 3. 4 on left hand side to the channels im on how do i toggle between them [01:12] I'm curious how narrow the scope of this channel is [01:12] Brainiack: https://weechat.org/doc/ [01:12] like ##windows is strictly about Windows, not the apps you can run on it [01:12] jcotton: Ubuntu desktop support. [01:13] is this one a bit more relaxed? [01:13] Brainiack, there's a weechat channel on freenode [01:13] ^^^^ [01:13] cool thanks auk [01:13] il want to stay in here tho cause i just installed ubuntu [01:13] # /join #weechat [01:13] i think its pretty stable compared to the version of ubuntu i ran a decade ago [01:13] Brainiack, cool :) i dont use weechat or id try to answer your question [01:14] ... oh god 9.04 was nearly a decade ago [01:14] * jcotton feels old [01:14] says i cant talk in weechat [01:14] is there any way to like, monkeypatch DNS?

[01:17] Brainiack: root does not have credentials [01:17] leftyfb: he said he tried other accounts [01:17] i set the password for root account in ubuntu [01:17] using passwd [01:17] raidghost: that's not a support question. [01:17] Brainiack: what version of ubuntu? [01:18] oKEy then. Thanks [01:18] leftyfb its the latest [01:18] leftyfb its the latest [01:19] 18.04 i think [01:19] let me check [01:19] Brainiack: lsb_release -sa [01:19] Brainiack: 18.04 is not "the latest".

[01:20] Brainiack: how did you install ssh? [01:22] leftyfb i was at work when trying to install sshd but it wasnt open ssh [01:22] Brainiack: do you currently have access to the machine you're troubleshooting? [01:22] it put a config file in etc/ssh/ [01:22] Brainiack: you're not supposed to put anything in /etc/ssh. The files that are there are all that is needed [01:23] Brainiack: do you want help or not? [01:23] it had comments in the config file i took off the # to make the comments active [01:23] Brainiack: do you currently have access to the machine you're troubleshooting? [01:23] yes [01:23] Brainiack: how did you install ssh? [01:23] let me find the tut i was following [01:25] sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config === Tacko is now known as mouses2 [01:25] http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/04/enable-ssh-ubuntu-16-04-lts/ [01:25] i was following this === the2048 is now known as satan [01:26] the machine im working on now is fresh install of ubunutu [01:26] Brainiack: ok, what exactly did you change in /etc/ssh/sshd_config? === satan is now known as the2048 [01:26] nothing now its reverted [01:26] Brainiack: ok, and did you install ssh? [01:26] just now as per the command that was posted [01:26] sudo apt install openssh-server [01:26] yes === mouses2 is now known as Taco [01:27] Brainiack: ok, what error message do you see if /var/log/auth.log when you try to ssh in? tail -f /var/log/auth.log # watch this as you try to login [01:27] ok let me save this so i can run to my windows machine and attempt [01:27] Brainiack: you can also just ssh from the same machine to the same machine === the2048 is now known as _ === _ is now known as Beelzebub === Beelzebub is now known as InvertedJesus [01:28] tail -f /var/log/auth.log # <--- like this [01:28] don't need the # a the end [01:30] ok [01:30] it worked [01:30] what worked? [01:30] bam that was awesome but how do enable x11 fowarding [01:31] the ssh session [01:31] i logged in [01:31] Brainiack: so you didn't actually have a problem? [01:31] and it worked [01:31] well yes i wasnt using correct ssh server app [01:31] Brainiack: why did you think you had a problem? Type your credentials in incorrectly? [01:31] Brainiack: what "ssh server app" were you using? [01:32] no idea but it wasnt open ssh im gonna have to install open ssh the other app for what ever reason wasnt accepting any of my user credentials [01:32] how can I see my CPU temps? [01:32] i was connecting the the remote host in putty via IP address [01:32] does that matter at all [01:32] jcotton: sensors [01:32] cause right now i used the client to connect to itself using the word localhost [01:32] leftyfb: uh, is that the package name? [01:33] Brainiack: http://laptops.eng.uci.edu/software-installation/using-linux/configure-ubuntu-for-x11-forwarding # first result on google for "ubuntu x11 forwarding" [01:33] jcotton: yes [01:33] oh it's in lm-sensors (wat why) [01:33] leftyfb have these google searches been tested because i used google search earlier and was unsuccessful or are these just the first thing your c&p on here [01:33] jcotton: oh, sorry. sensors is the binary [01:34] yeah [01:34] chilling at 30C [01:34] Brainiack: my first question to you is, are you attempting to do X forwarding from your Windows machine? [01:34] yes [01:35] i want to launch linux apps in windows thru the ssh client [01:35] Brainiack: you do know that it won't work correct? Windows does not run an X server [01:35] you can get one [01:35] i prefer VcXsrv [01:35] Brainiack: you have a LONG way to go before you should even think about taking those certification tests [01:36] jcotton: yes, but well beyond the scope of this channel. I has absolutely zero to do with Ubuntu or Linux. [01:36] leftyfb everyone has to start some where i have the linux pocket guide essential commands and a few other books [01:36] but mainly trial and error [01:36] i already hold 4 Comptia certifications [01:36] linux+ is comptia cert [01:37] i have my heart set on it and plan to study for a year before taking it [01:38] i saw a demonstration of someone running linux gui apps on a windows machine with a headless linux machine and putty ssh client with the linux machine running sshd [01:38] it worked as far as i could see [01:38] the ran nautalus and bam came up in windows looks exactly as it does in linux [01:38] they* [01:39] Brainiack: they ran a third part Windows compatible X server on Windows. Completely offtopic here [01:40] in the demonstrating they just used linux , sshd , windows and putty x11 fowarding [01:40] no mention of whatever x server is but i dont know maybe that is so [01:40] Brainiack: Windows does not run an X server natively [01:41] Brainiack: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/0596007604 This book helped me get started [01:41] Brainiack: I suggest getting that or some other book(s) like it to learn the fundamentals on linux and linux distributions and software [01:42] i got plenty of linux books will add this one to my collection if it isnt too old [01:42] Brainiack: you need (as lefty already said) a X server on Windows. Hummingbird, or X from Cygwin, or other offering === Unlock is now known as VieYang [01:43] maybe if i can post the demonstration on youtube so you can see they dont use x-server at least they dont mention it maybe in fact they are using [01:43] maybe they do who knows [01:44] i seen windows run cygwin [01:44] (and the Linux machine will not be quite headless. It will have to have *at least* xterm and some X libraries) [01:44] Brainiack: not only will it not be accurate if they insist they're not running an X server, but it's completely offtopic here. Go to ##windows for help with it. [01:44] headless just means without monitor and keyboard etc.. [01:44] ^and there is that. Sorry, leftyfb [01:45] thanks for the book citation, leftyfb [01:45] is ther any way to move the left taskbar to the bottom of the screen vs the left in ubuntu [01:45] there is an ubuntu question [01:45] :D [01:45] lol [01:45] Brainiack: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/0596007604 [01:45] ugh [01:45] hold on [01:45] Brainiack: https://extensions.gnome.org/ [01:46] Brainiack: search there for some good gnome extensions that will help you modify gnome shell [01:46] thanks im gonna trick out my ubuntu thanks leftyfb lots of help [01:46] :D [01:47] the site says im not running a copy of gnome [01:47] or at least not detected [01:47] does that matteR? [01:48] Brainiack: which browswer? [01:50] Brainiack: https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeShellIntegrationForChrome/Installation [01:50] chrome [02:07] Brainiack: do you actually run gnome-shell, which ubuntu version? [02:18] ola [02:34] Hello, I forgot how to check IRC chat history, what is the URL please? Thanks in advance ... [02:36] Mr_Cyclops: Latest ? : https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/latest/%23ubuntu.txt , [02:39] Bashing-om, thanks, I was looking for irclogs.ubuntu.com :) but thanks for the latest link too, appreciate it [02:41] Mr_Cyclops: :) http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2019/03/ . [03:02] 好 [03:07] I finally confront with my manager :) [03:10] is ubuntu safe to browse? [03:10] Do i need norton antivirus installed? [03:15] Hulio: install updates, then it's usually safe. you can add a sandbox if you prefer. [03:15] antivirus only needs to be used when you use unofficial product. [03:16] !virus | Hulio [03:16] Hulio: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using Samba). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [03:16] if you have retail you have official product. unless it's counterfeit [03:16] even if it comes from a repo where did it's source come from despite it being in the repo [03:16] denpark: a counterfeit virus scanner for linux? [03:17] you can look at the source code and compile it and disassemble the rest of the operating system [03:17] if you know how to code [03:18] umm, ok [03:18] a virus manipulates function [03:19] can a outside company sell a virus ? [03:19] no one can get microsoft on the phone no matter who they are [03:19] Virii are sold for sure [03:19] BUT [03:19] that used to be similar to redhat who is owned by russia [03:19] denpark: please stop, this channel is really only about ubuntu support [03:19] sometimes a firewall has to have entropy for it to be useful -- as theory [03:19] Linux isn't very suspect to viruses due to its design [03:19] you can discuss what anyone can do about viruses in #ubuntu-offtopic [03:20] the reason viruses were created is because all counties want retail products [03:20] denpark please [03:20] #ubuntu-offtopic for this [03:22] if there are 4 types of addictive music does it lead to slack ? [03:22] sorry [03:22] they took our jobs [03:22] wat [03:22] no [03:22] Music can't affect jobs or slack [03:23] But if you want to banter, use ##chat or #ubuntu-offtopic [03:24] you all chown and chmod all the time ? [03:25] is there a chmod that cannot be taken away that is a linux source "tool" ? [03:25] i wonder if coding to those you care about is possible [03:26] heading different places. example. original gnu 2 was not restricted by purchase [03:26] denpark: do you understand what InvertedJesus and I are telling you? [03:26] you did not signal the reich [03:27] hwat [03:27] we don't understand, nor do you [03:27] the "reich" still exists? [03:28] the "reich" would result in you getting kicked from certain channels [03:28] they're gone, we can get back to ubuntu support now. [03:28] Good [03:42] Hi all. A recent update to the kernel in 16.04 LTS broke virtualbox, which going by the bug report people decided to fix by patching the virtualbox package. Only problem is that it also affects parallels for which there's no fix :( I guess my question is where do I file bugs against the kernel for a given release? [03:45] hello [03:47] i am having a problem with audio output over Displayport/hdmi on a Lenovo thinkpad L420 [03:48] I am unable to get the audio to go over the hdmi audio [03:48] I am not sure where to start [03:49] I am fairly new to linux, as a mac user. I would appreciate any help I can get [03:53] !sound | Ylany [03:53] Ylany: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - https://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. [03:53] That would be my first thing to do [03:54] hey chat. my bluetooth headphones went down and now the bluetooth settings toggles between bluetooth turned off and no bluetooth found. it's mobo bluetooth that's worked for a long time. any ideas? [04:03] what is it meant by sandbox? [04:03] i heard that term alot in IT [04:03] so what is sandbox? [04:03] hello [04:04] Hulio, this contains some info on sandbox (https://docs.ubuntu.com/core/en/guides/intro/security) confined restrictive security 'sandbox' .. [04:05] i google up....this is what it came with: a shallow box or hollow in the ground partly filled with sand for children to play in. [04:05] a sandbox: a shallow box or hollow in the ground partly filled with sand for children to play in. [04:05] is anyone here familiar with audio output from displayport to hdmi? i am unable to get my audio output [04:05] guiverc, i look up google and show: a sandbox = a shallow box or hollow in the ground partly filled with sand for children to play in. [04:05] if that doesn't help Hulio , a quick search should find other examples.. :) the children's sandbox is where it comes from; it's supposed to stop an infected-app in sandbox from touching/impacting the host OS [04:06] like the sandbox is supposed to keep the sand inside itself (stop sand getting everywhere with kids; good luck with that!) - the sandbox is supposed to protect other sandboxes running on the host system & the host itself [04:07] guiverc, continue googling and found a sandbox =a virtual space in which new or untested software can be run securely. [04:08] i am new to this type of audio interface. I have a lenovo thinkpad l420 with displayport and the audio is coming from the laptop, not from the speakers connected to the secondary display. can anyone help me? [04:11] hi guys, im trying to delete a dir but i'm getting "Read-only file system" [04:12] gambl0r3, read-only file system (assuming you didn't intentionally mount it that way) usually means there is an issue with the fs; ie. it needs checking (fsck) or was in a unclean state (eg. win10 fast-boot enabled) etc.... [04:12] how to config snap loop [04:13] Ylany, I can't help (no experience with it sorry), but `pavucontrol` would be the first place I'd look for a solution; if you haven't looked there [04:14] guiverc: i am not sure how to use pavucontrol [04:14] would you be willing to help me? [04:15] pavucontrol = pulese audio volume control; if you can get it open, I thought it was rather intuitive , opening it to look [04:16] guiverc: my audio device is not present in pavucontrol [04:17] guiverc: more precisely, the displayport/hdmi is not present in in pavucontrol [04:17] Ylany, maybe you should `sudo lshw -C sound | pastebinit` (list-hardware of class sound, sending output to pastebinit) or confirm it is recognized there [04:18] I'd hope you could see it in the "output devices" tab. [04:18] gambl0r3: What have you done that the file system has gone into a protection mode ? Does a fsck from a liveDVD/USB have a positive affect ? [04:19] Ylany, also ensure you have "Show: All Output Devices" too, otherwise you may miss some [04:19] guiverc: forgive me, I am very new to linux. [04:20] how do I show all output devices? [04:20] in the Output Devices tab in pavucontrol, at the bottom I see a "Show:" option, which has a drop-down-select where i've selected "All Output Devices" [04:21] ps: my release (& desktop) may different from your release Ylany, so what you see may be slightly different [04:21] yes, i understand [04:22] wow there is a large list [04:22] it is somewhat overwhelming [04:23] I am on the configuration tab and when I click the profile pulldown, i am presented with a lot of information [04:24] Bashing-om, i did nothing [04:24] OH! I got it working!! [04:24] haha! I feel smart [04:24] lol [04:24] Ylany, i expected your answer to be in "output devices" tab, but if that didn't help profile is where I would have sent you next.. Well done Ylany :) [04:25] Bashing-om, i'm just trying to delete some old folders [04:25] gambl0r3: Ouch, then the more reason to run a file system check and see what fsck reveals. [04:25] guiverc: there is such a steep learning curve for AV in linux [04:25] lol [04:26] I greatly appreciate you help [04:27] You're most welcome Ylany :) [04:27] Bashing-om, how do i do that? [04:27] how do i know which partition to run fsck on? [04:28] gambl0r3, the partition that is read-only may be what I'd start on. [04:28] im new to linux, how do i even check that [04:28] gambl0r3: 1st step is to know what the target is, Show us in a pastebin ' sudo fdisk -lu ' so we can direct where fsck is to operate. [04:29] Bashing-om, https://pastebin.com/XdXgbqwp [04:32] gambl0r3: So we are looking at a system with a single hard drive and with linux installed on the 2nd partition. Next now is to boot up a liveDVD/USB and operate ;) [04:32] why are there 2 partitions? [04:32] is that common? [04:33] gambl0r3: The 1st is the partiton containing the boot code. [04:33] can i just simply run fsck /dev/sda2 on my machine? [04:33] or run 'fsck /dev/sda' directly? [04:35] gambl0r3: Nope .. the file system has to be "not in use" .. what one can do in lieu of a live environment is to run a rudimentary file system check from the grub boot. Will try a simple fix there and advise you if manual intervention is required. [04:36] Bashing-om, ok. also sometimes my computer boots into initrmfs. it happens maybe once a month [04:36] why does it do that? [04:37] and running fsck usually fixes the issue [04:37] gambl0r3: Corrupted fiile system most likely now. [04:37] gambl0r3: And if ya have to do this more than twice, I would suspect a failing drive. [04:38] it's brand new. less than a year old. [04:38] is there some software that can check the health of my sdd? [04:38] gambl0r3, corrupt file system can occur for many reasons, power off without shutdown, failing device (as Bashing-om said), dropped (if laptop) etc... [04:38] sometimes i had to force shutdown [04:39] that couldve been why [04:39] gambl0r3: Yup .. Forced shut down can cause that . [04:40] !sysrq | gambl0r3 [04:40] gambl0r3: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing slowly, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key [04:40] if initrmfs pops up, is that smething i should be worried about [04:40] Bashing-om, usually my computer is completely frozen and i cant do anything [04:41] gambl0r3: Well, yeah .. means grub has issues finding the kernel ( corruoted file system ??).. [04:41] gambl0r3, if you need to shutdown; magic sysrq keys can help (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key) which will cause reboot; you can poweroff safely when you see machine reboot.. otherwise you should fsck after forced powerdown (just to be safe) [04:41] Howdy, I tried to install ubuntu to my hard drive and when i pulled the USB when prompted, it never hooted correctly, im runnung dban to restart with a clean disk, any tips?? [04:41] booted** [04:42] guiverc, ive tried typing those keys whenever my computer freezes but my keyboard doesnt even respond [04:42] qwebirc6037, when your Ubuntu on thumb-drive starts & you see something-in-rectangle + person-in-circle I'd suggest hitting a key so you can verify-install-media .. it takes only a short while but saves hours of diagnosis if you have trouble.. [04:43] What key would that be? Im new to linux [04:43] any key - i use space as easy to find [04:43] ok [04:44] Any other tips on what i can do to ensure the boot?? [04:45] should i partition drive space for better managment? [04:46] qwebirc6037: Well, the default is for the installer to install to the 1st hard drive it identifies, There are times that the timing makes that 1sr device seen as the USB device, And guess where the boot code gets installed to ? [04:48] qwebirc6037: usage dtermines how the drive is partitioned. Give it some time to see how you use the system and then take acction - if any. [04:55] my computer is stuck on the splash screen after booting into initrmfs and running fsck on my /dev/sda2 [04:57] gambl0re: Fow did you set ' sck.mode=force ' ? [04:57] gambl0re, be patient, fsck (file system check) can take awhile esp. if partition is large, or loads of errors. I'd suggest giving it plenty of time if running [04:57] fsck already completed [04:57] then i did a 'reboot' [04:58] i just did a force shutdown. i'm currently at the GRUB screen [05:01] any ideas guys? [05:01] gambl0re: Then we boot a liveDVD/USB and try and fix from there. [05:02] ok. i got live usb running. now what? [05:02] Bashing-om, i got liveusb running. what do you want me to do? [05:03] gambl0re: In the liveUSB terminal run ' sudo fsck /dev/sda2 ' . If errors we go deeper. [05:04] i ran that already. there were no errors [05:04] there were errors i mean but fsck fixed them [05:04] now what do you what do you want me to do? [05:05] gambl0re: And rebooted to a grub rescue prompt in the install ? [05:05] yes [05:05] i dont know what you mean by GRUB rescue but it says GNU GRUB version 2.02 at the top [05:05] with 3 options [05:05] Ubuntu, Advance options for Ubuntu, System setup [05:06] gambl0re: Well, then one can re-install grub .. but I do not have the experience in a GPT environment to direct you properly. [05:06] wow ok [05:06] thanks [05:07] gambl0re: "Ubuntu, Advance options for Ubuntu, System setup" I do not recognize the option " System setup ". That in NON-grub. [05:09] System Setup just loads the computer's bios [05:12] Bashing-om, this is what a Grub bootloader looks like just FYI. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/grub2-in-ubuntu.jpg [05:14] gambl0re: Ho kay .. and if you hightlight 'ubuntu" and press the enter key - what happens ? [05:15] it tries to load ubuntu but then it gets stuck a the logo screen [05:19] Bashing-om, make sense? [05:20] Bashing-om: os-prober will automatically add "System Setup" on UEFI booting systems [05:20] tomreyn, i dont think Bashing-om even understands what GRUB is [05:20] tomreyn: Thanks ! My non-experience shows :) [05:21] lol [05:21] i was receiving help from a beginner?... [05:21] gambl0re: i'm sure Bashing-om knows what grub is [05:23] gambl0re: Google 'Bashing-om' and see if your confidence increaces :) [05:30] Hi, does anyone know of a repository for 12.04 and/or 16.04 for update gcc/gdb tools? [05:30] Currently, I'm building them from scratch but was wondering if there's a better way. [05:31] Bashing-om: actually this is added by grub itself based on /etc/grub.d/30_uefi-firmware - not os-prober, sorry. [05:32] computerquip: only Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is supported here, 12.04 has been unsupported for the past couple years. [05:32] computerquip: most ubuntu releases provide co-installable gcc versions as debian packages via apt. [05:34] past two years to be precise [05:34] !ppa | computerquip [05:34] computerquip: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge [05:37] Yeah, seems that building the packages myself is the best bet. Guess I'll have to learn the package format for aptitude after all these years. [05:38] deb / dpkg, not apt, not aptitude [05:46] hmm, I'm trying to figure out how to execute commands on startup in lubuntu and I'm having difficulty [05:47] I must be misunderstanding [05:48] so far, I've got /etc/rc.local with 777 perms, and no contents except #!/bin/sh -e on the first line and a command I want to run on the second line. [05:49] ./etc/rc.local executes the command just fine. [05:49] erm [05:49] sorry, that syntax is apparently invalid [05:50] cd'ing over to /etc and then doing ./rc.local works fine [05:50] 777 on /etc/rc.local is a security issue, you don't want this.
