[00:00] as soon as I have it running again I can give you the link if you want lotuspsychje [00:00] gofio: We would like to ask that you stay in one channel for your help. Since you have been getting help in ##linux, it is better to stay with that group. They were able to take you this far, they are the most aware of your situation and what it took to get you up and running. [00:00] just wanted to know if could keep going in the process or had to do the livepatch better first [00:01] well they were into some other conversation and this was 110% ubuntu question pragmaticenigma [00:01] and as matter of fact pragmaticenigma your answer was right on point [00:06] im having some issues launching minecraft, i know this is ubuntu chat but as the issue is with ld.so im wondering if theres any packages i can install/reinstall to rememedy this issue. the error looks like so: === Senhara_ is now known as Senhara [00:06] Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-lookup.c: 111: check_match: Assertion..... [00:07] opilab: It is not something that we can support. Minecraft is supplied by Microsoft and they have setup forums and services for customer support. It's best that you seek help there as there is a better chance of someone having encountered the bug and what they did to fix it [00:17] hi === gofio_ is now known as gofio [01:07] window show 3 [01:08] hmm [01:10] why does gedit freeze so hard when opening files? I tried to open up a 1mb binary dump and it completely freezes the UI to where I have to sigterm it [01:12] nshirelaptop: because gedit isn't designed to open binary files. It is scanning the entire file to try and determine the character set of the characters. Since there are no markers, it tries all of them [01:14] any way to get it to just open it as plaintext without trying different charsets? [01:14] maybe better to just use a hex editor I guess [01:15] I was just a little surprised considering notepad in windows will throw pretty much anything you throw at it [01:15] *handle anything you throw at it [01:16] nshirelaptop: it's better to use a hex editor... gedit is meant for plain text... for a 1 MB file, it has to scan all 1,048,576 character blocks individually. Windows notepad doesn't do character interpretation, it always assumes it's a 128bit ASCII file [01:16] jeremy31, that was it, now I have video and can sudo startxfce4 but still seems wrong lol [01:19] donofrio_: "sudo startxfce4" leads to root owning your desktop and "you" are no longer authorized to access :( [01:25] Some one told me yesterday that intel had a propitiatory driver for the integrated graphics. I am just seeing if that is true because I am not seeing any in ubuntu's 3rd party driver app. [01:25] hmm [01:26] tacomaster: there is a driver produced by Intel, it is not for general usage however. It is distributed to OS makers to include with thier OSes, there is on advantage to installing it yourself. [01:26] *this is no advantage [01:26] * there is no advantage (my apologies I cannot seem to type tonight) [01:27] Krennic: Is there an Ubuntu support issue that the volunteers here can assist you with? [01:28] Ok because the main thing that I am seeing is really bad performance in the low end games that I used to be able to run in windows with 60+ fps. We are talking mostly logic games that don't have demanding graphics. In ubuntu I am getting barely movable graphics. [01:28] I would say I am getting around 5-10 fps [01:29] I understand that it may just be poorly written for linux but I am just covering my bases [01:30] tacomaster: there are a lot of factors. If the game is running through any sort of emulator, you're going to experience performance issues (many windows games run via wine) [01:30] linux native [01:30] The game is crusader kings 2 [01:31] It can be pretty cpu intensive but very light on the gpu [01:31] tacomaster: Crusader Kings 2 distributed by Steam? [01:31] Yes [01:32] tacomaster: Did you enable steam play? [01:33] I did but that was just mostly for other games. If I enable it on a global level will it try to run all games in the windows versions? [01:34] tacomaster: yes (I'm not aware of enabling it on a per game level) ... steam play is an emulation layer however. And the game you mentioned is only available for windows and mac, meaning that on linux it's using some sort of middle ware to run the game [01:35] I mean in a few weeks it will be a non issues because I am getting a gtx 1070 but I just didn't have the money up front [01:35] It is a native linux game I can show you [01:35] tacomaster: If you are going to upgrade the graphics capabilities, then I highly recommend that you wait for your new graphics card. Doing a bunch of tweaks now will mean you will have to remember what they were in case they interfere with the new graphics setup [01:36] tacomaster: I'm looking at the game right now, while it doesn't specifically say it, it is running via steam play. It was verified to work, which means the you don't have to enable it yourself [01:37] How the F do I disable the passwd prompt in LXDE? [01:37] It's driving me bananas, I'm about to just start using it as root. [01:37] pragmaticenigma: I was playing this game on linux before steam play was a thing [01:37] !ohmy | GalzuFromQ [01:37] GalzuFromQ: Please avoid any language that may be considered offensive, including acronyms and obfuscation of such - also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines || The main channels are English only, for other languages, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [01:38] I have a system requirements for linux in the steam client as well with the steam os logo [01:38] Is F a bad word? [01:38] Sorry. [01:38] I'm ex Army Infantry, I try and tone it down but it slips when I'm agitated. [01:39] pragmaticenigma: I just turned off steam play completely and I was able to get back into the game [01:40] GalzuFromQ: Consider this area a public park with small children and I think it'll help. As for the password prompt, are you asking to be able to automatically login? [01:41] Gotcha pragmaticenigma [01:41] pragmaticenigma, I would like to disable gksudo or what ever it is. [01:41] I can't even keep up anymore. [01:41] When I started using *NIX there wasn't sudo, or gksudo. === nllc-admin is now known as stv-rven [01:43] GalzuFromQ: the reason for the move to sudo and gksudo (gksudo is being slowly discontinued in favor of other methods) is to make it harder for someone malicious to gain access to your computer. Admittally, I get annoyed to, but once my machine is up and running I rarely have to use it [01:43] GalzuFromQ: May I ask what you are doing that requires being run as gksudo or with sudo? [01:43] I know the reason for it, I was just stating it wasn't around when I began. [01:44] You could make a group and user named TIMMAY and it'd do the same thing as sudo. [01:44] or you could install Kali and run it all as root [01:45] everything except chrome [01:45] Kali, lol. [01:45] OR, I could log into this Peppermint distro I'm using as root. [01:45] BUT, I KNOW there's a way to disable it. [01:45] tacomaster: looking at the system specifications for the game, it appears that they have tested and recommend AMD or nVidia graphics cards for that game for best performance. I believe that once you receive your new card, everything will be much better for you [01:46] GalzuFromQ: The short answer is, it isn't easy to disable. The usage of sudo and gksudo is now deeply rooted in Ubuntu and not made easy to circumvent [01:46] Lord. [01:46] GalzuFromQ: You can edit the sudo users file, to enable sudo to work without a password, but I don't think it applies to gksudo [01:46] Because adding the program to visudo isn't doing it. [01:47] This is what I've done https://pastebin.com/raw/dFMDksfu [01:49] Maybe I need to go to the #debian room. [01:49] GalzuFromQ: Did you uncomment the line in /etc/sudoers for looking in the other folder? [01:49] GalzuFromQ: #debian will send you right back here if you are running Ubuntu [01:50] pragmaticenigma, I did and it kicked back an error saying there was an error in the file. [01:50] GalzuFromQ: can you paste the error message for me please? [01:50] Hold. [01:51] pragmaticenigma, https://pastebin.com/raw/Vk8nnvbR [01:52] Crap, I should have logged in as root at term F1... [01:53] Yay, I was still logged in. [01:56] GalzuFromQ: In the past I've just done this in my sudo file: {user_to_nopass} ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL [01:57] GalzuFromQ: it's lazy, but it allows me to sudo anything when I need to [01:58] I haven't worked much with command alias or the other alias stuff before. That should get you further along. I'll have to readup on the alias parts [02:02] Ok pragmaticenigma [02:03] Bashing-om, I was unable to start it as my own user but as root xfce4 starts, how do I recover or 'off to the #xfce group' cause I've been lurking there for a few years now ;) [02:11] donofrio_: Who owns the desktop, from the F2 console what shows ' ls -al .ICEauthority .Xauthority ' ? === nat_ is now known as Natkeeran [02:25] Bashing-om, Ubuntu 18.04 fresh install on desktop..Error waiting for unattended uprg to exit..found /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50 unattended-upgrade..says to comment unattended-upgraded:: mail "root";..the comment are // rather than # how do i uncomment IT [02:28] texla: just remove the '//' . and save the file ( you did make a back up, right ?) . [02:28] hi [02:28] hi Boyette [02:29] i have a strange problem with filezilla application [02:29] if i type something in there i cant use backspace anymore to correct something.. also after a while the keyboard wont work at all anymore [02:29] the keyboard wont work anymore on filezilla or in general? [02:29] Bashing-om, I have not done anything yet waitingg for advise never had to deal with // before [02:29] only in filezilla [02:30] Boyette: what's your ubuntu verion? nc termbin.com 9999 < <(lsb_release -ds;cat /proc/{version,cmdline};echo "$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP ($XDG_SESSION_TYPE)";) [02:31] https://termbin.com/9oot [02:31] and filezilla version? apt list --installed filezilla [02:31] filezilla/bionic,now 3.28.0-1 amd64 [installed] [02:32] but when i start the filezilla application its 3.41.2 [02:32] so maybe you installed it as a snap? [02:32] texla: Ar you sure you need to do anything . how nuch time have you given "unattended-upgrade" to complete it's thing ? [02:32] i dont know how to update it it doesnt update automatically [02:32] so i always download the newest version from their website [02:33] I'm thinking about switching from Ubuntu to Arch Linux [02:33] !latest | Boyette [02:33] Boyette: 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. [02:33] ok [02:33] i.e. most of the time you don't need / want to have the latest version [02:33] but i was trying to fix this by updating to the latest version [02:33] but that also doesnt work [02:33] filezilla/disco 3.39.0-2 amd64 [02:34] Boyette: so you're saying the same thing happens on filezilla 3.28.0-1 ? [02:34] you're on [02:34] yes [02:34] oh nvm you're on Bionic [02:34] ignore me :P [02:34] ok [02:34] Bionic Beaver [02:34] Bashing-om, I waited approximately 30 minutes then went to synaptic and downloaded and back to software and it then downloaded 160 [02:34] Sorry been a long time since I have been using linux. I do remember that net-stat could be used to check open ports but it seems that ubuntu has decided to no longer use this. What is the command to replace it? [02:35] wait it was netstat [02:35] Boyette: let's try this: LANG=C ubuntu-support-status --show-unsupported | nc termbin.com 9999 [02:35] Boyette, you could try Filezilla from snap, it's on 3.39.0-2, see if it happens on that too [02:35] https://termbin.com/xukw [02:36] @ purplepod im already on 3.41.2 with snap [02:36] texla: From terminal what results ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade ' ? [02:37] Bashing-om, On my laptop now will have to try tomorrow sorry [02:37] Boyette: hmm, this doesn't look too bad. can you run filezilla (the 3.28.0-1 one) from a temrinal and post and output it prints there from the start till it breaks? [02:38] if i start it from terminal it starts 3.41.2 [02:38] texla: K - [02:38] dont know why it still list the old version in apps [02:38] Boyette: /usr/bin/filezilla [02:39] Boyette: /usr/bin/filezilla --version shoul dreport FileZilla 3.28.0, compiled on 2017-10-29 [02:39] no [02:39] it reports: [02:39] FileZilla 3.41.2 official build, compiled on 2019-03-18 [02:40] hmm and you ran it with the full path? [02:40] like this /usr/bin/filezilla ? [02:40] yes [02:40] j@HQ:~$ /usr/bin/filezilla --version [02:40] FileZilla 3.41.2 official build, compiled on 2019-03-18 [02:40] hmm maybe remove the snap temporarily [02:42] Boyette: also, since you seem to have some 3rd party repositories, can you also post this: sudo /bin/true && cat &>/tmp/aptlog < <(sudo apt-get -qqy update 2>&1; apt-cache policy 2>&1; sudo apt-get -syV full-upgrade 2>&1;); nc termbin.com 9999 i'd just like to see which they are [02:42] and whether they might have smuggled some problematic libs onto your system [02:43] https://termbin.com/958b [02:46] Hi. I have made a few changes in the file /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css. which I want to restore. I tried finding which package contains this file to reinstall it. But the dpkg -S command says "dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css [02:46] ". [02:47] Boyette: plenty of 3rd party repos. hopefully none of them installed some library which doesn't match with your system. [02:47] oh [02:47] what should we do now [02:48] Boyette: this is just a theory so far, there coul dbe other reasons. i suggested you temporarily remove the snap to be able to show the terminal output of filezilla [02:48] but you didn't respond to this, so i assume you prefer not to? [02:49] oh [02:49] i can do it if you can explain to me how :) [02:49] sudo snap remove filezilla [02:49] snap "filezilla" is not installed [02:51] Boyette: @ purplepod im already on 3.41.2 with snap [02:51] i thought it was snap [02:51] so one of you isnt telling the truth, either the Boyette now, or the Boyette from 15 minutes ago [02:51] but apparently its not [02:51] i was checking how i did that then [02:52] i used ubuntu-toolchain [02:52] Boyette: snap list shows installed snaps. [02:52] what do you mean by "i used ubuntu-toolchain"? [02:53] this is what i used to update filezilla [02:53] https://sam.azgor.com/upgrade-filezilla-on-ubuntu/ [02:53] and i downloaded the latest version here [02:53] https://filezilla-project.org/ [02:54] so you installed it from a ppa apparently. but you also say you downloaded it from the projects' website [02:54] i don't think i can follow [02:55] apt list --installed filezilla prints which version? did we have this before? [02:55] the ppa was just to install the correct version of libstdc++ [02:55] lol [02:56] that sounds like it would break lots of things [02:56] j@HQ:~$ apt list --installed filezilla [02:56] Listing... Done [02:56] filezilla/bionic,now 3.28.0-1 amd64 [installed] [02:56] Boyette: you really need to be careful with PPAs, there's a reason they're unsupported here [02:56] yes it is getting clear to me now [02:57] Boyette: 'upgrading' libstdc++ is a way to reliably break your system, possibly beyond repair [02:57] hmm [02:58] i notice this how-to you linkes even recommends installing "the right version of libstdc++.so.6". that's a bad recommendation, i'm afraid. [02:58] ok [02:58] what to do now? [02:59] also this how.to is for ubuntu 16.04, you have 18.04 [03:00] Boyette: dpkg -l libstd* | nc termbin.com 9999 [03:00] https://termbin.com/munuf [03:01] hmm those seem to be fine. [03:02] my issue is something similar like this: [03:02] https://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?t=38717 [03:02] but this is a topic from 2015.. you would not expect this in 2019 [03:02] Boyette: oh this sudo cp ... command is also pretty disastrous [03:03] your issue is that you followed a bad how-to which was also for a different ubuntu version, which had you replace important files on your computer [03:03] hmm [03:04] How do I find which package contains a particular system file? dpkg -S is not working for this file. [03:04] i'm trying to understand what was replaced, give me a minute [03:04] Boyette: ^ [03:04] ok [03:08] actually [03:08] Boyette: do you still have the filezilla copy you downloaded as per this how-to? [03:08] yes [03:08] Boyette: if you open it in an archive manager, you can look into directory FileZilla3 [03:09] in there are some subdirectories [03:09] FileZilla_3.41.2_x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.bz2 [03:09] yes, open it in an archive viewer [03:09] yes [03:09] bin / lib / share [03:10] right, you copied these directories and their contents to /usr/ [03:10] which is where some critical parts of ubuntu are installed, some of which were probably replaced. [03:11] you can now either go over these files in those subdirectories one by one, determine whether they were previously installed, and if so, reinstall their proper version from ubuntu, and if not, remove it. [03:11] or you can reinstall [03:12] sudo cp -ravx * /usr/ [03:12] this is what i did [03:12] correct [03:13] but actually [03:13] i found out something now [03:13] i can tell you how to "determine whether they were previously installed, and if so, reinstall their proper version from ubuntu", but just for one of those files, as an example, you'd need to do it for the others. [03:13] when i do this: [03:13] sudo ibus exit [03:13] the keyboard problem is fixed in filezilla [03:13] for the actual session [03:14] so you found a workaround for the immediate issue. but this doesn't fix the problem you created by this sudo command. [03:14] if its created by that [03:14] yes [03:14] or is it related to something else what exitting ibus is doing [03:15] it is not easy to tell whether the symptoms you're seeing are those of this problem or a different one. [03:15] ok [03:15] but i'd recommend to focus on the root cause, not the symptoms [03:15] so how to determine the proper versions [03:16] so the first direcoty you copied files from is "bin" [03:16] in there is a files "filezilla" [03:16] hi [03:17] Boyette: so you copied bin/filezilla to /usr/bin/filezilla, replacing a possibly previously existing "filezilla" file there [03:18] yes there is a file called filezilla in /usr/bin which was recently modified [03:18] Boyette: using the command "dpkg -S /usr/bin/filezilla" you can tell whether there is an ubuntu package installed which used to have a file at this location. [03:18] filezilla: /usr/bin/filezilla [03:19] Boyette: this comand will either output nothing at all, or the name of the package which originally placed a file at this location, and then the location again. [03:19] ok [03:19] in the latter case, as it is here, the "filezilla" package placed the /usr/bin/filezilla file there before you overwrote it [03:19] tomreyn, tomreyn Hey can you tell me why dpkg -S /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css is not giving me any package results? [03:20] Boyette: you should thus have this entire ubuntu package reinstalled. [03:20] ok how to do that? [03:20] Boyette: sudo apt install --reinstall filezilla [03:21] Boyette: this should replace the /usr/bin/filezilla file, so it'll get a different timestamp [03:21] sazawal: it's just a symlink on my system [03:22] sazawal: readlink -f /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css [03:22] tomreyn, Thanks [03:22] done [03:22] yes now it has date of october 2017 [03:23] Boyette: yes that's the original timestamp [03:23] Boyette: in the other situation, so if the dpkg -S ... command had not returned anything, the right thing to do now would have been to remove this file you were examining [03:23] so (don't run this now): sudo rm /usr/bin/filezilla [03:24] ok [03:24] when i start filezilla now [03:24] i get an error [03:24] Boyette: yeah don't , you have more files to clean up now [03:24] ah ok [03:24] whats next [03:25] well all the other files you see in the file archive viewer [03:25] anything inside and below of /FileZilla3/ [03:25] I am currently in a live session of Ubuntu and I am trying to get a tool to create a multiboot USB of linux distros. [03:25] 3 directories [03:25] bin [03:25] lib [03:25] share [03:25] in bin there is [03:25] filezilla [03:25] Boyette: yes, still the same [03:26] Boyette: you just got muted for sending too many new lines in a short time. [03:26] it'll be undone shortly. [03:27] Boyette: there's no need to describe the contents of these subdirectories, i have a copy on my screen. [03:27] ask your questions about the proicess if you have any [03:27] ok so in bin directory there is filezilla/fzputtygen/fzsftp/fzstorj [03:27] ah ok [03:27] whats next [03:28] you iterate over these files, doing what we did for the "filezilla" file [03:28] either reinstall the apt package, if any, or delete the file you copied to /usr/... [03:28] i just explained this part ;) [03:29] ok [03:29] your other option is still to reinstall [03:29] either way, keep in mind not to do this agai [03:29] n [03:30] if you download some software from some website as an archive file or executable, you're most likely doing something wrong [03:30] ok [03:31] the other packages are not installed [03:31] just only filezilla [03:31] that is, until you have more experience, later it can make sense in some situations. but for now, you really should avoid this. [03:31] ok [03:32] so fzsftp was not installed? [03:32] no [03:32] yes, it was [03:32] all the others were not installed [03:32] i checked all others in the bin [03:32] same result [03:32] gives unable to load package [03:33] locate [03:33] sorry [03:33] you have two more subdirectories to go [03:34] and i'll be gone now, good luck.

Sometimes on boot if I am not connected to my home network the nfs shares in fstab causes my computer to take ages to start. Is there a way to put a time limit on the entry in fstab? So that if nothing happens it just times out? [05:05] ashley_: use 'nobootwait' as a option in those drives via fstab [05:05] mouses, Thanks. I will give it a go. [05:05] ashley_: can confirm it works in ubuntu, but some distros do it different [05:05] depending what you are running, it may be 'nofail' [05:19] mouses, That has worked thanks :) [05:19] ashley_: always glad to help when I can :3 === gms is now known as Guest88934 [05:51] Hi :) [05:52] Is there a way to force ubuntu not to use pinentry-gtk ? I am trying to build a package from ssh, but get an error saying gpg-agent is unable to receive key. [05:53] However, it works well when running from a terminal. So I figured out that it's because pinentry-gtk is called (and as it cannot be run from CLI, it fails). Is there a way to disable this behaviour? [05:56] hi === pablo777 is now known as pufdaddy === pufdaddy is now known as lllcxz === lllcxz is now known as NobodywuvsMe [06:24] hello [06:25] talk [06:26] done [06:26] Just install (reinstalled) a new Ubuntu 18.04 OS on sdb (2nd SSD), along side Windows 10 (sda; 1st SSD), but it is no longer booting into grub2.

That is exactly where I am. I have this message: https://paste.opensuse.org/view//19877841 [06:30] Clutz: never fixed that manually, but boot-repair should do it for you - others here might be more helpful if you want to do it manually [06:30] mouses, Okay. I appreciate it [06:30] Clutz: windows loves to overwrite boot things and destroy grub from time to time to keep you on your toes :) [06:31] hi *verse [06:31] hello, i want to use 2 ip at the same time, one public 85.x and one private 192.168.x, can someone help?

Already had Windows 10 on here, decided to reinstall Ubuntu to fix an issue from a stupid PPA [06:32] mouses, Even stranger, GPARTED shows the partition right next to Ubuntu where it belongs [06:32] Clutz: yeah, your EFI is hosed and I can't even pretend to understand EFI lol [06:32] Rembo: On the same interface? [06:32] mouses, https://imgur.com/a/EDrGWOZ [06:33] mouses, yes [06:33] Rembo: looks like https://askubuntu.com/questions/547289/how-can-i-from-cli-assign-multiple-ip-addresses-to-one-interface will steer you to where you want to be [06:34] http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/bztWJHYX7V/ [06:35] sdb1 has Grub on it, but won't isn't booting Grub [06:41] So I was able to encrypt the USB HDD with LUKS and ext4 but opening the drive requires sudo. How do I stop that requirement? Anyone with the password should be able to unlock the device, right? How do I make that happen? [06:51] hi [06:52] I have had my grub messed w by a winblows update [06:53] one time, a truecrypt volume was corrupted after a win update. win* is very invasive, destructive [06:54] that's why I don't run the two on the same device [06:54] yep. as far as you not wanting to require sudo for your *crypted usb...tough one [06:55] idk [06:55] There's one them I don't even use so that makes it easier to me. I don't play games, why would I even use windoze? [06:55] ive been wanting to know same [06:55] have a different drive run GRUB and choose your boot in BIOS on which device to boot [06:56] thats my setup [06:57] so about sudo...it took me some reading to learn the syntax for editing sudoers file [07:01] good thought, thanks [07:01] but its powerful...one can give a group a lmtd set of cmds and members of thzt group can do *SOME* priviledged things..

[07:35] andre144k: add 'nofail' to the mount options [07:36] ducasse, merci !! ill have a look :) [07:40] andre144k: it will prevent the boot from hanging if the filesystem cannot be mounted === mike__ is now known as isr60 [08:06] ducasse, hmm nofail seems to be only disable message on disply [08:12] help [08:12] join [08:12] solve [08:13] fix terminal] [08:13] sudo update [08:33] Hello Guys, I have a problem with my Ubuntu 18.04. I have a nightly build of node (v13.0.0-nightly2019042580c0b89bbb). [08:33] How can I get it to the normal channel as NPM cannot run properly with this nightly build and wants me to "upgrade" [08:33] The latest stable evrsion is 12.0 [08:36] Anyone can help me with that? [09:17] how can I find the module/driver behind a device? === chb is now known as Guest22528 [09:17] For example when I do "lsusb" I see a record for one of my USB device, now I would like to find a module which serves that device, how to find it? === Ahnberg_ is now known as Ahnberg [09:36] mra90: lsusb -t will show modules [09:37] jeremy31: in "Driver" column? [09:37] and what is a difference between driver/module then? [09:37] Hi people of the internet! I've got a (hopefully) short question. How can I make notepad++ running with wine the default text editor? [09:37] mra90: a kernel module is a driver [09:40] how can I figure out the ipv6 address that is globally unique within my local network? [09:42] jeremy31: thanks [09:44] jeremy31: but what is a difference bwteeen "lsusb -t" and "lsmod | grep usb"? [09:44] both commands return different usb modules [09:46] mra90: lsmod | grep usb will just show loaded modules that have usb in the module name, not all modules for usb have usb in the name [09:47] jeremy31: yes but what is a difference between these loaded modules and kernel drivers for usb then? [09:51] mra90: I am not sure what you are asking, are you having issues with a USB device? === CIass7 is now known as Class7 [10:14]
