[19:38] <hallyn> jsalisbury: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/   points to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Release , which does not exist
[19:54] <hallyn> hm, lxd network under hwe kernel on xenial seems busted?
[19:54] <hallyn> maybe i messed up something else, still comparing...
[20:27] <hallyn> jjohansen: running linux-generic-hwe-16.04 on a xenial host.  it doesn't have the apparmor stacking fix?
[20:28] <hallyn> is there a scheduled release of thatkernel with that fix?
[20:32] <hallyn> do i have to wait until august?
[20:34] <hallyn> oh should i use -edge?
[20:36]  * hallyn tries
[20:37] <hallyn> prolly living on the edge at this point
[20:54] <hallyn> no even that doesn't fix it.
[20:55] <hallyn> jjohansen: stgraber: do you know of a list that woudl show which kernels for xenial would have the apparmor ns fix ?
[20:55] <hallyn> looking for that plus namespaced filecaps (else i'd just stick with 4.4)
[20:55] <hallyn> i'm surprised hwe-16.04-edge doesn't work
[20:55] <stgraber> oh right, you're hitting the broken ns support because of empty label thing again
[20:56] <hallyn> right.  is that fix only going into artful and bionic?
[20:58] <stgraber> it should go everywhere once it finally lands...
[20:58] <stgraber> want the ugly workaround until then?
[20:59] <stgraber> echo lxd-$(hostname) > /root/ns
[20:59] <stgraber> mount --bind /root/ns /sys/kernel/security/apparmor/.ns_name
[20:59] <stgraber> systemctl restart apparmor
[20:59] <stgraber> hallyn: ^ I said it's ugly :)
[21:03] <TJ-> wow! thanks stgraber I have been wondering about that one as well
[21:07] <hallyn> stgraber: I'm wondering when "whenit finally lands" will be :)
[21:08] <hallyn> hm, what would be the easiest way to automated that.
[21:08] <hallyn> i guess a systemd service in the images :(
[21:09] <hallyn> thanks stgraber i guess i'll go that route :)
[22:30] <jjohansen> hallyn: hrmmm, I'll have to dig, I did send the fix to the kt
[22:38] <hallyn> jjohansen: thx, here's hoping it goes in soon :)
[22:38] <hallyn> for now i've just updated the lxd images to add a startup job with stgraber's fix
[22:46] <jjohansen> hallyn: it seems to have been dropped, probably in one of the many rebases during the whole spectre/meltdown mess
[22:46] <jjohansen> I will resend
[22:48] <hallyn> cool, thanks


[01:16] <tapas> hi
[12:28] <Keybuk> heh
[12:28] <Keybuk> I thought people used IRC bouncers to avoid disconnecting from IRC :p
[12:35] <thom> they're called bouncers for a reason :P
[12:39] <Keybuk> BOUNCY! BOUNCY! BOUNCY! BOUNCY!


[09:38] <Andy80> jelmer, uhm.... I was thinking about it because at least I would have an automatic backup
[09:38] <Andy80> instead of reling on a single server
[09:38] <jelmer> Andy80: it's probably sufficient for that - but you can't really use dropbox if you want to collaborate with other people
[09:38] <jelmer> because they might get weird errors from bzr if they try to access the repository while it is being updated
[09:39] <Andy80> jelmer, it makes sense :)
[09:44] <mgz> also, if dropbox is doing a background autoupdate, it can break your local operations on your repo
[09:54] <Andy80> mgz, oh right.... uhm....then it's really not reliable

[17:12] <daftykins> i would say life happened
[17:12] <testerde> why are so many packages configured newly? header update of linux.. but why do they need to re-configure then?

[17:32] <malgorath> Hello, I have an acer aspire 7750G laptop with 8G Ram, i5 dual core, with a 240G SSD main drive.  I can run windows 7 fine on the laptop with no issues, my problem comes when I try to install 14.04.1 ubuntu.  After about 5 seconds after the login screen comes up, it locks the whole system. any idea what could be the issue or how to fix this?  I reinstalled windows 7 for now but would love to have ubuntu instead
[17:32] <malgorath> oh it has a AMD Radeon 6650M Video with 1GB dedicated VRAM
[17:33] <rubiksmomo> I just installed TeamSpeak 3. I can run it from terminal by calling for an .sh file. How do I add a launcher to the left bar?
[17:34] <symbiosis> rubiksmomo: Check out the following link: http://askubuntu.com/questions/141229/how-to-add-a-shell-script-to-launcher-as-shortcut
[17:34] <daftykins> malgorath: does the live session from the USB run fine for ages?
[17:35] <malgorath> daftykins: honestly I've just ran the install, but I'll try that right now as I'm on a seperate box from it
[17:36] <rubiksmomo> symbiosis: Got it working, thanks
[17:36] <mguy> malgorath: What video card?
[17:37] <daftykins> mguy: that was answered.
[17:37] <malgorath> mguy it has a AMD Radeon 6650M Video with 1GB dedicated VRAM
[17:37] <mguy> malgorath: I would try using 'additional drivers' to install the proprietary driver
[17:38] <malgorath> mguy: i can't get past login screen, it completely locks system
[17:38] <malgorath> Waiting on DVD to load right now.
[17:38] <malgorath> can't ctrl+alt+f1 to get a terminal, mouse locks up, no keyboard, no lights, time even locks
[17:38] <mguy> malgorath: Can you ssh into the machine or switch virtual terminals
[17:39] <acmehandle> how do I check the version of something in apt?
[17:39] <malgorath> mguy: don't know what the ip would be to ssh into it with
[17:40] <mguy> malgorath: are you getting the address from a router or something?
[17:40] <malgorath> mguy, dhcp yes
[17:40] <trism> acmehandle: apt-cache policy package-name;
[17:40] <malgorath> i guess i could check my airport extreme for active dhcp addresses
[17:41] <malgorath> loading the live cd right now, seems to be running really slow
[17:41] <daftykins> mguy: SSH isn't on as default so that's a moot point.
[17:41] <malgorath> wonder if I still have it on USB instead of this dvd stuff
[17:42] <daftykins> malgorath: i would think if you had an internet connection during the installer, it would've installed updates. i would still find it important to know if the live session runs for longer in 'try' mode
[17:42] <malgorath> daftykins: yeah I agree, and I did do the graphical install and installed all drivers, and updates during install
[17:44] <malgorath> wonder if my dvd was bad, seemed locked up on that too so I'm gonna boot from usb
[17:45] <daftykins> malgorath: md5 that ISO
[17:45] <daftykins> i doubt you'd have gotten that far with a bad image though
[17:46] <malgorath> daftykins: about 20x faster on USB so far
[17:46] <daftykins> oh it will be :>
[17:46] <malgorath> I just told it to run the live cd
[17:47] <malgorath> getting an error, BUG: soft lockup = CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [Xorg:2185] (got that 2 times)
[17:47] <daftykins> yeah that definitely hints at graphics issues that would benefit from the fglrx proprietary driver being installed, like mguy suggested.
[17:47] <malgorath> INFO: rcu_sched self-dtecte stall on CPU { 0}
[17:48] <malgorath> Wonder if there are bios settings I should do
[17:48] <daftykins> no
[17:48] <daftykins> shouldn't be relevant at all
[17:48] <mguy> Can't you just boot it into text-mode somehow and play with it there? Or see if it still locks up?
[17:48] <daftykins> malgorath: you might be able to boot to a recovery prompt and install drivers with a wired network connection, if that system has a wired interface - you have a network cable and can plug directly into your router
[17:49] <malgorath> daftykins: I'm wired in right now on it
[17:49] <daftykins> good stuff
[17:49] <daftykins> !recovery | malgorath
[17:49] <malgorath> I have to reinstall ubuntu thought so I'm seeing if there is something I can do before I start
[17:49] <daftykins> why do you have to reinstall?
[17:50] <malgorath> daftykins: as I said in the beginning I reinstalled win7 so that I could run tests to make sure the system was working correctly
[17:50] <daftykins> oh right, so no ubuntu right now?
[17:50] <daftykins> malgorath: well whilst Windows is there, check for any BIOS updates for the machine.
[17:50] <malgorath> daftykins: okay
[17:54] <Guest65533> quit
[17:55] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> Hello all!  I have a new problem that I could use some help on.  I need to install ubuntu and want an SSD as my OS drive and a raid 0 with 2 500gb mechanical drives as my storage and databases
[17:56] <malgorath> daftykins: seems there is a bios update, and it involves graphical and usb issues mainly so I'll do that and then retry to run live cd off usb again
[17:56] <YamakasY> how can I print the exitcode of pgrep ?
[17:56] <daftykins> malgorath: excellent
[17:57] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-Mobile: soo... where are you getting stuck? :)
[17:57] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> Not yet
[17:57] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> just doing research first
[17:57] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> I am waiting on drives
[17:57] <malgorath> daftykins: I had v1.10 and the latest was 1.21
[17:57] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> :)
[17:57] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> I would just make my root dir on the SSD then the home and swap on the raid right?
[17:58] <acmehandle> how do I check what packages are installed?
[17:58] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-Mobile: no, i wouldn't. i'd full install to the SSD, but then symlink ~/Pictures, ~/Music, etc. to the HDDs
[17:58] <VanceX> ^
[17:58] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> Ahhhhh
[17:58] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> nice!
[17:58] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> Even better, thanks!
[17:58] <daftykins> then your .config and so on remains fast
[17:59] <daftykins> acmehandle: "dpkg -l | grep <thing to search for>"
[17:59] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> How would I do my swap?
[18:00] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> I would like to leave the SSD read only once I have everything set
[18:00] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> Prolong life and redundancy
[18:00] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-Mobile: sorry but that's a really silly move.
[18:01] <daftykins> you've read too much into the "omg don't write to SSDs!" thinking
[18:01] <daftykins> just use it and live life :)
[18:02] <symbiosis> RaMcHiP: I will second daftykins here for what it is worth...any close to modern SSD has a very long shelf life.  You will be complaining about your CPU being too slow before you worry about the SSD going bad because you write to it too often.
[18:02] <malgorath> daftykins: seems to be completely locked up now after trying to get into the livecd..
[18:03] <daftykins> malgorath: keep trying, the issue you're having with it is just what an old craptop i have here does one in several boots, due to stroppy graphics
[18:03] <malgorath> in the bios I set the graphics from switchable to intergrated
[18:04] <sacarlson> I have a working mike input with also and pulse audio but when I bring up jackd I'm not getting anything out of audio capture.  other devices work ok like vlc as an output works all the way out to the speaker with jackd
[18:04] <daftykins> oh you have some hybrid controls, ok
[18:04] <s991533> hello, do you know why /usr/share/python-apt/templates/Ubuntu.mirrors can't be found in python-apt-comman v<IP_ADDRESS>? I can find it in v<IP_ADDRESS>
[18:04] <s991533> so is there a easy to update the mirror list in Ubuntu?
[18:04] <malgorath> daftykins: I don't think this is really a crappy laptop, its got more juice then a few desktops I got near me
[18:04] <daftykins> malgorath: no not yours, i'm referring to the one i have here :)
[18:04] <malgorath> oh :D
[18:05] <malgorath> and bam it booted to live cd
[18:05] <sonda> hello
[18:05] <daftykins> malgorath: it has a similar issue where the included graphics drivers don't work well with the nvidia it has
[18:05] <sonda> can anyone help me fix a corrupted sd card
[18:05] <malgorath> think I should install again and then when i get into working system, install fglrx?
[18:05] <sonda> i have gparted installed on lubuntu
[18:05] <jak2000> off topic question: how to save a 6gb iso file on a DVD? is possible
[18:05] <jak2000> ?
[18:05] <daftykins> malgorath: yip
[18:05] <sacarlson> it there a trick to turn on mike with jackd,  all the settings on qasmixer look to be the same as it worked in pulseaudio so why doesn't jackd mike input not work in ubuntu 14.04?
[18:06] <Pinkamena_D> When doing a high load operation on a single cpu core I notice in the system monitor that the core with the load switches every 5-10 seconds to another core. Any idea why this is?
[18:06] <daftykins> jak2000: nope dual layer disc only. what on earth is 6GB you're trying to boot? :P
[18:06] <sonda> fdisk /dev/sdb says No Media found
[18:06] <symbiosis> s991533: Are you looking for something like this?  http://askubuntu.com/questions/37753/how-can-i-get-apt-to-use-a-mirror-close-to-me-or-choose-a-faster-mirror
[18:06] <sonda> where as  i have sd card attached
[18:06] <daftykins> sonda: unplug it, run "dmesg | tail", plug it back in then run it again and see if you see anything coming up.
[18:07] <sonda> ok
[18:07] <malgorath> sonda: did you check dmesg to see if its really being put under /dev/sdb or maybe its /dev/sdd
[18:07] <malgorath> like daftykins said :D
[18:07] <daftykins> :)
[18:07] <sonda> http://pastebin.com/KfN90rCU
[18:08] <daftykins> sonda: it's a VM?
[18:08] <malgorath> daftykins: would it be worth my time to worry about the ati drivers or should I just stick with intel intergrated?
[18:08] <sonda> yes
[18:08] <jak3000> off topic question: how to save a 6gb iso file on a DVD? is possible?
[18:08] <daftykins> sonda: ugh. why not deal with the card with your host OS? you're overcomplicating it
[18:08] <daftykins> jak2000: i already replied!
[18:09] <sonda> windows also doesn't detect
[18:09] <WACOMalt_> Hello folks. Anyone using Cinnamon Desktop in 14.10 ?
[18:09] <sonda> should i ask in #windows
[18:09] <malgorath> maybe it don't work
[18:09] <daftykins> sonda: is that because you had your VM running? ;)
[18:09] <WACOMalt_> specifically 2.4
[18:09] <daftykins> sonda: turn off your VMs, reboot Windows, plug the card in and look at diskpart via command prompt and diskmgmt.msc
[18:09] <sonda> no i tried first in windows without vm
[18:09] <daftykins> and yep further support in windows channel
[18:10] <sonda> ok
[18:10] <daftykins> malgorath: eh just see how you go
[18:10] <jak3000> daftykins disconnected.
[18:11] <Scoot> I need some help >> After I came out of suspend my system said "Your system is providing 3D via software rendering rather than hardware rendering"... how do I change that?
[18:11] <malgorath> i guess i could try to get it working even though I doubt I'll do gaming on it and need 1GB dedicated video gfc
[18:11] <malgorath> er gfx even
[18:11] <s991533> symbiosis: I gusee not, I know there is a mirror list under /usr/share/python-apt/templates/Ubuntu.mirrors, I just want it be updated easily
[18:11] <malgorath> Scoot: tried rebootin?
[18:12] <Scoot> I have a graphics card, but is it not being used?
[18:12] <daftykins> jak2000: nope dual layer disc only. what on earth is 6GB you're trying to boot? :P
[18:12] <Scoot> Malgorath: Oh, ive rebooted more times than I can count
[18:13] <daftykins> Scoot: install pastebinit and run "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[18:13] <Scoot> dafty: k
[18:13] <malgorath> daftykins: there is gistit too :D if you don't like pastebins nasty slowness and ads
[18:13] <jak3000> daftykins need buy a dvd dl right?
[18:14] <daftykins> malgorath: pastebinit in ubuntu posts to paste.ubuntu.com which is free from all junk
[18:14] <malgorath> jak3000: are you trying to read the file or just back it up?
[18:14] <daftykins> jak3000: you didn't answer what it is.
[18:14] <malgorath> daftykins: ah yes I forgot that
[18:14] <Scoot> does that change what I need to do?
[18:15] <VanceX> EVERYONE: Please one at a time. daftykins is trying to answer. Sorry daftykins, if I could help with any of these... I would :)
[18:15] <jak3000> daftykins is Autocad
[18:15] <daftykins> jak3000: if you're just trying to install it, why not just extract / mount it?
[18:16] <daftykins> you don't need to burn an ISO to make use of it.
[18:16] <jak3000> i need give a copy to a friend
[18:16] <s991533> symbiosis: oh, I can see it by `apt content`
[18:16] <symbiosis> s991533: Cool.  Good to know.
[18:16] <daftykins> jak3000: external hard disk? flash drive? something. sounds illegal though so i'm not gonna assist further, sorry.
[18:17] <jak3000> ok..
[18:17] <jak3000> no ilegal.
[18:17] <daftykins> hah, yeah right :)
[18:18] <s991533> does anyone know how to add a mirror in python-apt-common? I think it should automatically update mirror list from hackpad, but seems it didn;t
[18:18] <daftykins> VanceX: heh don't worry there are other volunteers too
[18:18] <daftykins> Scoot: no just run as i suggested
[18:18] <daftykins> s991533: please go and ask in a python channel
[18:19] <malgorath> jak3000: 8GB usb stick are $6 at newegg right now
[18:19] <malgorath> if you go to a computer shop you might find those 'basket' stick that are 8 - 16g for like 5-10$ each
[18:21] <jak2000> malgorath thanks
[18:21] <jak2000> daftykins thanks
[18:22] <xamxam> i want to install nvidia drivers, There are five options listed in Additional Drivers, which option should i choose?
[18:23] <daftykins> xamxam: what model do you have? ("lspci" in terminal)
[18:23] <malgorath> xamxam, gaming or not?
[18:23] <xamxam> I have optimus card on my laptop, gt525m
[18:23] <malgorath> xamxam, go with noueavu
[18:23] <xamxam> i will be using it for video playback and some light gaming
[18:24] <Scoot> daftykins: K, did the pastebinit thing. The URL it spit out was http://paste.ubuntu.com/9302885/
[18:24] <xamxam> which option will allow me to save power? and switching?
[18:24] <daftykins> xamxam: whichever says nvidia-prime, if you're on 14.04
[18:25] <k1l_> xamxam: which ubuntu are you on?
[18:25] <daftykins> Scoot: yeah you're stuck in vesa, "lspci | pastebinit" please
[18:25] <k1l_> xamxam: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/HybridGraphics
[18:25] <lvmerrors> Several years ago I built an RAID1 with LVM on one of my machines. It's been chugging along and I haven't touched it in years. Now something broke, naturally, and I can't boot the machine. Using a recovery disk I can get the machine up again, but when I do an fdisk on either of the disks it tells me that there are no labels on the drives. Am I going about it the wrong way, or am I SOL-ed when it comes to my data?
[18:26] <Scoot> daftykins: k
[18:26] <xamxam> i am using 14.04 LTS, and i cant see 'prime' word in those options
[18:27] <daftykins> lvmerrors: yeah fdisk works with disks directly, not with the LVM setup you've got. i can't comment further though as i don't know anything about LVM
[18:27] <Scoot> daftykins: Here's the new URL: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9302938/
[18:27] <daftykins> Scoot: do you recall ever installing an nvidia graphics driver manually?
[18:28] <Scoot> daftykins: Dont think so...
[18:28] <lvmerrors> daftykins: Thanks. So I'd need a rescue-disk with some LVM tools on it to be able to do anying useful I suppose.
[18:28] <xamxam> http://i.imgur.com/0dtywWD.png
[18:28] <daftykins> Scoot: if you type "nv" then hit tab, do you get offered any nvidia program names?
[18:29] <xamxam> These are the options i have in additional drivers.
[18:29] <k1l_> xamxam: did you look into the link i gave you?
[18:29] <Scoot> daftykins: from the terminal?
[18:29] <daftykins> Scoot: yep
[18:29] <xamxam> k1l_: checking.
[18:30] <Scoot> daftykins: says command not found
[18:30] <daftykins> Scoot: you don't hit enter, just to be clear - just type "nv" then hit tab several times
[18:30] <xamxam> ok, so how do i install nvidia prime?
[18:31] <Scoot> daftykins: ah
[18:31] <k1l_> xamxam: choose the driver mentioned in the help page i linked
[18:31] <k1l_> xamxam: then check if nvidia-prime is installed, too, in the software center or with apt-get
[18:31] <zergut> good day, how to look up shortcut info in task/launch panel?
[18:32] <BluesKaj_> Howdy folks
[18:33] <EriC^^> zergut: /usr/share/applications
[18:33] <zergut> EriC^^: thanks a lot
[18:33] <EriC^^> no problem
[18:33] <daftykins> Scoot: so, nothing?
[18:33] <Scoot> daftykins: nvidia-detector?
[18:33] <daftykins> Scoot: are there not any others?
[18:34] <Butch128> NVRM: GPU at 0000:01:00.0 has fallen off the bus. <---- Anyone seen this before with Nvidia cards?  Works fine on the nouvou drivers, breaks on the binary drivers.  Worked fine for *years*, upgraded, now this...
[18:35] <Scoot> daftykins there is a list of stuff
[18:35] <xamxam> k1l_: the order of the installation should be drivers first and then nvidia-prime?
[18:35] <daftykins> Scoot: nothing like nvidia-uninstall or so on? just trying to get an idea if anything nvidia was installed.
[18:36] <k1l_> xamxam: the driver should install nvidia-prime, too. just to make sure its installed
[18:36] <Scoot> daftykins: no, just various directories, etc.
[18:37] <daftykins> Scoot: ok, you're gonna need to download the nvidia driver from their website and install it
[18:37] <daftykins> !nvidia | Scoot for more info this should provide a guide
[18:38] <Scoot> daftykins: k, I'll investigate, thanks... bbl
[18:42] <xamxam> Which software combination you guys prefer for high quality playback? On windows i was using madVR with MPC, is there anything like that available on ubuntu?
[18:48] <bubbasaures> xamxam, Do you have a ubuntu install?
[18:49] <Stephen92ofa> Hello guys, I was wondering if I could get some assistance.
[18:49] <xamxam> bubbasaures: Yes, i have installed it earlier today.
[18:49] <daftykins> !ask | Stephen92ofa
[18:50] <bubbasaures> xamxam, Cool, hard to tell at times is all just wondering.
[18:50] <Stephen92ofa> I've tried installing some Nvidia drivers, but when I run them, it tells me I am running X server. And that they won't install and to close X server. What exactly is X server?
[18:50] <daftykins> Stephen92ofa: what card are you using? you shouldn't really be installing nvidia drivers as a manual download
[18:51] <Stephen92ofa> I'm using a 780ti. But when I try to run games, it goes through my motherboards chipset. And won't go past 1280x1024. When my monitor is 1920x1080
[18:52] <k1l_> Stephen92ofa: you want to install the drivers from the nvidia page? why not use the drivers ubuntu ships?
[18:52] <daftykins> 780Ti probably isn't supported then
[18:52] <Stephen92ofa> Ubuntu ships? Sorry, I'm new to the whole linux things. How does that work?
[18:52] <warkosign> hi, my boot sequence hangs unless I use recovery menu, drop to root and "service lightdm start" manually. Any suggestion will be appreciated.
[18:52] <nimmersatt> hey friends! Are there news on how unity 8 will be on the desktop?
[18:52] <daftykins> Stephen92ofa: you're going to have to hit ctrl+alt+F1, login manually then run some commands to install the driver. should be plenty of guides online with the manual process to do this, you'll need to print it out or write it down ahead of trying
[18:53] <bubbasaures> warkosign, What led to this, some details are really needed.
[18:53] <nimmersatt> and is there a place to find news about unity8?
[18:53] <deemo> hello there... installed 12.04 for Dreamstudio, ran updates and got this pop up details.http://paste.ubuntu.com/9303247/
[18:53] <Stephen92ofa> Where could I find such a guide, dafty?
[18:53] <k1l_> Stephen92ofa: ubuntu has some nvidia drivers already made working with the ubuntu system.
[18:53] <xamxam> I cant seem to get these persian fonts work, they are messed up in google chrome (on facebook) while work fine in office.
[18:54] <Stephen92ofa> They weren't in my installation, k1.
[18:54] <OerHeks> nvidia 319.76 Added support for GeForce GTX 780 Ti
[18:54] <k1l_> Stephen92ofa: see in system settings-> updates and software-> additional drivers tab
[18:54] <daftykins> Stephen92ofa: from googling "manual nvidia driver installation"
[18:54] <daftykins> k1l_: that card isn't supported by the ones in repos.
[18:54] <martinald> hi
[18:54] <martinald> i have just bought 2x 4K monitors
[18:54] <michele993> the live wallapaper in ubuntu has removed?
[18:54] <warkosign> bubbasaures: I installed cinnamon, worked fine. Enabled nvidia driver, it began happening. followed online instruction and "apt-get remove nvidia*", kept happening. downloaded and ran installation script from nvidia, still no proper boot. found that I can manually load from the recovery menu, came here to ask
[18:54] <k1l_> Stephen92ofa: you need to enable them first. ubuntu is not allowed to ship nvidia drivers
[18:54] <martinald> does anyone know a graphics card with good support for 2x 4K monitors under ubuntu?
[18:55] <OerHeks> nvidia 331 should work then
[18:55] <bubbasaures> warkosign, Not to me but the channel is all, thanks.
[18:55] <k1l_> daftykins: which drivers is needed? 331 is in 14.04 that should work then
[18:55] <daftykins> k1l_: with the GTX 780Ti? are you sure?
[18:55] <Stephen92ofa> Okay, I understand now. Manual installation appears to be the only way to install them I suppose
[18:55] <daftykins> i know 331 doesn't support the 750Ti
[18:55] <daftykins> haven't checked though.
[18:56] <nimmersatt> anyone? :3
[18:56] <OerHeks> he has 780
[18:56] <bubbasaures> warkosign, We don't support direct nvidia downloads technically just what's in the ubuntu repos as well.
[18:56] <Stephen92ofa> One more question, that has to do with a second piece of software. Compiz.
[18:56] <Stephen92ofa> I have compiz, and the compiz setting manager, but I don't have the options for wobbly windows and such. And ccsm was removed from the software center
[18:56] <daftykins> OerHeks: i mentioned two models on two different lines ;)
[18:57] <warkosign> bubbasaures: manual execution of lightdm goes straight to the desktop, maybe the problem is in the greeter, how can I check/fix it ?
[18:57] <k1l_> daftykins: i checked. 331 is for 780ti
[18:57] <Stephen92ofa> So I'm good to go with 331?
[18:58] <k1l_> yes
[18:58] <m4db0y> I got trouble on black screen death on lock scrren by vanishing effect on ubuntu 14.04, and i googled a bit i think it's nvidia graphic card problem.
[18:58] <OerHeks> daftykins, 750ti and 750 will need 334.21, that one is in xorg edgers ppa ?
[18:58] <k1l_> choose the one in the system settings like i mentioned
[18:58] <bubbasaures> warkosign, I can't help you with assumptions. You should of just come here when you had a problem with the in repo drivers is all.
[18:58] <Stephen92ofa> Great. Would you happen to know anything about compiz k1?
[18:58] <daftykins> OerHeks: probably, whenever anyone mentions that annoying PPA i run for the hills though :P
[18:58] <bubbasaures> you will be steered there first
[18:59] <daftykins> Stephen92ofa: use tab complete for nicknames
[18:59] <xamxam> How can i speed up downloads in software center? It looks like my speed is capped to 20-30 KBps.
[18:59] <OerHeks> haha i know, 750ti and 780ti are luxuryproblems
[18:59] <daftykins> xamxam: pick a better mirror: system settings -> software and sources -> find the 'select best mirror' button
[19:00] <daftykins> k1l_: that's good to know, sorry i wasn't 100% sure there
[19:01] <malgorath> daftykins: did some updates and gonna try to run with gfx switchable
[19:01] <m4db0y> i just apt-update to solve black screen problem but i can't enter tts mode by CtrlAlt F1 on bloack lock screen. is light-dm matters?
[19:01] <malgorath> so far seems okay
[19:02] <OerHeks> m4db0y, try ctrl alt F2
[19:02] <K999> hello to all
[19:02] <mojo1512> hello
[19:02] <m4db0y> no tts mode wors
[19:03] <m4db0y> i think system just set brightness to zero
[19:03] <K999> to what kind of music belongs this music video?
[19:03] <m4db0y> and i think i can't adjust brightness by some keyboard or mouse input
[19:04] <daftykins> K999: this is an ubuntu support channel, not a "help me with identifying the music" channel :)
[19:04] <K999> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-he9-F0dic
[19:04] <OerHeks> how is that related to ubuntu support, K999 ?
[19:04] <daftykins> let me guess, because that's what they're running :(
[19:04] <mdoge> daftykins: you beat me to it :)
[19:05] <daftykins> lol
[19:05] <m4db0y> well what this command does? :gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver idle-activation-enabled false
[19:06] <EriC^^> m4db0y: looks like it disables the screensaver
[19:06] <m4db0y> thx eric
[19:07] <m4db0y> now i test it's solved XD
[19:07] <daftykins> m4db0y: you know the clue is in the words?
[19:08] <m4db0y> should i reboot to apply change? in now it doesn't work
[19:08] <docteur-charles-> Can I make facebook free call with pidgin ?
[19:08] <EriC^^> m4db0y: just use the settings > brightness
[19:11] <m4db0y> even with reboot it doesn't work
[19:12] <mr_mhm> guys/gals, can anyone advise a client of mine RE: ext4/LVM snaphots, 14.04? can pay some.
[19:12] <m4db0y> how can i know am i using which screen saver on lock screen by entering Ctrl Alt L?
[19:12] <EriC^^> m4db0y: just use the settings > brightness
[19:12] <m4db0y> It looks like vanished after about 10 seconds by default
[19:13] <m4db0y> it tried that but this is not solved
[19:13] <m4db0y> I*
[19:13] <xamxam> installation of nvidia drivers went fine, but it looks like prime wasn't installed.
[19:13] <EriC^^> you want to turn the screensaver off?
[19:13] <m4db0y> well i googled and i think it's related with nvidia
[19:14] <EriC^^> m4db0y: hmm
[19:14] <m4db0y> i just ad-hoc sloved idle state by setting brightness to never and now lock screen got problem
[19:14] <EriC^^> m4db0y: you want to disable the screensaver?
[19:14] <m4db0y> yes either way it's okay
[19:14] <EriC^^> i'm not understanding
[19:15] <EriC^^> what you're saying
[19:16] <EriC^^> is that the screensaver doesn't come but the lock screen comes?
[19:16] <m4db0y> my problem is black screen permernatly continues after default vanishing effect after few idle seconds
[19:17] <m4db0y> i set system don't go lock scrren on idle state. in this case lock by C-A-T
[19:17] <m4db0y> *ctrl-alt-L
[19:17] <EriC^^> m4db0y: ok
[19:17] <venu> hey i just dual booted ubuntu alongside win8.1 in my laptop. wen my ubuntu starts it is telling it is running on low graphics and that i have to manually set it. can u help
[19:18] <K999> We are anonymous we are legion we do not forgive we do not forget expect us
[19:18] <mdoge> We are anonymous we are legion .... we .. do ...   How would I go about setting up all the cache and home being on my RAID?
[19:18] <daftykins> K999: either ask an ubuntu support question or take your childish antics somewhere else please
[19:18] <bubbasaures> venu, update and upgrade ubuntu and look on software & updates last tab additional drivers.
[19:18] <RaMcHiP-TMP> I essentiall want to make OS drive read only and have the mechanical raid doing all the heavy lifting
[19:18] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: i don't think it's going to support a BIOS configured RAID.
[19:19] <RaMcHiP-TMP> :(
[19:19] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: what does ubuntu see? "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"
[19:19] <daftykins> although you claimed not to have the disks yet, so you're still planning aren't you? :P
[19:19] <venu> i only get the console window. i am not able to view my desktop
[19:20] <RaMcHiP-TMP> Nope, got the disks
[19:20] <RaMcHiP-TMP> :)
[19:20] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: see above then
[19:20] <bubbasaures> venu, You can run lspci at the console and find the graphic hardware that is pertinent in your issue.
[19:20] <m4db0y> I'm using GT640 and lspci detects it
[19:21] <Dice-Man> hello people i'm wondering what's the umask and dmask values to put in fstab to give access to all users
[19:22] <EriC^^> m4db0y: type gsettings list-recursively | grep idle-activation
[19:22] <RaMcHiP-TMP> paste.ubuntu.com/9303615
[19:22] <bubbasaures> Dice-Man, man fstab
[19:22] <m4db0y> it says org.gnome.desktop.screensaver idle-activation-enabled false
[19:23] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: hrmm seems alright, but you've done LVM. pastebin "mount" ?
[19:23] <RaMcHiP-TMP> paste.ubuntu.com/9303638
[19:23] <RaMcHiP-TMP> That is so sweet
[19:23] <RaMcHiP-TMP> thanks for the pastebinit!
[19:24] <Dice-Man> bubbasaures: i want that all my users of the machine access to the mout point
[19:24] <RaMcHiP-TMP> learning that was worth it in and upon itself
[19:24] <venu> bubbasaures, i am really not able to understand lspci. its giving me a paragraph of information
[19:24] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: ah no, it's just seeing /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc as separate disks as predicted since it doesn't support that fakeRAID
[19:25] <daftykins> !fakeraid | RaMcHiP-TMP
[19:25] <shaan> hey guys what is a good choice for a mail server which has IMAP and is relativly lightweight and secure?
[19:26] <RaMcHiP-TMP> The only thing I didnt like about that is that it still crashed after a drive failure
[19:26] <bubbasaures> venu, You should see the word graphics in lspci look there.
[19:26] <RaMcHiP-TMP> I was hoping to use the INTEL raid
[19:27] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: well you wisely have boot off of the RAID volume this time, so bad things won't happen
[19:27] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: yeah, you can't
[19:27] <bubbasaures> Dice-Man, Ah, you want help so you don;t have to do the work yourself. ;)
[19:27] <compdoc> shaan, in a virtual machine, you can run SME Server from contribs.org
[19:27] <shaan> oh
[19:27] <RaMcHiP-TMP> Dang
[19:27] <RaMcHiP-TMP> OK I will use the softraid and just have an alarm that sounds upon failure for immediate replacement
[19:28] <RaMcHiP-TMP> much appreciated daftykins!!
[19:29] <m4db0y> is enabling embedded-keyboard-enabled works?
[19:30] <Dice-Man> bubbasaures: well i'm not really strong in math :) just give me a good link
[19:31] <Dice-Man> ok i found something interesting thanks bubbasaures
[19:33] <xristos_> i can't open web pages....it stucks on loading, and nothing farther
[19:33] <daftykins> xristos_: guest session work?
[19:34] <xristos_> ?
[19:35] <RaMcHiP-TMP> I am reinstalling ubuntu to see if the raid would sense and it did
[19:35] <RaMcHiP-TMP> I made the raid after first install
[19:35] <RaMcHiP-TMP> it found it so now reinstalling
[19:35] <daftykins> xristos_: try it in the guest session.
[19:36] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: you went and put the /home on there didn't you :(
[19:37] <shaan> other then SME server is there anything else
[19:37] <shaan> i need something lightweight and secure email server
[19:37] <owen1> I 'Override software rendering list' and 'Enable WebGL' in chrome://flags but http://get.webgl.org say I don't have WebGL support. I also tried running chrome with --disable-gpu-watchdog but it doesn't help. Firefox runs WebGL just fine. I have the same issue with chromium-browser package (39.0.2171.65 Ubuntu 14.10) and also with chrome (39.0.2171.71). Any ideas?
[19:37] <RaMcHiP-TMP> nope
[19:37] <RaMcHiP-TMP> I havent touched that yet
[19:37] <daftykins> shaan: try #ubuntu-server or have a look for more email orientated channels
[19:37] <RaMcHiP-TMP> still installing just to SSD as per normal
[19:37] <RaMcHiP-TMP> but it sense the raid
[19:38] <RaMcHiP-TMP> Once I get installed to SSD with RAID detecting then I will ask for next steps :)
[19:38] <RaMcHiP-TMP> I just wanna move my home and cache to the RAID
[19:38] <RaMcHiP-TMP> then set the SSD to read only
[19:38] <RaMcHiP-TMP> That should prolong the SSD life exponentially correct?
[19:39] <daftykins> still 100% disagree with your plan
[19:39] <RaMcHiP-TMP> Almost indefinnitely
[19:39] <daftykins> no, your idea is silly
[19:39] <daftykins> you need to do OS updates regularly, you can't set it read only
[19:39] <RaMcHiP-TMP> Touche...
[19:39] <m4db0y> probably it's related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1301125
[19:39] <daftykins> plus you have a samsung 840, that puppy is good for 10+ years
[19:39] <daftykins> *minimum*
[19:40] <RaMcHiP-TMP> OK sweet
[19:40] <RaMcHiP-TMP> then I will just use the RAID to store critical data and my databases
[19:41] <daftykins> we went over this already :( why must we repeat?
[19:42] <daftykins> symlink media directories like ~/Downloads,
[19:42] <daftykins> oops - ~/Music ~/Pictures etc. to the RAID volume
[19:42] <xristos__> when i'm trying open web pages it stucks on loadiiiing and nothing farther, but other apps like skype or update manager don't have any problem with internet connection
[19:42] <owen1> my HDMI monitor show 'cable not connected' even after i see it in xrandr and type 'xrandr --auto'. any idea?
[19:42] <daftykins> xristos__: aaaand have you tried the browser in the guest session yet?
[19:43] <xristos__> sorry i am new to linux what is guest session?
[19:44] <daftykins> xristos__: on the login screen when you type your password, or by clicking off the menu top right - a guest session is an alternative account that acts like another user
[19:46] <OerHeks> xristos__, if the guest-account does not solve, try resetting your router, sometimes fixes internet
[19:49] <WaKaN> ubuntu-fr
[19:49] <daftykins> WaKaN: /j #ubuntu-fr
[19:50] <RaMcHiP-TMP> I wont be using any media on this guy, its really only for databasing
[19:53] <RaMcHiP-TMP> daftykins, since the only thing that is required to keep is the DB cant I just symlink the SQl DB dir to the RAID?
[20:00] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: you can put whatever you want there
[20:01] <xamxam> i am cant see anything other than a black screen upon restarting after nvidia driver installation
[20:01] <xristos_> the same problem in guest session, but when i logged in normaly a popup mesage in the wifi signal appeared saying:your current network has a .local domain, which is not recommended and incompatible with the Avahi network service discovery. The service has been disabled
[20:01] <bekks> xamxam: How did you install the nvidia drivers?
[20:01] <RaMcHiP-TMP> Thats what I thought.  Thanks for everything, sorry bout the confusion.  I try not to do that to people that are community driven!
[20:02] <bekks> xristos_: What do you need avahi for?
[20:02] <xamxam> bekks: from additional drivers, i selected proprietary drivers for my card.
[20:03] <xristos_> i don't even what this is.... this is a fresh xubuntu install i didn't make any changes except the updates
[20:03] <bekks> xamxam: Do you remember which version you installed?
[20:04] <xamxam> bekks: yes, version 331, right next to it it was written something like (tested)
[20:04] <bekks> xristos_: So change the domain of your local network, e.g.
[20:04] <bekks> xamxam: and which graphics card do you have exactly?
[20:04] <xristos_> i don't know what Avahi is
[20:04] <xamxam> bekks: gt525m optimus supported.
[20:05] <bekks> xamxam: Then you have to uninstall that driver again, and install an optimus-capable driver.
[20:06] <xamxam> bekks: it was a supported driver, if not then why was it listed in the options?
[20:08] <bekks> xamxam: It is a supported driver, but you have to install it differently when using Optimus. Thanks Nvidia. :)
[20:08] <bekks> !optimus | xamxam
[20:08] <bekks> xamxam: Oh, wrong link. Do not use bumblebee. :)
[20:09] <bekks> xamxam: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/HybridGraphics#Software_Requirements - use nvidia-prime
[20:09] <k1l_> xamxam: is nvidia-prime installed?
[20:10] <xamxam> k1l_: i checked for nvidia-prime in the software center, and it showed me some tools for nvidia-prime which got installed alongside drivers automatically
[20:11] <xamxam> but i never found nvidia-prime from nvidia settings.
[20:11] <k1l_> xamxam: so is "nvidia-prime" installed or not?
[20:12] <xamxam> is there any way to check it? i mean i have no display output as of now.
[20:13] <xamxam> its black screen with some stupid cursor.
[20:13] <k1l_> ctrl+alt+f1 for tty. then login as user. then "sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime"
[20:13] <bortbyting> hi all, i just found this one out
[20:14] <xamxam> k1l_: i did that, i remember, but output was something like: make sure its not in use, i dont know exact words
[20:15] <symbiosis> xamxam: You should be able to run the following: lshw -C v ideo
[20:15] <symbiosis> errr... -C video
[20:21] <haidora> i need a program like IDM
[20:21] <RaMcHiP-TMP> daftykins, I have gotten up and it acted like it detected the raid on install but getting errors on parted -l http://paste.ubuntu.com/9304298/
[20:21] <bekks> haidora: Whats "IDM"?
[20:21] <haidora> internet downloader manager
[20:21] <bekks> haidora: Just use wget
[20:21] <daftykins> RaMcHiP-TMP: sorry no experience there
[20:21] <haidora> how?
[20:21] <daftykins> haidora: terminal -> wget URL
[20:22] <k1l_> haidora: what protocol do you want to use?
[20:22] <haidora> ok thanks is it for music and videos and every thing?
[20:22] <droid909> guys, there is a package called motion, is there a way to watch it in iphones browser?
[20:22] <Lartza> Why *** update-locale: Error: invalid locale settings:  LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8 ?
[20:22] <xamxam> ok, that didnt work, ctrl+alt+f1
[20:22] <RaMcHiP-TMP> NP, thank you for your help on the rest!!  Now to figure this bad boy out ;)
[20:22] <Ugb8> would you potato
[20:23] <xamxam> i am still stuck at black screen
[20:23] <Lartza> Nvm installed language-pack-fi
[20:23] <daftykins> haidora: it's for files over HTTP, the file type doesn't make any difference, but likely you mean link *types* which is hard to quantify without examples
[20:23] <prote>  Hello, can open broadcast software run in linuxlite 2.0 ?
[20:23] <k1l_> xamxam: it should bring you to a text konsole where you could log in?
[20:24] <kostkon> haidora, flareget http://flareget.com/  is a somewhat good alternative
[20:24] <xamxam> when exactly i should press these keys?
[20:24] <xangua> prote: this is ubuntu support, not Linux lite
[20:25] <k1l_> xamxam: its hard to tell in what state your system is form here
[20:25] <xamxam> at grub selection? or when ubuntu logo shows up?
[20:25] <haidora> daftykins : where does it save the files?
[20:25] <k1l_> xamxam: when its booted to the end
[20:26] <xamxam> got that screen
[20:26] <Hilikus> using do-release-upgrade in a server, how do i go from 14.04 to 14.10 since it is an LTS ?
[20:26] <rww> !upgradeofflts
[20:26] <k1l_> xamxam: logged in?
[20:26] <Hilikus> i don't know if -d applies here
[20:26] <xamxam> but its showing me this error that my system is running in low graphics
[20:26] <daftykins> haidora: in the folder you're running it in ;)
[20:27] <k1l_> !nomodeset | xamxam try this
[20:27] <xangua> rww: sudoedit?
[20:27] <rww> xangua: yes
[20:27] <bekks> Hilikus: Are yiu sure you dint want to stick with LTS?
[20:27] <bekks> 21*dont
[20:27] <Hilikus> bekks: yes
[20:28] <BluesKaj_> Hilikus, -d doesn't apply, it;s for development OSs
[20:28] <Hilikus> the problem is i thought to go to 14.10 i needed -d and it started the process already
[20:28] <mango_> anyone familiar with local port forwarding using vnc? I think I've setup local port forwarding up, but I don't know what this means: <IP_ADDRESS>:5692<->*:*
[20:28] <mango_> <IP_ADDRESS>:5692<->*:* is taken from nettop on OSX
[20:28] <bekks> Hilikus: Just out of curiousity: why do you want to get rid of LTS?
[20:28] <bekks> mango_: VNC cannot forward any ports, ssh can.
[20:29] <Hilikus> it is currently blocked in "Some third parties were disabled. do you wan to continue?" but if i abort it it will just leave stuff in an invalid state.
[20:29] <Hilikus> what's the right way to abort a do-release-upgrade
[20:29] <mango_> bekks -yes sorry, I meant to say ssh
[20:29] <bekks> mango_: How did you setup port forwarding using ssh then?
[20:30] <mango_> Hilikus: this is my ssh port forwarding command: ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-L 5692:localhost:5900
[20:30] <Hilikus> bekks: i do this every 6 months. i don't want to have a 2 year old OS
[20:30] <mango_> <IP_ADDRESS> is a listening vnc client on port 5962
[20:30] <bekks> Hilikus: Then you did not understand that LTS is getting patchesd for 5 years.
[20:31] <xamxam> " and press END keys to position your cursor at the end of the that line usually ending with “quiet splash”.
[20:31] <xamxam> Now you can type in additional kernel options like nomodeset"
[20:31] <Hilikus> doesn't matter. i don't want to update every 5 years
[20:31] <xamxam> so, i have to type "nomodeset" without quotes?
[20:32] <k1l_> xamxam: yes
[20:32] <xamxam> ok
[20:34] <xamxam> it has asked me again if i want to use low resolution, plus there are other options like if i want to troubleshoot graphic error
[20:36] <xamxam> i have selected " one time low resolution option"  and right now it is stuck at "stand by one minute while display restarts"
[20:39] <xamxam> ok, i have logged in, and it took me to the terminal
[20:39] <xamxam> what should i do now?
[20:41] <xamxam> i assume i have to uninstall whatever happened after the selection of nvidia propreitary drivers using "additional driver"
[20:43] <xristos_> can anyone tell me how to fix web browsing problems? it stucks on loading and nothing farther....any ideas?
[20:43] <Scoot> help: how do I exit X server so that I can install a nvidia driver?
[20:43] <xamxam> also used this command:  sudo apt-get nvidia-prime
[20:44] <xamxam> it told me that its already the newest version
[20:44] <xamxam> looks like nvidia-prime is already installed
[20:45] <xamxam> any help would be great
[20:47] <Scoot> I need help >> How do I exit X server so that I can install a nvidia driver?
[20:47] <deemo> hello there... installed 12.04 for Dreamstudio, ran updates and got this pop up details.http://paste.ubuntu.com/9303247/
[20:47] <bubbasaures> xristos_, Start it from the terminal, see what it says
[20:48] <Hilikus> what's the difference between a normal version and a development version? i imagine they use different apt-get repos to get packages (stable vs betas)?
[20:48] <xamxam> scoot: you are also stuck on black screen?
[20:49] <Hilikus> i'm wondering specifically about /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:49] <daftykins> Scoot: ctrl+alt+F1, login, "sudo service lightdm stop" - continue installing driver.
[20:49] <Scoot> xamxam: was... I had to restart. I tried a command I found online sudo service lightdm stop
[20:49] <xristos_> typping what in terminal? i'm new to linux
[20:49] <bubbasaures> xristos_, What browser and is it just not starting, you have to be clear.
[20:50] <Scoot> daftykins: after ctrl+alt+F1 I get a blank screen, what do I do from there?
[20:50] <xristos_> firefox and opens only home page nothing else...
[20:51] <bubbasaures> xristos_, From the beginning, is there any leading to this info?
[20:51] <daftykins> Scoot: try hitting enter a few times, or F2... F3...
[20:52] <Scoot> daftykins: k, this may boot me off... here goes...
[20:52] <daftykins> Scoot: yeah you need to know what you're doing next, before running the above...
[20:53] <daftykins> xristos_: so http://www.google.com in the address bar and nothing huh?
[20:53] <bunbury> hello all
[20:54] <xristos_> yes nothing, its only loading...and stays there doesn't open the page
[20:54] <daftykins> xristos_: do you have a proxy configured? go into firefox's settings and check
[20:54] <bunbury> whats good to view log files on 14.04 + ?
[20:55] <Scooter> daftykins: it booted me
[20:56] <daftykins> Guest40138: stopping lightdm stops X, which means no more GUI apps so you can install the driver... you can't have both things at once :)
[20:56] <symbiosis> bunbury: If you know what you are looking for you can just run something like cat /var/log/foo.log | grep mystring ... If you want to open it like a file, I prefer to use vim, but there are a million ways to solve this problem
[20:56] <xamxam> so, how should i install nvidia-prime?
[20:57] <daftykins> xamxam: i thought you ran "sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 nvidia-prime"
[20:57] <nmatrix9> Hey all I just noticed that my Nvidia settings no longer has the menu option to "configure" a monitor hence preventing me from running the twin view option on my dual monitor setup
[20:57] <bunbury> symbiosis : thanks. so vi /var/syslog/ msjnc ?
[20:57] <nmatrix9> Iam running 14.04
[20:57] <nmatrix9> Nvidia drivers, two monitors exact same model
[20:57] <xamxam> no, i just ran sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime
[20:57] <bunbury> symbiosis : Im following mad scientist script for juniper here http://mad-scientist.us/juniper.html
[20:57] <xristos_> no i didn't make any changes is on default settings, if this is helpfull...
[20:58] <xamxam> which is correct one? should i mention the driver version also?
[20:58] <daftykins> xamxam: run "dpkg -l | grep nvidia" please
[20:58] <bekks> bunbury: Every text editor is perfect for viewing log files.
[20:58] <Guest40138> daftykins: So how do i continue to install the nvidia driver when I can't see anything. I tried the F2... F3... and every combo known to man. Had to Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot.
[20:58] <nmatrix9> lol is everyone having issues with Nvidia in here?
[20:59] <bekks> nmatrix9: No, I dont have have issues with Nvidia.
[20:59] <bunbury> bekks : part of the question was where are logs for running that script. The one it makes just says permission denied. it says has to be run as non root
[20:59] <rypervenche> bunbury: I use vim for everything personally :) Editing files, viewing logs, etc. It has syntax coloring which is very useful.
[20:59] <bekks> bunbury: So you have to run it as root.
[20:59] <rypervenche> bunbury: Most logs require root privileges to be able to read them.
[20:59] <bekks> rypervenche: Most logs dont.
[21:00] <xamxam> daftykins: i just did, it didnt show any output.
[21:00] <bunbury> rypervenche : its a perm issue on mad scientist script for juniper. have any of you used it ?
[21:00] <daftykins> Guest40138: lol, clearly not every combo as F7 would've brought you back to teh GUI.
[21:00] <xamxam> looks like it was executed successfully.
[21:00] <daftykins> xamxam: really? are you sure you didn't typo nvidia?
[21:01] <xamxam> nope
[21:01] <daftykins> it should report that you at least installed nvidia-prime
[21:01] <kevindf> On my Ubuntu server, If I setup a UFW rule does this count for iptables also? Or would I have to add to UFW & iptables aswell?
[21:01] <rypervenche> bekks: Well the important ones require it at least. Perhaps "most" is not the correct one. But messages, mysql, etc. need it. But I digress.
[21:01] <daftykins> !ufw | kevindf
[21:02] <bunbury> Im trying Live Voyager 14. That is sexy defined lol.
[21:02] <Guest40138> daftykins: I actually did hit F7, but it was after I hit every other F? combo preceding it. But, when I did hit F7 it didn't do anything. Would it work if that was the only one I pushed initially you think??
[21:02] <EriC^^> Guest40138: it's alt+f7
[21:02] <daftykins> Guest40138: what graphics card is this?
[21:02] <xamxam> i am also in the middle of uninstalling all nvidia packages, may be thats the issue
[21:02] <symbiosis> bunbury: yes, vi would work just fine as well.  You can use any text editor however...whatever your heart desires.
[21:03] <daftykins> xamxam: you could have mentioned that...
[21:03] <Guest40138> daftykins & EriC^^: GeForce GTX 750ti
[21:03] <OerHeks> xam xam... somehowe you are doing stuff that cannot go together.
[21:03] <daftykins> oh this one still
[21:05] <daftykins> Guest40138: yeah, you need to find a guide like i mentioned the first time that shows you the complete process, either write it down or print it out *then* try :)
[21:05]  * l0rdn1x will be back in 45min to 1hr o()xxxx[{:::::L::::I::::N::::U:::::X::::::::::::>
[21:05] <daftykins> l0rdn1x: you're going to get shouted at for that away script... please disable it in here
[21:06] <xamxam> i have followed this for uninstallation: http://askubuntu.com/questions/41681/blank-screen-after-installing-nvidia-restricted-driver
[21:06] <xamxam> and i have been successfully able to log in using regular log in screen,
[21:06] <Hilikus> is there any risk over doing a do-release-upgrade with screen?
[21:06] <xamxam> that black screen is gone.
[21:07] <l0rdn1x> daftykins, that was suppose to be /me but the /a snuck inside.
[21:07] <daftykins> l0rdn1x: ;)
[21:07] <Guest40138> xamxam: I'm going to look at that link brb
[21:07] <daftykins> Guest40138: that wasn't for you!
[21:08] <daftykins> xamxam: yeah that link is useless
[21:08] <Guest40138> daftykins: oh lol
[21:08] <xamxam> lol
[21:08] <xamxam> it worked for me
[21:08] <daftykins> Guest40138: the clue was your nickname not being used :P
[21:08] <xamxam> sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 nvidia-prime
[21:08] <xamxam> should i run this?
[21:08] <daftykins> you can try yes
[21:09] <Guest40138> daftykins: this is the first time ive ever IRC'd. establishing a nick seems to be still be a little elusive...
[21:09] <daftykins> Guest40138: jump in #freenode and they'll be happy to help you out.
[21:10] <jhc76> how long does it take to clone a 2TB harddrives using dd @ bs=512
[21:10] <daftykins> how long is a piece of string?
[21:10] <rypervenche> jhc76: Quite a while. You should use something like bs=4M
[21:10] <Guest40138> join #freenode
[21:11] <bekks> jhc76: Ages. Use a sane blocksize, like 32M.
[21:11] <rypervenche> jhc76: You can check the progress by running "killall -USR1 dd" in another terminal
[21:11] <xamxam> moments after login i am presented with this error: sorry, ubuntu has experienced an internal error, executable path: usr/bin/Xorg
[21:11] <jhc76> ok... thanks bekks & rypervenche
[21:11] <xamxam> is it the side effect of uninstallation process?
[21:11] <rypervenche> jhc76: The progress will show up in the terminal in which you are running the dd command.
[21:11] <daftykins> xamxam: could be, the guide you followed was terrible.
[21:11] <daftykins> Guest40138: you need a leading /
[21:12] <xamxam> guess, i will have to reinstall ubuntu to make it right?
[21:12] <daftykins> don't think so.
[21:12] <daftykins> hard to tell what you've done now though :(
[21:13] <daftykins> xamxam: did you install nvidia-331 and nvidia-prime together yet?
[21:14] <xamxam> i am going to do it.
[21:14] <Prezident> Is there any program so i can see facebook status in terminal?
[21:15] <OerHeks> good question Prezident, never heard of that one
[21:15] <daftykins> lol.
[21:17] <xamxam> daftykins: that command has been successfully executed, i think.
[21:17] <xamxam> what now?
[21:18] <daftykins> reboot
[21:18] <daftykins> back shortly
[21:18] <xamxam> ok
[21:19] <xamxam> nope, nope, nope, nope, same black screen
[21:22] <mybox1776> I have a command/syntax question
[21:23] <bekks> mybox1776: So ask it :)
[21:23] <mybox1776> Is there a way, in the command FIND to add color to highlight when it finds what your're looking for?
[21:23] <mybox1776> For example, like grep --color=auto xyz >file
[21:24] <Toadlips> Anyone wanna help a brotha out with some basic security/file sharing/service running questions?
[21:24] <SchrodingersScat> !ask
[21:25] <bekks> mybox1776: Find only outputs what you are asking it to output. No need for colors at that point. :)
[21:25] <Toadlips> I shared out a folder via the file explorer frontend, but I see no configuration for it in the smb.conf file.  Where does it configure the shares?
[21:25] <mybox1776> I am looking through sendmail logs, and say, I need to highlight a session ID or whatever, and there are a tone all gobbled up
[21:26] <bekks> Toadlips: in the config of your file explorer. It does not use Samba.
[21:27] <Toadlips> bekks: that's what I was wondering.  The interesting thing is that it made me install samba when I created the share
[21:28] <EriC^^> mybox1776: find finds files
[21:28] <Toadlips> bekks: so I suppose I can't use the smb.conf to specify group permissions on a particular folder?
[21:29] <bekks> Toadlips: Of course you can. But have to create your shares using Samba then, not usig the file explorer.
[21:29] <EriC^^> mybox1776: if you're looking at a log with less, use /<pattern> to search for it and highlight it ( use n to select the next match )
[21:29] <mybox1776> Last time I checked, everything in UNIX and LINUX  IS a file
[21:29] <EriC^^> mybox1776: i meant it searches for the file names, not content
[21:30] <mybox1776> gotctah
[21:30] <Toadlips> bekks: sounds reasonable...what does that file explorer (not sure what the real name is) use to share the files, then?  Is there any more control available than what you see on the frontend?
[21:30] <mybox1776> That makes good sense, lemme try it
[21:31] <bekks> Toadlips: VFS, or something like that. I never used it for anything important.
[21:31] <abnormal> hi, I need to know the sudo command to install inxi.  can someone in here help me with this, I was guided here by arctictelecom.
[21:31] <Ben64> abnormal: sudo apt-get install inxi
[21:31] <bekks> abnormal: sudo apt-get install inxi ?
[21:32] <abnormal> it didn't work.
[21:32] <EriC^^> abnormal: enable the universe repo
[21:32] <abnormal> Reading package lists... Done
[21:32] <abnormal> Building dependency tree
[21:32] <abnormal> Reading state information... Done
[21:32] <abnormal> E: Unable to locate package inxi
[21:32] <Toadlips> bekks: maybe I should just go ahead and drop that share and then use samba.  I'm just trying to share out a folder to a Win7 machine on a workgroup.  I created a group and added a new user to it.  I'd like it to be read only access for that user, though.
[21:32] <EriC^^> abnormal: open the dash > software & sources
[21:32] <EriC^^> * & updates
[21:32] <Ben64> abnormal: what version ubuntu
[21:33] <abnormal> poresise
[21:33] <abnormal> presise
[21:33] <abnormal> 13 point something
[21:33] <Ben64> inxi isn't in precise
[21:33] <bekks> Toadlips: You're better off using samba then, yes. Win 7 Professional supports using NFS shares, too.
[21:33] <bekks> abnormal: Precise isnt 13 point something.
[21:33] <abnormal> ok what can I do to get inxi?
[21:33] <bekks> abnormal: Whats the output of "lsb_release -sd"?
[21:34] <Ben64> upgrade to 14.04
[21:34] <abnormal> min...
[21:34] <Toadlips> bekks: would you recommend nfs over samba?
[21:34] <bekks> Toadlips: I'd recommend everything over samba :)
[21:35] <John_John__> i need suggestions on what desktop to install
[21:35] <abnormal> abnormal@abnormal:~$ sudo lsb_release-sd
[21:35] <abnormal> sudo: lsb_release-sd: command not found
[21:35] <abnormal> abnormal@abnormal:~$
[21:35] <John_John__> in ubuntu server 14.04
[21:35] <Toadlips> bekks: heheheh!  OK, that's good, because after I added the libpam-smbpass library, I get "memory leaking" errors every time I type in a password
[21:35] <k1l_> abnormal: lsb_release -d
[21:35] <bekks> abnormal: Not the whitespace between lsb_release and -sd
[21:35] <k1l_> abnormal: mind the gap
[21:35] <Ben64> abnormal: you don't need to use sudo with that
[21:35] <Ben64> abnormal: only use sudo for things that require it, using it for every command is not a good idea
[21:36] <abnormal> ok
[21:36] <bekks> *Note even :)
[21:36] <abnormal> min...
[21:37] <OerHeks> John_John__, desktop on a server .. something light as openbox or xubuntu
[21:37] <John_John__> how exactly do i install it ?
[21:38] <OerHeks> sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[21:38] <John_John_> xubuntu better than openbox ?
[21:39] <Ben64> John_John_: nothing is really "better" than anything else, use what you like
[21:39] <OerHeks> that is an opinion, i guess, try it yourself?
[21:39] <bekks> xubuntu uses XFCE. And in terms of software, there is no "better", but just "personal decision".
[21:39] <rypervenche> Toadlips: Unless you have Windows machines that you need to be able to share with, NFS will be better.
[21:39] <abnormal> Description:	Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS
[21:40] <k1l_> !info inxi precise
[21:40] <abnormal> well that's nice...  ty
[21:41] <abnormal> ok then I will just have to live without it.
[21:41] <k1l_> abnormal: its not included for 12.04, its included since 14.04
[21:41] <Ben64> or upgrade to 14.04
[21:41] <flukethought> okay so the server became unresponsive again
[21:41] <flukethought> i don't know what to do
[21:41] <Toadlips> rypervenche: well, as it happens it is a Windows 7 machine that I'd like to be the client...will NFS still work?  I only require read only access to one share.  However, Ideally I would like ubuntu to be able to access a share on the Win7 machine, as well.
[21:41] <l2ksolkov> flukethought, is an external monitor hooked up?
[21:41] <flukethought> yes
[21:41] <k1l_> abnormal: see http://askubuntu.com/questions/284635/inxi-installation-on-ubuntu
[21:41] <abnormal> I can't upgrade to 14 cuz it will kill my lappy.
[21:41] <flukethought> and hello again 12k thank you for being so helpful
[21:41] <l2ksolkov> is it totally unresponsive? nothing on the screen?
[21:41] <xamxam> is it even possible to install nvidia-prime drivers and to not have a black screen afterwards?
[21:42] <bekks> xamxam: Yes.
[21:42] <Ben64> abnormal: what makes you say that
[21:42] <zerolegend> anyone that can helop me recover grub on my ubuntu system? I had another distro overwrite it and i forgot to restore it all before i rebooted and cannot get back into that. I have the live ubuntu distro booted
[21:42] <l2ksolkov> And why hello, flukethought
[21:42] <k1l_> xamxam: yes.
[21:42] <xamxam> I have tried several times now, and each time i had to uninstall drivers :(
[21:42] <abnormal> It's a Dell B120.. old, slow maching
[21:42] <flukethought> 12k yea screen went black
[21:42] <k1l_> xamxam: did you try the nomodeset setting in grub? did it help?
[21:42] <l2ksolkov> did you set the java flags to use 4GB of ram and not 6GB?
[21:43] <flukethought> yes
[21:43] <flukethought> 4096
[21:43] <xamxam> k1l_: yes, i did, and that error solved but only after i removed those drivers
[21:43] <k1l_> see the dmesg logs in /var/log/ (they get renamed on every reboot to +1)
[21:43] <flukethought> and from the looks of it it seemed to work out great over night and everything
[21:44] <flukethought> and then boom out of no where
[21:44] <k1l_> see what happens with the nvidia driver
[21:44] <flukethought> could it be garbage collection?
[21:44] <xamxam> i purged them, all of them. because they wont let me log in.
[21:44] <l2ksolkov> flukethought, did you ever try reseating the RAM?
[21:45] <flukethought> or something else that is effecting it the servers only job is minecraft which i don't get how vps can do flawlessly and a dedicated box can't
[21:45] <flukethought> the memory test showed nothing wrong
[21:45] <xamxam> shouldn't i try using drivers from nvidia website instead of what came in with ubuntu?
[21:45] <Ben64> xamxam: no
[21:45] <l2ksolkov> flukethought, just in case, try reseating it.
[21:45] <l2ksolkov> and anything else reseatable.
[21:45] <k1l_> xamxam: we are past the "we install random things and just hope" stage. lets see what the error is
[21:46] <flukethought> okay i can do that but to be honest shutting down the server hard wise is causing the world to become currupt
[21:46] <xamxam> k1l_: and how should i see that?
[21:46] <l2ksolkov> flukethought, that's why you always keep backups.
[21:47] <l2ksolkov> are you sure you cannot type anything into the computer with a keyboard and external monitor?
[21:47] <flukethought> yep nothing
[21:47] <k1l_> xamxam: i explained already
[21:47] <flukethought> i was running a pregen
[21:47] <flukethought> before the server crashed
[21:48] <abnormal> k1l_, it worked, thank you very much.
[21:48] <frankk> can someone give me a hand with an internet problem?
[21:49] <flukethought> is there some kinda crash log i can pull from the server to see what it is
[21:49] <l2ksolkov> i know the minecraft server has a log, i don't know about Linux/Ubuntu though.
[21:49] <xamxam> should i post my dmesg log here?
[21:50] <daftykins> !paste
[21:50] <flukethought> 12k by anychance do u have any remote software
[21:50] <l2ksolkov> i do.
[21:50] <flukethought> u can use to view my pc that is running ssh
[21:50] <rypervenche> Toadlips: As far as I know, NFS does not work on Windows. You'll probably want to set up a samba server on your Windows machine and then have your Ubuntu machine be able to access it.
[21:50] <xamxam> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9305288/
[21:52] <xamxam> i dont have any nvidia drivers installed on my system as of now. i think i should mention it here.
[21:53] <frankk> is anyone free to help with an internet issue on lubuntu?
[21:53] <bekks> !ask | frankk
[21:53] <Nach0z> every time I read "lubuntu" I can't help but pronounce it as "lube"untu
[21:53] <Nach0z> makes me chuckle
[21:54] <frankk> alright. i just installed lubuntu and the internet is slow. it takes 20 minutes to load a webpage
[21:55] <xamxam> frankk, did you try changing the dns?
[21:55] <frankk> no, how do i do that?
[21:56] <Toadlips> rypervenche: thanks, rypervenche!  Yes, it looks like I should use samba for the share...
[21:56] <k1l_> xamxam: see the dmesg.0 log from the start with the nvidia drivers enabled
[21:56] <Nach0z> frankk: /etc/hosts
[21:56] <Nach0z> it's a text file
[21:56] <skierpage> frankk, run a speed test in the browser, e.g. http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/best-internet-speed-tests/  (Caution, many ISPs detect you're running a speedtest and magically it gets faster.)
[21:56] <bekks> Nach0z: Nope. /etc/resolv.conf
[21:56] <Nach0z> wait yeah
[21:56] <Nach0z> not hosts, that's manual dns entries >_<
[21:57] <bekks> Nach0z: And using network-manager, you're better using network-manager instead editing those files manually.
[21:57] <xamxam> k1l_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9305369/
[21:58] <skierpage> It would be nice if you could download a file straight into usb creator. Who bothers with .isos and burning a disk in 2014?
[21:58] <bekks> skierpage: Just download the iso and use dd - no need for usbcreator in 2014 :)
[21:59] <OerHeks> that file will still be an iso, skierpage
[21:59] <daftykins> skierpage: ^
[21:59] <skierpage> bekks: really? I thought USB creator did the magic to make the USB bootable.
[22:00] <daftykins> skierpage: newp
[22:00] <k1l_> xamxam: what laptop is that?
[22:00] <xamxam> n5110, dell inspiron
[22:01] <k1l_> xamxam: please show a "lspci" in a pastebin
[22:01] <owen1> I 'Override software rendering list' and 'Enable WebGL' in chrome://flags but http://get.webgl.org say I don't have WebGL support. I also tried running chrome with --disable-gpu-watchdog but it doesn't help. Firefox runs WebGL just fine. I have the same issue with chromium-browser package (39.0.2171.65 Ubuntu 14.10) and also with chrome (39.0.2171.71). Any ideas?
[22:01] <xamxam> is it a terminal command?
[22:01] <frankk_> i tried to run /etc/hosts and it said permission denied. i tried to run it as root and nothing happened. also with the speed test full webpages wont even load. i dont think i can do it
[22:01] <k1l_> xamxam: yes
[22:02] <nmatrix9> I just found out that twinview is not available in 304 and up?  Why is that?
[22:02] <nmatrix9> for Nvidia drivers
[22:02] <xamxam> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9305430/
[22:02] <Guest54535> Soo .. I've been playing Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup v.13 recently and decided to try and upgrade it to v.15. After much hours learning apt commands, editing source.list, etc I finally managed to get the server for v.15 recognised on my 'apt update' list. Now a new error occurs telling me v.15 depends on a package called Liblua5.1-0. I can't reinstall v.13 because of the same dependancy.
[22:03] <xamxam> " Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 High Definition Audio Controller"  This is so wrong. i have an IDT soundcard
[22:04] <daftykins> xamxam: that's the HDMI port, you're wrong :)
[22:04] <Guest54535> My question is, why can't I re-install a program I was able to use earlier today? I don't think I've updated my system at all, and if I could already run v.13 i must have had liblua5.1-0. Only now it seems to have gone ..
[22:04] <nmatrix9> This is nvidia twinview setup is driving me nuts
[22:05] <Guest54535> Is there a system restore like function in ubuntu?
[22:06] <daftykins> nmatrix9: don't know off hand but i think twinview is ancient talk, 304 is an ancient driver too. all you want is two screens up at once right?
[22:06] <xamxam> daftykins: thanks for correction, but shouldn't it be listing sound card here instead of HDMI port?
[22:06] <daftykins> xamxam: Linux sees all devices, that's one of them :) i'm sure the other one is there too
[22:06] <daftykins> sometimes under names you don't recognise from, e.g. Windows
[22:07] <nmatrix9> daftykins, I have two screens up problem is my second monitor is stuck at 800x600
[22:07] <bubbasaures> Guest54535, Not a full system, describe what you need.
[22:07] <daftykins> nmatrix9: won't nvidia-settings correct it?
[22:08] <xamxam> Nope, my sound card is not even in that list. i dont know how ubuntu is managing sound here on my system.
[22:08] <daftykins> if it works, don't fix it.
[22:08] <nmatrix9> daftykins, Monitors are the exact same model, connected to same video card, just that second monitor can only do 800x600 max while second monitor has more options for higher resolutions.
[22:08] <nmatrix9> *Primary monitor
[22:09] <nmatrix9> This is ridiculous
[22:09] <gopnikda> hay
[22:10] <Guest54535> Honestly I'm not entirely sure what I need. My issue is pretty vague.
[22:10] <daftykins> nmatrix9: right so, what does nvidia-settings offer ?
[22:10] <xamxam> nvidia-prime must be missing my laptop :v
[22:11] <nmatrix9> daftykins, monitor2 max: 800x600, monitor1: max 1440 x 900
[22:11] <daftykins> nmatrix9: right but can't you select monitor2 and change resolution in there?
[22:12] <bubbasaures> Guest54535, It seems you just messed with the sources to get what you wanted not really understanding. Anything removed or ticked '#' off?
[22:13] <Toadlips> ok, so I attempted to set up a share in samba.  I created a group (winusers) and added a user (winuser).  I believe I set up the share in the smb.conf file: [winusers] path=/path/to/folder comment = Shared Media writeable  = no valid users = winuser
[22:13] <Guest54535> I'm pretty sure I've left source.list intact, minus what I'd added.
[22:13] <nmatrix9> daftykins, I can select it but the monitor settings have max resolution of 800x600
[22:13] <bubbasaures> Guest54535, Where any added you've removed PPA's?
[22:13] <nmatrix9> daftykins, for the second monitor
[22:13] <xamxam> i am thinking of doing a bumbleebee instead of nvidia-prime
[22:14] <k1l_> xamxam: see line 860 from dmesg log
[22:15] <Toadlips> I can see the share from my Windows machine, but winuser user does not seem to have access
[22:16] <xamxam> k1l_: [    9.005193] [drm] Wrong MCH_SSKPD value: 0x16040307
[22:16] <k1l_> xamxam: yes, and the 2 next lines
[22:16] <bubbasaures> Guest54535, Not sure if or what you have removed nor if you used sources.list.d. There is a ppa-purge option that reverts the added to the ubuntu repos version, not sure on relevance in this game any ppa that is.
[22:16] <xamxam> it makes sense....
[22:16] <xamxam> lol
[22:17] <Guest54535> Its okay bubb, I don't think I'll be solving this problem any time soon. I'll come back when I'm a bit more learned.
[22:17] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: what does xrandr say?
[22:17] <xamxam> i did this stupid uefi unlock thing, which may have messed up my bios
[22:17] <daftykins> xamxam: ugh now you tell us you did some weird quirk :P
[22:17] <daftykins> xamxam: i no longer trust a single thing with your setup, you might want to resolve all of that first.
[22:18] <bubbasaures> Guest54535, Cool, your bash run in the terminal has a history, you can somewhat retrace your steps.
[22:18] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, http://pastebin.com/U4ycdZPK
[22:18] <xamxam> ok, i will just install latest available default bios. will give it a try then.
[22:19] <Guest49410> When I boot my Ubuntu, I get this message ... "init : Error while reading from descriptor : Broken pipe" preceded by a number.  What does that mean?
[22:20] <EriC^^> looks like init can't read from a file descriptor
[22:20] <l0rdn1x> How does he fix that?
[22:20] <EriC^^> Guest49410: did it come up after installing nvidia drivers?
[22:21] <nomic> does it still boot?
[22:21] <nmatrix9> daftykins, why was twinview removed?
[22:21] <Guest49410> EriC^^: I don't remember installing nvidia drivers
[22:21] <EriC^^> Guest49410: did it work before?
[22:21] <daftykins> nmatrix9: like i said i don't know for sure - also you're running nvidia proprietary drivers, ask nvidia not us :)
[22:21] <daftykins> nmatrix9: see if you can find anything online
[22:22] <Guest49410> EriC^^: It is recently that I see the problem during boot
[22:22] <nmatrix9> daftykins, Iam using the ppa/edge drivers
[22:22] <daftykins> edgers?
[22:22] <nmatrix9> daftykins, I found a whole lot online, some clear, some confusing and not a whole lot helpful.
[22:22] <bazhang> !twinview | nmatrix9
[22:22] <nmatrix9> bazhang, please read up top
[22:23] <EriC^^> Guest49410: 14.10 ?
[22:26] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, from the xrandr -q is there a way to use xrandr to force my dvi-i-3 to have more resolutions?
[22:26] <nmatrix9> I mean just xrandr
[22:28] <bazhang> !find civet
[22:28] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: try xrandr --newmode "1366x768" 85.86  1368 1440 1584 1800  768 769 772 795  -HSync +Vsync
[22:28] <EriC^^> it's a long shot
[22:28] <nmatrix9> while still in X?
[22:28] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: yeah
[22:29] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, the frequency a bit too high I'll play it safe and stick with 75
[22:29] <EriC^^> it's 1366 x 768 @ 60Hz
[22:30] <EriC^^> use gtf 1366 768 60 ( for example ) to get any modeline you want
[22:33] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, ok I ran it should something happend?
[22:36] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: try xrandr --addmode dvi-... "1366x768"
[22:36] <chipotlefan> Anyone here good with partitioning Windows 7?
[22:37] <bekks> chipotlefan: You might better ask in ##windows :)
[22:37] <chipotlefan> well I'm doing it for the purpose of installing ubuntu
[22:38] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) . . .
[22:38] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: then xrandr --output dvi... --mode "1366x768"
[22:38] <BoD`away> Hi!  Does anybody know what is the 'official' GUI way to uninstall a font?  I just can't find how to do that with Font Manager.  Any idea?
[22:38] <bubbasaures> chipotlefan, In general you want to use it's partitioner if you can if resizing. a ##windows issue
[22:38] <chipotlefan> oookay I'll go check out ##windows
[22:39] <purgos> chipotlefan windows 7 has a built in partitioner look for disk management in andinistrative tools
[22:41] <xamxam> i have reverted to original bios, now how should i proceed about installation of nvidia-prime? i want to start from scratch.
[22:41] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: you could try xrandr --fb 1366x768
[22:41] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: you might need to reopen the apps though
[22:42] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, reopen the apps?  close all apps and start it up again?
[22:42] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: try xrandr --fb
[22:42] <EriC^^> it might do something funky though
[22:42] <EriC^^> never tried it..
[22:42] <mneuro> Is there a list anywhere of fixes to get Ubuntu 14.04 working on a chromebook?
[22:43] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, xrandr --fb 1366x768
[22:43] <nmatrix9> xrandr: specified screen 1366x768 not large enough for output DVI-I-2 (1440x900+800+0)
[22:43] <nmatrix9> xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed
[22:46] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: try xrandr --output dvi-.. --scale 1.5x1.5
[22:49] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, it shrank it but I believe the view port out is still stuck at 800x600, the second monitor is blurry as heck
[22:50] <l0rdn1x> What if your trying to grep something but the text your trying to grep for happens to have a regular expression inside of the file????
[22:50] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, I checked the nvidia-settings yep, the viewPortin and panning changed but the viewportout is still 800x600
[22:50] <l0rdn1x> In other words how do you grep for characters that are used for regular expressions?
[22:50] <Bashing-om> nmatrix9: Have you seen: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution ? Maybe of some help.
[22:51] <EriC^^> l0rdn1x: "\"
[22:51] <l0rdn1x> EriC^^, so \ before the expression?
[22:52] <EriC^^> yup
[22:52] <l0rdn1x> k thanks
[22:53] <l0rdn1x> EriC^^, so if I was looking for three dollar signs it would be \$\$\$ last question lol
[22:53] <EriC^^> l0rdn1x: yup
[22:54] <EriC^^> :D
[22:54] <lustic> hey I installed a 32 bit emulator with "sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i Gens_2.16.7_i386.deb
[22:54] <lustic> "  and now I cannot seem to remove it ? help
[22:54] <l0rdn1x> EriC^^, awesome thanks ;)
[22:54] <EriC^^> no problem
[22:54] <lustic> because I have 64 bit, obviously I should have mentioned
[22:54] <lustic> how do I remove this now ?
[22:56] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: ok, try to do --scale 0.25x0.25
[22:57] <EriC^^> lustic: what's the package called?
[22:57] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, it ballooned up, did you see my pastbin I put up fo xrandr -q?
[22:58] <lustic> sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i Gens_2.16.7_i386.deb
[22:58] <lustic> it's a sega emulator,  thats how I installed it
[22:58] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, half the screen filled up with a corner of a window
[22:58] <EriC^^> lustic: ok, what's the package's name?
[22:58] <EriC^^> genesis something?
[22:58] <lustic> Gens_2.16.7_i386.deb
[22:59] <EriC^^> i mean the name of the application
[22:59] <EriC^^> not the filename
[22:59] <lustic> Gens/gs
[22:59] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, if I can just figure how to set the viewport out to 1440x900 we'd be golden
[22:59] <EriC^^> ok try dpkg -l | grep gens
[22:59] <Toadlips2> I have a user who is a member of a group (winusers), and the group permissions show r-x, but he can't open the directory...the user does not have a home directory assigned.  Does that matter?
[23:00] <lustic> okay eric yes and
[23:00] <lustic> it shows this " lustic@local01:~$ dpkg -l | grep gens
[23:00] <lustic> iU  gens                                                  2.16.7                                              i386         Sega Genesis, Sega CD, and Sega 32X emulator"
[23:00] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: ok this should bring it close to normal --scale 2.5x2.5
[23:01] <EriC^^> lustic: hmm
[23:01] <BoD> so ... nobody knows how to uninstall a font? [except from the command line] ?
[23:02] <EriC^^> lustic: i think it's half installed or something, ii means installed iU i forgot
[23:02] <EriC^^> ah, it means it's still unconfigured
[23:02] <lustic> sudo apt-get remove gens   , this has seemed to work
[23:02] <EriC^^> yeah
[23:03] <lustic> cool thanks tho, helped me get to the bottom of it
[23:03] <EriC^^> !info gens
[23:03] <Glitch> Hi, I'm having a problem with rsync
[23:03] <EriC^^> no problem
[23:03] <lustic> it's off my system now,  ( : cheers
[23:03] <lustic> I always come here when things get tricky, always works, ciao !
[23:03] <Glitch> I keep getting "@ERROR: auth failed on module sync
[23:03] <Glitch> rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1653) [sender=3.1.0]
[23:03] <Glitch> " after entering the password
[23:05] <Toadlips2> I have a user who is a member of a group (winusers), and the group permissions show r-x, but he can't open the directory...any ideas?
[23:05] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, made it even worse, I reverted it back
[23:06] <nmatrix9> EriC^^, it's like the screen primary was stretched across the two monitors
[23:07] <EriC^^> Toadlips2: did you just add him to the group?
[23:07] <Toadlips2> EriC^^: I added him a while ago...a couple of reboots ago...I can verify that he's part of the group
[23:08] <EriC^^> what directories are leading to the directory? does he have "x" access to them?
[23:08] <Glitch> Anyone on here with any experience with rsync?
[23:08] <nmatrix9> Iam still ticked about why the they removed the twinview configuration option out of nvidia settings.  Why fix something that ain't broken???
[23:08] <nmatrix9> Brilliant
[23:09] <daftykins> i might've just been wrong
[23:09] <daftykins> put it in your xorg.conf and see if it works
[23:09] <daftykins> if you don't have one, create it
[23:10] <EriC^^> Toadlips2: ^^
[23:10] <Toadlips2> EriC^^: Yes, it looks like he does have access to all of them now, but I did just do that with a chown -R.  There is a "+" on the one directory he can't get to...
[23:10] <EriC^^> Toadlips2: he owns all the directories before it?
[23:11] <EriC^^> still does he have "x" access to them?
[23:11] <Toadlips2> EriC^^: Actually, the owner is root, and I changed the group to winusers (his group)
[23:12] <EriC^^> ok, what about the directories leading to it, does he have "x" ?
[23:12] <EriC^^> ( not ownership )
[23:12] <Glitch> Nevermind, I figured out the problem, just another error message with no useful information
[23:13] <Toadlips2> Eric^^: Actually, the very first directory is owned by root and the group is also root, not winusers.  He can access that directory, though, so I'm not sure that's a problem?
[23:13] <EriC^^> if he can cd to it it's not a problem
[23:14] <EriC^^> you can check what the "+" is about with getfacl <dir>
[23:16] <Toadlips2> EriC^^: you might be onto something!  When I do the getfacl, it shows the group, but then it lists some more stuff and shows group::---
[23:16] <Toadlips2> EriC^^: I should mention that I mount this filesystem in the fstab
[23:17] <EriC^^> which dir is this?
[23:17] <Bashing-om> Toadlips2: the "+" at the end of the permissions. That usually means an ACL is in force and controlling permissions.
[23:17] <Toadlips2> EriC^^: it's the /media/<username> directory
[23:18] <EriC^^> i see
[23:20] <Toadlips2> EriC^^: Here's the fstab mounting: /dev/disk/by-uuid/2e0f1bbe-db78-432f-9cb4-c36e00b08892 /media/corey/MOFOSTO auto nosuid,nodev,nofail
[23:21] <Toadlips2> Bashing-om: Yes, it does seem that the ACL is enforcing some permissions that are causing some trouble...question is whether or not it's something to do with the way I mount the filesystem in the fstab...
[23:21] <arvut> Toadlips2: have you tried without the CAPS mountpoint?
[23:22] <cicero_> cara nao concigo stala o flecheplae

[23:22] <arvut> cicero_: ciao!!!
[23:23] <Toadlips2> arvut: well, the mounting works for me, the problem I have is related to security...it seems there is an ACL attached to this file...I'm guessing I can remove that ACL, but will it come back next time I mount it?
[23:23] <EriC^^> Toadlips2: if you want you can add the group, sudo setfacl -m g:winusers:rx /media/<username>

[23:28] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: ok :)
[23:28] <benzhninja> sup?
[23:29] <Toadlips2> Eric^^:  thanks, that seemed to work!  winuser can now access that directory!  Do you think that ACL will change at all next time I boot up and that filesystem is mounted?  Just want to make sure it's a permantent change.

[23:29] <benzhninja> help
[23:29] <EriC^^> Toadlips2: i think it should be fine
[23:31] <EriC^^> Toadlips2: it's permanent
[23:32] <Dragin> Can someone please look at this pastebin and tell me what I am doing wrong? I am trying to untar this file so I can install it. http://pastebin.com/CcihbJEu Thanks to anyone that can take the time to help.
[23:32] <Toadlips2> Eric^^: Thanks, I appreciate it!  Still having my original problem, though...can't access the samba share using that user...I figured the first step would be to make sure the user had permissions to the directory!  I can see the share from my win7 machine, but it says access denied when I enter credentials.
[23:34] <NigeyS> anyone know if this error if anything to fuss about if i'm not using kerberos over nfs... RPC: AUTH_GSS upcall failed. Please check user daemon is running.
[23:34] <daftykins> Dragin: no z
[23:34] <Dragin> no z?
[23:34] <daftykins> tar -xvf grig...
[23:34] <Dragin> ahhh
[23:35] <Dragin> thanks daftykins =)
[23:35] <daftykins> np!
[23:35] <Dragin> that did it =)
[23:35] <daftykins> Dragin: when you're unsure with command switches, a quick "man tar" will let you check each of them :)
[23:35] <daftykins> (q to quit from the man page reader)
[23:35] <Dragin> ok
[23:36]  * EriC^^ is confused, isn't z for gunzip?
[23:40] <trism> EriC^^: the z was fine in this case but not needed, the problem was the order of the arguments (xvfz) since f takes the filename
[23:40] <EriC^^> trism: ah ok, thanks :)
[23:41] <Toadlips2> EriC^^: Thanks for your help today!  You got me one step closer...gotta go put some lights on the tree.   I had an earlier bootable linux on the USB drive, maybe usb creator found the existing bootloader.
[23:44] <EriC^^> nmatrix9: no idea man
[23:44] <skierpage> guess I'll reboot and see what happens
[23:45] <moshpit> hello everybody
[23:45] <moshpit> I might need some help with some Bluetooth prolem
[23:45] <moshpit> problem*
[23:45] <Obnoxious> Hey, my laptop won't come out of sleep properly, and I was wondering if anyone knew anything that might be causing it? What I do is close the lid, wait for my laptop to go into sleep/hibernate/whatever mode, open the lid(?).  If I move my mouse, I get to xfce's login screen. Once I login, I am greeted by yet another black screen, but I can't get out of that one.
[23:45] <arvut> not my problem
[23:46] <moshpit> I have a trusted device, that's not reconnecting after switching it off
[23:46] <EriC^^> Obnoxious: i had that with the proprietary drivers
[23:46] <Obnoxious> I can provide logs/outputs of whatever, I just need to know what to give you guys.
[23:46] <moshpit> It's a wii U pro controller. It's driving me nuts.
[23:47] <EriC^^> Obnoxious: try the open source driver if you want
[23:47] <Obnoxious> EriC^^: Hm, I see. Is there a way to completely get rid of the proprietary drivers? I installed them to (try to) fix HDMI, but it still isn't working. I'll hmmmm, try that, then.
[23:47] <EriC^^> Obnoxious: open the dash > additional drivers
[23:48] <Obnoxious> Also, unrelated to the whole sleep thing, does HDMI out work properly with the open source drivers?
[23:49] <EriC^^> Obnoxious: yeah
[23:49] <EriC^^> at least here
[23:49] <Obnoxious> Okay good, then I guess my problem with HDMI has nothing to do with my drivers.
[23:50] <EriC^^> using the -ati open source driver
[23:52] <EriC^^> Obnoxious: yeah
[23:52] <moshpit> :(
