[00:00] <gde33> some more elaborate text in the dialogs would smoothen things out a lot
[00:01] <SchrodingersScat> gde33: how do you mean?
[00:01] <Porta> mier...
[00:01] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: baking the live cd on the usb stick and booting it went supper smooth
[00:02] <Porta> shit
[00:02] <Jacruth> hello, I would like to know what files I should modify in order to change the background using the shell, not the settings manager
[00:02] <Porta> what?
[00:02] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: I have a few the same disks, it wasn't so easy to figure out what disk to put the install on, where to put the boot thingy, how to create a swap and what size to make it
[00:02] <ikonia> just use the setting manager
[00:03] <ikonia> it's better to interface with gnome that way
[00:03] <ikonia> thats why the tools are there - for you to use
[00:03] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: I ended up guessing right a lot of times in a row :D
[00:03] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: I put all 3 on an empty disk, set it up to book on that one in the bios then to my surprice the xp boot was still available :)
[00:04] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: the disks have different names in bios/widows xp/file browser/installer
[00:04] <SchrodingersScat> gde33: hah, that's good.
[00:05] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: I ended up unmounting all but the right one in the file browser so that it would throw an error for the correct disk
[00:05] <cristianjose> Who can speak Spanish??
[00:06] <SchrodingersScat> !es | cristianjose
[00:06] <cristianjose> okk ubottu
[00:07] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: then I had to install kvirc of course and vlc, vlc froze the desktop (haha) had to install the nvidea driver, had to set vlc to open gl (but which one?)
[00:07] <Jacruth> ikonia: it's because I am customizing my own build :)
[00:07] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: I think it would be cool if ubuntu could find the firefox profile in the windows installation
[00:08] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: discovering that that works was kinda awesome :D
[00:08] <Porta> alguien hablar español?
[00:08] <antonispgs> !es Porta
[00:08] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: have all the passwords, cookies, extensions, greasemonkey scripts etc etc
[00:08] <Porta> ?
[00:08] <SchrodingersScat> gde33: that makes a lot of assumptions, and like you say you can port that over as you please.  That's generally easy to backup.
[00:08] <antonispgs> !es
[00:09] <antonispgs> !sp
[00:09] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: I didn't know if it worked, kvirc was very upset when I offered it a windows config :D
[00:09] <cristianjose> ubottu you know English
[00:10] <gde33> SchrodingersScat: but the overal impression is really good, I should have switched long ago
[00:10] <SchrodingersScat> quite
[00:10] <cristianjose> umm ok Thanks for the info ubottu
[00:11] <ikonia> Jacruth: not sure why you need the command line to customize your oown build
[00:11] <ikonia> own build
[00:12] <ikonia> just change the desktop wall paper in the build
[00:12] <binary01> hi all, i am stuck in loop at the login screen. i tried deleting .Xauthority but that isnt working. does anyone know how to fix this?
[00:13] <Jacruth> ikonia: because I am mounting an ISO image, so I have all the files and I am using chroot to customize it
[00:14] <ssarah> binary01, try going to shell and creating a new user with a home, then try logging with him, using the ui
[00:16] <binary01> ssarah: thanks. ill try that
[00:17] <gde33> is there some way in the file browser to see how full disks are?
[00:19] <SchrodingersScat> gde33: shows me that under my file browser's "Properties" for a directory.
[00:22] <binary01> ssarah: unfortunately that didnt work. after i enter a password it just goes back to login
[00:25] <mxmasster> hello all
[00:25] <SchrodingersScat> Hello!
[00:26] <mxmasster> :)
[00:26] <mxmasster> i just installed lts 14.04 on a dell r410 - everything with the installer worked fine (no errors)
[00:26] <gleaker> anyone here use fluxbox by chance?
[00:26] <mxmasster> on reboot the system complails that it cannot find the root device (missing modules)
[00:26] <mxmasster> and drops to a busybox shell
[00:26] <ssarah> interesting. I would now tell you to check a log file somewhere, but I don't know which file logs the errors for the UI/login manager you are using. Maybe someone here can tell you? Or you can google. Other than that you can try a good old apt-get update > apt-get install -f > apt-get dist-upgrade and see if that fixes anything.
[00:26] <ssarah> binary01 ^
[00:28] <Guest92557> asdf
[00:28] <Guest92557> f
[00:30] <binary01> ssarah: thanks for the help. it doesnt seem to be working though. ill keep reading though
[00:30] <CY_Genre> Hey everyone.. could use a little help with something if someone here has the time...
[00:31] <hermande> CY_Genre, ask.
[00:31] <CY_Genre> hermande, thank you in advance
[00:31] <CY_Genre> I'm trying to install a program with the sudo command and running into some isssues
[00:31] <CY_Genre> issues*
[00:32] <hermande> Anybody know the difference between the Satelite and Remote when discussing icinga?
[00:32] <hermande> CY_Genre, What program?
[00:32] <hermande> CY_Genre, Is it in the distro?
[00:33] <CY_Genre> I've gotten as far as extracting it to the necessary directory but then I'm meant to invoke permissions to the extracted directory
[00:33] <CY_Genre> hermande, utorrent, trusty
[00:34] <CY_Genre> im not sure if it's in the distro, it didn't seem to be but at the same time i'm really new to all this :/
[00:36] <Bashing-om> CY_Genre: This work : ' apt-cache show qbittorrent ' ?
[00:36] <hermande> Have you tried bittornado?
[00:36] <hermande> utorrent isn't directly support by Ubuntu.
[00:36] <hermande> ctorrent is another client.
[00:36] <hermande> Transmission is a pretty good GUI torrent client.
[00:36] <CY_Genre> hermande, not particularly interested in an alternative program tbh. just wish to learn how to install this one to get myself started
[00:37] <almark> but what's wrong with transmission?
[00:37] <CY_Genre> im not attesting to anything being wrong with it
[00:37] <almark> ok
[00:38] <hermande> Did you download the ubuntu package?
[00:38] <CY_Genre> hermande, yes, I acquired the correct package for my distro
[00:39] <hermande> CY_Genre, Then it's pertty simple....  sudo dpkg --install (insert package name here)
[00:39] <CY_Genre> hermande, i can extract it, it's sitting in /opt , and i can cp it to /usr/bin but beyond that i've hit roadblock getting the extracted destination to keep permissions for use
[00:40] <CY_Genre> hermande, wait what?
[00:40] <CY_Genre> hermande, so, you're saying there's a simple straight forward command for me to do this without all the hoopla?..
[00:40] <Dylan____> Can i connect my fitbit charge hr to my ubuntu computer and sync?
[00:41] <hermande> CY_Genre, Yep...  The benefits of packaging and modular design.
[00:41] <hermande> CY_Genre, It's been around since about '95.
[00:41] <Dylan____> I have the mbp 7,1
[00:41] <CY_Genre> like i said, im new to all this. i just want to be able to understand as much as i can is all
[00:42] <Dylan____> What you need help with genre?
[00:42] <CY_Genre> Dylan____, hey , i think i talked with you the other night, yeah we have the same mpb i believe
[00:42] <hermande> CY_Genre, I think you will find the other torrent clients suggested will be much easier.
[00:42] <Dylan____> Yeah we do
[00:42] <CY_Genre> im gonna try this script and see if it works
[00:43] <CY_Genre> brb
[00:43] <Dylan____> Im trying to find out if a fitbit charge hr can sync etc with ubuntu
[00:43] <Dylan____> Or if it really applies to only macs and windows
[00:44] <hermande> Dylan____, Have you tried https://bitbucket.org/benallard/galileo?
[00:45] <Dylan____> No not uet
[00:45] <Dylan____> But im not sure if it only supports few
[00:45] <hermande> Dylan____, Simple PPA and off to the races....
[00:45] <Dylan____> But if it supports the fitbit charge hr well i might be getting somewhere
[00:45] <Dylan____> Ill try it and get back to you
[00:46] <hermande> Dylan____, Then if that fails... you are probably using an ANT device... https://github.com/openyou/libfitbit
[00:46] <Dylan____> Ok
[00:46] <CY_Genre> hermande, errors were encounter while processing
[00:47] <CY_Genre> encounterd*
[00:47] <CY_Genre> is this a command i can use to install without extracting the tar first?
[00:47] <hermande> Yes....
[00:48] <hermande> CY_Genre, it'll look something like this:  sudo dpkg --inistall mygreatprogram.deb
[00:49] <hermande> CY_Genre, Let's try that again....  sudo dpkg --install mygreatprogram.deb
[00:49] <hermande> CY_Genre, The file extension of ".DEB" designates a debian style program package.
[00:50] <CY_Genre> im running trusty tahr
[00:50] <CY_Genre> file extension is tar.gz
[00:50] <hermande> CY_Genre, Then you have the wrong download.
[00:51] <hermande> CY_Genre, Look for the ubuntu download.
[00:51] <SchrodingersScat> hermande: they don't offer a .deb, I just checked
[00:51] <CY_Genre> it is the ubuntu download for 13.04
[00:51] <CY_Genre> right, they don't offer the deb at all, not for trusty
[00:52] <hermande> CY_Genre, SchrodingersScat ....  Yep... No longer directly supported.....
[00:53] <SchrodingersScat> well, it was never supported here
[00:54] <hermande> I remember it simply sucked.....
[00:54] <hermande> CY_Genre, Try bittornado...
[00:54] <hermande> CY_Genre, "sudo apt-get install bittornado"
[00:55] <hermande> CY_Genre, Simple install/check and uninstall if it doesn't work.
[00:55] <SchrodingersScat> it doesn't even seem that sophisticated
[00:56] <SchrodingersScat> !torrent | CY_Genre: there are docs though, read that if you really want this. Or you can try any one of these better options
[00:56] <SchrodingersScat> !P
[00:56] <CY_Genre> i may just have to settle for an alternative
[00:57] <CY_Genre> i'll look into one in a bit
[00:57] <CY_Genre> i do have another question though
[00:57] <hermande> CY_Genre, I think you are in store for a major upgrade.
[00:57] <SchrodingersScat> hermande: it's a binary, because presumably it's proprietary filth
[00:57] <CY_Genre> gotcha
[00:57] <CY_Genre> how do i disable the "switcher" gesture in touchpad?
[00:58] <hermande> SchrodingersScat, proprietary doesn't hurt if it's well maintained.
[00:58] <CY_Genre> it's annoying and through use im inadvertently enabling it
[00:58] <CY_Genre> alt/tab will suffice and is my go to anyways
[01:02] <skjones> i'm sure i'm missing something simple, but the new software center in 16.04 (in live cd mode) seems to only show software already installed?  how does it show all software?
[01:02] <sruli> hi, what day in april is 16.04 released?
[01:02] <bluefive> What do you think of the beta 2 ISO of Unity?
[01:03] <squinty> skjones, #ubuntu+1
[01:03] <bluefive> 16.04 beta 2.
[01:03] <skjones> squinty, tried it, no response from users
[01:03] <bluefive> Can I auto update to the latest stable once it's released if I use that beta until then?
[01:03] <squinty> bluefive, ubuntu+1
[01:03] <squinty> please read /topic
[01:03] <skjones> sruli, 21st i think
[01:03] <sruli> thanks
[01:04] <sruli> is the final beta for 16.04 released yet?
[01:04] <bluefive> Isn't beta 2 the final beta?
[01:04] <sruli> when was that released?
[01:05] <CY_Genre> hermande, why would you suggest a "major upgrade"?
[01:05] <bluefive> March 21.
[01:05] <hermande> utorrent is know to have issues.
[01:05] <bluefive> Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus) Beta 2
[01:05] <hermande> CY_Genre, Most of the current torrent clients are very slick.
[01:05] <sruli> thanks, i guess to upgrade to final release from beta 2 wont be a issue, right?
[01:06] <CY_Genre> sorry if I missed your suggestion but which would you recommend for my distro?
[01:06] <CY_Genre> deluge?
[01:06] <xangua> CY_Genre: Ubuntu comes with transmission
[01:06] <xangua> ! Torrent
[01:06] <hermande> CY_Genre, Are you a GUI or command line type of guy?
[01:07] <CY_Genre> I'm aiming to do as much as I can through command line, to cut the learning curve
[01:07] <hermande> CY_Genre, As a suggestion....  Keep away from the JAVA clients.  bittornado has been my goto command line client.
[01:07] <squinty> CY_Genre,  old time utorrent user here.  current linux choice though is deluge fwiw
[01:08] <CY_Genre> I'm interested in doing it all the hard way tbh, the more experience with terminal i can get the better
[01:08] <CY_Genre> i've use terminal before for some things in other os environment but i feel like this is a whole new ball game so to speak
[01:09] <Bashing-om> !terminal
[01:09] <CY_Genre> i believe i'll try out deluge and keep bittornado as a backup for now
[01:09] <hermande> If the other environments include Dos or Windows...  Welcome to the real command line..  :)
[01:09] <CY_Genre> windows and osx
[01:09] <CY_Genre> never used dos
[01:09] <hermande> Are you using IRC on the command line?
[01:10] <CY_Genre> hermande, i would like to but atm no i am not
[01:10] <hermande> CY_Genre, Take a peek at bb...  It's a bit old but still cool
[01:10] <CY_Genre> bb?..
[01:10] <binary01> so the fix was to purge fglrx*. thanks everyone who helped
[01:10] <hermande> CY_Genre, Then watch a movie in text using the aalib.....
[01:10] <hermande> CY_Genre, sudo apt-get install bb
[01:10] <CY_Genre> i've heard of this in conversation but again never delved into it
[01:12] <CY_Genre> installing deluge now
[01:12] <CY_Genre> so, anyone know how to disable the gesture in touchpad for the switcher
[01:12] <CY_Genre> ?...
[01:15] <bluefive> folks
[01:15] <bluefive> can i upgrade my 15.10 to 16.02 beta 2?
[01:15] <bluefive> what do i type?
[01:15] <bazhang> #ubuntu+1 bluefive
[01:15] <hermande> CY_Genre, check your mouse settings....
[01:16] <CY_Genre> hermande, there is nothing there about the switcher nor a gesture setting to disable it
[01:16] <CY_Genre> that was the first place i'd looked
[01:17] <CY_Genre> hermande, in fact i can find no setting whatsover to disable it form the touchpad
[01:17] <zz> Hi, How can I uninstall ubuntu which is installed alongside windows... It has just crashed and now is erroring upon boot
[01:17] <CY_Genre> only disabling the ability to alt/tab it
[01:17] <CY_Genre> which, i'd very much like NOT to do as this is how i'd prefer to use it in the first place
[01:17] <CY_Genre> having a gesture for it is a bit convoluted imo
[01:18] <hermande> CY_Genre, I simply use an external mouse...
[01:20] <hermande> CY_Genre, Sounds like you are using multtouch under Ubuntu....
[01:22] <CY_Genre> hermande, is there a way to disable this without killing the scrolling functon, or primary, right, and double clicks?
[01:23] <hermande> CY_Genre, If I had more experience I could easily answer.  But...  I have a very solid 20+ year hate of trackpads.
[01:23] <squinty> ++++1
[01:24]  * squinty says "mooosies all the way except for touch screens and even then sometimes"
[01:24] <CY_Genre> hermande, understandable
[01:24] <hermande> CY_Genre, I even had a finger mouse at one point.  Pretty amazing...  but in the long run delicate.
[01:25] <CY_Genre> hermande, haha I was given one a log time ago and never used it
[01:25] <CY_Genre> got my client, now i'm going to see about getting a handle on a decent vpn
[01:26] <hermande> zz, what does the error say?
[01:26] <CY_Genre> seems like ubuntu offers one, publicly
[01:26] <hermande> CY_Genre, Why do you need a vpn?
[01:26] <hermande> CY_Genre, Keep in mind that they usually leak your original IP address.
[01:27] <CY_Genre> then what would you suggest for anonymity ?
[01:27] <hermande> CY_Genre, Don't use your real name.....
[01:27] <CY_Genre> aside from buying a physical onion
[01:28] <CY_Genre> hermande, i often don't use my real name
[01:28] <hermande> CY_Genre, Get a server.  They can be as cheap as $5.00 per month.
[01:28] <hermande> CY_Genre, Then switch to another server.
[01:28] <CY_Genre> hermande, i'm "ballin' on a budget" as it were
[01:29] <CY_Genre> i live in socal, it's not cheap here
[01:29] <hermande> Uh....  Is $5.00 per month too  expensive?
[01:29] <hermande> SoCal is cheap....
[01:29] <CY_Genre> hermande, when im not even using that to buy cigarettes, sometimes, yeah
[01:29] <hermande> Try San Jose....
[01:29] <hermande> Or NYC.
[01:29] <CY_Genre> hermande, not fond of san jose
[01:30] <hermande> How about San Mateo, CA.
[01:30] <CY_Genre> hermande, and especially not fond of nyc, i just came here from the east coast
[01:30] <hermande> So Cal is cheap.
[01:30] <krytarik> !ot
[01:30] <hermande> Drop $5.00 on a server for  a month.
[01:30] <CY_Genre> hermande, perhaps
[01:30] <CY_Genre> in time
[01:31] <hermande> It's your server.  All security is yours.  Not someone elses.
[01:31] <hermande> A VPN puts your security into someone elses hands.
[01:31] <bluefive> Most VPNs are compromised.
[01:31] <zz> Hi, how can I delete ubuntu installed alongside windows?
[01:31] <bluefive> You call up the VPN provider and tell them that you want to know the identity of the user and they hand it over.
[01:31] <bluefive> They have all the information thanks to payment details.
[01:32] <zz> anyone?? need help asap
[01:33] <squinty> zz, reformat or remove the linux partitions -> livecd -> gparted
[01:33] <CY_Genre> bluefive, that's extremely disconcerting
[01:33] <znr> squinty:: that does not clean the mbr-sector tho
[01:34] <zz> squinty, I cannot use ubuntu right now to uninstall this, it is erroring and not booting
[01:34] <squinty> CY_Genre,  might want to check out the torrentfreak site for info. but this is getting off-topic for here
[01:34] <zz> I can't see any linux section in disk management
[01:34] <CY_Genre> squinty, agreed, getting off topic but will check that later, thanks
[01:34] <squinty> znr,  then use windows recovery option
[01:35] <znr> true that
[01:35] <zz> anyone? :<
[01:36] <squinty> zz,  you don't have to uninstall it.  if trying to reclaim drive space then gparted.  then use windows recovery option
[01:37] <zz> I don't understand
[01:37] <zz> gparted is for linux
[01:37] <zz> I can't use linux
[01:37] <squinty> zz,  can you boot up a livecd/usb
[01:38] <Bashing-om> zz: The ubuntu way is to fix it :)
[01:38] <zz> probably but i'd rather not
[01:38] <zz> is it really that hard
[01:38] <squinty> Bashing-om, he doesn't want to fix it
[01:38] <zz> I just want ubuntu+grub gone
[01:39] <CY_Genre> !away
[01:39] <squinty> zz,  then use windows recovery option. seek advice in a windows related channel for info
[01:40] <zz> doesn't that need an installation disk
[01:40] <hermande> zz, Do you have your windows recovery CD?
[01:40] <zz> nope
[01:40] <zz> never had one
[01:41] <hermande> zz, Then your only choice is linux.....
[01:41] <zz> Or could I just leave it there?
[01:41] <hermande> zz, Time to reboot....
[01:41] <zz> hermande, can't I just leave it there
[01:41] <zz> and just keep booting to Windows Boot Manager
[01:42] <squinty> zz,  most newer windows system has a recovery partition unless the user deleted it
[01:42] <zz> uhm
[01:42] <zz> yes it has a recovers
[01:42] <zz> *recovery
[01:43] <squinty> zz,  Should also have options for "searching for problems"   as said before ask in window related channel or google
[01:44] <zz> i thought I would just have a ubuntu partition
[01:44] <zz> then I could delete it
[01:44] <zz> but no
[01:45] <squinty> zz,  did you by any chance do a wubi install?  if yes, that is no longer recommended.  you can just remove it via Windows Progams
[01:46] <zz> squinty, wtf is wubi
[01:47] <squinty> zz,  allowed installation of linux system within Windows rather than stand alone installation
[01:47] <zz> no i dont have that
[01:47] <squinty> anyways, supper time here.   good luck.  :-)
[01:47] <zz> I do have a 11gb Healthy Partition
[01:47] <zz> I don't know what it is though
[01:48] <zz> hermande, any ideas?
[01:51] <hermande> zz, It means that the partition is not damaged and is clean.
[01:52] <zz> o
[01:52] <hermande> wubi is a windows installer for linux.
[01:52] <zz> ah
[01:52] <zz> hermande, so when I chose "install ubuntu aloneside windows" it actually installed it somewhere in the windows partition?
[01:55] <hermande> zz, When did you install ubuntu?
[01:55] <zz> probably about 4 or 5 months ago hermande
[01:55] <EOBeav> I didn't know wubi was still an option
[01:56] <zz> I didn't know what wubi was
[01:57] <hermande> zz...  Ok,  you have GRUB installed.  This is a good thing.
[01:57] <zz> yes
[01:57] <hermande> zz, You can modify grub to directly boot to windows without pausing.
[01:57] <zz> Oh, I'm not booting through grub anymore
[01:58] <zz> I changed my BIOS to Windows Boot manager
[01:58] <zz> hermande, ^
[01:59] <hermande> zz, Your are using a UEFI boot system.  What is the current problem?
[02:00] <zz> the fact that ubuntu is still on my machine
[02:00] <bluefive> Just ran Unity and found it very slow. Is it supposed to be measurably slower than MATE or was it mainly because I was running it off USB 3?
[02:01] <znpy> hello there! quick question: what is a good way to wipe/esare an ssd ?
[02:01] <Revian1> bluefive: Unity is nice and fast here. A system running from USB will usually be slower than one running from the hard drive
[02:01] <znpy> do i just dd from /dev/zero ? is that okay ?
[02:02] <Bashing-om> bluefive: Running off a USB then the speed of the USB interface is a big factor, another is the amount of ram installed .
[02:03] <hermande> zz, Is it doing anything other than taking up space?
[02:03] <zz> nope
[02:03] <zz> I would just rather it gone
[02:04] <hermande> Create recovery media.....
[02:05] <hermande> zz, Go to the Windows IRC channels and ask about changing your partitions.
[02:05] <zz> sure
[02:06] <zz> hermande, thanks for the help
[02:06] <hermande> np.
[02:08] <zz> hermande, oh also
[02:09] <zz> I have some acer recovery USB stick I got when I bought it, could this help restore or whatever?
[02:10] <hermande> zz, It could.
[02:10] <zz> hmmm okay
[02:26] <[Saint]> Oh man...
[02:26] <[Saint]> Out of the frying pan, into the fire, as it were.
[02:26] <[Saint]> gnome-keyring chokes on large bit depth RSA keys, ok, that's fine.
[02:27] <[Saint]> So, after some internal debate I switch to ed25519.
[02:27] <[Saint]> ...which gnome-keyring chokes on completely.
[02:27] <zz> how big RSA keys?
[02:27] <[Saint]> 8192
[02:28] <zz> O_O
[02:28] <zz> I use 4096 bit
[02:29] <[Saint]> This, I guess, is one of the very few occasions where the "solution" is to just disable the gnome-keyring service entirely and pretend it doesn't even exist.
[02:29] <komarek> hello
[02:29] <komarek> someone is awake here?
[02:30] <komarek> i am stuck in a terrible situation with ubuntu
[02:30] <squarecircle> komarek: tell
[02:31] <zz> story time
[02:31] <komarek> in private?
[02:31] <squarecircle> komarek: nope
[02:31] <komarek> ok
[02:31] <komarek> i cant boot from usb drive
[02:31] <komarek> i have a lenovo laptop
[02:31] <squarecircle> komarek: Model?
[02:31] <komarek> model of what?
[02:31] <zz> okay, why can't you boot?
[02:32] <squarecircle> your laptop
[02:32] <zz> Can't get into bios? errors?
[02:32] <komarek> B50
[02:32] <krismatrix1> I bought a laptop recently from best buy. It is a dell laptop. I removed windows 10 and reinstalled ubuntu 14.04. I was recently reading about superfish and how some dell computers have them or had them.
[02:32] <zz> USB drive not showing?
[02:32] <komarek> wait
[02:32] <krismatrix1> The dell website has information on removing them..but on windows.
[02:32] <komarek> something happened
[02:32] <komarek> i cant believe
[02:32] <zz> O_O
[02:32]  * zz looks at komarek's laptop
[02:32] <[Saint]> <dramatic reverb>
[02:32] <komarek> it's 4.30 am
[02:32] <krismatrix1> I don't know for sure if my dell has superfish...and i amwondering if installing ubuntu over windows cleaned it or not.
[02:32] <krismatrix1> There is no windows anymore on my system.
[02:33] <komarek> and after 3 hours without a reason
[02:33] <komarek> the debian usb boot drive is running
[02:33] <komarek> i tryed 15 times
[02:33] <willwh> that sounds odd
[02:33] <komarek> yes
[02:33] <willwh> you mean, 14x you tried, and it didn’t boot?
[02:33] <komarek> i always finished into the ubuntu choice of startup
[02:33] <willwh> and on the 15th attempt, it booted?
[02:34] <komarek> i am booting
[02:34] <willwh> komarek: you’re not making much sense
[02:34] <squarecircle> komarek: well then your problem is solved?
[02:34] <komarek> shall i use install or graphical install?
[02:34] <binary01> krismatrix1, i think deleting windows would handle the issue
[02:34] <komarek> i dont know if it's fixed. i hope so
[02:34] <komarek> it's just nonsense... i came here because i was desperate...
[02:35] <komarek> and... when i rebooted every 2 times the screen went all white crashed... but just every 2 times..
[02:36] <krismatrix1> binary01 would there be a way to check? As in, how do i know for sure.
[02:37] <komarek> just insane
[02:38] <willwh> komarek: btw
[02:38] <willwh> if you’re running stock ubuntu, on an i3, it’s probably not going to be that great
[02:38] <komarek> it's not i3
[02:39] <willwh> i5? :)
[02:39] <willwh> should be just fine then
[02:39] <komarek> intel celeron duo
[02:39] <squarecircle> *brrr*
[02:39] <komarek> :)
[02:39] <komarek> cheap machine
[02:39] <willwh> komarek: it’s not going to run too well
[02:39] <willwh> you might want to think about xubuntu
[02:39] <komarek> you think so?
[02:40] <willwh> or install ubuntu-server and i3wm
[02:40] <komarek> i am installing debian jessie
[02:40] <willwh> and start going from there…. that’s what I do
[02:40] <willwh> oh
[02:40] <willwh> then I am confused as to why you are in #ubuntu
[02:40] <willwh> :)
[02:40] <willwh> good night
[02:40] <squarecircle> willwh: why? Gnome ran quite well on my T60
[02:40] <komarek> because i was stuck in ubuntu
[02:40] <komarek> until 5 minutes ago
[02:40] <squarecircle> ^^
[02:40] <squarecircle> #debian rules
[02:40] <squarecircle> (for solving debian problems though)
[02:41] <komarek> it says that some of my hardware needs non -free firmware to operate... and i need to load it from usb
[02:41] <komarek> ubuntu didn't say anything like that
[02:42] <komarek> but it's the wifi device driver
[02:42] <jemmons> hello
[02:42] <squarecircle> komarek: do you have netisntall?
[02:43] <jemmons> no
[02:43] <komarek> no
[02:43] <squarecircle> komarek: then you can set it up and retrieve the firmware later
[02:43] <komarek> yes probably
[02:43] <komarek> or i can try now..
[02:44] <komarek> if you have any idea how to find it :)
[02:44] <komarek> rtlwifi/rtl8723befw.bin
[02:44] <squarecircle> komarek: yeah
[02:44] <squarecircle> search for debian wifi firmware
[02:45] <Klumsy> how do i install a lib if apt-get is telling me it cant find it?
[02:45] <Klumsy> https://packages.debian.org/sid/libgsl2
[02:45] <squarecircle> Klumsy: debian or ubuntu?
[02:46] <komarek> thanks
[02:46] <Klumsy> ubuntu
[02:46] <squarecircle> did it work?
[02:46] <Klumsy> i need that lib to install the new version of mandelbulber
[02:47] <squarecircle> Klumsy: apt-cache search libgsl12 brings no results?
[02:48] <Klumsy> nothing
[02:49] <squarecircle> Klumsy: and libgsl10 is too old?
[02:49] <squarecircle> komarek: does it works?
[02:49] <squarecircle> *work?
[02:49] <komarek> i am still looking for the driver
[02:49] <squarecircle> oh ok
[02:50] <squarecircle> komarek: I'm off, if you don't get help here anymore, try #debian
[02:51] <komarek> thanks so much
[02:51] <squarecircle> Klumsy: I'm off, if libgsl10 works, use this version, if not, try to look for backports
[02:52] <eelstrebor> hmm, i had to re-install 14.04 on one box and now i have 4.2.0-34-generic installed while my other boxes were just upgraded to 3.19.0-56-generic - i just did an apt-get update on the other boxes and none of them are prompting me to upgrade to 4.2.0-34-generic. what's going on?
[02:52] <Klumsy> thanks
[02:53] <Bashing-om> !hwe | eelstrebor
[03:00] <max3> if i have a bash script that i pass in an argument to how do i perform this substitution correctly: echo "$1_rsrc"
[03:00] <jaequery> which apt package installs, scp ?  on my docker ubuntu i dont hav SCP, please help
[03:00] <max3> i want it to be the string "max_rsrc"
[03:00] <max3> for example
[03:08] <Klumsy> ../src/morph.hpp:28:28: fatal error: gsl/gsl_interp.h: No such file or directory
[03:08] <Klumsy> compilation terminated.
[03:08] <Klumsy> thats what they need libgsl for... for the morphing effects
[03:08] <Klumsy> ubuntu 15.10 has something, but it's not the same one
[03:11] <DesiITChef> ello, does anyone know if ubuntu touch can be ported to nexus 5x. been googling for a while now
[03:11] <xangua> ! Touch | DesiITChef
[03:30] <Klumsy> so what do i do if the version that 15.10 uses is 1.16 and this app needs 2.0?
[03:31] <Klumsy> i have to download it and compile it for myself?
[03:31] <Klumsy> nobody needs gsl 2 in 15.10?
[03:34] <EOBeav> Looks like you get to be the expert, Klumsy
[03:43] <`packy> what's the take on firefox locking up the system?
[03:50] <EOBeav> Hadn't heard of that one.
 register iamhere
[03:56] <Vlek> Someone told me I should run "/rm -r *" to make my ubuntu computer go faster, but shouldn't I sudo it first?
[03:57] <Revian1> Vlek: Don
[03:57] <Vlek> Don't sudo?
[03:57] <Revian1> don't do that, it erases everything
[03:57] <Bashing-om> !danger
[03:57] <Revian1> Bashing-om: Thank you
[03:58] <`packy> ummm do not use that command unless you understand the implications.....
[03:58] <Revian1> that goes for any command
[04:00] <Revian1> I wonder if Canonical should alias that commend to a text output explaining how dangerous it is
[04:10] <jackdotbin>  /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER jackdotbin pzsgofmquvxy
[04:10] <`packy> hehehe
[04:12] <Revian1> jackdotbin: Now you get to change your password, don't forget to remove the space at the beginning of that line
[04:12] <jackdotbin> \o/ yay for noob mistakes
[04:14] <Revian1> jackdotbin: You can always join your own channel and do nickserv/chanserv stuff there and it won't show. /join #jackdotbin
[04:14] <jackdotbin> thanks
[04:14] <JBH> Hello.  I recently created an Ubuntu bootable image on an 128GB Flash following the instructions at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows.  To my dismay, when I view the contents of the drive from Ubuntu, the vast majority of the free space on the drive is allocated to /cdrom and is therefore not writeable.  What's the best way for me to recover this space and...
[04:14] <JBH> ...turn it into something that can be read and written while running Ubuntu or while running a MS Windows OS?  I'd like to use it as a storage medium for recovering data from a crashed (readable but not bootable) MS Windows disk..
[04:16] <Revian1> JBH: Just FYI, You wouldn't be able to write to it while the system is being used from the USB stick anyway.
[04:19] <Loshki> JBH: when you made your usb stick, did you select the "Step 4: set size for persistent storage" and allocate some?
[04:21] <JBH> Revian1:  This is my first foray into Ubuntu or even Linux in general, though  I was considered a Unix guru many, many years ago.  I seem to be able to write to my home directory, which lives on  the flash drive.  Why can I not change permissions or whatever to do the same with a directory on /cdrom?
[04:21] <JBH> Loshki:  I don't recall.  I believe I took the defaults in all cases.
[04:22] <Revian1> Loshki makes a good point. If you set persistence, then some of the space is being occupied by a virtual drive that saves settings and files.
[04:22] <JBH> I don't mind redoing the drive from scratch if that's the best way to go.
[04:25] <Revian1> I've never used pendrivelinux, I always used unetbootin
[04:29] <JBH> Revian1:  Looks like I used Universal-USB-Installer-<IP_ADDRESS>.exe
[04:30] <Revian1> JBH: Yeah, I've never used that. It looks nice, though.
[04:31] <Revian1> JBH: If the /cdrom is on the USB stick and you're running Ubuntu from that, you won't be able to write to it at all (the stick won't be mountable)
[04:32] <Loshki> JBH: whatever. Re-burn the stick with as much 'persistence space' as you wish, and try again.
[04:34] <JBH> What it tells me is that the stick has two partitions, and the largest is mounted on /cdrom.  I can browse it and view files as the normal ubuntu user, but even as root I can't seem to change permissions because the system regards it as read only media.
[04:35] <JBH> Loshki: Sounds reasonable.  I'm not sure the installer I used offered me that option, but if not, I'll go find the unetbootin one if that's what I need.
[04:37] <JBH> "As root" meaning using "sudo nautilus".
[04:37] <Revian1> JBH: I would try that installer again, since Ubuntu recommends it. If that fails, you can find unetbootin at https://unetbootin.github.io/
[04:38] <JBH> Okay.  I'll play around with it.  *grins* Best way to learn, no?  Make lots of fun mistakes trying to recover your 84 year old mom's precious data.  Thanks all.  G'night.
[04:38] <rahuldev> hi
[04:39] <rahuldev> how can I see previous command on terminal.
[04:39] <ssarah> press up or type history, rahuldev
[04:40] <rahuldev> I mean I was downloading a link by wget, and my electrcity is gone, and computer off... then I can't see what was previous command by using up
[04:40] <rahuldev> ssarah, I tried up, but it doesn't showed previous one..
[04:40] <rahuldev> :(
[04:40] <ssarah> if the terminal wasnt closed properly, it wont log it in history
[04:40] <ssarah> not sure if there's another log, but try syslog ?
[04:41] <ssarah> wget has a log?
[04:41] <rahuldev> wget I don't have much idea.
[04:41] <cfhowlett> wget should drop a log in the case of bad shutdown
[04:41] <cfhowlett> in /home
[04:42] <rahuldev> cfhowlett, where i can look...
[04:42] <cfhowlett> rahuldev, look in the directory you were saving to.
[04:42] <cfhowlett> it will be a .wget something
[04:43] <rahuldev> cfhowlett not found.
[04:43] <cfhowlett> hidden files displayed??
[04:44] <rahuldev> yes hidden file displayed
[04:44] <c5e3> hi! i just wanted to install the proprietary intel-microcode firmware, but after reboot i get 'error getting authority error initializing authority g-io-error-quark 1'
[04:44] <rahuldev> how to look syslog?
[04:44] <cfhowlett> always works for me when my power drops while wget in progress.
[04:44] <cfhowlett> tail syslog
[04:45] <rahuldev> cfhowlett "tail syslog" -> no such file or directory.
[04:45] <c5e3> i can only access the gui via recovery mode (root only) or via upstart, but i have some other problems then
[04:45] <cfhowlett> seems I'm wrong on that as well.  will get coffee and return later.  sorry for bad info
[04:49] <EOBeav> Any reason why this wouldn't work in ubuntu? http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/220097/WD-My-Book-With-External-Backup/
[04:52] <c5e3> problem solved.... file system check and it was gone
[04:52] <owen> ubuntu 15.10. i see a plus sign next to mysql and mongodb when i run 'sudo service --status-all'.  'sudo update-rc.d mysql disable' and 'sudo update-rc.d mongodb disable' didn't change that. how do i disable these dbs from running on boot?
[04:55] <cfhowlett> EOBeav, why not rock over to office max with your laptop and ask to see a demo model?  just to be sure.
[04:55] <EOBeav> cfhowlett: Might just do that. Thx for the idea
[04:56] <TheCurryMonster> Hey Guys. I've installed and configured vsftpd on my Ubuntu Server which is hosted with AWS. I'm unable to connect to the box however - the connection keeps being reset. Any ideas?
[04:56] <cfhowlett> EOBeav, happy2help!
[05:04] <owen> 'curl http' show me 301 html page from nginx. does it mean nginx is running? ps aux|grep nginx shows nothing. any clues?

[05:14] <`packy> 8 gigs of ram are suggested for gaming.....
[05:26] <iputra> hello, why my laptop sometimes stack in the logo ubuntu when i shutdown it
[05:26] <iputra> ??
[05:27] <iputra> so i must force shutdown to turn off the machine
[05:27] <BuzzardBuzz> did this happen recently
[05:28] <BuzzardBuzz> and used to work fine
[05:28] <BuzzardBuzz> or when did this problem start happening?
[05:29] <BuzzardBuzz> iputra: ?
[05:29] <cfhowlett> 73g00g
[05:30] <lotuspsychje> iputra: can you press F1 at shutdown process to see freeze error?
[05:32] <geekin> hello

[06:21] <hicoleri> Nothing trivial, but why do lenny faces look like this:http://postimg.org/image/l8dmibthr/ on my computer?
[06:22] <lotuspsychje> hicoleri: not here please
[06:22] <hicoleri> lotuspsychje:Okay, but is that a font problem? (I'm serious)
[06:23] <lotuspsychje> hicoleri: what has that to do with ubuntu?
[06:23] <hicoleri> lotuspsychje:well... I thought that was a font rendering problem
[06:23] <Flannel> lotuspsychje: because ubuntu is the thing rendering the fonts, but it seems to be doing it strangely.
[06:23] <Flannel> lotuspsychje: Totally on topic.
[06:25] <Flannel> hicoleri: Which program(s)?
[06:25] <hicoleri> web browsers (firefox)
[06:26] <haze__> hello
[06:27] <haze__> hello
[06:27] <hicoleri> Flannel:
[06:27] <iputra> hello, why my laptop sometimes stack in the logo ubuntu when i shutdown it ??
[06:27] <gr33nbits> heias
[06:28] <Flannel> hicoleri: I can't find any reference on the blagonets.  I'd file a bug(s), see where it leads.
[06:28] <hicoleri> Flannel:what are blagonets?
[06:28] <hicoleri> okay
[06:28] <Flannel> hicoleri: internet
[06:28] <hicoleri> oh
[06:29] <haze__> Where are you from?
[06:29] <lotuspsychje> hicoleri: wich ubuntu version are you on?
[06:29] <hicoleri> 14.04
[06:29] <lotuspsychje> hicoleri: up to date to latest?
[06:30] <haze__> The latest version is not stable！
[06:30] <lotuspsychje> iputra: press F1 during shutdown process to see errors
[06:30] <hicoleri> lotuspsycheje:I guess.
[06:30] <hicoleri> lotuspsycheje:okay
[06:31] <lotuspsychje> hicoleri: you have this issue in another browser? another user?
[06:31] <Cyph3r> hello
[06:31] <Flannel> hicoleri: Does it happen just in firefox? or if you copy it to other things, does it fix it?  Also, try a different font.  Apparently some fonts support combining "repertoires" better than others (no idea where that came from, but I'm looking at the FAQ right now) http://unicode.org/faq/char_combmark.html#12b
[06:32] <iputra> lotuspsychje: ok if it happen i will capture it

[07:07] <journeyZC> where are you come from?
[07:07] <blueFive> How come the white noise on my headphone line goes away somewhat after I start listening to sound?

[07:08] <journeyZC> ok
[07:09] <cfhowlett> blueFive, manjaro is not supported here.  please use the majaro support options
[07:09] <journeyZC> thanks tips
[07:09] <blueFive> cfhowlett, I'm inquiring about Ubuntu!
[07:10] <Revian1> jak2000: Unfortunately, no
[07:11] <blueFive> cfhowlett, No need competing with Manjaro. In the Linux community we're all brothers regardless of distro.
[07:12] <cfhowlett> blueFive, be that as it may, your best option for manjaro support, which you were explicitly advocating for in the other channel, is not in this channel.
[07:12] <blueFive> Yes, but I am also a Ubuntu user
[07:12] <blueFive> so I was asking a Ubuntu question in here.
[07:13] <Revian1> blueFive: is the proble you aare experiencing happening on your ubuntu system?
[07:13] <blueFive> Yes.
[07:13] <blueFive> I'm on Ubuntu MATE 15.10.
[07:14] <Kevin`> nobody here with any ideas? on ubuntu 15.10 it is impossible to enter a password for encryption if it's not done during initramfs
[07:14] <Kevin`> also seems impossible to continue booting without going into rescue mode
[07:17] <Rumi> Hi! I install xrdp. How to fix error: another Xserver is already active on display 10?
[07:19] <nnmm> Quick question. When i setup crontab to do a daily reboot on server, it work but then it goes on an infinite loop of reboots. Why?

[09:11] <rigo88> hi. my wlan is extreme slow. what i figured out is that there is no driver/firmware for the rl3090 installed. is there anything i can do?
[09:13] <rigo88> i'm on 15.04 x64, lenovo s205, with 3.19 (?) kernel and with the lastest (4.5) the same as well.
[09:14] <MonkeyDust> rigo88  15.04 is dead
[09:15] <rigo88> soz. typo. it's 14.04

[09:23] <wilson> hi
[09:24] <Guest17082> anybody here?
[09:24] <pi_> hallo
[09:24] <MonkeyDust> Guest17082  type /names
[09:24] <lotuspsychje> Guest17082: yes
[09:24] <Guest17082> cool
[09:24] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust: morning
[09:24] <MonkeyDust> lotuspsychje  morning
[09:24] <pi_> hallo an alle
[09:24] <MonkeyDust> !de
[09:25] <Guest17082> haha
[09:25] <Guest17082> someone quit
[09:25] <lotuspsychje> Guest17082: can we help you with something?
[09:26] <Guest17082> no i just nothing to do
[09:26] <Guest17082> find sth happy
[09:26] <vbotka> rigo88, you might want to start with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WirelessTroubleshootingProcedure
[09:26] <MonkeyDust> Guest17082  better go to #ubuntu-offtopic, then
[09:27] <vbotka> rigo88, and you might want to find the chipset of your card with "lspci -nn" first
[09:27] <rigo88> vbotka: thanks. that i already have. 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Ralink corp. RT3090 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe [1814:3090]
[09:28] <rigo88> i believe it'd be faster to grab a wifi card from ebay :D
[09:28] <lotuspsychje> rigo88: wich ubuntu version?
[09:28] <rigo88> lotuspsychje: 14.04
[09:29] <lotuspsychje> rigo88: up to date to 14.04.4?
[09:29] <rigo88> no idea, i ran update, upgrade and dist-upgrade and i just downloaded the iso ystrd or so
[09:29] <rigo88> i can check the dl link
[09:29] <lotuspsychje> rigo88: lsb_release -a
[09:30] <rigo88> ah yeah. thats it. so yes it's the latest
[09:30] <lotuspsychje> ok
[09:30] <lotuspsychje> rigo88: so whats your issue with your wifi?
[09:31] <rigo88> it's slow. (it is something with the fw/driver that's sure)
[09:31] <lotuspsychje> rigo88: i recall some issues with ralink cards, needed firmware from linux-firmware
[09:32] <rigo88> it's installed also the nonfree
[09:33] <rigo88> this is it
[09:33] <rigo88> https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Special:Ask?title=Special%3AAsk&q=[[Vendor+ID::1814]]+[[Device+ID::3090]]&po=%3FInterface%0D%0A%3FFCC+ID%0D%0A%3FManuf%0D%0A%3FManuf+product+model%0D%0A%3FVendor+ID%0D%0A%3FDevice+ID%0D%0A%3FSubvendor+ID%0D%0A%3FSubdevice+ID%0D%0A%3FChip1+model%0D%0A%3FChip2+model%0D%0A%3FChip3+model%0D%0A%3FSupported+802dot11+protocols=PHY+modes%0D%0A%3FMIMO+config%0D%0A%3FOUI%0D%0A%3FEstimated+year+of+release=Est.+year&eq=y
[09:33] <rigo88> ugh sry for the long link.
[09:33] <rigo88> so the chip is supported by the kernel (?)
[09:34] <lotuspsychje> !ralink | rigo88
[09:34] <lotuspsychje> rigo88: it should, but as i say i recall some issues on ralink cards before
[09:36] <trijntje> I want to automatically run a backup script for the user when they shut down or reboot the pc. The catch is, the script has to run as the user, not root. Is this possible?
[09:36] <rigo88> i'm just too lazy and occupied to search for something what possibly doesn't exist. :) still thanks. i'm gonna buy another supported pcie card for 8 bucks thanks folks. (i can live with 80kbyte/sec for a couple of days, or use a cable) i just thought it's easier to solve this one.
[09:38] <vbotka> rigo88, I see it supported in in kernel 4.2 "modinfo rt2800pci | grep 3090"
[09:38] <rigo88> vbotka:  alias:          pci:v00001814d00003090sv*sd*bc*sc*i*
[09:38] <MonkeyDust> trijntje  yes, you can use rsync or so to backup
[09:39] <TheHackOps> Does anyone know what the ubuntu video editing software that was being developed was called. It was meant to rival Premier pro
[09:39] <rigo88> i have the latest 4.5.0 kernel also installed to try it out
[09:39] <TheHackOps> I dunno if it ever made it though
[09:39] <TheHackOps> Tons of money was poured into it
[09:39] <trijntje> MonkeyDust: I already have a working backup script, I'm just looking for a way to trigger it when user A shuts down the pc
[09:39] <MonkeyDust> TheHackOps  light-something
[09:40] <TheHackOps> MonkeyDust, Remember they had a purpleish website
[09:41] <MonkeyDust> TheHackOps  that's a bit vague... 'i remember there being text on it'
[09:41] <TheHackOps> MonkeyDust, Also true
[09:41] <TheHackOps> It was crowd funded
[09:41] <cfhowlett> TheHackOps, vague input = vague answers.
[09:42] <rigo88> brb have to reboot and check the bios
[09:42] <TheHackOps> cfhowlett, Sorry I thought people might know, what I remember of it was vuage
[09:43] <TheHackOps> I think it was a non-linear editor
[09:43] <cfhowlett> TheHackOps, there are several video editing options. apt-cache show ubuntustudio-video for more.
[09:44] <MonkeyDust> trijntje  this is an old post, it says to put the script in /etc/init.d/ ... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185261
[09:44] <TheHackOps> YES
[09:44] <TheHackOps> I found it
[09:44] <TheHackOps> Novacut
[09:44] <TheHackOps> Phew
[09:44] <MonkeyDust> TheHackOps  glad i could help
[09:44] <cfhowlett> TheHackOps, that was not and never will be Ubuntu developed but yeah, it's still in play
[09:45] <TheHackOps> cfhowlett, Yea no I just remember it being tied strongly to ubuntu
[09:45] <TheHackOps> by the developers
[09:45] <cfhowlett> TheHackOps, fair enough
[09:45] <TheHackOps> Looks very dead to me
[09:45] <cfhowlett> indeed
[09:45] <stacy-> nobody talking in #joomla :( ..any experts in joomla or ubuntu here?
[09:46] <lotuspsychje> stacy-: maybe #httpd ?
[09:46] <trijntje> MonkeyDust: that works, but it runs the script as root instead of the current user. And my script has to run as user
[09:46] <stacy-> ok i'll try that
[09:46] <TheHackOps> I was son keen for novacut
[09:46] <cfhowlett> TheHackOps, per the wiki, no activity since 2013 sooooooo, I'm guessing abandonware
[09:47] <TheHackOps> cfhowlett, blog last post was 2014
[09:47] <TheHackOps> But yea
[09:47] <cfhowlett> strangely enough, TheHackOps, the launchpad code is up to date
[09:47] <TheHackOps> cfhowlett, Weirdly yes
[09:48] <TheHackOps> I just saw that
[09:48] <TheHackOps> Maybe they're not much talkers
[09:48]  * TheHackOps installs it
[09:48] <cfhowlett> we can hope
[09:48] <TheHackOps> Well the package is alive so i shal install it and see what happens
[09:48] <MonkeyDust> trijntje  wild idea: start the script with su [username]   <-- su = switch user
[09:48] <stacy->  in #httpd everyone can not send to channel?
[09:50] <lotuspsychje> !register | stacy-
[09:52] <cfhowlett> TheHackOps, you might want to drop into #ubuntustudio to discuss ubuntu video things.
[09:53] <TheHackOps> cfhowlett, Yea. Is python 2.7 still the default on ubuntu 15.10
[09:53] <TheHackOps> or is it 3 yet
[09:54] <cfhowlett> TheHackOps, I believe 2.7 is still default in 15.10.  I only do LTS so I'm still on 14.04.  I read that 16.04 will make the jump to 3
[09:55] <trijntje> MonkeyDust: I think that only works for one user tough, since there is no way to figure out which user triggered the shutdown. I guess I'll have to read up on lightdm, since that is the last place that still knows the user that initiated the shutdown
[09:55] <MonkeyDust> trijntje  then try  su $(whoami) ... try $(whoami) for yourself, first
[10:01] <trijntje> MonkeyDust: I'll give it a try, brb
[10:07] <vincent42> I compiled ntfs-3g manually (to have fstrim capabilities), but now USB disk I plug are mounted with the R/O ntfs kernel driver
[10:08] <vincent42> how can this be fixed ?
[10:11] <vincent42> what package take care of mounting external disks in ubuntu 14.04 ?
[10:13] <trijntje> MonkeyDust: whoami returns 'root' when run from a script in /etc/init.d
[10:14] <rigo88> back
[10:14] <rigo88> no luck. no options in bios
[10:15] <MonkeyDust> trijntje  what do 'w' and 'who' say? with $(..), you can filter the output
[10:17] <trijntje> MonkeyDust: this looks like an answer, the lightdm logout script can access $USER and $HOME for the user, even though the script runs as root: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1969822.html
[10:20] <MonkeyDust> trijntje  great
[10:20] <Amritpal> hello everyone
[10:22] <lotuspsychje> Amritpal: welcome
[10:23] <Amritpal> Is there any software in Linux which preserve 10% resources for the admin during deadlocks?
[10:24] <Amritpal> lotuspsychje, when I run too many application on my system it get hangs
[10:25] <Amritpal> lotuspsychje, and then my system is suffering from deadlock
[10:25] <trijntje> Amritpal: how much ram do you have? If you use more RAM then you have your system will start swapping and become really slow
[10:25] <trijntje> its not frozen or deadlocked or whatever, just slooooow
[10:25] <Amritpal> i have 4gb ram and 4gb swap
[10:27] <trijntje> Amritpal: you can install zram-config, that will give you some extra usable ram at the cost of CPU time. But otherwise, just don't use all your RAM if you can help it
[10:28] <Amritpal> trijntje, Is there any software in Linux which preserve 10% resources for the admin during deadlocks?
[10:29] <trijntje> Amritpal: no, how would that work? What if a program needs more RAM, and you still have 10% left for the admin? Should the program crash?
[10:29] <trijntje> and again, its not a deadlock, its just really really slow due to swapping to disk
[10:30] <lotuspsychje> Amritpal: preload is also nice to get things smoother
[10:30] <lotuspsychje> !info preload | Amritpal
[10:30] <trijntje> Amritpal: you could just remove your swap. Then you can use 100% of your RAM, and when a program wants more it will crash instead of slowing everything down
[10:31] <syeekick> preload is awesome
[10:31] <lotuspsychje> syeekick: +1
[10:32] <Amritpal> trijntje, I think this is not a perfect answer for my question
[10:33] <Amritpal> trijntje, any another idea that you have?
[10:33] <lotuspsychje> Amritpal: we trying to widen your options here
[10:33] <trijntje> Amritpal: install zram-config, that will help, and then figure out which program is using all your RAM. 4gb should be plenty for 'normal' usage
[10:34] <MonkeyDust> Amritpal  you can set vm.swappiness=xx in /etc/sysctl.conf
[10:37] <Amritpal> trijntje, lotuspsychje ubottu thanku for your answer. Is there any disadvantage of preload?
[10:37] <lotuspsychje> Amritpal: no, just another package installed that takes a lil space :p
[10:41] <squeakytoy> Hey all. I have a newbie question. When someone does "apt-get install", is there a way to see what the latest version of a package is, online?
[10:41] <squeakytoy> is there a website that lists all versions of pacakges?
[10:41] <Amritpal> lotuspsychje, haha thanks :)
[10:41] <lotuspsychje> !latest | squeakytoy
[10:42] <trijntje> squeakytoy: packages.ubuntu.com, or you can do dpkg -l packagename in the terminal
[10:42] <lotuspsychje> squeakytoy: you can apt-cache search keyword to find packages, meant for your ubuntu version
[10:42] <llutz> squeakytoy: why online?  apt-cache policy <package>
[10:43] <squeakytoy> im new to ubuntu
[10:43] <lotuspsychje> !manual | squeakytoy start here and welcome to the community
[10:43] <stacy-> is there a ubuntu software center password needed to download applications?
[10:43] <cfhowlett> yes, you need your password to install on ubunt
[10:44] <squeakytoy> does apt offer latest package version, by some command argument?
[10:44] <MonkeyDust> stacy-  your login password
[10:44] <MonkeyDust> squeakytoy  apt shows what's in the repos
[10:45] <stacy-> monkeydust it didnt have the prompt before.. after i enter the password its just stalls at the progress
[10:45] <stacy-> i have two pending and nothing seems to be happening
[10:46] <stacy-> cfhowlett.. i entered the password but the download didnt start
[10:46] <cfhowlett> stacy-, what version of ubuntu?
[10:46] <trijntje> stacy-: it could be waiting, are you sure there isn't an update running, or an apt-get or dpkg command in a terminal?
[10:46] <squeakytoy> thanks all
[10:46] <MonkeyDust> stacy-  cat /etc/issue
[10:46] <stacy-> 15.10 desktop
[10:46] <cfhowlett> also, you might experience hinky  behavior as you are using the vpn
[10:46] <trijntje> only 1 program can modify packages at the same time
[10:48] <MonkeyDust> stacy-  keep it in the channel
[10:48] <stacy-> ok
[10:48] <stacy-> monkeydust.. something might be wrong..
[10:49] <stacy-> cat /etc/issue
[10:49] <stacy-> Ubuntu 15.10 \n \l
[10:51] <stacy-> cfhowlett.. yes it happened before thats why am trying to use another vpn..

[11:05] <MonkeyDust> adamkavala  repeat your question every 15 minutes or so, until someone can help
[11:06] <stacy-> is there another
[11:06] <Amritpal> trijntje, ubottu "yes it may crash... How would the requirement of program be fulfilled if we have limited RAM? Is it making sense? We can suppose we do have 3.5 GB RAM available only."
[11:06] <stacy-> way to get openvpn?
[11:06] <cfhowlett> stacy-, sud apt install openvpn
[11:06] <cfhowlett> *sudo*
[11:08] <stacy-> cfhowlett is this is format? -->> sudo apt-get install openvpn
[11:08] <cfhowlett> stacy-, yep.  or just use the software center.  choose one or the other
[11:09] <stacy-> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[11:09] <stacy-> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[11:09] <iamgod> sudo -i
[11:09] <cfhowlett> stacy-, remember I said "one or the other"?  you have another process running which as done an aptlock
[11:09] <cfhowlett> !aptlock | stacy-
[11:11] <MonkeyDust> stacy-  sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/apt/lists/lock
[11:11] <stacy-> cfhowlett..if i close out of the software center will that solve the problem or i have to di the sudo fuser ?
[11:12] <cfhowlett> stacy-, if you choose to use the terminal, close the software center.  or use the software center but close the terminal
[11:14] <stacy-> phpmyadmin package confuration is locking the it and there is a access denied from mysql
[11:18] <stacy-> is there a gui version for openvpn ?
[11:19] <cfhowlett> stacy-, "Currently this is only deamon and you can only used it through terminal with command "openvpn".
[11:19] <cfhowlett> If you want GUI setup for OpenVPN, you may install this plugin for network manager after install the daemon : 1. network management framework (OpenVPN plugin core) (network-manager-openvpn) 2. network management framework (OpenVPN plugin GNOME GUI) (network-manager-openvpn-gnome).
[11:19] <cfhowlett> Now you should be able to setup the OpenVPN through network manager."
[11:21] <stacy-> cfhowlett...i have to install 3 things?
[11:21] <cfhowlett> stacy-, only if you insist on a gui
[11:22] <wadadli> Hello
[11:22] <stacy-> is there an easier vpn to work with that has a built-in gui?
[11:23] <cfhowlett> stacy-, openvpn is NOT a vpn.  it is the vpn connection manager.  NOT  a connecction
[11:23] <MonkeyDust> openvpn is a protocol
[11:23] <cfhowlett> and ubuntu doesn't supply vpn's
[11:24] <adamkavala> anyone who can help me with setting of iptables? putty ready,  many thanks in advance
[11:24] <wadadli> adamkavala: how much you pay?
[11:24] <stacy-> is there a software similar to the ones on android phones i just click and it will connect to the vpns automatically?
[11:24] <wadadli> stacy-: why not
[11:25] <cfhowlett> stacy-, once you have set your vpn up, you can do that with the standard ubuntu connection manager
[11:25] <adamkavala> wadadli how much u expect?
[11:25] <stacy-> wadadi..which one
[11:25] <wadadli> adamkavala: $50
[11:25] <adamkavala> wadadli i have no money, is just for private use, i am not company
[11:25] <adamkavala> wadadli if u play csgo i can send u some skins
[11:26] <wadadli> Can you register a pornhub acc on your CC for me and we share
[11:26] <cfhowlett> wadadli, enough
[11:26] <wadadli> k
[11:27] <stacy-> cfhowlett.. network management framework and network-manager-openvpn   ...these two right?
[11:28] <cfhowlett> stacy-, before you do all that, go to you connection manager and see if (as I suspect) you can already add a VPN connection
[11:28] <adamkavala>  #ubuntuserver
[11:29] <stacy-> cfhowlett.. connection manager within openvpn correct?
[11:30] <cfhowlett> stacy-, yep
[11:30] <adamkavala> join #ubuntuserver
[11:30] <stacy-> cfhowlett... whats the command to start up connection manager inside openvpn?
[11:30] <cfhowlett> adamkavala, that would be /add #channel
[11:30] <cfhowlett> adamkavala, sorry.  /join #channel
[11:31] <cfhowlett> stacy-, do you see VPN as an option?
[11:33] <stacy-> cfhowlett.. there is a long list of commands... i am not sure what you mean by vpn as an option..
[11:33] <cfhowlett> stacy-, make a new connection.  type?  VPN
[11:35] <stacy-> cfhowlett... when i type openvpn at the command prompt a list of commands scrolls and then i am backk at the command prompt again
[11:35] <cfhowlett> stacy-, I said nothing about using openvpn.  go to your settings > network.  make a new network connection.  type?  vpn
[11:37] <MonkeyDust> stacy-  not every vpn supports openvpn
[11:38] <stacy-> cfhowlett.. point to poiont tunneliing protocol or import saved vpn? for the choose a vpn connection type
[11:38] <cfhowlett> stacy-, depends on your vpn.  see the vpn setup guide for details.
[11:39] <stacy-> monkeydust.. you mean vpn within ubuntu?
[11:39] <Guest68467> Heey peeps, i'm trying to get my .desktop file to run but i can't figure out what is whrong. I cannot execute it. Would someone be so pleased to take a look at it with me @teamviewer that i have installed please?
[11:39] <Melbarius> Heey peeps, i'm trying to get my .desktop file to run but i can't figure out what is whrong. I cannot execute it. Would someone be so pleased to take a look at it with me @teamviewer that i have installed please?
[11:39] <stacy-> cfhowlett..is there a vpn package that has all the proxies inside without having me configuer it and is a gui?
[11:40] <cfhowlett> stacy-, I'm not aware of same
[11:40] <stacy-> omg .. this is not easy
[11:40] <ikonia> stacy-: again https://help.ubuntu.com
[11:40] <ikonia> stacy-: this will teach you the BASICS of using ubuntu
[11:40] <ikonia> please READ this page

[11:41] <Melbarius> stacy- it is easy, as long as you keep reading :P
[11:41] <ikonia> you've been given this link mutliple times yet it's clear you are not reading it and continuing to stuble blindly through whatever it is you are trying to do - please - read the link
[11:41] <cfhowlett> stacy-, your vpn provider should provide very clear directions on how to set up.  suggest you read more
[11:42] <stacy-> is there a ported android vpn for ubuntu?
[11:42] <ikonia> there is no such thing
[11:42] <cfhowlett> stacy-, android doesn't run on ubuntu
[11:42] <Melbarius> Can you guys see this message, not sure if i'm connected ?
[11:43] <ikonia> Melbarius: we can see you
[11:43] <Melbarius> thank you
[11:43] <Nimms_> Melbarius, yes, we do. Check PM.
[11:43] <stacy-> cfhowlett..what if its a microsoft vpn application can it be used on ubuntu using wine or something?
[11:43] <ikonia> stacy-: enough
[11:44] <ikonia> stacy-: there are native vpn clients for ubuntu - use them
[11:44] <cfhowlett> stacy-, read more.  the VPN instructions are abundant and even I managed to figure them out.
[11:44] <stacy-> ikonia...please suggest some
[11:44] <ikonia> stacy-: the ones that are documented in the link I sent you
[11:44] <ikonia> stacy-: the document I've been asking you - now I'm telling you to read
[11:45] <adamkavala> inkonia dont u wanna help me with IPTABLES setting? please
[11:45] <ikonia> adamkavala: not really
[11:45] <ikonia> adamkavala: #netfilter maybe a good place
[11:46] <stacy-> ikonia.. which vpns have you used before?
[11:46] <ikonia> stacy-: what does that matter ?
[11:47] <stacy-> just wanna follow what you have done and see if i can get the same results
[11:47] <ikonia> if you read the document I've given you - it will walk you through setting up a vpn
[11:49] <stacy-> ikona..how about suggesting a gui vpn interface ..i think setting up this vpn from command line is going to be very difficult for me
[11:49] <ikonia> stacy-: why do you need a VPN ?
[11:49] <cfhowlett> stacy-, you already have the gui setup, remember??
[11:49] <ikonia> and again if you READ the info I've given you, you'll see there are gui options
[11:49] <ikonia> stacy-: have you READ the links I've given you
[11:49] <MonkeyDust> stacy-  then now is the time to start learning
[11:49] <stacy-> ikonia...sometimes i can see google most of the time i cant
[11:49] <ikonia> stacy-: have you READ the links I've given you
[11:50] <stacy-> cfhowlett... but its not openvpn...
[11:50] <ikonia> stacy-: have you READ the links I've given you
[11:51] <cfhowlett> stacy-, stop.  see your website provider page.  print the instructions.  then READ the link you have been sent.
[11:53] <stacy-> thanks anyway ..i'll try again
[11:54] <ikonia> stacy-: have you READ the links I've given you
[11:54] <stacy-> ikonia .. parts of it..but i couldnt find the vpn section and the vpn providers
[11:54] <ikonia> stacy-: which part did you look in
[11:55] <cfhowlett> stacy-, who is your vpn provider
[11:55] <stacy-> cfhowlett.. i dont have a vpn provider
[11:55] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[11:55] <ikonia> then what vpn are you trying to connect to ?
[11:55] <stacy-> if i can find a vpn provider maybe that will be faster
[11:55] <ikonia> ??
[11:55] <cfhowlett> stacy-, yes
[11:56] <ikonia> stacy-: what / who's VPN are you trying to connect to ?
[11:56] <stacy-> ikonia..ii am trying to get a software that can automatically connect to vpns
[11:56] <ikonia> stacy-: what VPN
[11:56] <stacy-> similar to the ones on android phones
[11:57] <cfhowlett> stacy-, as has been explained repeatedly, ubuntu already has vpn support.
[11:57] <adamkavala> i think he or she need samba >
[11:57] <ikonia> adamkavala: why ?
[11:57] <adamkavala> not vpn
[11:57] <adamkavala> >D
[11:57] <stacy-> flashvpn or Fast secure VPN  ...these two
[11:57] <EriC^^> maybe tango
[11:57] <ikonia> stacy-: there is vpn software already in ubuntu
[11:58] <ikonia> stacy-: what VPN are you trying to connect to
[11:58] <adamkavala> tango i good if u play dota
[11:58] <adamkavala> is
[11:58] <stacy-> ikonia ... is the software in ubuntu automatic and can get a list of proxy servers?
[11:58] <ikonia> proxy servers ?
[11:58] <ikonia> what are you talking about
[11:58] <ikonia> a VPN is not a proxy server
[11:59] <ikonia> a vpn is a way to connect to other secure networks
[11:59] <stacy-> ikonia... i mean vpn that can get a list of vpns which i can connect to
[11:59] <ikonia> stacy-: there is no such thing as vpns you can connect to
[11:59] <ikonia> stacy-: what is it you are REALLY trying to do
[11:59] <ikonia> just be honest - are you trying to spoof your IP or something ?
[11:59] <ikonia> what is the end goal ?
[11:59] <stacy-> ikonia.. flashvpn  this application does that
[11:59] <ikonia> stacy-: what is your goal
[12:00] <adamkavala> for me is clear i need to start counter strike global offensive server, and IPTABLES blocked that communication that is my issue
[12:00] <stacy-> i am trying to connect to  google or youtube ...when i am on a foreign server
[12:01] <ikonia> stacy-: stacy- what is stopping you ?
[12:01] <ikonia> adamkavala: drop your iptables rules
[12:01] <stacy-> right now there are firewalls at certain locations stopping me
[12:02] <ikonia> stacy-: ahhh you're in china
[12:02] <ikonia> is that correct ?
[12:02] <ikonia> and you're trying to bypass your china IP with a proxy server
[12:02] <CoodingCookie> hey guys :)
[12:02] <stacy-> ikonia..the other way around
[12:02] <ikonia> stacy-: /
[12:02] <ikonia> ?
[12:02] <ikonia> what ?
[12:02] <Mandeep_Singh> http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2016/03/27/ How can I see these logs? What is specific file name for this channel.
[12:03] <ikonia> stacy-: I can see from your IP your on a china based ISP
[12:03] <ikonia> Mandeep_Singh: open that link in a URL
[12:03] <stacy-> usa to china then to usa
[12:03] <ikonia> it's that simple
[12:03] <ikonia> stacy-: you're on a China IP now
[12:03] <EriC^^> Mandeep_Singh: #ubuntu.txt
[12:03] <stacy-> ikonia...that is a routed ip you are seeing
[12:03] <ikonia> stacy-: this is becoming a bit of a joke
[12:04] <ikonia> stacy-: I can see your on a china IP - your geo location shows you as china
[12:04] <stacy-> i am from california ikonia
[12:04] <ikonia> stacy-: and yet your on a china based ISP
[12:05] <Mandeep_Singh> Ah thanks! EriC^^
[12:05] <stacy-> proxy server
[12:05] <ikonia> stacy-: everything you say in this channel is very questionable how honeset you are being
[12:05] <ikonia> stacy-: right - so if you know how to setup a proxy server connection, you should know how to set up a proxy server connection back out
[12:05] <stacy-> i am stuck at the back out part
[12:05] <ikonia> stacy-: you do it the same way as the in part
[12:06] <ikonia> stacy-: tell you what, drop your china proxy connection, and come in this channel on an USA ISP, - where you say you are, and I'll help you
[12:08] <stacy-> if i do that how am i going to be able to login from ubuntu that is on the remote site?
[12:08] <ikonia> stacy-: I'm sorry - I don't believe much of what you are telling me and this has to stop in this channel
[12:08] <ikonia> stacy-: this channel is here for ubuntu technical support, we will help you with that IF you follow the instructions and READ the documentation you are given
[12:08] <cfhowlett> stacy-, want vpn?  1.  choose a vpn provider.  2.  set up account with provider   3. read the vpn providers setup instructions  4. setup your ubuntu.    for example ... https://www.expressvpn.com/support/vpn-setup/manual-config-for-linux-ubuntu-with-openvpn/
[12:09] <ikonia> if you persist with not being honest / changing information and ignoring advice and documentation, you will not be able to use the channel any more
[12:09] <Mathisen> i can vouch for that ikonia i set up joomla for him yesterday with teamviewer he was connected to a remote desktop from windows machine and google and so on was blocked..
[12:09] <Mathisen> true story
[12:09] <stacy-> thanks cfhowllett.. that must be it
[12:10] <ikonia> this stinks that someone can setup a proxy out - but has zero idea how to repeat the process a second time
[12:10] <adamkavala> Mathisen dont u have time to help me please ...

[12:14] <Mathisen> adamkavala, what port is the counter strike server on ? 27015 ?
[12:14] <cfhowlett> lubuntu is optimized for older, legacy hardware and is much less resource-hungry

[13:07] <cfhowlett> karlonsong, doesn't matter.  your box, your choice.
[13:08] <karlonsong> yes. but which is less troublesome and more favored by the master developers?
[13:08] <karlonsong> someone recommends: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -f
[13:08] <cfhowlett> karlonsong, 1.  no "master developers" here.  2.  if you are unsure what the commands do, read the man pages.

Then I wiped sda and installed Ubuntu, and was able to change permissions of sdb easily. Now I want to do a reinstall on sda, so I'm wondering: will doing so have me run into permission issues with sdb?
[14:00] <LunaLovegood> I put Ubuntu 15.04 (with XFCE) on my grandma's laptop a while ago, but she complains that it sometimes asks for a password (root:root or user:user in this case). How do I make it so it never asks for any passwords? (it already has autologon)
[14:02] <CoodingCookiee> thanks vervet and BluesKaj
[14:03] <niuoh> sdf
[14:03] <EriC^^> odisa: it depends, what permissions did you have?
[14:04] <odisa> EriC^^: uhh it was a while ago.. I just changed ownership and permissions recursively to myself after installing Ubuntu
[14:06] <najeeb> q
[14:06] <silskin> hi
[14:07] <odisa_> EriC^^: sorry, chat froze. Did I miss your reply?
[14:08] <EriC^^> odisa: the permissions go by the uid usually, so if that changes the permissions will change
[14:08] <SchrodingersScat> odisa_: if you keep a working liveusb handy then it seems like you could boot into the live image and change permissions if you ran into problems.  Does windows even respect those permissions?
[14:08] <EriC^^> odisa_: it's no big deal though, you can chown them recursively again
[14:08] <Revian1> odisa_: I do something similar and, if you use the same username, you shouldn't have any problems.
[14:09] <EriC^^> Revian1: username doesn't matter, it's the uid, usually 1000
[14:09] <Revian1> EriC^^: Ah, ok
[14:09] <EriC^^> like if you mount another filesystem with files of uid 1001 they'll appear as the username you have in your system that's currently 1001
[14:09] <odisa_> EriC^^, SchrodingersScat: Well that's my main concern: I know that handling windows files is easy with linux, but I'm a bit iffy how/if it will compete when linux to linux
[14:10] <odisa_> Revian1: but if it goes by UID as EriC^^ says, wouldn't you still run into problems?
[14:10] <EriC^^> odisa_: if the uid is the same it wouldn't matter
[14:11] <odisa_> EriC^^: So.. can I note my current UID and make a temp user account under that UID on the new install to change permissions?
[14:11] <EriC^^> nothing a chown can't fix though
[14:11] <daica> hi people, anyone knows how to make feh skip task bar/
[14:11] <daica> ?
[14:11] <EriC^^> odisa_: no, just after you install do sudo chown <newuser>: -R /mounted/filesystem
[14:12] <odisa_> EriC^^: Oh. Wait, so what even protects my files then if it's that easy?
[14:12] <odisa_> Anyone with a live USB can just access my files?
[14:12] <EriC^^> odisa_: nothing does, if somebody has physical access it's easy to read anything
[14:12] <EriC^^> odisa_: yeah
[14:13] <SchrodingersScat> odisa_: yep, unless you encrypt them
[14:13] <odisa_> Huh. I thought it was only that easy with Windows, and that Linux respected the ownership to the point of not allowing to change it
[14:14] <odisa_> Ok, thanks. I guess I'll try that then. Out of curiosity: would it be possible to remove ownership/permission restrictions alltogether?
[14:14] <EriC^^> odisa_: nope, if somebody has sudo then he can change whatever he wants
[14:14] <derproiju> Running Ubuntu 15.10. How do I make the Ralink RT3290 Bluetooth Adapter work?
[14:14] <darkangel> Hello i was just curious is there a way to make it so when a person makes a html file creates directory like <a href="folder/index.html> is there a way to just press 1 button and it make the html file and folder for you very quick in Geany or some text editor developer program?
[14:15] <derproiju> The source code for 14.10 and 12.04 on the Internet doesn't work. It either gives me compile errors, or I cannot insmod.
[14:15] <derproiju> source code of the driver*
[14:15] <odisa_> so the superuser of a OS other than the one that created the file(s) still trumps the original superuser?
[14:16] <silskin> stupid question: how do we leave a channel ?
[14:16] <odisa_> ./part silskin
[14:16] <SchrodingersScat> silskin: can try /close or /part
[14:16] <silskin> thank you ^^'
[14:17] <EriC^^> odisa_: yeah basically the files are on the filesystem and they have uid tags of who owns it
[14:18] <EriC^^> odisa_: linux mounts them but it doesn't know if it's for this pc or another, so if you mount a filesystem it'll mount it with those permissions and if you have sudo on that pc you can modify them
[14:19] <odisa_> EriC^^: Ahh, interesting. So what are my options in terms of encryption? I've tried crypt-luks once before but that was a major headache.
[14:19] <EriC^^> luks is the norm i guess
[14:19] <EriC^^> you could just encrypt a dir with ecryptfs
[14:20] <derproiju> Anyone?
[14:20] <derproiju> Please do take a look at my problem.
[14:22] <derproiju> Please, people.
[14:22] <odisa_> EriC^^: Ahh that rings a bell. I had problems with backups with crypt-luks, so I'll look into ecryptfs, thank you.
[14:24] <yerm> damn
[14:25] <EriC^^> odisa_: no problem
[14:27] <derproiju> I apologise for the spam. However, I would like to have my problem solved ASAP, like everyone with a problem here.
[14:28] <SchrodingersScat> !ralink

[14:30] <derproiju> SchrodingersScat: I have problems with the Bluetooth part, and I have already tried compiling the source code mentioned at the Ubuntu Forums. Seems like Linux Kernel 4.x doesn't accept the procedures, which were designed for 3.x.
[14:31] <SynxSynxSynx> Hey all, I'm having an issue mounting an NFS share on an ubuntu 14.4 LXC container. The error I"m getting on the ubuntu client is http://pastebin.com/z4YXjB3G On the freenas server my /etc/exports looks like this http://pastebin.com/C660TTZn
[14:35] <derproiju> However, thank you for the support.
[14:36] <MonkeyDust> SynxSynxSynx  in /etc/exports, you must specify (rw), as per share
[14:37] <SynxSynxSynx> So
[14:38] <SynxSynxSynx> http://pastebin.com/bfqPdmbq
[14:38] <SynxSynxSynx> Like that?
[14:39] <MonkeyDust> SynxSynxSynx  start here https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/network-file-system.html
[14:40] <SynxSynxSynx> Yeah I did
[14:40] <SynxSynxSynx> Only I'm not using an ubuntu server
[14:40] <SynxSynxSynx> for the host
[14:40] <SynxSynxSynx> I"m using a freenas device
[14:40] <SynxSynxSynx> And other shares mount on the freenas device
[14:40] <MonkeyDust> SynxSynxSynx  it makes no difference, notice the ro and the rw in the example
[14:40] <SynxSynxSynx> Infact the ubuntu is an LXC container who's hard drive lives on the NFS share
[14:41] <SynxSynxSynx> I don't understand what you mean
[14:41] <SynxSynxSynx> In the exports on the freenas?
[14:42] <MonkeyDust> SynxSynxSynx  a container and a nas, that makes it hard to follow
[14:42] <SynxSynxSynx> Okay.
[14:42] <SynxSynxSynx> I have 4 proxmox hosts configured to use a freenas NFS share as their primary storage.
[14:43] <SynxSynxSynx> I have 1 LXC container that is running ubuntu 14.4
[14:43] <MonkeyDust> SynxSynxSynx  where does your /etc/exports sit? inside the container?
[14:43] <SynxSynxSynx> No
[14:43] <SynxSynxSynx> In the freenas system
[14:43] <SynxSynxSynx> the 1 LXC container resides on a proxmox node
[14:43] <SynxSynxSynx> The node it lives on can see the NFS share.
[14:43] <MonkeyDust> so from your main system to the container, and then to the nas?
[14:44] <SynxSynxSynx> No the container should operate as it's own OS
[14:44] <SynxSynxSynx> Masqurading through the nic
[14:46] <MonkeyDust> this my irssi runs inside an lxc container and i have a nas too, but never combined them... it's challenging
[14:46] <danny-holland-ra> hi from holland
[14:47] <danny-holland-ra> hi
[14:49] <derproiju> Anyone, please?
[14:50] <MonkeyDust> SynxSynxSynx  yes, try   '/mnt/Capacitor/Proxmox/Backups /mnt/Capacitor/Download (rw)'
[14:50] <SynxSynxSynx> Okay
[14:50] <Revian1> When a program generates a notification, is it possible to see that notification on the lock screen? If so, how do I implement this?
[14:50] <Revian1> Ubuntu 15.10 here
[14:52] <MonkeyDust> SynxSynxSynx  don't forget to restart nfs-server after each change
[14:53] <derproiju> Revian1: Have you tried using GNOME DM? It has such a feature?
[14:53] <greiner> how to start to open the audio by HDMI?
[14:53] <Revian1> derproiju: I'm not sure which DM I'm using, I have the default Unity system.
[14:54] <Revian1> derproiju: LightDM?
[14:54] <derproiju> Revian1: Indeed.
[14:55] <Revian1> derproiju: Thank you
[14:55] <SynxSynxSynx> Freenas changes the /exports/ every time I modify it through vi
[14:55] <SynxSynxSynx> and restart the service
[14:56] <greiner> OK,thanks
[14:58] <MonkeyDust> SynxSynxSynx  it's beyond my knowledge, try and ask in #freenas
[14:58] <SynxSynxSynx> Yeah I have
[15:09] <SynxSynxSynx> MonkeyDust: I'm getting pushback from freenas
[15:10] <SynxSynxSynx> community
[15:10] <SynxSynxSynx> They're blaming ubuntu
[15:11] <SynxSynxSynx> I mean I can mount it in windows
[15:13] <skinux> Curious...is there still a tool for creating our own Ubuntu distributions?
[15:14] <cfhowlett> !uck | skinux
[15:15] <skinux> Oh, it's only for Live CDs, not for installs?
[15:15] <popey> there's also https://ubuntu-pi-flavour-maker.org/

[15:16] <popey> skinux: also http://pinguyos.com/2015/09/pinguy-builder-an-app-to-backupremix-buntu/
[15:18] <MonkeyDust> SynxSynxSynx  yes, they're not very friendly, i experienced it too
[15:19] <MonkeyDust> i have freenas too
[15:19] <SynxSynxSynx> It's pretty interesting

[15:56] <tinyhippo> when I insert a MicroSD adapter with a MicroSD card into my ubuntu 14.04 machine, it detects a new USB mass storage (/dev/sde) however I can't mount it or do *anything* with it, it doesn't show up in fdisk -l or parted, what shoudl I do?
[15:57] <ikonia> tinyhippo: what happens if you do "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sde"
[15:57] <Penorsaurus> Ìû
[15:59] <tinyhippo> ikonia: no output
[15:59] <ikonia> what do you mean no output
[15:59] <ikonia> as in it just returns to the prompt, or it does nothing
[16:03] <ArchOS> can someone help me find a zip archive full of all the different icons in ubuntu 10.10
[16:03] <ArchOS> hopefully in PNG
[16:03] <ArchOS> I'm... experimenting with a game that allows you to skin it to look like things...
[16:03] <ikonia> nope
[16:04] <xangua> ArchOS: you can install the human icon theme from the Ubuntu repositories
[16:04] <MarderIII> tinyhippo: check the output of the dmesg command
[16:04] <tinyhippo> ikonia: returns to the prompt
[16:04] <ArchOS> I'm not running Ubuntu. I'm just looking for the human icon theme in PNG format in a zip
[16:04] <ArchOS> so I can use it in the game's skinning feature
[16:04] <diorgenes> SEI LÁ
[16:04] <ikonia> ArchOS: sorry, no
[16:05] <ikonia> tinyhippo: leave the card reader plugged in, removed the media card and plug it back in, what happens
[16:06] <tinyhippo> MarderIII: output of dmesg: https://p.tinyhip.pw/view/3857badd
[16:06] <tinyhippo> ikonia: no difference in dmesg or fdisk -l when only removing the media card, and not the reader
[16:07] <ikonia> tinyhippo: when you plug it back in, do you see a trigger response in the syslog
[16:08] <tinyhippo> ikonia: no additional output to syslog
[16:09] <ikonia> thats suggesting to me the usb port is no longer responding, unplug the device and plug it back in, do you see it redtect it in the syslog
[16:10] <MarderIII> ikonia: wrong usb driver/module?
[16:11] <ikonia> no
[16:11] <ikonia> or it wouldn't detect it in the first place
[16:11] <MarderIII> point

[16:29] <ArchOS> It's almost indistinguishable from the real thing...
[16:29] <ikonia> why are you pasting this here ?
[16:29] <ArchOS> because I found the humanity icon theme?
[16:29] <ikonia> right, but what has this got to do with us ?
[16:30] <Capricorn> ikonia: I had found the problem :-)
[16:30] <ArchOS> well I'm just saying that I programmed something and managed to make it look like ubuntu.
[16:30] <ikonia> Capricorn: tell me !
[16:30] <ArchOS> despite it being written in C#
[16:30] <ikonia> ArchOS: who cares ?
[16:30] <ikonia> ArchOS: it's nothing to do with this channels topic
[16:30] <ArchOS> nobody, but it's still cool to see
[16:31] <ArchOS> anyways, my issue has resolved itself.
[16:32] <Capricorn> I had found a lucky webpage on the internet. That was also about multiple cores
[16:32] <ikonia> Capricorn: explain
[16:33] <Capricorn> So i follow that lead, and found out that that was after a suppend session
[16:33] <Capricorn> My cores 0 was UP but 1 - 3 was offline
[16:34] <ikonia> so suspending your machine, when it came up, it came back with not all cores active
[16:34] <Capricorn> That must be a bug in the suspend program
[16:34] <ikonia> there are many bugs with suspend, I've never seen that though
[16:34] <ikonia> great find
[16:35] <Capricorn> No the fix was, to reboot the system
[16:35] <ikonia> I'm sure dax will also be interesting
[16:35] <ikonia> interested
[16:36] <Capricorn> When i see <DAX> i will also explain that to him
[16:36] <Capricorn> Or you must be see him before me
[16:39] <Capricorn> ikonia: Do you know where to inform the developers to check the suspend-program for that error??

[16:41] <backbox1> hi
[16:44]  * EOBeav is away: [heading out for a few hours]
[16:45] <TandyUK_> hey guys, got an issue with ubuntu 14.04 and an nvidia card which is only connected to a tv - its giving me no output whatsoever
[16:45] <TandyUK_> i can get into it remotely, and ive checked the nvidia drivers are installed, but no clue how to tell it to start X on the hdmi output
[16:45] <ikonia> have you configured it to use the correct output on the card ?
[16:45] <TandyUK_> i have no idea how to do that, being the only output that is connected, it should auto detect no?
[16:46] <ikonia> TandyUK_: the nvida modules can sometimes need help being confiugred
[16:46] <TandyUK_> tbf im not even seeing bios output while it boots which concerns me, prior to a reinstall due to failed hdd, this was working fine
[16:46] <ikonia> so it was working on the TV before ?
[16:46] <TandyUK_> ok, and where do i confifure the nvidia module
[16:47] <TandyUK_> yes its only ever been connected by hdmi
[16:47] <ikonia> TandyUK_: when the hard disk failued, you did a re-install yes ?
[16:47] <TandyUK_> yeah i had this at my house, did the reinstall, got the drivers etc installed, now its back round my mates
[16:48] <ikonia> has it ever worked at your mates ?
[16:48] <TandyUK_> at home it was connected by vga, so clearly its still trying to use vga output
[16:48] <TandyUK_> before the reinstall, yes
[16:48] <ikonia> so it worked on the HDMI to your friends TV before the re-install
[16:48] <TandyUK_> correct
[16:48] <ikonia> so you have two options
[16:49] <TandyUK_> atm its plugged in, and i have ssh to it
[16:49] <TandyUK_> but the tv is showing no device plugged in
[16:49] <ikonia> 1.) look at the xorg logs to see what the x server is doing - try to work out a plan from that
[16:49] <ikonia> 2.) tell the machine to boot into fail safe mode, then use that x display to confiugre the card with the nvidia-settings tool to see if that gets it working
[16:51] <occu> hello
[16:51] <occu> where can i get suport for backbox?
[16:52] <TandyUK_> ok, how do i boot it into failsafe mode, ive got keyboard etc connected, but without seeing the screen at boot kinda tricky ;)
[16:53] <occu> or does anyone now why do i get this message at startup "vboxclient:the virtualbox kernel service is not running. exiting
[16:54] <occu> and how do i get rid of it
[16:54] <occu> i have google it but no good solution yet
[17:01] <craptalk> i cant send message to the channel why is that?
[17:02] <exnihilo> Hi there
[17:03] <BlankSpace> hi exni
[17:04] <exnihilo> Is there anyone here who remember the option to enable in CCSM that enables to move a window to another workscreen by moving it with the mouse to the edge of the screen?
[17:05] <Dewin> occu: Are you running under a virtual machine?
[17:05] <rodhash> folks .. my ubuntu is not recognizing any longer a flash drive after inserting luks passphrase .. it should automatically recognize it and show it in the "pv" list, which doesnt happen any longer ... any idea how to recover from this? any issue with ubuntu 15.10 ? I guess the problem happened after the upgrade
[17:05] <exnihilo> Precisely
[17:05] <exnihilo> That's why I need that
[17:05] <exnihilo> Got me at first attempt Dewin
[17:06] <exnihilo> Am I the only one who think CCSM is confusing?
[17:06] <Dewin> occu: If not, the message is harmless (though you can remove the relevant virtualbox packages if you care), if you are, I'm not awake enough to do any more thorough troubleshooting.

[17:40] <katerina> Hey, I want to export a directory, so a remote host can write in it. I have done it via NFS and it works just fine, but now i want to try nbd. But i haven't managed to use it properly. Can someone help me out? I use ubuntu 15.10. (not sure if this is the right place to ask)
[17:42] <krytarik> !ask | renn0xtk9
[17:43] <bennie> quit/
[17:45] <frostschutz> katerina, nbd does not export directories, it exports block devices; only one client may use this device at a time, most filesystems do not support clustering. also if it's remote you should handle encryption somehow, like tunnel it through ssh/vpn or whatever
[17:46] <xentity1x> Hi I'm having trouble switching to the nvidia gpu on my thinkpad w530 on ubuntu 15.10. When I select nvidia performance mode I get this error http://pastebin.com/CvggwNhW
[17:46] <xentity1x> Anyone know why?
[17:47] <frostschutz> katerina, so if you want to access the files at the remote and local at the same time, it won't work with nbd, you'll end up with a corrupted filesystem. it's fundamentally different from NFS where any number of clients use the same set of files at the same time
[17:48] <shane__> I am having problems setting up a dlna on my ubuntu mate 16.04. i store all my media on a second drive and don't know how to set the dlna up to read from it. can anyone help me out with this?
[17:52] <katerina> frostschutz: I understand that. The scenario is that only one client will have access to the file. I was about to create a big file, mkfs it, then export it with rw permissions. Will this result in corruption? If so should I use a clustered filesystem? Thanx
[17:56] <katerina> frostschutz: I don't want to access the directory simultaneously from the server and the client. Just when the client finishes writing, only then the server would read the written files

[19:02] <arash> hello, I have a problem in ubuntu, I have some magazines that It doesnt read properly (shows weird characters) how can I fix it?
[19:03] <EOBeav> arash, what kind of magazines? Are they pdf files, or something online?
[19:03] <arash> E0Beav pdf
[19:04] <EOBeav> What are you using to open it?
[19:04] <arash> the default program
[19:04] <arash> doc viewer 3.16.1
[19:04] <supyaboi> who's using 16.04 beta 2
[19:05] <EOBeav> Try opening it with Firefox or something else to see if you get a problem that way
[19:05] <DJones> supyaboi: best place to ask about that would be #Ubuntu+1
[19:05] <EOBeav> supyaboi: I think there's a channel called ubuntu +1 for that stuff
[19:05] <supyaboi> thanks
[19:11] <arash> E0beav can it be fonts? because google chrome shows it perfectly
[19:13] <Kevin`> how can I have ubuntu show lvm volume names in the UI (instead of "XGB Volume")
[19:31] <cesare> hello
[19:41] <cybergig22> I was wondering if I could get help as to whether or not it would be a good idea to install ubuntu on a device I have since im not familiar with installing on tablets
[19:42] <cybergig22> the specs for the tablet are located here http://pastebin.com/NGihGYsv
[19:43] <DJones> !touch | cybergig22 I'd be tempted to ask in the touch channel,
[19:44] <cybergig22> alright, not sure where to start when it comes to tablets lmao
[19:46] <cybergig22> ty for the help :) i'll check in the touch channel
[19:46] <anonmatir> is it me, or does ubuntu not let 2 softwares to be installed at the same time, if one is using apt-get from terminal and the other from softwarecenter
[19:46] <EOBeav> Generally speaking, no
[19:47] <fractal_> hey guys. so i have Kubuntu installed and i want to run memtest86+ but i can't seem to find it based on these instructions
[19:47] <fractal_> http://askubuntu.com/questions/591488/how-do-i-run-memtest86
[19:47] <DJones> anonmatir: no, they both use the same background apps, sho can only be accessed by one or the other at any one time
[19:48] <Guy1524> Hey guys, this is really annoying, my boot pauses for 90 seconds after this: random: nonblocking pool is initialized   what is going on?  Here is my system report: http://tortle.no-ip.org/hardinfo_report.html  DMESG:   http://paste.ubuntu.com/15525441/
[19:48] <anonmatir> i see, thank you DJones
[19:48] <craptalk> why do i receive "cant send to channel" in particular channel? does it mean that i need to be invited first?
[19:48] <anonmatir> thank you EOBeav
[19:48] <jsabeaudry> How can I transform my screen into a video device that programs that look for webcams will see? (I want to share my screen to meet.jit.si)
[19:49] <fractal_> does ubuntu no longer have memtest as an option in GRUB?
[19:49] <craptalk> can anyone answer me
[19:49] <Bashing-om> fractal_: UEFI system ? Then it is the escape key that grub looks for .
[19:49] <anonmatir> craptalk: you probably need to be in the channel and or have voice if channel is moderated, etc,
[19:49] <fractal_> Bashing-om: yes
[19:50] <fractal_> Bashing-om: Esc will bring up the memtest options you are saying?
[19:50] <EOBeav> Funny, I installed ubuntu 14.04 on my 80 y/o parents computer and they love it. A lot more intuitive than the Win they were running before.
[19:51] <anonmatir> EOBeav: had same experience with parents, unity still has a simple interface, compared to lot happening n win and similar
[19:51] <Bashing-om> fractal_: Reboot, and as soon as the firmware screen clears repeatedly depress/release the escape key . there is but a 3 second window of opportunity .
[19:51] <anonmatir> will i should say, all/most desktop managers stilll have a simple interface (by default)
[19:51] <EOBeav> Unity was actually a big selling point for them...what they needed was all lined up on the left side of the screen
[19:52] <fractal_> Bashing-om: will do. off t try now! thanks :)
[19:52] <anonmatir> and i still hate unity :/
[19:52] <Bashing-om> fractal_: Brings up the grub boot menu . From there is advanced options . In this screen is the memtest .
[19:52] <craptalk> anonmatir: what do you mean?
[19:53] <anonmatir> craptalk: https://www.quakenet.org/help/general/why-do-i-receive-cannot-send-to-channel
[19:53] <compdoc> unity is great. just cant connect to it with vnc or xrdp or x2go
[19:54] <anonmatir> well you know, after using windows, android, ip*s' and couple desktop managers, a desktop manager is just a "G" ui
[19:55] <anonmatir> sme things placed differently, named similarly, and designed xyzly
[19:55] <anonmatir> same* things
[19:56] <anonmatir> at times i feel even the os does not matter, any os can probably do whatever we need it to do
[19:56] <fractal__> Bashing-om: that simply took me to a GRUB> console
[19:56] <fractal__> :(
[19:56] <fractal__> why aren't my memtest options showing up
[19:57] <fractal__> i don't get it. is it supposed to be this difficult to run a memory test?
[19:57] <Bashing-om> fractal__: Advanced option in that screen -> memtest .
[19:57] <fractal__> i remember when they were standard on ISOs
[19:57] <fractal__> Bashing-om: on my installed GRUB, or from the live USB?
[19:57] <titanium17> guys, I used the screenshot tool in the dash of ubuntu before. Now I switched to i3, I cant find it anymore. How do I launch that app from the command line?
[19:58] <Bashing-om> fractal__: Available on both .
[19:58] <fractal__> but what you told me to do took me to a shell prompt
[19:58] <fractal__> i have no clue waht to type there
[19:58] <Bashing-om> fractal__: Desktop .iso that is .
[19:58] <fractal__> i have the Kubuntu ISO
[19:58] <fractal__> maybe it is not on this one
[19:59] <fractal__> advanced options just gave me different kernels and recover modes
[20:00] <fractal__> there were no memory options in there i already looked
[20:00] <cybergig22> by chance would installing the desktop version still work on a tablet?
[20:00] <fractal__> trust me. i dug through it before coming in here because i swore i could figure it out
[20:01] <Bashing-om> fractal__: I could reboot .. and will if it helps ya . Are you working the install or from the live environment ?
[20:01] <MrMarcelSpielt> hello
[20:04] <fractal_> Bashing-om: i just checked again a 3rd time. definitely no memtest options under Advanced Boot options for Ubuntu
[20:06] <Bashing-om> fractal_: I will reboot into my install and "look" and make sure .
[20:06] <fractal_> Kubuntu 15.10 is what i am running
[20:07] <Bashing-om> Take me a bit to boot 15.10 .. be back soonest .
[20:07] <fractal_> i've been on this for more than an hour now and it is really frustrating. i want to move on already but the memory i want tested
[20:08] <recon_lap3> fractal_: http://askubuntu.com/questions/591488/how-do-i-run-memtest86
[20:08] <fractal_> recon_lap3: i was already there and those instructions didn't work for me :(
[20:08] <fractal_> i don't have memtest options on my GRUB menu
[20:08] <recon_lap3> fractal_: do you have a live boot?
[20:09] <fractal_> of kubuntu. yes
[20:09] <recon_lap3> fractal_: think your GRUB menu's been edited
[20:09] <fractal_> this is a fresh install
[20:09] <fractal_> besides running updates
[20:09] <recon_lap3> fractal_: cant say about Kubuntu, but all the others have it
[20:10] <fractal_> i see. so perhaps i will download the main version
[20:10] <recon_lap3> fractal_: not sure, but I see that menu everytime i boot
[20:10] <Blueking> What to look for when having networking issues  seems I have frequently netdropouts  every few minutes...  2 weeks ago it was dropping out every 24h  :/
[20:11] <fractal_> recon_lap3: everytime you boot the live, right?
[20:11] <fractal_> not your install
[20:11] <recon_lap3> fractal_: every time i boot, live or installed
[20:11] <fractal_> then where is mine!! :/
[20:11] <fractal_> ugh..
[20:12] <fractal_> even my windows partition shows up in grub
[20:12] <fractal_> but no memtest86 to be found
[20:12] <fractal_> :(
[20:12] <EriC^^> memtest is for 32bit i think
[20:12] <fractal_> but i have a 64 bit system and suspect i may have memory issues
[20:13] <fractal_> if this is the case, what will i do now
[20:13] <EriC^^> i think there's an iso you can download or something
[20:13] <EriC^^> or maybe the bios has a diagnostics
[20:14] <EriC^^> fractal_: oh, it's a uefi thing
[20:15] <fractal_> EriC^^: i see.. i am new to UEFI
[20:15] <EriC^^> http://www.memtest86.com/technical.htm
[20:16] <EriC^^> d/l http://www.memtest86.com/downloads/memtest86-usb.tar.gz
[20:16] <EriC^^> you can probably boot the iso from your current grub without a usb
[20:17] <fractal_> that is over my head
[20:17] <fractal_> lol
[20:17] <fractal_> i wouldn't know where to start
[20:18] <EriC^^> start by downloading it :p
[20:18] <fractal_> EriC^^: thanks for the help
[20:18] <fractal_> i did
[20:18] <recon_lap3> fractal_: you know mem testing can take up to 24hours
[20:19] <fractal_> oh no
[20:19] <fractal_> :(
[20:19] <recon_lap3> it's one slow process
[20:19] <fractal_> i'll use my backup computer then
[20:28] <ZnR> heya peeps I get http://pastebin.com/2g6YeRFk please help
[20:29] <Bashing-om> fraggle_: Nope, not a good reference here . I multi boot and the only instance of 'memtest' is on my default/original 14.04 install. I did boot up a 15.04 .iso and "test memory" is available on that .iso .
[20:44] <ubuntu102> So, I found an old 80 gig hdd from the windows XP era. Is it worth using to try and put ubuntu on? Or is that a waste of time?
[20:45] <crazybluek> 80 gig hdd   might die any time ?
[20:45] <Hulio> anyone ever know anything that provide free fax ?
[20:45] <bekks> ubuntu102: It is a total waste of time. Just get a new disk, and install Ubuntu.
[20:45] <ubuntu102> I have no idea when it would die. It was in use a year or two ago when a church was throwing it out and I grabbed it
[20:46] <ubuntu102> they threw out like... 15 computers
[20:46] <bekks> Hulio: All free fax solutions arent depending on an acruall OS, they are web services.
[20:46] <Hulio> well any ligit site?
[20:46] <ubuntu102> It uses those crappy ribbon connectors. Not even sata
[20:46] <bekks> ubuntu102: they need to be taken into a museum of prehistoric technology, instead.
[20:47] <bekks> Hulio: Strongly depends on the country you are in.
[20:47] <duobix> Hi guys
[20:47] <ubuntu102> I'd use a newer disk I have laying around, but it's a laptop HD and I don't have a mount to be able to fit the tension clips on it
[20:47] <Hulio> US
[20:48] <bekks> Hulio: So search for "free fax us provider".
[20:48] <duobix> I got a dell venue 8 pro, and tried to try ubuntu 15.10 on it, but after I choose anything in grub it blackscreens - so I cannot go live or install
[20:49] <duobix> anyone got a clue? Secureboot disabled
[20:49] <bekks> duobix: you could try the "nomodeset" kernel option.
[20:49] <bekks> !nomodeset | duobix
[20:49] <ubuntu102> I was thinking of trying to put the newest version of ubuntu on the 80 gig to test out the OS without risking my other stuff
[20:50] <bekks> ubuntu102: Just get a new disk.
[20:50] <duobix> I also tried to book into diskcheck (was it named like that? it should work normally) and it also didn't work.
[20:50] <ubuntu102> I really should :\
[20:53] <mish41> anyone have issues running dropbox on ubuntu 14.04, permission issues?
[20:53] <bekks> mish41: That poll will not solve your issue.
[20:53] <duobix> ok bekks, I did read the nomodeset link - but I'm not really sure how do I do this from grub
[20:53] <duobix> I go into command mode and then what?
[20:53] <bekks> duobix: Its described in the link.
[20:54] <bekks> duobix: you add "nomodeset" as described in the link.
[20:58] <mkinkles> Hello! Does anyone suggest a laptop, specifically for learning Linux, programming and hosting 2 vms (max)?
[20:58] <duobix> Ok, so I edit one line, write nomodeset, and then ctrl+x.
[20:58] <duobix> no luck again.
[20:58] <bekks> duobix: so which line did you edit?
[20:59] <duobix> I did edit the line after "quite boot"
[20:59] <yeats> mkinkles: I'm a big fan of the Dell XPS 13, which can come with Ubuntu installed
[20:59] <yeats> mkinkles: otherwise, check out system76
[21:00] <bekks> duobix: the line after? that was the wrong line then-
[21:00] <duobix> the line went like: linux (...) boot ---nomodeset
[21:00] <bekks> duobix: you need to edit the line containing "quiet splash"
[21:00] <bekks> duobix: and the link did not tell you to type "--nomodeset", but only "nomodeset".
[21:00] <mkinkles> yeats:  Sick! I will look into it.
[21:00] <duobix> I'll go into config to confirm
[21:00] <paulo> #raspberrypi
[21:01] <mkinkles> yeats:  Do you suggest a desktop (or external monitor) for programming out would the dell xps be good? It boils down to pref but just curious.
[21:01] <duobix> The link did tell me to go to the end of the linux line, and then type nomodeset. I got --- at the end of the line. Shoudl I write "nomodeset" before "---"?
[21:01] <paulo> #list
[21:02] <paulo> whats de chanel of orangepi
[21:02] <yeats> mkinkles: I actually prefer desktops, but the XPS 13 has been very good for my work setup (note that it's a hiDPI display and there are some tweaks to make it look right)
[21:03] <squinty> !alis | paulo
[21:03] <yeats> mkinkles: but the Dell-installed Ubuntu probably works out of the box
[21:04] <bekks> duobix: a) you have "--" not "---" at the end of the line. And you need to remove quiet, and add nomodeset instead. before the --
[21:04] <duobix> nope, I got "---" at the end of the line, double checked on that
[21:05] <duobix> ah, ok, I'll remove quiet
[21:05] <mkinkles> yeats:  Why do you prefer desktops?
[21:06] <mkinkles> yeats:  I own one but I feel like I kinda want a laptop :D I am super finicky.
[21:06] <bekks> duobix: and then you add "nomodeset" instead.
[21:07] <duobix> I did it like this: "linux (...) /splash nomodeset--" and it does not boot. I think there is something else wrong, because even numlock is not working, and it should. Also my usb stick data read indicator is not flashing, which is super strange and AFAIK cannot be overriden.
[21:08] <bekks> duobix: No.
[21:08] <bekks> duobix: you removed a blank before the --
[21:08] <duobix> a blank?
[21:08] <bekks> duobix: Yes. " ".
[21:09] <jefinc> a space even...
[21:09] <duobix> Ok, so how should I format the string? and is /splash an option of anything?
[21:10] <bekks> duobix: "splash nomodeset --"  at the end of the line.
[21:10] <duobix> Ok, now trying with the blank
[21:11] <duobix> black screen...
[21:11] <duobix> usb not flashing...
[21:11] <duobix> yup, it's not working.
[21:13] <duobix> Any other thoughts on this? The exact same pendrives and ubuntu boots fine on another baytrail tablet
[21:19] <duobix> Hmm, I gotta check what "set gfxpayload=keep" does
[21:21] <duobix> changed that to auto, no luck.
[21:21] <bekks> duobix: try replacing splash with nosplash
[21:23] <duobix> Ok, I did just that...
[21:23] <duobix> No luck again.
[21:24] <bekks> duobix: so you used "nosplash nomodeset --" ?
[21:24] <duobix> yes
[21:25] <duobix> I did that again just to confirm that I didn't mess up anything...
[21:25] <duobix> Still no luck.
[21:26] <duobix> Ok, now reading bugs through freedesktop about dv8p
[21:26] <bekks> duobix: can you type the exact complete line after your modification?
[21:27] <bekks> duobix: forget freedesktop, you get a black screen before X is even started.
[21:29] <duobix> forget what? I just had a little bit of success in here, as it seems that this tablet needs to perform boot through a different special menu
[21:29] <bekks> duobix: can you type the exact complete line after your modification?
[21:29] <duobix> Yes. Just give me a second.
[21:31] <duobix> linux /casper/vmlinuz/efi file=/cdrom/pressed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper nosplash nomodeset --
[21:31] <duobix> oh, it's vmlinuz.efi
[21:32] <duobix> Ok, just As I thought, After I used the different boot menu, it started
[21:33] <duobix> It went thorugh all the system D
[21:33] <bekks> duobix: which "different boot menu"?
[21:33] <duobix> Ok i got the desktop xD
[21:33] <duobix> Ok, let me get this straight: normally, you boot with setting an option inside bios, then rebooting
[21:34] <bekks> duobix: Which "setting an option inside bios"? If you want to boot a device, you just select it as boot device - is that what you are talking about?
[21:34] <duobix> BUT in this case, I needed to hold vol+ and select boot media, and then it works. freedesktop bug report says it operates on different mode
[21:35] <duobix> I normally did select it in bios, but after selecting it via the vol+ menu, it just works
[21:35] <bekks> duobix: what does freedesktop have to do with the boot process?
[21:35] <duobix> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82880
[21:36] <duobix> Because I did check there what could go wrong? baytrail tablets are crazy things, you know
[21:37] <amxstudio> t
[21:37] <amxstudio> list
[21:38] <duobix> And BTW I know I sound extremely dumb here, but yes, it did work
[21:42] <duobix> k, now I gotta try getting the wifi to run
[22:14] <f001i0> Hello.
[22:15] <Depariel> hi
[22:18] <Depariel> I'm using gadmin-proftpd to try to set up an ftp server, but whenever I try accessing it from FileZilla, it says invalid password (and gadmin-proftpd says no such user found)
[22:18] <Depariel> could someone point me in a productive direction?
[22:21] <Garry14> Depariel: Are U trying to remote it?
[22:22] <Depariel> Garry14: I'm not sure what you mean by that. I'm attempting to connect from inside my local network currently, but it will be used from outside my LAN once it's set up
[22:28] <Garry14> Hey, U use Fire Zilla? Sorry, I don't suggest U, but I just share to U that I had ever used FZ in my Ubuntu, n I removed It b'cause a same reason as U :D
[22:29] <Depariel> I'm using FileZilla on Windows, yeah
[22:30] <Depariel> I've also used ftptest.net and it did the same thing, though
[22:31] <Garry14> Hmmm... Have U disable ur
[22:31] <Garry14> ...
[22:32] <Garry14> What's that, I forget....
[22:32] <Garry14> Hmm...
[22:32] <Garry14> Firewall...
[22:32] <Garry14> !
[22:32] <Garry14> U need to disable ur firewall first
[22:32] <Garry14> ?
[22:32] <Depariel> how would the firewall give a "no such user" error?
[22:34] <Garry14> ask Stack Overflow :D
