[00:00] <YankDownUnder> mrtrousers: If you're running 16.04, well, the only thing I'd be able to tell you is that if the package that is in the repos doesn't work, you might want to wait a bit until it gets "upgraded" and then pushed down with the normal updates...unless you're desiring to "go outside of the system" and do it the old fashioned way...
[00:01] <WindTaLkeR> hi
[00:02] <mrtrousers> Ive tried compiling and all. Is there a way to get all the dependencies while compiling? auto-apt is supposed to do that but it doesent.
[00:03] <ovrflw0x> on ubuntu all audio outputs are detected, but on Xubuntu i only see one output!! how to fix this?
[00:07] <YankDownUnder> mrtrousers: From a logical standpoint, the "system" is not going to install "lower" versions of libraries...have you considered running a different version in a VM?
[00:08] <mrtrousers> well the thing is its for computing gpu, cpu, etc.. dont know if in virtual machine woudl be as good. WOuld it?
[00:09] <mrtrousers> And the thins is: Boinc says it supports, ubuntu, ubuntu says it supports boinc, but things dont work..
[00:09] <YankDownUnder> mrtrousers: Depends on the VM you create...however, that being said, I suppose the whole impetus to the situation you're in is exactly *how* important it is to run SETI/BOINC...and then make decisions based on that priority...
[00:10] <mrtrousers> Well of course, i could forget about it and go for a walk, but..
[00:11] <lordcirth> Well, thanks for reminding me to install Boinc on my new install.
[00:12] <mrtrousers> the documentation says it should work so it shuld work. Im stubborn like that.
[00:12] <YankDownUnder> mrtrousers: ...or run out and buy another monitor - OH WAIT, that's my plan, sorry... ;)
[00:12] <sarek> I use xset m 1 1 to adjust my mouse as a startup command, but it doesnt work on some startups, so i tried to do an @reboot /usr/bin/xset m 1 1 cronjob but that didnt work.   It just worked fine for me
[00:13] <lordcirth> It freezes?  Mine seems fine so far
[00:13] <mrtrousers> DO you have ubuntu 16.04? Are you using boinc? lordcirth
[00:13] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, yes, I literally just installed it now when I saw you asking
[00:13] <mrtrousers> Ok. DOes your gpu get recognized?
[00:13] <lordcirth> Kubuntu 16.04, but I doubt that makes a difference
[00:13] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, I haven't tried a GPU project yet.  I will test
[00:14] <mrtrousers> OK. And close the boinc manager/gui, and open it again.. See what happens..
[00:15] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, closing to tray?  Works fine
[00:15] <mrtrousers> what you mean closing to tray?
[00:16] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, by default, when you click X, it stays running in the notification tray
[00:16] <mrtrousers> to the left panel? no i mean close the whole thing and restart the program lrodcirth
[00:16] <mrtrousers> lordcirth
[00:16] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, ok I will try
[00:17] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, seems fine
[00:17] <mrtrousers> you closed totally, and reopened?  It works fine? With all functionality? buttons, etc..?
[00:18] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, seems fine
[00:18] <mrtrousers> well, not my case and got a new ubuntu 16.04 install
[00:19] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, what does stdout show?
[00:20] <mrtrousers> buttons become whitish and cannto be pushed. and guis says retrieveing data forever
[00:20] <mrtrousers> it says command not found
[00:21] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, what command?
[00:21] <mrtrousers> lorcirth is stdout a termina command?
[00:22] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, standard output.  As in, if you launch Boinc Mgr from the command line, does it give an error when it freezes?
[00:22] <mrtrousers> no, i launch it from search your computer in the tray
[00:23] <mrtrousers> ill install again
[00:23] <mrtrousers> sudo apt-get install boinc-client boinc-manager
[00:23] <mrtrousers> How do you launch it lordcirth?
[00:24] <mrtrousers> boinc manager command not found
[00:24] <squinty> hyphen
[00:24] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, boincmgr .  Use tab-complete, it's a wonderful thing
[00:24] <mrtrousers> ok boincmgr lordcirth
[00:25] <mrtrousers> buttons white, unable to connect to core client
[00:25] <squinty> fwiw, just installed it here with no problems
[00:26] <mrtrousers> and 512 gpu error, the ubuntu version just doesent work. At least for me
[00:27] <mrtrousers> squinty you installed?
[00:28] <squinty> mrtrousers, yes, seems to be no problem here
[00:28] <mrtrousers> did you open boinc manager?
[00:29] <mrtrousers> Ah ok, did you join a project? and start computing?
[00:29] <squinty> mrtrousers, yes and joined a project
[00:29] <mrtrousers> ok now close it
[00:29] <mrtrousers> the whole gui i mean
[00:29] <mrtrousers> If you want suspend the task before..
[00:31] <squinty> mrtrousers,  completely closed it and then brought it up agaain.  "Retrieving current status"  tbh, never ran this rascal before so am not really sure how it is supposed to respond when it is first opened
[00:31] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, did you install the extra package 'boinc-client-nvidia-cuda' ?
[00:32] <mrtrousers> and thats the problem. Retrieving current status forever, and whiteish/frozen buttons
[00:32] <mrtrousers> lordcirth, yes
[00:33] <mrtrousers> It will only work if you purge boinc-client boinc-manager
[00:33] <mrtrousers> Then you can reinstall, but will only work one time
[00:35] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, where do you see whether it's detected your GPU?
[00:35] <leafybasil> I added the iptable rule "iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3000 " which is similar to one I've run on other boxes, but it seems not to be working, any ideas why?
[00:35] <mrtrousers> i type boinc in teminal
[00:36] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, ah I see
[00:37] <mrtrousers> Do you get the gpu error?
[00:38] <mrtrousers> lorcirth, does it recognise the gpu or you get 512 error?
[00:39] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, 512, however, I am investigating whether running it as the correct user "boinc" makes a difference
[00:39] <mrtrousers> lordcirth, does it recognise the gpu or you get 512 error?
[00:39] <mrtrousers> ah ok, thanks lordcirth
[00:40] <mrtrousers> You see, there was something in there. Ive been like that for 24 hours lol.
[00:40] <mrtrousers> Asking boinc and ubuntu.
[00:40] <daily> Hi there, I'm on Ubuntu 14.04. Using PulseAudio, my mic produces a bad static noise regardless of input volume. This doesn't occur when bypassing pulseaudio using arecord. I've changed the default rate PulseAudio uses, to no avail. Any help is appreciated.
[00:42] <mrtrousers> lordcirth my workaround is install boinc from berkeley page http://boinc.berkeley.edu/
[00:43] <mrtrousers> But then it lacks libwxgtk2.8 lordcirth
[00:43] <mrtrousers> squinty did you find a workaround?
[00:44] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, hey, so boinc (started properly by the package) keeps a log in /var/log/boinc
[00:44] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, and in there, it says it detected my GPU
[00:45] <squinty> mrtrousers,  first time I ran boinc from commandline got "dir_open: Could not open directory 'slots' from '/home/squinty"  made the directory "slots" and then started the gui again....controls seem responsive now.
[00:45] <mrtrousers> ok, so if i mkdir slots, the gui will restart fine?
[00:45] <mrtrousers> squinty
[00:46] <squinty> mrtrousers, well it worked here so might want to give it a try
[00:48] <mrtrousers> How did you start the gui squinty?
[00:48] <squinty> mrtrousers, via the dash
[00:49] <mrtrousers> dash? you mean the search your computer? Was the gui responsive straight away or it took a long time?
[00:50] <mrtrousers> was boinc working on the terminal when you opened boinc manager? squinty
[00:50] <squinty> mrtrousers,  yes   popped up right away and connected to server(s)
[00:50] <lordcirth> I am launching from KDE menu and it's instant
[00:51] <asad_> whenever I connect my headphone to my laptop's jack, i hear very a loud buzzing sound
[00:51] <asad_> this started today
[00:51] <asad_> what could be the problem?
[00:51] <squinty> mrtrousers,  in terminal when starting "GUI RPC bind to port 31416 failed: 98" and it exited.  starting from the gui seems to be no problems
[00:51] <lordcirth> asad_, did you do updates or change anything else in software?
[00:51] <mrtrousers> Ok i  created slots dir, and now i launch boinc manager and still doesent work.
[00:51] <squinty> asad_, check to see what level your input mike is set at
[00:51] <asad_> lordcirth: No I didn't do anything. I even reinstalled Ubuntu. Same problem.
[00:52] <lordcirth> asad_, then 95% it's hardware.
[00:52] <asad_> lordcirth: you mean my headphones?
[00:52] <lordcirth> asad_, or laptop jack, or soundcard, or cable... if reinstalling the OS doesn't fix it, it's not software
[00:53] <lordcirth> asad_, well, did you do updates when reinstalling?  Could be a regression I suppose
[00:53] <mrtrousers> lorcirth what you mean from the kde menu?
[00:53] <asad_> lordcirth: how could something suddenly stop working though? it was perfectly fine
[00:54] <mrtrousers> squinty you thing is creating the slots dir that solved it? Can you close and open again?
[00:54] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, I am running KDE.  I launched it from the K menu in the bottom left.  Functionally the same as Dash
[00:54] <lordcirth> asad_, because things break?  Unlike software, hardware wears out.
[00:54] <asad_> lordcirth: all my hardware is new.
[00:55] <squinty> mrtrousers, here just adding the slots directory and then starting the gui manager, project commands started working
[00:55] <asad_> lordcirth: do you suggest trying an older version of ubuntu? maybe 14.04?
[00:55] <asad_> lordcirth: im on 16.04.
[00:55] <mrtrousers> squinty you have 16.04?
[00:55] <lordcirth> asad_, it's worth a shot I suppose.  Don't bother installing it, just livecd
[00:55] <squinty> mrtrousers,  yes and up to date
[00:55] <mrtrousers> squinty slots directory was created in home/squinty/?
[00:55] <squinty> mrtrousers, yes
[00:56] <asad_> lordcirth: ill give it a try. lets see what happens.
[00:56] <mrtrousers> then why mine is not working?
[00:56] <squinty> mrtrousers,  heh  no idea off hand. :-)
[00:57] <squinty> mrtrousers,  might want to check /remove the contents from the hidden boinc directory ~/home/mrtrousers  for example and then restarting.
[00:58] <transhuman> hi got a problem with 4.4 kernel wont boot get flash of purple screen with No UBUNTU on it and then turns black and never boots installed 4.6 kernel and it works fine, cant figure it out. Unfortunately vbox wont work with 4.6 kernel. anyone able to help
[00:59] <mrtrousers> Still not working, makes no sense, as i have gone through the same process as squinty
[00:59] <lordcirth> transhuman, this happened when you updated from 4.3?
[00:59] <transhuman> yes when I updated from 15.04
[01:00] <squinty> mrtrousers,  /var/log/boinc.log   might want to check it for error messages
[01:00] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, start boinc with systemctl first, btw
[01:00] <transhuman> lordcirth from 4.4.0-34 or 4.4.0-31 not sure which
[01:01] <francis> hello guys
[01:01] <francis> i need help here
[01:01] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, what GPU?
[01:01] <lordcirth> !ask | francis
[01:01] <francis> i just got a mifi surfline  4g router
[01:02] <mrtrousers> 740m
[01:02] <mrtrousers> 740 m
[01:02] <mrtrousers> lordcirth
[01:02] <francis> i know these guys are out there generating unlock codes to unlock this device but i want to know tonight how they go about it.
[01:02] <squinty> mrtrousers, using unity here btw
[01:02] <lordcirth> transhuman, what GPU?
[01:02] <transhuman> thinking of trying AMD built into cpu
[01:02] <transhuman> forget what that type is called
[01:02] <mrtrousers> squinty aparently log its ok, like i didnt leave it enough time, but if i leave it i know it will stay forever frozen.
[01:03] <lordcirth> transhuman, APU
[01:03] <mrtrousers> squinty what you mean unity?
[01:03] <squinty> !ot | francis
[01:03] <francis> come someone help me out please
[01:03] <lordcirth> transhuman, what APU model?
[01:03] <transhuman> radeon R5 Graphics
[01:03] <clearcut__> is there any book that helped you focus your work/programming habits, made you consistent, made you get the job done, made you more pragmatic, more smart about how you work, improved your worflow, helped you utilize your time better?
[01:03] <francis> ok sorry
[01:03] <squinty> mrtrousers,  default desktop for ubuntu.
[01:03] <lordcirth> !ot | clearcut__
[01:04] <mrtrousers> squinty isnt it gnome?
[01:04] <mrtrousers> squinty lordcirth http://pastebin.com/hCH0MRvf
[01:04] <squinty> mrtrousers, on top of gnome
[01:04] <mrtrousers> squinty i think i have unity to, it comes by default right
[01:05] <squinty> mrtrousers,  yes
[01:05] <transhuman> lordcirth, its built into the cpu which is probably the source of the problem (its a new tech)
[01:05] <transhuman> 4.6 doesnt have the problem but it has the vbox problem...I cant win
[01:06] <dan> hello
[01:06] <squinty> mrtrousers, 07-Aug-2016 02:27:43 [---] This computer is not attached to any projects   in your paste.  Is Project Commands active now?
[01:07] <mrtrousers> squinty no
[01:07] <lordcirth> transhuman, yes that's the idea, could you tell me your APU model please?  "lscpu | grep Model"
[01:07] <daily> Hi there, I'm on Ubuntu 14.04. Using PulseAudio, my mic produces a bad static noise regardless of input volume. This doesn't occur when bypassing pulseaudio using arecord. I've changed the default rate PulseAudio uses, to no avail. Any help is appreciated.
[01:07] <transhuman> model 48 AMD A6-7400K Radeon R5, 6 Compute Cores 2C+4G
[01:09] <lordcirth> transhuman, have you tried troubleshooting with nomodeset?
[01:10] <transhuman> wouldnt that affect both kernels?
[01:10] <lordcirth> transhuman, it might workaround a problem with a certain driver version?  It's worth a shot
[01:11] <transhuman> it wont even boot I dont think into recovery mode if I remember right (but that was last week) so come to think of it I am not sure its the video..is there a way to be sure
[01:11] <transhuman> no problem i will try got a kb on using that?
[01:11] <squinty> mrtrousers,  fwiw, here is my boinc.log output   might give you a clue as to what's happening at your end   http://paste.ubuntu.com/22521007/
[01:12] <squinty> mrtrousers, have you updated since installing?   sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade  if not
[01:13] <mrtrousers> lets try again
[01:13] <lordcirth> transhuman, well, if you can ping it when the screen is black, then it's booted at least partially
[01:13] <mrtrousers> squinty
[01:14] <transhuman> ah I do that on the kernel command line how do I make it perminent with grub2
[01:14] <squinty> mrtrousers,  got to go and put dinner on  :-(  will be back if I get a chance
[01:14] <mrtrousers> what was it update and?
[01:14] <transhuman> oh I see, i didnt try that
[01:14] <mrtrousers> upgrade i guess
[01:15] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, full-upgrade , it's right there in scrollback
[01:15] <mrtrousers> scrollback?
[01:15] <mrtrousers> A no, my irc got closed
[01:15] <mrtrousers> so i lost it
[01:16] <mrtrousers> upgrade or full-upgrade command not found lordcirth
[01:17] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, 'apt update && apt full-upgrade' as he said
[01:17] <lordcirth> All package management is done through apt (or the old apt-get)
[01:18] <kai> interesting apt seems weird to type, I always put the apt-get lol
[01:19] <lordcirth> kai, yeah me too for like 2 weeks
[01:19] <transhuman> ok lordcirth thanks for the help rebooting now to see if its fixed updated grub.cfg and ran update-grub
[01:19] <transhuman> I think thats all i have to do after putting nomodeset in cfg
[01:19] <transhuman> can you confirm
[01:19] <lordcirth> transhuman, well, I meant do it temporarily on boot, but that works too
[01:20] <transhuman> I am hoping your right. skip a second reboot since nomodeset was on the running kernel but not on 4.4
[01:20] <transhuman> rebooting
[01:22] <iandawg> Hey guys, I'm trying to do a clean install of Ubuntu v16 on my laptop (wipe all internal drive contents and install only Ubuntu OS). I've followed the steps to use Rufus USB Installer, created the install media on my Lexar thumbdrive, ran the install using option "Erase all data and install..." But I can't boot from my internal HDD
[01:23] <kai> checked bios settings? strange, took out usb? I'm kinda a noob so yeah I might only have a few ideas
[01:23] <internut> iandawg: So, you saw it got all the way through the install and then reboot?
[01:23] <iandawg> Yes
[01:23] <iandawg> It gave some message that I can continue in "try mode" but I would need to "restart now"
[01:23] <iandawg> (clicked restart now)
[01:24] <internut> I just installed 30 minutes ago and I never saw any "try mode". Sounds like it had a problem with your install and it suggested a recovery option.
[01:24] <internut> I don't think your install completed successfully.
[01:25] <iandawg> The message said the install was successful (I paraphrase the dialog)
[01:25] <iandawg> I'm basically running Ubuntu, now, directly from the USB drive.
[01:25] <lordcirth> iandawg, internut, at the end of the install, it says you can continue to Try Ubuntu (live) or reboot to use the install.  It's normal
[01:26] <internut> oh okay... I didn't do the live mode, I just went straight into install from my USB bootloader
[01:26] <iandawg> lordcirth : yes.
[01:26] <lordcirth> iandawg, and if you don't have the USB in there, nothing boots?
[01:26] <iandawg> That's right
[01:26] <iandawg> my laptop shows a message "no boot media found"
[01:26] <lordcirth> iandawg, did you run the USB's self-check?
[01:26] <lordcirth> BIOS or UEFI?
[01:27] <iandawg> from the initial ubuntu USB boot options?
[01:27] <iandawg> I've tried both - but UEFI
[01:28] <lordcirth> iandawg, yes, when the grub bootloader loads, there's an option to verify the image.  It's a good thing to do even if it's rarely the problem
[01:28] <iandawg> I did run that check. returned "no errors"
[01:29] <lordcirth> iandawg, ok excellent
[01:31] <lordcirth> iandawg, try the top answer here on your liveUSB: http://askubuntu.com/questions/158321/how-can-i-get-grub-to-appear-after-installing-ubuntu-with-windows-7-using-a-live
[01:31] <internut> Of course, Ubuntu created a huge swap partition on my NVMe drive. Gonna move that sucker to a slower drive.
[01:32] <codingboy> leel
[01:32] <codingboy> hi?
[01:32] <iandawg> lordcirth: even though I ONLY want Ubuntu (not Win7 side-by-side)?
[01:33] <lordcirth> iandawg, yes, it's a general solution
[01:34] <lordcirth> internut, use manual partitioning if you have requirements like that :)  Auto is for single-drive standard installs.
[01:35] <elspru> hi, I'm trying to install a custom kernel, but update-initramfs says that it is "ignoring old or unused kernel"
[01:35] <elspru> should I be worried about that?
[01:35] <elspru> it says that about the kernel I'm installing, and says latest is blank
[01:35] <lordcirth> elspru, well, seeing as your initramfs should match your kernel, yes, that's a problem
[01:36] <elspru> so how do I fix it?

[01:44] <elspru> old kernel, and no modules
[01:44] <elspru> no x-server, just console, am using irssi

[01:45] <transhuman> stupid me tried to save money buying a gpu regretting it now
[01:45] <elspru> I recompiled a new kernel, which should work, but it's not being understood by update-initramfs
[01:45] <transhuman> what error is it giving you/
[01:46] <lordcirth> elspru, did you follow this guide? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[01:46] <elspru> it is telling me that it is ignoring the old or unknown kernel (the one I compiled) and saying latest is blank
[01:47] <transhuman> with my problem i dont get is that I can run it on a newer kernel so its not like there is a interfering module loading or something
[01:47] <kai> If anyone could help with a no sound related issue Much would be appreciated. :)

[01:54] <mrtrousers> hello
[01:55] <elspru> transhuman: I think it migth make most sense to backup your work to an external hard drive or usb/sd, then install a fresh version.
[01:55] <elspru> that's what I'm planning if I don't manage to get it working by the end of the day
[01:55]  * elspru already has backups on several other computers

[02:11] <devan> I have checked permissions on all music folders and I have RWX access as user on all
[02:12] <daily> Hi there, I'm on Ubuntu 14.04. Using PulseAudio, my mic produces a bad static noise regardless of input volume. This doesn't occur when bypassing pulseaudio using arecord. I've changed the default rate PulseAudio uses, to no avail. Any help is appreciated.
[02:14] <logy> Hi everyone, I just want to ask are there any versions of gedit, leafpad or mousepad for windows?
[02:15] <lordcirth> logy, a quick search says yes for gedit: https://blogs.gnome.org/nacho/2014/07/30/gedit-3-for-windows/
[02:15] <lordcirth> However there's probably a newer version than that
[02:16] <iandawg> lordcirth: I'm back... my computer froze while running that second command you gave me. Can you send me those linnks, again?
[02:16] <lordcirth> logy, 2016: http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/GNOME/binaries/win64/gedit/
[02:16] <logy> thank you lordcirth i searched for a leightweight text editor thats a bit better than notepad, thank you

[02:21] <kai> Can anyone help me with a no sound issue? Think it might be related to this dmesg output "snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1b.0: no codecs found!" thanks
[02:23] <lordcirth> kai, did you try installing some codecs?
[02:30] <bassam_> Hi. I make a change to my /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d file and now xfce won't start anymore. Can someone help?
[02:30] <lordcirth> bassam_, undo the change?
[02:31] <bassam_> lord4163_, the problem is is that I use crouton(for chromeboxes) and now I am unable to start xfce
[02:31] <bassam_> lord4163_, therefore I can't access the file
[02:31] <lordcirth> bassam_, wrong username autocomplete.  You can't get a command line?
[02:32] <bassam_> lordcirth, sorry. I'm at the command line in chromebox but I cannot edit 50-synaptics.conf file which is located in the directory i mentioned
[02:33] <lordcirth> bassam_, why not?
[02:33] <bassam_> lordcirth, well, when I try to get into the directory xorg.conf.d from the shell in chromebox, it says it doesn't exist
[02:34] <bassam_> lordcirth, i can get to X11 but the only directory there is xkb
[02:34] <lordcirth> bassam_, well, you probably have to start crouton or whatever to get into the Ubuntu install.  You're in ChromeOS.
[02:35] <bassam_> lordcirth, it gives me an error and ubuntu xfce doesn't start :/
[02:35] <AciD`> hey, I'm currently updating my 16.04 ubuntu computer, but somehow the upgrade freeze on grub-pc update just after the 'Found memtest86+ image : /boot/memtest86+.bin' line. Additionally, I can ls /boot, but cannot `df` without having that cmd freeze too. Is that bad doctor?
[02:36] <AciD`> also; I seeing a warning about the sector 32 being already used by a 'flexnet' program
[02:36] <Jordan_U> bassam_: I'm guessing crouton uses a chroot, so you just need to find out where the Ubuntu root directory is stored.
[02:37] <bassam_> Jordan_U, yes i believe it does.  I am creating a symlink, I want the files to actually be stored in dir called store so I would "ln -s original/dir /path/to/store" correct?
[02:37] <Codenomics> or other way around?
[02:38] <AciD`> Codenomics > try it, it won't owerwrite anything
[02:38] <Codenomics> try it?
[02:38] <Jordan_U> AciD`: df freezing is not a good sign. The warning about flexnet won't hurt you, it just means that you installed some software in Windows from a company that cares more about enforcing DRM than the well-being of its users (probably Adobe Photoshop).
[02:39] <bassam_> Jordan_U, oh i think I found it, let me see if i can make a change
[02:39] <Codenomics> AciD`: I can try it... but I wanted to make sure that I had it right before I tried it
[02:40] <AciD`> Jordan_U > bummer, I haven't booted under windows for years now :/
[02:40] <Jordan_U> AciD`: dmesg | pastebinit
[02:40] <bassam_> Success!! thanks guys
[02:41] <Jordan_U> AciD`: The flexnet DRM bits stay on your drive until you explicitly remove them.
[02:41] <AciD`> Jordan_U > well, I just typed `reboot` as root, but it seems to no go very far :/
[02:42] <mrtrousers> Hello
[02:42] <mrtrousers> squinty
[02:42] <mrtrousers> lordcirth
[02:42] <lordcirth> mrtrousers, hi
[02:42] <mrtrousers> i got the deb package and installed.. http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/amd64/libwxgtk2.8-0/download
[02:43] <mrtrousers> why im still getting the same error:
[02:43] <mrtrousers> error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk2u_html-2.8.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:43] <Bashing-om> Codfection: Basically, think of it like this: ln -s 'location to link to' 'name of symlink' . See: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2316613 for a great explanation .
[02:43] <AciD`> well, weird
[02:44] <AciD`> a reboot (hard reset in fact) solved the df -h problem Jordan_U
[02:44] <AciD`> now, to remove that flexnet malware..
[02:44] <AciD`> :)
[02:47] <mrtrousers> why installing the deb package wont fix the error?
[02:48] <mrtrousers> i got the deb package and installed.. http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/amd64/libwxgtk2.8-0/download
[02:48] <mrtrousers> error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk2u_html-2.8.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:48] <mrtrousers> Help!
[02:48] <Bashing-om> !info boinc
[02:49] <mrtrousers> THis version doesnt work, its buggy and it sucks
[02:49] <Bashing-om> mrtrousers: Compare ^ to ' dpkg -l boinc '. Maybe you have an old version of boinc installed ??
[02:50] <mrtrousers> no its good
[02:51] <Bashing-om> !find libwx_gtk2u_html-2.8.so.0
[02:51] <Bashing-om> !find libwx_gtk2u_html-2.8.so.0 trusty

[02:55] <pkuyken> Is there a way to configure the menu bar in Unity to show the entire application name, rather than chop it off?
[02:58] <Jordan_U> AciD`: Ok. Be sure to run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" then "sudo apt full-upgrade" to be sure all pending upgrade stuffs completed.
[02:58] <Bashing-om> mrtrousers: Required ! see : ' apt show libwxgtk2.8-0 ' output .
[03:00] <Fr_Dae> +1 Jordan_U
[03:00] <Fr_Dae> fuck apt-get, => juste apt with color is cool =)
[03:01] <lordcirth> !language | Fr_Dae
[03:02] <Fr_Dae> ok ok sorry
[03:03] <Bashing-om> mrtrousers: Humm .. to this time I can not find a libwxgtkXXXX in xenial .
[03:04] <kanar1an> hello
[03:05] <kanar1an> how can i find channel list ?
[03:06] <AciD`> Jordan_U -> just curious, is there a difference between `apt full-upgrade` and `apt-get dist-upgrade`?
[03:09] <Bashing-om> mrtrousers: This one the one that we need ' ls -al /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libwx_gtk2u_html-3.0.so.0 ' ? per : http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=libwx_gtk2u_html&mode=filename&suite=xenial&arch=any .
[03:12] <Jordan_U> AciD`: Possibly a subtle difference but I think the results of either will be exactly identical 99% of the time.
[03:12] <AciD`> ok
[03:15] <kurowa> hello
[03:15] <phiona> on 16.04, why does an insstall of inkscape also remove grub-customizer?  if i remove grub-customizer, will it now affect  grub?
[03:16] <Jordan_U> AciD`: apt is a new front end, and the "dist-upgrade" name is historical and somewhat confusing so since they didn't need to worry about backwards compatability they changed it :)
[03:16] <AciD`> Jordan_U -> well in that case I guess that means I'm old ;)
[03:17] <AciD`> also, for info, I found a very clear explanation on how to remove that flexnet malware : https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1661254
[03:17] <kurowa> so. in 16.04, is there a way to uninstall everything and return ubuntu to the state where it is freshly installed?
[03:19] <TheFly> Hey ya'll.  I've a question. Instead of a bootable CD or USB, can I make an external HDD bootable?  Just burn the iso to the USB drive it's connected to, right?
[03:20] <Jordan_U> kurowa: You can re-install preserving /home (which will preserve the settings of any programs run as your user) or re-install just preserving your documents / media (the latter you would have to do manually).
[03:20] <TheFly> Basically, my files are stuck on a drive.  Testdisk can take them off but only the drive you boot up on.  500gb is too big for a USB drive.  But if I boot from an external HDD, I can copy right on to that
[03:21] <Jordan_U> TheFly: A hard drive is a hard drive for the purposes of booting. (Also, "burning" is a term that only applies to optical media like DVDs).
[03:22] <kurowa> Jordan_U: if I saved document on another partition, do I need to backup? I want to return it to freshly installed state, removing all programs and config.
[03:22] <TheFly> Jordan_U:  Okay, very well.  Nonetheless, is what I'm hypothesizing correct?
[03:22] <kurowa> The second one.
[03:22] <kurowa> yes
[03:23] <TheFly> kurowa talking to me?
[03:23] <TheFly> no nm, you're not
[03:23] <Jordan_U> kurowa: Yes and no. You don't "need" to backup, but no matter what you're doing you should always have backups of any important files.
[03:23] <kurowa> I'm dual booting, so I made partition for access to windows too.
[03:23] <kurowa> Jordan_U
[03:23] <kurowa> TheFly: Sorry.
[03:24] <TheFly> How did you message me and make your text red?
[03:24] <Jordan_U> TheFly: I don't understand the limitation you're talking about. Testdisk should have no problem recovering files from a drive it wasn't booted from; in fact it's probably the more common case.
[03:24] <Jordan_U> TheFly: By including your nick at the start of my message.
[03:25] <JeffATL> I am about to gift a freshly-installed ubuntu machine to a woman whose autistic son starts an online class on Monday. Does anyone know if a USB headset will plug in and Just Work (tm)? I don't have one to test with.
[03:25] <Jordan_U> !tab | To make highlighting people more convenient:
[03:25] <TheFly> Jordan_U when I press left key in in Testdisk to go all the way... I can't find the external drives attached to my PC
[03:26] <TheFly> Jordan_U I can only browse within the USB in which I booted into Ubuntu.
[03:27] <Jordan_U> JeffATL: I think it most likely will, but I don't have a lot of personal experience (I have used a USB headset with my Ubuntu machine, and I don't remember it being a hassle).
[03:27] <JeffATL> Jordan_U: thank you!
[03:27] <Jordan_U> TheFly: Look in /media/
[03:27] <phiona> on 16.04, why does an insstall of inkscape also remove grub-customizer?  if i remove grub-customizer, will it now affect  grub?
[03:27] <TheFly> Jordan_U Ok thanks!
[03:27] <kurowa> Jordan_U. I have backup. then
[03:28] <kurowa> Jordan_U: I have backup. then?
[03:28] <Jordan_U> phiona: How did you install grub-customizer?
[03:28] <Jordan_U> kurowa: Re-install, then copy / mount / symlink (whatever you want to do) your data where you want it.
[03:30] <phiona> Jordan_U: i dont remember. i think  with synaptic.
[03:31] <Jordan_U> phiona: It's not available in the default repositories.
[03:31] <lordcirth> JeffATL, look up the model + 'linux' or 'ubuntu'
[03:31] <Jordan_U> Sorry, I have to leave.
[03:31] <lordcirth> Or do you not know the model?
[03:33] <daily> Hi there, I'm on Ubuntu 14.04. Using PulseAudio, my mic produces a bad static noise regardless of input volume. This doesn't occur when bypassing pulseaudio using arecord. I've changed the default rate PulseAudio uses, to no avail. Any help is appreciated.
[03:34] <phiona> Jordan_U: ok. so iet was probably installed with terminal.
[03:35] <JeffATL> lordcirth: i'm texting to ask
[03:36] <phiona> Jordan_U: ok. so it was probably installed with terminal.
[03:41] <TheFly> Jordan_U: Hey man thanks for that!
[03:42] <TheFly> Jordan_U:  Files are currently copying.  I feel like Tom Hanks AFTER the storm in castaway.  I'm coming home.....
[03:42] <CoolBreeze227> is there a libgcrypt20 library of files that can file downloaded together
[03:42] <CoolBreeze227> I downloaded one file it said i needed and they when i tried to run it it said i need another one
[03:43] <CoolBreeze227> i thought i might be missing some files maybe

[03:43] <TheFly> lol
[03:43] <TheFly> how to do I to a different channel?
[03:43] <dax> TheFly: /join #channelname
[03:43] <TheFly> THANKS dax!
[04:04] <sarek> I want a backup solution thats as close to time machine as possible. Something where i dont have to restore the whole thing, but can actually browse files by date and pick and choose. Anything like that exist?
[04:05] <kai> to the new monitor
[04:13] <MelRay> Just installed 16.04 at first Unity displayed a shorcuts page. How do I bring it back up?
[04:17] <phiona> Jordan_U: ok. so it was probably installed with terminal.
[04:20] <MelRay> Holding down the super key (windows key) does nothing to bring up the keyboard shortcuts display?
[04:27] <pfifo> Hey everyone :)
[04:28] <pfifo> I am trying to use grep just like i have a bajillion times in the past, but after updating to 16.04 it is now tacking extra data onto its output 'Binary file (standard input) matches' what is going on, it never did this before?
[04:28] <sponix> pfifo: Did you remember the --sucks=off flag ?
[04:30] <pfifo> sponix: I have never done that in the past, if such a directive was being used it was an alias in my bashrc

[05:49] <panpan> Hello, im using a vnc service and sometimes it crashes, i try to restart and kill the service but i get this error "net:1 is taken because of /tmp/.X1-lock"
[05:51] <Xe> i don't like how the boot repair livedisk doesn't contain EFI booting support
[05:51] <cfhowlett> Xe,  except it does
[05:52] <Xe> cfhowlett: what is the correct way to make an EFI friendly boot disk from a mac?
[05:52] <cfhowlett> Xe, never done it for a mac. see the wiki.
[05:52] <cfhowlett> !mac
[05:53] <Xe> no i mean
[05:53] <Xe> i dd'd the image over to the USB drive
[05:53] <Xe> and the machine is not booting off of it
[05:53] <Xe> the machine in question is a surface pro 3, i am writing an image via my mac
[05:54] <Xe> should i dd it to the raw device or just a partition on it?
[05:55] <cfhowlett> haven't installed on a Surface Pro either. please see: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=surface+pro+ubuntu+install&t=canonical&ia=web
[05:56] <Xe> yes, the model of the computer is largely irellevant for most purposes. I just want to fix efi.
[05:59] <reisio> Xe: what's the actual error?
[05:59] <Xe> reisio: the error is that the machine is not booting
[05:59] <Xe> that is the crux of the debug information the surface pro 3 machine gives
[05:59] <Xe> the efi system partition has way too little data in it
[05:59] <cfhowlett> can't be much more non-informative than that ...
[06:00] <reisio> Xe: what happens when it boots up?
[06:00] <Xe> leading me to believe that the kernel and grub is not installed there
[06:00] <reisio> how far does it get
[06:00] <Xe> reisio: it dumps you to the bios boot screen unless you boot it off of an ubuntu 16.04 drive. I'm in a chicken and egg scenario because i need to install a custom kernel package but in order to do that i need to boot the system
[06:01] <reisio> Xe: drive?
[06:01] <reisio> TMI anyway
[06:01] <reisio> you're saying your image on a usb stick does not boot at all?
[06:01] <reisio> the bios/uefi doesn't accept it as a thing to boot from?
[06:01] <Xe> it doesn't boot if it's the boot repair CD
[06:02] <Xe> if it's fedora or ubuntu, works fine
[06:02] <reisio> "works fine" doesn't sound like a problem to me
[06:02] <Xe> yes but
[06:02] <Xe> then when you install it to the system
[06:02] <Xe> the system does not boot into ubuntu
[06:02] <Xe> when you reboot it that is
[06:02] <reisio> what's it boot to?
[06:02] <Xe> the bios settings screen because it cannot find an OS
[06:03] <reisio> does it say "can't find an os"?
[06:03] <Xe> no
[06:03] <reisio> what does it say?
[06:03] <Xe> it gives no error message, it just doesn't work
[06:03] <Xe> that is how the surface pro 3 hardware is :/
[06:04] <reisio> so you can boot the install media
[06:04] <Xe> ...okay
[06:05] <reisio> and you can chroot into your installation that's on the internal storage?
[06:05] <Xe> using unetbootin worked
[06:05] <Xe> ...and of course the keyboard doesn't work in the live session
[06:09] <Xe> "please enable a repository containing the [linux-generic] packages in the software sources of ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (sda2). Then try again."
[06:11] <Xe> "failed to run /bin/bash"
[06:11] <Xe> i think this install is boned...
[06:12] <reisio> Xe: that from a chrooting attempt?
[06:13] <Xe> reisio: yeah
[06:13] <Xe> i am just gonna reinstall
[06:14] <Xe> somehow the ubuntu installer installed a system without core packages
[06:15] <Xe> like coreutils and bash
[06:15] <ilithios>  /quit
[06:31] <acer> how do you switch between apps
[06:31] <acer> using alt + tab
[06:31] <acer> ?
[06:31] <acer> whats the keyboard shortcut
[06:31] <reisio> acer: yes, alt+tab
[06:32] <acer> because the system monitor is saying theres 2 gedits running thats using a ton of memory
[06:32] <acer> and i can't switch to it
[06:33] <reisio> killall gedit
[06:34] <Xe> reisio: yeah, even doing a reinstall doesn't get it working
[06:34] <Xe> sigh
[06:34] <reisio> not sure what made you think doing the same thing over again would produce a different result
[06:34] <reisio> you dual booting?
[06:35] <Xe> i made the USB via a different means (unetbootin vs dd)
[06:37] <noobuntu> Are there linux apps that can do what https://www.desmos.com/calculator does?

[06:42] <reisio> there are entire emulators of physical graphing calculators, even

[07:40] <ilithios> hello again. I updgraded to Ubuntu 16,04 but still can't log in to my desktop. But since the upgrade now it flashes a screen with a whole bunch of "clearing inode" messages indtead of just flashing the screen at me. but still end up back at the login prompt. any ideas?
[07:41] <baizon> ilithios: try creating a new user
[07:42] <ilithios> ok will try that
[07:42] <OerHeks> tons of upgrade issues lately: boot, hold shift, go into recovery (alt F1 make RW), and login, perform: sudo dpkg --configure -a ### run update -f, all should be fine now
[07:45] <ilithios> OerHeks: it should be noted that this is not a new issue after upgrade. It's the same issue that existed before th eupgrade but the upgrade didn't fix it. the only difference now is that it shows a bunch of messages about "clearing inode" instead of doing nothing at all
[07:46] <lotuspsychje> my unity-greeter got stuck on a previous picture and doesnt wanna load my current wallpaper on 16.04, any clues to reset stuff? been messing with dconf-editor but no luck
[07:46] <cfhowlett> ilithios, relevant information!  please run df -i | pastebin
[07:48] <ilithios> pastebin: command not found
[07:48] <ilithios> is this something i need to install?
[07:48] <cfhowlett> ilithios, relevant information!  please run df -ih | nc termbin.com 9999
[07:49] <ilithios> http://termbin.com/su1h
[07:50] <cfhowlett> click on that ilithios
[07:50] <ilithios> well I can't click it, it's in a terminal window. I can go there with Lynx?
[07:51] <ilithios> I mean not window. it's in a terminal
[07:51] <cfhowlett> open your browser and go there
[07:56] <ilithios> Ok I have that up. It was sulh, not su1h. 1 and l look almost exactly the same in this terminal
[07:57] <cfhowlett> :)
[07:57] <cfhowlett> do it again and read the output
[07:59] <ilithios> output was the same both times. type it all here?
[07:59] <cfhowlett> no type the new URL here
[07:59] <cfhowlett> and it should NOT be the same!
[07:59] <ilithios> termbin.com/69u7
[08:00] <ilithios> hmm well i don't see any difference
[08:00] <ilithios> I mean the info on the page is the same. not the url
[08:00] <cfhowlett> ilithios, OK, well my theory was that your inodes were filling up your storage but that is clearly not th ecase
[08:01] <ilithios> hmm. ok. I am in a terminal on the same computer and it works just fine. just can't log in to the desktop
[08:02] <gebbione> will upgrading from 14 to 16 cause problems? ie. need to reconfigure stuff
[08:02] <gebbione> re-install etc
[08:03] <cfhowlett> gebbione, in most cases, no problems.  *most* cases
[08:04] <lotuspsychje> gebbione: make a backup just in case if you like

[08:59] <segmastar> Hello?
[08:59] <cfhowlett> !ask
[08:59] <lotuspsychje> segmastar: what can we do for you?
[09:00] <uebera||> !patience
[09:01] <segmastar> I install ubuntu 16.04LTS on my external hard drive but it can't boot.
[09:01] <segmastar> What should I do?
[09:01] <lotuspsychje> segmastar: your external hd is connected via usb?
[09:02] <segmastar> yep
[09:02] <segmastar> usb 3.0
[09:02] <lotuspsychje> segmastar: not very recommended as usb will bottleneck your ubuntu
[09:02] <segmastar> but I want to use it on public computer
[09:03] <Geom> i have installed using only 2gb ram. now, i will add another 6 to make it 8gb. do i just plug it in and its done, or do i need to edit something in ubuntu?
[09:03] <lotuspsychje> segmastar: you could use the liveusb?
[09:03] <segmastar> But can I install software while using live usb?
[09:03] <OerHeks> segmastar, be sure you have grub on that ext hdd too.
[09:04] <segmastar> I have install grub on it
[09:04] <segmastar> *installed
[09:04] <lotuspsychje> Geom: not needed, whats your swap space right now?
[09:05] <Geom> lotuspsychje:  that i have to check. what ever the dafult is
[09:05] <lotuspsychje> !swap | Geom have a look here
[09:06] <lotuspsychje> Geom: you can install preload aswell, will work nicely with your new ram
[09:06] <lotuspsychje> !info preload | Geom
[09:06] <Geom> checking.. thanks for the link and the info
[09:07] <lotuspsychje> segmastar: whats the reason you choose ubuntu for a public pc? what will you be doing?
[09:08] <uebera||> segmastar: To answer your question: yes, you can install SW using a live image (it will be placed in a separate container)
[09:08] <segmastar> Many things. Do Data analysis with octave
[09:09] <lotuspsychje> segmastar: the owner of the public agree with this? or perhaps lets you install ubuntu internal/permanently?
[09:15] <Vmong1> Hi Guys
[09:16] <lotuspsychje> Vmong1: what can we do for you?
[09:17] <Vmong1> Hey lotuspsychje, thanks for asking. I just pinged here so that i can contribute to the community along with you guys
[09:18] <Vmong1> Cheers
[09:18] <cfhowlett> !contribute | Vmong1
[09:18] <Vmong1> thanks ubottu, will check it out
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> Vmong1: anything specific you wanna contribute with?
[09:20] <Tobias92> Hey guys, I have enabled the debsums cronjob on my server, so I get emails about files with a mismatched md5sum. Since upgrading to Xenial, I keep getting mails about a mismatch for '/usr/share/doc/module-init-tools/changelog.Debian.gz'; it seems like the last line is being changed to refer to 'libkmod2' rather than 'module-init-tools' (probably by unattended upgrades). Has anyone got a hint on how to debug this?
[09:21] <lotuspsychje> Tobias92: perhaps the #ubuntu-server guys might seen that issue before?
[09:21] <Tobias92> lotuspsychje, ah thanks, I'll try asking there
[09:22] <Vmong1> Guys anyone know is there any active chatrooms for apache hive ? if so chatroom name plz
[09:22] <lotuspsychje> !alis | Vmong1
[09:22] <lotuspsychje> Vmong1: there's a general #httpd channel if you like
[09:24] <Vmong1> lotus, http channel are they discussing about apache hive ?
[09:25] <lotuspsychje> Vmong1: you could ask apache related issues i guess
[09:26] <Vmong1> oh is it.. lemme try there, thanks so much

[09:28] <Guest28806> Does anyone of you have suggestions which Ubuntu to install on an old laptop (Pentium M 1.5 Ghz, 1024 MB RAM, 40 GB HDD)?
[09:28] <cfhowlett> Guest28806, lubuntu or MAYBE xubuntu
[09:29] <cfhowlett> Guest28806, of course if you don't need a gui, that model would make a perfectly usable server
[09:29] <_peter_> sry guys
[09:29] <Guest28806> i see, thanks. I've been trying around for quite a time now, but most Distris I've tried to far, are too heavy for the system. ;)
[09:30] <cfhowlett> lubuntu is the lightest IRC
[09:42] <segmastar> Just tell me how,please
[09:43] <miharu> hello.

[09:46] <eswar> how to add apps shortcut in desktop
[09:46] <kvmmm> anyone know how to fix subtitles that look like this? ãîëëàíäñêèé
[09:47] <phiona> on 16.04, why does an insstall of inkscape also remove grub-customizer?  if i remove grub-customizer, will it now affect  grub?
[09:47] <cfhowlett> kvmmm, if you do not have the language packs installed, you will not get the correct subtitles
[09:48] <cfhowlett> phiona, test it for yourself: apt-get -s purge grub-customizer will SIMULATE the operation not execute
[09:48] <miharu> cfhowlett: thanks.
[09:48] <cfhowlett> happy2help! miharu
[09:48] <miharu> I'm learning to be an android developer though. Is this information sufficient for me?
[09:48] <kvmmm> thanks. cfhowlett how do I install language packs?
[09:49] <kvmmm> oh, actually I think I can figure that out
[09:49] <miharu> well, I've learned my lesson to not blindly install everything.
[09:51] <eswar> please me, how to add shortcut of the apps to desktop
[09:52] <phiona> how do we install inkscape without removing grub-costumizer?
[09:53] <OerHeks> eswar, just drag, http://i.imgur.com/8ND6ngv.gif
[09:53] <eswar> ok, thanks
[09:55] <emusic> join #linux
[10:01] <kvmmm> and is there a way to change the timing of the subtitles so it matches the audio?
[10:01] <kvmmm> in the default ubuntu video player. Or am I better off with VLC?
[10:02] <YankDownUnder> kvmmm: Your choice. Most prefer VLC...
[10:02] <kvmmm> but does the default player allow me to change subtitle timing?
[10:03] <YankDownUnder> kvmmm: Most media players do...just a matter of reading the dox
[10:03] <phiona> how do we install inkscape without removing grub-costumizer?
[10:03] <YankDownUnder> phiona: Are you doing this through the normal repos?
[10:04] <cristian_c> hello
[10:04] <cristian_c> I'm experiencing a strange issue with 16.04
[10:04] <phiona> YankDownUnder:  with inkscape., yes.
[10:05] <kvmmm> ok, thanks!
[10:05] <cristian_c> now, I'm always getting failed to stsrt login service loop in the boot log
[10:05] <cristian_c> *start
[10:05] <YankDownUnder> phiona: And what is telling you to remove "grub-customiser"?
[10:05] <cristian_c> start and stop login service messages
[10:06] <cristian_c> along start and stop network manager and lightdm similar messages
[10:06] <phiona> YankDownUnder: synaptic
[10:06] <ducasse> phiona: grub-customizers is not in the standard repos, that's why you're getting conflicts - bad packaging.
[10:06] <cristian_c> in an infijite loop
[10:06] <cristian_c> *infinite
[10:06] <cristian_c> so, I can never reach the login screen
[10:07] <mirak> hi
[10:07] <cristian_c> I read also 'see systemctl status systemd-logind.service' and similar messages for network manager and lightdm services
[10:07] <mirak> how do i extract files from duplicity archive in command line ?
[10:08] <cristian_c> What method coukd I following to figure out what goes wrong?
[10:08] <cristian_c> Any ideas?
[10:08] <phiona> ducasse: so, how do we install inkscape without removing grub-costumizer?
[10:08] <cristian_c> *could
[10:09] <ducasse> phiona: if the packages conflict, you probably can't. i would install inkscape and try to find a package of grub-customizer that doesn't have the conflict. or build one yourself.
[10:10] <cristian_c> mirak: duplicity?
[10:10] <mirak> cristian_c: duplicity
[10:10] <muddyfuns> Good day / good afternoon / good evening
[10:10] <OerHeks> phiona, file a bug to the grub customizer maintainer, i see no simular bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/grub-customizer
[10:11] <cristian_c> mirak: what is this?
[10:11] <cristian_c> ah, ok
[10:11] <cristian_c> !info duplicity
[10:12] <OerHeks> tons of options, mirak >> http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man1/duplicity.1.html
[10:13] <mirak> OerHeks: I know that, but it complains it can't find files in ~/.cache/duplicity, so I don't know how you will restore in case of a complete system crash .
[10:14] <jatt> j
[10:15] <OerHeks> mirak, so you don't want to know howto get files from your backup? as you know that?
[10:15] <phiona> ducasse: or install inkscape now then install grub costumizer after. is that what youre saying?? :)
[10:16] <ducasse> phiona: that will most likely remove inkscape again.
[10:17] <mirak> OerHeks: what makes you think I  don't want that ?
[10:18] <owen>  hello network manager is not working with my evdo connection zte 8700 before it was connecting.Now it is connecting through windows xp only using driver cd
[10:18] <OerHeks> mirak, as you don't seem to like the manual page, but come up with a different question. do we need to know more before starting to find out your issue?
[10:19] <mirak> OerHeks: what makes you think I don't already know the man page ?
[10:19] <mirak> OerHeks: ok haha, I asked more detailed somewhere else
[10:19] <OerHeks> yeah, return the problem to me
[10:20] <OerHeks> you asked, not me mirak .
[10:20] <mirak> OerHeks: in #duplicity. so I did the right command already, but it complains that it can't find a file in ~/.cache/duplicity  which makes we wonder how you can restore files
[10:21] <mirak> OerHeks: I mean restore files on a different system
[10:22] <OerHeks> did you browse and see if it is actually there? also on the source machine or backupmedia?
[10:25] <OerHeks> mirak,  did duplicity find ANY file at all?
[10:25] <mirak> OerHeks: the question is why would I need something in there . Because if you archive on a drive, you want to be able to recover the files even if the computer that hosted the original files burns.
[10:26] <mirak> So i don't understand what is the issue
[10:26] <mirak> fortunely for me I am not in that situation
[10:26] <OerHeks> if it does not find any file, it could be an owner issue of the folder, or the backupfiles
[10:27] <mirak> backup files are on a ntfs drive
[10:27] <mirak> about owner ok, maybe I should try as root
[10:27] <OerHeks> hmm ntfs does not preserve rightmanagment
[10:28] <mirak> OerHeks: but it was the issue, that's weird, it works as root, just to list the files
[10:28] <mirak> Maybe yeah, I saved as root and the .cache folder was owned by root, that certainly the issue
[10:28] <OerHeks> jups, chown the to $USER:$USER ( your user)
[10:28] <mirak> OerHeks: I think also I can select another patt with --archive-dir option
[10:29] <mirak> I just want to be sure I can do what I want from another system, but that would be dumb not to be able to
[10:29] <OerHeks> i think you got the tail of your issue now
[10:30] <mirak> yes. however the error message could be more clear
[10:31] <cristian_c> lol
[10:34] <ElectroMotive> so parole media player is broken on ubuntu studio
[10:35] <ElectroMotive> whenever I try to replay something after its playedd once it will not play it
[10:35] <cristian_c> could it be a good idea reconfiguring the services?
[10:35] <cristian_c> And what between them?
[10:36] <cristian_c> *what ones
[10:36] <cristian_c> *packages related to the services
[10:37] <cristian_c> ElectroMotive: only parole?
[10:37] <ElectroMotive> well i have not tried any others yet
[10:37] <ElectroMotive> not that i dont know there are better ones
[10:38] <ElectroMotive> i just want this one to work
[10:38] <cristian_c> ElectroMotive: make a test with other players
[10:38] <ElectroMotive> i dont see why this one is the default though
[10:39] <ElectroMotive> but yeah i will test it
[10:39] <ElectroMotive> installing vlc now
[10:40] <cristian_c> ElectroMotive: what desktop environment?
[10:41] <ElectroMotive> i think its xfce
[10:41] <cristian_c> ElectroMotive: try also gnome-mplayer
[10:41] <cristian_c> I think both use gstreamer
[10:41] <ElectroMotive> xfce V4.12
[10:41] <cristian_c> vlc uses own libraries and codecs, instead

[10:45] <ElectroMotive> well vlc works fine
[10:45] <ikonia> ovrflw0x: give it more resource
[10:45] <ovrflw0x> ikonia, like what? i tried increasing video memory to 128MB disabled 2D 3D acceleration but still nothing!
[10:45] <ovrflw0x> i have 1900MB ram given to it
[10:46] <ikonia> you need to understand why it's slow, is it visually slow, or actually slow to do something
[10:46] <ovrflw0x> both
[10:46] <ikonia> how do you know
[10:46] <ikonia> how have you worked that out
[10:47] <ovrflw0x> it doesn't boot up fast and when i drag windows with mouse they lag
[10:47] <jaami> hmm, newb here, plz help, need ti install ubuntu on my system but i makes my system run too slow. what version i should install on core2due?
[10:47] <ovrflw0x> ikonia, i have n3050 celeron with 4gb ram
[10:47] <ikonia> ovrflw0x: boot time is not a measurement of performance
[10:47] <ikonia> ovrflw0x: so thats going to suck
[10:47] <ikonia> the cpu is junk
[10:48] <ovrflw0x> ikonia, how can i still make it reasonably fast?
[10:48] <ikonia> buy a machine with power

[10:54] <kishore> in my regional language, some character is missing how to solve it
[10:55] <oroo> ikonia, thanks....but yes or no would be a more simple answer LOL
[10:55] <ikonia> oroo: reading the information to understand it so you don't have to ask questions like that, would be the right answer "lol"
[10:56] <oroo> okzzz
[10:56] <ElectroMotive> ikonia just likes to be smug
[10:56] <ikonia> ElectroMotive: not at all
[10:56] <YankDownUnder> There's something wrong with being smug? Wow...learn something new every day...wow...
[10:56] <ElectroMotive> well if you call it helpful i would beg to differ
[10:57] <ikonia> ElectroMotive: giving someone the full info to help them properly is "help" and not "smug"
[10:57] <ElectroMotive> yeah all while laughing at them
[10:57] <ElectroMotive> way to go
[10:58] <ikonia> ElectroMotive: I'm not laughing at them at all, thats why I put it in "quotes"
[10:58] <ikonia> as they said lol
[10:58] <ikonia> ElectroMotive: please stop trying to cause a problem because you are unable to get your problem resolved
[10:59] <ElectroMotive> my only problem right now is you trying to tell me not to ask questions where i choose to although its possible not everyone here is also on ##linux as well
[11:00] <thestranger> er
[11:00] <ElectroMotive> just give it a rest

[11:02] <sarek> unless I unmount before I restart, my HFS external becomes read only and i have to repair it on my mac, because repairing it on Ubuntu wont work. Once I repair on my Mac and plug it back into Ubuntu, all becomes well. Any way to avoid this? is this normal? https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2333003
[11:02] <ikonia> sarek: I spoke to you about this yesterday
[11:02] <ikonia> sarek: you're using a file system with poor write support in linux, not unmounting it before reboot is not closing the files properly so it's marked as dirty
[11:03] <sarek> i think one person said 'hfs has bad xxxx'
[11:03] <ikonia> yes, I said more than that, but "yes" it has poor write support on linux
[11:03] <sarek> I didnt really count that as 'spoke to me' about it, but gotcha
[11:03] <OerHeks> writing on HFS+ .. then you got these journaling issues you don't want.
[11:03] <ikonia> I pretty much said what I've just said
[11:04] <sarek> its not journaled but yeah i understand what ikonia is saying
[11:04] <sarek> I suppose i just have to figure out a way to stop a shutdown unless the drive is cleanly unmounted
[11:06] <cristian_c> ikonia: he (oroo) seems to not be present in #ubuntu-arm
[11:06] <cristian_c> maybe, he has solved
[11:08] <ikonia> cristian_c: I don't care
[11:08] <YankDownUnder> I've tried time and again to use HFS drives under linux - it's a futile effort...

[11:14] <cristian_c> ElectroMotive: if you are satisfied with vlc, you could also let miss parole
[11:15] <ElectroMotive> well i use vlc all the time but i really didnt have a need for it on this particular system
[11:15] <ElectroMotive> a simple player would have sufficed
[11:16] <cristian_c> ElectroMotive: then, make a test with players like parole
[11:16] <cristian_c> similar to parole
[11:16] <cristian_c> vlc is much different by that
[11:16] <ElectroMotive> yeah i know
[11:16] <ankit> ubuntu 16.04 LTS sound not working from in-built speakers, but headphones are working fine
[11:17] <ElectroMotive> do they use parole on the standard ubuntu release or just on studio?
[11:17] <ikonia> what does that matter ?
[11:17] <ikonia> it's the same os
[11:17] <ElectroMotive> ikonia, i dont recall asking you
[11:18] <ducasse> ElectroMotive: parole is the xfce player
[11:18] <cristian_c> ElectroMotive: I believe parole is based on gstreamer
[11:18] <ikonia> it's a public channel, that whole point is that it's public, the quicker you drop the smart mouth attitude the quicker you'll get help
[11:18] <ikonia> ElectroMotive: you understand that ubuntu studio, ubuntu xubuntu and the others are the same core OS right ?
[11:18] <ElectroMotive> yeah i did not know it was DE dependent
[11:19] <cristian_c> so, you could try other gstreamer based players, so you can know if you reproduce the issue
[11:19] <ankit> any help
[11:19] <ikonia> saying "any help" is pointless
[11:19] <ElectroMotive> ikonia, for future reference albeit this channel is public dont think for one minute that i am ever asking for your help at all
[11:20] <cristian_c> ankit: check the sound settings (either pavucontrol if you're not using unity) and make a screen of alsamixer
[11:21] <ElectroMotive> so i get kicked for telling one person i dont want their help?
[11:21] <cristian_c> in order to know what chip you are using and what channels are present
[11:21] <redtuxedocash> is there any channel to talk about iphone issues?
[11:21] <YankDownUnder> Relax.
[11:21] <ducasse> !alis | redtuxedocash
[11:21] <ikonia> redtuxedocash: not here - as you've been told a few times, this channel is ubuntu, not your yellow pages of channel
[11:21] <YankDownUnder> redtuxedocash: you can try #MacOSX - there's helpful Mac-heads in there.
[11:23] <zerox_> ubuntu rocks
[11:23] <ankit> cristian_c http://imgur.com/a/7bXlb
[11:24] <cristian_c> ankit: have you also looked at sound settings / pavucontrol?
[11:25] <ankit> cristian_c yes but no luck
[11:25] <cristian_c> ankit: could you post a screen?
[11:26] <cristian_c> ankit: 16.04?
[11:26] <ducasse> ankit: have you tried if it works in windows?
[11:26] <ankit> ducasse: i have ubuntu only :(
[11:27] <astrill> can someone help me when i shut off my computer and hold shift my Grub menu wont open
[11:27] <ankit> cristian_c yes 16.04 LTS
[11:27] <multifractal> I took a photo of the dmesg when my laptop crashes at boot time. Can anyone think what is wrong here? https://imagebin.ca/v/2qjwhwlDN1Gq
[11:27] <ankit> cristian_c settings screen??
[11:27] <ducasse> ankit: i just wondered if it might not detect that the headphone connector is unplugged.
[11:27] <ElectroMotive> astrill, try to hold shift at boot
[11:27] <cristian_c> ankit: when have you installed 16.04?
[11:27] <cristian_c> ankit: sound settings screen
[11:28] <ankit> cristian_c i had upgraded to 16.04
[11:28] <astrill> Electromotive: I did that and it still wont Load up
[11:28] <cristian_c> ankit: then, try into live ubuntu session
[11:28] <ankit> cristian_c: http://imgur.com/a/5JD4i
[11:29] <cristian_c> ankit: using the ubuntu installation media and selecting 'try ubuntu without installing', then try the speaker while in the desktop
[11:29] <ankit> cristian_c: its not working in that case as well
[11:30] <ankit> ducasse: any idea??
[11:30] <cristian_c> ankit: are you using unity?
[11:30] <ElectroMotive> astrill, are you dual booting?
[11:30] <ankit> cristian_c: i don't know actually
[11:31] <ducasse> ankit: just the one i mentioned.
[11:31] <cristian_c> ankit: have ypu upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04, and when?
[11:31] <astrill> ElectroMotive: no i turn on my computer and Hold shift and it just wont Open the Grub
[11:31] <ankit> cristian_c: yes upgraded from 15.10 to 16.04
[11:31] <cristian_c> ankit: what ubuntu .iso file have you got
[11:31] <cristian_c> ?
[11:32] <ducasse> astrill: try spamming shift instead of holding it. if that doesn't work try escape.
[11:32] <therue> with dual boot, i know it's better to install windows first then linux, but say i have a dual boot set up already, if i 'upgrade' my windows.. will it screw up my grub ? in addition i remember win10 changing my system to UEFI instead of BIOS and my linux set up via BIOS/MBR, what will happen if i upgrade my win7 to win10 and it fucks up with the mbr/bios and somehow change it to uefi ? :(
[11:32] <ankit> cristian_c: i downloaded iso file from ubuntu website
[11:32] <cristian_c> ankit: as said by ducasse, check the jack sensing
[11:32] <astrill> ducasse: ok ill try it the next time i black screen and turn off my computer
[11:32] <ankit> cristian_c: how to check jack sensing??
[11:32] <cristian_c> ankit: if headphone diaconnection is detected by sound settings manager
[11:33] <cristian_c> either alsamixer, top
[11:33] <cristian_c> too
[11:33] <ankit> cristian_c: yes sound settings detects disconnection of headphones
[11:33] <ducasse> ankit: have you tried other speakers?
[11:34] <ankit> ducasse: external speakers are working fine
[11:34] <ducasse> ankit: but not built-in?
[11:34] <ankit> ducasse: yes built-in not working :(
[11:35] <ducasse> ankit: what kind of machine?
[11:35] <cristian_c> ankit: I've asked what .iso file you have downloaded, not by what source you have downloaded it
[11:35] <ankit> cristian_c: ubuntu-16.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[11:35] <cristian_c> ankit: ok, unity
[11:36] <ankit> cristian_c: how to check unity??
[11:36] <maarhart> anyone has experience in rooting and flashing a (Lenovo) in ubuntu?
[11:36] <ppf> hi. is it possible to get the groups of a running process?
[11:36] <cristian_c> ankit: you've got unity.
[11:36] <Cooler> my laptop running ubuntu 16.04.1

[11:37] <cristian_c> ankit: you said you've upgraded from 15.10. but now you say you've downloaded 16.04 .iso
[11:37] <ankit> cristian_c: i have downloaded 16.04 iso file just to check speakers
[11:37] <cristian_c> ankit: ah, ok

[12:00] <ankit> how to get rid of these errors??
[12:01] <zerox_> ankit use vim instead of gedit
[12:01] <zerox_> or nano
[12:02] <ducasse> ankit: it's not an error, it's just a warning. does sound work now?
[12:02] <ankit> ducasse: can we remove these warning?
[12:02] <OerHeks> ankit, those are warnings, and are normal, when you open gedit from comandline
[12:03] <OerHeks> or any gtk program with a gui
[12:03] <ankit> OerHeks: can we remove these warning?
[12:03] <OerHeks> no
[12:03] <ducasse> ankit: sure, get the developers to fix it. they don't really matter, so just ignore them.
[12:04] <ankit> ducasse: i tried that solution for sound. Still sound not working.
[12:04] <OerHeks> no developer would accept it as a bug
[12:04] <zerox_> lol
[12:05] <Madhu__> Hi Ducasse: How are you?
[12:05] <ankit> how to fix sound issue??
[12:05] <ducasse> hi, Madhu__
[12:05] <ducasse> ankit: if that didn't work i have no idea.
[12:06] <ankit> ducasse: ok no problem. thanks for your help
[12:06] <OerHeks> ankit, did you logout/login or reboot after that options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1??
[12:06] <OerHeks> or restarted alsa?

[12:50] <whoami_0001> hi all computer heroe
[12:50] <X-tonic> Is btrfs a stable enough to use as a fs for `/` and everything else?
[12:51] <Cooler> ikonia, pastebin.com/bb7Wkv9w
[12:51] <ikonia> X-tonic: depends on your needs
[12:51] <ikonia> Cooler: you keep giving useless information with no context
[12:51] <ikonia> Cooler: I don't know what thats from, what you are doing or anything
[12:52] <soLucien> is there any builtin hash function in ubuntu ?
[12:52] <Cooler> i am trying to install run eclipse
[12:52] <Cooler> eclipse gives that error message
[12:52] <ikonia> Cooler: so you probably have to point it at where the jvm / jdk is
[12:53] <stokbaek> Hey, hope anyone can help with this bind I have caught myself in
[12:53] <ikonia> stokbaek: no idea until you tell us the problem
[12:53] <whoami_0001> what's the problem ?
[12:53] <stokbaek> I did a kernel upgrade on my system and my media shares permissions is this now: d????????? ? ? ? ?
[12:54] <ikonia> stokbaek: seems very unlikely that is anything to do with the kernel
[12:54] <ikonia> stokbaek: what version of ubuntu
[12:54] <stokbaek> if I do chmod and chown with verbose on is it showing the right permissions
[12:54] <stokbaek> its 16.04
[12:54] <ikonia> stokbaek: what kernel did you install
[12:55] <stokbaek> went back to 4.4.0-28-generic
[12:55] <stokbaek> think it was 32 I installed
[12:55] <ikonia> so all standard from the ubuntu repos
[12:55] <stokbaek> yup
[12:55] <whoami_0001> user@user:~$ superuser >> sudo
[12:55] <ikonia> whoami_0001: what ??
[12:55] <Cooler> ikonia, uh theres now 2 folders
[12:55] <whoami_0001> sudo permission ?
[12:55] <ikonia> stokbaek: are the shares, shares you mount from another machine, or shares that you share from your current machine
[12:56] <Cooler> in /usr/lib/jvm/
[12:56] <ikonia> whoami_0001: sudo permissions ? what
[12:56] <whoami_0001> ok!
[12:56] <Cooler> java-1.9.0-openjdk-amd64 and java-9-openjdk-amd64
[12:56] <stokbaek> its a lvm raid6 on the saver that is doing smb share to other machines
[12:56] <stokbaek> server *
[12:56] <ikonia> stokbaek: ok, so you're sharing them out, not mounting them remote
[12:56] <Cooler> which one do i set with export JAVA_HOME=
[12:56] <ikonia> stokbaek: what is the path to one of these shares
[12:57] <ikonia> Cooler: if you can't work out what JAVA_HOME for your IDE is, you won't be able to use the IDE, so I suggest you start reading the basics
[12:57] <X-tonic> ikonia, I wanted a relative stable system for personal usage. However, in my previous attempts when I tried to install `/` in btrfs, it led to basic booting problems. I was wondering if those are now a thing of the past.
[12:57] <ikonia> X-tonic: why do you want btrfs
[12:57] <ikonia> X-tonic: you don't seem to be following it in terms of it's use/stability, so why do you even want it
[12:58] <stokbaek> what do you mean with path. The folder is physical on the server, others connect to it via smb
[12:58] <ikonia> stokbaek: ok, what is the path of one of the shares on the server file system
[12:59] <stokbaek> ikonia, /var/media is where the share lies
[12:59] <Cooler> ikonia, i was following the steps here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14788345/how-to-install-jdk-on-ubuntu-linux
[12:59] <ikonia> stokbaek: ok, so can you pastebin the output of "ls -la /var/media" please
[12:59] <ikonia> Cooler: so ?
[12:59] <Cooler> which version do i set?
[12:59] <Cooler> java-1.9.0-openjdk-amd64 or java-9-openjdk-amd64
[12:59] <Cooler> both folders are in /usr/lib/jvm
[12:59] <ikonia> Cooler: I told you, if you don't now what java_home to set - you won't be able to use the IDE, so start reading the basics of setting up eclipse and the basis of using java
[13:00] <stokbaek> ikonia, http://pastebin.com/AuXPzN9H
[13:00] <ikonia> Cooler: if I have to tell you how and what to set java_home, you are not at a level where you can use the IDE
[13:00] <Cooler> what?
[13:00] <X-tonic> ikonia, I followed some benchmarks which suggested btrfs to be better than ext4, and the future, and I see a lot of it's mention in kernel changelogs. That interests me to try it on my system.
[13:00] <Cooler> i thought the latest jdk was 8
[13:00] <Cooler> but linux apparently has jdk 9
[13:00] <ikonia> X-tonic: you won't see visual performance improvements as a home user
[13:01] <ikonia> X-tonic: just use ext4
[13:01] <Cooler> and i am not sure what 1.9.0 is
[13:01] <ikonia> Cooler: then don't use it
[13:01] <ikonia> stokbaek: ok, so can you do "sudo ls -la /var/media" please and put it in a pastebin
[13:02] <Cooler> also is the jdk se only or does it include java ee apis?
[13:02] <ikonia> depends on the package
[13:02] <stokbaek> ikonia, http://pastebin.com/vkcFc5sf
[13:03] <ikonia> stokbaek: ok - so that looks fine, it looks like you're using access lists that are blocking non-root users from being able to se the permissions
[13:04] <ikonia> stokbaek: see the + sign "drwxr--r--+" on your /var/media dir, you've put an access list on it
[13:04] <stokbaek> ikonia, hmm wierd, dont think I ever played around with acl
[13:04] <ikonia> stokbaek: someone has somewhere
[13:04] <Cooler> ikonia, the tje openjdk 9 is the version that gave that error though
[13:04] <stokbaek> ikonia, so I just have to remove the acl then?
[13:04] <ikonia> Cooler: ok ?
[13:04] <Cooler> when i tried to sudo apt-get install
[13:05] <ikonia> Cooler: yes, and I told you why
[13:05] <Cooler> so should i use 1.9.0 instead
[13:05] <ikonia> stokbaek: I'd first view the access list, see what's set, but yes, you'll probably end up removing it as you won't need it
[13:07] <stokbaek> ikonia, hmm acl package isn't even installed on the system
[13:07] <ikonia> there is an acl there
[13:07] <stokbaek> oh found it
[13:09] <Cooler> so should i use 1.9.0 instead?
[13:10] <ikonia> it's up to you
[13:15] <Cooler> pastebin.com./kxaia9hr
[13:16] <Cooler> pastebin.com/kxaia9hr
[13:16] <Cooler> eclipse is giving that error after i set the JAVA_HOME and PATH to openjdk-9-jdk

[13:23] <Madhu__> Hi Adroit
[13:24] <adroit_machine> hello Madhu__
[13:25] <Madhu__> Please give me which one will support for  ubuntu in ML350p G8 server
[13:25] <ikonia> which one of what ?
[13:28] <ducasse> Madhu__: http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201309-14183/
[13:28] <stokbaek> ikonia, I removed the acl on the folders now, but still cant see them without sudo. Does it require a reboot?
[13:35] <OerHeks> HP provides a driver for the gen 8 platform, trusty as latest https://launchpad.net/~hp-iss-team/+archive/ubuntu/hp-storage and https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/project/ubuntu-hpdsa/
[13:35] <OerHeks> so i guess 14.04 Madhu__
[13:39] <Madhu__> Ducasse : In the url showing e5-v2 server but ml350p g8 is e5-v1 server.
[13:40] <OerHeks> maybe that v1 is not certified, and the drivers won't work: then AHCI and softraid is your option

[14:08] <skinux> Yeah..that was it
[14:09] <skinux> The thing about LMMS, I've only been able to find the drum (beat) instrument and the piano.

[14:13] <bhavesh> works*
[14:14] <lordcirth> nooooooob, you're not on Ubuntu On Windows, are you?  That's a current bug there.
[14:14] <nooooooob> yes i am :D
[14:14] <nooooooob> on windows 10
[14:14] <Gorulay> My computer keeps restarting, have tried Ubuntu and Windows and no solve. If I wait 40 min I get the computer going, how to solve?
[14:14] <lordcirth> nooooooob, not supported here.  However, it's a known bug and it's being worked on.
[14:15] <traubisoda_> Gorgulay maybe it's overheating?
[14:15] <nooooooob> thank you @lordcirth
[14:15] <lordcirth> Gorulay, instant reboot with no warning?  Sounds like power supply.
[14:15] <lordcirth> instant shutdown would be overheat, normally, but check both
[14:15] <lordcirth> #hardware may help
[14:16] <Gorulay> lordcirth, I have a 1 year old computer, Acer Aspire Nitro V 17. I mean, something to clean in the computer, dust?
[14:16] <nooooooob> @lordcirth will aircrack-ng work ?
[14:16] <OerHeks> nooooooob, this is not windows support.
[14:16] <Guest85172> ciao
[14:16] <ikonia> yeah, aricrack-ng is wht you need to scan your home network....honestly.

[14:19] <__raven> hi
[14:19] <Animu> hey guys, i have a little problem with running my script, it does execute without superuser permissions, but when i try to use it with su it seems to can't find the script, any clue what could cause that ?
[14:20] <ikonia> you don't use su
[14:22] <Animu> but in this script i check if user has su permissions, and if yes then show some info, how to use it then ?
[14:22] <lordcirth> Animu, are you calling the script locally or from PATH?
[14:22] <lordcirth> Animu, sudo
[14:22] <Animu> from path, but i loaded it correctly as im able to call it without superuser
[14:22] <lordcirth> Animu, but is it in root's path?
[14:23] <__raven> i want to connect to a bluetooth audio device (BCM2046B1) with ubuntu 16.04 but i am not able to make it work: "blueman.bluez.errors.DBusFailedError: Protocol not available..." http://pastebin.com/QXU1rV4a any ideas to solve that?
[14:23] <SchrodingersScat> what are the script permissions?
[14:23] <Animu> yeah i meant with using sudo it doesnt work
[14:23] <lordcirth> Animu, You probably didn't put it in root's path.
[14:23] <Animu> root have different PATH than the one in .profile ?
[14:24] <ikonia> where is the file
[14:24] <Animu> SchrodingersScat if you mean if it's executable then yeah
[14:24] <lordcirth> Animu, every user has a PATH, that's why it's set in your user directory.
[14:24] <Gorulay> lordcirth, Have any suggestion where I start? I see nothing on my screen on startup, just the keyboard lighting on and off like it restarts.
[14:24] <Animu> home/<username>/bin   so i assumed that it would be okay if i try to run it with sudo on that profile
[14:25] <SchrodingersScat> Animu: no, that's specific to <username>
[14:25] <lordcirth> Gorulay, #hardware
[14:25] <Gorulay> lordcirth, thanks, will go there.
[14:25] <Animu> so when I use sudo even on a specific profile then im really using root profile ?
[14:26] <ikonia> no
[14:26] <ikonia> you are using an elevated privilege
[14:30] <Animu> but even then i still should be able to use the su privilege with sudo, right ? to check i use simple [ "$(id -u)" = "0" ]
[14:31] <Animu> here is full script: http://pastebin.com/nuKfnYBn
[14:31] <Gourlay> lordcirth, I get this message when attempting to write at #hardware: ##hardware :Cannot send to channel.
[14:32] <rypervenche> Animu: How many users do you have on your machine?
[14:32] <Animu> only me, system fresh after reinstalling
[14:33] <rypervenche> Animu: Then change the script and remove the "su" part.
[14:33] <rypervenche> Animu: No need for su in the script.
[14:33] <rypervenche> Animu: And no need for sudo.
[14:37] <Animu> rypervenche: i'm just following tutorial which says that home_space function needs superuser to examine the size of each user's home directory
[14:38] <rypervenche> Animu: It does not. That is only needed if you need to see all users' home directories, and even then that is not likely.
[14:38] <OerHeks> Gourlay, read the whole message, maybe you need to register with #freenode?
[14:38] <OerHeks> !register
[14:39] <Gourlay> !register
[14:39] <OerHeks> no no, you can read it already
[14:41] <SchrodingersScat> rypervenche: would miss a couple directories you normally don't have permissions for with other users, .cache i think for example.
[14:42] <Animu> rypervenche: yeah that was the case to look up all users (omitting that currently i'm the only one) and it in fact really doesn't need superuser, but that doesn't explain why on sudo it can't find my scripts ?
[14:43] <ikonia> Animu: show me EXACTLY how you call your script
[14:44] <Animu> sudo sysinfo_page > sysinfo_page.html
[14:44] <ikonia> Animu: from what directory ?
[14:44] <Animu> ikonia: Desktop currently, but without sudo it works fine
[14:45] <ikonia> Animu: what is the location of the script
[14:45] <SchrodingersScat> Animu: thought we solved this, you have it in your ~/bin
[14:45] <rypervenche> SchrodingersScat: But he only has one user, so it's all good. And ~/.cache is 775 for me. The only files he would miss on other users would probably be ~/.ssh and the like. Not likely to change a lot in terms of used space.
[14:45] <Animu> ikonia: location is /home/<username>/bin
[14:46] <ikonia> Animu: so apply some logic
[14:46] <ikonia> Animu: it's in your home directory - it's not in roots path
[14:46] <ikonia> sudo /home/<username>/bin/script_name
[14:46] <SchrodingersScat> rypervenche: on my system makes the difference of 64K without sudo, 376K with sudo, huuuge difference.
[14:47] <akik> rypervenche: you can't expect all user dirs to be open for everyone
[14:47] <rypervenche> SchrodingersScat: But you're still talking about more than one user. We are not.
[14:47] <SchrodingersScat> rypervenche: afaik this is homework, so probably better to fit to the question ;(
[14:49] <rypervenche> akik: This is a script that he is trying to run for his user only. No need for root in his script. But, that's enough talk about this.
[14:49] <Animu> ikonia: ohh i think i get it now then, thanks for help :) and sorry for causing problems
[14:49] <Animu> thank you all guys for your help and time :)

[15:57] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: What is the issue again ? ( just re-joined) . Considered : http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/105343/en-us ?
[15:58] <ducasse> dyc3: you most likely need libxkbcommon-dev
[15:58] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om:  when I login sometimes the dash and menubar get all glitched up like this: https://img42.com/ihyP2+  If I click anything in the glitched area it suddenly looks normal. How can I troubleshoot this?
[15:59] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: I'm using one of the latest Nvidia binary drivers
[15:59] <bmintz> so any ideas for this fcitx issue?
[15:59] <Sutliff707> I am having trouble getting smartmontools to send me email reports after completing tests, Anyone willing to help
[16:00] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: The nvidia driver loaded ? what returns ' sudo lshw -C display ' ? of interest is the configuration line .
[16:01] <dyc3> ducasse, thanks, that worked
[16:01] <OerHeks> bmintz, maybe the ubuntu-cn channel is more of a help
[16:01] <bmintz> ok thanks :)
[16:04] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: idk what to look for but this is the output: http://pastebin.com/r2fG9utu
[16:07] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: " configuration: driver=nvidia  " so the driver did load .. next qustion to answer is did it build properly .. we can look at the log file to see: ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit ' .
[16:09] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: alright: http://pastebin.com/raw/18WHjBJ9

[16:15] <Sutliff707> I am not getting smartmontools email reports, my email server is setup correctly. can someone help?
[16:15] <tachyons> OerHeks:  Oops , Sorry . I thought this is ubuntu snappy channel . Question was about snappy packaging issue

[16:21] <rgl> I'm having trouble trying to match a dhcpd host by UUID. I though it was enough to do option dhcp-client-identifier 00:00:00:00:00:00:40:00:80:00:00:00:00:00:00:02; ... but NO! I've also tried https://gist.github.com/rgl/35d682d97f9a1124e8755714d1c630af but none works... can you help?
[16:23] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: While I am dithering .. I would also like to see the display log . ' cat .xsession-errors ' to a pastebin, please .
[16:26] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: alright, it's very short: http://pastebin.com/raw/TYt5RDSs
[16:27] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: there is a file with almost the same name '.xsession-errors.old': http://pastebin.com/raw/UPwLSLQW
[16:28] <OerHeks> what nvidiadriver did you load for that ti750, waddupglitchmob
[16:29] <waddupglitchmob> OerHeks: using the 'NVIDIA binary driver - version 361.42 from nvidia-361'
[16:30] <waddupglitchmob> I'm on Ubuntu 16.04 btw.
[16:30] <OerHeks> oke, that driver should work.
[16:31]  * Seriusam ho
[16:31] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: Well .. the .xsessions log / not so good huh > .. Do you have authorization from the display manager ? ' cat /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log '
[16:31] <waddupglitchmob> If I were to try and describe the problem: it seems like right after logging in the dash and top bar are not being rendered and/or using an old frame as you can see the apps from the previously logged in user. When I click something in the bar and I think thus trigger a 'refresh' it suddenly looks normal.

[17:43] <WindTaLkeR>  how can i fix it
[17:44] <WindTaLkeR> anybody can help me about issue
[17:45] <OerHeks> seems like your wifi is not Wlan0 but wlp7s0, this is the new 'predictable interface naming'
[17:45] <srk_> help! my ctrl button suddenly stops working when i restart my pc it starts work normally ( OS : ubuntu 16.04 lts)
[17:45] <bmintz> onem_industries you may have luck with the find command and -newerBt <see -d option of gnu date>
[17:46] <OerHeks> and monitor mode, that depends on the device and driver...
[17:46] <bmintz> !patience | srk_
[17:46] <idoko> OneM_Industries: how about using find with the -mtime flag?
[17:46] <bmintz> i think they want to search by creation time
[17:46] <kevank> I thought my issue with the network was lxc and/or kvm but it looks like routing in general.  I have a public ethernet interface with a subnet statically routed to the public ip.   A dummy interface on the server with an IP from the subnet on it.  Routing is enabled for ipv4.  I can ssh into the public address and the subnet address remotely but performance on the subnet addess (routed) is really poor and on the public address it is as expected.
[17:46] <kevank>  The firewall is disabled....  any suggestions?
[17:46] <OerHeks>  idoko +1 -mtime or -ctime
[17:46] <docmur> I made some LXC containers on Ubuntu 16.04 and then moved them to a Ubuntu 14.04 box, when I try to start them I get: http://pastie.org/10932483
[17:46] <OneM_Industries> Yep, trying that now, thank you.
[17:47] <kevank> This is on 16.04
[17:47] <WindTaLkeR> my wifi is wlp7s0 . yes it's right but i cant fix it i did everything seriously . is it a device problem ?
[17:49] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: Not much smarter now than when you went to eat . Is this a lap top ? And have you looked in bios at the IOMMU options ?
[17:49] <OerHeks> WindTaLkeR, device OR driver problem. i think the #kali channels are up2date with such list.
[17:50] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: hmm no it's not a laptop. And the IOMMU settings aren't related I think. I only put it on soft so it doesn't spew 100 lines of errors about AMD-Vi when I boot, and I'm using an AMD processor
[17:50] <eduardas> Sorry, it's test
[17:51] <OerHeks> pm
[17:51] <OerHeks> !pm | WindTaLkeR
[17:52] <WindTaLkeR> i can ask now
[17:52] <WindTaLkeR> right?
[17:54] <bmintz> i think if it's been half an hour plus and your question has been scrolled into oblivion by others chatting, then yes it's appropriate
[17:54] <bmintz> but if there's enough scrollback that we can all se your question in the first place, keep waiting
[17:54] <bmintz> this isn't customer service, nobody has an obligation to help
[17:54] <bmintz> if they do it's because they feel like it
[17:55] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: alright so the IOMMU option is turned on in the BIOS
[17:55] <bmintz> windtalker what command led that error to occur?
[18:00] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: K ^^ .. and in " Additional Software " is AMD firmware " ; is the patch installed ? ' dpkg -l linux-firmware ' .
[18:02] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: err I don't really understand the out put of that one: http://pastebin.com/raw/5D8VmTGp
[18:03] <Bashing-om> !info linux-firmware
[18:03] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: in the additional drivers window I have this: https://img42.com/THqae+
[18:04] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: Well, you have the patch .. so much for that idea too .
[18:05] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: but can the processor be responsible for graphical glitches?
[18:05] <waddupglitchmob> I thought it's always the GPU
[18:08] <lyze> Hey guys, friend of mine wants to get rid of ubuntu and asked me to do it. Now I don't want to just delete the partition since grub is installed on the linux partition. I've tried to recover the windows bootloader but according to the windows install disc it operates properly but it wont get detected by the uefi. (windows 10) Now should I install grub to a seperate partition or what exactly should I do?
[18:08] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: Somewhat grasping at straws .. as I can not explain " (II) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Deleting GPU-0 " . Maybe change the driver ? what retuns ' sudo ubuntu-drivers list ' . As I expect the system to like 364 version drivr better .
[18:09] <lyze> The bootinfoscript file creates this result.txt: http://paste.ubuntu.com/22601084/
[18:09] <waddupglitchmob> amd64-microcode nvidia-361 nvidia-340
[18:10] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: Huh ?? This is a 16.04 install right ? ..
[18:10] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: yes
[18:11] <Bashing-om> !info nvidia364
[18:11] <Bashing-om> !info nvidia-364
[18:11] <Bashing-om> !info nvidia-361
[18:12] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: I guess my bad in think'n 364 is in the repo .
[18:12] <waddupglitchmob> Why?
[18:12] <waddupglitchmob> Shouldn't it be?
[18:13] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: I also read through the changes nvidia made between version 361 and the lastest but that's mostly things about Vulkan and setups with other hardware than mine.
[18:13] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: Apparently not supposed to be .. We do have a trusted PPA for later versioned drivers .
[18:14] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: so how is it possible I'm using that one then?
[18:14] <waddupglitchmob> I didn't download anything
[18:15] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: Well > I am a believer that Nvidia knows their hardware best .. and for that 750ti they remommend the 367 version driver ..
[18:16] <Bashing-om> IF we were to go with the 367 version driver .. we would have to activate the PPA source .
[18:16] <waddupglitchmob> !info nvidia-367
[18:17] <waddupglitchmob> Hmmm, should I try that one out that? What PPA should I add?
[18:17] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/105343/en-us .. for the PPA see: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa .
[18:19] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: what about this: "We currently recommend: `nvidia-361`, Nvidia's current long lived branch."
[18:19] <waddupglitchmob> ?
[18:19] <virtuosoj> Can you run Unity 8 off of a 16.10 live USB?
[18:20] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: As OerHeks remarked .. should work .. but .. there are problems .. maybe changing the driver will fix and or give us a hint what is wrong ??
[18:21] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: so if I use the PPA to install it I don't need to download it from nvidia's website right?
[18:21] <waddupglitchmob> It's going to be hard to test, but I will try. It happens around 1/4 logins.
[18:21] <OerHeks> waddupglitchmob, such artifacts that resets itself when pressing mouse, i have seen this once, with ati, the solution was to reset the monitor itself, to vendor defaults with its own menu buttons
[18:23] <waddupglitchmob> OerHeks: that's interesting but if it were the monitor (I dual boot) wouldn't the 14.04 have the same problem?
[18:23] <ioria> waddupglitchmob, had the same problem with nouveau ?
[18:24] <waddupglitchmob> ioria: hmm good question I can't remember (I have this issue for some weeks now).
[18:25] <ioria> waddupglitchmob, 750ti is Maxwell, iirc
[18:25] <waddupglitchmob> But I'd rather not use nouveau since the performance is worse right?
[18:25] <waddupglitchmob> My brother plays games on this system
[18:25] <OerHeks> it should yes, if not then there is a driver/kernel change.
[18:26] <OerHeks> try the driver ppa as Bashing-om suggest, add it, and run the driver tool again
[18:26] <ioria> waddupglitchmob, it's said maxwell chipset requires to blacklist nouveau, but sure i don't have that card
[18:26] <waddupglitchmob> OerHeks: what do you mean with "run the driver tool again"?
[18:26] <OerHeks> the driver menu you used to install your current nvidia?
[18:27] <OerHeks> type driver in dash
[18:27] <waddupglitchmob> ah okay
[18:28] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: ' sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa ; sudo aot update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo apt-get install nvidia-367 ; sudo reboot ' will do it in terminal .
[18:28] <waddupglitchmob> I just added the PPA and ran 'apt update', now 'apt list --upgradable' also lists 'nvidia-361' as upgradable
[18:29] <lyze> Trying to remove ubuntu and revert back to the windows bootloader. "sudo efibootmgr" only lists "ubuntu" and the "bootinfoscript" result is this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/22601084/   ...   how can I safely remove the linux partitions so that I can still boot into win 10?
[18:30] <waddupglitchmob> Thanks, I'll reboot then cya all in 5-10 minutes (trying to get the screen to glitch will take some time ;P
[18:30] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: Nothing wrong with trying to upgrade 361 and see what results .. we can  alsways purge what is and do " something else" .
[18:32] <avionic> hello
[18:32] <avionic> my Ubuntu Software center just has a wheel spinning... wont load anything
[18:33] <avionic> Nevermind I kill -9 the pid and it works fine after reloading
[18:34] <Bashing-om> avionic: Internet connectivity ? what results with terminal command ' ping -c3 ubuntu.com ' ?
[18:35] <avionic> Bashing it's not internet...i'm chatting to you on the same box
[18:38] <OerHeks> !info ddate
[18:39] <waddupglitchmob> Alright I'm back, the bad news: it still glitches, the good news: the 'glitches' now look like some kind of art
[18:39] <waddupglitchmob> https://img42.com/W6ETw+
[18:40] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: OerHeks Reset unity to default ?
[18:41] <waddupglitchmob> oh could it be the theme that's messing it up?
[18:41] <waddupglitchmob> I'm using Numix
[18:41] <OerHeks> theme, sure
[18:42] <waddupglitchmob> Bashing-om: with this? `unity-tweak-tool --reset-unity`
[18:42] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: +1 on the theme as a probable source of the fault .
[18:43] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob: Out of my experience with Numix .
[18:43] <ioria> waddupglitchmob,  Guest Account ?
[18:44] <waddupglitchmob> brb. logging in and out
[18:48] <waddupglitchmob_> Bashing-om: OerHeks: just tried switching to my account and the guest account but even on the guest account I got the glitches :|
[18:48] <OerHeks> waddupglitchmob, seems like your issue too https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=214625 even though it is mint
[18:49] <OerHeks> so i guess it is the numix theme itself
[18:49] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: Well that do indicate it glitch is system wide, rather rhen a user config issue .
[18:51] <waddupglitchmob_> OerHeks: but since the guest account doesn't use that theme how is that possible? Does it 'leak' because I'm using it on the account I'm switching from?
[18:53] <OerHeks> time to file a bugreport
[18:54] <OerHeks> but against what package, nvidia, kernel ...
[18:55] <waddupglitchmob_> OerHeks: I have absolutely no clue
[18:55] <waddupglitchmob_> I tried reporting a bug once for Ubuntu like three years ago and had to create an account on launchpad?
[18:55] <waddupglitchmob_> But I couldn't figure out how to use that website ;P
[18:56] <OerHeks> easy, ubuntu-bug <package>
[18:56] <OerHeks> !bug
[18:56] <waddupglitchmob_> TIL
[18:56] <waddupglitchmob_> but then again, what package?
[18:57] <waddupglitchmob_> I mean the issue is way to vague atm. right?
[18:57] <OerHeks> Yeah, i was thinking out loud too, nvidia, kernel ..
[18:57] <OerHeks> numix should be mentioned too
[18:58] <waddupglitchmob_> yeah I guess
[18:58] <waddupglitchmob_> if it could 'leak', lack for a better term, that would be a bug itself
[18:58] <OerHeks> Bashing-om ??
[18:59] <Bashing-om> OerHeks: Well ,, that gets the big boys involved .. I have no better alternative .
[18:59] <OerHeks> well, ou tested it against 14.04 and guest account
[18:59] <OerHeks> c/ou/you
[19:00] <OerHeks> i would go for nvidia
[19:00] <__raven> i want to connect to a bluetooth audio device (BCM2046B1) with ubuntu 16.04 but i am not able to make it work: "blueman.bluez.errors.DBusFailedError: Protocol not available..." http://pastebin.com/QXU1rV4a any ideas to solve that?
[19:01] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: I do have another outside thought .. as the boot parameter was needed in 14.04 ..is it still required in 16.04 ? Have you tried to boot 16.04 without it ?
[19:01] <waddupglitchmob_> Bashing-om: oh no it's the other way around.
[19:02] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: Surprising .. 16.04 is to be smarter than 14.04 .
[19:02] <waddupglitchmob_> Bashing-om: caught me by suprise too, I've had zero problems with 14.04 but 16.04 messed it up
[19:03] <waddupglitchmob_> I guess it's really hard to move forward without causing regression when it comes to handling hardware
[19:06] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: Your AMD board ,, greater tham A9 ? : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IOMMU-supporting_hardware#Desktop_2 .
[19:06] <waddupglitchmob_> Bashing-om: OerHeks: getting really tired, shall I just report to nvidia then? How would I describe the issue, what should I mention? Also the command would be 'ubuntu-bug nvidia'?
[19:07] <waddupglitchmob_> Bashing-om: do you mean the motherboard?
[19:08] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: Yeah, the motherboard in particular .
[19:09] <waddupglitchmob_> Bashing-om: I have the 970A-UD3P
[19:10] <waddupglitchmob_> The version without the 'P' is in the list
[19:13] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: Yep. Pretty decent board there . Should have no problems .. but !
[19:16] <waddupglitchmob_> Bashing-om: you're leaving me in suspense now ;D
[19:16] <ioria> waddupglitchmob, i'd try 3 things:  nouveau (to be sure the culprit is nvidia and not the new 16.04 xorg) , or disable  secure boot , or blacklist nouveau
[19:18] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: ^^ we are not going to leave you .. Just that this is above my range and pay grade .
[19:20] <waddupglitchmob_> Bashing-om: hehe alright
[19:20] <waddupglitchmob_> ioria: blacklisting nouveau seems like a pretty drastic step
[19:21] <ioria> waddupglitchmob,  well, you don't use it :þ
[19:22] <ioria> waddupglitchmob,  never occurred to me your issue... if it were on console, i'd say that's a memory corruption ... do you have, by any chance, another kernel to boot ?
[19:23] <waddupglitchmob_> ioria: well I also have 14.04 installed, which is working fine
[19:23] <bmintz> just crickets on the #ubuntu-cn
[19:23] <bmintz> it's been a  few hours and there's not many peeps on
[19:23] <ioria> waddupglitchmob, on 16.04 you have only <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[19:25] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: A quick way to check blacklist: ' sudo grep 'blacklist.*nouveau' /etc/modprobe.d/* ' .
[19:27] <waddupglitchmob_> nvidia-367_hybrid.conf:blacklist nouveau nvidia-367_hybrid.conf:blacklist lbm-nouveau nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf:blacklist nouveau nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf:blacklist lbm-nouveau
[19:28] <ioria> waddupglitchmob, you installed 367 ?
[19:29] <waddupglitchmob_> ioria: yes
[19:29] <waddupglitchmob_> from the graphics-drivers ppa
[19:29] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: ioria ^ Do not see nouveau as a possible conflict here .
[19:30] <Bashing-om> ioria: ^ the 367 install at my instigation . was 361 with problem .
[19:30] <ioria> Bashing-om, i see
[19:31] <ioria> Bashing-om,  well, it's the latest i think , suggested by the nvidia itself
[19:31] <OerHeks> blacklisting nouveau could do no harm, i guess
[19:32] <ioria> lotuspsychje, lotusssssssssssssss
[19:32] <lotuspsychje> hey ioria :p
[19:32] <ioria> lotuspsychje, well come back
[19:33] <lotuspsychje> ioria: ive been there in discuss a few
[19:33] <ioria> lotuspsychje, i see ^_^
[19:33] <waddupglitchmob_> Getting really late here, need sleep. I want to thank each one of you: Bashing-om, OerHeks & ioria. Tomorrow I will try nouveau (if that fixes it report `ubuntu-bug nvidia`), try to blacklist nouveau.
[19:34] <waddupglitchmob_> I can't thank you all enough, especially Bashing-om with all your patience.
[19:34] <Bashing-om> waddupglitchmob_: NP .. we do this because we want to .. add our bit to our community .
[19:35] <ioria> waddupglitchmob,  ok, we'll wait for you you
[19:35] <waddupglitchmob_> I love communities like these
[19:35] <ioria> waddupglitchmob,  another try, would be boot a livecd
[19:36] <mikek> Can anyone help me with ubuntu networking problem. I am having high packet loss between two machines connected by an ethernet switch.
[19:36] <ioria> waddupglitchmob,  (will use nouveau, obviously)
[19:37] <lotuspsychje> unity-greeter got stuck on earlier picture instead of my current wallpaper background on login 16.04, i have been messing with dconf and wallpaper folders but cant get it straight, any clues?
[19:37] <lotuspsychje> mikek: perhaps wireshark or etherape can sort your lost out?
[19:38] <OerHeks> mikek, change cable?
[19:38] <JakesDen>  any wai i can have a script running to make it so when caps lock is on it holds right click on?
[19:39] <ioria> lotuspsychje,  have you modified some lightdm's file ?
[19:39] <lotuspsychje> ioria: not that i know off
[19:39] <mikek> lotuspsychje: I don't have wireshark or etherape installed but I can try that
[19:40] <mikek> OerHeks: Ok I will try switching cables
[19:40] <lotuspsychje> mikek: how did you notice packet lost? ping?
[19:40] <mikek> lotuspyschje: yes with ping. It's around 70% packet loss
[19:42] <lotuspsychje> mikek: did it work before?
[19:42] <mikek> lotuspsychje: I ran "netstat -s" and there is a high number of packets dropped because of missing route. not sure what that means exactly.
[19:43] <mikek> lotuspyschje: no this is a new setup
[19:43] <lotuspsychje> mikek: both boxes same ubuntu version? updated to latest? good network card drivers?
[19:44] <ioria> lotuspsychje,  http://askubuntu.com/questions/772253/what-file-or-setting-controls-user-backgrounds-in-unity-greeter
[19:44] <OerHeks> hardware breaks after 5 years, or within 2 weeks .. but i would check the cables first
[19:44] <MonkeyDust> hi lotuspsychje
[19:44] <lotuspsychje> hey MonkeyDust :p
[19:45] <lotuspsychje> ioria: lemme check
[19:45] <ioria> lotuspsychje,  looks like your issue, not sure about the fix
[19:46] <mikek> lotuspyschje: yes both are ubuntu 16.04. I am not sure about the network card drivers.
[19:47] <craptalk> is it possible to do penetration testing on ubuntu distro?
[19:47] <ikonia> yes
[19:47] <craptalk> and is there any free material on the internet about pentest?
[19:47] <ikonia> no
[19:47] <ikonia> nothing good
[19:47] <mikek> OerHeks: tried changing cable but still no bueno
[19:47] <craptalk> ikonia: should i just install metasploit framework?
[19:48] <ikonia> no
[19:48] <docmur> Is it possible to download perl from 5.18 to 5.14?
[19:48] <ikonia> docmur: if there is a package for it in the ubuntu repos - that is an easy situation, other than that it will make things become unsupported
[19:49] <lotuspsychje> mikek: check network drivers with lshw -C network perhaps
[19:49] <lotuspsychje> ioria: i dont see a 10-unity-greeter file there
[19:50] <lotuspsychje> ioria: and 10-unity-settings doesnt seem like to contain wallpaper stuff
[19:50] <ioria> lotuspsychje, "I have created the file ... "
[19:50] <lotuspsychje> ioria: ok lemme try
[19:52] <mikek> lotuspsychje: Here is a gist https://gist.github.com/mkaisercross/721be04181d8384600796a1805109a13
[19:54] <lotuspsychje> mikek: perhaps it might be handy to tail -f /var/log/syslog while data transfer between both boxes maybe some usefull errors?
[19:54] <Guest79588> Help please cant source the problem ubuntu 16.04 arduino 1.6.10  can not find the motive why  ttyUSB0 dosent show up at Ports
[19:57] <MonkeyDust> Guest79588  i guess you have to be in #ubuntu-arm
[19:57] <mikek> lotuspyschje: ok added the output to the https://gist.github.com/mkaisercross/721be04181d8384600796a1805109a13
[20:00] <bmintz> help! my mouse cursor is invisible in xfce after locking and unlocking the screen and now i have to make extensive use of keyboard shortcuts i'm not familiar with!
[20:00] <bmintz> wat do?
[20:01] <mikek> lotuspyschje: I checked the output on both machines by the way. It looked pretty much the same.
[20:01] <Bashing-om> bmintz: I have seen some instances of ctl+alt+F1 ; alt+f7 brings it back .. maybe ?
[20:02] <bmintz> tried that it didn't help
[20:02] <bmintz> that's my goto normally
[20:02] <guzzlefry> bmintz: I'm trying to remember how I fixed that, other than disabling anything that would lock the screen...
[20:02] <bmintz> i just did drag and drop and that resolved it for some reason :o
[20:02] <bmintz> i swear my bugs are the worst sometimes
[20:03] <bmintz> *strangest, at least i can boot!
[20:03] <lotuspsychje> mikek: router or firewall interfere?
[20:04] <guzzlefry> bmintz: There's a worse one where if you unplug the mouse, or it goes to sleep (being a wireless mouse) when you enter sleep mode you won't be able to wake the computer back up. :P
