[00:19] <bluefive> I want to buy this mouse but am worried about the Ubuntu support.
[00:20] <bluefive> Any comments?
[00:21] <iSlayWyverns> Should I install 14.04.01 instead of .04? What's the difference
[00:21] <hecatae> bluefive, should be good https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Logitech_Marble_Mouse
[00:22] <k1l> iSlayWyverns: you know servicepacks on windows?
[00:22] <iSlayWyverns> k1l kinda yeah
[00:22] <hecatae> what's windows
[00:22] <k1l> Silverbaq: its the same. they include all updates to that date. and they ship a newer kernel.
[00:23] <iSlayWyverns> oh wait...
[00:24] <iSlayWyverns> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases I saw this and got confused of 'HWE 2016'
[00:24] <bluefive> hecatae, Yes
[00:24] <bluefive> hecatae, But just how do you configure it?
[00:26] <k1l> iSlayWyverns: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Kernel.2FSupport.A14.04.x_Ubuntu_Kernel_Support
[00:26] <iSlayWyverns> k1l, is it possible to jump on the latest LTS Kernel?
[00:26] <iSlayWyverns> like, right now...
[00:27] <znr> !IDLE
[00:28] <k1l> iSlayWyverns: you can switch the kernels with installing the metapcakges. what do you want exactly?
[00:28] <k1l> iSlayWyverns: if you installed a 14.04 and run all updates you are on 14.04.4 just besides the kernel.
[00:29] <hecatae> bluefive, I then read this and got scared https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Logitech_Marblemouse_USB
[00:29] <iSlayWyverns> k1l, thanks for clarifying!
[00:30] <root> hi
[00:30] <Guest1733> linux is cool
[00:31] <rud0lf> nah it's just moderate
[00:31] <bluefive> hecatae, Scared why?
[00:35] <hecatae> bluefive, should it not just work in ubuntu, why do you need to edit /usr/share/X11/50-marblemouse.conf just to get it working as you want it
[00:38] <NoCode> Is there anyway to get the f.lux PPA working in Wily?
[00:38] <minimec> hecatae: I see why you were scared, but... Under windows you would probably download some 100MB binary blob that needs a minute to initialize on boot.... On linux you have everything on board. With htat tutorial it's just a copy/paste and you're good... ;)
[00:42] <hecatae> minimec, under Arch it just works though?
[00:44] <minimec> hecatae: Drivers and xrandr are evolving... and Arch is bleeding edge.
[00:44] <hecatae> minimec, and manjaro is bleeding edge with a tourniquet applied
[00:47] <k1l> NoCode: just use redshift. its in the repos
[00:58] <NoCode> k1l, Will check it out. Thanks.
[00:58] <NoCode> k1l, Is there a tray icon and all that too?
[01:01] <NoCode> k1l, Is there anyway to adjust the colour profile to make my screen at least a little more usable? xD
[01:03] <minimec> NoCode: There is a tray icon for redshift, but you need to copy/paste an initial config file... http://jonls.dk/redshift/
[01:03] <NoCode> Yes, looking at the wiki currently.
[01:04] <Giddles> re
[01:04] <Giddles> eh
[01:04] <Giddles> i wanna run ubuntu mate on a raspberry pi
[01:04] <bluefive> http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R150RN7RUJ77VF/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_viewpnt?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B007L5XW9S#R150RN7RUJ77VF
[01:05] <bluefive> This guy says the AMD models are MUCH superior to the Intel models.
[01:05] <Giddles> i got an hdd and wanna only load the bootloader from sd card, the rest over hdd
[01:05] <bluefive> How is the AMD support in Ubuntu?
[01:05] <Giddles> can someone help me howto?
[01:06] <texla> where are the log files in 14.04
[01:07] <Bashing-om> texla: Most/many are in the /var/log/ directory .
[01:07] <hecatae> bluefive, the fglrx support in ubuntu is amazing, sadly it's being removed in 16.04
[01:07] <Giddles> hmm
[01:07] <Giddles> is it possible?
[01:07] <[Saint]> "the log files" is somewhat needlessly vague, texla
[01:08] <Giddles> to pack the bootloader on the sd and the rest works on?
[01:08] <Giddles> with raspbipian it works very well
[01:09] <[Saint]> Giddles: sure - just create, or move, a dedicated /boot partition
[01:09] <Giddles> yes.. but hmm
[01:09] <Giddles> im not the best .. :/
[01:09] <Giddles> anyway i format first the hdd and the sdcard
[01:09] <[Saint]> ...why?
[01:10] <[Saint]> That's just creating more work for yourself.
[01:10] <Giddles> well its nearly done ;)
[01:10] <Giddles> can i format the hdd in ntfs and reformat it later?
[01:10] <[Saint]> There's no reason why, except for the fact that you just nuked it, you couldn;t have done this without destroying your current instalaltion.
[01:11] <[Saint]> Hindsight, I guess.
[01:11] <bluefive> hecatae, removed why?
[01:11] <Giddles> well i wanna change from raspbipian to mate
[01:12] <Giddles> so i install mate on the sd first
[01:12] <Giddles> looks like hdd not accepted by windows machine..
[01:13] <[Saint]> Windows doesn't know how to "speak EXT*" by default.
[01:13] <Giddles> ah ok
[01:13] <Giddles> thanks
[01:13] <[Saint]> So that's entirely expected.
[01:13] <[Saint]> There is a service pack available however.
[01:13] <Giddles> hehe ah im happy to get rid of the kb which has the gwx.exe on board for win10 ad
[01:14] <[Saint]> the raspberrypi is a bit of a special candidate and doesn't really offer much flexibility with installation.
[01:15] <Giddles> ok
[01:15] <[Saint]> With publicly available code you can't boot from anything other than the sdcard.
[01:15] <[Saint]> You can never not have /boot on the sdcard, and it _must_ always be FAT
[01:15] <Giddles> so i write mate on the card
[01:15] <Giddles> yes i used the software from rpi.org..
[01:16] <[Saint]> You can move /everything that isn't /boot/ elsewhere if you like, but you must boot from the sdcard.
[01:16] <[Saint]> It is somewhat stupid.
[01:16] <Giddles> ah well if you can tell me what i must do i would be happy
[01:18] <Giddles> meanwhile img is working..
[01:18] <Giddles> 12.5mb/s ;)
[01:18] <Giddles> i hope thats normal
[01:19] <[Saint]> move or copy the contents of / to the volume you want to boot from, and then edit /boot/config.txt to reflect the new location of /
[01:19] <[Saint]> change root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 to root=/dev/sdNN where NN is the disk and partition you're mounting / from
[01:20] <Giddles> second second
[01:20] <Giddles> first ill must boot it
[01:20] <Giddles> ill clamp usb direcly in
[01:20] <[Saint]> none of this is ubuntu-specific and is best handled over at #raspberrypi however
[01:21] <hecatae> bluefive, see here http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/03/ubuntu-drops-amd-catalyst-fglrx-driver-16-04
[01:21] <[Saint]> there's really no need to do this from a running system and doing so actually presents rather a lot of caveats.
[01:22] <[Saint]> you should try to avoid having to pivot out to USB / on the raspberrypi itself at all costs if you can (and you can) avoid it.
[01:22] <[Saint]> the process will be a lot faster if done through another machine.
[01:23] <Lock> Is there anyone available to take a question?
[01:24] <DirtyCajun> ask your question dont ask to ask
[01:25] <Lock> Ok, one of my boxes isn't allowing connexctions (ssh) though it's internal ip adress however i can acess it though it's external adress
[01:25] <Lock> any ideas?
[01:26] <[Saint]> Are you positive you're not screwing up the internal address?
[01:26] <Lock> positive
[01:26] <Lock> thats how i was able to forward
[01:27] <[Saint]> your router isn't doing segregation?
[01:27] <[Saint]> like, you're not crossing wired/wireless boundaries? Or is user segregation enabled?
[01:27] <Lock> my other boxes are working fine so i was willing to believe it's just that one
[01:28] <Lock> i can't even ping the box
[01:28] <Lock> but it has acess to the network
[01:28] <Giddles> what is the command to format the hdd with EXT?
[01:28] <Lock> mkfs?
[01:29] <[Saint]> If you do this the "right" way there's no need to format it at all beforehand.
[01:29] <[Saint]> just dd the existing / image to the new volume.
[01:29] <Giddles> well i created an user
[01:29] <Giddles> and crypted my stuff
[01:29] <[Saint]> yes - that's nice - but for what you're wanting to do it isn't really relevant at all.
[01:29] <Giddles> i wanna delete existing what on hdd
[01:30] <Giddles> ok..
[01:30] <Lock> mkfs.ext4
[01:30] <Lock> that will format it
[01:30] <[Saint]> I would just do a straight dd myself, unless you're actually worried about three letter agencies with electron microscopes coming knocking.
[01:30] <Lock> but not in ext
[01:31] <[Saint]> you want one established volume image from disk A, on disk B. No world exists where dd isn;t the right tool for this job.
[01:31] <Giddles> cool he show an icon of the 1000GB volume
[01:32] <Giddles> so howto format it like a pro?
[01:32] <Giddles> :)
[01:32] <Giddles> mkfs.ext4 just in the terminal?
[01:32] <Lock> then the dev location of the drive
[01:32] <Lock> yea
[01:32] <Lock> but use
[01:32] <Lock> parted to make the partition first
[01:32] <Lock> is it a 1tb drive?
[01:32] <Giddles> i dont make any partition actual
[01:33] <Giddles> that i want to do later
[01:33] <Lock> yea do you know the name of the drive you want?
[01:33] <Giddles> no
[01:33] <Giddles> :)
[01:34] <Lock> do you know how gig you drive is>?
[01:34]  * [Saint] tries again:
[01:34] <[Saint]> You should be using dd for this and you have no want or need to format the volume first
[01:34] <Lock> *big
[01:34] <Giddles> ok mr saint
[01:34] <Giddles> i follow what you say
[01:34] <Giddles> so i opened terminal
[01:35] <Giddles> 78217aT8%
[01:35] <Lock> well what is your end goal i only know what you're asking now
[01:35] <Giddles> to boot it from sd and run it on hdd
[01:35] <Giddles> saint told me what i must do
[01:36] <Lock> why noot run on the sd and just mount the hdd?
[01:38] <[Saint]> mount the sdcard with the raspberrypi installation on it on your host and dd the second partition from that to the raw disk you want to use as your new USB root. Edit config.txt on the first partition of the sdcard and change "root=/dev/mmcblk0p2" to "root=/dev/sda1", eject both disks from the host and plug them to the raspberrypi.
[01:38] <[Saint]> After it boots use raspi-config to expand the root partition to the limits of the new disk.
[01:38] <[Saint]> Done.
[01:38] <SCHAAP137> yo
[01:38] <Lock> yo
[01:39] <SCHAAP137> wassup, lock
[01:40] <jose__> alguien que hable español.saludos
[01:40] <Giddles> mate has no raspi-config i guess
[01:42] <Giddles> sudo fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 ..
[01:42] <Giddles> 2, then sudo resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2
[01:43] <Giddles> well first of all i need a free and fresh volume
[01:43] <spyb0y> hey guys
[01:43] <Lock> format it then
[01:44] <jose__> saludos cozmo
[01:47] <jose__> sobres ahi se ven---saludos.
[01:47] <jose__> 5,4,3,2,1,..0
[01:58] <bstrie> does the usual usb installer work with the beta 2 image at http://releases.ubuntu.com/xenial/ ?
[02:00] <duan_> hi
[02:22] <bobby_> hello
[02:32] <DaniKitten> Hello?
[02:33] <Enumaris> Hi I was wondering if anyone here has experience with gummi latex editor and could help me, or could perhaps direct me to the right channel to get support for gummi latex editor related issues?
[02:36] <alex989651> hello aau
[02:36] <alex989651> hello zso
[02:39] <bobby_> how to undervolt cpu ?
[02:39] <bobby_> i fail to install sudo apt-get install linux-generic-phc linux-headers-generic-phc
[02:39] <DaniKitten> Hello
[02:40] <bobby_> and the terminal output Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/voria/ppa/ubuntu/dists/wily/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found
[02:42] <wafflejock> bobby_: you trying to follow instructions here? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UndervoltingHowto
[02:42] <wafflejock> bobby_: says that page was last edited in 2009 so guess is a lot of that isn't going to actually be correct or work, what're you trying to achieve by undervolting?
[02:43] <gr33nbits> big problem after pass changing on 14.04 lts
[02:43] <gr33nbits> so changed my user pass now system takes forever to log and all the GUI settings are messed
[02:45] <gr33nbits> did the change on the sytem definitions not on the terminal
[02:46] <wafflejock> bobby_: my guess is the intel p-state stuff and other newer tech with power-clamp or whatever it's called handles this stuff in most cases you might want to check out thermald if you want to try and adjust that stuff yourself
[02:46] <gr33nbits> ok brb restart
[02:49] <Enumaris> Anybody here familiar with gummi latex editor, or know which channel I should go to for latex help?
[02:51] <gr33nbits> anyone has any idea why themes aren't loading after password changing?
[02:52] <gr33nbits> and system takes much longer to boot
[02:54] <gr33nbits> themes are no longer working, weird stuff
[02:56] <gr33nbits> all GUI is messed up seems not sure if is safe to trow a backup on it
[02:57] <mngrif> i'm having trouble finding the answer to this: does 15.10 support installing (and booting from) a btrfs root?
[02:57] <gr33nbits> this is a big problem if any user goes to system and changes password there, i don't know why i did it should had use terminal
[02:57] <Giddles> hmmm
[02:58] <gr33nbits> means the Ubuntu goes dahhhh after password change
[02:58] <Giddles> whats the demount command in ubuntu?
[02:58] <mngrif> Giddles, umount, same as any other unix-like
[02:58] <gr33nbits> umount
[02:59] <Giddles> worked ;)
[03:09] <shadows_> hi
[03:11] <Gallomimia> i always seem to have trouble getting my 2 displays to work at the same time
[03:11] <Giddles> i cound not rsync my mate content :/
[03:12] <Gallomimia> one is connected via display port, the other via dvi-d. both on the same video card. drivers are up to date. the latter (smaller) monitor seems to take precidence
[03:12] <Giddles> read error no data in the /sys/
[03:12] <Gallomimia> the display port monitor won't stay on due to lack of signal, and the computer doesn't want to detect it
[03:12] <Gallomimia> any ideas?
[03:20] <Giddles> is there another copyoption instead of rsync?
[03:21] <Gallomimia> just cp
[03:21] <Gallomimia> or in the case of between 2 computers, scp
[03:22] <Giddles> damn i need rsync
[03:22] <Giddles> it works with it
[03:22] <Giddles> he starts, now he says target is missing
[03:23] <Gallomimia> remove trailing slash in the target?
[03:23] <Giddles> "rsync -pav bin boot dev etc home lib lost+found media mnt opt root run sbin selinux srv tmp usr var x/"
[03:23] <Giddles> that i wanna do
[03:24] <Gallomimia> no, i don't think you do.
[03:24] <bilboswaggins> ay yo
[03:25] <Giddles> it works perfecz
[03:25] <Giddles> but stops in /sys/
[03:25] <Gallomimia> i think you especially don't want to copy sys run or tmp
[03:25] <Gallomimia> and probably not anything under mnt
[03:25] <Giddles> ok
[03:25] <Gallomimia> of course it fails in sys. that's not a real directory
[03:26] <Gallomimia> MAYBE you want stuff from tmp. but very likely not
[03:27] <Giddles> https://www.carluccio.de/raspberry-pi-root-filesystem-auf-usb-festplatte/ <-- thats my tut
[03:28] <Gallomimia> you know there's a #raspberrypi channel right?
[03:28] <Giddles> ja but its not raspbipian
[03:28] <Gallomimia> also, not much german speakers in here. we got a german channel
[03:30] <Gallomimia> what exactly are you trying to do? because i think you probably should be using dd and not copying files.
[03:41] <RoundDuckMan> Help, I used kazam to make a video, but then it got interrupted after recording, by a shutdown I think (I haven't clicked on anything on the "import to editor or save for editing" prompt that shows after recording), after reboot, there were a bunch of files, one of them was a .movie file. I deleted the others and kept the .movie (SGI video (video/x
[03:41] <RoundDuckMan> -sgi-movie)) file, but while it partially works, but part of the video is gone, as I can't access some of it without just manually watching it, and it stops at point later on in the video in the middle of the video. Is there a way to restore the rest?
[03:41] <Gallomimia> can anyone give me a suggestion on how to get ubuntu unity to detect 2 monitors? it just doesn't want to
[03:42] <RoundDuckMan> button based shutdown that happened as a bug when Steam's on BTW
[03:42] <Gallomimia> i've had this problem plenty before. its worked fine with either one singly. i had it working once but eventually borked it
[03:44] <RoundDuckMan> help?
[03:45] <Gallomimia> sorry i've never used the movies myself
[03:45] <Gallomimia> but i wonder if they can offer help in #gamingonlinux
[03:46] <Gallomimia> AH!
[03:46] <Gallomimia> there goes my dual screens
[03:46] <Gallomimia> odd that. loose wire or something
[03:47] <RoundDuckMan> Gallomimia: How do you get help here... I don't know who to directly ask, even though it seems to be the only way to get attention here... -_-
[03:47] <Gallomimia> you're already on the way
[03:47] <Gallomimia> !ask | RoundDuckMan
[03:47] <RoundDuckMan> I did.
[03:48] <RoundDuckMan> But usually nobody listens until they're pinged.
[03:48] <Giddles> [Saint] are you there?
[03:49] <Giddles> im now at your "dd" point
[03:49] <Giddles> and i cant find something in the boot.txt to connect it to sda1
[03:49] <RoundDuckMan> Giddles: Is there a way to restore a .movie file that came from a failed recording from Kazam?
[03:50] <Giddles> no idea sir
[03:50] <Giddles> i gone made actual :)
[03:52] <gr33nbits> seems i have a problem on /.config/dconf/user since i can't change nothing on the ubuntu gui
[03:52] <gr33nbits> any ideas how can i fix it?
[03:52] <RoundDuckMan> Giddles: What's a good Linux support website or irc channel?
[03:52] <RoundDuckMan> besides askubuntu
[03:52] <gr33nbits> can i rename dconf/user file to user.bak?
[03:53] <gr33nbits> after reboot will it create a new one?
[03:56] <tucemiux> anyone here has tried ubuntu on an dell xps 13?
[03:57] <gr33nbits> can anyone help me fix my system that got messed after a password change?
[03:59] <trism> gr33nbits: yes you can just move it, it will create a new one although all your settings will be reset to default
[04:01] <gr33nbits> trism: settings you mean all the themes/icons and stuff?
[04:02] <sabotagebeats> hello
[04:02] <sabotagebeats> I'm wondering if someone can help me with my ubuntu install
[04:02] <trism> gr33nbits: yes themes, icons, preferences for various apps, anything kept in gsettings
[04:02] <RoundDuckMan> trism: Help, I used kazam to make a video, but then it got interrupted after recording, by a shutdown I think (I haven't clicked on anything on the "import to editor or save for editing" prompt that shows after recording), after reboot, there were a bunch of files, one of them was a .movie file. I deleted the others and kept the .movie (SGI video (
[04:02] <RoundDuckMan> video/x-sgi-movie)) file, but while it partially works, but part of the video is gone, as I can't access some of it without just manually watching it, and it stops at point later on in the video in the middle of the video. Is there a way to restore the rest?
[04:03] <RoundDuckMan> button based shutdown that happened as a bug when Steam's on BTW
[04:04] <gr33nbits> trism: ok thank you i will try that
[04:04] <bluefive> How do I reset the look and feel of my MATE?
[04:04] <RoundDuckMan> trism?
[04:04] <bluefive> I was messing around with some settings and want to go bac kto defaults.
[04:04] <trism> RoundDuckMan: I have no idea
[04:04] <gr33nbits> brb
[04:05] <sabotagebeats> chrome stopped supporting 32 bit ubuntu and so now i'm having issues with my apt-get displaying an error when it tries to update chrome
[04:05] <sabotagebeats> i'd like to update it to a 64 bit os but I've read around the web that this is impossible / horribly difficult
[04:06] <sabotagebeats> in the meantime i'm using firefox and even though i've uninstalled chrome with apt-get I'm still getting the error for the chrome source when I do apt-get upgrade
[04:07] <sabotagebeats> can anyone here help me with these issues?
[04:08] <gr33nbits> trism, it did create a new user file but didn't fixed the problem
[04:09] <gr33nbits> so guess problem is not there
[04:09] <gr33nbits> should i rename all the .config folder?
[04:11] <gr33nbits> like if i look in the unity tweak tool i see that theme is selected just doesn't work and boot takes longer too
[04:11] <gr33nbits> like some file permissions got messed up after i changed user password
[04:12] <gr33nbits> not sure what do do to fix this issue
[04:12] <bluefive> How do I reset the look and feel of my MATE?
[04:12] <bluefive> I was messing around with some settings and want to go bac kto defaults.
[04:14] <sabotagebeats> can anyone help me with updating my 32 bit ubuntu install to a 64 bit install?
[04:15] <memoryfoam> I'm sure there is a very complicated way to upgrade sabotagebeats
[04:15] <memoryfoam> but I'd just wipe and start anew
[04:15] <memoryfoam> make backups obva
[04:16] <sabotagebeats> memoryfoam, what do i need to back up? can i just back up ~/
[04:16] <memoryfoam> the libraries are so different between 32/64 I wouldn't bother upgrading
[04:16] <sabotagebeats> do i need to back up /etc as well?
[04:16] <memoryfoam> backup what you want to save. your pics, docs, browser history
[04:16] <memoryfoam> no
[04:17] <sabotagebeats> everything should be in ~/
[04:17] <memoryfoam> essentially your just putting your documents somewhere safe and then moving them.into your new system
[04:17] <sabotagebeats> ok so ~/ should do it then, there's only one user on this machine
[04:17] <memoryfoam> if you keel old dependencies and libraries you are going to end up with a bad system
[04:19] <sabotagebeats> thanks memoryfoam
[04:19] <bluefive> Is there a way I can configure Ubuntu so that my headphones don't have these white noise when I plug them in?
[04:19] <bluefive> When I plug them into my Windows machine I don't get the white noise.
[04:20] <sabotagebeats> bluefive I don't get white noise when I plug mine in
[04:20] <bluefive> Totally clear even when you turn up the volume with nothing playing?
[04:20] <bluefive> Go from mute to volume on and see.
[04:21] <memoryfoam> try changing the sound profile?
[04:21] <memoryfoam> open pulse audio or whatever you use
[04:22] <memoryfoam> and change hardware profiles. this has helped me
[04:22] <bluefive> I have sound preferences.
[04:22] <bluefive> I need pulse audio?
[04:23] <memoryfoam> I'm not sure if you need it
[04:23] <memoryfoam> but I use it and it is simple and straight forward
[04:24] <sabotagebeats> i think pulseaudio is the default for ubuntu?
[04:24] <sabotagebeats> i think "sound preferences" is just a frontend for pulseaudio
[04:24] <bluefive> What do I do in PulseAudio?
[04:24] <bluefive> I use Ubuntu MATE.
[04:25] <memoryfoam> I'm not sat in front of my comp at the moment but there should be a drop down menu to change profiles in one of the tabs
[04:25] <bluefive> PulseAudio Preferences doesn't show much at all.
[04:25] <memoryfoam> find one that works. maybe one of them might cancel your white noise
[04:25] <memoryfoam> hmmm
[04:26] <sabotagebeats> are you on raspberry pi bluefive or regular pc
[04:26] <memoryfoam> a macbook actually
[04:27] <sabotagebeats> memoryfoam no i'm asking bluefive since they are using mate
[04:27] <bluefive> Regular PC.
[04:27] <memoryfoam> I use mate as well though
[04:28] <sabotagebeats> bluefive and when you boot with windows on that pc there's no white noise?
[04:28] <bluefive> The white noise goes away totally when I mute the master volume.
[04:28] <sabotagebeats> hm
[04:28] <bluefive> No, it's a different PC.
[04:29] <sabotagebeats> are you muting with ubuntu preferences?
[04:29] <bluefive> Yes.
[04:30] <sabotagebeats> bluefive are you able to get sound on top of the white noise or is it only white noise
[04:30] <bluefive> I can get sound fine but it goes on top of the white noise.
[04:31] <sabotagebeats> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2262427 maybe this will help
[04:32] <Gallomimia> sabotagebeats: i've found/heard in general that it's better to do a clean install than do a release upgrade or similar
[04:32] <sabotagebeats> thanks Gallomimia
[04:32] <Gallomimia> it seems odd to me that you have a 32 bit installed. is it very old?
[04:32] <sabotagebeats> Gallomimia, yes it's one of the older computers that will run 64bit
[04:33] <sabotagebeats> bluefive it maybe that you have an input set to forward to the output
[04:33] <sabotagebeats> bluefive have you tried muting the inputs
[04:34] <bluefive> On the input tab in the sound Preferences
[04:34] <bluefive> I ticked Mute
[04:34] <sabotagebeats> did that help
[04:34] <bluefive> No
[04:34] <sabotagebeats> otherwise i'm stumped :/
[04:34] <bluefive> Which sound preference configuration tool do you recommend?
[04:34] <bluefive> Maybe I need a better one.
[04:34] <bluefive> Mine's just called Sound Preferences.
[04:35] <sabotagebeats> sound preferences is just a frontend for pulseaudio
[04:35] <Gallomimia> yep
[04:35] <bluefive> Built in Audio
[04:35] <Gallomimia> i've tried using pacl (command line for pulse)
[04:35] <Gallomimia> but it's complex. there's other gui's
[04:35] <bluefive> I have this set to 1 output, 1 input,
[04:35] <Gallomimia> haven't heard of them yet
[04:35] <bluefive> Analog stereo output
[04:36] <bluefive> Of I mute that the white noise goes away
[04:36] <bluefive> but then I can't hear any sound/music either.
[04:36] <ulot0> join #ubuntu-cn
[04:36] <sabotagebeats> bluefive can you set to 0 input 1 output
[04:37] <sabotagebeats> (obviously for testing purposes since you['ll want to use your input sometime)
[04:37] <bluefive> No. Maybe that's what I need to do.
[04:37] <bluefive> How can I do that?
[04:37] <sabotagebeats> i think it's a setting let me look
[04:37] <bluefive> I don't need any inputs so that's the logical profile.
[04:37] <sabotagebeats> so i have "pulseaudio volume control"
[04:38] <sabotagebeats> and on input devices I can click the dropdown and just click no input
[04:39] <sabotagebeats> but my audio setup is kind of weird because I installed project M visualizer from source before there was an apt package for it
[04:40] <bluefive> What's the diff between analog stereo duplex and analog stereo output?
[04:40] <sabotagebeats> analog stereo duplex is in and out
[04:40] <sabotagebeats> you want analog stereo output
[04:40] <sabotagebeats> duplex means both directions simultaneously like a phone call
[04:40] <bluefive> Built in Audio it says
[04:40] <bluefive> then it says Disabled
[04:40] <sabotagebeats> where you can hear and talk simultaneously
[04:40] <bluefive> Then Analog Stereo Output
[04:41] <bluefive> What's disabled there mean?
[04:41] <trento_fan> analog stereo output is only usb, not built in speakers, right?
[04:41] <sabotagebeats> you have analog stereo output disabled?
[04:41] <sabotagebeats> no analog stereo output is the 1/8th inch jack / built in speakers
[04:41] <bluefive> Says Built in Audio
[04:41] <bluefive> then next line Disabled
[04:41] <sabotagebeats> which tab are you on bluefive
[04:41] <bluefive> Then next line Analog Stereo Output
[04:41] <bluefive> This is in the Hardware tab
[04:42] <user5555> omg so now my system lost my root password
[04:42] <bluefive> below that selection it says Built in Audio
[04:42] <sabotagebeats> bluefive in pulseaudio volume control i have tabs for input and out put
[04:42] <bluefive> Next line says 1 output, 1 input
[04:42] <bluefive> then it says on the next line Off
[04:42] <sabotagebeats> in the input tab  you want to say disable and then in the output tab you want to say enable analog stereo output
[04:42] <bluefive> Yes, but I'm in the Hardware tab now
[04:42] <sabotagebeats> and hopefully that will resolve your issue for now
[04:43] <sabotagebeats> oh hold on
[04:43] <sabotagebeats> were you able to select analog stereo output instead of analog stereo duplex
[04:43] <bluefive> Input tab it says Choose a device and I chose Monitor of Built-In Analog Stereo
[04:43] <bluefive> but I have it muted.
[04:43] <trento_fan> open a yt vid click play & 'play' with pulse
[04:43] <sabotagebeats> on input say "off"
[04:43] <bluefive> Yes, I selected analog stereo output.
[04:44] <user5555> fak don't tell me i need to install Ubuntu again cause i changed user password an system went blehhhh
[04:44] <sabotagebeats> ok that's good
[04:44] <bluefive> No option for Off on the input tab.
[04:44] <bluefive> Just mute
[04:44] <sabotagebeats> you're right bluefive i just noticed that
[04:44] <sabotagebeats> mute the input
[04:44] <sabotagebeats> also do you have a "recording" tab?
[04:44] <bluefive> No recording tab
[04:45] <sabotagebeats> ok
[04:45] <sabotagebeats> so you have the input muted
[04:45] <sabotagebeats> you have analog stereo output selected (not duplex)
[04:45] <sabotagebeats> and then you're still getting white noise when you unmute the output?
[04:45] <superguest> how do I check the currently installed version of util-linux on the command line?
[04:45] <superguest> (I am using 14.10)
[04:46] <sabotagebeats> superguest i think "uname"
[04:46] <sabotagebeats> sorry "uname -a"
[04:46] <superguest> util-linux is a package, my friend.
[04:46] <sabotagebeats> oh sorry my noob is showing :P
[04:47] <bluefive> sabotagebeats, Yes
[04:47] <user5555> so my root password doesn't work anymore means i can't do nothing to gain access on machine again
[04:47] <user5555> ?
[04:47] <superguest> user5555, try sudo su
[04:47] <trento_fan> or su ;)
[04:48] <user5555> problem is that i changed password on system settings then on command line and after i took the need from password on login
[04:48] <user5555> now root doesn't work
[04:48] <sabotagebeats> user5555 single user mode bootup doesn't work?
[04:49] <user5555> im logged in
[04:49] <user5555> but now neither the old or new password work
[04:49] <user5555> root password i mean
[04:49] <sabotagebeats> i think you can reset the password from single user mode
[04:50] <user5555> how can i do that sabotagebeats
[04:50] <sabotagebeats> http://askubuntu.com/questions/24006/how-do-i-reset-a-lost-administrative-password user5555
[04:51] <user5555> thank you very much sabotagebeats i will do that and after try to deal with this GUI bug
[04:51] <sabotagebeats> user5555, you boot into recovery mode and drop to a root shell prompt and follow the article from there
[04:51] <sabotagebeats> cool good luck user5555
[04:51] <user5555> thanks a buch
[04:53] <sabotagebeats> bluefive you could also try messing around with alsa but you also might be wasting time mucking around in there since i would think it's something simple
[04:55] <sabotagebeats> bluefive pulseaudio is the default ubuntu sound manager but you could use alsa instead or jackd instead (both are more complicated)
[04:55] <bluefive> Which do you recommend?
[04:56] <sabotagebeats> jackd is very complicated but flexib le
[04:56] <sabotagebeats> alsa is more simple but works good
[04:56] <bluefive> How to use alsa?
[04:56] <bluefive> It's installed somewhere.
[04:57] <bluefive> It has a GUI?
[04:57] <sabotagebeats> bluefive i think you just "sudo apt-get install alsa alsamixer"
[04:57] <sabotagebeats> yes it has a gui
[04:57] <sabotagebeats> alsamixer is your gui
[04:58] <sabotagebeats> it's a term gui
[04:59] <sabotagebeats> but tbh i think we might be overthinking the issue are you sure that in pulseaudio there is no setting that says "digital audio output" turned on? that will give you a white noise for sure
[04:59] <bluefive> Where do I find Alsa Mixer?
[04:59] <bluefive> I don't see it anyway.
[04:59] <sabotagebeats> bluefive pop open terminal and type alsamixer
[04:59] <sabotagebeats> it is a terminal gui
[05:00] <bluefive> Digital audio output will give me white noise?
[05:00] <bluefive> Yes, I have it turned on.
[05:00] <sabotagebeats> bluefive yes
[05:00] <sabotagebeats> turn it off
[05:00] <bluefive> How?
[05:00] <sabotagebeats> well, in pulseaudio when you select stereo analog output it should turn off digital output
[05:00] <bluefive> Oh, no I don't have any option for digital output.
[05:01] <bluefive> Just analog output.
[05:01] <bluefive> Digital (HDMI) is off.
[05:01] <Rave1> for Alsa there is also Gnome alsa-mixer (a gui interface) for pulse there is pavucontrol
[05:01] <sabotagebeats> thanks Rave1
[05:01] <sabotagebeats> pavucontrol is good
[05:02] <bluefive> I installed alsa mixer gnome
[05:02] <bluefive> but now where do I find it?
[05:02] <sabotagebeats> alsa mixer gnome should be in with your other programs (on my version i click activities and start typing and it comes up with my programs)
[05:03] <sabotagebeats> Rave1, do you have any help to offer here with white noise on the analog output with pulseaudio?
[05:03] <sabotagebeats> Rave1, we already tried changing the profile to analog stereo out
[05:03] <gr33nbits> sabotagebeats, fixed the password and after that already been able to fix the GUI issue
[05:04] <gr33nbits> thanks again for the root passwd tip
[05:04] <sabotagebeats> no problem gr33nbits i'm glad I could be of some help :D
[05:04] <Rave1> sabotagebeats,  have you searched for issues with your exact sound card?
[05:04] <sabotagebeats> Rave1, it's bluefive's soundcard
[05:04] <gr33nbits> ^^
[05:04] <Rave1> oh  oops
[05:05] <sabotagebeats> Rave1, I was trying to support him but I'm starting to be at a loss and I don't want to go down the alsa rabbit hole if we can help it
[05:05] <bluefive> What is PCM in GNOME ALSA?
[05:05] <bluefive> How do I restore defaults? I messed with PCM.
[05:05] <sabotagebeats> bluefive PCM is pulse code modulation, it's the way soundcards produce analog output
[05:06] <Rave1> try all the pulse settings first with pavucontrol
[05:06] <bluefive> Need to put PCM back to default
[05:06] <ulot0> join #ubuntu-cn
[05:06] <Rave1> bluefive,   have you searched for issues with your card
[05:07] <ulot0> join #ubuntu-cn
[05:07] <ulot0> --help
[05:07] <sabotagebeats> Rave1, we have tried muting the input (to resolve any feedback loop) and we tried setting the profile in pavucontrol to "analog stereo output"
[05:07] <bluefive> ravelIt's a good realtek card.
[05:07] <bluefive> But first things first
[05:07] <bluefive> I need to restore PCM to defaults.
[05:08] <bluefive> How do I do that?
[05:08] <Rave1> good realtech?? it took me a week to fix mine  LOL
[05:08] <ulot0> help me ,How to query the default editor for ubuntu14.04?
[05:08] <bluefive> Where do I find the PAUVUcontrol?
[05:08] <bluefive> I installed it.
[05:09] <lotuspsychje> ulot0: gedit you looking for?
[05:09] <bluefive> The problem seems to be this
[05:09] <sabotagebeats> bluefive it is also called pavucontrol is "pulse audio volume control" gui app
[05:09] <bluefive> It keeps going back to 1 output, 1 input
[05:09] <bluefive> even after I set it to output only
[05:09] <Rave1> bluefive,  type in terminal if it hasnt given you a menu item
[05:09] <ulot0> lotuspsychje, thanks
[05:09] <sabotagebeats> ^^
[05:09] <sabotagebeats> there's also a way to release all alsa to pulseaudio
[05:10] <sabotagebeats> let me google for a sec
[05:10] <bluefive> Also I need to reset the PCM
[05:10] <bluefive> can you help me with that?
[05:11] <sabotagebeats> bluefive if you can release from alsa you won't need to reset the pcm http://tuxradar.com/files/LXF130.audio.layers.png
[05:12] <sabotagebeats> that image kind of annoys me because I could never get ffado to work lol
[05:12] <sabotagebeats> but it's a good explanation of the way audio works in linux
[05:13] <bluefive> What do you mean RELEASE from ALSA?
[05:13] <bluefive> How do I do that?
[05:13] <sabotagebeats> i'm trying to find it right now I haven't done it in about 2 years :)
[05:14] <bluefive> Release from ALSA = reset?
[05:14] <sabotagebeats> bluefive there's a command to do it i'm looking for it
[05:17] <sabotagebeats> bluefive: further reading http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Asoundrc
[05:17] <bluefive> So how to reset alsa?
[05:18] <sabotagebeats> can anyone else vouch for deleting the asoundrc config file to reset alsa?
[05:18] <bluefive> I should not have been tinkering with the PCM in Alsa.
[05:18] <mojtaba> Keepass2 does not work and when I execute it, a window will suddenly open and close. Do you know how can I fix it? http://paste.ubuntu.com/15478309/
[05:18] <sabotagebeats> i don't want to point bluefive into a hole
[05:18] <lotuspsychje> mojtaba: maybe you should file a bug for this
[05:19] <bluefive> shouldn't it be trivial to reset alsa?
[05:19] <sabotagebeats> bluefive did you do that in alsamixer?
[05:19] <sabotagebeats> bluefive it should be :P
[05:19] <bluefive> yes, I changed the PCM in alsa mixer.
[05:19] <mojtaba> lotuspsychje: ok, thanks
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> !bug | mojtaba
[05:19] <sabotagebeats> bluefive what did you change in pcm
[05:19] <bluefive> I changed the sliders
[05:20] <sabotagebeats> bluefive if you changed the amount you should be able to just go back in and turn it back up :)
[05:20] <RoundDuckMann> Can anybody help me? https://askubuntu.com/questions/750272/how-to-restore-files-of-failed-kazam-video
[05:21] <fe34r3> attempting to install ubuntu, ubuntu is already is installed on an external HD. I prioritized the hard drive in my BIOS but ubuntu never loads. What am I doing wrong?
[05:21] <bluefive> Wow.
[05:21] <bluefive> It's fixed.
[05:21] <sabotagebeats> yay!
[05:21] <bluefive> It really went away.
[05:22] <sabotagebeats> bluefive, magical
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> !cookie | sabotagebeats
[05:22] <RoundDuckMann> Can anybody help me? https://askubuntu.com/questions/750272/how-to-restore-files-of-failed-kazam-video Please!!!!
[05:22] <sabotagebeats> thanks lotuspsychje
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> !patience | RoundDuckMann
[05:22] <sabotagebeats> i actually just came in here to get help :P
[05:22] <bluefive> I don't even know what I did. But I reloaded Alsa and then I unloaded the HDMI components for my Broadwell Intel. But then I enabled them back and that didn't seem to do anything.
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> sabotagebeats: re-ask mate :p
[05:22] <bluefive> I think what fixed it was reloading Alsa?
[05:23] <bluefive> Amazing.
[05:23] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje, i actually already got my help I was wondering if there's an ez way to install 64 bit ubuntu over 32 bit without destroying everything and everyone said yes but it's easier to just reinstall
[05:23] <bluefive> What do you think was causing the white noise?
[05:23] <sabotagebeats> bluefive, I think maybe input routed through alsa? not sure :)
[05:23] <lotuspsychje> sabotagebeats: reinstall ubuntu on architectures
[05:23] <RoundDuckMann> lotuspsychje: Well it's been quite a while, I've tried to ask eariler, with no help. :/
[05:23] <bluefive> sabotagebeats, So reloading Alsa probably fixed it somehow?
[05:23] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: maybe if you tell us the full story?
[05:24] <bluefive> sudo alsa force-reload
[05:24] <bluefive> that's what I typed.
[05:24] <bluefive> Does that reset everything?
[05:24] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: uefi machine?
[05:24] <sabotagebeats> nice! honestly I've never used that command bluefive I just learned from you :)
[05:24] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: you want to keep ubuntu installed on your external hd, or internal?
[05:25] <fe34r3> Yes uefi machine.
[05:25] <bluefive> sabotagebeats, About the PCM, the issue is that I wouldn't know how to set the sliders just like before.
[05:25] <fe34r3> I want it on my external HD.
[05:25] <bluefive> But the alsa force-reload seems to have put them back to defaults?
[05:25] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: thats not recommended over usb, it will bottleneck you
[05:25] <sabotagebeats> awesome I'm going to have to try that next time i'm having trouble with alsa bluefive
[05:25] <bluefive> Amazing. I thought I was going to have that white noise forever, that it was an issue with the hardware itself.
[05:26] <fe34r3> I was told to reinstall ubuntu on the HD after coming across another bottleneck error, and because I used wubi.
[05:26] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje, thanks for your help i'm going to google that phrase
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: we would recommend you install ubuntu on your physical internal hd
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> sabotagebeats: google? i just saying best to reinstall fresh
[05:27] <sabotagebeats> oh yes that's the answer most people gave me
[05:27] <fe34r3> I would rather not get it on my internal HD. Is there any way I can continue the process on my external HD?
[05:27] <sabotagebeats> :)
[05:27] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje, I am planning to back up homedir and then reload into new fresh install
[05:27] <fe34r3> I'm stuck on step 2 of the installation process.
[05:27] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: will you like a slow Os over usb?
[05:27] <fe34r3> Keeping it on an external HD would make it slower? I can install it on my USB too.
[05:28] <lotuspsychje> sabotagebeats: a new install can preserve your /home aswell in the setup
[05:28] <fe34r3> Anything to not get it on my internal HD.
[05:28] <lotuspsychje> sabotagebeats: but more recommended to keep your data safe, external :p
[05:28] <RoundDuckMann> lotuspsychje: Basically, after being OCD by pressing the power button while recording, a prompt to shut down popped up. I exited out of it, and pressed again, nothing happened, but I clicked on the power button that appears on the upper right menu (Gnome 3.16) and it shutted off immediately after, borking my recording. in the next boot, left over f
[05:28] <RoundDuckMann> iles were left, and I deleted all but one .movie file, because I thought it worked. One day when I decided to watch it though, the video would cut out in the middle of the super long video, and now I'm panicking here. :P
[05:28] <bluefive> Wait a second.
[05:28] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje, thanks I figured as much :)
[05:28] <askb> Hi, is anyone familiar with any difference with grub2 menuentry in ubuntu and debian ?
[05:28] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: so you still got the movie file, borked?
[05:28] <bluefive> It didn't fix it! What happened is that it made it so that the volume control with Pulse on the taskbar when I turned it off fully, the volume was still on
[05:29] <bluefive> so the white noise wasn't going away because the volume somewhere else was still on!
[05:29] <lotuspsychje> !grub | askb
[05:29] <RoundDuckMann> lotuspsychje: yes.
[05:29] <sabotagebeats> bluefive, sorry I'm confused can you restate that again in another way :)
[05:29] <bluefive> I have tinnitus so I figured it was my tinnitus. But when I fully mute the system volume then it goes quiet.
[05:29] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: did you try play it with vlc?
[05:29] <RoundDuckMann> yes, and totem (Gnome Videos)
[05:29] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: in some cases vlc tries to play broken video files
[05:30] <sabotagebeats> oh ok i get you now bluefive
[05:30] <sabotagebeats> bluefive, i think you might have a hardware issue is this a realtek USB card?
[05:30] <askb> lotuspsychje, Hi, I am looking for some info, sorry not very familar with grub2, how root=UUID entry gets adds in debian and ubuntu
[05:30] <sabotagebeats> can you try a different port or a powered usb hub bluefive
[05:30] <bluefive> Anyway, the white noise got quieter. That's what happened.
[05:30] <bluefive> My headphones are plugged into the headphone jack.
[05:30] <lotuspsychje> !uuid | askb
[05:31] <askb> lotuspsychje, i think there are some diffirences
[05:31] <sabotagebeats> hmmm
[05:31] <bluefive> You mean plugging them into a powered USB hub?
[05:31] <sabotagebeats> bluefive is this a usb sound card
[05:31] <sabotagebeats> bluefive have you tried turning down the audio in pulseaudio and turning it up in alsa
[05:31] <RoundDuckMann> lotuspsychje: Is there a way to fix it, I can only see 1 hr and 20-something minutes of the 4 hr video.
[05:31] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: there is also a #kazam channel if you like
[05:31] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje, you're very helpful :)
[05:32] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: think your video is broken mate
[05:32] <sabotagebeats> !cookie | lotuspsychje
[05:32] <lotuspsychje> sabotagebeats: thank you, thats what we here for :p
[05:32] <fe34r3> This is what I've done, I downloaded 14.04 ubuntu and then burned the ISO to an external hard drive. I went into BIOS and prioritized the hard drive for the booting process as well as switched the bios to Legacy. From there I saved the configuration and rebooted, but ubuntu doesn't show up in the list of OS's to choose from, and so windows loads ag
[05:32] <fe34r3> ain.
[05:33] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: wich tool did you burn it with?
[05:33] <fe34r3> Universal usb
[05:33] <sabotagebeats> fe34r3, for my computer I need to get to the boot menu and then choose the usb drive each time
[05:33] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: ok good
[05:34] <RoundDuckMann> lotuspsychje: F****************************************************************************************K!!@#$!@#$##@$%!#@%#@!@!#!!!!!!!!??!!!
[05:34] <RoundDuckMann> DX
[05:34] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: the problem is you want a persistent ubuntu on your external, so burn an ubuntu iso on an usb stick, then target your external hd as install medium
[05:35] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: dont do that please
[05:35] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje, fe34r3 i agree with this
[05:35] <fe34r3> how do i do that?
[05:35] <bluefive> sabotagebeats, It's not a USB sound card.
[05:35] <bluefive> It's a RealTek. The unit is an MSI CUBI.
[05:35] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: i dont recommend it mate, your ubuntu will be slow and bottleneck you
[05:35] <sabotagebeats> ok bluefive were u able to turn down pulseaudio and then turn up the alsa and did that make the white noise go away
[05:36] <bluefive> I disabled the sound on the Taskbar. What makes the white noise go away is when I mute the Output in Pulse.
[05:36] <titanium17_> guys, will reinstalling my kernel affect any programs/data I have on my pc now?
[05:36] <sabotagebeats> bluefive, can you still use alsa when pulse is muted
[05:36] <bluefive> Disabling the sound on the taskbar totally, I have that muted
[05:36] <fe34r3> Why would it be slow?
[05:36] <RoundDuckMann> lotuspsychje: Sorry, it's just the video I made that recorded me doing lots of things like downloading Sophos.  But not when I hit Mute inside Pulse to disable the output.
[05:36] <sabotagebeats> fe34r3, because it's running over usb which is slower :)
[05:36] <bluefive> Only when I mute it on the taskbar.
[05:36] <titanium17_> I have an issue where the wifi keeps disconnecting frequently, and turning the wifi off/on freezes the entire pc. I am running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
[05:37] <fe34r3> Why not do it the other way then?
[05:37] <sabotagebeats> bluefive, when you mute on the taskbar alsa still will play sound without the white noise?
[05:37] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: its not recommended to record hours with kazam...
[05:37] <bluefive> Yes, but it the white noise only goes away fully when I put the output inside Pulse.
[05:37] <bluefive> If I just mute it on the taskbar it's still there.
[05:37] <fe34r3> And run it over the external HD.
[05:37] <fe34r3> How do I target a device as an installation medium?
[05:37] <RoundDuckMann> Do I have to reinstall Ubuntu just in case it might have crap in it?
[05:38] <lotuspsychje> !uefi | fe34r3
[05:38] <sabotagebeats> fe34r3, if you are on uefi that's a completely different animal than bios, on my uefi machine I have to reboot each time by holding shift while selecting reboot from windows or it will not boot into the usb drive
[05:38] <lotuspsychje> fe34r3: best scenario out of this, is inserting another hd internal in your pc, and dualboot ubuntu with your existing Os
[05:39] <elh9> hello
[05:39] <sabotagebeats> hello
[05:39] <gr33nbits> heias elh9
[05:39] <fe34r3> OK I'm not on a uefi.
[05:39] <sabotagebeats> bluefive when you mute in pulseaudio does it mute alsa
[05:39] <lotuspsychje> titanium17_: wifi chipset?
[05:40] <bluefive> sabotagebeats, Only when I explicitly mute the Output in Pulse.  When I just mute the taskbar icon for Pulse, the system still has output sound.
[05:40] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: no, i just think your file is borked man, 4 hours recording must have been big load for kazam, and not encoding it correctly
[05:40] <sabotagebeats> bluefive but when you specifically mute the output in pulse you can still hear your sounds through alsa?
[05:40] <bluefive> No
[05:40] <bluefive> That takes all sound away.
[05:41] <sabotagebeats> :(
[05:41] <bluefive> But right now I have Pulse muted on the taskbar icon
[05:41] <bluefive> and I still have sound
[05:41] <sabotagebeats> bluefive but you also still have white noise?
[05:41] <RoundDuckMann> lotuspsychje: Do I have to reinstall Ubuntu just in case it might have crap in it? I know I most likely got Sophos from the official website, but Linux malware is getting more common.
[05:41] <sabotagebeats> RoundDuckMann, linux malware is pretty rare
[05:41] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: what has malware to do with your kazam video?
[05:42] <elh9> i just enabled VT-d on my motherboard, (was only enabled on cpu before), and ubuntu server won't boot - has trouble identifying the ata devices that are mounted during boot, when i disabled it, ubuntu starts normally, anyone familair with this?
[05:42] <RoundDuckMann> lotuspsychje: I installed Sophos in the video.
[05:42] <RoundDuckMann> I use them like logs.
[05:42] <titanium17_> lotuspsychje, http://pastebin.com/uYXVdjRT
[05:42] <titanium17_> lotuspsychje, that was some bits of the output when I run lshw command
[05:43] <lotuspsychje> titanium17_: didnt we have this conversation before? you was the guy with the git driver?
[05:43] <RoundDuckMann> them as in videos
[05:44] <lotuspsychje> elh9: maybe the #ubuntu-server guys might know this?
[05:44] <elh9> ah ok thanks lotuspsychje
[05:44] <gr33nbits> RoundDuckMann, don't worry about malware on Ubuntu
[05:45] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje, do you know how to make 32 bit chrome stop breaking my apt-get upgrade?
[05:45] <titanium17_> lotuspsychje, I had this issue before, but never solved it. We spoke previously about ISO and UCK I think :)
[05:46] <lotuspsychje> !chrome-repo | sabotagebeats
[05:46] <RoundDuckMann> gr33nbits: But I gave a third party script root permission to install, I deleted it later, but I'm still worried now that it was malware and could've left in malicious bits in.
[05:46] <RoundDuckMann> Even though most likely I got it from Sophos.
[05:46] <gr33nbits> RoundDuckMann, oh if you not sure about that 3rd party then i guess
[05:47] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje,  sed: can't read /opt/google/chrome/cron/google-chrome: No such file or directory
[05:47] <titanium17_> lotuspsychje, my kernel version is 3.19.0-56-generic
[05:47] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje, i've already apt-get remove google-chrome-stable but the apt-source still gives me errors
[05:47] <lotuspsychje> titanium17_: i recommend a fresh install with cable + updates during setup, see if your wifi gets detected by default
[05:48] <titanium17_> lotuspsychje, I just sank a few weeks setting this up :( A fresh install would kill me
[05:48] <titanium17_> I am a linux/i3/emacs noob
[05:49] <RoundDuckMann> gr33nbits: Wow, there goes my confidence... Is there a way to scan Ubuntu later on? Maybe can I use live USB for scanning?
[05:49] <lotuspsychje> titanium17_: if the default ubuntu driver doesnt not perform well= bug
[05:49] <lotuspsychje> titanium17_: think you messed up with that git too much
[05:49] <titanium17_> lotuspsychje, I have not installed any wireless driver manually
[05:50] <gr33nbits> RoundDuckMann, yes you can scan the machine with clamav
[05:50] <sabotagebeats> lotuspsychje, i did apt-get purge google-chrome-stable and now it fixed it!!
[05:50] <sabotagebeats> !cookie | lotuspsychje
[05:50] <lotuspsychje> !yay | sabotagebeats
[05:50] <RoundDuckMann> gr33nbits: clamav only scans Windows viruses, I think.
[05:51] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: wrong
[05:51] <gr33nbits> RoundDuckMann, no you wrong
[05:51] <RoundDuckMann> That's what it said on Wikipedia, though maybe it hasn't been updated recently.
[05:51] <lotuspsychje> RoundDuckMann: clamav has a pretty good updated database with linux viruses etc
[05:52] <RoundDuckMann> ok.
[05:52] <gr33nbits> and it's built in you don't even need to add repository

[06:04] <independiente> hello
[06:04] <titanium17> lotuspsychje, I followed the first answer here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/730430/wifi-connection-keeps-dropping-in-ubuntu-15-10-rtl8821ae/732039
[06:05] <titanium17> lotuspsychje, I no longer freeze when I turn wifi on/off using the "fn" key on my laptop. Just tried it 2-3 times. Now I have to just see if the connection is stable
[06:06] <titanium17> lotuspsychje, thanks for all the help!! On behalf of everyone that is getting help here :)
[06:06] <lotuspsychje> titanium17: not really recommended to install external ppa's, i would go for a regular bug
[06:06] <titanium17> lotuspsychje, by regular bug, do you mean a clean install?
[06:07] <lotuspsychje> titanium17: no i mean if ubuntu drivers dont perform well by default, you will help the community by bug it
[06:07] <independiente> alguien habla español
[06:07] <lotuspsychje> !es | independiente
[06:07] <titanium17> lotuspsychje, oh thanks! Ill report the bug and use this driver temporarily then! Thanks for the heads up!
[06:08] <lotuspsychje> titanium17: cheers
[06:09] <james> hello
[06:10] <est689> lotuspsychje, theres no ubuntu folder inside each of the source, so it cant install dkms such what it provide from the linux-source*.deb. is there any other way to install dkms easily without git-ing the whole big dkms source...? 😊
[06:11] <lotuspsychje> est689: can you tell us whats your end goal is with this?
[06:12] <est689> recompile a smaller kernel with dkms driver such as nvidia graphic driver
[06:17] <lotuspsychje> est689: and you want this why?
[06:22] <elh9> with UUID mounting in fstab, will the UUID stay the same when changing a drive to another sata controller on the motherboard?
[06:22] <est689> to remove unnecessery code
[06:24] <Jordan_U> elh9: Yes. UUIDs are part of the filesystem, a number randomly generated and stored at mkfs time.
[06:24] <bluefive> When I go into ALSA mixer
[06:24] <bluefive> it says Intel Boardwell HDMI
[06:24] <bluefive> and there are 3 things to tick

[06:25] <bluefive> What happens if I untick all 3?
[06:28] <elh9> can anyone recommend an 8 port SATA/SAS PCIe card (without RAID support) or an irc channel to ask in?

[07:04] <unicornjedi> cicero, hello sir. I just have a quick question about cron.. basically I want to run "xrandr --brightness 1.0" in the daytime and "xrandr --brightness 0.7" at night
[07:05] <dax> sounds like what you actually want is to install redshift, tbh
[07:05] <unicornjedi> dax, im using openelec :/ it doesnt have redshift unfortunately :(
[07:05] <unicornjedi> or soo... i think
[07:05] <dax> #ubuntu only does support for Ubuntu and official derivatives.
[07:06] <unicornjedi> dax, ... im asking about cron fool
[07:06] <dax> but, on the off-chance it uses Ubuntu's repositories, redshift is in there. but yeah, should ask them
[07:06] <dax> unicornjedi: you're asking about cron on a distro that we don't support. go talk to your distro's support channel
[07:06] <unicornjedi> i like to check here first though, because openelec and kodi support channels are usually dead
[07:07] <dax> or ##linux, if you think this is "general linux advice"
[07:07] <dax> sigh

I've rewritten my ubuntu iso to an external hard drive and attempted to boot from it but my system doesn't recognize ubuntu as another OS. using windows 10, 64 bit 8gb of ram, the hard drive I'm attempting to install is 123GB. I partitioned my internal HD to 200 GBs of unallocated space. Now my computer doesn't rec
[07:38] <fe34r3> ognize the drive at all. What am I doing wrong?
[07:40] <greenbug> fe34r3: can you give me some details? how did you write the ubuntu iso to the hard drive?
[07:40] <fe34r3> With universal usb installer
[07:41] <fe34r3> What other details do you need?
[07:42] <greenbug> how about the system you're trying to boot from? how old is it? have you had success booting from usb devices in the past?
[07:42] <stacy-> can somebody show me how to add the directory path show in an utunbu shell
[07:42] <fe34r3> windows 10. bought it 4 days ago. And I've been trying to install ubuntu for 2 days now, so not much success.
[07:43] <greenbug> fe34r3: I'm guessing its a laptop. did you access its boot menu or bios menu?
[07:43] <fe34r3> It's a desktop, and I accessed the BIOS.
[07:44] <stacy-> is there a simple command to make the path show in the shell prompt in ubuntu?
[07:44] <bluefive> Can't get rid of this fecking white noise.
[07:44] <bluefive> Any helpers?
[07:44] <greenbug> stacy-: hopefully this can help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizingBashPrompt
[07:44] <fe34r3> I prioritized the external HD for the booting process several times, but it doesn't boot ubuntu unless I select the drive for temporary booting now. When I first started, it gave me the option for choosing between windows and Ubuntu for OS at the startup screen.
[07:45] <fe34r3> And when I do get to the ubuntu boot screen, it sends me right back to windows.
[07:46] <stacy-> greenbug.. i remember it use to be a simple command i typed in redhat to get that prompt
[07:47] <greenbug> fe34r3: so you can get the grub screen, which lists options like try/install ubuntu, memory test, etc?
[07:47] <fe34r3> Yeah, but after i select something, it sends me back to windows.
[07:48] <greenbug> stacy-: I don't know that much about bash and shells and things. I would recommend reading `man bash` tho
[07:48] <greenbug> thats what the help.ubuntu.com article mentioned.
[07:49] <stacy-> greenbug.. which type do you use for your shell?
[07:50] <greenbug> stacy-: I'm not even sure haha, the default for xubuntu 14.04 I guess
[07:51] <greenbug> you can always print the current directory with `pwd`
[07:52] <stacy-> by the way how do i get back to the ~ location in  the shell
[07:52] <greenbug> stacy-: the change directory command, `cd ~`
[07:52] <stacy-> thanks
[07:53] <greenbug> fe34r3: If I were in your position, I would try disconnecting the HDD with windows 10, so it can only boot from ubuntu, just to troubleshoot

[08:08] <GnsP> stacy- I think you wont need super user privileges to edit .bashrc
[08:10] <GnsP> the .bashrc file stays in your home directory, so as long as you are the owner of the file, you dont need to be the superuser to edit that.
[08:10] <stacy-> thanks gnsp
[08:11] <GnsP> welcome
[08:11] <EriC^^> !md5sum fe34r3
[08:11] <EriC^^> !md5sum | fe34r3
[08:11] <amar> is it safe to update mesa on ubuntu 14.04
[08:11] <stacy-> is there a language software i can use to switch between another language or using ibus for all ?
[08:13] <lotuspsychje> amar: its recommended to use ubuntu update, for all packages
[08:13] <amar> can we use obilaf ppa
[08:13] <lotuspsychje> amar: we dont support external ppa's here, so use at own risk
[08:13] <amar> thnx
[08:14] <stacy-> what is the key for super+space?
[08:15] <lotuspsychje> !hotkeys | stacy-
[08:16] <GnsP> stacy- , well I think that depends on the language. As for my native language the support level is low. So I had to write my own unicode editor in JS to run on browser
[08:17] <stacy-> gsnp..what is the super key for a laptop?
[08:17] <EriC^^> the win key
[08:20] <stacy-> eric.. do i have to install the language pack for the keyboard to show?
[08:20] <Mathisen> Morning! any one else had trouble with Acer laptop,, it refuses to wake upp again when when i had left it alone for 2 hours + ...
[08:21] <Mathisen> so my only alternative is to power off and then on again
[08:27] <greiner> hello
[08:27] <marut> hi
[08:33] <squintskii> hi
[08:33] <squintskii> ubuntu liveUSB hangs at a totally black screen the instant i choose to boot from the live environment or to install
[08:33] <squintskii> can someone help figure out why?
[08:33] <GnsP> @stacy- , for a laptop the super key is different for different keyboard layouts. For a windows keyboard, the key with a windows symbol is the super key.
[08:34] <EriC^^> !nomodeset | squintskii
[08:34] <stacy-> i tried to do a umake in ubuntu.. is there a way to see if the directory is made?/.local/share/umake/android/android-studio
[08:34] <EriC^^> stacy-: umake?
[08:34] <squintskii> EriC^^, so that's whats happening with my 980Ti?
[08:34] <stacy-> eric .. umake android
[08:35] <EriC^^> squintskii: can't really tell
[08:35] <stacy-> after entering that my system was running for hour..but i pressed the ctrl by mistake
[08:35] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: ubuntu version and driver version?
[08:35] <EriC^^> stacy-: ls -ld ~/.local/share/umake/android/android-studio
[08:36] <squintskii> lotuspsychje, i cant even install the thing, so i have no idea about drivers, its 15.10 x64
[08:36] <EriC^^> shows if a directory is there or not
[08:36] <GnsP> well, umake is for android development, right ?
[08:36] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: i would go for the physical install + connected with cable + updates during setup
[08:37] <squintskii> lotuspsychje, i.... cant even load the installer
[08:37] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: you dont see the purple ubuntu setup screen?
[08:37] <squintskii> no
[08:37] <stacy-> it says to such file or directory
[08:37] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: how did you create your usb?
[08:37] <squintskii> lotuspsychje, rufus
[08:38] <squintskii> lotuspsychje, i get a menu asking whether i want to install or run live USB, i choose either one and instant black screen
[08:38] <squintskii> the liveusb boots in a virtual machine
[08:38] <squintskii> so the stick is fine
[08:38] <lotuspsychje> ok
[08:38] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: try the nomodeset as EriC^^ suggested to get in
[08:38] <stacy-> does this mean /.local is a encripted directory?
[08:39] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: or maybe also try a 16.04 daily to test
[08:39] <squintskii> you would think, for an issue that apparently has persisted since 2010, that the devs would figure out a way to prevent this issue entirely
[08:39] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: we need to investigate this first, to make sure whats going on
[08:39] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: every system reacts different
[08:40] <GnsP> ~/.local is encrypted if your home directory is encrypted. Otherwise it's a normal directory
[08:40] <squintskii> lotuspsychje, which is a problem, considering i've never once heard of a windows installer failing to boot because of some obscure graphics issue that only happens some of the time on some nvidia gpus
[08:40] <squintskii> so why does ubuntu have the issue?
[08:40] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: you can only speak for your case, we have users with your same card running ubuntu fine
[08:41] <stacy-> gnsp... after doong a uname android..i could not get to the androd-studio directory
[08:41] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: your system is uefi? singleboot, dualboot?
[08:41] <squintskii> that's the thing, every system with a haswell cpu and an nvidia maxwell gpu should behave identically
[08:41] <squintskii> uefi, single boot
[08:42] <stacy-> its umake
[08:42] <GnsP> stacy-, I am not into android dev. So I dont know anything about umake.
[08:42] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: try nomodeset, 14.04.4 or 16.04 to find out whats happening
[08:42] <stacy-> not uname..sorry
[08:42] <GnsP> uname is to display system info ofcrs
[08:42] <GnsP> like uname -a or uname -r etc
[08:43] <GnsP> umake is for android, about which I dont have much knowledge
[08:44] <stacy-> it freezes at the shell prompt when i do a umake android
[08:44] <lotuspsychje> !nomodeset | squintskii
[08:44] <stacy-> and then it says choose installation path
[08:44] <GnsP> maybe you should set an installation path before running it
[08:44] <squintskii> lotuspsychje, yes, and my point is that after 6 years this shouldnt be a thing anymore, the devs should find a way to prevent it
[08:45] <GnsP> like doing some config or something
[08:45] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: you cant talk in general, like i said we have users with your same card running ubuntu fine
[08:45] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: you made a bug of this that proves its going on for 6 years?
[08:46] <squintskii> yes, but it shouldnt happen to ANY users, the fact that it happens sometimes and doesnt happen other times means something is clearly wrong with either the distro, the default graphics drivers, or the linux kernel in general
[08:46] <squintskii> lotuspsychje, that thread is dated 2010
[08:46] <squintskii> so its at least 6 years
[08:46] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: we dont live in a dreamworld where everything runs perfect
[08:46] <lotuspsychje> squintskii: every Os has bugs, and ubuntu deals with them
[08:47] <stacy-> gnsp... i did a sudo apt-get install ubuntu-make ... prior to umake android
[08:47] <squintskii> apparently not, i've never heard of a bug that has affected windows or macOS for 6 years without even a partial resolution before
[08:47] <GnsP> apt-get install installs the package only
[08:47] <GnsP> apt-get has nothing to do with the config
[08:48] <GnsP> to config a package you have to config it manually most of the time.
[08:49] <stacy-> Choose installation path: /home/k/.local/share/umake/android/android-studio
[08:50] <stacy-> thats what i get when i do a umake android
[08:50] <GnsP> that looks ok
[08:50] <stacy-> but it just freezes there
[08:51] <GnsP> choosing that installation path will install android studio for your user only
[08:51] <GnsP> rather than doing a systemwide installation
[08:51] <stacy-> i dont think it has installed
[08:51] <stacy-> how do i choose the installation path?.. when i hit enter nothing happens
[08:51] <GnsP> I think that freezes because the android studio is a large package to download
[08:51] <GnsP> how long does your system remain in freezed state ?
[08:52] <stacy-> i tested it the longest was 8 hours in that freezed state
[08:52] <stacy-> only the shell is frozen not the system
[08:52] <GnsP> I think android studio is about 1-2GB
[08:53] <GnsP> 8 hours is too long
[08:53] <stacy-> when i do a ctrl c then it exits
[08:53] <GnsP> do you have a fast internet connection ?
[08:53] <stacy-> yes
[08:53] <stacy-> very fast
[08:53] <GnsP> does umake have a verbose mode ? like a -v option ?
[08:53] <stacy-> how do i know if it went into the path.. is it asking me to choose the installation path?
[08:54] <StatelessCat> hey
[08:54] <stacy-> hi statelesscat
[08:54] <StatelessCat> is UbuntuBSD roX enough ?
[08:54] <GnsP> I recommend you run the umake in verbose mode to see what is actually happening and where it frezes actually
[08:55] <stacy-> gnsp.. whats the command to type to get into the verbose mode
[08:55] <GnsP> try umake -v
[08:55] <stacy-> umake -v android .. right?
[08:56] <stacy-> i got an error reply finally
[08:56] <GnsP> yeah, but before that better check the man page for umake
[08:56] <stacy-> ERROR: https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html couldn't finish download: ('Connection aborted.', OSError(101, 'Network is unreachable'))
[08:56] <stacy-> ERROR: An error occurred while downloading https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html: ('Connection aborted.', OSError(101, 'Network is unreachable'))
[08:56] <ikonia> what does that error suggest to you
[08:57] <stacy-> there is no suggest in the error
[08:57] <GnsP> in most cases verbose mode is switched by the -v switch. But it's better to check the manual. The manual can be checked using 'man umake'
[08:57] <ikonia> stacy-: there is
[08:57] <ikonia> "network is unreachable"
[08:57] <ikonia> what does that suggest to you
[08:57] <GnsP> yeah
[08:57] <GnsP> now you know the error (y)
[08:57] <GnsP> :)
[08:58] <stacy-> is there an alternative way to download it?
[08:58] <GnsP> is umake written in python ?
[08:58] <p41nk1ll3r> Hi, I'm trying to partition my drive so that I can run Windows 7 on it, and I've tried to follow this guide http://askubuntu.com/questions/454282/how-to-install-windows-7-alongside-ubuntu-14-04?lq=1   but when I run gparted it won't let me resize the big partition (700Gb, /dev/devsda2) it only allows me to do that to a partition with 250Mb (/dev/sd
[08:58] <p41nk1ll3r> a1), how can I fix this? Is there anyother way to this?
[08:58] <GnsP> because the error message looks like it's written in python
[08:58] <ikonia> p41nk1ll3r: is the free space next to the partition you are trying to resize
[08:59] <GnsP> if so, you can try looking at the source and get it customized for your needs
[08:59] <stacy-> gnsp.. is there another way to download it?
[08:59] <GnsP> On that, I have no idea whatsoever
[08:59] <GnsP> I am not an android developer
[09:00] <stacy-> :(
[09:00] <stacy-> stuck now
[09:00] <GnsP> you might want to try some other tools or google the issue
[09:00] <stacy-> would this apply if its for ios?
[09:00] <ikonia> stacy-: what are you talking about ios ?
[09:00] <GnsP> I think if you check the umake issues page, you might find some solution
[09:01] <stacy-> ikonia..sorry i didnt sleep for nearly 1 day
[09:02] <ikonia> not sure what that has to do with anything
[09:02] <GnsP> stacy- , if you are facing this problem, there is a chance that somebody else has faced it before and found a solution to it, try looking for the solution in stackoverflow or github issues page for umake or any dedicated forum.
[09:02] <stacy-> gsnp..thanks ..ill try the issues page
[09:03] <GnsP> welcome
[09:03] <GnsP> let's hope u find a solution soon
[09:03] <GnsP> 1 day is a long time to stay awake :)
[09:05] <dima_> hello what is it?
[09:06] <ikonia> what is what ?
[09:07] <dima_> is it a messaging app? i clicked HexChat on my Ubuntu Mate 15.10
[09:07] <ikonia> dima_: this is IRC (google IRC) it's a chat service, you're in a chat that is used for discussing ubuntu technical support only
[09:09] <dima_> my ubuntu laptop Lenovo G50-30 2GB RAM boot very slow, but in the first time after install it was very fast
[09:10] <spreco> moin
[09:10] <dima_> also google chrome eats a lot of memmory
[09:10] <kazuka> guten
[09:10] <lotuspsychje> dima_: perhaps xubuntu/lubuntu would fit your machine better?
[09:11] <lotuspsychje> dima_: more lightweight is also chromium-browser
[09:11] <dima_> yes, i installed it because unity was weird
[09:12] <spreco> ganz schön was los hier ;)
[09:15] <lotuspsychje> !de | spreco
[09:16] <llutz> lotuspsychje: just a troll, better to ignore
[09:16] <p41nk1ll3r> ikonia ;  http://i.stack.imgur.com/ZBObf.png
[09:17] <ikonia> p41nk1ll3r: so no, you can't resize that
[09:18] <spreco> rightclick on chan + autojoin brings me back here next time i join?
[09:19] <p41nk1ll3r> what should I do then? I need a partition with windows to run Solidworks, the program is too heavy to run in virtualbox
[09:20] <ikonia> p41nk1ll3r: what do you want me to say ? you've made a mess of your partitioning and locked your self into a corner
[09:20] <spreco> looks like he's right... just my 2 cents
[09:22] <cspack> p41nk1ll3r: did you try resizing /dev/sda5?
[09:31] <xc> hello,guys,i want to know sth about phone with ubuntu systerm
[09:31] <xc> first,where can i buy MeiZu Pro 5 Ubuntu?
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> !touch | xc
[09:33] <xc> ubottu thanks a lot
[09:34] <xc> ubottu er,,,,,so smart bot :p
[09:34] <xc> ....
[09:36] <stiflers_brother> Anyone hop on 16.04 yet?
[09:36] <baizon> stiflers_brother: im on 16.04 for 2 weeks now
[09:37] <ikonia> hop /
[09:37] <stiflers_brother> Thoughts? Worth an upgrade?
[09:37] <ikonia> ?
[09:37] <ikonia> stiflers_brother: #ubuntu+1 is the channel for 16.04 discussion
[09:37] <stiflers_brother> ikonia: Thanks!
[09:41] <syeekick> hey guys i ran this by mistake "sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove deluge-webui" it removed some dependices, how can i assure myself these dependices aren't needed by other programmes or what i did didn't damage anything else?
[09:42] <p41nk1ll3r> cspack: i did, it's also locked
[09:42] <EriC^^> syeekick: autoremove only removes unneeded stuff
[09:42] <p41nk1ll3r> ikonia: I'm just asking for advice x)
[09:42] <syeekick> cool :) thanks eric
[09:42] <baizon> syeekick: it wont damage other programs
[09:42] <ikonia> p41nk1ll3r: re-install and partition your disks correctly
[09:42] <p41nk1ll3r> alright
[09:43] <p41nk1ll3r> how do I go about that? that partitioning I have right now happened through the automatic install
[09:44] <ikonia> p41nk1ll3r: select manual partitioning
[09:45] <p41nk1ll3r> do I partion it into two, one for each OS, or do I need to make anyother partitions for recoveries and such?
[09:45] <user_> hi
[09:46] <baizon> !hi | user
[09:46] <baizon> !hi | user_
[09:46] <cspack> p41nk1ll3r: it's easier to install windows first if you are starting over
[09:46] <baizon> :(
[09:46] <baizon> !hello
[09:46] <baizon> !welcome
[09:46] <ikonia> p41nk1ll3r: however you want
[09:46] <ikonia> baizon: whawt do you want ?
[09:47] <baizon> ikonia: welcome message from the bot
[09:47] <ikonia> baizon: you're not going to get one,
[09:47] <baizon> ok :(
[09:47] <ikonia> baizon: check the topic if you want to know the info on the channel
[09:47] <Kartagis> am I not allowed to create a ssh key and use it on another computer of mine?
[09:48] <ikonia> of course you are
[09:48] <ikonia> you can do whatever you want with ssh keys
[09:48] <ikonia> they are your keys
[09:49] <Kartagis> ikonia: I created one, copied it to my other machine, .ssh directory is 700 and key key.pub are 644, I added it to remote server, I am still asked for password
[09:49] <jerry> eee
[09:49] <ikonia> Kartagis: debug the problem then
[09:50] <jerry> k
[09:50] <Kartagis> ssh -v ?
[09:50] <jerry> ?
[09:50] <ikonia> Kartagis: thats one option
[09:50] <ikonia> jerry: what do you want
[09:50] <ikonia> Kartagis: look at the logs on the server also
[09:50] <llutz> Kartagis: chmod 600 key
[09:50] <ikonia> (auth log specfically)
[09:50] <ikonia> you'll normally see an error, such as "permissions on key too open"
[09:50] <jerry> new on ubuntu
[09:50] <ikonia> as llutz is sugesting
[09:50] <stiflers_brother> Kartagis: https://www.linode.com/docs/security/securing-your-server a section called "Harden SSH Access"
[09:51] <jerry> i am new here
[09:51] <Kartagis> ssh -v says it seeks specific names
[09:51] <ikonia> jerry: check the topic of the chanel, it has some useful links
[09:51] <jerry> k
[09:51] <ikonia> specific names of what ?
[09:52] <llutz> Kartagis: man ssh (-i keyfile)  if you use non-default names for keys
[09:52] <stiflers_brother> Kartagis: https://www.linode.com/docs/security/use-public-key-authentication-with-ssh also a very good article
[09:52] <jerry> yeaah
[09:52] <Kartagis> id_rsa, id_dsa, id_ecdsa, id_ed25519
[09:52] <jerry> its useful to me
[09:52] <Kartagis> ikonia: key names
[09:52] <ikonia> Kartagis: they are just the default names it will try
[09:53] <ikonia> Kartagis: as llutz said, if you want to use a different named PRIVATE key, -i
[09:53] <Kartagis> I did that
[09:53] <jerry> ??
[09:53] <jerry> whats going on ??
[09:53] <ikonia> jerry: this is an ubuntu technical support channel
[09:53] <jerry> okay
[09:54] <Kartagis> I chmod'd the key btw
[09:54] <jerry> okay guys
[09:54] <jerry> bye
[09:54] <jerry> gonna go
[09:55] <llutz> Kartagis: use ssh -vv to get verbose output. in most cases the issue is shown there
[09:55] <ikonia> look on the remote servers auth log
[09:55] <Kartagis> debug2: we did not send a packet, disable method
[09:55] <ikonia> you'll see why it's rejecting
[09:55] <Kartagis> I got this
[09:56] <ikonia> Kartagis: have you setup authorized_key file on your remote machine, are the permissions on the REMOTE machine files correct
[09:57] <Kartagis> ikonia: remote server's authorized_keys have 600
[09:57] <ikonia> what does the authentication log show
[09:58] <Kartagis> nothing until I login with password
[09:58] <ikonia> thats not correct
[09:58] <ikonia> as it must reject the key
[09:58] <ikonia> Kartagis: what is the EXACT - and I do mean exact, ssh command you are using
[09:58] <Kartagis> ssh -vv remote@server
[09:59] <ikonia> nah, thats not the exact commmand
[09:59] <llutz> Kartagis: and whats the name of the key you copied from another machine?
[09:59] <Kartagis> ssh -vv<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[09:59] <ikonia> Kartagis: nah, thats not the exact command either
[09:59] <Kartagis> llutz: kartagis
[09:59] <llutz> Kartagis: man ssh (-i keyfile)  if you use non-default names for keys
[09:59] <Kartagis> llutz: I did that
[10:00] <ikonia> no you didn't
[10:00] <ikonia> as your command shows
[10:00] <ikonia> Kartagis: %90 of your problems are user error
[10:00] <llutz> Kartagis: stop kidding
[10:00] <ikonia> this is why we need the EXACT command
[10:00] <ikonia> Kartagis: either give us real info or stop
[10:00] <ikonia> this is always the same with your problems
[10:00] <llutz> Kartagis: did you set your ssh.config to use that keyname?
[10:01] <Kartagis> oh, I didn't know I had to do that
[10:01] <ikonia> you don't
[10:01] <llutz> Kartagis: i'm not talking about USERnames
[10:01] <ikonia> give us the EXACT command
[10:01] <ikonia> final time I'll ask - give us the EXACT command you are using
[10:02] <Kartagis> ikonia: the exact command to copy the key?
[10:02] <ikonia> Kartagis: no, to ssh to the host
[10:02] <llutz> and the exact name of the key-pair you're trying to use
[10:02] <Kartagis> ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[10:02] <Kartagis> llutz: kartagis
[10:03] <Kartagis> and kartagis.pub
[10:03] <llutz> Kartagis: and where are you using -i?
[10:03] <ikonia> Kartagis: now ls -la ~/.ssh
[10:03] <ikonia> and put it in a pastebin
[10:03] <llutz> once again Kartagis: man ssh (-i keyfile)  if you use non-default names for keys
[10:03] <Kartagis> http://termbin.com/jqhk
[10:04] <ikonia> right - so your key is not called id_rsa or id_dsa - so how do you expect that to work as llutz is saying
[10:04] <Kartagis> llutz: I have done ssh-copy-id -i .ssh/kartagis.pub<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[10:04] <ikonia> Kartagis: .pub !!!
[10:04] <llutz> Kartagis: and?
[10:04] <ikonia> thats your PUBLIC key
[10:04] <ikonia> you need the private key
[10:04] <Kartagis> ikonia: but the thing is, it works from my original computer
[10:05] <llutz> Kartagis: you need to use "ssh -i kartagis bla@foo
[10:05] <ikonia> so what if it works from your original computer ??
[10:05] <ikonia> it doesn't work from this one - so you need to fix this one
[10:05] <ikonia> Kartagis: show me the command you are using from your broken computer to ssh using the kartagis key
[10:06] <geirha> ssh-copy-id wants the public key, so that part is fine
[10:06] <Kartagis> ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[10:06] <ikonia> Kartagis: so thats neer going to work
[10:06] <ikonia> as you've been told -i to use custom key names
[10:07] <Kartagis> erm... my command has -i
[10:07] <ikonia> Kartagis: where ?
[10:07] <ikonia> m
[10:07] <ikonia> 10:07 < ikonia> Kartagis: so thats neer goi
[10:07] <ikonia> oops
[10:07] <Kartagis> [12:04:33] <Kartagis> llutz: I have done ssh-copy-id -i .ssh/kartagis.pub<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[10:07] <ikonia> Kartagis: that is NOT the ssh command
[10:08] <ikonia> Kartagis: you need to tell your ssh client to use a custom key
[10:08] <ikonia> Kartagis: you need to ssh with the custom PRIVATE key
[10:08] <ikonia> you used -i on the ssh-copy-id command
[10:13] <coffeeguy> hi any reasons why 'system settings' would be crashing?
[10:13] <coffeeguy> in 15.10
[10:13] <baizon> coffeeguy: launch it from terminal and see what error msg you get
[10:14] <coffeeguy> kk ty baizon will do
[10:15] <baizon> coffeeguy: command is unity-control-center
[10:15] <bobby_> quick sanity check, a plile of cupshelpers, and the kernel fail debsums?
[10:15] <coffeeguy> interesting, the icon doesn't turn red when i launch it from the terminal
[10:17]  * bobby_ has fresh install and latest updates, and allready failing debsums
[10:22] <p41nk1ll3r> I'm trying to create a bottable usb
[10:22] <p41nk1ll3r> when I select the iso it wont show on the startup disk creator
[10:23] <p41nk1ll3r> bootable*
[10:25] <ikonia> Kartagis: did it work ?
[10:25] <Kartagis> I'm reading on IdentityFile
[10:25] <ikonia> your what ?
[10:27] <ikonia> Kartagis: what are you actually doing now ?
[10:27] <ikonia> it should be as simple as specifying -i
[10:27] <mintux> when i use tar it returns error tar: .htaccess: Cannot stat: No such file or directory how can i tell it skip if doesn't find this file?
[10:28] <ikonia> why is it looking for it if you didn't tell it to use it
[10:28] <Kartagis> yea, I'm looking for a way to not force me to use -i every time
[10:28] <ikonia> Kartagis: then just update your ssh_config
[10:28] <ikonia> to include that key name
[10:29] <Kartagis> ikonia: with IdentityFile?
[10:29] <ikonia> no
[10:29] <ikonia> with the name of the key file
[10:29] <ikonia> oh you mean the parameter name
[10:29] <ikonia> yes
[10:33] <Kartagis> ikonia: let me ask you something. could it be not working because I'm trying to ssh into a server over a ssh session?
[10:35] <half_duplex> I've installed Ubuntu server 15.10 on a Microserver Gen8 and had a issue with sda being the USB stick and sdb being the target boot/os drive.
[10:35] <half_duplex> I select Grub to install on sdb but on reboot I get a blank screen.
[10:35] <ikonia> Kartagis: ssh over an ssh session ??
[10:36] <Kartagis> yes
[10:36] <ikonia> Kartagis: what does that even mean ?
[10:36] <half_duplex> I've used the installer in rescue mode and run grub-install /dev/sdb and grub-update.
[10:36] <mintux> tar: .htaccess: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
[10:36] <mintux> tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
[10:36] <ikonia> mintux: answer my question
[10:36] <baizon> half_duplex: uefi bios?
[10:36] <Kartagis> I've ssh'd in from a to be and I'm now ssh'ing in from c to b
[10:36] <mintux> ikonia: what was your question ?
[10:36] <half_duplex> On reboot, I got the Grub selector and the OS booted. Until I rebooted again.
[10:36] <Kartagis> s/be/b
[10:37] <half_duplex> baizon: pretty sure, yeah.
[10:37] <ikonia> Kartagis: where is your private key file held, on which machines
[10:37] <ikonia> mintux: why is it looking for .htaccess if you didn't tell it to
[10:37] <baizon> half_duplex: then you have to create and install it on your uefi partition
[10:37] <baizon> half_duplex: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
[10:37] <Kartagis> ikonia: I've first created the key-pair on machine-a then copied them to machine-b
[10:38] <mintux> ikonia: it's inside script and some folder has some folder hasn't so i want tar skip if it doesn't find it but it exit
[10:38] <ikonia> Kartagis: not what I asked
[10:38] <Kartagis> passwordless login is working on machine-a, not on machine-b
[10:38] <ikonia> Kartagis: on what machines are your PRIVATE keys kept
[10:38] <ikonia> Kartagis: again - not what I asked
[10:38] <Kartagis> both machine-a and b
[10:38] <ikonia> mintux: just ignore it
[10:38] <ikonia> Kartagis: right so how do you expect to be able to ssh from c to b
[10:39] <ikonia> Kartagis: C doesn't have your private mey on it
[10:39] <ikonia> key
[10:39] <half_duplex> baizon: Oh! Thank you very much :)
[10:39] <Kartagis> oh, c has to have my private key
[10:39] <ikonia> Kartagis: any key you want to connect from has to have your private key
[10:39] <ikonia> how else can it unlock the public key ?
[10:40] <Kartagis> sorry, I only did this with default names before, and it worked
[10:40] <ikonia> the default name has nothing to do with it
[10:40] <ikonia> if you don't have the private key - even with standard names, it will not work
[10:40] <mintux> ikonia: how
[10:40] <ikonia> mintux: how what ?
[10:41] <Kartagis> so, c has to have my private key, which is kartagis
[10:41] <mintux> ignore ot
[10:41] <Kartagis> I have to have kartagis.pub
[10:41] <ikonia> mintux: it is ignoring it
[10:41] <Kartagis> okay, got it
[10:41] <ikonia> Kartagis: no !!!!
[10:41] <ikonia> Kartagis: that is your PUBLIC key
[10:41] <dfas> hello - I made bootable usb using unetbootin but my old laptop isn't booting from the usb. With my newer computer it works fine. How can i get it working with my laptop?
[10:42] <ikonia> Kartagis: your private key lives on the source machine, your public key lives on the target machine in the authorized_keys file
[10:43] <Kartagis> ikonia: okay, c has to have my public key, and a and b have to have my private key
[10:43] <Kartagis> okay
[10:44] <ikonia> Kartagis: no
[10:44]  * Kartagis facepalms
[10:44] <ikonia> Kartagis: you said you where trying to go from C to B correct ?
[10:44] <Kartagis> right
[10:44] <Kartagis> both from a and b
[10:45] <ikonia> Kartagis: which one of C and B is the "source" and which is the "target"
[10:45] <markit> hi, 16.04 beta2 has iso and ".img" files, what is the difference?
[10:45] <markit> ops, better ask in +1
[10:45] <Kartagis> C is the target, A and B are the sources
[10:45] <ikonia> no it's not
[10:45] <ikonia> you are going from C to B
[10:46] <ikonia> so C is the source, B is the target
[10:46] <ikonia> the Source is where you come FROM the target is where you are GOING
[10:46] <Kartagis> no, I'm going to C from B
[10:46] <ikonia> Kartagis: thats not what you said earlier
[10:46] <Kartagis> so, C is the target
[10:47] <ikonia> 10:38 < Kartagis> I've ssh'd in from a to be and I'm now ssh'ing in from c to b
[10:47] <ikonia> Kartagis: you said earlier C to B
[10:47] <ikonia> which is it
[10:47] <Kartagis> my bad
[10:47] <Kartagis> I typo'ed
[10:47] <ikonia> no problem
[10:47] <Kartagis> I'm sorry
[10:48] <ikonia> not a problem
[10:48] <Kartagis> A to B, B to C
[11:05] <pola_lol_> hello
[11:05] <Skyrider> Hey
[11:05] <Skyrider> Is there any tutorials for webdav for ubuntu?
[11:06] <pola_lol_> new on linux and need some help....anyone offering?
[11:06] <DirtyCajun> pola_lol_: ask your question dont ask to ask
[11:06] <MoLoot> pola_lol_, What type of help are you looking for?
[11:07] <pola_lol_> how to make wifi work on macbook?
[11:07] <DirtyCajun> Skyrider: http://bfy.tw/4wfF
[11:07] <pola_lol_> have trouble with it
[11:07] <DirtyCajun> is it intermittant or not working at all
[11:07] <Skyrider> Yes, I tried google..
[11:07] <Skyrider> I'm not an idiot.
[11:07] <cfhowlett> Skyrider, please don't lmgtfy.
[11:08] <DirtyCajun> Skyrider: that is a guide for webdav. was the first search result
[11:08] <Skyrider> cfhowlett ?
[11:09] <cfhowlett> Skyrider, I know it's fun and I am often tempted to send the lmgtfy but it is frowned upon here.  some people don't the google-fu that you do.
[11:09] <DirtyCajun> cfhowlett: im the one taht sent that haha. but ok
[11:09] <Skyrider> I never send any google links?..
[11:09] <cfhowlett> DirtyCajun, ah, yes.  sorry skyrider, wrong nick on my part
[11:09] <Skyrider> :p
[11:09] <pola_lol_> at network status wired is working but wifi networks disconnected
[11:09] <DirtyCajun> but seriously tho Skyrider that link
[11:09] <DirtyCajun> is a full guide
[11:09] <Skyrider> Anyway.. I noticed on google that 'most' tutorials are about apache.
[11:09] <pola_lol_> can't even click on it :/
[11:09] <Skyrider> Why is apache involved in the first place?
[11:10] <Skyrider> I mean, I'd like to mount the webdav drive, not using any web package methods.
[11:10] <Skyrider> And I'm using nginx btw, not apache :)
[11:10] <pola_lol_> something is wrong with kernel source?
[11:11] <pola_lol_> tried to fix by googling but i am afraid if i have done smoothing wrong
[11:11] <DirtyCajun> Skyrider: webdav is a module of Apache2.
[11:11] <pola_lol_> newbie on linux
[11:11] <Skyrider> But that's the only way, using apache?
[11:11] <DirtyCajun> no
[11:12] <DirtyCajun> type. webdav nginx ubuntu into google
[11:12] <pola_lol_> and i also have a problem with the touchpad sensitivity
[11:12] <DirtyCajun> theres about 10 of them
[11:12] <DirtyCajun> but it isnt a separated thing it is a webserver module.
[11:13] <Skyrider> I mean, methods without apache or nginx.
[11:13] <DirtyCajun> so you will just be adding on to apache or nginx
[11:13] <DirtyCajun> its not isolated
[11:13] <Skyrider> weird.
[11:13] <DirtyCajun> how?
[11:14] <pola_lol_> any suggestions?
[11:14] <DirtyCajun> pola_lol_: can you see the wireless networks or does it say no networks
[11:14] <vbotka> !wifi | pola_lol_
[11:16] <pola_lol_> in menu has "enable wifi" but upper to the list "wifi networks disconnected" with gray letters
[11:18] <pola_lol_> have ubuntu 14.04 LTS if that helps on a MacBook Air 2.1
[11:19] <pola_lol_> i will check the link also....hope i find smthing
[11:21] <crond> pola_lol_, did you go to the hardware drivers and install the broadcom module?
[11:21] <crond> I believe that system has a broadcom wifi
[11:21] <recon_lap> hi, setting up a new install of ubuntu on a new machine, New wrinkel in my setup is I'm putting the system on a 120gig SSD, normally I'd just put my /home folder on a second partition, I want to ask since the 120gig ssd is limited in size what other folder sould I move off to the regular HHD ?
[11:21] <crond> you can install them under additional drivers
[11:21] <pola_lol_> broad come it is i have already found out that
[11:22] <cfhowlett> !broadcom | pola_lol_,
[11:22] <pola_lol_> lol my english!!!!
[11:22] <crond> pola_lol_, then go to additional drivers in settings and install the broadcom wifi module
[11:24] <crond> recon_lap, I have a similar set up, I just put /home on the hdd, because most 'big' downloads are multimedia or whatnot.  Your use case may vary based on what you do.  I'm at about 40% used on / (my ssd) with a full install of xubuntu 15.10 and a bunch of other stuff as well
[11:24] <Laurenceb_> hi, I have a problem, the brightness indicator wont fade away
[11:24] <Laurenceb_> its always at the top right of my screen
[11:25] <recon_lap> crond: is it a 120gb drive?
[11:27] <crond> recon_lap, yes.
[11:27] <recon_lap> crond: thx, I'll just do my normal setup then
[11:27] <crond> recon_lap, I actually have a 120gb ssd for /, a 120gb ssd for /home, and a 320gb hdd for /media/storage (symlinked to /home/user/Videos and /home/user/Downloads and /home/user/Music)
[11:28] <crond> so you'll be fine with just /home as a bigger hdd
[11:28] <binary01> hi all, i am having trouble booting into my desktop. At first after i try to login it would just return to login screen. i read that i may be a problem with lightdm and to try gdm instead. i installed gdm and now i get a black screen on boot. does anyone know how to fix this?
[11:28] <venky18> http://askubuntu.com/questions/750280/windows-ethernet-doesnt-work-after-using-ubuntu-16-04-in-dual-boot  I am having ethernet problem in dual boot details can be found dhere
[11:29] <pola_lol_> one silly but important question....on linux do you have to set up a wireless connection or it founds out wifi like in other native OS?
[11:30] <crond> pola_lol_, network manager will detect nearby networks, you just sign into them, same as windows, android, etc.
[11:31] <pola_lol_> that doesn't work on me so i must check on the links you all gave me
[11:31] <crond> pola_lol_, did you install the broadcom module from Additional Drivers and reboot?
[11:31] <crond> cause you won't see any wifi networks until you do
[11:31] <pola_lol_> i will try it out now
[11:34] <Laurenceb_> is there a way to restart the brightness control applet?
[11:34] <Laurenceb_> something is wrong, I have a brightness indicator permanently on the screen
[11:38] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[11:38] <Erbins> ls
[11:39] <Erbins> oops
[11:42] <Laurenceb_> can anyone help?
[11:43] <MonkeyDust> Laurenceb_  start with a question
[11:43] <Laurenceb_> something is wrong, I have a brightness indicator permanently on the screen
[11:43] <Laurenceb_> it doesnt fade away
[11:44] <MonkeyDust> Laurenceb_  what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[11:44] <Kartagis> !info php
[11:44] <Kartagis> !find php
[11:44] <MonkeyDust> !php
[11:45] <Laurenceb_> MonkeyDust: 10.04lts
[11:45] <MonkeyDust> Laurenceb_  10.04 is dead
[11:45] <Laurenceb_> ok I'll look elsewhere
[11:45] <MonkeyDust> Laurenceb_  install 14.04 or 15.10, then ask again
[11:45] <stiflers_brother> Laurenceb_: How old is your hardware?
 about 2007
[11:46] <Laurenceb_> it was working fine until yesterday
[11:46] <cfhowlett> Laurenceb_, lubuntu or xubuntu would be better for you
[11:46] <Laurenceb_> brightness hotkeys still work fine
[11:46] <MonkeyDust> Laurenceb_  but not 10.04
[11:46] <stiflers_brother> Laurenceb_: Make sure you meet the minimum system requirements and upgrade if possible. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements
[11:47] <cfhowlett> and you truly need to upgrade as your system has received security upgrades in way too long
[11:50] <MonkeyDust> has not received ^^
[11:59] <Aussie_matt> any of the asusx205ta warriors in today?
[11:59] <MonkeyDust> Aussie_matt  ask, don't ask to ask
[11:59] <lotuspsychje> Aussie_matt: better to ask your issue to the channel mate
[11:59] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust

[12:09] <giachi2> hi
[12:13] <JFlash> guys I installed a software called Terminator
[12:14] <JFlash> and now I cannot complete folder names by using the tab key
[12:14] <JFlash> goddamit how can they hijack the key evryone uses to browse folders
[12:14] <EriC^^> JFlash: type apt-cache policy bash-completion
[12:14] <MonkeyDust> JFlash  keep this channel family friendly
[12:14] <cfhowlett> JFlash, drop the bad language please
[12:15] <JFlash> sorry, did not know it was bad language :(
[12:16] <JFlash> EriC^^, but I dont want to change from using tab key
[12:16] <JFlash> I want to keep it
[12:16] <d4rksid3> sup
[12:16] <JFlash> i guess I will have to change key bindings in Terminator then. what a hassle
[12:16] <MonkeyDust> JFlash  any reason you want to use Terminal, and not another terminal?
[12:16] <d4rksid3> i am using a raspberry pi 3
[12:17] <MonkeyDust> Terminator*
[12:17] <MonkeyDust> d4rksid3  #ubuntu-arm
[12:17] <d4rksid3> works great so far
[12:17] <d4rksid3> just a bit too slow
[12:17] <d4rksid3> with browser
[12:17] <JFlash> yes I need split screen. I looked at some options and decided to go with Terminator
[12:18] <mallard> JFlash: If you want split screen, have a look at multiplexers like tmux.
[12:18] <JFlash> mallard, I did
[12:18] <MonkeyDust> or 'screen'
[12:20] <EriC^^> JFlash: does tab work in other terminals?
[12:21] <EriC^^> i dont remember it not working after installing terminator once
[12:21] <JFlash> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/terminator-users/_W40RE6DX6k
[12:21] <JFlash> I'm doomed
[12:21] <JFlash> it will never work
[12:22] <EriC^^> what it said is that it's not related to terminator
[12:22] <lotuspsychje> JFlash: you can try testing terminator tab into another user
[12:22] <EriC^^> it's related to the shell
[12:23] <EriC^^> JFlash: try pressing tab a couple times
[12:23] <JFlash> btw, it works on one of the screens but not the other
[12:24] <JFlash> EriC^^, I did, it just freaks out and does nothing
[12:24] <JFlash> keeps showing a little lamp icon at the top
[12:25] <JFlash> probably saing it doesnt know what to do with that command
[12:25] <JFlash> this sucks
[12:25] <lotuspsychje> JFlash: wich ubuntu version are you on?
[12:25] <JFlash> vidid
[12:25] <MonkeyDust> !vivid
[12:25] <JFlash> vivid
[12:26] <lotuspsychje> JFlash: install a supported version from topic mate
[12:26] <JFlash> ok, thanks for your advice and help
[12:26] <JFlash> ttyl
[12:31] <wh0ami> how can i define log name of a screen? im running: " screen -LAmdS test ./file " and this writes to screenlog.0 but i want to change to something like the date or if not possible, how can i do to let screen log everything inside it to file?

[12:39] <lotuspsychje> rofelmao: reboot and check logs
[12:39] <yeganer> rofelmao: just out of curiosity, are you running ubuntu 15.10 with kernel 4.2-27 or 4.2-30 ?
[12:40] <rofelmao> I am new to Linux how to check those?
[12:40] <yeganer> `uname -r`
[12:40] <rofelmao> Logs and kernel? I am using 15.10 btw.
[12:40] <rofelmao> The kernel is 4.20 -34

[12:41] <Guest35950> I am sshed in to a cloud from where I want a pdf file.. I am doing rsync a.pdf name@ipaddress:Desktop/ but its not working... what am I doing wrong, any help???
[12:41] <ikonia> define not working
[12:41] <ikonia> and "into a cloud"
[12:42] <rofelmao> yeganer, There are a lot of folder in Log. Which one should I go look into?
[12:42] <Guest35950> connection timed out  and connection unexpectedly closed type errors .. and by cloud I mean server.
[12:43] <ikonia> Guest35950: connection times out normally means it's being blocked
[12:44] <Guest35950> ikonia: is there any way to confirm this?
[12:44] <ikonia> well, it's being blocked as it's timing out....what more confirmation do you want ?
[12:44] <Guest35950> ikonia: with scp, its keep on waiting.
[12:44] <ikonia> Guest35950: because it's blocked
[12:44] <Guest35950> ikonia: you used the word 'usually'
[12:44] <ikonia> right
[12:45] <Guest35950> thats why I said confirmation
[12:45] <ikonia> connect to the raw ports
[12:45] <_MyStartx_> Can someone tell me reason that squid in transparent mode say access denied ?
[12:45] <Guest35950> I have also tried scp but its keep on blinking]
[12:46] <Guest35950> and after some time it gives lost connection.
[12:46] <ikonia> Guest35950: because it's blocked
[12:46] <Guest35950> ikonia: is it blocked from my end or from server??
[12:46] <ikonia> _MyStartx_: your rules are wrong
[12:46] <ikonia> Guest35950: you'll need to work that out
[12:46] <Guest35950> ikonia:
[12:46] <Guest35950> thanks for your time
[12:47] <_MyStartx_> is about acl configuration or something in firewall?
[12:47] <ikonia> _MyStartx_: is this on centos ?

[13:02] <carlos444_444> @adhyayanpanwar try Modes "1280x800" Virtual "1280x800" in xorg.conf
[13:02] <lotuspsychje> adhyayanpanwar: whats wrong with your resolution?
[13:02] <adhyayanpanwar> lotus, my screen gets very distorted if it is on wrong resolution
[13:03] <carlos444_444> DM resolution not the same as desktop under VM?
[13:03] <adhyayanpanwar> i dont get you carlos.. ima noob

[13:05] <lucky__> hi.. i got problem in ubuntu 15.10
[13:05] <lucky__> mkimage error
[13:06] <adhyayanpanwar> and how can i permanently change my refresh rate
[13:06] <adhyayanpanwar> :-$
[13:06] <recon_lap> adhyayanpanwar: maybe doing this might help http://askubuntu.com/questions/360886/personalize-monitor-position-before-login/363992#363992
[13:07] <adhyayanpanwar> ok lemme try
[13:07] <recon_lap> adhyayanpanwar: should copy you monitor setup from after you login to the login screen. might fix it. I'd suggest backing your stuff up as messing with logins could go badly wrong
[13:08] <recon_lap> lol, guess he missed that warning
[13:09] <hrob> hi
[13:10] <hrob> could anyone with ubuntu 14.04 visit  this website  http://web2py.com/init/default/documentation    and check if mouse scrolling works ok with them
[13:10] <hrob> I mean visit it with the ubuntu 14.04 default firefox
[13:10] <hrob> should be version 44.0.2
[13:11] <ikonia> hrob: you're using that yourself
[13:11] <ikonia> you can check it yourself
[13:11] <hrob> ikonia: yes... its simply the firefox shipped with ubuntu I think
[13:11] <ikonia> hrob: so you can test it yourself then
[13:11] <ikonia> as you are running that same version
[13:11] <hrob> ikonia:  yes... however I cannot issue a bug to firefox yet
[13:11] <hrob> ikonia:  would help to confirm with other ubuntu users
[13:12] <ikonia> it's the same build for other users
[13:12] <ikonia> if it fails for you - it will fail for them
[13:12] <samurai99> don't think you are going to get many that are willing to click on a random link
[13:13] <hrob> samurai99: ikonia  ok... thats www.web2py.com  web framework official website, its popular opensource framework
[13:13] <hrob> hard to verify firefox bugs without test website to mention... so I chose a public one
[13:14] <hrob> keep in mind you need to have a regular mouse with mousewheel to test --- i dont think the issue occurs with touch devices
[13:14] <adhyayanpanwar> how can i change my resolution and refresh rate permanently thrugh termina
[13:14] <adhyayanpanwar> *terminal
[13:14] <hrob> adhyayanpanwar:  install randr
[13:14] <MonkeyDust> adhyayanpanwar  type xrandr
[13:14] <MonkeyDust> hrob  was faster
[13:15] <hrob> sorry MonkeyDust correct
[13:15] <hrob> xrandr
[13:15] <adhyayanpanwar> but it doesnt change it permanently
[13:15] <adhyayanpanwar> everytime i  login it reverts back
[13:16] <hrob> I guess I should go to ubuntu dev website talk to developer
[13:16] <ikonia> why ?
[13:16] <ikonia> you can confirm it yourself
[13:16] <hrob> ubuntu-dev channel I mean
[13:16] <ikonia> nope
[13:16] <ikonia> that is not what that channel is for
[13:17] <hrob> ikonia:   for software devs that is not so much a confirmed bug
[13:17] <adhyayanpanwar> help
[13:17] <ikonia> hrob: you should log a bug to launchpad.net
[13:17] <ikonia> that is not what the ubuntu development channel is for
[13:17] <hrob> ikonia:  it could be something I screwed up on my computer or my bios or other
[13:17] <ikonia> hrob: no it's not
[13:17] <ikonia> if you log the bug on launchpad.net others can confirm and contribute to it
[13:18] <hrob> ikonia:  ok will do thank you
[13:18] <hrob> ikonia:   but off course its probably firefox bug if confirmed
[13:18] <ikonia> even so it should go upstream via launchpad
[13:18] <hrob> ok thank you for the pointer, will try that

[13:37] <ikonia> adhyayanpanwar: your session data should be saved in your desktop settings, if you want to do it at the global level, you need to create and edit an xorg.conf file

[13:56] <touil> Hello. Is it possible to revert to "old-fashioned" scrollbar in ubuntu 15.10 ? By this I mean non-overlay scrollbar like in ubuntu 12.04, and not the new "gnomish" scrollbar...
[13:56] <MonkeyDust> touil  gsettings set com.canonical.desktop.interface scrollbar-mode normal
[13:57] <touil> Thanks MonkeyDust, but this did no change for me.
[13:57] <MonkeyDust> touil  and don't cross ask in two channels

[14:11] <janu> hi
[14:11] <janu> I have dual OS in my PC
[14:11] <janu> XP & Ubunut
[14:12] <Raul> hi guys
[14:12] <Raul> can someone help me???
[14:12] <janu> while booting ubunutu it throws an error
[14:12] <EOBeav> Raul just ask your question
[14:12] <janu> it says Gave up waiting for root device
[14:12] <Raul> Ok. Sorry.
[14:12] <EOBeav> janu can you post a screenshot?
[14:13] <Raul> I am installing Ubuntu 15.10 on an old notebook: i3 370m, 4GB DDR3 and 500GB HD
[14:13] <Raul> but I can not start the LiveCD.
[14:14] <lotuspsychje> Raul: singleboot or dualboot?
[14:14] <EOBeav> Raul have you configured your boot options in the bios?
[14:14] <Erbins> Raul. You need to make sure your laptop is set to boot from CD
[14:14] <MonkeyDust> Raul  in the BIOS, you have to select the boot device
[14:14] <Raul> It got stucked on this message: [OK] Started ACPI event daemon
[14:14] <janu> EOBeav: I will post
[14:14] <Raul> Yes, in te BIOS is set to AHCI and the boot to DVD drive
[14:15] <Raul> Do you know what is the problem here?
[14:15] <EOBeav> Raul: You could have a bad dvd copy, have you tried booting from a usb?
[14:16] <Raul> No I did not. But I have used this DVD copy to others installations and worked fine
[14:16] <Raul> Could it be an error on installation even in this situation?
[14:17] <MonkeyDust> Raul  so only this one pc does not see the dvd?
[14:17] <lotuspsychje> Raul: singleboot or dualboot?
[14:17] <EOBeav> Raul so have you installed it and it won't boot, or it won't boot from the dvd?
[14:17] <Raul> Yes, it starts but do not start server x
[14:18] <Raul> Yes, is singleboot
[14:18] <delikt> hi guys im one of the unlucky ppl they use Ubuntu (16.04/4.5.0-040500-generic 64bit) with an Amd R9 380 with a Tonga Chip. Can anyone help me to get the option Powerplay on (Standard off for this Card). I found out what to do here: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=AMDGPU-PP-4.5-Steps? but i dont know how to get to this options
[14:18] <Raul> I will install just Ubuntu on this machine. I am trying to get out the Windows 7 and putting Ubuntu 15.10
[14:18] <EriC^^> Raul: did you try nomodeset?
[14:18] <MonkeyDust> delikt  #ubuntu+1 for 16.04
[14:19] <Raul> No, what is it mean?
[14:19] <EriC^^> it means the kernel boots without any advanced graphics, just failsafe ones
[14:19] <EriC^^> !nomodeset | Raul
[14:20] <compdoc> ppl in the mailing list are trying to upgrade to 16.04, but I dont think they can until its released
[14:20] <janu> how do I post the screen shot?
[14:20] <EriC^^> janu: imgur.com
[14:22] <Raul> ubottu could you help me doing this? I do not know how can I set this on the boot of Ubuntu
[14:22] <lotuspsychje> compdoc: recommended on final indeed
[14:22] <Raul> What?
[14:23] <crond> Raul, ubottu is not a person.  It is a program that recognizes and responds to some words.
[14:23] <Raul> I did not know. Sorry
[14:23] <EriC^^> Raul: it's described in the link
[14:24] <Raul> Now I see, sorry guys
[14:24] <janu> http://imgur.com/E4v6Gu0
[14:24] <Raul> I do not know how can I fix this problem
[14:24] <janu> I posted the screen shot
[14:24] <janu> EOBeav: can you see?
[14:24] <EriC^^> Raul: try nomodeset, you probably need to change the graphics driver so it works usually
[14:25] <Raul> but I do not know how to do
[14:25] <EriC^^> Raul: which card do you have?
[14:25] <EriC^^> lspci | grep VGA to get the info
[14:25] <Raul> When starting the LiveCD it just asked me to Try Ubuntu Gnome or Install Ubuntu Gnome
[14:25] <Raul> I choosed Try because I need to backup the computer
[14:26] <Raul> but after that this happens
[14:26] <Raul> Just ther intel onboard
[14:26] <EriC^^> you didn't install ubuntu?
[14:26] <janu> hi can anyone help me? the screen shot is "http://imgur.com/E4v6Gu0"
[14:26] <Raul> Not yet
[14:26] <EriC^^> janu: try typing ls /dev/disk/by-uuid
[14:26] <Raul> How can I install if the system does not starts?
[14:27] <EriC^^> nomodeset Raul
[14:28] <EOBeav> janu: Not sure how to help you on that one. What are your computer specs?
[14:28] <Raul> EriC^^ I will search on Internet and see if I can use this
[14:29] <janu> 2 GB Ram, P4 processor, Mercury mother board, SATA hard disk 500 gb
[14:30] <vervet> janu: it's not finding your root device by the UUID, try what EriC^^ said above, next step is to make sure the busybox config is correct
[14:30] <EriC^^> janu: type ls to see the devices there
[14:30] <Raul> Ok, I got it. Now I will try with nomodeset option
[14:30] <janu> Eric: my inputs and outpus are below
[14:30] <EriC^^> ?
[14:30] <janu> input: ls /dev/sda9
[14:31] <janu> output: /dev/sda9
[14:31] <janu> like that for all the partitions
[14:31] <EriC^^> janu: ok
[14:31] <Emmarof> Hello, I get this feedback anytime I try installing software form the software 'The package sysvinit-utils needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.'
[14:31] <EriC^^> restart the pc, hold shift to get grub then press c to get a command prompt
[14:31] <Emmarof> I have been googling and reseaching for days but nothing seem to work for me.
[14:32] <janu> Eric: When do I need to hold shift?
[14:32] <EriC^^> janu: as soon as the pc powers up
[14:32] <janu> ok
[14:33] <Raul> Emmarof, try use: sudo apt-get remove sysvinit-utils, and after: sudo apt-get install sysvinit-utils
[14:34] <EriC^^> Emmarof: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall sysvinit-utils
[14:35] <Emmarof> Raul, this is the feedback I got from trying sudo apt-get remove sysvinit-utils 'The package sysvinit-utils needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[14:35] <Emmarof> '
[14:35] <Raul> EriC^^, If I can start the system and install it, everytime I need to start the notebook I will need to set nomodeset??
[14:35] <EriC^^> Emmarof: type sudo apt-get -f install
[14:36] <Raul> Emmarof, then use the EriC^^'s suggestion
[14:36] <Raul> it could work
[14:36] <janu> Eric: i got command prompt
[14:36] <EriC^^> Raul: no, you have to fix the graphics driver issue
[14:36] <Emmarof> Eric, I got the same feedback.
[14:37] <Raul> EriC^^, how can I do it?
[14:37] <EriC^^> maybe it's a bad kernel too
[14:37] <EriC^^> janu: ok, type ls -l
[14:37] <janu> ok
[14:37] <Raul> Emmarof, try to use dpkg -f just for being careful
[14:37] <Emmarof> sudo apt-get -f install gave the same ''The package sysvinit-utils needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.'
[14:37] <EriC^^> if it doesn't work try ls
[14:39] <Raul> EriC^^, the LiveCD started, I will try to intsall after a backup. If I can not set this to work I will come back here.
[14:39] <EriC^^> Emmarof: ok, type cat /etc/apt/sources.list | nc termbin.com 9999
[14:39] <Raul> Thanks for your help.
[14:39] <EriC^^> paste the link it gives you here
[14:39] <Raul> Thanks for your help. God bless you!!!
[14:39] <Emmarof> Raul please come clearer on the dpkg -f issue
[14:39] <EriC^^> !info sysvinit-utils trusty
[14:39] <EriC^^> Raul: great, no problem
[14:40] <Emmarof> ubottu, please is the said solution for my problem?
[14:40] <binary01>  hi all, i am having trouble booting into my desktop. At first after i try to login it would just return to login screen. i read that i may be a problem with lightdm and to try gdm instead. i installed gdm and now i get a black screen on boot. does anyone know how to fix this?
[14:40] <EriC^^> Emmarof: ubottu is a bot
[14:40] <janu> Eric: it is taking time, usually will it take long time?
[14:40] <Emmarof> oh ok
[14:40] <EriC^^> janu: no it should take a sec
[14:41] <janu> Eric: still it is taking time
[14:41] <janu> i can't break it by pressing ctrl+c
[14:41] <EriC^^> ok try restarting
[14:41] <EriC^^> did you try ls -l or ls?
[14:42] <EriC^^> Emmarof: type cat /etc/apt/sources.list | nc termbin.com 9999
[14:42] <Raul> Emmarof, I am sorry, I mean wrong. Try this: dpkg --configure. Ifdoes not work try dpkg --remove <package>
[14:42] <janu> ERIC: got some results. will post you the output shortly.
[14:43] <EriC^^> janu: ok
[14:43] <Raul> If the issue continue after that, try: dpkg --purge <package>
[14:44] <LekeFly> I have a site i can't reach using https, ufw has port 443 open but i'm still getting connection time out. https://decoder.link/sslchecker/ says "443 port seems to be closed or filtered" Anyone that could help me?
[14:44] <janu> Erric: http://imgur.com/qXkofSk
[14:45] <janu> the result is in the screen shot
[14:45] <lotuspsychje> LekeFly: maybe the #netfilter guys can help?
[14:46] <EriC^^> janu: ok, the uuid of the ubuntu partition is correct there, it's the same uuid that it said waiting for root device earlier
[14:47] <EriC^^> janu: the uuid that's being passed to it is correct, it's another problem and i think it's the hdd dying or something
[14:47] <EriC^^> since it was taking forever to give the ls -l results, it's probably taking very long while booting so it's giving up on waiting for it, you could set a rootdelay so that it waits longer for it, but ultimately there's another problem and there's no telling when your data will go
[14:48] <janu> so... do i need to get a new hard disk? is there anyother way to recover my data?
[14:48] <EriC^^> janu: yeah, press esc, then in grub press e over ubuntu
[14:49] <AlexPortable> How can I do this command for another user? dconf load / < dconf.txt
[14:49] <janu> Eric: ok, done
[14:49] <EriC^^> it should list a bunch of stuff, and near the bottom, linux /boot/vmlinuz .. root=UUID=105e....... quiet splash
[14:49] <EriC^^> does it say so at the bottom? with UUID=105e... ?
[14:49] <janu> yes
[14:50] <EriC^^> janu: ok, near quiet splash at the end type rootdelay=120
[14:50] <EriC^^> (use about the same time it took for the ls -l stuff to show up i guess)
[14:50] <EriC^^> janu: do you have a live usb?
[14:51] <janu> yes
[14:51] <janu> i have
[14:51] <EriC^^> it would be better to boot that
[14:51] <EriC^^> and mount the disk from there and get your data off
[14:51] <EriC^^> and run a smart test on it if possible to see the hdd health
[14:52] <maqbool> yo
[14:52] <janu> eric: i did boot from live USB, but i takes so much time to copy just 500 mb
[14:52] <janu> i will try smart tes
[14:53] <janu> smart test*
[14:53] <EriC^^> janu: could it be a bad connection to the hdd?
[14:53] <EriC^^> how old is it?
[14:53] <janu> i checked with some other cables too, i takes same time
[14:53] <janu> i bought hard disk 5 years ago
[14:54] <Needy> Hello.
[14:55] <Needy> I have a little problem on the installation of pepperflashplugin-nonfree
[14:55] <janu> If i buy a new hdd, can I able to copy data from the old one to new one?
[14:55] <Needy> I get that "The repository is insufficiently signed by key 4CCA1EAF950CEE4AB83976DCA040830F7FAC5991 (weak digest)"
[14:55] <SchrodingersScat> So, I had a line in /etc/fstab for a davfs2 mount.  If that mount was going to localhost that isn't mounted until after full boot, could that have caused it to hang on boot?
[14:55] <EriC^^> janu: yeah you should be able to
[14:55] <janu> OK, thank you....
[14:55] <EriC^^> janu: maybe try another hdd in the pc, or try the hdd on another pc
[14:55] <Needy> The package is installed but not pepperflash. A "sudo update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree --install" fail too.
[14:56] <janu> ok...
[14:56] <janu> Eric: thank you, do I need to set root delay, or no need?
[14:57] <EriC^^> janu: i'd not use the hdd
[14:57] <janu> ok.. :-), thank you, i will buy one
[14:57] <EriC^^> no problem

[14:58] <SchrodingersScat> The locolhost dav wouldn't be ready until after intervention by the user, so I'm thinking if fstab runs before sshd gets ran, then that would explain why my machine wasn't starting ssh.
[15:24] <kai_> hello
[15:25] <TechChristoph_> i search a open database for barcodes and products
[15:26] <TechChristoph_> some experiences in that matter ?
[15:26] <greenbug> Does anyone have any experience with X sessions/displays? I'm trying to fix an issue with x11vnc and xfce's lock screen.
[15:30] <binary01> does anyone know how to setup lightdm as default from a live cd?
[15:31] <minasota> I created some gpg keys on osx to use with thunderbird and enigmail. I would like to use the same keys on my ubuntu/thunderbird/enigmail setup. I have gnupg2 installed on Ubuntu so that enigmail will play nice. I'm not sure how I transfer the key I generated on osx to my new install?
[15:31] <ub_ubuntu> Hello. How to enable shutdown and logout buttons in the task bar
[15:32] <MonkeyDust> ub_ubuntu  in unity?
[15:32] <ub_ubuntu> Yes
[15:32] <ub_ubuntu> It suddenly disappeared..
[15:33] <greenbug> binary01: I'm not sure, my guess would be passing some sort of boot option from grub maybe?
[15:33] <minasota> I can transfer the key pair fine. I'm not sure where to put then on the Ubuntu install
[15:33] <greenbug> minasota: I would read the documentation for gnupg2 and your mail clients, maybe they mention where they look for gpg keys
[15:33] <MonkeyDust> ub_ubuntu  unity has no shutdown button the launcher, unless you create/put one there
