[00:03] <AbuMaia> Can someone help me recover the mouse double-click speed setting for 16.10?
[00:04] <user_user_> is there a way to say which graphics card to use as a grub permission?
[00:04] <AbuMaia> I find I am unable to open any file by double-clicking unless by clicking very rapidly and repeatedly
[00:05] <wedgie> AbuMaia: settings -> Mouse & touchpad -> Double-click
[00:06] <AbuMaia> wedgie: that setting is missing: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ti6gk766k0v9q5u/Screenshot%20from%202016-12-31%2016-57-49.png?dl=0
[00:07] <wedgie> AbuMaia: uh.......... Not sure. Hopefully someone else knows
[00:12] <arooni> was trying to follow http://tipsonubuntu.com/2016/09/13/vim-8-0-released-install-ubuntu-16-04/ to get latest version of vim; but then i got https://gist.github.com/arooni/6f8d55f2291c26d3a85b7c155d09ea7e .. ideas?
[00:12] <bivo> Since the update a few days ago my wifi has been having weird slowdowns, I've tested on my Mint 18.1, android and windows systems but only this is having slowdowns
[00:13] <kk4ewt> !mint |bivo
[00:13] <bivo> kk4ewt Read it again, I'm asking about my Ubuntu install
[00:14] <OerHeks> arooni, see comments.. "It seems it is compiled without python support"
[00:14] <bivo> kk4ewt I'm saying I tested on other distros and OSs
[00:14] <arooni> OerHeks: the ppa version?
[00:15] <OerHeks> Yes, according to tipsonubuntu
[00:15] <AbuMaia> Can someone help me recover the mouse double-click speed setting for 16.10? https://www.dropbox.com/s/ti6gk766k0v9q5u/Screenshot%20from%202016-12-31%2016-57-49.png?dl=0
[00:15] <OerHeks> .. and then; many of my normal key mappings are not working correctly in vim8.
[00:16] <OerHeks> !ppapurge
[00:21] <AbuMaia> OerHeks: was that for me?
[00:21] <sn9> i think it was for anyone who knows
[00:21] <sn9> much like what i asked
[00:22] <sn9> sadly, no one seems to
[00:22] <OerHeks> AbuMaia, no, for arooni
[00:32] <fearnothing> hi folks, trying to figure out issues with my logging config
[00:32] <FrostyBytes> fearnothing: what are the issues?
[00:33] <fearnothing> I'm trying to send logs that are being sent to /var/log/syslog to a remote server, but not everything I want to send is turning up at the destination
[00:33] <fearnothing> I'm getting cron events, and a couple of other bits and pieces
[00:33] <fearnothing> but what I'm really interested in is the slapd events, and those are not coming through
[00:34] <FrostyBytes> well it must be your configuration post your configuration
[00:35] <fearnothing> coming up, gimme a sec
[00:37] <fearnothing> http://pastebin.com/reLCq5b7
[00:37] <sn9> [Sat 2016-12-31 03:27:39 PM PST] <sn9> yesterday, i rebooted after a long uptime on trusty, applying a bunch of updates incidentally, including bringing the kernel from -101 to -106, and today i notice that ever since, ethernet does not work anymore. i want to be able to fix this without rebooting again. thanx
[00:37] <sn9> [Sat 2016-12-31 03:29:14 PM PST] <sn9> 00:19.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection [8086:1502] (rev 04)
[00:37] <sn9> [Sat 2016-12-31 03:53:43 PM PST] <sn9> as for my issue, i already tried removing and reprobing e1000e, still doesn't work, although the spew in dmesg changed
[00:39] <FrostyBytes> fearnothing: well it doesn't look like you have any entry for slapd
[00:39] <rizonz> when I do a tftp boot my isc server give for tftp the right address but when it does another DHCP request from the OS I get one IP higher
[00:40] <Sean_McG> sn9: is it possible the NIC itself is physically dead?
[00:40] <FrostyBytes> fearnothing: you may want to uncomment the catch-all for var/log/messages block
[00:40] <sn9> Sean_McG: worked fine up until the reboot
[00:41] <Sean_McG> sn9: did it possibly get renumbered (no longer eth0)?
[00:41] <sn9> Sean_McG: no
[00:41] <Sean_McG> nothing in dmesg?
[00:41] <fearnothing> ok, clearly I'm not understanding how this works correctly
[00:41] <sn9> yes, stuff in dmesg
[00:41] <Sean_McG> what does it say?
[00:42] <Sean_McG> (regarding the e1000)
[00:42] <fearnothing> my system doesn't even have a /var/log/messages, how would uncommenting a line that applies to something that doesn't exist be useful?
[00:43] <sn9> before the rmmod and modprobe:
[00:43] <sn9> [61324.589644] e1000e 0000:00:19.0 eth0: Reset adapter unexpectedly

[00:43] <sn9> [74578.226118] e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Up 100 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: Rx/Tx
[00:43] <sn9> oops
[00:43] <Sean_McG> those lines both suggest the NIC is fine
[00:43] <sn9> after:
[00:43] <sn9> [74588.258943] e1000e 0000:00:19.0 eth0: Reset adapter unexpectedly

[00:44] <sn9> cut off a line
[00:44] <Sean_McG> ah hrm... autonegotiation failed? or do you only have a 10/100 Mbit switch?
[00:44] <sn9> but there it is
[00:44] <sn9> the switch i have it plugged into is 10/100
[00:44] <Sean_McG> (not sure what TSO is)
[00:45] <fearnothing> FrostyBytes - any word on that question?
[00:50] <phwarbird> hello, I'm trying to reinstall grub from a ubuntu live cd
[00:50] <phwarbird> `sudo update-grub` gives me an error: failed to get canonical path of '/cow'
[00:51] <sn9> Sean_McG: another pkg that got updated was linux-firmware
[00:55] <Sean_McG> sn9: that could be your culprit
[00:55] <Sean_McG> sn9: is this machine a server?
[00:55] <sn9> Sean_McG: changelog doesn't mention a change to e1000e, and it's a laptop
[00:56] <Sean_McG> sn9: my theory is that maybe something needs a BIOS or EFI update to go along with the firmware
[00:58] <Sean_McG> sn9: in any case, I'm not sure this is fixable without a reboot. maybe try downgrading linux-firmware and see if that helps
[01:07] <stayonthehustle> clear
[01:24] <nchambers> how can I tell what process/pid I have running on port 53
[01:25] <sn9> sudo netstat -plunt
[01:25] <Sean_McG> most likely it is dnsmasq
[01:25] <sn9> but that will tell him pid
[01:25] <Sean_McG> tru dat
[01:31] <nchambers> thanks guys
[01:32] <LordNelthon> does anyone use oh-my-zsh and agnoster in gnome-terminal? If so, how do you solve the issue in line height?
[01:34] <dbclk> folks..i'm running this .sh file to install mariadb and install a blank password for root but, it isn't working https://gist.github.com/dbclkclk/4f89560334ed6f97382241a6fb66db27
[01:34] <dbclk> any ideas?
[01:39] <radens> hello, I'm on an arm computer and I'd like to install gcc for cross compiling to an x86 target.
[01:39] <radens> what package should I look for?
[01:48] <smaudet> Happy New Years
[01:49] <sentre> 3 hours and ten minutes to go for me
[01:49] <sentre> but happy new years :)
[01:54] <Guest1842> hello, how can I configure a wireless network from the command line and if I restart it connects automatically to the same network?
[02:03] <icyjug> i want to disable ipv6 on the runtime
[02:03] <icyjug> i was thinking using sysctl
[02:03] <amnix> I am getting very low wifi speed on ubuntu compared to my phone or any other windows devices.
[02:03] <sn9> Sean_McG: your suggestion made me google: e1000e "firmware" linux
[02:03] <amnix> why is that?
[02:03] <icyjug> and the kernel module "ipv6.disabled=1"
[02:03] <sn9> Sean_McG: found this, will test: http://www.linux.org.ru/forum/desktop/11387144
[02:04] <Sean_McG> sn9: good luck
[02:04] <icyjug> would that simply be sysctl ipv6.disable=1 ?
[02:04] <sn9> Guest1842: depends on whether or not you are using network manager
[02:04] <icyjug> or doesnt it work that way
[02:05] <amnix> so
[02:05] <amnix> ?
[02:07] <Guest1842> hello, how can I configure a wireless network from the command line and if I restart it connects automatically to the same network?
[02:07] <sn9> Guest1842: depends on whether or not you are using network manager
[02:09] <Guest1842> sn9 Im not. I only have cli and not gui
[02:09] <sn9> Guest1842: make sure it's not installed, first
[02:10] <Guest1842> sn9 I just installed it. Ill remove it. How do I enable wifi then?
[02:11] <Random832> can someone pastebin /etc/fstab? it's a long story
[02:11] <ItalianBreadP> yo
[02:11] <ItalianBreadP> guys
[02:11] <priporg> what is fstab?
[02:11] <ItalianBreadP> what's up? I needed some quick help.
[02:12] <Sean_McG> (f)ile (s)ystem (tab)le
[02:12] <priporg> Sean_McG, nice
[02:12] <priporg> Sean_McG, is PPA specific for Ubuntu?
[02:13] <hggdh> ItalianBreadP: just ask your question
[02:13] <Sean_McG> priporg: yes
[02:13] <ItalianBreadP> umm
[02:14] <hggdh> priporg: pretty much. Other distros may have something similar, though, but PPAs are for *buntu
[02:14] <ItalianBreadP> I cant seem to get apt-get to work on my new linux system
[02:14] <priporg> I read there are two ways to add a PPA in Ubuntu. Not sure why there is a difference.
[02:14] <sn9> priporg: older, newer
[02:14] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: can you show the output in terminal when you run "sudo apt update" on paste.ubuntu.com ?
[02:15] <ItalianBreadP> okay
[02:15] <priporg> sn9, it had something to do with the type of PPA...
[02:15] <sn9> no
[02:15] <k1l> priporg: and yes, ppa is specific to ubuntu. its 3rd party repos build and hosted on launchpad.net
[02:15] <k1l> !ppa | priporg
[02:17] <priporg> for example, sudo add-apt-repository ppa:<name> OR sudo add-apt-repository <url>
[02:17] <k1l> priporg: the first one is a ppa. the second one is another 3rd party repo hosted somewhere else
[02:18] <ItalianBreadP> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720131/
[02:18] <priporg> ah..got it!
[02:18] <priporg> k1l, thanks. i understand now,
[02:18] <ItalianBreadP> if i try to download any app through apt-get, though, it doesn't work
[02:19] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: you still have the cdrom entries in your sources.list activated. go to system settings > updates und software  and disable the cd rom there
[02:19] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: and you have already enabled some ppa with kritalime which is misconfigurerd
[02:20] <ItalianBreadP> hmm
[02:20] <ItalianBreadP> sorry if this looks like a basic problem for you. I'm very new to ubuntu, so I don't understand some stuff
[02:21] <ItalianBreadP> in which tab do I disable the cd rom?
[02:21] <priporg> Can someone walk me through how to install Nvidia driver 304.134 properly on Ubuntu? I believe I tried almost everything. The previous update to driver gave me endless login loop. After updating the driver to the latest via adding ppa and running sudo apt-get update I get a black screen after login in GUI. Help is much appreciated.
[02:22] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: on the second tab, called "other sources/programs" there should be a checkmark for the cdrom. disable that
[02:22] <ItalianBreadP> ah, yep!
[02:22] <ItalianBreadP> disabled it
[02:23] <ItalianBreadP> lol sorry, my network kinda dropped
[02:23] <priporg> I then tried the manual install via Nvidia installer, it complained "failed to load Nvidia Module" during installation, And on reboot gave me a black screen after gui login.
[02:23] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: ok, close the updates and programs window. the in terminal run "sudo apt update" again
[02:23] <ItalianBreadP> alrigh
[02:23] <ItalianBreadP> t
[02:25] <ItalianBreadP> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720146/
[02:25] <k1l> ok, now please run "grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | nc termbin.com 9999" which will output an url, show that url here please.
[02:26] <ItalianBreadP> http://termbin.com/4xma
[02:27] <priporg> w.if-not-true-then-false.com/2015/fedora-nvidia-guide/ <-- this guide says Nvidia driver 304.xx requires a patched Nvidia Installer as it's incompatible with certain kernels. I'm wondering if this is the same case with some Ubuntu Kernels? Anyone know?
[02:28] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: ok, we need to delete one line of a file, which is causing that last error: so please do "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kritalime-ubuntu-ppa-xenial.list", then delete  the last line (which is the same as the 2nd line). then press ctrol+o for saving. ctrl+x for exit.
[02:28] <Sean_McG> priporg: possibly, I use the graphics-drivers PPA
[02:28] <Sean_McG> just installed nvidia-370
[02:28] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: after that "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" and you are good to go
[02:29] <k1l> priporg: its 2017 now and there is a lot that changed since 2015. so if you name your exact card, exact ubuntu and kernel others could help in here
[02:30] <priporg> Sean_McG, I'm using graphics-drivers PPA as well. Until most recent update to driver 304.134 I was getting endless login loop. Now just getting black screen after gui login.
[02:30] <ItalianBreadP> This shows up on the bottom:   File Name to Write: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kritalime-ubuntu-ppa-xenial.list
[02:31] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: yes, press enter then to make it save
[02:31] <Sean_McG> priporg: which GPU and Ubuntu release are you using?
[02:31] <priporg> k1l, I'm using geforce 7400 go, which uses drivers Nvidia 304.134. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Not sure on the kernel.
[02:31]  * Sean_McG grumbles about laggy ssh connection
[02:31] <ItalianBreadP> okay, cool
[02:31] <bivo> Anyone else getting flakey wifi speeds since the recent updates?
[02:31] <priporg> Sean_McG, ^
[02:31] <ItalianBreadP> should I try apt-get to install an app now?
[02:32] <Talla> Hi all I'm in need of some help
[02:32] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: i would first run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" to make sure you got all the updates installed. then go ahead and install the new programs you like
[02:32] <Talla> I tried to upgrade from 15.04 to 16.10 (some steps in between) and due to a power cut... I'm having a lotta trouble
[02:32] <bazhang> state your issue please talla
[02:32] <AbuMaia> Talla: what kind of trouble?
[02:33] <Sean_McG> priporg: I wonder if 304 even works on the kernel in Ubuntu 16.04
[02:33] <Talla> Well for one, my old installation won't start up
[02:33] <tomreyn> Talla: what was your upgrade path, how did you upgrade? what was the last upgrade you started?
[02:33] <Sean_McG> looks like my upgrade to 16.04 broke my nameserver... boo hiss
[02:33] <k1l> Sean_McG: priporg there is an nvidia-304 package on 16.04 and that works. maybe that card needs some special treatment
[02:33] <priporg> Sean_McG, I wonder the same. I know it works on Fedora but only using a patched Nvidia installer as it's incomptible with some of their kernels.
[02:34] <Talla> I started by using the termin upgrade-manager -d or some such
[02:34] <Sean_McG> k1l: possibly, not sure myself. I have a GTX 1070
[02:34] <k1l> priporg: that is not the case on ubuntu. ubuntu ships nvidia packages
[02:34] <Talla> since the software center wanted nothing to do with it.
[02:34] <ItalianBreadP> k1l: I get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720170/
[02:34] <Talla> I was just about to complete the upgrade between 15.10 and 16.04 when the powercut struck midway though.
[02:35] <Talla> I think I was just past the lightdm selection stage.
[02:35] <Sean_McG> anyways I'mma take a break. back later.
[02:35] <priporg> k1l, i tried the shipped nvidia 304 package and was getting endless login loop. tried lots of remedies to no avail.
[02:35] <Talla> When I tried to launch I now get: Failed to start load kernel module
[02:35] <ItalianBreadP> yo priporg: I had the same issue. Did you try turning off secure boot on BIOS?
[02:35] <Talla> I tried to launch in recovery mode but
[02:36] <Talla> I can't access sda1 because it refuses to mount
[02:36] <Talla> and I can't get dpkg to reconfigure because it's locked (on sda1)
[02:36] <priporg> ItalianBreadP, no, but i'm not sure I have secure boot. i'll check later.
[02:36] <Talla> The reason it won't mount properly is because it is missing some "IO iso885...something or other"
[02:36] <Talla> So far as I can tell
[02:36] <Talla> aka: Royally screwed
[02:37] <ItalianBreadP> priporg: yeah, you should haha. I had the same issue yesterday and it fixed as soon as I turned off secureboot
[02:37] <Talla> In the mean time, I've booted a live disk in the hopes of saving my data
[02:37] <Talla> I have 300GB of data and no where to put it.
[02:37] <Talla> I can't simply upgrade (which I would like to do) because...well it just refuses.
[02:38] <priporg> k1l, Sean_McG, Admittedly I did a manual nvidia install first before using Nvidia-304 package. Not sure if that screwed things up?
[02:38] <k1l> priporg: yes, possible
[02:38] <priporg> ItalianBreadP, what driver are you using?
[02:38] <Talla> And I have no idea how to partition off my data so that it's protected from the install (I'd like to reintergrate it later)
[02:38] <ItalianBreadP> priporg: I used 375, I believe
[02:38] <Random832> seriously though can someone pastebin /etc/fstab mine got deleted and i need an example of a good one
[02:38] <ItalianBreadP> k1l: did you get my pastebin? I still seem to get the same issue
[02:39] <sn9> Random832: 14.04, or 16.04?
[02:39] <ItalianBreadP> (or paste.ubuntu.com)
[02:39] <Random832> sn9, not sure it really matters but 16.04
[02:39] <k1l> ItalianBreadP: i am looking into it.
[02:39] <priporg> ItalianBreadP, yeah you're ok. I'm like trying to run the last supported Nvidia driver on Ubuntu.
[02:39] <ItalianBreadP> k1l: thank you
[02:39] <Random832> Talla, i had the same error message while dealing with my issue, try mount -o iocharset=cp437
[02:39] <tomreyn> Talla: "IO iso885..."  I am a personal witness to this, because my blog which contains more evidence about google and microsoft collaborating is being suppressed: http://pressthejustice.wordpress.com
[02:41] <Talla> Someone ban him
[02:41] <ItalianBreadP> I still get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720187/
[02:41] <tomreyn> usuario: this is not a discussion forum, please stop.
[02:42] <priporg> Before I check my Bios, what is the difference between apt and apt-get?
[02:42] <usuario> if you dont know the differnce you are total fucked
[02:43] <FrostyBytes> hey I've been using ubuntu for years without knowing the difference
[02:43] <priporg> they seem to work the same...
[02:43] <k1l> priporg: apt is the new command trying to merge some apt-get, apt-cache and other apt- commands
[02:43] <xangua> usuario: don't do that again, thanks
[02:43] <nohacker> the hacking is being diverted to electric grid hacking, actually they collected and manipulated information using google search, gmail and windows OS
[02:43] <ItalianBreadP> usuario must be a user who lost interest in linux ahaha
[02:43] <nohacker> #savethewest
[02:44] <priporg> k1l, should i be using apt over apt-get then?
[02:44] <k1l> priporg: yes.
[02:44] <tomreyn> !ops | nohacker usuario
[02:44] <FrostyBytes> if it ain't busted don't fix it -- I will keep using apt-get
[02:44] <Talla> Before I go rebooting my system with that iochartset idea...
[02:44] <Talla> I wanna try the updating root again
[02:45] <priporg> FrostyBytes, I'm guessing apt is completely backward compatible with apt-get ...
[02:45] <k1l> FrostyBytes: apt-get and others are still fine to use. but with apt the changed the naming a bit to be less confusing (apt-get dist-upgrade vs. apt full-upgrade for example)
[02:45] <Italianbreadp_> I'm back, k1l
[02:45] <Italianbreadp_> did I miss anything?
[02:46] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: <k1l> ItalianBreadP: some of your 32bit stuff is making issues. try a "sudo apt-get -f install"
[02:46] <Random832> Talla, rebooting? i thought this error was from a mount command
[02:46] <Talla> No
[02:46] <Talla> This is from trying to upgrade my system
[02:47] <Talla> and it failing...
[02:47] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: already tried bro, got another issue popping up
[02:47] <Talla> There we are
[02:47] <Talla> gonna reboot
[02:47] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: which one?
[02:47] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720205/
[02:47] <nohacker> not true. not only did russia manipulate the elections, russia took over all media using indians working there and is now absolutely manipulating the media by force. I am a personal witness to this, because my blog is being suppressed: http://pressthejustice.wordpress.com
[02:48] <xangua> !ops | nohacker again
[02:48] <hggdh> nohacker: stop
[02:48] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: removing apt is not good.
[02:48] <nohacker> ok
[02:49] <cfoch> hi
[02:49] <Italianbreadp_> why'd I quit?
[02:49] <Italianbreadp_> lol
[02:49] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: better remove aptitude since that seems to make a lot of issues
[02:49] <cfoch> what packages does libboost-all-dev install?
[02:49] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: how do i do that?
[02:49] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: sudo apt remove aptitude

[02:51] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: another error! http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720213/
[02:52] <Talla2> okay I am in recovery root, and trying to apt-get update but dpkg demands a reconfigure.
[02:52] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: it seems that something made a mess with your system. were there other PPAs in use before?
[02:52] <Talla2> however apparently that's on a read-only system
[02:53] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: I tried installing java and steam manually before
[02:53] <Talla2> any way through this?
[02:55] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: will I have to completely reset linux on my machine?
[02:55] <Italianbreadp_> (By the way, if you need to know, this is in a dual boot setup with w10)
[02:55] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: no, dualboot doesnt interfer with that.
[02:56] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: alright
[02:56] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: i am thinking about a possible way out that dependency loop there. somewhat from your manual installs must have made that loop.
[02:56] <Talla2> anyone?
[02:57] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: I mean, I'm fine with having a clean install with my system again
[02:57] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: just takes time haha
[02:58] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: "sudo apt remove aptitude:i386"
[02:59] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: what is the output of "dpkg --print-architecture"?
[03:00] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: it shows amd64. my OS is in 64 bit, in case you need to know
[03:00] <k1l> and "dpkg --print-foreign-architectures" shows i386?
[03:01] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: yep! it shows i386
[03:01] <Italianbreadp_> and sudo apt remove aptitude: i386 gets me this paste.ubuntu.com/23720223/
[03:02] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: "sudo apt install google-chrome-stable"
[03:03] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: same issue, unmet dependencies
[03:04] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720240/
[03:08] <Talla2> is there somewhere more appropriate to ask?
[03:08] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: apt-cache policy libudev1:i386 libudev1 udev aptitude:i386 ppa-purge| nc termbin.com 9999"
[03:09] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: http://termbin.com/8o94
[03:10] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: sudo apt install libudev1
[03:13] <cfoch> have you installed ICU?
[03:13] <parsnip> hi, any ideas for this: "man: can't execute pager: Too many levels of symbolic links" http://sprunge.us/ffiF
[03:13] <cfoch> compile
[03:14] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: again--same issue :/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720279/
[03:19] <k1l> this is somewhat the sledgehammer method: sudo apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-depends" install libudev1
[03:21] <Ben64> parsnip: ls -l /usr/bin/pager /etc/alternatives/pager /bin/less
[03:21] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: if that doesnt help now. you can try to remove all the packages making issues there and try to reinstall them afterwards with apt. because the next step would be a reinstall. somewhat of your manual installs must have made that mess.
[03:22] <k1l> Italianbreadp_: i need to leave now. maybe others can assist then
[03:22] <Italianbreadp_> k1l: alright, thanks anyway for the help
[03:22] <Italianbreadp_> much appreciated
[03:28] <parsnip> Ben64: seems to be /usr/bin/pager -> /etc/alternatives/pager -> /bin/less http://sprunge.us/SbTi
[03:28] <parsnip> there's also /usr/bin/less -> /bin/less
[03:31] <Ben64> parsnip: that looks normal

[04:38] <plshelp> how do i change which partition my computer boots from
[04:39] <plshelp> is it the boot flag
[04:42] <Ben64> plshelp: you'll get better results if you explain what you're trying to accomplish
[04:43] <plshelp> i want a prompt for which partition to boot to on startup
[04:44] <plshelp> i have partitions for windows 10 and ubuntu and it automatically logs into windows
[04:44] <sn9> plshelp: then you need to recover grub
[04:44] <sn9> unless you use uefi
[04:44] <plshelp> no
[04:52] <lethu> plshelp, you need this https://sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair-cd/home/Home/
[04:52] <plshelp> just installed it on a live cd of ubuntu
[04:52] <lethu> plshelp, you can make a bootable usb stick out of it with unetbootin
[04:53] <lethu> good
[04:53] <plshelp> is recommended repair probably fine?
[04:53] <lethu> plshelp, yes
[05:00] <mcasmkdsa> jj
[05:00] <plshelp> installing grub in a specific partition automatically boots to it?
[05:00] <Ben64> no
[05:00] <plshelp> if i specify the disk does it prompt me
[05:00] <Ben64> what
[05:01] <plshelp> i feel like a small child pestering parents with impossible questions
[05:01] <Ben64> grub goes onto the hard drive for example sda, not a partition like sda1
[05:01] <plshelp> it offered the option of sda or sda1
[05:02] <Ben64> and you chose sda1?
[05:02] <plshelp> neither
[05:02] <plshelp> i am deciding
[05:02] <Ben64> well thats why it doesn't boot

[05:51] <Takagami> HAPPY NEW YEAR!
[05:53] <uxfi> Thanks so much Takagami
[05:54] <Takagami> Just thought I would pop in and say hello! Doing some server VM installs... on new years eve... good times...
[06:20] <str8flush> new to irc how to i look at the topics
[06:23] <linuxpc> can we rely on the page hit ranking in distrowatch.com. And also, there is custom filter option to choose distros based on certain specific needs like linux for beginners, for old computers etc. Does it provide a reliable information to decide on a particular distro?
[06:24] <allorder> linuxpc: its a bit like horoscope
[06:24] <str8flush> topics
[06:24] <str8flush> ?
[06:28] <linuxpc> can you suggest some websites like distrowatch.com where I can get some info on various linux distros?
[06:29] <PythonProblems> Hi all. After updating Ubuntu Packages on my little HP Microserver, I now receive an error when I try to run deluged. https://paste.ubuntu.com/23720726/ Can anyone give me so advice as to how I can troubleshoot? Apologies if this is the wrong place to be asking!
[06:29] <allorder> linuxpc: its a good place to get info, dont take rank number too seriously
[06:30] <Takagami> @PythonProblems ooks like the python version / syntax may have changed? Tried updateing Deluge if there is one available?
[06:30] <linuxpc> allorder, ok.
[06:36] <PythonProblems> @Takagami Thanks for the fast reply! I don't think there is a Deluged update available. I added the deluge-team/ppa repository, and ran apt-get update and still end up with the same error when I attempt to run the daemon.
[06:37] <Takagami> You may lose some settings but have you tried to reconfigure the package since the system updates?
[06:37] <Takagami> 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure deluge*'
[06:37] <Takagami> Just a stab in the dark...
[06:43] <PythonProblems> @Takagami Hmm. It's a headless configuration on a little HP MicroServer. So I ran the update for Deluged* and not Deluge, but I still receive the same error: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23720776/
[06:44] <PythonProblems> ran the dpkg-reconfigure command, not Update. Apologies
[06:51] <Takagami> PythonProblems not sure what else to try... I'm not up on python and I don't use Deluge or the Deluge headless daemon... But from the error it looks like the python code that deluge uses is not being executed properly by the version of python installed... maybe try to roll back any python updates that occured, if any?
[06:52] <Takagami> If the system updates you installed have been out for a few days, there may be some entries on the Deluge github for bug reports? I dunno...
[06:54] <kang0> Drone` hi
[06:54] <PythonProblems> Ok. Thanks for your help mate. I'll keep investigating. Cheers
[06:55] <Takagami> No worries PythonProblems! HNY!!
[06:56] <PythonProblems> same to you!
[06:59] <Takagami> I wonder if my web cacheing service is doing weird things with apt-get.... maybe that's why it has size mismatch issues...
[07:02] <hila> hi
[07:03] <hila> i want help about this question  http://askubuntu.com/questions/857155/how-to-create-system-restore-point-with-rsync
[07:03] <pavlos> ufw question ... I deny port 22 for both in and out (ufw deny in 22, ufw deny out 22) but nmap still reports 22/tcp open
[07:04] <eelstrebor> pavlos, did you reload ufw?
[07:04] <pavlos> how?
[07:05] <eelstrebor> sudo ufw reload
[07:05] <ballpen> pavlos I don't understand the mystery of ufw :)
[07:05] <pavlos> eelstrebor, let me try ... ballpen, ufw is fine
[07:05] <ballpen> Sure it is
[07:06] <pavlos> eelstrebor, nmap continues to say port 22 open after reload
[07:07] <Takagami> pavlos, also, unless your system is directly connected to your ISP with no router, check your port forward rules on your router. Sometimes it will report as open if it is forwarding, even if the destination is closed? Just an idea...
[07:07] <eelstrebor> it will if you're scanning the localhost
[07:09] <eelstrebor> pavlos, try using grc.com "shields up" app
[07:09] <pavlos> I'm working on my 16.04 system, I have ssh running. I decided to deny access to 22, hence the rules. But, from another term I can still ssh 0
[07:09] <eelstrebor> or scan the firewall from another pc on the networl
[07:09] <pavlos> I thought ufw would block access
[07:10] <Takagami> I like https://pentest-tools.com/network-vulnerability-scanning/tcp-port-scanner-online-nmap personally...
[07:10] <eelstrebor> pavlos, if you did it right it should block the port - what does ufw status show you?
[07:11] <pavlos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720855/
[07:12] <Takagami> GRC's brute force password calculator is awesome! 76.8 trillion trillion trillion million years... hehehehe
[07:14] <nohacker> Not only did Russia manipulate elections using Indians working in different places, they are noe forcefully manipulating the media. I know it personally because they are supressing my blog: https://pressthejustice.wordpress.com/
[07:14] <ducasse> !ot | nohacker
[07:15] <eelstrebor> pavlos, looks ok to me - you could try being more specific by executing ufw deny 22/tcp
[07:16] <pavlos> eelstrebor, done ... pastebin is http://paste.ubuntu.com/23720874/
[07:17] <eelstrebor> pavlos, what does a port scan shor now
[07:19] <pavlos> nmap canyon reports 22/tcp open and nc -zv canyon 22 reports Connection to canyon 22 port [tcp/ssh] succeeded! canyon my hostname <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:23] <eelstrebor> pavlos, don't know what to tell you - the port should be blocked - maybe try  ufw reject 22/tcp? with no rules ufw will block all incoming traffic  - you might try running ufw without any rules and see if that blocks incoming attempts to port 22
[07:25] <pavlos> eelstrebor, I tried reject rule instead of deny ... same behavior. It is strange b/c I expected not to be able to ssh 0 ... I will read more on ufw. Ty and happy new year
[07:32] <ducasse> pavlos: is ufw enabled at all?
[07:34] <pavlos> ducasse, yes, ufw enable and ufw status reports the DENY ports
[07:35] <pavlos> I must be missing something simple
[07:36] <pavlos> also tried ufw deny ssh (kinda simple, using protocol name)
[07:41] <Takagami> Yep... looks like my web cache messes with the apt repositories.... ugh... Looks like some exception rules are in order...
[07:43] <al2o3-cr> it should be as simple as sudo ufw deny port 22
[07:49] <piousminion> Hi, I've added "ppa:materieller/teamspeak3" and ran "apt-get update", but it's packages do not appear when I run "apt-cache search teamspeak".  What am I missing?

[07:50] <sachin> Hello, which is the best schedule app for ubuntu?
[07:51] <piousminion> sachin: cron?
[07:52] <cfhowlett> sachin, there is no "best".  they are free to install and test for yourself - as you should
[07:54] <sachin> never tried cron, and which one works best for you,
[07:54] <piousminion> sachin: I'm pretty sure you're using cron right now.
[07:54] <cfhowlett> sachin, dude. there are over 1000 people in this channel so we do not poll here.  ask #ubuntu-offtopic for that kind of stuff
[07:54] <pavlos> or anacron as well
[07:54] <sachin> Okay, what kind of activities is this channel mainly for?
[07:55] <pavlos> support
[07:55] <piousminion> sachin: "ubuntu"-specific support. a "schedule app" has nothing to do with "ubuntu" itself.
[07:55] <tayzar> hello
[07:55] <sachin> Yeah, I get it.
[07:55] <tayzar> yeah
[07:57] <ducasse> piousminion: which ubuntu version are you on?
[07:57] <pavlos> piousminion, I assume you added the ppa with ... sudo add-apt-repository ppa:materieller/teamspeak3
[07:57] <piousminion>  ducasse: xenial
[07:57] <tayzar> trusty
[07:58] <piousminion> ducasse: 16.04.1 LTS
[07:58] <ducasse> piousminion: no errors when you run apt update?
[07:58] <piousminion> ducasse: none
[07:58] <piousminion> pavlos: correct
[07:59] <ducasse> piousminion: any output from 'apt policy  teamspeak3-client'?
[07:59] <pavlos> piousminion, let me try ...
[08:00] <piousminion> ducasse: N: Unable to locate package teamspeak3-client
[08:00] <ducasse> piousminion: take a look at the .list file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[08:01] <wrl_> about an hour ago, I rebooted from xfce.  I did not get any of the normal bootup messages and the xlogin screen was blank.  However, the console screens are fine.  No errors in /var/log/xlog.  Any ideas?

[08:02] <piousminion> pavlos: odd. Ideas?
[08:02] <piousminion> This is a fresh install as of last night btw.  Not that the average user couldn't mess it up in that time. :P
[08:02] <pavlos> there is no teamspeak but there is a teamspeak3-client (and a teamspeak3-server)
[08:03] <piousminion> pavlos: I'm aware. None of those appear in the search.
[08:03] <pavlos> I did apt-cache search teamspeak*
[08:04] <piousminion> pavlos: I did that just now. No change.
[08:05] <pavlos> could it be that the repo did not load correctly?
[08:05] <piousminion> No idea. No errors.

[09:27] <zerorax> hey, I'm having trouble with installing ubuntu on my laptop. it installs fine, but I have the dual-gpu setup with intel and nvidia graphics, and it tries to use the nvidia card when it boots which doesn't work. I can enter rescue mode and get a generic VGA interface, but then I don't have internet to apt-get nvidia-current... any suggestions? I tried the nosetmode boot option and no luck
[09:27] <zerorax> (using ubuntu server and mini iso's)
[09:28] <zerorax> (16.04)
[09:29] <sebsebseb> zerorax: ethernet may work in recovery mode I guess
[09:29] <sebsebseb> zerorax: but no wireless woudn't suprise me
[09:29] <zerorax> I don't have ethernet as an option
[09:29] <sebsebseb> zerorax: also it can get a bit confussed between a Nivia or intel when it's both I guess, but I don't have one with both
[09:29] <sebsebseb> zerorax: this is more of a guess than aything else, but I guess you can set it up yourself telling it which to use or not use etc
[09:30] <zerorax> the solution is to install nvidia-current , but I need networking to do that, and I tried all the workarounds people posted on different forums with no luck
[09:30] <sebsebseb> zerorax: Ubuntu server is not meant  to have a GUI
[09:30] <sebsebseb> zerorax: by the way
[09:30] <zerorax> I don't want a GUI!!!
[09:30] <sebsebseb> and mini isoes   uhw hat's that
[09:30] <zerorax> I just want ubuntu to boot
[09:30] <sebsebseb> oh ok
[09:31] <zerorax> I want to use this laptop as a home server... There's no bios option to disable the nvidia graphics
[09:31] <sebsebseb> zerorax: bios no, but in Ubuntu itself you can probably do it some how
[09:31] <zerorax> perhaps
[09:31] <zerorax> but i can't get there to try
[09:32] <zerorax> i just get a black screen after grub
[09:32] <sebsebseb> zerorax: well via the command line, you may be able to do something even, but not sure
[09:32] <sebsebseb> oh a black screen after grub, not even into recery mode and its terminal ?
[09:32] <zerorax> I can get into recovery mode
[09:32] <sebsebseb> in the recovery mode terminal, you can probably do something, but I don't know the commands
[09:32] <koffeinfriedhof> zerorax: you may chroot into this system using a live-stick or similar. thats perhaps easier that using recovery mode
[09:32] <zerorax> but I can't get into the system with wlan0 working so that I can install nvidia-current
[09:33] <koffeinfriedhof> *than
[09:33] <sebsebseb> zerorax: you can probably disable nvidia on the command line forceing it to use Intel
[09:33] <zerorax> I dislike this situation
[09:33] <zerorax> I've been messing around for 3 hours with this
[09:33] <sebsebseb> well  you wanted ngvidia disabled it sounded like
[09:33] <sebsebseb> so it wouldl use intel graphic s instead
[09:34] <zerorax> the reason I use ubuntu is because I want things to just work
[09:34] <sebsebseb> well that won't alwasy be the case, depending on hardware
[09:34] <zerorax> I'm frustrated
[09:35] <sebsebseb> uh yeah
[09:35] <koffeinfriedhof> chroot is easy and provides your needed networking.
[09:35] <zerorax> yeah, that's true
[09:35] <sebsebseb> try what koffeinfriedhof is saying I guess
[09:35] <zerorax> do i need to set up any symlinks for the chroot?
[09:38] <koffeinfriedhof> zerorax: http://askubuntu.com/questions/56687/how-to-chroot-ubuntu1 bit older but should work
[09:38] <ducasse> zerorax: did you boot with 'nosetmode' or was that just a typo?
[09:39] <zerorax> I booted with whatever the string is that the forum posts suggested, I don't remember the exact wording
[09:42] <koffeinfriedhof> zerorax: nomodeset is xserver related. until 14.04 to use bootoption "text" or "textonly". But this does not work > 14.04 and I do not know newer commands :)
[09:42] <zerorax> damn
[09:44] <koffeinfriedhof> so, like I said: start live-medium, mount your installation and chroot into..
[09:44] <buslique> happy new year!

[10:07] <sebsebseb> hi
[10:42] <therue> hey guys, quick question, what are some good special characters to use as folder name to make it show on top/first? :D
[10:47] <ducasse> therue: why not just use '1111-whatever'?
[10:47] <therue> ugly :D

[11:25] <cfhowlett> !install | one808
[11:33] <J1sy> Hello
[11:34] <meldron> hey guys, does somebody know where to get/how to install a newer version of cal in ubuntu?
[11:36] <cfhowlett> meldron, sudo apt install cal
[11:36] <J1sy> Sudo apt get install
[11:36] <J1sy> sudo apt get update
[11:36] <cfhowlett> meldron, sudo apt full-upgrade will bring you all available updates
[11:36] <meldron> cfhowlett: there is no such package, i though cal is from util-linux, but ubuntu useses this old bsd version which does not accept -M or anyhting
[11:37] <meldron> so there is now option to let weeks start on monday for example
[11:39] <J1sy> If you say so get the debian software package
[11:40] <meldron> J1sy: I think debian uses the same package
[11:40] <cfhowlett> meldron, cal -m works just fine in 16.04
[11:40] <meldron> cfhowlett: hm not for me
[11:40] <cfhowlett> meldron, man cal          is your friend
[11:41] <meldron> yeah yeah i know, but it is not working vor cal
[11:41] <meldron> there is only ncal -M, this option is not working for normal cal
[11:41] <bivo> Why is there no audio equalizer in the repos? Something like that should be absolutely basic. I should be able to watch something like this and not have the anvil ring make my ears bleed while also being able to hear what they are saying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv3dPHneGI8
[11:42] <cfhowlett> meldron, cal -m January http://paste.ubuntu.com/23721599/
[11:42] <meldron> http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/cal.1.html i am looking for the cal version which has this manual
[11:43] <meldron> cfhowlett: yeah cal -M in this version is not working for cal only for ncal, but there a other cal versions, may be some one here knows where to get them
[11:44] <atralheaven_> Can I backup my downloaded packages from ubuntu 16.10 to use it for installing them on ubuntu 16.04 on a system so I won't have to download them again?
[11:44] <cfhowlett> atralheaven_, downloaded?  not installed via apt?
[11:45] <Ichimusai> meldron: Try this "ncal -M -C" that uses ncal but forces the ouput to be the same of cal.
[11:45] <atralheaven_> cfhowlett: they're already installed, on ubuntu 16.10, I want to install ubuntu 16.04 on a system and I don't want to download them again to install them, is it possible?
[11:45] <meldron> Ichimusai: thanks
[11:46] <cfhowlett> 16.10 packages will not run in 16.04
[11:46] <ducasse> cfhowlett: 'cal -M' (capital 'M') fails here as well, but is listed in the man page. bug?
[11:46] <atralheaven_> cfhowlett: even packages like firefox etc?
[11:46] <Ichimusai> meldron: Something is borked in cal in Ubuntu, it should be notified upstreams, the man page mentons cal -M but it actually do not work.
[11:46] <cfhowlett> atralheaven_, mixing repos and version leads to tears and anguish.  don't do it.
[11:47] <meldron> Ichimusai: yeah read about it on lunchpad, it least the should update the man page that this option is only woriking for ncal
[11:47] <atralheaven_> so I have to download them again... thanks!
[11:47] <meldron> thats one of the reasons i am looking for another cal verison but i just cant find one
[11:48] <Ichimusai> meldron: I think there is pretty much just cal in there. Of course you can roll your own from source in worst case.
[11:49] <meldron> Ichimusai: do you know where i can get the sources
[11:49] <Ichimusai> meldron: Anyways, if the "ncal -M -C" trick solves your problem it may be worthwilte to notify the package maintainer about the issue (again) and see if they will fix it.
[11:50] <Ichimusai> meldron: You probably have to go back to the BSD and port it again, should not be too difficult, https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/usr.bin/ncal/
[11:51] <Ichimusai> meldron: Considering most others seems to have pulled the same port and probably suffers the same bug.
[11:51] <Ichimusai> meldron: Anyways, ncal and cal is the same program actually, so I would not put too much time on that.
[11:52] <meldron> Ichimusai: i think i had a newer/other verison on arch linux, may be i can get the source from them
[11:52] <Ichimusai> meldron: Sure, that's one way.
[11:54] <joci> hii happy new year
[11:54] <joci> i got a little question
[11:55] <joci> i trid chrome and firefox both of them are damn slow, which browser are you guys recomending to use ?
[11:55] <cfhowlett> !browser | joci
[11:57] <Ichimusai> joci: It is my experience that if the web browser is slow it is your specs that is a bit low and you may benefit from using a light-weight windows manager instead. You probably will want to use chrome or firefox.
[12:00] <joci> Ichimusai what is light-weight windows manager stands for ?
[12:02] <raju> Please help me. I am really in despair. I was using Xubuntu 16.04 and everything was going fine until my wifi stopped working. It would not be detected. I tried the solutions at https://superuser.com/questions/1162152/wifi-driver-not-detected-in-xubuntu-16-04-for-dell-inspiron-15r-5521 but none would work. Finally, I decided re-installing Xubuntu and when the OS booted up for the first time, the wifi adapter was detected. But again aft
[12:03] <hacker> gun
[12:03] <raju> Please help me.
[12:03] <raju> I am really out of options
[12:04] <hacker> what you want
[12:05] <hacker> install other system upgraded 16.10
[12:06] <cfhowlett> !wifi | raju
[12:07] <arulmagi> hello, please help me how to connect my laptop with my mobile using Wifi?
[12:07] <cfhowlett> !ics | arulmagi
[12:07] <ikonia> arulmagi: connect it how ?
[12:07] <ikonia> arulmagi: to do what
[12:08] <raju> ubottu : I checked the website thoroughly but none of the options seemed to help me.
[12:09] <arulmagi> actually for my mobile has the internet connection, I want to use the internet in laptop by using wifi option
[12:09] <cfhowlett> raju, if the troubleshooting doesn't work, not much more to do than file a bug and wait for the cure.
[12:09] <ikonia> arulmagi: you want your phone to be a proxy for the laptop
[12:10] <ikonia> raju: what model wifi card is
[12:10] <ikonia> is it
[12:10] <raju> ikonia : Intel Centrino Wireless N 2230
[12:10] <arulmagi> I want to use my mobile hotspot to be connected to ubuntu
[12:10] <ikonia> arulmagi: ok, so the problem is your phone
[12:10] <ikonia> arulmagi: your phone needs to support a hotspot
[12:11] <ikonia> raju: if you open a terminal and type "sudo iwconfig" what do you get as a reponse (use pastebin.ubuntu.com please)
[12:11] <arulmagi> it does support a hotspot, mine is Motorola E2
[12:11] <ikonia> arulmagi: disussion over
[12:11] <ikonia> arulmagi: you want to use your phone as a hotspot....it doesn't support being a hotspot, done
[12:11] <ikonia> not an ubuntu problem
[12:12] <cfhowlett> sad + true
[12:12] <raju> ikonia : here you go http://pastebin.com/NNfwsfnh
[12:13] <ikonia> raju: ok, so the card is not being detected at all
[12:13] <arulmagi> I have used my mobile as a hotspot in Manjaro previously, you know the same mobile
[12:13] <ikonia> arulmagi: if it supports being a hotspot, ubuntu will detect it's wifi network and connect to it
[12:13] <ikonia> arulmagi: it's that simple
[12:13] <ikonia> raju: has this ever worked for you ?
[12:14] <arulmagi> if i clicked on the 'Enable Wifi' connection it shows as 'device not ready'
[12:14] <raju> ikonia : Yes. But when I was installing Xubuntu for the first time yesterday, during installation my Wireless Adapter was working fine . After reboot, it worked for a few minutes and then it went quite.
[12:14] <sebsebseb> hi
[12:15] <raju> ikonia : After that it has never been enabled.
[12:15] <ikonia> arulmagi: the ubuntu wifi device is not ready ? or the hotspot is not ready
[12:16] <ikonia> raju: is it possible you have disabled it with a kill switch
[12:16] <arulmagi> "wifi device not ready"
[12:16] <ikonia> arulmagi: you said that
[12:16] <raju> ikonia: I tried rebooting the system numerous times, reset BIOS settings and disabled power management but to no sucess.
[12:16] <ikonia> arulmagi: is that the ubuntu wifi device, or the hotspot device thats not ready
[12:16] <ikonia> raju: not quite what I asked, most laptops have a kill switch to enable/disable the wifi device as a device,
[12:16] <arulmagi> ubuntu wifi device
[12:16] <ikonia> arulmagi: can your ubuntu machine connect to wifi networks ?
[12:17] <ikonia> arulmagi: eg: can it connect to networks now
[12:17] <raju> ikonia: Maybe, I don't know. When I use the kill switch , bluetooth gets turned off and on properly but Wifi won't.
[12:17] <arulmagi> by USB tethering i have connected it now
[12:18] <ikonia> arulmagi: never mind, I'm asking you questions, your ignoring them and answering another different question that no-one asked
[12:18] <raju> ikonia: When I do grep -i networkmanager /var/log/syslog , the logs are here http://pastebin.com/tPzxa7BP.
[12:18] <ikonia> raju: ok, so you need to have a look in the syslog and look for references to the intel wifi device, see if it sees it, then see what it does when it trys to bring it up
[12:18] <ikonia> ahhh well done
[12:19] <raju> ikonia: Interestingly, it says WiFi hardware radio set disabled.
[12:20] <ikonia> raju: Jan  1 13:21:51 max NetworkManager[954]: <info>  [1483257111.0659] WiFi hardware radio set disabled
[12:20] <ikonia> yes,
[12:20] <raju> ikonia: So, what do I do ?
[12:21] <ikonia> raju: need to understand why it's being flagged as disabled
[12:21] <ikonia> there was another line...hang on
[12:21] <ikonia> Jan  1 13:21:45 max NetworkManager[954]: <info>  [1483257105.6647] urfkill disappeared from the bus
[12:21] <raju> ikonia: Ok. Sorry !
[12:21] <ikonia> raju: an interesting test would be to boot the live media and see if it works from live media
[12:22] <raju> ikonia: Yes, I tested it and it works fine there.
[12:22] <ikonia> raju: so something in your actual install is disabling the card
[12:23] <ikonia> (at a device level)
[12:24] <raju> ikonia: So, what are my options ? I reinstalled it for the second time today and yet the problem persists.
[12:26] <ikonia> raju: that certainly is an option, but it would be useful to understand what triggered this at least, and if possible why it remains disabled
[12:26] <ikonia> raju: depends how you wwant to approach it really
[12:26] <raju> ikonia : Please guide me.
[12:26] <Ichimusai> ikonia & raju: Did you try to rmmod / modprobe the driver to see if it comes back alive
[12:28] <ikonia> Ichimusai: not even looked if the module is loaded, I suspect it has been loaded at boot looking at the syslog output, but it's all worthwhile to check
[12:28] <raju> Ichimusai: Please guide me which commands do I need to type for rmmod / modprobe.
[12:28] <Ichimusai> ikonia: I think so too, but it could have a bug. Also the systemd people are not inplementing all hardware workaround hacks which means old bugs are coming back some times.
[12:29] <Ichimusai> raju: Can you find the driver name in your logs?
[12:30] <ikonia> systemd people and hardware hacks ? what
[12:31] <raju> Ichimusai: No, I can't. But the driver name is , I think, is iwlwifi.
[12:31] <Ichimusai> ikonia: With the introduction of systemd for startup it's handling more and more of the networking stuff also which has not been completely unproblematict.
[12:32] <Ichimusai> raju: Try modprobe -r iwlwifi
[12:32] <ikonia> Ichimusai:.....it's handled through network manager
[12:34] <raju> Ichimusai: Well , here you go rmmod: ERROR: missing module name. modprobe: FATAL: Error running remove command for iwlwifi
[12:34] <Ichimusai> raju: So the module is called something else I guess.
[12:35] <raju> Ichimusai: How do I list all of the modules, then ?
[12:35] <raju> ikonia: Even If I do list all of the modules, my WIFI adapter won't show uo since it is not being detected.
[12:35] <Ichimusai> raju: lshw -class network
[12:36] <Ichimusai> raju: Try sudo insmod iwlwifi
[12:36] <raju> Ichimusai: Here you go :- http://pastebin.com/yHFjKjSw
[12:37] <raju> Ichimusai: For the second one, insmod: ERROR: could not load module iwlwifi: No such file or directory
[12:37] <Ichimusai> You are right it only lists the ethernet device there.
[12:38] <Ichimusai> raju: I suggest booting the live system and then trying to find out which driver is loaded for the wifi. Then back to the installed system and see if you can activate the driver.
[12:38] <cfhowlett> +1
[12:38] <raju> Ichimusai: How do I find that ? through lshw -class network ??
[12:39] <BluesKaj> Happy New Year everyone
[12:39] <j41> Happy New Year BluesKaj!
[12:39] <BluesKaj> Hi j41
[12:39] <j41> Hi! :P
[12:40] <EriC^^> raju: try sudo apt-get remove --purge bcmwl-kernel-source
[12:40] <Ichimusai> lsmod should show the loaded modules
[12:40] <EriC^^> raju: then sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
[12:40] <raju> EriC^^: Package 'bcmwl-kernel-source' is not installed, so not removed
[12:41] <EriC^^> raju: ok try the above
[12:41] <cfhowlett> EriC^^, isn't b43 for broadcom?  he said he has intel ...
[12:41] <EriC^^> then sudo modprobe b43
[12:41] <raju> EriC^^: Yes, I have Intel.
[12:41] <EriC^^> cfhowlett: yeah i don't know, i'm following some thread that says Solved
[12:41] <Ichimusai> Yes, intel device.
[12:41] <EriC^^> oh
[12:41] <raju> EriC^^: sudo modprobe b43 returns nothing.
[12:41] <EriC^^> nevermind guys
[12:42] <EriC^^> raju: try rfkill list
[12:42] <cfhowlett> raju, after the above ... reboot to a usb.  identify the active module.  install that to your actual installation
[12:42] <raju> Ichimusai: Ok, bro. Please wait for 2 mins while I live boot the system and paste you the results. Shall I communicate with you with the live system ??
[12:43] <EriC^^> it doesn't show anything in lshw, maybe it's hardblocked?
[12:43] <raju> EriC^^: 2: hci0: Bluetooth 	Soft blocked: no 	Hard blocked: no
[12:44] <EriC^^> raju: ok thanks
[12:44] <Ichimusai> raju: I have to leave shortly I'm afraid but identify the difference in modules loaded, then try to install and insert the missing modules when running from the installed system. If it works in live but not installed I am fairly certain that there lies your problem.
[12:44] <tayzar> Hello! Any one
[12:44] <Ichimusai> raju: Sorry I have to dash.
[12:44] <raju> Ichimusai: What if the driver happens to be iwlwifi ??
[12:44] <raju> Ichimusai: How do I install that ??
[12:44] <Ichimusai> EriC^^: It works in live and not in installed system
[12:45] <Ichimusai> raju: http://askubuntu.com/questions/695191/how-to-install-wifi-driver-iwlwifi-4-2-0-16-generic
[12:47] <manjula_> how to run command or execute a program at a specific time in terminal ? e.g if i want to run the command "ls" in 5 mins time how do i do that ?
[12:47] <cfhowlett> manjula_,    cron the the commadn you need
[12:48] <ikonia> use sleep or cron
[12:48] <raju> Ichimusai : OK, my driver turns to be iwlwifi.
[12:48] <raju> ikonia: I am doing the steps mentioned in https://askubuntu.com/questions/695191/how-to-install-wifi-driver-iwlwifi-4-2-0-16-generic
[12:48] <cuddle> yo
[12:49] <ikonia> raju: why....
[12:49] <ikonia> raju: you shouldn't need to install anything
[12:49] <raju> ikonia: Ichimusai said me to do so.
[12:49] <ikonia> you should not be installing anything
[12:50] <ikonia> you know the module needed is on your system as the livecd proved it and when you first booted it worked
[12:50] <ikonia> so there should be no need to install anything
[12:50] <ikonia> installing random things is not a good idea
[12:50] <raju> ikonia: Then What do I do ?
[12:50] <ikonia> raju: I've not been following the conversation, so I don't know what you're currently doing
[12:50] <Fischmasterus> Hey, i have got a problem with my Notebook. I have got an AMD A10-8700P APU with integrated and external graphic cards. Now, with the discontinue of fglrx in Ubuntu 16.04 and other Debian based distros, i cant get my display to work without the option nomodeset on boot. Can anyone help me?
[12:50] <raju> ikonia: I agree but I am reallu desperate.
[12:51] <ikonia> raju: tell me where you are up to and what you know as fact at the moment
[12:51] <ikonia> (as I've not been following)
[12:51] <raju> ikonia: Ichimusai told me to boot the system through live usb , then identify the driver module in use and then install it.
[12:51] <ikonia> raju: so identifying it is a good idea
[12:51] <ikonia> raju: do you know what it is ?
[12:52] <raju> ikonia: Yes, iwlwifi
[12:52] <ikonia> raju: ok, so lets look at your kernel version quickly, what does unamr -r show
[12:53] <cfhowlett> ^^^ uname -r
[12:53] <ikonia> oops, good spot
[12:53] <cuddle> Steam does not launch in ubuntu. I’ve launched it before but I just need to have that .sh script to load the steam. Anyone familiar with launching steam ubuntu
[12:53] <raju> ikonia: 4.4.0-57-generic
[12:54] <cfhowlett> !steam | cuddle
[12:54] <ikonia> raju: ok, so what happens if you "sudo depmod iwlwifi"
[12:54] <cuddle> i have it installed
[12:54] <raju> ikonia: depmod: ERROR: Bad version passed iwlwifi
[12:54] <cuddle> just need launch code
[12:55] <ikonia> raju: ok, so there is a great start, a.) the module is on your system b.) we now know why the card is disabled it can't load it
[12:55] <cuddle> ./sh bash steam something???
[12:55] <cfhowlett> cuddle, start steam from command line to find the error. then go to #ubuntu-steam for support
[12:55] <raju> ikonia: Glad to hear that. What do we do now ?
[12:56] <ikonia> raju: need to understand why this is happening
[12:56] <ikonia> going to have to do a little bit of reading of the docs/code
[12:57] <Fischmasterus> Hey, i have got a problem with my Notebook. I have got an AMD A10-8700P APU with integrated and external graphic cards. Now, with the discontinue of fglrx in Ubuntu 16.04 and other Debian based distros, i cant get my display to work without the option nomodeset on boot. CAn someone help me please?
[12:57] <ikonia> raju: if you do "modinfo iwlwifi" if it gives any output, can you put it in a pastebin please
[12:57] <raju> ikonia: Thanks bro. Really appreciate that. I am waiting. Let me know when you are done. Shall I have a cup of tea now ??
[12:57] <abb4s> hey every body i have ubuntu 16 ,i want to use a library http://echoprint.me/codegen , should i make and install it and use .so file or there is another way to use it without installing ? i use Cmake as build systemm
[12:57] <ikonia> abb4s: you should never blindly do that
[12:58] <abb4s> ikonia: but i cant read all the makefile
[12:58] <ikonia> abb4s: you don't have to read the makefile

[12:59] <abb4s> ikonia: what i should do ?
[12:59] <abb4s> okay
[13:00] <abb4s> but ikonia there is not another way that i include the src file instead of build and install it and link compiler to .so file
[13:00] <raju> ikonia: http://pastebin.com/HbDuZb81
[13:00] <ikonia> abb4s: what ?
[13:01] <ikonia> raju: so that looks very good,
[13:01] <abb4s> ikonia: is there another way   that i include the library's  source files instead of build and install it and link compiler to the .so file
[13:01] <abb4s> ??
[13:01] <ikonia> abb4s: what you are saying makes no sense
[13:01] <pangjiahao> 中国人路过
[13:02] <pangjiahao> 。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
[13:02] <ikonia> pangjiahao: please don't do that
[13:02] <pangjiahao> ？？？
[13:03] <ikonia> raju: when this was working at the start, did you do an apt-get upgrade ?
[13:04] <abb4s> ikonia: sorry if i cant say it precisly , i want to use a library in c++ ,i has to build and install it and link g++ to the shared library (.so file) . but i have a question that can i use this library source without installing it ?
[13:04] <raju_> ikonia: The first time I booted Xubuntu, it was working. I did an apt upgrade and then rebooted. Voila ! The wifi refused to work.
[13:04] <ikonia> abb4s: how do you expect to use a library if you don't build it
[13:05] <ioria> version:        backported from Linux (next-20150903-0-ga672f92) using backports backports-20150903-0-g7b34ea2   i don't have this in my modinfo
[13:05] <ikonia> raju_: ok, so I'm reading a few lines at the moment that may suggest this is as simple as your update is using the wrong firmware
[13:05] <ikonia> ioria: yeah, I think he's got the backports repo enabled
[13:05] <ioria> yup
[13:05] <ikonia> which doesn't tie in with the firmware on the system
[13:05] <abb4s> ikonia: so i cant build it without installing ?
[13:05] <ikonia> raju_: do you know how to check what repos you have enabled ?
[13:05] <raju_> ikonia: Ichimusal told me to do so . I rebooted the system still to no avail.
[13:06] <ikonia> abb4s: what ??
[13:06] <ikonia> raju_: told you to do what exactly ?
[13:06] <raju_> Well, you know, install the backport as suggested in https://askubuntu.com/questions/695191/how-to-install-wifi-driver-iwlwifi-4-2-0-16-generic.
[13:06] <abb4s> ikonia: so i cant build the library  without installing ?
[13:06] <ikonia> abb4s: do you understand what you are saying
[13:07] <ikonia> abb4s: the library is built from source code....how do you install source code
[13:07] <ioria> raju_, i think you used snapd
[13:07] <ikonia> raju_: is this ubuntu 16.04 ?
[13:08] <raju_> ikonia: Yes, 16.04
[13:08] <ikonia> raju_: ok so those instructions are for 14.04
[13:08] <ikonia> raju_: is this a new install - there is nothing on it ?
[13:08] <ikonia> (nothing of value)
[13:08] <raju_> Yes, it is a new install.
[13:08] <ikonia> raju_: ok - lets re-install and walk this through
[13:08] <ikonia> as it looks like you've got some random junk on there now
[13:09] <raju_> ikonia: As you say.
[13:10] <raju_> ikonia: What happened ?
[13:10] <ikonia> raju_: what do you mean ?
[13:11] <raju_> ikonia : Do i need to re install the system ?
[13:11] <ikonia> raju_: lets do that yes, lets get a clean good install and move it forward until it breaks and then fix it clean
[13:11] <raju_> ikonia: Can't we just remove the backports ?
[13:11] <ikonia> raju_: and replace it with what ?
[13:11] <raju_> ikonia: Sorry
[13:12] <ikonia> raju_: no need for sorry
[13:12] <ikonia> raju_: I'd guess it will only take 20 minutes max to re-install if this is a clean install
[13:12] <raju_> ikonia: So what you are trying to say is I reinstall the system , continue to use the wifi and then wait until it breaks.
[13:13] <raju_> ikonia: Bro, can you give me some details on where I can contact you ?
[13:13] <ikonia> raju_: install new, test it, take a note of the modinfo iwlwifi output, run your apt-get update, see if it breaks as it did before, if it does, come back here
[13:13] <ikonia> raju_: I'll be here, I'm going nowhere,
[13:14] <raju_> Ok, Thanks.
[13:14] <raju_> ikonia: I just need a smoke and I will be right back. Thanks for your help.
[13:14] <ikonia> raju_: thats no problem, I shall make a bite to eat while you re-install
[13:20] <jnoob22> Getting this when I type sudo apt-get update ...

[13:36] <Fischmasterus> Hey, i have got a problem with my Notebook. I have got an AMD A10-8700P APU with integrated and external graphic cards. Now, with the discontinue of fglrx in Ubuntu 16.04 and other Debian based distros, i cant get my display to work without the option nomodeset on boot. CAn someone help me please?
[13:37] <Heheheh> fischmasterus: http://askubuntu.com/questions/38780/how-do-i-set-nomodeset-after-ive-already-installed-ubuntu
[13:38] <sebsebseb> Fischmasterus: hi
[13:38] <Fischmasterus> heHeHeh: I know how to do this. The Problem is that i have to do this. Softwarerendering draws the CPU
[13:38] <sebsebseb> Fischmasterus: I thinkn teh driver may be coming to 16.04 wsoon, catalyst
[13:38] <sebsebseb> Fischmasterus: I think may already be in 16.10 better support
[13:38] <sebsebseb> !amd
[13:39] <sebsebseb> Fischmasterus: there was a issue with 16.04 and the propriatyr amd driver or something
[13:39] <sebsebseb> since amd hadn't released a driver yet or something
[13:40] <Fischmasterus> sebsebseb: The problem happens on Ubuntu 16.04, 16.10, newest Linux Mint and Kali Linux.
[13:42] <sebsebseb> Fischmasterus: oh
[13:43] <Fischmasterus> sebsebseb: My external Graphic card is a R7 M360(GCN1.0) and internal is a AMD A10-8700P with Radeon R7 Graphics
[13:44] <sebsebseb> Fischmasterus: can't really help
[13:44] <Fischmasterus> Okay. My internal graphic is a R6 with GCN1.2
[13:44] <BluesKaj>  Fischmasterus what make is the external, numbers don't mean much without the brand
[13:44] <Fischmasterus> okay. Thank you
[13:45] <Fischmasterus> I have go an HP Pavilion 15 ab103ng
[13:47] <Fischmasterus> Well sorry, its a A10-8780P, with 	GPU Type: Radeon R8 series Microarchitecture: 3rd Gen GCN
[13:48] <sebsebseb> Fischmasterus: yeah not so sure about amd graphics
[13:48] <sebsebseb> Fischmasterus: also  this hcannel isn't so actve today but well new years
[13:48] <raju> ikonia: You there, bro ?
[13:49] <ioria> Fischmasterus,  from the specs i see   AMD Radeon R7 M360     can you paste   lspci | grep VGA
[13:49] <Fischmasterus> ioria: Running Windows currently, would need to reboot and note down
[13:50] <ioria> Fischmasterus,  nope, just go in Device Manager
[13:50] <Fischmasterus> okay
[13:50] <ioria> Fischmasterus,  from control panel, i guess
[13:50] <Fischmasterus> yeah im in,
[13:51] <Fischmasterus> It shows two devices, called AMD Radeon (TM) R7 M360 and AMD Radeon R7 Graphics
[13:51] <raju> ikonia: Bro, where are you ?
[13:52] <Fischmasterus> The problem on my device is, the graphic cards are connected. The second will be passed trough the main one. So you cant disable the internal. And The BIOS is a piy
[13:52] <ioria> Fischmasterus,  i think  R7 M360 it's not supported by the amd  AMDGPU-Pro Driver : http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMD-Radeon-GPU-PRO-Linux-Beta-Driver%E2%80%93Release-Notes.aspx
[13:53] <Fischmasterus> Yeah, well not yet maybe

[14:05] <jinnn> hi so is there a faster way to format a usbdrive than dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx?
[14:06] <k1l> jinnn: with format you mean just create a new partition/filesystem, clear the usbdrive or overwrite the old data, so its not readable anymore?
[14:06] <EriC^^> jinnn: depends on what you're trying to achieve
[14:06] <BluesKaj> jinnn, yes, dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx bs=4M
[14:07] <raju> someone please help me. I just did a clean install of xubuntu and my wifi driver is not detected.
[14:07] <Menzador> raju: Do you know what Wi-Fi hardware you have?
[14:08] <raju> Menzador: Yes, Intel centrino wireless n2230
[14:08] <adrian_1908> Does the `openssh-client` package suffice for talking to a server via ssh, or does one need the whole shebang anyway?
[14:09] <Menzador> raju: Try [ sudo modprobe -r iwlwifi ; sudo modprobe iwlwifi ]
[14:09] <Stinky-Feet> adrian_1908: It suffices
[14:09] <adrian_1908> Stinky-Feet: thanks!
[14:09] <raju> Menzador: Please help me. This is the 3rd clean install I have done today but to no avail.
[14:10] <raju> Menzador: modprobe: FATAL: error running remove command for iwlwifi
[14:10] <raju> Menzador: and sudo modprobe iwlwifi returns nothing.
[14:11] <Menzador> raju: What does [ lspci -v ] return? (please use a !pastebin)
[14:11] <Menzador> !pastebin | raju
[14:13] <raju> Menzador: Here you go :- https://paste.ubuntu.com/23722096/
[14:15] <Menzador> raju: And [ rfkill list all ]?
[14:17] <raju__> Menzador: What do you think, bro ?
[14:17] <Menzador> raju__: And [ rfkill list all ]?
[14:18] <raju__> here you go https://paste.ubuntu.com/23722107/
[14:18] <Menzador> raju__: Your wireless hardware, if you have any, is not being detected by Ubuntu.
[14:19] <Menzador> That may sound redundant, but have you booted from a Live image?
[14:19] <Menzador> Did the wireless work in the Live image?
[14:19] <raju__> Menzador: But I do have a wireless hardware. It was working fine until yesterday and then it suddenly went silent.
[14:20] <raju__> Menzador: Yes, wireless works fine in Live Image.
[14:20] <Menzador> raju__: Try [ sudo apt install --reinstall linux-firmware ]
[14:21] <Stinky-Feet> raju__: What did you change between working and failing? Software upgrades? New hardware?
[14:22] <w4w4n> :)
[14:23] <raju__> Menzador: Reinstallation of linux-firmware is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[14:23] <raju__> Stinky-Feet: I do check to see if there are any upgrades at least once a day.
[14:25] <raju__> Menzador: What do you suggest, brother ??
[14:27] <Menzador> raju__: I might try booting the Live image again and rolling out a chroot into your install and reinstalling linux-firmware.
[14:28] <raju__> Menzador: Please guide me.
[14:28] <Menzador> OK. Boot into your Live image.
[14:29] <raju__> Menzador: ok , one sec.
[14:29] <Menzador> raju__: Use these instructions (I have to leave soon) - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery
[14:31] <rajuu> Menzador: Ok, i have booted into the live image.
[14:31] <Menzador> rajuu - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery and then from there install the linux-firmware package inside the chroot.
[14:31] <Menzador> I'll see you in an hour.
[14:32] <rajuu> Menzador: Ok, bro. I shall be waiting.
[14:46] <ikonia> rajuu: how did you get on
[14:47] <rajuu> ikonia: God. Glad you are here.
[14:48] <rajuu> I did a clean install but my wifi won't be detected
[14:48] <ikonia> rajuu: so it didn't get detected from the clean install at all
[14:48] <ikonia> rajuu: only the livecd
[14:48] <rajuu> yes
[14:48] <ikonia> so it's different this time
[14:49] <rajuu> I guess so
[14:49] <ikonia> rajuu: can you remember the module name for your wireless card ?
[14:49] <rajuu> iwlwifi
[14:49] <ikonia> what happens if you "sudo depmod iwlwifi"
[14:50] <raju> ikonia: depmod: ERROR: Bad version passed iwlwifi
[14:51] <ikonia> raju: ok, so same thing, which based on the earlier looks like it's trying to load the wrong firmware
[14:51] <ikonia> raju: so if you "modinfo iwlwifi" and output that to a pastebin please
[14:52] <raju> ikonia: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23722223/
[14:52] <ikonia> raju: ok, so also show me "uname -r" please
[14:53] <raju> ikonia: 4.4.0-21-generic
[14:53] <ikonia> perfect, so you're in in sync
[14:53] <ikonia> off the top of your head do you remember if the liveboot is running 4.4.0-21 ?
[14:54] <raju> ikonia: Yes
[14:54] <tomreyn> ikonia: i think raju is running the livecd right now
[14:55] <ikonia> raju: are you on the livecd now ?
[14:55] <ikonia> tomreyn: thank you !
[14:55] <raju> ikonia: yes
[14:55] <ikonia> raju: ahhhh,
[14:55] <tomreyn> (based on my scroll back)
[14:55] <ikonia> raju: so thats why it looks good
[14:55] <ikonia> tomreyn: saviour, thank you
[14:55] <raju> ikonia: Ok, my bad/
[14:55] <raju> ikonia: I just did the clean install and didn't do any ugrades.
[14:56] <ikonia> raju: I need you to run those commands on the "broken" install, and show me the outpuf from the broken install (save them to a file if you have to them read that file from the livecd)
[14:56] <raju> ikonia: so it should be same, rght ?
[14:56] <ikonia> raju: it may differ, thats what we want to see
[14:57] <raju> ikonia: How do I do that ? I am currently on the live cd. Do I need to boot again into the broken install
[14:57] <ikonia> raju: thats right
[14:57] <raju> ikonia: ok, give me few moments.
[14:58] <tomreyn> welcome :)
[14:58] <ikonia> raju: does the broken install have a wired connection you can work from ?
[14:58] <raju> ikonia: yes, it does.
[14:58] <ikonia> raju: it may make sense to work from that rather than reboot
[14:58] <ikonia> (between broken and livecd)
[14:59] <raju> ikonia: The inetrnet is working fine under wired connection.
[14:59] <ikonia> raju: perfect
[14:59] <raju> ikonia: So now, what do we do ?
[14:59] <ikonia> raju: are you on the broken install now ?
[15:00] <raju> No , on the live cd
[15:00] <ikonia> raju: ok, boot into the broken install
[15:00] <raju> ikonia: ok
[15:02] <mnf> hello
[15:02] <mindbubble> sup
[15:02] <rajuu> ikonia: It is 8:30 and I need to have supper. Shall I contact you after eating ??
[15:02] <ikonia> rajuu: thats fine
[15:02] <ikonia> good to be focussed, so get fed
[15:03] <linuxpc> how to change the time settings on lxde to show time in 12 hr format?

[15:25] <lasersaber> lol wow
[15:28] <ytrezq> Hello, how to convert a RUNPATH section section into an RPATH one in the case of an already compiled elf binary??
[15:28] <BluesKaj> lasersaber, if users knew how to google their issues correctly, they wouldn't need to join this chat
[15:29] <ytrezq> LargePixels: unfortunately I googled it
[15:29] <BluesKaj> there's no "wow" about it
[15:29] <ytrezq> the only thing is I want to do it on ubuntu
[15:30] <ytrezq> chrpath only allows to perform the contrary
[15:32] <rajuu> ikonia: You there, bro ??
[15:32] <wsdjeg> I just create SpaceVim, maybe you will like it. https://github.com/SpaceVim/SpaceVim
[15:33] <ikonia> rajuu: yes
[15:33] <ikonia> wsdjeg: we don't want you spamming this
[15:33] <rajuu> ikonia: Could you please tell me the commands that I need to run ?
[15:34] <rajuu> ikonia: Could you please tell me the commands that I need to run ?
[15:34] <ikonia> rajuu: you're on the broken install yes ?
[15:34] <rajuu> ikonia: Yes
[15:35] <ikonia> rajuu: ok, so what's the kernel "uname -r"
[15:35] <wsdjeg> ikonia: no vim user in #ubuntu?
[15:35] <raju> 4.4.0-21-generic
[15:35] <ikonia> wsdjeg: many
[15:35] <ikonia> rajuu: ok, so the same as the livecd earlier then
[15:35] <raju> ikonia: Yeah.
[15:36] <wsdjeg> wo why it is spamming this
[15:36] <ikonia> rajuu: if you "depmod" the module on this broken install, what do you get
[15:36] <ikonia> wsdjeg: because we dont want spam in here
[15:36] <wsdjeg> just you dont?
[15:36] <raju> ikonia: sudo depmod iwlwifi
[15:36] <ikonia> wsdjeg: no, the channel doesn't
[15:36] <ikonia> raju: thats it
[15:37] <wsdjeg> maybe some vim user would like to have a try?
[15:37] <ikonia> wsdjeg: no
[15:37] <wsdjeg> ok , but sorry
[15:37] <raju> ikonia: depmod: ERROR: Bad version passed iwlwifi
[15:37] <ikonia> wsdjeg: please don't spam this stuff again
[15:37] <ikonia> raju: ok, so we are back on square one,
[15:37] <wsdjeg> yeah, sorry
[15:37] <ikonia> raju: so what I'd suggest doing is "modinfo iwlwifi > ~/modinfo.broken"
[15:38] <ikonia> raju: then boot into the livecd and do "modinfo iwlwifi > ~/modinfo.livecd"
[15:38] <BluesKaj> wsdjeg, assume you've asked in #vim chat ?
[15:38] <ikonia> raju: then compare the two modules output (especially around the firmware"
[15:38] <ikonia> BluesKaj: he's spammed it ino loads of channels. it's just not needed
[15:39] <BluesKaj> ikonia, ok , got it.
[15:39] <wsdjeg> I am sorry
[15:39] <raju> ikonia: Okay
[15:39] <ikonia> wsdjeg: no problem
[15:40] <wsdjeg> I should only asked it in #vim
[15:40] <ikonia> wsdjeg: no you shouldn't
[15:42] <Antares> С новым годом!
[15:42] <rajuu> ikonia: Both the output seems to be safe.
[15:42] <ikonia> rajuu: the same ?
[15:42] <rajuu> yes
[15:43] <ikonia> rajuu: so thats very odd
[15:43] <rajuu> and  now the problem is I just booted into the live cd and wifi us not detected
[15:43] <ikonia> rajuu: so now the livecd is broken
[15:44] <rajuu> ikonia: Yes.
[15:44] <rajuu> I guess I am doomed, then.
[15:45] <BluesKaj> !ru | Antares
[15:45] <ikonia> rajuu: not quite, but there is more going on than I thought here
[15:45] <ikonia> rajuu: reboot the livecd, confirm %100 it's broken
[15:45] <BluesKaj> usb dongle wifi perhaps?
[15:46] <rajuu> ok.
[15:46] <_wsdjeg> ikonia: I am banned in #archlinux, so can it be fixed?
[15:46] <ikonia> _wsdjeg: no idea, you got banned for spamming, talk to their ops
[15:47] <rajuu> ikonia: Yes, it's broken.
[15:47] <ikonia> rajuu: depmod the module on the livecd
[15:47] <rajuu> But the wifi was working fuine until yesterday.
[15:47] <_wsdjeg> I can not talk with him now.
[15:47] <rajuu> error bad version passed iwlwifi
[15:48] <hggdh> _wsdjeg: if you got banned from a channel, only the channel ops can resolve it
[15:48] <ikonia> rajuu: Hmmm, somethingi is very wrong here
[15:48] <ikonia> rajuu: the livecd should be black or white, working or broken, not sometimes different
[15:49] <rajuu> So, is that a hardware issue ??

[15:49] <_wsdjeg> hggdh: thanks, I will try to connect with his, but I really do not know how to do now ,sorry
[15:50] <rajuu> ikonia: So, is that a hardware issue ??
[15:52] <ikonia> rajuu: I don't think so, I'm just not clear in my head how it can behave this different
[15:53] <ikonia> rajuu: are you %101 sure you're booting into the livecd
[15:54] <rajuu> ikonia: Yes, Your Higness!
[15:55] <fermmy-media> RE immutable page (AutoLogin), filed a bug report to docs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-docs/+bug/1653436
[15:55] <fermmy-media> (oh nice, bot auto-logs)
[15:55] <ikonia> rajuu: this is very odd,
[15:56] <ikonia> rajuu: on the livecd is there anything in the syslog of interest around the wifi
[16:00] <skinux> Anyone know how to get log entries only specific to networking?
[16:00] <raju> ikonia: Ok. Leave it
[16:01] <raju> ikonia: Guess I need to take it to the service center.
[16:01] <ikonia> raju: I don't thnk you do to be honest
[16:01] <raju> But thanks for your help and time.
[16:01] <ikonia> you're welcome to the time
[16:01] <BluesKaj> the service center will tell you to use windows
[16:01] <raju> ikonia: Not everyone is generous as like you. I really appreciate that.
[16:02] <joci> hii! i got a little issue, i use chrome and firefox both of the are quite slow, how can i speed them up? what is the issue?
[16:02] <raju> ikonia: What do you mean by ' to be honest' ?
[16:03] <ikonia> raju: I mean I don't think you need to take it to a service center
[16:04] <raju> ikonia: Maybe. But what options do I have ?
[16:04] <ikonia> raju: need to work through the problem
[16:05] <raju> ikonia: I am not much that of a geek as you. I researched a lot on the internet and tried several things before coming in the IRC. But none helped.
[16:06] <MrSmith33> Is it possible for ubuntu 12.04 to install packages from 16.04?
[16:06] <ikonia> raju: I apprecaite that its not a straight forward situation to resolve, it's quite odd, especially now your livecd is failing
[16:06] <ikonia> raju: but a service center won't do anything for you
[16:06] <ikonia> MrSmith33: no
[16:07] <BluesKaj> raju, what is the wifi controller make and model?
[16:07] <raju> ikonia: So, my WiFi is doomed for good. Right ?
[16:07] <raju> BluesKaj: Intel Centrino Wireless N 2230
[16:08] <ikonia> raju: no
[16:08] <ikonia> raju: your attitude isn't helping
[16:08] <ikonia> raju: I've just said the problem has to be worked through and it's not a quick fix
[16:08] <ikonia> but all the time you keep saying it's broken for good ?
[16:09] <sebsebseb> hi
[16:10] <lasersaber> hy
[16:11] <raju_> ikanobori: What I doubt is that whether you have time or not
[16:11] <raju_> ikonia: What I doubt is that whether you have time or not
[16:11] <raju_> ikonia: If you do, lets start then.
[16:13] <raju_> ikonia: please reply , brother
[16:15] <BluesKaj> raju_, check this out : http://askubuntu.com/questions/818680/centrino-wireless-n-2230-not-working-after-upgrade-to-ubuntu-16-04, then this after blacklisting, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23153750/
[16:17] <linux_user21> Hey guys!
[16:17] <j41> Hello linux_user21
[16:18] <linux_user21> When I type in "ls -l" on the command line, I see see filenames along with their respective file sizes. What is the unit of those file sizes - it mb?
[16:18] <pavlos> linux_user21, bytes
[16:18] <linux_user21> megabytes?
[16:19] <j41> Just bytes
[16:19] <blami> linux_user21: nope bytes, use -lh to get more human friendly output
[16:19] <linux_user21> Sweet! Thanks!
[16:21] <linux_user21> Is there any way I can absolutely delete all files related to kismet (an app I downloaded a while back)?
[16:21] <blami> is there any way to force a specific package to automatically avoid any changes in /etc? dpkg-divert is not ideal solution for me ... as I am talking /etc/grub.d/
[16:22] <mpo42vr> Guys, is anyone here knowledgeable about setting up the Ubuntu-SDK? It appears that cmake is configured with the qmake path of the system but the Qt version seems to use a different path. How would I proceed from here?
[16:22] <BluesKaj> linux_user21,  sudo apt purge kismet
[16:23] <mpo42vr> I am inside the settings of the kits, btw
[16:23] <blami> linux_user21: assume it was installed standard way using ubuntu package you can do sudo apt-get purge kismet. This will remove software and configs but not files you've created using the kismet (logs)
[16:25] <linux_user21> How do I delete the logs?
[16:25] <tomreyn> linux_user21: yuo might also need to remove the "kismet-plugins" package (assuming you installed the "kismet" .deb (dpkg/apt) package)
[16:25] <BluesKaj> linux_user21,  sudo apt purge kismet* ..?  not sure
[16:26] <tomreyn> linux_user21: how did you install kismet?
[16:27] <linux_user21> tomreyn: I just read the instructions on a stackoverflow thread lol
[16:27] <blami> linux_user21: I think you have to delete them manually (i mean logged wireless trafic dumps - files you created, so you should know where they are)
[16:29] <tomreyn> linux_user21: if you cannot tell what steps you followed to install it exactly, it will be difficult to tell how to remove any remainders, other than by carrying out a full reinstallation (and even that might leave tracks behind, if you are trying to cover it from someone who is into IT forensics).
[16:32] <tomreyn> mpo42vr: this sounds like a question for #ubuntu-app-devel
[16:32] <mpo42vr> tomreyn: Thanks a lot!
[16:33] <tomreyn> welcome, hope i'm not wrong (i didn't even know there was an ubuntu sdk)
[16:33] <BluesKaj> !lucid
[16:34] <raju> BluesKaj: But his is hp and mine is dell.
[16:34] <BluesKaj> raju, the linux drivers are the same for that wifi controller
[16:35] <MrSmith33> ikonia: I've managed to get it to work. Is there a shorter variant?
[16:35] <MrSmith33> sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial main'
[16:35] <MrSmith33> sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial universe'
[16:35] <MrSmith33> sudo apt-get -qq update
[16:35] <MrSmith33> sudo apt-get install -y liblmdb-dev liblz4-dev libenet-dev
[16:35] <ikonia> MrSmith33: well done, you've broken your machine
[16:35] <tomreyn> !pastebin | MrSmith33
[16:35] <MrSmith33> It is for travis.ci
[16:36] <ikonia> MrSmith33: you've wrecked your machines dependencies
[16:36] <ikonia> MrSmith33: well done,
[16:36] <scott> scott
[16:36] <scott> hello?
[16:37] <MrSmith33> How can I get those packages from specific repositories then?
[16:37] <ikonia> MrSmith33: you don't
[16:37] <Guest99478> hey folks!
[16:37] <j41> Hello Guest99478
[16:37] <ikonia> MrSmith33: remember at the start when you asked how can I use 16.04 packages on 12.04 - and I said "you can't"
[16:37] <ikonia> MrSmith33: thats because you shouldn't do what you've just done
[16:37] <Guest99478> I'm in need of some assistance
[16:37] <j41> Guest99478: Please just ask your question when you join!
[16:38] <sebsebseb> hi
[16:38] <MrSmith33> ikonia: It doesn't matter because it will be one time job on CI server
[16:38] <ikonia> MrSmith33: it's too late, you've wrecked the dependencies for the whole machine
[16:38] <ikonia> MrSmith33: so it doens't matter if it's a "one time" thing
[16:38] <Guest99478> j41 I'm sorry I don't know what you mean first time here
[16:38] <MrSmith33> Machine is virtualized and reset each time
[16:39] <j41> !question | Guest99478
[16:39] <ikonia> MrSmith33: then why not just use a 16.04 image
[16:39] <ikonia> MrSmith33: rather than break a 12.04
[16:39] <raju_> Hey ikonia : BluesKaj suggested but I am confused what I should blacklist.
[16:39] <MrSmith33> because I dont control what travis.ci has on their servers
[16:39] <raju_> His is hp and mine is dell.
[16:39] <ikonia> raju_: blacklist what ?
[16:39] <Guest99478> thank you sorry for that
[16:39] <ikonia> MrSmith33: what they have doen't matter
[16:39] <j41> Guest99478: It's okay!
[16:40] <tomreyn> ikonia: it does to a degree. you have a limited time to run your commands on these systems, and they're just meant to be dumb build nodes.
[16:40] <BluesKaj> raju_,read the first post I gave , to the end
[16:41] <ikonia> tomreyn: not really as travis just launches the job,
[16:41] <Guest99478> I am trying to revitalize an old Emachine ubuntu keeps freezing on me. not sure if it's ubuntu or maybe the hard drives as they are old. They seem alright, but who knows.
[16:41] <tomreyn> ikonia: you wouldn't want to dist-upgrade them during a build
[16:41] <raju_> ikonia: He sugested this http://askubuntu.com/questions/818680/centrino-wireless-n-2230-not-working-after-upgrade-to-ubuntu-16-04
[16:41] <ikonia> raju_: let me have a read
[16:41] <j41> Guest99478: When does it freeze on you?
[16:41] <Guest99478> randomly
[16:41] <tomreyn> ikonia: oh you know it, so i'll mute, sorry.
[16:42] <j41> Guest99478: During install, when you're using it (e.g.: at the desktop), or some time else?
[16:42] <ikonia> raju_: so I see what he's saying, but I'm not sure it's the same as your situation
[16:42] <Guest99478> all of the above
[16:42] <ikonia> raju_: do an "lsmod" and put it into a pastebin please
[16:42] <Guest99478> in programs usually sometimes just in desktop
[16:42] <Guest99478> doesn't seem to be a real pattern
[16:43] <j41> Guest99478: What are the specifications of your machine?
[16:43] <raju_> ikonia: Here, you go. https://paste.ubuntu.com/23722670/
[16:44] <Guest99478> hang on it's kind of a frankestien prject let me check
[16:44] <LordNelthon> does anyone use oh-my-zsh and agnoster in gnome-terminal? If so, how do you solved the issue in line height?
[16:44] <ikonia> raju_: well well, look at that sparse_keymap          16384  1 dell_wmi
[16:45] <raju_> ikonia: Yes. I have no idea what that means.
[16:46] <Guest99478> 2.7 gigs of ram intel celeron cpu 420 @1.60GHZ Gallium 0.4 on nv63 64-bit
[16:46] <ikonia> raju_: so I'll be very surprised if this works, however
[16:46] <ikonia> raju_: blacklist dell_wmi and reboot
[16:48] <Guest99478> is that what you were looking for?
[16:48] <raju_> ikonia: like this https://paste.ubuntu.com/23722691/
[16:48] <ikonia> raju_: yup
[16:49] <ikonia> raju_: I'll be surprised, but try it
[16:49] <raju_> ikonia: Okay.
[16:49] <Guest99478> guess I lost you, but I think I might have answered it for myself I didn't think my specs were that low
[16:49] <Guest99478> thanks anyway
[16:51] <j41> Guest99478: Still need help?
[16:51] <Guest99478> I am trying to revitalize an old Emachine ubuntu keeps freezing on me. My specs are  2.7 gigs of ram intel celeron cpu 420 @1.60GHZ Gallium 0.4 on nv63 64-bit. Can anyone help?
[16:51] <j41> Guest99478: You might be better off with Xubuntu or Lubuntu
[16:51] <Guest99478> yes thank you
[16:51] <j41> Guest99478: They run better on older systems
[16:51] <Guest99478> thats what I'm thinking now
[16:52] <danes> hello, anyone can point me to a tutorial on how to connect to internet via wifi from the terminal? I installed ubuntu 16.04 with no GUI and I need to connect to a wifi network on boot. I am confused on how to configure wpa_supplicant
[16:52] <Guest99478> um is there a way I can just load it through this version instead of a complete reinstall?
[16:53] <raju> ikonia: No, that did not work.
[16:53] <lvjesus0> somebody?
[16:54] <lvjesus0> 有国人吗
[16:54] <j41> Guest99478: I think you'll have to reinstall. Try the live cd first. You can just install the desktop enviroment, but I don't think it will have the same affect, as x/lubuntu use different applications
[16:54] <j41> !cn | lvjesus0
[16:54] <raju> ikonia: That did not work.
[16:55] <sebsebseb> hi

[16:57] <danes> j41 I'll try it. How can I connect automatically on boot to the same network if I restart?

[16:58] <szymon_g> hi
[16:58] <danes> j41. Thank you I appreciate it. You saved me from frustration. I already spent > 1hr trying different things with no success...
[16:59] <j41> danes: No problem. If it helps, I found those links with a Google search :P
[17:00] <danes> j41 I tried googling too but I guess the key words I was using were not effective...
[17:00] <j41> danes: You need to master the art of google-fu!

[17:02] <simon_g> hi

[17:09] <Snowboarder> Who gives a shit, i am here ;)
[17:10] <j41> woah
[17:10] <simon_g> hm... why does the kernel-package has 820 mb dependancies, mostly tex-related stuff o.O?
[17:10] <shantorn> what is the package that i need to install to have primus for my laptop?
[17:11] <raju> Snowboarder: Can you help me ?
[17:12] <tomreyn> !info primus | shantorn
[17:12] <Snowboarder> What do ya need ;)?
[17:12] <Snowboarder> Raju
[17:13] <raju> Snowboarder: My Wifi Adapter is not being detected.
[17:13] <Snowboarder> Ubuntu?
[17:14] <Snowboarder> Which version?
[17:14] <raju> Snowboarder: Xubuntu 16.04
[17:15] <Snowboarder> Internal, ment integrated on mother board or something else?
[17:15] <yva> I tried to install ubuntu with encrypted swap using http://linuxbsdos.com/2014/05/28/how-to-install-ubuntu-14-04-on-encrypted-mbr-partitions/ but the swap isn't recognized. Any ways I can set it up somewhere?
[17:15] <raju> Snowboarder: Yes, it is internal. Intel Centrino Wireless N2230
[17:19] <Shepard> hi
[17:19] <sebsebseb> Shepard: hi
[17:19] <Shepard> so I was trying to upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 and it's telling me it wants to remove all sorts of programs that I use, instead of just old packages
[17:20] <Snowboarder> Raju: had same issues with sound card, then swap the system and everything works. Depends on time when hardware was issued, so older issuo of system sometimes work better then newer
[17:20] <raju> Snowboarder: What do you suggest ?
[17:20] <simon_g> ok, i've added ppa for vim8, it turned out the python support wasn't compiled in, so i've removed and broke system a bit. here is an error massage http://wklej.org/id/3003503/
[17:20] <hitman1> Hi
[17:20] <Shepard> a lot of the programs (and libraries) seem to be media-related. there's players like banshee, quodlibet, sayonara or vlc. but also programs like adobe reader, empathy, opera, pidgin, sound juicer, xchat.
[17:21] <Snowboarder> Can not check it right now, since i am on mobile
[17:21] <hitman1> I am getting blavk screen after ubuntu purple load menu in ubuntu 16.04
[17:21] <Shepard> and there's many more things it has marked as no longer used or no longer supported that I'm using, like gimp.
[17:21] <Shepard> and this can't be right. so I deactivated all other package sources and tried again, but it was the same problem.
[17:21] <j41> Shepard: How are you updating?
[17:21] <Shepard> does anyone have an idea what's going on or what I could try?
[17:22] <simon_g> sorted, i've used aptitude
[17:22] <Shepard> j41: just the regular update UI in ubuntu
[17:22] <hitman1> What to do ?
[17:22] <simon_g> Shepard, why not clean install? it's lts, you wont do another one anytime soon
[17:23] <Snowboarder> Raju: currently using Mint, and its cool,  i mean ubuntu and mint are both based on debian
[17:24] <raju> Snowboarder: Please send me suggestions at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[17:24] <Shepard> simon_g: that seems like a lot of work. I'd have reconfigure a lot of things that I've set up over the years. I try to avoid that unless something's really horribly broken :)
[17:25] <blami> simon_g: well I understand him; I also have lot of settings, installed programs, etc. one of reasons why I use ubuntu is I can (while I shouldn't) roll next versions without losing my stuff as I'd do in e.g. Windows
[17:25] <raju> Snowboarder: Ok, I shall try this too.
[17:26] <hitman1> Please give me some suggestion ?
[17:26] <ducasse> Shepard: exactly how you trying to upgrade?
[17:26] <Shepard> anyway, it seems like maybe some library (maybe something media-related?) is no longer supported in 16.04 and a lot of programs depend on it so it's trying to remove them?
[17:26] <ducasse> !nomodeset | hitman1
[17:26] <Shepard> ducasse: as I said, just the regular ubuntu update UI
[17:27] <Shepard> not sure what it's called in the english version
[17:27] <hitman1> Ubottu thanks
[17:27] <ducasse> Shepard: odd. are you using any ppas?
[17:28] <Shepard> ducasse: I deactivated them all and tried again but it didn't make any difference
[17:28] <j41> Shepard: You could try updating with the command   sudo do-release-upgrade
[17:28] <ducasse> Shepard: try purging them with ppa-purge
[17:29] <Shepard> j41: will that ask me before actually executing the upgrade?
[17:29] <ducasse> Shepard: the update manager gui basically just runs do-release-upgrade
[17:29] <Shepard> ducasse: what exactly will that do?
[17:29] <Shepard> (the purge I mean)
[17:29] <BluesKaj> what about deleting them from /etc/apt/sources.list.d?
[17:30] <ducasse> Shepard: remove anything installed from a ppa, so you have the default ubuntu libraries and programs
[17:31] <ducasse> BluesKaj: he's tried deactivating them, i suspect some library has been upgraded from a ppa and now blocks the upgrade
[17:33] <Shepard> ducasse: so would removing those things installed from ppas also remove any settings related to that? I'm just wondering if I can easily go back from that
[17:34] <ducasse> Shepard: no, they are stored under /home most of the time.
[17:35] <ducasse> Shepard: besides, since you are going to backup before upgrading anyway, you can go back no matter what - right?
[17:36] <Shepard> right... :D
[17:38] <ducasse> Shepard: purging ppas before upgrading is the recommended way to do it (as is a backup, of course).
[17:38] <vicky> Hey everyone
[17:38] <Shepard> ok, I'll try out some things. thanks!
[17:38] <sebsebseb> hi vicky
[17:39] <vicky> WHats going on
[17:39] <sebsebseb> not much you ?
[17:39] <vicky> same here
[17:39] <sebsebseb> vicky: you use Ubuntu ?
[17:40] <Pozzo> Hello
[17:40] <sebsebseb> hi Pozzo
[17:40] <vicky> Well I'm new to college, my second sem is going to start tomorrow.
[17:40] <Pozzo> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/1292041/comments/39
[17:40] <sebsebseb> vicky: oh right ok,  college in USA I guess?  and maybe you got Ubuntu on your lap top for that  then : d ?
[17:41] <Pozzo> Anybody with an idea of a workaround for this bug ?
[17:41] <vicky> I'm in India
[17:41] <sebsebseb> vicky: maybe you got a Ubuntu support issue even, this is the support channel
[17:41] <ducasse> Pozzo: it says 'fix released'
[17:41] <Pozzo> it says but it is not...
[17:41] <vicky> yeah theres a problem
[17:42] <vicky> I'm not able to install Virtual Box to my system
[17:42] <Pozzo> I still have this issue : the gnome-screensaver switch off the screen...
[17:42] <sebsebseb> vicky:  uhmmm  sudo apt-get install virtualbox ?
[17:42] <sebsebseb> vicky: or from software centre?
[17:42] <vicky> from software center
[17:42] <Pozzo> and just 1 second later the screen turn on again but it just displays a black screen with a white cursor
[17:43] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: gnome screensaver isn't that good anyway
[17:43] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: it used to be, but not anymore, you could replace it for xscreensaver which now is better
[17:43] <vicky> The dialog box appears with Install button. But nothing happens on pressing it
[17:43] <Pozzo> sebsebseb: yes but I'm under ubuntu-gnome ...
[17:43] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: well you still can
[17:44] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: you would even get real screen savers with xscreensaver :)
[17:44] <Pozzo> yes I know... I have used xscreensaver for years :)
[17:44] <sebsebseb> vicky: could be a problem with it connecting or trying to connect to the repeos
[17:44] <Pozzo> with the Xmatrix theme :)
[17:44] <sebsebseb> !repos
[17:44] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: also that doesn't really fix your issue, but as a work around, switch to xscreensaver :d ?
[17:44] <Pozzo> I will give a try with xscreensaver
[17:45] <sebsebseb> ok
[17:45] <vicky> What do you do sebsebseb?
[17:45] <sebsebseb> be a computer geek somteimes, yep been doing  a lot of that today :d
[17:45] <Pozzo> it will be better that pushing of the power-switch of my screen everytime I left my office
[17:46] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: indeed if that works
[17:46] <Pozzo> this bug is clearly relative to gnome-screensaver and proprietary nvidia driver
[17:46] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: altough the  gnome one should work enough really, but eh all it does now, is locks screen, and makes it go black I guess
[17:46] <Pozzo> with other PC with intel graphic driver I have no issue
[17:46] <sebsebseb> is there a bug link ?
[17:46] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: if there is an actsaul bug in the package,  then you won't just get a fix anyway
[17:47] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: not in that relased version of ubuntu anyway, a possible future one yes
[17:47] <Pozzo> yes the gnome-screensaver is now very "simple"... just turn off the screen
[17:47] <Pozzo> it's enough for me... but really "simple" indeed
[17:47] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: indeed, and xscreensaver will work in gnome to anyway :)
[17:47] <sebsebseb> also I think gnome screensaver long ago got forked from xscreensaver even
[17:47] <Pozzo> I will try that right now
[17:48] <Pozzo> give me a minute :)
[17:48] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: make sure to disalbe or remoe gnoe screensaer when doing x screenaver
[17:48] <sebsebseb> Pozzo: when it asks which to use put xscreensaver
[17:49] <Pozzo> Yes I know the trick :)
[17:51] <Aevan> ciao
[17:51] <Aevan> !list
[17:53] <adam187a> Hello, new Ubuntu user here
[17:53] <sebsebseb> adam187a: ok nice :)
[17:58] <casa> hello everyone
[17:59] <casa> i m having trouble with firefox
[17:59] <mynameisJulian> casa: What's the issue?
[18:00] <casa> i already restore and take it off and reinstall everything and is the same
[18:00] <k1l> casa: what is the exact issue then?
[18:00] <mynameisJulian> Does it not start? Or does it give an error?
[18:00] <casa> Mozilla firefox is not respinding  the that message im getting
[18:01] <k1l> casa: did you try with a clean profile?
[18:02] <casa> where can i select clean profile?
[18:04] <Menzador> raju_: Any luck?
[18:05] <casa> i am able to open as administration
[18:05] <k1l_> casa: dont do that
[18:05] <k1l_> casa: this could be the reason why firefox is acting that way.
[18:06] <k1l_> and running a browser as root is the security hell anyway
[18:06] <17WAAWKRA> hey
[18:07] <casa> then what should i do?
[18:08] <k1l_> casa: open a terminal and run: "ls -al |grep root ". what folders and files does it list?
[18:09] <cuddylier> Anyone know how to get php-fpm 5.6 for Ubuntu 14.04?
[18:09] <cuddylier> I can find php5.6 fine but not the fpm version.
[18:09] <binaryplease> Hi, I want to install Lubuntu on a Laptop that does not support uefi. I downloaded the desktop 64bit installer, but it complains that I have chosen to use UEFI and it is not supported. I didn't choose anything. How do I select BIOS boot mode? Do I need a different install medium like alternate cd?
[18:09] <k1l_> !info php-fpm trusty
[18:09] <Menzador> !info php-fpm trusty
[18:09] <Menzador> ((Lol, great minds think alike.))
[18:09] <k1l_> !info php5-fpm trusty
[18:10] <casa> copy and paste?
[18:10] <cuddylier> It's php 5.5.9
[18:10] <cuddylier> I need 5.6
[18:10] <k1l_> casa: use paste.ubuntu.com for pastes
[18:10] <Menzador> cuddylier: That's what we have in 14.04 LTS. You can try 16.04 LTS if you need a later version
[18:11] <saulo_> hi. Somebody can help me to toggle the band my wireless card is using? I have an ath10k_pci
[18:11] <cuddylier> Menzador: Is there no way to get an updated version in 14.04 without upgrading to 16.04?
[18:11] <k1l_> cuddylier: then you might need a PPA or another source for that
[18:11] <cuddylier> k1l_: Yeah I will but I can't find one.
[18:11] <cuddylier> There is one for normal php but not php-fpm that I can find.
[18:12] <k1l_> cuddylier: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=php5-fpm
[18:12] <k1l_> cuddylier: but its your own risk
[18:13] <cuddylier> k1l: Only one I see there I see for fpm seems to not specify what php version 5 it is.
[18:13] <k1l_> cuddylier: php is the source package where all the subpackages (like php-fpm) is build from.
[18:15] <cuddylier> k1l: So maybe this? https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/ubuntu/php
[18:15] <k1l_> click on the ppa, then on packge details. then on the package for your ubuntu release
[18:17] <casa> i am getting a message is "Firefox had a problem and Crashed"
[18:18] <k1l_> casa: rename the .mozilla folder in your home and restart firefox
[18:19] <casa> version 50.1.0
[18:21] <binaryplease> anyone?
[18:22] <k1l_> binaryplease: the ubuntu isos should work with or without uefi.
[18:22] <stan_man_can> Is there any way to make that super button search menu less shitty? it's super slow and doesn't do math regularly
[18:23] <stan_man_can> i want to be able to do like super then "197*2.75" and have it tell me the answer right away
[18:23] <binaryplease> k1l_: i installed it but only get a black screen when trying to boot from the harddrive
[18:23] <CluDz> hello, im new at ubuntu and im having problems with the boot after install, can anybody help me?
[18:23] <k1l_> binaryplease: so the install worked?
[18:23] <sintre> binary> what type of firmware doesn your computer use and what type of partition table is the hdd
[18:23] <k1l_> binaryplease: so that does sound like a video driver issue. not uefi issue. you can try to use nomodeset for testing and for installing the correct video driver
[18:24] <sintre> if its ms/dos you need to install in legacy , if its gpt uefi efi
[18:25] <binaryplease> k1l_: I cant even get to grub or anything where I could try nomodeset
[18:25] <k1l_> stan_man_can: works here
[18:25] <binaryplease> just the boot menu pressing f12
[18:25] <sintre> can you use a live cd and check the hdd
[18:25] <sintre> type fdisk -l
[18:25] <binaryplease> its a lenovo b570, im trying to install to a msata drive I installed. The other drive has windows 7 on it
[18:25] <sintre> and look for the parition table
[18:26] <sintre> then thats qwhy
[18:26] <sintre> you need to use gpt and change the partition table
[18:26] <sintre> i mean gparted and change it to gpt table
[18:26] <binaryplease> sintre: on the ssd or on the harddisk?
[18:26] <sintre> the target disk you want to install
[18:26] <cfoch> hi
[18:26] <sintre> if you want it installed in uefi
[18:27] <k1l_> binaryplease: that laptop got uefi
[18:27] <cfoch> I try to build gstreamer and I get this error "required file `./ltmain.sh' not found". Is this because I have an old libtool version?
[18:27] <sintre> or you can change it in bios , to a "clone legacy mode
[18:27] <sintre> then install wittout it
[18:27] <binaryplease> sintre: that option is not present in this bios, I used that on other laptops
[18:28] <sintre> so when it says bios mode it says legacy or efi?
[18:28] <sintre> you can't change partition table from bios you need to use a program
[18:29] <binaryplease> sintre: ok, i will try to reinstall it correctly then. When I'm asked for the target drive I will select the ssd. (entire drive). Do I need to change the table afterwards or will it do it automatically?
[18:30] <sintre> So you want to install to ssd?
[18:30] <sintre> if it had win 7 yes you need to change partition table to be sfe
[18:30] <binaryplease> sintre: Yes. windows is only on the harddisk
[18:30] <binaryplease> the ssd is new and only for linux
[18:30] <sintre> use gparted
[18:31] <sintre> from live enviroment
[18:31] <binaryplease> sintre: ok, thanks I will try that.
[18:31] <sintre> then , let it auto magic or create the partitions you want manually
[18:32] <sintre> but it won't install in efi mode on a legacy/dos table
[18:32] <linux_2121> How do  I recursively delte all files starting with the letter "K"?
[18:32] <linux_2121> delete*
[18:32] <lasersaber> how can i add a show desktop button on my panel?
[18:33] <binaryplease> linux_2121: https://askubuntu.com/questions/377438/how-can-i-recursively-delete-all-files-of-a-specific-extension-in-the-current-di
[18:33] <wuii> hey guys, is it possible to run the alternate installer from the desktop iso, either in the live environment or rebooting with certain parameters?
[18:35] <Pozzo> well... it's quite fun
[18:36] <tomreyn> wuii: no (not with much complexity), you'll need to download and write it to a bootable media of its own.
[18:36] <akik> wuii: you can probably start it with kvm
[18:36] <Pozzo> if I add xscreensaver... without removing/desabling gnome-screensaver : it works properly !
[18:36] <akik> wuii: maybe i didn't catch your meaning
[18:36] <linux_2121> holy shit
[18:36] <Pozzo> gnome-screensaver turn off the screen... and no more "screen turns on with white cursor 1 second later"
[18:37] <linux_2121> I typed in rm * and everything got deleted!
[18:37] <Pozzo> rm : remove
[18:37] <tomreyn> wuii: whats your use case / why do you ask this?
[18:37] <szymon_g> i've tried to compile newer kernel for 16.04, i've downloaded source and patches, i've applied them (no errors), when i've tried to compile it in the debian way that's what i got: http://wklej.org/id/3003568/
[18:37] <Pozzo> * : wildcard for "all"
[18:37] <Pozzo> so : you remove all the files
[18:37] <mynameisJulian> *facepalms*
[18:38] <linux_2121> Pozzo:  I wanted to remove all files starting with the letter "k". So I type in rm k* -- and yet everything got deleted
[18:38] <Pozzo> linux_2121: weird
[18:38] <wuii> tomreyn: probably not directly supported here, but the installer in the live ppc64 environment doesn't seem to progress after a certain point (16.04), and I was curious because historically I've had good luck with the alternative installer
[18:38] <Pozzo> maybe you would have tried : rm "k*"
[18:38] <wuii> slow internet makes it hellish to get the other image though :P
[18:39] <vicky> Ya
[18:39] <Pozzo> argh.. in the fact the "screen turn on with white cursor" reappears...
[18:39] <Pozzo> but a little bit later
[18:39] <Pozzo> I will try to remove gnome-screensaver totally
[18:40] <linux_2121> Pozzo My folders are still present though; all of my files (which weren't present in the folders) got deleted
[18:40] <mynameisJulian> rm doesn't delete folders directly
[18:40] <linux_2121> Thanks mynameisJulian!
[18:40] <Pozzo> linux_2121: of course... rm does not remove folder by default
[18:41] <Pozzo> except if you use the "recursive" mode : rm -r *
[18:41] <szymon_g> rm -dr
[18:41] <szymon_g> what about "d" option?
[18:41] <tomreyn> wuii: ppc64, is this an architecture?
[18:41] <pavlos> linux_2121, rm can be called with 'rm -i' for interactive so you know which file will be deleted
[18:41] <Pozzo> you'd better give a try : man rm
[18:42] <linux_2121> how do I see my tree -- the things which shows how all of my files are directories are linked to each other?
[18:43] <k1l_> linux_2121: install and use "tree"
[18:43] <wuii> tomreyn: 64bit powerpc (specifically a G5 in my case)
[18:43] <k1l_> linux_2121: or use "ls -al" if you only want to see the current directory
[18:44] <linux_2121> Thanks k1l_!
[18:44] <linux_2121> What exactly is a virtual box used for?
[18:44] <k1l_> "tree -d" for directories only
[18:44] <k1l_> linux_2121: virtualisation.
[18:44] <linux_2121> can I experiment with linux commands using said virtual box?
[18:44] <Pozzo> linux_2121: why don't use a graphical file explorer ? unity/gnome with nautilus should be easier if you dont know well how to deal with the command line
[18:45] <Pozzo> linux_2121: yes of course: you can install a virtual box with "ubuntu server" by exemple
[18:45] <k1l_> linux_2121: yes, you can install another OS into virtualbox and test there.
[18:45] <Pozzo> and experiment the command line
[18:45] <linux_2121> Pozzo Ah, thanks I'll check that out! But I really want to learn how to use the command line, I just installed Ubuntu yesterday haha
[18:46] <k1l_> linux_2121: there are tons of "bash guides" online which explain a lot of things
[18:46] <Pozzo> and you have installed ubuntu with which "flavor" ? ubuntu ? the desktop version ? the server version ?
[18:46] <egelor> linux_2121: cygwin is a better choice than VB
[18:46] <linux_2121> the desktop version Pozzo
[18:46] <Pozzo> if you have more experience on Windows : you can try cygwin
[18:46] <salamanderrake> is there a way to reset what file exts. are associated with what application. Tried to open a .txt file and some wine app tried to open it.
[18:46] <linux_2121> Pozzo nooo I like Linux!
[18:46] <Pozzo> you will have a bash under windows with cygwin to experiment too
[18:47] <lasersaber> www.virtualbox.org
[18:47] <Herbalist> salamander .. try right-click the file
[18:47] <k1l_> i dont know why you suggest cygwin if he already uses ubuntu
[18:47] <tomreyn> wuii: okay, according to http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/xenial/ there exists (or existed?) a port for the ppc64el architecture.
[18:47] <Herbalist> then "open With.."
[18:47] <linux_2121> I'm just curious, isn't a ubuntu a flavor in itself?
[18:48] <Pozzo> k1l_: just to avoid seing him killing is ubuntu install when he will try : sudo rm -fr /
[18:48] <linux_2121> cancel the "a" before ubutnu
[18:48] <pavlos> linux_2121, cd /tmp; mkdir testing; cd testing; touch K{1..4}; touch bob; ls; rm K*  ... files gone except for file bob
[18:48] <tomreyn> wuii: theres an installer here: http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/xenial/main/installer-ppc64el/current/images/netboot/
[18:48] <mynameisJulian> sudo apt-get install virtualbox
[18:48] <mynameisJulian> Much easier
[18:48] <k1l_> linux_2121: ubuntu is the standard flavor of ubuntu. its shipped with unity desktop. there are other flavors with different setups based on ubuntu
[18:48] <linux_2121> lol Pozzo what will that do? Delete everything?
[18:48] <Pozzo> linux_2121: yes it will remove everything
[18:48] <lasersaber> "shipped"
[18:49] <egelor> i use gnome-flashback metacity
[18:49] <egelor> light things
[18:49] <tomreyn> wuii: but note this was last updated in april 2016, it's maybe not the latest but the 16.04 (xenial) base release, so 16.04.0
[18:49] <egelor> or mate
[18:49] <lasersaber> unity unity is pretty sweet
[18:49] <Pozzo> sebsebseb: well... i remove xscreensaver
[18:49] <Pozzo> the lockscreen is so ugly :)
[18:49] <lasersaber> ubuntu unity*
[18:49] <Herbalist> lasersaber ... which kind of ship is used to transport Ubuntu ?
[18:50] <tomreyn> wuii: isnt this hardware very old now?
[18:50] <lasersaber> idk
[18:50] <Herbalist> battleship
[18:50] <lasersaber> the kind that floats
[18:50] <lasersaber> ?
[18:50] <Herbalist> for certain
[18:50] <jinxi1> can I play star craft 2 on Linux?
[18:50] <wuii> tomreyn: just for reference the ppc64el is little endian for power8 architecture, while G5 (powerpc 970) is big endian only. I'll admit it's a pretty niche these days as well
[18:50] <k1l_> !virtualbox | linux_2121 that is fine to setup a testing environment
[18:51] <k1l_> jinxi1: do they offer a nativ linux client?
[18:51] <egelor> jinxi1: playonlinux
[18:51] <wuii> tomreyn: as irritating as it is I'll just wait for the download, thanks for your help in any case :P
[18:51] <k1l_> jinxi1: if they dont you will need to use wine, or somethings thats based on wine like playonlinux
[18:51] <Pozzo> wuii: the download of what ? ubuntu.iso ?
[18:51] <egelor> jinxi1: i play Diablo III with playonlinux and some hacks
[18:52] <lasersaber> jinxi1, if you have the money get crossover linux
[18:52] <ikonia> playonlinux is a joke
[18:52] <ikonia> it's just a wrapper for wine
[18:52] <Pozzo> crossover linux is just wine/playonlinux rebranded and "optimized"... with profiles for some games already prepared
[18:52] <Pozzo> it's easier but not necessary
[18:52] <ikonia> want to play a windows game, boot windows
[18:53] <egelor> ikonia: i make money with playonlinux wine was not permitied at Diablo
[18:53] <lasersaber> jinxi1, https://www.codeweavers.com if you have the money is a good software
[18:53] <ikonia> egelor: you make money ?
[18:53] <Pozzo> or give a try to Steam on Linux :)
[18:53] <tomreyn> wuii: so if ppc64el won't work, look for a working port at http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/xenial-updates/main/ then click on it and traverse into the current/images/netboot/ subdirectory where you will find the latest mini.iso.
[18:53] <ikonia> steam on linux is a joke
[18:53] <Pozzo> tsss
[18:53] <ikonia> very few native games and the others just wine wrappers
[18:53] <egelor> ikonia: yes from diablo market
[18:53] <tomreyn> wuii: i'm not convinced that any of  the official installers will work for you.
[18:53] <mynameisJulian> I don't know if Steam for Windows will run inside of Wine, probably not, never tried.
[18:53] <linux_2121> is there a way I can check my system's efficiency in terms of how well it is handling currently running applications?
[18:54] <lasersaber> yeah steam on linux is usesless when most games wont play on linux that uses steam
[18:54] <salamanderrake> ikonia: close to 2000 naive games is a joke?
[18:54] <k1l_> linux_2121: top or htop in terminal
[18:54] <ikonia> salamanderrake: yes, very few major titles that are native
[18:54] <wuii> tomreyn: oh, what's different with the mini.iso to the alternative/desktop versions? I'm going to assume is grabs the required packages from the internet, but to what degree?
[18:54] <salamanderrake> https://steamdb.info/linux/
[18:55] <Pozzo> a little question : why there is activities here... and no one on #ubuntu-gnome ?
[18:55] <tomreyn> wuii: correct, it's a netinstall image.
[18:55] <ikonia> salamanderrake: quality stuff like "bobs game" and "no pineapple left behind"
[18:55] <tomreyn> !mini | wuii
[18:55] <ikonia> salamanderrake: they are not native either
[18:55] <ikonia> they are just confirmed as "working"
[18:56] <lasersaber> i still use my winblows 10 for gaming though :-/
[18:56] <salamanderrake> who said they are not native?
[18:56] <ikonia> salamanderrake: read the description
[18:56] <salamanderrake> http://www.feralinteractive.com/en/linux-games/
[18:57] <ikonia> salamanderrake: again, not native
[18:57] <tomreyn> wuii: since ubuntu only officially supports i686 and amd64 architectures, you will depend on a port, and a ported installer. i'm noit sure whether, besides the mini.iso, there are other installers available for ports.
[18:57] <salamanderrake> http://aspyr.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search_term=&platform%5B%5D=Linux&view_option=Grid_View
[18:57] <ikonia> salamanderrake: I'm not sure who you are trying to convince here
[18:57] <salamanderrake> ikonia: do you know what native means?
[18:57] <ikonia> salamanderrake: yes
[18:58] <salamanderrake> all of feral and aspyr games are native.
[18:58] <ikonia> the feral ones are not
[18:58] <ikonia> F1 2015 is not native
[18:58] <cludz> hello, can i have ubuntu install help here?
[18:58] <ikonia> looking at the ohters I don't believe the others all are (I don't know all of them)
[18:59] <salamanderrake> yes it is
[18:59] <ikonia> it's not, and they are mostly all old out of date stuff
[18:59] <wuii> tomreyn: cool, this is looking like a promising lead so far, I've started grabbing the mini instead, I'll let you know how it goes
[18:59] <salamanderrake> you don't know what your talking about.
[18:59]  * Pozzo
[18:59] <mynameisJulian> cludz: Of course! How can we help
[18:59] <Pozzo> cludz: what do you want to know ?
[19:00] <salamanderrake> total war: warhammer is 2016
[19:00] <cludz> so i was installing, and i made a partition for swap, another for / and installed, but then while installing it said that GRUB couldnt be installed
[19:00] <salamanderrake> so is Deus Ex: Mankind divided
[19:00] <cludz> and so i cant boot
[19:00] <salamanderrake> and mad max is 2015
[19:01] <tomreyn> wuii: looks like you may need the "powerpc64" port rather than "ppc64el". that's for big endian 64-bit ppc.
[19:01] <salamanderrake> virtual programming are the only ones that are "wrapped" in EOn
[19:02] <salamanderrake> and other games that the devs decided to wrap in wine.
[19:02] <Pozzo> cludz: where do you try to install your grub ? on the / partition ? on the MBR of your harddrive ?
[19:02] <ikonia> salamanderrake: no idea who you are trying to convince
[19:02] <Pozzo> do you use msdos or gpt table ?
[19:03] <salamanderrake> ikonia: who are you trying to convince that you even know what native means, your self or others?
[19:03] <wuii> tomreyn: funnily enough the page you linked me to has ppc and ppc64, yet no mention of ppc64el :P
[19:04] <ikonia> salamanderrake: not trying to convince anyone of anything
[19:04] <cludz> Pozzo: where it said "startup manager" (idk how it is in english, im using portuguese. basicily whats under the partitions), i selected the harddrive
[19:04] <tomreyn> wuii: you mean http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/xenial-updates/main/ ?
[19:05] <salamanderrake> ikonia: your trying to convince people you know the difference between wine wrapped, and native, and you don't have a clue. You don't know that games that came out in 2016 ar not old.
[19:06] <ikonia> salamanderrake: not at all,
[19:06] <tomreyn> wuii: i think you best start here: http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/netboot/
[19:06] <wuii> tomreyn: the page the bot linked here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[19:06] <Pozzo> cludz: you have windows already installed on this harddrive ?
[19:07] <cludz> no, i want to have linux only, then if i need windows things i just use wine or VM
[19:07] <tomreyn> wuii: oh ok. the wiki page points to the (outdated) base release images. you'd better use the ones from -updates
[19:08] <Pozzo> cludz: so... during the installation you have chosen the option "using the entire harddrive and let Ubuntu managing everything" ? or you have chosen "other" and manage manually that point ?
[19:08] <Pozzo> I mean : the partition table...
[19:08] <cludz> Pozzo: i selected manually, cause if i let it do it alone, after installing, the computer will say that no boot was found
[19:09] <Pozzo> cludz: could you accept my private query ?
[19:09] <Pozzo> it will be easier to discuss than in the global thread here
[19:11] <wuii> tomreyn: in a roundabout way we are at the same place, I was just pointing out that the minimalcd wiki page doesn't mention ppc64el on it (while it's on the other site that hosts the images), and the largely deprecated big endian powerpc64 (the one I'm after) mini.iso is up there in an easy to find place now I think about it, lol.
[19:11] <bivo> Why is there no audio equalizer in the repos? Something like that should be absolutely basic. I should be able to tweak the audio to bring down the high pitched noises and bring up the vocal range so that I can watch something like this and not have the anvil ring make my ears bleed while also being able to hear what they are saying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv3dPHneGI8
[19:12] <tomreyn> wuii: alright, thanks for explaining. i guess you're all set, good luck.
[19:12] <wuii> thanks for your help too, I really appreciate it
[19:12] <tomreyn> welcome :)

[19:28] <mynameisJulian> Hi
[19:29] <socialevil> Hi guys, i am stucked in a login loop with my 16.04 ubuntu. I tried installing nvidia drivers, kubuntu-desktop, upgrade, dist upgrade.. Nothing works
[19:29] <goose1> socialevil: have you reset lightdm?
[19:29] <goose1> I had that issue before
[19:30] <goose1> socialevil: dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
[19:30] <goose1> OR you need to reset .Xauthority
[19:31] <goose1> Anyway, my apt update is barely working. The hits are taking FOREVER, same with gets. Anyone know what could cause this?
[19:32] <goose1> Example http://i.imgur.com/RaAEbYy.png
[19:32] <socialevil> Yeah.. I did that too
