[20:51] <Guest23006> this is the error
[20:51] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: what jhutchins said... so  sudo cp -R /media/ubuntu/89ac251e-17c6-4c47-b17b-1ebb03a61149/home/etje/.mozilla /home/
[20:51] <Guest23006> cp: omitting directory `/media/ubuntu/89ac251e-17c6-4c47-b17b-1ebb03a61149/home/etje/.mozilla'
[20:51] <ucenik> i know older versions had theme and mouse tweaking. gcursour doesnt do anything
[20:51] <SchrodingersScat> Guest23006: oh, right, -R recursive add the -R
[20:51] <Guest23006> what -R stand for ?
[20:52] <SchrodingersScat> Guest23006: -R, -r, --recursive <--in the man pages 'man cp'
[20:52] <Guest23006> not I try to open firefox and I get
[20:52] <Guest23006> your firefox profile cannot be loaded. it may be missing or inaccessible
[20:53] <ucenik> Guest23006,  what exactly you want to do?
[20:53] <SchrodingersScat> Guest23006: sudo chown -R ubuntu:ubuntu ~/.mozilla # maybe?
[20:53] <FourFire> Ok, nevermind, I figured it out for myself
[20:53] <Guest23006> like I thought you said that I need to copy .mozilla to home and then open firefox so I can export the bookmarks
[20:54] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: after doing the  recursive copy, you will probably need to change the ownership of the copied .mozilla directory and all the file within itto that of you new/current user
[20:54] <ucenik> arent your bookmarks stored in folder that you can access from live cd?
[20:54] <Beldar> Guest23006, You can just use the whole file
[20:54] <intrader> glitsj16: perhaps running gnome will do it; what do you think/
[20:54] <Guest23006> yes but how
[20:54] <SchrodingersScat> i think that's the default user of liveOS anyway...
[20:54] <Guest23006> I am not an expert
[20:54] <Guest23006> my bookmarks are stored in the harddrive which I deleted the grub by mistake
[20:55] <Guest23006> but I can still accesing the files
[20:55] <SchrodingersScat> Guest23006: sudo chown -R $(whoami):$(whoami) ~/.mozilla # maybe?
[20:55] <ucenik> you can restore grub
[20:55] <Beldar> Guest23006, If FF is installed delete the one there and use this folder, if this is to kali it is root I believe so may not be the same is all.
[20:55] <Guest23006> nothing schrodingerscat
[20:55] <Guest23006> I receive nothing
[20:55] <bekks> Guest23006: that command doesnt return anything.
[20:55] <Guest23006> Im using ubuntu live cd
[20:55] <SchrodingersScat> Guest23006: and reopening firefox did nothing?
[20:55] <Guest23006> not bekks
[20:55] <Guest23006> yes it is still appearing
[20:56] <Guest23006> your firefox profile cannot be loaded. it may be missing or inaccessible
[20:56] <Guest23006> when I try to open it
[20:56] <onetinsoldier> you closed firefox and reopened it?
[20:56] <ucenik> http://www.supergrubdisk.org/super-grub2-disk/ Guest23006  and log in into your installation.
[20:56] <Guest23006> yes sir
[20:56] <onetinsoldier> after the 'chown' command?
[20:56] <SchrodingersScat> Guest23006: I would check the folder then, see if you can learn anything, like look at the permissions and owner. also check that you didn't accidentally copy a .mozilla folder into your .mozilla folder.
[20:56] <onetinsoldier> okay
[20:57] <Guest23006> I checked but nothing
[20:57] <Loth> hi
[20:57] <onetinsoldier> Loth: hello
[20:57] <Loth> How stop like spam? http://nedman.fsdascmcvmqgdjhfserha.info/antvrs/#
[20:57] <glitsj16> intrader: well, you can try another desktop environment, but i'd go for something less taxing on the GPU, so i'm not sure if gnome-shell would be an improvement .. try xfce or lxde i'd say ... but in general there's something fundamentally off with your gpu, untill you succeed in tracking that down i believe the overheating issue will keep re-appearing
[20:57] <nashant> Hey guys. Need a little help with apache. For some reason it's not letting me move my web root. If I use /var/www it works fine, if I use /data/www/%site%/public_html it works not. I've replicated the ownerships and permissions, and the full path is executable by the apache user. but still no love. Any ideas?
[20:57] <bekks> Guest23006: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data
[20:58] <Guest23006> I receive
[20:58] <Guest23006> you do not have the permission necessary to view the contents of ".mozilla"
[20:58] <Guest23006> when I try to open the file I copied
[20:58] <Madkiss> ActionParsnip: what on earth are you talking about?
[20:58] <Guest23006> I mean I love ubuntu but I am dying slowly here
[20:58] <Loth> Im in chromium + adblock but he no stop this adv http://nedman.fsdascmcvmqgdjhfserha.info/antvrs/#
[20:59] <Guest23006> I just need the bookmarks :S
[20:59] <Loth> why?
[20:59] <glitsj16> intrader: or try the fallback options from the login manager when you log out, depending on your exact ubuntu version there should be something like unity-2d or named similar
[20:59] <bekks> Guest23006: then look at the /media/ubuntu/..... location, to find your bookmarks.
[20:59] <jhutchins> Guest23006: So fix the permissions.
[20:59] <Madkiss> ActionParsnip: I mean http://releases.ubuntu.com/saucy/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64+mac.iso
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> Guest23006: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.mozilla
[20:59] <intrader> glitsj16: nouveau must be using it also - I wish it had the sensor for gpu temp
[20:59] <Guest23006> where it says
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> Madkiss: grab the amd64 ISO and it will work, you dont need the mac bit
[20:59] <Guest23006> $user $user
[20:59] <Guest23006> do I change something ?
[20:59] <Beldar> Loth, use the noscript variation.
[20:59] <glitsj16> intrader: that last option doesn't need anything newly installed and should show if that changes anything pretty much immediately
[21:00] <Guest23006> how do I fix the permission ?
[21:00] <bekks> Guest23006: you replace it with your actual username you are currently using.
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> Guest23006: run the command as I gave it, it will work
[21:00] <bekks> ah ok.
[21:00] <Guest23006> I did
[21:00] <Guest23006> but nothing happen brother
[21:00] <glitsj16> intrader: what does the 'sensors' command output? paste that somewhere if you want
[21:00] <Madkiss> ActionParsnip: I just did that, and got to exactly the same place I had been to before
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> Bekks: no need, $USER is your username of the person running command. Try: echo $USER
[21:01] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: ls -ld .mozilla    ...what do you get?
[21:01] <bekks> ActionParsnip: sudo echo $USER would be more interesting :)
[21:01] <Madkiss> ActionParsnip: I get a warning that the installation couldn't install grun, and then I get redirected into the Grub menu
[21:01] <jhutchins> Notice the difference between $user and $USER
[21:01] <Madkiss> which tells me it can not find its configuration file
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> Madkiss: could boot to liveCD, chroot to the installed OS and manually install Grub to the MBR
[21:01] <intrader> glitsj16: about the 'A' option: grep: option requires an argument -- 'A'
[21:01] <Madkiss> ActionParsnip: what would be the MBR target?
[21:02] <Guest23006> okay when I do ls -ld .mozilla
[21:02] <Guest23006> I get
[21:02] <Guest23006> d--------- 4 ubuntu ubuntu 80 Dec 15 19:24 .mozilla
[21:02] <Guest23006> that it is what I get
[21:02] <Beldar> Loth, clear your cookies and history, that link is blocked in noscript here.
[21:02] <ActionParsnip> Madkiss /dev/sda is common, whatever your drive is called
[21:02] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: ahh-ha!
[21:02] <Guest23006> :) did find something ?
[21:02] <onetinsoldier> yes
[21:02] <Guest23006> heureca ?
[21:03] <glitsj16> intrader: is that from the 'sudo lspci -k | egrep 'VGA|use' | grep VGA -A 1' command? the 1 is the argument..
[21:03] <Guest23006> nice
[21:03] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: chmod ug+rw .mozilla
[21:03] <intrader> glitsj16: ah, lol, I mmissed it
[21:03] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: oops
[21:03] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: chmod ug+rwx .mozilla
[21:03] <ActionParsnip> Bekks: why? Sudo uses your user's profile so sudo echo $USER will output the same as echo $USER
[21:03] <glitsj16> intrader: no worries
[21:04] <ucenik> can someone tell me how to change mouse theme in ubuntu 12.04 unity2D? coz i cant find it and everything i find on internet includes terminal
[21:04] <Madkiss> ActionParsnip: grub-install /dev/sda doesn't work and returns "can not install grub"
[21:04] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: then close out firefox and try again
[21:04] <ucenik> but i want to use comicsand cursors for lefthand
[21:04] <Guest23006> ;p;
[21:04] <Guest23006> lol
[21:04] <Guest23006> onetinsoldier
[21:04] <onetinsoldier> hehe
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> Madkiss: is the internal drive /dev/sad ?
[21:04] <Guest23006> you are the boss maaaaan
[21:05] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: cheers. enjoy
[21:05] <intrader> glitsj16: ah, lol, I mmissed it; without the last grep I can also see it - the list is not too long
[21:05] <Guest23006> onetinsoldier
[21:05] <Guest23006> can I ask you something
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> Guest23006: permissions are important, as are owners.
[21:05] <Guest23006> can you explain me what did happen ?
[21:05] <Guest23006> and what was the problem ?
[21:05] <Madkiss> ActionParsnip: sda is the flash drive, yes.
[21:05] <Guest23006> thank you actionparnsip for your help too
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> Guest23006: the folder had nobody allowed to access it so the Firefox process couldnt launch
[21:06] <Guest23006> ouh okay
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> Madkiss: is there any protection on it in a hardware sense?
[21:06] <Guest23006> what a shame
[21:06] <glitsj16> intrader: what does 'ls -lh /usr/share/xsessions/' output? that should give me a clue on what other sessiàon you might try
[21:06] <Guest23006> can you explain me what then chmod ug+rwx .mozilla
[21:06] <Guest23006> did ?
[21:06] <glitsj16> *session
[21:06] <Guest23006> to .mozilla ?
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> Guest23006: not hard to fix
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> Guest23006: firefox, not mozila
[21:07] <ActionParsnip> Guest23006: read: man chmod
[21:07] <intrader> glitsj16: thanks for your help; I keep on searching for gpu overheating problem on lenovo t61p
[21:07] <Madkiss> ActionParsnip: I don't think so.
[21:07] <Guest23006> thank you
[21:07] <Guest23006> one question more
[21:07] <ActionParsnip> Madkiss: if you chroot from liveCD and get updated, does it help?
[21:07] <david__> Guest23006 chmod 777
[21:07] <glitsj16> intrader: yes i've tried looking with that t61p as well but nothing usefull yet
[21:07] <Guest23006> everything is cooll
[21:08] <Guest23006> but I can still not find the firefox bookmarks
[21:08] <bekks> david__: chmod ug+rwx is 770 not 777.
[21:08] <ActionParsnip> david__: please do the community a favour and never advise 777
[21:08] <Guest23006> david
[21:08] <Guest23006> what you trying to say
[21:08] <Guest23006> explain me
[21:08] <Guest23006> chmod 777 ?
[21:08] <Guest23006> what does it mean ?
[21:08] <FloodBot1> Guest23006: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:08] <david__> sorry
[21:08] <bekks> Guest23006: No. Dont run that.
[21:09] <Guest23006> a okay  but  just for interest
[21:09] <ActionParsnip> Guest23006: the web will tell you. Its very simple
[21:09] <bekks> Guest23006: It is explained in "man chmod".
[21:09] <Guest23006> what does it mean
[21:09] <Guest23006> a okay
[21:09] <Guest23006> that is okay
[21:09] <david__> the permision user and group is 770
[21:09] <Guest23006> but now I cannot find the firefox bookmark
[21:10] <david__> in order to fin you can more commands
[21:10] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: it means that it made the directory , readable, writeable, and executable, for the "owner" and "group" of the directory
[21:11] <ucenik> http://askubuntu.com/questions/218450/firefox-bookmarks-in-the-ubuntu-files-system
[21:11] <Guest23006> that is perfect
[21:11] <Guest23006> thank you I already understand
[21:11] <onetinsoldier> Guest23006: okay, cool
[21:11] <Guest23006> now that we gained access to .mozilla
[21:11] <Guest23006> I would like to know where the bookmarks are stored ?
[21:12] <bekks> Guest23006: Please read the link given.
[21:12] <onetinsoldier> i think in a .json file?
[21:12] <bekks> Guest23006: http://askubuntu.com/questions/218450/firefox-bookmarks-in-the-ubuntu-files-system
[21:12] <bekks> onetinsoldier: No, it is an xml most likely, no json.
[21:12] <onetinsoldier> bekks: okay, thank you
[21:12] <ucenik> :(
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> Could switch to Chrome, all bookmarks stored on the cloud. Easys
[21:13] <onetinsoldier> onetinsoldier@pikes-peak:~/.mozilla$ find -name *.json -print
[21:13] <onetinsoldier> ./firefox/lm4vx022.default/bookmarkbackups/bookmarks-2013-12-13_10.json
[21:14] <bekks> onetinsoldier: "The bookmarks are actually stored in bookmarks.html if you just want that."
[21:14] <onetinsoldier> lloks like it could be .json files to me. i had a number of them. they have the word "bookmarks" as part of the filename
[21:14] <ActionParsnip> onetinsoldier: could use -iname instead, no case sensitivity then :-)
[21:14] <bekks> onetinsoldier: Those json files are backups.
[21:14] <onetinsoldier> bekks: roger. when you back them up using firefox, you are given a choice, as .json or as html
[21:15] <glitsj16> intrader: there's a very nice tool to share information on IRC called pastebinit, if you install that you could provide the channel with the url you get after use .. eases the communication here .. i'm interested in some outputs to get you to have gpu temp readings at least, and to advise on other session options .. take your time and tell me if you have that installed
[21:15] <onetinsoldier> bekks: i have backed them up  using firefox before and selected .json... and then used the  .json file to restore in a brand new install. just sayin'
[21:16] <glitsj16> !pastebinit | intrader
[21:16] <darsho> i just installed ubuntu but it doesnt seem to shut down my laptop can someone please help me
[21:16] <onetinsoldier> the one thing i know for certain is, that i know nothing at all
[21:16] <Anuska> hi, i use ddclient and when i reboot the sistem give me some messange to add ddclinet in daemon....
[21:16] <ActionParsnip> Darsho: if you run: sudo shutdown -h now ,does it power off ok?
[21:17] <Anuska> run_daemon=”true”
[21:17] <darsho> no it doesnt
[21:17] <ucenik> i want to use custom mouse theme that i downloaded but i cant find in settings how to just change mouse theme. ubuntu 12.04 unity 2D
[21:17] <darkelfjuggalo> Could someone remind me how to uninstall an application
[21:17] <ActionParsnip> Darsho: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[21:17] <ucenik> darkelfjuggalo, open ubuntu software center and click on installed
[21:18] <darsho> im new to linux how would i check
[21:18] <darkelfjuggalo> ucenik ; Command line
[21:18] <Guest23006> OMG
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> Darsho: press CTRL+ALT+T and run it there
[21:18] <Guest23006> I only have .json files
[21:18] <onetinsoldier> darkelfjuggalo: what was it installed by? you mean "dpkg --remove <package>  ?
[21:18] <Guest23006> not .html files
[21:18] <Guest23006> bookmarks
[21:19] <ucenik> darkelfjuggalo, "sudo apt-get remove" i think, but not sure
[21:19] <darkelfjuggalo> I installed it command line from repository [Command line is easer than the software center for me, it freezes on me too much]
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> ucenik: tried using unity tweak tool
[21:20] <onetinsoldier> darkelfjuggalo: try..  sudo dpkg --remove <package_name>
[21:20] <ucenik> Guest23006, copy those json files, login into real installation, and then from there google how to use json files. thats how i resolved similar problem
[21:21] <ActionParsnip> Darsho: what is the output please?
[21:22] <darkelfjuggalo> but the really odd thing is, when Software center is working says the program isn't installed but I have theprogram running
[21:22] <SteveBell1> hi all. having issues configuring samba under ubuntu
[21:23] <SteveBell1> I managed to setup a sharing folder via terminal
[21:23] <SteveBell1> but can't get the ex hdd setup correctly
[21:23] <david_hm94> Hey?
[21:24] <ActionParsnip> Stevebell1: is the external partition NTFS by any chance?
[21:24] <SteveBell1> Hi ActionParsnip no it's ext 4 or 3 but ext for sure
[21:24] <ActionParsnip> Stevebell1 ok good that makes things a whole lot wasier
[21:24] <Guest23006> ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ chmod ug+rwx .mozilla
[21:24] <Guest23006> chmod: changing permissions of `.mozilla': Operation not permitted
[21:24] <ucenik> ActionParsnip, can you suggest a way to install proper version of unity tweak tool for ubuntu 12.04
[21:25] <ucenik> also, my head is starting to hurt and i wanna curse at people who made it so hard to do something as simple as changing mouse theme
[21:25] <Guest23006> ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ chmod ug+rwx .mozilla
[21:25] <Guest23006> chmod: changing permissions of `.mozilla': Operation not permitted
[21:25] <Guest23006> I get this :S
[21:25] <Guest23006> now
[21:25] <SteveBell1> 13.10 here. and says samba (gui) is installed but does not show under software. when I enter samba in dash and select programs I see the samba gui but when clicking on that ubuntu software center opens
[21:26] <nashant> I've just run htop and it looks like I've got 7 apache processes running. 1 as root and 6 as www. Does this sound right?
[21:26] <koell> i never understand those ppl changing their mouse theme. doesnt matter
[21:26] <onetinsoldier> ucenik: been a long time since I installed a downloaded mouse cursor theme. i have done it before, but it was a lot of headache before i finally achieved success, so i kinda know what you mean. however, it is free software. you  could always code a new user-friendly method! ;-)
[21:26] <SteveBell1> I can then select to install but install does not begin nor finish
[21:28] <aisey> Hi, how to switch ( settings ) ext graphic/ inter. graphic
[21:28] <ucenik> onetinsoldier true, but how with all the stuff done with linux and ubuntu people who code stuff cant make a simple official way to change mouse theme
[21:28] <ActionParsnip> Ucenik: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak
[21:28] <glitsj16> nashant: looks normal yes, it gets that information from /etc/apache2/apache2.conf --> StartServers, Min/MaxSpareServers and the like to let you configure your apache to accomodate your traffic use
[21:29] <ucenik> also, im lefthanded and i wanna use my right to complain because of discrimination :p even microsoft had nice left had cursors easy to install
[21:29] <intrader> glitsj16: thanks for your help; got a lot from 'gpu overheating problem on lenovo t61p' - I wich it had intel graphics
[21:29] <ActionParsnip> Stevebell1: you can use nautilus to share folders
[21:29] <paul__> Is 10.04 outdated?
[21:29] <intrader> glitsj16: I don't quite understand why Windows XP on same machine does not overheat!
[21:30] <ActionParsnip> paul__: it is not supported on the desktop. It is only supported on the server
[21:30] <paul__> I have a lexmark printer that works with the driver for 10.04 but not 12.04
[21:30] <paul__> why do I keep getting occasional updates with 10.04?
[21:30] <ActionParsnip> paul__: are there any bugs reported?
[21:30] <glitsj16> intrader: nice, me neither .. that's why i think you need to make a bug report on it
[21:30] <onetinsoldier> ucenik: there is actually a linux way to change it that's all set up and not too awful hard once you know it, but installing one is another matter
[21:30] <paul__> no how can I report the bug?
[21:30] <nashant> glitsj16: The I'm at a complete loss as to why I can't change my web root then
[21:30] <ActionParsnip> Paul__: things on the server which are also in the desktop will get updates
[21:31] <ActionParsnip> paul__: run: ubuntu-bug cups
[21:31] <SteveBell1> ActionParsnip: here's where I'm at: I managed to setup the smb.conf so I now have a folder which I can access from both osx and ubuntu. yey :) - but now I need to setup the ex hdd. any idea how to deal with that?
[21:31] <paul__> why do I run that?
[21:31] <paul__> where do I run that?
[21:32] <ActionParsnip> Stevebell1: then share the folder just like the one you already shared, the method is identical
[21:32] <ActionParsnip> paul__: in a terminal.....
[21:32] <paul__> ubuntu-bug cups
[21:33] <SteveBell1> ActionParsnip: well that would give anybody full read write access to the entire ex hdd not sure if that is ideal
[21:33] <paul__> is anyone going to care about the driver not being supported in 12.04?
[21:33] <onetinsoldier> ucenik: update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme
[21:33] <ActionParsnip> Stevebell1: the mounted us drive will mount to a folder, share that folder.
[21:33] <SteveBell1> so maybe allowing registered users only would be smart
[21:33] <nashant> glitsj16 (or anyone): can you see any problems with this VHost? https://gist.github.com/anonymous/7978473
[21:33] <ucenik> onetinsoldier, something as simple should not require any terminal or indepth knowlage
[21:33] <ActionParsnip> Stevebell1: you can use samba passwords to grant the access you want
[21:34] <SteveBell1> yes but I'm totally unsure which part of the smb.conf what needs to be adjusted
[21:34] <ucenik> ActionParsnip, i think i made it, i will log off and on to see if its changed
[21:34] <ActionParsnip> Stevebell1: sudo smbpasswd -a username ,you can then add lines to smb.conf to give rad only, fulll or zero access to a share
[21:34] <gregor3005> hi, does anybody use a wiimote with 13.10? when i try to pair with wminput i saw a entry in the log but wminput doesn't close and i cant use the device. i get this line: "input: Nintendo Wiimote as /devices/virtual/input/input25"

[21:37] <darsho> i tried shutdown -h now and ubuntu doesnt shut down
[21:37] <nashant> glitsj16: and error.log https://gist.github.com/anonymous/7978511
[21:37] <ActionParsnip> darsho: i thought you said it didnt work, why are you reporting it again?
[21:37] <glitsj16> nashant: looks ok, i think you need to take a look at permissions for the stuff you marked as "Not working" ..
[21:37] <gregor3005> normally it should create a device /dev/input/js* as i had it with my ps3 controller (replica)
[21:38] <darsho> h ow can i fix this
[21:38] <glitsj16> nashant: perhaps use http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2185429&highlight=apache+virtual+host+non-default+documentroot as a guide
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> Darsho: will you answer my question please? I asked you if the command worked and you said no, then now you are just saying you tried it. Which is it?
[21:40] <glitsj16> nashant: and try asking in #apache, much more knowledgeable people there for your specific issue
[21:40] <darsho> the crtl alt t brought the terminal up
[21:40] <nashant> glitsj16: I think it's #httpd, and it's dead in there
[21:40] <darsho> and the shut down command u gave me didnt work
[21:40] <nashant> I tried already
[21:41] <glitsj16> nashant: okay, so have you looked at your permissions on those /data/www/... directories and files?
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> Darsho: then why did you need to test it? When i asked you you said 'no' like you'd already tried it. Now. Did you already try it or did you say 'no' to something else?
[21:42] <darsho> i just tried it when u told me
[21:42] <ActionParsnip> Darsho: does the system have a make and model?
[21:42] <nashant> glitsj16: Yup. all apart from /data (ant:www) are owned by www:www, all directories are 775
[21:43] <darsho> dell lattitude d620
[21:43] <ActionParsnip> darsho: do you have the latest BIOS?
[21:43] <darsho> not too sure
[21:44] <ucenik> ActionParsnip,  onetinsoldier it changed just for programs that i launch, like firefox or xchat, but not for desktop
[21:44] <darsho> how can i find out
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> Ucenik: log off and on
[21:44] <MonkeyDust> darsho  what was your first question?
[21:44] <ucenik> i did
[21:44] <ucenik> but i will again
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> Darsho: sudo dmidecode -t 1 ,will show the current BIOS version
[21:45] <glitsj16> nashant: i can't give you anything usefull in that case, looks ok from what i can tell .. patience and retry to ask here until someone more knowledgeable chimes in
[21:45] <onetinsoldier> i think he might need to restart X
[21:46] <nashant> glitsj16: Cheers for trying. I really don't bloody get it

[22:12] <glitsj16> intrader: i found a bug report that looks very similar to your issue at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/751689 .. wish i could say there's an easy fix, but there doesn't seem to be one (yet) .. at least changing some bios settings can work for some setups, maybe you can go over it and see what you can work with .. succes mate
[22:13] <al__la> Hey all, quick question. Fresh 13.10 install, went to Google+ and upon pop-up, installed web app.  Once installed, the launcher icon is a gray question mark.  Searching dash shows blank file icon.  Clicking launcher takes me to correct though.  I purged unity-webapps-googleplus, re-installed and still same problem.  This happens for all of my web apps, but other programs seem fine.  Another symptom: no web apps have integrated into messaging
[22:13] <al__la>  notification (other programs like xchat can).  Any ideas?
[22:14] <darsho> actionparnip
[22:16] <squee_> I have a question about something... when I log out or shut down, I notice that there is always the picture of some program I had been running earlier that pops up. Almost like a screenshot. What is this?
[22:17] <onetinsoldier> squee_: a buffer i think
[22:17] <onetinsoldier> squee_: you get a quick look at some buffered memory
[22:17] <squee_> that's what I figured
[22:17] <onetinsoldier> ya
[22:19] <SteveBell1> I got more samba issues under ubuntu: trying to setup a user now with sudo smbpasswd -a steve, get asked for new pw twice but then it says "Failed to add entry for user steve." anybody anyidea?
[22:19] <mourtus> there is a chanel for beginers
[22:19] <compdoc> is there a user named steve?
[22:20] <SteveBell1> compdoc: no not yet. I was about to create that or does that not work that way?
[22:20] <compdoc> smbpasswd is for samba
[22:20] <mourtus> hello eny help for a keyboard probleme
[22:21] <SteveBell1> compdoc: so do I understand that I need to use the username that is used on the machine on which samba is running?
[22:22] <darsho> i need somehelp ubuntu is not shutting down
[22:22] <darsho> someone was helping me then left
[22:23] <squee_> ...sudo shutdown doesn't work?
[22:23] <darsho> no
[22:23] <bekks> darsho: sudo shutdown -h now
[22:23] <bekks> that will help ;)
[22:23] <darsho> doesnt work
[22:23] <squee_> what does/doesn't happen?
[22:24] <Sebastien> Any ideas why i get this error while trying to install from CD: http://puu.sh/5NSLZ.png
[22:24] <Sebastien> well, burned dvd
[22:24] <darsho> it just says ubuntu and thats all doesnt shut down
[22:24] <darsho> http://www.linlap.com/dell_latitude_d620
[22:24] <bekks> Sebastien: Thats wubi. It isnt compatible with Windows 8. Never ever use Wubi.
[22:24] <Calinou> Sebastien, don't use wubi
[22:24] <darsho> some guy pointed me to this sit but now sure what to do
[22:24] <Calinou> it is not supported
[22:25] <bekks> darsho: What happens when you type "sudo shutdown -h now" in a terminal?
[22:25] <Sebastien> bekks, Calinou. its not "wubi" its the download file the ubuntu-12.04.3-desktop-i386.iso i burned on a DVD
[22:26] <Sebastien> how can it be outdated if its the main download link on the site, this makes no sense to me.
[22:26] <darsho> it just says ubuntu the dots go white and it just stays on that screen
[22:26] <bekks> Sebastien: And you are using the windows ubuntu installer called wubi.
[22:26] <Sebastien> well, i put in the cd, and i click RUN
[22:26] <bekks> Sebastien: Thats wubi then. It isnt supported.
[22:26] <Sebastien> HOW AM I SUPPOSE TO INSTALLI IT THEN!
[22:26] <bekks> Sebastien: Boot your computer from that cd.
[22:26] <Sebastien> om :x

[22:34] <Guest23006> have someone here made a dual booting in a external HDD ???
[22:35] <trijntje> Guest23006: yes
[22:35] <Guest23006> can you please help me bro ?
[22:35] <Guest23006> I got some question
[22:36] <ddsss_> does anyone know when Ubuntu's owncloud  package gonna get updated to 6.0.0a?
[22:37] <trijntje> Guest23006: if you ask your questions here, anyone can help you ;)
[22:37] <ST0RMHAWK> I'm running ubuntu 12.04, my friend has windows 7 and I want to screw with him a little... I have his ip address, is there any way I could maybe send a message to him that pops up in cmd prompt like net_send would?
[22:37] <Guest23006> okay ,, the question is how did you do it
[22:37] <Guest23006> because when I tried, I installed ubuntu and kali linux
[22:37] <trijntje> ddsss_: in general apps only get upgraded with a new version of ubuntu
[22:37] <Guest23006> I installed ubuntu first
[22:37] <Guest23006> and then kali
[22:38] <Guest23006> after when I reboot
[22:38] <FloodBot1> Guest23006: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:38] <Guest23006> I only see the kali grub
[22:38] <trijntje> Guest23006: sounds like something went wrong with the install of kali, so you'd have to ask them
[22:39] <Guest23006> ask them who ?
[22:39] <xangua> ddsss_: use the ppa own cloud mentions on it's Sir
[22:39] <xangua> Site
[22:40] <trijntje> Guest23006: I mean ask support from kali, I've never heard of that distribution so I cant help you with that
[22:40] <ddsss_> xangua, do you use their ppa?
[22:40] <Guest23006> lol, it will take long to get an answer
[22:40] <xangua> ddsss_: no
[22:40] <ddsss_> xangua, do u uyse owncloud?
[22:40] <xangua> ddsss_: no
[22:40] <Guest23006> I just would like to know how did you get it working the dual boot in a external hdd
[22:41] <darsho>      will i guess u guys are bussy
[22:41] <darsho> maybe  i will come back another day
[22:41] <ddsss_> xangua, I've tried their ppa - it seems to break things though.
[22:42] <alex8022> hey everyone, I have ubuntu installed as a guest in virtualbox, and i'm trying to install virtualbox-guest-x11 so that my display will resize when I increase the size of the virtualbox window. When I run apt-get install virtualbox-guest-x11, I get the error here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6580737/ . Does anyone know why this isn't working or how to fix it?
[22:42] <trijntje> Guest23006: did you install ubuntu or kali on the external hd?
[22:43] <xangua> ddsss_: then contact to their ppa  manteiners
[22:43] <Guest23006> yes
[22:43] <Guest23006> kali
[22:44] <ddsss_> xangua, yeah - I guess Ill do that then.
[22:44] <Icehawk78> I just got a new hard drive, and was wondering, what's the best/easiest way to copy my system over from my old one to my new one?
[22:44] <ST0RMHAWK> I have my friends ip and he's running windows, is there anyway I can send him a message or something I need to get his attention somehow, any ideas?
[22:44] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: try the following command and tell me if you  get anything back from it --> dpkg -l | grep ^ih
[22:44] <trijntje> Icehawk78: check out clonezilla, you can run it from a live cd/usb
[22:45] <trijntje> Guest23006: try running sudo update-grub in kali
[22:45] <Icehawk78> trijntje: Is there anything that doesn't require a live cd/usb? I can find one if needed, but I don't have one yet
[22:45] <trijntje> ST0RMHAWK: try facebook ;)
[22:46] <ST0RMHAWK> right well thats why I want to get his attention so he will check his messages
[22:46] <ST0RMHAWK> he's sitting there watch movies
[22:46] <alex8022> onetinsoldier: ran that command, didn't return anything
[22:46] <trijntje> Icehawk78: I don't think its possible to move a running system from one HD to another, so you'll always have to use a live system
[22:46] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: hmmm. try --> sudo  agt-get -f install
[22:46] <onetinsoldier> oops
[22:46] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: hmmm. try --> sudo apt-get -f install
[22:48] <alex8022> onetinsoldier: ok, that command shows a couple packages that are no longer required, but didn't do anything
[22:48] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: i might have had the first one a little backwards. i;m not sure.... you could try,   dpkg -l | grep ^hi
[22:48] <alex8022> onetinsoldier: still no return
[22:49] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: i don't know really. try one more thing if you  want,    sudo aptitude install virtualbox-guest-x11
[22:50] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: you might not have aptitude installed
[22:50] <alex8022> ya, installing it now..
[22:51] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: cool
[22:51] <xangua> !aptitude
[22:51] <Ben64> why aptitude?
[22:51] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: it has a pretty resolver, that resolves package issue a lot of the  time
[22:51] <Ben64> actually, as it says above, can cause more problems
[22:52] <onetinsoldier> Ben64: you can always say 'N' if you don't like what it offers. anyway, i love aptitude and use it almost exclusively, but  to each his own
[22:54] <onetinsoldier> what i mean is... you can always say 'N' if you don't like what it offers up as a solution
[22:54] <Ben64> same thing with apt-get, except with less problems
[22:54] <onetinsoldier> roger
[22:56] <amir_> hi
[22:56] <alex8022> ok, so tried the aptitude command, it found conflicts.  The recommended action includes removing ubuntu-desktop, xorg, and a bunch of xserver packages... that seems like it would make things worse..
[22:57] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: say N to that
[22:57] <alex8022> ya, i did
[22:57] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: or whatever to reject that solution. but it should give you some insight maybe
[22:58] <Ben64> alex8022: pastebin the output of this command... "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[23:00] <alex8022> ok, here it is: paste.ubuntu.com/6580794/ .  It looks like everything went normally and is up to date.
[23:00] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: new updates got installed?
[23:00] <alex8022> no, already up to date
[23:00] <onetinsoldier> ahh, roger that
[23:01] <alex8022> its a new vm image, just made it yesterday, did clean install, apt-get update upgrade dist-upgrade, added nginx so far, and trying to get virtualbox-guest working correctly
[23:01] <onetinsoldier> alex8022: you have any ppa's in your system?
[23:01] <alex8022> just the default ones, haven't added any
[23:01] <onetinsoldier> okay
[23:02] <xangua> Why are backport repositories enabled by default in Ubuntu?
[23:02] <Ben64> wait you are trying to install vbox in a vm?
[23:03] <phunyguy> Argh.... 12.04 keeps assuming /dev/sda as device to install grub to!!!
[23:03] <alex8022> the guest additions package, ya
[23:03] <phunyguy> Why does it keep doing that????
[23:03] <Ben64> use vbox to install those?
[23:04] <Ben64> the installer phunyguy?
[23:04] <phunyguy> Ben64, yes, and sorry, meant that for #ubuntu-server, but I guess it can't hurt to ask here
[23:05] <Ben64> well thats the first drive where you'd normally be booting from
[23:05] <phunyguy> I selected /dev/sdd as the device to install to, but it still wants to choose /dev/sda as grub location.
[23:05] <alex8022> ya, tried that too.   I thought they fixed that, but maybe not for the lts. You can still manually change that during installation iirc
[23:06] <Ben64> maybe ask the vbox channel then, alex8022
[23:06] <phunyguy> trijntje, any idea where?
[23:06] <phunyguy> I found no such option
[23:06] <alex8022> is that #vbox?
[23:06] <Ben64> i think so
[23:06] <trijntje> phunyguy: I know its there in the graphical installer, not sure about the text one
[23:06] <phunyguy> :(
[23:06] <Shirakawasuna> I'm looking to install ubuntu (or maybe debian, but preferably ubuntu) on 10-20 servers, with the hope of building a small cluster (and also run a website off one of them). I'm having trouble figuring out my best option for installing to a bunch of machines at once and then managing them - ubuntu has this maas thing, there's also FAI (fully automated installation), things like cobbler, etc - I'm not sure what's really the 'be
[23:06] <Shirakawasuna> st' modern way to do this.
[23:07] <Shirakawasuna> anyone have suggestions or opinions? I appreciate any feedback.
[23:07] <phunyguy> I will just try to disable the other drives, but the other issue is, it sometimes assumes /dev/sda is the USB stick
[23:07] <MonkeyDust> Shirakawasuna  better ask in #ubuntu-server, i guess
[23:08] <Shirakawasuna> MonkeyDust: good idea

[23:10] <al__la> fication (other programs like xchat can). Ideas on what's wrong?
[23:14] <shagelito> Greetings #ubuntu ! So i donwloaded Debian. I made the dumb choice to mix repo in sources.list with kali ones. I had a lib related problem, so i went on #debian to seek help. Then i have been told that i was actualy runing a Kali distro. So i removed Kali stuff in sources.list. apt-get update + apt-get upgrade + apt-get dit-upgrade. Now, when i do a uname -a, the prompt tells me : Linux Hal 3.8.0-19-generic #29-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr
[23:14] <phunyguy> kali is ubuntu based
[23:14] <phunyguy> no?
[23:14] <coventry> If someone with a Mac wants to share their screen with me, is there a port they can reverse-forward ("ssh -R") to me which I can then connect to with Remote Desktop?
[23:17] <michagogo|cloud> phunyguy: Nah, it's a Debian-based distro
[23:17] <michagogo|cloud> phunyguy: It's the successor to Backtrack, which is a modified Ubuntu
[23:17] <phunyguy> ahhh... maybe that was backtrack
[23:17] <phunyguy> ahh.
[23:18] <smaudet> phunyguy, a lot of the Ubuntu based derivatives decided to go it alone and use Debian instead
[23:18] <michagogo|cloud> phunyguy: http://www.kali.org/news/kali-linux-whats-new/
[23:19] <chaotix> hey all...  i am thinking of purchasing this laptop, but before i do, i wanted to know if i will have any problems installing and using ubuntu linux on it...

[23:19] <daftykins> lets see
[23:19] <daftykins> have you googled the model name to check?
[23:20] <shagelito> whats weird is that i keep having this ugly kali splash screen despite what uname -a returns
[23:20] <Ben64> shagelito: we support only ubuntu here. not debian, not kali
[23:20] <ikonia> shagelito: how is this anything to do with #ubuntu ?
[23:21] <shagelito> even if uname -a give me a ubuntu answer ?
[23:21] <Ben64> correct
[23:21] <daftykins> chaotix: there's no detail of what the wifi adapter is, so it's hard to say ahead of time. a celeron based one won't be the fastest either, but it'll run
[23:21] <chaotix> daftykins, thaqnks...  lol i dont know why i didnt do that first
[23:21] <chaotix> i guess i didnt think it would be that easy
[23:21] <shagelito> thks anyway then
[23:22] <Ben64> shagelito: i'd imagine neither debian or kali help channels would want to touch your frankensystem either
[23:23] <Ivanov> Heyfolks
[23:23] <Ivanov> got a question about installing linux
[23:23] <chaotix> so i should hopefully be fine...  from what i have read, as long as i disable secure boot i should be able to install any distro i want
[23:23] <Ivanov> i am on a different distro and trying to switch to Ubuntu
[23:23] <Ivanov> but i can't seem to install it either off my flash drive or from the hard disk using the iso
[23:23] <phunyguy> Ivanov, ask... and please try to keep it in a single line
[23:24] <Ivanov> yeah sorry, basically, i can't seem to make it work off my usb drive no matter what i try
[23:24] <chaotix> i havn't bought a brand new laptop in a long time, but i have installed ubuntu on a few machines, and  i never seeem to have driver problems
[23:24] <chaotix> fingers crossed
[23:24] <debiansarmy> Hello
[23:24] <chaotix> :)
[23:24] <chaotix> bye
[23:25] <phunyguy> Ivanov, an error message that you get would help immensely. :)
[23:25] <Ivanov> i dont get an error message sadly
[23:25] <Ivanov> it just doesnt boot off the usb, it sits there with the flashing underscore waiting forever
[23:26] <Ivanov> i end up unplugging USB after 10 minutes, restarting into SteamOS and trying again
[23:26] <debiansarmy>
[23:27] <debiansarmy>
[23:28] <debiansarmy> 4,1
[23:28] <Ben64> debiansarmy: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[23:29] <debiansarmy> Ben64 sorry on android phone messing with androidirc settings.
[23:30] <Ben64> debiansarmy: please do that elsewhere

[23:32] <debiansarmy> Help
[23:33] <ikonia> debiansarmy: you know it is
[23:33] <debiansarmy> Talk later! Settings are driving me nuts!
[23:33] <ikonia> debiansarmy: you've been told it is - stop it
[23:34] <Ivanov> do i have to do something special to make my usb drive boot? i followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/amd64/boot-usb-files.html
[23:35] <adamjames> i am trying to get an atheros usb wifi adapter working on 12.04. it has chipset AR5523, i have searched the web and followed the guides that seem to have worked for other folks. lsusb shows the device but no firmware. i have copied the firmware to /lib/firmware and done modprobe ar5523 and still no luck. can anyone help me get this going?
[23:36] <adamjames> i know its odd for wifi on the server machine. i have a device that connects only over wifi that i would like to use with this machine
[23:36] <Beldar> Ivanov, Kinda old method, what happens when you try to boot it?
[23:36] <Ivanov> Beldar, it just sits and does nothing, i end up waiting too long, unplugging USB and booting back into my other distro
[23:37] <Ivanov> i just want to wipe everything out and put Ubuntu on D:
[23:37] <Ivanov> but have no DVDs/CDs to burn on
[23:37] <Makkzor> hello hello, anyone professional enough to tell me what ports are needed on a 4G usb modem to access internet? i suspect DHCP and DNS. thnkx.
[23:37] <Beldar> Ivanov, does nothing means what, do you see a blinking cursor, black screen?
[23:37] <james__> Any way I can setup a mouse stroke recording macro?
[23:37] <james__> newbie question but, well im a newbie
[23:37] <Ivanov> Beldar, right on the nose
[23:38] <Beldar> Ivanov, Not a big deal D means nothing here we deal with partitions, use this, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
[23:39] <glitsj16> adamjames: http://askubuntu.com/questions/280242/how-to-install-ar5523-chipset-wifi-in-ubuntu-12-04 might be worth a look if you haven't already
[23:39] <Ivanov> i will look
[23:39] <james__> I'm trying to record and replay my mouse gestures and clicks, is there a program or do I need to script it?
[23:39] <Ivanov> beldar, oh, i dont get a black screen like that, i just get the static blinking cursor
[23:41] <Beldar> Ivanov, try the nomodeset boot, if your getting the first gui of try or install, or check memory hit f6 and choose nomodeset.
[23:41] <james__> Can I get some help?
[23:41] <Ivanov> beldar, nope im not even getting that far
[23:41] <Ivanov> beldar, it just doesnt even want to boot off the USB, it sits on blinking cursor forever and goes nowhere
[23:42] <bitbyte_> Hey guys just installed sick beard and using it command line any ideas on navigation never come across the python interface before
[23:42] <Beldar> Ivanov, What OS do you have to load the usb?
[23:42] <Ivanov> beldar, best considered Debian wheezy, but technically it's SteamOS 1.0 beta
[23:44] <theinterrobanger> howdy ... I'm having some issues with mongodb, which I may possibly be an issue with a faulty volume group, but I'm not sure, and I'm not sure how to troubleshoot any further
[23:44] <Beldar> Ivanov, use this app it works nicely and will show the first gui if needed, and check the sum of the iso as well. http://liveusb.info/dotclear/
[23:44] <theinterrobanger> running ubuntu server 13.03
[23:45] <theinterrobanger> oops .04
[23:45] <Beldar> Ivanov, I assume you can load it to debian
[23:46] <Ivanov> Beldar, im on my debian/steamos here to be on IRC so yes
[23:46] <Ivanov> though im not surew hat this site says, will have to translate
[23:47] <Beldar> Ivanov, Generally I use a gui usb loader, however ubuntu can be dd'd
[23:50] <Beldar> Ivanov, The site will show it in many languages so turn off any flash block or add remove to get that option.
[23:51] <Beldar> addblock*
[23:51] <Ivanov> i dont have any
[23:51] <Ivanov> this is a few-hour-old install
[23:52] <Ivanov> but i figured google translate out already
[23:52] <onetinsoldier> join #ubuntuoff-topic
[23:52] <Beldar> onetinsoldier, /join
[23:52] <onetinsoldier> oops
[23:52] <onetinsoldier> yeah, i know
[23:52] <Beldar> hehe
[23:52] <onetinsoldier> thanks
[23:52] <onetinsoldier> hehe
[23:53] <Ivanov> though i cant seem to find a download still
[23:54] <Beldar> Ivanov, it is on a second page, here is another link. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/
[23:54] <Ivanov> thanks
[23:55] <theinterrobanger> actually, it's definitely an lvm issue ... pvdisplay gives me this:
[23:55] <theinterrobanger> read failed after 0 of 4096 at<PHONE_NUMBER>232: Input/output error
[23:58] <adamjames> glitsj16: thats where i started and searched around from there. thanks for the response.
[23:58] <glitsj16> adamjames: no biggie, does that mean it still doesn't work ?
[23:58] <adamjames> glitsj16: no, still doesnt work

[09:14] <faekjarz> Do i need to run "do-release-upgrade -d" in order to upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04 LTS, now? (i kinda don't want to install a development release)
[09:20] <lotuspsychje> !ltsupgrade | faekjarz
[09:22] <faekjarz> thanks, lotuspsychje
[09:23] <faekjarz> is there an actual schedule that could tell me when the .1 release is due? the release cycle page doesn't help
[09:23] <lotuspsychje> august probably faekjarz
[09:24] <faekjarz> hmm, k thx
[09:24] <lotuspsychje> and for production servers, that would be reccomended to await .1
[09:27] <faekjarz> aye! it's my home server and i have a fresh clonezilla backup from an hour ago - i shall boldly go... ;)
[09:27] <lotuspsychje> see also the releasenotes before you go faekjarz
[09:27] <lotuspsychje> !jammy
[10:54] <technohead> Hi, anyone has setup Bind with chroot jail? Any decent guide which you can recommend me?
[11:36] <odc> nope, I deployed BIND in docker. Easier than a chroot!
[12:18] <sdeziel> technohead: I put bind9 in a LXD container and add the following systemd hardening snippet to it: https://termbin.com/eqoq
[12:19] <sdeziel> technohead: so no chroot but you can achieve something similar with systemd mount features (*Path=)
[13:17] <teward> sdeziel: the only way to fix d-r-u a-la #1977667 is to fix the underlying scripts so they don't exit in an error case.  Which is impossible with the postinst and a systemd call
[13:17] <teward> the error chain you have is, from inner to outer:
[13:18] <sdeziel> teward: wait
[13:18] <teward> dpkg error code ---> apt error code ---> d-r-u error code
[13:18] <sdeziel> teward: I cannot even get d-r-u to abort the upgrade :)
[13:18] <teward> sdeziel: it's been well known for eons that you can't 'abort' an upgrade mid-install mid-configuration
[13:18] <teward> hence the "backup your stuff first" problem
[13:18] <teward> sdeziel: my point is
[13:18] <sdeziel> teward: d-r-u did the right thing by continuing (at least in my reproducing attempt)
[13:18] <teward> sdeziel: i think you misunderstand the call chain
[13:19] <teward> you ARE aware that the configure steps happen *after* all the package installs/updates/etc. happen right?
[13:19] <sdeziel> yep
[13:19] <teward> and you ARE aware that when dpkg/apt fails to configure a package *it* in turn returns an error code, independent of d-r-u yes?
[13:20] <teward> unless you are telling d-r-u to ignore error cases where dpkg/apt fails to install/configure which all happen at one command call, I don't see a way for d-r-u to 'ignore' the config failure
[13:20] <sdeziel> this is the part that I'm not 100% now because in my reproducing steps, nginx-light shows as "ii" in `dpkg -l` despite the error I introduced
[13:20] <teward> because, IMO, if a package fails to configure on upgrade, that's a problem.
[13:20] <teward> sdeziel: i'm past the nginx issue
[13:20] <teward> sdeziel: as we already discussed in bug it's not an NGINX issue
[13:21] <sdeziel> teward: yeah, we all know this has nothing to do with NGINX
[13:21] <teward> the underlying issue needs its own d-r-u bug IMO
[13:21] <teward> not continuing to compound on the nginx bug :P
[13:21] <teward> my point still stands regardless
[13:21] <teward> let's say this was Apache
[13:21] <teward> or BIND
[13:21] <teward> or $insert_server_package_here
[13:21] <teward> similar config failures, same trigger case problem with a d-r-u failure
[13:22] <teward> what OP discovered and you're seeing is an inherent apt/dpkg/subprocess forking error code handling issue
[13:22] <sdeziel> teward: I took the liberty to try an reproduce the problem without changing the bug assignment ... maybe I should have moved it first, sorry. Even then, I didn't find a problem with d-r-u so AFAIK, there is no bug at all
[13:22] <teward> sdeziel: i think the red herring error case is the problem
[13:22] <teward> at the same time i don't see a way to "bypass" that is my thing
[13:22] <teward> so ultimately I don't see this as a bug and the fact we're still digging is just spamming things :P
[13:22] <teward> *yawns* sorry i woke up grumpy
[13:22] <teward> still recovering from the COVID
[13:25] <sdeziel> teward: should the "affects nginx" link be dropped from that bug?
[13:26] <teward> i believe so, yes, as it's an "invalid" against NGINX.
[13:26] <teward> the bug needs a retitle though too
[13:26] <teward> to not confuse people
[13:26] <teward> again, apologies if i seem hostile today, i'm just grumpy from the COVID.  most of the symptoms are gone, but i'm still sleeeeepy heh
[13:28] <teward> (unrelated: COVID sucks, so don't get it if you can avoid it)
[13:33] <sdeziel> teward: I'll let the reporter deal with the retitle as this one seems to be coming from d-r-u automatic bug report or something
[13:33] <teward> sdeziel: it's not a d-r-u reported bug
[13:33] <teward> d-r-u is letting apt report the bug
[13:34] <teward> the bug report is the apt "install failed" bug
[13:34] <teward> so this needs a LOT more love than just OP here
[13:34] <teward> again, this is how you and I understand the call chain but $AVERAGE_JOE won't
[13:36] <sdeziel> well, to be honest, I just noticed "The upgrade has aborted" followed by "A recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a)" ;)
[14:44] <ahasenack> kanashiro: do you have that corosync bug # at hand?
[14:44] <ahasenack> i can't find it
[14:45] <kanashiro> ahasenack, let me check
[14:46] <ahasenack> it's not even in https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html, I thought it would be there
[14:47] <kanashiro> it was marked as server-todo I think
[14:48] <ahasenack> got it
