[19:32] <Bashing-om> socialevil: Nother thought - have you been sudo'n where you should not have and now root owns the access to your desktop ? What shows ' ls -al .ICEauthority .Xauthority ' ?
[19:32] <sysadmin> hello... any hint on a program to recover accidently removed files?
[19:32] <goose1> That image is over like 5 miuntes
[19:32] <goose1> sysadmin: how did you remove them?
[19:34] <Bashing-om> goose1: What is this horst3180 source ?
[19:35] <goose1> Bashing-om: what?
[19:35] <goose1> Oh in the repos, Its for the arc theme
[19:36] <goose1> But its been working fine after I installed that, just decided to take FOREVER today and cant figure out why
[19:37] <Bashing-om> goose1: In your image paste is that source link . I have never seen the like, If ya want to verify that it is for ubunty, please paste the textual terminal output of ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' giving me the ability to copy/paste from the files .
[19:38] <goose1> Bashing-om: ok 1 sec
[19:39] <goose1> THe horst source is just for a theme, didnt cause issues before but here is the update before I killed ithttp://pastebin.com/9cTLK1M8
[19:39] <Bashing-om> goose1: :) pretty easy to check most sources if we can copy and paste exactly .
[19:40] <jak2000> hi all
[19:40] <jak2000> how to check if my system isubuntu or debian?
[19:40] <goose1> Here is upgrade http://pastebin.com/fDFYQrAm
[19:40] <tomreyn> jak2000: lsb_release -sd
[19:41] <egelor> jak2000: uname -a
[19:41] <sysadmin> goose1: deleted from HDD drive, where main drive is SSD. So I gess shift + delete
[19:42] <k1l_> goose1: did you run sudo apt update first?
[19:42] <sysadmin> I'm trying to use photorec
[19:42] <goose1> k1l_: yeah
[19:42] <goose1> my issue is update is taking FOREVER when its usually pretty much instant
[19:42] <Bashing-om> goose1: So far looks perfectly legit :) To this time I see no issue . Let them run ( update upgrade) to completion and see then what the package manager relates ?
[19:43] <goose1> I changed DL location, sped it up a bit now but it gets to Get:78 and just hangs there
[19:43] <Chatter_-1> this network is a bait/entrapment/sting platform doing law enforcement or vigilante work. (ETHICALLY CORRUPT)
[19:43] <k1l_> goose1: where exactly does it hang?
[19:43] <goose1> Okay it finished, not sure why it took so long
[19:43] <goose1> Here is finished paste
[19:44] <goose1> http://pastebin.com/ehHnzt5q
[19:44] <goose1> ignore the apt update in the middle, terminal copied weird when resizing
[19:44] <jak2000> ok ts ubuntu
[19:44] <Bashing-om> goose1: Again so far so good " 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded." Package manager not showing a issue here .
[19:44] <jak2000> how to check wich mta is installed on my box?
[19:45] <goose1> Yeah I know. Just weird how long it took compared to usual
[19:45] <k1l_> goose1: was it hanging on that mirror or on the opensuse repo?
[19:45] <nirux> Hey guys. Can someone help me with an Ubuntu 16.10 issue i have?
[19:46] <goose1> At first the opensuse repo. Then changed mirror to duke.edu, then it hung for a long time near the end at Get:74 and Get:78
[19:46] <goose1> nirux: whats up
[19:46] <goose1> what is issue
[19:47] <jak2000> egelor any advice?
[19:47] <dave0x6d> So I've set a device in overlayroot.conf, but it doesn't seem to do anything.
[19:47] <dave0x6d> Where would the error/status messages be logged for this? Not seeing it in dmesg.
[19:47] <nirux> I came from Arch, and I wanted to try Unity, but the issue is after about 10 minutes the whole computer freezes. It happens instantly when watching a video in fullscreen or on YouTube.
[19:47] <nirux> I can load a TTY however.
[19:48] <tomreyn> jak2000: sudo lsof -i :25
[19:48] <nirux> I've not been able to figure it out.
[19:49] <Bashing-om> nirux: What about memory management . What does ' free -m ' show when running a video ?
[19:50] <tomreyn> jak2000: alternatively: sudo netstat -pan --inet | grep ':25[[:blank:]]'
[19:51] <dave0x6d> I don't see any failed overlay mounts in dmesg.
[19:52] <dave0x6d> overlayroot=device:dev=/dev/group-01/volume-01:timeout=10
[19:52] <dave0x6d> Is that not the way you're supposed to create a overlayroot?
[19:52] <lasersaber> why is it not breaking lines? http://paste.ubuntu.com/23723724/
[19:53] <lasersaber> just goes right accross
[19:53] <lasersaber> is it just my browser or its the server?
[19:53] <OerHeks> lasersaber, it is a feature, why would paste break lines?
[19:53] <jak2000> tomreynm: https://paste.debian.net/905932/
[19:54] <dave0x6d> overlayroot=device:dev=/dev/group-01/volume-01:timeout=10,fstype=ext4,mkfs=1
[19:54] <dave0x6d> trying that now
[19:55] <lasersaber> OerHeks, before it use to break line for better viewing
[19:55] <OerHeks> lasersaber, nope, this has been for years iirc
[19:56] <lasersaber> hmm
[19:57] <nirux> Bashing-om: sorry i left. I tried to watch a youtube video and it completely locked up.
[19:57] <tomreyn> jak2000: "master" is usually a process which belongs to the "postfix" MTA. "ps ef 1484 2>&1 | pastebinit" to verify
[19:57] <lasersaber> is there another site i can use with terminal for outputs tht i can install?
[19:57] <jak2013> but wich is it? postfix and or sendmail?
[19:58] <lasersaber> with better text format
[19:58] <tomreyn> !pastebinit | lasersaber
[19:59] <Bashing-om> nirux: All I can at this point to consider is memory management ' free -m ' shows what before and after starting a video ? as a place to start .
[19:59] <tomreyn> jak2013: i just answered this question, didn't i? please re-read my previous reply.
[19:59] <kjhmedia> cbwolf2020
[19:59] <lasersaber> i have it installed but the output on the site has no line breaks
[20:00] <nirux> Bashing-om: anyway to export a ran command as a .txt or some sort? I could just upload that.
[20:00] <kjhmedia> I'm a Newbie. How do I find another Hexchatter?
[20:00] <nirux> I did find an ubuntu forum post on the exact same issue i have.
[20:00] <nirux> But no solution was posted.
[20:00] <jak2013> tomreyn yes i see, and typed the command see please: https://paste.debian.net/905932/
[20:01] <tomreyn> jak2000: i already saw this paste. and responded with: <tomreyn> jak2000: "master" is usually a process which belongs to the "postfix" MTA. "ps ef 1484 2>&1 | pastebinit" to verify
[20:02] <jak2000> ok sorry not see i am disconnected
[20:02] <jak2000> checking
[20:02] <Bashing-om> nirux: ' free -m | nc termbin.com 9999 ' will do to show us those outputs .
[20:02] <nirux> Okay. I'll do a reconnect if it freezes while trying full screen. Hold on.
[20:03] <NOVAtechies> hello all
[20:03] <Bashing-om> nirux: Compare before and after .

[20:05] <NOVAtechies> egelor: thanks very much.  is it on github?
[20:05] <lasersaber> inxi -Fxxxc0
[20:05] <lasersaber> inxi -Fxxxc0 | pastebinit
[20:06] <egelor> NOVAtechies: sudo apt-get install thinkfan
[20:06] <NOVAtechies> oh i didn't realise it had a repo sounds good
[20:07] <NOVAtechies> well damn that was easy

[20:09] <generic> guys*
[20:09] <j41> Hello generic
[20:10] <lasersaber> this fixed my system: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
[20:10] <Confused> Can someone help? I deleted lubuntu and now I'm stuck in grub rescue
[20:10] <mynameisJulian> Confused: Reinstall it.
[20:11] <Confused> My CD keeps getting stuck in a loop
[20:11] <Confused> Flashing dash icon
[20:11] <Confused> Then black
[20:11] <Confused> Then more flashing
[20:11] <jak2000> tomreyn
[20:11] <jak2000> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23723873/
[20:11] <j41> Confused: Are you booting from cd?
[20:11] <lasersaber> maybe its a bad cd
[20:11] <Confused> Yes
[20:12] <j41> Confused: Have you used the CD before?
[20:12] <Confused> Yeah
[20:13] <goose1> Id just recreate it honestly
[20:13] <j41> ^
[20:13] <Confused> OK its at the dots loading screen right now
[20:13] <goose1> TIL people still use CDs
[20:13] <j41> Confused: Make a new one, or use a USB
[20:13] <nirux> bashing-om: I got them. Compared. Nothing big to cause a lock up however. Here i'll link them for you.
[20:13] <Bashing-om> socialevil: Well . ubuntu is top of the line and consumes lots of resources. Have you got the memory installed to handle it ?
[20:13] <nirux> this is free -m without anything open other than hexchat: http://termbin.com/utcx
[20:13] <Confused> Hold on Im trying it with a diff option
[20:13] <socialevil> Bashing-om i gave 16gb ram
[20:14] <nirux> this is free -m while watching a video non fullscreen: http://termbin.com/m908
[20:14] <goose1> Whats a resource to get better at using the commands line?
[20:14] <goose1> Good resource*
[20:14] <nirux> And i ran this when it locked up on fullscreen : http://termbin.com/4ly7
[20:15] <Confused> -sigh- I just wanted to get back into windows
[20:15] <j41> goose1: One way to find out what commands do is to read the manual, for example: man ls
[20:15] <goose1> Confused: can you not get back into windows?
[20:15] <goose1> j41: thanks, I know man pages, but I think I foune some stuff
[20:15] <Bashing-om> nirux: Agreed is not a memory management issue . Sorry to say I do not know - off the top of my head - what the cause is .
[20:15] <Confused> No it just leaves me at grub rescue
[20:16] <socialevil> Bashing-om when i go to software and updates->additional drivers i see that i am using x.org x server nouveau diaplay driver instead of my nvidia 367.57 proprietary testet ... But last time i changed that i went to this login loop
[20:16] <Confused> Lubuntu cd loaded when I chose straight to install
[20:16] <goose1> Have you updated grub to try to refind the windows boot manager?
[20:16] <j41> Confused: Do you want to reinstall Lubuntu?
[20:16] <Confused> No I only got it in the first place to make my PC faster but its the same as windows
[20:17] <Confused> I just want windows
[20:17] <j41> Confused: Do you have a Windows disc?
[20:17] <Confused> No
[20:17] <j41> Confused: Do you have another computer?
[20:17] <egelor> haha
[20:17] <Confused> If I have to reinstall lubuntu its ok
[20:17] <Confused> Lol no
[20:17] <Confused> I'm on my phone
[20:17] <k1l_> Confused: this channel cant help you on installing windows. better ask ##windows if you need help on that
[20:18] <Confused> If I reinstall lubuntu will I get grub back
[20:18] <goose1> Yeah
[20:18] <goose1> Or you can just update grub
[20:18] <lasersaber> winblows*
[20:18] <goose1> Do you have windows currently installed on the machine?
[20:18] <Bashing-om> socialevil: If ya had 367 installed from our repo ( not OEM ! ) I can not imagine why nouveau would now be loaded . We can look and see what X thinks ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit ' .
[20:18] <k1l_> Confused: is only ubuntu installed?
[20:18] <goose1> ^
[20:18] <OerHeks> boot your windows dvd and choose repair
[20:18] <Confused> I do but it's stuck in grub rescue
[20:18] <Confused> I can't use it
[20:18] <nirux> Bashing-om: No worries man. Thanks for trying : ) I'll see what i can do on it. Maybe it's just the DE. I guess no fullscreen videos for me.
[20:19] <Confused> Sigh I don't have a windows cd
[20:19] <JohnDoe2> Hey guys, got a quick question: I set up a proxy, system-wide on 16.04 and logged off, and back on. If I curl -v from the command line, the proxy gets the request and I have a breakpoint set on the proxy so I can edit the request if need be. If however I curl the same URL via php, the proxy displays the breakpoint, but php goes on and connects anyway before I get a chance to do anything to that request. Essentially, php is bypassing the proxy. Why would
[20:19] <JohnDoe2>  that not obey the system wide setting?
[20:19] <Confused> I just said
[20:19] <goose1> Confused: http://askubuntu.com/questions/435160/cant-boot-windows-7-after-installing-ubuntu
[20:19] <k1l_> Confused: you will need a windows cd or usb to repair/reinstall the windows bootloader
[20:19] <stan_man_can> right now I have 2 drives, ones 250GB ones 120GB. the 250GB has my /home and my 120GB has /
[20:19] <goose1> Yeah what k1l_ said
[20:19] <j41> Confused: Otherwise, reinstall Lubuntu and you'll have GRUB back
[20:19] <Confused> smh I'll just reinstall lubuntu
[20:19] <stan_man_can> how can I merge them so everything is on the 250GB and the 120GB is empty?
[20:20] <goose1> Confused: you can recreate a windows usb by using this link https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10ISO
[20:20] <Confused> I'll figure out a way to delete it after I get windows back
[20:20] <goose1> Confused: you can delete it using disk manager in windows
[20:20] <j41> Confused: You can repair the bootloader from within windows
[20:20] <Bashing-om> nirux: A thought only . what results when operating from the guest account ? Maybe isolate this to a config issue in "your" account ?
[20:20] <Confused> I can't access windows
[20:21] <socialevil> Bashing-om paste.ubuntu.com/23723921
[20:21] <goose1> Confused: check the askubuntu link i posted above
[20:21] <j41> Confused: Once you can boot into Windows after reinstalling Lubuntu (and therefore grub)
[20:21] <k1l_> Confused: if you deleted lubuntu, there is no data that grub finds. that is the issue.
[20:21] <j41> Confused: The installer should give you the option to 'detect' Windows
[20:21] <k1l_> Confused: so either get a windows cd/usb and install the windows bootloader or reinstall the ubuntu and use grub for dualboot again
[20:21] <Bashing-om> socialevil: Reading; I will be a while .
[20:22] <goose1> Yeah either recreating a windows install device or reinstalling ubuntu are really your only options right now
[20:22] <socialevil> Ik
[20:22] <socialevil> Ok*
[20:22] <goose1> If you just want windows, recreate it using the media creation tool MS provides (need windows machine or VM to run it) and then reinstall
[20:22] <Mr-Frog> I'm having a printer issue. When I connect to a print server via the Printers Server>Connect menu, it works fine for a little while but after a few minutes my entry is deleted.
[20:22] <nirux> Bashing-om: Haven't tried it, honestly. Let me give it a try. Be right back.
[20:23] <lasersaber> how about installing grub-customizer ? that should help
[20:23] <k1l_> lasersaber: no
[20:23] <Bashing-om> socialevil: "  nomodeset quiet splash vt.handoff=7 " you have set nomodeset as a boot parameter, with that set will not load the proprietary driver .
[20:23] <k1l_> lasersaber: there is nothing where the grub data is put. that is why he only gets the grub rescue
[20:23] <lasersaber> ahh ok

[20:26] <Bashing-om> socialevil: check in /etc/default/grub that nomodeset is not set as a permament boot parameter .
[20:26] <goose1> partition
[20:26] <MonkeyDust> Confused  use gparted
[20:26] <goose1> ^
[20:26] <nirux> Bashing-om: It's different under a Guest session. It'll freeze only the video while the Unity desktop and the app still functions fine.
[20:26] <goose1> gparted is super easy to use
[20:26] <Confused> I can't get into live, I can only do direct install
[20:26] <k1l_> Confused: why cant you go into live? that doesnt make sense
[20:27] <goose1> Yeah you should have the option
[20:27] <stan_man_can> if I copy /home to /new-home, boot from live CD and rename /new-home to /home, and then delete the mount line from /etc/fstab ?
[20:27] <ioria> Confused,  your specs ? cpu, ram, video card

[20:33] <stan_man_can> if my / and /home are on different physical drives, how can I merge them to both be on the /home drive?
[20:33] <jak2000> delete each file?
[20:33] <bekks> jak2000: "find . -type f -exec echo {} \;"
[20:33] <ioria> Confused laptop, you delete also grub, then
[20:33] <mynameisJulian> Confused: Destroy the partition with GParted, worked for me a while ago.
[20:33] <generic> okay just make boothable usb flash drive put LInux or any op system on it and reistall it
[20:33] <k1l_> stan_man_can: resize partitions, copy data or partition, change fstab
[20:33] <Confused> HOLD UP
[20:33] <goose1> Confused: You should be able to get into windows through your boot manager (F11, del, or something at startup)
[20:34] <Confused> LIVE LOADED
[20:34] <ioria> horrah
[20:34] <Confused> Tell me what I need to do
[20:34] <k1l_> Confused: you so install lubuntu again and have a working grub with that.
[20:34] <jak2000> beeks same :(
[20:35] <bekks> jak2000: Then you arent patient enough.
[20:35] <lasersaber> Confused, connect to the internet
[20:35] <goose1> Confused: be sure NOT to install over the windows partition
[20:35] <ioria> Confused never back down
[20:35] <bekks> jak2000: Running find on 150 files in a single directory WILL take its time.
[20:35] <stan_man_can> k1l_, do they have to be separate partitions?
[20:35] <goose1> Then you'll have grub, and you SHOULD be able to get into windows
[20:35] <Confused> Gparted is loading
[20:35] <Confused> Its up
[20:35] <Bashing-om> socialevil: Yeah make a backup of the file prior to editing is SOP ; and change - GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset" - to - GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" - ( remove nomodeset _ save the file and to propagate the change to the system now run ' sudo update-grub ' . Reboot to see the effect .
[20:35] <goose1> Do you see the windows partition there?
[20:35] <ioria> Confused so dual boot ?
[20:35] <k1l_> stan_man_can: no. you can have only one / partition which includes your home
[20:36] <Confused> I see 2
[20:36] <Confused> NTFS and unallocated
[20:36] <stan_man_can> k1l_, so if I want everything on the drive that /home is currently on...
[20:36] <goose1> Windows should have more than one right?
[20:36] <socialevil> Bashing-om will do.
[20:36] <k1l_> Confused: run a terminal with "sudo fdisk -l | nc termbin.com 9999" and show the url here
[20:36] <goose1> there should be a recovery, and boot partition along side the large data one
[20:36] <Confused> Ok
[20:36] <ioria> Confused  do that
[20:36] <stan_man_can> k1l_, I would what, move all of /home to / and then move all of / to the new drive?
[20:36] <goose1> Confused: FORMAT the UNALLOCATED one to ext4
[20:37] <goose1> install ubuntu onto the new EXT4 part.
[20:37] <ioria> maybe he needs swap
[20:37] <Bashing-om> socialevil: K . could be that after the reboot all will be peachy keen fine :)
[20:37] <goose1> Then you'll have both, grub SHOULD load, and give option for windows
[20:37] <Confused> How do I type the line after -l
[20:37] <kjhmedia> looking for cbwolf2020
[20:37] <lasersaber> Confused, format all partitions except the ntfs partitions
[20:37] <goose1> ioria: yeah the installation will create home, data, and swap on its own. You need it to be ext4 first though
[20:37] <k1l_> stan_man_can: you can put everything in the /home partition
[20:38] <ioria> i see
[20:38] <goose1> Confused: what are you trying to type?
[20:38] <Confused> The unallocated one is only 2mb
[20:38] <ioria> no good
[20:38] <goose1> Confused: how big is NTFS?
[20:38] <Confused> The thing about fdisk above
[20:38] <k1l_> kjhmedia: that user is not in here.
[20:38] <Confused> 111.79 gb
[20:38] <goose1> Okay, you can resize it under gparted and isntall ubuntu on new partition
[20:39] <stan_man_can> k1l_, how do I move stuff to a specific drive?
[20:39] <ioria> Confused   sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999   and give us the url you got
[20:39] <goose1> OR you can download a windows iso, create it in linux live, and reinstall windows
[20:39] <Confused> How do I type the line between fdisk and term

[20:39] <k1l_> stan_man_can: you copy only mounted data.
[20:40] <stan_man_can> k1l_, but like
[20:40] <goose1> stan_man_can: like copy fileA from driveA to DriveB?
[20:40] <k1l_> generic: this channels focus is support. better ask in the offtopic channel
[20:40] <stan_man_can> how do i specificy the drive as the destination?
[20:40] <socialevil> Bashing-om now it works fine but my vents went lout :)) its a new laptop so its actually the first time i hear them.. But i cannot think its somehow related
[20:40] <stan_man_can> goose1, yeah i guess so
[20:40] <Confused> It types >
[20:40] <Confused> Not the line
[20:40] <generic> Opps, sorry guys
[20:40] <stan_man_can> goose1, how do I copy / to drive B
[20:40] <goose1> cp /path/to/file.file /path/to/dest
[20:40] <stan_man_can> since drive B currently has /home
[20:40] <ioria> Confused   sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[20:40] <k1l_> stan_man_can: you specifiy the target folder. which is the mountpoint
[20:41] <k1l_> stan_man_can: you should do this from a live cd anyway
[20:41] <goose1> stan_man_can: http://www.computerhope.com/unix/ucp.htm

[20:41] <goose1> cp origfile newfile

[20:42] <socialevil> Bashing-om sorry. Yes. Thats exaclty wat i ment

[20:45] <lasersaber> Confused, https://appear.in/confused
[20:45] <ioria> bladon't think so, works here
[20:46] <tomreyn> jak2000: by the time you produced the 'ps' output, the mails erver was no longer running, or had been restarted
[20:46] <tomreyn> either that or you mistyped the command

[20:47] <ioria> Confused   copy and paste on paste.ubuntu.com
[20:47] <socialevil> Bashing-om paste.ubuntu.com/23724050 .. I dont know what the second thing means and Asus gl752v laptop brand new.. 3 days old i dont think its time foelr cleaning
[20:48] <pseudonymous> can I somehow get a ubuntu install which uses disk encryption (preferably like the regular lvm2/luks setup) but *without* selecting the format entire disk option ?
[20:48] <Mr-Frog> I have an issue with printing. I can add a cups server via the printer settings GUI, but when I exit and return, the server changes back to /var/run/cups/cups.sock
[20:48] <blami> goose1: I mean anything for linux there :) I am playing day of the tentacle remake right now :) And Duskers was good
[20:49] <goose1> yeah im stuck on rimworld atm, amazing game
[20:49] <goose1> What is this pastebinit thing people keep suggesting?
[20:49] <goose1> Does it just auto pastebin from cmd?
[20:49] <k1l_> !pastebinit
[20:49] <EriC^^> goose1: yeah
[20:49] <goose1> Ah cool
[20:49] <goose1> Thanks
[20:50] <thomedy> is there a good room for ubuntu based video editing
[20:51] <MonkeyDust> thomedy  try #ubuntustudio
[20:51] <confusedtwo> the guy from appear.in left
[20:51] <EriC^^> thomedy: #ubuntu-studio possibly
[20:51] <k1l_> thomedy: the #ubuntustudio guys migth now
[20:51] <stan_man_can> k1l_, so i'm kinda screwed?
[20:51] <k1l_> *know
[20:51] <goose1> WTF csgo
[20:51] <stan_man_can> k1l_, i just wanted to dual boot windows since i need to start doing some video editing and was trying to avoid buying another drive
[20:52] <k1l_> confusedtwo: instead of using such tools that doesnt really help now, you coudl provide tha facts requested in a pastebin.
[20:52] <confusedtwo> i figured out how to type |
[20:52] <confusedtwo> my keyboard layout is backwards on this
[20:52] <confusedtwo> im on pc now
[20:53] <confusedtwo> what should i type in term
[20:53] <k1l_> stan_man_can: the encryption adds another layer which makes it more complicated.
[20:53] <ioria> Confused    sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[20:53] <lasersaber> confusedtwo, get the appear.in app for your phone
[20:53] <Generic> a
[20:53] <egelor> exit
[20:53] <confusedtwo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23724077/
[20:53] <k1l_> lasersaber: that is not helping. he could just show the facts on pastebinit which is faster and easier
[20:54] <lasersaber> or that
[20:54] <ioria> confusedtwo, you have only a big windows partition
[20:54] <confusedtwo> yeah i want to make a tiny partition for this
[20:54] <k1l_> confusedtwo: did you have wubi install inside windows?
[20:54] <confusedtwo> so i can get back to windows
[20:55] <confusedtwo> no i installed it via disk
[20:55] <k1l_> confusedtwo: where was your lubuntu installed? there is only one big windows partition
[20:55] <Bashing-om> socialevil: Hybrid graphics . I do think proprietary driver handles it the better . Want to see?....  then ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' . Reboot again to see the effect .
[20:55] <confusedtwo> im not sure i just clicked dual boot option
[20:55] <socialevil> Bashing-om will do
[20:55] <ioria> confusedtwo, mmmm
[20:55] <pseudonymous> No one uses encryption on a single partition =
[20:56] <pseudonymous> ?*
[20:56] <ioria> confusedtwo, i'd try to take off a 30 gigas from  i
[20:56] <ioria> *t
[20:57] <k1l_> confusedtwo: so you changed the partitions after you deleted the lubuntu install?
[20:57] <confusedtwo> i installed lubuntu via disk by selecting dual boot option
[20:57] <k1l_> confusedtwo: because that doesnt make sense at all, what you tell us and what the facts show us
[20:57] <confusedtwo> i installed it because my pc is old and i wanted it to work better
[20:57] <confusedtwo> but its same as windows, and i like windows better
[20:58] <confusedtwo> so i deleted lubuntu partition in disk management in windows
[20:58] <ioria> confusedtwo, i5 core and 4 giga ram it's not 'bad'
[20:58] <ealawoe__> ealawoe
[20:58] <confusedtwo> then when i reboot i get the grub rescue
[20:59] <ioria> confusedtwo, you have win backups ?
[20:59] <confusedtwo> only disk i have is lubuntu
[21:00] <ioria> confusedtwo, no, i mean... anything of value on win partition ?
[21:00] <confusedtwo> im trying boot-repair suggested earlier
[21:00] <ioria> boot-repair without *buntu ?
[21:00] <k1l_> confusedtwo: to get grub working again you would need a install which needs repartitioning again. so its way more straight forward if you just get a windows cd/usb and repair the windows bootloader
[21:01] <ioria> boot-repair maybe the windows rescue disk :þ
[21:01] <confusedtwo> it says to do it in live
[21:02] <ioria> confusedtwo, you don't have *buntu anymore
[21:02] <confusedtwo> i deleted it
[21:02] <k1l_> and repartitionated the free disk space to the windows parititon.
[21:03] <confusedtwo> i was trying to find an option to make new partition in gparted
[21:03] <ioria> confusedtwo, why don't you take space for lubuntu and install it ?
[21:03] <k1l_> confusedtwo: as i said: either do some manual repartitioning again, then install ubuntu. or get a windows cd
[21:03] <confusedtwo> but cant find 1
[21:03] <confusedtwo> thats reason ^
[21:03] <ioria> confusedtwo, try 'Somethin else'
[21:03] <confusedtwo> thats where i was at before and the options wouldnt let me
[21:04] <Ben64> but if you don't actually want ubuntu, why not go over to ##windows and ask them about options?
[21:04] <k1l_> confusedtwo: use gparted, shrink the windows, make new partition for ubuntu, start installer.
[21:05] <confusedtwo> do i use resize option?
[21:06] <k1l_> yes
[21:06] <confusedtwo> i got boot repair up
[21:06] <confusedtwo> should i use that, or use gparted
[21:06] <k1l_> confusedtwo: stop
[21:06] <confusedtwo> lmao
[21:06] <k1l_> who said you should use boot repair? that is no helping at all since i explained you 3 times now grub cant work if there is no partition with the data that grub needs
[21:06] <confusedtwo> some people earlier
[21:07] <confusedtwo> i was on my phone before
[21:07] <confusedtwo> chat was hard to see
[21:07] <confusedtwo> do i use resize option on gparted?
[21:07] <EriC^^> yes
[21:07] <k1l_> i guess you did not explain your setup properly so people didnt know you only have a windows install and not other partition.
[21:07] <stan_man_can> what does "Disk is OK, one failing attribute is failing" mean?
[21:07] <confusedtwo> i was having trouble with commands
[21:07] <stan_man_can> when checking the Assessment of a disk in Disks
[21:08] <confusedtwo> how much spaces does lubuntu need? about 7gbs?
[21:08] <EriC^^> stan_man_can: try smartctl -a /dev/sdX
[21:08] <EriC^^> confusedtwo: that'll barely cover the os
[21:08] <confusedtwo> should i do 10
[21:08] <stan_man_can> EriC^^, smartctl doesn't exist
[21:09] <stan_man_can> has no installation candidate
[21:09] <EriC^^> more like 20 confusedtwo
[21:09] <Nytram> You'll need at least 10gb just for /
[21:09] <EriC^^> stan_man_can: sudo apt-get install smartmontools
[21:10] <stan_man_can> EriC^^, https://gist.github.com/anonymous/1954c8668085839de0ceefdf94ff432c
[21:10] <stan_man_can> is that because it's mounted externally?
[21:11] <EriC^^> stan_man_can: no, it doesn't have smart capabilities
[21:11] <socialevil> Bashing-om you my sir are a genius :))
[21:11] <confusedtwo> idk how to use resize
[21:11] <k1l_> stan_man_can: is this conncted per usb or something?
[21:11] <goose1> confusedtwo: allocate like 40Gb, then "install alongside windows" when you install, it will create all other partitions for you
[21:11] <socialevil> Cooling fans are asleep again :)))
[21:11] <stan_man_can> k1l_, ye
[21:11] <stan_man_can> yes
[21:11] <confusedtwo> it wont take the numbers im putting into it
[21:12] <k1l_> stan_man_can: then the usb connector for the disk doesnt support smartmontools
[21:13]  * linux_user says: Hello all! I am curious to get some information about scid and "scid vs pc" for Ubuntu. I see "scid" in the repos but am not sure which one it is or how to get the "scid vs pc" from a prebuilt repo if even available? What say anyone?
[21:13] <goose1> So I got this Rpi ive had for awhile
[21:13] <goose1> whats a cool project i can use
[21:14] <Ben64> goose1: ask in #raspberrypi
[21:14] <goose1> thx
[21:14] <k1l_> !info scid
[21:15] <k1l_> linux_user: for questions about that i would suggest you ask the skid project directly
[21:15] <Eskatrem> Hi, I lost my .xinitrc file by messing up and not navigation between workspaces doesnt work (and also, I dont have an image background)
[21:16] <mate_> hola
[21:16] <Eskatrem> so I am trying to start unity but dont know how to do it
[21:16] <linux_user> k1l_, : I'll be sure and do that, its definitely something I never thought of. But, for now, I am going to see who that is here knows about it too. I think that is also an excellent idea.
[21:16] <cipher6> exit
[21:16] <Bashing-om> socialevil: No Sir, not me - that appillalion applies to those others - I just been around a bit :)
[21:20] <pseudonymous> In a bit of a jam and would *really* appreciate some help. Does *anyone* know of a guide/set of steps to setup an encrypted (preferably lvm2+luks) partition for a ubuntu install ? I can't/won't format my entire disk, but I need the encryption for work reasons.
[21:22] <lasersaber> did confuse solve his issue?
[21:23] <lasersaber> pseudonymous, i think the drive needs to be formatted for that
[21:24] <confusedtwo> http://imgur.com/a/RnGqB can someone explain to me what to do with this
[21:24] <lasersaber> not 100% sure
[21:24] <thomedy> can i write ios software on ubuntu
[21:24] <thomedy> swift, objective-c
[21:24] <linux_user> are there any chess players here at all that us Ubuntu for that?
[21:24] <thomedy> i can write it but im writing a multiplatform thing
[21:25] <Ben64> thomedy: you can write anything, you need ios to compile it or have it run or something, i'm not sure of the specifics
[21:25] <thomedy> i have an iphone and i need to write an iphone, ipad app
[21:25] <thomedy> but i usually run ubuntu
[21:25] <pseudonymous> thomedy: not really. There's an objective-C compiler of some sort, but IOS apps rely on all apple's proprietary crap software which they aren't really happy to share (sorry, a bit prissy because of this damned mac acting up)
[21:25] <thomedy> i got the iphone to write my apps
[21:25] <linux_user> In general you really need an Apple system to write iOS
[21:26] <j41> thomedy: I was under the impression that you needed a Mac
[21:26] <linux_user> the other answers are generally right but not what you probably really mean, no, the Apple Development evniroment is not on Linux period.
[21:26] <k1l_> confusedtwo: why not use the sliders at the side of the green frame?
[21:26] <mynameisJulian> thomedy: Apple xcode only runs on mac
[21:26] <linux_user> That said, a 5 year old Mac at a low price is still workable for xcode today and runs today's variant of MacOS
[21:26] <thomedy> i really cant compile swift or objective c... that makes me sad
[21:27] <linux_user> MacOS is not Linux or Ubuntu
[21:27] <thomedy> sure
[21:27] <lasersaber> mac is bsd i think
[21:27] <thomedy> right and i get the difference between bigend little end.. yada yada i was just hoping
[21:27] <k1l_> Confused: if you use the numbers you need to subtract the amount of the new size field and add it at free space following.
[21:27] <Ben64> thomedy: blame apple, they locked it all down
[21:27] <thomedy> i know
[21:27] <linux_user> no, not int he sense that environment he wants is on BSD either
[21:27] <linux_user> it once was very BSD like but not as much now
[21:27] <pseudonymous> thomedy: well, you could, if apple cared enough to let you. Even Microsoft is porting over their .NET environment (it even started off by running twice as fast as it did on Windows). The trouble is, Apple don't want you to, take it up with them
[21:27] <linux_user> it is very changed from that
[21:28] <linux_user> actually apple cares enough to give you xcode for their computers for free
[21:28] <linux_user> they do not want their apps running on Linux
[21:28] <pseudonymous> .. or their devs
[21:28] <lasersaber> dont use apple
[21:28] <lasersaber> :)
[21:28] <linux_user> I use both
[21:29]  * lasersaber :-/
[21:29] <linux_user> but Apple is Apple and there are reasons why they do that. After all, there is no vendor selling more UNIX systems than Apple at this point, so its not bad what they do if you ask me
[21:29] <linux_user> no one
[21:29]  * lasersaber :-/
[21:29]  * lasersaber :-|
[21:30] <linux_user> but the reality is if you "need to write for iOS" as you said, then you need an Apple box to really do it right
[21:30] <linux_user> its not a religious thing, its a fact
[21:30] <pseudonymous> I have a Mac for work.. Only now did the wisen up and offer standard PC laptops..  You even need to install a custom bootloader to get things going. Nor do apple care enough to properly implement graphics-switching in a standards-compliant way, they just hacked something together for their OS and refuse interop if a non-OSX OS is loading.. Man I hate Apple.
[21:30] <linux_user> like it or not
[21:31] <lasersaber> u can vb iso i guess if u need it that bad :-/
[21:31] <bekks> No, you cannot
[21:31] <linux_user> he violates the license to do that really
[21:31] <lasersaber> u can use vb to run apple*
[21:31] <lasersaber> sorry
[21:31] <linux_user> and if he becomes an Apple Development that may matter to him
[21:31] <linux_user> as he will agree to not do such things
[21:31] <bekks> lasersaber: Only when having Apple Hardware as well.
[21:32] <pseudonymous> Apple makes Microsoft look like a bunch of treehuggers :P
[21:32] <Nytram> lmao.. true
[21:32] <lasersaber> hmmm i seen people run apple on intel pcs on YT
[21:32] <pseudonymous> (and then try to find a picture for Canonical.. :P)
[21:32] <linux_user> actually Apple offers a way to get most normal commercial applications without the pain of Windows
[21:33] <pseudonymous> No, they offer a partially broken OS which, due to marketing, vendors are forced to interact with
[21:33] <Ben64> kinda veered off topic now
[21:33] <tomreyn> pseudonymous: did you succeed on your full disk encryption?
[21:33] <bekks> lasersaber: which doesnt make it being legal.
[21:33] <linux_user> So if you need quickbooks, autocad, and Office without the Windows junkOS you can have it and get UNIX too
[21:33]  * lasersaber :-|
[21:34] <pseudonymous> tomreyn: Nope, playing with the OS X recovery boot atm. But basically it seems like you need to partition things manually if you don't want to erase the entire disk, and at that point you realize how buggy the partitioning dialog is (I had it crash on me in 3 different ways)
[21:34] <linux_user> anyway to answer your real question, you need a MacOS environment on Apple Hardware to do what you need. With everything in life, to do it right is many times not free
[21:35] <linux_user> any more than soldering an authentic Mercedes emblem to a Ford does not a Mercedes make it.
[21:35] <tomreyn> pseudonymous: hmm, i use it quite regularly and i never crashed (as in segmentation fault, the process failing) on me. but maybe it's due to some special hardware.
[21:35] <pseudonymous> The Unix thing is a misnomer at this point. If you mean to get a certified Unix OS, sure, Apple paid for the cert, so they can call it Unix. But if you read up on the Unix philosophy, or compare the tools bundled to those on modern-day unices, it just doesn't compare (favourably)
[21:36] <lasersaber> burn..
[21:36]  * lasersaber lol
[21:36] <tomreyn> please would you move religious discussions to #ubuntu-offtopic? we really only do support here.
[21:36] <pseudonymous> tomreyn: not segfaults, but a freeze, some state-related partion-tool error where if I went back after making a crypt-partition, it couldn't redo/continue anything. Last thing was a crash further into the install because it failed to mount the / crypt partition.. Sadly.
[21:37] <tomreyn> pseudonymous: that'son apple hardware if i got this correctly?
[21:37] <linux_user> Is there a room policy to kick people offering solutions that violate the licensure terms of software? That
[21:37] <linux_user> that would likely get those people out
[21:38] <ubuntu121> heyyy
[21:38] <Ben64> there is a room policy to kick people out who are offtopic, which all of this is
[21:38] <ubuntu121> jemand da??
[21:38] <tomreyn> !de | ubuntu121
[21:38] <pseudonymous> tomreyn: no, that's just because the partitioning dialog isn't great, I think. A multitude of other issues are. But that's a different story. I've given up.
[21:39] <lasersaber> /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:39] <tomreyn> pseudonymous: sorry, i got to go for now. i should be back in ~ 45 min (for ~ another hour) in case you could not get assistance by then and are still looking for it.
[21:40] <tomreyn> and, yes it the installer won't work, partition first
[21:41] <linux_user> Well, the initiate query was asking about the cross availability of MacOS development tools for Linux, a reasonable question that should have ended with just no, there is not if you want to deploy an application via the Apple iOS App Store eco-system instead of all the transmogrified responses that was provisioned by people with 'religious issues'.
[21:42] <eskatrem> sorry, I logged on and off, basically I tried to tweak my .xinitrc file to start unity normally but couldnt.
[21:42]  * pseudonymous has religious issues :/ (Sorry)
[21:42] <k1l_> linux_user: this channel is ubuntu technical support focused. for chatter we have #ubuntu-offtopic .
[21:43] <BlueProtoman> I'm using Ubuntu 16.10, with MATE.  For some reason, the menu bars (File, Edit, View, etc.) in any Qt application (I tried in at least Tiled and qpdfview) don't appear.  How do I fix this?
[21:43] <linux_user> I agree, that is why I was suggesting that the only answer should have stopped at no, MacOS development requires a MacOS based Apple hardware system
[21:44] <Ben64> linux_user: but then you kept going on and on and on, and you brought it back up now...
[21:44] <linux_user> again the only thing I was pointing out was the answer was no
[21:45] <linux_user> and others came up with all that other crapola not I
[21:45] <Pelle`> i got this share on my debian machine that i have mounted on my win pc, i can create folders and delete folders but files i have downloaded with transmission i have to log on to the debian machine and erase when i want to delete them, i dont need root access to delete them with my local linux acc, got umask 2 set in transmission deamon cfg... how do i make it so that i can delete them from my
[21:45] <Pelle`> win pc?
[21:46] <ikonia> Pelle`: try #debian
[21:46] <ikonia> they support debian
[21:46] <linux_user> anyway, has anyone any information on getting SCID vs PC running within Ubuntu either by compilation of the source or knowing if a "scid vs pc" repo exists that has the binaries for that variant over the scid version that is less maintained?
[21:47] <Pelle`> ikonia yea but is kinda quiet there :) so i tought i'd try here
[21:47] <ikonia> Pelle`: not really acceptable
[21:47] <Pelle`> mkay..
[21:47] <ikonia> Pelle`: you waited 3 minutes,
[22:03] <Pozzo> Hello
[22:08] <mynameisJulian> It's quiet here :p
[22:08] <eskatrem> Pozzo: hi
[22:09] <kk4ewt> mynameisJulian, well it is Jan 1st
[22:09] <eskatrem> mynameisJulian: yeah and nobody could help me with my .xinitrc file
[22:09] <fearnothing> can someone help me understand why my logs are not being forwarded as I expect please?
[22:09] <k1l_> mynameisJulian: that is because ubuntu is running fine by everybody :)
[22:09] <fearnothing> I am trying to forward logs from the slapd service
[22:09] <fearnothing> they are logged to the local4 syslog facility
[22:09] <Pozzo> eskatrem: you are not using ubuntu-gnome flavor by the way ?
[22:09] <fearnothing> as I understand it this means I should put a line like the following in my rsyslog.conf:
[22:10] <eskatrem> Pozzo: I dont know... the 16.04
[22:10] <fearnothing> local4.* @dest.server.local:514
[22:10] <Pozzo> eskatrem: if you don't know... you are using the standard ubuntu flavor with unity :-)
[22:10] <fearnothing> other logs I have like authpriv,  etc, are successfully being sent with a line like that
[22:10] <dj_> hello
[22:10] <fearnothing> but not the slapd ones
[22:10] <fearnothing> why not?
[22:10] <mynameisJulian> Just think about it, Windows technical support has a constant 10 minute wait time and Ubuntu support is almost silent. That says enough.
[22:10] <eskatrem> Pozzo: yeah I guess it's the standard Ubuntu
[22:11] <fearnothing> mynameisJulian: if ubuntu had two billion users, it would be pretty busy...
[22:11] <eskatrem> well, ubuntu users are more computer litterate than windows users
[22:11] <ikonia> thats just nonsense
[22:12] <fearnothing> maybe on average, but there are plenty of ignorant ones too
[22:12] <mynameisJulian> fearnothing: One day....
[22:12] <fearnothing> mynameisJulian: unlikely
[22:13] <fearnothing> nothing wrong with ubuntu but the chances of it dislodging Windows are practically zero
[22:13] <brene> Hey All, I'm trying to install ubuntu 16.10 but sadly on the main installation screen (choose language screen) or any other screen, My bluetooth mouse doesn't work
[22:13] <mynameisJulian> When Windows 7 support will end that would make a lot of people switch to Ubuntu.
[22:13] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: What is up with a .xinitrc file ? As many DE's do not use it .
[22:14] <ikonia> mynameisJulian: no it won't
[22:15] <fearnothing> it appears we have a true believer here :P
[22:16] <mynameisJulian> Ubuntu will never be as big, but it's growing rapidly.
[22:16] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: well, maybe it's not the .xinitrc file, but I lost unity
[22:16] <ikonia> mynameisJulian: where are you getting this information from ?
[22:16] <lasersaber> guys, how can i add a show desktop icon in the taskbar panel?
[22:16] <xangua> lasersaber: what desktop?
[22:17] <brene> any ideas anyone?
[22:17] <lasersaber> never mind i found it on YT
[22:18] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: you're right, .xinitrc wasnt executed actually
[22:18] <mynameisJulian> ikonia: Browsing Forums, but I could be wrong. Ubuntu is just improving.
[22:18] <ikonia> mynameisJulian: you appear to just be saying things
[22:19] <mynameisJulian> brene: Do you have any regular USB mouse to try?
[22:19] <brene> Sadly no
[22:19] <mynameisJulian> Ikonia: I'm just trying to get some positive vibes going :D
[22:20] <ikonia> mynameisJulian: then don't
[22:20] <ikonia> mynameisJulian: just making random stuff up isn't helpful
[22:21] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: ubuntu 16.10 ? such that the Display Manager is lightdm ? Then if so we can work to restore lightdm if this is a fact .
[22:21] <Nytram> Oooh! Harsh ikonia ;)
[22:21] <hetii> re
[22:21] <hetii> ok still the same issue
[22:21] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: But  mind ya, my unity experience is old old .
[22:23] <mynameisJulian> Sorry Ikonia..
[22:23] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: I have ubuntu 16.04, I already did `dpkg-reconfigure lightdm`
[22:25] <FrostyBytes> brene: can't you control the UI through the keyboard alone? i.e., TAB through fields?
[22:25] <FrostyBytes> lol
[22:26] <hetii> q: I use ubuntu-mate 16.10 will latest packages and have issue with my mouse pointer, he freeze on left corner and don`t want to move.
[22:26] <hetii> I cane still use my mouse but without pointer.
[22:26] <hetii> any clue about such issue ?
[22:27] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Let's try the systemd way from the login screen ctl+alt+F1 to gain a console - stop the DM ; ' systemctl isolate multi-user.target ' change TTYs ctl+alt+F2 and now run in this TTY ' systemctl isolate graphical.target ' Back to a functional GUI ??
[22:28] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: ok, I was already in tty1 trying to bring unity to live somehow, let me run systemctl...
[22:30] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: yeah, after your command I get the log in screen from the GUI
[22:30] <eskatrem> let me log in now
[22:31] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: hmmm I couldn't log in for some reason, tried with a guest account
[22:31] <hetii> re
[22:31] <hetii> ok all works:)
[22:32] <hetii> what I did was to install nvidia driver for my gtx1070 and some intel microcode.
[22:32] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Well, this gets deeper ... Graphic's driver ? ( as guest also does not work ) ? what shows ' sudo lshw -C display ' in a pastebin site .
[22:34] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: by the way, my login is "samuel", and when I logged in, I was only offered to log in as "Samuel"
[22:34] <tryingthis> hello
[22:34] <ubuntu092> german ubuntu??
[22:34] <SerialDev> english here it would seem
[22:34] <k1l_> !de | ubuntu092
[22:35] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: I have not seen a later unity so I do not know what to expect at the login screen, sorry but that is the fact .
[22:35] <qwizzical> I'm trying to download a relatively large 1.5 GB file (it's a movie), but I can't seem to do so successfully. Is there a plug-in or something I can use to download such files?
[22:36] <ikonia> qwizzical: where are you downloading it from ?
[22:36] <qwizzical> seedr
[22:37] <ikonia> oh, so it's a torrent
[22:37] <qwizzical> yeah, basically
[22:37] <tryingthis> can anyone tell me why the version sof python in "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" on windows 10, is 2.7 and 3.4? Since python 3.6 is out, how come it doesn't use python 3.6 even after I did the apt-get upgrade thing?
[22:37] <reisio> qwizzical: is it not downloading >0% at all?
[22:37] <ikonia> tryingthis: because it only upgrades to supported packaged version
[22:37] <reisio> tryingthis: ls /usr/bin/*python*
[22:38] <reisio> tryingthis: and there's a specific channel for that system, I forget its name
[22:38] <tryingthis> oh. thanks for your help ikonia and reisio
[22:39] <tryingthis> I will try to find the appropriate channel
[22:39] <reisio> #ubuntu-on-windows
[22:39] <reisio> not many people, unsurprising
[22:39] <qwizzical> No, the download bar evidently indicated that it was being downloaded to some extent. But after a while, it said "Failed".
[22:39] <tryingthis> oh. thanks resisio
[22:39] <reisio> ##windows would technically be on-topic for that discussion, too
[22:39] <reisio> qwizzical: so what % did it get to?
[22:40] <tryingthis> cool. ill check out windows.
[22:40] <reisio> tryingthis: also, latest version released upstream isn't the same as latest stable downstream (Ubuntu)
[22:40] <qwizzical> I'm not sure -- that wasn't specified or anything -- but the download was about half-filled
[22:40] <qwizzical> download bar*
[22:40] <reisio> qwizzical: oh okay
[22:40] <reisio> qwizzical: what client was it?
[22:41] <qwizzical> Hmm, I'm not sure I quite understand. What do you mean?
[22:41] <tryingthis> thanks reisio
[22:41] <reisio> µTorrent, Deluge, Transmission, etc.
[22:41] <k1l_> what program do you use, qwizzical
[22:41] <lasersaber> BBL
[22:42] <reisio> the only reason I can think of for a torrent to say "download _failed_" is if your system ran out of space, really
[22:42] <qwizzical> Oh, well I downloaded the magnet link from yify, then put it on seedr, and that's about it
[22:42] <reisio> otherwise it would just keep trying to download, even if no progress was being made
[22:42] <qwizzical> I don't use a client of any sort like bittorrent and the like
[22:42] <qwizzical> shiiite
[22:42] <reisio> oh seedr is some web-based service?
[22:43] <reisio> if you have a storage limit, check you haven't exceeded it
[22:43] <qwizzical> yeah, it basically converts the magnet link to a downloadable form (through seeds and stuff)
[22:43] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Are you stuck at getting the 'lshw' to redirect to a pastebin site ?
[22:43] <qwizzical> no, I'm way below the storage limit
[22:43] <reisio> well, yeah that's what magnet links are for
[22:44] <reisio> if you haven't run out of resources, then the software has simply failed
[22:44] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: doing that now
[22:44] <reisio> seek out seedr's support system, or find a more reliable service
[22:44] <qwizzical> so what do you think I should do?
[22:44] <k1l_> qwizzical: well, that sounds like its a seedr issue, not an ubuntu issue?
[22:44] <reisio> take my advice, avoid things that talk about "the cloud"
[22:44] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: :) trying to help .
[22:45] <qwizzical> k1_ no, it's definitely not a seedr issue. I think it's a problem with my computer, because this happened just this one time
[22:45] <qwizzical> reisio haha why do you say that?
[22:45] <reisio> qwizzical: oh was the problem downloading an already-downloaded torrent contents from seedr to your computer, via http?
[22:46] <qwizzical> Yeah, I think so
[22:46] <reisio> okay well that can only likely be so many things
[22:46] <qwizzical> https maybe, but yeah
[22:46] <reisio> I would suspect, in this order: seedr failed on their end, your isp cut you off, your router failed, you ran out of space locally
[22:46] <k1l_> qwizzical: where is the issue now? you can download from seedr to your pc? whar error did you get? was the internet connection resetted?
[22:47] <reisio> g'luck, I'm out
[22:47] <reisio> happy new year everyone :)
[22:47] <qwizzical> This is what happened: seedr extracted all of the seeds of the file, allowing my PC to download said file. The download wasn't successful.
[22:47] <akik> qwizzical: it helps to tell complete error messages and not think so/maybe
[22:49] <akik> quintopia: you can upload error message pictures to imgur.com or transfer.sh or text errors to pastebin.com
[22:49] <akik> that was supposed to go to qwizzical
[22:49] <qwizzical> this is what it says "Failed -- seedr.cc"
[22:49] <qwizzical> there's no error message as such, except that
[22:50] <akik> qwizzical: is it your browser's downloader which says it or the seedr website?
[22:50] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23724620/ something like that
[22:50] <qwizzical> my brswer's downloaded (I'm on firefox)
[22:50] <qwizzical> downloader*
[22:50] <qwizzical> browser*
[22:51] <qwizzical> so I'm pretty sure seedr didn't mess up on its end
[22:51] <qwizzical> akik what do you think I should do?
[22:51] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Intel, and the drivr is loaded, Intel "just works" as a general rule . lemme scrath my head and consider what to do next .
[22:52] <kk4ewt> qwizzical, so you downloaded from a site not through a torrent
[22:52] <akik> qwizzical: unknown, i don't use seedr. have you checked at seedr that your torrent has been downloaded to 100% ?
[22:52] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: something strange happened, now I can't log in from the GUI (I'm typing this from another computer)
[22:52] <kk4ewt> did you verify your download
[22:53] <jgcampbell300> can anyone tell me if it is possable to tell grub to boot 1 line at a t ime ... maybe pause after each line
[22:53] <qwizzical> kk4ewt: Well, the magnet link was of one torrent's, and seedr extracted its seeds, allowing my browser to download the file
[22:53] <qwizzical> one of*
[22:54] <k1l_> qwizzical: we cant tell you what happend there. ask the seedr support
[22:54] <qwizzical> akik yup
[22:54] <akik> qwizzical: seedr.cc says that their server downloads the torrent
[22:54] <jgcampbell300> Like some kind of debug mode ?
[22:54] <pitastrudl> so i installed xfce4 alongside ubuntu unity 14.04 and the wierd thing is  that i cannot connect to my ssh servers on the xfce4 session
[22:54] <pitastrudl> but on unity it works okay
[22:54] <k1l_> qwizzical: actually ubuntu is not involved here at all.
[22:54] <qwizzical> akik hmm, what does that mean?
[22:54] <parsnip> packages like this aren't available by simply `sudo apt install taskd'? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+package/taskd
[22:54] <akik> qwizzical: you don't download the torrent, they download the torrent
[22:54] <pitastrudl> im getting Permission denied (publickey).
[22:55] <qwizzical> k1l_: Ah yeah I'm sorry haha, but no one else seems to know anything about it :/
[22:55] <qwizzical> akik Oh okay
[22:55] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Ouch ! .. reboot and see then if ya can get to the login screen ?
[22:55] <qwizzical> akik... but I download something, right?
[22:56] <akik> qwizzical: yes of course after seedr.cc has downloaded the torrent
[22:56] <jgcampbell300> or maybe some kind of safemode boot .. i dont know
[22:56] <akik> qwizzical: have you checked at seedr that your torrent has been downloaded to 100% ?
[22:56] <qwizzical> akik Basically I'm not able to download that "something". This has happened only once; I think it's because of the large file size
[22:56] <k1l_> jgcampbell300: you can only boot one line at a time on grub
[22:56] <qwizzical> akik yeah I checked that
[22:57] <eskatrem> Bashing-om:
[22:57] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: rebooting now
[22:57] <k1l_> qwizzical: again: ask seedr. we cant do anything here
[22:57] <Exterminador> guys, just a stupid question. it's possible to install Xubuntu into a us stick/external hdd? :x
[22:57] <Exterminador> *usb
[22:57] <parsnip> pitastrudl: are the permissions on your keys correct? maybe you can turn up verbosity on your ssh attempt.
[22:57] <Bashing-om> jgcampbell300: Not one line at a time, but if booting from grub one can set 1 page at a time .
[22:57] <akik> qwizzical: and check that your local disk space didn't run out
[22:58] <qwizzical> akik Lol no chance of that, I've got ~500 GB to spare
[22:58] <jgcampbell300> Bashing-om, cool .. how would i do that ... or where can i read up on it
[22:58] <BlueProtoman> I'm using Ubuntu 16.10, with MATE.  For some reason, the menu bars (File, Edit, View, etc.) in any Qt application (I tried in at least Tiled and qpdfview) don't appear.  Source is this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appmenu-qt5/+bug/1307619 , but the suggestion of uninstalling appmenu-qt5 didn't work.  Apparently this has something to do with dbus?  Any tips?
[22:58] <qwizzical> thanks anyway akik, I appreciate the help! :)
[22:58] <jgcampbell300> Bashing-om, i am trying to stop it from running a script  that crashes it and im not sure witch one is doing it or how to get to cli
[22:59] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Sure it is doable , people install to USB and external devices alla the time .
[22:59] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: ok, now, I can't login from the GUI with my normal user name, and if I log in with a guest I get an empty screen (the mouse works, though)
[22:59] <Exterminador> Bashing-om: but that will install grub on the laptop right? or it wont change nothing?
[23:00] <Bashing-om> gjWell . in such a case one can set "break points" when booting . But I do not have the direct expeience to say the when/how .
[23:01] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: hmm any pointer to start unity from tty1?
[23:01] <Exterminador> i mean, imagine that i have W10 on the laptop. and decide to install *buntu in a external drive. will anything happen related to bootloader of windows?
[23:01] <bivo> Ubuntu-Mate 16.10. Wifi has been incredibly slow ever since some updates about a week ago, every other OS or device I try gets the full 700Kbps download, but can't seem to hold a stable connection over wifi, averaging 10-250Kbps with spikes to 450Kbps but sometimes complete drops of the connection.
[23:01] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Again, it depends on the install method that you choose, If it os a defailt standard : erase disk and install ubuntu" then the default is to install grub to the 1st recognized device (sda) .
[23:02] <Exterminador> Bashing-om: then, if i choose the external drive, all will be installed in there, even the bootloader?
[23:03] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: from grub or from TTY1 ?
[23:03] <eskatrem> TTY1
[23:04] <Bashing-om> eskatrem:
[23:04] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: ' systemctl isolate graphical.target ' But That does much more than just start the GUI, it also stops everything that is not a dependency of graphical.target .
[23:06] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Best I can tell you to KNOW where grub will install is to use the "something else" install option . but ya need to know here what you are setting up . In something else you have the option to direct where grub installs to .
[23:06] <eskatrem> I was strying stuff like `startx unity` from tty1
[23:07] <spl33n> hello everybody, happy new year all and sorry for my bad english.
[23:07] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Old docs .. upstart does not apply to 16.10's systemd :)
[23:08] <eskatrem> :-s
[23:08] <Exterminador> Bashing-om: i understand. btw, seems windows don't let me create more than 4 partitions. can i override it with partition manager on xubuntu? will that affect anything?
[23:08] <genewitch> http://projectftm.com/index.php?75cb4d when i plug my ham radio into my ubuntu thing http://projectftm.com/index.php?75cb4d it completely freezes the system
[23:08] <ic2000> hello, i'm having an issue where ubuntu is not recognising my wireless internet adapter
[23:08] <genewitch> that's the tail of /var/log/messages, any other stuff needed i'll provide after a reboot
[23:08] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: For that matter ''startx' does not apply to upstart either .. old old old docs you are following .
[23:08] <ic2000> it worked for windows and other distros so i'm not sure why it wont work for ubuntu
[23:09] <Exterminador> when i've tried it on windows, it said that my disk will change into dynamic or something like that
[23:09] <eskatrem> hmm... I removed the ~/.Xauthority file, so now I can log in as my user name from the GUI, but I still have an empty screen (with mouse and the backgroundscreen I chose, though)
[23:09] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: hmm, startx, I knew that one when playing with debian (the computer I'm using to type this)
[23:10] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: No .. in the leagacy partioning scheme these is a 4 primary partition limit . ( die yo addressing ) . the way arounf this limit is to create one of those primary partitions as 'extended" and in this extended partition on can then create an additional 128 "logical" partitions .
[23:10] <spl33n> i have macbook 2,1 and i install on it ubuntu 14.04 LTS and i upgrade to 16.04 32bits, but i have some issues with keyboard, on mac if i want to type "|" for example i use alt+shift+l but in ubuntu this not work correctly . i look many website and forum but i dont find fix for my issues all special char not work
[23:10] <spl33n> help please
[23:11] <Exterminador> oh, i see. and afaik linux don't have problems on being installed into logical partitions
[23:12] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: And of the Windows disk is converted to dynamic . it is then exclusive to Windows and nothing else will touch it !@
[23:12] <Exterminador> you mean i can create the partitions i want and dont be afraid of that the disk change to dynamic?
[23:13] <Exterminador> i'll be able still to install the OSes i want?
[23:13] <Exterminador> (and boot them properly)
[23:14] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Let's try from a reboot to TTY1 ' dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ ; unity --reset-icons ; setsid unity ; systemd.unit=multi-user.target ' .
[23:14] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: what's that supposed to do?
[23:14] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Right, ubuntu will happily install to a logical partition :)
[23:14] <Exterminador> great!
[23:15] <Exterminador> i wanna try several flavors at once
[23:15] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: reset the desktop and then start the GUI .
[23:15] <Exterminador> i was wondering how can i make enuff partitions to do that
[23:16] <snowstorm> Exterminador: why not using VM virtualbox from Oracle
[23:16] <curly_brace> morning
[23:16] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Uh Huh .. long time ago others wondered same same .. and them smarty peeps came up with the 'extended' partition .
[23:17] <Exterminador> i have GParted installed. but i'm kinda newbie to this. all i know is to partition the disk in windows and i've partioned it into 3 W10, Xubuntu and the swap
[23:17] <Exterminador> snowstorm: my cpu don't support virtualization, so, VM will be extremly slow
[23:18] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: I ran sudo apt-get upgrade, it's taking a while :-/
[23:18] <Anon_115> Hello
[23:18] <Exterminador> i must read some tutorials to make partitions via GParted as extended
[23:18] <Exterminador> any usefull link?
[23:19] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Nest to do Windows things from Windows . defrag X2, and then run checkdisk X2 when unallocated space is made from Windows . Then when installing ubuntu " something else" amd set up your extended/logical partitions . Is what I think .
[23:19] <fcastillo> I'm having a weird problem when trying to delete files on a different partition. When I access the partition directly, deleted files go to the Trash, when accessing the partition through a symlink on my home, Nautilus/Nemo say they can't do it and the file has to be deleted
[23:19] <Bashing-om> !dualboot | Exterminador
[23:21] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: " update upgrade is always a smart way to start :)
[23:21] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: ok, I ran your command, got lots of: `compiz (core)` - Info ...`, and then `Segemtnation fault (core dumped)
[23:21] <Exterminador> Automatic partition resizing (not recommended) -> why not?
[23:21] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Ouch !! .. fresh install ??
[23:21] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: hmm it's couple of weeks old
[23:22] <genewitch> Burr-Brown from TI USB Audio CODEC causes ubuntu to hang when plugged in, anyone have any tips?
[23:23] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Did you verify the .iso file when you made up the live install environmental ?
[23:23] <eskatrem> the distro came with the computer
[23:24] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Can not say to that last .. I no do Windows in many many years . I no longer know what to expect from a Windows situation .
[23:25] <Exterminador> how i do a screenshot in Xubuntu? :x
[23:25] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: K .. let's say that the manufactirer then did well and we get the more drastic here amd revert the GUI to defaults. sound good ?
[23:26] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: that's what I was looking to do!
[23:26] <gde33> can I get nautilus to tell me the  full path of a folder including the drive name? I'm trying to set the firefox cache folder but /media/foo/bar isn't working
[23:27] <gde33> it is not writing anything
[23:27] <gde33> about:config entry: browser.cache.disk.parent_directory
[23:27] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Try ' rm ~/.gconf ~/.gconfd ~/.metacity ~/.compiz-1 ~/.config/compiz-1 ~/.config/dconf -rf ' ; reboot and let's "see" .
[23:28] <eskatrem> I don't have .gconfd and ~/.gconf is a directory
[23:28] <genewitch> eskatrem: that;s what the -rf does
[23:29] <eskatrem> ok, I just have .compiz and .gconf
[23:29] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: Hummm .. that ending "-rf" should have taken care of " is a directory " . as r == recursive .
[23:30] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: right, I missed that. rebooting now
[23:30] <deus_> having some trouble with a renaming script. what i am trying to do is rename all avi files in list of directory after the directory that they are in. here is what i have, but it is not working as expected: find . -type d -not -empty -exec echo mv  \{\}/*.avi \{\}.avi \;\
[23:30] <stan_man_can> isn't it rm -rf [dir] ?
[23:30] <stan_man_can> not rm [dir] -rf ?
[23:30] <stan_man_can> not sure if that matters
[23:30] <ic2000> does anyone have any idea of how to fix my issue?
[23:31] <qwizzical> how do I include subtitles in my video player?
[23:31] <genewitch> ic2000: usb?
[23:31] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: I rebooted, still get an empty GUI
[23:31] <deus_> it does not seem to be expanding the glob, do i need to escape it or put it in quotes or something?
[23:31] <ic2000> genewitch: yeah it's a usb adapter
[23:31] <genewitch> ic2000: what's lsusb say it is
[23:32] <Bashing-om> stan_man_can: Yeah .. does not matter . is but a matter of human perspective . If it does make you feel the better I will edit it to your preference (??) .
[23:32] <eskatrem> I rebooted, still got an empty GUI
[23:33] <Exterminador> Bashing-om: i can use GParted to shrink windows partition, move the unallocated space and add it to the extended partition that i already have, right?
[23:33] <ic2000> genewitch: https://bpaste.net/show/ded27293bf39
[23:34] <papa_> hi ppl
[23:34] <eskatrem> hi papa
[23:34] <papa_> tnx for all
[23:35] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Well, many have with good results .. but I say again Windows tools for Windows file system . for best results.
[23:35] <Exterminador> i just dont wanna rebbot into Windows, then rebbot into Xubuntu. :P
[23:35] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: One last poke ' rm ~/.dmrc ; . then we consider re-installing the DE .
[23:36] <Exterminador> *reboot
[23:36] <papa_> windows: planetsidede2
[23:37] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Shrinking a partition means re-writting the partition table, make it the easier on the system with defrag, and that the system is happy with the new partition table with 'chkdsk; . Now that is what I think .
[23:37] <ic2000> genewitch: what does it mean?
[23:37] <zerorax> Hi, I am having trouble fixing a problem. I installed ubuntu-server on a laptop with 2 gpu's one intel one nvidia. ubuntu tries to use the nvidia card and i get a black screen immediately. I believe installing nvidia-current will solve this problem, I used a desktop live usb and chrooted into my ubuntu-server install but it won't resolve any DNS, i can only use IP's, which means I can't use the repos to install
[23:37] <zerorax> nvidia-current. anyone know how I can make my chroot envirnment resolve dns?
[23:38] <papa_> hi man
[23:38] <Bashing-om> zerorax: How did you det up the chroot ? depends on that how to have DNS .
[23:38] <Bashing-om> det/set*
[23:39] <eskatrem> Bashing-om: ok how should I reinstall the DE? (I removed ~/.dmrc and rebooted, to no avail)
[23:39] <zerorax> Bashing-om, I bound /proc , /dev. and /sys and then chroot
[23:40] <papa_> im hack man from usa and setup wallpaper PUTIN
[23:40] <zerorax> I'm not familiar with chroot, I've only used it once before and it was with very detailed instructions
[23:40] <Bashing-om> eskatrem: 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop ' Where for sure this is a (u)buntu install !
[23:40] <Exterminador> Bashing-om: i'll consier your opinion. and redo almost everything on windows. event thought, then i can use GParted to "play" with the remaining partitions, since i think it wont affect anything as it will be unallocated space
[23:41] <Exterminador> *consider
[23:42] <CarlFK> xenial, desktop, Network Manager - trying to setup a static IP: <IP_ADDRESS>.    ping <IP_ADDRESS>  ... 64 bytes from <IP_ADDRESS> ...  ping <IP_ADDRESS>  From <IP_ADDRESS> icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
[23:42] <CarlFK> http://paste.ubuntu.com/23724928/  route -n
[23:43] <papa_> netstat -tsp
[23:43] <zerorax> Bashing-om, any ideas?
[23:44] <CarlFK> papa_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23724930/ netstat -tsp
[23:44] <CarlFK>
[23:44] <zerorax> there used to be a nosetmode boot flag that worked in order versions
[23:44] <zerorax> but 16.04 doesn't support it
[23:44] <Bashing-om> zerorax: ro directly answer one runs ' mount --bind /etc/resolv.conf /$CHROOT/run/resolvconf/resolv.conf ' . Hang on one and I get ya the chroot routine I use .
[23:45] <Exterminador> next time i'll leave at least 100Gb of unallocated space on disk
[23:45] <zerorax> Bashing-om, i'll try that while you find your routine. i really appreciate your helping me
[23:45] <deus_> zerorax, have you tried just dropping to console when it boots to the black screen instead of messing around with chroot?
[23:45] <deus_> zerorax, i.e. ctrl-alt-f1
[23:46] <zerorax> deus_, yes, that doesn't work, i believe the black screen is related to something that stops the boot sequence
[23:46] <deus_> fair
[23:46] <papa_> s novim godom parnni
[23:46] <zerorax> everything i've read says this can be fixed on similar laptops by installing nvidia-current from the repo
[23:46] <Bashing-om> zerorax: Mine that is known to work ; ' sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt ; for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done - sudo chroot /mnt ' .
[23:47] <zerorax> tbh, i'd rather disable the nvidia gpu sice it eats electricity and I don't need it for the way i will be using the computer
[23:47] <ic2000> uhh, genewitch you still here?
[23:47] <CarlFK> papa_:   umm.. what?
[23:47] <zerorax> thanks Bashing-om
[23:47] <zerorax> and thanks for your input deus_
[23:48] <ic2000> eh ok, could someone else help me then
[23:48] <Exterminador> just one question: Partition: /dev/sda1; File System: nfts; Mount Point: n/a; Size: 9.77 GiB, Used: 327.24 MiB; Unused: 9.45 GiB; Flags: diag --> can i shrink this damn partition?
[23:48] <deus_> shrug, just an idea. i tend to overcomplicate things myself because i barely know what i'm doing, heh.
[23:49] <zerorax> Exterminador, you can shrink it, I'm not sure if you can do it from linux using gparted or if you need a windows
[23:49] <Exterminador> what does that partition means?
[23:49] <Exterminador> what's the purpose of it?
[23:50] <zerorax> oh it's n 10gb... it's probably a recovery or efi partition
[23:50] <genewitch> ic2000: is the ID 04d9:a061 Holtek Semiconductor, Inc. the wifi device? when you unplug it from USB and run lsusb again does that item disappear?
[23:50] <Exterminador> because: Flags: boot is in /dev/sda2
[23:50] <zerorax> don't shrink it
[23:50] <genewitch> Burr-Brown from TI USB Audio CODEC causes ubuntu to hang when plugged in, anyone have any tips? http://projectftm.com/index.php?75cb4d this is what /var/log/messages say when i plug it in
[23:50] <papa_> happy new yea from siberia
[23:51] <Exterminador> zerorax: via GParted it says the Minimum size should be 328 MiB
[23:51] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: Once Windows is happy happy happy, and you have the unabllocated space, in GParted you can play with that unallocated space to your heart's content .
[23:52] <Exterminador> Bashing-om: that's what i've thought
[23:52] <Exterminador> windows is a pain in the arse, but still i need it.
[23:52] <zerorax> Exterminador, it says that because that's how much data it has on it. it can't shrink beyond the point where it's full without losing data, but gparted is assuming the partition will never need more space for new data
[23:52] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: "Size: 9.77 GiB" that is already tiny bu todaus standarfs .
[23:53] <Exterminador> zerorax: copy that. i won't touch it
[23:53] <ic2000> genewitch: oh crap. u wanted the usb plugged in when i did it. i just redid it and this on reappeared "Bus 008 Device 003: ID 0cf3:20ff Atheros Communications, Inc. AR7010 (no firmware)"
[23:53] <Bashing-om> by todays*
[23:53] <zerorax> if it's an EFI partition you could screw up your system and have to do a clean install of everyting
[23:53] <ic2000> so i'd assume it's that one, the no "firmware" thin makes sense too
[23:53] <Exterminador> zerorax: better not touch it. my hdd is not in good shape already, i guess
[23:53] <Exterminador> LOL
[23:54] <Guest23049> how do i add a link in my desktop applications dropdown (mate de) for a program i just installed (liteide)?
[23:54] <Exterminador> btw, what's the smarctl command to check the disk, to see if it's dying or not?
[23:54] <zerorax> Exterminador, yeah, and if you DO decide you NEED to resize, it, don't shrink it to the minimum, leave considerable space to be used in future
[23:55] <zerorax> I don't know too much about EFI, but I know that it needs it's own partition in most use cases
[23:55] <Exterminador> zerorax: i also think it's the efi thing
[23:56] <genewitch> ic2000: you need the firmware
[23:56] <zerorax> 10gb seems like more than it needs, but at some point someone decided that it should be that big for a reason
[23:56] <Bashing-om> Exterminador: As you have asked about 4 primary partition ,imits , this is not a EFI drive/system / RFI dupports 128 partitions by default.
[23:56] <ic2000> genewitch: yeah but how can i obtain it?
[23:56] <ic2000> genewitch: it seemed to installed itself on windows and other distros
[23:56] <genewitch> ic2000: apt install linux-firmware
[23:56] <genewitch> ic2000: usually
[23:56] <ic2000> genewitch: okay. do i restart after?
[23:56] <genewitch> couldn't hurt
[23:57] <Villager> Wassup fellas!
[23:57] <ic2000> alright, thanks man. if i don't come back then it worked :)
[23:57] <sdasda> guys i have a problem installing ubuntu, can anyone help me please?
[23:57] <sdasda> i need my computer
[23:57] <Exterminador> Bashing-om: i have a partition with 1.02GiB of unallocated space
[23:58] <snowstorm> sdasda: explain problem
[23:58] <Exterminador> even GParted don't let me create another partition. i have the swap on the extended partition. can i add that 1.02 GiB to the swap?
[23:59] <sdasda> snowstorm i put the iso on a usb stick and i clicked on the install ubuntu thing after rebooting my computer, i did all the steps and when the installation started, it got stuck on ''getting data from time server'' i restarted my computer and tried to install again but now all i get is a black screen with a blinking dash after i click install ubunt
[23:59] <sdasda> u
[23:59] <papa_> grub
[23:59] <sdasda> snowstorm and now my harddrive is all wiped so i dont have windows on it
[23:59] <Exterminador> my machine have 4Gb ram, so i've created the swap with 4Gb. will that 1.02GiB make any difference on the performance?


[11:32] <seb128> hey
[11:33] <seb128> does anyone know when xenial is going to be open for translations?
[11:37] <cjwatson> wgrant: ^- when you did this for wily, did you run a test copy anywhere?  dogfood doesn't have wily, let alone xenial
[11:38] <wgrant> cjwatson: No, it can't really go wrong any more.
[11:38] <cjwatson> I love it when somebody who isn't me says that.
[11:38] <cjwatson> Let me go find a webop.
[11:39] <wgrant> In the old days it took LP down for eight hours and inserted tens of millions of rows.
[11:39] <wgrant> Bit simpler now.
[11:42] <cjwatson> wgrant: Can you see why ackee.canonical.com::launchpad-production-logs/rosetta/approve-imports.log has been "Lockfile /var/lock/launchpad-translations-import-queue-gardener.lock in use" for ages?
[11:44] <wgrant> cjwatson: Probably libreoffice, but looking.
[11:45] <wgrant> https://translations.launchpad.net/+imports/+index?field.filter_extension=all&field.filter_status=NEEDS_REVIEW&field.filter_target=all&batch=75&direction=backwards&memo=255550&start=255475
[11:45] <wgrant> hi libreoffice
[11:47] <cjwatson> Will that need to be killed?
[11:47] <wgrant> No.
[11:47] <wgrant> It'll just take a few hours each run.
[11:47] <wgrant> Oh
[11:47] <wgrant> You mean for the opening?
[11:47] <wgrant> Yes, best to disable and kill.
[11:47] <cjwatson> Yes
[11:48]  * cjwatson looks for "gardener" and only finds it in a script-monitor line
[11:48] <wgrant> That's rosetta-approve-imports
[11:48] <cjwatson> oh, I guess it's in fact rosetta-approve-imports itself
[11:51] <cjwatson> I'm assuming that gigantic needs-review queue is something that Ubuntu needs to garden
[11:51] <wgrant> Right.
[11:52] <wgrant> Classically Ubuntu's translations people would clean it up, or the LP translations team.
[11:52] <wgrant> There's a minor problem with that strategy now.
[11:52] <cjwatson> That neither group exists?
[11:52] <wgrant> Correct!
[11:54] <cjwatson> dpm: ^- is there still anyone from your end who might be able to have a look at the translations import queue?
[11:56] <dpm> cjwatson, I will approve new templates from time to time, but it's been quite a while now that no one has looked at the import queues. It's just too much manual work
[12:05] <Laney> how long does it for a PPA's reported disk space to drop after deleting packages?
[12:05] <Laney> if a long time, can someone enable armhf on ppa:ubuntu-desktop/ppa? :)
[12:06] <cjwatson> Laney: A day ish
[12:08] <cjwatson> Laney: that's a virtualised PPA, so armhf will go through qemu-user-static; and ~ubuntu-desktop has non-Canonical members, so I can't make it devirt
[12:08] <cjwatson> are qemu-user-static builds going to be sufficient for what you're doing?  they tend to break with threading
[12:08] <Laney> Well, I want to test an ffmpeg build, so I'd guess not actually.
[12:09] <Laney> I could just grab a silo, or use a PPA of mine
[12:10] <Laney> cjwatson: Maybe https://launchpad.net/~laney/+archive/ubuntu/experimental/+edit ? Or I can grab a landing PPA if you prefer.
[12:11] <cjwatson> Laney: I'm not in commercial-admins, so can't do it myself.  wgrant may still be around, otherwise using a silo would be simplest
[12:11] <wgrant> Size bump?
[12:11] <wgrant> Sure.
[12:12] <Laney> wgrant: devirt-and-armhf
[12:13] <wgrant> Laney: Or I could just bump the quota of ~laney/ubuntu/arm.
[12:13] <Laney> wgrant: If you think ffmpeg is going to survive a build
[12:13] <wgrant> Oh, that's virt, I see.
[12:13] <Laney> Or devirt that one, whatever. :P
[12:14] <wgrant> May make more sense to devirt that one.
[12:14] <wgrant> experimental doesn't look obviously nonvirt.
[12:14] <wgrant> arm's quota quadrupled, virt disabled.
[12:15] <Laney> Cheers!
[12:20] <cjwatson> seb128: OK, initial steps done from our end, and I've mailed ubuntu-translations-coordinators@ for the next bits.  Will see if anyone answers.
[12:21] <seb128> cjwatson, thanks
[16:17] <sergiusens> cjwatson, hey, I recall a while back that we might get commit message semantics for git to have lp mark bugs 'Fix Commited'
[16:26] <cjwatson> sergiusens: Certainly not that; LP has never done that even for bzr.  But we should hopefully get links in the not too distant future, which were dependent on some generalising of cross-references that wgrant did a while back.
[16:32] <sergiusens> oh sorry, right, the automatic Fixed Comitted state change is a tarmac thing


[01:53] <Glorfindel> is there any reason to not add 18.04 repos to a 16.04 install?
[01:53] <Glorfindel> I'm needing the latest version of some software and it's not availible for 16.04
[02:07] <teward> Glorfindel: yes, because it'll try and install *everything* from the 18.04 repos where there's newer software versions
[02:07] <teward> and it *will* torch your system when it tries to do that
[02:07] <teward> It'd be better to try and nitpick the individual packages, or find backported versions, or find a PPA for them (even though we don't support PPAs)
[02:08] <Glorfindel> hm alright... (out of curiosity, what do you mean by torch my system?)
[02:09] <Glorfindel> I'm averaging one dep resolution per day, it's been slow
[02:09] <teward> Glorfindel: as in it'll break libraries, software versions, dependencies, etc. to a point where it will basically be easier to reinstall from scratch than fix the damage.
[02:09] <Glorfindel> ahh, I see
[02:09] <teward> Glorfindel: might be easier to know what's in 18.04 that's not in 16.04 in this case
[02:10] <Glorfindel> well, libssl.so.1.1 was missing, along with libcrypto, but I did get those added, so now it's letting me know about the next unresolved deps, and there's probably more where they came from
[02:10] <Glorfindel> I ended up building from source and cp'ing the required files to the server program dir
[02:11] <teward> Glorfindel: well depending on the software it might be semi-easy to do a backport in a PPA rather than manually recompile as you're doing.  But without knowing the specific software in question :P
[02:13] <Glorfindel> teward: what does creating a ppa backport all entail? I'm testing the minecraft bedrock alpha
[02:14] <Glorfindel> right now the main holdup is figuring out what package has what lib
[02:15] <teward> oooo, yeah that might be problematic.
[02:16] <Glorfindel> it was working until they updated the deps and basically made ubuntu 18.04 the mandatory "plug and play" release
[02:17] <Glorfindel> dropped all other distros as well, so maybe I should check into updating my vps :/
[02:17] <teward> Glorfindel: yeah that kind of makes you need to do an upgrade.  Pretty sure that isn't going to backport cleanly, especially if it needs newer OpenSSL versions (1.1.1 is really new)
[02:19] <Glorfindel> it's a shame about my uptime though :/
[02:19] <Glorfindel> getting close to a year
[06:09] <positivefix> Hi folks! I'm on a fresh 16.04 server install and snapd doesn't seem to work. This is the output of systemctl status snapd.service: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/KSw4D6W46H/
[06:10] <positivefix> And the output of journalctl -u snapd: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/X3V63Ys8nY/

[16:05] <Ussat> OK, lets assume I am ssh -X into a Ubuntu 1.004 server that has a GUi, whats the disk utility called so I can launch it over the ssh tunnel ?
[16:05] <Ussat> 16.04
[16:07] <Ussat> NM got it
[16:41] <lotuspsychje> place your details here geard along with your kernel version
[16:42] <geard> hey guys, i'm having some issues with load testing against NGINX, when I hit the server with Jmeter I am getting ~3Mbbits of through put using iperf, when not running the jemter I get ~9Gibts of through put. Linux HQLB161 4.4.0-141-generic #167-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 5 10:40:15 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[16:42] <geard> lotuspsychje: thanks.
[16:44] <TJ-> geard: could it be the Java overheard, or possibly some process/rlimits restricting JMeter?
[16:46] <geard> TJ-: the JMeter stuff is running on 6 client machines(physical) the Ubuntu server seems to be the one having the issues as iperf is running from an independent system.
[16:46] <geard> iperf client that is*
[21:39] <ironhalik> hello
[21:41] <ironhalik> I'm trying to set up iscsi with multipath on xenial server as the initiator, and Dells scv2020 compellet storage as the target
[21:41] <ironhalik> and I'm hitting roadblock after roadblock :/
[21:42] <ironhalik> right now - I'm logged into all the targets which appear to be working, but I don't see any block devices on them
[21:44] <ironhalik> all I can see when checking the session, is: Attached SCSI devices: Host Number: 11 State: running - someone has any experience with anything like that?
[22:16] <ironhalik> mhm weirdly enough, after reinitiating the session couple of times - iscsiadm discovered a single LUN on one target, but not on the otherones (and all the targets should have the same LUN for multipath)
