[16:12] <EriC^^> wastrel: it sounds like you need to repair the windows boot using a windows cd, you can download it for free online i think
[16:12] <ikonia> wastrel: so you now have grub booting ubuntu, but when it tries to boot windows you get the BCD error
[16:12] <wastrel> ya
[16:12] <RFleming> Greetings
[16:12] <RFleming> is there a way to force do-release-upgrade to a specific version?
[16:13] <ikonia> RFleming: it will offer the next available version
[16:13] <tgm4883> RFleming: probably not. What are you trying to accomplish
[16:13] <RFleming> ikonia, Not when the release is really old :)
[16:13] <joelio> RFleming: or a -d will do development...
[16:13] <ikonia> wastrel: so it looks like the boot data is misssing from egi
[16:13] <ikonia> efi
[16:13] <ikonia> RFleming: yes, it will
[16:13] <RFleming> I'm trying to upgrade 9.04 to 9.10, but it's trying to go right to 12.04
[16:13] <wastrel> efi is a headache
[16:13] <joelio> RFleming: waaaaaa?
[16:13]  * tgm4883 smacks head
[16:13] <EriC^^> !eolupgrades | RFleming
[16:13] <ikonia> RFleming: because 12.04 is the net available release
[16:14] <joelio> and in support still!
[16:14] <RFleming> yep
[16:14] <tgm4883> RFleming: ok I have to ask. Why are you trying to upgrade a 9.04 machine?
[16:14] <ikonia> wastrel: it can make life simple or really complex, it's not worked out how people thought
[16:14] <RFleming> Well, it was 8.10
[16:14] <RFleming> and I'm doing it for some laughs
[16:14] <joelio> eww, dist-upgrade cruft
[16:14] <joelio> not fun
[16:14] <RFleming> but seriously it's a production machine that used to run a CVS pserver through portmapper and xinetd
[16:14] <ubuntu_nub> EriC^^: any other thoughts?
[16:14] <joelio> just reinstall it!
[16:15] <RFleming> err.. it WAS a production machine
[16:15] <wastrel> if it's just for laughs you could do the (unsupported) thing of changing the release in the sources.list and upgrade
[16:15] <RFleming> thankfully, Engineering has decided to embrace GIT (and a new server)
[16:15] <tgm4883> RFleming: ok, well if it's just for fun, look at the eolupgrades link. If you actually need to use it, I'd install a new box and start moving stuff over
[16:15] <kidda> wastrel: Install Windows first
[16:16] <kidda> then install ubuntu from within Windows
[16:16] <tgm4883> no don't do that...
[16:16] <ikonia> kidda: please stop
[16:16] <RFleming> When trying to run do-release-upgrade, I'm getting attribute errors, to which I'm assuming are things relevant to precise, that jaunty has no clue about
[16:16] <ikonia> kidda: just focus on your own problem
[16:16] <kidda> its solved.
[16:16] <ikonia> kidda: great
[16:17] <tgm4883> kidda: then don't assist other people in things you don't know about
[16:17] <k1l_> wubi is not supported anymore.
[16:17] <kidda> so i want to return the favour
[16:17] <ikonia> kidda: you're not helping
[16:17]  * RFleming will try the unsupported change release in sources.list file until 10.04, then let it upgrade from LTS to LTS, perhaps that'll work better
[16:17] <kidda> how do you know?
[16:17] <ikonia> wastrel: so I may have missed this on the scroll back, but do you have the windows CD ?
[16:18] <joelio> RFleming: good luck!
[16:18] <kidda> I faced the same issue, and I found this solution worked
[16:18] <tgm4883> kidda: because you're recommending things that aren't supported anymore?
[16:18] <RFleming> joelio... hehe, thanks! this'll be fun!
[16:18] <RFleming> I want to see if it'll break
[16:18] <EriC^> ubuntu_nub: did the logs show anything?
[16:18] <RFleming> This is a cloned VM, and will be a read-only repository
[16:19] <ubuntu_nub> nope
[16:19] <ubuntu_nub> nothing
[16:19] <EriC^> ubuntu_nub: do you have another machine you can try logging in from to see if it's a putty issue?
[16:19] <EriC^> a free shell or something?
[16:19] <ikonia> just ssh localhost
[16:19] <kidda> I happened for me.
[16:19] <ikonia> from the ubuntu machine
[16:19] <kidda> It happened for me.
[16:19] <wastrel> ikonia: no windows CD
[16:19] <ikonia> kidda: yes you said that - your solution is not good,
[16:19] <kidda> wubi
[16:19] <ubuntu_nub> EriC^^: i could spin up one of my vms
[16:19] <wastrel> i will have to find one to download or something
[16:20] <ikonia> kidda: thank you for trying, but it's not a good suggestion
[16:20] <ikonia> wastrel: thats a pain, you'll need that to regenerate the BCD data
[16:20] <kidda> okkkAay
[16:20] <wastrel> windows :(
[16:20] <RFleming> thank goodness for old-releases.ubuntu.com
[16:20] <ikonia> wastrel: (the guys in ##windows may have another way of rebuilding the BCD data - but I don't know how without a windows CD)
[16:21] <EriC^^> ubuntu_nub: try on the machine itself as ikonia said
[16:21] <tgm4883> wastrel: what version of windows?
[16:21] <kidda> I have a dual boot machine, Windows and Ubuntu, but now I have run out of hard disk space for Windows, and there is no free space left, and the remaining is being used by ubuntu
[16:21] <kidda> Is there a way I can increase the hard disk space for windows?
[16:22] <EriC^^> kidda: yeah you can shrink the ubuntu partition from a live usb and increase the windows partition size
[16:22] <ikonia> kidda: boot from livemedia and resize with a tool such as gparted
[16:22] <kidda> Okay
[16:22] <kidda> I have not tried live usb
[16:22] <ubuntu_nub> ok whats the command for verbose -vv?
[16:22] <kidda> I tried gparted, did not work
[16:23] <ikonia> ubuntu_nub: just test it locally
[16:23] <EriC^^> ubuntu_nub: ssh -vvv user@host
[16:23] <kidda> But I have not tried livemedia and then use gparted.
[16:23] <DJones> kidda: But make sure you have backups, resizing while normally safe can cause a loss of data
[16:23] <EriC^^> kidda: can you show a screenshot of gparted?
[16:23] <tgm4883> kidda: is this on the box you installed via wubi?
[16:23] <DJones> kidda: You can't resize an active partition which is why you have to use a live media
[16:23] <ubuntu_nub> hows this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/23112518/
[16:24] <kidda> Okay, will resizing affect ubuntu or windows ?
[16:24] <ikonia> ubuntu_nub: you are missing the private key
[16:24] <wastrel> tgm4883: this system shipped with win 7 but i think i can upgrade to 10 with the license
[16:24] <kidda> I did not try using live media, I will do that and share the results
[16:25] <ubuntu_nub> ah, I dont know how to do it from the command line with the key
[16:25] <ubuntu_nub> let me check
[16:25] <tgm4883> wastrel: I think you'll need to download an ISO and burn it.
[16:25] <RFleming> joelio, jaunty to karmic went without a hitch... now for karmic to lucid
[16:26] <tgm4883> wastrel: As others have said. I think you'll need a CD to fix that
[16:26] <kidda> definitely a cd is needed
[16:26] <joelio> RFleming: yea, it boils down to what's installed on the box too.. juge stacks with lots of dpkg options is a recipe for cruft.. if not, fewer bins/config/customisation then more likely to be upgradable without headache
[16:27] <kidda> thats what i did
[16:27] <ubuntu_nub> how do I attempt to connect with the keyfile and not password?
[16:27] <RFleming> joelio, there isn't a lot on this box.  I understand there will be crud left over, and I don't really care.   The whole box is less than 40 GiB in a virtual environment
[16:27] <kidda> make sure you keep good amount space for both os
[16:28] <tgm4883> wastrel: IIRC, if you download and burn a windows ISO to a DVD, there is an option to repair the install
[16:28] <RFleming> I dreaded doing this upgrade years ago because cvs was sensitive, and I wasn't comfortable.  Now that it's no longer in production... I want to see if it'll go :)
[16:28] <joelio> RFleming: yea, prehaps I'm sullied with memories of dist-upgrading Exim servers from Potato to Etch back in t'day :)
[16:29] <RFleming> I don't think I'll be able to get this server past 14.04 though... since 16.04 goes to systemd
[16:29] <RFleming> I think that'll break a lot
[16:31] <daveomcd> i have a webserver on ubuntu server, how can i install microsoft fonts to it? I see there is a ttf-mscorefonts-installer package, but is that what i want to use? can i use it with a gui?
[16:33] <RFleming> daveomcd, ttf-mscorefonts-installer will download and install the Microsoft core fonts to your system (after you accept the ULA)
[16:33] <daveomcd> kk thanks!
[16:34] <wad> So I changed my network to use DHCP client for IP address only, and I manually specified my DNS. I restarted networking. But when I do "nmcli device show <interfacename>" it shows that it is using the wrong DNS. Ideas?
[16:35] <RFleming> wad, where did you manually specify your DNS?
[16:35] <pawiecki> Hi, i wonder if Ubuntu works well on nexus 4. I'm getting bored and want to try something new. Is it worth trying right now?
[16:35] <wad> In the "ipv4" tab of the network connection dialog.
[16:35] <EriC^^> !touch | pawiecki might be helpful
[16:35] <RFleming> pawiecki, https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/phone/devices/devices/
[16:35] <netvixtra> wad: it overwrites your resolv.conf by a mistake?
[16:36] <pawiecki> thanks
[16:36] <k1l_> pawiecki: its still teh development phone for ubuntu-touch. just try it (but you will need to wipe the whole device)
[16:36] <wad> The resolv.conf file didn't get any changes when I set the DNS.
[16:36] <wad> Maybe I need to reboot.
[16:36]  * wad reboots
[16:36] <netvixtra> didnt nexus 4 just get android 7?
[16:36] <pawiecki> k1l_: i have no problem with wiping devices ;)
[16:37] <tgm4883> netvixtra: no
[16:37] <RFleming> netvixtra, nope
[16:37] <netvixtra> to old hw?
[16:37] <pawiecki> netvixtra: hahaha, no :D
[16:37] <tgm4883> netvixtra: yes, and off topic for this channel
[16:37] <RFleming> netvixtra, nexus 5 isn't getting it either
[16:37] <kanevbgbe> Hello. Do someone know hot to prevent GUI lagging in Ubuntu 16.04 (it seems to happen only when window is maximized)?
[16:38] <pawiecki> kanevbgbe: be more specific, tell us more about hardware
[16:38] <RFleming> joelio, do-release-upgrade from 10.04.4 to 12.04.4 in progress :)
[16:38] <kanevbgbe> yes, xeon 5650, 24gb ram, quadro fx 1700
[16:38] <wad> That worked! Rebooting worked!
[16:38] <kanevbgbe> 850 ssd evo
[16:38] <james1138> Hello to the list from here in Indiana. I have a few questions about Banshee player. Is this where I can ask?
[16:39] <netvixtra> RFleming: bummer, nexus 6p isnt supported by ubuntu just yet
[16:40] <RFleming> ahh well :)
[16:40] <kidda> can i use the ubuntu 14.04 lts to change partition of 16.04 lts?
[16:40] <R13ose> I have YUMI MultiBoot USB running and I want to install Ubuntu, how do I do that with this?
[16:40] <RFleming> kidda, yes*
[16:40] <k1l_> kidda: yes.
[16:41] <RFleming> *depending on what filesystem you're modifying
[16:41] <RFleming> if you're 16.04 is using ZFS, then no
[16:41] <RFleming> unless you're going to install the ZFS userspace stuff on the live cd
[16:41] <kidda> zfs ?
[16:42] <RFleming> if you don't know what ZFS is, then I wouldn't worry about it :)
[16:43] <kidda> did not use zfs
[16:44] <kidda> so basically, you mean the file system is same, so I can use ubuntu 14.04 to change partition of 16.04
[16:45] <R13ose> Any thoughts on my question?
[16:46] <k1l_> kidda: dont get  confused. you can use a 14.04 cd/usb to resize
[16:51] <mypainter> hi! Anyone here know which package provides "powf" in (x)ubuntu16.04?
[16:51] <EriC^> !find powf
[16:52] <mypainter> :( no packages
 and <ubottu>: thanks
[16:52] <krytarik> !find powf
[16:53] <EriC^> mypainter: what does powf do?
[16:53] <mypainter> no idea; i think* it is a fortran power rasing function
[16:53] <mypainter> library
[16:53] <MonkeyDust> !info powf
[16:54] <OneM_Industries> Hi, so I'm trying to mount a drive that is usually in a windows machine, but I am getting an error. I suspect it is because it BSOD'ed repeatedly and was having multiple issues. http://pastebin.com/vHT1RPcz
[16:54] <mypainter> for faster computation time
[16:54] <OneM_Industries> Also, I need to get all data off this drive ASAP, as it is failing rapidly.
[16:54] <pukahey> hi
[16:55] <mypainter> hi <OneM_Industries> can you access it as a drive?
[16:55] <EriC^> OneM_Industries: try sudo mount -o ro /dev/sdc1 /mnt
[16:55] <mypainter> not as a full filesystem mount
[16:55] <pukahey> what linux should i put on a pc 2gb ram, video card- amd hd radeon 6570... i tryied to install ubuntu 14.04 i think once but it freezes at the login cause the video card..
[16:55] <EriC^> pukahey: any will work
[16:55] <EriC^> pukahey: try ubuntu 16.04
[16:56] <pukahey> it's not eating much ram right?
[16:56] <mypainter> +1 yes try ubuntu first
[16:56] <EriC^> 2gb should be ok
[16:56] <pukahey> ok
[16:56] <pukahey> ill try a dual boot :3
[16:56] <mypainter> if you have any issues, try the ubuntu derived xubuntu
[16:57] <tgm4883> mypainter: technically it's a flavor
[16:57] <R13ose> I have YUMI MultiBoot USB running and I want to install Ubuntu, how do I do that with this?
[16:57] <stevenm> is there need for putting 'NEED_IDMAPD=yes' in /etc/default/nfs-common now a redundant one (in 14.04 onwards) as I can see with just nfs-kernel-server installed - that rpc.imapd is running
[16:58] <kara_> names
[16:59] <peyolo> is pci=nomsi a problem ? it seems i have to use that to boot on ubuntu from my computer
[16:59] <kanevbgbe> pawiecki: xeon 5650, 24gb ram, quadro fx 1700
[17:00] <mypainter> tgm4883: is it that one can switch between them with the package system; what is the difference?
[17:01] <tgm4883> mypainter: yes, and they are officially approved
[17:01] <mypainter> ok
[17:01] <tgm4883> mypainter: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFlavors
[17:02] <arght> hello all
[17:03] <arght> sorry to distub you guys knows why when i do an apt update since the morning i have

[17:05] <arght> thx for your help
[17:05] <james1138> Can Banshee 2.9 run community extension 2.4?
[17:06] <k1l_> arght: remove the partner repo from the 3rd party repos in your systemsettings
[17:09] <arght> k1l_ you mean the restricted depot and the ppa of my driver ?
[17:10] <ducasse> stevenm: i _think_ it is needed if you want to run a v3 nfs server, but i'm far from sure.
[17:11] <k1l_> arght: "grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | nc termbin.com 9999"
[17:12] <k1l_> arght: please run that and show the output url in here
[17:13] <kidda> Thank you so much for the help
[17:14] <arght> k1l_: http://termbin.com/dy6q
[17:15] <n0had0> hi, i'm having a problem with locating openGL and im starting to think its maybe not installed
[17:15] <n0had0> or broken
[17:15] <k1l_> arght: remove the "partner" repo there. its already in the official source.list so no need to make an extra entry as 3rd party repo
[17:19] <nbastin> is there a way to emulate a uefi secureboot environment without actually having one?
[17:19] <n0had0> http://pastebin.com/wLWuUE7T
[17:19] <arght> k1l_: that works great thx
[17:20] <ducasse> nbastin: 'apt show ovmf' might give you what you want?
[17:20] <arght> but you know why there is a pb on the partner repository?
[17:20] <Cypher-Punk> Idk where to ask... My 6tb external harddrive came in NTFS, which shouldn't be possible. I want to split it into two partitions and format one half at a time into exFAT because it is about half filled with data. It tells me it's not a recognize filesystem though... What do? (I'm on Windows 7 until I can buy a linux-compatible wifi card for my laptop)
[17:21] <nbastin> ducasse: there's no way to get a guest ubuntu to enforce secure boot module signing and such without actually having a secureboot bios?
[17:21] <ikonia> Cypher-Punk: why is that not possible
[17:21] <ikonia> Cypher-Punk: try the ##windows channel
[17:22] <cscf> Anyone know of a tool to multithread encryption?  Trying to zfs send over ssh and ssh's encryption is a bottleneck
[17:22] <Cypher-Punk> ikonia - lol there's a windows channel? I'll go look
[17:22] <Cypher-Punk> ikonia - oh there is. I'll go there, thanks.
[17:24] <ducasse> nbastin: can ovmf not be used for that?
[17:27] <mikatone> is there any way i can test my fstab before reboot and get hanged by the neck?
[17:27] <ducasse> nbastin: it specifically says 'It includes full support for UEFI, including Secure Boot', so it should work
[17:27] <YankDownUnder> mikatone: sudu mount -a
[17:27] <nbastin> ducasse: no, that has to be used on a vm host to drive an ubuntu guest
[17:27] <nbastin> it can't be installed *in* the guest to convert ubuntu behaviour without changing the vm host
[17:28] <YankDownUnder> mikatone: Sorry - sudo mount -a
[17:28] <nbastin> ducasse: I mean in reality I'm not in a virtual machine, so there's nothing that this can do for me
[17:28] <nbastin> I just want ubuntu to adopt secureboot enforcement behaviour regardless of the bios
[17:29] <ducasse> nbastin: that is not possible, as it requires firmware support
[17:30] <tintin> nick
[17:30] <tintin> quit
[17:30] <k1l_> arght: pb?
[17:31] <arght> k1l_: it works good now but i can't do anymore upgrade from that repository right ?
[17:32] <k1l_> arght: no. you had that repo listed twice. i dont know why you made that repo list file manually. since it is already in the ubuntu sources.list.
[17:32] <k1l_> arght: i guess you followed a crappy howto
[17:33] <arght> oh i see thx
[17:34] <arght> so i just keep that check and delete one of the list source file completly ?
[17:34] <Mrokii> Hello. I have a problem possibly only concerning Kubuntu, but I'm not sure. I have installed Kubuntu 16.04 on a laptop and have tried to copy a large file to a USB stick (about 3 Gig). But the usb stick is dismounted automatically after some minutes, before the copying process is done. I wonder if there is something I can do to prevent this automatic dismounting.
[17:34] <k1l_> no
[17:34] <arght> ah ?
[17:34] <arght> you said that i have 2 lists
[17:35] <k1l_> arght: can you run "grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | nc termbin.com 9999"  again please?
[17:35] <arght> k1l_: http://termbin.com/b7u5
[17:36] <k1l_> arght: you did not change anything?
[17:37] <ioria> arght, this : /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xenial-partner.list   until the end, remove them
[17:38] <arght> k1l_: http://termbin.com/b7u5
[17:38] <k1l_> arght: the partner repo is already included in the "sources.list". but you (somehow) made another repo list in sources.list.d folder with again the same repo. that is wrong and that is what the error is telling you. you cant have that partner repo listed twice
[17:38] <arght> here my last one with the partner unchek in the repository lanager
[17:39] <k1l_> arght: so remove the one partner repo entry.
[17:39] <arght> K1rk: shoud i need to delete the source.list.d ?
[17:39] <ikonia> thats a directory
[17:39] <arght> oki i check that
[17:40] <modp> on Ubuntu 16.04 with Lenovo Ideapad P500, HDMI output to 2560x1440 monitor, but I can't select anything higher than 2048x1152 in Ubuntu. Any fix?
[17:40] <k1l_> arght: no. the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ is a directory. you need to remove that file inside that directory.
[17:40] <arght> i mean i delete one of the list file
[17:41] <arght> k1l_: i found the folder i have 2 file in it xerial partner.list and xerial partner.list.save
[17:41] <k1l_> remove both
[17:42] <arght> oki
[17:44] <mikatone> how to force umount when: device is busy.(In some cases useful info about processes that use the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1))
[17:45] <EriC^> mikatone: are you cd'd into the mounted partition?
[17:45] <mikatone> nope
[17:45] <k1l_> mikatone: sudo lsof /dev/sd....
[17:45] <EriC^> try sudo lsof | grep /mountpoint

[17:47] <sudakshin> nick aswed
[17:52] <YankDownUnder> mikatone: You can try: sudo umount --force /dev/blahblahblah
[17:52] <mikatone> cool
[17:53] <mikatone> nope device busy
[17:53] <mikatone> well this is a davfs2 mountpoint
[17:53] <YankDownUnder> mikatone: Sometimes the "gvs" system is actually accessing the volume(s) - or some other "automount" program/utility
[17:54] <YankDownUnder> mikatone: So how does the "unmountable" device show up using the mount command?
[17:54] <mikatone> I have entry in fstab
[17:55] <mikatone> and mount /mountpoint
[17:55] <YankDownUnder> mikatone: What were you accessing the device with?
[17:55] <arght> k1thx i delete the files and check again the partener repository it works very well now

[18:02] <pukahey> guys i can't install ubuntu 16 :(
[18:03] <teward> pukahey: that's not very useful, perhaps you'd like to elaborate on what issues you're having?
[18:03] <pukahey> same issue i was having with ubuntu 14 :( #amdsucks it's moving like 1fps/hour
[18:03] <pukahey> i think it's because my video card amd 6570 just sucks
[18:06] <cscf> Is there VPN that uses multiple threads to encrypt/decrypt?
[18:09] <tgm4883> pukahey: FWIW, the s in fps is seconds
[18:11] <spacebug^> Is Ubuntus network-manager changed from Debians version? Because in Debian if an interface does not get an IP from a DHCP server in 45 seconds, it timeouts and never tries again. Ubuntu on the other hand does try again, and again, and again. Or is there som other script in Ubuntu that does this?
[18:13] <manabulous> Hi, I've been posting online about some issues I've been having with apt-. Then I got bored of waiting for an answer so I tried to upgrade from a CD and then my system has been stuck at  the same place for about an hour now. How can I fix the upgrade or end it?
[18:14] <saml> what does   deb http://company/  ./  mean ?
[18:14] <saml> the last ./ part in sources.list.d
[18:14] <Comons> Hello, you  nice server irc quakenet org | #philosophy - #apple | web: http://ircmaster.org
[18:15] <BluesKaj> manabulous, trying to upgrade from a cd on an existing install won't work, you have to upgrade from the mirror repositories on the internet
[18:16] <manabulous> So how do I stop the install. It is stuck at
[18:16] <k1l_> saml: that should link to the release used.
[18:16] <manabulous> "saving installed packages"
[18:17] <DeakonFrost686> Hi to all
[18:17] <saml> k1l_, i don't understand
[18:17] <k1l_> manabulous: ctrl+c
[18:17] <k1l_> saml: the ./ would be "xenial" on a ubuntu repo
[18:17] <manabulous> k1l_ It doesn't do anything
[18:18] <k1l_> manabulous: what are you doing there at all exactly?
[18:18] <saml> deb https://github.company.net/project-name/raw/master/wily/ ./      that's in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/project-name.list
[18:18] <saml> should I replace ./  with xenial since i'm using xenial?
[18:19] <BluesKaj> manabulous, suggest you start over , and  make sure you have internet access when installing the OS , make sure you reformat the partition as well
[18:19] <k1l_> saml: i dont know if github works as repo, tbh
[18:19] <saml> there's no github.company.net/project-name/raw/master/xenial
[18:19] <manabulous> k1l_ I acessed the .iso file for 16.04 and then chose upgrade while keeping all my files. Then it got stuck
[18:19] <saml> yah first time seeing github used as repo
[18:19] <manabulous> BluesKaj How do I safely start over. Do I just shutdown the system? (FYI it's a virtual box guest)
[18:19] <Bray90820> Is there a terminal command that can show what partition your kernel is installed on
[18:20] <k1l_> saml: the ./ is the link instead of xenial.
[18:20] <BluesKaj> manabulous, the only way to do that is to have separate / and /home partitions
[18:20] <manabulous> BluesKaj ?
[18:20] <EriC^> Bray90820: df /boot
[18:20] <SCHAAP137> Bray90820: it's generally in /boot, try something like lsblk
[18:20] <saml> ah format is deb URL relativelink1  relativelink2 ?
[18:21] <BluesKaj> ok . a VM , well that's different, just start over and remove the present gueastr OS if it's still there
[18:21] <saml> anyways during apt update, i get 404 not found  https://github.company.net/project-name/raw/master/willy/ ./ Release
[18:21] <k1l_> saml: https://wiki.debian.org/RepositoryFormat
[18:21] <Bray90820> EriC^: Sorry I wanted the gpt number
[18:21] <saml> thanks
[18:22] <manabulous> BluesKaj I've been using this guest since January. If I shutdown the guest will all my files still be there?
[18:22] <EriC^> Bray90820: it should say it in the first column as /dev/sdxY
[18:22] <EriC^> Bray90820: you want hdx,gptY for grub?
[18:22] <manabulous> BluesKaj *If I shut it down while it is stuck
[18:23] <budder> hey everyone, i was just trying to install ubuntu but it froze after I selected the disk partition. i selected to partition 25gb but then it just froze before I hit the final confirmation. i rebooted back into window and just opened disk management and it has 23.25gb unallocated. what does that mean? does that mean it started to partition it? i don't recall if this was there before
[18:23] <BluesKaj> manabulous, don't sht it down , just remove the guest OS cd
[18:24] <Bray90820> EriC^:   no I want the kernel
[18:24] <Bray90820> EriC^: http://pastebin.com/raw/UmzRhp4i
[18:25] <manabulous> BluesKaj, That's what I thought. How do I remove it?
[18:25] <braggit> hello
[18:27] <EriC^> Bray90820: in df if it said /dev/sda4 then in grub it should be hd0,gpt4 usually, anyways in grub you can type ls to get a list of the partitions and check which one is the one you want with ls (hdx,gptY)/boot
[18:27] <BluesKaj> leave the instal by closing the VM, then remove the cd, manabulous
[18:28] <Bray90820> EriC^: The only dev I can find it /dev/mcblk0p2
[18:29] <EriC^> Bray90820: might be hd0,gpt2 then
[18:30] <EriC^> ls in grub will tell you for sure though
[18:30] <manabulous> BluesKaj Do you mean save the state of the machine? There are three options to close it save state, send shutdown signal, power off. I just want to double check
[18:30] <Bray90820> you mean the command line in grub?
[18:30] <Bray90820> edenist:
[18:30] <Bray90820> oops
[18:30] <Bray90820> EriC^:
[18:31] <EriC^> Bray90820: yes
[18:31] <budder> hey guys install froze after i selected to partition 25gb, but i did not get a chance to confirm and finalize. so i force shutdown and restarted back into windows. disk management shows 23.25gb unallocated space. is this related? what should I do now?
[18:32] <BluesKaj> manabulous, there's no point in saving state if the install is stuck, there must be a problem
[18:32] <manabulous> BluesKaj So which option should I choose when closing the VM?
[18:33] <BluesKaj> manabulous, just shut  the VM down , it's not working anyway
[18:33] <Bray90820> EriC^: ls gives me "(hd0) (hd0,gpt3) (hd0,gpt2) hd0,gpt1) (hd1) (hd2)"
[18:34] <saml> apt update hangs. is there a way to apt update but ignore things that are already in cache?  only want to update from newly added /etc/apt/sources.list.d/newfile.list
[18:35] <EriC^> Bray90820: ok, try ls (hd0,gpt2)/
[18:35] <Bray90820> EriC^: Will do
[18:36] <manabulous> BluesKaj I shut it down, now do I go into settings and remove the iso, or what?
[18:41] <saml> how can I apt update ignoring security?
[18:43] <MonkeyDust> !pin | saml start here
[18:43] <k1l_> just let the apt update run.
[18:44] <redbeardt> If my systemd networking.service is failing because "RTNETLINK answers: File exists", is it safe to assume that some other script has gotten in and set run ifup before the systemd unit got to it?
[18:44] <k1l_> saml: if you dont want a repo to be used comment it with a # in front in the sources.list
[18:44] <chesterfobitt> Hi
[18:46] <budder> guys installation got stuck as i selected to partition 25gb. so i rebooted back into windows and now disk management shows 23.25gb unallocated space on drive.
[18:47] <bumblefuzz> I'm routinely getting better than 23-24 hour battery life with Ubuntu MATE... is this right or is the system calculating things wrong
[18:47] <bumblefuzz> ?
[18:48] <tgm4883> bumblefuzz: that would be impossible to answer without knowing specs on your machine/battery
[18:48] <bumblefuzz> ubuntu proper gives me about 8 hour battery life
[18:49] <budder> can anyone advise
[18:49] <BluesKaj> manabulous, return to your Host OS dektop and then remove the cd
[18:49] <bumblefuzz> lenovo x260 with the rounded bottom battery pack
[18:50] <tdiesel> hello
[18:50] <tdiesel> Hello
[18:50] <tdiesel> someone here
[18:50] <Bray90820> EriC^: I don't think (hd0,gpt2) was correct
[18:50] <MonkeyDust> tdiesel  type    /names
[18:51] <bumblefuzz> wut
[18:51] <tdiesel> sorry for log out
[18:52] <bumblefuzz> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh
[18:52] <tdiesel> what
[18:52] <manabulous> BluesKaj Ok, done. The VM seems to be working as before. Thank you!
[18:52] <bumblefuzz> millions of logouts...
[18:52] <EriC^> Bray90820: try gpt3
[18:52] <tdiesel> yes
[18:53] <BluesKaj> manabulous, what is the guest OS
[18:53] <tdiesel> i will clear text
[18:54] <tdiesel> hello
[18:54] <saml> so this is company repo. I see Release file but no Release.gpg  or InRelease
[18:54] <manabulous> BluesKaj I also have problem with using apt-get update or upgrade or install. It says that there is an internal error and that "the package linux-headers-3.13.0-92 needs to be reinstalled but I cant find an archive for it" I don't know if you have a quick fix for this or if I should come back when I have more time
[18:54] <manabulous> BluesKaj It is 14.04 Ubuntu
[18:55] <tdiesel> vhfjghfjufhthvhfbukibkmjfud
[18:55] <ioria> !info linux-headers-3.13.0-92  trusty
[18:56] <tdiesel> what
[18:56] <MonkeyDust> tdiesel  stop
[18:56] <tdiesel> ok
[18:56] <BluesKaj> manabulous, are you familiar with apt or apt-get in the terminal?
[18:56] <tdiesel> I will log out
[18:57] <manabulous> BluesKaj yes, that's what I usually use to install new packages or get updates
[18:58] <manabulous> BluesKaj Now it seems to be missing a header and I don't know how to fix that
[18:58] <Neomex> i downloaded application that is an archive, how do i install it?
[18:59] <Sweepyoface> doesn't mint suck right now or something?
[18:59] <Sweepyoface> I forget the reason
[18:59] <ioria> Neomex, what is that ?
[18:59] <BluesKaj> manabulous, that's a kernel update/upgrade, sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
[18:59] <Neomex> ioria pycharm
[19:02] <squinty> Neomex, installation details are shown @ https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/index.html#section=linux
[19:03] <ioria> Neomex, is that a tar.gz ?
[19:04] <ioria> Neomex,  if yes, just tar xfz pycharm-xxxx-xx-tar.gz   and then rad the README, you probably have to run a script
[19:04] <ioria> *read
[19:07] <saml> where do i put Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories ?
[19:08] <manabulous> BluesKaj Still gives me the same error...
[19:08] <OneM_Industries> Ok, so the HUD is broken.
[19:08] <OneM_Industries> I can type stuff in, but when I try to click on it, it clicks on whatever is behind the HUD.
[19:14] <saml> I created /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00allowinsecure   with  Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories "true";   but apt update still does not work on insecure repo
[19:18] <BluesKaj> manabulous, http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/canonical_kernel_team/precise/main/base/linux-headers-3.13.0-92-generic
[19:19] <CacheMoney> what syntax would I use for grep ignore any line that does not have a number
[19:19] <CacheMoney> to*
[19:19] <BluesKaj> manabulous, nevermind it's the wrong repos
[19:21] <EriC^> CacheMoney: | grep -v [0-9]

[19:27] <ivo34> hello this is my mobo: Asrock n68c-gsfx and this is my graphics card: geforce gtx 750ti and this my monitor:LG flatron L204WT-FS I am using ubuntu 14.o4.5LTS and struggling to get to hear sound with some applications.
[19:27] <ivo34> I installed pavucontrol
[19:27] <ivo34> there I can see a combo to switch from analogic to hdmi
[19:27] <ivo34> but it is not working
[19:27] <manabulous> BluesKaj Thanks, I've got to go, but I'll check out the link
[19:27] <BluesKaj> ivo34, which apps don't have sound?
[19:27] <ivo34> is there an easy way to tell my system I am not using hdmi for sound???
[19:28] <ivo34> ue4
[19:28] <ivo34> it only would work with hdmi speakers
[19:28] <ivo34> I tested that
[19:29] <ivo34> pavucontrol wont let me switch to analogic for ue4 despite being listed
[19:29] <dekonfrost686> hi to all
[19:29] <BluesKaj> ivo34, you have to set the audio output device in pavucontrol to something other than hdmi, perhaps analog
[19:31] <ivo34> BluesKaj,  the only other option available is Earphones?!!!
[19:31] <BluesKaj> ivo34, open alsamixer in the terminal , F6 , choose the soundcard inbstead of hdmi
[19:32] <BluesKaj> ivo34, esacpe, then sudo alsactl store
[19:32] <ivo34> done
[19:32] <ivo34> I ll test ue4 now
[19:33] <ivo34> well not now...
[19:33] <ivo34> it takes too long  to open and I need to go...
[19:33] <ivo34> i ll give you feedback other day
[19:33] <ivo34> thanks anyway

[19:40] <ioria> Jan\, not advisable , but  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutoLogin
[19:41] <energizer1> I have two different monitors with different resolutions
[19:41] <energizer1> Is it possible to scale them separately?
[19:42] <redbeardt> Da fuq. I swear I purged wicd and it's still running!
[19:43] <MonkeyDust> redbeardt  run this     sudo apt install aptitude && sudo aptitude purge ~c
[19:46] <redbeardt> MonkeyDust: What's the ~c do?
[19:47] <redbeardt> Looks a bit dangerous given that it doesn't even have the word 'wicd' in the command, but it has purge. ;)
[19:47] <ioria> redbeardt, wicd has a daemon wicd-daemon , you need autoremove
[19:49] <redbeardt> ioria: I did an autoremove though
[19:49] <redbeardt> ioria: I can see the wicd packages under dpkg --get-selections
[19:49] <ioria> redbeardt, yes, as 'ii' or 'rc'
[19:50] <ioria> redbeardt, sorry, dpkg -l | grep wicd
[19:50] <MonkeyDust> redbeardt  it purges not-completely-purged files, i've been using it for two years now
[19:50] <redbeardt> ii
[19:51] <ioria> redbeardt,  are you sure you purged ?
[19:51] <redbeardt> ioria: yep
[19:52] <ioria> redbeardt,  try again sudo apt-get purge wicd (and paste output) or do what MonkeyDust suggested
[19:52] <MonkeyDust> redbeardt  "match removed but not purged packages ~c" ... https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch02.en.html
[19:54] <redbeardt> MonkeyDust: The issue with me running that is that I don't recall whether there were packages I earlier removed but don't want the configurations and so forth of removed
[19:55] <redbeardt> ioria: Package 'wicd' is not installed, so not removed
[19:55] <MonkeyDust> redbeardt  the config files in /home stay untouched
[19:55] <redbeardt> I suppose I could just remove it with dpkg..
[19:55] <redbeardt> Oh
[19:56] <ioria> redbeardt,ps -A | grep wicd
[19:56] <MonkeyDust> redbeardt  yes, or with aptitude purge
[19:56] <redbeardt> wicd and wicd-monitor are running
[19:57] <ioria> !info  wicd-monitor
[19:57] <redbeardt> 82 packages listed by that command, MonkeyDust :O
[19:58] <anonV> Yo possies, anyone knows why when my VM is running i have some problems with sound
[19:58] <anonV> it gets noisy
[19:58] <redbeardt> MonkeyDust: Oh. Wicd isn't even listed.
[19:59] <TheAmorphous> Hey guys, another 14.04 refugee here.  Can someone give me a quick rundown of what exactly I need to do to back up an existing 14.04 installation before attempting the 16.04 update?  It seems like some pretty massive changes...
[20:00] <ioria> redbeardt, how did you install it ?
[20:01] <Cypher-Punk> Not sure what the heck usb wifi antenna to buy on amazon.
[20:01] <redbeardt> ioria: With apt!
[20:01] <ioria> redbeardt, sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove wicd-daemon
[20:02] <jessejames> I have problem with a proprietary driver for Nvidia Gtx 1070. My computer hangs itself all the time when using proprietary drivers, iv tried both stable and beta version but only the Nouveau driver works and it can recognize my GPU
[20:02] <jessejames> it cant recognize my GPU, so it kinda sucks
[20:03] <cscf> jessejames, have you tried the nvidia-367 from the driver team PPA?  That's what I needed for my 1060
[20:03] <jessejames> cscf yes i have
[20:04] <cscf> jessejames, what does dmesg/syslog say when it hangs?  Does the kernel hang or just video output?
[20:04] <redbeardt> ioria: Oh, that did something
[20:04] <redbeardt> ioria: Ah they're no longer running and they're also gone from dpkg --get-selections. That was the winner.
[20:05] <ioria> redbeardt, that's good
[20:05] <jessejames> how do i read from the Dmesg/syslog?
[20:05] <redbeardt> ioria: sorry apparently my wifi dropped out upon removing wicd heh
[20:05] <ioria> redbeardt, ^_^
[20:08] <Cypher-Punk> Anyone know a usb wifi antenna that's compatible on multiple operating systems? BSD, Linux and Windows?
[20:09] <k1l> !hcl | Cypher-Punk try a look there
[20:09] <redbeardt> Now back to my main issue of figuring out what's putting up my wifi interface before the systemd unit gets to it
[20:13] <marlax1g> ct
[20:15] <initram>  initinit
[20:17] <tripelb> ok question. i want to install ubuntu Or chroton on this cloudbook: acer aspire one 11 (windows 10. 32G ssd) -- need to ask (where?) if I can upgrade the ssd) the chromebook similar only has 16G.
[20:18] <daynaskully> it may be chip based ssd and not your typical "hard drive" ss
[20:18] <daynaskully> but idk
[20:19] <redbeardt> Damn..  Seems like a toughie.
[20:20] <redbeardt> syslog has nothing on it
[20:22] <k1l> redbeardt: "before systemd"?
[20:23] <redbeardt> k1l: systemd has a unit called networking.service that's supposed to handle the raising of network interfaces, and that unit is failing on my system because something else is raising them first
[20:25] <daynaskully> redbeardt, so if u turn off all networking and bring it up. does it work manually?
[20:26] <vivid> anyone have an idea where the XMODIFIERS env is being set?  ive set my input method to none using the GUI, but echo $XMODIFIERS still returns @im=ibus, which is causing some games to crash on XOpenIM()
[20:26] <daynaskully> cuz i just spent an hour messing with networkign and running back/forth to the dc only to realize i was configuring bridges for eth0 when i was plugged into eth1
[20:27] <redbeardt> daynaskully, I can't remember the commands to get it going manually, but surely if I turn off the inteface network-manager it won't work anymore :p
[20:28] <gahan> Hi. I have "AppArmor Message" that just won't disappear. What can I do?
[20:29] <redbeardt> Oh hell there's a unit right at the top that is simply named to raise my wifi interface. I must have a bloody systemd unit months ago and forgot!
[20:30] <k1l> redbeardt: yeah, i was asking if you changed something there. because that doesnt sound standard setup
[20:31] <redbeardt> k1l: indeed :p a default systemd unit failing certainly indicates as such.. Anyway, now to find out how I configured this unit and to get rid of it.
[20:32] <nicomachus> hi, lately I've been getting odd scroll behavior in chrome on a few different sites -- but not all. I can scroll a couple lines down, and then it will suddenly just start auto-scrolling very quickly to the bottom of the page. So there's no way for me to see the content. :/
[20:32] <nicomachus> different scrolling methods all produce the same behavior. Arrow keys, mouse wheel, page down/up, and just mouse clicking the scroll bar.
[20:34] <gahan> m
[20:41] <golem> hi
[20:42] <golem> i need a game recordind sistem for ubuntu
[20:43] <V7> golem: ?

[20:43] <V7> Game recording ?!
[20:44] <golem> yes
[20:44] <V7> System o.o ?!

[20:49] <mikatone> hi everything i throw at rc.local gets executed after network mounts and apache right?
[20:49] <mikatone> I mean network, mounts...
[20:51] <molan> can i get some help with ubuntu?
[20:51] <abaldygl3> What kind of help?
[20:52] <molan> so im running my pc off of a dual boot but ubuntu doesnt like my wifi card
[20:52] <nicomachus> what's the wifi card?
[20:52] <nicomachus> chipset number, if you have it.
[20:52] <molan> i have the drivers but i cant install them into linux because i cant boot in
[20:52] <molan> 7265
[20:52] <nicomachus> that's not the chipset.
[20:52] <nicomachus> are you in ubuntu now?
[20:52] <molan> oh my bad
[20:52] <molan> no im in windows arm
[20:52] <k1l> the intel card? does it need drivers at all? that should work with the kernel, right?
[20:53] <nicomachus> k1l: it should.
[20:53] <elliot-59> hey guys, i have a weird process from user debian-tor, cant kill it, and the summon command says runasdaemon... wtf is going on
[20:53] <k1l> molan: so you are on arm architecture, which is a difference in some was.
[20:53] <molan> it does need drivers it gives me a unsupported splx structure
[20:53] <nicomachus> elliot-59: are you running Tor?
[20:54] <elliot-59> not at the moment
[20:54] <nicomachus> but it is installed?
[20:54] <elliot-59> yeah
[20:55] <elliot-59> its just weird i cant kill it, and im not running tor right now
[20:55] <nicomachus> elliot-59: it autostarts as a daemon, meaning that it runs in the background. You can go to /etc/default/tor and change RUN_DAEMON="yes" to RUN_DAEMON="no"
[20:55] <molan> also im getting this error: cant request region for resource [mem 0xfed40080-0xfed40fff]
[20:56] <molan> on boot
[20:56] <mikatone> I want to execute a script after apache starts can i put it on rc.local ?
[20:56] <sankar> Hello
[20:56] <nicomachus> elliot-59: alternatively, you can run "sudo systemctl disable tor.service" from terminal.
[20:56] <mikatone> I suspect so but can I?
[20:56] <mikatone> anybody?
[20:56] <nicomachus> elliot-59: that second option is assuming you're on 15.04 or later, with Systemd instead of upstart.
[20:57] <elliot-59> im on 16.04
[20:57] <nicomachus> ok, then it should work just fine.
[20:58] <molan> im getting this error on boot any ideas?: cant request region for resource [mem 0xfed40080-0xfed40fff]
[20:58] <sankar> Hello, Can any one point me right direction please, issue with GRUB Boot loader
[20:59] <cike> почему критическая ошибка выскакивает на свежей 16,04 LTS?
[20:59] <elliot-59> nicomachus: nope, process still there, cant be killed
[20:59] <elliot-59> im gonna reboot see if that helps brb
[20:59] <genii> !ru | cike
[20:59] <paranoidabhi> HI
[21:00] <paranoidabhi> I am a new to open-source and linux in general. I tried my hands at project. If possible can someone give feedback.
[21:00] <nicomachus> elliot-59: ok, did you try editing the /etc/ file?
[21:00] <elliot-59> yeah
[21:00] <elliot-59> changed it to no
[21:01] <k1l> paranoidabhi: i guess that better suits into #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:01] <nicomachus> paranoidabhi: try in #ubuntu-offtopic or even ##linux
[21:01] <paranoidabhi> Posting link: https://github.com/abhigenie92/unattended_upgrades_repos . Please have a look:)
[21:01] <notbob> Hi
[21:01] <paranoidabhi> nicomachus, okay thanks
[21:01] <notbob> Well.... what OS are you using??
[21:02] <gamer> hi
[21:02] <notbob> BackBox any1??
[21:02] <notbob> any1 got BackBox??
[21:02] <Bray90820> EriC^: You prob have no idea what's going on but it turns out it actually is 0,2 but still won't boot correctly
[21:02] <k1l> !backbox | notbob
[21:02] <molan> can anyone help me with the error: cant request region for resource [mem 0xfed40080-0xfed40fff] after trying to boot ubuntu?
[21:03] <TheNH813> How do I FORCE wine to ALWAYS use pulseaudio. It always uses the wrong soundcard every time I reopen a program with alsa. I need it to route through pulseaudio.
[21:04] <TheNH813> Having over 5 sound input devices dosen't help, but there has to be a way to make it use pulseaudio.  XD
[21:05] <notbob> lol
[21:06] <molan> ubuntu has been giving me a headache for the past 3 days
[21:06] <Bray90820> Is it posable that nomodeset would have to be set after install of ubuntu but not on the live disk
[21:06] <TheNH813> Yup
[21:06] <Bray90820> TheNH813: Why is that
[21:07] <molan> SHIT THAT MIGHT BE WHAT IM NOT DOING
[21:07] <TheNH813> The LiveCD uses VES I think, which dosen't have problems bu lacks acceleratioon
[21:07] <TheNH813> *VESA
[21:07] <paranoidabhi> My project(short code) aims at making automatic upgrading simpler. I found no relevant ones that did it. If you are looking for make auto upgrading, have a look. :D
[21:07] <TheNH813> When ti does the configure hardware thing it sets the right driverf
[21:07] <molan> ok so where would i put nomodeset after installing?
[21:07] <TheNH813> Into /etc/default/grub.cfg
[21:07] <sankar> link please paranoidabhi
[21:08] <TheNH813> Find the commandlane linux line and add nomodeset to the end
[21:08] <k1l> molan: nomodeset is not common on arm hardware. its more for pc hardware
[21:08] <molan> oh i cant boot past grub
[21:08] <Bray90820> TheNH813: well then maybe you can tell me why the live disk boots past try ubuntu without installing like 1 out of 10 times
[21:08] <paranoidabhi> sankar, https://github.com/abhigenie92/unattended_upgrades_repos :)
[21:08] <k1l> molan: what arm hardware is that?
[21:08] <molan> i had to use nomodeset to even get to install
[21:09] <molan> kil: how do i check?
[21:09] <k1l> paranoidabhi: this is offtopic in here. no further warning.
[21:09] <k1l> molan: what hardware do you use?
[21:09] <TheNH813> Bray90820: Oh no, are you using ancient integrated AMD or Intel graphics?
[21:09] <sankar> will check it out
[21:09] <molan> im using a asus Gl552vw
[21:09] <paranoidabhi> k1l, ok. thanks for pointing it out.
[21:09] <paranoidabhi> sankar, sure
[21:09] <molan> i7-6700hq gtx960m
[21:10] <Bray90820> TheNH813: Intel HD Graphics (Atom Processor Z36xxx/Z37xxx Series Graphics & Display)
[21:10] <k1l> molan: that is no arm hardware. why did you say its arm hardware?
[21:10] <molan> i did?
[21:10] <TheNH813> Bray90820: I'l look up the correct option
[21:10] <molan> my bad
[21:10] <k1l> molan: so that sounds like you need nomodeset for booting and then isntall the nvidia driver
[21:11] <k1l> !nomodeset | molan
[21:11] <Bray90820> TheNH813: I have a correct install of ubuntu 16.04 but i need to use nomodeset to boot it
[21:11] <molan> thanks guys!
[21:11] <TheNH813> Bray90820: Is the display at the right resolution?
[21:12] <redbeardt> k1l: so about those systemd units I mentioned earlier. There's no way I wrote that other unit and I have no idea why it's there. Somehow I ended up with two systemd units trying to put up my network interfaces. :| I just disabled one of them and all is well. Still, bizarre.
[21:13] <Bray90820> TheNH813: Yes
[21:14] <TheNH813> Do you have the latest version of Mesa and the Intel driver installed (xorg intel).
[21:16] <Bray90820> TheNH813: I don't think so How would I install the stuff in this xorg folder
[21:16] <Bray90820> https://github.com/burzumishi/linux-baytrail-flexx10
[21:18] <TheNH813> One secons
[21:21] <TheNH813> Bray90820: Almost got it
[21:22] <Bray90820> TheNH813: Just Let me know
[21:25] <TheNH813> sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri libegl1-mesa-lts-xenial
[21:25] <TheNH813> Bray90820: sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri libegl1-mesa libglapi-mesa libgles1-mesa libgles2-mesa mesa-utils
[21:26] <TheNH813> Ignore the first one
[21:26] <TheNH813> That should reinstall (or install) and configure mesa
[21:26] <Bray90820> What do you mean ignore the first one?
[21:26] <TheNH813> I pasted two lines
[21:26] <Bray90820> Oh yea you id
[21:26] <Bray90820> I get you now
[21:28] <Bray90820> Should i then not need to boot with nomodeset?
[21:29] <Bray90820> TheNH813: should I then not need to boot with nomodeset?
[21:32] <Bray90820> TheNH813: I need to get going for now but have a look at this this is what I am supposedly suppose to do for my specific device but I couldn't get it working  http://pastebin.com/raw/UmzRhp4i
[21:33] <Bray90820> The other code you gave me didn't seem to work
[21:37] <transhuman> Hi I read something about radeon R5 internal to cpu video card can use an intel driver is that right? for ubuntu 16.04?
[21:38] <TheNH813> Bray90820: What did it say?
[21:38] <Jan\> is there a way lubuntu can remember the sudo password for the session ? seems like I have to type the password a lot
[21:39] <TheNH813> sudo -i
[21:39] <tgm4883> Jan\: I believe it should remember it for 15 minutes
[21:39] <tgm4883> by default
[21:39] <Bray90820> it didn't say anything it just booted to a blank screen like I needed nomodeset
[21:39] <Bray90820> TheNH813:
[21:41] <Jan\> tgm4883: how do I change it to session by default ?
[21:41] <bray90820_> The install seemed to work properly tho
[21:41] <tgm4883> Jan\: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudoTimeout
[21:41] <TheNH813> bray90820_: May need a more obscure v ideo otpion. I'l lok it up
[21:42] <bray90820_> Ok i'm not at my tablet so i cant test anything out
[21:43] <rpg> I'm interested in making an Ubuntu derivative for a class I am teaching. I'd like to use UCK, but I need to supply some software that can't be installed with apt-get. Is this possible?
[21:43] <rpg> By Ubuntu derivative, I mean a bootable CD.
[21:44] <TheNH813> bray90820_: Try using these boot options: nomodeset noaccel=true xforcevesa
[21:45] <bray90820_> TheNH813 did you look at the xorg link i sent you
[21:46] <TheNH813> The github link?
[21:47] <ajikny> tomreyn: there?
[21:47] <Lauras> Hello, what different between "sudo apt install -y php" and without -y, don't need confirm..?
[21:47] <ajikny> tomreyn: pm?
[21:48] <MonkeyDust> Lauras  -y means yes
[21:48] <TheNH813> bray90820_: Actually, I have another option I want to add: nomodeset noaccel=true xforcevesa intel_pstate=disabled
[21:48] <Lauras> understand, thank you
[21:48] <TheNH813> bray90820_: Try that. I will likely boot with those options.
[21:49] <Solarlux3> WHat is neo account?
[21:49] <Solarlux3> in linux?
[21:49] <k1l> Lauras: on single package install there is no question to be answered. but if it will install several pacakges it will ask and halt if you dont answer
[21:49] <bray90820__> I will when i get home
[21:49] <Solarlux3> what neo means?
[21:49] <bray90820__> TheNH813 i will try that when I get home but did you look at the xorg stuff i sent you
[21:50] <TheNH813> The github link?
[21:50] <energizer> Does anybody know how to configure a vpn client?
[21:50] <abaldygl3> Lauras:  easy then to write a script such as     sudo apt update sudo apt install -y dkms sudo apt install -y build-essential for instance on a new install
[21:50] <MonkeyDust> !vpn | energizer start here
[21:51] <Zeranoe> So Ubuntu/Linux doesn't support 'inherent' folder permissions?
[21:51] <Lauras> Ok Guys, i just want know or i think right, thanks
[21:51] <tomreyn> ajikny: hi, what's up?
[21:51] <TheNH813> bray90820__:  Do you mean the github link and pastebin?
[21:51] <Lauras> i just couple things run on server and i leave it alone
[21:51] <bray90820__> The gethub yes
[21:52] <bray90820__> TheNH813 the gethub yes
[21:52] <TheNH813> Yeah, use the kernel boot options it says and add the "nomodeset noaccel=true xforcevesa intel_pstate=disabled" to the end of it. That way it can boot up at least and you can follow the tutorial on that GitHub page.
[21:52] <jfcaron> I hate how you can't scroll a pdf with the print dialog open, if you want to look for specific pages to print.  I have to write the page numbers on a piece of paper.
[21:53] <jfcaron> C'mon computers.
[21:53] <TheNH813> jfcaron: Install Foxit Reader. It ahs a print preview
[21:53] <bray90820__> TheNH813 well it already boots with nomodeset
[21:54] <TheNH813> I'd follow that guide then if it boots. The other options may help if the graphics act buggy.
[21:54] <MonkeyDust> jfcaron  writing on a piece of paper, how old-skool!     sarcastic mode off
[21:55] <jfcaron> I could write the numbers in a text editor but that's even more awkward.
[21:56] <TheNH813> Ah, sorry. Guess Foxit discontinued the Linux version.
[21:56] <jfcaron> Speaking of awkward, ever typed the word "awkward"?
[21:56] <TheNH813> That is a wierd word to spell
[21:57] <YankDownUnder>  "weird" not "wierd".
[21:57] <jfcaron> Etymologically looks like "person who protects the awk on behalf of the king".
[21:57] <jfcaron> Like woodward.
[21:57] <bray90820__> TheNH813how would I install the stuff in the xorg folder from gethub
[21:58] <rpg> jfcaron: No, it's "in the direction of the auk," but uses a variant spelling of auk.
[21:58] <jfcaron> The bird?
[21:58] <rpg> jfcaron: Indeed!
[21:59] <jfcaron> What an aukward way to describe a direction.
[21:59] <rpg> As in "windward, leeward, and awkward."
[21:59] <jfcaron> I mean, what if the auk moves?
[21:59] <rpg> So does the wind!
[21:59] <jfcaron> Oh it's a situational direction, I see.
[21:59] <TheNH813> bray90820__: Copy it to the right folder, I think. Xorg stores stuff in /usr/share/xorg
[22:00] <rpg> jfcaron: Can you tell there's something more important I don't want to be doing?
[22:00] <jfcaron> ^_^ I'm reading a boring paper from 1997.
[22:00] <TheNH813> That's a good year. I was born then.
[22:00] <TheNH813> XD
[22:00] <TheNH813> bray90820__: It says right in the folder for xorg on github. "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"
[22:01] <TheNH813> If that's what oyu meant
[22:01] <jfcaron> quote:  "approximately 1.5x10^14 stopped muons, and about 5x10^8 events written to tape."  TAPE
[22:01] <jfcaron> My boss has boxes and boxes of tapes in the lab.  We have no machines to read them.
[22:02] <riverswood> Is it safe to delete the hidden folders to fix problems in home folder?
[22:02] <jfcaron> riverswood: You might lose settings, save games, things like that.
[22:03] <bray90820__> TheNH813 So just replace Xorg folder with Xorg folder?
[22:05] <TheNH813> Put the files from https://github.com/burzumishi/linux-baytrail-flexx10/tree/master/xorg/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d into /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/
[22:05] <TheNH813> Don't delete anything that's already there. You also might want to see if there's a discussion forum thread on this topic somewhere.
[22:06] <TheNH813> Sorry if I multi posted, my IRC reconnected about 5 times, and I ahve no idea what it sent.
[22:06] <ajikny> i have an intersting problem to solve. I just upgraded the server form ubuntu 12.04 to 14.04. As soon as the upgrade got over, which went smooth,
[22:06] <ajikny> After the reboot the keyboard and mouse stopped working.
[22:06] <ajikny> After the reboot the keyboard and *network stopped working
[22:06] <ajikny> so i neither i can ssh into the server nor can i type anything.
[22:06] <ajikny> What can i do??
[22:07] <TheNH813> Shouldn't be running the MEGA.nz sync while using IRC. My upload is bad enough as it is. XDDD
[22:09] <lordcirth> ajikny, you could try booting to recovery from Grub.
[22:09] <bray90820__> TheNH813if you could send the message again and ping me this time that would be great
[22:10] <TheNH813> bray90820__: Put the files from https://github.com/burzumishi/linux-baytrail-flexx10/tree/master/xorg/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d into /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/
[22:10] <TheNH813> Don't delete anything that's already there. You also might want to see if there's a discussion forum thread on this topic somewhere.
[22:11] <bray90820__> Thanks
[22:11] <bray90820__> Ill try it out when i get home
[22:11] <TheNH813> You're welcome.
[22:12] <JAY6390> Hi everyone. does anyone know how I can re-install apt itself?
[22:13] <Jan\> dont you just want to reset apt config ?
[22:13] <JAY6390> er… no lol
[22:13] <JAY6390> Doing an upgrade on a 10.04.4 lts server
[22:13] <JAY6390> or trying
[22:13] <JAY6390> and it’s removed a crap ton of packages
[22:13] <JAY6390> including apache, apt etc
[22:14] <JAY6390> so I need to install apt again so I can re-install those
[22:14] <TheNH813> bray90820__: Just a heads up, the instructions mention compiling a new kernel.
[22:14] <bray90820__> In the kernel folder?
[22:15] <JAY6390> Jan\: apt-get
[22:15] <JAY6390> -bash: /usr/bin/apt-get: No such file or directory
[22:15] <TheNH813> bray90820: They have a special config to compile a kernel with. I think it's optional though.
[22:15] <TheNH813> As well as cutom patches
[22:16] <Jan\> JAY6390: hey don't ask me for support, i was just asking
[22:16] <TheNH813> bray90820__: But that's not an easy task at all. IF you can get it working without, I'd reccommend that.
[22:16] <JAY6390> Oh OK sorry Jan\ I thought you knew :)
[22:16] <bray90820__> Alright
[22:17] <bray90820__> I'll try it when i get home thanks
[22:17] <TheNH813> bray90820__: Start with trying the reccommend configs and drivers installed. If you need to compile a kernel, I reccommend getting help on a forum that deals with that kind of thing.
[22:17] <Neytiri> hi i am truing to make a USB install drive from my system and i keep getting the error "An uncaught exception was raised: Invalid version string 'GNU/Linux'"
[22:17] <TheNH813> bray90820__ all goes well. I wish you the best of luck.
[22:17] <bray90820__> TheNH813 thanks
[22:18] <Jan\> how do I make lubuntu scroll-bar wider ?
[22:19] <YankDownUnder> Jan\: That's a "theme" thingo.
[22:19] <Jan\> YankDownUnder: yeah how do I change it ?
[22:19] <YankDownUnder> Jan\: Change the theme...? That would be in the settings, preferences, appearance...
[22:20] <Jan\> lubuntu uses lxde ?
[22:20] <TheNH813> Jan\: You could make a copy of the default theme, or anther theme you like, edit the scroll bar icon, and install the theme.
[22:20] <Jan\> YankDownUnder: I said LUBUNTU
[22:20] <YankDownUnder> Jan\: LUbuntu = LxDE + Ubuntu
[22:20] <TheNH813> I think there's a folder with LXDE's themes. You could copy one to a new named folder, and edit the icons to your content.
[22:20] <Jan\> ok
[22:21] <TheNH813> Or just download a theme with a larger scroll bar
[22:22] <Jan\> YankDownUnder: where is settings ? all I see is preferences from the left menu on the taskbar
[22:22] <kante> hi @all, I recovered many deleted files with photorec, now I have many ecryptfs files. how do I decrypt them?
[22:22] <Jan\> there is no appearance shortcut either
[22:23] <arght> hello
[22:24] <YankDownUnder> Jan\: http://lubuntuhowto.blogspot.com.au/2016/02/how-to-change-themes-on-lubuntu.html
[22:24] <arght> did you guys know how we can list all the files in a folder recursively plz ?
[22:24] <Jan\> YankDownUnder: ah great! ty
[22:24] <danny_> Is it possible to get the ask toolbar on linux?
[22:24] <arght> i would like to apply some changes on all my files that is in a folder and there is plenty of folders inside
[22:25] <YankDownUnder> arght: "tree"
[22:26] <YankDownUnder> danny_: "On linux" - you do mean in your browser...right? And you're aware that it's "adware", right?
[22:26] <craigbass76> I was trying to configure mysql while someone else had logged in and tried installing phpmyadmin. So, we're hosed. I'm removed mysql-server by apt purge mysql-server, reinstalled. Nothing. rm -rf both /etc/mysql and /var/lib/mysq* THEN apt-get remove mysql-server, and still when I run the uninstall I get prompted to enter a new root mysql pass, almost like it's installing.
[22:26] <craigbass76> How to I get back to zero
[22:27] <danny_> YankDownUnder, Java usually took care of giving it to me on windows.  It doesn't appear to be in the repos either
[22:27] <danny_> at this point its just tradition
[22:28] <YankDownUnder> danny_: Have fun with that.
[22:28] <danny_> YankDownUnder, I'll probably just run ie through wine and try to put it on that
[22:28] <danny_> or a vm
[22:30] <tgm4883> wait. Someone actually wants the ask toolbar O_o
[22:30] <craigbass76> And... after also apt purge removing mysql-server-5.xx, when I reinstall mysql-server I get prompted to set the root mysql pass three times. Eh?
[22:31] <craigbass76>  mysql-server-core-5.7 was another package I uninstalled.
[22:33] <riverswood> jfcaron but its safe if you just did a fresh install and the backup restored the hidden folders too... I guess if you don't want the old settings and start new then it is safe right?
[22:34] <jfcaron> riverswood: Yes, in that case it should be safe.
[22:34] <riverswood> cool
[22:35] <riverswood> I already did it just wanted to make sure
[22:35] <riverswood> I noticed my video players were choppy playing with the old settings too
[22:35] <riverswood> now since I removed it since I want to start out fresh the video it working great now
[22:38] <L72g5sSq> Let's say I have some USB device and some Python program using it via the PyUSB core library. I want to make the program usign the device to check if any other process is using the device. How can I check this? The PyUSB library uses libusb. Is there a file that linux opens for writing when the device is in use?
[22:43] <idententy__> hello
[22:44] <idententy__> someone is here
[22:44] <idententy__> leaving
[22:44] <lordcirth> idententy__, why?
[22:44] <lordcirth> !ask | idententy__
[22:45] <idententy__> im trying hex chat
[22:45] <idententy__> hexchat
[22:48] <emersont1_> Hi
[22:48] <idententy__> hi
[22:49] <idententy__> emersont1
[22:49] <emersont1_> is there any practical difference between installing Ubuntu 1604 server and installing XFCE and installing Xubuntu?
[22:51] <lordcirth> emersont1_, if you install the xubuntu-desktop package, not just XFCE, they should be similar.  But I imagine you'll be missing a few packages that Xubuntu ships.
[22:51] <idententy__> well for me is all have vantages and devantages sorry for my bad english but yes is a diference
[22:51] <idententy__> yes bassicly
[22:51] <emersont1_> right, is the ubuntu server install graphical or CLI?
[22:52] <idententy__> i dont no
[22:52] <OerHeks> xubuntu has an additional set of packages and customizations to make the xfce experience more rich
[22:52] <emersont1_> are they worth it?
[22:53] <idententy__> yes is this but have vantages and devantages
[22:53] <idententy__> well i have to leave
[22:55] <emersont1_> are there any packages ubuntu server comes with that i won't need?
[22:56] <Rarrikins> emersont1_: That's hard to tell. We don't know what you need.
[22:56] <OerHeks> maybe a few bytes, those does not bother me
[22:56] <Rarrikins> emersont1_: If you want, you can install Ubuntu Core, then add what you need, though that takes a lot of time and patience.
[22:57] <emersont1_> normal libraries for SSH and C++ Development (GCC, git, SSH &C)
[22:59] <emersont1_> is "snappy" the ubuntu core you speak of?
[22:59] <Rarrikins> emersont1_: No, it's Ubuntu with just the command line.
[22:59] <Rarrikins> emersont1_: Not even the server stuff.
[23:00] <vbotka> emersont1_, if you need a desktop Xubuntu is good choice. I use it over 3 years. Otherwise it's flexible.
[23:00] <emersont1_> Rarrikins: my point is, where do i download it
[23:00] <Rarrikins> emersont1_: Let me see.
[23:00] <vbotka> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors
[23:01] <tgm4883> !mini
[23:03] <emersont1_> but the installation isn't as complex as arch?
[23:03] <linux> Hi
[23:09] <romrider7> Hi all... have just d-loaded and installed schrew soft vpn UI.. what to do next is unknown to me just now.. I need some data from (?) to enter into this client for it to work.. pse give some tips/assistance...[p.s. have been being screwed around a fair bit on win10 the last few weeks and so have switched to 16.04 and need to use a vpn for sure.]
[23:09] <lordcirth> emersont1_, minimal is simpler than Arch, yes.  Not that Arch is that complex if you have the checklist open
[23:11] <lordcirth> romrider7, what data does it want, other than the obvious connection details?
[23:11] <OerHeks> romrider7, sure there is a manual where you downloaded that package
[23:12] <romrider7> OerHeks: please point me to the manual.. (I am war disabled with no name-memory.. makes things real difficult some times..)
[23:12] <lordcirth> romrider7, https://www.shrew.net/support/Main_Page
[23:13] <romrider7> lordcirth: those connection details is what I am after..
[23:13] <romrider7> thanks so much you guys/gals..
[23:14] <abaldygl3> romrider7:  Your connection details will come from the admin of the system you are attempting to connect to.
[23:24] <romrider7> abaldygl3: what I am looking for is a trustworthy vpn provider (needs to be free-of-charge right now cos a few days back during a somewhat heated exchange in my local bank the official asked to see my cards etc.. told me to wait a moment - used siscors to cut the cards and then told me "you are not a customer here.. your online banking has been deleted - advise us of a new account to send...
[23:25] <romrider7> ...your funds to. now leave the building!!"
[23:25] <linux> romrider7: Hi Man

[23:39] <lordcirth> Grandolf, to diagnose X errors, reading /var/log/Xorg.0.log is a good place to start.

[23:40] <salamanderrake> is there any type of confrencing software with a whiteboard or some such thing that does not need you to set up a web server?
[23:42] <lordcirth> salamanderrake, I am not aware of one, however there are many websites that let you do this for free.
[23:42] <salamanderrake> oh
[23:42] <salamanderrake> ok
[23:46] <Bashing-om> private: Can not work on a file system while in use ( mounted ) one works from a liveDVD in your case .
