[16:14] <ImJune> I am trying to run this command after pressing ctr alt f1 "diff -ns ~/dmesg_boot ~/dmesg > ~/dmesg_diff"
[16:15] <ImJune> I am getting permission denied statement
[16:15] <sara_> really appreciate your help bstarek
[16:15] <bstarek> sara_, no problem, good luck with your issue.
[16:17] <ImJune> is there a way to enter that command
[16:17] <ImJune> I am guessing I should be root
[16:17] <panicbit> Hi, I'm trying to update to PHP 5.4 on lucid using this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/ubuntu/php5-oldstable    But apt still wants to install PHP 5.3 from the distro repo. Any ideas why that might be?
[16:17] <panicbit> (Yes I did apt-get update)
[16:19] <fullstack> Anyone have the problemw here Chrome goes crazy and displays a bunch of pink tab squares instead of a webpage?
[16:20] <Pici> panicbit: What release of Ubuntu are you running now?
[16:21] <panicbit> Pici: 10.04.4
[16:21] <Pici> panicbit: Well, that PPA only has packages for 12.04.
[16:21] <panicbit> oO
[16:21] <panicbit> Oh right
[16:22] <Pici> panicbit: Additionally, 10.04 was dropped from Ubuntu support on April 30th.
[16:22] <Pici> !lucid
[16:22] <panicbit> Pici: Then I only need to adjust my sources line... The packages work fine when installed manually
[16:22] <Pici> panicbit: well, good luck with that ;)
[16:22] <panicbit> Pici: Eh, I sadly can't upgrade...
[16:22] <panicbit> Pici: vserver suckage
[16:23] <panicbit> Pici: The server is a big mess of software pulled from newer versions... :/
[16:23] <Pici> panicbit: Gross. At least you recognise it though.
[16:24] <sara_> bstarek im in :D
[16:24] <bstarek> sara_, great :), how did you fo?
[16:24] <bstarek> do
[16:25] <panicbit> Pici: Hm, I think the PPA has dropped support for lucid...
[16:26] <panicbit> Oh well...
[16:26] <sara_> trough team viewer i logged on my pc and changed drivers to xserver-xorg-video nuveau from nvidia 331.113
[16:26] <sara_> i just got one final question
[16:26] <bstarek> ok good
[16:26] <sara_> i work with graphics specially with 3D so i need better drivers....which driver should i choose now?
[16:27] <bstarek> sara_, i cant tell you, you will have to make some research on google.
[16:27] <sara_> ok np
[16:27] <bstarek> sara_, or maybe try the nvidia forum
[16:28] <bstarek> sara_, but I am sure you will find the information if you look for it.
[16:28] <notevenandrew> Hello, I made a udev rule to run a script every time i connect my phone, but now my phone won't auto-mount in /run/user/1000/gvfs/ Does anyone have any  suggestions im stuck!
[16:29] <epicnah> sara, apple pc is good for designer CMIW. im using intel, comfort with nvidia in my opion :)
[16:29] <sara_> i hate apple
[16:30] <sara_> i work on mac pro at work
[16:30] <epicnah> but the color is more deep in apple
[16:31] <sara_> lol
[16:31] <sara_> u joking
[16:31] <bstarek> sara_, try this "http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/84721/en-us"  in "supported products"
[16:31] <sara_> u mean difference between rec 709 and sRGB display device?
[16:34] <epicnah> really ?
[16:34] <sara_> what really?
[16:35] <epicnah> np
[16:35] <sara_> look for comparison between rec709 and sRGB
[16:35] <sara_> if you dont belive me
[16:37] <sara_> i ll log back in from my main comp under vandorius nick ;)
[16:37] <notevenandrew> Ok so apparently GVFS stands for gnome virtual filesystem. Therefore it is obvious that nothing is mounted there since nautilus doesn't automatically mount it (or detect it)
[16:37] <vandorius> hey
[16:37] <notevenandrew> How can i manually mount that MTP device somewhere else then :-)
[16:38] <Pici> notevenandrew: iirc, you can access it from the shell by going into ~/.gvfs/  I might be confusing things though (I'm not a desktop person)
[16:41] <notevenandrew> Pici: thanks for the input, but i think you missed the context: The automount was working well, and it was mounting my device under /run/user/1000/gvfs/mtp:[blabla], i put some custom rules in udev, and this automount thing stopped working. So i am looking for a manual way to mount it somewhere from the script im running
[16:45] <Pici> notevenandrew: oh, sorry, I did miss a bunch.
[16:50] <JinjaNinja> I have JACK Virtual Keyboard running, and It's connected to Calf Organ plugin. For some reason though, it doesn't make sound.
[16:55] <fgro> hi all. so I helped a friend of my mother to switch from windows vista to ubuntu. everything works fine, except for her printer/scanner. it's a brother mfc-j430w. any recommendations on how to deal with this? I think the best would be for her to get a new printer/scanner that works plug and play since I'm several hours away and don't have remote access to her machine. Thanks for your advice.
[16:57] <LinuxNewb> herro
[16:57] <lotuspsychje> fgro: check apt-cache search brother, maybe your printers drivers show there
[16:58] <LinuxNewb> Why is ubuntu so bad
[16:58] <lotuspsychje> LinuxNewb: this is not the right place for this kind of opinions
[16:59] <BluesKaj> LinuxNewb, tell us what's bad so we can help you make it good
[16:59] <ImJune> I dunno
[16:59] <ImJune> I had my mousepad fixed
[16:59] <ImJune> I had to reinstall and now my "touchpad" rather is not working agian
[16:59] <BluesKaj> LinuxNewb, or are you just to complain?
[16:59] <ImJune> I went to /etc/default/grub
[17:00] <LinuxNewb> Well the fact that ubuntu is like the windows of the gnu world, they want to only make money
[17:00] <BluesKaj> here
[17:00] <fgro> lotuspsychje: i tried to install the printer, but there were no drivers available. i found instructions which included complex commandline instructions, but it didn't work.
[17:00] <bazhang> LinuxNewb, wrong channel
[17:00] <LinuxNewb> on top of that unity is trash
[17:00] <BluesKaj> LinuxNewb, then you're in the wrong place for that discusssion
[17:00] <ImJune> changed the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= as I did before
[17:00] <ImJune> but this fix doesnt work
[17:01] <ImJune> any more
[17:01] <ImJune> is there somekind of kernel bug or something I can fix?
[17:01] <lotuspsychje> !details | ImJune
[17:02] <ImJune> Ok so my laptops touchpad is not responding
[17:02] <lotuspsychje> ImJune: ubuntu version?
[17:02] <ImJune> 15.04
[17:02] <ImJune> 9 month support version
[17:02] <lotuspsychje> ImJune: did you have same on 14.04?
[17:02] <LinuxNewb> ImJune i can help you , just open a terminal
[17:02] <ImJune> ok
[17:02] <ImJune> terminal is open
[17:02] <LinuxNewb> now type sudo poweroff
[17:02] <lotuspsychje> !ops | LinuxNewb
[17:02] <bazhang> LinuxNewb, dont try anything silly here
[17:03] <ImJune> nice troll
[17:03] <narkman> XD
[17:03] <LinuxNewb> :P
[17:03] <LinuxNewb> was your touchpad working before? or like just suddenly it stopped?
[17:03] <ImJune> I have fixed this issue in the past editing the grub file in /etc/default
[17:04] <ImJune> No I mean I had to reinstall and the prior fix that I used wont work agiann
[17:04] <lotuspsychje> ImJune: what fix?
[17:05] <notevenandrew> Wherever i searched, they tell you to install and use go-mtpfs
[17:05] <notevenandrew> but i can't install that xD
[17:05] <lotuspsychje> notevenandrew: wich ubuntu version do you have?
[17:06] <notevenandrew> 15.04
[17:06] <lotuspsychje> !info mtpfs
[17:06] <ImJune> adding i8042.reset i8042.nomux i8042.nopnp i8042.noloop to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= line
[17:06] <ImJune> as before there was only "quiet splash"
[17:07] <ImJune> this fix had worked prior
[17:07] <notevenandrew> !info go-mtpfs
[17:07] <notevenandrew> it is in another repository, but i added it :<
[17:07] <ImJune> any ideas?
[17:07] <bazhang> !find gmtp
[17:07] <bazhang> its gmtp
[17:08] <notevenandrew> okay let me try it :)
[17:08] <lotuspsychje> ImJune: never seen that addline sorry, where did you find that?
[17:08] <ImJune> etc/default/grub
[17:09] <lotuspsychje> ImJune: i mean wich tutorial/forum?
[17:09] <ImJune> moment
[17:11] <lotuspsychje> ImJune: sounds like this kind of bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1448665
[17:11] <ImJune> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2233632&page=2

[17:12] <ImJune> you fixed it?
[17:12] <fgro> so what i'm looking for is a plug and play printer/scanner for 14.04 .. i found this list, but anyone with recommendations https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsScanners
[17:12] <narkman> yes
[17:12] <lotuspsychje> fgro: hp always does the trick
[17:13] <lotuspsychje> fgro: with hplip tools its gonna be your best bet with ubuntu
[17:13] <fgro> lotuspsychje: hplip needs to be manually installed I assume?
[17:13] <fgro> lotuspsychje: or does it come with ubunut preinstalled?
[17:13] <lotuspsychje> !info hplip | fgro
[17:14] <lotuspsychje> fgro: optional
[17:14] <fgro> ok
[17:14] <fgro> lotuspsychje: thanks
[17:14] <lotuspsychje> fgro: no prob
[17:14] <ImJune> can you share how you fixed it?
[17:15] <ImJune> everysingle time I reboot there is an error message system problem detected
[17:15] <lotuspsychje> ImJune: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection
[17:16] <ImJune> I have been there but some of their instructions don't even work
[17:16] <lotuspsychje> ImJune: did you try a no_acpi boot?
[17:16] <ImJune> how to do that?
[17:16] <lotuspsychje> !nomodeset | ImJune
[17:17] <lotuspsychje> ImJune: same way you set nomodeset, try no_acpi
[17:18] <ImJune> Ok I will try this
[17:20] <ImJune> shall I add exactly this ?  There is only one user in my ubuntu 14.04 installation. I mistakenly took ,myself out of the sudoers group. Is there a way to fix that?
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> nimbiotics: use root recovery console from Grub
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> nimbiotics: you can then add your user to the sudo group and reboot.
[17:35] <ImJune> ubuntu 15.04
[17:35] <nimbiotics> ActionParsnip: Ok, thanks
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> nimbiotics: you may need to remount your system partition as writable using:   mount -o remount,rw /
[17:36] <ImJune> \n \l
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: is this a server install? No gui?
[17:36] <ImJune> this is full gui
[17:36] <ImJune> unity desktop
[17:36] <ImJune> I had fixed this previously touchpad working no issues
[17:37] <ImJune> but I reinstalled to an mSata drive and deleted the sata3 drive
[17:37] <ImJune> now I can not get this mousepad working again
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: unity is a shell (gnome is the desktop) :)
[17:37] <ImJune> ok my bad
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: is it a laptop?
[17:37] <ImJune> yes
[17:37] <ImJune> very generic one
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: what make and model?
[17:38] <ImJune> its a frontier pc KOUZIRO 14 laptop
[17:38] <ImJune> i5 3317u

[17:39] <ImJune> if you have time can we go to pm?
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: have you tried the boot option:   i8024.reset     or         i8024.irqpoll     or      i8024.nomux
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: worth a shot
[17:40] <ImJune> I will pastebin for you
[17:40] <ImJune> the grub
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: i dont need it, just try the options
[17:40] <ImJune> all at once?
[17:40] <ImJune> or 1 and 1
[17:40] <ImJune> 1 by 1*
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: individually. You will need to reboot to test
[17:45] <ImJune> did you mean i8042?
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=i8024.reset      no :D
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> ImJune: its a common couple of boot options I know that do something to make touchpads work.
[17:46] <nimbiotics> ActionParsnip: It worked, Thanks!

[17:52] <anonimouse> Hello anyone there?
[17:52] <anonimouse> Can anyone help me?
[17:52] <MonkeyDust> anonimouse  start with a question
[17:53] <ImJune> this is brutal
[17:54] <ImJune> far to fall when it was working fine before
[17:54] <anonimouse> I am having a dual boot with  window s 8.1 . Hours before, i used windows and returned to ubuntu  to find i cant get audio from VLC and other players
[17:54] <JinjaNinja> Anyone have experience with jack connections?
[17:54] <MonkeyDust> anonimouse  in a terminal, type    alsamixer    if you see MM, go there and hit m
[17:55] <JinjaNinja> MonkeyDust, you seem like you could be of some help, could you help me connect my Virtual JACK keyboard to QSynth?
[17:55] <anonimouse> @MonkeyDust my alsamixer is looking weird with just three squares all saying OO
[17:56] <MonkeyDust> JinjaNinja  better ask in #ubuntustudio, it's multimidia dedicated
[17:56] <MonkeyDust> multimedia*
[17:56] <JinjaNinja> Thanks :)
[17:56] <pbx> JinjaNinja, anonimouse, also - address the room, not individuals
[17:57] <JinjaNinja> Whoops
[17:57] <anonimouse> sorry pbx. How do i  address the room?
[17:58] <pbx> anonimouse, just ask your question(s)
[17:58] <BluesKaj> anonimouse, you are addressing the room by typing into the textbox and hitting enter
[17:59] <pbx> anonimouse, i apologize though, i see you were responding to MonkeyDust, never mind
[17:59] <jaydemir> I had a question. I'm running xfce-desktop on my chromebook and I'm trying to customize it. I want to change the menu from default, and it's asking for a menu file. Where can I get more menu files to choose from?
[17:59] <ImJune> what does booting to insecure mode mean?
[17:59] <ghosty_> bonjour a tout le monde
[17:59] <tck9> anyone seen this before? nfsmount fails to mount a share on bootup (dmesg has svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 97)). After the system has booted up, manually doing a 'mount -a' works fine and mounts the share
[17:59] <ImJune> this is literally depressinng
[17:59] <notevenandrew> ImJune, i can relate to that!
[18:00] <JinjaNinja> Does anyone know of some multimedia chans besides #ubuntustudio ?
[18:00] <jaydemir> I couldn't quite get cinnamon working on here but I was trying to see if I could get a nice transparent menu going.
[18:00] <anonimouse> I cant hear audio from video files. I cant hear anything if I try to  play mp3 files with VLC , but i can hear using mp3 players. However I can hear drumrolls.

[18:09] <notevenandrew> Ok so now im stuck trying to find how to detach a script from my script udev runs, so it unblocks it and lets it mount, i tried setsid but without any luck, also disown didnt help either
[18:09] <lumia935> hi
[18:10] <notevenandrew> if i just comment the line that runs the script, everything works fine, but when it runs, it just blocks it, even with setsid :(

[18:11] <ImJune> this is crazyness

[18:16] <deadmund> In the new OS X you can shake the cursor and it will grow to help you find it (http://video.businessinsider.com/d671cfbc-8412-416e-851c-c27510ede9a7.webm).  Is there a similar feature anywhere in the Ubuntu world? (I use KDE if it matters)
[18:17] <entity_matt> Hi can anyone help me get my laptop to output to a second monitor. I'm using bumblbee and my vga port is connected to my nvidia card
[18:17] <reisio> deadmund: to indicate where the cursor is, or specifically to make it grow upon "shaking"? :p
[18:17] <deadmund> reisio: either/or   Do you know of a feature that indicates where it is?
[18:18] <reisio> deadmund: yeah, in compizconfig, show mouse
[18:18] <deadmund> reisio: thanks!
[18:20] <deadmund> reisio: What's the relationship between KDE and compiz?  It seems that it's using compiz but not fully or something?  I think that gnome 2 handled compiz the best but I've never dug into it with KDE (much less KDE 5)
[18:21] <xangua> deadmund: kde uses it's owm compositing efects (kwin) and Gnome Shell uses "mutter" I believe
[18:21] <reisio> yeah ^
[18:21] <reisio> KDE probably has one, though
[18:21] <reisio> since that's basically an accessibility issue
[18:21] <reisio> ask #kde about it
[18:21] <xangua> kde used to use compiz too back in 3.x
[18:21] <reisio> I think not
[18:22] <deadmund> ok, thanks guys
[18:22] <deadmund> So it's actually not compiz, but it is a similar feature-set.
[18:22] <deadmund> ?
[18:22] <reisio> deadmund: yes
[18:22] <deadmund> thanks
[18:23] <marcanuy> If I do "$id myuser" it shows it is belonging to the same group defined in /opt/dev, "chgrp mygroup /opt/dev; chmod 775 /opt/dev", but when I try "$touch /opt/dev/something" shows Permission Denied, any idea?
[18:23] <notevenandrew> I summarized my issue in http://paste.ubuntu.com/11697737/ If someone can read that i would be really thankful :)
[18:23] <reisio> deadmund: try CTRL+Win
[18:25] <reisio> marcanuy: chgrp is for files
[18:25] <marcanuy> reisio, chown mygroup:mygroup /opt/dev
[18:25] <reisio> deadmund: http://www.bbc.co.uk/accessibility/guides/mouse_pointer/computer/linux/kde/#finding or #kde, again
[18:26] <reisio> marcanuy: might want -R
[18:26] <deadmund> reisio: You the best!!!
[18:26] <marcanuy> reisio, yes, the problem is that it doesn't allow a user belonging to that group to write a file there

[18:40] <Inspiral> i made a fresh install of 14.04 lts. I ran 'sudo apt-get install lamp-server' and then 'service mysql stop', I then copied my old /var/lib/mysql folder to the new installation and tried 'service mysql start' i hit an error and would like to know how I can remove this install of mysql entirely and reinstall it as I cannot get it to restart even after removing /var/lib/mysql and 'apt-get purge mysql-server' and 'apt-get purge mysql-server-5.5' any
[18:40] <Inspiral>  ideas?
[18:40] <MonkeyDust> muhkuh  you too, there's also #ubuntustudio
[18:41] <muhkuh> aight Monkey
[18:45] <DrBotato> sometimes my backspace key makes a ^H instead of actually deleting. eg: rm: remove write-protected regular file ‘test.tar.gz’? su^H^H^H^H^H^C
[18:45] <DrBotato> is there a way to fix this?
[18:47] <angular_mike_> hello
[18:48] <angular_mike_> I think my OS got really messed up
[18:48] <Lunario> how can I access an ssh network device added to nautilus via terminal?
[18:48] <Lunario> its not in /media
[18:48] <angular_mike_> I've installed updates with security updater and restarted when prompted.
[18:48] <angular_mike_> But when I booted back up, I've immediately noticed some problems
[18:49] <angular_mike_> first, the quick launch bar to the left is gone
[18:49] <angular_mike_> second, many keyboard shortcuts have stopped working. I cant use them to switch monitors or open terminal
[18:50] <angular_mike_> It's a miracle that i've been able to navigate to chrome
[18:50] <angular_mike_> by creating a new folder on desktop
[18:50] <angular_mike_> how do I go about fixing this?
[18:50] <MonkeyDust> angular_mike_  spare the enter key, please
[18:51] <Inspiral> lol you're a helpful fellow MonkeyDust
[18:51] <Inspiral> use of the enter key helps convey the desperation angular_mike_ is expressing
[18:51] <Inspiral> imo
[18:52] <angular_mike_> ok, sorry for flooding, I'm just really distressed as you can guess; s/security updated/software updater/
[18:52] <Inspiral> angular_mike_, it seems like your desktop environment is messed up,
[18:53] <Inspiral> angular_mike_, if you create a new user account and login with that does everything show ok?
[18:53] <kostkon> angular_mike_, what's your graphics card and what driver are you using. You could start with this http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/how-to-reset-compiz-and-unity-in-ubuntu.html
[18:53] <angular_mike_> Inspiral: yeah, i've also noticed that maximized windows get glitches a their top and there is no top menu with stuff like 'File', etc
[18:54] <angular_mike_> Inspiral: would logging in as guest be enough?
[18:54] <Inspiral> angular_mike_, try that link kostkon pasted
[18:55] <pavlos> Lunario, are you using samba?
[18:55] <Inspiral> guest might, i don't know. I was just suggesting to eliminate any configuration that's setup in your ~/
[18:57] <Lunario> pavlos:no, ssh
[18:57] <angular_mike_> kostkon: I'm guessing, I have to install the rest tool. Software Center doesn't seem to work anymore. I can install it via terminal, right? How do I open the terminal then?
[18:58] <pavlos> Lunario, I guess I dont understand your question ... you ssh to another box, now what?
[18:58] <kostkon> angular_mike_, ctrl+alt+f1 to f6 to access TTY F7 to get back. what rest tool?
[18:58] <angular_mike_> *reset tool
[18:59] <Lunario> i ssh'd into it via nautilus so that i can access the files in nautilus.. but how can i access the filesystem via terminal? i know i can ssh into it or use scp, but if the filesystem structure of the remote system has been "mounted" in nautilus (which seems to be the case) why is it not in /media or /mnt?
[19:00] <pavlos> Lunario, http://askubuntu.com/questions/412477/mount-remote-directory-using-ssh
[19:00] <kostkon> angular_mike_, follow the 2nd method.
[19:01] <kostkon> angular_mike_, or download it with chrome, then to install it   sudo dpkg -i ***.deb or
[19:01] <wafflejock> Lunario, can use Ctrl+L to see the current path in nautilus when you have the server window open and see if it's mounted somewhere or just connected via samba or otherwise
[19:01] <kostkon> angular_mike_, just download and run the script
[19:02] <Lunario> i am familiar with sshfs but I thought it might already be mounted but just not where I expected it to be... anyways, thanks
[19:02] <kostkon> angular_mike_, or try the 2nd method, as I suggested already
[19:03] <angular_mike_> kostkon: ok, i'm following the second methd. I've got an nvidia card for laptops, btw
[19:06] <notevenandrew> Ubuntu keeps asking me to enter the password for cryptswap1, is there a way to decrypt it? It is popping up very frequently.
[19:06] <angular_mike_> kostkon: hmm, I get `error: Cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 $DISPLAY` when trying to run `dconf reset -f /org/compiz/` from the TTY
[19:07] <kostkon> angular_mike_, hmm ok. are you sure you can't start a terminal on your desktop?
[19:08] <angular_mike_> kostkon: the hotkey combinations dont work
[19:08] <angular_mike_> kostkon: if I could find the executable, I might be able to
[19:08] <kostkon> angular_mike_, tried both alt+f2 & ctrl+alt+t ?
[19:09] <angular_mike_> kostkon: yes
[19:10] <angular_mike_> shit, alt + tab also doesnt work, I thought I had lost the browser for a while
[19:11] <kostkon> angular_mike_, is there any way you could open a nautilus window?
[19:11] <kostkon> angular_mike_, like having a folder on your desktop you could click on. also try pressing ctrl+n
[19:12] <angular_mike_> kostkon: yes, I managed to open it by creating a new folder on desktop
[19:13] <kostkon> angular_mike_, gnome-terminal should be in /usr/bin
[19:13] <kostkon> angular_mike_, alternatively, you could download and run the script from the webupd8 page
[19:14] <angular_mike_> kostkon: hmm I see no gnome-terminal in /usr/bin
[19:15] <kostkon> angular_mike_, should be there
[19:16] <MonkeyDust> angular_mike_  type   which gnome-terminal
[19:16] <angular_mike_> MonkeyDust: it returns nothing
[19:17] <MonkeyDust> angular_mike_  where did you type it? is it ubuntu?
[19:17] <angular_mike_> MonkeyDust: in TTY
[19:17] <angular_mike_> MonkeyDust: yes, it's ubuntu
[19:18] <angular_mike_> MonkeyDust: I've found a desktop shortcut to gnome-terminal and launching it yields `there was an error launching the application`
[19:18] <MonkeyDust> ok, then try installing it... sudo apt-get install gnome-terminal
[19:18] <angular_mike_> MonkeyDust: alt+f4 works strangely. useful, because there's no 'x's for closing
[19:20] <MonkeyDust> angular_mike_  i'm not following you, what was your initial question?
[19:20] <angular_mike_> MonkeyDust: ok, terminal runs now
[19:20] <angular_mike_> MonkeyDust: um, my inital question was how to fix this mess
[19:21] <MonkeyDust> angular_mike_  specify "mess"
[19:21] <angular_mike_> MonkeyDust: no quick launch tab and multiple hokeys not working
[19:23] <angular_mike_> kostkon: ok, now I've successfully run the `dconf reset -f /org/compiz/`
[19:23] <blz> Hello, how do I configure groups such that all newly-created subdirectories belong to a given group?
[19:24] <kostkon> angular_mike_, either do setsid unity or if you want, reboot
[19:24] <blz> For instance, I have directory `A`.  I want it and all its future children to belong to group `g`.
[19:24] <blz> how do I do this?
[19:24] <angular_mike_> kostkon: it says that I need to run `setsid unity` next. When I run it I get ` execvp: No such file or directory`. Quick google shows people reinstalling gcc++ to fix that. Should this apply in my case?
[19:25] <angular_mike_> kostkon: wait, installing execvp
[19:26] <kostkon> angular_mike_, i guess you could reboot. although your system exhibits some peculiar symptoms, like the initial problem when trying to start the terminal and now this
[19:26] <angular_mike_> kostkon: ok, ill reboot then
[19:26] <kostkon> angular_mike_, i don't really know what to make of this
[19:26] <angular_mike_> kostkon: hopefully, I'll be able to launch chrome after that
[19:26] <angular_mike_> LETS GO
[19:27] <kostkon> angular_mike_, do it :P
[19:31] <angular_mike_> ok, after restart nothing seems to have changed
[19:31] <angular_mike_> kostkon: as you might have noticed I seem to also be missing some cruicial program installations
[19:32] <angular_mike_> kostkon: before installing updates I was messing with virtualbox, but nothing more dangerous than `apt ge install/remove` no flags like `purge`
[19:32] <kostkon> angular_mike_, you could try reinstalling the ubuntu desktop,    sudo apt-get clean    and then   sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop --reinstall
[19:33] <pbx> how do i change the system notification style in 14.04 (unity)?
[19:34] <angular_mike_> kostkon: ok, trying
[19:35] <angular_mike_> pbx: you mean the graphical notification bubbles?
[19:36] <angular_mike_> pbx: there seems to be a 3-rd party patch for customizing them: http://askubuntu.com/questions/128474/how-to-customize-on-screen-notifications
[19:39] <angular_mike_> kostkon: ok, reinstalling the ubuntu desktop seems to have fixed the problem, at least the symptom, thanks you
[19:40] <angular_mike_> I'm still worried about the missing programs
[19:40] <angular_mike_> any idea how to survey the damage?
[19:40] <EriC^^> what programs angular_mike_ ?
[19:40] <angular_mike_> EriC^^: my gnome-terminal had magically disappeared for once
[19:41] <EriC^^> was it still installed in dpkg -l ?
[19:41] <EriC^^> or apt-cache policy ?
[19:41] <kostkon> angular_mike_, good news, you could check your logs for any possible damage. make sure you check your dpkg.log and see what packages were installed / removed during in the last couple of days i guess
[19:42] <angular_mike_> EriC^^: also, I recall ctrl+alt+T stopping opening terminator instead of terminal right before restart after installign the updates
[19:42] <kostkon> minus during*
[19:42] <angular_mike_> kostkon: will do
[19:43] <angular_mike_> I have to say, this is not the first time I messed up my Ubunty by messing with Virtualbox
[19:43] <heeen> I'm on kubuntu and for some reason powerdevil stopped working
[19:43] <heeen> this setup is like 2 hours old
[19:43] <heeen> there was a conflict earlier and I had to do apt-get install -f
[19:44] <EriC^^> angular_mike_: debsums can check all files of installed packages and see if the checksums match
[19:44] <EriC^^> !info debsums | angular_mike_ in case you need it
[19:46] <pbx> angular_mike_, thanks. yeah, that's what i meant. i changed the style and don't know how it happened (perhaps by installing i3)
[19:47] <Finetundra> can I ask questions about lxqt here?
[19:51] <brainwash> Finetundra: you should first ask in #lxde
[19:52] <Finetundra> brainwash: I have but they're not very active. I was hoping I might m=be able to ask here
[19:52] <brainwash> Finetundra: lxqt is not available in the official repos, so it's not really supported here
[19:53] <Finetundra> sigh
[19:53] <brainwash> Finetundra: just wait a bit and someone in #lxde will answer. maybe even use the mailing list
[20:01] <meyou> anyknow know how i might undelete a vmdk from a vmfs volume using fuse vmfs
[20:04] <jean-guy> #xubuntu
[20:07] <jean-guy> good day everyone... in xubuntu, can we find a code for each letter of the alphabeth, or number or other symbol ?  something like the ascii codes in windows?
[20:10] <nicomachus> so I finished a HDD clone via dd this morning... and there was a 1B difference between the if and of. oops? going to matter? trivial?
[20:12] <pavlos> nicomachus, one byte?
[20:13] <EriC^^> nicomachus: how did you get that difference?
[20:15] <dStruct> hey guys, i'm launching Ubuntu via a Unetbootin USB bootloader/grub and I appear to be doing something wrong trying to get into single user, here's the grub line .. /ubnkern initrd=/ubninit file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash -- persistant
[20:15] <dStruct> do I need to put "single" before the --?
[20:19] <dStruct> anyone?
[20:21] <daftykins> ?
[20:21] <dStruct> daftykins: trying to figure out why I can't get into single user mode
[20:22] <daftykins> it doesn't exist anymore
[20:22] <daftykins> boot with 'text' instead
[20:22] <dStruct> daftykins: seriously, even on 12.x?
[20:22] <daftykins> *shrug*
[20:22] <nicomachus> EriC^^ and pavlos: according the readout when dd finished. It showed the if size and of size, and there was a 1B difference.
[20:22] <angular_mike_> ok guys, remember the problem I had about half an hour ago
[20:22] <EriC^^> nicomachus: what options did you use for dd?
[20:23] <angular_mike_> I've been able to replicate it
[20:23] <nicomachus> Don't remember the numbers exactly, but something like if=936473879839 of=936473879838
[20:23] <nicomachus> no options, EriC^^
[20:23] <nicomachus> I thought it was just kinda odd that it was 1B
[20:23] <EriC^^> nicomachus: ok, i'm not sure if it matters
[20:24] <angular_mike_> All I had to do was install this package: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.3.28/virtualbox-4.3_4.3.28-100309~Ubuntu~raring_i386.deb
[20:24] <angular_mike_> gnome-terminal -- gone
[20:24] <nicomachus> yea, I don't think it'll make much of a difference... will be home in 1.5 hours and will try to boot it up then.
[20:24] <angular_mike_> is there anywhere I should report this?
[20:25] <EriC^^> nicomachus: you could always run it with dd if= of= bs=4M conv=sync,noeror
[20:25] <lotuspsychje> !info virtualbox | angular_mike_
[20:26] <EriC^^> nicomachus: that will ignore errors and pad the blocks that have errors so the image is in sync
[20:26] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: sorry?
[20:26] <EriC^^> nicomachus: also 4M is way quicker than copying it 512bytes at a time
[20:26] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: wich ubuntu version do you have?
[20:26] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: 14.04 LTS
[20:27] <lotuspsychje> !info virtualbox trusty | angular_mike_
[20:27] <EriC^^> nicomachus: you could always run it with dd if= of= bs=4M conv=sync,noeror,notrunc if you're writing it to an img and not a hdd
[20:27] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: Ubuntu 13.04 ("Raring") / 13.10 ("Saucy") / 14.04 ("Trusty") / 14.10 ("Utopic") / 15.04 ("Vivid")  i386 |  AMD64
[20:27] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: its reccomended to install virtualbox version, for your ubuntu version
[20:27] <nicomachus> EriC^^: Oh well, it's done now.
[20:27] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: the virtualbox website suggested that package for my version
[20:29] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: and ubuntu suggests to use version from official repo
[20:30] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: it had some incompatibilities with extensions
[20:30] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: wich one?
[20:31] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: VirtualBox 4.3.28 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack  I think, software center wouldn't let me install it over virtualbox
[20:31] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: use packages for trusty only mate
[20:32] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: but, there's a lot of stuff not available in ubuntu repos
[20:38] <mitfree> Anyone know? Which canonical resource should I use first when experiencing an issue with a ubuntu 14.04 server?
[20:39] <MonkeyDust> mitfree  ask your question here, for a start
[20:39] <MonkeyDust> mitfree  however, we're volunteers, not canonical employees
[20:39] <angular_mike_> mitfree: are you talking about URL?
[20:40] <angular_mike_> Canonical URL
[20:40] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: apt-cache search virtualbox show a few things
[20:40] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: what do they show?
[20:41] <steloran_> METALER IN ##PHYSICS AND ##NOT-PHYSICS IS METALEER THE CUNT IS BACK
[20:42] <nicomachus> lol wat?
[20:42] <k1l_> nicomachus: dont mind the trolls :)
[20:42] <nicomachus> someone's gotta break the monotony of the workday. :)
[20:42] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: check in your terminal :p
[20:43] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: the virtualbox I've got installed right now is the one from Software Center, do you still want it?
[20:43] <nicomachus> not that I'm an expert at all, lotuspsychje, but isn't it better for him to ask what a command does before typing it blindly into a terminal?
[20:44] <lotuspsychje> nicomachus: apt-cache search is pretty harmless mate
[20:44] <angular_mike_> nicomachus: `search` couldn't hurt, could it?
[20:44] <nicomachus> still doesn't hurt to ask.... but carry on
[20:44] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: want what?
[20:44]  * nicomachus slinks away
[20:45] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: the output
[20:45] <mitfree> angular_mike_: By resourse I mean.. irc, forum, man page, wiki, mailing list.. etc. My issue maybe a bit involved. So are you guys recomending people come here before those other resources. It's been awhile since I've used ubuntu.
[20:45] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: no mate that was for you, as you asked before for extensions..
[20:46] <lotuspsychje> mitfree: the #ubuntu-server guys might be able to help?
[20:46] <k1l_> mitfree: so you mean: "i have an issue with ubuntu, where to get help?" or are we talking about paid canonical support?
[20:47] <MonkeyDust> mitfree  type /j #ubuntu-server, ask your question there
[20:47] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: oh, so what will it do?
[20:47] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: search all packages on the text 'virtualbox'
[20:47] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: i tought maybe it shows relevant packages you search for?
[20:47] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: no, I mean what use is it for me?
[20:48] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: you named a virtualbox extension before
[20:48] <angular_mike_> mitfree: I'm no expert, but I don't think they provide support, unless you're a paying customer
[20:48] <angular_mike_> lotuspsychje: oh, ok
[20:48] <lotuspsychje> angular_mike_: and maybe the #vbox guys can also point you deeper to your needs
[20:50] <mitfree> k1l_: Right, I don't mean paid support. You know how some distros say search the mailing list first...  Things might hace changed.
[20:50] <PCatinean> Hey guys, i wanted to install the ubuntu-restricted-extras and also accepted the EULA with the fonts now I want to chuck them away
[20:50] <PCatinean> how can one do that?
[20:50] <lotuspsychje> PCatinean: hit TAB
[20:50] <angular_mike_> mitfree: then I guess you're looking for Ubuntu community support, not from Canonical
[20:51] <PCatinean> lotuspsychje, it's already done, now I want to revert it :(
[20:51] <PCatinean> I read about it only after
[20:51] <angular_mike_> mitfree: they've still got a forum, last time I checked
[20:51] <k1l_> mitfree: its your choice if irc, mailinglists, ubuntuforums, discourse or askubuntu suits you best
[20:51] <angular_mike_> mitfree: as well as an IRC chat
[20:51] <MonkeyDust> mitfree  simply ask your question, then we can answer and give directions
[20:51] <lotuspsychje> PCatinean: you want to uninstall restricted-extras?
[20:51] <angular_mike_> mitfree: #ubuntu
[20:51] <k1l_> mitfree: there even is the possibility to ask a question on launchpad
[20:53] <lotuspsychje> PCatinean: what are you trying to do mate?
[20:56] <PCatinean> lotuspsychje, when installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras, I accepted EULA whatever and it installed the fonts and change the fonts, now I just want to remove those
[20:57] <EriC^^> PCatinean: try sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-restricted-extras , maybe
[20:57] <PCatinean> that will remove everything except the fonts EriC^^ from what I see in the list
[20:57] <lotuspsychje> PCatinean: why dont you change the font to what you like?
[20:57] <PCatinean> gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse libavcodec-extra libfaac0  libmjpegutils-2.1-0 libmpeg2encpp-2.1-0 libmplex2-2.1-0
[20:57] <PCatinean> that's all
[20:57] <OerHeks> i would try ' sudo apt-get purge ttf-mscorefonts-installer'
[20:57] <PCatinean> lotuspsychje, I just want the standard one, dunno which one is that
[20:58] <PCatinean> OerHeks, that sounds like something better
[20:58] <lotuspsychje> PCatinean: the fonts, are just extras mate
[20:58] <PCatinean> it said installing fonts, not sure if it updated as well
[20:58] <lotuspsychje> PCatinean: some microsoft fonts in there, some users need
[20:58] <lotuspsychje> PCatinean: that doesnt mean its gonna change font in your ubuntu
[20:59] <OerHeks> some programs want those, especially those containers
[20:59] <MonkeyDust> deformations in documents may occur, if you don't have the same or right fonts
[20:59] <lotuspsychje> i think verdana font sticks in there
[21:00] <PCatinean> brb
[21:00] <PCatinean> thanks guys!
[21:02] <lotuspsychje> Bashing-om: good evening mate
[21:03] <Bashing-om> lotuspsychje: o/ .. Yeah Good one .If it is not a good day, let us make it a good day.

[21:21] <awsumatt> Hey I'm having trouble with an Asus R9 270, does anyone know how to help?
[21:21] <reisio> awsumatt: yup
[21:23] <awsumatt> I have tried everything and looked everywhere and spent hours trying to fix this. I'm kind of a new, I mean I've been using Linux for about a year now so I know a little but nothing crazy. Anyways I just got an Asus R9 270 (https://www.asus.com/us/Graphics_Cards/R9270DC2OC2GD5/) and Catalyst detects it but doesn't use it. All I get is a black screen when I plug into it. However the Xorg driver works and Ubuntu only displays the boo
[21:24] <awsumatt> *my integrated graphics

[21:27] <Bashing-om> awsumatt: ^^ . Sorry reisio .. Do not recal what I did to highlight you .
[21:27] <reisio> transposed a msg I sent to awsumatt, probs
[21:27] <reisio> the human mind is a dangerous thing :p
[21:28] <Bashing-om> reisio: :) especially so when I take it out and play with it .
[21:28] <N1ch0l4s> Hey, I'm a bit of a network noob, and I have a DNS issue.
[21:29] <awsumatt> Thanks, I will try that stuff
[21:30] <N1ch0l4s> I connect to the internet through a wireless AP.  I'm configuring another linux host, and I'm hooked up to it through ethernet. By fiddling with network settings I can ping my wireless gateway and the ethernet connected linux host, but DNS fails.  disconnecting ethernet solves this.
[21:30] <brandonp> I just installed Ubuntu for the first time
[21:30] <brandonp> I like it a lot.
[21:31] <k1l_> brandonp: good to hear
[21:31] <brandonp> I have a question though, so the first thing I did was "sudo apt-get update"
[21:31] <brandonp> then "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[21:31] <izi> please help me to learn english langauge
[21:31] <k1l_> izi: try in #english
[21:32] <brandonp> then I typed "sudo apt-get install" -- does this last install prompt do anything?
[21:32] <izi> sudo apt-get install english
[21:32] <izi> not work
[21:32] <brandonp> or do i have to preface it with a package, like "sudo apt-get install git"
[21:32] <k1l_> brandonp: no that will not install something. you need to specify a package (or several packages)
[21:32] <brandonp> ah ok thanks
[21:33] <EriC^^> brandonp: if you want to upgrade all the packages, including the kernel, use sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[21:33] <brandonp> ohhh
[21:33] <k1l_> brandonp: and with "just" apt-get upgrade you might miss some updates. better use "sudo apt update" and "sudo apt full-upgrade"
[21:33] <brandonp> ok thanks
[21:34] <brandonp> "sudo apt-get install -f" doesn't do anything either right?
[21:34] <k1l_> they tried to reduce the confusing naming with the new apt command
[21:34] <k1l_> brandonp: dont use that out of nowhere.
[21:34] <brandonp> Oopa
[21:34] <brandonp> Oops*
[21:34] <k1l_> that install -f is needed if something went wrong and you want to force (-f) the install
[21:35] <brandonp> Ah ok. I w as just typing in random prompts trying to fix my wifi. But I just installed that kernel you told me about and it fixed it. Lol.
[21:35] <EriC^^> brandonp: it checks for any problems and broken dependencies
[21:35] <_NOLUNCH> i have a blank folder with unreadable size in BYTEs named /root in my phone. anyone knows how much is the size and how may i use this block folder to increase ram?
[21:36] <_NOLUNCH> i have a blank folder with unreadable size in BYTEs named /root in my phone. anyone knows how much is the size and how may i use this block folder to increase ram?
[21:36] <TheChips> years ago, I used to use ubuntu, but I didn't use the latest version because the latest version ran a little slower. nowadays, which version of ubuntu do folks use when they want a recentish, but low resource usage ubuntu for their crappy ancient netbook?
[21:36] <EriC^^> ( and tries to fix them brandonp )
[21:36] <brandonp> Understood, thanks EriC^^
[21:36] <k1l_> !lubuntu | TheChips
[21:37] <EriC^^> brandonp: no problem
[21:37] <k1l_> TheChips: and then start with the 14.04 LTS version
[21:37] <izi> why i cant join to another server
[21:37] <buzain> TheChips: i run xubuntu on my 5 years old dell studio laptop and it works fine
[21:38] <_NOLUNCH> i have a blank folder with unreadable size in BYTEs named /root in my phone. anyone knows how much is the size and how may i use this block folder to increase ram?
[21:39] <k1l_> _NOLUNCH: ubuntu phone?
[21:39] <TheChips> fair enough, buzain . there was a noticable performance difference between versions, at the time. I think it was 10.04 or something
[21:40] <buzain> TheChips: as k1l_ suggested, use the LTS version
[21:40] <TheChips> yeah, I'll try updating to 14.04, thanks you two
[21:40] <TheChips> *LTS
[21:41] <TheChips> I could always keep the version I've got but where's the fun in that? :)
[21:42] <buzain> TheChips: I use the latest and get decent performance but mainly for browsing and email
[21:43] <Jordan_U> TheChips: Which flavor of Ubuntu 14.04 did you decide to use?
[21:43] <thomedy> okay.. so i think i have gotten to the bottom of my issue... or at least i hope... im running ffmpeg from a website... right now its  local and the file name is nothing that is inputed from the user.. so just for a second. lets suspend our assumptions that it is unsafe
[21:44] <thomedy> my question is this.... i think i am not getting my output file.mp4 or whatever because my browser is running as www-data and has no permission to run ffmpeg
[21:44] <thomedy> am i right?
[21:44] <thomedy> how close to the truth is that
[21:45] <Jordan_U> thomedy: ls -l $(which ffmpeg)
[21:45] <thomedy> so you are saying i should type exactly that into command line
[21:46] <Jordan_U> thomedy: Yes. It will show you, among other things, the permissions for the ffmpeg binary. Unless you're doing something very odd it should be executable by all users.
[21:46] <thomedy> iit is in usr/local/bin
[21:46] <gt8ost4l> does anybody know how to get back the status bar in ubuntu 15.04
[21:47] <thomedy> and i compiled exactly how  ffmpeg.org page said to
[21:47] <thomedy> it is from source code on ffmpeg.org or whatever
[21:47] <Jordan_U> thomedy: Why did you compile from source at all?
[21:48] <thomedy> because my ubuntu software center wasn't working
[21:48] <k1l_> depending on the ubuntu version used ffmpeg is not in the repos. avconv is always in the repo
[21:48] <thomedy> it was lacking differnet dependencies and i couldn't access the h264
[21:48] <thomedy> and all my googling said ffmpeg was the most reliable method
[21:48] <k1l_> thomedy: could use the fork of ffmpeg "avconv"
[21:48] <thomedy> avconv would hav ebeen fine but very few google searches pointed to avconv in comparison with ffmpeg
[21:49] <thomedy> so thats what i did
[21:49] <thomedy> can avconv get h264 and back again
[21:49] <Jordan_U> thomedy: Yes.
[21:49] <k1l_> !avconv
[21:49] <thomedy> can you tell me the command for it
[21:49] <thomedy> i  will need h264 and flv
[21:49] <pedro__> hi can anyone tell me how to stop the pulse audio sound server?
[21:49] <Jordan_U> pedro__: What is your end goal?
[21:50] <k1l_> gt8ost4l: what status bar? the panel on the top edge?
[21:50] <gt8ost4l> no the bar that display the hard drive space
[21:51] <pedro__> Jordan_U, its to put my condenser microphone working on skype, but pulse audio is on the way
[21:51] <k1l_> thomedy: i dont know what you want to do at all but here is the manpage: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/avconv.1.html
[21:52] <k1l_> gt8ost4l: where was that bar? i dont know what you are talking about. ubuntu doesnt have that as a standard
[21:52] <luvenfu> how i use sudo inside of a bash script?
[21:53] <Jordan_U> pedro__: What makes you think that pulseaudio is "in the way"? Skype *requires* pulseaudio.
[21:53] <josharenson> Not sure if this is the correct place to ask... trying to get lightdm-qt-greeter to run, and it seems that the greeter is not talking to the lightdm server. Are there env variables that need to be set?
[21:53] <pedro__> Jordan_U, yes, but at skype sound settings i used to have "samsom usb microphone" option
[21:53] <gt8ost4l> k1l_ didnt you use ubuntu 12.04 it had it there in the taskbar
[21:53] <MonkeyDust> luvenfu  same as when you type it... you can use 'sudo true' in the beginning of the script
[21:54] <pedro__> Jordan_U, thats the option thats going to give me recording sound at skype, i used to have that working
[21:54] <k1l_> gt8ost4l: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vi3fMYU1SsE/T09a-4NQcUI/AAAAAAAAIGM/U-2d5PhdO8Q/s1600/ubuntu-12.04-precise-pangolin.png
[21:54] <brandonp> should I use "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" or "sudo apt dist-upgrade" ?
[21:55] <k1l_> brandonp: sudo apt full-upgrade
[21:55] <brandonp> Ok, thank you.
[21:55] <k1l_> brandonp: that combines the old "sudo apt-get upgrade" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[21:55] <brandonp> Two for one? Nice
[21:56] <brandonp> Is there any reason why I should just use sudo apt upgrade without dist?
[21:56] <pedro__> Jordan_U, could you gie me a hint on a good gui to configure puse audio working with my usb micro?
[21:56] <k1l_> when saying dist-upgrade some people still think it will upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10. so they got scared to run that command
[21:56] <k1l_> brandonp: apt-get upgrade will not install new packages, only update packages. but for some updates you need to install new packages (like kernel updates etc) so that cant be installed.
[21:58] <brandonp> k1l_: Ah okay, I see, it's just more control
[21:58] <k1l_> brandonp: the reasons are historically (from 10-15 years ago) and are not used like back than today. so the old differences just confuse today
[21:59] <k1l_> so "apt" instead of "apt-get" is more uptodate
[22:00] <brandonp> I understand now. 3/4 of the tutorials on the internet I'm reading use "apt-get", hah. I guess they're just used to it?
[22:00] <k1l_> brandonp: well, apt is just 1year old in ubuntu.
[22:24] <rapper97> How can I be sure I'm doing a UEFI instal? The help wiki links to an AskUbuntu answer that is far from clear.\
[22:24] <reisio> rapper97: what do you see at bootup before any OS boots?
[22:25] <rapper97> What do you mean?
[22:25] <rapper97> Nothing, really; it's a black screen and kicks straight into Windows 8 unless you hit e.g. F9.
[22:31] <Pazooza> I have a crypt-luks 1tb drive with no showing partitions in gparted. Why does update say there is not enough room in /boot? I don't see a partition for that. I have 900gig free.
[22:33] <Bashing-om> Pazooza: What does terminal command ' df -h ' tell you about "/" ?
[22:33] <Jordan_U> Pazooza: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l" and "df -h".
[22:33] <Pazooza> Never mind, I see mount point /boot 243 meg size.
[22:34] <Bashing-om> Pazooza: Try terminal command ' sudo apt-get autoremove ' to remove old kernels to free up some space .
[22:36] <Pazooza> I actually used gnome-commander in root mode to delete the old kernels and headers.
[22:36] <Jordan_U> rapper97: If the directory /sys/firmware/efi/ exists then you're booted via UEFI, and the installer will therefore try to install for UEFI.
[22:37] <Pazooza> Do you suppose I could resize the /boot partition larger?
[22:37] <Jordan_U> Pazooza: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l".
[22:37] <nicomachus> EriC^^ or pavlos: I'm trying to mount that HDD now that was 1B short on the dd, and can't: https://imgur.com/RoNGScI
[22:37] <rapper97> Jordan>> So when I boot into the live distro, look for that directory in the mounted filesystem?
[22:38] <nicomachus> output of dmesg | tails: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11698908/
[22:39] <Jordan_U> rapper97: I'm not sure what you mean by "in the mounted filesystem". Literally running "[ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS" will tell you if you're booted via UEFI.
[22:39] <nicomachus> that line about bad geometry?
[22:39] <rapper97> Jordan_U>> In the file system of the live CD/installer.
[22:40] <Jordan_U> rapper97: Yes.
[22:40] <rapper97> jordan_u ty
[22:41] <Jordan_U> rapper97: You're welcome.
[22:43] <rapper97> Will this directory also appear on the resulting instal, Jordan_U?
[22:45] <Jordan_U> rapper97: Yes. Pretty much any time you have a GNU/Linux system that has been booted via UEFI that directory will exist.
[22:46] <rapper97> So... is it, like, "virtual?" In other words, if it did not appear on an instal before, might it now?
[22:46] <rapper97> if I rebooted in UEFI mode? Or does its absence mean it wasn't installed in UEFI
[22:47] <rapper97> and thusly it can never be there.
[22:47] <rapper97> ?
[22:47] <Jordan_U> rapper97: Everything in /sys/ is "virtual". It's a way that the kernel communicates with userspace. The files exist only in memory, they are not ever stored on disk.
[22:49] <rapper97> Wow. This changes everything.
[22:52] <Koyaanis> how the hell do i use bootchart
[22:52] <Koyaanis> on 15.04
[22:53] <rapper97> "From an Ubuntu installed on the HDD (neither liveCD nor liveUSB)"
[22:53] <rapper97> (either that wasn't in the tutorial I read or I was too tired + missed it.)
[22:54] <Jordan_U> rapper97: That sentence has no meaning to me without context.
[22:54] <jkdjeff> Hi folks, support question: I just put 15.04 on a Toshiba laptop. Things are working well but my Synaptics touchpad isn't even showing up in xinput. Where to start with troubleshooting?
[22:56] <StephanX_> @jkdjeff - have a look here http://superuser.com/questions/437601/mouse-touchpad-stuck-in-ubuntu-12-04-after-resuming-from-suspend/437607#437607
[22:56] <StephanX_> also, double check that you don't have any hardware key disabling the touchpad
[22:57] <jkdjeff> hmmmmm. would that prevent it from even showing up in xinput?
[23:09] <Jordan_U> Koyaanis: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootCharting
[23:10] <nicomachus> fsck says a device is busy, but it's not even mounted...
[23:11] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: Please pastebin the complete output from fsck and the contents of /proc/mounts.
[23:13] <nicomachus> fsck: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11699044/ and /proc/mounts: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11699045/
[23:13] <nicomachus> Jordan_U: fyi, it's a crypto_luks partition
[23:14] <nicomachus> crypt_luks*
[23:16] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: You can't fsck /dev/sdb5 if it's encrypted. You need to unlock it then point fsck at the /dev/mapper/ device node representing the unencrypted contents.
[23:16] <hplc> i reformatted a disk, and did set a label to my liking, but after reboot the label is changed, to a long long string of numbers and characters?, annoying, how to change it?
[23:16] <nicomachus> ah, ok
[23:17] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: But before you do that, please explain what your end goal is. What problem are you having that's leading you to want to run fsck?
[23:17] <nicomachus> Jordan_U: the boot partition on this had a corrupted superblock and I had to restore from a backup, so I was just trying to the same here.
[23:17] <nicomachus> I was going to check it first with fsck, then restore the backup if need be
[23:18] <nicomachus> see: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11699013/
[23:21] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: OK. Have you checked the S.M.A.R.T. status of the drive to see if it might be failing?
[23:21] <nicomachus> Jordan_U: this is a cloned image off of a failing drive.
[23:22] <nicomachus> trying to repair the damage now and recover fiels.
[23:22] <nicomachus> files
[23:22] <hplc> the "prompt" is so long it going all across the screen
[23:23] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: Ahh, so you were the person to whom I recommended GNU ddrescue. Did you end up using GNU ddrescue? How many blocks was it not able to recover, if any?
[23:23] <hplc> can the label be changed with parted?, without breaking anything?
[23:23] <nicomachus> don't think that was me. sorry.
[23:23] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: OK, then it was another person with a failing drive using LUKS within the past few days :)
[23:24] <nicomachus> here's the crypt partition fsck output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11699078/
[23:24] <nicomachus> yikes.
[23:24] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: How did you clone the drive?
[23:24] <nicomachus> dd. took all night.
[23:24] <nicomachus> I was later informed there were better options. oh well.
[23:25] <ObrienDave> you went with dd any way? there are easier option ;P
[23:25] <nicomachus> yea, hey, thanks! where were ya last night! lol
[23:26] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: Did dd report any read errors?
[23:26] <ObrienDave> your buddy decided he wanted to show you the "right" way LOL
[23:26] <nicomachus> no, except the if was 1 byte larger than the of
[23:27] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: And both the if and of were drives?
[23:28] <nicomachus> one was an internal 3.5 and the other was an external 2.5, but both were 1TB
[23:28] <nicomachus> both toshiba, too, actually. haha
[23:29] <nicomachus> ahhhh it's not liking any of these backup superblocks..
[23:29] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: That's very odd. No drive should have a size that is anything but a multiple of 512 bytes.
[23:31] <nicomachus> not sure what you mean
[23:32] <ObrienDave> 512 is the smallest sector size. all drives are multiples of 512 in capacity
[23:33] <nicomachus> yea, I get that part. what's his point?
[23:33] <ObrienDave> one drive can't be 1 byte different from the other
[23:34] <ObrienDave> multiples of 512 yes, not 1
[23:34] <nicomachus> yea I should have screenshotted that.
[23:34] <nicomachus> it was like 6am this morning.
[23:34] <ObrienDave> been there, done that :)
[23:34] <nicomachus> and I was just walking past the computer to go get in the shower and leave for work. ahah
[23:35] <gt8ost4l> does anybody know where the system diretory is
[23:35] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: What is your end goal?
[23:36] <gt8ost4l> im installing drivers i need to know where system>administration
[23:37] <Jordan_U> nicomachus: Encryption will multiply corruption. A basic characteristic of encryption is that a one bit change in the input (per encrypted block) should cause a seemingly random change in all of the other bits in that block.
[23:37] <nicomachus> Jordan_U: this entire fiasco has turned me soooo far away from favoring encryption..
[23:38] <nicomachus> I mean, jesus... I could have had this fixed 2 weeks ago without it.
[23:38] <nicomachus> >insert boot-repair live cd >click ok >reboot >enjoy.
[23:41] <Bashing-om> gt8ost4l: Sounds like old documentation from the 10.04 era . What release are you running ? We now have command line tools to install drivers. What returns ' sudo ubuntu-drivers list ' .
[23:42] <gt8ost4l> i need your help its not just inf files its sys and another inf
[23:42] <gt8ost4l> im running 15.04
[23:43] <Bashing-om> gt8ost4l: Huh ? Are you compiling from source ?
[23:43] <gt8ost4l> no im using ndiswrapper
[23:44] <gt8ost4l> what that compiles it from source?
[23:45] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: Do *not* use NDISWrapper.
[23:46] <Bashing-om> gt8ost4l: Not done ndiswrapper, so that lets me out . In 15.04 what is the problem that you can not use the drivers in the software repository .
[23:46] <gt8ost4l> i cant connect to my router from ym other laptop so i need to install the drivers
[23:47] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: What wireless card are you using? Is it internal or external (USB)?
[23:47] <gt8ost4l> internal
[23:49] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: Please pastebin the output of "lspci -vnn".
[23:51] <gt8ost4l> http://pastebin.com/YQnRdbYq
[23:53] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: You have an Atheros card which is very well supported by open drives, which are included in Ubuntu by default (and are currently in use). You do *not* need any more drivers, and installing NDISWrapper is likely to break the drivers you already have.
[23:54] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: What happens when you try to connect to your wireless network?
[23:54] <gt8ost4l> it shows no wireless connections
[23:55] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: Please pastebin the output of "nm-tool".
[23:56] <gt8ost4l> its not found
[23:56] <gt8ost4l> just show me how to install the drivers
[23:57] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: You already have the proper drivers installed.
[23:57] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[23:57] <gt8ost4l> i told the other guy already
[23:57] <gt8ost4l> 15.04
[23:59] <Jordan_U> gt8ost4l: "nm-tool" is included by default, did you mistype it?
[23:59] <gt8ost4l> nope i did what you said


[14:11] <DJones> And gone
[15:11] <ikonia> @mark #ubuntu deskwizard had a problem - stated guesses as fact, wanted someone to know the answer with no information, not a good attitude


[19:18] <foo> I want to set up a personal proxy on ubuntu. Something I can use and auth with a user/pass on a specific port.
[19:19] <foo> Any suggestions on what I can use to easily set this up?
[19:20] <tomreyn> which type of proxy?
[19:21] <foo> tomreyn: for HTTP/HTTPS requests. Ideally, to be used within some python code for python requests.
[19:22] <tomreyn> apache2, nginx
[19:23] <foo> tomreyn: thanks, I'll look into nginx's set up for this.
[19:24] <tomreyn> it's probably easier / better documented with apache httpd, but YMMV
[19:33] <RoyK> squid?
[19:33] <RoyK> that is, squid is mostly for client accessing the ineternet - for reverse proxy, nginx is my favourite
[19:35] <foo> tomreyn: is what I'm after a forward proxy?
[19:35] <teward> foo: wait which direction do you want?
[19:35] <foo> tomreyn: eg. 3 machines on an external network, I want them to connect through this proxy so requests original from IP of proxy
[19:35] <teward> your computer -> Random Internet Site
[19:35] <teward> or Your computer -> VPS -> Internal Website?
[19:35] <foo> my computer -> proxy -> external site, IP gets shown to external site as IP on proxy
[19:35] <teward> because if you want to be able to access any website via another system so the 'endpoints' see your proxy IP instead of yourself you want a forward proxy
[19:35] <RoyK> foo: sounds like squid to me
[19:35] <teward> yeah you want a forward proxy which is what squid is
[19:36] <foo> RoyK: hey, been a minute. :) Thank you!
[19:46] <RoyK> foo: yeah, long time :)


[00:01] <c7p> yes i think
[00:02] <c7p> btw when you get the branch
[00:03] <c7p> the tex file that you ll be working on is under working-with-ubuntu folder (named "using-instant-messaging.tex")
[00:04] <tomswartz07> ok. splendid! Ill pull the branch tonight and ill look over it. perhaps tomorrow ill start in on it?
[00:05] <c7p> it's up to you :)
[00:06] <c7p> also don't misunderstand us if we don't respond to pings, or there isn't anyone in channel talking
[00:07] <tomswartz07> i understand- ive had my irc window open for 5 days now. haha
[00:10] <c7p> hehe we are alike
[00:12] <c7p> i g2g, good night
[00:14] <tomswartz07> goodnight c7p
[00:15] <c7p> see you all
[00:15] <godbyk> See you later, c7p!
[00:36] <tomswartz07> im having trouble making the pdf from source, and i dont quite understand why.
[00:37] <tomswartz07> can anyone verify that the newest bzr sync can be built?
[00:37] <tomswartz07> :~/Documents/ubuntu-manual$ make
[00:37] <tomswartz07> basename: extra operand `frontmatter'
[00:37] <tomswartz07> Try `basename --help' for more information.
[00:37] <tomswartz07> bzr version-info --custom --template="\\\revinfo{{revno}}{{date}}" > revision.tex
[00:37] <tomswartz07> xelatex --output-driver="xdvipdfmx -V 5" main
[00:37] <tomswartz07> /bin/bash: xelatex: command not found
[00:38] <tomswartz07> whoop- this uses xelatex?
[01:53] <godbyk> tomswartz07: Yeah, it requires xelatex.
[01:53] <godbyk> tomswartz07: You'll also want the latest upstream version instead of the Ubuntu packages.
[01:53] <godbyk> (The Ubuntu packages are woefully out of date and incomplete to boot.)
[01:54] <godbyk> tomswartz07: Installation instructions for the upstream TeX Live can be found here: http://ubuntu-manual.org/getinvolved/authors#install-texlive
[01:56] <tomswartz07> splendid! thanks! Ill read up on it all
[01:56] <godbyk> tomswartz07: Let me know if you hit any snags.
[01:56] <godbyk> tomswartz07: One gotcha: Make sure that you have the TeX Live installer create the symlinks or you'll regret it. :-)
[02:00] <tomswartz07> ok- i wont get to this till tomorrow, so ill def let you know
[02:00] <godbyk> tomswartz07: No problem. Thanks for your help!
[02:01] <tomswartz07> sure! :)
[12:08] <nisshh> c7p, hey dude
[12:09] <c7p> hey nisshh, how are you ?
[12:10] <nisshh> im good
[12:10] <nisshh> and you?
[12:14] <c7p> fine :)
[12:14]  * c7p sorry for late response, i'm writing an e-mail
[12:15] <nisshh> np
[12:15] <nisshh> just grabbing the code now
[12:15] <c7p> have you looked on what chapter/ section could you work on ?
[12:15] <c7p> ah ok
[12:16] <nisshh> well, you let me know what needs the most attention, ill be happy with that
[12:17] <nisshh> before i stopped working on the manual completely, i was managing the credits and glossary
[12:18] <nisshh> c7p, ^^^
[12:18] <c7p> now i guess i manage credits as i assign the sections
[12:18] <nisshh> godbyk, long time no see :)
[12:18] <nisshh> c7p, yeah, thats cool
[12:18] <c7p> i guess you can work on glossary again
[12:18] <c7p> till now the chapter that i think needs an eye is troubleshooting
[12:18] <nisshh> i would rather the content itself got worked on tbh, atleast right now
[12:19] <nisshh> ok
[12:19] <c7p> if you want to update some sections of the chapter let me know
[12:20] <nisshh> ok
[12:20] <nisshh> can you give me a general idea of how far we are to a complete 11.10 manual?
[12:20] <nisshh> just so i know roughly how much editing is required
[12:21] <c7p> installation chapter is think is almost finished
[12:21] <c7p> and the half ubuntu desktop chapter
[12:21] <c7p> is finished
[12:22] <nisshh> ok
[12:22] <c7p> now that i check again the manual i think getting onlint sections needs rather an editor to make minor changes rather than an author
[12:22] <c7p> online section*
[12:22] <nisshh> yeah
[12:23] <c7p> would you like to handle this section ?
[12:23] <c7p> you may check it first of course
[12:23] <nisshh> tbh, im really happy to just hack away at all of it as an overall editor
[12:24] <nisshh> although i guess focus on one section would be better for now
[12:24] <nisshh> ill start with the getting online chapter
[12:24] <nisshh> then ill do troubleshooting
[12:25] <nisshh> c7p, since i work now i can mostly only work on this on the weekends though
[12:25] <c7p> splendid, let me know how the work goes
[12:25] <nisshh> since i work full time
[12:25] <nisshh> cool.
[12:26] <c7p> ok np
[12:26] <nisshh> although i have time for an hour or two a night usually
[12:26] <nisshh> Rick is the project leader now isnt he?
[12:26] <c7p> contribute whenever you feel better
[12:27] <nisshh> yeah, for sure
[12:27] <c7p> we dont have project leader, rick is the Editor in Chief
[12:27] <nisshh> ah ok
[12:27] <nisshh> is that intentional or just because you dont have one currently?
[12:27] <c7p> i don't know
[12:27] <nisshh> fair enough
[12:28] <nisshh> whats his nick?
[12:28] <c7p> we voted for Editor in Chief before a half year, and there wasn't a need for a leader then -i guess-
[12:28] <c7p> hm
[12:28] <c7p> rickfsb i think
[12:28] <nisshh> ok
[12:28] <nisshh> i might shoot him an email
[12:29] <nisshh> i really want to get this project moving fast again
[12:29] <nisshh> not that it hasnt been :)
[12:29] <c7p> i found Rick's nick is rickfosb
[12:30] <c7p> cool
[12:30] <nisshh> ok
[12:31] <c7p> i hope the section and not chapter assignations would help us to move fast
[12:33] <nisshh> yeah
[12:33] <nisshh> its certainly a good idea
[12:41] <nisshh> far out, id forgotten how darn big tex live is
[12:50] <c7p> hehe
[18:54] <godbyk> hey, nisshh! How's it going?
[21:04] <c7p> hello all
[22:05] <c7p> hey tomswartz07
[22:08] <c7p> hey godbyk
[22:27] <godbyk> hey, c7p.
[22:27] <c7p> what's up ?
[22:29] <godbyk> not too much at the moment.  seems like I'm getting a ton of email today.
[22:30] <godbyk> how's it going with managing all the job applicants?
[22:30] <c7p> very time consuming
[22:30] <c7p> i got to respond to many people :P
[22:30] <c7p> but it goes very good
[22:31] <c7p> UbuntuOne is nice as tool also
[22:32] <c7p> when an author makes changes to a document and he saves them, they are uploaded automatically on the cloud
[22:32] <c7p> and automatically they are downloaded to my local machine
[22:32] <c7p> also a message pops up so i'm also notified
[22:36] <godbyk> Excellent!
[22:37] <godbyk> Hopefully allowing authors this new workflow will make things easier for them.
[22:37] <c7p> yeah i hope so
[22:38] <c7p> we got a mail in spanish ! do you know spanish ?
[22:38] <c7p> it's on the mailing list
[22:39] <c7p> godbyk:  ah i forgot to mention !!!!
[22:39] <c7p> we have to remove some sections from the jobs list
[22:39] <c7p> jobs page *
[22:40] <c7p> the only section with no author is micro blogging
[22:41] <godbyk> I just moderated the message and let it pass through to the mailing list.  I don't know Spanish, but Google Translate said they were offering to help with the manual.  I know we have a number of other Spanish-speaking folks on the mailing list, though, so hopefully they can jump in and help out.
[22:41] <godbyk> c7p: Should I remove them entirely or strike them out with a line (i.e., draw a line through them)?
[22:42] <godbyk> Which sections should I remove/leave on the jobs page?
[22:43] <c7p> i guess you could draw a line
[22:43] <c7p> microblogging only
[22:43] <godbyk> Okay.
[22:43] <c7p> actually and additional software
[22:43] <godbyk> 'kay
[22:44] <godbyk> c7p: http://ubuntu-manual.org/jobs  I stuck out 'The Ubuntu Desktop'. Do you like that or would you prefer that I remove them completely?
[22:45] <c7p> i hm
[22:45] <c7p> better remove ?
[22:45] <c7p> btw what if an author quits ?
[22:45] <godbyk> It doesn't make too much difference to me.  Whichever you think is less confusing.
[22:46] <c7p> shouldn't we have a list of available authors ?
[22:46] <c7p> better remove them
[22:46] <godbyk> Hopefully we will have a pool of people waiting to take their place.
[22:46] <godbyk> Okay, I'll remove them.
[22:46] <c7p> maybe you could write something about it on the jobs page
[22:46] <godbyk> c7p: like this? http://ubuntu-manual.org/jobs
[22:47] <c7p> cool
[22:47] <c7p> as easy as possible :D
[22:47] <godbyk> When you're emailing the people who are applying, perhaps you should ask if we can contact them to help fill in for an author that has to drop out.
[22:47] <godbyk> Then we can keep their name on a list and contact them if we need them to fill in.
[22:48] <c7p> sure
[22:50] <godbyk> We should probably also have a meeting sometime soon and establish our deadlines for the Oneiric manual.
[22:50] <c7p> what about arranging a meeting this weekend ?
[22:51] <c7p> the goal of it should be to answer the questions of new authors, editors
[22:51] <godbyk> We can try.  I'll be at my parents' house this weekend (lots of birthdays to celebrate), but I can probably attend a meeting.
[22:51] <c7p> and also to set deadlines
[22:51] <godbyk> That's a good idea.
[22:52] <c7p> saturday or sunday, what fits you best ?
[22:52] <godbyk> Should we email Rick and have him set up a poll?
[22:52] <godbyk> Good question, let me check.
[22:52] <c7p> we can
[22:55] <godbyk> I think we'll be having a family dinner Saturday night, but I'm not sure.
[22:56] <c7p> so sunday is better ?
[22:59] <godbyk> Well, Sunday I may be driving back, so it's a bit of a toss-up. :-)
[22:59] <godbyk> We should schedule the meeting whenever it makes the most sense for everyone else to attend.
[22:59] <godbyk> I'll try to be there if I can, but my presence isn't really required. :)
[23:00] <c7p> :) ok
[23:00] <c7p> but new authors have to meet Kevin :D
[23:01] <c7p> nevermind let's hope we will get many people to attend it
[23:01] <c7p> with all these replies to the applicants i forgot to tell Rick about the new way of contribution :(
[23:02] <c7p> i hope he won't be angry on me
[23:02] <godbyk> c7p: Not a problem. I think we had discussed it at a meeting once upon a time.
[23:03] <c7p> ok i feel obliged to send him a mail, i'm composing it
[23:17] <c7p> ok mail sent to Rick
[23:20] <godbyk> 'kay.
[23:25] <c7p> i g2g goodnight
[23:25] <c7p> see you all
[23:26] <godbyk> G'night, c7p.

[22:59] <blackboxsw> hi SRU vanguards. Community members found a regression in cloud-init 23.2 which had made it into -proposed for F, J, K and L series. I've rejected the sru bug and created an LP bug to track the fix which is now proposed in the 23.2.1 you see above. Would someone be able to review 23.2.1 queued uploads for cloud-init on those 4 series (it's a single functional commit to fix LP: #2025180)
[22:59] -ubottu:#ubuntu-release- Launchpad bug 2025180 in cloud-init (Ubuntu Mantic) "23.2: cloudinit.sources.parse_cmdline of ds=nocloud-net on kernel cmdline does not parse hyphens" [Critical, Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2025180
[23:00] <blackboxsw> ideally we want to fix the supplemental bug above on top of what's already queued in (F,J, K and L)-proposed pockets
[23:02] <blackboxsw> it's late late for r-obie so I'll probably ping ahasenack on this tomorrow if nobody is around to today's supplemental reject 23.2 review 23.2.1
[23:03] <blackboxsw> beyond this regression bug, all other verification of the original 23.2 SRU bug passed jenkins integration tests for all clouds/platforms
[23:05] <sarnold> blackboxsw: do you need a block-proposed tag on a bug to prevent the -proposed version from accidentally migrating to -updates ? (I *think* that's the tag, anyway)
[23:10] -queuebot:#ubuntu-release- Builds: Ubuntu Kylin Desktop amd64 [Mantic Daily] has been updated (20230628)
[23:30] <blackboxsw> sarnold: good pt. I'll add block-proposed too I thought verification-failed-(f|j|k|l) would have also prevented hitting -updates
[23:32] <sarnold> blackboxsw: I think the block-proposed is a stronger statement that a human says something shouldn't happen, and encourage a more-detailed second look before things are forced
[23:33] <blackboxsw> ahh I see I'm missing `regression-proposed` here too. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates?action=show&redirect=StableReleaseUpdate#Verification
[23:35] <blackboxsw> maybe regression-proposed is what you mean.
[23:35] <blackboxsw> tag added
[23:36] <sarnold> it might be block-proposed-SERIES https://ubuntu-archive-team.ubuntu.com/pending-sru.html
[23:36] <sarnold> I only ever see people mention 'block-proposed' but that might be shorthand for the longer form
[23:42] <blackboxsw> all tags added :)
