[00:03] <MasterPhi> K350: they use Tinder
[00:03] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Great .. Enable r/w '  mount -o remount,rw / (Note there is no space after the comma.) .
[00:04] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: with / ?
[00:04] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Yeah the '/' is the "root" directory .
[00:04] <DJ_SpaceDash> hey
[00:04] <DJ_SpaceDash> i need some help plz
[00:05] <DJ_SpaceDash> i have my SD card formatted as NTFS, but when i try to mount it on my laptop
[00:05] <DJ_SpaceDash> i just get this error message saying it couldn't find the NTFS signature
[00:05] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: mount -o remount,rw /             - ok
[00:06] <reisio> ...
[00:06] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Next is to install our tool . ' apt-get install pastebinit '
[00:06] <_Roc> can someone help me with a antivirus
[00:07] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: what command are you mounting with?
[00:07] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: no need to sudo because i'm root ?
[00:07] <reisio> _Roc: ?
[00:07] <DJ_SpaceDash> reisio: im not mounting trough console
[00:07] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Right on . no 'sudo' .
[00:07] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: what're you mounting through?
[00:07] <DJ_SpaceDash> reisio: the built in disks utility
[00:07] <_Roc> what should i be using?
[00:07] <DJ_SpaceDash> reisio: should i send a screenshot with the error on screen?
[00:08] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: mounting through commands is more useful for debugging
[00:08] <Bashing-om> TJ-: Sure glad you are back !
[00:08] <reisio> _Roc: clamav
[00:08] <_Roc> and how do i remove threats once i've finished scanning?
[00:08] <DJ_SpaceDash> reisio: here's the disk utility with the error
[00:08] <DJ_SpaceDash> http://i.imgur.com/29lQtQG.png
[00:09] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: can't connect to the internet
[00:09] <reisio> _Roc: well, if you remove them you won't be able to investigate them at all
[00:09] <DJ_SpaceDash> reisio: here's the command disk utility used: mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000" "/dev/mmcblk0p1" "/media/foxy/NO NAME"
[00:09] <DJ_SpaceDash> shall i run that in terminal?
[00:10] <reisio> _Roc: see --move, or --remove
[00:10] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: how can i boot in recovery, in terminal, with internet?
[00:10] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: no, try sudo ntfs-3g /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
[00:10] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: In the recovery console is there still the option - among all the others - to enable networking ? -
[00:10] <TJ-> Bashing-om: I'm not... thought I'd finished with writing the GRUB cryptodisk patch, tested it, all OK, then realised I didn't use an existing function I ought to have - so having to wait up whilst another build is running :s
[00:11] <DJ_SpaceDash> reisio: here's the error it gives

[00:13] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: no, try sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
[00:13] <_Roc> is clamTK no bueno?
[00:13] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: try sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
[00:13] <TJ-> !paste | DJ_SpaceDash
[00:13] <reisio> _Roc: it's a frontend, it's fine
[00:13] <_Roc> it seems to only identify, but not give me a option to get rid of

[00:14] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: i'm in the terminal, again, and should have network   --- should i re enter the rw command?
[00:15] <DJ_SpaceDash> reisio: here's the previous command (ntfs-3g) http://paste.ubuntu.com/12317565/
[00:15] <_Roc> how can i run clamAV from the terminal
[00:15] <Bashing-om> jean yeah . re-enable r/w .
[00:15] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: try sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
[00:15] <reisio> _Roc: should suffice: freshclam; clamscan -ir -l ~/clamlog top/dir/
[00:15] <DJ_SpaceDash> reisio: the mount command just keeps on loading
[00:15] <DJ_SpaceDash> its stuck
[00:15] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: run 'mount' and see if it's already mounted
[00:16] <DJ_SpaceDash> cannot interrupt with ^c
[00:16] <DJ_SpaceDash> nvm it quit
[00:17] <DJ_SpaceDash> reisio: doesnt look like it so far
[00:17] <DJ_SpaceDash> !pastebinit
[00:17] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: in terminal again, no internet..
[00:17] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: what doesn't look like whta?
[00:17] <reisio> s/whta/what
[00:17] <DJ_SpaceDash> looks like it isnt mounted, as i cant find it
[00:18] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: "sudo blkid /dev/mmcblk0p1"
[00:18] <DJ_SpaceDash> yeah no need for sudo :)
[00:18] <DJ_SpaceDash> im running as root
[00:18] <DJ_SpaceDash> aka sudo -s
[00:18] <DJ_SpaceDash> its easier
[00:18] <reisio> no need to tell us that
[00:18] <DJ_SpaceDash> yeah
[00:18] <DJ_SpaceDash> just noting :P
[00:19] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: please don't use line-feeds as punctuation
[00:19] <DJ_SpaceDash> and its just frozen again
[00:19] <reisio> is this like a raspberry pi?
[00:19] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: what are line feeds?
[00:19] <reisio> some nice and slow underpowered 'puter?
[00:19] <reisio> DJ_SpaceDash: 'enter'
[00:19] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: OK, it'll come back eventually. Then check the kernel log for I/O errors: "tail /var/log/kern.log"
[00:19] <DJ_SpaceDash> oh
[00:19] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Shucks .. did you choose the option to eneable wth networking ? Any hey my bad .. that option also enables read/write to the file system !
[00:20] <_Roc> what does it mean to be locked by another process?
[00:20] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: it gives lots of stuff
[00:20] <TJ-> _Roc: another process currently has exclusive access to the file for writing
[00:20] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: Yes, good. Tell us what it reports (you don't need to type the value of any UUID though!)
[00:20] <Bashing-om> _Roc: More than one instance of the package manager active ?
[00:21] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: i also see "Driver mmcblk needs updating, please use bus type methods
[00:21] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: i also see "Driver mmcblk needs updating, please use bus type methods"
[00:21] <reisio> _Roc: means your package manager is antiquated :p
[00:21] <DJ_SpaceDash> whoa what happened there?
[00:21] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: Yes; a lazy kernel dev responsible for that driver hasn't kept up. Don't worry about it
[00:21] <DJ_SpaceDash> oh ok
[00:21] <_Roc> antiquated?
[00:21] <DJ_SpaceDash> is it ok if i upload it to pastebin?
[00:22] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: what if i purge the nvidia graphic drivers, start with basic default graphic drivers, and go back to the unity desktop?
[00:22] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: Yes, please do, that is easiest
[00:22] <_Roc> sry for my ignorance
[00:22] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: the latest line says eth0 link up
[00:22] <DJ_SpaceDash> meaning i plugged my lan cable in
[00:23] <DJ_SpaceDash> so i guess it didnt output anything since i started chatting
[00:23] <TJ-> _Roc:  that warning can sometimes occur if the system is doing a background package update check when you try to run a manual command that also needs access to the package lists
[00:23] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: anyways here's the paste: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12317630/
[00:23] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: What we realy want to do is look at the log file and see what went wrong . Then take a correct action .
[00:24] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: blkid is still loading
[00:24] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: OK, that's a good sign if there are no I/O errors. That suggests the issue is in a corrupted/unexpected value in the file-system data itself
[00:24] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: does that mean i can't get my data back?
[00:24] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: since my SD worked fine on my windows PC
[00:24] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: how to boot in recovery with internet?
[00:25] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: no, it possibly means the MMC device itself isn't reading the data correctly. Those errors in the log don't look promising, although they are timed earlier.
[00:25] <rodrygo> ola tem gente do brasil?
[00:25] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: could dust be causing this?
[00:25] <rodrygo> aqui ?
[00:26] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: since the SD card slot (MMC device) worked just fine earlier
[00:26] <bazhang> !br | rodrygo
[00:26] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: Can you do "pastebinit <( dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p1 count=1 | hexdump -C )"
[00:26] <DJ_SpaceDash> ?
[00:27] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: wait
[00:27] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: I'd doubt it, but anything's possible.
[00:27] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: in console?
[00:27] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: yes. that command will automatically pastebin the command results for us
[00:27] <DJ_SpaceDash> whoa
[00:28] <DJ_SpaceDash> i acidently pulled it out pushed it back
[00:28] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Well .. I have another thought .. reboot to the grub boot menu . 'e' key for edit mode -> boot parameters screen, arrow down to the line starting with 'linux' and arrow across to the terms 'quiet splash' delete these terms  and insert the term ' systemd.unit=multi-user.target ' . Key combo ctl+x to continue to the TTY1 terminal ( I do hope !) .
[00:28] <DJ_SpaceDash> i got a notification that it got mounted
[00:28] <DJ_SpaceDash> but i got an I/O error
[00:28] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: also no files are appearing
[00:28] <mikubuntu> having a problem with blender crashing on launch after the first session. i've re downloaded the tarbiz2 several times, and the first launch after download is fine. but if i close the program, it fails to relaunch. i got the tarbiz2 directly from http://blender.org
[00:29] <DJ_SpaceDash> !pastebininit
[00:29] <DJ_SpaceDash> !pastebinit
[00:29] <reisio> mikubuntu: tarbz2's aren't how it's done
[00:29] <belly_bay_local> img...
[00:29] <belly_bay_local> omg..
[00:30] <reisio> mikubuntu: enable the 'universe' repository, and install the 'blender' package
[00:30] <MACscr|lappy> ok, i think i have unity working now, but still no menu or taskbar showing for it
[00:30] <MACscr|lappy> cant figure out how to fix it
[00:30] <MACscr|lappy> im switching back from lubuntu to ubuntu
[00:31] <mikubuntu> reisio: the repository doesn't have up to date versions apparently.
[00:31] <reisio> mikubuntu: what version do you need and why
[00:31] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: i'm getting permission denied on the pastebinit command
[00:31] <Bashing-om> !latest | mikubuntu
[00:32] <Osmodivs> ho. Is there a AMD PPA for my new Radeon R9 380? I can't find any, there is on tutorial about manual install, like turning off X and stuff, but that's too much for me right now.
[00:32] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: it seems i can't enable networking
[00:32] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: You said you're root, so that shouldn't happen
[00:33] <reisio> aims for stability, hurrr :p
[00:33] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: just realised i was on another terminal window :P
[00:33] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: my bad
[00:33] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12317699/
[00:33] <Bashing-om> Osmodivs: Thought that was fixed now . See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2244700 ; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2278589 .

[00:34] <danielle31> every so often my computer shuts down without warning. how can I see what event triggered the last shutdown event?
[00:34] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Lemme scratch head some more .. Ya got to terminal, yes ? BUT still no networking ?
[00:34] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: OK, that shows the first sector of an NTFS
[00:34] <DJ_SpaceDash> JeanVM: did you try to reload the networking manager?
[00:34] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: in recovery mode, i can choose root option, but for some reason network option isnt working
[00:35] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Yuk .. this wired or a WIFI connection ?
[00:35] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: so, the problem is either corrupted data somewhere in the file-system's superblock (MFT), *or* the data is being corrupted as it is read from the card into memory (which could tally with seeing errors in the kernel log)
[00:35] <JeanMV> DJ_SpaceDash: i'm trying to boot in recovery mode with network
[00:35] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: wifi
[00:36] <TJ-> JeanMV: Bashing-om Use "nmcli" to bring up the wifi connection
[00:36] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: should i try blowing into the MMC reader?
[00:36] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: because it might've collected some dus
[00:37] <_Roc> oh boy new issue,  another username in my system - help
[00:37] <TJ-> JeanMV: Use "nmcli con show" to list the connections, identify the Wifi connection, then do e.g. "nmcli con up id wireless.lan.iam.tj" <<< that's my connection name - replace with yours
[00:37] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: its fixed
[00:38] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: sure, but don't spit :)
[00:38] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: turned out the problem got caused by dust :)
[00:38] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: mucky pup
[00:38] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: sorry if i annoyed you or smth :P
[00:38] <mikubuntu> it does seem strange that the application would launch on first instance, but not after that
[00:38] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: not at all, glad you got it sorted out... but keep that poor PC cleaner!
[00:38] <dm_comp> Hi, I can't find this app in the ubuntu software center http://extcalc-linux.sourceforge.net/ , it's a front end to concalc

[00:39] <mikubuntu> hiya TJ- long time no see
[00:39] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: mostly in very dusty places

[00:40] <mikubuntu> TJ-: au contraire, they are arriving already broken !!

[00:40] <cybergig22> Okay so I need help with a networking problem I am having, I have a Linksys WUSB6300 adapter for my desktop linux box running ubuntu 12.10 it worked in 12.04 but since the upgrade to 12.10 it broke the adapther or rather the ability to read the adaptar within all of my linux machines... I was wondering if there was a way to get it working once again.
[00:40] <JeanMV> i can do both wired and wifi
[00:41] <JeanMV> if wired is easier i just plug it
[00:41] <JeanMV> Bashing-om:
[00:41] <TJ-> !eol | cybergig22 I'm afraid 12.10 is *way* out of support
[00:41] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: above
[00:41] <TJ-> JeanMV: did you see my commands to enable it using nmcli?
[00:42] <DJ_SpaceDash> cybergig, get 15.04, or wait for 15.10 :)
[00:42] <DJ_SpaceDash> so you get quite some time of support
[00:42] <cybergig22> I might not be running 12.10.. where can I find the ubuntu version within ubuntu that im running
[00:43] <TJ-> cybergig22: "cat /etc/issue"
[00:43] <JeanMV> TJ-: yes, libnm-glib-WARNING, GLib-GObject-CRITICAL, nmcli-CRITICAL
[00:44] <TJ-> JeanMV: hmmm, that system isn't a happy one, is it?
[00:44] <JeanMV> TJ-: i just tried to install nvidia drivers, otherwise its clean
[00:44] <cybergig22> ok im running 14.10
[00:44] <cybergig22> rather
[00:45] <cybergig22> not 12.10
[00:45] <DJ_SpaceDash> sounds a lot better ;D
[00:45] <DJ_SpaceDash> oh shit
[00:45] <DJ_SpaceDash> i wanted to format my SD card
[00:45] <kgms2> question about gpg symmetic encryption- it appears to only support keys generated from passpharases??
[00:45] <DJ_SpaceDash> had my hard ddrive selected >.<
[00:45] <cybergig22> is there a way to get the Linksys WUSB6300 to work again?
[00:45] <DJ_SpaceDash> that would've hurt if i clicked format there :/
[00:46] <TJ-> cybergig22: close, but no cigar! 14.10 went out of support in July
[00:46] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: wait, it did?
[00:46] <DJ_SpaceDash> whoa
[00:46] <TJ-> cybergig22: consult the system log-files under /var/log/ there may be clues
[00:47] <TJ-> JeanMV: did the "nmcli con show" list any network connections, or just show you errors?
[00:47] <DJ_SpaceDash> :O
[00:47] <DJ_SpaceDash> whats happening :O
[00:48] <cybergig22> ..... ok I gues i'll be upgrading then
[00:48] <cybergig22> bbl
[00:48] <DJ_SpaceDash> what's going on :/
[00:48] <TJ-> JeanMV: How did you boot the system? did you use Bashing-om's suggestion for starting with the systemd multi-user.target ?
[00:48] <JeanMV> TJ-: i get error msg
[00:49] <DJ_SpaceDash> ok im in trouble again
[00:49] <JeanMV> TJ-: i boot in recovery mode, root
[00:49] <DJ_SpaceDash> after formatting my SD to FAT32
[00:49] <DJ_SpaceDash> when i put my files bac
[00:49] <DJ_SpaceDash> when i put my files bacj
[00:49] <DJ_SpaceDash> when i put my files back
[00:49] <DJ_SpaceDash> i get 'destination is read only'
[00:49] <TJ-> JeanMV: OK, that explains it then. I thought you'd booted to the multi-user.target.
[00:50] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: how do i fix destination is read only?
[00:51] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: I am back .. looking to see how in 15.04 to export the /var/log/Xorg.0.log fole . ( If it even exist in 15.04 !) .
[00:51] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: I wonder if the write-detect switch in the card reader is not reading correctly. It's a well known problem where the springiness of the sensor arm relaxes and reports the card always write-protected. usually the solution is to open up the card reader and *gently* push the arm into the card slot by about 1mm with a pin, so it engages correctly with cards when they are inserted.
[00:51] <Bashing-om> fole/file*
[00:51] <TJ-> Bashing-om: Yes, it does :)
[00:52] <cybergig22> I question your support though cause on the website the recomended download version is 14.04.3
[00:52] <cybergig22> im using 14.10
[00:52] <cybergig22> so TJ are you high?
[00:52] <bazhang> !eolupgrades | cybergig22
[00:52] <Bashing-om> TJ-: JeanMV I want to read that file and see why the install of the Nvidia driver from repo failed .
[00:52] <TJ-> Bashing-om: I just recommended to JeanMV to use nmcli to enable the Wifi, not realising the PC is still in recovery mode. I think it would be good to reboot with your multi-user.target proposal, so the wifi can be enabled
[00:53] <bazhang> its not supported, upgrade it cybergig22
[00:53] <juanhalo> hi
[00:53] <juanhalo> holaaaaaaaaa
[00:53] <_Roc> any reason there would be a user nagios at startup?
[00:53] <TJ-> cybergig22: question all you like; but read the information under End of Life.
[00:53] <cybergig22> And im asking how is it not supported when its your main download distribution...
[00:53] <juanhalo> no
[00:53] <Bashing-om> TJ-: JeanMV As I advised JeanMV I am floundering in 15.04 .. but blundering my way forward .
[00:54] <TJ-> _Roc: if nagios package was installed, yes.
[00:54] <bazhang> cybergig22, read the link, its not supported here
[00:54] <TJ-> Bashing-om: what you suggested to me as the kernel command line in -discuss seems sensible. Go for it :)
[00:54] <_Roc> but why create a completely different user?
[00:54] <TJ-> !lts | cybergig22
[00:55] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: Wait, if it is reading incorrectly, does it show up as read only for the user in permissions?
[00:55] <TJ-> _Roc: privilege separation. process running as nagios can only access files owned by itself, no others, unless their permissions are relaxed
[00:56] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: if i go to properties it says its read/write
[00:56] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: no, read-only for a user is because the file-system mount is owned by root
[00:56] <_Roc> ty TJ, how would i know the login info for that?
[00:56] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: ?
[00:56] <JeanMV> TJ-: ?
[00:56] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: root will be able to write to the file-system, if the device isn't write-protected, and it is mounted read-write, *and* there are no I/O errors.
[00:57] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: shall i try to create a file as root?
[00:57] <TJ-> _Roc: there is none. The system service daemon runs the nagios process as the nagios user. There is no associated 'log-in' as regular users get
[00:57] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: try "sudo touch /path/to/mountpoint/test"
[00:58] <_Roc> can i remove this from this system?
[00:58] <TJ-> _Roc: Not if nagios is installed
[00:58] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: the mount point is /
[00:58] <_Roc> and if not, why is it there?
[00:58] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: the mountpoint of the SD card? no it isn't, / is the mountpoint of the root file-system
[00:59] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: that's what disks utility tells me
[00:59] <TJ-> _Roc: what does "dpkg -l nagios" tell you?
[00:59] <_Roc> none matching
[00:59] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: fire the GUI and use the terminal; you can believe that!
[00:59] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: "mount | grep mmcblk0p1"
[00:59] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Let is try and get to a terminal . forget about the recovery console . Rebbot to grub's boot menu, with the latest kernel selected depress the 'e' key for edot mode -> boot options screen ? Mor to follow if we get to theis screen .
[01:00] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: how do i do that?
[01:00] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: 'touch' doesnt output anything
[01:01] <TJ-> _Roc: "getent passwd nagios"
[01:01] <kandinski> hi, I installed 15.04 with my /home dir from 14.04, and now both the media keys and some shortcuts (ctrl-alt-T for terminal, for instance) don't work
[01:01] <kandinski> how can I recover those?
[01:01] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: no, it just 'touches' a file. Check if the file was created
[01:02] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: if the file /path/to/mountpoint/test was created, you know root can write to the file-sytem, but users cannot
[01:02] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: it created a file called test
[01:02] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: I say again. reboot to the grub boot menu screen. In this screen with the latest kernel (14.04 has an asteresk to the left) , depress the 'e' key -> boot parameters screen .
[01:02] <_Roc> TJ nagios:x:1001:1002::/home/nagios:
[01:02] <TJ-> DJ_SpaceDash: so now you know
[01:03] <TJ-> _Roc: at some point you've had nagios installed then
[01:03] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: OK, i'm in boot parameter screen
[01:03] <_Roc> what can i do?
[01:03] <_Roc> how can i remove any remaining
[01:05] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: thanks :)
[01:05] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: which parameter should i choose?
[01:05] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Great; now aroow down to the line starting with "linux" and arrow acriss to the terms "quiet splash" replace these with the term " systemd.unit=multi-user.target " . then to continue the boot process is key combo ctl+x . I do expect that you boot now to a terminal where you can log in with your credentials .
[01:05] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: i can finally listen my music again on my phone :)
[01:07] <DJ_SpaceDash> TJ: damn my music library is so big it takes ages to copy trough termial
[01:08] <TJ-> _Roc: check for the packages again, using a wildcard search "dpkg -l 'nagios*'  "
[01:08] <DJ_SpaceDash> anyways ill go to sleep soon
[01:08] <DJ_SpaceDash> its 3:08 AM right now :)
[01:08] <_Roc> once again, nothing
[01:08]  * TJ- is gone - GRUB boot loader testing again
[01:08] <DJ_SpaceDash> cya TJ
[01:09] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: i did, it kind of load, there is the purple screen of ubuntu, nothing else
[01:09] <DJ_SpaceDash> JeanVM i dont even get that screen at all :/
[01:11] <DJ_SpaceDash> goodnight everyone!
[01:11] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Yikes ! not at all what I expected or desired . OK .. plan D -> reboot to grub's boot parameter screen, and replace "quiet splash" with the term "nomodeset" .. ctl+x to continue to the GUI login screen. Does this work ?
[01:11] <DJ_SpaceDash> (its 3:11AM)
[01:11] <DJ_SpaceDash> goodnight everyone!
[01:11] <DJ_SpaceDash> im out
[01:13] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: yes
[01:14] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: when you login here .. does the desk top start ? degraded graphics is OK at this point .
[01:15] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: i got to the login screen, logged in, something loads, and i go back to login screen
[01:17] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: That do seem to indicate it is more of an authorization issue than a graphics issue ... what results with key combo ctl+alt+F1 ? Does this activate a console interface ?
[01:18] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: yes
[01:20] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: i logged in
[01:20] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Great ! .. run terminal command 'ls -al /home/<the_user_name> ' . Are all the files there NOT owned by "root" ? ( the file '..' is owned by "root" _ .
[01:21] <JeanMV> most of files are .xxxxxx
[01:21] <ahmetalpbalkan> Hi, I'm trying to update the kernel, I did: "apt-get install linux-image-3.19.0-26-generic" and had to update /boot/grub/menu.lst manually (because it said it did but it was still the old version)
[01:21] <ahmetalpbalkan> I rebooted yet it still picks up the old kernel version (3.5.0-17-generic) for some reason, any ideas why?
[01:23] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: YUK ! .. OK do we have networking ? 'sudo apt-get install pastebinit' I had best look at that output from "ls -al /home/XXX" .
[01:24] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: i installed pastebinit
[01:24] <bruce_lee> \(^_^)/ @all
[01:24] <Bashing-om> ahmetalpbalkan: 3.5 is so old .. we must wonder what releae and distribution you are running >
[01:24] <ahmetalpbalkan> Bashing-om: I upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04
[01:24] <bruce_lee> I just made a "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[01:24] <ahmetalpbalkan> lol I even did "apt-get purge linux-image-3.5.0-17-generic"
[01:25] <ahmetalpbalkan> it still boots into this
[01:25] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: Hey hey .. we do make headway ! What is the username that you logged into the system with ?
[01:25] <bruce_lee> during installation I set german as my default language, it seems to me that some parts of the desktop are still in english
[01:25] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: jean
[01:25] <bruce_lee> what did I forget to install?
[01:25] <robert45> hi guys, my software RAID6 failed and Im unable to start it, does anyone know how to fix this? http://pastie.org/10406429
[01:26] <Bashing-om> JeanMV: run 'ls -al /home/jean | pastebinit ' . The result is a URL back to terminal . Pass that link back here and I will look at the file .
[01:27] <Bashing-om> ahmetalpbalkan: Terminal command 'ls -al / ' to see what the system has set for the booting kernel ; and ' ls -al /boot' to see what is available .
[01:28] <JeanMV> Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12317953/
[01:28] <robert45> heres my --examine output: http://pastie.org/10406430
[01:28] <Bashing-om> JanC: look'n at http://pastie.org/10406430 .
[01:29] <ahmetalpbalkan> Bashing-om: ls -al / shows they're symlinked to what I want
[01:29] <ahmetalpbalkan> 'ls -al /boot' shows that 3.5 is indeed gone
[01:29] <ahmetalpbalkan> but if I reboot it's still 3.5
[01:30] <ahmetalpbalkan> that's what /proc/version and motd message thinks
[01:30] <Ben64> ahmetalpbalkan: what is the output of 'uname -a'
[01:30] <ahmetalpbalkan> Linux alp 3.5.0-17-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 9 19:31:23 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[01:31] <Ben64> are you running on a vm or anything like that
[01:32] <ahmetalpbalkan> Ben64: yep, VM
[01:32] <Ben64> it might be using the kernel from the host depending on what type of vm it is
[01:32] <ahmetalpbalkan> hmm this is digitalocean cloud
[01:32] <schi> hi
[01:32] <ahmetalpbalkan> they must be supporting newer kernels too
[01:32] <ahmetalpbalkan> let me talk to their support
[01:33] <ahmetalpbalkan> this theory makes more sense
[01:37] <ahmetalpbalkan> Ben64: wait, actually 3.5 is not even installed
[01:37] <ahmetalpbalkan> how can it possibly boot into that one
[01:37] <ahmetalpbalkan> I apt-get purge'd it
[01:37] <robert45> anyone?
[01:38] <Ben64> ahmetalpbalkan: because it might be using the kernel from the host, like i said
[01:38] <JeanMV> d
[01:38] <ahmetalpbalkan> Ben64: hmm I see, I didn't knew they could do that
[01:38] <JeanMV> bash
[01:54] <mikubuntu> and when i say slow. i. mean. slow. http://ibin.co/2F0IPLWQLoNd
[01:55] <BurgCastellum> good morning everyone...just testing ubuntu ...
[02:04] <linos> also if i find a deb file and download it thru wget or by clicking on it will it be smart enough like apt-get to download and install any dependences it needs to run/install correctly or will i run into dependency hell
[02:06] <linos> I have deb files and rpm's that are not in the standard repo's or any repo's at all and was curious if there was some dependencies mssing for them if the .deb when installing would be smart enough to install them. Or will it just print something like you need this and that dependencies thus making me have to manually have to figure out all the dependences / extra .deb files
[02:07] <jason_> how can I monitor my (nvidia) video card's VRAM usage?
[02:07] <linos> I know apt-get takes care of all the deb's but if you only got the .deb to install curious if it could fail
[02:07] <linos> I think it can
[02:07] <Ben64> linos: depends on the deb file, be prepared to figure it out on your own
[02:08] <linos> so then why is apt-get figure it out but the deb being installed cann't?
[02:08] <Ben64> because apt-get uses repositories
[02:10] <chris__> i need help with my desktop running ubuntu 15.04 i installed it and was able to reboot and everything no issues than today for some odd reason i get a usb enumerate error and i cant even boot to desktop
[02:11] <linos> so if you have just no repo and just download the .deb if it couldn't install it will tell you the dependences you have to resolve.. but in most cases downloading each library one at a time leads to tons of different .deb needing to be install this one depends on that one depends on that one ,..so on. So the only practical way is to uses an apt-get repo in 90% of cases
[02:11] <Ben64> pretty much
[02:11] <linos> labrary being package .deb addtion file
[02:11] <chris__> ?
[02:11] <chris__> me?
[02:13] <linos> so then why do websites like oracle provide linux software as .deb , .rpm ,...etc seems if they fail your screwed they should just tell you to go to the repo and hand there software to ubuntu repo's
[02:13] <lhuichicoy> Hi everyone!
[02:14] <arooni> hey folks;  i used gnome-tweak-tool to remap caps lock to an extra control key (i like this), but can i move the CAPS LOCK key to another key on my kkeyboard (say f10 etc)?
[02:14] <linos> unless they know for sure there .deb ,.rpm are self contained or contain only dependencies specific that everybody normally has built into there systems so your never going to have any issues
[02:16] <chris__> i installed ubuntu 15.05 on my desktop yesterday i had no issues restarting and shutting down my desktop but today i get a usb enumerate error -71 and it takes me to the cli as root and says options that ive already tried i need help on figuring out why i suddenly cant boot my desktop
[02:22] <chris__> hello
[02:26] <chris__> i installed ubuntu 15.05 on my desktop yesterday i had no issues restarting and shutting down my desktop but today i get a usb enumerate error -71 and it takes me to the cli as root and says options that ive already tried i need help on figuring out why i suddenly cant boot my desktop

[02:30] <chris__> phew ive been in here for about 30 min im going to go to a different channel
[02:30] <Ben64> !patience
[02:31] <phew> okay will go to forums thnx
[02:31] <OneM_Industries> Hey, how can I set it up so that I can remote/ssh into a Ubuntu machine from another Ubuntu machine?
[02:31] <Ben64> OneM_Industries: install openssh-server
[02:32] <OneM_Industries> Ah ha. Thank you!
[02:32] <OneM_Industries> So, I install that, and I am good?
[02:32] <chris__> or putty
[02:32] <Ben64> no, not putty
[02:32] <chris__> Ben64 why
[02:32] <OneM_Industries> Putty is Windows.
[02:32] <chris__> its also on ubuntu
[02:32] <Ben64> because it doesn't provide what OneM_Industries asked for
[02:33] <chris__> in the software manager
[02:33] <OneM_Industries> I want a SSH server package, not the client.
[02:33] <chris__> also filezilla
[02:33] <chris__> oh
[02:33] <Ben64> still no
[02:33] <chris__> nm i was why off sorry
[02:34] <OneM_Industries> Ie, I am wanting to set it up so I can help with another machine without getting up from my chair.
[02:34] <chris__> nice
[02:35] <OneM_Industries> Also, how would I use the Remmina remote client to remote into another machine? BRB.
[02:36] <OneM_Industries> Back.
[02:37] <OneM_Industries> So, the remote desktop thing is related.
[02:38] <Ben64> ubuntu comes with vino, vnc server, you can enable it
[02:38] <OneM_Industries> Ah ha! Vino?
[02:38] <OneM_Industries> Bingo.
[02:39] <OneM_Industries> Thank you!
[02:46] <OneM_Industries> Hey, I set up openssh on the machine and am trying to log into it, but when I use the root password and try to login to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>it gives me an invalid password error.
[02:46] <OneM_Industries> What is going on here?
[02:51] <chris__> i dont mean to keep asking but i installed ubuntu 15.04 yesterday i had no issues shutting down and restarting so forth and today when i boot it up i get usb enumurate error -71 and i cant get to the desktop i know this is the wrong channel but i was in the ubuntu channel and i was waiting for almost 40 min
[02:51] <Sazpaimon> I'm looking for a reccommendation on a remote desktop software that will work well with displaying video on the server machine
[02:51] <Sazpaimon> VNC just doesn't cut it
[02:52] <Sazpaimon> it doesnt need to have remote audio either, just display the video smooth enough without bringing down the experience to a crawl
[02:56] <Ben64> OneM_Industries: root is disabled by default, and for good reason
[02:57] <chris__> good luck asking ive been here for almost an hour to fix my problem but no answer
[02:59] <OerHeks> chris__, could this be caused by a device on an USB 3 port?
[02:59] <chris__> not sure i didnt unplug any usb what i tried to do is complety shut down and remove all of the usb ports and then reconnected and i still get the error
[03:01] <chris__> DerHeksreally wierd it didnt happen yesterday but all of a sudden today it didnt want to boot
[03:02] <iri> hello there. i got a new pc. with a nvidia gtx 960.
[03:02] <OerHeks> chris__, maybe it has something to do with the kernel update yesterday/today
[03:02] <iri> unfortunately, linux does not seem to wrok very well with my nvidia.
[03:02] <iri> ubuntu will boot fine with my intel onboard.
[03:02] <iri> but if i switch to the nvidia card it just shits itself.
[03:03] <iri> it passes grub, but then when it's about to start loading, it goes to a weird screen showing the kernel messages. and then gets stuck there...
[03:03] <Ben64> iri: laptop?
[03:03] <iri> i then have to reboot, and switch to the onboard gfx to proceed.
[03:03] <iri> no desktop.
[03:03] <iri> i also installed the proprietary drivers of nvidia from the ppa. didn't help.
[03:03] <Ben64> then disable the intel graphics totally
[03:03] <iri> hm
[03:03] <iri> does it matter?
[03:03] <Ben64> yep
[03:04] <Ben64> iri: and which ppa did you use
[03:07] <OneM_Industries> Ben64: How would I enable it?
[03:08] <OneM_Industries> I often need to be root to sort out issues, as this is a fairly new machine and still has teething troubles.
[03:08] <Ben64> then use sudo
[03:12] <iri> Ben64: ehm i used https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[03:12] <iri> Ben64: ok i disabled the onboard gfx and now it works!
[03:12] <iri> i can successfuly boot with my nvidia!!!
[03:12] <iri> Ben64: i have another challenge for you!
[03:12] <iri> Ben64: i first installed win8.1 on my pc. i left some free space. and i just installed ubuntu.i
[03:13] <iri> it seems like ubuntu didn't realize that there is a bootable windows partition on disk.
[03:13] <iri> and just ignored it.
[03:13] <iri> so i don't get the chance to pick it.
[03:13] <robert45> anyone familiar with RAID?
[03:13] <iri> did i fuck it up?
[03:13] <iri> or is there a way to instruct grub to boot my windows?
[03:14] <Ben64> iri: first off, try to watch the language in this channel. uh, it should have detected it automagically, did you maybe install one with UEFI and the other not?
[03:14] <iri> ugh.
[03:15] <iri> it gave me a warning about UEFI in the installation. i choose to not do it, because it might interfere with some other OSes, as it said.
[03:15] <iri> so maybe win was in UEFI?
[03:15] <iri> is this fixable?
[03:16] <Ben64> i don't use uefi, don't know much about it, maybe if you wait around here someone will pop in who can give  you more info
[03:16] <OneM_Industries> Win8 and 8.1 use UEFI.
[03:16] <lotuspsychje> iri: if you single install ubuntu disable secureboot + fastboot in bios
[03:16] <Ben64> from oem, yes. it doesn't have to be though
[03:17] <lotuspsychje> !raid | robert45
[03:17] <linos> so they much just have a few test computers with different linux version and different linux distro's of the major ones redhat, ubuntu , debian ,...etc and just test downloading and install on those if they can with no problem then they assume all of the computers with those versions or os's will beable to have the same affect
[03:17] <OerHeks> doing UEFI should be pretty easy > http://itsfoss.com/install-ubuntu-1404-dual-boot-mode-windows-8-81-uefi/
[03:17] <lotuspsychje> linos: we invite you to try ubuntu desktop
[03:18] <iri> OerHeks: can i do it on an already installed ubuntu?
[03:18] <iri> or do i hafve to reinstall?
[03:18] <robert45> ubottu Thanks, I already looked at them but I dont seem to start it. Im looking for someone with deep experience in software RAID
[03:19] <lotuspsychje> iri: if you messed with uefi settings after ubuntu install, you need a fresh reinstall
[03:19] <robert45> well, lotuspsychje it is :)
[03:19] <cfhowlett> linos, or install a single OS + virtualbox + as many test OS as you want.
[03:19] <lotuspsychje> robert45: its best to repeat your issue to the channel once in a while, so others can read
[03:19] <OerHeks> iri read that paper, it shows howto make a partition to put some UEFI file there, i think reinstall is the best after that
[03:20] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: good morning mate
[03:20] <iri> OerHeks: will do thx.
[03:20] <cfhowlett> yowza^2 lotuspsychje !!
[03:20] <cfhowlett> wait, morning?  You in China too?
[03:21] <lotuspsychje> lol
[03:21] <lotuspsychje> 5h21
[03:23] <lotuspsychje> robert45: shoot your specific issue to the channel mate
[03:26] <robert45> lotuspsychje how good are you with software RAID?
[03:26] <lotuspsychje> robert45: thats not what i suggested...ask your issue in the channel so other users can try to help also
[03:26] <cfhowlett> robert45, I suspect the #ubuntu-server channel has more RAID users than #ubuntu does
[03:27] <robert45> thanks
[03:36] <OneM_Industries> For some reason, Remmina is complaining about not being able to connect to the RDP server at <IP_ADDRESS>, even when trying to connect to another box. Any ideas?
[03:39] <lotuspsychje> OneM_Industries: be carefull with remote software, use ssh instead
[03:39] <OneM_Industries> I actually need to use remote for this.
[03:39] <lotuspsychje> OneM_Industries: one time teamviewer could help you perhaps?
[03:39] <OneM_Industries> And I am hoping to set it so that it is only on our internal network.
[03:40] <lotuspsychje> OneM_Industries: if machines are connected to the internet also, they can exploit remina/vnc also
[03:40] <OneM_Industries> Not really, as this will be a thing that happens multiple times, and the box is too far away. At that point, I might as well just get up and do the work ther physically.
[03:40] <OneM_Industries> there*
[03:43] <meng> hi
[03:43] <yueya> hi
[03:43] <OneM_Industries> Hello!
[04:19] <schultza> Does anyone else do gaming through virtualbox and xp mode?
[04:19] <schultza> pm me if you do.
[04:20] <elton> that's a horrible idea @
[04:21] <schultza> Well, my options are starting to get very limited with this new Win10 in your computer spying going on.
[04:21] <schultza> and between xp and 7, xp is more lightweight.
[04:21] <somsip> schultza: not really an ubuntu issue though. See !ot
[04:22] <schultza> great... gaming in ubuntu even if its virtual is OT... lovely
[04:23] <cfhowlett> schultza, sarcasm aside, you asked about configuring windows [04:23] <somsip> schultza: asking for friends to play with, denigrating windows - both offtopic. If you have a support question, ask it
[04:23] <cfhowlett> ubuntu support question, please
[04:23] <schultza> !ot
[04:23] <somsip> schultza: my bad - you didnt ask for friends to play with - you ask if anyone else played through VM.Win
[04:24] <schultza> yes. trying to see if they had suggestions for someone starting to play in that way...
[04:24] <dreamon> Having a bash string with full path/filename. how can I get out of it only its path? sed,awk.. any examples out there?
[04:24] <schultza> heading to the ot channel
[04:24] <somsip> schultza: well, ask the real question and see if we can get back on topic
[04:24] <cfhowlett> dreamon, perhaps the #bash channel would know
[04:25] <dreamon> ok, thanks
[04:25] <bisch> dreamon, dirname "$myvar" perhaps.
[04:26] <dreamon> bisch, Thanks a lot
[04:26] <bisch> np.  I thought this was the bash channel too.
[04:33] <oleksiy> what is this XChat all about?
[04:33] <somsip> oleksiy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat
[04:34] <OerHeks> oleksiy Ubuntu support, the topic is pretty clear :-)
[04:34] <cfhowlett> !topic | oleksiy
[04:34] <OneM_Industries> Is there a disk health checker in ubuntu?
[04:35] <OerHeks> there is one, in disks, OneM_Industries
[04:35] <somsip> !smart | oleksiy
[04:35] <OneM_Industries> Thank you!
[04:35] <somsip> and !testing
[04:36] <OneM_Industries> It is not giving me the option to select SMART checks.
[04:36] <OneM_Industries> It is grayed out.
[04:36] <Walkerdine> How do I format a disk to mbr
[04:36] <Walkerdine> what does it in ubuntu
[04:37] <cfhowlett> !format | Walkerdine
[04:38] <Walkerdine> wait is ms-dos and mbr the samething
[04:38] <cfhowlett> Walkerdine, no.
[04:39] <oleksiy> my computer keeps crashing every time I'm on facebook. I tried different browsers, still crashes? Is there something wrong with flash player?
[04:40] <nomic> totaly crashes?
[04:40] <devish> Hi
[04:41] <oleksiy> yes, like I have to do reset, it won't respond to anything
[04:42] <nomic> within a browser you can 1. disable flash
[04:42] <nomic> 2. disable javascript
[04:42] <sveta> oleksiy: there is a lot of things wrong with Flash player.  That Adobe do not maintain Adobe Flash for Linux anymore is one of them; if I remember correctly, peppermint is the new free/libre player for the same. Are you sure you need it at all, and if yes, then does the new one work?
[04:42] <nomic> this diagnoses
[04:42] <sveta> In Firefox, you can't really disable JS without much pain anymore.
[04:42] <nomic> disable the flash plugin to see if you get the fault --all flash runs = ads/video
[04:42] <nomic> there are other media players
[04:43] <sveta> I am converting all my videos to OGG during the last years for this reason. :-)
[04:43] <nomic> all I was saying is that within browser preferences/plugins -- he can go thru turning things off
[04:43] <nomic> 1 other may be "hardware accelaration" = using his graphics card
[04:44] <nomic> some sites may drive that
[04:44] <oleksiy> ok, I'll try that
[04:44] <nomic> *something* within that site, specifically is pushing something on the browser that fails 1. = flash
[04:44] <nomic> look @ what plugins you have look @ the browser options
[04:45] <nomic> javascript unlikely but something you can turn off to test
[04:45] <nomic> "hardware accelaration" - look for that .. which uses graphical effects on your card
[04:46] <nomic> local to hardwar & would fail without drivers -- have seen that before off a web page
[04:46] <nomic> http://www.webmonkey.com/2010/09/a-guide-to-hardware-acceleration-in-modern-browsers/
[04:47] <nomic> http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/53337/disable-hardware-acceleration-in-mozilla-firefox-chrome-and-internet-explorer/
[04:47] <nomic> oleksiy
[04:48] <oleksiy> Thanks, you're so helpful, I will look in to all of that
[04:48] <oleksiy> one thing at a time
[04:48] <nomic> cos i've seen a browser definitely crash thru 1 thing -- hardware accelration - can't remember what site it was .. 1 specific site .. turned "hardware accelration" off & no problem
[04:49] <nomic> no complete machine crash & i'm on an ubuntu -- that is very uncommon
[04:49] <nomic> in fact- it's about the only time i've had ubuntu crash - that thru browser
[04:49] <nomic> so you got it (I bet)

[04:54] <w0rm> hi
[04:56] <Sazpaimon> I'm looking for a reccommendation on a remote desktop software that will work well with displaying video on the server machine? VNC just doesn't cut it
[04:57]  * nomic have always been able to do it with virtualbox
[04:57] <nomic> is that vnc
[04:57] <cybergig22> Okay now I updated to Ubuntu 15.04 now can someone please tell me if theres a way for my Linksys WUSB3600 wireless adapter be able to function again...
[04:58] <Sazpaimon> for local connections vnc is fine, but I'm talking about remote connections over the internet
[05:01] <Sazpaimon> 10/10
[05:01] <nomic> isn't it stretching a bit to run video over a remote vnc connection
[05:01] <nomic> is it possible
[05:02] <cfhowlett> possible?  yes.
[05:02] <nomic> because you are streaming the video to the target machine
[05:02] <nomic> then its got to be streamed the video .. over X
[05:02] <nomic> you are talking about running it through a "remote desktop"
[05:04] <nomic> which I generally use for maintenance -- its slower than your local desktop (because its sending all the X through your intranet)
[05:07] <joesg> hello
[05:07] <joesg> I am a big fan of ubuntu, hope to have more information about it through this channel

[05:14] <Walkerdine> I've literally spent a week trying to partition this drive right and its driving me insane
[05:14] <Walkerdine> I've read everything
[05:15] <Walkerdine> I dont know what I'm doing wrong!
[05:15] <Walkerdine> I keep getting failed to IDENTIFY errors
[05:19] <cybergig22> Okay now I updated to Ubuntu 15.04 now can someone please tell me if theres a way for my Linksys WUSB3600 wireless adapter be able to function again...
[05:34] <cybergig22> .....
[05:59] <vishwa> hi
[06:07] <mssmss> Hi
[06:07] <mssmss> Looking for help on edubuntu / ltsp client tptp timeout
[06:11] <Uptime> mssmss: you may get better results just saying your issue :)
[06:11] <cybergig22> .....
[06:12] <cybergig22> Okay now I updated to Ubuntu 15.04 now can someone please tell me if theres a way for my Linksys WUSB3600 wireless adapter be able to function again...
[06:12] <mssmss> ltst thin clients seent tftp timeout after update ...were working fine on clean install...
[06:12] <mssmss> ltsp=ltsp
[06:12] <Wug> well, given that your router functions independantly of the computer I'm inclined to say that it's currently working
[06:13] <Wug> if you can't get a wireless connection to work, you should check to see if your wireless drivers are functioning properly
[06:13] <mssmss> did a clean install of edubuntu 14.04
[06:13] <mssmss> thin clients worked fine...
[06:14] <mssmss> but now seeing tftp timeout after first update...
[06:14] <Wug> mssmss: what command are you using
[06:14] <mssmss> sudo service tftpd-hpa status show start/running
[06:15] <mssmss> HPthin client t5145 is getting the IP address via DHCP, but then times out at tftp
[06:15] <mssmss> shows: PXE-E32: TFTP open timeout
[06:15] <Wug> have you tried capturing traffic to see if there's anything obviously wrong
[06:16] <Wug> wireshark or tcpdump may be able to assist there
[06:16] <mssmss> tried a sudo service tftpd-hpa restart and it's working...
[06:16] <mssmss> so, what did the update break.?
[06:16] <cybergig22> my router works indipendtly all by itself along with my modem... as for the actual adapter itself Ive tried installing the driver over and over again on the 14.10 dostronitatopm voa different methones mentioned on 14.04
[06:16] <cybergig22> o-O
[06:17] <cybergig22> on 15.04 it still ceses to function
[06:17] <Wug> mssmss: do you have to restart the service every time you restart the machine? or was it just a one time weird random failure
 what do you mean command?
[06:18] <Wug> mssmss: I meant what are you doing to encounter this error
[06:19] <mssmss> Wug: I have to restart service on every machine restart
[06:19] <Wug> maybe you can adjust the service's startup time
[06:19] <Wug> presumably it would be ok if it started later
[06:19] <JackBeNimble> Hello, has anyone's ubuntu launcher icons not changed size and just like freeze?
[06:19] <mssmss> WUg: to see the error, I turn on a thin client and allow it to boot via PXE
[06:19] <cybergig22> ......
[06:20] <Wug> cybergig22: sit tight, there's only one of me
[06:20] <mssmss> But it was working earlier...looks like the update broke it...
[06:20] <JackBeNimble> its been like this for a week or two
[06:20] <Wug> mssmss: it probably launches at boot via init.d or upstart
[06:20] <mssmss> googled a bit, other have seen this too: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/edubuntu-users/2015-February/007471.html
[06:20] <Wug> you might be able to make it work correctly by changing the startup script
[06:21] <Wug> if it starts at a runlevel other than 5, you might try moving it back to 5
[06:21] <mssmss> but that's just a work around...
[06:21] <JackBeNimble> Wug: who?
[06:21] <JackBeNimble> lol nvm
[06:21] <cybergig22> and nobody has responded to my request for help and actually been bsed
[06:21] <cybergig22> o_O
[06:22] <JackBeNimble> im looking for advice on what i can do too
[06:22] <Wug> mssmss: it's possible that some particular configuration you're using is interfering with the service startup, and also when it comes down to it, open source software sometimes just doesn't work quite perfectly
[06:23] <mssmss> tell me about it :-)
[06:23] <Wug> mssmss: if you have the time and expertise to fix it, try digging around in the logs to see why it's failing to correctly initialize the server if it starts too early, but if you don't, just work around it
[06:23] <JackBeNimble> its so small too lol my unity icons are just ...well stuck at 48px
[06:23] <mssmss> will do .. thanks...maybe I'll log a bug
[06:23] <Wug> cybergig22: as far as i know, wireless drivers are one of the problem points when updating ubuntu from one version to another, and this is a historical problem that's existed for some time
[06:24] <Wug> cybergig22: I don't use linux on laptops a lot so it's sort of out of my area of expertise
[06:24] <JackBeNimble> it can help to disconnect and reconnect
[06:24] <Wug> cybergig22: perhaps look and make sure the wireless driver is loaded? `lsmod | grep iw` and see if everything looks right
[06:25] <__flow__> Could someone point me in the right direction configuring my ssh server? I can connect to my main computer using the internal ip assigned by the router but the connection always times out when trying to connect with the external IP. I forward port 22 in the router and as far as I've checked no firewall is blocking the connection.
[06:25] <__flow__> Any idea what else it might be?
[06:26] <Wug> __flow__: it might just be that your router doesn't work well if you try to connect to your external ip from inside the network. try a proxy or a vps or some other way of connecting in from the outside
[06:26] <cybergig22> doing that does absolutly nothing Wug
[06:26] <Wug> i've had a few routers that didn't handle that gracevully
[06:26] <cybergig22> no information comes up whatsoever
[06:26] <__flow__> Wug: I tried connecting to another ssh server and from that server to my main pc using the external ip. Still it times out
[06:26] <Wug> cybergig22: that would tend to imply that the driver is not loaded
[06:27] <cybergig22> how would i go about loading it then?
[06:27] <Wug> __flow__: does the internal server have a static ip? or is it on dhcp, in which case its ip probably changed
[06:28] <__flow__> Wug: It is on DHCP, but I am checking right now the ip of my main pc and this is the ip which i configured to foward to in the router
[06:28] <PDP> can anyone tell me how i would fix my unity launcher icon sizes? I've tried everything, dconf, system settings, appearance... and nothing, any ideas?
[06:28] <__flow__> Wug: Still it doesn't work
[06:29] <Wug> cybergig22: can you run `lsmod && lspci | pastebinit`
[06:29] <Wug> __flow__: get tcpdump and make sure you're receiving the SYN
[06:29] <Wug> if you are, it's possible your isp filters it
[06:29] <Wug> otherwise it's a firewall misconfiguration somewhere, double check everything
[06:29] <__flow__> Wug: I'll check this. Thank you
[06:30] <Wug> PDP: um
[06:30] <cybergig22> installing pastebinit
[06:30] <cybergig22> o_O
[06:30] <Wug> PDP: I know there's a setting for this in the most recent versions of unity. does the setting just not work?
[06:31] <Wug> it should be in system settings -> appearance or something like that
[06:31] <cybergig22> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12319013/
[06:31] <PDP> Wug: Yeah, the slider is just like N/A
[06:31] <PDP> stays at 48
[06:31] <PDP> Wug: I've tried to change the size through the terminal too
[06:32] <schultza> are they ever going to bring back the change in location of the min,max,close to the right if we wanted it?
[06:33] <Wug> cybergig22: im dumb and only the first of those commands ended up pasted. run this one instead: `{ lspci; lsmod; } | less`
[06:33] <Wug> and use pastebinit instead of less
[06:34] <PDP> Wug: am i just SOL?
[06:35] <PDP> Wug: or report the bug..?
[06:35] <Wug> PDP: I seem to recall running a configuration with some debug packages installed and I ran into a lot of issues like that
[06:35] <Wug> so it could be some system configuration thing
[06:35] <Wug> I am not sure why exactly it misbehaves like that, but it had something to do with loading a non-system glib build
[06:36] <PDP> Wug: hm, well sh*t
[06:36] <PDP> lol
[06:36] <cybergig22> Wug: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12319023/
[06:36] <Wug> if you have a bunch of debug libraries installed, or have installed a bunch of your own libraries during the course of using the conputer, it's possible that you're experiencing something similar
[06:36] <notafads> anyone got an idea on how i can get raid10 up and running would love some help here
[06:37] <PDP> Wug: okay, how would I go about fixing that?
[06:37] <Wug> PDP: well. first you'd need to somehow conclusively identify the problem
[06:38] <Wug> PDP: do other gui programs disregard or forget their settings ever?
[06:38] <Wug> on this one particular system it was every gui program, not just unity
[06:38] <PDP> Wug: well the launcher ceases to auto-hide also.. haven't noticed much else
[06:40] <cybergig22> Wug I know its a jacked up rigg
[06:40] <cybergig22> lol
[06:40] <PDP> Wug: Sorry bro, im terrible with the 'ubuntu know how'
[06:40] <Wug> notafads: some motherboards support hardware raid10, you might see if you can configure it there
[06:40] <Wug> if you use a software raid, it will probably not be cross platform
[06:40] <Wug> but if you have no other choice, you might consider using lvm
[06:41] <Wug> (I don't know if there is any windows support for lvm at all, proceed with caution)
[06:42] <Wug> cybergig22: give me a while longer
[06:42] <PDP> Wug: i guess 48px isn't so bad, i just like to fit more in the bar
[06:42] <Wug> PDP: you could try reinstalling unity
[06:42] <cybergig22> okay, mind if i go grab a smoke really fast Wug?
[06:42] <Wug> PDP: bug honestly I doubt that will help
[06:42] <PDP> Wug: lol i've done that too...
[06:43] <Wug> cybergig22: knock yourself out
[06:43] <cybergig22> ty
[06:43] <N3TN1NJ4> anyone had any luck getting flash player to work on hulu in the past 2 weeks?
[06:43] <N3TN1NJ4> regarding HAL crap and DRM stuff and fails regardless of following troubleshooting steps
[06:43] <Wug> cybergig22: can you also run `lsusb | pastebinit`
[06:44] <Wug> N3TN1NJ4: lol you're probably better off without flash
[06:44] <Wug> does hulu support html5 yet
[06:44] <N3TN1NJ4> not yet man
[06:44] <Wug> meh well
[06:44] <Wug> hulu has ads even if you pay for a subscription, so screw them
[06:44] <N3TN1NJ4> netflix.com can't use, hulu.com cna't use... even comcast xfinity.com to watch live doesn't work no more
[06:44] <cybergig22> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12319057/
[06:45] <N3TN1NJ4> adobe feeding use security updates but NOT the updates regarding this HAL/DRM crap all the major streaming sites are updating too
[06:45] <PDP> Wug: one thing i've tried is: dconf write /org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/unityshell/icon-size 38
[06:45] <cybergig22> That Netgear bugs out and disconnects at random times so I want to switch addapters thats the problem im having
[06:45] <PDP> Wug: nothing happened of course
[06:45] <N3TN1NJ4> yeah i wish i could just ditch flash entirely, i wish ppl wouldn't code sites for IE using activeX and I wish everyone would adopt HTML5 and no more flash/silverlight....
[06:45] <Wug> PDP: the problem as I encountered it was an impedence mismatch of some sort that was preventing unity (and other applications) from reading or writing to the dconf settings
[06:46] <cybergig22> brb though
[06:46] <notafads> Wug, i am trying to do hardware raid i can change the sata options to raid
[06:46] <notafads> Wug,  but i cannot find intel smart
[06:46] <N3TN1NJ4> but for now, just wondering if there's any work around ya'll have found, googling and forums has yielded little hope thus far... maybe even hexedit hacks to LIE to the sites about which version of flash is running etc
[06:46] <Wug> notafads: hardware problems are outside of the scope of this channel, try asking in ##hardware
[06:46] <PDP> my connection on my laptop blinks randomly blue to red to blue
[06:46] <PDP> lol
[06:47] <PDP> Wug, thanks for trying to help i appreciate it
[06:47] <shafox> is there anyway to install apache2-mpm-prefork 2.4.16 version ?
[06:47] <N3TN1NJ4> hardware issues also good for specific vendor chans (nvidia/ati/amd/intel/etc)... perhaps a linux driver channel
[06:48] <Wug> cybergig22: your wireless adapter is "NetGear, Inc. WNDA3100v1 802.11abgn" listed in lsusb and the driver is uses is "carl9170", which is in fact loaded
[06:48] <Wug> im trying to think of what to look at next
[06:48] <Wug> I have no experience with debugging wireless issues apart from just making sure the driver is working correctly
[06:49] <N3TN1NJ4> shafox : Installer is at http://tiny.cc/shafox
[06:49] <N3TN1NJ4> sorry for url shortener i have issues at times copying between this mIRC on a win2008 VM and my linux box
[06:50] <shafox> N3TN1NJ4: in that also i can see the version against apache2-mpm-preforkis 2.4.10
[06:51] <shafox> thanks i will take it to #mysql channel.
[06:52] <cybergig22> Wug I know that is the addapter that is being used, but I want to load my Linksys WUSB4300 adapter since the netgear one is faulty
[06:53] <Wug> ok
[06:53] <cybergig22> it worked in 14.04 but since I upgraded to 14.10 that particular adapter doesnt work anymore
[06:54] <cybergig22> I had to use neatgear as my fallback and it disconnects more than I want it too specially when im in the middle of something
[06:56] <Wug> cybergig22: the linksys one requires a driver called 8812au, which is not loaded
[06:56] <Wug> can you check if you have such a driver? `modinfo 8812au | pastebinit`
[06:58] <cybergig22> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12319120/
[06:58] <Wug> try `sudo modprobe 8812au` to load the driver. if there is an error, tell me what, otherwise see if it works
[06:59] <N3TN1NJ4> shafox?
[06:59] <cybergig22> want me to pastebin it?
[06:59] <Wug> if it doesn't work sure, but if it does then I don't need to see it
[07:00] <shafox> N3TN1NJ4: yes ?
[07:00] <N3TN1NJ4> shafox : www.bit.do/shafox1  and   www.bit.do/shafox2
[07:00] <cybergig22> modprobe: ERROR: could not insert '8812au': Exec format error
[07:01] <Wug> N3TN1NJ4: you're creepin me out man
[07:01] <Wug> cybergig22: well there's your problem
[07:01] <N3TN1NJ4> found by a google search for --> "apache2-mpm-prefork-2.4.16"
[07:01] <Wug> im not exactly sure what's wrong with the driver, but if the file just is damaged somehow then reinstalling it should fix it
[07:01] <N3TN1NJ4> sorry about the shortened links Wug, i'm bouncing between linux and windows VM's and my copy/paste doesn't work most of time
[07:01] <shafox> ok
[07:02] <cybergig22> so how would I reinstall it o.o
[07:02] <Wug> N3TN1NJ4: you need znc or something
[07:02] <cybergig22> ive tried that... >.>
[07:03] <TheNumb> cybergig22: where did you get that driver?
[07:03] <cybergig22> from a github repository
[07:03] <cybergig22> o_o
[07:03] <Wug> try recompiling it
[07:04] <TheNumb> cybergig22: you'll have to rebuild it after kernel updates.
[07:04] <TheNumb> Or use dkms to do that automatically.
[07:06] <inspectah_stack> if I have a VPS with 2 external ips (eth0 and eth0:0) and I want to use PPTP on eth0:0 do I need to do something special (forward the traffic) from eth0:0 to eht0 in order to get it to work?
[07:08] <nishu-tryinghard> hey guys, I wan to upgrade ubuntu 11.10 to the latest one is it possible?
[07:08] <hateball> !eolupgrade | nishu-tryinghard
[07:09] <AndChat|742016> Hello
[07:10] <cybergig22> I just do another modprobe and it still gives the same error after recompiling it
[07:11] <TheNumb> cybergig22: can you link the project page?
[07:12] <xcharlliex> Could you recommend me the best GUI client to gitlab on ubuntu 15.04 thanks in advance
[07:12] <cybergig22> https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux
[07:12] <shafox> N3TN1NJ4: thanks i went with enabling the mod
[07:15] <cybergig22> maybe re clone the git repository?
[07:15] <cybergig22> o_o
[07:15] <baizon> xcharlliex: http://rabbitvcs.org/
[07:16] <N3TN1NJ4> shafox : Glad I could somewhat help.  That was a hard one to dig up.
[07:16] <shafox> N3TN1NJ4: yeah as the ppa dont provide that. and searching through the docs was the only way on how to install the prefork. still havent tested it whether it is working or not. if not might as well install it separately.
[07:18] <xcharlliex> Baizon: if an application support github , it is possible that it will work with gitlab ?
[07:18] <TheNumb> cybergig22: looks like you're either building an amd64 kernel module on a i386 system or the other way round.
[07:18] <TheNumb> cybergig22: can you pastebin the build log?
[07:19] <TheNumb> xcharlliex: a gui client for gitlab?
[07:19] <TheNumb> xcharlliex: gitlab or git in general?
[07:19] <TheNumb> Because gitlab it just a web frontend for git repositories.
[07:19] <TheNumb> xcharlliex: for git repositories you might want to check out gitg.
[07:19] <sravan> New to  Chat
[07:20] <xcharlliex> Ok so if  app support git respositories it works with gitlab
[07:20] <TheNumb> xcharlliex: it should.
[07:20] <xcharlliex> Ok thanks guys i'm sorry for stupid question

[07:31] <auronandace> gioans: you need to detail the problem before anyone can help
[07:32] <cybergig22> now its working
[07:32] <TheNumb> cybergig22: hmm, do a reboot and see if it'll load the module.
[07:32] <cybergig22> disconect the netgear as well?
[07:32] <cybergig22> o_O
[07:32] <TheNumb> cybergig22: right now the module has been loaded from the file
[07:33] <TheNumb> cybergig22: as if it wasn't installed in the system.
[07:33] <cybergig22> so what if it fails does that mean the module loader is messed up?
[07:33] <TheNumb> cybergig22: you could try removing the module and doing a clean install.
[07:34] <faik> hey
[07:35] <yamil> soy nuevo!! tengo problemas con virtualbox,, alguien me puede ayudar?

[07:45] <nishu-tryinghard> ubottu: I read the guide as well as searched else where about the upgrade process. But i have get this error when i want to update. is it okay to just upgrade without updating 11.10 ?
[07:46] <auronandace> nishu-tryinghard: 11.10 has long been unsupported
[07:46] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: what error?
[07:47] <__flow__> Wug: Can you help me out with tcpdump? How can i check that I am receiving the SYN?
[07:47] <N3TN1NJ4> that distro is just too far out of date, ubottu
[07:47] <nishu-tryinghard> it cant get the sources or access repo as it is no longer supported
[07:47] <TheNumb> N3TN1NJ4: yet you can still upgrade it.
[07:47] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: read the wiki page.
[07:48] <nishu-tryinghard> so can i just upgrade without updating?
[07:48] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: you can't
[07:48] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[07:48] <TheNumb> Everything you need is there.
[07:51] <cybergig22> TheNumb: it is still not working on load...
[07:51] <N3TN1NJ4> nishu-tryinghard : Alternatively, www.bit.do/ubuntu11 ---- scroll down to Software Sources... change the "show new distribution releases" to either LTS (14.04.2 or whatever) or normal (15.x) releases.... then do in CLI either --> "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade"   OR   "sudo do-release-upgrade"
[07:51] <TheNumb> N3TN1NJ4: won't work
[07:52] <nishu-tryinghard> what if i have some other repos?
[07:52] <TheNumb> 11.10 has been removed from the archive
[07:52] <__flow__> Could someone give me a hint for configuring a ssh server? I can connect to my main computer using the internal ip assigned by the router but the connection always times out when trying to connect with the external IP. I forward port 22 in the router and as far as I've checked no firewall is blocking the connection.
[07:52] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: the update manager should disable them.
[07:52] <gioans> #ubuntu-chat
[07:52] <nishu-tryinghard> TheNumb: TY very much for clearing that.
[07:52] <gioans> #ubuntu-vn
[07:53] <TheNumb> gioans: please stop doing that.
[07:53] <N3TN1NJ4> nishu-tryinghard : Basically all your repositories are too out of date and no longer supported.  versions 10.x and 14.x are Long-term support... 11 isn't.  I suggest you move to version 14.  and it seems "TheNumb" is right... you have to edit the repository sources.list to even get fed the new distro upgrade
[07:54] <gioans> i am sorry
[07:54] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: please read the paragraph "Update sources.list" over at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[07:54] <nishu-tryinghard> N3TN1NJ4: ya i understand that.
[07:55] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades/Oneiric
[07:55] <nishu-tryinghard> TheNumb:Okay iam on it
[07:55] <TheNumb> That's what you want to do.
[07:55] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: while you're at it, you should consider upgrading all the way to 14.04 because it'll be supported until 2019.
[07:55] <Guest74349> hello
[07:56] <nishu-tryinghard> ya thats what i wanted to do.
[07:56] <nishu-tryinghard> TheNumb: i guess most of the config will break. Is that right?
[07:56] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: that shouldn't happen.
[07:57] <nishu-tryinghard> TheNumb: Okay.
[07:57] <TheNumb> nishu-tryinghard: you might want to back up your stuff before doing the upgrade.
[07:57] <nishu-tryinghard> TheNumb: Okay, i will take backup.
[07:58] <N3TN1NJ4> __flow__ : you can try on the linux box --> "sudo tcpdump -vvv dst port 22" <-- to see if packets reaching linux box at all
[07:59] <N3TN1NJ4> __flow__ : Most likely your external firewall is not forwarding the packet correctly... or you're using DHCP and your IP is changing... OR your ISP is blocking port 22 (doubtful)... or the ssh daemon is configured to NOT accept non-local (WAN) connections
[08:01] <N3TN1NJ4> __flow__ : When issuing the SSH command from an external IP... use the -v option for verbose logging output to see what that says at well... i.e. --> ssh -v user@port
[08:01] <__flow__> N3TN1NJ4: I will check if packets are reaching the linux box and updated you what i've found
[08:02] <N3TN1NJ4> __flow__ : Finally, if you're just learning now with security, I HIGHLY suggest, if possible... that you use an ALTERNATE (obscured) external port such as 30022... and forward that to ur internal 192.168.blah IP on port 22
[08:02] <N3TN1NJ4> Simply changing your external port for SSH access makes your system probably 99.99% more secure from everything but an experienced hacker targeting you specifically
[08:04] <__flow__> The only thing which should be changed to do this is to update the settings in the router and connect with ssh via a specific port correct?
[08:05] <N3TN1NJ4> ssh user@port -p 30022     or whatever
[08:05] <N3TN1NJ4> not all routers will let you redirect the port like that tho
[08:06] <__flow__> Oh right. Alternatively I need to configure ssh to use port 30022?
[08:08] <__flow__> N3TN1NJ4: Nevertheless, when I try to connect from the internet to the ssh server with -v it just says connecting to IP-address and then it times out
[08:08] <__flow__> And tcpdump doesn't output anything
[08:09] <N3TN1NJ4> so firewall not letting it thru...
[08:09] <__flow__> Or could it be the router configuration?
[08:09] <N3TN1NJ4> yes, when i said firewall all those times earlier, i meant router.
[08:10] <__flow__> I'll just keep trying to figure this out. Won't steal more of your time, thanks :)
[08:10] <N3TN1NJ4> i don't mind, but to help ya someone would need to know which router brand/model ur using
[08:11] <__flow__> Well it's DIGI ZXHN H218N
[08:11] <N3TN1NJ4> u must not be in US, brb heh
[08:12] <__flow__> yeap :D
[08:14] <N3TN1NJ4> flow : www.tiny.cc/flowfwd
[08:15] <__flow__> N3TN1NJ4: Yea that's how it looks like
[08:15] <arcsky> hello guys MS Lync exists for Ubuntu?
[08:16] <N3TN1NJ4> Name : "Obscure SSH", protocol TCP, wan start/end address leave blank if it'll let you, select ur WAN (looks like DSL), wan start port "30022", end port "30022", lan host address "192.168.1.x" (use STATIC IP), lan start port 22, end port 22
[08:17] <N3TN1NJ4> then from external ip do --> ssh -v<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-p 30022
[08:18] <N3TN1NJ4> arcsky : You can try running it under WINE... google ubuntu lync compatability... there's plenty of alternatives that work with lync
[08:21] <arcsky> N3TN1NJ4: OK
[08:21] <__flow__> N3TN1NJ4: Hell yea it works!! Thanks so much :D
[08:23] <N3TN1NJ4> __flow__ : Keep in mind that port obfuscation stuff and redirection
[08:23] <N3TN1NJ4> if it's just stuff  you're running for yourself, do NOT use default ports
[08:24] <N3TN1NJ4> every time there's some 0day exploit for web or ftp or ssh or sql or whatever servers... the zombie bots will scan the whole internet looking for running services on default ports, like port 22 for ssh
[08:24] <__flow__> All right I'll do that from now on
[08:26] <N3TN1NJ4> __flow__ : Glad I could help and ya got it working.  Stay safe :)
[08:28] <__flow__> N3TN1NJ4: One more thing if you don't mind :D Since I have a dynamic IP, the only reliable way to use the ssh server I could think of is to use a free dynamic DNS server and use a script to update it with my current IP every time it changes. Then schedule the script to run automatically every few hours or so. Can you think of a better way of doing it?
[08:28] <N3TN1NJ4> __flow__ : www.duckdns.org
[08:29] <N3TN1NJ4> info on site about auto updating, i do mine thru the DDNS options on my DD-WRT modified router
[08:32] <__flow__> N3TN1NJ4: This looks really nice. I'll start using it, thanks again
[08:43] <admin0> hi all .. what should be the correct affinity for a 32 cpu system ?
[08:44] <admin0> or what is the default one ?
[08:49] <Afdal> Hi I've got a problem with installing GRUB
[08:50] <Afdal> I just did an Ubuntu update from 12.04 to 14.04
[08:50] <Afdal> but it failed to install GRUB during the process
[08:50] <Afdal> I think I've had this issue in the past installing Ubuntu but I don't remember what I did to resolve it
[08:50] <Afdal> I suspect the problem is it didn't detect my on-board RAID setup properly
[08:51] <Afdal> oi
[08:51] <Afdal> and now I can't seem to access applications like GRUB Customizer or Gparted
[08:51] <Afdal> anything that requires my password
[08:52] <Afdal> pops up the password dialogue box
[08:52] <Afdal> but with garbled text due to the update
[08:52] <Afdal> I put my password in and hit continue but it never loads the application
[08:52] <Afdal> I'm afraid to restart now :(
[08:54] <Afdal> ugh can't open Synaptic either
[08:54] <Afdal> oh looks like Ubuntu Software Center works
[08:54] <Afdal> dmraid appears to be installed still at least
[08:54] <EriC^^> Afdal: what's the problem?
[08:55] <Afdal> Just finished an Ubuntu upgrade but I'm having trouble getting GRUB to install
[08:55] <Afdal> I presume if I reboot now I won't be able to boot my OSs
[08:55] <EriC^^> type sudo lsblk | nc termbin.com 9999
[08:55] <EriC^^> sudo lsblk -f ..
[08:55] <Afdal> what's that do
[08:55] <EriC^^> lists the block devices
[08:56] <Afdal> ah
[08:56] <Afdal> hmm
[08:57] <Afdal> I don't think it's listing these partitions properly...
[08:57] <EriC^^> did it give you a link?
[08:57] <Afdal> NAME                        FSTYPE             LABEL MOUNTPOINT

[08:58] <EriC^^> i think that was meant for Afdal ^
[08:59] <Afdal> sheesh
[08:59] <Afdal> GRUB and dmraid just never play nice with my setup here ._.
[09:00] <EriC^^> ok pastebin please
[09:00] <Afdal> what's a command that let's me check if dmraid is installed properly?
[09:00] <Afdal> pastebin what?

[09:01] <Afdal> :/
[09:02] <Afdal> so it's listing my partitions on the separate HDDs
[09:02] <Afdal> but it's not reading them all together as their RAID0 partitions
[09:02] <Afdal> at least, I think, if I'm reading that right
[09:03] <Afdal> I swear
[09:03] <Afdal> this better not have installed on only one drive
[09:03] <Afdal> and ruined my RAID0 setups I:<
[09:03] <EriC^^> Afdal: type sudo parted -l
[09:04] <EriC^^> and pastebin
[09:04] <limingke355653> hello
[09:05] <Afdal> okay that seems to be detecting them right
[09:06] <Afdal> http://pastebin.com/UNgTvNqT
[09:07] <EriC^^> Afdal: type cat /proc/mdstat
[09:07] <Afdal> those are the right partitions sizes
[09:07] <Afdal> and they would be half if it wasn't detected

[09:07] <Afdal> unused devices: <none>

[09:09] <Afdal> :I
[09:09] <limingke355653> i am from chinese
[09:10] <Afdal> Well I can always boot into my stuff from a liveCD or supergrubdisk
[09:10] <Afdal> I'm gonna try restarting real quick
[09:10] <Afdal> back in a moment
[09:10] <EriC^^> ok
[09:14] <Afdal> well
[09:14] <Afdal> It didn't -uninstall- my old GRUB at least
[09:14] <Afdal> thank goodness for that
[09:14] <Afdal> looks like I'm able to boot Xubuntu 14.04 successfully
[09:15] <Afdal> got a bunch of System Errors when it started up

[09:33] <EriC^^> well if the kernel works for sure i guess hit y
[09:33] <Afdal> okay {:I
[09:33] <Afdal> lol
[09:33] <Afdal> didn't work anyway

[09:33] <EriC^^> so odd, seems like a lot of space for 5 kernels
[09:40] <nishu-tryinghard> OKay i made the back and went thought the doc which you gave. Do i have to remove all the listings from the sources and add the only ones mentioned in the doc? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades/Oneiric
[09:41] <EriC^^> nishu-tryinghard: replace archive.ubuntu.com with old-releases.ubuntu.com in your sources.list
[09:42] <nishu-tryinghard> when i did apt-get update i got errors about backports and multiverse that it cant find.
[09:42] <EriC^^> nishu-tryinghard: paste your sources.list
[09:43] <rory> No matter what I do, Firefox will sometimes randomly set my spellcheck language to US English. It might be happening after every update, or that might be a coincidence
[09:43] <nishu-tryinghard> any ubuntu pate bin
[09:43] <rory> It's not a problem but it is an annoyance and it's been the case on every system I've used for the last 10 years. Does anyone else deal with this?
[09:43] <nishu-tryinghard> pastebin link plzz

[09:44] <nishu-tryinghard> EriC^^: here http://paste.ubuntu.com/12319785/
[09:45] <linocisco> hi all , i have ever got ubuntu internal problem on 15.04 and error reporting box ever appeared after login. I sent report. but it is not fixed even after apt-get update && upgrade
[09:45] <k1l> nishu-tryinghard: mark the other ones with a # at the beginning of the line.
[09:45] <nishu-tryinghard> so i just need the one mentioned in the doc and comment  out others?
[09:46] <k1l> nishu-tryinghard: just use these mentioned in here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[09:46] <linocisco> the other problem is with annoying cursor problem. Whenever typing in text box, pointer is randomly going anywhere and all typed texts are changed or current cursor location changed
[09:49] <EriC^^> nishu-tryinghard: wait
[09:49] <nishu-tryinghard> EriC^^: okay
[09:49] <EriC^^> nishu-tryinghard: you've type oneiric , that was just an example , it's a very old ubuntu release
[09:50] <EriC^^> oh nevermind
[09:50] <nishu-tryinghard> i have oneric installed
[09:50] <EriC^^> yeah
[09:50] <nishu-tryinghard> so can i carryon?
[09:50] <EriC^^> why dont you fresh install?
[09:50] <nishu-tryinghard> no cant i am at work place
[09:51] <EriC^^> actually nevermind, it will take you to 12.04
[09:51] <nishu-tryinghard> else i would have done that already
[09:51] <nishu-tryinghard> okay EriC^^ ty
[09:52] <nishu-tryinghard> EriC^^: will it overwrite the windows boot loader?
[09:52] <EriC^^> it'll install grub yeah
[09:52] <EriC^^> you can still boot windows though from grub
[09:52] <nishu-tryinghard> EriC^^: okay mkconfig
[09:53] <nishu-tryinghard> what is the mkconfig equivalent for ubuntu
[09:53] <EriC^^> update-grub
[09:53] <nishu-tryinghard> nevermind ill search
[09:53] <nishu-tryinghard> EriC^^: TY
[09:53] <EriC^^> np
[09:53] <nishu-tryinghard> Well it cant find a new ubuntu release
[09:54] <EriC^^> did you run sudo apt-get update?
[09:54] <nishu-tryinghard> EriC^^:  i did sudo do-release-upgrade
[09:54] <nishu-tryinghard> ya i did that
[09:54] <Afdal> I just can't even believe this business with GRUB and dmraid still having trouble working with on-board RAID is still an issue
[09:54] <Afdal> how many years has hit been now
[09:54] <Afdal> this was a problem for me going back to like
[09:54] <Afdal> 2007 or something

[09:58] <nishu-tryinghard> not found
[09:58] <Gerak_> What command did you run?

[09:59] <nishu-tryinghard> here
[09:59] <EriC^^> ok type sudo nano /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[10:00] <k1l> that is the issue. the release propmt is set to "never"
[10:00] <EriC^^> change prompt=never to prompt=Normal
[10:00] <EriC^^> sorry prompt=normal
[10:00] <nishu-tryinghard> okay
[10:02] <linocisco> hi
[10:04] <nishu-tryinghard> k1l, EriC^^ : okay safe-update in progress
[10:04] <nishu-tryinghard> k1l:
[10:04] <nishu-tryinghard> hope it gets updated without any issue
[10:04] <nishu-tryinghard> i did take home dir backup
[10:06] <Afdal> well
[10:06] <Afdal> about to give up and go to bed here
[10:07] <Afdal> perhaps another time
[10:13] <Afdal> all right then
[10:13] <Afdal> Never upgrading my distro again ;_;
[10:18] <nishu-tryinghard> EriC^^: I used sudo do-release-upgrade and i shows that it has to remove some packages so how can i see which packages are removed.
[10:19] <k1l> nishu-tryinghard: it will list them. you can press d for details when you are asked
[10:19] <nishu-tryinghard> k1l: ya i found out how to do it ty anyway.
[10:20] <linocisco> hi
[10:20] <linocisco> the other problem is with annoying cursor problem. Whenever typing in text box, pointer is randomly going anywhere and all typed texts are changed or current cursor location changed
[10:20] <k1l> linocisco: make sure not to touch the touchpad
[10:21] <linocisco> k1l, it is not touch pad issue, i guess. i touch only when to move pointer or cursor
[10:30] <nishu-tryinghard> shouldnt the prompt be set to LTS instead of normal?
[10:30] <EriC^^> no
[10:30] <EriC^^> it says why next to it
[10:31] <k1l> nishu-tryinghard: if you are on LTS and want to upgrade to the next LTS only.
[10:32] <nishu-tryinghard> ya thats what i wanted
[10:32] <k1l> so change that now.
[10:32] <nishu-tryinghard> i wanted to update to 12.04 and then to 14.04
[10:32] <k1l> for the upgrade you just made you needed it to be normal.
[10:33] <nishu-tryinghard> I did do-release-upgrade with normal option its downloading the files.
[10:33] <nishu-tryinghard> will that update to 12.04 ?
[10:38] <SopaXT> Hello!
[10:39] <SopaXT> I have problems with wireless, see Lenovo Forums@https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-11e-Windows-E-and-Edge/TP-Edge-E330-WiFi-not-working-on-Ubuntu-15-04/td-p/2159298
[10:39] <di48l069> hi wondering if someone can help me im trying to use this command 'sudo useradd -a -G firefox $USER' and it says invalid -a command
[10:40] <EriC^^> di48l069: -a -G is for usermod
[10:40] <EriC^^> just -G for useradd
[10:40] <di48l069> what do you mean for usermod
[10:41] <EriC^^> if you want to add a user to a group you use sudo usermod -aG <group> <user>
[10:41] <EriC^^> when you're creating a user it's just sudo useradd -G <supplementary groups> <user>
[10:42] <di48l069> but i am trying add a user to group firefox
[10:42] <EriC^^> ok, then sudo usermod -aG firefox <user>
[10:43] <di48l069> okay thanks @Eric
[10:43] <EriC^^> no problem

When I loging to X2Go I atach xpra and see the terminal. I hope this is well but it also "eats 100 MB" of memory. Seems to me a lot for terminal. Is it all ok? :) Coments welcome.
[10:49] <IceBot3000> Which GUI would people prefer for managing a server, XFCE or LXDE?
[10:50] <Rhino_Crash> IceBot3000 I am using xfce
[10:50] <k1l> non. a desktop on a server is waisted power
[10:50] <Gerak_> IceBot3000: XFCE is nice and simple
[10:50] <IceBot3000> Ok thanks :) I was looking for an alternative as Unity is dreadful without 3D acceleration in a VM

[10:57] <Silent_Attacker> if you run sudo apt-get update, then you found something error, is it because some particular applications or what? and must we make it all successfull update report? because sometimes it is failed to reach some http:// xxx, or some packages. enlight me here, thanks
[10:58] <k1l> Silent_Attacker: can you plase put that output into a pastebin and link it here?
[10:58] <IceBot3000> There's a few reasons it might fail to contact an update server, depends on the message
[10:58] <auronandace> Silent_Attacker: pastebin the output, it could be a ppa repo failing to connect
[10:59] <Silent_Attacker> Err http://extra.linuxmint.com rafaela InRelease
[10:59] <auronandace> !mint | Silent_Attacker
[10:59] <Silent_Attacker> i could fix it before, i forgot how
[10:59] <k1l> Silent_Attacker: well talk to the mint support about their repos
[11:00] <test__> hello
[11:00] <k1l> the mint channel should be the starting channel on your irc program anyway. since mint handles the updates and repos differently than ubuntu please ask there.
[11:01] <Silent_Attacker> technically, it would happen everytime as long as i always change evreything with my system
[11:01] <Silent_Attacker> ubotto: if i may ask you, from that error what can you get?
[11:01] <k1l> Silent_Attacker: ask the mint support, please
[11:01] <Silent_Attacker> kIl, can you give me the channel?
[11:04] <segenubuntu> hello
[11:04] <segenubuntu> also cau servus ahoj....
[11:04] <k1l> Silent_Attacker: the bot just gave you. and they are not on freenode. so you need to change servers, too. the irc clients on mint are set to connect to that channel, so please use that and dont join here for mint support

[11:38] <SopaXT> How to unock?
[11:38] <SopaXT> And why the hell does it store the lock stare
[11:39] <SopaXT> *hardlocked
[11:41] <OerHeks> SopaXT, disable fastboot from within windows and try again?
[11:41] <OerHeks> (not secureboot)
[11:43] <SopaXT> Sorry, no win handy now
[11:43] <ThePendulum> Is there no way yet to have a wallpaper span both monitors in the Unity lock screen?
[11:43] <k1l> SopaXT: what does rfkill list bring you? please pastebin
[11:46] <SopaXT> k1l, pastebin.com/3NsqYYx5
[11:46] <OerHeks> SopaXT, strange, no windows?
[11:46] <SopaXT> Ah, forgot to note: I use lenovo thinkpad edge e330 -> ubuntu 15.04
[11:46] <SopaXT> Windows was removed
[11:47] <k1l> SopaXT: sudo rfkill unblock all
[11:47] <k1l> does this change it?
[11:47] <SopaXT> k1l, nope.
[11:47] <ioria> combo keys, or bios wireless settings ...
[11:48] <SopaXT> BIOS wireless is all on
[11:48] <SopaXT> Hotkey toggles soft block
[11:49] <k1l> seems to be an issue that the windows driver sets the wifi to a standby state.
[11:50] <SopaXT> k1l, but everything that Windows can control can be switched on linux right?
[11:51] <Archyme> I have issues with my Lenovo and bluetooth/wifi/built in sd card reader when dual booting back and forth
[11:51] <k1l> SopaXT: theoretically,if we have the proper drivers.
[11:52] <k1l> SopaXT: i find a lot of users complaining with that thinkpads and they solved it by reinstalling win and pressing the key-kombo to unlock it
[11:52] <Archyme> Have you tried turning bios wireless off, boot into ubuntu, restart, turn bios wireless back on, boot into ubuntu?
[11:55] <Cinematic69> hello
[11:55] <SopaXT> k1l, I can't reinstall win
[11:55] <SopaXT> I want to turn it on from inux
[11:55] <Cinematic69> i'm new on ubuntu and i'm using irc for the first time
[11:56] <ThePendulum> what program are you using?
[11:56] <Archyme> Hello Cinematic
[11:56] <MonkeyDust> Cinematic69  great, this is the ubuntu support channel
[11:56] <k1l> SopaXT: seems like the driver is not capable of getting the wifi device out of that state on linux.
[11:56] <ThePendulum> oh, nvm, didn't read you're also using IRC for the first time at all
[11:56] <ThePendulum> Cinematic69: Welcome to an ancient yet rock-solid technology, and welcome to #ubuntu :-)
[11:56] <Cinematic69> oh so i'm in the perfect place
[11:56] <Archyme> SopaXT, do you have an external or extra hdd? install win to that then unlock/swap back to ubuntu hdd?
[11:57] <ioria> SopaXT, do you have something in blacklist  ? cat /etc/modules
[11:57] <k1l> SopaXT: there are tons of users of that laptop reporting it and they solved it by using a windows to boot and press the fn+f9 on windows
[11:59] <SopaXT> k1l, I have bcmwl in blackist
[12:00] <ThePendulum> Cinematic69: how is your experience so far?
[12:00] <ioria> SopaXT, try to remove it, you can add it again
[12:00] <SopaXT> Tre
[12:01] <SopaXT> Already, np resut
[12:01] <SopaXT> No result
[12:02] <ioria> SopaXT, did you restart ?

[12:14] <ej6d9n5> !luks
[12:15] <BluesKaj> hiyas all
[12:17] <ioria> SopaXT, did you install some driver package , like bcmwl-kernel-source ?
[12:17] <SopaXT> Ye.
[12:18] <SopaXT> And I did remove it, because it only added bcmwl0
[12:23] <SopaXT> Ioria
[12:24] <ioria> SopaXT, you sure the bios settings are  ok  ?
[12:24] <SopaXT> Yeah.
[12:27] <SopaXT> Interesting: if I boot in recovery mode, until using iwconfig, the block is off
[12:27] <SopaXT> Ioria
[12:27] <ioria> SopaXT, lsmod | grep ideapad-laptop ?
[12:29] <ioria> SopaXT, if you enable network, it works ?    as far as i know recovery does not load all the modules... so could be something that you installed
[12:29] <SopaXT> I can't dnab
[12:30] <SopaXT> enable wireless
[12:30] <SopaXT> No ideapad-laptop
[12:31] <SopaXT> ioria <-
[12:34] <guruprasad> On an up-to-date Ubuntu 14.04 VM, bash completion for paths and files is terribly slow. So when I do set -x, it becomes faster and stays that way even after disabling set -x. What could be the issue?
[12:36] <MonkeyDust> guruprasad  problem solved?
[12:38] <ioria> SopaXT, so you purged  bcmwl-kernel-source ?
[12:46] <SopaXT> ioria, I think that it doesn't matter, it didn't do anything anyway
[12:46] <la00> BluesKaj>that do-upgrade stuff ended the same way :S
[12:46] <la00> BluesKaj>is there a command to revert from 14.10 ro 14.04LTS?
[12:46] <jpds> !download | la00
[12:47] <jpds> !downgrade | la00
[12:47] <BluesKaj> la00, then you have packages that can't be upgraded
[12:47] <la00> BluesKaj>I'm at work right now...so I can't test anything else
[12:48] <la00> I'll probably need to reinstall it from scratch
[12:48] <balance1> hi I have ubuntu server (no gui) installed on virtual box. Can I somehow make it scale with the virtual box window?
[12:48] <la00> since my /home is mounted on other partition
[12:49] <la00> all my configs will still be there after the reinstall
[12:49] <daftykins> balance1: the TTYs? not easily. just SSH in.
[12:49] <balance1> daftykins, :p true ty
[12:50] <MonkeyDust> la00  what are you struggling with?
[12:50] <BluesKaj> la00, if you have separate / and /home partitions then just install the OS to / after formatting and set the mountpoint for/home partition in tha partitioner from a live media like dvd or usb image
[12:51] <BluesKaj> doing a clean install
[12:51] <fearnothing-alt> Hi folks, I have a question about encrypted disk and imaging
[12:51] <la00> MonkeyDust>I had ubuntu 14.04LTS untill last weekend
[12:52] <la00> MonkeyDust>I've seen some screencasts telling that 15.04 has some performance improvs on dash and other cool stuff, so I decided I should upgrade
[12:52] <MonkeyDust> la00  14.04 is a good choice, i use it too
[12:52] <fearnothing-alt> I'm trying to spin up a machine which is fully encrypted, however I need to be able to create a gold image of the OS with the required tools installed
[12:52] <fearnothing-alt> what would be the best way to do that?
[12:53] <MonkeyDust> fearnothing-alt  what's a gold image?
[12:53] <ioria> SopaXT, ifconfig detect the card or it says no wireless extensions ?
[12:53] <cfhowlett> !uck | fearnothing
[12:53] <fearnothing-alt> ubottu - that sounds pretty good, I'll look at that
[12:53] <fearnothing-alt> oh lol
[12:53] <la00> MonkeyDust>on the upgrade process there are a lot of packages that can't be upgraded...an now my system is realy slow...and apt-get install -f fails
[12:53] <cfhowlett> :)
[12:53] <fearnothing-alt> cfhowlett: thanks
[12:53] <fearnothing-alt> didn't see your command
[12:53] <cfhowlett> happy2help! fearnothing
[12:54] <MonkeyDust> la00  yes, stick to 14.04, or reinstall it... it's supported until 2019 or so (i forget)
[12:56] <la00> MonkeyDust>yep...I need to reinstall it...really boring :S and I'll never upgrade again lol
[12:56] <fearnothing-alt> cfhowlett: I don't see anything in there about including software that's been compiled from source
[12:56] <la00> MonkeyDust>this happens all the time...that's why I only did the upgrade last weekend
[12:57] <fearnothing-alt> does that mean it doesn't support that?
[12:57] <cfhowlett> fearnothing, hmm.  I would think so.  It IS a method to produce your own customized OS.
[12:57] <cfhowlett> but I've not used it enough to know the explicit answer to your question.
[12:57] <MonkeyDust> la00  lesson learned: use LTSs ... 16.04, in april, is the next
[12:59] <la00> MonkeyDust>lol yup...since that my production PC

[13:36] <WillyWonka> does anyone know about rEFInd and/or gdisk?
[13:38] <WillyWonka> i want to create a triple partition for a triple boot option with windows and ubuntu. I heard rEFInd and gdisk are good but i can figure out how to use it
[13:38] <WillyWonka> any ideas?
[13:40] <WillyWonka> sup
[13:41] <fearnothing-alt> I used rEFInd a while back for putting ubuntu on my Mac, but it's been too long I'm afraid
[13:41] <fearnothing-alt> actually not ubuntu, it was something else
[13:41] <fearnothing-alt> but regardless, too long ago for me to be of help
[13:42] <WillyWonka> fearnothing-alt: cool, how did you create the partition?
[13:42] <fearnothing-alt> in disk utility I think
[13:42] <WillyWonka> if you dont remember its cool
[13:42] <fearnothing-alt> hfs+ partitions can be resized without removing data
[13:43] <WillyWonka> really.... and all this time i thought i had to use something else to create a partition for an OS
[13:43] <drdozer> hi - I think my package management is all muddled up
[13:43] <fearnothing-alt> although having read enough of the HFS+ spec to understand how it locates files, I still don't know the algorythms for actually updating it
[13:43] <WillyWonka> fearnothing-alt: did you install windows on your mac too?
[13:43] <fearnothing-alt> at one point yes, but not at the same time
[13:44] <drdozer> I'm stuck with mysql hanging on update, and various packages with version problems

[13:51] <k1l> drdozer: ok, first change the partner repo in your sources.list from oneiric to vivid.
[13:52] <biborn> guys, what's the meaning of adding a backslash in the terminal?
[13:52] <joe_w> hardtail; cant help fix--but has an issue earlier today with similar mouse issue on 15.04 with usb 2 mouse
[13:52] <hateball> biborn: escaping command characters
[13:52] <biborn> hateball: such as?
[13:52] <drdozer> k1l: done, and re-run the apt command
[13:53] <Hardtail> joe_w ok, is it still an issue for you?
[13:53] <biborn> when i do that, the command does not come back to me.
[13:53] <k1l> drdozer: wait, there is more to do :)
[13:53] <biborn> i mean, no root@localhost #:
[13:53] <drdozer> :)
[13:53] <joe_w> it just started working again...sorry..

[13:55] <HoloPed> Hey all, I'm trying to install Ubuntu Server to an SD card in a small board computer (MinnowBoardMax). I boot from a USB drive. EFI sees the SD card, but when I get to the point in the installation to choose drive, Ubuntu installation doesn't list the SD (just the USB). Any ideas why ?
[13:55] <k1l> drdozer: ok, there are still some PPAs pointing to oneiric, which is wrong when you are on vivid.
[13:55] <cfhowlett> drdozer, wrong on ANY distro as oneiric is dead and eol
[13:56] <hateball> biborn: none that I know. would help if you pasted the actual command so we could stop guessing
[13:56] <k1l> drdozer: bad that is like some homework for you when its not the cause of your issue :)  please pastebin the "apt-cache policy mysql-server-5.6"
[13:56] <joe_w> hardtail; mine first would only go diaganal and not click, then would click, then not move,,,,may be some one knows the issue and can resolve

[14:01] <drdozer> k1l: done -- it says "33 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them."

[14:04] <drdozer> k1l: thanks - full-upgrade failed, but then install worked and now full-upgrade is working
[14:04] <MonkeyDust> notionSunday  wrong question, you should ask how to get past the login screen
[14:05] <notionSunday> i just did a fresh install yesterday
[14:05] <notionSunday> did all the updates
[14:05] <v0lksman> got my answer...order does matter.
[14:06] <notionSunday> when i booted my pc today it said more updated needed to be installed and they had already been downloaded
[14:06] <Kalimero> entrydns is shutting down on 30.09.15. i loved the way i could update my ip via curl. is there a way to handle it similiarly with other dns hoster?
[14:06] <notionSunday> i did that and it said to reboot
[14:06] <Kalimero> or even update it from the os itself some other wy
[14:07] <MonkeyDust> notionSunday Kalimero  keep your question in one line, that's easier to read and repeat
[14:07] <notionSunday> ok
[14:07] <notionSunday> whats the key to hit on bootup to do a safe mode boot or something?
[14:07] <notionSunday> so i can get to my restore
[14:07] <Kalimero> MonkeyDust: right but figured the 2nd part after i sent the previous one
[14:08] <MonkeyDust> notionSunday  durong boot, hold the shift key, to go to the grub menu... choose recovery
[14:09] <drdozer> k1l: thanks -- all updated now
[14:09] <drdozer> so what should I do with all these outdated PPAs?
[14:09] <drdozer> I'm guessing that ideally they should all be vivid?
[14:10] <k1l> drdozer: remove them with ppa-purge or see if they offer packages for vivid (if you still want that ppa packages)
[14:11] <balance1> what's the proper command to shut down ubuntu?
[14:11] <cfhowlett> balance1, sudo shutdown
[14:11] <MonkeyDust> balance1  sudo shutdown now ... sudo init 0
[14:11] <MonkeyDust> cfhowlett  was faster
[14:12] <balance1> cfhowlett, MonkeyDust ty
[14:12] <cfhowlett> :)   sudo init 0                is faster than my suggestin
[14:12] <balance1> cfhowlett, wheres the difference?
[14:13] <notionSunday> got it working
[14:13] <cfhowlett> balance1, gotta send you to the man pages.  the differences are too subtle for me to explain
[14:13] <jpds> MonkeyDust / cfhowlett: sudo shutdown -h now # surely?
[14:13] <balance1> cfhowlett, kk
[14:14] <notionSunday> didnt do a recovery...but selected the other version in the grub menu
[14:14] <Blame> so I am encountering an odd behavior the nature of which is making it hard to lookup properly due to overloaded terms. When I click on a terminal window (to highlight text) it prints "E4#E4" or "B3#B3" and does not select text.
[14:17] <gogeta> all is silent
[14:20] <rockstar_> is there anyway, I can stream 360 video from Ubuntu to my android phone for Google cardboard with headtracking?
[14:21] <chrisss123456> anyone use imageJ? it's completely unusable on my end, and i'm wondering why
[14:21] <gogeta> chrisss123456, getting any errors
[14:22] <chrisss123456> gogeta: no, just can't change window size without it bugging, if you try to set the scale the window is unfindable, and then you can't actually do it, but no errors anywhere. just seems really buggy
[14:22] <notionSunday> how do i remove a grub entry?
[14:23] <notionSunday> i got -28-generic and -25-generic the 28 one is cause my hang up
[14:23] <notionSunday> how do i remove it?
[14:24] <ment0s_> hi
[14:24] <makara> hi
[14:24] <ment0s_> could someone advise if command "iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -d example.com -j ACCEPT " would work if I want to allow all outgoing connections on all ports to example.com ?
[14:24] <k1l> notionSunday: remov the kernel-image package
[14:24] <bazhang> #netfilter ment0s_
[14:24] <ux2> ello
[14:25] <ment0s_> bazhang: netfilter is quiet
[14:25] <gogeta> ment0s_, !ufw
[14:25] <gogeta> ment0s_, use ufw a easer way of ealing with ip tables
[14:25] <EoN> guys i'm new to ubuntu (has been a long while). netbeans is defaulting to install in /usr/local/netbeans ... shouldnt it be installed in /usr/local/bin/netbeans ?
[14:26] <EoN> why is it doing that? i can change it of course, but just looking for a sanity check.

[14:36] <axisys> any suggestion on workaround?
[14:37] <Cerealkill3r> axisys, run sudo apt-get update?

[14:40] <MonkeyDust> notafads  is that a server? if yes, there's also #ubuntu-server
[14:40] <notafads> MonkeyDust, i know just normally no one in there is nearly as helpful
[14:41] <notafads> im also willing to pay if completed dont know if that changes anything
[14:42] <axisys> Cerealkill3r: http://dpaste.com/2WH86B5.txt
[14:42] <axisys> Cerealkill3r: no luck :-(
[14:42] <MonkeyDust> notafads  paid support is not here, you should contact canonical for it
[14:42] <notafads> MonkeyDust, well i am just offering as a token of gratitude
[14:44] <k1l> axisys: apt-cache policy initramfs-tools
[14:45] <k1l> axisys: after that please: apt-cache policy lvm2

[14:51] <k1l> axisys: look, the packages come from the kali repo. which means you use kali and not ubuntu. so please ask kali to fix their stuff
[14:51] <k1l> !kali | axisys
[14:53] <axisys> k1l: removed kali from repo
[14:53] <axisys> k1l: not sure when I added that.. but now that it is gone.. still seeing some issue

[15:52] <calgary> Hello. Is this ubuntu chat/support?
[15:53] <OpenSorce> calgary, theoretically
[15:53] <calgary> Nice. IRC is confusing for me so I wasn't sure this was the right channel. How would I reverse the direction of the mouse scroll wheel scrolling under ubuntu?
[15:54] <k1l> OpenSorce: are you sure linux-generic is installed? is the video driver from the ubuntu repo or from some website?
[15:54] <Kaloupp> hello; i have a question concerning google sphere. Is there a way to read a sphere on my computer out of the navigator with a software ? on linux ? Thanks a lot !
[15:54] <calgary> The way I would like it set up, is the same as a touch gesture. Move up to scroll the page up and reveal new text to the bottom. The wheel on my mouse in Ubuntu is backwards.
[15:54] <OpenSorce> k1l, yes it's linux-generic and video driver from the repos
[15:55] <loa> OpenSorce, i think you have problems with initramfs for some reason.
[15:55] <calgary> I have looked in the Mouse & Tocuhpad settings and there's nothing there for it.
[15:55] <reisio> Kaloupp: probably with google earth
[15:55] <k1l> OpenSorce: why is it unbootable?
[15:55] <OpenSorce> k1l, loops back to the bios screen
[15:55] <k1l> OpenSorce: is it special hardware?
[15:56] <k1l> OpenSorce: any errors when upgrading? dkms missing?
[15:56] <Kaloupp> @reisio, i am looking for a software undepending the web navigator
[15:56] <OpenSorce> k1l, pen tablet screen? No errors during updates
[15:56] <reisio> Kaloupp: google earth is a "desktop app"
[15:56] <reisio> http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/80291/how-to-display-wgs-1984-web-mercator-auxiliary-sphere-services-in-google-earth
[15:57] <k1l> OpenSorce: well, there should be a reason why it failes to boot. we need that info to see how to repair that
[15:57] <regedit_> BluesKaj: BTW i got to the initial root cause of my audio problem, and even reverted back to the initial pulse+gstreamer setup. Of course, it was my own fault: when messing around with audio stuff some time ago i left the input/outputs in a bad state, outputting to some nonexisting HDMI instead of the analog speakers
[15:57] <OpenSorce> k1l, yep. So what am I looking for?
[15:57] <Kaloupp> @reiso, thanks for answer. i would like to find a free software if it is possible ?
[15:58] <calgary> Apparently there's a setting for it in trackpad settigns but I can't open that on ym desktop machine. It's not showing the trackpad options.
[15:58] <BluesKaj> regedit, ok, if pulseaudio's extra processing doesn't bother you :-)
[15:58] <k1l> OpenSorce: errors from updates (/var/apt/) or the dmesg/syslog from the boot where it did hang
[15:59] <reisio> Kaloupp: r-e-i-TAB
[15:59] <tablap> k1l, this is OpenSorce on the problem machine
[16:00] <reisio> Kaloupp: gmt should do it
[16:00] <reisio> Kaloupp: and probably others
[16:00] <calgary> This mouse is almost unusable because of this :(
[16:01] <OpenSorce> k1l, /var/apt no such file or directory
[16:02] <k1l> OpenSorce: sry, /var/log/apt/
[16:03] <OpenSorce> k1l, lol... half awake myself. I knew that :-P
[16:04] <OpenSorce> k1l, will it generate error messages if the kernel never loads?
[16:05] <mbuf> hitting TAB in the TTY console prints a dot instead of auto-completion, what could be the problem? it works fine on gnome-terminal under X
[16:07] <natig> winamp
[16:08] <reisio> mbuf: hit CTRL+c and try again
[16:08] <k1l> OpenSorce: hmm. try to edit the grub and remove splash and plymouth to see what the issue is
[16:10] <mbuf> reisio, k1l I changed to a white background and I don't see it now
[16:10] <OpenSorce> k1l, yeah splash has been gone. It just doesn't load the new kernel no errors, nothing printed on the screen just back to the bios screen
[16:10] <OpenSorce> err... post screen... you know what I mean
[16:11] <mohan1989> can any one suggest a best book to learn linux shell commands ?
[16:11] <mohan1989> If possible suggest a good open source book
[16:12] <k1l> OpenSorce: and what do you do if you "repair" it?
[16:12] <mbuf> mohan1989, "UNIX Conceps & Applications" by Sumitabha Das
[16:12] <mbuf> mohan1989, it has both commands and output
[16:12] <OpenSorce> k1l, boot to the last stable kernel uninstall and reinstall the new kernel via apt
[16:13] <mohan1989> @mbuf ok. Thank you
[16:13] <calgary_> no-one knows how to revetrse the scroll wheel in ubuntu? there's lots of stuff on the web that just says 'set it in trackpad optoins' but i dont have trackpad options on my system.
[16:13] <mohan1989> @mbuf: What is the best open source magazine you suggest for regular reading ?
[16:13] <OpenSorce> k1l, and it works every time. I just want to figure out why the software updater is doing it wrong.
[16:14] <mbuf> mohan1989, there is no best in F/OSS; everyone has their likes and dislikes
[16:14] <mbuf> mohan1989, I read and write for OSFY
[16:14] <k1l> OpenSorce: can you pastebin the /var/log/apt/term.log
[16:14] <OpenSorce> k1l, I want my wife to trust that she can let her system update on her own without having to get me to do this every time.
[16:14] <OpenSorce> k1l, yep one sec
[16:15] <mbuf> where are the list of TTY colors that can be used as background defined in Ubuntu?
[16:15] <k1l> OpenSorce: yeah, we need to find what is going wrong to fix it.
[16:15] <mohan1989> @mbuf You OSFY india edition ?
[16:15] <mbuf> mohan1989, yes
[16:16] <mohan1989> @mbuf thank you
[16:16] <mbuf> mohan1989, you are welcome
[16:16] <Silenced> Guys trying to install amd drivers . Keep getting this error "no supported adapters detected "
[16:17] <Silenced> What should i do now ?
[16:18] <mohan1989> @mbug i could not download "UNIX Conceps & Applications" by Sumitabha Das from google
[16:18] <mbuf> mohan1989, go buy the book
[16:18] <mbuf> mohan1989, in F/OSS we respect copyright
[16:18] <mohan1989> @mbug Me asking for open source books only. Not copy right books
[16:19] <mbuf> mohan1989, all books are protected by copyright
[16:19] <mbuf> mohan1989, later
[16:19] <mohan1989> @ mbuf. Oh. ok
[16:19] <OpenSorce> k1l, pastebin.ubuntu.com seems to be taking it's time... one sec
[16:19] <mohan1989> @mbuf Then i buy the book if there is no open source tutorial for learning commands
[16:20] <mbuf> mohan1989, you can search for tutorials online. I prefer the book
[16:20] <OpenSorce> k1l, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12321802/
[16:20] <poorUser> OT: copyright and patents are a cancer of this world...
[16:20] <jpds> mohan1989: http://linuxcommand.org/ ?
[16:21] <jpds> poorUser: Sure, but I'm sure the authors of these books would like money to buy food though
[16:22] <poorUser> 1 think is the right salary for a work, another is to block develpment for years and grant majors to gain tons of money
[16:22] <pauljw> mohan1989, try this one, i like it:  http://it-ebooks.info/book/2012/
[16:23] <JamesB> Hello. I'm upgrading from Ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04 LTS, and mid-upgrade, the screen just went black. It isn't idle, as moving mouse or keyboard makes no difference. What would cause this and what can I do?
[16:25] <OpenSorce> k1l, I'm not seeing any errors in there are you?
[16:25] <k1l> OpenSorce: sorry was afk making new coffee which made me clean the whole machine
[16:26] <OpenSorce> k1l, I feel ya. http://paste.ubuntu.com/12321802/
[16:27] <mohan1989> mbuf ok
[16:28] <mohan1989> jpds: thank you for the valuable links provided
[16:28] <k1l> OpenSorce: not seeing issues in that log
[16:29] <OpenSorce> k1l, but again I have to run it from the last kernel (Linux PADD 3.13.0-62-generic #102-Ubuntu SMP Tue Aug 11 14:28:35 UTC 2015 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux) so I can manually remove and then install the newer one.
[16:30] <k1l> OpenSorce: strange
[16:30] <OpenSorce> k1l, I sort of want to set it to stop updating automatically and check for updates manually instead but I don't want to miss some important security update :-P
[16:30] <JamesB> So, if an upgrade of Ubuntu fails during install (or in my case, the GUI crashes), how do I abort/stop the upgrade and continue? (possibly from command line?)
[16:31] <k1l> i dont know. /boot is not full.
[16:31] <calgary> OK guys. I fixed it. I had to install a 3rd party app called "Ubuntu Tweak". It adds natural scrolling options to the mouse driver.
[16:31] <k1l> OpenSorce: i would try to boot in grub without the eyecandy and see if there is some error
[16:32] <OpenSorce> k1l, yeah except it flashes back to the post screen instantly. Not really time to read anything on the screen.
[16:33] <k1l> OpenSorce: i got no clue. maybe see if there is anything in the rotated syslog or dmesg.
[16:34] <OpenSorce> k1l, well me either. Thanks for looking though.
[16:35] <ash_work> so, I did sudo apt-get purge skype and I can still launch skype.... is that crazy?
[16:36] <BluesKaj> ash_work, sudo apt-get purge skype*
[16:37] <ash_work> BluesKaj: I'll try it
[16:37] <ash_work> 0 to remove
[16:38] <ash_work> is there a way to find out what package is behind this application?
[16:38] <BluesKaj> ash_work, did you try purging it in the software center
[16:38] <ash_work> erm... I don't know how to do that :P
[16:38] <calgary> OpenSorce: Does the scrolllock key retain its function in Ubuntu?
[16:39] <ash_work> BluesKaj: ^
[16:39] <OpenSorce> calgary, I haven't used that key in decades... really not sure :-P
[16:40] <calgary> OpenSorce: On older systems (i.e. DOS and what came bfore, and some modern BIOS) scrolllock or ctrl+scrolllock will pause it during boot so you can read boot errors.
[16:40] <BluesKaj> ash_work, open the software center and sype in skype , then look for the purge option
[16:40] <OpenSorce> calgary, I think you're thinking of the "pause/break" button
[16:40] <BluesKaj> sype=type ;-0
[16:40] <ash_work> BluesKaj: the only option is "install"
[16:41] <calgary> OpenSorce: I thin kctrl+scrolllock issues a pause/break actually. It's been a long time.
[16:41] <ash_work> BluesKaj: and it doesn't say "Skype 4.3 for Ubuntu"
[16:41] <calgary> OpenSorce: Anyway it might worth a try.
[16:41] <ash_work> BluesKaj: it says, "Client for Skype VOIP and instant messaging service"
[16:41] <ash_work> BluesKaj: which is the only thing skype-related when I search for skype in ths software center
[16:42] <OpenSorce> calgary, yeah I've tried that. It happens too quick to catch it. Like post screen then flash then post screen again.
[16:42] <bazhang> !info skype partner | ash_work
