[00:11] <daveinfla> Good evening all
[00:12] <daveinfla> I'm migrating from a Windows based media server to one running on ubuntu. I want to force all transmission traffic over openvpn, when the vpn drops I want transmission to stop. It would be a bonus to be alerted when the vpn drops too. Can anyone direct me to a straight forward step by step reference?
[00:17] <daveinfla> anyone home?
[00:38] <Bashing-om> hypernova: How are you coming along ?
[00:40] <hypernova> me?
[00:40] <hypernova> horribly
[00:40] <hypernova> i need my own flashdrive...
[00:42] <Bashing-om> hypernova: :( . Flash drives are plentiful and cheap, here in the States. Grab a new one fairly quick here .
[00:43] <HackerII> even for a quickie, you could use an sd card in a pinch
[00:46] <zorlac> hello all
[00:48] <rakesh> hi
[00:49] <Guest18301> rakesh
[00:51] <hypernova> i have one
[00:51] <hypernova> it has important stuff
[00:51] <hypernova> and theres no room on my second computer to back it up...
[00:52] <hypernova> so stupid
[00:52] <hypernova> my mom won't share her sd card...
[00:52] <hypernova> is there any way to mount a iso on a flash drive with out wiping the data
[00:53] <hypernova> mabye i can compress the files on my flashdrive
[00:53] <hypernova> and copy them to the desktop
[00:53] <hypernova> then wipe it
[00:53] <hypernova> then put them back there when im done...
[00:54] <Bashing-om> hypernova: IF you can boot to grub presently, there ia another path to get us something we can boot .
[00:54] <hypernova> yes i have grub
[00:54] <hypernova> and network
[00:55] <hypernova> gnu grub version 2.02
[00:55] <Bashing-om> hypernova: Have a read and consider : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot .
[00:56] <HarrySacks> Does Canonical spy on what you do on your computer when you use ubuntu?
[00:56] <HackerII> get a life
[00:57] <HarrySacks> HackerII, and you need to repent or you will go to eternal torment
[00:57] <HackerII> youll pass me on the way
[00:57] <HarrySacks> Because I called and you refused,
[00:57] <HarrySacks> I stretched out my hand and no one paid attention;
[00:57] <HarrySacks> 25
[00:57] <HarrySacks> And you neglected all my counsel
[00:57] <HarrySacks> And did not want my reproof;
[00:57] <HarrySacks> 26
[00:58] <hypernova> Bashing-om, im not sure how that would work walk me through?
[00:58] <hypernova> i just need to compress 12 gb of files into less then 6
[00:58] <hypernova> and then i have enough room on my computer to back up my flash drive contents
[00:59] <hypernova> then i can just wipe my flash drive and use it...
[01:01] <Bashing-om> hypernova: Nevermind, I can not come up with a means (non ubuntu) to copy the .iso to the install . We would have to have the .iso file present in the install .
[01:01] <hypernova> yes
[01:01] <hypernova> i have a idea
[01:02] <hypernova> i need to figure out how to compress the data on my flashdrive to store it
[01:02] <hypernova> on my comp
[01:02] <hypernova> my other comp is amlost out of room
[01:02] <hypernova> from backing up stuff
[01:02] <hypernova> i will compress the data on my flash drive
[01:02] <hypernova> then mount the iso
[01:02] <hypernova> then boot ubuntu
[01:02] <hypernova> then put my important files back on the flash drive and un compress them
[01:02] <hypernova> problem sloved
[01:02] <hypernova> solved
[01:07] <Bashing-om> hypernova: Humm .. If it is your thought to boot the .iso from the thumb drive, do not think grub has the ability to see an external device . BUT, we can try .
[01:08] <hypernova> no no
[01:08] <hypernova> im just going to instal ubunto on a second hardrive
[01:08] <hypernova> and then pull data from my shot one
[01:08] <hypernova> if i can
[01:08] <hypernova> becuase it might just be freid
[01:08] <rockstar_> I am trying to installing Ubuntu in Aus EEE PC, which currently has Windows 7. Booting laptop goes directly to Windows 7, any suggestion?
[01:08] <hypernova> its from when i was 10
[01:08] <hypernova> yes
[01:08] <hypernova> change your boot order
[01:08] <hypernova> in the bios
[01:09] <hypernova> to boot ubunto first  ;P
[01:09] <hypernova> right bashing om?
[01:09] <michael_p> hehhe made another panel a filed it with ircns
[01:09] <michael_p> filled
[01:10] <rockstar_> hypernova: haven't installed Ubuntu yet, but bootable usb stick is ready. I couldn't seem to get the boot option, when I tab Esc when restarting the laptop
[01:11] <michael_p> running xbuntu
[01:11] <Bashing-om> hypernova: Anyway you can come up with to boot up a 'buntu is good .
[01:12] <hypernova> ohh ok rockstar_
[01:12] <hypernova> just hit f12 or f2
[01:12] <hypernova> when you power on your bios
[01:12] <hypernova> it will say a button to change boot order or enter bios settings
[01:12] <hypernova> plug your usb in
[01:12] <hypernova> when computers turned off and boot it up
[01:13] <hypernova> then enter bios
[01:13] <hypernova> change bot order to boot from flashdrive before harddrives
[01:13] <hypernova> then you can set it up
[01:13] <rockstar_> hypernova: yup, I looked up its bios (F9) and boot menu(Esc) shortcuts. But Esc is directly taking me to windows startup.
[01:13] <hypernova> it should not
[01:14] <hypernova> try your bios
[01:14] <hypernova> you have to get to the bios menu
[01:14] <hypernova> to change your boot oder
[01:14] <hypernova> whats your laptop model?
[01:14] <rockstar_> hypernova: Asus EEE PC
[01:15] <rockstar_> hypernova: I was following this forum thread, where elliott678 gives shortcut info - http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/asus-eee-pc-netbook-booting-from-a-usb-stick-870921/
[01:15] <hypernova> https://craftedflash.com/howto-video/how-boot-asus-eee-pc-netbook-usb-flash-drive
[01:15] <hypernova> can i google this for you?
[01:17] <rockstar_> hypernova: thanks, I will give this a try :)

[01:18] <hypernova> seems my mouse is dying also...
[01:18] <hypernova> my cord seems to giving out
[01:18] <hypernova> im not having a good week..
[01:20] <azizLIGHT> how much ram should i need for livecd testing in a vm?

[01:21] <hypernova> and 20 yr old parts
[01:21] <hypernova> i just upgraded my computer from a cardboard box today
[01:21] <hypernova> to a wooden box
[01:21] <hypernova> my mouse is from 2010 about
[01:21] <hypernova> someone gave it to me for helping then

[01:23] <rockstar_> hypernova: thanks, you are young and wise haha. And if things goes fine you will be rich too.
[01:24] <hypernova> yes mabye did you get your computer to boot?
[01:24] <rockstar_> hypernova: by the way, that solution was perfect. Never realized there was boot priority inside hard disk drives in Boot menu.
[01:24] <hypernova> yes there is
[01:25] <hypernova> im glad it worked for you ;P
[01:25] <rockstar_> hypernova: this laptop was my sister's. So I was completely unfamiliar with its BIOS haha
[01:25] <hypernova> yes ok.
[01:25] <hypernova> seems google is quite fimlar with it
[01:28] <edisto> i'm looking to install a gedit plugin for  glsl but I when I cd /usr/lib/gedit/plugins or ~/.local/share/gedit/plugins it doesnt exist to add the plugin
[01:29] <edisto> where exactly is the gedit folder located?
[01:31] <hypernova> in .local?
[01:31] <hypernova> edisto,
[01:32] <hypernova> it might not exsit at all you might have to create it
[01:33] <OerHeks> edisto, see answer http://askubuntu.com/questions/146999/finding-the-gedit-plugin-folder if that folder pugins does not exist, make it
[01:35] <hypernova> yes make it ;P
[01:36] <edisto> ahh thanks much =D
[01:41] <michael_p> one way you can install is apt-get install (name)
[01:47] <vibewill> Anyone know a version of Wine that runs josgos online that use DirectX with greater perfection
[01:48] <cfhowlett> !wine | vibewill
[01:48] <sedd> hell world i new here
[01:52] <vibewill> Correct want to run a game
[01:52] <vibewill> perfect world
[01:52] <vibewill> no more running this wine
[01:53] <vibewill> I wanted a wine version for the wheel
[01:53] <cfhowlett> vibewill, as DirectX is a WINDOWS program, you need either or wine or *possibly* a VM solution.
[01:59] <vibewill> cfhowlett I tendando runs on most wine without success headache
[02:00] <cfhowlett> vibewill, see the wine resources for support and don't forget: wine is an EMUALATOR.  running programs on an emulator rarely gives full performance.
[02:03] <netameta_> anyone familiar with quassel, if so how can i export/import user profile(all of channels and configs)
[02:04] <hypernova> probbly just copy the data where its stored...
[02:04] <hypernova> ive never used it but its most likly just a buch of files you could copy
[02:06] <cpc> hello
[02:06] <netameta_> cant find those files
[02:12] <azizLIGHT> im testing ubuntu 15.04 via vmware workstation 11 on ubuntu 14.04 x64 and in the livecd i cant get it to change the tiny resolution at all from the display settings
[02:13] <azizLIGHT> im stuck in 800x600
[02:15] <SCHAAP137> install the vmware tools, azizLIGHT
[02:15] <azizLIGHT> im trying
[02:15] <SCHAAP137> you could ask in #vmware for support installing the tools
[02:16] <SCHAAP137> i think it's just sudo ./vmware-tools-install.pl, from the disk, azizLIGHT
[02:16] <SCHAAP137> or something similar
[02:17] <azizLIGHT> yep i found it, it was in their tar
[02:18] <SCHAAP137> i think you need to have the kernel headers installed, to build some of those vmware modules
[02:18] <SCHAAP137> azizLIGHT, if the tools install fails, use this command to install the necessary files: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[02:19] <azizLIGHT> now i got a question
[02:20] <azizLIGHT> i did the vmware tools install, but it wants me to logout login. i was going to press ctrl-alt-backspace... but it got me thinking: will this be sent to the guest os, or will the host takeover this key shortcut and kill X in the host
[02:20] <SCHAAP137> no idea
[02:20] <SCHAAP137> that's a vmware question
[02:20] <azizLIGHT> hmm because ive done it before and host took it over
[02:20] <azizLIGHT> that was unpleasant
[02:21] <SCHAAP137> vmware uses ctrl alt as the default host keys i think... virtualbox uses right ctrl
[02:21] <SCHAAP137> so it makes sense that before you even press backspace, the host takes over
[02:21] <azizLIGHT> ohhh you are correct
[02:22] <azizLIGHT> it worked :)
[02:23] <SCHAAP137> nice
[02:23] <azizLIGHT> i got 1900x1200 but no 1900x1080 :/
[02:23] <azizLIGHT> as options in the display
[02:24] <azizLIGHT> SCHAAP137: i misspoke. i dont mean to say ctrl-alt-backspace worked
[02:24] <azizLIGHT> SCHAAP137: i just ran /usr/bin/vmware-user manually. they give you 3 ways to start. run that program manually, logout/login, or restart X
[02:25] <SCHAAP137> i'd just restart the vm
[02:26] <azizLIGHT> well its a livecd
[02:26] <azizLIGHT> restarting it wouldnt help
[02:26] <SCHAAP137> hmm, installing the tools on a livecd is a bit useless in that sense :P
[02:26] <azizLIGHT> hehe yea
[02:29] <hypernova> well
[02:29] <hypernova> my comps still broken
[02:35] <musclez> me too hyper
[02:35] <Bashing-om> hypernova: I got nother thought . Maybe we can boot this sucker from grub, if we tell grub abd the kernel where their files are (??) We can try .
[02:35] <hypernova> idk
[02:35] <hypernova> mabye
[02:35] <hypernova> trying to compress all the files on my moms comp
[02:35] <hypernova> to free up 12 gb of space...
[02:36] <hypernova> need room to put ubunto on the flashdrive
[02:36] <hypernova> im compresssing right now
[02:36] <hypernova> mabye it will work
[02:37] <Bashing-om> hypernova: K .
[02:37] <hypernova> is there anyway to mount a iso to a flashdrive
[02:37] <hypernova> without losing whats already on it?
[02:37] <hypernova> can i create a second partion to boot off of or something??
[02:38] <Bashing-om> hypernova: Never done it, can not say .
[02:38] <hypernova> me neither...
[02:41] <supercom32> For ubuntu 15.04, I noted that when I do a large network file transfer (ie. via sftp), my machine will lock up every 5 seconds or so for about a second, then resume again. Does anyone know what's going on?
[02:47] <sibaar> hello All!
[02:47] <sibaar> I have my /home partition backed up. How can I back up my root partition (which has all of the programs and packages installed)?
[02:49] <hypernova> uhh
[02:49] <hypernova> your home partition has your programs...
[02:50] <hypernova> ask Bashing-om or SCHAAP137 how to propreply back up
[02:50] <legend> hi
[02:50] <hypernova> backing up the whole root drictory is nto the bst approch
[02:52] <legend> I have a file on hard disk about 6.2 GB size. I think the location on hard disk where it is stored has some bad sectors. So i can't copy that file using default file manager. Any way so i can copy that in terminal ignoring errors?
[02:52] <otirc> Hi guys, is it normal to have a guest-... in /etc/passwd
[02:53] <michael_p> hi
[02:56] <Bashing-om> hypernova: Just backing up your /home is the big piece . Only you know what default configs you have changed . All system files are on the (re-)install .

[03:03] <circ-user-BZ2FA> Quick question. Just picked up a ChromeBook and am overall pleased. However I picked it up with the intentions of installing Linux while keeping ChromeOS. Has anyone here tried this? If so what do you think? Worth installing Linux?
[03:04] <circ-user-BZ2FA> My main reason for wanting to install Linux is for development purposes. I'm not sold on web-based IDE's and such.
[03:05] <mahoonam> actually i just purchased a toshiba tecra and i am ready to install linux too...which version?
[03:07] <ubskeur> hello
[03:08] <yean> Buenas
[03:08] <ubskeur> I reported a bug in timidity yesterday, and have now noticed a similar issue in audacity when playing mp3 files
[03:08] <yean> Alguien que hable español?
[03:08] <ubskeur> ie no playback, garbled noise
[03:08] <ubskeur> yean, I don't know spanish?
[03:10] <hogslammer> hi
[03:10] <ubskeur> since the issue effects both timidity and audacity I'm not sure either are to blame
[03:11] <hogslammer> aww man tj left
[03:11] <hogslammer> im trying to figure out why my ubuntu fresh install is not booting unless i use recovery mode
[03:12] <netameta_>  anyone knows how can i export user profile for quassel ? or how do i search a folder in ubunut ?
[03:15] <mahoonam> could i tether ??
[03:15] <ubskeur> netameta_, there is a search button in top right of file browser
[03:15] <ryanprior> I have six apport-check-resume failure "Report system error..." messages that come up every time I boot my computer. I don't care. How can I get rid of them?
[03:21] <ryanprior> I've used Ubuntu for about 9 years now and I always start out with no "Report system error" messages when I install, but they keep piling up and there's more and more until I eventually reinstall the system when I do an upgrade. I've never learned how to just get rid of these errors. Does anybody else have the same experience? Does anybody know how to stop the windows from popping up?
[03:22] <ryanprior> I don't actually care about getting rid of the error. It's reported in Launchpad and I trust it'll be fixed in a future patch. I just want to get rid of the popup.
[03:22] <ubskeur> ryanprior, out of curiosity which error?
[03:23] <ryanprior> ubskeur: apport-check-resume failed

[03:29] <hogslammer> do i have to reinstall if i switched bios from ahci mode to ide mode?
[03:29] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: yes, for an ssd
[03:29] <hogslammer> ok im in now but only recovery mode works to get in
[03:29] <ubskeur> I am slightly annoyed at this bug that has been in the bug tracker for 2 years suddenly affecting me in 15.04
[03:29] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: what kind of drive did you change?
[03:29] <hogslammer> ssd
[03:30] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: then you need set to AHCI right
[03:30] <lotuspsychje> not IDE
[03:30] <hogslammer> ubuntu dont like raid, ahci but ok better with ide, just still need to recovery, then resume. no changes..
[03:30] <hogslammer> no it hates ahci
[03:30] <hogslammer> and hates raid 0
[03:30] <hogslammer> im forced to use ide
[03:30] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: if you plugged in ssd, you need ahci, not ide
[03:31] <hogslammer> but still suffering from boot issues
[03:31] <legend> The file i recovered from Hard disk having bad sectors is a rar file. Some files in it seem to be missing. Can i recover rar file contents in ubuntu?
[03:31] <hogslammer> lotus, ive already been there done that with ahci fresh install, its not working right
[03:31] <lotuspsychje> !info testdisk | legend sudo photorec after
[03:31] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: wich ubuntu version?
[03:31] <hogslammer> i was told that my ssd is wonky on powerup so it needs ide mode.
[03:32] <hogslammer> latest greatest 15.04
[03:32] <legend> ty
[03:32] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: try 14.04.2 for stable + ahci
[03:32] <hogslammer> its intel x25-e is why
[03:32] <hogslammer> nope
[03:32] <hogslammer> ahci is broken for my ssd specifically
[03:32] <hogslammer> nobody has x25-e drives because they are 500 bucks a pop
[03:33] <hogslammer> thus nobody wants to make it work with linux.
[03:33] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: howso broken?
[03:33] <hogslammer> if you know TJ that comes in here will give you some insight to why it dont work.
[03:35] <netameta_> Anyone familir with quassel ? is there a way to export/import user profile ?
[03:35] <hogslammer> its got to do with the power output in the intel firmware, and my motherboard intel chipset that is causing a nonresponding error -16
[03:36] <hogslammer> COMRESET
[03:36] <edisto> i dragged a .lang file to my lanugage-specs folder but it is not showing up on my gedit  highlight mode.... what am I missing?
[03:36] <hogslammer> im going to reinstall in ide mode now
[03:36] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: ok gl
[03:36] <hogslammer> ty for assistance lotus
[03:37] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer:
[03:37] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: did you try bios upgrade?
[03:37] <hogslammer> already latest
[03:38] <hogslammer> looking for a reinstall app for ubuntu, possibly i can reinstall inplace
[03:38] <u111a>    /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER u111a qvugpkvaltjy
[03:38] <hogslammer> other than that i just got a live cd which sucks, and a netinstall cd.
[03:38] <hogslammer> im afraid the reinstall might bork my windows install on the other identical 32gig ssd.
[03:38] <hogslammer> its hard to tell both apart
[03:38] <lotuspsychje> u111a: better change your password now
[03:38] <edisto> lol
[03:39] <hogslammer> if this dont fix linux ill have to just deal with having to go into recovery mode, then hit resume and should bypass the issues with ssd drives.
[03:41] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: did you check firmware upgrades for ssd?
[03:41] <hogslammer> yup all updated firmware for both ssd
[03:42] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: ask in ##hardware for a workaround perhaps

[04:06] <Phveektor> I think it's an hardware thing
[04:06] <Phveektor> Some keyboards do come with function key for such
[04:07] <Finetundra> lotuspsychje: isn't that just for turning it off?
[04:09] <lotuspsychje> Finetundra: thats what you asked, toggle off
[04:09] <Finetundra> toggle on/off, not just off
[04:11] <lotuspsychje> Finetundra: then make hotkey for force : ON also
[04:17] <datapack> Hello all!
[04:18] <azizLIGHT> how much space do i need for a dkestop install of 15.04
[04:19] <lotuspsychje> azizLIGHT: +10 gig would be nice
[04:20] <azizLIGHT> ok thanks
[04:21] <Gurathnaka> Hello everyone. I'm on 14.04 lts. I'm wondering if i installed 15.04, does it support wifi out of the box? By that i mean, i tried installing 15.04 Ubuntu Mate, however i could not connect to the internet, so i did not install it. I am wondering if it's the same with the newest vanilla ubuntu?
[04:21] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: what wifi card chipset?
[04:21] <Gurathnaka> intel, im not sure the exact model
[04:22] <Gurathnaka> but mint and vanilla 14.04 worked fine
[04:22] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: well if you want stable stick to 14.04, if you wanna try non-lts perhaps plugin eth cable to update wifi drivers
[04:23] <michael_p> #blender
[04:23] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: did you try 15.04 desktop?
[04:24] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, i have only tried Ubuntu Mate 15.04. I was going to install it as my primary OS. Im new and distro hopping quite a bit, so i didn't continue because i did not want to be stuck there without internet
[04:25] <Phveektor> 15.04 works fine for a. Clean install. And seems more stable than 14.10 but if u want one with lts 14.04 is gd
[04:25] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: you can always ask in #ubuntu-mate, but keep in mind that LTS is more stable
[04:25] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: you can try a 15.04 liveusb with eth cable plugged in, to see if it recognizes your wifi
[04:25] <Gurathnaka> Well, i was wondering if it's a bug with all the derivative distros
[04:26] <Gurathnaka> i don't have an ethernet cable unfortunately
[04:26] <ubskeur> I'm having issues with some audio programs only making garbled noise, could switching from ALSA help?
[04:26] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: normally intel cards are supported pretty well
[04:26] <lotuspsychje> !sound | ubskeur
[04:28] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, is the software in 15.04 more updated? One of the problems i'm experiencing is a lot of the software seems to be out of date in 14.04
[04:28] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: installing ubuntu is always reccomended to enable internet + updates + 3rd party software during install
[04:28] <Phveektor> Mostly ubuntu disables playing media after a. Clean install, but u can always enable it by installing ubuntu restricted extras from synaptic or using terminal
[04:28] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: every ubuntu version has its own package versions, that doenst mean their danger to use
[04:28] <Gurathnaka> Oh, i did enable it in Mate
[04:30] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: i would reccomend you 15.04 desktop liveusb, just to check if wifi gets recognized
[04:30] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: if it does, you will know its a mate thing
[04:30] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, thanks, I'll try that out.
[04:31] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, a lot of this troubleshooting is for sound that isn't playing at all, rather than some applications making garbled noise
[04:32] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, i did notice a few bug reports yesterday about 15.04 and intel cards when i was trying to find a fix, but i don't remember if it was mate related or not. Oh well, can't hurt to try
[04:32] <michael_p> whats your verdict on xubuntu
[04:32] <lotuspsychje> michael_p: what about it?
[04:33] <michael_p> i like it better then linux minit
[04:33] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: did you try a pulseaudio restart?
[04:33] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, will look into that
[04:33] <lotuspsychje> michael_p: this channel is only for ubuntu support, not polls
[04:34] <Phveektor> Lotuspsychje: lol
[04:34] <michael_p> i know
[04:34] <Gurathnaka> Also, sorry if this is a dumb question, but I don't really understand the whole lts and 15.04 thing. I'm new, so it's pretty confusing. If 15.04 is the newest version then why don't they just long term support that?
[04:34] <lotuspsychje> lts | Gurathnaka
[04:34] <lotuspsychje> !lts | Gurathnaka
[04:34] <Phveektor> There is no crime asking before tryin something out
[04:35] <lotuspsychje> Phveektor: likes/dislikes is something else then asking if the system could handle xubuntu
[04:36] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed.
[04:36] <Gurathnaka> Is ubottu a bot?
[04:36] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: yes
[04:36] <Gurathnaka> Oh, you guys must get that question a lot then, sorry lol
[04:36] <michael_p> i am not worried about polls
[04:36] <geekosopher> adobe-flashplugin fails to update on kubuntu 14.04
[04:36] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: dont worry, non-lts is supported 9months, then you can upgrade to another version
[04:37] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, do you use 15.04?
[04:37] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: no im on 14.04.2 rocksolid :p
[04:38] <lotuspsychje> geekosopher: did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[04:38] <HarrySacks> Does ubuntu spy on what you do on your computer?
[04:38] <Abhijit> hi
[04:38] <lotuspsychje> geekosopher: kubuntu-restricted-extras in your case
[04:38] <lotuspsychje> HarrySacks: no, why do you suspect?
[04:39] <ubskeur> HarrySacks, ubuntu is what you do on your computer
[04:39] <ubskeur> HarrySacks, if you suspect being spied on, try using a packet sniffer
[04:39] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, ah ok. Do you mind if i ask how i could get software thats updated on other distos but not up to date on the software center?
[04:39] <Abhijit> i have a working Centos installed on UEFI motherboard with encrypted lvm. when i try to install ubuntu 15 it detects the lvm. is it safe to just mount my ubuntu partitions to that lvm? will that work? also my centos has uefi boot . but ubuntu only shows /boot in the list not the uefi. shall i just ignore it?
[04:39] <geekosopher> lotuspsychje: nope
[04:40] <lotuspsychje> geekosopher: try installing that
[04:40] <Abhijit> HarrySacks, some dash plugins might be. just disable them
[04:40] <geekosopher> lotuspsychje: giving it a spin
[04:40] <Abhijit> HarrySacks, you can always monitor network traffic and keep record of it using cron when you are not looking.
[04:40] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: thats a bad idea, always use the package versions meant for the ubuntu version
[04:41] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, restarting pulseaudio has no effect. Since I noticed the issue I've restarted ubuntu twice with no effect
[04:41] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: wich ubuntu version is this?
[04:42] <Guest10869> WIRESHARK
[04:42] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, 15.04, no issue before upgrading from 14.10, not working at all since upgrade
[04:42] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: upgrades can get tricky, try a clean install instead
[04:43] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, I mean,i understand it could be a little unstable but in the software center, the media player i would like to use is out of dathe by a year, everywhere else it seems to be updated regularly
[04:43] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: even if you use 15.04 you wont always have latest packages of the main website
[04:44] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: its reccomended to use versions, meant for the ubuntu version
[04:45] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: if you install a newer version manually, you can risk trouble
[04:45] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, clean install is a last resort, anything else you could recommend trying?
[04:45] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: check your syslog and dmesg for sound related issues
[04:45] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, Oh, ok, i see. Well, thank you for clearing that up for me
[04:45] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: maybe tail -f /var/log/syslog in realtime and play with audio a bit
[04:46] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: using 'older' version on LTS example, doesnt mean your unsecure
[04:46] <RNSpharaoh> hi guys, i am trying to uninstall django, it said to delete it from the python site-packages folder but i cannot find it in there, is there an auto uninstall fro django, i have djano1.4 and i want to install 1.8
[04:47] <lotuspsychje> !info django
[04:47] <lotuspsychje> RNSpharaoh: did you try the #django channel?
[04:48] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, Oh i know, but when something isn't updated in a long time, it lacks many features which is a shame. But better stable than sorry :p
[04:48] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, these seem relevant: http://pastebin.com/wm4hPhjv
[04:48] <RNSpharaoh> i thought i was loged in to it :), let me try to find that
[04:48] <xangua>  !latest | Gurathnaka if you are looking for a distro that has latest packages always, maybe Ubuntu is not the distro for you
[04:49] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: yeah that alsa bug line, try reporting a bug for 15.04 or..clean install 15.04 or 14.04
[04:49] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: your choice :p
[04:49] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, 14.04.2 doesn't support my graphics card
[04:50] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: i doubt that, wich card?
[04:50] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, asus radeon r9 290
[04:50] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, I was in here and we concluded 14.10 had fixed a known bug in 14.04.2
[04:50] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: trusty drivers should be the same in 14.04.2
[04:51] <Gurathnaka> xangua, i love ubuntu though, haha. But yes, i do see your point. Like i said, i guess it's better stable, than sorry
[04:51] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: anyway, you could try a 15.04 liveusb, and test sound there?
[04:51] <geekosopher> same problem installing from kubuntu-restricted-extras
[04:52] <lotuspsychje> geekosopher: what error do you get?
[04:52] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, good idea, live cd, thanks
[04:52] <geekosopher> the problem is with flashplugin-installer
[04:52] <lotuspsychje> geekosopher: describe the problem for us plz
[04:54] <geekosopher> it says: downloading http://archive.canonical.com/..../adobe-flashplugin/adobe-flashplugin_20150623.1.orig.tar.gz
[04:54] <geekosopher> it remains so for long
[04:55] <Gurathnaka> Ooh, i had another quick question. Is installing different desktop enviroments in Ubuntu a bad idea? I tried to install the kubuntu desktop earlier, and there were a lot of problems with it and it didn't work very well. Was wondering if i just messed up, or if it's a just generally a bad idea
[04:55] <geekosopher> then the message comes - Installing from local file /tmp/tmp<something>.gz
[04:55] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: the smoothest way, is to install your flavor directly
[04:55] <ubskeur> now libparted bugs -_-
[04:55] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: if you want kubuntu, then install kubuntu desktop 14.04 example
[04:56] <ubuntu936> geekosopher: I had an error out a couple of days ago, that li k is dead try changing the server
[04:56] <ubuntu936> link*
[04:56] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: of course you can install kubuntu-desktop from an ubuntu install also
[04:57] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, thats what i did, but i ended up reformatting in the end, since i couldn't get rid of the kubuntu deskto, which had many bugs for some reason
[04:58] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: clean installs are reccomended just for that reason
[04:59] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, I see, thanks
[04:59] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: if you wanna test flavors in the future, theres always virtualbox also
[05:00] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: you would be able to test any flavor/distro you want from a solid 14.04 LTS example
[05:00] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, I do have one last question to ask before i go (i'm sorry). But is Mint an Ubuntu flavor? Or just based on Ubuntu?
[05:00] <lotuspsychje> !mint | Gurathnaka
[05:01] <Gurathnaka> wow that bot is pretty impressive
[05:02] <geekosopher> ubuntu936: which server did you try?
[05:02] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, well, thank you very much for the help, i appreciate it :)
[05:02] <Gurathnaka> i've got to go now, cya all
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: everyone can choose what he likes, but in my opinion, 14.04 LTS is most solid version ive had
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> Gurathnaka: good luck!
[05:03] <Gurathnaka> lotuspsychje, yeah, i'm thinking i might hold on tight here and explore the other distros through virtualbox or liveusb
[05:03] <cyberalex4life> lotuspsychje, it's quite solid, but nevertheless there are some glitches here and there (usual for linux)
[05:03] <lotuspsychje> cyberalex4life: of course, every system can react different on it
[05:04] <Gurathnaka> thanks again guys, cya around
[05:04] <Abhijit> i have a working Centos installed on UEFI motherboard with encrypted lvm. when i try to install ubuntu 15 it detects the lvm. is it safe to just mount my ubuntu partitions to that lvm? will that work? also my centos has uefi boot . but ubuntu only shows /boot in the list not the uefi. shall i just ignore it?

[05:04] <hogslammer> man which nvidia drivers do i pick, there is like 6 choices
[05:05] <ubuntu936> geekosopher: In ubuntu there is an search for quickest mirror, and the list of mirrors, I assume kubuntu has something, I chose the fastest for me.
[05:05] <cyberalex4life> lotuspsychje, I had to change Alt+F4 to Alt+F3 and F11 to F12 for full screen (tend to not work after some time)
[05:05] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: wich grafix card?
[05:05] <hogslammer> i tried 2 of them and i get a hang to the point of running recovery mode.
[05:05] <hogslammer> 750ti
[05:05] <Abhijit> :-(
[05:05] <hogslammer> oh and ide mode fixed the issue
[05:06] <geekosopher> ubuntu936: ok, trying
[05:07] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: you might not have the correct read/writes on ide mode
[05:07] <lotuspsychje> hogslammer: http://askubuntu.com/questions/425140/unable-toboot-with-nvidia-gtx-750-ti-even-with-latest-beta-drivers
[05:07] <cyberalex4life> hogslammer, try 331, then 331 updates (the updates work better on my laptop with bumblebee and primus)
[05:09] <hogslammer> the old default xorg ones work, but not with multi monitors, it just plays that stupid drum sound for login.
[05:09] <hogslammer> over and over.  will hit that link up and see if i get any new help.

[05:19] <canaima> holaa
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: did you try to format your usb with gparted first?
[05:19] <geekosopher> canaima: kem chho
[05:20] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, had to recreate the partition table
[05:20] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, will putting a partition on fix it?
[05:20] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: its worth a try to format first with gparted
[05:21] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, what do you mean by format? create a clean partition?
[05:21] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: yep a clean fat32 example
[05:21] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: usb creator will wipe it anyway
[05:21] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, it didn't have a partition because I had to recreate the partition table
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: if usb creator fails on you, must be something wrong with it right
[05:24] <HarrySacks> Does ubuntu spy on what you do on your computer?
[05:24] <lotuspsychje> HarrySacks: you already asked this question
[05:24] <HarrySacks> dos it?
[05:25] <lotuspsychje> HarrySacks: please no repeating here
[05:25] <ubskeur> HarrySacks, it shouldn't, if you suspect it is, try a packet sniffer
[05:26] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, sorry to bother you again, but my 14.04 computer is refusing to install updates XD
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: getting errors?
[05:26] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, "check your internet connection"
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: cable or wifi?
[05:26] <ubskeur> wifi
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: and your connected to wifi?
[05:27] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, yes, I can access the internet through a browser
[05:27] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: what command did you type?
[05:27] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, using the software updater application, going to try apt-get now
[05:27] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: yeah try a sudo apt-get update
[05:28] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, "Reading package lists... done"
[05:28] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: then sudo apt-get upgrade
[05:29] <drfoobaz> Hey, any idea why I might start experiencing screen tearing when moving windows as soon as I switch to the recommended proprietary graphics drivers (nvidia)?
[05:29] <lotuspsychje> drfoobaz: wich card do you have mate, and wich ubuntu version?
[05:29] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, 403
[05:30] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: can you pastebin the output plz?
[05:30] <drfoobaz> lotuspsychje: GeForce GTX 675MX and Ubuntu 14 LTS
[05:30] <lotuspsychje> drfoobaz: you know if thats an optimus card?
[05:30] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, won't all fit in terminal, I'll copy most of it

[05:32] <ubskeur> depends on your browser
[05:33] <VFDPrim> oh?? chrome

[05:34] <ubskeur> VFDPrim, go to settings (top right drop down), show advanced options, and scroll down to downloads
[05:34] <VFDPrim> oh well that was easy thank you very much sr
[05:34] <VFDPrim> or ms,
[05:35] <ubskeur> it's very obscure name, hehe
[05:36] <VFDPrim> lol sexless definatly lol

[05:36] <Remoboth> GUys.
[05:37] <Remoboth> I accidentally installed both Java Oracle 7 AND 8.
[05:37] <Remoboth> Is there a way to get rid of 8?
[05:37] <drfoobaz> Any ideas on my graphics issue?
[05:37] <VFDPrim> new card? lol sorry i know NOTHING about computers
[05:37] <lotuspsychje> drfoobaz: not sure, did you try all drivers switch from additional drivers?
[05:38] <ubskeur> VFDPrim, which card?
[05:38] <drfoobaz> lotuspsychje: Hm. How much worse is performance with the Noveau driver? If it performs better on basic stuff and is only slightly worse on games, I may just use that.
[05:39] <lotuspsychje> drfoobaz: best driver, would be the one perfoming best on your system
[05:39] <eswecha> how to specify dependencies in control file while making deb package..?
[05:39] <VFDPrim> last time i had issue i just got a new card becasue the motherboard could not run both my screens
[05:39] <VFDPrim> no issue since
[05:39] <ubskeur> VFDPrim, ok, I thought you had issues with your current card :P
[05:40] <drfoobaz> lotuspsychje: Maybe that's what I should go by. Because everyone always says that you need to switch to proprietary drivers for gaming, but for the games I play at least I've never had any issues with the open source ones.
[05:40] <drfoobaz> lotuspsychje: Thanks for the advice!
[05:40] <VFDPrim> oh no thank goodness lol
[05:40] <lotuspsychje> drfoobaz: there are also gaming tricks for ubuntu, making everything more smooth

[05:41] <eswecha> how to specify dependencies in control file while making deb package..?
[05:41] <zykotick9> drfoobaz: sidenote, nouveau is better then open source, it's free software.
[05:41] <lotuspsychje> drfoobaz: is it for steam?
[05:41] <drfoobaz> lotuspsychje: Mostly Civ (from steam), very little else.
[05:42] <drfoobaz> zykotick9: Yes, yes. :)
[05:42] <VFDPrim> steam can be a pain when it comes to the right driver

[05:42] <Smileychatter> Question: I am looking for the "Ubuntu for android" group page on Launchpad after reading an article = Can someone find it for me please ?
[05:42] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, yes
[05:43] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, uh, didn't restart the service, hold on
[05:43] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: try a reboot and sudo apt-get upgrade again?
[05:43] <drfoobaz> lotuspsychje: Thanks.
[05:44] <lotuspsychje> drfoobaz: clean system out with bleachbit, can make things faster also
[05:44] <drfoobaz> Do I need to restart my machine after switching graphics drivers to test the effect?
[05:44] <ubskeur> drfoobaz, probably
[05:44] <VFDPrim> that depends... mine didnt do anything till restart
[05:44] <drfoobaz> Okay, I'll be experimenting with that stuff now.
[05:45] <drfoobaz> Thanks for the advice guys. Bye!
[05:45] <lotuspsychje> drfoobaz: good luck!
[05:45] <VFDPrim> now it just does waird shit when starting or turning off the comp lol
[05:45] <VFDPrim> stuff** sorry
[05:45] <zykotick9> drfoobaz: sidenote #2, propritary nvidia kernel blacklists the nouveau driver, and _probably_ need to be manually removed...  <- just in case
[05:45] <ubskeur> VFDPrim, mine does weird graphical stuff too, and has done for a while. I just ingore it
[05:46] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, after reboot still getting 403 errors
[05:46] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: firewall/router block by any chance?
[05:46] <VFDPrim> yea mine does this hole dot matrix thing lol wish i could screen capture it lol then says something cant be found and eventualy after about 10 seconds goes to my log in screen and works great
[05:47] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, no firewall, router doesn't block anything, works fine on different computer (same network)
[05:48] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, doing --fix-missing seemed to help
[05:50] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: solved now?
[05:50] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, 11mb of the 28mb installed, still not entirely solved
[05:50] <Smileychatter> Wait is "Ubuntu for android" under this group in Launchpad or is it somewhere else ?
[05:51] <Smileychatter> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/android-tools
[05:51] <sven-> Hi guys. I am about to install PyCharm 4.5 on Ubuntu 15.04. I am trying to figure out where the extracted tarball should be placed before I execute the sh file to install it. Any suggestions.
[05:51] <lotuspsychje> Smileychatter: what are you trying to do exactly?
[05:51] <cfhowlett> Smileychatter, ubuntu for android is abandonware.
[05:52] <ubskeur> sven-, there is a search button in top right
[05:52] <VFDPrim> cant wait till we can get an ubuntu phone in the usa
[05:52] <eswecha> how to specify dependencies in control file while making deb package..?
[05:52] <lotuspsychje> !touch | VFDPrim
[05:53] <VFDPrim> thanks but i got a crap phone and would rather just get to buy a phone with it already on it lol

[05:54] <pepa> seznam.cz
[05:55] <pepa> google.cz
[05:55] <Smileychatter> lotuspsychje: cfhowlett Right, but there must have been a group or a bug on Launchpad about Ubuntu for android at some stage - just trying to find it for a bounty.
[05:56] <lilrebel> I have not used linux in about 12 years, I just installed ubuntu 14 and so far am loving it.
[05:56] <lilrebel> alot prettier than I remember linux
[05:56] <lotuspsychje> !test | pepa
[05:56] <ubskeur> lilrebel, it is great when it works, hence why I'm here :P
[05:57] <lotuspsychje> ubskeur: maybe play with sources: http://askubuntu.com/questions/298177/a-failed-to-fetch-error-occurs-when-apt-get-update-is-run-how-do-i-fix-this
[05:57] <lilrebel> I used to run redhat, but i see it is now proprietary
[05:57] <ubskeur> ubskeur, I have done that, trying a different download server now
[05:58] <lotuspsychje> !discuss | lilrebel
[05:58] <ubskeur> lotuspsychje, what I said before
[05:58] <azizLIGHT> what packages does 15.04 server install if you select LAMP in the setup?

[05:59] <lotuspsychje> lol
[05:59] <Smileychatter> Ok, no-one is helping me so I'm going to put a bounty on that package "android-tools" about ubuntu for android. OK ?
[06:00] <ubskeur> Smileychatter, why do you care about ubuntu for android?
[06:00] <Smileychatter> because I want Ubuntu on android. simples.
[06:00] <ubskeur> Smileychatter, the project has been abandoned, not sure it's worth looking for
[06:01] <azizLIGHT> is this list of packages correct for server 15.04 LAMP: apache2 apache2-mpm-prefork apache2-utils apache2.2-common libapache2-mod-php5 libapr1 libaprutil1 libdbd-mysql-perl libdbi-perl libnet-daemon-perl libplrpc-perl libpq5 mysql-client-5.5 mysql-common mysql-server mysql-server-5.5 php5-common php5-mysql
[06:01] <musclez> is there anyone who can help me a) solve"Alert: /dev/mapper/localhost-root does not exist. Dropping to a shell" when i try to boot, and b) apt-get and dpkg crashes terminal when running dpkg commands... i've lookat at tutoprials on reinstall lvm2.. ive tried running boot-repair.. ive tried resintally kernels.. nothhing is clicking
[06:01] <Smileychatter> It doesn't matter - if there is bug , then there is a bounty , and I'm rich - $50,000 rich - so I'm gonna do it.
[06:02] <musclez> reinstally :)
[06:02] <lotuspsychje> Smileychatter: apt-cache search android, you might find something usefull
[06:02] <ubskeur> Smileychatter, the project is no longer under active development, therefore any bug reporting and fixing is probably unused
[06:02] <lotuspsychje> Smileychatter: abd by the way, you can install ubuntu-touch on some nexus devices: try #ubuntu-touch
[06:03] <lotuspsychje> Smileychatter: there's gonna be an android app emulator on touch pretty soon
[06:04] <musclez> i had root access with live usb. but now i swithced to the boot-repair live cd with no results
[06:04] <musclez> but i still have access
[06:05] <lotuspsychje> !lvm | musclez can this help?
[06:05] <azizLIGHT> how much space should i give 15.04 server with LAMP and small site?
[06:05] <musclez> root says lvm2  is installed
[06:05] <cfhowlett> azizLIGHT, ask #ubuntu-server
[06:06] <lotuspsychje> musclez: maybe #lvm can help too?
[06:10] <musclez> lotuspsychje i posted in there as well... hoever i think i need a miracle worker

[06:31] <musclez> i jsut tried to get into that it didnt work
[06:31] <treelzebub> well, it exists. dunno what to tell ya
[06:34] <pc1161kkc> thai
[06:34] <EriC^^> musclez: what's the problem?
[06:36] <musclez> eric^^ my boot-repair does not see any grub location, options or mbr options. I can only acces my disk though the live USB. when i boot up into recovery mode, i get the error "ALERT!  /dev/mapper/localhost-root does not exist.  Dropping to a shell!" apt-get and dpkg crash when i try to run dpkg commands in terminal with chroot
[06:37] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, are you in a live usb right now?
[06:38] <ubskeur> noo lotuspsychje is gone :(
[06:38] <musclez> eric^^ im in the boot-repair live usb
[06:38] <EriC^^> ok, type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999
[06:39] <musclez> do i ned to be under root?
[06:39] <ubskeur> so I have an alsa bug effecting timidity and audacity on ubuntu 15.04, and a clean install did not fix it
[06:40] <EriC^^> musclez: no
[06:40] <EriC^^> sudo will take care of that
[06:41] <ubskeur> musclez, sudo does commands under root
[06:41] <musclez> i ewmant chroot

[06:41] <Gurathnaka> Hey everyone. I have a lot of music on my iPod. I'm wondering what is the best way to rip it to the computer without using closed source software such as itunes
[06:41] <EriC^^> musclez: no
[06:41] <EriC^^> Gurathnaka: i think rhythmbox can rip them
[06:42] <Gurathnaka> Huh, i wasn't really a fan of rhythembox, i was more hoping i could rip it to my music folder somehow
[06:42] <ubskeur> Gurathnaka, ipods store music in an apple format, so it can be really difficult to work with them
[06:43] <musclez> eric^^ termbin.com:ixg7
[06:43] <Gurathnaka> ubskeur, i never used itunes in windows
[06:43] <ubskeur> Gurathnaka, if rhythmbox can do it, it can also save it to files in your music folder
[06:43] <EriC^^> Gurathnaka: you can, just use rhythmbox to rip it there
[06:43] <TJ-> musclez: did you check the dmesg output in case there are disk I/O errors causing all your problems?
[06:43] <Gurathnaka> none of my things are in aac itunes format
[06:43] <ubskeur> Gurathnaka, oh, what type of ipod?
[06:43] <Gurathnaka> ipod classic
[06:43] <musclez> hey tj-, i dont knwo how to  do that
[06:43] <Gurathnaka> an oldie
[06:44] <Gurathnaka> ubskeur, thanks
[06:44] <Gurathnaka> and eric
[06:44] <ubskeur> Gurathnaka, how did you get the music on there?
[06:44] <EriC^^> Gurathnaka: you can copy them manually if you want, but you won't have a neat dir and names, just 12312.mp3 and 2342342.mp3 as names in 1 dir
[06:44] <Gurathnaka> foobar 2000
[06:44] <monkeyhat> hi
[06:44] <EriC^^> rhythmbox does it well Gurathnaka
[06:44] <Gurathnaka> Thanks guys, i will try that out
[06:45] <Gurathnaka> i appreciate the help :)
[06:45] <Holy_C> hi hi~
[06:45] <EriC^^> musclez: type sudo blkid | nc termbin.com 9999
[06:45] <TJ-> musclez: 'dmesg' is a command that dumps the kernel's log buffer. To view it via a pager, a screen at a time, I usually do: "dmesg | less" and then scroll through looking for issues. You can press "G" to Goto the end of the file and then work backwards, and press "q" to quit back to the shell
[06:46] <ubskeur> where do I view/report alsa bugs? https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug is giving me connection refused
[06:46] <musclez> eric^^ termbin.com/b9x2
[06:48] <EriC^^> musclez: do you have the passphrase of your encrypted partition?
[06:48] <musclez> yess
[06:48] <EriC^^> ok, type sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 bla
[06:48] <musclez> normally it would prompt me for it on startup
[06:48] <musclez> sorry, redo that last command?
[06:49] <EriC^^> sudo cryptsetup ... ?
[06:49] <EriC^^> type it and it should ask for your passphrase
[06:49] <musclez> i opened it thorugh the gui, is that alright?
[06:49] <EriC^^> nah
[06:49] <TJ-> EriC^^: It's a UEFI system, and the reports from last night with random failures of apt/dpkg and unexpected SEGFAULTs made me suspect and suggest either RAM or I/O corruption, plus the UEFI boot-menu has 'lost' the OS entry apparently
[06:50] <musclez> TJ- http://pastebin.com/zsaktsgi
[06:51] <musclez> Eric^^ it says its already mappe doir mounted, do i have to rebot?
[06:52] <ubskeur> anyone know where I can get help with ALSA?
[06:52] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, try rebooting
[06:55] <musclez> ok it accepted the pass

[06:59] <musclez> eric^^, do u want the blkid?
[06:59] <musclez> k
[07:00] <musclez> its mounted
[07:01] <EriC^^> musclez: type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi
[07:01] <EriC^^> hold on
[07:01] <EriC^^> type ls -l /mnt/boot
[07:01] <EriC^^> is it empty?
[07:02] <musclez> total 0
[07:02] <EriC^^> ok type sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot
[07:02] <musclez> yeah before that: mount point /mnt/boot/efi does not exist
[07:02] <musclez> mounted
[07:02] <EriC^^> musclez: type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi
[07:03] <musclez> mounted
[07:03] <EriC^^> musclez: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[07:05] <musclez> im not sure i understand this last step
[07:05] <musclez> nvm got u, its a variable
[07:05] <EriC^^> it's a for loop that bind mounts the virtual filesystems
[07:05] <EriC^^> ok
[07:06] <musclez> include the $'s?
[07:06] <TJ-> EriC^^: for a chroot, the /boot/ file-system should be mounted after entering the chroot, otherwise grub can have problems locating the underlying device (I usually only mount the root-fs and the system mounts, and then do "mount -a" inside the chroot)
[07:07] <EriC^^> musclez: yes, the whole command
[07:08] <musclez> starting with "for i in..."?
[07:08] <ObrienDave> that IS the whole command. copy and paste
[07:08] <EriC^^> yes, for i ... til done

[07:18] <buffon137> I 'm using xubuntu 15.04
[07:18] <bazhang> buffon137, please answer my questions above
[07:18] <buffon137> I don't use PPA

[07:21] <musclez> http://pastebin.com/w9rru7j
[07:22] <EriC^^> musclez: it says the paste has been removed
[07:22] <musclez> http://pastebin.com/w9srru7j
[07:23] <TJ-> EriC^^: The grub-install error is most likely because the system has been booted in legacy mode, or the ESP hasn't been mounted to /boot/efi/
[07:24] <EriC^^> worth a a shot i guess
[07:24] <EriC^^> musclez: type ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi does it exist?
[07:24] <EriC^^> also type mount | nc termbin.com 9999
[07:25] <musclez> i have to reboot now... dpkg crashes the system
[07:25] <EriC^^> press ctrl+c
[07:25] <EriC^^> or close the terminal and open a new one
[07:25] <musclez> ^c appears
[07:26] <TJ-> EriC^^: The 'statoverride' issue is likely due to a package's user ID having been manually deleted from /etc/passwd. Can check on the expected overrides with "dpkg-statoverride --list"
[07:26] <EriC^^> musclez: try alt+f4
[07:26] <musclez> no such file or directory
[07:27] <EriC^^> ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi ?
[07:27] <EriC^^> ok, reboot and make sure you boot the usb in uefi mode
[07:27] <musclez> http://termbin.com/x54u
[07:28] <musclez> alrgihty
[07:28] <EriC^^> TJ-: you mean like sshd being deleted from /etc/passwd ?
[07:30] <TJ-> EriC^^: In this case "amavis" suggests the anti-virus/MTA interface amavisd package
[07:31] <musclez> booted in efi
[07:31] <EriC^^> ok, same drill
[07:31] <EriC^^> cryptsetup ...
[07:32] <musclez> kk
[07:32] <EriC^^> TJ-: how can he solve that?
[07:33] <musclez> do you wnat the termbins or just wnat me to mount everything?
[07:33] <EriC^^> it's ok, just mount
[07:34] <TJ-> EriC^^: apt-get --reinstall install <Package> possibly, or possibly dpkg-statoverride has an option
[07:35] <EriC^^> TJ-: i think something else is wrong too, cause usually grub complains about missing efivars when it's not booted in efi mode
[07:38] <TJ-> EriC^^: From what I saw yesterday with this, the system is quite broken. Lots of erratic and unexpected failures
[07:38] <musclez> eric^^ mounted
[07:39] <EriC^^> musclez: did you run the for i .. done lastly?
[07:39] <musclez> yes
[07:39] <EriC^^> ok, type sudo chroot /mnt

[07:41] <MonkeyDust> Remoboth  use 'alacarte'
[07:41] <Remoboth> MonkeyDust-  Alacarte?
[07:41] <Remoboth> Is that an app?
[07:41] <Remoboth> Or a command?
[07:41] <musclez> eric^^ im in root@ubuntu
[07:42] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, type grub-install
[07:42] <musclez> instal finished no error reported
[07:43] <MonkeyDust> Remoboth  it's an app
[07:43] <musclez> that is a first... notmally it crashes out there
[07:44] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, cool
[07:44] <EriC^^> musclez: type update-grub
[07:44] <Remoboth> MonkeyDust-  Its a menu editing tool... I just want to delete the residuals of an app in the menu and in the system after removing it. :-P
[07:45] <TJ-> EriC^^: If you've not already planned on it, best to use efibootmgr to check there's a boot entry actually 'stuck' in the UEFI vars
[07:45] <MonkeyDust> Remoboth  you mean like purge? try sudo apt-get purge [program]; sudo aptitude purge ~c
[07:46] <MonkeyDust> (that's no typo, it really is '~c')
[07:46] <EriC^^> TJ-: yeah good idea
[07:46] <musclez> it keeps cycling "found linux image: found initrd image: xxxxxx<IP_ADDRESS>-generic for both"

[07:59] <Syncazor> EriC^^: How to install ubuntu 15 onto usb?
[08:00] <MonkeyDust> Syncazor  you mean like a !persistent installation?
[08:00] <Remoboth> lotuspsychje-  THanks
[08:00] <lotuspsychje> !yay | Remoboth
[08:01] <Remoboth> O.k... I want to delete this desktop config file...
[08:01] <Remoboth> Any command to do so?
[08:01] <Syncazor> MonkeyDust: I want to use something like unetbootin
[08:01] <Remoboth> SOmeone here helped me last week.
[08:01] <Remoboth> With this same problem.
[08:01] <EriC^^> Syncazor: if you used unetbootin to install it to the usb, then all you have to do is boot it and install to your hdd
[08:02] <Syncazor> EriC^^: I selected ubuntu then 14_live with unetbootin, then ran it on my pc, and it said invalid kernal image
[08:02] <Syncazor> EriC^^: Because I tried to use 15
[08:02] <Remoboth> /home/usr/.local/share/applications/criticalmass.desktop This is where the desktop config file is stuck. ANy help?
[08:02] <EriC^^> Syncazor: dd the image
[08:02] <bazhang> !lxle | Remoboth
[08:03] <Remoboth> bazhang - I respect that but someone here helped me delete the file last week.
[08:03] <EriC^^> Syncazor: sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M && sync
[08:03] <Remoboth> bazhang - IT is the same file. I just hate to do a clean install of LXLE.
[08:03] <EriC^^> Syncazor: where sdX is your usb
[08:03] <bazhang> Remoboth, ask the lxle support people, its not supported here
[08:04] <EriC^^> musclez: try booting into the system
[08:04] <EriC^^> it should boot, still need to fix dpkg and grub though
[08:04] <EriC^^> musclez: type exit, then reboot
[08:04] <Syncazor> EriC^^: how do i sudo the image?
[08:04] <musclez> i jsut hit reboot, does that mess it up?
[08:05] <musclez> does not boot into normal mode, trying recovery
[08:05] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: what are you trying to doe exactly?
[08:05] <EriC^^> musclez: what did it say?
[08:05] <musclez> it just freezes
[08:06] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: install ubuntu 15 with a usb onto a blank hdd
[08:06] <musclez> same  deal with the recovery mode... dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root does not exist dropping to a shell
[08:06] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: as been suggested, reboot into your usb stick and install on your blank hd
[08:06] <musclez> and then timestamps of usb devices
[08:07] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: but how do i put ubuntu 15 on the usb
[08:07] <TJ-> EriC^^: musclez That sounds like the initrd doesn't have the cryptsetup hooks installed
[08:07] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: you just said you succeeded with unetbootin to make the usb?
[08:07] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: no, it says invalid kernal image
[08:08] <squinty> Syncazor,  when you use unetbootin, use the lower half of the unetbootin screen.... click on Diskimage  > ISO   use the directory selector to select the directory where the iso resides. and  Type = "USB Drive"  plus select the proper usb stick name (eg G:\ or /dev/sb1)  and if you want make a persistence file (for Ubuntu based iso's only)  by filling in the "Space used to preserve...etc)
[08:08] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: because in unetbootin there is no unbuntu 15
[08:08] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: make a stick with this tool:http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
[08:08] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: does it support 15?
[08:08] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, boot the live usb again
[08:08] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: supports any .iso
[08:08] <MonkeyDust> Syncazor  download the 15.04 iso, then use unetbeootin
[08:09] <squinty> Syncazor,  If it is not listed, then use the method I just posted
[08:09] <musclez> uefi or usb?
[08:09] <MonkeyDust> Syncazor  if it's not in the dropdown menu, simply download it
[08:09] <TJ-> musclez: always UEFI :)
[08:12] <musclez> uefi crashes a lot
[08:12] <musclez> i still haven tgot it ot boot
[08:13] <TJ-> musclez: Ubuntu is installed in UEFI boot mode, so to recover it you always need to boot in that same mode, even for the Live ISO
[08:13] <musclez> im back inm
[08:13] <TJ-> musclez: everything points to disk corruption; UEFI mode is working as it should, has nothing to do with the crashes
[08:13] <Syncazor> Data error in ".disk\cd_type". File is broken
[08:13] <Syncazor> Did it corrupt when i downloaded/
[08:13] <Syncazor> Did it corrupt when i downloaded?
[08:14] <lotuspsychje> !md5 | Syncazor
[08:16] <EriC^^> TJ-: should he do a smart test?
[08:16] <EriC^^> or maybe fsck the partition?
[08:17] <musclez> i think this happend when i ran boot-repair for the first time
[08:17] <TJ-> EriC^^: I think both, and I'd check the kernel logs for signs of I/O errors, and it needs a memtest doing, which is problematical on UEFI!
[08:18] <TJ-> EriC^^: I think that update-grub loop might be caused by the /boot/ directory having a looping inode
[08:19] <TJ-> I strongly suspect faulty memory myself; causing corrupted disk buffers that get flushed to disk
[08:19] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, type sudo apt-get install smartmontools && sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | nc termbin.com 9999
[08:22] <musclez> postfix configureation popped up.. is this right?
[08:22] <michael_p> my usb is not showing up
[08:23] <lotuspsychje> michael_p: what are you trying to do?
[08:23] <michael_p>  i am trying to get a directory listing of my usb drive
[08:24] <musclez> http://termbin.com/os0u
[08:24] <lotuspsychje> michael_p: and your usb doesnt jump open?
[08:25] <michael_p> no
[08:25] <EriC^^> anybody know about smart tests?
[08:25] <EriC^^> TJ-: could you take a look at musclez 's smart test? http://termbin.com/os0u
[08:25] <lotuspsychje> michael_p: try tail -f /var/log/syslog and plugin your usb, see what errors come up
[08:25] <TJ-> musclez: That looks good, is there another drive in there that also needs testing?
[08:25] <musclez> no
[08:26] <TJ-> musclez: EriC^^ time for some file-system checks then :)
[08:27] <EriC^^> musclez: type sudo cryptsetup ...
[08:28] <EriC^^> musclez: but don't mount anything
[08:28] <TJ-> musclez: I'm about to leave for a kernel boot test; good luck :)
[08:29] <musclez> tj- thanks again man your help means a lot to mean ive been so stuck for almost a week now
[08:29] <lotuspsychje> TJ-: you also good luck :p
[08:29] <musclez> i really appreciate the time

[08:30] <EriC^^> musclez: type mount | nc termbin.com 9999
[08:31] <MonkeyDust> musclez  i havent followed, what are you struggling with?
[08:31] <musclez> http://termbin.com/mgku
[08:33] <EriC^^> musclez: try sudo fsck /dev/mapper/...
[08:34] <musclez> eric^^ has been helping me fairly thuroughly.. he's seen a lot of the issues that i have been having first hand at this point....
[08:34] <musclez> Kernels wont boot and apt-get and dpkg crash consistently
[08:34] <musclez> http://termbin.com/r594
[08:35] <EriC^^> musclez: did it mention anything else?

[08:37] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, run it without | nc termbin.com
[08:38] <musclez> that was the first part of tha readout

[08:41] <Syncazor> Is it normal for universal usb installer to freeze at 99%?
[08:42] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: did you wait long enough?
[08:42] <musclez> how long syncazor?
[08:42] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, no.  you DID hashsum right?
[08:42] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, type sudo mount /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root /mnt
[08:43] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: 99% can take some time to make persistent
[08:43] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: it's stuck at 99% on wubi.exe
[08:43] <EriC^^> musclez: type sudo fsck -f /dev/sda2
[08:43] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: unzipping
[08:43] <cfhowlett> wubi.  that's why.  Syncazor wubi is dead, unsupported and IT WILL break your installation of 14.04 or later
[08:43] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: wich ubuntu iso did you download anyway?
[08:44] <musclez> deleted inode 122 has zero dtime fix y?
[08:44] <EriC^^> yeah
[08:44] <Syncazor> 15, it was corrupted, md5sum checked, i previously download 14, not corrupt
[08:44] <Syncazor> so im installing 14
[08:44] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, wubi will NOT work with 14.04
[08:44] <Syncazor> http://prntscr.com/7lw50i
[08:44] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: ?
[08:44] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: does it work with 15?
[08:45] <musclez> dop i jsut keep hitting y?
[08:45] <EriC^^> musclez: what's it asking?
[08:45] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, no.  don't wubi.  DON'T.  do a proper dual boot or VM ubuntu inside windows
[08:45] <Syncazor> cfhowlett:  does wubi work with 15?
[08:45] <musclez> "free blocks count wrong for group #N"
[08:45] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, no. no.  and no.
[08:45] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: Im installing from a BLANK HDD
[08:45] <EriC^^> musclez: ok
[08:45] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: so would it matter?
[08:46] <EriC^^> Syncazor: i dont think wubi even works on a blank hdd, it's made for windows
[08:46] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, then why are you even using wubi?   wubi was used to install inside of WINDOWS!
[08:46] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: you have an error on your screenshot, autorun.inf
[08:46] <TJ-> EriC^^: Might be worth scrapping the /boot/ (sda2) file-system and recreating it, reinstalling the kernels and intrds and grub
[08:46] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: but it's inside the ubuntu iso?
[08:46] <musclez> http://pastebin.com/s7uhx7ui
[08:46] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: maybe you should format your usb stick before making the bootable
[08:46] <EriC^^> TJ-: ok
[08:46] <cfhowlett> !install | Syncazor,
[08:47] <musclez> yessss tj- i want to do that.. thats what ive wanted to do
[08:47] <musclez> will that jeopardize my data on the other partitions?
[08:47] <Syncazor> So how do I install ubuntu 14.04 with usb without wubi for blank HDD
[08:48] <EriC^^> Syncazor: which os are you using to make the usb?
[08:48] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, make a proper install CD or USB>  boot CD/USB and install to HDD
[08:48] <Syncazor> EriC^^: windows
[08:48] <EriC^^> Syncazor: use linux live usb creator
[08:48] <MonkeyDust> Syncazor  windows has YUMI
[08:49] <MonkeyDust> Syncazor  http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/
[08:51] <EriC^^> musclez: no, it wont
[08:53] <Syncazor> I crashed
[08:53] <Syncazor> Did anyone answer my question?
[08:53] <musclez> i know kernel <IP_ADDRESS> was the last oen working. .43 was what was being upgraded to wheni was running out of room on my /boot and tried to make space
[08:53] <EriC^^> musclez: ok
[08:54] <EriC^^> type sudo cgdisk /dev/sda
[08:54] <Syncazor> How do I remove wubi from ubuntu 14.04.iso
[08:54] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, no need to remove it from the iso.  just don't use it!
[08:55] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: Isn't it automatically used when you boot with it?
[08:55] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, again:  ONLY If you use windows.  ONLY.
[08:55] <EriC^^> musclez: or nevermind, just type sudo mkfs -t ext4 /dev/sda2
[08:55] <MonkeyDust> Syncazor  no, wubi is a windows program
[08:56] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: So if I boot off my usb on the blank hdd it wont use wubi. :O :D
[08:56] <EriC^^> musclez: sorry sudo mkfs -t ext2 /dev/sda2
[08:56] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, correct
[08:57] <lotuspsychje> i wonder why they still put wubi in 14.04 iso...
[08:57] <cfhowlett> dracula syndrome.
[08:58] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: I'm having a problem, when i boot off the usb, I get a black screen with a blinking '_'
[08:58] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, DID you md5sum the .iso and the USB?
[08:58] <cfhowlett> because a corrupted usb would do what you describe
[08:59] <musclez> eric^^ http://pastebin.com/wzwj3cth
[08:59] <lotuspsychje> maybe he's got a virus on his autoruninf and infected wubi.exe lol
[09:00] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: The ISO has the same hash
[09:00] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, and the usb??
[09:00] <cfhowlett> !md5sum | Syncazor
[09:00] <EriC^^> Syncazor: did you try nomodeset?
[09:00] <Syncazor> cfhowlett: I can't check the usb, since it's not a file
[09:00] <Syncazor> EriC^^: How do I do that?
[09:00] <EriC^^> musclez: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[09:01] <cfhowlett> !nomodeset | Syncazor
[09:01] <Syncazor> I see the keyboard = person in circle then the continuous '_'
[09:01] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, yes you CAN verify the USB.  read the md5sum wiki and replace the CD references/addresses with the USB
[09:02] <EriC^^> Syncazor: hold shift while the pc boots, and when you get grub, press e over try ubuntu, then in the line that says linux /vmlinuz ...... add nomodeset after quiet splash, then press ctrl+x
[09:02] <musclez> eric^^ mounted
[09:02] <EriC^^> musclez: sudo chroot /mnt
[09:02] <colbyf> anyone a program for editing PDFs
[09:03] <MonkeyDust> !pdf
[09:03] <musclez> rooted
[09:03] <lotuspsychje> colbyf: there are also handy free pdf editors online you can use
[09:03] <colbyf> don't see an editor in that,
[09:04] <MonkeyDust> colbyf  i guess inkscape can edit pdf
[09:04] <Syncazor> EriC^^: I pressed shift, selected English then pressed F6 and selected nomodeset, and i still get the black screen with the _
[09:04] <colbyf> I will give it a go :)
[09:04] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: did you disable fastboot + secureboot in bios?
[09:04] <rabiul> use foxit reader on wine
[09:04] <EriC^^> Syncazor: which laptop are you using?
[09:04] <EriC^^> maybe you need to use a special kernel parameter
[09:05] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: No, I'll try that
[09:05] <EriC^^> musclez: blkid | nc termbin.com 9999
[09:05] <Syncazor> EriC^^: I'm on a desktop

[09:10] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, type mv /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride{,.old}
[09:11] <EriC^^> musclez: we'll deal with it later, but we need to remove that so dpkg will work for now

[09:12] <EriC^^> musclez: type dpkg --configure -a
[09:12] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, doable but ubuntu with unity is a hungry beast.  I suggest xubuntu or lubuntu as they are less demanding

[09:17] <musclez> pastebin.com/jdrsngxl
[09:17] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, noted.  I didn't say ubuntu would NOT run, I suggested it would run faster with a lighter load.
[09:17] <musclez> http://pastebin.com/jdrsngxl
[09:18] <cfhowlett> thus xubuntu / lubuntu
[09:18] <ikonia> musclez: what are you doing ?
[09:18] <ikonia> this looks like another chroot mess
[09:18] <Syncazor> cfhowlett:, doesn't really worry me. But what can I do to stop it from being stuck on  [         0.296609] Trying to unpack rootfs images as initramfs...
[09:18] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: its worth a try, to see if you can bypass that error
[09:18] <ikonia> musclez: please tell me you are still not trying to do this in a chroot
[09:19] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: how
[09:19] <EriC^^> musclez: apt-get install --reinstall grub2-common
[09:19] <cfhowlett> Syncazor, someone suggested a boot kernel option.  sadly, I've no idea which one you might need. sorry.  ask again in channel.
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: make lubuntu stick just same way you did with ubuntu iso
[09:20] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: maybe LTS?
[09:20] <Syncazor> lotuspsychje: but why cant  I have ubuntu?
[09:20] <musclez> "man" does not exist, like in the past i sent previously
[09:20] <lotuspsychje> Syncazor: you can, but we have to investigate why your getting that error first
[09:20] <ikonia> musclez: are you doing this in a chroot
[09:20] <Syncazor> During my installation, it's stuck on  [         0.296609] Trying to unpack rootfs images as initramfs... How could I fix this issue?

[09:24] <musclez> http://pastebin.com/lfdjnevv
[09:24] <ikonia> TJ-: I don't believe you've been told the full story of this mess
[09:24] <EriC^^> TJ-: doesn't apt-get install --reinstall run grub-install at the end?
[09:24] <ikonia> which is why I keep asking if this is being done within a chroot
[09:24] <ikonia> as this was a real mess yesterday and it looks like it's continued on from there
[09:24] <EriC^^> nevermind, doesn't appear to have ran
[09:24] <TJ-> ikonia: I'm fully aware, we're just completing a rebuild of the /boot/ file-system which was corrupt
[09:24] <EriC^^> musclez: run grub-install first
[09:25] <ikonia> corrupted ?

[09:26] <ikonia> and the miss-match of packages
[09:26] <ikonia> have you got that all sorted ?
[09:26] <TJ-> ikonia: We've dealt with all the symptoms we've seen

[09:26] <ikonia> wow even
[09:27] <musclez> unable to resolve host lubuntu mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /mnt/boot/efi failed: no such file or directory

[09:27] <TJ-> musclez: EriC^^ maybe "mkdir -p /boot/efi/"   ?
[09:28] <EriC^^> TJ-: yeah we created it

[09:28] <EriC^^> that's ok

[09:32] <musclez> http://termbin.com/ijhb
[09:32] <Syncazor> EriC^^: `any idea?
[09:33] <EriC^^> musclez: did we mount /boot ?
[09:33] <EriC^^> musclez: type mount | nc termbin.com 9999
[09:34] <musclez> htpp://termbin.com/mnvv
[09:34] <musclez> http://termbin.com/mnvv
[09:34] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, type umount /boot/efi
[09:34] <EriC^^> then type mount -a
[09:35] <kvadratrot> I have trouble booting off my usb .iso image of 15.04. Could I talk to someone?
[09:35] <TJ-> EriC^^: there may be files in /boot/ ... best to remove them before mounting sda2
[09:35] <EriC^^> musclez: actually hold on
[09:35] <EriC^^> yeah
[09:35] <EriC^^> musclez: after you type umount /boot/efi, type rm -r /boot
[09:35] <lotuspsychje> !usb | kvadratrot
[09:35] <EriC^^> then type mkdir -p /boot/efi
[09:36] <TJ-> EriC^^: there needs to be a 'mount' in there, first :)
[09:36] <musclez> done
[09:36] <EriC^^> TJ-: right
[09:36] <EriC^^> dang
[09:36]  * TJ- giggles
[09:36] <EriC^^> musclez: type rm -r /boot/efi
[09:36]  * TJ- blames ikonia  :)
[09:37] <musclez> http://pastebin.com/e27vwjin
[09:38] <musclez> past few commands i think im getting mixed up
[09:38] <TJ-> musclez: "type" is an instruction to you, not a command for the PC
[09:38] <kvadratrot> lotuspsychje: I'm avid Ubuntu user and have installed the system before. But today I come in a different angle, my graphic card, at least known so far to me through googeling isnt supported with the out of the box ubuntu drives. I have to download them via ppa when inside. So when I run my usb-drive i get asked to install or run wihtout install but when i do it tries to boot in but when x is...
[09:38] <kvadratrot> ...run it black screens on me. /what do?
[09:39] <kvadratrot> ie im running nvidia 352 currently
[09:39] <cfhowlett> kvadratrot, nomodeset to get a live system then do the installation???
[09:39] <Syncazor> My error: http://prntscr.com/7lwhuz
[09:40] <musclez> tj- lets leave the semantic debate to after i get some sleep
[09:40] <Syncazor> can anyone help me?
[09:41] <ihaveaproblem> hey folks. My filesystem is suddenly read-only. dmesg says this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11782690
[09:41] <TJ-> musclez: where are you at now?
[09:41] <kvadratrot> cfhowlett: *halleluja* then i just add that to the options for install/withoutinstall? both should work?
[09:41] <musclez> that paste bin i jsut sent
[09:41] <ihaveaproblem> When I run sudo fsck -Af -M, I get no error output. Does that mean it's not a harddrive issue?
[09:41] <TJ-> musclez: with the 'not found' errors?
[09:41] <musclez> yes
[09:42] <Syncazor> Why wont anyone answer me?
[09:42] <cfhowlett> kvadratrot, nomodeset is a temporary solution allowing you to boot a system with only partially configured graphics.  You'll still need to set up graphics
[09:42] <cfhowlett> !patience | Syncazor
[09:42] <TJ-> musclez: OK, let's try again. "umount /boot/efi /boot"
[09:43] <TJ-> musclez: "rm -r /boot/
[09:43] <kvadratrot> cfhowlett: Yeah, I quick googled what "nomodeset" was when you typed. My returing question to you was how I entered it in in grub "-nomodeset" ?
[09:43] <TJ-> musclez: "mount -a"
[09:43] <musclez> both not mounted
[09:43] <kvadratrot> cfhowlett: also u r my hero
[09:43] <EriC^^> TJ-: doesn't he need a mkdir /boot before?
[09:43] <TJ-> musclez: That's fine; I was being careful
[09:43] <cfhowlett> !nomodeset | kvadratrot, gotta read the wiki amigo.  instructions are there.
[09:44] <musclez> no such file or directory fo rthe UUIDs
[09:44] <TJ-> EriC^^: musclez I thought we have a /boot/ since "mkdir -p /boot/efi"
[09:44] <TJ-> musclez: "ls /boot/" - do you get a listing or an error?
[09:45] <EriC^^> he ran rm -r /boot though
[09:45] <musclez> yeah tj i think ur confuisign some stuff here
[09:45] <Syncazor> My FULL error, how do I fix it? http://prntscr.com/7lwdzn
[09:46] <TJ-> EriC^^: From the pastebin musclez was prefixing several commands with "type " which caused "not found" errors; the last command before that happened was "mkdir -p /boot/efi"
[09:46] <TJ-> musclez: In case it is missing, do "mkdir /boot"
[09:46] <musclez> i dint type that in.. i was teh readout
[09:46] <musclez> fyi
[09:47] <TJ-> musclez: then do "mount -a"
[09:47] <musclez> im not sure what i shodl be doing knwo cuz ur both telling me two differnt things
[09:47] <TJ-> musclez: In case it is missing, do "mkdir /boot"
[09:47] <EriC^^> nah we're on the same page i think
[09:47] <TJ-> musclez: then do "mount -a"
[09:48] <musclez> no such file or diretory
[09:48] <musclez> we jsut did that liek 3 times
[09:48] <EriC^^> ok hold on
[09:48] <EriC^^> did you run mkdir /boot ?
[09:48] <musclez> yeah
[09:48] <TJ-> musclez: was that "mount: mounting UUID=4da5596e-fd8b-4738-bbf5-56d2c2705ef1 on /boot failed: No such file or directory" ?
[09:48] <EriC^^> we need to do it in steps cause /boot is empty
[09:48] <musclez> yes tj
[09:48] <EriC^^> musclez: mount /dev/sda2 /boot
[09:49] <EriC^^> musclez: /boot or /boot/efi ?
[09:49] <TJ-> musclez: It could have been "mount: mounting UUID=DEE2-1CC0 on /boot/efi failed: No such file or directory"
[09:49] <musclez> ... /boot failed : device or resouce busy
[09:50] <TJ-> musclez: can you pastebin "mount" for us?
[09:51] <musclez> http://pastebin.com/87ptfaup
[09:53] <Ruedii> Hello, I'm having trouble getting Steam to work with Open Source drivers in Ubuntu 15.04
[09:53] <TJ-> musclez: something weird there, we need to see the output of "mount"
[09:55] <musclez> i dont knwo what i should type
[09:55] <ikonia>  mount
[09:56] <musclez> pastebin.com/m65fctv
[09:57] <TJ-> musclez: whatever I show inside double-quotes: "mount"     ... FYI you can automate capture to pastebin using "pastebinit <(the command here)" if the PC has a network connection
[09:57] <Capprentice> How do I implement port mirroring in Ubuntu Server 12.04 ? I want mirror port 1337 to ip : <IP_ADDRESS>! how do I do it?
[09:58] <TJ-> musclez: that was an incorrect URL; did you make a typo in it?
[09:58] <musclez> http-++
[09:58] <musclez> http://pastebin.com/m65fctv7
[09:58] <TJ-> Thanks ... the 7 was missing in the earlier URL
[10:00] <TJ-> musclez: "ls -ld /boot" - should give you something like: "drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 7168 Jun 27 09:33 /boot" - if not, try "mkdir /boot" and then check it exists again
[10:00] <musclez> yup
[10:00] <musclez> it gave me that output
[10:00] <TJ-> musclez: Good :) now "mount /boot"
[10:01] <musclez> no such
[10:01] <EriC^^> try mount /dev/sda2 /boot
[10:02] <musclez> worked
[10:02] <TJ-> EriC^^: musclez: I think there's a syntax error in "/etc/fstab" from the earlier UUID editing
[10:02] <EriC^^> musclez: mkdir /boot/efi
[10:02] <TJ-> musclez: can you pastebin the "/etc/fstab" file ?
[10:03] <musclez> yes
[10:03] <EriC^^> TJ-: termbin.com/ijhb 4da5596e-fd8b-4738-bbf5-56d2c2705ef1
[10:03] <EriC^^> sorry http://termbin.com/ijhb
[10:03] <musclez> pastebin/comipg7bxgq
[10:03] <TJ-> EriC^^: Yes, but it may have changed since, I want to see what mount is tripping over now
[10:04] <musclez> mkdir boot/efi worked btw
[10:04] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, mount /dev/sda1 /boot/efi
[10:04] <musclez> ok
[10:04] <musclez> eric^^'s methods are working
[10:04] <TJ-> musclez: That pastebin URL is bad again "paste has been removed"
[10:05] <EriC^^> musclez: apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64-bin grub-efi-amd64 grub-common grub2-common
[10:05] <EriC^^> musclez: it's the same method
[10:05] <musclez> pastebin.com/ipg7bxgq
[10:05] <xyzzy__> hey guys. Does pidgin not work with facebook chat anymore? Haven't used it in a long while
[10:05] <TJ-> musclez: I know, but if fstab is broken the automated mounts will fail as they are doing for us, so that needs fixing
[10:06] <musclez> ionstallation finished
[10:06] <musclez> no error reported WHAAAAAA
[10:06] <nigga_> hello
[10:06] <TJ-> musclez: right, but we need to sort out the fstab issue else mount will fail
[10:07] <EriC^^> musclez: grub-install
[10:07] <EriC^^> musclez: then update-grub
[10:07] <musclez> done
[10:07] <TJ-> musclez: then please pastebin the output of "blkid"
[10:08] <Ruedii> Hmm, since nobody knows how to fix the steam runtime to properly detect the 15.04 OpenGL stack.  Could someone point me to the instructions on how to downgrade my distro to 14.04, which I know would work?
[10:08] <ikonia> you can't downgrade
[10:08] <ikonia> you need to re-install
[10:08] <musclez> ubfib77w
[10:08] <cfhowlett> Ruedii, no "downgrade".  clean install
[10:08] <MonkeyDust> Ruedii  backup and fresh install 14.04
[10:09] <MonkeyDust> cfhowlett  was faster
[10:09] <ice9> any suggestions for network mapping/modelling application?
[10:09] <cfhowlett> MonkeyDust, hey, I've had a hard day.  ye ole fingers just don't fly like they used to.
[10:09] <EriC^^> musclez: what about cat /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999
[10:10] <musclez> http://termbin.com/hz6o
[10:11] <TJ-> EriC^^: musclez I'm not seeing anything obviously wrong; the UUID is correct, no typos, wondering about whitespace issues but can't see any
[10:12] <TJ-> musclez: let's find out if its fixed itself. Do "umount /boot/efi     /boot"  then try automounting them again with "mount -a"
[10:13] <musclez> no such
[10:13] <cq-aux> hi I'm having trouble changing my mac address, I keep losing the privileges or something every couple of days
[10:13] <ikonia> cq-aux: you don't change your mac address
[10:13] <ikonia> you should not be doing that
[10:13] <Ruedii> ice9, do you mean automatic or just to create the images.   If you aren't automatically generating it from a dataset, I recommend just using a flowchart application.  There is no need for a one trick pony for that.
[10:13] <TJ-> musclez: OK, so we need to figure this out before the system can reboot.
[10:13] <cq-aux> spoof spoof spoof
[10:13] <ikonia> cq-aux: no no no
[10:14] <cq-aux> I'm changing it for the session dude. with macchanger
[10:14] <ikonia> you shouldn't need to change it
[10:14] <musclez> why did we change uuids
[10:14] <cq-aux> I've also tried sudo ifconfig wlan0 hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx this time and I can't change it that way either
[10:15] <ikonia> you can't change it that way
[10:15] <ikonia> you should not be changing your mac
[10:15] <TJ-> musclez: because we created a new file-system in /dev/sda2 and it has a new UUID
[10:15] <TJ-> musclez: Can you "hexdump -C /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999"
[10:15] <EriC^^> musclez: did update-grub work?
[10:15] <musclez> yeah it did from before
[10:15] <EriC^^> grub-install or update-grub?
[10:16] <cq-aux> I had the same problem with macchanger before and I fixed it by bringing down wlan0 first and then stopping network-manager but it's not working this time
[10:16] <musclez> both
[10:16] <EriC^^> cool so it just picked up the kernel and initrd and stopped?
[10:16] <ikonia> cq-aux: you should not be changing your mac
[10:16] <cq-aux> ikonia: yes I should
[10:16] <cq-aux> ikonia: it's only temporary, it's only til the the next reboot
[10:16] <ikonia> not sure why that matters
[10:17] <musclez> i see "adding boot menu entry to EFI firmware config..."
[10:17] <musclez> done
[10:17] <musclez> no specifc image information
[10:17] <EriC^^> musclez: no 3.13 ... found?
[10:17] <musclez> negative
[10:17] <EriC^^> mount /dev/sda2 /boot
[10:17] <TJ-> EriC^^: That's because we haven't installed the kernels yet... I wanted to fix this fstab issue first
[10:17] <musclez> done
[10:18] <EriC^^> ohh right
[10:18] <musclez> rgr that ok
[10:18] <EriC^^> forgot we unmounted and cleaned it and stuff
[10:19] <TJ-> musclez: Can you "hexdump -C /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999"
[10:19] <cq-aux> ikonia: I don't know how where to go from here, I can change the first 6 hex digits of my mac but I'm fearing that that will get me busted
[10:19] <ikonia> "get you busted" ?
[10:19] <TJ-> musclez: this will let us see if there are any 'bad' bytes in fstab
[10:19] <cq-aux> (I'm just using the public wifi to its limit over and over)
[10:19] <ikonia> cq-aux: we are not going to help you break TOC
[10:19] <musclez> termbin.com/oymh
[10:19] <ikonia> please don't ask again
[10:20] <cq-aux> oh ok, coolies
[10:22] <TJ-> musclez: EriC^^ I'm not seeing any weird ASCII/UTF-8 codes there
[10:22] <EriC^^> that's odd
[10:23] <kvadratrot> cfhowlett: yes sire. *over and out*
[10:23] <EriC^^> let's see something
[10:23] <EriC^^> musclez: try mount -a right now
[10:23] <EriC^^> since just /boot is mounted and /boot/efi isn't
[10:23] <musclez> no such
[10:24] <musclez> hmm im in root
[10:24] <musclez> am i supposr to not be in chroot
[10:24] <EriC^^> that's ok, no
[10:24] <TJ-> musclez: This is all to do in the chroot
[10:24] <musclez> kk
[10:25] <eraggo> About ubuntuforums: how do i get access on my OWN profile? vBulletin says that i have no access to my own profile
[10:25] <EriC^^> musclez: let's install the kernels
[10:25] <musclez> 160.0.40?
[10:25] <EriC^^> musclez: mount /dev/sda1 /boot/efi
[10:25] <EriC^^> musclez: the latest one for your ubuntu version
[10:26] <musclez> i think its <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:27] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, mounted?
[10:27] <eraggo> more closely about forum: my settings for editing my profile
[10:27] <musclez> sorry , yes
[10:27] <eraggo> never mind
[10:28] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-generic
[10:28] <musclez> linux image generic is already the newest version
[10:29] <EriC^^> did you type --reinstall ?
[10:29] <musclez> my bad
[10:29] <musclez> boom
[10:29] <musclez> crash
[10:29] <EriC^^> what did it say?
[10:30] <MonkeyDust> musclez  what happened, to make your problem so complicated?
[10:30] <TJ-> MonkeyDust: file-system corruption
[10:32] <musclez> sorry, d/c'd
[10:32] <TJ-> musclez: EriC^^: !!!DING!!!! - I suspect the /dev/disk/by-uuid/ link is missing!
[10:32] <Kopre> Hi everybody. Security question: Makes it sense to make a DMZ at home if you want to host your website by yourself?
[10:32] <EriC^^> TJ-: ok, cool
[10:32] <EriC^^> makes sense
[10:33] <TJ-> EriC^^: You best carry on where you left off, we can investigate that later
[10:33] <musclez> booking back into boot-repair disk
[10:33] <Kopre> EriC^^: Do you know a device (router) that suits?
[10:34] <EriC^^> not to be a party pooper, but musclez can you easily backup and fresh install?
[10:34] <musclez> not really
[10:34] <EriC^^> ok
[10:34] <EriC^^> musclez: sudo cryptsetup ...
[10:35] <musclez> give me a secong the efi keeps crashing
[10:35] <TJ-> musclez: What does "keeps crashing" mean?
[10:35] <musclez> uefi boot disk
[10:35] <EriC^^> TJ-: should he do the memtest?
[10:35] <cfhowlett> Kopre, perhaps a good query for #hardware
[10:35] <musclez> i dont think i have it yet do i?
[10:35] <TJ-> musclez: Like I said before, if there's a general problem with corruption then that needs to be identified and fixed first, else everythin we're doing now could be wasted
[10:36] <TJ-> musclez: how, precisely, does it crash? How far does the boot get, what do you see?
[10:36] <musclez> it waries
[10:37] <musclez> varies, soemtiems i get to desktop.. soemtiems not evn the loading screen
[10:37] <musclez> this time it was "si_disable_ulv failed"
[10:37] <musclez> kernel panic
[10:38] <musclez> im back on
[10:39] <musclez> sudo cryptsetup done
[10:40] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, sudo mount /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root /mnt
[10:41] <musclez> done
[10:41] <EriC^^> musclez: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[10:42] <musclez> done
[10:42] <TJ-> musclez: stop here for a moment
[10:42] <musclez> no problem :P
[10:42] <TJ-> musclez: can you pastebin the output of "ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/"
[10:43] <musclez> yeah 1sec
[10:44] <musclez> http://termbin.com/m380
[10:45] <TJ-> musclez: EriC^^ "si_disable_ulv failed" comes from the radeon GPU driver's si_dpm_set_power_state() method. I'm not clear right now if it is vital at this stage, but I think if it is related to the crashing issues then it may indicate the system firmware setup power management, or else linux <>ACPI  issues
[10:45] <TJ-> musclez: Well there's the problem for the mount - there's no UUID link been created for the file-system in /dev/sda2
[10:45] <musclez> hmmm i had custome drivers from amd installed for a moment.. and then i noticed the had dissapered
[10:46] <TJ-> musclez: sorry, ignore me, I'm blind! It's there :)
[10:47] <TJ-> musclez: EriC^^:  OK, you guys carry on building the chroot and try using "mount -a" inside it to get /boot/efi/ ready
[10:47] <EriC^^> musclez: sudo chroot /mnt
[10:48] <musclez> no such for mount -a
[10:48] <ikonia> this all seems very drawn out, would it not be wiser to just backup the data and re-install ?
[10:48] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, mount /dev/sda2 /boot
[10:48] <musclez> done
[10:49] <EriC^^> musclez: mount /dev/sda1 /boot/efi

[10:55] <heikki_> Hello. I need to debug my server, how can i see what program is sending mail using my postfix from localhost
[10:55] <ikonia> ?
[10:55] <musclez> seems stuck on "upacking linux-image-3.13.0-55-generic"
[10:55] <cfhowlett> !server | heikki_
[10:55] <ikonia> heikki_: the mail logs will show you the user connecting
[10:55] <ikonia> from that you can work out what app is calling it
[10:55] <heikki_> i already know the user
[10:56] <heikki_> i have mysql database for users
[10:56] <ikonia> so whats the problem then ?
[10:57] <heikki_> i need to know what is the real program / script sending the mail
[10:57] <ikonia> the mail logs should give you a clue as to what's been called
[10:57] <ikonia> as mysql users are unlikley to be system users, it must be some app (I'd assume a web app) that the user can access
[10:57] <musclez> yeah it froze on that
[10:58] <heikki_> yea, but i cannot find the app.
[10:59] <ikonia> heikki_: what have you done to try and trace it ?
[10:59] <heikki_> nothing really, because tracing mail sender programs is a new area for me
[11:00] <ikonia> ok - so I've just told you how to start
[11:00] <heikki_> i just know that the log says something about postfix/qmgr
[11:00] <ikonia> postfix is hte name of the account running the mail server, you need the other details
[11:01] <heikki_> i know what is postfix, and i think i know what qmgr is
[11:02] <ikonia> then why are you struggling ?
[11:03] <ikonia> when I give you guidence you keep saying "I know"
[11:03] <Preston> Hello, I am trying to build PythonQt libraries, but after I run make, I get error -> ... fatal error: qgl.h: No such file or directory  #include <qgl.h> . I have OpenGL installed.
[11:03] <ikonia> but you don't know how to take it forward
[11:03] <heikki_> yes
[11:04] <heikki_> ok, as an example, if i have a line like this: Jun 27 13:53:19 servername postfix/qmgr[3225]: 14D6F2AA66: from=<email@hidden>, size=897660, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
[11:04] <ikonia> "why are you struggling" ??? the answer is not "yes"
[11:04] <heikki_> :)
[11:05] <ikonia> is this your server ?
[11:05] <heikki_> yes
[11:05] <ikonia> as in did you set it up / do you manage it ?
[11:05] <Preston> Can anybody help?
[11:05] <heikki_> yes / yes
[11:05] <ikonia> ok - so is the mail server set to auth before relay ?
[11:06] <heikki_> if you mean open relay, only localhost is allowed to relay without auth
[11:06] <ikonia> no, I don't mean open realy
[11:06] <heikki_> ok
[11:06] <ikonia> I mean exactly what i've said, is it set to auth before relay
[11:07] <qwd> I once had a bash script that would open all kinds of files from the terminal, just as if it had been opened from nautilus, with the  command "open". Does this sound familiar to anyone?
[11:07] <heikki_> then i don't understan your question
[11:08] <ikonia> is your mail server set to auth before relay
[11:08] <heikki_> how do i see if it is set to auth before relay
[11:08] <ikonia> you set it up
[11:08] <ikonia> you should know
[11:08] <ikonia> thats why I asked "did you set this up"
[11:08] <heikki_> yes, i set it up long time ago
[11:08] <ikonia> ok - so check your mail config
[11:08] <heikki_> :)
[11:09] <MonkeyDust> qwd  try xdg-open
[11:12] <heikki_> ikonia: so what should i check from the log file?
[11:12] <heikki_> i mean conf
[11:13] <heikki_> it has sasl auth
[11:13] <ikonia> if your server is set to auth before relay
[11:14] <heikki_> ikonia: my config file is in the postfix format, not in plain english
[11:15] <ikonia> postfix is plain english format file
[11:15] <heikki_> :D
[11:15] <heikki_> as i told, it requires auth before relay from hosts other than localhost
[11:15] <heikki_> you confuse me :)
[11:15] <qwd> MonkeyDust: Thanks!
[11:16] <maxvi> ashmew2: I set headphones volume to 100 and now sound works but after
[11:16] <maxvi> 	reload I need to the same again and again.
[11:16] <ikonia> heikki_: you did not tell me that
[11:16] <ikonia> you just asked if I meant an open relay
[11:16] <ikonia> heikki_: what is your postfix host authing the users/password against
[11:17] <heikki_> in mysql there is a database table of encrypted passwords
[11:18] <ikonia> heikki_: do those users have any access to the system or are they just email users
[11:18] <heikki_> just email users, no other access
[11:18] <ikonia> ok - so if they can't access the system it must be through some web app
[11:18] <heikki_> yes
[11:18] <ikonia> so look in the web root see references to the mail system
[11:19] <heikki_> there are thousands of that kind of references
[11:19] <ikonia> thousands ?
[11:19] <ikonia> how many web sites are on this server ?
[11:19] <heikki_> well, ok, hundreds
[11:20] <heikki_> depends on what you mean by a site. Lots of vhosts
[11:20] <ikonia> define lots
[11:20] <heikki_> :) Where do you need the exact number?
[11:21] <EriC^^> musclez: any progress?
[11:21] <musclez> nah it froze when i tried to run that isntall
[11:21] <ikonia> heikki_: you don't want to answer my questions, fine, good luck sorting it out
[11:21] <ikonia> sounds like you have no idea what is on your system or how it's setup, so you're at risk
[11:21] <heikki_> it is a trade secret
[11:21] <ikonia> then you should be able to manage a server,
[11:22] <heikki_> i know i am at risk, and that's why i am trying to learn something right now, and you seem very helpful...
[11:22] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, type mv /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride{.old,}
[11:22] <thenewone> Hi guys
[11:22] <thenewone> guys how to show the number of process are runing rightnow ?
[11:22] <ikonia> thenewone: ps -ef | wc -l
[11:22] <musclez> under chroot?
[11:22] <EriC^^> musclez: yeah
[11:22] <heikki_> ikonia: i am not the only one who has access to the server, and i am not the only one making web pages here, so that's the reason i cannot know everything
[11:23] <ikonia> heikki_: I'm not interested
[11:23] <jrtappers> Is there a way to get headphones detected in pulse "system mode"?
[11:23] <musclez> missing desination file
[11:23] <musclez> for mv
[11:23] <EriC^^> musclez: did you put the "," at the end before } ?
[11:24] <EriC^^> musclez: ah nevermind
[11:24] <musclez> rgr it workd that way i idnt see
[11:24] <EriC^^> musclez: ok, type mv /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride.old /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride
[11:24] <EriC^^> oh ok
[11:24] <EriC^^> right
[11:24] <heikki_> ikonia: do you run a server?
[11:24] <qwd> When I open something from the terminal with xdg-open or gvfs-open the terminal is not usable and I have to do ctrl+c to close the running program. How can I make it run in the background instead? Adding "&" at the end doesn't help.
[11:24] <thenewone> ikonia, thanks alot
[11:26] <thenewone> how to know the last users are connected to linux ?
[11:26] <jatt> last
[11:26] <thenewone> not the last just in last hour
[11:26] <ikonia> last and then look at the time stamp
[11:26] <jatt> man last
[11:26] <ikonia> you can see when thye logged in / out
[11:27] <musclez> eric^^ do i still end to mv or was that first input sufficient?
[11:27] <EriC^^> musclez: type ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride
[11:27] <EriC^^> is it there?
[11:27] <ikonia> would it not be quicker to backup/re-install/restore
[11:27] <ikonia> you'd have been done by now
[11:28] <thenewone> how list folder hwo start with p in any folder
[11:28] <musclez> yeah " root root ### may 1
[11:28] <musclez> somehtiung is there
[11:28] <ikonia> thenewone: I think you need to learn the basics of the shell
[11:28] <heikki_> seems like no'one cares to help
[11:28] <ikonia> thenewone: we are not going to help you with every linux command
[11:28] <thenewone> ikonia, i know ls
[11:29] <ikonia> thenewone: you need to know more than "ls"
[11:29] <bazhang> #ubuntu-server heikki_
[11:29] <EriC^^> thenewone: ls p*
[11:29] <heikki_> ok
[11:29] <ikonia> heikki_: people won't help as you don't share the info
[11:29] <thenewone> i know how use shell put list olders who start with p i never to to use it before
[11:29] <thenewone> thanks
[11:29] <EriC^^> thenewone: that will list all files though, not just dirs
[11:29] <ikonia> hence why I stopped
[11:29] <thenewone> but ls p* show files either
[11:29] <EriC^^> yes files and dirs
[11:29] <thenewone> i want folder
[11:29] <thenewone> only folder
[11:29] <ikonia> ls -d
[11:29] <qwd> Found the solution at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/264395/linux-equivalent-of-the-mac-os-x-open-command
[11:30] <ikonia> so again - please learn the basics
[11:30] <heikki_> ikonia: share the info? LOL! If i ask your bank account details because i am helping you to walk on a street, would you share the info?
[11:30] <EriC^^> thenewone: actually not
[11:30] <threesixes> ls -d yeah that's the one
[11:30] <EriC^^> thenewone: use ls -d p*
[11:30] <ikonia> heikki_: I didn't ask for your bank details
[11:30] <ikonia> I asked for the number of vhosts
[11:30] <bazhang> heikki_, chit chat elsewhere NOT here
[11:30] <threesixes> y u no teach em man?
[11:30] <thenewone> thanks guys
[11:30] <heikki_> you don't need the exact number of vhosts to fix email problems
[11:30] <heikki_> bazhang: ok sorry
[11:31] <ikonia> heikki_: I did - I was working out the best method of 3 options to get you the info, and the number of vhosts impacted my decision
[11:31] <JunkyFunkyKid> hello, i would like some help?
[11:31] <ikonia> JunkyFunkyKid: just state your problem, and if people can help, they will
[11:32] <heikki_> ok, i hate this channel and i hate everyone, bye.
[11:32] <JunkyFunkyKid> well, it seems i downloaded the free star craft version from archive.org, and i cannot start it.
[11:32] <JunkyFunkyKid> it says something about open gl libraries being missing.
[11:33] <MonkeyDust> what's starcraft? a game?
[11:33] <JunkyFunkyKid> yes.
[11:34] <bazhang> !find opencl
[11:37] <JunkyFunkyKid> oh yes, i cannot load any program from "files" i run zorin 7 and cannot even compile.
[11:37] <MonkeyDust> JunkyFunkyKid  zorin is not supported here
[11:37] <JunkyFunkyKid> so, even if i do download this package, it will not load.
[11:37] <JunkyFunkyKid> oh ok.
[11:38] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[11:40] <tokam> Is there a nice ilustrator software to create people images in a commic style
[11:40] <cfhowlett> tokam, inkscape or gimp
[11:41] <tokam> thanks
[11:41] <cfhowlett> to!
[11:47] <TheHackOps> Just a quick graphics question, I have an XFX R9 280x (AMD), I keep having weird display issues like holes appearing in places and fonts displaying almost like they're broken
[11:47] <baja> how do i know if my distribution is debian or not?
[11:47] <TheHackOps> Also I am having massive performance issues with graphics
[11:47] <TheHackOps> Anyone have any ideas?
[11:49] <ashleyis> baja: if lsb_release is installed 'lsb_release -d' will tell you
[11:50] <MonkeyDust> baja  cat /etc/issue
[11:50] <TheHackOps> I am able to play steam games fine if I launch steam with the following
[11:50] <TheHackOps> LD_PRELOAD='/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6' DIAPLAY=:0 steam
[11:50] <baja> hey guys is there a way i can log all commands i try on the terminal to a file for future reference

[11:51] <baja> im guessing it would be helpful in the future
[11:51] <TJ-> baja: Try "history"
[11:51] <GotKlass`> The world cares about football. After the worse thing but as watching on during on during. Most people are runna ma naes.
[11:52] <baja> where is history
[11:52] <cfhowlett> GotKlass`, this is the ubuntu support channel.  stay on topic or go elsewhere please.
[11:52] <TJ-> baja: it's a command to issue in the shell
[11:52] <baja> whats the command?
[11:52] <TJ-> baja: Try "history"
[11:52] <baja> ok
[11:53] <MonkeyDust> baja  type this:  history > history.list; less history.list
[11:53] <GotKlass`> It's a football.  It's a soccer game, it's a futball and rittered. Except when I cover moyer! Brucesht boyer royer moyer! Boyer!
[11:53] <GotKlass`> Stop lawyyer made.  It's a soccer game, so the Nebraska Cornhusk.  Husk, cornhusk. Husk, cornhuskers, so the worst sport events on during. Most people are runna ma naes.

[11:53] <GotKlass`> GotKlass, how do you get away with spamming the channel?
[11:53] <GotKlass`> GotKlass`: Well, I start out by doing it while the ops or channel operators aren't here.  it's so funny.  You can spam on freenode very quickly, compared with other IRC networks.  And the ops literally do nothing here
[11:53] <GotKlass`> The worst sport ever moyer coyer!
[11:53] <baja> its now working
[11:53] <cfhowlett> !ops | GotKlass`
[11:54] <baja> anyone has another command
[11:54] <baja> for checking history of terminal
[11:54] <MonkeyDust> baja  type this:  history > history.list; less history.list
[11:55] <baja> is that one command or two
[11:55] <baja> @monkey
[11:55] <MonkeyDust> baja  that's two commands, separated by ;
[11:55] <baja> wow magic
[11:55] <BluesKaj> baja, I keep a text file of important and the most used commands under various titles like burning or networking wifi etc
[11:55] <baja> @monkey thanks
[11:56] <baja> :)
[11:56] <MonkeyDust> I have a text file with 'snippets', useful commands
[11:56] <baja> BluesKaj how do i do that?
[11:56] <TJ-> baja: MonkeyDust The history is already in a file: ".bash_history"
[11:57] <baja> ok TJ
[11:57] <MonkeyDust> baja  what's TJ- says: more than one way to do it
[11:57] <baja> ok
[11:58] <BluesKaj> create a text file in your /home/user then add the commands to it
[11:58] <BluesKaj> and save it everytime you add or edit
[11:58] <baja> ok let me try ...
[11:58] <TJ-> baja: read all about how shell history works: "man bash" and then type "/^HISTORY" and press Enter to jump to the HISTORY section of the manual page
[11:59] <baja> dir
[12:00] <baja> how do i create file

[12:02] <Ben64> thanks, mysterious op
[12:02] <cfhowlett> Ben64, my /ignore list is getting a workout today
[12:03] <MonkeyDust> summer vacation... more bored teens online, i guess
[12:05] <musclez> tj- can i get more assistance if ur available... terminal crashe dwhen i tried to reinstall the kernel and then we got /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride and i have no idea what was going on
[12:08] <TJ-> musclez: I'm working at the mo, sorry. I'd suggest trying to get a memtest running from the live ISO... you may have to boot the USB in Legacy mode in order for memtest to work. You may need a dedicated memtest86+ bootable ISO if the Live ISO doesn't work.
[12:09] <BluesKaj> these trolls could at least learn some proper English :-)
[12:10] <cfhowlett> BluesKaj, , that was a weird accent.  I wanted to guess irish or scottish based on the spelling
[12:11] <BluesKaj> cfhowlett looked to me like he used a crappy translator
[12:13] <reddeath68> just had a total system freeze and sysrq didnt work(yes it is enabled fully)
[12:13] <reddeath68> any idea where to start looking for problems
[12:14] <MonkeyDust> !details | reddeath68
[12:15] <reddeath68> my system suddenyl frooze completely to the point even sysrq would not work, I have been having trouble with fglrx and gpu lockups as well
[12:16] <reddeath68> running ubuntu 14.04.2 fresh install and last memory test I ran (about a week ago) was all clear
[12:17] <reddeath68> any other details needed?
[12:18] <musclez> TJ- thanks a lot for the help i'm going to wait until i get more assistance. You guys left me in the middle of an install and then Eric was checking some file locations. now there are no kernels on the boot at all so i dont want to mess with it and make my self worse off.
[12:20] <bitnibble> Hi, I've just upgraded vivid (original install was in Dec'14) and I'm struggling to get a working desktop. I have no mouse, I've installed ubuntu-gnome-desktop, rebooted, I login and have a clock with the time from 10 minutes ago top right, a bar with the blue screensave image at the top and no keys do anything. How can I launch a simple xterm please?
[12:22] <MonkeyDust> bitnibble  if you have more than one pc in the same network, try ssh to the problem pc
[12:23] <bitnibble> I need a desktop running. This machine is hosting VLC listening on http but it needs a desktop due to dbus bullshit.
[12:24] <reddeath68> does anyone know where I can start looking for causes of gpu  lockup and a full system freeze
[12:24] <bitnibble> If you know how to invoke vlc in that mode without the desktop running I'll take it. But what should my expectations of gnome on vivid be? Surely I should be able to do SOMETHING?
[12:24] <Ben64> i think "cvlc" is the command line version
[12:27] <collins> is everyone using linux  here
[12:27] <baja> hey people how so i install u torrent
[12:27] <baja> do
[12:27] <MonkeyDust> !info utorrent
[12:28] <MonkeyDust> baja  try deluge
[12:28] <baja> ok
[12:28] <collins> okay??????
[12:28] <MonkeyDust> collins  this is the ubuntu support channel
[12:28] <cfhowlett> collins,  we use ubuntu.  what do you use?
[12:28] <bitnibble> cvlc still throws 5 errors (not warnings) including dbus. It's listening but vlc remote is not connecting. Maybe it's not a desktop issue but the desktop sure is useless
[12:29] <ashmew2> baja, just for the heads up, transmission seems to misbehave with most trackers I use. Deluge is pretty decent.
[12:29] <baja> ok im downloading deluge
[12:30] <ayejoike> deluge is awesome
[12:30] <ayejoike> deluge is the only torrent client that doesn't have a Yes/No spyware contract
[12:30] <ayejoike> like Azereus or uTorrent do
[12:31] <OerHeks> standard transmission does not have that either, ayejoike
[12:32] <reddeath68> trying to figure out total system freeze(sysrq would not work and it is enabled) ran a memory test last week which came back clean, running ubuntu 14.04.2 fresh install fglrx graphics running HD redeon 7660D
[12:32] <ayejoike> oh yeah forgot about btlaunchmany.py.  Why doesn't btlaunchmany.py work anymore?
[12:32] <ayejoike> I have to use deluge
[12:36] <ayejoike> is the a program like 3D Ripper for Linux
[12:36] <ayejoike> err ubuntu I guess
[12:36] <ayejoike> 3D Ripper 3D Rippe rwhere it rips DirectX 3D data from Windows program windows
[12:41] <studio_> hi
[12:41] <studio_> what new ubuntu server version is running on an "VIA C7 Eden"?
[12:42] <cfhowlett> !server | studio_
[12:43] <studio_> the problem is the kernel, therefore i asked. the VIA C7 Eden is an old x86 cpu
[12:44] <MonkeyDust> studio_  start from the beginning, what brings you here
[12:44] <OerHeks> 32 bit server, AFAIK
[12:44] <studio_> i am looking for na image to install on my old firewall
[12:44] <studio_> na=an
[12:45] <TJ-> studio_: I suspect you'd need an old 32-bit kernel that doesn't have PAE support built in, because I don't thnk the C7 has PAE support
[12:45] <studio_> TJ-, right
[12:45] <TJ-> studio_: I think Debian still has non-PAE builds
[12:45] <OerHeks> lubuntu too
[12:46] <studio_> the lates debian "mini.iso" isn't working :(
[12:47] <TJ-> studio_: maybe this will help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/9w
[12:48] <studio_> is the a "mini" non-pae image from xubuntu for servers?
