[17:16] <neildugan> on kernel.org here http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt?id=HEAD line 1570 it says that if /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth1/use_tempaddr == 2 then then ipv6 should use a temporary address.  So why does the ipv6 address have the MAC number encoded in it?
[17:17] <blinkblink> LightDM+ still not working! I removed lighrdm from the Ubuntu Software Center now when I have it installed back and do 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm && sudo apt-get update'
[17:17] <blinkblink> after rebooting the system goes into Unity not LightDM
[17:18] <neildugan> bumblefuzz, I don't know if you can reverse that, but you could do an install to a USB stick, boot of the USB stick, then wipe it when finished.
[17:18] <OerHeks> neildugan,
[17:18] <kernello>  /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER kernello vxwxdjainvlf
[17:19] <Pici> kernello: try again without the space in front.
[17:19] <kernello> haha
[17:19] <Pici> (its not a password)
[17:19] <kernello> Pici, yes, just corrected :)
[17:19] <neildugan> OerHeks, ?
[17:19] <OerHeks> really odd advise, wiping?
[17:19] <OerHeks> he can just boot in grub and load the previous kernel
[17:20] <amaury> hi guys!
[17:20] <Guest90474> Im having this issue:
[17:20] <Manos> hi guys
[17:20] <Guest90474> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[17:20] <pc9-logia> hola
[17:20] <nacc> neildugan: that seems like a better question for ##linux?
[17:20] <neildugan> nacc, ok
[17:20] <pbx> i've got two mutually symlinks that only reference each other, yet there is also a "real" file there. how might this be?  http://dpaste.com/046WTSA
[17:20] <vfw> Guest90474: Did you try 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' ?
[17:21] <Guest90474> yeah
[17:21] <pbx> (16.04 FWIW)
[17:21] <vfw> Guest90474: So did it do anything?
[17:21] <Guest90474> but I could not do anything with this...
[17:21] <nacc> pbx: /etc/mysql/my.cnf -> /etc/alternatives/my.cnf -> /etc/mysql/mysql.cnf
[17:21] <Manos> Someone that he know about ubuntu 16.04 network issues? I want to fix a problem
[17:21] <vfw> Guest90474: So what lead to this?  What caused it to give this output?
[17:22] <Guest90474> I dont know!
[17:22] <Guest90474> I realy wanted to know...
[17:23] <vfw> Guest90474: sudo apt-get -f install && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[17:23] <pbx> ha right nacc !  reading problem :)  thanks
[17:23] <Manos> vfw: thats my problem https://postimg.org/image/6qmcgo7ml/ and https://postimg.org/image/ekmy22ffh/
[17:24] <Guest90474>  Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[17:25] <vfw> Manos: https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/nautilus-connect.html
[17:26] <vfw> Manos: If you can discover the IP address of the MS Windows machine, it will help.  (Use the actual IP address, not the network name.)
[17:26] <Guest90474> for all of this
[17:26] <Guest90474>  Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[17:27] <Guest90474> I con not find out what is the metter....
[17:27] <nacc> Guest90474: it's better to provide (via pastebin) the full output
[17:27] <vfw> Manos: I should have said, use the IP address rather than the host name.
[17:28] <vfw> Manos: And read the information from the link I sent.  Should help.
[17:28] <pavlos> Mano ... are you running nmbd on your linux system?
[17:29] <Guest90474> ok
[17:29] <bumblefuzz> so, how do I upgrade to 16.10 from 16.04?
[17:29] <cscf> bumblefuzz, do-release-upgrade, I think
[17:30] <jSmP> hi
[17:30] <nacc> with a -d, but realize that 16.10 is not released
[17:30] <nacc> bumblefuzz: so you should have a good reason to do the upgrade early, and undersatnd it may be broken
[17:31] <vfw> !16.10 | bumblefuzz
[17:31] <pavlos> bumblefuzz, go to the 3rd tab of software and updates and select any new version at the very bottom. sudo apt-get upgrade should fetch the new release
[17:31] <OerHeks> impatient with skylake hardware, you will get notified when 16.10 is out
[17:31] <vfw> bumblefuzz: /join #ubuntu+1
[17:31] <Guest90474> look
[17:31] <Guest90474> http://pastebin.com/iCByNkJK
[17:31] <vfw> bumblefuzz: And ask there...
[17:32] <Guest90474> no idea about wtf is it!
[17:32] <OerHeks> Guest90474, line #5
[17:32] <OerHeks> Job for i8kmon.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status i8kmon.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
[17:32] <nacc> !info i8kutils xenial
[17:33] <OerHeks> those 2 command will give a lot of info
[17:34] <Guest90474> even worst to understand
[17:34] <Guest90474> http://pastebin.com/gZ2ef07N
[17:36] <OerHeks> Guest90474, are you on elementary?
[17:36] <Guest90474> yes
[17:36] <Guest90474> why?
[17:37] <OerHeks> Elementary has its own issues, nothing to do with ubuntu.
[17:37] <Guest90474> ow
[17:37] <Guest90474> it is an elementary issue?
[17:38] <OerHeks> elementary/e17/enlightment i guess, try their channel #elementary here on #freenode

[17:42] <j4ck_> hi
[17:43] <pingwindyktator> Hello. How can I find current RAM speed? Every command I found shows configured max available speed
[17:43] <OerHeks> dmidecode or lshw
[17:44] <OerHeks> sudo dmidecode --type memory
[17:44] <pingwindyktator> OerHeks: ypu, it shows 'Speed: 3289 MHz'
[17:44] <pingwindyktator> is it even possible to have such speed all time?
[17:45] <tsaavik> Is anyone able to get public urls from the 'dropbox puburl ~/Dropbox/Public/myfile.txt' command? Just stoped working for me :(
[17:46] <OerHeks> pingwindyktator, no clue howto watch ramspeed
[17:46] <OerHeks> is that really important?
[17:46] <pingwindyktator> it is
[17:47] <pingwindyktator> but thanks, I'll google more
[17:47] <OerHeks> i assume it does not change.
[17:47] <pier> !list
[17:47] <pingwindyktator> OerHeks: I dont understand. What does not change
[17:47] <pingwindyktator> ram speed?
[17:48] <OerHeks> yes.
[17:49] <pavlos> pingwindyktator, sudo dmidecode --type memory \ grep Speed
[17:50] <pavlos> make that pipe
[17:50] <pingwindyktator> I'm 'watch'ing this all time
[17:50] <pingwindyktator> without any change
[17:50] <OerHeks> what makes you think it can change?
[17:50] <pavlos> pingwindyktator, memory speed does NOT change
[17:51] <pingwindyktator> OerHeks: I dont know. Should it? Depending of usage, load, I dont know
[17:51] <pingwindyktator> huh
[17:51] <pingwindyktator> okay, thanks a lot pavlos
[17:51] <pavlos> pingwindyktator, cpu speed may change depending on load
[17:51] <OerHeks> as a long search does not give any tool to watch ramspeed live, i think it confirms my thought.
[17:52] <pingwindyktator> k, thanks!
[17:52] <tsaavik> Only way to change ram speed is via tweaking cmos settings, which you CAN do live with some utilities, it will never happen automatically.
[17:53] <OerHeks> tsaavik, doubt that statement.
[17:53] <usuario> oi
[17:53] <tsaavik> which part, the live?
[17:55] <OerHeks> sounds more like a windows tool that suggests higher memoryspeed ( with free toolbar and nagware)
[17:56] <tsaavik> Its a windows tool that comes with MBs like Asus, Gigabyte and others. And it does not suggest the speeds, it actually changes them on the fly.
[17:57] <hillary> I get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/23178933/ when i run update in ubuntu 16.04 lts. What could be the issue
[17:57] <nacc> hillary: why do you have a precise repository enabld on 16.04?
[17:57] <nacc> hillary: it's never advised to mix releases like that
[17:58] <hillary> nacc: Guide me how to solve please
[18:00] <nacc> hillary: i'm not sure how you go into that situation, and i've got some other stuff to work on right now, it's hard for me to help. hopefully someone else can
[18:01] <hillary> Thanks
[18:01] <bitlost> hey... new to linux and having a few problems with the installation from live usb, anyone free to help? Thanks in advance

[18:01] <Pici> er, mispaste... dunno how that happened.
[18:02] <tsaavik> hillary: grep precise /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:02] <tsaavik> hillary: if you see precise stuff in there that isn't commened out, edit the file and comment them out
[18:03] <bitlost> Hey, the installation seems to run fine until it asks me to reboot, then it freezes on shutdown, only way to get it off is to hold the power button (it's not doing anything - I left it overnight last time) and when I turn it on, it goes straight to the MOK management screen
[18:04] <bitlost> I've tried a few different distros and it always does the same thing
[18:05] <sarkis> hey all - we built a custom .deb for a newer ruby version and it installs the binary to /usr/bin/ruby vs doing the debian/ubuntu way of symlinking via update-alternatives... what would be the downside of this method?
[18:06] <sarkis> also - i see 1.9.1 (on ubuntu 14.04) is installed by default - should we maybe have a Replaces setup on our custom ruby package to avoid fumbling between multiple rubies?
[18:06] <tsaavik> bitlost: Are you making sure to say yes when it asks to install Grub?
[18:07] <curlyears> nickserv identify chilehead
[18:07] <bitlost> tsaavik i did, yeah
[18:08] <bitlost> I've also ran boot repair to try fixing it

[18:54] <Dinosaurio> I've commited a mistake and wrote data in libreoffice calc in wrong order. Data starts in 2016 and ends in 2002. Thus, the graphic looks a bit weird. Do you know any way to fix it? At least the graphic, so it would start on 2002 and would end in 2016
[18:56] <gummibears> does anyone know if the volume applet in unity can be used with other window managers or panels?
[18:57] <Jordan_U> Dinosaurio: https://www.maketecheasier.com/reverse-row-order-in-libreoffice-calc/
[18:58] <OerHeks> gummibears, it is desktop dependent. so no.
[18:58] <Dinosaurio> Jordan_U: Yeah but looks a bit messy since there're lots of graphics and rows. I was asking whether it was a easier way just change the graphic order http://i.imgur.com/OsC8EuY.png
[19:09] <metricstrat> Hello

[19:14] <MonkeyDust> metricstrat  start with a question
[19:15] <\9> !ask
[19:15] <metricstrat> is there a know issue with ubuntu 16_04 and UHD screens?
[19:16] <OerHeks> metricstrat, haven't you asked this before?
[19:16] <metricstrat> yes i never recieved a response, and am still curious
[19:16] <metricstrat> i worked around it, but still jsut wondering
[19:24] <Shawn186> howdy
[19:24] <yourname> yo
[19:24] <Shawn186> anyone know of a program I can use to fix overscan?
[19:25] <Shawn186> on a tv
[19:25] <wabbits> First thing to try is the settings on the tv
[19:25] <wabbits> I just did this on Monday.
[19:25] <Shawn186> no settings on the tv for that
[19:25] <wabbits> What kind of tv?
[19:26] <Shawn186> wabbits, if I did not check that first, I would not be here asking about this
[19:26] <Shawn186> the tv is an old sanyo
[19:26] <wabbits> Good luck with that.
[19:27] <Shawn186> ...
[19:27] <Shawn186> I know ubuntu at one time has had an overscan gui program
[19:27] <rexwin_> does ping listen to any tcp port
[19:27] <Shawn186> though I am using lubuntu
[19:27] <OerHeks> rexwin_, no, just port 80
[19:27] <wabbits> rexwin_ ping doesn't listen it pings. and it uses icmp.
[19:27] <Shawn186> that should not change anything though
[19:27] <rexwin_> apache listen there
[19:28] <OerHeks> err port 1 ?
[19:30] <wabbits> rexwin_ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Control_Message_Protocol
[19:31] <OerHeks> if your ping times out, it is not failure of the recieving port. just the target.
[19:31] <Jordan_U> Shawn186: Sometimes "Game Mode" or "Console Mode" on a TV disables overscan (and a lot of other silly "features").
[19:31] <Shawn186> Jordan_U, dont have any of those modern tvs
[19:32] <Shawn186> only an old flatscreen 720p tv
[19:36] <Shawn186> though I know that software controls a big portion of what it transmits to the tv via hdmi
[19:37] <LemonJuice> So what IRC client do you guys use?
[19:38] <Shawn186> whats telepathy?
[19:39] <Shawn186> ah, its a service
[19:39] <OerHeks> girls use irssi, LemonJuice
[19:39] <Shawn186> men use hexchat
[19:39] <Jordan_U> Shawn186: Are you using proprietary graphics drivers?
[19:40] <cantstanya> o
[19:40] <Shawn186> intel's open source drivers
[19:41] <LemonJuice> lol OerHeks appropriate, I am
[19:42] <Jordan_U> Shawn186: http://askubuntu.com/questions/508358/overscanning-picture-problem-using-hdmi-with-intel-graphics
[19:43] <Shawn186> already looked at that page, and tried that
[19:44] <rexwin_> i can't ping my server through icmp
[19:44] <Shawn186> underscan option of xrandr only ends in a multitude of errors
[19:44] <Shawn186> been looking for a gui of xrandr that would support overscan, none exist
[19:46] <arch-everywhere> hi guys, got two probs with ubuntu.. skype doesn't login and chrome doesn't sync my bookmarks? any suggestions?
[19:47] <Malinux> I have a strange issue with a new ubuntu 16.04.1 install. The computer is a Lenovo G70-30. When I start an application from the launcher, some times nothing happens, and then of a sudden, it starts to work again. Same happens with exiting applications with the x button. alt + f4 works. And some times the global menus is not shown even when the mouse is hovering. I guess this might be some graphical issues? I
[19:47] <Malinux> have blacklisted nouveau, and the behavoir some way became better, but not complitely gone. I am not sure what log could be one with relevant info about this, but maybe the Xorg.log?
[19:47] <arch-everywhere> anyone?
[19:50] <vfw> arch-everywhere: Use firefox instead of chrome.
[19:50] <arch-everywhere> f sake
[19:50] <vfw> f sake?
[19:51] <vfw> arch-everywhere: And talk to MS about skype.
[19:52] <vfw> Hate to be rude, but chrome and skype problems are not ubuntu issues.
[19:52] <Chris4> Hey room. Thanks for helping a noob. I've got FF and Chromium both installed on 16.04. Can I have 2 versions of Flashplayer installed to handle both browsers? FF is, of course, only supported to FP 11ish etc...
[19:52] <bladeplate> hi
[19:52] <vfw> Chris4: What is FP 11ish?
[19:53] <bladeplate> does ubuntu support gma500?
[19:53] <Chris4> Flashplayer 11.whatever
[19:53] <Jordan_U> vfw: Please try to be helpful when helping. I am sure arch-everywhere was aware of Firefox as an alternative.
[19:53] <vfw> Chris4: Ok.... Well Flahsplayer is kind of on it's way out.
[19:54] <vfw> Jordan_U: I am being helpful.  And; How do you  know what he knows?
[19:54] <Chris4> vfw: thanks. Can I have 2 versions installed to handle both browsers?
[19:55] <Jordan_U> Chris4: sudo apt install browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash
[19:55] <vfw> Jordan_U: Chrome is not really open sorce software.  Skype is not for sure, so what does it have to do with Ubuntu?
[19:55] <Jordan_U> Chris4: That will allow you to use the latest flash in Firefox. But unless you know you need flash for something I would recommend seeing if you can just go without it (most people can).
[19:56] <vfw> Chris4: Chrome has it's own player, and it is not flash player. The 11ish flashplayer is available for Firefox and works for most sites that still use flashplayer.  We can not do anything about fhashplayer, what you get from adobe is what you get....
[19:56] <Bashing-om> bladeplate: Maybe. old but maybe of some use: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1984236 <- support thread for the GMA500 ( bodhi.zazen )(developer:thopiekar) .
[19:57] <Chris4> Jordan_U: Thanks. What are other browser options besides flashplayer to see video content?
[19:57] <Jordan_U> vfw: Suggesting that users find a different channel for support would be helpful. Suggesting that they switch browsers is not. I think that it's pretty clear that someone asking for support on the #ubuntu IRC channel is aware that Firefox is another web browser that they can use.
[19:57] <vfw> Jordan_U: Our job is to exchange information.
[19:58] <Chris4> vfw: 32 bit here :/ no chrome
[19:58] <vfw> Chris4: You are correct.
[19:58] <Jordan_U> Chris4: HTML5 has a video tag which allows the browser to play videos natively, without any third party plugins.
[19:58] <Chris4> ahhhhhh that's cool
[19:59] <Chris4> sudo apt-get purge adobe
[19:59] <Chris4> :)
[19:59] <Chris4> vfw, Jordan_U: Thanks, folks!
[20:00] <vfw> Jordan_U: Suggesting that they use Open Source software is something we can all agree on.  Right?
[20:00] <vfw> Chris4: NP
[20:00] <vfw> Jordan_U: Or am I wrong?
[20:00] <Bray90820> Bashing-om: Turnes out the Live USB was good all along it through back the error because of the missing file

[20:01] <bipul> I just need a help with mounting http://paste.ubuntu.net/23179357/
[20:01] <vfw> So I've been wrong all these years? Wow!  I actually thougth that Linux was all about Open Source Software.
[20:02] <Bashing-om> Bray90820: Good you know . I can accept that the missong file would produce an error . Have you tried the lubuntu release with force-pae to see if it boots ?
[20:03] <tgm4883> vfw: while many users do use Linux because it's open source, and many of us our open source advocates, Linux and closed source are not mutually exclusive. None of this is on topic though
[20:04] <Bray90820> I have not done that yet
[20:04] <Bray90820> I am kinda busy right now tho
[20:04] <Bray90820> Bashing-om:

[20:07] <sfdebug> hi, if i have a .deb package installed with a version, and i have another .deb package with updated version, how can i update that?
[20:07] <Chris4> Jordan_U: I'm still interested to know how my 2 browsers would handle 1 version of flashplayer. Or can you have 2 versions installed?
[20:08] <Chris4> derrrrr
[20:09] <Chris4> Anyone know? I've got Firefox and Chromium installed... wondering how their different supported versions of Flashplayer would work...
[20:13] <Shawn186> ubuntu lacks good overscan and irda support
[20:13] <nicomachus> Shawn186: that's untrue.
[20:13] <Shawn186> or easy rather
[20:13] <nicomachus> xrandr does a fine job. and most graphics cards have built-in tools that allow for overscan adjustment.
[20:15] <OerHeks> Shawn186, don blame your old tv :-D
[20:15] <Shawn186> I'm not, because I know software controls the majority of what it broadcasts

[20:16] <nicomachus> Shawn186: Overscan can be adjusted on most TVs, but if it can't then xrandr will do the job just fine.
[20:17] <Shawn186> yea, but I need a graphical utility
[20:17] <OerHeks> both,  ctrl alt F2, you get a TTY and login ( and back to gui with ctrl alt F7)

[20:18] <nicomachus> Shawn186: do you need HDMI? VGA will usually do a better job of scaling.
[20:19] <both> OerHeks: ctrl alt F1, F2... F6 = black screen. F7 = back to login prompt.
[20:19] <Shawn186> I need hdmi, it looks so much better than VGA analog
[20:19] <mlhess> Anyone know how to skip rows in pam if authenticating via public_key
[20:20] <OerHeks> ctrl alt f2 .. and wait maybe a second or 2, login should appear
[20:20] <Bashing-om> both: At the grub boot menu => advanced options -> recovery kernel . what results when booting a recovery console ?
[20:21] <both> Bashing-om: no grub access. Short problem description: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23179397/
[20:22] <wabbits> rexwin_ is your server behind a firewall?
[20:22] <rexwin_> yes
[20:22] <wabbits> well that is likely the problem?
[20:22] <fatemeh> leave #ubuntu
[20:22] <rexwin_> i guess i ran scp after that the ping died
[20:23] <wabbits> rexwin_ I not following you.
[20:23] <both> OerHeks: Login always appears, tty doesn't appear even after several minutes (common problem, can't find solution).
[20:24] <Bashing-om> both: If you can not get a grub menu, you have serious problems . more so that just graphics . for legacy system - reboot and as soon as the bios screen clears depress and hold a shit key -> grub boot menu . For EFI system spam the escape key .
[20:32] <Bashing-om> both: Ouch make that the shift key . If you press that other key, we all have problems .
[20:45] <Manos5723> hello guys
[20:47] <Manos5723> i cant ping my rooter .. how to do this?
[20:47] <MonkeyDust> Manos5723  cable or wifi?
[20:48] <k1l> Manos5723: ping routerip
[20:48] <Bray90820> Bashing-om: I was thinking RemixOS boots fine so maybe I could look at the grub entries for that?
[20:49] <NoPinky> hello
[20:49] <NoPinky> anyone here tried Windows Subsystem for Linux on Windows 10 yet?
[20:51] <MonkeyDust> NoPinky  that's for #ubuntu-offtopic or so
[20:51] <k1l> !ubuwin | NoPinky
[20:51] <NoPinky> thanks
[20:52] <de-facto> now ms released powershell under MIT for linux, there are even ubuntu packages :P
[20:52] <dax> can i set my logon shell to it
[20:52] <de-facto> lol...
[20:52] <dax> because if so i'm about to unleash the best prank on my coworkers ever
[20:54] <de-facto> i doubt it would be supported here though: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell
[20:56] <dax> yeah, i just found the .deb there and am trying it
[20:57] <dax> aww, chsh doesn't like it
[20:57] <akik> dax: add it to /etc/shells ?
[21:03] <sledge> hello folks
[21:04] <dax> akik: worked, thanks
[21:05] <akik> dax: heh that was just a guess. i'm feeling for you
[21:05] <LemonJuice_> Hello
[21:09] <deserteagle> does anybody by chance know a way overclock an integrated gpu ( intel HD 5500 ) on gnome? or squeeze just a little more performance out of it in some way?
[21:10] <nicomachus> deserteagle: you can use a lighter DE like MATE.
[21:13] <elspru> how do I geta  script to run after networking starts?
[21:13] <Jordan_U> elspru: What is your definition of "after networking starts"?
[21:14] <elspru> well I need to ssh into a localhost, so after the ethernet connects I want it to try to do so
[21:14] <elspru> er ssh into a remote host *
[21:14] <elspru> though ideally it would be once it knows it is connected tot he internet..
[21:14] <MonkeyDust> elspru  you have to add a line in .profile
[21:14] <Jordan_U> elspru: Is the ethernet connection managed by network manager or ifupdown?
[21:15] <elspru> managed by /etc/init.d/networking I presume
[21:15] <elspru> MonkeyDust: what line?
[21:15] <Jordan_U> elspru: Is it configured in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[21:16] <elspru> Jordan_U: looks like it
[21:16] <Jordan_U> MonkeyDust: elspru: .profile would only make sense if you want it to run when a particular user logs in.
[21:17] <elspru> yea, I need it whenever the ethernet restarts, since this will be a remote machine.
[21:17] <MonkeyDust> elspru  i forget what it was, but i used to use it for the same reason as yours
[21:17] <Jordan_U> elspru: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/91245/execute-custom-script-when-an-interface-gets-connected
[21:18] <elspru> Jordan_U: awesome thanks :-D
[21:19] <MonkeyDust> Jordan_U  +1 ... looks more elegant than what i suggested
[21:19] <Jordan_U> elspru: You're welcome.
[21:21] <angrycoast> exit
[21:59] <wad> I've got a Ubuntu Server (16.04) that I need to tweak the DNS settings on. It has no GUI. If I had a GUI, I know exactly how to set it up... but these new Ubuntu machines don't use resolv.conf anymore. What file do I edit?
[21:59] <wad> I need it to use DHCPfor IP address assignment, but not for DNS, I need to specify those manually.
[22:00] <wad> If I had a GUI, I'd just right-click on the network icon, choose ipv4, and choose the right item from the dropdown menu.
[22:01] <wad> Then specify my custom DNS.
[22:02] <tsaavik> wad edit /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf
[22:03] <tsaavik> supersede domain-name-servers <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:03] <wad> Ah! Thanks
[22:04] <tsaavik> yw :)
[22:04] <wad> So I've got one VM where I've done this via GUI, and I'm looking in that file. But my DNS changes aren't there.
[22:04] <wad> Where might these be saved?
[22:05] <wad> Nothing in /etc/default
[22:05] <wad> Nothing in /etc/network
[22:06] <nubcake> hi, my ubuntu 16.04 hangs at sudo dpkg --configure -a
[22:06] <nubcake> snapd (2.14.2~16.04) wird eingerichtet ... (is being prepared/configured... or similar)  i left it running yesterday when i tried apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, hung for ~12 hours, came back home hit ctrl+c and did the dpkg --configure -a, keeps locking up..  any ideas/advice ?
[22:07] <jim> wad, no files in /etc/network? what are you using right now to irc here?
[22:08] <wad> There are files there, just none of them have the information I put into the network settings via the GUI (the DNS IP addresses).
[22:08] <wad> And I'm not using that VM right now. :)
[22:08] <wad> I've got it open on a different machine, even.
[22:08] <jim> so you're networking from a different machine/vm
[22:09] <wad> Yeah.
[22:09] <jim> what is it you want to know or do?
[22:09] <glitchd> hello everyone=)
[22:09] <jim> hi
[22:09] <wad> I've got two VMs, one of them has a GUI, and the networking is working properly. It uses DHCP to get an IP address, but overrides the DNS. The other one has no GUI, but I need to set up the network the same.
[22:09] <nubcake> hi
[22:10] <wad> I haven't been able to figure out what files to edit to set the DNS.
[22:10] <wad> I can noodle around on the first VM, and looks at all the files....
[22:10] <wad> I'm sure these settings are saved in a little config file somewhere on the disk. :)
[22:10] <wad> I just need to find it.
[22:10] <jim> wad, what is running the dhcp server? your isp? a router you have?
[22:11] <wad> The DHCP server is out of my control, it's provided.
[22:12] <wad> I can just trust that it's there, handing me IP an IP address from the pool. I just need to supply my own DNS, though, I can't use the one provided via DHCP.
[22:12] <jim> ok, so it's a fair chance (unless you made other arrangements with the provider) you can only get one IP from them...
[22:12] <glitchd> wad, maybe check the resolv.conf?
[22:12] <jim> from what pool?
[22:12] <wad> I can have all the IPs I need. :)
[22:12] <wad> That's not a problem.
[22:13] <jim> and pull them from the same dhcp server as the one that is now working?
[22:14] <jim> wad, on the machine whose networking is not up yet, can you ping localhost?
[22:15] <jim> if no, can you ping <IP_ADDRESS>?
[22:15] <wad> The machine I'm setting up, the networking is defualt.
[22:15] <wad> It just gets everything (including DNS) from DHCP.
[22:15] <wad> I just need to override the DNS bit. :)
[22:15] <wad> And it's working just fine.
[22:15] <jim> doesn't mean much, I have no idea what your defaults are
[22:16] <glitchd> wad, does that machine have a gui?
[22:16] <wad> The networking for the machine I'm setting up: DHCP client to get an IP address and DNS. It does not have a GUI.
[22:16] <wad> (If I had a GUI, I'd right-click the network thingy, and could set it up just fine.)
[22:16] <jim> does ping localhost fail on either machine?
[22:17] <wad> Pinging localhost is fine.
[22:17] <wad> Works on both.
[22:17] <glitchd> wad, and setting a different dns is what your trying to accomplish?
[22:17] <wad> Correct.
[22:17] <wad> I need DHCP to give me just an IP, and I'll provide my own DNS, not use the ones from DNS.
[22:17] <jim> ok, next test,  can you ping yahoo.com? does this fail on either machine?
[22:17] <wad> This works on both.
[22:18] <jim> ok, so then, your networking is up on both machines
[22:18] <wad> That means that the custom DNS on is  in the hierarchy that includes yahoo. :)
[22:18] <wad> Correct.
[22:18] <wad> The one without a GUI is using the wrong DNS, though. I need to use a custom one, that will redirect certain specific lookups to a custom set of IP addresses.
[22:18] <jim> if you want, you can install your own dns (sudo apt-get install bind0)
[22:19] <jim> err bind9
[22:19] <glitchd> wad, if you edit the resolv.conf you can set a custom dns server for the connection
[22:19] <glitchd> wad, i believe thats what u want
[22:19] <wad> So the first machine (the one with the GUI), that I set up via the GUI, doesn't have the custom DNS saved in /etc/resolv.conf.
[22:19] <wad> It's got to be somewhere else on the filesystem, right?
[22:19] <jim> by default it will start, and act as a caching-only dns, and can be reached at <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:20] <wad> When I make changes, via the GUI, to the ipv4 settings, where are they saved?
[22:20] <wad> I've looked in lots of places.
[22:20] <wad> The Network Manager is doing some magic....
[22:20] <wad> Maybe it's gone the way of Windows, and uses a binary database to store config data?
[22:21] <wad> *sigh*
[22:21] <wad> It used to be that I could just edit little text files to configure my machines.
[22:21] <wad> Now I'm on a headless machine, and I'm stuck. :(
[22:22] <geirha> You can use /etc/network/interfaces
[22:23] <wad> I FOUND IT!
[22:23] <wad> /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Wired\ connection\ 1
[22:23] <glitchd> wad, so where/what was it then?
[22:24] <wad> It's here: etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Wired\ connection\
[22:24] <wad> It's here: etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Wired\ connection\ 1
[22:24] <wad> There's a block in here that has : ignore-auto-dns=true
[22:24] <wad> And it has my custom DNS in it. :)
[22:24] <wad> I can use this.
[22:25] <glitchd> nice find
[22:26] <sdexter> Quick question, how do I block traffic TO an ip address with ufw
[22:27] <sdexter> Is it  ufw deny from any to <IP>
[22:35] <TigerBlood> Hey. Is restricted ubuntu restricted extras the thing that is asks you if you want to install when you first run the Ubuntu Installer?
[22:36] <TigerBlood> See. I didnt install it when I first installed Ubuntu, thinking about installing it now.
[22:36] <TigerBlood> to make things work
[22:37] <Seaworth> Heym ive just installed ubuntu on my desktop but bootloader gave error and i could't select another hdd to install it on so i had to reboot. how would i install grbu on usb with the installed ubuntu ?
[22:41] <glitchd> TigerBlood, you can install restricted extras whenever you want
[22:41] <dax> TigerBlood: yes
[22:42] <TigerBlood> Strange it doesn't come up in Software Center now tho
[22:42] <Bashing-om> TigerBlood: ' ubuntu-restricted-extras '
[22:42] <TigerBlood> thanks om
[22:43] <TigerBlood> I suppose i wont need to install PPAs then..?
[22:44] <glitchd> TigerBlood, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:44] <k1l> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:45] <glitchd> TigerBlood, also in "Sofware&Updates, on the ubuntu software tab make sure that software restricted by copyright or legal issues(multiverse) is checked
[22:46] <glitchd> TigerBlood, after you check that box, run this command in terminal sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:46] <TigerBlood> maybe they removed it from Software Center for legal reasons
[22:47] <k1l> TigerBlood: "sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras"
[22:47] <glitchd> TigerBlood, you probably dont have that box check in software&updates
[22:48] <glitchd> TigerBlood, software center shows it when i search for it
[22:48] <TigerBlood> glitchd: Weird. btw i do have it checked.
[22:48] <glitchd> TigerBlood, so again, you probably dont have that specific box checked in softwar&updates
[22:49] <glitchd> TigerBlood, hmm..
[22:49] <glitchd> have you run sudo apt-get update since checking that box?
[22:49] <TigerBlood> glitchd: ye. maybe because you have it installed?
[22:50] <k1l> TigerBlood: what is the output of "lsb_release -sd" in terminal?
[22:50] <TigerBlood> kil: 16.04.1
[22:50] <TigerBlood> still. ill install it with apt-get
[22:50] <TigerBlood> no problems really.
[22:52] <glitchd> TigerBlood, http://u51i.imgup.net/Untitled6bc4.jpg
[22:53] <glitchd> TigerBlood, it does show in software center
[22:53] <glitchd> TigerBlood, and it doesnt even show that i have it installed, even tho i do
[22:58] <TigerBlood> do i need Canonical Partners selected in "Other software" - in Software and updates
[22:59] <TigerBlood> its not selected by default
[23:00] <glitchd> TigerBlood, not sure if it specifically needs to be checked, but no harm in checking it
[23:00] <glitchd> TigerBlood, do that then update then try to install restricted extras again
[23:00] <TigerBlood> btw, im running Ubuntu Gnome, does that make a difference ?
[23:02] <glitchd> TigerBlood, nope
[23:04] <TigerBlood> if i install something via command line, can i remove it via software center?
[23:04] <TigerBlood> like, click and remove
[23:05] <catbadger> @TigerBlood yes
[23:05] <nacc> TigerBlood: sure
[23:06] <GonnaRegretThis> In an apt config file, you can specify something like this -  "Acquire::https::proxy::repo.domain.tld DIRECT" to bypass a proxy. How can I do this for wildcards or subnets?
[23:07] <nacc> GonnaRegretThis: do not believe that is supported
[23:17] <foul_owl> Anyone know how to tell column to keep the delimiters?
[23:18] <foul_owl> Using | for my delimiter currently
[23:20] <tim26> h
[23:20] <vlt> foul_owl: What are you doing?
[23:20] <tim26> who?
[23:23] <GonnaRegretThis> foul_owl: You can specify the output delimiter, can't you?
[23:24] <tim26> what?
[23:25] <GonnaRegretThis> foul_owl: I lied and misread the man page, doesn't look like it's supported. I guess you could | sed 's/\t/|/'  :S
[23:33] <hdon_> hi all :) is fglrx in xenial?
[23:34] <k1l> hdon_: no. amd stopped making it. they now make "amd_gpu" for modern cards. for the rest there is radeon
[23:34] <GonnaRegretThis> holy crap it's been years since I've seen fglrx even mentioned
[23:34] <hdon_> k1l, oh :(
[23:34] <hdon_> what drivers do you guys recommend for R7?
[23:34] <GonnaRegretThis> I remember those drivers being an absolutely horrible nightmare to deal with
[23:35] <k1l> hdon_: well, ubuntu will load radeon driver as standard. and if the card is supported it will load amd_gpu, since both are in the kernel now.
[23:35] <joker__> ?
[23:35] <hdon_> k1l, i just took my hdd out of one machine and put it into this one with the R7 card. lsmod|grep radeon#no output
[23:36] <hdon_> maybe i need to, idk, install it
[23:36] <k1l> hdon_: lspci --nnk
[23:36] <k1l> put that into a paste.ubuntu.com
[23:36] <hdon_> http://ix.io/1mYt k1l
[23:37] <hdon_> uhhhh
[23:37] <k1l> that is using a nvidia card
[23:37] <hdon_> maybe the R7 was in another machine
[23:37] <hdon_> :3
[23:37] <hdon_> no "nv" or "nvidia" module loaded either
[23:37] <k1l> Kernel driver in use: nouveau
[23:38] <hdon_> ok well that's loaded
[23:38] <k1l> that is the linux kernel open source driver.
[23:38] <hdon_> but my video performance is complete crap
[23:38] <hdon_> :C
[23:38] <k1l> if you want the nvidia driver look at systemsettings -> software and updates -> last tab
[23:39] <hdon_> thanks k1l i'm checking it out..
[23:39] <hdon_> any drivers i should avoid? is 361.42 alright?
[23:40] <hdon_> hmm
[23:40] <k1l> worth a try
[23:41] <hdon_> http://codebad.com/~hdon/Screenshot%20from%202016-09-14%2016-40-23.png
[23:41] <hdon_> any idea about this "Unknown: unknown" bit?
[23:42] <k1l> its the cpu. you can install that microcode too.
[23:42] <arooni> anyone here use fzf?  can i get a ppa for it?
[23:42] <arooni> anyone here use fzf?  can i get a ppa for it?
[23:42] <arooni> oops; sorry for the repeat
[23:43] <mrmystery> How to activate ap on broadcom bcm4313?
[23:43] <joker__> how do i add ppa for metasploit
[23:43] <k1l> !ppa | joker__
[23:44] <Bashing-om> !bcm | mrmystery
[23:46] <Reliant> I'm in the middle of doing a do-release-upgrade when php5-fpm hung trying to close. I'm trying to do "apt-get install -f" to resume, but it always gets stuck trying to shut down php5-fpm before resuming
[23:46] <mrmystery> ubottu : Thanks
[23:46] <hdon_> thanks k1l. if i don't come back, the drivers didn't work :3
[23:46]  * k1l crosses fingers
[23:46] <mrmystery> Bashing-om : Thanks
[23:47] <k1l> Reliant: can you show the full output in paste.ubuntu.com ?
[23:47] <Reliant> full output of what?
[23:47] <Reliant> it just hangs silently
[23:47] <k1l> Reliant: of the errors
[23:48] <hdon_> k1l, if i don't have a gui after reboot -- what exactly is this "Software & Updates" GUI doing? should i look in an apt log somewhere to see which packages it's installing?
[23:49] <Reliant> is there a way to do a "kill" on the process that will make dpkg think it finished correctly?
[23:49] <k1l> hdon_: its a front end for installing packages, yes.
[23:49] <hdon_> Reliant, you could attach gdb and exit(0)
[23:49] <hdon_> Reliant, :3
[23:50] <hdon_> Reliant, have you tried just shutting down php5-fpm manually? is it running? if not, remove its pid file.
[23:50] <k1l> hdon_: amd64-microcode is that amd package and nvidia-??? where ??? is the version number is the nvidia driver
[23:50] <hdon_> thanks k1l
[23:51] <Reliant> I tried manually, that hangs too
[23:51] <Reliant> where's the pid file located for processes begun with service?
[23:52] <hdon_> Reliant, check the init script / systemd script
[23:53] <Reliant> removing the pid file, it still hangs
[23:55] <backbox> Hey
[23:55] <backbox> gus
[23:55] <backbox> is someone here ?
