[00:00] <oss[mob]> Yes, I had issues installing fglrx on 14.04.2 and upgraded to 14.10 to fix it
[00:00] <oss[mob]> It worked for a couple of days and suddenly stopped
[00:00] <oss[mob]> OerHeks: no idea
[00:01] <derrezed> thanks papibe, thanks to ya all
[00:03] <OerHeks> dtscode, what is the problem ? that guide gives 2 ppa's, one is for trusty  only
[00:03] <dtscode> ?
[00:04] <snizzo> hey, my wifi doesn't work anymore
[00:04] <snizzo> actually it works sometimes, it says wireless device can't be opened or something like that
[00:04] <snizzo> sometimes it just works
[00:04] <oss[mob]> Do I reinstall or is there a fix?
[00:04] <snizzo> anyone knows some command to get info to trobleshoot this?
[00:06] <oss[mob]> ...
[00:08] <oss[mob]> This is so annoying
[00:09] <oss[mob]> I'd like some advice?
[00:10] <thms> I just apt-get --purge nginx to start over and removed etc/nginx
[00:10] <daftykins> oss[mob]: backup and clean is always good, since all those replies seem to speak of upgrades, which is not a word in my vocabulary :)
[00:11] <thms> problem s when I reinstall I don't get the origian lconfig files
[00:11] <thms> How can I solve this ?
[00:11] <daftykins> thms: are your modified ones still in place?
[00:11] <oss[mob]> daftykins: I don't think anything on there is that valuable, but how do I fix it?
[00:11] <thms> daftykins: there are none anymore.
[00:12] <thms> I modified, fucked up my config, so wanted to start clean.
[00:12] <thms> So I apt-get --purge nginx and removed the /etc/nginx/* folder
[00:12] <oss[mob]> daftykins: uninstall and reinstall?
[00:13] <oss[mob]> ... K
[00:14] <sveinse> I have installed 14.10 server and I have this USB3 SATA adapter. I don't get anything (in the kernel log) when connecting it. It did work on 14.04. What service or driver might I be missing?
[00:14] <daftykins> oss[mob]: well you can't uninstall an OS.
[00:14] <daftykins> wipe + start fresh
[00:14] <oss[mob]> Right
[00:15] <oss[mob]> This time I'll install 14.10
[00:19] <Guest7144> quit
[00:22] <oss[mob]> What do I do if the same issue occurs
[00:23] <Overlordz> hi I'm trying to get midis working on my system (so I can ultimately use them in wine), if I run 'timidity file.mid' it sounds great but if I run timidity as a server and then run 'aplaymidi -p128:0 file.mid' I get a bunch of noise.
[00:23] <daftykins> oss[mob]: cross that bridge when you come to it
[00:27] <Dan123_> Need help installing/configuring kernel-source. Much appreciated if help is given, getting frustrated http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2270054&p=13248907#post13248907
[00:27] <oss[mob]> daftykins: any idea of the cause? Is it because of the upgrade or radeon graphics card?
[00:28] <daftykins> i'm not the right person for that, but if someone knew it'd be marked as 'fixed, patch released' :)
[00:28] <oss[mob]> I guess
[00:29] <oss[mob]> I think that error message is a very broad one, not specific to drivers or version
[00:29] <daftykins> well, probably
[00:29] <daftykins> yeah too late here for me to read in any detail, i don't even use desktop so
[00:29] <oss[mob]> Right
[00:29] <Dan123_> Help installing/configuring kernel/kernel source code for driver module building?
[00:30] <oss[mob]> Just hope it doesn't re occur

[00:31] <oss[mob]> No need to re enter all my servers and passwords
[00:32] <Dan123_> Help anyone?
[00:32] <oss[mob]> Dan123_: be specific

[00:33] <Dan123_> I dont have my kernel configured properly to build the modules to complete driver installation, but unsure how to properly configure or install
[00:34] <Dan123_> Been trying to get these drivers to install for the latter part of 8-10 days
[00:35] <daftykins> what kind of modem is it?
[00:35] <Dan123_> conexant usb modem
[00:35] <Danny_D> howdy. unfortunately im unable to mount the internal storage of aquaris 4.5 via libmtp, running version 1.1.8
[00:36] <Dan123_> linuxant drivers havent been supported or maintained so getting them to work on a 7 generation new distro is finicky
[00:36] <yeowza> how do I load the usb.h module?  I tried sudo modprobe usb but it says it cannot find it?
[00:36] <Dan123_> I feel like the kernel configuration is kinda newbie though
[00:38] <Dan123_> oss[mob]: Any ideas?
[00:38] <Blue1> yeowza: I think it's sudo modprobe usb-storage
[00:39] <daftykins> Dan123_: no, what type as in 56k dialup, mobile broadband (cellular/telephony network) ?
[00:39] <Blue1> yeowza: that should normally be loaded by default
[00:39] <Dan123_> 56k, V.92
[00:39] <Dan123_> How do i do the ping pm thing? Dont use IRC regularly.
[00:40] <yeowza> Blue1: hmm, does this load the usb.h?  I am writing a module but it says it cannot find symbols that are in usb.h
[00:40] <Blue1> oh you I didn't know you were writing your own - probably need the -dev files --
[00:40] <daftykins> Dan123_: i'm shocked you still want to use one in this day and age
[00:40] <Dan123_> Its for a dial in server
[00:41] <Blue1> yeowza: /usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-46-generic/include/linux/usb.h
[00:41] <Dan123_> Dialing in sega dreamcast to route via broadband
[00:41] <Dan123_> Setting up the ppp networking though is nothing compared to how frustrating installing these drivers have been.
[00:42] <Dan123_> Command for ping pm?
[00:42] <joel> :)
[00:42] <daftykins> i don't have a clue what you mean by "ping PM" ?
[00:42] <Blue1> Dan123_: maybe if you told us what pm was we could help
[00:42] <yeowza> Blue1: Hmm, so I should make my module from the 3.13.0-46 source tree then?  I'll try that out
[00:42] <Guest64816> español help me
[00:42] <daftykins> private message likely.
[00:42] <daftykins> !es | Guest64816
[00:42] <Dan123_> private message?
[00:42] <Blue1> yeowza: well that's where the header file is
[00:43] <daftykins> Dan123_: don't ask us what we mean, tell us what YOU Mean
[00:43] <Guest64816> thanks
[00:43] <yeowza> Blue1: I'm currently making it from the 3.16.0-31 source tree since that is the ubuntu kernel I'm using
[00:43] <Blue1> Dan123_: try /ping nickgoeshere
[00:44] <Dan123_> I mean how do i send message to certain people like you are for me and can you help me build these modules to continue on to ppp server?
[00:44] <daftykins> well first off, don't private message us.
[00:44] <Blue1> yeowza: as long as the header files are there for that version you should be okay.
[00:44] <daftykins> !pm
[00:44] <daftykins> so that takes care of that one.
[00:45] <Dan123_> Can anyone help me install/configure kernel-source so i can build the conexant dgcmodem driver modules?
[00:46] <Dan123_> Thread is here explaining further http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2270054&p=13248907#post13248907
[00:46] <Blue1> !irc | Dan123_
[00:46] <yeowza> Blue1:  Would you mind taking a look?  http://pastebin.com/b4uXfkcj When I try to insmod this it fails saying unknown symbols and when I look in dmesg it says it cannot find symbol "usb_register_device" which is in usb.h
[00:48] <Dan123_> Anyone? Pretty frustrated and leaving soon as i am spamming chat now..
[00:49] <Blue1> yeowza: did you eyeball check to make sure the module is in the directory?  hint:  ls
[00:49] <daftykins> Dan123_: don't use 14.10 for a server project :) try sticking to an LTS release
[00:49] <daftykins> no idea on your issue though.
[00:49] <Blue1> daftykins: sage advice
[00:50] <Dan123_> Using 14.04
[00:50] <daftykins> oh right so you've got the utopic HWE on then, since your kernel is 3.16?
[00:50] <daftykins> i'd avoid that too
[00:51] <Dan123_> Well if anyone can help install/configure the kernel-source my thread is here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2270054 Signing off, thought there would be more support here..
[00:52] <daftykins> for 56k modems, nope :D (i know the user left)
[00:53] <Blue1> Sometimes I feel like we're playing jeopardy.  It would help if people would phrase their query in the form of a question....just sayin....
[00:53] <oss[mob]> Now my 14.10 installation usb isn't working in this computer
[00:54] <Blue1> oss[mob]: that sounds like it may be a bios issue -- make sure usb is enable in your bios
[00:54] <daftykins> Blue1: too true. the true skill of an IT support individual is to phrase questions such that the helpee can help us - to help them :D
[00:54] <oss[mob]> It works in other computers but not this one
[00:54] <oss[mob]> Blue1: bios is set to boot to it
[00:54] <daftykins> also be sure to use USB 2 over 3, ideally
[00:54] <daftykins> don't adjust boot order, use a one time menu if possible
[00:54] <Blue1> oss[mob]: right just because it's set to boot doesn't mean it is enable
[00:54] <oss[mob]> It boots to other usbs
[00:55] <oss[mob]> Not the 14.10 one though
[00:55] <oss[mob]> 14.04.2 usb works
[00:56] <daftykins> remake it
[00:56] <Blue1> oss[mob]: when you say it boots others - does the same computer boot other bootable devices, or do other computers boot the same device....confused....
[00:56] <daftykins> hopefully you're using 'dd' to make these up
[00:56] <Alissa> Is there a way to make a launcher shortcut run the program with a specified amount of options?
[00:56] <oss[mob]> daftykins: dd?
[00:56] <daftykins> the command line utility
[00:56] <Alissa> I want to make Chromium automatically use a proxy but that's only available using --proxy-server="<IP_ADDRESS>"
[00:57] <daftykins> where sdX is your flash drive device, "sudo dd if=/path/to/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=2M"
[00:57] <oss[mob]> Blue1: other computers boot to 14.10 usb, this computer boots to 14.04.2 usb
[00:57] <oss[mob]> daftykins: k
[00:57] <Blue1> oss[mob]: thanks
[00:58] <Blue1> oss[mob]: pardon me -- but what happens when you try to boot 14.10?
[00:59] <oss[mob]> Blue1 black screen
[00:59] <oss[mob]> daftykins: dd just copied at 2.3 gb/s...
[01:00] <daftykins> to your flash drive? are you sure you chose the correct device?
[01:00] <oss[mob]> daftykins: yes
[01:00] <daftykins> also gb is gramme bits per second
[01:00] <daftykins> :)
[01:01] <oss[mob]> I'm on a phone with a crap keyboard
[01:02] <Blue1> oss[mob]: what type of video card do you have?  Hint:  lspci | grep VGA
[01:03] <oss[mob]> Blue1: I built the pc, it's an Asus radeon r9 290 dc2 4gd5
[01:03] <Jeremy26> Hi.  I'm moving to Ubuntu for my desktop machine, and working on migrating my stuff from my old OS.  In Ubuntu's "/boot" directory I see both the '/vmlinuz-*' & "/initrd-*' files, but I don't see the symlinks I'm used to -- "/vmlinuz" linked to the latest "/vmlinuz-*", and the same for "/initrd".  Is there a confi that I turn the creation of those symlinks on?
[01:04] <daftykins> Jeremy26: the files in / are symlinked to those
[01:05] <Jeremy26> daftykins: Oh wow -- never looked  in "/" for them!  Doh!  thx.
[01:06] <Blue1> oss[mob]: ahh that's a high end card.  I have geforce 210 -- that is light years ahead of anything I have here.  It does seem odd that the driver wouldn't be in 14.10 but is in the lts.  i would try nomodeset boot option
[01:06] <daftykins> np
[01:06] <daftykins> !nomodeset
[01:06] <Blue1> nomodeset = desperation time
[01:07] <daftykins> oss[mob]: i didn't realise you meant it "wasn't working" because of that. that's common
[01:07] <waroperator> hey guys.  so i have a raid 0 3 TB documents drive.  and i have my OS and other system files on my 256 gb ssd
[01:08] <oss[mob]> daftykins:?
[01:08] <waroperator> i want to find a way to redirect the bookmarks like "music, documents, downloads" etc in the file window to folders on my raid 0 drive
[01:08] <waroperator> not on my OS drive
[01:08] <daftykins> oss[mob]: black screen for newer graphics cards
[01:09] <oss[mob]> daftykins: oh
[01:09] <daftykins> waroperator: RAID 0 documents drive? that's an extremely bad setup
[01:09] <daftykins> one drive dies - you lose everything
[01:09] <oss[mob]> daftykins: so there's a fix?
[01:09] <daftykins> *facepalm*
[01:09] <oss[mob]> Blue1:?
[01:09] <oss[mob]> Sorry
[01:09] <daftykins> oss[mob]: see what ubottu said
[01:10] <siwica> what is the default location to put custom binaries within ubuntu?
[01:10] <oss[mob]> K
[01:10] <waroperator> they're documents i don't care about
[01:10] <waroperator> 1.  i don't live where there are data caps, and i'm talking about shit i download
[01:10] <daftykins> don't swear in here.
[01:10] <waroperator> and it isn't needed after a single or couple views
[01:11] <waroperator> and if i did lose them i'd just redownload them
[01:11] <daftykins> ok, so what's wrong with mounting that volume as a path under your ~?
[01:12] <waroperator> from what?  in the partition part of the installation?
[01:12] <waroperator> i used gparted to mount them under /media
[01:12] <waroperator> mount "it"
[01:14] <daftykins> you can pick where you mount things
[01:14] <daftykins> typically permanent mounts are made by editing /etc/fstab
[01:14] <oss[mob]> Nomodeset did not help
[01:15] <oss[mob]> Still nothing
[01:15] <waroperator> the fstab file is already edited
[01:15] <waroperator> before that the raid 0 drive wasn't even showing up
[01:15] <waroperator> so you think i should just mount it to /home?
[01:15] <daftykins> i think you're missing my point, but it's now bed time so i won't be able to continue
[01:16] <daftykins> oss[mob]: you're sure your download was good? tried deleting 'quiet splash' to see the boot messages?
[01:16] <oss[mob]> daftykins: k
[01:16] <waroperator> so change /media to /
[01:16] <waroperator> on fstab
[01:16] <waroperator> that's your point
[01:17] <daftykins> not quite, no
[01:17] <daftykins> it's more... set /home/yourusername/mountpoint
[01:17] <daftykins> but this is already too much effort than i intended :) nn
[01:18] <crepple> Goodnight daftykins
[01:18]  * daftykins tips hat
[01:19] <oss[mob]> daftykins: no boot messages

[01:20] <waroperator> this is exactly what i needed
[01:21] <oss[mob]> Ok, the boot usb worked, reinstalling
[01:23] <daftykins> oss[mob]: you know i was talking about the USB the whole time, not your broken install?
[01:23] <oss[mob]> daftykins: oh
[01:24] <oss[mob]> daftykins: how do you change boot options for a usb?
[01:24] <[n0mad]> haha waroperator, hope it works out...i'm pretty newb so sometimes finding information is about all i'm good for
[01:24] <waroperator> dang, easier than i thought it would be
[01:24] <waroperator> i was going about it the wrong way, trying to redirect the links on the left in the files window
[01:24] <daftykins> *facepalm*
[01:24] <waroperator> but i just needed to change where the folders in home were located
[01:24] <daftykins> sorry, i'm sleeping now

[01:27] <AfterDarkness> i was trying to copy playonlinux setting from my laptop to my pc using scp didnt realise that there was a link to root lol
[01:27] <AfterDarkness> now deleting 140gb+ of files
[01:28] <AfterDarkness> is it possible to copy without links?
[01:28] <yeowza> Is it ok if I compile a different kernel in ubuntu?  I would like to run version 2.6
[01:28] <pavlos> Alissa, you could create another menu item and modify the command, chrome --proxy-server=x.x.x.x
[01:28] <AfterDarkness> i heard rsync can do this
[01:29] <Stanley00> AfterDarkness: I don't see such param on scp manpage, so maybe you should tar that folder first, then scp the tar file only
[01:30] <Alissa> pavlos: How do I do that? I just click&drag to put them onto there.
[01:30] <Stanley00> AfterDarkness: or using tar with ssh on one line as this http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-use-tar-command-through-network-over-ssh-session/
[01:30] <AfterDarkness> u think tar-ing would be more efficient than rsync?
[01:31] <pavlos> Alissa, why UI do you have ... unity, gnome classic?
[01:31] <Stanley00> AfterDarkness: rsync is better than tar, but I think you was using scp back there?
[01:32] <Stanley00> AfterDarkness: and, btw, I heard that btsync is better than rsync too :3
[01:32] <AfterDarkness> ill look into it the folder is only 400mb it shouldnt be that big of a deal
[01:33] <AfterDarkness> but i was surprised how to managed to copy big part of the root folder shouldnt i need permission to do that on my laptop?
[01:34] <Stanley00> AfterDarkness: you just need read permission to read, and by default, you can read all in /
[01:34] <Stanley00> *to copy*
[01:34] <AfterDarkness> I see
[01:35] <AfterDarkness> but there could be sensitive information on my root. all i had to do is type my login name ip address and password
[01:35] <AfterDarkness> and my laptop didnt have a clue on what s going on lol
[01:37] <Stanley00> AfterDarkness: all in / should be readable for everyone, so you better store your "sensitive information" on your $HOME, which by default, only you and root can read it
[01:38] <oss[mob]> Ok, computer works, is running drivers, and that stuff
[01:38] <Stanley00> AfterDarkness: ah, I'm not sure about $HOME, you should check that on your system by yourself, "ls -ld $HOME"
[01:38] <Alissa> pavlos: Unity.

[02:00] <Stanley00> sue_j: first, make sure the windows partition still out there, since by default, ubuntu can see it and boot it, I'm thinking that maybe you had wide your windows partition
[02:02] <sue_j> Stanley00 I am sure windows partition 's still outthere and I can visit my windows disk in ubuntu
[02:03] <sue_j> but for some unknown reason ubuntu didn't recognize windows when I install ubuntu so didn't add it to booting options

[02:33] <Es0teric> its not
[02:33] <Es0teric> because it takes params
[02:33] <Es0teric> i am trying to figure out which params
[02:34] <jtdoncas> find . -maxdepth 1 -name "filename_to_search" -print0
[02:34] <Es0teric> jtdoncas there we go
[02:34] <Es0teric> thank you
[02:35] <jtdoncas> Es0teric: you're welcome
[02:36] <Alissa> thanks pavlos - sorry it took me so long to get it done.
[02:36] <jtdoncas> find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -name "filename_to_search" -print0 (to limit to files only)
[02:36] <TheDailyPot> you can now upgrade ubuntu to windows 10 free of charge
[02:37] <jtdoncas> TheDailyPot: haha. You're joking but it's true
[02:38] <Glamdring> I'm having difficulty finding and using a PlayStation emulator. Which ones work on AMD cards on 64 bit OSes?
[02:43] <dalekbreath> Help!! I did an upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 and now my laptop won't boot to desktop. I am getting the black screen with blinking cursor. My graphics chip is intel mobile.
[02:45] <dalekbreath> how do I get my desktop back? I can access tty terminal and log in... can't get my gui to start.
[02:46] <fk> hi
[02:46] <TheDailyPot> you cant downgrade
[02:47] <fk> is it possible list packages by category in terminal?
[02:47] <TheDailyPot> so maybe try upgrade to 15
[02:50] <dalekbreath> how do I try upgrade to 15.04?
[02:51] <snizzo> dalekbreath: do-release-upgrade from console
[02:52] <snizzo> or look into software updates if a newer version is availabe
[02:53] <snizzo> or, more brutally, change repos in /etc/apt/sources.list from utopic to vivid
[02:53] <snizzo> that one isn't a proper update btw, more of a "let's test those packages" thing
[02:53] <gshmu> sue_j: 0 mean Ubuntu, it's a list start with 0. I think 4 may mean default Windows
[02:54] <snizzo> dalekbreath: you have also nvidia as discrete graphics?
[02:54] <gshmu> anyone can tell me how to build the linux-image-extra-000.deb package?
[02:56] <dalekbreath> snizzo i have no nvidia anything... laptop has ONLY intel graphics.
[02:57] <snizzo> can post on paste.ubuntu.com log from /var/log/xorg.0.org ?
[02:57] <snizzo> any error somewhere?
[02:58] <snizzo> errors are marked with an "EE" at the start of the line
[02:58] <snizzo> in xorg logs
[02:59] <dalekbreath> snizzo? how? I can't do anything online with that laptop. Can't boot past the blank screen.. remember?
[02:59] <snizzo> dalekbreath: ok just look for lines starting with EE on those files
[02:59] <ham> ive installed odoo, configured email but not sending emails, would i have to install some soft of email client in the ubuntu server for odoo to use?
[03:00] <snizzo> they're usually at the end of the file (because errors make X crash)
[03:05] <dalekbreath> snizzo am i looking for Xorg,0.org or .log?
[03:05] <dalekbreath> snizzo... cos I can't find any file ending in .org
[03:06] <snizzo> dalekbreath: .log, my bad
[03:08] <bangrui> Hello everyone
[03:08] <bangrui> This is my first time using weechat
[03:08] <bangrui> Good night!
[03:08] <dalekbreath> snizzo I see loads of (EE) lines referring to video related modules which failed to load.
[03:08] <bangrui> quit
[03:11] <dalekbreath> snizzo modules which failed to load include: "intel", "fbdev", "vesa", "modesetting"  - theyall claim module does not exist.
[03:12] <snizzo> dalekbreath: that is bad
[03:12] <snizzo> can try to boot with a different kernel, maybe and older one?
[03:12] <snizzo> in advanced boot options I think
[03:13] <dalekbreath> snizzo ..so why are all these modules missing and is there any way I can get them back?
[03:16] <systemd0wn> Question, I started to create a bonded interface on my deskop but now I can't delete the interface from Network Manager... Some way to manually remove this?
[03:26] <flexpaint> does "error dependency is not satisfiable libstdc++6 (>= 4.9)" mean i need a newer version or an older one?
[03:26] <Samildanach> Does anyone know anything about integrated graphics?
[03:27] <Samildanach> Specifically, getting them to work correctly
[03:29] <HoloIRCUser2> Hello, can anyone tell me how to minimize swap usage if I have lot of ram?
[03:30] <dalekbreath> how can I copy my log file to a USB memory stick from terminal? how do I find the device and mount USB stick?  (I have no access to any GUI. I only have terminal access).
[03:31] <NinjaCowboy> HoloIRCUser2: There's a variable /proc/sys/vm/swappiness that controls swap usage.
[03:31] <EriC^^> dalekbreath: sudo parted -l
[03:31] <EriC^^> sudo mount /dev/sdxY /mountpoint
[03:32] <HoloIRCUser2> NinjaCowboy: thanks.
[03:32] <NinjaCowboy> HoloIRCUser2: do something like 'echo 10 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness' to change it.
[03:32] <dalekbreath> EriC^^ thanks
[03:33] <kyoshunsui>  register link4m9l<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[03:33] <Glamdring> Aw well. Now, I have this laptop that's a bit borked, and I'm trying to get it to use lxde because it's less resource intensive. The CD drive's broken. How should I go about making this happen?
[03:34] <NinjaCowboy> HoloIRCUser2: I forgot. That doesn't persist when you reboot. Edit the vm.swappiness parameter in /etc/sysctl.conf instead.
[03:34] <EriC^^> Glamdring: make a live usb
[03:35] <Glamdring> Oooh, good idea. This is where the n00b is strong in me. How do I go about that? How much space is needed?
[03:35] <HoloIRCUser2> NinjaCowboy: can I set the value to 0 ?
[03:35] <dalekbreath> EriC^^ I tried to mount it to ~/usbstick it failed with "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb, missing codepage or helper program, or other error"
[03:36] <NinjaCowboy> HoloIRCUser2: Yes. That disables swapping unless you run out of memory.
[03:36] <EriC^^> Glamdring: download an .iso and type sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX ( where /dev/sdX is your usb )
[03:37] <EriC^^> Glamdring: lubuntu is around 740mb
[03:37] <Glamdring> Excellent.
[03:37] <NinjaCowboy> I'd really only do that if I have like 8 GB of RAM, though.
[03:37] <pavlos> Alissa, np
[03:37] <Glamdring> I'll start on that immediately, I think.
[03:37] <Glamdring> Thank you!
[03:38] <EriC^^> dalekbreath: what's the exact command you typed?
[03:39] <HoloIRCUser2> NinjaCowboy: Then 4Gb is not enough? I have 4Gb ram in 32bit ubuntu.
[03:40] <dalekbreath> EriC^^ mkdir ~/usbtick [enter] then sudo mount /dev/sbd ~/usbstick [enter]
[03:41] <EriC^^> dalekbreath: /dev/sdb is the disk name, /dev/sdb1 is the first partition and so on
[03:41] <dalekbreath> ok
[03:41] <EriC^^> you need to get the partition number and mount it
[03:42] <NinjaCowboy> People generally don't recommend disabling it completely, as it's known to cause programs to crash sometimes. I never really played around with it though.
[03:47] <dalekbreath> how do I "eject" a mounted USB stick from terminal?
[03:47] <EriC^^> dalekbreath: sudo umount /mountpoint
[03:48] <dalekbreath> EriC^^ unmount command does not exist
[03:48] <EriC^^> umount
[03:48] <dalekbreath> oops.. sorry.. typo  lol
[03:48] <yeowza> hello, anyone know how to have grub automatically boot into ubuntu with no options?
[03:48] <EriC^^> :D
[03:49] <NinjaCowboy> Why should unmounting a removable drive require root priveliges?
[03:49] <EriC^^> yeowza: open /etc/default/grub and remove the comment before GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT
[03:50] <yeowza> EriC^^ thx man!
[03:50] <EriC^^> yeowza: then type sudo update-grub
[03:51] <EriC^^> NinjaCowboy: cause mounting it requires privileges
[03:51] <EriC^^> unless it is in fstab, or you use udisksctl
[03:51] <dalekbreath> thanks.. now I can finally paste my log file... here it is - http://paste.ubuntu.com/10631866/ Can someone please help me figure out how to fix my video problem? Ubuntu 14.10 boots to a black screen with blinking cursor.
[03:52] <Glamdring> That's odd. EriC^^: dd: unrecognized operand ‘of’
[03:52] <EriC^^> Glamdring: what's the exact command you used?
[03:52] <Glamdring> sudo dd if=/home/macksting/Downloads/lubuntu-14.10-desktop-i386.iso of /dev/sdd1
[03:52] <Glamdring> OH!
[03:52] <Glamdring> ARGH!
[03:52] <EriC^^> hehe
[03:52] <NinjaCowboy> EriC^^ I know that, but it just seems like something a normal user should be able to do. I can't access my USB flash drives on the computers in my school's computer lab because of that.
[03:53] <EriC^^> Glamdring: oh by the way, use sdd not sdd1
[03:53] <Glamdring> Oh.
[03:53] <NinjaCowboy> sdd is the whole drive. sdd1 is the first partition
[03:54] <Glamdring> I used sdd1. What happens now?
[03:54] <Glamdring> Should I do it over again, using sdd?
[03:54] <NinjaCowboy> Try again with sdd.
[03:54] <EriC^^> yeah
[03:55] <EriC^^> NinjaCowboy: but somebody could mount a usb with setsuid and execute arbitrary commands with root privileges
[03:55] <dalekbreath> Help! 14.10 will not boot up to desktop. I get blank screen with blinking cursor in top left corner. http://paste.ubuntu.com/10631866/
[03:55] <Glamdring> I take it this will take a while?
[03:56] <EriC^^> Glamdring: not really
[03:56] <Glamdring> Odd. Any idea why it's taking this long?
[03:56] <NinjaCowboy> Depends how fast your DVD drive is.
[03:56] <EriC^^> *usb
[03:56] <Glamdring> Ah. Well, it's an old 2GB USB stick...
[03:57] <EriC^^> Glamdring: you can check on it with sudo kill -USR1 $(pgrep dd)
[03:57] <NinjaCowboy> Glamdring: You can open another terminal and type 'pkill -USR1 dd' to get dd to tell its progress.
[03:57] <NinjaCowboy> Jinx! xD
[03:58] <EriC^^> hehe
[03:58] <EriC^^> :D
[03:58] <Glamdring> OH! It finished before I could check.
[03:58] <Glamdring> Just slow is all, I guess.
[03:58] <NinjaCowboy> There's also some funky thing you can do by piping it to pv and get a progress bar,  but I haven't really looked into that.
[03:58] <Glamdring> Though it hasn't yet given me back my cursor.
[03:59] <Glamdring> 2.2 MB/s. Yikes.
[03:59] <NinjaCowboy> If you don't have the cursor, it's not done yet.
[03:59] <Glamdring> Well, now I have the cursor.
[03:59] <Glamdring> Just... weird. I wonder if it works. I suppose I could test it.
[04:00] <EriC^^> dalekbreath: did you try booting with nomodeset ?
[04:01] <dalekbreath> EriC^^ yes.
[04:01] <EriC^^> Glamdring: yeah, give it a shot
[04:02] <EriC^^> dalekbreath: did it not boot?
[04:05] <Glamdring> I don't wanna reboot... I've got all these tabs open, and and and...
[04:05] <Glamdring> Aw well. Let's try it on the laptop. Boots slow as heck... 512 mb of RAM.
[04:07] <Glamdring> If it doesn't work, is there any harm in just retrying?
[04:08] <EriC^^> no
[04:08] <EriC^^> it should work though
[04:10] <p0ss1> good morrow friendly folks :)
[04:11] <dalekbreath> EriC^^ I am just trying to boot with nomodeset again to observe details of what happens (or doesn't). Please wait...
[04:12] <Glamdring> Failed to load ldlinux.c32
[04:12] <Glamdring> Just eject, try again?
[04:13] <dalekbreath> Eric^^ yeah... it fails to boot. It just gets stuck on the "ubuntu" splash loading screen with the 5 white/red dots. The dots get stuck on all red and then it hangs.
[04:13]  * Glamdring frowns, increasingly certain the problem is the USB stick. Which is the only such stick he has.
[04:13] <EriC^^> Glamdring: try unetbootin maybe
[04:14] <Glamdring> unetbootin? What is it, and where do I apply it?
[04:14] <EriC^^> Glamdring: it's a software for writing live usbs, type sudo apt-get install unetbootin
[04:14] <Glamdring> Ah, okay.
[04:15] <Glamdring> I'm'a try to boot from it on this box real quick. I need to reboot anyway.
[04:15] <Glamdring> Figure, while I'm at it, right?
[04:15] <Glamdring> So fare y'all well for the moment. I'll be back soon.
[04:15] <arkie> hey i set up a crontab but it seems to stop working after a few days
[04:16] <dalekbreath> EriC^^ maybe I set nomodeset incorrectly? All I did was press shift to enter Grub menu. Pressed E to edit commands for *Ubuntu option. I added nomodeset after the word quiet splash.... it fails to boot.
[04:16] <arkie> i used crontab -eu www:data
[04:16] <arkie> and added * * * * * (cd /var/www/html/dmi-tcat/capture/stream/; php controller.php)
[04:16] <EriC^^> dalekbreath: try removing quiet splash
[04:17] <arkie> it works, but then after a few days or so it stops running controller.php
[04:17] <arkie> any ideas why?
[04:17] <arkie> :/
[04:17] <EriC^^> and using nomodeset and see what it hangs on
[04:17] <p0ss1> Hi there,  two of my four sound cards disappear when a certain game crashes under wine, restarting pulseaudio doesn't bring them back and pacmd list-cards won't show them either.
[04:18] <dalekbreath> EriC^^ ok.. trying with "no splash" removed and "nomodeset" added in place of.... continuing to boot....... ok - now it's at black screen of death again with blinking cursor.
[04:19] <dalekbreath> 14.10 is fooked on my laptop. :(
[04:22] <dalekbreath> Should I also mention that the Ubuntu 14.10 desktop (64bit) live CD fails to load with a kernel panic?
[04:22] <Glamdring> Argh. Okay. Hardware question. This is the only USB stick I have, and I am sorely lacking in functioning network cables. Basically, this has GOTTA work, or I'll be SOL. It HAS read within the last hour, but now it won't respond. Assuming it didn't suddenly die in the middle of the dd process, what can I do physically to improve matters?
[04:23] <coderman1> does anyone know if theres a way to setup the linux dropbox client where i can copy files to the dropbox folder and not have it keep a local copy?
[04:24] <josephstalin> I'm trying to solve the problem stated in the OP here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/10741/how-to-set-up-dual-wired-and-wireless-connections I followed the instructions given as the solution, but it doesn't work -- there's no internet access. I ended up with: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=7wLWjXLa as my 'route' output.
[04:28] <Glamdring> Well, my wife's Mac can see it.
[04:28] <Glamdring> Doesn't like it, but can see it.
[04:28] <dalekbreath> I've wasted two whole days trying to get Ubuntu 14.10 to work. It has totally broken my system. I have no choice but to wipe my drive and re-install 14.04 and wait 10 hours for my backup to restore again :(
[04:29] <Alissa> So, I've recently set up OpenVPN and I'm not sure if it has anything to do with this but I've been stuck on http://i.imgur.com/h3ZcsD9.jpg for quite a while now.
[04:29] <Alissa> Anyone know why?
[04:32] <Alissa> I used -o Acquire::ForceIPv4=true and it works.
[04:32] <Alissa> Dunno why IPv6 broke.
[04:36] <joshka> Hi everyone, can someone help me figure out why dnsmasq isn't running on my server?
[05:05] <MeLt_> hello all
[05:07] <Alissa> Does anyone know why IPv6 isn't working with apt?
[05:08] <TeddyMurray> i have root disabled from the outside, but im trying to make winscp root during the session
[05:08] <TeddyMurray> anyone know how to do it?
[05:08] <Funambuli> sudo su?
[05:08] <celexi> you need to enable root
[05:08] <celexi> or sudo su
[05:08] <Funambuli> su?
[05:09] <TeddyMurray> i can su from putty, but not winscp
[05:09] <TeddyMurray> su - root
[05:09] <TeddyMurray> there wasn't a winscp channel :(
[05:09] <celexi> you can't do that in winscp
[05:09] <TeddyMurray> yikes
[05:10] <TeddyMurray> i guess ill enable root
[05:10] <celexi> i tried it once too and couldn't get it to work, had to connect as root
[05:10] <Funambuli> try over ssh
[05:10] <TeddyMurray> yeah, i looked through google and found nothing, Funambuli i am using ssh
[05:10] <Funambuli> that allows u sudo su
[05:11] <celexi> he wants to transfer files
[05:11] <Funambuli> spc
[05:11] <Funambuli> or scp
[05:11] <Funambuli> i dont remember the command
[05:11] <Funambuli> scp sure
[05:11] <celexi> yes, he can't sudo su or su in winscp
[05:11] <Funambuli> or sudo mc
[05:12] <Funambuli> oook
[05:12] <Funambuli> that's over tty?
[05:12] <TeddyMurray> which config file to make root accessible from the outside?
[05:12] <TeddyMurray> ubuntu 14.04
[05:12] <celexi> TeddyMurray secure way to do that is
[05:12] <celexi> you have to use ssh keys
[05:13] <TeddyMurray> i am using ssh keys :(
[05:13] <celexi> or ssh tunnel/ vpn and winscp as root from the tunnel
[05:13] <celexi> the ssh config file has an allow root login line
[05:13] <celexi> uncomment it
[05:13] <TeddyMurray> okay
[05:14] <Funambuli> putty could allow that transfer?
[05:14] <TeddyMurray> im not sure of that path
[05:14] <TeddyMurray> it does?
[05:14] <Funambuli> sorry but i left windows so many time ago
[05:14] <TeddyMurray> cool it does
[05:15] <TeddyMurray> found a tutorial
[05:15] <m3rlin22_> 32bit vs 64bit with less than 4 gb of ran. stick with 32 or go for the 64?
[05:16] <celexi> less than 4 gb or 4 gb ?
[05:16] <Alissa> m3rlin22_: 64bit is good on any system better than 2gb imo
[05:18] <m3rlin22_> one has 4 gb and I run 32 bit for now. But I have another with amd  that only came with one 2gb stick. It runs okay. I have another stick coming. But, the 4 gb on 32 bit runs much better.
[05:18] <m3rlin22_> I heaard 64 bit benefit is only realized at more than 4 gb.
[05:22] <drpoh> 1
[05:26] <m3rlin22_> Thanks Alissa. I am gonna wait for the new stick and conduct a side by side just for giggles. If I see the 64 0n 4 gb out performs the other I will be reinstalling. I am always goofing around with different didtros. But, Ubuntu has been my favorite every since 7.10.

[06:12] <abheastu> Hi! I was wondering if I was allowed to sell live USB's of Ubuntu on eBay.
[06:12] <abheastu> People are already selling it so i was wondering if they had special licenses or something
[06:13] <abheastu> Does anyone know?
[06:13] <cfhowlett> abheastu, you are.  there's a link to the relevant license somewhere
[06:14] <genii> You are not allowed to charge for the software, only the CD/DVD you put it on and shipping
[06:14] <abheastu> Is Ubuntu using the GNU license?
[06:14] <cfhowlett> abheastu, definitely!
[06:18] <cfhowlett> abheastu, http://www.zdnet.com/article/best-buy-to-sell-ubuntu-for-19-99/#!
[06:18] <cfhowlett> abheastu, for that matter, one can buy Ubuntu CD's from canonical   http://shop.canonical.com/index.php?cPath=17
[06:19] <xangua> and usb's
[06:19] <xangua> s/cd's/dvd's ;)
[06:19] <cfhowlett> xangua, I've not seen the canonical USB link
[06:19] <DoverMo> scim and ibus are failing to type within flash input forms
[06:19] <DoverMo> 14.04.2
[06:20] <xangua> I remember it, maybe they stopped?
[06:23] <DoverMo> seems like it refuses to switch inputs
[06:24] <DoverMo> oh wait
[06:24] <C0r3> How compatible is the latest version of Oracle VM VirtualBox with Ubuntu 14.04 ?
[06:25] <DoverMo> nvm
[06:26] <cfhowlett> C0r3, runs 100%
[06:26] <C0r3> cfhowlett, No networking problems?
[06:26] <cfhowlett> C0r3, not on wifi.  I can't speak to ethernet as I never use it.
[06:27] <C0r3> Alright. Can you guide me to setup my hacking lab??
[06:27]  * cfhowlett raises a very skeptical eyebrow
[06:28]  * C0r3 is looking forward for some help!
[06:28] <cfhowlett> C0r3, install ubuntu 14.04.2.  Get the latest vbox from oracle.  install it.  install distro of choice to vbox.  configure network passthrough
[06:29] <C0r3> cfhowlett, I face problems configuring the network part.
[06:31] <cfhowlett> C0r3, different advice based on different goals ... best to ask the #vbox for your specific requirements
[06:32] <C0r3> I've already asked there. They told me to go for #ubuntu #networking or #hacking
[06:33] <cfhowlett> C0r3, Network > adapter 1 > Enable Network Adapter: Attached to NAT is one way
[06:35] <C0r3> cfhowlett, Thank you. I'll try that and will let you know.
[06:50] <t0xic> Hi guys
[06:50] <t0xic> I was wondering if the Ubuntu logo had any copyright issues
[06:50] <t0xic> I wanted to use it for a project of mine
[06:51] <cfhowlett> t0xic, you have to give proper attributions
[06:51] <t0xic> I would be selling this project so is there any copyright issues
[06:51] <t0xic> Yes, I would do that
[06:51] <t0xic> Anything else?
[06:51] <cfhowlett> t0h, design.canonical.com
[06:54] <cfhowlett> t0h, I believe the "Brand Guidelines" will offer specific guidance
[07:00] <DoverMo> ugh
[07:02] <rypervenche> DoverMo: I've had that problem on some applications. I use fcitx now for it, but yeah. I don't remember if there was a fix for it or how it was resolved for me.
[07:02] <DoverMo> hmm
[07:03] <DoverMo> rypervenche: yeah i'm gonna have to try that
[07:03] <DoverMo> rypervenche: i just went through everything with ibus settings, no luck
[07:04] <rypervenche> DoverMo: And you're adding the appropriate variables to your session?
[07:04] <DoverMo> rypervenche: yeah
[07:04] <rypervenche> DoverMo: What language(s) are you using the IME for?
[07:06] <DoverMo> rypervenche: japanese
[07:07] <rypervenche> DoverMo: Yeah, anthy works fine in fcitx. Give it a shot. Also, try a different brower.
[07:07] <rypervenche> browser even.
[07:07] <DoverMo> okay
[07:07] <DoverMo> brb
[07:08] <DoverMo> so
[07:08] <DoverMo> how do i autostart it
[07:09] <DoverMo> fcitx?
[07:10] <DoverMo> it's saying that it needs a frontend setup
[07:10] <DoverMo> where to you specify that
[07:11] <DoverMo> oh i guess configtool
[07:11] <rypervenche> DoverMo: Yep, configure it using the settings from the panel icon or the configtool binary.
[07:15] <DoverMo> rypervenche: urrr. i hit plus, but no methods show up
[07:17] <DoverMo> this is new
[07:19] <rypervenche> DoverMo: Did you install fcitx-anthy?
[07:19] <DoverMo> rypervenche: yeah
[07:20] <DoverMo> maybe i forgot to logback in
[07:21] <DoverMo> yeah had to log in
[07:24] <DoverMo> now to start it...
[07:27] <DoverMo> rypervenche: how do you start it?
[07:27] <brucelee> does ubuntu generate a preseed file after manual installation
[07:28] <DoverMo> rypervenche: when you login, it auto starts the daemon.. right?
[07:28] <DoverMo> then how to do type
[07:28] <DoverMo> do you*
[07:31] <DoverMo> i dunno, the daemon is running, but switching methods shows nothing and disables typing
[07:32] <har00n> hey there guys
[07:32] <DoverMo> does it need the frontend package?
[07:33] <har00n> i wanted some answers about metasploit
[07:34] <Ben64> probably not the right channel for that, you may want #metasploit
[07:34] <har00n> okay thanks
[07:35] <har00n> does my ports need to be forward for  exploiting
[07:38] <DoverMo> rypervenche: it's working now
[07:39] <har00n> ??
[07:39] <DoverMo> can type in flash input boxes
[07:39] <DoverMo> thanks
[07:39] <darklord_> I had installed kubuntu on a laptop and then installed xububtu-desktop. Now I am happy with xfce, any way i can cleanly remove kde and all its components?
[07:40] <har00n> i am also using Xubuntu desktop
[07:41] <cfhowlett> !purexubuntu
[07:41] <har00n> nope
[07:41] <Ben64> cfhowlett: too old
[07:41] <cfhowlett> doh!
[07:42] <darklord_> then what should i do?
[07:42] <darklord_> all the forum posts say there is no complete fool proof way to do this
[07:43] <Ben64> darklord_: you can try one listed here, just omit the last part where it installs "ubuntu-desktop" http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/tag/pure-ubuntu/
[07:43] <Ben64> actually, change the ubuntu-desktop to xubuntu-desktop
[07:43] <cfhowlett> darklord_, reinstall xubuntu
[07:43] <darklord_> okay
[07:43] <darklord_> thanks. Going to try  now.
[07:45] <har00n> does my ports need to be forward for metasploit or other things
[07:46] <DoverMo> just build ubuntu from core, so easy O:
[07:46] <Ben64> har00n: ask #metasploit ...
[07:46] <har00n> thier chat room need some authentication
[07:47] <Ben64> so authenticate, you might need to register with nickserv... /msg nickserv help register
[07:47] <littlebit> hi people, I wanted to know if there is a way of telling my os to stop generating those log.gz files
[07:49] <rypervenche> DoverMo: You have to have it do it in your autostart program.s
[07:50] <DoverMo> rypervenche: yeah
[07:53] <royalaxe> hello lads, i made a new user and now the pc boots into that one first. is there an easy way to change it so it boots into the orriginal user first?
[07:53] <richard_w> my firefox crashes 5 seconds after startup since the last update
[07:53] <richard_w> anyone else experiencing this problem?
[07:53] <richard_w> even safe mode crashes
[07:54] <Ben64> run it from terminal and pastebin the error(s)
[07:54] <RudeViper> I am locked out of the server - it won't take my password at all
[07:54] <DoverMo> richard_w: what's the terminal error?!
[07:54] <keags> k
[07:54] <darklord_> any good light weight, fast, secure IRC clients for xfce. Suggesssions pl
[07:55] <richard_w> wait i'll just run it with english locale
[07:55] <DoverMo> darklord_: mirc
[07:55] <DoverMo> but you need wine
[07:56] <Ben64> gross, why would you run mirc at all
[07:57] <richard_w> Bus-Zugriffsfehler (Speicherabzug geschrieben)
[07:57] <richard_w> Bus-Zugriffsfehler (Speicherabzug geschrieben)
[07:57] <richard_w> which means "Bus Access error (memory dump written)"
[07:58] <nonix4> Does Trusty Tahr have some equivalent of "fbset" to get any other resolution than 1024x768 for my i915 framebuffer console?
[07:58] <richard_w> before that a couple of pipelight initialization logs which seem to succeed
[07:58] <Ben64> richard_w: reboot? reinstall xulrunner?
[07:59] <Ben64> nonix4: fbset exists
[07:59] <nonix4> Ben64: But says the ioctls are unsupported
[08:00] <nonix4> Ben64: prolly has to do with KMS deprecating that stuff
[08:00] <Ben64> richard_w: are you out of space
[08:00] <rypervenche> darklord_: weechat (command line), hexchat
[08:00] <richard_w> Ben64: nope. memory and disk < 20%
[08:00] <richard_w> i'll try to reboot. Maybe dbus has gone haywire
[08:01] <richard_w> and since dbus does not consider itself an ordinary daemon it doesnt seem to be restartable using init
[08:01] <DoverMo> richard_w: indeed
[08:02] <richard_w> brb
[08:02] <DoverMo> slap the dbus
[08:06] <richard_w> firefox keeps crashing even after reboot
[08:06] <richard_w> and killing all plugins
[08:06] <Ben64> reinstall xulrunner
[08:07] <Ben64> ooh they changed the name
[08:08] <nonix4> Ben64: ... oh I forgot to mention: Hotplugged monitor on DP.
[08:08] <Ben64> richard_w: move your .mozilla folder ?
[08:09] <richard_w> Ben64: Still crashing after "mv .mozilla{,.old}"
[08:09] <cfhowlett> richard_w, yep, rename/mv your mozilla folder
[08:10] <richard_w> trying dpkg-reconfigure
[08:10] <richard_w> still crashing
[08:12] <richard_w> I can not find the xulrunner package in the sources at all
[08:12] <richard_w> and i seem to recall they integrated it in the package itself
[08:13] <EriC^^> richard_w: Ben64 was saying they changed the name
[08:13] <DoverMo> should stayed at 12.04 lts
[08:13] <richard_w> EriC^^: I checked the dependencies of the firefox package and there is nothing similar (14.10)
[08:15] <EriC^^> richard_w: what's it supposed to do anyways
[08:15] <EriC^^> there's xul-ext-ubufox , which sets up firefox for ubuntu
[08:15] <richard_w> EriC^^: It is the GUI toolkit used by mozilla applications
[08:15] <EriC^^> oh
[08:16] <richard_w> ubufox is just a firefox extension
[08:21] <richard_w> i have the general feeling that maintainers got sloppy in the last few months
[08:22] <bekks> A general piece of chocolate helps against general bad feelings.
[08:22] <richard_w> first there is this bug that randomly changes your keyboard layout in 14.04... then afs breaks completely with the kernel update
[08:23] <bekks> Do you have bug reports for these issues handy?
[08:24] <richard_w> mom i'll get them
[08:25] <richard_w> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1246272
[08:26] <richard_w> It has low priority, although multiple people said it breaks their workstation setups in the company
[08:28] <bekks> And did you try the numerous workarounds already?
[08:29] <richard_w> It effictively prevents the computer illiterates in my office (70%) from working at all if it happens because they are not able to enter their password on an english layout
[08:29] <richard_w> bekks: yes, all of them
[08:29] <richard_w> and the frequency of the error has lowered
[08:29] <bekks> Are you using USB keyboards?
[08:29] <richard_w> but it still appears occasionally which *always* results in a call to my cell phone
[08:30] <richard_w> bekks: yes we use usb keyboards
[08:30] <bekks> And did you disable USB powersaving?
[08:32] <richard_w> Not yet... Must admit i last looked into this issue in depth in january
[08:32] <richard_w> just monitoring if the bug is still open since then
[08:32] <bekks> So the answer to "And did you try the numerous workarounds already?" is "no".
[08:33] <richard_w> Well... Not this particular one yet
[08:46] <NwS> Heya guys, I've manually edited some iptables rules can you please let me know the command to apply the changes?
[08:46] <bekks> How and where did you edit them?
[08:47] <NwS> under etc/ with pico
[08:47] <NwS> I managed to block everyone out of the server before lol..
[08:48] <bekks> NwS: Where exactly "under etc/"?
[08:48] <NwS> bekks, I am using Virtualmin so there was a file etc/iptables.up.rules
[08:49] <bekks> Never used Virtualmin, sorry.
[08:51] <nonix4> Does i915 drm limit console max res to whatever screen was connected at boot time & 1024x768 if none was? Seems to set max at 1024x768 on a host that is not going to be rebooted just to see what it does if something is connected on boot.
[08:58] <nonix4> ... hmm, what I'm observing might be a duplicate of redhat#1117008, wonder whether that exists on launchpad.
[08:59] <StephenED> Hello everyone!
[08:59] <StephenED> Stephen Elliott here...
[08:59] <NwS> bekks, iptables-restore worked after all
[09:00] <StephenED> I have been having some difficulty getting my Broadcom Wireless card working with Trusty 10.14
[09:00] <StephenED> Apparently there is a kernel header conflict with the built-in driver on the disk.
[09:00] <StephenED> However, I had noticed that there are a lot of people with this issue; so I wanted to help organize support for it.
[09:00] <StephenED> There are a few configurations that have been reported to work.
[09:01] <StephenED> And with other configurations, I have read reports of people having perhaps solvable issue.
[09:01] <bekks> StephenED: Which Ubuntu do you have exactly, which Broadcom Wifi chipset exactly, and which issue exactly? :)
[09:01] <StephenED> If anyone would like to provide more information about any issue with networking with Broadcom devices and Ubuntu 10.14.04 Trusty, I would love to receive more detail at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[09:02] <StephenED> Just a moment ...
[09:02] <StephenED> let me get you that information.
[09:02] <bekks> StephenED: Do you have Ubuntu 10.04, 10.10, 14.04 or 14.10 ?
[09:02] <serega527> hello al!
[09:02] <StephenED> I have 14e4:4315 rev 01
[09:03] <bekks> BCM4315?
[09:03] <StephenED> It is "supported" on the Broadcom site and also there is a built-in driver
[09:03] <StephenED> Yes 4315 is wat is reported with lshw
[09:03] <StephenED> I am using the wireless card now under 10.10 and it works great!
[09:03] <StephenED> So I know that the hardware is terrific.
[09:04] <bekks> 10.10 is EOL for a long time now.
[09:04] <StephenED> However, under Ubuntu 14.04 it does not work out of the box.
[09:04] <bekks> So can you start to be specific, finally, please?
[09:04] <StephenED> Right and supposedly 14.04 LTS has 5 years of support; that is what is motivating me to migrate.
[09:04] <k1l> that is because the kernel changed and 43xx broadcoms need to change the module used
[09:04] <StephenED> But even though this is a supported configuration for 14.04 LTS, it is not working there.
[09:04] <bekks> What are you doing, and what is this "Apparently there is a kernel header conflict with the built-in driver on the disk" all about?
[09:05] <StephenED> I attempted to recompile the driver.
[09:05] <StephenED> As you say, the "kernel changed" with 14.04 LTS
[09:05] <bekks> How? Why?
[09:05] <StephenED> So I found the lines of C code and the specific errors.
[09:05] <k1l> StephenED: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[09:05] <bekks> StephenED: Which driver did you try to recompile how?
[09:06] <StephenED> Exactly.
[09:06] <StephenED> That is what I used to give you the information about [14e4:4315] (rev 01)
[09:06] <cloudbud> im working a system administrator and i need to fill a form for a new job . what hsould i give in this answer What kind of roles and responsibilities you are looking at in this new job?
[09:06] <k1l> from kernel 3.xx on you need to purge the bcmwl and sta drivers and install the b43 one
[09:06] <bekks> cloudbud: Totally not related to any Ubuntu support issue. :)
[09:07] <StephenED> I actually did that!
[09:07] <cloudbud> bekks : but still can anybody help me
[09:07] <StephenED> But the b43 driver on the disk does not compile!
[09:07] <StephenED> That is because of the header file conflict with the kernel.
[09:07] <bekks> StephenED: How exactly did you try...?
[09:07] <k1l> StephenED: dont compile stuff yoursefl. ubuntu ships it already
[09:07] <StephenED> The C function is basically expecting a different kernel header.
[09:07] <bekks> And can you specify that "header file conflict" finally?
[09:08] <StephenED> If it works, I do not need to compile it myself; however, I program in over 14 languages and I even helped HP develop kernel drivers for Linux; so this is not out of the world for me.
[09:08] <bekks> Pastebin the command and the full output you are using to produce that error please.
[09:08] <StephenED> I have the session output available to email someone.  But I need an email address.
[09:08] <bekks> StephenED: And can you please stop the general chat about general issues when trying to solve your specififc issue? It doesnt help at all.
[09:08] <bekks> !pastebin
[09:09] <k1l> StephenED: please show a "dpkg -l | grep linux-header" and a "uname -a" from your system with that error
[09:09] <StephenED> And myself, I would like to understand what the wireless kernel is looking for.
[09:09] <StephenED> The error happens in the compilation phase.
[09:09] <bekks> Pastebin it.
[09:10] <StephenED> The driver actually never gets built to report under dpkg -l, but it is a good step that you mention.  I just want to understand it clearly, what you are asking for.
[09:10] <bekks> Pastebin the error.
[09:10] <StephenED> I can start fresh booting from the 10.14 kernel.
[09:10] <StephenED> Do you want me to run that step right away?
[09:10] <bekks> There is no Ubuntu 10.14 at all.
[09:11] <StephenED> I can start fresh in the 14.04 LTS kernel.
[09:11] <StephenED> Do you want me to run that step right away?
[09:11] <k1l> StephenED: please pastebin the errors so we can start sorting out possible errors. starting on the used kernel and headers and see if they mismatch
[09:11] <bekks> StephenED: Do you think I want to you to start that thing when asking your three times for the output?
[09:12] <thorie> hello! :) can anyone suggest their favorite terminal app? i'm using the default xterm, wondering if there's something better?
[09:12] <StephenED> I am a little new to the pastebin process.  Can you get me a link?
[09:12] <k1l> !paste | StephenED
[09:12] <cfhowlett> thorie, ask in #ubuntu-offtopic; this is no the place for opinion polls.  thank you.
[09:13] <thorie> ok thanks
[09:13] <k1l> thorie: standard is gnome-terminal for ubuntu and that is what most will use. if you want different features see what terminal will fulfill that
[09:14] <StephenED> I have some information from you.  I can post the result on my website if there is not a private route.  Or I can also seutp an email address for you.  It should not be a problem.
[09:14] <StephenED> I appreciate your help, and I wish you the best!
[09:14] <bekks> Pastebin the output requested.
[09:15] <StephenED> http://pastebin.com/
[09:15] <bekks> Thats the link we gave you.
[09:15] <StephenED> Let me get this together and then post it!  Thank you for now.
[09:15] <bekks> No open it in your browser, pastebin the output, and provide the URL generated.
[09:15] <StephenED> (I do not have web-access in 10.14 so I need to boot back and forth and this takes awhile!)
[09:16] <StephenED> That is not 10.14 but rather 14.04
[09:16] <bekks> You can use a USB device, too.
[09:16] <StephenED> I will have to post again later.  Thank you for the step.  Storage is no issue.  I can access my HD booting from either OS.
[09:22] <Mouzz> Where would I go with a question about installing with apt-get while preseeding an ubuntu desktop from behing a proxy (no direct internet access)
[09:23] <k1l> you can setup apt-get to use a proxy
[09:24] <k1l> Mouzz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto#Setting_up_apt-get_to_use_a_http-proxy
[09:25] <Mouzz> k1l: I have set up a proxy in the preseed file (which works after installation is finished), but that does not get the pkg installed. The pkg does get installed if I grant the machine direct inet access.
[09:25] <Mouzz> k1l: I'll try the link, thnx
[09:28] <Chetic> how can I widen hexdump's output?
[09:33] <YamakasY> hi guys, my unattended upgrade are on 1 but packages are not upgraded
[09:38] <nodnormal> hey, i would like to set up a mail system on my computer so that i can recieve and send mail with mutt and the console, what is the easist way of going about this?
[09:39] <nodnormal> i know i need mutt, a mta and something that fetches the mail? also, i would like spamfilter and antivirus
[09:39] <nodnormal> im just wondering which mta and which "mail fetcher"
[09:42] <nodnormal> and how can i control which services to run?
[09:43] <mad93> you can look fetchmail if you want to download mails from remote server
[09:43] <ws2k3> Hello, when i try to do a apt-get upgrade i get  unable to open files list file for package `passwd': No such device or address
[09:46] <cfhowlett> ws2k3, there is no package names "passwd"
[09:46] <cfhowlett> as you've typed it wrong
[09:47] <tos-1> nodnormal: I use fetchmail (for downloading new mail from the server), procmail (to deliver them to local inboxes) and msmtp (for sending) with mutt.
[09:47] <Lamp> hi, how do i install minecraft(i already bought it), do i go on the official website or do i just use the terminal with "sudo apt-get install Minecraft3 ?
[09:48] <ws2k3> cfhowlett how you mean? this error comes up when i try to do a apt-get upgrade..
[09:48] <nodnormal> tos-1: i see, thanks. are those hard to configure?
[09:48] <nodnormal> can i use procmail to filter mail?
[09:48] <cfhowlett> ws2k3, what does this command return?  cat /etc/issue
[09:49] <nodnormal> and do those programs work with spamassassin and clamav or something similar?
[09:49] <ws2k3> cfhowlett Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS \n \l that it returns
[09:49] <Lamp> hello?
[09:50] <cfhowlett> ws2k3, then you should be good.  I can only think you have misspelled the package name?
[09:50] <tos-1> nodnormal: They aren't hard to configure, if you know what you're doing :) Maybe you could find an online tutorial or just try the manpages.
[09:50] <cfhowlett> Lamp, ask your ubuntu question
[09:50] <mad93> cfhowlett: can't be that /var/lib/dpkg/info/passwd.list is damaged?
[09:50] <cfhowlett> Lamp, ah, you did that!  sorry
[09:50] <Lamp> should i install minecraft via their website or the terminal
[09:50] <mad93> or wherever it saves the list of files
[09:51] <Lamp> np ^^
[09:51] <cfhowlett> mad93, possible, but that would be ... bad  ;L
[09:51] <ws2k3> cfhowlett cat /var/lib/dpkg/info/passwd.list
[09:51] <ws2k3> cat: /var/lib/dpkg/info/passwd.list: No such device or address
[09:52] <cfhowlett> ws2k3, try this:   dpkg -l passwd
[09:53] <mad93> maybe reinstall it with apt-get install --reinstall passwd ?
[09:54] <cfhowlett> ws2k3, this ^^^^
[09:54] <cfhowlett> Lamp, http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/install-minecraft-in-ubuntu-14-04/

[10:03] <thedirchev> serega527,  yes
[10:03] <Lamp> ask
[10:05] <cfhowlett> !ask | serega527,
[10:06] <donniezazen> Is there a commandline tool to control bluetooth in Kubuntu? Like check status if the device is ON or OFF.
[10:06] <serega527> i use openvpn connection on my laptop. every day I turn on it manually. how can turn on them automatically?
[10:07] <gr33n7007h> donniezazen: hciconfig
[10:08] <Lamp> cfhowlett: I followed the instructions on the link but there is nothing
[10:08] <serega527> i use network manager
[10:11] <serega527> thanks for help. i newman here, so sorry
[10:14] <donniezazen> gr33n7007h: there seems to be some problem with either my system or there is a bug. If I disable bluetooth device via sudo hciconfig hci0 down, the LED indicator light stays on no matter what.
[10:16] <bekks> 11##
[10:20] <gr33n7007h> donniezazen: does it go off if you type: "sudo rfkill block bluetooth" ?
[10:20] <gr33n7007h> the led that is
[10:21] <purple1> !seen lamdabot
[10:21] <setra> how can I remove (not manually, because I do not know what mount point belongs to which drive) all mountpoint from accidently removed usb hdds
[10:24] <Nikhil> !ping
[10:24] <nodnormal> is there a way to see if i have daemons related to e-mail running by default on my system?
[10:24] <Nikhil>  /o/ |o| \o\
[10:26] <nextbox> When I login to nagios in firefox (kerberos authentication) it get's really slow, and everytime I click a link the whole browser freezes temporarily. Seems like it tries to authenticate even though the login succedeed =/
[10:26] <k1l> nodnormal: see what processes are running: ps ax
[10:28] <Distorzion> how would I copy data from x.img to a partition? when I mount x.img I cannot access partition, both are on the same phys HDD
[10:29] <keags> sd
[10:30] <cfhowlett> Distorzion, cp is the command for copying files.
[10:31] <Distorzion> cannot access the mounted partition, nor mount or umount it
[10:31] <donniezazen> gr33n7007h: yes it does
[10:31] <cfhowlett> Distorzion, ah, that would be a whole 'nother issue
[10:32] <cfhowlett> disputin, wait, wait. .img is Apple OSX format, yes??
[10:32] <Ben64> .img can be anything
[10:32] <cfhowlett> Ben64, noted
[10:32] <Distorzion> .img is from a damaged hdd in ntfs
[10:32] <Ben64> cfhowlett: you're probably thinking of .dmg though :)
[10:33] <cfhowlett> that's the one!
[10:33] <Ben64> Distorzion: what exactly are you trying to do
[10:33] <Distorzion> I can access the data and view it, but when I want to transfer, i cannot mount the partition where i want to transfer
[10:34] <A_I_> hi
[10:34] <Distorzion> I want to copy only  few files from .img to a new partition
[10:34] <Ben64> did you mount the image
[10:35] <Distorzion> yes, and also mount the partition where i want to transfer data
[10:35] <Distorzion> but the destiny partition becomes unavailable when I mount .img
[10:35] <dgarstang> Can someone tell me why "ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa" is required?
[10:36] <dgarstang> Doesn't the ssh-add agent do this automatially for you?
[10:36] <Ben64> Distorzion: mount them both, then pastebin the output of "mount"
[10:36] <Distorzion> ok, any order or doesnt matter?
[10:37] <Ben64> shouldn't matter
[10:44] <crepple> Distorzion: The idea occurs, why not use 7z and put them where you want them after. Too many?
[10:44] <crepple> I'm speaking from no experience. Just a wild idea
[10:47] <kk_drop> how to restrict any connection to server (ssh, http, ftp etc) to one (or more) ip address?
[10:49] <Ben64> kk_drop: ufw or iptables
[10:50] <serega527> hello
[10:51] <crepple> serega527 hello
[10:51] <serega527> i use openvpn connection on my laptop. every day I turn on it manually. how can turn on them automatically?
[10:52] <Distorzion> http://pastebin.com/UkZH39ze kind a mess but there is
[10:53] <Distorzion> btw, gg is a folder from /dev/sda2
[10:54] <serega527> i use NM on ubuntu 14.04
[10:54] <crepple> serega527 http://askubuntu.com/questions/328823/vpn-autoconnect
[10:55] <serega527> crepple, I will see. thk
[10:57] <crepple> serega527 Hope it works. I've not tried it, but Askubuntu is usually pretty reliable.
[10:57] <crocodilehunter> Hi Everyone! I'm trying to download about 2GB of torrents, does anyone know how to stop my computer from sleeping? I have tried switching it off in the GUI system settings but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated!
[10:58] <crocodilehunter> Sorry, I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS...
[10:58] <thedirchev> install tweak tools
[10:59] <thedirchev> there you will find more options
[10:59] <crocodilehunter> thedirchev: Sorry, is that advice for me?
[11:00] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[11:01] <k1l> crocodilehunter: what desktop?
[11:01] <Distorzion> Ben64, crepple, nvm, solved, I was using the same mountpoint
[11:01] <thedirchev> crocodilehunter, yes
[11:02] <crepple> Distorzion Good. So a typo essentially :)
[11:02] <crocodilehunter> k1l: I believe it's Unity...
[11:03] <crocodilehunter> thedirchev: Thanks. I'll try it now...
[11:03] <k1l> crocodilehunter: and the systemsettings -> energie thing doesnt work for you? it does for me
[11:03] <k1l> or did you install some other screensavers or such?
[11:03] <thedirchev> crocodilehunter, gl
[11:04] <jarnos> Bug #1409332
[11:05] <Nikhil> hey ubottu
[11:05] <crocodilehunter> k1l: Yes, that's right. When I go to System Settings> Power> Suspend when inactive= Don't Suspend, but it still sleeps..
[11:05] <Nikhil> !ping
[11:05] <Nikhil> I like it
[11:06] <jarnos> I guess occurrence of this bug depends on graphics driver. Should I change the report somehow?
[11:06] <Distorzion> crepple, i thought mount would use the label of the partition/img as the root folder to mount. mkdir 3 different folders and mount to each did the trick and cp works normally
[11:07] <jarnos> Nikhil, I don't like that mouse cursor freezes. It is especially annoying in guest session, as you can't store settings.
[11:09] <Nikhil> jarnos, why does that happened?
[11:09] <jarnos> Nikhil, good question.
[11:10] <Nikhil> :)
[11:10] <crocodilehunter> thedirchev: So I have unity-tweak-tool installed. how do I stop it from sleeping? Thanks...
[11:11] <jarnos> Nikhil, does it happen, when you play youtube?
[11:11] <Nikhil> some times
[11:11] <Nikhil> not always
[11:11] <jarnos> Nikhil, do you have Intel graphics?
[11:12] <Nikhil> yea
[11:12] <Nikhil> built-in one tho
[11:12] <Nikhil> my mozilla always complains about flash player,
[11:13] <crocodilehunter> k1l: No, I have not installed any other screen savers...
[11:14] <jarnos> Nikhil, what does it complain about it? I have no issues with Flash when using Firefox.
[11:14] <Nikhil> it says to install flash player even though I installed it several times
[11:14] <Nikhil> the flash plugin
[11:16] <nodnormal> how can i set fetchmail to run as a startup service?
[11:16] <jarnos> Nikhil, you mean flashplugin-installer? Which release of Ubuntu you are using?
[11:16] <Nikhil> 14.10
[11:16] <jarnos> Oh, 14.04 here
[11:17] <nodnormal> im a bit confused by systemd rc.d startup init.d etc, which is ubuntu using to keep track of which services/daemons should be run on startup
[11:23] <serega527> does anyone here me?
[11:24] <crepple> serega527 I hear you now but I haven't been reading for a while and need to scrollback :)
[11:25] <serega527> I test android irc client, so write this)))
[11:26] <crepple> I can't really use a virtual keyboard well enough to irc on the go :(
[11:37] <kk_drop> Ben64, thx, and if there is already IP forwarding for vpn on this server will it work?
[11:37] <kk_drop> maybe I'll show you my iptables

[12:01] <svart> I removed the apt version of wget (1.13), downloaded wget 1.16 source and compiled it. Now that I want to install Chrome I get a silly error message "Package wget is not installed"
[12:02] <svart> I can agree to "package" is not install but the program is very much installed.
[12:02] <svart> Any suggestions on how to solve this?
[12:02] <janslow> Have you put wget or a symlink to it in the location that Chrome is checking for it? Maybe in your PATH? svart
[12:02] <EriC^^> why don't you get the wget package as a .deb
[12:03] <k1l> why not compile the source to a own wget package and install that?
[12:04] <EriC^^> !info wget
[12:04] <EriC^^> where are the vivid repos?
[12:06] <svart> janslow: How can I find out which location Chrome is looking for it?
[12:06] <EriC^^> svart: vivid uses wget 1.16.1-1ubuntu1
[12:06] <EriC^^> you could grab that deb and try to install it
[12:08] <EriC^^> i guess this is it http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/w/wget/wget-udeb_1.16.1-1ubuntu1_amd64.udeb
[12:08] <EriC^^> what's a .udeb by the way?
[12:08] <EriC^^> try this http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/w/wget/wget_1.16.1-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
[12:08] <svart> I ended up here https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/wget/download
[12:09] <EriC^^> use the second link, get the .deb and run sudo dpkg -i /path/to/deb
[12:10] <slipttees> Hi guys

[12:10] <svart> Can dpkg fix missing dependencies?
[12:11] <amirudinabdullah> chroot help?
[12:11] <EriC^^> svart: i don't think so, you can force it to install even if they're missing though
[12:11] <EriC^^> svart: have you manually installed the dependencies?
[12:12] <EriC^^> these are the deps http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/wget
[12:13] <EriC^^> svart: which ubuntu are you using?
[12:13] <svart> 12.04
[12:13] <EriC^^> ok, /msg ubottu !info libc6 precise
[12:13] <EriC^^> i think they're all satisfied already
[12:13] <philip>  file transfer protocol for ubuntu is wat pls
[12:14] <EriC^^> or not
[12:14] <svart> libc6 is 2.15 and wget require 2.17
[12:14] <EriC^^> yeah
[12:14] <k1l> philip: you know it as "ftp". and ftp is old and insecure. use sftp which is included in ssh already
[12:16] <EriC^^> svart: you could maybe create a dummy package called wget if you want, or maybe do as k1l said and convert your source to a .deb and install that
[12:16] <philip> okay.
[12:17] <k1l> !checkinstall | svart
[12:18] <philip> kil:wat about using scp
[12:18] <svart> Awesome!
[12:19] <EriC^^> nice
[12:19] <HoloIRCUser1> What are best IDE's for php programing available on ubuntu?
[12:19] <k1l> philip: scp works, too
[12:20] <k1l> !scp | philip
[12:20] <svart> As for your file transfer discussion I'm going to throw rsync in there. Easy enough to use.
[12:21] <svart> So how come new versions of tool like wget are not available in an LTS release such as 12.04?

[12:26] <nightwalkerkg> Well, when i click on the icon nothing happens.
[12:26] <nightwalkerkg> And the icon got bigger.

[13:01] <jawl> k1l_: thx for help !!!
[13:01] <EriC^^> YazzMatazz: both would be ok if you know the system, i dislike yum myself but i haven't used it that much, other than that i think centos has older packages and i guess it's more stable and less cutting edge
[13:03] <nightwalkerkg> Ok, is there a way to restore everything to default settings ? That attempt to install gnome messed up everything.
[13:03] <EriC^^> nightwalkerkg: purge the gnome package
[13:03] <nightwalkerkg> EriC^^, did it, nothing happened.
[13:03] <EriC^^> and whatever packages that it pulled in
[13:03] <EriC^^> nightwalkerkg: ok, try to reinstall all ubuntu-desktop packages
[13:04] <nightwalkerkg> Wait, let me try something.
[13:04] <EriC^^> nightwalkerkg: try this apt-cache depends ubuntu-desktop | awk '/Depends/ {print$2}' | xargs sudo apt-get install --reinstall

[13:06] <EriC^^> nightwalkerkg: add -y at the end
[13:07] <nightwalkerkg> EriC^^, also i get info that some packages can't be reinstalled.
[13:07] <EriC^^> hmm
[13:08] <EriC^^> nightwalkerkg: try one without --reinstall maybe
[13:08] <EriC^^> then with --reinstall
[13:08] <stobix> fml. Does the libgl1-mesa packages need to have the same version for different architectures to be able to be installed?
[13:10] <SchrodingersScat> halfbeing: I have a 'Preferred Applications' setting group in my settings, you may have similar?
[13:10] <newUbu_user9> what does installing a package which is already installed cause?
[13:11] <Matreko> newUbu_user9, nothing
[13:11] <Matreko> It will say that the package is already the newest version.
[13:12] <jawl> k1l_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10634616/    Shit is happens
[13:12] <stobix> Is there a way to see from what repository a package is installed?

[13:13] <newUbu_user9> that's a relief, thanks
[13:13] <SchrodingersScat> newUbu_user9: If it was a dependency of another package before, it may be set to manually installed, and I think that means it wouldn't show up in autoremove if you removed the first package.
[13:14] <newUbu_user9> how do u send a message to a specific user here?

[13:19] <ams__> SchrodingersScat: would you expect it to work?
[13:19] <ams__> The complication here is it's a 32 bit package I want for a 64 bit machine. And I already have the 64 bit package installed.
[13:21] <EriC^^> ams__: apt-cache show libxslt1.1:i386 doesn't show it?

[13:22] <newUbu_user9> why do i get "package files are at ~path" instead of it being installed n unpacked?
[13:22] <EriC^^> ams__: i have that and i haven't enabled any 32 bit repos as far as i know
[13:23] <ams__> EriC^^: huh. weird.
[13:23] <EriC^^> ams__: i mean i have the package it says it's in main i386
[13:23] <EriC^^> yeah
[13:23] <EriC^^> let me check my sources
[13:23] <k1l_> jawl: please pastebin a "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[13:24] <EriC^^> ams__: nothing out of the ordinary

[13:27] <jawl> k1l_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10634707/

[14:08] <cfhowlett> lulzer, you have to actually ASK a question to get an answer TO a question
[14:08] <rubas> Hello guys, when I boot up my system it says it failed to initiate RAID (in red) - but I still get into the system - does anyone know how I can check if RAID is setup correctly?
[14:08] <lulzer> cfhowlett: ok so my question is how I can install the haskell
[14:08] <bazhang> !find haskell
[14:08] <Pici> lulzer: haskell-platform looks like it might be the best package to start with.
[14:08] <k1l_> !info ghc
[14:09] <k1l_> install that.
[14:09] <Pici> !info haskell-platform
[14:09] <Pricey> lulzer2: sudo apt-get install haskell-platform
[14:09] <lulzer> install haskell-platform?
[14:09]  * Pici shrugs
[14:09] <lulzer> but I need for ubuntu
[14:09] <Pricey> lulzer2: apt-get is the program that manages packages. It's what you were missing before the word install.
[14:09] <lulzer> not debian
[14:09] <lulzer2> get gentoo dude
[14:09] <realnot> here the logs: http://dpaste.com/386AG73
[14:09] <Pricey> lulzer2: Ubuntu uses apt too.
[14:09] <cfhowlett> !behelpuful | lulzer2,
[14:10] <k1l_> lulzer2: lulzer stop that trolling.
[14:10] <cfhowlett> !behelpful | lulzer2,
[14:10] <lulzer> k1l_: what trolling man?
[14:12] <lulzer> it no work
[14:13] <SchrodingersScat> halfbeing: not sure then :/ and this is from chrome?
[14:13] <Pici> lulzer: what happens instead?
[14:14] <lulzer> Pici: I get no such file founf
[14:14] <SchrodingersScat> halfbeing: there are mime-type settings, etc, but not sure what would be settings for directories
[14:14] <Pici> lulzer: What exactly are you typing?
[14:15] <stobix> Is there a log somewhere on which packages I`ve updated? The latest xorg packages destroyed my X.
[14:16] <lulzer> Pici: I typed apt-get haskell-platform
[14:16] <lulzer> install yeah
[14:16] <Pici> stobix: /var/log/apt/history.log and  /var/log/dpkg.log
[14:16] <lulzer> and now I get -bash: apt-get: kommandot finns inte
[14:16] <Pici> lulzer: apt-get install haskell-platform ?
[14:16] <lulzer> Pici: yes
[14:16] <Pici> lulzer: What does cat /etc/issue say?
[14:17] <lulzer> Pici: it is This is \n.\O (\s \m \r) \t
[14:17] <stobix> Pici: thanks.
[14:17] <cfhowlett> stobix, dpkg -l has your install logs
[14:17] <Pici> lulzer: Are you running Ubuntu?
[14:18] <halfbeing> SchrodingersScat: yes, this is for chrome. i believe the mime setting is x-directory/normal if i am not mistaken.
[14:18] <lulzer> Pici: yes
[14:18] <cfhowlett> stobix, but there's a more complete version of the command to list "installed by" date or what have your.  you could also dpkg -l | grep SOMETHING
[14:18] <halfbeing> SchrodingersScat: but i don't know where to go to change it.
[14:18] <Pici> lulzer: What about the output of lsb_release -d
[14:19] <stobix> cfhowlett: dpkg -l seems to simlpy list all packages I have installed
[14:19] <lulzer> Pici: it prints Description:	Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS
[14:20] <EriC^^> stobix: /var/log/apt/history.log
[14:20] <SchrodingersScat> halfbeing: oops, mine is distro specific, xfce4-mime-settings, so that probably helps you 0, but there's possibly something similar if you're in unity.
[14:21] <k1l_> lulzer: your system is a gentoo. so stop playing in here and seek the gentoo support if you need help. thanks
[14:21] <EriC^^> what a lulzer
[14:21] <lulzer> k1l_: no I have ubuntu
[14:21] <EriC^^> :P
[14:22] <lulzer> this is my system: Linux sv20 3.13.0-44-generic #73~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 17 00:39:15 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[14:23] <newbehelper> lulzer: what's your problem?
[14:23] <newbehelper> How can I help
[14:23] <lulzer> newbehelper: I want haskell to install
[14:23] <lulzer> pls
[14:24] <newbehelper> lulzer: You are on Ubuntu. Is that correct?
[14:24] <lulzer> newbehelper: yes, I have late ubuntu
[14:24] <newbehelper> lulzer: Very good
[14:24] <lulzer> newbehelper: yes, but how install
[14:24] <lulzer> ?
[14:25] <bazhang> !apt-get | lulzer
[14:25] <bazhang> apt-cache search haskell lulzer
[14:25] <bazhang> lulzer, fine the appropriate package then install
[14:25] <lulzer> bazhang: I try but no command found
[14:26] <bazhang> lulzer, pastebin your sources.list

[14:33] <EriC^^> lulzer: type apt-get install ghc
[14:33] <k1l_> this channel is for helping ubuntu users with technical issues and not for you guys to play around while waisting volunteers time.
[14:33] <lulzer> EriC^^: ok I try
[14:33] <stobix> huh? blocking newbehelper for making a joke?
[14:34]  * stobix will be sure not to joke in this channel....
[14:34] <k1l_> stobix: malicouse commands in a beginners help channel is not a joke. intentionall trolling neither
[14:34] <k1l_> *malicious
[14:35] <stobix> althouh, he was kinda right. rm -rf /lib32 and a bunch other would`ve made me 'uninstall' my programs. kinda.
[14:35]  * stobix doubt it would`ve helped, though.
[14:35] <EriC^^> you think?
[14:35] <EriC^^> :D
[14:35] <stobix> ;)
[14:36] <EriC^^> apt-get -s --purge *:i386 might help
[14:36] <EriC^^> run it with -s so it does a dry run so you see what it'll remove
[14:36] <EriC^^> *purge
[14:37] <stobix> Problem is, I need 'sufficiently bleeding edge' x drivers to be able to use primus and play all the nice games.  It apparently recognizes neither -s nor any of the long forms (--simulate, --just-print, ...)
[14:41] <stobix> I guess I`ll simply deem i386 as crap to begin with and uninstall it.
[14:41] <stobix> ...apt-get seems unable to understand --purge
[14:41] <stobix> something is WRONG.
[14:42] <ns777> blackjid: try this - sudo apt-get install dbus
[14:42] <EriC^^> stobix: --purge has to be run with remove..
[14:42] <EriC^^> stobix: i've got another idea
[14:43] <stobix> ah. not --purge, but purge
[14:43] <EriC^^> stobix: get the list of i386 packages from dpkg -l and use them with apt
[14:44] <EriC^^> stobix: dpkg -l | awk '$4 ~ /i386/ {print $2}' | xargs sudo apt-get -s purge
[14:44] <blackjid> thanks! ns777 I just found the problem   I was doing that, but the packages wasn't found. I just realize that I had removed the listing with rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* /tmp/* /var/tmp/* \   to clean up a docker image... :) thanks anyway!
[14:44] <stobix> Oh. `s been a while since I saw awk.
[14:46] <stobix> Hm. Coming to think of it, I might start with downgrading the crazy drivers to see if that helps. If that fails, removing i386 might help.
[14:46] <YamakasY> is it still needed to grab the svn packages from WNADISCO ?
[14:46] <YamakasY> *wandisco
[14:50] <stobix> EriC^^: how would I downgrade a (cluster of) package(s) until it/(they) work? Is there a way to get the versions available for a package somewhere? aptitude versions <package> only gives me the latest from each repo, I think.
[14:52] <EriC^^> stobix: apt-cache show <package>
[14:52] <ns777> shutdown menu item does'n work as expected. I'm on ubuntu 14.04.
[14:57] <mistawright> hey guys i was updating my beaglebone black and it keeps freezing on when building the man pages database. Is there anyway i can purge the man page database or have it skip this step? Once rebooted i have to run dpkg --reconfigure -a for it to start again
[14:57] <stobix> EriC^^: Hm, that seems to show the same thing. Well, sure old versions might`ve been deleted, but ALL of them?
[15:00] <EriC^^> stobix: i'm not exactly sure what you're up to, but you can find old packages in archive.ubuntu.com/pool .. or old-releases.ubuntu.com for older than 10.04 packages
[15:01] <beetlecub> pwd
[15:01] <beetlecub> 2
[15:02] <allenskd> is there a way I could hide the icons in the desktop? I can't seem to find the option. :(
[15:03] <EriC^^> allenskd: which icons?
[15:03] <stobix> EriC^^: I`m trying to get the intel/nvidia primus thing to work. It worked until I decided to (re)add the xorg-edgers ppa and update my packages to be able to install i386 packages with the same version.
[15:04] <stobix> Now I get a boot splash, but lightdm (or whatever it`s called) doesn`t show up. nvidia derps in my /var/log/xorg.0.log
[15:04] <stobix> Right now I`m trying to parse through the clusterfuck of files that nowadays seem to be the grub config to see if ubuntu changed any boot parameters I needed.
[15:05] <guest-LXDBRg> coucou
[15:05] <guest-LXDBRg> sa va
[15:06] <bazhang> !fr
[15:06] <cfhowlett> !english | guest-LXDBRg,
[15:08] <EriC^^> stobix: did you try ppa-purge? it's supposed to remove the ppa and try to get your system to the way it was before the ppa
[15:10] <stobix> EriC^^: Hm. I doubt it would help. The last, working, version I used was from the same ppa.
[15:11]  * stobix tries restarting into 'failsafe' mode to see if that works
[15:11] <stobix> brb
[15:11] <stobix> (hopefully)
[15:11] <lyze> ohai :)
[15:14] <john-dadis> hecatae, dpm seems to be working
[15:16] <m1dnight_> does anyone hava experience with the vice c64 emulator?
[15:16] <m1dnight_> or a place where I could get some help on it?
[15:16] <hecatae> john-dadis:  good to hear
[15:16] <lyze> m1dnight_: i used it couple of days
[15:18] <stobix> well, vesa graphics seem to work (or whatever it is. I've got X anyways.)
[15:18]  * stobix guesses he'll try googling to see if he can get the drivers to work again.
[15:20] <EriC^^> stobix: did you install the xorg-edgers ppa and then things got messed up?
[15:22] <stobix> EriC^^: more or less, yes.
[15:22] <stobix> EriC^^: I had a version from the xorg-edgers ppa already, and it worked fine.
[15:22] <stobix> EriC^^: Not only that, but any earlier version would NOT work at all.
[15:22] <EriC^^> stobix: ok, and then they updated and things got messed up?
[15:23] <stobix> EriC^^: after doing a dist upgrade, the xorg-edgers ppa apparently got suspended.
[15:23] <stobix> I reactivated it today when I noticed.
[15:23] <EriC^^> oh
[15:23] <stobix> EriC^^: yes, more or less.
[15:23] <EriC^^> did you remove it?
[15:24] <EriC^^> using ppa-purge?
[15:24] <stobix> I'm currently telling ubuntu, via some cutesy menu, to use nvidia 340 instead of nvidia 337 that it used before. It's all graphicy and clicity, so I have no idea what it really does, but hopefully it's what's needed.
[15:25] <stobix> clickity*
[15:25] <stobix> EriC^^: Nope - that would leave my system in a bad state. I think that my current line of thought is to make the system play nice if at all possible.
[15:26] <newUbun_usr> .
[15:26] <EriC^^> stobix: if you ppa-purge xorg-edgers it should get you to a stable ubuntu package list and you could work things up from there
[15:26] <pc24> hola
[15:26] <EriC^^> try the open source drivers, proprietary and maybe ppa's if needed
[15:27] <EriC^^> stobix: right now you probably have updated packages from the xorg-edgers and a mix of stuff
[15:27] <stobix> I'll see if it works with the upgraded nvidia driver I (hopefully selected). If not, I guess I'll install ppa-purge and see what happens.
[15:28]  * stobix reboots again.
[15:28] <EriC^^> hold on
[15:28] <EriC^^> or later nev..
[15:29] <stobix> \o/
[15:29] <stobix> Success. :)
[15:30] <EriC^^> great :)
[15:30] <stobix> EriC^^: Thanks for the suggestions - it's always easier trying to fix these things in someone else's company. :)
[15:30] <EriC^^> yeah i know :)
[15:31] <EriC^^> no problem
[15:31] <stobix> Heh. And finally I have a 'working' skype. (If skype can be said to be working after the m$ aquisition.)
[15:32] <EriC^^> haha
[15:33] <str> hi everyone!  I'm having a problem with apache in Ubuntu. The 000-default.conf  page is being shown overwritting the virtualhost. If I a2dissite 000-default.conf file I do see my virtualhost
[15:33] <str>  What could be the problem?
[15:34] <fernando__> Hi
[15:34] <EriC^^> stobix: which reminds me, i need to boot into windows and shutdown properly to get my files back, might as well use itunes while i'm there
[15:36] <scrapcode> Well, that was weird enough. I decided to rotate one of my screens vertically to try it out, when I changed my display settings I had a regular mouse pointer with a right pointing pointer right beside it. I joined #ubuntu, started typing and it went away.
[15:36] <leeyaa> hello
[15:37] <leeyaa> where can i get example configs for xen
[15:37] <stobix> scrapcode: Seems like you have a zen bug: it cannot be spoken of lest it disappears.
[15:37] <leeyaa> it seems i am missing this file
[15:37] <leeyaa> . /usr/share/doc/xen-utils-common/examples/xmexample.hvm.gz
[15:37] <leeyaa> and other examples
[15:37] <scrapcode> indeeed
[15:37] <ikonia> leeyaa: what do you want ?
[15:38] <leeyaa> ikonia: just looking for example configs for hvm
[15:38] <ikonia> the configs are normaly machine specific
[15:38] <leeyaa> they used to be here /usr/share/doc/xen-utils-common/examples/xmexample.hvm.gz
[15:38] <ikonia> the xen website and documentation has some templates to start you off
[15:43] <MrHacks> Anyone know what happened to the Google Chrome repo from Google?
[15:43] <ikonia> ask google ?
[15:43] <MrHacks> E: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/pool/main/g/google-chrome-stable/google-chrome-stable_41.0.2272.89-1_amd64.deb  404  Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[15:43] <ikonia> seems pretty clear
[15:43] <ikonia> it's not there
[15:43] <MrHacks> I checked my /etc/apt/sources.list.d and nothing was there
[15:44] <MrHacks> Actually, yeah there was something there
[15:44] <MrHacks> But it just doesn't work
[15:44] <cfhowlett> MrHacks, use chromium
[15:44] <ikonia> because it's not there any more
[15:44] <ikonia> hence 404
[15:44] <k1l_> MrHacks: "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d" in a pastebin please
[15:44] <khan_> hey guys
[15:45] <genii> MrHacks: If there are no files in your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ then check your main /etc/apt/sources.list file. PPA are not supposed to be directly put in there but sometimes thay are anyways, especially if people are editing them directly or followed poor instructions
[15:45] <k1l_> MrHacks: and do run a "sudo apt-get udpate"
[15:46] <MrHacks> http://pastebin.com/qinhmspr
[15:47] <ikonia> MrHacks: you said there was nothing in sources.d
[15:47] <ikonia> it's full
[15:47] <MrHacks> Upgrade does OK. IDK why it wants to download OpenJDK because I installed Java from Oracle and put it in my /opt directory, but that's a completely different issue
[15:47] <k1l_> there was a google-chrome-stable update just right now. so maybe a apt-get udpate already fixes that
[15:47] <BluesKaj> genii, are you saying it's poor practice to add ppas to the sources.list instead of the .d ?
[15:47] <MrHacks> ikonia: I initailly said there was nothing, and retracted my answer as quickly as I could.
[15:47] <k1l_> MrHacks: "sudo apt-get update" to get a new fresh packages list from the repo servers
[15:47] <ikonia> MrHacks: it's because it depends on the otherversion of java
[15:47]  * MrHacks wants to find a program that tracks WPS
[15:48] <ikonia> you have way too many 3rd party productu
[15:48] <ikonia> products
[15:48] <ikonia> thats just going to end in problems all over the please
[15:48] <ikonia> you also have mixed repos
[15:48] <ikonia> all from different releases
[15:48] <ikonia> you will be in a mess
[15:48] <mnr15> hello everyone
[15:49] <MrHacks> Me thinks I had my commands backward when I was running "sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get update"
[15:49] <ikonia> I think thats the least of your worries
[15:49] <ikonia> mixing distro versions in your package manager is much bigger
[15:49] <BluesKaj> MrHacks, if you had them in that order , yes
[15:49] <mnr15> my microphone is just not working!!! anyone can  help me out?
[15:49] <MrHacks> "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" is the correct order. but anyway, I got an error
[15:49] <k1l_> MrHacks: yes, first update, then upgrade.
[15:50] <genii> BluesKaj: Yes, PPA should be separated out into their own files in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory
[15:50] <proggR> Has anyone had any luck mounting AFP shares in Ubuntu? I'm getting the "never got a response to getstatus" timeout with afpfs-ng. I've tried installing from a PPA by rjvbertin but it doesn't seem to help. x64 Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
[15:50] <MrHacks> You want the short version or the long version of my sudo apt-get update?
[15:50] <k1l_> BluesKaj: the updater handles the ppas in .d differently than the repos in .list
[15:50] <BluesKaj> genii, ok thanks for the tip , I'll make sure I do that the next time I use any ppas
[15:51] <mnr15> having miorophone/ audio input problem ! anyone ?
[15:52] <MrHacks> Long version it is: http://pastebin.com/ipXNFPCZ
[15:52] <BluesKaj> k1 does that expalin ppas like xedgers creatingf dependency hell sometimes?
[15:53] <k1l_> BluesKaj: no, that is due to bad packages. or more bad depencies set on that packages from the ppa maintainer.
[15:53] <k1l_> stuff in .d gets disabled on release-upgrades, for example.
[15:53] <ikonia> look at the repo conflicts
[15:53] <Tomasso> i accidentally executed instead of cp -r 27 28,   rm -r 27 28   !!, im taking a look at extundelete... i wanna cut my balls with a knife .. any clues ?
[15:53] <ikonia> there are 3 different distro releases in there
[15:53] <ikonia> that is going to cause problems !
[15:54] <ikonia> trust, quantel, precise are all in his sources
[15:54] <k1l_> ikonia: iirc the stema repo is precise only, but works on all releases
[15:54] <MrHacks> I don't have any quantel
[15:55] <MrHacks> And steam is still at precise
[15:55] <BluesKaj> k1 ok so how is the .d sources.list used differntly then the regular repos?
[15:55] <BluesKaj> than
[15:55] <ikonia> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  200 Jul  8  2014 falk-t-j-qtsixa-quantal.list
[15:55] <ikonia> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  200 Jul  8  2014 falk-t-j-qtsixa-quantal.list.distUpgrade
[15:55] <MrHacks> github > binary repos
[15:55] <ikonia> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  200 Jul  8  2014 falk-t-j-qtsixa-quantal.list.save
[15:55] <ikonia> and sauucy
[15:55] <ikonia> and raring
[15:55] <BluesKaj> eeuuw
[15:55] <ikonia> and unstable
[15:56] <ikonia> this is just going to be a package dependency mess
[15:56] <MrHacks> ikonia: yeah, about that. I never could get qtsixa to ever work. Not to mention it screwed up my bluetooth
[15:56] <k1l_> BluesKaj: like i said on an ubuntu release upgrade(do-release-upgrade, etc.): it disables the ppa and just increases the .list to the new repo. afterwards you need to enable the ppas again manually in the system settings.
[15:56] <ikonia> not really sure what thats got to do with anything
[15:57] <ikonia> (the fact that you couldn't get qtsixa to work)
[15:57] <MrHacks> I had a spare PS3 Sixaxis controller. I couldn't get it to work with jack squat
[15:57] <ikonia> so /
[15:57] <ikonia> ?
[15:58] <ikonia> what has that got to do with you having a messed up (in my opinion) package set due to your bad repos
[15:58] <BluesKaj> k1 oh that, I thought it might be soemthing to do with dist-upgrades ...the release upgrades ppa disable feature has been around for a while now
[15:58] <MrHacks> IDK, I got a Logitech F710 I'm trying to set up this time.  SKADOOCH!
[16:00] <MrHacks> Then there is this jstest-gtk thing.  Pitch it?
[16:03]  * MrHacks would gladly start over his linux machine, if I had a spare harddrive, and if I had money for spare harddrive
[16:03] <mnr15> hey my audio input is not working
[16:03] <YvesLevier> Do som1 knows softether vpn here?

[16:18] <FloatingPoint> Hi
[16:18] <FloatingPoint> So many users!
[16:18] <FloatingPoint> How is this even possible on freenode?
[16:18] <trijntje> slipttees: why are you running as root, and what are you trying to do?.
[16:18] <FloatingPoint> MIND == BLOWN
[16:19] <cfhowlett> FloatingPoint, ask your ubuntu question
[16:19] <FloatingPoint> cfhowlett None. Forgive the spam
[16:19] <slipttees> trijntje, Chroot make LiveCD, upgrade and install popular software
[16:20] <trijntje> slipttees: please be more specific, and write in full sentences, I don't understand what you are trying to do
[16:21] <FloatingPoint> Actually, I do have one. A bit controversial: Do you think Ubuntu can ever gain as much popularity as windows?
[16:21] <bazhang> !remaster > slipttees
[16:21] <cfhowlett> FloatingPoint, great discussion for #ubuntu-offtopic channel
[16:21] <genii> FloatingPoint: That's not a support question :) For taking polls or opinions, please try instead the #ubuntu-offtopic channel
[16:21] <slipttees> trijntje, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[16:22] <FloatingPoint> Aye, captain(s)
[16:24] <trijntje> slipttees: ok, and which step or command fails, that did you do just before the error occurred?
[16:24] <stobix> Hm. I seem to have kde only partially installed. kcmshell4 lacks all kwin* dialogues. Any ideas what might be missing?
[16:24] <slipttees> trijntje, use apt-get to install app's
[16:25] <trijntje> slipttees: which apps exactly, and with which command
[16:26] <slipttees> inkscape, openjdk-7, gimp, bareftp, geogebra, tuxmath, vlc
[16:28] <trijntje> slipttees: what is the output of apt-get check
[16:28] <slipttees> trijntje, yes
[16:28]  * stobix finds the kde-full package.
[16:28]  * stobix installs the kde-full package.
[16:28]  * stobix is happy.

[16:45] <Kamuela> I've deleted my swap partition on my LVM ubuntu SSD because i was intending to install winodws. the rub is that nothing has changed and i've given up. how do i turn that LVM unallocated space at the end of the drive back to swap?
[16:46] <Kamuela> i have 16gb of ram so i'd like to have that swap back in place but with a really low (or high??) level of swappiness. basically if computer gonna crash, pls2swapty
[16:50] <MegaManSec> are there any plans for ubuntu to go back to glibc?
[16:51] <jhutchins> Kamuela: Swap on LVM?  Seriously?
[16:52] <Kamuela> jhutchins: i chose the LVM install option without manually specifying anything after that. it basically wrote it as root + swap
[16:52] <Kamuela> jhutchins: then i deleted swap with system-config-lvm but ended up resizing nothing. so LVM now looks like root+unallocated. system-config-lvm doesn't let me choose "swap" as an option
[16:53] <jhutchins> Some hotshot reimplemented one of our NAS shares on LVM and the overhead knocked about 80 web sites off line.
[16:53] <jhutchins> Kamuela: You'd have to resize the LV.
[16:53] <Faylite> #StoriesFromTechSupport
[16:53] <cfhowlett> jhutchins, I have to ask: what happened to the hothead?
[16:54] <jhutchins> cfhowlett: He fixed it and we carried on.
[16:56] <klauss8951> guys.. my gnome 3.12 got completely trashed after i tried to upgrade to 3.14.. i beg for help
[16:56] <jhutchins> cfhowlett: iirc he was able to just revert to the old share then reconfigure the new one.
[16:57] <cfhowlett> jhutchins, I trust ... somebody senior ... provided him with 1:1 training
[16:57] <Kamuela> jhutchins: as an honest assessment, i really don't have to much configured as of yet on this machine, should i just reinstall the damned thing without this LVM nonsense?
[16:57] <jhutchins> cfhowlett: No real need. He learned his lesson.  He has other virtues.
[16:57] <AndroidKris> rypervenche, I'm having another go at fixing my windows boot.   You can always delete it and restore a backup.
[16:58] <jhutchins> !lvm
[16:58] <AndroidKris> I'll ask in general though, anyone know how to repair a missing or corrupt bootmgr on windows from within linux on a dual boot environment.
[16:59] <klauss8951> http://ubuntuportal.com/2014/11/how-to-upgrade-gnome-3-12-to-gnome-3-14-in-ubuntu-gnome-14-10.html <--- the guide i followed that trashed my original gnome.. could someone take a look to see if there's something bad in there?
[16:59] <jhutchins> AndroidKris: The mbr or the bootloader?
[16:59] <Kamuela> jhutchins: do you think what i'm looking to do is as easy as scrapping the idea of using a GUI lvm manager and just finding out the specific way to take unallocated space and make it swap?
[16:59] <jhutchins> klauss8951: I take it "Restore your backup" is not useful advice?
[16:59] <AndroidKris> apparently mbr is fine, just missing or possibly corrupt bootmgr.exe
[16:59] <klauss8951> no :(
[16:59] <OerHeks> klauss8951, reverse the installation of that ppa with ppa-purge
[17:00] <OerHeks> !ppapurge
[17:00] <klauss8951> that's what i did..
[17:00] <jhutchins> Kamuela: Like I said, I know you need to resize the LV to recover the space, possibly something needs to be done with the VG.
[17:00] <klauss8951> and now i'm missing the panels.. and pretty much every keyboard shortcut that.. ever did something
[17:00] <jhutchins> Kamuela: I have not gone very far into managing LVM, I got impatient with the extra layers and just reimplemented the partitions directly.
[17:01] <AndroidKris> brb, porcelain throne time. dm me jhutchins so i don't lose anything in this wall of text while im afk.
[17:01] <jhutchins> I gotta leave for lunch myself.
[17:06] <megaloden> well this is sad. I"m trying to mass donwnload large number of links using uget. And I'm getting the software huge CPU usuage
[17:07] <OerHeks> megaloden, so that is bad?
[17:07] <megaloden> very bad
[17:07] <megaloden> it's not even starting now. guess its uget's limit
[17:08] <OerHeks> megaloden, if this happens when you donwload a single file, yes
[17:08] <megaloden> i have over 6000 1.2kb pdf to download
[17:08] <megaloden> had to log off because uget won't even die. Tried sudo killall uget-gtk wouldn't work
[17:09] <megaloden> 20,000 on queue
[17:09] <AndroidKris> so, does anyone know anything about fixing the bootmgr in windows 7 without a recovery cd?
[17:10] <AndroidKris> dm me if you do and wish to help.
[17:10] <OerHeks> AndroidKris,  not really an ubuntu issue, join ##windows please

[17:11] <AndroidKris> OerHeks
[17:11] <digityuo> OerHeks: sorry
[17:11] <megaloden> anyone know a better faster download manage on ubuntu?
[17:12] <megaloden> uget is just failing
[17:13] <delinquentme> so how does .. ssh identify the user thats attached to a key?
[17:14] <delinquentme> I've got two users on a server  ubuntu and liliya
[17:14] <delinquentme> oh nm... 3.  ubuntu , liliya , and postgres
[17:14] <delinquentme> I'd love to test that I can ssh in as another user ... but I'd need their private key to do such a thing
[17:17] <k1l_> you need the private key matching the public key in the known hosts file
[17:24] <suore> Hi guys
[17:25] <polishpoliceforc> hi guys
[17:26] <suore> is possible send voice from PC to Mic Input instead Hs Output? (i have broken input for heads)
[17:26] <polishpoliceforc> can someone tell me what the difference between libcv-dev and libcv2.4 and libcvaux2.4 are? i'm really confused as to which one i should install
[17:26] <polishpoliceforc> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/opencv
[17:26] <suore> i speak about front input
[17:31] <MegaManSec> polishpoliceforc: libcv-dev is the development files
[17:31] <MegaManSec> see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2358801/what-are-devel-packages
[17:32] <polishpoliceforc> so when wouldn't i want to install libcv-dev?
[17:33] <polishpoliceforc> when would i install libcv2.4?
[17:34] <MegaManSec> are you planning on building something with libcv?
[17:35] <hay207> hi guys, cpufreq won't work correctly
[17:35] <hay207> it is stuck at a certain frequency
[17:35] <genii> busey
[17:51] <polishpoliceforc> MegaManSec, isn't that the point of installing libcv? to compile and execute stuff using the opencv library?
[17:52] <MegaManSec> i don't know what libcv actually is.
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> polishpoliceforc: wouldn't you need libcv-dev for that?
[17:53] <polishpoliceforc> ActionParsnip, idk that's why i'm asking. i'm really confused what the difference is
[17:53] <genii> Packages with -dev at the end are for compiling
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> polishpoliceforc: the -dev packages have all the headers and tells applications how to communicate with the lib, libcv is the lib itself
[17:53] <MegaManSec> " libcv-dev and libcv2.4 and libcvaux2.4"
[17:54] <MegaManSec> libcvaux2.4 will be something different (whatever aux means in this context)
[17:54] <MegaManSec> libcv2.4 might even be a link to libcv-dev(or vice-versa)
[17:54] <nibbler> MegaManSec: cv is computervision
[17:54] <polishpoliceforc> ActionParsnip, hrm... so i would prob want libcv-dev.... libcv would just be for...idk reading the source code?
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> polishpoliceforc: libcv is the lib itself, binaries.
[17:55] <asklepiosa> Greetings, I have installed Lubuntu on my computer, but the problem is that I have my resolution stuck at maximum being 1280x1024. I have nvidia when it comes to video. Do you have a solution for me?
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> asklepiosa: if you run:   sudo lshw -C display     do you also see an Intel GPU?
[17:56] <dian> I got dual monitor setup what shortcuts could I you to shift windows between screens?
[17:57] <ActionParsnip> dian: what desktop are you running?
[17:57] <reza> hi
[17:57] <MegaManSec> asklepiosa: assuming you've gone into system settings and screen display, take a look atadition drivers in software & updates
[17:57] <asklepiosa> it wrote something like
[17:57] <asklepiosa> *-display
[17:57] <asklepiosa>        description: VGA compatible controller
[17:57] <asklepiosa>        product: NV44 [GeForce 6200 LE]

[17:58] <dian> unity
[17:58] <genii> !pastebin | asklepiosa
[17:58] <ActionParsnip> dian: here is a help if you are using Unity Shell - http://askubuntu.com/questions/141752/keyboard-shortcut-to-move-windows-between-monitors
[17:58] <reza> does swap needed in new linux with big ram?
[17:58] <ActionParsnip> asklepiosa: I only asked if there was an Intel GPU as well as the nvidia..... I don't need the full output
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> reza: if you want hibernate, then yes
[17:59] <asklepiosa> Sorry.
[17:59] <polishpoliceforc> ActionParsnip, is that the .so files?
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> reza: depends what you call "big ram"
[17:59] <polishpoliceforc> ActionParsnip, sorry, i am noob at this
[17:59] <reza> no I don't want hibernate
[17:59] <reza> 3GB
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> polishpoliceforc: that could a lib file, yes
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> reza: that's not big dude
[17:59] <k1l_> reza: not necessary if you dont want hibernation.
[18:00] <reza> but always when I see in my pc they don't use it
[18:00] <MegaManSec> polishpoliceforc: -dev will provide the .h files. the header files. perhaps the best way to put it.
[18:00] <k1l_> reza: but 3GB is not a lot of ram.if you would have said 8 or 16, that is a lot.
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> reza: make a 3.3Gb swap and you'll be fine. If you have an SSD and a platter based drive, put the swap on the platter based drive
[18:00] <polishpoliceforc> ahh kk thanks guys
[18:00] <genii> kshitijk: Please change your name not to contain profanity. This is a family-friendly channel :)
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> k1l_: one of our big boxes at work has half a terabyte :)
[18:01] <MegaManSec> ActionParsnip: ?
[18:01] <MegaManSec> isn't 256 the current max that are being sold?
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> MegaManSec: sup?
[18:01] <MegaManSec> i haven't seen any motherboards that support more than 256
[18:01] <k1l_> ActionParsnip: i was speaking consumer pc wise :)
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> MegaManSec: never used a Tyan motherboard?
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> k1l_: oh well..yeah :)
[18:01] <reza> do I really need /boot partion?
[18:02] <EriC^^> reza: no
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> reza: not really no
[18:02] <asklepiosa> So, any solution for me?
[18:02] <MegaManSec> nope
[18:02] <MegaManSec> how many cpus ActionParsnip ?
[18:02] <k1l_> reza: not if you dont use lvm or encryption. a regular desktio setup doesnt need extra /boot
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> asklepiosa: do you have an Intel and an Nvidia GPU, or just nvidia?
[18:02] <reza> so its better to not use any swap?
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> MegaManSec: I forget, but its a LOT
[18:03] <asklepiosa> Nvidia and Intel.
[18:03] <EriC^^> reza: /boot and a swap partition are 2 different things
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> asklepiosa: then look into nvidia-prime
[18:03] <reza> I know
[18:03] <EriC^^> reza: if you want hibernation then you need a swap partition as large as your ram
[18:03] <reza> but I want to install new os and want to know
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> reza: for a desktop system its good to have one, its only 3Gb. How much drive space do you have?
[18:04] <k1l_> reza: with 3 gb ram i would say: make a swap
[18:04] <reza> but in my older os system don't use it at all
[18:05] <robairt> hey does anyone know why my xorg would be using up all my cpu?
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> reza: how much HDD space do you have to install Ubuntu to
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> ?
[18:05] <EriC^^> i'm using 2gb of ram right now and i dont have much programs open on unity
[18:05] <reza> about 30GB
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> reza: so it's not much, you'll be fine
[18:05] <reza> 15/home 15/
[18:05] <EriC^^> reza: and if you want to run a vm you'll need swap too
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> reza: i'd say 10Gb /
[18:05] <asklepiosa> Yeah, I don't know what to do.
[18:05] <reza> for vm?
[18:06] <reza> really?
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> reza: sure, why does that make a difference?
[18:06] <reza> yes for me
[18:06] <EriC^^> reza: yeah if you want to run a vm, you'll have to specify how much ram you want it to have
[18:06] <reza> I want to use matalb
[18:06] <reza> in vm windows 7
[18:07] <reza> so you say use it for 3GB?
[18:07] <EriC^^> yeah definitely
[18:07] <reza> swap?
[18:07] <EriC^^> yeah
[18:07] <reza> I gonna go thanks gus

[18:28] <MonkeyDust> oh cosmetics
[18:28] <xerox> is there a way to tap into 15.04 for that specific package only?
[18:28] <k1l_> xerox: if you dont find a ppa you will need to build it yourself
[18:29] <EriC^^> xerox: you could download the .deb and manually install it

[18:40] <deepfreez> Can I active avast? register
[18:40] <deepfreez> becouse i read about this problem
[18:40] <EriC^^> what?
[18:41] <deepfreez> If I install avast on ubuntu
[18:41] <deepfreez> Can I register free version?
[18:41] <nibbler> i have a feeling of avast not being officially supported by ubuntu
[18:41] <bekks> Thats a question for the Avast support.
[18:41] <deepfreez> :P
[18:42] <nibbler> deepfreez: for free/libre av check out clamav
[18:42] <k1l_> deepfreez: do you want to install avast to scan the ubuntu for viruses?
[18:42] <deepfreez> only for write an article

[18:49] <MonkeyDust> deepfreez  is this useful? it doesnt say whan it was last updated http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-install-and-update-avast-antivirus-in-ubuntu
[18:55] <deepfreez> MonkeyDust :) no .dab for ubuntu
[18:55] <deepfreez> I will write an aricle about clamav
[18:58] <genii> deepfreez: For a graphical interface to clamav, you might want clamtk installed also
[19:00] <deepfreez> not clamav ?
[19:00] <deepfreez> https://bitbucket.org/dave_theunsub/clamtk/downloads/clamtk_5.15-1_all.deb
[19:00] <deepfreez> thanks
[19:00] <jpds> deepfreez: clamav is a command-line too.
[19:00] <jpds> deepfreez: clamtk is a graphical frontend for said command line tool.
[19:01] <deepfreez> I need to install clamav + clamtk ?
[19:01] <jpds> deepfreez: Yes.
[19:01] <deepfreez> thanks
[19:02] <jpds> deepfreez: Otherwise, it'd be like having a car with no engine.
[19:03] <deepfreez> :)
[19:03] <hanlon2> From the command line, how can I find the repo 'flavor' (main, restricted, universe, etc) an uninstalled package can be found in?
[19:03] <k1l_> installing clamtk with apt-get should bring you clamav, too since its a depency
[19:03] <k1l_> hanlon2: apt-cache show packagename
[19:04] <hanlon2> k1l_: aha, the "Section:".   thx!
[19:05] <deepfreez> thanks
[19:08] <ludo> Hi, I have upgraded from lubuntu 14.04 to lubuntu 14.10, before upgrading I foolishly played around with ~lubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/lubuntu-daily, and now X(ctrl+alt+7?) won't start, just shows a blinking cursor. In what logs should I start to look?
[19:12] <ludo> If I run X, as root I get the following error: # cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[19:13] <ErfanBs1> !WebCopy
[19:13] <ludo> !WebCopy
[19:14] <k1l_> ludo: dont run x yourself. just start the lightdm

[19:24] <Z3> Hi, I can't run Android Studio on Ubuntu 14.04: The error is "tools.jar' seems to be not in Android Studio classpath. Please ensure JAVA_HOME points to JDK rather than JRE."
[19:24] <HoloPed> can I make an image of the OS main drive to a USB drive ?
[19:25] <Z3> echo $JAVA_HOME: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-amd64
[19:29] <pavlos> Z3, javac -version
[19:30] <Z3> pavlos javac -version
[19:30] <Z3> The program 'javac' can be found in the following packages:
[19:30] <Z3>  * default-jdk
[19:30] <Z3>  * ecj
[19:30] <Z3>  * gcj-4.8-jdk
[19:30] <Z3>  * openjdk-7-jdk
[19:30] <pavlos> !paste |z3
[19:31] <pavlos> z3, your path does not have the JAVA_HOME
[19:31] <Z3> pavlos java -version: java version "1.7.0_75"
[19:32] <Z3> pavlos echo $JAVA_HOME: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-amd64
[19:32] <hanlon2>  I'm installing a new ubuntu vivd box.  All's generally well -- except when I try to exec 'add-apt-repository ...', I get : "Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding".  I've found a bunch of posts, but no solution that seems to work.  Suggestions?
[19:32] <teward> Z3: that's just the java runtime
[19:32] <teward> Z3: it's missing the actual JDK
[19:33] <Z3> teward, should I install some package?
[19:33] <pavlos> Z3, Android Studio specifically mentions you need to have the jdk
[19:33] <Mitt> hanlon2, as I understand right, on preview releases translations are not ready
[19:34] <Z3> pavlos ok, but /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-amd64 is not the JDK? it says openJDK
[19:34] <hanlon2> Mitt: Hi.  Not sure what that means, or what I need to do.  I just want to add a repository -- and I'm working only in en_US.utf-8.
[19:34] <pavlos> Z3, here's a link to install ... http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/11/install-android-studio-ubuntu-14-04-ppa/
[19:36] <Z3> pavlos thank you for the link. Anyway, is not possible to install the JDK and define some environment variable?
