[00:01] <bprompt> erxr3:    yeap, that's what I was doing, the filesystem was "raw", but yes, ddrescue does a "raw copy" of cluster per cluster, whenever it finds any errors, tries to give it a fix, if it can't be fixed, it skips it and continues, and copies all non-corrupted data it can along the way ,   -d (direct access) -f ( force)
[00:01] <tnecniv> Hi! I am running ubuntu 14.04 with two nVidia graphics cards. One is a 9800 for standard graphics, and the other is a Tesla K20 for scientific computing. After installing the drivers for both, I am stuck in some low resolution graphics mode, as if it cant detect my monitor. Any insight
[00:01] <tnecniv> '
[00:01] <tnecniv> '?
[00:01] <tnecniv> sorry
[00:03] <erxr3> TJ-, so if I have a file named partition.img, I guess I'd need to go to its folder first, and then apply the command like this: sudo testdisk -log partition.dd ?
[00:04] <TJ-> erxr3: if the file isn't owned by root, you could just do "testdisk -log /path/to/partition.dd"
[00:04] <erxr3> bprompt, sure I'd try ddrescue, too. you mean the disk image I created is also "raw" copy?
[00:05] <erxr3> TJ- ah, I see, I will try which one works, thank you very much!
[00:05] <ubuntu_> TJ-, Hoe can a factory rom and entire sytem be backed up before using an android phone?
[00:05] <ubuntu_> s/hoe/how
[00:06] <TJ-> ubuntu_: That isn't an Ubuntu support question. Try asking in ##android
[00:06] <ubuntu_> The last android I bought has been blasted with garbage software.
[00:06] <bprompt> erxr3:    hehehe, nope, that would put you on square one and defeat the idea of the utility =),  the source was "raw", the copy was a "fixed" version of it, with valid partition table info as well as data
[00:09] <erxr3> bprompt, in the command "ddrescue -f -d  SOURCE TARGET" the source is the image's path, and the target would point to the folder where the recovered files would be saved, I presume?
[00:10] <erxr3> bprompt, if they are so, would it be then typed like this:  ddrescue -f -d  ~/Documents/partition.img media/myuser/myrecoveryfolder ?
[00:11] <bprompt> erxr3:    nope, device in this case, use "lsblk" to see who is who, but something like -> ddrescue -d -f /dev/sda4 /dev/sdc3  <-
[00:11] <erxr3> bprompt, but how does it know which image where is to recover?
[00:11] <erxr3> and where to
[00:11] <bprompt> hehe
[00:11] <bprompt> erxr3:   as many folks here pointed out, chek the manpages :), but the arguments order, of course
[00:12] <bprompt> just like "dd" does btw
[00:13] <bprompt> well.. to be fair.. dd uses if= and of= arguments... so...hmmm anyhow. for ddrescue is SOURCE TARGET order
[00:13] <erxr3> bprompt, my source is not even a partition, but an image of it
[00:13] <erxr3> how can I mention it as /dev/sda4
[00:13] <bprompt> erxr3:     that'd do as well
[00:17] <erxr3> TJ- testdisk returned a message like "Partition sector doesn't have the endmark 0xAA55", yet quick search is still possible..does this message have a significance?
[00:17] <erxr3> the message came right at start
[00:20] <TJ-> erxr3: the MBR (sector 0) should end with 0xAA55 (bytes 0x1FE-0x1FF) that's the partition signature
[00:20] <erxr3> TJ- does it point to any failure?
[00:21] <TJ-> erxr3: if it is missing, then the PC BIOS would assume there was no partition table there
[00:21] <erxr3> TJ- would that make testdisk recovery void?
[00:22] <TJ-> erxr3: testdisk should correct that
[00:22] <erxr3> TJ- oh, that is good to hear :)
[00:23] <andystar> I would like to isntall qtractor, but it says that it is dependent on librubberband2.
[00:23] <andystar> I would like to isntall qtractor, but it says that it is dependent on librubberband2.  All I can find in the repositories is librubberband2v5.
[00:24] <TJ-> andystar: which ubuntu release?
[00:25] <andystar> TJ-, I am using Xubuntu 15.10, with the kxstudio repositories.
[00:26] <TJ-> according to apt-cache qtractor Depends: librubberband2v5
[00:27] <erxr3> TJ- there is a menu option that says "Write TestDisk MBR code to first sector"...does this relate to the above missing endmark message?
[00:27] <TJ-> erxr3: yes
[00:27] <erxr3> TJ- should I select it then?
[00:28] <andystar> TJ-, So maybe if I remove the kxstudio repsositories or disable them, I can install the standard version of qtractor.
[00:28] <jeffrey_f> I was upgrading 15.04 to 15.10.  I somehow excaped from the upgrade when looking at a DIFF from a config.  How do I get it to complete?
[00:29] <TJ-> andystar: not sure, "apt-cache policy qtractor" should show the candidates
[00:32] <erxr3> TJ- I chose this option, and it says a new code has been written, you have to reboot for it to take effect..I hope I havent blundered something
[00:32] <andystar> It shows two packages from kxstudio, and one from ubuntu's wily distrobution.
[00:37] <andystar> http://askubuntu.com/questions/92019/how-to-install-specific-ubuntu-packages-with-exact-version
[00:38] <erxr3> trying the reboot
[00:39] <andystar> TJ-, This seems to have information about how to install the package that I want.
[00:43] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> Hello
[00:44] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I put Ubuntu on a usb, and installed it on a partion, and when i rebooted it, i didn't get a boot menu, just straight into Windows 7
[00:45] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> Can anyone help me?
[00:46] <andystar> OmegaLeFoxWolf, From your description, I can not immediately guess the cause.
[00:47] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> It said it installed in the installer, but in Windows 7 it locked up the partion, and it's empty
[00:48] <andystar> From Windows 7 you can't see the Linux partition.
[00:48] <andystar> Have you tried looking at the partition from the USB stick?
[00:49] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I'm not really a tech savy user for stuff like this.
[00:49] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: Grub ( bootloder ) installed to the USB .. likely  . one can boot the liveUSB and install grub to the hard drive . Some Win 7 are UEFI, is this ?
[00:50] <andystar> I mean, boot up the computer from the USB, and see if you can see what is on the partition that you think you installed Ubuntu on.
[00:50] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> BIOS https://www.asus.com/Notebooks/X44H/
[00:51] <profetik777> First version of ubuntu used and impressions. Go.
[00:53] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I'm going to reinstall it, to the certain partion i have made for it (87 GB)
[00:54] <mhmd> hi
[00:55] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: Might be but to install grub. As advised boot the liveUSB and in terminal look at partitions ' sudo parted -l ' .
[00:56] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I'm installing it alongside Windows 7, and i go to the advanced Partioning tool
[00:57] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> What do i put for "Use as: "
[00:59] <andystar> OmegaLeFoxWolf, You can log back on to Xchat after you have booted from your LiveUSB.
[01:00] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I'm on my secondary computer, the one I'm not installing it on
[01:00] <beepie> OmegaLeFoxWolf, you mean the one with "Winbloze" ?
[01:00] <beepie> XD
[01:01] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> Haha very funny -_-
[01:02] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> But i have to reinstall it, i reformated the Partion, but when installing it in Advanced Partioning tool, when i go to use the certain partion, what do i click for "Use as:" ?
[01:04] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, eh
[01:04] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, make sure yuo did a backup first
[01:04] <binkydaclown> :)
[01:04] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, you can use "/"
[01:04] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, ext3 or ext4
[01:05] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, i'm assuming you know at least something about partitioning
[01:05] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I just don't know what system to use it as
[01:08] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBCHsgry2RQ
[01:08] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: As you hane manually partitioned. did you provide a /swap partion ?
[01:09] <Bashing-om> hane/have*
[01:09] <erxr3> can you help me know if this command is correct please:  "ddrescue -n --no-split ~/Documents/partition.img /dev/sdc2/recovery" , given that the destination drive is  /dev/sdc2, and the recovered files will be collected in the folder named "recovery" ?
[01:10] <erxr3> sorry, adding logfile, too: ddrescue -n --no-split ~/Documents/partition.img /dev/sdc2/recovery  logfile
[01:10] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> No i didn't make a swap partion
[01:12] <erxr3> or like this: ddrescue -n --no-split ~/Documents/partition.img /dev/sdc2/recovery  partition.log
[01:12] <erxr3> ?
[01:13] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: How much ram ? and do you intend to be able to hibernate in ubuuntu ?
[01:14] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> 2 gigs of ram, Yes
[01:16] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: Then a /swap partition is required, slightly larger than installed ram in size . Be aware there is a 4 primary partition limit . You may be hitting this limit if you have not made up an 'extended' partition .
[01:19] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I have Windows 7 partion, Android, And Ubuntu (and another one by windows i cant delete)
[01:21] <zykotick9> Bashing-om: <sidenote> i'd suggest not refering to swap as /swap.  Swap is not actually mounted to the root / partition...
[01:24] <Bashing-om> zykotick9: Open to education.. as 'swap' is in fact a partition, is it not proper to refer to it as '/swap' - with the leading / denoteing it as a partition ?
[01:26] <zykotick9> Bashing-om: swap is a partition yes, but it's not "mounted" it's swapon/swapoff - there is no /swap directory...  /foo/bar suggests a obsolute path, swap doesn't have one...
[01:26] <erxr3> hello, I cannot find nowhere any clear information on how I will use ddrescue on a "disk image" to recover them in a "folder"  on "another drive"..already complex as it is, when I look for these particular aspects, the search gives no results.
[01:26] <Razzdoll> hi all
[01:27] <Bashing-om> zykotick9: K :)
[01:28] <Razzdoll> everytime i run a program or command its a bit laggy. would it be my hardware?
[01:30] <Razzdoll> and when i go on a website. the browser tells me a site isnt found or network unreachable. but i think its just the browser
[01:31] <Bashing-om> Razzdoll: Possible, how nuch ram and what desktop environment are you running ? There are minimum requirements .
[01:34] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I reinstalled it, and it boots up into a purple boot menu with several options the first being Ubuntu and the last being Windows 7
[01:36] <Razzdoll> Bashing-om, Gnome 3.14.1, i5 3.20ghz, 15992 ram.
[01:36] <erxr3> can you please tell me if ddrescue is just for creating the copy of a drive as an image file, or does it also actively recover files?
[01:37] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: you can use photorec for data recovery
[01:37] <Bashing-om> Razzdoll: Should fly. I expect that is 16 Gigs ram .
[01:38] <erxr3> lotuspsychje, I tried testdisk, which is basically the same. and I tried testdisk on the disk image I created by ddrescue. ye
[01:38] <Razzdoll> Bashing-om,  something is strange then. maybe its the software I use. Idk
[01:38] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: yep photorec is part of testdisk
[01:39] <erxr3> yet I was told that ddrescue could be better than testdisk. and up to now, I didnt understand if ddrescue is just for disk imaging or to rescue files actively
[01:39] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: didnt test ddrescue myself, is it added by ppa?
[01:40] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: i got good experiences with photorec, and recovered data from far away ages with it
[01:40] <Bashing-om> Razzdoll: " network unreachable " is this all the time in your browser ? Does ' ping -c3 ubuntu.com ' complete ?
[01:40] <erxr3> and nowhere it is clear. all you see is this general expression: "ddrescue parameter source target logfile"..this is what I used to create disk image.
[01:42] <erxr3> yes, photorec and testdisk helped me a lot, too..but in this case either the image file is empty, or I need another tool
[01:43] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: why do you want to recover data from an image and not the whole hd?
[01:43] <jonta> Seems that after a recent dist-upgrade to 14.10, I can't install anything else. I suspect initscripts is at fault. Attempt at installing traceroute: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/13054360/
[01:43] <Jonta> Where do I go from here? :)
[01:44] <erxr3> lotuspsychje, I dont want to touch the original drive.
[01:45] <lotuspsychje> Jonta: 14.10 is end of life
[01:45] <lotuspsychje> Jonta: install a version from topic please
[01:46] <Jonta> lotuspsychje: Tried. Also doesn't work.
[01:46] <lotuspsychje> Jonta: a clean install is advise from here
[01:46] <Jonta> :/
[01:46] <Na3iL> Hey I've a problem with vim, when I type vim in the terminal it doesn"t open
[01:46] <Jonta> No simple rollback in initscripts-version then?
[01:46] <Jonta> Or manual install?
[01:46] <lotuspsychje> !eolupgrade | Jonta or try this
[01:46] <Na3iL> in the other hand I can open vi & vim.tiny
[01:47] <Jonta> lotuspsychje: Thanks
[01:47] <lotuspsychje> Na3iL: the #vim guys surely know :p
[01:48] <Na3iL> Okay thanks lotuspsychje
[01:49] <Razzdoll> Bashing-om, yes. I mean, when I enter an address, it goes, but sometimes the browser says Not Found or Unreachable, and then it proceeds.
[01:51] <erxr3> so my question basically is; I created a disk image with ddrescue, and tried testdisk on it. it didnt work and because I also heard that ddrescue can recover files, I want to try that. but I see that it has the same command line format that I used for creating disk image. does ddrescue really recover lost files, too, or does it just create disk images? if former, then how can I adjust the command to recover files from a dis
[01:51] <erxr3> k image to an external drive?
[01:59] <tsimonq2> I need some help...I screwed up...I deleted everything except for folder contents in /etc/apt

[03:15] <fusioned> daemon - yeah? im running it on my C
[03:15] <wafflejock> ubuntu hi
[03:15] <Abe> wafflejock: I know until 2019 ;) I think I'll skip 16.04
[03:15] <fusioned> Toshiba Chromebook 2 and love it. think i might delete Chrome OS and reinstall Trusty
[03:16] <fusioned> keyboard's a lil small tho
[03:16] <wafflejock> Abe: ah thought you were saying it's no longer supported
[03:16] <daemon_pid_007> can anyone guide me to writing a food daemon
[03:16] <Guest39901> how do I get root permission from a ubuntu live CD , i've ubuntu installed on my pc.
[03:16] <Abe> wafflejock: No i was saying it's longer supported
[03:16] <wafflejock> ah gotcha
[03:16] <Abe> then 12.04
[03:16] <daemon_pid_007> guest use paswd root command
[03:17] <Guest39901> How do I loginas root from a live CD?
[03:17] <Abe> Guest39901: sudo su ?
[03:17] <daemon_pid_007> abbe, wafflejock thanks i think i'am joing to stick with 14.04
[03:17] <tonyyarusso> sudo -i, not sudo su...
[03:17] <inteus> never sudo su
[03:18] <Guest39901> ok
[03:18] <Abe> why?
[03:18] <zeon98> Anyone got time to help me out please,   i would like to limit internet traffic to my home server between midnight and 6 am.  From what i have tried i can only limit all network traffic.
[03:18] <Abe> idk I didn't use live cd for a very long time
[03:18] <daemon_pid_007> sudo su will ask for root password which is not setup, but if you set it up then sudo su is not bad at all
[03:18] <zeon98> Any help would be amazing. thank you
[03:18] <wafflejock> zeon98: what have you tried exactly?
[03:18] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: You mean you want it to be unlimited for communication with other machines in your house?
[03:19] <wafflejock> zeon98: you might be able to make use of squid3 to proxy and therefore limit access not sure though
[03:19] <wafflejock> maybe some easier way with a cron script and iptables or something though
[03:20] <zeon98> I want to allow a server at my home to use full internet bandwidth during the night, but limit that usage during the day
[03:20] <Abe> does 16.04 ships with Mir instead of X.org ??
[03:20] <tonyyarusso> Abe: 16.04 doesn't exist yet.
[03:20] <Abe> well when it comes out
[03:20] <daemon_pid_007> squid is the best, there are pluggins which will help you limit and control network traffic and also monito it, downside you will have to dedicate a computer for this purpose and have all your network traffic pass through this computer
[03:21] <tonyyarusso> Abe: Ask after feature freeze :)
[03:21] <wafflejock> zeon98: suppose you could use this and have a cron script that changes the settings http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man8/wondershaper.8.html
[03:21] <Abe> tonyyarusso: what do you mean?
[03:21] <zeon98> tried a few things like wondershaper
[03:21] <daemon_pid_007> when is 16.04 releasing though, i always keep wondering????
[03:21] <edd> wow Ubuntu 15.10 rocks
[03:21] <edd> really cool
[03:21] <edd> never used Ubuntu before
[03:21] <Abe> April 2016
[03:21] <inteus> edd: do you have a support question?
[03:21] <wafflejock> edd: heh was about to ask what you upgraded from :)
[03:21] <tonyyarusso> Abe: That would be the point when it's been decided what's in and what's out for the release.
[03:22] <daemon_pid_007> edd you will just love ubuntu just give it a try
[03:22] <tonyyarusso> daemon_pid_007: 16 = 2016, 04 = April
[03:22] <wafflejock> edd: if you don't have support issues join #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat
[03:22] <zeon98> The problem i have is i want to always use full local bandwidth,
[03:22] <edd> I had Fedora 22..which sucked
[03:22] <wafflejock> zeon98: just want to limit internet traffic?
[03:22] <zeon98> yeah
[03:22] <edd> wafflejock, I wanted to know how I could change the default theme? and if there were some cool themes you guys could recommend?
[03:22] <wafflejock> zeon98: yeah think maybe squid is the way to go then
[03:22] <zeon98> everything i try limits all traffic
[03:23] <daemon_pid_007> tonyyarusso, wow i never new the secret code
[03:23] <wafflejock> zeon98: squid proxy can just be for internet traffic
[03:23] <daemon_pid_007> amazing
[03:23] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: So what have you been doing so far?  This could be done with pretty basic iptables rules, where you just have different rules for your subnet and everything else.
[03:23] <daemon_pid_007> any guys using netgear nighthawk r7000
[03:23] <zeon98> squid is quite complex, i cant believe theres not an easier solution
[03:24] <tonyyarusso> There is.  iptables rate limiting.
[03:24] <wafflejock> oh huh
[03:24] <daemon_pid_007> zeon98: squid is by far the easiest solutions on the market
[03:24] <xieyi> I am using kubuntu 15.10
[03:25] <wafflejock> edd: personally use the gnumix icons but running Ubuntu Gnome since I'm a fan of gnome, dunno about Unity themes really though
[03:25] <xieyi> the sddm always crash on boot
[03:25] <zeon98> Everytime i use squid i fail
[03:25] <xieyi> now I have to change to lightdm
[03:25] <daemon_pid_007> xubuntu is the best for running in virtual machines
[03:25] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: Am I invisible?
[03:25] <edd> wafflejock, is it Gnome 3?
[03:25] <wafflejock> edd: yeah
[03:25] <zeon98> tonyyarusso: you say i should be able to do it using iptables?
[03:25] <xieyi> but lightdm stucks too
[03:25] <edd> wafflejock, I like Gnome 3 too.. how do I then switch to that window manager?
[03:26] <xieyi> I found the new version is very unstable
[03:26] <wafflejock> edd: a few versions back from the latest so doesn't have all the animations in the menu and notifications still in the silly bottom tray but pretty good
[03:26] <wafflejock> edd: you can install the gnome-desktop package the logout and can login to gnome session from the drop down list but personally tried it out for a few days then re-installed with Ubuntu Gnome distro disk
[03:26] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: Yup.  There's a time module for that restriction, and a module for rate-limiting, so you just combine those two, and have a rule that matches and allows your LAN traffic with higher precedence than the one for the rest.
[03:26] <edd> I keep hitting the top left corner to bring up the search here :)
[03:26] <wafflejock> edd: https://ubuntugnome.org/
[03:27] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/iptables-for-restricting-access-by-time-of-day.html has some stuff on the time bit
[03:27] <Abe> xieyi: I installed kubuntu on top of my ubuntu system with apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, and just left it like that... I think kubuntu runs a lot more stable that way
[03:28] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/163657/set-packet-rate-limit-via-iptables has some stuff about the limit module
[03:28] <edd> wafflejock, is Ubuntu Gnome a different ubuntu flavor?
[03:29] <edd> it looks like I will have to create a new usb loader for it?
[03:29] <zeon98> i can limit all traffic tonyyarusso but cant internet and local, when googling what should i type to get on the right tracks if that makes sense?
[03:30] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: Just make your first rule match the local subnet an accept, and the second rule be the rate-limiting one.
[03:30] <xieyi> Abe: that requires a lot of space. I am using an old laptop.
[03:30] <daemon_pid_007> Anyone prefer pure Debian over ubuntu
[03:30] <xieyi> I will try that anyway thx
[03:30] <xieyi> looking forward to a better solution to the problem of sddm
[03:31] <Abe> xieyi: well yes but I have more than 2 terrabyte of space so... I'm using a newer laptop 3rd gen
[03:31] <daemon_pid_007> How to install ubuntu on Macbook pro early 2015 13 inch
[03:31] <Abe> xieyi: how much HD space do you have? it's just a few hundred MB i think
[03:31] <daemon_pid_007> ???
[03:32] <daemon_pid_007> Does ubuntu run well on a macbook
[03:32] <daemon_pid_007> I need help installing ubuntu on a macbook pro 2015
[03:33] <xieyi> Abe: my hd space can afford an extra desktop manager. just want a better solution.
[03:33] <edd> wafflejock, can I create a bootable usb for Ubuntu gnome using live-usb-creator?
[03:33] <VergilPrime> sorry :S
[03:34] <icansmellyou> daemon_pid_007, see if this helps. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro
[03:34] <zeon98> tonyyarusso: how do i understand internet traffic against local traffic?
[03:34] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: By IP address.
[03:34] <tonyyarusso> Or interface, if you have it set up that way.
[03:35] <zeon98> that i get tonyyarusso
[03:35] <daemon_pid_007> icansmellyou: have you tried installing it
[03:35] <Abe> xieyi: I think there are just those two ways. you said you use 15.10? maybe downgrade to 14.04 maybe a little more stable for you.
[03:35] <iceyballz> daemon_pid_007: Use virtualbox if you want it up at the same time as OSX, use Bootcamp otherwise.
[03:35] <wafflejock> edd: yup should work I usually USB install
[03:35] <wafflejock> edd: not sure if I just used DD or if I used one of the disk creators last time though
[03:35] <icansmellyou> daemon_pid_007, no i have not but i looks like others have had success in the past. i belive that link will answer any of you questions.
[03:35] <edd> ok maybe I will do it some other time
[03:36] <edd> for now this is ok :)
[03:36] <Abe> xieyi: when you have an old laptop maybe kubuntu is not the right solution for you at all? maybe you should use something more lightweight?
[03:36] <zeon98> there must be a way of saying limit external traffic too x kbs and allow internal traffic to run at max
[03:36] <wafflejock> edd: yeah you can just do, sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop, if you just want to use it for now
[03:37] <edd> I didn't quite get the difference though
[03:37] <wafflejock> edd: just need to logout afterwards and choose Gnome from the menu next to your login box, just if you want to get rid of all the unity stuff easier to reinstall
[03:37] <TJ-> zeon98: yes; apply the limiting rule to traffic ingress/egress on the WAN interface
[03:37] <Abe> I don't like the new gnome 3 :( to much switching
[03:37] <wafflejock> edd: if you do the Ubuntu Gnome distro install it just doesn't have the Unity stuff in there
[03:37] <zeon98> xieyi: puppy linux is amazing with old kit
[03:37] <daemon_pid_007> iceballz: I have viryual installation using virtualbox but the performance is really bad, i cnnot use the web browse in vm so want to go with native intallation, i wanted to know if it supports the touch pad and all the other drivers like the wifi drivers work
[03:37] <wafflejock> Abe: eh I hadn't been using Gnome 2 in a while so was just a new thing to me
[03:37] <edd> oh you mean with this choice I will have to keep choosing between gnome and unity when I login?
[03:38] <wafflejock> edd: yup if you just install the package can switch between em
[03:38] <wafflejock> edd: more disk space though and I have SSD so try to keep it minimal
[03:38] <edd> that sounds cool
[03:38] <zeon98> how do you define wan over lan TJ-
[03:38] <edd> ok
[03:38] <TJ-> zeon98: on a gateway? by the interface connected to the WAN
[03:38] <xieyi> Abe: Yeah the issue becomes more serious after kubuntu requires more memory after recent upgrades
[03:39] <Abe> wafflejock: I like gnome 2 a lot more. My KDE desktop is build like Gnome 2
[03:39] <xieyi> zeon98: thx I am trying it
[03:39] <zeon98> no by the linux server running local
[03:39] <Abe> xieyi: I experienced the opposite since the last kernel upgrade
[03:40] <edd> wafflejock, E: Unable to locate package gnome-desktop
[03:40] <TJ-> zeon98: if you're trying to apply the rules on the server itself, then you put a rule that matches the LAN subnet in the OUTPUT table as the first rule, and then the next rule applies the restriction based on <IP_ADDRESS>/0
[03:40] <edd> wafflejock, you sure that is the right command? or am I missing some repositories?
[03:40] <TJ-> zeon98: the rule matching the LAN sub-net does a -j ACCEPT
[03:41] <tarak_> I am new to IRC. Will anyone help me ?
[03:41] <iceyballz> tarak_: What's up?
[03:42] <zeon98> And that will allow me to limit wan traffic and let lan traffic fully open
[03:42] <tarak_> hello iceyballz
[03:42] <tarak_> how are you ?
[03:46] <zeon98> ?
[03:46] <iceyballz> zeon98: He PM'd me haha
[03:47] <zeon98> just a messer i guess iceyballz?
[03:47] <SemiNus> hi :)
[03:47] <zeon98> hi SemiNus
[03:47] <SemiNus> I have a question, split up in a) and b)
[03:48] <SemiNus> a) is there any mirror still offering deb's for utopic so that I do not have to upgrade even though it's risky?
[03:48] <zeon98> Good way to spilt things
[03:48] <iceyballz> zeon98: I thought so at first, just plainly a first-time IRC user
[03:48] <tonyyarusso> SemiNus: old-releases.ubuntu.com
[03:49] <SemiNus> tonyyarusso, love you for that advice, thank you!
[03:49] <tonyyarusso> SemiNus: You DO have to upgrade, but that will help make the upgrade less fussy.  It is not receiving patches.
[03:49] <zeon98> where did he go iceyballz?
[03:49] <SemiNus> tonyyarusso, so once I have a working  sources.list,  I could then run a  dist-upgrade, right?
[03:49] <tonyyarusso> SemiNus: yup
[03:49] <SemiNus> because at the moment, dist-upgrade won't work
[03:49] <SemiNus> great
[03:49] <SemiNus> thank you so much!
[03:50] <Abe> SemiNus: dist-upgrade doesn't work ?
[03:50] <Bluefoot> I installed Ubuntu and it deleted my windows 7
[03:50] <SemiNus> Abe, not at the moment
[03:50] <tonyyarusso> !eol | SemiNus, see alos
[03:50] <tonyyarusso> *also
[03:50] <iceyballz> zeon98: Still chatting me, asking how to find interested channels, etc. Total new guy haha
[03:50] <luketheduke0> Bluefoot, that's great news!
[03:51] <Abe> SemiNus: whats your version what does your Pc spit out if you do dist-upgrade
[03:51] <Bluefoot> Haha sure is.
[03:51] <zeon98> Nah its a hard swap Bluefoot
[03:51] <SemiNus> Abe, dist-upgrade only offers to upgrade a few packages (10ish)
[03:51] <Bluefoot> Ubuntu is also not installed
[03:51] <zeon98> Are you sure you wiped windows Bluefoot,
[03:52] <SemiNus> tonyyarusso, I can only find CD images there
[03:52] <iceyballz> Hey all, what is the best way for a web guy (ruby and rails) to develop a desktop app using html5 etc and wrappin it?
[03:52] <Bluefoot> Yes, a boot menu shows, but if you boot Ubuntu "File not found" Windows: BOOTMGR is missing
[03:52] <Abe> SemiNus: get the ubuntu source.list do an apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[03:52] <TJ-> SemiNus: you edit /etc/apt/sources.list and use old-releases.ubuntu.com in place of the current archive.ubuntu.com or whatever is there
[03:53] <SemiNus> oh I see
[03:53] <SemiNus> thx!
[03:53] <zeon98> If i recall correctly if you havent deleted the OS, the should be able to use bootmgr to repair and dual boot both
[03:53] <tonyyarusso> SemiNus: where?
[03:53] <Bluefoot> i kinda formated windows 7 partion becuase i selected the wrong partion
[03:54] <Bluefoot> and it ended up not being able to install ubuntu
[03:54] <tarak_> hey friends, why ubuntu don't find my bluetooth adapter ?
[03:54] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: That would explain your bootmgr issue. That means if you want to still use windows you will need to do a complete installation using a Windows install disk with a valid key.
[03:55] <SemiNus> tonyyarusso, got it working :)
[03:55] <SemiNus> thx again
[03:55] <TJ-> tarak_: that depends on the Bluetooth device
[03:55] <zeon98> Bluefoot: look at this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[03:55] <Bluefoot> I can't get a disc.
[03:55] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: Which version of Windows was it?
[03:55] <Bluefoot> 7
[03:56] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: http://www.pcworld.com/article/248995/how-to-install-windows-7-without-the-disc.html
[03:56] <tarak_> TJ,it worked in windows very well
[03:56] <tarak_> TJ, ubuntu is perfect about all drivers except this one
[03:56] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: Follow that guide, but you will need to find the ISO on your own :(
[03:56] <zeon98> what!
[03:57] <iceyballz> :P
[03:57] <zeon98> doesnt sound like he has killed windows
[03:57] <Bluefoot> Haha! Ubuntu works!
[03:57] <zeon98> just hidden the boot record
[03:57] <Bluefoot> i have it on my usb and it booted in finally
[03:57] <iceyballz> zeon98: Said he wipped the actual Windows partition
[03:57] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: Nice
[03:57] <zeon98> Ah i missed that bit
[03:58] <zeon98> forget that link Bluefoot,
[03:59] <Bluefoot> Oh okay
[03:59] <Abe> I quitted using windows since Xp. Didn't like the way Windows was going. switched to Linux and never regred it. Probably will never use Windows in my lifetime again
[04:00] <iceyballz> Abe: Windows 10 is actually decent in some respects, I just use it to play ARK though. The linux client is not great.
[04:00] <iceyballz> On the road: OSX, at home: linux
[04:01] <Abe> iceyballz: why games? PlayonLinux works perfect besides the new DirectX 10 11 or what. but wine will catch up ;)
[04:01] <iceyballz> Abe: Yeah I saw that before. Well get this, ARK has a native linux client. Just does not utilize my GPU as good, very resource intensive game.
[04:02] <iceyballz> Sorry all, off-topic
[04:03] <Bluefoot> running boot repair
[04:03] <Abe> iceyballz: ARK is available on Linux o_O
[04:03] <Abe> ?
[04:04] <iceyballz> Abe: Yup! Go check Steam haha.
[04:05] <Abe> haha cool I was reading Direct X 11 and just told myself forget it
[04:06] <Bluefoot> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13058030/
[04:07] <Bluefoot> IT WORKED!
[04:07] <Bluefoot> it just deleted the boot manager....
[04:07] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: Yay!
[04:08] <Abe> Boot successfully repaired. You can now reboot your computer. :D
[04:08] <Abe> I have to look for ARK
[04:08] <Bluefoot> I'm worried if i should try to reinstall the OS that messed it up
[04:14] <GoldenOrb> Join the cult of the golden orb
[04:14] <GoldenOrb> Put on your sandpaper pants
[04:14] <Abe> thats why I use Kde. Try to let Windows look like that http://oi68.tinypic.com/263ihox.jpg
[04:15] <GoldenOrb> Someone get the luke warm pudding
[04:16] <iceyballz> Like podcasts? Just found a nice looking podcast manager/player called Vocal. Designed for elementaryOS but looks nice and works on ubuntu
[04:17] <GoldenOrb> I have lost members to scientology
[04:17] <iceyballz> !ubottu
[04:17] <Bluefoot> Anyone have a Jailbroken phone?
[04:17] <Abe> hello ubottu
[04:17] <Abe> xD
[04:18] <Abe> going to offtopic
[04:18] <iceyballz> Abe: Later
[04:19] <Abe> Damn I love Twinkies :D
[04:20] <Abe> Later I have to look if there is even anybody
[04:21] <gp5st> I have a usb disk that shows up in dmesg but it doesn't show up in blkid nor does it show up as a disk in thunar
[04:32] <wileee> gp5st, How about lsusb, are you attached tom what's on it, a little context helps.
[04:32] <wileee> to*
[04:34] <wafflejock> gp5st: may want to try lsblk too think that shows any block devices even if they aren't formatted or just check it out in gparted
[04:46] <Abe> I wish I would live in a state where pot is legal :/
[04:49] <gp5st> Willis: didn't show up there either. dmesg shows that it found it then says it disconnects. wafflejock ok
[04:49] <wafflejock> gp5st: if it doesn't show as a device in lsusb probably not going to show in lsblk either
[04:50] <wafflejock> gp5st: lsusb will show any devices connected via USB
[04:50] <gp5st> wafflejock: yeah, that would make sense
[04:50] <wafflejock> just didn't think of it at first
[04:50] <gp5st> always something with usb for me. maybe i'm too rough with cables or something but i always seem to have issues :-\
[04:51] <wileee> gp5st, are you unmounting them?
[04:52] <gp5st> wileee: yes
[04:52] <wileee> gp5st, Figured you were.
[04:52] <gp5st> when i get the chance anyway, every now and then I just loose them
[04:53] <gp5st> anyway, thank you
[04:56] <wafflejock> edd: sorry just saw your old message http://itsfoss.com/how-to-install-gnome-in-ubuntu-14-04/ should have been ubuntu-gnome-desktop package
[04:58] <Ze_> Hola
[05:01] <Ze_> Anybody here?

[05:21] <edd> I am trying to connect my Ubuntu 15.10 installation to a HP printer on the network
[05:21] <edd> is this the right set of drivers --> http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2015/04/hplip-support-ubuntu-1504-linuxmint-17-1/ ?
[05:21] <edd> it says it works for 15.04
[05:22] <edd> maybe someone here can help?
[05:22] <Abe> edd: did you do what the webpage is telling you?
[05:23] <edd> I am downloading the drivers now
[05:23] <edd> but I am not sure if they are the right ones
[05:23] <wafflejock> edd: yeah not sure I'm using the hplip drivers myself but on 14.04 http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=hplip&searchon=names&suite=vivid&section=all
[05:23] <wafflejock> edd: should be able to just, sudo apt-get install hplip
[05:25] <Abe> edd: and did that work?
[05:29] <deper29> so, I'm a bad person and I waited too long to upgrade my system. I'm running utopic 14.10, but it is giving me errors when I try to upgrade
[05:30] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | deper29
[05:30] <deper29> I get a bunch of 404 errors when I do dist-upgrade
[05:30] <cfhowlett> deper29, OR you can torrent the .iso, make a bootable USB and clean install
[05:31] <inteus> clean install is always a good thing
[05:32] <deper29> yeah, I hate doing a clean install :( then I have to reconfigure my whole system again.
[05:32] <inteus> yeah
[05:32] <cfhowlett> deper29, perhaps LTS only would suit you best ...
[05:32] <deper29> I feel that's something that should be worked out some day
[05:32] <kostkon> !lts
[05:32] <deper29> cfhowlett: yeah, perhaps I'll start using LTS from now on
[05:33] <cfhowlett> deper29, 14.04 is current version.  16.04 will drop in 6 months.
[05:33] <deper29> okay, thanks a bunch for the help
[05:33] <deper29> is it recommended I backup my /home and just rsync it onto my new install?
[05:33] <deper29> err, not recommended
[05:34] <cfhowlett> deper29, well, that's one method.  but if you have a separate home, no need.
[05:34] <cfhowlett> !home | deper29
[05:35] <deper29> yeah, it's not on a separate partition at the moment. I'll make another partition and throw it there and deal with that then
[05:35] <deper29> thanks for the help cfhowlett and inteus
[05:35] <cfhowlett> deper29, happy2help!
[05:38] <Abe> I want this! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdHOJiTkcg0 but idk how. :(
[05:39] <lotuspsychje> Abe: no offtopic here please
[05:39] <Abe> lotuspsychje: is that offtopic?
[05:39] <Abe> k let me move
[05:39] <Tundra> Evening folks, I have an executable for a game that simply won't run. Any thoughts?
[05:40] <inteus> !details | Tundra
[05:40] <Abe> which .exe file are we talking about
[05:40] <iceyballz> Tundra: checked permissions for executable?
[05:40] <Tundra> Not an exe Abe
[05:40] <Abe> Tundra: .sh ?
[05:40] <Tundra> iceyballz, I just hit it with chmod +x
[05:41] <iceyballz> Tundra: Just for checking, right click and goto permissions, is your group set for executable?
[05:41] <Tundra> Abe, dunno, just labeled executable
[05:41] <Abe> what does it say if you do ./yourexecutable ?
[05:42] <Tundra> iceyballz, yeah, pretty sure
[05:42] <iceyballz> Tundra: Are you starting it with ./xxxx in term or just a double-click? No errors in term?
[05:43] <Tundra> iceyballz, just double click
[05:43] <Tundra> Abe, that returns: error while loading shared libraries: libglut.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[05:43] <OerHeks> we can start guessing, what is the name of that game, Tundra ?
[05:43] <iceyballz> Tundra: try in term with ./filename
[05:43] <Tundra> OerHeks, uplink
[05:44] <iceyballz> make sure to cd first to its location
[05:44] <Tundra> iceyballz, rever to what I just told Abe
[05:44] <Tundra> *refer
[05:44] <iceyballz> Ah, missing libraries on your system
[05:44] <Abe> I think you need some things
[05:44] <Tundra> lovely
[05:45] <cfhowlett> Tundra, so where did you install this game from??
[05:45] <iceyballz> Tundra: apt-get install freeglut3
[05:45] <OerHeks> sudo apt-get install freeglut3 # and try again
[05:45] <iceyballz> See if that fixes things for you
[05:45] <cfhowlett> OerHeks, eh?    # ?
[05:46] <Abe> Tundra: use the Synaptic Package Manager to install the package freeglut3
[05:46] <Abe> or yes that what iceyballz said
[05:47] <Tundra> ./uplink: symbol lookup error: ./uplink: undefined symbol: __glutRoot
[05:47] <iceyballz> Tundra: Is that after installing freeglut3?
[05:47] <Tundra> yep
[05:47] <Tundra> I ran sudo apt-get install freeglut3
[05:48] <iceyballz> Tundra: ut libglut.so.3.7 and this script in your uplink directory:
[05:48] <Tundra> iceyballz, pardon?
[05:48] <Abe> Tundra: I found that http://forums.introversion.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=33256
[05:49] <iceyballz> Same thing follow that last step I sent and it seems per other users to fix the issue
[05:50] <Tundra> iceyballz, sure, but I didn't really get what you were saying
[05:50] <Tundra> Nor do I know how to make that script
[05:50] <Tundra> well, the one Abe gave me
[05:50] <iceyballz> Tundra: First: move libglut.so.3.7 into /uplink
[05:51] <Abe> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=154937&page=3&p=3396009#post3396009 trying to get uplink running?
[05:51] <iceyballz> Tundra: Second: make a new script in your text editor and paste "#!/bin/sh
[05:51] <OerHeks> nice, we give support for a paid game https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/uplink/
[05:52] <iceyballz> Tundra: Third: Use this new script instead of normal launcher
[05:52] <Tundra> iceyballz, ok, where do I find libglut?
[05:52] <iceyballz> Tundra: http://dri.sourceforge.net/res/libglut.so.3.7.0
[05:53] <Tundra> iceyballz, ok, so now I make a new text file with a text editor like mousepad?
[05:54] <iceyballz> Yup
[05:54] <iceyballz> Either use no extension or .sh
[05:55] <Abe> Tundra: look in synaptic package manager for missing libraries. they mostly have everything you need
[05:55] <Tundra> iceyballz, any specific name?
[05:56] <iceyballz> Abe: he needs it specifically in his folder, not through the manager
[05:56] <iceyballz> Tundra: Nope, perhaps "useme" or "launcher"
[05:57] <iceyballz> Tundra: Then just in terminal run "./launcher" or whatever you named it.
[05:57] <CanberraGuy^> hello, can someone help me with iptable, if I got iptables -A INPUT -s <IP_ADDRESS>/32 -d <IP_ADDRESS>/32 -j ACCEPT , is it mean im accepting <IP_ADDRESS> - <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[05:57] <Abe> iceyballz: well i ment in general to make synaptic your friend
[05:58] <iceyballz> Abe: Yeah he already installed via synaptic. This specific fix unfort makes him manually put it in his folder
[05:59] <Tundra> iceyballz, ./test.sh: 5: exec: ./uplink-bin: not found
[06:00] <Tundra> :(
[06:00] <inteus> "sudo updatedb" then "locate libglut.so.3.7"
[06:01] <Tundra> inteus, and the point of that was?
[06:01] <iceyballz> inteus: Looks like libglut is not his prob
[06:01] <inteus> oh
[06:01] <inteus> duh
[06:01] <iceyballz> Tundra: ./uplink-bin is not found, anything named similar?
[06:01] <inteus> sorry, was half paying attention
[06:01]  * inteus goes back to his corner
[06:01] <iceyballz> :P
[06:03] <Tundra> iceyballz, only similar is just labled uplink
[06:03] <iceyballz> Tundra: file extension for that?
[06:03] <iceyballz> Tundra: or none
[06:04] <Abe> It would be a great Idea to use teamviewer for support ? or not ?
[06:05] <Tundra> iceyballz, nada
[06:05] <Tundra> Abe, to what extent?
[06:05] <iceyballz> Tundra: edit the custom script we made, change "./uplink-bin" to "./uplink"
[06:06] <iceyballz> That should do it
[06:06] <MJ94> Any idea why when I run make > make.log only the first line of the output is logged?
[06:06] <Tundra> iceyballz, ./uplink: symbol lookup error: ./uplink: undefined symbol: __glutRoot
[06:06] <Tundra> This doesn't make any sense
[06:06] <iceyballz> Wait did you run ./uplink in terminal or ./our_script?
[06:07] <Tundra> our script
[06:07] <iceyballz> And you edited like stated and saved?
[06:07] <Tundra> yep
[06:07] <iceyballz> Wow, that is odd
[06:07] <Tundra> Unfortunately that seems to be a recurring theme
[06:08] <iceyballz> Only thing I can think of is the program you are tyring to use is using a different version of the lib, in which case you would need to ask them which version and track it down.
[06:08] <Tundra> christ almighty
[06:08] <iamrohit7> i have my partition layout as http://imgur.com/KFgMXJH i want to decrease /dev/sda1 to 180GB but i cannot seem to resize. how do i go about doing it?
[06:09] <iceyballz> Tundra: sorry bud, tried haha!
[06:09] <Blue1> iamrohit7: have you tried gparted?
[06:10] <cfhowlett> iamrohit7, 298gb if your /boot!!??
[06:10] <iamrohit7> Blue1: that's the image i posted.
[06:10] <iamrohit7> cfhowlett: ??
[06:10] <cfhowlett> get ubuntu USB, boot, start gparted, select partition, shrink partition
[06:10] <OerHeks> iamrohit7, unmount that sda drive, then you can change things.
[06:11] <Blue1> iamrohit7: yup.  it is.  sorry
[06:11] <tase> I've mounted a windows share on ubuntu as cifs, but when I create files in it from ubuntu, they have some wierd permissions in windows, how do I fix the mount to create as 777
[06:11] <Blue1> iamrohit7: you should be able to use a bootable dvd, and re-size it -
[06:11] <CanberraGuy^> hello, can someone help me with iptable, if I got iptables -A INPUT -s <IP_ADDRESS>/32 -d <IP_ADDRESS>/32 -j ACCEPT , is it mean im accepting <IP_ADDRESS> - <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[06:12] <iceyballz> tase: manually set permissions in teminal at top-level folder of the share, set recursive
[06:12] <iamrohit7> thanks guys.
[06:12]  * Tundra sighs
[06:12] <iceyballz> tase: chmod -R 777 /dir
[06:12] <byabbablabb_> careful with that /dir
[06:13] <Blue1> indeed
[06:13] <iceyballz> byabbablabb_: Yeah, tase: only in the dir you want to actually do it it
[06:13] <iceyballz> make a specific one
[06:13] <Abe> Tundra: If you have problems getting it running what is if.. just if you get it for windows and just play it with wine. It got a Platinum rating on WineHq. would be a good workaround tho just sayin
[06:14] <adam__> blackcobra
[06:14] <Guest26836> nice my favorite ubuntu
[06:14] <Tundra> Abe, yeah, that's a possibility. I've just been banging my head against wine all day for other things.
[06:14] <iceyballz> Tundra: or checkout https://www.playonlinux.com/en/ to run windows apps as well
[06:15] <wafflejock> any advice on where to manually install programs I see conflicting info on the net, I just have phpstorm I manually installed but for now had it extracted in the Downloads folder but want to put it somewhere more appropriate, should I use /usr/local/ or /opt/ ? I see some things in both places right now, is there any reason to use one or the other?
[06:16] <tase> I've made the file 777 but it still says I dont have permission to open that file on windows
[06:16] <Tundra> iceyballz, Used it. Just a little tired of pplaying with wine today, that's all. otherwise I'd go for it
[06:16] <iceyballz> trying to setup a local web stack
[06:17] <omgitsmit> wafflejock: my programs are all in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
[06:17] <iceyballz> wafflejock: sorry that was for you, web dev stack?
[06:17] <wafflejock> omgitsmit: from what I read that's just for distro installed programs though
[06:17] <Guest26836> i will try playonlinux verey licke
[06:17] <omgitsmit> wafflejock: when i compile, make and make install - it places the biaries there
[06:18] <omgitsmit> wafflejock: ive seen some tutorials use /opt/ as well
[06:18] <wafflejock> omgitsmit: yeah have seen that for the most part too unless I specify something during ./configure
[06:18] <wafflejock> think I"m going with opt
[06:18] <wafflejock> looks like more stuff is there, sublime_text and a few other things
[06:18] <omgitsmit> wafflejock: lazy admin keeps my stuff in my home folder lol
[06:19] <wafflejock> omgitsmit: heh yeah that's what I'm trying to get away from :)
[06:19] <omgitsmit> you are brave
[06:19] <omgitsmit> god speed
[06:19] <Abe> Tundra: Use PlayonLinux it is very useful. just get the right wine version for each game and look on winehq how other people got it running !
[06:20] <omgitsmit> POL has been hit or miss with me, more miss than hit when i tried it years ago
[06:20] <wafflejock> iceyballz: oh no I already have the web stuff installed, just an IDE that comes as a zipped file you just extract
[06:20] <Tundra> Abe, like I said, tired of screwing with wine. That includes POL and POM. Bout to go to bed anyways
[06:21] <Tundra> Night all, thanks for the help
[06:21] <Tundra> !
[06:21] <iceyballz> Nice, have a good night all, Im out till sometime tomorrow.
[06:21] <jeffrey_f> list
[06:21] <Abe> I got almost every game running I have with PlayonLinux. never had Problems with it. even newer games are running flawlessly
[06:22] <Abe> ok Tundra gn8 still maybe you're doing something wrong with POL ?
[06:23] <Abe> cuz 90% of my windows games are running actually
[06:24] <Guest26836> cobra
[06:24] <Abe> even multiplayer games
[06:25] <Guest26836> .

[06:31] <ElGatoSaez> ./fastboot devices
[06:31] <ElGatoSaez> -bash: ./fastboot: No such file or directory
[06:32] <Abe> Installing under POL is so easy I don't understand how people can have problems with it :/
[06:32] <Abe> it's so easy
[06:33] <byabbablabb_> oonly a couple of games are holding me off obliterating my Windows 10 ssd completely
[06:33] <byabbablabb_> i need my fix every now and then *_*
[06:35] <Abe> byabbablabb_: Ok everything besides the Newest games that require DX 10 or 11... but I've heard that Wine is going to deliver DX 10 end of this year!
[06:36] <Abe> don't know if it's true thos

[06:37] <byabbablabb_> fallout 3 supposedly runs better than on windows - i imagine that modding that would be a right pain tho
[06:37] <ElGatoSaez> nnnnnn
[06:37] <cfhowlett> !patience | ElGatoSaez,
[06:37] <sparrow_nc> hi
[06:37] <Abe> I have fallout 3 and new vegas... never modded it though
[06:37] <wuttttttttttt> ubuntu 12.04 user here, recently made a second profile on the computer, but whenever i try to switch from second(standard) profile back to my main(admin) profile, after typing password to log in, i see the screen flash but it's stuck in the login screen. However, i can move the cursor around and it changes appropriately to where my windows were(cursor changes into text input cursor, window size adjuster cursor, etc) but screen
[06:37] <ElGatoSaez> sorry
[06:37] <wuttttttttttt> ....anyone know what's causing it?
[06:38] <ElGatoSaez> doesn't matter I'm solving it
[06:38] <ElGatoSaez> http://askubuntu.com/questions/133389/no-such-file-or-directory-but-the-file-exists
[06:39] <bait> o.O nobody knows
[06:39] <ElGatoSaez> I love ubuntu, I don't use it because my mom needs office for her university
[06:39] <bait> o.O
[06:39] <Abe> wileee: thx that was also not necessary
[06:39] <bait> doesn't libreoffice support docx now?
[06:39] <sparrow_nc> yes it does
[06:39] <bait> although the review feature of ms office isn't present
[06:39] <ElGatoSaez> Solved! :D
[06:40] <bait> she probably needs the review feature, so no
[06:40] <byabbablabb_> ElGatoSaez: execute permission?
[06:40] <ElGatoSaez> Abe, my mom needs other softwares also like project professional and access
[06:40] <ElGatoSaez> byabbablabb_, I don't know, I'm just following a tutorial for updating phones
[06:40] <bait> o.O
[06:40] <byabbablabb_> ElGatoSaez: or 32bit libs on 64bit possibly

[06:41] <bait> no
[06:41] <bait> ok
[06:42] <nrdb> current my server is keeping 2 kernels (current and the last one) can I increase this so it will keep more old kernels?
[06:42] <cfhowlett> nrdb, no need.  by default, old kernels must be manually deleted.
[06:43] <sparrow_nc> old kernels deleted on upgrade
[06:43] <ElGatoSaez> omg I did it!!! thanks ubuntu, thanks tutorials
[06:44] <byabbablabb_> you can mark kernels to keep i'm pretty sure
[06:44] <Abe> ElGatoSaez: If I need Programs like that I have a Windows 7 Virtual Machine
[06:45] <ElGatoSaez> Abe, yeah but my PC isn't that fancy to run that
[06:45] <ElGatoSaez> I would prefer to wait to have another PC for me and this PC I Will gift it to my mom
[06:45] <Abe> oh maybe you find something similar for Linux ?
[06:46] <Abe> ElGatoSaez: there is probably something out there that can replace it
[06:46] <sparrow_nc> @El  its what I did...
[06:46] <baizon> nrdb: http://askubuntu.com/questions/620266/how-does-apt-decide-how-many-old-kernels-to-keep
[06:47] <ElGatoSaez> yeah Abe but I will wait for my mom finish her study

[07:59] <ulot0> hello
[08:00] <ulot0> join #ubuntu-cn
[08:02] <jscix> .
[08:02] <prg> .
[08:02] <jscix> man, this IRC client is terrible.
[08:03] <jscix> anyone know a good irc client for linux?
[08:03] <Seveas> jscix: then try a better one :)
[08:03] <baizon> jscix: hexchat
[08:03] <jscix> ty, lemme try.
[08:03] <Seveas> hexchat is the usual gui one, irssi is nice for console junkies
[08:03] <jscix> I like both
[08:04] <baizon> or weechat
[08:04] <bait> i'm on xchat-gnome
[08:04] <bait> mmm
[08:04] <bait> can't say it's great though
[08:04] <bait> it's ok
[08:05] <jscix> x-chat gnome is the one im on currently, I dont like it.
[08:05] <bait> why?
[08:05] <baizon> jscix: hexchat is the fork of xchat ;)
[08:06] <baizon> jscix: else you can try kvirc
[08:06] <jscix> the interface is really messy
[08:06] <bait> it is?
[08:06] <bait> only part i dont like about it is you need to use ctrl + u to see userlist
[08:06] <Finetundar> jscix: maybe quassel?
[08:06] <bait> other than that, it's fine as far as irc clients go
[08:06] <adn34> Hello... I want to use fcitx to write in Bangla / Bengali language..

[08:06] <adn34> I'm on Kubuntu 15.10
[08:07] <linocisco> hi all

[08:08] <linocisco> hi all
[08:08] <jscix1> this is actually much better haha.
[08:09] <linocisco> my laptop was installed 15.04 where my D-link USB modem was ok. now with LTS 14.04.3, it is not working .lsusb detected but can't turn on mobile internet
[08:13] <jscix> Anyone know how I show the user-list with irssi?
[08:13] <jscix> their website won't load for some reason.
[08:14] <kavin> Software Updater is not showing the availability of new Ubuntu Version.
[08:15] <kavin> i have enabled notfy me of a new ubuntu version.
[08:15] <cfhowlett> kavin, cat /etc/issue | nc termbin.com 9999
[08:15] <cfhowlett> paste the url here
[08:16] <kavin> http://termbin.com/ts75
[08:16] <cfhowlett> kavin, sudo do-release-upgrade           should get 15.10
[08:20] <kavin> Software Updater says that I need to download 270 MB. I dont want to install updates since I would be installing new version of ubuntu.
[08:20] <kavin> Ubuntu 15.04 \n \l
[08:21] <kavin> thanks cfhowlett.. Your help is much appreciated
[08:21] <kavin> The command works fine
[08:22] <bekks> kavin: Which command do you use for updating?
[08:23] <kavin> Hi bekks, I used sudo do-release-upgrade
[08:23] <linocisco> hi all
[08:24] <bekks> kavin: So do you want to update to 15.10 or do you just want to update to the latest package versions on 15.04?
[08:24] <linocisco> i want to list all files/folders by type upon dialogbox after clicking browse button, it has only "Name", "size", "modified" headings, nothing can be added
[08:25] <kavin> No, I want to update to 15.10 since I wanted to make use of latest Mate Desktop.
[08:25] <bekks> kavin: Then just do it? :)
[08:26] <bekks> linocisco: This dialogbox is shown where?
[08:26] <kavin> @linocisco Which Desktop Environment do u use?
[08:27] <linocisco> bekks, any recruitment website or any website which offer you to upload something from your computer, you need to click, add or upload or browse button and then you will see dialog box to choose file
[08:27] <linocisco> kavin, 14.04.3 LTS. x64
[08:27] <bekks> linocisco: which browser?
[08:27] <linocisco> bekks, firefox
[08:28] <bekks> linocisco: Then you have to talk to the mozilla devs for implementing it :)
[08:28] <linocisco> bekks, it is default on ubuntu
[08:29] <bekks> linocisco: Doesnt matter. You want something which is not implemented in firefox.
[08:29] <linocisco> bekks, ok. i will check other browsers
[08:29] <bekks> linocisco: So if you want it to be implemented, open up a feature request on the firefox official website.
[08:30] <linocisco> bekks, but it is same thing when we upload image on Libre office to upload or insert image dialogbox
[08:30] <linocisco> bekks, meaning not only on firefox
[08:31] <bekks> linocisco: there is a standard interface for applications to use a default dialog box. thats what they do. if you want them to use other dialog boxes, with more features, etc., the devs of every single app have to implement it.
[08:32] <linocisco> bekks, I dont them to implement another dialog box, just to give users a few options like Ms Windows to add more columns in heading
[08:33] <linocisco> bekks, I dont want them to implement another dialog box, just to give users a few options like Ms Windows to add more columns in heading
[08:33] <bekks> linocisco: thats something they have to implement. Devs of every single app, for every single app.
[08:33] <bekks> linocisco: Technically, a dialog box with more options is a different dialog box.
[08:34] <linocisco> bekks, that is actually useful feature and ubuntu is 15.10 now. when will this feature be added on ubuntu?
[08:35] <bekks> linocisco: Whenever you add a feature request on the upstrea, website of every application you want to behave like that.
[08:35] <linocisco> bekks, URL pls
[08:40] <dylan_> hello all
[08:41] <bait> don't be lazy. if you're gonna say hello, use their names
[08:41] <dylan_> dude ?
[08:42] <dylan_> im just popping in alright
[08:42] <bait> and i'm making bad jokes alright?

[09:02] <linocisco> bekks, URL to submit request
[09:04] <bekks> linocisco: that url is different for every single application.
[09:07] <freezevee> can you please suggest a nice irc app for ubuntu ?
[09:07] <freezevee> xchat looks like crap
[09:08] <Klojum> it works fine though
[09:09] <freezevee> yes but the gui looks like winodws 3.11
[09:09] <bekks> freezevee: Just use hexchat or kvirc then.
[09:09] <freezevee> bekks: thanks
[09:13] <bait> hexchat
[09:13] <Veka> \quit
[09:13] <soman> Do I need setuid(0) in my code if the file owner is 'root' and UID bit is set?
[09:14] <soman> As I understand my app will be always run as root.
[09:14] <bait> why don't you test?
[09:15] <soman> bait: Haven't chance now and trying to understand the purpose of UID and GID bits.
[09:15] <sallu> Osirez, Hi
[09:17] <sallu> Any One using ubuntu in uefi mode enabled
[09:17] <bait> are you talking about crond?
[09:19] <bait> what is uefi mode? my comp has uefi and on ubuntu
[09:19] <Ubik_> hello I am considering installing virtualbox  should i take v4 or v5?
[09:19] <bait> take latest version, virtual box tends to allow a lot of features with version changes
[09:20] <bait> including networking/interface improvements
[09:20] <Ubik_> bait: ok anything special to consider ie disk space allowed?
[09:21] <bait> nope
[09:21] <bait> stability sure
[09:21] <bait> but usually not an issue
[09:21] <Ubik_> bait: is 20 gb suffucient space to allow?
[09:21] <bait> yes
[09:22] <Ubik_> ok ty
[09:22] <bait> depends on what you're installing
[09:22] <Ubik_> lubuntu and maybe xfce mint
[09:22] <bait> anything about 5gb and ur safe
[09:22] <Ubik_> cool
[09:24] <shark> Hello! Problem printing, Status goes from "processing" to "stopped", Ubuntu 15.10, printer HP LaserJet M1132 MFP. Any ideas how to fix this ?
[09:25] <cyb3rcl0wn> wow
[09:25] <bait> check if hp has drivers for linux
[09:25] <Klojum> Add paper?
[09:27] <Ubik_> bait: i did not mention virtualbox would run on a windows xp machine does it change anything? (i think you d guess that anyway)
[09:31] <shark> I have 3.15.7 HPLIP, my printer requires 3.10.4 or higher.
[09:31] <qoor> I'm on 15.04, how can I prefetch all the needed files for 15.10 without actually performing the upgrade part til later
[09:32] <qoor> My internet is slow
[09:32] <cfhowlett> qoor, torrent
[09:33] <qoor> cfhowlett, just download the iso of 15.10?
[09:33] <cfhowlett> TORRENT the .iso of 15.10   perfect for slow speed internet
[09:33] <Klojum> Use the zsync tool to update your ISO file.
[09:33] <bait> ubik, i don't know, why would you do that?
[09:34] <bait> havn't touched xp in years
[09:34] <sallu> anyone using ubuntu in uefi mode enabled
[09:34] <bait> i am
[09:34] <shark> Any other solutions for my printer problem ?
[09:34] <sallu> no one is using linux in uefi mode
[09:34] <sallu> bait, ok
[09:35] <bait> it's not uefi mode
[09:35] <bait> it's uefi
[09:35] <sallu> bait, you are using dual boot
[09:35] <bait> and everybody basically has uefi
[09:35] <Klojum> sallu: what's the real question?
[09:35] <qoor> cfhowlett: Is it a matter of simply running the iso file once it's completed?
[09:35] <sallu> real question is i have a friend who is having issue with uefi , he is here , Hi AF_
[09:35] <AF_> hi sallu
[09:35] <bait> ubuntu is signed on uefi
[09:35] <cfhowlett> qoor, make a boot USB, boot from USB and clean install ubuntu 15.10
[09:36] <bait> try 14.04
[09:36] <sallu> bait, you using dual boot ?
[09:36] <AF_> cfhowlett, want to install along side ubuntu
[09:36] <AF_> *window
[09:36] <bait> no, and it doesn't matter
[09:36] <cfhowlett> AF_, ? not following.  what???
[09:36] <sallu> Klojum, you got the point , i explain again what issue i really found on HP
[09:36] <bait> uefi is signed for uefi, it will install without issue even if you have uefi
[09:36] <bait> i mean ubuntu is signed on uefi
[09:37] <bait> some other distributions may not work though
[09:37] <qoor> cfhowlett: What about my home directory and installed programs, will they survive that?
[09:37] <cfhowlett> !home | qoor, probably if you avoid formatting your /home.  certainly if you have  a dedicated /home
[09:38] <sallu> The problem was that HP hard coded the path for the OS boot manager in their UEFI boot manager to
[09:38] <sallu> \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi to boot microsoft windows
[09:38] <qoor> Thanks for your advice!
[09:38] <sallu> is that right ?
[09:38] <Klojum> cfhowlett: FYI, read up on this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ZsyncCdImage   You can keep your ISO file update, and Ubuntu supports it.
[09:38] <cfhowlett> qoor, happy2help!
[09:39] <cfhowlett> Klojum, will do
[09:39] <sallu> bait, ubuntu is signed on uefi ? what do you mean by that ... every OS support legacy mode
[09:39] <bait> uefi only allows signed operating systems to be installed
[09:40] <bait> a lot of distributions of linux don't bother going through the signing processing, it is expensive and annoying
[09:40] <bait> ubuntu does go through it
[09:40] <Klojum> Just put your computer into legacy mode and install your OS.
[09:41] <AF_> sallu, what if i switched back to bot mode
[09:41] <AF_> *boot
[09:41] <sallu> Klojum, you have absolutely no understanding of uefi then
[09:41] <sallu> bait, i tell you
[09:41] <bait> hmmm, i never tried installing linux on hp
[09:42] <bait> i doubt it's an issue even with dual boot though
[09:43] <Alex11223> hi, I have USB wireless adapter TP-LINK WN722N and Ubuntu 14.04.3 in VMWare Player.
[09:43] <Alex11223> I connected adapter to it and when I write lsusb I can see it (Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0cf3:9271 Atheros Communications, Inc. AR9271 802.11n) but wifi does not work, iwconfig or airmon-ng does not show it
[09:43] <Alex11223> I even tried to add firmware to lib/firmware and install backports but it did not help. What should I do?
[09:43] <bait> just go into uefi, set your installation media as first boot option, then install
[09:43] <bait> you do need unused hard drive space to install though
[09:44] <sallu> AF_, hmmmm
[09:44] <sallu> bait, you talking about uefi with secure boot on, which usually doesn't not allow unsigned OS, you are right
[09:45] <sallu> AF_, listen to bait
[09:45] <AF_> hmm
[09:47] <sallu> bait, he has windows 10 already installed in uefi mode, and now he wants to install ubuntu alongside ..
[09:47] <sallu> as a dual boot
[09:47] <bait> make him use wubi
[09:48] <bait> if he's scared
[09:48] <bekks> !wubi | bait
[09:49] <bait> !install
[09:50] <bekks> bait: wubi isnt supported anymore.
[09:50] <bait> oh
[09:50] <bait> never used it, wouldn't nko
[09:50] <motaka2> Hello, I was using ubuntu 1204 on one system it stated not to boot, I disconnected the hard drive and used another case using the previous hard darive and now I see my desktop
[09:50] <motaka2> what should I do ?
[09:50] <sallu> af_
[09:51] <sallu> bait, he tried to use wubi , stub
[09:51] <sallu> where is he
[09:51] <sallu> ahmad where are you ?
[09:52] <Guest87634> hello
[09:52] <bait> he has several options
[09:52] <sallu> what is hellp
[09:52] <sallu> who is Guest87634 ?
[09:52] <bait> 1. use virtual box with ubuntu, slower but has full features
[09:52] <sallu> ahmad are you a guest here
[09:53] <Guest87634> i
[09:53] <sallu> guest use command /nick ahmad
[09:53] <bait> 2. repartition his hard drive or get new hard drive, try installing ubuntu
[09:53] <MonkeyDust> sallu  confine yourself to ubuntu support qsuestions
[09:53] <sallu> MonkeyDust, its related to ubuntu in Hp laptops ?, don't you think that i am also trying to help other people here
[09:54] <Guest87634> Hi I m italian
[09:54] <sallu> bait, yeah i told him to break one last partition in to 3 ext 4 partitions , one for root , one for home , and one for swap\
[09:54] <bait> and before you do anything, try live version of ubuntu without installing, so you can test stability
[09:55] <Guest87634> :http://www.ubuntu.com
[09:56] <bait> motaka, your question isn't clear
[09:56] <bait> is the issue heat?
[09:56] <AF_> sallu, hmmmmm
[09:56] <sallu> bait, but are you sure it will work with dual boot , ubuntu grub handle everything even in uefi mode
[09:57] <bait> uefi dual boot uses boot order
[09:57] <bait> if the live version works, shouldn't be a problem
[09:58] <bait> if something goes wrong, it won't affect windows
[09:58] <bait> you can just format the ubuntu partition
[09:58] <bait> and increase the windows partition to roll things back
[09:58] <bait> assuming you do things right, the risk is low
[09:58] <bait> assuming you make mistakes, problems can occur
[09:59] <sallu> hmmmm
[09:59] <sallu> AF_, hmmmm
[09:59] <sallu> bait, yeah right, i do that to his hp probook and will let you guys know the updates
[10:00] <Dashell> i just upgraded to the latest ubuntu, but when i restarted after the upgrade, all it does is go to the Lubuntu screen, all the little dots light up and the nothing happens, it doesn't load anything else
[10:00] <Dashell> i waited almost 20 minutes and nothing happened
[10:01] <bait> try to run in safe mode, back up all files, re-install
[10:01] <bekks> bait: This isnt windows.
[10:01] <bekks> Dashell: which graphics adapter do you have?
[10:02] <bait> um, there is a safe mode for ubuntu as well
[10:02] <Dashell> i don't know, it was an AMD card, and I mean i can't check because it won't boot
[10:02] <Dashell> it was the xf something,
[10:02] <bekks> !nomodeset | Dashell
[10:02] <sallu> hmmm
[10:02] <bait> oh, now i remember what i did
[10:03] <bait> i ran the live version from usb, backed up files
[10:03] <Dashell> how do i get into a terminal when ubutnu doesn't load?
[10:03] <bait> then reinstalled
[10:03] <cfhowlett> Dashell, read the wiki.
[10:03] <Dashell> and the screen isn't black, it just doesn't go past the loading screen
[10:06] <detha> When trying to do a PXE install on an isolated network, the installer still wants to contact security.ubuntu.com, and hangs if it isn't given access to that. How does one tell it not to try that?
[10:07] <cfhowlett> detha, pretty sure #ubuntu-server has more experience with PXE than this channel
[10:07] <detha> thanks, let me try that
[10:10] <szybki_slup> Hi. I'm trying to install Ubuntu Server 15.10, and I have strange issue. The installer stuck on "Installing the base system | Retrieving libc-bin". I was trying to install Ubuntu on different computers, but always the same issue. I can't download libc-bin_2.21-0ubuntu4_i386.deb even via the browser. The strange thing is, that when I'm trying to do that using different internet connection, it works without any problems. Any ideas
[10:10] <cfhowlett> !server | szybki_slup
[10:10] <MonkeyDust> szybki_slup  there's also #ubuntu-server
[10:10] <MonkeyDust> cfhowlett  was faster
[10:11] <cfhowlett> doubleshot latte will do that to you ...
[10:11] <MonkeyDust> cfhowlett  black coffee with sugar here
[10:12] <szybki_slup> ok, tkanks
[10:21] <motaka2> Hello, I was using ubuntu 1204 on one system it stated not to boot, I disconnected the hard drive and used another case using the previous hard darive and now I see my desktop
[10:22] <bekks> motaka2: So if you see your desktop now, whats the issue?
[10:23] <Niesh_> Hi , i'm using ubuntu 14.04 and want to install dev package KF5 form kde  can anyone help in installing that
[10:24] <motaka2> bekks: I think I have to back up first
[10:24] <Guest13736> hi, where can i find in xubuntu a hardware-check
[10:25] <bait> they only check ram or memory
[10:25] <Guest13736> i want to see what kind of hardware i into
[10:25] <Seveas> Guest13736: sudo lshw | less
[10:25] <Guest13736> because what kind off distribution is correktly for it
[10:26] <Niesh_> kde suggested me to ask in ubuntu form as as the names can differ between them.
[10:27] <Seveas> Niesh_: there seem to be many kf5 packages
[10:27] <erxr3> hello everyone, is ddrescue a tool to create a disk image, on which you can apply further data recovery tools, or is it by itself a tool to recover data from images?
[10:27] <Seveas> Niesh_: apt-cache search kf5 | grep -- '-dev'
[10:28] <Seveas> erxr3: the former
[10:28] <Seveas> erxr3: additional recovery tools would be things like simply trying to mount the image, or tools like photorec.
[10:28] <erxr3> Seveas, I thought so.
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> Guest13736  sudo lshw -html > hardware.html gives a nicer output
[10:29] <Guest13736> Seveas, thanks where can i post the configuration?
[10:29] <erxr3> Seveas, yes, I am in the process of a partition recovery, and created via ddrescue an image of the partition, and applied testdisk on it. but it didnt save any data. this may have to do with that the partition could not retain the data I'd saved there
[10:29] <Seveas> Guest13736: wherever you want as long as it's not in here :)
[10:30] <Guest13736> Seveas,  thats the problem ;-)
[10:30] <Niesh_> Seveas: thanks
[10:30] <erxr3> Seveas, is there any other way to make sure whether the partition contains the data or not?
[10:31] <Seveas> erxr3: I'd mount it and do 'ls' :)
[10:36] <Guest13736> Seveas, there was a link to post the configuration in web and give you a link
[10:37] <MonkeyDust> Guest13736  i think you mean pastebinit
[10:37] <erxr3> Seveas, the problem is, I cannot mount it. as I've told some people here yesterday, I had a file system mess while creating partitions and saving data on them. and I found out that this partition, that I created and saved data on in the previous session, has become labelled as "unknown". yet it can still be shown in the output of fdisk here; /dev/sdb9
[10:38] <erxr3> it is shown as "unknown" like this: http://is.gd/3Vwruq
[10:38] <Guest13736> MonkeyDust,  yes thanks!
[10:41] <erxr3> when I just tried to mount it I got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061785/
[10:43] <erxr3> this was formerly a partition that I effectively cut-pasted data on, and could lock as encrypted. so there must be data there. but testdisk returned zero output
[10:43] <erxr3> even if the filesystem has been messed, the data cannot vanish, right?
[10:47] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  does lsbl show something useful
[10:47] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  does lsblk show something useful
[10:48] <erxr3> sorry, just noticed that I copied the the paste link of fdisk incorrectly: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061765/
[10:48] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, I will check right now
[10:49] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  and sudo blkid
[10:49] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, it gives this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061835/
[10:50] <Kapuh> Hello is there anyone who can recommend a good snapshot back up app for ubuntu ?
[10:50] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061841/
[10:50] <erxr3> the latter paste doesnt display the partition /dev/sdb9
[10:51] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  idd, that's odd
[10:52] <cfhowlett> Kapuh, "back in time"
[10:53] <erxr3> yes, I cant make any sense of this, either. as I wrote, I created the partition and moved files there successfully, and locked the partition after it. next time I inserted it in, this was what I saw
[10:53] <Kapuh> cfhowlett: gonna take a look. 2 sek :) and thanks .
[10:53] <cfhowlett> happy2help! Kapuh
[10:54] <Niesh_> can i get the package name for installing KF5CoreAddons?
[10:54] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  i tried your 'mount' line here, with a non-existing partition... it shows the same error like what you see... from that I learn, your sdb9 simply doesnt exist
[10:55] <Niesh_> I tried libkf5coreaddons5 but its not founf
[10:56] <Kapuh> cfhowlett: exactly what I was looking for, thank you :)
[10:56] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, but, apart from the filesystem, I did transfer 2,5GB of data by cut-paste there, and saw the file transfer process running in nautilus. all I want to do is now to reach the data there.
[10:56] <Seveas> Niesh_: libkf5coreaddons5 exists in wily. Which Ubuntu version are you on?
[10:56] <Seveas> !find libkf5coreaddons
[10:57] <erxr3> whatever happened to filesystem, I can be sure of that I transferred the files there.
[10:57] <Niesh_> Seveas: 14.04
[10:57] <Seveas> !find libkf5coreaddons trusty
[10:57] <Seveas> Niesh_: time to upgrade :)
[10:57] <Seveas> !find coreaddons trusty
[10:57] <erxr3> unless, that nautilus would agree to the file transfer to a partition that seemingly existed but in fact didnt
[10:58] <Niesh_> ok
[10:58] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  and that was to sdb9?
[10:58] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, yes
[10:59] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  try a live session, maybe you can reach the partition from there, so at least you know you have access to it
[11:00] <neil_> I am having trouble with nfs for the last week or so... it works for a while then stops the only thing that fixes it is a power off/on ... a reboot doesn't work.
[11:00] <Seveas> neil_: that smells like nfs over udp and a broken firewall
[11:01] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, would it make a difference? because the partition is on an external drive, I mean, already out of my system
[11:01] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  ok
[11:02] <neil_> Seveas, there is a firewall, I will remove it and see if that fixes anything
[11:03] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, and this happened to two different external drives, where the same partition was created identically. both were created successfully as I mentioned, and both were shown messed in the same next session.
[11:04] <Seveas> neil_: make sure it's stateless and doesn't do deep packet inspection.
[11:05] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  you already tried   sudo fdisk -l ?
[11:07] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, yes, I did: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061765/
[11:07] <erxr3> I can see the partition there
[11:07] <erxr3> visible also with lsblk, but not with blkid
[11:07] <omen> is there statics about servers used in www hosting?
[11:08] <erxr3> when I specify the filesystem, it gives this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061913/
[11:08] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  and visible / mountable in nautilus?
[11:08] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, no, nautilus doesnt show it
[11:09] <bogu> hertz
[11:10] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, also dmesg | tail shows it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061947/
[11:10] <erxr3> but cannot find filesystem
[11:11] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  i have this from a book: sudo fsck -TV /dev/sdb9
[11:11] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, I have zero knowledge of fsck, and I think things get only worse once it is applied in a wrong way, right?
[11:12] <erxr3> I messed things up once earlier with it
[11:13] <adante> hi, i'm on 14.10,  run an apt-get upgrade and it failed (404). is it safe for me to just dist-upgrade at this point?
[11:13] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | adante
[11:13] <bazhang> check eolupgrades  link adante
[11:14] <cfhowlett> for the record adante, you'll need to do 14.10 >> 15.04         15.04 goes end of life in 3 months so  >>> 15.10
[11:16] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  try   sudo tune2fs -l /dev/sdb9 | grep mount     <-- -l simply means list
[11:17] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, it says this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061981/
[11:18] <neil_> Seveas, I removed the firewall, but still the nfs doesn't work.
[11:18] <neil_> Seveas, I have tried to restart the nfs-kernel-server but that didn't fix it ether
[11:19] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  i don't know what that magic number means
[11:20] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, it has something to do with MBR?
[11:20] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  exciting problem, from a technicians point of view... but gotta go now, I hope you find a solution
[11:20] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, sure, thank you very much for all your helping effort
[11:21] <cfhowlett> erxr3, no answers from me either, but I wonder if #linux might know
[11:21] <erxr3> cfhowlett, thank you, I will try there, too
[11:22] <erxr3> cfhowlett, do you think debian channel might be useful,tooß
[11:22] <erxr3> ?
[11:22] <bogu> interest wifi
[11:22] <cfhowlett> erxr3, couldn't hurt.  their response will likely be: "ask ubuntu"!
[11:24] <erxr3> cfhowlett, I see, thank you. I have just found a suggested solution to fix filesystem using testdisk in cases of "unknown" partitions like mine. but I cannot figure the correct one in the list of partitions that testdisk provides. is there a way to identify the right partition?
[11:24] <simonepsp> hello everyone. Someone knows how to expand an LVM thatuses LUKS. I've some free space on my HDD and I'd like to use it. Thanks
[11:25] <erxr3> testdisk only shows their start-end points nd sizes in sectors
[11:25] <erxr3> and*
[11:25] <cfhowlett> I have never used testdisk.  (knock on wood.)  sorry, can't advise.
[11:25] <erxr3> ok, thank you
[11:30] <simonepsp> Someone knows how to expand an LVM volume that uses LUKS? :( I've found an article on the Ubuntu wiki  but it didn't helped me. Thanks
[11:31] <adante> cfhowlett: so i don't have a sources list like shown in the eolupgrades link, where do i go from there?
[11:32] <erxr3> or is anyone familiar with testdisk here?
[11:32] <cfhowlett> adante, if you installed ubuntu, you have a sources.list.   do this:  more /etc/apt/sources.list | nc termbin.com 9999
[11:32] <cfhowlett> adante, paste the url here
[11:33] <adante> cfhowlett: hah coolest way i've seen to get someone pastebin something... http://termbin.com/x9oa
[11:33] <cfhowlett> adante, that looks like ... your sources!
[11:33] <adante> cfhowlett: sorry when i said i don't have a sources list like the one shown i mean i don't have the old-releases entry. also a bit confused as i am on utopic but all the entries there are trusty. but maybe i'm misunderstanding
[11:34] <adante> cfhowlett: yes sorry i meant that it is not like the one shown in the eolupgrade link, not that i do not have one
[11:34] <cfhowlett> adante, so instead of utopic, you sub your distro
[11:34] <adante> my distro is currently utopic
[11:34] <cfhowlett> adante, hey, you have an LTS release 14.04.  why upgrade??
[11:35] <cfhowlett> adante, your distro on your installed HDD ubuntu?  right?
[11:35] <adante> cfhowlett: when i try to apt-get upgrade it 404's, i got the impression that this was because i was eoling but i guess i am mistaken
[11:35] <cfhowlett> lsb_release -a        adante
[11:36] <adante> cfhowlett: thanks, yes turns out i'm on 14.04
[11:37] <cfhowlett> adante, then you're also set to LTS releases only is my bet.  turn that off and go 14.04 >> 14.10 >> 15.04 >> 15.10   OR save time/sanity by torrenting 15.10 and clean installing
[11:37] <adante> so i guess followup question http://pastebin.com/FMshhhy0 - how do i resolve this stuff?
[11:37] <cfhowlett> pastebin is blocked for me here in china.  sorry.
[11:38] <adante> cfhowlett: not sure if that works http://hastebin.com/opemusonuc.avrasm
[11:39] <adante> is this an issue with the au.archive or something else? i considered changing my sources to non au
[11:41] <cfhowlett> adante, I've no idea about au sources, but feel free to try a different mirror.  also, assuming you are running pastebinit, you can easily edit your paste host to ubuntu.  paste.ubuntu.com/13062108/
[11:41] <cfhowlett> if you edit your /home/.pastebinit.xml
[11:47] <adante> cfhowlett: cheers
[11:47] <cfhowlett> adante, ?
[11:47] <adante> cfhowlett: just saying thanks for your help! i'll give that a go
[11:47] <cfhowlett> adante, happy2help!
[11:50] <linux> HELLO

[11:53] <Humorousone> Hello
[11:53] <Seveas> hi Humorousone
[11:53] <linux> SEND FOR ME IMAGE
[11:53] <Humorousone> I'm back with the same flashing window issue I've been having for a while
[11:54] <Humorousone> Is there any way to stop ubuntu from just doing this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/690658/screen-flashes-white-every-few-seconds-15-10-hp-dv6
[11:54] <Humorousone> The bottom copied line of the log is more significant, I think
[11:55] <Humorousone> and hey Seveas :)
[11:55] <huig> hello, i am setting eth0 up but i should be getting an ipv6 scope local addr but i am not getting one
[11:56] <Seveas> huig: how are you setting it up?
[11:56] <huig> Seveas: ifconfig eth0 up..i also tried ip link set dev eth0 up
[11:57] <Seveas> pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces please
[11:58] <huig> Seveas: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13062505/
[11:59] <Seveas> huig: and what makes you think you should get a local scope address without any configuration?
[11:59] <stefan__> hi my flopy do not work
[11:59] <huig> Seveas: as i understand, in ipv6 u get by default a link local address based on the MAC or on some other algorithm
[12:00] <stefan__> Error mounting system-managed device /dev/fd0: Command-line `mount "/media/floppy0"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[12:00] <stefan__> xubuntu
[12:00] <Seveas> stefan__: have you tried specifying the filesystem type? Also, 1999 called and wants its hardware back...
[12:02] <stefan__> Seveas, i dont trie anything because i dont understand
[12:02] <Seveas> stefan__: so what did you try?
[12:02] <stefan__> what must i do?
[12:02] <stefan__> Seveas, nothing installing new xubuntu, the flopy is on dthe desktop - not more
[12:03] <Seveas> huig: you'll still need to tell it to assign an address.
[12:03] <Seveas> stefan__: the floppy you inserted has been formatted properly?
[12:04] <stefan__> yes i'l think so, is wa an old disy
[12:04] <huig> Seveas: and how do i do that?i thought it was automatic
[12:04] <Seveas> stefan__: can you repeat that in english? :)
[12:04] <stefan__> Seveas, ha! another flopy works!
[12:05] <Seveas> huig: either use networkmanager and let it handle this, or read the 'interfaces' manpage.
[12:07] <erxr3> I also got this error when I was trying to restore filesystem via testdisk: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13062555/
[12:08] <stefan__> hm... can ubuntu read old windows written flopy?
[12:09] <Seveas> yeah
[12:09] <stefan__> how can i check the flopy, there are  many flopys without anything, but it cant
[12:12] <erxr3> in the device list of gnome disk utility, I also see a greyed "zzz"..and when I want to power-off, I am asked if I want to power-off, which normally doesnt happen (the drive just gets powered off)
[12:12] <erxr3> http://is.gd/8Wy44o
[12:14] <erxr3> and when I try "safely remove drive" via nautilus, I get this: http://is.gd/uDEXeE
[12:16] <erxr3> I lost partitions among all these strange behaviours lately. can you please help me know how I can handle these actions?
[12:16] <fragtion> lo all. upgraded my server to 15.10 which went ok, but after the reboot I'm not seeing eth0. the VMware NIC is detected with lspci, but ifup is segfaults on boot query
[12:16] <fragtion> is this a known issue ?
[12:19] <MonkeyDust> fragtion  there's also #ubuntu-server
[12:20] <fragtion> ty
[12:20] <fragtion> more of a generic issue im sure though
[12:20] <fragtion> its only happening to my cloud server, other machines updated fine
[12:22] <rom-> how do I use a jsp file...
[12:22] <|\n> hello, i heard that there is some nvidia-prime thing which could help me with nvidia optimus instead of bumblebee, so currently after purging anything related to nvidia and bumblebee and installing nvidia-346-updates nvidia-settings nvidia-prime (with reboot) i can see only https://i.imgur.com/4gWJllh.png , is it supported way of making optimus thing useful?
[12:23] <rom-> by installing tomcat on ubuntu I believe right?
[12:24] <joker_> hi
[12:36] <eahmedshendy> USB Kingston appears 67.1MB (using lsscsi -s), but it should be 16GB, how to know if this flash is corrupted or can be fixed?
[12:37] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  with lsblk, what does it show?
[12:39] <erxr3> hello everyone, are you familiar with data rescue via gparted?
[12:39] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust: sdb      8:16   1    64M  0 disk
[12:40] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  so that's yet another value (64M)
[12:40] <eahmedshendy> :)
[12:41] <eahmedshendy> I don't know, I just run (lsscsi -s)
[12:41] <eahmedshendy> using fdiks command: Disk /dev/sdb: 67 MB, 67108864 bytes
[12:41] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust:
[12:44] <erxr3> is there anyone experienced with detecting lost file systems via gparted?
[12:45] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  is that usb 3.0 ?
[12:45] <BluesKaj> hiyas all
[12:46] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust: I don't remember, how to know by command?
[12:47] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  not sure, but i guess the question really is, how ubuntu deals with usb 3
[12:47] <Morientes> HI, can someone help me please, when I insert a dvd with photos it appears like that: http://prnt.sc/8xrdud
[12:48] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  try   lsusb | grep USB
[12:50] <eahmedshendy> noting
[12:50] <eahmedshendy> But this appears instead: 1516:1238 CompUSA
[12:50] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust
[12:51] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust: I run a windows virtual machine, it detects the USB as CompUSA "BootLoader"
[12:51] <ioria> Morientes, others dvds  working ?
[12:51] <erxr3> could you please help me know if the image file has the correct extension here; sudo ddrescue /dev/sdb9 ~/Documents/tosh.img tosh.logfile ?
[12:52] <erxr3> does it need to be .img or .dd ?
[12:52] <Morientes> ioria: yes...
[12:52] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  i'm not familiar with lsscsi... did you read   man lsscsi ?
[12:53] <ioria> Morientes, what are, jpeg , tiff ... ?
[12:53] <neil_> ioria, jpeg is a picture file format.
[12:53] <Morientes> ioria: I am not very very sure but I think they are jpg
[12:54] <ioria> Morientes, if you click one of them ?
[12:54] <neil_> ioria, I think tiff files are used for fax images.
[12:54] <erxr3> does the extension need to be .img, .dd or .iso?
[12:54] <Morientes> a new window appears, "Select an application to open "unknown" files"
[12:54] <ioria> neil_, ok
[12:55] <ioria> Morientes, have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[12:55] <Morientes> I don't think that I have it...
[12:55] <Morientes> Excuse me, I am a beginner...
[12:56] <ioria> Morientes, try, if nothing change remove it
[12:56] <ioria> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:57] <Morientes> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[12:57] <Morientes> is it right ?
[12:57] <ioria> Morientes, yes
[12:57] <linux> HELLO GIRLS
[12:57] <cfhowlett> !ops | linux trolling here again
[13:04] <motaka2> Does anyone knows when a person whose nickname starts by df would be on line?
[13:05] <auronandace> motaka2: you could outline your issue and see if anyone else can help
[13:07] <boxmein> help, my graphics card doesn't real and I can't figure out why
[13:09] <Morientes> ioria: Now it's appearing this http://prnt.sc/8xrks5 how can I accept it please?
[13:09] <ioria> Morientes, press Enter
[13:09] <motaka2> auronandace: It would tale a long time, but I will try so , for a long time I was reciving an error saying /temp is not ready to use I was ignoring it. lately I had to restart the PC several times so once among those restarts the system would boot. I wanted to try a new ubuntu on DVD or usb but I couldnt. Now I removed the hard and connected it to a another case and my system boots. I wonder...
[13:09] <motaka2> ...what should I do rather than backupping important files and then how can I fix the issue with the first case which has more RAM?
[13:10] <Morientes> ioria: is not happening nothing after enter... :)
[13:10] <boxmein> DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep vendor tells me that my graphics card is intel, while I have intel/nvidia hybrid
[13:10] <boxmein> here's some logs
[13:10] <boxmein> http://hastebin.com/ekiyawisoc.scala
[13:10] <ioria> Morientes, tab and then enter (maybe click on the window to activate)
[13:11] <Morientes> ioria: excellent ! :)
[13:11] <ioria> Morientes, :þ
[13:14] <auronandace> motaka2: what was happening when you tried a dvd/usb with the older system?
[13:15] <Nicholas> anyone know how to decrease screen brightness in ubuntu?
[13:15] <motaka2> auronandace: I selected using ubunti without installation and then it stayed for a long time on a blinking black page
[13:15] <motaka2> auronandace: I think my case suffers a hardware issue
[13:16] <boxmein> Nicholas: sudo su, then as root, ls /sys/class/backlight, try one of those dirs and echo stuff to /sys/class/backlight/chosen_backlight/brightness
[13:16] <linux1111> Hi there
[13:16] <auronandace> motaka2: how old is the ram?
[13:16] <boxmein> Nicholas: for example, for me, # echo 500 > /sys/class/intel_backlight/brightness sets to half brightness
[13:16] <linux1111> Everytime I wipe my USB using dd I find a new folder lost+found.
[13:16] <linux1111> why is that happening?
[13:16] <motaka2> auronandace: maybe about 6 years but the other case on which the hard works it is ten years
[13:17] <Nicholas> boxmein they are just dimming the screen. not actually decreasing the lcd light . i would like to dim the lcd screen to save power
[13:17] <cfhowlett> linux1111, dd is a file copy command not a wipe command
[13:17] <k1l> linux1111: lost&found is a directory made by ext2/3/4 for data that got corrupted and was recovered by ext again
[13:17] <boxmein> linux1111: something (the fs driver or something else) is recovering files from broken data
[13:17] <auronandace> motaka2: hmm, age is not the only factor in ram going bad. if you want to rule out ram as the issue then running a memtest would help
[13:18] <linux1111> so what do I do now?
[13:18] <boxmein> Nicholas: not really...? for me it literally changes the backlight, not dimming
[13:18] <linux1111> I need a clean usb
[13:18] <boxmein> Nicholas: with xrandr I can tell it to dim and it's clearly different
[13:18] <k1l> linux1111: it is clean
[13:18] <linux1111> like with no data on it.
[13:19] <linux1111> how do i wipe it?
[13:19] <linux1111> this lost&found dir is like 19 kb
[13:19] <k1l> linux1111: dont use dd to wipe it. just press "format " in the disk utility or gparted
[13:19] <Nicholas> boxmein ok i'll see. thanks much appreciate it
[13:19] <linux1111> I just have the terminal
[13:19] <linux1111> Im using ubuntugutty
[13:19] <boxmein> linux1111: good old fdisk
[13:19] <k1l> linux1111: well, delete that folder?
[13:20] <boxmein> linux1111: recreate the partition table, make one partition and reformat it as ext4 or god knows
[13:20] <motaka2> auronandace: memtest could be ran when the system is is on OS selection page?
[13:20] <auronandace> motaka2: yes, it is an option in grub
[13:21] <MonkeyDust> linux1111  what ubuntu are you using? what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[13:21] <boxmein> linux1111: something like fdisk /dev/myusb, then n, follow orders, w, q, and then mkfs.ext4 /dev/myusb1
[13:21] <motaka2> auronandace: When I touch the case I feel like being effected by electricity but it's been like that for a long time. Could the dust make a short circuit ?
[13:21] <linux1111> im doin that right now boxmein
[13:22] <cfhowlett> motaka2, it could and that is abnormal and dangerous behavior.  dangerous to you and your system as well
[13:22] <auronandace> motaka2: sorry, i'm not much of a hardware expert, i'll let someone more experienced answer that
[13:22] <motaka2> cfhowlett: Thank you
[13:23] <Morientes> ioria: should I reboot? it seems that ubuntu-restricted-extras has been installed, I took out the dvd and inset it again, and now it doesn't show it at all

[13:40] <Guest9576> dual boot question. I've been trying to dual boot with Windows 10. Windows 10 would load automatically until i renamed the directory, now I can't get grub to recognize that windows is there... how can I do that?
[13:40] <ioria> Morientes, no problem, tx
[13:42] <Kaspi> My qt on my lubuntu is missing libmysqlclient_r.so.16 any idea how to get it? I tried installing libmysqlclient. http://pastie.org/10520195
[13:42] <ioria> Kaspi lubuntu does not use qt, i think
[13:43] <Kaspi> I've installed it and using it for a project
[13:43] <ioria> oh
[13:43] <Kaspi> trying to us it*
[13:43] <Kaspi> use
[13:43] <ioria> i remember that is 18, not 16
[13:44] <Kaspi> libmysqlclient18 is, but as you can see according to the ldd output, it wants the specific *.so and I don't know where to get it :(
[13:44] <auronandace> Kaspi: you say you installed it, why is qt in your /home/?
[13:45] <Kaspi> That's where I have installed Qt, using their Maintanence tool
[13:46] <Kaspi> It's Qt 5.4 btw
[13:48] <Kaspi> Do you think I should try asking in #qt instead?
[13:48] <ioria> Kaspi 16 was on Lucid
[13:48] <Kaspi> hmm
[13:49] <Kaspi> gotta check my lubuntu version
[13:49] <MonkeyDust> Kaspi  cat /etc/issue
[14:01] <tux38> Hi
[14:01] <tux38> Running mint
[14:01] <MonkeyDust> tux38  not here
[14:03] <cfhowlett> !mint | tux38,
[14:04] <tux38> Lol
[14:04] <tux38> Ubuntu is supported by linux
[14:04] <tux38> Mint from here on on out
[14:04] <cfhowlett> tux38, obviously. but mint is NOT ubuntu.  go to mint support.
[14:05] <MonkeyDust> tux38  don't start, mint is not supported here... you might as well go to #debian, because ubuntu is debian based
[14:05] <tux38> Too bad
[14:05] <Ubik_> hello, do u think it possible to run virtualbox on a winxp machine 1 gb mem as host and lubuntu as guest os?
[14:06] <cfhowlett> Ubik_, barely possible.  depends on how many bells and whistles your XP is running and available ram
[14:06] <tux38> So is mint
[14:06] <cfhowlett> tux38, doesn't matter.  if you want ubuntu support, install ubuntu.  otherwise go to mint for mint support.
[14:06] <Ubik_> cfhowlett: my xp is optimized for processes and mem use
[14:06] <cfhowlett> Ubik_, how much ram is left?
[14:07] <MonkeyDust> tux38  type /topic to find out what's supported here
[14:07] <tux38> Mint is my choice so please stop
[14:07] <MonkeyDust> tux38  you're in the wrong channel and you know it... what's keeping you here
[14:07] <cfhowlett> tux38, no one is trying to change your mind.  your OS is not supported here.
[14:08] <Ubik_> cfhowlett: well not much physical  and 1.2 gb virtual
[14:08] <cfhowlett> Ubik_, try it
[14:08] <Ubik_> cfhowlett: ok bb ty
[14:09] <tux38> Its a distro
[14:09] <tux38> Not an os
[14:09] <tux38> Linux mint
[14:09] <cfhowlett> and now you're just being needlessly trolly.  welcome to /ignore.
[14:10] <tux38> Incorrect
[14:10] <tux38> Your the needy little troll boy
[14:13] <Yuken> I can not, for the life of me, figure out how to disable the sound of just one program
[14:14] <tux38> You need suppirt mint and not bs so choosy
[14:14] <k1l> tux38: no need for beeing agressiv. mint is not supported here. please ask in ##linux or the mint support channels on the other netowork like the bot told you already
[14:16] <MonkeyDust> Yuken  what program?
[14:16] <k1l> Yuken: go to sound settings and mute that program in the last tab
[14:17] <Yuken> MonkeyDust, WINE.
[14:17] <Yuken> k1l, using default Lubuntu 15.10. There is nothing like that, that I can find?
[14:17] <Yuken> oops
[14:18] <Yuken> that I can find.*
[14:19] <cfhowlett> Yuken, right click on the speaker
[14:20] <pwnawannab[NE]> Is anyone using IPA server with Ubuntu 15.04?
[14:20] <MonkeyDust> pwnawannab[NE]  that's a yes/no question... what brings you here?
[14:20] <cfhowlett> pwnawannab[NE], literal answer: yes.  someone somewhere in the world.  better question: YOUR details YOUR issues
[14:21] <k1l> regular ubuntu got that PA gui control thingy. lubuntu is using PA, too?
[14:21] <pwnawannab[NE]> I have IPA server on local network and Ubuntu machine that I'd like to have users authenticate against my IPA server
[14:21] <Yuken> cfhowlett, Volume Control Settings is an option, but that opens up a blank terminal
[14:22] <pwnawannab[NE]> need a place to start config
[14:22] <cfhowlett> Yuken, on my lubuntu, it opens the alsmixer sound preferences
[14:22] <cfhowlett> and no app specific control option is offered
[14:22] <MonkeyDust> pwnawannab[NE]  guess you better ask in #ubuntu-server
[14:22] <pwnawannab[NE]> thanks!
[14:23] <Yuken> cfhowlett, that does not happen with me o.o
[14:24] <cfhowlett> Yuken, in the terminal, type alsamixer
[14:25] <Yuken> cfhowlett, I can't lower the sound of individual programs there. Just the entire OS
[14:25] <cfhowlett> Yuken, precisely as I stated earlier.  lubuntu doesn't offer that option
[14:26] <Yuken> cfhowlett, how would I be able to do so, if there is a way?
[14:26] <cfhowlett> Yuken, somewhere in the guts of WINE there's a setting for sound... ask wine channels for directions
[14:27] <Yuken> Just #wine?
[14:27] <cfhowlett> !wine | Yuken
[14:27] <MonkeyDust> or #winehq
[14:28] <Yuken> Thank you, cfhowlett & MonkeyDust
[14:28] <cfhowlett> Yuken, happy2help!

[14:37] <|\n> i have the exactly same situation https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1218322/comments/512 is it still present in 15.10?
[14:38] <|\n> 6 months since this comment i just thought there could be something that fixed it already
[14:38] <MonkeyDust> |\n  you can add your name to the list of affecrted people
[14:39] <|\n> sure, any workarounds by chance, MonkeyDust ?
[14:40] <MonkeyDust> |\n  i have keyboard layout issue too, bug has been reported, but no solution yes... i solve it with this, maybe you can try it too... workaround, not a solution ... sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
[14:40] <MonkeyDust> yes = yet
[14:41] <|\n> doing it every time, thanks, MonkeyDust
[14:41] <MonkeyDust> |\n  you knwo that one?

[15:23] <BlueShark> Hi. How can I view the terminal log?
[15:23] <UniFreak> how to produce the sign ° in ubuntu?
[15:23] <UniFreak> see here: http://superuser.com/questions/510907/unicode-composition-in-sublime-text/671651#671651
[15:23] <BlueShark> I'm not talking about the ~/.bash_history one - I want to see the scrollback, including the output too.
[15:24] <BlueShark> Any way to do that?
[15:24] <UniFreak> but when I do it, the sign didn't show up in any text editor, gedit, sublimetext, and so on
[15:24] <xubuntu> hi
[15:24] <xubuntu> i got my xubuntu installing right now just downloaded it yesterday put it on a dvd
[15:35] <WereCatf> I just tried to boot Ubuntu from a USB3 HDD only to have it fail. Apparently, Ubuntu's initramfs doesn't load USB3-modules before attempting to mount filesystems. Is there some good reason for this?
[15:36] <erxr3> hello, testdisk returned these results when I searched "unknown media" instead of "intel partitions" : http://paste.ubuntu.com/13065008/
[15:37] <film> hallo
[15:37] <film> film
[15:37] <erxr3> I am supposed to be able to assign a file type here by selecting a partition, but it looks weird that 7 of them have the same size. could this be normal?
[15:37] <erxr3> because actual sizes are varying
[15:39] <erxr3> and I guess I should change the file type to Linux LUKS, right?
[15:42] <OerHeks> erxr3, only if you are sure you had a LUKS partition
[15:42] <erxr3> OerHeks, yes it was ext4 with luks encrypted
[15:42] <OerHeks> but as you are recovering from a raw image, anything can come up.
[15:43] <OerHeks> really, recovering a luks partition ? .. good luck.
[15:44] <erxr3> OerHeks, I am "trying to try" multiple things here. with this last one I ran testdisk on the actual disk, using its "unknown media" option
[15:44] <micah> hi, if I want to upgrade from 12.04LTS to wily... should I step through each upgrade until that release?
[15:44] <k1l> micah: yes.
[15:44] <k1l> you can only go 14.04 to 16.04 on the LTS path.
[15:45] <erxr3> OerHeks, luck is good but help would be great
[15:45] <roscoe> hi...Cant seem to install Ubuntu desktop from CD on a Dell Dimension- 32 bit computer with 512 RAM, 60 GB available space and Windows XP any ideas?
[15:45] <erxr3> I still dont know whether it will be fine if I can restore the filesystem
[15:46] <micah> k1l: ok, so I have to stay with TLS, unless I reinstall?
[15:46] <k1l> micah: no. you can leave the LTS path and go 14.04-14.10-15.04-15.10
[15:46] <k1l> but that makes it 3 upgrades in row to be made.
[15:48] <erxr3> I have an .img file, too, that I'd like to try to mount. could you help me with the right command?
[15:48] <micah> k1l: thats not a problem for me, unless there is actually a problem doing that
[15:51] <erxr3> also, I see often disk images end with .dd, but I created it as .img....are both rightß
[15:51] <erxr3> ?
[15:51] <erxr3> are they both right?
[15:52] <zteam> Hi!
[15:53] <zteam> Does anybody know a way to test a USB pendrive /flashdrive for hardware errors?
[15:54] <lotuspsychje> !testdisk | zteam
[15:55] <lotuspsychje> !info testdisk | zteam
[15:55] <zteam> I'm attempting to format a USB pendrive but the drive became read-only  and it seems impossible to fix
[15:55] <erxr3> is there a way to detect right partition in this list?
[15:55] <erxr3> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13065008/
[15:56] <lotuspsychje> zteam: did you try format with gparted?
[15:56] <WereCatf> zteam: sounds like the USB-stick detected that it can no longer write on the Flash reliably and locked itself. Test in another computer, if it happens again then it's broken.
[15:56] <zteam> lotuspsychje, thanks but Testdisk doesn't check for hardware errors, it fixes partition errors
[15:56] <zteam> lotuspsychje, I can't because it is write-protected
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> zteam: any errors?
[15:57] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: I just got here, but before you do that, I'm just assuming it's talking about unknown space in GParted due to bad superblocks?
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> zteam: try a tail -f /var/log/syslog and plug in usb
[15:58] <zteam> WereCatf, Yep, that's what I think too, just wondered if there was any way to test it, it happens
[15:59] <ST-84> I keep getting htis error with  backintime (FileUtils.cpp:368) fatal: config file specified by environment does not exist
[15:59] <ST-84> When trying to setup backup encryption
[15:59] <sloantothebone> Ugh i needs help
[15:59] <zteam> SonikkuAmerica, nope, there is a partition and working filesystem on the drive, but according to dosfsck it has errors
[15:59] <WereCatf> zteam: Unplug the stick, stick it into another port or another PC, then try to read through it with ddrescue. If that works, then try to write to it with ddrescue -- if that fails then the stick is bad.
[16:00] <sloantothebone> The colors on my screen appear darker then they should be
[16:00] <sloantothebone> I think it happened right after I opened a windows exe
[16:00] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: Hmmm... before you do what WereCatf said..
[16:00] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: can you run [ sudo fsck -f /dev/sdXY ] ($X = drive letter, $Y = partition)?
[16:00] <sloantothebone> Can someone help me troubleshoot this please?
[16:01] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: Or can it not fix that error?
[16:01] <zteam> WereCatf, I can copy any files from it, I'm just unable to create / modify files or format it
[16:01] <SonikkuAmerica> sloantothebone: The colours appear darker? Is this due to your brightness control?
[16:01] <lotuspsychje> sloantothebone: tryed a reboot?
[16:01] <sloantothebone> No i havent tried a reboot
[16:01] <lotuspsychje> sloantothebone: what kinf of windows exe, and did you runw ith wine?
[16:02] <sloantothebone> Yes with wine, it was a game
[16:02] <zteam> SonikkuAmerica, I already tried with dosfsck -a it claimed to fix alot of errors but it didn't (I assume it couldn't write them back)
[16:02] <sloantothebone> I will give you the link to the game
[16:03] <sloantothebone> this is the website: http://scpcbgame.com/
[16:03] <sloantothebone> this is the direct link to the zip file containing the program I ran: http://scpcbgame.com/SCP%20-%20Containment%20Breach%20v1.2.3.zip
[16:03] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: You can try to force a read/write mount with [ sudo mount -n -o remount,rw $MOUNT_FOLDER ]
[16:04] <sloantothebone> when i exited the program it crashed, perhaps it was supposed to turn the screen back but it didnt
[16:04] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: and then try fixing the fs again.
[16:04] <sloantothebone> lotuspsychje
[16:04] <sloantothebone> thx for trying to help
[16:04] <zteam> sloantothebone, if you like to play windowsgames with linux you should try with PlayOnLinux it can handle many but not all Windowsgames
[16:06] <SonikkuAmerica> !wine
[16:06] <sloantothebone> Isn't playonlinux just wine?
[16:06] <sloantothebone> I'm using wine
[16:06] <SonikkuAmerica> sloantothebone: Wine with a giant Python and GTK wraparound.
[16:06] <sloantothebone> So what difference does that make?
[16:07] <sloantothebone> will that make the game run better on my laptop?
[16:07] <zteam> sloantothebone, sort of it's a tool that can help you to configure wine for best performance and compatbiblity
[16:07] <SonikkuAmerica> sloantothebone: Well, the POL devs will tell you that there are a lot of diefferences.
[16:07] <SonikkuAmerica> -e
[16:07] <sloantothebone> Ok I'll try rebooting i guess
[16:08] <zteam> sloantothebone, it does make it easier to get things working under Wine
[16:08] <zteam> sloantothebone, and it can download patched versions of wine too
[16:09] <pjotter> what does?
[16:16] <tortib> can one of you please kill me and get it over with?   I meant Ukranian
[16:30] <Kiev> )
[16:30] <Dredd> Quick question.
[16:30] <SonikkuAmerica> !ask | Dredd, fire away - !
[16:30] <Dredd> Wasn't there a flavor of Ubuntu that was based on the Tor project?
[16:30] <Dredd> Whoops!
[16:30] <EriC^^> Dredd: tails
[16:30] <Dredd> Not Tails
[16:30] <Dredd> You could install it onto your HDD, as well
[16:30] <SonikkuAmerica> Dredd: not an official flavour that I know of...
[16:31] <Dredd> Hm...
[16:31] <EriC^^> blackbuntu?
[16:31] <MonkeyDust> Dredd  i guess you mean kali, but thats not supported here
[16:31] <EriC^^> i think that's a pen test distro though
[16:31] <Artemis3> Dredd, or just install tor
[16:32] <Dredd> It wasn't a penetration testing OS
[16:32] <Dredd> Just a security-focused Ubuntu flavor
[16:34] <MonkeyDust> Dredd  http://www.debianadmin.com/list-of-ubuntu-based-linux-distributions-and-live-cds.html
[16:35] <SonikkuAmerica> (Oh look who's here! Myrtti ! Just thought I'd point that out. Sorry for the !ot)
[16:37] <Myrtti> why is my precence something worth pointing out? I've been here more or less ten years...
[16:37] <SonikkuAmerica> (True, true. For me, long time no see though.)
[16:37] <OerHeks> Dredd, you have the answer already: tails.
[16:38] <Dredd> I just don't think that was it.
[16:44] <overdos3> sup
[16:45] <BluesKaj> lunch
[16:45] <overdos3> have you guys tried studio?

[16:52] <linocisco> hi all,
[16:52] <linocisco> what to install to convert DVD to mp4 or mkv?
[16:53] <linocisco> what to install to convert DVD to mp4 or mkv?
[16:54] <BluesKaj> linocisco, create an iso of the dvd then use vlc to play it, much simpler a fewer chances of conversion corruption
[16:54] <MonkeyDust> what's the command again to see the running daemons/services ?
[16:54] <BluesKaj> mkv us a wrapper for h264/hidef
[16:54] <BluesKaj> is
[16:55] <ioria> MonkeyDust, you mean  ps -A ?
[16:56] <baiter> ps -aux?
[16:56] <jpds> BluesKaj: initctl list
[16:56] <jpds> MonkeyDust: ↑
[16:57] <MonkeyDust> jpds  tnx
[17:01] <metaphysician> MonkeyDust: `initctl list' does not list all of 'em. Add output of `sudo service --status-all' to it.
[17:01] <jpds> metaphysician: Or just put sudo in front of initctl
[17:02] <metaphysician> jpds: no, it is not about sudo. Some services still use old sysv init.
[17:04] <metaphysician> jpds: eg. apache2 server in 14.04
[17:07] <ioria> right
[17:11] <niles> can i know the package install name for the DocTools of KF5 on wily?
[17:13] <MonkeyDust> sudo service --status-all is what I was looking for

[17:13] <Bashing-om> niles: See if ' apt-cache search kf5 ' gives out the desired info .
[17:14] <niles> Bashing-om> i did that but nothing seems to be matching
[17:15] <niles> its vivid not wily
[17:15] <WereCatf> What is this "kf5" anyway? Is it an abbreviation of something?
[17:15] <OerHeks> KDE framework 5
[17:16] <WereCatf> Maybe you're looking for kdoctools5 then?
[17:16] <niles> ya
[17:16] <WereCatf> "apt-cache search doctools" would've listed that one
[17:17] <Bashing-om> niles: Is kf5 installed ? Perhaps then ' apt-cache show kf5 ' ?
[17:18] <niles> Bashing-om: done with kdoctools-dev
 that worked
[17:19] <Bashing-om> niles: K :)
[17:19] <niles> thanks:)
[17:19] <WereCatf> You're whalecum
[17:19] <blah-> cool
[17:20] <Netek> o ubuntu 14.04 I did adduser user  and then adduser user sudo
[17:20] <Netek> I can sudo a command but when I do su - and enter the user pass it tells me authentication failure...  any reason why? -_-
[17:20] <MonkeyDust> !root | Netek here's why
[17:20] <WereCatf> "su -" doesn't use sudo, they're two different mechanisms
[17:21] <WereCatf> I use "sudo -i" to get an interactive root shell
[17:21] <Alex11223> Why do I ger error (in dmesg) "ath9k_htc: Firmware - htc_9271.fw download failed" when trying to connect my usb wifi adapter to VM with Ubuntu or Kali? Even though I have this file in /lib/firmware and it should be up to date
[17:21] <Netek> ahh ok

[17:22] <knikolla> Hi guys. I'm having an issue where if I install an application, it will not appear in the Unity dash until restarting. Any ideas?
[17:22] <WereCatf> Alex11223: how did you install the firmware? Did you install it with apt-get install firmware-atheros?
[17:24] <zoolook> knikolla: you're not alone. My workaround for now is alt-f2
[17:25] <knikolla> zoolook: has the bug been reported?
[17:26] <zoolook> knikolla: I don't know. I'm a cli guy so I don't really care that much, but yes, it's a bug and should be fixed. Go on an report it.
[17:26] <marlo_> zoolook, is that a Jean Michel Jarre inspired handle?
[17:26] <zoolook> marlo_: yup :D
[17:26] <marlo_> sawre him in concert in Houston once
[17:26] <marlo_> cool stuff
[17:28] <Alex11223> WereCatf: first I just copied it manually to /lib/firmware/. Also I tried apt-get install firmware-atheros on Kali, but it said that it is already the newest version. On Ubuntu apt-get does not find this package
[17:28] <zoolook> marlo_: I envy you :) That was his best years. I never saw any of his live shows in person
[17:28] <fizlik> why my website stats always show date 01.01.1970 on my ubuntu lampp server?
[17:28] <fizlik> someone know how to fix this?
[17:28] <marlo_> zoolook, outdoor, fireworks, lasers and all that.  pretty neat.
[17:30] <fizlik> why my website stats always show date 01.01.1970 on my ubuntu lampp server? someone know how to fix this?
[17:31] <Bashing-om> fizlik: Just a thought. what date does bios show ?
[17:31] <WereCatf> Alex11223: I don't quite frankly know. Maybe try installing the latest firmware from https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware ?
[17:31] <fizlik> aha
[17:31] <fizlik> :)
[17:31] <fizlik> thx
[17:32] <Bashing-om> fizlik: Time to change the CMOS battery ?
[17:33] <OerHeks> maybe CMOS battery, or a jumper that locks the bios
[17:33] <WereCatf> Alex11223: I just noticed that you're using the adapter in a USB 3.0 - port, right? Have you tried it in a USB 2.0 - port?
[17:36] <Alex11223> WereCatf: yes, I tried different USB ports
[17:36] <WereCatf> Alex11223: Strange
[17:36] <WereCatf> Alex11223: I would help, but I dunno what the issue is
[17:38] <Windows3> I'm having some trouble with crontab. I'm usin sudo crontab -e and I've got the line @reboot root /bin/myscript.sh, but it doesn't work.
[17:39] <fizlik> in bios is correct time and date but my website show 01.01.1970.
[17:41] <Windows3> I'm lookin at the syslog and I never see the cron normal exit line
[17:41] <Bashing-om> fizlik: OK, then is the system time correct .. from terminal ' date ' ? ( and are you dual booting Windows, where Windows controls the hardware Clock )
[17:41] <fizlik> no just ubuntu alone
[17:42] <EriC^^> Windows3: drop the root
[17:43] <fizlik> 'date'
[17:43] <fizlik> нед,  1. нов 2015.  18:43:10 CET
[17:44] <Bashing-om> fizlik: Is that time correct ?
[17:44] <fizlik> yeah
