[00:11] <CipherWeston> Hey, I'm having trouble with my website connecting to a remote Ubuntu MySQL Server. It's completely blocking it (error: 111) and I've already set bind-address in my.cnf to <IP_ADDRESS> (skip-networking was never in the file). Anyone know some other solution?
[00:43] <Sling> CipherWeston: can you verify its listening on all interfaces on the mysql host? lsof -i:3306
[00:43] <Sling> also, is there any firewall involved on either side? check iptables, etc
[00:43] <CipherWeston> mysqld  916 mysql   10u  IPv4   8262      0t0  TCP *:mysql (LISTEN)
[00:43] <Sling> looks good
[00:44] <CipherWeston> I might need help with the iptables command..
[00:46] <Sling> I prefer this one: iptables -n -v --line-numbers -L
[00:49] <CipherWeston> (am not a pro at this) here's what was given to me: http://i.imgur.com/x3R9bnZ.png
[00:50] <Sling> okay so essentially everything is open on that server
[00:51] <Sling> only ssh is passed trough a anti-brute-force mechanism
[00:51] <Sling> and the other host?
[00:51] <CipherWeston> That's a great question. Let's see if I can get in there (it's through domain.com)
[01:08] <CipherWeston> Well, after a long talk with a support guy, turns out my website's hosting does not allow remote SQL connections. Damn my luck. Thanks for the help though!
[08:58] <lordievader> Good morning.
[10:30] <Grey_Loki> Hi. The version of weechat in the repo is quite outdated (0.4.2, latest stable is 1.1.1). I'm wondering - are there likely to be any problems if I install the latest version of weechat from source, with a version from an aptitude installation already on the system?
[10:30] <bekks> You will have problem doing it that way.
[10:31] <bekks> A more safe way would be using a PPA or create a .deb for the version you want to install.
[10:32] <Grey_Loki> bekks: using checkinstall, or similar?
[10:32] <bekks> Yes. Or just use a PPA.
[10:34] <Grey_Loki> Huh, neat. I didn't know those existed :D
[23:54] <hehe> hi folks
[23:55] <hehe> for some reason creation of new network adapter fails
[23:55] <hehe> bizzare
[23:55] <hehe> what can i do to fix it?"
[23:56] <hehe> I am following this manual https://www.softether.org/4-docs/1-manual/6._Command_Line_Management_Utility_Manual/6.5_VPN_Client_Management_Command_Reference
[23:56] <hehe> :D


[02:53] <UBuxuBU> will lubuntu 14.04 download to a CD???
[02:53] <UBuxuBU> or do i  need a DVD?
[02:54] <sydney> UBuxuBU: They all should fit on cd.
[02:54] <UBuxuBU> ok cool cuz  i know ubuntu does NOT
[02:54] <UBuxuBU> im really glad lubuntu is still that small
[02:54] <UBuxuBU> thanks
[02:54] <sydney> :D
[03:18] <UBuxuBU> any screenshots i can use to help someone install lubuntu ?
[03:18] <UBuxuBU> i have her in a skype session now
[03:19] <UBuxuBU> talking to her as she installs it
[03:25] <UBuxuBU> Input/output error during read on/dev/sda
[03:25] <UBuxuBU> thats what it say while we booted lubuntu
[03:25] <UBuxuBU> wth is that
[03:26] <sydney> UBuxuBU: livecd,r install?
[03:26] <UBuxuBU> install
[03:27] <sydney> hmm,you might have to ask on #ubuntu
[03:27] <UBuxuBU> trying to install lub over a fkkked up w7
[03:27] <UBuxuBU> for this issue it doesnt matter what buntu channel
[03:27] <UBuxuBU> its cuz the mobo cant see the HDD
[03:29] <sydney> UBuxuBU: you are more likely to get an answer on #ubuntu;there are 1600 people there,and 56 here. ;)
[04:15] <ianorlin> is the underlying disk good?
[04:42] <UBuxuBU> well not sure
[04:42] <UBuxuBU> tried to boor a doze disk and said it could neot see HDD but bios saw HDD
[04:42] <UBuxuBU> boot*
[04:43] <UBuxuBU> bios sees HDD but NO os disk will install
[04:43] <UBuxuBU> prolly a driver that go from mobo to HDD
[04:43] <UBuxuBU> connector or something
[09:12] <Guest93014> Hello World, Complete Newbie here..I'm trying to get Lubuntu running on live CD on a Pentium M laptop (Dell Inspiron 8600 from 2003 if you care). Get an error about 'that processor not supported'. Fo shizzle?
[09:12] <Guest93014> Can I try the alternative CD?
[09:13] <Guest93014> I wanted to be BobbaFett but space out and that nick is already taken .. Sorry
[09:15] <Guest93014> I'll hang around and see what shakes ..
[13:07] <bollo> I have lightdm configured to autologin the guest user which works fine and the config gets pulled from a special user. But everytime the guest user gets logged in an error message appears reading "No session for pid 1234". The pid it refers to is lxsession. There's not much on the googles and what I've found don't seem to be related. Any ideas?
[15:16] <marc__> hey there, i'm using lubuntu 14.04 and downloaded bluefish some days ago. now sth strange occured. i cannot start anymore from the panel... only as root from the terminal. what the heck is going on?
[15:17] <rafaellaguna> can you access the folder where you downlaopded it?
[15:17] <rafaellaguna> *downloaded
[15:17] <marc__> downloaded it via synaptic
[15:18] <rafaellaguna> and you put the launcher on the panel?
[15:18] <marc__> no, no... i meat from the "start"-menu
[15:18] <rafaellaguna> oh
[15:18] <marc__> meant*
[15:18] <rafaellaguna> when you install something all users can access the apps
[15:18] <rafaellaguna> try launching it from a terminal
[15:19] <marc__> i did that... as non-root it won't start because of a "glib"-error or sth. as root, it works
[15:19] <marc__> sure, it's not a big deal... but it makes it less conveniant
[15:19] <rafaellaguna> I'm installing now to check
[15:20] <marc__> convenient*
[15:20] <rafaellaguna> of course, every file you create with will become root-only
[15:20] <rafaellaguna> please, wait, I'm testing it...
[15:21] <marc__> so far i've only been using leafpad and geany (sometimes kompozer because of wysiwyg to check some widths and things) for web design, but i liked bluefish's autocomplete and suggestions a lot
[15:22] <rafaellaguna> I know, I used Kompozer, but it fills crappy html code, so I use gedit now
[15:23] <rafaellaguna> opening...
[15:23] <rafaellaguna> sorry, but it works fine as normal user
[15:23] <rafaellaguna> have you tried to reinstall "by force"?
[15:24] <rafaellaguna> sudo apt-get install bluefish --reinstall
[15:24] <rafaellaguna> or even better, doing that for the library that fails
[15:25] <marc__> will try it now
[15:25] <rafaellaguna> ok, marc__
[15:38] <marc__> thanks
[15:38] <rafaellaguna> did it work?
[15:39] <rafaellaguna> bye marc :)
[18:32] <jxshxx> I've successfully installed 13.04 from cd 3 times (twice w/ alternate install) but each time I've upgraded to 13.10, it sticks on the splash screen after reboot.  Just tried running Boot Repair from live cd, but that didn't help.  Something I should know?
[18:35] <wxl> jxshxx: is it frozen? can you open a virtual terminal with ctrl-alt-f1?
[18:36] <wxl> jxshxx: for that matter, why are you using outdated software?
[18:40] <jxshxx> wxl: ctrl-alt-f1 didn't get a response.  I'm trying to use the 13.04 disk I have to load then upgrade to13.10
[18:41] <wxl> jxshxx: why not 14.04?
[18:41] <jxshxx> wxl: Because it had issues when I tried it
[18:41] <wxl> jxshxx: what issues?
[18:43] <jxshxx> wxl: For one thing, I have to turn off something in the panel every boot or else the keyboard doesn't work.  There was also a wireless problem.  The upgrade from 13.10 wasn't good for me.
[18:43] <rafaellaguna> the wireless problem is the applet problem
[18:44] <phillw> which is now fixed :)... the keyboard issue is still broken in chromium, but 14.10 uses firefox :)
[18:44] <wxl> jxshxx: i'm not sure about your keyboard problem— i'd need more details— but the wireless problem, as rafaellaguna suggested, is as good as fixed.
[18:44] <wxl> oh THAT issue
[18:44] <wxl> iBus :/
[18:44] <wxl> i've tried repeatedly to get the #ibus (dev) channel to respond to no avail
[18:44] <rafaellaguna> another known problem
[18:45] <rafaellaguna> anyway we're recommending remove it, I'm about to tell Julien we should use Kylin's language selector, it's better than iBus and no bugs at all
[18:47] <wxl> jxshxx: long story short, if you get 14.04 we can help you make it work Xd
[18:47] <rafaellaguna> and it works better, the whole system, trust me
[18:48] <wxl> generally supported software does :)
[18:49] <rafaellaguna> even with computers falling into pieces like mine :D
[18:49] <jxshxx> wxl: 13.10 isn't supported?
[18:50] <wxl> jxshxx: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS
[18:51] <wxl> based on my estimation, this is the last month for security updates
[18:51] <wxl> which is
[18:51] <wxl> Not Good™
[18:52] <wxl> jxshxx: if you don't want to update often but still be supported, i'd get an lts version, which, lo and behold, 14.04 happens to be
[18:52] <jxshxx> wxl: Well as to "get 14.04" I just opened it up on another machine, so I'm all ears as to "make it work"
[18:52] <jxshxx> just ran update and rebooted
[18:53] <wxl> rafaellaguna: problem solved just by removing ibus, no?
[18:54] <wxl> jxshxx: well here's the bug report for the ibus issue with lots of helpful advice. it's suggested to remove ibus but in actuality, it looks liek the last comment has advice to fix it without removing ibus (in case you don't want to for some odd reason but it will be likely go away anyways) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1284635
[18:55] <jxshxx> If there isn't some reason I'll need it, it may as well go away
[18:56] <jxshxx> Find it in software center and remove?
[18:56] <wxl> well it has a utility but it's not playing nice
[18:56] <wxl> yes that works
[18:56] <wxl> it's not like it can't; be added later
[18:56] <wxl> don't sweat it if it tells you to remove lubuntu-desktop which is just a list of packages, not the actual packages themselves
[18:57] <wxl> now the fix was released for the wifi bug but i got to find it
[18:57] <jxshxx> searching "ibus" in installed software shows Input Method (im-config) and Keyboard Input Methods
[18:58] <wxl> you can just `sudo apt-get -y purge ibus`
[18:58] <jxshxx> excellent
[19:01] <phillw> wxl: you just need to
[19:01] <phillw> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[19:01] <phillw> that will pull the fix in.
[19:01] <wxl> phillw: for the nm-applet issue?
[19:01] <phillw> wxl: yup.
[19:02] <phillw> that's why people suddenly reported having two applets :)
[19:03] <wxl> phillw: neat.
[19:03] <wxl> got that jxshxx ?
[19:03] <jxshxx> wxl: On it!
[19:03] <wxl> jxshxx: let me know if you need antyhing else
[19:04] <jxshxx> wxl: I have 17 applets ...
[19:05] <jxshxx> wxl: Kidding.  Thanks  Downloading the Trusty image for other machines
[19:05] <wxl> whoa you had me freaking out for a moment there
[19:05] <wxl> :)
[19:15] <UltimaKR> Hi, does anyone know about lubuntu and graphics cards?
[19:27] <melodie> UltimaKR same as for other Ubuntu editions and graphics
[19:27] <melodie> what's the matter?
[19:28] <melodie> UltimaKR what graphics and what issues?
[19:48] <UltimaKR> melodie: I have an older Dimension 3100 with integrated graphics and wanted to upgrade. I was wondering which cards are compatible and how good of one I need to notice a performance difference.
[19:50] <wxl> UltimaKR: does this machine have a linux on it now? if so, which one? if not, what specific card is it using?
[19:50] <UltimaKR> wxl: It has Lubuntu on it (I think its the 14.04 if that was the upgrade)...it is using the onboard graphics that come with the Intel 2.8 GHz processor
[19:51] <wxl> UltimaKR: so you want to add an external card?
[19:52] <UltimaKR> wxl: Yes, but aside from the constraints set by the computer (it must be PCI, not PCI-E), I was curious about which kinds were compatible with my linux and how good of a card I need
[19:54] <wxl> UltimaKR: ah, i'd say ati over nvidia but at this point both are fairly well supported. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCards might be helpful
[19:54] <wxl> UltimaKR: how good of a card you need depends more on your particular application than it does the constraints of linux
[19:56] <wxl> UltimaKR: here are pci cards http://h-node.org/videocards/catalogue/en/1/1/undef/undef/works_with_3D/PCI/undef/undef
[19:57] <wxl> oops
[19:57] <wxl> UltimaKR: this link http://h-node.org/videocards/catalogue/en/1/1/undef/undef/undef/PCI/undef/undef
[19:58] <melodie> wxl nVidia supports cards longer than ATI does,for what linux drivers are concerned
[19:58] <wxl> UltimaKR: that other link is for pci cards known to work with free software and will handle 3d acceleration. there are only 2, but that's what i would go for since 3d acceleration saves cpu resources.
[19:59] <melodie> UltimaKR can you put on pastebin the output of "sudo lspci -v"  ?
[19:59] <wxl> melodie: not the problem. he wants a new card.
[20:00] <wxl> melodie: i.e. he's shopping
[20:00] <melodie> wxl I know, but I still want to see the specs of the chipset
[20:00] <melodie> if he wants to provide it
[20:07] <wxl> melodie: well he doesn't know what he wants yet XD
[20:07] <wxl> melodie: his current system works as is from what i gather
[20:09] <melodie> ok
[20:09]  * melodie gives up
[20:13] <wxl> melodie: no you did good! :)
[20:13] <melodie> you are very kind wxl
[20:13] <wxl> :)
[20:16] <melodie> going, good night
[20:17] <UltimaKR> wxl: Sorry was researching. So I will look for a Radeon of some sort.
[20:18] <UltimaKR> wxl: Should I look for a minimum memory?
[20:19] <UltimaKR> wxl: like 256 MB? is there a maximum too? Not certain what this chipset can handle. I would imagine I am only throttled by the weak as can be 230W PSU.
[20:22] <bodhi_zazen> anyone know if you can install lxqt on lubuntu and not "mess up" lxde ?
[20:22] <UltimaKR> bodhi: I believe so, but don't quote me on that.
[20:23] <bodhi_zazen> OK, thanks
[20:24] <UltimaKR> wxl: according to what you are saying, its actually looking more like the Nvidias that are doing well with 3d Acceleration
[20:31] <phillw> bodhi_zazen: I still have it confined to virt-manager, I *think* rafael is running it on a machine.
[20:40] <wxl> i would not advise installing lxqt unless you feel like playing with it bodhi_zazen
[20:40] <wxl> UltimaKR: true actually :)
[20:47] <UltimaKR> wxl: ok thanks. but what is your opinion on the size of the card? I don't want to invest too much into the old machine, but I want it to do more.
[20:48] <wxl> UltimaKR: what "more" do you want to do?
[20:49] <wxl> UltimaKR: i mean if you're talking about doing video editing or something you might want to go new :)
[20:55] <UltimaKR> wxl: no nothing that extreme. This is a secondary computer for light gaming/videos
[20:58] <wxl> UltimaKR: then i'd just look for something better than you have now. :)
[21:02] <UltimaKR> wxl: Technically that's anything discrete :) But is there like a minimum that I should go for? 256 MB? 512?
[21:13] <phillw> UltimaKR: avoid broadcom WiFi machines :)
[21:13] <phillw> just one less thing to have to fix :)
[21:13] <wxl> phillw: he's thinking specficially about graphics
[21:14] <phillw> okies, my video is amd and that needed no tweaking
[21:14] <bodhi_zazen> just purchase a linux compatible wireless usb, they go to $10 or so
[21:15] <phillw> it is less hassle, and I actually carry t
[21:16] <phillw> a couple 'in stock' for anyone in uk who gets stuck as they take a ~ week to ship from singapore :) (They ship world wide, free carriage)
[21:16] <wxl> UltimaKR: i'd just pick one of those two nvidias
[21:51] <UltimaKR> alright...thanks so much! it is much easier to install them than to pick them lol
[21:52] <UltimaKR> and phillw: I already have the wireless adapter. I only need a video card, but thanks anyway!


[23:39] <violinappren> goncalossilva: same solution applies
[23:39] <Dr_Willis> Lasivian:  no need to mess with  scripts in rcXXXX
[23:40] <^peanut^> Lasivian: well... it all depends on what u are trying to do. If you don't need the mount then just remove it from /etc/fstab. if you do need it every now and then, you could have a default option set in rc.local that unmounts it.
[23:40] <MaRk-I> goncalossilva: what video card do you have?
[23:40] <Lasivian> Dr_Willis: I'm getting this error: "CIFS VFS: No response for cmd 50 mid 331" when I shutdown
[23:41] <Lasivian> Dr_Willis: I have windows shares mounted in my fstab manually
[23:41] <violinappren> idioteque: not yet but there was an announcement
[23:41] <oneirosFade> Lasivian: You may want to look into pam_mount for that
[23:41] <Lasivian> oneirosFade: I had to mount them that way to make vlc work, this is a media player
[23:42] <idioteque> thanks violinappren, i'll wait  :) ubuntu netbook is just awesome! im loving it.
[23:42] <Dr_Willis> Lasivian:   if a user mounts windows shares. they should appear in the users .gvfs directory  - but i dont recall any issues with windows shares from fstab like yours.
[23:42] <oneirosFade> Lasivian: Yeah.  Just suggesting b/c I have Samba/CIFS shares set up for pam_mount, so when I log in, they mount, and when I logout/shutdown, they unmount
[23:42] <janisozaur> how do I create screencasts, reliably (I don't want a bunch of screenshots, but fluid motion)?
[23:42] <Lasivian> hrrm
[23:42] <^peanut^> Lasivian: do you reboot your media player often? If not, when you do reboot, do the drives mount up again after? Does the system hang because of that error and then you have to manaully power off and power on the system again?
[23:43] <Dr_Willis> janisozaur:  try the 'recordmydesktop' package and the gui for it
[23:43] <Lasivian> ^peanut^: they do remount properly, the system does hang
[23:43] <violinappren> janisozaur: instanbul
[23:43] <goncalossilva> MaRk-I: I believe it's a GF 320M
[23:43] <^peanut^> Lasivian: yea, you could try the pam_mount and or autofs to mount samba shares
[23:43] <Dr_Willis> Lasivian:  thers also the 'fusesmb' (or was it smbfuse) tool.
[23:43] <goncalossilva> MaRk-I: but If I use the live CD I can boot to my Ubuntu installation, so I'm guessing it's a bootloader issue
[23:44] <Lasivian> well, I know they do work just fine the way I have them mounting now, but they fail to unmount, which seems like it would be easy to fix without changing the whole system which I already understand :)
[23:45] <lobozoo_> <^peanut^: thanx dude this is much better
[23:45] <^peanut^> lobozoo: =) nice man.   Only reason i can think of. is that you got some progreams that are still using the share.. but that dosent really make a lot of sence.
[23:46] <Silent_Dream> I'm upgrading to 10.04, from a previous upgrade which froze halfway, so im on a livecd, doing the alternate install method....and I am getting some complicated grub questions that I dont know how to answer
[23:46] <lobozoo_> <^peanut^: just a pitty personal messages dont show up a different colour
[23:46] <Lasivian> Dr_Willis: /etc/rc0.d/K15umountnfs.sh <-- that should umount fstab mounts, right?
[23:46] <pHro_>  there is an automatic mysql backup going on oon this server i have recently started maintaing, i have looked through the crontabs of all users but can not see any script, it runs everyday at the same exact time so i am sure its automated, anybody know where i can find out where the script that is running is?
[23:46] <^peanut^> Lasivian: might be frowned on here. but  on my redhat based systems (2 of them I think), I have a custom rc3.d (thats my runlevel) script with name01 that just unmounts the mounts that cause me issues during a rebot
[23:46] <Silent_Dream> I am dual booting with Grub i should mention
[23:46] <^peanut^> lol reboot
[23:46] <oneirosFade> Dr_Willis / Lasivian : IIRC, from having the same problem at one point, the issue is that the network interface goes down before it tries to unmount the filesystems, so Samba/CIFS can't actually communicate the unmounting with the server
[23:47] <Lasivian> because if that's not unmounting them then something else is wrong
[23:47] <hiexpo> !lol
[23:47] <^peanut^> Lasivian: just what oneirosFade said.
[23:47] <reppypeppy> My sound shuts off after a few minuted on youtube videos, but the other sounds in other applications does not shut off. I am using 10.04
[23:47] <reppypeppy> ubottu, really?
[23:47] <arooni> how can i do a new line in a string passed to notify-send?
[23:47] <arooni> how can i do a new line in a string passed to notify-send?
[23:47] <Dr_Willis> reppypeppy:  try the html5 feature of youtube. :) but you need to use the google browser for that.

[23:48] <Lasivian> oneirosFade: yes, i'm running /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh at shutdown and reboot, I think there might be some reason it's failing to unmount tham
[23:48] <beppo> im unable to change passwords with passwd
[23:48] <Dr_Willis> reppypeppy:  i dont have the issue.. and flash can be very hard to 'fix' because its all closed source.
[23:48] <janisozaur> how do I crop video file?
[23:48] <Silent_Dream> violinappren: I didnt ask to ask, i asked
[23:48] <beppo> anyone knows how to fix?
[23:48] <Lasivian> hrrm, I should find my shutdown log
[23:48] <Dr_Willis> janisozaur:  ffmpeg/mencoder, front ends to those tools.
[23:49] <hiexpo> !media | janisozaur

[23:49] <Dr_Willis> beppo:  tell us what you are tryign to do exactly
[23:49] <reppypeppy> Dr.Willis, in the older releases of ubuntu people seemed to think it was something that pulseaudio was doing wrong

[23:50] <^peanut^> beppo: can you translate?
[23:50] <ZykoticK9> beppo, use sudo to change another users password --- "sudo passwd USERNAME"
[23:50] <Dr_Willis> reppypeppy:  pulse audio always gets blamed..     try it in a differnt browser perhaps. Try it in a window manager, thast dosent start pulse audio perhaps.   You could check the forums also. there may be others with similer issues.
[23:50] <violinappren> !pastebin | Silent_Dream
[23:51] <beppo> it says, passwd: error when changing the authentification token
[23:51] <reppypeppy> Dr_Willis: i would like some way to get it so firefox does not use pulseaudio
[23:51] <beppo> it's done as root
[23:51] <oneirosFade> Lasivian: Not trying to force you into using another method, for sure.  But just like with anything in the Linux world, there's untold numbers of ways to get something done, but if you choose the path less traveled, just know that you may not have anyone to guide you ;)
[23:51] <^peanut^> beppo: are you using ldap or nis as your password backend?
[23:51] <janisozaur> beppo: you can set LANG env variable to "C" before running a program to switch it's translation to english (well, in most cases english) "LANG=C passwd ..."
[23:52] <beppo> ah ok
[23:52] <beppo> yes ldap
[23:52] <beppo> but i also have local users
[23:52] <^peanut^> beppo: so are you changing a local user password or ldap?
[23:52] <beppo> locale user
[23:52] <beppo> -e
[23:52] <beppo> root@vdr01:~/lib# LANG=C passwd root
[23:52] <beppo> passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
[23:52] <beppo> passwd: password unchanged
[23:52] <beppo> root@vdr01:~/lib#
[23:53] <FloodBot4> beppo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:53] <Lasivian> oneirosFade: Yes, but part of the reason i'm using Ubuntu is to learn why things do and do not work :)
[23:53] <Silent_Dream> violinappren: http://paste.ubuntu.com/464731/
[23:53] <^peanut^> beppo: so of you run getent passwd | grep the username do you see the username?
[23:54] <beppo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/464732/
[23:54] <Silent_Dream> violinappren: I am worried if I install a new grub, I will mess something up and then wont be able to access my other partition.
[23:55] <^peanut^> beppo: so you have 2 useraccounts with the same name but with 2 different uid's. that might cause the problem...
[23:55] <violinappren> Silent_Dream: why are you trying to install without grub? you should go back and install grub either on the root partition or the whole disk (if there are not existing boot manager)
[23:55] <oneirosFade> Lasivian: Sure, and a good reason, too.  Like I said earlier, and someone else echoed, the most common issue behind what's going wrong for you is that the network interface is being turned off (as part of the shutdown/reboot process) before the filesystems are unmounted.  Because of this, it unmounts locally, but can't communicate with the machine that's serving the fs, so CIFS hangs up after however l
[23:55] <oneirosFade> ong, and throws an error.
[23:55] <trism> arooni: notify-send "This is a message" $'This message has a newline.\nAnd more text on the second line.'
[23:55] <beppo> ah wait
[23:55] <Silent_Dream> violinappren: how do i "go back"
[23:55] <beppo> just added a user to ldap
[23:56] <beppo> deleted it now but problem persists
[23:56] <^peanut^> beppo: ok how bout create a new local user...like test1
[23:56] <arooni> thanks trism
[23:56] <^peanut^> beppo: then passwd test1
[23:56] <beppo> same
[23:56] <beppo> did it
[23:56] <^peanut^> beppo:  hmm
[23:56] <violinappren> Silent_Dream: what's installed on your other parition? you can install grub on the root partition of your new installation (like /dev/sda2 instead whole disk like /dev/sda) and chainload it from your other installation (if it supports so, is it another gnu/linux?)
[23:56] <^peanut^> beppo: can you pastbin your /etc/nsswitch.conf file
[23:57] <Kyngdom> wow
[23:57] <violinappren> Silent_Dream: no button at bottom to cancel?
[23:57] <Kyngdom> samba4 is impossible to get rid of

[23:57] <kazagistar> I am trying to create a VPN using openvpn that allows all connected computers to see each other's netbios broadcasts like a bridged tap connection, but NOT be bridged to any local LAN, which is what all the tutorials and examples show. how can I do this?
[23:57] <violinappren> Silent_Dream: then type no
[23:57] <oneirosFade> Lasivian: So, if I understand the way you -want- to work this through, you may have luck setting those partitions to "noauto" in fstab, then making mount/unmount scripts for them and putting them in the right places set to run at the right points in the up/down sequence
[23:58] <Silent_Dream> violinappren: doesnt do anything
[23:58] <violinappren> Silent_Dream: press enter?
[23:58] <reppypeppy> thanks
[23:58] <Silent_Dream> violinappren: i do, and the screen flashes, but it goes back to the yes/no prompt
[23:58] <malandrao> hi
[23:58] <violinappren> Silent_Dream: try just 'n' and enter
[23:59] <Lasivian> oneirosFade: aye, I think there is an error in how i'm mounting it actually, i'll come back if I need more info but I know i'm doing it the hard way :) thanks
[23:59] <Silent_Dream> violinappren:  same issue, flashes with some text really fast, and goes back instantly to this same prompt
[23:59] <^peanut^> beppo: hmm.. only thing I see in there that I never use because it never liked me was the compat option. what happens when you change password and shadow to files ldap?
[23:59] <violinappren> Silent_Dream: what happens when you press tab more than once?
[23:59] <Silent_Dream> violinappren: pressing tab will swap betwen yes and no
[23:59] <Silent_Dream> repeatedly
