[00:01] <ToeSnacks> how do you downgrade the kernel?
[00:02] <OerHeks> ToeSnacks, hold shift @ boot and select a previous kernel
[00:02] <ToeSnacks> OerHeks: there is nothing else required?
[00:02] <Lorne> hey all...
[00:03] <Lorne> I need some help with a Purple Screen of death... - can anyone walk me through recovery?
[00:05] <OerHeks> ToeSnacks, not that i know of
[00:05] <ObrienDave> there's a PSOD????
[00:06] <Lorne> yeah... I did some app updates today...and rebooted ....and it came back to a PSOD!
[00:06] <vince_the_ponder> I have a question about how to check if a computer has Internet connection, what is the most common way to check if a PC has Internet access? Do you browse to a web page or ping google.com or something?
[00:06] <Lorne> haven't been able to get a terminal or menu or anything.... just dead PSOD
[00:06] <ToeSnacks> OerHeks: thanks
[00:07] <Lorne> I googled the forums for it....and there was some discussion for v12... but not much for v14....
[00:08] <Lorne> Can I use a bootstick to "repair" my ubuntu?
[00:09] <Bashing-om> vince_the_ponder: -> ping -c3 <IP_ADDRESS> , ping -c3 ubuntu.com <- verifies DNS .
[00:10] <vince_the_ponder> Bashing-om, thanks, I guess <IP_ADDRESS> is the address Google has decided will never fail then? (recognize it as their DNS server address
[00:11] <Moonlightning> I'm getting an error that a /dev/mapper device doesn't exist on boot. I poked around in the initramfs shell, and noticed that it didn't seem to have a `cryptsetup` binary. I've tried booting into a live system, chrooting into the installation, and then reinstalling the cryptsetup package and running `update-initramfs`, but it doesn't seem to have helped. Any ideas?
[00:11] <vince_the_ponder> Lorne, is the ubuntu installation on actual hardware or is it a VM? Regardless the bootstick is very useful tool and could be used to repair your installation
[00:13] <ToeSnacks> I appear to have ruined dpkg/apt somehow. When trying to run apt-get upgrade or apt-get autoremove or dpkg --configure -a I get this http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=qTau6Q3y
[00:14] <tallymarkd> anyone know anything about conky?
[00:14] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: sudo apt-get -f install
[00:15] <tallymarkd> whats -f?
[00:15] <vince_the_ponder> force
[00:15] <hkrrsx> ^^
[00:15] <tallymarkd> oh. well i have conky installed already i just dont understand it. i get its like rainmeter but im not sure..
[00:15] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: will try, thank you
[00:16] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: does -f work for --configure on dpkg as well?
[00:16] <bzmer> hi everyone -- i just mounted an iso file using the file browser GUI, but i want to know how to go to the mounted directory in terminal. could you tell me about this?
[00:16] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: " apt-get -f install " and " dpkg --configure " do 2 different things
[00:16] <hkrrsx> As far as I know, anyways
[00:16] <k1l> !conky | tallymarkd
[00:17] <Moonlightning> bzmer: if you don't know where it mounted, you can invoke `mount` with no arguments to get a list of mounted filesystems.
[00:17] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: dpkg is called by apt isn't it?
[00:17] <k1l> tallymarkd: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpConky
[00:17] <tallymarkd> what is !conky like attention? confused
[00:17] <hkrrsx> !man dpkg
[00:17] <bzmer> Moonlightning: i did that (because i tried to google that), but i can't see anything in mount that seems relevant...this is a matlab ISO i got from my university department's IT person...
[00:17] <k1l> tallymarkd: conky is that what you tell it should be. see the several conky desktop pics to get a clue what is possible
[00:18] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: dpkg and apt-get work independently of each other
[00:18] <tallymarkd> ok. i have the manager installed but okay. thanks
[00:18] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks, dpkg will install a local .deb file, apt-get will install from a remote repository
[00:19] <bzmer> Moonlightning: if i right click in the open folder showing the stuff that was mounted, i get the following for "name": / on R2014b_glnxa64.iso
[00:19] <bzmer> Moonlightning: i see *nothing* like that in the output that mount gives me
[00:19] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: See these links for the man pages to those commands ..... http://linux.die.net/man/8/apt-get --- http://linux.die.net/man/1/dpkg
[00:19] <Moonlightning> bzmer: as far as I can tell, `mount` lists them in the order they were mounted, so it should be the last one. Also try looking for the name of the .iso in the output, or things mounted under /media—I think that's where the GUI mounts things.
[00:20] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: thanks
[00:20] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: doesnt seem to work
[00:20] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: it says that the package is at the latest version
[00:21] <bzmer> Moonlightning: this is the last thing listed by mount: gvfsd-fuse on /run/user/1000/gvfs type fuse.gvfsd-fuse (rw,nosuid,nodev,user=brian)
[00:21] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: Great, then the package (software) is already installed and updated
[00:21] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: when I run upgrade apt still thinks it needs to install it however
[00:21] <Moonlightning> bzmer: well, if `mount` doesn't display it, I dunno what to tell you.
[00:22] <bzmer> moon
[00:22] <bzmer> Moonlightning: hmm, oh well. thanks
[00:23] <pi_user_84> greetings everyone
[00:23] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: apt says the packages are partially configured
[00:23] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: What's the output from apt-get -f install ?
[00:23] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: In pastebin if it's lengthy output, please
[00:24] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: it's basically the same output from my original pastebin
[00:25] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: Have you run apt-get update && apt-get upgrade ?
[00:26] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: yes
[00:26] <ObrienDave> apt-get dist-upgrade?
[00:27] <ToeSnacks> ObrienDave: yes
[00:27] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: how about apt-get build-dep which should download and install the dependencies first
[00:27] <hkrrsx> Then try installing your initial packages
[00:28] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: I had no initial packages this started happening after a dist-upgrade
[00:29] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: the 2nd line from your pastebin says you are trying to install cloud-init mountall postgresql, etc .... those are the "initial" packages I meant
[00:29] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: I will try running the build-dep command against one of the failing packages though
[00:29] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: ah alright I ran sudo apt-get build-dep cloud-init and still get the same output as before
[00:30] <hkrrsx> sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
[00:30] <hkrrsx> ?
[00:30] <ToeSnacks> alright I'll pastebin the output when it's done
[00:30] <hkrrsx> Running out of ideas here .... sudo apt-get -f install should have fixed everything
[00:30] <ToeSnacks> it's seems to be working on it
[00:31] <ToeSnacks> I can describe the situation in more detail if you think it would help
[00:31] <oldsk00l> i have a question i have ubuntu 12.04 pentium 4 3.2 ghz 3 gb ramm i have amba and zoneminder installd can i upgrade to 14.04 wit no problems ?
[00:31] <hkrrsx> Let dpkg-reconfigure finish
[00:32] <oldsk00l> ps i have a 265 mb video card of msi gforce a old one
[00:32] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: yes of course, I meant while we wait I can describe the steps leading up to the error
[00:32] <oldsk00l> amba is samba
[00:33] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, a fresh install would be better otherwise it may be a royal disaster
[00:33] <oldsk00l> @jiohdi tnx
[00:34] <elseJun> hahahhha
[00:34] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, otherwise you need to upgrade in steps from 12.4 to 12.10 to 13.4 to 13.10 etc
[00:34] <oldsk00l> does 14.04 doenst make it slower ?
[00:34] <oldsk00l> oke :P
[00:35] <oldsk00l> better a clean install :P than a clean install it wil be :P
[00:36] <jiohdi> much better
[00:36] <jiohdi> much faster too
[00:36] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: dpkg-reconfigure -a finished running and I ran apt-get update and upgrade to test, the same issue persists.
[00:36] <oldsk00l> and does it mater that i have a old machine ?
[00:36] <Guest38310> hello. i am newish to linux and am looking to learn as much as i can about computers and linux. does anyone have any suggestions on where to start learning?
[00:36] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, your specs seems good enough to run ubuntu
[00:36] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: is it the " No apport report written because MaxReports is reached already " error ?
[00:36] <ToeSnacks> http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=ZhkMYCdn
[00:36] <hkrrsx> thanks
[00:36] <hkrrsx> checking
[00:37] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, if things get too slow you can use lubuntu
[00:37] <oldsk00l> jiohdi thats write :P
[00:38] <oldsk00l> i have 12.04 4 over than a year know
[00:38] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: Have a look at http://askubuntu.com/questions/31667/what-does-no-apport-report-written-because-maxreports-is-reached-already-mean and see the accepted answer (green checkmark)
[00:38] <jiohdi> I only have 2gigs of ram and the machine is like 5 and I am running ubuntu 15.4
[00:38] <oldsk00l> in the begining i heard there were preformence isius
[00:38] <k1l> Guest38310: install ubuntu and start using it.
[00:38] <oldsk00l> and does in run smooth
[00:39] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, I am using open box and an lxpanel and it runs fine
[00:39] <oldsk00l> wat processor do you have ?
[00:39] <vince_the_ponder> Guest38310 try a little of everything because some things you may not like start by using an operating system you can dissect
[00:39] <Guest38310> lol i downloaded kubuntu and all of the ubuntu desktops including ubuntu, lubuntu, and xubuntu to test which GUI i like the best, and i have been using it off and on for years
[00:39] <Arrick> how does one put the task bar on the bottom of the screen?
[00:39] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, not really sure, its an e-machine with nvidia
[00:40] <oldsk00l> oke buth my pentium 4 3.2 ghz would not be a problem
[00:40] <Guest38310> but it doesn't help me delve deeper into the command line and i would like to eventually move to linux as part of a career
[00:40] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, I think thats a lot more than I have... but is it 64bit?
[00:40] <oldsk00l> jiohdi, tnx :p
[00:41] <oldsk00l> jiohdi, nope 32 bit
[00:41] <oldsk00l> 12.04
[00:41] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, not sure if thats an issue yet
[00:41] <vince_the_ponder> Guest38310 instead of jumping into the deep end start with a fresh installation of ubuntu, then customize to your liking by using terminal and nano, then move onto simple scripting, then see if you like python as a language.
[00:41] <oldsk00l> better 2 use 64 bit
[00:41] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, I means your box not the software
[00:42] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: should I just '> /var/crash/procps.0.crash' to clear the log and try again?
[00:42] <Guest38310> that is the thing, i don't know what nano is or how to customize.
[00:42] <oldsk00l> i dont tink its a 64 bit
[00:42] <Guest38310> i only know basics like cd pwd and ls
[00:42] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: Actually, I found another resource that suggests deleting the .crash files , not just zeroing them out
[00:42] <Arrick> Got it.
[00:42] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: will try that
[00:42] <hkrrsx> Try deleting 1 or 2 and then run the dpkg-reconfigure -a  again
[00:42] <jiohdi> Guest38310, nano is just a text editor for terminals
[00:43] <oldsk00l> can that be the problem ?
[00:43] <hkrrsx> If that works, then perhaps remove the rest of the .crash files
[00:43] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: there was only one file the /var/crash
[00:43] <ToeSnacks> and it's was onky 99k
[00:43] <hkrrsx> Ok
[00:43] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, it could be if you install 64bit software on a 32bit machine
[00:43] <hkrrsx> Hope this fixes your issue b/c I'm leaving in ~10 minutes
[00:44] <hiexpo> man nano
[00:44] <oldsk00l> jiohdi, i think it is a 64 bit ist a box white sata conections :P
[00:44] <oldsk00l> and i have instalt 32 bit 12.04
[00:44] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, check the specs on your processor, only way to tell
[00:44] <oldsk00l> oke :P
[00:45] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: either way thanks for your help
[00:45] <hkrrsx> You're welcome, thanks for the respect
[00:45] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, under 4gigs of ram you can run 32bit software, but you can't run 64bit software on a 32bit processor
[00:46] <hiexpo> run top oldsk00l see whats running
[00:47] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: alright I killed the log and reran dpkg-reconfigure and apt update/upgrade and still have the same errors
[00:47] <hkrrsx> http://askubuntu.com/questions/378883/problem-with-package-installation-linux-image-server
[00:47] <hkrrsx> The accepted answer calls for you to reboot
[00:47] <hkrrsx> I'll probably be gone by the time you come back
[00:48] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, PC (Intel x86) desktop image is availible for 32bit machines. if you are not sure it will work on 64bit machines too
[00:48] <hkrrsx> Best of luck with the issue if that doesn't resolve it
[00:48] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: this isn't the machine
[00:48] <Guest38310> how do i learn bash scripting?
[00:48] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: but thank you again for all your time
[00:48] <hkrrsx> :)
[00:48] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: the machine is a aws instance
[00:48] <oldsk00l> Architecture:          i686
[00:48] <oldsk00l> CPU op-mode(s):        32-bit

[00:49] <ToeSnacks> it failed to start up after a kernel upgrade and I had to remount the drive on a different vm and alter the grub config to boot on the previous kernel
[00:49] <ToeSnacks> now it's starting from the previous kernel and that's when it started doing this
[00:49] <hiexpo> Guest38310, http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html
[00:50] <Guest38310> thanks hiexpo
[00:50] <hiexpo> yup
[00:50] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, PC (Intel x86) desktop image it is
[00:50] <hkrrsx> do you have a 3rd oldest kernel installed?
[00:51] <jakesyl> Hey, so I'm trying to install ubuntu alongside windows 8.1 and using empty space for it, so on windows 8 it says that it is unallocated space but ubuntu says it is fat 16 so i don't think i can create partitions using that space, any ideas?
[00:51] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: yes I think there are probably about 7 on there
[00:51] <ToeSnacks> is that likely to be the issue?
[00:51] <hkrrsx> Try booting into the 3rd oldest and try again
[00:51] <oldsk00l> jiohdi, yep
[00:51] <jiohdi> jakesyl, use  gparted and clear out that space
[00:52] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: could it be the kernel downgrade causing the issue?
[00:53] <jakesyl> alright, let me try that
[00:53] <Bashing-om> Guest38310: also: http://blog.jdpfu.com/2014/12/28/learning-linux . Good intro tutorials.
[00:53] <hkrrsx> ToeSnacks: it could be .... never know the answer to a problem until you reach it
[00:53] <ToeSnacks> maybe apt is trying to configure agains the newer kernel and failing due to the kernel version being different than what it's expecting?
[00:53] <oldsk00l> jiohdi, long live putty :p
[00:54] <jiohdi> oldsk00l, when it gets too old there is always a puppy varient
[00:54] <jakesyl> alright, I'm in gparted
[00:54] <oldsk00l> jiohdi, yep long live puppy :P
[00:55] <ToeSnacks> hkrrsx: anyway have a good night
[00:55] <hkrrsx> thanks, you too
[00:55] <jakesyl> it's now showing up as unallocated..
[00:55] <jakesyl> (odd)
[00:56] <jiohdi> jakesyl, does it have an sdX id?
[00:56] <jakesyl> (apoligies) how do i find out?
[00:57] <jiohdi> jakesyl,
[00:57] <jiohdi> when it shows the partitions how does it designate them
[00:58] <jiohdi> you should be seeing sd1 for the main and maybe sd2 for recovery etc
[00:58] <bekks> There is no sd1 or sd2.
[00:58] <jiohdi> or sda sdb
[00:58] <bekks> There are sda, sdb, etc.
[00:58] <jakesyl> there is an sdb1
[00:58] <Moonlightning> What happens after sdz? :o
[00:58] <bekks> Which is partition 1 on sdb.
[00:59] <bekks> Moonlightning: sdaa is the next block device.
[00:59] <Moonlightning> :D
[00:59] <jiohdi> jakesyl, is there that for the unallocated space?
[00:59] <bekks> I've seen around 1100 block devices on a single server, myself.
[00:59] <jakesyl> nope
[00:59] <bekks> Try counting...
[00:59] <jiohdi> jakesyl, is there any designation for the un-allocated space?
[01:00] <jakesyl> no
[01:00] <jiohdi> jakesyl, then you should be good to go
[01:01] <jakesyl> alright but back on the install screen it says 1mb of free space
[01:02] <jiohdi> jakesyl, next option is to partition it
[01:07] <balrog-k1n> I have a grub problem that I think a lot of people upgrading from earlier version have where i386 grub boots up every time and can't find its modules because everything has been updated to x86_64, how do I get rid of the i386 grub?
[01:07] <balrog-k1n> I've tried grub-install --target=x86_64-efi on all possible devices
[01:07] <ObrienDave> jakesyl, the 1mb is normal. it can't allocate the drive 100%
[01:08] <gangil> Hi, Is there a way I can host a debian repo on a rhel machine? I am unable to install reprepro on rhel
[01:08] <ObrienDave> jakesyl, something about cylinder boundaries. not to worry
[01:08] <gangil> ?
[01:08] <balrog-k1n> and it works just fine, only when i reboot the i386 grub runs
[01:10] <Guest59808> Hi, I have a problem that'll sound really stupid but since I did an upgrade to 14.10 through the Software Updater GUI, the highlight color is bright pink (using XFCE) and I can't find any way to change it, Appearance, Theme configuration, and Window Manager settings don't affect it.
[01:10] <Guest59808> Any idea?
[01:12] <crepple> balrog-k1n I'm just reading about Boot Repair https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair - I've read about something called fix grub and I'm just looking for that.
[01:14] <Bashing-om> !boot-repair | crepple balrog-k1n ::
[01:14] <balrog-k1n> crepple: hmm I'll try that but I really wonder where that i386 grub is sitting right now, I think something is very wrong
[01:14] <balrog-k1n> it shouldn't be anywhere on the system at this point
[01:16] <Guest59808> Figured out my problem, sorry for disturbing
[01:19] <yandu> .
[01:19] <crepple> balrog-k1n This also looks interesting http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ I've never really had  boot issues present themselves. I should probably read more in case they do
[01:31] <decadence18> I'm trying to configure sendmail and.. well. it's not working. It hangs after every command, no matter what command it is
[01:31] <jeremiah__> decadence18: Is there are reason you're using Sendmail?
[01:32] <jeremiah__> Are you just trying to "send mail" or do you really want an MTA?
[01:32] <jeremiah__> If you really want an MTA, why Sendmail?
[01:32] <decadence18> I'm attempting (emphasis on attempting) to configure fail2ban to send emails @jeremiah
[01:32] <jeremiah__> Ah, I see
[01:32] <decadence18> And i know nothing about this; I'm learning
[01:32] <jeremiah__> decadence18: :-)
[01:32] <vince_the_ponder> you dont by any chance use gmail right ?
[01:33] <decadence18> @vince I do, yes. @jeremiah ?
[01:33] <vince_the_ponder> sendmail and gmail hated each other when i tried to get them to play along nicely.
[01:33] <owen1> apt-get update => Failed to fetch https://get.docker.com/ubuntu/dists/docker/main/binary-amd64/Packages  server certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CRLfile: none
[01:33] <jeremiah__> Sendmail is an old and hard to configure tool.
[01:33] <vince_the_ponder> its do-able, but a very arduous process
[01:33] <jeremiah__> Look into configuring what is likely already on your system; exim for example
[01:34] <decadence18> What comes default with Ubuntu 14.04, if anything?
[01:34] <jeremiah__> decadence18: I imagine exim is the default since it is the default in debian
[01:34] <jeremiah__> do this; sudo which exim
[01:34] <jeremiah__> to see if it is on the machine
[01:34] <decadence18> Nope
[01:35] <jeremiah__> Or you can call aptitude like this; aptitude show exim
[01:35] <jakesyl> So i made all my partitins and stuff and when i try to designate a / file system as root it says no mount point
[01:35] <jeremiah__> Ah, I should have told you to use the proper package name; exim4-daemon-light
[01:36] <decadence18> Still no results for it as far as I can tell
[01:36] <jeremiah__> decadence18: try this; 'aptitude show exim4-daemon-light' or 'aptitude show exim4-daemon-heavy'
[01:37] <jeremiah__> Hmm. decadence18 do you have xmail on your system?
[01:38] <jeremiah__> Did you install Sendmail, or was it already on your system
[01:38] <decadence18> Nope, not that either.
[01:38] <decadence18> And I installed it
[01:38] <jeremiah__> Usually it is symlinked
[01:38] <jeremiah__> Ah, okay
[01:38] <vince_the_ponder> decadence18, "sudo apt-get install exim4" boom you have exim4
[01:38] <jeremiah__> Now I understand. You likely did not get a default MTA since perhaps you're using a server install.
[01:38] <jeremiah__> Makes sense.
[01:39] <jeremiah__> In any case, I stopped configuring Sendmail years ago unfortunately and won't be much help there.
[01:39] <jeremiah__> I can help a bit with exim, or other MTAs.
[01:39] <decadence18> Have you ever used exim or anything with fail2ban?
[01:39] <jeremiah__> decadence18: Yes, I think I have a working config running now.
[01:39] <jeremiah__> :-)
[01:39] <decadence18> Well, let me try attempting that
[01:39] <jeremiah__> What are you banning? ssh brute force attacks?
[01:40] <jeremiah__> Because my solution for that is sshguard
[01:40] <jeremiah__> Which is pretty good
[01:40] <decadence18> Along with, hopefully, apache
[01:40] <jeremiah__> I also switch my ssh daemon port to something non-obvious.
[01:40] <jeremiah__> But your users might have to use port 22 so I don't know if my solution will work for you
[01:40] <jeremiah__> fail2ban should support apache and ssh out-of-the-box
[01:41] <creature> Has anyone else had any issues with the broadcom BCM43142 wireless card on ubuntu, I have had a google and tried a few things but still nothing is working. Thanks
[01:41] <jeremiah__> Its a non-obvious configuration file
[01:41] <jeremiah__> Though its well documented
[01:41] <decadence18> It does, my problem is getting the email support. I THINK i have the jail.conf/local set up.
[01:41] <jeremiah__> creature: Do you have the latest drivers?
[01:42] <jeremiah__> decadence18: I only enabled the jail and log files. I didn't enable email support since I use logwatch to email me my logs daily.
[01:42] <creature> yeah, I have also tried using the additional drivers under the ubuntu settings
[01:43] <decadence18> I'm not using that, but I've noticed some odd login attempts (very  odd considering very few people have my IP), and so I'm attempting to monitor them
[01:43] <jeremiah__> creature: More than upgrading the drivers I don't really have any advice, I'm not familiar with the hardware. :-/
[01:43] <jeremiah__> decadence18: Likely just skiddies. But always worth checking out.
[01:43] <jeremiah__> You can read /var/log/auth.log to find out logins.
[01:44] <jeremiah__> That is good readhing. :-)
[01:44] <decadence18> @jeremiah Apparently I have a package utilizing rmail
[01:44] <creature>  no worries, getting ubuntu installed alongside windows on the new hp uefi bios was enough of a pain as it is
[01:44] <jeremiah__> decadence18: interesting. :-)
[01:44] <jeremiah__> creaux: :-) Sounds . . . complex.
[01:45] <decadence18> I have no idea how to use that either. xD
[01:45] <jeremiah__> heh, nor do I
[01:49] <decadence18> Okay so I tried reinstalling sendmail, and I got a warning "WARNING: local host name (...) is not qualified"
[01:50] <decadence18> any idea why?
[01:52] <macibookg3> Hi first time here
[01:52] <Bashing-om> jakesyl: Back up to the initial install screen, choose "change" and in the next screen set the mount point '/' .
[01:53] <Bashing-om> macibookg3: Welcome, you have a support question ?
[01:53] <vince_the_ponder> decadence18, you dont have a FQDN (domain name like google.com) and your hostname does not resolve to an IP address as far as sendmail could tell
[01:54] <macibookg3> I have a MacBook Pro 8.1 Late 2011 I would like to install 14.04LTS on it as a second OS or on its own
[01:54] <decadence18> And how would I fix said warning?

[02:50] <evilbug> are there no more arm versions of ubuntu or am i not looking in the right place?
[02:51] <evilbug> nevermind, found it.
[02:52] <macibookg3>  I have a PowerBook Pro8.1 Late 2011.  I have downloaded ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso and used UNetbootin to put it on a USB 8GB Stick but I can not get my Mac to boot from it .  please help. I would like to be able to install it as a second OS or on its own
[02:52] <not_dammit> how's the state of surface pro 3 support for ubuntu?
[02:54] <not_dammit> macibookg3, powerbooks aren't made past 2006
[02:55] <not_dammit> are you sure you're not using a macbook pro?
[02:55] <evilbug> macibookg3: you mean macbook pro? you need something like http://sourceforge.net/projects/refind/
[02:56] <not_dammit> ^
[02:56] <macibookg3> yes you are right
[02:56] <not_dammit> it's an issue with the boot manager of OSX
[02:56] <not_dammit> it only recognises darwin/win32 systems
[02:56] <macibookg3>  I have a MacBook Pro8.1 Late 2011.  I have downloaded ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso and used UNetbootin to put it on a USB 8GB Stick but I can not get my Mac to boot from it .  please help. I would like to be able to install it as a second OS or on its own
[02:57] <not_dammit> you'd need an EFI tool like rEFInd or rEFIt
[02:57] <evilbug> macibookg3: dude, check out youtube, there are plenty of videos on that subject which should help you out.
[02:57] <evilbug> macibookg3: do a search for 'ubuntu mac' and voila.
[02:58] <somsip> !mac | macibookg3
[02:58] <not_dammit> rEFIt is kinda old
[02:58] <macibookg3> I tried to use rEFIt but that dose not seem to work boot manager dose not come up.  Also I have Mac OS 10.10.2
[02:59] <not_dammit> macibookg3, http://refit.sourceforge.net/doc/c1s3_remove.html
[02:59] <vince_the_ponder> macibookg3, you are attempting to do something that apple is not fully in agreement with, so they make you jump through hoops
[02:59] <not_dammit> then install rEFInd
[02:59] <not_dammit> Apple's ecosystem tends to be.... anally closed
[03:00] <vince_the_ponder> thats why the bloat so much :-P
[03:00] <not_dammit> I mean, it's not so much bloat, as it is a development philosophy
[03:00] <not_dammit> anyone know of the state of ubuntu on Surface Pro 3?
[03:01] <vince_the_ponder> mine was a constipation joke..
[03:01] <not_dammit> DAMMIT
[03:01] <not_dammit> I'm tired, ignore me
[03:01] <vince_the_ponder> ive officially turned over three of my mates at work over to linux full time on their home pc's
[03:02] <not_dammit> I game a lot, so I use windows most of the time, but I'll be damned if it isn't painful to do any remotely technical thing on it

[03:45] <LTS14N00b> I am having trouble with my FujiXerox printer driver where I can't get it to duplex print, even though one of the options is to duplex. I am using the official FX driver from the website links, but to no avail.

[03:57] <solomonix> here's a tricky one . . . is there a way I can redirect standard input to a pipe?  i.e. I have a script being called with "echo 'somestuffhere' > myscript" and I need to mimic the behavior as if it was "echo 'somestuffhere' | myscript"
[04:03] <BlackDalek> How do I install Ubuntu 14.04 as guest OS in virtualbox virtual machine on my mac running host OS MacOS 10.6.8? Mac can't even mount the installation ISO.
[04:04] <cfhowlett> BlackDalek, physical USB?
[04:07] <LTS14N00b> I have booted a live CD of 14.04 (64Bit) on my Laptop computer (Which I had Ubuntu on before and everything worked OK) and the Wifi is not recognised, it acts as if there is no wifi in the lap top at all..
[04:07] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, which wifi?  broadcom??
[04:07] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, if broadcom = easily fixed
[04:08] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: You've got me on that one.. How do I check?
[04:09] <cfhowlett> !broadcom | LTS14N00b
[04:10] <BlackDalek> cfhowlett, don't have access to a free usb :( I was hoping there would be some way to convince the mac to use the ISO or a burnt DVD.
[04:10] <cfhowlett> BlackDalek, and my question is: in what form is the ISO?  do you have it on a USB or what?
[04:11] <BlackDalek> cfhowlett oh sorry... I thought you were making a suggestion... I have it as a downloaded ISO and a DVD I burned from the ISO.
[04:11] <cfhowlett> BlackDalek, perfect
[04:12] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: Yes, it's a Broadcom BCM4318 (going by the Ubottu link)
[04:13] <cfhowlett> BlackDalek, using the downloaded iso: go to virtualbox, Device menu: CD/DVD, unmount whatever is there, and mount your iso
[04:13] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, you'll like this:
[04:13] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, navigate to filesystem>pool>main>D>dksm
[04:13] <cfhowlett> *dkms*
[04:13] <cfhowlett> sudo dpkg -t dkmsFOO.deb
[04:14] <cfhowlett> "FOO" = I ain't typing all that mess
[04:16] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, then do the same with filesystem>pool>restricted>b>broadcom>bcmwl-kernel-source_FOO
[04:16] <BlackDalek> cfhowlett.. can't actually get that far. Virtualbox dies at the virtual machine creation stage when it asks for an OS to load onto it. So can't ever get to the stage where I can access the "devices" menu for the virutal machine.
[04:17] <cfhowlett> BlackDalek, could be #vbox failing, could be a MAC specific issue.  Can't help with those.  sorry.
[04:17] <cfhowlett> !mac | BlackDalek
[04:17] <cfhowlett> !vbox | BlackDalek
[04:19] <ForTheWin> what do you guys prefer, lubuntu or lxle?
[04:19] <cfhowlett> ForTheWin, gee let's think.  lubuntu = official ubuntu distro.  lxle = not.  this is ubuntu support so .... lubuntu FTW!
[04:20] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: I can't find it. I'm still fairly green with Linux.
[04:20] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, open you file manager; nautilus IIRC
[04:21] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: Open
[04:21] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, wait 1: firing up a virtual machine

[04:26] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, not your fault: my previous instructions were inaccurate.   sorry.
[04:28] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: Yes, I see similar and am in the pool folder with "main" and "restricted" folders showing only
[04:28] <tripelb> Help. 14.04 gnome 2D. I clicked on the example sont.ogg swann something. OK I heard it and hated it so I clicked the program closed.

This is not the way a system should behave.
[04:28] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, great.  main > d > dkms
[04:29] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: In the "main" folder I only see b43-fwcutter"
[04:29] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, MAIN!
[04:29] <cfhowlett> you are in the restricted folder
[04:30] <cfhowlett> and you must dpkg -i dkms first
[04:30] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: I dont' know how I got in there, maybe lag in the computer and I ended up there. I see it now...
[04:30] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, PEBKAS error    :)
[04:30] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: there is a deb file in there dkms_<IP_ADDRESS>-1.1ubuntu5_all
[04:31] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, sudo dpkg -i that file

[04:31] <tripelb> NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.88.run: command not found  (but the command is there and I can cat it and get horrid binary output) It is a file to install the driver. I did it with the --check option to check the file and same thing.
[04:32] <mewtwo> http://askubuntu.com/questions/601812/kernel-on-ubuntu-partition-has-stopped-working can someone help me with this?
[04:36] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: It is processing at the moment. This would be the same procedure if it is installed on the HDD, except for the path of course?
[04:36] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, nope.
[04:37] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: Just when I thought I was getting used to it LOL - I have the command line back.
[04:37] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, for some reason, broadcom doesn't always work on a live session.  installation to permanent storage generally works
[04:37] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, they do pull you back in :)
[04:38] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, same operation for the next .deb   restricted > b > bcmwl > broadcom-kernel-source-FOO.deb
[04:42] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: It's processing now. What path would I need to use for once I install onto the HDD?
[04:43] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, it should automagically configure.  if not, plug in your ubuntu boot USB and dpkg -i these 2 files to your hdd
[04:44] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: Ah, OK, is this because I've just dpkg'd both these packages or normally (I have a friend who is having the same problem and he has installed onto HDD, but not sure as to what brand of WiFi dongle he is using)
[04:45] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, this procedure has worked on every broadcom b43** chipset I've encountered.  I can't advise on other broadcom or non-broadcom models.
[04:46] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: That's OK. As long as I can ge tmy laptop running, I can then latch onto his network and get back onto this forum for the WiFi dongle issue...
[04:47] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, as far as dongles go, I'd advise trashing any dongle that fails and getting a known replacement.  they're cheap
[04:49] <Besogon> good day. Did someone install vagrant from official site using deb[64]? I can't start vagrant after installation. It halts with error: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 2.0.0p598 (2014-11-13 revision 48408) [x86_64-linux]

[05:31] <systemd0wn> Question, using the desktop networking widget I attempted to create a bonded interface for eth0 and wlan0. However, after realizing it wouldn't let me pick my wlan0 I decided nevermind. But now I can't delete the network interface it has created. Help?
[05:32] <drakedouay> My default keyboard layout is dvorak, but I switched it to qwerty today. For some reason every window is qwerty except steam. Any idea why steam would still be using dvorak?
[05:33] <systemd0wn> drakedouay: is there perhaps a steam settings file that it's reading from?
[05:33] <LTS14N00b> cfhowlett: Thanks for your help, the laptop is still churning away (I am waiting for the memory upgrade to arrive) - it failed beacuse it was read only media. I will keep a copy of your directions for when I install on the HDD.
[05:34] <drakedouay> systemd0wn: that would be awesome if true. Only reason to switch to qwerty is for steam.... checking ....
[05:34] <systemd0wn> drakedouay: perhaps in one of these places? http://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/0/846939854175874788/
[05:34] <cfhowlett> LTS14N00b, happy2help!
[05:42] <systemd0wn> Anyone know much about bonded interfaces?
[05:51] <Patero-ng> does it runs the same speed if I install ubuntu then running it from a external HD iso image
[05:52] <drakedouay> systemd0wn: doesn't seem to be it. I deleted all the steam files and uninstalled. Then made sure I had the correct keyboard selected and reinstalled, still dvorak
[05:52] <cyborgcygnus> Using DD I cloned a 160gbs encrypted hdd to a 500gb hdd. The line was similar to this "dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb conv=noerror,sync bs=1024", is bs the block size? Is it important to get that the same size as the first hdd?
[05:53] <systemd0wn> drakedouay: huh. that's certainly odd. You just reminded me I ought to install steam so I'll poke about when it's done and see what I see.

[05:58] <cyborgcygnus> edition, Do you just want to get rid of bootloaders altogether & return to booting windows normally?
[06:00] <systemd0wn> drakedouay: perhaps? I doubt it, but maybe.
[06:00] <edition> dualboot ubuntu and windows.
[06:01] <cyborgcygnus> edition, what's wrong with grub? There's an app you can install to set windows as the first boot choice instead of windows if that's the problem
[06:01] <cyborgcygnus> Instead of ubuntu*

[06:35] <edition> Before I install, does Ubuntu have stable graphics card drivers for AMD Vision cards?
[06:35] <Loshki> pgunnars: dunno what to tell you. Read the docs for your hex editor. I would use emacs personally, but that doesn't help you at all.
[06:36] <mewtwo> edition: i have an A6 AMD vision and havent had any issues
[06:36] <mewtwo> well, nothing related to graphics card drivers
[06:36] <Loshki> edition: also, the live cd is meant to allow you to test if your hardware work before committing to an install.

[07:10] <SVCR3D-SHVD0WS> o shit i forgot its that easy... high as fuck over here
[07:10] <somsip> SVCR3D-SHVD0WS: watch the language, and offtopic chat belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:15] <Sidju_> Good day to thee. I'm currently experiencing a problem that makes all of the shutdown, suspend and hibernate shortcuts in the shutdown menu all open the logout/lock menu. Shutting down through terminal works.
[07:16] <Sidju_> Does anybody have any idea of how to solve that?
[07:23] <SVCR3D-SHVD0WS> somsip, my bad no bad intentions over here homie
[07:24] <SVCR3D-SHVD0WS> somsip, what exactley does ubuntu-offtopic cover? just like simply anything with ubuntu but off topic from ubuntu if that makes sense. so like generally computers NSFW kinda shit?
[07:25] <cfhowlett> SVCR3D-SHVD0WS, you were asked to dial back the profanity.  you are violating the guidelines.  stop.  now
[07:25] <cfhowlett> !guidelines | SVCR3D-SHVD0WS
[07:27] <ObrienDave> SVCR3D-SHVD0WS, ALL ubuntu channels request you act in a family-friendly manner
[07:30] <mutual> SVCR3D-SHVD0WS, #ubuntu-offtopic is for non-support related talk for users of #ubuntu.  NSFW content and profanity will not be tolerated.
[07:32] <readid> killall
[07:36] <SVCR3D-SHVD0WS> sorry dudes i didint know we could say sh**
[07:37] <ObrienDave> *sighs*
[07:38] <SVCR3D-SHVD0WS> ObrienDave, you like drake? lmfao?
[07:39]  * ObrienDave loves a good /ignore command
[07:39] <somsip> ObrienDave: funnily enough, I just did that too :)
[07:40] <ObrienDave> great minds think alike :)
[07:40] <mutual> SVCR3D-SHVD0WS, talking about drake is not allowed here.  this is for support only.
[07:40] <mutual> SVCR3D-SHVD0WS, and I believe that censoring yourself with asterisks is also not allowed.
[07:41] <fizk_> Is there a way to set a limit on how many TCP connections can idle in the CLOSE_WAIT state?
[07:41] <somsip> !ignore | mutual (not worth calling the ops, he'll soon get bored and leave)
[07:41] <mutual> somsip, i know, i'm just letting him know
[07:41] <somsip> mutual: fair enough. He;s just a stoned troll. If he gets abusive, just signal the ops
[07:42] <mutual> somsip, yup
[07:42] <ObrienDave> he gives us old stoners a bad name ;P
[07:43] <mutual> ObrienDave, #ubuntu-offtopic ;P
[07:43] <somsip> ObrienDave: I've had my day. He;s just learning how to grow up. Still, !ot and !illegal (probably)
[07:43] <mutual> !illegal
[07:43] <mutual> ah.
[07:43] <ObrienDave> most definitely
[07:44] <mutual> somsip marijuana is not illegal everywhere though.  it's still offtopic without a doubt though.
[07:44] <somsip> mutual: yes. And no more from me on this
[07:44] <mutual> ok.
[07:45] <cfhowlett> ObrienDave, !  I KNEW it!
[07:45] <mutual> cfhowlett, #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:46] <mutual> :)
[07:46] <cfhowlett> mutual, OK
[07:46] <ObrienDave> ;P
[07:46] <somsip> :-L surely?
[07:56] <cyborgcygnus> Anyone know how to resize an encrypted partition to fill the remaining hdd size from a live ubuntu usb?
[07:57] <dsnyders> !backup
[08:00] <cyborgcygnus> !cloning
[08:08] <Peace-> why git push on github website sometime works and sometime it doesn't ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/10687957  btw   i did my .netrc , in this way http://paste.ubuntu.com/10687953   , git cloned with https
[08:11] <mutual> Peace-, you could try #git
[08:12] <Peace-> mutual: done there is a ddos attack on github website
[08:12] <Peace-> mutual: thank you for support
[08:13] <jkroon> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-2039786.html - i'm running into a similar issue.  the filesystem with the least free inodes is /usr with 8.5K free inodes, and that matches the error (error creating symbolic link `./usr/src/linux-headers-3.16.0-33-generic/scripts/kconfig/lkc.h': No space left on device).
[08:13] <jkroon> I just can't imagine linux-headers installing 8.5K files though ...
[08:14] <bindi> what's the iptables file location in ubuntu?
[08:14] <jkroon> where does apt/dpkg first extract the "image" to?
[08:14] <Peace-> jkroon: in your root ?
[08:15] <jkroon> there are no remnant files from the failure.
[08:15] <Peace->  /usr/src/ ??
[08:15] <Peace-> NO SPACE LEFT ON THE DEVICE
[08:15] <jkroon> meaning I'd at least expect the /usr/src/linux-headers-3.16.0-33-generic folder to exist.
[08:15] <Peace-> so i guess ...
[08:16] <jkroon> ok, so that does look viable.
[08:16] <jkroon> can I safely nuke everything under /usr/src/linux?
[08:16] <jkroon> can I safely nuke everything under /usr/src/*?
[08:16] <Peace-> jkroon: no
[08:17] <bindi> ugh
[08:17] <bindi> -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080
[08:17] <Peace-> jkroon: have your /home mounted on the same partition of /
[08:17] <bindi> i need to add this into my ubuntu vm (testing something) but this ufw thingie is kinda in my way >.<
[08:17] <Peace-> jkroon: if you don't know run sudo fdisk -l then paste the code
[08:17] <norc> bindi: Funny. Im trying to do the exact same thing but its not working :D
[08:17] <jkroon> ok, in /usr I've got 317M available, and 8.5K inodes ... that should be just fine.
[08:17] <bindi> norc: hah, do tell me if you get it working :P
[08:17] <norc> bindi: http://pastie.org/10056842
[08:18] <norc> I wish I could :D
[08:18] <adammm> ahh listen to those plates clang in this 2.5" drive.... sounds like a coo coo clock
[08:18] <bindi> norc: there are some ufw files in /etc/ufw
[08:18] <bindi> i'm gonna try before.rules
[08:18] <norc> bindi: My ufw is inactive
[08:18] <bindi> hm
[08:18] <bindi> mine isnt :P
[08:18] <jkroon> Peace-, /usr sits on LVM so the output from fdisk won't help you much.  I'll rather pastebin the output of df -h and df -hi for you here:  http://pastie.org/10056847
[08:19] <norc> I tried dnat, tried redirect, nothing seems to be working. :(
[08:20] <Peace-> jkroon:  86% /usr
[08:20] <Peace-> jkroon: so guess maybe it has some problem with that i guess
[08:21] <jkroon> Avail = 317M >> additional space used.
[08:22] <jkroon> ok, added a 1G to /usr, same problem.
[08:23] <jkroon> but don't worry, i'll figure something out.
[08:23] <vds> I get an interesting error tryinh to update ubuntu today: unable to install new version of `/usr/bin/sudo': Device or resource busy any suggestions?
[08:26] <jonatan_> Hello, ive ran into some wierd problems. Ive just installed ubuntu server 14.xx in a brand new pc. The installation is going well and after its done i remove the usb and restart. The boot screen rolls by and then nothing.
[08:27] <jonatan_> The screen is just black and i cant login, if i do the login in by freehand and spam enter nothing comes up. Ive tried CTRL ALT F1 F2, still nothing
[08:27] <jkroon> Peace-, I'd recommend a restriction gets added to the installed that / may not be smaller than 1G (assuming /var, /usr, /home, /tmp and /boot is on separate partitions).  Bigger for each of those that's not elsewhere.
[08:28] <jkroon> problem is /lib/modules/ that consumes approx 200MB / installed kernel.
[08:28] <jonatan_> I have the system installed on a 250gb ssd
[08:29] <Peace-> jonatan_: mmm have tyrou tried to boot from recovery kernel ?
[08:29] <Number5> Hello guys, I started a program for a long process from terminal. Now I'm not sure whether it's ready or not, so I want put the process as a background task so I can do some checks, like top. How can I achieve that if the program is already running?
[08:29] <jonatan_> No i have not Peace. I will have to look into how to do that
[08:30] <dreamon> Is there a tool out there, where it is possible to paste some often used textparts. for console or other belongs. Im getting old, an I hate it to google for so much things, I already did years ago. Like a database with important Lines I can easly paste somewhere?
[08:30] <Peace-> jonatan_: nothing when you reebot you should see the grubmenu  something like that http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_YAvrJXlqrg/UFSTdc6y66I/AAAAAAAAGlU/Q1-4AvXqoHg/s640/grub-recovery-mode-1.png
[08:31] <jonatan_> Peace, first its just mobo, then the grub menu where i pick boot ubuntu, then the screen rolls and everything loads then nothing
[08:32] <jonatan_> ah ok i see Peace- i will try
[08:32] <bindi> norc: any luck?
[08:32] <Peace-> dreamon: you need to redirect the standard output to a log file i guess
[08:34] <jonatan_> Peace- I could now drop into a root shell. But how do i fix so this problem dont occur next time?
[08:34] <Peace-> jonatan_: ok now you need to figure out why it doest that
[08:34] <jonatan_> Peace- yes.
[08:34] <Peace-> jonatan_: it could be a video driver problem
[08:35] <Peace-> so can you go in the standard shell now and try to do startx?
[08:35] <Peace-> jonatan_: i actually work on kubuntu so i do not know well ubuntu-unity but it should be that
[08:35] <Peace-> jonatan_: that is a fresh installation ?
[08:35] <jonatan_> Its not unity, its just cli server based ubuntu
[08:36] <Peace-> jonatan_: so .... better
[08:36] <Peace-> jonatan_: no video driver so ? right ?
[08:36] <jonatan_> No driver installed
[08:36] <norc> bindi: Yes. Though I doubt my solution is of any help to you.
[08:36] <Peace-> jonatan_: it just hangs and you can't get the konsole
[08:36] <jonatan_> yes
[08:36] <bindi> norc: do tell
[08:36] <Peace-> jonatan_: weird
[08:36] <norc> bindi: Though it might. I completely forgot I had a firewall between me and my server. ;)
[08:36] <Peace-> jonatan_: the installation is fresh or not ?
[08:37] <jonatan_> Fresh
[08:37] <Peace-> jonatan_: i am thinking
[08:37] <Peace-> jonatan_: yoiu have oonly ssd ?
[08:37] <jonatan_> No, there is a big hdd also in the system
[08:38] <Peace-> no flash no sd no other memoy stuff
[08:38] <jonatan_> No sd card in, just the hdd and ssd
[08:38] <Peace-> jonatan_: mmm so ... maybe could be an hang for the other hd
[08:38] <Peace-> jonatan_: have you checked the fstab?
[08:38] <norc> bindi: So on a scale from 1 to 10, how much did my solution help you? :p
[08:38] <jonatan_> No. What will i be looking for?
[08:39] <Peace-> jonatan_: could try to commet the line of the no-system hd\ssd ?
[08:40] <bindi> norc: i just removed ufw and started with a new rules.v4, seems to get me going :P and nah it didnt help, im playing with a vm
[08:40] <Peace-> *comment
[08:40] <dhilipan> hello
[08:40] <Peace-> jonatan_: when ubuntu has a bad fstab \ or there is a problem with fstab it could hang
[08:40] <norc> bindi: What network method and which virtualization software?
[08:40] <Peace-> jonatan_: you could try to press S to skip
[08:41] <Peace-> jonatan_: so you can reboot your machine when you see it hangs and it doesn't do anything you could try to press S
[08:41] <bindi> norc: it's connected to my physical network
[08:42] <norc> bindi: You mean bridged network?
[08:42] <norc> Or physically with some usb nic?
[08:42] <bindi> norc: i have a virtual switch that is attached to my physical network
[08:42] <jonatan_> Peace- ok I will try to press S the fstab didnt look weird
[08:43] <bojan> pls suggest me some idea on that i cant mount nfs share on other computer but i can mount that in the same computer i shared
[08:46] <jonatan_> Peace- We will leave this issue for now. Thanks for your help, but I have to do other things now

[09:12] <Ululus> Patero-ng: hi
[09:17] <mewtwo> hey guys... im trying to mount an encrypted partition from a seperate partition, but when i run ecryptfs-mount-private i just get: ERROR: Encrypted private directory is not setup properly. any help?
[09:17] <Lope> I'm trying to OCR a simple image with a table of numbers. I've tried this on tesseract, I've tried reducing the image down to 6 colors, messing with the brightness and contrast so that the numbers show up boldly etc. I've tried about 20 free online OCR sites. None of them have been able to produce anything useful. http://i.imgur.com/YGr2C9l.png Any ideas?
[09:19] <EriC^^> mewtwo, type lsblk and get the name of the partition sda1 , sda2 etc.
[09:19] <Ben64> Lope: too blurry
[09:19] <Patero-ng> Ululus my friend I like your name
[09:20] <mewtwo> EriC^^: https://bpaste.net/show/ac87030b56b1 so sda1
[09:20] <EriC^^> mewtwo, how big is the partition you're trying to mount?
[09:20] <mewtwo> ~150 gigs
[09:21] <EriC^^> mewtwo, isn't it already mounted at /media.... ?
[09:21] <mewtwo> sorry... im not sure why i said mounted
[09:21] <mewtwo> i mean decrypt
[09:22] <EriC^^> yeah, but it's mounted already, there's nothing in the dir?
[09:22] <EriC^^> mewtwo, type sudo blkid
[09:22] <mewtwo> ok
[09:22] <Patero-ng> gentleman
[09:22] <Patero-ng> guys I have a particular problem, I have both partitions one for OS other for /home however the /home partition doesn't load if i enter as root under system recovery, is there another way to enter as root with the /home partition loaded?
[09:22] <mewtwo> /dev/sda1: UUID="fc9ca35b-8859-43c3-aced-e2af0071359f" TYPE="ext4"
[09:23] <mewtwo> its mounted, but theres nothing in the home dir
[09:23] <Ben64> Patero-ng: mount it yourself once you're in recovery
[09:23] <EriC^^> mewt?wo, ok, what about the rest of the partitions
[09:23] <EriC^^> i have no idea how that question mark went there
[09:23] <mewtwo> oh im sorry i thought we were just talking about sda1
[09:23] <mewtwo> ill paste real quick
[09:24] <mewtwo> https://bpaste.net/show/b71a24c62654
[09:24] <EriC^^> mewtwo, are you sure there's an encrypted partition there?
[09:24] <mewtwo> yes
[09:25] <EriC^^> ok type sudo umount /dev/sda1
[09:25] <mewtwo> ok
[09:25] <EriC^^> wait a sec,
[09:25] <mewtwo> sure
[09:26] <EriC^^> i think you mean an encrypted home dir or something
[09:26] <mewtwo> probablu
[09:26] <mewtwo> *y
[09:26] <EriC^^> because the partition has dirs in it  ( home/dtscode )
[09:26] <EriC^^> so it's mounted and the files are there..
[09:26] <mewtwo> well not anymore but yeah there were
[09:27] <EriC^^> ok, i've no idea..
[09:27] <mewtwo> damn :/
[09:27] <EriC^^> you need to decrypt the encrypted home dir
[09:28] <mewtwo> i know. and when i do that it says not setup properly
[09:28] <EriC^^> i mean i dont know about it, thought you had an encrypted partition
[09:28] <EriC^^> hm
[09:29] <EriC^^> mewtwo, try sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[09:29] <EriC^^> then try ls -la /mnt/home/dtscode and see if there are any files
[09:30] <mewtwo> https://bpaste.net/show/62995fa75ec9
[09:30] <petard_> Hello
[09:30] <petard_> what is the best method to recover deleted files in ubuntu 14.04
[09:31] <Ben64> !recovery | petard_
[09:31] <Ben64> hmm, wrong factoid
[09:32] <Ben64> !undelete | petard_
[09:33] <EriC^^> mewtwo, try ecryptfs-mount-private
[09:33] <mewtwo> ERROR: Encrypted private directory is not setup properly
[09:33] <mewtwo> ok EriC^^ let me ask you this
[09:34] <mewtwo> if i copy all of /home/dtscode/, and reinstall ubuntu, then merge the new /home/ubuntu, then reboot, will it decrypt all of my files?
[09:36] <EriC^^> mewtwo, that's pretty drastic, you can just decrypt it from the live session
[09:36] <EriC^^> mewtwo, and i don't know really
[09:36] <mewtwo> how would i decrypt from the live session?
[09:37] <EriC^^> hold on,
[09:37] <mewtwo> mmk
[09:37] <EriC^^> type sudo ecryptfs-add-passphrase --fnek
[09:37] <mewtwo> ok
[09:38] <EriC^^> i'm reading this btw https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory#Long_way
[09:38] <krad> hello. i tried to upgrade my openvz server from trusty to utopic.. i'm getting this WARNING: this version of the GNU libc requires kernel version
[09:38] <krad> 2.6.32 or later. Please upgrade your kernel before installing
[09:38] <krad> glibc.
[09:39] <mewtwo> EriC^^: thanks
[09:39] <krad> i don't think i can upgrade the kernel since this is an openvz.. what to do
[09:40] <Ben64> krad: contact your provider
[09:41] <krad> that's the only way to go about it?
[09:41] <Ben64> yeah, but they probably won't indulge you
[09:41] <Ben64> you should stick to 14.04, is LTS
[09:43] <krad> oh.  then how can i go back to trusty Ben64?
 Ululus my friend I like your name <<< well that nice, thanks
[09:44] <Ben64> krad: ooh, so you did upgrade : /   .... don't think you can go back
[09:44] <momomo> when I run the command nautilus .. which exectuable is actually exectuted in order for me to alter some global parameter?
[09:45] <Ben64> momomo: what do you mean
[09:47] <krad> Ben64, i ran a few commands.. do-release-upgrade, apt-get update/upgrade etc.. sources.list is pointing to utopic now ..
[09:48] <Number5> You know guys, I just love Ubuntu :D It's a complete system, works well, I just don't understand why people still use MS's Windose. The lesson I learn form GNULinux is, if you share with others, the result is much and much better!
[09:48] <Ben64> krad: from what i remember about openvz stuff, you're stuck on the host's kernel, so i'm not sure what to suggest
[09:49] <Number5> Ben64, you're totally right, and I just like Ubuntu :D
[09:50] <Ben64> Number5: me too
[09:50] <Number5> hahahahaha
[09:59] <momomo> Ben64, when nautilus is launched for whatever reason, by chrome, by command line or whatever, I would like to intercept that

[10:24] <CyborgCygnus> Can you use dd to resize an encrypted partition?
[10:27] <sveinse> Hi. My grub does not always proceed to the default choice (on 14.10). It just sits there waiting for a choice. I've set GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false and GRUB_TIMEOUT=10. Any ideas to what this can be?
[10:27] <sveinse> This is a sorry thing to have on a server, you see

[11:46] <cyberbrai>  i am following this site for fatup my system
[11:46] <cyberbrai> fatup = fastup
[11:47] <cyberbrai> k1l_  dude any suggestion how can i fastup my system
[11:48] <ubuntuser13> cyberbrai: install pyload to speed up sytem.
[11:48] <k1l_> ubuntuser13: "sudo apt-get autoremove &&sudo apt-get autoclean"
[11:49] <cyberbrai> pyload  command for this sudo apt-get install pyload
[11:49] <cyberbrai> ubuntuser13
[11:49] <k1l_> cyberbrai: well, i dont like to "tune up" the system. if you want a more lightweight system use more leightweight programs. like using Lubuntu with lxde etc.
[11:49] <k1l_> cyberbrai: pyload is a download tool. that will not help you
[11:50] <cyberbrai> k1l_ not going for pyload
[11:51] <cyberbrai> k1l_ any suggestion plz if you know
[11:51] <ubuntuser13> kil_: no i can't do it. it gave following error: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10688629/
[11:51] <k1l_> cyberbrai: why do you think you need to tune your system?
[11:51] <vlt> Hello. I installed the package "cryptsetup" on 14.04 LTS. Any idea why it’s not available in initrd.img?
[11:51] <k1l_> ubuntuser13: ok, run "sudo apt-get -f install"
[11:52] <cyberbrai> k1l_  not running fast it's work very slow
[11:52] <cyberbrai> k1l_  day by day performance is low
[11:53] <ubuntuser13> kil_: i did that before. this returned to previous error . no disk space left.
[11:53] <bazhang> cyberbrai, get more ram
[11:53] <bazhang> cyberbrai, 2GB will be slow, no getting around that
[11:53] <k1l_> cyberbrai: then see what programs you run there and what is consuming the power
[11:54] <cyberbrai> k1l_  using top command
[11:54] <bazhang> cyberbrai, more ram, or choose a much lighter DE
[11:54] <k1l_> cyberbrai: and i said already: with not much ram, see if running Lubuntu is better
[11:54] <bazhang> !lubuntu | cyberbrai
[11:54] <bazhang> cyberbrai, sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
[11:55] <k1l_> ubuntuser13: "sudo apt-get autoclean"
[11:55] <cyberbrai> k1l_  Lubuntu  if i install this so any problem with  other data like i am using eclipse
[11:55] <EriC^^> cyberbrai, no
[11:56] <ubuntuser13> kil_:http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10688642/
[11:56] <EriC^^> cyberbrai, programs will run on lubuntu too
[11:57] <k1l_> ubuntuser13: ok, run "sudo apt-get -f install"
[11:57] <cyberbrai> Eric^^  just run the command on terminal
[11:58] <cyberbrai> Eric^^  nothing to do
[11:58] <EriC^^> cyberbrai, yeah run the command, then logout and choose lubuntu from the top right corner of the box where you login
[11:58] <ubuntuser13> kil_: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10688649/
[11:59] <cyberbrai> Eric^^ ok thanks for help
[12:01] <k1l_> ubuntuser13: sorry, need to go afk. see if the system is Readonly or try to free up some space.
[12:02] <ubuntuser13> kil_: Thankyou so so much for help.
[12:03] <Boscop> hi. my headphone jack doesn't appear under sound settings anymore. so i can't set the sound output to headphones. it also doesn't appear in alsamixer. how can i fix this?
[12:04] <ahmed__> #jquery-content
[12:13] <Sequitur> So I just got a pair of USB headphones, and they work fine out of the box, with the exception that the volume control seems odd. At around 30% volume or less they just cut off completely.
[12:15] <nomic> whats that got to do with ubuntu
[12:15] <niee> Hi folks :)) Any ideas how to format my USB Flash Drive? Some program or etc... ?
[12:16] <cfhowlett> niee, gparted
[12:16] <niee> ot tnx cfhowlett :)
[12:16] <cfhowlett> niee, happy2help!
[12:17] <nomic> niee formatting a flash drive through ubuntu is something easy - just google it
[12:17] <Sequitur> I should clarify, those headphones don't have hardware volume control. So I mean the software volume slider, including with media keys or in pavucontrol, etc.
[12:17] <nomic> http://askubuntu.com/questions/22381/how-to-format-a-usb-flash-drive
[12:17] <vlt> Hello. I installed the package "cryptsetup" on 14.04 LTS. Any idea why it’s not available in initrd.img? Anything I can do different with mkinitramfs?
[12:18] <niee> nomic: i try to format whit Disk Utility, but see this error "Error creating partition table: helper exited with exit code 1: Error calling fsync(2) on /dev/sdc: Input/output error
[12:18] <niee> "
[12:18] <Sequitur> I think maybe Pulseaudio just has some poor defaults for how the actual levels are scaled? Less than 35% is completely mute, but more than 60% gets uncomfortably loud.
[12:21] <hateball> Sequitur: you can change the stepping
[12:21] <Sequitur> hateball, where is that setting?
[12:22] <hateball> Sequitur: I dont recall, I can google it. you should be able to change volume using alsamixer tho
[12:22] <hateball> for the time being that is
[12:23] <vlt> How can I force a binary (like cryptsetup) to be included in initrd.img?
[12:23] <Sequitur> Well volume control works, with the exception that it works properly in a narrow band in the middle.
[12:25] <Sequitur> Aha, yeah, the values in alsamixer are correct, the ones in pulseaudio are out of whack
[12:28] <niee> cfhowlett: view this please => http://postimg.org/image/lnx5hwqyz/
[12:29] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:29] <cfhowlett> niee, ok.  and???

[12:35] <k1l_> niee: its the same as you would do it on windows. come one, read what is in the menu and press it
[12:35] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, what method did you use to install ubuntu. Did you create an ext4 partition in unallocated space?
[12:35] <niee> k1l_: cfhowlett http://postimg.org/image/nvh8qak3x/

[12:37] <cfhowlett> Ankit, no. sorry.  this is ubuntu support, not backbox
[12:37] <k1l_> Ankit: please see the backbox support for questions about their setup
[12:37] <cfhowlett> !backbox | Ankit
[12:37] <cfhowlett> niee, you really have to start reading your system messages.  it clearly states what to do next.

[13:01] <chrismyman> Has anybody loaded Intel display drivers in Ubuntu?
[13:01] <BluesKaj> chrismyman, yes
[13:01] <cfhowlett> !details | chrismyman, please don't ask "anybody" questions ...
[13:02] <AfterDarkness_> hello how to ssh to my other pc?
[13:02] <AfterDarkness_> AfterDarkness, is my other pc
[13:02] <AppleCIDR> AfterDarkness_: Enable ssh on other PC, "ssh otherPCsIP"
[13:03] <BluesKaj> chrismyman, sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel , then probly have to reboot , there won't be any output from the  command if the driver loads correctly
[13:03] <chrismyman> I have a Toshiba Laptop that requires Intel display drivers. I made the laptop a Dual boot and I would like to have the display be at a highr resolution
[13:04] <AfterDarkness_> i am not sure if i enabled it AppleCIDR but when i try to ssh otherPcIP nothing happenes
[13:04] <Boscop> hi. my headphone jack doesn't appear under sound settings anymore. so i can't set the sound output to headphones. it also doesn't appear in alsamixer. how can i fix this?
[13:04] <AfterDarkness_> does that mean ssh is not enabled?
[13:04] <onefred> skype for xubuntu 14.04 anyone?
[13:04] <AppleCIDR> AfterDarkness_: Can you ping the other pc's IP?
[13:04] <Pici> AfterDarkness_: did you install it?
[13:04] <cfhowlett> chrismyman, intel has linux graphic support drivers for 14.10.  14.04 driver has been deprecated
[13:04] <AfterDarkness_> ill try
[13:04] <manornk> Hey. I have around 50 000 files in one folder, and i want to copy files that are bigger than 1mb to another folder, how can i do it?
[13:04] <AfterDarkness_> can't ping it
[13:05] <AppleCIDR> AfterDarkness_: Is it on the same network?
[13:05] <AfterDarkness_> i am on my friends house
[13:05] <chrismyman> why does Ubuntu display at 640x480 only?
[13:05] <AfterDarkness_> in*
[13:05] <BluesKaj> chrismyman, lspci -knn | egrep -A 3 'VGA|3D' to check the gpu driver , most likely the i915
[13:06] <cfhowlett> chrismyman, no gpu driver = low resolution
[13:06] <AppleCIDR> AfterDarkness_: And where is the PC you're trying to SSH into?
[13:06] <AfterDarkness_> my home
[13:06] <AppleCIDR> AfterDarkness_: Oh dear
[13:06] <AfterDarkness_> xD
[13:07] <AfterDarkness_> i need to get some files i dont feel like driving back there
[13:07] <AppleCIDR> AfterDarkness_: To do that you'd have to have your home's external IP, then set up port forwarding on your router to forward Port 22 to the IP of the PC you want to SSH into
[13:07] <chrismyman> says driver in use e1000
[13:07] <AfterDarkness_> I see
[13:07] <cfhowlett> chrismyman, NOT intel
[13:07] <manornk> I have around 50 000 files in one folder, and i want to copy files that are bigger than 1mb to another folder, how can i do it?
[13:08] <AfterDarkness_> AppleCIDR, there are two AfterDarkness on this channel if u noticed lol
[13:08] <chrismyman> driver is not intel?
[13:08] <AfterDarkness_> i used this ip address
[13:08] <oldsk00l> does sombudy knows ruberhose ?
[13:08] <cfhowlett> chrismyman, e1000 is not an intel driver
[13:08] <AfterDarkness_> but it seems no port is forwarded to it
[13:08] <chrismyman> how do I change it?
[13:09] <AppleCIDR> AfterDarkness_: Then that's most likely the problem. At least if you are sure that the remote machine has SSH installed
[13:09] <cfhowlett> !details | oldsk00l don't waste time asking "anybody" type questions
[13:10] <BluesKaj> chrismyman, lspci | grep VGA, will show your GPU ,
[13:10] <leo_> арпа
[13:10] <leo_> тут кто?
[13:10] <AfterDarkness_> well AppleCIDR i think i didnt install ssh server on my other pc(this is one has) but that is another problem since i cant even ping the address
[13:11] <AppleCIDR> AfterDarkness_: Well, looks like you know what you gotta do now :)
[13:11] <AfterDarkness_> yup
[13:12] <AfterDarkness_> AppleCIDR, what do you recommend for RDP software?
[13:12] <AppleCIDR> AfterDarkness_: On *nix I like Remmina

[13:25] <Smithgift> cfhowlett: I'm using the us servers while I am in the US, yes.

[13:32] <Arrick> Hey all, I have a 12.04.3  server running a moodle/totara site... I am wondering if I install the latest server version on a new machine, will there be any snags I run into if I export the DB's and copy over files?
[13:32] <cfhowlett> Arrick,
[13:32] <cfhowlett> !server
[13:32] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, check your partitions with gparted, maybe you wiped windows partition
[13:33] <Arrick> cfhowlett, I know the versions arent the same, I know where it is avialable from, I asked because I dont want to run into a huge snag, and if it will be a big hassle, I will download the old version.
[13:33] <cfhowlett> Arrick, suggest you ask the #server channel
[13:34] <Smithgift> cfhowlett: I switched to the server the select best server thing did. it seems to be stalling at the same place, which are right after the english translations.
[13:34] <Arrick> yeah I forgot that it was there, lol
[13:34] <cfhowlett> Smithgift, dude are you even reading my responses
[13:34] <cfhowlett> ?
[13:35] <Smithgift> cfhowlett: I switched to the best server that that option gave me. Did I miss something you said?
[13:35] <cfhowlett> Smithgift, #ubuntu-server
[13:37] <Smithgift> cfhowlett: I think you're confusing me with Arrick, I'm on the desktop edition on my personal laptop.
[13:37] <cfhowlett> Smithgift, doh!  right.  so VERY sorry.
[13:37] <hkrrsx> morning
[13:37] <bazhang> Smithgift, where does the problem occur? is it with the language list
[13:38] <bazhang> Smithgift, if you get rid of that, then try again it should work
[13:38] <cfhowlett> bazhang, can you expand on this a bit?  why would language cause a hang??
[13:39] <bazhang> cfhowlett, long time bug, happens on occasion the /var/lib/ I just need Smithgift to affirm where
[13:40] <Sentra_Bot> .
[13:41] <bazhang> you can pastebin Smithgift or just tell us the single line
[13:41] <Smithgift> bazhang: apt-get update stops connecting successfully (it takes forever to go on) the moment after it hits the trusy/main Translation-en thing.
[13:41] <mustmodify> Can anyone explain how this could happen when I ssh into localhost? https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/142f0ef0aad6fc013725
[13:41] <bazhang> Sentra_Bot, bot?
[13:41] <Sentra_Bot> not
[13:42] <bazhang> Smithgift, thats the one, get rid of that and it should update as normal once again
[13:43] <Smithgift> bazhang: Where do I go to remove it?
[13:44] <Mehrzad_> BluesKaj: Did you say gparted?
[13:44] <bazhang> Smithgift, it gave a directory, correct?
[13:44] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad_, yes
[13:45] <Sycrid> hey guys, has anyone gained the LPIs for Linux? If so, are they worth while? And are they hard to acquire?
[13:45] <bazhang> Sycrid, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:45] <Mehrzad_> I can see windows files using ubuntu itself
[13:45] <Smithgift> This is the exact line before it stalls: "Ign http://ppa.launchpad.net trusty/main Translation-en"
[13:45] <bazhang> Smithgift, ah thats something else
[13:46] <bazhang> ppa-purge that Smithgift
[13:46] <Sycrid> bazhang: no problem. sorry.
[13:46] <bazhang> !ppa-purge | Smithgift
[13:46] <Mehrzad_> BluesKaj: The files are there
[13:47] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad_, then use an app called "boot repair" installed on media, usb or disk,  it will install/restore the grub bootloader
[13:48] <Mehrzad_> Ok

[14:12] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, does grub show the windows OS ?
[14:12] <Mehrzad> I'm reseting and will be back
[14:13] <Smithgift> Have to go. I'll try again later.
[14:13] <Gnone> hi serfs
[14:15] <cfhowlett> Gnone, serfs?  seriously?  needless insults get you added to /ignore list
[14:16] <cfhowlett> vedu, you have to swapon
[14:16] <cfhowlett> !swap > vedu
[14:17] <vedu> cfhowlett: I have used `sudo swapon filename`
[14:18] <Nitrigaur> Running Ubuntu 14.04 64 : Every USB stick I plug in (all of them Fat32 formatted) is mounted, but when I try to create a directory on it, it gives me the Error: Target is read-only, even on USB drives without any protection slider.
[14:19] <cfhowlett> vedu, then you system is presently demanding swap
[14:19] <cfhowlett> No swap.
[14:19] <chotaz_work> How can I turn off automount for a specific device(in this case, my cellphone) on ubuntu? My cellphone has no "Charge-Only" options like many other android phones and I need it to be ignored by ubuntu's filesystem but still be able to charge.
[14:19] <Nitrigaur> The problem is limited to Nautilus only.
[14:20] <DJJeff> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1379346
[14:21] <gaowenguo> hello every one.
[14:22] <Laibsch> My trusty system stopped to download Packages files correctly.  Has this hit anyone else? It looks for Packages but not Packages.gz or .bz2.  Packages doesn't seem to exist anymore
[14:22] <Laibsch> I can no longer do "aptitude update" or "apt-get update"
[14:22] <Nitrigaur> Nautilus won't add directories on plugged in USB drives, claiming that the target is read only, yet I can create directories using my trusty terminal.
[14:23] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: It's still the same
[14:23] <Mehrzad> Windows 7 is not there
[14:26] <Blueking> have som issues with network on mine router box  running ubuntu server + shorewall...  router are online  if disconnect wan cable and reconnect it to router it doesn't get online again and can't ping on the net, pc's on local net can't access net nor one can't see net from router box have to 'service networking restart' to bring it online again,  checked nic's and they seemed to have ip gateway
[14:26] <Blueking> and that... not sure how/where to debug this ?
[14:26] <EriC^^> Laibsch, pastebin the error your getting
[14:27] <Blueking> might be bug with routing setup ?  martian source error ?
[14:28] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, open a terminal, sudo grub-install /dev/sdX , X being the device designation given to your windows partition, grub needs to be installed to the windows mbr, but i'm surprised boot-repair didn't fix that.
[14:28] <Blueking> router worked perfect for more than one year without any issues until last week :/
[14:29] <Laibsch> EriC^^: http://paste.debian.net/163518/
[14:29] <jackhomeas> anyone ?
[14:30] <Pici> jackhomeas: anyone what/
[14:30] <EriC^^> Laibsch, change your mirror, open the dash and type software & sources
[14:31] <EriC^^> *software & upadtes
[14:31] <cfhowlett> jackhomeas, Ms. Cleo has the night off.  You have to actually STATE your issue to get assistance.
[14:31] <Laibsch> EriC^^: I'v already tried four different mirrors
[14:31] <Sentra_Bot> LoL
[14:32] <Laibsch> EriC^^: Check even archive.ubuntu.com, it doesn't have the uncompressed Packages file.
[14:32]  * Blueking twiddles his thumbs impatiently
[14:33]  * Laibsch wonders what prevents the fallback to Packages.bz2
[14:35] <EriC^^> Laibsch, it doesn't say archive.ubuntu in your paste
[14:35] <BluesKaj> Blueking, which router ? also did you try the obvious ...a reboot?
[14:36] <Laibsch> EriC^^: I never said that it does.  What is your point?
[14:36] <antimatroid> say I have /test/content/ and /test/scripts . If from /test/scripts I run "sudo ln -s ../content ./" then /test/scripts/content is created which links to /../content and can be renamed to say /test/scripts/renamedlink. Question: How do I make a local link to the parent directory which isn't called ..?
[14:36] <Laibsch> EriC^^: http://tw.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/restricted/binary-i386/
[14:36] <Laibsch> EriC^^: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/restricted/binary-i386/
[14:36] <Laibsch> EriC^^: http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/restricted/binary-i386/
[14:36] <Laibsch> EriC^^: http://hk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/restricted/binary-i386/
[14:36] <antimatroid> argh, sorry that's not written well
[14:36] <antimatroid> let me rewrite
[14:37] <EriC^^> Laibsch, it sounded like you were asking me to check that even archive doesn't have the packages
[14:38] <EriC^^> Laibsch, anyways i don't see it erroring out on the stuff you just pasted
[14:38] <antimatroid> say I have /test/content/ and /test/scripts/ . If from /test/scripts/ I run "sudo ln -s ../content ./" then /test/scripts/content is created which links to ../content and can be renamed to say /test/scripts/renamedlink while still linking to ../content. Question: How do I make a local link to the parent directory which isn't called ..? Ie. I want /test/scripts/parentlink which links to the parent folder locally?
[14:39] <antimatroid> so basically, how do I create a link which links to the parent folder locally (ie. if I make a copy of test, the copied link will link to the copied parent folder, not the old parent folder)
[14:39] <kani> exit
[14:39] <newman> Hi.. Why I am getting this error "W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-security/main/i18n/Translation-en  Hash Sum mismatch
[14:39] <newman> "
[14:39] <newman> h kindly help
[14:40] <bazhang> that error has been reported at least 3 times in the last hour
[14:41] <EriC^^> bazhang, by the same person?
[14:41] <shake> who ?
[14:41] <bazhang> EriC^^, by 3 people
[14:41] <EriC^^> bazhang, oh
[14:41] <EriC^^> newman, try to change your mirror
[14:41] <k1l_> the translation repos seem to be very flaky recently. just try in a few minutes again
[14:41] <EriC^^> newman, type sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* && sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/*
[14:41] <newman> could you help how to do it please
[14:41] <bazhang> removing that directory and running apt-get update again should fix it
[14:42] <EriC^^> newman, then change your mirror ( open the dash and type software & updates and change the server ), then type sudo apt-get update
[14:43] <bazhang> for some unknown reason the update files get changed to html, which causes the hang
[14:43] <Laibsch1> newman: I think EriC^^ likes to poke in the dark.  Do you happen to use a local cache such as apt-cacher-ng, by chance?
[14:43] <newman> :)
[14:43] <bazhang> Laibsch1, thats not a poke, thats a viable fix
[14:43] <newman> i am using main server Laibsch
[14:43] <newman> EriC^^,
[14:44] <EriC^^> Laibsch1, it's pretty well known that sometimes servers get funky and you get a hash mismatch, and deleting the file in /lists or /lists/partial and updating again fixes it, i'm not making this stuff up..
[14:44] <newman> you mean to give this command? it says " cannot remove ‘/var/lib/apt/lists/partial"
[14:44] <bazhang> Laibsch1, this error has been around for quite a while, so it's not some random poke in the dark
[14:44] <newman> how to do than
[14:44] <Laibsch1> well, it seems you are fond of changing mirrors.  This problem only happened to me when I somehow corrupted the local cache and changing mirrors on a client all day long wouldn't have changed a thing about it.
[14:45] <EriC^^> Laibsch1, yeah but bazhang said it happened to 3 different people, thus why i said to change the mirror
[14:45] <bazhang> Laibsch1, which was why the removal of the files first was warranted
[14:45] <Laibsch> bazhang: you'll get the problem right back if he uses a proxy
[14:45] <bazhang> newman, use sudo with that
[14:45] <Laibsch> (or his upstream does)
[14:46] <Laibsch> and again, no amount of changing the mirror is going to change that
[14:46] <newman> i did sudo bazhang
[14:46] <newman> as given above
[14:46] <bazhang> Laibsch, its not for debate
[14:46] <newman> i changed the server to us
[14:46] <elkadeem> hello
[14:46] <bazhang> hi
[14:47] <elkadeem> who are you?
[14:47] <bazhang> elkadeem, ubuntu support question?
[14:47] <igoryonya> hello, I mount a remote disk by sshfs. when I loose connection, the whole system halts, until I get reconnected and I cannot do anything. everything freezes without the connection. Is it possible to avoid it, make sshfs nonblocking, I guess
[14:47] <Laibsch> bazhang: I'm just pointing out that your "remedy" isn't going to help a single bit IF he is using a proxy.  But again, you guys both seem to like poking in the dark instead of proper analysis.
[14:48] <cfhowlett> elkadeem, this is not a hook-up/socializing channel.  it's ubuntu technical support.
[14:48] <Laibsch> EriC^^: (22:38:04) EriC^^: Laibsch, anyways i don't see it erroring out on the stuff you just pasted
[14:48] <Laibsch> you did not see all those 404s? Really?
[14:48] <linduxed> heello everyone o/
[14:49] <shark> hello
[14:49] <elkadeem> i'm very sorry >>> it is anew distribution for me
[14:49] <EriC^^> Laibsch, i was talking about the stuff you pasted in the channel, please can you just be constructive
[14:49] <EriC^^> or chill
[14:49] <linduxed> i've got a situation where my coworker has somehow manged to render his system unbootable
[14:49] <cfhowlett> linduxed, fun!
[14:49] <linduxed> none of the files are gone, but we need to get it to boot again
[14:49] <linduxed> cfhowlett: yeah, indeed
[14:49] <linduxed> now
[14:50] <linduxed> he's got the kind of setup where /dev/sda1 is /boot, /dev/sda5 is a luks+dm-crypt volume
[14:50] <linduxed> in the encrypted volume there's an LVM system
[14:50] <cfhowlett> linduxed, live session boot, copy his files to safe storage and reinstall his system.  this time, make him a no-privilege desktop user and set the admin account behind a strong password
[14:50] <linduxed> cfhowlett: hahah
[14:50] <Laibsch> EriC^^: the links would have shown you that Packages does not exist anywhere. OK?  Again, no amount of changing the mirror is likely going to change that, given that the master does not have the files.
[14:50] <linduxed> cfhowlett: i was thinking of a simple solution:
[14:51] <igoryonya> hello, I mount a remote disk by sshfs. when I loose connection, the whole system halts, until I get reconnected and I cannot do anything. everything freezes without the connection. Is it possible to avoid it, make sshfs nonblocking, I guess
[14:51] <linduxed> what i need to know is where ubuntu (i'm an arch user) stores the instructions that it should decrypt this drive on boot?
[14:51] <linduxed> in arch, i add a hook in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
[14:51] <linduxed> the hook would be "encrypt"
[14:51] <linduxed> this would allow me to decrypt at boot
[14:52] <cfhowlett> !encryption
[14:52] <linduxed> what in ubuntu is the thing that tells the bootup process that /dev/sda5 is encrypted
[14:52] <linduxed> is it initramfs?
[14:53] <derjanni> Good evening!
[14:54] <derjanni> I have a ubuntu server with 3 network adapters. I want to allow clients using the machine for NAT routing to be able to select through which adapter they want to route their internet traffic. What do you suggest for it?
[14:56] <alex999> ghfgh
[14:57] <Mehrzad> Hi. I have ubuntu on C and windows on D drives.

[15:01] <mikecmpbll> I have a file owned by user_x, and I want to scp it using a cron task to a different server but the ssh keys are set up for user_y -- is there a way i can do this without setting up keys for user_x?
[15:01] <mikecmpbll> oh crap nvm
[15:01]  * mikecmpbll is stupid
[15:03] <tim_> someone, please help
[15:03] <cfhowlett> !ask | tim_
[15:04] <tim_> sorrz
[15:04] <tim_> sorry
[15:04] <k1l_> tim_: you accidntly pressed alt+shift?
[15:05] <tim_> never!  it switches sometimes when visiting internet pages
[15:05] <tim_> nothing happens on that alt+shift
[15:05] <k1l_> see this http://askubuntu.com/questions/68127/how-to-switch-language-keyboard-combination
[15:06] <tim_> em.. i need to make my keyboard to stay fixed to one language! no need shurtcuts
[15:09] <Mehrzad> I have ubuntu on C and windows on D drives. And GRUB doesn't detect windows. What should I do?
[15:10] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, are these separated HDDs or partitions?
[15:10] <BluesKaj> err separate
[15:10] <tim_> k1l_, i have allready walking through this... it does not work! only one input language displayed, marked all windows same langauge..
[15:11] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: separated partitions on the same HDD
[15:11] <cfhowlett> Mehrzad, what does sudo os-prober tell you?  here's mine  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10689494/
[15:12] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, what is the /dev/sdX on the windows partition?
[15:12] <Mehrzad> cfhowlett: it prints nothing
[15:13] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: You mean dev folder?
[15:13] <tim_> hy all.. i got problem with my ubuntu.. keyboard is allways!!! switching to englesh at internet surfing.. please help!!
[15:13] <Mehrzad> There is no dev folders inside the root of the windows partition
[15:15] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, no /dev/sda is usually the windows partition in gparted, since it's normally the first partition on the hard drive
[15:16] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: I have not installed gparted. I'm using the default explorer
[15:17] <NemesisD> hi. both of my machines running 14.04 get a system update dialog daily and attemping to install the updates just freezes the UI, requiring me to have to kill the process
[15:17] <NemesisD> i'm happy to just use apt-get update && apt-get upgrade but that doesn't seem to find any updates. why does the GUI say i have updates but apt won't get them?
[15:18] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad,  run, sudo fdisk -l, in the terminal and pastebin the output
[15:18] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: I found that file, but do not have the permission to read it
[15:18] <BluesKaj> !pastebin
[15:18] <BluesKaj> it's not a file it's partition
[15:19] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10689543/
[15:19] <igoryonya> I mount a remote disk by sshfs. when I loose connection, the whole system halts, until I get reconnected and I cannot do anything. everything freezes without the connection. Is it possible to avoid it, make sshfs nonblocking, I guess
[15:22] <tim_> any1 copy?
[15:22] <cfhowlett> !patience | tim_,
[15:29] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, sudo grub-install /dev/sda2 , then sudo update-grub
[15:30] <cha0t1x> hi i want to install windows alongside ubuntu 14.04 full encrypted (the whole hard drive). does the luks resize and the windows setup will destroy my full encrypted ubuntu installation?
[15:31] <tim_> windows??? people still use that?
[15:31] <cfhowlett> cha0t1x, recommended method is install windows first ...
[15:32] <cha0t1x> cfhowlett, yes but now the ubuntu 14.04 is already installed and I want to avoid re-formatting
[15:32] <cfhowlett> cha0t1x, consider it.  you've a fully encrypted HDD, something that windows will NOT like ...
[15:32] <cha0t1x> cfhowlett, this is true
[15:33] <cha0t1x> cfhowlett, is there an option to install windows in an external bootable disk?
[15:33] <cha0t1x> is there any problem with grub?
[15:33] <cfhowlett> cha0t1x, windows bootloader will wipe out grub = reinstall
[15:34] <cfhowlett> reinstall grub
[15:35] <cha0t1x> cfhowlett, i know that but I want to ask if I keep full encrypted linux as it is, to install windows in a usb hdd external and to boot from it. Is there a prob with grub?
[15:35] <cha0t1x> I will reinstall grub but I want to ask if there is a problem that the disk will be external (usb)
[15:35] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: Isn't /dev/sda2 for swap?
[15:35] <cfhowlett> cha0t1x, should be doable.
[15:36] <cha0t1x> cfhowlett, thanks
[15:36] <BluesKaj> me nope, it's your W95 partition
[15:36] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad,^
[15:37] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, your swap is /dev/sda10
[15:37] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: I'm confused. But ok. I'm doing it
[15:37] <Mehrzad> Ah
[15:40] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10689669/
[15:40] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, why so many partitions, you still have a whole lot of HP partitions there. they're normally for recovery etc but this HDD obviously had a  differnt windows OS on it when you bought the pc
[15:40] <genii> You're trying to install GRUB to a partition
[15:41] <genii> ( as opposed to installing it to an MBR)
[15:41] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: No, I'd made the partitions before
[15:41] <cfhowlett> gpt partitions can easily have more than the usual MBR number
[15:42] <BluesKaj> yeah genii , I thought it mioght work since this is what we're dealing with http://paste.ubuntu.com/10689543/
[15:43] <genii> Hm
[15:43] <BluesKaj> he wiped the mbr with tthe linux install
[15:43] <cfhowlett> BluesKaj, where IS his ubuntu?  no ext4 partitions in sight ...
[15:44] <BluesKaj> cfhowlett, /dev/sda1
[15:44] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: All I can say is I have windows on partition D (the third physical partition)
[15:45] <Mehrzad> The other two are allocated for ubuntu and swap
[15:46] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: Will the "map" work?
[15:47] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, that's not exactly the kind of partitoning I'm used to ...windows should always be first , then linux then swap
[15:48] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: Yes I know, but I hadn't. My bad
[15:48] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, and w95? ...that's a bit ancient
[15:49] <Mehrzad> I never installed windows 95
[15:49] <cfhowlett> BluesKaj, only 20 years old or so ...
[15:49] <hi-tower> hello!
[15:49] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: ^
[15:50] <BluesKaj> genii, why woule these LBAs show W95 ?
[15:50] <BluesKaj> would
[15:50] <hi-tower> I MIGHT have discovered a bug in storebackup package. I would like to get the opinion of people in-the-know before filing a bug report
[15:51] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: That's what were installed before: WinXP on C. Windows 7 on D, Ubuntu and SWAP on E
[15:52] <genii> BluesKaj: Probably a dedicated partition on an OEM system where the Windows Install or Recovery stuff is
[15:52] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: I formatted C in order to install Ubuntu on it
[15:52] <BluesKaj> twell Mehrzad idon't understand your partitions then , something i haven't dealt with before ,, sorry for wasting your time
[15:52] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: No problem and thanks for putting time
[15:53] <BluesKaj> genii, that's what I suspected, but I never keep them , just wipe them clean when I get a new machine and start from scratch
[15:54] <hi-tower> BluesKaj: would you be able to test a storebackup problem?
[15:54] <genii> BluesKaj: I dd the contents off to an external drive normally, in case machine has to go back for repairs it can be put back to factory
[15:55] <BluesKaj> genii, yes I understand that in your situation , that's a wise move
[15:56] <BluesKaj> hi-tower, uhm test ?
[15:57] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: I suspect win7 is installed on sda5. Does this information help?
[15:57] <hi-tower> BluesKaj: well I would like to have someone confirm a bug before submitting it on launchpad
[15:58] <hi-tower> I am absolutely new to Ubuntu but worked on other distros since 1999
[15:59] <BluesKaj> hi-tower, that depends on which ubuntu version etc ...difficult to replicate bugs on different OSs and desktops
[16:00] <hi-tower> BluesKaj: OK this is Kubuntu 14.10 amd64 arch.
[16:01] <xyzwhatever> im looking for a comprehensive list how to set up ubuntu for maximum speed under virtualbox disabling everything that is not absolutely necessary
[16:01] <hi-tower> BluesKaj: It seems like the default config created by storebackup upon package install is incompatible with the cron script
[16:01] <BluesKaj> Mehrzad, do you have important data on windows that requires backup, because 10 partitions is lot for only 2 OSs and swap
[16:01] <reboot_> exuse me?
[16:01] <reboot_> ?
[16:01] <reboot_> can some 1 help me?
[16:01] <cfhowlett> !ask | reboot_
[16:02] <hi-tower> !patience
[16:02] <xyzwhatever> for example how can i turn off this stupid transparency thing when I click on the ubuntu startmenu button
[16:02] <reboot_> how to download all information gathering tools that are in kali linux any comand ????

[16:03] <reboot_> how to download all information gathering tools that are in kali linux any comand ????
[16:03] <Alissa> That's the correct configuration to make a socks proxy for apt-get, right?
[16:03] <reboot_> how to download all information gathering tools that are in kali linux any comand ????
[16:03] <cfhowlett> !reboot_, kali | reboot_
[16:03] <k1l_> reboot_: stop that annoying spam
[16:03] <cfhowlett> !kali | reboot_
[16:03] <gr33n7007h> reboot_: download kali and use the live iso
[16:04] <tgm4883> Can't think of the right searching terminology. When I go into my BIOS and attempt to boot from USB (or even go into the EFI shell) my system starts automatically scrolling? up. It's like a repeating up arrow key
[16:04] <reboot_> how can i creat my own private chanell?
[16:04] <reboot_> how can i creat my own private chanell?
[16:04] <xyzwhatever> yeah go to your own channel talk to yourself
[16:04] <cfhowlett> tgm4883, stuck key?  funky bios?  not ubuntu
[16:04] <cfhowlett> reboot_, stop it
[16:05] <reboot_> help me ...its ok :[
[16:05] <tgm4883> cfhowlett: yea it's a funky little device. Let me swap keyboards
[16:05] <embik> I always wonder why people like that are asking for Kali ... Maybe a 12-years old who wants to "hack" his friends? :|
[16:05] <cfhowlett> reboot_, stop acting silly then.  /join #mychannel
[16:06] <cfhowlett> embik, let's not feed them.  moving on now
[16:06] <embik> yessir
[16:06] <k1l_> reboot_: ask in #freenode
[16:07] <nullbyte_> have removed libdrm-nouveau2 and manager removes all other linked packages how can i restore all of everything that
[16:07] <BluesKaj> tgm4883, turn secure boot off/disable in the uefi/bios
[16:07] <tim_> anything for me yet?
[16:07] <tgm4883> BluesKaj: already off :/
[16:08] <BluesKaj> try legacy mode
[16:08] <tgm4883> There is no legacy mode
[16:08] <BluesKaj> should be in boot
[16:09] <Mehrzad> BluesKaj: On windows 7? No
[16:09] <tgm4883> BluesKaj: I'll check again, but I'm pretty sure this only ships with 32-bit EFI
[16:09] <BluesKaj> 32bit?
[16:09] <cfhowlett> tgm4883, I've NEVER seen a 32 bit efi ...
[16:09] <tgm4883> Yea
[16:10] <tgm4883> The older mac's used to have only a 32-bit EFI and they are common on the windows tablets

[16:32] <madsmile> Hi lel
[16:32] <fabrizziop> b3h3m0th: you could boot from a live cd, chroot into your installation and run update-grub=
[16:33] <b3h3m0th> fabrizziop:  is it possible to fix it from the (initramfs) shell ?
[16:33] <b3h3m0th> Im curious
[16:34] <fabrizziop> b3h3m0th: I can't answer that for you, because I don't know.
[16:36] <b3h3m0th> fabrizziop: okay . thanks for the first solution, the live boot thing :)  I hope that satisfy my primary goal (get this fixed somehow) and I hope to find someone here to satify my secondary goal, to quench my intellectual curiousity :p

[16:53] <saltlake> Does ubuntu server have pnfs support ? Or has anyone successfully got pnfs working on a ubuntu server ?
[16:53] <Blueking> didn't touch router for more than a year before it started bug on me a week ago

[17:03] <tomshreds> Hi folks, I'm using a CDN to share videos online. I'm tracking stats and for 300 video views I shared the file 2615 times for 56gb of bandwidth (file worth 500mb). It seems something is leeching. I've blocked hotlinking but it's still pretty major. Any suggestions? Thanks
[17:03] <jrtappers> tomshreds, Server?
[17:03] <tomshreds> jrtappers nginx+php-fpm+varnish

[17:06] <m0r0n> Hello. Can someone help me with this tutorial on Deluge-Headless? I'm trying to create the startup script but I'm not sure where to locate it. See "Run the Deluge Daemon on startup" here: http://www.havetheknowhow.com/Install-the-software/Install-Deluge-Headless.html
[17:12] <chotaz_work> m0r0n: people at #deluge might be able to help u better.
[17:13] <chotaz_work> m0r0n: more so, you are more likely to find support for software on its own channel channel rather than on the OS channel. since it's the first's responsibility to ensure or not compatibility with said OS :)

Using the ubuntu live CD and boot-repair I was able to fix the windows boot, but now grub won't load at all. What do you recommend to get my ubuntu install working again?
[17:29] <mbeasley_> BluesKaj: right. i have it configured in the profile. it's just that when text is bold, it uses one font and regular, another.
[17:29] <nikola_> I would like to ask you is it possible someone to help me to run windows 8.1 on ubuntu 14.04 without restarting, now i have both on my pc, i am new to linux

[17:34] <nikola_> w0rmie: thank you i will see what is this cause i have no idea
[17:36] <BluesKaj> Blueking, are you using network manager gui or the /etc/network/interfaces file to mange your connections?
[17:36] <w0rmie> nikola_: this is easer than the ubunto documents even you're a beginner, take this road: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_%28software%29

[17:37] <skman> is there a way to make ubuntu keep the iptables configuration?
[17:38] <BluesKaj> Blueking, have you run sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart ?
[17:38] <Blueking> just 'service networking restart'¨
[17:39] <nikola_> w0rmie: this work on Ubuntu 64 bit?
[17:39] <skman> arfter rebooting, ubuntu delets all iptables rules!!!
[17:39] <Blueking> BluesKaj  'service networking restart' brings router back online
[17:39] <hkrrsx> skman: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-do-i-save-iptables-rules-or-settings/
[17:40] <w0rmie> nikola_ : i've used it under SONY VAIO i7 (8cores) 64bits so yes !
[17:40] <BluesKaj> Blueking, oh yeah , forgot init.d is no longer used
[17:40] <tgm4883> skman: how are you configuring the rules?
[17:42] <Blueking> bringing router offline and hook router on net again router remains offline, until reboot or service networking restart
[17:43] <Blueking> BluesKaj (I need to put your nick here every time?  forget to put in nick once a while) bringing router offline and hook router on net again router remains offline, until reboot or service networking restart
[17:43] <skman> thank you very much?

[17:44] <SchrodingersScat> Blueking: it helps to flag with their name so it will highlight them, can maybe miss a few if they are active and not much else going on in channel.
[17:44] <Blueking> I know :)
[17:44] <SchrodingersScat> just confirming your question :)
[17:45] <Blueking> damn kid 'puked' food on me  16 month old
[17:46] <SchrodingersScat> can probably be fixed from a livecd
[17:46] <Blueking> BluesKaj  back in some minutes need to change clothes
[17:47] <BluesKaj> Blueking,  I'm not sure how to deal with your setup, since I haven't seen anything like it before.
[17:48] <Blueking> BluesKaj  so nothing suspicious within ifconfig and ip addr show ?
[17:49] <BluesKaj> Blueking, it looks quite nornal except for the ipv6 addresses

[18:28] <elux> hello.. i just recently realized my ubuntu 14.04 server doesnt come with a swap and its running just mongodb which will consume all of the memory and will need a swap
[18:28] <elux> since mongodb uses mmap'ed files, apparently those will never use the swap (mongo docs)
[18:28] <elux> im trying to figure out an easy way to add a swap to the system now.. and looks like these days i can put a swap in just a file..?
[18:28] <elux> instead of a partition..?
[18:30] <ramose> I need some help, I have dual boot system windows/ubuntu . On ubuntu side I made some changes to /etc/default/grub , set roottimeout to 0 and uuid to Yes

[18:35] <AfterDarkness> ctrl + b in terminal moves cursor to end of the world and ctrl + f moves to the beginning of the word
[18:35] <EriC^^> ramose, why?
[18:35] <ramose> EriC^^ : Now none of my OS's are coming up
